Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg cracked two ribs in June, the SCOTUS's busiest month. And she worked through it because I don't know if you've heard, but she's a total fucking bad ass.
That new Romney ad about President Obama and welfare, the one that's full of dogwhistle racism? Even Newt Gingrich, the man who only tells the truth twice a year, admits that it's full of it.
Speaking of Mitt Romney, it looks like Bain may have some ties to El Salvador death squads. Whoops.
Japan commemorates the 67th anniversary of the U.S. Atomic bombing of Nagasaki, which killed 80,000 people. Tomihisa Taue, the city's mayor reminded the audience gathered at a peace park that 19,000 nuclear weapons still exist in the world, saying. "In order for ours to be the last city attacked by this technology, the use of nuclear weapons and their development must be clearly prohibited."
The U.S. and Vietnam launch a clean up of residue of Agent Orange, a toxic herbicide used by the U.S. during the Vietnam war to kill the vegetation used as cover by guerillas. It has been linked to cancer, diabetes and birth defects. It's a little too little, too late, but it's better than nothing.

Jon's Thoughts on Those Veterans Who Never Got a 'Welcome Home'
Today is Veteran's Day and we honor those brave men and women who fought and will continue to fight for this country. YouTube is full of videos of returning soldiers who wanted to surprise their friends and families. We have seen huge welcome home celebrations across the country for the last several years and yet, I am still very bothered by the fact that our troops returning from Vietnam and Southeast Asia were never welcomed home with open arms the way they are today. When I was 12 years old, we had a neighbor who fought over there for two years. He was lucky though, because he came home alive and in one piece. When we learned he was coming home, we were excited about welcoming our friend home and looking forward to those street baseball games that he enjoyed with us before being deployed.
The day he came home, his house was surrounded by people who yelled insults to his family, called him despicable names like he was the worst person ever. I remember being very upset, crying and asking my dad why those people were so mad at him. My dad couldn't really answer that question, he didn't know how to and yes, tears were rolling down my dad's face as well.
I just couldn't understand and still don't understand why those men and women were never thanked for their service and appreciated for what they were trying to do. We moved away a few years later and I don't know what ever happened to Darryl. Wherever you are Darryl, please know that day still haunts me. I was proud of you then and I'm still proud of you today…thank you for service.
In the late 80s, I had another encounter with Vietnam Vets that I will never forget. It was during the first Persian Gulf war, Desert Storm and the first of wave troops returning home came in to the Marine Base at El Toro, California. I was working for a country radio station in that part of California and our program director suggested we broadcast live to help welcome the troops home.
I thought that was a great idea and I volunteered to do the broadcast and my program director went along with me. While waiting for their plane to arrive, I looked off to my left and noticed a group of about 100 men on the civilian side of the fence. I walked over and asked them their story.
The leader of the group was wearing an Army Rangers jacket and told me they were Vietnam Veterans who wanted to make sure they were there to welcome the troops home…something that nobody did for them. They weren't sure if the returning troops would encounter the same negativity that they did….they simply wanted the troops to see some friendly, welcoming faces.
Their story touched me so much I put them on the air and one of the base commanders at El Toro M.C.A.S. happened to be listening. He was a Vietnam Vet himself and made his way to the back gate. After verifying who the men were, he invited them all in to be front and center when the troops arrived.
The plane arrived, stopped at the designated point on the tarmac. The door opened, the contingent of Vietnam Vets sprang to attention in perfect formation and saluted the just returned troops as they exited the plane. It was quite a sight as grown men embraced each other and cried.
To the troops who served in Southeast Asia and Vietnam…..Welcome home and thank you for your service. We owe you a debt we will never be able to repay other than to say thank you and God bless each and every one of you.

This is a recent photograph and one where the school's authorities have not taken action yet. Remember this kid's name and repost this picture.
The Neanderthal trash who are bullying him deserve to have this picture plastered all over the Internet for prospective college admission offices to see so their career pinnacle can be asking me which kind of soup I want at Olive Garden.

Roofing Contractor Referral - San Jose
Thanks in part to a recent spate of Santa Ana winds, the roof our our club house as well as the roofs of some of our condominiums are in need of repair. Consequently, as a recently elected member of our condominium board's "Architectural Control Committee", I am seeking referrals for San Jose roofing contractors. We require that such professionals be licensed and bonded and be capable of working on a medium size project which includes several different owners. Therefore, if anyone associated with this forum has any referrals for roofing contractors in the San Jose area, please let me know. Thank you!

Via Time, thanks to reader and friend Dan R:
The [Culture] ministry has called on tattoo parlors across Thailand to stop drawing Buddha on people's bodies because his image is sacred and has asked provincial governors to inspect parlors to assure that they are not defying the decree.
More here. Good thing they're not keeping people out for already having them, or we'd know a lot of ineligible folks.
wonder what the Buddha would say about this? Right livelihood doesn't mention about images. I don't understand what the problem is, 'cept its a 'human' problem and its all relative. The Thai monks at a local temple are punished if they accidentally touch a woman. they will obviously shy away. In contrast Tibetan monks and lamas, and the Rinpoche gladly shake your hand and touch foreheads where appropriate. these experiences were what lead me to choose Mahayana and a Tibetan Buddhist temple 3000 miles away when i took refuge.

The qualification where you are 6 races with a light wind predominantly from the Northeast; young Edoardo and Francesco started with a first place followed by the always placings in the top 10, bringing the second day and the third the blue bib red bib, finishing the qualification in the thirteenth position.

In the final stage, the Edoardo and Francesco Filippo and Luigi as they entered the Gold group, while Giancarlo and Max were in the Silver Group. By this stage the wind conditions have not improved, rather they are a bit 'worse: they have been completed only four trials, one of them with the wind very variable and plug. During the last day of racing everything has been deleted due to lack of wind and the presence of heavy rain.
With a total of ten trials Edoardo and Francesco have ended 22 first Italian crew and third in the world as Under 16, while Philip and Louis 38, and Giancarlo Max 12 in the Silver Fleet. For all the three was their first in the world during the Class 420 which were marked by teamwork, commitment and determination, not only this week but also during their preparation they have done in the past eight months together with the whole team of the Yacht Club San Remo.
The next event for the young olds, Edo and Fra, will be at the Junior European Championship in Poland,.

The inelastic quasi-static response of sandwich structures to local loading
Koissin, Vitaly and Shipsha, Andrey and Rizov, Victor (2004) The inelastic quasi-static response of sandwich structures to local loading. Composite Structures, 64 (2). pp. 129-138. ISSN 0263-8223
Restricted to UT campus only: Request a copy
|The paper addresses the inelastic quasi-static response of sandwich beams and panels with foam core to localized loads. The plane and axisymmetric formulations for local indentation or local low-velocity impact by a rigid body are considered; no overall bending is assumed. The governing equations for the face are derived using the Kirchhoff–Love static theory under the assumption that the core crushing follows elastic–ideally-plastic behavior. Analytical solutions are constructed on the basis of the principle of minimum work. The solutions allow predicting the face deflection, size of crushed core area and contact force. In general, the solutions are in good agreement with experimental data and finite element analysis.

If you are getting stuck trying to move through the levels of EQ2, it is definitely time to get some help. There are EverQuest2 leveling guides for every level of this game that can walk you through the process of easily progressing through the game with a lot less effort. You can look at EQ2 leveling guides as maps that come with a complete set of instructions on how to get from point a to point b. Many players use these guides to help them cut through the tedium of going level by level in this game.
Start a new character, I suggest someone with an average to great "True" AoE Ability. Encounter AoE works, but will greatly slow the process down. Warden is beast for this due to Thorns + pre-hots. Warlock works very well also, but it helps having a friend heal you. Click Here to Read More of the Powerleveing Guide for Everquest 2!
As you progress through the levels, your character becomes more powerful. However, getting there can be pretty difficult. New players can use EverQuest 2 leveling guides to quickly gain strength for their character so that they can compete against more experienced opponents. If you try to do this on your own, without the assistance of an EQ2 leveling guide, be prepared to spend hours if not weeks completing the necessary tasks to get to the next level.
Although this game is very rewarding, it can be very challenging in spots. That is where EverQuest 2 leveling guides come in to help you out. Even advanced players need these guides as they get to the higher levels and it becomes more difficult to progress rapidly. Sure, you can spend hours of your time on a single quest, but if you use an EQ2 leveling guide, you'll be able to spend more time actually having fun instead of grinding away.

"There is a place where the sidewalk ends And before the street begins, And there the grass grows soft and white, And there the sun burns crimson bright, And there the moon-bird rests from his flight To cool in the peppermint wind. Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black And the dark street winds and bends. Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow, And watch where the chalk-white arrows go To the place where the sidewalk ends. Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow, And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go, For the children, they mark, and the children, they know The place where the sidewalk ends." #ShelSilverstein #WhereTheSidewalkEnds #poems #poetry #streetart #arcata #humboldt (spot&shot by @branka256) (Taken with instagram)

Family Musical Theatre is putting Guys and Dolls through its paces at the Ivory Theatre in South St. Louis. This quintessential bit of musical theatre has been given a slightly uneven, but still entertaining outing by Directors Mike Hesser and Alison Driscoll, and Musical Director Michael Blackwood.
It has singing and dancing and multiple characters and multiple scenes, but calling A.D. The Musical a musical doesn't make it a musical. It's more like a church pageant, and as Judy Newmark pointed out in her very generous review in the Post-Dispatch, it probably would be more comfortable, and raise fewer misplaced expectations, in a church rather than in the Ivory Theatre, where it currently resides through Sunday afternoon, April 17.

Guestbook comments from the owner
his Villa is truly amazing, it has everything that you could need for a perfect family holiday. We went away with extended family and with 7 children age range from 3yrs up to 12yrs and not once in the 10 days that we were there did any of the children complain that they were bored there was just so much to do to in the villa to keep all the children entertained. The high spec finish to the inside of the villa was outstanding and large outdoor pool / space was fantastic. We will definitely be back again soon. Thanks to Elaine for all of your help & advise!

An open letter to a new VC analyst
The following are my thoughts on sourcing deals after having worked at USV for (gasp!) just over a year now. I will focus on run my own process, separate from the day-to-day collaboration with other members of the investment team. While every firm is different, there is hopefully something in here that will be useful. The underlying lesson is to try and identify the weak spots in your firm's process and then fill them.
There are two types of sourcing: reactive and proactive. Reactive sourcing is fairly self-evident: troll AngelList, TechCrunch, Hacker News, VCDelta, and any other source that fits your sector; go to events, such as demo days, to meet promising companies; take as many (reasonable sounding) pitches as walk in the door; and, of course, VC is a networking business, so meet as many people as possible.1 Most of the value here is adding bandwidth to your firm.
My lesson from this approach is that building companies takes longer than expected. As an analyst, I started off talking to companies that were not mature enough for an investment from us. While these are all teams that would otherwise not have been in contact with someone else on our investment team, it has taken much longer than I expected to be able to bring these companies to the partnership. And, unlike a partner, I will have a much shorter life at the firm, so I unfortunately can't be as patient.
Proactive sourcing is much more interesting. These are initiatives you can come up with, an intellectual stance for why should something should exist (and it might not yet!). Come up with an idea or a sector and dive in. If that thesis resonates with the firm, go deeper until you find a company that fits. At least at USV, the partners talk about their best deals coming out of such work. As an example, I've been fairly deep into Quantified Self for the past month.
Also try to identify a signal that is currently being missed by your firm. After testing out various analytics projects, I couldn't find it became clear that tracking pageviews, app downloads, etc. at our stage of investing was not meaningful enough. But since Series A is typically the second round of publicly disclosed funding, we're in the perfect position to use prior VC investment as a signal for good companies. And on top of this I can layer analytics. For example, given the size of the team and the date and amount raised previously it's quite easy to estimate when they'll be raising their next round. Once I get a handle on this signal, I should be able to at least get a quick look at every company that otherwise wouldn't walk in the door.
My 10% project for the past few months has been to build a Django app that integrates with CrunchBase, AngelList and VCDelta. The code for the entire project will remain private, but I'll start sharing snippets to help others build their own tools. The first is an update of a Python library for the CrunchBase API.
I highly recommend breakfast meetings every day. Let's you work through lunch and stay focused. ↩

- Studio: Lionsgate
- Release Date: Mar 23, 2012
- Starring: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the evil Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. A twisted punishment for a past uprising and an ongoing government intimidation tactic, The Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which "Tributes" must fight with one another until one survivor remains.
Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she's ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. (Lionsgate)… Expand

As tough-spirited as fans would hope for - and exciting and thought-provoking in a way few adventure dramas ever are.
There's action here, too, and a great deal of vitality that feels true both to the spirit of Collins' book and to the idea of movie entertainment as it exists.
What's remarkable is the lack of cheese. Tacky effects, corny dialogue and creaky performances are all shown the door. We repeat: not the new "Twilight".
An effective entertainment, and Jennifer Lawrence is strong and convincing in the central role. But the film leapfrogs obvious questions in its path, and avoids the opportunities sci-fi provides for social criticism.
Lawrence is a tremendous talent, and she is what makes The Hunger Games ultimately worth spending time with. She doesn't elevate the film to the heights to which one might have wanted, but she takes it a lot higher than it would have otherwise risen.
If the series's legions of fans miss a detail here or a sub-plot there, they'll still recognize its bones and sinew, especially in Jennifer Lawrence's eagle-eyed heroine Katniss Everdeen.
In The Hunger Games it's both a feast of cheesy spectacle and a famine of genuine feeling, except for the powerful - and touchingly vulnerable - presence of Jennifer Lawrence.

Mar 23, 2012To me the Hunger Games was sort of like Lord of the Flies meets Mad Max. Has anyone read Lord of the Flies or seen Mad Max with Mel Gibson? There was also a Japanese movie called Battle Royale that came out a few years ago but was never released in the US.… Expand
May 10, 2012What a film this was. Every second, something was going on, the structure of how this film was made is incredible. I was gripping my chair in the cinema as you never know what was going to be flung at you at any second. The traps were especially good, like the tracker jackers and those wild beast things near the end of the movie ( including one jump scene that sent my popcorn flying!!!). 10 OUT A 10!!… Expand
Apr 20, 2012I'm writing this review as a person who has yet to read the books yet. Watching the movie without any knowledge of what you are going into is o.k, (The story is simple enough to follow), but when i watched it, i had know idea who was doing what and who's killing who. I only barely remembered 2 or 3 of the characters because of the lack character development. The movie itself is fast paced and if you've read the books, would probably leave you amazed. The story is solid, acting is solid and pretty everything is well done. I only wished that the character's could be more fleshed out in the movie. I would recommend this movie to pretty much anyone because its probably one of the best movies to be released this year.… Expand
Mar 26, 2012This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To those who realize that this movie is supposed to be part of a series of films, this movie won't be too surprising in many ways. The premise presents itself in a clear light, and almost everything about the movie, from the acting, to the costume design, to the writing, tries to paint everything as obvious as possible (We get it, the rich have no connection to the poor, the poor hate the rich, no human wants to embrace the concept of death/murder, and self-preservation is an impeccably strong mindset). Luckily, everything from the acting to the costume design to the writing is also well done. The pacing of the movie manages to move well, even through the slower parts of the film, and actually makes you interested in some characters (Even if the movie makes it apparent that some characters WILL die before the end, going as far to give some characters attributes, emotions, personal connections and an overall unique style, yet never giving them a name.)
Do know this: the movie is good. I'll just say that now before I continue. I have a bit of a pessimistic view on things, and the next paragraph will be a bit of a downer.
Maybe it's me, but having the movie focus so heavily on one character removes the tension of the entire movie ("Oh, only one entrant will survive? I wonder if it's gonna be the protagonist who gets 90% of the screen time..."). The movie then tries to create some tension by putting the protagonist in peril every two seconds, only to be saved by, usually not by her own skill, but the incredible stupidity of everyone else involved. The movie even goes so far as damn near showing that almost EVERY entrant is more skilled than her, yet every opportunity someone has to easily murder her, passes up the chance out of pity, fear, alternative opportunity, or quite simply no good reason. There's even a moment where she's stuck up a tree with a leg injury and nowhere to go, and the four well-equipped and skilled people hunting her decide to just go to sleep instead of the plethora of ideas that would have safely ended in her death (Like climbing an adjacent tree and shooting her with an arrow, or blowing up the tree, or burning the tree). it also seems like many entrants outside the main ones are simply there to demonstrate things to the protagonist. All of these things are well and fine if the actual hunger games were only a part of the story, but no, the movie pretty much ends right afterward. The main meat of the story was too obvious, and suffered too large a number of logical failures.… Expand
Aug 7, 2012Based on the book by Suzanne Collins, the hunger games movie is a good tribute that will probably leave fans delighted. Though not as exciting as the book, it is still worth seeing.… Expand
Apr 1, 2012Sure, blurring the violence with shaky-cam helps to obtain the PG13 but I can't go along with the blatant choice to make a purported $78M production look like amateur hour by using handheld cameras throughout. I don't care if it was an "artistic" choice or not. This is a science fiction movie and no one is fooled that it is a documentary or an attempt at realism a la Blair Witch Project. A simple conversation between two people in a room involves snap pans, quick cuts, even a few focus deficient zooms. I would say it looks like the kids from Super 8 made it but JJ Abrams knew that even seventies kids were smart enough to use a tripod.… Expand
Apr 14, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's hard for me to understand why so many people thought this movie was well done. I read the first book (mainly because my girlfriend really wanted me to, especially before the movie) and I have to say I'm really glad I did. Although, even if I didn't read the book, the movie is horrible regardless. My favorite character Haymitch never did any of the things that I liked him for in the book. I never cared for Rue as I did in the book, quite frankly I did not care when she died in the movie. When the familiars (the name escapes me) came on screen of the dead tributes, they were awkward dog creatures that did not resemble their former selves. Thresh never did anything. The casting was off as certain characters did not look like how they were portrayed in the book (I know it cannot be perfect but you can make it close). The chariot scene with the fire dress was uninspired. Cinna had no emotion and seemed to really not care for Katniss. The shotty camera work that just shook every time an action scene happened. The fact that Pita didn't lose a leg. This movie is just wrong. It's just bad. Aside from completely ruining the book, the movie alone just is not good. Nothing about it was entertaining especially since I've read the book and know that everything was done so horribly wrong. My girlfriend who is a huge fan of the series (collects everything she can) also hated the movie. We were both sitting in the theater, dumbstruck as people clapped and cheered for a movie that destroyed what the books created. In retrospect I'm sure more than half the people in the movie hadn't read the books but the fact that the author stood behind this, I'll be sure to skip out on anything she does again. Not to mention the fact that I saw Battle Royale which came out before the Hunger Games books and movie and watching that you realize how much is ripped off. Right down to where they have two winners. I'm rambling now but geez, looking up at 831 positive reviews, really? Gah!… Expand

Remember Sleez, the Apokaliptian sex dwarf who took over Superman's mind and forced him to star in a porno? He's back, and this time they're letting him hang out around children.
After his supposed death in Metropolis' sewers, Sleez ended up in Project Cadmus, an underground government installation dedicated to cloning people and making outrageous shit (it's probably like 90% the country's annual budget). Sleez takes control of the five directors of Project Cadmus and makes them create younger clones of themselves to be used as spare parts. The clones escape, however, and start doing exactly what the Cadmus directors did when they were kids: selling newspapers and getting into shenanigans as The Newsboy Legion.
Superman soon stumbles across those kids and their protector, the Captain America self-ripoff (same creators) known as The Guardian, also a clone of the original since he should be like 80 by now. Guardian gives Superman a good run for his money, but eventually they all go back to Project Cadmus and Superman confronts Sleez. Sleez disintegrates into a cloud of depravity and the Cadmus directors go back to normal, except they're now left with a bunch of rowdy young versions of themselves to take care of.
Bonus Story!
There's also a wonderfully awkward short tale about the Metropolis Special Crimes Unit. After Dan "Terrible" Turpin gets hurt fighting a supervillain, Captain Maggie Sawyer visits him on the hospital every day and Turpin starts thinking she's into him. As soon as he's out of the hospital, Turpin goes to Maggie's apartment and proposes to her, even after meeting the attractive female "roommate" with whom Maggie was sunbathing naked on the roof. Upon learning that Maggie is (gasp!) a lesbian, Turpin feels embarrassed and tries to quit the MSCU, but Maggie goes "Cut that out, ya big goof!" and they run off to fight another supervillain.
This annual re-introduces in one issue all the crazy concepts Jack Kirby invented during his entire run on Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen in the '70s: Project Cadmus, the Newsboy clones, Dubbilex (a DNAlien with mind powers), the Haires (super-smart hippies who live in a city on wheels), the tree city of Habitat, the Whiz Wagon (the Newsboys' flying car) and so on. We're gonna be seeing a lot of this merry gang in the future.
In the second story, we see Maggie's girlfriend Toby Raines again. Also, the generic villain that puts Turpin in the hospital, a guy with an arm cannon called Barrage, will eventually be back to seek revenge (shouldn't it be the other way around?).
Besides the whole "using clones for spare parts" thing and how it echoes Krypton's doomed history (Superman even comments on that), the existence of The Guardian sets an important precedent: It is possible to clone a person and transfer their consciousness into the younger body. That's gonna come in pretty handy later.

Matchup: Dolphins at Patriots
1 p.m. ET, Sunday at Gillette Stadium
Published: Oct 24, 2013
» Get updates via Sportsmail
Each week Fantasy Source experts break down every NFL matchup from a fantasy perspective. Our tiered star ratings tell you how strongly we feel about each player's chances for a breakout performance. We analyze players based on how well their opponent defends that position and other factors such as statistical trends, playing-time potential and the talent level of the players and the teams involved.
5-Star Players
Rob Gronkowski, TE, Patriots. Gronk returned with a bang last week, catching eight of 17 targets for 114 yards -- all team highs. He might lose some targets to Danny Amendola (concussion) this week, but he's still a must-start against a Miami defense that was torched for 100 yards earlier this year by Gronk's only TE comp, Jimmy Graham.
Stephen Gostkowski, K, Patriots. Gostkowski has had at least two field-goal attempts in every game this year, and he leads the league in both makes (18) and attempts (19). He's one of the few "must-start" kickers.
4-Star Players
Mike Wallace, WR, Dolphins. Fantasy owners are frustrated with Wallace, but he's had 26 targets and averaged 9.65 fantasy points over his past two games. The former is a very solid number, and the latter is at least WR3 worthy. The Pats are allowing just 18 fantasy points per game (FPPG) to wide receivers (24th), but that comes with 17 pass plays of 25-plus yards. Wallace is still a threat to break big plays, and with top Pats' CB Aqib Talib (hip) at least limited, Wallace is worthy of starting in all formats.
Stevan Ridley, RB, Patriots. Ridley has scored two games in a row, and the Dolphins have allowed at least one touchdown to a running back in all but their opening game. Ridley isn't exactly the unquestioned "lead back" just yet, but he's led the team in carries each of the past two weeks. Keep him in your lineups.
3-Star Players
Caleb Sturgis, K, Dolphins. After starting the season by hitting all seven of his field-goal attempts, Sturgis has missed one in each of his past two games. Both were 50-plus yarders, though, so there's no reason to get too discouraged. The Pats are allowing the 24th-most FPPG to Ks (7.57), so Sturgis loses some potential value there. Fortunately, he still has a big leg and plays on a decent offense, so if you need him to start, he can likely do the job.
Tom Brady, QB, Patriots. Brady played poorly last week despite the return of Gronkowski; this week, it looks like he'll be getting Amendola (concussion) back. Even though Brady hasn't played with this entire group of pass-catchers before, he's played with them all separately, and the upgrade in talent should be nothing but a net positive for his bottom line. The Dolphins are stingy against quarterbacks, holding everyone other than Drew Brees to an average of 13.78 fantasy points. With the way Brady has been playing lately, he's only a borderline starter in this matchup. But in most cases, he's worth the risk since he's getting his top options back.
Danny Amendola, WR, Patriots. Amendola missed last week's game after suffering a concussion, but his groin injury from earlier this season appears to have healed. In his two full games this year, he averaged 11.5 targets -- which will almost certainly come down with Gronk back -- but it shows that Brady has a lot of trust in the elusive slot receiver. The Dolphins allow the third-fewest FPPG to WRs (15.5), so this is a tough matchup for Amendola, but he's still at least a WR3, especially in PPR leagues.
Julian Edelman, WR, Patriots. The targets have been there for Edelman all year (at least seven every week), but that might change with both Gronk and Amendola back. Of course, there's no guarantee either of those injury-prone pass-catchers finishes the game. Either way, Edelman should still see the field a lot, and he's one of Brady's other trustworthy targets. Expect him to work underneath of Miami's physical corners and just take what the defense gives him, accumulating yards -- and WR3 value -- along the way.
Patriots defense/special teams. The Patriots have the ninth-ranked fantasy D/ST this season, and over the past four weeks, they've averaged the 11th-most FPPG (8.25). This is a solid unit across the board, and with the Dolphins allowing nine FPPG (eighth most), it should continue to post stellar numbers.
2-Star Players
Ryan Tannehill, QB, Dolphins. Tannehill had his best game of the season last week, but it still only resulted in 20.3 fantasy points. He rarely scrambles, putting up less than eight rushing yards in all but one game. Until he does that, his fantasy upside will be capped. The Pats allowed 22.5 fantasy points to Geno Smith last week, and Tannehill actually plays somewhat similar to Smith, so a repeat performance is possible. Overall, New England has played well against QBs (15.9 FPPG, 26th), so Tannehill isn't a recommended play.
Charles Clay, TE, Dolphins. Clay has scored in three straight games and four of six overall this year. His three targets last week were a season low, but he remains a big part of Miami's offense, particularly in the red zone. Only Tony Gonzalez had more than 6.1 fantasy points against New England this year, so this is another tough matchup for Clay. But once you get past the top five or six TEs, it's tough to distinguish between the rest. Clay, who ranks ninth overall in TE fantasy points, is as good as any "second-tier" option, and he remains a viable starting option in all formats.
1-Star Players
Daniel Thomas, RB, Dolphins. Thomas outcarried (12 to nine) and outgained (60 yards to 43) Lamar Miller last week, which would seem to give him an edge heading into this game. The Pats are 16th in FPPG allowed to RBs (16.9), so this is a pretty neutral matchup. That's fine for a lead back in a one-back offense, but even the "lead" back in a two-back offense will be a risky flex. Given Thomas' poor play earlier in the season, he's extra risky.
Lamar Miller, RB, Dolphins. Miller is always capable of a big play, but until he's getting the bulk of the carries, he'll remain a risky flex like Thomas. He has a little more upside despite Thomas potentially getting more carries, but start Miller at your own peril.
Brian Hartline, WR, Dolphins. Hartline's 11 targets last week were his most since Week 1, but he turned that into just 6.9 fantasy points. He remains a good bet for at least six fantasy points (he's done it in every game but one), but with the Pats' solid pass defense, he'll likely need a touchdown to do much more. That's a lot to ask, so consider Hartline a borderline WR3.
Dolphins defense/special teams. The Dolphins haven't done much all season, and the Pats haven't allowed much outside of a couple defensive scores. Leave Miami on your bench.
Brandon Bolden, RB, Patriots. Bolden continues to have a role in the Pats' offense, getting just three fewer carries than Ridley last week and receiving three targets out of the backfield. The Dolphins' struggles against RBs includes allowing 61 receiving yards per game (second most). Darren Sproles did a lot of that damage, but Miami is still vulnerable against anyone. Bolden is a capable flex
Kenbrell Thompkins, WR, Patriots. Thompkins loses the most value with Amendola back. Both he and Aaron Dobson could get loose for a big gainer if Miami is forced to focus its defensive attention over the middle, but both rookies make for risky plays even in a bye-heavy week.

Just under 25 minutes left at the time of this posting.
Is this the same I/O bit that was involved in the signature scandal with Malwarebytes. »www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2355884,00.asp
said by PC Mag :Scandalous SignaturesDuring the course of this review I lost contact with IObitThe company's representatives simply stopped answering my e-mails. On investigation I learned that Malwarebytes had accused IObit of stealing malware signatures. Malwarebytes' case seemed airtight to me. Malwarebytes created a unique non-malicious test file in their labs and added a signature for that file to its database. Within days that same signature turned up in IObit's database.On returning from its media blackout IObit denied this "calumniation" (their word) in an impressive polemic. Malwarebytes fired back a rebuttal. Who's right? I lean toward believing Malwarebytes, but it really doesn't matter. Wherever IObit got its signatures, my test results show that the company didn't put them to good use.
Yes!....One and the same ......Not thought of as well here either...

Total duration: 1 minutes 28 seconds
'Outstandingly well sung and played, equally well recorded, and highly recommendable to all lovers of fine songs and fine singing' (BBC Music Magazine)
'This is a highly successful follow-up to Gerald Finley and Julius Drake's first Ives recital from 2005. Here there is the same sort of mix, from familiar songs such as
The Circus Band
to an early requiem for the family cat and the intriguing title song,
Romanzo, di Central Park
, with its obbligato violin part atmospherically played by Magnus Johnston. Finley is his usual charismatic self, at home as much in the hymnody as the parody, and he is careful not to over-sentimentalise the more homely numbers while injecting pathos into the war songs. Drake projects Ives's often complex accompaniments with clarity and style' (The Daily Telegraph)
'The programme has been selected and sequenced with care … the booklet includes not just texts but also comments by Calum MacDonald about every single song. Hyperion always gets these things right; even the cover art is a bull's-eye. Finley and Drake give no cause for complaint either … the engineers have done their work well. Finley and Drake are perfectly balanced and they perofrm in an environment of intimate warmth' (International Record Review)
'Finley is a wonderfully assured interpreter … perfectly registering their switchback changes of mood and presenting their occasional lapses into sentimentality with total conviction. More than any other performers on disc, Finley and Drake establish these songs, with all their quirks and flights of fantasy, among the most important of the 20th century in any language' (The Guardian)
'Gerald Finley has everything and more in his darkly full-bodied voice to match the often formidable technical and expressive requirements of Ives's songbook—reinforced by Drake's elastic, expressive piano … this is a must-buy album' (The Times)
'The variety of songs recorded here is extraordinary … Gerald Finley's warm baritone sits right inside Ives's soundworld, while Drake refuses to be fazed by the idealistic piano writing' (Classic FM Magazine)
'Listening to a collection such as this reveals genuine delights of phrase and harmony. These are, by and large, not songs for 'showy' singers, yet several of the numbers more citational of popular song do demand some verbal panache, which the Canadian bass-baritone can certainly supply, along with fine-honed dynamic control and a warm, solidly delineated tone … Drake, very sensitive as to tempo and mood, proves willing to haul out the trombones when needed' (Opera News)
'It's the best kind of fun. The astonishing range Ives exhibits in the 30 songs on the disc—some comic, others serious—is astonishing. Finley, in even better voice than on the Barber CD, and Drake, relishing Ives' complexities, dig deep into them all' (Bay Area Reporter, USA)
'Gerald Finley's second disc of Ives songs is every bit as wonderful as the first. Finley is the perfect song recitalist … he can sound dreamy, tender, raucous, heroic, and serene, all without ever disfiguring his timbre or letting the pitch waver. Julius Drake offers accompaniments that are as perfect and knowing as the singing, and the engineering couldn't be better … this is magnificent—vocal recitals don't come any better' (ClassicsToday.com)

, as with many of the songs composed to Ives's own text, is one of his meditations on the power of old tunes remembered, deftly woven out of song-quotations. In a footnote to
114 Songs
Ives wrote: 'Though there is little danger of it, it is hoped that this song will not be taken seriously, or sung, at least, in public.'

Seed treatment solutions for oilseed rape/canola
Oilseed rape was among the earliest plants cultivated by mankind – thousands of years ago in Asia, in medieval times in Europe. Today, oilseed rape is the world's third largest source of vegetable oil after soybeans and palm, and Bayer CropScience is behind many of the innovations that are taking this crop to new heights.
Rapeseed oil as a lubricant
The onset of the Industrial Revolution changed the course of oilseed rape cropping forever. The advent of the steam engine brought the need for effective and economical lubricants to grease the wheels of the great iron horses, and machinists soon discovered the superior characteristics of rapeseed oil for this purpose. During World War II, its use as a lubricant for steam-powered ships drove huge demand for rapeseed oil, and production expanded accordingly.
Oilseed rape for food and feed
Only in the past few decades has oilseed rape become a major global commodity after new varieties with improved oil and meal characteristics were developed in the mid-1970s. Known as "00" or "double low", these varieties were low in euricic acid and glucosinolate and thus enabled more widespread uses oilseed rape in food and feed. Today, these improved varieties are grown worldwide, but primarily in China, Canada, India, Europe, and Australia.
Bayer's broad portfolio
Bayer is a leading global supplier to the canola and oilseed rape industry, with a robust portfolio of integrated crop solutions to improve canola production. This portfolio includes high-yielding hybrids and open-pollinated seed varieties, market-driven traits and crop protection products – both seed-applied and sprayed – that play a crucial role on the farm. "There has been a gradual and steady increase in our canola yields over the past decade thanks to products like Bayer's InVigor and Prosper EverGol," says Pete Sprunger, an InVigor hybrid canola producer from Alberta, Canada. "The genetics of canola are getting better every year, which adds value to our business. Canola is a primary cash crop providing us with a good return on dollars per acre spent."
Protecting premium seed
With the dominance of specialty canola varieties and hybrids today, farmers make it a key priority to protect their premium seed from disease and insect damage right from the start. "Bayer SeedGrowth products and services play a vital role in protecting farmers' major investment in seed, ensuring a healthy crop and enabling high-yielding genetics to perform to their full potential," says Oliver Guth, Bayer SeedGrowth's Global Oilseeds Segment Manager. "That's why Bayer has long put a great emphasis on innovations in this field."

About this design:
The copper toggle clasp started this design. I thought the lapidalite paired nicely with it, then I found the lampwork glass beads in my stash.
Components:Lapidalite Jasper, Autumn agate, Lampwork glass, czech fire polished Autumn day rondelles, unkown yellow tiny round gems, copper clasp, ridged rounds, and tubed spacer, sari silk.

What a beautiful design Wanda! I like your placement of the toggle with the touch of silk below. The lapidalite and lampwork beads are gorgeous with this.
Ooooooo! This is GORGEOUS,! I want!!! It would really go with that purple shirt I may have mentioned before Great design and fabulous colors!
All of your recent designs are wonderful…but this one is my fav! Loving the color and that toggle is perfect!
Thank you Angela, Gail and Needs4Beadz for the lovely comments!
I've had that toggle for awhile now. When I was digging around in my stash I found the lampwork beads, and knew that they would be perfect for the toggle.
This one is my fave, might borrow the clasp placement idea
Very pretty Wanda…love the color. I also love the toggle placement.
Thanks Asia and Deb! I hope the people at the show like it also.
