In the wake of a disappointing debut in the United States, the wireless data industry was shaken up last December when AT&T Wireless (soon to be spun off from AT&T) announced that they were teaming up with NTT DoCoMo, a Japanese telecom company, to bring wireless data services to America.
Industry analysts have been raving about NTT DoCoMo's wireless data service, I-Mode, which has been a huge success in Japan, with more than 17.8 million subscribers for months. I-Mode is often referred to as the model for wireless data services, especially when compared to less than extraordinary wireless Web services in the United States. Like wireless Internet services in the U.S., I-Mode allows users to access a compact version on the Net on a handheld device (like a phone or PDA). But I-Mode is faster and always on. It also allows users download things like video games and ring tones from the Net.
NTT DoCoMo will invest about $9.8 billion in AT&T for 406 million shares or 16 percent of AT&T Wireless tracking stock -- an investment that will give AT&T a needed cash infusion as well as license to the I-Mode technology platform.
The alliance changes the technology landscape in the U.S. because AT&T will now support the GSM standard, which few U.S. carriers currently use. Up to now, GSM has been more dominant in Europe and Asia; the deal gives its carriers more leverage in the U.S. market.
GSM, which stands for Global System for Mobile Communications, is a way to transmit information (a conversation for example) over a wireless network. It is an alternative to technologies like Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), which is more prevalent in the U.S. The primary difference between CDMA and GSM is a technical issue concerning how data is sent over networks.
There is an ongoing debate in the wireless industry about which technology will be used to transmit data in the future -- and therefore become the third-generation standard. Currently, AT&T carriers use a technology called TDMA, or Time Division Multiple Access (a standard that GSM is based on), which is another one of the several ways to transmit data wirelessly. The announcement that AT&T will be supporting GSM is important because it will have a significant impact on which technology dominates in the future.
The carrier with the most subscribers will most likely have the best service because higher volume means more/better devices and lower costs regardless of which technology works better.
Industry analysts view NTT DoCoMo's motive for making alliances around the world as a way to ensure that the technology that they support -- Wideband-CDMA (in contrast to a technology referred to as CDMA2000) -- will be the dominant third-generation technology.
"NTT is putting is putting global partners in place, and AT&T will benefit from them because they have already deployed a successful technology," says Kelly Quinn, an analyst at the Aberdeen Group.
As an early developer of W-CDMA, NTT DoCoMo – which counts KPN Mobile from The Netherlands, Telecom Italia Mobile from Italy, and SK Telecom from South Korea among its international alliances – would reap rich rewards if the technology becomes a dominant third-generation force.
AT&T also hopes to benefit from NTT DoCoMo's international influence. According to AT&T Wireless Services Vice President of Data Prodduct Development Tom Trinneer, AT&T Wireless's arrangement with NTT DoCoMo will affect competition in relation to third generation standards and the use of I-Mode components in the U.S.
"Relative to the third generation standard, we really believe that this act shifts the playing field in a pretty dramatic way," says Trinneer. "We are moving down the GSM path in entirety to UMTS (W-CDMA) and we are doing that in association with DoCoMo."
The AT&T/NTT DoCoMo alliance gives current technologies in the GSM path a strong foothold in the U.S. and should substantially boost W-CDMA's base market. More users means better handsets, services and prices. Competitors that don't support these technologies would be marginalized.
For global business travelers using AT&T services, the switch to GSM means that they will be able to carry one phone almost all the way around the world (from Central Europe, across North America, to Japan). AT&T is already a dominant provider of business services and these new offerings will help the company maintain its position. AT&T also hopes to help NTT, which is currently more consumer oriented, provide business offerings for its customers.
AT&T's Trinneer offers advice to CIOs: "Today, every major software corporation has very serious wireless initiatives. Just like ever CIO gets a bi-annual or quarterly review from their major software providers, they should be asking hard questions about how their provider is going to take them wireless. For example: I've got a legacy installation of product X, how will you get me to the next version, and how will I be able to wirelessly enable my workforce? They should be planning for that now."
There are already numerous possibilities for enabling a work force with wireless technology, but it is important to remember that the industry is still in its infancy. "If CIOs want to move now, all of those providers have that capability," Trinner says. "The early adopter types of corporate America are already doing this, either in small deployments, trials or in some cases tens of thousands of deployments."
This alliance between AT&T and NTT DoCoMo is a sign that the wireless data market is heating up. Even if they haven't yet moved into the world of wireless technology, CIOs should be aware of what is happening and preparing a wireless plan.
GSM (Global Systems for Mobile Communication): Commonly considered the European standard for voice communications, GSM is used to send information across wireless networks by digitizing and compressing the data before if is sent. It is based on TDMA (see TDMA).
CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access): A technology used to send information across a wireless network in contrast to GSM. CDMA uses mathematical code to differentiate between transmissions that travel on the same signal. U. S. carriers like Sprint and Verizon use CDMA to transmit data across networks.
The Third Generation of Wireless Communications (3G): 3G is often referred to as the next generation (we are in the 2nd generation of wireless communications). 3G networks promise faster, better wireless data experiences on mobile devices (phones, handhelds). 3G hopes to bring a multimedia experience to wireless users, but 3G networks need a lot more bandwidth than the current wireless networks. NTT DoCoMo plans to provide the first 3G networks in Japan, and AT&T hopes to roll one out (with NTT

A Couple of April Fools
by Gregory Maguire
No current Talk conversations about this book.
"A Couple of April Fools" is the next to the last book in the Hamlet Chronicles. I actually read the last book, "One Final Firecracker" first, so click on the title to read my review on that if your interested. I'm sad that this is my last book to read in this series, because I've really enjoyed reading it!
In "A Couple of April Fools," we join our friends as they sneak up on April Fools day. Miss Earth is distracted, and the Thekla is trying hard to figure out if Miss Earth and Mayor Grass are actually engaged, and that's why Miss Earth's so distracted. The rest of the students are debating the wisdom of playing tricks on each other this year.
Unfortunately, the trick that girls decide to pull on the boys turns a little bit nasty, and then Miss Earth disappears! This throws the whole town into an uproar. Speculation abounds. Where could she have gone? Did she run away with someone other than Mayor Earth? Did Mayor Earth hurt his hand losing his temper at Miss Earth? Did some other foul play befall her? You'll have to read the book to find out!

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 061827474X, Hardcover)
It's springtime in Vermont, and strange happenings are afoot in the little town of Hamlet. The students at Joshua Fawcett Elementary School are busily planning their practical jokes for April Fool's Day, but their pranks fall flat when it is discovered that their beloved teacher, Miss Earth, has gone missing.
Has the mysterious creature that's lurking about town and stalking local farm animals made a meal of Miss Earth? Or is Mayor Grass, her esteemed fiancé, responsible? Miss Earth's students know that the clock is ticking and they must find the answer-and their teacher-before it is too late.
True to form, Gregory Maguire has added an uproarious installment to the Hamlet Chronicles, a tale packed with high humor and suspense that also touches on more serious themes of adolescence and family relationships.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:07:45 -0400)
At a Vermont elementary school, April Fools' Day takes on a sinister tone when a teacher goes missing and several suspects emerge, among them the teacher's fiance and a missing mutant chick.

DHA Essential for Health of Digestive Tract
Byron J. Richards, Board Certified Clinical Nutritionist
Listen to Byron Explain
Update Required To play the media you will need to either update your browser to a recent version or update your Flash plugin.
New research suggests that DHA is an important nutrient in the prevention of any type of inflammatory bowel disease1. This is one application of DHA in its overall role as a major anti-inflammatory nutrient that actually promotes the complete resolution of the inflammatory process, as described in my groundbreaking article, Resolvins and Protectins: Did You Get Your Anti-Aging DHA Today?
The researchers found that DHA reduces the sticky and inflammatory signals coming from epethelial cells, directly reducing the risk for developing inflammatory bowel issues.
The benefits of DHA to the circulatory system and brain are well documented. This study shows that DHA is functioning virtually everywhere in your body to help regulate genes that promote health and healing – including your digestive tract.

" Brand: Ikea / Type: Mirror "
There a couple of Stave mirrors available from Ikea, the one shown in this picture is the thin version, I got the extra wide version (160x70cm rather than 160x40cm) for just a few pounds more. I've wanted a full size mirror for many years now and to finally pick one up of such good quality for just £30 has left me over the moon. I'm over 6ft tall but the mirror is still easily big enough for me to see everything in the mirror - however terrible the sight!
There are a number of finishes available from Ikea, the light brown finish shown in the picture here, black, white and a brown/black which I opted for. The wood finish looks great and is a very good quality - my housemate guessed a price tag of £55 when he asked me how much my mirror cost me.
In terms of hanging it on the wall, it is an absolute breeze. There are holes in the back of the mirror which offer suitable supports and it's just a case of sticking a couple of screws/nails in the wall (fixings aren't provided). It is currently placed vertically in my bedroom but I'm toying with the idea of moving it into the hall as it really does fit in anywhere in the house.
I'm not a massive clean freak and as such the mirror can get quite dusty at times - although I'm convinced it smudges/attracts dust more easily than the other mirrors in my house. Having said that, with a cloth and a generic cleaning spray, it also cleans pretty easily too so there's not really an issue.
Overall, this is a brilliant mirror and really cannot be faulted. It is very cheap but oozes quality wherever in the house it is placed.
In my flat I have a hallway and as you walk in the door there is a big empty wall to the back area. I was going to put up some photographs of my friends and family up however when I was in my local Ikea store recently with some money burning a hole in my pocket when I came across some mirrors and got mooching about cos one had been broken in transit during my last home move and I had been looking to replace it with something and then I came across this and it seemed a good solution to me for the blank and bare looking wall plus handy for me to check what I look like when on the way out of my door!
This was available to buy when I was instore in a couple of different sizes and in Birch finish, white and black finishes and I bought mine in the birch. I thought if it didn't look right when hung where I wanted it to be I could always paint it and at just £30.00 for a large and good quality mirror I did think it was a bit of a bargain too!
I bought this in the 70x160cm size which is quite a big oblong mirror and it cost me £30.00. In style it is simple being a large piece of real glass edged by birch wood which is plain and smooth and secure casing of the mirror then you get a couple of screws with the mirror and this basically is meant to hang on those. My Stepfather put this up for me in my hallway in a matter of a couple of minutes flat with a hammer and made no mess thankfully.
I have this hung vertically though it can also be hung horizontally if you prefer which makes this a versatile mirror in my view!
I like plain things with clean lines and this is great for me and my needs. Its big mirror mine though can be bought in smaller prices for alot less than I paid however I dont regret this buy as its great!
Only available from Ikea stores.
A few months ago, we decorated our bedroom and bought some new furniture to spruce it up a bit. One of our purchases was this Stave full length mirror from Ikea, costing £20. Considering I paid £45 for a smaller similar styled mirror from another retailer a couple of years ago, I found the price to be very reasonable.
The mirror comes in a range of colours, the one we went for was the matte black just as it is fairly neutral and would match other colours and decors in the room. It is also available in birch, oak and matte white too and in different sizes - the one we have measures 40cm x 160cm but it's also available in a wider 70cm width too. It's available from Ikea in their self service section so it's simply a case of picking it up at the end of the showroom.
It fixes to the wall via two small screw hooks on the back - these are included in the package from Ikea so no need to purchase anything else to hang it. The mirror just slots over these. It can be hung either vertically or horizontally too, although I personally would never consider hanging it horizontally as I think it would be far too wide that way - for anywhere in my house anyway. There are also fixings in the package to make it a turnable mirror, this isn't something we ever considered doing though so I can't comment on how well this feature works but at least the option is there.
The mirror has a box shape, what I mean by that is that the mirror part doesn't fit flush to the wall, the frame comes out from the wall by around 4cm so the mirror part is also 4cm away from the wall. I love this design, it looks contemporary which suits the rest of our room. With the colour being plain black, it would suit most rooms, I did consider putting it on our landing and I think it would have looked just as nice on there.
I like to have a full length mirror in the bedroom so that when I'm getting ready to go out I can see exactly what I'll look like (I usually change into 4 or 5 outfits before I finally decide on what to wear!). This mirror is great for this purpose and even though it's 160cm in height, my 6ft husband finds it just as useful as I do at 5ft 2". It's also very easy to clean - I find dusting it is simple because of the matte frame it has, it simply just wipes away as it is smooth to touch. I also find that any spots that appear on the mirror itself wipe away very easily with a quick squirt of glass cleaner - I even tried polish on it the other day and that eliminated the marks on it just as well. It needs very little maintenance.
I rate the mirror the full 5 dooyoo stars - I would definitely buy it again and think it was the perfect buy for what we needed. It's a reasonable price and a great value item as it's of high quality.
Thanks for reading :o)
The price I paid for this mirror is £20, this is a great price considering you get a full sized mirror with a wonderful oak finish and good quality mirror (glass). At after looking at the available finishes (black brown, oak, white, and white stained oak, birch) I decided to go for the black brown oak finish as it goes well with the hallway.
It performs to a very good standard size wise as it has the dimensions 1.6 metres long and 0.4 metres wide. I have no problem what so every looking from head to toe as it has very decent dimension, even the tallest of people will not have a problem with this mirror.
The quality of the frame is absolutely superb as it has a very tough feel to it and after 4 years of owning this mirror it has not suffer a single chip on the frame of a crack in the glass. This mirror is definitely made to last, but just by looking at the price of £20 you would not believe it one bit!!!!
This mirror does attract smudges easily so I try to avoid touching it as much as possible, however it is very easy to clean using a suitable cleaning product for the glass and frame.
I mounted mine in the hallway but I believe that this wardrobe would be great practically any where in the house even the bathroom.
Overall, I would recommend this product if you need a simple full length mirror that will last a large period of time. All you have to pay is £20 and its yours.
We have this Stave full length mirror from Ikea in our guest bedroom. I wanted to put a full length mirror in there as I think that it nice for guests, female guests especially, to have access to a full length mirror. I did only want a fairly cheap mirror as it isn't for our bedroom, and won't get an awful lot of use. Our guest bedroom furniture is also from Ikea; the Rykene bed and bedside tables. And so I wanted something that would match these. The Rykene furniture is a grey-brown colour wood, and the Stave mirror in the oak colour compliments the Rykene furniture perfectly.
The Stave full length mirror is also available in the following colours; birch, black-brown, white, white-stained oak, and then obviously the oak colour which we have. All of the colours are priced at just £20.
The Stave full length mirror stands 160cm tall, and 40cm wide. You can choose to have the mirror either wall mounted or free standing, we chose to just have ours free standing. If you do choose to wall mount the mirror then the mounting fittings are included, however the fixing devices i.e. the screws and wall plugs are not included as these will differ according to the type of wall that you will be mounting it on. If you do choose to wall mount the mirror you can either mount it vertically, horizontally, or even choose to have it hung vertically but only anchored to the wall at one side so that the mirror turns and tilts from the wall.
As I mentioned we have our mirror free standing, we have set it at a slight angle away from the wall, so that it tilts backwards against the wall. I think that it's fine and secure like this, and it seems fairly stable. The mirror comes with a sheet of safety film which you can apply to the glass if you wanted to. We haven't used this as I don't think that we need it, plus I didn't want to end up with the safety film application getting botched and there being creases and bubbles under the safety film. I do think that this is a good addition for peace of mind for some people though.
The mirror surround is made of wood (well I guess as close to wood as Ikea get!), and I have to admit that in the oak colour especially it does look quite expensive, and it certainly doesn't look cheap and tacky at all. I like that the design of the mirror is really sleek and simple, with just the slim oak wood surround to the mirror. It's a good usable size full length mirror, however it's not too big that it takes over the whole room.
The simple design and the choice of colours mean that this would work well in most room settings, and go with most decor. You could get a colour to match the rest of your furniture, or contrast with your furniture, or compliment your furniture like we did. This would also lend itself to being used in various rooms, the bedroom, bathroom, hallway etc.
This is easy to keep clean, I just wipe the surround over with a damp cloth, and just use a glass cleaner on the mirror itself.
My only slight gripe with the mirror is that it seems to be leaving marks on my cream walls where the top edge is resting against the wall. I guess that so long as I don't actually decide to move the mirror then this shouldn't really be a problem though.
Overall for just £20 I'd definitely recommend this full length mirror.
You might be beginning to think that all our furniture is from Ikea, and to be honest, you wouldn't be far wrong! This mirror is excellent quality for the price, and matches our wardrobes which were bought from....yes you've guessed it, Ikea!
The mirror is a full length mirror, with the exact dimensions being 160cm in height and 40cm wide. The mirror is available in several finishes, including birch, black-brown, oak, white, and white stained oak. It currently retails at £20 which is excellent value as the oak finish that we own looks better quality than the price tag suggests.
We have this mirror mounted on a wall next to our wardrobes, but it is possible to make it a tilting mirror if you so wish, and Ikea provide the hinges to make this possible. It does come with the fittings to allow you to hang this mirror, and other than removing the protective layer of film over the glass, you simply hang and it's ready to use.
The mirror looks really classy hanging on our wall, the edge of it is quite thick so rather than lying flat against the wall, it comes out by a good couple of inches. This just makes it look more solid and to be honest by the quality you'd never know it was £20 from Ikea. The depth is worth bearing in mind if you're short on space, however, as it does stick out from the wall a bit so if you're planning to hang it in a confined space it could potentially get knocked.
Size-wise, this mirror is perfect for my needs. I can see from head to foot without having to step to far back from the mirror, and this makes life easier when trying on outfits and checking my skirt isn't tucked into my knickers before leaving the house!
Cleaning the mirror is very easy, I use window cleaner on the glass, and a duster on the wooden frame. It does attract a bit more dust than some mirrors due to the depth of the frame, but this isn't a huge issue.
We have ours by our wardrobes, but it's useful to know that Ikea recommend this mirror as being suitable for use in high humidity areas. By this, I guess they mean the bathroom.
Overall, I am very happy with this mirror. It is big enough to get a good full length view of myself when I'm trying on outfits, although I can't blame the mirror for not always liking what I see! It looks good quality and is very sturdy. As it's from Ikea, you will also find other furniture items to match.

Solid pick, like his defense and an underrated shooter.
Should I be excited that our 2nd round pick may end up being better than our #2 overall pick??
We will be able to defend better on the perimeter that is for sure. I like this pick. He is a solid player and will be a good role player for a long time.
Really good shooter.
The cats had me excited for two days... Then poo the bed. You will never fill that building MJ
We may score 70 a game but only get scored 70 on
Sad thing is he could be a better player than MKG. Or is that a good thing.
so taylor, mkg to pair with brown and hendo..wings will have a tough time scoring on us at least..both starters and reserves. add biyombo to protect the rim...
Active Roster

When a silly, impulsive decision lands free-spirited India Shaw behind bars in San Francisco, she has no choice but to call the only person she knows in the unfamiliar city—the very man she abandoned after a steamy two-day fling. The fact that she's pregnant with his child is something she'd rather not divulge.
Tech executive Michael Black never thought he'd hear from the quirky beauty after she left his bed four months ago, much less be called upon to post bail. He's got his hands full with a corporate merger that could make or break his career, but his honorable nature—and an overwhelming need to see her again—means he can't just leave her in jail. And when India reveals the truth about her pregnancy, Mike insists she stay with him until the baby is born.
India doesn't want to depend on him for anything, but their constant proximity stirs up feelings she can't ignore. She's never desired a family before and she knows a future with Mike isn't possible . . . but then along came love to shake up all her plans.

Theo Walcott believes Robin van Persie is a shoo-in for the Player of the Year trophy.
Van Persie took his tally to a remarkable 33 goals in 38 appearances in the 2-1 win over Newcastle last night and Walcott said: "Without a doubt he has to be Player of the Year for me. Everything is going his way and that is great to see.
"The most important thing is that he is injury free. When I was on the treatment bed alongside him in previous years it was such a shame to see so much talent wasted.
"He has made up for lost time, I am sure of that, and it is massive. Does he give us an advantage over Tottenham and Chelsea? Well, you just give him anything and he will put it away — left foot, right foot and he has scored a couple of headers as well. He makes it look easy and it's really not.
"Wayne Rooney is still several goals behind him and has had a fantastic season as well. It just shows you how good this man is."
The winner of the Professional Footballers' Association award will be announced next month, while the Football Writers' trophy is awarded in May.
Walcott dropped a huge hint that he will extend his contract at Arsenal to continue developing his relationship with the Dutchman — which also suggests he thinks Van Persie will sign a new deal. The former Southampton trainee has two years left on his contract deal and speculation has been rife over his long-term future.
He is now back to his best form just a few weeks after being jeered by Arsenal fans — setting up Van Persie's equaliser and Thomas Vermaelen's injury-time winner last night.
Walcott added: "I like to do my talking on the pitch and if I just keep on playing well then I will see what comes. I like to let my agent deal with that side of things. This is maybe the second year that Robin and I have had a run together in the team.
"Hopefully, in the future I would like to play up front with him. That would be fantastic for me but if I am setting up goals then that is the most important thing. If he's enjoying what I am doing then that is great.
"If the staff and the coaches are happy, that's all I want. I'm enjoying playing football at the moment, I'm still only 22 — I turn 23 on Friday — so there is a lot to come from me.
"I feel great, I've never played so much in my life on a consistent level for 90 minutes."
Walcott certainly thinks Tottenham will be sweating now after Arsenal secured their fifth straight League win.
He added: "We want to win and make this club into the club it should be. It's been an up-and-down season but it's the way you finish that matters. We're breathing down Tottenham's necks now and, hopefully, they can feel it.
"Finishing third is important and, hopefully, we'll finish above them as well. That is an even bigger bonus."Reuse content

I work in a factory that manufacturers bearings for the aerospace industry. In my world, lubrication is critical and we use some pretty expensive lubricants. I can tell you that the amount of lube is probably more critical than the kind of lube you use, and....more is not better!
Since the early 70's I have always been a hoppes, Rem oil, white lithium grease kinda guy. I can not speak about the other brands but I'm a Gunzilla convert. I prefer spending my time shooting cooler running, smoother running, guns than spending time cleaning them. Based on their own posts the vast majority of those that disparage Gunzilla have not tried it. I believe that is called contempt prior to investigation. Or willing ignorance. The exact opposite of OldVet whose opinion I can respect. He tried it, does not seem to prefer it and that's fine that happens with any product and I can respect his conclusions as well. What I don't get it those that bad mouth a product they are totally ignorant of and have no knowledge or experience with. Than bad mouth those that have actually used the product and know what they are talking about. Used to be a attribute I credited immature little girls with having. Forming an opinion with no foundation in fact and than sticking to it despite all evidence to the contrary as a basis for their gossip. Stuck on Facts don't count they thought it so they must be right girly girl thinking.
I, as have others at least tried it not believing the claims. I in fact tried it with the intent on disproving them. Only to discover everything Gunzilla claims is more than true. BTW Gunzilla is cheaper than buying three or four other products to do what it does. Not to mention the time saving. But than those that do not know what they are talking about because they have not used it, would not know that.

tree topping
03/04/2011 in gardening
Why do people still do it?
I saw where a group of pear trees were getting ALL of their limbs cut off at mid height yesterday….
I failed to get a picture… But these trees were covered in bloom!
Ok… first question, hasn't anyone told the tree service to wait until the trees were done blooming before doing anything to them?
Second question… What did he think he was doing by topping any tree? When I first saw all those limbs on the ground, being loaded into the dump truck, I thought… ok, they're getting rid of some bradford pear trees… good idea… they are a short-lived nuisance at best…
But… they LEFT the trees AFTER cutting all the limbs off!
Doesn't anyone check with the extension service before doing something like that?
WHY are people still topping trees?
Topping trees destroys them… If you're going to cut all the limbs off the tree, go ahead and get that thing out… plant something more appropriate to the location… that tree will NEVER be anything after being topped…
Trees should never be topped. It destroys the branching control and the natural shape of the tree. Topping trees makes them ugly….
…From a pamphlet by the GA extension service…
They also never recover their natural appearance… Are prone to disease & storm damage…

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Nearly four months after thinking his career might be over, Jaret Wright is back -- and pitching well -- for the New York Yankees.
Wright won his first start since going on the disabled list because of shoulder pain, and Alex Rodriguez and Gary Sheffield homered Monday night, helping the Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 5-2 for their fifth straight victory.
"If I could have envisioned it, this is exactly what I would have envisioned," Wright said. "Coming in after three months and being able to compete and getting a win. It's a really good feeling."
Rodriguez homered for the third straight game, hitting a two-run, fourth-inning shot off Casey Fossum (6-9) to boost his American League-leading total to 36. Sheffield hit No. 25, a solo blast off reliever Travis Harper, for a 5-2 lead in the seventh.
But Wright (3-2) was the story for the Yankees, whose starting rotation has been in shambles because of injuries.
"He's one of the guys we counted on when spring training started," Yankees manager Joe Torre said. "He has basically had a long, boring road back because there wasn't a whole lot for him to do other than rest it and rehab it. Right now, he's tickled pink."
Pitching for the first time since April 23, the right-hander allowed two runs and four hits in 6 1/3 innings -- his longest outing of the season. He struck out two, walked one and hit three batters, including Jonny Gomes twice.
In between the plunkings, Gomes hit a solo homer off Wright in the fourth. The Devil Rays also scored on Toby Hall's RBI single in the fifth.
Tanyon Sturtze replaced Wright with two runners on and one out in the seventh, and Tom Gordon pitched a perfect eighth for the Yankees. Mariano Rivera, who also hit Gomes with a pitch, got the last three outs for his 32nd save, moving ahead of Jeff Reardon for fifth place on the career list with 368.
Wright had been on the DL since April 24, one day after leaving a loss against Texas. It was the eighth time he has been on the disabled list in his nine-year career, and the sixth because of a shoulder problem.
"Coming out of that game was a definite low point. I didn't know if I'd be able to throw again -- how it would play out," Wright said, crediting pitching specialist Billy Connors and trainer Mark Littlefield with helping him get back on track.
"The guys worked with me. ... We put in the time to give myself a chance to come back. It's just super to be back."
Monday's start was his fifth of the season, and second against Tampa Bay, which roughed up the right-hander for eight runs and 11 hits in 5 1/3 innings in the Yankees' 19-8 victory over the Devil Rays on April 18.
This time, Wright held the Devil Rays without a hit until Gomes homered with two outs in the fourth to trim New York's lead to 2-1.
"To be on the DL as long as he has, he came out and pitched well," Devil Rays manager Lou Piniella said. "We had a few chances. We didn't get hits when we needed them."
Rodriguez homered for the sixth time in nine games, hitting a towering shot to center field that hit one of the catwalks that support the dome at Tropicana Field, approximately 100 feet above the playing surface.
As he was circling the bases, Rodriguez was not sure if the ball -- picked up by centerfielder Joey Gathright -- was in play or had been ruled a homer. The New York star even slid into third base to beat Gathright's throw back to the infield before being waved home.
"I almost pulled a hamstring," an embarrassed Rodriguez said. "I was confused. I hit the ball, and then I saw the outfielder kind of stop. I said no way he's going to catch this. When I saw the ball on the field, I thought it was a live ball."
The Yankees added two unearned runs in the fifth. Bernie Williams doubled and scored when third baseman Alex Gonzalez booted Derek Jeter's ground ball for an error. Two batters later, Jeter trotted home on Sheffield's RBI single.
Fossum, who beaten the Yankees twice this season, allowed four runs and five hits in six innings. The Devil Rays starter struck out four and walked four before being replaced by Harper, who gave up the homer to Sheffield with two outs in the seventh.
- Jeter started at DH for the second time in his career. He was 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in his only other start at DH, July 7, 2002, vs. Toronto.
- To make room on the roster for Wright, the Yankees optioned left-handed reliever Wayne Franklin to Triple-A Columbus.

I think about that. I got married late in life and always lived alone, which kept me frosty. When I first got married, my wife was shocked to learn that if I was startled while asleep, my reaction was a cocked fist (fortunately not executed).
Now, after many years later of being ground down by family life, I sometimes don't even wake up when our kid jumps in bed with us.
Rambo, I am not.
I can only hope my increasing insomnia as I get older will allow me to already be awake when some poor, dumb BG targets my home.

I believe the only reason I can write this entry is due to the support of our Dogster Family. Our Kelly passed away in is sleep yesterday aroun 3:00 PM. Right now the only explantions are he had some sort of heart attack or aneurysm. We did ask for a through exam because he was only 5 years old, and the only thing we've been told so far is that he had a very "small" heart for his size and there was some inflammation in the muscles, tendons and ligaments around it. It will be about 2 weeks before we get any more information and I will post it as soon as we do.
Unfortunately, Kelly's beloved Tabitha - our last cat - has past away at the age of 18. Kelly continues to look for her, but I think he and Gracie knew something was not right that last day. Before, Kelly would sniff, drool, grab and rub his mouth and face all over Tabitha, but the afternoon before she past away he would only give a quick sniff and run away.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – The NAU swimming & diving team won both relays, both diving events, and nine individual races to cruise to a 178-119 win over new WAC foe Northern Colorado on Saturday in Wall Aquatic Center. The Lumberjacks are now 3-0 in duals this season and 9-0 all-time in duals against Northern Colorado.
"Our girls really enjoy racing in their home pool and I think that showed today," said NAU head coach Andy Johns. "A lot of different people were asked to step up and I think they did a great job of that. We were better than we were two weeks ago and way better than we were a month ago so that's nice to see."
Junior Emma Lowther and sophomore Caitlin Wright each won two individual events to lead the Lumberjack swimmers. Lowther won the first individual race, the 800 freestyle, in 9:14.88 and later added a win in the 100 butterfly in 1:04.74. Wright touched first in the 200 free in 2:09.27 in her first individual race of the day then won the 400 free in 4:34.69.
A pair of Lumberjack freshmen also won races as Brooke Brittain placed first in the 100 backstroke in 1:06.21 and Ellie Morrissey touched in 26.81 to win the 50 free. Morrissey also swam the lead leg in NAU's winning 400 free relay team in 4:25.09 with junior Rachel Palmer swimming the third leg and later winning the 200 individual medley in 2:24.33.
The diving boards were once again dominated by NAU senior Kristy Ardavanis, who won the 3-meter competition with a 308.25 score and then scored 290.78 to win the 1-meter. Junior Gwen Smithberg finished second on 3-meter at 282.98, a score that qualifies her for the NCAA Zone meet, and placed third on 1-meter at 257.33. The Lumberjacks took the top three spots on 1-meter as freshman Chelsea Jackson took second on the board at 258.08 after placing fifth on 3-meter.
Other individual event winners for the Lumberjacks were junior Andrea Derflinger with a winning time of 2:24.35 in the 200 fly and senior Kelsey Loy, who touched at exactly 1:00.00 to win the 100 free. Loy, Lowther, senior Fi Connell, and freshman Molly Elkins closed the meet with a winning time of 1:48.62 in the 200 free relay.
The Lumberjacks compete on consecutive days next weekend in the Pacific Northwest, starting with a meet at Washington State next Friday at 6 p.m.

ST. PETERSBURG — The memory of last year's Class A region final, penalty-kick loss to Lakeland Christian has motivated Shorecrest all season. After Tuesday night's 2-0 win over Calvary Christian, the Chargers earned a second straight trip to the region final and have a chance to erase a bad memory. Shorecrest (18-2) will host Community School of Naples on Friday.
"Last year's loss has motivated them since the first game," Shorecrest coach Neal Wolfrath said. "Of course, we had to win this game first. Now the region final is next on the agenda. And these girls want to go even further."
This was the fourth meeting between Shorecrest and Calvary Christian, which are both in District 6. In three previous matches, the Chargers outscored the Warriors 18-0.
But the fourth game was close throughout. Calvary Christian (14-6) had some early scoring chances but couldn't convert. In the 14th minute, the Chargers found the net.
Demi Tellios broke free on the right side of the field and crossed into the goal box. Jade Caswell was open and deflected the ball into the goal for a 1-0 lead. It could have been 2-0 just before the half but Skyler Ellenburg missed a penalty kick with 2:30 remaining.
Ellenburg made up for that miss in the second half when she blasted a shot from 25 yards out that sailed into the upper half of the goal with 31 minutes remaining to make it 2-0.
Calvary Christian had a near miss in the second half. Hannah Brookover took a shot from 20 yards out that looked like it would find an open goal. But the shot hit teammate Serena Szarejko and went wide.
"I think what it came down to was that it's hard to beat a team four times," Wolfrath said. "(Calvary) clearly has gotten better each game and made the adjustments. This game was every bit as close as the 2-0 score sounds."

Started on this build of Velma a couple weeks ago, usually I don't sketch a piece before I work on it especially if it's based on a pre existing character. The underlying armature allows for a multitude of poses, so I do I find myself numberswiki.com
deviating from the main pose even if I sketch it out. arms have been fleshed out (as seen in the pictures) though I can't decide on whether there should be a flashlight in her right hand or adjusting her hipster glasses with it.
also alternatively a zombiefied hand will be coming out of the grave to complete the effect. This model contains about 13 pieces.

Could This At-Home Stomach Pump Cure Obesity?
Aspiration Therapy places a tube from the patient's stomach to the surface of their skin that lets them manually drain out the food they've eaten.
Could the latest fad in weight loss be an at-home stomach pump, that allows people to empty themselves of food without using harmful methods like laxatives or binging/purging? Designed to be an alternative to a gastric bypass, Aspiration Therapy places a tube from the stomach to the surface of the skin to allow the person to manually pump out its contents.
This insertion takes place during a 20-minute outpatient procedure under conscious sedation and patients can usually return home within two hours. Only a small 1cm incision is needed to pull the tube through the surface of the skin from the stomach.
Once the skin has healed around the tube, a discreet Skin-Port is then attached to it outside the body, enabling the patient to begin aspirating and losing weight straight away.
A U.S. patent application from Aspire Bariatrics states that this method would allow obese patients to lose weight without undergoing drastic and invasive surgeries. The procedure is said to be easy to perform, easy to reverse, and allows obese patients to live a normal and active lifestyle with fewer adverse side effects.
New Scientist notes that it hasn't yet been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration but in early clinical trials some patients have lost around 20 kilograms in a year.

It didn't go the way we hoped for, UC's last trip to Freedom Hall but it was indeed their last time thier as the Cards prepare to move into thier new digs. So many memories over the years I'm curious as to what yours are? I think of all the games and both teams being ranked and playing a home and home which made the rivalry even more intense. I don't like the fact that's not an annual occurance anymore but blame it on the Big Beast.
Anyway here's to a historical building of hoops where so many games have become the basis of tall tales that grow annually; and now that the building will no longer house the 'Ville, the stories will grow beyond life size. UC and U of L are both struggling this year and that just doesn't seem right as they were always kings of the hill in the past but with the creation of mega-conferences that is a thing of the past.
But here's to all the games good and bad, historical and not so, and to the memories of a place I've had the pleasure of watching many a game. Freedom Hall has given way to suite deals and corporate influence and hopefully in the transition the game of basketball will maintain its rightful place as the main attraction. In Kentucky the thorobreds should always have center stage on the track and on the court. That's the way I see it...Sitting In The Box Seat

Hearth Homes sales manager Liam Milne comes straight to the point when speaking about the design concept of 39 Borealis Bay.
"This home was designed expressly to meet the needs of empty-nesters," he said of the 1,615-square-foot bungalow with walk-out lower level, sited on an oversized walk-out lot deep in Sage Creek. "The idea behind the design was to create a home that was perfect for entertaining and family get-togethers, all without sacrificing the practicality that's the trademark of every Hearth Home."
The first thing that hits you when you walk in the house is its expansiveness and bright, cheery interior. That open, well-lit ambience is no accident, Milne said.
"We put in a vaulted ceiling overhead to maximize both light flow and the feeling of space, and that feature has been a major crowd-pleaser. Everyone who's gone through the home loves it because it gives you an open, expansive feel without being too crazy. It's high, but not so high that the great room feels like an echo chamber."
Although the great room feels open and flows beautifully, each space -- kitchen, dining area and family room -- are distinct spaces, thanks to design techniques that create subtle segmentation.
For starters, the island kitchen, whose centrepiece is a five-foot by five-foot grey/burgundy granite island with seating for two -- is segmented from the dinette area by a raised peninsula that contains an eating nook for three on its outer portion.
The adjacent dinette area is likewise defined by the peninsula, but possesses enough space so there's a buffer area between the two that ensures they don't butt up against each other. There's more buffer space between the family room, which is defined neatly by a one-third maple-capped wall that also contains the great room's pièce de résistance -- a see-through, two-sided fireplace.
"It's a focal point that defines the space," Milne said. "At the same time, the space isn't closed off from the rest of the great room, so you've got the best of both worlds -- definition, yet great flow into the kitchen and dining area."
As well, a literal rear wall of glass lets natural light flow in sans obstructions.
"There's a floor-to-ceiling window in the family room that lets in so much light that even on the gloomiest day, it's still cheerful inside," he said. "To temper all the light, we put in Cape Cod maple hardwoods (a medium-brown/grey stain) to warm things up. Then there's an enclosed (three-season) sunspace off the dining area that extends the living area, and that provides a place to dine or hang out without being bothered by mosquitoes and other annoying flies."
Milne noted there's a neat little room tucked away to the left of the foyer at the front of the home.
"We put in what we call a pocket office (with French doors). It's functional, yet it doesn't take up a lot of space. You can go in there and do your bills in a dedicated space. It makes a lot of sense."
Then there's the master suite, which embodies everything a master suite should be -- private and functional, with a tasteful touch of luxury.
"Its highlight, to me, is its uplifting, bright and spacious ensuite," Milne said. "The floor is (chocolate-tinted) cork, which is soft, warm and doesn't need to be heated. Then we put in a corner soaker tub with light-taupe porcelain tile surround beneath an oversize transom window next to a five-foot tile shower with frameless tempered-glass surround. A white (maple) vanity with (grey/burgundy) granite countertop finishes it off in subtle style."
A step or two down the hallway that leads to the bedroom is a big, walk-in closet with Hearth's trademark honey-stained pine built-in storage racks. Next is the bedroom itself.
"To maximize the wetland view, we put in a wall-wide window made up of one five-foot-square window and two two-foot by five-foot windows either side," he explained. "The view is spectacular, and the bedroom itself is just a nice size, with room for a window seat, two end tables and a dresser."
The home's bright, cheery, well-finished ambience extends to the walk-out lower level, which offers 1,018 square feet of well-proportioned space.
"This might be my favourite area of the home because it's just so functional and strikes such a good balance between brightness and warmth. It starts off with a wet bar to the left of the stairs that provides the warmth with its smoke-stained oak cabinets (that surround the bar) and brown/black granite countertop. It's next to a games area that leads to patio doors that take you out to a big, covered patio."
To the right of the games area is an open media room next to a huge picture window that perfectly frames the wetland view. An exercise room off the rec room provides another wetland view through a massive wall-wide window (same as in the master suite), and a wing to the rear of the rec room contains another (huge) bedroom, four-piece bath, mechanical/storage room and a laundry room of epic proportions.
"It's a great, functional space that everyone loves with all its space, cabinets and light," Milne said. "This home sold the first week it was for sale, which is a testament to how well it was designed."

Portland riots after two police murders
March 30, 2010
For the second consecutive week a black bloc caused havoc in Portland in response to two police murders in the last two months. Aaron Campbell in late January, and Jack Dale Collins on March 22nd. According to Portland IMC's timeline, the marchers evaded police, went through campus buildings at Portland State University, blockaded streets, smashed the window of a Bank of America, and finally made their way to a "justice center" where prisoners inside could be seen "showing solidarity fists, banging on the windows." 8 people were arrested during the march.
Joel Dow, an anarchist arrested last week, is still in jail after his bail was set to an absurd $259,000.
Victoria students turn quad into Urban Garden
March 28, 2010
Last week hundreds of students in Victoria, BC celebrated planting season by occupizing the quad of their school, ripping up the lawn and turning it into fertile soil. The aim of the project was to bring the community together produce food for their own resources. On Friday, the administration destroyed the 10 new garden plots, arresting one student who stood in the path of one of their bulldozers. Students have responded by storming the office of the administrator who ordered the destruction, and also vow to replant the gardens once again.
More information on their blog.

Today begins a week of actions across Europe to block the Bologna Process, a massive scheme for gutting public education across Europe by standardizing the commodification of education. An Indymedia page in English provides some more details:
Between March 11 and 12, about 50 education ministers from all over europe and beyond, will gather in vienna and budapest to celebrate the 10 anniversary of bologna process.(Infos in: fr, de, tr)
Considering the current situation, the autumn and winter occupations and the ongoing protests in many Universities in Europe, South Africa, California (articles Indymedia Los Angeles) – is this celebration a mockery for all of us.
The bologna process is directly linked to the lisabon treaty which enforces the eurpean unions psychotic plan the transform this habitat into the most competitive place in the world resourced by the "product" knowledge.

Sussex occupied AGAIN
March 11, 2010
From http://defendsussex.wordpress.com/:
We, the students of the Stop the Cuts campaign, have assembled in Arts A2, in response to the actions of the management, specifically the arbitrary suspension and exclusion of 6 students by the Vice Chancellor last week. These students were not violent, and the demonstration in no way merited the presence of riot police on campus. There has been a widespread response from both outside and inside the university condemning this action as disproportionate. These students are part of a wider campaign involving hundreds of students and workers, which continues to be against the compulsory redundancies of staff at Sussex, and to defend public services nationally.
In order to leave here today, our demands are:
1. The unconditional reinstatement of the six students who were suspended and excluded last week – the terms outlined in the statement on Sussex Direct today were not good enough.
2. No disciplinary action against anyone in the room.
3. No punishment of non-violent dissent, no criminalisation of any form of non-violent protest, demonstrations or occupations.

From Berkeley Liberation Radio.
Following Thursday, March 4th's Berkeley to Oakland march and rally at Frank Ogawa Plaza for the statewide strike and day of action against budget cuts, layoffs and furloughs to public education, a second march commenced. 200-250 students, educators, and activists marched from the close of the rally to the exterior of Mark Yudof's office for a street dance party. The group then made their way toward the I-880 freeway, where 150-200 elected to enter on foot to shut down traffic.
All traffic slowed to a stop, and no individuals were in in any danger of being struck by automobiles. The riot police pursued them as they hopped over barriers in an attempt to make their way to the Jackson street off-ramp. As police closed in, most of the group sat down in anticipation of being arrested.
The police were violent with many of the protesters, using excessive force with their riot batons. None of the arrested were reported to be carrying weapons of any kind, and none were attempting to attack any of the officers. The police shut down the freeway in both directions, handcuffed and escorted the marchers to the Jackson street offramp where police busses slowly arrived to take the prisoners to North County and Sana Rita Jail facilities.
155 individuals were reported to have been arrested, in addition to some minors who were released into the custody of their parents. Francois Zimany was taken to the hospital after either falling, jumping, or being pushed by police off of the freeway, and is now at home with his family. The group was held over night, and released periodically throughout the day on Friday.

-Walk-Out / Indoor demo at CUNY Hunter:
At 1pm students and supporters gathered on the 3rd floor of the 68th street campus. There was a large police presence inside and outside the building. Students attempted to move toward the upper part of the building to get more students to participate but were blocked by campus security. Scuffles broke out as students forced their way past a campus guard and took to the stairwells.
Word has it that, inside the building, the financial aid office had its windows broken, and the much hated security turnstiles at the entrance to the building were attacked and broken.
Before the demo, signs were posted up on the 3rd floor saying that the indoor demo would not be permitted but the simultaneous rally called by the International Socialist Organization (ISO) and others would be. There are also rumors that 'Student Activists' were warning other students via text message that unpaid agent provocateurs would be coming to Hunter to cause a riot (more on this when we get confirmation). A New School Student supporting the Hunter walkout was ejected from the building possibly after being pointed out by an ISO activist (there have been conflicting reports).
Students and allies marched through Hunter's walkways, to the cheering of students standing by, many of whom joined in. The INDOOR DEMO proceeded to the 3rd floor:
The police were in full force blocking the escalators but at least 40 students broke through into the back stairwell and surged up the stairs, only to find yet more police on every single floor blocking every door.
While some ran through the building urging students to walk out of their classes, others began to urge people to leave the building and attend the rally outside. A few scuffles broke out between people involved in the walkout and those running the permitted rally. 3 or 4 individuals have supposedly been arrested inside of CUNY Hunter.
Eventually enough people were pushed out of the building by the police or by Organizers who wanted to have the rally and talk at the crowd:
More info soon…
-Brooklyn College:
Hundreds participated in a successful teach in that will hopefully build up to larger actions in the future.
– CUNY Graduate Center
about 30 Graduate Students (also adjunct professors) from the CUNY Grad Center arrived with allies at school this morning, to see five black cop cars parked in front of the building and the cafeteria filled with police. The students, however, were headed towards the elevators (the only means of entering the building), and filled them with their angry bodies, blocking entrance to the elevators while others spoke to people about the cuts, their shitty jobs, and encouraged folks to go to Hunter College. One of the elevators was boarded by a plainclothes police officer who shoved one of the students to the floor. He stayed in the elevator, harassing the students for their names and calling them cowards while the students hurled insults. He left the elevator only when the students exited to find support.
CUNY Grad Center Students also executed a banner drop, small but real (LUV U RIVERSIDE), with only more to come.
The Grad Students exited unscathed and immediately went to join the Hunter walkout.
– Centralized Rally
-There is currently a heavily policed and relatively small march making its way to the MTA hearings at F.I.T.
–SUNY Purchase is Occupied!
occupation still going, it needs support!

MTA Hearing Turns Rowdy In Brooklyn
March 4, 2010
NY1 – Four people were arrested Wednesday night after an argument broke out at a Metropolitan Transportation Authority hearing in Brooklyn.
It happened inside the Cantor Auditorium of the Brooklyn Museum.
Police say a speaker was led away and later handcuffed after she went up to the podium to try and speak out of turn. She was asked to stop and when she didn't, witnesses say she was taken outside.
"I have no connection to her, but I just felt an adult or someone should be involved because she looked like she was probably under 18," said one witness. "And then he really started rough-handling her and really kind of backed her out. So then I followed her and I followed him and I kept saying 'Why are you doing it? What's going on? Why isn't any adult involved?' And then he took her around and locked the door behind her."
Others in the audience got involved, too. Some were led out into the hallway and handcuffed. One was cuffed inside the auditorium.
In all, four people were arrested for disorderly conduct.

Former editor, community leader McQuiddy dies
Arthur Robert McQuiddy, former editor of the Roswell Morning Dispatch and longtime community leader, died Tuesday afternoon.
McQuiddy, 95, gained international fame for being the newspaper editor during the 1947 Roswell UFO incident, but locally he was known as a strong advocate for many local organizations and institutions.
"He always had a smile on his face and probably was the most knowledgeable person there was about the UFO incident of anybody around," said Charles Fischer, publisher of the Roswell Daily Record. "If you ever met him, he made everybody's day feel brighter."
In 1948, he left the newspaper to become public relations director of the New Mexico Oil and Gas Association and later joined U.S. Steel as director of media [auth] relations.
In the early 1980s, he returned to Roswell after retiring as senior vice president for corporate relations at International Harvester. McQuiddy was very well known outside Roswell.
McQuiddy also has an Internet Movie Data Base entry for his role in "The Roswell Incident," a 1995 TV documentary where he played himself.
McQuiddy was born in Sedalia, Mo., in 1918. After serving as a Naval aviator during World War II, he moved to Roswell in 1946 to become the editor of the Roswell Morning Dispatch.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Aleen Hinkle McQuiddy, who was a native of Roswell and was the granddaughter of pioneer New Mexico Gov. James Fielding Hinkle.
After returning to Roswell in the early '80s, McQuiddy served as president of the Chaves County Historical Society, which is now the Historical Society for Southeast New Mexico. He also served on the boards of the United Way, the Roswell Symphony, the Roswell Museum and Arts Center, the state of New Mexico Humanities Commission and the New Mexico Rehabilitation Center Foundation.
He also served as director of Conventions and Visitors Bureau and Economic Development specialist for Roswell through the Chamber of Commerce.
"Whether you knew it or not, he probably touched most of the people's lives in Roswell, either through his work on the museum, the Walker Museum, the rehab center at base, and the historical society," Fischer said.
"Art McQuiddy and his wife, Aleen, returned to Roswell following a successful corporate career," said Phelps Anderson, president of Sun Valley Energy. "Art contributed his time and energy to making Roswell a better community."
McQuiddy was unselfish in his many causes to build a better place to live, Anderson said. "He was a veteran who served his country during a time of war, and he was a proud American."
A date has not yet been announced for the memorial service.
Arrangements are being handled by Ballard Funeral Home.
"Art McQuiddy lived a long life with great achievements and all of us who knew him were blessed to know such a great American," Anderson said.

The pool table layout on pocket billiards tables is pretty standard. Tables come in different sizes, usually 7, 8, or 9 feet long, but all are setup similarly.
The table is basically divided into a head and foot area, with the breaking being done from the head area, and the rack situated as shown in the foot area.
The section between the head rail and head string is called the kitchen. Anywhere in this section is where the cue ball is placed when first breaking or after a scratch.
The following diagram shows the different components of the pool table playing surface. The dotted lines of the head string, foot string, and rack are not actually marked on the table, but the head and foot spots usually are.
