I have a certain snippet of content that I would only like to be displayed when a user clicks a certain link.
After clicking, a "floating window" would then appear in the center of the current browser, above the rest of the page. This window should be able to contain HTML code.
I've seen similar things where the container follows the mouse, but I really don't need that...
I was supposing you'd put the content in a DIV tag, then made it visible on click, but in recent experiments, it displaces the underlying layout.
Do I need absolute positioning? Do I need to mess with the z-index?
Any help would be appreciated.

US increases funding to combat influenza and emerging disease threats
Continued partnership will strengthen countries' preparedness, surveillance and response
29 October 2012, Rome - FAO's commitment to fight emerging disease threats in "hotspot" regions worldwide is getting a boost with new funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the UN agency said today.
The funding, totalling more than $20 million, will support the ongoing US-FAO partnership against H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) and a widening focus on potential emerging pandemic threats.
The continuing threat of bird flu
The US assistance will help strengthen preparedness and response to HPAI in Southeast Asia and bolster laboratory and surveillance capacities in hotspot areas.
The majority of the funding will support activities in Bangladesh, China, Indonesia and Viet Nam, which continue to experience outbreaks of H5N1 HPAI in poultry as well as cases in humans, some fatal.
Funding will also go to regional coordination to combat avian influenza and to support surveillance and prevention in Cambodia, Lao PDR, Nepal and Myanmar, which are threatened by the disease's continuing persistence in neighbouring countries.
These countries continue to have sporadic outbreaks, indicating the H5N1 virus continues to circulate in poultry and remains a threat to poultry production, human health and the livelihoods of millions of vulnerable farmers who depend on poultry raising for their basic food needs and a means of making a living.
"The US Government has been key in generating international support to combat avian influenza and to reduce the chances for a human pandemic by assisting FAO and others to address the threat in animals before it spills over into humans. Such support for basic prevention measures is rare, yet most sensible and cost effective," said FAO Chief Veterinary Officer Juan Lubroth.
"USAID is pleased to continue its collaboration with FAO," said Dennis Carroll, Director of USAID's Avian Influenza and Other Emerging Threats Unit.
"FAO has proven to be a highly effective and innovative leader in responding to the threat posed by emerging zoonotic diseases. As a prime mover in the promotion of One Health FAO continues to be instrumental in demonstrating the central importance of collaborative partnerships across the sectoral domains of environment, animal health and human health. Through the partnership between USAID and FAO we look forward to being able to continue to provide a broad range of technical, operational and commodity support to those countries most vulnerable to the threat of zoonotic diseases," he said.
Emerging pandemic threats
Thanks in large part to the USAID-FAO partnership, since avian influenza grew to proportions of a global crisis between 2004 and 2006, the scientific community has gained a deeper understanding of what drives disease emergence and thus the measures to take to prevent disease.
Due to the speed with which animal-origin pathogens such as H5N1, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2002-2003 and the H1N1 influenza pandemic in 2009, caused by a virus that had combined elements of avian, swine and human origin, USAID launched its "Emerging Pandemic Threats (EPT) programme.
Through EPT's "Identify" component, support is funnelled to countries to strengthen the capacities of national and regional laboratory networks to diagnose and characterize different types of influenza virus threats.
This continues to be especially important in Southeast Asia, where new virus strains continue to emerge, which can eventually develop into a direct threat for human health and perpetuate poultry losses. In addition, as viruses adapt, poultry vaccines against H5N1 can lose their effectiveness, leaving domestic poultry vulnerable to disease.
Beyond bird flu
Sheer population numbers and population density - animal and human - are clear risk factors for influenza virus emergence. And Southeast Asia is considered a 'hotspot' region given already high population numbers and the rates of population expansion - of people and animals living in ever closer contact.
China alone is home to half the world's pigs, about a quarter of its chickens, 70 percent of all ducks and 90 percent of the globe's geese. Close contact among them all provides viruses with many hosts and the opportunity to jump species, which in turn can lead to virus adaptations and eventually an influenza virus with pandemic potential. EPT "Plus" monitors the animals that have the closest contacts with humans - poultry and pigs especially - to catch pathogens emerging from the animal world before they can affect humans.
In addition, the mixing of wildlife with domestic animals is of particular concern, and a common practice in scavenging and small-scale systems of animal production. Moreover, growing populations with more wealth are driving demand for animal-based products and meat, so animal farming is intensifying and expanding into pristine ecosystems.
The continuing partnership with USAID will include funding for FAO's field work on wildlife to better understand the increasing intermingling of wild animals with livestock and humans.
Two out of three emerging infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic, or have their origins in animals. Of those zoonotic diseases, 75 percent come from wildlife.
Rapid response
With the support of USAID and the US Department of Agriculture, FAO has established a Crisis Management Centre for Animal Health, an emergency response unit with the capacity to rapidly mobilize and deploy teams of veterinary and other experts anywhere in the world to advise governments on emergency control measures, including prevention and contingency plans.
Now in its seventh year of operation, the CMC-AH has fielded 60 missions, assisting 40 countries with outbreaks of H5N1 avian influenza as well as other high impact animal diseases, including H1N1 influenza, peste des petits ruminants, Ebola Reston virus, rabies, foot-and-mouth disease, African swine fever, Rift Valley fever, Newcastle disease and more, including aquatic animal diseases.
'One Health' approach
These activities are part of a broader effort by FAO and its partners, including the World Health Organization and the World Organisation for Animal Health, to address zoonotic and other high impact diseases by addressing complex health threats through a holistic and multi-disciplinary lens.
Total US commitments to FAO's activities in the fight against HPAI and other zoonotic diseases over the past seven years have totaled around $213 million.

The Maharaja rules state that I can take my two actions any way I like. I can even sub-divide the actions. So for example, given the "build palace and house" action, I could build a palace in one city, move my architect to the next city, and then build the house of that same action in the new city.
So far so good.
The question I have is: how many times can I make moves during my turn? Only once? More than once? For example: after taking one action, moving, and taking part of my second action - can I then move a second time to another city and take the remainder of my second action? If yes, then I could perhaps have visited as many as four cities in one turn (based on two actions, with each action sub-divided).
Anyone know?

By Karta Purkh Singh Khalsa, Oregon, USA
Happiness is truly your birthright. You were born to be happy but of course, sometimes life interferes while you're making plans. Keeping your physical, mental, and spiritual energies balanced is the way to keep the good times rolling. Keeping the tattvas balanced creates lifelong health, and along with that, happiness.
A good place to start is with the tastes of the foods and herbs you consume. The yogic word for taste, rasa, has many meanings, and the interrelated nature of those definitions helps us to connect with the importance of taste. Rasa means "essence." In Ayurveda, taste is one of the key factors in understanding the qualities of a food or herb. In addition, rasa can mean "appreciation," "artistic delight," or a "musical note."
The taste of our food or herbal medicine stimulates the nerves, the mind, and the senses—it makes us lively. Through stimulating the gastric nerves, taste enhances digestion. And taste directly affects our nervous system through the prana, the life force.
Sweet, Sour, and Salty Tastes
Yoga refers to three main tastes that keep us happy, nourished, and fulfilled: sweet, sour, and salty. Eating foods with sweet rasa increases the body's bulk and physical stamina. Most long-term nourishing tonics are sweet, and research is revealing that many immune-stimulant tonics have in common a certain kind of healing carbohydrate, which has a sweet taste. Sweet foods are calming for the brain. They are also useful in easing bowel movements.
All grains and nuts are predominantly sweet. Shatavari, the root of an Asian asparagus plant, and the premier yogic herb for women, is a sweet herb that is also used for kidney and lung problems. Licorice is another classic sweet herb and it balances emotions.
Chrysanthemum flower is a sweet herb that can keep you happy. Of course we think of this plant as a pleasant decorative flower, but it also has some nice medicinal properties. Chrysanthemum flower is a cooling remedy with an affinity for the head, so it cools the eyes and helps vision. Chrysanthemum is very cooling to the mind, as well. It helps to surrender the egoistic will and also soothes anger. Chrysanthemum tastes good as a tea, so drink up, cool your anger, and stay happy.
Foods with a sour taste produce their action through organic acids and cleanse the body of toxins and promote digestion. Acidic foods tend to be high in vitamin content, such as vitamin C in lemons. Citrus peels are, in fact, used as herbs to promote digestion and stimulate appetite. Rose hips are sour therapy, contain vitamin C, and are used for the respiratory tract.
Salty foods contain mineral compounds that help the body retain fluids and improve digestion and bowel action. They add savor to food and activate the flow of saliva and gastric juices. Salty foods and herbs like kelp act to control gas, and are given for coughs. Since salty taste helps keep our tissue moist, it is very salubrious for the nervous system, the main system we want to stay in balance.
Gokshura Seed
Gokshura seed is a well known Ayurvedic herb that is a standout for building sexual energy. Gokshura is highly esteemed as a rejuvenative remedy that balances heat and dryness in the body. Gokshura is a common ingredient in aphrodisiac formulas. One contemporary product combines it with 22 other multipurpose herbs, many of which actually are herbs with targeted aphrodisiac effects, including saffron, shankpushpi, ashwaganda, and nutmeg. Gokshura also promotes mental clarity, and in fact, I've found it to have exceptional clinical effect in depression. It may be taken with ashwaganda as a tonic in nervous disorders.
To this set of happiness herbs, we could add guduchi, an exceptional remedy for the brain. Yogi Bhajan was fond of guduchi and often recommended it. This remedy is one of the best herbs for clearing the srotas (channels). It is a potent yet well tolerated detoxifier that is found in many Ayurvedic formulas. Because of this, it is included in formulas to assist the delivery of herbs to the tissues. Guduchi aids all aspects of healthy metabolism and particularly clears the srotas in the brain, facilitating mental activity. It supports proper communication and coordination between all the various cells and their many related functions, promoting better overall health.
However you get there, true happiness comes from constant progress on your spiritual journey. And anything that can support you in your destiny must be welcome. Balance is the key. Getting to balance may be a bit of a project, but remember, happiness is your birthright.
Karta Purkh Singh Khalsa, Yogaraj, D.N.-C., R.H., studied Ayurveda with Yogi Bhajan for over 30 years. He lives in Eugene, Oregon, where he serves as Senior Research Scientist and Chief Medical Formulator for Yogi Tea. His recent book is The Way of Ayurvedic Herbs.

Owner Rick Monroy
Vehicle '81 Buick Regal
Car club Spirit
2 pumps 10 batteries Fully reinforced frame
During a recent road trip to Phoenix, AZ., we were given the red carpet treatment as all of the top hoppers in the area came out to play. After seeing several cars, this custom painted Regal stood out and caught our attention. As we saw it complete a full bumper stand, we knew we had to show it to you guys in our Back Bumper section.
Rick has owned several Lowriders in the past and when he got the chance to purchase this classic G- Body, he did so without hesitation. Thanks to his past experience, Rick knew that his buddy Frank Castillo would be able to take on the challenge of pushing this Buick to the limit. Frank went to work and fully wrapped and modified the suspension to allow this car to easily hit in the sixties, while still being able to cleanly cruise the Boulevards of Phoenix.
With his Spirit Car Club as a big influence, Rick had the car painted by Hector, of Grand Prix, who sprayed the car in a Pearl Yellow finish. The HOK finish was then dressed up with graphics courtesy of Alex from Modern Arte. With subtle graphics, Rick counted on Chavo to add some classy pinstripping to finish off the exterior. With the exterior complete, Rick called on Phoenix resident, Felipe, to stitch up a beautiful interior.
Rick's 14-inch wires help the Regal to gain some leverage over the competition, as every inch counts when hopping in the streets. Since completing this Regal, the car has survived the best of back bumper battles on the streets of Phoenix, and is now ready to nose up with any of the single-pump competition at the shows.
If you have a hydraulics setup that hits back bumper or is making you "go for broke," e-mail some images along with basic information to: email@example.com.

A&M Reaping Benefits from 12thMAN License Plate Bids
One license plate captures it, but how do you explain it. Bids in the MyPlates.com 12THMAN Auction are at $35,000 with less than two days of bidding to go!
Who better than a motivated bidder to explain how a college football tradition can mean so much to so many people:
"The 12THMAN tradition is bigger than I can describe. To be a part of the tradition is a life-altering event that you carry with you forever. You are united with a group of people promoting traditions that have survived over time. Being able to have the 12THMAN plate would be like being named the ultimate 12THMAN. I would be very proud to be a part of the special honor presentation as the 12THMAN winner, especially at the Alabama game to show my pride in the 12THMAN Tradition. Our family is proud to be AGGIES and part of the 12THMAN." -Joe Adams, Katy
The auction is online only, and bidding ends at noon Thursday, September 12– two days prior to the Aggies' SEC showdown with defending national champion Alabama at Kyle Field. That's when, as a special honor, A&M will present the 12THMAN license plate to the My Plates auction winner in front of 88,000 fans.
Proceeds from the MyPlates.com 12THMAN Auction benefit Texas A&M University and the General Revenue Fund of Texas.
This could be the only time ever that the plate is available because the winner of the MyPlates.com 12THMAN Auction wins this plate for a 10-year term, with first dibs on renewing the plate after that. The winner also has full rights to transfer or sell the plate to someone else.
Since November 2009, Texans have purchased more than 160,000 My Plates, putting more than $18.8M in the general revenue fund, which helps pay for services for all Texans. Texas A&M-related proceeds from My Plates have supported championship opportunities for Aggie student-athletes, both in the classroom and in competition, as well as funding for the Corps of Cadets and the Bonfire Memorial.
Texas A&M University Athletics is committed to "Building Champions" through academic achievement, athletic excellence and national recognition of student-athletes, teams and programs. Texas A&M's almost 650 student-athletes compete at the NCAA Division 1-A level in 20 varsity sports. The university officially became a member of the storied Southeastern Conference on July 1, 2012.
Opened in 1876 as Texas' first public institution of higher learning, Texas A&M University is a research-intensive flagship university with more than 50,000 students — including 10,000 graduate students — studying in more than 120 undergraduate and 240 graduate degree programs in ten colleges. www.aggieathletics.com
My Plates designs and markets new specialty license plates as a vendor for the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles. Texans have bought more than 160,000 My Plates since November 2009, putting more than $18.8M in the state general revenue fund. My Plates' goal is to create a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship designed to maximize revenues for the state through the sale of My Plates specialty plates. My Plates is a joint venture of Etech, Inc. of Nacogdoches (www.etechinc.com) and Pinnacle Technical Resources of Dallas (www.pinnacle1.com), www.myplates.com.
The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) is charged with overseeing the state's motor vehicle services that provide consumer protection, assist motor vehicle-related businesses and raise revenue for the state.
For every $1 it spends, the TxDMV returns $10 to build and maintain highways, roads and bridges and provide needed services to Texans. Each year the agency registers more than 22 million vehicles; regulates vehicle dealers; credentials buses and big trucks for intrastate and interstate commerce; issues oversize and overweight permits; and awards grants to law enforcement agencies to reduce vehicle burglaries and thefts.

Central Connecticut softball sophomore Kat Malcolm earned NEC Co-Player of the Week for the second time this season after another undefeated week for the Blue Devils, the league announced Monday.
Malcolm was an integral part of the Blue Devils' 4-0 weekend. She scored six runs and drove in eight RBI in 14 at bats. Malcolm registered six hits in 14 at bats on the week including three home runs.
She smacked a three-run homer against Sacred Heart on Saturday and followed it up with an additional three-run homer in game one of the Saint Francis doubleheader on Sunday.
She kicked off game two against SFPA with a double and followed it up with a solo home run. Malcolm batted .429 on the week and yielded a perfect fielding percentage.
Malcolm has hit seven home runs so far this season, just three away from the CCSU single-season record of 10 achieved by senior Kelsey Barlow in 2010 and classmate Nicole Springer in 2012. She is also 6-for-6 in stolen base attempts on the season and is ranked 40th in the nation in runs per game.
Malcolm shares her honor this week with junior Aubrey Mable of Bryant.
The Blue Devils (20-9, 10-0 NEC) will continue conference play this Saturday, April 13, at Mount St. Mary's (10-22, 2-8 NEC). The first game of the doubleheader is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m.

NOTE: The library staff ceased updating and filing cards in 2005. Please consult the LION internet catalog for cataloging post 2005.
The library's card catalog, is a divided catalog. Cards are grouped into two main divisions, one set of card drawers contains only author and title cards, patrons with knowledge of a specific title or author should first look in this portion of the catalog to confirm that the library holds a given title and its shelving location. The second part of the catalog contains subject cards, the library's cataloging system uses Library of Congress subject headings.
Volumes listing all authorized Library of Congress subject headings are shelved adjacent to the catalog. Library patrons looking for publications on any given topic should first consult the subject card portion of the card catalog. The library uses an internally developed call number or classification system, it does not use LC call numbers or Dewey call numbers. A call number generally consists of four lines the first line indicates the holding library, or area of the library where the publication is shelved.
If the Supreme Court Library, Queens County does not hold the desired material, the attorney or library user should see a reference librarian about obtaining the material through interlibrary loan.
If another law library in the metropolitan area has the desired material and we do not, generally it can be arranged to provide a pass which will allow the attorney to use the material there. Should the need for access to another law library arise, the attorney should consult with a law librarian and obtain a "green letter".
Copies of all PJI civil jury instructions, current issues of the NY Jury Verdict Reporter, US Law Week, frequently consulted evidence treatises, e.g., Richardson/Prince; Fisch and daily issues of the New York Law Journal are available at the reserve desk, (circulation desk). Many frequently used treatises and hornbooks are shelved in the Reserve area. When requesting treatises or monographs on reserve, please obtain the call number from the catalog. Periodicals should be requested by volume, title, and issue or page number.
Attention Judges: Office of Court Administration Judicial Seminar video tapes and seminar course books are available at the reserve desk. A list of available videos is kept at the Reserve desk. Currently, seminar tapes are kept for two years.

In this small Texas town, people pitch in to help out following the deadly blast at a local fertilizer plant.
I learned the news about the explosion in West, Texas, the way you seem to learn everything these days - on Twitter, and then Facebook. I was actually in the middle of telling someone about West. It's where I grew up and lived until I was 20.
When I saw the first tweet, I fell into the same trap I've been dealing with forever. I read it as "West Texas" and not "West Comma Texas." I thought the terrifying image I saw was from somewhere in El Paso and not the fertilizer plant that I saw from my front yard every day I was there.
Then Facebook confirmed my mistake. Social media can be a curse to productivity and real-life connectivity on most days. But on a day like April 17, 2013, it was 100 percent crucial. I was able to see how my friends back home were doing, that they were OK, that they and their families were alive.
Erin Trieb / for NBC News
Volunteer Sarah Potter Davison, far right, of Visiting Angels Living Assistance Services makes burgers on April 18 at the West Community Center after the fertilizer plant blast in West, Texas.
Everyone pretty much knows everyone else in West. The town is tiny - around 2,500 people, but it feels like fewer - and its roots are long and strong.
Most people have Czech surnames. (My mother's maiden name is Sulak, pronounced "SHOE-lock.") It's the kind of place not many leave, and those who do often come back. My friend Mike Lednicky did that not long ago, to give his kids the same childhood he had experienced.
It's the kind of place where people not only don't lock their doors all the time, but sometimes leave the keys in the ignition of their truck. It has a 'To Kill a Mockingbird'-style town square and storefronts that haven't really changed in decades. If you were shooting a 1955 period piece, you could do it in West and it would take minimal effort to make it look the part. The houses spreading out north and south of there are solid nuclear family homes. Nothing extravagant or notable. They have nice-sized yards and kids playing in them.
Not everyone lives next door to each other, but they are all neighbors.
The fertilizer plant was about 100 yards from my old house - which may or may not still be standing. My parents, who left West for Waco a few years ago, still don't know. They won't let anyone close enough.
Helping victims of the huge explosion in the small Texas town of West brings back hard memories for a veteran Air Force aeromedical evacuation nurse with PTSD.
I could see that plant, and smell it, every day I was there. I played basketball in the park across the railroad tracks from it.
The fertilizer plant is not the No. 1 job source in West. I don't know if anything is. Maybe the school district. It's not a factory town, is what I'm saying. People have jobs. Some are in West, some are in Waco.
The school that was partially destroyed, and may be a lost cause, was my middle school.
I had a fight with a kid in the apartment building that was demolished; we later became friends and he showed me his uncle's collection of throwing stars. The apartments were sort of an eyesore. It feels bad saying it now, but it's true. They were rundown when I lived there, and never got any better. Maybe a paint job here and there. And so the people who lived there were undoubtedly among the poorest in town, which always seems to be the way in these situations.
My great-grandmother lived out her last days in the nursing home behind that apartment building. The head of emergency services, Dr. George Smith, was my doctor. My friend Mike's parents' house is gone. A lot of houses are gone. The explosion was the equivalent of a 2.1 earthquake, and it spit fire.
It's not a huge stretch to say that everyone in Texas knows about West, Texas. Or, at the very least, they know about Czech Stop, the bakery/gas station/convenience store located just off Interstate 35 between Dallas and Austin. They know to stop and order a box of kolaches, the sometimes sweet, sometimes savory, and always delicious Czech pastries. If West is the unofficial Kolache Capitol of Texas, Czech Stop - to be fair, not even the best bakery in town - is its statehouse.
Erin Trieb / for NBC News
From left, Natalie, Callum, 2, Cohen, 4, and Chris Ball, pick out kolaches at the famous "Czech Stop" kolache bakery and gas station on April 18 on Interstate 35 in West, Texas. "Every time we drive through here we stop here and get kolaches, either on the way here or on the way back… we always stop here," said Natalie Ball.
Willie Nelson grew up a few miles down 35, in Abbott. He had his first paying gig in West at the Nite Owl bar, a short walk from the piece of property off the highway where my mom's parents and her grandmother used to live, and where my uncle John still does. It may sound strange, since West has never had more than 3,000 residents, but for places like Abbott - and Penelope, Tours, Leroy, Tokio, Ross, and a handful of other pinpricks on the map - West is the big city. Until a few years ago, West had only one stoplight, and it was a flashing red.
West is in my bones, no matter what. My mother's paternal grandparents were among the Czech immigrants who moved there around the turn on the century. Her father Ben and uncle Tony spoke Czech like natives. (When Tony went to Prague in the 1980s, everyone assumed he was a local.) Ben's wife Lee helped start Westfest, the popular Czech heritage festival that happens every Labor Day weekend, and my parents and aunt and uncle had a booth there for a number of years, selling beer bread sandwiches. That's how we paid for vacations.
My parents moved back after college and finally left for Waco a few years ago after my dad retired. He taught fifth grade until he became an administrator, working as an elementary and junior high principal before serving as the district's superintendent for more than a decade. In a town the size of West, he was often the second call, after the sheriff, whenever something bad happened.
He was my first call when I found out. Though they live in Waco, my parents still are tight with most people in West. They heard stories from the people they knew on our old street.
Erin Trieb / for NBC News
From left, Damian Eismann, Brianna Ortiz, Raven Ortiz and Marina Castro eat snacks handed out by the Red Cross while taking a break from boarding up houses and broken windows with plywood on April 18 while volunteering for CenTex in West, Texas. They are from the Dallas-Fort Worth area and came to help out because they have relatives in West.
Windows blown out and walls tumbled down. Houses completely flattened. He worried over the high school that he'd helped get built - across a pasture from the fertilizer plant - his only legacy to the town he lived most of his adult life in.
We just talked again a moment ago. We talked about the names of the confirmed dead. I knew them all in one way or another: a school board member who served when my dad was the superintendent, the brother of one a classmate of my sister, the son of a neighbor. They were all volunteer firemen.
West means a lot to me, maybe more than I realized. And it means at least a little bit to so many others. That was the one heartening thing about last night. My phone wouldn't stop buzzing, with texts and tweets of support from people who knew my history and knew West from their road trips.
I stopped in West on the way home from Austin a few weeks ago. My friend Bob wanted - big surprise - kolaches. The last time I was really there was in September, for my high school reunion. I took a long look around my old neighborhood, in the shadow of that fertilizer plant. I'm glad I did, because it's mostly gone now, and whatever's left will never be the same.

Sunday October 21, 2007
Funny how in just over a year the shoe is on the other foot! Last year about this same time the Broncos came to town and beat the Steelers and all but eliminated them from the playoffs. Granted had the Steelers won any of their other games they could have made it but this one was pivital. This time around the Steelers travel to Mile High and with a win can put a serious damper on any playoff hopes Denver might have.
These two teams practically mirror one another on the offensive side of the ball. They have QB's that are asked to manage a game to let the running game do its thing. The only difference though is when Big Ben is asked to make something happen he can usually deliver where Cutler is more prone to making a mistake. Granted Cutler has more yards than Ben, but Cutler has been playing from behind a lot more and trying to make games look somewhat respectable. Cutler has 4 TD's with 6 INT's, Ben on the other hand has 9 TD's with only 3 picks. The real difference maker is what these guys can do when they are pressured. Ben has been sacked 11 times but could have easily been sacked a lot more, but he seems to find an escape hatch to elude the rush and turn the play into something positive! Looking at the Broncos Steelers offensive matchup the advantage would have to go to the Steelers with the QB's being the differnece.
Now on the defensive side of the ball the Bronco's have been suspect. They have an average D that has given up a crap load of points and give up a lot of yards on the ground. This is the perfect matchup for the Steelers because they have one of the top rushers in the league with FWP, so they can unleash him and have the Broncos attempt to stop him. The Steelers D... well what else can you really say about them? The Steelers Defense is just flat out awesome! They are ranked #1 in the league for total D, points given up and total yards allowed. As long as the #1 D in the league shows up it will be a long night for the Broncos.
Join us this Sunday here in the gameday thread as we talk about the game and cheer our Steelers to a victory!!!!

Behind the Dictionary
Lexicographers Talk About Language
Look it Up! A Dictionary by Any Other Name...
News recently broke about words like chillax and vuvuzela getting added to the Oxford Dictionary of English. Merrill Perlman, who writes the "Language Corner" column for Columbia Journalism Review, noticed that many reports of the story couldn't get the name of the dictionary right. Here is her guide for the perplexed.
Twitter was all, ah, atwitter last week because a new edition of a dictionary came out, adding about 2,000 words to the "official" English language. Among those words were "chillax," "cool hunter," "turducken," and "vuvuzela."
On Twitter, and in some media stories, the new dictionary was variously named as the The Oxford English Dictionary, The New Oxford American Dictionary, The Oxford Dictionary of English, and simply, The Oxford Dictionary.
Only one of those is correct, and therein lies a problem.
The dictionary that "legitimized" these words was The Oxford Dictionary of English, which debuted in 1998, as the, um, New Oxford Dictionary of English. It's not the same dictionary as any of the others, though many of the same words are in all of them, and they all share the Oxford name. There are also "compact," "abridged," and "concise" versions of those dictionaries, as well as versions for various parts of the English-speaking world.
Dictionaries, like cars, have many models that are designed for different audiences. Want
historical usage and the etymology of a word? The OED is the granddaddy, in that it never deletes definitions or uses, only adds to them. Want to know how words are used in the United States? NOAD might be for you. Want to know how words are now being used anywhere English is spoken, regardless of local usage? The ODE could be the one you want.
For Americans, "Webster" is the word that immediately brings to mind dictionaries. Here, too, confusion reigns. Webster's New College Dictionary, Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Webster's (First, Second, Third) International Dictionary, Random House Webster's Dictionary, Random House Webster's Unabridged Dictionary ... well, you get the idea.
How to choose? Part will depend on what you want the dictionary for. If you just want to know how to spell a word, almost any dictionary will do, as long as it's less than ten years old or so. (Almost no one spells it "employe" anymore.) If you want to know what a word means, though, you start getting into the realm of choice. Some dictionaries don't admit new words until they're firmly established in common usage. That helps explain why "vuvuzela" made it so quickly: The World Cup this year exposed millions of people (some unhappily) to the sound of and word for the horn that is traditionally blown by fans at soccer matches in Africa. Some keep all definitions, others delete ones that are no longer "au courant."
Some words are not really "new," but just new to that dictionary. "Turducken," for example, which is a chicken stuffed inside a duck stuffed inside a turkey, has been around by that name at least since the 1980s, and had probably been sampled around Louisiana for a lot longer.
Some dictionaries are much more liberal in accepting new words, even if they have not reached "common" status. (In less liberal moments, I call those "slut dictionaries." You can figure out why.) There is nothing wrong with those dictionaries, but taking them as gospel may not be appropriate for publications that reach diverse audiences. "Cool hunter" (someone whose job is to seek out the latest trends) and "chillax" (a conflation of "chill out" and "relax," pronounced chill-AX), may produce only confusion in many readers. And it's probably not a good idea to use a word if you have to search for a dictionary that includes the meaning you're using. That's why publications will usually have a "house" dictionary, so everyone is literally on the same page.
The dictionary favored by the Associated Press and many news publications, Webster's New World College Dictionary, tries to walk the line between fad and fuddy-duddy. Though who uses "firetruck" is a mystery.

Penguins sink Islanders in playoff opener
Penguins 5, Islanders 0
Pascal Dupuis scored twice, Marc-Andre Fleury made 26 saves, and the top-seeded Pittsburgh Penguins opened the playoffs with a 5-0 romp over the New York Islanders on Wednesday night.
Beau Bennett, Kris Letang and Tanner Glass also scored for the Penguins, who had no trouble against the upstart Islanders even with star Sidney Crosby sidelined by a broken jaw. Pittsburgh hardly needed its captain to continue its mastery of the Islanders, who made their first playoff appearance since 2007.
Fleury earned his sixth career playoff shutout. The Penguins, the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, beat Evgeni Nabokov four times in the game's first 22 minutes, including goals by Letang and Dupuis 32 seconds apart early in the second period to send Nabokov to the bench after he stopped just 11 shots.
Kevin Poulin came on in relief and surrendered a soft goal to Glass. Game 2 is Friday in Pittsburgh.
The Penguins hoped to have Crosby back for the first time since he was struck in the face by a puck on March 30 in a game against the Islanders. Doctors, however, declined to clear the NHL's third-leading scorer, feeling his jaw wasn't healed enough for contact.
Considering the way his teammates picked up the slack on the first night of what the Penguins hope is a two-month march to the Stanley Cup, there is no need to rush Crosby back.
Pittsburgh rolled to the top of the East even though Crosby missed the final quarter of the season. The Penguins were bolstered by the arrival of trade deadline acquisitions Jarome Iginla, Brenden Morrow, Jussi Jokinen and Doug Murray.
All four players are searching for their first Cup title, and all four made an immediate impact in the series opener. Iginla and Jokinen both had two assists, and Morrow and Murray helped bottle up New York's quickly improving offense.
The rookie Bennett earned a start over veteran forward Tyler Kennedy due in part to his quick maturation during the season. Playing on one of the NHL's deepest rosters, the 21-year-old has shown a deft touch around the net and a penchant for avoiding mistakes. He paid off coach Dan Bylsma's vote of confidence, needing only 25 seconds of ice time to score his first playoff goal.
The Islanders had nearly killed Brian Strait's penalty when a clearing attempt hit linesman Greg Devorski at center ice and stopped. Evgeni Malkin brought the puck into the zone and lost control, but Bennett chased it down and raced in on the right side before flipping a shot over Nabokov's shoulder from in close to give the Penguins the lead 3:30 in.
Dupuis made it 2-0 about 10 minutes later following a mad scramble in front. Craig Adams bullrushed Nabokov at the left post, setting off a chaotic sequence that ended with Dupuis smacking the puck out of the air from 10 feet out. It sailed by a badly out of position Nabokov and into the net.
The situation quickly got worse for New York after the first intermission. The 37-year-old goalie - making his 81st playoff start - had no chance on Letang's wrist shot from the left circle 1:19 into the second period. Dupuis followed by pouncing on a rebound off Mark Eaton's shot from the point to push Pittsburgh's edge to 4-0 and send Nabokov slowly skating to his bench in favor of Poulin.

The Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals (SBFC), today awarded DuPont with its 2013 Bioeconomy Leadership Award. 2013 marks the first year of this award, aimed at honoring an organization for demonstrated and sustained leadership excellence in advancing the development of the biobased economy. DuPont was recognized for its pioneering work in two strategic areas: renewably sourced materials and fuels.
The award will be presented at the annual SBFC conference, which brings together industrial, academic and government experts to discuss the latest progress and breakthroughs in the research, development and deployment of biobased fuels and materials.
"DuPont is committed to the biobased economy. Our approach to realizing that vision is through integrated science. We merge industrial biotechnology with traditional skills in chemistry, materials sciences, agronomy and engineering to accelerate commercial development and deployment of products made in an entirely new, renewable way," said Mike Arbige, Research and Development leader for DuPont Industrial Biosciences, who will accept the award on behalf of DuPont. "It is an honor to be the first recipient of this award. We will continue to innovate and drive commercial deployment of renewable materials and fuels in order to meet the needs of our growing population."
In the field of renewably sourced materials, the SBFC recognized DuPont's first commercial shipments of Bio-PDO™ from its Loudon, Tenn., plant – the first facility to produce the versatile, renewable biobased product. Bio-PDO™ is used in cosmetics, apparel and industrial applications such as deicing fluid. Bio-PDO™ also was noted for its advancement of high-performance fibers such as DuPont™ Sorona®, which is stain resistant and highly durable. In addition, DuPont's continued advancements in biobased isoprene development based on microbial fermentation of renewable sugars also drew attention from SBFC.
In the field of renewable biofuels, the SBFC recognized DuPont for its rapid development of cellulosic ethanol and biobutanol technologies. DuPont has been operating a demonstration cellulosic ethanol facility in Vonore, Tenn., since 2009; and last November, DuPont broke ground on its commercial scale 30 million gallons per year cellulosic ethanol facility in Nevada, Iowa. The facility will be among the first and largest cellulosic biorefineries in the world upon completion in 2014. As well, DuPont was recognized for engineering a yeast strain that produces isobutanol from sugars, eliminating energy intensive purification steps; and for establishing a new protocol to provide a sustainable source of biomass. This work is driving innovation across the supply chain, including new harvesting equipment and residue management practices that yield benefits for farmers.
About DuPont:
DuPont has been bringing world-class science and engineering to the global marketplace in the form of innovative products, materials, and services since 1802. The company believes that by collaborating with customers, governments, NGOs, and thought leaders we can help find solutions to such global challenges as providing enough healthy food for people everywhere, decreasing dependence on fossil fuels, and protecting life and the environment

Chants of "Let's Go, Red Sox," blended with screams of excitement as Sox fans rooted for the hometown team in the World Series.
Chants of "Let's go, Red Sox" blended with screams of excitement as Sox fans rooted for the hometown team in the World Series. "The atmosphere is charged," said Christine Gleason, 43, of Abington. But Gleason was not at Fenway Park. She was 20 miles south in her neighbor's Abington driveway, huddled around a fire, eating chili and watching the game on a large-screen television. "It's a lot of fun," said Jim Tangherlini, 46, who hosted the party with his girlfriend. "We camp out in the driveway for every game of the Series." While he does not specifically invite strangers, those who wander by "are welcomed to come in," Tangherlini said. On weekends, the party can draw up to 70 people, he said. "It's just like going to a game in that you never know who you'll meet each night," said Bill Keneally of Braintree. That game-like environment is exactly what Tangherlini was hoping for when he first threw the parties for the 2004 World Series. "We couldn't get tickets to the game, so we decided to make do with what we did have," he said. Keneally's friend Matt Stevens of Weymouth said it is "absolutely wonderful." "We had so much fun in 2004 that we had to come again," Stevens said. "Besides, the Sox couldn't have written a better script this year." Party-goers watch the games on a 65-inch television that Tangherlini rents for the month for $250. "It's great," he said. "I can watch football games on it when the Series isn't on." And, for Red Sox Nation members as much as for mailmen apparently, inclement weather does not stop these hearty fans. "In 2004 it was really cold," he said. "People were out with hats and mittens on, so hopefully it will be warmer this year." For Robbie Lindo, another party-goer from Abington, the steady rain for the Series' opening game Wednesday hardly dampened his spirits. "You just don't get to do anything like this any other time of year," he said. Enterprise

Nicolette Hardwicke
Award Sponsor: The Vickie Milazzo Institute
Nicolette Hardwicke is the founder and director of Paddington British Private School. Fueled by her passion for early childhood education and dream to create a unique school with a hands-on curriculum, Nicolette opened the school with a handful of children in a church's portable building.

Big Changes! Accumulating Snow Tonight
Big changes as our January thaw comes to an end today. A cold front will pass through the state and be in lower Michigan by 11am. Morning temperatures in the low 50s will fall to near 33 by 5pm. Clouds are around much of the day, but we may see some brief clearing late morning. Winds are steady from the south early and then from the west-northwest 12-22mph.
A vigorous disturbance for tonight pulls snow and sleet in by about 7pm. The snow and sleet will fall steadily through the night and accumulate to 2-4" by tomorrow morning. Snow totals of closer to 4" will be in Racine, Kenosha, Walworth, Milwaukee and Waukesha counties. Lesser amounts as you move north and inland.
The cold air settle firmly into place for the coming week with seasonal highs in the mid to upper 20s and lows in the teens. Chance for light snow again Wednesday and Friday.

A Sinhalese lady once showed me how to make this curry a couple of years back. Traditionally this mango curry is prepared by cutting unpeeled mangoes right across into two halves (with the pit) and then into four. It was because of the pit that I was not able to figure out what it was the first time I had this. The mango pieces are suppose to be cooked until soft but still holding their shapes and you need firm, green (or slightly ripe but firm) mangoes to make this curry. I usually cut the mango into cubes and I rough peel them as well because I think it tastes better and feels safer.
In Sinhalese cuisine, red chili powder and unroasted curry powder are traditionally used. The rule is that when you use either of these, you should add the chili powder and/or the unroasted curry powder initially (in the oil) and roast it until brown (not burnt) to get the raw flavour out of the powders. Since we always use roasted curry powder to make curries, I always add it later when I remember to. ;) If you use unroasted curry powder, add it initially with the turmeric and the chili powder.
It's also very common to use whole cinnamon quills in many Sinhalese curries, such as this, but I have also seen people skip it since whole cinnamon quills and cardamom pods are rather expensive, that too to be using daily in your curries, which is why I have stated it as an optional ingredient. What it does is to enhance the flavour and the aroma of the curry but it is still a scrumptious curry without it.
Cut the onion finely. Chop and make a smooth paste out of the garlic and ginger. Peel the mangoes and cut them into pieces. Heat some oil in a large pan and fry the chili powder and turmeric until brown but don't let it get burnt. Then add onion, curry leaves, garlic and ginger and saute until until the onion is translucent. Add the mango pieces and mix well until well coated with all the spices. Add the curry powder, water, salt, cinnamon, black pepper and sugar and mix well. Cover and let it cook for about 30-40 minutes at below medium heat till it is as soft as you'd like it to be. The mango pieces are suppose to be cooked until soft but still holding their shapes. Add the coconut milk last and let it cook for about 5 more minutes. Serve hot with rice!

Liquid Medicine Manufacturer
Medication Management for Patients with Swallowing Difficulties
There have been significant advances in medicine, and this means that people are living longer and healthier lives. Modern medicines are often created as solid medications, the consequence of which is that people with swallowing difficulties are unable to comfortably take the medication they are prescribed - At Rosemont Pharmaceuticals we aim to deliver effective medication management for patients such as these.
Creating Liquid Medicines for Dysphagia and Those Who Can't Swallow Tablets
Rosemont Pharmaceuticals is dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of people through the development, manufacture and supply of Liquid Medicine for patients who have difficulty in swallowing solid medications or those who need a precisely measured dose not available in a solid tablet. These medicines are made for a wide range of uses including infections, musculoskeletal and joint disease as well as obstetrics, gynaecology and urinary-tract disorders amongst others.
Crushing Tablets - Putting Patients at Risk
Patients who have difficulty in swallowing will often use their solid medication despite it being unpleasant or painful to take. The need for a comfortable solution to taking medication often leads patients to take measures such as tablet crushing for easier ingestion.
This, unfortunately, can lead to complications which the patient may be unaware of, and potentially an overdose of their medication. Tablets designed to be broken down in the body and absorbed at a certain rate are absorbed much faster when crushed, and this can lead to an elevated level of risk when it comes to potential side-effects. Liquid drugs avoid this risk, by providing an easily ingestible and precisely measurable method of taking medicine.
In addition to a range of over 150 liquid medicines, Rosemont provides a wide variety of resources designed to help healthcare professionals deliver the best possible care for their patients. Resources include information on the symptoms of swallowing difficulties that may be caused by dysphagia and much more.

If you have any questions about what we do here at Rosemont Pharmaceuticals, or you would like some more information, then please request a product reference guide (for healthcare professionals) or contact us – we'd be happy to hear from you.

If you ever drove a Honda Civic in the 90s and liked it, this car will bring you back. Perfect for driving around town with some highway thrown in.

Las Vegas has become the one-upmanship capitol of the world. Whether it is building the tallest hotel by one floor, adding the biggest name to your entertainment lineup or creating jaw-dropping interior designs, Vegas is always looking for a way to entice you while outdoing their neighbor. In recent times the buffet has become the battleground, and The Buffet at ARIA recently revamped everything—and what they have created leaves them telling the rest of Las Vegas, "top that."
If you are going to reboot your version of a buffet that is still in its infancy, you might as well go all out. Executive Chef Shawn Smilie pulled out all the stops as he recreated The Buffet at ARIA, giving his guests the freshness and flavors of a sit-down dining experience while giving you all the choices you would ever want in a buffet.
While you will find all of your favorites here, you will also find in every area that what you get is above and beyond what you have come to expect from a buffet. The pizza station by itself is a masterpiece, beginning with the fact that Chef Shawn, who has an allergy to gluten, made sure to offer an assortment of gluten free pizzas. But then to throw out a New York Style that tastes just like the east coast version, which is truly impressive, as well as a unique and tasty pizza topped with an egg. If you love pizza, you are not going to find a better place to be than The Buffet.
The seafood is always fresh and features all-you-can-eat crab legs. Next, head over to the carving station where there are more things being carved than I have room to mention—but if it is a meat and can be carved, you are likely to find it here. You are also going to find a wide variety of fresh hand-cut sushi, and that's just the beginning. You are also going to find stations for just about every type of food and from nearly every region of the world. The stations within The Buffet include: the fish market, Asian, Italian, pizza, Mediterranean, Tandoori, Latin, carvery, diner, salad and sweets. And unique to The Buffet is the Tandoor oven that creates baked naan and freshly prepared kabobs.
Salad tends to be the last thing on peoples minds when they go to a buffet, but Shawn has changed that with what might be a little more costly for ARIA but a lot tastier for you: the Aria salad station. Three different types of lettuce and a number of fresh ingredients to go in your salad, all mixed freshly right in front of you, giving you a salad so tasty it will become a mainstay of your buffet experience in the future.
If you happen to run across Chef Shawn at The Buffet and he looks familiar, you are likely remembering him from his recent appearance on "Chopped" on the Food Network. Don't be afraid to ask for a picture with Shawn as he is as friendly a Chef as you will find and you are likely to find him on television again soon with his personality and culinary skills. Sadly Shawn was chopped, but if you have not seen this episode, keep your eyes open for it as in his episode the chefs were stuck with baskets of leftovers: "ouch!" While Shawn was chopped in the appetizer round, the open faced hero sandwich with matzo cheese sauce was well received by the judges but they seemed to think it was too rich and heavy; clearly they don't know what visitors to Vegas are looking for! My suggestion would be to add this dish to The Buffet lineup. And just in case you were wondering whether what you see on "Chopped" is what you get, they have no clue until the basket opens what they are getting and they also have their cellphones taken away and are left with nothing but their knives—but that is what makes that show so interesting.
What else could The Buffet at ARIA possibly do to entice you? This is Vegas, so a cocktail or three are a must and for $12.99 you get unlimited mimosas, Bellini's, bloody mary's, premium beer, sangria and sparkling wine. If you have ordered a cocktail at most bars on the strip you know that $12.99 is probably going to get you one drink so this is great place to start your night.
"The reopening has been so busy, there were so many different things that went into it and the first month we had to work out all of inefficiencies as we went along, but it really has been amazing," Sean said. In addition to the undertaking of all the menu items, there was purchasing dishes, creating a more open and inviting setting and other little intricacies such as the spinning ice cream machine. And, the results speak for themselves.
The buffet is as synonymous with Las Vegas as the blackjack table, and while an ace and a face will still give you blackjack, the buffet resembles nothing like the metal pans sitting in hot water with food you had no idea how long it was sitting there. While the prices have gone up, the quality has now increased at an even higher rate, leaving you with The Buffet at ARIA that gives you a gourmet selection of foods in an upscale setting that is longing for a new word as it has clearly outgrown the term "Buffet."

Woman Ruins Boy's Brilliant Buzzer-Beater By Bellowing Like a Banshee [VIDEO]
For the few of you out there who haven't been following the Raleigh, North Carolina pee-wee basketball league this year, here's your crash course in awesome.The thrill of victory and the agony of hearing a suburban Mom shout like a lunatic are all in full display in this sweet clip.
With only one play left and down by one, #23 dribbles just past half court and launches a 3-point shot desperation heave. It would be a beautiful moment caught on tape if not the for a hopped up on Red Bull and box wine Mom spitting out blistering play-by-play and overshadowing the final moment.
Disney will soon be calling– the kid's story will end up as a feature film and the mom will end up on Sportscenter filling in for Stewart Scott. She'll have to work on being a little more annoying to fit in though.

Anyone who knows me knows that my darling Hannah, who just turned 6, has not spent the night away from home yet. This is mostly due to me and my anxiety about her being away from me. O.K., it is all due to me. There, I admitted it. I am moving on. So yesterday on the way home from the store it dawned on me that Jon would be staying with my Mom and Step Dad this weekend and we only had Hannah. I thought that now would be as good a time as any for her to spend her first night away from home at Grandma Mary & Grandpa Mack's house. I knew that G & G Mary & Mack would be thrilled, if they were available, and they were. I said that it needed to take place that night (Friday) before I changed my mind. So Aaron and I made plans to go out to eat and walk around the mall. We decided on Molly Woo's, a Cameron Mitchell Restaurant here in Columbus. One thing I really like about Cameron Mitchell restaurants is their experience and willingness to accommodate gluten-free diets. I have always had great meals at all of their places.
I picked Hannah up at school, met my Mom & Step Dad at our house to pass off Jon and then packed up Hannah to go to Grandma's. We dropped her off and I nearly had a heart attack, but nothing that a glass of wine or three couldn't fix.
We arrived at Molly Woo's and I decided to have sushi. This was pretty much the first time I was going to eat sushi. I did go with my Dad to Otani when I was a freshman in high school. I had to do a report for Social Studies on sushi, so Dad took me there. I don't really remember being crazy about it at all. Recently my sister has found a new love in sushi and has begged me to give it a try again. I have been hesitant b/c it is hard enough to eat American food gluten-free, sushi & Japanese food sounded very intimidating. So, if there was any place for me to give sushi a try, a Cameron Mitchell restaurant is the one I felt most comfortable doing so in. There were 4 different kinds of sushi on the GF menu. Spicy Tuna Roll (togarushi & cucumber), California Roll (snow crab, avocado & cucumber), Veggie Roll (have no idea, no description) or Spicy Salmon Roll (cooked salmon, sriracha mayonnaise & cucumber). I chose the Spicy Salmon Roll. Aaron was having no part of the sushi, so I was on my own. I would have loved to try the Spicy Tuna roll too, but I was afraid that I wouldn't like it and then it would go to waste. I am going to save that until I go have sushi with my Mom and we can share some dishes. Along with my Spicy Salmon roll I ordered the chicken lettuce wraps (these aren't offered GF, but the server told me that they would be happy to make them GF for me ~ she brought it up, I didn't even have to ask, very impressed). My Spicy Salmon Rolls were served with some fresh ginger on the side (to cleanse the palate ~ like I know what I am talking about!) and some wasabi. I can't have the soy sauce there and they didn't have a GF option. No biggie. Next time I can bring my La Choy soy sauce with me. Honestly, these rolls were amazing by themselves. No soy sauce was needed. I tried the ginger along with the rolls….OMG…I am SO in love. I see myself having to get carry-out sushi from Molly Woo's on a semi-regular basis now.
After dinner we walked around the mall and bought Hannah a Camp Rock nightgown at The Disney Store. She loves it!! She had a blast at Grandma & Grandpa's house! I only called 3 times; twice last night and once this AM on the way to the gym. So, I guess you can look at it this way, I had a glass of wine for each call I made. 😉 A good time was had by all.

The invites are out and something is afoot in Mountain View, CA, at the Google campus. Whatever could it be? Well, this much we know so far, Google will be "unveiling some product innovations in two of [its] most popular products."
According to an earlier report from the WSJ, Google will unveil a Gmail plug-in that streams Facebook- and Twitter-like updates from your Gmail contacts. Said plug-in could also integrate other Google services like YouTube and Picasa down the road. We won't know for sure until tomorrow at 10AM PT.
