Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death and disability in the USA and stiffening of central arteries is now an unquestioned independent risk factor for many such diseases, including heart attack, stroke, and end-stage renal disease. The six primary determinants of the structural stiffness of arteries are elastic fiber integrity, collagen organization, smooth muscle tone, wall thickness, axial pre-stretch, and perivascular support, each of which has a molecular and cellular basis and affects system-level hemodynamics. Easily measured clinical metrics, such as pulse wave velocity, can and must play an increasingly greater role in cardiovascular risk assessment, but we must understand much better the mechanical and biological basis for changes in such metrics. For example, the relation between pulse wave velocity and arterial stiffness is often justified based on the Moens-Korteweg equation, which ignores almost all of the key determinants of wall stiffness. Our approach is unique because we will be the first to combine genetically modified mouse models and pharmacological interventions to delineate directly the effects on the material stiffness of the wall due to the integrity of elastic fibers, organization of collagen fibers, and contractility of smooth muscle. Moreover, this information will be incorporated within a novel computational tool that will allow effects of axial prestretch, perivascular support, and most importantly spatially and temporally progressive changes in large artery wall composition on hemodynamic metrics to be rigorously assessed for the first time. In particular, we suggest that large artery stiffening likely progresses from proximal to distal large arteries and identification of the early onset of such changes (e.g., prior to marked changes in pulse wave velocity) may allow earlier diagnosis and thus more effective intervention, prior to the propagation of detrimental effects of large artery stiffening to distal muscular arteries and eventually the microvessels, changes to which may be more difficult to reverse pharmacologically. Hence, we seek to deepen our fundamental understanding of the basis of arterial stiffening and to enable better clinical assessments and treatment planning based on readily available data. Specifically, we hypothesize that central arteries stiffen due, in large part, to a cyclic-strain induced damage to or degradation of elastic fibers that likely progresses over time from proximal to distal arteries because of initial spatial distributions of elastin and associated wall strains. To test this hypothesis, we will quantify and compare for the first time progressive changes in wall mechanics, composition, and hemodynamics in 3 basic mouse models (wild-type, fibrillin-1 deficient, and fibulin-5 null), each subjected to 3 pharmacological inter- ventions (L-NAME, doxycycline, and BAPN). That is, we will use genetically modified mouse models of graded decreases in elastic fiber integrity, not initially diminished elastin, for this will allow progressive changes to be quantified independent of possible compensatory adaptations that occur during development in elastin deficient mice. We expect loss of nitric oxide (L-NAME group) to highlight a role of smooth muscle tone and exacerbate the progression of wall stiffening, diminished proteinase activity (doxycycline) to separate roles of mechanical damage and chemical degradation of elastin while attenuating wall stiffening, and inhibiting collagen cross-linking (BAPN) to separate the coupled effects of elastin on the stiffness of extant collagen from the role of new collagen deposition. The experimental data will be used to construct, verify, and validate a novel fluid-solid-interaction model that can reveal precisely the effects of individual determinants of wall stiffening on system-level hemodynamics. Once accomplished for the mouse, parametric studies will be performed on 3 prototypical models of hemodynamics in humans (young, middle-aged, and old) to reveal, for the first time, the effects of progressive wall stiffening on clinical metrics of hemodynamics such as pulse wave velocity, pulse pressure, and pulse pressure waveform. We submit that modeling studies alone can delineate effects of spatially and temporally progressive increases in arterial stiffening on system-level hemodynamics, with the potential to identify improved indicators of early stiffening that may allow an earlier clinical intervention that can prevent the longer-term irreversible changes to the microstructure that otherwise inevitably occur.
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death and disability in the USA and stiffening of central arteries is now an unquestioned independent risk factor for many such diseases, including heart attack, stroke, and end-stage renal disease. The six primary contributors to arterial stiffness are elastic fiber integrity, collagen organization, smooth muscle contractility, wall thickness, axial prestretch, and perivascular support, each of which has a molecular and cellular basis. We will be the first to combine genetically modified mouse models, pharmacological interventions, and sophisticated computational biomechanical models to delineate effects of these six contributors on arterial stiffness and hemodynamics. Our novel data will provide unique insights into mechanisms of arterial stiffening and our new fluid-solid-interaction model will increase our ability to interpret current clinical indicators of cardiovascular risk and identify new metrics that yield more information.

Interesting... and segment merging just does its own private concatenation/mapping-around-deletes of the doc/positions? I'm torn on the Multi*Enum.... it's easy to get one "by accident" (because you're interacting with multi reader) and as a result take a silent performance hit. And often the caller can easily change to operate per segment instead. But, then, it's very convenient when you need it and don't care about performance. EG in Renaud's usage, a test case that is trying to assert that all indexed docs look right, why should you be forced to operate per segment? He shouldn't have to bother with the details of which field/term/doc was indexed into which segment. Or, I guess we could argue that this test really should create a TermQuery and walk the matching docs... instead of using the low level flex enum APIs. Because searching impl already knows how to step through the segments. Anyway, my current patch on LUCENE-2111 reflects my torn-ness: it makes it just a bit harder to get Multi*Enum on a multi-reader. If you call MultiReader.fields(), it throws UnsupportedOperationException, and you must instead use MultiFields.getXXXEnum to explicitly create the enum. > Forcing pluggable index formats to support the extra level of indirection > necessary for iterating postings from a high level both introduces > inefficiency and constrains their development.

Eg, what's a "flat positions space"? And "force support for offsets". And we don't return "objects or aggregates" with Multi*Enum now... In flex right now the codec is unware that it's being "consumed" by a Multi*Enum. It still returns primitives. If instead we returned an int[] for positions (hmm -- may be a good reason to make positions be an Attribute, Uwe), I think it would still be OK? > It's not really necessary to iterate aggregated postings across multiple > segments, so IMO it's best to shunt users like Renaud towards the segment > level. Still torn... I think it's convenience vs performance. But I want convenience to be an explicit choice. We shouldn't default our APIs to a silent perf hit...

while we're awaiting on
this neverland to promise us
the turning points will count
on our everlasting lust

coming forth from out the lips
crimson coloured, candy-coated
breath that he sips
needing to become, or belong,
I doubt you must prefer

To me living a Christian life is not that easy. Some of us get criticized or made fun of. We live through a life that is not easy. We wish it would be easy but it's not, it's just how life goes being a Christian. Sometimes we wonder to ourselves, why is our life so different from others? Like why aren't we rich like those who are? Or why can't we be perfect like those who are? Well, God has something greater in store for you. He didn't want you to be like those who are rich or perfect. He wanted you to learn and love each other. He wanted you to worship and love Him. Even if we sin or curse, etc.. He would still forgive us cause He Loves us. He created us to Love and Worship, cause in John 3:16 it says, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only son, that whoever so believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life." This showed us how much God loved us. He even sent his one and only son to die on the cross for us to die for our sins. Live and love each other.

Summarized Board Decision
URS Energy and Construction, Inc. (30‑CA‑018775; 358 NLRB No. 25) Oak Creek, WI, April 5, 2012.
The Board affirmed the administrative law judge's finding that the employer violated Section 8(a)(3) of the Act by laying off charging party because of his protected activities.
Charge filed by an individual. Administrative Law Judge William N. Cates issued his decision on July 28, 2011. Members Hayes, Flynn, and Block participated.

Appellate Court Decisions
Brentwood at Hobart, Board Case No. 13-CA-46045 (reported at 355 NLRB No. 149) (6th Circuit decided April 2, 2012)
In a published decision, the Court enforced the Board's order in this refusal-to-bargain case, agreeing that the conduct of the underlying election was not objectionable.
After the union prevailed in a representation election 28‑12, the employer submitted an election objection claiming that, "[d]uring the critical period, on September 18, 2009," a union flyer featured photographs of employees without their consent. At the objections hearing, however, the employer attempted to submit a second flyer distributed on September 14, which the Board excluded as not encompassed in the exceptions.
Before the Court, the employer's sole challenge to the election claimed that the Board should have allowed it to litigate the allegedly-objectionable September 14 flyer because it generally challenged conduct occurring "during the critical period." The Court disagreed: "That may be a plausible reading of the objection, we suppose, but the Board's reading of it"--to refer only to the September 18 flyer--"is surely the more natural one." The Court further rebuffed the employer's claim that the evidentiary ruling was inconsistent with other Board case law, explaining that, even if it were, "'[t]he more germane inquiry' . . . was whether the evidentiary ruling 'was reasonable under the circumstances and limited . . . to the practicalities of the situation.'"
The Court's decision is available here.
735 Putnam Pike Operations, LLC, Board Case No. 1-CA-46619 (reported at 356 NLRB No. 138) (D.C. Circuit decided April 2, 2012).
In an unpublished judgment, the Court agreed that the employer's registered nurses were not statutory supervisors. It therefore denied the employer's petition for review of the Board's order directing it to bargain following the Board's certification of the union's 13-0 election victory.
The union petitioned to represent a unit of the employer's registered nurses, and the employer claimed that the RNs were all statutory supervisors. The Board, and then the Court, rejected that claim. The Court found that the nurses did not engage in discipline as "[t]he 'write-ups' and performance evaluations that they completed regarding other staff members were not 'final and authoritative' disciplinary actions . . . and they had no negative effects on the reviewed employees' job status or pay." Further, as the Court recognized, the nurses did not responsibly direct others because the employer failed to show that it held any nurses accountable "if the staff failed to perform as directed." Finally, the Court agreed that the employer failed to prove that nurses assigned work with independent judgment, noting the lack of evidence demonstrating they exercised discretion in the few instances where they appointed employees to specific jobs or shifts. Accordingly, because the nurses were not supervisors under Section 2(11) of the Act, the employer had no basis for refusing to bargain with the union after its election victory, and the Court enforced the Board's order.
The Court's decision is available here.
Decisions of Administrative Law Judges
47 Old Country, Inc. d/b/a Babi I; Jilly SN, Inc.; Babi Nail USA II Corp. d/b/a Babi II (29‑CA‑030247; JD(NY)‑08‑12) Bohemia, NY. Charge filed by Chinese Staff and Workers' Association. Administrative Law Judge Steven Davis issued his decision on April 3, 2012.

Byobu, a session manager for the command line
Window Fitter
The Byobu session manager extends the shell, adding a range of useful functions, such as splitting the screen, running programs in the background, or organizing programs in tabs. In particular, administrators who rely on SSH will appreciate Byobu.
If you search Wikipedia for "Byobu," you will find an article on Japanese screens. The Linux tool of the same name [1] is not as decorative, but in terms of versatility and convenience, it is similar to its counterpart from the Far East. Designed to supplement Screen, the Linux full-screen window manager, Byobu is already included in most distributions.

Rating: (3.5/5)
Oct 14 2013, Back Bay Books/Hachette Book Group, 167 pgs
Ages: (18+)
"Daniel Woodrell is able to lend uncanny logic to harsh, even criminal, behaviour in his wrenching first collection of short fiction. Desperation - both material and psychological - motivates his characters. A husband cruelly avenges the murder of his wife's pet; an injured rapist is cared for by a young girl, until she reaches breaking point; a disturbed veteran of Iraq is murdered for his erratic behaviour; an outsider's house is set on fire by an angry neighbour. There is also the tenderness and loyalty of the vulnerable in these stories - between spouses, parents and children, siblings and comrades in arms - which brings the troubled, sorely tested cast of characters to vivid, relatable life."
Purchased new from an online retailer.
Withe the completion of this collection of short stories I have now read Woodrell's complete oeuvre. Being such an accomplished author of the short novel, I was looking forward to reading this collection of short stories thinking he would excel at this form as well. I have to say I was somewhat disappointed overall. On the whole, I found the stories to be okay. Of the twelve I thought three were excellent, one I didn't like, leaving the rest simply in the generally "good" category. One thing that did bother me was there was no copyright page for the stories, so I didn't know which were earlier works and which were newer. An interesting piece was the inclusion of "Woe to Live On", obviously the short story that proceeded his novel of the same name. Very good, the same as the novel but different as well.
1. The Echo of Neighborly Bones - An Ozark man kills his Minnesotan neighbor, a rude opinionated man. He keeps going back to revisit and rekill the corpse while we learn of the Minnesotans affronts to the man. It isn't until the end we learn the real reason he was killed. Short, but mesmerising. (3/5)
2. Uncle - A woman and her daughter are abused by her (I guess dead) husband's evil brother. He also takes lone tourist college girls floating down the river and rapes them. One day the daughter hits him viciously over the head blaming it on his last victim and now she had a 200 lb baby in a wheelchair to look after. This is creepy and where it heads and finishes is creepy too. (4/5)
3. Twin Forks - A fine story to read, haunting, but it's just weird. An event occurs but it is more about the man's past, his feelings, his having a moment in life and choosing which "fork" in the road to take. (3/5)
4. Florianne - Well this one is just kinda creepy. Very short. A father ruminates on his daughter's whereabouts, now 11 years since she went missing. He imagines where she might be buried, suspects anyone might have raped and murdered her. Everyone else thinks she ran off. (3/5)
5. Black Step - This one is longer than the others so far. It is the story of a young man back from one of the desert wars, waiting to hear if he can go back. Told through his voice, it is a depressing tale of a depressing life in rural wherever. Nothing happens but a world is created and surrounded by death everywhere, life goes on. (4/5)
6. Night Stand - Another longer one dealing with PTSD in soldiers from Vietnam and Iraq. A couple wakes up in bed one evening to find an intruder standing naked at the end of their bed growling. The line is blurred as to who is the victim and who is the attacker and almost disappears as their similarities are revealed. My favourite so far. (5/5)
7. Two Things - An obviously uneducated man is visited by a woman who tells him his incarcerated son has become an accomplished poet. He's not impressed. I agreed with him. Short. (3/5)
8. The Horse in Our History - A black man goes to an ancestral town and asks questions of a relative who walked in front of a train in the sixties. He gathers quite a collection of somewhat contradicting stories. Loved the atmosphere and could have liked this to turn into a whole book. But much too short to really feel anything for the characters as I'm finding in all these stories. (3/5)
9. Woe to Live On - I'm annoyed this collection doesn't give the dates the stories were first published but we'll have to assume this short story came before the novel. I recall the events described here from reading the novel but they are sandwiched between an older Jake now in WWI days experiencing the fallout of his Civil War actions with his now grown up son and young grandsons. The best story in the collection and I'll be surprised if I find any of the next ones better than this. (5/5)
10. Dream Spot - This is just plain weird. Not sure what happened or what it's supposed to mean :( (2/5)
11. One United - Well now, this is rather haunting. I'll be musing upon this to fully "get" it. The story reveals itself piece by piece as it unfolds. Funnily enough, it is narrated by a female, which doesn't become apparent for a bit. She is related to the man, perhaps his daughter, and she is back home and well now. He wants her to dress "decent" now, put on a polka dot dress he bought her, comb her hair and we don't know why she was not well; she could have come home from hospital but something kept me thinking it was psychiatric. They go for a visit and as I say everything is revealed slowly. (3/5)
12. Returning the River - Very good one to end the book with. Short but meaningful. Starts with an old man running through a field after his son who has just set the neighbour's house on fire. A story of familial love. (5/5)

These are my ramblings on some of the books I read. To read about all the books I read and comment on, visit me at LibraryThing or Goodreads.
I've been blogging since 2007 and at this point (July 2015) am trying my hand at turning the theme of this blog towards mystery, thriller, and crime, fiction and nonfiction. I have some special interest topics and categories within this broad genre which include (but are not limited to) serial killers, scandi-crime, Victorian history and historicals, history of the criminally insane and asylums, psychopathology, death, funerary practices and burial, corpses, true crime and anything dealing with the real life macabre, or that portrayed in fiction.
I also read a short story a day from various collections, sometimes anthologies othertimes collections of a single author's work. These reviews are also posted here and while they are of mixed genre the mystery, thriller, horror, gothic and macabre often appear within their pages as well.
I also blog about graphic novels and manga on a separate BLOG.

BOCA RATON, Fla. — Jess Perkins hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning to break open a scoreless game, and the Illini went on to beat Hofstra 2-0 on Sunday.
Brandi Needham allowed four hits and walked one over eight stellar innings for the Illini, who picked up their first win of the weekend in four tries.
In their opener Sunday, the Illini lost 5-2 in eight innings to No. 14 South Alabama. Illinois (13-6) tied the game in the seventh inning on a sacrifice fly from Katie Repole and an RBI single from K. Johnson.
But South Alabama answered with a big inning in the eighth, scoring three runs on two hits.
"Our win today was the biggest we have had all year, a true testament to the strong will of this team," Illini coach Terri Sullivan said. "After an extra-inning loss to a talented and mature South Alabama team, we had a big challenge in facing Hofstra."
In baseball:
Offense falters in loss. Starting pitcher Drasen Johnson allowed four hits and one run — on a two-out single in the eighth — but the Illini mustered only four hits in a 1-0 loss at Western Kentucky on Sunday.
Jason Goldstein was 2 for 4, and the Illini left six runners on base as they were swept by the Hilltoppers.
"Drasen gave us a great performance," UI coach Dan Hartleb said. "He competed very well and deserved to win. From an offensive standpoint, we didn't do a good job. We struck out too many times and didn't swing at strikes."
In men's tennis:
Illini double fun. Farris Gosea, Tim Kopinski, Blake Bazarnik and Alex Jesse went 2-0 in singles as the Illini beat Purdue (5-2) and Detroit Mercy (7-0) on Sunday at Atkins Tennis Center. The sixth-ranked Illini won the doubles point in both matches.
In women's tennis:
Illini fall. Alexis Casati and Jerricka Boone won singles matches, but the Illini dropped a 5-2 decision at Purdue.
Illinois, which lost to Northwestern 7-0 on Saturday, is 0-2 in the Big Ten.
"Obviously, this isn't how we had hoped to start the Big Ten season," Illini coach Michelle Dasso. "The only thing we can do now is reevaluate, work harder, and use this as motivation to reinvent ourselves for the second half of our season."
In volleyball:
Commitment honored. Illini commitment Jackie Quade was an elite honorable-mention selection for the PrepVolleyball.com Soph 79. The website on Saturday announced its list of the nation's top sophomores during the 2013 season.
Quade is a 6-foot-2 middle blocker for Fort Wayne (Ind.) Carroll High School.
Projected as an outside hitter in college, Quade totaled 375 kills, 77 blocks, 138 digs and 36 service aces for the 28-8 Chargers last fall.

According to Phil Newton the new head of Samsung's consumer electronics division the service which goes live today will set Samsung apart from other device manufacturers.
The new service will also be available on the Samsung range of Tablets if the Company is allowed to launch their 10.1 and 7" Android tablets in Australia following an application by Apple to the Federal Court to ban the devices from going on sale for alleged patent breaches.
According to EMI the Australian market has witnessed 30% "digital" growth during the past 12 months.The overall music market was worth $384m in 2010 of which digital was $104m. Half year figures for 2011 not yet published but show continued positive growth for digital.
According to Newton who took over the Consumer Electronics and AV division at Samsung a few months ago the new service is the only service that runs over multiple devices.
"This is just the start, content is going to be a key driver for devices in the future and we are lucky at Samsung that we have several devices that we can stream the service to".
Newton admitted that next year Samsung will launch new TV's that will have built in fast processors that allow users to interface with multiple devices, access content while giving them the power to play a multitude of both music and video content.
Samsung Australia is also set to launch a new Universal Application in partnership with Telstra that allows users of their T"Samsung has worked closely with the major record labels to locally develop this service exclusively for the Australian market," said Tyler McGee, Vice President of Telecommunications, Samsung Electronics Australia.

If, as expected, Liverpool conclude an pounds 8m deal with Newcastle for Dietmar Hamann this week it will mean that one club alone have paid out more than pounds 25m for new blood; in other words, a quarter of the entire close-season expenditure by the elite.
Anfield's seven recruits so far are from the Czech Republic, Finland, Guinea, the Netherlands and Switzerland respectively, a list that is merely the most extreme manifestation of a trend within an English game which is now home to more non-nationals than any nation in the world.
Even without the Hamann fee, the overall outlay on foreigners already based here or from overseas clubs is nudging the pounds 65m mark after the Villa manager, John Gregory - who took an all-English side to the Premiership summit last autumn - made Boateng and Israel's Naguwan Garayeb his first imports. That sum is over pounds 26m more than the money invested in British players.
Worryingly for those who see the Nationwide League as a breeding ground for the top English teams, only four players from clubs who were in the lower divisions last season have found their way into the Premiership.
A situation whereby young British talent is squeezed out by ready-made internationals from Europe and beyond is sufficiently alarming for Geoff Thompson, the chairman of the Football Association, to have called for each club to be limited to three foreign players.
Such protestations, alas, bring to mind the words "stable door", "horse" and "bolted". Even if it were possible to roll back the tide of European integration and restrict the entry of players in a way that is currently illegal under European Union law, there would still be the problem of the over-pricing of home-grown players.
Arsenal, for example, paid only pounds 650,000 for Stefan Malz, a midfield player from TSV Munich 1860, yet are seeking pounds 4m for Stephen Hughes, who has been no more than a fringe player at Highbury.
Chelsea initially sought pounds 6m for Michael Duberry, who has found himself similarly marginalised, before accepting Leeds United's offer of pounds 4.5m. Meanwhile, it took a mere pounds 3m for Chelsea to secure France's World Cup-winning captain, Didier Deschamps, from Juventus.
Apart from the pounds 10m Gianluca Vialli lavished on Chris Sutton (after four goals in an injury-ravaged season with relegated Blackburn), the highest fee exchanged between English clubs is the pounds 6m spent by Newcastle on the Ipswich midfielder Kieron Dyer. While a hugely promising player, Dyer has played neither for England nor in the Premiership.
Wolves are seeking an even higher sum, believed to be pounds 6.5m, for their own prodigy, Robbie Keane, despite the fact that the 19-year-old Irishman's experience at club level has, like Dyer's, come exclusively in the First Division. Sir Alex Ferguson was being deliberately provocative when he suggested pounds 500,000 would be a more realistic price for Keane, but he had a point.
Even a player who could not break up Sunderland's first-choice attacking duo in the First Division last season, Michael Bridges, is rated at pounds 5m by both the selling club and, apparently, by Tottenham.
Small wonder that Arsene Wenger, admittedly talking in the context of Nicolas Anelka and the tedious saga of his on-off escape from London and the beastly British press, spoke recently of football being "out of control" because of spiralling transfer fees and wage demands. (Wenger, incidentally, has signed just two Englishmen, Jermaine Pennant and Matthew Upson, in his three years at Arsenal).
The notion that the Premiership clubs are living beyond their means gains currency when one considers that expenditure is outstripping the amount earned by offloading players at no fewer than 11 clubs this summer.
At five more - Manchester United, Middlesbrough, Leice ter, Watford and Southampton - the managers have not splashed out so much as a euro to date. There are, nevertheless, hidden costs: Mark Bosnich's arrival from Aston Villa under the Bosman ruling cost the Treble winners a sizeable sum in terms of the Australian's salary and signing-on fee.
At Everton, who are pounds 10.5m up on their dealings, the perception of renewed financial clout may be illusory given the uncertainty over the club's ownership. The same is true of Wimbledon, where the surplus of pounds 3m generated since Egil Olsen succeeded Joe Kinnear as manager is not necessarily available for team-building, according to Sam Hammam.
So who are the new members of the foreign legion, following the trail blazed by Ardiles and Villa, Thijssen and Muhren, and in the modern era by Messrs Klinsmann, Zola and Bergkamp? The most expensive, at pounds 5m, is the Spanish international centre-back Marcelino Elena, whom Ruud Gullit has brought from Mallorca to Newcastle. His new club-mate Alain Goma, from Paris Saint-Germain, set Gullit back a further pounds 4.7m, though it is hard to see either lighting up St James' Park the way David Ginola or Faustino Asprilla once did.
Liverpool fans are more likely to get excited by the deft attacking skills of Vladimir Smicer, who could prove a bargain even at pounds 4.2m. Scotland supporters could certainly vouch from bitter experience for the Czech's quality, as they could for the flair of Mustapha Hadji, the African player of the year and the Tartan Army's tormentor at St-Etienne, who will be bringing a dash of Morocco to Coventry.
But the suspicion that the Premiership, for all its current Sky-driven wealth, is still attracting "B-list" players who would not find a place in the top Italian sides may be reinforced by Arsenal's newcomers. Apart from Malz, who was not rated among the Bundesliga's outstanding midfielders, the new right-back from Kiev, Oleg Luzhny, is pushing 31, while left-back Silvinho did not make Brazil's squad for Copa America.

Organic Salsa
|Corn tortillas
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Anaheim pepper
|Red onion
|1 , diced
|Chili powder
|1 Teaspoon
|Chopped garlic
|1 1⁄2 Tablespoon
|1 Teaspoon
|Freshly ground pepper
|To Taste
|Fresh cilantro
|1 Teaspoon, coarsely chopped
1. Cut the corn tortillas in small pieces and put them on a cookie sheet. Spray the tortilla pieces with oil spray.
2. Set the oven on broil. It takes about 2 mins on each side, when you put the baking sheet inside the broiler.
3. Put the whole tomatoes inside the blender. Smash them to get some juice for blending. Destem the pepper and put into the blender. Add the diced red onions. Add some chili powder, garlic, salt and freshly ground pepper. Use the pulse button to blend the salsa. This will make the salsa chunky.
4. In a medium bowl, first put the cilantro leaves and then pour the salsa. Stir well with a spoon. Serve the salsa alongside the freshly baked tortilla chips.

Islamist group takes control of central Somalia town
Mogadishu: Islamist rebel group Al Shabaab took control of a central Somali trading town after fighting that killed at least 13 people, residents said on Saturday.
Residents said the group took Gurael town after three days of fighting with a government allied Sunni group.
The battle began after Al Shabaab fighters arrested a teacher of that group, they said.
Witnesses spoke of chaos in the area, with bullets being fired on vehicles full of fleeing residents. Three women were killed in one lorry, they said.
More than 5,000 Gurael residents had fled the violence, human rights groups said.

nice upgrade for a 3.7 jeep!
Reviewed By Steven W (Rensselaer, NY) Reviewed for a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee —10/31/2016 2:10 PM
I bought this for my 06 jeep grand cherokee with the 3.7 V6. it has a 2 in lift and bigger tires (31's, i didnt want to go too big since its my daily). i bought the programmer mainly for tire size calibration for my speedometer, but i was pleasantly surprised by the performance increase from the tunes. great power increase across the RPM range, throttle response is instant (i also have an injen cold air intake), its no race car but its a nice addition. MPG's increased also. only con is price
Best Programmer Ever!!!!!!
Reviewed By John R (Lamoille, NV) Reviewed for a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee —6/9/2016 5:37 PM
I recently purchased the 2006 jeep used with 123,000 miles. I was getting 14.5 MPG. TERRIBLE!!So I looked into chips and decided on the Traildash2. I was I little concerned about about the price of $499.00. Despite my concerns I went ahead and bought it anyway. The down loading and programming process is a little challenging but after a number of phone calls to Superchips I got it all done. I am now getting 22 MPG around town. It also fixed my inaccurate speedometer.I couldn't be more pleased!

[PHOTO] Mislabeled dark | Sun, 20 Apr 2003 00:21:36" />
I have several iris mislabeled in my garden. I know that has NEVER EVER
happened to any of you and the" Helps" that I have seen the past week or
so are purely coincidental.
If some of you Identification Wizards could help, I would be most grateful.
I have had iris blooming like mad for the past two weeks, but I leave
the house at 6;45 for school and that's not the best time of the day to
snap photos. The result is that only those that are in good bloom on
weekends get photographed as I get home too late to get good photos.
I will send one other and refrain for a while in the hopes someone will
post something that I can correlate with what I have that is labeled
Thanx for your help in advance,

This is a Mexican restaurant with wonderful food and it is prepared the way you want it. Service is friendly.
Not a Tex-Mex place great food. LOVE THE FLAJITA. good Margarita's. Well designed, with out side dinning
My husband and I went to Frijoles and loved it. The servers are very nice, there is an area to eat outside and the food was really good. Just don't expect authentic Mexican - this is more Tex-Mex style.
I had the mini-chimis (3 mini chimichangas with rice, beans and guac) and it was remarkably delicious.
Worth a visit!!! We'll...
We had a good meal here but it wasn't anything special. Reminded me of On The Border or any of the large chains. Good food, for a decent price, but nothing special.
This is good food with some dinner specials during the week. Everything we've tried has been good. The refried beans leave something to be desired as they are bland to my taste. The margaritas are really sweet and flavorful but I don't sense much tequila. My wife says the same thing.
Very happy with the food and service. Everybody enjoyed their meals. Kept the chips and salsa full the entire time. Drinks were good as well.
We ate here for the first time tonight. We waited so long at the podium that my husband just got us place settings and menus an we sat ourselves. Ridiculous, I wanted to leave but he was exhausted from work so we decided to try n tough it out. An boy was it a battle. The waitress acted like she...
Patio, bar, dining area. Tables or booth. Friendly service. Good variety. Pleasant surroundings. Multiple TVs!
The food and service received was excellent. We were immediately seated and within minutes our drink + food order was taken. Less than 20 minutes our dinner arrived. I had the Durango which was thee different enchiladas and others had taco salad and steak burrito. The food was very well presented and appetizing. The chips and salsa was fresh but...
Small place that we visited with family members who live nearby, but what a nice surprise! Service was great, staff friendly and responsive and food was fantastic! One of the best relleno's I believe I've ever had. Very reasonable prices - highly recommended!

Hard-work and determination all with the same vision. Two best friends who decided to become business partners while bringing their bikini perception to conception, to now owning one of the top swimwear brands sold globally! Owners of Acacia Swimwear Naomi and Lyndie have made it! A bikini line known for "more skin the better" which we could not agree with more, features infused styles between the low-cut Italian bikini and the classic Brazilian fit. Acacia Swimwear embodies effortless femininity with a side of sophistication. With the launch of Acacia Swimwear in 2008, Naomi and Lyndie took their dreams into reality by embedding their daily lives inspirations such as travel, the beach lifestyle, tribal and tropical motifs, with a spin on Native American heritage and turned it into a collection for each season. Having carried Acacia since the beginning, we have been able to see the growth in Acacia and could not be happier for these two. Meeting them in Miami for Miami Swim Week and having the first appointment of the morning, we knew this season's 2016 collection would kill it! Catching up with the designer duo as they just headed home from Bali while finalizing the 2017 collection, here are some inspirations for you Vida's to get to know the kini' designers themselves!
The 2016 collection is killing it, what was your inspiration with your key print Aloha and the colors chosen?
Naomi: Our Aloha print is a new version of our older Vintage Aloha print. It did so well and everyone wanted it back we thought we would bring it back in a new colorway. It speaks Hawaii and Hawaii is where we are from. Aloha inspired prints are mandatory for us :).
I am also obsessed with neutrals so that is why you can see a lot of neutrals in our collections with pops of bright!
When did you guys decide you wanted to start your own line?
Naomi: Oh gosh. Ages ago. I made my first samples in Indonesia back in 2006. In high school I was sewing my own bikinis then I met my manufacturer and didn't have to anymore.
Lyndie: Modeling swimwear as far back as I can remember and owning my own line was a huge dream.
What was the first step you took in starting up your own line?
Naomi: Learning how to sew my own suits was very crucial for me. That was the beginning of it all and really the ground work of acacia.
Lyndie: Many years ago modeling Naomis first few suits that she had made led us to teaming up and starting Acacia.
Tips for our Bikini lovers on becoming successful business women?
Naomi: Follow your heart. Sounds cheesy but its so true. Don't let people tell you anything otherwise. If you believe in something stick by it! Everyone put us down for our small cut bottoms during the early stages of ACACIA but I stuck by what I loved and believed in and look at the success of the minimum coverage bottoms today
Lyndie: Making your dreams your reality! Set goals and stick to them and love what you do. We stuck to our smaller cuts and what we love and it all worked out.
We know you have been in Bali lately besides the whole design process what is the best part about being there?
Naomi: The beautiful kind people, the culture, our Bali family, the food and the beauty. It's our second home!
Lyndie: Love Bali! Love the yummy restaurants, beautiful people and the warm ocean waters. We are so fortunate to be able to go to Bali and work because the energy there is so inspiring and uplifting.
Aside from having such crazy schedules with traveling and working so much what are some of your favorite things to do in your spare time?
Naomi: Swim, Surf (when not pregnant), play with my fur baby Bronx and just lay low with family and friends. I love being home! Beautiful beaches and waterfalls are basically in our back yard. We are very fortunate.
Lyndie: Living in Hawaii is truly a blessing and I find that we tend to enjoy the more simple things in life. I enjoy running, bike rides, bikram yoga, hikes and the beach to surf. I love being outdoors and getting some sort of exercise. I enjoy having my friends and kids over for BBQs and a swim at my house on the weekends.
So you guys were just designing for your 2017 collection can you give us any inside details about the new collection
Naomi: Hm that's hard. We never like to leek any info but we know you will love it! Stay tuned as we get closer to launch for sneak peeks towards the end of the year and during Fashion Week in Miami!
Lyndie what are your favorite times with you and Axel?
Lyndie: We have so much fun together. I would have to say just spending quality time with him is my favorite . We love to skate, surf, hike and camp together. We love any sort of adventure but we also love just snuggling up on the couch and watching movies.
Naomi, how did you feel when you found out you were going to become a Mom? (Naomi is expecting)
Naomi: Oh man. I wanted it so badly and then it happened and to be honest I didn't feel very excited. But in my defense I have had a very difficult pregnancy….every lame pregnancy symptom in the books I have had. I still don't understand how some woman love pregnancy. But despite the tough times I am very excited to meet baby boy. I will be surrounded by all boys
Naomi and Lyndie Themselves
Favorite spot in Bali:
Naomi: Too many to list. Fun and beautiful beaches are endless. Yummy café's are endless.
Lyndie: I love being in the ocean so I would have to say the beaches.
Favorite Indulgence:
Naomi: I'm a pie lover. Blackberry pie is my weakness. I could eat a whole one to myself in one sitting!
Lyndie: Spa treatments and Mexican food!
Song that best describes you Lyndie?
Lyndie: Isreal Kamakawiwo'ole – Hele on to Kauai . It's a song about the beautiful island of Kauai that I live on and it truly makes my soul happy
Your go-to Acacia Piece:
Naomi: Kanaio top / Hookipa bottom + Napali mesh top / Ho'okipa mesh bottom
Lyndie: Manhattan Top / Ho'okipia Bottom. Locals top / Axel Bottom. Ehukai
Acacia continues to be one of the strongest collections on our site, we hope you enjoyed getting to meet the designers as we love sharing their collection with you season after season :)! Shop all Acacia through our link directly below!

New York Post Office Expands Service and Hours for Tax Night
Apr 14, 2004, 01:00 ET from United States Postal Service
NEW YORK, April 14 /PRNewswire/ -- New York post offices are ramping up for Tax Day, April 15, by expanding services and expanding hours, announced Vinnie Malloy, District Manager/Postmaster of New York. The James A. Farley Post Office, located at Eighth Avenue and 33rd Street is open 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. "We'll be supplementing our regular window services with six mobile post offices parked in front of the building on Eighth Avenue to help with the expected 20,000 customers that day," said Malloy. The Bronx General Post Office, located at East 149th Street and the Grand Concourse, will also remain open until midnight that day, in tune with mobile units adding to their services. Additionally, customers will benefit by the many Manhattan post offices that regularly stay open later on Thursday evenings, some until 9:00 p.m. Those post offices are listed below. "We are encouraging customers to avoid the rush and mail their tax returns as early in the day as possible," said Malloy. "Many people wait until the last day, but that doesn't have to mean waiting until the last minute." The postmaster is recommending that last minute filers deposit their tax returns on the way to work or through their workplace's outgoing mail. "If they use a mailbox, they just need to make sure they deposit their return before the last collection," she added. The IRS will not be setting up in the James A.
