The Sands Hotel (or the Sands) was a hotel and casino located in Las Vegas, Nevada on Earth. In the holosuite program Bashir 62, a rendition of 1962, the Sands was one of the biggest venues along the Vegas Strip.
Vic Fontaine once recalled to Odo that Frank and Dean dropped in on him once while he was playing at the Sands, back in 1958. Together, the three of them took over one of the blackjack tables and dropped a combined $15,000. (DS9: "His Way")
Following the hostile takeover of his lounge by Frankie Eyes, Vic attempted to get gigs at other local casinos including the D.I., the Sands and the Dunes. None of them returned his calls. (DS9: "Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang")
Vic and his lady friend Ginger later saw Jimmy and Pete perform at the Sands. (DS9: "What You Leave Behind")

21 September is the International Peace Day. On this day, communities around the world gather to organize events in favour of global peace and against violence and war. London will host, among other, the last in a trilogy of Peace One Day concerts at the Wembley Arena. The concerts, streamed live on youtube, are part of the Global Truce campaign, which aims to be the largest ever gathering of individuals in the name of peace on one day. As with the previous Peace One Day concerts, Wembley will be host to a number of famous artists, including the likes of Sir Elton John, James Morrison and 2CELLOS. Peace One Day Ambassadors Jude Law and Lily Cole will be the concert hosts.
During its 10 year existence, Peace One Day events have made a difference in various regions of conflict, most notably in Afghanistan, where Peace Day agreements have led to the vaccination against polio of 4.5 million children in recent years. In 2008 the UN Department for Safety and Security announced a 70% reduction in violent incidents in Afghanistan on Peace Day.
Since its establishment by the UN in 1981, Peace Day has proved to be an opportunity for life-saving activities and action by individuals worldwide. Still, peace is a rarity, whereas war and violence are still daily practice in many regions around the world. According to Assistant Secretary-General for Peacebuilding Support, Judy Cheng-Hopkins, "more than 1.5 billion people live in countries ravaged by war, these countries unfortunately tend to relapse into violent conflict. Conflict and instability breathe poverty and human rights abuses against the most venerable, usually women and children". Unfortunately, events like the Peace One Day concert are therefore still necessary.
The Peace One Day Celebration will be streamed LIVE only via Peace One Day's YouTube channel from 7.30pm BST (1:30 EST / 8:30pm CET) on Peace Day — Friday 21 September 2012. Wherever you are in the world you can join Peace One Day in celebrating Peace Day and Global Truce 2012.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Ondrej Palat and Martin St. Louis scored third-period goals to help the Tampa Bay Lightning rally for a 3-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday night.
After St. Louis pulled the Lightning even at 14:09, Palat made it 3-2 from the low slot 1:46 later.
Tyler Johnson had the other Tampa Bay goal as the Lightning completed a seven-game homestand with a 5-2 record.
Brian Flynn and Thomas Vanek scored for Buffalo, which was coming off a 3-1 win at Florida on Friday night in which the Sabres were outshot 45-21.
Buffalo took a 2-1 lead when Vanek scored from the low left circle after taking a nifty pass from Marcus Foligno 12:46 into the third. Vanek has 24 goals and 39 points in 33 games against Tampa Bay.
Flynn tied it at 1-all with 7:02 left in the second when he scored off a pass through the crease by Cody McCormick.
Johnson put the Lightning up 1-0 on a rebound power-play goal at 12:48 of the first. The goal came after Sabres defenseman Tyler Myers failed to swat away the puck after Ryan Miller made a save on Valtteri Filppula's shot.
Buffalo has been outscored 16-1 during the first period this season.
Tampa Bay's Ben Bishop stopped a backhand by Steve Ott during a breakaway midway through the first.
Miller made several nice saves early in the second when Tampa Bay had two power plays. The goalie made a post-to-post save on St. Louis' right circle shot.
NOTES: Buffalo LW Ville Leino, activated before the game from injured reserve, had an assist. He missed 11 games due to a rib injury. … The Sabres placed D Mike Weber on IR with an upper-body injury. … Tampa Bay D Victor Hedman, who took a shot off his right foot in Thursday's win over Chicago, played.

Having done it and come back feeling totally refreshed I now know the reasons why : 1. The weather 2. The food.....And in Granada its free - order a beer in most of the bars and you'll be served food or "tapas" with it for free. Find the bars the Spanish go to and a couple of small beers (small beer costs a Euro-ish) is enough for lunch. Ive had everything from paella, fresh fish, garlic soup etc to burger and fries! 3. Free beer....After youve done the tapas in the evening too, go down the streets where the pubs are and there'll be any number of girls handing out free drinks tickets. Simply go in the bars for the free drink and move on for the next one. This goes on till about 2a.m. when the partying really starts. 4. Oh yeah, learn Spanish. I did it in 6 weeks more or less. Not only do you learn a language but you come back with loads of ideas having experienced it from a learners point of view. 5. The schools have accommodation while youre doig the course too...Usually sharing a flat with a variety of Swedes, Danes, French etc...mostly of the female persuasion. For the girls theirs always the Spanish guys, who I found to be not as macho as their reputation leads us to believe. Ive done it and its probably the best experience Ive ever had in my life and doesnt cost the Earth. Drop me a line here or send me a message direct if youre interested in more info.....Cheers.... Back to top miqueJoined: 05 Oct 2005Posts: 36 Posted: Tue Apr 11, 2006 11:52 am Post subject: Prices Thought Id give you an idea of what this all costs: For example: 2 weeks in Malaga on the south coast - 365 Euros. This includes 20 hours of Spanish lessons per week and accommodation sharing a double room in a shared flat with other students. Same thing but in a single room costs 414 Euros. 4 weeks, same Spanish hours, double room in a flat costs 580 Euros!!! Get a cheap flight and it really doesnt cost a fortune.

The story of Red Riding Hood was among our favourites for most of us when we were still children. Now that we have grown to adulthood, there is still a bit of sentimental attachment to this story. This is what NetEnt hopes to exploit in the development of the Fairy Tale Legends: Red Riding Hood slot game.
About the Developer
Net entertainment has been existing since 1996 and is based in Sweden. NetEnt is the first developer to have created an online casino using the java platform. However, it has since moved on to more advanced platform like HTML5 and Flash technology. This developer has blessed the gaming world with a lot of games over the years. Of the various game genres, NetEnt seems to be particularly well grounded in developing slot games.
Mun gheama
Fairy Tale Legends is an online slot game with five reels and twenty paylines. This game is well designed and has a background tune that comprises of the cacophony that would be normally encountered when moving through the woods. As Red Riding Hood moves through the woods, you can hear the chirping of birds and the rustling of trees; all enhancing the effects of this game.
In Fairy Tale Legends the minimum amount that players can bet on a single spin is 0.2 while the maximum bet is 200. Whenever you feel like staking huge sums of money, there is a Max bet button beside the spin circle that can help you out in that regard.
Fairy Tale Legends offers two main ways of activating the bonus features. One of such ways is through the use of treasure chest icon. When this lands on the reels, you get three bonus options: Free Spins, Beware the Wolf and Coin Wins.
The Free Spin feature gives you ten free spins. You can retrigger the free spin if you land the treasure chest on the reels. One treasure chest gives you an extra two free spins. In the end, this results to a total of fifty free spins. Surely, fifty free spins are enough for you to get your lucky break.
With the Coin Wins feature, you are given a random payout sum. The Beware the Wolf feature involves you guiding Red Riding Hood through the woods to grandma's house. If you don't do this well enough, she could become the snack of the big bad Wolf.
Fairy Tale Legends is a very interesting game with a lot of bonus features. The combination of the bonus features and the beautiful design make the game one of a kind.

I noticed a few weeks ago that there would be no support for pre-i686 machines in Ubuntu 10.10, and to be honest, I had no reaction. And a short while ago, when bug reports started showing up on Launchpad about incompatibility with new i586 systems, I was likewise nonplussed. And even now that the issue is getting a little more attention, and a few possible solutions are being discussed, my level of interest is hovering somewhere between "meager" and "mild."
That might sound odd coming from a person who uses a true Pentium as the main system in the house, and relies on that 14-year-old computer to do everything (short of watching movies or writing to DVDs 🙄 ) every day.
But really, I've installed Ubuntu in earlier releases on the same machine, and the results are likewise "meager" or "mild." Ubuntu doesn't stand as a contender in my book when discussing alternatives for hardware from a dozen years ago. Even in its sparsest forms, the sheer chunk of Ubuntu x.xx discounts it from much of anything before a Pentium III, in my humble opinion.
So if the Ubuntu party train stonewalls the pre-i686 crowd, I really don't see any problem with that. It's rather like saying my VCR won't read DVDs. I wouldn't consider putting a DVD in my VCR anyway. It's not a very good idea.
Of course, there are some real repercussions to that choice, and one of them is the slew of low-power devices — not least of which is the OLPC — which are suddenly out in the cold if their owners want to run Ubuntu on them.
But then again, I owned an OLPC, and to be honest, I wouldn't put Ubuntu on that either (I did, with only lukewarm results). There were a lot of things to like about the OLPC, but my first choice in a distro for a little green machine would not be the purple, orange and black behemoth. I can't speak for every i586 device out there, but for some reason, the idea of Ubuntu 10.04 on an OLPC conjures an image of Jabba the Hutt riding a bicycle. … 😯
I'm one of those people that believes there are distros that are well suited to some hardware, and there are distros that are ill-suited to certain hardware. If you're running a new quad-core system with a full 12Gb of RAM and dual video cards then you might be able to boot Gnome Ubuntu 10.10 in under a minute.
But if you're running something slower than that, you might want to consider downscaling to something a little more sane. There are plenty of options for software to match your hardware, and I would suggest something that allows you to not only avoid the incredible bloat that comes with Ubuntu, but also allows you to take advantage of the power your machine has. It works for me. 😉

|Then-unknown actress Marilyn Monroe, 21, with Clifton Webb and Laurette Luez on the set of the 1948 comedy, Sitting Pretty.
Marilyn Monroe
A new book by Christopher Andersen, These Few Precious Days: The Final Year of Jack With Jackie, is grabbing headlines not because of it repeats all the hoary old claims of John F. Kennedy's extramarital affairs, but because it asserts that Marilyn Monroe actually phoned Jackie Kennedy in 1962 and told her that JFK was going to make her, Marilyn, his second wife. (To Jackie's credit, she reportedly replied: "Marilyn, you'll marry Jack, that's great … and you'll move into the White House and you'll assume the responsibilities of first lady, and I'll move out and you'll have all the problems.")
This sort of story — whether it has to do with Marilyn's alleged trysts with JFK and other powerful men, or her erratic behavior, insecurities, addictions, depressive episodes, you name it — this sort of story somehow both deepens our fascination with the ultimate movie icon, while also removing yet one more layer of luster from her legend. At this point, of course, nothing we learn of Marilyn's myriad weaknesses will stop us from paying attention whenever a tidbit of new information about her arises. In fact, as countless commentators have observed through the years, it's at least in part because of her weaknesses that Marilyn holds such sway over the popular imagination and looms so large in the pop-culture landscape.
In light of the claims Andersen makes in These Few Precious Days, LIFE.com took a long look back through the LIFE archives, searching for a sign of the Marilyn Monroe who existed well before superstardom — or even before plain old regular stardom — took hold and began dragging her down. What we found was a series of pictures that LIFE's Loomis Dean made a full 65 years ago, in 1948, when Marilyn was just 21 years old. None of Dean's photos from that day — at least, none of those he made of Marilyn — were ever published in LIFE.
So. Here she is, with another then-aspiring actress, Laurette Luez, and Hollywood veteran Clifton Webb on the set of a comedy called Sitting Pretty. Neither Marilyn nor Luez were in that movie. But Luez was under contract to Twentieth Century Fox — the studio that released Sitting Pretty — and Marilyn had once been under contract to Fox, and eventually would be again, so the presence of the two women on the set, whether as young actresses looking for pointers, or for publicity purposes — isn't all that surprising. In fact, as Marilyn and Laurette Luez change seats at one point (see slide #4), it's highly unlikely that these are purely impromptu shots of the trio.
(Incidentally, Webb was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for his role in the film — one of three Academy Award nods he earned in his long career.)
It's always jarring to see Marilyn as, in effect, an ingenue. She long ago transcended the movies, Hollywood, the entire entertainment industry, and like a very small handful of other performers, she effectively entered a realm — of myth, legend, whatever one wants to call it — so rarefied and solitary that it must have felt something like death even while she was alive.
But in early 1948, all of the pain, loneliness and desperation to come was still far, far away — dark clouds massing, invisibly, beyond the horizon — and Marilyn Monroe was just another talented, engaging young actress who hoped to be famous someday. The pity is that, in Hollywood, as elsewhere, the lesson is always the same and goes largely unlearned: be careful what you wish for.LIFE

Weekend Energy Preview 2-4
Here's what's in the mix this week. It's so fearsome yet vulnerable… like a tyrannosaurus rex trying to steal Pirate's Booty from a vending machine.
Kicks n Licks – Monsters (Original Mix) – I sampled this track and thought it'd be great for the next Halloween episode (yeah… thinking way ahead). But this low-key, "old-school" dubstep track ensnared me. It's not as filthy or boisterous as the Skrillex-inspired beats that have taken over. Instead, this true monster is creeping and slow, rife with heavy drops and a sickeningly sweet voice spewing out gibberish (probably decipherable) lyrics. Think of it not as the the latest violent bloodbath, but like Hitchcock's Psycho. It just gets under your skin and eats… slowly.
Check out the comments on this… So, so many.
Boys Get Hurt – Can't Wait (Original Mix) – See this week's "Discovery" below.
Shindu – All In My Fridge (Kreap's Cluster Funk Deathwish) – This would be a re-discovery for me. Their single Happy House was in the mix a long while back and then this best came out a couple weeks ago and I've been blasting it while cooking up some spicy foods in the kitchen (Thursdays are adventure cooking nights… made some awesome Chicken Tikka Masala). All in My Fridge is all about rocking out with great food The lyrics are brash and boisterous: "I grab my chopsticks for my favorite dish, Chinese, Japanese, it's all in my fridge." Kreap's Cluster Funk Deathwish remix is louder and more abrasive than the original mix, like eating a glob of wasabi slightly larger than you intended. I'm hungry now. Guess what, the official video came out today!
Solis & Sean Truby – Timeless feat. Anthya (Protoculture Remix) – I was on the market for some good trance. When I look for trance music, I need it to be very very good, because to me it all tends to sound the same. Armin Van Buuren is incredibly good at separating the good from the bad (so are Above & Beyond in their Anjunabeats series), so I found this track on A State of Trance Radio Top 20 – November 2011. I'd never heard of Solis & Sean Truby, but this song (the remix at least) is top notch. The beast are dark and rich, the fade in the middle is spooky and the synths that work the beat back in are unique and engaging. Anthya's vocals are standard fare for trance music, but they're used sparingly and effectively here. Getting trance music right is a science, and this song is like something on Einstein's chalkboard.
Boys Get Hurt
Can't Wait is probably my favorite new nu-disco track this year. It's a bass-driven stomper, no doubt, with with enough funky flavor to set the drapes on fire. Even a soulless automaton couldn't resist nodding along to this. This Japanese duo has barely any likes on Facebook, so follow them now before they get too famous. They listed their influences as Disco Texas, Russ Chimes, Justin Faust, and Gloves. This is excellent company, and it absolutely shows in their work… Very reminiscent of Love in Me by Moullinex and Russ Chimes' epic Midnight Club EP. Man… this is making me want to turn those up right now… Maybe in next week's mix. See more of Boys Get Hurt's music on Soundcloud. I love, LOVE Catch Your Heart. This is uplifting music at its best, folks.
Almost Made It
I had an awesome drum n bass remix of The Look by British band Metronomy by Camo & Krooked. I thought the mix was heavy enough with breaks by Simon Apex, Figure's remix of Gobstopper by XV and Wiz Khalifa, and the Kicks n Licks song. The original version of The Look might fare better on Beyond the Edge, but Camo & Krooked speed it up, with a super sweet dnb rhythm based on the keyboard riffs. Fred Falke's remix is more indie-dance, but equally awesome. I'll drop this a mix sooner or later.
Second Hour Rewind
The second hour rewind is the previous week's first hour. In this mix, hear Major Lazer, Le Castle Vania, Mord Fustang, dan le sac Vs Scroobius Pip, Gato Preto, Yelle, Strange Talk, The High Dolls, Popmuschi, Swiss Lips, and more! One of my favorite songs in the mix last week was the new release by Le Castle Vania called The Light. It just goes to prove this young producer from Atlanta can play with the very best. The Light is a pure dance track, with chopped up samples of something old sounding, mixed with a crisp and powerful blend of freshness. Check out his other songs Awake and Nobody Gets Out Alive, also his killer remix of Zero Machine by Smashing Pumpkins, Go Back by Grum, and In For the Kill by La Roux. Good stuff, all.

The Sacramento Police Department is seeking the community's help in solving the murder of Mrs. Line Withrow.
Seven years ago, April 28, 2006, at approximately 3:19 p.m., Mrs. Line Withrow was returning home after a day of shopping. Mrs. Line Withrow was a sixty-seven year-old, retired occupational therapist. According to her husband, she did not have a mean bone in her body.
On that day, Mrs. Withrow was walking down the sidewalk near the intersection of 37th and P Street, when a vehicle drove up next to her. Without provocation, the unknown, knife wielding assailant got out of his vehicle and ran up to Mrs. Withrow. The two began to struggle over her purse. The assailant stabbed Mrs. Withrow repeatedly with the knife. Mrs. Withrow was taken to a local hospital and died two days later from the injuries she sustained from the attack.
The Sacramento Police Department has exhausted all investigative leads and is calling upon the community to come forward with any information that may help in the arrest and conviction of the suspect in this case.
The robbery involving the death of Mrs. Withrow was believed to be connected to (3) additional robbery that occurred just prior to her murder.
Sacramento Homicide Detectives have contacted outside agencies, met with a Violent Crime Consultant and received authorization for a $50,000 California Governor's reward for information relating to the murder of Mrs. Withrow.
The Sacramento Police Department urges anyone with information pertaining to this crime to contact Crime Alert at (916) 443-HELP (4357) or text in a tip to 274637 (CRIMES). Enter SACTIP followed by the tip information. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward.
Line Withrow
Sacramento Police Media Relations · (916) 808-0808 · firstname.lastname@example.com
The Mission of the Sacramento Police Department is to work in partnership with the Community to
protect life and property, solve neighborhood problems, and enhance the quality of life in our City.

Each week, Wicked Local profiles the people behind the scenes at favorite eateries. This week, it's The Waterfield Kitchen, located in downtown Winchester center.
When The Waterfield Kitchen opened in Winchester center in 2015, residents cheered. And they are still cheering. The "rustic-chic" enclave has earned its place as a popular downtown destination. Whether enjoying a night out with the family, a romantic dinner, or an after-work gathering with friends, patrons are digging into the "New American" fare including sushi, burgers, pastas, seafood, locally-sourced produce , an extensive wine list, creative cocktails and a wide selection of beers.
We asked chef Andrew Tate a little about what goes on behind the plate at TWK.
What made you start cooking? My mother and grandmother are both great cooks. Great food will always bring people together and I learned a lot from both of them. Eating with friends and family has always made me happy and I believe that's why I choose this profession. That and it is all I have ever done for work. I started washing dishes at a local pizza joint when I was 14 years old. Then I graduated to making pizzas and the rest is history.
Who taught you the most about cooking? I went to Johnson & Wales for Culinary Arts and Food Service Entrepreneurship. That is where I learned the basics of cooking, however I learn something new every day.
How would you characterize the offerings at TWK? While making everything from scratch, my cooking style utilizes classic French techniques to create approachable food. However, the TWK menu is not just a reflection of my ideas; it's a culmination of the creativity and feedback of all of our staff. As a management team, we enjoy the creative process. Darren Levinsky, TWK's sous chef, and myself excel at completely different things. Our collaboration and Katie's feedback, makes for a well-rounded menu that appeals to a wide variety of palates. With a focus on seasonality and local ingredients, TWK's menu features contemporary cuisine and award-wining sushi.
Who is the customer you have in mind? We don't have a specific type of customer in mind, instead we strive to appeal to every type of customer. It is our mission to negate the challenge of debating where to eat when each person in a family is in the mood for something different. We want everyone to come to TWK and find something they love. TWK has excelled at achieving while, at the same time, developing an identity through our loved staples.
What is the most challenging dish to prepare? Seafood is most challenging to prepare. This is why it is my favorite thing to cook. There isn't any room for error when cooking seafood. It is either overcooked, undercooked or perfect.
What is your go-to ingredient right now? Very soon it will be locally sourced farm vegetables. We wait all year for the Farmer's Market. Collaborating with local farmers, is very important to our team.
Do you have a favorite dish on the menu? This is always the question the Chef is asked. I am the wrong person to ask. Chefs will always like the menus they produce. What is truly important is what the customer's favorite dish is. Generally this is the diver scallops with lemon and pea risotto.
Do you cook when you are at home? Home? TWK is my home. You can confirm this with my girlfriend. In all honesty I love TWK and so does our team. This is why we put so much effort and love in to it. This does translate to a lot of time, but when you love what you do it is worth it. For the record, I do cook at home and so does Darren.
Is there a recipe you can share with our readers? We work very hard on our recipes and I would be happy to share them with anyone. First you have to come to TWK and figure out what your favorite dish is!

Štorch's House (At the Stone Virgin Mary) - Old Town Square 16/552, Old Town
Old Town Square 16/552, Old Town
Neo-Gothic house built in 1896 on the site of a Gothic and Baroque house according to a plan by B. Ohmann for Štorch's publishing house; the appearance of the house was to fit as much as it could the architectural style of the whole Old Town Square and respect the whole urbanistic character of the place. Figural paintings in Art Nouveau style on the façade (dominated by St. Wenceslas on a horse) were made by L. Novák based on cartoons by M. Aleš. In 1945 the house burnt down, it was restored three years later.

Nikki Sixx + Fiancee Courtney Bingham Take Part in NOH8 Campaign
Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx and model Courtney Bingham are the latest to join the NOH8 Campaign, a charitable organization that was founded in the wake of California's passage of Proposition 8 that banned same-sex marriage. The NOH8 campaign seeks to "promote marriage, gender and human equality through education, advocacy, social media and visual protest."
The campaign has stuck in the minds of many due to the striking photo shoots of celebrities posing with duct tape over their mouths signifying the voices being silenced by Prop 8. Celebrity photographer Adam Bouska created the campaign and has been responsible for the shots, which frequently feature the celebs posing in white t-shirts with the "NOH8" logo painted somewhere on their person.
The portrait featuring Sixx and his fiancée, Bingham, comes with a quote that states, "Courtney and I believe in freedom of choice, no matter your sex. We believe you should be able to be yourself, love who you want and not be criticized for it. We believe in LOVE!"
Slash, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Mark Hoppus, Camp Freddy's Billy Morrison and more have also shot portraits for the NOH8 Campaign. For additional information on NOH8, click here.

When every crop has to be licensed from patent owners like Monsanto, only those practiced in the art of pirate agriculture will have reasonably-priced food. This gorgeous series of photographs from Mendocino's pot harvest might be a glimpse of that future.
Photographer Mathieu Young took these intimate pictures of a small pot farm at harvest time. We see the whole process, from the harvest in hidden greenhouses to the trimming, sorting, drying, and packaging for shipment. I keep imagining that they are growing lettuce and fruit to share with a small, underground collective of organic farmers who don't want to pay a licensing fee to farm. Or maybe I've just been reading too much Margaret Atwood.

Ichikawa Uno
Ichikawa Uno was a resident of Hagi in Japan's Yamaguchi Prefecture. She was already in her 60s when she responded to the first Brethren in Christ evangelistic effort in August of 1953. Her commitment both to missionaries Peter and Mary Willms and to the beginning church was unswerving. She was a quiet person, but joined enthusiastically in the second campaign in Hagi in July 1954, announcing the street meetings from the van's loudspeaker and sometimes singing in her quavering voice. She was one of the first three converts baptized in October 1954. Her quality of faith and dedication was recognized by the missionaries and by the church, which chose her as one of the leaders of the new group of believers. She cared for the tiny church when the missionaries were absent for language study and illness. She and her aging husband gave up their home to serve as caretakers of a building rented for church meetings, then without complaint moved into a tiny apartment when the church purchased a property two years later. Childless, the Ichikawas were taken by their nephew in 1975 to a retirement home in Tokyo where they lived into their 90s.

14 Easy Ways to Organize Small Stuff in the Kitchen
When it comes to kitchen organization, don't sweat the small stuff. We'll show you all the tips and tricks you'll need to get your kitchen back on track and clutter free.
Photo By: Toni Hammersley
Basket Case
Getting the kids ready for school and out the door is so much easier with an organized pantry full of grab-and-go snacks. Mix see-through, pull-out baskets of dinner sides, pasta and sauces, and save yourself some time and anxiety in the long run.
Store on the Door
To make the most of your pantry's space, utilize the inside of the door to store canned goods, spices, sodas and more. You won't believe how much extra storage you'll add when you take advantage of this often-forgotten area.
Sky's the Limit
When trying to find a place to fit all those pots and pans, don't forget to look up. Install a hanging rack, and keep these kitchen essentials out of the way but within easy reach.
Hanging Around
Are you running low on cabinet space? A slide-out coffee cup rack offers plenty of space for hanging your everyday mugs.
The Clear Choice
Stunning glass canisters lined along your shelf or in the pantry are aesthetically-pleasing storage containers that make it easy to know when you're running low on your basic essentials.
Stackable Solution
Double your cabinet space by adding under-the-shelf racks for plates, bowls or mugs. Not only will you be able to fit more dishes in the cabinet, but each dish will be easier to find.
Paper Trail
Paper towels are a kitchen staple, but they don't have to take up precious counter space. Fit a sleek paper towel holder to the inside of your cabinet door to give your paper towels a new, hidden home.
Your Search Is Over
Searching for the right lid for a pan can be a real time waster. Save time and stress by storing your lids in an upright pan rack that fits right into your drawer. Bonus? You'll never have to hear the loud clanging of lids again!
Divide and Conquer
Drawer dividers are one of the simplest ways to keep your kitchen organized. Separate flatware, spices and knives easily with a divider that keeps everything in its place.
Curtain Call
When organizing your kitchen, it's easy to forget the dark area below the sink. Stop tossing in the miscellaneous cleaning supplies, and give them a space that's all their own. By adding a small curtain rod below the sink, you will be able to hang your cleaning supply bottles while also opening up the bottom of the cabinet for other items.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Think outside the box, and save counter space (and money!) by mounting cool pie-filling cans to hold your cooking utensils.
Clean Up Your Act
Why have a drawer if you can't actually use it? Try adding hinges and a convenient tray to the false drawer beneath your sink for an extra place to hide cleaning essentials.
Take Out the Clutter
Don't waste a whole drawer on take-out menus and coupons. By attaching a couple of plastic sleeves to the inside of a cabinet drawer, you will have all the space you need, while taking up hardly any room.
Sugar and Spice
By keeping your spices stowed neatly in a drawer by the oven, they will always be on hand when and where you need them.

Tonight's super middleweight bout between Andre Ward and Edwin Rodriguez got weird when referee Jack Reiss called a lengthy time-out to lecture the boxers about how to behave themselves and "knock that shit off."
The fight was strange enough, given the WBA belt being taken off the table yesterday after Rodriguez failed to make weight. But fed up with the boxers' behavior coming out of their corners and their sniping during clinches, Reiss eventually had enough when he took a punch himself trying to separate the fighters. He sent both to their corners and assessed them each a two-point penalty; he repeated this several times, then stated his desire to have both fighters fined.
That's another strike against Rodriguez who's already paying a $200,000 fine for not making weight. But have you ever seen a referee freak out the way Reiss does here? [HBO]

In Slovakia, most of babies born last year were given these names: Samuel, Martin, Jakub, Patrik, Adam, Matej (male) Viktoria, Kristina, Natalia, Dominika, Sofia, Vanesa (female) While the male names are more or less Slovak-sounding, traditional names (except for Samuel), the girls are getting names which are nowadays popular in many countries. Surprisingly I didn't find the name Zuzana in this register (it seems like every 3rd girl of my age is called Zuzana:D) Well, so it goes, the fashion changes fast. I'm waiting for the time when my name will be among the favourite I know very few people who are called like me :/ so what about your country?

(but common names still exist around me) So,the occurrence that I can't pronounce the names will be increase in the near future, and I will name my child uniqe name too,if I have a baby.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Mike Yeo's three-year run in Minnesota has been anything but easy. The Wild coach has had to navigate key injuries to his roster, his own growing pains in his first NHL head coaching job and the considerable expectations brought forth when the team's owner spent nearly $200 million on two players two summers ago.
The Wild have improved under Yeo in each season, and Yeo has improved himself enough to earn the faith of the Wild leadership going forward.
Yeo signed a multi-year contract extension with the Wild on Saturday, the team announced. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the agreement was expected after Yeo guided the team out of the first round of the playoffs for just the second time in franchise history in the final year of his original deal. He has gone 104-82-26 in three seasons with the Wild.
"Mike has done a very good job the last three seasons as our head coach and we look forward to his leadership going forward," Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher said.
Yeo was an unproven coach with no NHL head coaching track record to go by when Fletcher picked him to take over for Todd Richards three seasons ago. The Wild faded after a strong start to Yeo's first season and never found a rhythm in his second year, an abbreviated 48-game schedule due to the lockout. The Wild did snap a five-season playoff drought in his second season, but were dominated by Chicago in a first-round defeat.
His status was tenuous at best by New Year's Eve last season, when the Wild lost their sixth straight game and Yeo felt compelled at the next practice to tell the players he wouldn't coach simply to save his job. But despite foot injuries that kept stars Zach Parise and Mikko Koivu and key defenseman Jared Spurgeon out for long stretches of the winter, Yeo helped hold the group together while the wins picked up. The Wild played all season with a carousel in the net, too, with four different goalies starting 10 games each or more.
"There were times where the wheels could've come off, and he kept it together," said defenseman Ryan Suter, one of several players to endorse Yeo after the season-ending loss to Chicago.
The Wild solidified his status in the playoffs with a seven-game victory over Colorado in the first round when the Avalanche led 2-0 and 3-2 in the series. They gave the Blackhawks a fight, too, until falling in six games.
The late-season surge, and Yeo's impressive strategic decisions both rounds of the playoffs, gave Fletcher the faith that he had the right man for the job.
"I am very excited to continue to coach the Minnesota Wild and pursue a Stanley Cup for the State of Hockey," Yeo said. "Our fan support has been amazing and it went to a new level during the playoffs this season. We are all motivated to reward them."

A Friend in Deed (ライバルとうじょう! Enter the Rival!) is the 80th episode of Pokémon: Indigo League.
Having a break, Ash and co. go to a restaurant and soon meet a kid named Ritchie, who proves himself reliable after getting them out of a stuck elevator. Due to Team Rocket's plan, Ash and Ritchie give them their Poké Balls. Though they chase them, Ash and Ritchie see they have a lot in common and can teach each other...
Episode plot
Misty and Brock are hungry, but Ash is happy as he knows the dinner is on him, being a challenger in the League. They meet up with Delia and Oak. Ash's mom tells Ash he will make his favourite meal, though Ash wonders where would she cook, but only tells them to leave it to her. In a restaurant, mom uses the kitchen and cooks everyone a meal, surprising the local chef. Though they are not very happy with her approach, they are nevertheless happy to eat such delicious food, complimenting her. Professor Oak asks Ash that if he wins the next battle, he would need to use six Pokémon and what would his choice be. Ash responds he needs to see before deciding. Oak tells him he will be always present to exchange Pokémon.
Oak tells Ash that he needs to do his best, as even if he loses, he needs to feel like a winner, though Delia tells that he has to try to win. They go inside an elevator and a kid yells to block the door. He goes inside and thanks Oak for blocking the door. He then sees Ash's Pikachu and asks whose is it. Ash tells Pikachu is his, while the kid goes to show affection. Ash warns him not to, but Pikachu likes his approach, so Ash calms down. The kid acknowledges Ash raised Pikachu well and Ash responds it was not easy to do so. Suddenly, the elevator stops and the lights turn off. Brock attempts to use the emergency button, but it does not work. Oak tells everyone they need to wait until the power is back. The kid rewires the wires and asks Ash to borrow his Pikachu. Ash agrees and the kid places the cables on Pikachu's cheek. Oak knows this is a good idea to try. Pikachu uses Thundershock, making the elevator move and soon everyone is out.
The heroes thank the kid. Ash asks for his name and soon is told the kid is Ritchie. Ritchie goes away and says goodbye. Oak remarks he is mature for his age, while Misty tells "unlike someone they know", though Brock notices how he handled Ash's Pikachu well. Suddenly, they hear someone telling to give Poké Balls to the pavilion for inspection. These people are Team Rocket, who are looking forward to stealing. Ash meets up with Ritchie and tells him something is weird about this. The trainers came to the pavilion and are told they need to toss their Poké Balls for inspection, otherwise they will be disqualified. Everyone tosses in the bag their Poké Balls and Jessie goes to take Ash's Pikachu. She places in the bag, despite being electrocuted by Pikachu. James tells Jessie they finally took Pikachu, so Ritchie and Ash know they are Team Rocket. James and Jessie know they are being discovered and remove their disguise. Weezing uses Smog, causing a major distraction, as Team Rocket go away in the van.
Ash runs to the van and notices Ritchie is following him for the same reason. They see Team Rocket going down the hill, so Ritchie proposes to jump in front of the van. Ash does not support this idea and runs downhill. Ritchie tells him to stop and jumps onto him, slowing him down. Ritchie tells him he would've fallen down the cliff if he was not stopped, so they climb down. Ash and Ritchie barricade Team Rocket's path, so they go down into a river. James fell unconscious by the rough terrain, so Jessie goes to take the wheel, while Ritchie and Ash follow the van. After some time, Ritchie tells Ash they need to sleep, as it is too dark. Ash admits he is right and set up a camp, as Ritchie has an extra sleeping bag. Ash apologizes to Ritchie for stubbornness, as he would have fallen down the cliff if Ritchie has not been there to stop him, though tells him his idea of jumping in front of the van was crazy too. They admit they are Pokémaniacs, loving all sorts of Pokémon, wanting to protect them. Ash is troubled, as he may not see his Pokémon again, but Ritchie responds they will find them together, tomorrow.
Team Rocket celebrates for the theft they made. Ash sees Ritchie is doing something. Ritchie tells if one connects the stars, he can get something. They see they can get an Onix and a Pikachu. Ritchie tells he wants to become the greatest Pokémon trainer. Ash responds he wants to be the greatest Pokémon Master of the world, though Ritchie thinks this is not possible, as he wants to be the Pokémon trainer of the galaxy. Ash simply responds he will be the Pokémon Master of the universe. Next day, they track and spot some tire tracks. Team Rocket are sleeping, so they sneak near them and enter the van. Ash opens the bag and his Pikachu comes out to hug him. Suddenly, Team Rocket catches them and locks them inside, then start the van and ride. Ritchie takes his Poké Balls (as his have the star emblem on them). Ash sends a Pokémon, but it is a Drowzee and returns it. Ash uses two more Poké Balls, but they are Magikarp and Slowbro, so he returns them.
Pikachu smells a Poké Ball and confirms it is Ash's. Ash uses it and sends Bulbasaur, who tackles a wall, but does not do any effect. Bulbasaur uses Razor Leaf, but still no effect. Ritchie tells Ash to allow him, as he sends Zippo, a Charmander. Zippo uses Slash and destroys the wall, alerting Team Rocket. Jessie tells James to handle it, but he responds he is driving, so Jessie sends Arbok. Pikachu goes to use Thunderbolt, but James turns the van, so Pikachu's attack is disrupted. Arbok tackles Pikachu, but Pikachu still stands. Jessie remarks James' driving, so James tells he should get a license. Ritchie sends Sparky, a Pikachu, surprising Ash and Team Rocket. Arbok goes to attack, though Sparky and Ash's Pikachu use Agility, confusing Arbok. Sparky and Ash's Pikachu use Thunderbolt, electrocuting Team Rocket and blasting them off. Ash celebrates, but Ritchie points they will fall down.
Ash sends Pidgeotto and Ritchie sends out Happy, his Butterfree. The Pokémon take them out of the van, which falls down. Ritchie sees they will fall down too fast, so Butterfree and Pidgeotto uses Whirlwind to make the landing softer. Ash and Ritchie think they saved each other with these ideas and soon a group of vans (inside are Ash's mom, Brock, Misty, Oak and Officer Jenny). Ash and Ritchie shake hands for this impressive teamwork. Inside the stadium, Ash fishes out a Magikarp. The receptionist tells him he will battle Ritchie. Everyone is surprised at this match-up. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are hanging from a tree, very depressed about their newest failure.
- The "Who's that Pokémon?" in this episode is Diglett.
- The episode name is a reference to idiom "A friend in deed is a friend indeed!".
- Like in the previous episode, Oak's eyebrows were discolored when he was saying how Ritchie's idea was a good one.
- When James declares to Weezing to use Smog, his glove was missing.

Did anyone hear ESPN Radio earlier today? A guy by the name of Joshua Macciello was on the Mason & Ireland show. Macciello wants to purchase the Dodgers and has big plans.
Please hear the interview by clicking here. When you're done, come back here.
I really enjoyed his enthusiasm. He seems to have passion and wants to win.
This is the problem, it sounds to good to be true. Who in the heck is Joshua Macciello? According to ESPN, he's a mining billionaire. He runs a company called "ARMITAL Entertainment". Click here for his website.
From ARMITAL -
The website is a quick rundown of the company but doesn't say much.
I search for "Joshua Macciello" on Forbes and CNN Money and I can't find anything. A bit odd to not find much if he's a billionaire.
I sent Joshua the following e-mail.
I heard you earlier today on ESPN Radio. Are you for real? Enjoyed the enthusiasm! Good luck sir!
By the way, I have a Dodgers blog. Check it out when you're not busy. Thank you.
Roberto Baly
He replied within ten minutes....
I thanked him for getting back to me and I wished him luck.
If this is some joke by ESPN then I have been fooled.
Read the comments of Mason & Ireland's Facebook fan page. Click here. Most readers think this is a joke by ESPN and believe there is no Joshua Macciello.
I would think ESPN wouldn't play like that but what do I know?
What do you think?
Update - Friday January 6. 10am
Joshua has sent me a follow up e-mail this morning. - - -
Thanks again and I look forward to talking lots more in the future... As the Dodger owner.
He also gave me his Twitter handle. Follow him at @joshmacciello
Read the comments below this post. Josh has left a few comments.
Many of you are having a hard time to believe if this is a real person. I actually find it hard to believe that the Mason & Ireland show would pull of a joke like this.
Stay tuned.....

LCP has a circular face plate and the same properties as LKP.LCP/LKP can be used for both supply and extract air. LCP/LKP is suitable for the horizontal supply of cooled air and has a large dynamic range.Installing an LCP/LKP diffuser in a plenum box type MB can help to achieve a stable airflow to the diffuser as well as realise the potential for individual adjustment.Damper type B is an unique linear cone damper which allows to use the full operational area (0-100%) and allows to balance with a high pressure drop over the box with low sound generation. Furthermore the construction of the damper gives an accurate and reliable measurement.Damper type C and E are with rotating blade dampers for respectively supply and extract. Typically used in applications that don't require a high balancing pressure in the plenum box .The LCP / LKP can with the plenum box MBBV be used in a Pascal system.LCP / LKP can be ordered with a presence sensor (-P), a temperature sensor (-T), or both. The sensors are built into the Faceplate.
