The ATP Tour descends on Flushing Meadows for US Open 2015, the final Grand Slam of the season. Join us as we preview the men's draw and serve up choice tennis picks to win each quarter.
First Quarter: Djokovic Favored
Top Seeds:[1] Djokovic and [8] Rafael Nadal
Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal are slated to collide in the quarterfinals if all goes to plan in this section, which should set up a scintillating showdown that tennis enthusiasts are sure to appreciate. Fittingly, the pair are matched as the top favorites to clinch the quarter –albeit with Djokovic miles ahead as the -333 favorite and Nadal the distant second favorite at +400.
Djokovic's immediate path to the quarters looks straightforward enough in the first few rounds and, even, the later rounds en route to the quarterfinals. Players such as Andreas Seppi, Jerzy Janowicz and David Goffin are strewn in various spots through to the R16. While they could give him a run for his money and make a match of it, beating Djokovic is another matter entirely.
Nadal's section is strewn with bigger obstacles, making his path to the quarterfinals a veritable minefield. He opens against a bright prospect Borna Coric, who has beaten him before. If he survives the opening round scare, he could come up against Fabio Fognini, Feliciano Lopez (+5000), Fernando Verdasco or Milos Raonic (+1200 to win quarter), to name a few.
Tennis Picks: Djokovic -333
Outside Tennis Picks: Nadal +400 or Raonic +1200
Second Quarter: Nishikori Favored
Top Seeds: [4] Nishikori and [7] Ferrer
Last season's runner-up Kei Nishikori emerges as the favorite in the second quarter at +163 to win outright. He's favored above defending champion Marin Cilic (+400), the player he lost to in the final. That's largely down to Cilic's lack of form this season after suffering an injury late last year.
Nishikori's path to the quarterfinals is quite favorable, but by no means easy. He has a tough opener against Benoit Paire, a potential second round clash against veteran Radek Stepanek and a third round clash against Sam Groth, Alexandr Dolgopolov or Tommy Robredo, to name a few. The fourth round could get trickier with a pair of Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Gael Monfils looming as the likeliest challenges.
In the bottom half of this section, David Ferrer strikes an unassuming pose as the +1400 long shot to win the section. However, considering what a dogged competitor Ferrer is, his section looks negotiable. His toughest obstacle to the quarterfinal comes in the form of either Dimtrov or Cilic (both priced at +400 to win the quarter), but neither is sporting sensational form ahead of the 2015 US Open. Dimtrov's form in fact was so disappointing this term that he parted ways with his coach. Other tough obstacles come in the form of Jeremy Chardy and Martin Klizan, to name a few. Still, in the best of five, Ferrer is usually a winning horse to back on your tennis picks.
Tennis Picks: Nishikori -400
Outside Tennis Picks: Ferrer +1400 or Tsonga +650
Third Quarter: Murray Favored
Top Seeds: [3] Murray and [5] Wawrinka
Andy Murray falls into the toughest section of the tournament with Stanislas Wawrinka flanking the opposite end of the quarter. The pair are the top tennis picks to win this section, naturally. Murray, however, edges Wawrinka as the -150 favorite while the Swiss is matched at +225 tennis odds. In our opinion, the pair has an equal shot to win this section.
Neither will have a straightforward path to the quarterfinals though. Murray faces a tough Nick Kyrgios in round 1 of the 2015 US Open while Wawrinka could come up against big-serving Gilles Muller or home fave Jack Sock in the third round.
If Murray survives the early scare against Kyrgios (+2200 to win the quarter), he could come up against dangerous floater Adrian Mannarino (+8000), in-from Kevin Anderson (+2200) or rising star Dominic Thiem (+3300)
Wawrinka, on the other hand, might have to negotiate a path to the quarterfinals at the expense of several threats such as American Ryan Harrison, dogged Frenchman Gilles Simon (+3300) and Latvian hothead Ernest Gulbis (+2800).
Tennis Picks: Murray -150 or Wawrinka +225
Outside Tennis Picks: Kyrgios +2200, Anderson +2200 or Giles Simon +3300
Must Check: WTA US Open Draw & Quarter Predictions
Fourth Quarter: Federer Favoured
Top Seeds: [2] Federer and [6] Berdych
Roger Federer is after a gauntlet throwing win over Djokovic in the Cincinnati final, beating the Serbian starlet in straight sets. Not unlike last year, mind. The win over Djokovic sets up Federer as one of Djokovic's biggest threats to the title. Of course, before Federer can reach the final and potentially give Djokovic a run for his money, he'll need to negotiate a tricky section, one that he's favored to win at -200 tennis odds.
Tomas Berdych (+450) flanks the opposite end and could set up a quarterfinal showdown with the maestro if all goes to plan. The section is riddled with obstacles, including Richard Gasquet (+1400), American John Isner (+1200) and Aussie Bernard Tomic (+2500), amongst several others.
Federer opens his tournament against Leonardo Mayer, a tricky Argentinean. If he survives the first round, he could come up against fan favorite Marcus Baghdatis. In the third round, he could face a pair of tricky opponents such as Lukas Rosol or Philipp Kohlschreiber (+3300). In the R16, a couple of big-servers are the likeliest to emerge: John Isner or Ivo Karlovic (+3300).
Berdych, meanwhile, has a slightly less treacherous path to the quarterfinals with some winnable early potential matchups against players such as Jurgen Melzer, Sam Querrey and Janko Tipsarevic. Not that they couldn't trouble him, but he has the form and ranking to overcome any challenge from either of these players. The R16 could get trickier with Richard Gasquet, Bernard Tomic or Lleyton Hewitt emerging, amongst several others.
Tennis Picks: Federer -200
Outside Tennis Picks: Berdych +450 or Isner +1200 or Gasquet +1200

Scott Turow doesn't like the DOJ's actions against Apple and Publishers
The views in the post are solely those of its author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Florida Writers Association, its leadership, or its members.
Alanis Morissette had a hit called Ironic in the mid-1990s, in which she described a number of situations she thought were ironic (like a guy who had a phobia of flying, then died in a plane crash the first time he flew). The typical response was "that's not ironic, that sucks!"
Morrissette's song came to mind in reading Scott Turow's note to Author's Guild members about the Department of Justice's notice to five of the big six publishers and Apple. The DOJ is investigating collusion among the parties in instituting the agency model for book pricing. Turow called the action "grim news for everyone who cherishes a rich literary culture."
Turow's e-mail says that Amazon is using its deep pockets and predatory pricing to capture the entire e-book market with its proprietary format for Kindles. In other words, the supercheap pricing Amazon has made available is there to assure that it captures the market for e-books. Once that's done, and it's the only game in town, it can do whatever it wants with e-book prices.
Turow also claims that Amazon is pushing to make bookselling unprofitable for current competition, taking losses it can sustain in order to force its competition to cut its prices–effectively forcing them to discount themselves to death to compete. He cites Amazon's business practices as a contributing factor in Borders' demise.
From this viewpoint, there's a lot of validity to some of Turow's claims. As he points out, since the agency model was adopted, Amazon's share of the e-book market has dropped from 90% to 60%. The Nook has gained a foothold in the market, but Amazon is taking steps to funnel people toward the Kindle family of products. Its lending library requires an exclusivity period for included books. Its other books are available on a proprietary format that doesn't run on other e-readers. And it is starting to cut ties with business partners who don't concede to its pressure for more favorable business terms.
In short, now that Amazon is the distribution point for a huge percentage of publishers' products, it's using that leverage to dictate business terms–at least in Turow's eyes.
Many customers cheer Amazon's discounting and have taken revenge on "greedy authors" who seem to inordinately profit from the agency model through customer reviews.
In my view, it's unclear whether publishers and Apple are guilty of collusion. If they are, it was a stupid move born of desperation. Amazon appears to believe it has enough power to dictate the terms of engagement with its customers now, and it doing so. It is actively trying to establish itself as a near-monopoly in bookselling and using its deep pockets to inflict losses on its competition with the ultimate goal of wiping them out.
But some of the blame must lie with the publishing industry. Its approach to e-book sales to libraries–particularly Penguin's–are keeping its products from customers who want to pay for them. Its approach to e-books in general could be seen as recalcitrant. They fought their future business model when they should have been embracing it and exploiting it to assure future survival. In this rebuttal to Turow, David Gaughran says that Amazon should get credit for essentially creating the market for e-books when everyone else pursued it half-heartedly. Gaughran's response tackles what Turow says point-by-point and is worth reading. (It does not, however, response to the concerns of others about Amazon's pricing approach.)
The simple fact is that publishers may have colluded with Apple and Amazon may be using predatory business practices that merit a second look as well. The two "sides" to this argument are hardly mutually exclusive. It's very difficult to view Amazon as a victim when it is using its role as a prime distributor to force deeper discounts from the companies whose products it is carrying.
Any DOJ action will undoubtedly favor Amazon, even if there's no judgement in its favor. Everyone else will find it harder to stand up to the biggest kid in the sandbox.
It's like rain on your wedding day. A traffic jam when you're already late. It's like meeting the man of your dreams and then meeting it's beautiful wife.

Great thoughts; The big guns trying to control the purse strings, just a different big Gun. Us "want/thinking we are great authors," looking for a way to sell books with a new type of market to opening up? Great! Yet at the same time if it's a flea market mentality, selling price you never truly win, although you may be selling books/ebooks. This is making it interesting about how are we going to sell books? What makes your's better? There's is no set rules anymore and those could change. Thanks for the updates.
March 12, 2012 9:31 am
Thanks for the mention. I just wanted to clarify one point. I don't think Amazon "should get credit for essentially creating the market for e-books." I think that counts for nothing in business and law. The reason I mentioned that "everyone else pursued it half-heartedly" (or not at all), was to explain *why* Amazon had 90% of the market (at the beginning of 2010).
They didn't achieve this figure through browbeating the competition or (as is often implied but never proved) predatory pricing or anything like that. They achieved it virtually by default as they were the only serious player with a serious product focusing on this market.
I've no issue whatsoever with Amazon potentially being investigated, if there is a case. I'm confident the DoJ would have no problem pursuing such an action if there is grounds.
March 12, 2012 3:00 pm
Amazon does not set prices of books sold at Amazon, authors do. I decide what price my E-books sell for. The Big Six New York publishers want me to raise my E-book prices so they can better peddle their paper books. And, NY wants me to go away. I will do neither.
Amazon's business model has allowed thousands of new and mid-list authors to make a nice living. NY rejected us, and that won't be forgotten.
It's too late for NY to recover. Amazon now sells more books than anyone. And, once readers buy a Kindle, there is no going back to paper. The NY publishing establishment created a dsitribution monopoly through sweetheart deals with bookstores. But now, they have competition, the same way NBC, CBS, and ABC had to step aside for Cable TV. There's a new Sheriff in town, and NY still doesn't realize their monopoly on what gets published is over. Too bad, so sad.
Attila Berki permalinkMarch 16, 2012 11:58 am
NY isn't trying to make you (self-publishers) raise your book prices; they are trying to control what their own books are sold for. Imagine Amazon telling you that they were going to sell your book for 25 cents when you want to sell it for $2.99. Once they sell it for .25 people will think $2.99 is an outrageous price, and you will likely never recoup your costs, much less make any money from your work.

Ibram Lassaw
American Sculptor
Movements and Styles: Abstract Expressionism, The New York School and Abstract Expressionism
Born: May 4, 1913 - Alexandria, Egypt
Died: December 30, 2003 - The Springs, East Hampton, New York
Important Art by Ibram Lassaw
The below artworks are the most important by Ibram Lassaw - that both overview the major creative periods, and highlight the greatest achievements by the artist.
Sculpture in Steel (1938)
Artwork description & Analysis: After experimenting with plaster, rubber and wire, Lassaw began working with steel, which became a frequent medium for the artist, along with other metals. Sculpture in Steel, composed of biomorphic forms, reflects the important influence Surrealists such as Alberto Giacometti and Joan Miró had on Lassaw. This sculpture, Lassaw's first crafted from welded sheet metal, also reveals the distinct influence of Alexander Calder's mobiles. Around this time, Lassaw was also creating shadowbox sculptures and other works shaped around similar rectangular frames, beginning to develop pieces that depended on and created empty space as a structural element.
Steel - Whitney Museum of American Art, New York
Milky Way (1950)
Artwork description & Analysis: Milky Way is notable for signaling a new direction in Lassaw's mature open space style. He considered it his breakthrough sculpture. Here Lassaw was able to work without the rigid framework he had used to support more delicate organic forms. Previous efforts to work in this style has failed due to the use of structurally poor materials such as plaster and metalized compounds. The work is made from a plastic-metal paste which could be applied and shaped by a palette knife over sturdy wire before it hardened. Although this was not the most perfect material for sculpture, Milky Way still stands strong sixty-six years after it was created. Lassaw had a life long interest in all sciences and astronomy, and he used titles with cosmological references because he wanted viewers to experience the work directly without the conceptual baggage a recognizable name would have.
Plastic-metal compound - Denise Lassaw Collection
Kwannon (1952)
Artwork description & Analysis: In 1951, after making his first sale, Lassaw was at last able to buy oxyacetylene welding equipment to create sculptures in metal. This work, which followed the morphology of his first 18 welded sculptures was created by first bending and shaping galvanized wire and then fusing molten bronze in layers to build up thickness and strength. The title, Kwannon is the Japanese name for the Buddhist Goddess of mercy and compassion.
Welded bronze and nickel-silver - Museum of Modern Art, New York
Counterpoint Castle (1957)
Artwork description & Analysis: Lassaw continued to expand his explorations and variety of space textures using copper tube shapes which he made and covered with bronze, with the thin wire shapes. Lassaw used various metals for their colors but in Counterpoint Castle he added the use of acids to turn some areas of the sculpture blue.
Bronze and copper - Denise Lassaw Collection
Banquet (1961)
Artwork description & Analysis: Banquet exemplifies Lassaw's use of a technique he developed in which molten metal is built up by fusing globs of metal together, similar to the accretion of stalagmites. The work grows spontaneously, as Lassaw has written, "The work is a 'happening' somewhat independent of my conscious will. The work uses the artist to get itself born." Some people think sculptures like Banquet look like coral, however that was not Lassaw's intention. The morphology of Banquet and the morphology of coral, like other crystalline structures found in nature may appear similar.
Bronze, bronze alloys, and steel - Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C.
Vortex F (1979)
Artwork description & Analysis: In addition to the sculptural works for which he is primarily known, Lassaw also produced many drawings, lithographs and works on canvas and paper, much of which demonstrated a spatial interest similar to that of his three-dimensional works. The forms created by empty space in Vortex F are as important, if not more important, than the lines themselves. Here, as in many of his works, Lassaw combined geometric and biomorphic shapes, drawing the viewer's eye into the maze-like composition.

City Square (1948)
Artist: Alberto Giacometti
Artwork description & Analysis: The multi-figured City Square, while not Giacometti's first foray into the waif-like figures for which he is best known, is a stunning exercise in creating an impression of spacious landscape. Treading amidst an empty space, the figures - what Sartre called "moving outlines" - seem to rise out of nothing. In a 1960 review for The Nation, Fairfield Porter observed, "Giacometti's concern is to place the relationship of man and landscape with the ground. And he further considers man and everything else as having a dual relationship to the environment as a link between the earth and infinity." By this time Giacometti was well acquainted with Existentialism, and City Square could be interpreted along its lines, depicting as it does mankind as a mere shadow of itself, existing half-way between being and nothingness.
Painted bronze - Museum of Modern Art, New York
Artwork Images
Devil Fish (1937)
Artist: Alexander Calder
Artwork description & Analysis: Counterpoint to his mobiles, Calder created many stabiles, composed of intersecting shaped planes of bolted sheet metal, often painted a single color. Devil Fish was the first larger-scale stabile Calder made. By forming combinations of curved biomorphic shapes, Calder creates a swirling sense of motion, even in a static sculpture such as this. Later stabiles combined both organic and geometric forms.
Sheet metal, bolts and paint - Calder Foundation, New York, New York
Composition A 19 (1927)
Artist: László Moholy-Nagy
Artwork description & Analysis: Moholy-Nagy's first abstract paintings featured opaque geometric shapes reminiscent of Kazimir Malevich's Suprematist paintings, yet Composition A 19 shows him developing beyond that style into new interests in light and the transparency of forms. The cross motif that appeared in his earlier paintings is here enlarged and doubled, the red and black crossbeams overlapping each other with varying levels of translucency.

This is what you call a growth spurt. Born on the Fourth of July holiday in 2004, Red, White & Boom has ballooned from one to two to three days.
Its name hasn't changed after 12 years, but almost everything else about Red, White and Boom has.
Instead of happening on the Fourth, the annual WBUL-FM 98.1-sponsored country music summit is on Labor Day weekend. Instead of its inaugural single-evening format and eventual two-day maturation, the festival will run three nights. Most of all, in lieu of a roster devoted exclusively to acts either on a hopeful rise or a graceful descent in their careers, the festival comes to us this year with three mega-popular headline artists: Eric Church, Jason Aldean and Florida Georgia Line. It's now Lexington's biggest music festival. That's enough to give Red, White and Boom some renewed thunder.
Red, White and Boom is, in a lot of ways, my baby. I love the fact that we're able to bring something like this to Lexington and Central Kentucky.

"When we saw these acts were available, it was like, 'OK, let's try it,'" said Michael Jordan, regional senior vice president of iHeartMedia and one of the principal organizers of Red, White and Boom. "We don't know what the market will support until we try it. As we went through this process, we've learned a lot about the market. We've learned what it wants and we've had to adjust the business plan as we went. As any music festival does, we're trying to make sure everyone has a good time and that everything is safe. But at the same time, it is a business."
Part of staging a festival with popular and bankable artists means a rise in costs. So with the growth of the event came a leap in ticket prices. Initially a free show (especially during its pre-Red, White and Boom years at the Cox Street parking lot for the Fourth) and then a mini-festival with a minimal admission, Red, White and Boom was introduced this year with a full three-day ticket price of $179 when sales began last winter. Single-day tickets at $64.50 didn't go on sale until June.
Looking back, we could have probably put single-day tickets on sale a little earlier, because I think the three-day ticket thing was a little bit of a sticker shock for folks.
Michael Jordan, Red, White & Boom principal organizer
"We've had some people upset about the ticket prices," Jordan said. "Looking back, we could have probably put single-day tickets on sale a little earlier, because I think the three-day ticket thing was a little bit of a sticker shock for folks. But if you take a look at a lot of the shows that come into Rupp Arena and divide the ticket price by three days, you're equaling the same amount of money. But that was something we had to adjust to. It's a learning process."
For Jordan, though, the success of Red, White and Boom is quite personal:P He has been involved with its production since the event was overhauled and renamed in 2013.
"Red, White and Boom is, in a lot of ways, my baby. I love the fact that we're able to bring something like this to Lexington and Central Kentucky. It takes many people to pull this thing off, so it's bittersweet every year when it comes to an end. There is a lot of work, a lot of sleepless nights and a lot of long days. But when it comes to an end, there is a moment of sadness. Then you start planning for next year."

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is a discretionary determination to defer removal action of an individual, via an act of prosecutorial discretion. If granted, it will allow individuals brought to the United States as young children, through no fault of their own, the chance to work, study, and live in the U.S. without fear of deportation. The deferred action program is intended to help streamline enforcement of federal immigration laws by focusing limited immigration enforcement resources on removing undocumented immigrants who have been convicted of serious crimes, or who are considered to be a risk to national security.
An individual who has been granted deferred action is eligible to receive an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) in two year increments for the period of deferred action. At the expiration of the two year period, the grant of deferred action can be renewed, pending a review of the individual case.
You are eligible to request deferred action if you:
- Were under the age of 31, as of June 15, 2012;
- Came to the United States before reaching your 16th birthday;
- Are at least 15 years of age at the time of filing;
- Up until the present time, have continuously resided in the United States since June 15, 2007, other than for brief innocent departures;
- Were physically present in the United States on June 15, 2012, as well as at the time you make your deferred action request with USCIS;
- Entered without inspection before June 15, 2012, or your lawful immigration status expired as of June 15, 2012;
- Are currently in school, have graduated or obtained a certificate of completion from high school, have obtained a general education development (GED) certificate, or are an honorably discharged veteran of the Coast Guard or Armed Forces of the United States; and
- Have not been convicted of a felony, significant misdemeanor such as a single DUI, three or more other misdemeanors, and do not otherwise pose a threat to national security or public safety.
At the Bustos Law Firm PC, we are experienced in the deferred action process. From preparing the application, to providing supporting documentation and responding to Requests for Evidence, we will work with you to properly complete and file your application until you have your final approval from USC

I want to gift my daughter a recording microphone . Her first love is dancing but recently she has turned her interest into singing. She recently participated in a singing contest at school and although she was not able to get the championship, she was happy she joined the event .
Our challenge now is how to find the best microphone that suits our budget. As we roamed around music stores in the city, I realized that there are a huge variety of microphones available for the home studio owner. What made the quests more challenging is that they fit all budgets, offer many unique sounds, and work for different applications. I was confused and overwhelmed looking for the right mics for our studio until I found the excellent recording mics at Musicians Friend. I'll be ordering the item soon and wished it could be delivered before her birthday two months from now.

Achrome Spaced Out – Marl Grey
The 30th anniversary of the second Summer of love sees us harking back to a time when we stopped punching each others heads in on the football terraces and started hugging anyone we could get near enough to give a back rub. Both here in Blighty and on the white isle of Ibiza, Pony tails, bright baggy clobber and birds smelling of strawberry body oil became the norm for the cooler cats. While Kevin and Sharon were left shuffling to 'The Only Way Is Up' down the Ritzy, we were embracing the birth of a fantastic movement which has gone on to become a rock solid genre today. Our first instalment of our 'on one since 88' range is the Balearic's collection inspired by the clubber hang outs that went on to write themselves into house music history on said Mediterranean rock.

Ways that you can ruin your Car Paint Without Knowing it. | Auto Body Repair NYC | Auto Collision Repair NYC
The Source: Wildfires
The Problem: When wet, ash forms an alkali that can ruin your car"s finish.
The Solution: Keep your car covered, use a car duster for white ash, wash thoroughly if it"s soot.
These days it seems like every state is burdened with wildfires. The ash gets everywhere, and your car"s finish is no exception. While your instinct may be to hit the windshield washers, or just hose down the whole car, water mixed with ash can create powerful alkalis, which will ruin your paint. White ash can be removed with a car duster, or just by driving away and letting it blow off. Black ash can scratch your paint, even when you use a duster, so you"ll need to wash it off using a car wash solution, and dry thoroughly. Once the fires are out, get your car professionally washed, and put on a new coat of wax.
The Source: Tree sap
The Problem: Ancient peoples used tree sap as glue for a good reason.
The Solution: Bug and tar remover, mineral spirits, clay bar treatment
Just wiping sap off when it"s still gooey only smears it around a larger area. Instead, get a bottle of bug and tar remover from your local car parts store, and use it as directed. If the sap dries, mineral spirits can dissolve it, and remaining residue will come off with a clay bar treatment. Just be sure to wax the car after you"re done.
The Source: The gas pump
The Solution: Don"t top off, and clean up accidental dripsTimes are tough, but "topping off" your gas tank and accidentally letting it overflow is a surefire way to damage your car"s paint. If left alone, gasoline will leave a stain on your car"s finish that"s nearly impossible to get off. If you do happen to spill gas by accident, the best solution is to grab a bottle of instant detailer and a good, clean microfiber cloth and clean up the gasoline before it does any harm.
The Source: Fingertips and mischief
The Solution: Keep your car clean.We"ve all seen "wash me" written on a car"s finish, but the well-intentioned tagger actually just made things worse. Dirt acts like sandpaper when it"s dragged across paint, and it can make the marks last long after the dirt is gone.Get yourself a long-handled duster and wipe down your car every day to prevent accidental sanding. If it"s too late, most small scratches come out with a polish or scratch remover. Just always be sure to clean the car well before waxing or polishing.
The Source: Your morning coffee
The Solution: Wash it off immediatelyDriving off with your coffee cup or soda bottle on your roof isn"t just a day-ruiner, it can ruin your paint. Many beverages are acidic, and since any acid can hurt your car"s finish, you"ll want to get it washed off as soon as you can. Letting it sit will only casino online give it more time to do damage, and letting it dry will only make it harder to get off later. If it"s a soda, or if you take a lot of sugar in your coffee, then you"re going to be dealing with a sticky residue in addition to corrosive chemicals. If you can"t hit a car wash, then break out your bottle of quick detailer and your microfiber cloth and wipe it up.
The Source: Dirt on your car-wash tools
The Solution: Keep an extra mitt handy.Washing your own car can be fun, but a common mistake can cause more damage than you think: dropping your sponge. Even the finest, most expensive microfiber wash mitt on the market can be ruined if it touches the ground. The bits of grit and sand it inevitably picks up can"t be entirely washed off, and you"ll have swirl marks and other scratches before you know it. The solution is to never drop anything. But if you're like us, it'd be best to keep a spare washing mitt or two on hand to avoid the resulting expenses from car detailing or repainting.
The Source: Automatic sprinklers
The Solution: Stay away from sprinklers whenever possibleThat primo parking spot right next to the planter may look good, but if it has automatic sprinklers, you could be in for trouble. You wouldn"t think that plain water would be such a problem, but the minerals left behind bond to your car"s paint, making them very difficult to remove. Your best bet is to avoid parking where sprinklers can do their damage, but that"s not always possible. If you do get water spots, it"s best to take it to a professional detailer.
The Source: Avian digestion
The Solution: Wash it off immediatelyBird poop isn"t just unsightly. It"s also acidic. Just look at the number of ruined marble statues in pigeon-infested cities and you"ll see what we mean. Not only that, but birds eat seeds and bits of gravel that can scratch your paint.The solution is to wash bird droppings off as soon as you see them. Use a bottle of quick detail and a soft microfiber cloth to wipe it up. Be sure to use a lifting action, since you don"t want to grind any grit onto your paint.
The Source: Bugs
The Problem: Bug guts are acidic.
The Solution: Get to the car wash
You"re heading home from a road trip when suddenly the eighth plague of Egypt strikes, with thousands of bugs splattering your windshield. But just cleaning the windshield isn"t enough. Bugs are surprisingly acidic, and if you do hit a swarm, don"t let the bugs get the last laugh as their remains slowly etch your paint. Wash your car as soon as you can with a good car wash solution, and for the more stubborn guts, use a bug and tar remover.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I had to read for school english class, and it was just well ... ENTIRELY INAPPROPRIATE. I think I found Kathy and the way she saw herself and reacted to things the most disturbing, and for different reasons at different times, I spent most of the book wanting to punch her in the face. Although not literally, because Carey Mulligan is nice- but I think you get what I mean. Things that I consider disturbing are Room, a book about someone who was abducted, and Brave New World. Room seemed like an adult, rather weirder and more graphic version on The Lovely Bones, so I found it really kind of horrible. I rather like The Lovely Bones though, but it doesn't really focus on the graphic element. With Brave New World ...Lishwa said:Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro. I can't really describe it without spoiling the entire plot of the book. It starts out innocently enough, and then there's a twist pretty early on... It's just so disturbing and haunting. It's a beautiful book, but tragic. I am more than a little emotionally scarred after reading it.
Are you talking about Tiger Tiger by Margaux Fragoso, because I agree.. That book was extremely disturbing.lovelikeangels said:it wasn't THAT disturbing, but Snakes and Earrings by Hitomi Kaneharai don't really read disturbing books though?ETA: i don't remember the title of this book, but my...senior year of high school i believe, while i was working in the library and had my hands on ALL TEH NEW GOODIEZ, i remember i read this book that you could consider disturbing: it was about this girl who got abducted by a child molester while she was at the zoo or something and she wasn't very far from where she had lived, but he threatened her the whole time that if she tried running away, he'd kill her family and that they didn't love her anymore and they had replaced her with another child. and i also specifically remember he would send her to get waxed in her nether regions when she hit puberty because he was disgusted that she was developing cause he liked them extra fresh. anyway, in the end the guy ends up getting killed by i don't remember who but it was in a park and i remember something about a police officer - i think he tried to help her. IT WAS REALLY GOOD. if anyone knows what the hell i'm talking about, let me know cause i'd like to read that book again.
Brave New World isn't particularly oppressive though. If you were prepared to abandon most sense of moral purpose, then the world depicted is probably all right.Nethernil said:It has to be 1984 or A Brave New World, just for the sheer oppressiveness of the worlds they are set in. And that, even now, it's possible to see what they got right. It's maybe not disturbing, but they were both deeply unsettling.

I would like to introduce to you, yzzil.
"When I found the Lupus Message Board I was in a very bad way physically and mentally.
I had a diagnosis of SLE for about 8 years before I came across this forum, my health was good and I had no idea how ill I could become.
I had a really bad lupus flare in 2007 to 2009, during this flare I found it very difficult to get the treatment I needed, partly because I was not specific enough on my symptoms and how they were effecting me and partly due to the fact that getting appointments with the medical profession was very difficult and when I did get the appointment the follow up appointments were to far apart.
The members of the LUpus Message Board are very caring and supportive. They also pointed me in the right direction to seek help for my Lupus. This helped me to get appropriate treatment from the medical profession.
Physical health problems were not my only problem, I had developed severe depression/anxiety due to my dealings with the medical professions and the fact that when I became very ill it had a massive impact on my family, this created a whole new set of problems for me to deal with.
The LUpus Message Board is not like other forums, the forum is private and so when we talk about what we are dealing with, you know that it will not be seen by anyone apart from the members. Or if you don't want other members to see personal information you can private message Ros direct.
With this knowledge I found it easier to talk about how I was feeling with my emotions and the side effects this was having on my family. Ros and this forum is very special as Ros has trained in psychological support and is prepared to give up her time to help other sufferers, she has helped me to work through some really big issues I have and in the process this has helped me understand myself.
My family and I now have a better understanding of my lupus and its emotional effects, this has led to a relaxed supportive family atmosphere rather than everyone at war with each other.
My depression and anxiety is now at a manageable level and this is down to Ros and all the other members of this forum. Thank you."

Back in Gingham Action/
I'm back! It's been a few weeks, the longest I've gone without sharing an outfit with all of you loyal readers. I took some time off for myself this summer which was much needed. I took a vacation overseas to Paris and toured Spain for a few weeks and it was amazing! Needless to say, I needed an extra week to recover. Jet lag hit me like a ton of bricks and all I could do was concentrate on getting through the week at work. Taking a break felt good but I missed sharing my favorite outfits with you all!
I'm slowly getting into the gingham trend but it does have to be the perfect piece. When I saw this top, the first thing I noticed were the fun sleeves. I've been all about the sleeves this year, and these are so light weight and fluffy. I'll admit, sleeves in Texas in August is a terrible decision, and I soon found that out, after about 10 minutes. But who cares, I looked so cute right?
My new favorite high waisted denim is right here. I have the hardest time finding denim that fits me well, and this year TopShop has been the winner. What saves me is that they carry petite sizes so the length of shorts are normal but they also fit my curvy frame. I am tempted to buy these in multiple colors! I paired this look with a pair of simple white mules, which I've only worn twice because I'm so paranoid about getting them dirty!

Christian Historian John Fea is candid about the ambitions of his book. He wants "to blend the theoretical and the practical in jargon-free, easily accessible prose" in order to "win some converts" to the pursuit of the study of history. Why Study History is therefore a timely book. Enrollments in departments of history, and in other disciplines in the humanities, are in steep decline across North America. Students are desert . . .

My younger nephew, Gabriel, died last night.
So, I visited with the in-laws a bit today. Our older nephew, Michael (he's three), was sitting on Jesse's lap drawing pictures and practicing spelling "elephant". Later, he went to sit on grandpa's lap, and look at pictures. He wanted to see pictures of him and his baby brother, Gabriel, so they showed him some. Then he said it was the wrong one.
"No! The one where I try to pick him up and there's blood."
"No one took a picture of that," said Jesse.
Last night, right after their bath, Gabriel (14 months) stood up in the tub. He slipped. He fell. He hit his head. He still had a strong pulse when the paramedics came, but he didn't have one when he got to the hospital. He died.
We don't know what Michael does, or doesn't, understand about this. He's pretty young, but he's unusually advanced for his age. But here is a human coming to grips with death. He's trying to understand what he saw, what happened. It's a bit earlier than we like to think of kids dealing with this, but I'm told recent research suggests kids are a lot readier, a lot sooner, than conventional wisdom has suggested. For Michael's sake, I hope so.
I will say this. He's not running away. He's trying to come to terms with the fact that something happened. He's looking at it. He's coming to terms with it. In a culture that prides itself on "shielding" children from death (and from a lot of life, too), at least one boy has made the decision that he's gonna look the world in the eye. Brave kid. I know a lot of adults who are not yet ready to face death. I'm not really ready for the concept either, although I've at least gotten used to the fact that I really don't know what to make of it.

text: Hello All, I have a few questions about the 12-Volt plugs in the Model X. I believe the 12-Volt plug in the trunk of the Model X is powered by the main battery but I want to double check. Does anyone know if it is for sure? Can both 12-volt plugs (Trunk & cigarette lighter) be used at the same time without issue? Can the 12-volt plug be used for long periods of time without issue? Hours and hours Thanks in Advance

Halong Bay Cruise ship Bhaya was inspired by the majestic luxury of the ships used by Vietnam's Imperial Emporers. To ease themselves of the lofty worries of imperial reign and the constant plotting and counter-plotting of the imperial court, Vietnam's Emporers would seek the isolated safety and seclusion of their imperial vessels. Halong Bay has always been a favorite destination.

The Human Pituitary Hormones Trust Account has been established within the Commonwealth Public Account in accordance with Section 62A of the Audit Act. A total of $5m has been placed within a Group 3 Trust Account by the Department of Finance as part of Appropriation Bill 1, item 28920014.
To provide funding for grants and other payments for: the provision of ongoing counselling and support services for people treated with human pituitary hormones and their families; and medical and other care costs in the event of a person contracting Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) as a result of human pituitary hormone treatment in Australia.
All payments made from the Trust must be authorised by the delegate of the Minister for Health and Family Services, currently the Head of the National Centre for Disease Control.
The Human Pituitary Hormones Trust Account provides for medical, hospital, childcare, livein home care, community nursing and other care in the event of another human pituitary hormone recipient contracting Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD). Funeral charges and associated costs may also be met from this provision of the Trust.
Access to financial assistance from the medical and other care component of the Trust will depend upon the provision of documented medical evidence provided by a neurologist to support the claim that a person who received human pituitary derived hormones in Australia has been clinically diagnosed as suffering from CJD. The neurologist's report will be referred to an independent panel approved by the Department of Health and Family Services for a second opinion and confirmation. (of the diagnosis by the neurologists)
Once confirmation is given that CJD is the most probable diagnosis, or if CJD is confirmed at autopsy, payments will be back dated to the date of the initial onset of the illness as determined by independent medical experts in this field.
A claim for assistance under this section of the Trust would be satisfactorily supported by:
(i) treatment records held on departmental files; or written advice from the original treating doctor that the person did receive this treatment based on the doctor's clinical records or other documentary evidence establishing that the treatment was administered;
written advice from a doctor involved with the research use of the hormones that the person received hPG or hGH treatment under the research provision of the National Health Act 1953 based on the treating doctor's clinical records; and
(ii) a neurologist's report and other supporting medical opinion that the person is assessed as exhibiting the symptoms of CJD and is in his/her opinion suffering from CJD; and
(iii) assessment and confirmation of the referring neurologist's report by the registered neurologist who is currently a member of the Scientific Research Subcommittee of the National Pituitary Hormones Advisory Council or a nominee in his/her absence. If that person is not part of the Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Case Registry, the report shall be further confirmed by a member of the Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Case Registry; and
(iv) copies of invoices and medical bills and statement of claims made through Medicare and/or private health insurance.
Assistance will be offered to:
if appropriate, the hormone recipient; or next of kin or other nominated person if the recipient is in the advanced stages of CJD or otherwise incapacitated and meets the conditions outlined under eligibility. Claims/invoices from the approved recipient, next of kin or nominated person, hospital, institution or service provider will be processed: to reimburse the claimant for `out of pocket' medical/other expenses once CJD is diagnosed as the most likely cause of the illness; to cover the cost of treatment/care in public or private hospitals/institutions; for home/child care and other care costs; and for costs associated with funeral arrangements.
All such claims must be accompanied with supporting documentation, either a receipt if the claimant has already paid the account or an account from the hospital/institution or organisation.
The claimant will be reimbursed for the full amount charged by the hospital/institution. The claimant will be reimbursed for costs associated with home nursing, doctor's visits and home maintenance (cleaning, lawn mowing etc.). The claimant will be reimbursed for the full amount of full or part-time child care.
If the claimant is eligible to apply for other Commonwealth benefits such as child care relief payments then the Trust will only allow payment of the difference between the benefits entitled and the actual cost of the service.
Advance payments will only be approved under exceptional circumstances. Such exceptional circumstances would be or similar to the situation where an institution or organisation will not provide a service unless prior payment has been arranged, and again only after the independent panel opinion is that CJD is the most likely cause of the illness.
Persons provided with assistance from the Trust may still pursue claims through the Courts if they so choose. However, the Commonwealth will reduce any payment for which it may become liable by an amount equal to the amounts paid or an amount equivalent to the value of either goods or services provided under the Trust where this would prevent the receipt of payment twice for the same service.
Payment of damages awarded by a Court (other than amounts "off set" as described above) will be paid from the Department's Compensation and Legal appropriation.

Harry Styles Teases That He Might Be Bisexual Yet Again!
Harry Styles caused quite a stir last week when he teased that he might be bisexual when saying that being female is "not that important" when looking for a lover.
The 20-year-old One Direction singer is now backing up that statement with another ambiguous remark about his sexuality.
Harry's groupmate Louis Tomlinson told a The Sun on Sunday reporter that "Every new trip we say that Niall's slept with a different celebrity. Who should it be this time?"
When the interviewer suggested that the next person could be a man, Harry said, "Hey, don't knock it 'til you try it."

Created during the last decades of the 20th century, by Barry Cohen, a visionary American entrepreneur, Luminox is currently, a widely appreciated watchmaking powerhouse, internationally known for the impeccable quality, distinctive sporty design and impressive functionality, of its horological products.
The story of the brand, which once again, proves that necessity, is the mother of invention started with a visionary man, who realized, that for succeeding in the elitist world of today fine watchmaking industry, innovation is the key of success. He acknowledged that there are individuals who need watches, which provide long-lasting, powerful luminosity, like professional military, divers or people who suffer from eyesight decay, and conceived the ideal product to satisfy their needs.
He implemented a revolutionary, Swiss-made, illumination system, which turned Luminox into the main supplier of the US Navy SEALs, and of other US important military organizations, but it also which proved to be a remarkable public success.
Over the years, the brand experienced a privileged partnership with the exhilarating world of military aviation, and released countless sophisticated models, especially created to serve in the line of duty with US Air Force pilots. Inspired by the silhouette of the F-117 Nighthawk Jet, the brand brought another remarkable addition to its emblematic Luminox Air Watch Collection- the new Luminox Air F-117 Nighthawk 6400 Series, a powerful line, which emanates strength and masculinity.
The models feature robust black PVD-coated stainless steel cases, measuring 45 mm in diameter, which incorporate a sporty looking fluted bezel, screw on winding crown, equipped with crown guards, and a steel screw-down case-back, which provides a good resistance of 200-meters beneath the sea's surface, making the models the perfect choice for an impassionate diver.
As far as the dials are concerned, the models reveal a sporty minimalist design, nicely completed with Arabic numeral hour markers, and luminescent indices, along with hours and minutes hands, which confer an eye-pleasing intense green mint colored luminescence; the 12 o'clock position is marked by an additional dot, which confers a distinctive orange light.
At the heart of the distinctive models of the Luminox Air F-117 Nighthawk 6400 Series beat high-quality quartz movements, which ensure central hours, minutes and seconds functions as well as a small date function located at 3 o'clock position.
In addition, we have to mention that the models of the series accommodate the revolutionary Luminox Night Vision Tubes guaranteed to provide up to 25 years of reliable intense luminescence; they embrace the wrist with sporty black rubber straps, and have an approximate price tag of $700.00.

STRENGTHS – Barrow upon Soar fulfils the requirement of a 'Service Centre' and retains a good community identity, it has an excellent 'Community Association' and a committed and hard working Parish Council. Its proximity to the river Soar provides recreational facilities and makes it an attractive place to live. It has both junior and high schools, is in close proximity to the A6 and has good access to the A60 and A46. It has both bus and rail links to neighbouring villages, Loughborough and the cities of Leicester and Nottingham. It has good local roads to the Wolds villages, Hoton, Seagrave and Sileby and many narrow picturesque streets with historic buildings within the designated 'conservation area'. Barrow is fortunate to have a relatively low crime rate. Barrow's Churches, Holy Trinity, Methodist and Baptist are welcoming and a very active part of our community. The Bishop Beveridge Club caters for all residents over the age of sixty years.
Church halls, Bishop Beveridge, the Sports Hall and Community Centre based at Humphrey Perkins High School offer room hire to the community and wider area.
Businesses in Barrow are supported by an active local Business Forum.
Barrow also enjoys the following facilities:
Selection of retail outlets mainly situated along the High Street corridor which include a small supermarket, a newsagents, a butchers, a florist, an upholsterer, a gents barber, several hairdressing and beauty salons and two craft/gift/furniture shops, Health Centre, Dentist, Optician, Chiropodist, Pharmacy, Post Office, Library, Bank, 2 public car parks (Old Station 33 spaces/North Street 8 spaces)
All of the above facilities serve the following neighbouring villages:
The Wolds villages; Walton, Burton, Prestwold, Wymeswold Hoton, Cotes, Seagrave and to a lesser degree Quorn and Sileby
WEAKNESSES – Barrow has recently taken in a substantial development of 360 homes, not yet complete and in addition numerous smaller sites creating an additional 200+ homes, some recently completed and others under construction. The full impact of ongoing development is therefore not yet evident.
Traffic trends are chaotic. Barrow is a main trunk corridor along the east of the Soar and for access to and from A6 and A60. Links to the A6 are seriously affected due to difficulties at the South Street/Bridge Street junction and by the traffic controlled bridge at Bridge Street exacerbated when Slash Lane is in flood, which is a regular occurrence, causing delays affecting junctions at Cotes Road, Grove Lane, South Street and beyond.
Its narrow picturesque streets are hampered by on street parking which restricts access to emergency services. This is further exacerbated at areas adjacent to both schools at dropping off and picking up times.
There are difficult junctions between South Street/Melton Road and South Street/Grove Lane both of which are a part of the bus route through the village.
There is no parking provision at the railway station only a pick up/drop off point. Streets in this area are already over subscribed with regard to on street parking. The level of rail service is limited with only a single train to Leicester and one to Loughborough/Nottingham during a typical weekday morning peak. The service does not support shop or shift workers and seriously restricts leisure opportunities. Local evidence would suggest that current services are at best unreliable and also overcrowded at peak times, making rail an unattractive alternative mode of travel. The station is accessible only to the very fittest residents due to its stepped access.
The village is served by two bus services one of which provides two buses into Leicester (journey time of 45minutes) during a typical peak period weekday morning. Neither service supports shop or shift workers and again seriously restricts leisure opportunities.
There are no designated cycle routes within the village. Cycle access is dangerous in places.
Existing public car park facilities are inadequate.
Barrow's traditional employment base has all but gone and its working population commutes out of the village. Shopping outlets have reduced greatly and those existing include a number of takeaway outlets which are closed during the day. Those businesses still in existence rely to some extent on new technology and existing broadband speeds are inadequate. Young families simply move away be it for reasons of securing suitable employment or suitable affordable housing.
Both of the schools in the village are currently at capacity. Hall Orchard school is land locked and is located near old lime mines. There is therefore little or no opportunity for expansion.
The Health Centre is land locked and has no direct road access; development of this site is limited. Evidence would suggest basic health care is failing. The doctors are over subscribed and patients queue outside early in the morning in all weathers in order to secure an appointment. Our pharmacy is also overstretched and its service to the community is deteriorating. Repeat prescriptions now take seven working days.
Barrow currently has no community focal point/facility Lack of available land for allotment purposes.
There are two sites which residents have access to, both of which are privately managed and both are heavily over subscribed
OPPORTUNITIES – There is potential to refine and enhance Barrow as a service centre within the constraints of limiting its audience base.
To provide a community focal point/facility (e.g. village hall).
To reverse the trend of employment leaving the village.
Improved internet speeds.
Provision of a new doctors surgery on the Wolds side of the village.
Improved signage to existing public car parks and provision of additional spaces, (derelict land at the Three Crowns could provide additional spaces at the North Street car park)
Provision of improvements to signage to indicate alternative routes to the A6 avoiding Bridge Street. Strengthening of the Bridge at Bridge Street, creation of a footbridge alongside the bridge and introduction of two way traffic.
Upgrade to the Essex bridge and to Slash Lane, to alleviate flooding, thus providing access to the A6 at all times and the matter of flooding in other areas addressed.
Creation of a car park/drop off area at land at Hall Orchard school to alleviate congestion in this area.
Provision of suitable housing for our aging residents.
To provide allotments/land gifted to the Parish Council to facilitate provision.
THREATS – Traffic issues in and around Barrow will deteriorate further given the housing infill and additional development in progress.
The impact in respect of schooling and health provision of current and projected developments will have significant negative impact on their infrastructure. It is not in their interest to admit to their difficulties and failings.
Migration of both the younger and older generation through a lack of suitable living accommodation, and with regard to the younger, employment opportunities.
Impact on public transport will affect those commuting to their workplace and for leisure opportunities. Community identity will be adversely affected by any additional substantial development.
Climate change alone is likely to have an adverse effect on existing flooding issues. Our close proximity to the river Soar and existing issues relating to flooding of Fishpool Brook exacerbated by recent development are a very real concern.
Erosion of the surrounding countryside by extensive development and loss of green areas to infill development clearly has a detrimental effect on biodiversity.
Barrow has many specific sites of archaeological interest which are at risk.
