Box Score | Notes & Quotes | Video Highlights
Site: Ann Arbor, Mich. (Cliff Keen Arena)
Result: #18 Michigan 3, #6 Illinois 1 (28-26, 25-19, 19-25, 26-24)
Records: U-M (16-2, 5-1 Big Ten), Illinois (13-3, 5-1 Big Ten)
Next U-M Match: Wednesday, Oct. 13 -- vs. Michigan State (Cliff Keen Arena), 7 p.m. (TV: Big Ten Network)
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Led by senior setter Lexi Zimmerman's (Barrington, Ill./Barrington) triple-double (43 assists, 13 digs and 13 kills) and 19 kills from junior outside hitter Alex Hunt (Granger, Ind./South Bend St. Joseph), the No. 18-ranked University of Michigan volleyball team upset No. 6 Illinois on Saturday night (Oct. 9) at Cliff Keen Arena.
Redshirt sophomore right side Claire McElheny (Westfield, Ind./Brebeuf) joined Hunt and Zimmerman in double digits with 10 kills, while junior libero Sloane Donhoff (Louisville, Ky./Assumption) led five Wolverines in double-figure digs (22) to go with three service aces.
Michigan never trailed in a fourth-and-deciding set that featured four ties. Down 18-11, the Illini scored seven of the next nine points to climb back within two points, 20-18, before a McElheny kill put U-M back up by three. The Wolverines missed on their first match point when Hunt's serve sailed long, but the ensuing Illini service error and a termination by freshman outside hitter Molly Toon (Middleton, Wis./Middleton) gave U-M its 26-24 win.
The Illini led wire to wire in the third set, taking a 4-0 lead en route to a 25-19 win. Illinois was keyed by 3.0 total blocks and a .282 attack percentage compared to Michigan's .143 clip.
Tied at 8-8 in the second, an Illini attack error gave the Wolverines a lead they kept the rest of the set. Illinois climbed back in the set at 17-15, but Michigan scored eight of the next 12 points for a 25-19 triumph. Four kills from Hunt and three from Zimmerman paced the Wolverine attack as Michigan hit .273 compared to .065 for Illinois.
Michigan had three set points in the first set, taking a 24-21 lead, before the Illini ripped off three straight to tie the set. Illinois grabbed its own set point on a service ace for a 26-25 lead, but kills from Hunt and Zimmerman coupled with an Illini attack error resulted in a 28-26 Michigan win.
The Wolverines will remain at home for a midweek contest, hosting in-state rival Michigan State on Wednesday (Oct. 13). The 7 p.m. contest will air live on the Big Ten Network.
Lexi Zimmerman (43 assists, 13 digs, 13 kills) had the second triple-double of her career, with the other one coming against Tennessee (Sept. 4, 2009) when she had 42 assists, 17 digs and 11 kills.
Sloane Donhoff (nine assists) and Lexi Zimmerman (13 kills) set new career highs in both categories. Donhoff's assist to Zimmerman broke each mark.
Illinois is the second and highest-ranked team Michigan has defeated this season. U-M is 2-1 against ranked teams in 2010.
Alex Hunt had her fifth double-double (19 kills, 14 digs) of 2010.
It is the second time this season that Michigan has had five players reach double digits in digs, with Sloane Donhoff (22), Alex Hunt (14), Ally Sabol (14) Lexi Zimmerman (13) and Maggie Busch (12) all recording at least 10. The other time was against Toledo on Aug. 28.
It was Sloane Donhoff's ninth career match with at least 20 digs.
Michigan Head Coach Mark Rosen
What does beating the sixth-ranked team does for the team's confidence ... "I don't think it is the ranking or the number that we are wrapped up in. It is another win. We are trying to progress through the season. In the Big Ten, you have 20 matches, and you want to get as many wins as you can. You don't get any more points for beating a high-ranked team or a low-ranked team. I think they are a good team. That is what our team really feeds off of, playing a great opponent who is going to give you a really good challenge. I thought we really stepped up to that challenge today. That, to me and to our team, is more important than the number in front of their name. We have a number in front of our name, so everyone is gunning for us too. It is just a number."
On tonight's match ... "We were very aggressive from the beginning. I thought we jumped on them early and that really fed the tempo of the match. I think it made a big difference. I think we had to be able to stay in system and Lexi (Zimmerman) does a great job of distributing the job and staying really balanced. I thought our defense was outstanding, and it started with our block. I thought that was one of the best blocking matches we have had this season. Blocking is very much tied into the back-court defense. If we are touching balls and making them hit to certain spots, our defense is going to be a lot better."

A written will lets you decide what happens to your money and property after you die, while a living will lets you decide whether or not you wish to be placed on a medical life support system if you become disabled or incapacitated. Wills attorneys and living wills attorneys know all of the language that must be included in your will documents so that things happen the way you want. Because it's impossible for anyone to explain a will after his or her death, it is very important that the will meets all legal requirements. A wills attorney will ensure it does.

On Official Nomination as FBI Director, NY Times Looks at Pivotal Event in Career of James Comey '85
From NYTimes.com:
If it were not for a now famous scene in a hospital just blocks away from the White House, it is unlikely that James B. Comey would have been standing in the Rose Garden on Friday to be introduced as President Obama's nominee for the director of the F.B.I.
Mr. Comey was serving as acting attorney general in the Bush administration's Justice Department when he became the central figure in the most dramatic constitutional crisis of the nation's 12-year war on terrorism, and his role in the events surrounding that showdown on March 10, 2004, have shaped his public life and reputation.
His confrontation with White House officials that March night in the cramped confines of Attorney General John Ashcroft's room at George Washington University Hospital has since made him widely lionized as a guardian of the Constitution for resisting pressure to rubber-stamp a National Security Agency surveillance program that he and others at the Justice Department believed violated the law.
A senior Obama White House official said on Friday that Mr. Comey's part in the 2004 crisis was "an important factor in the president's decision making" when he selected him to succeed Robert S. Mueller III as director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

/// New Google Circles Would Have More Nuanced Sharing, But Google Says No Launch Imminent [NetworkEffect]
Google has reportedly built a social network called Google Circles intended to help users share photos, videos and status messages with only the most appropriate people. Marshall Kirkpatrick at ReadWriteWeb had the news this morning, anticipating a supposed demo at SXSW later today, and O'Reilly Media founder Tim O'Reilly followed up with a tweet , "I've seen google circles, and it looks awesome. Tip of the iceberg too." A representative for Google told NetworkEffect unequivocally that no such service is launching at SXSW today. She would not say whether something called Google Circles was in the works. However, there's no reason to think it's not in development. A bit of searching around shows that Google is already using the term "social circles" for a feature that shows its understanding of users' contact within its recently upgraded social search tool

The OneCare Collaborative is a group of hospitals, primary care physicians, nurses and other care professionals in the Tri-state region who are committed to improving the health of our community through high-quality, coordinated care.
Evansville Cancer Center/Vantage Oncology (ECC/VO), a Tri-State Radiation Oncology Center (TROC), and Deaconess Chancellor Center for Oncology were recently awarded a three-year term of accreditation in radiation oncology as the result of a recent review by the American College of Radiology (ACR). Radiation oncology (radiation therapy) is the careful use of high-energy radiation to treat cancer. A radiation oncologist may use radiation to cure cancer or to relieve a cancer patient's pain.
The ACR is the nation's oldest and most widely accepted radiation oncology accrediting body, with over 500 accredited sites, and 25 years of accreditation experience. The ACR seal of accreditation represents the highest level of quality and patient safety. It is awarded only to facilities meeting specific practice guidelines and technical standards developed by ACR after a peer-review evaluation by board-certified radiation oncologists and medical physicists who are experts in the field. Patient care and treatment, patient safety, personnel qualifications, adequacy of facility equipment, quality control procedures, and quality assurance programs are assessed. The findings are reported to the ACR Committee on Radiation Oncology Accreditation, which then provides the practice with a comprehensive report they can use for continuous practice improvement.
"ACR's accreditation of Evansville Cancer Center/Vantage Oncology and Deaconess Chancellor Center for Oncology is a credit to our dedicated team of nurses, radiation therapists, dosimetrists, physicists and radiation oncologists who are committed to providing outstanding radiation therapy treatments to our cancer patients," said Jon D. Frazier, M.D., radiation oncologist and medical director of ECC/VO. "We are extremely proud to have received this accreditation and will continue to hold ourselves to an extremely high standard so that our patients receive high quality cancer care."
The ACR is a national professional organization serving more than 36,000 diagnostic/interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, and medical physicists with programs focusing on the practice of medical imaging and radiation oncology and the delivery of comprehensive health care services.

Money Slow to Flow from Sandy Charities
Businesses and ordinary citizens have given more than $400 million to Sandy-related charities since the storm and money is still coming in. But many of the charities have spent less than half of what they've collected so far.
Of the five charities that reported collecting the most money to the New York Attorney General's Charities Bureau—the American Red Cross, the Robin Hood Foundation, the Salvation Army, and funds set up by New York City and New York State—just under 40 percent of what's been donated has actually been spent or committed so far.
The spending ratio is based mostly on data collected from 88 nonprofits that returned information requests. (In addition, New Jersey has its own relief fund, which is not included in New York's list. As of the end of December, it had received $28 million in pledges.)
Charity watchdog groups say the speed at which money should be distributed depends on the type of relief work an organization is engaged in. Ben Smilowitz, the executive director of the Disaster Accountability Project, was critical of the American Red Cross, which took in $249 million and spent $110 million as of the end of December. Smilowitz said the group should be spending money more quickly because the charity's primary role is to provide urgent relief.
"Ultimately, if there are still needs on the ground, which there are, it's fair to expect organizations with a lot of cash still sitting in the bank to step up to the plate," Smilowitz said, "hopefully with the same urgency as their Sandy fundraising appeals."
But the American Red Cross contends its presence on the ground has been strong. Communications Director Sam Kille said there are still 1,000 Red Cross workers in the field, and on an average day, the organization is serving 33,000 meals. Kille added that the charity's next step will be to spend $60 million on 9,000 families who are in need of rent and utility deposits as well as home repairs. However, the charity could not say how long it would take to spend the money.
Charities have been providing the essentials such as meals, blankets, and water. They've also been providing more specialized items such as modular homes and medical and mental health services.
While Red Cross has received the most money by far, the Robin Hood Foundation is the next largest charity in terms of Sandy fundraising. It brought in more than $50 million from a Madison Square Garden benefit concert on Dec. 12. More money is expected to come in as CD's, DVD's and iTune downloads are sold. That comes on top of another $17 million the foundation raised before the concert. Robin Hood says it spent roughly a third of all of its Sandy funds so far.
Smilowitz said Robin Hood was moving quickly considering it doesn't provide direct services but provides grants to non-profits instead, a process that can be time consuming.
Patty Smith, Robin Hood's marketing director, said the foundation has to vet organizations and make sure it is not funding groups that could be receiving grants from the government or elsewhere.
"If they submit a grant to us that is looking for help regarding a specific project we want to make sure that money couldn't be found in some other way," she said.
Smith said providing relief to people on the ground requires a patchwork of funding from federal, state, and local governments, with charities filling in the gaps.
Tim Parsons said his group, Rebuilding Together, must also be careful not to interfere with government or insurance companies. The non-profit helps repair homes.
"People need to apply to [the Federal Emergency Management Agency] and get insurance money", he said. "If we touch [the home] first we may be harming their ability to take care of themselves."
Rebuilding Together has raised $850,000 and spent $125,000 so far. The group says it expects to use its remaining donations by fixing up to 180 homes between now and June.
Another group that has spent a small portion of what it has collected is Occupy Sandy. Volunteers from the group were visible in neighborhoods across the city almost immediately after the storm. The group was praised for acting quickly, and in several instances, for reaching stranded and desperate people before government did.
According to information from the New York state attorney general's office, Occupy Sandy has raised just over $725,000 and has spent roughly $112,000. The group did not respond to a request for comment.

Description: The SIS-2 monitors an IR receiver, and when a certain remote code is detected, an output pin will toggle. Two outputs are available and any code on any remote can be taught to the SIS-2. This makes it simple to implement an infrared (IR) remote controllable switching solution for a wide variety of applications. When used with an inexpensive IR receiver module, the SIS-2 recognizes IR signals from 2 independent IR remote control sources, and provides 2 modes of switching for your application.
The IR sources can be from the same or multiple remotes. Works with over 99% of IR remotes, both universal and dedicated types. IR code is easily "taught" by user with a few simple button presses on the IR remote. IR code is stored in non-volatile, re-programmable memory. Applications include switching and on/off control of two sources, volume control, digital pots, and servos.
Want to build an ultimate universal remote? Check out this popsci article!
Here's a breakout/eval board for this chip: https://www.tindie.com/products/AtomSoft/sis-2-developement-board/
Not sure if useful but that popsci article is: http://www.popsci.com/diy/article/2008-10/make-master-remote
"popsci article!" link is dead
Hello there, can any one please tell me how to program OUT 2 at pin#2 ??? i successfully programmed out1(pin#3) to some button , but can't program out2(pin#2) to another button…. thanks in advance
Verify that pin 4 is connected to Vdd. This should fix your problem.
Used one of these about two years ago to modify an old art deco lamp to remote control for the wife. It's been working great and so I decided it was time to upgrade the lighting in our living room as well and built a version of indirect flood lighting off the vaulted ceiling that works like a 3 way lamp - turns on floods additive (1,2,4 at a time, OFF code at anytime turns all out). Used the expensive LED PAR38 Warm White lamps (only 100w w/all on). Couldn't be more pleased with the result. This chip is awesome!
Do you guys have plans to carry the SIS-7C?
I used this with the SEN-08554 IR receiver and with a Windows Media Center compatible remote. The combination works well so far in my tests. I have set the SIS-2 to discrete button mode so that I can use it to toggle power to my media center PC. I will use an Arduino board between them to handle the logic of commanding the power switch on the computer and to flash a LED to tell me the status of everything.
The IR Receiver is optimized 38kHz and the WMC remotes are running at 36 kHz but this does not seem to be a problem so far.
What I have working so far is that one remote control button will turn on the output regardless of how many times I press it. The other button will turn off the output regardless of how many times I press it.
I hope this little bit of information may help others…
I imagine I could use this for "dirty" remotes that don't operate at 38Khz and that have their own "codes"; like the remotes for cheap RC toys, am I right? I would want to use this for the Lego Power Functions.
This is an infrared receiver and will not function for any sort of radio-controlled implementation.
Unless, of course, these RC toys are using infrared (which would make them very picky and hard to use :P).
Yeah, sorry. I didn't explain that the PF remote control stuff is IR. There is more info on the PF code here here. Thanks
Many of the new cheap indoor R/C Helicopters use IR to control… In fact all of the 4 I have owned (different cheap asian imports) used IR.
They're not at all picky or hard to use in their intended environment; indoor rooms at less than 40 feet away.
Based on 2 ratings:
Required additional purchase when building JAMECO`s universal remote kit also the relays must be purchased separately, but I had some. went together easily worked first try fabbed boards with my circuitry (similar to the SIMERTEC evaluation module) Fun!
No Problems, work exactly like the description, extreme low power consumption, easy programming. Fast delivery, but very high custom taxes for import in switzerland, not your fault!

The centre opened in 2000 and has been located at St Barnabas Church Hall on The Fairway since it was first established. Many of the students come from the immediate area, and the centre is part of the local community.
The study centre has a relaxed and friendly environment where all children can learn and develop. From their first visit, children are helped to be enthusiastic and happy in their learning.
Kumon caters for students of all ages and abilities. The youngest student at the Northolt Study Centre is currently three years old, and the oldest is 16. Some students have been with the centre for several years. The centre has an area specifically for younger students with a higher staffing ratio, which enables staff to focus on their needs. The unique Kumon Maths and English Programmes pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, advanced study.
Unlike the process of a traditional tuition provider, Kumon encourages students to take their learning into their own hands. The role of the Kumon Instructor is to provide guidance, support and encouragement, allowing the student to develop their own independent learning strategies.
The centre has enthusiastic and supportive assistants, some of whom have worked at the centre for many years. Some of them are or have been Kumon parents themselves.
The centre benefits from unrestricted parking in the streets around the church hall, so parents are able to park their car within a reasonable walking distance even at the busiest times.

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker requested the Small Business Administration (SBA) declare Douglas County a disaster area due to damages incurred by June flooding.
"This declaration would allow individuals affected by the flooding to apply for low-interest loans," Governor Walker said. "This option would help in the recovery by allowing people to begin much-needed renovations."
On June 19-20, a severe thunderstorm dropped eight to ten inches of rain over the county, resulting in flash flooding causing significant damage to homes and businesses in Douglas County. The Douglas County Emergency Management, Wisconsin Emergency Management, and a representative from the Small Business Administration completed initial damage assessments and report more than twenty-five residences and businesses sustained significant damage and uninsured losses in excess of forty percent.
Damages to residences and businesses did not meet requirements for a major disaster declaration; therefore, Governor Walker is seeking assistance from the Small Business Administration.

A former Calais man convicted of sex crimes against two teenagers is going to prison for five years.
28-year-old Seth Larkin was also ordered Tuesday to serve four years probation.
He was convicted in January of gross sexual assault and unlawful sexual contact.
He also pleaded guilty Tuesday to probation violations for writing letters while in jail to a witness in the case.
Last May, Larkin forced himself on an 18-year-old girl and a 16-year-old girl.
They were visiting Larkin's former girlfriend and spending the night at the apartment he shared with her.
Prosecutors asked for a 20-year-sentence based on Larkin's violent criminal history.

American Printing — Proof Is in the Match
By Erik Cagle
Senior Editor
When it comes to auditioning ink, Shawn Welch is no Simon Cowell. Welch, vice president of operations for Madison, WI-based American Printing, doesn't have the same itchy trigger finger displayed by the now-infamous "American Idol" judge. In fact, Welch loves to take a long, hard look at the results on-press, anywhere from two to six weeks.
It behooved Welch to be methodical in choosing his primary ink supplier. Aside from some UV printing, the ink that emerged victorious from Welch's screening would pretty much cover all of American Printing's big press printing jobs.
American Printing is a sheetfed-only printer with 75 employees and annual sales in the $12 million range. It serves the southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois markets with annual reports, art prints, point-of-purchase materials and various products for the manufacturing sector. The company produces a great deal of agency-related work.
"It took months of testing (to make a determination)," he says. "We wanted to give everyone an equal shot, so we ran each ink a solid month, anywhere up to five weeks. Sometimes we'd go back to something we'd already tried and get a second opinion on it. But over a period of several weeks, we got the opportunity to run it on all types of jobs."
When all the inks had dried, Welch found a perfect match with Van Son Holland Ink and its VS5 line, which was rolled out earlier this year by the Islandia, NY-based manufacturer. The VS5 line was chosen from a field of four manufacturers.
Not a Perfect Start
American Printing has been using the VS5 formula for roughly 10 months, and Welch notes there haven't been any performance issues. That wasn't always the case.
"We were having some issues before, but the VS5 allowed us to print sharper, match proofs more consistently, and gave us less scuffing and drying problems in the finishing area," Welch notes. "Our percentage of times that we're having an exact match to proof is far greater because of the sharper printing and reduced dot gain.

A hoarding put up in the southern city of Chennai by well known photographer Sharad Haksar has Coca Cola officials seeing red.
The photo depicts a set of plastic pots next to a dry handpump – an allusion to the chronic water shortage in the city. The scene is set against a red wall bearing the painted logo of "Coca
Cola". News website rediff.com reports:
On July 11, 2005, the law firm Daniel & Gladys, who
represent Coca-Cola's Indian subsidiary, sent a letter to Haksar
threatening him with legal action if the billboard was not replaced
'unconditionally and immediately'.
The letter said Coca-Cola
would seek Rs 2 million for 'incalculable damage to the goodwill and
reputation' of the brand if Haksar did not comply with the
Incidenatally, Coke is a client of Haksar and

with the fact that it has been accused of contaminating ground water in the
neighbouring state of Kerala (an anti-Coke agitation has been going on there for
some time now).
However, few consumers connected the dry water pump
with the groundwater issue. Many thought it was merely one of those 'special
extra creative ads' which are often made with advertising awards shows in
Says one such consumer commenting on the popular
Chennai blog kiruba.com: "I've passed this hoarding a million times on
Nungambakkam High Road and have been under the impression all this while that it
was a Coke ad that used one of Sharad Haskar's photographs!!!"
Incidentally, the ad is part of a 'social
awareness juxtaposed against multinational advertising' series. The previous
hoarding depicted a kid pee-ing on a wall,
which bore the legend "Just do it" .
The question is, when a brand and it's slogan
becomes part of the popular culture, how far can it – or should it – be
'protected'. Isn't the use or even the subversion of these symbols by
artists more a tribute to how much a part of life these brands have

Alison Cooper sold her own yacht while in South Africa to join Barry Garnett on his yacht Tiana on a voyage which was to take them into the Roaring Forties to pick up the prevailing winds to carry them across the Indian ocean. They were due to arrive in Fremantle around the 1st May, meaning that they are now 120 days overdue.
Search and rescue authorities in both countries are daily attempting to locate the yacht without success.
'Unfortunately, our enquiries with next of kin for both parties onboard and port checks in the region have produced no information regarding the yacht or her crew,' said Craig Longmuir, Senior Search & Rescue Officer (Maritime) RCC Australia. 'We continue our broadcast to shipping in the area to alert any transiting vessels. 'I can confirm that Ile de Amsterdam, Ile de Saint Paul, Kerguelen and Crozet Islands have all been checked but there have been no reports of the Tiana,' he told the Zululand Yacht Club(ZYC) on Tuesday night.
ZYC Commodore, Steve Martin expressed intense concern on behalf of members and friends of the popular couple, who spent the past three years in Richards Bay. 'Rather than travel the traditional shipping route via Madagascar, to avoid piracy they chose to head due south close to the 'Roaring Forties' (latitude 40 degrees) before making eastwards for Australia. 'This means they are not in shipping lanes and are also in very cold conditions which are physically demanding.
'Their food and water situation is a worry and with each passing day, hope diminishes, but there are positives.
'Barry is a highly experienced trans-ocean sailor and a sailing instructor who would also have the ability to navigate using a sextant in the event of failure of electronic equipment.
'Also, the yacht's EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon) has not activated, which would happen in the event of a disaster.'
Martin, who spoke with Alison's mother in the UK this week, was unable to say at what stage the couple would officially be declared 'lost at sea', or who would make such a death announcement.
The family due to receive the yachties in Australia, Mary and Gordon Hemsley are also distraught at the lack of communication. They told South Africa's Zululand Observer they were in constant touch with the authorities and were praying for a miracle.
Anyone with information about the missing sailors should contact their local coastguard, or Sail-World at firstname.lastname@example.com

Laptop Cake And Briefcase Cake
My very first 3D cake! So much fun!! Everything except the computer screen is edible. The screen is a foam core board covered in fondant with freehanded logo to match the company's actual logo design. This cake was to celebrate the launch of the new company website at a big "Launch Party" . The coffee mug and mouse are all cake too. I think the mug is probably my favorite of all. :-)

Fed Announces No Change In Interest Rates, Quantitative Easing
(New York, NY) -- It's steady as she goes for the Federal Reserve.
Policy makers for the Fed are keeping interest rates at historic lows. They're also keeping a bond buying program known as quantitative easing at current levels.
The Fed says it has decided to await more evidence that indicates that tapering off the bond buying program won't cause more harm than good. It also added that it expects no change in interest rates as long as the unemployment rate is above 6.5 percent.

Travis Browne out for 2-4 months following injury
13 Attachment(s)
I honestly think this was Big Foot's fight irregardless of the injury.
Well this is good news to me. I though he tore his ACL or something like that. No surgery is always a good thing. Hope he comes back healthy. I like T. Browne.
I haven't rewatched this fight yet. Did anyone catch if this happened just from a bad step or a missed punch, or did this happen when he was being an idiot throwing silly kicks 10 feet away from Bigfoot.
I still believe in Travis Browne. People seem to think this loss proves he is a can. But he was obviously hampered by the injury and aside from the Kongo fight he has looked very good against decent opposition.
I still think he could crack the top 5 in the next 2 years.
Sent from my Desire HD using VerticalSports.Com App
Browne is a good fighter as long as he never goes into another fight trying to dance around like D. Cruz and drop his hands like Anderson Silva. I was sitting at home going WTF:confused03:
I dont believe thats when he tore it. When Bigfoot went to clinch him, Browne threw a knee of of it. After the clinch eventually broke (following knees to that leg by Bigfoot), Browne could barley walk. If his leg had already been fully injured before that, there is no chance an a guy could throw a knee of that leg before his adrenaline was pumping. I think either the knee or Bigfoot's clinch strikes did the damage.

Analysis of the toxicity of gold nano particles on the immune system: effect on dendritic cell functions

The effect of manufactured gold nanoparticles (NPs) on the immune system was analysed through their ability to perturb the functions of dendritic cells (DCs), a major actor of both innate and acquired immune responses. For this purpose, DCs were produced in culture from mouse bone marrow progenitors. The analysis of the viability of the cells after their incubation in the presence of gold NPs shows that these NPs are not cytotoxics even at high concentration. Furthermore, the phenotype of the DC is unchanged after the addition of NPs, indicating that there is no activation of the DC. However, the analysis of the cells at the intracellular level reveals important amounts of gold NPs amassing in endocytic compartments. Furthermore, the secretion of cytokines is significantly modified after such internalisation indicating a potential perturbation of the immune response.

Really, I LOVE the little curve in the baby's back and how it is so nestled into the mama.Baby heads are always bigger so it doesn't look hydrocephalic. The only thing that I would change would be where the baby has it's mouth. It looks as if it is nursing but the position is just a bit higher then the place on the breast that it would be latching onto. Other than that I love it! Take care , Sincerely Heidi Scarfone

As major auto shows go, the 2012 New York Auto Show was a bit of a write off for Audi. There were no world or even domestic debuts for the brand. Maybe it was timing or maybe it was simply importance of this event for the brand but the lack of new models stood in stark difference to major shows like Frankfurt, Paris, Geneva or Detroit where Audi table scraps are sometimes more than other
Fourtitude will be covering the media days at the New York Auto Show this week from Wed-Thurs, AND we've got 14 passes to give away to our readers courtesy of Audi.
Public days for the New York Auto Show (http://www.autoshowny.com) run April 6-15 and these passes will get you in during that
Just as the Audi A7 has begun to make its initial appearance at dealerships around the United States, Audi of America used the occasion of the New York Auto Show to present the A7 formally at the IAC Building in Manhattan. The presentation itself included Audi of America President Johan de Nysschen, Audi CMO Scott Keogh, Product Planning
Remember ice-encased Audi A3 making like Han Solo Empire Strikes Back Edition while its owner watched the NY Jets lose the playoffs? Seems the story of Peter Helfer, or rather his unfortunate Audi, made the rounds of the news cycle world wide back in January.... from the NBC nightly news to every car blog this side of Siberia.
At the time Manhattan native Peter Helfer stayed
Cars and NYC just don't get along. Really. The relationship between automobiles and the island of Manhattan is toxic. If you're lucky you get pock marked bumpers, enough parking tickets to wallpaper your hole of an apartment, your iPod knicked by the parking garage attendant and a monthly parking garage fee that'd cover the lease on a new A8. That's if you're lucky.

Preventing loss of siphon - canister
Going to clean out my canister again today to try and improve flow once again. Every time I clean it, I am losing siphon despite having the Eheim disconnect system on my 2028 canister. I fill the canister up as much as possible without overflowing, then secure the lid. Then I plug in the intake/output assembly. Problem is, the air in the head of the unit displaces the water in my CO2 reactor and my CO2 reactor turns into a giant air bubble. I have to crack open the top of the reactor to let as much air as possible out and then I have to hit the prime button a few hundred times it feels like to try and work out the remaining bubble before I can get it to prime.
Is there something I can do to maintain the siphon during this re-connection?
I have the same issue, if you can fill all lines with water plus the can. The reactor is the problem.
try getting your canister farther down..lower altitude....more distance...should be simple to explain lol.
i had trouble with suction, some one recommended i do that so i took my canister off the inside of the stand and put it on the floor. problem solved.
hmm..shouldn't be a problem getting the siphon back again...
don't fill the canister all the way..fiill it half way and then prime it..water should glush and fill it up...then plus in the outlet
Canister is on the floor as it is. The base of the reactor is 2 inches or so above the canister.
If I fill it up half way, I will simply have an impossibly large air bubble to fight. The water in the reactor will drain into the canister, but no more, after re-attaching the disconnect for the hoses. Unless I am missing something there. Priming results in no "gush" of water. I had to prime the unit so many times last time my hand was tingling for 3 hours afterwards and I had a blister develop.
I can do so when I get home. I have included a drawing in the mean time.
I have a 2026,AM 1000, hydor on the output, the only way I get it to prime without pushing the primer button a thousand times is to fill everything with water, all lines and reactor, starts up easily after that.
Also, are you happy with the flow on your 2026? The flow on my 2028 seems terrible now.
Update -- I filled up the canister, then before putting on the hoses I topped it off from the outside. Connected hoses, no loss of siphon. My aquarium life just became about 100% better, rofl.
I think your problem lies in putting any water at all in the cannister. Any water in the can prevents the priming pump from operating. With the can empty the primer pump can start water flow from the intake tube, filling the can as it pushes the air out the exhaust tube. Any water at all in the can sets up a "vapor lock" in the circuit. I know my Fluval operates this way, and reading the owners manual on your Eheim (online), it seems to be the same........no water in the can at all at initial setup/startup nor on any subsequent cleaning re-starts. Try that next time......let the priming pump do it's work: prime the can.
If your having an issue with air like that just put the intake on leave the output off slowly open the outake till its full then you have a 100% filled canister and shouldnt have any issues, filling the hose is imo a dumb pita way vs that but thats me.
That's exactly what I do! Glad it worked for ya, you don't want to use the primer button unless you really have to, there is a known problem with the proII primer gasket, once it goes you gotta take the whole head apart to fix and it don't look like fun:)

One brilliant young hacker. One experimental government aircraft. One chance to keep it all from going up in flames.
Still recovering from her troubled past, Farris is no stranger to change. But when the military transfers her father across the country to an experimental aircraft squadron, settling in to a new life is the least of her problems. As a series of apparent computer glitches threaten the security of the fleet and the blame falls on her father, she decides to put her computer skills to use, digging up the truth. Soon she's drawn into the perilous world of a hacker who is determined to ground the fleet - at any cost.
When all signs lead to someone close to her as the mastermind, Farris will have to burn more than bridges to get to the truth. She will have to risk her fragile new life to uncover the identity of the cybercriminal before they can escalate from harmless tampering...to all out murder.

"touches some really cool topics, good book!"
I really liked this book although it was a bit of a build up to then just end.... your waiting waiting waiting and then suddenly oh! is that it. its a good story though.
I loved the interaction between the 2 main boy and girl charecters.
I like the ending. I like how it doesnt work out who you think.
"4 Platypires"
I already read both this book and the sequel when I was offered a chance to review the audio version in exchange for an honest review.
Already knowing what was going to happen well in advance, it made this much that much more enjoyable. I caught a few things I didn't my first go round... so that's a thing.
One thing that really amused me about Moira Todd is how much she reminded me of Velma from Scooby Doo. I have no idea if that was intentional, but it fits Farris so much – her being a computer genius and whatnot.
I think she really brought out the story in a positive light. There were parts of the ebook that annoyed me a bit when I read them, but it felt more acceptable while I listened to the audio version.
I do hope Moira Todd is going to narrate the second book, In Too Deep, as well.
"Loved it"
This is one of the most entertaining mysteries I've read this year. I was guessing and fully engaged from 1st click.
Very much at the Top
The only other book I've read about Hackers is Meredith Wilds Hacker series even though it is a completely different genre of book so I'm going to say I would compare it to them. Ones young adult and the other adult
She brings Farris alive she lets you see everything happening in your minds eye with her reading.
Yes I thought it was fabulous it made me gasp at one point in the book
I got this book from Sherry for a honest review. This is a great book. It's got mystery and intrigue also military secrets. I loved how Farris would do anything to help her dad. the best thing though was no cliffhanger this part of the book ended well now in need book 2 to read more of Farris' story
"Great young adult story"
This was the perfect mix of mystery, romance, and humor. The story is told from the point of view of Ferris, a smart, quick witted high schooler who just happens to be a hacker genius. It tackles themes of bullying, mental illness, and sexual assault in an authentic way. But the romance and humor doesn't disappoint either. Would recommend for teens.

Day 16: Meatless Monday Quinoa Pasta
Today I took out my new pasta roller that my Dad bought me for Christmas, and decided to finally break it in!
I used 2 cups of quinoa I had milled in my vitamix. Digging out the centre I made a little volcano, where I added two eggs, some olive oil, salt and lukewarm water in a little bowl ready to mix in…
After mixing in all the ingredients I made a couple of balls then wrapped them in plastic wrap. I let them set while I took my son to hockey practice.
Then came the tricky part…
I flattened out a dough ball with my hand, and tried to pass it through the machine on the first setting, but all I got was a crumbly mess… After a quick google search I found I needed to spray the dough with some lukewarm water to moisten it. Seeing as though I didn't have a spray bottle handy I just filled the little bowl I had used for the wet ingredients with the water, and dipped my finger tips in and spread. It worked to moisten the dough, and all was good.
It took several tries to get a system that would work with the dough to make it sticky, but not too sticky, and not too crumbly. Each piece of dough went though the machine a couple of times on 1 to get it smooth, each time folding it onto itself and feeding it back in. I added them to each other to make a bigger piece, and continued to feed, and fold the dough till I could move up to 2, then 4, where I stopped. Do NOT forget the folding feeding, or folding and re-rolling step if even if using a rolling pin. As when making pasta as this is the step that gives it it's stretchy consistency, and makes it a nice noodle verse an egg noodle.
After I got it to the desired sized I moved on to another piece, and so on… till I had several quinoa pasta sheets…
By this point I had the pot of water boiling, and I was ready to cut it into thin slices… on my first batch, not thinking I could get it though the fettucini setting as it was still too crumbly I had cut it with a pizza cutter. After figuring out a system to get nicer sheets, I braved the attachment. Which I am glad I did, as it turned out great!
Don't mind all the crumbles at the bottom… I'm a newbie, and not someone's awesome Italian Nona 😉
Here is my beautiful nest of noodles
After boiling, I topped it off with some of the yummy Dave's Gourmet Butternut Squash sauce I picked up the last time I was at Costco…
…and put a couple chopped up roasted brussel sprouts on the side.
It was delicious, filling, and full of vitamins and protein! …but not full of meat!
The recipe I used for the pasta was
Quinoa Pasta Recipe
Mix dry ingredients then add eggs and olive oil to the mixture, adding water as needed. Dough should be sticky, but not leaving residue on surfaces.
- 2c quinoa flour
- 1tsp of ground sea salt
- 2 tsp of olive oil
- 4+ Tblsp of Lukewarm water
- 2 eggs (supposed to be beaten, but it worked without it)
- 2 tsp of either xanthan or guar gum (I used Guar Gum)
Mix dry ingredients then add eggs and olive oil to the mixture, adding water as needed. Dough should be sticky, but not leaving residue on surfaces.
Water amounts will vary depending on how fine your quinoa flour is, and desired consistency. This was for 6 servings… or 4 if people in your family eat bigger servings. It is easily divided in half! Enjoy!
The fact my kids had seconds… made me VERY happy! It's the little things, that make one happy… oh, well and my great new pasta rolling machine! Thanks again Dad, and Doris! <3 You!!
Have you ever made your own pasta? Any good pasta recipes you would like to share?? Please share recipes or links in the comments below
Day 15: A day of rest and Pax
Today we made pancakes for all the hooligans at our house, and allowed them to play and mess up our house, till one of their parents took them ALL swimming!
It was SOOOoooooo QUIET! It was nice!
While we enjoyed our kid-free time, we continued to work on the Pax wardrobe going in our dining/entry area…
Photos of completed project will follow, once it is done
What made me happy? The fact that we had left over butter chicken, basmati rice, and naan bread that I did NOT have to cook, and just sitting watching a movie with the family after supper, while Stinky quickly faded!
Day 14: A Day of Hockey…
Saturday was spent at the arena, enjoying moments like these
He did really well this weekend, and was 3 minutes from having a shut out in the last game! Yes I probably jinxed him! 😉
In between great novice hockey moments I was given the privilege to cook up some burgers and help with the fryer… I know you all are jealous! lol
I partook in some sweets and french fries, and had a great bowl of home made clam chowder!
I also ended up with two extra kiddos for a sleepover tonight as well…
Day 13
Wow… today I got my hair DID…
Sorry no photos 😛
For breakfast I had some non-photographed peanut butter on toast and a sip of coffee…
Today we had to run to Edmonton, and do a few things, and pick up a new printer, and some doors for the reno…
Supper was a few snacks in the car. I also had a red wine with friends when we picked up the kids. Not the greatest food day, I know!
What made me happy today… Just spending the day with Picky Hubby, as much as it was quick running around, it was ALMOST like a REAL date! Plus the wine with friends!
Day 12: Weekly Weigh In #1 of 2012
Well, it is time for another weekly Weigh-in…
It has only been 3 months since I last weighed in.. Eek!
Well I am up 2 lbs… weighing in at 193.5lbs
I have to say for 3 months of not paying attention, and without a kitchen, throw the Christmas holiday's in there, that is pretty good! In comparison to this time last year I was 199 so technically I am down! This at least means I am on a downward trend in a year rather than up! Right?! Maybe not as I saw low 170s on the scale last year… SIGH! Shh… we wont talk about that!
Whichever way you put it, it is not healthy and I am doing something about it.
Anywhoo… for Breakfast this morning I had some oatmeal
- 1/3 c quick oats (3-5 min variety)
- 2 drops Vanilla Stevia (Now! Brand)
- 1 scoop chia seeds
- 1/2 t Coco Loco coconut butter
- 1 t Sunflower butter
It was nice and yummy with a Good Earth Sweet and Spicy decaf tea
I forgot how much I love that stuff! If you want to read my review of the tea, click here. I order it from www.iherb.com It's a great site where they even put each item's expiry date in the description! Click on the link on the side if you want to check it out!
Lunch was a lean cuisine panini thing…not the greatest, but when it is 3:30 and you still haven't at lunch sometimes you aren't too picky, even if your name is Picky Nikki!
Supper was quick… Throw most of it on a pan and bake! My favourite type of meal when I do not feel like cooking!!
Alexia Sweet Potato Fries, Roasted Brussel Sprouts misted with olive oil with some Vegetable seasoning and sea salt on them…and a Bistro stuffed chicken breast from M&M Meats. I had the Spinach Ricotta, which I think gave me an oral allergic reaction tonight
I know the Sweet Potato and Brussels are okay, so that just leaves the chicken to be the culprit. I guess those are out of my personal menu now! I am not sure what part did it, whether it is the seasonings on it, or the preservatives that may be added? All I know is when I have to take a benedryl less that 5 minutes after a meal it's not a repeater! Although, I have had those before?? Oh well… it could be worse!
For Exercise: I did a quick abs, and burpee circuit, which didn't feel that great as I am still sore today. As well I had my daily Just Dance 3 session with my kids! I love beating them, as sad as that sounds! I guess it's the competitive personality shining through! I missed bootcamp this afternoon due to a meeting, and the instructor offered me to make it up tonight at another session in a local town, I wish I was able to swing going tonight, but it just wouldn't work before supper, and the after supper one was out after I took benedryl. Maybe I can sneak in another session, another day if I ask nice? or BEG! 😉
Well I am off to bed… I just want to give a BIG SHOUT OUT TO LOUISE! It's her Birthday tomorrow, or by the time she reads this post… today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you have a great day!
One thing that made me happy today is I was able to talk to 3 out of 4 of my immediate family members today/night… that always makes me happy! If phoned my brother I could have made it a perfect 5! (Well… since we all know I talk to myself…)
Day 11
I worked this morning, and was in a hurry… so a smoothie to go, and a 1/4 c of Wildroots Trail Mix for snack
In the smoothie:
- 2 handfuls of spinach
- 1/4 of Pomegranate's seeds
- 1c of summer fruit mix
- 1 cup of ice
- 1 scoop Promisil Chocolate Protein powder
- splash of skim milk as it was too thick!
- Lunch
Our cabinet installers were here and kind of gave us the hint to go out and have lunch, as we were in their way after work…
So off to the Deli we went!
Chef Salad minus the ham and turkey, substituted half a chicken breast with cajun seasoning, with Thousand Island dressing on the side. (I had already ate a couple of the cukes before taking photo, Oops!)
I am happy I am sore today, as it means I have been working out! Thanks Laura… although being able to put my coat on is normally at good thing, right??
Post- Bootcamp
Well I survived… my first Boot Camp Class with Laura!
To keep me accountable here were my fitness stats today:
- Wall Squat 1 min (it is what she wanted us to be able to try for… I held on NO longer than I had to!)
- Holding a Plank 1min (I did this one pretty easily full arms and toes, I know I can improve it!)
- # of Pushups in 1 min = 30 (I made sure I did with as much correct posture as I could muster… on toes)
- # of Crunches in 1 min= 41 (I did these with the conscious effort to hold the crunch in the middle and controlled my core the whole time)
We didn't have to do the 1 mile run due to the winter windstorm that was going on outside. Thank goodness!
I didn't know I was THAT out of shape… well I knew, it was just hard demonstrating it to everyone watching! lol
In addition to the great class Laura sent us home with some Canada Food Guide nutritional materials…
If you are in Central Alberta look up Total Body Fitness, Laura Bothe is a great instructor and travels to several smaller towns to teach classes. As well she does at home personal training. On her personal Blog she is doing a 365 days of Motivational Quotes this year! Check her out, if your anything like me, the more motivation to get me moving and living healthier the better!!
Lunch was quick!
- Half a Thin Bun with some spinach, salmon and Frank's Red Hot (I later had the other half)
- 1/2 c Seaweed salad
- 6 cherries
If I would have to pinpoint one happy point in my day I would have to say the fact I WENT and finished a boot camp class…
Otherwise, I had a great day with Picky Hubby working on renos, found out that the cabinet finish will be warrantied (most likely) enjoyed eating at the island with our 4th new stool that finally arrived today, and I finally got a box mailed containing Christmas/ Birthday presents to some family! (No worries not kid presents!!) Yes I know SAD!!
Oh, and I schooled Bubba in Just Dance 3!
Oh, FYI my families stats for a wall squat…
Picky Hubby= 34 sec
Bubba=1:01min (after doing just 55 sec and realizing I beat him he had to redo it! lol)
Stinky= 24 sec
Oh, and my second attempt post bootcamp, 7 sec, as I had no ambition to do anymore!
Have you ever went to bootcamp? What are your thoughts? Leave your comments below…
Pre- Bootcamp
Breakfast today was another egg bowl
- 1 whole egg
- 2 egg whites
- handful of baby spinach
- 3 tablespoons of homemade salsa
On the side I had a ONE coconut water with a splash of Guava. It is probably one of my favourite coconut water combinations, I love the refreshing taste of the guava with the coconut water.
Today I start bootcamp I am SOOOOOooooo worried Laura is going to bring me to the point of tears! She is a coworker, and I am sure there will be NO MERCY! lol
Before I headed out I had a handful of trail mix…
Wish me luck!
Day 9
Today is a work day, and despite being in a rush I was able to quickly make this breakfast to keep me full of energy for my day!
- 1 whole egg
- 1 egg white
- 1oz chicken breast (home roasted)
- handful of spinach
Later in the morning Picky Hubby delivered me some of the left over smoothie from the weekend to work. I just had him add some ice and some more spinach as there wasn't much left. I would have brought it myself but our ice maker had been turned off and of course you do not realize it, till you need some! Sorry no photo 😛
I snacked on 1/4 of a Pomegranate at school, then grazed the rest of the day…
I could tell you I ate some of the chicken cold from the fridge, and I did steal a chocolate (or two) from the pantry… otherwise I am blanking on what I ate.
As for what made me happy today, hrmm… I liked watching Stinky practice and the improvements he is making!
Day 8: Allergies and Flowers
Today, I was supposed to play hockey, but I have been having some allergy symptoms again. I have some food allergies, but these were not to my known allergy foods, and would be after I drank or ate.
I am sticking with only known foods and drinks that I know I can handle tomorrow and eliminating diet pop, as I drank more than normal this weekend, and I think it was aggravating things.
I may be starting to food journal on here, or on My Fitness Pal to keep better track of what I am eating. For health reasons and to try and figure out what might be the trigger. Now I have a reason to kick start eating clean again!
As for what made me happy?? Well it really started making me happy on Friday, but here it is…
Thank you Picky Hubby for the flowers for no reason to brighten my day! Delivery ones, while he was at work to boot!
I guess I will keep him 😉

Posts Tagged 'PHP'.
We are pleased to present below all posts tagged with 'PHP'.
You know, we use ad-blockers as well. We gotta keep those servers running though. Did you know that we publish useful books and run friendly conferences — crafted for pros like yourself? E.g. our upcoming SmashingConf New York, dedicated to smart front-end techniques and design patterns.
We are pleased to present below all posts tagged with 'PHP'.
In this article I'll be taking a look at how to build a simple yet robust workflow for developing sites that require PHP and MySQL. I'll show you how to use Vagrant to create and run a web server on your own computer, with the version of PHP your live site runs. I also demonstrate a process for using a hosted service to deploy files in a robust way to your live server.
This article is for you if you currently have no way to test your PHP and MySQL sites locally, or use something like MAMP or XAMPP. The second half of the article will help you move away from uploading files using FTP to a process that is far less likely to cause you problems.Read more...
Building and maintaining a WordPress plugin can be a daunting task. The bigger the codebase, the harder it is to keep track of all the working parts and their relationship to one another. And you can add to that the limitations imposed by working in an antiquated version of PHP, 5.2.
In this article we will explore an alternative way of developing WordPress plugins, using the lessons learned from the greater PHP community, the world outside WordPress. We will walk through the steps of creating a plugin and investigate the use of autoloading and a plugin container.Read more...
In this tutorial, we will create a new "brand" entity in Magento that can be managed through the admin panel. Once we are finished, you will be able to create, update and delete brands that can be viewed in the front-end independently, much in the same way that you can interact with existing entities such as "products" and "categories."
In addition, we will associate our new brand entity with other Magento entities, such as products. The process itself is quite lengthy because I will explain each step in detail, but it really is easy once you know how, and it's a great example of how powerful the Magento platform can be with minimal effort.Read more...
Session storage is a new feature introduced by the W3C's "Web Storage" specification. It's supported in Internet Explorer 8+, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera Desktop (for a complete list, please consult "Can I Use").
var total = parseInt( sessionStorage.getItem( "total" ) );
var quantity = 2;
var updatedTotal = total * quantity;
sessionStorage.setItem( "total", updatedTotal ); // '240', a string
In this series of articles, we'll cover in depth a practical implementation of session storage by creating a complete e-commerce shopping cart with the
sessionStorage object and jQuery.
In this tutorial, we will use Magento's powerful shipping-method code abstraction to create a shipping carrier. We will create two shipping methods that provide a fixed shipping price, allow for free shipping promotions, define logic based on an item's weight and, finally, make it all configurable in the admin panel.
This tutorial assumes that you are familiar with how to create a Magento module. If you are not, please first refer to an earlier tutorial in this series, "The Basics of Creating a Magento Module." To begin, you will need a Community or Enterprise installation of Magento, either locally or on a server that you are able to access.Read more...
Editor's Note: Today we are happy to present to you the second part of the sample chapter from the upcoming printed Smashing Book #4: New Perspectives on Coding, written by Paul Tero. You might want to read the first part of this chapter beforehand — if you haven't already. Also, feel free to download the full chapter from the Smashing eBook Library.
Imagine that you wake up one morning, reach groggily for your laptop and fire it up. You've just finished developing a brand new website and last night you were proudly clicking through the product list. The browser window is still open, the Widget 3000 is still sparkling in its AJAXy newness.
You grin like a new parent and expectantly click on "More details". And nothing happens. You click again, still nothing. You press Refresh and get that annoying swirling icon and then the page goes blank. Help! The Internet is gone!Read more...
In this tutorial, we introduce the Magento layout by creating a simple module that will add some custom HTML content to the bottom of every customer-facing page, in a non-intrusive manner. In other words, we will do so without actually modifying any Magento templates or core files.
At our company, we process a lot of requests on the leading gift cards and coupons websites in the world. The senior developers had a meeting in late October to discuss working on a solution to replicate the MySQL functions of
AES_ENCRYPT and
AES_DECRYPT in the language of PHP.
This article centers on what was produced from Senior Developer Derek Woods and how to use it within your own applications. Security should be on the top of every developers mind when building an application that could hold sensitive data. We wanted to replicate MySQL's functions because we have a lot of our data already AES encrypted in our database, and if you are like us you probably do as well.Read more...
WordPress shortcodes were introduced in version 2.5 and since then have proved to be one of the most useful features. The average user acting as editor has the ability to publish dynamic content using macros, without the need for programming skills.
When a shortcode is inserted in a WordPress post or page, it is replaced with some other content. In other words, we instruct WordPress to find the macro that is in square brackets (
[]) and replace it with the appropriate dynamic content, which is produced by a PHP function.

The car is an absolute blast to drive and is clean both physically and mechanically. The car has been lovingly and meticulously cared for and looked after throughout its life. Full maintenance records will be available for inspection by any prospective buyer.
Always driven responsibly, with special attention given to the special characteristics of the S54 motor (i.e. never revved to redline (which many have suspected over the years to have been set too high by the manufacturer), and always allowed time for the oil to warm up before putting the car in any stress). This car has never been tracked or auto crossed, nor has it been modified with aftermarket performance parts of any kind. New rear tires (Conti Extreme Contact DWS).
This car is phenomenal and still puts a smile on my face when I get behind the wheel. The only reason I am selling is to relocate to the New York City area (not worth it). Thank you for looking, and please feel free to contact me with any questions.
The car will be available for viewing beginning 9/2/12.
Price is $20,000.

Has anyone gotten the File | Save As Special | TeX command to work in
Mathematica 3.0 Beta yet? It doesn't prompt me for a file name or

Vertu's latest issue proves again that the rarefied world of luxury gadgets is impervious to good taste. It's been selling cellphones aimed at lottery winners for ten years now, and offers the "Rococo Constellation" in celebration of this achievement.
Offered in blandly loud colors and featuring designs modeled on the dessicated ropes of snot left when a slugtrail dries in the morning sun, these new models aim to conjour the elaborate whimsy of a late 18th-century French masterpiece.

My name is Alysha and I am a Western Oklahoma State Pioneer. I am President of Psi Beta, a member of Phi Theta Kapa, a charter member of Rotaract, but my favorite of all, I'm a Western Pioneer Jazz Band member. I am not a music major but band is still my favorite. Why is band my favorite? Without having band in my college life, I would feel like something is missing. Band is my favorite because its fun. I don't know what I would do without band. It keeps me motivated, not just in band class, but all my classes. Sometimes, classes get stressful when your learning so much information all at once. For me, I tend to focus on the stress and not so much the learning I'm taking in, but in band, its improvement I can feel and hear. Knowing that I can get better at playing just by practice and hard work, I know I can get through any studies with the same amount of dedication as I give to band. Not only do I love playing here at Western, but I love the environment it holds. Rehearsals can be fun and concerts are exciting. The band members are great with others because we know that we have to work as a group to achieve the sound we want. Not one person that chooses to be in band is left out. Whether or not you are a music major, first chair material or just beginning, you are welcomed here at Western Oklahoma State College band. Mr. Gardner makes class fun for everyone that joins and that is why I enjoy being a Pioneer Band member over all my other extra college activities.

Quarter round in basement?
We had a laminate floor installed in our basement when it was finished recently. There are noticeable gaps between th base boards and the floor. Fanfold was used as an underlayment so theres a little bounce to the flooe resulting in the gaps I guess. Anyway, the contractor said that he can't install quarter round for two reasons...
First he said he can't nail it into the floor since the floor is obviously cement under the wood. Ok, that makes sense.
Then he said that he can't glue the quarter round to the floor because it won't hold up. I'm not sure why....
If you just glue the bottom of the quarter round to the floor and not the wall, it can still expand.
He wants to use flexible caulk instead which I'm not very happy with.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Sounds like it was not installed by someone with any pride in what they do. I cant see how anyone would consder that a "finished" installation of flooring. If the gaps are less then half an inch, you can put on baseboards like suggested above, if the gaps are larger, baseboards first, then quarter round, and the quarter round can be nailed to or glued to the baseboards.
There is baseboard moulding.
The gap is between the baseboard moulding and the floor.
Is there a reason you can't put quarter round down in this situation?
Sure why not, you could glue and brad it to the flooring useing the right length of brad or you can brad it into the baseboard. Sounds to me hes just plain lazy and doesent want to spend the extra time. Do not let him caulk it, it will discolor and look terrible.
Sounds like inexperience to me....
BTW: Quarter round or "Shoe-base" is supposed to be nailed into the Baseboard, not the floor.

LESLEY AND TIMOTHY'S WEDDINGMay, 2010 in Estes Park
"Our wedding was absolutely perfect. And I am not the type of girl who really cared all that much to begin with! Beautiful setting, fabulous company. A late spring wedding in the mountains was a little risky but we ended up getting wonderful weather -- some of our friends got a sunburn from hanging out at the pool! But the wedding was sandwiched on either side by snow. Guests enjoyed the quaintness of Estes as well as the great hiking!"

"Staff was AWESOME! Very helpful, accommodating, and flexible. Our wedding was a little different from their "norm" and they were with us every step of the way to make it exactly what we wanted. Our weekend was right before their summer rates began so there was a discount for the wedding as well as the pre-season rates for our guests. The guests LOVED the condos and the fact that they didn't have to drive anywhere to get to the wedding - makes for a much more relaxing day! And we felt better knowing our guests wouldn't be driving any mountain roads on the way home."

I was wondering if my morph (right) looks more harmonious than my current nasal result (left). With the morph, I tried for conservative changes, including a slight extension of the nasal bone's root, and including a noticeable trim of the lower dorsal-tip's "parrot beak".
My goal is a more harmonious, less masculine nose that gives a distinction of symmetry rather than a distinction of size; I feel like my goal was not tackled and even made worse with previous surgery. Any insight or thoughts?
