All brands will contain some amount of the extract from the actual fruit, but the amount of the active substance can vary a lot. There are plenty of fly-by-night products around(pretty much all of the ones in local stores) that only offer a very subpar purity. Often times such supplements(like ones sold at WalMart) only contain 20 or less HCA- even when they are marked as higher(this was the conclusion of a recent study). Such low-grade products(like the ones from GNC usually) are basically scams, replete with fillers and additives and dont do much to give you the true benefits of the natural extract.

Shorts / Robert Reich Explains the Credit Downgrade
It's as scary as A, B, C.
Robert Reich Explains the Credit Downgrade
By Dan Gurewitch and Pat Cassels
ROBERT REICH enters a white void. He stands to the side of FRAME throughout the video, as simple doodles and animations pop up relating to what he's saying. ROBERT REICH Hello, I'm Robert Reich, former US Secretary of Labor. We all know about Standard & Poor's recent downgrading of the United States' credit rating. Today, I'd like to explain what these downgrades actually mean for the country. CUT TO WIDE. A column listing the S&P CREDIT RATINGS in descending order appears on one side of the frame. When mentioned, a rating is highlighted or otherwise emphasized. ROBERT REICH Now that our rating has dropped from AAA to AA+, you can expect higher interest rates and higher costs for home loans. "Up" arrows rise from dollar signs and suburban houses. ROBERT REICH Should we be downgraded to the next rating, AA, not only will the value of the dollar likely drop as much as 10%... A dollar bill slides down a stock market chart. ROBERT REICH ...but the White House doomsday phone will be powered by Boost Mobile. Obama picks up cell phone. It makes the Boost "brp!" noise. The entire scene turns into a MUSHROOM CLOUD. ROBERT REICH At AA-, every Bonefish Grill in the nation will become a Red Lobster. A fancy Bonefish Grill. POOF! It's now a Red Lobster. ROBERT REICH This brings us to A+. (beat; then, business-like) Sorry, America, we won't be going to Busch Gardens this year. Instead, we'll be doing a daytrip to the Anthracite Coal Museum. No complaining. A cone of cotton candy MORPHS into a pick axe. ROBERT REICH At A, Canada and Mexico will become so embarrassed by America they'll start telling their friends they're separated by an ocean. Between Canada and Mexico, the US SINKS and is replaced by the words "ATLICIFANTIC SEA." ROBERT REICH Should we be downgraded to A-, America will need to swallow its pride and move back into England's house. Also, all Red Lobsters will become Long John Silver's. POV from inside a front door. It opens, REVEALING a sheepish-looking UNCLE SAM holding a box of stuff. Then, POOF - Red Lobster becomes a Long John Silver's. ROBERT REICH At the BBB+ rating, John Boehner's tan will be reposessed. A large cartoon frame with a REAL portrait photo of Boehner's overly-tan face. His skin tone abruptly lightens to FREAKISHLY PALE. ROBERT REICH The BBB rating will cause our National Anthem to become the sound of a single coin rattling in a tin cup. Reich puts his hand over his heart. SFX: 3 seconds of a tin coin rattling in a hollow metal cup. ROBERT REICH Also, our flag will have to choose between stars and stripes, and Long John Silver's are now Arthur Treacher's. Two flags: one just stars, the other just stripes. A Red Lobster (POOF!) becomes an Arthur Treacher's. ROBERT REICH At BBB-, things will be so bad that the American people will collectively forget the meaning of the thumbs-up gesture. Two large THUMBS UP blow away like eroding sand as a cartoon MAN runs after them, arms outstretched. ROBERT REICH At BB+, Chinese President Hu Jintao will present the state of New Hampshire to his wife as a half-birthday present. (beat) At BB she'll return it and buy a Slap Chop instead. A fleet of choppers air-lifts the cutout state of New Hampshire, which has a bow on top of it. The choppers place the state down and fly away. BEAT. An enormous Slap Chop slams down and slices the land. ROBERT REICH And Arthur Treacher's is now Benny's Chowdah Shack, run by Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke. POOF! Treacher's becomes a dilapidated fish stand. A sign above the stand reads "Benny's Chowdah Shack," and below that: "We're not 'clam-fisted' about our shrimp!" ZOOM IN to the owner: it's Ben Bernanke (Photoshopped) in a paper hat. ROBERT REICH At BB- John Travolta from Phenomenon will lose his telekenetic powers. The actual PHENOMENON poster. A cartoon "T" is tacked over the "N," changing the title to "PHENOMENOT." ROBERT REICH Finally, should the US be downgraded to the B+ rating, Standard and Poor's would upgrade Osama bin Laden back to "alive." Like a video in reverse, Osama bin Laden is sucked from the ocean onto a ship's deck. He lands on his feet, smiles, and triumphantly shakes clasped hands beside his head. ROBERT REICH The answer is simple: in the short-term, we need jobs and growth, in order to deal with the long-term problem of our national debt.  So please: don't cut public spending now.  No one wants Ben Bernanke making clam chowder. An O.S. hand gives Reich a cup of clam chowder. He tastes it. ROBERT REICH Gross. END.

DoD Military Spouse Employment Partnership Reaches Milestone
DoD News, Defense Media Activity
WASHINGTON, Feb. 29, 2016 - The Defense Department today announced that the Military Spouse Employment Partnership program has now partnered with 300 employers, according to officials from the DoD Spouse Education and Career Opportunities Office.
The program, launched in June 2011 by Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joe Biden, is an employment and career partnership connecting military spouses to partner organizations and companies who have committed to recruit, hire, promote and retain military spouses in portable careers.
"This is such an exciting and important milestone for the program and for the thousands of military spouses around the world who search for meaningful employment and career opportunities," said Rosemary Williams, deputy assistant secretary of defense for military community and family policy.
"The Military Spouse Employment Partnership addresses the employment challenges facing military spouses while providing partner employers with access to a pool of highly qualified military spouses," she said.
The partnership includes corporations, small businesses and other organizations that post job openings on the Military Spouse Employment Partnership Career Portal, mentor military spouses and other employers, and provide employment data on military spouses hired, officials said.
"The talent of military spouses can strengthen the economy, military families, the Defense Department and the nation," said Eddy Mentzer, associate director of the family readiness policy for DoD's military community and family policy office. "Partnership companies and organizations have hired more than 90,000 military spouses."
The partnership is part of DoD's Spouse Education and Career Opportunities Program, which seeks to reduce the significant unemployment rate and wage gap currently experienced by military spouses.

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) By all measures, Missouri endured a disappointing football debut in the Southeastern Conference, slogging through a 5-7 season in 2012 that disrupted a seven-year streak of bowl games under Coach Gary Pinkel.
Off the field, Mizzou's SEC-driven success has been far more noticeable. On Tuesday, school officials announced an $8.3 million gift from Don and Audrey Walsworth of Marceline to be used to improve and expand Memorial Stadium and also build a new clubhouse for the men's and women's golf teams at a private course in Columbia.
The donation follows a $30 million gift from the Kansas City Sports Trust in June - the second largest private gift of any kind in school history - and a $6.4 million anonymous athletics contribution in December.
``We have to have the facilities to attract men and women of SEC caliber,'' said Walsworth, an MU graduate, CEO of a northern Missouri publishing company and former chairman of the university's Board of Curators. ``We have kind of a grace period right now, but we're going to have to step up.''
Two of the Walsworths' three children played golf for Mizzou. A third, Don Walsworth Jr., was a Pac-10 golf champion as a Stanford University senior.
The school plans to add 6,000 seats to its football stadium, which now holds 71,004 fans. Eight SEC stadiums hold more than 80,000, with Bryant-Denny Stadium at Alabama and Tennessee's Neyland Stadium topping 100,000.
Missouri envisions a total of $200 million of athletic facility upgrades, funded in part by $72 million of debt financing through 30-year revenue bonds. The school hopes to recoup its entire investment through the sale of additional premium seats and football luxury boxes.
Also on Tuesday, Missouri athletics director Mike Alden offered his first public comments on reports that men's basketball coach Frank Haith could be charged with committing NCAA violations while at Miami.
CBSSports.com has reported that Haith, who spent seven mostly middling years at Miami before his surprise hire by Alden in 2011, will face charges of unethical conduct by the NCAA.
Two former Miami assistant coaches have been told they will also face unethical conduct charges as part of a two-year NCAA inquiry, two people familiar with the situation have told The Associated Press. They spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because neither the NCAA nor Miami has released the expected notice of allegations.
Days before the report's anticipated release, the Miami investigation took a dramatic turn last week when NCAA President Mark Emmert announced that former NCAA investigators improperly collaborated with lawyers for disgraced Hurricane booster Nevin Shapiro, a convicted felon. Shapiro has claimed he provided cash, cars, prostitutes and other impermissible benefits to dozens of Miami football players and other athletes between 2002 and 2010 with the knowledge of multiple coaches and athletics employees.
Alden said he discussed his concerns with Emmert on Monday at a winter meeting of athletic directors on Marco Island, Fla., as well as with a group of peers from Arizona, Illinois, North Carolina and Syracuse while on a 12-day tour of Nike manufacturing facilities in southeast Asia.
``I've never seen anything like that before in my tenure in college athletics,'' he said. ``So, I certainly think it raises lots of questions. I appreciate the fact that the NCAA has come up and they're addressing it. We'll kind of have to see how that plays out.''
``There's a significant amount of concern nationally relative to the integrity of the process and transparency,'' Alden added, emphasizing the impact of the NCAA's self-inquiry could be felt far beyond Coral Gables and Columbia.

Kitchen. Saturday , December 22nd , 2018 - 05:29:00 AM
Modern houses have actually also gone through lots of changes to give you the ideal modern cooking area. Right here are simply a few of the crucial facets of contemporary kitchens.
Open floor plans - a modern kitchen design trend that has quickly gained popularity is an open floor plan. This creates a very social atmosphere, great for both entertaining and casual nights. The 'social kitchen' often features a large island, which provides space for preparing and cooking food as well as a surface for eating or simply helping the kids with homework!
When you take a modern-art centric approach, you will want to focus on clean lines. Clean lines are incredibly important to the modern art design. Kitchen designers will tell you that, if you want a modern arty 'feel' to your kitchen, you will want clean and straight lines. You want clean counters and clean walls. In this design, modern kitchen will be free of knick knacks or other decorations. Any counter top appliances, like a toaster, a coffee maker or a microwave, will match the kitchen's color scheme and either blend in to the walls and counter surrounding them or stand out starkly in contrast. These kitchens, according to modern designers, are free of wall decorations, flowers or other superfluous elements.
Minimal décor - modern kitchens are meant to be minimalist; the old saying 'less is more' holds true for contemporary kitchens. A few open shelves, a modern picture or painting for the wall, a small backsplash - all these design elements are simple and modern.
Typically, in a kitchen, there is little decoration. The most decoration will come from the color chosen for the cabinetry, furniture and appliances. Some choose to paint everything a single color. Others choose to paint the walls and cabinets a single color while choosing appliances and cookware that is painted in a sharply contrasting color. If your kitchen space is small, you can create the illusion of space by choosing a single color for your walls and appliances. If your kitchen is larger, you can create textures and a decorative feel by choosing contrasting colors.
Modern art is made up of everything from the last of the impressionist paintings to Andy Warhol's soup cans and everything that came between them. Something that got painted five minutes ago could be considered modern. Thankfully, when it comes to figuring out whether your chairs are modern chairs in your kitchen. There are just two criteria to keep in mind: are the chairs multi functional and are they artistic enough to be appreciated on their own while not serving any practical purpose? What does that mean?

Soldiers Work On Key Iraqi Road, Dam Projects
By Pfc. Paul J. Harris, USA
Special to American Forces Press Service
BALAD, Iraq, July 16, 2006 - Civil affairs soldiers are here working to ensure local Iraqis have the strong foundation needed to rebuild and sustain their government long after the coalition leaves Iraq.
Army Capt. Philip Zapien, civil affairs team leader for 3rd Battalion, 29th Field Artillery Regiment, 3rd Heavy Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Task Force Band of Brothers, finds himself wearing many different hats these days. The majority of his civil affairs team has been tasked to help another unit, leaving Zapien with just a couple of soldiers to complete missions.
Though short-staffed, Zapien is determined to see some of the more crucial projects completed before he returns to the U.S. One of the big areas of concern is the quality of roads around Logistical Support Area Anaconda. The roads are riddled with potholes, making them easy targets for insurgents to place improvised explosive devices.
Not only is Zapien concerned for the Iraqi and coalition forces' security, but he also believes safer roads will allow more traffic to flow, increasing commerce and help the local economy.
Lt. Col. Jeffrey Vuono, commander of 3rd Battalion, 29th Field Artillery, who is on his third deployment to Iraq, hopes to see a system similar to the U.S. interstate network that could help in the fight against roadside bombs.
"I don't want to start a project that is only going to be good for two years," Vuono said. "I want a project that is going to be here for five, six, seven years."
The first task is to take away the median in the middle, Vuono said. Reducing vegetation on the side of the road increases visibility of an IED. Roads like those in the states have a significant asphalt base, so it takes more effort to put an explosive device in the road.
When Americans get in their cars to go to work, they expect to get from point A to point B safely. The soldiers of 3-29 FA and their civil affairs counterparts are trying to provide Iraqis that same security, Vuono said.
In addition to building up the roads, Zapien is also excited about a dam project on the Tigris River near the village of Bakir. The dam will improve water flow into the water treatment facility in Bakir, reducing the amount of sand that collects in the facility, Zapien said. This will increase the production of fresh water, enabling the facility to serve not only Bakir, but surrounding villages as well.
The 3-29th FA will spend about $10 million on reconstruction projects during the unit's year-long deployment in Iraq.

This was originally a comment on a post over at Mormon Stories.
By now you've probably heard of a new Anti-Mormon DVD about to be released. Just in time (as apparently is usual) for General Conference. It's called "The Search For Truth" and is packaged to resemble Church videos. You can find the Foundation for Apologetics and Research's response to it here.
The purpose of this video, the disingenuous nature of the distribution (the "fake" LDS packaging, the leaving of it on cars parked on private property and the leaving of it on doors like junk mail) deeply offend and anger me. If I find one (doubtful because, thankfully, Canada seems to have a smaller, less vociferous population of antis) I think I shall take great pleasure in smashing it.
You are welcome to discuss your religion with me. You are welcome to discuss my religion with me. You are not welcome to sneak around like a thief and leave your ugly thoughts of what you <i>think</i> I believe lying around, disguised as something coming from a source I would trust.
If you're not Mormon or you've left the church that's your choice and your path. Please allow me the same freedom you seek for yourself, to believe as I feel directed by God.
And at least have the strength of character to do what you feel you have to do up front. I have more respect for the guy who dressed up like a devil (red face paint, pitchfork and all) and stood outside the Hill Cumorah Pageant than I do those who seek to tear down the faith of others but evidently cannot stand up for their own.

Laursen, Keld, Valentina Meliciani (København, 1999)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper introduces inter-sectoral technology-based linkages (or technological spillovers) in a empirical model of international market share dynamics. The Pavitt taxonomy is applied as a yardstick for interpreting the empirical results. In accordance with the criteria behind the taxonomy, we find upstream linkages to be more important for the determination of market shares in scale intensive and supplier dominated sectors, while downstream linkages are particularly important for specialised suppliers. We also find investment to be more important for scale intensive types of sectors, formal R&D for science based sectors, and costs for supplier dominated sectors. The results highlight that the relative importance of different sources of competitiveness differs across sectors and thus reconcile the differences in emphasis in relation to the role of technology in determining trade flows, between (a) a tradition that stresses the importance of knowledge developed in a particular sector, and (b) the so-called 'home market hypothesis', that points out how inter-sectoral linkages within a particular country determine trade flows from that country.

Over the last few weeks, there have been a plethora of leaks and rumors that have been visible through various lowdowns. After trying to keep things under wraps for quite a time now, Nokia has finally unveiled a new phablet named as the Nokia Lumia 1320. This revelation marks its presence at the Nokia World 2013 that is being held in Abu Dhabi. Dubbed as the Batman initially, the Nokia Lumia 1320 arrives at an unsubsidized price of $339.
This revelation arrives as a welcome addition after launching the mid-ranged Lumia 625 this year and the phablet will be available in orange, yellow, black and white flavors in the first half of the next year. The device features a 6.0-inch 720p IPS ClearBlack display and is powered by 1.7GHz dual-core Krait processor. Continue reading

Recent Ninja Tune signings Grasscut have an intriguing provenance, especially for a band that flit between the electronic and acoustic worlds with such little fanfare. This year's early single 'High Down' revealed musicians with a careful ear for texture and atmosphere, unsurprising when you consider that one half of the duo is Andrew Phillips, an award-winning soundtrack composer. Their debut album 1 Inch / ½ Mile is filled with miniature shifts in mood and tiny inflections that seem to signify a great deal, and appropriately enough the sheer variety of ideas and sounds on display betrays the influence of the pioneering work of the BBC's Radiophonic Workshop.
Nowhere is that debt more obvious than on second track 'Old Machines', which arrives immediately after the schizophrenic explosion of 'High Down'. It's a lovely five minutes of organic electroacoustica, backed by a tiny synthesised orchestra of carefully placed clicks, static pops and canned strings. The following song 'Meltwater' fits its name, its repetitive chiming arpeggios effortlessly evocative of the delicate patter of light rain on leaves. Marcus O'Dair's keyboards and double bass prove less obvious within the album's mazelike structure, but provide cyclical movements in the background of each song that give the entire thing a hypnotic, dreamlike feel.
For the most part Phillips' vocals sink so convincingly into Grasscut's music that they become a part of the backdrop themselves, merely another instrument with which to play. It's an enjoyable trick, leaving far more to the imagination than if his vocals were placed at the front of the mix. As an entire record this trait proves both an asset and a weakness; it's easy to let 1 Inch / ½ Mile slip by almost too pleasantly, leaving little but agreeable traces of its rural pleasures in its wake. But then that's perhaps the point: the album is written as an aural document of a psychogeographic trek across the southern UK's countryside, and is supposed to work as a whole entity. It does largely; everything here has an attractively coherent quality that binds it together, from the spoken word samples that pepper each track like the melancholy chatter of Max Richter's Songs From Before to the convincingly woody texture of its instrumentation. Despite its smooth flow, one particular moment stands out above all others. The muted opening to the 'The Tin Man' suddenly drops away to reveal the decaying voice of a woman singing into an ancient recording device, and the entire piece ebbs and flows beneath this spectral loop. It's haunting and affecting in equal measure, and demands repeat listens from the moment her voice emerges, delicate and sad and displaced in time.
Towards its tail end 1 Inch / ½ Mile becomes more chaotic, a little sketchy in places, perhaps reflecting the exhaustion of a long hike. Even then though, there are periods of loveliness peppered around – a calming oasis of choral voices at the end of the demented 'Muppet', the doomy lo-fi of '1946'. Throughout its length there are fragments of the sublime that rear their heads for brief moments, and hint at the heights Grasscut may yet reach next. It's certainly a soundtrack to something – perhaps far more than its creators intended – and is intensely visual in its make-up, though it's hard at times to shake the feeling that 1 Inch / ½ Mile would be far more complete with an accompanying film to make its intent more explicit. Whilst a bold experiment and impressive in both concept and scope, there's an occasional lack of focus on here that proves distracting at times.

For a vast majority of seniors who volunteer, their community service helps define who they are. According to research conducted for the Home Instead Senior Care® network, nearly 100 percent of North American senior volunteers say that, when compared to other things they do in their lives, volunteering is important. One in five senior volunteers says it is the most important thing they do.
For more information about senior volunteering, explore the following resources.
Give-Back Program
The "Give-Back" program is a series of activity resource sheets for caregivers and care community activity professionals who are trying to help keep even frail and isolated seniors engaged and provide them opportunities to help others. Some projects can be adopted by an individual; others are ideal for group projects or as a meaningful activity with friends.

10 sporting events you have to see live
Oh, stop complaining.
Yes, it's a pain to score tickets, the parking and concessions fees are mafia-like and mooing your way through the shuffling crowds is horrible.
But, like the Grand Canyon, Himalayas or supermodels, the full majesty of some sporting events can be appreciated only when you're standing in their presence.
The drama and spectacle that surrounds these events matters just as much as who wins and loses.
10. Phoenix Open, Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
When you think of the world's most prestigious golf tournaments, you don't think of the Phoenix Open.
Which is precisely why this one has turned into the rowdiest tournament on the PGA Tour, a tourney at which golf's normally polite fans behave more like they're at an NFL football game. For proof, watch this.
Event vets like to set up in the Birds Nest, a beer-fueled party zone that has featured music from the Goo Goo Dolls, Will.i.am and 1980s cover bands and where muffled "golf claps" give way to demands for encores and more action.
Phoenix Open, TPC Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Ariz., United States; January 28-February 3, 2013; tickets here
9. Melbourne Cup, Melbourne, Australia
Known as "the race that stops a nation," this Australian horse fest attracts some 110,000 people to suburban Flemington race track on the first Tuesday in November.
It's the world's richest two-mile handicap.
In Melbourne, it's almost as big as Christmas. Race day is an official public holiday.
It's also the country's biggest gambling day, with more than A$100 million ventured on the race.
"For a large proportion of Australians this is the only time they bet on horses and for many it is the only time they gamble at all," according to Australia's Responsible Gambling Advocacy Centre.
What you'll see beyond the thousands of hopeful punters clutching their gambling tickets: women in big hats and fancy dresses, men in suits (tacky, classy, every style in between), plenty of hard-galloping thoroughbreds and quite a lot of beer and champagne.
Elaborate flower displays and "Fashion on the Field" are also important parts of the event, with generous prizes going to best-dressed men and women.
Read more about the Melbourne Cup here.
Flemington Racecourse, Melbourne Cup, Melbourne, Australia; November 6, 2012; tickets here
8. Euro 2012, Poland and Ukraine
For Europeans, this football tournament is arguably as important as the World Cup -- complete with just as many stars (Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, etc.) and international powers such as Germany, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.
It's also just as big a party. Exhibit A: Ireland made the cut this year.
But the action in the stands is the most fun.
With the ceaseless chanting and singing, rival fan bases are as entertaining as the players, whose goal celebrations in recent years have become increasingly creative and amusing.
It's possible to rent a car and tour all eight venues. Or set up HQ in Kiev, where the final will be played.
Euro 2012, various cities, Poland and Ukraine; June 8-July 1, 2012; tickets here
7. Hong Kong Sevens, Hong Kong, China
It's the biggest tournament in the world for the rugby sevens series. It's also Hong Kong's biggest sporting event of the year.
Finding a ticket through official channels to this epic weekend tourney is tough, but we've never met anyone who with a little effort hasn't been able to get in. (Hang around outside the stadium and you're bound to make friends.)
If you can handle it, the best spot is the 40,000-seat stadium's South Stand. Here, fans dress up like fictitious or real-life characters -- SpongeBob, recently disgraced public figures, etc. -- and dance and drink in the aisles while having one hell of a party.
The rugby is also pretty good, thanks to a new format introduced in 2012 that allows for much tighter contests.
Matches come fast and furious. The fourteen-minute games (two seven-minute halves) speed by with a verve and intensity that captures the imagination of even the most novice fan.
Hong Kong Sevens, Hong Kong, China; last weekend in March; tickets here
6. F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Abu Dhabi, U.A.E.
What do you get when you stage a Formula One race in an area with lots of money and a passion for speed?
A futuristic track, sold-out crowds, post-race concerts and the first place in the world to watch a floodlit, day-to-night F1 race.
The Grand Prix came to Abu Dhabi only in 2009, and the novelty definitely hasn't worn off for the Grad Prix circuit's infamous party crowd. Temporary clubs like Amber Lounge tend to attract A-listers (if you aren't even a B-lister, you'll have to finesse your way in), but hotel lounges are well oiled for the grandstand crowds.
Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Abu Dhabi, U.A.E.; November 2-4, 2012; tickets here
If Abu Dhabi is too far to go, the Singapore night race is also spectacular.
Formula One races under lights are impressive, as are the associated concerts and activities staged around the event. The highlight is the sight and sound of the cars streaking through the incredible city circuit.
Singapore Grand Prix; September 21-23; tickets and info here
5. Four Hills Tournament, Germany and Austria
If there's one thing Germans love more than beer and football, it's ski jumping. Seriously, check it out here.
The biggest ski-jumping party -- and one of the most watched ski events on European television -- is the Four Hills Tournament, which takes place over four different courses in Germany and Austria in late December and early January.
The competition -- which famously revolves around New Year's parties -- starts in the German town of Oberstdorf, then moves to Garmisch-Partenkirchen in Germany and Innsbruck and Bischofshofen in Austria.
Crowds numbering in the tens of thousands follow the excitement, packing the slopes by day and area clubs and restaurants by night.
A wealth of German and Austrian jumpers, as well as an atypical (for ski jumping) "knock-out" system adds to the drama.
Four Hills Tournament, various sites in Germany and Austria; December 29-January 6, 2012-2013; tickets here
4. 2014 World Cup, Brazil
It's the world's greatest soccer tournament, held in a land with the world's coolest people. So, kind of a big deal.
Cultural implications are vuvuzelan in scale, as throngs from rival nations around the world swarm together to ... well, no one is ever quite sure what will happen in the stands or the after-parties. The spontaneity of a mammoth world frenemies party is as intoxicating as the games in which, to quote American sportswriter Bill Simmons, "Everything means something."
For 2014, matches will be held in twelve cities. Sao Paulo is the site of the opening match. A sleepy little coastal town called Rio de Janeiro hosts the final.
For a preview, you can check out Brazil a year early for the Confederations Cup, an eight-team tournament staged in four cities in June 2013.
2014 World Cup, various cities, Brazil; June 12-July 13, 2014
3. El Superclasico, Buenos Aires, Argentina
No one does passion like South America.
So when cross-town football teams Boca Juniors and River Plate -- the most popular and successful teams in the country -- square off in Buenos Aires, it's the most fierce rivalry in all of sport (the Old Firm game between Celtic and Rangers in Scotland is a close second).
There's name-calling, chanting, singing, dancing, eating, drinking, fireworks, streamers, banners, fights … and then the games start.
Boca Juniors vs. River Plate, Buenos Aires; next date unknown
2. All-Ireland Hurling Final, Dublin, Ireland
Each September, 81,000 people pack into Dublin's Croke Park to cheer on participants in the culminating match of a provincial hurling championship series between the best teams in Ireland.
It's one of the biggest sporting events in the country, with a history of gambling that "dates back to antiquity."
Don't worry if you don't know what's going on. You'll figure out all you need to know about the fastest and oldest field game in the world and the pursuit of the trophy -- the magnificently named Liam McCarthy Cup -- from the cheering and anguish of fans.
Many in attendance roll in on a wave of Guinness and poteen from the Irish provinces with strong attachments to competing teams -- meaning you just might find the "real Ireland" without leaving the bleachers.
Two or three onlookers have been known to gather in local pubs after the match to drown their sorrows or celebrate their wins.
All-Ireland Hurling Final, Croke Park, Dublin, Ireland; September 9, 2012; tickets here
1. 2012 Summer Olympics, London, England
Call it what you want: a sports fan's paradise. A competition for national pride. Sixteen days of rain.
Bottom line, it'll be the biggest party the United Kingdom has ever seen, replete with the world's most popular games -- basketball, football, team handball (!) -- celeb-studded crowds and pubs packed with visitors from 205 competing nations.
The main press center alone will constitute a small town, with more than 20,000 credentialed media descending from around the globe.
The city is expecting some five million visitors for the Games, a large majority of which will be held in the Old Park in Stratford in East London.
To the athletes it might be all about the games. For the rest of us, it means the world.

These are the kind of games that may come back to haunt you in the later part of the season. Games that you would expect a team to play better in, and the opposite result takes place. That's what I like about the game of baseball, it's not as easy to predict as you think it would be. What I don't like is that the Phils ended up on the short end of the stick again.
The Phillies have now lost games against NL East teams that you would expect them to win against. The Phillies dropped some games against the two worst teams in the NL East. The Nationals are on the bottom of the division at 24-31 and the Mets are near the Nationals at a record of 25-30.
How do the Phillies struggle against two of the teams that they should, on paper, be winning against?
Roy Oswalt pitched a great game against the Nationals, and it appears that John Lannan also pitched a great game for the Nationals against the best team in baseball at the time. Lannan had never beat the Phillies in the last 10 starts against them. The Phillies just could not get the hits when they needed them. That is their problem, they cannot get runs when they need them.
The Phillies offense is back to being suspect. The team is almost at the middle of the MLB in every category of batting. Consider these stats and keep in mind that there are 30 teams in the MLB, here is where the Phillies rank in offense.
|Runs - 228
|Rank- 17th
|Batting Average – .250
|Rank - 18th
|On Base Percentage – .317
|Rank - 18th
|Slugging Percentage – .379
|Rank – 21st
It's off to Pittsburgh for the weekend, and again the Phillies are playing a team that is below .500 at 26-28. The Pirates are like the Nationals and Mets, they aren't on anyone's list to make the playoffs, but they still play their hearts out every game.
Let's see if the Phillies can start doing the same, Cole Hamels is looking for his 8th win of the season on Friday night in Pittsburgh.

Winter Adventure 101
Julia LeConte
Lifestyle Magazine – September 11, 2009
When five Siberian huskies hear another team of sled dogs off in the distance, they go nuts. (With a heightened sense of hearing, they can sense them before you do.) They're not huge dogs, but incredibly strong – the weight of two adult humans can bounce along behind them like wedding cans on an old Chevy. And what's the cause for excitement? To mate? To fight? The sheer joy of meeting another bunch of canines? As our musher Ed Schmidt explains to us, it's to establish a pecking order. His team of dogs already has leaders and followers. But when they mix up with other teams, it gets confusing. It's dogsledding that brought my fellow traveller and me to the great outdoors in the first place. Like many foreigners visiting our native land, the idea of mushing behind a pack of huskies seemed acutely Canadian to my Irish companion — something not to be missed if one was only here for a single (albeit long) Canadian winter. And so I found myself cautiously looking forward to a three-night, three-day stay with Voyageur Quest, a tripping company based 3 ½ hours north of Toronto near the town of South River, on the doorstep of Algonquin Provincial Park. Though I fretted about the dark cold that awaited us at 10 p.m. in a frigid log cabin with no electricity, my fears were quickly assuaged when we pulled up to a large, cozy retreat, windows glowing in the pitch black thanks to the fire roaring in the cabin's hefty hearth. The log cabin (perhaps lodge is the better word) served as headquarters for most of our vacation, and as such was absolutely paramount to our enjoyment. We were cheerfully greeted by our fellow trippers — five vacationers from the Netherlands who swiftly handed us each a beer. (They drank Canadian, while we had brought Heineken.) We spent the first couple of days with our Dutch companions, learning (and for me, the lone Canuck, re-learning) favourite Canadian outdoor pastimes. Chapter 1: Skiing Day 1 started with breakfast and a quick cross-country ski lesson. One of our two guides, Matt Rothwell, instilled enough basics to get the group through a day's worth of skiing. For someone who just recently picked up the sport, he had a knack for teaching. "I originally made fun of my mom, dad and sisters whenever they went out. I thought 'that just looks like work,' and they're big, unwieldy skis," he says. "I definitely learned the err of my ways." We followed a quick zip through some woods with a long ski over beautiful lakes in the afternoon, and a trickier, hillier trail ski to finish off the day. Our group was a mix of intermediate and first-time skiers, but sticking together while enjoying a workout proved easy.

WOW! Well...I have argued with myself ALL day trying to decide and cut down the "teasers", but I cannot come to an agreement with myself. So...here's a mother-load of pictures from the FABULOUS vineyard wedding on Saturday. Despite being pretty hot and sticky, it was an AMAZING day. Pretty much a photographer's dream wedding weather and scenery...oh, and also a super sexy couple! Al and Lacey are such characters and their love for each other and happiness of the day really made the photography a breeze.
I have to say, I really took a liking to Lacey's T-shirt...I, myself, have a wedding "Game Over" shirt. What can I say, great minds think alike. hehe
Lacey and Al did NOT see eachother before the ceremony so I thought it would be neat to put their pictures side-by-side.
This is Lacey and her super genuine, happy smile. I think that thing was plastered over her face all day. :)
Oooo....and Al was looking especially handsome.
Al is a total goofball. I think he has discovered the secret to winning over a girls heart. This face, right here. :)
Honestly, I cannot remember what triggered this reaction...but it was hysterical!
Such manly men...
Check it out...Matt took this shot and he captured Al with both feet off the ground. How cool is that!
Al is ready to take the big plunge. ...ok, I know, I know...that was cheesy.
This was my absolute favorite picture of the day... don't get me wrong, I took prettier pictures, but this one was unique to me. A guy holding his little girl...while watching another guy walk his little girl down the isle. You have to admit that's pure sweetness, right there!
Humm...what is he saying. Al...secrets don't make friends. haha!
Al set up this shot...nice one!
Oh how I wish I were talented enough to wear heels like that. :(
This was a remake of their "signature" shot from their e-session. Perfect!
Hummm...I wonder if the ring cost a fortune, too. haha :)
Ok, so this is a new one for me... and very creative. Lacey, and her super talented stationary skills, made an area for people to write their wish for her and Al's marriage. They just wrote it on a piece of stationary and dropped it into the wish bowl. ...
Matt came to me at one point during the reception and said, "hey, did you check out that wish on top of the wish bowl?" ....After spending a few minutes laughing, I just had to take a picture. I'm sure that was written by a guy.
...and they probably thought I wasn't looking... I told you I'm a creeper.
The wedding and reception was at Les Bourgeois Winery...which is a place you'd expect to see on a movie. So beautiful.
I'm sure Lacey and Al got a few bites from this shot. I left with a ginormous mesquito bite on my calf...which I itched and now looks fantasticly nasty. UG!
Hey Lacey and Al...hope you love your teasers! Matt and I had a really really really good time. Thanks for having us out.

Instead of starting a new thread I've just renamed this one.
Anyone know the exact time it starts? Not the telecast, but the actual ceremony.
Rest In Peace Craigos
Think it starts around 10pm Australian time and finishes about six months after that.
I'm looking forward to Chinese tanks "accidentally" running over 400 of the athletes...
Wish the bbc would shut up about the revolution, this is sport not a political slander contest.
Everyone wants to change the world, noone wants to change himself.
Lol. Commentary's been pretty good on our coverage with enough information provided about the history behind each performance, though I've always been a fan of Keith Quinn and John McBeth so that might have something to do with my reasoning.
Not usually a fan of opening ceremonies but this one's been amazing, loved every minute of it so far.
Always hated the people that do the "commentary" over whats happening, it's so painfully obvious they are just reading the info off a sheet of paper.
Overall just couldn't watch much of the opening ceremony, watched for 5 minutes, turned it off for 5 minutes, then went back to it for another 5 minutes, just couldn't get into it.
Want them to say "I can't see anything for this ****ing smog."
NZ team comes out wearing crocs. Embarrassing.
Slaves to a trend.
Pretty sure they've just exhausted the world's supply of fireworks.

I sold you and you sold me."

Child Shot with Arrow at Berkeley's Lawrence Hall of Science
An 8-year-old girl was shot in the leg with an arrow outside the Lawrence Hall of Science this morning, a University of California at Berkeley police captain said.
The girl, who was on a school trip at the science center, located at 1 Centennial Drive, was playing on a large sculpture of a whale in a courtyard when she was shot at about 10:10 a.m., police Capt. Stephen Roderick said.
"She was just climbing on the whale when, out of nowhere, an arrow went through her left leg," he said.
The girl was taken to a hospital, where the arrow was surgically removed.
"She's a trooper," Roderick said. "Her mother is with her and she's doing fine."
UC Berkeley investigators are trying to reconstruct the arrow's trajectory, a difficult task when "an arrow can travel 500 to 1,000 yards," Roderick said.
Police will be canvassing surrounding neighborhoods this evening to see if any residents had seen someone shooting arrows.
Anyone who might have information about the case is asked to call UC Berkeley police at (510) 642-6760.

A construction worker climbed down from the top floor of a burning building near downtown Houston and was plucked to safety moments before its collapse, video that captured the dramatic rescue shows.
Gusty winds turned what had been a small rooftop fire into a massive blaze that destroyed a large apartment complex under construction near downtown Houston, authorities said.
The Tuesday fire gutted the 396-unit, 4 1/2-acre Axis Apartments project in the city's hip Montrose district. The roof and the shell of the expansive structure collapsed as the flames turned it into a charred ruin.
All construction workers who had been in the high-rise building were accounted for, and no injuries were reported.
Fire officials said more than 200 emergency personnel battled the fire for 2 1/2 hours before bringing it under control.
The latest news from around North Texas.
Witnesses said the fire started about 12:30 p.m. Tuesday on the northeastern corner of the roof but spread rapidly through a breezeway.
"There was a report of a couple of guys working on the roof doing welding," Houston Fire Department Deputy Chief Greg Lewis said. "When our units arrived, there was a small fire and construction workers were attempting to put it out. There was sustained wind of 15 to 20 miles an hour, and it was a wind driven fire."
The cause of the fire is still under investigation, Fire Capt. Ruy Lozano said.
The department said the blaze that sent thick, black smoke billowing in to the sky prompted the evacuation of nearby buildings.
Firefighters also sprayed nearby houses and apartment buildings with water to prevent heat and embers from spreading the fire. No other buildings were damaged, but plastic fixtures melted on some nearby vehicles.

While Volkswagen is content to show off the Volkswagen Passat Alltrack as a production car in Tokyo, the German carmaking giant deigns us fit to get the Alltrack as a concept. What, nobody here likes a good longroof?
We doubt that the Subaru Outback/Audi Allroad market has a lot of money in it, but Volkswagen is showing at least a little faith in American wagon buyers by showing the Alltrack here, especially since it runs on trucker fuel.
Yes, this Volkswagen is a diesel, just like your dad's old Rabbit. In the Alltrack, the theoretical US buyer gets 140 horsepower out of the low-revving two liter, and 236 lb-ft of torque, hooked up to a VW-standard Doppelkupplungsgetriebe.
This phantom American would also get to enjoy a 1.2-inch suspension lift and VW's 4Motion Haldex four-wheel-drive. It sends 90% of the power to the front wheels in normal driving, but can send 100% to the rear if necessary.
These are the kinds of perks that come with the superior European-market Passat platform.
Coupled with new steel skid plates and hill descent programming, the Alltrack could be pretty good at getting owners out into the woods or up into the mountains.
That is, it would be good for theoretical owners. Volkswagen is still not sure if any of these potential buyers actually exist.

Each of our cushions is Made in USA by skilled sewers, not mass produced by machine. We're confident our cushions are worth every penny, because they are proven to last years longer.

In fact, our latex cushion is designed to recover from shipping, washing, squashing, or whatever adventures life has in store for it -just gently tug outwards on the corners of the cushion, then sit on it for awhile to help it return to its full size and original shape. Our generous 10"" ties are triple-stitched so they won't pop off when you scoot your seat. And we use durable lock-stitched seams, instead of chain-stitch seams (the string you pull to open a bag of dog food)."
Five Star Company

Not on the menu: Friendship
Lunch was on the menu, but that was about it.
For President Barack Obama, the meal he had with Mitt Romney at the White House on Thursday was another important post-election, post-partisan moment. For Romney, it was a chance to make sure his last impression on the political consciousness isn't all about the word "gifts."
Story Continued Below
They talked about "America's leadership in the world and the importance of maintaining that leadership position in the future," the White House said after the meeting, and they "pledged to stay in touch, particularly if opportunities to work together on shared interests arise in the future."
But like most Washington rituals, the former rivals' get-together was more symbolism, less substance.
( PHOTOS: Presidents and their defeated challengers meet)
And this one isn't even much of a ritual. There are warm memories of Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford becoming close friends, and Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush bonding while leading the Haiti relief effort, but those are the exceptions.
Running against a rival for the presidency isn't the best way to make a friend, or even an acquaintance. Most of them are lucky to do even marginally better than Herbert Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt, who sat in silence for their whole car ride to the 1932 inauguration, broken only by FDR admiring the construction work being done on the Commerce Department as they drove by.
For pairs of rivals like Obama and Romney that only include one president, the history of relationships is even worse.
"We never sat down for this kind of conversation," said former Vice President Walter Mondale, reflecting on the Thursday lunch and the end of his own race against Ronald Reagan.
After his concession call in 1984, they never even talked on the phone.
"No," Mondale said. "I would have been glad to, but no — and for years, I had plenty of time."
He's not the only one to miss out.
"There's a tradition of open amity, but very seldom do these folks actually get along," said former John Kerry senior adviser Bob Shrum. "It's a nice thing to do in terms of ratifying the democratic process. But it doesn't lead to anything."
Kerry and George W. Bush didn't even get as far as a meal in 2004, despite all the talk of wrapping their arms around each other.
"He was very gracious," Bush said, after the counting was finished in Ohio and Kerry conceded. "Laura and I wish Sen. Kerry and Teresa and their whole family all our best wishes."
"We had a good conversation, and we talked about the danger of division in our country, and the need, the desperate need for unity, for finding the common ground, coming together," Kerry said earlier that day on stage at Faneuil Hall in Boston. "Today, I hope that we can begin the healing."

Tony Conquest vs. Daniel Ammann on February 22nd on BoxNation
Tony Conquest will now headline a show at the The York Hall on Saturday 22nd February when he challenges for the Vacant Commonwealth Cruiserweight Championship against Aussie Daniel Ammann, live and exclusive on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch. 546).
It was announced that the Romford ace would face Ammann on the Copper Box Arena show on Saturday 15th February, but his fight has been rescheduled to take place at the home of London boxing.
Conquest has come back from his loss to Neil Dawson in December 2012 with two wins, a first round stoppage of David Vincena last September and then defeating Wadi Camacho to win on points.
He's looking to capture the Commonwealth belt in his first fight of the year before targeting a potential showdown against the British champion Jon Lewis Dickinson.
First he has to get past Ammann, from Stockton in New South Wales, who has won 29 out of 35 with one draw and holds the Australian title. Ammann was due to face Nathan Cleverly at the Copper Box Arena next month, but the Welshman will now feature on the Aintree show in his cruiserweight debut, and Conquest is looking forward to facing the rough and tough brawler.
"Me against Ammann will be a cracking fight for the fans at the York Hall and for the BoxNation viewers," Said Conquest.
"He's big and rough, likes a tear-up, and will be coming over here to win. He was confident enough to fly around the world to fight Cleverly and he'll be thinking that he's got the beating of me as well,"
"I've got my career back on track now and I'm looking to end the year with the British and Commonwealth belts around my waist. That's what's motivating me to beat Ammann, win the Commonwealth title then it could be Dickinson for the British later this year."
"It's down to me do a good job on the night against Ammann and show that I'm back and mean business."
Featuring on an action-packed undercard is fast super-featherweight talent Mitchell Smith who takes on Holyhead's Mark Evans over eight rounds. All-action Mitchell, who's unbeaten in seven, holds the Southern Area title but is looking to step up this year and has targeted the English and British titles.
It's a big year for super-middleweight prospect Tom Baker. The undefeated Chingford talent has been named as a face to watch this year and will be looking to move towards his first title challenge. He takes on experienced Welshman Jamie Ambler in a six-rounder.
Enfield brothers Chris and Andreas Evangelou both feature on the show, welterweight Chris taking on Trowbridge's Dan Carr over four rounds and light-heavyweight Andreas tackles Tichford's Sam Cozens over six.
Having his first fight for Queensberry will be Erith middleweight J.M Coyle who takes on experienced Birmingham man Max Maxwell over six rounds.
Lastly, unbeaten Dagenham super-featherweight Ediz Hussein faces Scotsman Michael Stupart in a four-rounder.
Tickets from £40 and £60 are available from Ticketmaster on 0844 844 0444.
