This is a thread dedicated to the whereabouts and rumblings of our favorite funny-haired former Wizard,
Peter "Party" John Ramos
Birthdate: May 23, 1985
Height: 7' 3"
Weight: 290 pounds
Country of Origin: Puerto Rico
Amazingness: Infinite.
6' 8" at the age of 15, Peter John Ramos caught the attention of scouts because of his incredible height. He soon became playing for a professional team in Puerto Rico, despite his lack of basketball skills/general intelligence. He started to learn the basics of basketball during his first year on the team and quickly showed the skills that would make him a star for years to come. He progressed quickly and earned team MVP honors in leading his high school team to 2 championships. Ramos also won Most Improved Player in 2002.
During the summer of 2004, Ramos announced his intentions to enter the NBA draft. Many experts had him tabbed as a mid to late first rounder. He ultimately ended up as a second round selection, 32nd overall and a steal, by the Washington Wizards, a team desperate for big man help. He struggled in his initial NBA season.
Because of his lack of production, the Wizards sent him down to the D-League at the start of the 2005-06 season. There he became an all-star and the greatest 7 foot tall Puerto Rican shot-blocker in D-League history. He was rewarded with a call-up to the NBA, which lasted 2 phenomenal days before he was eventually waived by the Wizards in 2006.

Hello Everyone! My name is Sarah Binder. I have always been fit and than got off the path of fitness during college for a little while. Now I'm back at it and recently, like January, starting to more weight lift training and continue to this day while doing all sorts of exercises.
I have been vegan for a little over 2 years now!! I converted out of curiosity and bound to see if it would help with my digestive issues. I have had several surgeries growing up and had never been to big of a meat eater. When I began my journey as a vegan I did an 11 week raw cleanse challenge. Now I do several raw food cleanses all the time and HIGHLY believe in the magic of raw foods!
GOALS: Currently I'm doing a challenge group with the new program of FocusT25, so I would say a BIG goal for me is to complete the challenge and continue on with the third phase which is more weight training. Now long term goals, like within a year, would be 1. Competing in a bikini figure competition. 2. Releasing a recipe EBook. One of my everyday goals is to inspire others to reach for their maximum health and fitness. Another everyday goal is to save lives (I'm a registered nurse).
INTERESTS: Weight Lifting, Yoga, Dance, High Intensity Workouts (boxing, insanity, t25, etc) Beach Life, Mother Nature, Knitting, Making hemp jewelry (necklaces, bracelets), Coaching, Saving Lives (RN), Personal Development Books, Vampires (Twilight, TrueBlood,Underworld, etc.), Hikes, Waterfalls, Creating Raw Food....
Hardcore Vegan - Beginning Journey To Competing
Introduce yourself. Tell us about your training history, how long you've been vegan, share some of your goals and some of your interests.

By David Schwartz
(Reuters) - An Arizona politician caught in an FBI bribery sting was spared prison time by a federal judge on Wednesday after pleading guilty to accepting tickets to sporting events in exchange for political favors.
Paul Ben Arredondo, who for nearly two decades served as a state lawmaker and city councilman, will serve 18 months of home arrest and a total of three years' probation under the sentence by Judge Frederick Martone in U.S. District Court in Phoenix.
Arredondo, 65, pleaded guilty in October to two felony counts of mail fraud under a plea agreement reached with federal prosecutors.
In the plea he admitted to taking tickets to college and professional games and tables at charity events from representatives of a fictitious development company created by the FBI beginning in February 2009. He was a councilman at the time.
The plea agreement states Arredondo in return used his clout as a Tempe, Arizona, councilman and later as a state legislator to help acquire city-owned property, divulging confidential information on tactics and sale price to pave the way for development.
Arredondo also was found to have used a scholarship fund to help pay for family members to attend Arizona education institutions without telling investors. The fund was created in his name in 2001.
Under the plea deal, the Democratic lawmaker also resigned from the state House of Representatives effective immediately. His term would have expired this month and he was not running for re-election.

The Obama administration's hands-off approach to Israel's ongoing offensive in Gaza is emblematic of what analysts see as an evolving diplomatic approach that's easing the United States out of its longstanding role as chief referee for Middle Eastern conflicts.
For more than a year, analysts say, American diplomats have adopted a more laissez-faire stance, which was accelerated by the Arab Spring and its new crop of leaders who are eager to prove themselves on the world stage without the old order's dependence on U.S. backing. The Obama administration appears only too happy to bequeath its former role to allies such as Egypt and Turkey; U.S. officials are vocal about the plan to disengage from the Middle East and focus on less troublesome parts of the world.
"The United States has checked out of the issue and essentially has ceded the arena," said Khaled Elgindy, a former adviser to Palestinian peace negotiators and now a fellow at the Brookings Institution, a research center in Washington. "I don't think they're appearing to be absent – I think they are absent."
The State Department also seems to have decided that more distance – from Middle Eastern allies and enemies alike – might spare the government from getting too entangled in high-stakes conflicts that drag on for months or years. U.S. diplomats already have been burned by what some critics consider an overzealous early approach to the Arab protest movements: Backing a weak and divided government in Libya, riling up wary Egyptians by funneling money to pro-democracy groups too soon after the revolt that toppled Hosni Mubarak, and calling for regime change in Syria with no clear strategy for U.S. involvement.
Some analysts say the United States is wise to stay on the sidelines in the Arab struggle for self-determination after a long era of autocrats, many of whom were close U.S. allies. Even before the Arab Spring, they said, the U.S. government was subtly disengaging from the Middle East, and especially from the endless Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"It's part of a broader rethinking of American priorities, part of this 'pivot' to Asia and the Pacific which better suits their interests," Elgindy said. "This region has been nothing but trouble for a long time."
Egypt is central to the U.S. goal of easing its focus from the Arab world, but it comes with a big gamble: trusting newly elected Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, a Muslim Brotherhood stalwart who now must balance Egypt's shared security interests with Israel against domestic pressure to show solidarity with the Palestinians.
So far, Morsi has won praise for his maneuvering, which hasn't crossed the United States' red lines. While Morsi has allowed dozens of foreign reporters and Egyptian aid workers to cross into Gaza from Egypt, he's kept out an influx of Palestinians, just as did his predecessor, Mubarak. While Morsi withdrew the Egyptian ambassador to Israel to protest civilian casualties in Gaza, he hasn't expelled the Israeli ambassador to Cairo.
And anything as drastic as threatening the Camp David accord, Egypt's peace treaty with Israel, seems off the table – the Egyptians don't want responsibility for Gaza and already are dealing with the conflict's cross-border effects of weapons smuggling and militant organizing. Morsi's biggest test will be whether he can pull off a cease-fire inked in Cairo.
"The U.S. is allowing the Egyptians to take the lead on this because they believe the Egyptians will be pragmatic and can deliver Hamas and won't contravene Camp David," said Leila Hilal, who spent years as a legal adviser to the Palestinian negotiating team and is now director of the Middle East Task Force at the New America Foundation, a research center in Washington.
"Now, the thinking is: Egypt can play that role and Israel will have to accept it. It's the new regional order," Hilal said. "This is an intention to back off and decrease American engagement in the region, not necessarily as a dismissive approach, but more, 'Why not let Egypt be the counterpart to Israel?' They're the neighbors, and they have a clear set of interests the U.S. appreciates."
The old model of U.S. engagement was "hub and spoke," with the United States at the center of regional players, said Michael Singh, who served as a senior Middle East director for the National Security Council during the George W. Bush administration and is now managing director of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. Even regional neighbors dealt with one another largely via American interlocutors, he said.
Now, Singh said, the hub has fallen out, and as a result, smaller groupings of Arab and allied states are emerging to vie for that central role – Turkey and Egypt, for example, or the Persian Gulf powers such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
But Singh said ceding the leadership role could be detrimental to long-term U.S. interests in the Middle East, which is still an important oil supplier and source of militant groups that aim to attack U.S. interests.
Singh said that U.S. leaders "don't have the choice of ignoring the Middle East," though that certainly seemed to be the message from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's speech Saturday at the beginning of a tour of Southeast Asia. Clinton told an audience in Singapore that economics would be at the heart of a new U.S. foreign policy, to include a much-touted Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement.
"Amid everything going on, she gives a speech basically saying that our future's in Asia, not in the Middle East," Singh said. "We have to recognize that we have enduring interests in this region."
After so many years as the main driver in the Middle East, the U.S. shift to backseat diplomacy is sure to be bumpy. On Monday, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland tried to defend the administration's "quiet diplomacy" during a relentless line of questioning from Associated Press reporter Matt Lee, a notoriously hard-nosed journalist who'd challenged her on the U.S. "silence" on Gaza.
Israel has pounded Gaza with airstrikes for six days, killing at least 101 Palestinians, the majority of them civilians, in a campaign against Hamas, the militant group that controls the strip. In the same period, three Israelis died as a result of a rocket that was launched from Gaza and struck an office building. At least 100 more rockets were launched Monday, with no casualties reported. Regional tensions, already exacerbated by the Syrian civil war and rocky transitions in North Africa, are dangerously high.
"Well, you've been doing your quiet diplomacy for almost a week. How's it going so far?" Lee asked the spokeswoman, his voice oozing sarcasm.
Nuland tried to respond, but Lee cut her off, saying, "You're staying silent while people are dying left and right." The spokeswoman accused Lee of picking a fight and quickly moved on to another reporter after repeating the administration's Gaza talking points: Israel has the right to defend itself, and the United States regrets civilian casualties on both sides.
"We've made a decision that we need to engage in our diplomacy diplomatically," Nuland said.
Jonathan S. Landay in Washington contributed to this report.

What to CookAmanda & Merrill
Peanut Butter Cookies
- Merrill
So, this post is coming a little late in the game. For months now, Amanda has been saying I should write a blog post about all of the cravings I've had over the course of my pregnancy. (For those of you who have been asking, I'm due January 15th, and we're expecting a little girl.) And for months I've resisted.
Perhaps this is because, for the most part, my cravings haven't been all that weird. Sure, for the first few months when I wasn't feeling great, I subsisted on lemonade and pickles, and there was that brief phase where I simply had to stop and get an order of Rickshaw dumplings on my way home from the office most nights (my pre-dinner dinner). But for the most part, I've been enjoying most of the same food I normally eat -- just slightly more of it.
The one thing I have craved pretty much consistently over the past 8 months is cookies. I've always liked cookies of pretty much all sorts, but lately they've become a bit of an obsession -- especially when I can enjoy them with a tall glass of milk. Over the next few weeks, as I approach my due date, I thought I'd share some of my all-time favorite cookie recipes with all of you. I figured the timing couldn't be better with the holidays already upon us, and it's great excuse to revisit some of the cookie recipes from my childhood, which were made with love and dexterity by my wonderful mother.
What I'd really like, though, is for all of you to share your favorite pregnancy craving stories in the comments section below -- and, if you're feeling up to the challenge, add any craving-inspired recipes to FOOD52. Got a great lemonade up your sleeve? Fantastic hot fudge sundae? Something genius using pickles and/or peanut butter? We want to see these creations! And keep in mind, we're always on the hunt for Wildcards... Just sayin'.
Adapted from The Fannie Farmer Cookbook
Makes about 4 dozen cookies
- 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (not the unsweetened kind)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup all-purpose flour

Do Your Chain Hang Low by Young Jibbs
Did you know?
What is a piano? A musical instrument with a keyboard as its main part played by the means of the keys of the keyboard is known as a piano. This instrument ranks among the most used and most well known musical instruments through out the world. The use of the piano is especially rampant in any form of classical Western music. The instrument used to be the most common musical instrument to be found in 18th and 19th century homes and playing piano used to be the regular form of entertainment. In modern times the piano is regularly used for performances and ensemble employment. It is also a regular as an accompaniment for the contemporary music being produced today. Recently, it has become more of a fad to take piano lesson. Playing piano is also known to aid music composition and rehearsal and hence the piano is popularly used for these purposes. (More...)

Hidden Netflix Gems: 'Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie'
It's Saturday night and you need something to watch. Never fear, Hidden Netflix Gems is a new weekly feature designed to help you decide just what it should be, and all without having to scroll through endless pages of crap or even leave the house. Each choice will be available for streaming on Netflix Instant, and the link below will take you to its page on the site. Look for a new suggestion here every Saturday.
This week's Hidden Netflix Gem: "Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie" (2012)
Everyone who's kept up with Cartoon Network's Adult Swim comedy block over the past few years has heard of Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim, the masterminds behind "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" And everyone who's watched the show knows that after seeing it you'll a) never be able to watch commercials the same way again, and b) notice how much influence these two fellas have had over what is now considered "mainstream" comedy.
"Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" was a sketch show that ran from 2007 to 2010. It was freakin' weird, to say the least, and its surrealistic, satirical humor mocking advertisements, public-access television, and everything in between has since spawned a spin-off, "Check It Out with Dr. Steve Brule," which stars John C. Reilly, and the full-length feature "Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie" (B$M).

Today I'm quite pleased with myself, and I don't see anything wrong with announcing it!
- I attending my niece's cooking demonstration at her school. It was called 'Cafe for a Day', and the girls got into pairs and cooked lunch with dessert for the parent that could make it, or parent-substitute (that was me). Spaghetti with a tomato and basil sauce, parmesan crisps and coffee tiramisu, at a bench set with table cloth and all. Very nice!
- I then paid a visit to the President of the Ku-Ring-Gai Orchid Society to show him how to update the website I set up for them a couple of years ago. Have a look in a few days and see how he's going – www.kuringaiorchidsociety.org.au. It's the best time to visit such an exceptional orchid grower, with so many orchids in flower!
- I then finished, yes finished, the client research and report that has been hanging around for months. My illness and lack of knowledge of, and access to, Queensland records, got in the way, and I sat down yesterday and systematically went through all the digitised records that are now available on Ancestry, World Vital Records, the Queensland State Archives, the State Library of Queensland, and Judy Webster's website and wrote a list. Actually more of a worksheet. As a result of all this research I had a breakthrough.
A good day.
Tomorrow, back to the essay.

26 Critics
When three desperate ex cons are offered a job by a Mexican mob boss, they know they should refuse, but the payoff's too rich to turn down. All they have to do is kidnap the kid of a colleague who's ripping the mob boss off. But the abduction goes awry when the kidnappers are forced to kill an unexpected intruder who turns out to be the child's father – the very man the mob boss intended to extort. Now unwelcome in the underworld and on the run for murder, the ex cons find themselves as the most wanted fugitives in the City of Angels. And each vows that none of them will ever go back to prison. No matter what the cost. [Synopsis courtesy of Cannes Film Festival]

China Glaze Metro (Uptown) Collection
China Glaze Nail Lacquer: Brownstone, CG in the City, City Siren
China Glaze Metro Collection: Uptown
China Glaze Uptown Collection ($2.99 to $5.99, depending on retailer, for 0.5 fl. oz.) contains six shades: Brownstone (burnt terracotta crème), CG in the City (glittering dusty purple, bronze and silver multi-tonal glitter), City Siren (deep, red crème), Street Chic (gorgeous beige crème), Traffic Jam (raspberry pink crème), and Urban-Night (rich purple crème).
- Brownstone is a browned red cream. It was opaque in two coats, but one was quite dense in color. It's darker and less brown compared to MAC Sly as a Fox and Nubar Sateen. Chanel Fatale and Essie Limited Addiction are redder and not as dark.
- CG in the City contains light purple, purple, bronze, and silver glitter suspended in a clear base. I used three coats for swatches, so you can see how opaque it gets (not entirely). Given the clear base, I imagine it's meant more for layering than as a standalone product. Rescue Beauty Lounge Frugalista is denser and the particles are larger–plus it's silver and fuchsia, so they're not really similar in color either, but it was the closest I could think of.
- City Siren is a deep, red cream with a subtle blue base. I used two coats, but one was nearly opaque. It's cooler in tone and looks more red than Chanel Fatale and Essie Limited Addiction.
- Street Chic is a grayed, mushroom brown cream. It was opaque in two coats. Rescue Beauty Lounge Decorous is similar in base color, but it has shimmer and a cooler undertone. Both NARS Bad Influence and Nubar Chiffon are grayer, more taupe than brown.
- Traffic Jam is a raspberry cream that is opaque in two coats. This is like a juicy raspberry jelly to me (obviously, jam is on the brain from the name!). The color reminds me of the base color of Cult Nails Iconic but Traffic Jam is slightly more berry than red. I think Zoya Ciara may be similar, but I don't have a photo to compare it to.
- Urban-Night is a darkened eggplant purple with a cream finish. This was opaque in two coats. It seems similar to Orly Plum Noir. Rescue Beauty Lounge Recherche is much darker and less red-toned.
With the exception of CG in the City (which is a glitter in a clear base), I only needed two coats for opaque color coverage. I typically get a week of wear out of China Glaze's formulas, both for creams and glitters. The glitter will be difficult to remove, like any other glitter-based polish, if worn alone and as densely as shown in the swatches, so I recommend soaking a piece of felt in remover and pressing against the nail for 15-20 seconds, then pull to remove. I used Zoya's Anchor and Armor for base/top coats for all swatches.
The formula of the five creams here was good overall. Street Chic was a touch thick, while the others were thinner without being watery. The polish spread evenly without streaking and drying time was about average.

We thought that a great way to welcome the New Year would be with another brand new design customization! Today's design is timely too with shimmering foil details! The brilliant foil frame on both versions demonstrate two beautiful ways to present the invitation to your wedding day with touches of modern glamour.
Our Kensington design and the brand new design variation were chosen by blogger and wedding planner Allison at Engaged & Inspired as one of her favorite new designs. We agree with Allison that adding foil stamping to your wedding invitations gives you "a little something extra special" to present to your guests!
The delicate foil stamped border on our original Kensington wedding invitation design is reminiscent of gold jewelry and catches the light like a diamond ring. Inspired by the styles of the 30s and 40s this suite sets the tone for an affair that is stylish and classic. For the variation, we wanted to play with a few of the details to create a slightly different feel, but one that is just as stunning!
Here are the fine details, with a few design tips along the way, to help you customize your very own letterpress wedding suite!
Ink Palette: The change in the letterpress ink color on the new customization is subtlety at its best! We swapped out the fuchsia from the original design for our taupe letterpress ink. Using a classic neutral gives your invitation a very traditional feel. Taupe is a great, on-trend choice, but the same look can be created with many colors in our letterpress ink palette – black, charcoal or metal gray, silver or gold or a warm tone like cafe or cocoa.
Motifs, Borders and Patterns: We took our own advice when it came to selecting the perfect border for this new design. As we mentioned in a previous post, if you love a design, stick with the overall layout, but play with the details! This new design incorporates a frame with lots of layers. From dots in tiny rows to the streamers of dots radiating to the edges of the card, the frame on the new design variation gives a very festive feel!
Fonts: As you know from our previous posts, fonts and typefaces can be a very personal choice. We have a large selection to choose from, so you can really have fun with this element. We have fonts that range from casual to very formal. The font on the original Kensington design is a modern sans serif that is a great match for the bright ink and glowing foil frame. For the new design customization, we chose a more traditional mix to pair with the new neutral letterpress ink color. The twist with this design is that the body of the copy is in a script and the names of the bride and groom are in a bold all caps typeface. The trend of mixing fonts on a wedding invitation has been popular for some time, but swapping out where the script and all caps fonts are used, is a fun update on this trend.
We've been saving the best for last! The embellishments on this new Kensington design variation really pull everything together. Beyond the custom elements listed above, you can also add on any number of embellishments. You can see all of the details available in our online Design Library or in-person when you visit one of our Exclusive Retailers. Here are the embellishments that complete this invitation:
Foil Stamping: How gorgeous is the blush colored foil on the new invitation design?! We know that everyone is loving foil stamping these days as a great way to add a little sparkle to your wedding invitation suite. Our colored foils are a way to take that one step further and we have an array of colored foil options to suit any wedding color palette.
Colored Paper: To create the more romantic look of the new design customization, changing things a bit from the modern contrast of the bright fuchsia ink color on our brilliant white stock, we chose the London Fog gray colored paper as the background for our blush colored foil and taupe letterpress ink. We have a large collection of colored papers in our Design Library for you to choose from. And, if you don't see a shade that matches your palette perfectly, just ask us, we can always complete a search for the best match! Tip: we do always struggle to use the word "perfect" when it comes to color since we feel that very often "complementary" colors can be much more beautiful than an exact match. Don't worry though, along with our Exclusive Retailers, we're happy to help you select the perfect combination!
Luxe Board Duplexing: You may have noticed that duplexing colored papers is one of our favorite embellishments. We know that color is very important to brides and grooms, so having the ability to print letterpress and foil on thick colored papers is such a treat! We love playing with different ink, foil and paper combinations! The new Kensington design customization features our Traditional Duplexing, which is a double-thick version of our colored papers.
We created our Custom Wedding Portfolio process with every unique couple in mind. We, ourselves, would expect to personalize our wedding invitation suite, so we wanted to create a process that allowed every bride and groom to do the same. It's also designed to be fun! We encourage you to scour our website {don't forget to check out our Search By Style feature} and meet with the experts at your local Dauphine Press retailer to get their guidance and input. Once you do, you'll be well on your way to creating your very own custom letterpress wedding invitations!

The dining space at Le Coucou.
The designers were eager to explore what it would mean to create an ornate and soulful restaurant in a city that, at the moment, favors a more mellow and casual approach. But while the place is, indeed, fancy, "you don't have to gild something to make it feel exquisite," says Standefer. "We wanted to create the sense of ease and comfort that you might find at someone's home—to make it less pretentious and stuffy and more moody."
The decorative elements, Alesch explains, were all chosen to evoke emotion and "create a dreamscape that is not overly specific about a place and time in history. It's our own reintegration of what we see and feel is grown-up and beautiful."
The front dining space at Le Coucou.
A triple-hung window separating the main entrance and bar from the more formal dining room acts like a lantern, directing light and introducing a more intimate feel. High arched openings and vaulted ceilings give gravity to the space, while "rows of chandeliers marching down the ceiling and the punctuation of the tall candles," highlight its structure, says Standefer. The volume, notes Alesch, "feels decadent and pleasurable," while the muted color scheme introduces "a sense of poise, of rhythm and punctuation," Standefer adds.
Large mohair banquettes more readily invoke a living room sofa than a fine-dining table, reminding guests of the intimacy and comfort of a dinner party at home. And as with the best dinner parties, it's the vibe that's most important. Says Standefer, "The dynamics and energy of the kitchen spill into the space. Like Daniel's cooking, it's meticulous yet mischievous—what you expect is not necessarily what you will get."

When we think about beauty, one of the typical things to come to mind are flowers - the fantastic works of nature that keep delighting us with their extraordinary forms, countless colours and marvellous smells. They are a true pleasure to our eyes, our nose... They are the most beautiful decoration you can think of and always make a good gift.

For ages, flowers have been a decorative element, whether fresh or just as a painted ornament. They have decorated walls, floors, ceilings and fabrics. Not much has changed in that respect, perhaps only one thing - these days we don't need to hire an artist to paint the floral decorations on the wall. All we need to do is to choose from our wide range of FLORAL WALLPAPERS. REMOVABLE FLORAL WALLPAPERS give you a chance to decorate walls with floral patterns, much like with an artistic fresco. PEEL AND STICK FLOWER WALLPAPERS offer romantic roses, elegant bouquets, rich baroque arrangements with peonies and dahlias or royal peonies.Our graphic designers created the FLORAL WALLPAPERS following the newest trends in interior design so if you prefer something more modern, you will also be able to find something you like. Our PEEL AND STICK FLORAL WALLPAPERS come either with traditional pictures or drawings that show flowers in a more graphic, monochromatic way. Browsing through the dozens of patterns of our REMOVABLE WALLPAPERS, you will find plants from the whole world - colourful tropical flowers, palm trees or sun-loving cactuses, which have recently been very popular.

✓ Innovative PeelStick material, which alows to be applied and peeled multiple times!✓ Digitally printed, removable with matte finish✓ Sticks to any flat surface
Our FLORAL WALLPAPERS not only show subtle, delicate, feminine, floral themes but also amazing, majestic works of nature. You can also find PEEL AND STICK FLORAL WALLPAPERS which show old-fashioned illustrations, as if taken out straight from grandma's herbarium, beautiful views you might see during a relaxing walk in the spring or postcards from the most distant parts of the world which show thick, leafy, exotic jungles full of breath-taking flora. A FLORAL WALLPAPER is good for the bedroom, the living room. It also works great in the kitchen, especially that it is washable so stains won't be a problem. Flowers are perfect for almost any kind of space. So, if you choose a FLORAL REMOVABLE WALLPAPER with little roses, you're going to get a romantic interior. If you want a rustic interior, go for wild flowers, and if you are thinking of something modern, bright and intense graphics with plants should be perfect. There is a reason why flowers have been used as decoration for ages - trust the traditional solutions and choose a FLORAL PEEL AND STICK WALLPAPER for your interior.

More Airlines Add Wi-Fi
October 15, 2009
Wi-Fi in the air continues its upward trajectory as both commercial and business aviation companies strive to meet high customer demand.
Lufthansa and Dassault Falcon add Wi-FiJiWire adds ads
German airline Lufthansa announced Monday that it would re-launch its in-flight Wi-Fi service, FlyNet.
Wolfgang Mayrhuber, Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO of Deutsche Lufthansa AG said in a statement at the Lufthansa Web site, With the FlyNet re-launch, we are taking the lead in in-flight connectivity.
Other international carriers have also gotten on board the Wi-Fi plane. Dublin-based Ryanair, for example, offers wireless e-mail, SMS, and even VoIP calling on some of its flights. The service is provided by OnAir, a Swiss provider. Air France-KLM and Australian carrier Qantas have also beta-tested in-flight Wi-Fi.
Private carriers are also seeing Wi-Fi as a must-have amenity for business travelers. Dassault Falcon, a subsidiary of France-based Dassault Aviation, has taken the lead and expects to be the first business aircraft manufacturer to offer deployment of the Aircell system on its full fleet of business jets.
Not branded Gogo in business aircraft deployments, the Aircell Wi-Fi service that will be an option for Dassault Falcon jet owner/operators is branded Aircell High Speed Internet. The system utilizes the Aircell 3G air-to-ground cellular network for in-flight Wi-Fi while aircraft are flying over the continental U.S.
Announced in September, the exclusive agreement between Aircell and Dassault will enable Falcon jet passengers and crews to use Wi-Fi-enabled devices, such as laptops, iPod touches, and smartphones while in the airbut only via the Aircell system. Aircell is promising full mobile broadband speeds in-flight.
While some commercial flights limit the applications or the devices that can be used on-board, Falcon jet owner operators will have the freedom to use their Aircell systems as they please, including full Web access and access to corporate VPNs. Ownership has its privileges.
Aircell also has a satellite-based service for use over oceans and for international use called SwiftBroadband.
According to Eric Monsel, Vice President, Programs, Dassault Falcon, the demand for in-flight wireless Internet access among Falcon jet clients is great. "In this day and age, it's seldom we talk to customers without discussing what in-flight connectivity options are available. People want to be as fully connected aboard their aircraft as they are in their office, he said in a press release.
Demand from commercial air travelers is equally high. One study showed that business travelers would rather be given Wi-Fi than food when on an airplane. Another indicated that more than three-quarters of business travelers would choose an airline based on Wi-Fi availability. The first Aircell-equipped Falcon jet aircraft is scheduled for customer delivery in 4Q10.
Funding models
While each owner of a Falcon jet can decide for herself whether to pay for the upgrade to in-flight Wi-Fi on her aircraft, commercial airlines are still sorting out their individual pricing structures. Studies, not surprisingly, show that free Wi-Fi is very popular in-flight and, as prices go up, usage goes down. Currently, prices tend to run in the $5.95-$12.95 range, depending on the duration of the flight, although price-conscious Southwest Airlines has tested price points as low as $2.
One new model includes advertising. JiWire recently announced a partnership with Row 44 that will allow advertisers to place interactive ads on Row 44s in-flight login page, Skytown, which is free for travelers to access. In addition to ads, the Skytown portal also provides links to free content, including video games, SkyMall shopping, and travel information.

Row 44s aircraft-based hotspots will become part of JiWires network of free and fee-based public hotspots. The match between Row 44 and JiWire is a solid one: JiWires 30,000 or so hotspots are traveler-centric, mostly located in hotels, airports, and cafés. JiWire sells advertising to clients wishing to reach the (hopefully) captive and affluent audiences commonly found using these hotspots.
Row 44 lags behind Aircell in its domestic deployments, but it has nabbed Southwest Airlines and Alaska Airlines, which have already equipped some of their aircraft with Row 44s satellite broadband Internet access system.
By partnering with Row 44, we can offer advertisers an opportunity to engage a captive audience at the on-ramp to the Internet throughout the lifecycle of a travelerreaching a person in the hotel, in the airport, in the executive lounge and, now, in the air, said Kevin McKenzie, founder and CEO of JiWire in a press release October 5th. Having built the leading Wi-Fi media channel for effectively engaging on-the-go audiences, we are very excited to now be expanding our platform to the skies on both laptops and Wi-Fi-enabled mobile devices, such as the iPhone.
The JiWire/Row 44 service is expected to launch this fall.
Naomi Graychase is Managing Editor at Wi-Fi Planet. She has never flown on a private jet nor on a commercial flight that offered Wi-Fi--but she remains hopeful on both accounts.

Today at All Things Considered, we continue a project we're calling NewsPoet. Each month, we bring in a poet to spend time in the newsroom — and at the end of the day, to compose a poem reflecting on the day's stories.
The series has included Pulitzer Prize winner Tracy K. Smith, Craig Morgan Teicher and Kevin Young.
Today, poet Monica Youn brings us the news in verse. Her second collection, Ignatz, a series of poems loosely based on the Krazy Kat comic strip of the 1920s-'30s, was a finalist for the National Book Award in 2010. Youn is also a lawyer and a Brennan Center Constitutional Fellow at NYU School of Law, where she focuses on election law and First Amendment issues.
Monica Youn sat down with Melissa Block to talk about her double life as a lawyer and poet, and her time spent with NPR's All Things Considered. She told Block that her two worlds don't often collide. "I use one form of work as a vacation from the other form of work," she said.
In fact, there was a point in her life when she leaned toward doing poetry exclusively. But not practicing law was tough. "I missed the intellectual rigor," she explained. "Poetry is rigorous, but in a very different way."
Now she does both. But even though Youn is accustomed to the fast-paced life of a lawyer, writing a poem quickly presented a new kind of challenge. She called it "one of the hardest things I've ever done," explaining that although she is attuned to news and politics, this assignment forced her to use the other half of her brain — the part usually reserved for isolated contemplation. "It was like trying to draw a picture with the wrong hand," she said.
The end result was a villanelle. Youn said she chose the form, which calls for lines that repeat throughout the poem, because it allowed her to make connections between the different stories she was hearing.
One of Youn's repeating lines refers to the day as "a net of twenty four knots." She said it was inspired by the story of a blind Chinese activist who had escaped house arrest, unnoticed by the 24 guards stationed outside. But the symbolism didn't end there. "I was also thinking of the constraints of the 24-hour news cycle," said Youn, "and of my own self-pitying constraints of trying to write this poem on this schedule."
Usually when writing, "I think of it as supersaturating a solution," said Young. "You just keep adding things into the beaker until something crystallizes." But today there wasn't time for that. "I think this is the fastest I've ever tried to write a poem," she said.
In the end, she was happy with how it turned out. "I might sub in some things. I was relying too heavily on the online rhyming dictionary," she laughed. But "I'm happy with the overall theme of surveillance, entrapment and fear."
All Things Considered's NewsPoet is produced and edited by Ellen Silva with production assistance from Rose Friedman.
Each month, we invite a poet to spend the day with us and compose a poem reflecting the day's news. Well, today, we're joined by Monica Youn. Her second collection of poems, "Ignatz," was a finalist for a National Book Award in 2010. In addition to her life as a poet, Monica Youn is a lawyer specializing in election law. Monica, welcome to the program.
MONICA YOUN: Thank you so much for having me.
BLOCK: How tricky adventure was this for you, being a poet and at the same time digesting the news and trying to meld that into one thing?
YOUN: Well, this is very hard because in my life as a lawyer and as an advocate, I do election law, so I'm very much tied into the news and politics and all of that. And so I'm very used to dealing with that with the lawyer half of my brain. And so trying to handle a lot of that same material using the poet side of my brain was kind of like trying to draw a picture with your left hand when you're used to being right-handed. It just felt strange and uncomfortable but also sort of interesting.
BLOCK: And were you able to rise above that...
BLOCK: ...uncomfortable feeling and then get the creative juices flowing?
YOUN: I certainly hope so. I mean, I just wrote this poem. It's fresh off the presses, and I'll take a look at it...
YOUN: ...in a few weeks and tell you what I actually think of it.
BLOCK: Now, I'm really curious to hear what you've come up with. Can you read it for us?
YOUN: Sure.
BLOCK: Great.
YOUN: It's called "24."
(Reading) Fear is the coin dropping into its slot; $2 fall to the liquor shop floor. The day is a net of 24 knots. A modestly veiled woman poses no threat, but the veil truly masks a thief's face and hair. Fear is the coin dropping into its slot. Three hundred Priuses that someone forgot voluptuously rust in the Miami air. The day is a net of 24 knots. The primary insight of Keynesian thought: The way out of debt is for us to spend more. Fear is the coin dropping into its slot.
(Reading) A lawsuit, foreclosure, inescapable debt is the price of a new mother's prenatal care. The day is a net of 24 knots. A blind man trapped in a ring of perpetual light slips the noose, vanishes into the glare. Fear is the coin dropping into its slot. The day is a net of 24 knots.
BLOCK: The poem "24" from Monica Youn. And I see you've incorporated the thoughts from a number of the stories in the program today. Tell me about this repeating line: The day is a net of 24 knots.
YOUN: That was initially inspired by this blind activist who has escaped in China because apparently he had 24 guards stationed around his house at all times who were, you know, creating this sort of net. But I was also thinking of it in terms of the constraints of the 24-hour news cycle and that things just keep happening. And in terms of my own, I guess, self-pitying constraints in trying to write this poem on the schedule and...
YOUN: ...and thinking about trying to be a poet on the 24-hour news cycle.
BLOCK: Do you think - when you think about the poem now, is it something that you might go back to, tinker with, play around a little bit?
YOUN: Oh, yeah. I think I definitely might. I mean, I might sub in some things. I was relying kind of too heavily on the online rhyming dictionary while...
YOUN: ...writing this on the schedule.
BLOCK: Oh, true confession here from our NewsPoet.
YOUN: So, yeah, I'm sure I would tweak it quite a bit.
BLOCK: When you usually write a poem, what's your process like?
YOUN: Usually, when I write a poem, I think of it like super saturating a solution, like you just keep adding things into the beaker until something crystallizes. And it happens all at once, but the whole process of adding things into the beaker usually, for me, takes months, if not years. So I think this was as fast as I've ever tried to write a poem.
BLOCK: Well, we thank you for taking it on. Monica Youn, who's our NewsPoet for the month of April, thanks so much.
YOUN: Thank you. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Regardless of what you're training for, there's a hill workout out there for you.
One of the hardest parts about constructing a great training plan is trying to figure out how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together. For each week or training cycle, you have a myriad of possible workouts to choose from — threshold runs, VO2 max, speed work, hill repeats and slight variations of all of these training elements. It can seem daunting to understand how each type of workout fits into a plan and how it helps you take a step toward your goal of running faster on race day.
WORKOUT OF THE WEEK: The Sisyphus Session
In particular, many runners struggle with how to incorporate hill work into their training if their goal race is on a hilly course. It stands to reason that if you're racing on a hilly course you need to work hill repeats into your training, right? Not as much as you may think. While hill repeats aren't exactly race specific workouts, I do believe there is a beneficial way to incorporate hill sessions into your training.
In this article, we'll outline the different types of hill workouts and highlight the benefits of each so you can better understand the physiological components and better incorporate the right type of hill workouts into your training.

Jenna Lewis, FOCUS Missionary
"For their wickedness blinded them, and they did not know the secret purposes of God."
Wisdom 2:22
Do we really know Jesus deep in our hearts or do we just passively accept a knowledge that never surpasses our minds? Do we find ourselves critiquing God, blaming Him for events in our lives, testing Him, or constantly trying to prove His existence? Belief takes going beyond the practicalities of our minds and what we can see. It takes going into the depths of our souls. It takes a trust and faith in something unseen. Ultimately, it takes an encounter.
Do you relate to the feeling God is inconveniencing you or He is opposing your actions, or even that following Him would be an uncomfortable way of life? Some of these negative feelings can keep us from drawing closer to God's loving embrace. Let us not get hung up on these feelings. We must take the time to recognize where we stray and bring those sins to the foot of the cross to be transformed.
For Jesus promises He is near to the brokenhearted, He will respond to our cry, and He will deliver even the most afflicted. For He loves us dearly. Let us allow ourselves to experience His embrace. Let us not get caught up in the logistics of faith or the crosses we bear. Let us allow Jesus to move our hearts deeply, to go beyond the testing of our mind.
What is it going to take for you to let Him in… to transform your heart?
Jesus help me to be at peace, to quiet myself enough to accept You deep in my being. Help me to identify the things that are holding me back from truly feeling Your loving presence. Amen.
Ws 2: 1, 12-22, Ps 34: 17-21, 23; Jn 7: 1-2, 10, 25-30

Find a Local Passport Office
Looking for US passport office information? You've come to the right place. There are two types of passport offices in the United States: Passport Acceptance Facilities and Regional Passport Agencies. Passport Acceptance Facilities are local passport offices that can provide passport applications, review passport applications, and verify your identity and US citizenship as a preliminary step to getting your passport. When you are applying for a first time passport, a passport for a child, or a replacement for a lost or damaged passport, the Passport Acceptance Facility will seal your application into an official envelope in a process called "executing the application."
Use our interactive map to discover which of the 8,000+ Passport Acceptance Facilities is most convenient for you.
"Me" will be used as the reference point to search from.
Enter your postal code or a city to modify your current location:
Passport Offices Near You
The local passport office can send in your application for expedited passport service by mail, which will take 2-3 weeks to complete. If you need faster service, such as to get your passport expedited in 24 hours, ask the Passport Acceptance Agent to give you your sealed envelope so you can send it to a registered passport expeditor company.

Cops: Duo tried to rob woman Sunday
STAMFORD -- A couple trying to rob a woman beat her with a cane on Prospect Street on Sunday night, police said.
The victim said she was walking north on Prospect Street near Walton Place when a woman struck her on the back of her head with a cane at about 8:30 p.m., Sgt. Thomas Martin said.
The assailant told the 30-year-old victim to empty her pockets and surrender all her money and her cellphone, Martin said; but when the victim turned to flee, a man blocked her path.
The victim still was able to dart away from the couple and run into a nearby market, police said.
A market employee corroborated the victim's account, telling police a man and a woman came running into the market right behind the victim, Martin said.
The employee saw the man grab the woman he came in with and tell her they needed to get away because someone would be calling police, Martin said. An ambulance was called for the victim, but she said she would seek medical care on her own.
Officers canvassed the neighborhood, but were unable to find anyone who could be positively identified by the victim, police said.

Teaching with Technology
Instructional technology (IT) has become an important part of teaching and learning within the classroom as well as working with fully online environments. Resources for educating and assisting faculty about the best practices for using technology has become crucial. These resources need to go beyond how to work with specific software and educators need to understand the ways in which these new tools can make a significant difference in student learning.
TEP's IT support staff are available to assist instructors in exploring different potential technologies that create useful and productive student learning experiences.
This section of the website will:
- offer suggestions for how instructors might initiate and guide particular technology-supported learning activities,
- present the different roles technology might play in a classroom, and
- promote thinking and reflection about the best uses of technology in the
Learning is seen as essentially a social process, requiring communication among learner, teacher and others. This social process cannot effectively be replaced by technology, although technology may facilitate it. (p. 35)

Jenson Button was in a reflective mood after he again missed out on a podium finish at the British Grand Prix.
Having struggled behind the wheel for an uncompetitive McLaren for much of the season, the 34-year-old came within a second of sealing his first-ever top three finish at Silverstone at his 15th attempt as fellow Briton Lewis Hamilton stormed to victory.
McLaren boss Ron Dennis had told Button he needed to 'try harder' and he responded by qualifying third on Saturday in a session affected by rain.
After an enthralling race, 0.8 seconds was all that separated Button from the third-placed Daniel Ricciardo as he ran out of laps having reeled in the Red Bull in the closing stages.
But, on an emotional weekend for Button - who was sporting a pink helmet to commemorate the memory of his father who passed away in January - he felt he got everything he could out of the car.
"P4 is not so bad," Button said.
"I think we should be happy with the weekend we have had. We definitely needed it as a team. It has been a tough old year - just like last year, really.
"It is nice to get this result because high-speed circuits are not our forte really - no circuits are, but high-speed are more difficult for us.
"Today we did a good job and we have a load of information to look at for the next few races."
Button felt if the race had been just one lap longer he would have been able to haul in Ricciardo and join Hamilton on the podium.
"I definitely would have had a good go anyway," he said.
"I think I crossed the line 0.8 seconds behind him and if I would have got DRS on the next lap, if there was one, it would have been easy I think. But there you go - it didn't happen.
"Even so, we almost beat two Red Bulls and a Ferrari today so that is a step forward but still, as you can see compared to the Williams, we have a lot of work to do to improve the car."
Button was passed by his former McLaren team-mate Hamilton as the championship contender made his way through the field and, having said he would be happy to see his fellow Briton on the top step, also acknowledged he had not put up too much of a challenge.
"Congratulations to Lewis," he said.
"I said if there was one person I didn't mind winning it was Lewis, and it is fantastic for the fans and fantastic for the championship.
"I got so close to the podium and it would have been the perfect podium with Lewis up there and myself, but it didn't quite happen and it wasn't meant to be, so maybe next year.
"I didn't make it very difficult for him, to be fair. If we fought I'd lose time and he would lose time.
"The defence against Lewis wasn't a defence - it was a case of 'you're there so I will let you be there'. The other guys you fight because you are racing them."
With McLaren sporting special pink T-shirts in their own tribute to Button's father, the crowd also joined in on a special day for the most experienced driver currently racing in Formula One.
"I was giving maximum attack all the way through the race but especially the last 20 laps," he added.
"I could feel the crowd, and having a Brit leading the race and one fighting for third is pretty awesome.
"Great support from everyone, especially the family, (girlfriend) Jessie and my close friends. The whole team this weekend have been great.
"It was fantastic to see the British fans, who were supportive, but it was great to see so much pink out there in support of myself and the memory of my dad, so it was very special. I just wish we could have got on the podium."

A panel of heart experts said Wednesday that the government should expand approval of the first artificial heart valve designed to be implanted without major surgery, despite limited information about some long-term side effects.
The Food and Drug Administration's panel of outside cardiologists voted 11-0 with one abstention that the benefits of broader approval for Edwards Lifesciences' Sapien valve outweigh the risks.
The valve is currently approved for patients who aren't healthy enough to undergo the more invasive open-heart surgery, which has been used to replace the aortic valve for decades.
If FDA follows the group's advice, the implant will be approved for patients who are healthier, but still face serious risks from chest-opening surgery. Many such patients are in their 80s and have complicating medical factors like diabetes.
The FDA is not required to follow the panel's advice, though it often does. A decision is expected later this year.
Edwards Lifesciences Corp. presented data from a pivotal trial showing that patients implanted with its heart valve survived about as long as those who underwent surgery. One year after the operation, 76 percent of patients implanted with the heart valve were still alive, compared with 73 percent of those who had undergone open-heart surgery.
The numbers were close enough to meet the study's goal of showing that Sapien's survival rate was at least as good as surgery. But panelists raised a number of concerns about the valve's side effects and the accuracy of the company's trial results.
Patients who got the Sapien valve had a higher rate of stroke immediately following the procedure when compared to surgery, though rates evened out over time. Additionally, more than half of patients had leaking from the aortic heart valve, a potentially dangerous condition in which blood flows backward into the heart's ventricle chamber.
Elsewhere, panelists noted that the death rate among men was more than 3 percent higher than that for women with the Sapien valve.
In each case, panelists said more follow-up data would be needed to define the scope and severity of these issues.
Irvine, Calif.-based Edwards plans to conduct two follow-up studies to evaluate long-term safety as well as differences in gender outcomes.
About 300,000 U.S. patients suffer from deterioration of the aortic heart valve, which forces the heart to work harder to pump blood, often leading to heart failure, blood clots and sudden death. More than half of patients diagnosed with the condition, called aortic stenosis, die within two years, according to the FDA.
Every year about 50,000 people in the U.S. undergo open-heart surgery to replace the valve, which involves sawing the breastbone in half, stopping the heart, cutting out the old valve and sewing a new one into place. Thousands of other patients are turned away, deemed too old or ill to survive the operation.
The Sapien valve is usually threaded through the femoral artery via a small incision in the leg, and then guided up to the heart via catheter. An alternate procedure inserts the valve through a small incision between the ribs. The valve is then wedged into the aortic opening by an inflatable balloon, replacing the natural heart valve. The device is made from cow tissue and polyester supported by a steel frame.
Analysts estimate as many as 70,000 to 100,000 patients per year could eventually receive the valve.
In the most recent quarter Edwards reported Sapien sales of $121.5 million, with the U.S. contributing $41 million. For the full year Edwards expects sales of $530 million to $600 million.
Shares of Edwards Lifesciences Corp. fell 27 cents Wednesday to close at $90.54. They rose 59 cents to $91.13 in extended trading following news of the panel's vote.

A pneumothorax is when air builds up between the outside of your lung and the inside of your chest wall (ribcage).
The air can come from your lung or from outside your body if there's a serious injury to the chest. A pneumothorax caused by leaks of air from the lungs is more common in people with a lung condition such as asthma or cystic fibrosis. But it can occur in people who are otherwise completely healthy.
A large pneumothorax can squash the lung causing it to collapse.
Because this condition is rare, it may take some time to get a diagnosis. Your doctor will need to consider other possible causes of your symptoms. You may need to have a few tests and you might need to see a specialist.
The treatment of a pneumothorax depends on its size and whether it's expanding. If it's small, no treatment may be needed. If it's large, it will need to be drained using a syringe or a chest tube.
