PISCATAWAY, NJ – The Rutgers men's soccer team has unveiled its schedule for the 2004 fall season. In all, Rutgers will play 11 of its 18-match regular season schedule at the friendly confines of Yurcak Field.
The Scarlet Knights will once again test themselves against the toughest competition around the country, highlighted by six NCAA Tournament participants from last season. In all, Rutgers will face four opponents which finished ranked among the top-25, including three in the top-10, of the 2003 final National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) poll. Unlike last year's road-dominated schedule, the Scarlet Knights will play 11 matches at home in 2004, including its opening two matches of the regular season. As accustomed, Rutgers will play nearly all its home games in the evening, with nine contests under the bright lights of Yurcak Field. RU will play a total of 14 night games in 2004.
"We are very excited for the upcoming season," said Rutgers men's soccer head coach Bob Reasso. "I am thrilled to have 11 home games this year; it will be great for our fans. We are hosting a lot of very competitive teams at Yurcak Field this season and it should make for some very exciting matches."
RU will begin its quest for its 13th NCAA Tournament berth under Reasso, who enters his 24th season at the helm of the program, with a Friday evening home contest against BIG EAST foe Pittsburgh on Sept. 3. Five days later, Monmouth (9/8) comes to Piscataway for a Wednesday evening matchup.
The regular season's second weekend will prove to be a pivotal one for Rutgers, with a trip to Norfolk, VA, to participate in the Old Dominion Tournament. Rutgers will open competition against William & Mary (9/10), a team it opened the 2003 season with a thrilling come-from-behind overtime victory against. The Scarlet Knights will close out the weekend tournament against the host Monarchs, who, like Rutgers, advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 2003.
The Scarlet Knights return home where they will play five of their next six games at Yurcak Field, highlighted by the 19th annual Philips/adidas Rutgers Classic. Considered one of the premiere in-season tournaments around the country, the 2004 version includes stiff competition for RU in the College of Charleston (10/1) and Hartwick. (10/3). Prior to the tournament, Rutgers will host Atlantic-10 power Temple (9/15) and BIG EAST foe Providence (9/19). A road contest with Villanova (9/22) precludes what many consider to be one of the biggest non-conference opponents to come to Yurcak Field in this fall. The University of Michigan (9/24), out of the Big Ten Conference, travels to Piscataway for a Friday evening match to round out the Scarlet Knights' September slate. The Wolverines, who finished ranked seventh in the 2003 final NSCAA poll, advanced to the quarterfinals of the 2003 NCAA Tournament.
What has evolved into one of the fiercest rivalries in all of collegiate soccer will add a new chapter to its storied tradition on Oct. 6 as Rutgers and St. John's meet in Jamaica, NY. The last time the two schools met was in the BIG EAST Tournament semifinals when the Red Storm captured a thrilling victory with a 4-3 advantage on penalty kicks to advance past the Scarlet Knights. St. John's went on to finish as the runner-up in the 2003 NCAA College Cup.
A pair of home BIG EAST matches with Boston College (10/9) and Georgetown (10/13) follow, leading into a tough Saturday night contest with 2003 NCAA Tournament participant Connecticut (10/16) in Storrs, CT. A trip to Syracuse (10/20) to face the Orange rounds out the two-match road swing.
Rutgers winds down its regular-season slate with a pair of home games, culminating with a trip to West Virginia on Oct. 30. The Scarlet Knights will first play an always-exciting Saturday night match at Yurcak Field with Notre Dame (10/23), who the Scarlet Knights defeated 5-2 on the road last season. ND is the sixth opponent on RU's 2004 schedule to receive a berth in the 2003 NCAA Tournament, ending the year eighth in the national polls. Patriot League foe Lehigh (10/27) comes to Piscataway for the Scarlet Knights' home finale, prior to RU's regular-season finale with the Mountaineers.
Rutgers, which has made the eight-team post season BIG EAST Championship every season since joining the league in 1995, will serve as the host of the 2004 BIG EAST Championship with the semifinal and final rounds scheduled for Nov. 12 and Nov. 14 at Yurcak Field in Piscataway, NJ.
The Scarlet Knights will tune up for the season with exhibition matches against Seton Hall and Ohio State. Seton Hall is one of two teams Rutgers will not face in its 12-match regular-season BIG EAST schedule. The Scarlet Knights and the Pirates will meet on Wednesday, Aug. 25 at Yurcak Field. Rutgers will travel to Columbus, OH, to face Ohio State in a College Cup Preview match at Columbus' Crew Stadium on Friday, Aug. 27.
Rutgers posted an 11-7-4 record in 2003, advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. RU finished fourth in the BIG EAST regular season standings, reaching the semifinals of the conference tournament. The Scarlet Knights ended their season with a loss at No. 21 Akron, 3-2, on Nov. 26, in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

World Renowned Cyclist Challenge Starts In Santa Clarita
AdventureCORPS, Inc hosts 26th Anniversary of the Furnace Creek 508 Bicycle Race
On Saturday, approximately 220 bicyclists from across the USA, Canada, Asia, and Europe, will compete in The Furnace Creek 508 Race.
As one of the world's toughest open bicycle races, competitors will cycle along a 509.58 mile-long route which runs from Santa Clarita to the Mojave Desert to Death Valley and finally to Twenty Nine Palms.
"When I did it the first time, it literally changed my life," stated Ralph Jacobson, third time participant. "You haven't lived until you have sat on a bike saddle for 42 hours straight and gone through Death Valley in the middle of the night."
Beginning at 7 a.m., individual participants have 48 hours to complete this endurance challenge, while relay teams have 46 hours to finish.
"Its one hundred percent of a mental challenge as opposed to what you would think would be the physical challenge," explained Jacobson. "Sure it gets warm in the dessert, sure you're climbing over 10 mountain ranges, but the biggest challenge is believing you can do it."
Filled with professional and hobby bicyclists, the record time for the Furnace Creek 508 is a little over 27 hours.
Spectators can watch the competitors take off on Saturday morning at the Hilton Garden Inn of Santa Clarita.

There's a potential new weapon in the battle against breast cancer.
Researchers say super-cold gas can kill tumors, and make sure they never return. The way it works is, doctors inject through a needle the super-cold gas into a patient around the tumor. A so-called "ice ball" forms around the cancer, and kills it. It's a non-invasive procedure, and doesn't cause any major discomfort.
The technique is known as cryotherapy. The trial was carried out on 13 patients who had all refused to have breast operations to remove their tumours. They remained cancer-free up to five years later when doctors saw no sign of the disease returning and noted no significant complications.
Dr Peter Littrup, interventional radiologist at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit, who led the study, said the findings suggested freezing tumours was both safe and effective.
"Minimally invasive cryotherapy opens the door for a potential new treatment for breast cancer and needs to be further tested," he said. "When used for local control and - or - potential cure of breast cancer, it provided safe and effective breast conservation." Although cryotherapy has been used by surgeons for years to treat disease, it always used to require a major operation.
But the invention of tiny needles has allowed radiologists to start using the process. Studies have already shown that it can help kill off prostate tumours, although it is still not recommended for widespread NHS use.

The Free Press of Mankato, Jan. 22
NSA reform falls short
The Obama administration task force that reviewed the unbridled surveillance activities of the National Security Agency recommended new policies that may make us feel a little better about how much the government is watching us, but overshadow a larger issue: the presumption the government would never abuse the information it collects.
Unfortunately, history suggests otherwise.
Few remember an operation called COINTELPRO, a domestic intelligence program operated by the FBI of J. Edgar Hoover from 1956 to 1971. The purpose of the Counter Intelligence Program was to root out alleged communists in America, through surveillance and indeed infiltration of domestic groups that included Vietnam protesters, church groups and peace activists like Martin Luther King Jr.
Eventually, the Senate authorized a committee led by Sen. Frank Church of Idaho to investigate the program.
The committee's conclusions were damning. "Our investigation has established that the targets of intelligence activity have ranged far beyond persons who could properly be characterized as enemies of freedom and have extended to a wide array of citizens engaging in lawful activity."
Some would say the modern-day IRS probe of Tea Party-related groups for auditing was no different than COINTELPRO.
So while the surveillance task force recommended needed changes such as the halting of massive and all-encompassing data collection on all Americans' phone records, and a more focused collection, the change only has impact if we can trust those in charge of it to obey the rules.
And while Obama has said he has authorized by executive order a kind of whistle-blower protection that would allow intelligence workers to raise issues with the collection and use of data, we suspect very few people in this line of work have incentives to be whistle-blowers, given the recent experience of Edward Snowden.
There is no doubt that we have to balance the need to gather information to stop terrorists against the need for our citizens' rights to privacy — to be left alone.
But the issue goes beyond that. Information is power, and too much power of information in the hands of the government could strike at democratic institutions themselves and our democracy as a whole, as history has shown.
St. Cloud Times, Jan. 18
Legislature, legalize pot for medicine
Marijuana is in the news a lot lately, thanks largely to Colorado's recent legalization of its recreational use. Minnesotans, though, are about to face (again) a much different debate on the controversial-but-common drug.
Should it be legalized for medical use?
This board's answer is yes as long as the approach includes strict regulatory measures, tight controls on dispensaries, and follow-up studies to make sure medical marijuana is not fulfilling fears from law enforcement about it exacerbating illicit drug use.
The 2014 Legislature is likely to take up the matter after it convenes Feb. 25. Considering legislators have examined the issue for almost a decade and that medical marijuana is legal in at least 20 other states, Minnesota's debate should really just focus on those issues.
According to the Marijuana Policy Project, the basics of the House and Senate bills left from 2013 are:
. Only seriously ill patients could use or obtain marijuana, although if they lived more than 15 miles from a dispensary, they could grow it.
. The state Department of Health would issue medical marijuana ID cards so law enforcement could easily verify that a patient is allowed to use medical marijuana.
. ID cards would be issued to a patient with a qualifying condition, who would have to submit a physician's written certification that the potential benefits likely outweigh the health risks for the patient.
. Qualifying conditions are: cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis C, Lou Gehrig's disease, Tourette's, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, PTSD, and conditions causing severe, debilitating pain, severe nausea, wasting syndrome, seizures, or severe and persistent muscle spasms.
. The health department would set up strict regulations for nonprofit medical marijuana dispensaries and labs. The number per county would be based on population.
Law enforcement has long objected medical marijuana, claiming that it will make marijuana an even bigger problem as well as increase use of other illegal drugs, especially among young people.
However, proponents have studied those issues in 18 states where medical marijuana is legal and they say their data contradicts those claims, noting that well-regulated medical dispensaries are critical and youth marijuana use has not increased.
Gov. Mark Dayton has urged both sides of the issue to work through their differences and craft legislation he can sign. That's a reasonable approach that both sides should embrace, remembering this about medical marijuana and nothing more.
Fergus Falls Journal, Jan. 20
Sunday liquor law fine as is
Make no mistake, it would be beneficial to consumers if the Legislature passed a bill to allow liquor stores to sell alcohol on Sunday.
However, the hardship it would put on liquor stores, including municipal liquor stores in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area, seem to outweigh the convenience to consumers.
Since the days of prohibition, the laws preventing the sale of alcohol at liquor stores on Sundays was to maintain control over the sale of a product that clearly can be harmful if abused.
That said, the fact is that Minnesotans are used to the law, and have planned their shopping patterns around it.
Changing it would mean liquor stores, both private and municipal, would spend more money on staffing, utilities and other expenses, and would not likely see an increase in revenue, since sales would be spread out over seven days instead of six.
Other than convenience, there does not seem to be a dire need to change the law. Let's just leave it as it is.

i used skinless, boneless chicken breasts that i cut into strips. they cooked quickly. i didn't have buttermilk so just used regular milk. the this was a pretty easy weeknight meal and satisfied the 'chicken fingers' urge. served w/ ranch dressing and bbq sauce.

I serve the chx up with some Frank's Buffalo sauce or change it up and use some Asian spices and use Sriracha sauce. This wakes up the old taste buds!
redsox19762 Posted: 06/09/10
I used cajun seasoning with salt so I omitted the salt. I also sprinkled extra cajun spice on the chicken pieces after spraying them with cooking spray. Used 2 breasts and 4 drumsticks and it was SO good. The chicken was so tender! YUM!!
TriciaS Posted: 01/25/10
My husband & I both thought this was wonderful!! So EASY & delicious. Panko gave it a nice crunch, so it was truly crispy. Just a couple of changes: used Creole seasoning w/salt (had already) so I just omitted salt in recipe. Also added 1/4 tsp. hot sauce to spice up alittle. Served with potatoes & fresh green beans. Hit the spot!!
JenniferT75 Posted: 01/20/09
Super easy! My whole family loved this "fried" chicken. I accidentally bought spicy flavored panko and it turned out great anyway.
weckyb Posted: 01/28/09
I would definitely make this again for a quick week night meal. I used chicken breast tenderloins, added pepper to the seasoning and baked them for about 20 minutes at 400. The addition of the pepper added a nice little kick, so they weren't bland at all.
Carolinabev Posted: 09/19/10
My husband loves fried chicken so was reluctant to try this. It has become one of his favorites!
josephjohn Posted: 09/12/10
Frankly, I am a fried chicken person, but decided to try to save some calories! Awful, dry, tastless, and doesn't begin to compare to "fried chicken".
LauraMcGhghy Posted: 01/20/12
This is one of my favorite recipes - it always tastes so good. I usually sub boneless/skinless thighs for everything except the breasts and leave everything else the same. It is quick to prep and then cooks so I have time to make salad and get everything ready to eat.
becka251 Posted: 04/30/12
This is a good, solid recipe that is easy enough to make every week. I made this with 12 drumsticks and a half panko/ half whole wheat breadcrumbs mix to dredge.
jmullins10 Posted: 05/22/12
This is delicious. My husband and I both grew up eating fried chicken. My mother makes the best fried chicken in the South as far as I am concerned. However, the hubby and I have changed our eating habits and I had to find a healthy version that would satisfy our high standards and this was it. This is our weekly Sunday dinner and we love it. Not to be rude but whoever says this is tasteless, dry and awful must have prepared it wrong. Perfect for those looking for a healthy version of what Mom or Grandma makes!
EllenDeller Posted: 09/22/13
Made this tonight with chicken legs, and it was so moist and tasty. I did marinate the chicken about 30 minutes in buttermilk with some Tabasco & oregano and followed another reviewer's good advice about using 50% panko and 50% seasoned bread crumbs. There's a terrific cajun seasoning mix on the CL website that one can adjust for salt and heat, and that's what I used. Served with corn on the cob and some sauteed okra & peppers for a great end-of-summer meal.

10 things I hate about you
I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car, I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick, it even makes my rhyme. I hate the way you're always right, I hate it when you lie, I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. i hate it when you're not around and the fact that you didn't call but mostly i hate the way i don't hate you not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.

I could be the most delectable, delicious and most wondrous peach in the world and I could offer it to everyone. But there are people who are allergic to peaches. They may really want a banana and so often we become a banana for others. All the lost energy it takes to be a banana, when you're really a peach! If you wait long enough, you'll find a peach lover and then you can live your life as the finest peach and not a 2nd rate banana.

theoretically the images produced by a reflector is not as
sharp as that by a refractor of same diameter of aperture?
- David (24.11.2001)
Smaller the point a telescope can focus, the better its
optical performance. As the secondary mirror and the spider
vanes in Newtonian reflector blocks in front of the primary
mirror, the diffraction pattern※
of the star image is then enlarged. You may treat the image of
a celestial body, say Jupiter, as numerous tiny points of
light. These points are smeared so the contrast is degraded.
But practically, if the diameter
of the secondary mirror is small enough (below 25% of the
telescope diameter) and the spider vanes is thin enough (cross
section area less than 0.5% the area of aperture), the decease
in contrast can hardly be detected. If all other common
problems of reflectors (such as thermal inequilibrium,
spherical aberration and coma) are eliminated, this ideal
reflector should perform just as good as an ideal refractor.
※When light passes through an
obstacle (e.g. the rim of telescope tube), its traveling
direction deflects slightly. This phenomenon is called
diffraction. Diffraction will cause the point-like star image
to become a set of concentric circle.

Detective Inspector James Quill is back in Paul Cornell's The Severed Streets—a police procedural tinged with fantasy—available May 20th from Tor Books!
Desperate to find a case to justify the team's existence, with budget cuts and a police strike on the horizon, Quill thinks he's struck gold when a cabinet minister is murdered by an assailant who wasn't seen getting in or out of his limo. A second murder, that of the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, presents a crime scene with a message identical to that left by the original Jack the Ripper.
The new Ripper seems to have changed the MO of the old completely: he's only killing rich white men. The inquiry into just what this supernatural menace is takes Quill and his team into the corridors of power at Whitehall, to meetings with MI5, or 'the funny people' as the Met call them, and into the London occult underworld. They go undercover to a pub with a regular evening that caters to that clientele, and to an auction of objects of power at the Tate Modern.

Sachertorte Reviews
Epicurious | November 2004
Kaffeehaus: The Best Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest, and Prague
reviews & comments (35)
This cake cannot be baked at 400 as the recipe states. try 350 for 35-40 minutes. I wasted all of the ingredients baking as instructed. Redid cake and ba350 for 35-40 minutes...now that's a sachertorte! But what a waste of money and lots of time...and lots of utensils and bowls!
I made this today and it was a big success. I did adapt a few things though. Firstly, after reading that people did not think it had enough of a chocolate flavor, I added 1 tsp. of espresso powder to the batter which helped boost the chocolate flavor. I also added a small spoonful of cream of tartar to the egg whites to stabilize them. I lowered the oven temperature down to 380 F or so the outside would not totally dry out. I also used a thick walled springform pan which helped. In the end, it baked for 45 minutes without drying out and I got a good even bake. I used a completely different chocolate glaze that did not use as much sugar and had cream in it. Overall, it was a huge success for my husband. The Sachertorte is his favorite cake. I had never had it until coming to live here in The Netherlands.
I agree with all suggested modifications with the addition of two things: 1) a second person to clean up after the cook, ( my kitchen was a wreck afterwards) 2) two beers ( one for person) and a nap for follow up!
My boyfriend is Austrian so he asked me to make--had never heard of it. Didn't realize what I was getting into. Took 3 hrs to complete. I baked this at altitude (6800 ft)and added 1 egg and 1 tbs. flour to compensate--came out very nice, though as many have said, it is not a "pretty" cake. Cooked it at 375 for 40 mins. and it didn't burn and it held together through all the steps. Also, as others have said, the video is much better than the recipe. Followed everything else pretty closely except I used double the amount of the apricot glaze. Added sugar to the Schlag--really made it! Great reviews from my dinner party members.
This recipe is good but is more difficult than I expected. The cake was tricky and did not rise as much as I expected, or as I think it was meant to. The baking time for me was way off -- took it out at about 38 minutes in the oven and it was burnt when I pulled it out; managed to save it by cutting off the burned parts, but I would recommend watching closely starting at 30 minutes. The glaze is terrific -- both the apricot and the chocolate. I would recommend not skimping on the glaze in the middle layer, and also making the full recipe for the chocolate glaze instead of small batch, even though you likely won't use it all, i used almost all of it, and the glaze really was the best part.
This was easy to follow and make but I found the cake starting to burn at the edges at around 25 minutes. I pulled it out and was able to scrape the burned edges. Check your oven and keep and eye on the cake.
This was tasty, but not chocolately enough and sweeter than the real thing. I will give it another go with really dark chocolate. I also found that 35 minutes was enough.
A great recipe. The notes are correct that using quality ingredients is key to authenticity. I used standard semi-sweet + unsweetened baking chocolate in a 50-50 ratio to approximate what I thought would be "bittersweet" chocolate. The cake (still yummy) was sweeter than I remember eating in Vienna. I also liked how a couple of Viennese bakeries serve the side of whipped cream unsweetened. I recommend following the procedures in the helpful video over the written instructions for the chocolate and apricot glazes. The chef visually demonstrates the precise consistencies you are after. (My candy thermometer and my application of the written instructions had things too thick.) After a passable first attempt, I will know just what to do next time. This cake is fantastic and brings back wonderful memories. Thank you for providing a good recipe!!

ZEELAND, MI (WHTC) - A scare at Zeeland's Mead Johnson Nutritional facility on Main Street yesterday afternoon turned out to be a false alarm. Authorities were called to the plant when a staffer spotted a white powder on mail dropped off earlier in the day. It was determined that the powder came from single-serve baby formula samples contained in one of the packages that was inadvertently opened during mail processing at the Zeeland Post Office.

Martina McBride was on-hand again this year for the annual YMCA Celebrity Auction in Nashville on Sunday. The charity auction brought in over $153,000 to the YMCA, a 50% increase in funds from last year's event. The highest bid of the day went to McBride's black dress from the re-opening of the Grand Ole Opry last year after the historic flood. Her dress brought in $27,000 alone.
Other items with high bids of the night included $1,500 for McBride's leopard 80′s style outfit with the grey boots from her "Teenage Daughters" music video. A guitar that formerly belonged to Keith Urban brought in $4,000.
"I am always amazed at the big hearts of Country music fans. Even in these tough economic times, they realize there is a need to help these women and children who have taken the first step toward getting out of a bad situation and are starting their life over. Their compassion and generosity inspires me.
McBride has hosted the event every year since 1995.
Check out the music video for "Teenage Daughters" under the cut. Would you pay $1,500 for McBride's outfit?

Entry into Force
January 1, 1995
All (56) OSCE Participating States
Selected Members
United States and Russia
Official Website (External Link)
The Global Exchange of Military Information (GEMI) is a politically-binding transparency measure obligating the Participating States of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to report their military force structures. GEMI thereby serves as a confidence and security-building measure (CSBM) promoting openness and preventing conflicts potentially resulting from misinformation or a misunderstanding. GEMI entered into force on January 1, 1995, and the first data exchange occurred on July 1, 1995.
GEMI evolved from a proposal in the 1992 Helsinki Document's Program for Immediate Action. As a CSBM, GEMI is part of the OSCE's broad political-military transparency framework, which also includes agreements such as the Vienna Document 2011 (VDOC11) and the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) . However, GEMI is unique in its global scope. Participating States discuss issues relating to GEMI implementation, including grievances, in the OSCE's Forum for Security Cooperation (FSC). The FSC hosts the Annual Implementation Assessment Meeting (AIAM) every March to evaluate the implementation of all OSCE CSBMs, which include GEMI and VDOC11.
back to top
GEMI includes no on-site inspection provisions. However, at the AIAM, OSCE Participating States may request clarification of information provided by another state in its annual data declaration.
Data declarations under GEMI are submitted annually by April 30 and contain information current as of January 1 of that year. States are obligated to include information on its military command structure and personnel, as well as information on major weapons and equipment systems holdings. The information is divided into land forces and other forces. Land forces are reported down to the division level and other forces are reported down to the army or equivalent level. All force totals, both inside and outside the state's territory, are reported.
Data reported concerning the military command structure includes information on general staff locations and peacetime personnel strengths. Personnel strength information includes conscripts, enlisted personnel and officers by rank, reserves, and those serving under UN or OSCE mandates. Major weapons and equipment systems subject to reporting include: battle tanks; armored combat vehicles (armored personnel carriers, armored infantry fighting vehicles, and heavy armament combat vehicles); armored vehicle launched bridges; anti-tank guided missile launchers; self-propelled and towed artillery; aircraft (combat, military transport, and primary trainer aircraft); helicopters (attack, combat support, and military transport helicopters); surface warships; and submarines.
For each type or class of weapon, states are obligated to provide technical data and relevant photographs. The numbers of new weapons or equipment systems entering into service either through national production or as an import are also required to be reported each year.
The 21st AIAM was held March 1-2, 2011 in Vienna, Austria, to discuss VDOC 99 (now VDOC11) and GEMI, as well as many issues concerning small arms, light weapons (SALW), and man portable air-defense systems (MANPADs). Participating States also presented "food-for-thought" papers on implementing GEMI and other CSBMs. Several participants proposed an amendment to VDOC 99 paragraph 17, on OSCE inspections for clarification regarding military activities giving rise to concern.
The 22nd AIAM was held March 6-7, 2012, in Vienna, Austria. The 22nd AIAM was chaired by Estonia and Finland, and focused on continuing updates to the recently revised Vienna Document, as well as improving the implementation of GEMI and other CSBMs.
The 23rd AIAM is scheduled for March 5-6, 2013, in Vienna, Austria. Working session discussion topics include implementation of GEMI and the VDOC 11 Preamble and Chapters I to XII.

The Power of Ideas # 1"It's all about the idea."
Welcome to the first edition of The Power of Ideas!
"In conceptual art the idea or concept is the most important aspect of the work.
When an artist uses a conceptual form of art,
it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair.
The idea becomes a machine that makes the art."

ReflectionsVal's pursuit led him to the foul beast's domain. The hollowed-out cavern reeked of blood and rancid meat. The dim light he had seen as he charged through the tunnel after the monster could now be identified: torches. Rows of mysteriously lit torches lined the walls of the huge cave. At its center was a substantially large labyrinth of mirrors.
He spotted the beast entering.
He spun his silver broadsword in his hand and hurried in behind it.
His garb was a simple blue and white crusader's leather with thick armored pads and reinforcing steel studs. Lightweight and flexible, but quite effective defense against blunt blows and – in a pinch – the slashing claws of the unholy spawn of the earth. All monster-hunters wore a similar variety in Val's experience. It would serve him well in these close quarters of the mirrored maze.
Right, left, forward, left, right he turned, always catching a glimpse of the beast's tail as he wove his way through the corridors. Every so often he sp

|So Publishing Ltd
|First issue
|July 2007
|United Kingdom
SoGlos is an online magazine for Gloucestershire covering Cheltenham, the Cotswolds, the Forest of Dean, Gloucester, Stroud and Tewkesbury – with an editorial remit focused on arts, entertainment and leisure.
Overview and ownership[edit]
The online magazine is divided into dedicated sections including restaurants, theatre & comedy, art & culture, music and accommodation – each including relevant editorial event previews, reviews and news, plus a directory of Gloucestershire venues.
SoGlos is owned and run by independent Cheltenham-based publishing company So Publishing Ltd. While free for users to access, the online magazine generates revenue through the sale of display advertising.
Background and development[edit]
SoGlos was officially launched in July 2007, as reported by publications and websites including The Guardian,[1] Press Gazette,[2] and Webuser[3] as one of the UK's first regional online magazines written by professional journalists.
In 2008 SoGlos launched a Google Maps-powered Gloucestershire Interactive Map – a mash-up using the map provider's API and SoGlos's own directory of venue listings to plot restaurants, attractions, hotels across the county. This was reported by publications and websites including The Guardian[4] and Google Maps Mania.[5]
In 2009 SoGlos launched a series of Web widgets allowing webmasters to embed a calendar of Gloucestershire events, directly fed from the online magazine's listings, onto their own website. This was reported by publications and websites including journalism.co.uk,[6] Press Gazette[7] and HoldtheFrontPage.co.uk.[8]
Readership and awards[edit]
SoGlos is reported[9] to have a monthly reach of 82,000 individual readers, in addition to sending a weekly email newsletter to 22,000 subscribers.
In June 2010 SoGlos won the title of 'Website of the Year' in the EDF Energy South West Media Awards.[10] In May 2010 SoGlos won the title of 'Best eBusiness' in the Cheltenham Borough Council-run Business Excellence Awards.[11]
SoGlos's YouTube channel[12] is one of the most popular in South West England, with total upload views exceeding 4.5 million - thanks in part to the popularity of videos of Gloucestershire's annual cheese rolling tradition.

Before & After: Updated Bamboo Etageres
Junkin' Junky
When Mel first saw this pair of bamboo shelving units in her Habitat for Humanity store, she passed them by without purchasing. She then spent the rest of the night worrying that someone else would have snapped them up; thankfully they were still at the store when she returned the following day. With their glass shelves and ornate lines, Mel just knew these pieces were perfect for a makeover.
Mel painted her pair of bamboo shelves white, immediately transforming them from a blah relic from the past to a lovely addition to a modern day living room. For only $70 for the pair (plus the price of paint), Mel was able to create a wonderful display in her home at a bargain price. The gorgeous lines of these shelves really stand out in the glossy white, and the end result would look right at home in any design magazine photo shoot.

Good find!
Love them!
Agree completely w/Lyonstill, having the in-home photos is a huge help!
Well done!!!
I love the transformation! What kind of paint did she use?
Would be more fun in a bamboo or even a lime green. Now that they're primed of course, you're halfway there.
These are an extraordinary shape, lovely details. Great find!
Cute! Great job!!
Beautiful! Great job!
Love them, but I admit, I thought about lime green (or chartreuse) as well...
SOOO much better now than dark...
I am always sad to see the kind of commentary that puts down things that are not to the featured homeowner's taste - i.e. " a blah relic from the past," are the words used to describe the before phase of this item. I actually prefer the before, (which, however, is not the point of this post) and not something I think needs saying every time something strikes me that way.
Decorating, and taste in general, are so individualistic - why not say something like "too dark and old-looking for her," without dissing the taste of everyone who does not hold the same opinion. It may not have been the author's intention to do that, but, to me, that is the message carried by such descriptions.
They look great..fun and fresh...you've 'styled' ;) them so nicely too!! ..And I'm sure you wouldn't of spent 70 dollars on PRIMER as mentioned above as a suggestion to repaint them chartreuse ...etc..now 'that they're primed' eeeee/! I love chartreuse, but feel that would def give them a 70's vibe.so no...
ohh they look great!! My aunt had a pair of bamboo shelves very similar to these, along with the now iconic peacock chairs.
Im not a paint it white hater by any means because I think as wonderfully proven in this case...its always a good bet. They would look great though in a candy color (like lime or blue...although very Adler I guess)
There is nothing as classic, or timeless, as white. These are perfect in color on style as the accessories can change with season, style, locale without worrying that they will "clash" with the furniture! The paint application is flawless. Mel, you're home must be beautiful!
I do believe it is a matter of styling. I think that if they had a vibrant color on the wall behind the shelves that they would have looked just as modern. If ther rest of the furnature was that same brown... then they'd probably would have looked dated. There are so many options for these shelves that I'm sure many would pass by for looking old and fussy. This is one view.
I love the idea someone had to have them be a bright color themselves! Although I don't think this would feel right within the space the author was intending them for. Not everyone wants to live amongst highy saturated color.
This is good example of how some times the simplest change can be the most striking.
I like the original bamboo and the painted equally well, though the bare bamboo may be too scratched up. I think you did a great job making these fit your aesthetic. They look pretty with the wall color.
Brilliant! They look fabulous in your room.
The $70 were spent on the shelves themselves, not the primer... or the paint, even.
gorgeous! i love bamboo and how clean they look in the white. great job!
great job and you know how to style a shelf so that helps them look even better.
Wow! Great eye! I would have passed right by those in their original condition.
@LEPIDOPTERY It was the heat...and from me, someone annoyed when people don't read the post correctly..;0
Really great transformation!!!
Beautiful makeover and I'm tad jealous of your lovely score!
I am so jealous! I am always scouring Craig's List for something like this and have yet to find. They look awesome!! & GREAT find! :-)

Should the market's new highs scare you?
More record levels for the Dow and S&P 500 on Friday, but stocks are is showing signs of being overbought. Here's what to watch for.
This is not a joke. The stock market has definitely become frothy, at least in the short term, and a sell-off is building. It's a question of when. So, if you're in the market, it'll be best to think about when you want to sell to protect your gains.
At the same time, you have to think about how deep and how long the sell-off will be. If you think it will be a short pause, waiting it out may be a valid tactic. A big break may require some moves.
The Dow Jones Industrials ($INDU) and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ($INX) not only finished the week at closing highs, but the closes for both index were intraday highs as well. The Dow ended up 36 points to 15,118. The S&P 500 finished at 1,634, up 7 points to 1,634.
The Nasdaq Composite Index ($COMPX) closed at 3,436.58, up 27 points. That was two one-hundredths of a point below 3,436,60, its intraday high and its highest close since Nov. 3, 2000. But here's why bulls ended the day reasonably excited. A decent gain on a Friday is often bullish. It means investors want to own stocks over the weekend because they expect more gains ahead. Twenty-three of the 30 Dow stocks were higher, led by IBM (IBM), UnitedHeath Group (UNH) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ).
So were 377 S&P 500 stocks and 85 stocks in the Nasdaq-100 Index ($NDX), which was up 20 points to 2,981, its best close since Nov. 15, 2000.
The Dow was up 1% for the week, with the S&P 500 up 1.2% and the Nasdaq up 1.7%. For the year, the Dow is up 15,4%, while the S&P 500 has gained 14.6% and the Nasdaq 13.8%. The major averages have not had a losing month since November.
Now to the bad news. The Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq ended the week trading 10% higher than their 200-day moving averages. Not signals of imminent pullback, but signals that things are frothy.
Their 14-day relative strength indexes are all above 78. The Nasdaq's was 85.77 on Friday. Those are a clear overbought signals, and some pullback is near. The RSIs topped 70 in late March 2012. A sell-off that trimmed nearly 10% from the S&P 500 began on April 3, 2012.
The week ahead includes a host of important economic reports, including retail sales on Monday, producer prices on Tuesday and consumer prices and housing starts on Thursday.
But the big noise you will hear all week is: When will the Federal Reserve start to stop buying bonds and letting interest rates rise?
This is both a joke and a worry. The joke is the Fed itself won't raise rates until next year at the earliest. But the worry is that bond traders will take the chatter seriously and start selling anyway.
There was pressure on bonds this past week as stocks moved up. The 10-year Treasury yield moved up to 1.9% on Friday from 1.752% a week earlier, as the market rally pulled money from bonds.
Why? Last week's jobs report suggested employment is holding up. Thursday's jobless claims report was even more bullish. Claims fell to the lowest levels since January 2008.
Moreover, the combination of tax increases and sequestration and an improving economy are trimming the projected federal deficit substantially. Figures from the Congressional Budget Office show that receipts are 16% higher in the first seven months of fiscal 2013 compared with a year ago.
The import: The CBO has projected an $845 billion deficit for the year. But that figure is now "hopelessly outdated," Greg Valliere of the Potomac Research Group wrote clients this week. Look for a deficit closer to $700 billion. The deficit was $1.1 trillion in fiscal 2012.
Next week includes some very important earnings reports on Wednesday and Thursday.
Before Wednesday's open, Macy's (M) and farm-equipment maker Deere (DE) report. After the close comes Cisco Systems (CSCO). Macy's $47.23 close on Friday was an all-time high. The shares are up 21% this year.
Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) and Kohl's (KSS) report before Thursday's open. After the close brings reports from Aruba Networks (ARUN), Autodesk (ADSK) and Nordstrom (JWN). Wal-Mart hit a 52-week high on May 3; Nordstrom's Friday close was a 52-week high.

If bond traders start selling, they're going to start buying equities.
4/17/13 MSN Bears were harping about commodities falling, Wall Street stalling, the Valkeries are calling investors to their doom. DJI 14618.
Today DJI is 15118, 500 points higher and it's frothy, is it?
Astute investors have learned to tell a good stock from a bad writer. Buy the one, dump the other. Take a profit, but there's no need to head for the panic bar just because you saw a bear in the street. As long as your corp. is still earning revenue and profits, paying dividends, increasing them occasionally, buying its own shares back on dips, there's no need at all to even think you'll need to dump and run.
Yes, you have no advanced notice of when the Fed abandons this madness. The rich will get theirs first and you MIGHT get part of the scraps. Inevitability hurts when you keep convincing yourself it won't happen. Inevitably... it will.
15 years ago there was $50-60 Trillion in currencies worldwide. There is more than $1 quadrillion out there now. That's a 99.5% inflation from validated currency-to-assets, to all this fake money. What are the odds that YOU will see anything in the compression?
The top dogs in the banks are greedy but not stupid. If you will look back and what happened in Japan. The public were savers. The greedy bankers paid very low interest to their depositors. They then used the depositors money to buy up a lot of America. This made some of the insider bankers very rich, but they screwed their own people. All of this came to roost and the Japanese economy tanked. I believe the same thing is happening here. The top dogs in the banks and Corporate America paying themselves tons of money, while not paying the bank depositors practically anything, and dividends are not much better. Some of the banks are "too big to fail". The real threat is that the banks have too much influence in Washington through Lobbyists influencing greedy politicians. BREAK UP THE BANKS and reduce their influence in Washington.
Yes, the stock market is hitting all time highs, but the supposedly new wealth will not buy much because of the devaluation of our currency.
KOO, the question whether you are on medication or just clueless. You say Buffet is a right wing tight-azz conservative. Pull your head out. This guy believes in raising taxes on corporations and individuals. You show me someone else who you would call a tight-azz conservative who supports buffet in this? Well you can't, because conservatives do not support this and Buffet does. Use logic if you are able and see that makes Buffet anything but a conservative. Duh!
But then I am writing to a leftist and leftist live in fantasylands of "if I say it, it is true". So you say Buffet is a conservative, therefore he is, because you said so. WOW!
I think everyone has cut back on spending. You can see that on trash day and by driving around.
I don't see many new cars with paper plate.
No more big TV boxes in the trash pile.
If people are spending it's on home repair or their lawns.
As for unemployment. I went to the dirt yard the other day and everyone of their employees hit me up for some kind of job. One wanted to install the dirt. The guy that delivered the dirt at my home even handed me his handy man card.
This market is only being pumped by uncle sam. They are building even a large bubble then what hit last time. A lot of these companies stocks are over valued by as much as 20%.
When this market starts to crash and everyone heads for the hills at the same I just hope you folks are not to greedy and lose your pants to the large banks and uncle sam selling their shares first.
Jerry Mac....Do you "only follow" Markets and Companies for 1 Quarter or 60-90 days...?
I'm pretty sure "revenues" have been up, until this last quarter ?
Earnings on many are hitting close or better to consensus, but guidance is weak on some..
Weakness in Europe and China pulling back to the Homeland, have played a big part.
Foreigners are investing in our Markets for safe haven, and buying up some of our real estate.
Do you wonder or consider, WHY that is...??
Just sayin'...

text: According to the Centers for Disease Control, the average patient will wait nearly an hour to see a doctor, up from 38 minutes ten years ago. The reason? Fewer emergency departments and more visits to them. Emergency room visits increased by almost 1/3 (32 percent) between 1996 and 2006 with 119 million visits in 2006. At the same time there were 300 fewer emergency departments to handle the need. In addition, ED beds fill up with patients who are waiting for a bed to free up so they can be admitted to the hospital.

Welcome, and thank you for considering us for your performance diesel needs. There are quite a few changes for 2014. First we are offering free shipping on all web orders to the lower 48. If you buy a 1oz. decal or a 150lbs. loaded cylinder head shipping is now FREE! Roller cams for the Cummins and roller rockers for the 12v are going to be released soon as well as a newly re-designed cylinder head for 350+ CFM! Also, we have added nine new profiles to improve airflow for your specific application, whether you are towing 30,000lbs in the mountains, drag racing or sled pulling. For all out competition engines check out our new three pattern cams with different profiles on cylinders one and six to fix the flow imbalance they have. With over 20 different Cummins cams in stock, and ready to ship, and many other competition grinds not listed, we have the widest selection of cams to meet your specific needs from 1,500-6500RPM! Feel free to call us if you have any questions about specifications, pricing and availability on any of our products. For international orders, please call the office.
Warning: not all 24valve springs are created equal.... recently we have started seeing other companies market products that are called 110lb 24 valve springs, when in reality they have 117-119lb of seat pressure and almost 250lb nose pressure at .320 lobe lift. Also, they are designed as an entry level spring for a dodge neon, but are re-boxed and sold to the diesel crowd. This spring can cause major lobe wear to anything over a stock lift cam. ALL of our cams have more than stock lift.
For comparison, our 103lb springs have 102-104lb seat pressure and 180lb nose pressure with the 188-220. By running anything other than our 103lb 24v springs with our cam, you nullify the warranty we offer. If you run a cam with more than .320" lobe lift and anything other than the 103lb spring you run the chance of experiencing coil bind before maximum valve lift is achieved.

The madman, understood not as one who is sick but as an established and maintained deviant, as an indispensable cultural function, has become, in Western experience, the man of primitive resemblances. This character, as he is depicted in the novels of plays of the Baroque age, and as he was gradually institutionalized right up to the advent of nineteenth-century psychiatry, is the man who is alienated in analogy. He is the disordered player of the Same and the Other. He takes things for what they are not, and people one for another; he cuts his friends and recognizes complete strangers; he thinks he is unmasking when, in fact, he is putting on a mask.

True, the Fed statute says that loans can be issued with conditions. As a commenter asks, what loan doesn't have conditions? See here also. But the Fed statute does not say that the Fed can purchase businesses, and it seems reasonable to interpret the statute to forbid the Fed to purchase businesses. So here's the question, is the AIG deal a purchase or a loan? I suspect the deal is a loan in form but a purchase in substance. Unfortunately, the details are not available, but the press accounts suggest that the Fed is receiving AIG equity (more precisely, the option to obtain equity) as collateral for the loan but that it's going to exercise the option more or less automatically. Here's an analogy. Suppose that I lend you $100 and we agree that all of the equity in your business will be collateral for the loan. The contract provides, however, that you must pay me interest of a gazillion dollars, due one second after closing, and that if you fail, that counts as a default, whereupon the collateral is mine. The parties use the loan form but substantively a sale occurs. A court would almost certainly interpret the transaction as a sale, not a loan, if tax or other legal consequences turned on the distinction. If the AIG loan is like this, then it's illegal. So: why aren't our rule-of-law friends yowling?

If you didn't like the finale, I guess that happens. We tried something and it didn't connect with you. I hope we're still friends. So anyway, here's a bit of news: 16 days ago today we were in the HIMYM edit room, trying to decide between two very different endings. We only shot one script, but through edit room magic we had two possible outcomes for the series. We chose the ending we chose and we stand by it. But we loved the other version too. We're going to include that version on the Complete Series DVD as an alternate finale to How I Met Your Mother.

The priests and the nobles made up the upper class
of the Maya people. (The merchants and traders were the middle class.
The farmers and slaves were on the bottom.) The nobles ran the
government. The priests ran everything else. Some priests also held
government jobs. The nobles might have believed they were in charge, but
it was the priests who had real power.
Maya people believed their priests could talk to their gods. The priests
told the people what the gods had said. No matter what your class, there
was no arguing with the gods.
priests told the people when to plant, when to harvest, when to marry,
