Dallas, TX - Heritage Auction Galleries' Sports Collectibles division will present a fabulous array of vintage sports memorabilia and trading cards in their upcoming May 6, 2006 Signature Auction to be held in Dallas, Texas.
"This figures to be one of the most exciting auction events of the year," said Chris Ivy, Director of Heritage Sports. "A very large percentage of the material we've located is fresh to the hobby, and often one-of-a-kind."
"This is certainly true of the personal collection of sporting legend Jim Thorpe, which came to us from a close friend of the Thorpe family. One incredible lot features the only known game worn Carlisle equipment, a helmet and pair of cleats, worn by the school's greatest legend."
"Fresh to the collecting hobby and clearly the finest of its kind is a remarkable signed baseball bearing the autographs of the most famous celebrity couple of all time, Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe," said Ivy. "It ranks as one of the most appealing signed baseballs in the hobby."
"Just in time for the fortieth anniversary of the most historic game in college basketball history comes a jersey worn by star guard Willie Worsley in the 1966 NCAA Finals. The heroic victory of five African-American starters over all-white powerhouse Kentucky was the subject of the 2006 Disney blockbuster film Glory Road."
(Lot 19210)
"Hardcourt fans will also fall in love with one of the finest Wilt Chamberlain game worn jerseys ever place upon the auction block, showing heavy wear from the end of the Stilt's Hall of Fame career with the Los Angeles Lakers."
(Lot 19211)
"Game worn jersey collectors who focus on baseball won't want to miss the incredible pinstriped New York Yankees flannel worn by Hall of Famer Phil Rizzuto during his second season in the Majors," Ivy noted. "The rare WWII "Health" patch on the sleeve is worth a fortune on its own."
"The earliest known Ty Cobb game used bat, dating from the 1906 to 1907 era, is certainly one of the most remarkable offerings of vintage lumber to reach the auction block in some time."
"We're also thrilled to present an exceptionally rare game used baseball that saw action during the notorious Black Sox World Series of 1919." Ivy said. "Vintage notations on the baseball leave no doubt as to the sphere's brush with baseball infamy."
"Happier World Series days are recalled with the presentation of the 1924 World Series victor's pendant presented to Washington Senators catcher Muddy Ruel, whose footprint on home plate in the bottom of Game Seven's twelfth inning sealed the team's sole Championship.
"High-quality baseball photography is a solid theme in this auction, with an even finer example of the 1911 Addie Joss benefit game panoramic photograph that set a record price in our October 2005 auction being made available to the collecting public for the first time."
"We believe that the 1928 New York Yankees panoramic photo we located in St. Petersburg, Florida, less than one mile from the spring training grounds where it was shot, is the only such example ever seen within the hobby. And the condition is simply phenomenal," Ivy said.
"Also surviving many decades in magnificent condition is a phenomenal 1914 large studio photograph of Hall of Fame pitcher Christy Mathewson, inscribed and signed to a fraternity brother in strong vintage ink. It certainly ranks as one of the most appealing Mathewson signed artifacts on earth."
"There's something for collectors of every discipline in this auction," said Ivy, "and this is only a preview of the treasures it holds. We also have a large and beautiful run of early New York Yankees World Series press pins acquired from the estate of the team treasurer, and a collection of eight 19th century tobacco card advertising posters we located on the Baltic coast of Sweden. And, of course, there are scores of quality offerings of autographs, game used pieces and trading cards here as well. I'd invite every sports fan to take a look at www.HeritageAuctions.com/Sports to see the rest of the marvels offered in this exciting event."

2012 World Endurance Championship calendar announced
This topic contains 23 replies, has 13 voices, and was last updated by Anonymous 4 years, 7 months ago.
12th November 2011, 7:35 at 7:35 am #130471
The FIA has finally released the calendar for the 2012 World Endurance Championship:
Sebring 12 Hours (March 17)
Spa 6 Hours (May 5)
Le Mans 24 Hours (June 16-17)
Silverstone 6 Hours (August 25)
Interlagos (September 16)
Fuji 6 Hours (September 30)
Bahrain 6 Hours (October 20)
China (November 11/18)Perhaps most notably, the Bahrain 6 Hours clashes with the Petit Le Mans.
12th November 2011, 8:02 at 8:02 am #184477wow, that bahrain clash is horrible..
other than that, it looks ok (especially that interlagos race! endurance around there would be interesting)
12th November 2011, 8:07 at 8:07 am #184478Yeah, a good calendar despite Bahrain. Not just the clash, but going there in the first place is bad enough.
It would be nice to see Monza on the calendar, or maybe Road America or Road Atlanta.
12th November 2011, 16:31 at 4:31 pm #184479
AnonymousSo they're having an endurance race (probably on the awful endurance circuit) at Bahrain that clashes with one of the best endurance races on the calendar.
12th November 2011, 16:33 at 4:33 pm #184480Putting a six-hour race at Bahrain up against the fantastic Petit Le Mans is a hilariously dumb move.
That aside, this is a pretty good calendar.
China is going to be Shanghai, presumably? That and Bahrain make it a pretty weak end to the season.
But the bottom line is it's great to see a proper endurance racing championship again.
12th November 2011, 16:47 at 4:47 pm #184481The track in China has been TBA last year and this year for a long time and they picked Zhuhai on both occasions anyway. So it's a safe bet that they'll be back there for the third year running.
The Bahrain/Petit Le Mans clash is probably the worst thing about the calendar, but the rest of it sounds rather good. When it comes to F1 races, the only confirmed clash between the WEC and F1 calendars is Sebring.
12th November 2011, 23:38 at 11:38 pm #184482Putting a six-hour race at Bahrain up against the fantastic Petit Le Mans is a hilariously dumb move.
The organisers reckon "they didn't have a choice".
China is going to be Shanghai, presumably? That and Bahrain make it a pretty weak end to the season.
Shanghai or Zhuhai.
And while they might not be the best circuits for Formula 1, endurance racing is a very different beast.
12th November 2011, 23:47 at 11:47 pm #184483I wonder if they will use the Paddock Circuit for Bahrain? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e0/Bahrain_International_Circuit–Paddock_Circuit.svg/1000px-Bahrain_International_Circuit–Paddock_Circuit.svg.png
13th November 2011, 0:01 at 12:01 am #184484I don't see why they would. V8 Supercars used to race there, and it wasn't very good. Even for Bahrain. It just removed all the interesting corners from the circuit.
13th November 2011, 0:32 at 12:32 am #184485Sounds good to me, all the classic tracks seem to have come too early though. Then again, not sure I'd want to be racing Silverstone or Spa in mid-November. I'm quite surprised there isn't a race at Monza, that's something of a staple for endurance series isn't it?
13th November 2011, 2:39 at 2:39 am #184486@george – the series is still in its infancy. Since this is now an FIA-sanctioned championship, they will have the opportunity to expand further. But first, the series needs to be established. I do not think it is conicidence that the first four races of the championship are all established events, and of the last four, three are brand new and one is being revivied (the Fuji 1000km race has not been held regularly since 1992). Once 2013 comes around, they could reasonably open the championship up further to include more races. They just want to use 2012 to get established.
13th November 2011, 6:40 at 6:40 am #184487@prisoner-monkeys If they wanted to use 2012 to get established, why didn't they just use the calender from this year? The 2011 ILMC calender used most of the potential 2012 WEC races anyways.
I can understand the dates being a conflict, but why should Bahrain (who, to my knowledge, has never had a major endurance event) get the nod over Petit LeMans (which is an established event)? I guess it all comes down to who's got the most money >:(
13th November 2011, 7:00 at 7:00 am #184488If they wanted to use 2012 to get established, why didn't they just use the calender from this year?
They have. Five of the events are taken from the ILMC calendar – Sebring, Spa, la Sarthe, Silverstone and (possibly) Zhuhai (WEC organisers have indicated that this is their preferred circuit). Monza was left off the calendar because the organisers decided to limit the series to three races in Europe.
can understand the dates being a conflict, but why should Bahrain get the nod over Petit LeMans?
The organisers of the WEC knew they were not going to Petit Le Mans from the outset. If they did, the race at Petit Le Mans would see the ALMS grid and the WEC grid join together for the race, and the circuit wouldn't be able to handle a grid of over fifty cars and maintain the FIA's circuit grading. Besides, they also wanted to limit the calendar to one race per country. If Petit Le Mans was included, Sebring would not be.
13th November 2011, 9:08 at 9:08 am #184489Is this going to be on tv at all?
13th November 2011, 10:47 at 10:47 am #184490It also looks like the 6 hours of Silverstone will be the event that is used for the support Formular Renault 3.5 race, after the WSR calendar was confirmed with no full event at Silverstone, as it has since 2007.

We all want to always look beautiful, and healthy. Especially if we are talking about the hair issue, we would also want our hair always looks gorgeous and glowing. But with age or other factors sometimes we are disturbed by the appearance of the gray. Below are some tips to prevent gray hair.
Toasted pecans and then mashed, until oil came out, rubbed on the hair and let sit about 15 minutes, after that rinse thoroughly and wash it.
Coconut oil is a traditional hair tonic in various parts of the world. Already evident from the many people that coconut oil can eliminate white hair from the head.
Rub a mixture of coconut oil and lime juice on the hair, then massage into scalp evenly. Gently massage until you feel relaxed and calm. Let stand for 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
Mix one gram of black pepper or ground coffee with 100 grams of unsweetened yogurt. After that, apply gently to the scalp and hair. Then wash with warm water and shampoo after 1 hour. Do this every week and will get good results. In addition to eliminating the hoar, this mixture can make your hair shinier and prevents dandruff. And besides makes your hair blacker and darker it's also can maintain your hair color.
Mixture of pumpkin juice and sesame oil or olive oil in addition can help hair healthy, shiny and thick, but it can also prevent grey hair.
Add your protein intake with wheat, beans, fish, meat, and chicken. Vitamin A and B as well as minerals iron and zinc are very useful against the hoar, while the cauliflower, cabbage, liver, yogurt, beef and almonds provide nutrients needed by the hair. Eating protein makes hair texture shines again, with both natural and can restore pigment and eliminate gray hair.
Crabs, mussels and sunflower seeds contain copper required to produce melanin. Copper deficiency makes melanin production decreases and causes gray hair appears, with more melanin produced, can eliminate the hoar.
Another way is to use a concentrated tea and add a tablespoon of salt into the tea. Pour evenly on hair while massaging the scalp until you feel comfortable. Leave for about an hour, then rinse your hair with cold water but do not use shampoo, because the properties will be lost. The point is we can use some foods to prevent hoar or gray hair from inside.
the final way if your white hair is very disturbing your daily life, then you can use hair dye. But with black hair dye is forbidden for Muslims. When using temporary hair dye, it is important to keep the moisture and also avoid the rain so the dye does not fade, for those of you who have thin hair and messy, so be careful when coloring hair because if you do not you color the hair perfectly, it could likely cause the gray.
Those are some tips to prevent gray hair, may be useful for all of us.
The point is we can use some foods to prevent hoar or gray hair from inside.

Longtime Lucas County Administrator Edward Ciecka has been forced out of his job, the first major personnel change since a dramatic shift in the board of commissioners one year ago.
Commissioner Maggie Thurber said yesterday Mr. Ciecka is the "victim" of a board that added two members last year.
"It s very difficult when you re trying to serve three bosses who are very different individuals and have different management styles. ... It s a very delicate balance. I think it was easier under the previous board because of how that board handled business."
Mr. Ciecka, 54, has been county administrator since 1984 and has worked for the commissioners since he was hired as an assistant administrator in 1979. His power is second only to the commissioners in carrying out the wide-ranging business of county government.
He said he will submit a letter of resignation to the commissioners Monday but doesn t plan to leave until March.
He would not comment on whether he was being forced to leave, but said 20 years is a long tenure for a county administrator because administrators serve at the will of a political board.
"We ve had a lot of change in the past year, not the least of which is that we ve had two new board members. .. It s probably time for a fresh perspective - maybe a change in leadership will help the county out," Mr. Ciecka said.
Harry Barlos, president of the commissioners, met with Mr. Ciecka yesterday to talk about his leaving. He said Mr. Ciecka is "not necessarily a casualty" of the new board that added Ms. Thurber and Tina Skeldon Wozniak at the beginning of 2003. But he acknowledged that the "dynamics" of the new board played a role.
"After the first year of the [new] board, it became clear that he s had 20 good years as county administrator and he understands it s time to seek other opportunities," Mr. Barlos said. "He can take his wealth of skills to another public agency or to the private sector. I wish him well."
Ms. Wozniak said Mr. Ciecka has been a dedicated public servant who has provided "great service to the community." She said that "change is inevitable" in county government.
She said the commissioners are trying to make decisions that will best serve the community.
"I think you ve seen a lot of questioning over the last year in county government. A lot of things are being addressed and that will continue to happen," Ms. Wozniak said.
Mr. Ciecka is paid about $93,000 a year. The commissioners have not formally decided who will replace him.
John Alexander, the commissioners chief of staff, is a possible replacement. Mr. Barlos said Mr. Alexander, who served as chief of staff in former Mayor Carty Finkbeiner s administration, will have "more responsibilities if selected."
Mr. Alexander said it would be up to the commissioners if he were to replace Mr. Ciecka as administrator.
"I have had no formal discussions with the commissioners about my future role with the commissioners," he said. "I would anticipate, in light of Ed leaving, that those formal discussions may be forthcoming."
Mr. Ciecka, a Chicago native, graduated from DePaul University and earned a master s degree in political science from the University of Toledo.

Identification of a bacterium.Moderator: BioTeam
2 posts
• Page 1 of 1
Identification of a bacterium.In 1985, a 0.5-mm cell was discovered in surgeonfish and named
Epulopiscium fishelsoni. It was presumed to be a protozoan. In 1993, researchers determined that Epulopiscium was actually a gram-positive bacterium.Why do you suppose this organism was initially identified as a protozoan? What evidence would change the classification to bacterium? I don't know would it be the shape and whether it shows up to be gram positive in a test?
Probably because it
1. Is gigantic for a bacterial cell. 2. Has strange morphological features, like invaginations, vesicles, and tubules. 3. Reproduces strangely. It was found to be bacterial after rRNA sequencing. http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v3 ... 239a0.html

I'm not a fan of powdered foundations but I tried this one and I like the look of it. I use radiant which is a neutral colour. The one thing that bugs me is that these powders can get messy.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Cool
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium

I am so sad that this product is discontinued! I cannot find a color to match my skin as good as the 7w did! Also I love the subtle color & natural flawless coverage this powder gave. If anyone has recommendations on something this better or very similar I would greatly appreciate it!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool
Hair: Red, Relaxed, Fine

I feel like Arbonne tried way too hard to get the sunkissed, glowy look with this and as a result overdid it. It is very shimmery under every lighting. I got it because I was looking to try something other than my Mary Kay mineral foundation but went straight back to my Mary Kay one after trying this. I used this product twice to be completely convinced it's something I can't wear. I don't know if it's any better on more tan skin tones, but for pale types it's definitely not a foundation I recommend.
The upside to the product is cute packaging that seems quite durable.

Hated this stuff. Leaves an awful shimmery sheen. I tossed mine right into the garbage. Overpriced, too

Skin: Dry, Medium, Warm
Hair: Black, Straight, Fine
Eyes: Black
I like this makeup. It gives a natural and youthful look. I used it to even out my skin tone and it works well. At first I didn't like it because it didn't stay long, but I found out that it was because I didn't use a primer. Once I did, it fixed the problem and stayed on all day long.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Other
Great finish! I use this on top of my Armani foundation so perhaps it is too sheer to wear alone???
I like how it isn't completely matte, yet there isn't exactly a shimmer in it. Stays for hours!!! Went to a wedding in 118 degree heat and my face still looked good at 1 am!
Love the arbonne liquid foundation too, waiting for my current to run out so I can pick it up!
Age: 19-24

I agree with many of the reviews that i have read about arbonne and disagree with others aswell... their are reasons for why your skin breaks out when using another product especially if you have never used it before considering its botanical aswell... obviously it will lead to a break out! I have to say i have combination skin and have used every single product by arbonne ... i admit i broke out the first few weeks but that was one of the best detox my skin has had in a long time! but i do agree with many when they say it is well over priced for what it comes in! make up brushes are a big NO NO for me with arbonne to harsh on the skin ... doesnt pick up the mineral foundation... and again agree with the lack of color pigment charts that they provide... what i do love about it is that unlike many it was blendable for me..... its definately not a type of make up u can use on the go like the bobbi brown stick foundation but if u have a little time to spare u can achieve that flawless longlasting look with arbonne .... and for those who really think it makes them look greasy etc.... sounds to me like u dont know how to wear ur make up! get yourself a really good setting foundation powder .... even with mineral makeup u need to set that foundation or else it will look greasy and will melt off your face. its all about the setting foundation .... just dust it over and WOW :D will look fab ... no matter how oily based the foundation... this is coming from a former make up artist. oko

Loved this foundation! Be sure you are using a makeup primer & use a mineral powder brush apply in a circular motion.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Dry, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Blue
I was expecting a lot from my first Arbonne purchase. First of all, it is very difficult to even fit a brush into the sifter area. The opening is too small. This foundation doesn't cover all that well, even for a mineral foundation. It didn't last very long at all. I'm pretty disappointed to be honest.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Very Oily, Olive, Warm
Hair: Red, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
Let me start off by saying that I have very oily acne prone skin. I went to an Arbonne party that a friend of mine was having, the rep made it seem like this was going to perform miracles for me, she was very high pressure and pretty much forced me to order this! She sold me the primer and the mineral powder. This stuff is NOT cheap!
I received my order about a week and a half later. The first day I tried it I was not impressed. The primer feels good going on your skin, however I found that it really broke my skin out (this is all on day 1!) The mineral powder is not buildable and has a slight orange tint to it. By around 10am I was looking greasy already, more than usual for some reason. I found myself having to re-apply this 3 or 4 times. By the end of the day I resembled an old lady, the powder had melted off in some areas and settled in others. This lady keeps pressuring me to have a party, needless to say I will not be having one! This product failed to live up to the price and the inconvienence of having to wait for it. If you are looking for a good mineral powder I suggest BE matte!

Victoria Bylin and Free Books!
Before we meet today's author, I'd like to announce today's book-drawing winner. The signed copy of Donna Schillinger's book, On My Own Now, goes to:
azv444@ . . .
Congratulations! I'll contact you today for your snail mail address, and we'll get your book to you right away. I encourage readers to keep commenting and/or subscribe at right in order to participate in future book give-aways!
And now let's meet novelist Victoria Bylin, author of The Maverick Preacher (Steeple Hill Love Inspired Historicals, February 2009).
Victoria Bylin writes for Love Inspired Historicals. Her next book, The Maverick Preacher, will be released in February 2009 and is a prequel to The Bounty Hunter's Bride (2008). Prior to joining LIH, Victoria wrote five westerns for Harlequin Historicals. Abbie's Outlaw was a 2006 Rita Finalist in the Best Short Historical category. She's also finaled in the Holt, the National Readers Choice Awards and the Bookseller's Best Awards.
Vicki really does believe in "happily ever after." She and her husband have been married forever and have two grown sons. Both are college students who occasionally return to northern Virginia for home-cooked meals. She and her husband also own a hilarious beagle/Jack Russell terrier named Hartley.
Vicki, tell us a bit more about the plot of The Maverick Preacher.
Here's the back-cover copy:
A Man on a Mission . . . Once upon a time, he was one of Boston's most righteous ministers. Now Joshua Blue is a guilt-stricken man scouring the West to find the sister he drove away with his pride. When the trail leads him to Denver, a beautiful boardinghouse owner might be the key to unlocking past secrets . . .
By sheer determination, Adelaide Clark has raised her young son alone. When Joshua arrives at her door, Adie fears he'll tear her family apart. As she gets to know the charming preacher, however, she sees he's come to make amends for past wrongs. Soon his strong faith sparks Adie's long-buried hope for a future with a God-sent partner at her side . . .
Which character in your novel most interested you while you wrote? Why?
I loved writing about Reverend Joshua Blue. Before I had a word of the story, I had the title. I could see a troubled man dressed in black, riding alone in search of something . . . or someone. Josh has made big mistakes, and he's paid for them. By the grace of God, he's come back from a disaster and is determined to make things right. I loved telling his story because I really do believe in big turn-arounds. There's not a problem in the world God can't fix.
Why will readers enjoy your novel?
At its core, The Maverick Preacher is a romance. It's about a woman who's given up hope of ever being loved, and a man who needs a family. Josh and Adie have a hard time. She has secrets and he's made mistakes. Yet they both triumph. There's always hope. I hope this book brings that inspiration to readers in all stages of life.
There's nothing quite as rewarding as hearing from a reader who feels that kind of hope after reading one of your books, is there? So, Vicki, if you were the casting director for the film version of your novel, who would play your lead roles?
Johnny Depp would make an excellent Joshua Blue.
Adie Clarke has reddish hair and is young, about twenty years old. Can I go back in time and pick Julia Roberts?
Sure you can go back in time--you're in charge here! That's one of my favorite things about writing fiction, the way we get to imagine situations and details as we want them to be. What facet of the writing craft comes easiest to you, Vicki? Explain.
Editing comes easiest by far. I love the hunt for the perfect phrase, the perfect word. I'm a puzzle addict. I do crosswords, cross sums, anacrostics, anything in a Dell-brand puzzle book. Editing is like assembling a verbal puzzle. I enjoy putting small pieces together and discovering a bigger picture.
Hmm. You sound like you'd make an interesting mystery writer, too. What do you struggle with in your writing?
First drafts are hard for me. A blank computer screen is one of the scariest things in the world. I've had to learn to put aside my internal editor and "just tell the story." My first drafts are truly dreadful. They're poorly written, riddled with cliches and just plain dull. But they accomplish one thing . . . they put the puzzle pieces in the box. The editor arrives and story starts to unfold.
Ah, so you're working the puzzles with your current writing, as well. Now I want to ask you to advise new authors for a moment. This month we're taking a look at point of view. Say a new writer tells you she's going to write her novel using the omniscient point of view. In three sentences or less, give her your thoughts on that idea.
If you love writing in omniscient POV, go for it. But be aware . . . it's unique. Being unique will set you apart in a good way or a bad way, depending on the quality of your story.
Choose an inanimate object to represent you. Explain what you have in common with that object.
How about my 2002 Toyota Camry? It's got some dings in the paint, but it runs great. It's low maintenance and is happy to wait in the parking lot while I browse bookstores.
What is the last book you read that impacted you? How did it affect you?
I recently finished Francine Rivers' Mark of the Lion trilogy. These books inspired me to be bold in telling a story. Where darkness abounds, light abounds much more. By describing both darkness and light as fully as she did, Ms. Rivers gave a resonant voice to the fullness of the Christian experience. I'm in awe of these books.
What are you working on now?
I'm under contract for four more Love Inspired Historicals. The next is called Kansas Courtship. It's set in 1859 Kansas in a town devastated by a tornado. It's part of a continuity called "After the Storm." After that, I'll be writing the next book in the series called The Women of Swan's Nest. The Maverick Preacher is the first in this series. The next book is almost done and will be followed by two more.

Thank you for stopping by. Aren't book drawings fun? I'll be sure to send the book to the winner a.s.a.p..
Writers aren't supposed to have favorites--it's like mothers and children--but "Maverick Preacher" will always be special because it honors the many ministers / preachers / pastors / teachers who have enriched my life.
P.S. to Trish! Thank you for inviting me to your blog. It's a happening place! - February 9, 2009 at 3:34 PM

Yellow tongue usually occurs as a result of a harmless buildup of dead skin cells on the tiny projections (papillae) on the surface of your tongue. Most commonly this occurs when your papillae become enlarged and bacteria in your mouth produce colored pigments.
Also, the longer-than-normal papillae can easily trap cells that have shed, which become stained by tobacco, food or other substances. Mouth breathing or dry mouth may also be linked to yellow tongue.
Other causes of a yellow tongue may include, for example:

Indirect Tax Distortions in a Europe of Shopkeepers
The changed circumstances of the EU after 1992 have a given rise to concern about possible indirect tax competition and related economic distortions. This paper develops a model, incorporating both a production and a retail sector, to examine the effects of different VAT regimes. This model is applied to data on consumer behaviour in the proximity of the Ireland-UK and the Denmark-German borders showing that the potential size of ?border? areas, where distortion may be expected, is relatively small. The paper suggests that there are very limited incentives for governments to act strategically in choosing their indirect tax rates.

News Anchor Can't Stop Laughing During Story of Swimming Cat [VIDEO]
This is funny! A news anchor in Roanoke, Virginia was reporting a story about a cat that is swimming to lose weight.
She holds it together for about 10 seconds then can't stop laughing. I must admit the poor wet cat in a life vest is priceless!

Skin Cancer |
Bulous Pemphigoid10/10/2008 |
Is there any specific diet or herbal supplements that can help cope with this condition? Can the blisters become cancerous? I have used oral steroids (Prednisone) and topical streroid (Triamcinolone Acetonide) but the condition persists and generally not worsening. Blisters on two toes: bleeding nose; mouth sores have been appearing for about a year.

ZTE Grand X pictures and hands-on
Pocket-lintThe new ZTE Grand X is the first genuinely powerful phone we have seen from the traditionally budget manufacturer. Priced at £189 handset only, or £32 a month from Virgin media, it is an affordable way of getting hold of Ice Cream Sandwich.
In the hand, the ZTE has a decent build quality, not unlike that of the Galaxy Nexus, with a textured back and rounded bottom. The four Android keys seem responsive - although from what we could gather, don't light up, which could be a problem when using the handset in the dark. The 1GHz Tegra 2 chip and 512MB of RAM ensure the phone ticks along nicely, admittedly it is helped however by ZTE's approach to Android which is entirely Vanilla.
Rather bizarrely, some of the stock ICS apps have been downgraded, such as the media player, which runs on Gingerbread. The rest, like the 720p-capable 5-megapixel camera, works well enough. The front 0.3-megapixel snapper does leave something to be desired, but being included on a handset of this price is a plus point.
Offering 4GB of internal memory expandable using microSD is a nice touch, as is the 4.3 inch 960 x 540 screen which seems - from our brief play with the phone - to be a lot better than those typically found on mid-range handsets. The viewing angles didn't appear great but colours were certainly nice and saturated.
No NFC for the handset unfortunately although ZTE did say it was something it was looking into for future phones. We gave the speaker a brief blast and, helped along with Dolby Mobile, audio was better than most although the environment in which we tested the handset was too noisy to make any real judgement.
A solid piece of kit then from ZTE and some decent-value hardware for those on the hunt for an affordable ICS handset. We can't help but think, however, that at £32 per month on contract there is plenty else available which is better.

Beam began as a solution to our own frustrations with remote work. Despite the variety of existing technologies like email, chat, and videoconferencing, we found that our remote team members felt isolated, things got lost in translation, and calling multiple meetings for daily work was disruptive. Then it hit us: What if our distributed team could just be together?
Collaboration would be so much easier, and our team would be much more efficient and culturally cohesive. We thought, surely if we felt this pain, others were feeling it, too. Inspired, we imagined what effortless smart presence would look like, and set to work creating it.
Scott Hassan created Suitable Technologies with the goal of redefining presence, by giving people the power to choose when and where to be present, regardless of geographic location. Prior to Suitable, Scott founded Willow Garage, combining his belief in open source technology and his passion for bringing robotics into everyday life.
Scott has been a driving force behind some of the most influential Internet companies and projects. He was the founder of eGroups (now Yahoo! Groups) and was the key software architect and developer of Google, Alexa Internet and the Stanford Digital Library. Scott invests in start-ups that aim to make fundamental quality of life improvements for citizens around the world.
Bo Preising oversees all product development and operations at Suitable Technologies. Bo has more than twenty years experience helping to build and grow successful technology and life science businesses. He is responsible for setting and executing the company's product strategy. Previously, he was the COO of Curexo Technology Corporation, maker of one of the first robotic surgery systems also known as RoboDoc.
He was also the COO for Consumer Genetics and has held executive positions in sales, marketing, business and product development with Technology Ventures Corp., DataSweep, WorkCard, OUR Scientific International, LifeChart.com, and Accuray. Bo was a postdoctoral researcher in mechanical engineering at the University of California at Davis, where he also received his Ph.D. and M.S. in biomedical engineering. He received his B.S. in bioengineering from UC San Diego.
Milan leads the overall supply chain, manufacturing, and support functions for Suitable Technologies.
Milan joined Suitable from Realization Technologies where he led multi-million dollar client engagements at multi-national companies such as GE, Siemens, Lufthansa, Delta Airlines, NASA and ABB. Previously, Milan was the Business Manager for the Enterprise Software and Services division at Applied Materials. Milan was also co-founder and Vice President of Marketing at Atma Software, which is now part of Oracle. Milan received his M.B.A. from the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University and his B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Arizona.

Jimmy Fallon & Friends: The Pro Bowl Shuffle
Just before the Chicago Bears' dominating 46-10 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XX, the Chicago Bears Shuffling Crew recorded a synth-backed rap song that's lived in music and sports immortality over the past 25 years. The bravado-laced song sold more than 500,000 copies and rose to number 41 on the charts, and it also raised $300,000 for charity.
Two and a half decades later the gang over at Late Night With Jimmy Fallon updated the classic, cranking out another one of its clever sketches: The Pro Bowl Shuffle. The clip stars Fallon as Tom Brady, Will Arnett as Brett Favre, Bashir Salahuddin as Mike Vick, A.D. Miles as Eli Manning and Horatio Sanz as Troy Palomalu. As has been the case for years now, Fallon's got the goods:
The original Super Bowl Shuffle:
BRETT FAVRE (Will Arnett)
Well they call me Brett and I like to dance
Then I text you a picture of what's in my pants
11 Pro Bowls cuz I love to win
Been with more pro teams than a Kardashian
If you hear me say, that I'm retired
that just means I'm currently for hire
I shop at sears and I'm on a roll
Shufflin' on down to another Pro Bowl
TOM BRADY (Jimmy)
I'm the funky QB they call Tom Brady
if you saw me from the back, you'd think I was a lady
cuz my hair's so long that it might deceive ya
Get it cut the same place as Justin Bieber
All-American with looks to boot
Every night I see Gisele in her birthday suit
Like Homer Simpson got a face full of stubble
So I look good doing the Pro Bowl shuffle
MICHAEL VICK (Bashir)
A-bow-wow-wow-yippee yo yippee yay
It's your boy Mike Vick here to save the day
Had to go to jail cuz my homeboy snitched
Then learned a new meaning for the word *WHISTLE*
I could run it or throw it, to score a goal
I just wish they'd let me play in the Puppy Bowl
Stop barking bad about me or you'll get the muzzle
Cuz I just wanna do the Pro Bowl shuffle
Uh huh…uh huh…uh huh, uh huh, uh huh.
TROY PALOMALU (Horatio)
(super high voice)
Well they call me Troy
and spelling my name is hard to do
If you really want, to be, just like me
Well use more shampoo than a sorority
I'll hit you so hard, I'll rock your world
My hair looks like a big-assed jerry curl
I do the Pro-Bowl shuffle with a flip
Then I whip my hair like Willow Smith
ELI MANNING (Miles)
Eli Manning in the house
the same place I'll be watching the Super Bowl this year
You know my brother Peyton, I'm sure you do
I've been livin' in his shadow since I was two
Playing for Giants is pretty neat
I love 'em even more than Rex Ryan loves feet
I won the Super Bowl a few years ago
Now the Pro Bowl shuffle is all I know

Principles of Inventory and Materials ManagementThis text/reference addresses the unprecedented changes occurring in manufacturing that are being brought about by quality management philosophy — lower inventory, reduced lead-time, preventive maintenance, and increased emphasis on customer satisfaction. Combining theory and practice, it presents alternative systems (models) for managing materials (inventory) — their use, transformation, distribution, and sale — and their flow to, within, and from the organization. Covers forecasting and marketing analysis; independent demand systems (deterministic models/probabilistic models); discrete demand systems (deterministic models/materials requirements planning - MRP); inventory system changes and limitations; single order quantities; in-process inventory, just-in-time, and theory of constraints; distribution inventory systems; inventory valuation and measurement; simulation; and aggregate inventory control. Content progresses from simple systems to more complex models; numerous examples of solved problems and short case studies explore a variety of situations and organizational settings; and appendices provide additional extensions and supporting logic on particular topics. For practitioners and advanced students involved in operations, inventory control, production control, and physical supply in manufacturing. |

In an age where even a temporary malfunction of a web site or a mail server means loss of business, productivity, or communication, it is important to make sure that your Internet services are running around the clock. The ability to be notified when such services fail is just as important to avoid bad surprises. Well, you don't need to stay glued to your monitor, or get a call from an angry boss or customer. You just need Netoscope. Netoscope is a simple and effective tool to monitor Internet services such as web, ftp, or mail servers. When a monitored service fails, Netoscope can notify you about it or even correct the problem if possible. This makes it a useful tool for both client and server machines. Netoscope provides several ways to respond to failed services. Audio and visual notifications can alert people near the machine. E-mail notifications can be used to inform a wider range of remote operators. This includes paging on-call staff if their cellular phone or pager can accept e-mail messages. Netoscope also provides a batch processing feature which can be set to run applications in response to failures. This gives you the opportunity to attempt an automatic restart or recovery of the service.

iOS 8 is coming for your house. One of the many new developer tools Apple unveiled Monday at the Worldwide Developer Conference is HomeKit, a new suite of tools that will let the makers of smart home products integrate their wares more deeply into Apple's mobile OS.
iOS 8 is coming for your house. One of the many new developer tools Apple unveiled Monday at the Worldwide Developer Conference is HomeKit, a new suite of tools that will let the makers of smart home products integrate their wares more deeply into Apple's mobile OS.
HomeKit is notable for what it isn't. Apple didn't pick one standard protocol for the industry to rally behind (at least not yet), like the way the company pushed adoption of USB by building it into the iMac. Apple didn't announce its own hub or gadget, like the Revolv, to bridge multiple device protocols. HomeKit isn't a single app on iOS, like Health or Passbook.
Hey, Siri, control my house
Right now, most connected-home products worth their salt can be controlled by an iOS app, but users have to navigate to that app and open it to do anything.
Instead, and as we predicted, HomeKit will allow users to control third-party smart-home gadgets from more places in iOS 8. HomeKit will let smart locks, lights, cameras, thermostats, plugs, and switches securely pair with your iPhone, so you can control individual devices, and even group devices together.
You could tell Siri you're going to bed, for example, and that could trigger a response from your entire home all at once, instead of you having to open the Nest app to turn down the heat, the Hue app to turn off your lights, and the August app to lock the front door.
The geofencing feature in iOS could be huge for connected home devices too. You can already use IFTTT to program iOS location-based triggers with compatible gadgets like the Philips Hue lights and the Belkin WeMo smart outlets and switches. HomeKit should make that process easier by eliminating the extra IFTTT step. Now when your smart home sees your iPhone approaching, it will be able to flip on your porch light to welcome you home.
Home safe
The company has its eye on security too. Federighi says it will use "a common network protocol that has secure pairing so only your iPhone can unlock your garage door." Look for Made for iPhone labels popping up on connected home appliances--Haier's Tianzun air conditioner was spotted with a MFi label back in January by the eagle eyes at MacRumors. Apple is working with "leaders in home automation" such as Haier, Honeywell, and Texas Instruments to identify a consistent network protocol.
We can't wait to learn more about HomeKit as we approach the launch of iOS 8 this fall.

DETROIT (AP) – The Detroit Tigers have acquired second baseman Omar Infante and right-hander Anibal Sanchez from Miami, sending 21-year-old righty Jacob Turner and two minor leaguers to the Marlins.
The deal gives the Tigers a likely solution to their season-long problems at second base and adds another experienced arm to their starting rotation. The trade underscores Detroit's desire to win now after signing slugger Prince Fielder in the offseason. Turner was considered the Tigers' top pitching prospect and earned his first major league win Sunday.
Miami also receives catcher Rob Brantley and left-hander Brian Flynn in the deal.
Detroit is coming off a three-game sweep of Chicago that propelled them into first place in the AL Central.

Hey everybody I'm 20 years old from Minnesota and I love anime and manga!!
I started watching anime about 3 years ago but haven't become really into it until latley. My favorite genres are romance, drama, and comedy. My least favorite genres are mecha, mystery, and horror. But there are some exceptions to the rule. I am also glad that I tried out manga they are just as good as anime.
9,749 total episodes
Hello! sothis is redesigning the anime-planet site, and plans to roll out an awesome new site design in July, we believe. The blog feature is not part of the new design, and it is going away. More information about this here: Announcement: the blog feature is being deprecated topic link. (Be sure to check out the new site design when it goes live!)
I am volunteering in a project to notify folks who have blogs posted here, like yourself, that the blog feature is going away. So if you want to save the information that you posted in your blog on the site, you'll need to move that information someplace else on the site that WON'T be going away. If you don't move the information to another part of the site, the information will be gone when the new site design goes live.
So, we are telling everyone that has posted a blog this. And then we are making suggestions where they can move their information, based on what information their blog contained. This comment has recommendations to you where to move your blog content.
You can keep track of your watched/in progress anime by updating your Anime List and keeping it up to date. You can post comments and opinions about what you've watched in the anime's official Discussion topic. There should be a link to the anime's Discussion topic on the anime's Main Details page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to get back to me, and I will try to assist.
