Minor International announces UAE début of Anantara brand with two hotel properties in Dubai
Minor International will make its debut as an exhibitor at Arabian Travel Market with the announcement of the opening of a luxurious resort and a stylish hotel, both located in Dubai. The management contracts are the first UAE ventures for the Thailand-based company, one of the leading hospitality and leisure organisations in the Asia-Pacific region.
The first project, scheduled to open in December 2007 will be Anantara Resort Palm Jumeirah, a five-star luxury resort located just 30 minutes from Dubai International Airport.
The resort is an integral part of the AED 2.1 billion Tiara Residence project launched by Zabeel Investments. Both Tiara Residence and Anantara Resort Palm Jumeirah will form a private, gated community located off the main trunk of the Palm Jumeirah.
Lush landscaped gardens and a tropical forest will surround both the Residence and the Resort with streams creating an authentic look of an Asian destination juxtaposed against and overlooking the Arabian Sea. The architecture of the buildings will represent a contemporary style inspired by its natural surroundings. This will be highlighted with the use of wood as a prominent feature on the exterior as well as forming part of the façade of the buildings.
Anantara Resort Palm Jumeirah will comprise 243 hotel rooms complemented by 132 fully furnished and serviced apartments, all within a single 15-storey building. The rooms and suites range between 35 sq metres and 90 sq metres in size whilst the one-bedroom serviced apartments offer living areas of between 50 sq metres and 90 sq metres including kitchen facilities.
World-class dining options will include "Spices", a contemporary Asian restaurant featuring classic South East Asian and Thai specialities, the "Market" featuring an open-plan kitchen offering international and Middle Eastern favourites and the High Tide offering al fresco dining by the ocean.
A focal point of the resort will be the highly acclaimed Anantara Spa, an inviting facility of approximately 800 sq metres providing a full range of eastern and western treatments and therapies.
Said William E. Heinecke, Chairman and Chief Executive of Anantara's parent company, Minor International: "We are delighted to be a part of the prestigious Tiara project. Anantara Palm Jumeirah Dubai will mark our hotel brand's debut in the UAE and I am particularly proud to be able to present Anantara's distinctive style of luxury within this magnificent architectural landscape."
The second property in Dubai will be the Anantara Jumeirah Lake Dubai. Due to open in the first quarter of 2008, this property will be located within the distinctive Jumeriah Lakes development project comprising of offices and residential facilities. The 45-storey hotel is situated behind Dubai Marina and just minutes away from the world-famous Emirates Golf Course.
Anantara Jumeirah Lake Dubai will feature 473 rooms, suites and service apartments ranging from 42 sq metres to 115 sq metres in size. Hotel facilities will include four restaurants, three refreshment lounges, extensive meeting facilities and the world-class Anantara Spa, in addition to other recreational facilities.
Both Anantara Resort Palm Jumeirah and Anantara Jumeirah Lake Dubai will feature interiors designed by Milan-based Studio Marco Piva.
Anantara is taken from a Sanskrit word that means 'borderless water', and was chosen for this element's association in many Asian cultures with wealth and good fortune.
"Anantara Resorts offer leisure experiences that invoke a tremendous feeling of tranquility and privacy and amidst luscious natural landscapes with finishings and offerings that reflect the traditions and lifestyle of the surrounding environment," said Heinecke.
"Our existing properties in Thailand, as well as a new resort opening in the Maldives in early July, operate along these very principles," he added. "With distinctive settings in Hua Hin, on Koh Samui and in the Golden Triangle, and with the dedication of highly motivated service teams, the Anantara experience offers guests luxury and tranquility in surroundings that are culturally and environmentally uplifting."

Holy Italian Hummer, Man of Bat. Fiat's new Oltre Fiat concept, unveiled today at the Bologna auto show, either foreshadows a new competitor for the largest luxury SUVs, or is the punchline of a complex joke involving a team of blind Italian futurists, several tons of sheetmetal, a goat, and a vat of grappa. As Eurocar Blog reports, the "beyond Fiat" concept is built on an Iveco military truck platform, sports a set of ginormous Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico 315/40R26 XL tires, but a relatively underwhelming 3.0-liter common-rail diesel four producing 185 hp and 336 lbs-ft of torque.

Company Sued, Loses For Not Using Patented Tech 631
bdcrazy writes "A man was recently awarded $1.5M in a jury trial after his hand was injured by a Ryobi table saw. The saw did not include the patented 'Saw Stop' technology that the plaintiff argued would have prevented all the problems." 60 similar cases have now been filed nationwide. TechDirt makes the argument that this jury decision is completely crazy: "If the government is going to require companies to use a patented technology, it seems that the only reasonable solution is to remove the patent on it and allow competition in the market place." If the decision stands, not only will the price of table saws go way up, but other hungry patent-holders will probably get a gleam in their eye.

In my brain I have worked out the plans for a coupler that would let the Flex Shaft's brass tube slip into, and would connect to the rear strut. This would keep the grease from spooging around the grommet at the back of the boat with out the need of using non-factory parts. It would also allow, the otherwise spent grease to be used in the strut, and would relocate any spent grease to the propeller end of the strut (where it would be easier to cleaned off).
When I make this, would you guyz like for me to post pictures of the construction steps needed, or should I just mind my own darn business, shut the heck up, and quit bugging you guyz about goofy mods? (lol)
The reason why I'm asking first is; it would be better (and easier) to take pictures as I'm putting things together, rather than taking (what I can) apart latter to take pictures. So, if you guyz are interested let me know, and my next Mod Post will be better illustrated.
I did this mod way back. It works well to retain more grease on the flex cable/wire drive, and has the added benefit of helping to keep the strut in alignment.
The way I did the mod, it is a bit more finicky trying to set the initial strut angle because the stuffing tube contacts the strut, so you also have to adjust the stuffing tube length so it holds the strut where you want it. IMO opinion, worth the effort for a solid strut that is difficult to knock out of alignment.
I certainly would be interested in seeing your approach to this mod.
I second on that HOG, do you have pictures of yours as well, Reglardude just post whenever it works or not, it's a kind of expirement, but one thing is your scandalous cap pack pics. were deleted, what happened?
Sharing is the best thing to do on EARTH legally.
I do have pictures, but I struggle with the editing, uploading, and posting of pics. I tried for a long time, but find it time consuming and frustrating, so don't bother trying anymore.
All I did was drill out the bushing on the back of the strut with a 1/4" drill to a depth of approx 4mm (1/8 - 5/32") to create a "seating" area for the stuffing tube.
Then I cut a a new stuffing tube to length from 1/4" K&S brass tube. Sorry I don't remember the length off hand, but just measure the gap between the end of the stock stuffing tube and the strut and add that length, PLUS the depth you drill out the strut bushing, and you will be pretty close.
You can adjust the length of the stuffing tube a few mm one way or the other by loosening the stuffing tube clamp at the motor end of the component tray.
I have to trim my stuffing tube length pretty close because I run the Aeromarine coupler and don't have a lot of room between the stuffing tube clamp and the end of the coupler, you can file the end a bit if necessary to get the fit right for your setup.
When you adjust the stuffing tube length to achieve the correct strut angle, you have to pull the tray, adjust the length forward or back a bit, then re-tighten the clamp before putting the tray back in place. You can't leave the clamp loose because fitting the stuffing tube through the grommet will move the stuffing tube out of place. This is the finicky part, but after you have done it a couple times, you can usually get things dialed in pretty quickly and only remove the tray 2-3 times to get the setting you want.
PS I Know pics would help, anyone interested can PM me an e-mail address and I will send what I have direct to you.
PM you already, thanks
Sharing is the best thing to do on EARTH legally.
Thanks for sharing,
I know what you did there, but I already upgraded to a .187 flex cable and upgraded the brass tube with teflon, so at the end of that tube is just the length of the rubber grommet, but I can do this set-up with my castle esc, cause everything there were stock. I will work on this after my new esc & motor set-up, for I am waiting on my soldering iron to arrive.

MLB: Pirates keep pace with 3-2 win over Cubs
PITTSBURGH — Tony Sanchez thought he was going to get the opportunity to catch a no-hitter in his rookie season with the Pittsburgh Pirates. That's how well Francisco Liriano was pitching Sunday.
"I thought there was a chance," Sanchez said. "His ball was really moving, particularly the slider, was moving all over the place."
Liriano took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning before faltering in his first no-decision this season, and pinch-hitter Justin Morneau singled in the go-ahead run in the eighth to lead the Pirates over the Chicago Cubs 3-2.
Pittsburgh remained tied with St. Louis for the NL Central lead, took three of four from the last-place Cubs and won for the sixth time in seven games. The Cardinals beat Seattle 12-2.
Morneau, acquired from Minnesota on Aug. 31, drove in his first run for the Pirates. The 2006 AL MVP is batting .279 (12-for-43) with Pittsburgh.
"It was perfect timing for the first RBI, that's for sure," Morneau said. "I wish it would have happened a week-and-a-half ago, but I'm glad it happened when it did. It's just nice to contribute."
With the score 2-2 in the eighth, Andrew McCutchen was hit by a pitch from Pedro Strop (2-2), took second on Marlon Byrd's bloop single to center and scored on Morneau's single.
"It's funny how things turn out in this game," Morneau said. "You hit some balls hard and have nothing to show for it then I get a broken-bat hit that ends being the game-winner."
Kyle Farnsworth (1-0) pitched a scoreless eighth for the win, and Mark Melancon completed a three-hitter with a perfect ninth for his 16th save in 18 chances.
Liriano didn't allow a hit until Junior Lake singled into the hole between third base and shortstop leading off the seventh. Shortstop Jordy Mercer made a diving effort and stopped the ball on the outfield grass, but Lake easily beat the throw.
Welington Castillo followed with a tying, two-run homer into the bleachers in left-center. Castillo's seventh homer of the season stopped Liriano's streak of 22 consecutive scoreless innings at PNC Park.
"You knew it was going to be tough and that's how you score against Liriano — you get somebody on and pop a home run," Chicago manager Dale Sveum said.
Liriano (16-7) allowed two runs, three hits and four walks in six-plus innings.
"He was on the edges of the plate and then he was just off of them," Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle said. "The pitch count got up higher than he wanted it to be but he got outs and he had a no-hitter through six innings. He battles and he competes."
Liriano, who was unavailable for comment after the game, threw 99 pitches through six innings, and Hurdle said it was doubtful he would have made it to the ninth.
"Francisco's a pro and he realizes it wouldn't benefit anyone for him to throw 130 pitches on Sept. 15," Hurdle said.
Cubs starter Travis Wood gave up two runs, five hits and two walks in six innings.
"Obviously, Liriano's very good so they matched each other evenly, pitch-for-pitch," Sveum said. "A couple bloopers there in the last inning cost us the win there."
Jose Tabata led off the first inning with a triple and scored on a wild pitch, and Sanchez doubled the lead when he homered in the fourth.
NOTES: Pittsburgh LF Starling Marte, who has not had a plate appearance since Aug. 18 because of a bruised right hand, is to take batting practice today and could be in the lineup Tuesday against San Diego. ... The Pirates open a four-game home series tonight against San Diego. A.J. Burnett will start for the Pirates against San Diego's Andrew Cashner (9-8, 3.40).

Thread: Is 1366x768 ok for a new TV?
Is 1366x768 ok for a new TV?
Quick question, because there is a 19 inch LCD tv on sale pretty cheap in a store near my office, but it's today only.
It's a 19 inch 1366x768 toshiba (19b5).
I know nothing about LCD tvs, as I'm still rocking an old style tube tv. I know 19 inches will sound tiny to lots of people, but money is an issue, and also my apartment is pretty tiny. I used to have a nice big 32 inch tv when I had a big house in the UK.
Due to not watching much local TV, and being overseas, and getting most of my entertainment from the internet these days, I never really got around to upgrading to an LCD / Digital Tv. I still use DVDs and never upgrade to Blueray either. (though I do love movies).
Anyway, I'm not up to date on HDTV resolutions, and I noticed that 1080p tvs are labeled "full HD", so that implies that 768p ones aren't? It may well not be an issue on a small screen, but I just don't want to end up with an obsolete resolution that won't work with newer tech in the future.
(I don't think I'll ever switch to blueray, more likely go with something fully digital, but I'm wondering if that is at a higher resolution than 768? And will it downscale? Will it look bad? etc...)
Yay or nay on a 1366x768 TV?

720p is HD - so anything which is somethingx720-or-better is HD
1080P is FullHD - so anything which is somethingx1080-or-better is FullHD
On screens smaller than 40", you DO NOT NEED FullHD IMO - you simply will not see any difference.
The only difference between TVs and Monitors these days is that TVs have some sort of tuner (Freeview or whatever) and they often have lower refresh rates (which makes them less-than-ideal for PC usage)
If you don't NEED the tuner, you may be able to find a monitor cheaper. Someone tried to sell me 2x19" monitors yesterday for £20 and I hesitated - that's how cheap monitors like that are these days...
For 19 inches, it's fine.
But... I live in a small apartment too, and my 26-inch TV still feels a bit on the small side.
this is not true.
it all depends on the distance you view the picture. so 4k resolution is not enough while sitting few cms away from screen and 480p can be good enough for 100inch tv when watching tv from other side of the soccer field.
don't really see a point of 19inch myself. way too small.
Also, the quality of the TV (usually meaning the price) makes the difference as in how good it upscales media. If you have a cheap large TV, you may experience artefacting, not unlike in JPGs or bad compressed videos. (or just tiny videos youre watching on a huge screen)
Since youre using a computer, might I suggest just getting an antenna for your PC? I assume it has a larger screen.- Tom De Roeck.

"Quantacat's name is still recognised even if he watches on with detached eyes like Peter Molyneux over a cube in 3D space, staring at it with tears in his eyes, softly whispering... Someday they'll get it." - The Conclave
Thanks for the quick answers. I'm still undecided so I'll have to flip a coin when I walk past the store.
PS/ I know TV sizes have increased dramatically over the last 10 years, but I still don't really consider 19 samll (though definitely not big). I think there has always been a massive size difference between US and UK tvs.
Back in 2005 when I last bought a TV I got a 32" widescreen one, and every single person who visited my house commented on how huge it was. I imagine even back then a 32" tv wouldn't have been considered big in the USA.
I've been on a 14" tv and a 17"laptop monitor since then, so the whole leap to HDTVs/LCDs/Big TVs has passed me by. I've found 14" ok for everything except movies, and I tend to watch those on my laptop.
Apparently in the UK, the average size of TV in 2002 was 21" and in 2012 it was 32", yet all the online forums I've visited (mainly filled with americans, i guess) seem to sniff at anything under 40" and don't even mention anything under 34".
Then again, I'd imagine even this 19" will cost more here than many 40" TVs in the states, so that's probably not surprising.
I did suggest a 22" tv to the other half, but she thought it was too big.
Well 19 inches is considered tiny in Denmark. Also when it comes to TVs. ;)
I got my 26-inch TV several years ago, and it was considered small-ish even then (as it is now, albeit more so).

I'd argue not - in dot-pitch terms - UNLESS you sit inches from the screen perhaps (and even then...)
A mate has a 50" TV which is 720p and you can tell it's 720p - we have a 32" which is 1080p and you cannot so the line is somewhere between those.
No-one is buying a 19" TV and sitting 3m away from it I guess, it would be like a postage stamp! We have a 32" TV in our front-room and it's OK when sitting 2m away - perhaps a BIT on the small side.
I managed 3+ years sitting 30cm from a 19" monitor tho - the 24 I have now is, arguably, a BIT too big really...

In the UK it would appear that TVs are something of a competition - it's impossible to walk down any street without seeing someone who's basically turned an ENTIRE WALL into a Coronation Street displayscreen...
They do say that you can tell a lot about a person by comparing the size of their TV and their bookcase tho :)

I find resolutions like 1366x768 for a TV really odd, and would be inclined to avoid buying one.
Surely you want a TV for which the native resolution will match at least some sources?
It won't match 720p (1280 x 720) or any of the old SD formats. As far as I can see, you get TVs at this res because it used to be a popular laptop res.
16:9 is standard for TVs nowadays. It's just that 19 inches is so small by current standards - it's small for a computer monitor, let alone for a TV.

Don't Think I posted the van
Ex-Arriva Minibus, 2L Diesel. (Peugeot Boxer)
It only just hits 60Mph. It's great. And Insulated.
Only thing bad about the picture is the Corona box.
Because it should be a Budweiser one.
That is a fucking sweet Jeep
I'll most likely post tons of pictures on Thursday :>
Here's a pic from the front:
Here's the driver side, sort of on an angle:
I love American cars/trucks/anything American...
Now all you need is a nice lift with some nice tires, but NOT a body lift. I hate seeing people driving around in Jeeps when the body is an inch or two higher than the tires. Oh well, nice Jeep :D
I hate bodylifts too. It's just so wrong.
But won't my tires cut it? :c
They're 30" (I think) mudding tires
They're perfectly fine, but bigger the better :)
The white one will become a spare parts car when I get the black one on the road so I'll take the wheels from the white onto the black and hopefully some time in the future when I have the money for it I'll buy a good lift kit
Ive been thinking of getting a suspension lift for my tacoma. I hate how it rides so low and I would like to be able to go over curbs if I have to.
Rated disagree because that's one of my favorite jeeps, love the look of it. The A/T tires really fit it, too.
Also how do you think it'd look if I put the chrome parts off the white one onto the black one?
double broken automerge lel
Well the white one is pretty much a mess of colors all around and the rear bumper is hanging on one side, the plastic on the left taillight is broken and repaired by the previous owner with fibreglass ect ect
It's got those many faults that makes it kinda less spectacular as I said
I mean, I absolutely love Cherokees but mine isn't exactly in good shape so that's why I'm gonna switch to the black one
Don't chrome out the black one, it's super sexy like it is.
I am joining the USAF soon and am going back to school in the fall of 12. But if I get pell grant and get my gpa back up to a 3.0 i wont need any money for it and ill have about 10-15,000 dollars to start paying off the interest on student loans and might throw some money at my truck. Depends on the length of my technical training.
Thats the actual color of my Jeep;) sorry i couldnt get the actual picture and did a link. Idk how to do the full picture
Why did you use a winky face. Do you want to have sex with his jeep?
Lookin hella sexy, Do Work Son.
If we were on the Tex I'd have to say, "Moar Low". lol
Thanks man! Just bought BF3.
The CVV is 623
I heard that in some states the door-less variation is illegal (Automotive safety laws etc). Is it true?
But it's not doorless...The doors are removable yeah, but it doesn't just come off the platform or whatever without any doors
Mannn that would look better with out that empty licence plate holder.
I know but Its riveted on...
;_; That did not stop me from taking off my front licence plate holder. But mine was bolted on.
I disagreed because i thought you were saying it would look better with a front plate. Then i understood what you were saying, but it was too late.
I live in Michigan and it's not illegal as far as I know. Haven't gotten pulled over yet. But it is illegal to drive with less than two rearview mirrors. You need one on the windshield and driver side door.
old gold?
i'll bite
that door still doesn't close correctly
what have you done
I'd show a picture of the damage that guy's truck did to my Honda
If there was any :v
Well, it did crack the bondo on my passenger fender that I didn't know I had, and then I chipped some of it off, but that was post-wreck.
Otherwise I have a scuffed bumper.
Having a friend shoot some nice nice pictures this weekend hopefully. That, and we are supposed to have nice weather this saturday, and my dad gave me the GO on using the GoPro for a day... Going cruising c:
my 1997 3500 dodge cummins turbo diesel 5.9L automatic transmission all stock except for the exhaust system, hoping to put stacks on soon.
My Mini, no idea if I've posted it before:
I remember it being posted but didn't remember that it's yours
It is awesome
Love it when it lifts a rear wheel in corners
It is really a beautiful car, I have a soft spot for old small cars.
Reenact a scene from The Italian Job and film it for our enjoyment :D
Cleaned my car today, shiny as hell. started to snow right after.
apart from the ugly rusty winter rims
oh well, sideways action coming up

- - I love her but not what she does...
I love her but not what she does... First off I'd like to say hi to everyone as this is my first thread. Now, onto my problem. I have an elderly (23) mare that I've had for about two years now and love to death, she's my best friend and has helped me overcome so much, but she is very limited in what she can do. No jumping (my original goal), and no trail riding (at least enjoyable rides, she's very barn sour and when I just want to hack out fighting her all the way back to the barn is not fun). What I really want to do is competitive trail riding, and I don't feel safe/comfortable doing that one her. In the arena she's a dream, super comfortable and quiet, turns on a dime, and she is a total lovebug. However, there are tons of inexpensive horses in my area who are all that and can do what I want to do, and then some. So, my dilemma is, what should I do? Should I keep my mare and love her for who she is, or find her a great home and move on to something else? I've been so confused and torn up over thinking about this. |
Being barn sour is, IMO, a fixable problem. And keep in mind that I don't know your situation 100%, but something in your post tipped me off. You consider her your best friend, your 'lovebug'. Don't. Make sure you're disciplining her at all times when she does something naughty. Even getting a bit too pushy, do some ground work and make sure you have her respect completely before you try taking her away from her barn / buddies and when you do make sure you're not giving in to her tantrums / her fights. Eventually, with enough consistent work, she should be able to walk out on her own. Yes there are some horses who just CAN'T, but it sounds like she isn't one of those, if she is an angel in the ring. If you aren't comfortable with that, find a trainer or someone who is a more confident rider! That said, if you want to go far in competitive riding, you might want to consider something younger to bring along and be really competitive. It all depends on her age and condition at her age. |
It's a very difficult situation for sure. Is there anyway of possibly keeping two horses at once? I know it can be expensive. Or, maybe a half or full lease for your mare to offset some of her board then you can still have her with you. I know how hard it can be to sell a horse and live with yourself afterwards. If this isn't an option then you may have to sell her or rehome her and hope for the best home possible and move on. |
At 23, she's a little old to be STARTING a new career, especially if she's barn sour. Her age now is not your biggest obstacle, there are many 23 YO endurance horses still healthy and happy. The fact that she is not happy leaving the barn is likely to a bigger factor. Are you willing to put up with the "attitude" as you condition her? You've suggested that it's not fun fighting with her. IF you can afford to keep her and give her the attention she deserves, AND find one of those inexpensive horses that are sound, and would enjoy an endurance career---GO FOR IT! |
1 Attachment(s) It's a training issue, something that MANY horses experience to some degree. There's nothing guaranteeing you that a new horse won't have or develop the same. Posted via Mobile Device |
Thanks for quick and sound replies everyone! As for the barn sourness, I understand it is a training problem, and during the summer when the weather is nice enough to trail ride every day, she does show improvement but is never 100%. I appreciate your concern on the discipline, and I assure you she is not allowed to get away with ANYTHING in the ring, and I guess this is what she needs on the trail as well? How would you go about helping the barn sourness and helping her to become safer on the trail? |

My horse used to be a trail horse and he was horribly Barn sour as well. We just worked a lot on going out calming with other horses to start and to just have fun instead of always working. Eventually we progressed to going out alone and he's gotten better and better. He's still quick to walk back to the barn when he's alone but he's 20 and he was able to improve so hopefully you can help your mare too :) Posted via Mobile Device |
Anyone else have any thoughts? |
There was a post on training barn sour horses last week I think. May want to search it. There was great info on ground work and things to do to get your horse to get better. It may have been in natural horsemanship... not sure though. Posted via Mobile Device |

The Libraries seeks to provide a safe and secure learning environment where diverse experiences and perspectives are honored. Library users are expected to respect the rights of others, the integrity of Libraries resources and the scholarly mission of the Libraries.
Behaviors that infringe upon the rights of library users or staff are prohibited. Prohibited activities and behaviors include, but are not limited to, the following.
Library users found in violation of this code of conduct may be asked to present identifi cation to library staff; may be subject to a search of backpacks or bags; may be directed to leave the premises and not return to any library facilities for the day; and may be reported to University of Washington police. Disciplinary or legal action may also be taken in accordance with applicable laws and policies.
Federal and Washington State laws, local regulations and UW policies, including the Student Conduct Code, Workplace Violence and Sexual Harassment policies and other policies in the UW Policy Directory also apply within the University Libraries. In addition, the Libraries has written policies on food and drink, use of computers and borrowing library materials. All referenced library policies can be found at http://www.lib.washington.edu/about/policy.
revised January 2017
]]>If you fail to comply with the conditions of this policy, you may be subject to actions outlined in the Libraries Code of Conduct, University Libraries Operations Manual, Policy on Library Disruptions, Vol. 1, Section B, No. 4, Appendix A. (Lib. 76), http://www.lib.washington.edu/about/codeofconduct.html
Last reviewed and updated: March 2015
]]>The University of Washington defines diversity broadly to include "race, sex, gender identity, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, disability, nationality, religion, and military status."
Diversity is a fundamental value of the Libraries and is identified among the core values of our strategic plan. Our staff create an environment that appreciates, acknowledges, encourages and celebrates differences by functioning and communicating effectively and respectfully within the context of varying beliefs, behaviors, orientations, identities and cultural backgrounds. We seek and provide opportunities to gain experience working and collaborating in diverse, multicultural, and inclusive settings with a willingness to change for continual improvement. Our appreciation for diversity allows us to serve our increasingly diverse communities more effectively and with more sensitivity.
Beyond respect for diversity, it is important to recognize that inequity can often accompany diversity. This statement and its resulting plans are meant to foster and support an organizational culture where those inequities do not occur or are remedied when identified.
Libraries personnel at all levels of the organization are responsible for developing and maintaining a culture supportive of and committed to diversity and inclusion. A Diversity Committee and Diversity Officer implement and maintain the Libraries' Diversity plan and provide support and guidance. Both the Committee and Diversity Officer report directly to the Dean of University Libraries.
Exhibits are a valuable part of the University Libraries' public services outreach and user education program. Exhibits inform, educate, and promote the Libraries' information resources and services, and, at times, entertain. Exhibits provide an excellent opportunity for the Libraries to engage in collaborative projects, especially with faculty members and others in the university community.
The Libraries hosts a variety of exhibits including, for example, displays of current imprint book jackets, selected examples from the collections, and traveling exhibits of artifacts, documents, and books. Individual units use a variety of exhibit "equipment" ranging from bulletin boards to glazed, lighted cabinets, both free standing and built-in.
This policy defines the philosophy and goals for exhibits and public art displays throughout the Libraries, identifies responsibility for these programs, and defines acceptance guidelines and general policies. Smaller exhibits which are regarded by Libraries staff as "displays" are covered by this policy with the exception of extent of publicity. Libraries staff involved in organizing, curating, and/or mounting exhibits or displays are deemed to be acting within the course of official duties and under the authority of the University of Washington Libraries.
The display of public art is an important part of providing welcoming and pleasant facilities and also enriches the Libraries' service and outreach programs. The Libraries' permanent art collection and Art on Loan exhibits are not covered by this policy, but rather, by the Libraries' Public Art Policy.
The Senior Associate Dean of University Libraries, in consultation with others, will be responsible for updating and revising this policy.
Exhibits in the Libraries will be selected with reference to the Exhibits Policy and Goals Statements. Exhibit spaces are made available, in accordance with these Guidelines, to University and University-related departments, groups, and organizations, to student organizations registered with the UW Student Activities Office, and to exhibitors sponsored by the Libraries.
The following criteria apply as exhibit proposals are considered, although not all exhibits will meet all criteria. The Libraries reserves the right to approve or disapprove all exhibit requests, to have final approval for the layout of the exhibit, and to make all decisions regarding length of exhibit duration, placement of the exhibit within a library, and content of publicity.
Process for proposing an exhibit in the University of Washington Libraries
University of Washington Libraries Exhibit Proposal Form
The Libraries has a number of exhibit locations in the Suzzallo and Allen Libraries, the Odegaard Undergraduate Library, and the other campus and branch libraries. Exhibit space is also available at the University of Washington Tacoma Library and the University of Washington Bothell/Cascadia College Library. Some exhibit spaces are managed by a unit for the designated use of that unit.
Listed below are exhibit spaces that may be scheduled according to the use policy for each facility. The Dean of University Libraries has delegated to staff members listed as "Libraries Representative" in the "Room Use Policies" the authority to approve exhibits on behalf of the Dean of University Libraries.
Libraries events and exhibits information is located on the Libraries Web site's Events and Exhibits page. See the publicity section of this document for information about this and other ways to promote your exhibit.
To view the Use Policy/Description of Facility and the schedule for a particular exhibit location please select from the following list. Completed Exhibit Proposal Forms [pdf] are to be submitted to the Contact listed for the appropriate space.
In each designated exhibit location, a sign will be posted informing viewers of the Libraries' exhibit policy. Sign will read:
"For information about this exhibit location, please consult the Libraries Exhibits Guidelines at http://www.lib.washington.edu/about/news/exhibits/guidelines/"
Space not specifically designated for exhibits, such as corridors or study areas, may be considered for a temporary, special exhibit. To inquire about this type of space, contact the Senior Associate Dean of University Libraries in the Suzzallo and Allen Libraries, the Director of the Odegaard Undergraduate Library for space in that library, and the library director or head in other libraries. The Dean of University Libraries has delegated to these staff members the authority to approve exhibits in these locations on behalf of the Dean of University Libraries.
Exhibitors are solely responsible for funding all costs associated with the exhibit, including but not limited to shipping, installation, dismantling, and insurance. Exhibitors are responsible for publicity beyond that provided by the Libraries. See the publicity section of this document for more information.
Exhibits are often located in high traffic areas whose visibility reduces the likelihood of damage or theft of materials; however, the Libraries takes no responsibility for the security or welfare of exhibits at any time, including during transport, installation, or dismantling. Before an exhibit is installed, exhibitors and the Libraries representative must sign a release, indemnifying the UW from any responsibility for loss or damage. The original signed Exhibit Release Form [pdf] will be retained in the unit. A copy of the Form will be sent to the Office of the Dean of University Libraries.
Insurance coverage, if needed, is the responsibility of the Exhibitor. Insurance to cover the value of the exhibit is available for on-campus exhibitors from UW's Office of Risk Management. Exhibitors from off-campus are encouraged to insure their exhibit through their own agent.
Exhibits and displays must be placed so as to accommodate physical safety considerations. There cannot be loose cords or cabling; free-standing units must be secure; and ease of egress from the exhibit for emergency purposes must be assured. The exhibits must be set up so as to accommodate disability access.
Exhibits must be well prepared, organized, and aesthetically pleasing. In order to most effectively promote a Libraries exhibits program, units are encouraged to have a schedule of exhibitions planned for six to twelve months in the future.
Exhibit Duration: Exhibits should have specific start and end dates, although the end date may be extended if the schedule allows. As a general rule, exhibits should be on display for two to three months, but shorter exhibit times are permissible. Since exhibit conditions place a strain on library materials being displayed, exhibits running longer than three months are not encouraged, and should be undertaken only under exceptional circumstances.
NOTE: Duration for exhibits in the Allen Library North Lobby is limited to 6 weeks.
Exhibit Materials Handling: Exhibitors must handle books and artifacts gently and with conservation concerns in mind. In general, books should be displayed on bookstands, cradles or supports. Exposure to direct sunlight should be avoided. Panels with halogen light and cases with interior lighting can also be damaging to exhibited materials. Exhibitors should consider using facsimiles for fragile materials such as newspapers and photographs.
Special Collections and Preservation staff are experienced in the proper handling and display of unique and fragile materials, and can provide guidance to library exhibitors. Special arrangements should be made in advance for consultation and questions by contacting the Manager of Special Collections Operations or the Preservation Administrator.
See these sources for more information:
Generally, when circulating Libraries materials are used in a display, the materials must be checked out using an exhibition check-out card available from Circulation. This will cause a special message to appear in the UW Libraries Catalog that the item in "Unavailable" for the duration of the exhibit. Exhibitors may place a card in the display noting that the materials will be available for check-out after the exhibit ends.
Exhibit Text/Labels: Text should be word processed and printed on a high quality printer if not professionally designed and/or typeset.
Exhibit Support Materials:
Traveling Exhibits will be complemented, if possible, by exhibits of materials from the Libraries collections.
Sound, video, or computer displays accompanying exhibits will be installed and removed by the exhibitor in consultation with library staff.
Rooms in the Libraries may be, on occasion, available for receptions and other activities (workshops, talks, demonstrations) linked to exhibits. These should be discussed with the specific Libraries exhibit contact who will consult the room use policy and check the schedule to see whether a reception or other activity can be held.
Some rooms carry a room-use charge and the exhibitor will be responsible for meeting these costs unless other arrangements have been made prior to the reception or event. If alcohol will be served, consult the Serving and Sale of Alcoholic Beverages at University Facilities website.
The University Libraries supports academic freedom and the free expression of opinion. The Libraries will not exercise any censorship of materials such as books, images, labels, catalogs, or promotional literature that do not violate the guidelines as expressed in the University Libraries Exhibits Guidelines or local, state, or federal laws.
The University Libraries subscribes to the American Library Association's Library Bill of Rights as it applies to exhibit spaces and bulletin boards, specifically:
The library should not censor or remove an exhibit because some members of the community may disagree with its content. Those who object to the content of any exhibit held at the library should be able to submit their complaint and/or their own exhibit proposal to be judged according to the policies established by the library.
Challenges of a display, exhibit, or printed materials posted or displayed in a UW library may be sent in writing to the Associate Dean of University Libraries for Research and Instructional Services for areas in the Suzzallo and Allen Libraries, the Director of the Odegaard Undergraduate Library for space in that library, and the library director or head in other libraries. The Libraries will respond to written statements as follows:
Last reviewed and updated: April 2014
It is the policy of the University Libraries to maintain an environment appropriate for the protection of library materials and conducive to study in all units of the Libraries system.
Snack foods and covered beverages are allowed in many, but not all, university libraries. All libraries prohibit the consumption of food while using university computers or other technology (such as scanners, plotters, plasma screens, etc.) and in the book stacks. Libraries that do not allow the consumption of food and/or beverages post that information at library entrances and on library websites. The Libraries reserves the right to ask any user to remove his/her food and/or beverage from the library if in the judgment of the staff it constitutes a violation of this policy. In addition, failure to comply with posted restrictions or staff instructions regarding the consumption of food and beverages constitutes a violation of the Libraries Code of Conduct.
In order to conserve library resources and provide a comfortable environment for all, we ask that you adhere to the following guidelines:
The consumption of any food or beverage is specifically prohibited in units whose materials are difficult to replace and are especially susceptible to damage from spills. This designation is made at the sole discretion of the Libraries.
The use of tobacco products and e-cigarettes is prohibited in all areas of the University Libraries.

]]>It is the intent of the University Libraries to provide an aesthetically pleasing environment for students, faculty, staff, and visitors that is conducive to the pursuit of intellectual study and cultural enrichment. To that end the University Libraries welcomes opportunities to display art within the public areas in its facilities.
This public art policy covers gifts of art to the Libraries or art purchased for the Libraries by donors as well as art currently on display in the Libraries. The policy also covers the temporary, long term loan to the Libraries of art pieces for display from the Campus Art Collection, art owned by a University of Washington department or unit, or an individual. Art accessioned as part of the Libraries' collections and not intended for public display is not covered by this policy. The short term display of artwork, including UW student artwork, is covered in the UW Libraries Exhibits Guidelines.
This policy covers all of the Libraries administered by the Dean of University Libraries.
The Libraries Art Advisory Committee is composed of seven members of Libraries staff, including the Committee Chair. The Dean of University Libraries appoints one staff member each from Libraries Advancement, Special Collections, Libraries Facilities, the Odegaard Undergraduate Library, plus two members-at-large to the Committee. Volunteers to serve as members-at-large will be solicited from the Libraries staff. The Committee members are appointed for 2 year terms, with the terms being staggered so that there are new members and members in their second year of service during any one year. The Dean of University Libraries will appoint the Chair of the Libraries Art Advisory Committee.
The UW Bothell Library and the UW Tacoma Library will both be guided by this policy, but each library will establish its own Library Art Advisory Committee, and this committee will work directly with its respective Director and with the Dean of University Libraries.
When a library or library unit is offered a piece of fine art for display in a public area, the librarian in charge will contact the Chair, Libraries Art Advisory Committee with a brief description of the art and any special needs or special circumstances related to the gift or long-term loan. The Committee Chair will alert the Dean of University Libraries and together they will determine how best to involve the Libraries Art Advisory Committee.
The Libraries Art Advisory Committee shall advise the Dean of University Libraries on works of art to be accepted for display in public areas. During its discussion and information-gathering process, the LAAC will consult with the unit head and other appropriate parties. The LAAC will summarize the recommendations and forward them to the Dean of University Libraries. In addition to making a recommendation on acceptance, the Committee will recommend the most appropriate location for the art piece in question. The Committee also may advise on the style of framing (in the case of a painting or photograph, etc.) or the style of a pedestal base that might be required for a piece of sculpture. The Committee will work with Libraries Facilities staff on security and/or display issues.
Requests from the Campus Art Administrator to display works of fine art in the Libraries will go directly to the Chair, Libraries Art Advisory Committee who will then follow the procedure above.
The Libraries Art Advisory Committee and the Committee Chair will be advised by the office of the Director for Libraries Advancement on selections of artwork which are part of the ongoing Artist Images Gallery Series as well as for other art donations which are related to the Advancement Program.
Queries about possible donations or the Libraries Public Art Policy should be directed to the Chair, Libraries Art Advisory Committee.
Display of public art is an important part of providing welcoming and amenable facilities and is an enriching aspect of the Libraries' service, educational, and outreach programs.
The decision to accept artwork for display in the Libraries rests entirely with the Libraries. Upon acceptance, the Libraries will make all decisions regarding placement, length of time for the display, publicity, and display removal.
When accepting a work of art, the University Libraries reserves the right to:
The University Libraries will consider for acceptance as gifts such pieces of fine art as paintings, sculpture, wall hangings, photographs, and other original works in various media. Gifts of works of art will be accepted without limitations or conditions placed on the Libraries by the donor or artist unless those limitations or conditions are approved by the Libraries Art Advisory Committee or the Dean of University Libraries.
Title to all gifts of art will pass to the University of Washington Libraries. Gifts to the Libraries remain outright and unrestricted donations to be used according to the sole discretion of the Libraries. Such art works will be used to the best interest of the Libraries.
Donors who wish to receive a tax credit are responsible for getting an appraisal. By law, the University Libraries cannot provide value estimates on gift material. The office of the Director for Libraries Advancement and the Chair, Libraries Art Advisory Committee will work together to determine the appropriate process of receipt and acknowledgment for gifts of art. The documentation will identify and acknowledge the gift without appraising the work of art.
In addition to gifts of art or art purchased for the Libraries by donors, the Libraries also will evaluate the long-term temporary loan of art pieces for display from the Campus Art Collection (as negotiated with the Campus Art Administrator), art owned by a University department or unit, or art owned by an individual.
Long-term loans of art pieces for display will be covered by a written agreement (Agreement of Acceptance) that includes the details for duration, placement, security, and return of the item when the loan is over. Title of loaned materials will remain with the lending department or person. The care, security, and preservation of artwork that is loaned for display in the Libraries will be the responsibility of the owner, whether that entity is the Campus Art Collection, a department such as the School of Music, or an individual.
Overall, the University Libraries has limited space for the display of art, and therefore it is important to consider very carefully the acceptance of a piece of art for long-term loan or as a gift. Some Libraries units are in a position to house more works of art, and in these cases, they should make their situation known to the LAAC. Also, there may be some pieces or collections of art that are suitable for rotating among the different Libraries.
Style and nature The art should be appropriate in scale, material, form and content for the library environment.
Quality and Elements of design: Public art may have other functions in addition to aesthetic enjoyment. For example, a work of art may establish a focal point, modify, or enhance a space or identify a building function. As far as possible, the work of art should complement and enhance the building and its purpose. The reputation of the artist may be a factor in the decision.
Durability: Works of art will be examined for durability, taking the library environment and the condition of the piece into consideration. Extremely fragile items or those that are potential targets for vandalism are not appropriate for the library setting.
Installation/Maintenance costs: When selecting a work of art to purchase or determining if a gift may be accepted, the Libraries will take into consideration any security issues, the cost of installation, and the cost of maintaining the work over its lifetime. Start-up and ongoing costs for cleaning and mounting will also be considered.
Public liability: Works will not be selected or accepted that create unsafe conditions or contain other factors that may bear on public liability.
Conditions of acceptance: In the case of gifts or donations, the donor's conditions may affect whether or not the gift will be accepted.
Libraries Discretion: The Libraries, in its sole discretion, will determine whether to review and accept or reject any gift or proposed artwork.
Questions about this policy should be referred to the Chair, Libraries Art Advisory Committee.
Responsibility for revising this policy rests with the Chair, Libraries Art Advisory Committee and the Libraries Art Advisory Committee.

Sharing with non-UW users: This means peer-to-peer informal sharing for research, teaching and educational purposes. For example, if you are working with a colleague at another institution, and wish to make him/her aware of an article of mutual interest, you may send that article in print or electronically if this use is "allowed". Some publishers do not allow sharing with non-UW users, and only allow this activity with other authorized users within the University of Washington community.
Course Reserves: Most electronic resources may be used for print or electronic reserves. If "Course Reserves Allowed" is indicated, then copyright clearance has already been granted. Reserves, both print and electronic need to be secured, and not made available on the open web.
Course Packs: Some electronic resources allow for limited portions, such as a single articles from a journal, to be reproduced and provided to students in a course pack. If "Course packs allowed" is indicated, then copyright clearance has already been granted for this use. In nearly all cases, course packs must be provided on a cost recovery basis only, and not sold for profit. If "Course packs not allowed" is indicated, then the material needs to have copyright cleared with the publisher before proceeding with inclusion in a course pack.

Join Beckett Baseball's Chris Olds as he rips into four jumbo packs of 2012 Topps Series 2 cards in this latest edition of Ripping Retail.
What will he find inside? Watch and find out …
I really like Topps for baseball, but i find it pretty offensive that so far Bryce Harper has two rookies and they are both short printed. Thats nice, so when my kid says to me, Dad my favorite player is Bryce Harper i want to start collecting him, and i have to tell him "well son, you need 500 dollars to get a rookie" and just absolutely crush his dreams. This is the one of the reasons that kids are not getting into the hobby anymore. I am not into inserts at all, dont really buy boxes for auto's or patches but Rookies are a must for me. This is severely disapointing to me.
"Dont worry son we might not be able to afford Bryce Harper's rookies but there is always Drew Pomeranz!"
what is absolutely amazing is this product is NOT supposed to hit the market until 6/6/12 and here it is 6/5/12.
i bought one of those $9.98 boxes with like 72 cards and i got a Brett Lawrie Pie Face variation card along with a few rookies and inserts,
My 5 year old son is dieing for that Peavy jersey card.How much would you offer for it?It would be awesome for me an my son since we are huge fans of the Sox!Get back to me as soon as possible.Thanks!
I have to assume that there will be a Harper rookie card (hopefully still numbered 661, but with different photography) inserted into Topps Update when that comes out. That was what they did for Strasburg, and it makes just as much sense that it would be a similar situation for Harper. Now, if this isn't what happens, I could see reason to be upset.
Harper cards inserted into other series will be other cards or have different photos if they are the same number. The factory set version will be different than the in-pack SP version.
Hey buddy, what do you do with these cards? I'm a diehard White Sox fan and that Peavy card would be a great addition to my collection. Especially since i know what jersey is in the card, its the half way to St. Patricks day jersey lol.
Ripping Retail cards are mine.They pretty much just sit in my collection. Peavy shouldn't be tough to track down on ebay.
My dad just pulled a harper auto from from a jumbo pack at MVP sportscards in Pleasant Hill, CA. Is it worth grading these new cards?

The entrances have become known to the fight world as the "walkout" and the appeal of this mini-spectacle has grown considerably through the years.
Today, there are three types of fighter entrances, all with distinctive means of giving a fighter that all-important adrenaline rush just prior a bout.
1) Inspiration/Self-Motivation
2) Intimidation and
3) Entertainment
Typically, most fighters use the walkout to music that helps inspire or self-motivate. They select music that uplifts them because that song has a special or sentimental meaning. For example, Evander Holyfield, who is very religious, would walkout to gospel music.
Conversely, some fighters - most notably Prince Naseem Hamed in the past - walkout (or "dance out") to popular, mainstream music in an attempt to electrify the crowd and draw energy from those in attendance. These fighters have no special attachment to the music nor is it meant to intimidate. They are simply crowd-pleasers; rock stars looking to 'get their groove on' outside the ring before they do so inside it.
But others, like Mike Tyson in the past, use their entrances in an attempt to intimidate their opponents. The music, sometimes offensive to some, can be violent in nature and sometimes graphic and vulgar - But boxing is a violent sport so, for some fighters, this type of music only feeds a fighter's killer instinct and pre-existing passion to destroy.
Throughout combat sports history, there have been many memorable entrances, including some very bizarre ones.
And while some find walkouts annoying and would prefer the participant to get straight to the fight, many find them intriguing as they have become an attractive part of the combat sports culture.
During the 1990's, there was arguably nothing scarier then a combination of "Iron" Mike Tyson and DMX's music, as the former entered the ring. Always sporting his menacing stare, Tyson would electrify crowds with his intimidating entrances.
"Iron Mike's" walkouts were also unique because he didnt dawn the traditional robe. Instead, he often wore a towel with a hole cut in it over his head.
One of Mike Tyson's most memorable and interesting walkouts occurred in his 1988 bout with Michael Spinks. It is memorable due to Tyson's request to have no music, just sounds. Many believed this to be a motivational and imposing tactic to get inside Michael's head.
Who knows if the ploy worked but 91 seconds later, Spinks was out cold.

Cupcakes and kittens, oh my!
Cupcakes and kittens. Put these sweet things together and you have Langley Animal Protection Society's latest fundraiser.
The Langley animal shelter is asking people who love animals to host a cupcake day on Feb. 24 with proceeds going to help the local animals in need.
The idea has already taken off with more than 15 groups pledging to bake the yummy icing topped goodies and raise $7,000.
Shelter manager Sean Baker is hoping this new initiative will help raise around $12,000 for the shelter.
He is hoping for 30 people to register. Already, LAPS was selling cupcakes at their weekend adoption event at the Abbotsford PetSmart and will be selling cupcakes at the shelter on Feb. 24.
The municipally-run shelter has been on the forefront of unique fundraising initiatives to help pay for the costs of taking in abandoned and injured cats and dogs. It is costly for vet bills, daily care, training, food and medications.
In 2013, the shelter helped 814 dogs, 345 cats and 70 livestock animals. They also provided 200 free spay and neuter vouchers to low income cat owners.
Just recently, with help from web tech savvy shelter volunteer and kitten foster mom Shelly Roche, LAPS won $5,000 in the "Shelter Challenge." That money saved 10 kittens, and now they have a chance to win $10,000 in the new round of the Challenge, which began last month. The money was the first time a Canadian shelter has won since the contest began in 2008.
So many voted for Langley that it got the local shelter an additional $1,000 last week in the Greatergood.org animal rescue challenge.
The world has tuned in by the millions to watch Roche's foster kittens romp around her house having their adorable furry fun. A puppy cam was also set up when a pregnant dog gave birth to two of her own but took in and nursed four abandoned pups as well. All the pups and all the litters of kittens featured on the web cams have found their forever homes.
If you would like to participate in Cupcake Day at your school, work, home, field or wherever, go to lapsbc.ca or look on LAPSlangley Facebook page.

A major kitchen remodel... it can be every cook's dream—or nightmare. Follow along as Executive Editor Kate Heyhoe turns a cramped, dingy, 36-year old country kitchen into the ultimate expansive, efficient and drop-dead gorgeous center for cooking, dining and entertaining. Kate's tips and research can help turn your own kitchen remodel, whether it's a large or small job, into your true dream kitchen, without being an exercise in frustration.
Half of the 1964 galley-style kitchen, prior to remodeling. |
Along with before-and-after photos, you'll see detailed shots of each step along the way, to prepare you for your own remodeling adventure. Starting with the ups and downs of hiring a contractor, the series continues with Kate's selection of cabinets, countertops, appliances, flooring materials, lighting fixtures, and the installation process for each. You'll discover why Kate selects certain products over others, and you'll get a real feel for what to do—and not do when remodeling your own kitchen.
"Mine is intentionally not going to be a restaurant-style kitchen," explains Kate as the series begins. "I need to cook in the same way my readers do, and with the same type of equipment, so my recipes can be replicated by anyone. But that's not to say consumers can't outfit their kitchens with state-of-the-art products. I've discovered an incredibly exciting assortment of cabinets, countertops, appliances, flooring and other materials that are affordable yet attractive. Better yet is the way they perform—most have built-in durability and new time-saving and technology features that are designed with today's busy cook in mind."
The road to remodel also means that at some point, you'll be entirely without a kitchen. Kate's tips for eating well without a kitchen sink, range or refrigerator will pull you through these tough times. Even if you're not undergoing kitchen demolition, these stress-free, mess-free recipes are ones to serve and enjoy at any time.
The Phase 1 recipes don't require a lot of ingredients, preparation time or equipment—yet they're far from boring. As your old kitchen is gradually put out of commission , you'll need to break out the grill or get sandwich-creative—or try the Phase 2 and Phase 3 Survival Recipes coming up in the series.
The Global Gourmet's Kitchen Remodel series runs through March, 2001. Come back next week for Part 1: Recipe for a Remodel, in which Kate outlines all the ingredients you'll need to cook up your dream kitchen.
You still have your kitchen, but what you don't have is time or energy (so many decisions to make, so much research and shopping to do!). Some of these recipes make enough for more than one meal, to enjoy again without any effort.

Winston denies paying Hone's fine
The Herald reports:
Current and former MPs and "ordinary people" banded together to pay the $632 fine Hone Harawira received last year for defying police at a 2012 Auckland housing protest.
But while one of his Mana Party contenders claims Winston Peters was among the donors, Mr Harawira will not name them, even though it appears he is required to do so under parliamentary rules. …
But last week at a public meeting of Housing NZ tenants in Grey Lynn, the sole nominee for Mana Party candidate for Tamaki Makaurau, Kereama Pene, said: "Our Mana leader was dragged out of his car in GI.
He got done for it. Do you know who paid his $500 fine?"
Someone called out "Kim Dotcom!".
But Mr Pene said: "No, it was worse than that, much worse than that, it was Winston Peters."
I have to say that it seems unlikely.
However, the fine, including costs, is large enough to require disclosure under the rules for Parliament's Register of Pecuniary Interests because it was paid by someone other than Mr Harawira.
The rules also require the identity of those paying off MPs' debts to be declared.
Mr Harawira last night refused to comment on what he said was a "petty" matter.
Following the petty rules is only for white MOFOs!

On May 30, 1861, Secretary of War Simon Cameron wrote General Benjamin Butler at Fortress Monroe to inform him officially of the cabinet's approval of his decision not to return the slaves of disloyal Virginia slaveholders and declare them contraband of war. Cameron's letter read:
In short, Lincoln's cabinet essentially approved everything Butler had done in regard to fugitive slaves in Virginia making "contraband of war" an official policy. From the perspective of the Lincoln administration, Benjamin Butler's extemporaneous decision well served its needs as they existed in late Spring 1861. It encouraged the loss a valuable military asset–slave labor–to the Confederacy, while not challenging slavery's legality itself. The latter point was critical because at that moment Lincoln did not to do anything that would alienate slaveholders in the remaining loyal slave states. (Which explains why Lincoln and his cabinet would react very differently several months later when John C. Fremont actually tried to free the slaves of disloyal owners in Missouri.)
The key issue still remaining, of course, is summed up well by Simon Cameron in the final sentence of his letter to Ben Butler. He wrote, "The question of their final disposition will be reserved for further determination"–meaning Lincoln's cabinet placed the exact status of the escaped slaves for the time being in a legal limbo. Brooks Simpson over at Crossroads is absolutely correct when he wrote that contraband of war policy for the slaves "effectively transferr[ed] their ownership to the United States of America (which is not the same thing as granting them freedom)." But if there was good news for the slaves, it was that federal government clearly was not interested in gaining permanent title to their ownership. Escaped slaves momentarily were useful to the Lincoln administration as temporary labor and in denying that same labor to the enemy. They also became useful bargaining chips. In the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation in September 1862, Abraham Lincoln essentially would dangle their return to rebel slaveholders as a reward for resuming their loyalty to the United States. In the end, of course, that gambit would not succeed and the only workable solution was to free the contraband slaves and let them care for themselves, which was what the slaves who fled to Union lines wanted all along. Yet for the slaves at Fortress Monroe in late May 1861 it was enough for the moment they had escaped their owners and were now being paid for their work instead having it and their person and dignity stolen. Which would explain why many thousands of other slaves would follow the path they blazed in the weeks, months, and years that followed.

Vroom Vroom!Jim looks a little worried in the first one, doesn't he?
If only I knew what the article said. Anyone care to translate? http://www.glamaset.com/exclusivos/detalhe.php?id=1192 http://www.glamaset.com/galerias/detalhe.php?id=1193 The truth shall set you free.
It just telling that Jim is riding on the back of a motor-bike on the set of Yes Man, i can't understand all of it couse i speak dutch but thats basicly it.
GEEEZZ When will they stop taking pics of me and Jim??? We were just going for a ride on my motorcycle!lol
I'm a bit dangerous maybe.lol www.youtube.com/user/jimcarreyonline
This is portuguese! My mother language! The only one i know actually...
It says: North american actors Jim Carrey and Zooey Deschanel could have hurt themselves during a dangerous ride on a motor-bike, at the Los Angeles street, in a comedy scene of "Yes Man" from Peyton Reed, in theaters in 2009. It took several takes to finish the scene, but both Carrey and Deschanel did not find it very funny. That's because, the day before, during the rehearsals to the scene, a couple did fell from the bike. The actors did not hurt themselves, but they hope they won't have to do it again. Sorry for my poor English... "Happiness is felt by making other people happy."
thats coz poor Zooey could not bear Jim's weight Or maybe the scooter is too weak that it couldnt bear Zooey's & Jim's weight together at once
I think in this scene Jim says "yes" to Zooey when she offerred him to give a lift.
Motorcycles can be verrrrry.....dangerous, I think Jim knows how to be pretty careful though, it is possible to have a scare . I've thought of getting one but my hubby keeps bringing up all the objections.
thanks for the pics Filomena
