The road to WrestleMania officially begins tomorrow night at the Royal Rumble.
It is one of the most exciting pay per views of the year and, I for one, can not wait.
With the event drawing nearer, I have put together how I feel the PPV will pan out. This is NOT necessarily the way I want the event to end up, but the way I see the WWE booking the Royal Rumble.

Gallery: Spiraling Stairscraper Provides a Garden For Every Apartment
In the future, housing will have to become much denser to support burgeoning populations, free land for other uses, and maximize infrastructure. However many people cringe at having to live in a box in the city — so Nabito Architects designed this spiraling Stairscraper concept that provides both a smaller foot print and a backyard to boot. Featured on designboom, the 'cottage' towers cork screw into the air to create a unique relief against the sky.
The principle of providing green space in denser developments is catching on — like BIG's Mountain Dwelling on the outskirts of Copenhagen, the Stairscraper is a fusion of individual units stacked up so the lower roofs become the garden for the units above. The design results in abundant daylighting and amazing views, and the slender tower allows for daylight to still penetrate to the streets below. The interior looks similar to the famous Marina City towers in Chicago — a modified pie shape.
Since each floor is essentially a single unit, the overall density may not be adequate for major urban cores but better suited for the edges of urban areas. Nabito Architects have even proposed them for rural landscapes, where they would provide the suburban experience without the need to take up copious amounts of land with yards and roads.

Looks like you could have another set of apartments opposite and still would not have it too crowded. or you could add a few feet to each floor to give a little extra space between them so they don't crowd. Also having main entrances on the exterior at any great height wouldn't be good especially during severe weather. Winds at ground level are buffered by things like trees and other buildings but at greater heights the gusts don't have anything to soften them so getting in your house could be a pain in the ass or even dangerous.
December 21, 2010 at 9:00 pm
I disagree with SolarGuyRadio. Due to the addition of garden space in the structure, air quality and possible waste water treatment could be handled on site. This would be an efficiency boost. The design seems quite simple. I do agree that the scale of the building is very tall but that has more to do with the egos of the designers than the budget of the developers. Shorter versions could be very practical in suburban sprawl. http://www.ecolandscapegroup.com
December 21, 2010 at 3:33 pm
Cool idea, though unfortunately due to the nature of the design the rent would have to be outrageous for the landlords and property owners to cover the costs of a building with not only a complicated structure to build, but one that has at least 75%less habitable space. WHich goes on to challenge the claims of its viability in a world that needs higher population density.

With Fairfax County anticipating a significant budget shortfall in the next two fiscal years, the county's standard compensation program for employees has become unsustainable, according to County Executive Ed Long.
"We cannot afford the system that we have," he said.
County employees received a bump in pay last year, at a cost of about $50 million, but went without pay increases for two years before that. The county employs more than 11,000 people.
Long is proposing a new system in which employees would receive a cost of living increase, which the county calls a "market rate adjustment," in odd-numbered years and would be eligible for pay for a performance-based pay increase in even-numbered years. The salary hikes for public safety employees that are based on years of service would still be paid every year, as personnel become eligible, and public safety merit increases would be paid in even-numbered years only.
"Still, trying to find $19 [million] or $20 million in the budget is going to be a challenge, but it's much more doable," Long said.
He is still not proposing pay increases for fiscal 2014 but would implement the new program in fiscal 2015.
The Fairfax County Government Employees Union is still reviewing the proposal, said Secretary-Treasurer Karen Conchar, but the union is unhappy that employees were not consulted before Long presented his proposal to the Board of Supervisors. Long said Tuesday that he plans to hold a series of meetings to solicit employee input.
"Some of the ideas are positive. Some of the ideas are troubling," Conchar said. "Fairfax County employees have stood by the county during the recession, working harder, longer hours and making up for lost positions, but this proposal does not reflect the value of the employees."
In addition to the changes to scheduled pay increases, Long also is reviewing everything from employee evaluations to training and advancement opportunities.
One of the biggest challenges facing the county is the number of employees who are at or approaching retirement age. About 20 percent of the county government's senior leadership is currently retirement-eligible and nearly half will hit that mark by 2015 — representing nearly 300 positions, not including public safety, Long said.
Long wants to improve the county's system for developing lower-level employees to take over higher-level roles and to ensure that outgoing retirees transfer their institutional knowledge on the way out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nanamarie Love the features I enjoy the fact that the ice is made so quickly and you can choose the size of the ice that you would like for parties. We take the ice and refrigerate it after it is made and keep an extra bag in the freezer at all times. I also like the fact that you have color choices. April 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Joy1G Wood Pet Gate I was looking for a more stylish wood pet gate to keep our two small dogs out of the carpeted living and dining rooms. I saw the advertised wood pet gate in a rubbed walnut finish in the catalog and fell in love with it. I ordered a 2-panel section plus an extra panel with a door and four pet gate feet. It was easy to put together and is very attractive. If you have pet dogs that you wish to keep out of an area and want something with style, I would highly recommend this product. June 12, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by chickie1 This product meets my expectations. Overall I the love, love, the product. HOWEVER, the fabric didn't fit as tightly over the frame as I would have liked and there were wrinkles on all three awnings. I'm not happy with that, but can live with it. Tried to pull them as tight as possible over the frame, but there is only so much frame. Color is good, a little more "orangie" than I would have liked. Hard to tell the exact color without seeing it in person. I know this sounds negative, but I don't mean it to be, just my thoughts on the product. September 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by sharpie Traffic area carpets This product is great for high traffic areas. It is functional, non-slip and protects the flooring beneath. I put it in my elderly aunt's home because I noticed her throw rugs were dangerously loose. She loves them! February 9, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by Teddi Love the 10 drawer cabinet I was very happy with the 10 drawer cabinet for my arts and craft supplies.. They look great. Previously I had used the wire carts with plastic drawers and they always looked sloppy and the drawers were always falling down on one side.

Rated 4 out of 5 by tippa Ironing Center Compact and attractive. Would have liked wood better, but metal is okay. I do wish the metal holder for the iron was easily removable. It takes a lot of extra space and can be folded away only when the portion of the ironing board to which it is attached is folded down. Otherwise, the unit is fine--the baskets are roomier than I'd expected and easily fit supplies. February 17, 2014

Returns are easy but you can improve a little bit with returns, my mother recently got carried carrkied away and order some nice things that I would order myself in the future.

Rated 4 out of 5 by midwayusa Lovely Decorations I purchased 6 of the City Lights LED lit eight foot trees for decorating a charity Gala in March. I have only assembled one so far but it went together easy enough and when the room is dim looks very nice. The shipping went well and I received the decorations quickly and the service was pleasant was as well. Quality was average to just above average and the appearance is good. I do not care for the way the lights are attached at the base if the branches in large connections. They are too obvious and look bad. Now having said that, when the lights are dimmed as they will be for the Gala it should look alright. The size is very nice too. December 27, 2013

The institution now known as Radford University was founded by the Virginia General Assembly in the spring of 1910. The State Normal and Industrial School for Women at Radford grew out of a late nineteenth-century effort to expand Virginia's public school system and prepare a sufficient number of teachers. The school was to be located on 33 acres in east Radford known as the "Heth Grove." On October 3, 1911, Dr. John Preston McConnell was appointed president of the institution.
The first building on Radford's campus was started in 1911, and a crew of 50 men took 14 months to complete it. Founder's Hall, with its copper dome and ornate features, was one of the most notable structures between Roanoke and Bristol. The building housed administrative offices, a gymnasium, auditorium, library, and classrooms and was dedicated on August 9, 1913, just before the September 17 start of the school's first session.

Non-Stress Testing (NST)
Non-Stress Testing involves using a fetal monitor to listen to the fetus's heart rate and measure uterine contractions. It is known that a healthy baby will increase its heart rate when it moves. This test is performed when your doctor/midwife is concerned that the placenta may not be functioning well. Typical reasons for NSTs include postdate pregnancies, suspected poor fetal growth, medical problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes in the mother, or previous pregnancy complications.

Anesthesia is broken down into three main categories: local, regional, and general, all of which affect the nervous system in some way and can be administered using various methods and different medications.
Here's a basic look at each kind:
The anesthesiologist will be there before, during, and after the operation to monitor the anesthetic and ensure you constantly receive the right dose. With general anesthesia, the anesthesiologist uses a combination of various medications to do things like:
To better understand how the different types of anesthesia work, it may help to learn a little about the nervous system. If you think of the brain as a central computer that controls all the functions of your body, then the nervous system is like a network that relays messages back and forth from it to different parts of the body. It does this via the spinal cord, which runs from the brain down through the backbone and contains threadlike nerves that branch out to every organ and body part.
Often, anesthesiologists may give a person a sedative to help them feel sleepy or relaxed before a procedure. Then, people who are getting general anesthesia may be given medication through a mask or breathing tube first and then given an IV after they're asleep. Why? Because many people are afraid of needles and may have a hard time staying still and calm.
The type and amount of anesthesia given to you will be specifically tailored to your needs and will depend on various factors, including:
The anesthesiologist can discuss the options available, and he or she will make the decision based on your individual needs and best interests.

Cheese, Tulips, Windwills...and Webbies?
Picture: (back row) Christopher Rose, Matt Donatelli, Leah Sosa, Ryan Pfeiffer, John Nonemaker, Sam Waterhouse and Mark Martecchini (front row): Kierstin Del Valle '13 and Katie Whalen '11
By: John Nonemaker '10
On Super Bowl Eve 2012, a day more commonly known this year as Saturday, February 4th, nine Webb graduates and Winter Work students, representing the classes of 1979, 2008, 2010, 2011, and 2013 braved the unusually frigid temperatures and gathered for the second annual Webb family reunion in the Netherlands. Four other Webbies were in the region and wanted to attend but because of a recent snowstorm and other commitments weren't able to make it. Mark Martecchini '79 and his wife Laurie hosted the dinner at their house in Rotterdam and cooked a delicious baked salmon feast. Since most of the Webbies in attendance were graduate and winter work students, it was a rare opportunity to take a break from our college diets and enjoy a nice home-cooked meal.
There was no shortage of entertainment, as everyone in attendance was a bit of a raconteur and shared their own funny stories and anecdotes about experiences at Webb and various travel adventures. The evening also gave everyone a chance to talk about more serious issues such as the future of Webb, the job market for recent graduates, and the pros and cons of living abroad.
Whether it is due to the slow job market, the allure of international travel, or the laidback attitude towards certain vices, Europe, especially the Netherlands, has become a hotspot for Webbies in recent years as many have been venturing across the pond in search of career, winter work, and graduate school opportunities. Popular universities for graduate studies among Webbies include TU Delft, NTNU in Norway, and the University of Southampton in the UK.
Leah Sosa, class of 2008, spoke of her experience in Delft, saying "studying at TU Delft has been a great experience so far. I'm developing a much more global perspective of the field of naval architecture and marine engineering which I believe is important for such an international industry."
Mark Martecchini, the host of the Webb get-together, is particularly excited about what this recent trend could mean for Webb Institute, stating that "what we are all doing here in the Netherlands is the international broadening of the Webb world that is essential to the future success of its graduates and thus the school."
Back in Rotterdam, as the clock was about to strike midnight, we thanked our hosts for a wonderful evening and departed, promising to continue this newly founded tradition in the future. Most of the Webbies then took Rotterdam by storm. After an adventurous night of bar hopping and singing Dutch folk ballads with newly made Dutch friends, we still managed to crawl into our beds before the sun came up…...but only because winter nights in Europe are exceptionally long.
We all look forward to future Webb reunions here in the Netherlands and hope to see the Webb presence in Europe remain strong. Until next time, or as the Dutch say, tot de volgende keer!

First, let me start off this thread by stating that NO, I am not having bad thoughts.
What I am looking for is a website that can help you keep all necessary information in one place for loved ones should the inevitable occur. There are different websites that all list different items that you should keep records of. The issue I have is, putting it all in one place.
I want to be able to give my family a "one stop shop" to go to in the event that something occurs. Storing things like account numbers, scheduled payments, scanned copies of important documents, a password vault (I've seen several topics discussing this on doco at one point or another. Things focused on are what happens to your digital life when your physical life ends, passwords, etc.)
Can anyone recommend an ESTABLISHED service that provides these services? I would rather not jump onto a new player just to spend a lot of time and have the service shut down, as I've seen with a few of these like the old iDeparted. A big name would be nice, one that has some backing across the world.
Any thoughts?
AGAIN, This is for planning only. The only time I think negative thoughts is when on IRC engaging a particular admin ;-)

Flu symptoms can cause a world of misery, from fever and cough to sore throat, nasal congestion, aches, and chills. But there are ways to feel better.
Prescription antiviral medications may help ease symptoms of both seasonal and H1N1 flu when taken shortly after you get sick. In many cases, however, simple home remedies may be all you need for relief of mild to moderate flu symptoms.
WebMD asked experts to suggest 10 natural remedies for flu:
1. Drink up. The flu can leave you dehydrated, especially if fever is accompanied by vomiting or diarrhea. So be sure to get enough fluids. Water is fine. So are fruit juices, soda, and electrolyte beverages. You may want to stay away from caffeinated drinks, because caffeine is a diuretic. Herbal tea with honey can soothe a sore throat. If you feel nauseated, try taking small sips of liquids -- gulps might cause you to throw up. How can you be sure you're getting enough fluid? Your urine should be pale yellow, almost colorless.
How about drinking alcohol? No way. "When you have the flu, the last thing you want to do is drink alcohol," says William Schaffner, MD, chairman of preventive medicine at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, Tenn. "It makes you sleepy, and flu does that already."
2. Sip some soup. For generations, caring parents have been serving chicken soup to kids with colds and flu. But was mom right? Possibly. A 2000 study published in the journal Chest showed that chicken soup may help relieve symptoms of upper respiratory tract infections.
"I believe that chicken soup does help with symptoms," says Reid B. Blackwelder, MD, professor of family medicine at the James H. Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University in Kingsport. But not all doctors agree that chemistry alone explains the soup's apparent benefits. "When you lean over a bowl of hot chicken soup and the vapor gets up your nose, you feel better," says Schaffner. "But some [of the benefit] is clearly emotional. It just makes you feel better having someone make soup for you."
3. Be a couch potato. The advice may be clichéd, but it's sound: Listen to your body. If it's telling you not to exercise, don't. If it's urging you to spend all day in bed, do. Don't press on with daily responsibilities even in the face of severe cold or flu symptoms. Rest is "another way of supporting the body's ability to fight infection," says Blackwelder.
And don't skimp on nighttime sleep. "Good sleep cycles help the immune system work well, so it's important to get your full eight hours of sleep each night," says Schaffner.
4. Humidify. Breathing moist air helps ease nasal congestion and sore throat pain. One effective strategy is to indulge in a steamy shower several times a day -- or just turn on the shower and sit in the bathroom for a few minutes, inhaling the steam. Another is to use a humidifier. Clean it regularly to make sure it's free of mold and other impurities.
5. Pitch a tent. Need a quick way to open clogged airways? Bring a pot of water to a boil and remove it from the heat. Drape a towel over your head, close your eyes, and lean over the water under the "tent," breathing deeply through your nose for 30 seconds. David Kiefer, MD, clinical instructor of family medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, recommends adding a drop or two of peppermint or eucalyptus oil to the water for extra phlegm-busting power. Repeat this as often as necessary to ease congestion. People with asthma should not use this method of decongestion.
6. Try a warm compress. On the forehead and nose, a warm cloth is a great way to relieve headache or sinus pain.
7. Be a sucker. Cough drops, throat lozenges, and hard candy can be surprisingly effective at easing a cough or sore throat. Some doctors, including Kiefer, swear by lozenges containing slippery elm. Others recommend zinc lozenges to help shorten cold symptoms -- though Schaffner is not convinced of their effectiveness. "If there is an effect [against colds and flu], it's a small one," he says. "I wish their effect were as good as their taste is bad."
8. Swish and spit. Gargling with salt water helps get rid of the thick mucus that can collect at the back of the throat, especially after you've been lying down. It can also help ease stuffy ears by opening clogged eustachian tubes, Kiefer tells WebMD in an email.
9. Try nasal irrigation. To ease stuffiness and post-nasal drip -- and perhaps cut the risk of developing a sinus infection -- some doctors recommend nasal irrigation. You can buy a neti pot in natural foods stores and some drugstores, or opt for a saline squeeze bottle. You pour salt water into one nostril and let it run out the other, clearing out your nasal passages. You can buy pre-made saline solution or make it by mixing salt and lukewarm water.
10. Line up a caregiver. A caregiver can't lower your temperature or cure a sore throat, but "having someone to tuck you into bed and bring you fluids is very comforting," says Blackwelder. If a friend or family member offers to help, even if it's only to stop by and check in on you, count your blessings -- and take them up on it.

10 Songs To Practice Your Air Guitar Skills To
January 17, 2014 via Pepsi
10 Songs To Practice Your Air Guitar Skills To
There are countless songs out there that are catchy, and plenty still that can might make you want to strum an acoustic on a college quad. We could've left this list at that. But we thought we'd dig past the requisite "Smoke on the Water" and "Sunshine of Your Love" that all guitar students seem to learn, and find songs that poke and prod that insatiable urge to participate in the music, to strum, wail, and shred along with the artists on record. Whether you play guitar or not, these select tunes by iconic artists will inspire you to plug in and turn up.
1. Pixies, "Where Is My Mind"
Catapulted into pop consciousness thanks to the iconic closing scene of Fight Club, the Pixies' "Where Is My Mind" is instantly infectious. Lead guitarist Joey Santiago does his thing, employing a Tao-like minimalist appreciation of the guitar solo, making every note count. Layered with Frank Black's charismatic rhythm guitar and Kim Deal's backing "oo-ooos", this song is a timeless representation of how awesome the Pixies are. Just bring Kim Deal back on bass please.
2. Delicate Steve, "Butterfly"
Relatively new to the scene, Delicate Steve is a somewhat-reclusive guitar virtuoso who released two albums on David Bryne's Luaka Bop label. You could compare him to worldly sampling riffers Rattatat or now defunct Baltimore exuberant math-rock duo Ponytail, but his guitar playing is utterly unique. A friend recently described his style of playing as making his guitar sing, and I couldn't agree more. The complexity and soul that he's able to convey in his guitar-playing is straight up electric.
3. Chic, "Le Freak"
This disco-funk classic is all about iconic producer Nile Rodger's dexterous matter-of-fact funk chords. Rodgers employs his signature chord inversions technique, playing chords in different shapes to emphasize different notes. Practically the entire second half of the song is instrumental, graciously leaving you space to practice your best guitar solos. And if you somehow get tired of playing guitar, do the obvious, and just boogie.
4. Queens of the Stone Age, "No One Knows"
Queens of the Stone Age hit their stride with the release of breakthrough album "Songs For The Deaf," confidently striking the elusive bullseye between the textural, heavy grind of stoner metal and the melodic dexterity and propulsion of more popular rock. A perfect example may be "No One Knows," which has the arid up-down jaunt of a desert jackrabbit, transforming into a charging bull of a riff during the chorus, only to bleed into a roaring solo the second time through, with Josh Homme reminding the listener why he is untouchable when it comes to guitar-playing.
5. Modest Mouse "Ocean Breathes Salty"
One of Modest Mouse's more accessible cuts, it also remains one of their strongest, and pits their signature Pacific Northwestern existential angst against a super catchy major chorus backed by a cheap-sounding keyboard riff. The song is also one of those rare tracks secretly loaded with solos throughout that add plenty of melody but never get in the way. "Ocean Breathes Salty" still finds Isaac Brock as an equally-talented lyricist and guitarist, peppering solos with his signature whammy bar bends that softly burn his name into the track itself.
6. Radiohead, "2+2=5"

Goodafternoon, everyone!!
So, this is the latest of my Cast Iron welding videos... I repaired a "crack" in a transmission housing without any kind of a preheat, or a post-heat:
Basically, Cast Iron cracks when it's heated and/or cooled rapidly, hence the reason why its usually pre-heated and allowed to cool slowly, but theres a chance that you can get around this by just not getting it very hot...
I used a Nickel-99 electrode to make welds under 1" in length, which I then peened and allowed to cool completely, so that I could run my fingers directly over the weld, at which point I ran another short weld using the "back-stepping" technique, and repeated...
This is a technique that can be used with any of the main electric arc welding processes... I've seen it done with TIG using stainless filler, and I've heard of people having success with it running MIG , again with stainless filler...
Its just a little technique that I heard of, and had to try, I made a video about it and just thought i'd share... Doesnt seem like a bad way to weld a cracked engine block or something along those lines...
Well, hope you guys like the video... Have a great week, everyone!!

"No-PreHeat" Cast Iron Repair Technique

If the surrounding cast iron isn't pre-heated and post-heated, this "high carbon steel" weld deposit is effectively "quenched" by the surrounding cast iron, which quickly draws the heat out of the weld deposit.
This "quenching" causes the weld deposit to get much harder and less ductile than normal mild steel, and when everything shrinks after the welding is done, the lack of ductility in the weld deposit causes cracks.
This is one of the reasons nickel electrodes are used ... because nickel is far more ductile than cast iron or even mild steel, and because adding carbon from the cast iron into the (mostly nickel) weld deposit doesn't have the same hardening effect as with a normal steel electrode.
Anyway, long story short, pre-heat and post-heat is probably always going to be the better bet...IMHO.
Again, I'm far from an expert, so if this isn't accurate, someone please correct/clarify. And thanks for posting up ChuckE2009, your videos are great...

Yes, I don't doubt that mild steel electrodes are far from an ideal way to weld cast iron (even tho I've welded it with 7018 before), but these are expensive nickel electrodes, Ni-99s to be exact, which helps with it.
Im sure cracking is caused in part by what you describe, but its also largly because cast iron doesnt bend... It can't "distort" from heat input like mild steel can, thus then you weld it and dont manage the heat input, it "pulls" the weld apart just from stress.

I think the point of the video wasn't how to do it the 'best' way when one had all the right equipment, etc. but how one could perform this task in less than ideal conditions when the immediate need was present.
Keep 'em coming Lance! Once more the only thing I find wrong with your videos is there aren't enough of them. :-) I don't know what I'd do without you and Jody at weldingtipsandtricks.==============

I do it 2-3 times a week. The rod specs set whether it needs preheat or not. I don't just use any old flea market rod or old rods from an old shop i get quality rods and most of them don't require preheat but i do cool it as slow as i can with insulation.

Cast iron cracks, especially on something like a cast iron engine block because the material around the weld is constrained. When the weld is made the material is superheated and expands (you can't weld it cold, your arc is around 2500 degrees) this expanding material has no where to grow so instead the material thickens, as it cools back down the thickened material tries to go back its original shape and pulls the surrounding material causing a crack.Miller syncrowave 200 runner with coolmate 4

There was a fantastic video on YouTube on the topic that demonstrated the problem with trying to weld a constrained cast iron crack. The proper way to fix one is to dril tap and pin the crack with overlapped threaded "pins"Miller syncrowave 200 runner with coolmate 4

Prob 90% of my cast repair now is with a mig and Crown Alloys 44-30 cast iron mig wire. I can do repairs that a few years ago i just dreamed about. Here is a tractor manifold i fixed for my neighbor. Yes i know a new one is only 39 bucks but i wanted to try out the wire. I welded it cold with the mig building up the bad area and he filed it to suit. He said the tractor has never been so quiet. I welded a BB Chevy for a guy 2 states away and he drove the block to me to fix. The repair took 15 minutes and he drove 11 hours to get it to me...BobBob Wright, Grandson of Tee Nee Boat Trailer Founder

the most important thing this gentleman mentioned is the back stepping technique, one should always weld in the direction of weld that is cooling, not the opposite, a weld that is building heat, this technique works great on long butt welds

TEAMtalk looks at the contenders for the Chelsea job and how the bookies are pricing them up after Roberto Di Matteo was sacked on Wednesday.
Chelsea have sacked manager Roberto Di Matteo in the wake of their 3-0 Champions League defeat at Juventus on Tuesday night.
The Italian has paid the price for a poor run of recent results in both the Premier League and Europe, with the loss in Turin leaving them on the brink of being the first reigning Champions League winners to be eliminated in the group stage.
Here, we look at the contenders to fill Di Matteo's shoes, and their odds with the bookmakers (as of noon on Wednesday).
Currently without a job, Benitez has built a good track record at Valencia and Liverpool, although his reputation took a hit following a brief and unsuccessful spell at Inter Milan. The Spaniard was the bookies' favourite to replace former Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas, who was sacked earlier this year, after reports of contact with the club, but a lack of recent activity might count against him.
The former Barcelona manager has long been rumoured as the ideal candidate for Blues owner Roman Abramovich. Not only does Guardiola boast an impressive CV - in four years with the Catalan giants he won three Primera Division titles and the Champions League twice - but he was also the mastermind behind their much admired style of free flowing football. The former Spain international is currently on a year-long sabbatical from football.
Redknapp was considered one of the contenders when Villas-Boas was sacked but was thought to be involved in a club-v-country tug of war between Tottenham and England. However, the Football Association instead appointed Roy Hodgson and Spurs unceremoniously sacked the 65-year-old despite him leading the London club to fourth in the Premier League last season. His credentials are unquestioned however and will find backing from at least one man at the club - nephew Frank Lampard.
Grant may have only been a John Terry penalty kick away from winning the Champions League with Chelsea, but his subsequent experiences in football make him a rank outsider for a return to Stamford Bridge - despite his good relationship with Abramovich.
Three days after the 2008 final in Moscow, Grant was sacked by the Blues. Since then, he has managed Portsmouth and West Ham in the Premier League (both clubs were relegated) and although he guided Partizan Belgrade to a fifth consecutive Serbian championship last season, the 57-year-old Israeli is unlikely to be heading back to west London.
The Dutchman would have been an overwhelming favourite for the post if he was not at the ambitious Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala. He previously stepped into the breach when the Blues parted company with Luiz Felipe Scolari and made a big impression on the playing staff, while maintaining positive relations with Abramovich. Should there be a get-out clause in his Anzhi contract, Chelsea would surely be willing to pay.
The self-styled 'Special One' was the longest-serving manager at Chelsea under Abramovich and brought them their first Premier League title in 50 years in the 2004-05 season. However, his defensive brand of football left him at odds with Abramovich and, following a poor run of results at the start of the 2007-08 season, he left the club by mutual consent. Mourinho went on to win the league, cup and Champions league treble with Inter Milan before joining Real Madrid. Mourinho is believed to be unsatisfied at the Santiago Bernabeu, however, and has long made it known that he wants a return to the Premier League.
Also listed: Fabio Capello 25/1; David Moyes 28/1; Eddie Newton, Steve Clarke, John Terry 33/1; Alan Curbishley, Marcelo Bielsa, Dan Petrescu, Gus Poyet, Gianfranco Zola 40/1; Frank Lampard, Sven-Goran Eriksson, Andriy Shevchenko, David Beckham, Cesare Prandelli, Laurent Blanc, Roberto Martinez, Alan Pardew, Jurgen Klinsmann, Brendan Rodgers, Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka 50/1.

ripe but firm avocados, diced
1/2 cup
chopped green onion
1/2 cup
chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup
chopped roma (plum) tomatoes
1 (11 ounce) can
shoepeg corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can
black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup
red wine vinegar
1/4 cup
olive oil
1 teaspoon
ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon
minced garlic
salt and black pepper to taste
I could not stop eating this - it was SO good! Left out the green onions due to personal taste and cut the amount of oil to make it a little healthier. I've never heard of "shoepeg" corn before and I found it with the other regular canned corn. I think using regular yellow corn would change the taste so find shoepeg if possible! This might be my new "go-to" party appetizer. LOVED it!!!! Thanks for sharing!
I find that this needs more flavour.

This was very good. I couldn't find black eyed peas, so I substituted black beans. I'll definitely make it again, but next time I'll spice it up with with some jalapenos or chili peppers to add some heat for us.
Very healthy and delicious. Loaded with fiber and protein, but tastes wonderful. I did not have the required vinegar, so I used white wine and a little bit of white vinegar. I also doubled the spices because I'm a spice nut. Cut down Olive Oil by a little more than half. The recipe didn't need to be changed, I just did to acclimate it to our dietary needs. Simply wonderful!
This was really good - I usually hate black eyed peas, but we've always had to eat them on NY so this year I found a way to make them go down easier! I couldn't find shoepeg corn, so I just used regular and it worked fine.
I substituted basil for the cilantro, cutting it down to 1/4 cup due to personal preference. You can't understand how good this was unless you could see how distended my belly is :)
Made according to recipe. Was very good. We had it as a salad for New years, and then used the leftovers as a salsa on some tacos. Everyone liked it!
No complaints about this one...Absolutely delicious! I wouldn't change a thing.

"A great alternative to regular chili. This dish has a unique taste that even the pickiest eater will enjoy. Make sure you spice this one to taste! Garnish with cheese, salsa, sour cream and cilantro leaves, and serve with rolled tortillas on the side."

onion, chopped
3 cloves
garlic, minced
1 1/2 pounds
ground turkey
2 (4 ounce) cans
canned green chile peppers, chopped
1 tablespoon
ground cumin
1 tablespoon
dried oregano
1 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
ground cayenne pepper to taste
ground white pepper to taste
3 (15 ounce) cans
cannellini beans
5 cups
chicken broth
2 cups
shredded Monterey Jack cheese
I've made this chili recipe at least 5 times and it just gets better and better. I always add extra cayenne pepper and cinammon to give it additional flavor, and I add a small can of corn. Mixing both black and white beans is a good touch too. And don't forget to reduce the amount of chicken broth to your desired thickness!
I liked the different use of beans in this chili, instead of simply subsituting ground turykey for ground beef. I doubled the garlic, cumin and oregano, cut the chicken broth to 2 cups (I didn't want soup), omitted the jack cheese (I didn't have any) and simmered on the stove for hours to let the flavors blend. Served with mini corn bread muffins. When trying new recipes, I usually ask my husband: 'is this a make-agin?' The answer was 'yes'

I only used 1/2 of the cinnamon called for and am glad; I think using the full amount would have been too much, but with half of it, it created a really nice complex flavor with the cumin and the green chiles. Also, I drained and rinsed the beans, I always do this because it helps reduce some of the sodium in canned beans and it gets rid of that yucky starchy gooey liquid. Even without the bean liquid, I still only used 3 cups of stock and that was plenty. I did mash one can of beans with a fork instead of pureeing it, and I only added about 1/2 cup of cheese to the soup. I didn't think it was necessary to put 2 cups of cheese in it and add all that fat; I left the rest of the cheese out for us to add a little to each of our bowls. My husband ate three bowls of this the first night, so it is definitely a keeper, and I didn't think I would like white chili. what a great surprise!
Definitely the best recipe I've found for white chili. I substituted diced chicken pieces for the ground turkey; added more beans; & since i didn't have green chilies, substituted Pepper Jack cheese for the Monterey jack & added a little Chipotle Chili Pepper for some zing. It's the combination of seasonings that make this dish so awesome. If you're tempted to leave out the cinnamon...DON'T! Threw some corn starch in to thicken, simmered for about 30 min.& served with rice,sour cream, extra cheese & corn chips. Thanks Donna
This recipe makes excellent white chili when slightly modified. The first time I made it I followed the recipe to the letter and it came out way too soupy with too much of a cinammon taste. I reduced the broth to 3 cups and the cinammon to a half teaspoon, per other reviews, and it was AWESOME! I took it to a chili potluck and got several compliments.
This was outstanding. I did make some changes. I used crushed red pepper (all I had), I omitted the cinnamon and green chilies (I do not like the taste) and instead of the white beans I used mild chili beans. I also took other advice and only used about 1 15oz. can of chicken broth. That was the real clincher on the taste. It was wonderful. I would definetly make it again and again. Even my 2 year old ate it and wanted more.
My husband liked the flavor of this better than regular chili. To be honest, I was skeptical of the cinnamon, put it in anyway and didn't tell my husband. I used diced chicken breasts instead of the ground turkey because that is what i had on hand. it has really good flavor. I just wish that it was thicker like regular chili instead of like a bean soup. *7/03, made this again and subbed 3/4 cup uncooked rice for the beans and the liquid the same. Not chili anymore, but a really great spicy chicken and rice soup.
I made this weeks ago and feel I've done a great disservice by not praising it immediately! I truly loved it both times I made it. I went w/ advice from others to cut down on the broth and only used 2 cups. It was soo cold out, so I made cornbread with it for a perfect meal.

There should be no restrictions on the security that would prevent the RMU from ultimately converting those assets to cash; the security should be marketable, and the security should not generate any undesirable tax consequences, nor cash calls, nor create a net liability for the university.
RMU encourages alumni and friends to make bequests to the university under their wills and trusts, and to disclose their bequest intentions to the Office of Institutional Advancement in writing to ensure that the university is able to carry out their wishes and that the gifts conform to the principles in this Gift Acceptance Policy. Gifts from estates of deceased donors that do not conform to RMU's policies may be accepted or rejected pursuant to the procedures outlined above, and such decision communicated to the legal representative of the estate.

Tangible Personal Property
RMU may accept tangible personal property as a gift. The property must be saleable and the donor must agree that it can be sold, but the university has sole discretion whether or not the item is sold or put to a use related to its exempt purposes. The donor is responsible for establishing the value of the gift. If the perceived value is over $5,000, the donor is required to obtain a qualified appraisal and submit a copy to the university as well as submit an IRS Form 8283.
Gifts of tangible personal property shall be examined in light of the following criteria:
Gifts of automobiles and other types of vehicles can be considered and will be evaluated per the above criteria. Other criteria considered before accepting a vehicle or other tangible personal property may include transportation and storage costs, cost of insurance, selling, maintenance or repair.

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could help with a small (hopefully) change to the Platebuffs addon. I'm using a combination of Headline/Platebuffs to show my debuffs on nameplates, but would like to have the debuff icons slightly spaced apart from one another.
I've looked through the Platebuffs code, and can do simple things like changing fonts, etc, but I can't see any options for icon spacing.
If anybody out there knows how to do this, any help will be much appreciated!
