Skip to comments.Palestinian Scholar Edward W. Said Dies
Posted on 09/25/2003 8:11:48 AM PDT by Alter Kaker
NEW YORK -- Edward W. Said, a Columbia University professor, literary critic and leading spokesman in the United States for the Palestinian cause, has died, his editor at Knopf publishers said Thursday. He was 67.
Said died at a New York hospital, said editor Shelly Wanger. He had suffered from leukemia at least since the early 1990s.
(Excerpt) Read more at newsday.com ...
Or did he just tell his people's children that suicide/homicide is the only option?
He has nothing more to say.
He incited anti-Semitic violence, he worked hard all his life to degrade and politicize American academia, he caused a lot of pain and damage in his career.
I'm sorry to say it, but we really are much better off without him.
Yes, I know. Just feeling a little goofy this morning.
FRIENDS OF the fabled writer Gore Vidal are sympathizing. His companion of more than 50 years, the charming Howard Austin, died in Los Angeles Monday night. Gore says there will be no ceremony until someday when he and Howard are both laid to rest in Washington's Rock Creek Cemetery near the monument to Henry Adams.
I can't figure out whether this is ghoulish (keep him on ice boys) or egotistical (he's nothing without me). Let's just chalk it up to the process of a diseased mind.
Is that what they said about Said or is that what Said said?
I don't think even Arafat could brainwash students like some these professors here have been able to do. My brother-in-law was a Pro-Israel conservative Republican before going to UofI and then only three weeks into it he had a pro-Palestinian opinion that that Israelis were the oppressors. He refused to listen to anyone else's opinions about it except for his instuctor's.
I am sure the Israelis have injected him with that... stuff. And now Mossad simply killed him in the hospital. Belgian courts will shortly charge Sharon for personally murdering Said.
The Romans would have brought them together in death, but in a rather different way.
It's good he's dead. Does that work?
Why should I pretend to mourn? The man was niether a "Palestinian" nor a "scholar". He was born in Cairo and grew up there; and then he invented a whole new persona for himself. Was Goebbels a "scholar" too?
Works for me. :-)
Edward Said throwing rocks at the IDF.
"The West! What a fragile Reed!" read our churlish turban-head
It's good he's dead. Does that work?
Quote of the Month!
The university one, or next in line at the undertakers???
"People who live in glass houses...
"Well-known Palestinian American academic, Edward Said, has embroiled himself in further controversy regarding his conduct. Late last year, a storm brewed up over the revelations produced by Justus Reid Weiner that Said had systematically mis-represented himself for several decades as a Palestinian refugee forcibly evicted by Israel, when in fact he spent an affluent childhood in Cairo.
"Said has described Weiners findings as a tissue of lies, yet implicitly conceded their accuracy in the corrected version that now appears in his own memoir, Out of Place."
'Nuf Said.
He would have wanted it that way . . . . or somethin'.
It's the same guy, except that his book was only a best-seller on campus, thankfully.
Said was born in Egypt, I believe. Even in death, he continues to lie.

RoleService Class
Enables access to the ASP.NET role provider as a WCF Web service.
Assembly: System.Web.Extensions (in System.Web.Extensions.dll)
[ServiceBehaviorAttribute(Namespace = "http://asp.net/ApplicationServices/v200", InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.Single, ConcurrencyMode = ConcurrencyMode.Multiple)] [AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsAttribute(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Required)] [ServiceContractAttribute(Namespace = "http://asp.net/ApplicationServices/v200")] public class RoleService
The RoleService type exposes the following members.
|Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
|Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
|Returns all the roles for the logged-in user.
|Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
|Determines whether the logged-in user belongs to the specified role.
|Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
|Occurs when a RoleService instance determines which role provider to use for checking the user's roles.
The RoleService object enables you to read a user's roles through a Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) service. To use the role service, you must enable the role service on a Web server and then connect a WCF-compatible client application to the Web service. For information about how to configure the role service, see How to: Enable the WCF Role Service.
The user must be authenticated to read the user's roles. The role service works with any kind of ASP.NET authentication. For information about how to log users in through a WCF service, see Windows Communication Foundation Authentication Service Overview.
The RoleService class exposes two methods that should be accessed only through a WCF service: the GetRolesForCurrentUser method and the IsCurrentUserInRole method. The GetRolesForCurrentUser method returns all the roles for the logged-in user. The IsCurrentUserInRole method determines whether the user is in a specified role.
The RoleService object raises the SelectingProvider event. You create an event handler for the SelectingProvider event to select which role provider to use at run time.
For an example of how to use the WCF role service from a console application, see Walkthrough: Using ASP.NET Application Services.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2

ATLANTA -- Gov. Nathan Deal today announced the University of Georgia will join in the efforts of awarding low-income students through the state's new needs-based REACHScholarship program.
UGA will match the REACH (Realizing Educational Achievement Can Happen)Scholarship award for any REACH scholars that are accepted to and enroll at the university.
This announcement makes UGA the second state school to make this commitment since this week's launch of the scholarship, the first being Georgia Tech.
"It is imperative that our state's students have the opportunity to achieve higher education regardless of their family's income," said Deal.
REACH Scholars will be selected in middle school and will sign a contract to maintain a certain grade point average, remain free of crime, drugs and behavior issues and meet with a volunteer mentor until they graduate from high school.
Their parents or guardians will sign a contract to support their student through their education.
Students meeting the requirements will receive a renewable yearly tuition scholarship of $2,500 to be used at any HOPE eligible institution.
UGA's announcement today commits it to matching the first-year awards.

What can I say...oranges and cranberries are like peanut butter and jelly they are just meant to go together! I made this smoothie for dinner tonight. The only problem I ran into was no ice. I thought about going out and gathering some icy snow however... I will definitely make this again however; I think I will cut the honey back by half as I really love the twang of a good cranberry. Thanks for posting Syd. Made and reviewed for the 36th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.
LoVED, LOveD, LOOOved it...I liked this as written, also with a nanna added and then also have been using it (in place of soy or nut milk) in my green drinks which makes them X-TRA, extra special ...(I use about 1 cup to about 6 cups of spinach or kale ...something like that)...L-O-V-E I-T-thanks Sydney Mike...TOP TO MY FAVS. LIST !!!
Neither the flavor of oranges nor the cranberries were jumping out at me, so I added a banana and it was DELISH! I love the walnuts!!!! I used agave instead of honey. Nice drink! Made for VEG*N SWAP.

I am a victim of First Capital Cons/U.S. Guardian.
I did not know of First Capital Cons, until my checks started bouncing on my NEW checking account. I do not know who these people are or where they even received my information. I filed a unauthorized EFT form with my bank on 8-29-02. Today is 10-28-02 and they just informed me today that they denied the refund to my account, and there is nothing they can do. So here I am filing a "ripoff" report.

Melé's back at it; Bastille's "Things We Lost In The Fire" is serious business, and somehow Melé finds a way to turn it into a sub-low funky number, hitting us consistently with those melodic basslines. We're not sure if his Digital Soundboy crew is rubbing off on him, but check the proper dub-wise breakdown in the middle before digging back into the funky stylings. No set word on release as of yet, but this one is fierce.

FoodFacts.com wants to ask everyone in our community to think about how many ways they can include celery and artichokes in their recipes. We can think of more than a few. Celery can add great crunch and texture to a variety of salads, adds flavor to soups and stews, and can even be spread with peanut butter for a wholesome treat. Artichokes aren't simply a great side dish, they work well in recipes for chicken and fish, can be incorporated into pasta, and can even add a mild, interesting flavor to dips and spreads. We're sure you can all think of more – and after the research we learned of today, we all should!
Celery, artichokes, and herbs, especially Mexican oregano, all contain apigenin and luteolin, flavonoids that kill human pancreatic cancer cells in the lab by inhibiting an important enzyme, according to two new University of Illinois studies.
"Apigenin alone induced cell death in two aggressive human pancreatic cancer cell lines. But we received the best results when we pre-treated cancer cells with apigenin for 24 hours, then applied the chemotherapeutic drug gemcitabine for 36 hours," said Elvira de Mejia, a U of I professor of food chemistry and food toxicology.
Pancreatic cancer is a very aggressive cancer, and there are few early symptoms, meaning that the disease is often not found before it has spread. It is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths, with a five-year survival rate of only 6 percent, she said.
The scientists found that apigenin inhibited an enzyme called glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), which led to a decrease in the production of anti-apoptotic genes in the pancreatic cancer cells. Apoptosis means that the cancer cell self-destructs because its DNA has been damaged.
In one of the cancer cell lines, the percentage of cells undergoing apoptosis went from 8.4 percent in cells that had not been treated with the flavonoid to 43.8 percent in cells that had been treated. In this case, no chemotherapy drug had been added.
Pancreatic cancer patients would probably not be able to eat enough flavonoid-rich foods to raise blood plasma levels of the flavonoid to an effective level. But scientists could design drugs that would achieve those concentrations, de Mejia said.
And prevention of this frightening disease is another story. "If you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables throughout your life, you'll have chronic exposure to these bioactive flavonoids, which would certainly help to reduce the risk of cancer," she noted.
FoodFacts.com is so pleased by the idea that flavonoids found in natural food sources may help scientists design effective treatments for pancreatic cancer. We're also very pleased with the concept that eating vegetables that contain them throughout our lives will help reduce our risk for cancer. So let's all be aware of exactly what it can mean to our health and well-being to consciously include more celery, artichokes, and herbs in our diets!

Henry County Sheriff's deputies say around 6 p.m, they received a call from Fort Gaines, Georgia police asking for help in a high speed chase.
Police reportedly tried to pull over the suspects for a traffic violation.
When the vehicle wrecked, one of the suspects fled into a wooded area.
"We think he's probably living in that area, is the reason he came back to that area, he's not dangerous it was just, he ran because he was in possession of the drugs, he's not known to be armed or dangerous," says Henry County Sheriff Will Maddox.
The other suspect was arrested and taken back to Fort Gaines to face other charges there.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
A salesman selling something else during a promotion issued me a voucher for a free vacation during his presentation. I called the number to verify my trip and was asked for my credit card number. She said that I would need a valid credit card to be eligible for the trip and that was the only reason she needed it.
The representative assured me that the card number would not be used until I actually confirmed reservations, which I could not do until the company sent me a package with details in the mail.
I NEVER received a package of anything in the mail. When I called the same number to ask why, I was told to call another number. For days no one answered at this number, just a machine telling the office hours--which lied obviously.
Anyway, I just gave up and decided that I would see what happened. The next month, my credit card was charged $99 with no explanation as to what the charges were.
When I called Mini Vacations, I either reached a machine or an extremely rude person who told me they did not know what the charge was and to let my credit card company handle it if I didn't want to pay it.
In other words, there was nothing they could do about it. I find it very strange that a company can charge you $99 and not have any records of charging you. I have spoken to reps from Mini Vacations 8 times now, and each time someone promises to look into it and call me back. I have yet to hear from a representative, and have instead contacted my lawyer to look into it. The fact that the company still operates is beyond belief. After reading all of these reports, I am sadly disappointed that we have no more protection against blatant scams.
Gillham, Arkansas
NOTE: Rip-off Report launched a complete investigation on this particular situation and found that Mini Vacations had no control over promises another company makes when marketing their vacation coupons. Even though Mini Vacations is not responsible for another company's actions, they have been giving FULL refunds to anyone who has contacted them, and has even given more than they should have in the name of good customer service

Steer made many visits to Walberswick in Suffolk, where he had friends. He completed a number of paintings of the beach there that are among the most authentically Impressionist works produced in Britain. Here he captures the rich warmth of late afternoon sunlight but, unlike the French Impressionist Monet, he was just as interested in the figures as in their setting. Steer has reworked the dashed, broken colour of the paint surface extensively. The two girls were originally holding hands, and in their shadow they still are. This kind of picture was seen as uncompromisingly avant-garde. One critic in 1892 even described such works at the New English Art Club exhibition as 'evil'.

Solutions for Chapter 6
The following figure shows the force applied on the box in different directions.
Here, is the force acting on the blocks and is the velocity of the blocks.
The work done on the block is expressed as follows:
Here, is the magnitude of the force, is the displacement, and is the angle made by the force with the horizontal.
The figure A shows that the force is applied slantwise, therefore the component of the force that causes the motion is. The direction of the displacement is in the direction of the velocity of the block. As the maximum value of is, the value of must be less than the magnitude of the force applied. Therefore, the work done is,
In figure B, the magnitude of the force that causes the motion in the box is. As the force is applied horizontally, the value of is zero. Therefore, the work done is,
In figure C, the force is applied perpendicular to the box. In this case the value of is. Therefore, the work done is,
Thus, the ranking of the net work done in ascending order is.
Therefore, the correct option is.

so unless La Mulana or Retro City Rampage change people's minds, there's basically not any life left for the fun but very flawed Wiiware (and you will not internet debate this for no reason). So why not? This thread.
For me it's World of Goo, easy as hell choice. If I got Cave Story, it might have been close (even the PC original isn't quite as good as World of Goo). But everything else I got was ok or good but not GOTY 2008. It was simple but so addicting. It only take a few hours to beat, but I've spent combined on both on my own Wiiware version and someone else's PC version like 50 hours. The humor is really good and never feels forced, overdone or trying to hard like a lot of indy games often do, the art design is great, the music is Danny Elfman worthy.

Greenville man accused of making 38 fake 911 calls
GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) — Authorities in Greenville County have accused a man of making almost 40 fake 911 calls dating back to July 2010.
The Greenville County Sheriff's Office said 43-year-old Ralph Roan Lawson called emergency personnel earlier this week to report his wife was unconscious. When deputies and emergency personnel reached his home, they determined there was no emergency.
Sheriff's deputies said while they were investigating the case shortly after midnight Tuesday, a second call made by the same person said there was a fire at a church in Anderson County and that people were trapped inside.
Investigators determined that Lawson had made 38 false emergency calls, 21 of them since Nov. 24, 2012.
Lawson was arrested Thursday and released on a $3,000 bond. It's not known if he has an attorney.

We went to the French Lick to take our kids on a USGA golf course fit for them. The place is very beautiful and the room was one of the nicest ones we have been to thus far. It was one of the first places I have stayed at and felt like I was sleeping in my own bed. Overall, the hotel has very beautiful decor and you can definitely tell that the restoration cost was up there! They try to incorporate other family activites, such as tennis, bike riding and bowling. However, if you plan on staying there more than a couple of days and like to stay active, you will become bored rather quickly. We checked out the casino while our kids participated one of their programs and it was very clean. My husband and I do not smoke and this is the only casino we have been to in the area where we didn't feel like we were being hit in the face with smoke! If your looking for a peaceful, slow-paced weeked then the French Lick is it!

Washington Post reporter Walter Pincus, one of the few traditional media reporters to have forcefully challenged Bush's prewar claims on WMDs, has called for a moratorium on publishing government statements "that are designed solely as a public relations tool," like ones where the president speaks before backgrounds that read "Mission Accomplished" or "Restoring America's Values."
Walter Pincus at Nieman Watchdog:
... A new element of courage in journalism would be for editors and reporters to decide not to cover the President's statements when he—or any public figure—repeats essentially what he or she has said before. The Bush team also has brought forward another totally PR gimmick: The President stands before a background that highlights the key words of his daily message. This tactic serves only to reinforce that what's going on is public relations—not governing. Journalistic courage should include the refusal to publish in a newspaper or carry on a TV or radio news show any statements made by the President or any other government official that are designed solely as a public relations tool, offering no new or valuable information to the public.

My daughters Mazda 6 (2006; 6-cylinder) has an electrical problem. Although I've witnessed the car symptoms, she is away at college. Well here is what I know.
1) She claimed the car wouldn't start (wheels turned wide), until her boyfriend straightened the wheels.
2) The car started, but "weakly", and made "clicking (electrical relays?) sounds". Noise occurs prior to engagement of the starter.
3)Early symptoms, level of "starting ability" appeared to depend upon position of steering wheel.
4) I took it to AutoZone. The diagnostic code was P2108: Either a) TP sensor, b) Open or Short circuit condition, or c) Throttle valve motor malfunction. Now Car is not starting.
Non-starter ,Starting problem on 2006 Mazda Mazda6
My daughters Mazda 6 (2006; 6-cylinder) has an electrical problem. Although I've witnessed the car symptoms, she is away at college. Well here is what I know.
1 answer 1 comment
Sounds like a battery or battery cable problem. Also possibly a starter problem. I don't know what to make of the steering wheel question, unless the steering wheel lock mechanism is hanging up the ign switch, but that wouldn't explain the other symptoms. She needs first to get the battery, charging and staring systems checked. Probably by a Mazda or an electrical specialist. The P2108 code may have been set during a low voltage condition which could be because of battery, starter or alternator problems but wouldn't keep the starter from turning so that's something to assess after the basic problems are fixed. Here's a directory link for you. http://repairpal.com/directory?address=32837&car_brand_names=Mazda
I have the same issue on my 2008 Mazda6 V6. The battery/starter is bad and I am getting P2108, althoug engine works fine. No problem with the wheel in my case. I guess I will go to Sam's club check the battery and will let you know.

My wife and daughter was walking out of the elevator and employees rushed into the elevator. So we said excuse me and a racial slur was blurted out by a housekeeping staff. We tried to report it to the Security who looked at us from head to toe and said that is not his job. We reported it to the front desk and they spoke to the manager Robert Fieldman who refuses to talk to us in person. We also tried calling and again with no luck. This is a kids theme park but some of the staff members are rude and racist. My daughter suffered anxiety and had to go to the ER for panic attack. I am not looking for compensation just for the manager to stop racism specially in front of children. Nickelodeon Orlando is the worst place that we vacationed in.

AbstractStaphylococcus aureus is an important pathogen of humans and livestock. It causes a diverse array of diseases, ranging from relatively harmless localized skin infections to life-threatening systemic conditions. Among multiple virulence factors, staphylococci secrete several exotoxins directly associated with particular disease symptoms. These include toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1), enterotoxins, and exfoliative toxins (ETs). The latter are particularly interesting as the sole agents responsible for staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS), a disease predominantly affecting infants and characterized by the loss of superficial skin layers, dehydration, and secondary infections. The molecular basis of the clinical symptoms of SSSS is well understood. ETs are serine proteases with high substrate specificity, which selectively recognize and hydrolyze desmosomal proteins in the skin. The fascinating road leading to the discovery of ETs as the agents responsible for SSSS and the characterization of the molecular mechanism of their action, including recent advances in the field, are reviewed in this article.

The Science Behind Great Product Design

The second phase of the mobile service expansion project has been completed in Addis Abeba, bringing the call success rate up to 98pc, amid sporadic SIM card shortages in the city.
Huawei Technologies have been ordered by the Ethiopian Revenues and Customs Authority (ERCA) to remove the US$13 million telecoms equipment it allegedly imported into the country illegally last year, according to a report.
It has been reported that an official at ECRA said the Chinese company is expected to pay five per cent of the total tax due on the equipment as well as the warehouse charges incurred over the past year.
The Addis Abeba Education Bureau said it will connect all secondary schools in the metropolises with the Schoolnet programme this academic year. About "2,500 computers have already been purchased at a cost of 23 million Br to connect the schools," Bureau head, Delamo Otore, said.
The connection would encourage interaction among teachers and students of secondary schools as well as helps students to benefit from computer networking, among others, according to Delamo.
There seems to be no service that Ethiopians of all colours complain about more than telecommunications. A sector destined to live under the reign of the restructured ethio telecom monopoly, telecommunications remains the hotspot for the disappointments of the ever-growing population of the nation.
LG Electronics is opening a million dollar Technical & Vocational Education & Training (TVET) College in September 2013.
The college will offer courses in Information Technology (IT); electronics; and television and cell phone maintenance. According to Yong Geun Choi, representative for LG's Ethiopia office and LG's director of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) for the Middle East and Africa, the College will also offer additional courses in agriculture.
Choi was speaking at the launch of the LG Hope Village in Sendafa on April 16, 2013.
The Ministry of Communications & Information Technology (MoCIT) launched 49 e-service portals developed in order to enable seven governmental institutions give online services at a ceremony held at Churchill Hotel on November 22, 2012.
Two private IT solution providers were involved in developing and installing the e-service system, which cost 3.8 million Br, all provided by the World Bank. Africom Technologies Plc has developed 33 of the e-services with 2.8 million Br and eSystemAfricahad the rest 16 with one million Birr, both after winning the tender a year ago.
Tecno Mobile Ethiopia, a subsidiary of the Hong Kong-based mobile manufacturer, is to release its first locally assembled smartphone in mid July for a price possibly between 6,000 Br and 8,000 Br.
The new brand, Tecno T3, supports Google's Android 2.3 a smartphone operating system.
Android is a Linux-based operating system for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. The initial developer of the software, Android Inc, was purchased by Google in 2005.
A pilot project to use mobile phones to enable health professionals to collect data, have it analyzed and give feedback is to be launched next week at a projected cost of around 370,000 dollars.
The project spearheaded by Technology for Change International, a non-governmental organization, aims to use 1,000 mobile handsets distributed to health professionals in four regions -Amhara, Tigray, Oromia and Southern - to collect data on pregnant women.
Ethiopian Electric Power Cooperation (EEPCo) and ethio-telecom, which reported losses of US$4.2 million and US$3.6 million, respectively, due to theft and intentional damages on their infrastructure this year, appealed to Ministry of Justice (MoJ) for stringent legal measures on those accused of committing these acts.

The VERY racy rules of Game of Thrones: With dwarves, daggers and Diana Rigg, the smash-hit TV epic is back... but do you know your Starks from your Baratheons?
Heaving bosoms, bloody swordfights and sex scenes that would make Silvio Berlusconi blush, American TV epic Game Of Thrones is not for the weak-hearted.
Billed as a cross between Lord Of The Rings and The Sopranos with swords, the HBO show has gripped audiences on both sides of the Atlantic during its previous two seasons.
The first ever episode of the £40 million drama, filmed in Northern Ireland, Iceland, Croatia and Morocco, attracted Sky Atlantic's largest audience to date.
Bad heir day: Jack Gleeson as Joffrey and Natalie Dormer as Margaery, conspire to cling on to the Iron Throne
Series two eclipsed Mad Men in the ratings and went on to become the most illegally downloaded programme ever internationally.
Tomorrow evening, the long-awaited third series, which features a mostly British cast, including Charles Dance, Lena Headey and now Diana Rigg, roars on to our screens at 9pm, just one day after it premieres in America.
But for those who can't remember if they were rooting for the Starks or the Lannisters last season – or even doesn't know who the Starks or the Lannisters are – The Mail on Sunday has compiled the ultimate Game Of Thrones guide.
Here we assess who's still in the running for the Iron Throne, who's slept with whom, who's already met a sticky end and what we can expect in season three.
- Game Of Thrones returns to Sky Atlantic HD from Monday, when series 1 and 2 will also be available on demand.
After the crown...
KING IN THE NARROW SEA: The battle to become king of kings comes after the death of King Robert. His son Joffrey (Jack Gleeson) takes over the Seven Kingdoms . . . but Robert's brother Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane) knows the claim is bogus, as Joffrey isn't Robert's real son after all – even without the benefit of a Jeremy Kyle-style DNA test. The short story is that he's a bit miffed about how events turned out so decided to team up with the priestess Melisandre, who last season gave birth to a shadow monster. The birthing scene was one of the most difficult to create. Prosthetic artists created a fake belly for naked actress Carice van Houten, which was operated by pneumatics to simulate birth. Stannis was last seen licking his wounds following his defeat at the Battle of Blackwater, but he's planning to re-group with Melisandre after she convinces him he will be king.
Covering up: Emilia Clarke as Queen Daenerys
Chances of winning the crown: 6/10
KING IN THE HIGHGANDEN: He was popular at court and looked seriously good in a crown made of antlers, but Renly Baratheon (Gethin Anthony), still couldn't quite stay alive long enough to boot his nephew Joffrey from the throne. He had claimed the crown for himself following the death of his older brother Robert, making an enemy not only of both Joffrey and Stannis. Before the Battle of Blackwater, Melisandre's shadow creature murders Renly, so . . . Chances of winning the crown: 0/10
KING IN THE NORTH: Robb Stark (Richard Madden) has been declared King in the North and is hell-bent on avenging his father Lord Eddard Stark's death. The last time we saw him in season two he was doing quite well and had captured Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) to use as a bargaining tool. But he has betrayed an oath to marry a daughter of the House Frey by marrying Talisa Maegyr in secret. Chances of winning the crown: 4/10
QUEEN ACROSS THE SEA: Queen Daenerys's husband Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa) kills her brother Prince Viserys (Harry Lloyd). Then she kills the killer – making her the only surviving member of the former royal family – and goes into exile. Actress Emilia Clarke spent much of the second
series in a state of undress but – to the dismay of her legion of male fans – has vowed not to go naked again. How regal . . . Chances of winning the crown: 7/10
Gruesome deaths...
BOARED TO DEATH: The death of the portly King Robert Baratheon (Mark Addy) is a lesson to us all about the dangers of hunting and drinking. His death, from wounds inflicted while trying to kill a boar, sparked the War of the Five Kings. A Facebook account in the name of The Boar That Killed Robert Baratheon has almost 2,000 likes.
- Magister Illyrio's sumptuous home is actually the summer residence of Malta's president
- The invented Dothraki language has more words for 'kill' than 'love'
- George RR Martin wrote to King Joffrey actor Jack Gleeson: 'Marvellous performance – everyone hates you'
- British actor Roy Dotrice did a record-breaking 224 voices in narrating the audio book of Martin's work
LOSING YOUR HEAD: Lord Eddard Stark (Sean Bean) was asked to be an interim king by Robert, until Joffrey came of age. But the little brat had other ideas and had him beheaded in front of his daughter Sansa (Sophie Turner) and a baying crowd. His head was placed on a spike above the Traitor's Walk next to Septa Mordane, who looked suspiciously like George W. Bush wearing a wig. The prop was indeed made in the former president's image. 'It's not a political statement,' said executive producer David Benioff,'we just had to use what heads we had lying around!'
THE GOLDEN CROWN: Heir to the Targaryen dynasty, the narcissist Prince Viserys meets his maker when his brother-in-law Dothraki warlord Khal Drogo, pours molten gold over his head. The props department forged a gold-like substance while smoke machines, strapped to the actor's back and chest gave the impression the liquid was blisteringly hot.
The newcomers
DAME DIANA RIGG: A generation of men still get hot under the collar when they think of Diana Rigg as Emma Peel in that leather catsuit. Now the 74-year-old actress is set to raise eyebrows as the scheming Olenna Tyrell, or The Queen of Thorns. No one was more excited about her arrival on set than George RR Martin, who wrote the fantasy series Game Of Thrones is based on. In an interview, he said Rigg was the 'hottest women on television or the world' in her Avengers days. 'I was madly in love with her along with virtually all the boys in my generation,' he added.
Scheming: Dame Diana Rigg as Olenna Tyrell, left, and Mackenzie Crook as Orell, right
CIARAN HINDS: The Irish film actor said he found the onslaught of sex and violence in Game Of Thrones annoying and 'a little gratuitous' at first, but that didn't stop the 60-year-old signing up to the part of Mance Rayder or King-Beyond-The-Wall. As such, Hinds found himself on location in Iceland, trussed up in fur against a raging blizzard.
MACKENZIE CROOK: Mackenzie Crook also looks close to hypothermia in his scenes as Orell, a Wildling. The 41-year-old, best known as Gareth in T he Office and Ragetti in the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise, said: 'It's the most physical job I've ever done. Just exhausting. I had to learn how to climb ice walls and do combat training.'
Chilly: Ciaran Hinds filming in Iceland, left, and Emmanuel as slave Missandei, right
NATHALIE EMMANUEL: Unless you watch Hollyoaks, you may not recognise the 24-year-old, who played Sasha Valentine in the soap but she is now set for international stardom after signing up to play Missandei, a slave. She gushed 'I can't actually articulate the true extent of my excitement.'
Sex, sex and more sex
Game Of Thrones has become as renowned for its raunchy sex scenes as it has for its violence. Here are some of the more outrageous moments . . .
Brotherly love: Lena Headey is caught cheating on her husband King Robert with her brother Jaime
Cersei Lannister, the Queen Regent of the Seven Kingdoms played by Lena Headey, is caught cheating on her husband King Robert with her brother Jaime. When ten-year-old Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) spots the incestuous pair in a derelict tower, Jaime pushes him out of the window, leaving him paralysed.
THE KING OF MASOCHISM: One of the most controversial sex scenes in the show involves King Joffrey. When his uncle Tyrion sends him two prostitutes for his birthday he forces one to beat the other with a spiked leather paddle. It took a day to shoot the scene, but luckily the actress used a soft prop to make it realistic – but not painful.
THE RANDY DWARF: Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) – the younger brother of Cersei and Jaime – is a dwarf who is nicknamed 'Halfman' or 'The Imp'. He gets all the best lines, and is depraved as the rest of them. He has a fondness for drink and prostitutes who can perform mind-boggling acrobatic moves in the bedroom.
THE GAY LOVE TRIANGLE: When Lord Renly Baratheon, younger brother of King Robert, fails to produce an heir, his wife Queen Margaery (Natalie Dormer) suggests that they include his gay lover Ser Loras Tyrell (Finn Jones) in the bedroom.
You little devil: Peter Dinklage as pint-sized Tyrion, left, and, right, Natalie Dormer as Queen Margaery

Todd Miller is the owner of Miller Tennis Center with his wife Debbie. His list of accomplishments in tennis are almost legendary. Among his accolades are being inducted into the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame, the Sweet Home High School Sports Hall of Fame, and the State University at Buffalo Hall of Fame.
In addition, Miller is responsible for establishing the Buffalo Tennis Hall of Fame, the Muny Tennis Hall of Fame, Buffalo Tennis Night, and the Buffalo Tennis Series. He is also a National Coach, USA High Performance Coach, PTR National Clinician, and was responsible for staging the first Women's Professional Tennis Tournament in Western New York.
Miller was also instrumental in having numerous world class speakers and exhibition matches that have included world class tennis stars such as home grown product Jimmy Arias, former French Open Doubles Champions Luke and Murphy Jensen; among others. He is also the only designated Master Tennis Professional in the history of Western New York.
As incredible as these accomplishments are, Miller recently reached the apex of his tennis career when he was presented with the designation of "International Master Professional" by the Professional Tennis Registry on May 1 at the International Tennis Symposium in Hilton Head Island, S.C. The Professional Tennis Registry (PTR) is a global organization with 15,000 tennis coaches and teaching professionals in 126 countries.
PTR president Jorge Andrew is a former ATP player, played Davis Cup for Venezuela, and is also an International Master Professional. On Miller receiving the prestigious award, Andrew said, "The title of International Master Professional is reserved for the world's best. It is a career lifetime achievement designation based on excellence in coaching and for contributions to the sport of tennis. Todd Miller is very deserving of this honor and his career achievements speak for themselves."
To show you how incredible Miller's award was, the International Master Professional award puts Miller in the same company as Arthur Ashe, former U.S. Open and Wimbledon singles champion Billie Jean King, many time Grand Slam singles and doubles winner Dennis Van der Meer, who is unanimously recognized as one of the greatest teaching professionals in the history of tennis, and Dr. Jim Loehr, who is recognized as a renowned sports psychologist.
Upon receiving the International Master Professional award, Miller said, "Joining this elite group of individuals from around the world, particularly Dennis Van der Meer, is the ultimate honor for me as Dennis was the biggest influence in my tennis career. He greatly inspired me and I consider him to be the person most responsible for a great amount of my success in tennis."
Summer championships set
Orville's Home Appliances, Sargent & Collins LLP and Twin Village Recycling will be sponsors of arguably the largest tournament ever held for local players in WNY at the Miller Tennis Center, the Buffalo $22,000 Summer Championships. Divisions will run from 3.0 to Open and events will take place as follows: Singles, July 12-14; Doubles, July 19-21; Mixed Doubles, July 26-28.
There will be record prize money, consolation draws and playoffs for third and fourth places in all events. Finals of all main draw events will be umpired. A player/guest kickoff party will take place July 7 (1 p.m.-4 p.m.) with round robin play.
For further information call Miller Tennis Center at 632-8600.

shortly after that, I've getting all these phone calls and emails. I highly recommend you not to attned the meeting if you are compulsive shopper. And if just out of curiosity, and you have a strong mind then feel free to go and listen to their sales pitch.
here is the end of the story, when I finally can't handle the harassment, I decided to call and ask them to remove my phone number from the calling list. Here is what happened. they tried to convinced me to at least attend the meeting and decide from there. since I was determined and I firmly told them NO. then the sales rep became impatient and asked me what I wanted from them. So I told them to stop calling me and they hang up the phone.
With this kind of customer service, only nice when you are buying something and lie to your face about winning the vacation. You can be the judge!!!

On Friday, Dec. 16, I tried to use a coupon at Tokyo Fro's on Fair Oaks Blvd. and the waiter said: "We don't take those on Friday night."
I said: "But your adverstisement says the coupon is good every night."
He countered with: "Actually, we really didn't want to be in the book, but the people at Entertainment Book put us in there anyway."
First of all, that is not true. Companies pay for inclusion in the popular book -- especially those with 2-page glossy photos ads.
The truth is the place is under new management and they inherited the Entertainment Book ad. Instead of honoring what could amount to 200 users in a 12-month period they are turning down their customers.
Not that my business will make or break this company, but I won't return. Too many decent sushi restaurants exist in this town to give my business to someone who won't honor their advertising.
Furthermore, how hard is it to post a large sign in the door that says: Entertainment Book not accepted?

A visit with Michigan State baseball coach Jake Boss Tuesday reveals he has a busy six months ahead even though his team ended its season nearly two months ago.
Boss has another youth camp at McLane Stadium due to start next Monday. He has five weeks of fall baseball camp set to begin in early September with practices set for five days a week. He will be recruiting with his assistants all during this time.
At the end of July he is also taking his son to the Dominican Republic for a week of clinics where he has taught previously. And for the fourth time he will visit South Africa with his daughter for clinics for kids in early December. Boss used to make that trip with his dad when he was coaching.
Boss has completed five seasons as the Spartans' head coach. He loves the travel and promoting the game especially now that he can include his family. His youngest, a daughter, turned five on Monday.
