BOLINGBROOK – A trio of Bolingbrook High School boys golfers made it through the regional tournament and will compete at the Pekin sectional on Monday.
As a team, the Raiders scored a 352 and finished fifth in the regional behind Neuqua Valley(321), Plainfiled North (325), Yorkville (333) and Oswego (334).
The top three teams earned sectional berths but Bolingbrook will be well-represented at the sectional by three individuals who made the sectional cut and will will compete at Lick Creek Golf Course in Pekin.
Seniors Adam D'Virgilio and Paul Kramolisch and sophomore Jacob Nagel all advanced to the sectional after strong performances at the Blackberry Oaks regional this week.
D'Virgilio scored an 82, Kramolisch carded an 84 and Nagel fired an 87 to move on.
"I was nervous," D'Virgilio said. "I have been so close to the state tournament for three years now and I just want this so bad. I settled down and played some really good golf on the back nine."
Having three sectional qualifiers cements this version of the team as one of the best Bolingbrook has had.
"This is the best team [we have] had in years," head coach Chuck Marik said. "We have four guys who can go low on any given day."

Steps to Take
1. Make a Plan: Determine evacuation routes out of your home; designate meeting places outside your home and your neighborhood; agree on who to call, including out-of-state contacts, after a disaster. The American Red Cross offers details. The state Emergency Management Division provides details for homes, schools, businesses.
2. Assemble an Emergency Kit: Keep food and water on hand for at least five days, and remember to include foods that need minimal cooking and/or refrigeration. Don't forget prescription medications or the needs of your children and pets. See also: packing for special needs.
3. Reduce Hazards: In an earthquake in the United States, more people are injured by the way they decorate than by building collapse. Unsecured pictures, mirrors and bookcases pose a real threat. If something in your home would readily fall and/or break and hurt someone in an earthquake, you should bolt, anchor or strap it down. Visit the earthquake advisor for specific details and take the earthquake knowledge challenge to see how preparedness savvy you are!
4. Learn Skills:
5. Practice Drills: If you have never practiced "drop, cover and hold," the likelihood of you performing this "quake safe" action when there is an earthquake is only about 10 percent. Every time you practice, you double your chances of doing the right thing. Do you know where you and your loved ones would meet in the event of a fire? Do your children know the exit routes?
6. Develop a Family Reunion Plan: The biggest cause of anxiety after a disaster is not knowing if your loved ones are all right. Mobile phone relays can break down or get overloaded, so don't rely on them. Text messages will often go through when cell towers are overwhelmed. Talk with your family now about where you would meet and how you would communicate after a disaster by making a plan. The American Red Cross offers a site called Safe and Well, where family members, friends, and loved ones can log status updates about each other during a large-scale emergency event.

Some places looked like they were having a turd contest . Poop all over the place .

Please contact the winery for further recommendations.
Blend: 90.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9.5% Petite Verdot
Production: 475 Cases
Alcohol: 15.3%
Barrels: 100% French Oak (50% new)
Cellaring: 25-30 years
The 2008 vintage was the 19th bottling of our Seavey Cabernet Sauvignon. It was hand-crafted from 100% Estate fruit, as it has been since our maiden vintage of 1990. Even before applying our pruning and cluster thinning practices, which have been called "extremely aggressive" and "savage" by some, the vineyard's crop was significantly smaller than in previous years. We attribute this, in part, to spring frost and a heat spike in July, which caused our fruit to be smaller in size. Warm temperatures followed through the rest of the growing season providing us with a dense, concentrated yet fully maturated crop. The result was an dense and complex wine which holds great cellaring potential, while being accessible to those palates that enjoy a young wine's structure.
Upon entering your glass, the dark violet, blackened ruby and indigo hues begin to reveal the concentration and depth of character cloaked within each bottle. Cedar, blackberry compote, graphite, dark cocoa, anise, cassis and red rose petals unveil themselves with each swirl of your glass. The firm and tactile tannins provide an underlying support worthy of 25+ years of cellaring.
Enjoy this wine throughout a leisurely meal and experience its full offering as it unfolds in your glass and unveils itself. The long finish delivers the ever present dark fruits and will beckon food back to your palate for a second round.
Robert Parker, Jr.
"One of the strongest wines of the vintage, the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon is a worthy rival to Seavey's gorgeous 2007. A blend of 90.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9.5% Petit Verdot, it was cropped very low and, sadly, the production is a tiny 475 cases (30-40% less than normal). The wine's dense opaque purple color is followed by notes of volcanic ash, burning embers, camphor, blackberries, cassis and cedar. The wine reveals terrific fruit on the attack, a full-bodied mid-palate and a multilayered textural mouthfeel. Dense, rich and pure with noticeable but sweet tannins, this big, formidably endowed Cabernet Sauvignon will age gracefully for 20-25 years.
One of my favorite wineries, Bill Seavey's dry farmed vineyards are tucked back on the hillsides
of Conn Valley east of the Meadowood Resort. Philippe Melka has been the consultant here for
many years and recognizes the challenges of these dry farmed sites. Extraction, richness and
power are never an issue, but taming the tannins is, and Melka has generally done a very fine
job in doing so. The introduction of a second wine, Caravina, has only added to the prestige and
quality of the top wine, the Cabernet Sauvignon. "

It's the last week of our 50 states of incorporation series and we're focusing on the Cowboy State – Wyoming. Smack dab in the middle of the Rockies, Wyoming is America's least populous state, but is easily one of the most beautiful. The vast majority of the land in Wyoming is owned and protected by the Federal Government, and Wyoming is home to the world's first national park, Yellowstone. Wyoming's natural beauty has ensured the state's tourism industry would flourish, and today it generates two billion dollars in state revenue. Along with tourism, Wyoming's historic agricultural and mining industries continue to drive the state's economy – Wyoming is the number one producer of coal in the country. Though largely rural, Wyoming is a great state for a small business, thanks largely to the low cost of doing business. So what does it take to get started there? And how do you incorporate in Wyoming?
How do you start a business in Wyoming?

Collective responsibility
Vernon Small at Stuff reports:
Education Minister Hekia Parata recommended that Wanganui Collegiate should not be integrated into the state system, but she was rolled by her Cabinet colleagues.
If integration had not gone ahead, the private school would have closed last year, documents obtained under the Official Information Act show.
Instead, it will now receive $3.1 million a year from the taxpayer, despite an oversupply of 1400 places in the state school system in the region.
The documents show that, on October 29 last year, Ms Parata recommended to the Cabinet that ministers reject the integration move and take no further action.
However, a second paper two days later shows her recommendation was overruled.
"Following discussion on your proposal, and having taken account of all the information before it, Cabinet subsequently noted the following decision: 'That the Minister of Education intends to agree to the integration of Wanganui Collegiate School into the state network of schools at an estimated cost of $3.1 million per annum . . ."
This is not entirely uncommon, and is sometimes the life of being a Minister. You'll recommend one thing to Cabinet, they'll vote for something else, and as Minister you have to go up and front a decision that you disagree with.
Personally I have no problem with the decision as if Collegiate had closed, then the taxpayer would be having to fund their current pupils in state schools, so saying no would not have saved taxpayers money. That means that if the issue is no longer fiscal, then it should be about quality of education.

Dance concert to feature one-of-a-kind work, Oct. 22
Posted October 12, 2005; 07:02 p.m.
"From the Horse's Mouth: Magical Tales of Real Dancers," a work created by Jamie Cunningham and Tina Croll, will be featured in a performance at 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22, in the Hagan Dance Studio, 185 Nassau St.
The piece celebrates the "heart and history of dance" with dancers
and choreographers of all ages and traditions performing together and
telling their stories. Each production of "From the Horse's Mouth" is
considered a new "chapter" of the piece and is cast to showcase a
specific group of performers -- no two performances are the same.
The Princeton production will feature 24 students, faculty and alumni telling their personal stories, performing a movement of their own choosing and interacting with other dancers. The stories range from humorous to poignant and reveal personal moments of loss, joy, frustration and triumph.
The concert also will include a performance of Cunningham's solo work, "L'Après-Midi d'un Professeur," danced by New York performer Paul Matteson.
The free event, sponsored by the Program in Theater and Dance, will be followed by a discussion and reception.

The following is excerpted from a January 9, 2012 article by Kris B. Mamula, Reporter for the Pittsburgh Business Times:
Takeda Pharmaceutical, Watson Pharmaceuticals and Andrx Labs have sued generic drugmaker Mylan Inc. for patent infringement in connection with its plans to market pioglitazone hydrochloride and extended release metformin hydrochloride tablets, Canonsburg-based Mylan announced Monday.
The two drugs are ingredients in Actoplus Met XR, which is prescribed to control blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. Two common strengths of the drug had combined sales of approximately $21.4 million for the year ending Sept. 30, according to IMS Health, a Danbury Conn.-based trade group.
In a 10-count civil lawsuit filed Jan. 3, Takeda, Watson and Andrx allege Mylan's generic equivalent product infringes on patents that expire in 2016, 2021 and 2026.

Homocystinuria is an inherited disorder that affects the
Cystathionine beta synthase deficiency
Homocystinuria is inherited in families as an autosomal recessive trait. This means that the child must inherit the non-working gene from both parents to be seriously affected.
Homocystinuria has several features in common with Marfan syndrome, including joint and eye changes.
Newborn infants appear healthy. Early symptoms, if present at all, are not obvious.
Symptoms may occur as mildly delayed development or
Other symptoms include:
The health care provider may notice that the child is tall and thin.
Other signs include:
If there is poor or double vision, an ophthalmologist should perform a dilated eye exam to look for dislocation of the lens or nearsightedness.
There may be a history of blood clots. Intellectual disability, slightly low IQ, or mental illness are common.
There is no cure for homocystinuria. However, just under half of people respond to high doses of vitamin B6 (also known as pyridoxine).
Those who do respond will need to take vitamin B6 supplements for the rest of their lives. Those who do not respond will need to eat a low-methionine diet. Most will need to be treated with trimethylglycine (a medication also known as betaine).
Neither a low-methionine diet nor medication will improve existing intellectual disability. Medication and diet should be closely supervised by a physician who has experience treating homocystinuria.
Taking a folic acid supplement and adding cysteine (an amino acid) to the diet are helpful.
Although no cure exists for homocystinuria, vitamin B6 therapy can help about half of people affected by the condition.
If the diagnosis is made while a patient is young, starting a low-methionine diet quickly can prevent some intellectual disability and other complications of the disease. For this reason, some states screen for homocystinuria in all newborns.
Patients whose blood homocysteine levels continue to rise are at increased risk for blood clots. Clots can cause serious medical problems and shorten lifespan.
Most serious complications result from blood clots. These episodes can be life threatening.
Dislocated lenses of the eyes can seriously damage vision. Lens replacement surgery should be considered.
Intellectual disability is a serious consequence of the disease. However, it can be reduced if diagnosed early.
Call your health care provider if you or a family member shows symptoms of this disorder, especially if you have a family history of homocystinuria. Also call if you have a family history and are planning to have children.
Genetic counseling is recommended for people with a family history of homocystinuria who want to have children. Intrauterine diagnosis of homocystinuria is available. This involves culturing amniotic cells or chorionic villi to test for cystathionine synthase (the enzyme that is missing in homocystinuria).
If there are known gene mutations in the parents or family, samples from

March 12: Mike Zambidis vs. Ali Gunyar
- Written by Dave Walsh
New fight news coming out of Greece: On March 12 in Athens it will be "Iron" Mike Zambidis vs. Ali Gunyar. The two are headlining a show called Iron Challenge. No other fights are yet announced.
This is a big fight for both men. For Zambidis, this is a chance to continue to reestablish himself as a relevant name in the 70kg ranks. Two years ago, it looked like Zambo's time at the top might have been done. But he turned that around in 2010, putting together a 4 fight win streak over all strong names (Dzhabar Askerov, Warren Stevelmans, Chahid Oulad El Hadj, Yuichiro Nagashima) and ending the year as the first man in K-1 MAX to actually give champ Giorgio Petrosyan a challenge. Oh, and along the way he just happened to turn in one of the greatest fights in K-1 MAX history, the 2010 LiverKick.com Fight of the Year against Chahid. He's pulled himself all the way back up to #11 in our rankings, which is a huge swing from where he was not long ago. A win over Gunyar says that he's all the way back, but a loss here will cause some to question if 2010 was an anomaly for the popular veteran fighter.
For Ali Gunyar, this is a chance to put his name in there with the real players in this division. The veteran fighter has faced many of the big names at 70kg, including Albert Kraus and Gago Drago among others, although he has often come up short in these fights. In 2008 and 2009 he put together some solid wins, scoring victories over Chahid Oulad El Hadj, Virgil Kalakoda, and more. He's the kind of skilled, traveled fighter that could give Zambidis a challenge, and while he's the underdog here, this is not a gimme for Zambidis.
As is always the case when Zambidis fights, he'll give up the height and reach to Gunyar, but will make up for it with an advantage in power. In the end, I think that power and resilience, combined with the thrill of fighting in front of the Greek fans that treat him as a national hero, will give Zambidis the edge here.

Bleeding on the 2nd Trimester of Pregnancy
I was on my way home from work, tired from walking up and down from a two-story building, when I felt a sudden gush of blood coming out from me. My husband rushed me to the hospital and I was given immediate care. I didn't feel any abdominal pain or cramping. Laboratory tests were done such as urinalysis and complete blood count. I was diagnosed to have a urinary tract infection. Other than that, my doctor requested the staff nurses for me to have an ultrasound to check if my baby is doing good inside. The placenta was intact and it was on the right position on the uterus. Nothing unusual was seen. I was then confined for two days under close monitoring and complete bed rest. I was given medications; Amoxicillin for my infection; and Isoxilan to control the uterine contractions. My doctor said that I was having Threatened Abortion and did not further explain it. If it was indeed a threatened miscarriage, why did I not feel any pain from my abdomen?

I found this article on the site that may help answer your questions Bleeding in Early Pregnancy it explains that there may or may not be pain associated with a Thretened Abortion as well as some other information you may find helpful.
How are you feeling now?
3rd February 2012 11:40 AM #3
You do not necessarily feel pain before vaginal bleeding. Bleeding can be the first sign of a threatened miscarriage. FYI - urinary tract infections can cause miscarriage. This is why pregnant women are (or should be) screened in early pregnancy. Are you taking cranberry tablets? These can help prevent future urinary tract infections (and can help you get over the current infection). Make sure you take the full course of antibiotics. As antibiotics can kill good bacteria, as well as the bacteria that is causing your infection, - it is a great idea to take some probiotics to help rebalance your body.

Thank you for the advice. It's only now that I knew that urinary tract infections can be a factor of miscarriage. Aside from the antibiotics, I always make sure that I drink lots of fluids such as water and cranberry juice which is indeed I find very helpful for me.

What could be the reason/s for spotting/slight bleeding? I actually have experienced this twice during this pregnancy, my third. I didn't have this before with my previous two pregnancies. Is this something that I should be alarmed of?
26th May 2012 06:11 AM #7
Anytime you have bleeding you should contact your midwife or doctor to let them know so that they can help you decide whether it's something that needs attention.
Some women do have slight bleeding/spotting at different times during their pregnancies, and I would guess that sometimes it's hormonal related. Your hormones change a LOT during pregnancy in order to support the pregnancy and to prepare for birth. This can be threatening to the baby or it can just be slight and non-threatening.
That's about all I know, other than sometimes falling can cause bleeding or any kind of trauma to the body - even exercising more than usual or doing a different exercise than you're used to can cause bleeding. Best to choose your care provider wisely and then always check with her if you have any concerns at all.
Warm regards,

The S&P 500 posted its second largest drop this year on Wednesday, on weakness in Europe and a lingering bad aftertaste from Tuesday's release of Fed minutes showing reluctance by FOMC members to embark on QE3.
A Spanish bond sale drew less interest than expected and sent yields on Spain's notes to 5.71% from 5.45%. Bad news out of Europe seemed to overshadow a relatively strong reading from the ADP private payrolls report, which indicated private employment grew by 209,000. The government's March employment stats are due out Friday. The S&P 500and Dow were both off about 1%, with weakness in materials, energy and financial stocks, among other sectors.
The price of oil also fell, with Nymex crude futures declining 2.4% to $101.47 per barrel. U.S. stockpiles climbed by 9 million barrels, versus analysts' expectations for a 1.9-million-barrel increase. Oil futures fell below the 100-day moving average, a sign they could continue to fall, the Wall Street Journal noted.

National Center for Computational Sciences
The National Center for Computational Sciences (NCCS), formed in 1992, is home to two of Oak Ridge National Laboratory's (ORNL's) high-performance computing projects—the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) and the National Climate-Computing Research Center (NCRC).
The OLCF (www.olcf.ornl.gov) was established at ORNL in 2004 with the mission of standing up a supercomputer 100 times more powerful than the leading systems of the day. The center delivered on that promise with Jaguar, a Cray XT system, which became the world's most powerful supercomputer in June 2010.
Now, the OLCF has unveiled Titan, a Cray XK7 system with a speed of 27 petaflops, ranked the world's fastest in November 2012. Titan is unique among its peers due to its hybrid architecture—a combination of GPUs, traditionally used in video games, and the more conventional central processing units (CPUs) that have served as number crunchers in computers for decades. The complimentary combination of CPUs and GPUs will allow Titan to perform more computing operations using less power than previous generations of high-performance computers.
The NCRC (http://www.ncrc.gov/) was formed in 2010 as a partnership between ORNL and the National Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration (NOAA). The center houses Gaea, a Cray XE6 supercomputer with a speed in excess of 1 petaflop, dedicated to climate science conducted by NOAA researchers.
ORNL's supercomputing program has grown from humble beginnings to deliver the most powerful systems ever seen. On the way, it is helping researchers deliver practical breakthroughs and new scientific knowledge in climate, materials, nuclear science, and a wide range of other disciplines.

Patrice Quarteron returned last weekend with some brutal elbows
- Written by Rian Scalia
Patrice Quarteron is that French kickboxer that you may or may not know who is notorious for his beef with Jerome Le Banner over the years. They don't like each other and Quarteron has called out Le Banner in the past, along with calling out Cheick Kongo in the center of the ring during a live event. He's 33 and barely fights these days, not having fought in 2010 and only fighting once in 2011, but he returned to the ring on Saturday against Frederic Sinistra in France. 31 of his 34 wins are by KO and like most of his wins, Quarteron put on a violent display with some vicious elbows. I wouldn't mind seeing him fight more. Check out the video.

- Description
On the roof of the Milan Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Milano; Milanese: Domm de Milan) is the cathedral church of Milan in Lombardy, northern Italy. It is the seat of the Archbishop of Milan, currently Cardinal Dionigi Tettamanzi.

Thank you Jimmy. See the same panorama here as spherical image: www.360cities.net/image/on-the-roo f-cathedral-duomo-di-milano-italy There you can see the refection much better. Basically I used the device to rotate my camera on top of it as I was not allowed to carry the tripod on the roof.
literally a wonderful gigapan - I like the reflections best - our effort at capturing reflections - gigapan.org/gigapans/36622/
a pleasure to view.
Read this article, seems there are some ways of manipulating the weather, even I did not use any of this methods. The weather god across the border www.indianexpress.com/news/the-wea ther-god-across-the-border/252497 /
Tel me the procedure and how much the want for good weather.
Sure I did book the weather. For what other reason would I climb on top of the Cathedral?
Seems you have booked beautiful weather for most of your pics. And impressive again, how you did it 'freehand'
You can view it here with the Quicktime player: gigapanbot.de/panogalerie/index.ph p?datei=dom-dach&region=Italy&vers ion=Quicktime
What a pity this player is not able to view spherical panoramas...

Folded and glued like free-standing 'point of a sale' advertisements, hundreds of crisp, white cardboard cut-outs make up the floor installation Bonsai landscape. The objects are precisely placed so they turn, robot-like, in strictly controlled conformity to each other. From one particular viewpoint the viewer sees a dense, miniature forest of repetitive, tree-like imagery; from the opposite view the folds create an intricate panorama of cloned geometry that transforms and shifts like a tonal animation as the viewer moves around the ensemble.
There are three protagonists. Scattered throughout a forest of bonsai trees are images of an inscrutable rock in dialogue with a fire hydrant.
Together the components inscribe a shape on the gallery floor, reminiscent of the monoculture of commercial forestry, configured to map the shape of the 2003 bushfires in and around Canberra.
The bonsai image, nature fictionalised, is derived from a photograph of a grove of trees I noticed growing along a gully on a hillside in Utah, in the United States. The fire hydrant and rock are someone's valiant attempt at 'urban landscaping' in a vast, desert-like car park nearby.
Together these images suggest that, like Leonardo da Vinci's stains on a wall, meaning or narrative can be ascribed to anything our imaginations care to interpret. They remind us that nature is an economic unit, a throwaway consumable. It is also culturalised, destructive, exoticised and metaphysical. It is a biological system that we inhabit as deluded animals, human frailty 'in control'.

First published in Portuguese in Folha de Sao Paulo.
The presidential campaign's foreign policy debates aren't scheduled for another two weeks, but unless Obama has another bad night, his record makes it tough for Romney to carve out a conservative alternative. Why? In foreign policy, Obama is the Republican candidate.
Drone strikes, killing Osama bin Laden, counterinsurgency, a surge in Afghanistan, the toughest sanctions ever on Iran, unyielding (despite Netanyahu's claim otherwise) toward Israel, containment in Asia, free trade agreements, and missed opportunities in Latin America because of the usual ideological fixations: even if progressives no longer recognize him as one of their own, these features of Obama's presidency give it appeal across party lines.
Benghazi aside, Obama's record has put to rest the myth, perpetuated by the right wing of the GOP, that Democrats are weak on national security. The political effect for this election is evident already. With the race now in its final weeks, to broaden his appeal Romney has moved to the center, away from the extremes of the primary season. On domestic policy he now talks implausibly about protecting the middle class and promises not to cut taxes for the rich. But in foreign policy he can't distinguish himself by moving to the center, because the center is now firmly held by his rival.
And running to the president's right would mean bumping directly into the legacy of George W. Bush. The American public has no taste (or money) for another large-scale intervention a la Iraq. And although Americans are disappointed with Obama in many ways, they do not want to return to Bush-era global animus, particularly from our allies—the kind that surged against the United States because of W's contempt for international law and institutions, and his administration's use of torture.
The divisions among Romney's foreign policy advisors reflect this conundrum. The realist contingent is embodied by Robert Zoellick, who served as USTR, deputy secretary of state, and until recently, and representing President Obama, as president of the World Bank. The other camp is populated by the crowd (minus Condoleezza Rice) who brought us the war in Iraq and its messy aftermath, embodied best by John Bolton, who helped concoct the fake WMD argument. The split is not new. But it is made far more irreparable, and politically problematic, by what is now a complete blurring of the lines between internationalists in the Republican Party and their counterparts working for Obama.
Perhaps it is no accident that the candidate who has embodied so many different political identities would be unable to carve out a distinct set of ideas in foreign policy. As if to make that very point, the closest Romney has come to defining himself against Obama is to invoke the 20th century legacy of General George Marshall, Secretary of State under a Democratic president, Harry S. Truman.

$2.27's the cheapest non-Costco around here. Costco is a "savings" at $2.12.
$2.27's the cheapest non-Costco around here. Costco is a "savings" at $2.12.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
It still hasn't passed the $2 mark but it's only a matter of time. It goes up from $1.73 to $1.89 for a day or two then creeps down again. It's $1.85 right now.
This is deflation, so not good. Oil prices down, gas going up.
Star Wars & GI Joe Customs
HAVES: HK-50 Head, Capt Typho & GI Joe fodder available still
Wants:L8-L9 Head, YVH-1 Complete (as possible),R7-T1 Complete (as possible),R7-Z0 Complete (as possible)
I actually saw 1.69 today. I have a 10-cent off per gallon discount card that I need to use before the end of the month so hopefully the price will hold until tomorrow.
Thankfully, this has been a quiet thread.....which means "no news is good news".
Prices have held steady in may area around the $2.30-2.40 range for regular for quite a while now.
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Hovering between $1.80 and $2.10 here.
thanks Chux Turbo LBC Bobafrett Mtriv73 Rjarvis JF96 JT JMG FB Rogue2 Tycho Slicker Deoxy Caesar JontheJedi JJReason Brandon Solo JMS UK for great deals.
SSG Pro Football Pick em and Bowl Pick em Champ 2006. 2007 NCAA Bracket Champ
#24 - Gone but not forgotten
Last two times I filled up (at Costco, a good $.10-.15 less than most stations 'round here) it was $2.18. Mostly I see $2.29-2.35.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
I filled up for 1.88 Friday afternoon. That was with a 10-cent off per gallon discount card. It's been around two dollars here, which is still 50-to-60 cents higher than it should be.
Gas went up 5% in the last 4 weeks, it's hanging around $2.30 range here. I expect it'll be back to $4 by summer.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Filled up for $2.17 two nights ago. Still much better than 4 bucks.
You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!

I keep a scrapbook folder of things I want to buy, kind of a collections of "objects of desire". Actually the folder just serves as long term storage for things that I think I want, but actually don't need. By cutting out pages of magazines and articles and putting them in the folder I can forget about them without having to actually ignore them. It's the same pricipal as my Tivo; where Tivo happily watches lots of TV for me, TV that I never get around to watching, but feel happier that I'm not ignoring it. This all sounds very much like some monk from a Douglas Adams book, I must read that one again. Anyway Tivo currently is pretty full with around 20 episodes of "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" which I kind of lost interest in after finding that the UK version wouldn't come up to Scotland.
Anyway, on Friday night I went through the folder and found that I'd actually bought some of the things in the folder without realising it -- an inflatable Dalek and a new TV. I also found some cuttings of DVD's that sounded interesting. I never normally get around to watching DVD's, but we went out and I bought and watched "I heart Huckabees" and "Adaptation", both movies that seemed worth wasting a few hours watching, and both were. Also today did a bit of geocaching to get back into it after a short break getting to 100 caches. (what could top the Moose geocache at Linuxtag in Germany?)
So in all it's been a productive weekend, although I wasted an hour or two drawing and then scrapping a thermometer widget in Perl/Tk for tablets that control my home automation system. I'm no graphic designer :(

Have you said "wow" out loud yet. I hope so. Because this is a very long hair do to do. So get a good movie going and have a girl that has been desperate for a good hair do after weeks of daddy pony tails. Beans was ripe for the pickin'. So we attempted this one today. First thing you are going to do is make your braids. There is no reason to go all the way back. Stop in the back, but don't bother going to the very bottom of her hair. And to keep the other hair out of the way while you are working just use rubber bands or clips to hold it back.I ended up with seven. It will be different if you are working on a bigger head, or a smaller head. So don't focus on the numbers to much.Next you will add the ribbon by following this link. And on a side note I know some of my links from when I switched over don't work. I will be trying to fix those over the next few weeks. Very sorry about that. Anyways.
A little closer look while Beans goofs off for the camera!
Pretty girl.

My Star Wars Fan Film: The Lazy Jedi
I'm not interested in any new shows unless they take place between ANH and ROTJ. Maybe something that takes place immediately after ROTJ; but it really depends on the story.
What eras have been covered by TV shows so far?
Droids - roughly between ROTS and ANH
Ewoks - before ANH and before the Ewok films
Clone Wars (both versions) between Ep2 and 3
Ewok Adventure/Battle for Endor - before ANH
Holiday Special - I'm assuming this one doesn't count, but between ANH and ESB.
One more example of how Disney is going to ruin this all.
I think that these new story arcs will be shown on the Disney XD channel. As for this new series... could this be a KOTOR series? If so, cool!
I want New Jedi Order So we see Han Luke and Leia back in action with Jaina Jacen and Anakin.
I think stuff set between A New Hope and Return of the Jedi would bore me.
I hope none of it has to do with the expanded universe.
I think a KOTOR series could be cool. They wouldn't exactly have to start from scratch seeing as how some pre vis and digital models will exist from the game.
Between ANH and ROJ would bore me, too.
With E7, 8 and 9 coming I think an earlier time is more likely.
BAD needs: HK-50 torso, right arm and head
YVH-1 head

Disney disgusts me.... We will probably Never see detours now. Secondly Clone Wars Has been something that allowed me and my son to bond so well over the years. Of course nothing lasts forever and in the hands of Disney nothing good lasts period. Still, regardless if George wants to retire or not, the fact that he had such a stance against industry and for his own autonomy in filmmaking that I Still surprised that he would sacrifice his creation to the corrupt w.o.e.that are Disney. RIP Star Wars..........
Omg, I'm just so angry and disgusted over all of this, I'm actually in awe over myself right about how truly angry I am!

I'll be working but for anyone who's off tomorrow that lives in Miami....Dan Sileo (want to punch him in the face) will be broadcasting his show live at Buffalo Wild Wings at Sunset place. Cool thing about it is that he will be joined by Kosar, Torretta and other Canes.
Go Hurricanes tonight!
Golden is still on these ****ty refs...
Good lord, its like the replacement refs are out there.
Geez, Morris looks like complete **** out there with the injured ankle and hip...
The run D is probably the worst Ive ever seen in my years of watching football.

I agree with you Bel-Cam, the mix of funny and serious is what makes me love Bones, House, and The Mentalist. I quit the CSI and CSI Miami series because I enjoyed these other shows more. They are just more entertaining.
It is a delicate balance though... Too much drama and it becomes a soap opera and too much funny and you lose the good story lines it seems. These shows do a great job of it.

Designer Tidbits: Sandy Gervais
Q: Where did you find your original inspiration for Soho Chic?
A: A trip to New York and the neighborhood of SoHo.
Q: Tell us about your background. How did you get into the fabric and quilting industry?
A: I wanted to design greeting cards but my high school counselor did not think an A in art class made you an artist. It took me 7 years before I decided to go against the counselor's advice and start a greeting card company – My Dream Designs. I later started incorporating the card images into small quilted wall hangings. I then turned the quilts into patterns and my Pieces From My Heart pattern company was born. I showed these patterns at International Quilt Market in St. Louis years ago, where I was discovered by Moda Fabrics.
Q: What projects do you hope to see using Soho Chic? Quilts, apparel, accessories, home décor projects?
A: I feel like SoHo Chic will work well in all aspects of the sewing/quilting/fashion world. I think Joy's dress shows that it will work well for fashion.
Q: Tell us about your background. How did you learn to sew, quilt, and design fabric?
A: My mother taught me to sew clothes at a very young age. I did not take up quilting until shortly before I started designing fabric. I still like to make clothing. I wish I had more time to sew clothes. Sewing clothes that fit perfectly is very time consuming. It is all about the fit.
Q: What are some blocks or obstacles you encounter in your creativity, and how do you get past them?
A: I often turn to chocolate to ease my artist block!
Q: What is your favorite print in the collection?
A: I really like the Ovals print in leaf and teal. It is a recreation of my original "cheerio" print.
Q: What do you plan to make using Soho Chic?
A: I have already made 7 SoHo quilts. My daughter would like to do some fabric in embroidery hoops for her walls – I think we will use SoHo Chic.

Magic-lantern show lights up Frist theater, Feb. 7
Posted January 28, 2003; 11:35 a.m.
The American Magic Lantern Theater will present a "Victorian Valentine Show" in the Frist Campus Center Theatre at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 7.
The performance will recreate theatrical Victorian productions using a lantern from the 1890s and antique slides. It also includes a magic-lantern dance originated by early modern-dance pioneer Loie Fuller at the turn of the century, which will be recreated by New York dance historian and choreographer Jody Sperling.
Following the magic-lantern show and dance, Terry Borton, the producer of American Magic Lantern Theater, will deliver an illustrated lecture demonstrating film techniques first used in lantern shows.
The production is sponsored by the Cotsen Children's Library , the Frist Campus Center and the Program in Theater and Dance. The lantern show and dance are recommended for general audiences, with the lecture for older children and adults.
Admission is free, but seats are limited. To reserve seats, call the Frist ticket office at (609) 258-1742.
Children ages 6 to 12 who want to learn more about magic lanterns can sign up for one of two workshops that will be offered at 10 a.m. and noon Saturday, Feb. 8, in the gallery of the Cotsen Children's Library. To register, call the Cotsen program coordinator at (609) 258-2697.
Magic lanterns and slides from the Cotsen collection will be exhibited in the gallery of the Cotsen Children's Library from February through June.

"cast your dog toward the blind""
They will judge control from that response!
It wiil be that particular judges opinion as to how he interprets the rules...
But from what I have seen and experienced,, you will not be dropped, if your dog doesnt get on a specific point, or jump over a log. If you keep your dog heading in the direction of where the blind is planted,, and handel when he is not going in that direction,, and the dog corrects and takes the cast,, you will meet the standard.. If he miises a log, or point that may be on that dead straight line to the bird from the handlers line by a few feet,, I dont think the dog should be dropped in HRC..
I would as a Judge ask myself,, "would I hunt with this dog?"
THAT would be my determining factor..

Big Mouth Juice Extractor
Description & Highlights
Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juice Extractor
Make fresh and delicious juice and juice blends with the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juice Extractor (67608). Fruit, vegetables or a mixture of the two can be placed in the port and sent through the stainless steel blade and strainer to deliver refreshing juice out of the spout, straight into your glass.

The wide mouth allows for less cutting of your fruits and vegetables and includes a pushing tool for easy juicing. The extra-large pulp bin is easy to remove and empty after each use and can be easily washed out in the sink. Safety latches keep the lid to the port closed and pulp bin in place while the unit is in use so you don't have to worry about a mess on your countertop. An included recipe book offers 25 blends to get you started, but the juicer is only limited by your imagination.

Hair cut. Laundry. Grocery shopping. Grilled steak and lobster for dinner.
Hair cut. Laundry. Grocery shopping. Grilled steak and lobster for dinner.
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Friday on the way home from work, I stopped at Costco and got a pork shoulder. I came home and put a nice dry barbeque rub on it and stuck it in the oven at 200 F until about 3:00PM Saturday. I took it out of the oven and stuck it in my smoker with some hickory chips and left it for another 2 hours. It practically fell apart when the fork touched it. Between that and the chocolate cake I made, some cole slaw, mac and cheese, fresh green beans from the garden and a Hokie win over Miami, we had a good birthday celebration for my brother and I. We all had fun playing with the kids. I have to admit, the 15 month old is a LOT more fun to play with now than he was a year ago (but don't tell him that.) Also got the yard mowed (which was a major chore since we've had a ton of rain recently and I've got an acre to mow.)
Sounds like some good eating there Mtriv73!
Myself: cross country meet and work were the big ones.
I'd say at least 50,000. (It was a huge shoulder roast and a big cake.) Luckily most are still in the fridge as leftovers.
Tried (semi-unsuccessfully) to sleep in. Did the usual recycling (but only netted $3 this time). Picked up mom from her oil change appointment, went to mid-breakfast and did a little errand running. Graded all my "had-to" work and planned lessons. Watched various sports on the tube. Ended the day reading a new book I bought, and I will likely finish it today sometime.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
Besides the usual domestic chores, I spent quite a bit of time scanning some photos of my uncle (my dad's little brother), who died recently, for my cousins from our family album. I also uncovered another family album of my dad's that I hadn't seen before. Lots of unidentified photos in it. Sucks that my parents are no longer around to help out with the mysteries. Ended the night going to a benefit concert with Mrs. TI7 for our local Sheriff's Activity League (which helps at-risk kids) featuring our local news media as performers. Surprisingly good in general; with a couple of newsies being astonishingly talented.
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Final cross country meet of the season at the Wisconsin Private Schools Championship, a 4ish hour drive home then, a little tv. a quick nap and then sweet sweet sleep.
In the morning, previewed the course for next week's trail half marathon that I will be doing. Did about 9 miles of it. I've not raced that far since 1990, and the 9 miles is the longest I have run since a 15K last year. There will be some difficult hills, single track trails up and down switchbacks. I'll be happy to just run 8 minute pace.
In the evening, went to dinner at my lady friend's house with her family. After that, we watched a movie and played some games. Good times.
Went to my 20 year highs school reunion and worked on the talk I have to give in Seattle next week

Coin, a piece of metal or, rarely, some other material (such as leather or porcelain) certified by a mark or marks upon it as being of a specific intrinsic or exchange value.
The use of cast-metal pieces as a medium of exchange is very ancient and probably developed out of the use in commerce of ordinary ingots of bronze and other metals that possessed an intrinsic value. Until the development of bills of exchange in medieval Europe and paper currency in medieval China, metal coins were the only such medium. Despite their diminished use in most commercial transactions, coins are ... (100 of 32,761 words)

With exercise we want to get the most bang for your buck. So instead of kickin it old school with the classic crunch, we want to save your spine and burn more calories. Try out these dynamic movements that not only target your core, but recruit other muscle groups, like shoulders, legs, and the booty. You'll get a workout that's 3 X as good, in half the time.
Complete this set of 5 exercises 3 X through. We're going to do 30 reps, or 30 seconds of each this week.
Crunch substitute # 2: Spiderman Lunges: Get into a downward dog pose. From there take your right leg up so your foot is placed flat on the ground outside of your right hand. Reach your forehead to your knee, or as close as it will go. Be sure not to extend your knee over your toe, keep your shins straight. Alternate your legs each time.
Crunch substitute # 3: Pendulum: Place your hands on the ground and get into a pike position. Swing your right leg out to the side, bring it back to the ground, and now swing your left leg to the other side. Keep the pace quick, and swing those legs way out to the side.
Crunch substitute # 4: Stability Ball Plank: For a variation on the classic plank, simply place your shins on the stability ball. You should be in push-up position with your hands on the floor, straight out from you shoulders. Be sure to keep your bum up by pulling your pelvis in. (you can also use a stool if you don't have a ball)
Crunch substitute # 5: Stability Ball Pike: Get into the stability ball plank position. Roll the ball into your body, keeping your legs as straight as possible. You want your pelvis to be pointing up toward the sky, and will hopefully resemble an upside down V.
It should only take you 15- 20 minutes to complete this set 3 X through. You will never have to do boring ineffective crunches again. Keep up with these regularly, and watch the healthier you take shape.

Ethiopia: 2 million affected by severe drought
Drought induced by the La Niña phenomenon in the Horn of Africa has left more than 2 million people in urgent need of humanitarian assistance in the southern and southeastern lowlands of Ethiopia. According to a special report from the Ethiopia Humanitarian Country Team (EHCT), emergency conditions are likely to persist until the next rainy season arrives in October.
The Government, the UN, international and national NGOs, humanitarian donors and various civil society and private sector organizations have responded by providing water trucking to over 2 million people, relief food for food-insecure households, WASH, health and other non-food supplies in drought-affected areas, and enhanced animal health care and feed for livestock. A multi-agency national needs assessment will start in May, approximately one month earlier than originally scheduled according to the most recent OCHA Humanitarian Bulletin.
Meanwhile, there is heightened risk of disease outbreaks and pasture and water sources remain depleted in the most affected areas. Also, recent unrest in the Middle East and North Africa has temporarily led to declined demand for cattle exports from Ethiopia. At the same time, global food and fuel price rises have increased the cost of buying and importing essential goods and food.
The Government has called for an additional $75 million for priority response in April and May. EHCT agrees that the humanitarian response must be scaled up to meet increasing needs and expand operations in coming months to avoid critical pipeline breaks.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
Mississippi State has hired a cornerbacks coach.
Deshea Townsend, who starred at South Panola High School and spent 13 years in the NFL, has been chosen to fill the vacancy left by Melvin Smith. Townsend made the news known this morning on Twitter with the message, "Go Dawgs!!!! It's Official!!!"
Townsend played his college ball at Alabama and was a fourth-round pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1998 NFL Draft. He spent 12 seasons in Pittsburgh, winning two Super Bowls and recording 21 interceptions. He finished up his playing career in 2010 with Indianapolis.
Townsend has been an assistant defensive backs coach for the Arizona Cardinals the past two seasons. According to his Twitter page, he is the founder of the Pay It Forward Foundation and owner of the Deshea Townsend Fitness Academy.
Townsend will have a young group to work with. MSU is losing both of its starting cornerbacks from 2012, including Jim Thorpe Award winner Johnthan Banks. Among those vying for playing time next fall will be Taveze Calhoun, Jamerson Love and Cedric Jiles.
MSU has now filled both of its vacant positions. David Turner was hired as defensive line coach on Wednesday.

text: Forcing to the pile is NOT a blind drill; there is no need to stretch it out to that distance. It is part of yard work. It also should not be done in 6-8 inches of grass. Rather than ask about how to help your dog find the pile, you should find a more reasonable place to do the drill. Maybe a local park, school, or community area with low cut grass or sports filed. The point of forcing to pile is to get your dog going and to reinforce that going is the only option. If you've accomplished that (maybe you have and maybe you haven't) you may start looking for your T field, which should be a field where bumbers are clearly visible....just my two cents.

The tool also suggests to you contacts whose products and services match the search terms entered in your profile ('I'm looking for / They're offering' principle).
This enables you to find the most suitable contacts quickly and easily.
The message function enables you to agree on possible topics, interests and lines of business with your contacts before the GTM has even begun, making your face-to-face discussions and negotiations during the event more effective.
Arrange appointments
The appointments you arrange using the tool will be compiled to create a personal schedule for you. You can export this to Excel and/or Outlook whenever you need it. Requested, confirmed and blocked appointments are shown in different colours.
Around 18,000 appointments were agreed in relation with the 2016 GTM - arrange your appointments for the 2017 GTM!
The tool's extensive functions enable everyone to prepare effectively for the GTM so that meetings held at the event will be efficient and successful.
Create an individual profile
You can personalise your networking profile by posting your photo or a logo, adding key words to the 'I'm looking for' and 'I'm offering' functions, uploading documents with your company profile or products and services, and much more...
Use this networking tool – these and the many other functions will ensure you are as prepared as you possibly can be for a successful GTM!
The use of the networking tool is possible only after confirmed application to the GTM 2017.
