While promoting his film "Edge of Tomorrow," Tom Cruise stopped by the set of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Wednesday (June 4).
After his interview, the "Top Gun" star debuted a game called "Face Breakers" with Fallon. The pair threw footballs at a glass panel featuring their faces and it ended when all the opponent's mugs were shattered.
There's no denying he's got some talent, and Tom Cruise stopped by "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Tuesday (June 3) to prove that he also has a few splendid ideas.
While promoting his new flick "Edge of Tomorrow," which he stars in alongside Emily Blunt, the "Top Gun" star claims that he started the whole "world premiere" idea.
Following their appearance in London earlier today (May 28), Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt attended the Paris premiere of "Edge of Tomorrow" this afternoon.
And while they both looked fabulous at the previous event, both the "Minority Report" hunk and the "Adjustment Bureau" babe had new ensembles for their French fans.
He's always up for a challenge, and Tom Cruise showed up at the UK premiere of "Edge of Tomorrow" at the BFI IMAX in London, England today (May 28).
Joined by his beautiful costar Emily Blunt, who wore a darling multicolored dress, the handsome "Top Gun" stud was dapper in a dark suit as he showed some love to his English fans.
Stopping by " Jimmy Kimmel Live" to promote her new film, Emily Blunt dished on working with co-star Tom Cruise, and a hilarious situation she got him in to.
The "Edge of Tomorrow" babe spoke about the pressure to do her own stunts in the action film, being as Cruise is famous for doing all of his.
With a hot summer ahead, Warner Bros and Village Roadshow are offering up an exciting thrill ride starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt.
In the newly-released trailer, "Edge of Tomorrow" looks to be a fast-paced sci-fi flick with plenty of additional star power thanks to Bill Paxton, Jeremy Piven, Ciaran Hinds, and Charlotte Riley.
Suing just about everyone involved, a lawsuit claiming the "Mission Impossible - Ghost Protocol" script was stolen includes Tom Cruise as one of the defendants.
Timothy Patrick McLanahan is suing the film's star, Brad Grey, Paramount Pictures, Skydance Pictures, and Cruise/Wagner Productions, among others, for copyright infringement.
Finally putting an end to his legal battle, Tom Cruise dropped his $50 million lawsuit against Life & Style's publisher, claiming that he abandoned his daughter, Suri Cruise.
The legal battle was brought to its conclusion in a California federal court on Friday (December 20), and the story ran after the end of Tom and Katy Holmes' five-year marriage in June 2012.

2013 USILA Scholar All-America list (PDF)
PHILADELPHIA - The United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) has announced its 2013 Scholar All-America recipients for 2013, and two University of Pennsylvania seniors have made the list.
Defenseman Anthony Santomo and attackman Tim Schwalje are the seventh and eighth Quaker players to earn USILA Scholar All-America, and the first since Brett Hughes in 2011. This marks the first time Penn has had two players earn the honor in the same season. The USILA has run a Scholar All-America program yearly since 1989.
In addition, both players were invited to play in the USILA Division I/II North/South All-Star Game. The annual event, featuring the top seniors in college lacrosse, will take place Friday, May 24 at 5:30 p.m. at Edith Robb Dixon Field on the campus of Cabrini College inRadnor, Pa. The All-Star Game is the traditional kickoff to NCAA Championship Weekend, which takes place this year in Philadelphia.
Santomo was Penn's shutdown defender this year, often matching up with the opponent's top offensive threat. As a team, the Quakers finished the 2013 season leading the nation in goals-against average (7.838).Santomo was recently a unanimous selection as first-team All-Ivy by the Ancient Eight coaches.He led Penn with 27 caused turnovers, and finished the year ranked 10th nationally averaging 2.08 CTs per game. Santomo also had 23 ground balls. The senior also scored his first collegiate goals this season, against Duke and Brown.
Schwalje was Penn's top offensive player for the second year in a row, leading the Quakers in assists (26) and points (41). He recorded hat tricks against Duke and Denver, and finished with a seven-point game (3g, 4a vs. Duke); a five-point game (3g, 2a at Denver); and four four-point games. Schwalje finished the 2013 season ranked 17th nationally in assists per game (2.00) and 46th in points per game (3.15), and he ended his career on a 25-game point-scoring streak.

Sonoco's impact on SC economy tops $1 billion
By Peggy Binette, email@example.com, 803-777-7704
Global packaging giant Sonoco annually contributes more than $1 billion to South Carolina's economy, creating nearly 9,300 jobs and generating more than $473 million in income for South Carolinians, according to a study released Tuesday (March 26) by the Division of Research at the Darla Moore School of Business.
The study reveals that the 114-year-old Hartsville-based company is a major contributor to a rebirth of manufacturing in South Carolina that has taken place since 2009. Sonoco, which employs more than 1,700 employees statewide, supports an extensive supply chain network throughout the state.
"Sonoco's impact is wide-ranging and extends to every county in South Carolina," said Moore School economist Joseph Von Nessen, who conducted the study.
The areas of South Carolina benefitting the most from Sonoco's economic activities are the Upstate ($403 million), Pee Dee ($402 million) and Midlands ($195 million) regions. In addition, Sonoco's $1 billion annual economic impact contributes nearly $35 million to state tax revenue each year.
Sonoco is also a major economic driver of Hartsville.
"Sonoco, in many respects, is the heartbeat of Hartsville," Von Nessen said. "Their impact is especially strong in the Florence-Darlington metropolitan area, where they comprise about 5 percent of total economic activity. This means that any change in Sonoco's business activities will have a sizeable influence on the economic health of this region of South Carolina."
Yet the presence of Sonoco's corporate headquarters in South Carolina provides additional benefits to the state that go beyond that of most other manufacturing firms.
"Corporate headquarters attract and retain professionals with high levels of intellectual talent, which is one of the main driving forces of innovation and the commercialization of new ideas," Von Nessen said. "These are crucial elements for ongoing economic growth and development. These professional positions also fuel an increased demand for worker training and higher education."
Further, the presence of the corporate headquarters in South Carolina leads to higher wages for workers, particularly in the Pee Dee region. Von Nessen said the average wage of jobs created due to Sonoco's activities is $1,229 per week, an amount that is more than $500 higher than that of the average South Carolina worker.
Sonoco Chairman and CEO Harris DeLoach said the study underscores the economic value that a global company headquartered in South Carolina can have on the state.
"Sonoco is South Carolina's largest company, based on sales, and we have the largest global impact with operations in 34 countries selling products in more than 85 nations. This study proves that having a global corporation headquartered in the state provides tremendous economic impact. But equally important is the intangible value that I believe Sonoco brings to South Carolina's reputation for business innovation and success," DeLoach said. "We're proud to call South Carolina our home."
The Moore School study was funded by Sonoco. The complete report is available online.
About the Darla Moore School of Business
The Darla Moore School of Business is among the highest-ranked business schools in the world for international business education and research. Founded in 1919, the school has a history of innovative educational leadership, blending academic preparation with real-world experience through internships, consulting projects, study-abroad programs and entrepreneurial opportunities. The Moore School offers undergraduate, master's and doctoral degrees, as well as distinctive executive education programs. In 1998, the school was named for South Carolina native and New York financier Darla Moore, making the University of South Carolina the first major university to name its business school after a woman.
About Sonoco
Founded in 1899, Sonoco is a global provider of a variety of consumer packaging, industrial products, protective packaging and packaging supply chain services. With annualized net sales of approximately $4.8 billion, the company has more than 19,900 employees working in 347 operations in 34 countries, serving many of the world's best-known brands in some 85 nations. Sonoco is a proud member of the 2012/2013 Dow Jones Sustainability World Index. For more information on the company, visit our website sonoco.com.
Key Findings
- Sonoco's total economic impact on South Carolina is approximately $1 billion, which includes the creation of nearly 9,300 jobs and the generation of more than $473 million in income for South Carolinians that would not exist otherwise.
- The employment "multiplier effect" – the ratio of total employment supported throughout the state to direct employment created by a company's or factory's expenditures – is 1.9. This means that for every 10 jobs created by Sonoco, an additional nine jobs are created elsewhere in South Carolina's economy. The labor income multiplier of 2.3 implies that for every dollar generated directly in labor income through Sonoco, an additional $1.30 in labor income is generated elsewhere in South Carolina.
- The average weekly earnings from jobs generated (directly or indirectly) by Sonoco is $980 per week. This is 35 percent above the overall state average of $724 per week and about 7 percent higher than the S.C. manufacturing industry average of $913 per week.
- While Sonoco's impact is felt statewide, the company is the primary economic driver in Florence and Darlington, S.C., supporting more than 5 percent of the region's economic activity.
- Sonoco's $1 billion annual economic impact is estimated to generate an annual contribution of nearly $35 million to state tax revenue.

Google Wants Sites to Use Encryption, Except When It Doesn't
Google wants websites to use encryption, to protect themselves and users from hackers. Unless they are e-commerce sites, in which case Google doesn't want them to use encryption too widely.
The dissonance arises from the requirements of Google's "Trusted Stores" program, an effort by the search giant to show users where they can "shop online with confidence."
Here's the rub: According to emails Google sent one merchant, the Trusted Stores program doesn't play nice with encryption.
Google's explanation could have come straight from Catch-22. "The Trusted Stores badge is designed to be suppressed and not show up on secure pages," Google wrote to Christopher Heitman, co-owner of Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies in New Berlin, Wisc.
That means, Google continued, "There will not be a badge that shows up on every page of the site. However, per the program guidelines, it is required that the badge must be displayed on all pages of your site."
Not surprisingly, the explanation left Heitman scratching his head. "I would think that protecting their user's privacy by using encryption would be a valuable part of providing the best user experience," he says.
Google gave Web encryption a big boost earlier this month when it said encrypted sites would gain points in its search rankings. Encryption can defend against certain types of cyberattacks.
The Trusted Stores program does require that checkout pages be encrypted, to protect personal information such as home addresses and credit-card numbers.
But Google told Heitman that for "non-sensitive" pages such as a site's home page or product listings, the Trusted Stores program "is not compatible" with the common encryption protocol that Google said it would favor in its search rankings.
A Google spokesman said "as a priority, we're working on a solution to display the badge for stores who are moving their entire sites" to be encrypted.
Encrypting only some pages of a website can leave the site open to cyberattacks like "sidejacking," where a hacker intercepts a Web user going to an unencrypted page, feeds the user a forged page that looks authentic, and baits them into providing personal information.
Heitman says his site, pegasusautoracing.com, has been encrypting all of its pages since 2011. In June 2012, he applied for the "Trusted Stores" badge. He cited Pegasus's fast shipment times and strong customer ratings on the Google Wallet payment service.
But Google wouldn't give Pegasus the badge. In a November 2012 e-mail, the Trusted Stores team cited a "technical conflict" because the entire Pegasus site is encrypted, and said Google was "working on a workaround."
Heitman resumed his quest this month, and was again denied because he uses encryption too widely. The Trusted Stores team told Heitman it is still trying to develop a solution.
After Heitman had trouble with Google Trusted Stores, he added a "Shopping Guarantee" badge provided by Symantec's Norton security service. He says he had no trouble with the Norton badge.
"The most ironic thing about this is that the Google division that is applying this penalty is the one that claims to protect the users of ecommerce websites," Heitman says.

Before I had even heard of ACIM, I was reading about Edgar Cayce, Alternative Healing, and other Metaphysical material.
So I was ready for something that would become the pinnacle of my searching efforts.
Although I was raised strict German Catholic, I rejected those teachings in favor of something that made more sense to me. This began a quest for a 'better way' in the mid to early 80's.
In 1988 in appreciation for the work that I did for one of my clients, an invitation was given me to join one of them in their home for a home cooked evening meal.
After the meal, my client removed the plate from my table dropped a book in it's place and stated flatly:
"You HAVE to read this!".
Curious, I opened the book and read the following introduction:
This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you can elect what you want to take at a given time. The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.
This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:
Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.
Herein lies the peace of God.
Intrigued by the introduction, I flipped through the onion skin pages randomly and began reading whatever my eyes fell upon.
Page after page, I recognized Truth as I read. I realized that this book truly WAS something I had to read.
This began a lifelong study of 'A Course in Miracles' (ACIM for short) that continues today.
After 20 years of study, I now teach ACIM weekly on ACIM Gather during the "Awakenings" time period from my "Electric LarryLand" recording studio in Austin Texas.
In addition, at various seminars and conferences (including the ones that I do with David) I am asked to both teach and play some of my original music. Several events where I teach are listed here.
More History:
In 2004, I heard David Wilcock as a featured guest on the nationally syndicated radio talk show "Coast to Coast AM". After the show, I called David and booked a reading with him.
During the conversation, I told David of my musical career, including the names of some of the artists I had worked with – awards received, and shared some of my spiritual interests.
Interested, David suggested we do a project together.
A short time later, David and I collaborated on our first project "The Science of Peace". After waiting over two years for a publisher to pick up the material and distribute it, David and I chose to self published the work and release it on his website.
The success was immediate and long lasting as it is still one of his top selling products.
In 2006 while doing research on related spiritual matters, I found Regina Dawn Akers website and read what appeared to be very similar writings to what is presented in ACIM. After reading several pages, I recognized the writings as the same voice that authored ACIM.
After the meal, one of the clients removed the plate from my table dropped a book in it's place and stated flatly "You HAVE to read this!"!
As with David Wilcock the year before, I 'cold called' Regina and asked her who she was and where the information come from.
Regina patiently explained who 'The Voice' was and suggested I download PalTalk and visit the ACIM Gather room.
Wasting no time, I downloaded the software, went into the chat room and listened. I was in the room no more than five minutes when the moderator, David Fishman, asked I if I would like to teach ACIM there.
Initially resisting the call, I eventually recognized that 'to teach is to learn' and decided to 'give in' to the teaching idea.
During the summer of 2008, I received a prompt to invite David to do another project together. As coincidence would have it (if you actually believe in them), when I called him, David was thinking the exact same thing and the two of us picked dates and times for when we would start to work on our next project.
He and I spent eight months collaboration on the new project – a spiritually based two and a half hour musical entitled "Wanderer Awakening".
Since it's release in April of 2009, thousands of people have downloaded this enlightening masterpiece and enjoyed the hero's journey that tells the story of a "Wanderer" who incarnates into physical form and completes it's life cycle by returning to Spirit.
Comprised of fifty songs including twenty-five narrations with underscoring, "Wanderer Awakening" is a synthesis of some of the teachings presented in "A Course in Miracles" and David's core spiritual belief system "The Law of One".
At one of the conferences where David and I performed selections from "Wanderer Awakening", it was suggested that I teach ACIM for an hour as a bonus for the attending participants.
I agreed and the response has been positive and rewarding and is now a regular part of the conferences that David and I do together.
David has asked me to start writing and teaching ACIM on his Divine Cosmos website. This area of his site is the answer to his request.

Precious robots, shaky delivery of goods
By Serendipity
from Austin, TX
I wanted so much to love these little robot salt and pepper shakers. They are really darling and the kids would love them, but they don't exactly pass the salt and pepper. They might make it from plate to plate, but no farther. I don't think the wind up spring will last long, but since HS stands behind their products 100%, you might like to try them. (I sent mine back.)
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Why It's Different
On paper, Colorado College is a classic liberal arts school with a quirky academic schedule. Feel the difference the moment you arrive. Our campus practically hums with energy... and it comes from the students.
The Students
CC students are a rare breed. We pride ourselves on our brains and our creativity. As a community, we share a raw academic fervor and an insatiable thirst for expression, conversation, and mental stimulation.
Long-story-short: We work hard, we play hard, and we take one class at a time.
The Possibilities
The distinct cadence of the Block Plan offers students a combination of challenge and opportunity, encouraging hands-on fieldwork, autonomous research, and in-class discussion. We love to learn, we never cram for five finals at once, and professors not only know our names, but also invite us home for dinner.
At CC, the possibilities are defined by your capacity for imagination. Choreograph and perform an original dance piece through CC's student-run Dance Workshop. Apply for a Venture Grant and spend a block studying biology in the Galapagos. Throw on your field zoologist hat and track wildlife through Rocky Mountain National Park.
We'd be lying if we said that Colorado College is for everyone. It isn't. But if you can rock it, you'll struggle to picture yourself anywhere else.

Altuzarra Fall 2012
"It was really about mixing it," declared Joseph Altuzarra backstage at his commanding show. Fashion fusion chez Altuzarra meant throwing together elements as disparate as chic forties Parisiennes (think Robert Bresson's 1945 Les dames du Bois de Boulogne), the dandy swagger of the well-traveled Italian comic-strip hero Corto Maltese (think nineteenth-century naval coats and matelot pants), ethnic touches like the wonky geometry of Moroccan Berber carpets (dozens of which, laid in joyous patchworks, decorated his atmospheric show space), and Indian hippie-market coin embroidery.
Altuzarra's increasing assurance (and, of course, his win in the 2011 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund) means that he can actually meld these varied inspirations into a coherent (and beautifully made) whole—even if there were occasional echoes of Nicolas Ghesquière's own authoritative foray into the world of urban chic–meets–global traveler.
Altuzarra has an innate sense of elegance all his own, however, one that corralled the eclectic images on his inspiration board into some very stylish looks. The show opened, for instance, with a duffle coat in curly black Mongolian lamb, its sleeves formed from embroidery that replicated Berber wedding blankets with their alternate fronded and flat woven stripes, and dangling silver-disc sequins. Like many of the looks, it was finished with a pair of chic, high patent-leather boots.
Those black-on-white lozenge rug motifs were echoed in sweaters (like quirky Fair Isles) and printed onto satin that was draped into well-behaved cocktail frocks, or a pencil skirt worn with an emerald velvet dandy jacket, or, even, printed onto a rounded coat that melded the parka with a dash of (Cristóbal) Balenciaga.
The precision of equestrienne-friendly tailoring (and the hint of a jodhpur curve to a pant) was amplified by the horsehead motif in a brace of sweater knits. Ivory ecclesiastical collars added a flourish to prim little black cocktail dresses, and shapely forties jackets in stiff wool were worn with skirts that bristled at the knee with thick rug-knot fringing. But Altuzarra's ethnic touches could be just that—a V-shape of Indian bobble braid on a schoolboy sweater, for instance, or the swinging tassels on those dashing boots.
But the finale dresses were unashamedly souk-spectacular; thick with the fringes made of silver sequins—like those on the rugs that Altuzarra researched on a recent trip to Marrakech—that jangled tunefully on the runway.

Acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (cont.)
Our Leukemia Main Article provides a comprehensive look at the who, what, when and how of Leukemia
The treatment of the subtype of AML called acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) differs from that for other forms of AML. (APL is M3 in the FAB system.) Most APL patients are now treated first with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) which induces a complete response in 70% of cases and extends survival. APL patients are then given a course of consolidation therapy, which is likely to include cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) and idarubicin.
Bone marrow transplantation is used to replace the bone marrow with healthy bone marrow. First, all of the bone marrow in the body is destroyed with high doses of chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy. Healthy marrow is then taken from another person (a donor) whose tissue is the same as or almost the same as the patient's. The donor may be a twin (the best match), a brother or sister, or a person who is otherwise related or not related. The healthy marrow from the donor is given to the patient through a needle in the vein, and the marrow replaces the marrow that was destroyed. A bone marrow transplant using marrow from a relative or from a person who is not related is called an allogeneic bone marrow transplant. A greater chance for recovery occurs if the doctor chooses a hospital that does more than five bone marrow transplantations per year.
The overall chance of recovery (the long-term prognosis) depends on the subtype of AML and the patient's age and general health.

Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
I just wonder if Steve thinks of himself as a Titan or a Raven...I know we consider him a TRUE Raven, but does his heart still want to be in Tennessee?? Just thinking out loud.....After we play the Sqweelers this weekend, he'll find out what it means to be a TRUE Raven

Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
Steve McNair is a true professional, I believe he must feel like a Raven by now!
After the BS way the Titans treated him at the end of his career with them, I can't imagine "his heart still wanting to be in Tennessee."
Right now, 8-2, top of the AFCN, the Offensive leader of a Ravens' Team with possibly the best team chemistry in franchise history...I'd be shocked if he didn't feel like a true Raven!
After we play the Sqweelers this weekend, he'll find out what it means to be a TRUE Raven
C'mon, Steve, lead us to victory over our most bitter rival, Time to Kick some Squeeler Ass! :ww: :ww:
Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???I just wonder if Steve thinks of himself as a Titan or a Raven
Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
"possibly the best team chemistry in franchise history"
I had this same thought today myself.
Don't ever recall the tight bond that This team seems to have in past years, including the Superbowl year.
This team seems to have the perfect mix of personalitys combined with vets and young guns.
Don't know if I'd classify Mcnair as a true Raven, but I think his presence here is more then responsible for the chemistry these guys seem to have.
To me, a true Raven is somebody that has played here for a long time, that has lived through both thick and thin with this organization.
If Mcnair was voted into the hall of fame, I'd have to believe he'd go in as a Titan.
That doesn't mean his heart and soul isn't 100% into the team he plays for now though.Will Die A Ravens Fan!!

Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
I think probably in his heart he will always be a Titan, just like any other player who spends most of their career with one team and then moves on late in their career to another team just for the money. I think Shannon Sharpe will always be a donkey, Rod will always be a Squealer, etc.
But like SHannon and Rod he is pro enough to give us his best effort while he's here.

Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
The great thing about the NFL Hall Of Fame is that a player is not assigned to a specific team, and that each team, that player played for, is represented.
I think McNair views himself a Raven, but will always have a special place in his heart for Tennessee. Shannon Sharpe also treasures his time as a Raven, but he wil always be associated with the Broncos. Deion, who played for several teams, is often seen on NFL Network wearing Ravens gear.It's a new season! It's a new day!
Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
Steve McNair is a true professional. True professionals, regardless of profession, always feel that whatever they are doing right now, is the most important thing they could be doing. They don't dwell on the past, daydreaming of where they were or what they could have done. I am sure when he retires, he will have fond memories of both franchises.
However, right now he is a Raven. He may not be a life-long Raven, but anyone who puts on the uniform and has his team's best interest at heart is a true player to his team.
Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
If I were Steve McNair, after the way the Titans treated him after all the years of giving so much for that organization, I'd be pretty pissed off, and would want nothing to do with that organization ever again.
Not only are the Ravens his team now, but some of the most important pieces of the Titans are here with him now (Mason, Rolle).
If he happens to get a ring while here, it will only cement his image as a Raven.

Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
He certainly has done many good things for the community in Tennesee. He is beloved there by the fans and will always be treasured there. I am quite sure he has a place for Tennesee and for Baltimore. He is having a great season so far and finds a way to win each week. He is the reason we are 8-2. Not that others haven't contributed to wins, but the team believes in him and he is getting it done.
Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
I don't like McNair, never have and never will. To me he will always be the over hyped hated Tits QB. That being said, Steve is a professional that wants to go out a winner; something that wasn't going to happen in Tenn. I believe he will give us 100% every week and do everything in his power to get us to another SB if for no other reason then to prove a point. As long as he is wearing a Ravens uniform he is a Raven to me just like Sharp was. I couldn't stand Sharp before he got here, and still can't stand Mr Ed, but I cheered for him as a Raven as loudly as anyone.
Sadly football as with all major professional sports has become a me first business. There just doesn't seem to me to be any more hometown heros like the ones I grew up with. So when someone asks me if McNoodle is a Raven or a Tit, I say who cares anymore, because that can change in a heartbeat in this modern sports world. If he puts on purple Sunday I'll cheer him on, if not I'll boo him just like I will boo Ray Lewis the day he bolts. These players despite what they say really don't give a damm who pays their check or where they play, they just care how big it is and how many times they can get on NFL highlights and see their name in the papers.

The bottom line is Steve has never won a ring, he has an excellent opportunity to do so this year, so I expect he'll play lights out to get one. Which is all we can ask.
Re: Is Steve McNair a TRUE Raven???
Steve McNair all-time vs Pittsburgh:
198 for 327 attempts, 60.6% completion, 17 TDs, 11 INTs, and 2453 yards.
Thats in 13 meetings, so about 1.3 TD's, .84 INTs, 188.6 yards average per game.
Not incredibly impressive, but he hasnt exactly struggled against them. But McNair is 9-4 against them, and in the end arent wins the only stat that matters?
McNair and the Ravens will be OK tommorow IMO, and we will all be sure where Steve's heart lies."This year, our attitude when were on the field is were attacking, we want to put points on the board and then let our defense pin their ears back and have at it."

The Other Carbon
Most development and analysis of climate change policies have focused on reducing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases (GHGs), which are widely recognized as the major contributors to climate change. And as we blogged about last year, far less attention has been given to black carbon (BC). However things may be changing. Inspired by University of California – San Diego professor Veerabhadran Ramanathan's Foreign Affairs article, "The Other Climate Changers," the United States House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming held a hearing last Tuesday to investigate the impacts of black carbon pollution. The takeaway message from this hearing is that BC policies should be complementary to efforts to reduce GHG gases. Reductions in emissions of black carbon would have near-term effects on reducing global warming that are not possible from actions directed at carbon dioxide and other long-lived gases. Reducing BC is good for the environment, public health, and creates jobs. We recently published a detailed primer on BC science and policy.
Both professors Ramanathan and Tami Bond of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign gave an overview of the science of black carbon – uncombusted materials like soot and smoke. A growing body of evidence indicates that soot and smoke are major contributors, possibly second only to carbon dioxide, to human-induced global warming. BC warms the air by absorbing sunlight in the atmosphere, changes rainfall patterns and, when deposited on snow and ice, accelerates melting. According to Professor Ramanathan, BC's warming effect is around 40 to 70 percent of that of carbon dioxide. However, unlike carbon dioxide, black carbon does not accumulate in the atmosphere; it stays in the atmosphere for a few weeks, so the impacts are more concentrated in the areas where they are produced, and reducing BC emissions would have near-term benefits in those areas.
BC is produced by both natural processes and human activity from the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, biofuels, and biomass. According to Professor Ramanthan, the regional effects of BC are particularly large over the Arctic, Africa, and Asia. BC leads to increased melting of snow and ice in the Arctic, Sahelian drought, and decreased monsoon rainfall. Primary sources include diesel engines, small industrial sources, residential coal and solid biofuels for cooking and heating, and agricultural and forest fires.
Since the impacts of BC are regional, there are significant local environment, public health, and economic benefits of reducing BC emissions. Reducing BC emissions in India for example, would not only produce environmental benefits of cleaner air and negate rainfall loss, but would also save lives. Professor Ramanathan's calculations indicate that replacing cook stoves in India with advanced biomass stoves could prevent 2 million deaths from the reduction of particulate matter produced by traditional stoves. Mitigating BC emissions would also prevent reduced rainfall and reduced agriculture yields.
According to another panelist, Conrad Schneider, Advocacy Director of the Clean Air Task Force, reducing BC emissions can create clean jobs here in the United States. Even though BC isn't much of a climate forcing in the U.S. and a potentially expensive source of reductions, there is a billion dollars worth of work to reduce diesel's BC emissions. For example, retrofitting 11 million diesel engines in the U.S. today could achieve the same environmental benefit as removing 21 million cars from the road, would save approximately 7,500 lives through reduced particulate matter pollution, and create tens of thousands of domestic jobs.
In order to get the environmental, economic, and public health benefits of reduced BC emissions, all the witnesses agreed that action must be taken. For more information, please check our white paper on the climate impacts of black carbon.

Light, shadow, texture, and patterning enliven this pen-and-wash drawing with buoyant activity. Created by Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo during the last years of his life, the RISD sheet is one of a series of 104 drawings entitled Diversion for the Children. The series presents the life of Punchinello, a clownish character from Italian popular theater. In Venetian culture, the figure of Punchinello denoted role-playing and personified the duality of the noble and wicked aspects of human nature. Here, the artist depicted two Punchinellos in conical hats at a country dance. The dainty feet of the dancers float across the foreground while one Punchinello is carried away in the festive fervor and the other watches sheepishly from the periphery.

Chris Brown fights to keep weed at rehab
Listen to Chris Brown on iHeartRadio
(TMZ) - Chris Brown surrendered his phone and the Internet while in rehab for anger management, TMZ has learned - but he didn't give up his weed without a fight.
According to TMZ, when Chris enrolled in his court-ordered rehab joint after last week's progress hearing in the Rihanna beating case ... he asked the rehab staff if he could bring his weed along.
TMZ reports Chris told staff the Mary Jane was prescribed by a doctor for a medical condition - depression - but the staff rejected his request. TMZ is told told Chris kicked up a stink, claiming pot makes him calm, but the staff was unbending.
As TMZ reported, the judge in the case ordered Brown to enroll in a live-in anger management facility for 90 days following his previous stint in anger rehab, when he was booted after just two weeks ... ironically because he flew into a violent rage.
Hopefully the no-weed rule won't exacerbate Chris's anger problems. They won't like him when he's angry.

Australian stocks have hit six-year highs on the back of strong US leads and a record production report from miner BHP Billiton.
The close of 5576.7 points and intraday high of 5598 were both the ASX200's highest levels since 2008, and it finished its sixth straight day of gains.
CMC Markets chief market strategist Michael McCarthy said strong overnight leads from the US and market heavyweight BHP Billiton's better than expected annual production number were key drivers.
"The slightly weaker than expected US CPI number was a Goldilocks, not too warm, not too hot, number for stocks," he told AAP.
"Inflation was not high enough to cause concerns about higher interest rates but well outside the range of deflation."
Australia's own quarterly inflation figures on Wednesday were higher-than-expected at 2.8 per cent but any rate rises are not considered likely in the near term.
BHP Billiton was 47 cents, or 1.2 per cent, higher at $38.98 after it reported record production of iron ore and coal.
Fellow resources company Rio Tinto gained 40 cents to $64.53 while Fortescue Metals gave up some strong early gains to close up one cent at $4.62.
The big banks were all higher on a day that the biggest home lender Commonwealth sparked a a price war after dropping its five year fixed home loan rate to 4.99 per cent.
CBA added 30 cents to $81.56, ANZ rose 13 cents to $33.50, NAB gained 21 cents to $34.41, and Westpac put on 15 cents to $34.09.
* At the close on Wednesday the benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was 33.4 points, or 0.6 per cent, higher at 5,576.7.
* The broader All Ordinaries index was up 33.0 points, or 0.60 per cent, at 5,567.0.
* The September share price index futures contract was 54 points higher at 5,549 points, with 17,911 contracts traded.
* The price of gold in Sydney at 1700 AEST was $US1,306.30, down $US1.50 on Tuesday's price of $US1,307.80.
* National turnover was 1.93 billion securities worth $4 billion.

Brevard, N.C. - Former Brevard College linebacker Stanley Jones has signed a contract with the Alabama Hammers of the Southern Indoor Football League during the Hammers' Inaugural season in the SIFL.
Jones signed a contract with the Hammers on February 20th to come into camp as a linebacker, but the 5-11 athlete has made the position switch to cornerback, where he lines up as the Hammers biggest corner on the roster.
"The indoor game is a lot faster, especially now since I'm a cornerback and the receivers get a running start," said Jones. "Being new to the professional game, I still have the linebacker mentality, but now I have to make the adjustment and change my game up to be successful."
Jones, a Spartanburg, S.C. native, finished his collegiate career with Brevard College as the all-time leader in tackles 344 tackles and leading the South Atlantic Conference in tackles and tackles per game in his senior season with 116 total tackles, averaging of 10.5 per game to go with four sacks and 12 tackles for loss in being named to the Don Hansen's All-Super Region Two squad as a First Team selection in 2009. Jones also received numerous accolades, including being selected as a Preseason All-American Honorable mention in 2009 and Jones was a First team All-SAC linebacker in 2009, and a Second Team All-SAC linebacker in 2008.
When asked if he had anything to say to the BC faithful, Jones replied, "I miss being a part of Brevard College. The fans were and still are great and I wish Coach Hamilton and the staff nothing but the best in the 2011 year."

Yakima BedHead
Solid option for carrying your road bikes in the bed of your truck. I have used them for lighter xc bikes as well and they seem to be pretty solid with those as well.
Skip the locking ones
I've got two of these installed on my truck & use them a few times a month for road & mountain bikes. They are easy to install & work great. My advice is to skip the locking units that sell for a little more & get the standard ones. When you do put the bikes on, just toss a cable through the frames & wheels then lock them to the tie down point in the bed. The bikes are more secure from theft that way anyway.
so sweet and simple
So I was too cheap and didn't want the clumsy hitch mount for my truck. Originally was worried about how stable they would be. You have nothing to worry about for our normal everyday city/highway/interstate runs. They install and remove in less than 60 seconds and I bet you can get 4 bikes in a std 6ft bed. My All-Mountain Bike fits in between the wheel wells on 1/2 ton GM truck. These turned out better than I had imagined. No worries purchasing this Yakima product.
works great.. very satisfied. friends that i ride with all want one now
These are compact and easy to set up.
I needed a mount that was easy to set up and compact for storage on the off season. The bikes rode up next to the cab so they were protected from the wind. I was also able to preserve 80% of my bedspace for other equipment. I highly recommend these clamps.

The Kardashians take over Magic Mountain for Kendall's 18th birthday
(Yahoo!) - Kendall Jenner's 18th birthday celebration was a true thrill.
While the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" teen star's big day isn't until Nov. 3, she and her family descended upon Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California, on Tuesday for an epic celebration. The famous family had the famed theme park to themselves for an evening of fun. In other words, No lines, no walking, and all the rides on Apocalypse and The Riddler's Revenge they could want.
"We're here for Kendall's birthday party," big sis Kim said in a Keek video capturing some behind-the-scenes video of the private party. "We rented out Magic Mountain. No one else is in the entire theme park but us and the people there to greet us. No one is even working in the concession stands. And we get to drive instead of walk."
Oct 29, 2013 | Magic mountain by KimKardashian on Keek.com
"This is what Kendall wanted and it's a nice surprise for her," she continued. "So happy birthday Kendall."
A second video posted by Kanye West's new fiancée was taken on a roller coaster and features a lot of screaming. (Consider yourself warned.)
Oct 29, 2013 | OMMMMGGGGG!!!!!! by KimKardashian on Keek.com
Kim wasn't the only one doing camera work to capture Kendall's special day. Kris Jenner, who appeared to be prepared for a trip to the Arctic with that fur-covered hooded jacket, made nice with estranged husband Bruce Jenner for the family event. They took a selfie along with his sons Brody and Brandon.
"It was a perfect night at the Magic Mountain," Kris wrote in the Instagram pic, which she tagged "#happybirthdaykendall."
Brody posted some videos as well, including one of Kendall and Kylie on the SlingShot, which featured, yes, more screaming.
"Birthday fun with my beautiful little sister," he wrote on Instagram.
Khloé, who reunited with her estranged husband Lamar Odom at Kanye West's concert earlier this week, appeared to be flying solo for this event, but seemed to make some new friends. Furry ones. And in a photo of the Superman: Escape From Krypton ride, she noted, "Kendall runs this town today."
Justin Bieber pal Lil Twist was also there and tweeted:
Dope ass day with the fam.... Happy B Day Kendall!! Love!!— Lil Twist #TeamTwist (@LilTwist) October 30, 2013
As for the guest of honor, Kendall posted just one pic of the eerily empty theme park at night, writing, "All to ourselves."
No doubt it was a night to remember.

Yeh the piece is a tad different than the rest, but it had some humour elements to it that I thought people would find funny or at least appreciate a bit. I did a Dare piece because it was Dare drawing in the sketch itself. The grim reaper represents the death of Dare. Then the couple fucking was just hilarious to me. I guess people are so used to mundane shite, they've forgotten to not take everything so seriously. Chill out, it's not a big deall really ;]

Fox's "Nazi" rhetoric also comes straight from the top
Research ››› ››› JUSTIN BERRIER
In a recent interview, Fox News chairman Roger Ailes referred to National Public Radio executives as "Nazis" with a "Nazi attitude," and claimed "[t]hey are the left wing of Nazism." Ailes' employees at Fox News, particularly Glenn Beck, have also used Nazi and Holocaust imagery to smear President Obama, Democrats, and progressive figures.
Ailes smears NPR executives as "the left wing of Nazism"
Ailes: NPR executives have a "Nazi attitude. They are the left wing of Nazism." In a recent Daily Beast interview with Howard Kurtz, Ailes called NPR "Nazis," adding "they have a kind of Nazi attitude. They are the left wing of Nazism." From The Daily Beast:
The onetime Republican strategist is a man of strong opinions, in case that wasn't clear, and he also puts his money where his mouth is. When Juan Williams was fired by National Public Radio for remarks he made on Fox about fearing airplane passengers in Muslim garb, Ailes rushed to award him a three-year, $2 million contract.
"A guy who gets fired and humiliated in the press can lose a lot of confidence," Ailes says. Calling Williams "a pure liberal," Ailes says he wanted to compensate the pundit for his losses because he was "mad" and "I didn't want him to have to call his wife and say we lost money."
Then he turned his sights on NPR executives.
"They are, of course, Nazis. They have a kind of Nazi attitude. They are the left wing of Nazism. These guys don't want any other point of view. They don't even feel guilty using tax dollars to spout their propaganda. They are basically Air America with government funding to keep them alive."
It's hardly surprising that Ailes would defend Williams or castigate NPR. But trotting out such Third Reich rhetoric seems, shall we say, disproportionate to the situation. NPR spokeswoman Anna Christopher says only that "we will let Mr. Ailes' words speak for themselves."
Fox News frequently evoke Nazism to smear opponents
Beck on NEA conference call: "You should look up the name Goebbels." On the November 3, 2009, edition of his Fox News show, discussing an NEA conference call in which artists reportedly discussed how "to help lay a new foundation for growth, focusing on core areas of the recovery agenda," Beck said that "advocating through art is known as propaganda. Hmm. You should look up the name Goebbels."
Beck compares media portrayal of "tea partygoers" to Nazi portrayal of anti-Nazi "complainers." On the August 11, 2009, edition of his Fox show, Beck compared the media's portrayal of the "tea partygoers" to a Nazi propaganda poster portraying "complainers" about Nazi policies, saying, "This is a poster of what you see every day now in the news media making the complainers, the tea partygoers, look somehow rotten."
Beck: Holocaust survivor's story of how Nazis drove a wedge between students and parents sounds like U.N. and Gore. On the September 24 edition of his Fox News show, Beck hosted a Holocaust survivor who said that the Nazis drove a wedge between students and their parents. Beck responded by saying, "I don't know about anybody else ... this, to me, doesn't sound like stuff necessarily that I've heard from Obama. This is stuff that I've heard from the U.N. This is the kind of stuff that we have heard from ... Al Gore."
Beck: Progressives use "democratic elections" to push dictators -- "Hitler, 'democratically elected.' " On the April 28 edition of his Fox News show, Beck stated that progressives use "democratic elections" to push dictators, then stated, "You'll hear this when they talk about the 'democratically elected' leader of Iran; the democratic leader Chavez, 'democratically elected,' you know; Castro, 'democratically elected'; Hitler - 'democratically elected.' "
Beck on Obama's "civilian national security force": "This is what Hitler did with the SS." Discussing President Obama's call for a "civilian national security force" -- which was a reference to expanding the foreign service, AmeriCorps, and the Peace Corps -- Beck said on the August 27, 2009, edition of his Fox News program:
BECK: I'm finding this -- this is the hardest part to connect to. Because this is -- I mean, look, you know, David [Bellavia, former Army staff sergeant], what you just said is, you said, 'I'm not comparing' -- but you are. I mean, this is what Hitler did with the SS. He had his own people. He had the brownshirts and then the SS. This is what Saddam Hussein -- so -- but you are comparing that. And I -- I mean, I think America would have a really hard time getting their arms around that.
Beck told Newsmax: "I fear a Reichstag moment." On September 29, 2009, conservative news website Newsmax.com reported of its interview with Beck:
But his real worry is that many Washington elitists really don't like our form of government and want to see it abolished.
"I fear a Reichstag moment," he said, referring to the 1933 burning of Germany's parliament building in Berlin that the Nazis blamed on communists and Hitler used as an excuse to suspend constitutional liberties and consolidate power.
"God forbid, another 9/11. Something that will turn this machine on, and power will be seized and voices will be silenced."
Beck compared auto bailouts to the actions of German companies "in the early days of Adolf Hitler." While discussing the auto company bailouts on the April 1, 2009, edition of his Fox News program, after stating, "I am not saying that Barack Obama is a fascist," Beck said, "If I'm not mistaken, in the early days of Adolf Hitler, they were very happy to line up for help there as well. I mean, the companies were like, 'Hey, wait a minute. We can get, you know, we can get out of trouble here. They can help, et cetera, et cetera.' "
Beck compared TARP to "what happened to the lead-up with Hitler." On the April 21, 2009, edition of Fox Business' Money for Breakfast, Beck said of the Troubled Asset Relief Program [TARP]:
BECK: This is not comparing these people to the people in Germany, but this is exactly what happened to the lead-up with Hitler. Hitler opened up the door and said, "Hey, companies, I can help you." They all ran through the door. And then in the end, they all saw, "Uh-oh. I'm in bed with the devil." They started to take their foot out, and Hitler said, "Absolutely not. Sorry, gang. This is good for the country. We've got to do these things." And it was too late.
Beck said "the Germans" during Hitler's rise "were an awful lot like we are now." On the June 10, 2009, edition of his Fox News program, Beck stated: "I think the Germans, however, were an awful lot like we are now. We're kind of living in a denial, like, 'No, no, that can't really be happening. No, that really - I' -- you don't want to believe some things, but you have to. You have to actually think about them."
Beck airs photos of Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, asks, "Is this where we're headed?" On the April 2, 2009, edition of his Fox News program, while teasing the next day's show, Beck asked, "Is this where we're headed?" while airing photos of Hitler, Josef Stalin, and Vladimir Lenin.
Beck compares Gore to Goebbels, says, "The government and its friends are indoctrinating our children for the control of their minds." On the February 5, 2009, edition of his Fox News show, Beck stated, "The government and its friends are indoctrinating our children for the control of their minds, your freedom, and our choice and our future." Beck then quoted Joesph Goebbels discussing the Hitler Youth and said, "If mom and dad decide the keep the temperature above 72, should our 'Gore youth' report mom and dad?"
Gingrich: Obama, Dems threatening America as much as "Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union once did." On the May 16 edition of Fox Broadcasting Co.'s Fox News Sunday, Fox News contributor Newt Gingrich said that Obama and Democratic policies threaten America as much as "Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union once did."
O'Reilly said liberals who support gun control are "totalitarians," compared them to Hitler. On the March 2 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly said liberals who support gun control are "today's totalitarians," adding that in the past people like "Hitler and Mussolini" held such positions in favor of "state control."
O'Reilly claimed media using Goebbels tactics to push "rank propaganda." In his July 16, 2009, syndicated column, O'Reilly wrote that "The far left is trying to create a huge federal apparatus that will promote income redistribution and 'social justice.' Also, the left sees a major opportunity to knock out Judeo-Christian traditions, replacing them with a secular philosophy." He added that "the left-wing media is marginalizing people like Sarah Palin who oppose the strategy. Under the guise of hard news reporting, the media is pushing rank propaganda on the citizenry. Dr. Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister, successfully developed this tactic in the 1930's."
O'Reilly: Huffington Post uses "same exact tactics that the Nazis used." On The March 5, 2008, edition of The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly said "And I said that these tactics that are being used on this website, The Huffington Post, are the same exact tactics that the Nazis used in the late '20s and early '30s to demonize certain groups of people, so it would become easier for them, the Nazis, when they took power, to hurt those people." Earlier, on February 27, 2008, O'Reilly said that "I don't see any difference between [Arianna] Huffington and the Nazis. ... I don't see any difference."
O'Reilly compared Tim Robbins' comments to those of "Von Ribbentrop in the Nazi hierarchy." On the December 13, 2007, edition of The O'Reilly Factor, Jane Hall said that comments made by actor Tim Robbins while campaigning for John Edwards, in which Robbins criticized the media for focusing more on "the most recent pop star's fall from grace" instead of "veterans returning from Iraq," were "valid." In response, Bill O'Reilly said, "But Von Ribbentrop in the Nazi hierarchy made valid points, Jane."
O'Reilly: Daily Kos is "like the Nazi Party." On the July 16, 2007, edition of The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly said that the Daily Kos is "like the Ku Klux Klan. It's like the Nazi party. There's no difference here." A day later, O'Reilly said "That website traffics in [hate], as do the Nazi websites. No difference." On July 19, 2007, O'Reilly said of Daily Kos: "The hate this website traffics in rivals the KKK and Nazi websites."
Hannity: Using Quran for swearing-in is same as using a "Nazi bible." On the November 30, 2006, edition of Hannity & Colmes, Sean Hannity said that Rep. Keith Ellison using a copy of the Quran during his swearing-in ceremony "will embolden Islamic extremists and make new ones" and is comparable to using "Hitler's Mein Kampf, is the Nazis' bible."
Coulter on Media Matters: "little Nazi block watcher" website. On the December 1, 2005, edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, right-wing pundit Ann Coulter called websites like Media Matters "little Nazi block watchers" that "tattle on their parents, turn them in to the Nazis."
O'Reilly compares Michael Moore's "power" to what "happened in Nazi Germany." On the July 28, 2004, edition of The O'Reilly Factor, Bill O'Reilly said that Michael Moore "has more power than probably anybody else other than [Senators John] Kerry and [John] Edwards," adding that Moore's purported "power" was "scary" because "this happened in Nazi Germany." O'Reilly went on to ask: "Who was the most powerful person in Nazi Germany other than Hitler and Himmler and Goering, who? You guys know? ... Goebbels. The propaganda minister."
O'Reilly likened Moore, Franken to Goebbels. On the June 14, 2004, edition of The O'Reilly Factor, Bill O'Reilly compared both Michael Moore and Al Franken to Goebbels. O'Reilly also likened a group of Hollywood celebrities who attended a premiere of Moore's film Fahrenheit 9/11 to "the people who would turn out to see Josef Goebbels convince you that Poland invaded the Third Reich."

Julie - from Ottawa, OH
The hump that you are referring to is called a cake "crown", or sometimes "dome." You're not doing anything wrong - a cake crowns because the sides of the cake that are touching the hot pan cook faster than the center of the cake. You can greatly reduce, and often completely eliminate that hump by using Bake Even Strips. These strips slow down the baking on the sides of the cake so that they rise more evenly along with the center. They are easy to use, and I highly recommend them.

Unlike typical tabletop saltwater aquariums with ineffective filtration, this superior aquarium filters the water 5X more often to maintain a clean, oxygenated environment. A silent filtration system circulates the 3-gallon aquarium's water through a carbon-infused, fine mesh filter 20 times every hour, removing impurities, excess food, and waste. The included air pump automatically provides proper aeration to foster a sustainable saltwater environment for yellowtail damsel, firefish, or other small fish. The 16"-diameter aquarium sets up unobtrusively on a table and its dome is made from scratch-resistant, marine-grade acrylic, creating a 360� oceanic vista. The dome and base are connected by thick, clear plastic accordion sheeting and when the dome is lifted it more than doubles the capacity of the aquarium, allowing you to clean the aquarium without having to remove the water or fish. The dome acts as a thermal barrier to keep the water warm, eliminating the need for a heater. Gravel, plants, and coral not included. Plugs into AC. 16 1/2" Diam x 10 1/2" H. (13 lbs.)
Lifetime Guarantee
The Tabletop Saltwater Aquarium comes with The Hammacher Schlemmer Lifetime Guarantee. If this product ever disappoints you, for any reason, you may return your Hammacher Schlemmer purchase for exchange, credit, or refund.
Should you have any questions, we are available seven days a week (8:00 am – midnight EST). Please call 1-800-321-1484 to speak with a specialist or email us at email@example.com to receive a response within three business hours or less.

But, "the kind of list that Darwin made was completely useless," says Lehrer.
The movement to get Darwin out of the public schools began a century ago, just shortly after he showed up.
And that is what Darwin and Lincoln share, and what they pass on to us.
Darwin is allowed to wander around in his own mind, and not just for the Socratic, is-he-guilty-or-innocent routine.
"I had not the most remote notion of what a wonderful man he was," Darwin wrote of Aristotle in his reply to Ogle.
Haeckel would hardly have existed if Darwin had not existed.
Fifty years ago Darwin put some knowledge into the common stock.
Lamarck maintains that animals and plants vary: so does Mr. Darwin.
An attempt to explain this was made by Darwin in his theory of Pangenesis.
Much less did I imply that Mr. Darwin was pert: pert is one of the last words that can be applied to Mr. Darwin.
surname attested from 12c., from Old English deorwine, literally "dear friend," probably used as a given name and also the source of the masc. proper name Derwin.
Darwin Dar·win (där'wĭn), Charles Robert. 1809-1882.
British naturalist who revolutionized the study of biology with his theory of evolution based on natural selection. His most famous works include Origin of Species (1859) and The Descent of Man (1871).
British naturalist who proposed the theory of evolution based on natural selection (1858). Darwin's theory, that random variation of traits within an individual species can lead to the development of new species, revolutionized the study of biology.
Our Living Language : The flora and fauna of the Galápagos Archipelago, a group of islands 650 miles west of Ecuador in the Pacific Ocean, provided the inspiration for Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, which outlined his theory of evolution. Although Darwin spent some time studying medicine and later prepared for the clergy, graduating in 1828 from Christ's College, Cambridge, he couldn't deny his interest in geology and natural history. He spent five years (1831-36) as a naturalist aboard the HMS Beagle on an exploration of South America and Australia. In September 1835 the Beagle reached the Galápagos Archipelago. "This archipelago," Darwin wrote, "seems to be a little world within itself, the greater number of its inhabitants, both vegetable and animal, being found nowhere else." Darwin observed 26 species of birds, only one of which was known to exist anywhere else, as well as giant tortoises and other unusual reptiles. Each species, he observed, was uniquely adapted to the particular island on which it lived. Upon his return to England, Darwin refined his notes and continued to make scientific observations, this time of his own garden and of the animals kept by his family. In 1859, after 23 years of sustained work, he published On the Origin of Species, in which he argued that traits such as size and color vary from species to species and that individual variations of these traits are passed down from parents to offspring. More progeny are produced than there is available sustenance. Variations that contribute more successfully to attracting a mate and reproducing are passed down to more offspring, eventually influencing the entire species. Through this process of natural selection, the highly complex species of today gradually evolved from earlier, simpler organisms.

Reviews for this host's other properties
i liked the appartment - it's spacious, location is perfect - right in the center, metro is close to the hotel. Arda and his family are great!!! very helpful and kind people. when i'm back to Istanbul, i will definately stay in this appartment.
thank you very much!
The location was perfect. They have 3 buildings and they mus be near between them.So... the address that appears when you book is not the exactly one.
The studio was the perfect size. Cleaning was ok although it could be better.
Anyway. I would repeat it.
the photos on the site are a combination of beautiful corners of many different apartments. Unfortunately, our bathroom was very small, there was no place to make normal use of it. There was also a difference of opinion or whether breakfast was not included. The people at the desk were friendly, but over all it was a bit disappointing. Next time look for another place.
de foto's op de site zijn een combinatie van mooie hoeken van allerlei verschillende appartementen. Helaas was onze badkamer zeer klein, er was geen plaats om er normaal gebruik van te maken. Ook was er verschil van inzicht of het ontbijt wel of niet inclusief was. De mensen aan de balie waren vriendelijk, maar all over viel het wel een beetje tegen. Volgende keer op zoek naar een andere plekje.
The flat was very nice, but it would be even better, if there were som armchairs on the terrace or somewhere else in the flat. The kitchen was nice to look at, but there was no oven or microwave and only two small cooking plates.
We would have given it four stars, if our arrival had not been so disappointing.
We were shown to another flat, than we had rented, and when we protested, they tried to persuade us to stay in the wrong flat. When we insisted, they said the flat was not vakant, but we could get it next day at 12. When we arrived at the office next day at noon, the flat was still not ready. We insisted to have the flat we had rented, and then they finally started to clean the flat. We were able to move in at 1 pm. We were told, that the flat was not vakant, but we didn't see anybody in it or coming out from it. It was a very strange experience.
the stay in the apartment was much appreciated. there was even a small roof terrace where we could fruestuecken. Otherwise, everything was very clean, the only Countertops (knives, glasses) was a bit poor.
der Aufenthalt in dem Appartment hat uns sehr gefallen. es gab sogar eine kleine Dachterrasse auf der wir fruestuecken konnten. Sonst war alles sehr sauber, nur die Kuechenausstattung (Messer, Gläser ) war noch etwas dürftig.
We had a great time in Istanbul. And: It was a great choice to stay at Bianco Suites. We got to know all the family of Arda. :-) They were very friendly and helpful. The Appartement was recently renovated and we had enough Space for the 4 of us. Taskim place is just 5 Minutes away and so it is Istakal Boulevard. Thanks a lot!
Very good service from all the staff. Very helpfull and kind to all of us (we where five guests). Perfect accomodation, the appartment was nice and the terasse was amazing with a view over Istanbul. Can highly recommend it!
A great place in the heart of istanbul! The apt. is very modern, two-floor and equipped with everything you need and the view from the balcony is great as well! Easy walking distance to Taksim square where the main shopping and bar street starts.Ideal place to stay for a trip to Istanbul!
We stayed with 3 persons 3 nights in this furnished apartment in the top floor. There is space for 4 persons (2 in a regular bed and 2 on the sofa bed – which I used and is very comfortable). The location of the apartment is very good. Taksim square is only 3 minutes walking distance away and as the aparment is in a backstreet to the main road it was quite calm. The hospitality of our host team was great. They just recently started renting of apartments and are very willing to offer a perfect service. They helped as with good information and were very friendly. The aparment as everything we needed and was perfectly clean and equipped. As everything is renovated everything worked perfect. We felt very safe and comfortable and would stay there without hesitation a next time we stay in istanbul. Thank you very much dear Bianco family!

Fundamentals of Public Relations
Course Overview
Public relations provides the means to communicate your ideas and get them accepted—a skill vitally necessary when dealing with new ideas. It is a way to gain support for your projects and endeavors.
Generally considered a method to gain publicity, public relations has previously been subjected to severe limitations. This was a practice that lacked certain key elements. Now, because of some important discoveries in Scientology, advances have made the entire activity significantly more useful and effective.
L. Ron Hubbard's refinement of public relations not only makes it essential for any group and any individual, but removes the previously inherent limitations. Although the full technology is extensive, the basic principles covered here will be of immense value to anyone with a worthwhile purpose.
