If being from St. Louis weren't already embarrassing, here's the rally squirrel, immortalized in gaudy jewels and precious metal. The rings, as noted in these consecutively written sentences were presented to the Cardinals yesterday and are meant to encapsulate the entire season.
The "rally squirrel" is captured in full stride, same as he entered Cardinals' lore when he scampered across home plate during Skip Schumaker's at-bat in the National League division series against Philadelphia.
"For us, it is just a legitimate classic ring, and every time you look at, it you'll find something new," said Chris Poitras, director of sports marketing and sports for Jostens, the manufacturer of the ring.

Mitt Romney's President Obama's universe healthcare plan appears to be on a collision course with the Supreme Court, and people are taking to the streets to protest a government they feel caters to the wealthy. So the timing couldn't be better for writer-director's Andrew Niccol's new sci-fi thriller, "In Time," about a guy who finds himself on the run after receiving a lifesaving windfall. Unfortunately, the film isn't nearly as good as the timing.
Set in a future where we've been genetically engineered to display on our forearm the amount of time we have left to live, "In Time" stars Justin Timberlake as Will Salas (pronounced "solace," of course), a work-a-day hump living literally day to day.
Like everyone else, Will was born with a year's credit on his arm, but it wasn't available to him until he reached his 25th birthday, at which point his body stopped aging. The entire economy is based on time, and you present your wrist like an E-Z Pass to pay for anything, and to transfer funds between two people you need only touch wrists.
One night Will meets millionaire Henry Hamilton (Matt Bomer), a 105-year-old man who's had enough and decides to give Will more than a century before committing suicide. This chain of events immediately makes our hero a murder suspect, a situation he makes worse by taking hostage a billionaire's daughter, Sylvia Weis (Amanda Seyfried), and there's a murderous thug on the loose, Fortis (a shockingly well cast Alex Pettyfer), who feels that Will stole Henry's minutes from him.
Any time a filmmaker decides to guess at the future, there are countless pitfalls of which to beware, but Niccol's vision is too incomplete and/or incongruous. In a world where they've managed to convert the entire economy to a time-based system, why is it that the security measures in place to protect people's assets aren't as good as today's bank cards? Why is it that all your wealth can be taken from you by grabbing your hand? How is it that we don't yet have cellphone chips implanted in our heads? In the future envisioned by Niccol, all the technological advancements have been in the service of time, while in all other facets of life, from fashion to banking, we've moved backwards.
And even if you let go of the technological failings of "In Time," there's a host of philosophical issues. First, don't we already live in a world where time is money? Isn't "a dollar" just another way to say "three minutes"?
U.S. & World
The phrase "For a few to be immortal, many must die," is uttered more than once, much to Will's outrage, but that just makes sense, no? If people don't die, we'd run out of room, as Hamilton notes, so we need people to die, right? In the same speech, Hamilton says there's more than enough time that no one needs to die "before their time."
OK, let's pretend that all the rich folk agree to share their wealth—do we leave it to people to decide on their own that it's time to die? Or do we live in a world with death panels? The villain, Philippe Weis (is that name bougie and "white" enough for you?), sneers at one point that sharing his time won't really help poor people, it will only prolong their misery, which sounds pretty cold until you remember that one guy drank himself to death earlier in the film, after being gifted a large chunk of time.
All could be forgiven—or at the very least overlooked—if "In Time" were an immersive stone-cold thrill ride, but it's not. There's not a single twist or unexpected turn, all the characters are fairly static, and Niccol fails to create a fully formed future, as he did for "Gattacca."
Timberlake and Seyfried "look cute together", as she notes, but it's hard to take the pair seriously as a futuristic Bonnie & Clyde, as they lack both the hard-edged rage and maniacal glee that made than film so good.
"In Time" is a well-intentioned thriller that fails emotionally, intellectually and visually, leaving you scratching your head rather than shaking your fist.

Jays @ Twins pregame
It's no coincidence that Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi mentioned Ricky Romero as a rotation candidate again yesterday, a few days after Casey Janssen fell out of the running due to muscle tightness near his right shoulder. With Janssen out, Romero is being given another look.
"That's one of the reasons," manager Cito Gaston said on Sunday. "He's pitched over at the complex, too. He's pitched well. I guess the last time we played Philly, J.P. went over and watched him pitch and [pitching coach Brad] Arnsberg has been working with him and he really says he's come on quick. He retains well and I'm looking forward to seeing him tomorrow.
"I know he has the arm to pitch here, that's for sure. He really does."
Romero is being handed six innings in tomorrow's "A" game against the Reds in Sarasota, Fla. Righty Jesse Litsch will move over to Minor League camp to get his scheduled start in. Today, we've got Scott Richmond and Matt Clement set to make their case for a job. Sp, another day, another element added to the rotation situation.
Still no word on the signing of Shawn Hill to a Minor League contract. He's talking to other teams as well, but the Jays remain very much in the picture. When and if he signs, I will be sure to let you guys know. Jays assistant GM Tony LaCava said Leon Boyd will likely open at Double-A.

I can't think of a better place for Shawn to try and resurrect his career. With the rotation depleted it's a good chance for him to get a shot down the line when more injuries occur.
Sounds like Arnsberg is pleased with the results Romero is getting after the delivery mechanic fix. The only remaining issue with Romero is, someone will need to calm him down before he throws the first pitch in his first 5-10 starts.
I have said before, of all the guys, Romero has the best stuff, its just getting it over the plate,eliminating the BB's and believing in himself.
If he does that, he will be more than just effective, he will be a very good starter.
My take is this could be the last day Clements is taken seriously as a starter if he doesn't perform exceptionally well. Even if he does, I still think the odds favor Richmond over Clements.
I know a number disagree, but an 86 mph fastball with little movement is going to get wacked most times out.
Was that ugly or what? Clement goes 4.1, gives up 6 hits, 7 bb's, 9 runs. Had to be hard to watch.
Looks like I will have to eat my words on Clement – what an ugly line today.
I'd expect we send Clements to the minor league camp in the next day or so. Cito has to start thinking about getting the 5 starters ready for opening day which is only two weeks away and they still want to look at Romero again.
I wonder if Clements goes down or retires?
So I'd say 4 starters are Halliday, Litsch, Purcey and Richmond. The last spot still up for grabs is between Mills and Romero. It will be interesting to see how Romero pitches tommorrow.
I dont see how Richmond has clinched a spot i think the rotation will look like this: Halladay, Litsch, Purcey, Mills, Romero. And if and WHEN there is an injury or a under achieving starter then Cecil will get the call.
Richmond will go North with the team for sure, he is a good #5 starter on any team. Shawn Hill will be another waste of money, I for one hope they can't land him.
Halladay has not looked good this spring I hope he's not hurting somewhere.Adams is making a case to stay with the team, I wonder what will happen to him.
Adams is having a great spring. He would be a good candidate for a bench job this year if a few guys go down. Until then he is destined for AAA.
I would like to se Adams traded to a team that will give him a chance, but I don't think we can get anything for him, also I wonder when he will be a free agent.
I believe Adams becomes a minor league free agent if he doesn't make the team and there is no room for him here.
Adams has always had a reasonable bat, his defense has always let him down, even in AAA last year. I just don't see anyone picking him up for a mlb job.

You can have the same character for RHG and dojo duels.
The difference is that the dojo has a focus on its own continuity and there's a more rigid system in place for telling a story in the Dojo's setting, because it's been established and has notable landmarks and history.

Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: we'd have to agree that yes, this is the best Matt Moore has ever played.
Matt Moore joined WQAM in Miami with Joe Rose to talk about whether or not he is playing the best football of his career, how important it is to get so many different players involved in the offense, how nice it is to have the running game Miami has had recently, what changed after the 0-7 start to the season, and what he would say to the Miami fans that still want the Dolphins to draft a quarterback.
Whether or not he is playing the best football of his career:
"I guess you could say that. It's been a good couple of weeks here. You just gotta credit the guys around me and the coaches for putting together a pretty good plan. When guys are out there making plays they make it really easy and it's not to be a part of."
How important it has been for Miami to get so many different players involved in the offense:
"Well there's no doubt. That's only going to create more problems for a defense when there are six guys or however many guys that can get the ball. They have to keep their eye on everybody. Yeah I think that's a goal of Coach Daboll's to get everybody involved, but at the same time I think I'm extremely comfortable with everybody running any type of route. He's not afraid to do anything with anybody and has a lot of faith in his players."
Whether or not the running game has allowed for better success in the passing game:
"There's no doubt. I think the offensive line was fired up, they had a task at hand, and they attacked. When Reggie (Bush) is running great, he's seeing the holes and I told him on the sidelines 'well you have a little more shake to you today.' He kinda took offense and I was like 'well you always have shake but a little more today.' And he did. It's just fun to see him running the ball like that and when he does it makes the throwing game, it's still impactful but I guess we don't have to be as powerful in that area."
What changed for the team after the 0-7 start:
"I don't know. I think guys have just taken it on themselves. I said this yesterday in the postgame that each guy is inspiration for the next guy. (Kevin) Burnett making plays like the interception and Davone (Bess) making plays on offense, other guys are seeing it and it's firing everybody up. There was never a disbelief in the locker room being at 0-7, we constantly say this but our attitudes were so good and it was pretty impressive actually because it would've been easy to just go in the tank but I didn't think that was going to happen for a second. Guys just kept working, are continuing to work, and it's a long season, a lot can happen, and I think that's the attitude guys have had. They've gone out and played good ball."
What he would say to the fans that still want Miami to draft a QB:
"Well I'd like to think that I know my role on this team and my role on this team now is the starting quarterback because it's the truth,. That's just the way it is now. People can say what they want to say it doesn't matter who is out there playing, that guy has to play well. As far as drafting a guy that's kinda out of my control. All I can do is play well on the field and put W's on the board and people that have to make those decisions will make those decisions when the time comes but I'm just trying to play good football now, get some wins, and move forward."

23 reviews for v7 Pillowtop Single-Sided Mattress
Less back pain on the morning and more energy. Soften up the over all mattress….more "cloud like".
wonderful bed! It does take a while to get used to the height of the bed but I feel like a princess climbing into my bed. the height is an issue for my husband since he is short. Other than that, wonderful sleeping
The pillow top is just a little soft for me.
No more shoulder pain. It must have been a pressure point on the old mattress.
Nothing, I love it…never slept better
The new Verlo bed has made a world of difference. Both are sleeping much better.
Thank you for a good nights sleep
So comfortable! Very satisfied
Should have bought one sooner!!!!
Bed is too firm. We will need to make it softer (more plush)
It is taking quite a long time for the new smell it dissipate
Don't like the way that it sinks down when you sit on it
Real handles to move and carry. Love it.
The worst part of this mattress is getting off of it in the morning simply because I do not want to! It's amazing. The edge support is not outstanding.
Would like it for less than $1,000, but it is worth it.
It's a great mattress and we love it
LOVE, LOVE our new bed!! Restful sleep! No more waking up with a sore back or shoulder anymore! Thank you!!!!
Great combination of being firm but soft and comfy.
My Back does not hurt any more. I'd like it to be self-rotating. Let me know when you figure out how to do that. 🙂
Don't wake up achy. Keep up the great work. You definitely have a wonderful product!
I don't toss & turn anymore and my back & neck don't hurt anymore! It's hard to find quality affordable sheets that fit well.
I sleep so much better on my Verlo mattress than I did on my old mattress. I get deep, relaxing sleep that has been very beneficial to me. I am worried about the handles sewn in to the sides of the mattress. The mattress is fairly heavy, so moving it puts a lot of force on the handles. I try not to put too much force on them because I am afraid of ripping them.
I called the Peoria,Il office after 1 1/2 years. Wanting to restuff more. They came out when I asked. Took mattress in morning returned the afternoon!! I love my verlo v7 pillow top single sided mattress!!
Thank you Verlo Peoria crew

- Professor McGonagall: "Is that where -- ?"
- Dumbledore: "Yes. He'll have that scar forever."
- — Minerva McGonagall and Albus Dumbledore talking about Harry's lightning-bolt scar[src]
The lightning-bolt scar
- "Yes. That ain't no ordinary cut on your forehead, Harry. A mark like that only comes from being touched by a curse, and an evil curse at that."
- —Rubeus Hagrid to Harry Potter[src]
A scar on Harry Potter's forehead in the shape of a lightning bolt[1] is the result of a failed murder attempt by Lord Voldemort on 31 October, 1981, when he struck 15-month-old Harry with the Killing Curse. Harry is the only known person to survive the curse because his mother's loving sacrifice protected him.[2] Unbeknownst to Voldemort, the incident also inadvertently made Harry into a Horcrux, as a piece of the Dark Lord's soul embedded itself in Harry.
Realising the connection
- Lucius Malfoy: "Haven't you always wondered what was the reason for the connection between you and the Dark Lord? Why he was unable to kill you when you were just an infant? Don't you want to know the secret of your scar? All the answers are there, Potter, in your hand. All you have to do is give it to me."
- Harry Potter: "I've waited fourteen years..."
- Lucius Malfoy: "I know."
- Harry Potter: "I guess I can wait a little longer..."
- — Lucius Malfoy trying to persuade Harry to hand him the Prophecy in the Department of Mysteries[src]
In the years to come, Harry's scar hurt whenever Voldemort was close, or whenever he was in danger from the Dark Lord or his followers, the Death Eaters, such as when one set off the Dark Mark near him in 1994. When Harry was forced to confront the newly returned Voldemort in the graveyard in Little Hangleton in 1995, his scar burned terribly.[3]
- Dumbledore: "I guessed, 15 years ago, when I saw the scar on your forehead, what it might mean. I guessed that it might be the sign of a connection forged between you and Voldemort."
- Harry: "You've told me this before, Professor."
- Dumbledore: "Yes, Yes, but you see...it is necessary to start with your scar. For it became apparent, shortly after you rejoined the magical world, that I was correct, and that your scar was giving you warnings when Voldemort was close to you, or else feeling powerful emotion. And this ability of yours...to detect Voldemort's presence, even when he is disguised, and to know what he is feeling when his emotions are roused...has become more and more pronounced since Voldemort returned to his own body and his full powers..."
- — Albus Dumbledore to Harry Potter[src]
In June of 1996, Voldemort used the link to send Harry a false vision of his godfather being tortured in order to lure him to the Department of Mysteries, where he and his friends were attacked and a battle ensued. Voldemort briefly possessed Harry at the end of this battle, but when Harry focused on feelings of grief for his beloved, murdered godfather, Voldemort experienced great pain and pulled out from his mind. Dumbledore theorised that Voldemort would never attempt to enter Harry's mind again.[4]
Using and destroying the link
Although Harry never mastered Occlumency, he did eventually learn to exert moderate control over the connection between himself and Voldemort. While searching for the Horcruxes with Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, he felt his scar burn many times, on the occasions when Voldemort was angry, and was able to glimpse his thoughts and perceptions at those times. For example, when Harry questioned Mr. Ollivander about the existence of the Elder Wand, he had seen a vision from the past in which Ollivander was telling Voldemort that Gregorovitch had the Elder Wand. He also saw Voldemort ordering Draco Malfoy to torture Thorfinn Rowle through Voldemort's eyes. When Harry focused on feelings associated with love, such as his anguish over Hermione being tortured by Bellatrix Lestrange or his grief over Dobby's death, he was able to block out his link to Voldemort.[5]
After Harry learned that he was a Horcrux, he willingly went to what he believed would be his death. Voldemort's Killing Curse, however, only destroyed the piece of his own soul that was inside of Harry, thus eliminating their link. Harry survived, and went to defeat Voldemort once and for all. Since the pain from his scar was caused by the portion of Voldemort's soul within him trying to escape, Harry never felt any more pain from the scar once Voldemort had eliminated that portion of soul.[5]
Scars on Harry's hand
- Ron: "Bloody hell, Harry. The woman's torturing you... If the parents knew about this..."
- Harry: "I haven't got any of those, have I, Ron?"
- Hermione: "But, Harry, you've got to report this."
- — Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger when they see the scars on Harry's hand[src]
Dolores Umbridge, a Ministry employee, became Defence Against the Dark Arts professor and High Inquisitor of Hogwarts in Harry's fifth year. She pushed the Ministry's position that Lord Voldemort had not returned, and that Harry and Dumbledore were liars or nutters for saying otherwise. Harry argued with her about this on numerous occasions, resulting in her assigning him detentions. She made him write lines with a Blood Quill, which used his own blood as ink. As a result, Harry was left with scar on his right hand reading "I must not tell lies" that are white when he clenches his hand, usually when he is filled with hate upon hearing about Umbridge. The scars tingle whenever Harry hears or touches Umbridge's name, or any reference to her.
Other possible scars
There are some injuries which Harry received that may have left scars.
The locket scar
- "I couldn't get the Horcrux off you. It was stuck, stuck to your chest. You've got a mark; I'm sorry, I had to use a Severing Charm to get it away." He pulled the sweaty T-shirt he was wearing away from himself and looked down. There was a scarlet oval over his heart where the locket had burned him."
- —Hermione Granger and Harry Potter in 1997 after Harry's rescue[src]
After Harry and Hermione narrowly escaped from Voldemort's snake in Godric's Hollow in late 1997, Hermione took care of Harry, who was injured during his struggle with Nagini. Some time during the fight, the locket Horcrux that Harry had been wearing around his neck attached itself to the skin on his chest and resisted detachment to the point that Hermione had to use a Severing Charm to remove it. This left an oval-shaped scar over Harry's heart; it is unknown if it eventually healed or if it left a permanent scar.
It is unknown why the locket held onto Harry as it did. It may have responded to Voldemort's desires, as Nagini, another Horcrux, did at the same time. It may have also simply reacted to being in the presence of another Horcrux, as Harry's scar on his forehead reacted to proximity to Voldemort and to Nagini. The locket first pressed against Harry when Nagini coiled around him, "squeezing the air from him, pressing the Horcrux hard into his chest, a circle of ice that throbbed with life, inches from his own frantic heart".[5]
Nagini's bite scar
- "The snake bit you too, but I've cleaned the wound and put some Dittany on it..."
- —Hermione Granger to Harry Potter[src]
When Nagini attacked Harry when he and Hermione ventured to Godric's Hollow on 24 December, 1997, the snake bit him on the forearm. After Disapparating, Hermione put some Dittany on the wound. By the time Harry woke up, the bite was "half-healed".[5] It is unknown if this left a scar, because although Dittany generally repairs damage to the skin, Nagini was a venomous snake, which may have exacerbated the injury. When she bit Arthur Weasley in 1995, the healers at St. Mungo's had a difficult time keeping the wound closed because her poison dissolved his stitches[4] and was immune to common magical forms of healing. Nagini may not have given Harry as severe a bite because Voldemort ordered her to hold him, not to kill him.[5] Harry's own nature as a Horcrux may also have been a factor.
Cut on Harry's forearm
During the Return of the Dark Lord, Peter Pettigrew slashed Harry's arm with a knife in order to obtain Harry's blood. This blood was used as an ingredient in the dark potion that returned Lord Voldemort to his body. It is unknown if this gash became a scar.
Behind the scenes
- According to J. K. Rowling during a web chat with her, the lightning scar no longer burns or hurts after Voldemort's defeat.[6]
- J. K. Rowling stated that the pain from Harry's scar on his forehead is caused by the piece of Voldemort's soul trying to leave his body through the wound it entered to rejoin its master's soul.[7]
- In the films, Harry's scar is off-centre on his forehead. This was done at J. K. Rowling's insistence, because many fans believe that the scar is in the middle of his forehead, since this is where illustrations in the American books depict it; however the British books depict it off-centre, but the scar's location is never mentioned in the books' text. It is, however, hinted to be on the right side of his forehead (in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix it says Harry received pain above his right eye). It was also mentioned that it was in a location easily covered by his hair.
- The scar on Harry's forehead prompted Draco Malfoy to come up with and use the mocking nickname of "Scarhead" for Harry, which he first uttered during the Quidditch match of Gryffindor versus Slytherin in 1992,[8] but used multiple times since.
- In the film version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the scars on Harry's left hand read "I must not tell lies". Also, he has scars on his right hand saying "I will not break rules" (done after Umbridge found the Dumbledore's Army).
- Prince William, Duke of Cambridge revealed that he has a scar similar to Harry Potter's on his forehead. He calls it his "Harry Potter scar" because it glows sometimes, and some people notice it, while at other times they do not notice it at all.[9]
- Before Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was released, J. K. Rowling stated that the last word of the book would be "scar." She changed her mind in the end, and the last word is "well", although Harry's scar is mentioned in the penultimate sentence of the book.
- The cut that Pettigrew gave Harry in the Little Hangleton Graveyard is similar to the Dark Mark in its location and length.

Last week Mishu requested mommy to make the "colorful ball in soup" when she see one of her new winter scarf have colorful small ball attached at the end.I promised her that I will make "colorful ball in soup" when the day comes..This time I adapted Tang Yuen recipe from Lily .I think her method using boiling water first is a very good way to make the rice ball texture soft and bouncy not soft and mushy.
1 lb glutinious flour mix with 2 tablespoon of sugar,plus extra for dusting
1 cup of boiling water
1 cup of room temperature water
Various food coloring
1:Pour hot water into glutinious flour and using a wooden spoon, mix the dough. Slowly add some room temperature water and keep adding water till you get a dough that doesn't stick to your hand. Just add flour or water to get the right consistency.
2:Once the dough is pliable, separate them into small portions and add food colourings.
3:Roll dough into small oblong shape 1 diameter,cut about 1 inch each before roll dough on your palm to tiny consistent size balls.
4:Bring a large pot of water to the boil and drop in the balls.( I add few drop of oil )Once they float, they are cooked.
4:Prepare a big bowl of cold water . Scoop the cooked tang yuan from the pot and put them in the bowl of water.
1:Cook rock sugar, ginger slices , pandan leaves,palm sugar and water to make a sweet syrup. Adjust to your taste..
2:Cool syrup before adding in the cooked balls.
Serve at room temperature.

Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino has been "100 percent" sober for the last 18 months, he told People in comments published Wednesday.
The 34-year-old "Jersey Shore" alum has battled a prescription drug addiction for years but is sober after his second stint in rehab. Sorrentino had undergone a 2-month rehab stint for the same issue in 2012.
The news comes a week after Sorrentino and his brother Marc Sorrentino pleaded not guilty after being indicted for tax evasion, structuring and falsifying records. The charges followed their 2014 indictment for tax offenses, in which federal prosecutors accused them of failing to pay taxes on $8.9 million. They had pleaded not guilty then as well. A trial is set for next year.
U.S. & World
Sorrentino told People he had initially worked out to cope with the stress in his life, but cracked his ribs at the gym in 2015 and was prescribed painkillers, which caused his relapse.
"From there it was just a spiral," he said. "Your emotions are blocked. So you really ruin relationships with everyone in your life."
His comments were also made ahead of Friday's premiere of the WE TV reality show spinoff, "Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition," which features him, Marc and their other brother, Frank Jr.
"[Mike] Sorrentino wants to fix things with his brothers Marc and Frank Jr.," read a WE TV statement. "With the looming threat of jail time for tax evasion putting a major strain on their relationship, these three brothers must put their pride aside to bring their family back together."

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--First graph, first sentence, date of completion of M5 Networks acquisition should read: March 23, 2012 (sted March 22, 2012).
The corrected release reads:
Addition of Hosted Unified Communications Solution Positions ShoreTel to Lead in the Emerging Cloud Services Market
ShoreTel® (NASDAQ:SHOR), the leading provider of brilliantly simple premise and cloud-based business phone system and communication solutions with fully integrated unified communications (UC) and contact center capabilities, today announced it has completed its acquisition of M5 Networks as of March 23, 2012. With the addition of M5's hosted Unified Communications to its portfolio, ShoreTel is in a unique position to offer both on-premise and hosted VoIP and UC solutions. This will enable ShoreTel to attract new customers, open new channels, and increase revenue streams at a time when companies are increasingly considering cloud-based services.
"Purchasing an established provider of hosted communications and contact center services is a game-changing move that promises to differentiate ShoreTel significantly from its traditional competitors in the market for UC and contact center solutions," said analyst Brian Riggs of Current Analysis.
ShoreTel is at an advantage over competitors in the emerging hosted VoIP and UC market by acquiring M5's established hosted business model and expertise. This will accelerate ShoreTel's ability to enter the cloud market and add value to customers that are looking to deploy IP communications with all the benefits a hosted model provides. For customers that are committed to premise-based solutions, ShoreTel continues to offer IP telephony and UC solutions with the lowest TCO and highest customer satisfaction in the industry. And for companies that are still evaluating whether a hosted or on-premise solution is best for their needs, ShoreTel is the only vendor able to give unbiased advice to help them find the ideal solution.
"When I joined the company just over one year ago, I outlined a strategic plan that included three priorities: continuing to grow market share in our core premise-based business both domestically and internationally, launching ShoreTel Mobility for integrating smartphones and tablets with IP PBX systems, and introducing a cloud-based hosted solution. Now, with M5 as our hosted VoIP and UC solution, we are successfully delivering against these strategic imperatives. ShoreTel is in an excellent position to deliver unmatched value to our customers," said Peter Blackmore, CEO of ShoreTel.
Effective today, M5 is the ShoreTel Cloud Division, based in New York, led by Dan Hoffman as president and general manager.
"We pioneered hosted VoIP and UC 12 years ago and are proud of the successful track record we've achieved with more than 2,000 customers in the U.S.," said Hoffman. "Now, as part of ShoreTel, we'll have the chance to build a global brand known for an exceptional customer experience in an industry that lacks one. This will fortify our leadership position in the hosted VoIP and UC marketplace and help take ShoreTel's overall business to new heights."

I bought this back combing brush off ebay a few weeks ago after I'd misplaced my usual rat tailed comb. It was only a couple of quid so I didn't think too much of it if they didnt work. Its literally the best thing ever. I was surprised it took me so long to cave in and buy one! The comb provides a nice compact tease at the root of the hair which means you dont need to back comb too much (which can damage the hair). Personally I don't particularly find it *too* damaging (considering your backcombing!), I feel that I don't need to put too much effort into the tease, as I would with a regular comb. This is probably because of the rougher bristles, which seem to "mess up" the hair a bit more. I like the tail end as well to section off the sections of my hair that need to be teased (usually the crown and then the side parts). Its fairly easy to brush out as well which is a godsend. I spent half my teenage years trying to comb out dodgy emo hair!
Id really recommend this back combing brush if you wanted to get volume with very little effort. For the price you cant really go wrong! I know not everyone agree's with back combing, but I find its the only thing that really gives my long hair volume that actually lasts.
In the next few weeks I'll be doing a post on how I do all my hair styles, so I'll be reviewing alot of the things I actually use up until then for reference in the posts!PS. I cant believe the item sold out! It was 2 sales when I posted the link on Sunday! I have added an alternative seller selling the same brush for 10p more! Hope people like the brush as much as I do after enabling all these people to buy one!

you cannot save it. The name of this function clearly tell it's re-map for a game. Different game may have different combinations for extra buttons. So it's temporary remap.
Sorgelig wrote:I can add a way to finish remapping by pressing OSD button, so keyboard won't be required. The remaining will be the same as it's really depends on specific game. I don't see a problem to remap the button when specific game is used.
R-Type is just one of few games where autofire doesn't allow to use mega fire. This is why i've added remapping.
cloudd wrote:When using HDMI and loading a game rom sometimes I get a black screen and can hear the game playing but I can't see it. Doing a warm reboot as well as a cold reboot and reloading the rom again does not fix the problem. Unplugging the the power from the wall and applying it again usually works but sometimes I must unplug the Mister multiple times before I can load the game rom and see the video. Once it loads there are no problems.
I am using Turbografx 19.01.09.
Does anyone else seem to have this problem?
cloudd wrote:I am not sure the problem you are speaking of is the same problem as I was having? My problem seems to be fixed after deleting the files I mentioned above. When I first started using Mister I never had this problem with the Turbo Grafx/PC Engine Core. It just started happening in the last 1 1/2 weeks. Seems to be resolved now.

The cantaloupes in my garden were perfect last week, and then there was a strawberry sale at the supermarket (hence strawberries in August...), so I decided it would be the perfect time to try out one of our popsicle molds. When I was growing up, my father would make 'icees' by pouring fruit juice into dixie cups. Once frozen, we would scrape the tops with a metal spoon until there was a perfect mound of fruit-flavored 'snow' (and a few wax dixie cup shavings...). I had always thought that popsicle molds were just a little too fancy for us. Besides, the one time we did put wooden sticks into the dixie cups, they slid out of the middle before we could get the ice out from the sides - so disappointing.
Enter the perforated stick! These days, popsicle molds include a plastic stick that is perforated along the center, meaning that liquid will freeze inside of it and prevent it from sliding out of your popsicle while it melts. Genius! I used Star Popsicle Molds for this recipe. They're adorable, but I will probably need a bottle brush to properly clean them out, so if you want something you can fit a sponge into, I would go with the Groovy Popsicle Molds.
Now, you can put whatever you darn well please into a popsicle mold, but good old sweetened water (just like sorbet!) is the general beginnings. Pureed fruit or fruit juice works perfectly, so you really don't have to add extra sugar (in which case you may want to skip the ode-to-sucrose that is to come), but I am going to digress for a moment and talk about simple syrup.
I spend an inordinate amount of time in the summer preparing simple syrup. Yes, I acknowledge I have a sugar addiction - I'm working on it - but I consider simple syrup to be the non-oil answer to compound butter. Mix in some flavorings and it adds an instant boost to any beverage or frozen treat. An old Italian bakery trick is to sprinkle simple syrup between cake layers to keep them moist. The secret to the majority of flavored simple syrups is the lemon zest. Which brings me to my next point...
Sometimes we have a product that really honestly has no equal. One of those products is the Microplane zester. Microplane has a patented laser-cut zesting surface (originally produced for woodworking) that is perfectly angled and never gets dull. I've used so many other zesters and have not yet come across one that removes only the oily aromatic rind of the lemon without any of the pith (ok so a very adept barkeep can make perfect lemon zests with a cheap peeler but that takes a LOT of practice and a perfectly ripe lemon).
This recipe is going to be a bit rough on the measurements because every popsicle mold has a different capacity and because I am not particularly good at recording what I do while I do it.

Hello Archinect,
All good things must come to an end. This summer, for me, has brought a little bit of work and a lot of rest, with plenty of time to rehab my ankle, to catch up with friends, and to neurotically develop and re-develop my five-year plan reconnect with what really matters to me. It's been good.
I stayed in Cambridge for the summer. A trip to the beach tomorrow--courtesy of some good folks in the Yale School of Architecture M.Arch.I class of 2014--will in fact be my only venture out of the Boston area.
This might strike you as limited and boring. All I can say is that travel is relative: when I broke my ankle, one moment I was riding my bike down the street, and the next I was immobile on the pavement. For the next four days, the only movement I made under my own power was to sit up or lean back in my hospital bed, and even that was often accomplished with the help of the bed's motorized tilt. Then I started to travel modest distances with a walker: to the restroom; up and down the hallway; up and down some stairs on crutches and under the tutelage of a physiotherapist; and back to my apartment, which is mercifully compact and stair-free. A trip to the freezer to get ice-packs was something I'd plan in advance.
Over the next two weeks, I expanded to a radius of three blocks around my apartment, and a week after that, my crutches and a bus pass were all I needed to get to campus. Two more weeks and I was walking without crutches--which very soon extended my range because, let me tell you, we are not meant to walk on our hands and armpits. Now I can go for long walks and bicycle rides, and, with the minor inconvenience of some additional ankle swelling, could hop on a plane if I felt the urge.
But I don't feel a need to do this because, as you can maybe imagine, my sense of motion has been recalibrated. Do you remember when you took driving lessons and the teacher said to be particularly careful about your speed when you're exiting a highway, because you've adjusted to its high speeds? Same thing here, the other way around. And the lazy pace of a summer of glorious unemployment surely also helps, but a walk to the gym, to the river, or to see friends a few blocks away is enough for me at the moment. There are so many things to experience on the way--why, just today I saw this charming slug on Cambridge street.
So I've had, as you can imagine, plenty of time to consider how motion, and mobility, enact both space and time. And how our experience of both grows directly from our ability to move, whether under our own power, assisted by mechanical advantage of a bicycle, the motor of a private vehicle, or the tedious rhythm of public transit.
This leaves me both happy and a bit nervous about starting school again. The whiplash acceleration that will be imparted to my schedule and body by studio, courses, TA work, RA work--and what I am determined to maintain in terms of visits to the gym and some resemblance of a social schedule--will be interesting. I feel like a GSD veteran and a wide-eyed first-year student all at the same time.
Thanks for reading!

gf_jdw necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 261 diseños de 75 diseñadores freelance.
We provide a variety of high-end hosted application clustering, networking technologies, and professional services.
Our company name is stodgy, boring, and surprisingly uninformative given its length: Capital Equipment & Logistics, LLC. We've done business thusfar as the equally ill-conceived "CapEquiLog" about which the most common question is "What is that? French?"
So, we've chosen to change our brand and reinvented ourselves as "GridFury" with the tagline "Set the Internet on fire."
Our technology is great, but what really sets us apart is the passion, and how much we care about our customers' stuff. We feel like the new name does a good job of conveying our passion and energy.
But we need a new logo to back it up. Something unique and memorable (in a good way) that will remind people about our technology and service, and the unlimited possibilities they can achieve with our help.
Our target customers are high-tech professionals and entrepreneurs who are developing large-scale Internet applications. They need some place to host those applications that goes beyond typical "dedicated server" offerings.
They may be excellent programmers or whatever, but they aren't necessarily experts at Internet routing, datacenter power, server management, and they probably don't want to get up at 2am and go to the datacenter because they blew a hard drive or the OS needs a security patch.
So, we offer them a cluster platform (the "grid" in GridFury) that gets rid of all that hassle. We maintain the network and equipment, we keep the OS up to date and secure, and they focus on doing whatever it is that their application does.
So, we're very much about giving them a platform to build their dream app on without all the nightmares that go with it.
We have discussed two different ways of going with the logo.
Option 1 - Image-based logo
We're open to ideas, but we've a perspective grid of connected nodes with fire burning a path through the nodes from left to right. (Rough concept attached.)
However, we definitely want to keep the logo simple. Ideally we want to convey the burning-through-the-grid *idea* rather than create the most visually accurate representation possible.
I hate to say "Web 2.0" but we are definitely looking for that kind of simple, streamlined feel that you see a lot on those types of sites and, for example, a lot in Mac icons. But we want to stay professional, not childish or silly.
Option 2 - Name-based logo (E.g. the "FedEx" logo)
Just the two words, probably stacked:
with some great font/styling/coloring/decorations to bring them alive and tell our story.
General Requirements
The logo should be in color, but should also work in black and white. Given the "Set the Internet on fire!" tagline, we are leaning to a lot of hot colors: red, orange, yellow. Obviously we want color use to convey "energy" not "caution!" :)
It should be simple and scalable enough to work both small (business card / letterhead) and large (web site).
The logo or some recognizable portion should be adaptable for use as a 16x16 favicon for our site.
Thanks for considering our design request!

Playing football at the University of Nebraska is the dream of many Nebraska boys, but only a few make it come true.
A few years ago we started following one such young man and his quest to play football for the Huskers. Hartington's Russ Hochstein was a high school standout, recruited by Nebraska. He was enthusiastic and realistic about becoming a Husker, but knew there were no guarantees of success. He eventually became a starter and all-conference lineman, and last spring was drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

I know, I know. I don't want to skip over Thanksgiving! I love it! But if you want to make a meaningful experience for your children this December, it might take some prepping.
I wanted to share with you my two favorite Advent activities that I've been doing with my (little) kids the past few years.
My lovely friend Amanda has such a heart for helping parents reach their kids for Christ. A few years ago, she wrote this e-book called Truth in the Tinsel. It's an Advent experience: a 25-day guide with Scripture, crafts, activities, and application to help you tell your child the whole Christmas story – from Isaiah and the prophecies to the cross.
You can see my personal post about it here. But I just have to tell you how much my daughter enjoys this. I think this year, now that she's 5, it will be even better. The Bible stories and truths are really starting to sink into her little heart. And I think Truth in the Tinsel is one of the best ways to fight back against secular Christmas. Make your focus Jesus … not presents.
{I love Amanda's FAQ post if you have any questions about it!}
Last year I also put together a list of 25 Jesus-centered Christmas books on my own blog. I wrapped each one in Christmas paper. Last year, each night in December the kids picked one book to unwrap and read. They thought this was the BEST THING EVER, and I loved the time reading together and again, reinforcing the true meaning of Christmas.
I would really urge you to take December as yours as a parent. Refuse to go to every party and event if you need to. Spend the holidays impressing Scripture and truth on your child's heart, so you can emerge from December refreshed and in awe of God's great work through Christ.

TOTOWA, NJ -- In 40 years as a wrestler, manager, and executive, James J. Dillon has seen the past, present, and future of professional wrestling.
The past -- he's proud of it.
The present -- he's reached an uneasy truce with it.
But the future -- that's where his doubts really creep in.
"I think it will die a death for several years and have to be resurrected from the ashes," Dillon said of the current state of professional wrestling.
With a monopoly promotion in the WWE, a lack of places for aspiring wrestlers to learn the craft on a regular basis, and storylines that are fundamentally flawed, "it doesn't bode well fore the future of the wrestling business, in my personal opinion," he said.
Dillon's views, expressed in discussions and a forum at the FAN SLAM! wrestling festival last weekend, come from someone who has the experience to know what works in the profession - and what doesn't.
Entering the ring in 1962, the Trenton, NJ native wrestled and managed around the globe, logging an estimated 3,355 matches and traveling, by his count, more than 1.2 million miles by car.
His last match was in 1989, but he had long since become known as "Manager of Champions;" in particular, standing as the boss of the legendary and villainous Four Horsemen of WCW -- Ric Flair, Tully Blanchard, Arn and
Ole Anderson, and later, Lex Luger.
He has been a referee and agent for regional promotions, and was head of talent relations for the WWF in the early 1990s before returning to finish his career with WCW.
But turning the odometer; holding individual and tag titles in Florida, the Midwest, and elsewhere; or merely acting as a mere front man is no guarantee of knowledge and wrestling savvy.
Dillon, in the opinion of Bobby Heenan, could do much more than pile up miles on dusty west Texas roads during his heyday in the regional Amarillo territory, a favorite stamping ground.
"He was the reason for the Horsemen's success," Heenan said after a FAN SLAM! question-and-answer session. "He was the ringleader. He made it work."
Among Dillon's concerns is that a constant flow of improving talent is the foundation for the long-term success of any wrestling company.
"The problem in professional wrestling is that [WWE owner] Vince McMahon has put all the competition out of business. And so there is no place for young talent to learn their craft," said Dillon, nee Jim Morrison.
Independent promotions are a step in the right direction, "but a young wrestler cannot wrestle three times a month in front of a small crowd and grow to the level you need to," he said. "That's a part that saddens me."
Dillon, now a successful real estate executive with Prudential Realty in Atlanta, speaks without malice and far removed from his blustery wrestling persona.
He makes it a point not to bad mouth anyone associated with the business.
"There have been a lot of people in the business who have been knocked over the years, but they've been people who, in my personal experience, treated me right. So I have always believed in not saying anything negative about someone who treated me right, just because someone else had an axe to grind."
That makes his calm, measured observations about the state of wrestling in 2003 even more consequential.
He believes the so-called "brand extension" of the WWE into RAW and Smackdown rosters will fail in the long run, because of the lack of new, talented wrestlers -- and an overemphasis on the McMahon family involvement in storylines.
"People didn't buy tickets to see me, and I don't think they buy tickets to see the McMahon family," Dillon said.
"With a limitation of the talent you do have, and to split it into two factions I think is a flawed plan, and eventually they're going to have to unite it to survive."
Dillon chalked up at least part of the demise of WCW to the forceful "Type-A" personalities of Eric Bischoff and Vince Russo, who could be very persuasive with high-level company executives who knew little about the industry.
Their "throw dollars at the problem" style and management of WCW contradicted Dillon's long-held belief that "for a general run, if you spend more money than you are going to make, you will not last very long."
Dillon has been content to move on to other opportunities. He enjoys his home of Atlanta and its burgeoning real estate market, he said.
But even the old, cold-hearted J.J. Dillon would have been touched with the reception at the FAN SLAM! festival, he said. "It's just nice to see so many people do appreciate the good old days."

implementations of encoded unitary gates are highly desirable for
fault-tolerant quantum computation. It is known, however, that
transversal gates alone cannot be computationally universal. I will show
that the limitation on universality can be circumvented using only
fault-tolerant error correction, which is already required anyway. This
result applies to ``triorthogonal'' stabilizer codes, which were recently
introduced by Bravyi and Haah for state distillation. I will show that
triothogonal codes admit transversal implementation of the
controlled-controlled-Z gate, and then demonstrate a transversal Hadamard construction
which uses error correction to preserve the codespace. I will also discuss how
to adapt the distillation procedure of Bravyi and Haah to Toffoli gates,
improving on existing Toffoli distillation schemes.

George Borrow
English author
George Henry Borrow (July 5 1803 – July 26 1881) was an eccentric English travel-writer, novelist, memoirist and translator, known especially for his sympathetic portrayal of his friends among the Romany people.
- The author of Amelia, the most singular genius which their island ever produced, whose works it has long been the fashion to abuse in public and to read in secret.
- The Bible in Spain (1843), ch. 1.
- There is a peculiarity in the countenance, as everybody knows, which, though it cannot be described, is sure to betray the Englishman.
- The Bible in Spain, ch. 2.
- Sherry...a silly, sickly compound, the use of which will transform a nation, however bold and warlike by nature, into a race of sketchers, scribblers, and punsters, in fact into what Englishmen are at the present day.
- Wild Wales (1862), ch. 38.
Lavengro (1851)Edit
- There are no countries in the world less known by the British than these selfsame British Islands, or where more strange things are every day occurring.
- Preface
- Smoking has a sedative effect upon the nerves, and enables a man to bear the sorrows of this life (of which every one has his share) not only decently, but dignifiedly.
- Ch. 23
- If you must commit suicide – and there is no knowing to what people may be brought – always contrive to do it as decorously as possible; the decencies, whether of life or of death, should never be lost sight of.
- Ch. 23
- I have always been a friend to hero-worship; it is the only rational one, and has always been in use amongst civilized people.
- Ch. 23
- Translation is at best an echo.
- Ch. 25
- There's night and day, brother, both sweet things; sun, moon, and stars, brother, all sweet things; there's likewise a wind on the heath. Life is very sweet, brother; who would wish to die?
- Ch. 25
- There's the wind on the heath, brother; if I could only feel that, I would gladly live for ever.
- Ch. 25
- He is not deserving of the name of Englishman who speaketh against ale, that is, good ale.
- Ch. 68

In this second vignette we hear about the most excellent warriors. This story occurred quite early in my 5-man tanking career, not much beyond level 30, in Maraudon.
I didn't know the instance and had not been assertive enough in engaging my fellow party members on the matter (post on learner tanks and instance knowledge incoming) and after some confusion when I went one way around a rocky outcrop and the healer the other (and we wiped) our healer and a dps disappeared in a flash. This left myself and two warriors. But not just any two warriors, two most excellent warriors! We requeued and waited… and waited. After a while we decided to forge ahead. I survived through trash via Victory Rush and eating afterwards and after a while we got to the end boss.
We gazed up at the huge weed with its spiky arms and slavering maw. "I don't know," said Dorf, one of my fellow warriors, (I shall call him 'Dorf' for my memory portrays him as such) looking over Razorlash, "there's a lot of hits there." "Let's rotate the taunt," came the suggestion from our colleague. "Alright," I added, "wait until I'm low then you grab him, then Dorf, then I'll blow cooldowns and see if we can't finish him."
And you know what – it was close but we did and we could. I've had many good experiences pugging but this still goes down as one of the best. Three players, finding themselves in adverse circumstances come up with a plan based upon the capacities of their class and then successfully follow through. It was a pretty easy low-level instance but this outcome felt like a great victory. We completed the run and I gave a hearty farewell to my warrior friends – hoping to see them again.
Stay liquid folks,

Fighting Fantasy blogs
Fighting Fantasy role-playing gamebooks were a phenomenon of the eighties, but dwindled in popularity with the rise of video games. Still, retro sometimes comes back into fashion—several of the original gamebooks have been reissued by Wizard Books—and Fighting Fantasy remains popular among a lot of people who grew up in the eighties and fondly remember rolling up SKILL and STAMINA scores.
Myself included, of course. I have the entire collection—some of the books I bought over fifteen years ago, and purist that I am, they're all the original releases. Recently, though, I found a couple of bloggers who are playing through the books and describing the experience, including the incongruities of the stories, the amazing number (and type) of meals you have to eat and every time you die.
The latter is one of my favorite things about the series, of course. The more sophisticated the books became, the more elaborate the deaths (or non-victory adventure endings, i.e. more or less the same thing).
Dan of Fighting Dantasy tackles every book in the series. The moment I read this ending to his City of Thieves adventure I knew I would enjoy his blog.
I had no food either, having traded it all for a silver arrow.
So when a boy came up to me offering to sell me either plums or apples, I was ecstatic. He recommended the plums, and knowing this town pretty well by now I chose the apples, and they were a bit off, doing a single point of stamina damage. Problem: I only had one point left.
I was killed by an apple marginally past its use-by-date.
Then there's Sword of the Samurai:
Next thing we know, we meet a forty-foot centipede, which I assume must've been common in medieval Japan...? It bit off Moichi's arm, and no amount of food was going to fix that, so I felt justified (but not exactly honourable) in not giving him any. If he needed food that badly, he should have bought his own.
The other blog is Turn to 400, which is much more detailed and snarky.
Somebody needs to let these guys know that when it comes to last words, pithiness is what gets you over. You shouldn't be glancing at your wrist-watch during a guy's dying words. You shouldn't start wondering what might be for dinner. You shouldn't have to interrupt to clarify whether the man is, in fact, actually dying at all, or whether there might still be enough time to drag him down off the mountain or invent all of modern medicine.
I can't wait for the author to get to my favorite book, House of Hell.
You can also check out back-issues of the Fighting Fantazine here - they've got mini-adventures, interviews with authors and artists, humor columns and much more. Enjoy (and don't drink the white wine)!

I had forgotten about those books. I had friends in the eighties who were very devoted to them. Thanks for the reminder. It's cool that people are preserving the tradition.

And not just preserving the tradition but updating it... from what I hear, there are FF e-books and apps as well. Ah, technology. Sometimes we use it for good.
I read The Hobbit when I was six or seven, but if not for FF I don't think I would have fallen in love with the genre to this extent. FF is just so much more vivid and playful.
It also helps that the books don't have the complexity of, say, D&D. Or evem Blood Sword - I love that series too, but I have to stop and think about the fight rules rather than just jotting a few figures down on the back of an envelope and playing along.

I remember those books through my sister. She used to love them. I remember reading one...Phantom of the...something or other. Had a green background with a red creature on the cover. I browsed through it as I wasn't that big on reading at the time...

Phantoms of Fear, that's the book. I only know this because Fighting Dantasy covered it back in August 2008 lol...

Great links and funny, funny witness to some great endings in role-play.
There used to be some really funny "last lines of the RPG player before he dies" and I forget where. I miss this kind of stuff!
- February 23, 2012 at 2:56 PM
- Marian Perera said...
DRC - Phantoms of Fear is one of the weirder ones, IMO, and the cover reflects that. It's definitely not the best introduction to the series. :)
Diane - oh, I wish I could find this website that collected unforgettable moments in RPGs. The best was when the players (unknown to them, of course), picked up this lump of what looked like valuable ore but which was highly radioactive. Apparently they didn't realize what was going on even after their hair started falling out.

Never heard of them and I thought I seen them all. Of course right now my group is using system based on the Dragon Age video game RPG, so I guess it comes full circle. Also D&D pushed the evolution of video game RPGs through the Gold Box collection and now it is suffering because of it.
- February 28, 2012 at 10:42 PM
- Marian Perera said...
Rafael - I like collecting the obscure stuff. :) Like the "Blood Sword" and "Way of the Tiger" role-playing gamebooks, which are probably even less well known.
And when I started buying these, it was either alibris or eBay. Now there are a lot more options for collectors.

Jeannette Maw and I will be talking about the grand square, AKA the grand cross, the current astro in the night sky. This cross is formed by two oppositions and four squares. In Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) it is a dynamic activation that can be leveraged for authentic growth and change.
To brush up on what transits are and how to spot them in your chart, here are two short tutorials, Transits part 1 and part 2.
If we aren't sure what we're meant to 'do' at this time, this powerful transit can help us pinpoint where we are 'up' for transformation, balancing and alignment. What houses are activated in your chart? What planets?
Tune in and learn more about where this energy is activating your life. Bring your charts, and make sure they are up on the GVA forum with the link handy, so all can see. To do so, become an Open Member (it's free) and post your chart in the Gallery. Tutorials here on how to.

Last week, Gucci announced Blake Lively as the new face of its upcoming Gucci Premiere fragrance, and now the ad has been released.
Photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott captured Lively for the Old Hollywood-inspired image, and the accompanying television commercial, yet to be released, has Lively stepping not far out of real life—she plays a leading lady getting ready for a big premiere (Lively herself wore Gucci to the New York premiere of her new movie Savages last night.). The short film was directed by Drive's Nicolas Winding Refn and will premiere at the Venice Film Festival on September 1.

Originally known as Pittsburgh Equitable Meter and Manufacturing Company, which was created in 1927 with the merger of two meter companies. They relocated to Brooklyn in 1941. About the same time, they purchased the Crescent Machine Co. Also in 1945, Rockwell purchased Delta Manufacturing Co., and made it its Delta Power Tool Division. Shortly thereafter, Delta tools were labeled "Delta Rockwell".
After that busy 1945 year, Rockwell made a series of product and company acquisitions:
In 1973, Rockwell Manufacturing Co. merged with North American Rockwell to become Rockwell International Corp. In 1981, the Porter-Cable line was sold to Pentair Inc. of St. Paul, MN. On April 12, 1984, the remaining machinery and tool operations were also sold to Pentair, which renamed it Delta International Machinery Corp.
If you are looking for parts, service, or manuals for your Rockwell woodworking machine, look also in the entry for Delta Manufacturing Co.

Glenlossie 17 Year Old 1997 vintage Speyside single malt Scotch whiskey. Matured in a bourbon cask #7066 bottled 2015 by The Vintage Malt Whiskey Co. for the Cooper's Choice series. 300 bottles.
Glenlossie Distillery
Glenlossie Single Malt Whiskey
Glenlossie Distillery was established to the west of Fogwatt in Scotland's Speyside whiskey region by John Duff in 1876. A private rail line opened in 1896 to connect Glenlossie with two neighbouring distilleries which enabled efficient movement of goods between distilleries and gave Glenlossie access to the Morayshire Railway and hence speedy connections with the wider world. This distillery's six stills produce a light malt whiskey which is used primarily in the production of a range of Diagio's blends. Whilst very few official bottling have been released Glenlosy whiskey is available from a number of independent bottlers including Signatory and the Connoisseurs Choice range.

OMW I know all these places! It's a shame I went up to the Sunshine Coast instead of the other way today.
Good find, LoveRocked! They really didn't leave much out of that story, did they?
I read wiki of Pekin Express that saying "during filming, Stéphane Rotenberg was the victim of a car accident in the Philippines but this has not affected the continuation of the adventure." that's true?
The host of Pékin Express, Stéphane Rotenberg, is injured during the filming of the race. He was the victim of a side car accident and he got a trausma head, leg bruise and wounds on her face. He is safe and the filming is stopping. Some informations here: http://www.purepeople.com/article/stephane-rotenberg-victime-d-un-accident-de-la-route-dans-pekin-express_a94840/1
Quote from: LoveRocked on February 05, 2012, 04:35:46 AMI read wiki of Pekin Express that saying "during filming, Stéphane Rotenberg was the victim of a car accident in the Philippines but this has not affected the continuation of the adventure." that's true?Yes, there is a link to a story (in French) about the accident on Page 1 of this thread. After looking at the story, I find 2 more follow up stories as well. Apparently it was scary, but not a serious accident. I'll post them with a Google translation. Anyone that know French, feel free to correct the Google translation.http://www.purepeople.com/article/stephane-rotenberg-victime-d-un-accident-de-la-route-dans-pekin-express_a94840/1Currently filming the seventh season of Peking Express in the Philippines, Stéphane Rotenberg was a victim, as revealed in the blog jeanmarcmorandini.com, a car accident .Indeed, the sympathetic and attractive program host adventure M6 found himself before the cameras, involved in a collision on the road while he was on board a sidecar. Beijing Express animator since 2006, Stéphane Rotenberg is also a guide to candidates. A mission that is apparently not safe. Stéphane Rotenberg suffer head trauma, bruised legs and face wounds. The shooting was of course immediately interrupted, the time to care for the presenter of the game, whose days are not in danger.Nothing can stop it! Real beating, Stephane wanted to resume filming of the show this morning. Obviously, Stephen would be perfectly capable of winning a season of Peking Express! Filming has resumed normally, and the presenter will meet as scheduled journalists midweek press conference for the show.Note that there will also soon be the Stéphane beautiful, alone, in command of the third season Top Chef . http://www.purepeople.com/article/stephane-rotenberg-percute-par-une-voiture-les-equipes-ont-eu-tres-peur_a94908/1We now know more about the accident to local sidecar with Stéphane Rotenberg , director of race Peking Express , suffered on the set of the show in the Philippines. The game's producer of M6 , Guillaume Thierry, interviewed by the TV Mag site, has said more about what really happened.The producer says this: "At one point, the bike is packed and Stéphane has lost control. A car came the hit." Fortunately, more fear than harm to the host, suffered a head injury. It must be said that the incident seemed very impressive (the website of TV Mag reveals the picture of the sidecar . "When I saw Stephane happen, I was very scared. He was immediately supported by our medical and emergency services. A few stitches later, everything is back to normal, "the producer.Thierry Guillaume also reaffirms that the facilitator, in command of 30 January Top Chef 3 , is well and that the accident had no consequences on the set: "This accident did not change our schedule. Stéphane goes well. He wears a cap just to hide her bandages. It even joked with the candidates. "Real fighter and stuntman, Stéphane Rotenberg began filming the show on January 11 in difficult weather conditions in South Korea. Filming continues in the Philippines.Will we see the accident on the screen? It is not even sure he was well filmed, as revealed by Thierry Moreau (Tele 7 Jours) on his Twitter. http://www.purepeople.com/article/accident-de-stephane-rotenberg-une-casquette-pour-masquer-de-petites-cicatrices_a95016/1A few days ago, Stéphane Rotenberg was an accident of local sidecar on the set of the seventh season of Peking Express , adventure program to success M6 , the Philippines. More fear than harm. While he was recently told TV Mag , This time is for our colleagues from the site of Tele 7 Jours that the sympathetic Stephane returns to his accident and its consequences.Five days after the incident, the moderator, who will return soon to head Top Chef , explains: "I was motoring journalist in the past and I had some crashes. There I took control of a sidecar for a sequence of shooting without the candidates. But we were on a road a little crowded and I was struck by a vehicle. A banal traffic accident without major consequences. I was supported and cared for by a doctor Beijing Express, and the race could leave a few hours later. I just wearing a hat to hide the small scars and I walk with a limp ... it embarrasses me more than anything else. What surprised me is how people react. I received lots of SMS and phone calls from people worried. But everyone can rest assured, these are just sores ... "It is true that many people who expressed concern for the journalist. We the Original! Smiling and talented, Stéphane has a real goodwill. Still on the flanks of the volcano Pinatubo in the Philippines, Stephane displays a few scratches on the face and box of the right leg, but more is needed to stop it. Indeed, it has already resumed filming this season, which will be full of surprises - the facilitators of the M6 will come and play "ball"! - By stifling heat of not less than 35 ° C.http://tvmag.lefigaro.fr/programme-tv/article/people/67314/exclu-j-ai-eu-tres-peur-pour-rotenberg.htmlExcluded! "I was very afraid for Rotenberg"Guillaume Thierry, the producer of Peking Express, said the accident Shooting Facilitator "When I saw Stephane happen, I was very scared, recalls Thierry Guillaume, the producer of Peking Express .

Twins designated hitter Jim Thome was claimed on waivers by the Cleveland Indians, while outfielder Jason Kubel was claimed by the Chicago White Sox, according to major-league sources.
The claims do not mean that either player will change teams. The Twins can trade Thome and/or Kubel. They also can keep one or both or allow one or both to leave on a claim.
Thome, who holds a full no-trade clause, and can reject any deal. He prefers the Phillies to the Indians, one source said, but it's doubtful he could circumvent the waiver process to land with Philadelphia.
Kubel, meanwhile, is unlikely to be traded, sources said. The Twins likely would offer him arbitration in an attempt to re-sign him, and would want the equivalent of at least a high draft pick in return.
I give it 99.999% odds this is absolutely nothing. The Twinkies aren't trading one of their players to us and Kenny won't offer them anything in return. The solution is in AAA-Charlote, it won't cost anything and goes by the name of Dayan Viciedo.
BTW, here's J.J's take on the situation.
UPDATE: It was the Indians and not the Sox the team that claimed Kubel tweets Ken Rosenthal.
