Without a doubt, this Saturday's Final Four match-up with Wisconsin will likely be another nail-bitter like the last few games. However, as of late, one could make the argument that Kentucky might actually like to play in those kinds of games. Something that Big Blue Nation couldn't say weeks prior. However, now the Cats are on a 6-1 post-season run, if you count the SEC Tournament. Momentum seems to be heading in the Cats direction.
Who knows there may be something to loyal Kentucky fan, Tyler Black's madness after all. We'll definitely know after Saturday, if Black has a shot at getting his prediction right or not.

Regardless, the game (on paper) looks like a good game. Each team will likely have issues matching-up with one another. Wisconsin is effective on the offensive glass and without Willie Cauley-Stein, it could cause problems for the Cats. However, the achilles heel for the Badgers is the fact that they struggle to obtain key rebounds. In fact the Cats have out-rebounded the Badgers on the season 1,507-1,239. Which means that on average per game, the Cats grab nearly 41 rebounds to the Badgers' 33. The rebound factor could be the game-winning stat come Saturday for the Cats.
However, even if the Cats preform excellently on grabbing key boards, they will still have to face the Badgers' 7-foot superstar, Frank Kaminsky (aka. baby Dirk). Not only is Kaminsky athletic, but he is only persistent with following-up his own shots. Kaminsky, could be the biggest 'x-factor' for the Badgers going into Saturday's match-up. But, put Dakari Johnson, Juluis Randle or Alex Poythress on him and the Cats should be fine.
The current bidding line in Los Vegas for the Cats/Badgers game is currently in the Cats favor by 1.5 points. If that prediction holds true, it will be a very exciting game to watch and could likely come down to another shot like Aaron Harrison's game-winner over Michigan (hopefully in Kentucky's favor again).

Favorite TV-shows couples » ♔ Leyton (Lucas Scott and Peyton Sawyer)
"Suddenly it was if the roar of the crowd, the echo of the final buzzer, or the cheers of my teamates were sounding from a thousand miles away. and what remained in that bizarre, muffled silence was only peyton. the girl whose art, passion, and beauty had changed my life. in that moment, my triumph was not a state championship, but simple clarity. the realization that we had always been meant for each other, and every instinct to the contrary had simply been a denial of the following truth. i was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer."

Consisting of a road cum enduro motorcycle (BMW G650 XChallenge - £5,875), a supermoto motorcycle (BMW G650 XMoto - £6,070), and a dual-purpose soft trailie motorcycle (BMW G650 XCountry - £4,895), which is more akin to the Scrambler style motorcycle of yesteryear, all share the same frame and engine, but ride and ...

The Yamaha TTR250 is a hardy wee beastie. As an undemanding, unfussy enduro bike for newer riders it excels, with a never-say-die single cylinder motor that has just enough pep for muddy fun. Now deleted from Yamaha's range the Yamaha TT250R is still a sound used buy providing you don't have to go too far on the tarmac.

The Honda XLR125 was launched to appeal to the sub-15bhp learner market, it was a shame Honda didn't make full use of the regulations and give the little XLR a few more bhp. As it is, it's got its flaws but still provides lots of fun for newbies as well as proving a useful town hack for more experienced riders.

Bocock says college scouts will be in attendance and that the event will hold a skills competition.
Players will also be treated with uniforms.

Noncritically phase-matched second harmonic generation of blue light in Si[O]N-calix[4] arene slab type waveguides
Wörhoff, K. and Noordman, O.F.J. and Lambeck, P.V. and Hulst van, N.F. and Albers, H. (1996) Noncritically phase-matched second harmonic generation of blue light in Si[O]N-calix[4] arene slab type waveguides. Optics Communications, 124 (5-6). pp. 493-499. ISSN 0030-4018
|Phase-matching (TM(0)(omega) --> TM(1)(2 omega)) devices for generation of blue light using Si[0]N and optically nonlinear calix[4]arene layers are designed, fabricated and tested. The devices show second harmonic peak power of 17 mW at 472.9 nm and 4.5 W at 481.6 nm after 10 mm propagation length of a 1 mm broad beam using fundamental peak power of 200 W and 500 W, respectively. The strong requirements of noncritical phase match are fulfilled, in both design and realization, by the excellent process controllability of the passive Si[O]N waveguides and the insensitivity of the devices towards technologically critical parameters, mainly the calix [4] arene layer thickness.

I obviously never saw him play live, but my high-school years consisted of watching entire seasons/playoff runs from years before the 90's (shout-out to YouTube and loafting in high-school) and I grew to love Dr. J much during this time. So when NBA TV was about to come out with this documentary I couldn't wait. There was nothing new for me but it was still a great documentary. Well actually him dunking at the end at age 63 was kinda new and awesome.

Why is iClub BIZ different than the rest?
At the core of the iClub BIZ philosophy is long term. It's our goal to create a distribution system that can meet the needs of the consuming public for generations to come.
When you factor in the up to 95% failure rate of new product launches and the average life cycle of a successful product launch at 5 to 7 years, it's just good business sense to focus on building a distribution system and plug high demand products into it.
The distribution system remains the constant and the products change.
And yes, we do have some world class hi-demand products that you can buy. But what we have now is nothing to what we're going to have as our network gets bigger.
And here is the best part.It's FREE to Join and there are no required fees of any kind!

Dec 20, 2010It's another dose of Konami arcade goodness, with up to six players taking part in the over-the-top comic book action.
Dec 21, 2010You know this game is repetitive. You know this game has the most simplistic gameplay. You know this game has a terrible plotline, graphics, and audio qualities. You know spamming attacks is an incredibly cheap tactic that throws off the balance of the game. But with all the negative aspects going against it, X-Men Arcade is still absurdly entertaining - a quality very few games possess.
Jan 24, 2011If you can demonstrate a bit of self-control, though, or better yet actually risk failure by limiting the number of continues you get in the menus, this is definitely one of the better sidescrollers around.
Dec 20, 2010So while the replay value is limited to a few playthroughs and easy-to-earn achievements, X-Men Arcade is an excellent recommendation for a weekend diversion with friends.
Dec 21, 2010Numbers aside, though, the game's old-style simplicity is both charming and, well, kinda boring. Some barely smoothed visuals are the only real upgrade here, so what you get is pretty much the original arcade game.
Feb 16, 2011Beat-em-up, side-scrolling brawlers like this worked great when there was a fear of losing all the tokens you'd work so hard to buy with your allowance, but once that imminent threat is removed there's nothing but mindless button mashing and endless continues in your future.
Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 3
Mixed: 1 out of 3
Negative: 1 out of 3
Jan 3, 2011I have great memories of playing this game as a little kid with my cousin and my sister. We spent many hours working that machine. When I first picked up the 360 and started trying out the demo games, my first thought was "Where is the X-Men Arcade game?". When I first saw the game in the arcade I was very excited! The game is exactly the same as the old arcade version and that is exactly what I was hoping for.
The game is a side scrolling adventure game but the fun comes in the fact that you can play with so many friends. 6 players at once??!?!?! AWESOME! Anyone who played this game as a kid will enjoy playing it now. This is a very good but not great release only because there is nothing really NEW.… Collapse
Jan 6, 2011How much would you pay for nostalgia? That's the question you need to ask yourself before shelling out 10 bucks for this game. I have fond memories of huddling around the double-screen cabinet at my local, dark, dirty arcade waiting for my chance to jump in and play this game. Once out of tokens, I would stay and watch other people play - that was how far my childhood love of the X-Men and video games went. Combining the two was like peanut butter & chocolate for a 10 year old like me. I was thrilled when I heard this game was being ported to XBLA. Unfortunately, after dropping my 800 Microsoft points and then promptly beating it with a friend in less than two hours, I felt robbed. The graphics were not given a major HD overhaul, the gameplay is exactly the same, but without consequences for death (i.e. another quarter for a poor kid like myself back in the day) the thrill and mystique was gone. Sure, my friend and I enjoyed poking fun at Wolverine shooting lasers, Colossus with his classic yell that symbolizes his force field special (???) and the mere existence of Dazzler, but not 10 bucks worth of fun. I cannot imagine what it would be like if I went in to this game without my fond memories! If you did not play this game in the arcade and love it, don't buy it. If you did, wait until the week the Microsoft cuts the price to 5 bucks (which we all know will be coming) and pick it up then. The release is simply not worth 10 bucks, and that makes this former arcade nerd sad to admit.… Expand
Dec 25, 2010Loved this game in the arcades as a kid, but this XBLA release is an awful, cheap cash-in. A bloated 800 MS Points ($10) asking price for a 17-year old arcade port that offers nothing new in the way of additional levels, characters, graphical overhauls or bonus features. By comparison the TMNT Arcade Game, Gunstar Heroes, Contra, Golden Axe and other direct, unaltered ports on XBLA are only 400 MS Points ($5). Pricing issues aside, the game itself does provide nostalgic charm and gives you some difficulty settings, but ultimately you're likely to get only 1 or 2 hours worth of play before the charm evaporates and boredom settles in. If you're in the mood for a side scrolling beat-em-up I'd recommend the more expensive, but far more extensive Castle Crashers or the appropriately priced TMNT Arcade Game.… Expand

Daniel - global warming and global cooling are recurring constantly. Are we in a long term warming cycle? No one knows. Are we in a longterm cooling cycle? However, we do know it is one or the other. The science of climatology is in its infancy, just as meterology and oceanograpy. Cimate Modeling is still primitive - it is useful as a tool, but the answers are all dependent on good data.

No-one comes out well in Ireland's political posturing
Poker, chess, chicken. Pick whichever analogy you like: there's a high stakes game being played in Irish politics and it's not a game their international partners much like. Since Ireland said on Sunday it would be asking for help from the EU and IMF – little more than two days ago, though it seems like a lifetime — the pieces of the political game have moved almost without cease. Ironically, though, the net result may be little different to what was forecast before the tumultuous events of the past 48 hours: a four-year austerity plan outlining 15 billion euros in savings, a by-election Fianna Fail are set to lose, the harshest budget on record on December 7, and an election in early 2011.
It started with the government's bailout appeal. What should have led to a few weeks of EU/IMF negotiations was immediately overshadowed by the surprise move of the junior coalition party, the Greens, who stunned voters – and, it appears, their partners Fianna Fail themself, itself, when it announced it would not continue to be part of the government once 2011 budget measures were implemented.
Next move came from two politicians that few knew were even playing in the game: the independent lawmakers on whom the government relies for parliamentary majority. Jackie Healy-Rae and Michael Lowry threw the success of the budget – and the immediate future of the government – into doubt after saying they might not back the budget after all. This threw the ball to opposition parties Fine Gael and Labour who took it, ran with it, and demanded a snap election.
Back to Prime Minister Brian Cowen, whose poker face kept everyone guessing for several tense hours. He was to make a statement, the government reported. The Twittersphere ignited with rumours he would resign, markets wobbled. But no, Cowen stood firm and swatted the ball back to the opposition. I'll call an election, he said, but not before the budget is passed and implemented — effectively daring Fine Gael and Labour to vote it down and so be branded unpatriotic and self-interested in the process.

Irish politics could complicate EU bailout
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are his own.
LONDON -- Ireland's politics could complicate its bailout with potentially devastating consequences. Even though the ruling coalition has applied for financial aid, political turmoil means it may not survive long enough to negotiate a deal with the European Union and International Monetary Fund. With years of painful austerity on the way, the desire for a political fresh start is understandable. But any delay could further undermine confidence in the country's fragile banks.
from The Great Debate:
It's time for a wider European policy debate
By Mohamed El-Erian
The opinions expressed are the author's own.
It is safe to say that there is broad agreement on what is most desirable for solving the Irish crisis -- namely a mix of domestic policies and external financing finely calibrated to enable the country to grow strongly, create jobs, stabilize the banks, and overcome large and mounting indebtedness.
Unfortunately, what is most desirable is not feasible given the path Europe is embarked on; and, to make things even more complicated, what appears feasible to Europe is not necessarily desirable. As a result, Ireland finds itself stuck in an unstable muddled-middle. It can't get ahead of the crisis; it is far from a first best solution; and it confronts choices that are painful to implement and uncertain in outcome.

Quadriplegic in an age of austerity
Every time I write a story on European countries cutting public spending, I feel a frisson of panic. I can't help but fear my health, lifestyle and liberty could be a casualty of the "age of austerity".
On assignment covering the Sri Lankan civil war for Reuters four years ago, I broke my neck in a minibus smash. It left me quadriplegic, almost entirely paralysed from the shoulders down and totally dependent on 24 hour care. I was 25.

Pope apologizes for "unspeakable crimes" of sexual abuse
(Photo: Girl waves papal flag before a Mass with Pope Benedict in London September 18, 2010/Kevin Coombs)
Pope Benedict apologized to victims of sexual abuse on Saturday, saying pedophile priests had brought "shame and humiliation" on him and the entire Roman Catholic Church. It was the 83-year-old pontiff's latest attempt to come to grips with the scandal that has rocked the 1.1 billion-member Church, particularly in Europe and the United States.
"I think of the immense suffering caused by the abuse of children, especially within the Church and by her ministers. Above all, I express my deep sorrow to the innocent victims of these unspeakable crimes ...," he said in his sermon in Westminster Cathedral, the mother church for Roman Catholics in England and Wales and a symbol of the struggle of Catholics here in the late 19th century to assert their rights after the Reformation.

Catholic Church and UK colluded in Northern Ireland bomb cover-up: report
(Photo: Nationalist youths set a car alight in Belfast on July 13, 2010/Cathal McNaughton)
The British government and the Roman Catholic Church colluded to protect a priest suspected of involvement in a 1972 bombing in Northern Ireland that killed 9 people, an official report said on Tuesday.
The Police Ombudsman's report revealed that an Irish cardinal was involved in transferring Father James Chesney out of British-ruled Northern Ireland, highlighting again the role of the Church hierarchy in protecting priests against allegations of criminal activity.
Irish lesson for Clegg: get coalition right or face oblivion
If the Irish experience of coalition politics is anything to go by, Nick Clegg risks a lot more than unpopularity if he strikes a half-baked coalition deal with the Conservative Party. He also faces electoral oblivion should he fail to win enough concessions and power to carry his grassroots supporters with him.
Ireland's pro-business Progressive Democrats (PDs) — relatively loyal junior coalition partners in successive administrations led by former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern — imploded at the last Irish general election, winning just two seats in parliament. They subsequently disbanded altogether.

What are the odds on getting the Six Nations winner right?
Picking the winner of the Six Nations championship is always a tricky task as the vagaries of form and the fixture list ensure that no two seasons are the same.
France, who finished third last season, are rated 6/4 favourites by Ladbrokes while grand slam champions Ireland are only second-best at 9/4.

Could Irish abortion case lead to a "European Roe v. Wade"?
Ireland has defended its strict law against abortion at the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasbourg in a case that could overturn that ban if the judges agree with three women who said it endangered their health and violated their rights. The women, two Irish and one Lithuanian living in Ireland, had travelled to Britain to have abortions because traditionally Catholic Ireland allows the procedure only when the mother's life is in danger. Read our full story on Wednesday's hearing here.
The three women, named only as A, B and C, argued they had to terminate their pregnancies due to medical and social problems, and that being forced to travel abroad for abortions meant submitting to inhumane treatment that violated their right to privacy. They also said the law constituted gender-based discrimination.

France break Irish hearts to seal World Cup slot
France ensured the likes of Franck Ribery, Karim Benzema and Thierry Henry will be at the World Cup in South Africa next year after winning through with a goal that has left Irish fans seething.
There was nothing wrong with the finish from William Gallas, but Thierry Henry admitted using his hand to keep the ball in play and commentators and Irish supporters are already talking of "The Hand of God II" and "The Hand of Henry" in reference to Diego Maradona in 1986.

Nike Hyperdunk Low – Snake Pool – Available in Asia
February 15th, 2010 by Aaron Hope | 3 comments
For a guy who'd jump over a pool filled with snakes just to prove how dope his new shoes are, it seems odd that Kobe Bryant skipped out on the 2010 NBA All Star game for such a relatively small injury. It's not like he broke his finger jumping over an Aston Martin or anything like that. Mamba-less ASG aside, there are still some snakes to contend with now that the 'Snake Pool' Nike Hyperdunk Low is ready for release. This ankle-cut edition sports the same colourway made famous in the Kobe x Jackass commercials. We expect them stateside shortly, and they've already been spotted at Japanese e-tailer Ultimate Collection.

To Tomatoes, With (Belated) Love
[ read more... ]
Ever since it opened last summer, I have eschewed the American Grill for being a totally weird eyesore. First, the name. The American Grill? For a Greek diner in the middle of the Ukranian East Village? Second, the lie. It proclaimed, on its red white and blue awnings, that it was open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, when it in fact closes at various times, usually around 11 pm. Third, the space. It was sprawling, overdecorated, the antithesis of bohemian.
Then I married a Yankees fan. Whenever we passed by the eyesore and a game happened to be on, my husband glued himself to the glass wall like a bug attracted to light, to see the score on the TV behind the empty bar. One night, the Yankees were playing the Red Sox. We stood outside my building, wishing there was a place we could eat and watch the game. We gazed absently across the street and his eyes fell upon a flickering beacon that I had long since ceased to see, American Grill's unwatched TV.
"You wanna try it?"
"Not really…" But Standings, the sports bar under my building, was a Red Sox bar, so that was out. And Bounce, on 2nd Avenue and 6th Street, was full of frat boys, and that could not be tolerated on a weeknight.
We entered the oversized space tentatively and huddled at the bar, where we ordered beers and spinach pie. And then something strange happened: husband Joe, usually reticent to the point of seeming not to possess vocal chords, decided to talk the waitress. Perhaps it was because she was around our age and seemed lonesome -- she had thanked us for sitting at the bar and keeping her company, then complimented his long hair....
Continue reading "American Grill" here.
It was not my idea. I haven't watched American Gladiators in fifteen years. Until a week ago, I didn't even know it was back on the air. I now think of those days as the B.G. era, and oh, how I long to return.
Last Wednesday, I got an email from the only other woman I know whose testosterone level matches mine, who makes up games and then alters the rules to make sure she wins. She's even got my same initials, or I guess I've got hers. The email sounded like Hulk Hogan was dictating: "American Gladiator Tryouts - this SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!! WHO'S WITH ME????????????? I AM SO GOING TO THIS." I responded instantly: "i could not be more IN," and printed out the 28-page application and a picture of me looking ripped, even bought sweatpants and a sports bra from KMart when I got home from work Friday too late to pick up my laundry. So when BT texted at 10:20 Friday night that she had to bail because she had "way too much to do," it was too late for me to back out.
The doors to Crunch gym at 38th and Broadway opened at 10 a.m. Saturday morning. I got there at 9:11 a.m. -- having woken up at an ungodly 7:45 a.m. to get here from a friend's place in Brooklyn -- to join a line of about 4,000 people, some of them camped out since midnight, wrapped all the way around the block. This is an expression that gets tossed around, so let me make clear that I mean it quite literally. I was standing twenty yards from the entrance to Crunch, in a procession that filed around the corner from 38th Street onto Broadway, down Broadway, across 37th Street, up 7th Avenue, and back onto 38th Street, and then into Crunch. NBC had grossly underestimated just how many people desperately wanted to get shot by tennis ball canons on national TV. There was no chance we were all going to make it in and out of one small gym by 4 p.m. Had I grasped that, I like to think I would have peeled off and salvaged my Saturday, like the school teacher in front of me in line who, when we hadn't turned the corner by 11 a.m., called it a day.
Instead, I got a cappuccino and called my brother. "Oh my god, you'd be perfect, Bec!" he

The American Society of Naval Engineers Selects Helen Reese as the 2008 Teacher of the Year
The American Society of Naval Engineers, Channel Islands Section, recognized Helen Reese from Rio Mesa High School as their 2008 Teacher of the Year at the 35th annual National Engineers Week Dinner. The event was held at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley on February 21, 2008.
The mission of the Channel Islands Section is to facilitate professional partnerships between industry, academia, government, and other professional societies in the interest of furthering the collective knowledge and practice in the engineering profession.
The Teacher of Year award was initiated in 1998 because the society felt there was a need to recognize the contributions made by teachers to the engineering profession.
Capt. Joseph Iacovetta, USN, Naval Surface Warfare Center Port Hueneme Division Deputy Commander (Chief Engineer) and Channel Islands section chairman presented the award to Reese. He said, Its comforting to know that there are teachers out there that are keeping Americas students on the cutting edge of technology.
Reese was selected because she has inspired her students to see that they can succeed and learn as they go and that engineering offers a wonderful opportunity to a successful career path.
Reese graduated from California Institute of Technology in 1996 with a bachelor of science in engineering and received her master of science in electrical engineering from the University of California Santa Barbara in 1999. She has published papers in peer-review journals about electronics material research and has developed polymer lessons for high school students working with researchers at the University of California Berkeley. She currently teaches college prep and advanced placement physics for juniors and seniors, as well as freshmen science.
What was most impressive was that she came up with the idea for a robotics club at Rio Mesa High School in 2006. She asked students if they were interested and eighteen signed up to participate in the program. The robots were designed and built according to specs and materials approved by the First Robotics Competition. Students were exposed to C programming and metal working in the process of building the robots. The team, along with mentors and teachers, put in over 500 hours of work. Their team has competed with other teams around California and advanced to the semifinals in each competition.
Reese shared these thoughts after receiving the award, I am honored by this award and recognition. I am a teacher because of my students. They are the ones who worked hard to accomplish something so difficult. Thanks to the support from the community, the Rio Mesa Robotics Team continues to grow.
Please note that views and opinions expressed by the National Engineers Week Committee are not necessarily shared by The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Foundation.

The Sanskrit translation of rasamaya is "fluid," which describes the studio's Rasamaya Method of intelligent movement. Rasamaya's instructors lead their own brand of barre, Pilates, cycle, and vinyasa yoga classes that are designed to balance and strengthen the mind and body in tandem. Featured in Pilates Style Magazine , Yoga Journal, and Wanderlust conferences. Founder Carrie Tyler specializes in women's physical structure, health, and sexuality and built the practice from her playful teaching style and deep understanding of yogic philosophy, anatomy, and alignment.
The experienced instructors at Springboard Pilates bolster cores in individualized sessions that challenge students' muscles on both mats and machines. Under an instructor's careful guidance, torsos and limbs learn new muscle-toning movements to help push themselves to better fitness during a 50-minute private session, acclimating to Peak Pilates equipment including the Reformer, the ladder barrel, and the Wunda chair. When teamed with mat work, these resistance contraptions expand pupil's repertoire of gut-crunching moves beyond sit-ups and playing the board on Monopoly night. Springboard's staff customizes all classes to account for student's goals, past injuries, and aversion to spring-loaded machinery stemming from traumatic childhood slinky experiences. Nestled in an 1846 townhouse, Springboard's studio warms tense joints with red walls and decorative fireplaces. Patrons can flex and furrow thoughtful brows along with physiques by viewing gallery pieces from local artists.
Named Portland's best massage studio by Portland Phoenix readers in 2010, Ove tempers stressed tendons with therapeutic massages, energizing yoga, and a welcoming atmosphere. The 40-minute relaxation massage begins with a coat of raw sesame oil, which softens the skin and summons blissful images of slow dancing with a giant Nutter Butter candy bar ($50). Next a seasoned therapist eases aches and pains with the long, gentle strokes of a 60-minute swedish massage ($75). The 75-minute specialty massage combines restorative myofascial-release techniques and the yoga-like stretches of thai massage, helping jaw muscles unclench and neck stiffness fade ($100). Guests wound tighter than baseballs feel knots melt during the 90-minute shiatsu massage, which combines deep-tissue bodywork and japanese acupressure ($115).
Open seven days a week, World Gym houses the full line of shoulder-sculpting and trapezius-toning strength equipment for aspiring Adonises and Aphrodites of all ages and skill levels.

Portland's World Gym stocks tanning booths for fitness mavens seeking to match the Olympic bronze medals they will someday win. If three lunar cycles just isn't enough time to satisfy all shirt-bursting needs, the annual fee (a $39 value) is waived with this deal and memberships may be extended nine more months ($19.99–$29.99/month) before ponying up.
The Racket and Fitness Center boasts a wealth of body-buffing equipment within its bright fitness center alongside swatting facilities for various racketeers. Open on weekdays 6 a.m.–9 p.m. and on weekends 8 a.m.–4 p.m., the variety and volume of available gear ensures muscle-sculptors a balanced workout and a center free of lines and long waits. The circuits of Nautilus machines guide patrons in proper resistance, form, and movement, and free weights allow limbs to seize control of their own strength-training destiny. Machines also come equipped with Cardio Theater to give heart-rate-raisers the opportunity to effectively multi-task and increase their mileage in tune with televised small-claims-court drama.
Pilates Baxter Place is a fully equipped studio located in the historic Old Port district of Portland on the waterfront. By day the studio is flooded with natural light and at night by full-spectrum, color-corrected lights. Free parking is available right next to the building.

Our anemic movie industry recycles so relentlessly that even our complaints about such plasticized repackaging comes off as recycled product of its own, offered primarily to draw the line between concerned aging cinephiles and the target consumers who don't care a whit. But still, we've become a culture not merely tantalized by but doped on never-ending resurrections of our own recent junk. The market dynamic seems to be accelerating, and perhaps there'll be a cyclical point when the diminishing returns will vanish altogether and the punk-like essence of movies--people, stories, experience, visual insight--may rise up. Or maybe not.
That no one is going to the mat for Irwin Allen's old Poseidon Adventure is beside the point; the inaugural disaster film was old-fashioned cheesecake. But it was still the '70s, so the actors looked like real people; the catastrophe at hand was entirely a matter of sets, stunts, real fire and gravity; and the characters weren't hyper-formulated with motivational back stories and simple hero-villain identities. The new Poseidon--an empty-skulled genre mechanism and nothing more--begins in digital fourth gear, swooping up, over and around the animated ship and catching glimpses of a jogging Josh Lucas all in one shot! Except we know it's not--it's merely a tired series of computer-generated sutures and tricks, convincing to no one.
But it's with the brutally obvious early scenes that introduce us to the B-list cast that Wolfgang Petersen's movie truly begins to reveal itself. Instead of Gene Hackman's bizarrely Nietzschean priest of the original film, we get Lucas as a career gambler with a mercenary sense of survival and lots of helpful Navy experience as a cliff diver. Kurt Russell is his counterpoint, an ex-New York mayor ("Cool!" someone says in mid-fight-for-life) and, also luckily, a retired fireman. His daughter (Emmy Rossum, intolerably dewy at times) is stumping for her boyfriend (Mike Vogel) and even shows Daddy the secret engagement ring, right before they slide down a fire hose over a lake of fire.
Richard Dreyfuss, as a heartbroken gay millionaire who is literally climbing over the rail in a suicidal lurch when the monster wave appears, proves to be mostly an impediment in the trip through the capsized vessel, but no more so than a handful of other lackluster souls. (Fergie, of the Black Eyed Peas, is the ballroom chanteuse not singing "The Morning After.") Old people--the linchpin of every cruise ship passenger list--are nowhere to be seen here; when it comes time for a sacrificial rescue underwater, Russell is Shelley Winters of the original.
Still, nobody is able to act in any way even James Lipton could praise; Petersen's movie moves too quickly, so conversations are reduced to stone-age quips. Kevin Dillon's caricatured ass-wipe is subjected to one of the most deplorable deserving-death setups ever concocted, trying to pick a drunken fistfight within minutes of the boat turning over. (How you will miss Ernest Borgnine's Rogo, the fat cop who reflexively resists Hackman's messianic leader, evoking every grouchy, work-hardened friend's uncle I'd ever met as a kid.) It's telling, in the blitz of blustery destruction and expense, that the most pungent sequence is set in an air duct, where all of the characters are crammed and the serious claustrophobia of Mexican stowaway Mia Maestro becomes a distinctly nasty crucible.
In the end, Poseidon, like Steven Spielberg's War of the Worlds, may go down better with most audiences than it did with me. Disaster films--a supposedly fun thing I may never want to do again after September 11--are simple death porn, and the easy wow factor of fireballs, massive explosions, flying bodies and architectural obliteration on a large scale is, or should be, no longer a gimme. Petersen's film doesn't avert its gaze from the corpses and mayhem like the original mostly did--as if to, what, chasten us for ever enjoying disaster movies? Or has September 11, in Hollywood's eyes, been converted to a kind of combat seasoning, after which we should not only tolerate experiences of bloody catastrophe but thrill to them? Did it take four downed planes to turn us into the wreck-wound junkies of J.G. Ballard's Crash? I missed the inoculation, I guess, and don't look forward to the inevitable remake of The Towering Inferno.

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto is just 30 years old, a former National League MVP, and owner of one of the longest and richest contracts in Major League Baseball history. Despite his accolades and relative youth, though, Votto is already running out of time to put together the kind of career numbers that will someday land him in the Hall of Fame. Don't believe it? Let's take a stroll through the statistics to see what the future might hold for the Reds' slugger.
According to Baseball-Reference.com, Votto's career through age 29 most closely matches that of Matt Holliday, followed by Mo Vaughn, Jason Giambi, David Ortiz, and Lance Berkman. Those guys are, or were, all superstar players in their primes, but only Big Papi looks to have much of a Hall of Fame chance at this point. More troubling for Votto and Reds fans is the type of player this list represents: heavy, lead-footed sluggers who tend to drop off the table quickly. It may be surprising to find the cerebral and fit Votto in this company until you look at his recent trends.
Counting his MVP award year in 2010, Votto has played in 150, 161, 110, 162, and 61 (out of 85) games over the past five seasons, a camel-back pattern that further suggests he won't hold up well physically as he ages. He continues to battle left knee and quad issues this season that leave his day-to-day status up in the air. Beyond mere games played, Votto's power has diminished steadily over that same span, with his slugging percentage plummeting from .600 in 2010 to .438 so far in 2014. His stolen bases have similarly evaporated, leaving on-base ability and the ever-nebulous leadership qualities as his only hedges against the ravages of time.
At this moment, Joey Votto has 1055 hits, 163 home runs, and a contract that runs through 2023. Only that long-term noose around the organization's neck is likely to keep the Reds running Votto out to first base as he enters his decline phase in earnest over the next few years, and even regular playing time won't be enough to get him into the Hall if he doesn't turn his fortunes around soon.
As a slugging first baseman, Votto probably needs at least another 240 homers to merit serious Cooperstown consideration. As a singles hitter, he's still 2000 hits shy of any meaningful plateau. The calendar tells us that neither milestone is likely, and Votto's best days are almost surely behind him. His one hope at stanching the bloodletting we're witnessing in his stat line might be a trade to the AL, where he could settle in to a DH role, a la Ortiz.
For Joey Votto and the Cincinnati Reds, though, and for their fans, it's already later than we might have thought.

Originally written on Atlantic Twine | Last updated 10/23/14
Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via Getty Images The Boston Celtics have had a string of games where consistency is productive, but then there is that inconsistency, like the recent second half complications. Doc Rivers' team has always been accustomed to playing and preaching all four quarters, but in this series against the New York Knicks, they have struggled to compete the whole 48 minutes. In Tuesday's game, the C's had a terrific start in leading the home team 48-42 at the half, as well as leading 53-49 in Saturday's matinee, but when 12 minutes went back on the clock, it seemed as though someone pressed the reset button. On Saturday, Boston's bench displayed absolutely no production from either end of the court after producing a total of four points while shooting 0-for-7 from the field and only grabbing — mind you — six rebounds. Even without Tyson Chandler on the floor, the Celtics have struggled to find a foundation in the paint to gain more possessions. Paul Pierce, who has been the C's anchor in recent games, needs assistance. At 35 years old, the body can only take in so many blows and energy. With that, players like Jason Terry, who went 0-for-4 on Saturday, Avery Bradley, Kevin Garnett, Chris Wilcox, Jordan Crawford and most importantly Courtney Lee, need to start playing basketball. Lee, a defensive-oriented guard throughout the 2013 season, has been silent due his lack there of defensive awareness and inefficiency to shoot the three ball. If the Celtics need a boost from a player, currently Lee is not the answer to that phone call, Jeff Green and Crawford are. Green, a well-established player in the NBA, posted a team-high 26 points on Saturday, but on Tuesday it went a little different. The four-year swingman, who only posted 10 points and one rebound in Tuesday's game, was missing shots, but good ones at that. A great scorer like Green will bounce back from insufficiency. On the other side of the court, Crawford, who posted 10 points and two steals, took over the third quarter closing the gap to nine points. But as time dwindled down and the Knicks came out pouring in the fourth, little hope was warranted. The Celtics throughout the 2013 regular season were an average team after Rajon Rondo and Jared Sullinger went down with season-ending injuries. And I for one, was one of those people who said the C's are better off without Rondo, but as many of us know that is completely wrong. The ball distribution was and is too much without an initial ball handler, and Tuesday's Game 2 was evident after the C's registered 19 percent from the field. The troubling shooting percentage was in part of last-second shot selections and 11 turnovers, which makes up for the great defensive performance by Mike Woodson's club. Carmelo Anthony and the old Knicks, have not been a defensive-minded team, but ever since Woodson took over the reigns of heading coach duties for Mike D'Antoni, the Knicks have been dominating the paint with block shots, as well as picking off passes in the backcourt. The Knicks security around the court has held the C's to record a 39.3 field goal percentage. If the Celtics keep up the inconsistency and the Knicks lockdown defensively, the green team could find a vacation spot soon rather than later.

I love a girl from school. She is wonderful and modest, kind and caring, compassionate and beautiful. She is so perfect but she is a Christian who believes that Muslims and Christians can't get married. We have never met exclusively alone and most of our contact is exclusively academic. I love her very much and she cares for me as well. I went on Umrah recently and made duaa after tawaf that if things do not work between us in this life, that Allah guides her and we may have the fortune of working in the next life. Is this wrong? Am I doing something harram. I am very god fearing and I feel like making duaa that one day we will be binded by marriage, in this life or the next, helps me be at peace. PS I have never had sexual relations, had a girlfriend, kissed a girl, or held her hand inappropriately etc. Please help I want to marry her; I don't want to date her - I want her to be my wife, not a sexual object or a girlfriend- I want her to be with me and me with her. I want to build a relationship with her but the circumstances in this life seem very unrealistic to allow for this. Any help is appreciable. PSS: We are both 18. Please make duaa like I do, even if it is a simple one, that things will work out eventually.
Salam alayk wa rahmatu-Allah wa barakatuhu
In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent Most Merciful
NB: As I keep reiterating on this website: Such questions should be posed only to Islamic scholars who have the relevant knowledge of Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) and 'Aqeedah (principles of belief). I am only a student of knowledge and am not allowed to issue any rulings.
Dear questioner, I hope this message finds you in the best of health, insha-Allah.
I am a teenager (18 also) like yourself, and a student of Islamic knowledge, as I have already stated. What I state in this message is not a fatwa (a legal verdict), rather it is Naseeha (sincere advise), and the help of an Alim must be sought to clarify the unclear areas, Insha-Allah.
First of all, I would like to applaud you for sticking to your Deen and not compromising yourself sexually, as most teenagers do. Also I applaud you for not wanting to be in an illicit relationship with this girl (as this is prohibited by the Shari'a). I must again applaud you for keeping your communications academic and not making it intimate. And again, I must applaud you for your turning to Allah regarding this matter.
Generally, marriage with non-Muslims is prohibited, with two exceptions: Christians and Jews (collectively Ahl-ul-Kitab; the People of the Book). Allah says in the Glorious Qur'an, in Suratul Maa'idah, Surah 5, what means:
"Lawful unto you in marriage are chaste women who are believers (Muslims) and chaste women among the people of the book."
So, first of all, this girl is permissible for you. However, it is important to note that many scholars regard such marriage as Makrooh (not preferable) especially when there are many Muslim sisters around. If you are convinced, nonetheless, that she is the one for you, then you are allowed to carry on.
In Islam, the consent of both parties in the marriage is cardinal, so if she does not consent to the marriage based on her own religious views, then you cannot proceed to marry her. And this seems to be your major problem. I am guessing that since you have been able to isolate the major problem preventing you from getting married, then you must have talked about marriage. If the reason for her rejection of marriage is because your religion prevents this, then it behoves on you to correct her misconception (keep it formal).
Make sure, and may Allah help you, that you do not become intimate with this girl. Keep everything formal. Never be alone together, as Allah's Messenger (SAW) has said:
(Narrated by Umar ibn al-Khattab, Messenger of Allaah {Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam} said): "Whenever a man is alone with a woman shaytan makes a third." [Al-Tirmidhi 3118]
What you should do is to make Istikhara, and if this marriage is best for you, Allah will ease both your ways into it. If it will bring you harm, then Allah will protect you from it (no doubt, and I speak from personal experience regarding Istikhara).
And regarding your question as to whether it was wrong for you to ask Allah to guide her, then it is not. And if you were asking whether it was wrong that you prayed to be united in Jannah if not in this Dunya, then there are some misgivings surrounding the circumstances (and Allah knows best; make sure to ask an Alim, insha-Allah).
The most practical advice I can offer right now is to give her da'wah or give her the Qur'an to read. But be careful not to let things get too chatty between you. The best way to give a person of the opposite sex da'wah is to give them da'wah material and not through direct da'wah as there are many such instances where things go wrong.
The Qur'an is the most powerful Book in the world. there are cases where people have converted after reading just one ayah (as in the time of the Prophet - SAW) or two ayahs (in this 21st century. Those two ayahs were the beginning of al-Baqarah). So you must encourage her to read it; it is the Master and wellspring of all da'wah. Find a creative way to let her read at least one Surah (I suggest Suratul-Maa'idah very strongly).
If you can provide me your e-mail address in the comments area, I will send you a copy of my Comparative Religion Book. It is somewhat a large Book, but if she has the courage to read it, or if you can give her passages from it to read, it may help. A partial copy of the book is available at www.bookrix.com under the search string: 'The Truth revealed' in case you don't want to provide your e-mail (or you can send it to me by private message if you wish)
Keep praying, Insha-Allah, and don't get intimate, for Allah's sake. Pray Istikharah; that is critical.
May Allah grant you that which is best. And He is the One who knows all, and indeed He knows best concerning this matter.
Salam alayk
PS: Please seek an Alim's view.
PPS: Please read this important article http://qa.sunnipath.com/issue_view.asp?HD=1&ID=2267&CATE=10
PPPS: I hope you are planning on marriage soon, otherwise it may complicate matters and increase the risk of becoming intimate. Seeing that you are eighteen, I am thinking you are not considering marriage very soon.

Word 2010 - Styles Ribbon Behaviour When Saving Protected Doc/Dot
Open a new document.
Create 2 text boxes
Link them
Enter some text
All the while it is possible to use the Styles ribbon to change the formatting in the text boxes.
Now Restrict Formatting and Editing by
Formatting restrictions -> Limit formatting to a selection of styles
Editing Restrictions -> Allow only No Change (Read only)
Select entered text
Exceptions -> Groups Everyone
Start Enforcement - Click Yes, Start Enforcing Protection and enter password
It is still possible to use the Styles ribbon to change the formatting in the text boxes.
Now save the document
The Styles ribbon grays out and it is no longer possible to use the Styles ribbon to change the formatting in the text boxes.
Even if you close and re-open the document or break the link the Styles ribbon stays grayed out.
If you Stop and Start protection the Styles ribbon is no longer grayed out and if there is a legacy textbox within the document by clicking it the Styles ribbon is no longer grayed out.
Please can someone explain what is the issue and a way round it.
WIndows 7 64bit
Many Thanks
|My System Specs

By "a way around it, you mean you would like to be able to edit styles after you reopen your document? What is your goal?
|My System Specs
|11 Feb 2013
I have a protected macro document that gathers some information from configuration files eg name, class, subject. This is achieved using VBA - so far so good.
There is one part of the document excluded from protection where staff can input work covered - this is 2 text boxes linked together.
In completing this section staff need to be able to format using normal, bullets and bold styles before it is copied to another template document using VBA.
The copying and subsequent stages all work fine - it is just the formatting that is an issue. While I could put a dummy legacy control on the document you can be sure that someone will put data into it which will get printed on the final report
|My System Specs
|11 Feb 2013
I have attached a document that shows the issue.
1. Open the document using Word 2010
2. Enter some text into the text box (linked to flow from lh to rh)
2. Check if Styles are available from ribbon or 'grayed out'
3. If 'grayed out' click where indicated.
4. Styles are now available from ribbon
I have found a work around by inserting the legacy control on the first line - the cursor defaults to that position. However, it is a work around and doesn't explain the behaviour and I prefer positive action rather than relying on default and of course someone could enter a character which would print out.
|My System Specs
|11 Feb 2013
Okay, I have tried that out. Same issues with Office 2013.
May be Microsoft thinks that once you use a textbox, there might not be a lot of style changing when document is protected. I do not have another explanation
Why don't you try other ways to create the same thing?
Like one cell table with text divided into two columns? (You would have to dig out that function from ribbon customization menu. It is under All commands and is called "Columns")
I have tried, it works out of the box! No need for any dummy controls.
|My System Specs
|12 Feb 2013
Many Thanks, Neutron16.
It would appear that in Word 2010 you cannot put columns into a cell, at least, I have not been able to do it successfully.
|My System Specs
|12 Feb 2013
Two column text was not invented in Office 2013, that is for sure.
Could you split text into two columns first, then create one cell table. And only after that put place that text into the table?
|My System Specs
|12 Feb 2013
I've given it a try but no can do. All that happens is 2 columns are created and the cell ends up in one of them rather than the other way round.

Should I Unplug? part of SISL:2012 Sustainability in Math Workshop:Activities
A wide variety of electronic devices and small appliances are a regular part of students' lives: cell phones, laptops, iPods/MP3 players, hairdryers, irons, coffeemakers, printers, mini-refrigerators, microwaves, televisions, etc. Many of these products remain plugged in while not in use in students' dorms or apartments. In this project, students investigate the question "Should I unplug?" In particular, students measure plug loads of several products using a wattage meter, then compute the monetary costs associated with various unnecessary plug loads.

So there's this cleanse I'll be doing for the next eight days. I decided to document the time spent on this diet here on Tumblr. I could not be more excited. The only thing I'll be able to consume is a concoction of:
I'll be basically drinking spicy lemonade for the next week ONLY. No solid foods permitted and the only thing I'm allowed to "cheat" on is a herbal laxative tea which will help flush me out more. The purpose of this cleanse is so that I can detoxify my body and start eating healthier foods after the cleanse has been completed. So far as of today, June 30th at 9:40 pm, it has been forty-eight hours since I've consumed solid foods. This is probably the longest period of time I've gone without food. Up until this point I've come to a crossroads, involving who I am, what I'm about, and the choices I've been making. I've finally decided I am not satisfied with my life. I crave the things which will make me a better person but yet my whole life I've been too scared to try anything different or anything new that would aide in me becoming the person I wanna be. When one is not satisfied with the direction of their life they can do one of two things:
I'm taking the first choice and for me it all begins with this cleanse. I believe I can pull through this. In order to make the changes I wish to see happen I need to start from the inside, out. Although you can never really change who you are, I believe more than anything that you can always make improvements. Any support or opinions are greatly appreciated. Weigh in coming tomorrow morning.
Eight more days. EIGHT MORE DAYS! :D
That is all.
I saw on Facebook that some of my friends were attending Dobby's Funeral. Curious, I clicked on the link and felt dumb because 1. This proves I know jack shit about Harry Potter and 2. I wasted like five seconds of compassion which I will never get back.
Life flows more smoothly by following these rules. Give it a try.
Haha hello, hello! Nice to meet you. Thank you for your reply. :-) Indonesia, really?! I'm going to Jakarta next summer. ^^'
Imagine how awesome it would be to say, "My mom is Lauryn Hill and my grandpa is Bob Marley!"
Those lucky little bastards. -__-
…he scares me kind of and i like it sort of but i'm also afraid
I'd like to hear from any and everyone. Do you accept yourself? If so, how did you go about doing so and when? Thank you in advance. :-)

may add or drop health plans, increase or decrease the types of services covered, increase (but rarely cut) the level of employee cost sharing, change provider networks, or make other major and minor changes in the health benefits offered to employees. Some individuals lose some or all coverage when they voluntarily or involuntarily change jobs or move from welfare to working status. Others suffer ''job lock" or "welfare lock" rather than voluntarily give up medical coverage. Sometimes financial protection is continuous following a job change, but the continuity of medical care is still disrupted because the new job's health plan requires a change of health care practitioner. Such discontinuity of care for those with serious health problems is likely to become an increasingly important issue as more employers and health plans attempt to restrict individuals to defined networks of health care practitioners and providers. Through their national health plans or regulatory standards for sickness funds and similar organizations and their general commitment to universal coverage for basic health services, other countries limit the likelihood that changes in job status or employers' policies will interrupt care or coverage.
Whether the measure is health spending as a percentage of the gross national product or spending per capita, the United States is noted for spending considerably more on health care than other nations. Employers' capacities and incentives to manage health benefit programs effectively are quite uneven and will remain so. Managing health benefits is a secondary issue in most employers' visions of their future and in their priorities, and some seem to feel that pressing hard on health care costs may, at some point, actually undermine employee morale and other values. At their best, employers' skills in health benefit management can be quite sophisticated, but this sophistication is generally limited to the largest employers. At their worst, employers rely for cost containment on risk segmentation, discrimination, and excessive intervention in patient-clinician decisionmaking. Direct evidence that employers' cost containment efforts make a difference, especially for overall health care costs, is very limited . On the other hand, the track record for public cost containment strategies is not dramatically more positive.
Several of the features singled out above—diversity, discontinuity, risk segmentation—contribute to another distinctive feature of the U.S. health care system: the immense complexity of its public and private methods for providing and managing health benefits. A great array of differing coverage

How to Pray in the Spirit

Turn to the book of James, would you please for just a moment, the book of James chapter 4, and you will remember this morning we were preaching on triumphant prayer. Prayer that prevails, and we gave you some principles of prayer that cannot be denied. And, among those principles was a very vital principle that we call sensitivity to the Spirit. Look in James chapter 4, and verse 5. James chapter 4 and verse 5: "Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?" (James 4:5).
Now, while that verse is somewhat hard to interpret, what it really means is this: I'm convinced, that the Holy Spirit within us is very, very jealous for the cause of Christ. And, the Scripture says that over and over again, that God has given the Holy Spirit to us and the Holy Spirit within us is there to glorify Christ and to promote the cause of Christ. And, it is absolutely essential that you understand this if you are to pray vitally, because this is what we call praying in the Spirit. And, so that's what we're going to be talking about tonight, "How to Pray in the Spirit."
And, tonight I want us to think about the Holy Spirit's ministry, first of all to us, and then secondly the Holy Spirit's ministry through us, as we're talking about praying in the Spirit.
Incidentally, I would like you to check these three other verses of Scripture before
we get into the message. You might write it down there in the margin by James, or you might just want to turn to it. But, look please in Ephesians. Ephesians chapter 6, and verse 18. Ephesians chapter 6, and verse 18. There the Bible gives us this admonition, "Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit…" (Ephesians 6:18). Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit.
I. The Holy Spirit's Ministry
All right now, I want you to jot down this verse. In Jude, verse 20. There's no chapter because there's only one chapter in Jude, so we don't give you a chapter designation, just the book and the verse. Listen to it. Jude, next to the last book in the Bible. Jude verse 20: "But ye beloved, building up yourselves in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit" (Jude 1:20). Praying in the Holy Spirit. Again, prayer in the Spirit is mentioned.
Now, the third Scripture that I want you to notice in conjunction with the Scripture in James is found in Romans chapter 8, beginning in verse 25—excuse me, verse 26: "Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself"—and may I pause here to say that itself is a poor translation, it could be and should be interpreted, "but the Spirit Himself"—"maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered" "And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he"—the Spirit—"maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God" (Romans 8:26–27).
A. Prayer is our Greatest Christian Privilege
