Mordell Moves to Duchossois Industries, Inc.
ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Il. (August 13, 2001) -- Thomas H. Meeker, president and chief executive officer of Churchill Downs Incorporated ("CDI") (Nasdaq: CHDN) and Richard L. Duchossois, chairman of the board of Arlington Park and CDI's largest shareholder, today announced the promotion of Steve Sexton to president of Arlington Park. Sexton, who joined Arlington as executive vice president in May 2001, will assume the duties currently handled by Scott Mordell, who is resigning as president and chief executive officer effective Aug. 31 to become executive vice president of Duchossois Industries Inc. ("DII").
Mordell was named president and chief executive officer of Arlington in March 1995 after serving as vice president of finance and administration since 1991.
"Scott has been an excellent leader and is, in large part, responsible for the improved quality of Thoroughbred racing at Arlington, which is bringing new life and vitality into the industry as a whole in Illinois," said Duchossois. "We are grateful for his enthusiastic dedication over the last 10 years and look forward to working with him at DII."
"I would like to thank Scott for supporting the transition after CDI's merger with Arlington last year," said Meeker. "Though he was ready to make this move a year ago, he agreed as part of our merger negotiations to remain at Arlington through the appropriate transition period to ensure a smooth and successful integration of the two companies. He has more than fulfilled his promises and responsibilities, and we wish him well."
As executive vice president of DII, Mordell will be a member of the senior management team and will continue to be involved in racing through DII's major ownership position in CDI. Duchossois Industries Inc. is a privately held diversified manufacturing and service organization, headquartered in Elmhurst, Illinois. DII has operations in the United States, Mexico and Europe and employs more than 8,000 people.
"I have certainly learned a great deal and enjoyed my tenure at Arlington," said Mordell. "After 11 years in racing, I believe it is important for me at this time in my life to move on and tackle new business challenges and opportunities."
Under his leadership, Mordell fostered Arlington's quality reputation and built a strong operating team while seeing the company through very difficult business and political challenges. A graduate of Michigan State University and the Kellogg School at Northwestern University, Mordell has a broad background in business, with an emphasis on strategy development and profit improvement initiatives. Before entering racing, Mordell worked on the corporate staff at DII and in the public accounting practices of Deloitte and Touche and KPMG Peat Marwick in his hometown of Detroit, Mich.
After joining Arlington three months ago, Sexton assumes the role of racetrack president and senior vice president of CDI's Illinois operations. Throughout his extensive racing career, Sexton has marketed and managed top horse racing facilities throughout the country including Santa Anita, Golden Gate Fields, Canterbury Park, and most recently Lone Star Park in Texas, which he helped establish as a new and vibrant Southern racing center. He also consulted on the marketing of Ladbroke's Wyoming OTB network, which included six sites, and assisted with the overall implementation of the 15-site Northern California OTB network.
"Steve is one of the most accomplished and innovative executives in our industry and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Arlington," said Meeker. "His vast experience has prepared him for this important role, and we believe he will be a great asset in our mission to return Illinois Thoroughbred horseracing to the prominence it once enjoyed."
"I'm thrilled to be leading an incredible organization in managing the most beautiful racing facility in the world," said Sexton. "Arlington has a top-rate team that is up to the challenges involved with growing our sport, and I look forward to working with them as we build on Arlington's tradition of excellence."
A graduate of Claremont McKenna College, with a double major in economics and psychology, Sexton began his 18-year career in racetrack management at Santa Anita in 1983 as sales promotion manager.
Churchill Downs Incorporated - headquartered in Louisville, Ky. - is one of the world's leading horse racing companies. Its flagship operation, Churchill Downs, is home of the Kentucky Derby and will host the race's 128th running on May 4, 2002. The Company owns additional racetracks in Kentucky, Illinois, California and Florida and has interests in a pari-mutuel operation in Indiana as well as various racing services companies. CDI trades on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol CHDN and can be found on the Internet at www.churchilldownsincorporated.com.
Arlington Park, the Chicago area's premier Thoroughbred racetrack, located in Arlington Heights, Ill., is conducting its 102-day live racing meet June 13 to Oct. 28, 2001. Arlington Park, which merged with Churchill Downs Incorporated in September 2000, also operates off-track betting facilities at Trackside at Arlington Park; Quad City Downs; and in Chicago, Rockford, and Waukegan, Ill. Arlington Park can be found on the Internet at www.arlingtonpark.com.

The analysis of size-segregated cloud condensation nuclei counter (CCNC) data and its implications for cloud droplet activation
- DOI: 10.5194/acp-13-10285-2013
Ambient aerosol, CCN (cloud condensation nuclei) and hygroscopic\nproperties were measured with a size-segregated CCNC (cloud condensation\nnuclei counter) in a boreal environment of southern Finland at the SMEAR\n(Station for Measuring Ecosystem-Atmosphere Relations) II station. The\ninstrumental setup operated at five levels of supersaturation S covering\na range from 0.1-1% and measured particles with a size range of 20-300\nnm; a total of 29 nonconsecutive months of data are presented. The\nmedian critical diameter D-c ranged from 150 nm at S of 0.1% to 46 nm\nat S of 1.0 %. The median aerosol hygroscopicity parameter kappa ranged\nfrom 0.41 at S of 0.1% to 0.14 at S of 1.0 %, indicating that ambient\naerosol in Hyytiala is less hygroscopic than the global continental or\nEuropean continental averages. It is, however, more hygroscopic than the\nambient aerosol in an Amazon rainforest, a European high Alpine site or\na forested mountainous site. A fairly low hygroscopicity in Hyytiala is\nlikely a result of a large organic fraction present in the aerosol mass\ncomparative to other locations within Europe. A considerable difference\nin particle hygroscopicity was found between particles smaller and\nlarger than similar to 100 nm in diameter, possibly pointing out to the\neffect of cloud processing increasing kappa of particles > 100 nm in\ndiameter. The hygroscopicity of the smaller, similar to 50 nm particles\ndid not change seasonally, whereas particles with a diameter of similar\nto 150 nm showed a decreased hygroscopicity in the summer, likely\nresulting from the increased VOC emissions of the surrounding boreal\nforest and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation. For the most part,\nno diurnal patterns of aerosol hygroscopic properties were found.\nExceptions to this were the weak diurnal patterns of small, similar to\n50 nm particles in the spring and summer, when a peak in hygroscopicity\naround noon was observed. No difference in CCN activation and\nhygroscopic properties was found on days with or without atmospheric new\nparticle formation. During all seasons, except summer, a CCN-inactive\nfraction was found to be present, rendering the aerosol of 75-300 nm in\ndiameter as internally mixed in the summer and not internally mixed for\nthe rest of the year.

Several shades of Boz Scaggs at Grove gig
Nice and smooth -- that was the modus operandi for much of Boz Scaggs' 90-minute O.C. concert Tuesday night. No surprise there.
After a spacey blues-rock stint in 1967-68 with frequent collaborator Steve Miller, the singer-guitarist became a prominent purveyor of blue-eyed soul, alongside Hall & Oates, Average White Band and others during the '70s.
Early on, Scaggs recorded with the famed Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and put out several critically acclaimed albums. But he found major success with 1976's Silk Degrees, a sleek melange of R&B, pop, rock and disco that became a multi-platinum totem of the decade and spun off three multi-format Top 40 singles. Scaggs then reached his commercial zenith in 1980, when both his ninth album Middle Man and the compilation Hits! kept him in the upper echelon of Billboard's Hot 100 chart for an entire year.
Yet, retreating from the spotlight, he next focused on running San Francisco nightclub Slim's and released just one other album in the '80s. The next two decades found him unveiling new material only sporadically, delving into blues and, more recently, tackling standards (see 2003's casual, jazzy But Beautiful or 2008's Speak Low, featuring Rogers & Hart and Hoagy Carmichael interpretations).
Scaggs also became a winemaker and added another music venue to his business portfolio (the baroque, century-old Great American Music Hall, where I had the pleasure of seeing Brendan Benson last year on a trip to the Bay Area).
The veteran musician -- who turned 66 at this Grove of Anaheim gig -- was greeted by fans at the slightly more than half-filled venue who constantly shouted "happy birthday!" (Later, Scaggs' six-piece band would mark the occasion by uncorking some poppers and indulging a quick serenade.)
Despite his reputation for penning romantic songs, Scaggs really excels at bluesier numbers, like the two vintage ones that bookended his 14-song set. Opener "Runnin' Blue," from 1971's Boz Scaggs & Band, found the frontman displaying tasteful electric guitar chops as the other musicians took turns at solos. Then it was onto the luxurious groove of "Jojo," prompting a wildly enthusiastic audience response.
Before launching into the more rock-oriented "Some Change," Scaggs said, "We haven't done this one in a while. I wish we'd brought it out a few years ago," referring to the Barack Obama election period. The humorous cover of Fats Domino's "Sick and Tired" brought some New Orleans style boogie-woogie to the proceedings, with Michael Logan playing fine barrelhouse piano and backing singer Miss Monet giving it her sassy best.
Bassist Richard Patterson and Monet's robust harmonies throughout the show proved invaluable, especially whenever Scaggs' creamy upper range thinned out (as it did during the idyllic "Harbor Lights," a sweeping "Georgia" and the stark, piano-led drama of "Look What You've Done to Me"). The seated audience was up and dancing briefly amid the jazzy, more-sedate-than-usual "Lowdown," a favorite to sample among rappers over the years.
For a while, Scaggs appeared to run on autopilot onstage, but he eventually loosened up during the latter track's ad-libbed ending. "Miss Sun" resulted in a fun exchange when Scaggs' electric guitar and Monet's cries tangled for some call-and-response action. The gospel/soul take on Bonnie Raitt's "Something to Talk About" found Scaggs content to play subtle rock flourishes in the background, while Monet led the way with Aretha Franklin-style wails.
Scaggs and guitarist Drew Zingg bolstered "Lido Shuffle" by appending some blues licks, and that main set closer had fans clapping and singing along loudly. Come encore time, the flowery disco vibe of "What Can I Say" found Scaggs hitting both the high and low notes with ease (maybe he just needed to warm up awhile).
But the show's shining moment was saved for last: an epic blues jam workout on "Loan Me a Dime," off his 1969 self-titled debut, originally featuring guitarist Duane Allman. Scaggs totally immersed himself in the tune, displaying dexterous tandem runs with Zingg and singing with authority, as if a fog had been lifted. Meanwhile, the band pulled out all the stops instrumentally. I wouldn't have minded witnessing more of Scaggs' repertoire that way.

text: Marvel Screened Guardians of the Galaxy for the Co-Creator of RocketKatharine Trendacosta8/04/14 12:00amFiled to: guardians of the galaxydaily cryrocket raccoonbill mantlomarveldisneymovies90104EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Excuse us, there's something in our eyes. Bill Mantlo, who created Rocket Raccoon with artist Keith Giffen, suffered a traumatic brain injury from a hit-and-run accident in 1992. So today, Marvel found a way to screen the film for him. Advertisement Michael Mantlo, Bill Mantlo's brother, wrote on Facebook this morning:*****WHAT AN INCREDIBLE DAY FOR BILL MANTLO*****! Marvel hooked Bill up with a PRIVATE VIEWING of "Guardians Of The Galaxy", and my wife Liz and my beloved cousin Jean assisted Bill throughout, enabling him to sit back, relax and relish in the AWESOMENESS of what is going to be, in my humble opinion, Marvel's GREATEST AND MOST SUCCESSFUL FILM EVER! Bill thoroughly enjoyed it, giving it his HIGHEST COMPLIMENT (the BIG "THUMB'S UP!"), and when the credits rolled, his face was locked into the HUGEST SMILE I HAVE EVER SEEN HIM WEAR (along with one or two tears of joy)! This was the GREATEST DAY OF THE LAST 22 YEARS for me, our family, and most importantly, BILL MANTLO!He later updated the post with a photo and further explanation: The gentlemen that made it possible for Bill to see his creation, ROCKET RACCOON, come alive in "Guardians Of The Galaxy", Marvel Attorney David Althoff (far left) and Marvel VP David Bogart (center). Giving Bill this opportunity was a daunting challenge (with all the legal & security protocols that needed to be breached), but these two FINE MEN made it happen, and Bill had the HAPPIEST DAY OF HIS LIFE! I will NEVER be able to thank them enough for all that they have done for Bill!Given that the movie brought audiences a lot of joy (and brought it to SO MANY), it feels only appropriate that Marvel/Disney would do this. And it's thankfully not the only thing that they've done, as Michael Mantlo told Bleeding Cool earlier this year: Advertisement Bill was treated in an exceptionally fair manner by Marvel/Disney, and on his behalf I can say with the utmost confidence that we are very pleased with the negotiated contract. And, unbeknownst toALL,Marvel has made incredibly generous gestures apart from this particular contract (which ONLY pertains to the rights to the character Rocket Raccoon) to assist in Bill's ongoing care & rehabilitation.Information about Donations for Bill Mantlo can be made here and donations for other comic creators can be made at Hero Initiative.

Fox Point — Many in the North Shore were caught by surprise when the John Michael Kohler Arts Center announced in late March that it would move the environment of the late Fox Point artist Mary Nohl from its origins on Beach Drive to a location in Sheboygan.
The announcement became a catalyst for discussions about the preservation of artist environments such as the Mary Nohl residence — also nicknamed the Witch's House — particularly when they are located in communities that must balance the impact of allowing public access — even on a very limited basis — against the value of preserving a local cultural treasure. These ideas will be discussed at a public forum on the preservation of art environments in the Lubar Auditorium of the Milwaukee Art Museum on Thursday, July 10. The forum is free and open to the public.
Event organizers hope this forum will not only expand public understanding of the particulars of the Nohl situation, but also introduce into the discourse a clearer sense of the recurring preservation issues that surround artist environments: negotiating with neighbors, defining public access, funding preservation, and weighing the impact of cultural loss on our sense of place.
The program will be moderated by Polly Morris of the Public Art Subcommittee of the Milwaukee Arts Board and will begin with an introduction to the artist's work by Debra Brehmer of the Portrait Society Gallery. Speakers include Ruth DeYoung Kohler, director of the John Michael Kohler Arts Center; Lisa Stone, curator of the Roger Brown Study Collection and adjunct associate professor in the Department of Art History, Theory, and Criticism, both at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago; preservation architect Matthew Jarosz; and local historian John Gurda.

More of a scramble than a climb, the clean-cut arete is the easiest way of getting to the Upper Wall. It is also worth doing in its own right, especially the upper section which has nice exposed moves and easier options - the timid may require a rope in places. Descent - Cross the summit ridge then descend the steep open slopes to the right.
A fun little scramble but hardly any climbing...
You can avoid the climbing, but you can also go for the most intersting parts and you will find a brilliant introduction climb on a nice top.

Oracle Can Pursue Claims Google Copied Java, Court SaysSusan Decker
Oracle Corp. won a U.S. appeals court bid to revive claims that Google Inc. copied its Java programming language to develop the Android operating system, in a case that split Silicon Valley.
The shortcuts created by Java to perform basic functions like connecting to the Internet are eligible for copyright protection, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington ruled today. The court reinstated a jury's 2012 finding that Google infringed the copyrights, and sent the case back to let Google argue it had fair use of the technology.
Oracle, the largest database-software maker, had sought more than $1 billion in damages, claiming Google used Java code without paying because it was in a rush to create Android, which has become the world's most popular smartphone platform. The case divided the industry between companies that write interface code and those that rely on it to develop software programs.
The decision "is a win for Oracle and the entire software industry that relies on copyright protection to fuel innovation and ensure that developers are rewarded for their breakthroughs," Oracle General Counsel Dorian Daley said in a statement.
Google said the ruling "sets a damaging precedent for computer science and software development." The company is considering its options, said Matt Kallman, a spokesman.
Copyright Protection
Software makers Microsoft Corp., NetApp Inc. and EMC Corp. filed arguments supporting Oracle. Rackspace Hosting Inc., a group of computer scientists and the Application Developers Alliance sided with Google, saying the specific tools in the case are little more than directions without creativity.
"A set of commands to instruct a computer to carry out desired operations may contain expression that is eligible for copyright protection," Circuit Judge Kathleen O'Malley wrote for the three-judge panel. "An original work -- even one that serves a function -- is entitled to copyright protection as long as the author had multiple ways to express the underlying idea."
The dispute centered on application programming interfaces, or APIs, code that lets programmers take advantage of functions already built into an operating system, such as securing data, drawing on-screen graphics or communicating with other devices. Developers using Java wouldn't have to create a new formula for those features, saving time and money while they focused on other aspects of writing the operating system.
Sun's Pledge
Sun Microsystems Inc., which created Java in the mid-1990s, allowed it to be freely available to developers, though it had a pricing structure for when the code was used for commercial purposes. Oracle agreed to buy Sun in 2009 for $7.4 billion and sued Google a year later.
Oracle sought as much as $6.1 billion in damages from Google before the estimate was thrown out by the judge ahead of trial. It could still seek more than $1 billion.
The Redwood City, California-based company claimed that, by using the Java code, Google preempted Oracle's ability to use Java for its own platform for mobile devices.
"We are extremely pleased that the Federal Circuit denied Google's attempt to drastically limit copyright protection for computer code," Oracle's Daley said in a statement. "We are confident that the district court will appropriately apply the fair use doctrine on remand, which is not intended to protect naked commercial exploitation of copyrighted material."
Creative Masterpiece
Google, based in Mountain View, California, said the code constitutes fundamental programming interfaces used by the entire industry for free. It accused Oracle of trying to backpedal on Sun pledges that Java would remain free.
The debate centered in part on where the line is drawn between software that's eligible for copyright protection and what is not.
"The Java platform is a masterpiece of creativity and the Federal Circuit understood that, without it, software gets no protection at all," said Oracle lawyer Josh Rosenkranz of Orrick Herrington in New York.
The application programming interfaces act similarly to a plug that lets one program interact with another and "there shouldn't be copyright protection for the shape of the plugs," said Jonathan Band, a Washington-based copyright lawyer who filed legal arguments on behalf of the Computer and Communications Industry Association, which sided with Google.
He said the ruling could mean increased prices, such as for programmers who develop applications for mobile devices.
"Things everyone assumed were not protected by copyright are now copyrightable," Band said. "Maybe the license fee goes up."
The Federal Circuit, which specializes in patent law, heard the case because Oracle also claimed patent infringement. Oracle isn't appealing the jury loss on that issue.
The case is Oracle America Inc. v. Google Inc., 13-1021, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (Washington). The lower court case is Oracle America Inc. v. Google Inc., 10cv3561, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (San Francisco).

The fourth-annual Festival of the Fly returns to the Skylight Theatre and Pub Feb. 21 for an evening of hanging out with fellow backcasters and watching some of the most cutting-edge fish porn ever created.
The event — a fundraiser for Friends of the White Salmon River — features 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. showings of GeoFish, a recently released feature-length film about a group of guys on the adventure fishing trip of a lifetime through South America.
"It's the kind of movie where you don't even want to get up to get a beer," said event organizer Chris Ellison. For stunning high-definition GeoFish previews, see www.vimeo.com/motivfishing.
Festival of the Fly was started in 2009 in memory of avid local fisherman Glen Haack, who passed away that same year.
Ellison said of Haack, "He was a legendary local fisherman who was willing to share his knowledge with anyone on the river. If you were a fisherman, you were his friend; and being his friend was a pleasure."
The $20 ticket fee gets each person 10 raffle tickets (additional tickets are $1 each) that will be drawn for prizes ranging from fishing gear, rods and reels, dinner and hotel packages to the top prize, two Sage One rods that retail for close to $1,000 each.
"We have some pretty sweet raffle prizes thanks to our local business friends," Ellison said. "We try to keep this an all-local event; all the stuff in the raffle can be purchased locally. And the funds we raise go to the Friends of the White Salmon, which does work on local rivers.
Businesses sponsors include Andrew's Pizza, Gorge Fly Shop, Full Sail Brewing, Kayak Shed, Food Services of America, Morgan Distributing, Lemma Wines, Sage & Redington, Tom Larimer Guide Service and Dick Halverson.
Formed in 1976, FWSR is an all-volunteer advocacy group with the mission to protect the White Salmon River and its watershed in order to restore and preserve the river and riparian habitats.

Parkdale third graders sing "12 Disaster Days of Christmas"
Welcome to your sing-able Christmas gift list. What follows is an emergency rendition of "12 Days of Christmas" – for outfitting your home or car in case of snow storm, earthquake, flood or other emergency. Read it as a simple list, or sing it to the tune of "12 Days" – you know, as in " … and a partridge in a pear tree…" Not to make light of it, but the song is a familiar framework for a set of gift ideas that you could consider gathering together, even if the recipient already owns items such as a bunch of coats, tire chains and flashlights. Stores throughout the Gorge are stocked up on all these items. Buying all 12 days might be prohibitive, but here are three ideas for checking any of the dozen off your list (notations follow, 1-12.) The gift items needed to stay warm, dry and safe are also coded to suggest items in your abode (A) in your car (C) or both (B). 12 Gallons of Water (A) 11 Family meals (B) 10 Cans of propane (A) 9 Hygiene bags (B) 8 Packs of batteries (A) 7 Spare coats (B) 6 Bright red flares (C) 5 Cozy blankets (B) 4 Tire chains (C) 3 Flashlights (B) 2 cell phone chargers (B) 1 And a crush-proof first aid kit (B) Price ranges? Here's a few quotes for days Three, Two, Four and Nine: n A family gift of flashlights (three will run $15-30, Hood River Supply, Tum-A-Lum) n Cell phone chargers (two will run $30-60) n Tire chains (basic set, $30, Les Schwab, returnable if unused for the winter) n Family meals ($100 or so should cover the basics for three or four reasonably well-fed days) n The home kit should be kept in a handy place near an exit, and remember that water needs to be replenished every few months. If you have a solid first aid kit already, switch out the gift idea with "and-a-sto-o-u-t- tub-for it-all …" Otherwise, it's a case of assembling your home or car kits and making sure all members of the family know what the resources are and how to use them (ie flares and propane). Emergency situations are at worst life-threatening, at best deeply uncomfortable if you and your family are left without power for an extended period, or traveling and find yourself in a situation where you need to wait out a storm, lengthy traffic delay, or other crisis. Notes on the 12 gift ideas: 12 – Gallons of water: that's one per person in a four-member family to last for three days, the recommended minimum to be prepared for utility outages. 11 – Easy-open packaged goods, energy bars, dried food and nuts are good things to include for nutrition. Think of what your family of four needs for three days to stay fortified and hydrated (see number 12). Can-opener also recommended 10 – If you have a propane camping stove, keep extra fuel handy. 9 – Hygiene bags: put packaged moistened towelettes, toilet paper, and plastic ties in large garbage bags (for personal sanitation) Resource list courtesy of Hood River County Emergency Management, Barbara Ayers, manager/ 541-386-1213. The county also reminds residents to Get a Kit, Make A Plan to connect your family if separated, and Stay Informed. See www.co.hood-river.or.us to opt-in for citizen alerts. Enlarge

Oh sweet, melancholy afternoon
The Sun will be leaving us soon
As sad shapes wiggle across the wall
The curtains on my eyes will fall
I go inside my dizzy mind
Knowing what I leave behind
I'd love to take you with me
But I know you have to leave
So long as you leave here happy, and content
Like a satisfied lover, all your energy spent
So run along now friend
Run along

Talk:Italian Peninsula
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
Miscellaneous discussions[edit]
User from 220.127.116.11, please understand that you sometimes just can't stuff everything into nice little regional boxes and give them nice little nonsensical titles. It just doesn't make sense to state that islands are part of a peninsula. --Shallot 23:33, 18 May 2004 (UTC)
Shouln't this be titled like the other "X Peninsula", see Category:Peninsulas --Tobias Conradi (Talk) 16:56, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
What happened to having maps in the encyclopedia? Certainly enough other graphics on these pages.
Missing something[edit]
Are not the canton of Ticino (Switzerland) and the are of Nice (France) part of the Italian peninsula (geographically talking!) ??
- Geographically yes, and Monaco-Montecarlo also. Moreover, in the past these regions were part of Italy (Ticino was in Milan Duchy, and Nice, with Savoy, was in Sardinia and Piedmont Kingdom), while Monaco was an Italian city-State (the actual royal family, the Grimaldi, has Genoese origin). Is also part of Italian geographical region Istrian peninsula, now divided by Slovenia and Croatia.
What is the northern boundary of the 'peninsula'?[edit]
At the moment we say that the peninsula is bounded to the north by the Alps. No doubt that boundary is what Metternich had in mind when notoriously defining Italy as a geographical expression. But according to the Wikipedia definition of a peninsula, and looking at the satellite picture, I would be tempted to place the boundary of the Italian Peninsula (as opposed to mainland Italy) a good deal further south. The Alps and the greater part of the Pianura padana (defined as the drainage basin of the Po, which indeed includes Ticino) would be excluded. Any thoughts? (I ought to add that I was hopeless at geography at school.) Ian Spackman 20:42, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- Technically, in the definition of "peninsula" would not be comprise the Alps and the Pianura Padana, because they constitutes the "continental" part of Italy; but when we talk about "Italian peninula" we generally mean the Italian geographical region, so including northern Italy. If we would draw an imaginary border line between the peninsula and the continental sector we may link the cities of Genoa and Venice; this would still include in the concept of peninsula also the southern sector of Pianura Padana, that for natural, geographical, climate, cultural and historical reason has to be comprise as integrating part of Pianura Padana, rather than the peninsula. > Anyway is it since the Romans that the geographical concept of Italy (and of Stivale) appoints "the whole territory south of the Alps", and the Pianura Padana is more linked to the rest of the Country than Europe for the Alps. So it is for these reasons that the concept of Italian peninsula could not be separate from the continental sector.
Hi this site... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 05:29, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- The statement that "it is since the Romans that the geographical concept of Italy (and of Stivale) appoints the whole territory south of the Alps" is historically wrong: the Romans called "Italia" only the central/southern part and "Gallia Cisalpina" the Po Valley. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 17:19, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
- Wrong. Only in early times Romans called Italy the peninsula. In the Regions of Italy of Augustus Liguria was the IX region, Aemilia the VIII region, Transpadana the XI region and Venetia and Histria the X region.
- Mr. Bossi, leader of Lega, would be happy to know to have a number of converts abroad! --Deguef (talk) 13:28, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
Population of peninsular Italy[edit]
In the table in the article the population is listed with a number of inhabitants less than half of Italy's total population, which seems to be far too low a number. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bearsca (talk • contribs) 23:57, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Autumn Decoupage Sign

Update an outdoor autumn sign in your own style with this decoupage craft project from Amy Anderson. She uses autumn scrapbook paper and sticker embellishments for this easy autumn decorating idea. You can use this idea for any seasonal outdoor sign.
- Leaf Sign, $1
- Acrylic paint colors – 2 coordinating, $2 or on hand
- Scrapbook paper – 1 sheet, on hand
- Autumn stickers and embellishments, on hand
- Outdoor Mod Podge, on hand
- Craft glue, on hand
- Paint brush, on hand
- Pencil or pen, on hand
- Tool set or small pliers, on hand
- Sandpaper, on hand
Start out with an unfinished sign. I wanted you to see the entire sign before transformation.
Remove the wires with pliers or whatever tool works best for you.
Sand the pieces with a medium grit sandpaper. You don't have to sand too hard or too long – just enough to rough up the surface and remove a little bit of the coating. This will help your decoupage stick better. Wipe the sanding dust off when you are done.
Flip the leaf over face down and trace on the BACK of the paper you are going to use. Trust me – if you do this the shape will come out right (do you think I've learned from trial and error?). I decided to simply paint the top of the sign, but if you would like the decoupage the top, repeat the process. Cut the leaf shape out and set aside.
And the painting begins! I covered both sides of the leaf with several coats of paint – don't forget to paint the sides thoroughly. You don't really have to paint the side that you are gluing the paper to, but I did it because the leaf isn't that big. Trust me – if it were a larger project – it wouldn't have happened. Oh, one more thing. At this same time I was painting the top of the sign orange. I let the leaf dry, painted the sign top, and kept going back and forth until both were fully covered with paint. Allow both pieces to dry completely.
Time to Mod Podge! This is my favorite part. Simply coat the leaf shape with a medium layer of Mod Podge. Make sure to get all of the edges completely. Lay the paper down and smooth it with your fingers. Smooth, smooth, smooth! Wipe any excess Podge that spills out from under the paper away with a paint brush. Set aside for 15 – 20 minutes to dry. Then coat the top of your sign with Mod Podge (or glue down paper if you choose). Let the top of the sign dry too.
Now it's time to paint the entire project with Mod Podge. Start with the leaf shape, and coat thoroughly. Give both the leaf shape and the top of the sign several coats of Mod Podge. Allow both pieces to dry for 15 – 20 minutes.
At this time you'll start assembly. Put the wires back in, attaching the leaf shape and then loop to hang the sign. You'll obviously want to add embellishments! My letters were adhesive, but sometimes stickers peel off of Mod Podge, so I always glue them down just to be sure. Glue your letter embellishments and place like I did above. I also added a big one in the center of the leaf – to "get a little nutty."
My sign still needed something, so I added polka dots. They always work! I used the turquoise paint I had painted the leaf with and the end of my paint brush. Just keep dipping and putting down dots. Let them dry.
To finish, I added rhinestones to the leaf where some of the polka dots were. It gave me the extra special bling I was looking for. When you are done assembling, let the project dry for at least 24 hours before hanging.
Your sign is complete-o. This is perfect for a housewarming gift or for your own funky front door. Bring on the signs and start Podging. If you need any tips, swing by and visit me. Decoupage doesn't take long to master. I promise!

Skip to comments.Vote fraud alert: One out of five registered Ohio voters is bogus
Posted on 09/17/2012 8:30:40 AM PDT by jazusamo
Vote fraud is no big deal, right? It hardly ever happens. Its so rare that its not even worth discussing. Anyone who claims to take the integrity of our ballots seriously is cynically exploiting phantom fears for the purpose of suppressing the Democrat-loving minority vote.
To keep that silly narrative alive, its important not to read the Sunday edition of the Columbus Dispatch, in which readers were informed that more than one out of every five registered Ohio voters is probably ineligible to vote.
Furthermore, in two counties, the number of registered voters actually exceeds the voting age population: Northwestern Ohios Wood County shows 109 registered voters for every 100 eligible, while in Lawrence County along the Ohio River its a mere 104 registered per 100 eligible.
31 more counties report over 90 percent voter registration, which is a good 20 percent higher than the national average. The Buckeye State sure is civic-minded! Well, except that 1.6 million of the 7.8 million registered voters in the state havent voted in at least four years. So I guess they were civic minded, once upon a time. Never fear Im sure plenty of those inactive voters will reactivate themselves just in time for Barack Obamas re-election.
You might think these astonishing statistics indicate a crisis-level voter registration problem requiring immediate attention, particularly since this is 2012, not 1912, and modern technology gives us extremely potent tools for accurately managing massive amounts of data. But Attorney General Eric Holder disagrees. Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted sent Holder a letter back in February, warning that common sense says that the odds of voter fraud increase the longer these ineligible voters are allowed to populate our rolls
I simply cannot accept that. Husted said existing federal regulations limit Ohios ability to remove ineligible...

The corrupt media supports fraudulent voter registrations.
Even if the fake names never cast a ballot, it gives the media cover when they over sample Democrats as "registered voters" when they issue a poll on the elections.
Its just the "Chicago Way".
We can only pray for justice in the day of judgment for Eric Holder, who learned at Janet Reno's knee as she burned alive mothers and their children in Waco and never had to answer for that obvious atrocity that as long as a Democrat President appoints you Attorney General, you can get away with murder.
Anyone who could kidnap little Elian Gonzalez and send him back to Castro, after his mother died trying to get him to freedom in the U.S., has no concept of morality.
Could there be 9.7 fake votes? I'd sure like the American people better if there was.
Year: 2008
Number of Votes
69,297,997 (52.9%) Obama
59,597,520 (45.5%) McCain
You're right on both counts, they were sickening.
Now I know why the Democrats appear to have been encouraging Blacks to migrate to the cities. This eventually gives the Blacks the voting majority which enables them to control the governments of the cities. When the Blacks control city hall they can activate their massive voter frauds and you cannot touch them or you will be villified as a racist. You have to hand it to the Democrats they certainly know how to play political chess.
Until voter picture ID is the rule of law for all Federal Elections the future of America is always in question. The communists Democrats will see to it that it remains the same as now, corrupt as hell.
4 dead in O-hi-o (and one a real voter).
Ohio was one of the states targeted by George Soros and his Secretaries of State project. I'm sure the voting rolls were over-over stuffed for as long as the donks held onto it.
" Holder and his Department of Injustice is little more than a criminal enterprise. "
Holder and his Department of Injustice is a criminal enterprise.
Fixed it.
Mornin Jaz : )
The graveyards will be busy this fall.
Mornin sjb, you're so right. :-)
it's exactly that type of information management that government is terrible at. Although, I'm sure in this case it could be "by design". The most dems scream that there's no voter fraud (how do you prove a negative though?), the more I'm inclined to believe that it's bigger than I imagined.
"Ohio was one of the states targeted by George Soros and his Secretaries of State project. Im sure the voting rolls were over-over stuffed for as long as the donks held onto it."
Absolutely correct. Also in Minneeesooota - remember Al Franken? Hey..... where IS he, BTW? Haven't heard from him in a long time.
This explains the special sauce of Democrt pollsters. We ignore voter fraud at our own cost. Dems have a huge advantage in dead voters and illegals.
Nothing to see here, move along.............
The Dems move them wherever they want I believe as a form of gerrymandering, only they are moving the people into the targeted districts. The Dems have also been in charge of the immigration bureacracy for many decades. They changed the immigration laws in 1965. Today European immigrants are discriminated against as the Dems let in everybody from the third world. As soon as the third world immigrants come into America, the Democrat propaganda machine starts telling them that Repuublicans are racist against them. I watched Virginia Senator Moran addressing a group of Muslim immigrants, guess what he was telling them, that the Republicans were prejudiced against Muslims. I thought, wow, the Dems bring in the groups that they want and then they turn them against the Republicans.
That was in the old days, today they have all of the death records on record.
Holy Moly...
That's like 20%...WOW!
That's why they're so freaked about PA's voter ID law. They won't be able to vote in place of the dead or in place of all the Dems who have ID but never bother to vote.
I am now listening to Michael Savage talking about the counting of the November votes which will go to a Spanish company which is owned by George Soros, if you can believe that! What is going on here.
For more than two months I've been asking anyone who knows to post a list of the sattes/districts which have opted for this quisling count. As yet no one has posted anything.

So many "ports" that we've seen for the Wii U since launch have been taken from previous gen systems, resulting in the idea that the Wii U isn't a next-gen system because the quality of them seem to either be on par or inferior to the last-gen versions. We could go on about lazy developers and such to make a point on why Wii U is more powerful, but instead, let's have a look at a game port that isn't based on last-gen systems. Here we have NFS:Most Wanted, another port, except from the PC instead of the 360, demonstrating that the Wii U does have the capacity of next-gen capabilities. As one of the YT comments says, "take note multiplat developers"
As a dev of blargSNES, just stop with the claims that o3DS can emulate SNES games accurately @ 60fps. It cannot.

A Romanian immigrant named Ion Purice, married to an Italian woman and with a young child, works as a long-distance trucker for a company in Rovigo, Italy. A day or two ago, as he was taking a load of foodstuffs (I think) to Holland, he saw a terrible road accident: just ahead of him, a Moroccan father and little daughter were in a car that smashed against the guard-rail. The little child, clearly brutally injured, was thrown in the middle of the motorway. Ion Purice placed the truck across the roadway to shelter the child (and the Red Cross volunteers who luckily just happened to be passing and stopped to help) from oncoming traffic, and kept signalling to the coming cars till help came. Once the little girl was placed on an ambulance, he moved off - he still had work to do, you know? At his destination he apologized for the hour's delay - I ran into an accident on the motorway. But meanwhile all of Italy had seen him on the news, and when he returned to his base, he found - his son, his wife, all his colleagues, some Trade Union representatives, several journalists, and the mayor of the town, to give him a hero's welcome. His reaction? "I just did what anyone would have done, the Red Cross boys were more heroes than me." No wonder that his boss hired him, years before, in spite of the bad reputation that Romanians have in Italy, because he was "una persona seria", an untranslatable Italian compliment that roughly says "a man who does his job, does it well, and thinks nothing of it".

Mondelez International wanted to make the point that its Trident chewing gum can keep you focused on the important things in life. One thing that distracts people from doing so is technology, so the brand tapped Party New York to create something that will help keep folks' social media and tech addiction in check: a clothing collection that shields radio frequencies. The result? When devices are stashed into shirt, pants and accessory pockets, their ringing and pinging are disabled so that wearers can focus on real life around them. The agency created the line and exhibited the pieces at a show in Toronto. There's also an accompanying website, which features a video of the fashions and includes a "social media addict" evaluator, so you can determine if you're living too much of your life online.

The UCSF Immunology Training Program encompasses 43 laboratories engaged in molecular and cellular immunology and actively training graduate and postdoctoral scientists. Areas of active research include lymphocyte cell surface receptor structure, signaling meclianism, and immune system function, histocompatability antigen expression and intracellular trafficking, roles of receptors and antigen specificity in lymphocyte development, lymphocyte and leukocyte cell adhesion molecule structure and function, immunoglobulin gene hypermutation and class-switch recombination, cytokine expression, mechanisms of autoimmunity, allergy, and defense against infectious agents, and various aspects of AIDS including pathogenesis, HIV interaction with lymphocytes, and mechanisms of HIV viral gene expression and genome packaging. Over the past 24 years, a vital graduate training program leading to the Ph.D. has been developed by the immunology program faculty and has been supported by this training grant for the past 20 years. This program is designed to provide a solid background in genetics, cell biology, molecular biology, and mammalian tissue and organ biology as well as thorough training in molecular and cellular immunology. The interdisciplinary nature of this training is enhanced by the affiliation of the Immunology Program with the UCSF Biomedical Sciences Program (BMS), an interdisciplinary program that also includes the study of infectious agents and inflammatory processes as well as other aspects of mammalian tissue/organ development, function, and disease. In addition to formal coursework and thesis research, the Immunology Program includes an active weekly seminar series of outside immunology speakers, both Immunology and BMS student-faculty journal clubs, an annual Immunology Program conference (held jointly with UC Berkeley immunologists), and seminar courses on advanced immunological topics. These activities provide an excellent training environment for postdoctoral fellows as well as for graduate students. Postdoctoral training is additionally enhanced by a postdoc research-in-progress seminar series and a new postdoctoral mentoring program.
Our immune systems protect us against infections, but also contribute to allergies and asthma and to a wide variety of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases that collectively affect over 2% of the population. Ongoing research in this field is aimed at developing new and better therapies to treat allergies and inflammatory diseases, to boost the immune attack on cancers, and to vaccinate against the causes of AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and viral hepatitis.
