Bending and twisting lengths of wires with bare fingers, he fashioned a handheld grill – the kind that your grandmother might have used – for toasting dried cuttlefish, belacan or toast over a small charcoal stove (see main image).
It took him an entire day, but these days, the retired professor of electrical engineering is quite content to spend his time tinkering over small kitchen tools.
"It's quite simple to make but not easy to get it perfect," he tells me over an espresso at Podgy and the Banker in Desa Sri Hartamas, Kuala Lumpur, his face breaking out in a wide grin.
His book, Nonya Heritage Kitchen – Origins, Utensils And Recipes, is freshly minted. He flips to the page where he is hammering grilled jiuhu (cuttlefish) set over what looks like a structural steel I-beam.
"I remember seeing the Malay hawker making his sotong bakar outside Union School in Penang this way years ago; I thought I would try it as well," says the Penang-born Dr Ong Jin Teong, who now lives in Singapore.
Once a fixture in every home 50 years ago, the handheld grill, along with the charcoal stove, coconut grater and batu giling, has all but disappeared from our kitchens, made redundant in the machine age.
Now items in an antique shop or museum, these old fashioned kitchen tools have become objects of fascination for this baba in his investigation to find out if popular food, cooking techniques, ingredients and utensils interacted to create nonya or Peranakan cuisine. The Peranakan culture is the result of the intermarriage between Chinese – predominantly Hokkien – men and Malay women from the 15th century onwards.
The early Peranakan community sprung up in Malacca which had been colonised in turn by the Portuguese, Dutch and English since the 16th century.
"Nonya cuisine is an early example of fusion food, one that evolved from this integration of Malay and Hokkien food with the colonial cuisines of Portugal, the Netherlands and England," Ong tells in his book.
When Penang was founded by the English East India Company in 1786, a Peranakan community was established in George Town by Chinese settlers who came from Kedah and southern Thailand.
A similar community was established in Singapore when Raffles arrived in 1819 and Peranakan families from Malacca, Penang and the Indonesian Riau Islands moved to the new settlement because of the prospects of trade.
"Hence, the nonyas and babas of Malaya were predominantly centred in what was known as the British Straits Settlements made up of Singapore, Malacca and Penang."
In the preparation of their food, the nonyas use a large variety of utensils which originated from all over the world, particularly China and India.
"You could say that these utensils have shaped nonya cuisine literally and metaphorically," he says.
These include the batu giling grinding stone, "most probably of Indian origin"; the mortar and pestle (lesong), of indeterminate origin but he suggested South America as the Mayans and Aztecs have used it for more than six centuries; the stone mill (cheok bo), of Chinese and Indian origin; ladles made of coconut shells (senduk), of Malay origin; carved wooden moulds such as those for shaping angku and kuih bangkit, from China; claypots (blangah), from India; clippers for making kuih kapit (love letters) are "by intent and purposes identical to Dutch knieperties waffle irons"; and kuih bahulu pan could have a Portuguese origin although the Chinese have similar sponge cakes.
"The mould for making koay pai ti shells and the origin of the dish is less clear," he says. The fact that it is also known as Singapore popiah and Syonanto pie, seems to point to Singapore while Java kwei patti and kroket Tjanker suggest Java and Dutch Indonesia.
The roti jala spout, on the other hand, he says, is an entirely nonya invention. "A clever nonya, frustrated from drizzling batter from her fingers to make the lacy pancake, probably commissioned her local metalsmith to make her an innovative cup with many thin spouts."
On this last suggestion I am inclined to argue that roti jala is not considered part of the nonya repertoire but that of the Malay, with its roots in the many roti of Indian origin such as the string hoppers and rawa tosai.
The word "roti" in the name is a giveaway. Roti comes from the Sanskrit word "rotika" for bread.
The device for making string hoppers, however, is quite different from the one used for roti jala.
Before the tin or brass roti jala mould became widely available, the innovative cook devised a spout by punching holes in a used tin can – typically a condensed milk can popular at the time.
The closest to a roti jala mould that I have come across is a home device for making kataifi, a hair-like pastry popular in Greece and the Arabic world. Now kataifi is made with a machine to produce far more superior, fine strands.
To link the kataifi mould to the roti jala mould, however, is another story. But if the lesong can come from the Peruvian world, it's a far less far-fetched story for the roti jala mould to have arrived from the Arab world as Asia have been trading with them since the first millennium BC.
Closer to home – just for the fun of speculating – the jala mould has some resemblance to the kettle used for holding hot water for making coffee in a kopitiam. A cook could have very well imagined a smaller version for making roti jala.
When cornered about the nonya appropriation, Ong laughs. "It is merely a conjecture; it's a way to start conversations about our food origins," he says. "Go on and prove me wrong!"
Apart from the tools, food origins can also be traced from the names. The words koay (Chinese), kuih (Malay) and kue (Indonesian) all describe a kind of sticky sweetcake and comes from the original Chinese character which is made up of the character for "rice" and "fruit".
When you think about it, it is true that most kuihs are made of ground rice or sticky rice, or their flours. For examples, kuih talam, kuih koci, koay pai ti, angku kuih, chai kuih, and etc.
The fruit element is more difficult to explain for most of the kuih do not contain fruit. Could it be a symbolic reference to the colourful aspect of kuih or their sweet nature – like most fruits are?
Hence, it could also be inferred that all kuihs with the word "kuih" as an intrinsic part of the name, likely originate from the Chinese community.
This claim can further be boosted by considering the cooking method employed. If the kuih is made by steaming, the Chinese origin is reinforced as this method of cooking is most associated with the Chinese. If it is deep-fried, a Malay or Indian origin is possible.
But you get the picture: tracing the origin of our foods is a fascinating and complex exercise going back in time to unearth buried history.
The kitchen also proves to be a hotbed of innovation. While the wok is what he can't cook without, Ong is most proud of the coconut scrapper that he fashioned himself from a stick and a bottle cap.
"I saw one in a market in Phnom Penh. It was such a simple tool but it works! I made my own when I got back."
The other thing he has made is a wooden box for compressing pulut taitai that accommodates exactly 1kg of glutinous rice, and he made sure that his foot could fit the cover "should there be a need to stand on it!"
But fret not if you don't have a tailor-made pulut taitai mould. Ong has an ingenious idea: "Use two cake tins with detachable bases; you can use the second base as a cover to press down the steamed rice." Voilà.
The one kitchen gadget that he would like to reinvent is an automated system for making koay pai ti shells – "Making the shells manually is so time consuming even though I could make about 100 an hour!"
The most useful modern invention? "The Thermomix; it can be programmed to cook at a set temperature and time, and it is very good for making kaya and to tumis rempah."
In the book, he shares his family recipes, writing in great detail on how to replicate the original taste. His favourite recipes are koay pai ti, onde-onde and roti jala. "If I have to choose, it would be the pai ti," he says.
The pai ti holds a lot of good memories for him as his mother used to make pai ti for every birthday party.
"My mother's pai ti has a special filling with julienne of belly pork, chopped prawns and crab meat; in Singapore they make popiah and as an afterthought, buy pai ti shells to go with the popiah filling."
Among the recipes shared, some are in danger of disappearing, like the sandy sesargon snack and cheak bee soh, which looks in all intent, like a curry puff with a vegetable filling similar to that of pai ti.
"Cheak bee soh is no longer commercially made and hardly prepared at home, too. It was served during weddings along with other nonya kuihs in the old days. When the other kuihs cost five sen each, cheak bee soh cost 20 sen! That's because it is very difficult to make.
"The dough has to be mixed, boiled and kneaded when hot to make the skin. I learned to make it from my wife's aunt to whom I am indebted for the other kuih recipes as well. Hence, this book is dedicated to her."

I'm sorry, I'm new to networks and this is my first time here. I hope some one know how to help me out :-)
My router/modem is a DSL-2740B
I created a hostname (say example1.com). At my service provider I was able to create a DNS setting where I specified my routers IP address.
In my router I think I created a port forward (TCP port 8080 on both external and internal) with the ip address of a small "web server" (an Arduino module for home automation).
When I enter my hostname I get to see my router config page instead of my "Arduino page".
By entering the local IP from this Arduino I do get to see this page, indicating its there and working.
I'm happy with all the help I can get
Are you testing this on a computer external to your network? It won't work otherwise. Sorry I didn't think of this earlier.
If you are testing internally that explains why it is not working. If that is the case, your original configuration was probably correct all along.
Port forwarding will only work when you access your router from the Internet, not from your internal network. I hope it's as simple as that.
You say "when I enter my hostname". You need to enter:
Is this what you are doing?
And, as an aside, I would turn off Remote Management unless you really need it (in which case at least set it to a port other than 80). It's a huge security risk.
Hello ijack.
Thank you for taking the time to reply.
When I enter http://hostname:8080 I get the firefox "Unable to connect" page. Without the 8080 my router config page.
According to my router, the remote management setting was disabled.
Which port would you recommend me to use?
According to my service provider I can use any port with the exemption of port 25, 135-139 and 445.
The easiest port to use would be 80 as you wouldn't have to specify it when you accessed the page. Try that and see what happens when you forward port 80 on the router to port 80 on the internal web server.
The fact that port 8080 failed would seem to indicate that you got the port forwarding wrong. The other possibility is that the web server responds only to its own hostname. In that case the "example.com" entry that you create in DNS should exactly match the hostname of the computer running the web server. I'm puzzled that you get the router configuration page if you have disable Remote Management; you should get no response.
Another simple troubleshooting step is to try connecting with the dotted quad IP address.
Thank you for your quick reply! Much appreciated!
Its a shame I can not include screenshots
I changed it back to port 80 in my port forward settings. It says now in my router:
Name: Arduino
Address: 192.168.1.177
External Port: 80
Internal Port: 80
Protocol: TCP
The address "192.168.1.177" is the address from my Arduino and by entering this into my browser I get to see the correct Arduino page.
By entering example.com I get my router config page.
I also created a dynamic DNS (free account from D-Link).
So I now have: example.com (directing to router config)
And I have: example.dlinkddns.com which unfortunately also directs to my router config :-)
The IP config I used for example.dlinkddns.com is:
IP in DNS: 78.xx.xx.x90 (x = digit)
Browser IP Address: 78.xx.xx.x90
As I didn't knew what to specify, I specified twice the same ip address (found on whatismyip.com)
I'm basically following a tutorial on http://www.instructables.com/id/Ser... but I find it quit embarrassing that I'm not even able to follow these simple steps :-)
I forgot to mention that in the domain name DNS settings from my service provider I also specified 78.xx.xx.x90.
Hmm... when I think about it, do I maybe have to specify a different ip address somewhere?
Are you testing this on a computer external to your network? It won't work otherwise. Sorry I didn't think of this earlier.
If you are testing internally that explains why it is not working. If that is the case, your original configuration was probably correct all along.
Port forwarding will only work when you access your router from the Internet, not from your internal network. I hope it's as simple as that.
Yes I'm indeed testing this internally :-)
I will try it externally, I didn't think it would matter so I never mentioned it.
Thank you so much for your help!
I just came back from the library to test it on an external computer.
Guess what.... It works perfectly! :-)
Thanks again for all your help!

Introduction to Scuba
Learn to Scuba Dive Cozumel Excursion
Where better to learn to scuba dive than in Cozumel's warm, crystal-clear waters and incredible Barrier Reef? After arriving at the dive shop, you will meet your instructor and begin a small group class that will introduce you to the world of scuba diving.
After the instructor feels you have a good grasp on the basics, you will put on gear and practice off the beach. Thanks to the small size of your group, you will receive plenty of hands-on direction on this Cozumel excursion.
When everyone is feeling confident, your instructor will lead you to the boat and you will set off to the reef to try your hand at a one-tank dive with your instructor to a maximum of 40 feet.
Depending on the water conditions that day, your captain will take you to the best scuba location on the reef. You will be diving in the Marine Park.
Please Note: All participants must pay the captain a $2.50 US per person park admission fee on the day of the tour.
Participants with heart conditions, a current cold or sinus congestion, epilepsy, asthma, diabetes, a severe medical problem, who are or may be pregnant or who are under the influence of alcohol or drugs are not permitted to dive. Health restrictions apply and a waiver and medical statement is required to be filled out by all participants. Please look at the following example:
PADI Health Questionnaire
If you cannot pass the questionnaire, or do not have the required physician's statement, you will not be permitted to dive. Guests not able to dive will not be entitled to a refund so please look at the questionnaire BEFORE booking this tour. If you are taking medication, consult your doctor before participating in this program.
Reviewer: Nicole
This was definitely a bucket list for me! We were in a small group of 4 people. Our instructor was great! Very knowledgeable and patient with everyone! We had a photographer with us that we ended up with some breathtaking photos for memories to cherish. I highly recommend this excursion!
Reviewer: Ken Barkhuff
I believe the instructors name was Andrea? I've been home now for a couple of weeks. Regardless, I went with Aqua Safari at the Palace Hotel in Cozumel. Professional, smart, patient, easy to understand, knowledgeable with her trade and region, and so many other great characteristics. The dives were so fun and there was a ton of wildlife to see. She was so attentive, and really watched for our safety. She also did an amazing job pointing out fish we wouldn't have seen ourselves. My family and I are going back to Cozumel and we will definitely be doing this excursion again. Overall, this excursion is more than worth it!
Reviewer: Dan Corey
This was an excellent experience for a first time SCUBA dive. Cozumel has some great coral reefs and this dive proved to be full of adventure. I'd suggest having some snorkeling practice prior to trying SCUBA for the first time. Breathing under water is more mental than physical. If you can conquer breathing through a snorkel, you'll do great!
Reviewer: Mike
Vanessa the instructor really made the experience great. She was very knowledgeable. She helped my girlfriend really enjoy the experience since my girlfriend was a little nervous about diving.
Reviewer: Skruph
It is great to find a dive training shop when you are out of your home country that you can trust - this is one of those places. With PADI as the governing body over this shop you are confident that your safety is just as important as your experience. And dollar for dollar, well spent money and very reasonable. Greatest part is you get to see amazing fish and corral with very little effort.

BRUSSELS, Belgium – Ignoring U.S. objections, European Union finance ministers Tuesday approved new rules for taxing Internet purchases of software, music and other "virtual goods" from non-EU companies.
Spanish Finance Minister Rodrigo Rato, whose country holds the EU presidency, called the decision "an important step forward, particularly in bringing new technologies into the European economy."
"The European Union here is now at the cutting edge" of adapting its tax system to the information economy, he said.
But the action sets the stage for another potential trans-Atlantic trade rift.
The United States had pushed for a moratorium on sales tax on digital products until a "global consensus" could be reached.
In two years of lobbying, Washington won some changes in the EU draft, such as allowing non-EU companies to register in only one EU country, instead of all 15.
But last week the Bush administration said it still had "serious concerns" because in some cases, the EU directive would allow European companies to charge less tax than their U.S. competitors.
Deputy U.S. Treasury Secretary Kenneth Dam said the Bush administration will try to convince the EU that the rules are unworkable during talks at the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
If that fails, Washington may lodge a complaint at the World Trade Organization, he said.
Rato denied the law was discriminatory calling it "perfectly compatible with WTO rules."
More than 90 percent of the e-commerce in virtual goods today is between businesses, which are already covered by EU rules on sales taxes, known as value-added tax.
The new directive closes a loophole in Internet sales directly to consumers, which are expected to grow as more products become available and better Internet connections allow for faster downloads.
But the United States and even some European companies fear the cumbersome rules will stifle that growth.
Under the new law, European companies will pay only their home country's VAT. Non-EU companies will have to charge customers the rate where the customer lives, ranging from 15 percent in Luxembourg to 25 percent in Sweden.
The other 14 EU states were afraid non-EU companies would all set up for business in low-tax Luxembourg, emptying their tax base.
Another provision requires Internet distributors to charge the full VAT on educational products, while regular stores are allowed to offer discounts.
"The new proposal creates discrimination," said Claudio Murri, European representative for Texas-based Electronic Data Systems.
Rato conceded there were "difficulties," but said they had been overcome to allow finance ministers to approve the agreement at their regular monthly meeting Tuesday.
However, a technical change in the regulation's legal basis means it has to be referred back to the European Parliament for consultation, a process that could delay its implementation by months.
EU sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the finance ministers wanted to make sure the directive would require unanimity for passage because it involves taxes in one of the most sensitive areas of EU policy.

How to Treat an Infected Ear Piercing
Explore this Article Seeking Medical Treatment Using Home Remedies Protecting Your Ear Article Summary Video Questions & Answers Related Articles References
There are 16 references cited in this article, which can be found at the bottom of the page.
Ear piercings are a great way to express yourself, but sometimes they come with unwanted side effects, like an infection. If you think you have an ear infection, the first thing you should do is contact your doctor for advice. Keep the piercing clean at home to help promote a speedy recovery. Piercings in the cartilage of your ear are particularly prone to serious infection and disfiguring scars, so in these cases it is especially important to see your doctor immediately if you suspect an infection.[1] While the piercing is healing, make sure that you don't injure or irritate the site of the infection. In a few weeks, your ears should be back to normal.
Part 1
Seeking Medical Treatment
1Go to the doctor as soon as you suspect an infection. Serious complications can result from an untreated ear infection. If your ear is sore, red, or oozing pus, make an appointment with your primary care physician.[2]
- An infected ear piercing may be red or swollen around the site. It may feel sore, throbbing, or warm to the touch.
- Any discharge or pus from a piercing should be checked out by a doctor. The pus may be yellow or white in color.
- If you have a fever, see a doctor immediately. This is a much more serious sign of infection.
- Infections usually develop within 2-4 weeks after the initial piercing, although it is possible to develop an infection even years after getting your ears pierced.[3]
2Leave the piercing in the ear unless otherwise told by your doctor. Removing the piercing can interfere with healing or cause an abscess to form. Instead, leave the piercing in your ear until you see your doctor.[4]
- Avoid touching, twisting, or playing with the earring while it is still in your ear.
- Your doctor will tell you if you can leave the piercing in or not. If your doctor decides that you need to remove the piercing, they will remove it for you. Do not put earrings back into your ear until you have your doctor's approval.
3Apply an antibiotic cream to minor earlobe infections. Your doctor may prescribe a cream or recommend an over-the-counter brand. Apply this to the infected site according to your doctor's instructions.[5]
- Some over-the-counter ointments or creams you can use include Neosporin, bacitracin, or Polysporin.
4Take prescription pills for more serious infections. If you have a fever or if your infection is severe, your doctor may prescribe an oral antibiotic pill instead. Take the pill according to your doctor's instructions. Remember to take the full course of antibiotics, even if your infection seems to go away.[6]
- Pills are usually needed if you have a cartilage piercing that has become infected.
5Get an abscess drained if it has formed. An abscess is a wound with a large build-up of pus. If you have an abscess, your doctor will drain the wound. This is an outpatient procedure that may be done on the same day as your first visit.[7]
- Your doctor may apply a warm compress to your ear to drain the abscess or they may make an incision in the abscess.
6Undergo surgery to remove severe cartilage infections. Cartilage piercings are riskier than earlobe piercings. If your cartilage piercing becomes infected, see your doctor as soon as possible. Severe cartilage piercings may require surgical removal of the cartilage.[8]
- The cartilage is the thicker tissue in the upper portion of the outer ear, located above the earlobe.
Part 2
Using Home Remedies
1Wash your hands before handling the infected area. Your hands can spread dirt or bacteria that might worsen your infection. Before cleaning or treating the area, wash your hands using warm water and antibacterial soap.[9]
2Remove pus from around the ear with a cotton swab. Moisten the tip of the swab with antibacterial soap or a saline solution. Gently remove any liquid or soft pus with the swab. Do not remove any crust or scabs, however, as these will help your ear heal.[10].
- Throw the swab away when you are done. If both ears are infected, use a different swab for each ear.
3Clean the infected area with a saline solution. To make a saline solution, mix 1/2 teaspoon (3 grams) of salt into a 1 cup (237 ml) of warm water. Dab a sterile cotton ball or gauze into the solution and gently sweep it over both sides of the ear at the site of the piercing. Do this twice a day to keep the area clean.
- The area may sting slightly when you use the solution. It shouldn't be very painful, however. If it is, call your doctor.
- Avoid using rubbing alcohol or alcohol-based solutions on the infected area, as these can irritate the area and delay healing.[11]
- Gently pat the area dry afterwards with a paper towel, tissue, or cotton swab. Avoid using a towel, as it might irritate the ear.
- If both ears are infected, use a different swab or gauze for each ear.
4Apply a warm compress to your ear to help relieve pain. Soak a washcloth in warm water or a warm saline solution. Press the cloth over your ear for 3-4 minutes. Repeat as needed for pain relief throughout the day.[12]
- Afterwards, dry your ear gently by patting it down with a paper towel or tissue.
5Take an over-the-counter painkiller to manage the pain. Ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) can help reduce the pain temporarily. Take the medicine according to the instructions on the label of the bottle.[13]
Part 3
Protecting Your Ear
1Stop touching the ear or piercing unless necessary. If you are not cleaning the wound or removing the piercing, don't touch your ear. Avoid using clothing or devices too close to your infected ear as well.[14]
- Don't wear headphones until your infection heals.
- Avoid using a phone on the infected side of your head. If both ears are infected, put the phone on speakerphone to use it.
- If you have long hair, keep your hair up in a bun or ponytail so that it doesn't hang by your ears.
- Avoid sleeping on the infected ear if possible. Keep your bed sheets and pillow cases clean to avoid spreading the infection.
2Avoid swimming until both the piercing and the infection heal. Generally, you should not swim for 6 weeks after getting your piercing. If your piercing has become infected, wait until the infection has healed completely and the piercing itself has healed.[15]
3Wear hypoallergenic jewelry if you have a nickel sensitivity. In some cases, your doctor may diagnose you with a nickel allergy instead of an infection. In this case, start wearing earrings made out of sterling silver, gold, surgical steel, or another nickel-free material. These are less likely to cause a reaction.[16]
- Allergies may appear as dry, red, or itchy skin around the site of the piercing.
- Continuing to wear nickel jewelry if you have an allergy can increase your risk of reinfection.
Community Q&A
QuestionWhat do I do if my ear is the size of a golf ball, due to an infected earring hole?Community AnswerImmediately see your local practitioner or pediatrician, as they will be able to help you heal the infection.
QuestionCan a two year old piercing get infected?Community AnswerA piercing can get infected at any age, it doesn't matter how fresh or old it is. Follow the steps above to stop or prevent an ear infection at any stage.
QuestionIs it normal for the lobe to bleed?Community AnswerYes, remember it's going straight through your skin, you're dealing with an open wound here.
QuestionDo I have to take my earrings out when I go to sleep?Community AnswerNot if they are a new piercing, as you should leave them in continually for 6 to 8 weeks. After that, the holes should be better set, and you can sleep in them or not.
QuestionIs it hard to treat an infected piercing in the cartilage of my ear?Community AnswerAll you need is some epsom salt, which you can buy at any grocery store. Mix it with water and then soak your ear in it for a few minutes a couple of times per day. It will reduce the redness and swelling.
QuestionIs it normal to have sort-of-sore ear lobes when I move the earring a few days after the piercing?Community AnswerYou are supposed to have them in for six to eight weeks, so yes, it would be normal for the ear to be a bit sore if the earring was taken out.
QuestionShould I pop or squeeze the infected area?Community AnswerNo you should not. Use something for sensitive skin, like Sea Breeze to reduce the bumps and stop the redness. Use everyday for three days.
QuestionWhat should I do if my ear is infected and I have been having bad headaches?Community AnswerTreat the headaches with pain killers and the ear with topical disinfecting medicine. Ask a doctor for antibiotics and whether the two are related.
QuestionI just got my upper lobe piercing and I was wondering if slight pain is normal?Community AnswerYes it is normal. If there is still pain after three days, then it might be infected. If it gets worse, ask your family doctor and she/he well probably give you a cream or tablets to disinfect it.
QuestionWhat is the best way to clean the earrings themselves?Community AnswerPut them in hot water with salt or rubbing alcohol to clean them. Pick them out with tweezers rather than your fingers.

Chapter Three: A Short Digression On The Pig; or, Why Heaven Hates Ham
Hitchens discusses the prohibition on eating pigs ("porcophobia" as Hitchens calls it) in Judaism, also adopted by Islam.[7] Hitchens writes that this proscription is not just Biblical or dietary. He reports that even today, Muslim zealots demand that the Three Little Pigs, Miss Piggy, Piglet from Winnie-the-Pooh and other traditional pets and characters be "removed from the innocent gaze of their children."[8] Hitchens proposes that the prohibition against pork found in Semitic religions may be based in the proscription of human sacrifice, extended to pigs because of the similarities in appearance and flavor between pork and human flesh.[9]

JAMIE MURRAY wants to form an Olympic doubles dream team with his brother Andy this summer.
The London-based Scot is the only Grand Slam winner in his family after claiming the mixed doubles title at Wimbledon in 2007 with Jelena Jankovic.
And the brothers would qualify as Britain's No.1 pairing because Andy is ranked No.4 in the singles. Jamie, who is ranked No 33 in doubles, said: "I think we would both like to play.
"Playing in the Olympic Games in your own country would be great. To play with your own brother would be even more special. Not many people get the chance to do that.
"We have spoken about it. It would be nice to play some tournaments as a team first but we have played enough together in our lives to go out on court and perform well.
Limit "We have won two tournaments in the last year or so - and they were big tournaments."
The brothers won together in Valencia in November 2010 and in Tokyo in October last year.
The top 24 pairings on the rankings will qualify for the Olympics while eight wildcards will be awarded.
There is a limit of two teams per country with Colin Fleming and Ross Hutchins, Great Britain's current Davis Cup pairing, also in the running.
They reached the third round in Melbourne yesterday after demolishing Russian duo Alex Bogomolov Jr and Igor Kunitsyn 6-0 6-3. They will now face world No.1s Bob and Mike Bryan - who have won 76 tournaments including 11 Grand Slams - with the chance to reach the quarter-finals.
Andy Murray is determined his Australian Open chances will not be blown off course by Michael Llodra today after stating his intention to play the third-round clash on his terms.
World number 46 Llodra admitted following his win over Alex Bogomolov that his only chance of beating the No.4 was to stick with his attacking serve-andvolley game and hope Murray wilts under the pressure.
The Scot, whose 6-1 6-4 6-4 second-round win over Edouard Roger-Vasselin was a marked improvement on his struggles against Ryan Harrison in round one, is renowned as one of the game's best counter-punchers and the stage is set for a classic contrast in styles.
Murray has been criticised for occasionally being too passive, but he insisted there is more than one way to show aggression on the court. He said: "I think you want to be able to play the match on your terms. It's not about just going out and hitting the ball as hard as you can and trying to be aggressive.
"For me, playing closer to the baseline is a good sign as you are taking time away from the opponent. If you stand one or two metres further behind the baseline, you're giving them more time on the ball.
"Someone like Llodra, he comes forward all the time, which people might say is a very aggressive style of play, but you can be aggressive from the back of the court as well, like Nadal.
"There are many different ways of playing, it just has to be within your game style.
"Mine is by using a lot of variety. I feel like when I play closer to the baseline that's when I have my best results."

Historians will document for future generations our accomplishments and failures as a nation. While the most insightful comments of our past and present actions will not be able to be fully realized for many years to come, some short term thinkers are trying to write into history falsehoods and lies for lack of a better term. One of those people is none other than propagandist Michael Moore.
Moore has made a very good living disseminating information to the public that lacks candor. It began with his film Bowling for Columbine, which had promoted many mistruths to the American public. Moore's latest, Fahrenheit 9/11 is doing much the same but has much more problematic implications.
While most of the populace understands Moore's intent, the truth is that Fahrenheit 9/11 is a practice in deception and misdirection. The movie did very well both domestically and in foreign markets, but it is based on nothing more than one man's desire to remove a sitting president from power.
There are a couple of themes that I would like to discuss in regards to his cinematic exploration. With Moore popping into the Democratic National Convention and his media blitz tour, there are several arguments that he is using that are intellectually dishonest.
Moore's movie premise that President Bush is directly tied to the Saudi's via payments to the Carlyle Group in the amount of $1.4 billion. This claim has been rebuffed by Newsweek's Michael Isikoff who writes:
A cursory examination of the claim reveals some flaws in Moore's arithmetic—not to mention his logic. Moore derives the $1.4 billion figure from journalist Craig Unger's book, "House of Bush, House of Saud." Nearly 90 percent of that amount, $1.18 billion, comes from just one source: contracts in the early to mid-1990's that the Saudi Arabian government awarded to a U.S. defense contractor, BDM, for training the country's military and National Guard. What's the significance of BDM? The firm at the time was owned by the Carlyle Group, the powerhouse private-equity firm whose Asian-affiliate advisory board has included the president's father, George H.W. Bush.
Leave aside the tenuous six-degrees-of-separation nature of this "connection." The main problem with this figure, according to Carlyle spokesman Chris Ullman, is that former president Bush didn't join the Carlyle advisory board until April, 1998—five months after Carlyle had already sold BDM to another defense firm.
Most importantly, the movie fails to show any evidence that Bush White House actually has intervened in any way to promote the interests of the Carlyle Group.
One can easily see, the allegation sounds great, but is not backed up by any truth. This may work well with the black helicopter crowd, but one should be very skeptical of a movie which promotes itself as being truthful but misleads more often then it sticks to the facts.
Former President Bill Clinton also disputes Moore's claims about the reasoning behind the war in Iraq. In the June 28, 2004 issue of Time, Bill Clinton stated:
You know, I have repeatedly defended President Bush against the left on Iraq even though I think he should have waited until the U.N. inspections were over. I don't believe he went in there for oil. We didn't go in there for imperialist or financial reasons.
After 9/11, let's be fair here, if you had been president, you'd think, Well, this fellow bin Laden just turned these three airplanes full of fuel into weapons of mass destruction, right? Arguably they were super-powered chemical weapons. Think about it that way. So your sitting there as president, you're reeling in the aftermath of this, so yeah, you want to go get bin Laden and do Afghanistan and all that. But you also have to say, Well, my first responsibility is to try everything possible to make sure that this terrorist network and other terrorist networks cannot reach chemical and biological weapons or small amounts of fissile material. I've got to do that. That's why I supported the Iraq thing. There was a lot of stuff unaccounted for.
You couldn't responsibly ignore [the possibility that] a tyrant had these stocks. I never really thought he'd use them. What I was far more worried about was that he'd sell this stuff or give it away. Same thing I've always been worried about North Korea's nuclear and missile capacity. I don't expect North Korea to bomb South Korea, because they know that it would be the end of their country. But if you can't feed yourself, the temptation to sell this stuff is overwhelming. So that's why I thought Bush did the right thing to go back.
There you have one of the left's own defending our actions towards Iraq. After 9/11 happened, it would have been irresponsible for the current administration to ignore such a threat. While many reasonable people can argue this point, let's at least have an honest debate.
In his media blitz across the country, Michael Moore likes to ask his critics if they would send their child to Iraq to defend Fallujah. While I have yet to see anyone clearly answer him, I would like to answer his question. First of all, our military is a volunteer service. Each and every member of the armed forces over in Iraq is there because they offered their services to their country. These are not "children" as Moore claims, but adults who have bravely offered themselves to defend our country against all enemies both foreign and domestic. They are all making huge sacrifices so that we can all (including Moore), live in a free society. Instead of questioning their service, Moore should be thankful that we have such brave heroes willing to put their lives on the line.
Moore then claims that they are only there because the "Bush economy" is so bad that they have no other choice. Unless freedom and security are achieved, the economy will always be at the mercy of terrorist groups and regimes intent on the destruction of the West. This is a war that must be waged and won in order to maintain our current way of life. The American dream depends on our success and cannot allow the terrorists to dictate our way of life. If we stand down in the face of adversity, it only makes the enemy stronger.
Our country becomes safer by every step we take at dismantling terrorist groups and regimes that support them. One action alone is not going to bring down our enemy.
Another one of Moore's tricks is to make the president look foolish for being in the classroom for seven minutes on the morning of September 11th after learning of the second plane hitting the World Trade Center. That's right; Moore believes that those 420 seconds that the president waited before excusing himself were crucial and unacceptable.
Since bin Laden declared war on America back in 1996, what in the world is 420 seconds of time to let the President of the United States think about the full implications of what was happening going to matter? Whatever was going through his mind is something that only he knows. For Moore to second guess and ridicule him is pointless. Everything that needed to be done was done. There are not too many people who don't think that President Bush was a true leader following the 9/11 attacks. Moore is just looking for any way to make President Bush look less presidential. It doesn't work.
While there are many people who were against the war on Iraq, none have had the damaging impact that Michael Moore's propaganda has. Many people do not spend the time to fact check his work, nor should they have to. You can be against the war for many reasons, but to be so due to this movie is downright foolish. Moore should have more integrity than that when making his movies, at least to be honest and say that his movie is not factual. Between the lies and made up scenes, there seems to be no end to the mistruth in this movie. You can take any president and make him look foolish with soundclips and innuendo. But Moore's attempt to do so in such a dishonest way at a time where the future of this country depends on our victory borders on treason.
There are many valid reasons to criticize this president and his administration. However, it should be done with honesty and facts. Propaganda cannot be tolerated in such times. Can you imagine a movie like this one coming out during World War II, it seems inconceivable.
So while his movie has surpassed the $100 million mark, Moore can rest assured in one thing. The movie Jackass made $ 64 million in revenues, which just proves that Michael Moore is rising to twice the fool that those people were. It is time America treats him as such.Posted by Timothy Perry at August 2, 2004 10:36 AM

The undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns. - William Shakespeare.
Video - Day 5: Undiscovered Country
As I left Bella Coola the next morning, I wanted to take a side trip up to a lake and get a view of the sound via the Clayton Falls Creek road. Unfortunately, there was residual clouds and fog. In talking to the locals, I wouldn't see much, if anything. I decided to leave town and head up Heckman pass and explore the route to Chilko Lake if I could arrive there at a reasonable time. I wanted to do some exploring on some other roads if the weather allowed for it.
|End of the road in Bella Coola
The ride in the valley was beautiful and is paved for approximately 50 miles before giving way to gravel at the "Hill" to go back up to the pass on the Chilcotin Plateau. The weather began improving considerably the farther inland I traveled. I made a few stops, including the "big" rock at the Kettle Pond Trail. However, there was one road I wanted to ride if at all possible. Just before ascending the road up to the pass at the head of the Bella Coola valley, there is a road (the old Tote Road) to get to the trailhead that I've always wanted to hike (Hunlen Falls). I had no plans to hike to Hunlen Falls, which I understand takes about 6 hours or so, but rather to explore it for future trips. The road is rough and not maintained. As I entered the road, two things caught my attention. 1) There was a notice stating that the road is not maintained and that 4x4 vehicles are recommended 2) Visitors are advised to not hike during the late afternoon, evening hours due to heavy grizzly bear activity along the river during the salmon spawning season. After my experience on the West Harrison Lake road, I did not have any desire to attempt a 4x4 trail. However, I decided to ride a ways in to see what the road was like and find an appropriate turn around point. In fact, I was hoping that I may catch another glimpse of some bears. I rode in about 3 miles or so and decided to turn around. The road was "OK", but I figured that I was wasting time, especially if I wanted to make it to Chilko Lake that evening.
|Double track road through an old burn area
Eventually I pulled back out on to hwy 20 and headed up the hill to Heckman pass. At this point, the sun was partially exposed and the dark clouds seem to be dispersing. Once at the pass, I saw the turn off for the hiking/pack trail out to the Rainbow Range in Tweedsmuir park. In fact, at some point, I believe I entered the park, most likely at the bottom of the hill. I had passed this turn off for the Rainbow ridge the last couple of trips and this time I decided to see what the trailhead looked like and maybe read about the trail and such. Again, taking note for future excursions back there. Too my surprise, there was an old 2 track road that went farther back. In fact, this road appeared on my GPS and looked like it looped back to hwy 20. I said to myself, what the heck? I'm riding alone and no one is out here. Why not go explore more remote back country. The road, was wonderful as it made it ways through an old burn area and crossed many creeks and even a horse corral. It eventually looped back to the hwy as shown, but there was a problem. The road was hiden from hwy 20 and there was abig drainage ditch that I had to cross. I did a little exploring on foot and found a way to cross where it looked as if other off road vehicles and snowmobiles have gone. No problem. I stopped for a late lunch in Nimpo Lake. I had a homemade personal pizza and poured over my maps some more. I wanted to get over to Gwedat'sih campground at the north end of the lake. I found out, in talking to the locals, that it was closed due to lots of grizzly bear activity. No problem, I see that there is a road over to another campground (NU CHUGH BENIZ) further south along Chilko Lake.
|Time travel on the Chilcotin Plateau
I arrived in Tatla Lake after detouring over to One-Eyed lake and some other road near Kleena Kleene to get some gas. I was told that it was a rough road over to the other campground and that it would be long after dark when I arrived. However, there was lots of places to camp back there. I decided to go for it anyway and took off for the Chilko Lake.
|No camping... BEARS and more BEARS!!!
I took a side detour over to Tatlayoko lake. It was gorgeous and if I had any smarts, I would have camped there for the night. Instead, I turned around and went towards Chilko Lake. Sure enough, soon after the turn off, I see a provincial park notice stating that the campgrounds are closed due to bear activity. I wasn't too upset, because a few miles later, I came upon expansive views of Choelquoit Lake. I pulled off the road and climbed up the hill above the road. There were large rocks scattered about, in among the sagebrush. I sat on the ground, using one of the large rocks as a back rest for about an hour. I have never seen land like this. The mountains beyond the lake were green and lush. The landscape changed dramatically within 5 of miles. I was looking as glacier covered peaks from the comfort of a sage covered hillside.
|Choelquoit Lake an the surrounding country... WOW!!
|Click on this picture for a beautiful panorama
Eventually, I decided that I should be moving on. Any hopes of arriving at the campground farther south along Chilko Lake that evening were fading fast. I kept riding towards Chilko lake and came upon a handful of natives fishing for salmon. They convinced me to turn around. They repeated what I heard earlier… "The road is rough and I would arrive long after dark". I check my maps and attempted to ride along the Chilko river back to hwy 20, eventually camping at Bull Canyon. My plan was short lived as the road I was to take, was closed due to a slide. Darn it!!! I was shunned again. I was pretty tired by this time and started heading back to Tatla lake. I came across a turnoff to Cochin Lake. I see a beautiful campsite next to the lake. For the 2nd camp on the trip. I share a campground with others. I had a very relaxing dinner with the songs of Loons and a visit by a lone otter. It was the coldest night of the trip. I curled up in in my sleeping bag with my tent flap open with fantastic lake views. I fade off to sleep, my head filled with cobwebs and pleasant thoughts about the past couple of days.
|Another fantastic day comes to a close
Stay tuned for Day 6

Between topological strings and topological phases
November 2, 2016 - 11:00am
Jeffrey Teo
Topological phases in two and three dimensions can be theoretically constructed by coupled-wire models whose fundamental constituents are electronic channels along strings. On the other hand the collective topological phases support further fractionalized emergent quasi-string excitations or defects such as flux vortices. In this talk I will describe topological superconductors and Dirac (or Weyl) semimetals using coupled-wire models, and discuss the fractional behavior of emergent topological strings.

If you have the passion for FASHION then the ramp of Pune will have the same appeal for you as Paris!
The recently concluded 6th edition of the Pune Fashion Week presented by BVLGARI, was a two-day extravaganza that lived up to the expectations of fashion lovers like me.
Here are some fashion and beauty trends that I spotted. What makes them 'WoW' is that they can be flaunted in real life as well.
♡ Style Quotient
☆Designer: Pledging for the noble cause of supporting the education of a girl child, designer Priya Kataria Puri showcased an amazing collection called 'Pura Vida' in association with the NGO Smile Foundation.
☆The WoW elements: With effortless style, elegance and femininity incorporated in every silhouette, the new styles of maxi kaftans, off shoulder and cold shoulder pieces, jumpsuits, palazzos, dresses, tops, blouses and rompers were in pure Italian silk.
The colour palette was kept to warm earthen shades of burgundy, yellow, red, black, off-white, olive and leaf green.
☆Ramp to Real: This Indo-western line is ideal for the upcoming festive season, as it offers the scope to mix and match and play around with the ensemble.
☆Designer: All that Glitters from Kara by Designer Kanchan Kulkarni was a tribute to its Indian roots in western silhouettes.
☆The WoW elements: Like the name suggests, the collection is a blend of silks mixed with tulle and lace and fused with shimmer and beads to stay true to its name. The elegant colour palette of whites, golds and blacks have a minimalistic yet glamorous appeal.
☆Ramp to Real: Perfect as an evening party wear.
☆Designer: capsule collection "Ritz" by Designer Nitya Bajaj and "The Pink Mosque" by Designer Sharad Raghav were interesting creations.

Living up to the effortless glam quotient, the makeup was minimalistic, soft smoky eyes with defined eyeliner teamed up perfectly with rosy pouts in pink, peach, corals and reds.
☆What's next:

Goodbye, Peter Firmin
This is far more upsetting than Harlan Ellison's death - Peter Firmin (and his collaborator Oliver Postgate) made children's TV that was a huge part of my childhood.
The Clangers (sad whistling, and glooping from the Soup Dragon)
Pogles Wood (it took me years to work out that Tog was supposed to be a squirrel!)
Ivor the Engine (a sad song from the Grumbly and District Choral Society, with solo from Ivor)
Noggin the Nog (the Men of the Northlands sit by their log fire, and they tell a tale....)
Bagpuss (when Bagpuss goes to sleep, all his friends go to sleep too)
He also created, with Ivor Owen, Basil Brush.

Hello everyone!
Before anything, apologies if I will put this thread in wrong place, I just registered here in hope for finding assistance in overclocking on my spec.
As I've been informed from many sources, 3 vital components in my PC are overclock friendly, but still I am having certain problems with it, which I will present in a few moments.
My PC is kinda outdated, but I like it because its powerful enough to run everything I need without any problems, but I want to "unleash" it even more. :)
My spec is:
- QuadCore Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, 2400 MHz (9 x 267), which is titled as most overclock-friendly CPU from this generation (even with custom bigger cooler, temp. on idle keeps around 25 degrees Celsius)
- Gigabyte GA-P31-DS3L (also titled as overclock friendly, but I don't understand why is it making problems)
- Corsair Dominator CM2X1024-8500C5D 4 x 1GB (also very high-tech RAM for DDR2 tech and its time and also heard it can cover high voltage increases)
- other less important stuff (for now I won't touch GPU)
Problems are following:
When I change frequency in BIOS (those next to multiplier - sorry for not presenting real name, I wasn't in BIOS for a while), my system keeps resetting frequency to default or even changes to lower values than default (as I recall, numbers were around 9x200).
When I try to swap frequency of RAM (yes, it refuses to work on 1066MHz so it works on 800MHz, which is max for my MBO), my PC won't start for next 10 minutes because of errors and I barely manage to fix it in a way it worked before adjustments (just checked it now in AIDA: DDR2-800 (400 MHz) is active RAM frequency...)
Since of following dissapointment, I didn't even try to touch voltage of RAM-s, because it might get on fire, according to behaviour with frequency change.
I do not have experience with overclocking components, but I am sure my PC is 100% working, components were tested regularly and I don't have any other problems with it.
I would appreciate any of forum members with experience in this field, especially with this MBO, RAM or CPU, leave any useful intelligence that might help me with boosting my PC performance for a bit.
(if there is any guide or forum post for this theme, you can also share it!).
Thanks in advance!
For any additional info about PC setup, tell me.

10: Finding Your Calling & Courage with Hand Lettering Artist Andrea Howey
In today's episode we talk with our good friend and amazing hand lettering artist, Andrea Howey about how God revealed an unexpected calling during the hardest season of her life. She began writing out promises from the Bible in an effort to build her faith, and after a quick google search she discovered her gift had a name: hand lettering. Now God is using her beautiful hand lettering artwork to spread truth and encourage thousands through her daily instagram posts.
We chatted with Andrea all about finding your calling, crazy faith required kind of risks, and how to hold on to God's promises on the tough days. We were so inspired by our conversation with Andrea; we know you will be too!
We'd love to hear your favorite takeaways! Share them with us here:
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/onelife.works/
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisgraebe/
Guys, make sure you go and grab a beautiful print or two from AndreaHowey.com and use the 15% off discount promo code she is offering to you, our amazing listeners: ONELIFE It's that simple! We absolutely LOVED this one, this one, and this one! Leave us a comment with your favorite finds!
Be encouraged, friends!
A Leader In The Making, Joyce Meyer
"God, if you really are good and if your Word is true, I'm going to figure out what it looks like to stand on your word and on your promises!"
"I began to dig into the Word of God and find what I needed to stir up my faith and latch onto hope."
"There are just some things in life we won't have answers to, that wrap up in a pretty bow, that make sense this side of heaven."
"Obedience is never lost with God. He's never going to leave us. He's never going to fail us."
"Stay faithful. Stay constant. Stay committed to what's in your hand today."
"As your listening to God, He'll get you where you need to be."
"Enjoy where you are today."
"Find out what your interests are. Practice them daily. That gives God room to take it to the next level."
"Take risks, don't let fear hold you back."
"God has called me onward and forward and my best is yet to come with Him, and it's worth it to take those risks of faith."

Today, there are several options available for rebuilding lost teeth, but none are as effective or as lifelike as dental implants. At Sage Dental Care, Dr. Branco and Dr. Kim highly recommend this state-of-the-art service if your smile has been left incomplete by damage or decay. We are happy to provide the entire implant treatment process (including both surgery and restoration) right here in one convenient office location to help you remain at-ease with the team you know and trust. Contact our North Reno or South Reno, NV practice today to schedule your first consultation!
After our team has determined that you're a good candidate for dental implants, the first step of treatment is the surgical placement of the implants into the jawbone. When this step is complete, you begin on a months-long healing process; during this time, your body's natural instincts take over as the oral tissue and bone form around the implants, creating a solid foundation.
Finally, it is time to return to Sage Dental Care so that we can design and place the ideal restoration on top of the implants. All-ceramic dental crowns are recommended for individual implants, while a customized, implant-retained bridge or denture can cover multiple implants at once in a more cost-effective manner.
Keep in mind that dental implants are not exclusively for replacing individual teeth. They can easily be designed to replace multiple teeth at a time, even though they don't have their own dedicated implant.
In the case of individual tooth replacements, a single implant is used to hold one implant-retained crown.
Learn More About Single Tooth Implants
If you're missing consecutive teeth, a bridge can be fabricated to replace three or four teeth at time while only using two implants. Instead of relying on buffed down teeth to anchor a restoration, the implants can hold a tooth on either end of the bridge. Their structure is durable enough to hold the entire restoration, therefore filling the gap in your smile.
Learn More About Implant-Retained Bridges
When a patient has experienced the loss of all the natural teeth along the top or bottom arch of the mouth (or both), their overall quality of life can be dramatically reduced. What's worse is that the loss of jawbone density over time can make traditional implant treatment very difficult. Thankfully, our two Reno, NV office locations offer All-On-4 as a worthwhile alternative.
Like the name implies, All-On-4 requires the placement of just four implants into the jawbone at strategic positions, which eliminates the need for costly, time-consuming grafting procedures in most cases. Better yet, an implant-retained denture can be placed on the very same day, which saves you from having to be without the strong, capable smile you need.
Learn More About Implant-Retained DenturesLearn More About All-on-4
The cost of dental implants always varies from person to person, which is why seeing a dentist for a consultation is a key part of the process. For example, the cost can vary depending on the number of implants being placed, the type of implant used and the preparatory treatments necessary to make implants viable. Furthermore, costs can vary depending on the abutments used, which are connectors for the restoration to the implant itself. The more complex the restoration is, the higher the cost will become as well.
With that being said, dental implants are a long-term investment that is often considered the most cost-efficient solution to tooth loss, especially if you're missing many teeth. This is because in the long-term, dental implants are easy to maintain and incredibly durable, unlike other options that don't typically last for life.
Learn More About The Cost of Dental Implants
Before moving forward with any treatment, we at Sage Dental Care want to make sure you're confident about your treatment decisions, including getting dental implants. After all, they will affect your smile for years to come. To help you become more informed about this restoration option, we've compile some common questions about dental implants and our responses. We hope they help you feel more comfortable in your treatment choices.
