Oil Rises as U.S. Crude Stockpiles May Shrink for a Fifth Week
Oil rose from a two-day low in New York as investors bet declining stockpiles and signs of economic recovery in the U.S. indicated fuel demand is strengthening in the world's biggest crude consumer.
Futures climbed as much as 0.9 percent after the American Petroleum Institute said inventories dropped 3.2 million barrels last week, more than a median 2.5 million forecast in a Bloomberg News survey before an Energy Department report today. Prices also advanced before data tomorrow that may show the U.S. added more jobs in June. Morgan Stanley said it is bullish on oil in the second half of 2011 as production capacity falls.
"The inventory numbers and euphoric buying is probably what's helping crude higher," said Jonathan Barratt, a managing director of Commodity Broking Services Pty in Sydney, who predicts oil will average $100 a barrel this year. "The big numbers are the employment data. The market is focused on positive numbers and if they don't get it, it'll be the last nail in the coffin. China is slowing and Europe is a mess."
Crude for August delivery gained as much as 83 cents to $97.48 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It was at $97.28 at 2:13 p.m. Singapore time. Yesterday, the contract fell 24 cents to $96.65, the lowest since July 1. Prices are 31 percent higher in the past year.
Brent crude for August settlement on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange increased 44 cents, or 0.4 percent, to $114.06 a barrel. The European benchmark contract was at a premium of $16.76 to U.S. futures. The difference reached a record $22.29 on June 15.
Brent Spread
Brent's premium to U.S. crude may widen to at least $40 a barrel between now and the middle of 2012, according to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. Increased output from western Canada and the U.S. mid-continent has led to near-record supplies at Cushing, Oklahoma, the delivery point for New York-traded West Texas Intermediate, the bank said in a note yesterday.
While prices of light, sweet crude may decline in "coming weeks", Morgan Stanley remains bullish on the outlook for oil in the second half of the year, the bank said in an e-mailed report. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. today reiterated its long-trading recommendation for Brent futures.
U.S. crude inventories decreased 0.7 percent from 359.5 million barrels in the week ended July 1, according to the median estimate of 15 analysts surveyed. That would be a fifth weekly drop, the longest decline since January.
U.S. Stockpiles
Gasoline stockpiles probably slid 150,000 barrels from 213.2 million last week, based on the survey. Distillate-fuel supplies, a category that includes heating oil and diesel, are expected to have risen 900,000 barrels from 142.3 million.
The Energy Department is scheduled to release its weekly report at 11 a.m. in Washington, a day late because of the Fourth of July holiday.
Oil may extend gains in New York if futures settle above technical resistance marked by a Bollinger Band, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The middle band on the daily chart is at $96.97 a barrel today. A breach of resistance usually means prices will rise further.
Nonfarm payrolls climbed by 100,000 workers after an increase in May that was the smallest in eight months, according to the median forecast of economists surveyed before a Labor Department report tomorrow. The jobless rate probably held at 9.1 percent.
Oil also gained today as Japanese machinery orders climbed at the fastest pace in fourth months, as companies increased spending to rebuild after the March 11 earthquake. Japan is the world's third-largest crude user.

Hi, I'm using a child theme for twenty eleven but thought this would be a more general issue.
I've managed to include custom navigation for my category posts by calling a function like this
<?php blah_pagination(); ?> from within the category.php template.
The function itself resides in functions.php and looks like this: http://pastebin.com/G1TNrTnv
For some reason it cannot be called in the same way from the single post (single.php and content-single.php) template.
Is there another, improved way to do this? Why won't it work?
My php skills are limited and I'm done guessing...

Springfield, Missouri (February 26, 2008)--According to a report by the Congressional Sportsman's Foundation if the $76 billion sportsmen spend nationally on hunting and fishing were the gross domestic product of a country, sportsmen as a nation would rank 57 out of 181 countries. Clearly, the economic impact of sportsmen is a force to be reckoned with.
In fact, in many states, sportsmen spend more money, support more jobs and pay more taxes than most industries and attractions in the state. For example, Florida sportsmen support more jobs than Disney World, and the annual spending by Florida anglers is three times greater than the cash receipts from the state's orange crop. That spending results in some 85,000 jobs, $2.5 billion paid in salaries and wages, $608 million in Federal taxes, and $484 million in state and local taxes.
In Texas, sportsmen support twice the jobs as Dell Computer Corporation, Lockheed Martin, Electronic Data Systems, and Dow Chemical Company combined (106,000 jobs vs 49,000). Annual spending by Texas sportsmen is greater than the combined cash receipts from the state's cotton, greenhouse/nursery, broilers, dairy and corn production, ($6.6 billion vs. $6.1 billion).
These are big numbers. And there's a way to help build on this already huge economic impact – and help children – by supporting the Anglers' Legacy program. Anglers' Legacy, which is a program created by the Recreational Boating and Fishing Alliance, asks anglers to share their knowledge and expertise by taking a novice fishing in the next year. Every new person who takes up fishing funnels an average of $268 into their community each year.
During the Bass Pro Shops Spring Fishing Classic (Feb. 29 through March 16), adults can stop by Bass Pro Shops and sign up to take the pledge. By doing so, it will help build a legacy for tomorrow, create a positive impact in the life of a child and benefit the local economy.
Another program that will benefit both adults and children is the Bass Pro Shops Reel Trade-In on March 6-9. Customers can bring in their old reels to donate and they'll receive a discount on their new reel purchase. The old reels are then donated to a not-for-profit group designated by the store whose mission is to supply disadvantaged children with gear for fishing.
Statistics are from the Congressional Sportsman's Foundation report "Hunting and Fishing: Bright Stars of the American Economy ~ A force as big as all outdoors." It can be accessed online at www.sportsmenslink.org.

Oh, too bad. We're going up to Qualicum Wednesday to spend the day at this amazing beach dh's family has known about forever. Close, but not close enough I guess. Enjoy the Island - the weather was pretty bad today, but is supposed to be nice for the rest of the week.
Has anyone ever had American Apparel baby lap tees? They have so many awesome non-pastel colors that I am very tempted to get a few to try out. I love using longies all the time- and onsies are so worthless even with an AIO. But the cute long sleeve lap tees- those are awesome- and so hard to find..... Any one with a personal review?

I know I'm not good at drawing, but I would say that only two things are bad. One is the black thing on the left hand side of the picture next to the girl, and the other is, what appears to be, the rocks behind her. Everything else looks amazing!! I love the cat ears and the background. The look as a whole is just beautiful. The colors are another great factor. They seem so soothing and the red in the girl's dress gives the picture a very balanced look. Just absolutely amazing! Great job. Maybe you could teach me some of your tricks and give me hints on drawing.

This is extremely well done, it is artists like you who I hope to one day have even half the skill of. Everything flows wonderfully and no matter where you look you are led back to her face.

Excellent work. Good details on the katana and the yukata.

new to using WP and figuring my way around the 'canyon' theme we are using.
anyone know how i can go in and change
fonts ?
allowing bold and italics ?
upper/lower case ? (or allowing for both upper/lower case)
i know where the codes for the theme are located and have gone in an deleted some sections that were included in this theme but dont know how to change the fonts.
for instance in the header all the text is in all caps - would like to change it to upper/lower case letters.
the font that is standard w/ the theme looks very dry and doesn't allow for bolding etc

All the hype after the opening night win, AT HOME, pretty much said this would
the best jazz team ever. Great outside shooting, deep bench, taller players,
point guards who push the ball, blah, blah, blah.
The one thing the hype didn't address though, is the same, old tired philosophy of not defending the three point shot, horrible interior defense by Jefferson and second rate effort by the entire team on the road. It's the second game of the season, so how can they be tired, or road weary, or whatever excuse they offer up.
As I see it, the faces have changed, but this is the same old Jazz. You know the saying about putting lipstick on a pig, well this version of the Jazz aptly fits that description.

Same old Jazz fans that can't find anything positive about the team. Maybe it is not the team that needs to be changed, but the fans. I am actually really happy to have a local professional sports team to pull for. What's more, they are usually pretty good (better than half the west most years, and the west is always dominant). Can we just appreciate what we have rather than whining about being above average? There are far worse teams in the league that could be in Utah.

text: 996 FXUS63 KARX 280900 AFDARX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service La Crosse WI 400 AM CDT THU JUL 28 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 400 AM CDT Thu Jul 28 2016 At 3 AM, a weak surface low was located near La Crosse WI. A weak warm front extended east of this low across central Wisconsin. Showers and isolated thunderstorms were located across western Wisconsin north of Interstate 90. For today, a slow moving upper level low and inverted trough will move south across the Upper Mississippi River Valley. The surface-based CAPES along and south of Interstate 90 corridor are forecast to climb into the 1000 to 2500 J/kg range this afternoon. The highest values are located across southwest Wisconsin. This makes sense, because this area has the highest probability of seeing some sunshine today. Due to these surface-based CAPES and weak cyclonic lift, scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop across the area. The strongest low level convergence looks to be a across the southern half of Wisconsin, so there is some concern that the precipitation chances may be too high west of the Mississippi River. This is likely the reason why many of the meso models are currently not showing many showers and storms in those areas today. While 0-3 km and 0-6 km shear continue to remain very weak today, there is a concern for the potential non-supercell tornadoes this afternoon and evening along a nearly stationary west to east boundary across southern Wisconsin. This boundary will be likely located near or south of Interstate 90. Along this boundary, the NAM and RAP show that the 0-2 km lapse rates will be around 8C/km, the 0-3 km CAPES will be in the 200 to 250 J/kg range, and there will be moderate surface relative vorticity. Due to this, the non-supercell tornado parameter climbs to around 1. A similar boundary did produce a tornado near Chetek (Barron County) in central Wisconsin on Wednesday evening. For tonight, the inverted trough and upper level low will move slowly south into the Mid Mississippi River Valley. In addition, the surface-based CAPES will fall below 1000 J/kg. As this occurs, the areal coverage of the showers and thunderstorms south of Interstate 90 will decrease. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 400 AM CDT Thu Jul 28 2016 From Friday into Saturday, the inverted trough will extend from northern Iowa east into the Ohio River Valley. Surface-based CAPES during both afternoons will climb into the 1500 to 2500 J/kg range and there will some weak ascent below 875 mb. Due to this, kept a 20 to 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms across southwest Wisconsin and parts of northeast Iowa. From Tuesday into Wednesday, both the 28.00z GFS and ECMWF are now in agreement that a short wave trough will move through the region. This trough will push through the area and keep the very warm 925 and 850 mb temperatures well to the south of the forecast area. As a result, the high temperatures on both of those days will likely remain in the lower and mid 80s. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 1140 PM CDT Wed Jul 27 2016 With majority of showers and storms now north and east of TAF airfields, primary challenge overnight into Thursday morning will be lowering ceilings/visibility. Forecast guidance in good agreement, showing cloud bases lowering to IFR/low MVFR tonight with at least MVFR visibility in mist. These lower conditions will be very slow to improve Thursday, but expect gradual lifting into the afternoon. Scattered showers/embedded thunderstorms return late Thursday morning and through the afternoon along an inverted surface trough. Better chances may be along the MS River impacting KLSE, but introduced VCTS at both airfields through the afternoon for now. Additional refinement will be needed with later forecasts. Winds will be light through the period, generally from the north- northeast. && .ARX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... WI...None. MN...None.

I want to send SMS to a mobile phone from a web application, is it possible? How do I do it?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
closed as too broad by nhahtdh, Garis M Suero, Eric Brown, Beryllium, Andrew Sep 10 '13 at 16:54
There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
You can use this free Java sample program to send SMS from your PC using GSM modem connected to your computer to your COM port. You also need to download and install the Java comm api from Sun.
This program needs the following java files to function.
Download Send SMS Java sample program files
the easiest way to do this is to use an SMS gateway.
there are lots out there, the one i've used is Clickatel to which i simply post an XML request and the gateway does the rest for next to nothing.
i have done this using java and apache commons HTTP Client
Here you can find a Java SMS API project in source forge.
Apart from that, you need a Sms Gateway for the infrastructure. Some companies provide you APIs that it is becoming as easy as pie to make the program.
Step-1. Download Mail.jar and Activation.jar (see Resources for links) and save to the Java library directory on your computer's local drive.
Start a new Java class in your Java Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and name it "MyMobileJava.java".
Enter the following Java libraries at the start of your Java class. These libraries include the required Java Mail and Communications API resources and other supporting Input/Output and Internet class libraries for sending SMS text messages.
Step-4 Place the following Java code after the library import statements in order to instantiate the Java class and assign values for the default SMS text messages.
Step-5 Create Java code to create a new communications session that will then be used to configure the information contained within a text message. This information will then be prepared to be sent. Enter the following Java code in your Java class at the end of the code entered in step four.
Step-6 Send the text message by connecting to your SMS host address, saving changes to the message, and then sending the information. To do this, enter the following Java code to finish the Java class.
The easiest way to do this is to find an operator which supports sms's through mail..
Ex. You have Telia/Comviq/Chello or whatnot. If you send an email to; firstname.lastname@example.com it will send your email via sms to your phone.
Please have a look at SMSLib (http://smslib.org), an open source library for sending and receiving sms using a GMS modem or a mobile phone. It is really a great library.
I wrote a small maven lib for accessing the free (for customers only) web interface of the Swiss moblie operators Sunrise and Orange. You find the source on http://github.com/resmo/libjsms
Just retrieve all the cell phone Email-to-SMS (SMS Gateway) addresses and send an email to that email-to-SMS address.

I have been to numerous resorts across New England, Utah, Austria, Switzerland, and Australia, and have been skiing at Sunapee for over 10 years! In terms of size, Sunapee is the biggest in western, and southern New Hampshire, but is average compared to the other resorts in New England. I can attest to the food not being great, the Spruce Lodge being crappy, and their being nothing to do around Sunapee unless you are staying at your friends place. However, Sunapee is truly world-class in its snowmaking, and grooming, and is consistently voted as one of the top resorts in the country in that respect. For Intermediates, and Advanced skiers who want to shred on moderately steep, perfectly groomed, wide trails this is your place, and beginners have an entirely separate portion of the resort that is free of more experienced skiers and riders zooming past. I consider myself to be an expert, and contrary to popular belief, there are quite a few options for glade, and advanced skiing. If its a powder day at Sunapee, just ask ether a local, a freestyler, or a racer and they will be sure to guide you to the steep and deep stuff. Overall, most of my friends have been impressed by how well managed the mountain is, and are frequent visitors, especially considering it is only 2 hours flat from Boston.

Being from Kentucky, fried chicken has always been a mainstay on our table. This is the same recipe my family has used for generations with the exception of adding 1 teaspoon of paprika to the flour and using Crisco (used to use lard) to fry it in. The cook for my grandmother taught me to put 2 tablespoons of water in the hot fat towards the end of frying and immediately cover it with the lid to make sure it stayed moist. After the sputtering quits, then remove the lid to let the chicken "crisp up". This trick has always worked for me, but make sure you do not have your fat too close to the top of the skillet or it will be a mess.
I followed the recipe to the letter (using salted water), and the resulting chicken was crispy on the outside, and tender and juicy on the inside. Served with mashed potatoes and gravy and steamed peas. Luscious comfort food! I thought I would miss the seasonings that I normally add--thyme, paprika and granulated onion, but no! This recipe is perfect as is. Thanks Mean!
OMG,this was the best fried chicken I've ever made. I've been trying for over 40 yrs and finally had success. My DH said that it even looks like fried chicken. I didn't have time to brine overnite, just 2 or 3 hrs, but the flavor was not just in the coating but all the way thru the chicken, crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. Next time I will brine overnite. While making the gravy, rather then pouring off the hot oil, I used a metal measuring cup to scoop some drippings out and made gravy in a seperate sauce pan. Thank you for posting.

What a mess!!!
What do people think, if the reports are correct, and West Ham are to be hit with a £30m fine over the Tevez affair, and what does this judgement say about the hierarchy at the Premier League.
This whole mess has dragged on for far too long.
I am a wholehearted Blades fan, at the beginning, I felt honestly aggrieved, but accepted the arguement that we had not played well enough over the season to stay up. However, this was tempered by the obvious fact that West Ham had contravened Premier League rules over the signing of Tevez, and given the impact he had on their run in, felt that the club were right to make the challenge against West Ham. Maybe another player would have stepped up to the plate and dragged them out of the mire, but the fact is that Tevez was an illegal signing, and should not have been in the position he was to influence the outcome.
The so called Independant Arbitration Committee that was set up, agreed that rules had been broken, but in only fining the Hammers £5.5m blatantly ignored the rights of Sheff Utd, and the monies they would lose through relegation, when the obvious course of action was to deny West Ham the points accrued when Tevez had played.
I'm happy the whole affair appears to be coming to the end, but would rather have had more time in the Premier than the £30M.
For the sake of top flight football in this country, lets hope that the next time that the Premier League are required to sort something out, that they have the bottle to do the right thing, rather than take the easy way out.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I am in full agreement with your comments regarding the debacle with West Ham. However you have more faith than me that we will get the £30m.I am sure their lawyers will do everthing to sink the claim. Some new "Independant" tribunal will be elected with "Sir Trevor" in charge and come to some feeble ruling ....probably giving SUFC a fine for harrasment!!
im not a west ham fan but i think to deduct points from them would have been punishment for players of the club,including tevez , who achieved one of the great escapes , and it also would have been a tough punishment on the west ham fans, so instead of points deduction what the premier leugue should have had the balls to do was have relegation play of between the two teams would have given sheffield opportunity to stay up without people saying they were only in the premier league by default.

I can't figure out what I've done that's preventing me from editing the custom statuses Draft and Pending Review. I realize these are WordPress defaults however your screenshots of Edit Flow lead me to believe that these are editable/customizable.
I recently installed Tadlock's Manage. I'm an admin with full capabilities so I'm not sure why I have restricted access to editing these.
If I try to edit the status from the edit button on the Dashboard widget I get:
"Specified status is restricted and cannot be edited."
Suggestions for how to fix this? Thanks.

New York, California gearing up for $15 minimum wage
On April 4, the governors of New York and California signed measures that will culminate in a $15 minimum wage phased in over the next few years.
Champions of the minimum wage increases say they are important to providing workers a living wage, but foes in both states predict job losses and business failures.
New York and California became the first states to pass a $15 minimum wage, but several cities around the country already have laws putting them on the road to a $15 minimum. The federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour.

"Three of anything is enough for me."
That's the official state of the union on Men in Black 4, at least from Will Smith's perspective. In an interview with Collider, Smith was asked whether he would consider putting on his shades, suit and tie for a fourth round as alien-hunting Agent J. Based on his latest comments, it doesn't seem likely.
"We'll look at it and we'll consider it," he added, "but it feels like that it might be time to let someone else do that."
Smith's remarks on a fourth Men in Black came before the box-office results for his latest sci-fi effort, After Earth, rolled in. The M. Night Shyamalan-directed flick, starring Will and Jaden Smith as a father-son duo trapped on a far-future post-apocalyptic Earth, placed third in its opening weekend at the box office, earning a paltry $27.5 million against a reported production budget of $130 million. Perhaps Smith needs a surefire hit like the Men in Black franchise more than he realizes.
Regardless, based on the box-office results, don't expect to see an After Earth sequel anytime soon. Indeed, when Spinoff Online spoke with Shyamalan recently, the filmmaker made it clear that he wasn't even considering a sequel just yet.
M. Night should consider managing a PinkBerry. The twist could be that it looks like an ice cream shoppe, but it's really…yogurt!
a fourth men in black film would kind of be just doing the thing for the money plus the franchise after three films with almost the same story really should be left to rest a bit. espicially now that will is deciding nope not interested any more.
When you consider he held up production on MIB3 for months costing the studio millions with his diva bs. Maybe it's a good thing he's walking away from the franchise.
He is the franchise.
Have Agent J de-aged somehow and let Brandon T. Jackson take the role.

3D Technology Checklist
This product is 3D-related. To help you get a great 3D experience, use the checklist below to ensure you have everything you need. 3D viewing requires:
|A Display
First, you'll need a 3D-ready display--whether it's a 3D HDTV, 3D projector, or 3D computer monitor. These displays have more processing power than standard 2D models for displaying 3D images in rapid succession.
|A Source
Your display may be ready for 3D playback, but you'll still need a device to read 3D content. This can be a cable box with a subscription to a 3D channel, a 3D Blu-ray Disc player, or a PlayStation 3 system.
|3D Content
3D content--the actual entertainment, in other words--will be played back using the source mentioned above, whether it's a 3D broadcast from your cable provider, a 3D Blu-ray Disc, or a 3D video game.
|3D Glasses
For now, the vast majority of 3D HDTVs require glasses for 3D viewing. Many use powered "active shutter" glasses, others polarized "passive" glasses. You'll need one pair per viewer, and they'll have to be compatible with your display, whether they're the same brand, or a pair of "universal" glasses designed to work across brands.
|HDMI Cable
To connect your source (such as a 3D Blu-ray Disc player) to your display, you'll need a high-speed HDMI cable. Cables with this designation feature bandwidth speeds up to 10.2 Gbps (gigabits per second), for carrying the 3D signal without any loss of quality.
If you want to get more information about 3D, shop our 3D products, watch videos, or interact with other customers, we invite you to visit 3D 101, our customer center about everything 3D.

Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
Let me start off with a bit of context: I have had, at least briefly, five HDTVs since March 2011: a 62" Mitsubishi WD-62525 (a rear projection TV with 720p native resolution), a Panasonic TC-P55ST30 (plasma), a Samsung PN59D6500 (also a plasma), a Samsung UN55D6900 (an LED edge-lit LCD), and the Sony XBR-55HX929 (LED backlit LCD with local dimming). The Mitsubishi died in late March and I have been searching for a replacement. As you can see, I've tried out just about the full array of TV technologies. My search has ended with the Sony XBR-55HX929, and I am very happy with it. I will compare the Sony with some of the other sets I've had below.
There are a number of concerns that owners or prospective owners of the Sony have had, so let me address those. First, the build date. I ordered my set from Amazon.com on July 9, it shipped on the 13th and was delivered the 20th. It was assembled in Mexico in March 2011.
The dreaded "crease": Yes, mine has the crease (a slightly darker "line" that appears along the sides of the image on many of these Sonys, usually on the left and right, but sometimes along the top and bottom edges, about an inch in from the bezel). I have fairly faint creasing on both the left and right sides. It seems a bit darker towards the bottom of the screen.Read more ›
I would have. Seen side by side, all three of them, there was simply no comaprison and even my wife who is very uninterested commented on how much nicer the over all picture was (all sets in the store were set on vivid with no other adjustments). With even steep angle viewing the Sony lost far less than the Samsung and even the LG. The full array makes a huge difference and from 30 ft away the Sony leapt out in clarity, depth with virtually no judder (shudder, blurring) or whatever they call it. Picture is phenominal. It is as clean and pretty shut off as a TV can be. The Gorilla glass is ver nice, you can just use a nice clean rag and glass cleaner and it comes out beautiful Also while opening a cd case two fell out of my hand and hit the front. Probably wouldnt have hurt anything else but not a mark.
CONS: Why I gave it 4 stars and not five.Read more ›

Marie Callender
Mar. 26, 1907
Hennepin County
Minnesota, USA
Nov. 11, 1995
Laguna Hills
Orange County
California, USA
Entrepreneur. South Dakota native Marie Callender, literally embraced the old axiom, "Life begins at forty." In 1948, her family grown and with their help, sold her new car and used the money as operating capitol. With her son Don, spearheading the venture, rented a small World War II army Quonset hut in Long Beach, California, purchased a baking oven, refrigerator and a few implements and named the venture after his mother, "Marie Callender Pies." With Marie's recipes and guidance, the family began baking pies to be sold to area restaurants. A converted 1936 ford sedan was used to make deliveries. Two years later, from an initial order of ten pies, the family was making 200 a day. Fifteen years later, they went solo with the opening of an outlet in Orange called the Marie Callender Pie Shop. At first, only pies were served, mainly take out, but gradually it became a full fledged restaurant and pies shared the spotlight with Cornbread. Other locations were added around Southern California and their standard restaurants featured a fully stocked bar called a saloon and also a complete soup-salad bar. The interiors of the now chain of restaurants were decorated with antiques had a decorating decor reminiscent of Victorian England as well as early America. Marie retired, lived in Laguna Hills where she died from cancer at age 87. She was cremated and a memorial service was held at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove. Her urn rests in a niche in the Columbarium Room located on the church grounds. Legacy... The family owned Marie Callender chain was sold to a giant food corporation and today consist of some 160 restaurants located in the western United States and Mexico. They are still known as "Marie Callender's Pies" and still the signature item served is the created from scratch pie, originated by Marie. Marie Callender's also markets a line of frozen foods found in super markets across the country.

Palin crushes Bachmann in PolitiFact's "Lie Of The Year"
One can keep pretty busy fact-checking "lovable little fuzz ball" Michele Bachmann, but when it comes to the "Lie of the Year," she's got nothing on Sarah Palin. That's the conclusion of Pulitzer Prize-winning Web site PolitiFact's readers, who gave the honor to Mama Grizz for promulgating the idea that President Barack Obama wants to march the old and infirm in front of "death panels" to decide who lives or dies.
Of the roughly 5,000 people who voted from among the 10 lies offered, 61 percent gave top honors for this passage on Palin's Facebook page:
"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil."
The reality: The bill contained a provision allowing Medicare to pay for doctor appointments about end-of-life counseling. It was sponsored by Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore.
As for Bachmann, 3.2 percent voted of the crock that page 92 of the House health care bill "says specifically that people can't purchase private health insurance after a date certain."
That fiction was perpetrated -- where else? -- on Sean Hannity's Fox News gab fest. Hannity, you'll remember, was busted by Jon Stewart not long ago for a faked video that grossly inflated the size of the crowd at Bachmann's big anti-health care reform rally in Washington, D.C. That's the same rally that a watchdog group says may have broken House ethics rules.

Our take on the Wren V5PF
Distinctive look
The Wren V5PF wireless speaker system blurs the line between quality audio gear and fine home décor. This stylish retro-looking design features a curved cabinet, trimmed in silver. The wood veneer top and the silver speaker grille complete the look of this elegant unit.
Available with rosewood veneer (front) or bamboo wood veneer (rear).
Exceptional sound
The system features two high-performance 3/4" tweeters for clear highs and two 3" drivers for clean midrange and low tones. A bass port in the rear further reinforces the low frequencies. The V5PF's cabinet is made of MDF to minimize unwanted resonance. And the silicone pad on the bottom acts as a cushion to keep the cabinet vibration-free.
Wren's proprietary Digital Signal Processing circuitry ensures accurate signal decoding and lifelike sound reproduction. The system is powered by a built-in 50-watt Class-D amplifier. You'll experience warm, natural sound, whether playing your music at low or high volume levels.
DTS Play-Fi wireless technology
Download the free Wren Play-Fi app and you're ready to use the V5PF. Play-Fi is an innovative Wi-Fi technology developed by the audio experts at DTS that lets you stream high-fidelity music. Play-Fi allows you to send the same song to multiple components and speakers, play a different song in every room, or let each member of the family control speakers independently with their own device. Play-Fi can transmit lossless audio at CD quality to up to 16 speakers or components on your network. And your Wren V5PF can work with Play-Fi speakers from other manufacturers. So you can mix and match different brands of wireless speakers and components, offering more flexibility than closed systems.
Praise for the Wren V5 from inner|fidelity
"I've heard some reasonably good sounding devices of this type in the past... I'd say the Wren is my favorite of the bunch. It sounds great, but more importantly — it looks better in a stylish-yet-not-in-your-face sort of way."
— From John Grandberg's review in inner|fidelity, September 4, 2013

Product Research
High Performance Drivers & Amplifier: The Wren V5PF employs two 3" long-throw drivers with 4-layer voice coils to handle big power while dissipating heat. High frequencies are rendered smooth and natural by a pair of edge-driven, wide dispersion 0.75" soft dome tweeters optimally positioned on the front baffle to create a wide, realistic soundstage. The drivers are powered by Intersil's D2 Audio DSP-controlled 25 watts x 2 channel digital amplifier. DSP optimization allows you to play your music louder with more bass and less distortion.
Solid Anti-Resonance Bass Reflex Enclosure: The Wren V5PF is made from real wood, with natural bamboo or rosewood finishes instead of painted plastic. Beneath the beautiful bamboo or rosewood veneer is half-inch laminated MDF board that eliminates resonance and coloration. A precisely tuned acoustic rear-firing port extends the low end of the driver to provide power bass performance. The underside of the Wren V5PF is covered with a 4mm low durometer silicone pad that stabilizes the chassis and absorbs cabinet vibration. Wren's unique internal diamond-matrix grille design protects the drivers without distorting the sound.
DTS WiFi w/ Free Play-Fi App: Thanks to its built-in DTS WiFi, the Wren V5PF wireless speaker is compatible with Android smartphones/tablets (OS 2.2+), Apple iOS devices (6.0+), and Windows PCs (7/8/8.1). The free PlayFi-App is required for all devices.
- Built-in DTS WiFi: The Wren V5PF combines DTS audio and WiFi wireless technology to wirelessly stream high-definition "lossless" audio with no impact on sound quality from the free Wren Play-Fi app on your Android smartphone/tablet, Apple iOS device, Windows PC, or Mac computer to the speaker system. Your WiFi access point or router must be 802.11g/n in order to support one or multiple Android devices; an 802.11B only router may be used, but it will stream to only one device.
- Free Play-Fi App: You will need to download the free
Wren Play-Fi app onto your compatible
Android smartphone/tablet,
Apple iOS device, or Windows PC in order to access and stream your music
content. Music is then streamed directly over your home WiFi network from
the Wren Play-Fi App running on your compatible mobile device to the Wren
V5PF speaker. The app offers a wide range of built-in streaming options.
- play anything from your device's music library
- listen to thousands of internet radio stations
- stream music from online music service like Pandora, Spotify Connect, SiriusXM, TIDAL, Amazon Music, Songza, & Rhapsody
- enjoy songs from DLNA-compliant servers on your home network
Multi-Room Application: You can also use the Play-Fi app on your compatible Android/Kindle device to link multiple Wren V5PF speakers together (up to 8) to create an audio system for your entire home. You can stream to all the speakers at once, or let individual listeners stream different music to different parts of the house.
Aux Input: A 3.5mm auxiliary input lets you connect and play music from other audio sources, such as a portable CD player or MP3 player with an audio output or headphone output jack.
USB Charging Port: The Wren V5PF features a USB (type-A) port used to charge your smartphone or other USB-enabled portable audio device. Simply use the included microUSB-to-USB cable or the cable that came with your device to connect the V5PF's USB port. This USB port does not support audio playback.
Simple Controls: The Wren V5PF provides easy-to-use power, volume, and source buttons on the side-panel of the system. Music navigation and song/artist information will need to be done through your Android mobile device.
External AC Power Supply: The Wren V5PF operates off of standard household current using the supplied AC power adapter and cord.
- Input: 100-240V ~1.8A, 50-60Hz
- Output: 18-24V, 3.3-2.5A

I have a Static Front Page on my site. Right now that same page comes up every time my site is visited.
I'd like to choose a few of my Pages as the Static Front Page and have them randomly rotated each time my site is accessed.
So for instance, each time my site is visited, one of my selected Pages is displayed at random.
Is this possible? I've been searching for hours!
Thanks very much!

Build with Salvage
The upstairs flooring is yellow pine cut from beams salvaged from a textile mill. Using reclaimed wood avoids waste and reduces the need to cut down forests. The tight grain often found in antique wood also makes the flooring more dent-resistant and therefore more durable than faster-grown second-harvest wood.

The Man on the Street Asks If Sex and the City 2 Is '2 Much?'
We suspect our man on the street himself may think so.
It's only natural that our Tim Murphy is a little Sexed out. When the first Sex and the City movie came out, we made him wait in the middle of the night to catch the men and women who had seen the very first screening. Last August we sent him to hang out with the crazy kids auditioning to be extras in the Sex and the City sequel. So this week, when we sent him to the streets again, he had only one question for the people of downtown New York: Are we tired of Sex by now?

The successful treatment and healing of gastric ulcers involves many factors of uncertainty, reflected in the multiplicity of suggestions from therapeutists. For example, a recent writer asserts that the establishment of proper habits of eating, the avoidance of notoriously irritating articles of food which offend the gastric organ because of chemical, mechanical or thermal insults, the minimization of worry, strain and hurry— at least at meal times—the removal of infection from teeth, tonsils and accessory sinuses, the prevention of chronic constipation by regulation of diet and exercise, and the surgical removal of disease elsewhere in the abdomen are measures that tend to lower the incidence of ulcer. He adds that these are essential features in the treatment of ulcer whether surgery is employed or not.
The foregoing, by no means an antiquated statement, reads like a hygienic admonition that should favor recovery from many human maladies. It indicates how indefinite

Repsol, BG Terminals in Argentina, Chile to Receive LNG Cargoes
Repsol YPF SA's Bahia Blanca site and BG Group Plc's Quintero Bay facility in Latin America may receive at least three liquefied natural gas carriers from the Atlantic Ocean area this month, according to ship-tracking data.
Iberica Knutsen, a 135,230 cubic-meter tanker, is due to dock at Bahia Blanca in Argentina on May 25, according to AISLive on Bloomberg. Sestao Knutsen, a 135,357 cubic-meter tanker, reached the Argentinian terminal on May 10. Both vessels sailed from Point Fortin, Trinidad & Tobago. BG Group Plc's Methane Jane Elizabeth, a 145,000 cubic-meter vessel, may reach Quintero terminal on May 23, carrying supplies from Trinidad.
A ship carrying 135,344 cubic meters (4.78 million cubic feet) of gas provides sufficient fuel to heat about 12 million homes for a day, according to data from the Washington-based American Gas Association.
Latin American nations led by Argentina and Chile may be importing supplies to prepare for winter even as the U.S. and Asia reduce their appetite for spot shipments, Tony Regan, a consultant at Singapore-based Trizen International Ltd., said today. "Latin American demand is starting to get significant though they are still not a big player."
Bahia Blanca, 400 miles (645 kilometers) south of Buenos Aires, can deliver 400 million cubic feet of gas per day into pipelines and process three LNG cargoes per month of 3 billion cubic feet each.
LNG is natural gas chilled to minus 162 degrees Celsius (minus 260 degrees Fahrenheit), putting it in a liquid state for shipping by tanker. The following table lists by country of destination all the LNG tankers that have transmitted a time of arrival within the next three months, including today.
