Akron shoots past Cleveland State 73-61
CLEVELAND (AP) — Reggie McAdams and Nyles Evans combined for some hot 3-point shooting as Akron breezed past Cleveland State 73-61 on Saturday afternoon.
Akron (2-2) showed no sign of being rusty, playing only their fourth regular season game of the season, following a 21-day layoff. The Zips pegged the game by making 50 percent from beyond the three, hitting 11-of-22 attempts. The Vikings on the other hand, made only 4-of-13 baskets from beyond the arc.

Cleveland State (4-5) held a brief lead of 9-8 seven minutes in, but by halftime Akron had pulled away to a 32-23 lead and never allowed the Vikings to get close. The Zips pushed the lead to as many as 19 points midway through the second half on the way to the victory.
Charlie Lee scored 14 for the Vikings, but Bryn Forbes, who averages 19.8 points was held to just nine.

MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury Union High School girls' lacrosse team had little trouble with a longtime rival on Friday, when the Tigers thumped Mount Anthony, 18-5.
Nine Tigers scored, led by sophomore middie Emily Robinson's five goals, as MUHS improved to 2-1.
The Tigers' only loss has come to a 4-1 Rutland team in their opener, and in that 10-8 road setback MUHS played without senior standout midfielders Chrissy Ritter and Brandi Whittemore.
MIDDLEBURY — When you get into hot water, you can wind up in the Addison County Sheriff's Department (ACSD) lockup. Those who find themselves in that predicament can take a little solace in knowing that the hot water they use at the jail will have been made in an environmentally safe manner.
VERGENNES — Vergennes Union Elementary School fourth-grader Kathryn Wyckoff has always loved to read, write and paint, and for the past year or so has worn a feather in her hair.
Thanks to those language and artistic skills, Kathryn now has a feather in her cap, too.
Kathryn, a 10-year-old Panton resident, just won a statewide student poster contest sponsored by the Federal Women's Program Council of Vermont.
MIDDLEBURY — On Wednesday, April 11, around 30 people voted unanimously in favor of a 2012-2013 spending plan of $6,144,811 for Mary Hogan Elementary School.
Bonnie Bourne, co-principal of the Middlebury school, said folks present at the ID-4 school district annual meeting asked a few clarifying questions about the budget before endorsing it by voice vote.

MIDDLEBURY — Joe McVeigh's special talent is in teaching English, but he hasn't been spending a lot of time lately in countries where that language is most widely spoken.
That's because McVeigh's English teaching skills, and the books he has co-authored on the subject, have taken him to more than 45 countries where people are eager to absorb a language that they see as a passport to success in business, education and cultural pursuits.
STUDIO CITY, Calif. — A Vergennes native competed on the popular daytime game show "The Price is Right" last week, and her appearance will be broadcast this coming Friday.
According to a Price is Right spokesperson, Theresa McDonough's appearance will be broadcast at 11 a.m. this Friday on Channel 3.
What prizes McDonough, a former Vergennes Union High School student, may have won or whether she earned a shot at the program's trademark "Showcase" are, of course, closely held secrets prior to the broadcast.

OpenOffice Bug-- Stuck in Document Recovery Loop
Persistent Dratted BugThere is a recurring bug in OpenOffice that has been around for several years, and afflicts various distros though it seems most prevalent in Ubuntu. Maybe because more people use Ubuntu, maybe Ubuntu does something to it, I don't know. I do know there many unresolved bug reports and frustrated users.
For me, every time I saved a document in Writer it would trigger the Document Recovery dialogue. Sometimes it would crash. Sometimes it would let me click the 'recover the darned documents' button. Then next time I hit the Save button boom, same story. It got so bad it was unusable. A Web search on "openoffice document recovery" will find many reports of this and similar problems.
Then I purged OpenOffice and all config files from my system, and default-jre, which is the current Java runtime package for Ubuntu. Then I reinstalled them from fresh packages after running apt-get clean to force fresh package downloads. No joy, same problem.
Now keep in mind this represents several hours of troubleshooting and researching, and a fair bit of bad language. When one finds that this problem has existed for years and no one but us lowly users are bothered by it, it tends to color one's mood negatively.
Finally I followed this howto on Ubuntugeek, How To install OpenOffice 3.2 in Ubuntu. This walks you through the steps to install OpenOffice from Oracle, rather than using your distro version. First remove your existing distro OpenOffice packages. Then you will have to find the appropriate download for your system, and verify the correct filenames to use in the commands.
(uname -m shows if you have a 32- or 64-bit Linux installed,
i386, or i686. An alert reader kindly pointed out that i386 or i686 indicates a 32-bit Linux, while 64-bit is indicated by x86_64)
It worked, and now I have a usable OpenOffice.
What about LibreOffice, you may ask? I tried it and ran into a showstopper installation bug. But I shall certainly follow its development and test it as soon as I can install it.

Types of Apologetics Systems is the title of the new book written
by Dr. Ramm, professor of philosophy at Bethel.
This book, "an introductory study of the Christian Philosophy of
Religion," was completed by the Christmas of 1951 and published this
month, February, 1953. It is a study of nine great philosophers of
religion, each representing a different approach to the subject of apolo-getics.
The book is divided into three sections of three men each.
Included are: Soren Kierkegaard, Thomas Aquinas, Edward John Car-nell,
and others.
Dr. Ramm dedicated the book to Rev. Eric N. Lindholm, pastor of
the Bethlehem Baptist church in Minneapolis, who read the entire
manuscript before it was published. Mr. Robert Otto, former assistant
professor of philosophy at Bethel, also helped in the reading of the
Problems in Christian Apologetics, another book by Dr. Ramm,
was published in 1947. He is now working on a book dealing with science
and the Bible.

Two Bethel Debate Teams Rank High
In Northwest Area College Meet
Two of our debate teams ranked Bethel over all twenty of the other
schools participating in the men's division of a tournament held at Con-cordia
College in Moorhead on February 6 and 7, The meet included
thirty-three teams from colleges
and universities in five states.
One Bethel team, Robert Hilton
and Wendell Anderson, was among
three to have six wins and no loss-es.
Since the other two (one from
North Dakota State Teacher's Col-lege
and the other from South
Dakota State Teacher's College)
had more points, Hilton and Anderson
received third place.
Roger Bergeson, Ronald Palosaari
and Don Richardson alternated
to comprise the other Bethel male
team. They won five out of six
rounds giving Bethel eleven wins
and one loss, a record unmatched
by any other school at the tournament.
At a women's tournament held
at the same time at Moorhead
State Teacher's College, Bethel's
freshmen girls won three out of
twelve debates in major competition.
The women debaters taking
part were: Gloria Nelson, Barbara
Ware, Jean Seldon, and Helen J.

Student Book Exchange
Is New Campus Service
Offered By Bookstore
Mrs. Walfred Peterson, manager
of the Bethel bookstore, announced
today the innovation of a used-book
exchange. The bookstore will have
a list of books which can be placed
on the Student Book Exchange
Before the books can be placed
on the shelves, a blank must be
filled out and stapled to the fly-leaf
of the book. Mrs. Peterson said
that the usual reduction for a used
book is 25% of the original cost,
but the student sets the price he
wants for the book.
The handling charge for the ex-change
books is to be 10% of the
selling price of the book. After a
prescribed length of time, which
the bookstore will specify, all
books that haven't been sold must
be removed from the shelves and
the money for the books that have
been sold will be paid.
Books that will no longer be
used at Bethel can be sold to
wholesalers; this list will also be
in the bookstore.
The Student Book Exchange is
ready for operation immediately.
Coming from Chicago as guest
speakers are Dr. A. W. Tozer, pas-tor
of the large Missionary Alliance
church of South Chicago; and Dr.
Clarence Nelson, president of
North Park College. Rev. E. A.
Tebay of California, comes to speak
throughout the week on "Steward-ship"
and the implied Christian
Of the Bethel faculty, Dr. Ber-nard
Ramm and Dr. W. Robert
Smith, are scheduled for several
day sessions and one night session
each. Dr. Virginia Lowell Grabill
speaks at one day session at which
she will give "a layman's criticism
of the sermon." Dr. Grabill said
she will expose the dull uninspir-ing
sermon and give the pastors
hints on sharpening up the content
and the delivery of their sermons.
Other speakers to appear during
the week are Dr. Earl V. Pierce,
retired Minneapolis pastor, now a
prominent lecturer on Christian
dogma, and Dr. Curtis Akenson,
pastor of The First Baptist church
of Minneapolis.
A feature of the week's program
is a discussion panel scheduled for
the closing hour on Monday, Tues-day,
and Wednesday, when mem-bers
of the seminary faculty will
present discussion on contempor-ary
theological issues, possibly in-cluding
the history of Bible trans-lations.
Rather than climaxing the week's
activities as it has in the past,
the usual Founder's Week banquet
is. on the opening day, Monday, at
6:00 p.m., at the Bethlehem Bap-tist
church, Minneapolis. Rev. Gor-don
Johnson, pastor of the Central
Ave. Baptist church of Chicago, is
the speaker.
As part of the scheduled activi-ties
is a Bethel basketball game
against the Northwestern Schools
of Minneapolis, at 4:00 p.m. Thurs-day.
The purpose is to acquaint
the pastors with the facilities of
the new field-house auditorium.
Students are urged to attend as
well as visiting guests.
Chapel speakers, tentatively
planned for by Dr. Wingblade, will
be Dr. Ramm, Smith, Tozer, and
Nelson. All music for the week
will be provided for by the Bethel
choral groups.
Rev. E. A. Tebay
Conference Pastors Welcomed;
Annual Banquet Monday Night
Pastors from Conference churches throughout the land will be on
campus next week for the tenth annual Founder's Week observance.
Guest speakers as well as members of the Bethel faculty will bring
messages concerning the general theme—"Faithfulness to the Trust."
For the visiting pastors, each day starts with a 9 a.m. prayer forum
lasting until chapel time. Sessions will continue through the day,
until 5 p.m., separated by the usual class bells.
Only one evening session is planned each night this year. Starting
at 7:30 p.m., they will be held in different Twin City churches each
evening as follows: Monday—Bethlehem Baptist church, Minneapolis;
Tuesday—Payne Ave. Baptist church, St. Paul; Wednesday—Elim Bap-tist
church, Minneapolis; Thursday—Central Baptist church, St. Paul.
The climaxing service Friday night is tentatively planned for the
gymnasium auditorium on campus, however, a change might be an-nounced
during the week.

THE CLARION Friday, Feb. 13, 1953
"Meet you in the student center," is a
reply that lately may be found coming
from the lips of most Bethelites. I have
received many comments and suggestions
concerning a name for our now-called "stu-dent
First let us consider why the present
name is not adequate. We may boldly as-sert
that the student center is not entirely
a student center. Faculty members, ad-ministration,
and "friends of Bethel" spend
proportionally as much time in the center
as students. And to be sure the average
benevolent Bethel student wouldn't be-grudge
his superiors the luxurious and
beautiful facilities of the center.
Our dormitories each have the name of
one of our Founders. The use of these
names—Bodien, Hagstrom, and Edgren—in
connection with the buildings definitely
adds prestige to the college and all its
constituents. Our college, seminary, library
and fieldhouse have less distinguished
names. They are called the college, the
seminary, the library, and the fieldhouse,
A customary practice of many institutions
is to honor a wealthy person who has do-nated
a large sum of money for the par-ticular
building, by naming it with his
family name. There has been, at least to
my knowledge, no such donation for our
student center so it would appear we would
have to look elsewhere.
The advertising staff of the CLARION
incorporated a proverbial saying, formulat-ed
by some girls in Bodien Residence, into
the student center advertisement by say-ing
"Where the Royals Roost." Whether the
name of Royal Roost should be adopted is
a question of less significance than the one
that would decide to have its present name
This observer is grateful to see some
initiative being exhibited by these Bodien
residents. Perhaps the English department
would object to "Royal Roost" since the
term is a mixed metaphore, but I am con-fident
those difficulties could be worked
out. I believe all Bethel would be grateful
if an organization or person took the initia-tive
to enact such a naming. Perhaps a
contest would provide a variety of names
from which one could be chosen.

Bethel Awaits North Central Association Decision
Ed. note: In response to a query concerning the examining committee from
the North Central Association the Editor received the following letter from Dean
C. E. Carlson.
Dear Roy:
Thank you for offering some space in your next issue in which to express
my viewpoints regarding the prospects of membership in the North Central As-sociation.
We are all interested in the program of the school because—well, just
because we are Bethelites, and all Bethelites are interested in their school.
The grapevine is not always wrong. The genial guests of this ,
week were examining representatives of the North Central Associa-tion.
They spent two days with us and, undoubtedly, heard and
saw a great many things during those days, including some un-made
beds. Their observations will be turned into a written re-port
during the next several weeks and as such will be made
available to the Association's Board of Review, which already has
collected much information about the school.
Those of us who know most about the criteria being used, and
about the strengths and the weaknesses of our own school are
keeping our minds open as to how soon our new four-year college
program will be ready for admission to the North Central. We be-lieve
that our students too are with us in this open-mindedness.
Everybody knows that we have a good student body, and the examiners were
duly impressed. We know too that we do have a good faculty, even though some
of them are neither bald nor bearded. We do have a splendid library—it has
books, and the like—and it is paid for too! Our new fieldhouse is excellent, but
it is not all paid for as yet. Obviously, we as an administration are an unknown
quantity, but so are all administrations—even at Washington. Our courses are
solid, well-organized, and challenging, but we do not offer nearly as much as Sears
Roebuck catalog.
As we look backwards, we are amazed to see how the Lord has led and pro-vided.
As we look forward, our concern is that we might be faithful. Fortunately,
the value of the students educational experiences on campus, whether seen in
terms of lives or in terms of transcripts, is not at stake. The only question is—how
fast is the Lord leading into wider spheres of service? Toward the finding of the
Lord's answer to that question we know that we have the united prayers and
efforts of students, faculty, administration, board, and a host of friends from
coast to coast.

6144 gefitide4 by Dr. Virgil A. Olson
In the later part of the nineteenth century, an ancient manuscript was dis-covered
in Egypt by some English research scholars. The treasure of the manu-script
remained hidden because there was much disagreement among the translators
as to the actual meaning of the hieroglyphics. Finally, it was suggested that a copy
of the manuscript be sent to an able scholar of Egyptology in America, namely
John Alexis Edgren. After careful study, Edgren submitted a translation which
the English scholars immediately approved; so much so, that the Archbishop of
Canterbury wrote a letter to Edgren commending
him on his masterful translation. Edgren, the
founder of Bethel, was an intellectual giant. The
son of this Conference Baptist pioneer testifies
that his father knew sixteen spoken and sixteen
unspoken languages.
Edgren had a tremendous capacity for work.
in the early days of the Seminary history, most
of the subjects were taught by its leader. Beside
the heavy teaching program, Edgren found time
and energy to be the pastor of the First Swedish
Baptist Church of Chicago, the editor of the
first denominational paper of our Conference;
and he took courses in Greek and Hebrew,
as well as a review of Higher Mathematics at
the University of Chicago. Edgren was a giant
in zealous toil and industry.
One morning Edgren came to his class at the
Seminary and expressed deep concern for the
future of the school. Funds were desperately
needed. That day studies were laid aside, and
prayer was made unto the living God to supply
the needs. The students became anxious over
the teacher's condition and went to his home
and learned that their leader had received_no salary for two months. Their first
impulse was to write to the people in the churches and tell of the needs, but
Edgren reminded them that they had prayed, and that was enough. The following
day the instructor appeared bright and happy. "Brethren," he said, "God has heard
our prayers, we now have received money." This was not an isolated incident,
but a daily experience. Bethel was born and nurtured in prayer. Edgren was a
spiritual giant of faith.
"There were giants in the earth in those days." One man with gigantic intel-lectual
and spiritual capacities laid the foundaion of our school as a wise master
builder. The words of the Apostle, consequently, are significant for the present
generation. "Let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon."

I am sure that all our pastors, young and

those who are to be "hearers and doers"

It was a beautiful morning. The sail was
smiling brightly through the fleecy, white
clouds in the blue, blue sky.
Robby awoke with a start. Why here the
day was almost one-fourth gone and in-'
stead of being busy about his work, he was
wasting the time sleeping. He started to
go back to sleep, but then arose with a
start—why he had almost forgotten. This
was the day—the day in which he was to
make one of the most important decisions
of his life. This was the day his mom and
dad had been telling him about for days,
weeks, yes, and even months. How he had
waited for the day with a mixed emotion
of fear and anxiety.
Anxiety because if he was successful in
his adventure, it would mean happiness
and joy for the rest of his life. And—if
he failed—Oh—the thought of it just made
his skinny, little legs tremble. If he failed,
he would be very unhappy and lonely.
When Robby looked up into the sky, he
saw Old Mr. Sun just smiling at him in such
an encouraging way that he hopped up
quickly, determined to succeed. Robby
knew that first impressions were very im-portant
so he looked for the biggest, fattest
gift he could find and then started on
his way.
He was hopping along singing a gay little
ditty when all of a sudden he saw her.
Robby knew in a minute she was for him—
and suddenly he wasn't even frightened
anymore. He just hopped right up to her,
gave her his gift, and in less than half an
hour they were flying over to Rev. Love-bird's
house to hear him say—"I now pro-nounce
you Mr. and Mrs. Robin Redbreast."
Yes, fantastic though it may seem, the
idea behind this little fictitious incident
was the beginning of our Valentine's Day.
It was an ancient belief that the birds
mated on the second fort-night of the sec-ond
month of the year.
"For this was on seynt Valentynes day,"
wrote Chaucer in the "Parle.ment of
Foules," "when every foul cometh ther to
chese his make." Because of this ancient
belief, for many years it has been the cus-tom
in many countries to send Valentines
to the one we wish to please.

Dear Editor,
What happened to the Arts
Club? Why has it become disorgan-ized?
Is there any hope of reviving
The Arts Club was organized in
the fall of 1951, as an outgrowth
of the "Lads and Lassies" and
"Lords and Ladies." They were
collegiate social societies, begun in
1948 and dissolved by the student
council in 1951 on the grounds
that there was too much competi-tive
spirit and that they did not
fulfill their intended cultural pur-pose.
It seems to me that this kind of
a spirit would serve as an incen-tive
to the club leaders to really
plan and make their meetings as
interesting as possible. If the meet
ings amounted to something and
were profitable for the students,
there would be no problem of get-ting
them interested in the club.
Since it began in the fall of
1951, the Arts Club suffered and
finally died from a lack of leader-ship.
This lack came not only from
the student body, but also from
the faculty, who, I'm quite sure,
recognize the need for a cultural
club of this sort on our campus.
We are told ever so often that we
need to be well rounded culturally
—and we do—but what have we
done to bring this culture within
the grasp of the students?
A feeble attempt was made in
the person of the Arts Club—and
frankly, it flopped.
The Arts Club is dead. Other
schools have profitable cultural
clubs—but not Bethel. We seem to
be satisfied with little more than
our language clubs and a pepless
pep club.
We need the Arts Club at Beth-el.
But it's dead, so what are we
going to do about it?

For the purpose of enhancing
the library, a member of the Beth-el
faculty has contributed money
for the planters which have been
placed in the front of the library.
These planters not only serve as
means of decoration and a fine
separation for the magazine sec-tion,
but they are also for the dis-play
of books. On the bottom of
one planter is found a / group of
books mainly for recreational read-ing,
whereas the other shelf con-tains
new books which have just
arrived in the library.
In addition to these planters, the
library will also receive framed,
colored prints which will be hung
in appropriate places above book
Not included in the donation to
the library, but a new purchase, is
the 11-foot index table which will
be placed at the top of the stair-way

more room for magazines.
The recent displays on the stand
above the reference shelves have
included new books, music, art,

Bud has found it necessary to quit basketball to devote more
his studies and to his work.
Bud has played for the Blue and

is in all likelihood the best all-around
player to ever don a Bethel
In his first season at Bethel, Bud
played varsity ball along with Ken
Greenman, Gordy Wood, B u d
Bjorndahl and Don Peterson under
coach Paul Edwards. Two years
ago he captained the Bethel team
and was elected by his teammates
to serve as co-captain this year
along with Pete Unruh.
Standing only 5'8" tall, Bud has
harrassed opponents by his ball-hawking
and ball-handling and has
always been a scoring threat. Bud's
14.8 point average led the Royals
in scoring two years ago.
Bethel players respect him, not
only for his playing ability but also
for his sportsmanship and self-con-trol.

Many solo artists and musical groups perform for decades without receiving a Grammy nomination. The Pacific Mambo Orchestra, on the other hand, was just nominated in the category of Best Tropical Latin Band for its self-titled debut album.
The group was founded in 2010 by Steffen Kuehn, a German trumpeter, and Christian Tumalan, a Mexican pianist who is, among other things, a piano teacher at Woodland School in Portola Valley. Currently, the two are the co-directors of PMO Mr. Kuehn directs the horns and Mr. Tumalan the rhythm section.
The creation of Pacific Mambo Orchestra can be traced to 2010, when Mr. Tumalan and Mr. Kuehn met at a recording session for an album to which they both contributed. While chatting between takes, they discovered their mutual interest in forming a larger Latin jazz group.
For his part, Mr. Tumalan had become interested in Latin jazz about a decade earlier, while studying for his first of four musical degrees, this one in classical piano music at the Escuela Superior de Musica in Mexico City. Listening to the radio in the car one day, he heard Tito Puente's song, "Ran Kan Kan," a classic of the Latin jazz genre, and was reminded of how much he liked it. Instantly inspired, he thought to himself, "I'm going to be doing something like this (someday)."
After joining forces, Mr. Kuehn and Mr. Tumalan made a deal with the owner of San Francisco's popular salsa club, Cafe Cocomo, to rehearse every Monday night, when most musicians take the night off. Within 18 months, Mr. Tumalan says, "We had a packed house on any given Monday night. Word spread (to elite local musicians), and that's how we put the band together."
In 2012, after just a year and a half of performing together, PMO decided to release an album. Mr. Tumalan and Mr. Kuehn raised money through a Kickstarter campaign to independently produce the album under the "Stefrecords & Tumalan Music" label.
Their goal for the record was to help a wide range of people to "connect with Latin music," Mr. Tumalan says.
To that end, they blended genres in the songs they recorded, and even added a Latin groove to Stevie Wonder's "Overjoyed." Virtuoso Kenny Washington did the vocals on the track. "In my opinion," says Mr. Tumalan, "he sings it better than Stevie Wonder."
Among other guests artists, the album features Tito Puente Jr., the son of the artist whose song "Ran Kan Kan" originally inspired Mr. Tumalan to form a big Latin jazz group.
After its release in October 2012, the album hit top charts in Europe and South America, and reached Tim Fox, the president of Columbia Artists Management. Mr. Fox secured PMO a national tour, which they completed a few weeks ago.
PMO's competition for the Grammy is relatively steep: they're up against past winners like Carlos Vives and Marc Anthony. "The four other nominees are really heavyweights in the industry," Mr. Tumalan says. But members of the Pacific Mambo Orchestra are hopeful that their novelty will work in their favor on Jan. 26 at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards.

From your story it becomes clear that the 45-spline-to-angle-gear petrol M66 diff paired with the D5 final gear ring without issues. Is it so?
With all this effort you got M66 with wide diesel gears and 4:1 final drive + 45 spline output mounting the P80 angle gear without worries... Brilliant.
Last thing - interestingly, if it is possible to interchange the XC final gear pair into AWD housing ?

Unmatched in their softness and consistency, Schmincke soft pastels were created using the finest artist's pigments and a minimum of binders. Pastel softness permits beautiful dense application, and high pigment concentration results in intense colors.
Color Swatches created using heavy to light application and were applied on 100 lb (163 gsm) drawing paper material.
chrome antimony titanate
Chrome Antimony Titanate is a staining, opaque yellowish brown pigment. It is often used to replace the original Naples Yellow or Chrome Yellow, both of which are highly toxic pigments.
Chrome Antimony Titanate has excellent lightfastness and weatherfastness.
Chrome Antimony Titanate has negligible acute toxicity. In testing with rabbits, it was shown to be minimally irritating to the skin and eyes. Since it has the hexavalent structure of a chromium yellow, whether Chrome Antimony Titanate is a potential carcinogen has been a subject of controversy. At this time, regulations in the USA do not require it to be labeled in any way.
Chrome Antimony Titanate is used in ceramics, plastics, and industrial coatings.
Chrome Antimony Titanium Buff Rutile, Chrome Titanate, Chrome Titanate Brown
chromium oxide
Chromium Oxide Green is a dull, dense, willow or pale green color that is completely opaque. It has an average drying time and a low tinting strength. It is fairly flexible in oil form and is suitable for all purposes and mediums. This pigment is less versatile in mixtures than Viridian and Phthalocyanine Green, but mixes well with other colors without overpowering them.
Chromium Oxide Green has excellent permanence, even at high temperatures.
Chromium Oxide Green is slightly toxic. Evidence of Chromium(III) carcinogenicity is inconclusive. Chromium(III) salts appear in greenish pigments such as PG17. Chromium(VI) salts, which appear in yellowish pigments, have been proven to cause cancer.
Louis-Nicolas Vauquelin discovered the element chromium in lead chromate in 1797. It began to be used as an enamel and ceramic color in 1809, but it had limited use as a pigment until 1862, because of its cost. It is the most commonly used green for military camouflage because it appears the same shade as living foliage under infrared light.
Chrome Oxide Green, Olive Green, Permanent Green. Varieties of Chromium Oxide Green include Arnaudon's Green, Dingler's Green, Plessy's Green, and Schnitzer's Green.
iron oxides
FeO or Fe2O3
Mars Black is an opaque black with a strong and cool masstone, a slightly warm tint, and a warm brown undertone. It is not as black as Ivory Black, but it dries more quickly and has three times the tinting strength. Mars Black is normally the only black available in acrylic form and that is safe to over paint. It can be used in all media without reservation and is widely used as an alternative to Lamp Black and Ivory Black.
Mars Black is very lightfast with excellent permanence.
Mars Black has no significant hazards and is the only major black pigment considered non-toxic.
The word Mars refers to the Roman god of iron and war. Mars Black was developed in the early 20th century from inorganic, synthetic iron oxide.
Black Iron Oxide, Iron Black, Magnetic Oxide, Mapico Black, Mineral Black. Sometimes labeled as Vine Black.
mixed metal oxide
Nickel Titanium Yellow is one of the cleanest and brightest of the inorganic pigments. It has a low tinting strength and average to slow drying time.
Nickel Titanium Yellow has excellent lightfastness and outstanding stability with regard to chemicals, weather, and heat. It is durable in exterior conditions.
Nickel Titanium Yellow is not considered toxic.
Nickel Titanium Yellow was developed in the 1960s.
Nickel Titanate Yellow, Nickel Yellow.
polychlorinated copper(II) phthalocyanine
C32H3Cl13CuN8 to C32HCl15CuN8 or C32H16CuN8Cl15 (PG7) or C32Br6Cl10CuN8 (PG36)
Phthalo Green is a transparent, cool, bright, high intensity color used in oil and acrylics. It comes from a Phthalocyanine Blue pigment where most of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced with chlorine, forming highly stable molecules. It has similar pigment properties and permanence to Phthalo Blue. It is slow drying and an excellent base color for mixing a range of bright greens. Phthalo Green is considered a very good alternative to Viridian because it is intense and mixes well and can be used to emphasize mineral colors in various tints. However, its tinting strength is very high, so it can overpower other colors. This pigment most closely resembles the discontinued and toxic Verdigris.
Phthalo Greens are completely lightfast and resistant to alkali, acids, solvents, heat, and ultraviolet radiation. They are currently used in inks, coatings, and many plastics due to their stability and are considered a standard pigment in printing ink and the packaging industry.
Phthalo Green has no significant hazards, but it contained PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) until 1982.
This bright blue-green was developed in 1935 and has been in use since 1938.

…and defeatism is not a strategy. That is my short answer to the Democrats' carping about President Bush's speech last night. Most absurd, in my view, are the howls of outrage protesting Bush's explanation that the war in Iraq is an important part of the war on terror that began on September 11. The Associated Press reports: "Bush Criticized for Linking 9/11 and Iraq":
Democrats in particular criticized Bush for again raising the Sept. 11 attacks as a justification for the protracted fight in Iraq…
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi accused Bush of demonstrating a willingness "exploit the sacred ground of 9/11, knowing that there is no connection between 9/11 and the war in Iraq."
Pelosi's claim that there is "no connection between 9/11 and the war in Iraq" is mind-numbingly obtuse. Let's itemize just the huge, obvious connections:
1) The people we are fighting in Iraq are Islamist terrorists, many of them associated with al Qaeda, the same organization that carried out the Sept. 11 attacks.
2) The principal purpose of the Iraq war is to promote the spread of freedom and democracy throughout the Arab world, which remains the only long-term cure for the problem of Islamist terrorism that anyone has proposed. (If the Democrats have an alternative, they're keeping it a secret.)
3) After Sept. 11, knowing what terrorists could achieve with (relatively) conventional weapons, it was no longer acceptable to risk leaving in power a tyrant like Saddam, who a) had a decades-long fascination with weapons of mass destruction; b) had used weapons of mass destruction on many occasions; c) was a long-time supporter of terrorist groups; and d) had long been viewed as such a threat to America and its allies that since 1998, regime change in Iraq had been the official policy of the United States government, based on an act of Congress.
4) Let's follow up on 3 c). One of the Democrats' most ridiculous mantras is that there was no connection between Saddam's Iraq and international terrorism. This claim is demonstrably false, but as usual, the Democrats are playing to the least well-informed Americans. Let's just itemize a few of Iraq's most notorious pre-war connections to 9/11 style terrorism:
a) Ansar al Islam, an al Qaeda branch, manufactured ricin for use in attacks on Europe.
b) Saddam hosted al Qaeda's number two leader, Zawahiri, in the 1990s.
c) Saddam harbored, and put on a government pension, one of the few perpetrators of the first World Trade Center bombing who escaped apprehension.
d) Saddam harbored Abu Nidal, once the world's most famous terrorist, until, for reasons that remain mysterious, Saddam apparently had him murdered shortly before the war began.
e) Saddam harbored Abu Abbas, organizer of the Achille Lauro cruise ship hijacking in 1984; Abbas was captured in Iraq during the first days of the war.
e) Zarqawi, the world's most deadly terrorist, fled Afghanistan when the Taliban fell at the end of 2001 and went to Iraq. Why? Because he knew that terrorists were welcome under Saddam.
f) From Iraq, Zarqawi organized the murder of American diplomat Lawrence Foley in Jordan.
g) From Iraq, Zarqawi organized and financed a chemical weapons attack on Jordan that could have killed tens of thousands. The perpetrators of that scheme are now on trial in Jordan.
h) Saddam paid the families of suicide bombers to encourage terrorist attacks against Israel.
These are just some of the many connections between Saddam's regime and international terrorism that we happen to know about. Others are known, and no doubt still more remain unknown.
The Associated Press seems to join in with the Democrats' ill-founded attack on President Bush with this paragraph:
Bush urged Americans to remember the lessons of Sept. 11 and protect "the future of the Middle East" from men like bin Laden. He repeatedly referred to the insurgents in Iraq as terrorists and said they were killing innocent people to try to "shake our will in Iraq, just as they tried to shake our will on September the 11th, 2001."
The "insurgents" are, in fact, terrorists, which is how they are pretty universally referred to by Iraqis. There are no soldiers taking the field against the U.S. armed forces in Iraq. There are only terrorists: suicide bombers with explosive belts around their waists and car bombers who blow up innocents, but not themselves. Why is this so hard for the AP and the Democrats to understand? In the case of the Democrats, I suppose the answer is that, if they admitted that the "insurgents" are in fact nothing more or less than terrorists, they would likewise have to admit that the war in Iraq has something to do with September 11 after all.
UPDATE: See also Andrew McCarthy in National Review, who notes various connections between Saddam's regime and international terrorism; he includes the under-reported story of Ahmed Hikmat Shakir:

If we don't have them already, then homeworlds like in the original game where you can recruit new crewmembers would be great, because four crew and a captain doesn't cut it. Also, how do you re-assign crewmembers, say, from medical to security, if you can? I don't particularly want two medics and one security.

Re: homeworlds
Hiring should make it into alpha5 in some form, at minimum to at least allow you to add crew in some manner. If it doesn't know that we definitely plan you able to hire crew from both home world like "safe" places, as well as find mercenaries and other types of characters to join. We'd love to expand this to work with loyalty and other systems so that someone may be more susceptible to becoming a traitor or charging up the other crew toward a mutiny, etc.

Professor Stump is a leader in bringing the clarity of modern analytic philosophy to bear on the rich treasures of medieval philosophy and much of her scholarship has focused upon questions relating to the existence and nature of God and the problem of evil. The 15 books that she has authored, edited, or co-edited, along with her almost 100 articles, have enriched the philosophical world and placed Christian thinkers everywhere in her debt.
The honors she has received bespeak the high respect in which her scholarly peers hold her. She recently delivered the prestigious Wilde Lecture at Oxford University where she spoke on "The Problem of Evil: What We Care About." In 2003 she delivered the Gifford Lectures at Saint Andrews University in Scotland where she spoke on "Wandering in Darkness: Narrative and the Problem of Evil," which is being published by Oxford University Press. Professor Stump has held visiting professorships at the Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt, at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, at Wuhan University, Wuhan, China, and was a visiting fellow at Oriel College, Oxford. Clearly her reputation as a scholar is internationally recognized. She has also served as the president of the Central Division of the American Philosophical Association, the Society of Christian Scholars, and the American Catholic Philosophical Association.
Like all great professors, Professor Stump has used her knowledge to inform her teaching. Her excellence as a teacher was recognized when she received the 2005 Robert Foster Cherry Award for Great Teaching from Baylor University.
Professor Stump received her bachelor's degree from Grinnell College, a master's degree from Harvard University in Biblical Studies, and a master's degree and doctoral degree from Cornell University in Medieval Philosophy. She has taught at Virginia Polytechnical Institute and State University and at the University of Notre Dame, and since 1992 has been the Henle Professor at Saint Louis University.
In her life as an academic Eleonore Stump has exemplified the ideals of excellence in scholarship and in teaching that Marquette has traditionally emphasized, and she has combined them with a deep commitment to the Christian faith. A Jesuit colleague has said of her, "She's had a transforming effect on the department and Saint Louis University not only through scholarship, but also through her companionship and faith."
Because of her excellence in research and teaching in the field of philosophy and her commitment and service to Catholic Jesuit education, Reverend President, I hereby recommend Eleonore A. Stump for the Marquette University Degree of Doctor of Letters, honoris causa.

PHOENIX -- Tommy Milone is hoping to improve upon his breakout rookie season.
He's off to a good start.
Milone pitched two scoreless innings in his first spring start and Josh Reddick hit a three-run homer in the third inning, leading the Oakland Athletics to a 6-3 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday.
Milone went 13-10 to tie a franchise record for wins by a rookie last year and led the A's with 190 innings pitched.
Despite his success in the big leagues, Milone said he is treating this spring as he did last year.
"It took a little while to get going, but I felt a little more comfortable in the second inning," the left-hander said after throwing 36 pitches. "It's just a matter of going out there and throwing to hitters in real situations."
Milone was trying to win a spot in the starting rotation last spring, and he's taking the same approach this year even though his place is certain.
"I'm trying to do the same thing," he said. "Trying not to let myself think I have a spot. I have to go out there and still perform every five (days) for the team and keep it close."
Reddick hit a three-run homer in the third inning and broke out of a 1 for 8 slump with two hits, and Brandon Moss also homered for the A's. Reddick hit 32 home runs last season.
"It's always nice in spring training when you get a couple of guys on, you get a good pitch to hit and just drive the ball," A's manager Bob Melvin said of Reddick's drive.
Eric Sogard and late-inning substitute Michael Choice drove in runs for Oakland, Sogard with a fourth-inning single and Choice a sacrifice fly in the sixth.
Jhoulys Chacin started for the Rockies and allowed three runs and four hits over 2 1-3 innings in his second spring training start. Chacin was limited last season to 14 starts because of right shoulder inflammation.
"That's what happens when you get behind counts," Chacin said of his outing. "I was just trying to sink down and away and the ball just stayed in the middle (on Reddick's home run). My changeup was really good and that's something I'm happy with."
Nolan Arenado hit a three-run shot in the sixth inning for Colorado. Arenado also hit a ball just a shade under 410 feet to straightaway center field, but A's outfielder Coco Crisp chased it down and made a basket catch in the fourth inning.
NOTES: Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez, catcher Ramon Hernandez and Chacin played their last games before heading to Puerto Rico to play for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic. Gonzalez singled, scored and walked twice and Hernandez was 1 for 3 and threw out a would-be base stealer. LHP Jorge De La Rosa, who is coming back from Tommy John surgery that limited him to three starts in 2012, makes his second spring training start Sunday when the same two teams meet in Scottsdale, Ariz. . The A's are scheduled to start RHP A.J. Griffin against the Rockies. Griffin was 7-1 in 15 starts last season and pitched two scoreless innings in his spring training debut last week. ... New Oakland SS Hiroyuki Nakajima was twice hit by pitches in the game but said afterward he felt fine. He stole a base and scored a run, and has already become a fan favorite at A's spring training games, where one fan led a "Na-ka! Ji-ma!" chant in the stands.

Federal Environment Minister Malcolm Turnbull wants to change the standards for lights to phase out the old-school electricity-chewing incandescent globes by 2010. This seems to me a sensible move that will make a modest impact at a modest cost. Joshua Gans is underwhelmed by the idea but Grant Young thinks it's a good start.
Meanwhile, the libertarians at Catallaxy are incensed by this abolition of our freedom to waste electricity. I have sympathy with their 'don't ban things, persuade people to change instead' philosophy, but I don't think phasing incandescents out over 4 years is really such a big deal (from a personal freedom, or any other, perspective). If people are really worried about it, they have three years to stockpile incandescent lights (maybe in the underground bunkers that some of Catallaxy's commenters no doubt have ready for when the leftist global warming conspiracy gives the UN an excuse to take over the world and abolish all personal freedoms).
Harry Clarke crunches the numbers for suburban backyard rain water tanks and concludes that they just don't make any economic sense.
Rising rents
Every second article in the Herald seems to be about rents going through the roof. Joshua Gans argues that proposed rent subsidies won't help anyone except landlords.
Carbon offsets
Grant Young asks a very sensible question:
I wonder - if Richard Branson is splashing all this money around to reduce climate change, why doesn't his airline have an "offset this flight" button when you book a flight?What a great idea. Make it easy for people to offset their emissions at the point of sale, let them know how much it would cost, and no doubt many will take it up. Perhaps just as importantly, even if people choose not to offset, providing this will educate people about air travel emissions, what offsets are and how much the 'carbon cost' of their flight is.
People that want it can get it easily when they're booking the flight. People that don't simply uncheck the box.
Have a great weekend.

Win or lose Saturday night at UFC 148 versus Tito Ortiz, Forrest Griffin is Stephan Bonnar's next opponent if "The American Psycho" gets his wish of a trilogy fight with the former UFC light-heavyweight champion.
The Las Vegas-based Bonnar understands UFC president Dana White recently shot down a recent Twitter campaign to have "The Ultimate Fighter 1" finalists coach prospective UFC fighters on the upcoming 16th season.
Still, the 35-year-old wants to meet again the man he battled for 15 minutes in April 2005 to a unanimous-decision defeat. The instant classic earned the "greatest fight in UFC history" tag because – as White often points out – it's the most important. Those three rounds became the Bonnar-Griffin Boom, which ushered in the UFC's defining six years on Spike TV and pay-per-view leading to the octagon's arrival on FOX in November.
"He can bring out the best in me," Bonnar told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). "We can have a complete action-packed fight that the fans love. I want to give them a good fight. Also Forrest is a really big name. I want to fight people with lots of Twitter followers. Give me the big names."
In Griffin (18-7 MMA, 9-5 UFC), Bonnar (14-7 MMA, 8-6 UFC) sees an opponent with an established personal history and place in UFC lure – an opponent worth putting his three-fight win streak (Krzysztof Soszynski, Igor Pokrajac and Kyle Kingsbury) up against. The reputation the Hammond, Ill. native enjoys as a fighter favoring slugfests or marching on through wars of attrition weighs on Bonnar going into his career's later years. A 14-fight, seven-year octagon veteran, entertainment is not lost on him, so Bonnar asks for the right fighter when potentially sacrificing brain cells in rugged exchanges.
"I'm getting old," Bonnar said. "I can't do this forever. I know. I know me. I've had lots of injuries and surgeries. I've got a couple good years left in me. I'd like to make it worth my while. I'd like to retire with a lot of money from fighting."
Now that Bonnar is chomping at the bit for a chance to step in the cage against Griffin, he believes the third contest can compel audiences more like the first contest than the second, leaving a lasting impression by extending their fight history 15 or – if the money's right – 25 minutes.
"Think about it; say it's after the third round and I've taken a lot of shots and I'm hurt and all that. I suck it up 10 more minutes. Those 10 minutes can mean eternal brain damage," explained Bonnar about his reluctance to accept a five-round non-title fight instead of a three-round contest without added compensation. "I'll take that chance if it's going to be worth my while, but if not, then I don't see the point."
Financial security is everything for a fighter. So is legacy. As windows close for both, the third match with Griffin stands out as raising the right stakes for Bonnar.
"Story of my life is I've fought all the best guys for the worst pay days," the Sergio Penha jiu-jitsu black belt said. "I fought Machida for $500. Greatest fight of all-time with Forrest, I got $5,000 for it. For Rashad I think I got $12,000. For Jones, I got $20,000. I've been in all those fights too. I've got a couple of years, so I want to make them worth my while."
Recalling the historical first fight with Griffin in a third contest is fitting for what could be the final stages of Bonnar's career. It's something he really wants, which couldn't be said truthfully about their August 2006 bout – the second (and not as competitive) unanimous-decision defeat dropped to Griffin.
"The second fight I didn't want to be there," he said. "I tried not taking the fight. I had a couple of really bad injuries, and I didn't want to be there. I was just happy with losing a competitive decision. That's what I did.
"After that fight, I got surgery on my elbow. Well, also 30 seconds in the fight, I shattered my right hand. I had surgery on that. It was a rough night."
Like any fighter on the wrong side of the win column, there's restlessness in Bonnar to stand off with Griffin once more since he feels "on" in recent performances. Bonnar has not fought since UFC 139 this past November – a conservative outing that drew rare boos. He's staying busy while awaiting his next assignment, hosting a charity event this Friday night for Garrett Holeve, a 22-year-old mixed martial artist with Down's syndrome. The next night he'll watch his friend Griffin tangle in co-main-event action while certain Ortiz exits the cage without a win.
For the Griffin trilogy, he'd like three months to prepare to deliver a memorable final fight.
"People know they can fight me and be involved in a gritty slugfest, but I'm all about opening," Bonnar of how he's evolved since the initial Griffin fights. "It doesn't matter what it is. I'm not too strong. I'm not too fast. I'm not a great wrestler. I couldn't even qualify for state in high school my senior year in Indiana of high school, but I like fighting at a fast pace every second of every fight putting it all on the line."
The two UFC original personalities have served each other's careers well. They are everymen who work to rise to the occasion and perhaps never have more than the level they did at the pivotal conclusion of the inaugural "TUF" season. It's not just cashing in on history and name value for Bonnar. He reminds the 33-year-old Griffin there's an open invitation to light his competitive fire as the former champion openly contemplates retirement.
"Once you get in there and you hit him in the face, piss him off, it's going to come out of him," Bonnar said. "He's going to fight ass off like his life depended on it. You need the right opponent for that fight. I'm that guy."

Amit Apel Design and style produced a household home in Los Angeles, California, USA about the colours of black, white and different shades of grey. The bold contrasts between the black and white walls are tempered by the various textures utilized all through the home. In the dining space the textures are presented 1st within the concrete flooring and then in the lush geometrically patterned location rug below the table and most impressively in the globe of sparkling crystals inside the light fixture. Although the area only utilizes black, grey and white as its muse, pops of blues and greens from the pool and garden outside wrap the space in a cool and crisp atmosphere.
From the street, the residence creates a profile of white and wood and does not belie the powerful black compositions inside.
As you pass through the fence surrounding the property and make your way to the front entrance, shades of black make their presence identified within the aggregate walkway an the smooth concrete pavers. Right here, also, greenery is introduced by way of plantings as a grout line around the pavers and in tiny function moments.
The back of the residence presents a a lot more contemporary profile with its walls of window glazings and geometric voids.
The backyard is divided with a lawn on one side and the spa and pool on the other. Although the pool is directly outside the dining area, it can also be accessed through the outdoor lounge area just outdoors the indoor living zone.
The dining area has two huge sections of gridded window glazings that can be totally opened up for an indoor/outside way of life.
The windows completely retract into the walls for a seamless integration to the outdoors.
The black wall inside the dining room does not run the full length of the room, allowing for a view into the social zone beyond. In the corner of the social zone is the home workplace, entirely wrapped in glazing, generating both a private and however public space.
The office attributes the same black gridded windows as the dining space and this detail is continued within the framework of the two chairs facing the desk.
The wall that separates the living space from the dining area is also black on the living space side, although opposite the fireplace wall is a composition of white shelving.
The gridded glass wall in the living area also opens up to produce an outside extension of the social zone.
I adore how the hearth floats a couple of inches above the concrete floor to produce a dark shadow line.
The office is centrally situated among the living area and the kitchen
The white of the kitchen cabinets pop against both the black walls that surround them and the wood that wraps the island. The wood on the bar is a beautiful backdrop to the two white barstools. The appear is clean, crisp and rather amazing.
Whilst the kitchen is in the front of the property, it can nonetheless take advantage of the garden vistas through the massive expanses of glazings in the dining and living zones. The gridding on all the windows and the back wall separating the dining and living rooms create a continuum to the black walls within the kitchen.
Although the kitchen has the exact same flooring used elsewhere within this level, the kitchen itself is on a "floating" platform. Much like the hearth of the fireplace, the dramatic shadow line created at the level modify emphasizes the modify of plane. Generating extra geometry, verticality and colour to the space is the concrete planter filled with the yellow and green variegated leaves of a big clump of Snake plants.
Just previous the kitchen is the major entrance to the house and in this foyer, street chic is played up by way of the installation of a exciting black and white wall paper on the stairwell wall.
The double volume foyer opens to the kitchen on the left, the stairwell on the right and a tiny powder area straight ahead.
The powder room is tucked into the space beneath the mezzanine.
The powder space features a wall of reclaimed wood, a glitzy light fixture and a sculptural sink with a floor standing faucet. The space is entertaining, creative, elegant, rustic and down appropriate gorgeous.
The treads inside the open riser staircase are produced from strong planks of wood cantilevered out from the street vibe wallpaper, creating a 3 dimensional statement that is a lot more like an art installation then a functional stairwell, but functional it most definitely is.
At the leading of the stairwell a mezzanine wrapped in a Stainless Steel security rail appears back down to the social level under.
Just off of the mezzanine, an open loved ones area delivers comfy seating for socializing just before turning in for the evening.
The loved ones area has its own private washroom as well as its own access to a deck.
The bathroom off of the loved ones area is wrapped in large 24″x24″ tiles tonally the same as the flooring downstairs.
With no large pops of black within this washroom, the wood surround on the mirror becomes the focal point.
The Master Suite has its own private outside lounge area.
The deck off of the Master Suite is kept even more private by the tall evergreen hedging that flanks the side of the deck.
With the surrounding properties only a single level, the view from the deck is all encompassing.
The deck overlooks the front of the residence.
The ensuite also overlooks the front of the property, but even so, the architects created this area to have big sweeping views by way of a wall of glazing that can be appreciated from every vantage point whether or not bathing, showering, making use of the sink or other and although the views are a fairly nice addition to the space, the elements inside the room are simply gorgeous.
The 3 light fixtures over the soaker tub are a gorgeous composition of gridding in different shapes that project a honeycomb shadow pattern all through the area and the impact is as great as the pendants themselves. Then there';s the glass wrapped double shower stall – wow.
Across from the soaker tub and stroll-in shower is exactly where the vanity is positioned. A extended white cantilevered cabinet with a white sink at either end and an equally long mirror above that reflects both the view and the pendants more than the tub, the vanity zone is a functional, sleek, contemporary minimalist moment.
The second of the 3 additional bedrooms plays with the colour white by means of numerous textures in the gigantuous vessels, the location rug and the bed itself. Every single a single of these textures creates its personal story within its shadows for an interestingly sculptural room composition.
The area also plays with black and characteristics a wall in matte black, bedside tables and lamps in black as nicely as two chairs. As opposed to most of the other black and white rooms, this space has added a touch of colour through the two silvery blue cushions on the chairs.
This bedroom has a narrow deck that overlooks the pool and spa, so the bluish pillows are selecting up on the watery components beneath
The ensuite of this bedroom is a jazzy expression of giant brush strokes on the wall that is countered by a geometric show inside the vanity and storage systems. Layered into these opposing fluid and structured styles is a simple and elegant wood vessel sink. Just lovely.
The guest bedroom characteristics a white and silver bulls head above the bed for a moment of whimsical fun.
Adding to the "entertaining" aspect of the room is the black and white pop art painting above the dresser.
The ensuite to the guest bedroom replaces the white cabinetry with a midnight grey floating vanity that features a glass countertop. The vanity is a crisp statement against the textured stacked stonewall.
One more bathroom inside the Mansfield property plays with horizontal and vertical shapes by layering a tall and narrow mirror more than a two-tiered vanity. Pretty cool.

Government fines GM maximum $35M in safety case
WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. safety regulators have fined General Motors $35 million for delays in recalling small cars with faulty ignition switches that are linked to at least 13 deaths.
It's the maximum penalty that the government can impose and the first time an automaker has been fined that much. But the amount is less than a day's revenue for GM, based on the $37.4 billion it took in during the first quarter.
As part of an agreement announced Friday by the Transportation Department and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, GM also has agreed to government oversight on safety issues, and to report safety problems much faster than in the past.
NHTSA has been investigating GM's delayed recall of older small cars with defective ignition switches. GM has acknowledged knowing about the problem for at least a decade, but it didn't start recalling the cars until February of this year. The department said in a statement that GM agreed that it was slow to report the problems.
The company says at least 13 people have died in crashes linked to the problem, but trial lawyers suing the company say the death toll is at least 53. Ignition switches on Chevrolet Cobalts and Saturn Ions can slip out of the "run" position and shut off the engine. That cuts off the power steering and brakes, potentially causing drivers to lose control. It also disables the car's air bags.
Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, at a morning news conference in Washington, said the government will not accept a company failing to notify regulators about safety defects.
"Literally silence can kill," he said. "GM did not act and did not alert us in a timely manner. What GM did was break the law."
Acting NHTSA Administrator David Friedman said that a previously undisclosed 2009 memo from a parts supplier to GM clearly stated that the ignition switch problem could disable the small cars' air bags, which clearly is a safety problem.
"This is information that General Motors had from their supplier that General Motors never shared with us," he said.
Had the government possessed this information, it would have sought a recall at that time, Friedman said. The safety agency has been criticized for not requiring GM to recall the small cars despite numerous complaints from owners.
The $35 million penalty was doubled from last year. But Foxx still urged Congress to pass legislation that would raise the fine to $300 million.
Automakers are required to report safety defects within five days of discovering them.
Under the agreement, GM will have to make "significant and wide-ranging internal changes" to its safety review process, the government said. The company also has to pay added penalties for failing to meet NHTSA's deadline to answer questions about the ignition switches.
NHTSA began fining GM $7,000 per day in early April after it missed the deadline.
In a separate statement announcing the agreement, GM CEO Mary Barra said, "GM's ultimate goal is to create an exemplary process and produce the safest cars for our customers - they deserve no less."
In addition to NHTSA, two congressional committees and the Justice Department also are investigating GM. The Justice Department could bring a much larger penalty and possible criminal charges. Earlier this year it made Toyota pay $1.2 billion for concealing unintended acceleration problems from NHTSA.
Clarence Ditlow, executive director of the nonprofit Center for Auto Safety, said it was inevitable that GM would be fined $35 million. The big issue now, he said, is what the Justice Department will do.
Ditlow wants Justice to impose a fine of $1 billion or more and bring individual criminal charges against GM engineers and their superiors.
"That's the only way you're going to change GM's behavior," he said.

From failure to fusilli, this deliciously hilarious read tells the story of Giulia Melucci's fizzled romances and the mouth-watering recipes she used to seduce her men, smooth over the lumps, and console herself when the relationships flamed out.
From an affectionate alcoholic, to the classic New York City commitment-phobe, to a hipster aged past his sell date, and not one, but two novelists with Peter Pan complexes, Giulia has cooked for them all. She suffers each disappointment with resolute cheer (after a few tears) and a bowl of pastina (recipe included) and has lived to tell the tale so that other women may go out, hopefully with greater success, and if that's not possible, at least have something good to eat.
Peppered throughout Giulia's delightful and often poignant remembrances are fond recollections of her mother's cooking, the recipes she learned from her, and many she invented on her own inspired by the men in her life. Readers will howl at Giulia's boyfriend-littered past and swoon over her irresistible culinary creations.

From this layout, the homeowner and Tonita Moffat-White of cotton tree, took on the challenge of mixing and matching fabric. Pink, peach, and grey with splashes of rust for effect, were chosen as the principal colours. The colour scheme is also primarily responsible for knitting all the seating groups together.
The secret lies in getting the scale right and in grouping furniture. Rather than have large, oversized furniture in the living area to fill up the huge space, this homeowner of a mansion decided to use medium-sized furniture and arrange it in formal and casual groups. In doing this she created cosy, inviting and arresting seating groups.

We may not have eaten so healthfully our entire lives. We may have a family history of breast, prostate or colon cancer. What should we do? Just wait until cancer is found?
Getting medical screenings is certainly a personal decision, but if we really want to win the war against cancer, we must improve the nutritional quality of our diet. We have all heard about the antioxidant effects our bodies derive from the phytochemicals in plant foods. However, the unique phytochemicals found in cruciferous vegetables offer superior benefits. Cruciferous vegetables contain phytochemicals that have unique abilities to modify human hormones, detoxify compounds, and prevent toxic compounds from binding to human DNA, preventing toxins from causing DNA damage that could lead to cancer. Studies have even shown that genetic defects that may lead to cancer are suppressed by the consumption of green cruciferous vegetables.
Certainly, many studies have shown that eating fresh fruits, beans, vegetables, seeds, and nuts reduces the occurrence of cancer. I plotted cancer incidence in 25 countries against unrefined plant food intake and found that as vegetables, beans, and fruit consumption goes up 20% in a population, cancer rates typically drop 20%. But cruciferous vegetables are different; they have been shown to be twice as effective. As cruciferous vegetable intake goes up 20%, in a population, cancer rates drop 40%.
Dr. Fuhrman shares the nutritional science that supports the importance of greens in your diet
Include them in both raw and cooked forms and eat a variety of them. These benefits cannot be duplicated by taking any one pre-formed compound or supplement.
The evidence is now overwhelming that cruciferous vegetables play a major and unique role in the widely recognized protective effects of natural plant foods against cancer—and are the most important players in this arena. The biologically active compounds from raw and conservatively cooked green vegetables enhance the natural defenses of the human body against DNA damage and they even fuel the body's ability to block growth and replication of cells that are already damaged. For those in the know, these foods are the most important nutritional factors to prevent common human cancers.
