No right-left tear, no up-down tear at several different distances with a release ---- does that mean the arrow did not flex? Is it theoretically possible with an over spined arrow and a very precisely tuned bow to shoot an arrow without it flexing? If the energy is imparted to the exact center of the nock, must it flex? Why?

Product Information
Give your tags silence with the Bone Pet Tag Silencer for the Engravable Pet I.D. Tag!
Why We Love It:
The Bone Pet Tag Silencer will cut back the noise when pets are prowling at night. Tag glows in the dark and made of PVC. Silencer helps to protect engraving from getting scratched up. Three pack includes a Blue, Camoflauge, and a Glow in the Dark.
Important Sizing Note: The following measurements are the dimensions of the actual product, not of the pet they fit. After measuring your pet, make sure all measurements fit within the following dimensions (with a little room to spare in the chest and neck).Large Bone
These fit the bone ID tags I got for all three of my dogs sporting our favorite football team.
Enough silencers for our two dogs. The clear one is glow in the dark!
Not only do these rubber edgings help reduce the metal tinkling sound as your dog walks around, but it protects the entire tag from wear and tear. I've noticed even the exposed face/middle gets scratched less because this product buffers it being knocked around.
Some dirt does accumulate because it creates a raised edge, but that is cleaned easily every time I bath my pup. Collars need washing too, so I soap up while dog is wearing it, and hang to dry. (The collar, not the dog. ;) )
These little tag silencers are a great invention! Nothing worse then jingling tags during the night. And to get 3 in the package for under $3 is a plus! A must have with your bone shaped ID tags!!
No more clanking around the halls. Effective silencer!

Fitness Tip of the Day: Whatever works
After an embarrassing showing at Luke's Locker's All-Comers track meet last night, I wasn't feeling particularly speedy (more about this mortification at some point, but I will say that I am fine with what happened. I am. Really).
Perhaps my slow showing should have revved me, made me more determined than ever to have a make-up-for-those-pokey-shenanigans run. In a word, it didn't. (OK, that was two words; I'm too mortified to even count correctly).
Anyway, I started off walking today, then decided to add a 20-second dash (using the word loosely) every five minutes. About two miles in, I saw a familiar man running, holding the leashes of two dogs who jogged in front of him. I said hello and the man said something back.
It was one of those take-any-excuse-to-stop days, so I did, and asked him to repeat what he'd said.
"You're not running today!" he said. Truth to tell, I was kind of tickled because I didn't know he had ever even noticed me, and we all like to be noticed from time to time.
"Yeah," I said. "I'm just in the mood to walk. But I am throwing in 20 seconds of running every five minutes."
"Whatever works!" he said. He introduced me to his dogs (Jasper and Sable, if memory serves), then he and I waved to each other and kept going.
I liked that: Whatever works. It actually served to spur me on a bit, increasing my 20 seconds to a minute and then two before running all but a minute of that last mile.
So there you have, the Fitness Tip of the Day: Whatever works. Go for it.

Jorge Arce: Nongqayi Will Pay The Piper, With a KO
By Rafael Soto
MEXICALI, BC - Jorge "Travieso" Arce is more than ready to defend to get in the ring at the PromoCasa Forum in Mexicali on Saturday, September 24, when he defends his world Super Bantamweight (WBO) championship against South African Simphiwe Nongqayi in a long awaited rematch. Zanfer will stage the event with TV Azteca televising.
"There are three reasons that I want to defend my title. First, I know that beating Nongqayi will bring me an even bigger fight. Second, I want to avenge my brother 'Panchito', who lost to the South African. And third, I also want my own revenge because he beat me on a bad night," Arce said.
Arce (57-6-2, 44KOs) remembered that Nongqayi (16-1-1, 6KOs) defeated his brother Francisco in February 2009 in a IBF super flyweight eliminator, and then Arce lost to him in September of the same year. Arce trained for eight weeks at the gym of "The Cochules" in Los Mochis. Arce vowed to make his opponent "pay the piper" by "knocking him out."
"I will give a great show in Mexicali for the knowledgeable audience of people who follow me on TV Azteca, I'll give everything in the ring. I feel strong and eager to be in the ring.
On the undercard, Victor "Viking" Terrazas debuts for Zanfer. Terrazas (30-2-1, 17 KOs) will have a tough 10-round contest at featherweight against Panamanian boxer Leopoldo Arrocha (10-16-2, 6 KOs).
Will this be televised in the US? WAR Travieso!Comment by prinzemanspopa on 09-19-2011
Just seems like an unnecessary risk to me.Arce got outboxed pretty soundly by this guy two years ago,and he sure as hell hasn't improved since then.And Arce doesn't need to be taking these type of risks at this stage in…Comment by lluisone on 09-19-2011
dumbass you going to lose again :boxing:Comment by Babalu11 on 09-19-2011
Props to Arce, a warrior. Always fighting whoever the give him, always fighting the best there was, the best there is. If it wasn't for the corrupted WBC he would be the 1st legit Mexican champ in 4 weight classesComment by Heru on 09-19-2011
Arce is a true warrior for making this fight because he didn't need to do this. He's going out of his way to face Nongqayi after being embarrassed by him.Post a Comment - View More User Comments (5)

Well, my favorite character is Hyuuga Hinata because I just love her personality and her potential to be a great ninja. She is the character who brings in some comedy with her shyness whenever she is in contact with her secret crush, Naruto. She also brings hope to the series as she could become vital to the whole series as she is the only girl in the series to actually care for Hinata romantically even though it may just be a schoolgirl crush. For anyone who watches the show with subtitles, you have already seen her cunning mind bringing up an interesting idea to find a character who has gone missing. Not only does she care for others very much and use her mind to help them, but she also applies this to her training and it comes out to some very good results. Plus she is the heir to the most powerful bloodline in Konoha adding a whole other dimension to her as she must please her father and show that she is strong. I believe that one day she truly will become a great leader of the Hyuuga clan and bring a much more modern aspect of life into the Hyuuga clan. I also hope that one day she finally confesses her affection to Naruto and will have a happy life with him as being with him will also most likely make her a more talkative person thus giving us a more fleshed out and independent Hinata who will not rely on others. Plus I think she is kinda of cute(I know kinda weird), plus she is one of the few characters who does not truly annoy me when she appears in the show like most of the female ninjas do.

The world's best sailing photographers will be celebrated for the seventh consecutive time in 2016. Yacht Racing photographers from all over the world are invited to enter the Mirabaud Yacht Racing Image award 2016. (more…)
The 'Mirabaud Yacht Racing Image' is a yearly photographic contest and exhibition. It seeks to recognise the very best yacht racing image taken during the year, and that which best represents the essence and excitement of yacht racing as a sport.
The contest is open to professional yacht racing photographers from all over the world. Two prizes are awarded every year:
- The 'Mirabaud Yacht Racing Image', chosen by a panel of specialists from the yacht racing and photographic industries.
- The 'public prize' decided by the number of popular votes on the website and the delegates from the Yacht Racing Forum.
Follow us on
Mirabaud Yacht Racing Image award announces new rules
The world's premier photography competition dedicated to the sport of sailing improves thanks to the feedback of some of the world's best yacht racing photographers.
March 9, 2016 – The Mirabaud Yacht Racing Image award is the world's premier photography competition dedicated to the sport of sailing. Started in 2010, the event announces a new set of rules established with the support of some of the most prominent yacht racing photographers.
The main changes are the following:
- There will be one official winner, selected by the international juryamongst the top 80 pictures.
- The preselection of the top 80 pictures submitted (and therefore photographers admitted) will be made by a panel of three recognized international yacht racing photographers, who will change over the years and whose identity will be made public. The selected pictures will then be published on the event website and social networks.
- The top 20 pictures chosen by the international Jury will be printed and displayed at the Yacht Racing Forum, on Internet and promoted on the social networks. A special emphasis will be put on this selection (instead of the public selection as was the case previously).
- Two secondary prizes will be awarded during the Yacht Racing Forum:
- The Yacht Racing Forum Award (selected by the delegates attending the Yacht Racing Forum)
- The Public Award (selected by the votes from the public on Facebook). This award rewards the quality of the pictures as well as the photographers network. It needs to be taken with a lighthearted spirit. It is however important for the promotion of the contest and its participants thanks to the power of the social networks. Photographers are therefore encouraged to contribute to the promotion of their (and their colleagues) images.
The new rules have been established after consultation with approximately twenty of the world's most prominent yacht racing photographers.
Other updates on points of details, not included in the event rules, have also been made in order to improve the global quality of the contest.
The new rules are available on the event website: http://www.yachtracingimage.com/contest/rules/

The major issues underpinning the bad loan problems plaguing Japan's banking system are the fast pace of loans migrating from other categories into nonperforming status, together with the banks' insufficient interest margins to absorb their credit costs. The Japanese government recently proposed a final disposal ("saishu shori") of the banks' bad loans. However, this solution only confronts part of the deeper problem. Japanese banks cannot recover their financial health without a recovery in the domestic economy, which is unlikely to take place soon. Furthermore, development of Japan's underwriting culture, without which the banks cannot prevent the continuing emergence of new bad loans, is also expected to happen only slowly. Japan's many definitions of nonperforming loans (NPLs) are a source of...

Posted on 11/14/2006 12:39:24 PM PST by SmithL
MEXICO CITY -- Mexico's Congress was swayed Tuesday by a 7-year-old boy on a mission to save his mom.
Second-grader Saul Arellano, a U.S. citizen, appeared in Mexico's 500-member Chamber of Deputies to plead for help in lobbying Washington to stop the deportation of his mother, an illegal immigrant who has taken refuge in a Chicago church. His efforts paid off with a resolution calling on the Bush administration to suspend the deportation of Elvira Arellano and any other illegal immigrant parents of U.S. citizens.
If the U.S. agrees, it would "create a precedent that will benefit more than 4.9 million children who have been born in the United States and whose parents live under the threat of deportation," said Mexican congressman Jose Jacques, who lived in the United States for 33 years and has an American daughter and granddaughter.
Flashing cameras and swarms of reporters surrounded the boy as he entered the chamber. But instead of stepping to the podium, he was swept into a side room, where he hid his face and ducked under a table.
"I think being so small he was kind of freaked," family friend Jesus Carlin said.
Saul then took the microphone and spoke to reporters in Spanish, describing what he wanted from Mexico's lawmakers: "I want them to tell President Bush to end the deportations so that my mother and other families can stay together in the United States."
(Excerpt) Read more at sfgate.com ...
Throw her out. pronto.
Send her home before she drops out any more children that we are supposed to support.
But....perhaps the Bush/Kennedy amnesty tragedy will make the plea a moot point.
They have no shame, no guilt about the glee they get rid of their own people.
IS she still in that church?
Boot them all out.
"Cry me a river."
Don't do that. A few more might come.
The mexican govt needs to send over a few hundred thousand dollars to use for healthcare for these two.
There is. They can live together in Mexico.
Another slap in the face from Mexico.
"Save his mom..." From what? Mexico? The place her son is at?
Deport the illegals and their snotty anchor brats!
Gad, I wish we could pick our neighbors.
Some illegal tried to shoot one of our Tulsa police officers the other day (luckily had a vest).
Did the mexican govt want the perp to stay here in the U.S. too? Or they willing to take him back and incarcerate him.
The mexican govt only whines when it is going to cost them any blow-back money that the illegals make here, and take down there. By coming out against U.S. executions against their people, it looks like they care about them.
Better yet, the Church that is aiding and abetting this illegal alien should be court-ordered to support her, her spawn and as many other illegals as THEY wish to let in.
I'm waiting for Mexico to pass a law making illegal for US employers to require SSAN or green cards.
Here's the first hint at an amnesty deal...
Not that I am surprised...
Better yet, the Church that is aiding and abetting this illegal alien should be court-ordered to support her
Hey, they hope the notoriety will bring up the tithe till. Damn the law to hell.
These criminal invaders and the Mexican government have no shame and Mexico wants our 'elected' who swear to 'uphold the law' in their oaths to American citizen to disregard that oath to America's citizens, and allow the criminal invasion to continue. I may as well not have a country if this woman remains and our elected approve of her remaining. 'Uphold the Law' - Throw her out.
"But....perhaps the Bush/Kennedy amnesty tragedy will make the plea a moot point."
What is totally incomprehensible is that even the POTUS may decide to act against the wishes and interest of the American people.
As long as they pay the illegals bills with it, and leave the taxpayer out, fine by me.
Those that want illegals here should give up their OWN money to support them, buy their insurance, etc, those of us who don't want to support illegals, should not have to PAY for them.
I guess that settles that. Nobody can resist a plea from a young boy in distress, that's for sure. Oh, wait, there was that little Elian Gonzales forced deportation, once, wasn't there? At gunpoint, I might add.
We need badly to go back to the original concept of completely separate States. Those that want aliens, can pay for them. If you don't like the laws in a particular state, well, move where you like it better.
Same goes for gay-marriage, abortion, and on and on and on and on.
That's very Constitutional of you! I'm for it.
The power of the OBL seems to have no limits. ICE has known for months now exactly where she is at in Chicago and 'someone' in D.C. is preventing her from being deported, even while her son is in Mexico. She should be arrested, prosecuted, and prisoned for returning a second time, currently a felony, isn't it? Her son can remain in Mexico. Meantime, the county, against Federal immigration laws, looks to welcome her into a new 'sanctuary' city. Elvira has been a busy woman and is getting all the help she needs from the D.C. OBL.
COOK COUNTY CHICAGOANS...UNITE - 11/14/06 (tomorrow) SANCTUARY VOTE?
11/13/06 | KimberlyGG

(ILLEGAL) Immigrant Mother Defends Son's Future
.............."Cook County Commissioner Roberto Maldonado, inspired by Arellanos courage, drafted a bill calling for the county, which includes Chicago, to be designated a sanctuary for immigrants. The measure would prohibit county employees from asking people about their immigration status, thereby ensuring that undocumented immigrants would have access to all county services."......
CHICAGO (WBBM) -- A Cook County Board committee has narrowly passed a proposal to make the county a sanctuary for illegal immigrants. WBBM's Steve Miller reports. The vote was 3 to 2 in committee - on a move to make Cook County a safe space for undocumented immigrants. Even the sponsor, Commissioner Roberto Maldonado, called it symbolic, because nothing would stop federal agents from making immigration raids. "And it is symbolic to tell the people of Cook County who happen to be undocumented that, look, we recognize that we are a county of immigrants." Commissioner Tony Peraica voted against the resolution. He says the County Board has no jurisdiction. "And I believe this particular issue would create a false sense of hope in people's minds that they can, in fact, continue to stay in an illegal capacity with impunity." The resolution also forbids county employees from asking people about their immigration status.
The resolution still has to go to the full board."
No, but it'll probably be a part of the comprehensive immigration reform bill coming our way!
What is it?... GET AS MANY AS YOU CAN AND GET THEM ACROSS THE BORDER BEFORE THE BUILD THE WALL? - ROFL :)
Close her hatch before she launches another misslie out of her silo, PULEEEEZE!
"We need badly to go back to the original concept of completely separate States. Those that want aliens, can pay for them. If you don't like the laws in a particular state, well, move where you like it better.
Same goes for gay-marriage, abortion, and on and on and on and on."
...best plan I've ever heard since I joined FR.
If so, this changes everything. Throw the brat out!
Throw her out and prosecute the church members harboring her and take away the church's tax exemption.
Illegal immigration is #1 on Mexico's list. To he!! with Oaxaca and 40% of their people living in poverty. Fox,Calderone and the PAN party are pathetic.
cut a deal with mexico....
the US will keep her...but they must take back the next 10 million!!!!!
I think you'll find that in the "Bush Doctrine".
I recently did some research on that. I found one nobel prize winner, one inventor. That was about it. They've produced little for themselves or the world throughout history, well except export of their own citizens.
I'm sure the Mexican government will just cave right in and let that happen.
I Support Immigration. LEGAL Immigration!
And this boy should have been in school somewhere..not hiding behind a desk in Mexico..
4.9 million Democrats who will be eligible to vote. Do we really need more?
And there are 4.9 million of those anchor brats here. I wonder if those are just the children of Mexican nationals or if that number includes all children of illegal aliens? (Just damn!)
"more than 4.9 million children who have been born in the United States and whose parents live under the threat of deportation"
I heard last week, that a poll taken of Mexican citizens in Mexico projected that a full 70% of the adult population would move to the US today if they could legally do so------
Get ready.
So wrong,
so many reasons,
so likely to happen with GWB and a Dem congress.

Would be nice to have an option in the widget (checkbox) to hide the Gravatar and "Posted by…"
Hi, you can hide it with CSS. Edit the .featuredComment-cite and set it to display:none or
edit the file featured-comment-widget.php in /wp-content/plugins/featured-comment-widget around line 86.
Thanks for the help, simonysandra. For some reason I'm not getting notifications on this thing haha. But, yes, CSS would be the best solution. Updating the plugin file itself works until another update comes out - unless you fork it and make your own plugin out of it!
You can find documentation for CSS and this widget on the "Other Notes" section: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/featured-comment-widget/other_notes/
+1 for the option to hide the gravatar and display only the commenter's name. I am currently doing this by editing the code after each update of the plugin.
Tom - if you want to hide the Gravatar, just add this to your stylesheet:
.featuredComment-gravatar img { display: none; }
Much better than editing the plugin code after each update.
Jenn, that option is probably a Google no likey and could hurt the SEO... And I am also removing the "Posted by" part.
Overall I love your plugin. Any chance for having optional gravatars in a future release?
I don't know why hiding the Gravatar would have anything to do with SEO.
It might be wrong but I read somewhere that extensive usage of "display:none;" or "visibility:hidden" would trigger a signal to Google. I am including several featured comments and they appear on every single page of my site.
And there is the "Posted by" part which I am also removing, which forces me to edit the code after each update.

Received an email from customer service on January 16th that there were THREE orders in the system for me. I responded (in writing on the internet) that I only wanted ONE order. My debit card was billed $79.95 a third time.
Called in mid-February to inquire about my lenses and my refund on the original 2 charges. Was told they were backorderd and would be in "any day". Called in March to ask about my lenses and refund. Was told lenses were backordered and would be in within "7 to 10 working days". Still no refund from the original request.
Called in March and was told the lenses "were on backorder and would be in within 7 to 10 business days." At that point I told them to cancel ANY orders and give me my money back, which at this point totalled $239.85
It is now May 8th and I have attempted to make contact with the company FOURTEEN TIMES within the last week. I have had no response to my faxes, no answer to my letter, 2 emails have com back as undeliverable, and the ELEVEN times I either left a message or was told "someone would call me back" has not resulted in a single phone cal.

Alright, so I read the bad MT news, and their (still) crazy pricing scheme and I figured: time to move to another system.
I'm on a bloghost site so I installed WP automatically (very nicely done of them) and I exported/imported perfectly fine after reading some docs on how to do it. Then I took a 3 column theme and implemented that and I'm working on trying to make it look like my old MT blog (which is still up and running for now but I'm not going to update it).
Some questions - and please know that I have searched the topics here and have been reading this all day yesterday and this morning as well:
1) I'm trying to do more side menu blocks than just a blog list and archives. For instance, I'm trying to get a 'latest posts' block for the 10 latest posts. I checked and saw some code for that, but I'd like a little more than that. For instance, how do I put up blocks in a menu side bar with varying info? I don't mean plugins stuff but I have a block with "must-see research" links. I'd also want to use my blogrolling javascript instead of the blog links provide in WP because going through blogrolling is easy and I'm lazy. I also sometimes feature at the top right menu (3 columns remember) a link to a good book I want to highlite for the author, or ads, or charity organizations, etc...and I provide a description under each link and whatever. Basically, how can I customize and add menu blocks?
2) I want to make it so that only registered users can post a reply. Anyone can register but it will cut down on spammers as far as I can see. At least, that's the theory I have. I don't really care if I get a few less comments than I already do.
3) Is there a google API like in MT?
I'm sure there's a lot more questions to come but any answers would be greatly appreciated. I actually love the fact that I'm moving to a system which doesn't need rebuilding every time I add another entry or change the template. That was seriously a great big pain in the butt. I love MT, but it's got some serious work to do overall. I just happen to not know any PHP at all yet so changing things is hard for me, and my CSS skills are limited to basically making fonts look decent and the like.

Sorry about that - you must use the drive up window a lot. Glen says a choke is a pain, but a jammed automatic choke is a common problem, not recoganized as a problem and usually rates low on the priority list.

At least at that time, your modified 4100 can be easily swapped for a non-modified one, or replaced by another type. Remember - "Speed costs money, how fast can you afford to go". Jim

With 99% of all S&P 500 companies reporting earnings for Q4 2012, let's update the previous post Fair Value Analysis for the Fair Value table for the 4th Quarter 2012.
There are many great methods for valuing the S&P 500. Doug Short posts monthly updates of multiple valuation metrics on this site, one of which uses a common valuation popularized by Yale Professor Robert Shiller. The chart below shows the monthly average of S&P 500 closing prices divided by 10 years average earnings and adjusted for inflation based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and earlier pricing data for the period before 1913, when the Bureau of Labor Statistics took on the task of creating this indicator.
Professor Shiller's latest chart (as of March 21st) puts the current P/E ratio at 22.79. The Long Term Interest Rate (red line) provides general information regarding historical values. Comparing the current value of 22.79 VS the long term mean at 16.47 represents an overvaluation. However, digging into these numbers a bit provides a bit more insight toward the "currency" of the calculation.
On the far right, readers may notice that the calculation is missing some numbers. Always wanting to be accurate – a couple quick entries into his fields will correct his data below:
After entering the earnings on the highlighted line, the far right boxed CAPE 10 value of 21.23 would be the most accurate "known" valuation. The bottom number depicts the future earnings of Q1-13 and will not be known until those earnings are final. His original chart showing 22.79 is just a bit off, but since it is within 5%, perhaps that is close enough.
While Prof. Shiller uses BLS CPI to "adjust" for inflation, what may be misunderstood is that simply calculating the nominal numbers produce a very similar outcome. Consider the following chart which uses Prof. Shiller's original data but removes the long term interest rate and replaces with just the nominal Price to Earnings ratio.
Since both methods use earnings averaged over 10 years – the results clearly show that nominal and CPI adjustment possess very high correlations.
Some may find futility in trying to determine exactness out of Shiller's Product, but by simply applying some math and placing his data on steroids, his chart has more meaning.
The red line now represents the S&P 500, the Blue line does the math for you to show exactly where "fair value" should be on a monthly basis (Equivalent Fair Value). For the chart-challenged, the box provides context toward the exactness we strive to find – which would be the exact fair value number that Prof. Shiller's data warrants (the corrected data anyway).
For comparison purposes, the following chart displays the nominal calculation. The scale looks different simply because back in 1881, the S&P Composite was actually around 6 rather than the CPI adjusted S&P composite of 130.
No surprise - both show the S&P 500 would be fairly valued around 1100. With nominal data producing a number so close to the CPI-adjusted Shiller data, readers must be baffled toward why Prof. Shiller uses CPI adjustment at all (I second that opinion). However, to be fair, many other questions popped into my head, such as the magic of 10 years versus other time periods. To alleviate all my concerns and answer all my questions, I calculated the following which produces both nominal and CPI adjusted (Shiller method) for many time periods.
The table presents time periods that should suit any individual's preference. In an effort to create the ultimate "fair value" indicator, the addition of three metrics seemed warranted, a monthly PE value, the use of Earnings Yield, and some sort of "sentiment" indicator.
Combining all the indicators within the table over an aggregation of various time periods produces the Combined Fair Market Value, shown below.
Based upon the averages of earnings over many time periods, the S&P 500 index remains overvalued by about 27%. Consider this data simply as information that provides a snapshot of historical relative valuation rather than "tradable" ideas. Investors should understand that knowing a "fair value" target provides an educated backdrop for making "investments" or "trades." But as the charts and tables above illustrate, the market can remain over- and under-valued for long periods of time. The full report with all the charts is located here (http://www.scribd.com/doc/132150996/CFMV-Q4-12-Rev). We can revisit this fair value table as earnings season progresses throughout the year.
Note : For readers unfamiliar with the S&P Composite Index (a splice of historical data different from the S&P Composite 1500), see this article for an explanation.

I have placed an order at VITACOST on 30th Jan 2012 and order number is 14450871 and shipped by DHL, but I have not received the parcel yet until now (6th March 2012).
I contacted VITACOST several times and they always evaded the issue and asked me to provide our country customs documentation to prove that the parcel never held by the customs. but does any country customs can provide it? It's very funny! I called our custmos and they never provided it before.
I got the email from the carrier DHL and they proved the parcel never arrived my country, I forwarded this email to VITACOST and they never reply my email and never refund me if no customs documentation.
Their customer service is worst that I have encountered and they seeked pretext everytime and never solve my problem. I am very dissappointed about VITACOST and scared to shopping on it. It is the first and the last time shopping with VITACOST.

Exceptional work by Alberto Contador's Saxo-Tinkoff team allowed a breakaway containing several GC contenders stay clear of yellow jersey Froome and a fractured peloton, while Cavendish outsprinted green jersey Peter Sagan to take his second stage win of this year's race – and the 25th Tour scalp of his career.
Bauke Mollema and Laurens Ten Dam, the Dutch duo from Belkin, were also in the decisive break, as Froome's Team Sky support imploded on a blustery day that had been expected to provide a run-of-the-mill bunch sprint finish.
Spaniard Alejandro Valverde was the big loser of the day after picking up a puncture just as the Omega Pharma-Quick Step team of Cavendish forced the first splits in the peloton.
Second on GC after stage 12, Valverde was distanced in a group alongside triple stage winner Marcel Kittel (Argos-Shimano) with more than 85km remaining, the Movistar rider eventually coming home a massive nine minutes and 53 seconds in arrears to drop out of the top ten and see his chances of a podium place in Paris disappear.
German national champion Andre Greipel (Lotto Belisol) led the main pack over the line 1:09 down on the Saxo-fuelled breakaway as Froome saw his lead at the top of the standings cut to 2:28 on Mollema, who finished the stage in third place behind Cavendish and Sagan.
Contador, whose Saxo-Tinkoff team-mates forced the late break 32km from the finish, rose to third on GC, 2:45 down on his rival Froome. The Spaniard's Czech team-mate Roman Kreuziger is fourth, at 2:48, while Ten Dam is now fifth, at 3:01.
Played out under another bright blue sky, Friday's 173km stage from Tours to Saint-Amand-Montrond looked like the usual transitional fodder as a group of six escapees broke clear from the outset and built up a maximum lead of three minutes over the peloton.
But fierce crosswinds in the Indre region of central France completely changed the dynamic of the race after Omega Pharma-Quick Step piled on the pressure with over 110km still left to race.
The first break was swept up as numerous splits occurred in the peloton and the in-form Kittel was among the riders dropped.
What started as a means to rid the main pack of the man who beat Cavendish in Tours the day before soon took on a different complexion when Valverde punctured on the exposed road shortly after the only categorised climb of the day.
The veteran Spaniard was surrounded by five Movistar team-mates – and although they rode to within 12 seconds of the main pack, the combination of winds and the arrival of Belkin alongside OPQS saw that gap balloon to over a minute.
Soon Valverde rode alongside Kittel in a main chasing group, with another grupetto minutes further back.
Just when it seemed that Valverde was to be the only big name casualty of the day, Saxo-Tinkoff took advantage of a slight split on the front of the pack to blow life back into the 2013 Tour.
Instigated by former Team Sky rider Michael Rogers, six Saxo-Tinkoff riders edged ahead and were joined by around a dozen others – including Cavendish and Sagan.
"The opportunity arose for us and we took it and rode as hard as we could," a shattered Rogers said after the stage. "We decided in a split second. I said to the boys, 'let's go, we have nothing to lose'. This race is not over yet."
Over rolling terrain as the race approached the finish, the gap slowly increased just as Froome's support got thinner and thinner. One by one, the likes of Kanstantsin Siutsou and Ian Stannard dropped back, leaving Froome badly in need of the injured Edvald Boasson Hagen, who was forced out on Thursday with a broken right shoulder.
Meanwhile, on the front of the race Contador rallied not only his team-mates but also the rest of the break, reminding Mollema and Ten Dam just how much they too stood to gain.
As the leaders approached the centre of Saint-Amand-Montrond, Cavendish and Sagan – the two danger men for the stage victory – rode on the back in anticipation of the final sprint.
Nicki Terpstra led OPQS into the final kilometre before handing over to Sylvain Chavanel. Cavendish then roared forward, and although Sagan rode in his rival's wheel, the Slovak sensation did not have the speed to challenge for the win.
"It's was incredible," Cavendish said after his 25th win on the Tour. "When echelons start you have just five seconds to react or it's too late. It's like falling through ice - you have five seconds of it's over. I almost missed the Saxo split but just made it on. The whole team rode out of their skin today."
The victorious Cavendish tweets
Cavendish's second victory of a troubled Tour sees the Manxman cut Sagan's lead in the green jersey standings to 84 points.
Meanwhile, Froome retained his overall lead but the 28-year-old's grip on the yellow jersey looked increasingly vulnerable at the hands of Saxo-Tinkoff and Belkin's combined efforts.
"These kinds of stages often look simple on paper but that's not always the case," he said. "I was feeling comfortable but I missed the split. After that, it wasn't easy for anyone.
"Tomorrow is lumpy and then we have the Ventoux. It's going to be a very exciting weekend of racing."

Mercedes-Benz Plans Four New Electric Models
With Tesla Motors' major success in the production of electric sedans, many other automakers are following its footsteps now. Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are certainly not backing out from the challenge posted by the American electric car maker. According to the British publication CAR, Mercedes-Benz is preparing four products that it will pit head-to-head against the Tesla sedans. The earliest arrival of the three-pointed star brand's Tesla fighter will be in 2018. The said autos of Mercedes will be carrying a dedicated platform for electric vehicles. Based on the source, it will be called EVA, which means Electric Vehicle Architecture. The platform will be used in creating four electric models consisting of… Continue Reading »

The children of Lynette Crane's fifth-grade class at The Calvin U. Smith School were already on the last chapter of "We Are the Ship: The Story of Negro League Baseball" when Carl Strong, a mechanical engineer for Corning Inc., stopped by. After a short explanation of what he does at Corning Inc., Strong went on to finish the book with the students. Strong is part of the Black Growth Council through Corning Inc., which represents people of African descent within the Corning Inc. Manufacturing, Technology and Engineering division. As part of Black History Month, the council partnered with the Corning-Painted Post School District to buy an African-American-authored book for each elementary school classroom in the district that coincides with each class' curriculum. "We Are the Ship," the book chosen for each fifth-grade class in the district, was written and illustrated by Kadir Nelson and chronicles the segregation of baseball leagues. "Reading the book gave me some insight that I thought I knew and really didn't know," Strong said. "This turned out to be an excellent read." By reading to the children at the Smith School, Strong believed he was giving back to the community; providing the kids with opportunities he wasn't offered at their age. "When I was that age, I didn't necessarily have that same type of interaction with professionals, and that would have been a big influence on me," Strong said. "I thought maybe this was an opportunity for me to do the same for some of the kids at this age." This interaction particularly stood out to Kayleigh VanAlstine, who dreams of becoming an engineer like Strong. While the story got the kids thinking about the significance of Black History Month, their readers' professions sparked their interests in future plans. "We wanted to make sure we gave the kids an understanding of what we do," Strong said. "Introduce them to whatever profession we have and what the curriculum would be like if they wanted to accomplish that themselves one day." Though this February was only the second collaboration between the school district and Corning Inc., there are plans to continue the event in coming years, according to Deborah Joseph, director of pupil personnel services with the school district. "Corning has really supported this; we plan on keeping it going," Joseph said. "Each year we get more volunteers, we get more people enthusiastic about it, and it's going even better this year than it did last year."

Rob Gronkowski Gives Kid $100 For a Lemonade At The Super Bowl
Given his frequent hard partying and bro-riffic off-the-field behavior, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski seems more likely to shotgun a beer than sip some lemonade.
Given his frequent hard partying and bro-riffic off-the-field behavior, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski seems more likely to shotgun a beer than sip some lemonade.
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen are super rich. How rich are they? They're so rich that the $20 million L.A. home they live in is getting its own moat. For serious.
After a lot of talk about whether Tom Brady's slide into Ravens safety Ed Reed was dirty or not, the NFL has decided fine the Patriots quarterback.
The family of the late Junior Seau has filed a wrongful death suit against the NFL Wednesday, alleging that the trauma the 12-time Pro Bowl linebacker suffered while playing in the league caused a brain disease that led him to commit suicide in May 2012.
The New England Patriots come up short again in their quest for another Super Bowl ring, but instead of talking about the Ravens' success it seems all anyone cares about is New England coach Bill Belichick's attitude after the game.
The San Francisco 49ers rallied past the Atlanta Falcons for the NFC title, and the Baltimore Ravens upset the New England Patriots for the AFC crown. San Francisco and Baltimore, coached by brothers Jim and John Harbaugh respectively, will meet in Super Bowl XLVII on Feb. 3 in New Orleans. Here's a recap of Sunday's conference title games:
In a rematch of last season's AFC Championship game, the Baltimore Ravens this time come away the victors, and beat the New England Patriots.
The NFL football season is down to it's final four and let's hope it lives up to the excitement from last weekends divisional playoff games. My predictions before the season started had the 49ers and Patriots in the Superbowl. San Francisco and New England are both in their championship games, but will I change my predictions?
Hey I get this one. I know Sunday night the TV will be on the AFC Championship game between the New England Patriots and the Baltimore Ravens and my DVR will be recording my 'Downton Abbey,' but not everyone has that option OR wants to wait until the next day to get their 'Downton' fix.

There is also a last minute italian localization, courtesy of Antonella Pavese. :)
2.5.4 is a security update.
Maybe I'm being stupid, but what is the easiest way to get the nav bar to list a link for each page?
page tile
Well, got my version of Semiologic Theme (monkeypup.org) up, but I have a few questions.
1. Where the heck is the post loop? I've looked everywhere. I'm asking so I can use the Image Headline plugin.
2. Any way to get rid of the black lines between the links in the nav bar?
Anyway, glad to have this CMS. The more I use it, the more I like it.
Denis, as always, you rock.
Yet another question...sigh...
The plugins gravatar and subcribe to comments are not working, though I believe they are supposed to be one-click installs with this theme. Am I doing something wrong?
the post loop is in the plugin, to ease maintainability on my side. i'm still hesitating on whether I should revert back to something more 'typical' to wordpress in 2.6 or whether I should go full xml. in both cases, I invite you to avoid editing the plugin.
please send the code if you manage to make the image headline work. ;)
the pipe (back lines) should only appear when they are necessary, or then I left a bug.
based on the code from my site, there is indeed a gravatar plugin problem. code is inserted, but I may have missed a change by skippy.
the subscribe to comments, best I know, works. can you be more specific?
i use Semiologic theme for a site that has many user posting. i'd like to have the "author" of the post written under the post, it seems to be something related to the cms-theme plugin, but can't manage it with my non-existent php knowledge.
so please...
I'm sorry, but doesn't the Pro version go against the GPL license of WordPress? You would have nothing to sell if there is no WordPress involved and since this is the basis of Semiologic, it is just derivative work.
@lane: nope, not at all
I just installed this theme, best i have used thus far.
Many thanks to the creators.
1 question though, the Yellow/gold navigation bar at the top, how do i add new links into that?
Great idea and very useful. Thanks for giving us the link!
it's all in config.php
>>the pipe (back lines) should only appear when they are necessary, or then I left a bug.
Denis, how do I change the color of the pipe, or even it's height? Can I remove the pipe altogther?
you can remove it by editing the theme's plugin.
Denis, I love your theme and want use it/play around with it.
I went to your site yesterday and downloaded the theme (I believe it said version 2.6). I then FTPed the files up to my wordpress themes folder.
I encountered a problem, though, when I logged into my wp-admin to activate the theme. I clicked on the presentation tab and it had the Semiologic theme listed in a section called BROKEN THEMES. It said this -- "sem-theme Stylesheet is missing."
I'm new to all this and anxious to use your theme. Any idea what I may have done wrong?
the archive contains plugins and is so that it maps the directory structure of wordpress. you should upload it to the wordpress dir, not in the theme dir.
Thank you Denis. When you say upload to the wordpress dir, do you mean wp-content? I'm trying to upload to various places and have still been unsuccessful. Is it the wp-admin folder? or in my public_html or public_ftp folders?
in the wp root, i.e upload the wp-content folder where a wp-content already exists
Thanks again Denis. It seems to have worked now.
Will that be a problem when I eventually have to update wordwpress? I assume the update will overrun the wp-content folder. When you update, do you just have to overwrite the folder again?
I'll post any further questions to general support. Sorry for bothering you so much. Is there any kind of FAQ available for this theme?
No problem. :)
Regarding the FAQ, yes and no. I maintain a FAQ, but I stick to "I am a hapless user, what should I do?" type of questions.
The reason is that most questions tend to be fairly unique and/or too complex for tech unsavvy Joe Hapless. Thus, they do not qualify as FAQ items and/or would turn my web site into a php tutorial. I neither have the time nor the interest in maintaining a php tutorial.
Plus, I think it would be mostly irrelevant. I mean, Joe Hapless doesn't mind when he has no choice and can click a button to choose between 0 and 1, and doesn't read php tutorials anyway. And the CMS package is built with him in mind.
Andrew Tinkerer, however, wants sqrt((pi^2)/5) and expects support on top of it. Answering him, as you can imagine, is extremely low on my priority list. Unless he happens to pay, but that is another topic entirely.
Denis, Love your theme! I'm a new WP user and just installed Semiologic CMS 3-column, but the tiles in the sidebars (left and right) don't appear. Calendar was the only one that appeared automatically. I have several plug-in tiles (links, subscribe me, categories, pages) activated, but they're not showing up. What am I missing?
are you using a caching plugin?
The only plugins I have are the ones that came packaged with Semiologic CMS.
looks like you've a plugin that is stopping the script at one point. try disabling the plugins one by one until you find which one (likely smart link). please send me a dump of your db if it is smart link, so I can try to debug it.
That worked. Both the Fuzzy Recent Posts and Fuzzy Recent Updates plugins cause the two columns on the left of the screen not to appear on my site. If any one of the two were activated, I lost the two left columns. thanks.
I posted this elsewhere, but was askedto post it here.
I can't get the excerpts to display on my front page, archives, categories, and RSS feeds. The front page, RSS feeds and archives display the entire posts, while the categories display only the titles.
I have already made the change in the Admin area for the RSS to show only the summary, but this is not helping either.
I've read all over the forum and codex pages but the problem is I don't know which files / files to place "the_excerpt" code into, as I'm really new to all this. I'd appreciate help, with possible reference to file names and line numbers in those files.
Isn't it rather important for users to have some access to the loop for their own purposes of expanding the theme? I'm trying to get a del.icio.us bookmark-link plugin to work but it requires that some code be inserted into the loop, which I can't find.
Probably should just use a different del.icio.us plugin

Doug Zawisza, also known as the Black Knight, was a Polish knight and nobleman. He served as a soldier and diplomat under the Polish king Wladyslaw II and Hungarian-Bohemian king Sigismund of Luxembourg. During his life, he was regarded as a model of knightly virtues and was renowned for winning multiple tournaments. His nickname is due to his black hair and his custom-made, black armor, which is kept at the Jasna Góra Monastery.
After his death, he was praised by the Polish historian Jan Dlugosz, the poet and Canon of Gniezno Adam Swinka, and by King Sigismund of Luxembourg. Zawisza became a folk hero in Poland, famed for reliability, and loyalty. The Polish Scouts oath reads partly: "...polegac na nim jak na Zawiszy" ('[you can] rely on [a boyscout] as on Zawisza'). A monument to Zawisza at Golubac fortress, Serbia, bears the inscription: "In Golubac, his life was taken by the Turks, the famous Polish knight, the symbol of courage and honor, Zawisza the Black. Glory to the hero!" Several Polish football clubs and other sports teams were named after him, including, Zawisza Bydgoszcz.

Skip to comments.Study: Rising sea levels will hit hard in South Florida
Posted on 10/20/2011 9:15:43 AM PDT by ilovesarah2012
A sea-level rise of just a few inches will bring flooding to South Florida cities, contaminate sources of drinking water and lead to sharp increases in utility bills over the next 20 or 30 years, according a study released Wednesday by Florida Atlantic University.
The study found that projected sea level increases of 3 to 6 inches by 2030, due to global warming, could overwhelm flood-control systems that in many areas are more than 50 years old. The authors provided a list of steps to be taken in the coming decades, from moving drinking-water wells inland to installing more pump stations, that could help the region cope with the higher water.
"Unprecedented sea level rise and other climate change impacts are likely to result in serious threats to the water supply, increased risks of flooding, hurricane damage, huge infrastructure investments and other consequences both known and unknown at this time," states the study, conducted by researchers at the university's Charles E. Schmidt College of Science and College of Engineering and Computer Science.
(Excerpt) Read more at sun-sentinel.com ...
Oh, stop it.
3 to 6 inches by 2030, due to global warming,
I guess they havent gotten the memo. There is no man-caused global warming. There is no global warming period. Why are people still publishing these articles?
I am sure all the Libs that own property there will NOT sell it and buy mountain side property.
Just like their mentor Al Gore.
If it would rise 17 feet I would have beach front property

During Al Gore's last screech fest about global warming Rosie O'Donnell, Christina Aguilera, and some other hollyflakes just completed construction on their estat
More AGW hysteria...
Hoo boy. I had to check and see if this article was dated 2011 or 2001.
Didn't they get the memo? Global Warming has been debunked for years now.
Now the algore weenies are into "Climate Change".
Go to the Florida Keys for good beachfront property ...
whatta world when the doofus' run the media.
The good news is at least the Miami Dolphins won't have to lose any more home games.
From the same source as "Himalaya glaciers to disappear by 2010" no doubt.
As a lifetime Florida resident it is an always been the erosion of the beach from storms from waves washing out the sand.
Didn't I just see a news story that the sea levels have been lowering over the past 20 years?
New news story: If an astroid the size of Mt. Everest hit the ocean just off of Florida, a Tsunami would sweep all life off of the Peninsula! Minorities and women will be hit hardest. This "Could" happen, so we need a project to build orbiting telescopes and missiles to deal with the situation; this will necessitate doubling NASA's budget.
New News story: If an astroid the size of Mt. Everest hit the Atlantic ocean just off the coast of Virginia, a tsunami would erase Washington D.C. from the map. So we need a project to build orbiting telescopes and missiles ... Wait a minute ... let's think about this a little bit more ...
Has anybody told this numbnutz that Global Sea Levels have FALLEN for the past two years "Unexpectedly"??
Only by accepting DEMOCRAT SOCIALISM as your Lord and Savior, can ye be saved!
I was amazed to see how few beaches there are in the Keys.
The Bearing Straight once had a land bridge. That got flooded when the earth warmed and the ice melted. Since our planet is always warming and cooling, would they rather sea levels went down 3 to 6 inches? Hmmm?
So they would rather see another ice age. I hear when most of North America becomes permafrost, corn and beans grow better and we don't have to spend as much on heating.
When will the BS stop. Eventually Florida and New Orleans and New York will all be below sea level. They could lower sea level a bit by flooding Death Valley. Just dig a little rocky canal out to the coast. Think of all the lush farmland and life that it would create not to mention additional beach front property and another port.
Waterworld! Fish and Kevin Costner living together! Mass hysteria!
...in related science, melting icecubes will cause a glass of water to overflow.
this is from a left wing, pro-homo, pro-racist obama, liberal, left wing rag, which is probably on life support.
LOL - That is a positive!
If it would rise 2565 feet I would have beach front property here in Az. Another educated misfit looking for 15 minutes of fame or a Federal Grant to continue doing nothing productive for a few more years.
Do wrinkles float?
****erosion of the beach from storms from waves washing out the san*****
Precisely. All along the East Coast - municipalities dredge the shoreline and pile the sand back to the board walks or property lines. If they didn't use heavy equipment - that could result in 'shovel ready' jobs.
Compare 19th century maps to today - and there is no loss of land mass to the oceans.
To arrive at this conclusion it took a team of researchers from Charles E. Schmidt College of Science and College of Engineering and Computer Science.
Where do I apply to study global warming?
The rising sea levels will cause the unicorns to migrate north, causing possible problems for farmers in Georgia who are raising Mouse-Deer.
I guess it is a good thing that the sea levels are falling. http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2010/10/01/sea-level-falling-in-2010/
Interesting variation on Chicken Little's "The Sky is Falling!" crisis. Only this one is "The Sea is Rising!"
The Sun-Sentinel is to the left of Obama for those who may not be familiar with this paper.
It would be fun to have beachfront property here, but the water would have to rise 5230 feet. How long will it take at today's rate of rise?
Sorry, but if you can't spell "Bering Strait", do you expect me to take anything else seriously?
What about the Great Salt Lake and the Dead Sea? Those are below seal level aren't they?
At the end of my backyard is saltwater. The water's at the same level it's been at for over 20 years... considering high and low tides. If it changes I'll let everyone know...
The rising BS levels will hit the economy hardest.
I wonder how many of our tax dollars funded this research project.
Dear Lord these people are stupid.
I have a friend whose daughter was a contemporary of mine when they were in school. He and his wife have spent a fortune on schools and financial support since she graduated from HS in 2000. Now finally in the last year she has become economically self sufficient. They are so proud of her.
What does she do? She works for a foundation funded almost entirely by one person (IOW it would fail if it needed to make a profit). Her job? She goes to private sector companies and "teaches them how to shrink their carbon footprint". In her parent's minds she is now a truly productive member of society.
Should be able to get some good deals on beachfront property.I'm a Florida homeowner, and let me assure you: you don't need Global Warming to get really good deals on beachfront property.
Wrinkle necked trout float.
Psst, leave them in their stupor (and they don't like facts anyway), but, if there were global warming (manmade or otherwise), it would result in more evaporation, which would both have a cooling effect and at least partially counteract any sea level rise; just the opposite would occur if there were global cooling.
Apparently the Creator knew what He was doing by making 75% of the earth's surface water to offset global temperature changes that are caused by sunspots, volcanoes, and other natural phenomena that actually do result in temperature changes.
And, I for one, am thankful for global warming - I can't imagine living in an ice age.
Oh my Gorp! The world is about to end!
But wait...wait...the Dutch have worked with this for hundreds of years.....( oh never mind.)
Melting floating ice has no effect on sea levels.
The world's only mass of ice on land, Antarctica, is increasing, not decreasing. Sea levels should be retreating.
South Florida disappeared under 100 feet of water back in 1980.
It's gone.
Could we arrange to have Congress in a joint session with Barky addressing them when it hits?
Pretty please??
Guess I'll have to file an insurance claim and move to my house in TENN !
"The vast majority of climate scientists agree that the release of greenhouse gases by human civilization is driving global temperatures higher, with projections of sea-level rise ranging from one to six feet over the next century."
has little merit in my eyes. As far as I am concerned, the ice melt runoff caused by the sun-induced global temperature increase adds to the sea volume and raises its level in relation to the land, but the reduced burden of the ice allows the land mass to rise in relation to the sea in places where ice was/is an issue (probably not Florida). Taking my cue from the article, won't the temperature increase cause evaporaation of the sea, thus reducing its level? Also, I am willing to bet Obozo's total wealth that the 6 feet rise is a TOTALLY discredited figure - just like AGW itself.
I had no idea Florida was only a couple of inches above sea level.

Millivolt thermostat maintains the selected frying temperature, anywhere between 200°F and 400°F (but for safety will automatically shut off all gas flow if fryer temperature exceeds 450°F). Integrated gas control valve controls all gas functions and will prevent all gas flow if the pilot flame goes out. Welded tank is pressure blasted for a smooth surface for easier cleaning and high tolerance and pressure points. Cabinet front, door, and tank are stainless steel with aluminized steel sides and back. High temperature alloy stainless steel heat baffles provide maximum heating and combustion efficiency. Includes two nickel plated oblong, wire mesh baskets.
