AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Dwight Howard had 35 points and 19 rebounds, leading the short-handed Houston Rockets to a 114-97 victory over the Detroit Pistons tonight.
In one of his best games since joining the Rockets in the offseason, Howard dominated Andre Drummond, Detroit's promising 20-year-old big man, and helped Houston control the game despite the absence of star guard James Harden, who was out with a sprained right ankle.
The Rockets also were without Jeremy Lin, who has been bothered by back spasms, and they lost guard Patrick Beverley to a fractured right hand.
Josh Smith scored 19 points for the Pistons.
It was the most points Howard has scored as a member of the Rockets. He went 13 of 18 from the field.

I know you don't have leftover turkey yet, but I have friends and family members coming for dinner on Thursday so I want to get this posted before I get too busy making food! (I'll pop in on Thanksgiving Day with a special post, but otherwise I'm taking most of the weekend off to spend time with my family.)

---My Top Ten Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes
---50+ Recipes for a Slow Cooker Thanksgiving (Slow Cooker from Scratch)
Low-Carb Green Chile Quesadillas with Turkey and Cheese might be the perfect dish for Thanksgiving leftovers if you want something quick and easy1
An after-Thanksgiving classic is this Leftover Turkey (or Chicken) Casserole with Brown Rice, Mushrooms, Sour Cream, Cheese, and Thyme and this recipe just got new photos, yaay!
For a healthy soup with leftover turkey, try Slow Cooker Turkey (or Chicken) Soup with Kale and Sweet Potatoes.
A recipe that's already a big favorite is this Slow Cooker Lemony Turkey (or chicken) Soup with Spinach and Orzo.
I love Brown Rice Salad with Leftover Turkey, Red Cabbage, and Pecans, and it's loaded with healthful ingredients if you overindulge on the holiday.
Amy's Amazing White Chicken Chili is made with chicken breasts, but you could use white turkey meat to make this amazing chili as well.
I would gobble up leftover turkey if it was used in this recipe of Spicy Whole Wheat Sesame Noodles with Chicken, Green Onions, and Cilantro.
And for sure you could use leftover white turkey meat in this Shredded Chicken Salad with Green Olives, Celery, and Green Onion.
Another casserole option that would work perfectly with leftover turkey is Better-than-Mom's Chicken, Broccoli, and Quinoa Casserole with Creamy Curry Sauce.
For cilantro fans like me, this Leftover Turkey (or ground turkey) and Pinto Bean White Chili with Lime and Cilantro will be a hit. (To make with leftover diced turkey, just add the turkey towards the end of the cooking time.)
Chicken, Black Bean, and Cilantro Soup is one of my all-time favorites that could definitely be made with white turkey meat.
People from Utah might especially like this Leftover Chicken Chopped Salad with Cafe Rio Style Creamy Tomatillo Dressing, which of course can be made with leftover turkey!
This Chicken, Broccoli, and Red Bell Pepper Salad with Peanut Butter Dressing can also be made with leftover turkey.
And you could also use turkey in this West African Chicken and Peanut Stew with Chiles, Ginger, and Green Onions.
For a quick lunch made from turkey leftovers, try these Turkey and Guacamole Quesadillas.
And last but not least, one thing I'll for sure be making on Friday is these Easy Leftover Turkey Pita Sandwiches with Fresh Cranberry Salsa.

VIKING RIVER CRUISES - BEWARE!: Viking Idun Cruise Review by MISTER AVACODO
Overall Member Rating
Destination: Europe - River Cruise
Embarkation: Budapest
1. There is no compensation if the ship breaks down: We were unfortunate to take a 7-day Danube River cruise on the Viking Odin from Budapest to Nuremberg. We sailed on June 16, 2012 Two days later the ship's propulsion system broke down slowing the ship so much that it could not make its advertized schedule for the duration of the cruise. Rather than docking in the remaining advertized ports (Passau, Regensburg and Nuremberg) the ship stopped short of each port and put everyone on buses for the day while the ship continued up river to make up time. The result was a bus tour instead of a cruise, although we did sleep on the ship each night. To make matters worse, the ship's water pump also failed one morning, so we all boarded the buses without the benefit of showers, bathing, etc. Also, the ships in-room entertainment system (TV and music) failed More for several days. Finally, the only passenger elevator on the ship was out of service during the entire cruise. Since we did not get what we paid for, we politely asked Viking for a refund of some of our cruise fare. Viking flatly refused saying it was not their policy to provide refunds (even partial) for botched cruises. This policy is not mentioned in their brochure or passage contract.
2. Closed Passenger Areas: One of the features of the Viking Odin is the "Sun Deck," which is the top deck of the ship advertized as "360-degree view and shaded sitting area." Indeed there is one, and it makes up well over half of the common area of the ship, a nice feature. However, what Viking fails to tell you is that it will be closed for much of your cruise. This is no accident, on the Danube for instance, the Sun Deck is closed for about half the trip in order to allow the ship to clear low bridges. This "fact" is not mentioned by Viking in any of their literature.
3. Dining Restrictions: Viking Odin generally serves three meals a day, but only during very narrow hours. If you don't sit down within 10-15 minutes of the opening bell, you will miss the meal, and there is no buffet or room service whatsoever - not even a PB&J sandwich. Miss a meal, and you don't eat, period. Viking does not tell you this, instead they advertize that you can eat "when and where you like." Not true. If you are used to traditional cruise ship dining, you will be sorely disappointed.
4. Sub-Par Food: Yes, this is subjective but we were not alone in our opinion that the food was marginal, at best. The selections are very limited and poorly prepared. Airline meals are far better.
Bottom line, if you have any prior cruise experience, Viking will be a disappointment. Less

Delaware State and County Boundaries
Three datasets are included: the official state boundary line, the county boundary lines, and the land/shore outline. These geospatial data files comprise the bounding lines relating to the political boundary delineation for the State of Delaware as well as the shoreline taken from the 2002 orthophotos of Delaware.
DGS Cooperative and Joint-Funded Programs
The DGS is, by statute, the state agency responsible for entering into agreements with its counterpart federal agencies, including the U.S. Geological Survey, the USGS Office of Minerals Information (formerly the U.S. Bureau of Mines), and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (formerly the U. S. Minerals Management Service), and for administering all cooperative programs of the State with these agencies. The DGS also works with many in-state and out-of-state partner agencies and organizations.
IS6 Delaware's State Boundaries
One hundred seventy-nine monuments help to mark Delaware's boundaries with Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Although there are only four major boundaries, there are seven boundary lines that make up the confines of the State. They are the east-west boundary, or Transpeninsular Line; the north-south boundary, or the Tangent Line, Arc, and North lines;; the Delaware-Pennsylvania boundary, including the Top of the Wedge Line and the 12-mile Circle; and the Delaware-New Jersey boundary including the 1934 Mean Low Water Line and the Delaware Bay Line. Only the Transpeninsular, Tangent, Arc, North, 12-mile Circle, and 1934 Mean Low Water lines are monumented. The Delaware Bay Line is defined by the navigational
channel. The boundaries described here evolved through long, complex histories (see references). They are based largely on adjudication in England of conflicting claims by the Penns and the Calverts for the Pennsylvania and Maryland colonies.
OFR17 A Guide to Information on Benchmarks in Delaware
To conduct an elevation survey, a surveyor needs a starting point for which the exact elevation above mean sea level is known. These starting points are called benchmarks. State and federal agencies install benchmarks throughout every State, creating a network of elevation points which covers the entire continental United States. These benchmarks are considered to be permanent, and usually consist of a brass, bronze, or aluminum disc about 4 inches in diameter mounted in a cement post or in a drill hole in a permanent foundation. Each benchmark also has the installing agency's name and an identification number stamped into it. In December of 1980 the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) allotted the State of Delaware funds to determine the number and condition of federal benchmarks and other elevation reference control points. The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), contained within FEMA, requires accurate flood surveys of property in flood-prone areas. An extensive and accurate benchmark network throughout the State is needed to help meet these needs.

On July 1, 2014, the United States Supreme Court agreed to review the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals decision in Direct Marketing Association v. Brohl.1 The Court of Appeals held that federal courts lack jurisdiction under the Tax Injunction Act ("TIA") to address Direct Marketing Association's ("DMA") challenge to Colorado's use tax notice and reporting provisions.
Colorado's use tax notice and reporting provisions are imposed on retailers with no physical presence in Colorado who do not collect use tax from Colorado purchasers. These provisions require such retailers to (1) provide transactional notices to Colorado purchasers, (2) send annual purchase summaries to Colorado customers, and (3) annually report Colorado purchaser information to the State.2
DMA filed suit in federal district court to challenge Colorado's notice and reporting provisions, alleging that they violate the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution. The district court agreed with DMA because the notice and reporting provisions are imposed on retailers with no physical presence in Colorado in direct violation of the Supreme Court's holding in Quill Corp. v. North Dakota, 504 U.S. 298 (1992).3
On appeal of the district court's ruling, the 10th Circuit did not address the merits of the Commerce Clause issue because it found that the TIA divested the district court of jurisdiction over DMA's Commerce Clause claims, and also noted that the doctrine of comity provided an additional basis for its ruling.
It is highly unlikely that the Supreme Court will revisit the physical presence substantial nexus standard set forth in Quill in Direct Marketing since the 10th Circuit decision did not address that issue, and instead focused solely on the jurisdictional issue.
While identifying the reason or reasons the Supreme Court granted review of this case is speculative, the Court may be interested in addressing some of the following conclusions reached by the 10th Circuit regarding federal court jurisdiction to hear state tax cases:
Are non-taxpayer parties precluded from litigating state tax cases in federal courts under the TIA? DMA is not a Colorado taxpayer that is directly impacted by the state's notice and reporting provisions, but rather an association of interested persons so impacted. The 10th Circuit found the TIA applicable to non-taxpayer suits based on its interpretation of Hibbs v. Winn4, even though the Supreme Court in Hibbs found that the TIA did not apply.5
Do the Colorado notice and reporting provisions involve the assessment, levy or collection of a state tax that a federal court may not enjoin, suspend or restrain? The 10th Circuit found the Colorado notice and reporting provisions do not impose a tax, but are mechanisms to collect use tax, and such a collection mechanism cannot be restrained by federal courts under the TIA. The 10th Circuit acknowledged that the Colorado notice and reporting provisions were unlike other TIA cases, and the cases cited in support of its conclusions involved plaintiffs concerned with the administration, collection or calculation of their own state taxes, and not the taxes of others. The Supreme Court may want to clarify its statement in Hibbs that the TIA is not a sweeping congressional directive to prevent federal court interference with all aspects of state tax administration.
Does the ability to file a suit for refund in state court constitute a plain, speedy, and efficient remedy for out-of-state vendors to contest the Colorado notice and reporting provisions? Hibbs stated that a plain, speedy, and efficient remedy requires something more than the ability of an aggrieved taxpayer to file suit in state court, but rather a "tailor-made" remedy for taxpayers. The 10th Circuit found such a "tailor-made" remedy available in Colorado since out-of-state vendors could collect the use tax, file a refund claim with the Colorado Department of Revenue ("Department"), then, if the refund claim is denied, file a suit for refund in state court. Alternatively, the 10th Circuit found that such a taxpayer could refuse to comply with the notice and reporting provisions, contest any non-compliance penalties within the Department, and file a suit in state court to contest the penalties if the Department refused to abate them. The Supreme Court may wish to address whether the remedies referred to by the 10th Circuit are consistent with its decision in Hibbs.
When does the comity doctrine apply to deny access to federal courts to challenge state tax laws? In a footnote, the 10th Circuit stated that the doctrine of comity was an alternative basis for denying federal court jurisdiction, citing Levin v. Commerce Energy.6 Levin found that the comity doctrine provides a broader basis than the TIA to deny access to federal courts in state tax cases, and is intended to prevent federal courts from disrupting state tax administration. The Supreme Court may wish to address the scope of comity in state tax cases.
Concluding Remarks It is very difficult to gain access to federal courts to litigate a state tax case. Courts have relied upon a variety of theories to keep state tax cases out of federal court, including the TIA, comity, abstention, and the Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution. Refund suits, injunctive actions, declaratory relief actions, among others, are generally prohibited in federal court if the state offers a plain, speedy, and efficient remedy. While it remains to be seen how the Supreme Court will rule in Direct Marketing, it is highly unlikely that the doors to federal courts for litigants seeking to challenge state taxes will be opened widely.

Sokol: Our love of secrets has a dark side
Why can't anyone keep a secret anymore? Every day, unnamed sources spill the beans, largely consequence-free. "Sources close to the family" share intimate details, "close friends" divulge juicy celebrity tidbits and "anonymous senior White House officials" reveal information gleaned in classified meetings.
These leaks occur with such frequency that I imagine an employee sitting in a West Wing cubicle with a desk plate that reads, "Anonymous Senior White House Official." This guy annoys all non-anonymous staffers with his constant whispering, his obsession with Perez Hilton and his stinky microwave popcorn. He didn't even get furloughed.
With all this secret spilling, I became momentarily business-minded, explaining my brilliant idea to Hubby.
Me: "You know what I could do? Collect and manage secrets."
Hubby: (stops shaving)
Me: "I'm onto something, right? When the time is right, I'll leak the secrets to the press."
Hubby: "That's already been done."
Me: (crestfallen) "Man, all the good ideas have been taken."
Hubby: "It was called WikiLeaks. It wasn't such a good idea."
Me: "Oh. It was a great idea if you want to live in an embassy. Or an airport." (wins conversation)
Hubby: (shakes head, resumes shaving)
There is a reason that all these blabbermouths don't get fired. Most have been told to squeal like a pig. They're either floating political ideas to gauge public reaction or leaking new products to generate buzz among consumers. Think Apple and Microsoft.
Attention-addicted celebrities "accidentally" leak nude photos or ask their cohorts to disclose (either true or false) news of impending weddings, pregnancies and divorces. Some "secrets" are simply fabrications, as evidenced by the number of magazines that have touted that Jennifer Aniston is pregnant (with twins! triplets! kittens!). Americans are still eager to buy into the tales.
Those who disclose real secrets seem to be disgruntled employees, whistle-blowers and OMG-DID-I-TWEET-THAT? fools (think Carlos Danger).
To be fair, keeping secrets (especially dark ones) can be harmful to our health. Researchers have found that immediate relief can come from writing secrets in a journal or on paper that is then destroyed.
Women, researchers concluded, keep a secret for roughly 47 hours, a number that decreases when alcohol is involved. Personally, that seems like an awfully long time. Forty percent of the 3,000 women included in the study thought revealing a secret to someone who didn't know the secret holder was acceptable.
Men likely blab just as much, but our ideas are skewed thanks to all those magazine headlines that scream, "Secrets Men Keep from Women" and "What Husbands Don't Tell Their Wives."
Alas, the days when a handsome president can slyly slip away with a breathless, voluptuous screen star are long gone. We are a nation that loves telling and hearing secrets, and that means we need to be prepared. After all, secrets are what kept hope alive when Elvis "died" and when astronauts "landed on the moon" and when Lance Armstrong won the Tour de France "drug-free." Secrets kept us from panicking when those aliens landed at Area 51 and the Illuminati brought down Wall Street.
It prompts the question (cue Jack Nicholson): Can we handle the truth?

After two days carrying out work sanctions, workers at the Dimona nuclear plant agreed Tuesday to return to their jobs, after receiving a letter from top officials saying that the sanctions could potentially damage the plant, Channel 10 reported. The workers have agreed to halt sanctions – for the time being, union officials said.
Workers began their sanctions on Sunday, as they demanded raises and better working conditions in upcoming contract negotiations. Workers blocked the main access road to the site on Sunday, keeping out suppliers and outside contractors who had come to work on specific projects. Dozens of trucks and vehicles lined the highway outside the facility's compound, eventually turning back the way they came.
The letter from Dimona director, retired IDF General Udi Adam, said that he and the site's management "were sorry that you were using sanctions and strikes to achieve your goals, as they are damaging to the proper operation of the nuclear research facility. If there are any difficulties I would seek to resolve them through negotiations."
In the letter, Adam hinted that management would take over the running of the facility if sanctions continued. "Management is responsible for the research facility," he wrote, "and in any case of sanctions, work stoppages or strikes, management will operate according to procedures required for the safety and continued operation of the facility."
Negotiations between workers and the government have been ongoing for months. The workers are demanding that their salaries and work conditions be raised to the same level as researchers in the Dimona plant. They have rejected a number of Treasury offers. Union officials said that while they were ending the sanctions for now, they would return to sanctions by next week if progress was not made in the negotiations.
Dimona Nuclear Plant Workers Back on the Job - For Now
After 2 days of work sanctions, workers at the Dimona nuclear plant agreed to return to their jobs, after top officials cited risk to the plant.

Well it's about time someone reinvented the proverbial wheel of sensory stimulation baby videos, and in this case that someone is award-winning graphic designer and dad Rolyn Barthelman, creator of the ingenious Wee See collection of DVDs. Let's just say I popped it in — by myself — and immediately started smiling.
The two 30-minute videos are made up of imaginative, high contrast animations of basic black and white shapes, accompanied by terrific scoring by Tim Deluaghter of The Polyphonic Spree. It's all very MOMA store, if you know what I mean. Or as they call it, "part art installation, part pacifier." But in fact it makes perfect sense from a developmental standpoint; in other words, if you're going to plop your baby in front of the tube for a few minutes while you get your first shower in days, this series is a good bet.
I also like the silent flashcard mode for when you want to control the pace and sound for younger babies- – or even older kids starting to grasp basic geometric concepts.
Wee See is artful, it's smart, and when your 9 month old outgrows it, save it until he's a
pothead college student and he'll enjoy it all over again. (No, I'm kidding! Don't send me hate mail.) –Liz
Find the Wee See baby DVDs online through the Wee See World store where you can also get a sneak peek.
Congratulations to Jeannine L, lucky winner of a set of Wee DVDs and a Wee See tote!

Live at Reading presents the band at its post-Nevermind peak. Watching Kurt Cobain radiate so much life is bound to trigger some tears.
Hints of this could be heard on the live comp From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah, but this is a complete document of Nirvana in full flight and one of the greatest live rock & roll albums ever.
However delayed Live at Reading's official release is, thankfully fans can finally rejoice and celebrate its long-awaited arrival. Few live shows are able to communicate a band's heart and soul the way Nirvana's is brilliantly encapsulated here.
Live at Reading effectively grants you side-stage access to the band in their mosh-pit-stoking, drum-set-toppling, putting you as close to the action as the band's mysterious friend Tony, who's seen flailing onstage throughout the show like an epilpetic Bez.
FilterSongs like these are why Nirvana was king and this show proves why the band was peerless. Suddenly Nirvana is everything to me all over again. [[Holiday 2009, p. 92]
Live at Reading is a corrective to all that [i.e. journals, Guitar Hero], a reminder that nothing so trivial could ever sully music as irreducible as this.
The official release of Nirvana's headlining performance at the 1992 Reading Festival feels at once indescribable and quaint.
Reading is a far cry from pop-chart fodder. And while the jarring howl of Cobain's Fender and his gravelly delivery may alienate the more nonchalant corners of their fanbase, these ferocious renditions will be a godsend to the dyed-in-the-wool Nirvana following.
Nirvana's headlining gig at the 1992 Reading Festival looms infamously large because of (a) that amazingly creepy photo of Kurt getting wheeled onto the stage looking like Norman Bates' mother, and (b) the show was a mind-blower--sloppy indie rock as stadium-filling psychedelic punk.
New DVD/CD combo Live at Reading rides the wave of mutilation that was Nevermind, but its best moments dump Bleach, the busy shoot pausing to catch Cobain picking out debut detention "School."
Nirvana launch into a 90-minute onslaught of fugly-beautiful grunge-guitar fury.
This Reading appearance-released for the first time on the CD/DVD package "Live at Reading"-captured the trio's skill at turning simple power chords into some of the most memorable rock anthems of the '90s.
It's a monster of a concert film in any case, with a band at the height of its powers--and not yet totally sick of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit.'
So it's good, but given the large amount of quality Nirvana concert stuff out there, does Live At Reading really have much by way of USP? Probably, yeah, if only because it's the band's sole full electric gig commercially available.
This is a fierce live performance by a band who didn't always manage to hold things together onstage. It catches Nirvana at maximum intensity, aware of, but not disabled by, the contradictions that tormented Cobain and would eventually tear him asunder.

"Anthem Magazine'"s two-day pool party is returning to Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival to offer weary concertgoers a little R&R and break from the desert heat with The Anthem Lagoon!
Coachella takes place at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif., April 16-18 with Anthem Lagoon! going down Saturday and Sunday (April 17-18) from 12-6 p.m.
Yahoo Music raved that Anthem Magazine's 2009 party – The Anthem Ranch –was a "a hotly tipped new Saturday Coachella tradition." LA Weekly described last year's event as "the most crowded and crazed Coachella party we might have seen yet" and noted that it was the "winner of the music-mag desert-party death match."
Just because fans are taking a break from the excitement going down on the Coachella stages doesn't mean the music has to stop. In addition to giving fans a place to cool off at its King Of The Jungle-style lagoon, the sixth annual event will feature world-renowned DJs spinning tunes including Sebastian, Breakbot, SO-Me, Peanut Butter Wolf, Classixx, 12th Planet, Heidi, Prince Language, Nervo, Destructo, Playgroup and FiGo as well as many secret guests.

The days of extra-plump variable-rate discounts may be numbered.
A handful of lenders began trimming their variable-rate mortgage (VRM) discounts this week. They've gone from prime minus 0.75% (the average market rate) to prime minus 0.65%, or even prime minus 0.50% in some cases.
To most, these changes have seemingly sprung out of nowhere. Few expected rising VRM rates before the Bank of Canada resumed tightening. Unfortunately, it's happening now and it's beginning to smell of a trend.
So far, four of the top 10 broker lenders have reduced discounts, and others are considering following suit.
Here's a look at what's behind it…
With Canada so married to the U.S. economy, Canadian rate speculators are perpetually glued to U.S. Fed announcements.
Today we had a unique opportunity to watch U.S. Fed chief, Ben Bernanke, hold a scheduled press conference (Fed chairmen never do that). He said he wanted to "add transparency" to the Fed's plans for future monetary policy.
Bernanke made several points of note for Canadian rate watchers. He said:
Subconsciously, we're programmed to think more is often better.
One example of where more is not necessarily better is with the number of lenders a broker advertises.
Brokers often quote relationships with numerous lenders. Just for the sake of illustration, we Googled "…Mortgage Broker" and examined the top five results. Here are snippets from each broker's website:
Canadians' debt levels have made headlines repeatedly over the past few years. People are engrossed with how big our debt burden has grown, and what it means to the economy at large.
On Thursday, Statistics Canada published a new report on how debt is affecting Canadian families. It contains loads of data and below are some of its mortgage-related findings:
Canada recently enacted a new anti-spam law called Bill C-28. It's expected to come into force later this year.
Proponents say C-28 will lighten the spam load on all of us.
At the same time, it could turn many businesspeople into spammers themselves!
As a mortgage broker, for example, it's not uncommon to send out e-mails or newsletters to current or former clients. In some cases, you may not have had contact with a client for years.
If that kind of scenario applies to you, C-28 will change your email habits. For brokers, mortgage specialists and lenders, it pays to know the implications in advance.

In response to uproar about one of its mortgage specialists discrediting brokers, BrokerNews.ca quotes RBC as saying:
"The RBC brand is defined by our clients and partners and we sincerely apologize for the inaccurate information that was presented in the document."
That comes from RBC Public Affairs Advisor Nicole Fisher, in a letter to broker associations. We haven't seen the rest of the letter yet.
Banks have extensive policies governing what their representatives can tell the public. The alleged actions of RBC mortgage rep Corinne Schindler demonstrate why.
Schindler has reportedly been circulating this flyer, which grossly mischaracterizes mortgage brokers in relation to bank specialists. It's a document that demonstrates a stunning lack of knowledge, professionalism and discretion.
The piece, which displays RBC's logo and web address, has gone viral and caused a PR embarrassment at the nation's biggest bank. Incensed brokers from across the country have demanded (2nd link) that RBC retract the misstatements on the specialist's behalf.

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
"Wow, this is some disc! There are so few new major-label productions featuring today's "big" artists--and let's face it, so many of those turn out to be uninteresting--that it comes almost as a shock to note that there really can be a difference when everyone involved lives up to their reputations. Without a doubt, Esa-Pekka Salonen is a great conductor, particularly in contemporary music such as this. He recorded The Rite of Spring previously with the Philharmonia for Sony, and that was a very exciting performance, but this one has just that much more bite and savagery in the Sacrificial Dance, or at the conclusion of Part One. Indeed, the playing of the Los Angeles Philharmonic is pretty amazing throughout, with well-nigh unbelievable clarity in the polyrhythmic complexities of the Entry of the Sage, but also in the gentler washes of color that open Part Two. The Miraculous Mandarin Suite, that other "primitivist" masterpiece, makes an ideal coupling, and the performance is no less splendid. The solo clarinet is appropriately seductive, the entrance of the Mandarin is chilling, and the "chase" fugue speeds along at an impressive clip, rising to an absolutely shattering climax. Including the original version of Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain also was an inspired idea. This bit of musical barbarism is very much the 19th-century forbear of its two 20th-century cousins, and Salonen makes no effort to smooth over its rough edges. It's also fitting for this recording, made in the excellent acoustics of the new Disney Hall, to include a work that featured so prominently in the film Fantasia (albeit in Stokowski's orchestration). Speaking of which, the sound really is superb in all formats, with rock-solid bass and a vividly coherent ensemble perspective that's all the more remarkable considering the level of detail captured. Let's hear it for the A-Team." -Classics Today (10/10)
BBC Music Magazine
I'm not sure... that I've ever heard so much of the Rite's instrumental detail revealed so intricately: the interweaving woodwind of the introduction are exquisitely, indeed eerily sifted, and even in the biggest climaxes there is unusual clarity of texture. The couplings are also attractive - swirling, intermittently thunderous renditions of Musorgsky's original version of Night on the Bare Mountain and the concert suite from Bartók's Miraculous Mandarin ballet...

CoolVines Services & Gift Ideas
The Alhambra Reserva Malbec is made from a single vineyard that's at an altitude of 4000 ft. This extreme terroir yields a wine of wonderful concentration and purity of flavor, which the winemaker preserves by neither fining nor filtering the wine before bottling.
Originally belonging to a family of English origins, Finca Abril's vineyards were planted back in 1922. The age of the vines ensures reduced yields and concentrated flavors in the grapes, while minimalist winemaking in the cellar ensures that the wines stay true to their terroir. Finca Abril is located in "La Consulta" in Valle de Uco, which is situated in the mid-west of Mendoza.
The French grape variety Malbec has its New World home in the vineyards of Mendoza, producing red wines of great concentration and intensity in what is by far the largest wine region in Argentina.
The soils in Mendoza are Andean in origin and have been deposited over thousands of years by the region's rivers. These rocky, sandy soils have little organic matter and are free-draining, making them dry and low in fertility. This kind of soil is perfect for viticulture, since vines are forced to work hard for hydration and nutrients and will produce small, concentrated berries instead of leafy foliage. The wines produced from grapes grown on these soils are often highly structured, with firm tannins, and have a distinct minerality that is often attributed to the soil.
Altitude is another one of the defining characterisitics of Mendoza terroir. The strip of vineyard land that runs along the base of the Andes is between 2600 and 3900 ft above sea level, and moderates the hot, dry climate of the region. Warm, sunny days followed by cooler nights slows the ripening of the grapes and naturally extends the growing season while producing rich, ripe flavors. Irrigation is provided by the many rivers criss-crossing the region, and warmer drier harvets allow for picking based on ripeness rather than the fluctuations of the weather, which in turn reduces vintage variation and contributes to the reliable, consistent wines of their iconic wines.

WASHINGTON – DIII News has once again named Jason Banzhaf an honorable mention All-American it was announced on Monday. This marks the third consecutive season Banzhaf has earned this honor from DIII News after he recently wrapped up a terrific career for the Cardinals.
The 2008 Landmark Conference Rookie of the Year, Banzhaf led the Cardinals in scoring (18 ppg) and rebounding (9 rpg) in 2010-11. He also led the conference in rebounding and ranked third in scoring, fourth in field goal percentage and 11th in free throw percentage.
For his efforts this past season Baznahf received his fourth selection to the All-Landmark Conference Team and third straight All-Region accolade. Banzhaf was a three-time first-team All-Conference honoree.
Banzhaf scored in double figures in every game but one this season, topping out with 31 points in CUA's victory over Southern Maine in the championship game of the CUA-Residence Inn Greenbelt Classic on January 2. The senior was named tournament MVP for his performance, marking the second time he received that honor in 2010-11. Banzhaf was also named tournament MVP after helping lead the Cardinals to the Allegheny Invitational championship in November.
A native of Livingston, N.J., Banzhaf earned four Landmark Conference Player of the Week honors throughout the season, in addition to a pair of ECAC Player of the Week awards and one selection to the D3hoops.com national team of the week.
Banzhaf registered double digit rebounds in 15 games and his 15 double-doubles ranks 15th in America. His top rebounding performance came vs. Scranton in late January when he pulled down 16 caroms.
Banzhaf concluded his career with 1,819 points, good for third all-time at CUA, while his 879 career rebounds also places him third on the all-time leader board.
DIII News names Banzhaf an All-American for third straight year

Swordfish with Smoked Paprika
One of the best, and easiest ways to prepare swordfish, or any dense, meaty fish is this method by Simply Recipes contributor Hank Shaw. Enjoy! ~Elise
Swordfish is a cornerstone food throughout the Mediterranean, and this Spanish recipe may be one of the finest ways to cook sword anywhere. The meaty fish, smoked paprika, pine nuts, garlic and parsley all meld into a rich, savory dish that takes you right to the sunny shores of the Costa Brava in Catalonia.
I know what you're thinking: Isn't swordfish endangered? No. Or at least it's not endangered anywhere around the United States. The various fish watchdog organizations all give consumers the green light to eat as much swordfish as they want, provided it was caught in North American or Hawaiian waters. The Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch gives American sword either a "best choice" or "good alternative" rating, depending on how it's caught.
If you've never worked with swordfish, it is dense and meaty. It also has an inedible rubbery skin that must be removed. When shopping for sword, pay attention to the bloodline, that red patch of meat in the steak. It should be red. If it is brown, the fish is old.
Good alternatives to swordfish, if you can't find it, are farm-raised sturgeon, yellowfin tuna or albacore, tilefish, mahi mahi or even shrimp. I often use leopard shark I catch myself, but many commercially caught sharks are not faring well, so I don't recommend you buy shark for this or any other dish.
This is a recipe that comes together very fast, so have everything you need ready.
Serve with crusty bread and either a crisp white wine, a dry rose or a glass of ice cold, very dry fino sherry.
Swordfish with Smoked Paprika Recipe
You will need to use a Roma or other paste tomato for this recipe. Regular tomatoes are too watery.
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 pound swordfish or other firm, white fish
- Salt
- Flour for dusting
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced thin
- 1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
- 2 Tbsp white wine
- 4 Roma or other paste tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 2 teaspoons Spanish smoked paprika
- Black pepper
1 Remove the skin from the swordfish and cut it into cubes. Salt the fish well and dust the cubes in flour. Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan large enough to hold all the swordfish chunks in one layer. Sear them well on at least two sides. Give the first side 1-2 minutes, then sear other sides for 30 seconds to 1 minute each.
2 When the swordfish is cooked, remove it to a bowl and reserve. Add the garlic slices and sauté 30 seconds or so — the second it begins to brown, add the tomatoes, parsley, white wine, pine nuts and paprika. Toss to combine and cook 1 minute, then add the swordfish back to the pan, toss to combine and cook another 30 seconds or so. Serve at once.
Yield: Serves 4.

Intel X25-M SATA 80GB MLC SSD |
Reviews - Featured Reviews: Storage | |
Written by Miles Cheatham | |
Monday, 19 January 2009 | |
Page 4 of 10
Intel X25-M First LookThere is little doubt that at some time in the not to distant future storage devices based on solid state design will literally dominate most venues of the computer market. This bold statement has recently been further validated by Intel entering the SSD market. As we alluded to in the introduction, Intel initially brought two drives to market, the X18-M and the X25-M built respectively on the 1.8" and 2.5" form factors. The initial capacity of these drives was 80 GB and recently a 160 GB version was released. Intel also released an extreme version of the of the their SSD in the 2.5" form factor which is currently only available in 32 GB and 64 GB capacities. The primary difference between the Mainstream and Extreme series of drives is the Mainstream version utilizes Multi-level Cell (MLC) NAND flash memory as opposed to the faster Single-level Cell (SLC) NAND flash memory exhibited in the Extreme edition. When doing a heads up comparison between the SLC and MLC the primary differences lie in the superior write speeds of SLC flash memory with read speeds and access time being approximately the same. A question that has been raised is how did Intel produce an 80 GB and 160GB SSD when current flash memory is primarily available in 32 GB, 64 GB, and 128 GB lots? After doing a bit of research we found that Intel uses 50nm NAND chips which currently store 32 GB or 4GB per chip. By using 20 flash memory chips (2 for each of the 10 channels) you do the math and I believe you'll come up with 80 GB of storage for the X25-M. As you can see in the image below there are ten flash memory modules on front side of the drive along with a 16MB DRAM chip from Samsung to provide the cache. On the rear of the drive you also find ten flash memory modules making a total of the 20 modules we referred to. We also learned that Intel uses its own proprietary designed SATA controller which uses 16 MB of cache and addresses 10 different MLC channels at one time. This is in no small part responsible for the incredible read speeds the X25-M is capable of providing. From a durability standpoint, the Intel X25-M is quite rugged with a solid metal casing. The drive is designed to endure an operating shock of up to 1,000 g over a 5 ms time frame. The one element that sets solid state drives apart from all others is that there are no moving parts and the response time is almost instantaneous. Power consumption is also very low with the drive only demanding 150 mW while in full operation. Intel has provided mounting holes for adapters that accomodate either a horizontal or vertical mounting scheme. |

Read an Excerpt
Thud. Thud. Thud. Books hit the floor all over the fifth-grade classroom, shattering the relative quiet. Brittany Gorman gathered her survival instincts and forced herself not to react. She tightened her grip on the chalk and continued to write the math homework assignment on the chalkboard. This bratty group of kids pulled some kind of stunt every time she substituted for their regular teacher. Today Brittany was determined not to let their misbehavior bother her.
Brittany wrote as slowly as she could. She didn't want to turn around and see the feigned innocence on their faces until she was sure she could face them with a stoic mask in place. There was no doubt that the instigator of this little trick was the class clown who called her "Miss Carrot Top" or "Miss Freckle Face" under his breath, just loud enough that she couldn't miss hearing his remarks. She always pretended not to notice.
Finally, she set the chalk in the tray and glanced at the clock before turning to the group. Some of the students had already retrieved their books, but other books still lay on the floor. She looked at the students, making eye contact with as many of them as she could before speaking. "You have twenty minutes to work on the assignment. If you have any problems, raise your hand, and I'll be glad to help you."
A few snickers drifted through the air, but Brittany chose to ignore those, too. Without making mention of the book incident, she roamed up and down the aisles between the desks. She breathed a sigh of relief as further conflict faded. Despite situations like this, substitute teaching was still the best of all the bad temp jobs she had tried since she'd lost her position as a financial planner. Glancing out the window at the snowy Montana landscape, she prayed that all would go well until the final bell. While she waited for that sound of freedom, she vowed to double her efforts to find a real jobone that didn't involve kids.
Half an hour later, Brittany fled out a side door and searched the school's parking lot for her ride. She spotted her roommate's sporty silver compact car and dashed toward it. She opened the door and hopped in.
Glancing at Brittany, Heather Watson maneuvered her way to the main road, her dark eyes full of curiosity. "You seem to be in a hurry to get away."
Brittany leaned back on the headrest. "What a day! It didn't end soon enough."
"Want to tell me about it?"
"No. I don't want to relive it. I can sum it up in one word. Dreadful."
"That bad?"
"Worse. I'm beginning to think I'm just not good with kids."
"Not true. The kids in the church youth group love you."
"Thanks for your vote of confidence." Brittany smiled halfheartedly. "I guess it's just that one horrible class of fifth graders that drives me crazy."
Heather nodded. "Is your car ready?"
"Yes, but I'm afraid to see the repair bill." Brittany released a harsh breath. "That car is falling to pieces one part at a time. It's a money pit, but without a regular job, there's no way I can buy a new one."
"Well, at least they could fix it."
"I guess I should look on the bright side." Brittany forced a smile. "It's a good thing that today is your day off. Thanks for picking me up."
"No problem." Heather turned onto the street where the car dealership was located. "Are you subbing tomorrow?"
"Not yet, but I could get a call early in the morning. After today, I'm not sure I could bring myself to say yes."
"Then don't. Come skiing with me."
"You know I can't afford to go skiing, especially now with the added expense for my car."
Brittany wished Heather could understand the stress of not having a real job. The need to find steady employment constantly weighed on her mind. And now that she'd broken up with Max, the one reason for staying in Billings no longer existed. She needed to widen her job search.
"I told you that won't be a problem. My uncle Parker pays for everything, even guests. He does this every year for our family on the Martin Luther King holiday weekend."
"I thought I'd met all your dad's siblings. How come I've never met your uncle?"
"Because he's a reclusive bachelor who lives on a ranch about fifty miles from Billings. I call him my mad scientist uncle because he's always working on some kind of invention. We only see him on this ski trip and maybe out at his place on the Fourth of July. And at Christmas. Otherwise, he keeps pretty much to himself on that ranch."
Brittany thought the guy sounded pretty weird, but she didn't want to say anything bad about him. "I'd hate to impose."
Heather gave Brittany a challenging look. "You won't impose. You need a change of scenery, so you can forget about the loss of your job and the breakup with your worthless boyfriend."
Brittany shook her head. "Going on a ski vacation isn't going to help me find a job or make me forget Max."
"Max is very forgettable. You shouldn't waste time thinking about him. You never know. Maybe you'll meet someone who's looking to hire a good financial planner or accountant."
"You are such an optimist."
Brittany was beginning to question her decision to stay in Billings after she'd lost her job, but she had wanted to remain there because of her relationship with Max.
More than ever, she wanted to prove to her parents that she could make the right choices. She had to show them that they hadn't wasted their money on her college degree. That meant widening her search for a good financial job. From the beginning, they'd wanted her to forge her own path rather than follow Max to Montana. Would going home to the Spokane area mean she'd have to admit they'd been right? Could she make the right decision this time?
Giggles floated through the air as Parker Watson entered the kitchen of the six-bedroom, cedar-sided house he'd rented for the annual family ski trip. He relished the sound of harmony coming from Rose and Jasmine, his six-year-old twin daughters, who were having breakfast at the table in the eating area off the kitchen. He stared at the cup of coffee sitting on the counter and wished that somehow a nanny for his girls would appear out of the steam rising from itlike a genie from a bottle.
He was working on a big project that could lead to more medical writing jobs. He was already behind schedule because he'd had to take over the homeschooling duties that had been Jenny's domain. If he was going to give full attention to his work, he had to find a good caregiver now.
He picked up the cup and moseyed over to the table. "Are you girls finished with breakfast? The ski slopes are waiting for us."
Rose took the last gulp of milk, then nodded her head, her dark braids swinging across her shoulders. "I'm done."
"Me, too." Jasmine jumped up from her chair.
As Rose joined her sister, Parker patted each of them on the head. "Then you need to put on your ski clothes."
"We will." Their voices echoed around the vaulted ceiling as they raced for the stairs.
Parker cupped his hands around his mouth. "Don't forget to brush your teeth."
The girls stopped and leaned over the balustrade that surrounded the loft at the top of the stairs. "We won't."
"Sounds like they're pretty excited about today." Delia chuckled.
Parker turned to his housekeeper. "I hope they get along. All I've done the past couple of weeks is break up fights."
"You know it started right after Jenny, Mark and their kids moved away. The girls lost an important person in their lives, and it's upset their whole routine."
"I know, but that doesn't mean they should misbehave." Parker sighed. "I wish Mark hadn't taken that job in Colorado, but I can't blame him for taking a better opportunity. It's tough losing a foreman and the girls' teacher and caregiver all at once. Since I started advertising for a nanny, I've had exactly one inquiry. And as soon as the woman found out that the position was on an isolated Montana ranch, she wasn't interested."
"You know what I've said about that." Delia gave him a no-nonsense lookthe kind she always gave him when she was trying to make a point. "Folks who live closer to the ranch won't have a problem with the location."
"I don't know why you think I'll find a nanny in Stockton. The people in that town have no use for me, and I have no use for them."
Delia's wrinkled face brightened, and she winked. "Heather might know someone. Maybe that friend she's bringing with her?"
"You are such an optimist." Parker rubbed the back of his neck and gave Delia a wry smile before turning his attention to the noisy footsteps on the stairs. "Sounds like the girls are ready. Tell Heather and her friend to head up to the slopes when they get here."
Hours later, Parker stepped into the ski lodge and, as he'd promised Heather minutes before, searched the room for a petite redhead. The color of her hair should make her easy to find. He wasn't looking forward to meeting Heather's friend, but he was doing this to please his favorite niece.
The smell of burgers and fries wafted his way as he walked farther into the Main Lodge restaurant. Finally, he spotted an attractive young woman with bright coppery hair that fell around her shoulders. She sat alone at a table near the wall of windows looking out at the mountain.
Her expression told him she was deep in thought about something that didn't make her happy. He could relate to that look.
He stepped forward. "Excuse me. Are you Brittany Gorman?"
She stared up at him, her appearance still somber. Her light brownish-green eyes held a puzzled look. "Yes. How do you know my name?"
"I'm Parker Watson, Heather's uncle."
"You're Heather's uncle?" The pitch of her voice rose along with her eyebrows.
"I am. Is there a problem?" Parker tried not to frown.
Could she possibly know about his pastseen him on the news when he'd been falsely accused of an inappropriate relationship with one of his high-school students? According to Heather, Brittany had moved to Billings about six years ago, after the scandal had subsided, but that was no guarantee. He knew firsthand how malicious gossip could linger.
Despite being innocent, he'd never gotten his life back. In the beginning, he'd tried to repair his reputation, but the hushed conversations and whispered innuendos had followed him. Frustrated and hurt over the way his former friends and colleagues had turned against him, he'd decided things would be easier if he gave up teaching and kept to himself on the ranch.
She grimaced, a blush creeping up her freckled face. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be so abrupt. It's just that well, I expected you to be older much older."
"So that's why you seemed startled?"
Nodding, she placed a hand over her heart. "When Heather was talking about her uncle, I had this picture in my mind of a man about the age of her father with a salt-and-pepper beard."
Realizing that she didn't know anything about his past, Parker let his relief come bubbling out in a chuckle. "I'm twenty-five years younger than Heather's dad and only seven years older than Heather. She seems more like a cousin than a niece. I figured out a long time ago that I was my parents' 'oops' baby."
"Oh." She looked away, as if his statement had embarrassed her.
He'd probably given her more information than she wanted to know. He had a bad habit of speaking his mind, no matter what the consequences. Better change the subject. "Heather told me you took a ski lesson this morning?"
"Yeah. Where is Heather?"
"Still on the slopes, but she sent me down here to check on you. How did the lesson go?"
Brittany shrugged. "Okay, I guess. I learned how to snow-plow."
"That's a good start. Are you ready for lunch?"
Brittany nodded. "I thought Heather was meeting me."
"She is, but she wanted to do a little skiing with Rose and Jasmine first before the girls did their afternoon thing."
He was out of practice talking with single women who were close to his own age. What did it matter? He wasn't going to see Brittany again after this weekend. Even if she was pretty, he didn't need to impress her. "Do you mind if I join you while we wait for Heather?"
She looked up at him in surprise. "I'm sorry. I should've invited you to sit with me. I don't know where my manners have gone. Please, join me. In fact, I'm glad to have a chance to talk to you. I want to thank you. It's really generous of you to pay for everything, especially since I'm not family."
"Think nothing of it." Parker smiled. He pulled out a chair and sat across from her.
Now what did he say? He hated small talk, especially since he seldom had face-to-face interaction with anyone except the people on the ranch and an occasional family member. It was better for him and the twins to be surrounded by people who supported and accepted them. But in his efforts to shield his girls from malicious gossip, he'd gotten out of practice at making conversation with strangers.
Parker tried to lasso his thoughts, but her cute freckled face had his mind in a dither. Maybe that's why she had him noticing things about her that he shouldn't be noticing at all.
"Heather tells me you live on a ranch."
"Yeah." An invitation to talk about himselfone of his least favorite things to do. When he was with his family, all he wanted to talk about was his girls, but he didn't want to explain to a stranger why he was a bachelor father.
"Do you raise cattle?"
"I'm more of a gentleman rancher."
"A what?"
"I don't actually do any ranching. I only live there."
"Oh." The word was wrapped in curiosity. Hoping to avoid giving her any other information, he ignored her questioning look. "What about you? What do you do?"
Brittany stared at him for a moment, then glanced away toward the windows. Sighing heavily, she looked back at him. "I'm currently a substitute teacher. I lost my real job a few months ago. I tried some temp jobs, but they were short-lived. Then a teacher I know from church suggested that I sign up to be a substitute, but that still makes for a rather unsettled lifenot knowing how much will be in my next paycheck. It's hard to find regular work of any kind."
Parker couldn't help remembering Delia's speculation about Brittany being a prospect for the nanny position. His desperation to find someone to care for his daughters was making him have irrational thoughts. He knew very little about this young woman. "What was your previous job?"
"I worked for a financial-planning company, and they were downsizing. I was the last hired and the first fired." Brittany laughed halfheartedly.
"Any job prospects in your field?" Now Parker knew what had caused her troubled look. He'd like to commiserate, but he certainly didn't want to explain the false accusations that had cost him his job. The unfairness of it all still troubled him.

I had a huge wakeup call when I realized a client was discovering in her analytics that IE8 was still being used by 50% of her Windows users (and she gets a lot of traffic).
So I've been going into all my sites, and fixing border radiuses (with PIE) and box shadows (still can't get this one all the time, but I'll make a post about it later)
One of the things I've noticed is I can't seem to float:right an image in IE-8.
Well, I guess I'm wondering….should I be using float:right to align images right and around text or something else?
Of course float:right; works fine in IE8 (and things look good when I visit your site in IE8 too), so there must be something else going wrong there…
I'm so embarrassed.
I cleared my cache a few times to see if it changed, and it did.
So sorry about that.
IE8 seems to not clear cache unless you do it several times, or maybe it's just my Virtual Box acting up on me.
Thank you so much.
This probably isn't what happened to you, but just a word of advice: careful with CSS PIE. I have used it in sites in the past and it has had the tendency to cause elements on the page to behave strangely.
This reply has been reported for inappropriate content.
As @theacefes says PIE can be somewhat troublesome. I always recommend using it only on the essentials as it does have problems with shadows, especially in responsive design.
I'd recommend using it in moderation only on bits that look broken or absolutely require gradients/radiuses. Shadows ultimately are more visual flair, if you can get away without using them make sure you do.
Keep in mind also that if you do use shadows with PIE make sure to set the background colour of the element because it will otherwise show the shadow underneath the content of the box.
Good idea. It doesn't HAVE to have rounded edges or box shadows.
Just hate how sites look on IE8 when I'm done with them.
Such a fan of not using images to make rounded edges now that CSS can handle it effectively.
