Sesame-crusted tuna with wasabi avocado and grapefruit salad
Serves 4
½ radicchio, leaves torn
½ fennel bulb, sliced as finely as possible
2 shallots, sliced as finely as possible
4 radishes, sliced as finely as possible
2 ruby grapefruit, cut into wedges
Juice of 2 lemons
2 tbsp olive oil, plus one tablespoon extra
1 avocado
2 tsp wasabi paste
½ cup sesame seeds (white, black or a mixture of both)
4 x 100g tuna steaks
Combine radicchio in a bowl with fennel, shallots, radishes and grapefruit. Set aside; just before serving, toss through juice of one lemon and two tablespoons olive oil.
Meanwhile, combine avocado, wasabi, juice of one lemon and a pinch of salt in a small food processor. Blitz until smooth.
Place sesame seeds onto a plate. Press each tuna steak onto sesame seeds on both sides until equally coated. Heat a non-stick frying pan over high heat and add the remaining olive oil. Cook tuna for 30 seconds each side or until sesame seeds are golden and fragrant but tuna is still very rare. Remove from heat.
Slice tuna steaks and divide between serving plates. Serve with wasabi avocado and grapefruit salad.

Re: A Favour
- In reply to A Favor
I thought I'd help answer the question you left on Chimpso's talk page. We are no longer anything to do with the GTA Wikia - they do whatever they want and we have no control or authority there. Only the administrators or any Wikia Staff can unblock you from that site. If their rules mean you have to have evidence for everything, then that's their choice. In my opinion, their rules are rubbish and the staff are pretty awful, so I don't why you would want to be unblocked there. I'd suggest you find a new home (like Grand Theft Wiki). gboyers talk 21:50, 29 August 2011 (BST)
- Please do NOT edit or remove anyone else's comments on a talk page. Everyone is entitled to their point of view, even if it is different to yours. As for what happened on Wikia, it's nothing to do with us here any more. I'm afraid that I won't allow this wiki to be a harbour for personal insults and arguments - we are here to make an awesome GTA encyclopedia. If you have issues with Wikia or the GTA Wiki there, I suggest you take it to Wikia, Wikia staff, Wikia IRC, those users or the Anti-Wikia Alliance. This is not the place for that. Alright? gboyers talk 22:29, 30 August 2011 (BST)

GTA Wiki
I've responded to your earlier message on your Gregallz5 account on the GTA Wiki, you can reply to it on your GTA Wiki talk page if you wish, you can still edit your talk page whilst blocked. This is a GTA Wiki problem so I'd rather it be discussed there. The Tom 01:42, 31 August 2011 (BST)
- Sorry but you've had enough chances, just stick to editing this wiki now. The Tom 11:53, 31 August 2011 (BST)
- I'm not going to regret this, I can't just unblock you without a valid reason and you have no respect for staff and your still showing this lack of respect with the messages your leaving me, you got blocked for your language and the way you were talking to staff, you then created a new account which seemed to have the sole purpose of insulting Staff members, your block was then extended and you were warned not to create another account which you did almost immediately, you again insulted Staff members and asked me to block them just to get them back, I don't know what gave you the impression that I would be willing to do that but I never would, I can't actually block Jeff as we are both Bureaucrats and Bureaucrats can't block one another. Anyway, Dan then blocked you forever because of our continuous rule breaking. I can't see how you think thats unfair. If you wish to continue this conversation then please do so on gta.wikia.com, you can still edit your talk page so if you wish we can continue this conversation there. The Tom 17:02, 31 August 2011 (BST)
- Can we just talk on your GTA Wiki account talk page? If you want to continue this conversation then do so on your talk page, I have left you a message on there, leave your response under it. The Tom 16:11, 1 September 2011 (BST)

- I will not "tell" The Tom anything. Your dispute about access to that site is nothing to do with this site, and I've asked you not to use this site to argue about being banned on the other. Perhaps you do share an IP with that user, but if there is a suspicion that that account is a sockpuppet, is being used to defend you in arguments, or otherwise is not a real user, then of course action may be taken. If they are a legitimate user of Grand Theft Wiki, who wants to edit the wiki and stay out of trouble, that is great. I'm asking you now to stay away from The Tom's userpage, to not argue about the other wiki, and to just be a regular user. Can you do that? gboyers talk 23:35, 1 September 2011 (BST)
I have told you several times to STOP swearing, yet you have continued. I have told you several times to STOP bitching about Wikia on here. I have told you several times to STOP yelling at other users, even if you hate them. You have completely ignored this, so how do I get you to stop? I have no choice but to take action, so I am blocking you from this site for 1 day.
Please listen to what I am saying: whatever happened at the other site is none of my concern, and you have a chance for a completely fresh start here. You have the chance to be a normal user, with no blocks, no arguments with the staff, no history. At the moment you are wasting that chance by not sticking to our rules. Even with a fresh start, I have to take action to protect this wiki from people who disobey the rules.
As for Wikia, as The Tom has said several times, you should still be able to edit your own talk page. You can reply to him on that page. You do not need to find his talk page to reply on. You can just reply on your own page, and he can still see it.
Please come back when you're ready to edit this wiki, not swear, not discuss Wikia, and not insult other users. Deal? gboyers talk 21:08, 2 September 2011 (BST)
RE: Picture
To upload a picture on your profile like I got of Lance Vance and how to make it like a character's page, you have to follow these instructions. Use a wiki-style userpage (there is a link at the top of your current userpage for this purpose) and then obtain a character infobox from one of Grand Theft Wiki's character articles. Obtain an image of either yourself or a character (if your username is named after a charcter, like mine) and put the image into the picture section of the character infobox. (PS: copy and paste the infobox character code that has been provided by me onto your wiki userpage and then add whatever information you desire onto the templates provided). The infobox code should look like this:
{{infobox user |name = MrLanceVanceDance |image = LanceVance-GTAVC.jpg |size = 200px |caption = Lance Vance, the basis of MrLanceVanceDance's username. |games = VC |gender = M |dob = unknown |pob = unknown location, Australia |home = Unknown location, Australia |nationality = Australian |affiliations = <small>[[Grand Theft Wiki]] | }}

Budi Budi & Misima Island: latest cruising news
Published: 2002-12-05 16:21:01
Countries: Papua New Guinea
Coming from Solomon Islands one is permitted to stop at Budi Budi before clearing in at Misima.If arriving in the morning DON´T continue into the lagoon because the sun will block your vision and a big reef runs a long way out and there are scattered coralheads. Anchor instead at the first little island in 9 meters and wait. At noon it's easy to enter the lagoon. When we arrived they had just sustained major damage from cyclone Upia and nearly all the bananas and papayas was on the ground. Many houses were gone and the church was quite damaged. We helped with rice, flour, canned meat and tuna, batteries and clothes. When anchoring Tau and Elsie will welcome you and they are happy to help. Budi Budi is inside the big, fascinating kula ring and their big oceangoing canooes with the ornamented splash boards are still common. I will never forget the beautiful sail across the sparkling lagoon in an authentic kula canoe!
Misima Island: clearing in is easy, you need visas for all crew and captain AND visum for the yacht. The town is small and there´s the usual stuff: one West Pac bank (in a container), some supermarkets, a market (but they hardly sell anything but betel nuts - it´s better to take a walk and talk to people, they all have big gardens), 2 restaurants. It seems safe and the people are very friendly, but break ins at night on yachts have happened, we had a nice time. Roni, the quarantine officer is happy to act as tour guide and he knows some interesting caves on the north coast with old skulls and bones. When clearing out the customs officer Charles will take you in his car for the 20 km ride to the gold mine where you clear out. I cleared for Cairns, Australia and immigration allowed us 3 weeks to cruise Deboyne Lagoon and Louisiade Islands.
Don´t use town water on your boat but an English man has a little shop some 300 meters down the road on the left, he will help and he's got internet access (sometimes!) Near Cape Ebola on the western end of the island is a very nice little anchorage,"Hole in the Wall" with a friendly village, Ebora Village. It's very deep right up to the beach so a stern line is essential.A local young man, Maybeeyo,was a good guide and introduced us to the village people. Not many yachts come here, CAMAS was the first yacht in 2002.

facilities and other logistics.
The strong relation with the stakeholders is making the synergies happen at the
port. The Port continually strives in offering prompt and efficient services at
optimum cost to the satisfaction of its customers.
I welcome you once again to the Port of Visakhapatnam and hope that you enjoy surfing
through our website.
Visakhapatnam was an ancient Port city which had trade relations with the Middle
East and Rome. Ships were anchored at open roads and were loaded with cargo transported
from Visakhapatnam shore by means of small Masula boats. A reference to Vizagapatam
merchant is available in the inscriptions of Sri Bheemeswara Swamy temple (1068
AD), East Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh. During 12th century AD, Vizagapatam
was a fortified merchandize town managed by a guild. It has become a settlement
of a branch of East India Company in 1682. Rs. 83 lakh worth of goods were moved
through Vizagapatam / Bhimunipatnam in 1882-83.
Principal commodities traded at anchorage Port included Muslin cloth - manufactured
at Uppada (East Godavari District), Manganese ore - exports to UK and USA, Oilseeds,
jaggery, jute and indigo, hides and skins. Extensive trade relations existed with
Burma. Vessels of British India Steam Navigation Company regularly visited the Port.
With the advent of British Rule, in 1858, the need for a port in this part of the
country was emphasized in a report of a British Survey Party. Later in 1877 a report
called Vizag the Port of Central Provinces further emphasized the need for construction
of a Port at Visakhapatnam. It was only after the I World War (1914-18) that the
proposal of Col.H.Cartwright Reid of British Admiralty for construction of a harbour
at Visakhapatnam at the mouth of river Meghadrigedda was approved by the Government.
The unique feature of the harbour has been the Island Break-water, constructed by
scuttling two old ships JANUS and WELLESDON which form the skeleton around which
a rubble mound is formed. Two engineers Mr.W.C.Ash and Mr.D.B.Rattenberry were instrumental
in making this engineering marvel a reality.
The existing land locked Inner Harbour was built by Bengal Nagpur Railway between
1927 and 1933 to provide sea outlet for Manganese ore of the Central Provinces(Madhya
The location of the port is very ideal in the sense that it affords protection from
cyclones which strike the east coast regularly, by a high promontory into the sea,
knon as Dolphin's Nose Hill which is to the north of the entrance channel. The low
tidal range of a maximum of 1.82 meters is also advantageous for the location of
the port.
The harbour was constructed by dredging 281.8 million cu.ft. of land and soft material.
It consisted of outer channel, inner channel, island breakwater, sand trap, turning
basin, quay wall of 1600 ft (3 berths), two transit sheds, three storage sheds,
open storage area, four electric quay cranes, three NG Locos, one weigh bridge,
railway track, 15 sq. miles of acquired land and other facilities like, graving
dock, dredgers, tugs, lighters, power house, work shop, roads, drains, water supply,
buildings etc. The Port was constructed at a cost of Rs.378 lakhs.
The Port was opened to ocean traffic with the arrival of a passenger vessel S.S.JALADURGA
of the Scindia Steam Navigation Co., on the 7th October, 1933. The Port was formally
inaugurated by His Excellency Lord Willingdon, the then Viceroy and Governor General
of India on 19th December 1933.
In the first year of operation, the Port handled a traffic of 1.3 lakh tonnes. The
exports were 1.2 lakh tonnes and imports 0.1 lakh tonnes. The principal exports
were manganese ore and groundnuts. The imports consisted of rice, flour, tiles and
other consumer goods. The cargo was transported through bullock carts.
During the years of II World War (1939-42) the Port assumed military importance.
After the war and country's independence, the planned development of the Port started
with the commencement of Five Year Plans of the country. Substantial investments
were made in the successive Five Year Plans for developing the infrastructure in
the Port.
The metamorphosis of the small Port with 3 berths and with initial annual traffic
of 1.3 lakh tonnes into a leading Major Port with 24 berths and annual throughput
of 65 million tonnes involed many landmarks.
The Port administration has passed through different departments and Ministries
of the Government of India till its transfer to the Port Trust in February, 1964
under Major Port Trusts Act 1963 as shown below:
Construction of three jetty berths(WJ-1,2&3)
Construction of one quay berth (EQ-4)

I'm currently working on a muslin version of the 1940s Rodeo Gal shirt by Decades of Style, which was originally released by the McCall pattern company in 1946. I love having reproduction patterns like this available because it includes nine sizes in one, which means no pattern grading necessary! The pattern has also been simplified just a bit from the 1940s original which I don't mind either.
I have two fabrics in my stash right now that I'm considering for the final version of this shirt but I can't decided which one to use! Eventually I will use both, but I'm leaning towards the acorns right now. I stumbled upon this Kate & Birdie Paper Co print at Fabric Worm and I fell in love with it. It's a relatively subtle print (for me anyway!) and I think it would look great paired with a taupe colored solid cotton.
After another buttonhole foot fiasco recently, I've decided to take a break from them and try shirt snaps instead. I read some good reviews about the SnapSetter so I bought the tool and few varieties of snaps to test out. Hopefully they work! I'll share a review/tutorial if I really like the SnapSetter system.
I've also been browsing my own little library of old magazines and catalogs for more western wear inspiration! I'm a nerd like that. Once I get interested in something I just have to know as much about it as I can, even if it's just a certain style of shirt. I'm sure Fashion Historians can relate.
In other coincidental news, Wil and I almost moved into a Saloon House…
This AMAZING house near Ellicottville, NY was originally built as a resort/vacation destination type seasonal rental but the owner was looking to stop the weekend rentals and take on long term tenants. I instantly fell in love with its quirky charm and jaw-droppingly beautiful vintage clad interior, but it had one gigantic downside: no yard. Lucille is my baby so a proper patch of grass for her to enjoy is an absolute must have, but this place just didn't have it. In the owner's defense, he's made a living off pouring and making concrete so I can't blame him for trading a green yard for one he can pour and never have to mow. I will forever wonder what it would have been like to live in a Saloon though…
I'll be back soon with a test run of the 1940s Rodeo Gal! Wish me luck 😉

Washington Oregon Wave Energy Potential
The HUG Washington Oregon Wave Energy is a game changer. It promises to bring electricity created from ocean wave energy to the ocean shores of Washington at a very low cost.
The following images are located along the coast of Washington and Oregon wherever there is a natural small bay. This type of topography reduces the cost of the reservoir.
There is additional river water that adds to the height of the reservoir if flooding and boat access is not an issue.
Now enter a new use which is more profitable: the creation of electricity. Now it makes sense to spend over $25 million on the project because of a very lucrative return on investments: 19%/year in first year to 105%/year thereafter.

Health matters to everyone; all we have in our lives is a good health to enjoy everything in the universe. If a person is not having a good health he definitely misses all good things around him. In fact, the person has to spend his time behind the boring walls of the health centre or on the treatment bed. Sometimes the person can live out of these places but cannot live the moments to the fullest as he or she has to bear up some of the restrictions that fade out the slice of life. In order to enjoy the best life moment, it is necessary for everyone to take good care of health.
It is hard for a person to avoid any serious injury or health problem in life, but things can be better with care and cure. If you try to live a balanced life or keep the track of the problem along with solution you can avoid the crucial conditions at last. Things can be good enough with the simple consultation to a specialist in order to get the right suggestions and health tips. AmonaHealth is the centre that focuses on community health conditions at large and makes sure every possible thing to keep up the things positive for the people. It is hard for the medical sciences to eliminate the disease and problems from the world but, in case of any problem, it can provide the best options to the people in order to get cured and live a healthy life.
Amonahealth : Common health threats
With the growing and advanced technology, the health problems are also getting advanced and improved. We are living a fast life that is creating a number of crucial medical problems such as heart disease, kidney failure, cancer, hypertensions and much more. All of these diseases are integrated with other problems in the human body such. Unfortunately due to the increased tension in our lifestyle people are under the effect of many psychological problems as well. Most commonly the stress, cholesterol and obesity are the key problems that generate the high-level disabilities and problems in the human body. If the person is able to treat up the basic issues then there is a possibility to get the other problems treated.
Why should you be healthy?
All over the global health is the central subject that is in major focus and everyone wants to enjoy the best health. But, a common question comes to people's mind is why health is even that important? On a general note, if you are not finding the health that much important for you then you need a reality check. When you are healthy you can enjoy every perk of life whether it's travelling, dancing, food or any other recreational activity that gives you happiness. The ultimate health enables you to socialize and involved with a number of people around you so you can have the best and ultimate time with them. Moreover, you are free to do work as much as you can, for a healthy mind there is always a need of the healthy body. If you are physically fit then you do have the potential to think out of the box that will boost up your creativity and brings the best professional outcome to your life. With a good life definitely, you can enjoy the best and simple life that will bring up a number of opportunities for you to grow. You can resume your passion without any boundaries or limitations as you are healthy enough to do everything. Most of the time you want to do a number of things but unable to do it because you are not healthy or feeling good. A good health will make things easy for you as you can do the multi tasking and get involved with the people as well.
Happiness and satisfaction
Most of the people all around the globe are not happy neither satisfied with their lives. Although they have all the facilities and perks available to them it is hard for them to be happy. This is not because of money but due to health problems. They can buy anything but not the peace of mind or a healthy body so they have to face problems and do not feel the actual happiness. For them, it is important to have a better health condition so they can improve their inner peace and live the life with a different energy.
Adopt healthy lifestyle to avoid problems
If you want to improve your lifestyle or to live happily it is necessary to treat up your problems and that can be only possible if you adopt the right lifestyle options. It is not necessary that only if you are going through the medical problems only then you need to put up the great stress on the healthy lifestyle. In fact, you can pick up the right way of living in your normal routine so things will be better and smooth running for you. This will help you to avoid the serious health problems. In case of any medical issue, the change of lifestyle is helpful and gives the ultimate support to get treated. AmonaHealth stress on the medical treatments but do have a great emphasis on the healthy life style. The following can be the habits you can adapt to a healthy lifestyle.
Eat healthy and on time
What we eat does have a great effect on our health. It is highly recommended to eat healthy so that you can simply avoid a number of problems. If your body is getting all the necessary nutrition to regulate the body functions you will have great immunity to fight against the disease. This will help you to have the best health and also to beat up the medical problems. Moreover, the timings of your meals and snacks should be balanced so you will not gain much weight loss.
Exercise daily
Daily light exercise helps you to regulate your body and improve the blood flow. If you are facing obesity or cholesterol problems followed by hypertensions then a morning walk with lighter exercise is an ideal solution along with healthy diet. This will help you to have the amazing change over in your body and medical problems.
Drink plenty of water
Water is the ultimate blessing we have by nature, to hydrate your body and exfoliate the extras from your body it helps a lot. More you will take water more fats you will get drained out from your body. Make sure to avoid drinking cold water, in fact, prefer the room temperature one.
Avoid processed or fast food
The problems like obesity, hypertensions. Cholesterol and hormonal imbalance are generated by the processed or fast food among the people. This is the ultimate reason for the fatigue at present. Although you cannot avoid the use of such foods but can minimize the consumption to ensure that you will not have to face the bad health problems in future.
Reduce consumption to tobacco and alcohol
Tobacco, drugs and alcohol are the ultimate enemies of human health. A number of people all over the world are under the attack of lungs, liver and kidney problems just because of these addictions. For a short time these additions look attractive and fascinate a person to a larger extent but in reality, these are killing the person inside. It is very important to avoid these addictions and drugs at large to live a healthy life.
Keep the health track record
If you are totally feeling healthy and do not require any medical treatment even then you need to take a record of your health. In the present world, it is not necessary that if you haven't faced any problem yet you will never face any of the problems. Things can be different and come out at a surprise for you most of the time. So, make sure that you are going to have the best track of your activities and health fluctuations. In this regard, all you need is to consult your medical specialist more often for the regular checkups. This will help you to note that what kind of changes your body is having with the passage of time. This actually helps to avoid any kind of fatal medical problem that will be a leading issue to handle up.

Does Social Security Do Range of Motion Exams For A Disability Claim?
Most disability applicants do not have range of motion exams for their SSDI or SSI disability claims. If an applicant does not allege a disabling condition that involves their joints, neck, or spine, there is most likely will be no need for a range of motion examination.
Range of motion examinations are most often performed in during consultative examinations (social security medical exams). The consultative examination physician for a disability claim will ask the individual to move their knees, elbows, shoulders, hips, neck, and spine so that they can evaluate any restriction of movement.
It is important to remember that Social Security is based upon functionality rather than specific conditions and that is why it is important for the disability examiner to have an idea of the how a disability applicant's condition limits their mobility or ability to perform activities associated with work (i.e. walking, lifting, bending, carrying, standing, crouching, etc.)
Disability examiners use consultative examinations and range of motion examinations to determine an individual's residual functional capacity (what they are able to do despite the limitations caused by their disabling condition).
Disability examiners routinely request range of motion exams when an individual has arthritis, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic injury (fractures or injury bones and joints) or any other condition that has a high likelihood causing limitation to an applicant's ability to function.

Lay 6 tortillas on a work surface. Divide the cheese among the tortillas. (Its best to leave about an inch border on the edge of the tortilla uncovered to allow for the spread of the melting cheese.) Top with remaining tortillas and press gently to seal. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet. Carefully place a quesadilla in the skillet and fry, turning once, until golden and little bubbles appear on both sides, about 4 to 5 minutes total. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, wiping out the pan between batches if the butter burns, and adding more butter, as needed.
While the quesadillas cook make the salsa: Halve the tomatoes and grate them on the largest holes of a box grater into a bowl, discarding the skins. Grate the onion into the tomato, and stir in the cilantro, hot sauce, and salt, to taste.
Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges with a pizza wheel or knife and serve with the salsa and avocado.

One simple way to learn fractions is to visualize the different parts of common items, such as coffee pots or pizzas. This makes the idea behind the fractions more concrete and helps to highlight the practical applications of learning fractions. For example, it helps display an exact amount of something that is less than one and greater than zero. Remember that fractions themselves are not equations that must be solved. Instead, they are only another way of representing numbers.Continue Reading
Begin by imagining a pizza that is split into eight different pieces. If you take one of those slices, you have one eighth of the pizza. This can be represented fractionally with the number one on top of the number eight, with a horizontal line bisecting them. The bottom number remains constant because it represents the entirety of the pizza, but the top number may change. For instance, if you take a second slice, you have two eighths of the pizza.
Another example is to imagine a pot of coffee that can hold four cups of coffee. When the pot is completely full, the fraction would be four fourths, which simplifies to one. This shows that all of the coffee is present. As cups are consumed, however, fractional amounts remain. After one cup is poured, the coffee pot is three quarters full. After a second cup is poured, the pot is two quarters full.Learn more about Fractions & Percentages

On a white sand beach at the pristine Lake Tanganyika, beneath the lushly forested Mahale Mountains, the rooms of the Greystoke Mahale camp stand tucked back into the forest line, allowing their natural surroundings to be seen in all their splendour. If guests listen closely, they will hear the rustling of chimpanzees and know that they are not the only ones who enjoy this natural paradise.
The camp is one of the best places in the world to observe these primates. Tracking them is the flagship activity at camp and guests can reach them in a 20-minute walk or even a 3-hour hike depending on how deep in the forest the chimpanzees have settled. Alternatively guests can sail on a dhow across the rippling waters of Lake Tanganyika.
Made entirely out of wood reclaimed from wrecked dhows, the 6 thatched Bandas include an en suite bathroom, charmingly accessible by a short boardwalk. The Bandas feature deft touches - like ladders made from old fishermen's canoes - enhancing the castaway experience. The main Mess Banda is the only structure located on the beach and is a great place to enjoy a delicious dinner.

The Detroit Public Schools system has experimented with using gardening in the lesson plans of individual schools for over a decade. Now, with the help of federal funding and the support of community groups, the district plans to make garden-based education available to students in 45 schools across the district.
A grant from the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 will give DPS the chance to create hands-on agricultural learning through what the district is calling a Garden Collaborative. The initiative will allow the district to plant new gardens at several schools and to supplement programs at sites where gardens already exist.
Each of the gardening locations will feature raised beds made of recycled timbers, compost bins, rainwater collection equipment, gravel walkways and a Farm to School Learning Center.
The program will help teach students about nutrition and increase school cafeterias' access to fresh fruits and vegetables. It will also allow teachers to incorporate the gardens into a wide range of subjects, from science to art to math.
"It's ideal when connections are made between the science curriculum and the real world through observations and inquiry, and a school garden is definitely a great location for students to have that experience," said Alycia Meriweather, head of the DPS Office of Science.
Meriweather said the new effort has been shaped by earlier garden-centered efforts at schools like O.W. Holmes Elementary-Middle School and Catherine Ferguson Academy.
"We saw learning by kids [who were] not normally engaged, engaged because of the context," she said. "We want kids all across the city to have that experience."
Meriweather said the district hopes to eventually include all the schools in the district in the program.

"Ireland should honour its debts if it can," said Danny McCoy, head the Irish Business and Employers Confederation (IBEC).
"The country makes a living taking capital from people and looking after it, and you don't want to get a reputation for carrying out partial defaults," he told The Daily Telegraph.
Ireland's financial services industry is around 9.8pc of GDP, with big players such as Merrill and Citigroup operating from Dublin's 'Canary Dwarf'. But foreign investment is also the lifeblood of the country's manufacturing industry, led by computers and pharmaceuticals.
IBEC's comments come amid mounting pressure on the Irish government to rethink its plans for a "haircut" on the subordinated debt of Anglo Irish and Irish Nationwide Building Society (INBS).
Millhouse, the asset management group of Roman Abramovich, is the latest foreign fund to express fury, warning that Ireland faces possible legal action and a "huge reputation loss" if it imposes a haircut on creditors. The fund said it had been "misled and deceived" by the Irish government, though this class of debt was quietly dropped when the guarantee was extended last month.
The exact shape of any "burden-sharing" is still unclear. Brian Lenihan, finance minister, has said the junior bondholders should make a "significant contribution toward meeting the costs" of the state bailout.
These investors took extra risk to enjoy extra yield, and cannot expected shield when the bank collapses. The debt of senior bondholders is considered sacrosanct.
Mr Lenihan has to walk a fine line: talk of debt restructuring for Anglo and INBS conflicts with his other message that Ireland is recovering from the crisis and still enjoys reserves of economic wealth.
Yet like finance ministers across the West, he also has to secure political support for austerity measures. This is increasingly hard to do without forcing bondholders to share at least some of the pain.
Hedge funds also have to watch their step. The political balance of power in Europe is moving against them. If they were to bring a small country like Ireland to its knees, the EU authorities would undoubtedly respond.
IBEC's Mr McCoy said the €40bn(£35bn) total cost of bailing out the banks had landed on the shoulders of 2m people in the Irish workforce, or €20,000 per person.
While this is an understandable cause of anguish, Mr McCoy said savings from a partial default on €3bn of Anglo and INBS subordinated debt, would be a small fraction of this.
Separately, Moody's called for a "credible plan" by the Irish government to bring its budget deficit back to 3pc of GDP by 2014, warning that the country could face a further downgrade. The report had no market impact.

I hate having to rummage through my drawers to find a pair of contact lenses or a hair bobble, while the thought of having my favourite foundation brush out of hands reach makes me whimper. It's the little things eh! These pots and containers help me to organise my stash while still looking modern and stylish - and importantly they're all incredibly affordable. The hexagonal shaped boxes make perfect storage solutions for things like contact lenses, hair pins or cotton buds; they're from Anthropologie (£10.00 each) and intended to be tealight holders, but I loved them too much to just leave them holding a singular flame. The tall boxes that I've turned into brush holders were also intended to hold candles, but this time of the pillar variety; anything that's designed to fit a long and somewhat wide candle makes a perfect brush holder - even if your collection is a fraction of the size of mine! I picked these up in the sale in Homebase for a bargainous £3.00 each. Finally, this little metal pot (£5.60) from homeware favourite Cargo holds all my hair accessories, pins and bands in one place; originally sold as a plant-pot-slash-tealight-holder, it serves a much needed purpose on my dressing table.
The key to creating a clean, fresh, quirky and unique space is to think outside the box when you're picking up bits and bobs. Don't think you can buy everything all at once or from one store, but instead shop around and gradually pick up bits and pieces from different homeware shops and department stores. I never shop in the section I actually need to either, preferring to use my imagination and re-purpose the intended use of containers so they fit my needs. Candle holders, plant pots, vintage glass and trinket boxes all make amazing storage solutions - and they don't have to be expensive. I love rummaging through vintage markets and charity shops, picking up anything I think could look awesome on my dressing table. Most of the designs we pay a lot of money for are based on old school approaches, so why not cut out the middle man and make your beauty storage affordable but fabulous? Cargo, Homebase, Wilkos and ASDA all offer a huge range of bits and bobs that you're sure to treasure... Just not in the way they thought you would.
What do you think of my storage solutions? Do you have any tips for storing your beauty products, or use anything unusual to organise bits and bobs?

World Snooker Shootout: Barry Hawkins and Mark Williams through to last 16
Barry Hawkins and Mark Williams are both safely through to the quarter-finals of the World Snooker Shootout.
Last Updated: 27/01/13 9:12pm
Reigning champion Hawkins was given a scare by Michael White before eventually running out a 43-39 victor in the penultimate match of the afternoon.
The 33-year-old looked in control as he retained a 36-point lead with four-and-a-half minutes remaining.
White moved 39-36 in front, but a poor safety allowed Hawkins to pot a red and pink in the closing seconds to cap an unlikely comeback.
Hawkins will face Stephen McGuire in the quarter-finals after McGuire finished the last of Sunday afternoon's games with a 32-1 win over Dave Harold.
Williams enjoyed a much easier last-32 match with a comfortable 106-8 success over Jimmy Robertson.
The 2000 and 2003 world champion faces Michael Holt, who secured a 69-7 triumph over Jack Lisowski, in the last 16 of this year's competition.
Mark Allen kicked off proceedings with a 92-15 victory over Dominic Dale. The 26-year-old Northern Irishman takes on Kurt Maflin in the quarters after he dispatched Thepchaiya Un-Nooh 71-20.
Nigel Bond, who dumped out world No 1 Mark Selby on Saturday night, fell at the next hurdle as he suffered an 88-24 loss to Martin Gould, who takes on Andrew Higginson next.
Higginson made light work of Liu Chuang with a 60-15 success over the Chinese youngster.

Be the first MLive.com user to add photos or videos of Oscar's Coney Island
Its 9/9/11 at 9 am and I just left Oscar's Coney Island at 6 mile and Wyoming. OK, some guy walks in from a car that pulled up. He says he bought the breakfast he's holding 5 minutes ago, got home and found that he had sausage instead of the ham he had ordered. The cook takes the guys bag, opens the tray, reaches in, grabs 3 or 4 link sausages (with his hand, by the way), THEN THROWS THEM...
Speedy service plus good food. What else would you want from a Coney? Their prices are also reasonable. Try 'em out.

Happy new year! I took some time to disconnect over the last two weeks and enjoy the holidays. For the first post of 2013, I thought it might be a good to review all the picks from the last 3 months to see how I fared.
AIG is still one of my top picks. It is up about only $2 from the price I paid for the stock. However, I feel it still has significant upside. Mainly all the arguments I made previously still apply:
- It trades at half of book value.
- The government completely sold AIG shares at the end of 2012. It now only holds warrants in the company.
- AIG sold its stake in AIA. It also has agreed to sell a majority of its stake in ILFC.
- The company can now focus on its core insurance operations and improve its return on assets.
Dean Foods (DF)
I sold Dean at a little bit of a loss. I still think Fresh Diary Direct segment is undervalued. However, the volatility of Whitewave was too much for me to take. I think the best way to play Dean is to wait for them to distribute the Whitewave shares and buy it before the distribution date if the current prices remain as they are.
General Motors (GM)
GM is one of my biggest winners. It is up nearly 50% for me. The government sold off 200 million shares of its stake in the company to GM recently. This should have a positive impact on EPS. If the economy improves in US and Europe and vehicle sales return to a normalized state, earnings could easily be over $5 over the coming years. Also, it is slowly removing the overhang of the pension liabilities. This could also be a big boon.
With the stock to almost $30, I might cut my position in half and book some profit. The auto industry is very capital-intensive and very competitive.
Orchard Supply Hardware (OSH) & Sears Hometown & Outlet (SHOS)
I have written a lot about these two Sears spin offs and I am short both. As I mentioned in my previous articles, I am convinced Orchard will go under. So far, it has been a very profitable short for me. I am not 100% convinced on Sears Hometown, so I only have a small short position there. Both of these plays are a bit risky, since they are cheap on a revenue multiple basis. Sears Outlet is a wild card for SHOS. If it can grow that successfully, the stock may have upside. I have no faith in the Sears Hometown business as it has had negative same store sale numbers for years. I know a lot fellow financial bloggers are long SHOS and I am open on seeing their analysis. So far, I have been wrong as SHOS. It has bounced nicely from $30 to $35 recently.
Xerox (XRX)
I bought Xerox around $6.50. The stock is around $7.20 today. Nothing fundamentally has changed about the company since I wrote the bullish case. It still trades at a significant discount to FCF and has increased its dividend. I still think there is significant upside.
Genie Energy (GNE)
Genie was a quick arbitrage trade on its offer to exchange common shares for prefered shares. I booked little less than a 10% profit on the trade. I still think there may be an opportunity on this type of trade in Genie in the future. Nobody will exchange the common for the preferred as the common is trading higher than the preferred.
Pandora (P)
I have a small short position in Pandora. So far, it has not been a good trade as the stock has shot up from $8 to $10. I continue to believe that this company will not exist in the future. It really has no barriers to entry, no competitive advantage, and is not profitable. Obviously, a lot of Pandoras profitability depends on the outcome of the Internet Radio Fairness Act. However, there is no doubt that there will be more competitors in this space in the future. I will keep this short position.
Susser Holdings (SUSS)
Susser is up about a $1 from what I bought it at. It may take some time for this stock to go up. However, it should be able to expand a lot faster after the spin-off of SUSP. I have a small position and will keep that position.
I also missed out in some of my other bullish calls such as Facebook, Lumos Networks, Nacco Industries and Einsteins. I wrote a bearish case on Western Union, but the stock has been up since then. I still believe in the bearish case. I believe that Western Unions biggest competitor Moneygram will have a tough 2013 due to Western Unions price cuts. I will be looking to short in 2013.
DIsclosure: I own or am short most of the positions

Softbank Hawks: Oh wants to hold more organizational meetings
by Gen on Feb.04, 2010 @ 4:02 pm, under NPB, Spring Camp
=== 2/5/2010 12:22am JST
...16 Hawks players (grouped into four groups of four players each) visited four special educations schools in the Miyazaki area on Thursday after practice.
...The Hawks players and coaches got their flu shots on Thursday.
=== 10:36pm JST
...Bum-Ho Lee tried his hand at first base on Thursday. While he hasn't been very impressive defensively so far, Koji Akiyama did say that he noticed some improvements and that the best way to get better was to do a lot of fielding drills.
...Tadashi Settsu made it four bullpen sessions in as many days on Thursday. Settsu threw about 60 pitches. He was originally supposed to stop at 50 but felt so good that he threw an additional 10 or so pitches. Settsu told reporters that while his lower body felt tight, his arm and elbow were feeling pretty good.
=== 2/4/2010 4:02pm JST
...Bum-Ho Lee took 57 swings of the bat during BP on Wednesday and hit 3 out.
...Nobuhiko Matsunaka spent about 30 minutes taking 50 swings during soft toss BP and 25 swings during toss BP (similar to soft toss, but using less power in the swing and the toss is thrown from further away).
...Shunya Suzuki (Group B) felt pain in his right elbow on Wednesday and is getting it checked out at a hospital in Miyazaki. Suzuki did toss a bullpen session on Monday, but could not throw one on Tuesday because of the pain.
...Brian Falkenborg threw a total 23 pitches during his bullpen session on Wednesday (yesterday's post mentioned 20): 4 with the catcher standing and 19 with the catcher squatting. His last bullpen session came more than a week ago back in the US. Falkenborg will likely throw his next bullpen session on the 6th.
...Toshiya Sugiuchi is likely to make an appearance in a intra-squad game on the 14th. Sugiuchi held a bullpen session on Wednesday and 83 pitches.
...Tsuyoshi Wada threw about 50 pitches (including his curve) to a squatting catcher during his bullpen session on Wednesday.
...Tadashi Settsu threw about 70 pitches during his third bullpen session in as many days on Wednesday . He told reporters that he'd like to make it four in a row by holding another bullpen session on Thursday.
...Shota Ohba threw about 80 pitches during his bullpen session on Wednesday. Ohba is currently working on his delivery and received 1-on-1 coaching from pitching coach Keisaburo Tanoue both during and after his session.
...The Hawks don't expect Kazumi Saito back this season. They also don't want him rushing.
...Sadaharu Oh would like to hold more organizational meetings this year in order to improve the team. He told reporters it's all about collecting data and sharing it with everyone in the organization.
Oh has already held two meetings since the start of Spring camp: one on Tuesday that lasted 3 hours and focused on foreign players; and one on Wednesday that last 2.5 hours and focused around domestic players.
...Koji Akiyama signed a 1-year sponsorship deal with Morikawa Kenkodo on Wednesday. Akiyama is a huge fan of their Propolis Candy.
...The Hawks took a team photo prior to practice on Wednesday. But it wasn't just any team photo. The photo was taken using 160MP camera (I'm guessing it's it was Seitz). The team photo will ultimately be displayed somewhere in Yahoo Dome.

I'm a mechanical engineer at heart.
Curious about how things work and how they are made.
But my interests are much broader: interface design, additive manufacturing, cryptography, geospatial data and connected technologies, amongst others. I am most comfortable where engineering disciplines intersect, looking at the hard problems of interfacing design, data, science and manufacturing. My work has varied from deploying electronic beacons into the Greenland icesheet, analysing the subtle interactions between dust particles and fluid flow in a micro-molded value system or building a gesture control system to reconfigure a living space.
The best engineer is the one having the most fun.

36-year-old Brian Burke was charged Wednesday with Robbery, Assault and Theft offenses.
Police say Burke of Chester County is currently homeless.
Officials say Burke punched a woman and then stole her prescription glasses during the incident on Monday, April 15th.
Police released the suspect's description and a sketch yesterday.
An anonymous person, who had seen the story on the news, called 911 and provided information which led to Burke's pickup truck.
Investigators were able to recover evidence from the vehicle which linked Burke to the crime.
Burke was arraigned on the charges and bail was set at $75,000 cash. He was unable to post the bail and was remanded to Chester County Prison.
His preliminary hearing is scheduled for Monday, April 29th.

Actor Joel Edgerton is in talks to replace Johnny Depp in the film adaptation of acclaimed book Shantaram.
Studio bosses at Warner Bros. paid $2 million to acquire the rights to the Gregory David Roberts novel in 2004 and Depp was originally tapped to play the lead role, a convicted Australian bank robber who escapes and flees to India.
The project was delayed in 2007 when the Pirates of the Caribbean star dropped out as the movie's star, but he has stayed on as a producer and has reportedly reached out to The Great Gatsby actor Edgerton personally to take over the part, according to Deadline.com.

What a day! A whopping twelve 30 second spots shot in just under 12 hours! That break-neck speed along with the team's meticulous storyboarding and pre-visualization really paid off - these spots were great fun to direct and hopefully even more fun to watch! Also, I got to direct one of my childhood idols - Mark Paul Gosselaar. I just called him "MP."
