"Melancholy characterizes those with a superb sense of the sublime…"
Immanual Kant, 1764*
Melancholy has been defined as a feeling of thoughtful sadness. According to Kant's definition, sublime feelings arouse 'both enjoyment and dread.' There has been a persistent link between melancholy and art throughout the ages. 'Cotton Candy on a Rainy Day' presents current manifestations of this tendency, in a group show of emerging and emergent artists: Christine Bailey (Baltimore), Elizabeth Bick (New Orleans/NY), Ann Craven (NY), William Downs (NY), Rashawn Griffin (NY), Kira Lynn Harris (NY), Sabeen Raja (Pakistan), Sean Ryan (NY), Sigrid Sandstrom (Sweden/NY), and Jina Valentine (Philadelphia). These artists evoke the melancholic nature of life through their works in a broad range of medium, ranging from drawing to video and installation. Curated by artist, Shinique Smith out of her research and interest in understanding the relationships between melancholy and art.
Christine Bailey's sensitive renderings of natural disasters, call to mind the subtle beauties that can be seen while waiting at the edge of a storm.
Elizabeth Bick's photographs are developed through minimal interaction with prostitutes and taxi drivers. She captures the distance between herself and her subject, and between her subjects and the rest of the world as they voluntarily exist in a realm of anonymity.
Ann Craven's paintings of birds or deer imply the impossibility of arresting time and through their multiple renderings become a metaphor of loss.
William Downs' drawings come from internal places; in surreal, romantic and at times empty landscapes hybrid figures navigate their emotional surroundings.
Rashawn Griffin creates 'surrealities' using discarded and natural materials, most of which are items that he likes or he has used. In this way his work engages a personal and an expanded sense of time and space that carries an extreme sense of intimacy.
Kira Lynn Harris explores the possibilities and texture of light, capturing the invisible and fleeting moods that light casts on objects, spaces and memory. Sabeen Raja works out her personal demons by crafting contemporary Pakistani miniature paintings using traditional techniques with themes of love, sadness and displacement.
Sean Ryan navigates the similarities and differences between reason and objects, disrupting their physical function and identity. Through his drawings and sculptures he seeks to express an awkward beauty that lieswithin us, within objects and the space that they inhabit.
Sigrid Sandstrom depicts vast and desolate spaces that exist somewhere between fire and ice. The winter holds a persistence presence in her paintings, video and projected works. "It is as if things are put on hold in the winter. I find the waiting during this season melancholic, but beautiful."
Jina Valentine laments of love and heartache in her intricately cut paper pieces, made using found items such as wallpaper and album covers.
Shinique Smith has had several solo exhibitions including " No dust, no stain" at Cuchifritos Gallery and "Overstock" at The Proposition in New York. Her work has been included in many prominent group exhibitions such as "Frequency" at the Studio Museum in Harlem, "Material Abuse" at Caren Golden Fine Arts, and "25 Bold Moves" hosted by House of Campari in New York. Smith has received fellowships from Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, Henry Street Settlement and the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council among others. This is her first curatorial project.

Another, more recent revelation, is that Apple has implemented content protection on the computers to prevent copyrighted content purchased from the iTunes Store to be played on devices that might digitally record it. (This is based on the same technology that is implemented by Blu-ray players and most HD set top boxes such as those from cable companies).
You may want to keep this in mind when planning purchases of any devices (such as third-party displays, projectors, and HDTVs) either looking for compatible displays or opting for an earlier Mac model with a standard DVI port output.
Used or Refurbished Macs
If your budget is limited, you might also consider purchasing a used or refurbished Mac. Like a good car, most Macs tend to offer pretty good performance even if theyre a couple of years out of date.
You can sometimes find good deals on sites like eBay or Craigslist or other classified outlets. If you are in the market for a used Mac, however, you should investigate the age and models within your price range. In some cases, the difference in price between a used Mac and a newer model arent worth opting for the lower cost in the long term (also like a good car, Macs tend to hold their resale value).
With support for pre-Intel Macs uncertain in Apples upcoming Snow Leopard release of Mac OS X, your best bet for a used Mac is most likely one of the Intel models introduced in the past two years (all of which also offer the ability to run Windows if needed).
That said, an earlier iMac or Mac mini can make a very good option for someone who just needs basic Internet access. EveryMac and Low End Mac are two sites that can be helpful for researching past Mac models.
Apple itself also offers offers refurbished Macs for sale. Refurbished Macs can come from a variety of sources (such as used demo machines, business leased machines that are returned at the end of the lease, and customer returns). Apple does certify that these Macs have been restored to factory conditions and functionality and does offer a one year warranty. While many users report no problems with refurbished Macs, you may want to opt for extended warranty coverage if you purchase one, just to be on the safe side.

Corporate Recovery & Insolvency
Our Specialists
Corporate reorganisations, debt-restructurings, informal work-outs and formal insolvency procedures are increasingly being adopted by businessmen and creditors today. They are realising that there are more options to deal with a business that is not doing well financially, than just winding it up. Such alternative solutions often offer mutual benefits to all parties involved.
Financial difficulty, often the beginning of business failure, does not happen only in a recession. Even when the economy is doing well, various other reasons can also give rise to financial crises - fraud, mismanagement, competition, product obsolescence, etc.
During such financially trying times, parties including creditors, lawyers, credit executives, financial institutions and businessmen may turn to us to undertake formal appointments or turnaround services.
We have the expertise and experience to accept the following appointments:
Liquidators/Provisional Liquidators
Whether it is a situation of a company intending to wind down its business in an orderly manner or that of a creditor seeking to protect his interests, we are able to act as liquidators in each type of winding up:
- Court Winding Up
- Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up
- Members' Voluntary Winding Up
Receivers/Receivers & Managers
Where a loan is secured by a debenture and the lender wishes to protect its security position and interests, he may appoint us as receivers or receivers and managers. We may similarly be appointed by the court, where the court considers that the interests of justice require it.
Scheme Administrators
A debtor under pressure from creditors can turn to us to work out a Scheme of Arrangement under Section 210 of the Companies Act, Cap 50.
Receivers of income
Such appointments are made by mortgagees pursuant to Section 24 of the Conveyancing and Law of Property Act (Cap 61). As a receiver of income, we would collect all rental income accruing to the mortgaged properties for the benefit of the mortgagee.
Agents for mortgagee - in - possession
Where the mortgagee has entered into the possession of the mortgaged property, we may be appointed as agents for the mortgagee-in-possession for the purpose of managing the mortgaged property.
Trustees/Nominees in Bankruptcy
The Bankruptcy Act enables individual debtors to pre-emptively avoid bankruptcy proceedings. We may act as "nominees" to facilitate the consideration and adoption of a composition or scheme of arrangement. In the event of a bankruptcy, we may also act as private trustees in place of the Official Assignee to undertake the administration of a bankrupt's estate.

Book 2, Chapter 1 Summary
Tellson's Bank is a tiny place with small counters and dingy windows. It is a place of metal boxes with yellowed paper, whose custodians are ancient men with monotonous histories of boring clerkship. Because of Tellson's, many forgers, thieves, and counterfeiters are put to death. The odd-job-man of Tellson's is Jerry Cruncher. In this chapter, Jerry is at odds with his wife who actively prays against some of his current "business." While taking his son to his portering job, his son wonders at the rust that always coats his father's fingers.
Book 2, Chapter 1 Analysis
There are odd things in Jerry Cruncher's humble life. Why is his wife praying so ardently against his affairs, which appear to be mostly devoted to portering? Why is there clay on his boots in the morning when they are clean when he comes home from work...

This means America is now a nation of "proles," whom George Orwell described as the majority of the population who are too distracted by "films, football, beer, and above all, gambling" to care about the decline of America and the destruction of the Bill of Rights. If the proles did become aware of the larger evils, the world would change for the better, which is why the establishment wants to keep the majority of the population distracted with "bread and circuses."

Protein 'bullet' guns down cancer cellsNovember 2nd, 2010 - 4:52 pm ICT by IANS
London, Nov 2 (IANS) A protein 'bullet' fired by immune system cells, known as perforin, can gun down cancer cells, researchers say.
Scientists used a powerful electron microscope to see how perforin blasts open cancerous cell membranes to allow toxic enzymes to enter and destroy them.
Images from the microscope showed a ring of perforin molecules clustering together to bore a hole in the cell membrane, according to the journal Nature.
Prof Helen Saibil, from Birkbeck College, University of London, who led the Anglo-Australian team, said: "Perforin is a powerful bullet in the arsenal of our immune system - without it, we could not deal with the thousands of rogue cells that turn up in our bodies through our lives."
Perforin is released by two key weapons in the immune system arsenal, CD8 'killer' T-cells and 'natural killer' (NK) cells, reports the Daily Mail.
Evidence from studies suggests that defective perforin leads to the development of cancers, particularly leukaemia.
The first person to discover that the human immune system could punch holes in target cells was Nobel Prize-winning Belgian microbiologist Jules Bordet, more than 110 years ago.
Prof Saibil said: "From our previous work, we already knew that bacterial toxins, such as the one involved in pneumonia, dramatically change shape to punch holes in membranes.
"We were fascinated by perforin and wanted to know its structure and how that might change in order for it to act as a hole-punching machine."
Co-author Prof James Whisstock, from Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, said: "Now we know how it works, we can start to fine tune it to fight cancer, malaria and diabetes."

No. 13 Penn St. downs No. 10 Ohio St.
Cyr and McCormick combine for 16 points for the Nittany Lions
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- No. 13 Penn State knocked off its third top-10 opponent of the season on Sunday afternoon, as the Nittany Lions downed No. 10 Ohio State (9-4, 1-3), 15-12 on Sunday afternoon. With the key ALC win, Penn State's seventh consecutive against the Buckeyes, the Lions finish the regular season with a stellar 7-1 road record.
The victory also secured Penn State's third consecutive 10 win season for the first time since the 1997-99 seasons and edges head coach Missy Doherty to just one shy to the 100-win plateau for her career.
Penn State (10-4, 2-2) got superb career-best offensive performances from a trio of Nittany Lions in sophomore Mackenzie Cyr and freshmen Maggie McCormick and Haley Ford. Cyr and McCormick each notched a game-high eight points, off four goals and four assists, while Ford scored four goals. Cyr leads the Nittany Lions in goals (27) and points (45) while McCormick has a team-high 23 assists. Ford has been red hot of late, netting a total of eight goals in the last three games.
Senior goalkeeper Dana Cahill made 10saves against 28 Ohio State shots, including several key stops early on to help Penn State keep pace with the Buckeyes. A solid team effort on defense, led by senior Colleen Shea and sophomore Lizzy Carney limited Ohio State's leading scorer, Alayna Markwordt, who entered the game with 69 points, to just two assists.
Penn State got off to a slow start, struggling to win draws and clear the ball through the midfield when it had possession. Back-to-back goals by Cyr and Ford kept the Nittany Lions in the game, but Penn State found itself in a 4-2 hole after 20 minutes of play.
That's when McCormick took the game over. The freshman scored three consecutive goals, getting assists from Cyr and freshman Kelly Lechner on two of them, to provide Penn State with its second lead of the game at 5-4.
Ohio State outscored Penn State, 2-1, throughout the remainder of the half and the game went to the break tied at 6-6, setting the stage for a fast and furious second period.
The second half was a hotly-contested, back-and-forth 30 minutes, featuring four ties and two lead changes. Penn State got bookend goals from Cyr and another from senior midfielder Theresa Zichelli on a 3-1 run to start the half. With 26:09 remaining in the game, the Lions had built their first two-goal lead of the game at 9-7.
Ohio State responded quickly, scoring three unanswered goals in the span of less than a minute a half to retake the lead at 10-9. Penn State repaid the favor, using back-to-back goals from Ford and freshman Tatum Coffey to regain the advantage.
After Ohio State again knotted the game, making it 11-11 at the 17:34 mark, Penn State answered back with two straight. McCormick, off a pass from Cyr, scored her fourth on the day and junior Molly Fernandez netted the Lions' lone free position goal of the game, moving PSU on top 13-11.
Ohio State would tally its final goal of the game with 10:28 remaining. Ford scored a pivotal goal just 20 seconds later to give Penn State some breathing room and allow it to slow the game down. Cyr scored the final Nittany Lion goal at the 6:20 mark, after which PSU was able to hold possession of the ball, drain the clock, and secure the hard fought win.

Despite premiering its second season against competition that included MTV's "Jersey Shore," Fox animated series "Archer" topped its freshman average by 41%.
Thursday's season premiere drew 1.5 million viewers overall and just shy of a million in the 18-49 demo. Among men 18-34, "Archer" improved 75% on its "Two and a Half Men" syndicated lead-in.
On the down side, "Archer" was down from its series premiere a year ago, which hit the bull's-eye with 1.8 million viewers. "Archer" averaged 1.0 million viewers in its first season. But an additional 678,000 viewers watched an 11 p.m. encore of Thursday's episode.
Meanwhile, FX drama "Lights Out" is trying to find a foundation after a rocky start. The third episode of the boxing-themed series Wednesday punched 819,000 viewers, compared with 921,000 the previous week. In December, FX canceled "Terriers" after that series averaged 746,000 viewers over its 13 episodes.

This recipe was given to me by a friend who owned a cafe. I have made it many times and it never seems to fail. (I often put 2 tablespoons of liqueur or brandy into the mousse mixture after it has been melted together).
Altered ingredient amounts. 2 cake tins were used and whipped up some cream to fill the middle with about a tablespoon of the icing mixture. In a fan-forced oven both cakes took about 35 mins. - 04 Aug 2009 (Review from Allrecipes AU | NZ)
what cream do you use? single or double? thanks - 21 Oct 2010 (Review from Allrecipes UK | Ireland)
made this cake for my daughters birthday, it's easy to make but does take sometime however it's is definately worth it as it is just delicious and very rich. I've got a few friends who want me to make the cake for there birthday so it's a winner! - 03 Nov 2009 (Review from Allrecipes AU | NZ)

WSPK (104.7 FM, "K-104.7") is a Top 40 (CHR) radio station licensed to Poughkeepsie, New York and broadcasting from studios at 715 Rt.52 in Beacon, New York. It is owned by Pamal Broadcasting and broadcasts on 104.7 MHz at an ERP of 7.4 kilowatts[1] from a tower at the top of Mount Beacon in Fishkill.
WSPK's main coverage area is centered on the Mid-Hudson Valley, with secondary targeting into the eastern Catskills; Northern Westchester County; the Danbury, Connecticut area; Sussex County, New Jersey; and Pike County, Pennsylvania.[2] For many years, the station's top-of-hour ID mentioned its coverage of parts of five states (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts) and "an itty-bitty piece of Vermont." WSPK reaches the Bronx and, until the launch of stations at adjacent frequencies in the early 1990s, Albany as well. In recent years illegal pirate broadcasters have begun broadcasting on 104.7 in the Bronx and Brooklyn which interfere with K-104's signal in Southern Westchester and the Bronx where the station used to be listenable all the time.
Poughkeepsie Newspaper Incorporated, then owner of WKIP, signed on WHVA 104.7 MHz on December 7, 1947.[3] It was the first FM station to sign on between New York City and the Albany area. The transmitter site was located on North Mount Beacon in an area that was mainly a bungalow colony above the Mount Beacon Incline Railway and casino. The building and tower had been previously used by WOKO[4] in the late 1920s. While that site did not work well for AM radio because of the poor ground conductivity, it proved an excellent site for FM radio due to its height advantages.
In its early years, the station played classical music and for a time was a part of a regional network operated by station WQXR. In 1950, WHVA was sold to the Rural Radio Network, which later turned into Northeast Radio Corp. The call sign was changed to WRRH.[5] In June 1953, WRRH was sold to Dutchess Broadcasting Corporation, owners of WKIP. This would make the second time the station was co-owned with WKIP. The call letters were changed to WKIP-FM and the station adopted a full-time simulcast of WKIP's full service format.
In 1968 WKIP-FM added stereo capabilities and split off from its AM sister station with a Top 40 format.
In 1970 WKIP-FM was sold to Beacon Broadcasting, owner of WBNR, and took on new call letters: WSPK (Stereo Poughkeepsie). With new owners came a 60% simulcast with WBNR that created a varied middle of the road/classical/beautiful music format which was commonplace on many FM stations at the time. The new owners also chose an unusual identifier for an FM frequency: 10-47 (said on-air as "ten-forty-seven").
By 1972, the station changed to a country music format to counter the newly relaunched WPDH. Country did not last long on the frequency and in the Fall of 1974, WSPK adopted a Top 40 format under the moniker "10-47, More Music!", which ran from the Fall of 1974 to early 1977. During this period, WSPK simulcasted the WBNR morning show hosted by Rick Liota. The station also simulcasted with WBNR on the weekends, breaking away for network newscasts on the half-hour and when WBNR ran Yankees baseball, WSPK played pre-recorded oldies tapes voiced by Liota. The national radio show "American Top 40 with Casey Kasem" also debuted during this time and would stay on the air on the weekends until 1988, when WSPK opted to keep Casey Kasem on the air with "Casey's Top 40" until 1991.
In the spring of 1977, WSPK again went after WPDH which had flipped from country to automated album-oriented rock (AOR) a year earlier with instant ratings success. WSPK's AOR format concentrated on quieter tracks than PDH's approach and struggled as WPDH refined its rock format. In 1978, SPK went to an unusual CHR/Oldies hybrid called "Gold N' Stereo" combining music by Sugarhill Gang, Neil Diamond, The Who, Abba, Free, Prince, and the Monkees. The station itself evolved to a more pure CHR "hit music" format from 1980 through 1981.
K104 history[edit]
In 1979, Stew Schantz (who also had worked stints at WPDH, later WSPK program director) re-worked the station's image, branding it "K-104". Schantz and the station's sales manager, Chuck Stewart, picked up the idea from a sales conference out west (there, station call signs usually begin with a "K" where east of the Mississippi River they usually begin with a "W"). The new name worked wonders for a station which had spent the previous decade adrift. Stew returned to mornings at WPDH, but he would later return again to K-104 in the late 1980s. Jim Simonetti was WSPK's first PD in its new incarnation as an Adult Top 40 calling itself K-104. He would later transfer to Beacon Broadcasting's WSCR in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Chris Leide would succeed him as PD until 1989, when afternoon host Sean Phillips would become PD until 1992. Mark Bolger, currently at WCZX (MIX 97FM), joined K104. As a later evening DJ, Bolger was nicknamed as "The Bolge" from 1985 to 1988. He then handled the K-104 morning drive as "Mark Bolger in the Morning on K104" until 1996. Mark Bolger's "Record Crusher" segment, a test play on new hit records, was a notable trademark of his evening show.Nick Robbins also rocked the Hudson valley in K104s early Rock of the Hudson Days, Stew Schantz re-joined K-104 in 1988 after leaving the "Stew and John Morning Show" at WPDH, initially handling the afternoon drive before eventually moving into the midday slot. The "All-Request Lunch at Noon with Stew Schantz" also debuted, with Scotty Mac as the current host as the "All-Request Lunch at Noon with Scotty Mac". Scotty joined the station in 1989 originally handling voiceover and commercial production work with weekend host (and later MD) Chris St. James. With the exception of one year being at KHITS Tulsa, OK in 1998, Scotty Mac is the longest tenured air personality at the station, and is currently midday host and PD.
By the early 1990s, K-104 evolved to a more adult-leaning approach as the CHR format went into a short-term decline. The decline was mainly due to Country Music's resurgence immediately following the Persian Gulf War. With this, the numbers weakened even though there was no real competition for its target audience. In 1996, owner Beacon Broadcasting sold their remaining stations Enterprise Media of Binghamton. Under this new ownership, Mark Bolger left the station, and Stew Schantz handled the K-104 morning drive. Their ownership was short lived, as they in turn sold WBNR and WSPK to Pamal Broadcasting in 1998. Upon Pamal's take over, Schantz resigned from the station. He later went on to do behind-the-scenes work in Utica, Albany and Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Schantz died in June, 2010. The sale to Pamal ended K-104's running of weekend shows such as Open House Party with John Garabedian, Classic Dance Tracks with Stevie T, as well as the K-104 Hometown Countdown.
After Schantz's departure, Brian Krysz took on the program director's responsibilities and hired Kent Bonham ("Woodman") to handle the K-104 morning drive. Krysz programmed the station until May 1999, when Scotty Mac (formerly nights in 1991) took over. The changes led to a re-imaged CHR approach which leaned towards dance music. The station's ratings improved, regaining top position in many key demographics, as well as the 12+ bragging rights. Though in recent years weak competition has come in the form of WPKF and the station is a perennial #1, K-104 is still a dominant force in the Hudson Valley radio markets. K-104 also has the distinction as being the oldest FM 24/7 top 40 station in continuous operation in the United States, as this station pioneered such format on the FM radio dial. Other radio stations in the country including WPLJ, WHTZ (Z-100), KISS 108 (WXKS-FM) Boston and KIIS-FM Los Angeles, would later evolve and emulate into similar 24/7 radio formats. The late Stew Schantz is considered a pioneer in establishing this type of radio format, as he is listed as one of the notable program directors and disk jockeys in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (alongside Alan Freed, Dick Clark, Casey Kasem and many others, local and national).
Kent "Woodman" Bonham hosted the K-104 morning show from 1998 to 2006, when Chris Marino took over for three years. After Chris left the station, Kent "Woodman" Bonham returned in 2009, and has handled the K-104 morning show since then. In 2000, "Skywalker" joined K-104 from WBLI-FM and is currently music director and assistant PD.
K-104 is known for its use of voice-over veteran Mark Driscoll as the station's voice from 1994 to the end of 1997 and from 1999 through today. Before Driscoll the legendary Mitch Craig was the voice guy.
K-104 is the Top 40 radio station in the United States whose terrestrial radio is broadcast over more states than any other Top 40 station in the country and currently can be heard in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Vermont.
In early 2003, Pamal Broadcasting purchased WYNY (107.1 MHz), the Westchester County portion of the "Y-107/Rhumba 107.1" "quadcast" from Nassau Broadcasting (which itself had bought all four stations from Big City Radio). On April 9 of that year, WYNY took on the WXPK calls and the stations relaunched as "K-104 and K-107". Due to various problems keeping the station on the air and generating revenue with the Westchester signal, the simulcast ended one year later when the 107.1 frequency changed to adult album alternative as "107.1 The Peak".
K-104 is one of the few Hudson Valley radio stations (along with co-owned WHUD) that is live 24/7.
WSPK holds a yearly event known as K*Fest; for more information see K Fest (Radio). In 2007, rapper Akon threw a boy off the stage into the crowd, an event which attracted media attention. As of November 29, 2007 charges have been filed against Akon regarding this incident. Charges include, Endangering the Welfare of a Minor, a misdemeanor and second-degree harassment.[6]
The K104 Christmas Wish[edit]

Where Listeners have the chance to write about someone they know who has had a rough time through the year and they are given the chance to write a letter and are able to earn the family they are writing about a chance to have a magical holiday season with the 12 days of Christmas wish giving that family a $500 gift certificate to one of the area malls.

Media Stats Tracks Your ROI
Monday August 23, 2010 | Filed under: Member Benefits, News About ASI
There's no question advertising is vitally important for any business. (It's the first name of ASI!) Now, we're offering a new way for advertisers in our print publications to effectively gauge their advertising ROI through ASI Media Statistics, which tracks results for ESP, LogoMall and print – all in one place.
It couldn't be easier. Every month, suppliers can either check their inbox or go online to review a set of comprehensive reports tracking all ASI magazines, catalogs and editorial mentions for advertisers. We've been offering similar stats for ESP and LogoMall customers for years, so adding print was the next logical step.
A team here at ASI consolidates all the data from a variety of sources to create a tailored report for each advertiser. In addition, if an advertiser sends us a list of their competitors, we'll track those ad pages as well, so the advertiser can see just how their company stacks up. It makes strategizing and planning a snap.
To read our press release about this latest service, click here. To review ASI Media Statistics, click here.
ASI offers numerous print advertising opportunities, including our eight catalogs and six magazines: Advantages, Counselor, Successful Promotions, Stitches, Supplier Global Resource and Wearables. It's worth noting that ASI publications have recently won 35 national editorial awards, including three Jesse H. Neal Awards – considered the Pulitzer Prize of B-to-B journalism.
Let me know what you think is the most effective advertising vehicle by posting a comment or emailing me here. I'm also on Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube.
P.S. I can't help but suggest you ask other magazine publishers to provide equivalent reports, and then – if they can! – compare your ROI from ASI magazines and digital media with any of our competitors. Hands down, we provide the best ROI you can get – and that's based on conversations with our advertisers. If you get reports that show otherwise, drop me an email because I want to know.

The Rays were nine games behind the Red Sox in the wild card standings as recently as Sept. 2, but they enter a four-game series at Fenway Park on Thursday in control of their own destiny. It is still a considerable margin to overcome -- and probably won't be overcome -- but if Tampa Bay sweeps Boston for the second consecutive weekend, the two clubs will be tied with 10 games remaining.
While the probability of the Rays actually making the playoffs is slim -- coolstandings.com gives them a 4.8 percent chance; Baseball Prospectus says it's only 1.6 percent likely -- they have at least injected some interest into the seasons final few weeks and do have a few things going in their favor that could help their longshot odds:
* The Rays are 8-3 in their last 11; the Sox are 3-8.
* The Rays are 39-29 in regular-season games against the Sox since the start of 2008. During that time the Rays won four straight meetings four times, though only once were the four games in the same series.
* The Rays continue to get outstanding starting pitching (see below) while the Red Sox are scrambling to fill starts, though Josh Beckett returns on Friday.
So while the chance of the Rays overtaking the Sox is very small, they have been playing much better baseball of late and overtake the Red Sox by a spot in this week's Power Rankings.

Milwaukee has used only six starting pitchers -- the fewest of any team in the majors -- and relied on that sixth starter, Marco Estrada, only seven times. While neither Estrada nor original No. 5 starter Chris Narveson has been all that good of late, neither will have to make a playoff start. The other four have logged seven quality starts in their last nine turns with one of those misses a one-run, nine-strikeout start by Zack Greinke that lasted only five innings.

The suspects, aged 15 and 17, claimed they wanted to launch an assault similar to those in Paris last November, police said.
17:31, UK,Saturday 12 March 2016
Two teenage girls have been charged in France with allegedly plotting to attack a Paris concert hall four months after the city's massacre.
The suspects, aged 15 and 17, exchanged messages on Facebook where they claimed they wanted to launch an assault similar to those in the French capital on 13 November, according to the police.
Some 130 people were killed when terrorists targeted a rock concert at the Bataclan music hall, where 90 people died, as well as bars, restaurants and a football stadium.
The girls were arrested on Wednesday and appeared before an anti-terror judge on Friday on charges of criminal conspiracy in connection with a terrorist undertaking.
The younger suspect was to remain in custody while the 17-year-old would be released under judicial supervision, the prosecutor's office said.
The discussions about the attack were in the preliminary stage and "neither weapons, nor explosive substances have been discovered", prosecutors added.
Two other girls, who allegedly joined in the conversations, were questioned but released without charge.
France remains under a state of emergency and on high alert after last autumn's atrocity by Islamic State-linked extremists.

To read a decimal, say the number to the left of the decimal point as a whole number. Use the word "and" to indicate the decimal point. Read the number to the right of the decimal point as a whole number, ending with the place value of the last digit.Continue Reading
For example, if the number is 3489.721, read the number 3489 as a whole number indicating place value by saying "three thousand, four hundred, eighty-nine."
After reading the number to the left of the decimal point, say the word "and" as a bridge between the whole number on the left side and the decimal fraction on the right side.
In the example, 3489.721, read 721 as if it were a whole number with no decimal point by saying "seven hundred twenty-one."
Finish saying the decimal by indicating the place value of the digit furthest to the right of the decimal point. In the example, 3489.721, the place value of the digit 1 is a thousandth. The whole decimal read aloud is "three thousand, four hundred, eighty-nine and seven hundred twenty-one thousandths."

These are available at Ali-Craft.
And this is the set I have been using.
The Front.
You can just see some of the inner pages which I decorated using the stamp that Ali sent me.
The only extra things I used were: ribbon, white paper and the dome stickers, everything else came from the pad.
- Spray the card with the glycerin/water mixture to soften it and keep crinkling the paper and reapplying the glycerin until you get the effect that looks like chamois leather.
- You need to be careful that it doesn't rip, but the odd cut doesn't matter as it is lined inside.
- Allow it to dry a little and then go over it with any brown distress ink which will be picked up by the creases.
- I have used an an embossing folder with mine but that is up to you.
- You should then seal the ink using a spray glue or apply one with a brush this also serves to strengthen the card.
- I stamped a large piece of calico big enough to line the inside and make a pocket. I glued the lining to the inside before putting the whole thing together.
- The back section is longer than the front to allow for the flap.
- I attached metal fasteners and then joined everything together by machining them.
- As I had a little of the card left over, I also made two tags which can be seen in the pocket.

Software Engineering As A Craft
I have been recently reading a book which advocates that we take software engineering as a craft rather than a profession and as such the software engineer should go through the three stages of craftsmanship, which are apprentice, journeyman and finally master. The apprentice is supposed to learn the craft from the journeyman and occusionaly from the master but mostly from the journeyman as they will be assisting them in their day to day tasks. The journeyman are supposed to learn from the master. l believe this is what has been laking in software engineering in zimbabwe young students are just thrown into the deepend and they get to learn things on the fly and as a result we are producing sub-standard software. It sad just how many bugs slip through the software testing phase if there is any to begin with. l still think more can be done to improve the quality of software and software engineers in Zimbabwe so l am going to dedicate my next post to how l think the three stages of craftsman should be structured.

Our friends at Project ORE (a program for Jewish Elders that's a part of the Educational Alliance) have become avid hydroponic farmers after 8 weeks of classes with us this summer. They're growing lettuce, basil, arugula, thyme, and other salad greens and aromatic herbs to use in their cafeteria, or to enjoy at home.
Project ORE is using a raft system with four reservoirs: two for smaller plants, and two for larger plants. Although there is some natural light in the room, we installed some additional lighting to make sure that the plants are healthy and strong. The systems are surrounded by drawings made by Project ORE clients, as well as some hydroponic fun facts that we all put together.
Congratulations to our newest "crop" of farmers. L'Shana Tova/Happy New Year to all!

The girls' lacrosse team played and defeated our biggest rival in the RVAL league today. We started strong, playing our most complete offensive game of the year. More importantly, the girls discovered what they can become, showing a level of faith and confidence in each other that propelled them to wide open offensive opportunities. The work they have been doing in practice showed fully on the field today.
Up 10-5 at the half, and with a number of less experienced players cycling into the game, it would have been easy to allow SBS to narrow the lead in the second half. Instead, the team played better team defense in the second half, allowing only one goal after half time.
Seven players contributed to the scoring for Dublin: Adunni Abrams (1G); Stella Davis (2G, 1A); Hope Fowler (3G; 2A); Sabrina Hayden (2G, 2A); Bette Imhoff (7g, 2A); Fiona Johnson (1G); and Brianna Moore (1A). Amani Natson was again outstanding in goal, registering 13 saves.

CNET First Look
LG Esteem (MetroPCS)Built to take a beating (or give one), the LG Esteem shows MetroPCS grasping the Android bull by the horns in its best smartphone yet.
-Hey everyone, I'm Jessica Dolcourt for CNET.com. This is your first look at the LG Esteem for Metro PCS. Now, this is a 4G phone and you remember that Metro PCS was first out of the gate with its 4G LTE network, but since then it's been slow trading out the phone. So, this is only the 3rd phone and it's the second 4G smartphone. This is also the carrier's best smartphone to date. It's got a very large 4.3-inch touchscreen display. It runs android 2.3 Gingerbread. That's why it's really clear and bright, which very nice, 4 touch sensitive buttons below. For the external, it's got an HDMI out port, 5-megapixel camera with auto focus and flash and it also has a 1.3-megapixel front facing camera and I have to say that I was pretty impressed with the quality on both these cameras, very nice. For the internal, it got 5 gigabytes of internal memory, but it does have an external storage card that will hold up 32 gigabytes of external memory. It's also running on a 1 gigahertz snapdragon processor. So that keeps things moving pretty quickly. When it comes to the phone body and soul, this is a pretty tough phone, really big, heavy, weighs 6 ounces. Usually, you don't see that. It looks there is a lot of metal and a keyboard. There is a little bit of metal. No keyboard on this. So, it looks like it can really take a bidding. In fact, that was in my bag next to a phone that did have a case on it and I could not tell which was which. So, I would not worried about breaking this one any time soon. One of the biggest cons with this phone is the battery life it's got a rated talk time of only 3-1/2 hours and that's not including daily usage, so I found that the battery life drain pretty quickly and that can turn some people off really fast. When it comes to 4G speed, Metro PCS isn't known as having the zippiest network, but it's 4G speed especially on the Esteem are considerably faster than Metro PCS's regular network, which only clocks 2.5 G speed. This is about $250 after $100 mail in rebate and when you compare this to the Samsung Galaxy Indulge, which Metro PCS's other android phone for 4G and it's about $50 more. The other one has a slide out QWERTY keyboard but the specs on this one are much better, so that's pretty fair value and that's with a new contact price. Specs-wise, this definitely Metro PCS's best smartphone. The battery life could pose a problem though to some people on the go. Otherwise I've really encouraged you to take a look. I'm Jessica Dolcourt for CNET. This the LG Esteem for Metro PCS. You can find the full review on CNET.com

SUNY Potsdam weekly sports recap - Week of Oct. 21th 2013
SUNY Potsdam weekly sports recap - Week of Oct. 21th 2013
SUNY Potsdam sports weekly recap
Week of October 21
Men's Soccer
Potsdam split a pair of matches and clinched the sixth seed in the SUNYAC playoffs. The Bears will play at No. 3 seed Brockport on Saturday. Game start will be 30 minutes after the conclusion of the women's soccer match that begins at 11 a.m.
Potsdam (9-8-1 overall, 3-5-1 SUNYAC) has reached the playoffs twice in the last three seasons.
On Friday, junior midfielder Conor Engle (Auburn, N.Y./Auburn) scored and senior goalkeeper Stefan Sloma (Niskayuna, N.Y./Niskayuna) made eight saves as Potsdam defeated SUNY Geneseo 1-0 on Friday afternoon. The victory was the Bears first over the Blue Knights since 1991 and matched the program's single-season wins mark set in 1983 (9-6).
Geneseo came out firing in the first 20 minutes, but Sloma made several big saves to keep the Potsdam in the contest. Eventually the defense raised its game and the play evened out. The Blue Knights edged Potsdam 14-11 in shots in the first half, but the chances were nearly even. Sloma finished the half with six saves in the opening 45 minutes, while his Geneseo counterpart, Logan Calvey stopped four shots.
The Bears turned up the pressure in the second half and were rewarded. Just over eight minutes into the period, junior midfielder Alex Minsker (Brewster, N.Y./Brewster) sent a corner kick into the box and Engle headed it home for the decisive tally. The Blue Knights controlled the play the last 20 minutes, but couldn't draw even.
On Saturday, the College at Brockport built a big first half lead en route to a 7-3 victory over Potsdam.
The first Bears' goal came when Minsker tipped a hard pass from junior forward Eduardo Figueroa (Rochester, N.Y./Dr. Freddie Thomas) past Golden Eagles goalie Casey Sullivan.
The Bears notched their second goal just over five minutes into the final period. Senior captain Alessio Vitale (Liverpool, N.Y./Liverpool) scored on a pass from Minsker to make it 5-2. At 76:08, Potsdam freshman defender Chris Schrum (Roosevelt Island, N.Y./Millenium) made it 6-3 with an assist from sophomore forward Stephen Auyer (Oswego, N.Y./Oswego).
Women's Soccer
On Friday afternoon, SUNY Geneseo scored an early goal and made it stand up as the Blue Knights topped Potsdam 1-0 at Maxcy Turf Field. The loss eliminated the Bears from playoff contention.
Geneseo controlled the play in the first half, but were only able to get one goal on the board. At the 18:44 mark, freshman forward Erin O'Connor (Remsen, N.Y./Remsen) snuck a shot past Potsdam freshman goalkeeper Michaela Cole (Parishville, N.Y./Parishville-Hopkinton) with a helper from senior midfielder Alexa Vojvodic (Mineola, N.Y./Sacred Heart Academy). Cole finished with five saves in the first 45 minutes and the Bears defense quickly defused Geneseo's other chances.
On Saturday, The College at Brockport defeated Potsdam 3-0 on a windy, cold day at Maxcy Turf Field. Prior to the game, the Bears celebrated captain Kate Clauss' (Bloomfield, N.Y./Bloomfield) career on Senior Day.
In the first half, the Golden Eagles controlled the play territorially, but had a difficult time cracking Potsdam's defense. Brockport finally got a shot on goal in the 34th minute as senior midfielder Annie Terilli (Brockport, N.Y./Brockport) lofted a high shot over Potsdam senior goalie Lisa Bates (Galway, N.Y./Galway) for a 1-0 lead. Sophomore midfielder Courtney Szczesniak (Liverpool, N.Y/Liverpool) assisted on the marker. Potsdam evened out the play after the goal with several shots of its own, but the score remained the same at the break.
The Bears (5-11-1 overall, 2-7 SUNYAC) wrapped up the season with their most wins ever under third-year head coach Mark Misiak and with their most conference victories since 2007.
Potsdam went 1-2 on the weekend, but managed to still clinch a playoff spot for the SUNYAC tournament.
The Bears (13-14 overall, 5-4 SUNYAC) locked up the fifth seed and will play Plattsburgh at top-seeded SUNY New Paltz on Friday, Nov. 8 at 6 p.m.
Seeking to gain ground in the SUNYAC standings, the Potsdam volleyball team was turned back at Buffalo State in straight sets 25-13, 25-18, 25-12 on Friday night.
The Bengals (19-8 overall, 6-1 SUNYAC) started quickly and never looked back. It got big performances from Samantha Parente (10 kills), Sarah Horvath (11 digs, nine kills) and Kelsey Bashore (30 assists, seven digs).
Senior setter Jenna Blujus (Baldwinsville, N.Y. / C. W Baker) led the Bears with the 10 digs, nine assists and five kills. Lauren Manzo (Clovis, Calif. / San Joaquin) had eight assists and eight digs.
Senior middle hitter Sara Anderson (Lake George, N.Y. / Lake George) and senior outside hitter Dakota Pruiss (Wallkill, N.Y. / Wallkill) each totaled four kills.
On Saturday, Potsdam lost to a streaking New Paltz team in four sets (25-15, 25-21, 25-27, 25-20). The Hawks (27-5 overall, 9-0 SUNYAC) have been red hot, extending its winning streak to 15 consecutive matches. In the process, it also clinched the top seed and home court advantage for the SUNYAC Tournament.
The Bears fought valiantly, however, by taking the third set in a squeaker.
Blujus led with 24 digs, 12 kills, five assists and two blocks. Junior outside hitter Liza Fields (Duanesburg, N.Y. / Duanesburg) had 13 digs, 11 kills and three blocks. Pruiss tallied 19 digs and eight kills.
In the later match, Potsdam got back on the winning side by knocking off Brockport 25-21, 23-25, 25-21, 25-14.
Anderson was extremely efficient by racking up 13 kills against no errors on 19 total attacks for a staggering .684 hitting percentage.
Pruiss chalked up another productive match by picking up 14 digs, 11 kills, three aces and three blocks. Manzo equaled her largest output for assists in a match with 33 and also added 14 digs. Blujus had 19 digs, nine kills and three blocks. Fields chipped in with eight kills and eight digs.
Featured athletes of the week
Junior midfielder/forward Alex Minsker (Brewster, N.Y. / Brewster) tallied four points in two matches for the Potsdam men's soccer team this past week.
Alex had the game-winning assist to Conor Engle in the Bears' 1-0 win at SUNY Geneseo on Friday and then followed it up with a goal and an assist in the match at Brockport on Saturday.
For that, Alex is the Bears' male athlete of the week.
Senior outside hitter/right side Dakota Pruiss (Wallkill, N.Y. / Wallkill) collected 33 digs, 23 kills, 11 assists, five aces and five blocks in three matches for the Potsdam volleyball team this past week.
Dakota set single-game season-highs in digs with 19 against New Paltz, in assists with eight against Brockport and tied a season-high in blocks with three versus Brockport.

With Google's announcement of its agreement to acquire Motorola Mobility Holdings, the search giant has potentially turbocharged its mobile payment plans.
Where before, the Google Wallet was only set up to work with the Sprint Nexus S phone (most other telecom providers have joined the ISIS mobile payment consortium), now Google will be able to design, manufacture and distribute its own phones, presumably with Google Wallet software and mobile payment technology preloaded [we were unable to reach Google representatives this morning for comment]. Google has already gotten Citi, MasterCard, Sprint, First Data and sixteen merchants to partner on its Google Wallet mobile payment scheme, which is still in test mode but will support contactless payments from near-field communication-equipped phones.
"This absolutely strengthens Google' position in mobile payments," says Nick Holland, senior analyst with Yankee Group. "The big issue for mobile payments has been the secure element [the computer chip on a phone that would store encrypted payment card credentials], the physical hardware that allows someone to own the mobile wallet. By having ownership of Motorola, which makes 10% of smart phones in U.S., Google has the potential to put its own secure element in all those devices."
Mobile operators typically choose the handsets they offer consumers. Owning Motorola Mobile will put Google in a position to negotiate directly with mobile operators, rather then through a handset manufacturer such as Samsung, Holland points out. (Samsung is currently the only manufacturer of Google's Nexus S phone.) The mobile operators, most of whom have joined the ISIS mobile payment consortium, are likely to balk at allowing Google devices on their networks. However, due to Motorola's 10% market share, they may be forced to accept them or risk turning away subscribers. Google could even make a radical move such as give away handsets to ratchet up market share for its phones. Google has said all along that it doesn't plan to make revenue off of mobile payments; its revenue model is based on advertising.
This is a key difference between the Google Wallet and other mobile payment solutions, and one that Holland believes gives it the upper hand versus ISIS: Google is offering space on its mobile wallet to card issuers for free. ISIS intends to charge a rental fee to card issuers for space on its wallet.
ISIS has strength in its number of partners. In addition to the three major telecom operators who are members -- AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile – the consortium has signed on four credit card companies: American Express, Discover, MasterCard and Visa.
For banks, it makes sense to consider both of these schemes and others. "There's no reason for exclusivity," Holland says. "Citi is backing Google at the moment, there's no reason they couldn't do ISIS as well."
Google's choice of Motorola Mobility is logical – all Motorola phones use the Google-designed Android operating system. Google says that post acquisition, the Android operating system will remain open and Google will run Motorola as a separate business. There are about 150 million Android devices in the world today.
The Google Wallet app currently works with a Samsung Nexus S near-field-communication-enabled phone (meaning a phone equipped with technology that can send and receive data wirelessly within a range of a few centimeters) and MasterCard PayPass terminals, which are used by 140,000 merchants. When the Google Wallet publicly launches on the Sprint network later this summer, customers who have a Citi-issued MasterCard or a Google prepaid card that they link to the downloaded Google Wallet app will be able to tap their mobile phone to pay for something at a participating merchant's terminal.
