Now I dont' have an official description because, well, Edy's doesn't feel the need to provide us one on the container (nor does the website's limited edition flavors sections appear to be working in any of the major browsers). Oy, let's just chalk this one up to "generic thin mint cookies in mint ice cream".
On Second Scoop: you know, the first scooping really threw me off my game last night, so let's try a long winded second scoop --- It's certainly a neat looking ice cream as it almost has the appearance of thin cake crumb swirls. Taking a big whiff, it certainly smells like thin mints. It's funny because you swear that it's almost got a very faint green hue to the base ice cream. Ok, too much talk, it's melting.
Ok, first bite with an open mind. It certainly has that thin mint taste, though the direct translation to an ice cream can be a little disconcerting. I dont know if it's the effervescence or just some backing chemicals, but it sits weird in your mouth. It's like every single texture is present at the same time and it just feels a bit unnatural. I know I'm being picky, I always am, but sometimes different worlds come together and make a beautiful new thing, and then other times you just kind of scratch your head.
I'm not going to pretend that the thin mint crowd won't love this, and with my new found appreciation of mint I really am trying to dig this, but it's just too cakey for me... ok, I really want to say that it comes across as a little slimy. The point is the texture just isn't working for me. You know what? I'm starting to wonder if this works better as a non-light ice cream. Yeah, that will be my recommendation. If you want to try it, go with the regular ice cream, not the slow churned version, and then come back and let us know what you think.
Verdict? Has the thin mint vibe, but the execution seems off
Buy Again? Probably not

Different Unichrome family display drivers
The VIA proprietary drivers
These are considered unstable and insecure. They are however the only way to get any form of 3D acceleration or even reliable modesetting on certain chipsets, and can be installed using the via-chrome9-dkms, xf86-video-via-chrome9 & via-chrome9-dri packages from the AUR.
The Xorg-driver
The driver that comes with Xorg. Supports VIA CLE266, KM400/KN400, K8M/N800, PM/N800 and CN400 chipsets. Accelerates 2D, 3D, Xvideo and mpeg2 decoding using XvMC. Nowadays the Xorg-driver is mostly unmaintained as the development focus is on OpenChrome-driver.
You can install the Xorg driver with command:
pacman -S xf86-video-via
The xorg.conf
driver name is via.
Just remember that this driver is no longer available in pacman repos. You have to use AUR and ABS in order to install it: [1]
The Unichrome-driver
Another driver with the development focus on stability and clean code. Unichrome driver only supports CLE266, KM400, P4M800 and K8M800 chipsets. Does not support accelerated mpeg2-decoding.
You can install the unichrome driver with command:
pacman -S xf86-video-unichrome
The xorg.conf
driver name is via.
The OpenChrome driver
The most advanced and developed driver for Unichromes. Supports CLE266, KM400/KN400/KM400A/P4M800, CN400/PM800/PN800/PM880, K8M800, CN700/VM800/P4M800Pro, CX700, P4M890, K8M890 and P4M900/VN896 chipsets. Accelerates 2D, 3D, Xvideo and mpeg2 decoding using XvMC. This driver is the way to go if you want to be on the bleeding edge.
You can install the OpenChrome driver with command:
pacman -S xf86-video-openchrome
To enable any of the following options to fix issues, first create a new file 10-openchrome.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/:
Section "Device" Identifier "My Device Name" Driver "openchrome" EndSection
If your X-Server shows artifacts and fails to redraw some windows, try disabling the "EnableAGPDMA" option:
Option "EnableAGPDMA" "false"
If your machine freeze at startup (GDM) or after login (slim), try adding the XAA option "XaaNoImageWriteRect". Note that this only applies if you are using the XAA acceleration method (configured by the "AccelMethod" option). As of 0.2.906, the default acceleration method is EXA.
Option "XaaNoImageWriteRect"
If you experience significant CPU usage and low UI framerate, try adding:
Option "AccelMethod" "XAA"
Hardware Specific
VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC]
The EXA acceleration method may cause significant CPU usage and low UI framerate. Refer to the "AccelMethod" option in the #Troubleshooting section.
Unichrome and OpenGL
OpenGL support for Via's graphic chipsets is seriously outdated. At the moment you will not be able to run more fancy applications, games or compositing desktops like Compiz Fusion that rely on OpenGL as a backend, because the more recent OpenGL extensions are not yet supported in Unichrome 3D driver. You will be able to run simple OpenGL-applications though. The 3D driver for Unichrome is provided by the the DRI project.
Install unichrome-dri, libgl and mesa -packages to get OpenGL to work.
DPMS problems
If you experience problems with DPMS not turning off laptop's backlight, try adding:
Option "VBEModes" "true"
to the device section of xorg.conf.
Hangup on exit
If your computer crashes when closing X, you may try not using vesa driver for kernel console. Just delete the vga stuff from kernel line on grub or append line on lilo.

With figures of 4-0-23-1, Ravindra Jadeja was the most economical bowler for the visiting side. The all-rounder who has been consistently performing with the ball helped keep runs in check and provided the team with a crucial breakthrough. Although he conceded 13 runs in his second over, the left-arm spinner dismissed the on song Murali Vijay when handed the ball again and bowled a miserly second spell.
After MS Dhoni elected to field first, his bowling unit conceded 178 runs. While speaking to IPLT20.com after the win, Jadeja talked about planning Vijay's dismissal and CSK's fan following even at the away venue.
Excerpts from the interview:
After conceding 13 runs in your second over you returned to finish as the most economical bowler from your side. What did MS Dhoni tell you and what were your plans?
After giving away those runs in the second over I was only thinking about not bowling any loose deliveries in my next over. From the end I was bowling had a shorter boundary. This is T20 cricket and they were going to take their chances. I was thinking of not bowling to their strength. My effort was to try and bowl where the batsman can't hit the big shots and luckily I was able to bowl in right areas.
You claimed the wicket of Murali Vijay in your second spell. How did you plan his dismissal?
He hits well over midwicket and mid-on in the slog overs so I thought of bowling him outside off-stump. If he hits a good shot then there is nothing much I can do.
How does a bowler prepare himself for T20s?
A lot has to do with the wicket as well. If the ball is turning then that is one way of bowling and if there is no turn then it is a different ball game. I try to bowl dot balls and bowl in the good areas and mix my deliveries. Vary the pace and at times bowl outside the off-stump.
What total were you comfortable chasing when your captain opted to field first?
When DD were 108 for three and lost a couple of wickets at the score of 120, we thought of restricting them to 160-165 runs. We also knew that the boundary is a bit small and there is dew and it was drizzling also so we would benefit while chasing.
CSK's top-order is having a dream run. How are you keeping yourself ready whenever you get a chance to bat?
I put in extra time in the nets. Considering that there could be a situation where I am needed to score 15-17 runs off the last over, I should be ready.

Breast cancer is the most common type of non-skin cancer in the world. In the UK, a woman's lifetime risk of developing breast cancer has risen from 1 in 9 to 1 in 8. That's around 130 women diagnosed every day, with nearly 12,000 women dying of breast cancer every year. Cancer treatment is often stressful and debilitating. Our project will help breast cancer patients - and their families - achieve the best possible quality of life, not only during their treatment but long into the future.
The Haven provides, completely free of charge, a wide range of therapies which help people to deal with the physical and emotional side effects of breast cancer - and over 90% of our Visitors feel that our support was essential to their recovery.
We will provide 100 new breast cancer patients with the support, information and skills to maximise self-management of their illness, rebuild their well-being, and transform their quality of life. We will also give their families support and advice.
This project has provided additional documentation in a PDF file (projdoc.pdf).

US Anti-Slaughter Bill to be Reintroduced
The Western Producer – Canada/ Posted by Robert Arnason
American politicians, animal welfare groups and horse lovers are expected to introduce a bill to the U.S. Congress this week that could, effectively, shut down horse slaughter plants in Canada.
Senator Mary Landrieu, a Democrat from Louisiana, a Republican congressman from Pennsylvania and a Democrat from Illinois, are expected to introduce federal legislation March 13 that will ban the killing of horses for human consumption and prohibit the transport of horses across the U.S. border for slaughter.
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) support the legislation.
The bill is a response to a company that wants to open a horse slaughter plant in New Mexico, the HSUS said in a news release.
"If approved, Valley Meat Company LLC will be the first facility in the U.S. to slaughter horses for human consumption since 2007," the HSUS said.
The company has applied to the U.S. Department of Agriculture to provide inspection services for the plant. The agency is processing the application.
In late February the New York Times reported the USDA was expected to approve the request, sometime in the next two months. Valley Meat claims that under the Federal Meat Inspection Act, the USDA must provide inspectors for all applicable species under the act, including horses.
"It is astonishing that we may see the resumption of horse slaughter on U.S. soil while Europe is still reeling from a horse meat scandal," said Wayne Pacelle, president and chief executive officer of HSUS. "Have we not learned anything about the industry's deception in Europe and the turmoil it has caused?"
If voted into law the bill would cut off a supply of horses to Canadian horse slaughter plants in Fort Macleod, Alta., and Massueville, Que.
Since 2007, when the U.S. government cut off funding for horse slaughter inspections and the governments of Illinois and Texas shut down plants in those states, U.S. horse buyers began shipping animals to Canada for slaughter.
More than 160,000 American horses are exported each year for slaughter, mostly to Canada and Mexico, the HSUS said.
In an editorial on the Horse Welfare Alliance of Canada website, a group that supports horse slaughter, James Laws, Canadian Meat Council executive director, said Canada exported $83 million worth of horsemeat in 2011.

Works while it lasts
LG refuses to supply even basic support for their product after the warranty period
Other Thoughts:
I have the previous version of this product. After a couple of years, it stopped reading DVD discs. After going through their terrible support system, and sending them the same information multiple times, they refuse to support the product. It has a terrible 1-year parts and labor warranty, which apparently they also apply to all service. I have never had a company flat-out refuse technical support on the basis of a hardware warranty. This is a first.
This will be the last time I purchase any LG product for my PC, or recommend LG PC products to anyone else.

2011 Competition
The 18th Annual Burton D. Wechsler First Amendment Moot Court Competition was held October 20 - 22, 2011. The 2011 problem involved a nonprofit, politically active church that was challenging (1) the constitutionality of a funeral picketing statute as a violation of the Free Speech Clause; and (2) the constitutionality of the political intervention restrictions imposed by a state-law analogue to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The fact pattern was similar to, but does not entirely duplicate, the facts of Snyder v. Phelps. The free speech issues related to the tax exemption and corresponding restrictions on political speech revisit case law on the constitutionality of restrictions on speech made by 501(c)(3) organizations, especially in light of Citizens United v. FEC and other cases discussing political speech made by corporate speakers.
Congratulations to all of the 2011 competitors and teams!
The teams in the 2011 Final Round argued in front of a prestigious panel composed of The Honorable Dolores K. Sloviter, Circuit Judge from the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, The Honorable James A. Wynn, Jr., Circuit Judge from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, and The Honorable Jerome A. Holmes, Circuit Judge from the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

Justice Department Number 2 Stepping Down
Ogden, a former Clinton administration official, led the Obama DOJ's transition effort, then stayed on as Deputy AG. In that role, he has managed the department's day-to-day operations.
In a statement, Ogden portrayed the move as always part of the plan.
I took a leave from my practice of law thirteen months ago on Election Day to lead the Department of Justice transition for President Obama. My hope then was to identify the goals for a successful transition at a critical time for the Department, when its credibility was under attack and when its traditional law enforcement missions had suffered. During the transition, President-elect Obama and Attorney General-designate Holder asked me to serve as the Deputy Attorney General, which gave me the opportunity to complete the transition process and see the Department solidly on a path to achieving those goals. I accepted that challenge, with the intention of returning to my practice as soon as I felt the Department was firmly on that path.
Still, the Washington Post notes that Ogden "did not have deep experience with criminal law issues," and that he "sometimes crossed swords" with Holder.
The White House referred questions to the Justice Department.

There's like, what, 5 documented people in the nation running 11's@116 in a stock 302.. LOL!
I know of one stock 340whp M3 that ran 7.8's in the 1/8th with a 24hr of Daytona winning driver. It was a 6 speed car on stock tires. That's pretty solid.
DD nailed it. They are pretty close and one requires perfection if the M3 has DCT. But so did Sticky..More people drag Mustangs in one week then there have been E9x's for the entire model run.
If you want to talk about downplaying. A stock M3 on PS2's lapped laguna in 1:42.9. A Boss with a braced back seat, splitter and R comps did it in 1:41.1. The M3 was without the competition package. Put them on a dyno, then put them on the scale. The M3 is superior, the underdog, did more with much less.. I could keep going.
Comparing a 5.0 and an M3 is a bit, meh, apple's and oranges. You get what you pay for. I've instructed in some 5.0's and they seem to have excessive body movement and brake dive. They feel like they pivot around on there chassis, kind of like a fat girls muffin top shaking around when she dances. They are nicely balanced, and have good power but short of that they are pretty sloppyLast edited by onurleft; 03-31-2013 at 03:08 PM.

On the track stock for stock the M3 "feels" way better. One I put sway bars and springs on the boss it was a whole new car. Car puts down some great lap times. Boss and m3 on same tires will be pretty equal around a racetrack.

A DCT M3 just ran door to door with the stronger Boss. Independent test numbers just show the same thing and the M3 handling better. All this with the Mustang coming out years AFTER the M3 debuted. That's awesome.
And there are far more Mustangs with 5.0 motors on the drag strip than M3's. All one has to do is go to the strip to verify for themselves. I'm always the only M3.

Just my anecdotal evidence: I ran a bolt-on 5.0 in my FBO M3 (filters, powerchip tune, fabspeed x-pipe with 200 cell cats and AP exhaust) from a 20kmph roll to about 120kmph and lost by a car length. I also raced a DCT with similar mods (Dinan tune, catless x-pipes and rear section) from a roll and neither one of us pulled hard on the other unless I mis-shifted or jumped on the gun before him. My C63 with PP and deleted rear cats is much faster than my M3 and I have run Mosport faster in it.

Peritonitis is an infection caused by an inflammation of the lining of the abdominal cavity, known as the peritoneum. The peritoneum, a thin, clear membrane, normally covers all the abdominal organs and the inside walls of the abdomen.
Most often, peritonitis is caused by the introduction of an infection from a perforation of the bowel such as a ruptured appendix or diverticulum. Other sources include perforations of the stomach, intestine, gallbladder, or appendix. Pelvic inflammatory disease in women is also a common cause of peritonitis. Peritonitis can also develop after surgery if bacteria enters into the abdomen during an operation.
The following are the most common symptoms of peritonitis. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Severe abdominal pain, aggravated by any motion
Nausea and vomiting
Abdominal tenderness or distention
Fluid in the abdomen
Unable to have a bowel movement or pass gas
Low urine output
The symptoms of peritonitis may resemble other medical conditions or problems. Always consult your doctor for a diagnosis.
Quick diagnosis of peritonitis is vital as complications can occur quickly. In addition to a complete medical history and physical examination (which may show abdominal tension and tenderness), diagnostic tests for peritonitis may include the following:
X-rays. A diagnostic test that uses invisible electromagnetic energy beams to produce images of internal tissues, bones, and organs onto film.
Laboratory tests. These tests are done to identify the infectious organism.
Exploratory surgery
CT scans
Specific treatment for peritonitis will be determined by your doctor based on:
Your age, overall health, and medical history
Extent of the condition
Your tolerance of specific medicines, procedures, or therapies
Expectations for the course of the condition
Your opinion or preference
Treatment of peritonitis is generally aimed at treating the underlying condition. Often, emergency exploratory surgery is needed, especially when appendicitis, a perforated peptic ulcer, or diverticulitis may be the cause of the infection. Prompt treatment is extremely important as major complications can occur quickly. Once peritonitis has been diagnosed, antibiotics are given immediately. Peritonitis can be fatal if not treated right away.

Second night in hospital for jockey
Grand National-winning jockey Ryan Mania is hoping to leave hospital on Tuesday after undergoing a final MRI scan.
Mania, 23, was taken by air ambulance to hospital in Newcastle following a fall at Hexham on Sunday, the day after he tasted National success on the Sue Smith-trained Auroras Encore.
The Scotsman was linking up once again with Bingley-based Smith in the St John Lee Handicap Hurdle when his mount Stagecoach Jasper came down early on the final circuit.
Mania was conscious following the fall and was put into the air ambulance on a spinal board before being taken to Newcastle Royal Victoria Infirmary for further assessment.
In a statement to Press Association Sport last night, his agent Bruce Jeffrey said: "Ryan Mania will be staying for a second night at the Royal Victoria Infirmary.
"The 23-year-old Grand National winner is waiting for a final MRI scan to give him the all-clear and allow him to return home. It is expected he will have the scan tomorrow and then leave the hospital."
Mania said: "I'd like to thank all my friends, family and everyone who has given me support since my accident. I feel okay and I'm really looking forward to being able to leave the hospital and get back to normal life."
Mania's mother, Lesley, earlier told Racing UK it had been a rollercoaster 48 hours since her son's National success.
She said: "It's been ups and downs - we don't know where we've been. I was watching the race on the TV when he fell off. He's had a lot of falls and to be caught by a horse behind him, it's scary.
"You can't do anything until you hear something. That euphoria (of the National win) is still there - it's just been surreal."

Please note this is a humour article – work of pure fiction
Moments after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) offered a ticket to former Sourav Ganguly for the 2014 LS polls, the Congress approached Greg Chappell, Ganguly's bete noire, in order to pitch him against the prince of Kolkata.
"Yes, it is true. We have approached Gregji to take on Dada. He was so successful in bringing down Ganguly's cricket career and we feel that with him on our side, it'll hardly be months before Ganguly is decimated politically too," said Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh. "Besides, it always makes sense to go for someone like Chappell, who has impeccable secular credentials and keep newly-formed communal forces like Ganguly at bay," Singh added.
Chappell who spoke to The UnReal Times correspondent Varsha Dhoble, appeared quite pleased with the offer and is currently inclined towards accepting it. "Oh, I'm loving it so far, mate! It looks like I might be accepting this full time. I'm told Congress workers love working under foreigners. I've already got the drift of how this whole thing works. Sonia is like my mother, she brought in the Food Security Bill, the Right To Information act, the Land Acquisition Bill and so on. I'm surely gonna set up a Rajiv Gandhi Sports Academy through an Indira Gandhi Cricket Coaching Yojana once I'm voted to power, mate and after that, when Rahulji comes to flag off the coaching camps there, he can proudly say — India mein Gregji ko kaun laaya?," said Greg, leaving our correspondent totally stumped. "Also, I've dealt with the BCCI for years and it wasn't too different from a political party, given that shady politicians run both the organizations. I'm looking forward to catch up with Sharad Pawar again in the alliance," Chappell added.
Congress quarters from all across the country have welcomed the decision, with Tamil Nadu Youth Congress workers going ballistic and feeding cake to posters of the late Tony Greig.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) ? Republican Gov. Rick Snyder on Wednesday called for extending Medicaid eligibility to hundreds of thousands of Michigan residents without health insurance, welcoming the option available under the Obama administration's health care overhaul.
Snyder made the announcement at a Lansing hospital the day before he proposes his next state budget.
"It's a win for all," he said while flanked by doctors, nurses and health officials.
The chance to cover nearly half of the state's uninsured is "huge," Snyder said, adding that he is comfortable the health care system can handle the extra caseload.
The federal health care law gives states the option to accept the expansion, refuse it or postpone a decision. But there are benefits for states that choose to expand Medicaid.
The federal government will pick up the entire cost in the first three years and 90 percent over the long haul.
Snyder is expected to run into resistance from Republican lawmakers opposed to the health law. Hospitals, doctors and others in favor of Medicaid expansion joined Snyder at his announcement.
He said Medicaid expansion would save the state $200 million a year initially because more people who now receive mental health services and medical care from state-funded programs will instead be covered with federal money. He called for setting aside $100 million a year of those savings so Michigan can kick in for new enrollees down the line.
This is the second time in less than 18 months that Snyder has bucked his own party on a major health care question.
His call to implement a state-run online marketplace where the uninsured can get taxpayer-subsidized private coverage died in the GOP-controlled Legislature. Michigan now is on the path toward a partnership exchange controlled primarily by the federal government.
In 30 states led by Republican governors, six governors have called for enlarging Medicaid. Ohio's John Kasich earlier this week reiterated his opposition to what he called "Obamacare" and the requirement that people have health insurance but said expansion makes sense for Ohio.
By expanding Medicaid in 2014, Michigan could add about 470,000 people to a program that already serves about one in five state residents.
Three years of full federal funding for newly eligible enrollees are available from 2014 through 2016, gradually phasing down to 90 percent in 2020 and after. The match rate for existing Medicaid participants is 66 percent.
To qualify, household income must be below 138 percent of the federal poverty level, about $15,000 for an individual.
Conservatives are concerned deficit-burdened Washington will renege on the 90-percent deal and also have a philosophical resistance to expanding government programs, particularly one as large as Medicaid.

Azle Chimney, Fireplace and Dryer Vent Services
"Let Us Keep The Home Fires Burning And Not The Homes." – Don Johnson
Chimney Inspection
Did you know that according to the National Fire Protection Association, there are 3 levels of chimney inspections? The first level is the basic chimney inspection. This occurs during routine annual chimney cleanings. The level 2 chimney inspection is recommended if you buy or sell your home or believe you may have experienced a chimney fire. This includes a video inspection service. The third level includes an extensive dis-assembly of your fireplace. Our standard inspection is a level 1 inspection but usually includes additional rooftop inspections unless you have a slate or very steep roof. Prices depend on location.
Dryer Vent Cleaning
Dryer vent cleaning improves the safety and efficiency of dryer installations. As dryer vents become filled with lint and other debris, drying time increases and can cause the dryer to overheat. The Consumer Product Safety Commission reports dryer related home fires are on the rise and have led to fatalities and millions in property damage. So consumers should have their dryer vents cleaned and inspected periodically. Our equipment is designed specifically to tackle both simple and complex dryer vent systems, allowing us to remove lint as well as blockages caused by animal nesting.
Chimney Cleaning
The main reason you should have your chimney cleaned is to remove flammable creosote which accumulates inside your chimney. If these harmful deposits of soot and creosote are allowed to build up, they will eventually lead to a chimney fire.
Another important reason to have your chimney cleaned is to clear the flue to allow the toxic exhaust gasses to escape. Blocked furnace flue is among the leading causes of carbon monoxide poisonings.
Our chimney cleaning services come with a free 21 point visual inspection for your safety at no extra cost.
Chimney Cap Sale/Install
A once-a-year check on your chimney caps can be well worth your time for protecting your house. We are partnered with www.MyChimneyWorld.com!

Crown and Chase Inspection/Repair
A once-a-year check on your chimney caps can be well worth your time for protecting your house. We are partnered with www.MyChimneyWorld.com!
Standard caps come with a home owners lifetime warranty against coming off. If one of our chimney caps ever falls off we will install a brand new cap at not cost.
Odor Resolution
Smoke odors, campfire like smells, chimneysmells, or fireplace odors. Fireplace smells & chimney odor problems may be attributed to a multitude of different things.
Firebox Inspections/Repairs
The firebox is the part of the fireplace where the wood is placed in order to make a fire. If the firebox has cracked bricks or deteriorating mortar joints, it needs to be rebuilt with new fire bricks and high temperature refractory mortar; thereby restoring its structural integrity and safety.
Our Crown And Chase repairs come with a standard 10 year warranty.
Damper Cap Sales and Installs
Keep heat and energy in and keep rain, cold drafts and animals out! Dampers are an energy efficient method of protecting your fireplace flue from water and animals while saving on your energy bills with its air tight seal. We are partnered with www.MyChimneyWorld.com!
Our damper caps, if installed by one of our professional technicians, come with a home-owners lifetime warranty.
Animal Removal From Chimney
Chimneys provide a warm, dry shelter that suits the needs of many small animals, the most common of which are squirrels and raccoons. PCC Sweeps removes these pests from your chimney and offers a variety of caps and dampers to keep them out.
Curtain Screens Sales and Installs
Restore the beauty of your fireplace with replacement screens.
We carry sizes in height 18″ through 28″ only.

On Boy Crisis' "L'homme"
Boy Crisis: check that weird man-ponytail
Oh, Great Depression, if there's a silver lining to you murdering all our livelihoods, putting our friends out of work, instilling unspeakable fear in those of us who didn't follow Jesus into carpentry, it's the hope you will stop songs like Boy Crisis's "L'homme" from coming into this world. This track is everything that's wrong about the Lower East Side--it is I CAN HAS DOWNTOWN compressed into MP3, the Rivington smokers' battalion depicted in a click--pieced together by New York types who mistake weird man-ponytails for creativity. The lyrics are Babelfish doggerel masquerading as witticism: "I feel like a monster truck at the Botanical Garden." Funny, listening to this song, I feel like a Corvette at the dump.
Why should you, or I, care? Too often in this town, douchebags like this get a pass with their excruciating self-importance, privilege mistaken for character, lethargy feigned as existentialism. Beautiful 26-year-olds slum into bed with them because THAT BOY (CRISIS) IS IN A BAND! AND HE SINGS PARTLY IN FRENCH! Invite him over if you must, but make no mistake that drug-speak nonsense like, "There's a party in my brain and there's no discernible dress code" isn't clever. It's a line that likely made everyone laugh after too much cocaine, and someone decided to salvage it on the back of a taxi receipt and put it in a song, but it's terrible sober. Which probably doesn't happen often with these guys, if you believe the lame come-on of a chorus: "I'm on some drugs/You're on some drugs/Do you wanna talk to me?" Top that with the laziest, let's-maybe-fuck follow-through ever: "And if you don't, that's cool as well/I'm in the other room, if you need me." Don't say you weren't warned--a text this indifferent means there'll be no brunch.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
The CEO of US Airways came to the defense of the embattled airport executive who built Charlotte Douglas International Airport, saying Wednesday that: "Jerry Orr has done an amazing job, and we'd like to see him back in there."
"Jerry Orr has been a phenomenal airport director," Doug Parker said, crediting Orr for building the airport infrastructure that enables US Airways to operate the world's fourth-biggest single-airline hub in Charlotte. Charlotte Douglas, a big city airport located in a medium-sized city, has flourished due to Orr's vision and ability to build needed infrastructure while keeping costs low.
Parker's comments, made Wednesday during the US Airways earnings call, were prompted by two questions from Charlotte Observer reporter Ely Portillo. Portillo asked whether airline executives ever envisioned that Charlotte would have ten daily departures to Europe (Four new summer flights were announced on Monday), and then asked about the airline's latest take on Orr, who was fired in July by a recently-appointed city manager.
A review of the sequence of three US Airways' executives answers to Portillo's questions provides an indication not only of Orr's remarkable tenure as airport director but also of Parker's basic humanity and willingness to take a politically incorrect stand. It is exactly what distinguishes him as a leader, even if at times he can appear to be reckless.
Portillo's first question was answered by US Airways President Scott Kirby, who said "It's a remarkable story of growth in Charlotte. It shows you the power of a hub to be able to connect customers and offer customers service to far more destinations, in the microcosm of the Southeast."
to speak was Robert Isom, US Airways' chief operating office, who took the politically correct course in discussing Charlotte's tricky airport management situation. The career of the 72-year-old Orr, airport director since 1989, was collateral damage in a dispute between the Tea Party-dominated North Carolina legislature and Charlotte's heavily Democratic city government. The legislature decided early this year to seize control of the airport from the
city, which has run it successfully since 1936. The legislature created an airport commission, with Orr at its helm, but a city lawsuit delayed the transfer of airport oversight to the commission. So the city continues to run the airport, but City Manager Ron Carlee fired Orr.
To speak out here would have required becoming enmeshed in a tar baby of a dispute that pits Republicans against Democrats, Charlotte against Raleigh and Orr's legacy against Orr's interim successor. Isom chose not to, instead taking the bland approach. "We're really pleased with a lot of the work that's going on, on the airfield," he said. "Our relationships with the city and airport have never been better."
The sugar-coating was a little bit too much for Parker, who chose to speak up in Orr's defense. Parker referred to the hub capabilities that Kirby spoke of, saying "all that is due to Jerry."
The story does not end here. It goes without saying, in our age of corporate over-cautiousness, that US Airways quickly issued a clarification. To summarize, the airline likes Orr, it likes interim airport director Brent Cagle, it likes Charlotte, and it "in no way intended to take sides in the conflict over governance of Charlotte-Douglas International Airport or in local personnel issues."
Give Parker credit for not just going along, out of self-interest, when an obvious injustice occurs. Most people, particularly CEOs, have a way of finding themselves too busy to get involved.

Phalanx Film Entertainment and All Thing Random Productions' follow-up to their comedy pilot Overcrowded is off the wall and often quite funny. Marty and Doug's New Religion follows the exploits of two goofballs who decide to start a religion in their own apartment as an excuse to meet women mostly and manage to anger everyone from their local church to Jesus Christ.
Produced, written by, and starring company regulars Greg Vorob and Dan Conrad, Marty and Doug's New Religion is gloriously silly from the word "go," with a concept that is a lot of fun and a steady pace, set by director Dan Kowalski, that keeps things moving along. There are also lively performances not only from Vorob and Conrad but from their fine supporting cast. If you're in the mood for something that's just plan ol' silly and fun, then Marty and Doug's New Religion is worth checking out.
Marty (Vorob) and Doug (Conrad) are a couple of slackers who will do anything to avoid responsibility and anything to meet women. They have very little in the way of money and prospects and after a discussion about the church which Marty considers a racket, stating, "and they don't even pay taxes," they decide to form their own religion from their apartment. For Marty and Doug, it's perfect. The way they see it, they don't have to pay taxes; they can't be evicted from their home; and the women and money will flow like wine. Naturally, they think it's a great idea, but there's one who immediately doesn't like it: Jesus (Ian Campbell Dunn). Jesus appears and warns them not to start this religion, claiming that they will exploit people's faith for a couple of cheap thrills, which is, of course, exactly what they plan to do. The boys have been warned, but they ignore Jesus and go right ahead with their plan.
They even have a great name for their religion — "Awesomism" (or is it "Baddasstianity"?) with their core values being "kicking back (being lazy), kicking it (getting laid) and kicking ass." It works, for a time at least. They manage to acquire a congregation (a rogues gallery of loonies) who actually believe in the gospel and teachings that they are spreading (their gospel and teachings include women sleeping with the high priests (guess who?) in "the sex pit"), but Jesus is still not happy with the arrangement. He even goes so far as to retain legal counsel to try and put a stop to Marty and Doug's antics, but with no success. Jesus then tries to get the church involved as well and that doesn't work either. Enter Veronica (Molly Montgomery), the woman of Marty's dreams (he watches her from afar every Sunday as she walks into church). Working as a spy for the church, Veronica manages to cause a rift between Marty and Doug, which threatens the success of their newfound religion and of their friendship.
If all of this sounds silly, you'd be right. It's very silly, but also a lot of fun. Like Overcrowded, Marty and Doug's New Religion embraces the silly, with characters and scenarios that are broad, over the top, and quite theatrical. I enjoyed Overcrowded very much when I saw it a few months ago, even though it was a little all over place as far as subplots were concerned. With their latest outing, I am delighted to report that things are more focused and the comedy is much, much sharper. As in all of their works, the scenes move at a fast pace, led by Vorob and Conrad, who are both animated and energetic in their roles. They are backed up by a fine supporting cast with standouts including Lisa Peart (who reminded me of Julie Hagerty) as the spinsterish Phyllis (who time and time again refuses to go into "the sex pit" with Conrad's Doug) and Felix Gardon, a firecracker as the demented Barry.
Marty and Doug's New Religion had a premiere in Lower Manhattan late last month, which I hope was a successful one. Phalanx Film Entertainment and All Thing Random Productions are to be commended for their work here and I look forward to their next comic concoction.

From Our 2010 Archives Drug Improves Growth for Juvenile Arthritis KidsStudy Shows Etanercept Treats Growth Problems of Children With Juvenile Ideopathic Arthritis By Katrina Woznicki Reviewed by Laura J. Martin, MD Nov. 4, 2010 -- Researchers have found that a drug used to treat autoimmune disorders effectively increased growth rates among children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), a disease that affects children's joints and can stymie their growth rates. Researchers led by Edward H. Giannini, MSc, DrPH, of Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, compared three types of treatment among 594 children ages 2 to 18 with JIA. The participants received one of three treatments: etanercept, a drug used to treat autoimmune disorders sold under the brand name Enbrel; methotrexate, a drug used to treat inflammatory arthritis that is sold under the brand names Trexall or Rheumatrex; or etanercept plus methotrexate. The majority of patients were female, white, and had used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to treat their symptoms. The children's height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) were measured at the start of the study and then again at one, two, and three years afterward and their measurements were compared with CDC standardized growth charts. Overall, the children taking etanercept or etanercept plus methotrexate experienced steadily increasing improvements in height, weight, and BMI compared with those who took methotrexate alone. Improvement in GrowthDuring the three-year study period, the researchers found that:
About 300,000 children in the U.S. have some form of juvenile arthritis, causing stiffness, joint pain, inflammation, and possibly reduced physical growth and development. "Studies have shown that growth retardation is associated with systemic inflammation and is a potentially permanent complication of JIA," Giannini says in a news release. "Restoring normal growth development is a relevant goal of anti-inflammatory treatment in JIA patients and our study showed significant increases in height, weight, and BMI percentiles for those treated with etanercept alone or in combination with methotrexate." SOURCES: News release, Wiley-Blackwell.Giannini, E. Arthritis & Rheumatism, November 2010; vol 62: pp 3259-3264. |

Other sports have embraced analytics. The Red Sox hired Bill James. Daryl Morey, general manager of the Houston Rockets, is a conference co-chair. The Atlanta Falcons monitor the number of 3d-and-1 game situations, for example, to help determine how much they practice those scenarios. Coaches for star tennis players can access body heat maps to determine where their charges spend most of their time on the court.
Hockey is behind. Only 10 NHL teams were represented at the conference. At least one NHL general manager is unfamiliar with Corsi, the statistic that measures shot attempts and therefore puck possession. In comparison to other sports, hockey remains the mammoth stuck in the Ice Age.

European Parliament President Martin Schulz on Junior Enterprises
"I want to congratulate JADE for its involvement in encouraging entrepreneurial skills in Europe. Thanks to you, more than 280 junior enterprises in 14 European countries bridge the gap between academia and the real market. In addition to their studies, 22.000 students are practically involved into the running of non-profit SMEs in Europe: that is an impressive number of young Europeans learning how to become entrepreneurs, and moreover discovering social entrepreneurship…"
The Junior Enterprise Concept
A Junior Enterprise is a non-profit civil social organization, formed and managed exclusively by undergraduate and postgraduate students of higher education, which provides services for companies, institutions and society, under the guidance of teachers and professionals with the goal to consolidate and enhance the learning of their members. Junior Enterprises are similar to real companies, counting with the principles of corporate governance like management council and executive board, and own regulation.

Just because the summer heat has arrived doesn't mean that it is time to stop enjoying mate. Whether you prefer organic, foreign, smooth, cooperative or strong, this list will help you find the right yerba for you.
Kraus Orgánica Mate
Like all types of farming, the yerba industry has its fair share of organic options. With its USDA Organic approval stamp, Kraus Orgánica is among the most popular organic yerbas. Kraus has been a family business since 1894 and because of its organic, kosher and fair trade standards, this yerba can only be found in specialty health shops, of which there are many in Buenos Aires.
The Kraus yerba farm is located in San Ignacio, Misiones, Argentina. The company prides itself on its "green" farming practices; they do not use any herbicides, pesticides or artificial fertilisers in the production process.
"We work within the system that nature has provided us," owner Milton Kraus says.
The company also supports biodiversity by replanting native trees to the area. In spring and summer the yerba is harvested with the company's machinery and in autumn and winter they harvest by hand.
This mate has a clean taste with a very slight hint of lemon. The only complaint is that the cycle is short and the yerba needs to be changed too frequently.
If you think Argentines drink a lot of mate, wait til you see what goes in Uruguay. Whether they are riding a motorcycle or going to the bathroom, Uruguayans have a tight bond with the herbal tea and always seem to have a thermos under their arm.
It is no surprise, then, that one of the most popular yerba producers is a Uruguayan company: Canarias. Started in 1951 in the city of Pando, Canarias is named after the Canary Islands to pay tribute to the birthplace of the founder's parents.
Their vision is "to be recognised as the most prestigious company in Uruguay." Through their devotion to "creating products that help improve consumers' quality of life," they are doing just that. Canarias boasts the benefits of yerba mate on the company website: cardiovascular health, age prevention, source of energy and digestion aid, among others.
There are seven different types of Canarias yerba ranging from tradicional (bitter and strong) to serena (herbal).
While Argentina may be the largest yerba producer, there is something to be said about Uruguay's mate tradition. "In Uruguay, mate is a symbol of our identity," Canarias website says. Canarias is a bit harder to find than local brands in Buenos Aires, but Coto supermarkets usually have it in stock.
Union Suave
When looking for a smoother, less intense and bitter taste, have a try of Union Suave. This yerba is known for its mild, smooth taste and also comes in orange, peach and apple flavours.
Union Suave is produced in the north of the Corrientes province by a company called Las Marias. Started in 1924 with a family love of plants, Las Marias has grown to be the largest producer of yerba mate in the world. Known primarily for their first product, Taragui, Las Marias produces five products in total, Union Suave being their most mellow.
The company's founders and their help live on the yerba farm's property in Corrientes. They have built an entire neighborhood including a school with more than 500 students, a hospital, and a sports club. They offer visits to the yerba farm and tours of their production process for those who are interested.
Las Marias exports to more than 40 countries worldwide and is very easy to find at most supermarkets in Buenos Aires.
For those who are looking for an extremely mellow green tea taste without the strong herbal flavor of mate, Playadito is the yerba for you. Grown in Colonia Liebig, Corrientes, Playadito is produced by a cooperative. Started by a group of German, Ukranian and Polish immigrants over 80 years ago, the cooperative now has more than 140 workers producing honey, livestock and yerba.
If you are a first time mate drinker or have been turned off by the intense taste of yerba, the light Playadito is a good way to ease you in. The cooperative makes several kinds of yerbas in addition to their traditional Playadito including a tereré (to be drank cold) and a mate cocido (comes in the form of a tea bag).
Playadito also sells mate gourds, bombillas and termos in their signature colour: yellow. Visit http://www.cooperativaliebig.com.ar/ for purchasing details.
Whether you are a seasoned mate drinker or are willing to dive head first into the land of "fuerte" mate, Amanda delivers a strong, bold taste that will stir both your brain and your taste buds.
This family-founded company (La Cachuera S.A.) from Misiones may have the strongest taste in the business but they are making their yerba one of the most accessible. While mate is usually enjoyed in a home or public space, Amanda has created "mate bars" throughout Buenos Aires city and province where people can go to enjoy Amanda yerba mate in a bar scene. Check their website for a list of locations: http://www.yerbamanda.com.ar/en/matebar.php
La Cachuera S.A. opened a museum in 1997 that pays tribute to the founder, Juan Szychowski and has been declared a point of tourism interest in Misiones province.
Amanda offers a flavoured yerba in lemon and orange as well as their most popular traditional brand. They also have a yerba that is produced without stems and another one that is mixed with herbs such as peppermint, pennyroyal, incayuyo, linden, boldo, mint and lemon vervain.

X ray Production of X RaysAn important source of X rays is synchrotron radiation. X rays are also produced in a highly evacuated glass bulb, called an X-ray tube, that contains essentially two electrodes—an anode made of platinum, tungsten, or another heavy metal of high melting point, and a cathode. When a high voltage is applied between the electrodes, streams of electrons (cathode rays) are accelerated from the cathode to the anode and produce X rays as they strike the anode. Two different processes give rise to radiation of X-ray frequency. In one process radiation is emitted by the high-speed electrons themselves as they are slowed or even stopped in passing near the positively charged nuclei of the anode material. This radiation is often called brehmsstrahlung [Ger., = braking radiation]. In a second process radiation is emitted by the electrons of the anode atoms when incoming electrons from the cathode knock electrons near the nuclei out of orbit and they are replaced by other electrons from outer orbits. The spectrum of frequencies given off with any particular anode material thus consists of a continuous range of frequencies emitted in the first process, and superimposed on it a number of sharp peaks of intensity corresponding to discrete frequencies at which X rays are emitted in the second process. The sharp peaks constitute the X-ray line spectrum for the anode material and will differ for different materials. Sections in this article:

oh, it's on baby!
I love coats and I've missed mine all summer. This one is a fun one to wear. It's so swingy! I bought it years ago at an after-Christmas sale.
I got this cape last year. It's handmade and, while I do love it, I don't find it particularly wearable. I feel like I'm hiding under a tent. And it cost me small fortune. No kidding.
I just bought this one last Thursday. Nordstrom Rack for $35! I love the buttons most of all. The funny thing is that I bought the very same jacket for my sister for Christmas last year and paid full price.
I bought this last year. You'll never guess where...Target! It was really cheap. When I put it on the first time, Rich fell on the floor laughing. He thought I was joking. When I can muster enough nerve, I do wear it. And I ignore Rich's snickering.
As long as we're confessing things like coat obsessions, I'll make another confession. I am a recovering QVC-addict. It all started very innocently. Rich called one day, and in the middle of channel-changing, I had on QVC. He could hear it in the background and said that it sounded like a real office. Hmmm. I like the idea of sounding like a real office. Next thing you know, it's on all the time and I'm buying things like crazy. (I'm a really easy sell...don't even get me started on me and infomercials!) This coat was a TSV (today's special value) a couple of years ago. It really is nice and people ask me all the time if it is vintage.
My godmother, Aunt Martha, who is about 4 feet tall, routinely gives my mother bagloads of clothes to give to me (5'9"). She once gave me a trash bag full of lacy slips and underwear from the 1950s and 60s, including a pair of sheer panties with a poodle embroidered on it. I'm not making this up.
This coat was in a bag of moth-ball smelling suits. I sent everything else to Goodwill, but I like this coat (minus the fur! which sheds like nobody's business!) Maybe this year I'll find a way to clip off the fur.
I saved the best for last. This is my all-time, hands-down favorite coat. I bought it from Anthropologie a couple of seasons ago. I saw it when shopping with my friend Debbie. It went something like this: "Oh Amy! You have to try this on...it is so YOU!" "You think so? Okay" "Oh...My...God! Amy you have GOT to get that coat! It looks so cute on you!" "I don't know. I will think on it." A few weeks go by. I go back to the store and the coat has vanished from the shelves. Gone. Poof. I find it online. It is backordered for a ridiculously long time. So long that I forget completely about it until it shows up one fine day. My life hasn't been the same since. I am completely cute in this coat. Exhibit A

how interesting - I have the very same black velvet/fur coat. . vintage from my aunt, who got it from an old friend. I used to love to wear it around the house and pretend I was famous. . that's about as far as I went with that. . !

Your coat collection is incredible and very feminine. My favorite is the one from Aunt Martha. And I am making a special trip to Target to see the coat you purchased. Think I'm gonna have to make room in my coat closet for that one.
QVC is great! I love the convenience of it all!!! - 10:36 AM

You have some fabulous coats there. I have to admit that I am a coat addict too. AND a jacket fiend.
How bad does that make me? - 10:48 AM

Oh, COMPLETELY doesn't even begin to explain how cute you are in that pinkie. They're all so fantastic, but you're right, the last one is the best.

Love the Target swirly one. Screw Rich and his snarkiness, wear it! Also love the QVC and the pink one. So relieved I am not the only coat addict around.
