Found February 06, 2013 on The Nosebleeds:
PLAYERS: P.K. Subban, Rich Peverley, Tuukka Rask, Tyler Seguin, David Krejci, Milan Lucic
TEAMS: Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens
TEAMS: Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens
Bruins 2, Canadiens 1 The Bruins traveled north of the border into Montreal on Wednesday night to reignite the oldest rivalry in NHL history for the first time this season. Both teams headed into a nationally televised Rivalry Wednesday game streaking, with the Bruins 6-1-1 and the Canadiens 6-2 to start the season. The Habs came out flying and dominated the first period in their own building, holding the Bruins without a shot on net for nearly 12 minutes to start the game. On the other end, Montreal managed to rack up incredible scoring chances in abundance due to some sloppy defense from the B's, yet couldn't seem to put the puck in the back of the net to make Boston pay. Hint hint: This would continue for Montreal, and eventually come back to bite them in the ass. But P.K. Subban did finally manage to net one for the Canadiens, his first of the season, in his third game after signing a new contract. Subban fired a slap shot from the point at 9:07 in the second and a deflection off the stick of Rich Peverley helped the puck find it's way past the glove of Tuukka Rask. 1-0 Canadiens The Bruins offense managed to gather a little bit of life in the second period, but it wasn't until 14 seconds into the third when they found their first crooked number on the scoreboard. Tyler Seguin scored his first non-empty-net goal of the season after putting forth a strong defensive effort and receiving a great centering pass from new linemate David Krejci. 1-1 Just a minute and 51 seconds later, the new Seguin-Krejci-Milan Lucic first line connected once again for a silky smooth scoring play – this time David Krejci found the twine as a result of two great breakout passes from Seguin and then Lucic. Straight butter. 2-1 Bruins And while some defensive lapses allowed the Canadiens to continue to find scoring chances, they also continued to struggle capitalizing on those chances – whiffing on shots and completely missing the net when an opening presents itself. Though the numbers indicate he made an underwhelming 20 saves, Tuukka Rask was also brilliant in net for the B's, making up for the suspect defense in front of him and keeping the Bruins in the game…like he has a handful of times already this season. Make no mistake about it, the Bruins stole this one from the Canadiens. The B's certainly didn't play their best hockey of the season but fortunately for them, neither did the Habs. Sometimes in hockey, and especially in an intense rivalry like this one, it just comes down to whether or not you can weather the storm. 3 Stars 1. Tuukka Rask - 20 saves, .952 S% 2. Tyler Seguin - 1 G, 1 A, +2 3. P.K. Subban - 1 G, 0 +/-

The YoyoJam XLR8 (accelerate) yoyo is a new type of "hybrid" yoyo made of plastic and metal unlike anything they have made before.
Other YoyoJam hybrid yoyos have plastic in the center and metal rims, a patented YoyoJam specialty that has led to extremely popular yoyos like the Dark Magic II. But the XLR8 yoyo has a metal center with plastic rims, which creates a whole new and awesome yoyoing experience.
This one-of-a-kind hybrid creation plays differently than any other YoYoJam yo-yo you have ever thrown before, and we think you're going to like it. The XLR8 has a small aluminum body, paired with large celcon plastic rims. Celcon plastic has an extremely smooth feel, making grind tricks easy. The metal body of the XLR8 balances the yo-yo perfectly, giving the yo-yo a unique weight distribution and an amazing floaty and smooth feel during play.
The shape of the yoyo features low cut walls and rounded rims, which gives you just the right feel in the hand, and great stability that makes it great for horizontal types of string tricks. It also features a center dimple on the sides that act as lateral cap. That dimple allows you to more easily do "top-on" style tricks where they yoyo spins on your finger like a top, sideways.
The XLR8 (accelerate) yoyo comes stocked with YoYoJam�s Solid Spin Axle system, 10 Ball Speed Bearing, and silicone response to generate a smoother style.
As you can probably imagine with all of this talk about "grinds" and "top-on" tricks, the XLR8 is a non-responsive / unresponsive yoyo. This means that it doesn't wake up when it is sleeping and you tug on the string. You have to learn how to do a "bind" trick to make it come back to your hand.
If you don't know what a bind is, then this yoyo is not right for you. The XLR8 is designed for advanced yoyo players.
YoyoJam XLR8 Yoyo Specifications:
Weight: 71 grams
OD: 2.28" / 55.11 mm
Width: 1.59" / 40.40 mm
Silicone response
10 Ball Speed Bearing

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I am very happy with the quality of the card. It is a little difficult to get them in the envelope, but I will take it, as it is because of the heavy card stock the cards are on. I will hand that task off to my husband to do."
""Great print quality and paper stock. Lovely design with 3 photos and gold bands look great. Nice card to hold in hand. A little small though. 12.5x9cm folded feels little small. But its a lovely card for a small thank you note. Font and design is great.""
"This was just what we wanted. The font was moved around so it could be clearly seen, which was great. The photo turned out beautiful and the paper was good quality. This is the second card I have ordered, and once again it's been perfect. Thanks"
"These were the perfect thank you cards for our winery wedding!!! They came out adorable with a personalized photo of my husband and I walking through the fields. We have received so many compliments on them!!!"
"This product is crisp, clean, and classy! I plan to use them as thank you cards for my wedding showers. And if I have any left over cards I then will use them after marriage. It is a timeless card that can be utilized for any occasion."

A federal judge said Wednesday the state's demand that an African hair braider get a cosmetology license was unconstitutional since most of the training required is "irrelevant" to her home-based service.
In ruling in favor of Jestina Clayton, U.S. District Court Judge David Sam cited a 1915 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that held the right to work for a living in common, community-based occupations is the "very essence of the personal freedom and opportunity" protected by the U.S. Constitution.
"Utah has irrationally squeezed 'two professions into a single, identical mold' by treating hair braiders — who perform a very distinct set of services — as if they were cosmetologists," the judge said in his decision. "Most of the cosmetology curriculum is irrelevant to hair braiding. Even the relevant parts are at best, minimally relevant."
Paul Avelar, an attorney with the Institute for Justice in Virginia, represented Clayton in the case and in a statement called the decision a "major victory for economic liberty.… This is a great victory for Jestina and all entrepreneurs who simply wish to pursue their chosen occupation free of unreasonable government interference."
Clayton, a refugee from Sierra Leone who now lives in Centerville, began braiding hair in 2005 while attending Weber State University. Clayton said she was told by a state regulator she did not need a cosmetology license as long as she did not cut or use chemicals to style hair. But Clayton said that changed in 2009, when she was told to get a license. The state act that covers cosmetologists and barbers requires them to complete 2,000-hours of training, at a cost of as much as $18,000, and pass a test in order to get a license. Clayton protested the license requirement before the state's cosmetology board in 2010, but it ruled against her. When she failed to find a legislator willing to amend the act to except hair braiding, she contacted the Institute for Justice and it filed the civil lawsuit on her behalf.
Attorneys for the state Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing argued that regulations are designed to protect the public safety, health and welfare and also ensure that businesses are up-to-date on laws and best practices. In Clayton's case, classes that address sanitation, sterilization, skin and scalp diseases applied, the state said.
Sam said Clayton was not seeking deregulation of cosmetology, but only challenging whether the state's licensing scheme applies to African hair braiding. He noted it is "undisputed" that the Legislature never considered African hair braiding when it enacted the cosmetology act and there was no good reason to require Clayton to take up to 1,600 hours of classes that are "irrelevant" to hair braiding. The judge said hair braiding of any kind is mentioned only in 38 pages of the 1,700 pages of texts commonly used in Utah's cosmetology schools and prosecutors could not answer which, if any, schools teach the technique.
"The state admits that it cannot guarantee that the subjects it claims are relevant to African hair braiding will be given more than minimal time in any cosmetology/barber school, making even its estimate of 'relevant hours' speculative," the judge wrote in his decision, creating an "insufficient rational relationship" between safety concerns and the regulations as applied to Clayton.
Clayton issued a statement Thursday saying she was "grateful" for the outcome.
"It has been a long time that I've been fighting with Utah just so that I could braid hair," Clayton said. "I am looking forward to getting back to work and to my clients who have been so supportive of my fight."

Subject: RE: Points of Failure (was Re: National infrastructure asset)
Importance: High
I know it's difficult to refrain from comment, but let's try to remember
that the bad guys read this list too. While they may not have
the knowledge
of critical communication infrastructure points, they can
certainly find and
target them if we point them in the right direction.
This pertains not only to our side of the ponds, but to overseas as well.
We all know where the 'soft targets' of our infrastructures are located -
let's keep it to ourselves or, at the very least, within small private
discussion groups where everyone knows everyone and not on the
public list.
Why would security by obscurity work in this case?
Any terrorist with a quarter of a clue can find out the addresses of enough critical buildings to cause a huge disaster
in about 30 minutes (*hint* Find sites for providers that have hardware coloed in major buildings and that list the
addresses of these POPs. No names will be provided, but I have at least one in my mind. Repeat this process with some
major peering points, a listing of which is quite easy to find).
I might add that it's much easier to find this out than it is to crash some airplanes into prominent US buildings; I
doubt a 30 minute Google search would tell you how to pilot airplanes, but perhaps I'm just a little naive.

"Working with John is and always has been a pleasure," Evans said in a statement. "Our characters of Tina and Cord have always had an easy chemistry, and I am delighted that we will be able to bring them both to Llanview once again!"
Evans originated the role of Tina Lord in 1977. Soap fans know her today as Tawny on 'The Bold and the Beautiful.'
Loprieno has been playing Cord on and off since originating the role in 1986.
"Working with Andrea was one of the high points of my acting career," Loprieno said in a statement. "Her work ethic, wonderful talent and incredible sense of humor were always appreciated on the set and in rehearsal. When I think of all the times I had fun on the set or interacting with people backstage, Andrea figures prominently in those memories."
'One Life to Live' will leave ABC's airwaves in January. The show will join 'All My Children' online thanks to a new deal with Prospect Park and ABC.
Tell us: Are you happy Andrea Evans and John Loprieno are returning to 'One Life to Live'?

iirc Thrall is a plate wearing shaman. One thing that I think would be incessantly cool would be to give shamans another pet - ghostwolf. Thrall can spawn them, the WC3 shaman hero rode a wolf and with upgrades to the skill could summon 3 ghost wolves to fight at his time for a short period. I can see 3 being a bit much but how bout at least 1 and have it scale with level or gear or something. Maybe a spirit totem class to compensate for this and we could move sentry totem to that side and maybe make it useful like give it a 3 second AoE stun or something to those that come around it. maybe we'd actually use it for utility then

The master of big scores
Virender Sehwag has been dropped from India's squad for the final two Tests against the Aussies. Form and fitness have deserted Viru and he has ended up becoming a liability to the team over the last couple of years. In the immediate aftermath of the decision, Viru vowed to fight to get his place back in the line-up. However, considering his age and the tough competition for the spot, it seems extremely unlikely and Sehwag knows it better than anyone else.
When a player goes through such an agonizingly long lean patch, it is easy to forget what he has done for the team in the past. It seems like an eternity since we last witnessed a 'Sehwag special'. While the decision to drop him will only benefit the team at this point, let's not forget the magical moments Sehwag has encrypted in our memories.

WEDNESDAY, March 19, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Most women say they'd call 911 if they were experiencing a stroke, but many don't recognize the major warning signs of stroke, new research shows.
The study authors surveyed more than 1,200 women in the United States to assess their understanding of stroke's warning signs.
"We saw a high level of knowledge to call 911 when a stroke occurs," said study author Dr. Heidi Mochari-Greenberger, an associate research scientist of preventive cardiology at Columbia University Medical Center in New York City. Eighty-four percent of women know to dial for an ambulance if a stroke hits. But the good news stopped there, Mochari-Greenberger noted.
Only 51 percent of the women knew that sudden weakness or numbness on one side of the face, arms or legs is a warning sign of a stroke. Less than half (44 percent) knew that speech difficulty is a stroke sign. Fewer than one-quarter of the women could identify the following as other top stroke signs: sudden severe headache (23 percent), unexplained dizziness (20 percent), and sudden vision loss or vision loss in one eye (18 percent).
"The results suggest that efforts to improve stroke warning sign recognition among women has the potential to reduce treatment delays and improve outcomes in women," said Mochari-Greenberger.
And, noted Dr. Keith Siller, medical director of the NYU Langone Stroke Treatment Center in New York City, "What really compounds the story even worse is that minority women -- black and Hispanic women who have different risk factors, including [high blood pressure and cholesterol] management issues -- are among those not recognizing classic stroke signs."
Siller, who was not involved in the research, added, "This is a double whammy we have to address."
Twenty-five percent of Hispanic women did not know any stroke signs, compared to 18 percent for whites and 19 percent for black women, according to the study.
Are men better at spotting a stroke?
"The lack of recognition of classic stroke symptoms is not just limited to women," Siller said. "It's not gender-specific. Unfortunately, it's a major concern for both."
But he noted that women live longer than men do, so they are more affected by stroke. "There's no question more women have strokes. More women survive as they age, so that group is more apt to have more strokes," he said.
"Women are also less likely to take care of themselves because they often tend to take care of everyone else first," Siller explained. "They are often the support beams. They take care of kids, make sure their husbands are OK and they often don't include themselves as someone who needs looking after."
Stroke is the third leading cause of death among women in the United States, according to the American Heart Association.
Mochari-Greenberger said younger women should learn the warning signs, too. "Stroke might be on the rise among young women. Young women have the opportunity to prevent stroke among themselves and to recognize when other people are having one and know to call 911," she said.
The heart association issued new guidelines for women and stroke in February. Guidelines author Dr. Ileana Pina, a professor of medicine and epidemiology & population health at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City, said, "We still need a tremendous amount of research to better understand stroke in women. And the fact that the knowledge base is still lagging behind, particularly in the minority groups -- in Hispanics -- shows we need to do a better job on education."
Mochari-Greenberger and her colleagues were to present their findings Wednesday at an American Heart Association scientific sessions meeting, in San Francisco. The study is also being published online March 19 in the journal Stroke.

DETROIT (AP) - The Tigers have failed to offer Daniel Schlereth a 2013 contract, allowing the left-hander to become a free agent.
The 26-year-old had a 10.29 ERA in six games this year, then went on the disabled list April 21 because of left shoulder tendinitis. He made 11 rehabilitation appearances in the minors.
Schlereth was 4-2 with a 3.98 ERA in 73 games over three seasons for Detroit.

The Outnet
Words we never thought we'd write: Balmain dresses, jeans, and embellished skirts will be available for a mere fraction of their original prices -- and for the first time in the U.S. -- for one week starting online today.
The Outnet is hosting a week-long pop-up online with pieces like these two sequin cocktail dresses, a studded miniskirt, and yes, that pair of distressed skinny jeans everyone wanted, all up to 85 percent off retail. But be warned! You must register for the Outnet first, otherwise you won't be able to shop for the items -- hint: register now and you'll be alerted once the items go on sale.
This "pop-up sale" will be online for one week only, so shop early if you want to catch the best deals. We're fantasizing about wearing that mesh-and-embellishment dress to our office party as we type ...

Theme by Jesse P-S.
Text with 3 notes
Been away from Tumblr for a while, but we're back and Cash Test Dummies season 2 is in progress at The Brick Theater in Williamsburg Brooklyn. So far 15 teams have competed in round 1 action but this time around the voting scheme is different:
The audience votes after each team's performance from 0-5 (5 being best) on the following criteria: COMEDY: (how funny was the show? did you laugh a lot?) PERFORMANCE: (how well was the show executed? Did you buy into the reality being created on stage?) TEAMWORK: (was everybody on the same page? was there groupmind? was it confused?) and OVERALL PERFORMANCE: (technicals aside, how did you enjoy the show?).
So out of a possible 20, here are the standings so far:
Sandino - 18.05
Chet Watkins - 16.50
Old Maid - 16.11
Cascade - 15.6
Bear in a Hammock - 15.57
Mr. Gentleman - 15.40
Bear Project - 14.23
Out of The Woods - 14.02
Fat Penguin - 13.95
The Trinity - 13.91
(Secret Man Group) - 12.26
Dream Date - 10.96
The Garys - 10.90
Galileo - 7.58

First of all, a big thanks to all the performers and all those who came out to watch the show. We had another capacity crowd!
In the first standoff, 2 indy heavyweights competed in very fun shows. Player Piano
(suggestion: Tennis Racquet) explored a guy who got off vomitting on strippers, a parent-teacher conference for home-schooled children whose parents are also their teachers, and a 45-minute keg stand. They were followed by Casual Sex Offenders (suggestion: Castaway) who played a show about the ins and outs of being Survivor contestants, fishin' in wells for fish (& ladies), and whether or not the female characters on Lost had their menstral cycles affected by the island.
Winner: Casual Sex Offenders
In the second bout, 2 teams— each composed of 3 hilarious and gorgeous ladies— battled fiercly using improv as their weapon! Doppelganger (suggestion: Tasty Freeze) had a high energy show full of steroid-fueled cheerleaders, barrels of ribs, and a purgatory where 2 incarnations of the devil try to trick an unwitting newly dead girl.
Next, ELSIE JAY *improv girl smash* (suggestion: Condom) had a very funny show featuring Liz getting beaten with a parasol, a daughter who only seems to date men who cannot sleep with her (due to impotence, being gay etc.) and her father who only wants his daughter to score, and of course hilarity ensued in a scene about AIDS.
Winner: Doppelganger
In the final contest of the night, The Trinity (suggestion: Rwanda) had a school who accidentally donated charity money to Haishee instead of Haiti, visited Disneyland Rwanda, and found comedy in the child slave trade. Mr. Gentleman in their debut perfomance (suggestion: Fiji) performed a monoscene in which bumbling hotel co-managers push bottled water on a room of vacationers, one of which had terrible diabetes and the other was banging chicks in the ocean on surfboards.
Winner: The Trinity
Don't miss the next show's action on Wednesday Aug. 11 at the Brick Theater in Willamsburg, Brooklyn where the last of the 1st round groups will go:
B.F.F vs Nannertubes & (Secret Man Group) vs Supercrab ..
..and also the 1st quarterfinal which will likely be: Hello Laser vs. Casual Sex Offenders

House & Home Roundup: July 14, 2005
We have to admit to embarrassment in being totally sucked in by Mark Allen's lead article, I, Roomate, yesterday. With the demise of Gadgets, H & H gets the scoop on a very techy topic, but it is a beautifullly written piece which hits the nail on the head when Allen writes,
I came to understand that for all their purported helpfulness, home robots are largely about companionship.
We laughed out loud when the writer takes his robot, Nuvo, to bed and is woken up in the middle of the night when Nuvo activates out of the blue.
- Reviving His Works, On Paper and Plaster:
Faulkner was a home-bug too, spending much of his money on Rowan Oak, his Greek Revival in Mississippi. Good background and pics.
- Wild Things, Domesticated: Anne Raver takes us on a tour of the New England Wildflower Society in Whately, MA.
- When a Cool Dip Isn't Enough: In this Personal Shopper we get an odd assortment of pool accessories, including a beautitul outdoor shower from Rittenhouse.
- In This Neighborhood, Reality TV Falls Short:
This ABC's reality show, "Welcome to the Neighborhood" got cancelled, but the writer takes us to the community where it happened....Circle C Ranch, Texas.
- Test-Driving A Retirement Community (Yes, You Can):
Checking in for a short stay is now an option most communites offer. This is Rose Wegner's story. She is 95.
- I'm in the market for flooring that looks great and can withstand heavy traffic. What do you suggest?
Take off your shoes!! That obvious tip aside, there are a few good suggestions here.
- NOBU 57 is about to open - designed by David Rockwell
- Europebynet.com is a hot new furniture resource
- The Army is revamping their base housing big time in an effort to retain soldiers. These are some of the designs on the boards.
- "Connecting Through Clay: Karatsu Pottery" opens this weekend at Felissimo Design House
- the Giant Wooden Slide at Fairmount Park in Philadelphia reopened yesterday. It was buit in 1905.
2 Comments
I, Roomate had subway riders guffawing all under the city.
Anyone else notice the writer outing himself, when he had to explain to his boyfriend his sleeping arrangement with the bot? So wonderfully casual, we really are post-gay when things go like that in the NYT.
I was inspired by Faulkner writing particular books to renovate the manse . . .
Yes, but sadly, the paper will no doubt recieve more than one letter of complaint. Don't kid yourself about how post-anything we actually are.

SBA Offer In Compromise
How much should I expect to meet my OIC?
The answer to this question is complicated. Is determined by several factors, as described in I, caused
Background: When a borrower who obtained a bank loan guaranteed by the SBA is in default, the borrower more .. the other has the option of filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy (assuming the debtor has the right to ask. contribution) to protect. However, the SBA (and the Bank as administrator of the SBA), the possibility that the borrower is not an offer in compromise (OIC), rather than file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. The borrower must be aware that the OIC is a privilege and not a right, and the SBA has no obligation to accept any order, and only if the SBA will consider a good deal, and twist it no fraud, concealment or . How SBA notes that it is often difficult to understand and feels like black magic and a lot depends on the person who appears in the file. However, there are guidelines SBA SOP. According to the SBA SOP OIC
"The commitment must be proportional to the amount that could be recovered within a reasonable period of escape routes and should be sufficient to protect the integrity of the program, the SBA loan."
So what does this mean? In short, the service is acceptable revival of eight (8) sets out general criteria:
deficiency Size:
The size of the deficit is an obvious factor in determining the "Agreement." But even if one believes that the "look" a certain percentage of the SBA to accept 20% of SBA recovery, there is really no magic. This is due to the borrower if the amount of $ 150,000 or $ 1,500,000 in combination with other criteria is logical – that is, the borrower can really afford? What alternatives are there to the borrower?
The liquidation value of the debtor, the debtor protection under Chapter 7 bankruptcy (BK) must seek
This is an obvious alternative to ITO for the borrower. It is a calculation to do, and that is very important for the Bank and / or SBA. In cases where the borrower has a limited presentation BK effects of exposure, such as emergency SBA … but the borrower must be aware that, even if they are not responsible fully discharged for the presentation of BK and personal guarantee, SBA a significant and substantial amount of money from the OIC demands based on the value of the net assets and its ability to pay.
Assets if the borrower fails to protect BK.
Many debtors, that the idea of "free" when it comes SBA decree. There must be a mistake. Although the IRA and 401K "liberated" the examination of an application BK placed these assets in testing a decree SBA. Why? OIC is a privilege … Therefore, in many cases, SBA officials feel that the borrower will have to use their assets – including exemptions – show good faith to the ICO.
SBA must restore the seizure of more than five (5) years of lead
In addition, guarantee the purchasing power of the SBA. We recently spoke with a lawyer of great power, which was in violation of ~ $ 600,000. The SBA has requested $ 300,000 from him, although BK provided its comments under $ 30,000. Why? Earn $ 250,000 or more per year. They thought that if your wages garnished (they could do if you had no BK) is estimated at $ 300,000 over five years. The borrower has filed BK – in this case, the SBA has guessed wrong.
The borrower to avoid bankruptcy
This calculation is fuzzy, but I advise my clients that filing a BK has a "hidden" costs. Present in the business world becomes more complicated if the borrower files for BK, and these complications can cost real money in 10 years BK has reported on a credit report. I think the cost between $ 75,000 – $ 125,000. In other words, if the borrower to repay the principal of the OIC for less, then it is a good idea to solve. However, if the liquidation costs are higher, as in the case of the lawyer I mentioned above, see the borrower shelter BK.
Structure of the Offer
Many borrowers wonder whether structuring a payment plan for your OIC. The simple answer is yes, but … be ready this amount, the SBA must under a higher pension payments, if the borrower use a complete design package. The reason is simple: Many borrowers in default of the provisions of these plans. The SBA understands this, then there is not much money to be able to create the "risk" refers increase to reflect on a payment.
Other health factors, age and unusual circumstances
The ASB believes that the "other" factors such as age, health, etc. For example, if a borrower is 65 years old, the hidden cost of a large BK, since the value of a credit report is up to you, the most people are approaching retirement age. Also affect major health problems. Borrower in exchange for ACC ASB other factors that SBA as a sick child, a divorce or a sudden job loss can affect.
administrative expenses
It sounds trite, but the SBA and the bank in question are large and relatively inefficient administrative units. Therefore, efforts have been worked, and turn the wheel of progress and the treatment made a decree which in turn provides enough to arouse his curiosity. For a borrower without exposure BK, there are alternatives, and no lien on the property, this figure is relatively modest … perhaps as low as $ 10,000 – $ 15,000. If there is a lien on the property, the business, the bank has the funds for these privileges removed (attorney's fees) to the cost of an additional $ 10,000 or more to eliminate expenses.
Finally, the cost for the cancellation of the OIC try to determine if the borrower is a year of many factors and criteria. And there is a simple answer – each situation is different and unique.

RICHMOND, Va., March 27, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- The average cost of long
term care in nursing homes, assisted living facilities and in the home
increased over the past year, with assisted living and in-home costs rising
more sharply than nursing home care, according to Genworth Financial's annual
"Cost of Care" survey. And, in the face of rising costs for all categories of
long term care, Genworth found 65 percent of Americans surveyed in a new
national poll admit to having made no long term care plans for themselves or a
The average annual cost for a private one-bedroom unit in an assisted
living facility rose 7 percent from the 2005 survey, to $32,294, while the
combined average hourly rate for a home health aide for in-home long term care
spiked 13 percent to $25.32 per hour. The average annual cost for a private
room in a nursing home rose modestly by 2 percent over last year to $70,912.
Genworth's annual benchmark study surveyed more than 9,000 nursing homes,
assisted living facilities and home care providers for its annual
comprehensive view of long term care expenses. Additional national polling
about long term care by Public Opinion Strategies was conducted in February
and March among 600 Americans aged 40 and older. The Cost of Care study and a
summary of the national poll are posted on Genworth.com.
Alaska and New York remained the highest-cost regions for nursing home
care, while Louisiana, rural Missouri and Kansas were the lowest-cost regions.
Cost of care in urban regions is, on average, 17 percent greater than in non-
urban regions -- a 5 percent increase over last year's regional findings.
"As the first wave of America's 77 million baby boomers head into
retirement this year, it becomes more critical for Americans to seriously
evaluate how they will maintain their lifestyles as we live well into our
80's, 90's and beyond," said Buck Stinson, president of Genworth's long term
care insurance business. "It's good news that the typical steep gains in
nursing home costs have moderated this year. But the fact remains that most
American households remain unprotected from the costly health challenges that
come with greater longevity."
According to the national survey by Public Opinion Strategies, 65 percent
of Americans admit to having made no long term care plans for themselves or a
The poll also revealed most individuals recognized the need to prepare for
the cost of long term care, but were largely unprepared. Many Americans
surveyed also wrongly believed they had insurance protection, felt that their
savings would be adequate to cover long term care costs, and incorrectly
believed that Medicare would cover long term care costs.
Following are key findings from the Genworth "Cost of Care" survey, broken
out by major category.
-- Nursing Homes: The average annual national cost of a private room in a
nursing home is $70,912, or $194 per day, reflecting a 2 percent increase over
2005 rates of $190 a day. This remains the most costly care option.
-- Assisted Living: A private one-bedroom unit in an assisted living
facility has an average annual cost of $32,294 -- a 7 percent increase over
2005. Connecticut (Bridgeport area) has the highest annual cost at $57,566,
while North Dakota and Arkansas were lowest at about $21,000.
-- Home Care: The average hourly rate for home health aides across all
different provider types was $25.32, a 13 percent increase versus $22.43 a
year ago. For homemaker services, non-certified, licensed providers had hourly
rates averaging $17.73, versus $16.84 a year ago.
Genworth Financial commissioned CareScout to conduct its annual Cost of
Care survey. Research was conducted during January and February 2006. The
survey included feedback from more than 25,000 providers in order to complete
more than 9,000 surveys of nursing homes, assisted living facilities and home
care providers in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Some general searching gives me this 1st Test: England v South Africa at Birmingham, Jun 14-17, 1924 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo
That was the only ever time no one got double figures in the innings, but I reckon there have probably been shorter innings.

Minus The Bear
Your Rating:
Average Rating:
Hometown: Seattle, WA (USA)
Minus the Bear have always avoided easy classification, preferring to tread their own inimitable path defined by energy and invention. "OMNI," the Seattle-based band's fourth full-length recording and debut Dangerbird Records release, sees a stunning evolution to their sound and vision. As evinced by the album's all-encompassing title, Minus the Bear have merged their myriad influences into a sweeping collection marked by its slinky and sensual melding of city-stomping rock and deep funk grooves. That spirit of sonic lasciviousness is mirrored in the album's raw take on human sexuality - a theme as intricate and elaborate as the band's extraordinary music. Boldly experimental yet instantly accessible, "OMNI" is Minus the Bear's most provocative and potent work to date.

Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns spent years making "The National Parks: America's Best Idea," but since its debut on public television last year, he hasn't waited to start something new — or several somethings. Already on his list of films-in-the-works: documentaries about prohibition, the Dust Bowl, the Central Park jogger case, Vietnam, the Roosevelts (including Theodore, Franklin and Eleanor) and an update of "Baseball."
"This is pretty insane," he said. "I love my work too much. I feel like I have the best job in the country. It permits me to travel around and dive into the complexity without becoming like the screamers on cable."
Complexity and deep dives last, he said. Attendance at National Parks jumped after the films broadcast. People still come up to him almost daily to discuss his 1990 film about the Civil War and

There were dozens of guesses at this week's Access Point, and no, it's not an up-close shot of human skin. (The camera and lenses I dug out of AJC storage just aren't that powerful.) It is, though, a living creature inside the Georgia Aquarium's Tropical Diver exhibition — coral, an animal (not a plant!) related to sea anemones and jellies.
This one, in fact, is a leather coral, sarcophyton sp., that came to the Aquarium as a donation from a home hobbyist in North Carolina. Like all the other donated, purchased, shared or rescued coral there, it went through a quarantine period before it was planted inside the tank.
Atlanta's is the second-largest coral exhibit in the United States, and there's more to come. (Here's a detailed article about it from a few years ago in Reefkeeping Magazine.) This is an example of a barrier

For the first time tomorrow, Mei Lan, the Atlanta-born panda who recently moved to Chengdu, China, will be released from quarantine to greet the public in her new home.
Tai Shan, the National Zoo panda that Mei Lan plane-pooled with to China, left quarantine today.
Meanwhile, she has also been chosen as an ambassador for Earth Hour 2010, the one-hour window starting 8:30 p.m. March 27 when people and organizations worldwide turn out the lights. (Earth Hour is a program of the World Wildlife Fund, whose logo is a panda.) Lanterns will be lit March 10, too, on each of the seven continents as a countdown to lights-out. In Asia, the lantern launch will be at Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, Mei Lan's new home. Here's a Q&A the AJC recently did with Heather Roberts, the keeper who made the journey to China with Mei Lan.
As for the pandas still at Zoo Atlanta, Mei Lan's little brother, Xi Lan, has been weaned from his mama, and

A great look at the creative process in music from one of my favorite singers/songwriters/multi-instrumentalists, Matt Embree.
Matthew Embree, RX Bandits, Love You Moon
The RX Bandits sound fuses elements of rock, reggae, ska, and jazz. Their multi-dimensional approach should come as no surprise, though, once you understand the creative process of songwriter Matt Embree. He writes all the time, and not just songs: Embree is an avid poet. And like any good poet, he finds inspiration everywhere. He doesn't necessarily seek out inspiration, but he puts himself in situations where it comes easily: he's gone on a 2,000 mile motorcycle ride, and he's hitchhiked all throughout Central America. When you engage with your environment as much as Embree does - whether it's the physical environment of the wilderness or the people in a small village in Costa Rica - inspiration is easy to come by. And the songs that are the product of that creative process are rich in their influences.
RX Bandits are now on their farewell summer tour, though according to band member Steve Choi, they aren't breaking up. Rather, they are just doing their last tour. So have no fear, RX Bandits fans, they will not disappear. Read my interview with Matt Embree after the video.
Made this for my wife. Description on deviantART:
For my wife.
This is our cat Abby. She absolutely loves this weird rubber ball we got her. Nine times out of ten, if we can't find it anywhere, it's under the couch. When we fish the ball out from under there, Abby FLIPS out in excitement. Seriously, I've never seen a cat do this. It's like when a dog starts barking in excitement when you are going to take it for a walk, except replace those barks with meows, and you've got Abby. On top of that, she actually plays fetch with the thing. You throw it, and she brings it right back and drops it by your feet. This further proves our theory that Abby is actually a dog in disguise.

I just thought I would talk a bit about how I solved an annoying problem with my DSI: Miami widget since I had a really hard time finding a solution online. The problem would show up every time the home screen would change orientations (from portrait to landscape and vice versa). If there was an orientation change, the widget would freeze and the button/text box wouldn't respond anymore. This drove me nuts! I finally solve the stupid problem today. This is what was happening:
-I have an IntentService class called UpdateService which basically throws a PendingIntent out there to listen for the button press. Here's the code that is in it's buildUpdate method:
private RemoteViews buildUpdate(Context context) {
RemoteViews updateViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget_message);
Intent i = new Intent(this, DSIMiamiWidget.class);
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, i, 0);
updateViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.WidgetButton, pi);
return (updateViews);
-This code was fine, actually. It worked great when the home screen stayed in the orientation in which the widget was born.
-The problem was when the button was pressed, it called a changeText() method which updated the text box, requiring me to do a new RemoteViews update. Here's the gist of the code:
public void changeText(Context context)
RemoteViews updateViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget_message);
// int textSize;
if (!randomQuotes.isEmpty())
updateViews.setTextViewText(R.id.WidgetTextView, randomQuotes.get(0));
if (quotes == null)
this.quotes = context.getResources().getStringArray(R.array.quotes);
updateViews.setTextViewText(R.id.WidgetTextView, randomQuotes.get(0));
ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName(context, DSIMiamiWidget.class);
AppWidgetManager manager = AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context);
manager.updateAppWidget(thisWidget, updateViews);
-Well, I didn't realize that I had to REDO all the PendingIntent stuff after doing that, too. So, I threw this in right before "ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName…" at the bottom:
Intent i = new Intent(context, this.getClass());
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, i, 0);
updateViews.setOnClickPendingIntent(R.id.WidgetButton, pi);
TADAAAAAAAAAA. That was a pain…
So I'm working on a game engine for Android right now. It's gonna use OpenGL ES and hopefully it'll be super sweet sauce (awesome alliteration there). In the end I hope to have the typical sprites/parallax scrolling backgrounds/physics, along with particle effects and some extra doodads.
I'll try to keep this blog updated in the process.
I guess this'll be my new home for a while. Nice and shiny.

I went in filled out an application on the kiosk and spoke to the manager. Since it was Friday, he asked me to come into the store on Monday morning for an interview. On Monday, we spoke for about an hour. We talked about Publix's company culture, and he asked several standard interview questions. The interview was not difficult at all, and was a good interview process for this type of position. He wanted to know why I wanted to work at Publix, and if I'd had previous experience. My interviewer was a longtime employee there, and he was very knowledgeable about the company's history, their expansions throughout the Southeast, and their policies and procedures. He was friendly and we talked about colleges, and sports. I was offered a part-time job in the interview, and I accepted.

I'm on Whole30 day five!! Yeah! Only 25 more days. Ha not that I am counting down or anything. So yesterday I went a little crazy in the kitchen. I made Primal Palate gut healing gummies, Balanced Bites gummies, Elana's Pantry apricot energy bars, Multiply Delicious fruity granola bars, all-natural deodorant, a dry face stick and started fermenting my own kombucha. I don't know what got into me but I was on a roll. I've been wanting to make half of these things for weeks but kept putting it off. I left out all the honey to make sure everything was Whole30 ok! I'll be sharing my swaps later this week.
Things I've learned from Whole30 so far. I overdid it on the bacon. Yes I believe there is such a thing as too much bacon. This might stem from the fact I ate more bacon in three days than I ate in the last 5 years. Frightening. Next, using your dinner leftovers as breakfast is awesome! Steak and eggs. Spaghetti squash frittata. The possibilities are endless. If you aren't already, you can follow my journey via instagram. I might actually post a picture of myself. Some of my friends think it is funny I only post food pictures and rarely any of me. Anyways I cook pretty much all my meals already, but I'd love some ideas for Whole30 restaurants or restaurants with easy swaps. Suggestions? Ideas?
3 pound grass-fed rump or chuck roast
2 tbls ghee
2 whole sweet onions
6 whole carrots
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 cup organic red wine* sub beef broth for Whole30
2 cups organic beef broth or homemade
3 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
salt and pepper, to taste
Heat oven to 275 degrees. Salt and pepper you roast. Peel onions and sweet potatoes. Halve onions, quarter sweet potatoes and cut carrots into 2-inch pieces. If your sweet potatoes are big, you will want to cut them into smaller pieces. Melt 2 tablespoons ghee in a large pot oven medium-high heat. Add halved onion to pot and brown. Flip and brown on the other side. Remove to plate. Add meat to pan and sear on each side for about a minute or two. You want it to reach a nice brown color. Remove roast to plate. Now pour in wine or beef broth to deglaze the pan. Use a whisk to scrape all the flavor bits off the bottom of the pot. Place the roast, onion, carrots and sweet potatoes into the pot. Add beef broth until meat is halfway covered. Then add the thyme and rosemary. Place in over for 3 hours. Serves 6.

Calendar of Events
Premier computer scientists have evaluated both precinct-based and internet electronic voting methods. Their scientific assessments identified seriously flawed software and revealed the ease of tampering (even by hackers with little expertise), but those findings have had little effect on the technology in use. States that produced 170 electoral votes in 2008 made exclusive or widespread use of the voting equipment that has received most criticism and is easiest to manipulate in ways that may be undetectable. Substantial portions of the U.S. Senate and House are elected from those jurisdictions. In recent years, states that planned to purchase more secure voting devices postponed the change because of fiscal pressures.
This Program seeks to bridge the understandings of security, risk, and public values between computer scientists and legal academics, and to facilitate new scholarship by law professors that will address persistent regulatory and legal issues. Three panels will explore distinct sets of issues.

Upto 20 x 30 from a D700? If you were to plan an exhibition with images which youve not captured yet and you were writing the proposal for fundraising and marketing; assuming that you were able to find a gallery with the space, what size would you choose for the photographs?
Im thinking of using aluminium (or acrylic?) based prints to help reduce costs i.e. no framing, perhaps 25 prints supported by a book.
Ive been considering the size of prints (assuming funds are available) upto 20 x 30, but Ive also been trying to consider other sizes, such as 20 x 16 and the various sizes between the two. Which size would you choose? How would you print them?
Examples of previous work available at www.timothyaikman.com and the work concerned will be taken in Uganda.
Quote: Up to 20 x 30 from a D700?
12 MP does not have enough fine detail recording ability for a 20x30 viewed close up to look first class. 20x16 costa a lot less to print.
Of course it does. I've got a 24 by 36 canvas in my lounge that people walk inches past coming into the room, printed from aD80. No one's ever said anything about the resolution.
Most people recognise that you stand back a bit to view a large image anyway, and won't scrutinise that closely. In fact, the only time I can ever remember hearing a complaint of that nature was when some fool thought he could earn a name for himself by printing wall-filling (ten by thirty FEET!) digital prints and thinking they could hold up against the Ansel Adams prints he displayed them with in the same traveling exhibition. Mental.
We used to produce 30x24 prints from 6MP Kodak DCS760 files and even the occasional 40 inch wall portrait. Nobody ever complained about the sharpness but our working practices had been carefully honed.
There are so many factors other than Megapixels that destroy the crispness of pictures and camera-shake must be top of the list. Many snappers don't even know how to hold a camera properly. A recent documentary about McCullin showed him out taking landscape pictures and he adopted the correct stance for each and every exposure.
Just think of the number of reports complaining that the D800 makes their photography worse.
Speak to the lab you want to use for the 20x30 prints, they will guide you and most probably do the scaling for you alot better than you can do at home and the prints will look perfectly fine.
If you are thinking about a gallery for the exhibition I would talk to them about print size. They will know what their customers like to buy, also if they want framed prints or horrid canvases! If I am printing "large" I normally do a 76cm on the long side, which I think is about 30 inches isn't it? I do this from a D700. The quality of the lab makes a big difference.
I've done 20x30's from the D700 no problem. Usually digital c-type from the Printspace, which are very good. And more recently from the (16mp) Fuji x100s, no shortage of fine detail there either.
I love it too, in fact it's replaced both my D700 and Mamiya 7, which I no longer have. Not without its faults, but that's true of all cameras. Print, and print big; you'll love it even more...
On print sizes, in my opinion those who challenge my statement "12 MP does not have enough fine detail recording ability for a 20x30 viewed close up to look first class" may set themselves low standards.
Assuming a perfect lens exists the eye can resolve more detail at 12-15 inches viewing distance than there are pixels on a 12 MP sensor.
As lenses are not perfect, particularly wide open in the corners, sensor resolution goes down as ISO goes up and as anybody who has compared 20x30 inch prints made with good technique there are quality improvements going from 12, 18, 24, 36 to 60 MP sensors when viewing at 12-15 inches.
There is also improving tonal separation with increasing MP.
12 MP, not cropped, low ISO, good technique is at the limit of best photographic quality by A3+ print size. I did not say you cannot make a bigger print from 12 MP. What seems indisputable to me is 20x30 inch prints made to a similar standard from a higher MP camera have more detail and tonal range when viewed close.
As the end purpose is a gallery exhibition visitors are likely to expect the highest possible quality for the print size displayed.
Quote: who challenge my statement "12 MP does not have enough fine detail recording ability for a 20x30 viewed close up to look first class" may set themselves low standards.
Oh, that's it. I have low standards. bugger it, well at least I know where I've been going wrong. Hey-ho, doesn't really matter as everyone who buys my prints must also have low standards. That of course means the profit is higher as I haven't had to waste money on a D800.
Quote: Assuming a perfect lens exists the eye can resolve more detail at 12-15 inches viewing distance than there are pixels on a 12 MP sensor
I guess it all depends on the end use of the image?
If you are producing images for gallery viewing there are recommendations on the correct viewing distance based on print size this is one such. For a 20"x30" image the recommended distance would be around 60" which rather negates the "12-15" comment
However, if one is producing images specifically to be viewed at 12"-15" distance Len is quite right (none of my customers have ever wanted my images for this purpose though and back in the days when I was using a 6mp Cannon I sold plenty of 30" x 20" prints and never had one returned because they could see the pixels )
Fitness for purpose would be my determining factor in deciding how large to print.
Quote: What seems indisputable to me is 20x30 inch prints made to a similar standard from a higher MP camera have more detail and tonal range when viewed close.
can't be disagreed with (in my view) but the relevance may be open to debate in the context of this thread?
Once again we are seeing a wee bit of confusion between pixels in a digital file and inkjet dots on a print.
In my experience (purely as an amateur, I hasten to say) the only way to test whether your pictures are sufficiently detailed to provide a good quality print of a certain size is to try it. There are many more factors in that equation than the megapixelage of the camera sensor.
But, back in the days when I was using 12Mp D300 or D3s cameras, I could certainly get an exhibition-quality A3+ print from a cropped quarter of a frame (3Mp) - provided that it was a good, well-exposed, sharply focussed (where it was meant to be sharply focussed) image to start with and that it had not been degraded by excessive processing or printed on sub-standard paper with sub-standard inks. But, even then, the only way was to try it - some would work better than others.
Wow. Lucky no-one ever tried printing anything big before we had 24MP cameras then, huh?
Incidentally, this is the first time in my life I've been accused of having low standards. Thanks for that.
