Mintage of only 1,080,000 coins!
This key date 90% Silver 1921 Denver Mercury Dime is in Almost Good condition.
Reviewed by 1 customers
Sort by
I ordered this 21-D, along with a 21 and a certified 16-D, to complete a Mercury Dime collection. I thought the price of this one was reasonable. I put a note in asking if possible to send one that had a legible date and mint mark. I have seen some mint marked Mercs that you could barely distinguish either, so I was giving fair warning of my expectations. The one I received was in slightly better shape than the picture Apmex posts for the 21-D. The lower part of the "1" in 1921 was worn, but easily confirned as 1921, and the "D" was not filled in like the picture, and completely visible, better than the sample picture. The coin itself was "About Good", so a rough coin, but I got just a bit more than I expected. A very good job on Apmex part!

All is not lost.
A division championship, a first-round bye in the playoffs, a conference championship are all within reach as IUP enters the last week of the regular season.
IUP lost to Gannon, 67-62, on Saturday night and fell out of first place in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West Division. Six teams qualify for the conference tournament, with first-round byes going to the top two teams.
To take the smoothest path to that bye, IUP must beat Mercyhurst on Wednesday at the Kovalchick Convention and Athletic Complex. The Crimson Hawks (20-3, 10-3 PSAC West) and Lakers (14-9, 10-3) are tied for second place with three games to play. Gannon holds first place at 11-3 with two games to play.
"Players are often more resilient than coaches or fans," IUP coach Joe Lombardi said. "The ability to get back to practice and compete in practice allows you to move forward. All year we talk about the next play. When you win, you move on to the next play. When you lose, you move on to the next play. When you turn it over, you move on to the next play. When you make a great shot, you move on to the next play.
"Sports is all about moving on. We're still in position to win a division championship — we control our own destiny — and that's our goal. But more than that, we try to deal in small, short-term goals, and that's win practice today, and whatever challenges there are, to address those and then try to meet the challenges Wednesday."
Mercyhurst has offered stiff challenges for IUP over the past three seasons. The Lakers beat IUP two straight games at home before the Hawks snapped that streak on Jan. 11, holding on for a 53-50 victory after leading by as many as 13 points.
"They play great matchup defense, and it's different than what anyone else plays, so the uniqueness of it adds to the strong fundamentals they already have with it," Lombardi said. "You need guys to read the floor and make good decisions. That's the challenge on the defensive end, and offensively they have a lot of balance, and you have to do a good job with the scouting report and know a lot of different personnel. They run a lot of different plays or sets, so you have to have good mental preparation in order to anticipate what might be coming.
"They're also a team that has won a lot of close games this year. They know how to win close games, and there's a lot of value in that. They know how to come back — they fought back up there, and they were down 12 or 13 to Edinboro the other night — so they're a resilient group and a group with great intangibles."
Mercyhurst has won six of its past seven games. Nine of the Lakers' 14 wins have come by seven or fewer points, and one other came in overtime. They also have five close losses.
IUP's three losses have come by a total of 14 points, including one in overtime. The Hawks' win at Mercyhurst was their last in a 14-0 start.
"A lot of time we try to focus just as much, if not more, on who we are and what we're trying to accomplish on both ends and playing with passion on every possession," Lombardi said. "We've done that really well in some games, and some games not as well. We also have to play through different failures that come during the course of a game so they don't stack up and just keep turning the tide and continue to compete on every possession."
While the top two teams in each PSAC division, West and East, earn byes, the other teams play in the first round. The third-place team takes on the sixth-place team, and the fourth-place team faces the fifth-place team. The highest seeds get home games.
After the first round, the 4-5 winner plays at the first-place team, and the 3-6 winner plays at the second-place team. The semifinals and finals will be contested at the highest remaining seed in the PSAC East.
"Getting the bye is really not something I spend a whole lot of time thinking about," Lombardi said. "If I do, then I'm not thinking about how our team needs to get better and not thinking about the challenge the next opponent brings. But I guess a bye means you've automatically won your first game, so anytime you can automatically win a game, I guess you'd like to have it. But I really spend no time worrying about seeding or home-court advantage. If you do those things as a coach and place importance on them and then they don't happen, then you've already set up the message that you're extremely disadvantaged since you didn't get it."

Rhinoplasty Gone Bad - So Miserable - Where Did my Tip Go? - Austin, TX
Hello everyone. Never in my life did I expect this...
Front view
Old v. New
New nose
Rhinoplasty Revision Needed
I finally picked a doctor and got the procedure I have been waiting my whole life to do. Yet the results were not what I expected nor what I discussed with my doctor. I am beyond horrified! My new nose looks nothing like my original nose and that was something I made clear I did not want. Can ANYONE help me find an experienced rhinoplasty revision surgeon. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE. I am so depressed since the surgery and I cannot believe I did this to myself. My surgeon promised me he would do SUBTLE changes yet after looking at the picture, I've realized that he did too much work on my nose. I do not like the shape (it's pointy), I do not like that he pushed my bone in (the scooped out look) and I do not like that he lifted my nose. Where did my tip go???????

This is going to be a very personal post, full of reflections on the death just yesterday of my Father-in-Law. But before I get into that, being me, I have to begin with a very important point of Bible understanding. For I know that many Christians feel secretly guilty for the fact they are grieving. They ask themselves, "why am I crying when I know that my loved one has gone to a better place?"I hope to reassure all of my readers who are currently in mourning, and every single one of you w … [Read more...]
An Old Poem on the paradox of so-called "freedom"
When I was younger I used to write poems. I can't remember the last time that I wrote one. I found this when doing some clearing up yesterday at home. I have to try and tidy the room that has doubled as a family "den" and my study so that we can get my son Henry in there soon as it is now going to be his bedroom. One major advantage of tidying (tho it does not come easy to me I have to say!) is that you come across odd things from a bygone era that you thought you had long thrown away. I … [Read more...]

A year on, and a return to the other country
I have had the pleasure of traveling fairly widely thanks to my job. I travel so often, and at times for such short periods, that I don't always mention on the blog when I am away.

"Jesus was dead what's your excuse?" Guest Post from Mrs Warnock
When reading the story of the resurrection in the gospel of John, my friends and I (all ladies) noticed a small detail which showed yet another way in which Jesus is our ultimate example. Jesus, having been crucified, spent three days dead in the tomb, was resurrected, and did not think twice about neatly folding his grave clothes before departing the tomb. He didn't just step out of them like some men do with their trousers! Jesus didn't make any excuses but tidied up after himself.Now, Ad … [Read more...]

Bringing warmth to a fathers heart
One of my children came downstairs, after being in their room for ages yesterday, with the following list of verses. They had obviously spent a long time going thru a bible looking at highlighted verses and choosing, as they put it, their "favorite ones".

15 years of marriage to the best woman on Earth for me
Mrs Warnock and I have enjoyed married life for 15 years today. As I reflect on those years I thought I would share some of those thoughts with you. Truth be told, marriage has been both the most challenging and the most rewarding thing I have ever done. As society seeks to destroy family life, it is crucial that we fight for a true understanding of something that reflects the heart of God himself. Through marriage I have become more aware of my own weaknesses and sin. I have grown i … [Read more...]

Decorate with a vision in mind when you are not really sure what you like or most importantly how you want to feel in your space. If you don't know where to begin decorating your space go visit your nearest fabric store and pull out prints and colors that strike an emotion in you. Not the THIS IS THE UGLIEST thing ever kind of emotion, right? More like, I like this but I'm not sure how I'd use it.
Take your fabric samples and play with color schemes, patterns, and textures. Don't sweat over it. You'll FEEL what works for you. By creating your vision for the overall space you may find it easier to select your paint colors, bedding, or begin with a few select pieces.
Here are a few of my recent loves for boy and girl spaces and that calming living space.

ipod integration kit
Does anyone know where I can find this kit? I can't believe Mopar decided to discontinue this item.
Re: ipod integration kit
I'm going with this kit for mine.
Re: ipod integration kit
watch ebay. i picked mine up on there. they didn't have it listed with part number so i just searched mopar ipod. (part number 82209617AD) The one i got ended up being an earlier revision 82209617AC and it worked fine. it was out of a 2005 300.
Re: ipod integration kit
Just was about to buy that ipod kit on ebay I posted a link to earlier and noticed it says it will not work if your vehicle is equipped with U-connect.
Anyone have some kind of ipod solution with an RAQ radio and U-connect?
Re: ipod integration kit
That may work for you.
Re: ipod integration kit
I'll report back with my findings.
Re: ipod integration kit
Went home for lunch today and installed the isimple.
It was exactly that simple, took me 30 mins to install.
Here's a crude writeup:
Flathead screwdriver or pry tool
Soft cloth
Phillips screwdriver
Electrical tape
Disconnect negative battery terminal
Pop off the radio trim and vets, 5 clips total 2 on each side of the vents and one in the bottom center. I pried with the screwdriver wrapped is the cloth on one side of the vents pulling outward toward the rear of the car. Pop off rest of the clips.
Unscrew 4 black screws holding the radio to bracket
Unplug harness from rear of radio and connect the iSimple to the harness and then to the rear of the radio.
I do not have sirius so I taped off the harness on the iSimple for that. There is also a 12v wire you can tap to 12v lighting to illuminate the iSimple module. I was putting the module inside the dash out of sight so I taped off the 12v wire.
I zip tied the iSimple module and associated wires to the stock harness and tucked it all behind the radio.
I ran the ipod cable down to the floor along the inside of the center console and out the bottom for now. I plan to construct some sort of dock or bracket for the ipod in the near future.
Uconnect works just the same as it did prior to install.
Mode button switches radio to DVD mode with two options Chp 1 or Chp 2. Chp 1 is the ipod cable, chp2 is the aux RCA cable input on the iSimple.
Steering wheel controls and radio face skip songs back and forward for whatever playlist you are in.
It charges my the ipod as well (in my case an iphone 4s)
I'm very happy with the product and would recommend it. Audio quality is great.
I'll hopefully have a nice writeup with my custom install in a few weeks.
Re: ipod integration kit
Re: ipod integration kit
My uconnect button is on the rear view mirror.
You have two options with this unit. One is to hook up any ipod with the supplied ipod dock cable. The other option is to hook up any audio source via the auxiliary RCA inputs.
I do not have VES but in order to install this you must unplug the VES. With some creative wiring I'd assume you could convert your VES output to RCA and attach it via the aux RCA plugs.
I have the navigation and my uconnect on my rear view mirror too. But my VES is taken by the dvd player in the back seat
Re: ipod integration kit
Need help ASAP. I hooked up the iSimple ISCH73. everything works fine except when I plug the dvd player for the back seat. Then the mode button stops working and so does the VES. If anyone has any suggestions to a quick fix I'm open to them. thanks
Re: ipod integration kit
You can't use the VES and the isimple. If you installed the isimple only the headphones will work for the VES.

T-Birds Host Griz On Senior Night
Related Links
Southern Utah's men's basketball team wraps up its 2012-13 home schedule Monday night when the Thunderbirds host Big Sky-leading Montana.
The game will be the final home contest for five SUU seniors, Damon Heuir, Jordan Johnson, Tyson Koehler, Julian Scott and Jackson Stevenett.
The Thunderbirds (11-16/8-9 Big Sky) will be looking to right the ship after dropping four straight conference games. The Thunderbirds have a challenge ahead of them if they want to earn a Big Sky Conference tournament berth in their first season in the league, as their three remaining games pit them against league-leading Montana at home, at Northern Colorado which is also fighting for tournament berth, and at North Dakota, which wrapped up a berth last week.
SUU heads into the game - and the final week of regular-season play - all alone in fifth place in the Big Sky, a half-game behind Northern Colorado, which won at Portland State on Saturday, and a half-game ahead of Montana State, Northern Arizona and Sacramento State.
Montana (20-6/16-1 Big Sky) held off Montana State on Saturday night, 71-68, to remain atop the BSC standings, a half-game ahead of Weber State, which won at Northern Arizona on Saturday. The Grizzlies, who have won 16 of their last 18 games, had a 14-game winning streak snapped with a loss at Weber State on Feb. 14. They bounced back from that defeat with a win at Idaho State, then lost in overtime on BracketBuster weekend at Davidson before notching the win at Montana State.
The Game: Montana (20-6/16-1) at Southern Utah (11-16/8-9), Monday at 7:05 p.m. in the Centrum Arena (5,200), Cedar City, Utah.
The Series: Montana holds a 6-5 edge in the series which began with an 83-50 UM win in 1983, but the Thunderbirds are 3-2 vs. the Grizzlies in Cedar City, including a 74-65 victory in the last meeting in the Centrum, back in the 1999-2000 season. The Griz claimed a 73-67 win in the last meeting between the two schools, last month in Missoula, Mont. The Thunderbirds' last win in the series came during the 2000-01 season when they edged the Griz, 89-87, in Missoula.
TV: There will be no live television coverage of the game.
Radio: All of Southern Utah men's basketball games are broadcast live by KSUU (91.1 FM). Art Challis is in his 40th season as the Thunderbirds' basketball play-by-play voice. Dr. Challis - chair of SUU's Department of Communication - is joined on home and selected road broadcasts by former SUU standout and current SUU VP for University Relations Dean O'Driscoll.
On The Internet: Video web-streaming coverage of all of Southern Utah's home games and Big Sky road games is available on Big Sky TV, at www.bigskytv.org. Audio of all SUU games is available by logging on to the Thunderbird website at www.suutbirds.com or at www.power91radio.com.
Live Stats: Live stats of Southern Utah's home games are available on the SUU website at www.suutbirds.com. Real-time live stats of SUU's home games are available to working media, contact the athletic media relations office for access information.
Video Highlights: Video highlights of the Thunderbirds' home games is available to accredited media outlets via SUU's FTP site. For information on obtaining those highlights contact SUU Director of Athletic Media Relations Neil Gardner.
Practice Schedule: The practice schedule calls for the Thunderbirds to work out daily at 3:15 p.m. in the Centrum Arena.
Media Availability: Players and coaches will be available Tuesdays at 2:30 p.m.
Coming Up: SUU closes the regular season with a trip to Northern Colorado and North Dakota this week, playing UNC on Thursday and UND on Saturday. The Big Sky Conference tournament begins March 14 at either Montana or Weber State, depending on which team claims the regular-season title.
Thunderbird Club Luncheons: The Thunderbird Club's weekly no-host luncheon is held Mondays at noon at the Cedar City Crystal Inn. The public is invited to attend the luncheons where Southern Utah's in-season coaches talk about their upcoming contests and review the past week's action.
Captains: This year's captains are seniors Jackson Stevenett and Tyson Koehler.
Heuir Named BSC Player of the Week: SUU's Damon Heuir earned his second Big Sky Conference Player of the Week award following his play in the Thunderbirds' home wins over Sacramento State and Northern Arizona. Heuir averaged 27.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game in the two wins. He scored 28 points with seven rebounds, seven assists and a steal in the team's 79-67 win over Sacramento State, then scored 27 points with four rebounds, an assist and a steal two nights later against the Lumberjacks. Heuir's first BSC Player of the Week award came after he scored 30 points to lead SUU to its first road win of the season, a 90-77 victory at Northern Arizona on Jan. 5. That week he shared the honors with Weber State's Scott Bamforth.
The Coaches:
Head Coach Nick Robinson (Stanford, 2005) is 11-16 in his first season at SUU and his first season as a head coach. Coach Robinson came to Southern Utah from LSU, where he spent three seasons on the staff. Prior to his time at LSU Robinson spent a season at William Jewell College and two seasons on the staff at his alma mater, Stanford. During his time as an assistant coach, Robinson helped guide his teams to a combined record of 87-47 and four post-season appearances, including two NCAA, one NIT and one NAIA Division I national tournaments. Robinson is 0-1 vs. Montana.
Robinson is assisted by Jared Barrett (Eastern Oregon, 1996), Todd Okeson (Nevada, 2005) and Drew Allen (Southern Utah, 2010).
Wayne Tinkle (Montana, 2005) is in his seventh season as a head coach, all at Montana. He will take a record of 136-77 into Monday's game. Montana assistant coach Kerry Rupp played at SUU from 1975 to 1977 and is eighth on the school's all-time scoring list. Coach Tinkle is 1-0 vs. SUU.
Affiliations: Southern Utah is in its first season as a member of the Big Sky Conference. All of SUU's sports except gymnastics and men's golf compete in the Big Sky. Gymnastics is an affiliate member of the WAC while men's golf competes in the American Sky Conference. Montana is a charter member of the Big Sky.
The Schedule: The Thunderbirds have played 10 non-conference games, four at home, four true road contests, and two neutral court match-ups. They have played eight conference games at home and eight on the road. SUU opened at #21 Gonzaga, then played three games in three days at the World Vision Classic, meeting Green Bay, Cal State Fullerton and host Nevada before opening its home schedule against Carroll College. SUU also played non-conference games at TCU, at Denver, and at home against San Diego Christian, San Diego and Cal State Northridge.
Last Time Out: Jackson Stevenett scored 19 points and pulled down six rebounds while Jayson Cheesman had 11 and five but Montana State came from behind to stun the Thunderbirds, 62-61, in a critical Big Sky game for both teams. SUU had a chance to solidify its hold on fourth place in the BSC standings but with the loss the Thunderbirds allowed MSU and Northern Arizona to pull into a three-way tie at 8-9 in league play. SUU led from the opening basket but the Bobcats didn't ever trail by more than nine. Montana State got its first lead of the game when Antonio Bigelow picked off a steal and drove for a layup to give MSU a 62-61 advantage with 1:11 to play. That layup proved to be the final basket of the game, and the final points of the game, as both teams missed shots and committed turnovers in the final minute. SUU had one last chance when Damon Heuir stole the ball from Bigelow with :03 seconds to go but the Thunderbirds wound up not getting off a shot. SUU held MSU to .359 shooting, including .265 in the first half, and shot .458 itself but the Bobcats owned a 41-31 rebounding advantage and were able to take advantage of 14 SUU turnovers. Paul Egwuonwu came off the bench to score 14 points and pull down 13 rebounds as the Bobcats had 17 offensive boards which contributed to 16 second chance points. Christian Moon scored 17 points to lead four MSU players in double figures.
T-Birds In The National Ranks: The Thunderbirds have two players ranked in three categories in the NCAA's top-100, and the team ranks among the top 100 in three categories as well. After hitting all six of his free throw attempts vs. Cal State Northridge and 4-of-4 vs. Montana State Jackson Stevenett moved from 14th to eighth in free throw percentage at .892. Stevenett also ranks 43rd in scoring (17.9 ppg) while Jayson Cheesman ranks 43rd in blocks per game with an average of 2.15.

Moving Up The Ranks:
Jackson Stevenett is one of just three T-Birds to currently rank among SUU's career top-10 in both scoring and rebounding. With his 19 points against Montana State Stevenett has 1,210 points in his three-plus seasons as a Thunderbird, good for sixth on SUU's career scoring sheet. He passed a pair of former Thunderbirds on the list on Thursday night: current Montana assistant Kerry Rupp, who tallied 1,198 points from 1975 to 1977, and former teammate Davis Baker who finished his career (2007-10) with 1,205 points. Stevenett also has 475 career rebounds, which ranks 10th all time at SUU. He needs 18 to pass Dana Achtzehn (1990-92) for ninth place on the list and 24 to pass Lew Christensen (1965-69) for eighth. The only other two players currently in the top-10 in both scoring and rebound are Richard Barton and Robert "Dunn" Lee. Barton is second on SUU's career scoring list with 1,419 points and fourth on its rebounding list with 557 while Lee is second in rebounding with 652 boards and fifth in scoring with 652 points. Barton played in 1986-87 then returned to the team after an LDS church mission to lay the 1990-93 seasons while Lee played from 1974 to 1977.
Jayson Cheesman has blocked 58 shots this season, which is third on SUU's single-season list and sixth on the career list. He needs two to tie Sean Allen's 60 in 1994-95 for second place and six to tie Matt Hodgson (2009-10) atop the single-season list. He needs two to move past Kerry Sherwood (1989-91), who is in fifth place on the career list with 59.
With seven blocks vs. Montana State the team set a school record with 139 rejections in a season, passing the 135 the 2010-11 squad blocked.
Cleaning The Glass:
- The Thunderbirds have won the battle of the boards 17 times this season but they have not out-rebounded their opponent in the last five games. SUU was out-rebounded in their first three games then won the battle of the boards in nine straight contests before Sacramento State had a 41-38 edge in the first meeting between the two teams and Weber State held a 46-41 advantage in the first meeting. SUU out-rebounded each subsequent opponent, a stretch of eight games, before Weber State pulled in 39 caroms to 33 for the 'Birds when the teams played in Ogden three weeks ago. Portland State had a 37-36 advantage, Eastern Washington also edged the 'Birds by one, 41-40, SUU and Northridge came out even 34-34, and Montana State had a 41-31 edge on the glass.
- SUU has reeled in 40 or more caroms 12 times this season. Last year's team had a total of four 40-rebound games.
- SUU pulled down a season-high 51 rebounds vs. San Diego Christian. The team's high mark vs. a Division I foe was 45, against Northern Colorado.
- As noted above, SUU set a school record with 139 blocks this season, four better than the previous high-water mark set in 2010-11.
- SUU averages 5.1 blocks per game, which ranks second in the Big Sky. The Thunderbirds have rejected 132 shots this season, including 12 against North Dakota, SUU's highest total since the team combined for 13 rejections against Panhandle State on Dec. 14, 2010 and the highest total in the Big Sky so far this season. The Thunderbirds were in double-digits against San Diego as well, when they blocked 10 shots.
- Jayson Cheesman has had two five-block and one four-block games this season, with both five-block efforts coming on the road. Cheesman didn't take much time to break into the SUU record books. In his first game as a Thunderbird, at Gonzaga, he blocked five shots, which tied the sixth-highest single-game blocks total in SUU history. He swatted five more at Weber State last week. The four-block effort came at home against San Diego Christian.
- Cal Hanks tied Cheesman in sixth place on that single-game list when he came off the bench to block five shots against North Dakota. Hanks has 25 blocks so far and needs eight to move into SUU's single-season top-10.
- SUU has five or more blocks in a game 16 times this season.
- SUU is now 9-0 all-time at home against Cal State Northridge after the BracketBuster win. In the team's brief BracketBuster life SUU went 1-1, with a loss at UC Riverside last year.
- Jackson Stevenett hit 4-of-4 free throws vs. Montana State. It was the eighth time this season he has been perfect from the line and the 15th time a Thunderbird has been perfect. He has hit 54-of-57 free throws over the last six games, including four perfect efforts (4-4 vs. MSU, 6-6 vs. Northridge, 7-7 at Idaho State and 9-9 at Portland State).
- The Thunderbirds were plagued early in the season by turnovers but have had more than 13 just once in the last 10 games, including a season-low nine at Weber State, until giving it up 14 times vs. Montana State.
- Jayson Cheesman has pulled down seven or more rebounds in seven of the last nine games, including nine, 10 and 11 in the three of the last four.
- Cheesman now has 175 rebounds this season and Jackson Stevenett has 157, marking the first time since the 2008-09 season that SUU has had two players with 150 or more rebounds. In '08-09 John Clifford pulled down 254 boards while Tyler Quinney finished with 155.
- A.J. Hess hit 7-of-14 shots, 5-of-10 from 3-point range, to finish with a career-high 24 points at Eastern Washington. He doubled his previous career scoring high, 12 at Idaho State, with the effort.
- SUU's 81-79 win at Idaho State was the team's first overtime game this season and thus Coach Nick Robinson's first win in overtime as a head coach. Both of the Thunderbird- Bengal games went down to the wire, with ISU winning 54-53 in Cedar City before SUU took the win in Pocatello.
- Chris Nsenki tied his career-high with 10 points at ISU, including a perfect 3-for-3 night from 3-point range.
- Northern Arizona was probably happy to see the last of Heuir. The senior guard scored 30 points in the first match-up between SUU and NAU - the highest total in the Big Sky until NAU's Gabe Rogers poured in 35 vs. North Dakota on Jan. 26 - and he poured in another 27 last Saturday. In his two games against the Lumberjacks, Heuir hit 15-of-30 shots, 7-of-12 3-pointers and hit 20-of-24 free throws. He also averaged four rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals and blocked a shot against NAU.
- Stevenett has posted double-figures in 21 straight games, including 10 games during the streak with 20 or more points. Heuir had scored in double figures in 13 straight games until finishing with just three at Eastern Washington. He had tallied 14 or more points in each of the 12 and four 20-point-plus efforts during the streak. Either Stevenett or Heuir has led the team in scoring in all but one game this year.
- Stevenett notched his third double-double of the season vs. NAU with 15 points and 10 rebounds.
- Stevenett hit the 1,000 career points mark with 19 at Montana, which gave him exactly 1,000. He is just the 11th player in SUU history to break the 1,000 point mark and just the third to cross that threshold since Richard Barton finished his career with 1,419 points in 1993 (third on SUU's all-time list). Jeff Monaco finished his career in 2001 with 1,568 points (second) while Davis Baker finished his in 2010 with 1,205 (sixth at the time, now seventh).
- Julian Scott, who missed five games with a foot injury, then played in the NAU, Sac State, Weber State and Idaho State games, was lost for the season with a knee injury suffered in practice January 18.
- The Thunderbirds had just four players foul out of the first nine non-conference games (including two at TCU) then had 13 disqualifications in the first eight Big Sky contests, including two at both Northern Arizona and Sac State and three against Weber State and at Montana. The 'Birds went without a disqualification for three games before Jordan Johnson was disqualified at ISU. Cal Hanks then fouled out at Weber State, Jaren Jeffery was disqualified at Portland State and Jackson Stevenett drew five fouls at Eastern Washington, making the total 17 in 16 conference games. Jeffery picked up five fouls against Northridge to make it five DQs in 10 non-conference games, but no one was disqualified against Montana State.
- SUU was the first team to win its first three Big Sky Conference games in its first season of play since Boise State started out 4-0 back in 1970-71.
- Stevenett has scored a career-high 29 points twice this season, at Gonzaga and again in the first game vs. Weber State. Stevenett's 11 field goals made against the Zags is tied as the second-highest total in the conference this season.
- Wade Collie has been dismissed from the squad for violation of team policies.

Funny that you bumped this because as I was making my smoothie today and my blender sounded like it was going to blow UP I was trying to figure out what to get next. I really just want something that will blend a decent smoothie without sounding like it's about to die (it's also loud enough to give a jet engine a run for its money).
Enjoy your new toy!!!

Tabby was never a breed. Tabby is a color pattern and can exist in many breeds and colors. The pattern has whirls or stripes and they have an M on their forehead. My Persian Lucy is a Red Tabby with white.

Tabby cats were never a recognized breed; they are American (or domestic) short haired cats.

LOL. Coloration is not breed, although a colorpoint cat probably has a Siamese ancestor lurking in the background. Tabbies are said to be Nature's default coloration. You can find tabbies in almost every breed, from Maine Coon to Oriental Shorthair. The vast majority of cats have no breed, unlike dogs. People seem to want to assign breeds to cats, heence using coloration. A cat doesn't need a breed to be special.

Tabby is neither a breed nor a color and never was. It is a pattern, either classic tabby or mackerel tabby. The classic tabby cat has a bull's eye pattern on his/her side. The mackerel tabby has stripes. Tigger looks to be a red and white mackerel tabby domestic shorthair cat. There are also patched tabbies which are combinations of tabby and tortiseshell markings. Tabby markings come in a variety of colors - brown, red, cream, cameo, silver....and are found in many purebred breeds as well as domestic shorthair cats.

I've been with my wife Ann for 17 years, and we both mourn Nora Ephron for a single line in When Harry Met Sally. It's when Marie (Carrie Fisher), horrified at the travails of their single friends, turns to husband Jess (Bruno Kirby) and says: "Promise me I'll never be out there again."
This came back to me on reading Neil Strauss's 2005 bestseller The Game, a supposedly foolproof guide to seduction, and the male archetype of The Gaggle. Squelch your way through its 500 sticky pages and you can pull any woman, apparently. Olly Murs gave a copy to One Direction's Harry Styles, triggering his blitzkrieg on the loins of the nation's females, from Caroline Flack to Caggie Dunlop. Well, yippee for him. Me, I hope I'm never out there again.
The method that Strauss learned at the groins of several self-proclaimed experts is a mixture of neuro-linguistic programming, psychological disorientation, and bullying. To seduce a woman in a bar or club, you need to bust into her social group, defuse any alpha males, lower her self-esteem by "negging" her (a comment on her appearance that is neither positive or negative) and basically con her into wanting you.
Some more extreme practitioners "project animalistic sexuality and escalate physical contact until the woman stops them". Or "commit assault", as it is known in British law. To illustrate how easy it is to bed even the hottest, richest girls, Strauss shows how these techniques worked to a greater or lesser degree on Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Courtney Love and a Playboy Playmate of the Year. By odd coincidence, I've met that PPOY, Dalene Kurtis, and though she seemed an utter airhead she is probably the most smart and psychologically resilient of that quartet.
Most of the PUA (Pick-up Artist) techniques are variations, or warped versions, of the devices most men use — flirting, wit, boasting, dressing nicely — to convince girls they are not unworthy. But the aim of The Game seems to be conquest and revenge, not intimacy or even sexual pleasure. Vocabulary is militarised and full of acronyms, while the "field names" chosen by the "players" are redolent of the nerdiness that still lies beneath: "Mystery", "Style", "Twotimer", "Matador of Love".
The Game isn't just a seduction manual but a Bildungsroman, detailing Strauss's journey from callow, awestruck admirer of the PUA's, to player, to survivor, after the whole scene is rotted from within by its very nihilism. Guess what saves him? Yep: the right woman. None of us want to be out there really.

Cathay Theatre
60 Jalan Dato Onn Jaffar,
No one has favorited this theater yet
This beautiful single-screen theater was built in late-1956 and opened on August 31, 1957, with the movie "King and I", an Asian-themed film.
In addition to the theater's front lobby, the Cathay has a nice side lobby. Seating capacity in the downstairs portion of theater is 798 seats, while above, the balcony seats 376 patrons. The theater also has a DTS sound system. The theater still uses two 35mm projectors for changeover of reels and has refrained from using platters for film projection, despite the fact that platter equipment is installed. Another unique aspect of this theater is its marquee, which is very different from that of most American-style theaters.
Today, the theater plays first run movies. While it formerly played only English language films until the 1990s, it currently shows films in Malay, Hindi, Tamil, and Chinese; representing the most commonly used languages in Malaysia.
Currently, a group is trying to find a sponsor to help buy the theater to prevent it from being potentially demolished. If anyone is interested in helping to preserve the Cathay, please email

She marries a Carolinian whom she does not love, and accompanies him to his plantation-home.
The excitable Carolinian has got some one to hear him abuse Cuba, and glorify Charleston.
She seated herself with a Carolinian on either side, and their clothes began to send up clouds of steam.
I would ask, being as little familiar with the low country settlements as any native-born Carolinian could be.
I hastened to the spot—and there I found my great Carolinian.
Ere our arrival, our brother Carolinian Royalists had shown themselves in some force.
At first he had considered it a slight matter, since the Carolinian's French wife had come so often to talk to Choo-qualee-qualoo.
One case is recalled of the spoiled body servant of a gallant Carolinian, one of General Wheeler's brigade commanders.
He openly expressed his disapproval, and even dictated a work against it—the Carolinian books.
While admiring the generalities and theories of the great Carolinian, the young Georgian was a more practical statesman.

Texas DPS seizes glitter, tampons, other 'suspicious' items before abortion debate
AUSTIN, Texas - Texas Capitol security officials say they have confiscated bottles suspected of being filled with urine and feces in the security line to get into the Senate gallery for Friday's debate on an abortion restrictions bill.
Texas Department of Public Safety troopers are searching bags of anyone trying to get into the public gallery. They are looking for items that could be thrown at the senators on the floor below.
DPS officials say 18 bottles suspected of containing feces and one bottle suspected of having urine were confiscated. Paint, glitter and confetti also were taken.
Other items being taken included feminine hygiene products such as tampons. Sen. Kirk Watson says he intervened to stop the confiscation of tampons and said he was assured by Senate security it would cease.

Where do you get this stuff turbolover?!? On what basis is your logic? There sure are alot of variables possible there...
4100 rpms is what I have to work with. I am building it backwards, granted I believe you all when you say I should change the rear end ratio and/or add overdrive and keep my 454. But thats not what Im going to do. I think it will be more fun to build a motor meant for 4100 rpms. I better hang onto this 454 in case I change my mind tho... This stuff is just fun for me, switching motors, playing around.. I needed an excuse to build this motor I been planning for years, this is as good as any. I wish I would have never sold my el camino tho.
Ford 300 straight 6 is a terrible engine, was a truck engine, and had a bad rod ratio. The 240 six was the same block, had a great rod ratio, and got decent fuel economy. I had a 1973 3/4 ton ford van with a 240 cid when I turned 16 years old, it was my first vehicle! I thought it was super cool. My dad and I went to KY from Florida one year, me following him in his new at the time ford areo star p.o.s. van. We gassed up at the same time and he was keeping track of the mileage. It turns out my big old van averaged about 20 mpg at 60-65 mph, the best he managed was 16-18 mpg with all that fancy efi, overdrive and new v6 engine! He had some people and coolers and crap in his, but I had stuff in mine too, and I promise I weighed more in my van than he in his! Then later on about 6 years ago, I got me a 1992 ford econoline with 300 cid with fuel injection. I worked on it trying to help mpg, and it ran great but never ever got better than 12mpg!! Maybe that old van was a fluke I dunno

Debora, whether human beings are instinctually good or evil in an elementary natural state is a question that has been boggling the minds of even the greatest philosophers. There is a spectrum of theories that support both good and evil within the human race, each with valid points that explains the range of our interests, being either for ourselves or for others. However, my personal stance is the sensible theory of Altruism. Past experiences and observations allow me to take the stance, and support the argument that humans are caring and genuinely good individuals and have the will and desire to help those around them.then there's the good ole 'anti-social personality disoder'
sociopath. The theory is they are born that way, there is no known cause, nor is there a cure
Cognitive behavioral therapy seems to help
Locke says that we are born good with a blank slate. Whatever we learn and how we learn it from society is what fills the slate. However Hobbes believes that we are born bad and because of this we need a ruler to control that attribute with fear of punishment. I believe that Hobbes is right in the sense that we are born sinful. Yet, I do not agree that we need a ruler to control our sin by fear. Rather, we do have a blank slate that society does affect, bringing the idea of good into our perspectives. We are born with a sinful nature because of our natural survival instincts. If left to our own, away from society, we would act upon nothing but the will to survive. Every decision would be based on the idea of how to better us, practicing an extreme form of selfishness. Yet, when brought into society we would start to understand the idea of others and performing selflessly. Society will begin to show us what is accepted as right and what is accepted as wrong. Once understanding what is considered good, I have faith in humanity to at least try to make appropriate decisions.
Using your survival instincts is neither wrong nor sinful. Rather, my point is that in a situation where we are taken away from society our one interest is to survive. Within that interest it is not whether right or wrong, but rather what it will help or hurt us. An example of this would be in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding. In Goldings novel the children have even already been addressed to the rights and wrongs of society, yet they still forget them when...the chaos surrounding Simon's death calms down, Golding focuses on the horror Piggy and Ralph feel about their involvement in the murder. The two boys attempt to justify their role in Simon's death with the ideas that they did not know that it was Simon until it was too late, they were not among the inner circle of boys beating him to death, and they operated on instinct rather than on malice. Still, the involvement of Piggy and Ralph makes clear that even these two, the paragons of rationality and maturity among the children on the island, are susceptible to the same forces that motivate Jack and his hunters. Golding obscures the once-clear dichotomy between the "good" Ralph and the "evil" Jack,demonstrating that the compulsion towards violence and destruction is present inside all individuals.
The reverse, a "good" Jack, is rarely in evidence. The implication of Ralph's and Piggy's brief but tragic participation in the brutal activities of Jack's tribe is that the natural state of humanity is neither good nor evil but mixed. Social order and rules, with conscience and reason helping out only on occasion, are what constrain and limit the "evil" impulses that exist inside us all.

Fun, colourful fabrics are one of the best parts of using Lunapads. Using something beautiful instead of something bleak and boring makes having your period more tolerable. Who doesn't get a kick out of choosing Lunapads to suit their mood…or outfit! Everyone has their favourite print. That's why we get so excited when we get new fabrics in at Lunapads.
It just so happens that 2 new fabrics have recently arrived at our factory. Before we can put them up on the website, we need your help in giving them catchy names. Suggest a name in the comments below; if your name suggestion is chosen, not only will the name live on in infamy on our website, you'll also win a Sampler Pack in the fabric that you've named! You can enter as many times as you like. Keep in mind that we like descriptive names, ones that include a colour…and we're always suckers for alliteration! The first fabric will be paired with black fleece, and the second with bubblegum pink. Be sure to tell your friends about the contest on Twitter and Facebook, too. A free Sampler pack is a great way for a cloth pad newbie to get off the fence and on their way to more eco-positive periods.
This contest is now closed.

No. 18, 12 November 2002
The Cunningham by-election 2002
Background The resignation on 16 August 2002 of Stephen Martin, Labor MP for Cunningham, caused a by-election held on 19 October. An MP since 1984,1 Martin's decision came less than nine months after the 2001 general election.
The candidates Thirteen candidates nominated. Party nominations included the ALP, Australian Democrats, Greens, One Nation and the Christian Democratic Party (Fred Nile Group). Among the independents was the President of the South Coast Labor Council, Peter Wilson. The Liberals decided not to nominate a candidate, though David Moules, an independent, acknowledged his membership of the party. In 10 of the 18 Commonwealth by-elections held since 1990, the government of the day has chosen to avoid the contest.
The result Michael Organ won the Greens' first House of Representatives seat despite a first preference vote of just 23 per cent. This was the first House seat won by a minor party since Jack Lang won Reid as a Lang Labor candidate in 1946. Organ gained 75.2 per cent of later preferences, which enabled him to defeat Labor's Sharon Bird, who had received 38.1 per cent of first preferences. This was the first time Labor had lost the seat, created in 1949, and was only the fourth time that an Opposition had lost a by-election, the last occurring in 1921.2 The Australian Democrat vote (2.3 %) almost disappeared.
Explaining the result Many factors have been pointed to in explaining the result, including the Labor leader's performance, the preselection of the Labor candidate, concerns over the issue of possible war with Iraq, and annoyance at Martin's failure to serve his full term.
Four other factors, however, appear to have been more significant.
Changes in Cunningham Although most commentary referred to Wollongong being Labor 'heartland',3 in fact there is a significant difference between the seats of Cunningham in the north of the city and Throsby in the south. Throsby takes in the BHP factory and has a socio-economic profile more typical of a safe Labor seat.
The difference between the two electorates has widened with the 1999 redistribution, when Cunningham was stretched north-east to take in such well-to-do areas as Stanwell Park, Otford and Helensburgh, areas said to include many incomers from Sydney. This was quite evident in the 2001 election, with Cunningham's Labor first preference vote of 44.2 per cent being over 10 per cent less than the vote in Throsby. Stephen Martin's 2001 vote was in fact 8.1 per cent lower than his 1998 vote before the redistribution, one of the largest falls for any sitting member across the nation.
With Labor's vote falling a further 6.1 per cent in the by-election, it seems that ongoing demographic change combined with the effects of 1999 redistribution had much to do with the 2002 result.
Wilson's candidature Wilson's presence on the ballot paper gravely hurt Bird's chances. An organiser with the NSW Teachers' Union as well as an office holder with the local Labor council, Wilson attracted the support of a number of local unions. His candidacy became associated with local community criticism of different aspects of Labor's recent history in the Illawarra:
⢠stories of internal corruption, including accusations of branch-stacking ⢠general unhappiness over the
treatment of the Illawarra by Labor's head office in Sydney
⢠resentment against head office intervention in the ALP Cunningham preselection which denied local party members a say in the choice of candidate
⢠a general belief that the Labor Party, and the State Labor Government, 'took Wollongong for granted'
⢠he claimed arrogance of the previous Labor-dominated city council.
Wilson summed up what he claimed was a widespread local feeling when he warned the ALP:
You are alienating your heartland and you had better do something about it because it is going to get worse.4
The Illawarra Mercury played on such resentment with 'Peoples Choice', a poll to find an attractive independent candidate.5
It is plausible to suggest that the great majority of Wilson's 7107 votes came from people who had supported the ALP in 2001. In fact, his and Bird's first preferences surpassed Martin's 2001 general election vote by over four per cent. Had Bird even been able

to equal Martin's first preferences, she would probably have won the seat.
The Liberal choice to abstain If the Liberals had contested the by-election they would probably have secured a vote at least as high as their 28 per cent in 2001. This would have put them well ahead of Organ, whose preferences would probably have pushed Bird over the line. At times a party can do a great deal of damage to opponents by avoiding a particular contest.
The Greening of Cunningham Environmental questions such as redevelopment, protection of the escarpment, and the degradation of the coastline have begun to have an impact on Wollongong politics. The Green vote in Cunningham in the 1996, 1998 and 2001 elections was among the highest in NSW.
The most visible issue has involved Sandon Point, located between Thirroul and Bulli, where a housing development has been strongly opposed by environmentalists. They have been supported by the local indigenous community, concerned
over the fate of an area said to be rich in indigenous artefacts. Anectodal evidence speaks of opposition by many of the incomers, concerned with maintaining both the environment and their house values.6
The Sandon Point issue gained added political flavour from the fact that many described the deal between developer and city council as an example of the corrupt state of local council politics, so long dominated by the ALP.7 It may have helped Labor lose the mayoral election in September 2002.
The strongest Green support has come in the north-eastern areas, including those added to Cunningham in the 1999 redistribution. In the 2002 mayoral election Michael Organ had already indicated the growth of Green support when he gained 13.8 per cent of the vote, winning 5 booths in the northernmost ward, with his highest vote being an impressive 37.2 per cent in Austinmer.
Senator Bob Brown claims that many Green votes have come from Liberal supporters.8 Some Green votes
probably did come from such people worried about the future of re-development in the Illawarra. In 2001 the combined Liberal-Green vote topped the ALP vote in 13 booths. In 2002 five of these booths were among the 12 in which Organ topped the poll.
Organ thus entered the Cunningham contest with advantages not always enjoyed by Green candidates:
⢠he was a well-known local
⢠Cunningham had a far greener tinge than many other electorates, including neighbouring Throsby, and
⢠the fortuitous holding of the mayoral election, just five weeks before, gave him an electoral profile rare for Green candidates.
In conclusion The unusual circumstances of this by-election mean that the Greens may struggle to hold Cunningham. However, demographic change makes Labor's future in the seat far from certain.

2012 CINCINNATI FOOTBALLPostgame QuotesCincinnati 31, No. 16/14 Louisville 34 (OT)Oct. 26, 2012 | Louisville, Ky. | PapaJohn's Cardinal Stadium
Cincinnati Head Coach Butch Jones(Opening statement)"Obviously a great college football game, I think two teams going at it. I'm very proud of our kids I thought they showed a lot of resiliency, especially on the road and come back and tie the score for overtime. They made one more play in overtime and that was the difference in the game"(How did weather affect the game?)"It was challenging at times, but obviously in third and down situations we have to convert. We practiced with a wet ball throughout the course of the week because we knew we had a chance of playing in the rain. It affects you a little bit, but as much as we practice with not as much as you would think"(On Munchie Legaux's playing)"I thought he made some big plays for us, everything's a learning process, but when you're in overtime you got to throw the ball away and we got to be able to kick a field goal and put our defense out on the football field. In overtime the number thing you cannot do is turn the football over."(On Ralph David Abernathy IV's play)"I think we were behind the sticks more that we would like, but I thought Ralph had a very strong performance. He brings a lot to the table for a football team"(On the offense)" I thought we did a much better with playing Temple, I thought we did a much better that way and as we move forward we need to continue to play at that tempo."(On changing the momentum of the game)"I thought one of the critical plays of the game was in the fourth quarter when we have the ball at the 50 and we had a big run and it's negated by a holding penalty. We had two catastrophic holding penalties and those are momentum changers, those are game changers and it really changes the field position game. It nullifies a 20 yard run and then you go back 10 yards from the spot and those end up being 30-35 yard penalties and we had two of those. For us offensively, we can't have those mistakes."(On the way his team played)"They are a resilient group of kids. That's a hurting locker room right now, as a coach; they laid it on the line and gave us everything they had. Dan Giordano had the flu all day, the resiliency of the group, now obviously we'll hurt and we'll bounce back. We don't have time to feel sorry for ourselves, we have a talented Syracuse football team coming in and it's going to take everything that we have but we love our kids and we think they showed true character."Linebacker Maalik Bomar(On how difficult is it to spend the whole game trying to track Teddy Bridgewater)"He's a great quarterback, and he has great percentages and at the end of the day we have to make plays. We're here for a reason, we have to prove ourselves, so that was on us. All we can do is work and get back at it next week."(On the postgame talk in the locker room)"We fought hard, a loss is a loss, and a win is a win, they ended up winning. We're hurt right now and we have some things to think about. All we can do is get back to on the field and perfect our craft."(On if this game decides the BIG EAST)"No, not at all. We knew they were going to come at us because they were undefeated. Our job was to come in here and redeem ourselves from last week."(On if he likes playing in this environment)"Yeah this is what we signed up for. I felt like our guys answered the call when we needed too. We just need to get this feeling off our backs."(On one or two younger guys that impressed him)"Cameron Beard. He played hard tonight when he came in for us. He won matchups. Trenier Orr was another guy that played well. We could use more guys like that. It's good to have him on defense."Quarterback Munchie Legaux(On the touchdown to Damon Julian that tied the game up)"It was a great play by Damon, I just recognized the coverage. The cornerback bit on the route so I knew he was going to be open."(On the overtime interception)"With a bigger guy like Travis Kelce I tried to throw the ball up so he can go up and make a play, but the cornerback did a great job on breaking and reacting on the ball, and he made a great play. That's one of the plays you wish you could have back, but you live or die with it."(On what his teammates said to him after the game)"They just told me to pick my head up, and that they have my back no matter what the outcome of the game is. I never got down, and they told me that we still have a lot more football to play."Louisville Head Coach Charlie Strong"The only thing I can say is when you talk about tenacity, when you talk about finish, you talk about resiliency - that's what you look at with this football team. When you get down 17-7 and you're down 24-14. And then we're backed up on the goal line and Teddy (Bridgewater) makes a throw out to (Damian) Copeland who makes an unbelievable catch. And then we go and throw a touchdown to DeVante (Parker) who also makes an unbelievable catch with one foot down. Then we get the ball and we're trapped and we can't throw the ball after DeVante and he makes everybody miss and he goes for another... that was a big time, a big time play right there."But then defensively, you like to see us with 1:57 to go in the game and they take the ball and there's two timeouts left, hoping we can get a stop. And if we can get the stop, then it'll make them use their timeouts, but we weren't able to get the stop and throw the ball up over our head and then get the game into overtime. And we come and Terell Floyd gets the interception, then we were able to run the ball, get the ball into field goal range and go punch it in and get the field goal - and get the win."It's amazing. That locker room is very happy right now. We didn't play very well the first half. We weren't in synch on offense. We made a lot of mistakes just in the rhythm. Defensively we were able to get two turnovers and kind of kept ourselves in the game on defense just because of the plays we were making. But we have to get better. That's good. You win a football game and you know you can still improve and this football team knows it - I just told them that. We're 8-0, but still we can go play so much better. We have yet to put together a 60 minute game. When is that going to happen? We need that to happen.(What did referee say on loose ball being ruled as touchback)"They said he never had possession of the ball. I said if we are running down the field after a punt, and it hits one of our players and they recover, then that is their ball. The referee said yes that is true. I said well he muffed it, but the referee said he never had control of it. I told the referee that he picked it up and tried to run with it but recovered it in the end zone. The referee said he didn't agree, and that the returner never had possession of the ball."(On what he told the official to warrant a penalty)"What did I tell him? That is why I got that 15 yarder (penalty). I apologize for that though, that's the thing, I am sorry I did not mean to overreact like that. I just got pissed."(On if he said anything to John Wallace or Will Stein before the game-winning field goal)"No, I did not say anything to either one because it is all about the execution and a lot of times you walk over there and say 'you have to make this,' and I did not want him (John Wallace) to tighten up. Just to go in and kick it like he has always kicked it. If he hits it then the game is over, if he does not hit it than we have to go to the other end and go play defense. Actually we were going to get the ball first down in the "Crunch Zone." I told them that when we won the toss we wanted to play defense first."(On Damian Copeland's 51-yard reception in the fourth quarter)"If you watch that play, Teddy (Bridgewater) felt pressure and Cope (Damian Copeland) runs and kind of slows down and then Teddy lets it go and he just takes off and makes an unbelievable catch. We were backed up and we really needed a play because we were down seven at the time and just trying to get some energy. If you remember, right before that, I think that is when we punted the ball and we dropped the ball and were not able to recover it there on the seven yard line. To watch Teddy make that throw; we just needed a play to ignite us and we scored on that drive, then we scored on the next drive, and then we get the ball in overtime and we score."(On his reaction when DeVante Parker shook the defender)"Just to see him with the ball in his hand. We always talk about yards after the catch and making the big run after the catch and he was able to do that. One thing you really saw then was how fast he is, because even though he cut across the field the guys (Cincinnati's defenders) still had angles and he was able to outrun them."Defensive Back Terell Floyd(Comment on the interception in the overtime)"The quarterback was locked on the receiver and I knew he was going to throw the ball. I just went under the receiver and got the pick."(On what was different in the second half defensively)"We made some adjustments to fill in the gaps. We have an excellent defensive coordinator that put us in the right sports to make the right plays."Wide Receiver Damian Copeland(What does this mean to you and the team)"This win shows how much our team has matured from last year. We knew this was going to be a big week and a big game, and we got it done."(Overtime, the ups and downs and the game winning drive)"We stayed poised. Our offense came together and executed, and our defense came to play for the win."Wide Receiver DeVante Parker(On general comments following the game)"It was a hard fought, physical game. My teammates and I just came out and executed tonight."(On the two touchdown catches)"On my second catch, I just came out, shook the defensive back and got in the open field and scored. The first catch was just a simple post and I just released and came out with the ball."Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater(Thoughts during overtime)"I was just relying on our defense to get a stop. Once the defense was able to stop them, we were able to punch it in."(On being 8-0)"It wasn't easy. We have overcome adversity and it's just a good feeling right now."(Where does this rank on your college victories) "I don't even know where it ranks right now. I'm still thinking about is victory."(On Cincinnati sideline being fired up)"We didn't pay attention to their sideline. We just paid attention to our game plan and our own sideline."

It does not work for me, anyone has any clue on what can I do, I am very close to launching my first wp theme …
Thanks for any reply.
No. Same Problem here. By the way which framework are you working? Custom or any existing? Thanks
OptionTree, but that does not matter.
get_file_contents instead of wp_remote_fopen would do !!

Tamarind of London OC
Raise your hand if you like Indian food? (raises both hands) I don't just like Indian food I LOVE Indian food. I certainly wasn't exposed to many Indian dishes growing up in Southern California. I think my mom had one dish in her rotation, Hurry Curry. It was a very Americanized version of curry that included more sour cream and condensed soup then curry but I still thought it was the best comfort food aside from mac n' cheese my mom made. Over the years I have developed a fondness for spices like cardamom, mint, cumin, turmeric, ginger and allspice and in my best attempt have come pretty close to recreating some authentic dishes but let's face it my range is limited. Instead of immersing myself in learning how to cook traditional Indian food I settled for Chicken Tikka at the neighborhood strip mall.
Until now. 🙂
Last Monday Tamarind of London opened its doors with its first US location in Newport Beach, CA. Their newest Indian restaurant is the second to open after the original Tamarind, a 12 year Michelin Star awarded restaurant located in you guessed it, London. As a food blogger guest I was invited to preview some of their dishes last weekend. We had the opportunity to sample everything from their freshly baked Naan (flat bread) to the tender Tandoori Lamb Chops with red chili. The restaurant is located in Crystal Cove Promenade, conveniently nestled between some of my favorite shopping stops including Williams Sonoma and Banana Republic. Tamarind occupies the space formerly home to Sage across from the local hot spot Javiers. Tamarind of London adopted and then beautifully adapted the existing space adding a touch of Indian shapes and colors to the existing western restaurant design.
Everything cooked in the exhibition style kitchen lends to the general feeling of openness and communal sense of family, it is a warm and inviting space. There are several private booths that run along the perimeter of the dining room in addition to the family style tables with front row views of the exhibition kitchen. You may choose to dine al fresco in the Garden Room just behind the retractable walls of the restaurant bar. No matter where you settle in for the evening make sure you try one of my two favorites from the cocktail list, the Pimm's O'Clock (I need that recipe) or the Ginger Sutra Martini for people who love the bite of ginger. For my wine drinking friends (you know who you are) you'll be happy to know they offer over 50 wines by the glass. The bar also serves a variety of tapas that include chili cheese toasts and taro cakes. If you are a huge bread addict like me you can order it by the basket full with a side of chutney (another recipe I want too). But don't eat too much bread, you will want to save room for Butter Chicken and over flowing bowls of aromatic Basmati rice.
Pimms O'Clock, English inspired Pimm's No. 1, strawberries, cucumber, oranges and fresh lemonade, the most refreshing sangria-like cocktail you'll ever have. Ginger Sutra Hangar Kaffir Lime Vodka, Jaggery (whole cane sugar), Fresh Ginger, Fresh Lime, straight up baby.
Visiting Executive Chef Alfred Prasad flew in from London for the opening seen here working one of Tamarind's three ceramic tandoor ovens.

Among the main courses are black peppered steak, which we hear a few lucky patrons really went nuts over the night before during a soft opening. The menu also integrates California's selection of seasonally fresh and sustainable foods from local farmers, ranchers and fisherman with Indian classics including classic chicken tikka masala with a tomato honey sauce and fenugreek and farm vegetable curry with root vegetables, coriander and cumin. A selection of tandoor grilled kebabs include halibut with a lime leaf marinade; chicken with paprika, yogurt and ginger; and lamb chops flavored with red chile and cardamom. A number of desserts including house-made ice creams and sorbets, tropical cheesecake, carrot halwa and a 7-spiced molten chocolate cake round out the menu.
Chef Gordon Ramsey often refers to Tamarind as his favorite Indian restaurant
Indian born Chef Shachi Mehra is in charge of the Newport Beach kitchen working closely with London-based Executive Chef Alfred Prasad. "Our philosophy is to make innovative Indian cuisine accessible to the mainstream U.S. diner," says Mehra, a veteran of two fine dining Indian icons, NY's Tabla and Palo Alto's Junnoon. "Indian cuisine is one of the most culturally diverse food types available. Serving as the hub of the world spice trade for over two millennia, India has influenced and been influenced by flavors, ingredients and cooking from around the globe." Chef Mehra combines Western and Indian cultures creating dishes that successfully marry tradition with modernity. She shares her recipe for Carrot Halwa a delicious sweet milk and carrot pudding (pictured above center).

- Thread the tofu, bell pepper, and onion onto wooden or stainless-steel skewers (soak wooden ones in your sink 10 minutes beforehand to prevent burning). Retain the bowl with the leftover marinade for basting.
- Lightly brush grill with oil, then set skewers over the fire. Grill until tofu and vegetables are lightly browned. As you grill, baste with leftover marinade. If desired, sprinkle some sesame seeds over each satay stick after basting.
- Serve with Spicy Peanut Sauce and Brown Jasmine Rice. ENJOY!
- Combine all ingredients in blender. Add water to get desired consistency. Add Sriracha for more heat if you like! Serve in a dipping bowl.
"We're delighted to announce the much-anticipated opening of Tamarind of London and
look forward to introducing a new take on Indian food to the American public," said Maneesh Rawat, recently appointed general manager, who has opened and managed notable Indian restaurants in Delhi, Washington DC and San Francisco. "We believe that a great meal goes beyond food, wine and service. It is an emotional experience that bonds guest and restaurant forever. At Tamarind of London, our goal is to create that extraordinary experience."
Rajesh Suri, CEO, Kathleen, myself and the Executive Chef in London, Alfred Prasad.
Chief Operator Rajesh Suri explained to our table how Newport Beach beat out the potential other locations including "foodie" capitals New York, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Let's just say it had something to do with our adventurous pallet and our love for fine dining experiences. I think we are quite lucky to have scored such a high caliber of Indian cuisine in our own backyard. If you are coming to Orange County soon plan on picking me up first, first round of Pimm's are on me.
Dinner items range from $16 to $29. Hours are Monday – Saturday 5 p.m. – 10:30 p.m. with Happy Hour from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. daily. Tamarind of London is located at 7862 East Coast Hwy, Newport Beach; 949-415-8865; www.tamarindoflondon.com.

Ginger Sutra. The. End.
Wow this sounds like an amazing restaurant! I could eat Garlic Naan all day long! I'll put it on the list for a trip to Southern California.
Oh god. I LOVE Indian Food. Too bad my husband won't eat it, so I'm left to eat it all by myself (more for me!). I'll definitely have to swing by there if I'm ever in the 'hood!
the food looks amazing (i can almost smell your photos)! and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. thanks for this awesome review! 😉
This is definitely on my list to visit. I'm so glad the OC is getting some noted restaurants. It's about time.
I love indian food. I've got to try this place. My husband and I were just talking about making naan ourselves. Those cocktails look delish!
I'm not a fan of Indian food at all. However, the photos almost make me want to try a couple of things!
I'd go for a cocktail, at the very least!
Beautiful photos, Lindsey!
