On Microsoft CEO Talk, Ford's Mulally Plays It Cool
If Ford Motor Co. Chief Executive Officer Alan Mulally is feeling any heat from his board of directors to quash speculation that he's angling to become CEO of software giant Microsoft Corp., he didn't show it Thursday evening at the company's holiday party for the automotive press.
Ford's board met Thursday, and Mr. Mulally arrived afterwards at the media party looking trim in his trademark blue blazer. He bantered with reporters about his recent appearance on the Colbert Report to pitch the new Ford Mustang. Comedian Stephen Colbert, in character as a blustery cable news pundit, tried to rattle Mr. Mulally by calling his bailout-taking rivals General Motors Co. and Chrysler Group LLC "bolsheviks," and suggesting that the main reason people bought the Ford Mustang in the 1960s was to "get laid."
The wisecrack about the Mustang did throw Mr. Mulally for a moment, but he deftly parried Mr. Colbert's jabs at GM and Chrysler, saying that Ford had supported the bailouts as the right response to the crisis, even though Ford financed its own turnaround.
Mr. Mulally reminisced about his early days at Ford in 2006 when many in Detroit's media (and many executives at Ford) questioned whether the long-time Boeing Co. executive might be in over his head dealing with the complexities of the car business. Mr. Mulally's reply was to cheerfully remind questioners that a Boeing 777 had many more parts than a car, and it had to stay in the air.
Finally, one of the media gaggle asked Mr. Mulally if he had anything to say about the latest Microsoft rumors.
"I love serving Ford," Mr. Mulally said with a smile, "No change."

Nintendo Power is ceasing publication. In related news, yes, up until now Nintendo Power was still in publication.
Nintendo Power has been published continuously for over 24-years. For most of that time Nintendo itself produced the magazine in-house, but starting in 2007 production was farmed out to another company, Future Publishing. Readership has remained fairly strong, but apparently Nintendo is a giant pain in the ass to deal with so Future Publishing is throwing their hands up and walking away. Nintendo has no plans to revive the magazine themselves.
Between the ages 8 and 14 pretty much the only thing I read (that didn't feature Batman) was Nintendo Power, so this is a sad day for me (and I'm sure plenty of other nerds in their late 20s to early 30s). But hey, enough gloom! Recently somebody put the entire first issue of Nintendo Power online, so hit the jump for a trip down memory lane…
via Ars Technica
Nintendo Power #1 via Eoin Stanley
You can read the entire first issue of Nintendo Power in PDF form right here.
Holy s–t, if any younger folks want to know why us old codgers are nostalgic for 80s gaming, this is why. The games covered in detail by this one magazine — Super Mario 2, The Legend of Zelda, Double Dragon, Contra, Gauntlet, and uh…Wheel of Fortune. Okay, so it wasn't all great. Next issue — Castlevania, Bayou Billy and Bionic Commando!
For those who don't want to wade through an entire kids magazine from 1986 (for shame) here are my five favorite pages from Nintendo Power #1…
Mario 2 was never my favorite, but I bet my opinion would have been different if its box art looked like this.
More insane Mario 2 art. They're at the Olympics…for…some reason? I love how this has obviously been colored in with magic markers.
Pretty much everything about this foldout poster is great. Flying hot dog! Cup full of refreshing mercury! The Bat signal! The guy inexplicably belting a homer with a giant piece of licorice!
Oh Nester — you ignorant little turd.
You heard it here first! Ninjas and Kung-fu Masters are no longer heros [sic] to Japanese players! American born sword and magic games are making one great hit after another in the eastern country of Japan!
Wait a minute…what the f–k…Mike from Growing Pains and D.J. were related?!

Learning More About Skin Care Anti Aging Creams And Lotions
With more research underway surrounding the endocannabinoid system and cannabinoids such as CBD and THC, many new methods for infusing products with cannabinoids are being developed. One of the most intriguing is in using them within skin care products.
Cannabis topicals come in the form of lotion, salves, balms, and oils, all of which have been infused with cannabinoids. They absorb into the skin directly upon application. Topicals have only grown in popularity over the years. In fact, THC and CBD has even been utilized in general cosmetic products and even personal lubricants.
CBD Skin Care in For Eczema
CBD Skin Care Lotion For Stretch Marks
Applying cannabinoids topically will allow them to absorb into the body quite quickly. The relief is also more focused, generally only affecting the specific area where the product was used. On the other hand, smoking or ingesting marijuana affects the entire body, and it can take up to two hours for any effects to be felt.
CBD Skin Care Topicals are only mildly invasive, and they make a strong entryway for those that are curious to dip their toes into the world of medical cannabis. The prospect of smoking or ingestion is quite scary to the uninitiated. External options make a fantastic compromise.
It's also worth noting that topicals are not psychoactive. The endocannabinoid system is activated, and any mind altering properties are blocked from entering the bloodstream. It's worth noting that topical dosages must be quite large. Since the skin of humans absorbs cannabinoids at a low rate, a liberal application is suggested as a workaround.
That said, CBD and CBN can work their way into the skin much easier than THC. They're also more likely to engage the receptors of the CB2 cannabinoids. As such, they have become quite popular for cannabis topical manufacturers. CBD Skin Care Lotions contents have much more hemp than your run of the mill variety of marijuana. Hemp has numerous benefits, included significantly lower toxicity.
CBD oil lotion is also quite popular since there are dual purposes at play. They'll smooth out and even soften the skin of the applied area. Of course, they also allow highly specific use of CBD. It's not uncommon for people to become very adamant that CBD oil Skin Care in For Eczema become a regular part of their lives after trying it for the first time. The FDA isn't keen on any particular health claims being made of course, but it's hard to deny the satisfaction rate of those that have been using CBD topicals thus far.
THC is quite well known, having been included in the conversation about marijuana for quite some time now. CBD has become more prominent as of late thanks to plenty of research and trials however. It has been shown to help prevent pain, anxiety, and even nausea. It also happens to be legal when extracted from industrial hemp. There is still much work to be done towards achieving widespread understanding and use of topical products such as CBD Skin Care in For Eczema , but it's clear that we're many steps closer than ever before.
Anti Aging Creams For Wrinkles For Eczema For Healthy Skin
CBD Skin Care for Psoriasis
A lot if individuals who are turning to cannabis oil creams and CBD oil have become disenchanted with pharmaceuticals, steroid creams, conventional treatments, and self-injection methods. They have been put through the ringer, then a certain person persuaded them to try a CND cram and VOILA, results of varying degrees that were instantaneous.
One of the many side effects associated with conventional treatments, one which seem to be brought up quite often is the thinning of the skin which over time leads to damaged cells and skin weakness. CBD ointment, oils and creams, even if they were not to work, will not cause thinning.
When I use the word miraculous, I am referring to the fact that if you browse through various forums, you will find countless people who experienced positive results almost immediately. Generally, after having had years with minimal and even no results from orthodox treatments.
Although there were those who experienced a complete disappearance of their psoriasis, there we other who experienced various levels of improvement, For example, the psoriasis did not completely disappear, but the itching and inflammation did.
The biggest bit of advice that those who do experiment with homemade CBD creams give to others is that if it seems as if the cream is not working for you, it is probably due to it containing a weak CBD potency. Try using a CBD or THC oil that is stronger.
Eighty percent of those the individuals you will see feedback from claim that their psoriasis symptoms improved after they experimented with CBD and THC oils: redness, flaking, soreness, itching, bleeding, etc.
There are those who experience positive effects after smoking cannabis, however other opt for using THC and those who prefer CBD oils that do not contain THC or even CBD vapes. When it comes to this there are many options to choose from and they are promising!
Yes, you will stumble upon those who claim that they did not see any improvement at all. However they seem to be few and far in between, and generally it is they who also claim to have concocted their own remedies with the use of other oils and herbs. What is confusing is that even if you were to opt for giving it a try to treat psoriasis, there are countless other amateur recipes available.
Two Studies on the use of CBD to Potentially Treat Psoriasis
After browsing through various forums and search engines, here is what I was able to find. There are a few others out there; however it is not my goal to bog your mind down. Here are the studies:
Study Number One: Human Keratinocyte Proliferation is inhibited by Cannabinoids
The results show that even though a circumstantial role may be played by CB receptors in keratinocyte proliferation, there is no significant contribution they make to this process. The results indicate that keratinocyte proliferation is inhibited by cannabinoids, therefore supporting an important role for cannabinoids to help treat psoriasis.
Study Number Two: Topical THC and Anti-Inflammatory Activity
THC that is topically applied can effectively reduce contact allergic inflammation by lowering the pro-inflammatory keratinocyte derived mediators who orchestrate the immune myeloid cell infiltration that is independent from CB1/2 receptors. This offers major implications towards the future development of strategies that can harness cannabinoids as a way of treating inflammatory skin diseases.

Cayman Islands international Mark Ebanks poses for a photo in a Fort Lauderdale Strikers jersey after signing with the North American Soccer League club on October 25, 2013. (Photo courtesy of the Fort Lauderdale Strikers)
FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida – The Fort Lauderdale Strikers announced Friday the signing of Cayman Islands international Mark Ebanks for the remainder of the season.
The forward joins the North American Soccer League (NASL) club from Cayman's Elite SC. He will be evaluated by the team for future considerations within the Strikers organization and other teams owned by Traffic Sports, including Desportivo Brazil.
"On behalf of CONCACAF and as a fellow Caymanian, I congratulate Mark Ebanks on achieving this great opportunity' said CONCACAF President and Cayman Islands Football Association President, Jeffrey Webb. "This is a reminder that opportunities are out there in professional football for talented young players from across the Caribbean if they show the hard work and determination that this game demands"
Ebanks, the first Caymanian to sign with an NASL side, expressed his happiness with the move abroad.
"I'm excited about the opportunity," said the 22-year-old. "I'm looking forward to proving myself and hopefully get a contract with the club and help the team next year."
In World Cup Qualifying for Brazil 2014, Ebanks made five appearances for the Cayman Islands, scoring two goals -- one each against El Salvador and the Dominican Republic.
In 2010, he went overseas to play for Ashford Town (Middlesex) F.C. in England, a member of Division One Central of the Southern League.
"Mark is a very fast, young player, with a lot of potential" said Strikers head coach Günter Kronsteiner. "We look forward to taking a more thorough look at him and evaluating him for the future."
Fort Lauderdale has two games remaining games on its NASL regular-season schedule. The Strikers have a Saturday meeting at Minnesota United FC, before closing out the Fall Season at home against FC Edmonton on November 2.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – With the 2010 Major League Baseball season upon us, four former Yale baseball players will continue their professional careers this spring. Craig Breslow '02 has begun his fifth season on a Major League roster, suiting up for the Oakland Athletics in 2010. Ryan Lavarnway is climbing the ladder in the Red Sox farm system from Class A Greenville to the Class A Advanced Salem (Va.) Red Sox of the Carolina League, and hurlers Brandon Josselyn '09 and Brian Irving '08 will begin 2010 in Class A with the Clinton (Iowa) LumberKings (Seattle Mariners) and Augusta (Ga.) GreenJackets (San Francisco Giants), respectively.
Breslow, a left-handed reliever, has become an established Major League player, finishing second in the American League with 77 appearances out of the bullpen for the Minnesota Twins and Oakland A's last season. The former captain of the Bulldogs went 8-7 with a 3.36 earned run average. He has already made two appearances for Oakland, allowing one hit in one inning of work.
Lavarnway, a catcher and designated hitter, is slated to make his Carolina League debut today as the Salem Red Sox challenge the Potomac Nationals. One of the top hitters in the 145-year history of Yale baseball, Lavarnway swatted a Greenville Drive franchise-record 36 doubles in 2009 and tied the club home run mark with 21 roundtrippers. Both numbers represented the third-most overall in the South Atlantic League last season. The 2007 NCAA Batting Champion (.467) also set Greenville records for a right-handed batter with 87 runs batted in, the second-most RBI in the league in 2009, and 218 total bases. Lavarnway batted .285 in the regular season and ranks among the all-time leaders for the Drive with a .540 slugging percentage. The owner of a Yale and Ivy League record 23-game hitting streak, Lavarnway hit safely in 14 consecutive games for the Drive in May. Thanks in large part to Lavarnway's big bat, the Drive continued into the postseason against the top-seeded Asheville Tourists (Colorado Rockies).
2009 Ivy League Pitcher of the Year Brandon Josselyn, who was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in June, was called up from the Appalachian Rookie League after just eight appearances with the Pulaski (Va.) Mariners, and quickly became one of the most reliable arms in the bullpen for the Class-A Clinton (Iowa) LumberKings. Though his split season did not allow him to qualify as an official "league leader", Josselyn was among the best in the Midwest League with a miniscule 0.75 earned run average in 24 innings of work. The righty hurler surrendered just two earned runs in that time while amassing 18 strikeouts and three saves. Batters managed a paltry .177 batting average against Josselyn. He will contend for the closer role in his first full professional season as the LumberKings begin their season today against the Peoria Chiefs (Chicago Cubs).
Brian Irving '08, a member of the San Francisco Giants organization, completed his first full season in 2009 in the Arizona Rookie League. The ace of the 2008 Yale staff has blown away opposing hitters, piling up 37 strikeouts in 22.2 innings of work. In his final appearance of the season, Irving struck out six batters in 2.1 innings on the hill to improve his record in the AZL to 4-1. He finished 2009 with a 1.19 ERA and a .169 opponents' batting average. Irving will work out the bullpen as the GreenJackets open their season today against the Greensboro (N.C.) Grasshoppers (Florida Marlins).
"These players have all worked incredibly hard to get where they are today," said John Stuper, Yale's Mazzuto Family Head Coach for Baseball. "They are a great source of pride for me and for our program and University."
Breslow, Lavarnway, Josselyn and Irving represent four of the 26 Yale baseball players to be drafted or sign professional contracts during Stuper's 18-year career in the dugout at Yale Field. At least one Bulldog has been drafted in each of the last five seasons.

Soft Trainers ECCO Black Womens 1 Nubuck Practise
This unit is part of The Institute of Form, Theory and History and has a special focus on the fundamental aspects of the architectural practice: design methods and formats, freehand drawing, workshop practices and computer-aided design. The unit´s main responsibility is the first year curriculum of the Architecture Program. In addition it gives courses and diploma supervision at Master level.
The first year is a comprehensive introduction to the five and a half year Master Program at AHO. The students are faced with the full complexity of the field, they are encouraged to pursue a personal approach to the profession and to establish an individual standpoint. A broad and multifaceted teaching method includes everything from abstract and theoretical studies to concrete investigations of program, site and already built structures. A thorough investigation of materials and building technology are core to all assignments. The students have to tackle different scales, from 1:1 to large-scale structures.
Theory and history are fully integrated in the studio-based education and gives the students a comprehensive introduction to the methods, terminology and tools of the profession. Separate classes are given in Material Technology, Examen Philosophicum and Architecture History, all interwoven with the studio assignments.
Experienced-based knowledge is mainly taught in studio through individual assignments, in addition to group assignments, seminars, exercises, workshops, readings and lectures. Assignments can lasts for a day, a week or months. There are two excursions during the year, one in the fall semester as part of the studio, one in the spring semester as part of the classes in freehand drawing and Architecture History.
The learning objective for the freehand drawing classes in the introductory year at AHO is twofold. First, to give the students basic skills and knowledge through analytical and intuitive exercises including introduction to different tools, techniques, paper types, colour, dry and wet media and basic representational techniques. Croquis drawing and life drawing is also a part of the curriculum. Through lectures and exercises the students learn to make use of freehand drawing in the practice of both Art and Architecture.
The second and most important part is the application of the generative and communicative aspects of freehand drawing on to the practice of Architecture. This is pursued through individual sketchbooks, through interaction between freehand drawing and computer-aided design and through the use of freehand drawing in an exploratory and notational way. The teaching progresses from targeted exercises in the beginning of the year to more personal and expressive studies at the end.
The unit offers two elective courses in freehand drawing at the Master level.

Plug & Turn review:
I am always interested in new ideas and so I decided to give this product a try. I had all the usual misgivings about whether it will work or not - Will it break? Will it get clogged by sand? Will it make me lose contact/control of the board? etc. etc.. but I still approached it with an open mind since it seemed like a nice idea.
I have tried the Plug & Turn pad with 2 different boards - a Spleene Zone (159cm) and a Firewire Taj 5-11. Only one rotating strap/pad is really necessary and I placed this on the forward strap position. From my testing over the past 6 months in every type of condition imaginable I have the following comments:
(Not to mix subjects, but I confess that I enjoy riding strapless as much as possible, but I would say 30% of the time I am still riding strapped (usually on the Zone, occasionally on the Firewire) when the water is super choppy but still some nice waves to be had. I ride my Firewire strapless 95% of the time and I have other surfboard shapes - that do not have inserts - as well depending on the conditions. I have been riding for 11 years and riding directionals for almost 5 years. Style preference: WAVES!)
The Plug & Turn works fine on the Firewire and I can easily see myself using it on that board when I want straps in really big but messy waves, or when the wind is so strong that it literally blows the Firewire off my feet - although I much prefer the Firewire board strapless in general. I have been using the Plug & Turn extensively on the Spleene Zone and I have now decided to keep it on that board permanently because I like it so much and it is working with no mechanical problems.
The advantage of the rotating strap is that it allows you to switch stance and have perfect foot position in either direction. This comment applies especially to smaller boards where changes in foot position are minimal. Just as with standard straps the placement of the inserts is really critical to optimize strap position/board trim. I normally have my front strap "ducked out" and do not like the in-line strap position as much - so the Plug & Turn allows me to "duck" or square my stance effortlessly anytime I want, on either port or starboard tack.
Also, perhaps most advantageous for me, is the ability to switch stance comfortably and avoid really long toe-side tacks when trying to go upwind. I love riding toe-side, but I can usually gain several degrees of headway when riding heel-side…so it's really nice when I have just enjoyed a long down-the-line ride and want to get back upwind comfortably.
The other nice thing about the Plug & Turn is that you can really fine tune the fore/aft position because there are more options for locating the plate on a typical board that only has a few insert options.
Disadvantages? NONE… To be honest I could not come up with any disadvantages to this product. Most people don't even notice it unless I point it out to them.
The rotating movement of the pad works very easily - it turns when you want it to by taking slight pressure off your foot, and it does not rotate inadvertently or cause any accidental change of stance. I have jumped and landed hard with this product and it has held up with no problems. I have dragged it thru fine and coarse sand and have never had a problem with the plate jamming.
The pad and plate are quite light and there is no significant weight issue. I have been using a Dakine X-lace strap with the Plug & Turn and that works fine. I think any simple strap with wide webbing (for 2x screw mounting at each end) will work fine.
The pad comes with everything you need to install it, except for the 2x screws which will attach it to your board inserts. You may need to use a different length of screw to match the thickness of the plate/depth of inserts…but that's a simple problem. It might take a little time to figure out the exact position you want the pad in especially if the original inserts are placed wrong. But that is a simple problem as well.
If anyone has any questions I'd be happy to respond.
Good winds and waves to all.

Coveside closed for the season on October 17, and after our annual "work weekend" with friends to winterize the inn, we took a short (two-night) trip to Bar Harbor for some R&R. We had hoped to hike trails in Acadia National Park and reacquaint ourselves with a region we haven't had the chance to visit since we opened the bed and breakfast 13 years ago. The weather was pretty disappointing, however — steady rain during our only full day, and fog on our final morning. We did manage a short (4 mile) hike up Gorham Mountain, where we had a brief aerial view of the coastline before the fog returned.
When we reached the top it looked like the fog was about the clear; but, alas, it soon returned with a vengeance.
We stayed at a spectacular B&B in Bar Harbor — the Bass Cottage Inn. Located in a quiet neighborhood of grand old "cottages," it is just a short walk to the waterfront and the town's many shops and restaurants. The innkeepers, Jeff and Teri Anderholm, have lovingly restored the hundred-year-old summer home to its former grandeur. Their hospitality and good taste permeate the place; the public spaces and guest rooms (some with fireplaces and water views) are both elegant and welcoming; and the breakfasts were excellent. The quiet location and peaceful charm of this inn is a welcome antidote to the hurlyburly of Bar Harbor. Also highly recommended (by us, and by reports on Trip Advisor) are the two restaurants we visited for dinner: Mache Bistro and Town Hill Bistro.

Levine Finishes Third; Bieszard Qualifies Twice
PHILADELPHIA – The Yale men's track and field began competition on Saturday at the Ivy League Heptagonal Championships hosted by Penn. The day was mostly devoted to preliminaries in the running events, with only a handful of finals. The Bulldogs currently sit in sixth place with six points thanks to junior Mike Levine's third-place result in the hammer throw. Princeton leads the pack with 52 points.
Levine, who will defend his conference title in the discus tomorrow, threw for a distance of 58.11m (190'08"), .60m short of the PR he hit last weekend. He was bested only by Princeton's US Olympic Trials qualifier Conor McCullough and Harvard's Ben Glauser.
Sophomore Paul Chandler equaled his personal best in the pole vault with a leap of 4.65m (15'03"). Despite clearing the same height as the fourth-place finisher, Chandler fell to eighth place on the basis of faults.
In other field events, sophomore Clifford Van Meter took 11th in the javelin throw (48.13m – 157'11") and junior Tommy Winger did the same in the long jump (6.15m – 20'02.5").
Senior Matthew Bieszard was the Elis' star on the track, qualifying for the finals in two events. The team captain was the top overall qualifier in the 400-meter dash, recording a PR of 47.93 and setting up a rematch tomorrow against Harvard's Tom Hopkins. Hopkins narrowly edged out Bieszard for the win at indoor Heps two months ago. Bieszard also won his heat in the 200-meter dash (22.07) and qualified in fourth overall – right behind Hopkins.
Sophomore Daniel Jones had a near miss in the 100-meter dash, finishing one spot away from qualifying in ninth. Jones ran a personal record of 10.89, and was .05 seconds behind away from nabbing the eighth spot. Freshman Daniel Kemp was 11th in the 110-meter high hurdles (15.73).
In a stacked field in the 800-meter run, the top thirteen finishers all came in ahead of the IC4A qualifying standard. Sophomore James Shirvell was the last to do so, with a PR of 1:51.14. Senior Charlie Jaeger was 22nd in 1:54.00.
Senior Julian Sheinbaum was the Bulldogs' highlight in the 1500-meter run, posting an impressive time (13th – 3:55.35) in only his second race since January and likely the last of his Yale career. Freshman Jacob Sandry was right behind (14th – 3:57.66).
In the only running final of the day, juniors Matthew Thwaites (31:05.30) and Kevin Lunn (31:18.56) placed 12th and 15th, respectively, in the 10,000-meter run. Both will compete in the same race at next week's IC4A Championships.
Competition resumes tomorrow in the field events at 11:00 a.m. and in the running events at 11:50 a.m and the final gun goes off at 4:30 p.m. Full results will be listed on www.yalebulldogs.com.

It's a fact: Kim Fields is pregnant!
The 44-year-old actress, who starred as the cute roller-skating Tootie in the '80s sitcom "The Facts of Life," is expecting her second son with her husband of more than five years, Christopher Morgan. The new baby will join big brother Sebastian, 6.
Fields revealed the news to the women of "The Real" while filming an episode that will air next week. She even disclosed what the little guy will be called: Quincy Xavier.
"It was planned," Fields said. "We've actually been trying for a couple years. We had gotten pregnant twice and [miscarried]. Chris and I were very blessed to really have one another, to have our family and friends and our God to really get us through that."
At first, Fields explained, she suspected the symptoms were related to something else.
"Funny enough, for a minute I thought I was getting pre-menopausal cause certain things were starting to be irregular and then other symptoms started — my memory and I was clumsier than normal, which I couldn't even believe was possible. Then our son got sick with a stomach virus and I caught it," she said. "Chris said, 'No, babe, you're a little sicker than Sebastian. You need to go and get that checked out.' And I said, 'Okay.' They tested me and said, 'Oh honey, you're not dehydrated. You're two months pregnant.'"

To name some, your kitchen sink might be made from copper, cast iron, fireclay, granite, stainless steel or vitreous china. From among these materials, the stainless steel has start off as the most popular measure for new kitchen sink installations while cast iron prevails the best measure for a colored finish.
When picking a kitchen sink you should be certain that it fits. call to mind the kitchen sink is limited by the size of your counter top and cabinet. To establish the size of your cabinet take off measuring from under the existing sink or choice where your new sink will be designated, choice beginning from left to right from the outside edge up to the other outside edge. After finding out your cabinet size, give an allowance of two to 3 inches on both sides. These additional inches are meant for the mounting hardware.
Lastly, you should in addition think about the attribute that are accesible for your sink. The attribute that each sink will have will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. For example, a spillway feature is mostly accesible for two and 3 bowl sinks. Since the spillway is reduce than the sides of the sinks the overflowing water will just go from one bowl to the following.
The apron sinks are for those who may want to have a conventional farmhouse look on the kitchen while the tile-in or tile-edge is meant to mount flash for a tiled surface. These sinks are also accesible as a single bowl, two bowl and 3 bowl models. The bowls can either be deep or shallow depending on your options.

Tim Masters was a 15-year-old sophomore at Fort Collins High School when he spotted something that didn't look real on his way to his bus stop.
He walked up to within six feet of the woman's body that lay on her back in a field about 100 feet from the 3800 block of South Landings Drive. Her bra, blouse and black coat had been pushed up above her breasts; her panties and bluejeans had been pulled down to her knees.
It was also only 100 feet from the trailer where Masters lived with his father. To Masters, it looked more like a mannequin. It was very real though.
It was the body of 37-year-old Peggy Lee Hettrick.
Hettrick was a college dropout and aspiring writer who was known for wearing fanciful hats while she worked as manager of the accessories department in the old Fashion Bar clothing store. An avid cook, she packed lunches of shrimp and avocado. She was writing a book. Her half-written, neatly typed novel about diamond smugglers was in a drawer in her apartment.

RETAIL/WHOLESALE: Auto Recyclers LLC
- April 30, 2009
- |
Trash has become a treasure for Paul Palma, owner of Auto Recyclers LLC. He has found a market for those soda cans and used printer paper others might toss away.
His company is named Auto Recyclers, but recycling vehicle parts now is a small part of his business. It is, however, how Palma got started.
While working as a mechanic, Palma visited junkyards in search of used parts. While he liked the good deals, he didn't like the mess or the time it took to locate and extract a part.
He conceived the idea of an indoor "junkyard" where discarded vehicles could be dismantled and then their parts could be tested, inventoried and stored. Palma and his wife, Marla, opened their first indoor junkyard in 2004 in a former Chevy dealership just a block from Winchester's historic district.
"Everybody told us we were crazy. 'It'll never work. You can't run an indoor salvage yard,' " recalls Palma. "If there's a motivator, tell me it won't work, and I'll make it work."
Palma soon realized he'd underestimated the space needed to store auto parts and began looking for a warehouse. He eventually purchased a brown-field property in Buena Vista in Rockbridge County and set about rehabbing the site. The Buena Vista warehouse opened in January 2008 and now is the headquarters for Auto Recyclers, which continues to operate in Winchester.
The business has evolved from its original concept as Palma discovered that many customers were looking for a place to sell other recyclables, like plastic bottles, cans and paper. "We found out there was good money to be made in recycling," he says.
Ultimately, he expanded his business to offer a curbside recycling program for residents in Buena Vista and Lexington. Collected items like paper, glass and plastics are sold to mills that recycle them.
Palma is now looking to expand his business again. He's planning to purchase another warehouse site in Southwest Virginia, and he might branch out into solid waste.

Damon Coleman's defense lifts Holy Trinity in CHSAA semifinal
On defense, Damon Coleman doesn't just stalk his prey. He waits for a sign of weakness, then strikes.
Holy Trinity's senior guard has hands and feet so quick that opponents are often left empty-handed and bewildered. Coleman made six steals, including a couple of open-court beauties, and got his hands on numerous other passes and dribbles in No. 2 Holy Trinity's 59-40 victory over No. 3 St. Anthony's Sunday in a CHSAA semifinal at LIU Post.
"My quick hands are God-given. I don't work on that," said Coleman, who scored 21 points. "But I work with a trainer on my quick feet. On defense, we like to pressure the ball and get into transition."
The Titans (19-6), who will face No. 4 Chaminade for the CHSAA championship Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. at Hofstra, were a little sluggish early, going scoreless for more than four minutes. But Coleman got them going in the second quarter with some sleight of hand and some slick of feet.
He turned a steal into a layup and three-point play. Moments later, his driving scoop shot keyed an 11-1 run that forged a 26-18 halftime lead. Coleman sliced through traffic for another three-point play and made a shake-and-bake, pull-up jumper and a deflating steal as Holy Trinity built a 40-30 lead after three.
St. Anthony's (12-12) came to life early in the fourth. Nigel Carter (16 points) sparked the rally with a slick spin move. Anfernee Casimir (13 points) dunked on the break and followed with a pull-up jumper that made it 40-36 with 5:36 left. Then it was Coleman with two more steals, a pair of free throws, a nifty layup and an exclamation-point, coast-to-coast drive. Isaiah Rowe contributed seven of his 16 points in the fourth as Holy Trinity finished the game on a rousing 19-4 run.
"We build our whole program around ball pressure," Titans coach Joe Conefry said. "Our defense in the fourth quarter won it. Damon is the key to our team. He's the player who makes it happen. I put it in his hands and he took us home."

November 21, 2003
LOS ANGELES — Last Thursday morning, a team of Anderson marketing students left LAX bound for the chilly plains of Minnesota to compete in the Elite Eight Brand Management Challenge — a national competition pitting eight of the nation's top marketing programs against each other.
Now in its third year, the Elite Eight was the brainchild of students at the University of Minnesota's Carlson School of Management. Anderson, Kellogg, Wharton, Haas, Fuqua, Michigan, Indiana, and Carlson have competed in the event since its inception in 2001. The event was sponsored this year by General Mills, 3M, Multifoods, Fallon, Phillip Morris, and Carlson Hospitality Worldwide.
The team consisted of second-years Natasha Crain and Glenn Oyoung and first-years Scott Judd, Alice Keh, and Rosie O'Neill. The team was presented with the case Thursday night and worked feverishly to meet the Saturday 7:30 a.m. deadline - getting just under four hours of sleep over the course of 36 hours and in the process bringing home 1st place for UCLA Anderson.
This year's case focused on the Brand & Asset Protection (B&AP) group within 3M's Safety and Security Systems Division. Teams were asked to develop a comprehensive brand management strategy for the newly formed B&AP group, whose products are focused on preventing counterfeiting.
Unlike past cases which have focused on consumer packaged goods, this year's case was selected because it challenged teams to think of brand management from a business-to-business perspective.
Adding to the challenge was the fact that the case writers, Carlson full-time students, worked with 3M to provide a data set that was intentionally left incomplete to spur creativity in the competition. Crain, who participated in the competition last year, commented "while last year's case was challenging, the nature of the business we were asked to analyze this year forced us to come up with even more creative analyses and solutions." Oyoung agreed, saying "this case was extremely tough to crack. It really forced us to draw on all the concepts we learned in marketing at Anderson."
After making an oral presentation at noon on Saturday, the UCLA Anderson team was congratulated on formulating an analyses and recommendations that were both comprehensive and creative. In particular, judges applauded the team's eleventh-hour attempt to collect information on consumer attitudes towards counterfeiting via an online survey sent to all full-time Anderson students. The team was surprised by the overwhelming support of the school — by 11 p.m. Pacific time over 150 students had completed the ten-minute survey.
"The team was really amazed that so many of our friends and classmates had taken the time to help us represent the school," said Judd. Judges were also particularly impressed with the creative promotion strategy and ad work that the team had been able to put together. "Whoever did the ad work, we have a place for you downstairs" joked one of the judges from Fallon, a leading advertising firm based in Minneapolis. The panel of judges also included high-ranking executives from 3M.
When asked to comment on the overall experience, team members unanimously agreed that it was one of the best experiences of their MBA careers.
"The greatest thing about the case competition was our team collaboration. Even though we were all working on just a few hours sleep, there was never a tense moment — we were laughing and having fun the entire time!" said O'Neill. Keh agreed, saying "the weekend was extremely rewarding — it was better than I had imagined." "We had great leadership and vision, especially from the second-years, which no doubt contributed to the end result. My involvement in this case competition reminded me that I have so much to learn," she added.
In addition to the respect of their peers (and cherished bragging rights), the team took home a trophy for the school's display case and a cash prize of ten thousand dollars. Michigan placed 2nd and Kellogg placed 3rd.
Will the team do it again next year?
"I'm graduating," said Oyoung, "so I'm off the hook. But coming back and getting congratulated by everyone is really nice and it shows that this is truly a win for all of Anderson, not just the five of us. I hope that next year the first-years have it in them to go back and show everyone at Elite Eight that Anderson is really a force to be reckoned with in marketing." After all, noted Crain, "things like this help build the Anderson brand."

It's not all sad geeky database type stuff here you know. Sometimes, I just want to kick back and watch a movie.
For some ( apparently legal) reasons, stuff like DVD and Flash doesn't work on Ubuntu out of the box.
To access a veritable cornucopia of goodies, you need to do the following :
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
Additionally, if you want to be able to access a DVD's menu, you'll need the totem-xine package :
sudo apt-get install totem-xine
Full details can be found in the Ubuntu Community Documentation on Restricted Extras – which is how they refer to this stuff.
I thought it was worth a post here because it's something I stumbled across and, speaking to fellow Ubuntu ingenues it seems that it's one of those things that isn't particularly well publicised.

Bird ringing
Bird ringing in Britain and Ireland is organised and co-ordinated by the British Trust for Ornithology. A network of over 2,400 highly-trained and licensed volunteers currently ring over 800,000 birds every year.
Ringing helps investigate how long birds live and when and where they move, which is vital information for bird conservation. Placing a light, uniquely numbered ring around a bird's leg is a reliable and harmless method of identifying birds as individuals. Some projects use colour rings to allow identification without catching birds.
Why are there some rings with Brit Museum on them?
Historically, the British Trust for Ornithology has used the address Brit Museum NH, London, SW7. This refers to the Natural History Museum in South Kensington, London and not the British Museum, which does not have any involvement in bird-ringing. This address was used because the words London and Museum are easily recognisable, even to those who do not speak English.

First of all, a belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Christmas weekend with family and friends.
With the new year comes a new Congress, the 112th, which officially began Jan. 5. As the real business at hand gets cranked up, there is a good bit to report.
Lots of folks have asked about our local offices. Our first office will be in Rock Hill, on Ebenezer Road. This was a fairly simple decision, as more than 50 percent of the District 5 population lives within 20 miles of there.
