concrete with a lot of paper. Very cheap and better than a box.

Do you think that the lime in the concrete affects the soil pH? Do you use these with acid soil species?

Most trees LOVE lime. I don't really care about such things. I just grow trees (successfully). I water my azaleas with one of the most limy waters in Europe (successfully).

Dear Vampire Kitty,
How many times do I have to tell you — you're not a vampire, you're Caspar the Dumbly Ghost? Can't you even get your fake movie matinee creatures straight? I have been wondering if maybe you're the ghost of Morris, because we haven't seen him around in a while. Come on, fess up!

Wanna fight?
If you're an NHL player, you can probably find somebody to drop the gloves.
A lockout-delayed and shortened season has sparked a spike in fights just as it did the last time the league's labor woes led to a 48-game season. Four fights have started within the first few seconds of a game.
NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly says he doesn't know why fights have been happening so frequently, adding no one could have a precise answer. He notes the league has seen a significant decrease in fighting majors over the last week.
Some players say they're unleashing pent-up energy with bare-knuckled blows. Others want to give fans what they seem to want. One player acknowledges he's fighting for his job.

You'll have to delete some messages I can't reply haha
Hi TonyT,
You have my unreserved apologies for this late reply many thanks for the warm welcome and may I say I will try to be a good forumite so I hope you can forgive my transgression in not replying directly
Kind regards Geoff.
I cannot remember seeing it, will have a look for you.
Hi Tony
I've been looking through some threads. and have noted that you have a copy of AP119A-0601-0B. If you have, is it one from the 1970/80s and if so, does it have the colour scheme for the RAF Bloodhound Mk2 SAM (if memory serves it did, as I remember seeing a copy of the AP in the Missile Servicing Flight at West Raynham in the mid to late 1980s). You couldn't have a look for me and confirm if possiable?
Ah thanks for the notification Tony on the Slingsby wheel. The T61 parts don't fit other Slingsby's very well, as they are copied from a SF25 (we have two of them by the way in our shop, one is for parts). Thanks anyway,
My pleasure
thanks very much for the heads-up on the ebay link, i am now pretty sure that i want a canberra wing-tip tank, they have the correct look and vintage that i like. all you guys on the aviation forum have been great, thanks again, joe.

BP Says Asian Regulators Probing Potential Oil-Price Manipulation
European and U.S. Agencies Have Been Investigating Possible Unfair Competition
BP PLC said Thursday that regulators in Asia have joined European and U.S. agencies investigating potential manipulation of oil prices.
The U.K. oil company said in its annual report that in June 2013, the Japanese Fair Trade Commission sent an "initial request for information" from BP, and that the Korea Fair Trade Commission "initiated an investigation" in December. In January this year, BP said, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission also requested documents....

Rest and recovery might be the most important training you're not doing. And there's an explosion of products that want to help you do it better. Here's how to navigate the hype and get the most out of your body's natural rebuilding efforts.
Can you shop your way to faster recovery and pack in a few more quality workouts this week? With the proliferation of recovery beverages, bars, clothes and devices on the market, it seems like it: Just do this/wear that and you'll spring out of bed in the morning, ready for your next interval session.
Of course if it were that easy, we'd all be winning medals. So what does work to help you recover from a long or hard workout and get you ready to nail the next one?
"The world of recovery is a mixture of folklore and some science," says William Sands, Ph.D., former director of the Recovery Center at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. And, he says, a lot of "I saw an athlete do X so it must work" reasoning. "It's not always wrong, but much of the time it is. And unfortunately, a lot of the science that should be straightening out all of these recovery questions is still in the beginning stages," says Sands, who's currently the director of education at the National Strength and Conditioning Association. That means there's a big gray area for myths to grow in. Here's the truth about some of the more popular ones:
Myth: I don't really need all the recovery days my coach gives me.
Truth: Sure, tough workouts that leave you fatigued are essential to hitting your goals. But so are days and weeks when you're not doing that. "You dig the hole, and that's OK," says Sands. "But you have to fill the hole and then make a hill to improve your performance. The worst thing you can do is dig a hole and keep on digging. If you don't rest properly, you can sabotage your training."
"It's easy for athletes to think that if they're going hard, they're getting fitter. That's not true," says Matthew Weatherley-White, co-founder of a popular-among-pros online tool called Restwise that helps athletes know how recovered they are. "Hard work creates the conditions for physiological adaptations. And adaptation happens during recovery. If you don't hit the best stress-to-recovery balance, you're not optimizing your training."

As Brendon Ayanbadejo zeroes in on the most important football game of his career, the Baltimore Ravens linebacker can't help but think of home.
That's where his 22-month-old son, Amadeus Prime, awaits him. Amadeus is scheduled for surgery in the spring to correct a congenital heart condition known as Atrial Septal Defect (ASD). As much as Super Bowl XLVII means to Ayanbadejo, the health of his son is front and center.
"Really, nothing else is important," Ayanbadejo told Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports. "This is one of the biggest weeks of my life -- it's the pinnacle of professional greatness -- but if he's not healthy, then there is no greatness. After the operation, then I'll really celebrate."
Make no mistake, we're dealing with a proud father here. Ayanbadejo gushed as he described Amadeus to Silver, calling his child a "magnificent creature."
"He has the brightest blue eyes you've ever seen, and big, juicy lips," Ayanbadejo said. "And he's an incredibly smart kid. He potty-trained himself, two months ago; he just decided to take off his diaper and sit down on the toilet."
If you have the unique privilege of being a father, you know why this is a big deal. Three cheers for Amadeus.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Commerce Department on Monday set final anti-dumping duties on about $1 billion worth of residential washing machines from Mexico and South Korea in a case brought by American manufacturer Whirlpool.
The department said Mexican manufacturers were "dumping" the washers in the United States at prices 36.52 to 72.41 percent below fair market value and set duties accordingly.
It said South Korean producers were undercutting prices by 9.29 to 82.41 percent. The department also set countervailing duties of 0.01 to 72.30 on the South Korean washers to offset government subsidies it found in its investigation.
"This decision is an important victory for our 22,000 dedicated U.S. employees, the consumers we serve and the U.S. appliance industry," Marc Bitzer, president of Whirlpool's North America Region, said in a statement.
The duties were largely in line with preliminary levels announced earlier this year.
South Korean producers Daewoo, LG Electronics Inc, and Samsung were found to be dumping at prices 82.41 percent, 13.02 percent, and 9.29 percent, respectively, below fair market value.
Daewoo, which the Commerce Department said failed to cooperate in the investigation, was also hit with a 72.03 percent countervailing duty, while the two other companies received rates of below two percent.
Mexican producers Electrolux, Samsung Electronics Mexico and Whirlpool International received final anti-dumping duties of 36.52 percent, 72.41 percent, and 72.41 percent, respectively.
Whirlpool has previously said that it had stopped shipping washers from Mexico for sale in the United States and therefore would not have to pay any duties.
The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) must give final approval for duties to go into force. That vote is expected on Feb 1.
In another recent case involving Whirlpool, the Commerce Department awarded steep duties on refrigerator imports from Mexico and South Korea, but the ITC voted in April to block them from being imposed.

The Broward County high school athletic season came to a close Friday morning in Davie as more than 440 athletes were honored at the annual Miami Herald All-Broward Awards Breakfast at Signature Grand.
As was the case throughout the 2013-14 season, St. Thomas Aquinas and American Heritage took home the lion's share of the glory.
Presented by Doctors Hospital Center for Orthopedics & Sports Medicine and the Orange Bowl, Friday's breakfast was attended by approximately 900 people.
At the end of the morning, St. Thomas Aquinas won its 33rd consecutive All-Sports Award for Broward's large schools (Classes 8A-6A), with American Heritage winning the small-school honor for the fifth year in a row.
Of Broward County's 20 state championship teams this season, 12 came from Aquinas and Heritage.
The Raiders won six state championships this season, and track coach Alex Armenteros won the Female Coach of the Year award. Ryan Crozier, who was an all-state selection in football and a state champion in the discus, won Male Athlete of the Year.
Crozier, an offensive lineman who will attend Connecticut in the fall, became the ninth athlete from Aquinas to win the large school Male Athlete of the Year since the award was split in 2002 and the first since current University of Miami receiver Phillip Dorsett won in 2011.
The Raiders have had 24 athlete of the year winners since Chris Evert won the school's first such award in 1971-72. The Herald first started giving out awards in Broward County in 1965.
"We had a tremendous effort from our student-athletes in every sport," said Aquinas athletic director George Smith, whose school has won the Herald's All-Sports Award every year since 1982. "Our coaches did an excellent job, and our student body bought into what we were doing. We have great school support for our athletes. We just need to keep going. You win something like this, and the younger athletes feel it's on them to keep it going."
Said Armenteros: "We had a great season, the girls did well, as was expected. Year in and year out, we're a targeted team. When the coaches talk around the campfire, it's not always about winning the state championship anymore, it's about not losing it."
American Heritage also won six state titles and left with the boys' and girls' major sports award, as well as the overall All-Sports trophy for Classes 5A-1A.
First-year football coach Mike Rumph was honored as Broward's Male Coach of the Year after leading the Patriots to their first state title. Rumph had previously won Track Coach of the Year honors.
"It's a great feeling to have only been at Heritage a few years and for us to be able to accomplish so much," said Rumph, a former UM standout defensive back who was the Patriots' defensive coordinator for two years before being named head coach before the 2013 season.
"What I'm most proud of is our guys are going to great colleges. There's no better feeling than that. They're going to college for free. The state championship is great, and we'll be able to look back on it. But helping these kids with their future is the biggest thing."
Daeshon Gordon, who is headed to LSU, became only the second athlete from Northeast to be named Female Athlete of the Year, joining Cheryl Wilson (1983-84).
Gordon, whose goal is to participate in the next two Olympic Games, won state titles in both hurdles events and had times ranked among the top five nationally.
"I didn't expect to win this, but it just shows I did the hard work that was needed," Gordon said. "It'"s such an honor. All of the work brought a very special ending."
Of the four individual athletes honored as tops in the county, both Sagemont's Prince Ali and Pine Crest's Julia Montgomery — who won state cross-country titles as a freshman and sophomore — have a chance to return to the stage next year.
Ali, a junior, led Sagemont to its second state basketball title, an unblemished 33-0 record and a berth in the National High School Tournament in New York by scoring over 18 points per game.
Broward's Basketball Player of the Year for Classes 4A-2A, Ali has verbally committed to play at UConn in 2015-16.
"I think this is my greatest accomplishment so far," Ali said, "aside from being able to go to the University of Connecticut and winning a state championship with my teammates. It was a great year; we really connected as a team and did some great things. Now, my next goal is to become a McDonald's All-American. I definitely think I can do that."
The morning started with Broward's top scholar-athletes being honored, with Gianna Arrizurieta (American Heritage) and Eric Solomon (Western) winning the overall awards.
Arrizurieta, who is headed to Penn State, played volleyball and was an All-Broward selection in softball, helping the Patriots win the Class 5A state title. Arrizurieta finished with a 5.39 GPA and scored a 1850 on her SAT.
Solomon, who will attend Florida, played four sports at Western and was a three-time regional wrestling qualifier.

First Batch of Pictures for Halloween in the Black Lodge
What's a Red Room experience without Agent Cooper?
Here are the first set of photographs from Sunday's Party. The theme, as you know, was Halloween in the Black Lodge.
I'll be posting more images as the rainy afternoon goes on.
Having some technical difficulties with the site, so I can't put them into the Art Ghoullery just this moment. For now, here's some smaller versions while you wait for the originals to be posted.
In this set, you'll find sycamore trees at the entrance of the Black Lodge; Owls (of course); doughnuts (a bit fancier than what they had on the show); Tibetan rock throwing gear (to determine who "J" is/who killed Laura Palmer); a box of spiders for Leo Johnson; Waldo, the dead eye witness Mynah Bird; and the map from Owl Cave that tells folks how and where to find the Black Lodge.
More to come!
Things got crazy so please
Things got crazy so please excuse me for being late checking up on your blog posts... This is THE best theme idea ever!! Love! Love! Love! You did such a great job!

This remains my favorite proposal for the reuse of the High Line - a mile long lap pool. Nathalie Rinne, an architecture student in Vienna submitted the plan and as part of our 2003 Ideas Competition.
The simplicity of the idea, the singularity of use and the graphic way in which it was conveyed made it the favorite of the jury and one of four winners of the competition. I think the David Hockney swimmer helped also.

The cargo liner was delivered on schedule. It matched the color of the interior (Mazda5). I will certainly order matching mats for the front and rear vehicle area.
There are no customer reviews for this product
Reviewed By Thomas O (SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA) Reviewed for a 2013 Mazda 5 —4/11/2015 7:51 AM
Mats fit perfectly, and are FLEXY so easy to place and remove to clean. Little grabby pointy things on the bottom keep them from sliding, which is a plus. Diamond pattern is nice for trapping debris...especially sand (I live on the beach). The rubber is soft on bare feet too. Only drawback is the edges of mat are do not have extra ridges so that if there was a spill near the edge the liquid might go off the edge and into the carpet. Great price point compared to some of the other products.

YONKERS, N.Y. - A sizable section of the roof collapsed at the National Wholesale Liquidators store at the Mall at Cross County in Yonkers on Wednesday.
According to police, shortly after 11:45 a.m. on Wednesday morning, multiple agencies were dispatched to National Wholesale Liquidators following reports of a roof collapse that injured at least five people.
The nature of the injuries appears to be minor. The Yonkers Police Department, Fire Department and Emergency Service Units responded to the scene. All of the victims have been removed from the scene.
A worker in a Bobcat machine was doing work on the roof late on Wednesday morning, according to reports, before it caved into the shopping center. Employees at the store could not be immediately reached for comment.
Police have asked residents to avoid traveling in the area near Central Park Avenue and Mile Square Road. Keep following Daily Voice for more updates about Wednesday's roof collapse at the Mall at Cross County as they become available.

Kobe Bryant engineered a second-half comeback, helping the Los Angeles beat the New York Knicks 100-94 on Tuesday and extend the Lakers' winning streak to five games while lifting them to .500.
Bryant scored 34 points in his NBA-record 15th Christmas Day game and Metta World Peace added 20 points and seven rebounds while defending Carmelo Anthony, whose 34 points led the Knicks. Bryant, the league's leading scorer, has topped 30 or more points in nine straight games.
The Lakers improved to 14-14 — 9-9 under new coach Mike D'Antoni — and upped their holiday record to 21-18, including 13-9 at home.
The Knicks controlled most of the game behind Anthony and J.R. Smith, who had 24 points. But they struggled offensively in the fourth, when Anthony was limited to seven points and Smith had five.

Mark Giordano scored the winning goal 4:36 into overtime, and the Calgary Flames snapped a three-game home losing streak with a 3-2 victory over the Phoenix Coyotes on Friday night.
Curtis Glencross and Mikael Backlund combined to set up Giordano just inside the blue line. While goalie Mike Smith was screened, Giordano put a shot just inside the goal post. Smith just shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't see the puck.
Jiri Hudler and Lee Stempniak also scored for Calgary (15-21-4), which had lost six of seven.
In the overall NHL standings, Calgary pulled even with the Carolina Hurricanes, who are two points ahead of the Florida Panthers and Colorado Avalanche — the teams tied for last in the league.
Antoine Vermette and Keith Yandle scored for Phoenix (18-16-7), which earned three of six points on a three-game trip.
It was a costly loss for Phoenix, which is in a three-way tie just below the postseason cutoff in the Western Conference with Dallas and Columbus. The three teams trail eighth-place Detroit by two points. Phoenix and Columbus have seven games remaining. Dallas has eight games left.
Although Phoenix outshot Calgary 11-2 in the third period, the Coyotes hadn't had a dangerous scoring chance until Yandle took a diagonal pass from former Flames player Derek Morris. Yandle fired a one-timer from the faceoff circle that beat goalie Joey MacDonald over his glove to tie it 2-2.
Stempniak had put the Flames ahead 2-1 at 18:52 of the second period, scoring on a power play.
TJ Brodie's slap shot was partially stopped by Smith, but the puck trickled through. Stempniak raced to the net and poked the puck over the line for his first goal in 15 games..
Phoenix opened the scoring 1:29 in, before many in the announced sold-out crowd of 19,289 had settled into their seats. Vermette got to his own rebound and scored his 10th of the season from the top of the crease.
Calgary tied it 1-1 in the final minute of the first. From behind the net, Mikael Backlund centered the puck. It caromed off the skate of Hudler and got behind Smith.
It was the eighth goal of the season for Hudler, who was back in the lineup after missing two games because of an upper body injury.
Phoenix nearly took the lead in the second when Mikkel Boedker's slap shot off the wing was stopped. Alexandre Bolduc, who drove to the net, was robbed on the rebound as MacDonald scrambled across. Bolduc slammed his stick into the boards in disbelief.
MacDonald finished with 29 saves. Smith had 22 stops.
Smith made his fourth start in a row after returning from an upper body injury. He entered having stopped 93 of 95 shots in his previous three appearances.
Calgary lost veteran forward Alex Tanguay 6:42 into the second period when his knee buckled under him while he battled for the puck in the Coyotes' end. He was helped off the ice, and didn't put weight on his left leg.
NOTES: Before the game, Calgary signed of Ben Hanowski to a two-year, entry-level contract. Hanowski, 22, was acquired from Pittsburgh in the Jarome Iginla trade. His NCAA career just concluded when St. Cloud State lost Thursday in the semifinals of the Frozen Four. ... Dennis Wideman earned his 200th career assist on Stempniak's goal. ... Phoenix D Rostislav Klesla was a healthy scratch. ... Smith is two shutouts away from tying Bob Essensa and Sean Burke (15) for third on the Coyotes' franchise career shutouts list.

New Year New Us! 3 Challenges for People Living With HIV for This Year
By Patrick Ingram
January 14, 2014
So, bringing in 2014 there will be many of our loved ones, friends, family, colleagues and strangers who will be ready to begin their New Year Resolutions in hopes of completing them all by the end of the year. Let's be honest though, who ever completes every single New Year's resolution? This year I plan to do something different that I think will be successful and I invite you all to do the same.
I often tell people that my HIV diagnosis two years ago involved me going through a sort of metamorphosis. During this process I evolved as a person, on very physical, emotional and spiritual levels that were all for good. I saw things more clearly and made a point to go forward with any dreams I had. Can anyone relate? As an 18 year old in high school I wanted to do it all. From an officer in the United States Coast Guard, a professional tennis player, entertainer, author, a business owner and married to the most perfect partner with the most phenomenal family. I honestly wanted to have it all. As time went on and my dream of not making it in the military and my tennis lacking success, I began not to day dream as much about those potentials. Days that were once spent always day dreaming about my potential future became replaced with more "realistic ideas," that were more fitting of survival in this world. When I was diagnosed with HIV my life flashed before my eyes. Like I talk about in one of my first videos I could have easily not have opted to test for HIV. By not testing my plan was to remain in denial for the rest of my life. Due to this life-changing event I made a choice to look at all of my dreams again and find ways to make them happen.
How is this relevant many of you may ask? Well it is simple. As Brian Litrell says, "Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars." I looked at ways I can give back to my community (advocating and speaking out about different things that negatively affect it). Although there are policies that prevent me from serving in the military there is hope, and we should definitely continue to pressure Congress and the Department of Defense in allowing individuals living with HIV to serve their country. I also started playing a tennis league and also starting to look for opportunities like using YouTube for my video blogging, singing and other projects like the MTV documentary to entertain individuals from around the world. In 2014 I will also be focusing time on my book and creating a line of products I hope you all will enjoy.
I think it is important that we all reach out for our dreams and wants, no matter what they are. Illnesses or even failure should not keep us from fighting for what we want. If we pray on our dreams, continue to work on them, and have affirmations then they will happen. Affirmations are very important and Dr. Harra explains this very well in her Huffington Post article. Even if you are completing them at 50% that is better than never thinking you can.
My three challenges for you all this year are very simple:
These three simple things can reach literally every goal people make each year. I also think that to be able to accomplish these goals we have to have more realistic expectations. A perfect example is how in the first of the year gyms see an increase of activity that soon tapers off by February/March. By easing into to being physically active and going to the gym on a more consistent basis you start off small with goals like going at least 3 times a week for an hour or so, and then increasing it weekly with an additional day until you are going at a frequency that balances out in your everyday life. Writing my book has seriously resulted in nothing ever happening past a few sentences a quarter; however, now I will dedicate a few minutes out of the day to brainstorm and write a few things. The following month I will increase my writing to something more consistent and realistic to completing by the end of the year. Fixing interpersonal issues can take place with exes, ex-friends, lack of a father-son relationship, etc. They may not be enemies but I think that working on improving communication and ending conflicts helps to relieve stress and drama in one's life.
In 2014 will you work on reaching the moon by having reasonable expectations and progress that will take place over time? Or will you rush into something head on, burn out and give up halfway through? Again HIV does not mean we cannot accomplish our dreams, so we must make sure that we don't give up if we hit a brick wall. Breaking through that wall and overcoming our fears and anxieties about such possibilities will result in us having success on some level.
In this New Year and beyond it is important to simply do what is best for you. Also, keeping in mind that this also includes doing what is needed to manage your HIV and all other outside sources that may influence it. If anyone has issues with you or the healthier choices you are making to better yourself, then be the fabulous person you are and keep on strutting into the future!

Up until recently, the only way to get an iPhone on a prepaid plan was to "bring your own device" and live with it being unsupported. That approach had many pitfalls, like making sure that the phone was matched to the carriers network (GSM vs CDMA), getting the iPhone unlocked, and issues with compatibility of the applications with the carriers network.
There's now a new option, from Virgin Mobile, that makes getting a prepaid iPhone more straightforward. There are some upfront charges to contend with, but you may be able to reduce the cost with a Virgin mobile promo code. Here's how it works… Read the rest of this entry »

Abbott and costello meet frankenstein dvd
© 2018 You're going to have a good time in Colombia and its going to feel like a vacation, but you can't treat it as a vacation. Enjoying your companion only in vacation mode can skew the woman's perception of how her life will be in America, and it prevents you from experiencing how day to day life would be with her under normal circumstances. It's easy to have fun and get along when you're doing enjoyable activities, but how is she going to respond to day to day activities. We provide you a house to assist in such matters. Put yourselves in the role of husband and wife without using outside assistance (maid). Observe how she shops for food, cooks, cleans up afterwards, does the laundry, maintains the bedroom and living area, or how she helps you with any of these. What's her take on a simple walk together? You don't need an event to have a good time. You should be able to enjoy her company in the most mundane of places. Events can create distractions. Almost anyone can have a fun time at a fun place. For some guys they gage the fun time they have with a woman as a determinant of compatibility, when it is really just the outings that are creating the enjoyment, not the woman. If you only see your woman in play mode you are not going to know if she is going to be a responsible contributing member to the family. To determine such capabilities, casually provide her with multiple activities set at different times that require different degrees of effort to complete, and then determine if the results are acceptable to you. These activities would be everyday stuff you would expect from your partner. Some examples could include making particular arrangements prior to your visit, following a cooking recipe in Spanish that you are familiar with but that she is not, or having her buy something that fits the exact parameters you want. A foreign woman can love you very much, yet not function well when it comes to assisting you to the standard you expect.

Bike Thief Situation
Here's an interesting, if not disturbing, video where a cyclist catches a thief red-handed, but is not of the mindset or perhaps ability to take matters into his own hands. So he rightfully expects the nearby professional security guards to intervene, but to no avail.
Via Cyclelicio.us.
7 Comments
This one has been going around for a few years now.
The thief has been outed (at least his handle on the infamous rap forums) though I'm not sure what ever came of any of this.
Honestly, I'm really surprised the guy didn't get his ass beat, he's quite lucky. Situations like this, where one has solid evidence, the best bet is to get the hell out of there. He had the theif video taped, the threats video taped and the security video taped doing nothing. At that point, he should have left, contacted the authorities, contacted the mall and contacted the mall security.
This is surreal. I think the only person in this video with any common sense is the cyclist and frankly he is the only one with any brains. The thief is a punk and the security guards are worthless. I'll be thinking about this one for awhile.
I have to agree with Gabriel on this one.Dude should of beat feet.
its obvious why they didn't do anything.
This video is 2 years old… and ironically takes place in "The most bicycle friendly city in America" – Long Beach, CA
[...] Video found by Via Cyclelicio.us. I grabbed it from UrbanVelo [...]
Although security should have intervened, the guy should've shown a little appreciation for the other two guys (red shirt and black shirt), had they not run interference he probably would've been assaulted. Since they didn't see the lock being cut their reluctance is somewhat understandable, but just their presence seemed helpful because it came across like they would break-up a fight. Of course, there's also the possibility they were part of his bike-theft crew. Still, why didn't the guy call 911 right away?!

FREN 437 (IT) Female Voices in African Literature and Film (1)
This course surveys the literature and culture produced by African men and women in the last four decades focusing on female voicing and representation. How do African feminisms deal with issues of female subjecthood and agency in local contexts where culture, politics, social institutions and language are ensconced within dominant male narratives? How do African feminist discourses negotiate the strictures and structures of feminist internationalism while maintaining a specific African inflection?

The Scottish singer appears in "The Christmas Candle," a story of angels and wishes set in an English village in the 1890s.
Boyle's role has not been disclosed. In a statement, Boyle said she was enjoying filming and "everyone on set is a delight to work with."
The movie also stars British actors Lesley Manville, John Hannah and Susan Barks, who recently played Eponine in "Les Miserables." It is due for release later this year.
A shy church volunteer from a small Scottish village, Boyle became a global sensation in 2009 after she performed "I Dreamed a Dream" on the television program "Britain's Got Talent."
She has since sold millions of records around the world.

African activists and artists raise awareness around the Sahel food crisis
More than 18 million people across West and Central Africa are facing a food crisis. This is a fact.
18 million people are hungry and, along with aid organizations and their governments, are looking for solutions to feed themselves.
Oxfam is gearing up its response: we hope to reach 1.8 million people across Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal, and Gambia with humanitarian aid.
But we need to raise more money in order to do so. This week Oxfam received the support from a group of African activists, singers, writers and performers to raise awareness around the continuing food crisis that is now affecting the region.
An open letter from supporters of #Sahel2012
Dear world leaders,
"While we do our good works let us not forget that the real solution lies in a world in which charity will have become unnecessary."
So wrote the great African man of letters, Chinua Achebe, in his 1987 novel Anthills of the Savannah. His words should ring loud in the ears of those attending the Global Hunger Event in London this Sunday.
At the summit 'good works' will no doubt be done, which we will applaud, but for too long the dominant, if well meaning approach, has been the short term fix. We need to lift our ideas and open our eyes towards the new and changing Africa: a future where African children's experience of famine is only from history books.
Let us be clear. Parts of Africa are blighted by poverty, hunger, war, corruption and the vagaries of a harsh and changing climate. Today severe hunger is stalking a huge swathe of Africa from Senegal in the west to Chad, on through Sudan, all the way to Somalia in the east. More than 20 million people are affected.
These parts of this vast continent need our collective support. Immediate aid is needed.
But Africa also needs sustained long-term investment which helps people provide enough food for their families, build their own future, withstand the next challenge and lift their horizons beyond the latest crisis.
Let us also be clear that the solution lies in Africa - a continent of vibrant, talented, creative, and hard working people. Africans need a relationship with the rest of the world that treats them as who they are – equals, with something to offer.
Every one of us on this planet is descended from shared but distant ancestors. Whether from those who stayed, or from those who made those tentative steps out of the continent millennia ago, we are all African. Together we can make an African future where 'charity will have become unnecessary'.

Harlem's self proclaimed "pretty mother f*cker" has taken the viral Hip-Hop game by storm as of late. Making his debut on the scene with the infectious ode to Houston screw music, "Purple Swag," A$AP Rocky immediately raised eyebrows, taking all curious minds away from a slew of fellow recent viral stars, and placing the focus on his Uptown crew – who simply like to hold each other down, get high, drink brew, and kick it.
Then, his follow-up single dropped, the even better tune, "Peso," which found its way straight to New York radio airwaves as Hot 97 quickly adopted the loose hit. His eclectic grace makes most wonder how a young Harlem cat can bust on the scene with early Houston-influenced flows, "swaggy" bars similar to Wiz Khalifa, and a brotherhood lifestyle last depicted in the early '90s on the West Coast. Fond of Old English 40's and tied up gangsta-style bandannas – A$AP Rocky is going in for the kill, and he's bringing his crew alongside with him.
AllHipHop.com spent some time with the newly-signed artist at the Polo Grounds Music offices in Manhattan. In the first part of the interview, Rocky speaks on his rumored $3 million deal, his new label, A$AP Worldwide, and what venues that book him in the future need to know after his well-publicized Fader Fort performance/debacle during October's CMJ Music Marathon in New York City:

The rapidly rising star will soon be seen touring alongside Drake and Kendrick Lamar as part of the "Club Paradise Tour." In the second part of the interview, he shares his thoughts on his tour-mates' music before he compares Drake to "the modern day Jay-Z," and Kendrick Lamar to a combination of OutKast and Nas. He then comes up with an interesting comparison for himself involving two Hip-Hop titans and one Rock 'N Roll idol:

His first mixtape, Live.Love.Asap, released for free on Halloween, mostly features in-house production and guest verses coming from the likes of Clams Casion, A$AP Ty Beats, Spaceghostpurrp, and more. Aside from being a collective of rappers and producers, "the new kids on the block," as Rocky refers to all of the A$AP crew, includes a number of "fashion n*ggas," too. In the last part of the interview, he speaks on his mixtape and the entire A$AP movement:

During the interview, Rocky also revealed that he had recently directed the music video for Fool's Gold rapper Danny Brown's new single, "Blunt After Blunt." On the set, he shared that artists like Mos Def and Kendrick Lamar made appearances, as did comedian Dave Chappelle.

All Baby and Child Corporation (ABC), creators of the ABC Kids Expo, and the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA), the industry trade association dedicated to the safe selection and use of juvenile products, will remain independent and will not merge. However, the two non-profit trade organizations will continue their collaborative relationship, which has strengthened over the past two years. As part of this evolving relationship, the two organizations will continue to evaluate the ever-changing needs of the juvenile industry and how to best support all industry stakeholders.
ABC remains committed to ongoing funding of key industry strategic initiatives at least through March 2015, including the enhancement of more frequent communications to all industry stakeholders to increase consumer confidence in the juvenile products industry. Since discussions began early last year, the formation of a vibrant specialty retail trade group, Brixy, was launched and continues to be funded by ABC.
Additionally, JPMA achieved an important industry goal by establishing an office in Washington, D.C. to increase the effectiveness of advocacy efforts at federal and state levels in the best interests of manufacturers, retailers, and consumers. Ongoing initiatives included in the funding agreement include increasing the scope and effectiveness of safety standards, the JPMA Certification Program, and the value of membership with JPMA.
JPMA and ABC have had a collaborative relationship for many years and will continue to work hand-in-hand on a number of different industry matters. While the merger discussions will not continue, the ongoing evolution of the working relationship will remain in order to best support the manufacturer and retail communities.

The Medical Herbalist recognizes a broad range of relevant herbs for the cardiovascular system. As a group they are known as cardiac remedies. This is a general term for herbs that have an action on the heart. Some of the remedies in this group are powerful cardio-active agents such as Foxglove, while others are gentler and safer cardiac tonics such as Hawthorn and Linden Flowers. Cardio-actives owe their effects on the heart to active substances such as cardiac glycosides, thus having the both the strengths and drawbacks of these constituents. Cardiotonics have a beneficial action on the heart and blood vessels but do not contain cardiac glycosides.
Primary Actions for the Cardio-Vascular System
Cardiac Tonic: Hawthorn
Cardio-active: Lily of the Valley, Scots Broom, Bugleweed, Figwort
Circulatory Stimulant: Cayenne
Peripheral Vaso-dilator: Prickly Ash, Ginkgo
Hypotensive: Linden Blossom, Mistletoe, Garlic
Hypertensive:Scots Broom
Diuretic: Dandelion leaf, Yarrow, 'Cardio-actives'
Vascular Tonic: Horsechestnut, Buckwheat, Ginkgo
Nervine: Motherwort, Linden Blossom, Valerian, etc.
Anti-spasmodic : Cramp Bark, Valerian
Lifestyle & Risk Factors
Half the annual mortality in Western society results from heart and blood-vessel diseases and so any contribution that herbal medicine can make to its treatment is to be welcomed. Heart disease is often the result of an inappropriate life style; stress, diet, belief system, alcohol etc. etc.. Preventative measures are by far the best, but are people willing to change? This raises questions that herbal medicine cannot answer!
The origins of heart disease are complex and confusing. Some of the factors involved are well known and can lead to clear guidelines for possible prevention, but simplistic statements about saturated fats or jogging can be misleading. A number of factors that contribute to the scourge of heart disease have been identified and as many of the pathologies that assail the cardiovascular system share these components, similar preventive strategies apply as well.

"CCP antibodies may occur in the blood long before the onset of symptoms."
Axis-Shield plc, an international in vitro diagnostics company based in Dundee, Scotland, has received marketing clearance from the FDA for an assay for anti-CCP, used in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), to run on Abbott's Architect® family of automated immunoassay analyzers.
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of the lining of the joints, causing pain and disability. It affects approximately one in every 100 people of all races and ethnic groups.
The introduction of tests recognizing antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP) has caused a revolution in rheumatology. The antibodies may occur in the blood long before the onset of symptoms, and it is believed the anti-CCP test:
• Is superior to rheumatoid factor (RF) regarding diagnostic specificity for RA,
• And is often associated with potentially more severe disease course and outcome.
The European Union League against Rheumatism (EULAR) has added the anti-CCP test to its diagnostic criteria for early-stage RA. Recent U.S. studies have also advocated the inclusion of anti-CCP testing into the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) guidelines for diagnosing RA.
Abbott launched the Architect® anti-CCP assay in non-US markets earlier this year and it will introduce the test in the USA later this month [October 2009].
Ian Gilham, Axis-Shield CEO, commented: "We are pleased to have received FDA clearance for this proprietary assay for RA on a major laboratory system. We believe this will help to address the growing demand for the anti-CCP test in the important American market and allow larger volume batch testing. Rheumatoid arthritis is a potentially debilitating disease and early disease diagnosis facilitates improved treatment options and offers substantial patient benefits."

Keep it simple
The Philips D135 Cordless Phone with built-in answering machine packs essential functions in a fresh and engaging design. Excellent sound reproduction and easy plug-and-play lets you enjoy every conversation with great clarity and ease. See all benefits
Automatic Volume Control offsets variations in sound signal, which can be caused by distance, signal strength or the caller's phone — so what you hear always remains consistent. Reducing the audio amplification for strong signals, and increasing it for weak ones, means you can enjoy a smooth conversation without unwanted sound volume variation.
Sometimes it's good to know who's calling before you answer. And our Caller ID lets you keep track of who's on the other end of the line.
Ultimate convenience through easy set up. Simplified installation - Plug and Play product
Philips phones are energy efficient and designed to be respectful to the environment.
Enjoy easy setup, navigation and control with intuitive menu available in local languages.
The rear of the handset is treated with a special texture for added comfort and better grip.
Our optimised antenna layout ensures strong and stable reception, even in areas of the house where cordless transmission is difficult. Now you can take a call wherever you are in the house, and enjoy a long, uninterrupted conversation even as you walk around.
Our telephones use parametric equalisation in the digital sound processing to fine tune the sound response back to the intended linear frequency response curve, delivering sound that is pure and clear, for each conversation.
We test the sound quality of our DECT phones the same way as high-end headphone manufacturers do. Using an advanced ear simulator, we can accurately re-create the way people actually hear. This helps our acoustic engineers to measure and fine-tune things like frequency response, distortion and overall hearing perception, to create perfect voice reproduction.

I have a theory about the price structure
I think there are a list of different prices where the parts person can quote any of them. They do it based on what they think you will pay. At Alderson in Lubbock, I had made several visits there where I was quoted outrageous parts prices over MSRP. The parts specialists then made the realization that I was smarter than I looked (a man in a suit) and then began quoting MSRP. Since they don't sell parts below MSRP, I buy parts at Moritz when I am in town.

As a follow up... why not use Casterol Syntec -
It is also approved by BMW for all new models requiring synthetic oil and it is much cheaper. Walmart sells a 5qt container for $19.00 and change. I have been paying ~4.40qt for years at Cosco for this oil. I have used this or Red Line in all my cars since the mid '80's with zero problems. I recently put 100K miles on a Jeep V8 5L - no leaks, usage or any other problems. Now have 80K on Volvo turbo - same story.
And Syntec 10-40 is in my '01 e38 as we speak - no problems. An oil change with filter runs around $40.00. (Breakfast not included)

Re: Dallas Dealers are Screwing us!!! (long)
Hey, how much did you pay for that car? Is it a lease deal?
You're bitching about oil price?
Buy it from the west coast for $9.00/litre. By the time you pay shipping and considering the time ordering it will cost you more. Or make the drive to Arlington to save a few bucks (nothing against Moritz).
If you are really shopping just to have some oil on hand for top up you sure are wasting a lot of time.
I'm a former employee of both John Roberts (now Dallas BMW/AutoNation) and Moritz BMW. I'm amazed at people who will spend big bucks for a car and then nickel and dime on maintenance/parts expense.
Pissed off about dealer gouging? What did you expect when you bought your BMW?
Get a life, and sell the car before the warranty expires!
Hey Tom...
Hey Tom glad you could chime in. I'm not sure what is the exact point of your post. We are to understand that you have worked at a couple of local BMW dealerships.
I have owned enough BMWs to make a few of your paychecks and from your attitude I'm kind of disappointed about having put food on your table.
I have no issue paying for the upkeep on my car. In fact, I'm an over achiever when it comes to the proper care and feeding of my cars.
I do take issue for the dealers that are extorting from us excessive markups beyond MSRP. I find it to bad business and unethical. If you approve of these unethical business practices that's your choice and it speaks loudly about your character.
Re: Hey Tom...
I have not visited here for a while.
Is this a reply to my post? If so, my name it Tim, not Tom.
"I have owned enough BMWs to make a few of your paychecks and from your attitude I'm kind of disappointed about having put food on your table."
I have not worked at a BMW dealership for years so I'm not concerned about you putting food on my table. I was too disappointed about culling scraps from people with miserable attitudes.
"I do take issue for the dealers that are extorting from us excessive markups beyond MSRP. I find it to bad business and unethical. If you approve of these unethical business practices that's your choice and it speaks loudly about your character."
What the hell is MSRP? What's the MSRP on a gallon of gas or a head of lettuce? Are you suggesting price controls? Is this not a free market economy? (I'll guess you might be Republican.) Since you so freely disparage my character take a jab at yours: What business are you in? Do you ever feel tempted to charge as much as the market will bear? If dealer markup bothers you so much go buy some Mobil 1 and do the oil change yourself. It won't kill you or the car.
Choices do speak loudly about character and if you are so concerned about dollars and cents why the hell are you driving a BMW?

Hou: have had both extremes on this topic....
Same named dealer just different locations. One location will comp a single liter of top-off oil under warranty. The other one charged me the $15/liter price on an unscheduled oil change once. I had to call the other location and get a quote, then explain to the SA that their sister dealership is only charging the $8 price. All the prices are pumped, you just have to know to call them on it.

Re: Hey Tim...
MSRP stand for "Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price"
Several factors come into play for this figure. MOST of the time products are sold WELL below MSRP.
""What business are you in? Do you ever feel tempted to charge as much as the market will bear?""
The only reason the market "bears" their prices is because most BMW owners are in the catagory you are tyring to cram the OP into. They have pleny muny and will write a check for whatever the Dealerships tells them. Now you have the dealership who is takeing advantage of Naive people who wont spend the time to see if they are gettin ripped off or not.
""Choices do speak loudly about character and if you are so concerned about dollars and cents why the hell are you driving a BMW? ""
Damn, could you be more assinine? So somne who appreciates a fine piece of engineering connot be frugal? Are you saying he should pay WHATEVER the dealership ask without question? What makes you assume because somone drives a BMW that they spent gobs of money on it?
I drive a BMW. I didnt spend a bunch of money buying it. Ive done lots of work to get it in the condition it is in, but all along the way ive looked for the best prices and done all the work myself. What the hell is wrong with that?

Ask For Book list Pricing...BMW of Dallas
When you purchase your maintance products at BMW of Dallas, request for "Book-List" pricing before the PartsSpecialist entrs it on the computer. You will get MSRP pricing ALL the time. Pricing is regulated automatically by the "Autonation" ADPPC system network, so Parts guy has to override the system. When they;re in a hurry out of habit they don't overide to " Book list"... try it. They are even closer(miles)then Moritz...and more knowledgable. I deal with a couple guys there, very friendly. Remember though before they enter info into the PC, ask for Book list..
This coming from a former employee...
This coming from a former employee of a DFW BMW dealer really opens the picture on how or why the dealer behavior to overide the MSRP.
Nothing wrong with it really, from your point of view, its cents here and there. In truth a dealer may overide the MRSP as it pleases.
It comes down to the customer to be aware, and this e-mail is just that, an awareness on the behavior of DFW BMW dealers.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with Roy trying to get a fair price.
We have the same problem in Houston and with Porsche its even worse.

Village president says comments about auto auction have no value
East Dundee Trustee Allen Skillicorn says results of a survey he mailed out show most of its respondents don't want an auto auction business in town, but Village President Jerald Bartels says the survey has no value.
Insurance Auto Auctions, which sells totaled vehicles to the highest bidder, hopes to build a 12,000-square-foot building and 34 acres of outdoor storage north of Route 72 at Commonwealth Drive in a reclaimed gravel pit. Skillicorn and some residents from neighboring Barrington Hills oppose the business because they fear leaking fluids from the vehicles will contaminate groundwater.
Skillicorn mailed his quarterly "East Dundee Dispatch" newsletter in December to 1,700 addresses with an enclosed survey. He compiled the newsletter and paid $215 for its postage.
Of the 100 people who responded, 75 wrote they're opposed to IAA, even though the survey never asked them to weigh in on the company.
"I didn't ask about (IAA) and people cared enough to write it in," Skillicorn said. "The fact that it's not ... an option (on the survey) tells me there's not a lot of support for it."
The survey had nothing to do with IAA, and Bartels can't understand why Skillicorn is trumpeting results for a question that was never asked.
In the newsletter, Skillicorn discusses his opposition to IAA and updates the people on other issues. The survey asks whether the village should ban video gambling and to rate, in order of importance: freezing the property tax levy, attracting a new grocery store and improving the streets, roads and planting trees.
Bartels also said several merchants who fought for video gambling were upset about the survey because it gave the impression that it's still up for debate, though the board approved video gambling last fall. Skillicorn, who opposed video gambling, said he asked that question to see whether there was enough support to repeal the measure.
Bartels suspects Skillicorn has greater political ambitions, pointing to his trips to Springfield and a radio show which focuses on politics and current events.
"I believe Allen has aspirations of a political career beyond East Dundee, and this is nothing more than a steppingstone to advance his political agenda," Bartels said.
Skillicorn said if he had interest in a higher office he would have gone after Bartels' seat.
"I'd probably be running for mayor because he doesn't seem to get it on taxes and spending and subsidizing an auction yard that the people don't want," Skillicorn said.
IAA is working with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to mitigate pollution concerns. East Dundee is expected to take a final vote later this month or in February.
"We're looking forward to being a good business partner in the East Dundee area," IAA spokeswoman Jeanene O'Brien said.
