India go for first rank, SL for first win in India
Match factsDecember 2-6, 2009
Start time 9.30am (0400 GMT)
Big Picture
Test cricket returns to a stadium originally designed to be the Lord's of India, which retained the exclusivity of Lord's but lost touch with the common man somewhere down the line. It houses the Ranji Trophy in its foyer and is built for storytelling, from the one when Abbas Ali Baig was kissed by a fan during an innings to the legendary Vijay Hazare-Vijay Merchant "rivalry" back in the day, and many in between.
The world has changed and the Brabourne Stadium has lost its prime position in the Mumbai hierarchy but what it hasn't lost is its sense of occasion. Should it be a mere coincidence, then, that India go in to the match with a chance of becoming the No.1 Test team for the first time ever, at a ground where more than 50 years ago they came agonisingly close to their first Test win when the umpire removed the bails with 90 seconds left on the clock and India six short of the target set by West Indies?
Sri Lanka have never played here, nor have they ever won in India. They are the second-ranked team in the world. Sri Lanka are struggling, Muttiah Muralitharan is struggling, their first-choice pace bowlers are down with injuries. Take out Bangladesh, and 12 of Sri Lanka's last 14 Test wins have come at home. Sri Lanka need to win this one, and justify their No. 2 ranking.
Form guide (last 5 Tests, most recent first)
India WDDDW
Sri Lanka LDWWD
Watch out for
Muttiah Muralitharan's slump is unreal, and yet cruelly true. Age is catching up; the shoulder and fingers must be sore; the SG ball doesn't come out just right; the Indian batsmen play him better than any other have; the pitches are affording slow turn. Yet Murali has to find a way. It can't all end in a whimper.
Murali Vijay is getting used to being the spare opener. Playing a Test when Gautam Gambhir feels like shouldering a bowler or when his sister is getting married or when other such equally fortuitous circumstances provide Vijay a chance. He scored 33 and 41 on Test debut last year, in the last match of the series against Australia, and ensured a recall when the need be. He will want to do better.
Of the four big Sri Lankan batsmen who landed in India without centuries to their name here, Kumar Sangakkara still remains. As a captain he will want to leave a big imprint with the bat in a must-win match.
Team newsVijay is almost certain to take Gambhir's place in what should be the only change to the India XI that won in Kanpur. Sreesanth did have a minor injury scare, but is likely to play. "He hurt his finger a bit but it's not too serious. He would play tomorrow," said MS Dhoni.
India : (probable) 1 M Vijay, 2 Virender Sehwag, 3 Rahul Dravid, 4 Sachin Tendulkar, 5 VVS Laxman, 6 Yuvraj Singh, 7 MS Dhoni (capt/wk), 8 Harbhajan Singh, 9 Zaheer Khan, 10 Sreesanth, 11 Pragyan Ojha.
Nuwan Kulasekara is fully fit and is likely to reinforce an attack that looked listless in Kanpur. He should take Ajantha Mendis' place in the final XI. There should be a debate between Chanaka Welegedara and Dilhara Fernando, but the left-arm variety could be given the nod.
Sri Lanka: (probable) 1 Tharanga Paranavitana, 2 Tillakaratne Dilshan, 3 Kumar Sangakkara (capt/wk), 4 Mahela Jayawardene, 5 Thilan Samaraweera, 6 Angelo Mathews, 7 Prasanna Jayawardene (wk), 8 Nuwan Kulasekara, 9 Chanaka Welegedara, 10 Muttiah Muralitharan, 11 Rangana Herath.
Pitch and conditionsNormally a pitch hosting a Test for the first time in 36 years would be a big unknown, but this one seems to have come as a pleasant change for both captains. Both expect nice bounce, help for fast bowlers in the earlier stages, and spin in the latter. "There will be a bit of bounce for the fast bowlers and as the game progresses you will see the spinners coming into action," Dhoni said. "They will get a bit of turn with bounce and that is what the spinners love the most. The first session will be crucial and that is when the seamers will get a bit of help, and also in the evening because of this time of the year the fast bowlers - if they maintain the ball - they will be able to swing it."
Stats and Trivia
- Eleven out of 17 Tests at the Brabourne have been drawn, but four out of the last six have yielded results.
- c Jayawardene b Murali is one short of 100 dismissals in all international cricket, by far a record for a bowler-fielder combination.
- Leading into his Test comeback, Sreesanth had bowled 112 overs for eight first-class wickets at 45.75. In his first innings back in Test cricket, he took 22 overs to finish a match-winning five-for.
- Rahul Dravid is only 218 runs behind Ricky Ponting, but has scored 28 centuries as opposed to Ponting's 38. Mahela Jayawardene has scored only one century fewer than Dravid, but has done it over 9079 runs, as opposed to Dravid's 11,182.
Quotes"We are not thinking about the ranking because you don't really want to be under pressure, you just want to play your natural game. We know if we keep winning the ratings will take care of themselves."
MS Dhoni thinks the thoughts of becoming No. 1 can wait for a bit
"Still a great opportunity. It's a case of regrouping and keep doing our basics right. I think we have the make-up of the side to beat any side in the world, and this is another opportunity for us to do that."
Kumar Sangakkara sees an opportunity in adversity

Coming June 9, 2016, Here & Now listeners and visitors will experience our stories and journalism online in a whole new way.
Holidays are the time when families and friends gather together for food and conversation. But some of the most important topics, such as end-of-life care, are the most difficult to discuss. A recent study shows that 90 percent of Americans say it's important to talk about end-of-life care but only 30 percent actually do.
Award-winning journalist Ellen Goodman wants to change that. She created The Conversation Project after being her mother's caretaker for 10 years and having to make difficult decisions for her mother. The Conversation Project gives people the tools to start talking about their end-of-life wishes.
Goodman is encouraging people to pick a date during the week of Jan. 1 to 7 to host a dinner with family and friends and "start talking about how we want to live the last days of our lives, honoring each other's wishes with dignity, respect and deep compassion."
Have the conversation at home, before there's a crisis
"If you're lucky — and we want to make sure that it's more than luck — you've had these conversations early, before there's a crisis. You're talking about running into a crisis or you're talking about people who end up making these decisions in the ICU. This is not the place to talk about what matters to you, what your values are, to have a real conversation about the kind of care that you want and the kind of care that you don't want. So we want to bring these talks early."
Death is inevitable…so talk about it
"It's funny, because there is, between adult children and elderly parents, a kind of conspiracy of silence often. The adult child doesn't even want to suggest to the parent that they might be dying or that they might ever die, I should say. And the elderly parent doesn't want to worry the child, and so, each of us sits there, knowing. I mean, my favorite line comes from The Onion magazine – they had a wonderful headline a couple of years ago that said 'Death Rate Holds At 100 Percent.' We all know the deal here, and when we don't talk about it, we end up often feeling quite lonely and isolated."
There may be a cultural shift underway
"I think we are at a tipping point. Part of it is that the baby boom generation is getting older and we've been the change agents in our culture. We're the generation that changed the way we give birth in America, so maybe we'll be the generation that changes the way we die. I do think there is something of a cultural shift in it – that doesn't mean that it's an easy one. And The Conversation Project, by the way, if you miss having these conversations at Christmas, the first week in January, we are partnering with Death Over Dinner and having a series of dinners. We are encouraging, on our website, all the fun and truly interesting, not scary, conversations that you can have to start your own dinner."

My best guess is that we've messed up locking on arm somewhere. I'll try to get time to fully boot an arm box with -current and see if I can repro this. It's odd that LOCKDEBUG makes it go away which suggests a timing issue, the only arm code I can find that uses LOCKDEBUG is the pmap code, and this seem unrelated to to that. Although it's worth a shot, add a #define LOCKDEBUG to pmap.c and see if the problems go away. cpuswitch.S does make calls to sched_lock and unlock, but I'm not sure if this is the same mutex or not. Might also be worth asking on tech-kern, see if anyone else has seen this. Thanks, Chris

To create xml mark-up intended specifically to describe what I want to display, I would like to be able to do the following: xml_element[xml_attribute] {css_attribute:xml_attribute_value;} For example: my-webpage-header {display:block;} my-webpage-header[height] {height:page-header.height.value;} Right now, I have to do the following: my-webpage-header[height=100] {height:100px;} ... my-webpage-header[height=52] {height:52px;} ... my-webpage-header[height=22] {height:22px;} ... my-webpage-header[height=10] {height:10px;} To get a value from xml into a CSS attribute-value pair, you have to add lots of rows to your CSS file. If there were a way, within CSS, to specify that an xml value belonging to an attribute of some xml element should be the value of a CSS attribute, that would be great. Let CSS get a url value from an xml attribute's value, and create links that way, instead of in XHTML. This would let me create complete web-pages using a custom tag set that's particular to the type of web-page that I'm building. From my limited expressions of the semantics of my writing, the scripting of what I'm designing for a web browser is best described with a custom tag-set, whether I'm designing knowledge or a graphical display. Using classes with xhtml is a choice to mark-up a graphical display that I design, but it's no fun. webpage seems less expressive than <breadcrumb myurl="./webpage.htm">webpage</breadcrumb> don't you think? -Noah Scales Yahoo!

For tomorrow's Fly Morning Rush segment we'll be talking Valentine's Day, specifically the non-romantic approach. Are you single? Or maybe just not interested in the "holiday"? Maybe you go out with friends, stay home and order pizza, do something else?
With Valentine's falling on a Friday this year plans may be different than in years past. (Ex: will the bars be more full with people hoping to find romance or less full because "no one" wants to be seen out not with a date on February 14? (I don't agree with that, by the way).
Share your tips for possible inclusion in tomorrow's segment.

"There's no crying in baseball!"

for Rachel to stay there teaching would be giong against everything she wants in her life.. doesnt fir the character at all.
"Irregardless? That's not even a real word. You're affixing the negative prefix 'ir-' to 'regardless', but, as 'regardless' is already negative, it's a logical absurdity!" ~Steve Smith
"Once I swore I would die for you, But I never meant it like this."
What a great episode. I thought it was going to be tacky but they pulled it off well. Sue as the grinch was just perfect. And when the club sang for the teachers, I had chills.
I know I've said it before but I just love Coach Beiste. I got a big lump in my throat when she sat down with Britney. I hope she's here to stay.
"We must overcome the notion that we must be regular...it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you to the mediocre." - Uta Hagen
I dont want my pain erased! As wretched as it is, I need my pain It makes me who I am. It makes me Grumpy. - Grumpy, Once Upon a Time
Loved Artie walking. I was getting pretty teary-eyed.
Except it *would* fit the stereotype of "those who can't, teach" -- which pisses the hell outta me, because of all of the losers out there with teaching jobs!Originally Posted by FireWoman;4122176;
Although Rachel is the most talented [questionable] in the limited little world of Lima, Ohio, she would be nothing more than a wannabe (third understudy, maybe) on Broadway. I could see her coming back to teach after a few months' failure in New York -- but speaking as a teacher .... uhhhh ..... yuck?!!
"There's no crying in baseball!"
-- Tom Hanks, A League of Their Own
Luckily for you I'm pretty sure that even in Lima even a music teacher needs a BA, so she'll have to be gone 3-4 years getting that before she could teach, plus time trying to make it in the big leagues....and the show will probably end by then!Originally Posted by Ellen;4122241;
Isnt the actress who plays Rachel from (or discovered from) Broadway--Im assuming since its the same girl/talent that she could make it...Originally Posted by Ellen;4122241;
She'd be trying to steal Will's job from him.Originally Posted by FireWoman;4122176;
Tonights episode was wonderful. Britney still believing in Santa was comic gold. I loved Beiste and what she did. Even Sue at the end was great.
My favorite parts...
Will giving Sue the fur lined track suit!
Britney and her Barbies. Get a good nights sleep, Ken. You're going to need it. Barbie took the red eye from Tampa!
Will "Ho, Ho...HO"
Them singing for the teachers. Wow. They sounded amazing.
I hate when the cops throw me in the back of the squad car ....like they didnt hear me call shotgun.

Loved the show! I'm glad to see Brittany getting more lines. She has become favorite character on the show.
Love Brittney, but I hate that I always have to rewind to realize what she said. I know her lines are meant to be deadpan, but I wish she was a little louder. I certainly don't want to miss one of her lines because they are the best.

CORVALLIS, Ore. - The type of advanced technology that is moving electric automobiles from a curiosity to a working reality will be on display Wednesday, April 8, at Oregon State University.
OSU is hosting a visit by the Renault-Nissan Alliance of its new "zero emission vehicle," a full-size, all-electric car powered by a lithium-ion battery that can go 100 miles on a single charge and will cost less for fuel than gasoline-powered vehicles.
It's expected to be marketed in the United States by 2010, and will be available for a sneak preview from 3:30 to 5 p.m. at the northwest corner of the Kelley Engineering Center on the OSU campus. Other student-built solar cars will also be on display. The event is free and open to the public.
Nissan representatives will be available to answer questions and explain the features of their company's new automobile and its capabilities, such as quick charging and low maintenance costs.
OSU already has a working relationship with Nissan, as part of Oregon Gov. Kulongoski's initiative to develop a charging network for electric vehicles and move the state toward a greater commitment to green transportation.
"Electric vehicles are clearly going to be important in the future of American automotive transportation, and OSU will be both a research and educational leader in creating that future," said Ron Adams, dean of the OSU College of Engineering. "We're already heavily committed to various research projects in this area, we have world-class testing facilities to help create optimal technologies, and we will train the engineers and other experts who will make this happen."
OSU has engineering programs in disciplines related to transportation vehicles and systems, and a range of multi-million dollar research initiatives on alternative transportation. Some relate to battery-powered vehicles, and others to electric cars that could be powered by hydrogen fuel cells. The two primary obstacles to making hydrogen fuel cell cars more practical are the cost of hydrogen and new technologies needed to store it, and OSU is working in both arenas.
The university is also a leader in new and innovative forms of nuclear power, which could provide the electricity needed for battery-powered electric cars. And one type of "super hot" nuclear reactor now being studied at OSU has the potential to directly separate water into its hydrogen and oxygen components, which could provide low-cost hydrogen to power automobile fuel cells.
Smaller electric and hybrid electric vehicles are already in heavy use at the OSU Motor Pool, and are the most requested vehicles in the fleet. Use of high mileage, hybrid vehicles has been a major cost saver for the university, officials say.

Iraq: Kurdistan Islamic Union Responds To Attacks
Mas'ud Barzani, president of Iraq's Kurdish Region (epa) Four people were killed on 6 December during an attack on the offices of the Kurdistan Islamic Union (KIU). Among those killed was a senior KIU official. In an interview conducted on 7 December and aired on the same day, RFE/RL's Radio Free Iraq (RFI) asked a member of the KIU's leadership, Abu Bakr Karwani, for the bloc's response to the attacks in Dahuk, capital of one of three Kurd-controlled governorates, and in five other towns in the region. With Iraqis preparing to go to the polls to vote in parliamentary elections on 15 December, RFI also asked about the possible impact on Kurdish political dialogue after the vote.
Karwani: Our position was clearly outlined in the statement that the Kurdistan Islamic Union issued. We strongly condemn the attacks against our offices in the Bahdinan region [which falls within the Dahuk governorate], which we labeled brazen and unjustifiable.
RFI: Can these acts be seen as a violation of the law on electoral campaigning? What will your reaction be?
Karwani: I think the definition of a violation is clear, and this has been an outright violation. This is a clear and scandalous violation. Violence was used, people killed, and some 30 injured, with others arrested.
At this very moment, members of the Kurdistan Islamic Union are being raided and harassed. We are therefore pursuing all peaceful measures available. We have contacted the [Kurdistan] region's president [Mas'ud Barzani], the president of the Republic of Iraq [Jalal Talabani], and the UNHCR [the UN High Commissioner for Refugees]. The leadership of the Kurdistan Islamic Union will gather to decide what steps and measures to take next following the incidents that have affected our brothers in the region.
RFI: You hinted in your statement that the perpetrators of these acts are supporters of the Kurdistan Coalition List. Did you do anything that could have upset the List and provoked it to attack your offices?
Karwani: We do not think so. In Kurdistan, however, there is no strong history of a culture of democracy and of respect to others' opinions. That is why the mere fact that we entered the [political] scene as a list [separate from the Kurdistan Coalition List] was [perceived by some as] a crime. That proved unsettling and provocative.
RFI: Kurdish media have recently paid major attention to the Kurdistan Islamic Union's withdrawal from the Kurdistan Coalition List [in late October] and to the fact that you took part in the previous elections [in January 2005] with the List. Do you think your withdrawal may have further ramifications for Kurdish dialogue about the future of Kurdistan?
Karwani: We do not think so. We feel ourselves to be part of the people of Kurdistan and one of Kurdistan's political groupings. If we win a seat in the Iraqi parliament, we will strongly defend the justified causes of the people of Kurdistan.
Our program is clear on this: we identify ourselves with all the key causes of the [political] scene in Kurdistan. It can only be that a few people on the rival list have on occasion [chosen] to launch a psychological war or to distort the image of the Kurdistan Islamic Union […]. Our separate position in the [election] has not affected our pro-Kurdish discourse. We are one of the parties in Kurdistan. We are a civic party with a religious orientation. We have no militia or other tools of violence.

Giroux's feet slowly descended the staircase as he tried not to make any noise. The walk down the hallway took longer than it should have, but the sounds of Noka stirring in his room prevented him from moving at times. He wanted to make a quick and quiet exit. As he neared the bottom, he froze in his tracks. Lev sat on the couch facing the TV and the staircase looking wide awake as ever. Giroux involuntarily donned the look of a deer in headlights, quickly thinking whether he should turn around back upstairs or make a break for the door. Had Lev seen him? Movement broke the stillness of the scene as Lev looked up and beckoned for Giroux with a warm smile and a wave, patting the seat cushion next to him. The former lieutenant made his way across the living room with caution, looking around for any signs of the other Captains.
"Wow, you're almost as tall as Found, haha." Lev looked up at the towering blonde. "Umm... is something there in the dark? You're making me nervous." Lev noticed his eyes darting around the empty abyss of the room. The only source of light came from the television in front of Lev, casting an artificial glow around the cavernous room. "Oh my god you look like death-when was the last time you've slept?" Lev's eyes widened as Giroux approached; The young man had dark circles around puffy bloodshot eyes. Silence.
"Aren't you gonna sit and watch with me?" Lev patted the cushion again. Giroux looked at the TV. A kung fu movie was playing with yellow subtitles on the bottom of the screen. "You only missed the first few minutes-oh! That guy right there is the main character, he's all haughty and over confident, but that lady over there just kicked his ass so now he's all-" Lev began to say until Giroux sat down, his eyes boring holes into the television. The black haired dire leaned forward in his seat to take a better look at Giroux.
"Ya know, we never really spoke much before, have we?" Lev asked as he leaned back in his seat. "Which is cool, I guess you're not much of a talker. Cait was like that too for a while but he's more outspoken now." Lev blinked when a random character on screen took a flying ceramic pot to the head. "Hm... Are you alright? You're really tense right now." A person on the screen chased another up a ladder in the town square. "Wanna talk about what you've done these past weeks?" The line made Giroux brace himself for any sudden outburst of violence. He flinched when a head leaned itself against his shoulder; he was expecting a fist or a knife. "Hahaha!" Lev laughed when a pedestrian turned around and smacked several others with the board he was carrying on his shoulder. "Ahhh... We need popcorn."
"-You sure you don't want any? It's already the second bag and you haven't had a single piece." Lev frowned a little when Giroux shook his head at the offering of buttered microwaved snacks.
"...Just get it over with already." The blonde man finally spoke in a hushed tone.
"Seriously-these villains take WAY too much time gloating when they could've killed by now-"
"I mean you. Stop beating around the bush and do it already." Giroux resigned himself to whatever fate was in store for him.
"Huh? Oh. OH! Umm-how do I say this... I know I'm 'cross-platform' and all, but, and don't take this the wrong way, you're a great looking guy! But, I barely even know you and we haven't really spoken much, so I dunno if I can just skip to *THAT* part of a relationship so quickl-" Lev used his fingers for air quotations.
"Not that." Giroux flatly cut him off.
"Stop making me stew. Get your revenge over with. I attacked your guild. Make it even." Giroux stood up and placed himself between Lev and the TV, holding his arms out at the mercy of the Guild Leader. Lev flicked a piece of popcorn in the direction of Giroux's face and missed by a wide margin; he was too busy trying to look around him to see the TV.
"Kwe'reevenyou'remissinallthegoodparts!" Lev hurriedly said as he ate another handful from the bowl resting at his lap. Giroux stared at the piece of popcorn resting by his foot, then back towards Lev.
"I don't get it-"
"It only works if you face the screen-"
"You're supposed to be enraged at me-bloodthirsty even. Why aren't you?" Giroux asked frankly, more out of sheer confusion than anything else.
"Well it'd be sorta overdramatic to attack you when you're the one missing all these vicious kicks."
"...You...don't make any...sense..." Giroux gave up and fell back into his seat, slouching in sheer exhaustion. Lev slowly leaned back into his seat and resumed using Giroux's shoulder as a makeshift pillow, continuing his popcorn feast all the while.
"Hey. Hey hey hey. Hey hey hey hey hey." Lev prodded Giroux in the side with his elbow. "You're forgiven, okay? Lighten up, you're always so stern and serious all the time haha. That's why I put you with Found, I figured you two would get along and maybe he would make you loosen up. Man, you worry about everything. You think about everything too much. Slow down and live at the same speed with the rest of us, it's not so bad." Lev looked up at Giroux as he spoke. The blonde man couldn't meet his gaze and focused on the screen across from them. "Besides, it took a while but we were able to find it." Lev said before putting another fistful of popcorn into his mouth.
"Find what?"
"The red fiddle lotus." Lev plainly answered between bites.
"What?!" Giroux tried to turn his entire upper body to ask but was held down by Lev. The smaller Dire groaned as though he didn't want to lose the comfortable position he had. Giroux stared into space, dumbfounded. "...I didn't look hard enough... I should've spent my time searching like you instead of-"
"-Oh my god it was suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuch a pain to find it." Lev droned. "It wasn't even the danger of us getting killed that made it annoying, but they grow so freaking far away from this universe. Were you gonna search the Shade if you went lookin?"
"Yeah, that was the firs-"
"Good thing you didn't-it's friggin' extinct there now."

This is the trailer for the awesomely-named Birdemic, a direct-to-DVD thriller from director James Nguyen. It begins with more than a full minute of completely actionless landscape shots set to unmixed audio from the camera mic. Uh, dude? Those shouldn't be in the movie, let alone the trailer. But just when you're like, "Hey, where's the birdpocalypse I was promised?" You hit the 1:08 mark and BOOM! THERE'S THE F*CKING BIRDPOCALYPSE! That is easily the best CGI I've ever seen. It reminds me of those tales I heard about Michael Bay as a child, when he discovered you can make seagulls explode by feeding them Alka-Seltzer. All you have to do is wrap the tablets in C4 and rig them with a remote detonator.

Hello Friends!
I... have... the ... day... off. WOW! That never happens!
And I'm using it catch up on some blogging and try to recover from the adrenaline rush that I've been on lately (necessary to get me through my crazy schedule and big exams). Good news is the exams went fantastically. And tomorrow I start in the wonderful world of emergency medicine which I long ago found was where my passion lies (that and trauma).
Anyway! Last week, I was contacted by Misikko Beauty to see if I'd like to review one of their flat irons. No brainer on that one... of course I'd like to! They kindly sent me a 1.5" HANA elite 100% ceramic flat iron for review, and I kid you not, it arrived the next day on my doorstep. Talk about fast service!
So when the box arrived, I was a little shocked... I kind of figured I'd get a flat iron and that would be awesome enough. But they sent a whole big box of fun goodies along with it! It was like an early Christmas!
So the day after I stressed through two extremely hard exams, I popped open that box and gave that gorgeous flat iron a try.
Okay here's the skinny on my hair. I have a TON of it. It's always been super thick and super wavy (see my previous post for a toned-down version of "un-done hair". It has a mind of its own, and most of the time, I simply can't be bothered with trying to do it. I absolutely hate doing my hair. Just ask my mom and sister. I am super picky about hair products and tools (I've always hated hair products, except Pantene's new BB cream), and I just don't have the patience to do it. I like my hair when it's all done and curled or straightened, but with my schedule, it usually ends up being put up and out of the way. So my point is, that flat iron had a whole lot of convincing to do on this girl.
The whole package: Goodies include an eyelash curler, lipgloss, hairbrush, nail files, fabulous flat iron carrying case, rubber base mat, and of course, the best part: the professional ceramic flat iron!
|Fuzzy bathroom selfie while finishing up.
The Final Product:
I'm convinced. I love it.
So when I started using the HANA flat iron, my first thought was how easy it just slid through my hair. I have used the same flat iron since my first year of college (now quite a long time ago), and it always felt pretty rough on my hair. I had to play a little with the heat settings on my new HANA, but finally found the right one for my hair thickness. Also, I was surprised at how quick it took to actually straighten my hair. Like I said, I hate to do my hair because it always takes so long to get through all of it. It really took so much less time with the HANA. And it really seemed to bring out the shine in my hair as well. I went to church afterwards and I got compliments on how my hair looked that day, so I'm considering the HANA flat iron a huge success. And like I said, it had a lot of convincing to do!
So if you're a picky hair person like me, and are looking for a truly fabulous new flat iron or any other hair tool, check out Missiko Beauty and the HANA line on their website or Facebook page.

Has anyone you worked with ever told you that you're overreacting or being defensive? If so, you run the risk of being labeled as overly sensitive--and if that happens your co-workers may start cutting you out of the loop, and stop giving you the feedback and criticism necessary to improve your performance at work.
There are two kinds of sensitivities that undermine performance at work: sensitivity to failure and sensitivity to criticism, says Joseph Grenny, co-author of the New York Times best-sellers Crucial Conversations and Influencer: The Power to Change Anything. "The first can cause people to become risk averse or to experience destructive emotions when faced with setbacks and challenges," Grenny says. "The second can cause defensiveness, anger, and relationship conflict--or if a person is in a position of authority, it can cause them to alienate team members and adopt a controlling or authoritarian style."
In other words, folks who have trouble dealing with negative emotions from failure and criticism can potentially get in their own way in the workplace. It's important to be able to manage emotions and look for constructive criticism to keep on improving:
1. You aren't considering the context. According to Halley Bock, CEO and president of Fierce, Inc, people with hypersensitive personalities tend to misinterpret neutral, everyday comments by adding underlying, negative messages. "For example, if a co-worker simply asks someone to pass the stapler, hypersensitive employees may over-analyze the tone or facial expressions and draw the conclusion that the co-worker is angry or perturbed," Bock says.
If a colleague's comments seem a little harsh, remember that you are interpreting your environment differently. Don't be quick to assume that your co-worker must be upset with you personally--maybe she had an especially bad drive into work, has a family member who is sick, or any number of other possibilities.
2. You are reacting not responding. The difference between reacting and responding is when you're quick to react, you fail to take a moment to thoughtfully and deliberately choose how to respond. "Those who overreact to mistakes should intentionally shift their focus from obsessing about blame or attacks on self-worth to focusing exclusively and intentionally on learning," Grenny says.
When it comes to negative criticism, oversensitive people have a tendency to frame the negative feedback as malicious, Grenny says. For instance, you might justify their action by saying, "They are doing it because they're jealous. They're power hungry. They're just mean," he says. And when you catch yourself on this train of thought, stop and ask: "Why would a reasonable, rational and decent person give me this feedback?" he says.
Constructive criticism from a reliable source is a gift. It may be hard to hear, but it's a chance for you to improve and become better than ever at what you do. "If people cannot face failure, they will not innovate. If they can't embrace criticism, they will shut down feedback necessary to improving the capacity to execute well," Grenny says.
3. You find yourself frequently upset at work. There are some proactive coping methods you can take if you find yourself getting worked up frequently. Talking it out can help a lot. Start seeking a support system. "Develop relationships with a few new role-models or mentors to help you," says Susan Fignar, owner of Pur*Sue Inc., a professional training and executive coaching company. Discuss how they grow thicker skin in business and deal with difficult personalities.
Another way to deal is to focus on the positive. "If your co-worker tells you how to do something differently, don't interpret that as vindictiveness. Perhaps he or she wants you to succeed, and is giving you tips on how to do well in the company," Bock says.
Take a deep breath. Go for a run. Write. Do whatever you find cathartic, release, and move on.

Bollywood Star Rajesh Khanna in critical health condition

Rajesh Khanna, Bollywood's superstar of the 70s, has been ailing for quite some time. According to reports in the Indian media, his health has taken a turn for the worse.
Dimple, his estranged wife and Bollywood actress is constantly by his bedside. She visits him in Ashirwad, his bungalow on Mumbai's Carter Road, in the afternoon and stays till 10 at night. Rajesh Khanna and Dimple separated in 1984. They have two daughters, Twinkle and Rinkie.
"Rajeshji is unwell. He has stopped having food since the last three or four days," the 60-year-old`s manager Ashwin told reporters.
"He is not able to have his food. Khaana muh pe nahi jaa raha hai (The food is not going into his mouth)," he added, but didn`t confirm if the actor will be admitted to a hospital soon.
Earlier in April, Khanna had been admitted to hospital following uneasiness and weakness.
The veteran actor, considered Bollywood's first superstar, has acted in over 150 films. Fondly called 'Kaka' by his fans, Khanna ruled the industry in the 1960s and 1970s with films like 'Aaradhana', 'Anand', 'Bawarchi', 'Raaz' and others.

If we print more money, prices will rise such that we're no better off than we were before. To see why, we'll suppose this isn't true, and that prices will not increase much when we drastically increase the money supply. Consider the case of the United States. Let's suppose the United States decides to increase the money supply by mailing every man, woman, and child an envelope full of money. What would people do with that money? Some of that money will be saved, some might go toward paying off debt like mortgages and credit cards, but most of it will be spent.

Wouldn't We All Be Wealthier If We Printed More Money?

You're not going to be the only one who runs out to buy an Xbox. This presents a problem for Walmart. Do they keep their prices the same and not have enough Xboxes to sell to everyone who wants one, or do they raise their prices? The obvious decision would be to raise their prices. If Walmart (along with everyone else) decides to raise their prices right away, we would have massive inflation, and our money is now devalued. Since we're trying to argue this won't happen, we'll suppose that Walmart and the other retailers don't increase the price of Xboxes. For the price of Xboxes to hold steady, the supply of Xboxes will have to meet this added demand. If there are shortages, certainly the price will rise, as consumers who are denied an Xbox will offer to pay a price well in excess of what Walmart was formerly charging.

For the retail price of the Xbox not to rise, we will need the producer of the Xbox, Microsoft, to increase production to satisfy this increased demand. Certainly, this will not be technically possible in some industries, as there are capacity constraints (machinery, factory space) that limit how much production can be increased in a short period of time. We also need Microsoft not to charge retailers more per system, as this would cause Walmart to increase the price they charged to consumers, as we're trying to create a scenario where the price of the Xbox won't rise. By this logic, we also need the per-unit costs of producing the Xbox not to rise. This is going to be difficult as the companies that Microsoft buys parts from are going to have the same pressures and incentives to raise prices that Walmart and Microsoft do. If Microsoft is going to produce more Xboxes, they're going to need more man-hours of labor and obtaining these hours cannot add too much (if anything) to their per-unit costs, or else they will be forced to raise the price they charge retailers.

Wages are essentially prices; an hourly wage is a price a person charges for an hour of labor. It will be impossible for hourly wages to stay at their current levels. Some of the added labor may come through employees working overtime. This clearly has added costs, and workers are not likely to be as productive (per hour) if they're working 12 hours a day than if they're working 8. Many companies will need to hire extra labor. This demand for extra labor will cause wages to rise, as companies bid up wage rates in order to induce workers to work for their company. They'll also have to induce their current workers not to retire. If you were given an envelope full of cash, do you think you'd put in more hours at work, or less? Labor market pressures require wages to increase, so product costs must increase as well.

Why Will Prices Go Up After a Money Supply Increase?

In short, prices will go up after a drastic increase in the money supply because:

If people have more money, they'll divert some of that money to spending. Retailers will be forced to raise prices, or run out of the product.

Retailers who run out of product will try to replenish it. Producers face the same dilemma of retailers that they will either have to raise prices, or face shortages because they do not have the capacity to create an extra product and they cannot find labor at rates which are low enough to justify the extra production.

Inflation is caused by a combination of four factors:

The supply of money goes up.

The supply of goods goes down.

Demand for money goes down.

Demand for goods goes up.

We've seen why an increase in the supply of money causes prices to rise. If the supply of goods increased enough, factor 1 and 2 could balance each other out and we could avoid inflation. Suppliers would produce more goods if wage rates and the price of their inputs wouldn't increase. However, we've seen they will increase. In fact, it's likely that they'll increase to such a level where it will be optimal for the firm to produce the amount they would have if the money supply had not increased.

This gets us to why drastically increasing the money supply on the surface seems like a good idea. When we say we'd like more money, what we're really saying is we'd like more wealth. The problem is if we all have more money, collectively we're not going to be any more wealthy. Increasing the amount of money does nothing to increasing the amount of wealth or more plainly the amount of stuff in the world. Since the same number of people are chasing the same amount of stuff, we cannot on average be wealthier than we were before.

In Sunday's dining review, Cheryl Clark is wowed by The Crimson Sparrow in Hudson. Short version:
There were many elements on each plate, but never cacophony. Each grain of sea salt, sliver of fruit and shaving of nut was consciously placed for beauty and balance. …
Foie gras was formed into a silky, buttery log infused with sake and Cognac, which made it taste even more like foie gras. Bits of grapefruit, hazelnut, fig and cranberry helped pull back the shivery richness to a bearable level of pleasure ($16). We ordered a purple curve of muscular octopus tentacle ($15) largely to find out how they were going to pull off serving it with white chocolate. The trick was in textural contrast, with slightly dehydrated, salty shavings of cauliflower adding chewy, crisp earthiness to the sweet cephalopod and rich fatty sauce. A few delicate arancini (rice balls) and pine nuts helped make the dish stick-to-your-ribs wintery comfort food.

AfriGeneas Brick Wall Forum
Harriss Family Halifax County, NC
Hello, I have been trying to find my ggg grandfather Alfred Harriss and his family in North Carolina for quite some time--I do believe that I have hit a brick wall. I find them in the 1880 Census--but can only find the wife Holland Harriss in 1870...here's what I have:
1880 United States Census
Harriss, Alfred 57 self NC
1900 United States Census
Harriss, Alfred 75 self
My brick wall is that I can not find any records on Alfred Harriss, his mother (Millie) and or his children (Rufus, Winnie, Thomas, and Joseph) beyond 1880. I have searched census, county, Freedman Bureau records.
Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Nitrogen from algae | On a farm in New Mexico, algae are fed and cared for like livestock
MORIARTY, N.M. — The next source of fertilizer might be growing in a tank in New Mexico.
All it takes is low-cost plant food, water and sunlight.
Researcher and entrepreneur Calvin Hildebrand is rolling the dice on a natural source of nitrogen fertilizer from algae.
He's conducting his work on old Route 66, in the dry soil of New Mexico where irrigation is the only way to grow crops.
Hildebrand has been working with local farmer Sam Shook to provide an alternative to traditional nitrogen fertilizers.
"He has a new pivot and I have new concept," said Hildebrand.
Billions of scenedesmus green algae are growing in a pair of 10,000 litre poly tanks. The algae was harvested from the edge of a pond on a local cattle ranch.
"We know these are native to the area and they both eat and fix nitrogen," he said.
The algae are maintained in a carefully monitored environment inside a solar powered facility.
Air and carbon dioxide are fed to the algae using pumps. The tanks are shaded lightly from the desert sun to keep them warm, but not so warm as to kill the organisms.
The samples have been grown in the soils lab at a college in Santa Fe. The batch that Hildebrand is now working with has been growing for four months. However, in three weeks he can produce enough to spread on a field, in this case about 24,000 litres, along with irrigation water.
"We can produce them faster, but this is a very early stage in a production model," he said about the collection of tanks, pumps, valves and pipes on Shook's farm.
"They take a lot of attention, but once the growth process is underway, it is no different than raising some livestock. You need to feed them and ensure their environment is appropriate and they grow.
"These critters just take some of their food from the air and fix it into something they need, nitrogen," Hildebrand said.
"Each one of those little algae is a little bundle of NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium)."
Grid soil sampling is monitoring the effectiveness of the algae as a liquid fertilizer on the pivot-fed, 160-acre field, including one, two and three foot levels.
"Samples are tested at the (soil) lab in Amarillo, (Texas), so we can get objective measures of what is happening in the soil, not just the crop."
He is also developing a remote monitoring system that will send a message to the operator if any of the growth parameters are exceeded.
"We monitor pH, nitrogen, temperature, not unlike looking after food processing systems or a distillery," he said.
The prototype uses two grams of carbon dioxide for every gram of algae.
"It runs on sunlight and it sequesters carbon dioxide. Sounds like the crop we are hoping to grow with it," he said, waving at a recently harvested triticale field.
Hildebrand said algae are known for their ability to remove nitrogen not only from the air but also from water and soil.
Land has been irrigated for generations in the intermountain area near Moriarty, N.M., east of Albuquerque, and nitrogen has moved down through porous soil into the local aquifer.
"There is a desire to rid the soil of those issues and we are hoping that the micro-algae will do that, too," Hildebrand said about his company, Innovative Organic Solutions International.
He said investors in the project include a New Zealand environmental industry foundation.
"These types of businesses appeal to a variety of investors. A large farmer in Texas wants the technology for his own use. Others want it as a business opportunity. And of course, then there are green investors looking for something sustainable," he said.
"Me, I'm an old guy now. I was in the real estate development business. I divided up a lot of land into urban lots … I'd like to give something back to the world before my time is up."
The company plans to offer the technology to distributors on a franchise basis.
"We're going to keep most of the research open source, and offer technical support that will make it financially appealing," he said.
"It isn't limited to southern regions. It could be operated in greenhouses and used in northern climates, but this a very low cost area with all our sunshine."

How to Build a Solid Online Brand
Own and Manage the Company's Website
The first step in creating a good online brand is to have a website, and to have one for the business owner's name. A website with an exact person's or business' name generally ranks first during searches for that name. If the company's website is #1 in the SERPs, it gets the most clicks, and many people do not search any further.
Start Some Blogs
The company's main blog does not have to be the only one. Because of Google's Direct Connect and Google+ authorship, company owners can tell the search engine that any blog is related to the business. If the company wants to rank some blogs for its name, the UK http://www.usefulenglish.net/story/116861/#discuss branding pdf should link them to the owner's Google+ profile through Google authorship.
Establish a Social Media Presence
Any business should have a presence on social media, and owners should create several profiles and keep them updated. It makes sense to build an audience on these social sites, and to consider each connection to be a link to the business owner's profile. The more connections a page has, the better it will rank in search results.
Claim Local Profiles
If the business is local, its owner should claim local directory listings and profiles, or create them if they're non-existent. Sites like Yahoo Local, Merchant Circle, Yelp and others help companies with local search marketing and brand building.
Create Guest Posts
Where positive brand marketing and consulting are concerned, business owners shouldn't look for one-time opportunities. Rather, they should write for sites that have strong author bio pages, or one that allows the creation of a custom profile. The more visible a site, the more likely that the business owner's author page will rank high in the search engine results.
Building a good online brand takes time, effort and focus. However, an online marketing agency can help simplify the process. By following the tips above and by hiring outside help, companies can recover from bad publicity quickly and easily.
