The World Cup has officially started in Brazil, which means the majority of the world will spend the next month glued to their TV screens, filled with patriotic pride- even in countries like the US, where soccer is slowly building a fan base. I highly suggest everyone watch because it's a fairly simple sport to understand, fun to watch and the players, well, they aren't terrible to look at. The favorites to win, in case you were wondering, are Germany and host country Brazil.
World Cup promotion aside, football/soccer is the world's sport and with 32 countries from all corners of the earth involved in the finals, so interesting names are just waiting to be discovered. The full rosters, with both first and surnames included can be found on Fifa's website, but some of the best are listed below. And you'll find that some of the most popular naming trends in the U.S. are reflected on the rosters of several countries: Italian variations of our Top 100, Roman names, place names, and other trends can all be found on footballers.

I'm imagining next Christmas morning at Buckingham Palace.
Sure, it is a palace. Even the simplest room is probably chock full of history and priceless antiques.
The children opening presents might be members of the royal House of Windsor, but they will share their rather ordinary names with children throughout the English-speaking world. The current generation includes the princely George Alexander Louis, but also three girls – Peter Phillips' daughters Savannah and Isla, and now Zara Phillips Tindall's new arrival.
Any of the extended Windsor family names could be overheard on local playgrounds almost anywhere.
Some called the Tindalls' choice disappointing, hoping for a Eugenie or a Zara. But it also speaks to the incredible freedom we enjoy when naming children in 2014.

Brady Goes Silent & Manning Lifts the Post-Season Curse
January 13, 2014 By
by Amy Lignor The AFC is given props this past weekend for producing riveting games that showed grit, determination and, yes, flags galore. However, neither winning team was a real shocker. One thing that could not be said before the Patriots versus Colts game began, was that Brady would basically be silent. But…he was. […]

They may not look like regular paper airplanes, but they are guaranteed to fly every time. Assemble several in different colors and let the flying competitions begin.
You'll need: paper straws, scissors/paper cutter, cardstock and clear tape.
Start by cutting 5" x 1" strips of card stock. Each airplane will need three strips.
Once the strips are cut, tape two of the strips together at the ends. You now have one 5-inch strip and one strip that is approximately 10 inches long.
Tape the ends of each strip together to create a circle. Repeat this step on the other strip.
Once both circles are made, use a piece of tape to secure the end of the straw inside the large circle.
Repeat the step with the small circle, securing it to the opposite end of the straw.

Perhaps so much so that he aroused whatever cruelty and anger and lunacy that Hernandez may have had pent up.
There is also a very significant population of men who are only aroused by overweight women.
No modern writer I can think of, except Camus, has aroused love.
In 2011, however, another study found more evidence to support the idea that men can in fact be aroused by men and women alike.
After all, as Susan Sontag wrote in her famous 1963 essay, "No modern writer I can think of, except Camus, has aroused love."
I was aroused by a discharge of cannon, and found the camp in commotion.
The lust of blood is a frightful demon when once it is aroused.

UPDATE: A win for the airlines. At the end of Aug. they were granted the 'speedy' trial date of Nov. 25.
Original story: You've probably seen news reports that American Airlines and US Airways want to go to trial as soon as possible to settle the Department of Justice's suit seeking to block their merger. The government has asked for a Feb. date, but what the carriers seem to be saying is, "Forget Valentine's Day, let's get it done before Thanksgiving." They've got good reasons.
Keeping the Merger Dream Alive
It's not yet certain that the case will go to trial but as air travel analyst Rick Seaney notes, the DOJ's position is clear: "They want to block this merger, period." The airlines of course want the merger to proceed and now more than ever time is of the essence. The airlines' lawyers have asked for a Nov. 12 start date and believe the entire trial can be completed in just ten days.
Don't Forget American's Bankruptcy
"The DOJ can kill the merger by winning the case or dragging it out so far as to effectively kill the deal," said Seaney, adding, "For American and it's thousands of employees, creditors, and investors, these people can't be left in bankruptcy limbo for an extended period of time."
In order words, American wants and needs its day in court, as soon as feasible.
Why an American flight attendant got the boot
Support from Unions, Pilots
American is getting plenty of support from some of the people who know it best. Union employees including pilots and flight attendants have all joined in support of an early trial date. As a jointly-issued statement put it, "Our message to consumers everywhere is simple: Let us compete for your business starting as soon as possible."

KNOXVILLE, Tenn.- The University of Tennessee women's tennis team took part in its first tournament of the fall, the Furman Fall Classic at the Mickel Tennis Center on the campus of Furman University in Greenville, S.C.
"This was our first tournament but some of the other teams have already played once this season and looked a little sharper," said co-head coach Mike Patrick. "It was great for the freshmen to get their first match under their belts. We competed well, but we also have a list of stuff that we can work on when we return to Knoxville."
On day one the Lady Vols saw much success as the doubles partnership of Joanna Henderson and Caitlyn Williams found themselves in the flight one doubles finals after defeating both of their opponents from South Carolina and Alabama in rounds one and two of the doubles tournament Friday morning.
Henderson and Williams took down Jaklin Alawi and Dominika Karakova of South Carolina in the first round by a score of 8-4. Round two saw the duo defeat Mary Anne Macfarlane and Maya Jansen of Alabama 8-6 to advance to the finals, which will take place at 9 a.m. on Saturday morning.
"Caitlyn and Jo did well today in doubles competition beating both of their opponents," said Patrick. "Caitlyn also played two doubles and a singles match and made it all the way through which is a great sign and she competed well in singles."
Also competing in doubles on the day were the No. 34 ranked doubles pair of Brynn Boren and Kata Szekely, who fell in the first round of doubles play to their opponents from UNC. The twosome rebounded with a round two victory over the host team to move on to the fifth place game on Saturday morning.
"Brynn and Kata played against some tough competition today in singles," said Patrick, "and they played in their first doubles match together. They are still feeling each other out and figuring out how to compete together well."
The freshman duo of Tiffany Tavares and Mimi Fotopolous fell twice on day one, in their first action as Lady Vols, by 8-2 and 8-3 scores to opponents from Florida State and Alabama. The pair will play in the flight two seventh place game Saturday morning.
On the singles side of things, three Lady Vols have moved a step closer to their flight final. Williams continued her winning ways by defeating No. 81 Francesca Segarelli of Florida State, 6-4, 6-4.
Fotopoulos picked up her first collegiate win with a victory over Ximena Siles of South Carolina, 6-2, 6-0 and her classmate Tiffany Tavares downed Furman's Katherine Oudin 6-1, 6-1 to move on to the winner's bracket.
No. 18 Brynn Boren dropped a tough 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 battle with FSU's Daneika Borthwick in flight one singles competition while No. 28 Kata Szekely also fell in three sets to Whitney Kay of North Carolina 6-1, 3-6, 6-3 in flight two. Kayla McMurray dropped her flight five opening round match to Romy Koelzer of Clemson 6-0, 6-3.
"We have lots of youth on this team and just two upperclassmen," said Patrick." It shows and you can't teach experience fast. It just takes time to learn which is what we are doing and we have to work hard for January."
The Vols will return to action Saturday in the final round of doubles competition, followed by the second round of singles action.

Hi Folks,
As many of you are aware, we experienced a period of time in which our supply of leather was interrupted and as a result, we are running very behind in our deliveries. The problem is being TREMENDOUSLY compounded with "is it done yet?" phone calls and emails - so many of them that our production is now down well below 50% of what we can normally accomplish.
Please bear in mind that we normally have 2-3 hundred orders at any given time, plus new folks calling and asking product questions every day as well. If each of our existing customers called us with an "is it done yet"? call every two weeks, that's 30 calls a day, plus new customer inquiries. Plus emails. Plus PM's. We simply can't do it all.
Our highest priority is to fill the orders that our existing customers have placed over the past year, and to do so as quickly as possible without lowering the quality standards that folks have come to expect from us. In order to do that, we are implementing the following measures ASAP:
1: We will not accept any new orders until such time as we are back on schedule. (90 days from now is our best estimate)
2: We are discontinuing all telephone communication and severely limiting emails with our customers until such time as we are back on schedule. The sheer number of calls/emails is enormous, and it has become so bad that even with my wife handling the majority of them, I still have entire days in which no holsters get made. People ask her technical questions that she has to pass onto me, and I don't get any more work done than if I were answering the phone myself. We simply cannot deal with this volume of calls and still find time to make holsters.
If a customer wishes to cancel or make changes to an existing order, we ask them to please do so by email :
firstname.lastname@example.com (However, please be advised that all "is it done yet"? emails will be deleted without response. All past due orders will be shipped within 90 days - many well before then. We are presently shipping 15 or so orders a week. That number will double with the phone turned off. Each person will be notified when their order ships so that they can be watching for it.)
Changes/cancellations can also sent by "snail mail" to the following address:
Brommeland Gunleather
PO Box 813
Sneedville, TN 37869
As always, refunds will be promptly made to anyone requesting them.
I really wish there was an alternative to this approach, but we are getting hammered with so many calls and emails that we simply will never get caught up if we don't do this. We owe our customers their holsters, and that must be taken care of before we take on anything more. It is my sincere hope that we can get this resolved quickly and get everyone taken care of without anyone getting their feelings hurt.
Thanks to all for your understanding and patience.

[BRAZIL 2014] The USA can learn a lot from Belgium. Like the USA, the Red Devils have never won the World Cup and only once before advanced as far as the semifinals. Indeed, they had not been to the World Cup or European Championship since 2002. But they were the deserving winners of one of the most dramatic overtimes in World Cup history. For three lessons the USA can learn from Belgium.
1. You need more than one center forward. In the weeks before the USA started World Cup training camp, the
question being asked was whether Jurgen Klinsmann should drop Jozy Altidore. Now that it is out of the World Cup, the
answer is clear that the USA could not do without Altidore. Ironic?
Klinsmann had no one on his bench to replace Altidore, using Aron Johannsson
only in the Ghana game and Chris Wondolowski for late shifts in two games. Without Altidore -- or a suitable replacement -- Klinsmann was forced to
switch how the USA played and Clint Dempsey and Michael Bradley both struggled in different roles.
lost its No. 1 striker, Christian Benteke, with a torn Achilles tendon in April but had two replacements: 21-year-old Romelu
Lukaku and 19-year-old Divock Origi. Lukaku is a bigger name -- Big Rom won the Belgian title with Anderlecht at the age 16 -- but Origi -- who has only
been playing professionally for 18 months in France -- had had the better World Cup and got the start against the USA.
Belgium's Queen Mathilde
congratulated Lukaku for scoring the winning goal against Russia, confusing him with Origi, who had scored the goal, his first ever for the Red Devils. Lukaku got his chance against the USA to score
what proved to be the winning goal, but it didn't matter who scored. As a tandem, Lukaku and Origi wore down the USA backline until it could hold out no more and were two more center forwards Belgium
had than the USA had when its first-choice striker went down.

2. You need to have the athletes. As U.S football and basketball stars caught on to the
World Cup and started showing their support for the national team, a lot of commentators made the connection and suggested the USA would have a better chance if soccer attracted the best athletes. A
simplistic argument -- see below -- but one that has some merit if you look at Belgium. The Red Devils had the better athletes, plain and simple.
Not just on the deciding play when Lukaku
tossed aside Matt Besler, the matchup of Big Rom and Besler looked like man versus child -- and that's not intended to be a knock on Besler, who was largely
excellent for the USA throughout the World Cup.
All the talk in the Belgian camp in the days leading up to the match was whether central defender Vincent
Kompany was healthy enough to play. We got the answer as he went the distance -- literally -- making a 100-yard run late in the dying seconds of the regulation that ended in arguably the best
of Tim Howard's 16 saves.
As good as Howard was against Belgium, there is probably no Red Devil supporter who would take Howard over Belgian No. 1
Thibaut Courtois, all of 22 years old. At 6-foot-6, Courtois has the wingspan of a small plane -- and the quickness to preserve the win with a point-blank stop
on Dempsey after the tricky U.S. free kick fooled the Belgian defense.
3. You need the soccer players. At the end of the day, what separated Belgium
and the USA was the Red Devils' soccer. Belgium won the game in midfield with its two little men, Eden Hazard and Dries
Mertens, both 5-foot-7, and Kevin de Bruyne, whose quickness was too much for the USA to handle.
Even after Lukaku broke past Besler, the
USA had three defenders with a shot of stopping de Bruyne but his touch was too good, leaving him open it fired an angled shot past Howard. The probing moves of Hazard, Mertens, later replaced Kevin Mirallas, and de Bruyne, the player of the game with the pass that Lukaku put away for the second goal, were too much for the USA, who again had little
concerted possession and got little out of its outside midfielders (until Julian Green's surprise entrance).
Like France, Switzerland and to a
lesser extent Germany, three other European teams in the final 16 at the World Cup, Belgium has successfully integrated players into the national team program from its immigrant communities, in its
case mostly from the former Belgian colonies in the Congo and from North Africa. But what they also done successfully is seek out and nurture players of skill, no matter their background.
While rise of the Red Devils coincided with a concerted effort by Belgian soccer authorities to seek out immigrant players playing in the streets, at a much more fundamental level they introduced an
emphasis on technique in young players at clubs across Belgium following the embarrassment of co-hosting Euro 2000 and exiting in the group stage.
It's paid off with a "Golden Generation"
that is the final eight of the World Cup for the first time since 1982

The redemptive quality of a story
May 11, 2012 by Leave a Comment
In her essay "The Grotesque in Southern Fiction," Flannery O'Connor writes that readers desire and even need something uplifting in the books that they read."There is something in us," she says, "as storytellers and as listeners to stories, that demands the redemptive act, that demands that what falls at least be offered the chance to be restored."At Thomas Nelson, where I work, we strive to publish stories that are in some sense redemptive. It's a priority at the acquisitions and editor … [Read more...]

Is it normal for my baby to spill a little milk every time he burps ?
My 4 month old baby is on formula and he has this habit of spilling a little milk every time he burps.Though I take care that he is not laid down after having milk and make sure he is in an upright position for a while after each feed. But still he spills a little milk every time he burps. Should I be worried about it or is it normal for babies. I am worried if the cause for this could be some stomach infection. I would be glad to receive your valuable advice on this.

How I Recovered from Panda by Banning Google
A panda might by a a cute animal but for most people who have a website and get traffic from search or rather mostly from Google it's worse than a zombie. Websites hit by one of the numerous so called Panda updates lose often a large percentage of their visitors and in many cases the businesses who own such websites go bankrupt.
This blog here has been among the highest ranked SEO blogs for years until one day in November of 2011 Google penalized it
during the Google Panda 2.8 update as far as I remember. This is not a real business blog I must admit, it's more just for fun, it doesn't earn money directly. I use it for testing and as a proof of concept. Thus I do not have time to care too much about it, I have to make money with client projects.
After the Panda update hit I was convinced that it was a false positive, my blog was always high quality so from one day to another it wasn't anymore? Nonsense. Google changed its ranking algorithm and my blog was collateral damage. Completely new and spammy blogs have ranked well instead of mine.
I thought I will check for duplicate content and similar common SEO issues with Google and fix them. I did. Nothing happened, my Google traffic was still almost non-existent. I got mostly off topic visits from people wanting to steal my images or to leave manual comment spam on my blog.
So I decided not to waste my time with rebuilding my blog from scratch to please the new Google algorithm.
An eye for an eye
Instead I decided to ban Google search altogether and to focus on my writing again and the people I really care about in the SEO community and elsewhere on the Web. So I added a meta tag telling Google (and other search engines) not to index my blog at all. It was really liberating, my writing improved significantly I was much more enthusiastic about blogging again. I didn't have as much time as in the early days of my blog where it got hugely popular all over the world but I still managed to write two posts a week in most cases.
So now a year later I noticed my blog ranking again at #13 in Google.com for [seo blog]
despite the noindex meta tag. I though it was just a short hiccup but it wasn't, Google indexed my and ranked my on my old position for a day. Many other people noticed it as as well. I did not as good from the US. There I was only at #23 but it was still better than the below top 100 I got before Panda hit me. I'm not in the Google index anymore while I'm writing this so do not check whether you can find me. The noindex mate tag works again. I made a screen shot though.
What apparently happened was that the Google Panda penalty got lifted.
Why? There are a few possible reasons:
- After numerous additional Panda updates they may have fixed their algo to root out false positives. That sounds logical but it's difficult to find out as my site wasn't indexed most of the time so we do not know when the actual change took place and whether a Panda update has been released at that time.
- An embarrassed Google engineer finally looked up what happened and improved the algo to reinstate my authority. This is very unlikely, I'm not an SEO VIP and I doubt that Google engineers care for my blog. I do not read Matt Cutts' blog either. I haven't since 2007.
- As I have written many postings and also engaged more on social media with my peers and beyond plus got a few topical and authority links along the way these new signals may have outweighed the negative Panda red flags. It could be but I am not sure I got that many more shares and links than previously. I do not count them very meticulously.
The irony of it all
What's the point of this post then? This question probably: isn't it ironic? Other people have spend months to please Google working on their sites for countless hours. Why fix something that is not broken? I have used that time for actually blogging, hanging out with people online, and implementing old and new ideas I had. For example I was able to finally declare my blog articles to be Creative Commons licensed. Google does not allow to publish the same content on more than one URL. All the others get deleted from the index in the worst case as duplicates.
So now I know that I'm back where I belong in Google search, having the rankings I deserve, even when only my homepage gets indexed.
Will I remove the "noindex" meta tag? I don't think so. I haven't fully recovered from the days of Google enslavement yet. My headlines still sound a bit over-optimized to please the Google overlords. I still haven't found the traffic sources that will allow me to become independent from the search monopolist. I didn't have the time yet to optimize my blog for people. My social media integration is not optimal, you can barely read my blog on a mobile, I still cater mainly to the relatively small SEO audience instead of the large ones I did in the early days.
Google made me fat and lazy.
Like in real life I want to become fit and active again. Maybe then I will be strong enough to deal with the Google bully and be able to say no when he tries to force me change my site or writing style for him. Google wants my content as their business model is to get it for free to put ads around it and to pose as a search engine while in reality they are just the biggest ad agency in the world. I hate ads like most people do. I block them.
Why should I give away my content for free to Google to pollute the Web around it with their text ads?
So my miraculous Panda recovery doesn't make overtly happy. Maybe I am not thankful. After all almighty Google has forgiven me! Still I wanted you to tell you about it. Letting go of your Google woes may result in the disappearance of the problems created by Google. To paraphrase Bob Marley: no Google no cry!

Thanks for the nice words. I think I'm steadily improving, and shooting digitally really helps. I can take 50 pics at a time, try 10 different "poses", and not have to PAY and WAIT for developing to find out that most of them sucked; it really speeds-up the learning curve. :mrgreen:

#1: bumps on my elbows
I have little bumps that I can feel on the outside of my elbows, a few inches above and below. I can't figure out if it's irritation from dry skin (which is a problem for me in winter) or if it's a reaction to putting moisturizers there! any theories? thanks!

April 20, 2012
STARKVILLE, Miss. -- The Tennessee Volunteers pushed ninth-ranked Mississippi State to the brink but could not complete the comeback Friday in the quarterfinals of the SEC Championship.
The Vols fought off match points and pushed three courts to three sets but eventually fell 4-2 to the host team in front of a capacity crowd at A.J. Pitts Tennis Centre.
Though they lost the deciding point in doubles, freshmen Mikelis Libietis and Hunter Reese led the way for the Vols in singles at the top of the lineup. Both provided the Vols' points on the scoreboard, with Libietis recording his first career top-10 win, beating No. 10 Artem Illyushin 7-6 (6), 6-2.
"There's a lot of room for growth, and I can see the growth happening," Tennessee head coach Sam Winterbotham said. "I can see Mikelis growing. He came out timid in doubles but in singles played to win. There are some other guys out there just battling and doing an awesome job, but we have to be able to turn that fighting into a little meanness. To turn that fight into a win."
The Vols (14-13) are currently ranked 16th nationally and are on the verge of being a first- and second-round host for the NCAA Championships. The Vols will learn when and where they play May 1, when NCAA.com's selection show airs at 5:30 p.m. Eastern.
Tennessee fell behind early on the top two courts in doubles for the second day in a row. Edward Jones and Jarryd Chaplin lost quickly 8-3 with the crowd cheering the Bulldogs on. On court 1, 10th-ranked Libietis and Reese lost for the second day in a row. After getting back on serve at 5-5, Libietis was broken right back en route to an 8-6 loss against Illyushin and George Coupland.
Once singles play begin, Mississippi State gained an immediate edge by going up a break on all six courts. The Vols fought back with Libietis and junior Taylor Patrick winning first-set tiebreakers on courts 1 and 6, giving Tennessee two first sets.
As matches moved into the second sets, the Bulldogs put two more points on the board. Louis Cant, ranked 46th, beat Jones 6-3, 6-0 on court 5, and Coupland broke Chaplin at 4-4 in the second set to hold on for the 6-4, 6-4 win, putting Mississippi State up 3-0.
From there, Tennessee started gaining momentum.
On court 1, Libietis rallied from a break down in the first set against Ilyushin to force a tiebreaker. He cruised in the second set, sealing the 7-6 (6), 6-2 win on a double fault by Illyushin to put the Vols on the board at 3-1.
Reese lost his first set 6-0 and trailed 5-2 in the second to last season's SEC Freshman of the Year Malte Stropp. He faced five match points in the second set before rattling off five games in a row on court 2, eventually winning the match 0-6, 7-5, 6-2 to close Mississippi State's lead to 3-2.
Knoxville natives Brandon Fickey and Patrick were the last Vols on court, both in the third sets at the No. 3 and 6 positions. Patrick had his serve broken early in the third set by Zach White and was broken again at the end to seal the 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-3 loss, which clinched the match for Mississippi State.
Fickey serving down 4-2 in the second set when the match was suspended.
Tennessee (14-13) has now lost seven matches this season against top-10 opponents.
"We have improved so much as a team," Winterbotham said. "It's clear for anybody to see. Everybody keeps talking about how well the team has improved and how well they've done this year. In everybody's minds, apart from the coaching staff, this team is overachieving.
"I believe this team is capable of winning this tournament. I'm proud of what we're doing but we've got to get better."
Mississippi State 4, Tennessee 2
1. #32 Mikelis Libietis, UT, def. #10 Artem Illyushin, MSU, 7-6 (6), 6-2
2. #80 Hunter Reese, UT, def. #77 Malte Stropp, MSU, 0-6, 7-5, 6-2

Bohemian Grove
Historical membership list
Main article
Important note: Rather than official membership, this list is a collection of past visitors of the Bohemian Grove. Some of them, like Bill Clinton, only visited once, while others come here almost every year.
Also, if you're wondering why this list contains no sources like some of the other lists on this site, that's because I started out as a simpleton, thinking I wouldn't need to double-check my information. I also assumed other people would just accept my information as correct, and if they didn't, that would simply be their problem. Only a year or so after finishing this list did I realize things just don't work that way, especially not with controversial topics like conspiracies.
Anyway, if you follow the sources in the accompanying article, you will find most of the names in this list. I might add a number of sources in 2008. Don't know if I can make time for that - doesn't really have prority.

buffalo wild wings catering menu prices
Chinese Rapidly Foods Marketing and advertising Classes
Would you buy sushi from a door to door flyer? Or wouldn't it taste like poo poo?
Arrived house from do the job very last night time to locate an additional flyer stuck to my doorway a few small strip mall chinese food put. Checked out it, thought about it, and afterwards put it in addition to the fridge with ten other specific exact menus from ten other china foodstuff places. www.toprestaurantprices.com
No differentiation. No specialization. Not even customization, simply because it's the similar menu along with the similar pictures and almost similar prices from different places with almost exactly the same names. China wok. China bowl. Hong kong china. China gold.
This flyer might have been ten, 100 even one thousand situations much more thriving by using a number of diverse aspects.
#1 eliminate the menu!
You'll find 137 options on the menu before me. I get it! But after a extended day at labor, the last matter any person genuinely needs to complete is make that lots of decisions about evening meal.
#2 kill the designer!
I am all for simplicity, so crowded, jumbled, homogenized advertising and marketing is dull and uninteresting is worthless. The fact that every menu is the same while using the exception of keep proprietor panel tells me some quite very good salesman is convincing small business owners that 5 cents to reach anyone is a fantastic financial investment.
It truly is not.
You might be throwing your hard earned money absent.
Here is tips on how to cure it.
Just one: sit before the pc, open up a phrase doc.
Two: decide on one merchandise, a bestseller and pair it with a 2nd product, as well as two facet orders.
3: acquire a electronic photograph of your meal particular.
Four: insert in the phrase doc, and generate a mouth watering description of the meal. Build an irresistible, specific offer you. (Could be absolutely free shipping, might be totally free food. May very well be acquire this offer for $5)
the point would be to tie it to anything unique and construct value.
Five: god towards the second page of your doc.
6: just take a picture from the cook dinner, or perhaps the owner and insert into your doc.
Seven: publish with regards to the spouse and children, the people today, the historical past in the biz. Make the name of your enterprise bold and large and set all approaches to call the company.
Eight: position a textual content box having a no cost present for the base with the 2nd website page. (In case the purchaser joins a club [enters their e-mail address] they obtain a absolutely free appetizer or food)
print them up. Now there is a two sided flyer. Offer a food to an individual to consider them doorway to doorway in a area neighborhood. Print up two hundred copies at .04 cents just about every as well as your price tag is $8. If a single man or woman responds towards your ad, you might be turning a gain.
But when persons answer, plus they will answer if the provide is good plenty of, you should definitely acquire their title, tackle and e-mail handle. This is certainly a simple technique to measuring response with your internet marketing effort.
In addition it builds your brand in the brain of your consumer and sets you other than your levels of competition. As soon as you have got picked 1 community, grow to a second community. But really don't forget about the first neighborhood! Make a 2nd flyer utilizing the exact very same template but a different offer and print it up.
It is possible to build as many meal specials while you can think of that makes the probabilities unlimited, but I like to recommend you are doing 8 flyers and experiment with the rapid increasing buyer record by means of e-mail.
Now I have fifteen more approaches that will insert 1000s of pounds on your base line, and turn your compact small business right into a major cash cow. But in advance of I share all those with you –
You won't need to personal a Chinese food restaurant to make use of individuals simple tactics to get more customers- it works for almost any cafe, restaurant or business- Italian – pizza – wings – steaks -the choices are extensive open.
So would you choose to know the way to dominate your customer's intellect and be 1st on their own checklist every time they are wondering about having out?

Unusual Collection '010 Outdoor Table and Bench' by Guilielmus
If you look at the works and projects of designer Stijn Guilielmus Ruys you'll find many inimitable and unique things. His works are aimed on the rejection of the traditional understanding of the things (pieces of furniture) and re-look at them from a functional point of view. For example, why does the table need four legs, if he manages well with two? His '010 Outdoor Table and Bench' use only three supports for the whole construction. This unusual design provides an additional and convenient legroom in spite of visual tension while looking at it. The whole collection of tables and seating has a name why-more-legs-when-less-will-do. Read the rest of this entry »

Switch by William Lee
The latest work of designer William Lee was presented at NY Design Week. This is lamp, which has no on/off switch and power cord. The Switch is the embodiment of the minimalism in design. The exquisite style of the lamp gives the impression of a high-tech object. It is rechargeable and is made of an acrylic construction with 60 LEDs hidden underneath. It is in flat position when off, as if waiting for something. As if coming to life, it changes its orientation from flat position, when toggled on.

Blockhouse which illuminates like a luminary: AZL architects
Blockhouse is a construction by AZL architects, in Nanking (Chinese People's Republic). The house seems to be composed of five parallelepipeds with rounded cutouts and perforations inside. It is a private dwelling house, which has a unique construction thanks to the ingenuity of architects. In the hours of darkness the house turns into a giant luminary that illuminates the surrounding area. Pseudo perforation is used as decorative elements of the interior, for example, in one of the toilets. The first and second floors of Blockhouse serve as rooms for daytime stay, whilst bedrooms are on the upper levels. The roof of the house in fact is another living room with a pool and a wooden terrace.

The Celluloid Jam House like a Moebius strip: Norisada Maeda Atelier
This house near Yokohama (Japan) is designed by Norisada Maeda Atelier (Tokyo). The aim of the design of the house was to make the walls of the building like the famous Moebius strip: when inner surface gradually becomes the outer and vice versa. Norisada Maeda argues that if one lets his finger run across the surface of the wall and moves in any direction, he can walk around the building inside and out, never having the finger to be torn off the wall. In addition to this remarkable highlight, the house has timber framing and the outside and exterior finish made of fiberglass. This solid finishing has no joints too. The house, reminding reeled off coil of white tape, carelessly thrown on the floor, was named Celluloid Jam.

Con artists attempted to get $2,500 from a local business using a popular scam involving a telephone relay operator.
Con artists attempted to get $2,500 from a local business using a popular scam involving a telephone relay operator.
Last week, a "relay operator" called the owners of Clear Creek Automotive in Hendersonville. A relay operator's job is to relay a phone call from someone who is hearing impaired.
The caller wanted to run a credit card with the auto repair shop in the sum of $3,500. After the initial call, the con artist and Glenn and Tammi Dudas, owners of the auto shop, began communicating via e-mail.
The con artist wanted to deduct $1,000 from the credit card and have the Dudases send the remaining $2,500 to a shipper who would deliver a truck needing repairs from Illinois to Hendersonville.
Once the vehicle arrived, the auto repair shop would deduct the $1,000 deposit from the amount of the entire job and the "customer" would make a payment for the remaining balance.
Glenn and Tammi Dudas saw many red flags immediately. They contacted local authorities and the Better Business Bureau. Both agencies agreed it was a scam.
The con artist was persistent and continued to call the Dudases even after the shop owners declined to help. The phone calls eventually ceased.
Mrs. Dudas said she has a deaf family member. "Using that ploy really irritates me," she said.
She wants to warn other business owners of scams.
"Everyone out there has a story," Mrs. Dudas said. "It could pull at a heart string."
She added, "If it's too good to be true, it usually is."
These types of scams are not unusual. Executive Director Norma Messer of the Asheville Better Business Bureau of Asheville-WNC Inc. told a business gathering last week that businesses in the U.S. lose $500 million annually to con artists. Along with the telephone relay scam, other common frauds involve the advanced fee loan, Yellow Book and toner restock.

Hoops Opponent Watch: Primer
Yea, and God did say unto his people, "hot damn, I'm glad it's basketball season, for verily, football season sucked."
~ First Letter of St. Paul to the Annarborites
With the dong-punching albatross of 2013 behind us, we can move fully into winter sports season with vigor and aplomb. But without Mitch McGary. Worst. Trip. Around. The. Sun. EVER.
Every week we'll keep tabs on Michigan's non-conference opponents, the state of the Big Ten, the potential NCAA Tournament draw, and the suggested viewing /rooting guide for the upcoming week.
Non-Conference Opponents
RPI Effect Only Teams:
It's becoming clear that Michigan's non-conference schedule was assembled by people who either don't know how RPI works,* don't know how math works, or aren't sold on this whole "Arabic numerals are the wave of the future" thing. Three of Michigan's opponents, UMass-Lowell (1-11), South Carolina State (4-8) and Houston Baptist (3-9) are below the 300 mark to KenPom, and Coppin State (4-9) fails to crack the super-elite group in the Top 270. Ben Folds Five wrote a song about these teams. Hint: it is not "The Luckiest."
|RPI: drowning slowly.
Outside of these masonry-like objects, Michigan played three of the ideal good-enough-to-not-kill-your-RPI-numbers-but-not-good-enough-to-beat-you-unless-LeVert,-Stauskas,-and-McGary-all-miss-significant-time type teams. Long Beach State (4-9) has won three in a row, including wins over Nevada and USC, and gave VCU and NC State some real competition. Holy Cross (6-6) hasn't really beaten anyone, but they have beaten six non-anyones, so that's something. Charlotte (8-4) has wins over Michigan and Kansas State, presumably because they were mad about not being invited to the BWW Bowl.
Big Sorts of Teams
Iowa State (12-0)
Significant Wins: Michigan, Iowa, @ BYU, Boise St.
Losses: [404 file not found]
The Cyclones weren't ranked when Michigan played them, but they definitely are now. Forwards Melvin Ejim and Georges Niang are both shooting around 50% from the field, with Ejim nearly averaging a double-double (18.0 ppg and 8.8 rpg). One caveat is that they have only played one game away from
Iowa City Des Moines Corn Rapids Ames, that being a 2 point win over BYU.
Florida State (9-3)
Significant Wins: VCU, UMass
Losses: Michigan (waives tiny flag), @ Florida, @ Minnesota
How important does that crazy-ass Michigan comeback in Puerto Rico feel now? At the time it was an amusing, "oh that's a nifty little win," but in hindsight it is a "THANK YOU BASED GOD" non-conference salvager.
Florida State could easily be 10-1 right now. They blew a 16 point lead against Michigan (including an 8 point lead and possession with 3 minutes left), and lost to Florida by 1 on a last-second offensive rebound despite outshooting and generally outplaying the Gators. Still, they look to be in that second tier of the ACC behind Pitt, Syracuse, and Duke, and MAYBE UNC. They are far from the most skilled team in the country, but will pose some significant matchup problems for a number of teams, given their overall largeness/tallness and tendency to be freeking huge. As Michigan's best NonCon win, you will want to cheer hard for the Seminoles.
Dook (11-2)
Significant Wins: Michigan, UCLA
Losses: Kansas, Arizona
From the makers of Jadeveon Clowney comes: Jabari Parker!!! Now with kung-fu crossover and Dick Vitale utility belt!!! Duke's true freshman guard/wing/forward/goalie/ambassador/imperial wizard has been exactly as advertised, looking like the most college-ready of the mega-frosh. He's averaging 22 and 8, and has scored 19+ points in every game but one this season. Guess which one.*
|Duke is really missing the Yellow Plumlee
The weird thing is, we really don't know that much about Duke. They lost to the two elite teams they played, beat Michigan (at home) and UCLA (at MSG), and beyond that have dispatched a large pile of unconvincing opponents by occasionally unconvincing margins. They beat Vermont by 1 point, ECU by 9, and Alabama by 10. Maybe it's the fact that they are down to three Plumlees on the roster, which isn't enough to form up the Megazord. They have played great offense and middling defense, and are probably among the favorites in the ACC once Parker settles in (/shudder).
*to those who accused GRIII of not being "into" that game, I suggest you try to stand between a bull mastiff and a squirrel for 40 minutes and tell me how it goes for you.
Arizona (13-0)
Significant Wins: San Diego St, Duke, @ Michigan
Losses: [Should have lost to Michigan but KenPom lied to all of us]
They're okay, I guess. Arizona is deservingly number one in the polls, based on how the polls work, and are definitely among the elite teams, but… eh? Purported super-frosh Aaron Gordon has had a whelming start; according to people who watch last night basketball regularly, he's playing great defense and flashing hilarious athleticism, but isn't consistent or diverse on the offensive end of the court. Arizona continues to look to Nick Johnson as their primary scoring option, and he's dropping about 16 ppg. They're clearly the class of a middle-heavy PAC 12.
Stanford (9-3)
Significant Wins: @ UConn
Losses: BYU, Pitt, Michigan (/blasts Katy Perry, waives crap out of tiny flag)
Stanford isn't all that good. But they are okay. And Michigan beat them. So we will continue to treat them as if they are good. We call this the Akron Delusion.
Pay no attention to the fact that Stanford's only remotely impressive win was a grinding, brick-laden slugfest over a UConn team that decided to play the entire second half in the style of breakdance-fighting. Seriously: Stanford was down by 10 at the half, scored 25 points in the second half, and won. That's a crime against ManBearPig.
[After the jump: objects ahead, and the return of THING THEY ARE LIKE]
Unverified Voracity Signs That Apparatus
Important. Notre Dame is good at football.
"Sign that apparatus up to play football," says Football Coach. "Okay," says assistant football coach. "Now I am a player," says apparatus.
There is no waiting list. Michigan has finally burned out the fanbase to the point that you can get tickets just by ponying up the five hundred bucks it takes to get on the "interest list":
Michigan officials say that everyone on "interest list" who paid $500 got season tickets. No pay, not on list.
And that's a year with Ohio State, Nebraska, and a Notre Dame night game on the schedule! I wonder what will happen next year, when 1) the schedule sucks and 2) it starts off with a slap in the face I don't even want to go to.
Meanwhile, ugh:
"This game is as hot, if not hotter, than two years ago," Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon told The Detroit News. "There's enormous demand. Hopefully, that's because the fans who saw the first night game want to come back for more, and also because it's the last Michigan-Notre Dame game at Michigan Stadium for a long, long time makes it really special."
Congrats on your short-term achievement.
At least they're willing to show penalties and such now?
CTK. Schofield's up. Do not stand between him and ham:
Countdown to Kickoff 2013: Day 16 - Mike Schofield by mgovideo
Forgotten man? What? He's a three-year starter!
There is also Courtney Avery, who plans on going to law school. No mention of the safety move that he's apparently flirting with right now, which is no surprise. The "no mention" thing, not the hypothetical safety move. I chalk that up to experimentation, FWIW.
Here is a long thing. Here's the 1992 Michigan-Notre Dame game, all of it:
Should I not spoil it? Is that an insane thing to do for a 21-year-old game? I guess I'm not going to say anything about the outcome. (Except it involves a berserk alpaca and ten tons of rubber cement.)
There is also the 1972 Ohio State game in four parts. Part One, Part Two, Part Three, and uh… Still Processing.
Fourth And Long. We'll have a Michigan-relevant excerpt from the book on the site on the 23rd that will be of local interest, but the most compelling parts of Fourth And Long—John Bacon's new book—are easily the Penn State stuff:
Privately, the staff joked that the less the 84-year-old Paterno got involved, the better things usually went. When Paterno did weigh in, he often confused the situation, got players' names wrong or just yelled at them by their numbers.
Still, his assistants clung to certain symbols of the Paterno Way. "Shave your face, cut your hair," Mauti said, recalling the mantra. "If we weren't shaved for a practice, we would have to work out on Saturdays in the off-season. It got almost to the point where that's all that mattered."
Few programs in college football at the time could have claimed a richer tradition than Penn State's. It looked like Camelot—but only from the outside. Almost every Penn State senior I talked to last season repeated some version of the following: "We felt like we were protecting an image. And only we knew it."
Mike Mauti and Mike Zordich are never going to buy drinks in State College again. BONUS: There's a great story about Jay Paterno almost being eaten by the defensive line that I hope makes it out in the wild that's worth the price of admission by itself.
Oh, for Flansburgh's sake. It is 2013 and are we STILL having Lloyd Carr on lists like these?
Here are some notable Big Ten (and Nebraska) coaching force-outs ...
LLOYD CARR, Michigan (1995-2007)
Lloyd Carr retired by his own choice. The athletic director was surprised by this. That he was surprised was completely insane because everyone around the program new Carr was going to hang it up quite soon. I just… Lloyd Carr was not forced out. Repeat this one thousand times, Adam Rittenberg, and feel bad about yourself briefly.
Previewing basketball. ESPN does it for the conference at large:
Best case: The Wolverines were a dominant Louisville second half from winning the national title in 2012-13, and, while losing the national player of the year is never easy, the combination of Beilein's returning studs and his incoming talent could put Michigan right back where it was in April.
Worst case: There are questions, though. Can McGary produce over a whole season without Burke on the ball? Can Robinson evolve into a more perimeter-oriented, versatile scorer? Can Nik Stauskas be a multifaceted threat? Can Spike Albrecht and Zak Irvin keep all these gears in motion? Most of all -- can the Wolverines defend?
Not really, yes, yes, maybe? Meanwhile, Seth Greenberg puts Michigan and State 1-2 in his conference power rankings.
It remains to be seen whether Robinson can be as effective at the small forward position as he was last season at power forward, playing off Burke's penetration. If Robinson concentrates on being a basketball player as opposed to a position player, it will be in the best interest of the Wolverines.
He drops Indiana down to sixth(!), behind Iowa(!). Related: this will be the 65th straight season where I say "watch out for Iowa basketball, they look good" in November only for the Hawkeyes to top out as an NIT team.
I want this to happen just so I can see Jeff Meyer's face the next time he meets Tom Crean. Indiana decommit James Blackmon Jr. is planning a visit to Michigan, whereupon he'll presumably be offered. Why this is delicious:
Blackmon has been to Ann Arbor before, he was sitting next to Austin Hatch this March when Indiana played at Michigan. Blackmon was committed to Indiana at the time and the visit was thought to be at least part of the reason for the rift between Tom Crean and Michigan assistant coach Jeff Meyer after the game.
Blackmon is a Kentucky legacy with a Kentucky offer, so file under extreme long shot. He would fill the SG slot Michigan currently would like Devin Booker to fill, FWIW.
The worst case scenario. Actually this is Iowa we're talking about, so this should rightly be renamed "thing we expect to happen":
Spartan coach Mark Dantonio refuses to bring his team to Iowa City, saying "I'm competitive, but I'm not insane." Offensive coordinator Greg Davis calls out Dantonio in a press conference, saying "Mark ... just ... looking out for ... players. Doesn't want our boys ... to hurt 'em ... too bad. Let's ... give him ... a hand."
The government has turned Minneapolis into a quarantine zone. Chicago residents have erected hasty barricades to separate themselves from the outer suburbs. IOWA WINS BY FORFEIT
Needs more alligators.
Also in worst case scenarios, the NCAA's in the Ed O'Bannon case is "severely damages Iowa State and no one else."
Etc.: ND game is at eight on ESPN, because ABC has NASCAR. What is wrong with you ABC? Christian Hackenberg pulls even with another first-year guy (a JUCO transfer) in the Penn State QB race. Gardner Heisman hype. DOES ADAM JACOBI THINK ANYTHING SHOULD PLAY FOOTBALL?
Illinois assistant gets a two-game ban for tryna murder him some officials after the end of the Miami-Illinois tourney game last year. Guy had a case, though. SI ranks M 18th, hates on their special teams without explanation.

Texte principal de l'évenement.
Underground mining continues to progress at deeper levels and industry is now extracting mineral reserves at depth that previously would have been considered "un-minable". Deep mining is a very technical and challenging environment. The geotechnical and logistical issues, including reticulation and refrigeration of fresh air, are often intense and best practices and innovations need to be implemented.
The Australian Centre for Geomechanics, The University of Western Australia looks forward to hosting the Seventh International Conference on Deep and High Stress Mining in Sudbury for the first time. This follows the previous International Deep and High Stress Mining Seminars held in Perth, 2012; Santiago, 2010; Perth, 2007; Quebec City, 2006; Johannesburg, 2004; and Perth, 2002. The series objective is to promote documentation of the latest technologies and practices of mining in deep and high stress mining environment.
The Australian Centre for Geomechanics has enjoyed a long and proud association with the Canadian mining industry since our inception in 1992. Our countries have a common wealth of state-of-the-art geotechnical knowledge and technologies. We are delighted to share our worldwide deep and high stress mining excellence by hosting our very first international geotechnical mining event in Canada. The University of Toronto (and previously Laval University) continues to provide ongoing support and encouragement of this unique event series. Associate Professor Marty Hudyma, Laurentian University and the ACG team look forward to joining with our Canadian friends and peers to host Deep Mining 2014 in Sudbury.

The issue I am having is that on occasion I get a "stability sys active" message on the DIC and the car brakes on it's own. It is usually the passenger side front wheel that brakes. I had to pull into the suicide lane one time because the car wouldn't quit braking on its own. This message is usually accompanied by the ABS light coming on. I am assuming this is a wheel speed sensor issue. Is this sensor and the ABS sensor one in the same? Is there a way I can test these sensors with a mutli-meter? Is there anything else I should be looking for when I take the wheel off. The inner edge of both my front tires are very worn (previous owner), could this be the cause? I am in the process of getting new front tires. I have HPtuners software but I don't think it will read non-ECM codes such as the ABS sensors.

|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Unlike the Texans game on Monday, Sunday night's match-up of the 49ers and the Patriots lived up to all the hype. It had the feel of a heavyweight fight, and looked like a bloodbath early on. The Patriots turned things on late to make the game interesting, but the 49ers were able to hold off and gain a rare December win in Foxboro.
– The 49ers came out of the gates firing. It was clear right from the start that they looked at this game as a playoff game. They were interrupting Brady early and often and as a result the Patriots' offense never got on track.
– The first offensive drive couldn't have gone any better for San Francisco. Their first three plays netted three first downs and it looked as though the Patriots were grossly overmatched. Of course the drive ended with a touchdown pass to Randy Moss. It was only fitting wasn't it?
– The Tom Brady interception was a result of a great pass rush, bad blocking, and Wes Welker being slowed up in his route. Brady should have never thrown the pass but he made up for it with the touchdown-saving tackle that proved to be a key play early on.
– Because of Brady's tackle the defense forced a fumble to stop the 49ers from scoring on that drive. The offense once again looked overmatched by the physical and athletic 49ers' defense. They were getting to Brady, and forcing some pretty ugly passes from the usually precise quarterback.
– My man crush on Alfonzo Dennard stands firm, however those two touchdowns appeared to be his fault. On the first one to Moss, Devin McCourty bit ever so slightly to the middle, which left Moss one-on-one with Dennard, and Moss typically comes out on top in those situations. The pass to Delaney Walker appeared to catch Dennard lost in coverage. He was distracted by Vernon Davis going over the middle which allowed Walker to slip behind him and catch a wide open touchdown pass from Colin Kaepernick. He went down at the end of the second with an apparent knee injury and we need to hope it isn't serious.
– The Patriots' offense finally looked to be gaining some momentum in the second quarter, and even converted a 4th and 4. However the drive stalled with some dropped passes, throws in the ground, and all they could manage was a field goal. The field goal was all they scored in the entire first half.
– The Ed Hochuli debacle on the punt was painful and hilarious to watch. I think everyone who watched lost valuable IQ points after it was over. Ed, it might be time to hang up the whistle.
– The game appeared to be over with 5 minutes gone in the third quarter. The 49ers were up 31-3 and the Patriots looked beat in all aspects of the game. Then Tom Brady started to play like Tom Brady. He led an almost strictly no-huddle offense 73 yards on 13 plays. The drive ended with Danny Woodhead punching the ball in for the score.
– Danny Woodhead deserves a ton of credit. All season he has been coming up with clutch plays when his number was called and Sunday night was no different. He added a second touchdown run after another impressive no huddle drive. The 49ers were going all-in on a quarterback sneak. Instead Brady handed it off to Woodhead and he walked in for the game tying score.
– Brady extended his streak of consecutive games with a touchdown with his pass to Aaron Hernandez.
– How disheartening was it to come back all the way from 31-3 to tie the game, only to give it up in two plays. The kick off return was the game changer. If they tackle him in the 20-30 range of 49er territory there is a great chance the outcome of the game is different. Instead they had terrific field position and scored one play later on a catch and run by Michael Crabtree.
– The loss definitely hurts because now the Patriots are no longer in control of the #2 seed. They now need to win out and get a loss from the Broncos. They went from being in control of their own destiny to playing wait-and-see in just a week.
– This game highlighted the main weakness of the Patriots and that is going up against an athletic and aggressive defense. The first half of the game the 49ers were all over Brady and that certainly was a key factor in the outcome of the game. They have struggled in this aspect, going back to last season. It showed in the Super Bowl as well as the games against Arizona, Seattle, and Sunday against the 49ers. The Patriots were 1-3 against the AFC West this season. Never thought I would write that.
– The biggest positive is, of course, the comeback. This game looked to be completely over with just 5 minutes gone in the third quarter. The defense turned it up thanks to outstanding play from Aqib Talib, and of course, Vince Wilfork. The offense looked to switch it into another gear and put up 28 points in a flash. They showed no quit and almost pulled off an improbable win. This loss could have been a whole lot worse.

Current and former Regina Pats will be taking to the ice at the Brandt Centre Monday night for a good cause.
The doors at 6 p.m. for a skills competition featuring the current edition of the Regina Pats, before that, the Pats alumni will take to the ice for a game of their own. All you need to get in is a donation to the Kyle Deck and Regina Kidney Foundations.
Monday morning, a number of those players were on the ice for a little bit of a game day skate.
"I'm expecting a lot of guys having fun out here," said Mike Sillinger. "I think you'll see some good hockey, I'm sure the guys will let the puck do the work."
While the game will be fun to watch, the real reason for the evening is raising monday for the Kyle Deck and Regina Kidney foundations. Deck is of course a former captain of the Pats, who needs a kidney transplant.
"Really dear friend of ours, a great captain for the Regina Pats," said Jamie Heward.
It's an opportunity for the alumni to experience some good times, with a number of its members struggling with health problems over the last few years.
"One of those fellow guys is Brandon Davidson," said Sillinger. "Kind of explained to him what was going on."
The good news is that according to Sillinger, Davidson is now 90 per cent cancer free.
Money will also be raised through a silent auction, with all funds being matched by the Shooting Stars Foundation which was founded by Heward, Sillinger and Jordan Eberle.
The alumni game will feature Team Blue against Team White, to see the rosters click here.

What Students Say About Online Classes
"I was very reluctant to take online classes, but because of my various roles as a wife, mother, full-time employee, and student my time was limited…. Online classes have helped with managing my time in these various roles, and have been a true blessing to both my family and my learning experience at WCC."—F. Robertson

What should a Sunday dessert be like if it is to disappear as soon as it has been served? In my home we need two things: chocolate and fruit. These ingredients usually ensure my culinary success. Recently I used them to prepare muffins with blueberries and white chocolate. They were yummy, fluffy inside and crunchy outside, and it was possible to smell the sweet, chocolate fragrance in the corridor outside our flat. As usual, some of them were packed in boxes for my children's packed lunch.
Ingredients (12 muffins)
300g of flour
3 tablespoons of cocoa
150g of butter
170ml of milk
160g of brown sugar
2 eggs
2 flat teaspoons of baking powder
½ teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
12 bars of white chocolate
Heat the oven up to 190C. Put some paper muffin moulds into the "dimples" of a baking pan for muffins.
Melt the butter in a pan. Leave to cool down.
Mix together the dry ingredients of the muffins: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and cocoa. Mix together the milk, vanilla essence and eggs in a separate bowl. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and mix them in. Add the melted butter and mix it in again.
Put the dough into some paper muffin moulds up to 1/2 of their height, and put 3-4 blueberries and one piece of white chocolate on top. Add some dough on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes.

So, my mom sent me some madeline pans and a cookbook of just madelines. I made them for the first time last night. I definitely need to practice some more. The one thing that is tripping me up, I think, is that the instructions say to grease and flour the pans even if they are non-stick which mine are. I don't know if you've ever tried to grease and flour non-stick, but it does not come out nicely. The fat beads up on the surface of the molds.
First, I made chocolate olive oil ones and following the grease/flour instruction. They ended up with white spots all over the front looking kind of like a throat infection. I also need to put them in for a shorter baking time. It was hard to tell when they were done. Chocolate doesn't translate to "when the edges brown" very well
Then, I made a basic recipe and used the flour spray. These ones didn't puff up much. It might be because the recipe was only supposed to make 12, but I got almost double. I tried to only fill the molds 3/4 of the way, but maybe I underfilled? Using the whole recipe in only 12 molds would've filled them up completely. Or is it because of the flour spray?
So, when I try them again, should I skip greasing the pans? Should I try filling only 12 for the second recipe?
Any other suggestions, tips, wisdom? Thanks!!

Hi everyone!
I hope I'm not posting in the wrong section. I am looking for recommendations on where to find a used/economically priced climate controlled (low humidity and refrigerated, but not too cold) chocolate display case as well as a regular refrigerated display case (bakery style). Something like this, but it doesn't need to be too fancy looking. I am living in Canada on the West Coast, so the closer to local, the better. I'm finding it very challenging to find something. I found and excellent deal on a couple of used ones in the USA, but the seller doesn't want to deal with the hassle of having it crated and shipped. I'm trying to keep up to date searching on the Ecole Chocolat graduate forum as well as The Chocolate Life classifieds.
Also, does anyone know if a smaller table-top type climates controlled chocolate display case exists? Or are the only options out there for larger models?
Warm Regards,

Tina Jo Orban (née Bagne) is a fitness model and former Playboy model. She had retired from modeling for some time to live in San Mateo, California, together with her husband Matt Kurt Orban, son of Kurt Orban of Kurt Orban Partners, an international steel trading company, and brother to inventor Bob Orban of Orban Electronics. In June 2000, she created her own website, where you could read her biography and buy some of her pictures. This site went down for some time, but is alive again with new features.
Her statistics: 5'5", 115 lbs., 34c-22-34
Tina says: Little Tina Jo was actually born Toni Jo. It was thought up 'till delivery I would be a boy. Surprise! Since then that seems tobe the theme of my character... full of surprises. Growing up in Hollywood with two gorgeous sisters, and two brothers, and being second to the "baby" of the family I was known to be quite a tomboy. I liked to play baseball, and fight with the boys.
Early on my athletic prowess surfaced: in the fifth grade when Ronald Reagan (who happens to be my favorite president) conducted his campaign for exercise in the public schools, I won the contest for the longest time holding chin up. I believe I held on for over two minutes in a chin-up position, beating even every boy in the school! Finishing with high school and blossoming, I decided to join a gym. The real influence to take up weights came to me once I was inside the gym.
I was Miss Eugena's runner up when I was just 19. I also won tons of various bikini contests in California prizes anywhere from $150--$500, also gym memberships, and bikini's. I decided to go national, and entered the Miss Fitness Galaxy 1994, not placing as high as I wanted, but the photographers loved me. I must have had a dozen business cards by the time I left Florida's Miss Galaxy camp.
Tina Jo Orban back on TOP
I just competed October 29th 2005 in the INBA International Bodybuilding Association The World Natural Bodybuilding and Ms. Fitness and Ms. Figure Championships— and I won!!! First place Ms Figure. So the road to take NPC.... Or Stay with INBA ABA? I will make the decision over the next year, but many want me to try to get into the Figure Olympia for next year!

Spoiler Alert: Jacoby Shaddix From Papa Roach Picks The Superbowl Winner!
I'm calling this a "spoiler alert" because the interview with Jacoby will air tomorrow (Friday) morning on the RockShow at about 7:35. Due to rock star schedules, we recorded the interview at 11 a.m. on Thursday. Among the non-rocking topics was his choice for the Superbowl. More after the break.
