So, Friendly McFrienderton (my friend Luke) offers to drive me to the airport AND pick me up there next month whence I return. He just up and offered to do so! I told him I would repay him and decided that payment would be this box I made recently. There is nothing fancy on the inside which is why I didn't add a photo of an empty cavity. The lid sits on the box frame with nothing more than a simple 1/4" X 1/4" rabbet. The design is straightforward and simple. 45 degree joints on the frame and a flush-mounted, glued-on bottom. Woods used are poplar for the lid and handle, maple for the box frame, and walnut for the bottom. I saw the piece of wood that I fashioned that handle with in the garbage at work and said, "Oh no! That little diamond in the rough is coming with me!" And so it did, and what you see before you on the screen are poplar colors at their finest. That's why I love poplar so much even if it is considered a low-quality wood. Whatever. I do what I want! Oh, and I've been finishing a lot of my boxes recently with mineral oil. It's quick, easy, seals the wood, and brings the wood to life.
Questions, comments, or cries of heart-wrenching despair?

Love this box. Simple elegance. You were right on the money about the handle scrap! It looks much better on that box than in a trash can. I am sure your friend will love it. Thanks for the tip on the mineral oil use.

The handle reminds me of one those super speed jet cars that they run on the salt flats and the rest of the box matches that sleekness. Very cool.

That's a nice box and has a certain amount of character about it.

Big budget leads to more draft risks
by Jim Callis
CHICAGO--A year after I conducted my first draft for Baseball America, a big league club has yet to offer me a job as scouting director.
I can't say that I'm overly impressed with my initial crop of selections either.
Last year, I made picks at what would have been the end of each of the first 10 rounds. I didn't peek and see where the players actually were selected, and I didn't allow myself to load up on players with questionable signability. I assumed a reasonable signing budget of $3.75 million.
I was elated with my first-round pick, outfielder Ryan Sweeney, who tore up big league camp with the White Sox this spring before settling into a so-so season in high Class A. My fourth-rounder, Blue Jays righthander Justin James, is pitching promisingly well in low Class A.
The rest of my draftees have mostly stagnated: Cubs catcher Tony Richie (second round), Astros righty Cliff Davis (third), Padres righty Clark Girardeau (fifth), Clemson first baseman Andy D'Alessio (sixth; I came up with $500,000 to sign him), Devil Rays shortstop Matt Maniscalco (seventh), Red Sox outfielder Chris Durbin (eighth) and Tigers outfielder Michael Brown (ninth). I wasn't able to sign infielder Myron Leslie (10th), who returned to South Florida for his senior year.
Undaunted, I'll take another shot with the 2004 draft, hopefully benefiting from lessons learned. I was too conservative, as my nine signees would have cost a little more than $2.9 million. And picking 31st is no fun, so this time I chose a random mid-round draft slot and wound up with No. 21.
Zeal For Zeringue
As the draft approached, I started to get intrigued by Florida high school third baseman Billy Butler, who's not much of an athlete but is a masher who can produce for power and average. I thought he'd make a tremendous second-round choice and even toyed with the idea of trying to make a statement by popping him at No. 21--and then the Royals cut a predraft deal with him seven picks ahead of me.
That made my decision easier. I never understood why Louisiana State outfielder Jon Zeringue didn't merit much first-round discussion, especially in a draft short on position-player talent, so I'll put my money where my mouth is by selecting him.
He hits for power, he hits for average, runs well for his size (6-foot-2, 205 pounds) and has a strong right-field arm. The Diamondbacks stole him in the real draft's second round at No. 56 overall.
Thanks to the compensation choices in the sandwich round, my second pick doesn't arrive until No. 62. That's just in time, because my target, Wisconsin high school righthander Erik Cordier, went 63rd to the Royals. A projectable 6-foot-3, 197-pounder Cordier was lights out in his first outing this spring, showing an 89-95 mph fastball and two other plus big league pitches in 43-degree weather.
I also nab my third-rounder, Virginia lefthander Andrew Dobies, just in time at No. 92, three picks ahead of where he went to the Red Sox. Dobies has a clean delivery and keeps hitters off balance with a combination of 85-88 mph fastballs, cutters and changeups. He should reach the majors as fast as any of my draftees.
Gamble In The 10th
My next two picks are college bats, James Madison outfielder Mike Butia (Indians, fifth round) and Clemson third baseman Brad McCann (Marlins, sixth). Butia is similar to Zeringue, and while not as athletic may possess more raw power. McCann, the older brother of Braves catching prospect Brian McCann, also has a potent bat and I'm betting that he'll be able to stay at the hot corner.
I usually like my prospects to have more of a track record than 21 innings for a Southwestern Athletic Conference club, but Southern righty Jason Quarles (Pirates, seventh) has stuff too good to ignore in the sixth. An outfielder who hit .397 at Glen Oak (Mich.) CC in 2003, Quarles hit the mid-90s regularly and flashed a devastating curveball after moving to the mound for the Jaguars.
Looking for some up-the-middle talent, I tab Oral Roberts shortstop Grant Plumley (Yankees, ninth) and Arizona catcher Richard Mercado (Diamondbacks, 12th) as my seventh- and eighth-rounders. Plumley made just four errors in 61 games and should be able to hit after some minor mechanical adjustments. Mercado has good all-around defensive skills and a nice approach at the plate.
I'll save a little money in the ninth round with Montclair State senior lefty Jeff Gogal (Marlins, 12th), who oozes pitchability and nearly went through the entire Cape Cod League season without allowing an earned run last summer. At this point, my first nine picks should cost me roughly $3.2 million.
Given that I was so under budget in 2003, I'm going to take a high-price gamble in the 10th round: Georgia Tech righthander/DH Micah Owings (Cubs, 19th). Owings' hard sinker and power bat make him a second-round talent as a pitcher and hitter, and he might be able to play third base if not the outfield. He fell because of signability, but I'll do my best to sign him for second-round money by the end of the summer.
We'll check back at Draft Report Card time in the fall to see if how I fared with Owings and the rest of my selections. I took nine collegians and just one high schooler, though that's just the way my draft board fell and not reflective of a pronounced preference for college players.

That's the message behind the book Christian Youth: It's Cool to Believe in God for Love, Acceptance, Friendship, Protection and Direction, and that's the message of our Christian motivational speakers. Could one of our speakers help you share just the right words at just the right time with the people who matter most to you?
How could your youth conference or church benefit from a Christian speaker for youth when you already have a great youth minister and a pastor who confidently offers the Word every week? The answer is simple: youth are often more willing to accept advice and counsel from outsiders than from those they know. The distance does them good. And we all benefit from a change of pace, a new voice, a different kind of vision and another perspective.
Through our "Be Inspired to Live for God™ !" Christian speaker offerings, we take the message of our book and our lives to those who need to hear it — into youth groups, Sunday morning services and more. We bring a unique perspective on the Bible that provides some variety from your usual programs and outside reinforcement of your church or religious organization's core message.
In addition, motivational speakers are all the rage in community groups, local organizations and even businesses today. Through our wider "Be Inspired to Live™ !" program offerings, we provide the same powerful and uplifting messages with less focus on the Christian concepts. It's a positive force in the world that meets people where they are and offers uplifting words in a secular context that could be just what's needed to help understand our message for those who wouldn't otherwise hear it.
Want to know what we're all about? Read Christian Youth: It's Cool to Believe in God for Love, Acceptance, Friendship, Protection and Direction. It's the cornerstone of our work and the basis for what we do. Get your copy now through Amazon, the world's largest and most respected bookstore. It will help you understand our message of hope and power through God in all of life's situations.
Then, contact us for information about how we can bring the book's message and other uplifting messages to you and your organization.
Through the book, this website and these fun, interesting and overwhelmingly positive messages, we can change the world for the better, one youth — one person — at a time.

Broman made the offer in this post on Craigslist. No takers as of late in the week, the Fort Collins Coloradoan reports. Go figure.

Market "leaders"
Walmart isn't the only "leader" in the race to the bottom. Here's a story how the tomato pickers in Florida have been screwed by Burger King after it reneged on a deal to give them an extra penny per bucket. This is not about profits, it is about control, the same thing that motivates the top brass at Walmart. Is there any rational reason why managers have to get up at ungodly hours and fly to nowheresville Arkansas to attend meetings other than to demean them? Wouldn't it be more efficient and cost effective if they held the meeting by video conference and submitted their reports electronically? No, they have to kiss the ring to prove their subservience. Here the story from the NY Times. This is the best part:
Telling Burger King to pay an extra penny for tomatoes and provide a decent wage to migrant workers would hardly bankrupt the company. Indeed, it would cost Burger King only $250,000 a year. At Goldman Sachs, that sort of money shouldn't be too hard to find. In 2006, the bonuses of the top 12 Goldman Sachs executives exceeded $200 million — more than twice as much money as all of the roughly 10,000 tomato pickers in southern Florida earned that year. Now Mr. Blankfein should find a way to share some of his company's good fortune with the workers at the bottom of the food chain.The lessons that were learned a century ago about the need for workers to organize seem to need to be relearned. Democracy is not an end it is a living thing which needs constant tending. Worker associations are the most democratic institutions. They are the only sector which starts from the bottom up and gets to influence public policy. No wonder they are hated by the autocrats who run big firms, which are the least democratic public institutions. A perfect example can be seen in today's ruling by the SEC that stockholders can't place the names of candidates for the board of directors on the proxy statement. The SEC has just told the owners that they don't have any say in how their own firm is run. For the wonks, here's the story: S.E.C. Bars Investors' Directors Walmart is an example of a bad actor, but it wouldn't be able to get away with the things it does if there wasn't an environment that supports this type of management already in place.

Last weekend I participated in HBS Las Vegas Trek that was organized by HBS Travel and Hospitality Club. It was awesome!
And since a photo > 1000 words, here's a photopost about the trek:
Taking Good Trips
September 26th, 2007
I was in New York this weekend with an American HBS friend, celebrating Yom Kippur (or at least the end of it). I also got to meet my ex-boss (and HBS recommender) who recently relocated to New Jersey with his family. So that was a fun weekend – it's nice to get out of town once in a while.
And speaking of getting out of town – this weekend is a long weekend here and I'm going on The Las Vegas Trek with HBS Hospitality Club – fun!

Libyan leader blasts Israel's WMD, labels as ''good'' cooperation with US
Libyan President Colonel Muammar Kaddafi has indicated the secret services of Tripoli and Washington were already working jointly against Islamists as he lashed out at Israel's weapons of mass destruction program.
"Cooperation between Libya and the United States is good," Kaddafi told the Italian La Repubblica Monday.
"There are groups that are working against all of us ... it's possible that there has been cooperation between secret services, especially regarding Libyan citizens who fought in Afghanistan," the Libyan ruler said.
Moreover, the Libyan leader strongly slammed Israel, blaming it of possessing weapons of mass destruction and flooding several Arab countries with drugs.
"I would say that there is a terrorism of individuals and a state terrorism; both need to be stopped. If someone destroys an inhabited building with an air-launched missile you cannot say that it is not terrorism," he stressed.
"The Israelis are throwing hashish along the Egyptian coast, in Syria and in North Africa. Maybe even the hashish that arrives in Libya comes from Israel. In fact, we're certain," Kaddafi said.
"I hope that on this point, the international community isn't deaf and blind as it has been on the point of Israeli weapons of mass destruction. It [Israel] has hundreds of atomic [war] heads and a large chemical and biological arsenal." (Albawaba.com)

Searchable abstracts of presentations at key conferences in endocrinology
University of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil.
Studies have demonstrated that ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) subunits SUR2A (sulfonylurea receptor) and KIR6.2 are involved in glucose uptake into skeletal muscle. It is known that the glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) expression is highest in oxidative type I fibers, pointing out the important role of oxidative muscles as glucose uptakes. Considering these aspects the aim of this study was to investigate whether KATP channel can influence glucose uptake in oxidative muscle soleus by regulating GLUT4 expression. Insulin resistance was induced in male Wistar rats by inducing obesity with monosodium glutamate (MSG) (4 mg/g per day). At the age 3 months, half control and MSG-treated animals started receiving 0.1 mg/kg per day of glimepiride in the drinking water, and distributed in 4 groups: control rats (C), control rats treated with glimepiride (OG), MSG-obese rats (O) and MSG-obese rats treated with glimepiride (OG). Animals were submitted to insulin tolerance test (ITT) and samples of soleus muscle were excised for quantification of SUR2A, KIR6.2 and GLUT4 mRNA expression and GLUT4 protein. In ITT, O rats showed 33% decrease in glucose decay constant (kITT) in response to insulin (P<0.05 versus C and OG) and the glimepiride treatment made the kITT value return to the control level. OG rats presented a ~48% increase in SUR2A mRNA content in comparison to O and C rats (P<0.01). O rats showed 16% increase in GLUT4 mRNA content (P<0.01 versus C), without any increase in GLUT4 protein. After glimepiride treatment, OG rats increased GLUT4 mRNA (19%, P<0.01 versus C) and protein (159%, P<0.01 versus C; and 78%, P<0.05 versus O). Obesity or glimepiride treatment did not alter KIR6.2 mRNA content. We conclude that the glimepiride increased the GLUT4 expression in soleus of the insulin resistant animals which could be associated to SUR2A genes expression, playing an important role in the maintenance of the glycemic homeostasis.

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Discussion
Trainer Tools and Resources
shame that is clearly a multi platform game (letterboxing and those quicktime events where you have to press specific buttons and the short time the game actually lasts) but i did like what i actually got.
the game actually worked right out of the box and that is very rare to see these days because normally games need 2 to 3 patches until they can be considered playable.
but i must say that i expect to see an expansion that continues the pointman's story so because of that i am more forgiving of the shortness of fear2 plus the tons of mods that will probably be made for this game.
As for the game being short... yea, it was. But who cares? It's one hell of a game, no matter how long it is. I don't expect a shooter to give me 13+ hours of gameplay like a RPG would, it'd get boring after a while. And if you think about it, making FEAR 2's gameplay last as long as it does (and given it's ending) is a cleaver kind of marketing lure. Leaves us, the players, wondering whats gonna happen in the next game, and we go online (like this), post our guesses and things we might have heard somewhere and we generate all the hype the company needs to help market FEAR 3 if they decide to make one.

Islanders score two third-period goals to claim 5-3 victory over Maple Leafs
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Nikolai Kulemin (41) battles for the puck against New York Islanders defenceman Andrew MacDonald (47) during second period NHL hockey action in Toronto on Tuesday, January 7, 2014. (Nathan Denette / THE CANADIAN PRESS)
Dan Ralph, The Canadian Press
Published Tuesday, January 7, 2014 10:05PM EST
TORONTO -- Frans Nielsen, Calvin De Haan and Cal Clutterbuck all scored third-period goals to lead the New York Islanders past the Toronto Maple leafs 5-3 on Tuesday night.
New York (16-22-7) kicked off a six-game road trip with their second win in as many nights after downing the Dallas Stars 7-3 on Monday.
It was another frustrating decision for Toronto (21-18-5), which outshot the Islanders 26-25 coming off a lopsided 7-1 home loss to the New York Rangers on Saturday night. That defeat snapped a three-game win streak.
The Leafs made it interesting when Nazem Kadri's shot deflected in off Joffrey Lupul at the 16:55 mark of the third period to cut New York's lead to 4-3. It was Lupul's 13th goal of the season, delighting the Air Canada Centre gathering of 19,164. But Clutterbuck cemented the win with an empty-net goal at 19:51.
Nielsen's power-play goal, his 16th of the season, broke a 2-2 tie at 3:41 with Lupul serving a goalie interference penalty. De Haan registered his first of the year at 6:01, his slapshot outside the Leafs' blue-line deflecting off captain Dion Phaneuf's sick and past goalie Jonathan Bernier, who wasn't sharp in his sixth straight start.
Bernier got the start despite allowing five goals on 32 shots against the Rangers.
Kyle Okposo and Michael Grabner also scored for the Islanders. Captain John Tavares, named to Canada's Olympic team earlier Tuesday, added three assists after registering five points (three goals, two assists) against Dallas.
Tyler Bozak and Mason Raymond had the other goals for Toronto, which fell to 14-10-1 at home.
Bozak opened the scoring, deflecting Paul Ranger's point shot past New York goalie Kevin Poulin at 5:05 of the first, his sixth of the season. Bozak has two goals and four assists in four games since returning from an oblique injury.
Poulin started ahead of regular Evgeni Nabokov, who was injured in Monday night's 7-3 win over Dallas. Nabokov's absence is a definite concern as the Islanders were 1-9-2 when he was out with a groin injury earlier this season.
Okposo pulled New York even at 19:16 with his 17th goal of the season, his wrist shot from well out eluding Bernier.
New York went ahead on a peculiar play early in the second. Bernier left his crease to stop a loose puck behind the Toronto goal but couldn't prevent it from going outside the no-play zone. That allowed Grabner to take the loose puck and score his sixth goal unassisted on the wraparound at 3:06.
Toronto had four power-play chances in the period but only scored at 8:25 to make it 2-2. Poulin stopped Jake Gardiner's point shot but Raymond converted the rebound for his 12th goal of the season but just his second in 16 contests.

"Buckskin is more romantic and entertaining in romances
and pictures than on one's own shanks," said Francis R. Lub-
bock, Comptroller of the Republic of Texas, after his first and
last experience in such an outfit in 1838.1 Young Lubbock, a
South Carolinian, had come to Texas a short time before from
New Orleans. He was a member of the Milam Guards and set
out from Houston with them on an Indian expedition in what
he thought was the correct thing for such an occasion, a buck-
skin suit.
But the rain descended, and the winds blew. He had brought
along no change of clothes, for he was inexperienced and ex-
pected to be gone only a few days. As it continued to rain and
he was afraid of pneumonia, he stood near the camp fire to
dry himself. His more experienced, fun-loving campanions kept
discreetly silent. When he was thoroughly warm and dry
imagine his consternation to discover that his buckskin breeches
had shrunk to above his knees, were stuck tighter than his skin
and had to be cut off of him. Out of necessity he contrived
some sort of covering for himself from his green felt saddle
blanket. Is it any wonder that on his return home several
weeks later with the Milam heroes his beautiful young wife,
a former New Orleans creole belle, did not recognize her
husband ?2
In collecting costumes for the historical exhibits of the Texas
Centennial Exposition the most difficult things to locate were
a buckskin suit and a homespun dress. Silks, satins, fine laces,
brocades and broadcloth were found with comparatively little
trouble. If the pioneer Texan wore buckskin, as writers and
arists so glibly had stated, I was about to decide that he
had worn it entirely out. At last I got on the trail of an excel-
lent example which had belonged to the Indian Scout, Robert
Hall. The outfit included trousers, coat, and vest all of fringed
and beaded buckskin. Once there had been a coonskin cap, but

From my RV kitchen
No question, this is one of the most unique ways I've seen to cook a turkey. Easy, no fuss, no muss, and the results are delicious.
Heavy duty aluminum foil
12x12 wood board - covered with foil
18" dowel - mounted vertically in the center of the board - covered with foil
up to a 13 pound turkey - tied if you desire
20 gallon galvenized steel trash can, treated (see below for treatment instructions)
2 10-pound bags of "matchlight" charcoal briquettes
Sturdy, heat-proof gloves
Lay a large piece of aluminum foil on a non-flamible spot on the ground.
Place the wood board/dowel in the center of the foil.
Place a cleaned turkey, legs down, over the dowel.
Place the trash can upside down over the turkey.
Pour 1 bag of charcoal on top of trash can. Pour the other bag of charcoal around the base of the trash can. Make sure all of the charcoal is on the large piece of foil covering the ground. Using a stcik lighter, light the charcoal in several places (do not use lighter fluid!).
Allowing the charcoal to flame, cook the turkey for 90 minutes.
Rake the coals off the top and from around the base. Carefully remove the trash can (use gloves - it's hot) and viola' - there's your browned, crispy turkey!
Additional Tips
The first time you use the trash can for Gourmet Trash Can Turkey you must "season" it using a water/white vinegar mix. This removes any metallic taste.
In the trash can add 1 gallon of white vinegar. Fill the can half way up with cool, clean water. Wash the sides and allow to sit for 6 hours. Swish the water/vinegar on to the sides every 30 minutes or so.
Rinse well and prepare to wow your friends and family!

One of the city's most venerable cultural institutions, the San Antonio Symphony, will celebrate its 75th anniversary with a classical concert and party on Saturday, June 14. The concert will feature international violin sensation Joshua Bell at the Majestic Theatre, beginning at 8 p.m. Buy tickets online here.
Weber Overture to Oberon
Wagner Prelude and Liebestod from Tristan and Isolde
Wagner Prelude from Die Meistersinger

From the stunningly powerful violin concerto of Sibelius to the sultry sounds of Bolero, showcasing the entire orchestra, Bell joins San Antonio Symphony Music Director Sebastian Lang-Lessing and the San Antonio Symphony in a program that will include musical selections performed during the June 1939 inaugural concert to include works from Wagner and Strauss.

By 1945, its popular community support enabled Reiter to establish the San Antonio Symphony Grand Opera Festival, bringing world-class stars and productions to the Municipal Auditorium. This early Symphony venue will be reborn in September as the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts; the San Antonio Symphony will serve as its resident symphony orchestra.

Architect of tuition hikes, Raymond Bachand aims for Liberal leadership
CTV Montreal
Published Friday, September 28, 2012 11:13AM EDT
Last Updated Friday, September 28, 2012 9:02PM EDT
MONTREAL--Former Finance Minister Raymond Bachand is the first official candidate in the race to replace Jean Charest at the head of the Quebec Liberal Party.
Flanked by a number of sitting MNAs as he announced his candidacy on Friday morning, the architect of the Liberal's controversial tuition hike and health tax said he was the best person to bring unity to the party.
"When we are strong we can do great things, and we have done great things as Quebecers," said Bachand. "I'm the man who will help bring Quebec, in a unifying way, on the path to economic prosperity.
"My obsession is jobs."
The former HEC professor who took over as finance minister in 2009, could bring ideological spice to the Liberals, calling for the party to bring debate and big ideas back to Quebec.
Jean Charest was often criticized as non-ideological to a fault and had had few political passions other than stopping the sovereignty movement.
On Friday, Bachand tried to unify the party behind him, calling on Anglophone support.
"Some of you have come to question recently whether we take you for granted. Well I don't take you for granted. I think, as for every citizen of Quebec, we have to gain your trust every time," said Bachand.
"You are part of our history; you are part of our future. We are all Quebecers."
Former Culture Minister Christine St-Pierre, along with Guy Ouellette and Danielle St-Amand, said that Bachand is the best man to restore the Liberal Party to power.
Lise Theriault, who was labour minister in the Liberal cabinet, will chair Bachand's campaign.
"We are here today because we think that Raymond is the best leader for the Liberal Party," said Theriault. "We know the man, not the politician, the man."
Bachand is a lawyer with an MBA and a lengthy business history, including directing the Metro-Richelieu grocery chain and overseeing the FTQ's investment arm.
With the widow of former Liberal Premier Robert Bourassa in the audience, Bachand welcomed the upcoming leadership race. Former Transport Minister Pierre Moreau and former Health Minister Philippe Couillard are expected to announce they will be trying for the Liberal' top job.
In recent polls, Couillard has been shown leading with 27 per cent of the public's support, Bachand trails at 10 per cent.
"Obviously he doesn't have the energy that draws the crowds to their feet, but Robert Bourassa didn't command that energy either," said political analyst Jean Lapierre.
Bachand could face some opposition in the party. In his 30s he was a prominent figure for the Yes side during the 1980 referendum. While Bachand has often repeated his full-fledged support for keeping Quebec within Canada, grassroots federalists could turn on the Outremont MNA.
With Jean-Marc Fournier acting as Liberal chief following Jean Charest's post-election defeat and resignation, a new leader will be chosen in February, a month before the PQ's first March budget.
If higher taxes are in the budget, the PQ can't count on Bachand's vote.

Looking for a tax free, no risk investment with a guaranteed 6-18% return? This might sound too good to be true but it's not. Once you have an emergency cash reserve it's time to start thinking seriously about your investing strategy. Part of that strategy is finding the investment that will yield the highest return with the lowest risk. Tax considerations must also play a role when you start looking for places to put your money. If you could find a place to make a guaranteed, zero risk, tax free investment would you jump at the chance to put your money there?
If you have consumer debt on credit cards you qualify for this "opportunity". Your credit debt and interest payments work against any positive interest you might be accruing. Lets say you're earning 12% a year in the stock market. After taxes you're only getting 9% unless you're protected by a ROTH IRA. A 9% return is the average stock market return over thirty years (minus taxes). If you have an equal amount of money in consumer credit card debt and your paying 18% a year in payments you are still down. You are actually losing -9% a year with your current investment strategy.
Risk is a considerable factor as well. If the market is down you could be earning nothing or have negative returns in the short term. This would decrease your -9% to -18% in a hurry. If you tack on inflation you're investment strategy is negative over -20 percent!
Paying off credit cards isn't very exciting. It doesn't feel the same as making new money. When you add up all the positive returns you are making and subtract your negative interest it only makes sense to stop the bleeding. Once you've got your debt under control start making positive investments.
You might consider different debt consolidation options, selling stuff, or drive a different car. All of which will help you in your investment goals.

Roof Rail / Rack / Cross Bar and AccessoriesSunday, July 3rd, 2016
2016-07-03 Updated
2010-06-25 Initial Post
This is an interesting area that I looked into last year when I got a bike rack for my 2009 Subaru Tribeca. The term "roof rack" basically refers to the basic rail and cross bar system on a vehicle's roof. In most cases, you need the rails and cross bars in place before you can install accessories such as a bike or ski carrier (these are generally referred to as "bike rack" and "ski rack," respectively).

Hydrogen Man Records is happy to announce the upcoming 12" EP from Sweden's OAK. Five songs of unapologetic intensity and fury, FFO Botch, Converge, and Jungbluth. Titled "Your Mess As Much As Mine," this will be available January 28th. Pre-order now and stream their song "Broken Bodied" here.
Pre-order "Your Mess As Much As Mine"
"Your Mess as Much as Mine" by Swedish hardcore band Oak bridges the gap between hardcore and screamo to create a truly furious feeling record with a modern sound. The five tracks span 17 minutes, channeling emotions ranging from anger and grief to melancholy. Since their self-titled debut album they've developed musically towards a heavier sound, drawing on influences such as Converge and Botch, while at the same time making room for more nuance and dynamics, pulling from metal and nineties hardcore. The result is a powerful and cohesive mix of genres, developed into a chaotic storm of heavy, post-hardcore.
Track listing:
01. Broken Bodied
02. Garden
03. For Better or Worse
04. Elsewhere
05. Family and Friends
Stream "Broken Bodied" now at listen.hydrogenmanrecords.com.
Pre-order "Your Mess As Much As Mine"
"The brutal/intense side of screamo, veering into grind, along the lines of Orchid, Pg. 99, early Converge and Discordance Axis." -Decibel
Congenital Death's debut LP features 15 razor sharp hardcore songs, all delivered with unbelievable fury. Split release with Ranch Jams.
A reflection on the often desperate and heart-breaking state of the human condition - the weight of the record's subject matter is surpassed only by its crushing production, resulting in a jarring and colossal listen.

The one and only thing which determines the success or failure of a candidate in any exam is the score obtained. This holds good for CAT, the first step towards securing a seat in the prestigious IIMs, as well. 2 factors determine the score obtained – Number of attempts & Accuracy. These two are not independent of each other – focusing solely on one will result in a drop of the other. Therefore, the target of the students should be to improve on both at the same time. And this needs a well thought out plan for preparation and practice – before the exam and during the exam.
How to increase the number of attempts?
Question selection: The students need to ensure that they attempt and answer all the easy questions in each section within the time allotted for the section. Once they are done with the easy questions, they can proceed to answering the more difficult ones, if time permits. To be able to do this, one has to attempt questions selectively, judging their difficulty level while reading them. The cardinal rule is to not miss on any easy question in the CAT paper, which means that no question in the paper should be left unread.
The question which students have is – to attempt the questions based on the difficulty level, should we scan the paper first, or answer them on the go based on the difficulty level.
The answer would depend on the test area that one is working out. For questions on Verbal Ability, it doesn't make sense to come back to the questions after scanning them as most of them can either be answered or left out in the first reading. But for a Quantitative Ability questions, the constraints are different. The questions can be, in the first reading, left to be solved later when one identifies all the easy questions in the paper. But, the disadvantage in doing this will be that there would be duplication of efforts in terms of reading the same question(s) multiple times. This is because by the time the scan is over and one comes back to the first question, the information on the question may not stay in ones mind and the question has to be read again. To avoid this, the students can divide the allotted time for the section into different chunks (for example – divide 40 min into 4 chunks of 10 min each) and in each time chunk, focus on a set of questions to be scanned for difficulty level and attempted.
This way, one can ensure that no question goes unread and also that all the easy to medium questions are attempted. For Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation, the questions are already in sets, there by making our task easy. The answer would also depend on how good one is in judging difficulty level. If one is not so good in judging the level, then it is very likely that he/she will get stuck in questions, there by wasting a lot of time. In this case, answering on the go will not be a good idea, as time will run out well before one reaches the end of the paper, there by leaving some questions unread. This violates the cardinal rule discussed above, of not leaving questions unread.
The students should therefore assess how good they are on judging the difficulty level. They should look at their previous Mock CAT results to understand this. More number of easy questions left out or difficult questions attempted is an indication that there is scope for improvement here.
How to improve accuracy in CAT exam?
Accuracy, the bug bear of many, is easy to talk about but hard to improve on. Practice, as any body will say, is the key to improve on accuracy, preceded with a thorough understanding of basics. With 2 months to go for the exam, it is very important for the students to invest their time on only what matters the most and not carpet bomb their preparation on all areas. To know where to invest their time, Mock Cat analysis will play a huge role. Check the performance by topic in the Mock Cats taken so far, to understand which areas need improvement. Don't I know where I need improvement? – you may ask. You may, but the performance analysis will help support your awareness or, in most cases, unearth additional areas which need focus.
Finally, all the preparation you put in should be checked in the subsequent Mock CATs you take. Similarly, your question selection plan should also be reviewed regularly, based on the Mock CATs you take.

Making Moon Sand was on my Summer Bucket list. I used the recipe from here. Alas, none of us was too thrilled with the result. I expected the mixture to be more like a wet beach sand. Instead we ended up with the sand "oobleck" that was first too oozy and then too hard. Also, somehow I got cornstarch all over myself mixing and playing with it. Good thing that I didn't add food coloring – at least the mess was not too permanent. I was quite relieved when Anna asked for a playdoh instead and spent another 2 hours contentedly making cupcakes. Oh well, I can permanently take the moon sand off the list of things to make unless someone offers a better recipe.
On the positive note, we made another "check" in our Summer Bucket List. We found a great brand-new kite at the garage sale for $3, and then papa taught us how to fly it. The wind was not cooperating too well, but we did manage to get it up high once. Unlike moon sand, this is something I want to do again and again, and Anna agrees with me.

As a gluten-free diner, I always plan ahead when going out for dinner. I choose a restaurant that I know will offer several gluten-free options, or I call the restaurant in advance to make sure they are cognizant about gluten issues. It is becoming more and more likely that a restaurant will actually have a gluten-free menu, which means more choices and less stress about eating out.
I normally wouldn't choose to eat at O'Charley's, but sometimes you don't really have a choice. It's a Southern restaurant chain offering American food, and when you dine with a group, it's good to chose a place that offers variety. I hadn't been to O'Charley's since my diagnosis, and I wondered how growing gluten awareness had impacted this mid-level restaurant chain.
It really hasn't.
O'Charley's does have an Allergen Information binder that the server will bring out if you ask for it, but everything must be cross-referenced. The diner needs to find something on the menu that looks promising, and then look in the binder to see if anything in that menu option contains gluten.
Each page of the binder lists food items in alphabetical order and common allergens marked with an X on an allergen grid.
User friendly? Not at all, but the information is there. I'd recommend finding this document online and doing your cross-referencing with the online menu at home. Know what you are going to order before arriving at the restaurant so that you can spend your time enjoying conversation with friends instead of taking 20 minutes to research.
I was hoping that O'Charley's had become a little more progressive than this.
How hard would it be for O'Charley's to create a gluten-free menu?
Not hard at all. I made my own in 10 minutes. Here's Gluten-Free Cat's Unofficial O'Charley's Gluten-Free Menu created by cutting and pasting from O'Charley's Allergen Information Document.

I was able to find a meal to eat safely. The California Chicken Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette was good. But the whole dining experience could have been much easier with a gluten-free menu.
Bottom line? Celiacs can eat at O'Charley's, but O'Charley's needs to step up and create a gluten-free menu.

Is Newton, Massachusetts Mayor Setti Warren ready to jump in to the MA Sen 2012 race for the Democratic nomination against MA Senator Scott Brown, who pulled a fast one on Dems in the quickie run-off election for Ted Kennedy's seat a year and a half ago?
Word has it, that Warren has "booked the same American Legion Post where he announced his mayoral run for an unspecified event" this Tuesday.
And… Word has it that the MA GOP is already "revving up the anti-Warren spin machine," in anticipation of his announcement.
Warren could look like a threat to the MA GOP because of his ties to MA's senior Senator John Kerry, who is Warren's former boss. In my opinion the Kerry connection will play well for Warren if indeed he does jump in. My guess is Kerry himself will hold back on support for a while, but Warren's former co-workers will no doubt appear in Warren's staff as the primary heats up.
Scott Brown's people may think he has a firm hold on his Senate seat, but I think MA Dems will rally hard to take back Ted Kennedy's seat for the party and I've got a good feeling about Setti Warren for Senate.
One final tidbit on Warren's possible run… SettiWarren.com is currently "down for maintenance," but this is from his bio:
As Special Assistant in the White House Office of Cabinet Affairs for President Clinton, Setti worked with the offices of the Attorney General, the Department of Treasury, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and the Small Business Administration.
As New England Director of FEMA, Setti managed a staff and a significant budget. In this capacity he worked closely with local mayors, members of Congress and governors to administer vital and effective FEMA programs and deliver resources to cities and towns throughout New England.
As Deputy State Director for Senator Kerry, Setti was his point person on small business and economic development, bringing federal assistance to cities and towns across the Commonwealth.
Prior to running for Mayor, Setti completed a year-long tour of duty in Iraq as a Naval Intelligence Specialist.

Major blaze at city mall; no casualties
Short circuit believed to be cause of fire at Koregaon Park Plaza
A major fire broke out at the Koregaon Park Plaza, a shopping mall in the city, last evening. No casualties were reported. The incident took place just hours after a devastating fire at Mantralaya in Mumbai.
People were evacuated from the mall as soon as the fire was noticed. The fire was still on at the time of going to press. Several retail outlets are housed in the mall and the fire destroyed merchandise like garments, shoes, bags and other items on display in different stores. Fire brigade officials said they suspected a short circuit.
Nine water tankers were pressed into service to douse the fire. Ten people were rescued from the mall. "We received a call at 5.38 pm and rushed water tenders to the spot," Chief Fire Officer Prashant Ranpise said. "Going by preliminary observations, we think the fire was due to a short circuit. It is difficult to say anything more at this point as we are still trying to douse the fire."
Sidharth Sehgal, security in-charge of Koregaon Park Plaza, said smoke was first noticed from a store on the first floor. "We discovered the fire in the afternoon after smoke started coming out from one of the retail shops on the first floor," Sehgal said. He said evacuation of people from the mall began within seconds and attempts were made to bring the fire under control.
The fire brigade was called as the intensity of the fire and smoke increased. "It would be very difficult to say how much property was gutted in the fire as there is thick smoke inside the plaza and the fire brigade officials and our fire-fighting teams are still trying to douse the fire," Sehgal said.
Lensmen covering fire roughed up by mall security guards
Photographers and television cameramen trying to capture images of the fire incident were roughed up by the security guards posted at the mall entrance yesterday. The guards manhandled the lensmen and told them to stop taking pictures.

Robert "Bob" French Sr., the drummer and longtime leader of the Original Tuxedo Jazz Band and a radio DJ, died on Monday after a long battle with dementia and diabetes-related complications, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. He was 74.
Growing up surrounded by music, French took over the reigns of the Original Tuxedo Jazz Band from his father, Albert "Papa" French, a banjo player. While the younger French initially rejected his father's music in favor of rhythm and blues, he turned eventually to an intense study of New Orleans jazz.
Under French's leadership, the Original Tuxedo Jazz Band's repertoire grew. He brought the group back to Bourbon Street in 2009 when he scored a Monday night residency at Irvin Mayfield's Jazz Playhouse in the Royal Sonesta Hotel.
"They can do anything they want except mess with the musicians' instruments," French said of his audiences, whom he forbade from videotaping his shows but encouraged them to talk and dance. "If they're having a good time, Bob's having a good time. If you've got a dancing audience, they're easy to play to – they're entertaining themselves."
French was also known as an outspoken, often controversial radio DJ for WWOZ FM, where he spun traditional and local jazz records. On air, French could be as vicious as he was funny: after Hurricane Katrina, he went after elected officials whom he believed had failed the city and once bashed Reverend Jesse Jackson and Mayor Ray Nagin. On a separate occasion, he tried to get a free lunch out of former WWOZ DJ Mike "Mr. Jazz" Gourrier.
One of French's most celebrated works is his 2007 effort Marsalis Music Honors Bob French, which found the drummer playing standards alongside Branford Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr. In 2011, French stepped down from his drum kit, a position that was filled by his nephew Gerald French, who also leads the band.
"I do a lot I'm not supposed to do, but nobody stops me," French said once of his time at WWOZ. "I think it's good that somebody can do something that's not automatic. I'm not a robot; I'm a human being. And I've always been opinionated. Ask both of my ex-wives."

…well, 2/3rds of the family, anyway. Mom's still on the fence.
New Yorkers United for Marriage just announced that former first daughter, Chelsea Clinton, will join 50 volunteers at 1199 SEIU Headquarters in NYC tonight to kick off the coalition's first week of phone-banking in favor of same-sex marriage.
Tonight kicks off what will be biweekly sessions in an effort to pass marriage legislation by the end of the 2011 legislative session. Campaign volunteers will reach out to thousands of supporters in swing districts, asking them to urge their legislators to vote "yes" when (and if) the marriage bill comes to the floor.
This comes on the heels of a statement this morning from former President Bill Clinton in support of marriage equality in New York.
On Tuesday, Chelsea Clinton headlined a fundraiser for FriendFactor, a new social media organizing tool that is focused on getting same-sex marriage legalized in New York.
"As a New Yorker who not that long ago got married in New York to her best friend…I certainly believe that all of my friends should have the right, as Marc and I did, to marry their best friend," Clinton said.
"I certainly expect my straight friends to help us achieve that for all New Yorkers, for all Americans, and for the children that, at least, Marc and I hope to have someday."


text: Taylor here on this beautiful Wednesday afternoon. Kathryn and Josh randomly chose a gorgeous night for their session. I say random, because these two are individually traveling all over this semester interviewing for their residency programs. So we had a select few days scattered throughout November that worked for them. Josh is looking for a Orthodontics program and Kathryn will be headed into a Gynecology program. Needless to say, these two are super smart and obviously very driven. I'm excited to see where they end up. They are super hopeful that they will be getting into programs in the same city or at least very close to each other, but they seem pretty laid back about it all. Knowing that it will all work out. It was fun exploring some new locations with these two. Thanks for being flexible!

They are pretty big animals and, as I know, they supposed to be night animals too. It was surprising and beautiful - to see huge flying flock of bats (there were hundreds of them!) in the day light. oh, yes... camera has delay, so no photo of them flying unfortunatelly.

Thanks for these ideas FG and ND.
Not sure about Magnolias' requirements, but there are many different varieties; Spring flowering, Autumn flowering etc. They are quite common in small London front gardens, so I assume they don't cause problems. There is one in Holland Park Avenue that I use to love seeing.
TBird, I had to get the size smaller than I normally take as they are made pretty large.
I agree with Dove, turn the compost and every time you pass by hit the bin with a cane. Are they plastic bins (Daleks) or timber bays with carpet on top?
If you can get hold of one of those irritating birthday cards that whines 'Happy Birthday' for ages, put that in the bin, I believe they last for about 3 weeks before the battery runs out.
A shovel of horse manure will help replace the worms and also may be disliked by the moles. My neighbour swears by a mechanical mole catcher, but that does involve killing them.
Thanks FG
I have safety glass in mine. But I agree with the above, allotment= polycarbonate.
I had to google 'backdoor shoes' and discovered I have some; £4.00 from Wilkinsons. Very useful and so comfy I even wear them in the house sometimes. My neighbour got some that are lined with fluffy stuff and I'm a bit jealous
A lot of front gardens have a Magnolia, which is pretty spectacular.
Lesley, I love the colour of that fuschia (?); what type is it?
