Phoenix Suns
Season's Greetings from the Valley sports teams
It hasn't been the easiest of years as far as many of the Valley's pro teams are concerned. But for a few days, the players, coaches and members of the front office from each of the four respective teams (Arizona Diamondbacks, Arizona Cardinals, Phoenix Coyotes and Phoenix Suns) have a chance to sit back, relax and share some of their holiday wishes with fans.
Here's a sampling:
A very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of my @dbacks friends and family. Be safe, HEALTHY and happy.
— Derrick Hall (@DHallDbacks) December 25, 2012

1. Typically the idea of dieting comes to you when you're plagued with insomnia at 3 in the morning.
2. While you're contemplating what fingers are, what time is and why we exist…suddenly a wave of inspiration hits you and it's like "I am going to wake up early tomorrow morning and go for a jog after I eat *insert healthy breakfast option*."
On that note, you fall asleep dreaming about the food you get to eat the next morning. A GREAT start to your diet.
3. First things first, you sleep through your alarm and end up waking up at 10:00 instead.
Ugh, you're so tired because you stayed up so late. It's really not healthy to go on a jog when you didn't sleep a certain amount of hours. Pretty sure I read that somewhere.
4. So you go to your fridge to make your healthy breakfast and because you chose to be healthy last night, your fridge is late to get the memo.
With nothing to eat but condiments, you figure that since it's not 10:30 yet, you can make it to the nearest McDonald's/Chick Fil A in time to order breakfast! WOO. Still a win.
5. So as you sit in your car eating your breakfast because you couldn't possibly wait until you got home to eat the deliciousness, you start thinking about lunch and what you're going to have.
Another great start to your diet.
6. When you get home and have finally showered and gotten completely ready for the day, you realize you're hungry again but you don't have any food. Time to go to the grocery store!
7. Once you get to the store, you literally buy everything that looks good…because you're hungry.
Man! Even I could've told you you're not supposed to grocery shop on an empty stomach.
8. The good news is that you basically grabbed one of everything in the produce section, including some mint and basil leaves as well as other spices that you don't know how to cook. They looked healthy!
9. As you unload your groceries in between bites of the microwavable meal you bought for lunch (let's face it, you were famished), you realized that you don't really have enough of anything to make a full meal.
10. So you look up recipes online to see what you can make with a butternut squash, tofurkey (which you've never had before) and a few other "healthy" looking things while simultaneously watching the Food Network and eating a snack.
11. Later on while you're eating dinner, a sandwich with tofurkey on wheat bread and a celery stick on the side, you browse tumblr on your computer because if you're going to be miserable eating dinner you might as well have something pleasant to do.
12. Unfortunately, you follow a lot of food blogs on tumblr and all you want is a cookie.
Ya know what? I mean, you might as well have a cookie or five anyway since you didn't really have a healthy breakfast or lunch. You weren't ready today, I'll start tomorrow.
13. Tomorrow I will be better. Tomorrow I will start my diet. Tomorrow.

In front of him a small knot of victims and their relatives hugged and stroked each other, and wept openly. One young man on crutches, his leg still held together by a metal frame, was so overcome that he had to be escorted back inside. Such was the charged emotion on Old Compton Street, in the heart of the capital's gay district, last night.
Boy George had by then already supplied the celebrity presence at the event, wearing a polka dot top hat and escorted through the cheering crowd by a huge policeman.
"Tonight is about so many things. It is about sadness and remembrance, but it is also about moving on," he said. "The opening of the Admiral Duncan in just nine weeks sends out a powerful message to the small but very dangerous minority that wishes to terrorise and destroy London's gay and ethnic communities."
The ceremony was taken by Neil Whitehouse from the charity Kairos, directly next door to the pub, which aims to provide "social and spiritual resources for lesbians, gay men and friends". Introducing himself as an "out, gay Methodist minister", he called for the bombing to be a catalyst for greater understanding between different communities.
As the time moved towards 6.37pm, the exact moment of the explosion, the crowd was stilled into a minute's silence for the victims, followed by the tolling bell of the local parish church.
Then the staff of the pub, who had been on duty that night, cut ribbons on a large rainbow rosette hanging in the doorway to declare the pub open again. They were led by Mark Taylor, its manager, who suffered severe burns when the bomb went offas he shepherded customers out of the bar. He urged that the evening should be a celebration. "We have to look to the future," he said. He was described by his boss as "one of the most courageous men I have ever met".
The opening came on the eve of London's annual gay and lesbian street march and festival. This year it has been modelled on the flamboyant Mardi Gras events in Sydney and San Francisco. Last year the Gay Pride celebration had to be cancelled after the organisersfailed to sell enough tickets. This year they hired one of the organisers of Sydney's event, andalmost 40,000 of the 65,000 tickets have been sold for the after-march party in Finsbury Park, north London, where Steps, Billy, E17 and Boy George among others will perform.Reuse content

Majora's Mask looks great on the 3DS, but if you've already had the pleasure, there's not much new content worth a second go.
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS is a blast to play, with an endless amount of value and variety packed inside, although at times the chaos can overwhelm that small screen.
Mario Golf has a strong legacy on portable platforms. So is it up to par on the 3DS?
Kirby: Triple Deluxe is the a great experience for your 3DS, even if its exactly what you might expect.
A Link Between Worlds is now the best reason to own a 3DS and likely the best bang for your buck you'll get this holiday season. If you own a 3DS, there's really no excuse not to play. If you don't own one, there's never been a better time.
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon is a highly entertaining sequel over a decade in the making and is one of the 3DS' newest must-plays.
Paper Mario: Sticker Star's many charms make it a sweet and worthwhile adventure, though a few flaws interfere with its feel-good attitude.
Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance is an enjoyable but flawed adventure through a magical Disney universe.

Once again my local garden center had another affair...(yep, same one
that did the night party)
They featured four seminars throughout the day, I attended three of
them. I am guessing the word got out about their last affair, since
prior to this about 10-15 folks attended seminars, yesterday there was
50 or so....
In the hopes of keeping things intimate, they changed the plan mid
stream. The divided the attendees in half and ran the first two seminars
at the same time. Hope that makes sense to you guys ( half walked
outside to do the soil preparation, while the other half stayed in the
greenhouse for the creating fall interest in the garden presentation--
then they reversed it so all got to see both) Liked the handouts for
each seminar, as well as Proven Winners brochure....
I liked the concept of a small rather than a large group, so individual
questions could be addressed. Also liked the breakfast and lunch type
munchies that were served also :)..and once again the music was playing
in-between seminars... Also interesting that Wayne made a speech before
starting, declaring that his nursery is not that wealthy to provide all
of this...(only been there for 4 years)... and that most of the folks
working/speakers today were volunteers, not paid folks. I hope that this
garden center survives the time, and probably will with all the folks
backing him, as well as a good cliental.
Shocker- I only bought 3 plants and a couple scarecrows!(and everything
was once again on sale).. so who has experience with:
Callicarpa dichotoma 'early Amethyst'- purple beautyberry
Physocarpus opulifolius 'seward' - summer wine ninebark.- This is
supposed to be a dwarf variety of ninebark... only 5ft tall with a 3-4
ft spread...I sure hope they are right!
Also purchased another clematis, double version... duh- multi-blue name
I think...
Hoping to get these all in the ground today! (yeah, right, maybe
Who is thinking of also helping out there since I have to do so many
speeches for the National Wildlife Federation anyways....might schedule
one there in the spring.... anyone else ever volunteer to help out with
a garden center 'commercial business' affair and what was the outcome? I
have always volunteered at nature centers/parks/non-profit groups
stuff... never commercial business....thoughts?

Louis van Gaal says that he hopes his Manchester United players follow the example of the Netherlands side he guided to third place at the World Cup.
"I hope my new group in Manchester will be just like this one," said Van Gaal. "We set an objective and we believed in that objective. We wanted first place.
"And really we were very, very close to doing that - only penalties stopped us.
"Not to be able to achieve that objective was so disappointing but we won third place, we got a medal which is fantastic.
"Now the first thing we have to do at United is the same, to all start singing from the same hymn sheet. Then we'll see if we do that then all's well that ends well."
United fly out for their pre-season tour of America on 18 July, when Van Gaal will officially start work as the club's manager. He will be unveiled at Old Trafford this Thursday.
Manchester United: Potential summer transfer targets
Manchester United: Potential summer transfer targets
1/19 Arturo Vidal
The Juventus midfielder is among United's top targets this summer, particularly after impressing for Chile at the World Cup. Having helped his current team secure the Serie A title, Juventus aren't keen on letting him go.
Getty Images
2/19 Marco Reus
Rumoured to be near the top of United's target list, a possible swap deal involving cash and Shinji Kagawa has been mentioned. The Borussia Dortmund player would not be a cheap acquisition, especially given his recent declaration that he wants to stay at Dortmund next season
Getty Images
3/19 Arda Turan
Former manager David Moyes had been seen watching Turan, though his dismissal put a doubt over whether United were still interested. The winger's agent claims an offer has been made, so is the Atletico Madrid winger on his way to Old Trafford?
Getty Images
4/19 Arjen Robben
The Bayern Munich winger has said Van Gaal has offered him a place at Old Trafford if he wants it. Currently he's happy to stay where he is, but things can quickly change.
5/19 Claudio Marchisio
With Paul Pogba highly unlikely to be prised away from Juventus, United's attention could turn to team-mate Claudio Marchisio. The Italian international would provide some class and experience.
6/19 Mats Hummels
With defensive reinforcements high on United's list of priorities, Borussia Dortmund's Mats Hummels has unsurprisingly been linked with a move to Old Trafford. The German has been earmarked as the ideal replacement for the now-departed Rio Ferdinand and after his impressive showing at the World Cup, he's even more desirable.
7/19 Raphael Varane
Raphael Varane has already snubbed United once in his career, opting instead to join Real Madrid. It would surely take a big offer to prise the classy defender away now.
8/19 Seamus Coleman
Reportedly already the subject of a £15m bid, Seamus Coleman could be the man being lined up as the answer to United's problems at right-back.
9/19 William Carvalho
The Sporting Lisbon midfielder has reportedly been watched 15 times by Manchester United, although the £29m asking price could prove a stumbling block. The Portugal international has also been linked with Arsenal.
Getty Images
10/19 Xherdan Shaqiri
Bayern Munich winger Xherdan Shaqiri has struggled to force his way into the first team at the Allianz Arena and could be a target for United as well as rivals Liverpool. His impressive displays for Switzerland this summer could make it harder to prise him away.
11/19 Alex Song
Barcelona are understood to be ready to let the former Arsenal player leave this summer. Could provide some strength to United's midfield. Could also bring embarrassment judging by his behaviour at the World Cup.
12/19 Fabio Coentrao
Supposedly came within hours of signing in January, the Portuguese left back could be brought in to provide back-up to Luke Shaw.
13/19 Julian Draxler
A long time Arsenal target, United are reportedly interested in pinching the young German with a bumper offer. Seems unlikely though. Arsenal also strongly interested.
14/19 Sami Khedira
The Germany international is reportedly being pursued by a host of sides, and United might be wise to get in the mix as they look to add some quality to a fairly feeble looking midfield. Real Madrid appear open to letting him go with the 27-year-old having just one year left on his contract. Arsenal and Chelsea are among the others keen on signing the World Cup winner.
15/19 Edinson Cavani
The Uruguayan hitman would prove pricey and tricky to snatch away from PSG and it seems unlikely United have enough to offer him.
16/19 Luciano Vietto
The Racing Club youngster has been impressing in Argentina for some time although a move directly to United would be something of a surprise.
17/19 Santiago Arias
Should a move for Seamus Coleman fail, PSV defender Arias is reportedly being lined up by United. Played for Colombia throughout the group stage of the World Cup.
18/19 Miralem Pjanic
Rumoured to part of a joint bid including teammate Benatia, the Bosnian midfielder is reportedly another on United's large hit list.
19/19 Kevin Strootman
Van Gaal knows Strootman well from working with him in the Netherlands set-up and has indicated he is interested. Roma are reluctant to sell whilst his recovery from a knee injury may prove a stumbling block.
One player who will not be on the tour with United is the Dutch striker Robin van Persie, who has been given three weeks off by Van Gaal.
United defender Chris Smalling has described pre-season as a "crucial" period for the team and the manager.
"Pre-season is always massively important and the tour gives the manager an opportunity to get all the players together and drill home his ideas that will last for the rest of the season. It's a crucial period."

A Single-Minded Savings Plan
By Paula Santonocito
Single women are generally at a disadvantage when it comes to savings, mainly because there's often no one with whom to share living and other expenses.
In fact, for single women it can be difficult to make ends meet, never mind save money.
But there are ways to cut back on expenses so you have more to sock away.
Here are a few ideas:
Take more trips to the supermarket and buy less each time. Why? If you're like a lot of single women, especially single women who live alone, you tend to overbuy fresh produce, baked goods, and other items that spoil. As a result, you end up throwing away a lot of food. By buying only what you'll eat, you won't waste food and money.
Avoid being taken in by sales. If you're a single woman on a budget, you're probably also a bargain hunter. After all, what single gal doesn't love a sale, especially a clothing sale? Trouble is, when you find a great deal you sometimes talk yourself into buying an item you wouldn't otherwise purchase. Think not? Look in your closet. How many sale items do you have that you've only worn once? How many items still have tags on them? Remind yourself: It's only a deal if you will really use the item.
Know your shopping weaknesses and do your best to avoid temptation. Every single woman has a shopping weakness. A lot of women cite shoes as their obsession. But would-be savers can be defeated by more than their feet. One woman tells of an addiction to handbags even though she never uses them. Another single woman is lured by dresses, even though her closet boasts plenty of them and her lifestyle rarely calls for wearing a dress. How do you avoid temptation? Ask yourself if you will really use the item, and ask yourself if the money could be put to better use…like say toward a vacation.
Stock up on essentials when items you use regularly are on sale. Items you always use, like deodorant, vitamins, toothpaste, and other essentials, as well as lingerie, towels, and sheets, frequently go on sale. And when they do, the savings can be significant. That's the time to buy, in quantity.
Other savings tricks have to do with setting aside money. To this end, why not consider an automatic savings plan?
By committing to a checking account deduction of even $200 per month, you can accumulate a respectable chunk of change in no time, especially if you invest through a company like TD Ameritrade, which allows for stock trading. One single woman who signed up to supplement her savings two years ago now has $6,500, and it's money she wouldn't have otherwise saved.
Isn't it time to start your single-minded savings plan?

Time travel with the dream theatre: The new APASSIONATA show "Cinema of Dreams"
The great age of film has dawned: in a small town, a cinema has opened, and with it the magic of escaping into fantastical worlds. The magic of its films also puts Eve and Tom under its spell – from thereon in, their life together is shaped by the dream theatre. The new APASSIONATA show reaches through the 20th century as it accompanies two friends who never give up their yearning and hopes, even though time turns against them and their dreams...
Following the opulent inauguration of the cinema, the young friends Tom and Eve see their first big movies here: one film lets them experience the home of rapacious pirates who make the seas froth with their wild horses. The freebooters perform brilliant tricks on, next to and under their mounts, led by their captain and his impressive stallion. As soon as night falls over the islands of the South Seas, fiery voodoo magicians haunt a beach-side fortress... the impressive climax of the sinister ceremony features a mysterious lady on horseback and magnificent dressage moves. The next film takes place in the ice-covered land of a snow queen, who celebrates the winter with her court of acrobats, snowmen and Friesian stallions.
Yet the world outside the cinema also continues to turn – far too fast, it seems – for now television manages to captivate ever more people. The era of the TV show master has dawned. With a delightful liberty dressage act involving miniature ponies, he knows how to thrill audiences in a unique way. Yet Eve and Tom remain loyal to their beloved cinema right until the last performance. It is with a heavy heart that they leave behind the movie theatre, which is shutting down. After many years have passed, the two friends, now lovers, return to their home town. As they stand in front of the overgrown ruins of their once-beloved cinema, they both decide to not give up on their great dream!
With the upcoming show, APASSIONATA's visitors can once again look forward to a firework of emotions and creativity: an ensemble of superlative horse-riding, presented in wonderful compositions of impressive lighting effects, lovingly designed costumes and captivating rhythms, melodies and dance choreographies! During a breath-taking journey through time which takes in the modern era, audiences will witness a newhich takes in the modern era, audiences will witness a new, enchanting programme which will tour 32 Europe's cities from October 2016 to June 2017.

Very nice. I may have to try it if I ever have an excess of avocados.
Actually, maybe I'll buy an extra bag of them at Costco and try it
anyway, just in case I need guacamole in a hurry one day.

added chopped jalapenos and lemon juice to it and froze it in 1-cup
containers. Cyndi, among others, said she wanted to know how it turned
out. I thawed the first cup this evening. Terrific. Tastes [and looks]
as good a fresh. We are dipping into it with pita.
We still have 4 cups frozen. If I remember, I'll defrost them, one by
one, between now and when the next crop becomes available [the tree is
budding up; in this strange weather, it will be blooming by mid February
and fruiting by late May].

But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much. Once the Reckoners' leader, Prof has now embraced his Epic destiny.
"Climactic Battles Second Chances? as Calamity Ends"
Celaena has survived deadly contests and shattering heartbreak - but at an unspeakable cost. Now, she must travel to a new land to confront her darkest truth - a truth about her heritage that could change her life - and her future - forever. Meanwhile, brutal and monstrous forces are gathering on the horizon, intent on enslaving her world. Will Celaena find the strength to not only fight her inner demons, but to take on the evil that is about to be unleashed?
"Amazing Story, Just What the Series Needed"
Newcago is free. They told David it was impossible, that even the Reckoners had never killed a High Epic. Yet Steelheart - invincible, immortal, unconquerable - is dead. And he died by David's hand.Eliminating Steelheart was supposed to make life simpler. Instead, it only made David realize he has questions. Big ones. And no one in Newcago can give him answers.Babylon Restored, the city formerly known as the borough of Manhattan, has possibilities, though.
"Like a cherry on top of a Sundae in the North Pole"
After serving out a year of hard labor in the salt mines of Endovier for her crimes, 18-year-old assassin Celaena Sardothien is dragged before the Crown Prince. Prince Dorian offers her her freedom on one condition: she must act as his champion in a competition to find a new royal assassin.Her opponents are men-thieves and assassins and warriors from across the empire, each sponsored by a member of the king's council. If she beats her opponents in a series of eliminations, she'll serve the kingdom for three years and then be granted her freedom.
"Love the story, HATE HATE HATE the narration!"
Everyone Celaena Sardothien loves has been taken from her. But she's at last returned to the empire - for vengeance, to rescue her once-glorious kingdom, and to confront the shadows of her past.... She has embraced her identity as Aelin Galathynius, Queen of Terrasen. But before she can reclaim her throne, she must fight. She will fight for her cousin, a warrior prepared to die just to see her again. She will fight for her friend, a young man trapped in an unspeakable prison.
"Everything You Were Waiting For, And More To Come!"
After a year of hard labor in the Salt Mines of Endovier, eighteen-year-old assassin Celaena Sardothien has won the king's contest to become the new royal assassin. But Calaena is far from loyal to the crown. Keeping up the charade - while pretending to do the king's bidding - will test her skills in an entirely new way. And it certainly isn't the only point of confusion for the young girl. Because though she's made her choice between Dorian and Chaol, the ways of the heart are never simple...
"An addictive sequel"
These Royals will ruin you...Ella Harper is a survivor - a pragmatic optimist. She's spent her whole life moving from town to town with her flighty mother, struggling to make ends meet and believing that someday she'll climb out of the gutter. After her mother's death, Ella is truly alone. Until Callum Royal appears, plucking Ella out of poverty and tossing her into his posh mansion among his five sons who all hate her. Each Royal boy is more magnetic than the last, but none as captivating as Reed Royal, the boy who is determined to send her back to the slums.
"Overall I'd give it 3.5 Stars"
The long path to the throne has only just begun for Aelin Galathynius. Loyalties have been broken and bought, friends have been lost and gained, and those who possess magic find themselves at odds with those don't. As the kingdoms of Erilea fracture around her, enemies must become allies if Aelin is to keep those she loves from falling to the dark forces poised to claim her world. With war looming on all horizons, the only chance for salvation lies in a desperate quest that may mark the end of everything Aelin holds dear.
"Emotional, Stressful and Wonderful"
Ketterdam: a bustling hub of international trade where anything can be had for the right price - and no one knows that better than criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker. Kaz is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he can't pull it off alone.
"I'm obsessed"
She's tough, resilient, and willing to do whatever it takes to defend the people she loves, but the challenge of a long-lost father and a boyfriend whose life is on the line might be too much for even Ella to overcome. Reed Royal has a quick temper and even faster fists. But his tendency to meet every obstacle with violence has finally caught up with him. If he wants to save himself and the girl he loves, he'll need to rise above his tortured past and tarnished reputation.
From wharf fights and school brawls to crumbling lives inside glittery mansions, one guy tries to save himself. Reed Royal has it all - looks, status, money. The girls at his elite prep school line up to date him, the guys want to be him, but Reed never gave a damn about anyone but his family until Ella Harper walked into his life.
"It's like a train wreck"
Following Stronghold's destruction, Rukh and Jessira lead the ragged remnants of the OutCastes on the long march to Ashoka. There they seek sanctuary for her people, but in order to do so they must overcome unyielding law that demands exile for all ghrinas. Meanwhile, Hal'El Wrestiva - exposed and reviled as the Withering Knife murderer - escapes from Ashoka and hatches one final scheme to resuscitate his soiled reputation.
"Great book, wonderful narration"
Seventeen-year-old Raine Cooper has enough on her plate dealing with her father's disappearance, her mother's erratic behavior, and the possibility of her boyfriend relocating. The last thing she needs is Torin St. James - a mysterious new neighbor with a wicked smile and uncanny way of reading her. Raine is drawn to Torin's dark sexiness against her better judgment, until he saves her life with weird marks, and she realizes he is different. But by healing her, Torin changes something inside Raine.
"Good Read - Teen Fantasy"
Celaena Sardothien is her kingdom's most feared assassin. Though she works for the powerful and ruthless Assassin's Guild, Celaena yields to no one and trusts only her fellow killer for hire, Sam. When Celaena's scheming master, Arobynn Hamel, dispatches her on missions that take her from remote islands to hostile deserts, she finds herself acting independently of his wishes - and questioning her own allegiance. Along the way, she makes friends and enemies alike, and discovers that she feels far more for Sam than just friendship.
"Interesting Story, I'm game."
For Kitty Doe, it seems like an easy choice. She can either spend her life as a III in misery, looked down upon by the higher ranks and forced to leave the people she loves, or she can become a VII and join the most powerful family in the country. If she says yes, Kitty will be Masked - surgically transformed into Lila Hart, the Prime Minister's niece, who died under mysterious circumstances. As a member of the Hart family, she will be famous. She will be adored. And for the first time, she will matter.
"Surprisingly addictive"
Erin Blake has one of those names. A name that, like Natalee Holloway or Elizabeth Smart, is inextricably linked to a grisly crime. As a toddler, Erin survived for three days alongside the corpse of her murdered mother, and the case - which remains unsolved - fascinated a nation. Her father's identity unknown, Erin was taken in by her mother's best friend and has become a relatively normal teen in spite of the looming questions about her past.
"Awesome Characters with Fantastic Forensic Details"
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Words of Radiance, coauthor of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series and creator of the internationally bestselling Mistborn Trilogy, Brandon Sanderson comes Mitosis, a short story set in the action-packed world of Steelheart: the Reckoners series, exclusively available in the digital format. Epics still plague Newcago, but David and the Reckoners have vowed to fight back.
"Great short story."
My name is Jemma Blackburn, and I have a secret. I know vampires are real. I watched one murder my father eight months ago, and even though they tried to convince me it didn't happen - that I'd lost touch with reality due to the trauma, I know what I saw was real. Hollow Hills is now the place I call home. It was supposed to be my chance at a normal life. My chance to bury my secret and start over.
"For a YA Book, I'm Impressed!"
My name is Jemma Blackburn, and I'm a Slayer. Finding out I wasn't human was only the beginning of my problems. My best friend, Taylor, is still missing, and so is the Immortal Amulet, and it's my job alone to get them both back. I don't know who I can trust, and I'm still not sure I'm cut out for any of this, but I'm determined to figure it all out, or die trying. As if that wasn't bad enough, there's a new enemy in town and they've come bearing gifts - an ancient prophecy that is going to blur the very lines between good and evil. And, apparently, my blood is tied to the center of it.
"What happened to the ending so upset!!!!"

Car Companies Drive To Super Bowl, But Might Not Reach Their Destination
by Barry Janoff on Jan 25, 8:34 AM
Given a built-in audience of 90-100 million, most companies might feel secure in the knowledge that their message on Super Bowl Sunday would have an impact. They would be right, but that impact is not always the one they might want.

Where's My Digital Sports Bar?
by Brian Grey on Jan 18, 7:56 AM
As I drove through downtown Seattle, I noticed the Seahawks banners and the "12th" man placards -- as well as the 12th man flag flying atop the Space Needle. Of course, every bar was decked out in Seahawk cheer. It reminded me what a powerful community driver sports can be -- at least offline.

Even 'Seinfeld' Didn't Take It This Far!
by Jon Last on Jan 11, 9:17 AM
I've always been a fan of the sitcom "Seinfeld." And while many of us can recount numerous poignant observations about "nothing" that emanated from the series, one of my favorites was Jerry's comment that at sporting events one is really just "rooting for a shirt."

This Lawsuit's For You: Why Litigation Is A Black Eye For Major Sports Properties
by Darren Marshall on Jan 4, 7:19 AM
As someone who has been involved with selling and buying sponsorships for about 20 years now, a couple of recent lawsuits involving sponsors and sports Leagues have struck me as, well, just plain nuts. In the first, Anheuser-Busch, the "Official Beer" sponsor for some 30 years, is suing Major League Baseball.

Tank Cover/Canopy/Lid
Where can I find a a cover for a 125gal aquarium. I just purchased it from a friend, and it did not have a cover to go along with it. Where can I go to buy one, or if so, how can I make it?
Anyone got any ideas for me?
Posted via Mobile Device
I just typed "125 gallon aquarium canopy" on the search line and saw tons of sources. Also, you could type in "DIY aquarium covers" for advice/instructions on making one yourself.
If it has 2 braces in the middle on the top, 3 24"x18" glass covers will fit.
I just typed in "top braces for a 125 gallon aquarium" on my search line and there seems to be a lot of info out there. Some says don't worry about it, some provides DIY advice. It never ceases to amaze me what you can find online.
one of these days im going to make one for my 110g high, its 48x18 with no braces. I had plans to use 1/2" angle steel (painted and clear coated) to reinforce a lexan or plexi hinged lid. There are lots of plans out there to do it, and im mechanically inclined to a point, just a matter of getting of my lazy bum. IME, full canopys help, but dont really do much for evaporation. Not to mention if one of my severums decides to splash, the ballast is exposed. ooooh someday.
Nowadays any tank you buy unless its an oddball is compatible with just about any accessory of a different brand. 20 years ago when alot of the bigger tanks were made, such standards werent really standard. A new 125g will assuredly have two braces, and a 55 will have one, and any lids sized for the openings will fit fine. Those of us with older tanks need to band together to get creative ;-)

This collection of classic children's poetry, adapted to music by Natalie Merchant, opens the door to a wondrous world filled with witches and fearless girls, blind men and elephants, giants and sailors and dancing bears. Leave Your Sleep features a daring and delightful selection, ranging from the beloved (e.e. cummings, Edward Lear, and Jack Prelutsky) to the undiscovered (the young Nathalia Crane). Natalie Merchant's brilliant musical renderings, selected from her highly praised album, share the stage with Barbara McClintock's richly imagined art to create a memorable reading, looking, and listening experience.

"A musical treat for parents as well as their children." Kirkus
"A classy bit of bookmaking." The Horn Book

Two years ago, at a librarian conference, I had the unexpected pleasure of hearing Natalie Merchant sing. I didn't really know much about her, since I wasn't much of a 10,000 Maniacs fan, but I was blown away by her performance of poetry put to music and since then I've taken advantange of any opportunity to hear her. (But I digress from my point.) Natalie Merchant loves words and she used to recite poetry to her young daughter. In 2010, she recorded a CD, Leave Your Sleep, in which she put to music 26 poems of poets known and obscure. It was the culmination of years of research, finding the poems, digging out biographical information on the poets, some of whom wrote poetry as a sideline or hobby. The result is a marvelous listening adventure; one I constantly go back to. But, Ms. Merchant didn't leave it at that because she understands that sometimes artistry is enhanced by the combination of mediums. Today I received my copy of Leave Your Sleep, the picture book, illustrated by the award winning Barbara McClintock. It is a beautiful book in which 19 of the poems on her CD are written out with colorful illustrations. It is a delight for the eyes. Along with the book is a CD of Ms. Merchant singing these songs. In her introduction, Ms. Merchant writes "Poetry speaks of so much: longing and sadness, joy and beauty, hope and disillusionment…But poetry on the page can be difficult to penetrate; sometimes it needs to be heard." Or accompanied by illustrations. Leave Your Sleep, both the book and the CD, are the perfect blend of media to bring out the best of these poems. On December 1, I'm going to hear Ms. Merchant sing some of these songs accompanied by an orchestra. What a perfect way to hear poetry!!! Leave Your Sleep is the perfect gift for a child of any age. That's why I treated myself.

Demand for mono c-Si wafers on the rise, says EnergyTrend
Monocrystalline product demand in China to expand from 15% in 2015 to 25% in 2016. Image: Comtec
According to Taiwan-based market research firm EnergyTrend, a division of TrendForce demand for monocrystalline wafers in China is increasing due to capacity constraints with mainstream multicrystalline wafers.
EnergyTrend said that it expected monocrystalline product demand in China to expand from 15% in 2015 to 25% in 2016, primarily for use in PV power plants.
However, despite the increased demand, a tightening of supply and an uptick in pricing, overall capacity in 2016 will exceed demand.
As PV Tech recently reported, polysilicon supply in China is expected to tighten through the year as high levels of inventory built before heavy anti-dumping duties were imposed on major US producers took effect and are worked through. The result is an expected increase in polysilicon prices while demand increases.
EnergyTrend also confirmed that polysilicon spot prices in China had started to increase in January, noting a bottom of around US$15.95/kg to US$17.64/kg just after Chinese New Year.

Dell Mini 10 with New Atom and Linux Option
PC maker Dell has announced the Inspiron Mini 10 netbook that runs on the new Intel Atom CPU.
The Mini 10 should start appearing on the U.S. market the beginning of January 2010, just in time for the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Intel had announced the Atom platform that runs the new Mini 10 just days ago and promised to put it in devices by January. Dell could then be one of numerous vendors integrating the smaller and energy-saving Atom package on a timely basis.
The basic Inspiron Mini 10 model costs about $300. With it comes the Atom N450 processor with 1.66 GHz, a 10.1" display (at 1024 x 600 pixels), a scant 1 GByte DDR2 RAM, a three-cell battery and a 160-GByte hard disk drive. Dell also offers a few extended configurations, such as those with a Broadcom Crystal HD media accelerator, HDTV tuner, GPS, mobile broadband modem and the like. Dell promises the extended options in the "coming weeks" or, in the case of the Broadcom HD chip, in Q1 2010.
As is now usual, the vendor is playing up to the Windows 7 launch. An Ubuntu version should start appearing, again, "in the coming weeks." The oft used phrase also applies to the worldwide market release. Selected configurations are promised for the international market.

Dead Connection Detection in Oracle Database 12c
In my earlier post I discussed what Dead Connection Detection is and why you should use it – read more here Oracle TNS-12535 and Dead Connection Detection
The pre-12c implementation of DCD used TNS packages to "ping" the client and relied on the underlying TCP stack which sometimes may take longer. Now in 12c this has changed and DCD probes are implemented by TCP Stack. The DCD probes will now use the TCP KEEPALIVE socket (more...)
