FOS11 Statement
The article by Tom Kean and Lee Hamilton in The Washington Post's Outlook section on September 9th 2007 is an unrelenting spotlight on the work left undone by our leaders. Six years after 9/11, Families of September 11 remains committed to the principal that our nation must be made safe and secure. We are grateful to the former Chair and Vice-Chair of the 9/11 Commission for sharing their wisdom on what our leaders can do to get us there.
Recent legislation passed by Congress and signed into law by President Bush made positive steps forward, but more needs to be done. We remain ever-aware of the threat posed by al Qaeda and their affiliates, a threat detailed by the recent National Intelligence Estimate. This threat includes Osama bin Laden's vow to use a nuclear weapon to kill four million Americans, increased hatred for Americans around the globe and a lack of focus on the tough choices we need to make at home.
Families of September 11 will continue to work for implementation of the recommendations of the 9/11 Commissioners. In the six years since the terrible event that inspired our formation, we advocated for the creation of an independent investigation into the attacks, have urged passage by Congress of multiple pieces of legislation to improve our security, and have reminded our leaders there is much that is still to be done. We have come up with innovative programs enabling ordinary citizens to play a role in helping make sure what happened on 9/11 never happens again. We are aware, now more than ever, that our work—and that of all Americans—has, sadly, never been more important.

Once again, the strongest kage statements are opinions, and not something I necessarily care about, however, they're not hyperbole. Kabuto's opinion is he was the strongest of the kage in his generation. Iruka's opinion is that he was the strongest Hokage to ever live. But that's all they are, opinions. Kabuto's statement may have some merit given the fact that he spied on countries and probably had decent knowledge of each kage, but it still boils down to opinion.Evidence for Hirzen
- Some hyperbolic remarks in the manga, these being; a) that he was "said to be" the strongest ho/kage, and b) the claim he "was said to" "know all jutsu in the leaf". These 2 bits of evidence are extremely poor. The first remark is hyperbolic, and in the manga we've seen no end of remarks like this that were subsequently proven to be hyperbole. Remember how we were told Haku's jutsu had "never been stopped", or how "there's no stopping" Oro's soul transfer jutsu? You know, right before both were stopped. There are dozens of examples of this sort of hyperbole in the comic, which is why people don't go off hyperbole, they go off feats. Comic books have this problem all the time, which is why the 10 eyed man isn't actually the "most dangerous man in the world" as Batman comics hyperbolically state. Also consider the source here. This isn't a comment we're being given by the narrator, or by someone with credibility. These 2 remarks are from Iruka, some no name ninja's, and Oro is mocking that he's able to beat "you who were said to know all jutsu in the leaf". You act like the Sage of the 6 paths declared it to be so, and carved it on a mountain of truths.
As for "knowing all jutsu", he clearly doesn't know how to perform them, and if he does he was really dumb not to use them in a fight to the death with Oro. Maybe he knows of them, but it's far too much of a stretch to grant him every jutsu in the leaf with no evidence off such a flimsy remark as "he was said to" know them all (the Manga is full of these sorts of patently false remarks, just like Haku's jutsu being unstoppable). We're even explicitly told later that affinity with all 5 elements is impossible without the rinnegan. So at best, this reputation remark is a reference to generic jutsu… and as someone else said, if you take away bloodline abilities and elemental jutsu, does that even leave much in the way of jutsu that matter? Not really.
In regards to knowing all of the jutsu, here is a great post to read: http://narutobase.net/forums/showthread.php?t=301094
As shown in that thread(which I do suggest reading, but I'll just quote this one thing), this is where Hiruzen spent a lot of his time:
Shelves stocked full of scrolls. He never stopped studying, even in his retirement. He reigned as Hokage for 30+ years. It's not some outlandish statement to believe he trained himself and spent the time studying to learn these techniques. He lived an usually long time for a kage, and given his dedication to it, it's believable.
Why didn't he use a lot of them vs Orochimaru? Well that should have been obvious in your research.
1. He was a 69 year old man. His chakra reserves were bad and he had to fight 3 kage-level opponents. He couldn't go around spamming techniques, he had to be careful with his reserves.
2. On top of what I just said, Hiruzen wasn't even giving it 100% in the fight. I know you're probably thinking "that's bullshit", but Enma himself says as much:
There's no reason to believe Hiruzen wasn't capable of such(learning the techniques, that is). He was an incredibly talented shinobi with all the dedication in the world.
#1 - The databooks are written by Kishimoto. - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11085135-naruto And they are official.- Hirzen scored high in the databooks
There is no reason for us to treat the databooks seriously. They're not written by the author, and are full of obviously ridiculous material. Ameratsu is not "as hot as the sun", and Naruto isn't dragonball Z, where power levels mean something. For heaven's sake, the databook gives Oro the same Genjutsu score as Itachi (a 5), which is patently ridiculous. Nobody should be invoking the databook as evidence of anything, no more than non-cannon star wars material, or a bunch of fanfic really. The scores in the databook do not represent characters actual abilities (Itachi for instance owns Oro every which way on Genjutsu, yet has an equal score… ridiculous).
#2 - Power levels don't actually mean much of anything in DBZ either. But I won't go in to detail on that, this isn't DBZ discussion.
#3 - The databooks aren't meant to be a "compare this character to that character" type of book. It's meant to show where each ninja excels/excelled/how good they are with it. The manga statements back up that Hiruzen was someone with a mastery of the ninja arts and someone with extremely high intelligence. There's no reason to believe his scores aren't correct.
Him "beating" the 3 is often over exaggerated, however, it stands that Enma was capable of fighting off the mokuton and he was able to counter Bringer of Darkness purely using his sense of smell. While it wasn't a "full on fight" from Hashi/Tobi and Orochimaru, it wasn't one from Hiruzen either, as pointed out by the statement from Enma. Would the 3 have murked him if not for Orochimaru's "toying" with him? Yeah. I don't know of anyone not named Edo Madara that could take on all 3 of them and pull off a victory even if they weren't edo tensei. But considering they had unlimited chakra and indestructible bodies, it would make it that much harder.- Hirzen "beat" Oro and the 2 edo Hokages.
Oro says very clearly that the 2 hokages are toying with him, and that's evident from reading the manga fight (remember, the anime doesn't count), where the hokage spend most of the fight standing around and letting Oro talk, and when Oro prompts them they do a few jutsu, but basically they just stand there. There's very little reason to believe these guys are going all out, and given that a) they're fighting in a confined area that massively disadvantages them, and b) what we see off Hashirama's power later, it's pretty clear we can't take the fight at face value.
I won't use the invented logic of "Oro hadn't perfected Edo Tensei", we have no indication that means they weren't at full strength, but they clearly aren't being made to go all out, because Oro thought there was no way he could lose, partly because he didn't know about the reaper death seal, which allowed Hirzen to take him by surprise and stop the fight before Oro got serious. Remember that your ability to control your own body is important to utilising your proper strength, the Hokage being mindless robots for Oro to control prevents them using the fighting genius they normally possess. Maybe the 2 Hokage would have gotten rid of the explosive tags if they could control their own movements, but Oro's tags didn't require them to because he knew that explosive tags couldn't hurt them. Remember, sometimes the author has illogical things happen, then retrospectively explains them. Like when Madara "let" Onoki blast some of his armour off, just so we could see the 1st Hokage's face.
Again, not worried about "strongest kage".This brings me to the next point, which a lot of people have flagged. The author changes his mind. Maybe back in volume 17 Kishi thought of Hirzen as the strongest (or 2nd strongest) Hokage ever… but it's very obvious at this point that view has been retconned. Now we don't strictly need to use this logic, because the above arguments I addressed don't really give much support to the idea Hirzen is that great, but certainly it's fair for Hirzen fans to feel like once upon a time Kishi intended for Hirzen to be one of the best Shinobi of all time. What that shouldn't blind them to is that there's pretty much no good evidence left to suggest he was, as we've gotten more and more evidence of stronger and stronger shinobi as the manga went (some who died a long time ago, some who are alive right now). I also feel like old age is a really crap excuse for Hirzen… sure, I can buy he was weaker, but Onoki (who is far older) is doing stuff that makes Hirzen look pitiful, such as carrying islands and meteors, atomising large areas, summoning giant stone golems bigger than Hirzen's earth wall, etc. Based off feats, Hirzen probably isn't in the top 20 shinobi, and even that's charitable. I'm sure he had a kage level strength, much like Tsunade who gets unfairly criticized, and we should remember that Itachi and Minato show us power doesn't require scale or flashiness. You can have relatively small and simple techniques and be awesome. But we can't just look at some hyperbole and a fight where nobody was going all out (under special conditions) and then say "yeh, Hirzen MUST have been the best… some randoms said so".
In regards to old age and Hiruzen/Onoki, old age has effected people differently in this series. It could have something to do with Hiruzen's retirement hurt him physically, Onoki has kept going as kage(though his back gives out, lol). It could be that Onoki simply aged a lot better. It could be that Onoki was stronger than Hiruzen in his prime and is stronger than him in old age, lord knows Onoki's a bad ass. But it's important to remember we didn't even see what all Hiruzen was capable of, even in old age. Hard to judge what would have happened/what we would have seen from him if he just fought Orochimaru alone. Who knows what happened.

ECU is coming off of an impressive 74-63 victory over the Norfolk State Spartans, an NCAA Tournament participant a year ago. The Pirates used a 12-0 run midway through the second half to dispose of the Spartans and look poised to continue the strong play against Campbell.
The Pirates are led by senior forward Maurice Kemp, who is averaging a team-high 18 points per game to go with 8.4 rebounds per game. Point guard Miguel Paul leads the team with 43 assists on the year while averaging 12.3 points per game. On the defensive end, Robert Sampson has been a force for ECU, leading the team with 9.4 rebounds per game and 18 blocked shots on the year.
Kemp is coming off of a season high 23-point performance against Norfolk State. Look for him to continue to excel against the Camels, who have had their share of problems this season.
Campbell enters the game with a 4-9 record, coming off of a 72-60 win over UNC Wilmington on Saturday. After starting the season 2-1, the Camels have lost eight of their last ten games prior to the contest against the Pirates.
One bright spot for Campbell has been the play of senior guard Darren White. White leads the team in both points (22.1) and rebounds (7.0) per game while also posting a team-best 52.7 percent field goal percentage. Though he has missed four of the last six games, White has topped 30 points in three different games this season (all Camel victories), including a 32-point effort against UNC Wilmington.
Obviously, the key for the Pirates will be to slow down White at all costs. He has proven that when he gets hot, this team rallies around him. The Camels have lost every game in which White has been held to under 20 points.
Offensively, the Pirates will need to use their size to their advantage. Campbell only has three players over 6'6" on their roster, whereas the Pirates have six (including Kemp and Sampson). Expect to see ECU try and get some production in the paint, where guys like Kemp and Sampson (or even Ty Armstrong or Marshall Guilmette) should be able to dominate the glass.
With only two non-conference games remaining on the schedule, the Pirates are ready to kick 2013 off with a solid performance. Their first test is a Campbell team that is hungry to turn its season around. I predict ECU will keep its home win-streak alive this Wed. with a 84-71 victory.

And you can also see that they went to the Nazis' website, and looked right at the swastika logo. In the whole clip, there isn't even a hint of the group's true nature.

Tom Emmer announces candidacy for Sixth District race
Former Minnesota state Rep. Tom Emmer (R), who narrowly lost a bid for governor in 2010, is the first candidate in the race to succeed Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.).
Emmer, who came within one percentage point of defeating now-Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton (D) three years ago, announced his bid for the conservative-leaning seat Wednesday evening.
"It seems like every day we hear about another out-of-control Washington, D.C. power grab," Emmer said in a speech announcing his bid in his hometown of Delano, promising to bring "the spirit of Main Street to Washington."
He's known for his strongly conservative views — including a call during his gubernatorial campaign for a state law that all federal laws must be approved before being implemented in Minnesota. He's likely to face a crowded GOP field in the Republican-leaning district.

Triple-A roundup: Rizzo goes deep
Cubs infield prospect leads Iowa to win over Round Rock
By MiLB.com Staff | April 8, 2012 8:13 PM ET
A pitchers' duel best described Nashville's 1-0 win over host New Orleans. Sounds starter Brian Baker (1-0) pitched five one-hit scoreless innings, while Zephyrs starter Tom Koehler allowed an unearned run on one hit and three walks over six frames. Martin Maldonado's fifth-inning sacrifice fly brought home the game-winner.
A slugfest was carried out in Omaha, where the Storm Chasers beat Albuquerque, 17-11. Seven of Omaha's nine batters recorded multi-hit games, including veteran catcher Max Ramirez, who smacked a grand slam. Three different Isotopes went deep, including veteran Jeff Baisley, who did so twice.
Shelby Miller's Triple-A debut in Memphis didn't live up to expectations. The Cardinals' No. 1 prospect gave up four runs on seven hits over three innings in the Redbirds' 8-1 loss to Oklahoma City. Brett Wallace homered and Jordan Lyles (1-0) fanned five over six strong innings to lead the victorious RedHawks.
Sacramento left Las Vegas in the dust, 10-3. Rehabbing first baseman Daric Barton smacked a grand slam to help the River Cats to an early and -- it turned out -- insurmountable 5-0 lead.
Fresno topped Tucson, 4-1, getting a solid outing from Andrew Kown (1-0). The starter allowed a run on four hits over five innings, and his reliever, Travis Blackley, was even better: He struck out five Padres and allowed only three baserunners over the game's final four innings.
Top Angels prospect Mike Trout reached base three times and scored three runs in Salt Lake's 8-2 win over Tacoma. Trout is batting .500 (8-for-16) through four Triple-A games. Bees' sluggers Kole Calhoun and Hank Conger hit home runs. In defeat, Guillermo Quiroz and Luis Jimenez smacked solo shots for the Rainiers.
Colorado Springs battled host Reno to a 5-2 decision. Sky Sox second baseman DJ LeMahieu led off the game with a home run and, like teammate Matt McBride, notched a three-hit game.
In International League action, Chris Archer (1-0) fanned eight over six innings in his season debut en route to Durham's 7-4 win over Gwinnett. The Rays prospect allowed a run on two hits and three walks. Ernesto Mejia and Christian Marrero hit home runs for the Braves.
Three Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hurlers -- starter D.J. Mitchell and relievers Manny Delcarmen and Jason Bulger -- combined on a one-hit shutout in the Yankees' 10-0 drubbing of Syracuse. Mitchell yielded the lone hit and struck out four over five innings. Veteran Jack Cust led the lineup by singling in each of his four at-bats and driving in four runs.
Indianapolis ran away from Toledo, 8-2. Top Pirates prospect and leadoff man Starling Marte went 2-for-5 to raise his early-season batting average to .308. Indianapolis starter Brad Lincoln (1-0) struck out six over five one-run frames.
Columbus came back to score four eighth-inning runs and upset visiting Louisville, 7-4. Starting pitcher Scott Barnes struck out seven over six one-hit innings, while catcher Matt Pagnozzi plated three runs.
Norfolk rallied for seven fifth-inning runs and finished off host Charlotte, 7-3. Four different Tides swingers recorded multi-hit games, including Ryan Adams, who doubled twice and collected two RBIs. Knights left fielder Greg Golson doubled three times in four at-bats and scored twice in the loss.
Adam Loewen, Matt Tuiasosopo and Val Pascucci all cleared the fence in Buffalo's 5-3 victory over Rochester. Pascucci's eighth-inning solo shot broke the game's then 3-3 tie. Bisons reliever Daniel Herrera contributed two scoreless innings, the eighth and ninth, extending the bullpen's scoreless streak to begin the season to 14 frames.

text: Posted January 10, 2013 Two men seen walking down a Portland street armed with assault rifles told police they were exercising their Second Amendment rights and hoping to educate the public on gun rights. Several calls were made to 911 on Wednesday afternoon, with alarmed residents reporting two men with guns strapped to their backs walking through the area of Southeast Seventh Avenue and Spokane Street in Portland's Sellwood neighborhood. When police arrived on the scene, they found two 22-year-old men carrying rifles openly on their backs. The two were also holding valid concealed handgun licenses in Oregon, according to Fox affiliate KPTV. The men reportedly told officers that they were seeking to educate onlookers about their Second Amendment rights. "Exercising my rights with a rifle to try to decrease the demonizing of peacefully exercising your rights in public," one of the men, who declined to release his full name, told the station. Officers said carrying firearms openly is legal in Oregon and carrying a concealed gun is legal with a valid license, according to the station. But doing one or both may generate 911 calls and possibly tie up resources that are needed for a real emergency. One of the men told the station that he hoped people would approach him and talk to him, instead of calling police. more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Flag bassist Dave Klein quits
Listen to Black Flag on iHeartRadio
The ever-shifting Black Flag lineup is changing once again. Bassist Dave Klein has confirmed via Facebook that he will no longer be playing with the hardcore icons, explaining that he's decided to return to his other punk band, They Stay Dead.
Post by Dave Klein.
The news comes not long after Black Flag named manager Mike Vallely the band's new frontman. He replaced Ron Reyes, who was fired onstage mid-concert back in November.
Vellely recently told "Rolling Stone" that a new Black Flag album is in the works, and the band intends to hit the road again this year in hopes of making up for last year's underwhelming comeback.

HOUSTON, TX -- FreshBrew Vending has acquired Tri-Cities Vending (Beamont, TX) expanding the geographical reach of its Houston-based operation.
Fresh Brew Vending, founded in 1997, serves eight counties in the Houston area and stakes its claim as the city's largest independent full-service vending company.

"FreshBrew Vending is renowned in the Houston market for utilizing all the industry's latest technology in order to maximize automation of our products," Weyel added. "We look forward to working with all of Tri-Cities' employees as we enhance our operational offerings to our new client base."

Often, if your fondant is drying out, you can soften it by kneading in vegetable shortening. Start with spreading a small amount on the countertop or surface you will knead on, then place a small amount on your hands; then knead until the fondant is softened and smooth. It may be necessary to add additional shortening, a small amount at a time.

Google is one of my best friends. She is always there when I need her. Always seems to know what I'm looking for and always has an answer. Having an 11-year-old, I get asked a lot of questions, and when I don't know the answer, I say, "Google it!"
But what does Google really tell me? Google tells me I have to choose an option below and see if that is the exact information I was looking for; if not I hit the back button and click on the next choice, and so forth. It's easy, somewhat time effective and usually helps me find what I'm looking for. But lately, for some of the questions I've been asked my response has been, "Bible it!"
If you want to know something or have a question, open your Bible and Bible it. This book has all kinds of information in it. It will tell you what you need to do, how to do it and when to do it. It will tell you not to worry about what you will eat or what you will wear; He will provide your needs. The Bible will help you determine where to spend your money and how to spend your time. I think that just about sums up the detail of my everyday life. What I'm wearing to work, what I'm going to do, how much money I can spend and what's for supper. Done!
Don't get me wrong, I love Google. I still use her every day, but so many of the questions in today's world can be answered if we used the Book that has all our answers that so many have depended on all their lives. God's Word promises good, for those who believe.
I think we Christians used to be the majority, but I don't believe that to be the case anymore. We get so down on our world and wonder what has happened. Well the world hasn't done anything, we have. We have changed our world and shaped it into what we think would make it better for us— what makes things easier, what gives us more time to do what we want to do.
Yes, some advances have been beneficial like indoor plumbing, electricity, technology, medicine—all good improvements to our society—but others not so much. We must make sure our advances stay aligned with the Word of God. We have strived to make our world a better place, but are we really making it better? And, for whom?
I read an article the other day about things that are most harmful to our children today. First on the list were vaccines. According to some study, vaccines lower a child's immune system leaving them more susceptible to asthma, ADHD, etc. Color and dyes in our food can cause behavioral problems in children. Preservatives are said to be harmful to the growth and development of children.
Yet, we are so busy with our lives; we complain about food and obesity but we continue to live off drive-thru restaurants who help feed our bad habits The more we think we need and the more we think we have to have, the more our children will suffer. And you wonder why the rate of obesity in our children is at an all time high.
Kids today are couch potatoes and just don't know how to play. Ask an 11-year-old if she has ever made a mud pie. Ask him if he knows what kick the can is. Ask them what they do with their time and they will tell you—video games, texting, watching YouTube and surfing the 'Net. When I was growing up there were days I didn't come in the house except to eat, shower and sleep. And guess what? I turned out okay! (Some may disagree!)
My husband and recently upgraded our cell phone to a new model. Did we know how to use it? Of course not, so who did we give it to? Our 11-year-old daughter. Within minutes she knew just about everything there was to know about operating the smart phone.
This got me thinking, and I came up with an exercise to do with my kids at our church's youth meeting the other night. I set up three stations. At one of the stations I had a couple of smart cell phones. The kids had to figure out how to take a picture with one phone and send to the other, and vice versa. Another station consisted of a set of flat washers, lock washers, nuts and bolts; they had to assemble them. The third station was the Bible. I had three verses written down and they had to look the verses up and read them.
The kids were in pairs and each person had two minutes to do the task at hand and then switch. Each pair had a total of four minutes to assemble, four minutes to take pictures and send and four minutes to look up three verses. Guess which was the easiest for them. Yes, the phone, taking pictures and sending was the easiest task for them. Why? Because that's what they do all day. They are experts in the field of phones. Not one pair of kids could look up all three Bible verses in four minutes. If they could have Google'd it, they might have had a chance!
Kids learn what we teach them. Our generation is consumed with technology and those things that make life easier. The reason the kids couldn't find the verses in the allotted time was because
- Their parents probably couldn't do it; what kids see they do
- They don't consider the Bible a part of their every day life, and
- The world tells them they don't need it. They think they have the world in the palm of their hands.
It's frightening to see the troubles these children are facing today. And I'm afraid it's only going to get worse. We as parents must intervene and show our children the life God intended us to live. If we don't teach them the world will. So I ask you next time you don't know the answer to a question, that can be found in the Bible, don't Google it — Bible It!!

Hi friends,
I have designed one website & I have my email id with the domain name. Now I want to login in gmail with that email id or whatever emails I get that should be come into gmail account. Can any one help me to configure this.
Can you be more clear on what you want? Are you saying you got an email like firstname.lastname@example.com and you want to forward emails to your GMail account?
You can either redirect you emails to Google, as grannygooat says, or you can set things up so that your MX records point to Google, and receive and reply to emails with your own domain name while using GMail:
If you are using cPanel to manage your website then you can set your gmail address as forwarder for your website email address so that emails send to your website email address can directly forward to your gmail address.
Some hosting companies also provide a Google Apps connector/tool to make this easier
could you tell me what the name of that connector/tool of google apps..?
We wrote ours in house and just called it Google Apps.
Ok, No one is understanding Your question. Ok i am going To tell you the solutionFirst login in Your cpanel add a forwarder email@example.com >>> Your gmail email address.Now login To your Gmail >> (At Top) settings >> accounts>> Add another email address.Now you will receive a mail which will be in your gmail. Just verify that . Now you can receive and send emails directly from gmail To your own branded email address. and You can Login in Your gmail account with your own branded email.
Hope it will help You. any more problem related this then PM me or write here.
Hi diam0nd. That's interesting. I've seen the add another account option in Gmail, but wasn't sure what it was for. I thought it was for other Gmail addresses. Just to clarify: I know you can forward copies of branded emails to your Gmail address. But if you then set up that branded email as a second address in your Gmail account, does that mean you can answer emails from that branded account?
You can use gmail apps buisness which is really helpful for you.first go to google apps then verify your mail account with domain name then just activate it so simple way.
Yes, thanks, I know about that option. I was just wondering if its an option with regular Gmail, which seemed to be implied above.
Yes you can send and receive emails from branded email addresses to your GMail account (I have about 5 going into mine) - you can even set up different signatures for each address.
If you send from that address through Google's SMTP servers, the email sent says it was sent from firstname.lastname@example.com on behalf of email@example.com which can be a little confusing for people. You can use your own SMTP server here though and then it will just be from firstname.lastname@example.com as normal.
Thanks masm50. That link is interesting—yet another version by Google. Man, how many pages do they have on this subject?
Does this just apply to sending from your email client (like Outlook) or if you are sending mail through the GMail interface too?
when you configure your webmail, you get an option of redirecting and managing mails from your personal account. You can go with this option and enter your gmail address there.

Was $99.95 NOW $49.95
This is the chaise lounge cover made of the same superior cotton as the renowned Hammacher Schlemmer Turkish robe. Imported from Turkey's Denizli region, a global textile center renowned for producing cotton with exceptionally long-staple fibers, the terry fabric is uncommonly soft, plush, and readily absorbs moisture. The cover provides a sumptuous resting place after a swim or while sunning yourself and, unlike beach towels that require frequent adjustment and droop sloppily, it blankets the entire chaise neatly and stays in place with elastic corner straps. The backing is made of the same cotton in a thirsty quilted waffle weave that wicks away moisture. Two side pockets keep cell phones, books, and sunscreen handy, and an attached pillow provides neck support. Machine washable. White. 78" L x 24" W x 1" D. (3 lbs.)

Great product for the pool
By Mike
from Indian Wells, CA
Best Uses
Instead of the sticky surface of chaise covers, this cotton surface is comfortable and absorbent. The pillow is comfortable and the side pockets are sort of convenient but would not be necessary.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

ALL that to say that I have been meaning to post this for the last three weeks or so, and time keeps somehow getting away from me (apparently I didn't learn my margins lessons very well). We want to put together baskets for babies/kids in the CICU at CHOA again this year. But I dont have time to pour out my heart and tell y'all just how deeply I feel about this. SO I am literally copying and pasting this from last year. I hope you guys will be just as excited to help out again this year . . . We heard from nurses and doctors last year that the patients and their families were really able to enjoy the baskets we put together (I'm including a list of what we put in the baskets last year, so you can have an idea of what you might want to help contribute).
It's almost Thanksgiving. I know, I can't believe how fast time is flying either. But this year especially I am so aware of just how much we have to be thankful for. Caden is home with us. That sweet little face is getting chubbier by the day, and the feeding tube is out of his poor little nose. I am beyond thankful for both my little sweethearts. And for our new home, our ministry, and our family and friends. . . But I also recognize that even while Caden was in the hospital, even while his heart was fighting to beat, we still had so much to be thankful for. The amount of support, love, encouragement and prayers we had while we were in the hospital . . . it literally brought us to tears of gratitude on a daily basis.
We've realized, however, that not everyone with little ones in the hospital has people sending them itunes gift cards, money for parking, making them food, cleaning their houses . . . Beyond that, I can scarcely begin to imagine spending the holidays at my baby's bedside in the CICU.
Because we are thankful, and because we want to pass along some of the encouragement and love y'all showered us with during Caden's hospital stay . . . we are planning something fun for families in the CICU this holiday season. We want to put together gift baskets/bags/what-have-you for each child (and their family) in the CICU. We spoke with CHOA and they said they are staffed for 14 beds, can hold up to 27 children, but at their busiest usually have 18-20 kids . . . So we want to put together 20 bags.
What we want is your help. We would love for y'all to be a part of what we're doing. Whether it's by contributing ideas for what to include (especially from my fellow heart-parents - what would you have wanted when you were in the hospital?), money contributions, or if you have something specific you'd like to donate for us for the bags (maybe you make something like baby hats or dolls etc).
I'm always kind of nervous about doing stuff like this, because I'm afraid that no one will respond. But we feel led to love these families, who are undoubtedly facing some of the hardest moments you can imagine. And if a simple act of love and kindness can point them to Jesus, then I feel like it's something we desperately want to be a part of. So please humor me by at least contributing some ideas for us!
We are so excited to give back, to honor Caden's days in the CICU, and to thank you for all you have done for us and our family. And also to show those who loved and cared for Caden how thankful we are for the work they do day in and day out. I really think this will mean a lot to the families who have to spend the holidays in the hospital, I know that we couldn't have been more grateful for every single note, prayer, gift, and encouraging word. Seriously, they completely carried us through each day, and I dont think we would have made it without them.
If you'd rather email me ideas, or want an address for sending donations, you can reach me at Becca1612 at hotmail dot com.
We are going to get $5 Starbucks gift cards for ALL the nurses working on Christmas (both day and night shift).
I thought I'd include a list of everything we're planning on putting in the baskets because several people had offered to put together a basket. We are going to deliver these on December 23rd, so if you want to put together a basket, just let us know before then sometime!
- Nice journals and pens (so parents can write, journal how they're feeling, write down medical details, questions for the doctors etc).
- Gum, mints (you dont always want to leave your baby's bedside to go brush your teeth, but also want to talk to the drs and nurses without scaring them) . . .
- Small packets of tissue
- Water bottles
- Packaged snacks (granola bars, crackers etc) or homemade goodies
- Gift cards (there are several restaurants etc nearby: starbucks, chickfila, panera bread, doc chey's, chipotle, and domino's are neaby chains, and there are also some local places right near the hospital - Rise n' Dine, Bad dog taqueria . . .)
- Gas cards (you drive back and forth a lot!)
- Travel-sized things of shampoo, body wash, lotion, etc.
- Hand lotion (you wash your hands constantly so they get super-dry)
- Small things of laundry detergent (if you stay overnight at the hospital, it's nice to be able to do your laundry)
-Antibacterial gel (have to be extra careful about germs!)
-Parking passes for CHOA

As our leaders in Washington, D.C., consider an economic stimulus package that will provide much-needed funding for the construction and rehabilitation of the nation's infrastructure, public officials at every level must make certain that funds are used in the most sustainable and cost-effective manner. Put simply, our infrastructure needs to stand the test of time, be environmentally friendly and make the most of limited dollars, while stimulating the economy through job creation.
Concrete is a key ingredient of the roads and highways, bridges, dams, schools and other public buildings and sewer and water treatment projects that make up our essential infrastructure. Concrete is also an integral component of affordable, sustainable and economically sound infrastructure construction and rehabilitation.
To heighten state and local decision makers' understanding of the importance of cement and concrete to green building, and as part of its ongoing commitment to sustainability, the Portland Cement Association (PCA) established the Sustainable Leadership Awards in 2008. This annual initiative identifies and honors government leaders who advance sustainable development in their communities through the use of concrete and cement-based products.
"There are few, if any, construction materials that offer concrete's wide range of sustainable and cost effective benefits," said PCA President and CEO Brian McCarthy. "This award recognizes government officials who share our passion for sustainability and recognize concrete's unrivaled benefits in terms of energy efficiency and durability."
PCA is calling on members of the building industry to submit nominations for the 2009 Sustainable Leadership Awards. Four categories will be recognized. The Leadership in Sustainability Policy Award honors public officials who advance policies that promote the concept of sustainable development by advocating for and promoting the use of concrete and cement-based products in their communities. Other categories include Homes and Residential Building, Non-Residential Building and Infrastructure. These Awards honor public officials who utilize cement or cement-based products to achieve sustainable benefits for projects in each of these categories.
Buildings and activities must have occurred between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2008, to be eligible. The deadline to submit final entries is May 29, 2009. For more information and to access the nomination form, visit www.cement.org/SustainableLeadership.
2008 Sustainable Leadership Award Winners In 2008, winners from Fort Worth, Texas; Glendale, Ariz.; Chicago, Ill.; Leawood, Kan.; Hancock, N.H.; Salem, Ore.; Dallas, Texas; and Lubbock, Texas, were recognized for using new innovations and technologies that resulted in immense environmental benefits and cost savings.
Pervious Concrete
The Park and Ride facility in Glendale, Ariz., represents the largest use of pervious concrete in the Southwest today, with more than 140,000 square feet. The lack of water resources and arid climate made it essential that this large structure allow for total drainage of rainfall to replenish the ground water aquifers. Pervious concrete also alleviates the major concerns of urban heat island effect and contributes to effective stormwater management, considerations taken into account when the City of Leawood, Kan. built its I-Lan Park parking lot using pervious concrete.
Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs)
Both Salem, Ore., and Lubbock, Texas, have emerged as leaders in constructing energy-efficient, disaster-resistant concrete homes using ICF technology. These projects not only provide safe and comfortable homes for Lubbock families and Salem seniors, but ICF home residents also see a dramatic savings on monthly heating and cooling bills.
Full-depth Reclamation (FDR)
Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas, and Hancock, N.H., have used concrete to reconstruct nearly 500 lane miles of roadways - representing a savings of more than 40 percent per lane mile from traditional repair of failed asphalt roads - and drastically reducing road repair debris in landfills.
Urban Environmental Initiatives
In Chicago, Ill., the "Chicago Green Homes" program encourages residential builders, developers and homeowners to use technologies, products and practices that will build or refurbish homes in ways that save energy, dollars and the environment. Thanks to the "Green Roof Grant" program, Chicago is home to more than 200 green roofs, covering 2.5 million square feet, more than any other U.S. city. The city's "Green Alleys" program helps to manage storm water, reduce heat in urban areas, promote recycling and conserve energy.

No matter what you've done in the past, God wants you to worship Him wholeheartedly today and enjoy life to the full. It's possible!
When I stand on a sandy beach looking out over the watery expanse of the ocean, hearing the thunder of the waves, I am awed. Every time, I think, "What a magnificent creation! What a marvelous Creator who holds these waters in the palm of His hand!" Instinctively, I begin to sing "How Great Thou Art." No one hears me as the wind rushes my words to the Lord alone.

Ex-Disney star Lee Thompson Young death certificate released
(TMZ) - Former Disney star Lee Thompson Young died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head ... this according to the actor's official death certificate obtained by TMZ.
TMZ broke the story that Young's body was discovered at his North Hollywood apartment on August 19th, after he failed to show up to the set of his TNT drama "Rizzoli and Isles."
According to the death certificate, Young used a handgun to take his own life.
Young - who rocketed to stardom back in 1998 as the title character in the Disney show "The Famous Jett Jackson" - didn't leave a suicide note.
Young's friends and family are still struggling to understand why the actor shot himself - though some of his family members told law enforcement he suffered from "depression issues."
Young was 29.

Henri Matisse
The Green Pumpkin
Henri Matisse
French, 1869-1954
The Green Pumpkin, ca. 1916
Oil on canvas
80 x 64.5 cm (31 1/2 x 25 3/8 inches)
Anonymous gift 57.037
The view from Matisse's window in the Paris suburb of Issy-les-Moulineaux provides a backdrop for a green pumpkin on a red surface whose corner design suggests one of the textiles he was known to collect. Part still life, part landscape, the painting's motifs oppose the geometry that balances the composition. Windows were among Matisse's favorite subjects and served as the means to order foreground shapes while framing the image outside. Here he used firm, dark outlines to graph the window's ledge and mullions and to emphasize the curved lines of the pumpkin's form. Within these contained spaces, Matisse employed a palette of complementary autumnal hues and toned their brilliance with alternating bands of grey that suggest atmosphere and distance.

Sheriff's Gang Detectives Arrest Suspect After Foot Pursuit
Orcutt - February 11th, 2014
Detectives with the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Gang Enforcement Unit apprehended a suspect this morning, February 11, following a foot pursuit in Orcutt near the city of Santa Maria. 28-year-old Nicholas McCloud of Santa Maria was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance, resisting arrest and grand theft of a bicycle.
McCloud, who has a gang affiliation, was the subject of a gang and narcotics investigation. He was spotted by a Sheriff's Gang Enforcement Unit Detective walking near his residence in the 3100 block of Courtney Drive. When Sheriff's Detectives attempted to make contact with him, McCloud took off running and a foot pursuit ensued. McCloud jumped over fences and through backyards in an attempt to evade authorities and at one point stole a bicycle from a residence. Joe Nightingale Elementary School was placed on a brief lockdown while Sheriff's Deputies chased the suspect. About five to ten minutes after the pursuit started, Sheriff's Detectives apprehended McCloud on the front porch of a residence on the corner of Dickson Drive and Vineland Drive near the school.
McCloud was found to be in possession of a replica handgun and methamphetamine. He was transported to a local hospital for medical clearance and then booked at the Santa Barbara County Jail.
Following the arrest, Sheriff's Detectives served a search warrant at McCloud's residence and arrested four people at the home for being under the influence of drugs. One of the individuals was also arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia.

Gamboa succeeding with flutterball
Orioles right-hander redefining himself with oddest of pitches
By Ashley Marshall / Special to MLB.com | June 12, 2013 9:18 PM ET
Eddie Gamboa has found stability on the mound by redefining himself. Ironically, that constancy has been born out of the most unstable of pitches -- the knuckleball.
Gamboa (2-4) scattered three hits and three walks while striking out six batters over seven innings in the Double-A Bowie Baysox's 6-0 win over the host Reading Fightin Phils.
"I felt great. It's one of those things where the knuckleball is so new to me, I was trying to mix in the knuckleball with my conventional stuff," said Gamboa. "[Catcher] Caleb Joseph called a great game and mixed it up pretty well ... You have to have a lot of patience and throw your ego out the window."
Gamboa, who also throws a two-seam fastball, a slider and a changeup, threw 60 of 96 pitches for strikes and fired three wild pitches in earning his first win in four starts.
The 28-year-old used an inning-ending double play to erase a one-out walk to Edgar Duran in the first inning, and he retired the side in order in the second.
It was the third that proved most eventful for the right-hander. Albert Cartwright singled to lead off the inning, stole second base and then got picked off. Andy Gonzalez followed with a walk and advanced to third base on a pair of wild pitches, but Gamboa struck out Tyson Gillies and Tyler Henson to escape unscathed.
The UC Davis product worked around a walk in the fourth and a single in the fifth, but he finished strong by retiring seven of the final eight batters he faced. His seven innings tied a season high, while his six punchouts fell one short of his 2013 high.
"With the knuckleball, you throw so many pitches and get so deep into counts, the defense falls asleep on you so you have to do everything correct to keep them on their toes," Gamboa said. "I had a couple walks today, but not so many that they weren't able to make plays behind me.
"Baseball's a game of stats and I know that if I fall behind, I'm going to get hurt no matter what."
Gamboa's journey through the professional ranks has not been typical. Selected by the Orioles in the 21st round of the 2008 Draft, he has not kept the same role for any extended period of time.
He went 1-7 as a starter in his rookie year for Bluefield, but he pitched exclusively out of the bullpen across three levels the following season. The 2010 campaign saw the 6-foot-2 right-hander start as a closer and finish back in the rotation, and he started, closed and started again in 21 Eastern League games for Bowie in 2011.
Last year, things were equally as convoluted. He began in middle relief for Bowie, then spent three weeks as a spot starter in Triple-A Norfolk. From there, he made two appearances in Class A Advanced Frederick -- once as a starter, the other in long relief -- before returning to the Baysox where he made 12 starts in his final 14 contests of the season.
"It's nice knowing that you will pitch every five days and that they will give you the game ball and that you'll go as long as you can," said Gamboa, who has learned how to throw two speeds of knuckleballs from two different arm slots. "It's nice. For me right now, it helps that I have my conventional stuff to back me up if the knuckleball isn't working.
"I would say I threw it about 40 percent of the time today, that's probably my average. Do I need to throw it more? Absolutely. But tonight was a step in the right direction. The organization wants me to be a knuckleball pitcher who throws a slider and a changeup as opposed to just a conventional pitcher who occasionally throws a knuckleball."
Life as a knuckleballer started great for Gamboa, who fired six hitless innings in his season debut against Harrisburg. Since then, however, he has had his struggles.
He entered Wednesday's start with a 1-4 record and a 4.91 ERA in the 10 games since his gem in the opening series. Among the problems he faced -- typical in the life of a knuckleballer -- was command. He had a 1.36 WHIP, and while he only walked 18 batters over 64 2/3 innings, he also uncorked 10 wild pitches and hit five batters.
Gamboa got the club to buy his catcher a specialized Rawlings knuckleball catchers mitt following complaints their first purchase -- an All-Star knuckleball glove -- was too small.
"I learned the knuckleball from my father [Ascencion] when I was in seventh grade, so [I was] 12 or 13 years old," said Gamboa, who considers himself fortunate to count Phil Niekro as one of the newest contacts in his cell phone. "I would hit him in the kneecap or on the arm with it, but he'd laugh it off and say, 'Throw it again' and that's how I was able to trust it.
"I think he got it from watching Tom Candiotti on the Dodgers, but I'm not sure he really knew how to throw it. Being a stubborn kid, I just wanted to throw hard, but now I'm thankful I have that pitch because I might be out of baseball right now."
On Wednesday, left-hander Jason Gurka worked around a hit and a walk while recording two strikeouts in the final two frames. Joseph homered and plated four runs and right fielder Henry Urrutia reached base safely three times and scored twice.
It was the Baysox's second shutout of the season. They also blanked the Fightin Phils in a 1-0 win on May 28, a game which saw Jake Pettit handcuff Reading's lineup over eight four-hit innings.
Rehabbing a strained quadriceps tendon in his left knee, John Lannan (0-1) allowed a pair of runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out one batter over seven innings for the Fightin Phils.

Next-Generation iPhone Photos Leak; Shows Longer Screen, Metal Backplates

Next-generation iPhone backplates
(Source: 9 to 5 Mac)
Next-generation iPhone frame
(Source: 9 to 5 Mac)
Next-generation iPhone front glass
(Source: 9 to 5 Mac)
The next generation iPhone is expected to make an appearance in the fall along with iOS 6
New photos of the
next-generation iPhone
have hit the web, and it looks like Apple fans have plenty of new changes to look forward to when it arrives.
Earlier today,
9 to 5 Mac
got its hands on the backplates and frames of the upcoming next-generation iPhone. From the images posted, it seems Apple is making some external and internal changes.
As with the iPhone 4 and 4S, the next-generation iPhone will be available in black and white. Both the black and white versions have backplates that are made of metal, with the plastic trim at the top and bottom. The metal antenna is molded into these metal backplates, likely as a way of making a unibody enclosure for stronger, yet thinner and lighter gadgets.
The new backplates and frames also show that the next-generation iPhone will be the same width, but it will be longer. The screen will reportedly be longer with a size of 3.999 inches diagonally and will have a resolution of 1136 x 640.
Other notable changes that are apparent from the backplates and frames are a smaller dock connector, redesigned speaker grills, a new opening between the camera lens and the LED flash (which is where a second microphone may be placed for better audio when recording video), the earphone jack has been relocated to the bottom corner of the iPhone, and the front camera lens has become centered above the earpiece.
It also appears that Apple will not feature edge-to-edge technology in this version of the iPhone, but the possibility of Micro-SIM technology (or maybe even no SIMs at all) is pretty strong. LTE and a better processor are a few other add-ons that are expected in the next-generation iPhone.
The next generation iPhone is expected to make an appearance in the fall along with iOS 6.
In addition to next-gen iPhone spec leaks, it was also rumored last week that Apple will release
a Mini iPad
later this year. The Mini version of Apple's famous tablet is rumored to be 7-inches.
Speaking of Apple prototypes, an
original iPad with two dock connectors
sold on eBay for $10,200 yesterday. Apple never formally released an iPad with two dock connectors, where one was designed for portrait and the other for landscape, but that rare gadget made its way onto eBay for an expensive Memorial Day bidding war.

In this lesson, Joey helps students delve deep into the core elements of Face Reading - the Five Officers. In Face Reading, it constitutes the most important aspect of the practice, as the Five Officers correspond to the five main features of the face. These are the eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and ears. Analyzing these 5 Officers yields tremendous richness and depth in Face Reading.
It was very interesting, I would participate again. I am also waiting for the German translation of the Coaching.
I was totally blown away by Joey Yap's generosity. I have taken classes - too many to count - and to have an offer to share the DYD information and earn some income without fees, percentages, etc., is so alien a concept that I would be proud to share and help others. I was very impressed especially when I compare the teacher to all of the others I have taken courses from. I think I would enjoy learning from Joey Yap and now need to save to attend more classes!

At Home with Soane
Excavations in Italy during the 18th century generated a new interest in representing and documenting (sometimes creatively) antiquity's ruins. François Fouquet (with his father, Jean-Pierre) built plaster models of these monuments with an unrivaled eye for accuracy for European collectors, architects, and even Thomas Jefferson. Sir John Soane, the fastidious Neoclassicist, amassed a small collection of Fouquet models for his London home, including Rome's Pantheon and Athens' Parthenon. On view through Sept. 24.

Local Color
Spaces of the City, a photography exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, examines urbanity and urbanism in living color. Chromogenic prints, ink-jet prints, and cibachromes detail our shifting perspective on the city: as living space, as working space, as theater and spectacle, and as an arena for sublimity and solemnity. Organized by the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography, Spaces of the City is on view until Sept. 5.

Topshop Unique Fall 2012
"We want the girl to be able to walk off the runway and straight into the street," says Kate Phelan, the recently installed creative director of Topshop of her debut outing for Topshop Unique, the brand's hip, higher-end label that falls under her aegis. "There has to be a realness to what we do; that a girl can take it and style it herself." Quite a change, then, from previous Unique collections, which were of a much more theatrical bent, including hippie Californian surfers coasting around hip London neighborhood Dalston, ancient Egyptians at New York's Pyramid Club circa 1986, and a very Maurice Sendakian take on wild animal (fake) fur.
When it comes to Phelan's—and therefore Unique's—definition of real, though, don't think for a second that it reads as anodyne and anonymous. Given that London's style is still the most compelling of any city in the world—there have to be more bloggers shooting outside the shows than editors sitting inside watching them—Topshop has totally grasped that the realness of the street offers a whole new kind of dressing that has a different sense of theater. It's where nuanced ideas of proportion (that would be big over small), utility (the army shirt replaces the parka), and detailing (why does it look right now for a platform to be a thick crepe sole? Because it just does) are born, flourish, and then migrate around the world.
Unique caught the new mood of utilitarian dressing that was coursing through some of the New York shows last week, working it to look oversize, undersize, and extremely strong and compelling. The show opened with sweeping army double-breasted greatcoats in khaki or navy, with chunky, zippered sleeves, and voluminous, layered sleeveless jackets, worn over the likes of a long, pleated leather skirt or a navy ribbed side-zip short sweater-dress. Anything knitted at Unique was a standout, such as a moss-green crocodile-scale-effect sweater that swung away from the body, or a couple in red and in black, traced with a recurring print of red or black small crosses.
Elsewhere, there were perfect, easy jumpsuits (the best ones paneled out of black velvet and silk), a nod to fall's nascent aviator vibe, with jackets that came loose and slouchy and were cut from fluffy shearling, and bib pinafores with knife-pleat skirts spliced with leather, partnered with skinny tanks. It certainly pulsed with a coolness that felt more grown-up than in the past. If all this constitutes real, then tell us where to sign up for a reality check.
