ICY DOCK MB982SP-1S - Professional SSD (Solid State Drive) Converter for your Professional Mac Pro System
{rokbox title=|Icy Dock|}images/stories/press/icydock/mb982sp1s_a.jpg{/rokbox}
What is the reason to have a Mac Pro system? Some people may point to the performance, and while others will point to the appearance. No matter the reason, you tend to discover regardless that Apple has put an extraordinary amount of effort of the Mac Pro line in both its performance and appearance. Using a system like the Mac Pro, maintaining top notch performance is vital. However, using mechanical hard drive creates a massive bottleneck in any system. Therefore, SSD (Solid State Drive) is undoubtedly the most important component to upgrade with your Mac Pro. However, the Mac Pro Sled is only designed to fit 3.5" hard drives making it naturally incompatible with SSD, which use a 2.5" format. With that said, a converter kit is required to upgrade an SSD on your Mac Pro system. Using the same thorough approach as Apple has, we designed the MB982SP-1S 2.5" to 3.5" SATA SSD converter for Mac Pro users.

The new age of cloud design
Sculpteo collaborates with world class international designers to create a new generation of artworks: unique bespoke 3D printed objects. The introduction of Cloud 3D printing marks a new chapter in the history of design.
Paris, 20th February 2012 / 3D printing / Design / Sculpteo
In the 1970s Italian designers thought that the mass-manufacturing industry had to change and must be more inspired by the smartness and the uniqueness of products which are made by craftsmen. Gaetano Pesce experimented to produce a series of works made using digital tools which were not yet fully developed at that time. The concept behind Gaetano's work was to use technology to create a series of unique objects in order to fight against the 'totalitarianism of sameness'. With their campaign for mass-customization, Sculpteo is re-igniting this idea and starting a manufacturing and design revolution in 2012 using the latest Cloud 3D printing technology

Phillip Johnson's modernist architectural masterpiece Glass House lives on through the photographic work of James Welling in New Pictures 3: Glass House. With the effect of color filters in Welling's digital camera, the light that constantly pours into the house gives the space a vibrantly ethereal glow. Hues of red, yellow, and sometimes the entire rainbow spectrum are used. What to the naked eye would appear to be reality is morphed and enhanced in New Pictures 3 into a realm of visual delight; a new perspective on an architectural site.

In Theaters This Week
Bill Murray as FDR?
The casting might sound weird at first. But Murray's subtly charming presence ends up being one of the stronger elements of the otherwise lightweight romance "Hyde Park on Hudson," which depicts one of the most revered U.S. presidents with all the substance and insight of a lukewarm cup of tea.
"Notting Hill" director Roger Michell, working from a script by Richard Nelson, focuses on a brief period in the secret affair between President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his fifth cousin Margaret Suckley -- or "Daisy," as she was known. Unflaggingly loyal, earnest and supportive, she's also mousy, quiet and a total bore -- a huge waste of the versatile and vibrant talents of Laura Linney.
We also don't get much of a sense of Roosevelt in terms of his power or popularity; "Lincoln," this is not. Instead, it's all rather cozy and insular amid the rolling hills and tasteful period trappings. Murray could just
"Hyde Park on Hudson" specifically calls forth the June 1939 weekend when FDR hosted King George VI and Queen Elizabeth of England (Samuel West and Olivia Colman) at his family's home
Michell awkwardly tries to balance both the farce of cultural clashes -- the royals couldn't possibly attend a picnic and eat hot dogs! -- and the jealous tension that arises as Daisy realizes she's not the president's only paramour. Linney has a couple of nice scenes with Elizabeth Marvel as the president's secretary, who tries to get her to snap out of it and stop being such a foolish child. She has a point.
Olivia Williams brings a no-nonsense presence to her portrayal of Eleanor Roosevelt in a "Rushmore" reunion with Murray that's a total letdown. The possibility that the first lady enjoyed a lesbian relationship on the side is merely alluded to but never substantiated; still, an exploration of that might have yielded some actual humanity and surprises.

What is the best version to get of the 95 minute cut (assuming it is not the blu-ray)? Thank you very much!

Mixed feelings — I got 'em. I've wound up my wine, beer and cider columns in the Irish Examiner Weekend and the final ones appeared on Saturday October 20.
More to the point, I hope you will join me in offering a hearty welcome to Leslie Williams who begins fresh new drinks columns in the Irish Examiner on Saturday, October 27. His survey of what's what on the drinks shelves kicks off with his pick of the best from the National Off-Licence Association Gold Star Awards.
Thank you.
° Thank you to everyone who has read my columns, and to those who have responded with complaints or compliments, tips and suggestions.
° Thank you to the importers, distributors, retailers and PR people for supplying samples, pictures, information – and especially tasting opportunities.
° Thank you to groups as diverse as the Sexual Violence Centre, Cork Skeptics and St Luke's ICA for hosting me at events where I attempted to help unwind the true qualities of our drinks from the sometimes misleading reputations that surround them.
° Most of all, I am indebted to the Irish Examiner's editor Tim Vaughan and features editor Vickie Maye – and her predecessor, Fionnuala Quinlan – for giving me the freedom to explore this fascinating topic. It has been a privilege and a pleasure and I hope at least some of that enthusiasm has rubbed off on readers.
♦ Earlier this year I decided to bring to an end my regular columns about wine and beer in the Irish Examiner Weekend. It wasn't a sudden epiphany — I had been coming to the conclusion that it was reaching the end of its usefulness. There's also a practical purpose. I wanted to scale back, for now at least, my working week: Of the various things I do, these columns were the most neatly discrete component and thus the easiest to excise. And so they had to go.
♦ So here ends my affection for wine and beer? Eh… Hardly! I am hoping to continue doing as an amateur one of the things I'd been doing as a pro… I wasn't joking all those times I recommended readers to go check out open-ended tastings. Seriously. When you begin to actively sniff and taste and compare wines a few dozen at a time, you step into another world. It's a bit like sending your nose to the movies. To this end, I've requested drinks businesses to keep me on their mailing lists for non-tutored tastings. As some bloggers will know, for some time I've been encouraging bloggers to get themselves invited to such trade & media tastings, and encouraging wine businesses to invite them – so at least I am being consistent.
♦ I am now tidying up the loose ends on this blog — firstly removing every instance of the now-redundant claim to be be the Irish Examiner's wine columnist. In a week or two I will also be posting a few things which may be useful resource but which I hadn't time to fire up recently.
♦ Apart from such voluntary bits and pieces, I don't plan to recommence writing in any capacity in the near future. Nor will I be looking for work of any kind with any drinks business. I remain working at various roles in the backroom of the Irish Examiner.
♦ In only one way has dropping these columns been easy. I believe I've been most useful as a map, assisting readers get a sense of the lay of the land, rather than as a signpost, directing them towards specific recommendations. Yes I do believe there is value in the latter, and stand over every bottle I've ever highlighted. However, I think we are far too eager to hand our sovereignty over to whatever credible-sounding authority figure is currently at large — with ultimately disastrous results, as will be obvious to anyone observing the Irish economy, abuse cover-ups etc. What's on your dining room table is hardly as grave an issue as those — but it does spring from the same credulity-versus-sovereignty spectrum. And feedback suggests I may not have been nudging readers towards a more sceptical outlook as much as I'd have liked. If I do lunge back into the field of taste again, that's the area I'll want to address.
♦ But enough about me. Columnists come and columnists go. Big deal. One party-goer may have leapt into a taxi wearing a lampshade on his head and zoomed into the night – but the party is only getting started back at the Irish Examiner Weekend where Leslie is wielding the corkscrew.
♦ While this post necessarily has dwelt on other details I'll finish for now with the reminder that really it should all be about fun and flavour. I hope you will always have good quality and value-for-money stuff in your glass. Because you're worth it.
I trust this post answers any questions you may have but if it doesn't please drop me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com. ♦

Browns: Pat Shurmur wants Brandon Weeden to cut down on interceptions (with video)
Coach Pat Shurmur had a simple and direct answer Wednesday when asked what Brandon Weeden has to do to improve in the second half of the season.
"Don't throw interceptions," he said. "Done — end of story. I want to be right to the point."
Shurmur did not have to dig deep during the bye week to come up with that one. It's like the joke about a gray-bearded guru on a mountain top telling a follower the secret to a long life: "Refrain from dying."
Weeden has thrown 12 interceptions. He has thrown multiple interceptions four times. Not surprisingly the Browns lost all four games. He threw one pick when the Browns beat the Bengals, 34-24, and none in the 7-6 victory over the Chargers.
"I have to play better," Weeden said after practice. "I know that. I'm not a moron. I have to do my part to help this team win.
"I'm a rookie. I'm still playing teams for the first time. I'm still seeing things for the first time. I'm not a nine-or 10-year veteran. I think people might lose track of that sometimes. That is what it is. I have to play better."
Weeden never played the rookie card like that during the first nine weeks. He was asked if he is under more scrutiny than other rookies because he is 29 and did not have a direct answer.
"I don't know," he said. "I could be 34 and it doesn't matter. I've still only played nine games. Everybody's got a different opinion on it and my opinion is, I'm busting my tail day in and day out to try to get better. I feel like I put in the work and I'm not shortchanging myself.
"If I'm not putting in the work that I need to put in to get better, then I've got to look in the mirror. But 29 or not, this position at this level, you've got to argue is one of the toughest in all of sports for sure and like I said, I can be 21, 29, 41. Ask Brett Favre. He finished in his 40s (41) and I guarantee he would still say it was hard." Continued...
When the Browns play Sunday in Dallas, they will face a quarterback who has thrown more interceptions. Tony Romo has thrown 13 picks.
Most of Romo's interceptions have come in chunks. He threw five in a 34-18 loss to the Bears and four in a 29-24 loss to the Giants.
Romo has played in 114 games. In his 86 starts, the Cowboys are 23-10 when he doesn't throw an interception and 24-13 when he throws only one. They are 4-12 when he throws two or more.
"Interceptions always fall on the quarterback," Romo said in a conference call Wednesday. "I don't care if it's a tipped ball or someone runs the wrong route or you get hit when you throw it. It all falls back on the quarterback's lap.
"As a quarterback, you have to let it go. You have to trust the people that are around you. Otherwise, you don't have a chance as an offense. And our team is doing that now."
Romo did not throw an interception in either of the last two games. Dallas lost to Atlanta, 19-13, and beat the Eagles, 38-23. Romo threw a combined three touchdown passes in those games.
Weeden is trying to walk the fine line of being aggressive and being smart. Two interceptions thrown by Weeden in the red zone in the game against the Giants led directly to the 41-27 loss. In the most recent game vs. Baltimore, the Browns were in the red zone five times. Weeden did not throw one pass in the end zone and the Browns lost, 25-15, to the Ravens without scoring a touchdown.
"We never want to throw interceptions," Weeden said. "That's kind of been my priority since I played peewee football. My aggressive manner, my mindset, sometimes gets me in trouble, but I'm not going to take that away from myself. I agree I've got to take care of the football. I've got to cut down on them, but I think guys that are aggressive like that — sometimes that's one category they unfortunately may have a couple more than they'd like. It's not good, but we're just being aggressive and sometimes making that aggressive throw catapults you to get momentum."
Weeden still ranks in the top half of the league with 29 completions of 20 yards or longer. He is tied with Romo for 12th, but that number has slipped steadily. At one point he was fifth in the league, a notch ahead of Tom Brady in New England.

Police track down auto theft suspect
Originally published March 13, 2012 at 10:22 a.m., updated March 13, 2012 at 9:28 p.m.
Vancouver police detained a suspected auto thief Tuesday morning after a manhunt in the Countryside Woods neighborhood in east Vancouver.
Colton Erickson, 23, no address available, was arrested on suspicion of first-degree possession of stolen property, said Kim Kapp, Vancouver police spokeswoman.
The call started as a reported car prowl in progress at 9:11 a.m. at 15705 N.E. Blue Grass Drive, according to emergency dispatch logs.
A teenage boy at that home reported seeing someone breaking into his car and went to a neighbor's home to get help, Kapp said.
An officer in the area saw an SUV making sharp turns, apparently trying to elude the police vehicle, and the driver matched the prowler suspect's description, Kapp said. The officer came around a corner and saw the SUV empty and a man running away.
Police canvassed the Fisher's Landing area northwest of Southeast Mill Plain Boulevard and 164th Avenue searching for the man, described as a white male with short hair wearing a tan jacket with a hoodie and jeans.
After several minutes, such a man was seen running through area yards and was detained by police.
Nearby Mill Plain Elementary School was temporarily placed in lockdown, probably because a K-9 unit was in the area, Kapp said.
Evergreen Public Schools spokeswoman Carol Fenstermacher said students were kept inside the school, but classes continued as normal.

Jack Black. Yes, he's already married. Yes, he has children. Yes, he's old enough to be my father.
But he's hilarious and chubby and I love chubbiness and I love hilariousness.
Like Jack Black in the Holiday or Envy or Gulliver's Travels (which, by the way, I was very disappointed with because it only covered one very small portion of the actual tale and I was really excited for the land of immortals) or pretty much any movie he's in aside from Year One because that beard was just a little much. But for you, Jack, I'd deal with hairiness. I'd deal with it. Because I love you. Whoa, did I really just say that? Yes. And I'm not afraid. Or ashamed.I love you, Jack Black. If you ever get a divorce (as long as it isn't the result of you cheating because ew) then please hit up Lady Brooklynn on tumblr (http://thebeautifultimesofladybrooklynn.tumblr.com/) or twitter (LadyBrooklynn) or call my house, I don't care, just get a hold of me.

LEGO Friends Butterfly Beauty Shop (Credit: LEGO)Amid much pomp and circumstance, each year the toy industry picks one deserving plaything to receive the Toy of the Year award. Among this year's hotly tipped frontrunners are the newly revamped Furby, Activision's collectible Skylanders: Giants, and the staggeringly popular Monster High dolls.
But for every friendly toy, there are a handful of hateful ones.
The Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood (CCFC), a group that aims to suppress marketing that targets children, has come up with its own take on the whole shebang. Their award is dubbed the TOADY Award, which rather dubiously stands for "Toys Oppressive And Destructive to Young Children." It's bestowed upon the year's most exploitative (and downright worst) toy as determined by public vote.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Another triumph for Invictus, whose wine we introduced to our customers for the first time in 1998. Made from fruit grown at a prestigious, first-growth quality vineyard, Invictus is just the kind of wine we seek but do not find very frequently: one that tastes 50-75% better than its price..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Cullers entry-level 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Casaeda bursts from the glass with juicy red berries, licorice, spices and menthol. This is an especially juicy, forward Cabernet Sauvignon with plenty of early appeal in its generous fruit. At the same time, the addition of Syrah to the blend adds..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Even better, and a killer value, is the 2010 Syrah Colson Canyon. Aged nine months in neutral oak, this 100% Syrah (1,000+ cases made) exhibits attractive notes of roasted herbs, licorice, camphor, blackberries, cassis, roasted meat and bouquet garni. Full body, gorgeous purity and a wonderful..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "... Firm tannins frame an expressive core of dark red cherries, flowers and sweet herbs. The inner perfume of Zinfandel resonates on the finish... it is quite beautiful..."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Here the high alcohol does not obscure the layered fruits and overall complexity of this exceptional Cabernet. Thick, ripe and richly endowed, it keeps its black fruit, ripe tannins and liquorous barrel notes all in proportion, and pulls in top flight fruit from Champoux, Sagemoor, the estate..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "I was totally struck by the 2009 Grenache LAnge Rouge, a wine that captivates all the senses. I hope readers can appreciate just how rare it is to encounter a Central Coast Grenache with this much sheer finesse. The purity of the fruit is simply striking. The 2009 clocks in at 15.8% alcohol, none..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Bright saline notes frame expressive fruit in the 2010 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast. A beautifully layered wine, the 2010 impresses for its length, finesse and balance. I very much like the sense of precision and cut here. Sweet floral notes meld into red berries and spices in this striking, delineated..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Mocha, chocolate, spices, plums and black cherries seem to literally jump from the glass. Merlot plays a pretty important role in the 2010, which gives the wine much of its roundness and early accessibility. Round, expressive and racy, the 2010 Ranch is a terrific effort from Snowden..."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Pinot Noir is a juicy, silky wine laced with expressive dark red fruit, flowers and spices. Higher-toned hints of mint and rose petals add lift and freshness throughout. This is an especially gracious, refined Pinot from LAngevin and proprietors Alan Peirson and Robbie Meyer. I love the..

WEB EXCLUSIVE: Leaps and bounds: Johnson's record-breaking pole vault keys East win
BY Matt Welch, email@example.com
For the first time this season, all three Plano ISD track and field squads occupied the same venue.
Kimbrough Stadium, site of the District 10-5A Meet on April 9-10, played host to the Ron McNeill Invitational March 7 for an afternoon where early city supremacy was established and even a city record was broken. That came courtesy of Plano East's Morgan Johnson, who highlighted the Lady Panthers' meet victory by breaking not just her own school record in the pole vault, but setting a new city-wide standard in the event.
Johnson leapt to a 12-07 to garner 10 of East's 175 total points. The Plano West girls placed second (123), while Plano Senior posted fourth (99).
Four of those were first-place marks by the Lady Panthers, including Maggie Becker in the high jump (5-04), Ambria Tisdall in the discus (114-00) and Jordan Welch in the shot put (38-08 3/4). Jackeria Hughes added first in the 200 meters (26.32) while the quartet of Maggie Crossland, Allison Compass, Madison Compass and Ashley Ready picked up top honors in the 1,600 relay.
The Lady Wolves captured the bulk of their points in the distance runs, highlighted by first-place finishes from Valarie Bradley in both the 800 (2:22.34) and 1,600 (5:30.69), and Sage McAdams in the 3,200 (11:53.34).
Plano proved adept in the medium-distance fray, with Christian Coosa scampering to first in the 400 (1:00.46) while Natalie West ran a 47.16 for first in the 300 hurdles.
The slate was a bit more diverse on the boys side of the meet where just five total first-place finishes were mustered in Plano ISD.
That didn't necessarily reflect in the overall totals with West tallying second (113) -- just eight points shy of first-place Jesuit. East was third (84) while Plano finished fifth (46).
West banked on a well-rounded ensemble for 11 finishes in the top four, despite having just two participants win their events -- Jason Stephens in the 200 (22.22) and Robert Kemp in the long jump (22.05). East was led by Chris Ntreh in the 100 (10.84) and Phillip Metcalfe in the 3,200 (10:01.25), both of whom placed first in addition to Plano's Matthew Hall in the 800 (1:58.28).
In the midst of Spring Break, the time off will last just two more days for East, which returns to action Saturday at Lowden Track Complex in Fort Worth for the TCU Relays.
Their female counterparts will host the Plano East Invitational from Kimbrough Stadium at 1 p.m. March 22. Both boys and girls squads from East, West and Plano will be in attendance.

During their regularly scheduled meeting Thursday, Nov. 8, the Haralson County Board of Education recognized the Teachers of the Year from each school and presented them with awards and gifts.
The following teachers were named teachers of the year at their respective schools: Heather Whitton of Tallapoosa Primary School, Kim Vines of West Haralson Elementary School, Coach Charles Rampy of Haralson County Middle School, Jessica Bentley of Haralson County High School, Paula Roberts of Buchanan Elementary School, and Amanda West of Buchanan Primary School. Amanda West was also named District Teacher of the Year and will represent Haralson County at the State Board of Education.
In other business, the board approved a motion to pay for the cost of installing a light at the intersection of Highway 120 and Estavanko Road so that officers directing traffic in the morning will be visible to motorists. The light will cost $3,000 and be paid for with Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax funds.
The board also passed a motion to enter into a partnership agreement with All Star Drivers to provide an after-school drivers education course for high school students. There will be a $299 fee for students who wish to take the course, which will be available after school and on the weekends.
A motion was also approved to enter into a contract with Smart Bus Live, which will equip some of the county school buses with cameras. The cameras will capture film of vehicles illegally passing buses. Violators will be issued a ticket.
The company will outfit between 10 and 30 percent of the bus fleet with these cameras in an effort to prosecute traffic violators and reduce the number of violations, as passing buses when they are loading or unloading children is illegals as well as an extreme safety hazard.
The board also decided to no longer offer health benefits to board members as the cost to both the school system and individual members has gone up.
During executive session, the board approved a motion to enter into a lease agreement with the City of Tallapoosa to use the city's gym located at 261 Robertson Ave. The city will lease the gym to the board for $1 a year for 10 years. The school system will be responsible for maintenance and insurance for the facility.
The board also approved a motion in executive session to sell property the system owns on Business Highway 27 in Buchanan to GENCO Enterprises, LLC for $130,000.
The next Board of Education regular meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Dec. 4.

Watch Buying Momentum in the Coming Week
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The stock market seems to want to defy analysts expecting a pullback.
"I'm holding lots of cash and I don't see many charts that I like. I would like to see things reset a bit," wrote RealMoney contributor James "Rev Shark" De Porre on Friday. "The easiest thing in the world for me to do is to write about why this rally is doomed and how a major turn is going to occur at any moment. That is what I'd like to see happen, but I see no evidence that it will happen right now." In short, he concludes that "support continues to hold."
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, while losing momentum, still managed to drift higher by 33 points, or 0.3%, this past week, hitting 13,000 several times during intraday trading.
Tech and energy stocks were the rally's biggest drivers, with names like Apple(AAPL) , Exxon Mobil(XOM) , Microsoft(MSFT) and General Electric(GE) leading the way.
Some investors are still trying to find value in individual stock picks, while others are holding back and waiting to see whether selling or buying momentum picks up.
According to EPFR Global Fund Data, investors pulled out nearly $6 billion from U.S. equity funds in the past week. Yet, at the same time, data suggest investors are also ramping up risk in some asset classes, including funds involved in mortgage-backed and high-yield bonds.
> > Bull or Bear? Vote in Our Poll
One reason for the slowdown may have been the overall tone of fourth-quarter earnings. Research firm FactSet reports that with almost all of the S&P 500 companies having reported, only 66% reported earnings per share that beat Wall Street estimates, while 33% had EPS that missed consensus. In contrast, 73% of companies have beaten estimates over the past fourth quarters.

There are now two JTs in showbiz.
"Yes, I'm changing my name," Jessica Biel told People.
The 30-year-old "Total Recall" star, who wed Justin Timberlake, 31, on October 19 in a custom pink Giambattista Valli Haute Couture gown, told the magazine she'll still be known as JB professionally.
"[B]ut for life, yes, I think it sounds great," she added. "I think I really won the jackpot of names."
The actress will next appear as Vera Miles in "Hitchcock," which is expected to open in limited theaters on November 23.

Overview of Spokane Valley
Home to more than 90,000 people, Spokane Valley may share part of its name with the area's largest metro area, but this city has a vibe that is all its own. Located between Spokane and beautiful Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Spokane Valley apartments for rent provide the best of Eastern Washington and the Idaho panhandle.
Living in Spokane Valley, WA
Native American tribes that were part of the Salish group were the original inhabitants of the land that would one day become Spokane Valley; and they thrived here on camas root, sweet berries and tasty salmon flesh for thousands of years. The first European settlers who came to the area in the mid 1700s were fur traders, who quickly set up trading posts with the local residents.
While the salmon are not quite as plentiful today as they once were, Spokane Valley continues to thrive and remains a popular area for employment. Some of the top employers in the area include Spokane Public Schools, which has more than 3,000 full time employees, as well as the Fairchild Air Force Base and the Deaconess Medical Center. Residents of Spokane Valley apartments are also minutes away from the educational opportunities available at Gonzaga University and Whitworth University, both located in Spokane.
Spokane Valley Attractions and Special Events
Spokane Valley has a number of fun activities to enjoy year-round. Residents of all ages take advantage of Splash Down Waterpark located in town during the hot summer months, while the skiing and sledding conditions on Mt. Spokane are top-notch during the winter. Fans of Eastern Washington vino can get their fill of local favorite varieties at Knipprath Cellars as well as locally produced port.
During the snowy winter months, Spokane Valley residents can also head to McCarthey Athletic Center to enjoy a game of college hoops from the nationally-ranked Gonzaga men's basketball team.

Description: The SN3 monoclonal antibody reacts with the human CD24 molecule, also known as Heat Stable Antigen (HSA). This 35-50 kDa molecule is anchored in the plasma membrane via phosphatidylinositol and is expressed by erythrocytes, thymocytes, peripheral lymphocytes and myeloid lineage. It has been reported that P-selectin (CD62P) binds to CD24.

I wasn't sure if this belongs here, in theology, or in prayer and praise as I probably will need prayer as I chew on this quote.
I'm reading "Houses that can change the world." Got it free, and have friends planting house churches so I thought I would read it.
I'm not sure I "buy" all it is selling, but this quote has really got me thinking:
"The Bible absolutely does not teach us to say that a holy crowd gathering on a holy day at a holy hour in a holy sanctuary to participate in a holy ritual performed by holy men in holy clothes for a holy fee is a New Testament church."

With more than 10,000 youth swimmers on 78 teams this summer, the Tarheel Swimming Association long ago outgrew any single season-ending championship meet.
These days, four meets give the recreational summer league's swimmers a chance to experience a multi-team, championship-meet atmosphere.
Although the four meets being held this weekend and next in Raleigh and Cary are conducted by Wake County club teams and not the Tarheel Swimming Association, TSA teams are the invited participants.

BREAKING: Busted! Totally Staged and Hilarious North Korean Photos
April 13, 2013 2 Comments
By: Jay
You Saw it First on JaysAnalysis!
Remember – the famous Situation Room Photo is admittedly fake!
Breaking – White House claims North Korea has no Missile Capability!
I can't stop laughing. From the get-go Jay's Analysis called the North Korean theater operations recently occurring as a staged event, pointing out that anything real that happened would be by the machinations of the western establishment itself. Last night I became entranced by North Korean media photo ops and ended up staying up researching these hilarious pictures, getting no sleep. What became evident after several hours of photo analysis was how ridiculous the images are. But what's amazing is not just how absurd the pictures are upon inspection, but how big these images are in the media hype and the total lack of any analysts, journalists or "intelligence agents" to call bullshit. Where are the foreign analysts? Apparently, the system thinks the public is so utterly inept that not even the middle management class of "journalists" and "intellectuals" can figure out that these are completely absurd "threats" insofar as what we see presented.
Business Insider posted a series of images from the Associated Press that purport to be a "Top Secret Rocket Facility" where North Korea launched its supposed satellite. The rest of the media has followed suit, hyping this international threat, arguing that North Korea can "nuke" other nations. But an inspection of these images shows a host of stuff so stupid you can't help but giggle. Furthermore, these images are reminiscent of other more recent comedic mass black ops: the Bin Laden "raid" on his secret "compound" that featured water guns and an old man who is supposedly Bin Laden watching a crappy TV with an old cable box.
The first question that should be asked by people with any brain cells left to rub together is, how does a country that the media says is a "hermit nation" closed off to the West manage to have all these picture perfect photo ops that filter out to all the western media? Just like with Bin Laden, who was wanted in connection to the 1993 bombings, no one can seem to "get inside" North Korea, and "secret videos" have to be shot that "leak" to tabloids. The last few weeks a spate of bizarre videos have surfaced all over the web, the most recent of which is the "slave labor" of North Korean where a small child supposedly dies because troops are busy unloading armaments. Two utterly absurd facts emerge here. First, we can't see anything but what looks like a stuffed jumpsuit used for Halloween decoration in someone's yard. This is supposedly a small child, yet he's wearing adult sized boots? Hilarious. Second, the wording of the source in the Daily Mirror is equally as witty, as it reads like a tenth grader writing a journal:
"A child of around 10 sits dying of starvation by the side of the road while just yards away soldiers load enough rice on to trucks to feed families for weeks.
As the young boy slumps on the grimy kerb in his filthy, oversized army jacket, locals stroll past zombie-style without even glancing in his direction or displaying an ounce of pity for his wretched plight. Read more of this post

Around two years ago, I 'met' Erica Diamond for the first time. By 'met' I really mean met through the web, but today I consider her a great friend. Social media has given us all the opportunity to unite and share our collective ideas on such fascinating platforms such as Twitter.
I admire Erica for many reasons– the fact she has created such an inspiring website for women is empowering. That said, it was also the exact reason why I started my own website. Except, mine celebrates the positive in Hollywood. So often we see the negative out there, and I was ready to spin some love into the blogosphere, thus, the creation of The Joey Parker Movement.

Anyone have any info on the aircrafts that mexico produced? I looked and looked but found nothing.
Yea I know, and I apologize for missun derstanding also. are we cool?
Anyone have any info on the aircrafts that mexico produced? I looked and looked but found nothing.
hey guys can you put some pictures of the mexicanarmy in the 60s70sand80s
cual es el miedo de mexico en armarce. We have no allies in the world what so ever. That is why we should revamp our military into the twenty first century what do we have to lose.
No one likes us and every one hates and want our lands lets be like our ancestors and fight that is the way or our culture are we mexicans or cowards.
That is how the world sees our culture and country as a joke does any one remember that game they played in big brother australia if that didnt piss you off by what they think of us then i dont no what would.
Those hundred 412 hueys is a good start but we need several hundred more. If the country cant have attack helos at least they can have the proper numbers of helicopters to defend and transport our troops in case of a war.
did you not see the game they were playing in big brother australia were they were tossing crap at the mexican flag and doing the sombrero dance in beans. you havent seen it on the news in mexico and the australians were all like we respect your culture and were sorry didnt see it if i can find a link to the video i will put it up.
its not about the show its how the world sees us as a whole im in the US as well but i am a mexican and will always identify myself as only mexican and not an american. I would gladly defect to the mexican army if the US ever attacked mexico in any form at all. I am not committed to the goverment only to my homeland of my kind and our people.
That is why i always put up the idea of mexico arming it self with better tech than they have at the moment we need to show what we are mexicans.
well we have things in common.I consider my self Mexican but legally i'm mexican american and i am prode to be.Because Mexican americans have done alot and still retained there culture like me.I am going to join the marines just like my brother, not to server the goverment but rather the country the US has gave alot to mexican americans and i am thankful but on the other hand the government has treated us like dirt alot of times thats why i respect the land but not the government.I too would defect.
But on te big brother issue i know it wasnt bout the show but the way they showed it and yes let them see us like that but you know what never underestimate mexicans!! cause if the need arises we can get to the top or pretty damn close.which we already are besides the military
Who is Mexico going to fight with?? USA? No chance against those guys... and No reason to fight either, whos left? The central American nations that share borders with Mexico dont have a chance if there is a war. There isnt really a need to make serious military expenditures, Mexican authorities should focus instead on fighting crime and the flow of drugs.
But whatever... Im just a Venezuelan dude that lives in the US.
i am proud to say mexico is not a back wards nation like the rest of the world we have managed to keep our country together and avoided lots of crap like the rest of the world our nation is not perfect but i rather be mexican than any other people in the world.
Be for warned one day we will be a first world country no matter what any one thinks of mexico even the self hateing mexicans should not underestimate our people we are truly one kind and we are a race in my eyes no matter if were short and brown or tall and light skined we are mexicans.
mexico must do something at least to produce there own missiles or something in the army. Mexican army does it have any self propelled artillery like the paladin m 109.

Well Guarandol, Canada is in the same shoes as we are and they certainly have a much better armed military than we do. Who is going to attack them, polar bears? Why should we rely on the US for our defense, when no other country in the world has invaded us as much as them in the past. I realize that we are not at war with them (they are our principal business partner) or anyone else at the time, and that we have no immediate threat to deal with at the present, but as I said before, usually by the time that a threat is immediate, it is already to late to prepare for it. Our country and our military has the obligation to have at least a minimal level of preparation against any eventuality. Another reason why we shouldn't place all our bets on the idea that the US will come to our aid under any circumstance is that there is no reason to believe that they will, and that it will depend on whether it is in their interests at the moment or not. Should we then keep our fingers crossed? Remember, Argentina had a defense agreement with the US and the US gave them the finger when it came to choosing sides back in '82.
Anyway Guarandol, bienvenido.
Come on gentlemen, let's get back on topic here, shall we? I do have one question regarding the FAM's heavy lift capabilities, concerning their helicopters. Since they only have one serviceable Mi-26 Halo out of the original two, plus the four CH-53's that were recently purchased, it seems to me that while buying the four Sea Stallions is somewhat of a step in the right direction, exactly how many hours remain on the aircraft? It just wouldn't be worth the investment if they were only good for 2,000 hours. Are they eyeing anything in particular to augment the CH-53s, besides the possibility of buying more CH-53s from Israel?
