the most timelessly beautiful woman you'll ever meet. Malia's are energetic, positive, thoughtful, sexy, caring, and loving people. They make excellent partners too. Sensitive and passionate. Make very loyal friends. Very opinionated and stubborn but is the nicest person you will ever meet. typically blonde haired, amazing eyes, colorful and unique. Almost too pretty to describe. Very good taste in music, in some cases a very talented guitarist. Best legs you'll see. Toned and tight. If you've found a malia, word of advice: don't let her go, you'll never find any other girl as amazing ever again!
someone who is very pretty, has lots of friends, fierce, takes good pictures, good kisser, friendly, nice, loves life.
I just took the first one off the site
But booooyyyy does this make me sound pretty obnoxious
1. Daniel 9585 up, 2498 down
This is a difficult name to define because it defies many boundaries of human perception, let alone various languages. One of the closest translations that experts give is God or many other variations of that general idea.
Other definitions are thought to be:
The Great Spirit
Chuck Norris
Despite the fact that various names have been pinned to Daniel, its seems that all of the above examples (including that of God)cannot even withstand the magnitude of Daniel.
The reason this name continues to elude even the brightest of human minds is that the idea of Daniel cannot possibly exist in a dimensional state. Daniel is so powerful, it defies all laws of this or any other universe. Recent studies have shown that people who have attempted to comprehend this name have either disappeared, died spontaneously, or driven themselves into a pertinent state of insanity and/or catatonia. One common belief is that Daniel is possibly the grounds on which everything and nothing is based. It seems to surpass the idea of infinity. Quantum physicists report that this Daniel is Everything and Nothing. It or He is said to have unexplainable connections with the String and Superstring Theories as Daniel resonates within every single layer of the multi-dimensional complex and yet still exists beyond that point which is where scientists have lost the trail. Various theologists and spiritual leaders believe that Daniel is one who is, as they say, "The Answer". All attempts to understand this idea of Daniel have failed.
Daniel. Nothing else can describe him.
pft i'm not that obnoxious...or great for that matter lol
I have two first names so what do you know they're both included in the dictionary apparently my name's common
the first definition
Literally means Joy!
Joy is an incredible woman of character, strength and beauty!
She is compassionate and loving, always giving of herself to others. She enjoys deep conversation and has strong spirituality. Genuine, honest and fiercely loyal, Joy is one of the best people to have as a friend!
Joy is awesome! Everyone who knows her LOVES her!
Thanks for taking interest in me and being so faithful in helping me!
Oh, thats so Joy!
The most amazing girl you could meet or be with. You will not be able to stop yourself from falling deep in love with her.
My girl is so amazing she has got to be a Camille.
Because of that, I now love the creator of urbandictionary even if half of the meaning of names here are almost the same except for word choice.!
I'm sad to say goodbye to august! Goodbye to holidays!!!
1. adam
The first Man to ever get laid.
Adam and Eve had wild sex all night long.
2. Adam
A man who sits at home on a computer and reads definitions about his own name. Wondering if some of these may be written by people who actually know him. He is in-fact Truthful somewhat good looking but still wonders why he is single. Secretly a big nerd but the most caring man when it comes to ones he loves or Girlfriends he once loved.
No. 2 is scarily accurate o_o
A Megan is always awesome, period. If you haven't met three or more Megans by the time you're 15 you don't live in America. A Megan has a blonde streak, whether she wears it or not. She has a way of brightening your bad days. A Megan knows how to party like a rockstar. Megans hold pride in the fact that thier name is spelled correctly, without any "h"s, one "e", and one "a" in order. A Megan is always in the shadow of Megan Fox, so don't rub it in.
No one is complete without a Megan as a bff.

Okay, the amazing (despite the depression) top three details are just hilarious.
1.The most amazing person in the entire universe. Everything about him is perfect! He's charming, handsome, intelligent, strong, romantic, funny...everything you want in a guy. It's impossible not to fall in love with him! Once you lay eyes on him, you will know from that very moment that you will never stop loving him.
did you see eric...damn that bitch is fine!
2. A term used to describe a mentally retarded cat that has the ability to fly by moving its tail in a circular motion. Once in the air, erics are known to land ontop of statues to catch and eat birds. Once they get the taste of blood, they turn into a form of vampire and attack fat people.
Omg! dude last night I saw an eric fly by!!
3. A man with a really big penis
Eric has a big penis.
Don't be deceived by the green dot!
Kyla: A ridiculously attractive young woman, however, Kylas tend to be extremely humble. Usually very nice, but Kylas don't take bull shit. Comes off very innocent, but in reality, love to party and have a good time.
Behind my smile is everything you will never understand.
A strong name for a strong woman
A Sandra, especially one born under the star (sun) sign of Aries tends to be intelligent, witty, extremely open, honest & passionate and will do whatever it takes to uphold her morals. While these are extremely admirable traits, they also mean that they should never be crossed. Hope you are paying attention, you have been warned!! On the flipside, if you do the right thing (and why wouldn't you?) a Sandra will go out of her way to make your life beautiful. While fiercely independent, a Sandra has both a strong sense of community and family and will do whatever it takes (regardless of personal cost) to defend and protect those that she cares about. Do yourself a favour – find a Sandra; stocks are limited and they are (rightly so) in high demand.
Need a friend?
Look no further than Sandra
A girl who needs no definition. TOO amazing for words.
Damn giiirlll you lookin goood!! You must be a ashley!
As per requested by my brother:
A man who is above all men. He reads the Urban Dictionary definitions and laughs at them. Some are accurate, some are not. Davids exude confidence. Qualities to look for in a David are tallness, excellent brown hair, sweetness, loves high fives, nerdiness, Marvel Comics titles (Spectacular, Amazing, Astonishing, etc.). A David can laugh in the face of danger. A David has his zombie survival plan all worked out and he knows who he's saving. Davids are generally kind to all who encounter them, but can be protective and territorial. Evildoers beware, because there just might be a David right behind you.
David drives 60 miles down the highway. Tim drives 60 miles down the highway going in the opposite direction. They meet and high-five. To keep the universe balanced a hole is torn to the peanut butter dimension and there is an explosion of peanut buttery epicness.

Matt Lauer Suits Up for Visit with 'Dumb and Dumber To' Co-Stars
Today Show host Matt Lauer sat down with "Dumb and Dumber To" stars Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels to dscuss the coming film — the latest installment in the popular series of slapstick misadventures for hapless buddies Lloyd and Harry.
During the visit Carrey and Daniels joked around with Lauer, recalled favorite lines from previous "Dumb" films and even sang their version of "Mockingbird" from the original 1995 movie. Perhaps the most memorable part of the meeting was Lauer's attire. He wore a classic 'Dumb and Dumber'-style suit in powder blue.

Reggie Bush told the Associated Press Wednesday that he "cannot confirm or deny" whether he has met with anyone from the Heisman Trophy Trust regarding his 2005 trophy.
On Tuesday, Yahoo! Sports reported that Bush will be stripped of his Heisman trophy by the end of September.
The Associated Press reported Wednesday that Bush said the matter is "out of my hands." He said his play on the field speaks for itself, and that he "cannot confirm or deny" whether he has met with anyone from the Trust.
Bush, who spoke with reporters Wednesday after practice with the New Orleans Saints, said he hasn't thought about whether he would return the trophy if asked to do so.
"I think at this point it's kind of out of my hands," Bush said. "Whatever you guys report, you have to go with that. But if I'm not mistaken, I think the Heisman Trust people released a statement saying that whatever was said yesterday was inaccurate. So that's where we're at."
The Yahoo! Sports report came as the Heisman Trophy Trust wraps up its investigation into the former USC tailback's case. If Bush is stripped of the trophy, it would mark the first time the Trust retroactively ruled on the eligibility of a past Heisman winner.
A spokesman for the Trust said later Tuesday that members have not made a decision.
"The Heisman Trophy trust has yet to make a decision," trust spokesman Tim Henning told ESPN.
Bush, his mother and stepfather accepted thousands of dollars in cash and free housing while Bush was playing for USC beginning in December 2004, according to an NCAA investigation, the details of which were released in June. Bush and his family were also given an automobile, air travel, hotel lodging, transportation and other benefits, according to the NCAA's 67-page report.
As a result, the program was stripped of all of its wins in which Bush played, beginning in December 2004.
The Trust conducted its own investigation after the NCAA findings were released. From the report by Yahoo! Sports:
Two sources close to the Heisman trust said the body's investigation is coming to a close, and will ultimately concur with the NCAA's determination that Bush was ineligible during his Heisman-winning season in 2005. Because of that independent conclusion, sources said the trust will relieve Bush of the award and leave the honor for that season vacant. The sources said Bush met with Heisman representatives last month at the New York law offices of Emmet, Marvin & Martin. The sources would not reveal details of that meeting.
...Two factors outweighed all others, sources said: The Heisman ballot necessitates candidates be in compliance with NCAA bylaws and concern over the Heisman's reputation in the wake of the NCAA findings against Bush.
Former Texas quarterback Vince Young finished a convincing second in the voting that season.
That same year, the Longhorns and Trojans met in the National Championship game. A game Texas won 41-38 after Young bolted for the end zone in the games final seconds and created fits for the USC defense throughout the night.
Texas coach Mack Brown made a good case for his former quarterback on ESPN on Tuesday, but all analysts aren't so sure simply handing Young the trophy is the right thing to do.
On ESPN Tuesday, Skip Bayless, who thought Young should have had the Heisman initially, thought a better punishment for Bush would be to publicly shame him by forever leaving that year as blank in the Heisman record book.
In a letter announcing the hiring of Pat Haden as USC's new athletic director earlier this year, incoming university President C.L. Max Nikias wrote that he wanted all tributes to Bush and former basketball player O.J. Mayo -- who also figured prominently in the NCAA investigation -- removed from sports facilities at the campus. Nikias wrote that the university would be returning its copy of the trophy.
"The Trojan family honors and respects the USC sporting careers of those persons whose actions did not compromise their athletic program or the opportunities of future USC student-athletes," Nikias wrote. "Accordingly, I have instructed the senior vice president for administration to remove athletic jerseys and murals displayed in recognition of O.J. Mayo and Reggie Bush by mid-August -- before the incoming class of students moves on campus -- from Heritage Hall, the Galen Center and the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum."

Discussion in 'Pro Match Results and Discussion' started by Chanwan, Feb 17, 2013.
I find Raonic strangely appealing to my eyes...
Halt! Hammerzeit!
I think the younger gun will take it ... but TH will continue to give him a fight.
milos breaks... up 4-3 in the 2nd and serving now...
Well that wasnt a whole lot of fun to watch
3peat for Raonic (4th title). There's something about this event he really likes!
milos wins... he deserved it. returned very well and had great movement. decent net play as well. he really is progressing, hopefully he will stay healthy.
some cool points by Haas as well, but it wasn't his day. i hope he can stay on tour for a bit longer.
Behold the Rise of the Milos.
LOL @ Milos' mom trying to clap along.
Was impressed with Raonic's return of serve. He hit a lot of clean return winners.
Good match, definitely deserved the win. Played well. Maybe it's time for Haas to hang up his racket and retire soon? haha, he was looking old tonight.
Looks like Raonic is starting to become a true all-courter. He's got it all now it seems.
He's still not the honey badger-type like Joachim Johansson was. But great to see someone being able to blast away everywhere though.
@Marius_Hancu twitting @milosraonic Congrats! The intelligent, controlled, long game. Power isn't everything. Suffocate the opponents with placement. Yes.
Do you think his ROS and Backhand are actual permanent improvements......he was hitting those shots perfectly in the SF and today?
Another title without being broken for Milos, adding to Chennai 2012.
This time he only faced one break point for the entire tournament :!:
Both BH and BH ROS were also very good in the Davis Cup tie clincher versus GGL (I was there in Vancouver) Forehand was still so-so. I didn't see his first match versus Ramos that was a bit tighter.
He doesn't need to win matches from the baseline. He just needs to minimize losses from the back, which then should give him some break opportunities on a regular basis. He seems to be getting of the tiebreaker doldrums. Time will tell whether that's a trend or a blip.
Maybe not permanent, but if he's slowly showing that he's improving and if he can bring out that ROS and backhand for even a small percentage of games this year (say, 20%) then he'll break the top 10, easy.
with 25 % he's top five with that hold game - easier said than done though
serving machines are a boring disgrace.
Only time will tell ... but this was a thinking man's game, as opposed to the AO, at which point I would have suggested a change in coaching.
Haas took out half of america's young tennis talent in this tournament alone (Isner and S. Johnson). Had he played the other Americans he would have straight set'ed them as well. By your rationale the US should give up on men's tennis... hang up their sticks.
Milos was just better today and Haas didn't get a good read on Roanic's serve in the first set resulting in a lot of easy aces. It happens. Well done to Milos having backed up his solid serving with a much improved ground game*, but Haas played very well. Didn't look old at all in terms of his movement and ball striking.
* Perhaps other big servers should follow Milos' lead and train on red clay in Spain or South America to get a good ground game.
Poor Milosh...get your breakout trophy in San Jose, back it up twice and what's the reward? Bye Bye SAP! Hope he has continued success somewhere else in mid-February.
He should try to play Dubai. Fast courts there would suit him.
Very impressed with Raonic, he is now definitely a better player than Isner and solid top 10 material. Backhand and movement looking a lot better!
Lots of improvement from Raonic. Let's see if he can sustain his level!
This kid is very very very determined. Very very very. And he's very very smart.
With all the work he's put in to work on and improve the areas that he was deficient in plus with his attitude, the sky's the limit...not just Top 10.
San Jose is about the only event he's winning though... let's see if that ever changes. I'm not sure I agree with "sky is the limit". Outside of his serve, he hasn't shown that much game so far. One can hope he finishes the year in top 10 at least, which is definitely not a given. (He didn't last year). I'm also intrigued by the "very, very smart" comment. Are you basing this on interviews? I haven't noticed that superior intelligence on the court yet. But of course he's young and has plenty of time for improvement.
If he can get his return game up from around 15 % (the past two years) to 20+, he's def. top 10. If he can get it around 25 %, we have a big five.
Sampras was around 90-91 % in hold games and 27 % in return games in his good years.
Raonic is 93 % in hold. With anything about 20+ he's a dangerous man.
And from the looks of it this week, he knows that that is where he needs to improve.
I know but he always looks great in San Jose. He has to break through in other events, preferably not a 250. Memphis would be the perfect place to start
Poor Milos. It seems that every tourney he enjoys and gets good results at shuts up shop. He won't get the chance to defend anymore San Jose titles and if he wins Memphis he won't get the chance to defend that next year either as it will revert to a 250!
San Jose is over? Wow I didn't know that. I think it's right Memphis should become a 250. Never understood why it was a 500 to begin with and the field has never seemed very strong (compared to Rotterdam and especially Dubai).
It's a bit weird to see 5 top 10 players in Marseille (250) this week vs. zero in Memphis.
isn't dubai a 500? the field there is pretty strong usually, but suitable for a 500.
the french players turn out for Marseille. they're usually ranked pretty highly. the line up this year is pretty exciting. A really good selection even beyond those ranked top 10.
perhaps milos should check out one of these and/or rotterdam next year.
Yes, Dubai is a 500 and almost always attracts the top players. Winners there for the last 10 years have been either Federer, Djokovic or Nadal (especially the first two) with the sole exception of Roddick in 2008. Murray was a finalist last year (lost to Federer).
It would certainly be good experience for him as Dubai and Rotterdam, both 500s, have historically attracted more top players than their North American equivalents, Memphis and Washington.
dubai probably pays a good appearance fee to get the top players vs memphis
We know that he ia academicly very smart...studied calculus at age 15 and was the best in his class all through high school. Althout his entire family has university degrees he chose a career in tennis.
His smarts are beginning to transfer themselves to the court, noticeably in Davis cup v. Spain and the SAP final. It's all coming together for him.
Even before this year I've noticed that his matchplay awareness and general tennis IQ seem to be quite high for someone of his age and professional experience. Of course he still made plenty of mental or strategic mistakes in 2011-2012, but I got the sense that this was more due to inexperience and the related difficulties of handling high-pressure moments than a lack of intelligence or awareness.
I never got that impression with someone like Roddick to name one example. Despite having a very similar game to Milos, I always found Roddick to be more of a mindless ball-basher with an extremely low tennis IQ and poor strategic awareness. This was most evident in Slam matches with Federer, but this also became apparent in more recent matches against lower-ranked opponents (e.g: his 2010 USO loss to Tipsy).
I think Milos definitely has the potential to develop into one of the best strategic minds on tour. He has a naturally calm demeanour and could develop a mental fortitude comparable to Federer or Sampras as he gains experience. Of course, whether his physical game and execution can reach such a high level remains to be seen, but the potential is definitely there.
You mean his incessant cross-court slice approach shots weren't a good idea?
Ah thanks for the info. So he is a "scholar athlete". Very commendable indeed
If you watched Milos play in San Jose you would have seen a big improvement with his backhand, ROS and even his movement. It shocked me because he had regressed quite a bit in the past six months or so.
When we talk about smarts to me Milos seems very together and mature for his age and he seems very very hungry and determined (vbc is right in her post above.) That is what I think is going to propel this kid into the top ten or higher eventually. In a very short time he has improved a lot, the question will be can he keep it up and be consistent? The hunger is there big time and that is what separates him from those other young guns, who don't seem to have much of a work ethic or hunger imo. Time will tell.
i think he's got a huge upside and I've been thinking that for two years now. He hasn't done it as fast as I imagined, but when we see - like in San Jose - that he can actually improve in his movement, ROS and backhand, then there's some huge potential there.
As you say, the mental game has been there all along, very composed, very unnerved by pressure imo.
And obviously, the hold game. When Isner's serve can carry him to top-10, I don't see why Milos can't go higher as he's marginally better at holding and better in most other departments.
Furthermore, given the lack of developed talent between 20-24, he hasn't got that many challengers from his own age-group.

The man charged in the 1984 killing of Tina Faelz will be tried as an adult, it was decided Tuesday.
Steven Carlson was charged with a single count of murder in the death of the 14-year-old Foothill High School freshman, who was killed nearly 28 years ago.
Tuesday in juvenile court in San Leandro -- where Carlson has been appearing since his arrest last fall -- Judge Trina Thompson ruled that he be tried as a adult, although he was a juvenile when he allegedly killed Faelz.
The teen's body was discovered in a drainage ditch after school April 5, 1984. Carlson remains in the Santa Rita Jail, and Cameron Bowman is taking over the case from Richard Foxall, the public defender originally assigned. Bowman was hired by Carlson's family to take the case from the public defender's office.
Had Carlson been arrested in 1984 when he was still a teen, a similar hearing would have been held, and the laws from that time still apply. Currently, a juvenile can be charged as an adult by the District Attorney's Office without such a hearing.
Carlson has served time, including a felony count of lewd or lascivious act with a child under 14 years of age, and he is on the state's Megan's Law list of sex offenders. Police have previously said Faelz did not appear to have been sexually molested.
Faelz was last seen alive about an hour before her body was found. While the freshman girl often took the bus home from school, she had recently started walking home to avoid being teased by other students riding the bus, her mother, Shirley Orosco, said in a 2008 interview with the Pleasanton Weekly.
Like many of her classmates, Faelz took a back route from the high school, walking on a path that connected through Aster Court to Lemonwood Way and under Interstate 680 to her home in the Valley Trails neighborhood. That day, she only made it part way when police believe she was approached and subsequently stabbed to death.

Tomlin discusses move to bullpen
By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com
"I wasn't performing as a starter," Tomlin said on Wednesday. "I wasn't performing up to my expectations or the team's expectations. Every fifth day, you don't know what you're going to get out there. It's kind of tough to put that burden on the team.
"No one is more upset about it than I am, but it's the reality of the game. It's a business and that's the kind of stuff that needs to be done if you want to win."
Tomlin was one of Cleveland's most consistent starters a season ago, when he tied for the team high in wins (12) and finished with a 4.25 ERA. This season, the right-hander has struggled to command the strike zone, and he has not featured the changeup that was so effective last year.
This season, Tomlin has gone 5-8 with a 5.81 ERA in 18 appearances. The pitcher had gone 2-5 with a 7.02 ERA in his last eight starts, necessitating the move to the bullpen, where Tomlin will stay for the foreseeable future.
"I think that he can be very helpful here out of the 'pen for us," Indians manager Manny Acta said. "It's something in the past a lot of people had envisioned him doing if he didn't pan out as a starter up here. That's not to say that he's not going to start again.
"But, for the rest of the season, unless we're pressed into some type of emergency, he's going to continue to pitch out of the 'pen for now."
Rottino called up as Hafner placed on paternity list
KANSAS CITY -- The Indians placed Travis Hafner on Major League Baseball's paternity list on Wednesday, giving the veteran designated hitter between one to three days to be with his family for the birth of their second son.
Cleveland promoted utility man Vinnie Rottino from Triple-A Columbus to temporarily take Hafner's spot on the roster.
"Vinnie's going to be here a couple of days up until Hafner comes back, unless something changes," Indians manager Manny Acta said. "He's a guy that can play in the corners in the outfield, the corners in the infield and even catch. That's what he's going to do."
Acta added that Rottino will probably be in the lineup on Thursday, when the Indians are scheduled to face Royals lefty Bruce Chen.
The Indians claimed the 32-year-old Rottino off waivers from the Mets on June 27 and he has since played 30 games for Triple-A Columbus in Cleveland's system. With the Clippers, Rottino has hit .299 with four home runs, nine doubles and 32 RBIs.
"He's playing well down there in Triple-A," Acta said. "He's a guy who has a lot of energy."
Rottino -- a right-handed hitter whose main positions are first base and corner outfield -- has hit .188 in parts of five Major League seasons between stints with the Brewers, Marlins and Mets. He appeared in 18 games with New York this season, hitting .182 (6-for-33) in his short stay in The Show.
Hafner has hit .230 with 10 home runs and 29 RBIs in 59 games for the Indians this season. The DH has hit just .203 (13-for-64) in 20 games since returning from a six-week stint on the disabled list, following surgery on his right knee.
Smoke signals
The Indians had been outscored, 36-9, over the first four games of this road trip for an average score of roughly 9-2. Indians manager Manny Acta said large deficits such as the ones faced in those four games against the Twins and Royals take a toll on a team's typical approach.
"It changes the way you're going to play the game right away," Acta said. "When you're trying to catch up down by five or six runs, you don't play the game the same way. You're not as aggressive running the bases. You're down by a ton of runs. You're not going to be bunting. It's just a difficult game. It changes the dynamic of how you can play the game."
The Royals changed their probable starter for Thursday to left-hander Bruce Chen, who has gone 6-1 with a 3.74 ERA over the past three years against the Indians. Why the switch? Beyond having issues against Chen, Cleveland is 10-22 against left-handed starters this season and ranks last in the American League with a .219 team average against lefties.
Indians catcher Carlos Santana has reached base via a hit or walk in 22 of 24 games since July 1. Over that span, Santana has hit .276 with four homers, eight doubles and 12 RBIs for the Tribe. Entering Wednesday, the catcher had hit .300 (15-for-50) in his last 15 games.
Quote to note
"I definitely would like to be a starter again, but right now my job is to go out there and get guys out whenever they hand me the ball. That's what I'm going to go out there and try to do."
--Indians pitcher Josh Tomlin, who has been moved to the bullpen

The EpiScope MSP Kit features a reagent designed exclusively for DNA methylation analysis via methylation specific PCR (MSP)1. This reagent contains a specific enzyme in an optimized buffer, allowing MSP analyses on bisulfite-treated uracil-containing DNA templates. This kit features high amplification efficiency and methylation specificity compared with standard PCR. The EpiScope MSP Kit is optimized for real-time monitoring using SYBR Green I2, enabling the performance of both real-time and endpoint PCR under the same reaction conditions.
Methlylation specific PCR identifies nucleotide regions in which cytosines have been altered to uracils following bisulfite treatment of the DNA template. These alterations are a function of the DNA template's CpG methylation status; methylated cytosines remain unaltered while the unmethylated cytosines are altered to uracils. Two primers are designed to detect these unaltered or altered regions, the methylated CpG DNA (M primer) and the unmethylated CpG DNA (UM primer), respectively. The last step involves methylation specific PCR.
*The Mg2+ concentration (2X) is 4 mM and the dNTP concentration (2X) is 400 µM.

Another Crambinae, this one I think is Agriphila geniculea.
24.09.2013 - North Italy
Thanks for the help!
Hi Marcello,
I think you have chosen the most likely species - Agriphila geniculea.
For reference, these are also similar, but I have not compared their distributions with northern Italy:
A. tersellus - - http://pathpiva.wifeo.com/agriphila-tersellus.php
A. tolli - http://www.lepiforum.de/lepiwiki.pl?Agriphila_Tolli
Pediasia contaminella - http://www.lepiforum.de/lepiwiki.pl?Pediasia_Contaminella
Hi Mike,
yes, they are all present here, I was undecided from A. geniculea and A. tolli.
I did not find substantial differences, so I based on the photos around the web.
Do you think I could say Agriphila cf geniculea?
Yes, almost - you should include '.', that is: Agriphila cf. geniculea
For aff., cf., ? and other terms of 'open nomenclature' see Peter Bengston's paper here - http://www.webcitation.org/5vxR3btgz.
It is often tempting to use '?', but in many circumsances that causes a problem - because '?' cannot be used in file names of many computer operating systems (it is OK in Apple/IOS). It really is a shame that reasonable usage should be curtailed in this way, but that's life!

I have learned quite a bit of C++ console programming in college (got my associates degree in it for CS). I am learning Windowz Visual programming now on my own. I have been playing around with a book written by Herbert Schildt called Windows 98 Programming from the Ground Up. I am using it to get my feet wet and will move on to better books later. (It was 7.99 at Borders with ~800 pages... can't beat that.)
Still, even with all of this work, I seriously doubt I am going to be a full time programmer. So why am I doing all of this? I am not really sure, but I like to know how things work, and in my quest for programming knowlege (Assembly, C++, VB) and webpage creation (HTML, Js), I have learned more about computers than I ever thought that I would.
So, maybe that is it. Maybe I learn programming to learn other things. Maybe part of knowing how things work is knowing why they work...
What about you...?

DETROIT - Several popular Detroit-area radio personalities have been fired during a major shakeup by Clear Channel Media and Entertainment.
Longtime WMXD-FM (92.3) host Frankie Darcell is among those let go. Darcell hosted the "Afternoon Mix" from 3 p.m. - 7 p.m.
She has been with WMXD for 11 years and with Clear Channel for 18 years.
Darcell told Local 4 she was "shocked" by the firing but that she "remains in good spirits."
"I walked out today and I stand on the fact that my tomorrow's gonna be greater," she said. "I'm not trying to jump off that bridge the governor is trying to build, so I'm good."
It's Darcell's witty sense of humor along with the smooth and sultry voice listeners in Detroit and across the country have enjoyed for 20 years.
"They made this home for me. Folks think I went to Osborn and Cass. They made me one of theirs," she said.
Darcell's ratings have been through the roof. However, Clear Channel told her it was letting her go. Industry insiders told Local 4 they are shocked because Darcell's show was so popular and she had just signed a three-year contract in September.
"Was I prepared for it? Absolutely not. Am I ready for it? Yes," she said. "Is there a sense of uneasy and sadness? When you love what you do, like I love what I do, I wouldn't be human if I didn't say there wasn't a sense of sadness there."
Other hosts let go during the shake up include Jag from 95.5, Dave Dahmer (The D 106.7), Eric Chase (WDFN), and Dan Watkins, Jenna Cork, Kristin Burns and Danielle Car all from WNIC.
Clear Channel released the following statement:
"Like every successful business, our strategy continues to evolve. As we move forward as a company, this creates some new jobs and unfortunately eliminates others. These are never easy decisions to make. In the process of making these changes, some employees were affected. We thank them for their services and wish them well in the future."

So you have your new shiny Galaxy Tab, and you want to root it. I like the way you think. The good news is that the days of SDK's, cryptic shell commands, and crazy Windows USB drivers are over. An app from the Market (z4root -- links after the break) will root your Tab, as well as other Galaxy S phones and other NAND unlocked devices with just a button press.
- Download and install Z4Root from the Market
- Enable USB debugging (menu>settings>applications>development)
- Run the app, and press the "root" button
Your Tab will restart, and you're rooted. Unrooting is just as easy, just run z4root and "unroot." Of course a lot of the goodies available for other devices just haven't been made for the Tab just yet, but they're coming. Hit the jump for download links and a list of other phones this will work on. [XDA Developers via Pocketables]

New dental clinic expands services to clients
Jan. 10, 2013 at 4:03 p.m.
Updated Jan. 10, 2013 at 7:11 p.m.
Elda Gonzalez traveled an hour and 45 minutes from her home in Port Lavaca to Gonzales to seek dental services at Gonzales Community Health Center. But it wasn't just for her.
Along with her two kids and husband, Gonzalez said she made the trip because no dental services were available at a rate she can afford. She has no health insurance.
That's all changed now that the Victoria Community Dental Clinic is expanding its services to see children as young as 6 months old to adults beginning this month. Families no longer have to be separated and can all see a physician for dental work.
"It's less gas and not spending as much money," said Gonzalez. "It's closer now."
The Victoria Community Dental Clinic, which is run by the Community Health Centers of South Central Texas, started taking patients this month. The clinic is available and open to everyone, said Health Centers CEO Henry Salas.
"If people need help, that's what we're here for," Salas said. "Nobody is turned away for their inability to pay."
Community Health Center medical director Dr. James Quartey said the health center will have one full-time and part-time doctor. Over the next few months, he hopes to expand the clinic to have six doctors.
Quartey said he is relieved that people will not have to travel far for services.
"We had one patient from Victoria coming to Gonzales every day. That's at least an hour drive," he said. This "will save those who travel out of town."

|We did this in two full pitches with a 70 m rope. Found the climbing to be a mix of class 3-5, with some challenging route-finding. Rock quality is not great. We encountered LOTS of loose rock--including a bath-tub size flake near the top that moved when weighted!!--and grunge in the cracks. Plus bushes with sticklers. Top out was a lot of fun along a "sidewalk in the sky". Rather than rappel down, we down-climbed the short class 3 section from the notch between #3 and #4 to the west side.

There were several airy traverses and the chickenheads were breaking off, making for a spicy climb. When descending we found the hard way that rappelling off the north side could not be done with a single rope. After fighting stuck rope on the first rappel on the south side we finally got off #9 and went to bag #3 and break out the champagne on the summit.

No entries in the register since Bob and Matthew last year. We will have to go back to get those other two another time, #4 looks like we will definitely want a rope again, and #6 was just a little more exposed and difficult than I wanted to downclimb at the end of a long day (which included an hour of rest for me to deal with random indigestion). We need to climb them all...they are depicted on the engagement ring that a jeweler friend designed for us earlier this year!

Protect Your Patio Furniture
The best covers for your outdoor furniture
We tested eight brands of furniture covers for their fit on a variety of furniture, how they stand up to the elements (by subjecting the fabric to abrasion, tear-strength, and water- and UV-resistance tests), and how easy they are to put on and take off. (Measure your furniture before you buy.) Our picks:
Most Durable
Lowe's Garden Treasures ($15 to $25 per piece) are the covers you want in a snowy area. The fabric is exceptionally tough, resisting tears and fading and drying quickly; however, it does have a tendency to pill over time.
Easy On/Easy Off
While no cover was a cinch to put on, Sears' Garden Oasis ($25 to $45) was the simplest, with no fussy drawstrings or elastic. The material proved average on tear strength and abrasion but resisted UV fading and repelled water well.
Wet-Weather Winner
Kmart's Martha Stewart Everyday Garden ($20 to $30) is a great choice if it rains a lot but seldom snows. The fabric is very water repellent and dries quickly, but it tears more easily than others. Tricky to install, the drawstring is fed in by hand.
Most Versatile Fit
The Veranda Collection by Classic Accessories ($18 to $80) will accommodate the widest range of furniture, with elastic, drawstrings, and leg clips for customized protection. While the fabric stood up well to tearing, it didn't do as well on the other durability tests, and took a long time to dry.

Comments about Vetiver Frozen Cologne:
A mildly interesting variation of a classic. It's not notably 'better' or 'worse' than Guerlain's classic Vetiver, but just slightly different, adding a subtle, naturalistic mint-leaf topnote. In my opinion, reviews (and Guerlain's own advertising) tend to exaggerate the minty quality. In reality it's subtle and doesn't last long. It's not icy or cold, but minty like a cup of mint tea. Overall, this scent has acceptable longevity, and I only recommend it for fragrance collectors. Otherwise, just get Guerlain's standard Vetiver, which is still very good.

and - still have not found the connector to transfer pics if it doesn't show up soon I'm buying another!
I wanted to post a couple of pointers for the first 3 blocks. They are quite straight forward. I did not paper piece or foundation piece B4. Whenever possible I use a small 6 1/2" square ruler to determine what size I should cut all pieces - there are so few of them! at least so far.... I line up two sides with the 1/4" mark and cut pieces accordingly.
A note about measuring... I have found that if I place the 1/4" mark my ruler 'against' rather than 'on top of' a sewing line, I end up with a few more threads of width -- just enough to make up for the thickness of the thread and my sewing. Be sure to test what 1/4" is on your machine on a regular basis. It tends to change a little every time you have it serviced and sometimes even when you change thread or needles I have found. One of my LQS owners says you should sew a few strips together that are 1 1/2" wide and make sure that the center strip ends up 1" wide when you do so to check for the perfect 1/4" seam. I'm lazy I admit - I just check the measurement of the first pieces on the project I am working on, if I have to do it over again - oh well. But if it is right the first time - why should I waste time trying it with something else??
Getting back to B4...
I measured each piece with my ruler and added them to the sides of the center 3" square, centering each successive strip. I pressed each time a section was complete all the way around the square -- remember PRESS = straight up and down - no stretching of fabric allowed by moving your iron back & forth - you do not iron. When I had added a light strip to the square all the way around, I checked to make sure it measured correctly - such that the next 1/4" seam to the dark fabric left the right width light band - [1/4"] and so forth. A little extra work - but the result is well worth it!

Cozart remains sidelined with stomach bug
By Mark Sheldon / MLB.com
NEW YORK -- Shortstop Zack Cozart was out of the lineup for a second straight day on Monday as he continues to deal with a stomach illness.
Cozart became sick on the team bus following Saturday's game at Philadelphia and was quarantined in the trainer's room during Sunday's series finale. He was feeling much better on Monday and was able to join his teammates in the visitors' clubhouse at Citi Field.
"The doc couldn't say if it was food poisoning or just a little bug. It was awful," Cozart said. "On Saturday night it was bad. I'm off today to get fluids in me as much as possible. I'm sure I'm still dehydrated, even after I drank a lot of water yesterday."
Cozart was disappointed, because he is 4-for-5 lifetime against Mets starter Shaun Marcum.
"I like facing Marcum," he said.
Manager Dusty Baker often gives his players an extra day off, even when they are feeling better, after an injury or illness.
"I really wasn't that surprised," Cozart said.
Cesar Izturis once again started in Cozart's spot.
Aroldis bounces back in opener with Mets
NEW YORK -- On the heels of Sunday's heartbreaking walk-off loss to the Phillies, in which he gave up back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the ninth, Aroldis Chapman returned strong vs. the Mets on Monday, earning his ninth save with a perfect ninth that included two strikeouts.
"I'm glad I put Chapman back out there," manager Dusty Baker said. "It's always important. You've got to get back on that horse and ride it right away, or else it festers and grows. You don't want that to happen."
In allowing the homers to Erik Kratz and Freddy Galvis on Sunday, Chapman blew his second straight save after having a one-run lead.
Baker compared the situation with that of May 7, when Devin Mesoraco and Shin-Soo Choo hit back-to-back homers for a walk-off win over the Braves' elite closer, Craig Kimbrel.
"You know, this is a funny game," Baker said of Chapman before Monday's game. "We're extremely happy when it happens to the other guy. Everybody was super-happy when it happened to Kimbrel. When it happened to us, everybody wants to know what's wrong and are looking for answers. Sometimes there are no answers."
Against the Mets, Chapman worked entirely from the stretch. He threw 11 pitches, and of his eight strikeouts, six were swings and misses. He reached 99 mph four times.
A bizarre story from CBSPhilly.com surfaced early Monday, with a Spanish-language reporter claiming that Chapman was ill during the Phillies game after devouring 18 Cuban pastries filled with cream cheese and guava after receiving them as a gift from the reporter.
Baker dismissed the story, however.
"That has nothing to do with what he did," he said. "Look at him -- does he look fat? I don't pay any attention to that. ... Sometimes that locker room is too open for everybody, which makes it too open for alibis and excuses if something happens."
Pastries or not, Chapman has struggled for much of this month. After having a 0.68 ERA in April, he entered Monday night with a 9.53 ERA in seven appearances with six earned runs, nine hits and six walks.
Soto optioned to Triple-A Louisville
NEW YORK -- As a companion move to activating ace Johnny Cueto from the disabled list to start Monday's game against the Mets, the Reds optioned infielder Neftali Soto to Triple-A Louisville. Soto had been called up for the first time on Saturday and debuted as a defensive replacement that day vs. the Phillies.
In the ninth inning of Sunday's game, Soto pinch-hit for his first big league at-bat and grounded out to third base.
"It was his first taste of the big leagues. He'll be back," manager Dusty Baker said. "His swing has been pretty good."
Worth noting
The Reds' original lineup on Monday had Derrick Robinson in center field and leading off instead of Choo. The lineup was corrected during the afternoon.
"I did the lineup yesterday," Baker said. "I was going to give Choo a day off. I thought [Mets lefty Jonathon] Niese was pitching [on Monday]. He will be off tomorrow."

" Manufacturer: Tesco / Type: Pie "
I like a bit of pork pie. I know it's not a healthy snack, but sometimes healthy just isn't what you're after now is it. My favourite pork pies are Pork Farms Pork pies - specially the little snack ones that come two in a pack. Somehow they're just the best with all the right amounts of everything packed in there.
Today, they didn't have any in Tesco  So I had to go with the Tesco version instead. They are branded as Tesco Melton Mowbray pork pies, which is what pork farms pork pies are, so they should be very similar. The two pork pies together weigh in at 150g so they're pretty small as you can imagine, but that's ok as they are just a snack after all. They cost 98p which isn't a whole lot cheaper than my favourites Pork Farm which come in at about £1.19 normally, although the pork farm ones are slightly smaller coming in at 120g for a pack of two.
The pastry on the outside looks nice, it's not got quite as thick and crumbly a look to it as the pork farm pies do, but it doesn't look bad. I cut mine in half (well biting into them can be a bit messy otherwise), and the meat inside has a similar colour and look to the pork farm ones again, so far so good. Doesn't look like there's much if any jelly round between the meat and the pastry though which is a shame as I do like that bit.
Flavour as I bite into this is good. It's not great though. The meat is spicy, and tastes good, but it's a little too smooth as is the pastry, it doesn't crumble around the edges as I get a bit in my mouth the way it should, and there really is no rich jelly to soften the flavour and melt as you eat it. If I eat a bit of the pastry separately its actually quite a good flavour, not too rich, and nice and savoury. The meat when eaten alone however is a bit disappointing. There's a little bit too much fat in there I think, and it doesn't quite have enough meat flavour although the spiciness is about right still.
Overall it's not a bad little pie, and I think if I'd never eaten a Pork Farms pork pie I'd be very satisfied with it. But somehow, when you've tasted the best, the rest just can't cut the mustard I guess. At least this one has proper brown coloured meat in it, not that pink stuff that's pretending to be pork, I do hate those ones although hubby who prefers his meat rare prefers them. The main bit that's really missing here is the jelly. There just is none in the pie at all, and it's a real shame because a lot of the flavour is held in that savoury meaty jelly that should be there.
I brought one of these Tesco Melton Mowbray pork pies last week when I was in a 'pork pie or die' mood, most of the pork pies had gone because of everyone buying them for Xmas but there were loads of these left. I should have realised it was because they were crap but that didn't occur to me until I got home and ate it.
It's a horrible greasy pork pie, the filling is more gristly that meaty and I just hated everything about it.
The pie even LOOKED greasy when I unwrapped it and the smell off it was also very greasy. I shouldn't have even bothered biting into it because I knew it wasn't going to be very nice..... and I was right!
The meat is a horrible mixture of pink and grey, it smells fatty and looks rank. I had 3 small bites and every one had a large piece of gristle in it, the pork taste wasn't very strong and if it wasn't for the bits of meat gristle you could have thought these were vegetarian pork pies! lol
Like I said, the pastry is proper greasy but inside the meat is too dry. It doesn't feel nice to eat and even when I dipped the meat into a bit of sauce I STILL think it tasted much too dry to enjoy. The combination of greasy pastry and boring dry pork pie meat was too horrible to put into words and there is no way I'm ever buying one of these again.
There are 2 snack pork pies in this pack and the other one is going into the bin because I've slagged them off so much that no-one else in the house wants to eat it! They were 2 for 98p and it was a waste of nearly a quid, the pork pies were proper nasty and there are lots of pork pies available for about the same price that are loads nicer than these bad excuses!
Not recommended, not even worth 1 star!!!
Being patriotic, I love the fact that things like Cheddar Cheese are being given EU status, where things like Cheddar can only be authenticated if created in that region, the same applies to Pork Pies from Melton Mowbray, which are now protected and rightly so as a decent authentic Pork Pie, is worth the problems with cholesterol and fat, its a wonderful pie filled with pork, egg and some lovely spicing.
Well Tesco have their own version of the Melton Mowbray, its not really comparable to true versions of the pie and really lets down the Melton Mowbray name , this is a small almost plasticity version with bland pastry, meat which is not particularly recognisable as Pork and a taste similar to the one you have when you go to the dentist and have a filling.
It is packaged in blue and white and looks similar to the normal pork pies, it is also packaged similarly to the scotch eggs and sausage rolls and just fits in, I wish i'd mistaken it for something else now and bought a proper pork pie or sausage roll rather than this fat filled monstrosity.
Its only available in Tesco obviously and costs 74p for a 145g pie, one pie contains 535 calories, now i'm not somebody who watches their fat intake, but I would say be very cautious here, the pies has 35g of fat which is half your recommended daily intake, if it tasted amazing i'd advise you to risk one once in a while, but this is bland, tasteless and it actually makes me feel a bit ill so i'd advise not to eat one, especially as it contains only 26% pork, the rest is wheat flour, fat, gelatine, starch and pepper, its an abomination and embarrassment to the good name of Melton Mowbray and not recommended at all.
Basically this will make you fat and ill, it is tiny and when you think about it your better off eating a couple of chocolate bars or some fried chicken or spare ribs as they are at least filling and tasty, this is bland, the pastry is wrong on every level, its greasy, tastes almost sour and the gelatine is horrible too, the pork is pork and other things, which I hate to imagine whilst the seasoning is overdone and definite to hide the lack of pork, flavour and quality.
In case you hadn't guessed I don't think you should buy this product.
I have to admit that I am more of a savoury than a sweet person. I know that pastries are really bad for you but there are times when only a sausage roll or a pork pie will do. It was during one of these times that I picked up a small Melton Mowbray pork pie form Tescos.
This pork pie is 145g in weight, so it is little more than a party sized one, and it cost £0.74.
The pork pie is wrapped in dark blue shiny paper with "Melton Mowbray" written in italics all over it. The packaging is understated and boring. Most packaging is bright and bold in order to catch the public's attention, but this is not the case with this product. In fact, whilst looking in the refrigerated section it was quite difficult to tell what this product was.
The summary of the nutritional information is clearly displayed on the front of the product and the rest of the information is on a sticker on the back of the product in a font so small that you virtually need a microscope to read it.
The primary ingredients of this pork pie are wheat flour, pork, pork fat, pork gelatine, vegetable oil, potato starch, egg, white pepper amongst others.
I should note that the pork content is very low at 26%.
****Nutritional information****
Each 145g pork pie contains:
1) 535 calories
2) 4.2g of sugar
3) 35.1g of fat (50% of the total recommended daily intake)
4) 13.2g of saturates (66% of the total recommended daily intake)
5) 1.6g of salt (20% of the total daily intake).
These pork pies are seriously unhealthy and bad for you, and let's face it a small pork pie is easily devoured by one person in one go. All aspects are so high that this should be a meal in itself but it merely makes up part of a meal.
****Allergy advice****
This product carries an allergy warning in that it contains wheat, gluten and eggs, so if you have any problems with these then this pie is unsuitable for you.
This product does not contain nuts, however.
****My thoughts****
As far as pork pies go I was very disappointed and this was diabolical.
The pastry crust was very thick and it was too moist, which I can only assume is die to the amount of fat and oil in the product. I could almost feel the grease drip down my lips as I took the first bite. It was awful. I could definitely feel the grease on my hand after I had eaten it.
In between the filling and the pastry crust was a layer of pork gelatine. This is typical of all pork pies, however, I have never encountered so much of it in one pork pie before. There was far too much and it is not necessary. It got to the point where I had to pull the gelatine out of the pie and throw it away. Not good etiquette I know but it was necessary.
The filling left a lot to be desired. It has got a low pork content but I wonder how they bulk it up and make the rest of the filling. There were some gristly bits in the filling, some of which were very chewy. The consistency of this was not good.
****Would I recommend this pork pie?****
I would definitely not recommend this pork pie. I thought that Melton Mowbray pork pies were meant to be the best, but if they all taste like this then they have a reputation that they clearly should not have.
In my opinion this is a pork pie that is best left alone.

Family fun steps back a century.

Blue Suede Cruise: Welcome to the nationals of Nostalgia!
NORWALK, Ohio – Summit Motorsports Park turned into one big candy jar for the Wanda AkzoNobel Blue Suede Cruise July 19-21, 2013 in Norwalk, Ohio.
For this fine weekend, age doesn't matter.
We're all big kids.
Splashes of eye-popping color tantalize the senses in every corner of the Park, from pristine show cars and rumbling hot rods to event T-shirts which capture the feeling of it all.
We'd like to say, "Meet my favorite Hot Rod."
They ooze with personality and their names prove it. The hard part is picking one. Which points to the extra dilemma of judging a car show from the ocean of beauties.
Most states sent automotive enthusiasts, who found deals and advice at the Manufacturers' Midway, Swap Meet, Women's World and Car Corral.
Cars offered for sale attracted the attention of Phillip Frable, 45, and Mike Aversa, 47 – brothers-in-law looking for a shared project -- from east of Allentown, Pa.
Professionally Mike Aversa supports computer systems for an electric utility, and Phillip Frable, a model maker, works with engineers to create prototypes from blueprints.
Their most recent project converted a 1968 Pontiac Lemans -- Mike Aversa's first car bought in 1985 – from an automatic to a stick shift.
"I couldn't have done it without him," Mike Aversa said.
"I'm always tinkering," Phillip Frable said. "I do a lot of automotive work for guys at night. There's always a car or two at my house at night."
Phillip Frable said he bought a 1969 Camaro, a car model dear to his heart, in 1997 for $6,000 and sold it in 2007 for $20,000.
"My first car was a '69 Camaro," Phillip Frable said. "I've had five or six of them."
The Pennsylvania duo browsed the Swap Meet at the Wanda AkzoNobel Blue Suede Cruise and checked out a little Mopar with stripes on the roof before continuing on their way to Illinois.
"Every year we go to someplace different," Mike Aversa said, adding their project shopping transcends brand. "I appreciate the history. I like the vintage drag racing, the old school stuff."
In one of the vendor displays, Bill Watkins, Suffield, Ohio, said he retired from construction and found an automotive friend.
"Now I help Jim," Bill Watkins said, referring to Jim Palosi, Canton, Ohio. "We have a little shop in Hartville, Customs Unlimited of Ohio. We build hot rods, customs, and car restorations."
Find information about the 15-year-old business on the Web at customsunlimited.net, or find them on Facebook.com.
For the Wanda AkzoNobel Blue Suede Cruise, Customs Unlimited brought two show cars.
A sonic blue 1955 Thunderbird sported an all-steel body, a 4.6 L. Cobra engine, and a five-speed transmission.
"It's been done about three years," Jim Palosi said. "I don't own it. The owner got it out of Honolulu, Hawaii. The owner gave it to him if he would ship it here. He brought it to me. It's been 10 years in the building."
Bill Watkins pulled out a photo album stoked with history about his Prowler orange 1969 Plymouth Barracuda.
"I've had it 42 years," Bill Watkins said. "It's my first car. My dad got that for me so I could drive it to school."
Six months later, Bill Watkins answered a call to serve the United States of America. His father, Don Watkins, stored the Barracuda for him.
"My dad drove Chryslers and De Sotos the whole time I was growing up. I kind of learned that way. I found out what underdogs they were and stuck with it."
One of the earliest photos in the album shows Bill Watkins standing in front of his green Barracuda.
"It's been a lot of things in the '70s," Bill Watkins said. The solid green emerged into white with green airbrushed on main body lines.
"In the '80s I tried to restore it," Bill Watkins said. "It sat in my barn until 2005. I decided to do something with it, so I brought it to Jim."
Sizzling with detail, the orange 1969 Barracuda graces the front cover and centerfold of the September-October 2010 Summit Racing Equipment catalog.
"Benny's Upholstery did the seats," Bill Watkins said. "They're a pair of Summit seats covered in leather. Jim did all the sheet metal on the back, so everything is all level and smooth."
Expert advice abounds at the Wanda AkzoNobel Blue Suede Cruise.
Find the Wanda AkzoNobel display area full of Lingenfelter show cars, and color savvy is a question away.
Jeff Evans, technical and training manager for North America for Wanda, also provides three product seminars – at 10 a.m., noon, and 3 p.m. Saturday.
Also, auto body and paint shops interested in Wanda products may contact Tom Deighen, PBE sales representative for LKQ of Cleveland, 16485 Rockside Road, Maple Heights, Ohio 44137, or call 330-573-8867.
Nearby a Lingenfelter 1932 Ford three-window coupe street rod introduces a tragedy-turned-to-hope story.
Ken Lingenfelter bought the '32 Ford for $65,000, and all the money funds research for cures for childhood cancers through Curing Kids Cancer, a charity founded in 2005 by Grainne and Clay Owen, said Amanda Smith, director of development for Curing Kids Cancer, 4250 Vienna Way, Marietta, Ga., on the Web at curingkidscancer.org.
While Grainne and Clay Owen's son, Killian, struggled against acute lymphocytic leukemia, they learned a new cure in a lab lacked money for research.
A year after Killian's death at age nine, his parents launched fundraising efforts for research to "turn these killer diseases into curable ones in our lifetime!"
On the Summit side of the race track, car clubs met for camaraderie and great deals. At least one orange Swap Meet find parked on the roof of an orange and gold, 1956 Dodge Sierra wagon, as if they were made for each other.
Monroeville, Ohio native Derek Yoder, 32, Avon Lake, Ohio, a graphics designer for American Greetings, Cleveland, posts his creative side work on the Web at derekyoder.com.
Derek Yoder said he's attended just about every Blue Suede Cruise at Summit Motorsports Park.
"I don't think I've missed one," Derek Yoder said. "Even when it was the Good Guys. Me and my buddies belong to a car club in Cleveland, Resurrectors, which formed in 2007. I've been in it a few years."
All of the Resurrectors' cars are drivers, he said.
"They're not fancy."
Derek Yoder hoped to find a surfboard for on top of his Sierra Wagon, but echoes of the voice of his son, Atticus, 2, swayed his Swap Meet choice.
"He tells me he wants to 'drive Daddy's hot wad,'" Derek Yoder said. "I told him I got him a hot rod trike. I'm going to clean it up for him so it can match the car."
A handmade cardboard sign on a post deep in the car show area said, "Road Faeries."
Don "The Mailman" Cooper from Roundup, Montana explained
"We're not tied down to anything," said Don Cooper. "We just flutter around and go where there's a good time."
Most of the members of the Road Faeries met online in automotive forums, Don Cooper said. Early on Friday evening they gathered at a picnic table at Summit Motorsports Park from Spring Hill, Florida; Charleston, West Virginia; Charlotte, North Carolina; Warsaw, Kentucky; Salt Lake City, Utah; Montana; and more.
"We ask, 'Where is there a real good car show, a party, and drag racing?' We all get together," Don Cooper said, "and we'll be here this weekend."
Part of the fun included packing Don Cooper's 1951 Ford Rat Rod pickup with friends and tooling to the track for Flaming River fun runs.
"I built it a year and a half ago, pieces here and there, various places," Don Cooper said. "People gave up on it."
But two youngsters excited to enjoy the results and go on a Rat Rod ride were Eric, 12, and Roger, 10, grandsons of Tom and Kathy Biesiada, Salt Lake City, Utah.
And Wanda AkzoNobel Blue Suede Cruise received high marks from the brothers.
"Awesome," Eric said. "I love the noise of the drag racing."
"I just like watching them go down," Roger said, "and seeing the different cars."
"This is our first time here," said Tom Biesiada, adding they only brought their motorhome this time, and settled in for a weekend of camping. "It's great! We heard about it before. Looks good. You've got some real good cars out here."
Also included in the Road Faeries, Dale Mackey, Charleston, West Virginia parked a 1939 Ford nearby.
"It's a little different," Dale Mackey said. "Had it about four years now."
Dale Mackey finessed every step of the restoration.
"A lot of time and a lot of money," Dale Mackey said. "It's all Corvette powered, computerized, and air conditioned. It's got everything on it except cruise control."
Yes, into his classic Ford, Dale Mackey wrenched a Corvette 350 LS-1 engine.
"They're so dependable," Dale Mackey said. "It's a very good, dependable cruising car: Goes wherever, no problem whatsoever. The top comes off and makes it into a convertible."
For a distinctive color, Dale Mackey chose black walnut pearl, a 2003 Lexus color, with a custom tan color on top.
An iron worker for 35 years, Dale Mackey motored up for five Blue Suede Cruises so far.
As Don Cooper loaded up his Rat Rod to tool the track, he said he enjoyed the company and variety.
"Thanks again for letting our car club be here," Don Cooper said. "We travel with a big group. We'll be back."
In the Summit Racing Equipment display on the Summit side of the track, Dave Firebaugh polished a candy apple red, 1965 AC Cobra that he built from a kit and took to Autoworks in Wooster, Ohio for paint.
"The base coat is gold metallic," said Dave Firebaugh, Wooster, Ohio. "You tape off for the ghost flames, shoot one coat of red, take the tape off, and shoot another coat of red.
"I got the kit in February of 2007," Dave Firebaugh said. "It took me two years to build it. I put it on the road in July of 2009."
Dave Firebaugh's background centered in the skilled trades.
"I was a welder, but I always worked on cars," Dave Firebaugh said. "I went down to Texas for awhile. While I was there I went to UTI, Universal Technical Institute, and got an associates in Auto Diesel and Industrial Technology."
Then a generous 1956 Thunderbird entered Dave Firebaugh's life nine years ago through his wife, Betty.
"When I married her she knew I always wanted this Cobra," Dave Firebaugh said. "She told me if I sold the T-bird I could build my Cobra. So we say the '56 T-bird was the donor car. It donated the money to build the Cobra."
The Cobra's amenities include a 351 Windsor engine, a 5-speed TKO Tremec 600 transmission, the Cobra logo on leather seats, and a solid mahogany dash.
The kit contained the body, frame and many of the parts.
"I had to add the motor, wheels, transmission, stuff like that," Dave Firebaugh said. "The dash was a piece of plastic. I took it to a cabinetmaker."
Installing the body and adjusting the fit posed the biggest challenge of the kit, Dave Firebaugh said.
In June, Dave Firebaugh entered his labor of love in a Cobra Show in London, Ohio, which resulted in a photo shoot and feature story scheduled to publish in from four months to a year in Kit Car Builder Magazine.
And last March, Dave Firebaugh launched a new business, R&R Rods and Restoration in Wooster, Ohio.
In the racing pits on the Budweiser side of the track, Dean Harris, Mogadore, Ohio described his family legacy in terms of his firstborn son, Hunter, 2 ½, and his Porsche lime green 1951 Henry J. Kaiser-Frazier.
"They were big Gassers back in the day," said Dean Harris, adding his Henry J runs a 12.0 quarter mile. "I've had it since I was five, for 40 years. My dad bought it for me.
"I picked out that color when I was seven," Dean Harris said. "I said, 'Daddy, that's the prettiest color ever.'"
For power, Dean Harris's Henry J sports an LT-1 from a Corvette.
"They run so nice," Dean Harris said. "They make it on the street all the time. This is a street car. I put about 500 miles on it a year. I trailered it here because it has open headers for fun runs. I pulled the exhaust off of it."
And that adds Gasser attitude!
Even though his father, Norman Harris, passed away in 2004 and never met Hunter, about a year ago, Dean Harris repeated the family tradition.
"When Hunter was one, I bought him (a Henry J) from a gentleman," Dean Harris said. "A guy came up to me at Summit Racing at Super Summit. The guy said he had it for sale at Niles, Ohio. I picked it up from him."
With ideas for Hunter's Henry J simmering in the back of Dean Harris's mind, the car waits in primer for a name, color and identity.
"They're something we'll have our whole lives," Dean Harris said. "We would never sell those cars."
We'll add photos of great folks we met on Friday at the Wanda AkzoNobel Blue Suede Cruise at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio, so please check back.

Ponting dismissed for four at WACA
Retiring Australian batsman Ricky Ponting has been dismissed for four early on day two of the third Test against South Africa at the WACA Ground.
Ponting was given a standing ovation after entering the fray with Australia in trouble at 3-34.
But the 37-year-old lasted just seven balls before being given out leg before wicket to paceman Vernon Philander.
Ponting reviewed the decision, but HawkEye predicted the ball would hit the top of middle stump.
The dismissal of Ponting left Australia in deep trouble at 5-43 in reply to South Africa's 225.
Michael Clarke's dismissal for five shortly after left Australia reeling at 6-45.
Proteas paceman Dale Steyn has picked up four wickets, while Philander has chipped in with two.

No, That Is Not Lincoln's Lost Emoticon
Jennifer 8. Lee of the New York Times spent 1,523 words debating whether her paper used the very first emoticon in 1862 when it printed the text of an Abraham Lincoln speech.
True, a typesetter transcribing the speech did follow a semicolon with a parenthesis — the "wink" emoticon we all pretend to hate and secretly use in IM all the time ;) . And it did come in a parenthetical reference to the crowd's "applause and laughter" inserted by the transcriber. But Bryan Benilous, the researcher at ProQuest who noted the anomaly, admits that it's the only occurrence he saw in hundreds of similar, contemporaneous passages. If it were an intentional usage, meant to be read with its modern sense, wouldn't someone elsehave picked it up? Let us give the final word on the notion that emoticons have a 147-year-long history: :-p

OEMs show systems with Intel MIC chips
1 Comment
SAN JOSE, Calif. – Six OEMs will show systems running a prototype version of Intel's Many Integrated Core architecture (MIC) at this week's International Supercomputer Conference. Intel will also report progress programming the highly parallel coprocessor eared for high performance computing clusters.
Colfax, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, SGI and Supermicro all will show systems using the prototype MIC chips. At least one research organization will share its experiences porting applications to the architecture using about 32 cores on a MIC chip.
The current chip, called Knights Ferry, is not intended as a commercial product, in part because it does not support double precision floating point operations. A future version, called Knights Corner and made in Intel's 22nm tri-gate process will support double precision, but Intel is not yet announcing when it will ship.
In addition, MIC currently relies on a mix of Intel proprietary programming tools and standards such as OpenMP. The Knights Corner product will also support the OpenCL API standard backed by archrival Advanced Micro Devices for its competing chips.
MIC represents Intel's implementation of a kind of many core, graphics-based processor targeting use as a general-purpose accelerator for highly parallel applications. It will compete with AMD's Radeon chips using OpenCL and Nvidia's graphics chips using its proprietary CUDA environment.
So far, Nvidia has a lead in this space which supports relatively few users buying chips at generally high prices and profit margins. For example, of 19 of the Top 500 supercomputers in the latest rankings that use graphics accelerators, 12 of them use Nvidia chips.
Intel claims it will have an advantage in this space because its MIC chips will use x86 cores. Users will be able to program them more easily than competing GPUs because they will use existing x86 server programming tools, Intel claims.
A technology executive from SGI said the majority of its users interested general-purpose graphics accelerators are interested in the relative ease of programming promised by the MIC architecture. However, he said the company is sees a range of performance characteristics across different applications with the current MIC chips.
The MIC "performance ranges dramatically based on applications from orders of magnitude improvements to incremental improvements" using the current chips that support only single-precision floating point operations, said Eng Lim Goh, chief technology officer at SGI.
"You end up with two kinds of customers, one highly satisfied with [AMD and Nvidia graphics] accelerators because despite the tedious porting process, their results are very good," Goh said.
"Others feel their time spent on porting [their apps to AMD and Nvidia chips] doesn't justify the performance and there is a huge part of this second group for whom MIC is useful—and ultimately some of the first group may want MIC, too," he said.
Goh showed one application that could tap into the many-core MIC chip using just a single line of additional Open MP code.
Goh and an Intel representative said the MIC architecture also promises to help supercomputer makers deliver exascale-class systems by about 2018, a target for which some are aiming. Today's fastest system is approaching 10 petaflops without the use of accelerators.
Intel has said its Knights Corner product will pack more than 50 x86 cores. Intel's road map for MIC promises even higher core counts in the future, said Goh.
An Intel executive will say at the supercomputing event that the company plans to use MIC to help deliver some of the first exascale-class systems.

Newly signed Celtics guard Jason Terry has already pledged his allegiance to the organization – in ink.
Terry got a tattoo of the NBA's Larry O'Brien Trophy on his arm in the offseason before the Dallas Mavericks won their 2010-11 NBA title. He's done it again, this time adding the Celtics' leprechaun mascot and the O'Brien Trophy, he posted in a photo on his Twitter account, ProBasketballTalk pointed out.
The tattoo is looked at as Terry calling his shot. Without the help of the veteran guard last season, the Boston Celtics pushed the Miami Heat to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals. With the additions of Terry and Courtney Lee, Boston will attempt to take another shot.
It will do so without Ray Allen, a key cog in the team's "Big Three." But Rajon Rondo, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce remain on the roster, and forwards Jeff Green and Chris Wilcox will return to the court after both sat out with heart ailments last season.
Boston could make a serious push for the title next season, and if it does pull out a finals win, there's no telling what version of the O'Brien Trophy Terry would add next.
