So, Ello, then.
I'm on there. Lots of people are on there (even if they're not really using it yet). But I'm very far from convinced just yet.
Being wary of Facebook's use of personal data is a positive thing, I'd agree. But that, in of itself, is not necessarily enough to build a new business on. You can't compete if you just do things differently to Facebook, you need to be compellingly better. And right now, Ello - which is, admittedly, in beta - is not compellingly better. It's fun. It's lightweight. I'm not sure the "typewriter" aesthetic would be my choice, but there you are. But it's not better right now.
And there are plenty of alarm bells ringing about how compellingly different it actually can be now it has take venture capital.
I'm convinced that the wheel will turn away from Facebook at some point, but I bet it won't be to something everyone is celebrating as a Facebook killer. No, it'll be to something that does things differently enough that, at first, no-one sees the connection.
Anyway, I've written a deeper analysis of Ello for NEXT Conference - and you can connect with me on Ello, if you'd like…

Comparable Company Analysis - CCA
Definition of 'Comparable Company Analysis - CCA'
A process used to evaluate the value of a company using the metrics of other businesses of similar size in the same industry. Comparable company analysis (CCA) operates under the assumption that similar companies will have similar valuations multiples, such as EV/EBITDA. Analysts will compile a list of available statistics for the companies being reviewed, and will calculate the valuation multiples in order to compare them. Comparisons often involve creating benchmarks.
Comparable company analysis is often referred to as a company's "comps".
Investopedia explains 'Comparable Company Analysis - CCA'
Comparable company analysis starts with establishing a peer group consisting of similar companies of similar size in the same industry and region. Investors are then able to use online resources to compare a particular company to its competitors. This information can be used to determine a company's enterprise value and to calculate other ratios used to compare a company to those in its peer group.

According to one of our NFL sources, the Colts have brought former Colorado center Albert Bimper back, signing him to their practice squad.
The team had a vacancy on the eight-man roster after promoting rookie offensive tackle Daniel Federkeil out of the University of Calgary from the practice squad last Saturday. He saw action on special teams for the Colts against the Titans on Sunday.
The move is a bit of a surprise since the team released second-year veteran offensive lineman Matt Ulrich, who cleared waivers and still has practice squad eligibility left.
Bimper, a 6-foot tall, 300-pound undrafted free agent, was released by the Colts on August 30th following a solid training camp. He had suffered a high ankle sprain in the team's preseason matchup against the Saints shortly before his release.
The Colts then signed him to their practice squad on September 6th, but then released him again a few days later as the team tweaked its roster.

Catholicism opposes the equality of women
Catholicism opposes the equality of women. How can men, especially men with a wife, daughters or sons, be members of the catholic church and claim to believe in equality for women?
- Nuns/women are not allowed to own property; Priests/men can.
- Nuns take a vow of obedience. Priests do not.
- Women are not allowed to hold high office within the catholic church. Only men can be priests, pastors, bishops, cardinals or pope.
If actions speak louder than words, what is Catholicism saying about the value of women?
Fair and equal treatment is a requirement of ones perceived value; especially from authority figures.
If, "...we as men, good men, the large majority of men, we operate on the foundation of this whole collective socialization.", how can we be good men and indoctrinate our sons and daughters into an influential community that practices and perpetuates the inequality of women?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Sep 19 2011: Why not then, not be Catholic if one does not like Catholicisms rules and culture?
So only men can be priests, and to be a nun one must take special vows different then that of what a priest would take? That does not imply some grave sexism but instead differing roles for differing people which are not even mandatory for every Catholic.
This reminds me of the conflicts between feminist groups and Orthodox Judaism. Reform/Conservative Judaism has entirely embraced feminism and in fact a majority of Jews adhere to those latter two sects, but for Orthodox Jews still adhere to older rules which Feminists decry as sexist. For example only Male Rabbi, Cohen, Kantors, and the gender specific seating and the rules around what men can do and what women can do. Feminist groups wish to change and regulate the Orthodox, however the Orthodox are not requiring anyone to join or be in their community... and why focus on attack a small group instead of empowering ones own?
I say, if you don't like Catholicism, start your own church.
Woody DunkinSep 20 2011: You are correct - thousands of adults have left the church as you suggested. But what about the children who are indoctrinated at birth? Do they have the ability to make that choice?
This debate was started in support of correcting the unequal treatment of women in society. Because it is systemic we need to ask ourselves why is it happening? By highlighting how just one influential organization perpetuates the unequal treatment of women hopefully will raise the awareness and lead to a correction. Cultural shifts take time and no one organization is to blame, but each one should be held responsible.
Sep 20 2011: I question the "systemic" nature of said alleged unequal treatment and would be quick to point out that likewise men get a raw deal in many ways that benefit women. First off I contest the notion that it is unequal, or that it has to be in accordance with post modernist cause celebre notions of "progress."
Children, when they grow up, can decide to leave their family and their families culture all they like. Until then I suggest you butt out and leave people alone.
Sep 20 2011: "Children, when they grow up, can decide to leave their family and their families culture all they like. Until then I suggest you butt out and leave people alone."
Would you walk on by if you saw a woman being abused by a man in the street? Would you sit idly by as, day after day, you witnessed a co-worker was being sexually harassed in the work place? Would you not do anything to help those around you who were being mistreated? By your "butt out" comment, I am assuming you would do just that and not involve yourself in their business. I call that being an immoral coward.
Woody DunkinSep 20 2011: James - one of the values of this debate forum is to "butt in" and speak up against injustice.
Please find the courage to reflect back to when you were a child; vulnerable, impressionable. How easy is it for you to leave behind the prejudice and bias you were subject to? Are you even aware of them? By the time you are an adult it takes extraordinary awareness and intelligence to "leave the family's culture" you suggest.
We have a responsibility to the next generation (and ourselves) to coach forward. Surely we can do better than being indifferent toward injustices. Shouldn't generations co-exist rather than being a passive witness to injustice and butting out?

Gwen Voorhies Fine Art
I create paintings filled with memories and illusions of people, places and objects.
The images vary from abstract to photorealism, skills it has taken me years to learn. There is often a sense of a calligraphic line or a "gestural" abstract quality to my work, a feature found even in some of my earliest pieces which resurfaces when I am playing with paint. It is this sense of play that seems to delight the viewer...and challenges my artistic process.
I have studied with many different art instructors, some for several years. Lately though, I find myself returning often to the advice of the late Elmore Morgan, a Contemporary Landscape artist. I took a workshop from him after the art critic Peter Frank, juror of the 2008 Southern Open event, said he saw a similarity of my brushwork style to Morgan's that I hadn't noticed. Once there, I struggled with one of Morgan's assignments in which you experiment with color, shapes and combining various mediums. If I remember correctly Morgan believed each artist has a set of recurring themes we return to over and over again and he thought it was vital to develop our innate sense of color combinations truly making them our own and incorporating them with those themes. At a recent workshop with Laurence Young those colors and shapes resurfaced in an exciting new direction and I have been struggling with the transition, not quite sure where I am headed.
Now it is the changes of light which create a color change on shapes and reflections on surfaces which inspires me to paint. The subject matter is becoming secondary to these influences. A sense of balance and structure is sometimes repeated in the paintings as I combine paints and charcoal/pastel. I find myself thinking of painting in a completely different way, fascinated not only with the process of creating a piece but in an effort to capture that ethereal movement created by the changing light. This website gives me the opportunity to share my visions with the world. Thank you for taking the time to visit and view my work!

Weft Pile Fabrics
In pile fabrics, a proportion of the threads, either warp or weft, are made to project at right angles from a foundation texture and form a pile on the surface.
The projecting threads may be cut or uncut thus resulting in tufted or looped pile.
Weft pile fabrics are composed of one series of warp threads and two series of weft threads, the ground and the pile.
The pile weft is cut in a separate operation after weaving resulting in a surface consisting of short and very dense tufts.
In weft pile structures, also known as velveteens is very high density of picks, which may reach to 200 picks per centimeters.
The pile effect in the velveteen is not produced during weaving but is a result of a cutting operation during cloth finishing.
The structure is so arranged that the surface of the cloth is covered by weft floats.
These floats are then severed by knife action and form a cut pile surface.
The ground cloth, usually plain or twill is unaffected by the knife action and forms a solid base from which the cut tufts project and in which they are anchored.
Structurally velveteens are of four types:
a. All over or plain velveteen in which the surface is uniformly covered by the pile.
b. Weft Plushes: Similar to above but arranged to produce much longer floats.
c. Corded velveteens: Also known as Corduroys and fustions in which the pile runs in orderly vertical cords of varying width.
d. Figured Velveteens: in which pile figure is produced on base ground.

New diggs: VMware!October 9, 2007 – 10:06 am
I have an exciting new role at VMware.
Plenty to say thanks for while at Sun — cool projects (like Solaris Internals, Solaris Performance and Tools, developing the community around Solaris Performance, MemTool, fun with Niagara and CMT) and working with many great people in PAE and the Solaris group, I'm hoping to keep doing our joint performance class at Usenix with Jim too…
There's a great team here in the performance group — over 45 engineers and researchers working on many aspects of virtualization performance. You can see the whole team's virtual blog here. Some of the things I'll be looking at include scaling up of key applications, observability techniques, performance tuning and resource management.
But why is virtualization so interesting to a performance person? The answer is to look at the bigger picture… Performance is already super-critical for virtualization (it has to be efficient by it's basic definition and value proposition). However, given the foundation, there is are a lot of interesting techniques that can be done…
If we think for a moment about the holy grail for performance management, we're trying to get to a point where we can do automated performance monitoring, diagnosis and adaptation. That is, we'd like the environment to be able to take in a set of policies that we express about our applications and act accordingly on those policies.
In the past, I've seen customers struggle with creating the boundary that defines where we apply these policies — it's quite hard to define these at the application component level – for example, which process or set of processes do I apply a CPU priority to? The virtual machine however provides a great insular boundary at which resource management policies can be applied. This encapsulation of an application allows us to express a basic set of resource requirements, and then let the infrastructure decide how much CPU to apply.
With this basic encapsulation in place, we can not just apply resource management at the box level (the typical consolidation play), but now we can express and manage at the grid level — with newer techniques like Dynamic Resource Scheduling we can automatically place workloads onto a grid of machines. Once there, we can dynamically load balance them by using vMotion to move them.
This is a convenient and easy way to express encapsulation and policy today. I don't see this as being the end-point however, rather a convenient first step. In the future, we'll want to break out applications into individual transactions or service levels. This would allow is to monitor in terms in specific currency of the target application, and then optionally automatically control resources based on these terms.
I'm also keenly interested in the progress that dynamic VM level probes are making — Keith Adams and team are working on an OS independent dynamic probe infrastructure (VProbes), that will let us monitor and analyze applications in a portable way across Windows, Linux and Solaris. Much more to come on this topic…
So, there's plenty to fun stuff coming, stay tuned…

"Synergy E5 will be unveiled Thursday at 2pm! It will be sporting the new Rail 556mm main blades, so don't forget to come check us out at the Synergy tent on vender row!"
Synergy R/C Helicopters
This year at IRCHA, the all new Synergy E5 will be unveiled to the public. We plan on unveiling on Thursday at 2pm! See you there!
Here is what Matt had to say about the E5 earlier this year.
"The E5 project just started at the end of January. A prototype is flying at the moment and I will post pictures when I have the canopy sample. There are some new "original" features that could be easily duplicated which is why I have chosen to not release pictures. As you could imagine, this is a very competitive market and I need to take advantage of every original design aspect.
A little more information about the E5 :
- 550 Class Electric Heli
- 10mm main shaft / 8mm head axle
- Machined Delrin Helical Main Gear
- Shaft Driven Tail System
- Monster Mod 1.25 Bevel Gears and Counter Gear
- Lower motor shaft bearing block
- Third main shaft bearing block
- Direct servo to swash CCPM (very similar to the E6/7)
- 52mm inner frame width for multiple motor options
- 25/30mm motor bolt width for multiple motor options
- Washout Arm mounting integrated into the head block
- 6S – 12S battery compartment capability (I am currently running 6S 5000mah packs)
- Easily stretched to 600 class helicopter with E6 parts
I wish I could give you a release date but as until I am closer to pre-production it is very difficult to estimate. Historically models that I have started in January are released in the summer.

Blankets of snow
What? Snow in September? Not quite, but Sweet Autumn Clematis (Clematis ternifolia) reminds me of it as drapes over hedges and mailboxes across town. It always pops up in our garden unannounced and usually in unwelcome places. For example, the hedge in the above photo runs along the street and encloses a tiny vegetable garden. I always see the clematis scampering about it during the summer and I usually just yank it out since this hedge has to be trimmed about every four or five weeks. I don't know how it escaped me this year but when it started to bloom, it was too pretty to pull it out.
The vines are covered with these tiny star-shaped flowers and will reach distances of 20-30 feet if given the opportunity. It thrives here, in sun or shade, and is very drought tolerant. I'm always digging up seedlings and sharing them. It grows fast and can easily cover an arbor or gazebo in a season. It can be cut back all the way to the ground in the fall or the following spring.
In addition to a beautiful show, the vine has an intoxicating sweet smell!

I've never had this re-seed so it must be a climate issue. It does look like a dusting of snow but that brings snow to mind and I just can't think of that right now!

My Autumn Clematis doesn't seed itself either. I love the way it 'snows' this time of year. Yours looks lovely in the hedge.

Beautiful, one of my favorites. I wish mine did a better job of seeding itself. I have one growing in an impossible spot--a seam between sidewalk and garage. I fear it isn't doing well and I will never be able to get another to grow there.

It's one of my favorites. Mine does self-seed, but pretty discreetly--I never get more than I can find homes for. One did grow up through a camellia this year--I'm letting it bloom and then I'll move it in the spring. The scent is wonderful.

Me too, Phillip. I just wrote about it a few days ago. It is kind of a nightmare, but so pretty when it blooms.~~Dee

I love this vine. Mine is blooming profusely, too. It grows wild in the woods around here and is such a wonderful sign of early fall. Reminds me of confederate jasmine which blooms in the spring.

Since I've been reading garden blogs, I've learned this is one of those plants that people grow everywhere but not so much in California. I see it for sale now and then, but I've never seen it in an actual garden. Sedum 'Autumn Joy' is the other one I read a lot about this time of year.

Anyone not realising the situation out there really should try to find an understanding of what this catastrophe means for the future. This is not going away, it is not getting better, we are continually adding to the situation with bad solutions to impossible problems permanently effecting ocean life and in turn our own. My big concern is that not enough is being done internationally to help resolve this and Japan cannot do it alone. The only thing we have to compare this to is Chernobyl which did not have the opportunity to contaminate the entire oceanographic food chain and it is not a compatible comparison to substitute nuclear weapons tests as they are not nearly as 'dirty' and leave far less nuclear matter than partially depleted uranium fuel rods

There are lots of marketing techniques that can be useful for you to utilize as you get started crafting the perfect contractor marketing plan for your business. After all, with the digital age upon us how can you not take advantage of the many digital platforms that are now available for use? When you make use of digital advertising and marketing, you are reaching a massive market for a lot less money than you would spend on traditional advertising and marketing efforts. Instead of wasting your time and energy on those methods, utilize the brilliant plans of the Contractor Marketing Gurus to help your contractor marketing plan reach full potential. They have worked with businesses like yours before and are more adept and better equipped than anyone else in working to specifically meet the needs of your contracting business. Do not hesitate; get started working with them soon so that you can begin taking advantage of their expertise!
One thing that people often run into is the question of how to increase visibility and web traffic to their website. There are two main methods- outside of using social media branding to do the trick- that people tend to utilize more than others. These methods are SEO and PPC; Search Engine Optimization and Pay Per Click Advertising. Both of these methods have proven successful time and time again in increasing web traffic to your site because they both make use of Google Adwords to determine what people are searching for when they are looking for a contracting business like yours. By determining these keywords, the experts at the Contractor Marketing Gurus can then set your SEO and PPC plans in motion. But which should you utilize in what scenarios? And how will you be able to see which plan is working most effectively? Perhaps the key difference between PPC advertising and SEO marketing is that they are just that: an advertising method and a marketing method. With contractor PPC you reach people quickly and you reach people who know more clearly what they are looking for. With contractor SEO, you are working to bring your company into the limelight so that when a potential customer sees your webpage and clicks on it, they realize what they were looking for. The difference is in giving people what they want and helping people discover what they need.
On a more practical note, PPC and SEO are run very similarly through the use of Google Adwords, but the timelines are quite different. Contractor PPC is great if your contracting business is in need of a quick reboot and you are looking for new clients quickly. Perhaps you have some special event you are advertising and need to gain traction for; PPC is your go to tool. If you have the long term in mind, contractor SEO is right for you as this is a more long term kind of marketing plan. By bringing your website higher and higher up on the list of sites on a Google search, you are working in a long term way to gain traction that lasts long after an advertisement is no longer posted.

Speaker Gunn, Republicans Reload for Second Sunshine Act StandoffBy Daniel Cherry | Published 13 Feb 2012 09:03pm |
Republicans in the Mississippi House of Representatives continue to push a bill aimed at limiting the Attorney General's power to hire private attorneys and file lawsuits on behalf of the state. MPB's Daniel Cherry reports how after a failure last week, the bill is a step closer to becoming law.
The House Judiciary A Committee voted on party lines, passing House Bill 211 also known as the Sunshine Act to the House floor. The bill would allow state agency heads to hire their own attorneys when they feel Attorney General Jim Hood, the only Democrat holding statewide office, can't appropriately represent their agency. Hood says it's a waste of money.
"At a bare minimum just say lawyers that these agencies want to go out and hire cost $130 an hour, we charge $65/hr. That's going to cost the state $11 million more dollars for what they're talking about doing with this bill, and it's about partisanship whether or not the Republican lawyers are being hired."
A similar measure was killed last Thursday after heated debate when Democrats found errors with the bill. Speaker Philip Gunn who authored the bill, reloaded and filed a new bill with corrections on Friday. Now the new bill is through committee and set to hit the floor for debate. Mark Baker, a Republican and Judiciary A Committee Chairman says the law is badly needed.
"The Attorney General may well call it a waste. The truth of the matter is, without this, we are faced with a situation where we have agency heads who's agencies have actually filed lawsuits that they didn't even know they were filing. They're acually involved with matters they have no knowledge of. That's no the way to run a state government."
But House Democrats like Bob Evans say the bill is dangerous.
"You're making it an open range in the State of Mississippi for law firms to come in and represent these agency heads and these officers for monies already made available through the Attorney General's office to do these things."
Leaders say there is no definite timeline for a vote on the bill, but they say they want to move the measure as soon as possible.

Sunspotgatehoaxapacolpyse 2011! IT'S THE EOTW!!!!!!!
Despite semi-hysterical reports you may be hearing in the media, sunspot experts want to make this very clear:
We may see sunspot activity go into a short hibernation (called the Maunder Minimum), but this does not mean we are going into a mini-Ice Age. I want to ram that point home, because as back-asswards as some of our climate policy is these days, I'd half expect there to be calls to pump extra CO2 into the atmosphere to give us some extra warmth. Ahh, the warm wool blanket of fossil fuel exhaust, just what a maybe-frozen Earth needs.
Ok, so if you hear someone mention this, smack them with a knowledge stick and say "Not so fast!"

Rapper turned mogul Jay Z isn't involved in the NBA any longer after he sold any remaining shares so he could start Roc Nation Sports, but his affiliation with the Brooklyn Nets at one time has him named in a recent lawsuit.
According to Radar Online, the NBA along with Jay are being sued over the Brooklyn Nets trademark which Dr. Francois de Cassagnol says he came up with before the Nets and Jay Z.
RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that the rapper and businessman has been named as a defendant in a $600M lawsuit by a disgruntled entrepreneur who claims that he trademarked the name "Brooklyn Nets" long before the NBA team ever moved out of New Jersey.
He's requesting $600 million in damages.
Cassagnol says he spoke with the NBA prior to the move and was told that the team would likely be named the 'New York Nets' but the NBA claims no such thing happened. In addition, a previous appeal to the Patent Office found the NBA was in the right and there was no wrong doing on their part.

One real distinction between Christ School and other schools is our faculty's enthusiasm and deep commitment to you. You'll feel this on your first visit to the school. Hear the laughter between faculty and students-feel the rapport-and you'll know that they are there for you. What's more, they are part of your community. Your teachers and their families live on campus and participate fully in the life of the school. Some oversee residence halls as house parents. Some coach sports. Some serve as advisors for extracurricular activities. All of them are involved in students' lives. This means that students have nearly constant access to their teachers, and that teachers serve as mentors as well as instructors. And because they know their students as neighbors, our faculty are better able to recognize problems, open up new challenges, and use their teaching to expand your spirit as well as your mind. And as you grow to know and admire these dedicated people, you'll want to work hard for them in return.

What type of landmines
are most common in your area?
MICHAEL: Some of the
most common mines in Manica Province include PMNs, PMD 6s, Gyatas
and Chinese Type 72s (Anti Personnel mines) and POMZ 2 and OZM 4
Anti Group mines.
POMZ 2 are heavy, cast iron stake mines, fired by a trip wire which
pulls a pin in the top of the mine. They are from the Soviet Union.
The OZM 4 is also from the USSR and is a bounding mine - the sort
that have a charge underneath them to propel them in the air before
they explode. They are triggered by trip wire or pressure.
PMNs are small, Soviet mines made of bakelite with a rubber pressure
plate on top. It is set off by a pressure of 8 to 25 kg and has
a charge of about 250gms of TNT. These are AP mines, whch is to
say they are not above surface shrapnel mines that will injure several
people, but cause casualties by the blast of the charge, which will
usually take the lower leg off.
PMD 6s are commonly called the Chinese shoe box mine, although they
were also made in the Soviet Union. They are simply a block of TNT
inside a hinged wooden box. When you step on the box (which is buried)
the lid pushes the pin out of the detonator using the bottom of
the box as an anvil. Again, there is a 200gm charge.
The Chinese Type 72 blast, (to give it its full name) is actually
Chinese! There are several Type 72s, including AT mines, and couple
of Chinese Type 72s, so it gets confusing. We found these in Sector
B of Dombe. They are small, 74gm charge, plastic mine with virtually
no metal in them, making them one of the most difficult to find.
Gyatas look a lot like PMNs, as they are a Hungarian copy of that
mine. They are a bit larger and take about 5kg to set them off.
This is obviously a layman's guide. There are much better technical
references if you want more details; please do not take the details
as completely accurate, we are not putting this forward as technical
Are some kinds harder (to make safe) than
MICHAEL: Yes, (short
answer)! We actually do not make any mines safe. We will usually
destroy them where they are, by putting explosives on them. Sometimes
they are booby trapped, which makes it dangerous to uncover them,
even to put the charge on top. Sometimes we will actually remove
the mine, when it is completely safe or when they are close to houses,
roads, etc, to a demolition pit and destroy them in one larger,
controlled explosion. On one occasion, a large field of Anti Tank
mines was found in Bosnia (over 100), and the mines were removed
to a pit. It was impossible to blow this large a quantity safely,
so they were burnt. TNT burns without exploding.
Have any of your friends
been affected by a landmine?
MICHAEL: Me, personally?
We have two deminers here who lost legs over the past seven years
in Mozambique, but I did not know them before the accidents, so
it is hard to say I was affected. They both still work for Mine-Tech.
I have an American friend, who stepped on a mine as a soldier in
the '70s, and he lost both his legs. He used his insurance money
and convalesence time to put himself through University (he was
a medic) and he is now a Medical Doctor in Texas somewhere. So I
have not been tragically affected at all, unlike many of the people
who live in mine and UXO threat areas. These people are usually
poorer to begin with, have no insurance etc, and casualties will
strike them very hard, whether injured or killed. Even the loss
of livestock has a significant negative impact (as they say) on
their lives.
How many people are working
on demining in your area?
MICHAEL: Mine-Tech
has about 30 people in Mozambique at the moment. The IHDD programme
at this moment has none, but by next month we will have over 20
people clearing and surveying in Mozambique, and last month, before
clearance in Dombe and Nhacolo finished, there were 18 people there.
I could not say how many people are working for all the various
organizations in Mozambique, but I would guess it to be around 300,
with more people in admin/management etc but not actually in the
How many landmines do you
think you have destroyed?
MICHAEL: We have destroyed
over 700 landmines in Mozambique and almost 2000 UXO. In Bosnia,
Mine-Tech destroyed 2980 mines last year, but less than 10 UXO.
Operations continue in both countries, so I cannot tell you at the
moment how many we have destroyed, but we do keep records. I just
do not have an up-to-date, running total.
How long does it take to
defuse one mine?
MICHAEL: Again, we
do not defuse mines, so it is not possible to say. Destroying mines
is actually a short, pleasant (satisfying) thing to do. Finding
them takes time, work and discipline.
Thank you for taking time
from your important work to help us understand more. Room 7, East
Narrogin Primary School, Western Australia
MICHAEL: By the way,
both my parents and my sister and her family live in Forrestdale,
Perth, just up the road from you.
Michael Laban

"Lots of folk had a tough time with the Heroic Icecrown dungeons when they were first released, especially Halls of Reflection. It's not that bizarre for non-raiders to want to scrape together what gear they can to be as prepared as possible."
There's being prepared, and there's being overgeared. If you trade in your valor points, you're getting gear that is better than the content you're facing in your example. Utilizing Valor Point gear to complete the Zul'Agains strikes me as moving backwards. You don't need the gear you'll be getting, and the challenge of completing it will be largely negated.
It becomes a situation where you're basically just farming for enchanting materials.

Customer Reviews of Canon Selphy CP900 Compact Photo Printer, Black - Mobile - 47 Second Photo - Wi-Fi
Wonderful little printer and works with iPhone6/13/2013
I bought this to print wirelessly from my iphone and ipad. There is some hiccup during setup but works flawlessly afterwards. I have tried earlier Selphy series which did not work with iphone and ipad but not this. Paper is also easy to get from local stores.
Canon printer4/16/2013
Pictures come out very sharp. Very easy to use and setup.
Cool product3/26/2013
This product is very cool. We use it at our office to make name badges for employees and it works perfectly for that purpose. It is very user friendly so if one person is out, its not a problem for someone to just jump in and take over.
Love it!1/2/2013
Works great!

Delicious and easy variation on a classic side dish. I like to make the shallot butter ahead of time and refrigerate. Later, while my roast/chicken/entree is cooking, I put the shallot mixture alongside it in the oven in an ovenproof dish. Then it is perfectly warm and ready to toss with the cooked green beans.
Green Beans with Caramelized-Shallot Butter
To make this dish ahead, plunge the beans into ice water after boiling, and drain and refrigerate up to a day ahead. Prepare and chill the shallot mixture up to 2 days ahead. To serve, place the beans and shallot mixture in a large microwave-safe bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave at HIGH 3 minutes or until heated. Toss well before serving.

Rasheed Wallace was in uniform Wednesday and very into the game. He was unable to play, but that could and should
change today as Wallace, for the first time, is expected to go through a full Knicks' practice, scrimmage and all. Wallace is making his return after two years off for personal reasons. Since early October, he's been working out on the side with Knicks' strength and training coaches to get him in shape for the NBA season. "On Friday it will be time to get him some action in terms of banging around a little bit and see where he goes from there," Mike Woodson said. "We'll evaluate him after Friday and see how he feels. Hopefully he'll continue to climb and be where we need him to be." Barring something unforeseen, Wallace is expected to be in the lineup for the regular-season opener in less than a week against the Nets. Wallace seemed to be in his old form when they played each other Wednesday at Nassau Coliseum. From the bench, he was talking to officials – probably disagreeing with some calls - yelling things to Nets players and encouraging his Knicks' teammates. He should be on the court today and should be able to help the Knicks in the regular season and playoffs.

Recipe from Good Food magazine, November 2007
Comments, questions and tips
A Big hit in our house my partner made this for me as i was ill with a flu bug and not in the mood to eat anything. This pan of soup lasted a day was soooo comforting and delicious the carrot & honey go together perfect, my partner didnt think it would be that great with so few ingredients but he is also raving about how good it tastes wouldnt change a thing about it :)
This recipe was a great success, even though I thought the two tsp of honey would not make a difference, it really did. The leeks probably gave it a little kick of a flavour in addition to the 800 gr of carrot flavour. A great hit, I did it with two and half litres of stock and the consistency was a little liquidy but it was good like that. My son ate four bowls, so I'll be making it regularly from no on.
I halved the ingredients to make soup for two people and used less stock than the recipe said (about a litre in total). Overall it was a beautiful rich soup. We had it with petit pain but it would undoubtedly be better with something salty, like cheese or bacon, to compliment the sweetness in the soup.
Yum, this is a really good basic soup that you can easily throw together from stuff you already have in the fridge. I didn't have any leeks so I used just one large white onion, which was fine. The honey addes a lovely sweetness. Reading the other comments, I used just 1.5l of Boulin veg stock which gave the right consistency. I added a big chunk of ginger instead of the chillis. I didn't blend too much because I like my soups quite chunky. This is a healthy alternative to the full of salt and sugar shop bought soups and I'll definately be making it again.

Radiohead / Atoms for Peace frontman Thom Yorke is lending a hand to fight world hunger by auctioning off an anti-poverty painting he created with longtime collaborator Stanley Donwood .
Business School for the Dead
, the painting was originally created in 2005 for the Make Poverty History campaign. It features a man with a dollar sign on his head and a bloody briefcase shaking hands with another man, flanked on both sides by praying skeletons and angels -- with Radiohead's bear logo as their faces -- holding a bow and arrow.
Yorke commented that he'd like a certain kind of person to buy his unique painting, tweeting , "Hope someone in the financial industry buys this, what a novelty to have a painting at auction ha!"
Business School for the Dead is expected to rake in between $5,500 and $6,200, with all proceeds going to the Trade Justice Movement, a British coalition of more than 80 organizations campaigning for changes to the rules and practices of world trade to end poverty and hunger.

Beijing, China (Sports Network) - The defending Olympic and world champion Russian pair of Anastasia Ermakova and Anastasia Davydova had another solid performance Tuesday in synchronized swimming by finishing first in the duet preliminary round of the duet fee routine.
The Russian duo incorporated several powerful lifts in their routine and swam disciplined as a unit, scoring a 49.5 ahead of Wednesday's final of the free routine.
That gave the pair 98.834 points, which was .916 ahead of the Spanish tandem of Andrea Fuentes and Gemma Mengual. Japan's Saho Harada and Emiko Suzuki were third at 96.750.
Christina Jones and Andrea Nott were fifth, 3.334 points behind the Russians.
"There's nothing like a first impression," said Jones. "We really wanted to come out and surprise everyone. We have upped our difficulty and increased our speed to show that we're a great duet."

If you follow the e-cigarette industry at all, you may be aware of the fact that V2 Cigs — the world's largest e-cigarette company by Web traffic — has recently made a number of major changes to its product lineup, website and business processes. V2 reached out to me after making these changes and asked if I'd like to see the new products they've been working on. You're going to see a number of V2 Cigs reviews on this website in the coming weeks, and I'd like to start by talking about an accessory that has me really excited. The new V2 Cigs portable charging case has to be just about the coolest e-cigarette accessory I've ever seen. If you're a V2 customer, read on; after seeing this V2 Cigs charging case review, I think you're going to agree that the new V2 PCC is a required upgrade.
What is the V2 PCC?
If you use a smaller electronic cigarette such as the V2 e-cigarette, a portable charging case is one of the best accessories you can own. Incredible advancements have been made in the world of e-cigarette batteries over the past couple of years. Where there was once a time when the most you could expect to get out of a small e-cigarette battery was around 40 puffs, V2 Cigs batteries easily exceed 100 puffs. The largest can even approach 300 puffs. When you leave the house, though, you're not likely to want to carry spare batteries or a charger, so there's always a chance that your e-cigarette battery might die before you're ready to go home and charge it back up. The V2 portable charging case — or PCC — is an accessory that holds your V2 Cigs battery and a few extra cartridges and can bring a dead battery back up to a full charge several times before the case itself needs to be recharged. Essentially, the V2 PCC gives you the ability to protect your electronic cigarette, keep a supply of spare cartridges handy and charge the battery when it dies.
What's Different About the New V2 Charging Case?
V2 has gone with a completely different design for its new 2012 portable charging case. The old case had a few serious problems. Subjectively speaking, I thought that it felt rather cheap. I also didn't like the display or the way that items stored in the case rattled around. V2′s largest e-cigarette battery didn't fit in the old charging case. To make matters worse, if you left your battery in the V2 PCC after the charge cycle was complete, the battery would actually begin to discharge. If you waited long enough, you might actually remove the battery only to find that you needed to charge it again.
The new V2 charging case has none of these problems. First, it has a radical new design concept; instead of resembling a traditional cigarette case, it looks something like a sliding smartphone with a beautiful glossy finish and a smooth spring-loaded action. It looks and feels absolutely wonderful. On the back of the case are two sets of LED indicators that clearly show the current charge level of the V2 PCC's internal battery and the connected e-cigarette battery. The new V2 PCC has a larger internal battery with a capacity of 1200 mAh or 2300 mAh if you buy the XL charging case, which costs an extra $10 and is required for charging the longest V2 e-cigarette battery. Yes, people who prefer the long V2 battery can finally enjoy the ability to charge on the go.
Using the V2 PCC
To use the V2 PCC, simply place your thumb on the top cover and push gently to slide the case open. Store up to three refill cartridges in the top chamber and screw a battery into the threading in the bottom chamber. Flip the battery down, close the case and hold the button on the bottom until the red light starts to blink. After a moment, some of the red LEDs next to the word "Cig" may go solid if the battery still has a bit of a charge, and one of the LEDs will flash. When all five LEDs go solid, the battery is charged and ready to use.
Maintaining the V2 PCC is equally simple; just press the button briefly any time you want to check the internal battery's charge level. If you're down to one LED, it's time to recharge the case by connecting it to your computer's USB port or a USB wall charger. When all five blue LEDs are solid, the case is fully charged.
New V2 Charging Case: The Bottom Line
I've never been much of a fan of e-cigarette charging cases. So often, they're designed to look like traditional cigarette packs or cases, and that's a very inefficient use of space as e-smokers have almost nothing to carry around compared to cigarette smokers. The new V2 PCC does away with that convention by being only large enough to hold a battery, a few cartridges and its own internal battery. I love the sleek, modern design and the internal battery has a much higher capacity than what you'll find in any competing product. If you're about to become a V2 Cigs customer, I highly recommend selecting a starter kit that includes this case. If you already own a V2 e-cigarette, the new V2 PCC is definitely an upgrade you need to consider.
