Well "ode" may be a bit dramatic but some of my fondest memories are of sitting on the kitchen stool, watching my grandmother neatly slice up an avocado, admiring the cool green color as she tossed it on top of some lettuce, used it as a plate garnishment or smashed it on a piece of bread.
I love avocados! Sure they are a little heavy on the bottom, more often than not misunderstood for being moody and can get downright nasty if not taken care of properly. None-the-less, my love affair with avocados goes way back – firmly rooted in my Jamaican heritage. From the slices flavored with only salt and pepper that my grandmother would hand feed me as a kid to the more extravagant dishes that I now serve as an adult, avocados add a splash of color and flavor to every meal.
In fact, in Jamaica, avocados are often used in multiple ways in one sitting – as a substitute for cheese or butter, or as a vegetable, side dish or salad topping. In some other countries, avocados are treated as fruits and are often used in drinks.
My mouth still waters with anticipation at the thought of a piece of avocado accidentally mixing with my rice and peas. But I digress …
What I learned from my Jamaican mother and grandmother who are avocado lovers themselves is that nothing is wrong with a little avocado. But don't just take our word for it. Here are four more reasons to fall in love with the avocado.

I'm trying to add a new target to my Xcode project so that I can run the same app, but with subtle difference.
Please can someone guide me through the setup of a new target since it is my first time and I'm not sure how to go about doing it.
In particular, I'm interested how I make the new target run the code in the original app. When I tried creating a new target it just made a new app delegate, and viewController file.
Sorry if this is simple, I'm just quite confused.
EDIT: Please note that I'm after after instructions based in Xcode 4.

Thanks for the update. We all know the feeling, lots to do, so little time or resource ;) We might not say it enough, but we really do appreciate all the work that the C9 team do for us developers.
Of course, if you could get it ready for BUILD 2015, so I can watch the keynotes and sessions on my big-screen without having to use Play-to-Xbox of the downloaded MP4, that would be super cool.
Seeing as their web-site can't even support IE 11, then I'm not too worried about this.
I've seen these tools come and go over my entire 25 year career, even tried to write a few myself, but never found one which threatened my developer existence.
I'm all for tools that raise the abstraction layer to be closer to just concentrating on writing the bit that solves the business problem. However, there are always sometimes you need to step outside the tooling to do something, and that's when the entire thing breaks down and you have to jump through hoops to do something that would be easier if you'd just written the code yourself.
The MSDN teams organise a lot of local events,
With Build not until April. I guess there isn't a lot new they are ready to talk about. Plenty of content here already for building Universal apps for Win 8.x, which seems to be the road to supporting Windows 10 across all devices.

Arthur nn Hart?
Last night I had a vivid dream that I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy which I named Arthur, nickname... Hart!
Obviously my subconscious got a little confused as the usual nickname for Arthur is, of course, Art.
Anyway this question is just for fun... I'm not seriously considering this right now!
Do you think Arthur nn Hart could work?
I know you can pretty much use any nickname amongst family, but is this one that could work in all aspects of life?Victor | Ephraim | Phineas

Hahaha! Not the reaction I was expecting, but thank you for the medal! Obviously my subconscious is much better at this naming thing than I am
I'm afraid I had to google Hart Bochner, I don't believe I've seen anything he's been in.

I click a letter and it jumps successfully to the proper anchor in the list. I can only do this twice and then the anchors become unresponsive forcing me to refresh the page... Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong? This is the page I'm having issues with. I'm thinking maybe it's due to the anchors showing up in the URL. I would ideally like the anchors NOT to be in the URL so if that would fix all please let me know how to remove them.

I found a few people asking this question and getting answers about what tags are intended for that didn't really prove helpful, so I apologize for asking again if there is a good answer somewhere.
I've been running a large wp site for a year and have accumulated about 1000 different tags. The posts are about art exhibitions, and I've tagged them with the city, country and gallery where the show was held, as well as the names of any artists or curators involved. This is already somewhat helpful, because if you're looking for more exhibitions in a certain city or by a certain artist, it's easy to get all of them in one place. But I'd like to allow users to browse a list of all of the cities, artists and so on as a way of more easily accessing the archive. I already have all of this information in tags, what I need to do is be able to group tags into tag-categories, or put another way to develop a hierarchy, where the tag "city" is higher than the tag "Antwerp".
What's my best bet?
Thanks very much for your help.

Cheap Corn Deters Buyers in U.S. Sugar-for-Ethanol Plan
A glut of corn is limiting biofuel producer interest in a government program to sell surplus sugar for ethanol, potentially decreasing its effectiveness in propping up sugar prices.
Green Plains Renewable Energy Inc., the fourth-largest U.S. ethanol producer, has decided not to participate in the first round of a program designed to ease a sugar glut through biofuels, citing concerns over its cost and regulations. Valero Energy Corp., the third-biggest producer, also will skip the program, spokesman Bill Day said in a statement.
The effort to decrease this year's record surplus may help the government avoid forfeitures on raw-sugar loans that were at $81.53 million earlier this week. Many producers expecting a record corn crop don't see sugar as a competitive product, reducing interest in a program meant to lower government payments, said Todd Becker, chief executive officer of Omaha, Nebraska-based Green Plains.
"You don't just open a fermentation tank and put some sugar in there," Becker said today in a telephone interview. "We're not at $8 corn anymore. Sugar isn't a game-changer for anyone in the industry."
Corn Futures
Last year's drought drove corn futures to a record $8.49 a bushel. Farmers responded by planting what's expected to be a record crop of 13.76 million bushels this year to rebound from the drought. That's pushed the price of the grain, the main ethanol feedstock in the U.S., traded in Chicago down 43 percent to yesterday's close of $4.8075 a bushel.
Bids to the government were due yesterday for buyers and sellers of sugar under a new program in which the U.S. Department of Agriculture matches companies that want to rid themselves of surpluses with businesses interested in acquiring sweetener to process into biofuels.
The initiative is meant to prop up prices and dispose of supplies used as collateral for government loans from the Commodity Credit Corp., staving off expensive forfeitures of those loans required under government rules.
Record domestic sugar output in the current season and increasing imports, especially from Mexico, pushed U.S. prices to the lowest since 2008 earlier this year, below the loan-default level, or about 21 cents a pound.
Sugar Prices
Domestic sugar on ICE Futures U.S. in New York closed yesterday at 20.95 cents a pound, up 1.6 percent to the highest closing price since April 16. World prices closed at 16.44 cents a pound, down 0.1 percent. The U.S., which for decades has artificially raised market prices by limiting imports under international agreements, already is using export credits to reduce the surplus.
The so-called Feedstock Flexibility Program, created by Congress in a farm law passed in 2008, has never been activated until now. On Aug. 15, the Department of Agriculture solicited bids from companies interested in purchasing sugar to covert into biofuel.
Even with limited appeal, the initiative still may push prices up enough to avoid some forfeitures, meeting the government's goal, said Tom Earley, an economist with Agralytica, a food and agriculture consulting firm in Alexandria, Virginia, in a telephone interview.
Mississippi, Georgia
"What the USDA is doing with the flexibility program is going to have a positive influence on prices within the next month," he said. "The price that ethanol producers will have to pay for the sugar may make it a viable option," given that sales prices may be well below market rates, he said.
For ethanol producers, the program will mean little, said Bob Dinneen, chief executive and president of the Renewable Fuels Association, an industry trade group based in Washington.
"I don't anticipate many companies will take advantage of it," said Dinneen, who said any participation will probably come from producers in states like Mississippi or Georgia, where corn is less plentiful and sugar is nearer. The USDA is "trying to save the taxpayer money because they don't have much else they can do," he said. "This isn't about ethanol. The USDA is awash in sugar, and they're trying to get rid of it."
Environmental regulations are also a concern, as switching to sugar may trigger environmental reviews that would delay production, Becker said.
EPA Rules
Under Environmental Protection Agency rules, any ethanol facility that switches to a different feedstock for which it hasn't already been approved requires an updated engineering review. Some facilities don't need EPA approval of their new plan, just additional information, the agency said in an e-mail. The extra paperwork is another hassle that makes conversion less desirable, Becker said.
Green Plains would monitor future bidding to see whether sugar cheap enough to justify extra transportation costs becomes available. Running sugar through a corn-ethanol plant isn't particularly difficult he said, since making the biofuel involves converting grain into a sugar anyway. A bigger problem is creating new supply chains for a product that in the end would add only marginally to the industry's bottom line, he said.
"I dump 1,000 trucks every day" filled with corn, he said. "I'm not going to do anything that would mess with this."
Ethanol is blended with gasoline as part of a 2007 U.S. energy law, known as the Renewable Fuels Standard, which calls for refiners to use 13.8 billion gallons of the fuel this year and 14.4 billion in 2014. Ethanol is typically sold in a combination known as E-10, with 10 percent of the mix made up of the biofuel and the rest gasoline.
Poet LLC, the nation's biggest ethanol producer, didn't respond to requests for comment and Archer-Daniels-Midland Co., the second-biggest producer, declined to comment on its plans.

I'm using SpeedFan to alert me about unsafe CPU temperatures,

I looked up my CPU over at Intel and on page 80, there are a list of Power (W) for which the temperature is the maximum.
To select the correct temperature for my alarm to go off (considering there's a range in the table of about 29 degrees), I need to select the correct Power (W) for my laptop.
And of course I would be selecting a temperature a few degrees lower than the one I select from the chart.
How do I determine the correct Power (W) for my Laptop?

Four sets of lovers, four different stories.
On the fourth floor of a quiet apartment building, Fate, in
the guise of a handsome man, is about to deliver an unusual
item to an unsuspecting woman.
Upstairs, in 6C, a married couple is in a rut—it seems they
both need a good kick to get out of it. Or is there some
other form of punishment that would do the trick?
In her seventh floor studio, a divorced photographer has to
learn that age is strictly a calendar thing. Her teacher is
younger, harder, and more determined than she could ever
And in the penthouse, a lonely man with the world at his
fingertips and nothing but memories of passionate games
once played. Can he recapture what he lost so long ago? And
at what price?
These four tales share a twist, a sting of passion, a spicy
flavor all their own. And it's not vanilla...

To be honest, there really isn't a BAD time to visit the Columbia Gorge. There are a few months in the winter, when ice can be an issue, but even then the waterfalls are beautiful when they are half frozen over.
For wildflowers, the best time to visit is generally in late April through June. April is also peak bloom time for the orchards of the Hood River Valley and around The Dalles.
For the best weather (i.e. least chance of rain) late July through August are always a safe bet.
My favorite time of year in the Gorge is the fall, from about mid-September through the month of October. Most of the summer crowds are gone, the fall foliage puts on a stunning show (consistently one of the best in the US), and the bounty of the harvest is at its peak in the Hood River Valley. The weather is usually still pretty pleasant too.

Pianalto Repeats Backing for $600 Billion Bond Program
Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland President Sandra Pianalto reasserted her support for the Fed's $600 billion bond purchase program and said it will help to bring inflation in line with the Fed's goals.
"Our policy action offers the right kind of insurance that the Federal Reserve's monetary policy will support the economic expansion while stabilizing inflation and inflation expectations consistent with our price stability mandate," she said in a speech today at Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio.
Policy makers, led by Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, are defending the Fed's Nov. 3 decision to buy $600 billion in Treasury securities through June to help promote economic recovery and prevent inflation from falling too low. They're facing criticism from economists and Republicans in Congress, who said the plan risks fanning inflation, creating asset bubbles and weakening the dollar.
A Fed report released yesterday shows the economy gaining strength across much of the U.S. as hiring improved, manufacturing expanded and retailers anticipated a stronger holiday shopping season. Five Fed banks, including Boston and San Francisco, said the economy grew "at a slight to modest" rate, while five others, including New York and Chicago, reported a "somewhat stronger pace of economic activity."
Fed officials are testing the boundaries of unconventional monetary policy by relying on tools used during the financial crisis to aid an economy that's expanded for more than a year.
Recent Meeting
At the committee's most recent meeting, policy makers agreed to adjust the bond purchases "as needed," while leaving in place a pledge to keep interest rates low for "an extended period."
The round of purchases announced last month follows a previous $1.7 trillion bond-purchase program, a strategy which economists call quantitative easing because it aims to increase the quantity of bank reserves.
Pianalto said she expects core inflation "to remain quite subdued through 2013," and that she's confident the Fed's policy-making committee "has the resolve and tools to counteract" any buildup of inflation pressure.
Pianalto, 56, became president of the Cleveland Fed in 2003. She is a voting member of the Federal Open Market Committee this year and has never dissented from a FOMC decision. Fed presidents rotate voting on monetary policy, with Pianalto voting every other year.

This is bullshit rae. What the fuck is the point in delaying a free mix tape? Don't be Dre, Rae, don't be dre.
^ My guess is it being due to getting the features lined up, or just simple mastering issues, etc.
This song sucks! Whoa hope Rae is delaying to scrap any crap raps like this steamer! Go back to the drawing board and throw some tight darts!

Downy Mildew
Learn how to control downy mildew naturally — without resorting to toxic sprays!
A fungal disease, downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) affects many plants and appears as yellow to white patches on the upper surfaces of older leaves. On the undersides, these areas are covered with white to grayish, cotton-like fungi. These "downy" masses are most often noticed after rain or heavy dew and disappear soon after sunny weather resumes. As the disease progresses leaves may eventually turn crisp and brown and fall off even though the plant has ample water.
Downy mildew occurs mostly in cool, moist weather, usually in early spring or late fall. Spore production is favored by temperatures cooler than 65˚F. and by relative humidities approaching 100%. This disease overwinters on plant debris and in the soil. Fungal spores can be carried by insects, wind, rain or garden tools.
The best way to prevent downy mildew is to avoid the environmental conditions that favor the disease.
- Prune or stake plants and remove any weeds to improve air circulation.
- Water in the early morning hours, or use a soaker hose, to give the plants time to dry out during the day.
- Keep the ground under infected plants clean during the fall and winter to prevent the disease from spreading.
- Remove and destroy any plants with serious infection (see Fall Garden Cleanup).
- Choose resistant varieties whenever possible.
- Downy mildew is comparatively easy to control on most plants when the foliage and fruit are kept protected by organic fungicides. If you catch the infection early, apply a copper spray to diseased and surrounding plants every 7-10 days until harvest.
Tip: The systemic action of Organocide Plant Doctor moves throughout the entire plant to treat fungal diseases. Mix 3/4 tsp per gallon of water and apply to foliage. Spray to run-off, as required for disease control.

I can't really see why I would need to use this. Tips are easy to calculate- figure 20%.. if you've ever solved an arithmetic problem you ought to be able to do that in your head. If the service was good, thats your tip. If it was great, add a couple bucks. If it wasn't so great, knock a couple bucks off. Why do we need a program to do this? lol...
Wow you guys are fags. I downloaded and tested this app, even though I will barely ever use it. I don't need an app to calculate a tip but it's good for splitting a large bill between people.
There are applications like this made for numerous devices, some use it and some don't. Stop crying because YOU think it's a useless application because I'm sure some would find it handy.
Well that was a little uncalled for. no need for name calling just because you don't feel the app is necessary. if you don't have a constructive criticism, you shouldn't leave one at all. Grow up!
Why cant i open it up from my bb browser im getting a error any info on that ?
Just move the decimal.
Let's say a bill is $45.33.
Move the decimal one to the left: $4.53. That's 10%.
Wanna tip 20%? Just double that. ~$9.00.
Wanna tip 15%? Go somewhere inbetween. ~$7.00.
Really not that difficult.
I wrote FreeTips precisely because my previous, cheap Samsung phone had one built-in for free. I felt my beloved BB platform deserves a free tip calculator too.
But is it useful? I myself rarely need this when I pay the bill. It is useful, however, in a group situation. If you have a table with, say, 13 people and 7% sales tax then the per-person share is not so straightforward. What you could do is punch in a couple of numbers and pass your BlackBerry round the table. Everybody sees the numbers so they know how you got them and there's no cheating, and you have an excuse to show off your shiny BlackBerry.
it's called the calculator function. Seriously...if you can't figure out how much to tip, or divide a bill amongst a group WITH A CALCULATOR...buy a Razr.
Thank you I been looking forsome thing like this for a while now It will be well used. =)
Well, this may be a nice user friendly app, but I'm going to side with those indicating it's an unnecessary app. Seriously, people, tip calculations shouldn't be that difficult. Quick suggestion on how to simplify the process would be to tip 20% (which you should be doing anyway!)...then just round up or down and multiply by two for goodness sakes! These wonderful devices are supposed to simplify and/or enrich our lives, not replace our brains. Good grief!
Cheers, Doug.
PS, quick example -- bill comes to 78.50 -- round up to $80, multiply by 2, and leave $16 tip ($15 if you're cheap or don't have any Loonies with you).
This app needs to come with a pop up that lets people know that 20% is the new 15%. I used to be in the hospitality industry and everytime someone gave me 15% I wondered what I had done wrong. 20% is the acceptable standard now and I feel like I should let people know that. And if you can't figure out 20% of any number in your head quickly then you probably shouldn't even be using a blackberry.
This program should have been default for this device. My d807 has the same program built in.
I don't use this for my own payment, but when I have multiple people I am splitting the bill with. Even tho I could use my calculator to even figure it with other people, I'd rather have a program do it for me quickly. Thank you for the free software!
Seriously, all you bozos who feel that people who use tip calculators are worthless Neanderthals should point that "high-powered perception" at yourself. Who made you Judge of Math? So what if some of us suck at percentages... this device HELPS. Not hinders. So get off your f'n high horses. Bozos.
could you please help me out. I want the app but I can't seem to get it to download OTA. Oh yeah; I've managed quite a few restaurants and I've also been a server and can do the math quite well but sometimes you might be dining with folks that are riding the little yellow bus or they are just cheap so having a tool like this can usually shut them down and get them to leave the correct tip. That's all. No need to dog people for wanting the program. Thanks Wong; I appreciate your efforts. Just need it to download!
Keith or anyone else, if you are still having trouble downloading OTA find my profile in the forum link and send me a PM with your email address. I'll send you the files directly. I don't understand why some people are having trouble with the download. I have seen thousands of downloads so far. -- Chris
I wish people who have nothing good to say..just not speak at all. You know what...this is a free app that Chris could easily charge a few bucks for. If you don't think you're going to use it...MOVE ON! Don't comment on how ridiculous it is. If you AREN'T going to use it, go find something that you WILL use. QUIT YOUR BITCHIN'! This is an awesome app by the way...it will be useful for dinners with many people or again, those who want to short change the group! PEACE!
having difficult time downloading. maybe try again later.
I opine that that is doable to visit this site, because only here we can notice the perfect stuff about this topic. So, the thesis writing service will take this for dissertation international finishing.

Crohn's Disease Health Center
Crohn's Disease - Symptoms
The main symptoms of Crohn's disease include:
- Belly pain. The pain often is described as cramping and intermittent, and the belly may be sore when touched. Belly pain may turn to a dull, constant ache as the condition gets worse.
- Diarrhea. Some people may have diarrhea 10 to 20 times a day. They may wake up at night and need to go to the bathroom. Crohn's disease may cause blood in stools, but not always.
- Loss of appetite.
- Fever. In severe cases, fever or other symptoms that affect the entire body may develop. A high fever may mean that you have an infection, such as an abscess.
- Weight loss. Ongoing symptoms, such as diarrhea, can lead to weight loss.
- Too few red blood cells (anemia). Some people with Crohn's disease develop anemia because of low iron levels caused by bloody stools or the intestinal inflammation itself.
- Small tears in the anus (anal fissures) that may go away, but come back again.
Because Crohn's disease involves the immune system, you also may have symptoms outside the digestive tract. These may include joint pain, eye problems, a skin rash, or liver disease.
Recommended Related to Crohn's Disease
Although there are many theories about what causes Crohn's disease, none of them have been proven. There is a benefit, though, in understanding the possible causes of Crohn's disease and how they interact with one another. Doing so can help one better understand the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of Crohn's disease. Scientists believe that Crohn's disease is caused by a combination of these factors: Immune system problems Genetics Environmental factors How might each of these factors...

Jack the Ripper by Joe-RobertsWatch
©2009-2016 Joe-RobertsMature Content
Excellent line work and very good distribution of space that gives good depth to the drawing.
Really good, reminds me a postcard stamp with a macabre twist to it.
Amazing detail.
Truly beautiful and very elegant!!
I love the way you made the paper look old
I really like the black and white - a perfect media choice as it seems to call back to an era (late 19th century I'm thinking) when illustrations of a similar style were commonly seen in books and papers then. On top of that, the composition reminds me of classical art pieces (like reclining Venus etc.)... and then there's the rather ominous clues in the background to make it perfectly unique. Love it.
Beautiful piece!
Simply stunning
wow this really makes me understand the whole Jack the Ripper story.....*O*
very well done
very well done
I love this! Your work is gorgeous (:
What I love the most about this, is how it appears at first glance to be a tasteful nude and not much else. However, the normalcy of the image makes it all the more amazing when you pay closer attention to the details, and the man behind the woman.
The title, of course, seals it for me.
This is beautiful, thank you.

This is beautiful, thank you.
Wow this is great
i don't think it's too detailed
it's beautifully done
i love it, but not for the nudity, for the realism
it's beautifully done
i love it, but not for the nudity, for the realism
more like jack the rapist
if those murders took place today i wonder if we wouldve been able to catch him?
I cannot explain why I like this piece of work, it might have something to do with the subject matter.
I think book and your explanation is cool.
I think book and your explanation is cool.
If this woman was a victim, shouldn't the background be seedy and desolate? All of his victims were extremely poor prostitutes.
This is extremely well drawn. Love the antique look. Do you add the brownish effect after the drawing in itself is finished?
Thank you. Yes I do sometimes. For this one though, if i recall correctly, I think I drew it, digitally, on a layer above the paper texture
A beautiful work! Again I ask myself: How could he do this?
It would have looked less modern and more like a period piece if she had pubic hair, as well as some body hair. The lack of any screams modern to me. Aside from that it's an awesome work.
I'm literally obsessed with Jack the Ripper. I studied him for a very long time before i changed my major from Criminology to English and Art history.So i find this art fascinating.
you did an amazing job.
you did an amazing job.
The woman is beautiful. True class with signature style and a familiar, classical feel.
Get ready to say goodbye to that womb, lady.
fabulous! the detail is simply amazing!
that is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Amazing work
is that from the titcnaic it looks like it
Wow. Great art and research!
I have always been fascinated with Jack the Ripper. Never knew why though.
I love this though. You did an awesome job!
I love this though. You did an awesome job!
Absolutely great work - love the details, lines and all scene!!! It seems like you know a lot about history of 19th century - room, furniture, clothes... I'm veeery impressed!!! More stuff like this!!!
VERY GOOD and scary
this is very nice. i actually love the detailing - i don't think it is out of "character" for the period.... :/
looks awesome.
looks awesome.
if you draw it from your mind, you're a genious, and I love you
I love it! I love the ripperologist reference too!
This is amazing, and a really beautifully balanced composition.
Wow! You are a really talented artist
My compliments. I like this style.
Really great man!
very stylish. I dig that ink style of yours. you have a stroke for it.
would be cool to see more like that.
would be cool to see more like that.
Reel good! Seriously! Reel reel good!
I just picked up this book and upon seeing the face of that particular "gentleman", I instantly could see your creating him to look like Ashbee. Good work! This picture is very lovely, though the older styled one you did for the back of the book actually does seem to capture a more antique style.
Wonderfully done either way!
Wonderfully done either way!
Thank you. I'm pleased that you recognised him. Sometimes adhering to a detail like that can work against the overall image if no-one gets it, so it's great that you did

Am I the only one imagining people driving around in a van with some fake equipment, parking outside of Safeways, and taking pictures of ladies' boobs?
Is there a substantial percentage of women who won't go to a doctor for a mammogram, but don't mind stepping into a van outside a Safeway for one?
I don't know when I became my father, but if that Lover's Package girl with the cowboy hat were shopping in a bikini in a Safeway in Federal Way, I'd be driving an hour to go get groceries.
The are no beaches here, we're dying for a little skin. Jesus, you ladies wear Columbia jackets 250+ days of the year.
Super interesting. Mammo's are okay, and it is really important that women stay on top of this stuff. unfortunately mammo's can sometimes miss important signs of cancer. Considering that the SCCA's own head of radiology, Dr. Connie Lehman, published a ground breaking paper earlier this spring that designated breast MRI's as the most effective way to discover breast cancer, i am curious that SCCA is fronting this project. Right now breast MRI's as a routine exam are uninsured (meaning wealthy women with extra K's can afford to have them, but most of us can't), Dr. Lehman's paper is expected to make the MRI's the new standard of care, which will force the insurance ageny to cover them for most insured women. Anyways, my guess is is that Mammo's are better than nothing, do catch a lot of stuff, and much cheaper, so mostly, props to the SCCA. Although, ew, safeway?

The angle you were looking for is the part where it refers to "Michelle Malkin" as a "journalist" instead of a "clown".
I'll tell you what's on MSNBC...a substantial endowment!!!
The only reason to highlight the race or gender of someone in an article like that is because in print most white males would simply assume it was a white male unless the name were distinctive.
It has become customary when citing law review articles to write the entire name of the author instead of just the first name simply because people were assuming that all the authors were male.
Great idea! From now on, all Slog posters have to identify their ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender on every post. Otherwise, how else would we know whether to take them seriously or not.
@4: and they have to confess they have...a substantial endowment!!!
@1 - I think you meant "combat-avoiding unpatriotic Traitor who wants America to be in debt for one hundred years due to her own personal Greed and hatred of our shared American values of Truth, Justice, and the American Middle Class way of life".
Otherwise, spot on.
call off the PC police.
This season MSNBC is clearly making a special effort to not have only male white guys and is bringing on chicks and blacks, too. Even black chicks.
What we're too cool to give them a tiny ounce of credit, they are lame whatever they do, now they're trying tooooo hard.....ohmygod someone is writing about it.....ohmygood they labelled people!!!! call the PC police!! How can we be superior if a dumb channel like MSNBC is taking some small steps towards doing something...kinda good??
got it. it would be far, far better if they reverted to having 90% only white males.
I prefer my salad pundit free because otherwise it gives me gas.
PC has nothing to do with this. Somebody sounds a tad paranoid. Is it really progress, if you constantly have to point out out someone's skin color or ethnicity? Don' think so.
9, yes. it's a necessary step along the way. it will look silly and dated in twenty years, just like "a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle." but it actually is progress. always lots of quibbling on slog of this nature i've noticed.
This is a pretty typical journalistic convention, that if it is an article about race in society or some aspect of such, they highlight the race of the speakers. I see it all the time. It isn't just done for no reason, just if relevant to the content of the story. Since it is an article about diversity in punditry, it is clearly relevant.
As a journalist, how does that not make sense to you?

For the chip I made a socket on the xbox mainboard, and pins on the chip. So i can remove the whole chip and can easely stick in another Aladin Advanced chip (with pins soldered on the chip ofcourse).
The chip is always on or off with a jumper that grounds the D0 of mainboard to ground of xbox.
When I boot the xb0x with the chip to start flash program. I remove the chip and put another one in (all with xb0x on) and try to flash. But as a respons xb0x tells me " flash not writable "
I know you have to enable the flash of the chip by holding power when booting the chip so you get fancy led flashing. But I have NOT soldered BT, L1, L2 and D0 from chip.
My question. Can I activate the flashing of the chip by soldering some wiring on it instead of the wiring on the BT. L1. L2 on mainboard.
Xb0x works great --> this question is to help a bad flashed Aladdin Advance <--

Your right and It is not just one party
Don't say that or you'll offend the Kool Aid drinkers.
Tigger: if a CEO gets a huge bonus, while the company LOSES money, and stock value, and sales, doe he "earn it"? That has been typical for a lot of CEOs in the last 15 years.
I believe that is part of Reagan's trickle down theory.
If the CEO stops urinating how much does the worker make?
If the CEO invests in a serve cleaning urinal how much does the worker make on unemployment and disability?
If the worker invents a better urinal cake how much does his worker in his washroom make?
It's good to be the King…Mel Brooks
If he dropped a hundred dollar bill and stopped to pick it up, he would be losing money.
Methink Radish refers to opportunity cost. The time he takes to pick up the 100 bucks, is time wasted he could be using to make much more.

QT Event Management general manager Malcolm Blakey said as
the green, which would feature live music, food and drink,
was being used, the event was not exclusive to people sitting
at the long table to be set up in Buckingham St.
"It's a great addition - being able to cater for people who
aren't just sitting at the table."
After last year's lunch, diners all tried to leave at once
and had nowhere to continue socialising. The space on the
green would resolve this.
There will be live music on the green until 4.30pm.
The 12 participating restaurants are all based in Arrowtown
and range from Indian to Thai to French.
This time the lunch was easier to organise because
restaurants and diners knew what to expect and resource
consents were in place, Mr Blakey said.
Being the second day of the festive month, some "office
parties" had booked for the lunch and other groups included
"just groups of friends coming out together".
Buckingham St, from Wiltshire St to Berkshire St, would be
closed from 11am until 4pm and set-up would begin from 11am
in anticipation of the guests' arrival at 1pm, Mr Blakey
Mr Blakey was inspired to organise the lunch after seeing a
similar event in Australia.
"Arrowtown is just the perfect place to do this because we
have a range of restaurants ... and beautiful scenery."

Founded in 1875, the Buffalo Zoo, located at 300 Parkside Ave in Buffalo, New York, is the third oldest zoo in the United States. Each year, the Buffalo Zoo welcomes approximately 400,000 visitors and is the second largest tourist attraction in Western New York; second only to Niagara Falls.[citation needed] Located on 23.5 acres (9.5 ha) of Buffalo's Delaware Park, the zoo exhibits a diverse collection of wild and exotic animals, and more than 320 different species of plants. The zoo is open year-round.
The zoo traces its history to the mid-19th century when Jacob E. Bergtold, a Buffalo furrier, presented a pair of deer to the city of Buffalo. To provide the deer with room to graze, Elam R. Jewett, the publisher of the Buffalo Daily Journal, offered to house the deer on his estate. Simultaneously, plans were being made for the municipal North Park (today's Delaware Park), and Mayor William F. Rogers hired landscape architect, Frederick Law Olmsted, to include a zoo as part of the park's design. Five years after, the deer were donated, more animals were added to the collection, and the first permanent building was erected, signifying the establishment of the Buffalo Zoological Gardens in 1875.[citation needed]
The zoo underwent a large expansion during the Great Depression and became a major work site for the Works Progress Administration. Among the new structures was the Buffalo Zoo Entrance Court at Parkside Avenue and Amherst Street. It was designed by African-American architect John Edmonston Brent and built 1935-1938.[3] The Buffalo Zoo Entrance Court was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.[2]
Throughout the next several decades, more exhibits and facilities were added, including the Reptile House (1942), Children's Zoo (1965), Giraffe House and Veterinary Hospital (1967), and The Gorilla Habitat Building (1981). The zoo's mission also began to change during the 1980s and 1990s under the direction of Minot Ortolani, as it began reducing the numbers of animals in its collection to focus on the breeding of endangered species that might not otherwise have a chance at survival. In addition to its conservation efforts, the zoo also placed more of an emphasis on education to teach visitors about the animals and their natural habitats.[citation needed]
In 2002, a 15-year Master Plan was unveiled to transform the zoo. New visitor amenities and naturalistic habitats were planned, including the Asian River and Highlands Zone, African Watering Hole, Arctic Edge, and the Wonders of Water Children's Zoo. Phase One of the Master Plan has resulted in the opening of the Vanishing Animals exhibit, EcoStation, Otter Creek, and Sea Lion Cove. The completion of Phase One was marked by the September 10, 2008, opening of the South American Rainforest, a four-season attraction that features a two-story waterfall, dozens of colorful free-flighted birds, and a variety of other rainforest species. These include ocelots, blue poison dart frogs, and many other animals you can find in the rain forest.[4]

Auralization in Scale Models: Processing of Impulse Response
Acoustical measurements using scale models offer a time- and cost-efficient method for determining the acoustical properties of enclosures. In order to listen into the models, measured impulse responses have to be compensated for excessive air attenuation in the model, equalized for transducer response, and their dynamic range has to be extended. The corresponding processing, restricted to monaural signals, is described.
