Bob Stewart Flow Chart
Producer: Bob Stewart/Sande Stewart
Host: Jim Perry
Announcer: Jack Clark
Taping Info: 1982
Made it to Air: No
Availability: It has aired on GSN and is available on the trading circuit.
You know, I have always felt that there just isn't enough table shuffleboard on television today. And the Stewart family attempted to come to my rescue with the game Twisters � which combined elements of Stewart's Jackpot and unsold pilot $10,000 Sweep with the bonus shuffle of the 1979 version of Goodson-Todman's Beat the Clock. Jim Perry, fresh from his stint on Card Sharks, was chosen to be the host of this pilot.
Ten contestants were brought in, with nine of them sitting on a bizarre altar while the tenth was "King of the Hill." Oddly, the "king" was usually a queen and the "hill" was the lowest part of the stage. The king would then slide a disc across a modified shuffleboard table that has bumpers all around instead of a landing spot on each end. The disc could land on any of ten spaces � either the numbers one through or nine or a red spot. If the disc was on a number, the contestant that is designated that number on the altar has two choices of a beginning of a question. This player is hoping the king of the hill would miss the question. If the king misses, the player and the king switch places.
Being the king was important since you had to be the king in order to win the game and go on to the bonus game. For each question the king answered correctly, the number of the selected player was deducted from the score, which started at 40. When the score reached 0, the game was won and the king plus the contestant who was selected to seal the win split $1,000 and tried to qualify for the bonus game.
To qualify for the bonus game, the two players must each answer a question that was started by the other player. Unlike the main game, the players were cooperating so the question part to be chosen needed to be one that would be answered. If both questions were answered correctly, the players moved onto the bonus game. If they failed, no bonus game was played, the king of the hill went back to the altar and the other player became the new king of the hill.
The bonus game was straight out of the 1972 Stewart pilot $10,000 Sweep. Jim Perry would start a question, one player would see the answer and try to complete the question, while the other player would answer the question based on what he/she has heard. If 10 questions were answered in 60 seconds, the duo split $10,000, otherwise, they split $100 per correct answer.
Extra fun things in the game included an automatic win if the disc landed on the final digit of the current game score, and a chance to win the car if the red space was landed on the board. The game was also environmentally friendly, as the theme was recycled from Jackpot and the music played while the disc moved up and down the board was from Chain Reaction. Finally, the player who accumulated the most money over the five days was considered the returning champion and would come back the following week.
I'm surprised this game didn't sell. Not that it would have been a long-term hit, but it would have been one of those games that would have fascinated children and pretty much forced the parents to watch. When Jackpot was revived by the USA Network in 1985, this would have been a better game to try.
This pilot has been viewed 8970 times since October 6, 2008 and was last modified on Dec 12, 2009 14:46 ET

ChromaWerksDesigned by: George Jaros
In ChromaWerks each player uses 9 double sided cards (shuffled) to make a 3x3 grid. Each quadrant of each card is a different color and players must take turns completing one of four actions to try to get all four center squares to be solid colors. The old version of the cards had only colors and symbols. The new design has various types of machinery in different colors: Red Gears, Yellow Drive Belts, and Blue Pipes. There are also sections of 'broken' machinery with images of damaged components on a black background.

Payday lenders: If the target is easy enough, constitutional rights don't matter
Obama turns the regulatory state into a quasi-legislature.
If you're familiar with payday lenders, you probably know that the manner in which they lend money is – shall we say – not the wisest way to access capital. They lend money against people's paychecks (almost exclusively to low-income people who have a hard time getting conventional credit), and the typically roll over the loans each pay period, adding to the interest owed each time they do.
This is not how you want to borrow, if you do at all, and there's a lot to be said for regulating the way this industry works, and that's a matter that's always been left to individual states to decide.
Or it was until now. With no corresponding action by Congress, the Obama Administration has taken the liberty of making new rules via the regulatory state for how the payday lending industry has to operate. Some of the rules are reasonable, like making the lenders better assess a borrower's ability to pay the loan back. Others could lead to trouble, like opening up the door for class-action suits that never benefit anyone but the lawyers who work the case.
But it troubles me, and it should trouble you, that this administration simply picks out industries that are easy political targets and decides to "crack down" on them. The loan agreements between payday lenders and their customers are freely entered into, and the terms are legal. As is so often the case when politicians complain about "predatory lenders," I note that the individuals who accept the loans are not being forced to do so. I disagree with the idea that they have "no choice" but to take out these loans. If you're hard up for money, you certainly have a choice other than borrowing – and in fact, it's rarely in your interest to take on debt when you're having trouble simply paying your bills.
So yes, the borrowers do have a choice, and if they enter into one of these loan agreements, both parties in the deal were acting freely and legally.
If the Obama Administration wants new laws passed to govern how all lenders have to deal with all borrowers, he should go to Congress and propose it. He won't do that, of course, because Congress is Republican-controlled and he decided some time ago that this exempts him from the Constitution. When he started going around saying, "If Congress won't act, I will," what he was really saying was, "I'm going to do what I want. Try and stop me."
Now you might argue that in this case his action is not so bad because the business practices of the payday lending industry could use some changes. But that's not the real issue here. Obama has made the regulatory state a de facto legislative body during his presidency, and he chooses which industries, groups or individuals will come under special scrutiny, or be forced to abide by new rules he sets.
If Congress should do something but won't, the solution is to elect a new Congress. It is not for the president to just take matters into his own hands. Today it might be an industry no one likes very much. Tomorrow could be a very different story.

That continues to be debated, across the country, but the beginnings of a potentially intriguing development took shape late this evening. Holding centrestage, this time, is Kapil Dev.
The proverbial million-Rupee question now is: Will the coach be present when the selectors meet at the CCI tomorrow afternoon?
More than anything else, his absence could work even more to Azhar�s advantage. And, yes, it will leave captain Sachin Tendulkar �isolated�.
While Board secretary Jaywant Lele, contacted in Mumbai, informed Kapil �had been invited and would be present,� the coach, speaking from New Delhi, indicated he may absent himself.
�I have nothing to say... No, I haven�t decided on when to go... Is it so important that you must ask?� was Kapil�s initial response, when contacted by The Telegraph.
Significantly, the coach was somewhat vague on whether (as has been the practice) he had actually received the Board�s invitation.
�I�ll tell you when I... Yes, I did get a letter a few days ago, but you�ll have to ask the Board secretary about its contents...� Kapil remarked.
Clearly, the coach is anything but happy � and, it�s not limited to our showing Down Under.
It does appear Kapil has been more than just peeved by a calculated �leak� from the Board, soon after the team�s return from Australia, that he may be excluded from the meeting proper.
That somebody suddenly became aware of some clause in the Board�s constitution, which didn�t talk of the coach being present at selection committee meetings, is absurd.
While the constitution has been around for years, the Board appointed the first cricket manager (Ajit Wadekar) as recently as 1992-93 and coach (Madanlal) in 1996-97.
Obviously, that �leak� was one way of trying to get even with the coach, but Kapil isn�t one to forget being humiliated. Frankly, it�s quite a surprise he hasn�t reacted in a manner one would expect somebody of his stature to.
Of course, the coach may still board one of the many New Delhi-Mumbai flights tomorrow morning, but it will be foolish to think it would be the end of that �leak�.
To return to the build-up, the batting slots up for grabs would probably have been settled by this evening had Board President�s XI, and not South Africa, batted on Day-I of their three-day match at the CCI.
Now, the selectors and a string of hopefuls must wait. Besides Azhar, the list includes opener Wasim Jaffer and middle-order contenders Ajay Jadeja and Mohammed Kaif, the gifted U-19 captain from UP.
Even Jacob Martin who, essentially, is more suited to the sport�s longer version.
With Sadagopan Ramesh unfit, Mumbai�s Jaffer stands an excellent chance of making the cut. He could, though, himself queer the pitch by falling cheaply should the BP XI�s innings begin before the selectors meet.
V.V.S.Laxman, who scored 167 in his last Test innings (Sydney), is assured of one opener�s berth.
Though Nayan Mongia dropped a couple of catches, this afternoon, he is set to return for the first time since last summer�s World Cup.
Mongia�s expected comeback will also give the thinktank an additional option �- utilising him as an opener.
Among the bowlers, only Jawagal Srinath and Anil Kumble are certainties. Indeed, under acute pressure is Venkatesh Prasad, while strongly tipped are quick T. Kumaran and left-arm spinner Murali Karthik .
Sachin is bound to plug for Ajit Agarkar, but questions continue to be raised about his fitness.
In contention, too, is Harbhajan Singh.
With Mongia set to return and Azhar seemingly well-placed, both Kapil and the captain will have a delicate job at hand in the dressing room. It�s no secret both favoured others over Azhar and Mongia.
In fact, it will come as a huge surprise if Sachin doesn�t continue with his �be-patient-with-the-youngsters� line. Only, despite his own standing, he could find few takers for something openly embraced earlier in the season.
A tournament, already orphaned by the early exit of Leander Paes, closed today on a drab note. So much so that the best entertainment came via two exhibitions Paes played in.
Third seed Tuomas Ketola dismissed Andy Ram 6-1, 6-3 to clinch the Indian Oil-Servo ATP Challenger crown. Ram then received a French �bonus� as Guillaume Marx and Gregory Carraz conceded the doubles final. Ram and fellow-Israeli Nir Welgreen were up 2-1, 40-0 when Marx couldn�t continue due to a knee injury.
A clear favourite going into the final, the 160th-ranked Ketola steered clear of the path fourth seed Mose Navarra had tread in during his match with the Israeli yesterday. Supremely fit and lightning quick, the Finn let his tennis do the talking.
Ketola, who will be 25 on Monday, broke Ram in the opening game. A fine defensive lob had Ram scrambling back only to send the overhead smash crashing into the net on break-point.
Ram landed a lot of first serves (70 per cent) alright but they didn�t quite have the thrust to test Ketola�s return. The Finn, in fact, feasted on Ram�s second serves, winning 92 per cent of those points.
The only time Ram held serve in the first set was in the third game. A pair of forehand winners gave Ketola the break (at love) in game 5, while in game 7 Ram dug his own grave with back-to-back unforced errors. In 22 minutes sharp, Ketola had gone a set up.
Realising the need to get aggressive, Ram charged the net more often. It didn�t always work, what with Ketola being spot-on with his passing shots. Even the tactic of playing drop-shots didn�t work for the Israeli as the Finn retrieved every ball.
Ram�s chance came and went early in the second set. He managed to capture Ketola�s serve with a freakish service return but then let the Finn break-back in the very next game. �I got a bit scared when he broke me in the second set,� said Ketola. �Good I broke back immediately.�
Ram, who had to go through three sets in all previous four rounds, found no way to push this one to a decider. Just about hanging on till the seventh game, the Israeli youngster cracked one final time in game 8.
The frustration at not having managed to earn full points from the Ranji Trophy Super League opener against Delhi was writ large on Sourav Ganguly�s face today.
In his fourth Ranji match since his international debut and possibly his last this season, Sourav staged a dramatic turnaround in Bengal�s fortunes until a couple of dropped chances, some close decisions and a dour eighth-wicket partnership saw the visitors manage to keep their nose clean. In the end, he was left to rue the time lost due to rain and bad light.
Sourav�s second five-wicket haul (5/91) in Ranji along with Utpal Chatterjee�s four for 84 had left the hosts with a target of 124 in 13 mandatory overs. The ask proved tough despite the Bengal skipper opening the innings with Devang Gandhi.
Ajay Sharma had placed all nine men on the boundary ropes and the cordon was difficult to break. The draw was agreed upon with two mandatory overs remaining.
In hindsight, it appears Sourav could have put psychological pressure on Delhi by opting to open with Laxmi Ratan Shukla. The allrounder had hit a century against the same opposition in the Wills Trophy in Jamshedpur last season. Devang is not in the best of form and promoting Laxmi could have upset Delhi�s plans.
With five points in their kitty, Sourav is very optimistic about Bengal making it to the quarter finals from this group.
The mere presence of Sourav is always enough to kindle hope. His absence will alter equations. Sourav�s enthusiasm and attitude refuses to percolate down the order, Utpal being the only exception. Today Utpal used the rough at the Club House end to good effect, becoming difficult to negotiate.
Five quick morning wickets had raised Bengal hopes. Nikhil Chopra and Rahul Sanghvi�s 52-run eighth-wicket stand almost shut out their chances. Sanghvi was dropped on 7 and 11.
The Bengal skipper felt his achievements as a bowler is always a bonus to the side. �I�ve added an extra yard of pace but, more importantly, I�m now able to swing the ball at any time of the day and under any condition.�
Sourav was all praise for Haldipur and Utpal. �Utpal is the best left-arm spinner in the country. He bowled brilliantly on this flat track and against players who play spin very well. The difference in class was evident. Haldipur is also shaping up excellently. Both have the ability to represent the country.�
He felt Shukla and Sumit Panda needed to be �more disciplined� with their bowling.
India lost 0-3 to China but the coach obviously wants his best players fresh for tomorrow�s crunch match versus Thailand � the winners will be the third team to qualify for the championship round in Kuala Lumpur in May.
Thailand adopted a similar ploy, resting Boonsak Polsana, Anupap Thiraratsakul and Kitipon Kitikul. They lost 0-3 to South Korea. China and South Korea thus qualified for the main round.
Arif felt it would have been impossible to overpower China, four-time champions, even at full strength. China, without two key players Sun Jun and former All England champion Dong Jong, have three players ranked among the top 20 in the world.
The Indian move, therefore, was wise as it would be important to have Gopichand and Gupta in good condition for the needle match against Thailand. Incidentally, 12 years ago, India had qualified for the final round by beating Thailand at the same venue. If they win tomorrow it will be their third entry to the Thomas Cup final round.
Group A action begins March 8 but Mohun Bagan and East Bengal won�t play before March 13. Mohun Bagan meet Howrah Union and East Bengal face WB Police in their respective openers.

Chan finishes 6th at Skate Canada
American Abbott wins men's final
Patrick Chan was asked Thursday why he was competing at Skate Canada this weekend, despite still feeling an occasional twinge in his injured left calf.
The 18-year-old Canadian champion said he wanted to show his new program and his recovery to international judges, and this would be the last opportunity before the Olympics in February.
What they saw in Kitchener, Ont., on Saturday was a difficult choreography that will likely, if mastered, put Chan in the medals at Vancouver.
They also saw a young man with a lot of work to do between now and the Canadian championships at London in January, his next scheduled appearance.
Chan fell three times in his long program on the way to a sixth-place overall finish, including a breathtaking miss off a triple. After coming off the ice to a standing ovation, Chan said physically, things were all right.
"The second axel [his first fall] was just a normal fall — it just looked more painful than it really was," Chan told CBC Sports.
"It was more what it caused me physically, because mentally it really drained me getting back up, having to build up my speed again, especially with the complex steps going into the next jump."
Explanations aside, Chan said he was "disappointed" in his performance because of how hard he trained "and it didn't really show."
As for being ready for the national championships, there was no question, he said.
"[Skate Canada] is only one of the stages leading up to the Olympics. This was a good testing ground."
Chan's score of 130.13 for the free, including three points in deductions, was far below his personal best of 160.29. The total of 198.77 was more than 50 points behind his best previous combined mark.
Jeremy Abbott of the United States, who led following Friday's short program, won the gold medal with a strong performance that accentuated his long limbs and athleticism.
Daisuke Takahashi of Japan won the silver with Alban Preaubert of France third.
Canadian Joey Russell was 10th overall and Jeremy Ten was 12th.
Chan started strong
Chan's performance, to Phantom of the Opera, opened on a strong note with a nice triple-double combination, and another one shortly afterward.
But past the halfway mark he tried another triple that included those unintentional splits, pulled himself together and missed another jump 20 seconds later.
The Toronto native had what was described as a slight tear in his left calf muscle at the end of the summer, forcing him to pull out of the Rostelecom Cup in Moscow, the season's second Grand Prix event.
He said on Thursday the calf was ready to go, despite some twinges on triple axels and triple toe loops.

Because I know from online retailers you don't pay the sales tax unless you live in the state it is being delivered. Thanks for anyone's insight!

Elliot Goblet
|Elliot Goblet
Jack Levi as Elliot Goblet
|First appearance
|Last appearance
|Created by
|Jack Levi
|Portrayed by
|Jack Levi
Elliot Goblet is a comedy character created by the Australian comedian Jack Levi. The character is known for the deadpan delivery of one-line jokes and the style compares with the American comic Steven Wright.[citation needed] At first Goblet appeared with round glasses and a goatee beard, but the beard was later removed.
Created with assistance from Australian comedy teacher Pete Crofts, the Goblet character was launched onto the comedy scene with numerous TV performances on Hey Hey It's Saturday, The Eleventh Hour, Statesmen of Comedy and other Australian TV variety and sketch shows.
As Goblet, Levi recorded the ARIA award-nominated CD Internally Berserk,[1] wrote the book Business According To Goblet and has appeared in short films as well as the feature film Fat Pizza. He has also hosted the Qantas comedy audio program on all of their flights worldwide.
Levi has performed as Goblet around Australia as well as in seven other countries, including the United States and England. Apart from doing occasional public performances or weddings, most of his work is at corporate events as a performer or master of ceremonies.[2]
Together with Mitchell Faircloth (aka "Slim Whittle"), Levi created the Crimson Goat Cabaret Club.
In April 2015 a new comedy album, Goblet's Greatest Bits, was released and a portion of the proceeds from the album are going to two causes, the Father Bob Maguire Foundation and Les Twentyman's 20th Man Fund.
Levi is of Jewish descent.

What are some of the lessons we can learn from dementia? We can learn about them in a classroom. We can read books, watch videos and listen to audio about the subject. Or, we can learn through experience of taking care of someone who has dementia.
We can ask them how they feel? Ask them every day what they want to do? Ask them if they feel like talking with someone, or if they would like to visit someone.
Below are three lessons we can learn from dementia.
Don't Take Dementia Personal
When you are caring for someone you have loved and known for many years, it's often difficult to separate the person you once knew with the one who has dementia. At times, you will feel sad, hopeless, and confused. You will sometimes hear them say things to you that make you anxious, slightly irritated, or even angry.
Never take anything as personal that you hear from an elderly loved one with dementia.
Read More
We Can Learn What It's Like to Live with Dementia
The only way we can truly learn what it's like to live with dementia is to care for someone who has it. There are various technical gadgets on the market that simulates what it's like to have dementia, but only people who have it can give you better insight.
This brings us to an interesting question. If you are caring for people with dementia, are your activities and planning based on what you think they like and should be doing, or do you listen to them, and build your schedule around what they suggest?
It's important to remember that people who have dementia can live with it, and although it causes them to forget, they still have many activities they can still enjoy.

We Continue to Enjoy Music When We Have Dementia
Music remains a part of our lives, even when our memories begin to fade. Music can continue to have a calming and joyous effect on seniors with dementia. We try to provide all of our residents with a personal playlist on an iPod or similar device. Music is powerful. It triggers emotions as well as memories from the past.
The way that music quickly makes seniors happy is a universal message. Hearing songs that they have enjoyed for most of their lives remains beneficial when they have Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, too.

Confident Birthing Class at The Lotus Tree Boise
There is something about the Confident Birthing Childbirth Classes at The Lotus Tree in Boise.
The best way to describe it is to say…like everything at The Lotus Tree…
the focus is on PLAY …and learning happens naturally.
even coping becomes PLAY
and play leads to connections
we ease into the 'work'
and the work has its own meaning
a safe space is created
and the space of the couple emerges
together individuals
become parents in community

Should super admin have capabilities that don't exist?
I am writing a plugin and keep running into the problem that my menu pages always appear in my dashboard, even when I require capabilities that don't exist…
So I tried printing out the values of allcaps and decided afterwards to try and be funny by doing this:
echo (current_user_can("play_chopsticks") ? "yes" : "no");
True enough, the result is "yes" !!!
I added this during plugin activation:
$role = get_role( 'administrator' ); $role->add_cap( 'manage_wuss' );
Yet when I do any of these, the menus appear in the dashboard:
add_menu_page("MyHead", "WUSS", manage_wuss, "wuss_settings", show_wuss_config); add_menu_page("MyHead", "WUSS", manage_wussies, "wuss_settings", show_wuss_config); add_menu_page("MyHead", "WUSS", manage_whisky, "wuss_settings", show_wuss_config); add_menu_page("MyHead", "WUSS", shuold_manage, "wuss_settings", show_wuss_config);
Is this normal behaviour for super admin accounts? I am beginning to think something is seriously wrong because I was trying to load my settings page using
include_once('settings.php')and true enough it works just fine on the site dashboard but in the netword dashboard I get an error about calling (I forget the exact function now but) something of WordPress that checks the user's capabilities but when I rename the file from settings.php to anything else, then it loads just fine in the site dashboard and the network dashboard… but now I am running into this issue where absolutely anything I pass to current_user_can() returns true…
Are these two issue related? Is this normal for Super Admin roles? Is my site totally messed up? Does anyone have any ideas?
- The topic 'Should super admin have capabilities that don't exist?' is closed to new replies.

75,000 Bonus Qantas Points + 75 Status Credits - ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Ad
Emirates will begin flying its flagship Airbus A380 to San Francisco and Houston from December 2014.

The A380 will add an extra 135 seats to San Francisco and 137 to Houston, but the big wins are are the pointy end with the superjumbo's 76 lie-flat business class seats and 14 private first class suites – plus a bar where premium passengers can mingle during the journey.

Lizzie Haines is a beautiful women of many talents. She is a swimmer, a photographer, a model and she is one crafty diva!
Recently I asked her if she could make me a very special unique bag, a bag that would do the talking…
A 'Fuller Figure Fuller Bust' bag.
Loaded with ideas Lizzie got to work on my bag. I wanted a plus size underwear clad woman on one side and my name on the other. She sourced the best materials and produced the most amazing bag ever!
I was so excited to receive it! It would be perfect for press events, everyone would know who I was and I could fit a few bras in there too! The image of the women was stunning, not too in your face, just glam enough to help me rock the back out and about anywhere.
Thank you Lizzie for taking my crazy idea and making something gorgeous. I will continue to spread the word about my blog and the topics I cover and this bag will be a fabulous side kick.
Read Lizzie's blog post here and check out the rest of her her gorgeous designs here – you may find that dream present or be inspired to ask her to commission a unique piece.

- there's the original HDN that started it all,
- then came a continuity reboot, MK2,
- and there's a sequel to that reboot, Victory (V for short).
- Now, the latest sequel, VII, is in development.
All of which are for the PS3, I believe. Now, in addition to the main timeline, there's a so-called "Re;birth" version of each, meant to be remakes of the first three games, available on the PS Vita.
Then, there are three spin-offs of this series, which are:
- an idol raising sim, Producing Perfection,
- a hack and slash, Chou-somethin' Neptunia U,
- and a... What's it called, an SRPG? It's the one featuring Noire/Black Heart, right?

Molton Brown have some amazing beauty gifts for Christmas this year and most importantly gifts that will cater to every budget. From the high end packaging to the luxurious formulas and heavenly scented products, you just know that anyone who receives a Molton Brown gift this year is going to love it. My particular favourites are the baubles which come in at a very affordable £10. They're perfect for any Secret Santa gift and such a delightful stocking filler. If you want to spend a little more, the larger (more expensive) gift sets that are crammed with shower gels and body creams are a real treat, as are the hand soaps and hand creams. And let's face it, who doesn't love a candle! All the gifts come presented in a lovely box with a beautiful bow, that make them totally Christmas ready.
Watch my video to see me declare my love for all the Molton Brown Christmas gifts. Because they're just that good!

The Second World War
Perhaps no six-year period saw such rapid progress in the development of the aircraft as 1939 to 1945. At the outbreak of war in September 1939, the air forces of many nations were still using biplanes as front-line fighters, but by 1945, at least three of the combatants had developed jet fighters capable of speeds approaching 500 miles per hour, and fleets of bombers had devastated cities on both sides. In Britain alone, it would take at least two years of war before supposedly obsolete biplanes such as the Gloster Gladiator and Fairey Swordfish were fully phased out. The Gladiator was instrumental in the defense of the British-held island of Malta in the Mediterranean, and the Swordfish torpedo bomber turned out to be a vital weapon in the hunt for and ultimate destruction of the German battleship Bismarck in the Spring of 1941.
Hybrid aircraft employing both biplane and monoplane technology, such as the Hawker Hurricane, helped breach the gap between the fighters of the First World War, and those that would be dominant in the second. Aircraft with fixed landing gear such as Germany's Ju87 Stuka dive bomber, and Japan's Ki-27 Nate fighter were used with devastating effect at the beginning of the war, but in time were too slow to cope with the new breed of Allied fighters. Progress also pushed aside the parasol fighters of the 1930's, the last of which, Poland's PZL P.24, was still a front-line fighter in the Greek Air Force in 1941, and gave a surprisingly good account of itself against the Messerschmitt Bf109 when Germany invaded Greece in April of that year.
The war served as a catalyst for the development of piston-engined aircraft to the pinnacle of their performance, then pushed aircraft design to the point that the appearance of the jet foretold the end of the world's propeller-driven air forces. The speed with which the technology developed was breathtaking; the Japanese Zero, which dominated Pacific skies for the first 18 months after Pearl Harbor, met its match with the appearance of the Grumman F6F Hellcat, and later the P-38 Lightning. The story of the Zero indicated that speed and firepower were not enough; a winning fighter needed armor protection, self-sealing fuel tanks, range, maneuverability, and the ability to take a beating. The Hellcat in particular had all these factors in its favor. But before war's end, Germany's Messerschmitt Me 262 had already signaled that the days of the superiority of the Hellcat and Lightning were numbered.
The range and destructive power of aircraft also took giant leaps as a result of the war. Although conventional military wisdom in the 1930's deemed it impossible that a flimsy aircraft could pose a threat to any large naval vessel, the British aerial torpedo attack on Italian battleships docked at Taranto in 1940, and the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 discredited that idea forever. In 1939, there was no aircraft capable of delivering more than a few hundred pounds of explosives and causing relatively limited damage, yet the war ended when a B-29 bomber delivered a single bomb that all but leveled two Japanese cities.

Today's "Feature Friday" is Beautiful Dead ~ Jonas by Eden Maguire, which is scheduled to be released on March 1, 2010. You can read an excerpt here. The book will be followed by Beautiful Dead ~ Arizona, and Beautiful Dead ~ Summer.
Synopsis (Product Description):
Something strange is happening in Ellerton High. Phoenix is the fourth teenager to die within a year. His street fight stabbing follows the deaths of Jonas, Summer and Arizona in equally strange and sudden circumstances. Rumours of ghosts and strange happenings rip through the small community as it comes to terms with shock and loss.
Darina, Phoenix's grief-stricken girlfriend, is on the verge. She can't escape her intense heartache, or the impossible apparitions of those that are meant to be dead. And all the while the sound of beating wings echo inside her head…
And then one day Phoenix appears to Darina. Ecstatic to be reunited, he tells her about the Beautiful Dead. Souls in limbo, they have been chosen to return to the world to set right a wrong linked to their deaths and bring about justice. Beautiful, superhuman and powerful, they are marked by a 'death mark' – a small tattoo of angel's wings. Phoenix tells her that the sound of invisible wings beating are the millions of souls in limbo, desperate to return to earth.
Darina's mission is clear: she must help Jonas, Summer, Arizona, and impossibly, her beloved Phoenix, right the wrong linked to their deaths to set them free from limbo so that they can finally rest in peace. Will love conquer death? And if it does, can Darina set it free?

It is said that in many countries bookstores are being replaced with other business because people now prefer reading electronic books to printed matter. Do you agree that in future number of printed books would decline sharply?
Most Helpful Guy
Personally, I prefer printed books to electronic ones because I like holding the book in my hand. Call me old school, but I've never been a fan of reading books on devices such as the Kindle.
I think printed books will always be around but unfortunatley, they've declined drastically. Despite this, however, I think book stores like Barnes & Noble will always be around. I don't think they will go out of business like Blockbuster and Hollywood Video did.

I think many do love manually reading, even in younger generations.

DEFIANCE, Ohio (WANE) U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) has sent a letter to General Motors CEO Mary Barra asking her to find jobs within the company for 157 employees facing layoffs at a plant in Defiance, Ohio.
According to a press release from Senator Brown, GM has announced it will discontinue the manufacture of nodular iron parts at its Defiance foundry. That move will result in the layoffs of 157 employees by 2018. Senator Brown indicated 300 jobs are already slated to be eliminated at the plant in 2017.
According to an article on the Toledo Blade website, the Defiance plant, Defiance Casting Operations, employs more than 1,100 workers and there are no plans to close the facility.
"My top priority is ensuring that General Motors does right by the loyal and hardworking employees affected by the closure of its iron casting division and by the Defiance community," Brown is quoted as saying in the news release. "That includes finding new jobs within General Motors for as many of these skilled and efficient workers as possible. I will work with local union leaders and General Motors management to transition the affected employees so they can continue to provide for their families."
The following is the entire text of the letter sent by Senator Brown to Mary Barra:
Dear Ms. Barra:
Recently, General Motors Company announced plans to discontinue the manufacture of nodular iron parts at the GM foundry in Defiance, Ohio. This move will result in the loss of 157 jobs by 2018, on top of more than 300 jobs losses already scheduled for 2017.
It is my understanding that GM has pledged to find new jobs within the company for the employees affected by the closure of the iron casting division- either in Defiance or nearby Fort Wayne and Toledo. I ask you to confirm these plans and the specific steps that will be taken to reassign these workers. These hardworking and loyal employees deserve no less.
The community of Defiance has a long and proud history with General Motors, and its people are committed to helping General Motors produce quality trucks and cars for years to come. I encourage you to make the most of GM' s talented and dedicated workforce in Defiance as General Motors develops new lines in the future.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if there are any ways I can be of assistance.
In a statement, Defiance Casting Operations described the following factors as reasons for the mass layoff:
- This is a business decision to exit this area and focus on other core business areas.
- Nodular iron production is no longer a core business to GM.
- The current production volumes do not support a profitable operation.
- Capabilities of the current equipment does not allow the business to compete at a global level.
- It is cost prohibitive to invest in new equipment upgrades to produce nodular iron in Defiance due to the available capacity and capability of existing suppliers to meet demand.

I believe Richard Dent belongs in the Hall of Fame. He was one of the first pass rushers -- like Lawrence Taylor -- to get the trifecta: he would get a sack, force a fumble and recover the fumble.
He was a force coming off the end, especially in the system. But his abilities weren't reliant upon the Buddy Ryan system. He had the ability to get to the quarterback, and bring the quarterback down.
One of the biggest knocks against him was that he took plays off. Usually, that's not decided before you start to rush the passer. That's something where, 'OK, I was going to try something, it didn't happen, and now I'm just going to settle things down, and I'm going to get pressure on the quarterback.'
What happens over 75 plays, once in a while, to be able to play that many plays, you've got to say, 'OK, I'm not going to have my best effort on this one. I'm going to have to bring the pass rush on the next one, and maybe conserve a little energy.'
There's a handful of guys who deserve to be in the Hall, but they can't all go in at the same time. I think eventually all the 15 finalists will get in the Hall of Fame.
With Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice going in this year, that leaves two or three other guys who can get in. With Fred Deane and Derrick Thomas already in, now the logjam at the defensive end position is starting to dissipate. Now you can take one or two pass-rushing defensive ends. That's why I think it's going to be Richard Dent, Charles Haley and maybe Shannon Sharpe
Dent did sustain his greatness for a long enough period of time. If you look at his amount of sacks compared to Hall of Famer Dan Hampton's amount of sacks, his grand total is much greater than Dan Hampton ever even dreamed about having.
When Peter King and John Clayton come out and say, 'Hey, Richard Dent's got a great chance of getting in this year,' that's enough for me to believe he'll get in there.
John Jurkovic is a former 10-year NFL defensive lineman. He co-hosts "The Carmen, Jurko & Harry Show" on ESPN 1000.

Editorial: End phony solutions in discipline cases
There were some disturbing elements in Thursday's article about a bill that would prevent Schenectady's public safety commissioner from disciplining his officers himself instead of going through a lengthy arbitration process.
And none of them had anything to do with the legislation itself.
Schenectady officials are rightly annoyed over the Legislature's passage of the bill this year requiring certain municipalities to use arbitrators when they want to discipline a police officer. They say the arbitration process is tedious, expensive and unreliably subjective, and they'd prefer to let Police Commissioner Wayne Bennett conduct disciplinary hearings and make the decisions himself.
The Legislature actually passes the arbitrator bill every year, to the consternation of the city. But apparently, it's wrapped in a bundle of sticks and stuffed down the governor's chimney in the middle of the night without many people being aware of it. When the governor sees it, he vetoes it and sends it back to the Legislature. But the Legislature never bothers to override the veto, even though it has the votes. So it doesn't become law, and instead it all becomes a moot exercise in paper-shuffling.
You'd think city officials would be glad the legislative process regarding this bill is screwed up in their favor. But they're not.
Even though courts have generally found that cities may not have to go through arbitration, Schenectady is compelled to bring in arbitrators anyway because if it doesn't, a negative decision in a disciplinary case will likely be challenged in court.
From a taxpayer perspective, this is a losing proposition. Not only do taxpayers pay a portion of the lengthy arbitration process, they also pay the officer in question for not working while he awaits a decision (which could take a year or more with appeals), and they pay other officers to cover the disciplined officer's shifts while he's on leave.
In addition to the cost and time, city officials aren't always happy with the decisions, which can be inconsistent among different arbitrators.
To remedy that, the city uses one particularly trustworthy arbitrator to arbitrate the cases. It's not ideal, but it's better than the alternative.
But rather than address a system that's clearly inefficient and expensive for local communities, the Legislature pretends to deal with the issue each year by passing legislation they know won't become law.
That leaves the whole process in limbo. And that's not good for anyone — taxpayers, city officials or the officers themselves.
We're also concerned about the role our state representatives are playing in this mess. City leaders have been barking about this issue for at least the past six years and two mayoral administrations. But Sen. Hugh Farley's office claims he didn't know the city had a problem with the bill, so he just voted for it. We'd almost rather hear him say he didn't read the bill and just rubber-stamped whatever passed across his desk. That at least would have been more plausible. Assemblyman Angelo Santabarbara seemed to know the city's position, but voted for it anyway because he supported the labor agreement.
A better system that ensures a fair hearing for officers without overburdening taxpayers is in order.
Having the police commissioner be sole judge and jury over these cases may not be the fairest option for officers.
But maybe state lawmakers could require that a single arbitrator be used in all but the most complex cases, and set a time limit on how long proceedings can take — kind of a speedy-trial rule.
Maybe they could require that disciplined officers can only collect their pay during their suspensions if they win their case. That might discourage poor behavior, as well as encourage arbitrators and unions to move cases along, saving taxpayers money.
Whatever they come up with, it's got to be better than continuing to pass phony legislation that only handcuffs and frustrates local governments. It's time lawmakers do some real work on a reasonable, fair disciplinary process.

This wool is un-dyed. And it's 100% British and processed at a British Mill.
About the fibre: approx. 31-35 microns and 80-100mm. The only purely black breed of sheep, the Black Welsh is super unique and a great way to produce something distinctly British. Try mixing this dark fleece with another colour for a humbug effect.
Spinning tip: This fibre has a lot of tough little hairs that tend to come flying off as you spin, so I would wear an apron with this. It does spin up beautifully though and I personally found it very fun! Suitable for felting also!
Sold by 10g (if you wanted 30g you would say Qty: 3). If you're not sure how much to get, but want enough to make something out of it, I'd suggest 100g.

Driving while Suspended
Driving with a Suspended License is not a good decision. If caught, the penalties may be severe. The reality, though, is that often people are unaware that their license has in fact been suspended. If your license has been suspended, or you have been given a ticket for driving with a suspended license, you need to seek legal counsel now. The Law Offices of Greg Prosmushkin, P.C. can help.
Your driver's license may be suspended for a variety of reasons, including: Driving Under the Influence, Reckless Driving, accumulating too many points for driving infractions, insurance law violations, unpaid parking tickets, failure to appear in court, failure to pay child support, and failure to pay a judgment related to a traffic accident suit, among many others.
Additionally, you may be Driving with a Suspended License and be unaware of this fact because you have not received notice. PennDOT is only required to send notice to your address on file. If you have moved and not informed PennDOT, they may have met their obligation, while you still are completely unaware of your driving with a suspended license. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse. If you have been unknowingly driving with a suspended license and receive a ticket, you need to contact an attorney immediately. Restoring your license may be a possibility, but fighting a corresponding charge is a must. The Law Offices of Greg Prosmushkin, P.C. understand that you need to drive to live your day-to-day life, and we are ready and able to help you.
If you have been charged with Driving with a Suspended License or simply wish to restore your driving privileges, you need to call us at 215-437-3058 for a free consultation. Reinstatement is possible, but the process is somewhat tricky. It changes depending on whether you have received a Long Term Suspension, Short Term Suspension, or an Indefinite Suspension of your driving privileges. You may need to respond to courts that have a lien on your driving privileges, various appeals may need to be filed, and negotiation with a district attorney is all but certain. Let The Law Offices of Greg Prosmushkin, P.C. manage these steps for you. You need to drive, and we know how to get you back behind the wheel, legally.

2016 Internet Of Things (IOT), Big Data & Business Intelligence Update
- Sales and strategic planning teams see IoT as the most valuable.
- IoT advocates are 3X as likely to consider big data critical to the success of their initiatives & programs.
- Amazon and Cloudera are the highest ranked big data distributions followed by Hortonworks and Map/R.
- Apache Spark MLib is the most known technology on the nascent machine learning landscape today.
These and many other excellent insights are from Dresner Advisory Services' 2016 The Internet of Things and Business Intelligence Market Study published last month. What makes this study noteworthy is the depth of analysis and insights the Dresner analyst team delivers regarding the intersection of big data and the Internet of Things (IoT), big data adoption, analytics, and big data distributions. The report also provides an analysis of Cloud Business Intelligence (BI) feature requirements, architecture, and security insights. IoT adoption is thoroughly covered in the study, with a key finding being that large organizations or enterprises are the strongest catalyst of IoT adoption and use. Mature BI programs are also strong advocates or adopters of IoT and as a result experience greater BI success. IoT advocates are defined as those respondents that rated IoT as either critical or very important to their initiatives and strategies.

- Drain the cranberries in a colander, then gently wrap them in a clean dishtowel to get rid of as much of the water clinging to them as possible.
- Combine the cranberries with a simple apple syrup made with 2 parts water to 1 chopped apples. (boil down apples until you can puree it into a thick syrup, keep as is or strain through cheesecloth. You can add spices like cloves and cinnamon to the mix). If the apples aren't in season you may need add a tablespoon of maple syrup as they will be tart.
- You'll need 1/4 cup of apple syrup for 12 ounces of cranberries (the amount usually found in commercially sold bags of cranberries).
- Let cranberries soak in apple syrup for up to 1 day
- Set a rack in a baking sheet. Cover it with two layers of paper towels and a sheet of parchment paper.
- Put the blanched, sweetened cranberries on the covered rack. Leave about 1/4-inch of space in between the berries on all sides so that air can circulate between the fruits.
- As you are setting the cranberries in place, notice if any of the berries did not split during their 10 minute soak in hot water. Pierce those that did not split with the tip of a paring knife before adding them to the covered rack.
Dry the Cranberries
- Turn the oven on to its lowest setting. On many ovens, this is 150F (ideal would be 135F, if your oven goes that low). Set the baking dish of cranberries in the oven 8 hours or overnight.
- Check the cranberries after 8 hours. They should be fully dry but still somewhat leathery or pliable.
- You won't be completely sure if the cranberries are fully dehydrated until they have cooled (you know how cookies crisp up after you take them out of the oven? Same deal with dried fruit). Once you think they are dry, turn off the oven and take out the cranberries. Let them cool for 20 to 30 minutes.

Warren "Rhubarb" Jones, the senior director of development at Kennesaw State University, died suddenly after a heart attack on Sunday, April 2.
Jones joined the KSU community in 2008. Before his role as director, he was a professor in the School of Communication & Media.
"He was one of the most popular professors among the communications students and a passionate supporter of KSU," the university said in a statement.
Ellen Eldridge is a reporter with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution who graduated from KSU. In an article for the AJC she wrote that, the morning before his death, Jones commented on one of her pieces on Facebook.
"He told me he was proud of me just hours before he died. I'm still in shock," Eldridge said in her article. "His mass communication class at Kennesaw State University was one of my favorites."
In a press release on KSU's website, President Sam Olens called Jones "a truly authentic individual" and expressed his condolences.
"This is a very sad day for all of us," Olens said. "Rhubarb always had a smile on his face, a generous spirit and was dedicated to helping others."
Beyond KSU, Jones is most remembered for his role at Y106 FM, an Atlanta-based country radio show that he co-hosted in the late 1980s. Because of his instrumental role in the station's success and his humanitarian accomplishments, he was inducted into the Country Music Disc Jockey Hall of Fame in 2001 and in the Georgia Radio Hall of Fame in 2007.
Rhubarb is widely known for his charity events, including the Rhubarb Jones Celebrity Golf Tournament for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and his annual March Across Georgia for the LLS. Rhubarb was also an Atlanta co-host for the annual Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Association Telethon.
According to a post by the AJC, a public visitation service for Jones will be held at Mill Town Music Hall in Bremen from 3 to 9 p.m. on Wednesday, April 5. The funeral service will be at 2 p.m. on Thursday at the First Baptist Church of Tallapoosa.
