South Africa's main opposition party has merged with a smaller group to jointly challenge the ruling ANC in elections in April.
The presidential candidate of the new coalition is Mamphela Ramphele, a former anti-apartheid activist who was close to Steve Biko, the Black Consciousness leader who died in police custody in 1977. Ms Ramphele, who was also a doctor, academic and World Bank executive, formed her own party last year but struggled to gain political momentum and said the merger with the larger Democratic Alliance was in the country's best interests.
The Democratic Alliance, led by Helen Zille, has been perceived as "too white".
Some South Africans had questioned how Nelson Mandela's death in December would affect the country as political forces seek to harness a national identity forged in the struggle against white rule while addressing increasing worries about the future.
Ms Ramphele told a news conference in Cape Town: "The death of Nelson Mandela has changed many things for South Africa. It has caused us to reflect on our journey over the last 20 years, on the progress we have made, and on the opportunities utilised and lost."
President Jacob Zuma and the ANC, the liberation movement once led by Mr Mandela, are the electoral front-runners but they have lost some support because of corruption, poverty, unemployment and police brutality.

There is a 92mm fan included, with a shroud that clips straight onto the back of this SATA PCB. This is supposed to help cool the hard drives. However, there are only three three small holes in the PCB for air to travel through. The shroud itself is on the large side and is in an unfortunate position – it was not possible to fit a 7900 GTX or X1950 XT-X. Although the cards themselves just fit, there wasn't enough room to plug in the external power. The smaller 7900 GT board was however fine, and the shroud is completely removable to facilitate the larger graphics cards, but this is still an annoyance.
Above the SATA cage, is room for three 5.25in drives, and another three below. One of the drive cages has an adapter allowing for another 3.5in device to be fitted. This is useful for floppy drives, or tape drives, which wouldn't fit into the SATA cage. All of these bays are completely screwless, so fitting a drive takes a matter of seconds.
At the very rear of the case, we have a 120mm fan exhausting air from the case. This is complemented by the CPU cooler duct.
The device in the picture above has two functions. One is to clamp down on the graphics card to stop it moving around and keep vibrations to a minimum. But the other is to funnel fresh air directly to the CPU. Both sides of the duct are spring loaded – this means you'll get a better mate with the CPU cooler and there will be less chance of vibration. The whole panel is adjustable left and right by a considerable amount and the duct can be moved up and down as well. This helps line it up with your motherboard, as there is no standard position for the CPU to be. The duct is quite deep though and will certainly get in the way with more sophisticated CPU coolers.
Going along with the screwless design, putting in a new expansion card requires no tools. Instead there are plastic clips that hold the cards in place. Unlike some designs, these are all independent of each other and if one does happen to break – you can still screw them in to place.
This is a really stylish case with some real thought put in to its design. It would be well suited towards a small server or workstation user. For the kind of person that wants to build their own, the clash between ducting and graphics card power and the limited number of CPU coolers available to work with its ducting system, it starts to fall on its face. On top of this, the pricing seems a little on the high side. However, this is only an RRP and the actual street price may turn out to be a lot lower.

Mourinho handed Super Cup ban for eye poke
MADRID - Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho had been given a two-match ban for poking Barcelona´s assistant coach in the eye during August's Spanish Super Cup, the national football federation (RFEF) said on Wednesday.
Tito Vilanova, Pep Guardiola´s assistant, was given a one-match ban and both he and Mourinho were fined 600 euros. Real and Barca were fined 180 and 90 euros respectively.
The bans will be effective only in the Spanish Super Cup, which is the traditional curtain-raiser to the La Liga season between the league champions and the King's Cup winners.
Television cameras caught Mourinho jabbing his finger into Vilanova´s eye during a huge scuffle between the two teams at the end of the Super Cup second leg on August 17, which Barcelona won. Vilanova responded by cuffing the Portuguese round the back of the head.
A feet-first challenge from Real defender Marcelo on Barca new boy Cesc Fabregas sparked the melee and Marcelo, his German team-mate Mesut Ozil and Barca's Spanish international striker David Villa were all shown red cards.
Barca´s players accused Mourinho afterwards of wrecking Spanish football, while Real blamed the incident on provocations from Barcelona at the Nou Camp.
Both clubs have 10 days to lodge appeals.

ISSN 0263-8290 Full text not archived in this repository. Abstract/SummaryA longitudinal study of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in normal pregnant volunteers demonstrated distinct alterations in maternal fuel utilization as pregnancy progresses. Glucose uptake into maternal adipose tissue and plasma glucose levels were significantly reduced in late pregnancy compared to early pregnancy and post-partum values. Plasma fatty acids, glycerol and ketone levels were elevated in late pregnancy. This confirms the concept of the third trimester as a catabolic phase within the maternal system, and provides support for the view that the insulin resistance of pregnancy may be a compensatory response to overcome the inhibitive effects of metabolites such as fatty acids on peripheral uptake of glucose.

Celebrating a little Victory
I have had one heck of a week, just when you think that a little peace is headed your way you get a week like this. The highlight of my disasters was having my purse, some money, candy and my class layout and supplies stolen out of my car. Today by some miracle my purse was returned to me, via a kind stranger, who found it a half an hour away at the end of a logging road. Miracles can happen and thank you to the man who took the time to look in my purse and return it to me, it has made me feel whole again.
Today I have this layout to share with you, good friends make all the differnce during hard times and each of these gals have held up my sprirts and been an inspiration. My pick me up this week was the arrival of these delicous papers by Cosmo Cricket, I have oogling over them since CHA. I am hoping that the next little while will remove some of the stresses but for right now I am trying to be thankful for all the blessings in my life.
I really liked the stickers and I wanted to give them a bit more dimension, so after placing it on my blue circle I ran the sticker through my cuttle bug folder and got this cool stitch look. This was such an easy technique, I will be trying it again.

What's up with the "Children reach puberty earlier nowadays" I refuse to accept this a plain fact! Kids need to be kids!!
Oh, and I don't play with my Star Wars figures…
Really… I don't.
Not playing with Star Wars figures? *
So there is still 'paying with Lego', – but you can always say, you're planing a brick-film. 😉
* (remebering "Space Balls"?)
…not paying, > pLaying!
(I'm getting old.)
I simply HELP my son construct his StarWars Lego…
Just wait until she is actually 16. That's gunna be one heckuva show.
Believe me it's crossed our minds… 😀
Ugh, I feel ya brother. My daughter is 13 already and we've been putting up with the mood swings (yes THOSE) and the "But everybody else is doing it, why can't I" whining already. And to think she's the well behaved one, let's not EVEN get started about my 9 year old son, 😛
Makes you kind of understand your parents, huh?
Oh yeah, top things off, they just sit back and snicker at their "revenge". Grandparents are so "evil", LOL.
I hit puberty at around 10 and had facial hair in the 5th grade…I think theirs something in the drinking water…

The Mir 24 is the only one I have personal experience with and it's awesome.
Here's a test clip.....
The Zeiss is another solid choice although I haven't had any experience with that glass.
The other two have me curious. I'm going to look them up.

ok...i need some help vintage heads.
This is my list to cover the standard lens sizes for my 7d
1.zenitar 16mm 2.8
2.mir24 f2
3.Supertakumar 50mm 1.4 (i have this already)
4. Helios 40 or 40-2
1. can you guys recommend a 24mm (so i can cover 35mm range on 7d)
2. whats the difference between the helios 40 and 40-2 ?
3. Does anyone know if these lenses listed focus in the same direction? I have a tamron 17-50 and supertakumar 50mm and they both focus in the same direction (nikon way i believe) so it would help to keep things consistent for my brain
Hopefully cutting footage between these lenses wont be noticeable.
After I aquire these lenses...its on to Carl Zeiss Contax/Yashica and Nikon Ai. this will all take a while to aquire but thats the plan.Last edited by jambredz; 08-10-2010 at 08:53 PM.

08-10-2010 09:12 PMHi Jambredz
Of the lenses on your list, I have the Zenitar 16mm, Mir 24 and the Super Takumar 50. The Helios 40 is on my wanted list.
I don't know about the Helios 40, but the Mir24 and Super Tak 50 focus in the same direction as the Nikon lenses, but the Zenitar 16mm focuses in the opposite direction.
For the 24mm range, I have a Nikon 24mm 2.8 that I really like.
I don't know the difference on the Helios 40 stuff, but there is a sweet Helios 40 on ebay right now at a really good price. I have bought lenses from the seller, grizzly33bear and I highly recommend the seller. Here's the link.
hey Mark, thanks alot for the help. I saw the footage u had posted of a wedding with the zenitar on a slider and that was mainly the reason for getting it . I think i'll sacrifice a bit of confusion for that quality and wide angle...unless of course if someone has another suggestion for a lens that focuses the nikon way in the same range and speed
Is the 24mm nikon you refer to the ai version? thanks again.

The seller claims that the yellowed glass "is the much sought-after version [...] that supposedly produces an unusually pleasing boke."

08-10-2010 10:31 PMhe makes it sound like it's a yellow glass 'edition'
Every aspect and/or defect of the lens contributes to a nice bokah :-)
I'd say that dust specks inside vintage lenses gives a fantastic bokah!

08-11-2010 05:20 PMMark pretty much said it all. What speed are you looking at for your 24? You can find Vivitar 24mm f/2 lenses pop up on Ebay from time to time at pretty decent prices (decent being relative....$200 or so). I've heard nothing but great things about old Nikon lenses so if you can find something cheap there, I would go for it.
As for the differences between the Helios 40 and 40-2, I think it comes down to the 40-2 being an M42 mount and the Helios 40 being an older M39 mount. I also hear the 40-2 has better contrast than the 40. I'm in line myself for one of those babies once I get a few other expenses taken care of. It's just a gorgeous portrait lens.
thanks for the replies...f2 is fine for the 24mm...i'll check out that vivitar.
How comes i dont hear you guys talking about Zeiss Contax/yashica? i see them for decent prices...nobody wants to try 'em out? i mean...its Zeiss.
One more question...whats the difference in nikon Ai and AIs?

Apple could discontinue two products in their dwindling iPod line, perhaps as early as next week's media event. Some even believe that the entire iPod line could get the axe… Read the whole story
I've always thought this was bound to happen. My guess is that sooner or later Apple will have only one mobile product line. They might call it Ipods, Iphones, Ipads, Islates, or some other Iname. Basically the only difference will be screen size (and maybe ram and cpu but these won't be obvious to the user). So you'll have basically the same device in 2.5, 3.5, 7, and 10 in models that can each be ordered with or without a phone component. They will all run iOS and have WIFI and run all the apps etc.
I don't have a single reason to own an iPod, and I'm sure many others don't either. My phone can play music just as well, and I'm sure an iPhone is probably better than my andriod at it. And Apple seems to have forgotten about the workout crowd, who won't want to lug a smartphone with them while they run/lift. For us the iPod shuffle was almost perfect, perfect size, perfect capacity, nice strong clip... but oops... no radio. God forbid I listen to something on that thing that didn't come from the iTunes store. So I got a Sansa, which is an iPod shuffle with a tiny screen and a radio.
Agree with the above, Apple should probably keep the shuffle or nano for the runners out there, although I guess those are probably lower margin products for them.
I love my ipod Touch. As I am avoiding paying $1200 a year for a smart phone (or any cell phone), my Ipod Touch has been used very heavily!. I really hope they keep this as there are almost no other products in that category that are not phones.
I live in a large urban city. I always laugh at the ****** who have a smartphone and whip out an ipod next to it, when the smartphone just need an 8-16GB SD card and it will play music as good if not better than the iPod. And with iPhone and awesome Android phones, there is no reason for the existence of the iPod whatsoever. The only niche segment the iPod has is for people who work out at the gym and in developing countries which don't have $199 smartphones on a contract as we do in US. Otherwise, the iPod and iPod touch have been useless for a while.
I think they'll keep two ipod products. The ipod touch is seen as a gateway product to the iphone, so I don't see it going away and the nano will stick around for those going to the gym.
The iPod classic, the product which kick started the Apple insanity, is being discontinued (TBC of course), definitely lasted longer then i thought it would, especially given the way technology has evolved in recent years
I at least want to get my hands on one of those classic models. I remember reading it had 200GB+ with a reasonable price.
I doubt the iPod itself is going away. Also, there is now going to be an Android that is not a phone. In other words, it's the Droid version of an iTouch. It will connect via wi-fi, so you can still download apps, stream content, etc. Not sure how well that will sell, but it's nice to see that someone is going to attempt it.
I'm pretty surprised that the iPod Classic is still selling. Probably it and the Shuffle to go. Anyway, about Android stuff that is not a phone but similar, such as an iTouch, there are many companies already doing that. Archos has done it with the Archos 43 which I have and think is fantastic. Now I don't need a smartphone.
This is so disappointing. Im 17/f and I've owned an ipod touch 32G for a few years now, and was planning on saving up for an ipod classic with the biggest capacity available - now I'm reading there's a good chance they'll be discontinued? I have over 200GB worth of music (which isn't a lot compared to some people), so I wanted an ipod that could act as a hard drive, along with having a large capacity. So much for that. >=(
Ok but why do you need 200GB of music on a device at one time? There is no way you can listen to 200GB of music in 1 day or even 1 week. 40,000 songs fits into 160GB. Even if you have 20,000 songs @ 3 min in length per song on average, that's 1,000 hours (minimum) of music listening, or 41 days!!!!!!!!!!!! Just put the music you'll listen to that month and next month reload new stuff that you need. For most people that's just common sense. You can't decide what albums you want to listen to this week? It only takes 5-10 min to transfer more music to the smartphone. It just makes no sense for 99% of people to pay $250 for an iPod classic and then deal with the inconvenience of carrying a smartphone and a huge iPod classic in another pocket. 16/32GB smartphone + 32GB microSD card is enough for 99% of the population for music. $65 for 32GB. Next year, this will cost half and smartphones will have even more storage memory onboard.
Re: "iPods only represented eight percent of Apple's total revenue" "Only" 8% of how many billions? That's still a mighty nice sum to add to the bottom line. And it's not as if it's stealing from the rest of Apple's product line.
They want to discontinue the 160GB iPod Classic and none of their other devices come anywhere close to matching that capacity. Typical Apple: Doesn't listen to what their customers want, just tells them what they should want and gives that to them instead. For example, the iPhone 5 still doesn't have an 720p HD screen. Apple only cares about the Retina Display, which only cares about pixels per inch. When most other devices has larger screens than the iPhone, of course the PPI numbers will go down compared to the iPhone (though competitor's devices do have 720p HD screens). Apple then says that this means that their screen is better than other devices, which is just not true.

I know it's only January...but March is right around the corner and in the NYC food world that means time for the annual Village Voice Choice Eats. They just announced the third round of participating restaurants--they're up to 35 so far with more on the horizon and I'm willing to bet that before all the restaurants are named this event will be totally sold out...
The VIP tickets for the 6th Annual Choice Eats sold out in a record thirty minutes. Thirty minutes people! And they only have a limited number of general admission tickets left.
Here's who's coming so far...
Black Shack Burger
Bobwhite Lunch and Supper Counter
Brooklyn Cured
Brooklyn Kolache
Butter and Scotch
Del Posto
Dirt Candy
Ditch Plains
Fletcher's Brooklyn Barbecue
Jimmy's No. 43

General Admission tickets are $50 and include "complimentary food and dessert tasting, craft beer pairings, wine & liquor beverages, and entertainment throughout the night." Also, in addition to "Eats" you get "Choice Sweets" tasty dessert morsels from some of the best spots in the city.
A portion of the ticket sales go to Slow Food NYC.
For a food event in the city on this scale with this much good food (and booze), it's seriously a no-brainer. You will get your money's worth. Click here for tickets before they sell out and you're stuck buying pricey scalped ones on Craigslist.

text: For first timers without human guidance, can you get a freshly clear coated paint job to match up with the factory paint using the local auto parts store spray clear coat? The $7.95 can of clear coat I bought went on cloudy even after 3 coats. I tried to buff it clear with a cleaner and it still did not work. Should I purchase a higher grade clear coat?

The recent approach for Micro Focus by Bain Capital, the US private equity group, has intensified the debate about the long-term growth prospects of the British software company.
Bain's preliminary inquiry over the Easter weekend – a precursor to a possible bid worth up to £890m – followed a turbulent year for Micro Focus. The departure last June of Nick Bray, its well-regarded financial director, worried investors, as did last month's resignation of Nigel Clifford after only 11 months as chief executive.
The stock suffered a single-day fall of 26 per cent in February after the management said revenue and earnings for the year to April would be about 10 per cent lower than expected – guidance repeated in a trading update on Monday.
Investor concern, analysts said, is founded on the company's focus on Cobol, one of the oldest programming languages that is increasingly unfashionable.
Companies will look to move their systems away from Cobol, said George O'Connor at Panmure Gordon, due to fears that the number of technicians familiar with the code is declining. "Cobol was the baby boomers' lingua franca," he said. "If you're a young graduate, you won't want to learn Cobol."
However, Cobol remains by far the most widespread code, used in all IBM mainframes and relied upon to some extent by most of the world's biggest companies, including leading banks, utilities and retailers. While its reach is unlikely to expand in the coming years, demand will endure for Micro Focus' software, which updates Cobol-based systems, said Tintin Stormont at Singer Capital.
"Some of these applications are quite core in some of these big enterprises. [Micro Focus] is extending the life of this software ... the only other option would be to replace it with package [off-the-shelf] software, so any competitive advantage they've built into it would be lost," Ms Stormont said. "You lose all that individual tailoring."
That suggests a steady stream of cash-generative sales in the long-term future – potentially boosted as companies enlist Micro Focus's services to help move their data from IBM mainframes to lower-cost servers made by the likes of Dell and Hewlett-Packard.
This strong cash flow makes it attractive fodder for a private equity takeover. Bain is familiar with the software industry: its $65bn (£40bn) portfolio includes enterprise software companies, such as SkillSoft in Ireland and Applied Systems of the US.
In February, the company highlighted its business in automated testing of companies' computer systems, which accounted for a third of turnover in the first half of the financial year, as a central focus for future growth. Kevin Loosemore, who moved to executive chairman from a non-executive chairman role after Mr Clifford's resignation, is expected to continue this strategy.
Alexandra Jarvis, analyst at Peel Hunt, said a quarter of the group's business was in "high-growth testing products" that could begin to reap strong dividends as early as next year.
A Gartner study in January put Micro Focus third in the world by revenues in testing, ahead of Microsoft and Oracle, and behind only IBM and HP. "The company has a solid product line that it has invigorated, [and] it has provided a clear direction for customers," Gartner said.
Bain is believed to be planning a bid worth up to 450p a share, compared with 338p when it made the approach. However, analysts expect the buy-out firm to wait for Micro Focus's next trading statement on Thursday before deciding on the quantum of its bid – or whether to pull out altogether.
Micro Focus has forecast sales of $434m-$442m for the year to April, and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation of $141m-$153m.
"The update will tell us if they've made their numbers or not," Ms Jarvis said. "If not, it provides strength to the ex-growth theory."

there is a trace of sunlight in the way you smile a piece of the moon rests on your eyelids as you sleep your walk shares the meandering path of a river calmed by the presence of gentle wind fallen silent to the earthly pleasures of your silhouette, a backdrop of intense simplicity contrasts sharply, sweetly, with the thoughts that seem to drift through my mind in spite of you.. who would have me smile before the last slit of daylight fades to brilliant beams rather than slip into the unconcious world feeling lost, so lost.. i'm lost without this hope
I'm fly- YEN to da MOooooooooooON! goodnight, moon Ω the cow jumped over the moon Ω stella luna Ω man in the moon Ω la luna, que bella luna Ω Fly me to the moon Ω moondrops Ω carry moonbeams down in a jar Ω

The general tone of the film can be summed up by the very first visual joke; over a helicopter shot of lower Manhattan the words "Hong Kong" are superimposed. This, in a way, is prescient of Rumble in the Bronx, in which the mountains outside of Vancouver, the city where the movie was filmed, are clearly visible.
Some of the better-known jokes (or, at least, ones I remember) from A Fistful of Yen are suggested by these quotes (in no particular order):
"Ah, but you'll get to kill fifty, maybe sixty, people." "We forge our spirits in the traditions of our ancestors!" "We are building a fighting force of extraordinary magnitude." "It must have been a dream of extraordinary magnitude!" "...but it would be wrong." "A toy robot!" "You are a man of extraordinary magnitude." "What was that? This is not a charade. We need total concentration." "He is rough, and toothless." (mouthed) "What the fuck?" "So! You are anxious to see my operation!" "Let's all give Dr. Klahn a great big hand!"
Thank you, A Fistful of Yen, for nearly making me piss my pants laughing innumerable times throughout my childhood. You have our gratitude.

... Danish-style pastries stuffed on purchase with fresh custard ...
Komugi's bread, excellent for crusty loaf lovers. We like the ones with chestnuts & cranberries.
Also worth visiting at Pavilion's Tokyo Street: J.Pop Japanese Popsicles.
J.Pop is linked to the G-Stick gelato that's become a popular fixture at Publika's Ben's Independent Grocer. But what's fresh here seems to be the mini-popsicles of flavors such as wasabi, lavender & miso half-coated in hazelnut & wrapped partly in seaweed (!).
For RM4.90 per mini-pop, a fun treat that's convenient to savor while window-shopping.

Qualities such as dependability and long-lasting quality are what make your vehicle special, which is probably the best reason for owning it. Oil Pump failure can make driving extremely inconvenient for any driver. If your Chevrolet has broken down and needs some replacement parts, then you've come to the right place. Anyone who owns a Chevrolet will agree that nothing but top quality replacement Oil Pump parts are the only parts that belong on their automobile.
Oil pumps on new vehicles are usually cast aluminum with a crankshaft-driven internal gear, while the older ones were simply attached to the distributor and driven by the camshaft. Regardless of the style, it performs the same function: to make sure all your Chevrolet engine's internal components are lubricated. This prevents complete engine failure by pressurizing and sending oil through small passages in the block to the cylinder head and the crankcase. Don't let your failing Chevrolet oil pump threaten your engine with potential disaster... replace it as soon as possible.
Join the thousands of Car Parts Discount customers getting their Chevrolet parts online. Who wants to pay the high price of retail when the best replacement parts are available for your Chevrolet at a discount online?

FLAG-tag, or FLAG octapeptide, is a polypeptide protein tag that can be added to a protein using recombinant DNA technology. It can be used for affinity chromatography, then used to separate recombinant, overexpressed protein from wild-type protein expressed by the host organism. It can also be used in the isolation of protein complexes with multiple subunits.
A FLAG-tag can be used in many different assays that require recognition by an antibody. If there is no antibody against the studied protein, adding a FLAG-tag to this protein allows one to follow the protein with an antibody against the FLAG sequence. Examples are cellular localization studies by immunofluorescence or detection by SDS PAGE protein electrophoresis.
The peptide sequence of the FLAG-tag from the N-terminus to the C-terminus is: DYKDDDDK (1012 Da). It can be used in conjunction with other affinity tags, for example a polyhistidine tag (His-tag), HA-tag or Myc-tag. It can be fused to the C-terminus or the N-terminus of a protein. Some commercially available antibodies (e.g., M1/4E11) recognize the epitope only when it is present at the N-terminus. However, other available antibodies (e.g., M2) are position-insensitive.

Tumor protein, also known as TPT1, is a highly conserved protein among many eukaryotic organisms. Tumor protein is involved in a variety of cellular activities, including microtubule stabilization, calcium-binding activities, and apoptosis. The Mammalian translationally controlled tumour protein (TPT1) (or P23) is a protein which has been found to be preferentially synthesised in cells during the early growth phase of some types of tumour, but which is also expressed in normal cells. It was first identified as a histamine-releasing factor, acting in IgE +-dependent allergic reactions. In addition, TPT1 has been shown to bind to tubulin in the cytoskeleton, has a high affinity for calcium, is the binding target for the antimalarial compound artemisinin, and is induced in vitamin D-dependent apoptosis. TPT1 production is thought to be controlled at the translational as well as the transcriptional level.

Matthews-based Harris Teeter has cut hours at seven of its stores in and around Greensboro, following a string of late-night robberies this year.
The stores affected by the hours change are in High Point, Greensboro and Kernersville. They were formerly open 24 hours, but now will operate from 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. Employees won't have their hours reduced, but some will have to work different shifts, the store's spokeswoman said.
"At this point, there is no indication of why Harris Teeter is chosen, other than Harris Teeter is probably our one grocer in the area that is open 24 hours a day," Greensboro police Capt. Mike Richey told WFMY in Greensboro. "And it is an extremely popular grocery store, so they're easy to find."
Here's an earlier story about the robberies themselves, which are being investigated by police in Winston-Salem, Greensboro and High Point. Authorities are also looking for at least two robbers responsible for a pair of robberies Monday at Harris Teeter stores in Cornelius and Fort Mill.

text: I believe it was. Kind of like tough love both being 'step up and do what's correct'. The people who settled this country knew this. Showing weakness to anyone was not a good idea. My husband is old enough to remember his Dad ( who was older when my husband was born ) telling about carrying a gun. In fact his Dad was sent to get his brother out of a crooked card game when the brother was drinking and therefore didn't catch on to the cheating. My father-in-law was in his late teens when this happened but took care of the problem. Show weakness and you are done for. Our own Prez doesn't get this.

The actor has agreed to be a part of a television project to be directed by Bejoy Nambiar. Although it's a good thing that the Ekk Deewana Tha actor is doing different things, career-wise, the fly in this ointment is that Nambiar is Juhi Babbar's (Prateik's sister) ex-husband
Prateik has been raising his family's hackles for quite some time now. He started off with dropping his surname. And although dad Raj Babbar didn't raise any objections then, we doubt if this time he will be in a mood to forgive his son for what he has done. So when Pratiek agreed to work with the Shaitan director, we wondered about the surge of anger his family must have felt. And although Prateik is claiming that his relationship with Nambiar is going to be out-and-out professional, we don't know if that statement is strong enough to mollify his near and dear ones.
Now that Prateik has landed up in the soup of his own making, we suggest the kid does something supremely sweet to please the Babbar khandaan. And if you hear about something like that, don't forget to update us, guys!

Blessings Various and Sundry
Blessing #1: The day job has kept me busy this week. When I am busy, I am happy, and much more productive with every aspect of my life.
Blessing #2: The Christmas tree is still standing. Barely.
Blessing #3: I had a flare-up of my rheumatoid arthritis Thursday night. I thought I was getting a cold, but it turns out that this is the pattern to my flare-ups - I feel like I'm getting the flu. I get a scratchy throat, terrible fatigue, and body aches. Sure enough, the next day, my feet and hands hurt. But it wasn't nearly on the scale that they have before. The new medication I'm taking is working. Praise the Lord!
Blessing #4: My good friend Yvonne (who is also a writer) invited me to a World War II-set Christmas musical at her church Friday night. It was fantastic. I'm not ashamed to admit I shred a few tears, especially since it was set right when Pearl Harbor was bombed. Sitting in the audience, knowing that it had been exactly 71 years ago that Pearl Harbor was attacked, and watching this play onstage, really hit home for me.
Blessing #5: I was able to get a nice chunk of writing done on the novel yesterday. It's clipping along nicely, and I am more than half-way finished with it.
Blessing #6: My daughter and I watched Despicable Me last night. Love that movie and love hearing my daughter laugh even more.
Blessing #7: I am so very thankful for my friends and family. They are my rock.
Blessing #8: This picture:
This is my husband. In 2000, we had a St. Bernard puppy named Tiny Bear. He grew to be enormous and a beloved part of our family until he passed away a few years ago. But I sometimes think he has been reincarnated into our cat, Slick (yes, the cat who gives me no end of trouble). When Slick was watching my husband cook last weekend, I had to get this snapshot. Putting them side by side like this just makes me laugh.
What blessings are you thankful for today?

I have been blessed with the many years of wisdom I had with my mother. She passed away last month and I am coping. I know she is happy with my father now, and that makes me happy, too.
ReplyDelete IT's the simple blessings in life that are so worthy of counting, even on a daily basis. Too often people look for big blessings and they are not always there. The little ones add up and bringg such joy to life. It's important to give thanks for all of these. Enjoyed the post.
ReplyDeleteGreat reminder about counting ones blessings, something I don't do often enough. Love the last photo!
ReplyDeleteI was blessed with a holiday weekend full of family and friends. I'm very lucky. And I adore the photos of your husband!
ReplyDeleteMelissa, I often think of the song about blessings that Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney sing in White Christmas.
When I count my blessings I always have so much to be thankful for too:) Wonderful post!What a beautiful post! And that last photo, fantastic! That sounds like a Christmas musical right up your alley; my husband and I were shocked it has been 71 years since Pearl Harbor; not that it seems like yesterday, but just 30 or so years ago. Time slips so fast, very good to take stock and realize our blessings; they are tremendous. :)))
ReplyDeleteAh, that pair of photos puts a little lump in my throat as i think of the animal friends we've had come and go. Love to hear your blessing list! I keep a blessing list on a separate blog, but I haven't touch it since July... need to get back into doing that!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post, Melissa! I am thankful for my work, my amazing friends, for singing, my animals and Mr B. Sometimes!
ReplyDeleteI love that picture!! And I absolutely LOVE thankful posts!! So much online (and in person) these days is negative, and I grab onto whatever pieces of joy and gratitude I can find. I think if the internet were more this and less that, we'd be better off!

I got a call from the Gingrich political "foundation" last week- I raked the caller over the coals.
What makes Newt Gingrich still believe he is relevant or believable? He is a confessed adulterer, after accusing anyone to the left of him of being a moral failure (in his own words, full of pathologies) he divorced his first wife by handing her the court papers while in a hospital being treated for cancer (but thanks for visiting) and has been reduced to playing the role of an impotent hatchet man on the chat shows.
Just wait for Michelle Bachman to open her mouth- should be good for a fresh clip on "The Daily Show."
Me, I would check Gomez's birth certificate, and see if he has the right to work here. You never can tell, you know.
Get a life Max. U commie

Peggy Noonan had a timely and topical reaction to Pope Francis' attention getting statement on economics in Saturday's WSJ. Be a Saint, Not a Scrooge:
All this has been portrayed as an attack on free-market economic thinking, but it struck me more as an attack on mindless selfishness, greed and go-with-the-flow acceptance of the unrightness of the world. It made me think of Charles Dickens. The pope's message in part is: Don't be Scrooge. He cared only for money, had no respect for the poor—he thought they should die and decrease the surplus population—wasn't the least bit interested in treating his employees justly or with compassion, and missed out on all the real joy of life, until he wised up.
But is Francis saying more than that? Is he hostile to capitalism, and do we see this hostility in the pointed use of phrases such as "trickle-down," a term the left uses to disparage the idea that created wealth, when invested or spent, spreads and benefits others?
I don't know, I don't think so, and we'll see. I don't think he's saying be a leftist but something more revolutionary and fundamental: Be a saint. Be better, kinder, more serious and loving, and help create systems that reflect good, kind, loving people.
The pope has a way of colorfully saying, through words and actions, that the church is on the side of the poor—the materially and spiritually poor—and always has been. I think he's saying that here: that the Church has a bias for the poor and impatience toward those who would abuse them. And he is speaking not infallibly but as a matter of a worldview rightly shared.
The popes of the modern era have been more or less European social democrats, of the economic left. I've never heard a pope worry about the depressive effects of high tax rates, have you? Or the dangers of high spending? Popes are sometimes geniuses but not economists.
That last point is one that needs to be kept in mind. Popes are in the business of saving souls not prescribing economic policies.

Travel Blogs from Manuel Antonio National Park
It's a Wildlife-Fest!
... iguana came running over to us, which was rather unnerving! Apparently they react to he noise of plastic scrunching, and boy did it run!
We relocated a couple of times before we finished our lunch, iguana harassment is a new one to us!
There were raccoons raiding people's bags and the dustbins. They look cute, but are clearly a real menace.
Bearing in mind it is the most popular national park, both ...
Wildlife at Manuel Antonio Park
Costa Rica is definitely known for its flora and fauna and Manuel Antonio National Park is known as one of the best places to see this. Early in the morning, we took a local bus from Jaco to Quepos, which took about an hour and a half and then another local bus from Quepos to the national park. The public transportation was really simple, comfortable, and inexpensive.
Once we arrived at Manuel Antonio, we bought tickets ...
Costa Rica - Dominical
... Spills and Thrills + lounging on the beach reading and napping -/+ dog sniffing mikes head and scarring him (haha!) - panicking we missed the bus home and will need to pay a butt load to get back to the hostel + chicken on the bus + cold beer + off the beaten track bus ride into San Jose that showed just how beautiful this country truly - 5am wake up call - garbage on the beach + Costa Rican coffee; even mike likes it! He got cappuccino in the airport and is basically in love + good ...

... of the 1980s. The bar was simultaneously hilarious and horrifying, because while as an American I am pretty embarrassed about that sordid piece of our national history (go Google it), the jet's interior made for a damn fine bar in the jungle. I'm just saying.
We had resigned ourselves to never seeing any Costa Rican wildlife on this trip (cats and iguanas aside), and that this had become just a beachy, fun getaway weekend. ...
Vamos a la Playa!
... warm! And the waves are huge! It was so nice to lay out and relax. I was laying on a beach in Costa Rica. Is this real life?!?! Tomorrow were going to hike through Manuel Antonio national park and hopefully see some tropical animals! We will also be catching some rays on the beach. Hey! I turned on the tv today and guess what was on. HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON! In SPANISH! It was so awesome! I thought of those crazy little Howard boys and smiled. That movie is so ...

Between 1960 and 1990 hit man Richard Kuklinski allegedly killed over 100 people. Eventually he was caught, and although he died while serving two life sentences in a New Jersey prison, he described in great detail his deeds in a 1992 HBO documentary:
Now his story is set for the big screen, starring Michael Shannon as Kuklinski, Winona Ryder, Chris Evans and Ray Liotta.
Director Ariel Vromen joins the show to tell us more about the production and why he wanted to make this film.

Blood Pressure Smarts (Page 3)
2. Do Dairy Right
Dairy delivers some sodium, but it's our top source of potassium, and it's rich in calcium, magnesium, whey protein and milk peptides, which synergistically work together to reduce blood pressure. Perhaps that's why people who regularly eat dairy have lower numbers when the doctor straps on that blood pressure cuff. Go low-fat or fat-free: a 2006 Hypertension study found that downing three servings of dairy a day reduced volunteers' hypertension risk by 36 percent, but only for people who ate a diet low in saturated fat.
We've got 28 creative and healthy recipes with yogurt to try.

The Human Revolution mod adds five new races to Distant Worlds and edits one. The standard human race is edited to reflect the background story of this mod, and five more interesting races are also added. This was done because I personally found the human race in DW quite plain and boring. It did not provide for good gameplay, in my opinion, and as an AI adversary seldom proposed any resistance either. That is about to change - the Humans have got company.
The Human Revolution mod gets a proper Distant Worlds Universe update!
Human Revolution for Distant Worlds gets an update for the Shadows expansion.
Here comes yet another extended version of Human Revolution for Distant Worlds Legends. Read more about it here.
Prepare for a whole new human experience in Distant Worlds with these new playable factions!
This is the first version of The Eva Mod for Distant Worlds. Playtesters wanted to balance the race.

Following Ofcom's decision not to investigate the rape scene of episode three, there is yet more controversy to come in Downton Abbey.
In the teaser trailer for episode eight, the final show of the series bar a promised Christmas Special, Lady Mary ushers Lady Rose into her room to reveal that she knows about her illicit romance with black American jazz singer Jack.
Mary asks Rose why she is going to bed early, to which she responds, "I've had rather a tiring day".
Taking her cue, Mary confronts Rose, explaining in a firm but motherly tone, "My dear, all I want is for you not to lose control of your life".
The Countess of Grantham's great niece looks visibly shocked that her secret is out, but stoically shows no shame, arguing, "I love him, and I won't listen to any imperialist nonsense about racial purity and how he should be horse-whipped for daring to dream."
Despite her cousin's protest, the feisty Rose continues on the defensive.
"I'm going to marry him Mary and I don't care what it costs and I won't keep it a secret, not once I've told Mummy," she says defiantly.
"I want to see her face crumble when she finds out."
Downton Abbey continues on Sunday at 9pm on ITV

Power washing concrete surfaces can cause real problems. Relatively inexpensive high-pressure power washing units are commonly available. Some of those units can deliver water at pressures well in excess of 6,000 pounds per second (psi)! Moreover, it is not just high-pressure water that's the problem. The water exits the nozzle at both a high pressure and a high velocity. The resulting momentum is great enough to dislodge not only dirt and debris but also to create flakes, popouts, and even concrete spalls. Good quality concrete will also experience accelerated wear from high-pressure power washing. However, there exists another problem that is not so obvious and requires a little bit more thought. Concrete is both porous and permeable. It is porous because it contains millions of microscopic and submicroscopic voids. Entrained air voids are just one example of the voids within concrete. As concrete hydrates, the water-filled pore space between cement particles will fill up with hydration products thereby decreasing the permeability of the concrete. For good quality concrete, that process takes a matter of days or weeks. For poor quality concrete, that process may never occur. Therefore, what happens at the microscopic level and what we see at the macroscopic level are directly related: the permeability has a huge impact on what happens to concrete that's power washed. Especially because the pores close to the surface (or lack thereof) are the ones that have the greatest exposure to everything that harms the concrete and provide the greatest protection. High quality concrete with a low water to cement ratio (less than 0.45) typically has few capillary pores and is essentially impermeable. Moderate quality concrete with higher water to cement ratios (greater than 0.45) contains a much larger fraction of capillary pores. Close to the surface, this type of pore structure will actually soak up some surface water; similar to a sponge. Power washing will only accelerate this absorption. Poor quality concrete contains many relatively large connected pores that typically allow water to slowly travel through the surface layer and into the concrete, like a sieve. Therefore, power washing creates two potential problems. The first is the aggressive nature of the high pressure and high velocity. We are artificially eroding and abrading the concrete surface. Quite literally we are adding 'wear and tear' that is just not necessary. The second problem is that we may actually fill up pores that are meant to be empty. Since those pores are right at the surface, where we need the best durability, we can be creating a real problem. Not only can saturated surface pores expand as the water freezes, but also they can aid in getting chlorides and other harmful chemicals closer to reinforcing steel. In fact, annual power washing can start a devastating vicious cycle. What's the answer? Most people know that an automatic car wash (or power washer) will put added wear and tear on their car's exterior finish. A hand wash will remove the same amount of dirt without damaging the finish. Concrete surfaces follow the same logic. Gentle brushing, mild cleaners, and low pressure can combine to keep a concrete surface looking and performing as it should.

Latest geekly book buzz is about Paul Allen's "Idea Man," where he was the one who had ideas and Bill Gates was the one to execute them. You don't even have to read between the covers because it's right there in the title. By now, we don't really need to explain that Allen co-founded Microsoft with Bill Gates. At some point Allen was worth almost as many billions as Gates but he lost some along the way. Book reviews zero in on the paragraphs where Allen refers to Gates as some kind of relentless taskmaster, who ruled with a bit of an iron fist and never backed down. Eventually, Allen would leave the company for the world of ideas, while Gates continued to grind out products. Allen would get into sports teams, guitars, yachts and Hollywood stuff, all the while surviving some pretty serious bouts with cancer.
While it might seem to be a terrible thing that Allen is dissing Gates, who has been a loyal friend, it's practically a formula for a success. Well, not so much the dissing as the process. Two friends with a similar vision but with different approaches start a company and at some point they diverge. They are looking for different things or they can no longer work together. It's okay. Intuitively we might prefer to work with like-minded others. But, from a logical standpoint different people and approaches are better for successful brainstorming, process and problem solving. Ideas and execution don't necessarily come from the same place. However, as we might conclude from Paul Allen's book, down the road, things aren't always very pretty. Once the launch is successful and pennies turn into billions – well, it can make for good movie and book fodder.
