THE TEMPEST on Thursday 26th July 2018
Shakespeare's final solo play is the enchanting opening to this year's outdoor summer season at St Paul's.
Shakespeare's final solo play is the enchanting opening to this year's outdoor summer season at St Paul's. "Oh, wonder! How many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, That has such people in it!" A storm at sea – a ship is broken by the waves, and a king and his court are washed up on the shore of a mysterious island. The desolate isle appears uninhabited but, unseen in the shadows, a powerful magician plots his revenge. The fate of all the shipwrecked souls now rests in his hands. Will he give in to his anger, or will his love for his daughter redeem them all? Inspired by the courtly royal masques of the 17th century, and the designs of Inigo Jones, The Tempest is an evening of pomp and promenade, of magic and illusion. Dress to impress; you're invited to a party at the end of the world. The Tempest is directed by Iris Theatre's artistic director Daniel Winder, following last year's five-star production of Macbeth. "We are such stuff As dreams are made on, and our little life Is rounded with a sleep."

New York: A new study says girls younger than age 17 can safely use emergency contraception without a prescription, and that there`s no reason they should be kept from buying the drug over the counter.
The study, published in this month`s Obstetrics & Gynecology, helped the Food and Drug Administration decide that the pill -- also known as Plan B or the morning-after pill -- could be purchased over the counter by women of any age. In December, however, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) overruled that decision.
"This study confirms findings from two other studies that teens are able to understand (emergency contraception) labeling in order to use it safely and effectively," said Megan L. Kavanaugh, a senior research associate at the Guttmacher Institute in New York, in an email to Reuters Health.
Kavanaugh, who was not involved with the new study, added that these findings indicate "that there is no scientific basis for the continued age restriction on over-the-counter access to Plan B One Step."
Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, led by Dr. Tina Raine, tracked girls between the ages of 13 and 17 who came into health clinics in five cities for the pill.
The pill contains the hormone progestin, which cuts the risk of pregnancy after unprotected sex by stopping the ovaries from releasing an egg.
For the new study, the girls read the information on the product`s box and then told the study`s staff whether or not they still wanted to use it.
The girls who still wanted to use the drug filled out surveys on why they wanted to use it and about their medical history. From that information, the study`s staff determined whether the drug was appropriate for the girls.
Of the 340 girls who earned $10 for participating in the study, the staff decided 311 -- about 92 percent -- correctly used criteria to choose to use or not use the drug based on their answers.
Thirteen of those girls decided not to use the drug because the window during which it would be most effective had passed. The study`s staff gave the 298 girls who correctly chose to use the drug the single-dose pill. Of those, 274 used the drug correctly.
There was no correlation between the correct decision to use the drug -- or use it correctly -- and any specific age.
"There are no medical concerns. That`s why the FDA approved it for them. The concern is more a social, political concern about adolescents having access to these contraceptives," said Cynthia Harper, one of the study`s authors and a professor in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences at UCSF.
The study did have limitations, including self-selection, because girls who choose not to use emergency contraception may be different than those who do.
The new study and its authors were funded by a grant from Teva Pharmaceuticals -- the morning-after pill`s maker. Raine and Harper`s salaries -- along with two of the study`s staff -- were supported by the grant, and two of the authors are Teva employees. The company also covered Raine`s travel to present the information to the FDA in 2007 and 2010.
HHS could not be reached for comment by deadline.

Dec. 3, 2006
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Alex Harris scored 24 points and Chris Devine added 20 as UC Santa Barbara registered a 75-67 nonconference victory over Portland on Saturday.
James Powell added 17 for the Gauchos (5-2), who hit 9 of 14 3-point shots. Harris and Powell each had four of those 3-pointers. In fact, the trio combined for 40 points in the second half as the Gauchos made 62.1% of their shots in the final 20 minutes.
Harris hit his first 3-pointer nine minutes into the game to give Santa Barbara an 18-15 lead. But then the Gauchos went ice cold and went more than seven minutes without scoring a point. Portland responded to that cold spell with a 15-7 run that gave the Pilots a 30-25 lead late in the first half.
But Harris' 3-pointer at the buzzer cut the Gauchos' deficit to 30-28 at intermission. Santa Barbara took the lead for good when Powell hit a 3-pointer to make it 38-36 with 16 minutes left in the game.
Portland cut its deficit to 42-41 when Ben Sullivan hit a 3-pointer, his only one of the game, with 12:19 left. But the Gauchos answered with six straight points, including a dunk by Harris, to push the lead back to 48-41.
The teams traded baskets for most of the remainder of the game but Santa Barbara's lead continued to grow as the Gauchos hit four 3-pointers in a three-minute span that pushed their lead to 62-53 with 6:05 left.
Portland cut the margin to 68-63 when Sherrard Watson hit a 3-pointer with 1:19 left. Then the Gauchos scored seven of the game's next nine points to put the contest away.
The Pilots were led by Watson and Walter Thompson with 13 points each.
The win not only improves UCSB to 5-2 overall, but to a perfect 4-0 on the road. It is the first 4-0 start by the Gauchos since the 1992-93 and with wins at Montana State, UNLV and Portland, to go with a season-opening home win over San Jose State, Santa Barbara has won games in four different states in the same season since the 1989-90 season.
The Gauchos face a very difficult task in their next game as they host unbeaten Fresno State (7-0) on Wednesday, Dec. 6 at the Thunderdome.

She graduated from high school at the age of 16 and took a year of business correspondence classes.
Ellen married John William (Bill) Brock in 1943 and they had three children. They later divorced and she married Ray Alger in Moab, Utah, in 1960.
Ellen had a long and satisfying career. She worked at the Employment Center in Montrose, and was Montrose City Clerk prior to moving to Moab. She went to work for Moab Broadcasting & Television Corporation in its infancy, and she and a business partner, Forrest Simpson, started the KURA radio station in Moab. When they sold the radio station, she worked for the National Park Service for a couple of years as secretary to Bates Wilson, at the time when Canyonlands National Park came into being. She later worked with her husband Ray, helping him run his electrical contracting business, A & E Electric, from which they both retired.
Ellen and Ray enjoyed their retirement years, spending time traveling, and following the race circuit with their quarter horses. They were also active in family life with the kids and grandkids.
Ellen is survived by her husband, Leo Ray Alger; daughter, Kathleen "Katie" Hanway (Murray) of Moab, Utah; daughter, Bonnie (Ray) Walker of Sandy, Utah; and her brother, Roy M. Cairns of Montrose, Colo. Also surviving are nine grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild.
She was preceded in death by her son, James B. Brock of Sandy Utah; and three brothers, Robert, Bert and Ralph Cairns.
Services were held at the Community Church, 544 MiVida Drive in Moab, on Tuesday, April 1 at 11:00. A viewing was held Monday, March 31 at Spanish Valley Mortuary in Moab.
Condolences may be sent to the family at www.SpanishValleyMortuary.com.

I don't like it.
It seems odd to me how young and classy boy makes himself look like some old guy wearing baggy clothes covering his overweight.
I mean, I understand that's your style but for me it's looking so much better when the classics your wear are being updated in a classy urban way, not another way round making modern clothes look like they're overvintage.
Best regards,
Oh that bag! Not sure if i'd be willing to pay 258euro for it though. Guess i should start making money or marry a rich guy.
Love your blog!
yes, it's quite a high price tag, but the quality and fabric will probably make it last your whole life.ReplyDelete

I bought these about 5 years ago from Campmor. They had a clearance on Nikon sunglasses with titanium frames. If I remember right, these sold for about $40. I should have bought 2 pair. When the frames came in, I took them to the optometrist to have my prescription lenses installed. He did the work, but wasn't too happy about it. His titanium frames were much more expensive, and he wasn't making much profit. Tough. It's my money.
Naturally, these glasses are no longer in production so I probably won't be able to find another temple piece. This means I have to get new ones.
Lyndsay pointed out that I could get contact lenses, that is, she mentioned it when she wasn't laughing at me on the way home, driving with my glasses sitting cock-eyed across my nose. She has a good point. Her recent eye exam and contact lenses cost less than a new set of glasses. But I've never had contacts. I've worn glasses since I was about 10 years old, and I'm accustomed to having that protection over my eyes. For a cyclist, some sort of eye protection is necessary because there's always some dust, sand, stones, or insects out there on the road.
Grumble, grumble, grumble.

I love animal companions that fight on your side. The mabari you get in Dragon Age is a great example of why; they're adorable, loyal and not too shabby as fighters.
Borderlands could also benefit from this concept. After all, skags are such a huge part of the universe that you might as well give the player some friendly, trained ones.
In the spirit of Pokémon, one user created this grenade mod that lets you throw Pokéballs that release one of 10 skag variants to fight on your side. That's a feature I would definitely love to see in a Borderlands game.
[Thanks Jason!]

Franklin, Ind. - A 35-yard touchdown pass with 18 seconds remaining gave the Franklin College football team a thrilling 17-10 victory over Washington University-St. Louis on Saturday, November 23, at Faught Stadium in the first round of the NCAA Division III playoffs.
Franklin (8-3) advances to the second round of the playoffs for the third straight season, and won its second home postseason game. Washington University ends the season with an 8-3 record and was making its second appearance in the playoffs.
Senior preseason All-American quarterback Jonny West (Speedway, Ind./Speedway) connected with sophomore reserve split end Kendal Butler (Toledo, Ill./Cumberland) on the winning touchdown pass which split the middle of the Washington University defense.
It was a broken pass play in which junior wingback Jonny Hession (Speedway, Ind./Speedway) was the original target.
"I thought Jonny was going to catch the ball, but I could tell that the wind was taking the ball in my direction," said Butler about the game-winning play. "I made a play and I'm glad we got the win."
West added, "The play was intended for Jonny. That's where it was going, but Kendall went on the same route and made the play."
The scoring play culminated a hectic fourth quarter in which the host Grizzlies scored 10 points after the Bears had taken a 10-7 lead on a 14-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Eric Daginella to sophomore running back Cody Ratermann with 10:40 left in the quarter.
A 36-yard field goal by senior placekicker Mike Wood (Greenwood, Ind./Center Grove) tied the game with 4:33 left in the game. Then, on its final possession of the game, Franklin drove 48 yards on four plays for the winning score.
"I kept telling the guys that things would turn around and they had to envision the victory," said Franklin College Head Coach Mike Leonard. "Washington University had a great game plan on defense. It was a game controlled by the wind and we had that advantage in the fourth quarter."
Franklin had one of the most productive offenses at the Division III level during the regular season, leading the nation in passing offense (360.5 yards per game) and being fourth in scoring offense (48.6 points per game). However, Washington University's defense kept the Grizzlies in check for most of the game, twice intercepting West and getting a fumble that set up the 14-yard touchdown pass.
West completed 35 passes for 262 yards and the two touchdowns. Linville led the team with 14 receptions and 114 yards.
Daginella led Washington University by completing 13 passes for 205 yards and one touchdown. He also rushed for 41 yards. Ratermann caught three passes for 114 yards and rushed 16 times for 42 yards.
Defensively, senior Scott Moore (Kingman, Ind./Fountain Central) led the team with nine tackles. Senior Jordan Segner (Anderson, Ind./Highland), sophomore Nate Bryan (Greencastle, Ind./North Putnam) and sophomore Keaton Lyons (Rensselaer, Ind./Rensselaer Central) each added seven stops.
"We knew that we had to stop the run," added Moore about the team's defense allowing 105 yards on 38 attempts (2.8 yards per rush). "We were able to get off the field on third downs and had a huge sack that helped set up the winning drive."
The game marked the first meeting between the two Midwest programs.
Franklin advances to play in the second round against the winner of Wisconsin-Whitewater/St. Norbert College on Saturday, November 30. Game information will be announced on www.franklingrizzlies.com.

Sony has just released a teaser to Michael Jackson's new album "MICHAEL" due out next month ... but there's a big controversy over whether some of the vocals are real or fake.
In the teaser, which promotes the album's big song, "Breaking News," all we hear from Michael Jackson is a brief scream.
The question ... is it Michael Jackson's scream or that of an impostor???
By the way ... someone we know has heard the entire album and says it's "unbelievably good." Our spy says some of the tracks sound a little like Justin Timberlake, but they are all Michael.

East Texas Honors Those Who Gave Their Lives
Driving through Chandler, TX yesterday, I saw an awesome display honoring those military service men and women who have given their life to protect our freedoms that we enjoy today. The simple field of flags was an amazing site. Watching them fly in the wind as I sat at the signal light at Hwy. 31 and FM 315 was though provoking.
Today, as you enjoy this day off with your family and friends in the lake, at a bbq or spending time together, take time to remember those that have given the ultimate sacrifice for our country. After all, it is because of them we are still able to do the things we want to do.

Hi there,
I made a new static page to use as the front page, and I want to hide the center column (the one that contains all the posts) only on that page. I already set up a different page as the posts page, so the content of the center column isn't showing up on the front page. However, the box/container for the center column is still there and it's displacing my sidebars.
I temporarily added CSS to hide the center column -- I used display: none; -- which worked for my front page, but now the center column disappeared from every page!
I feel comfortable enough getting into the theme files and editing them manually, but I'm just not sure where to go to specify that I only want the center column hidden on the front page.
Here's the site: elizabethpovinelli.com
As you can see, if you click on "blog" there is nothing there...
Thanks in advance for your help!

Wisconsin mosquito season off to an annoying start
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Mosquito season is already off to an annoying start in northern Wisconsin. The problem has been so bad that one canoeing company turned away customers rather than send them on a bug-infested river. But the overall summer outlook might not be so bad. PJ Liesch is an entomologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He says an abrupt change in weather conditions caused mosquitoes to hatch all at once instead of gradually. He says that might make the season seem worse than usual, but early indications suggest it'll be average. Ed Hammer runs Wisconsin River Outfitters in Lake Tomahawk. He's turned away half a dozen customers, saying he doesn't want bugs to ruin their adventures. He says swarms have been so massive that their buzzing is easily audible.

Rangers play down debt report
England claimed their first win over Brazil in nearly a quarter
of a century as they won 2-1 at Wembley.
On a memorable night, which saw Ashley Cole claim his 100th cap
for his country, England went ahead on 27 minutes through Wayne
His goal came just moments after Joe Hart had brilliantly kept
out Ronaldinho's penalty but, just after the break, Brazil
substitute Fred flashed home an excellent equaliser and not long
after he struck the woodwork.
But it was another replacement – Frank Lampard – who ensured
England beat Brazil for the first time in 23 years as the
midfielder side-footed home clinically from the edge of the box to
give Roy Hodgson's side victory.
England looked dangerous early on with Jack Wilshere impressing
on his return to the international stage, but he was adjudged to
have handled a Ronaldinho cross, which gave the Atletico Mineiro
man a chance to open the scoring.
However, on his 100th appearance for his country, Ronaldinho saw
his shot parried by Hart and the Manchester City keeper beat him to
the rebound before Neymar was unable to convert from close
It was no surprise, though, that Arsenal midfielder Wilshere
played a major part in the build-up to England's opening goal after
26 minutes from Rooney.
His pass picked out the surge forward of Gunners team-mate Theo
Walcott, whose low drive was blocked by QPR keeper Julio Cesar.
However, Rooney seized on the rebound and coolly tucked away his
33rd goal for his country with a low drive straight down the middle
of the goal.
England attacked with plenty of pace and Walcott fired over the
bar but they had a let-off after 37 minutes when the highly-rated
Neymar slid in at the far post and shot over from close range after
Oscar had outpaced Chelsea team-mate Cole before crossing.
Leighton Baines and Lampard replaced Cole and Tom Cleverley
respectively at the start of the second period, whilst Brazil made
a hat-trick of substitutions with Fred, Arouca and Lucas replacing
Fabiano, Ramires and Ronaldinho.
Steven Gerrard forced Cesar to parry his dipping drive two
minutes into the second half but a mistake by Gary Cahill saw Fred
equalise 60 seconds later.
The Chelsea defender was caught in possession bringing the ball
out from defence and in an instant Fred drilled a fierce shot past
Hart from the edge of the box. The goalscorer almost struck again
when his shot rattled the bar after Hart's clearance had bounced
off Cahill.
But Cahill almost made amends for his error when he got on the
end of a Gerrard corner and saw his header tipped over the bar by
Cesar. The keeper then fingertipped away Walcott's ball into the
danger area but Gerrard could not keep his follow-up shot down.
England were not to be denied the win over Brazil as Lampard
restored their lead on the hour. Walcott's centre was only
partially cleared and Wilshere turned the ball back to Lampard,
whose curling shot hit the inside of a post and crossed the line
for his 27th England goal.
Channel 4 News reported that Orlit Enterprises was seeking a
winding-up order over an alleged debt of ?400,000 for helping
source the initial investment which helped Charles Green's company
acquire the assets and business of oldco Rangers in June last
However, Rangers tonight played down the debt and claimed a
repayment plan had been agreed.
The club issued a "court petition statement", which read: "With
regard to stories circulating about Rangers and Orlit, the sums
sought are insignificant and agreement has been reached subject to
the necessary paperwork.
"Rangers Football Club is capable of meeting any debts presented
legitimately and we would like to stress to our supporters there is
no threat to the club whatsoever.
"The matter is unworthy of further comment."

PLANO, TEXAS -- I discovered that my debit card number was stolen and two entities charged services to my card without my knowledge or permission. Compass Bank OBVIOUSLY doesn't know that criminals DON'T take a holiday! I discovered the fraudulent charges on, Monday, May 31, 2010. I was on hold for over three hours! I had to change my cordless phone because I was on hold so long, the batteries died. They never answered! So what if this was Memorial Day. Many businesses are open, and Compass Bank should be open 24/7 to handle these sorts of things.
I called the bank on Tuesday morning, and was told to physically go to the nearest branch. I went to the Windhaven location in Plano, Texas. ** was the agent. I told him the situation and he said they could do nothing until the charges cleared. I told him I wanted to freeze my account to prevent other charges on my debit card, AND HE REFUSED!!! I then went back to my office, got on the phone, and requested the dispute forms. Compass Bank waited until JUNE 4th to mail them to me, and I didn't receive them until, JUNE 7!! Thank GOD the charges were very small, or I would have been in a world of hurt until the charges were reversed.
The fact of the matter is, that Compass Bank was totally NOT PROACTIVE in not only preventing further fraudulent charges, but not proactive to quickly address my situation. They also took over a week to replace my debit card, which prevented me from paying my online bills, and prevented me from getting the things I needed without having to go to the bank and write a check for cash. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!!! THEY STINK!! I have since gone to another bank chain, and got a much better deal. I have also CLOSED my CompASS Bank account. I have been a loyal customer of Compass Bank for nearly 10 years, and they don't care!
CASTLE PINES NORTH, COLORADO -- I am not a customer of Compass Bank (took my account out of there about four years ago because of other ridiculous policies). However, I do use their ATM on occasion because it is at the corner by my house (I have an account with USAA Federal Savings bank, which does not have local branches). I used the ATM at the drive-through last week, and drove away without my ATM/debit card. I realized it about an hour later, and returned to the bank to retrieve my card.
I waited for the one teller to finish a transaction with the drive-through banking (which seemed to be a big problem, and required the intervention of a superior), then another teller came in from her break, I asked for my card which I had left in the ATM. I described my card, the color, the name on it and said I had my identification to claim it. The other teller confirmed that there had been a card retrieved from the ATM, but, when I mentioned it was not a Compass Bank ATM card, they would not surrender my card to me. They said it was company policy.
I asked them twice, maybe three times to clarify that that was truly company policy, and they just stood there and said, yes, we cannot give you your card. So, my card was sitting on the other side of the teller stations, and I could not have it. As a result, I had to order another card from my bank, at a charge of $8 to get it here quickly. I also now have to change ALL my automatic payments that were previously set up using the other card number with the new card number.
Doesn't this seem like a rather ridiculous policy? When a potential customer (everyone is a potential customer) is standing in front of you, requesting the card she knows she left in your ATM, describing the card and offering her ID, and you WILL NOT give her her own ATM card. Seems silly to me... Thanks for your time.
How can I get-Compassbank, aka BBVA Compass Bank - fees reversed? It all started 3 weeks ago when a double payment was mailed to a credit card company through an electronic payment system they offer to their customers. I had this second account, yet it appeared again and the extra payment was sent. I was notified that my account was overdrawn and that's when I noticed the extra payment I again, set up another account for the biller and deleted the current account. I then sent the money that would have balanced my account. Needless to say, a couple of days ago, I checked my account online, and there it was again.
The account for the biller had defaulted to the previous due date of 11-02 and my electronic wire, which is always posted within hours did not post for a whole day. Now there were more charges for NSF, over the limit fees. They also pulled from the overdraft protection account an additional. 06 yes, six cents, which caused a $12 transaction fee and an over the limit fee on my account. I spoke with a bank representative, who told me that it was all my fault. I had cancelled the biller account for December and was responsible for all the fees.
I know that this is not true, I had double checked the account to made sure that my future payment for the biller, Capitol one would start in December. I had already spoken to them and hey agreed to apply the extra payment to the following month of November 2009. When I spoke with the bank representative, I was told that I couldn't pay my overdraft over the phone and that I could not manage that account or make transfers between checking and overdraft. I guess they want to be able to pull 06 cents and charge $24 + for the transactions.
FYI - I also made the mistake of overpaying the overdraft card in the past. Compass would not Deposit the extra funds into my checking account. I had to request a reimbursement and wait until they got around to sending it to me. I was asked to come in to take care of the account. Im a USA citizen living and working in South Korea (have for 2 years) and this is not possible. The bank has all my overseas information on file, including contact phone. I gave it to their branch office when I was in Arizona a couple of months ago.
I have had this account for 29 years and have been through many buy outs. Since they got bought out by BBVA, I have had a lot of trouble. I'm closing the account and just want some relief for all the vile things they have done, these past few weeks. Any advice or feedback will be greatly appreciated
DENVER, COLORADO -- Recently I received an email about the President's new Home Affordable program and some expansion to the initial terms. The email stated that the new, allowable LTV ratio was being changed from 105% to 125%. This was great news for me and could potentially save me several hundred dollars per month on my first mortgage loan. However, when I contacted the lender I had chosen to do the refinance on my first loan, I was told that they could not do anything to help me because Compass Bank holds the note on my Home Equity Line of Credit, which is currently in second position.
Evidently Compass Bank has a policy that they will not allow a refinance, unless they are moved into first position at the time of the closing on the refinance. With that being their policy, I am dead in the water. No lender will do a refi and agree to put their new loan in a second position, behind Compass Bank's current HELOC. Compass Bank's stance seems to be that if someone is interested in refinancing, they must be in trouble and about to default on their loan, so they want to be sure to move their loan up to first position in order to get their money if something happens.
What makes no sense to me is that if someone is in trouble and needs the refi in order to keep up with payments, and Compass doesn't allow it to happen, Compass stands to lose everything if a foreclosure or short sale ends up happening. I would think that they would want to help, not just because it is the right thing to do, but also because by allowing someone to refinance, they are more than likely going to make it easier for the individual to stay current on the second loan as well. Anyway, I am not in trouble at this point, but would still like to be able to reduce my monthly payment through refinancing.
Unfortunately, Comapass Bank's policy makes it impossible for me to take advantage of this opportunity. It certainly seems that someone at Compass needs to rethink their position and consider actually trying to help people out during these tough times. I am very disappointed in this company and their apparent lack of compassion. It seems that money is all they care about. I have multiple accounts with them currently from business to personal, which I will be moving to another institution as soon as possible. Thanks for nothing Compass Bank!
On June 30th, I called my bank to match my account balance to find that it was in the negative. It has been years since I bounced anything, so I went to a nearby branch and requested a statement. I was given a statement for the previous month and saw that I was about to have four more transactions go through which would put me further in the negative. Frustrated with myself, realizing I would end up owing nearly $300 in fees, I left the bank almost in tears. Continuing on my errands, I kept thinking that the statement didn't make sense. I stopped at the next branch and spoke to one of their representatives.
It took awhile, but I finally understood what happened and where I went wrong. I miscalculated regarding when I was getting my direct deposit by one day, spending $ I thought I had but didn't. I thanked the representative and then told her that I was worried about the other transactions going through because even though my next paycheck would cover it, it wouldn't be for another week and a half which make the account further in the negative. The representative told me that she knew that the branch could wave 2 overdraft fees (exactly how many that I had at the time, $78 which would cover the overdrafts and the other transactions but she had to get permission.
She was able to do so and told me that if I incur any other overdrafts due to my mistake, I could go to the branch in which I opened the account and they would work with me. She then told me my accounted would be credited by midnight that night which it was. She gave me her business card and told me to call her with any questions or issues the next day. I have never had a problem with my bank, and the time that I messed up unintentionally, they fixed it for me. It is rare to get that kind of service anywhere, especially banks!
Customers of Online Banking with Compass Bank should double check the upper left corner of their screen to make sure that their log on user ID is being encrypted (secret coded). The URL address should show https:// Be sure that there is the letter "s" following http before you type in your User Name (ID). The "s" indicates that you are now in a "secure session". Compass Bank suggest that their online customers download and install the security software "Rapport" onto their PC.
If you do this you should make sure that the Rapport designator (to the right of the URL box) shows up green before typing in any personal information. If the designator shows up grey then Rapport is not protecting anything. I have found that over half of Compass Bank's online websites are not being protected by Rapports security software. I am not suggesting that you change banks but only want to inform you on how to check for a "secure web session" when entering any personal information. The info that I have provided you here is a method of checking for security on all web sites when you are asked to enter personal information.
The only reason that I mention Compass Bank is because I have spent hours of time with representatives of the bank with this security issue. So far I have not found anybody within the bank that is concerned about it. Hopefully that will change in the near future. If so then I will update this information to you.
CASA GRANDE, ARIZONA -- Started a refi with Compass Bank the first week of January so that we could get away from boa. Let me tell you, Compass could teach BOA a thing or two about being incompetent. First, we were assured our loan would not be sold to BOA, compass sells their loans in-house. They need more info, more info, more info. We jump through their hoops and do everything asked of us. We have a trust, they want to copy every page of our trust. What business is it of theirs what we want our bodies cremated when we die or that my husband's son is not left anything, but we comply. Well, finally March 15 comes and we are to close.
Closing costs are twice what the loan officer quoted us and they now want to charge us $250 more because the rate lock had expired. The bank manager did get the $250 taken off. We went ahead and closed because we had already paid $444 up-front for an appraisal and could not face going through this again. Next thing we know, they want to charge us $20 to get our cash-out deposed into our account.
As of yesterday, March 21, they still need more papers signed. As of today, March 22, none of the disbursements have been done and our home equity line which was to be paid off is now past due. I called them this morning and they tell me they have no record of a loan with our names or social security numbers. Take my advice, do not ever deal with Compass Bank.
DALLAS, TEXAS -- Apparently, after speaking with BBVA Compass Bank support today, online banking with Compass Bank doesn't necessarily work with Apple's Safari browser. To me, this is unacceptable and somewhat irresponsible as Compass Bank is forcing its customers to move to online banking or pay high monthly fees It was suggested that I download another browser on my Apple computer which I do not want to do.
Also, in setting up online banking with Compass Bank it suggests using a Rapport security program for its online banking; however, it is not apparent that once the program is installed, it cannot be uninstalled even though the program has an "uninstaller" and says the program has been uninstalled. I am worried about a bank that "recommends" such a program for security purposes.
TEXAS -- I needed to transfer funds from one of my accounts to another that was going to go negative, but after multiple attempts on multiple devices I continued to receive the message "Online Banking Error". I left a message and request for help in the online chat box an hour before this service was to close, but never received a response and the customer help phone line was already closed. Thus, I will be assessed a penalty fee for being overdrawn which is only money in the pocket of Compass Bank.

Super Bowl Giveaway: The Bacon Explosion
You may remember last year we introduced you to The Bacon Explosion: a mat of woven bacon layered with sausage and more bacon (I mean, why not) that's sauced up then rolled and smoked. Jason Day and Aaron Chronister of BBQ Addicts, the creators of the far-from-vegetarian concept, developed it for last year's Super Bowl and now one year later, are actually selling them online, all rolled up and ready to heat.
Picture a normal Super Bowl party spread (cheese dip, chili, wings, oh hey guacamole). Now envision a table with space made for The Bacon Explosion. Maybe a few more friends would RSVP when there's a meat log involved? (Packed with at least 5,000 calories and 500 grams of fat, but who's really counting.) Jason and Aaron are sending them to three lucky Serious Eaters just in time for next Sunday's game.
But obviously we're going to make you work for it. To enter to win, please give us a quote about bacon. Be it funny, profound, or inspirational—the three best also have the chance to appear on the back cover of their soon-to-be-released book BBQ Makes Everything Better. The book is all about barbecue, not just bacon or bacon monstrosities.
Contest will end and comments will close at 3 p.m. ET, Monday, February 1, 2010. One entry per community member. Winners are limited to residents of the continental U.S. Standard Serious Eats contest rules apply.

A look at our D's experience compared to 2000 and 2006
OK - I have been terrified (as have many of you) by our defense. I feel as though I keep hearing versions of the following: "be patient, it is going to get better, we are so young"
So in a very unscientific way I decided to look at our Defense's experience as opposed to two teams that I fondly remember: the 2000 Drew Henson led squad that beat Auburn in the Citrus or Outback bowl and the 2006 juggernaught (when playing non OSU/USC's). Why did I pick them? to gauge our teams experience against a standard Llloyd U of M "D" and against the non-1997 gold standard "D." So first off I make no distinction about Redshirts...so a Redshirt Junior will show as a Senior, a Redshirt Sophomore - a Junior, etc. The reason is they have been in the system for X number of years. I looked only at the top 16 tacklers for each team - my thinking that this will cover most all defensive contributor.
So on with the numbers:
The 2000 squad had 3 seniors (4th or 5th year players), 5 Juniors (inclused RS Sophs), 7 Sophomores, and 1 Freshmen.
The 2006 squad had 9 Seniors, 5 Juniors, 2 Sophomores, and 0 frosh
This years team has 8 Seniors, 4 Juniors, 3 sophomores, and 1 frosh.
My takeaway: wow-our current D has way more experience than I thought...and if the future is as bright as we hope, the bench better have a lot of future quality sitting on it.
In case you are wondering the 8 "seniors" are Moundros, Herron, Leach, Van Bergen, Rogers, Banks, Ezeh, Mouton.
I was actually expecting that looking into this experience would make me feel a lot better for the future of our "D", but it really didn't. Here's to hope.
Go Blue.

Brown rice rottisThursday, September 2nd, 2010
One of the easiest and quick snack in the evenings (or even breakfast) is Akki rotti (rice flour rottis), very famous in Bangalore. Back home in Tamilnadu we call it as arisi rotti. My mom made it as a quick after school snack when I was a kid. This year when I had time to roam around Bangalore, I was surprised to see the demand for these rottis in AS Iyengar stores in Jaynagar. People were standing in a queue and ordering anywhere between 12-50 rottis. The ones sold in the shop are paper thin, and as crunchy as a masala dosa, served with a coconut chutney, these are favorites of almost everyone. This is the favorite breakfast of N's grandmother too!
Couple of days ago, I cooked brown rice to make some fried rice and had a cup of cooked rice left over and staring at me. I know for sure it I stored it in the fridge, its going to stay there for 2-3 days and then go to the bin. Instead, I just thought of using the rice in rottis.
Usually, rice flour is cooked in boiling water and then made as rottis. Since the rice is already cooked, I just mashed it in the blender and made rottis like the regular ones.
Ingredients: (Makes 6 rottis)
Cooked Brown rice- 1 cup
Salt to taste
Chopped onions- 1/4 cup
Chopped green chilies- 1 tbsp
Chopped coriander leaves (cilantro)- 2 tbsp
Chopped Ginger- 1/2 tsp
Regular rice flour- 1 tsp
For tempering:
Oil- 1/2 tsp
Mustard seeds- 1/2 tsp
Hing- 1 pinch
Curry leaves- 1 or 2
Pulse the cooked rice in the blender so that it gets to the consistency of a paste, but not like baby food. Add chopped onions, ginger, green chilies, salt and cilantro.
Heat oil in a pan and add hing and mustard seeds, when they splutter, add curry leaves and add this tempering to the mashed rice.
Mix all the ingredients well. If the mixture is too mushy, add a tea spoon of rice flour to bind them well.
Heat a frying pan and add a couple of drops of oil.
Keep a bowl of water handy.
Make a lemon size ball of the rice mixture. Place the ball on the pan. Dip your fingers in the water and quickly pat the ball into a round shape, almost like a crepe. Make sure that you do not make the rottis too thin, as it will be tough to flip them and your fingers will get in touch with the pan if the rotti is too thin!
(Alternatively you can make rottis in a ziplock bag/plantain leaf and transfer it to the pan, like how we make vadais)
Keep the flame on medium-low and let it cook slowly. If you need oil, you can add it on the sides like we do for dosa. Do not keep moving it or turning it, once it is ready to turn (after 2-3 minutes on the first side), gently flip it to the second side and cook it for another 2 minutes till both sides are golden brown.
Transfer to a plate and serve it with any chutney, or with pickles. It actually tastes good on its own!
Note: You can make the rottis thick like cutlets or thin like dosas. Tempering is optional.
This brown rice rotti is on its way to Priya's Only Low oil/Low calorie event , started by Pari.

At this time last year, a group of professionals in the health and senior care industries got together to form a consortium to help keep senior citizens in the Chestnut Hill area. Maureen Robertson, Marketing Director at Arbor Terrace at Chestnut Hill, has been the point person in developing the group to 10 members.
The consortium meets once a month and has recently put together a website along with the promotion of a workshop by Teepa Snow, an expert on dementia. Caregivers and area healthcare professionals received continuing education credits for attending the seminar on May 14 at Arbor Terrace in which Snow theatrically showed her audience what it was like for someone with dementia.
Snow will again be speaking at Chestnut Hill Hospital's Main Conference Room on Tuesday, Sept. 11, 5:45 pm. The program is open to the public and to members of the healthcare community seeking continuing education credits. Space is limited, and reservations must be made by Sept. 5 by calling 215-247-5307.
In her previous talk, Snow detailed the different kinds of dementia and had pictures of healthy and unhealthy brains and went over methods of dealing with a host of dementia issues, including the way individuals with dementia view the world.
"This was very informative. She really paints a vivid picture of what's normal and what's not and how to get into the mind of someone who has dementia," said Leslie Hatcher, who has a sister in the Memory Care Unit at Arbor Terrace.
Holly Dender, a Wyndmoor-based occupational therapist, said she thought she knew a lot about dementia care until she heard Snow's talk.
"Her energy and humor captivated the audience, but it was also quite informative in terms of what is going on in their heads and how we can communicate better with this population," Dender said.
Robertson said the consortium concept grew out of a need that she and others were feeling regarding longtime residents and their desire to stay in the area.
"We here at the Arbor Company started to realize that there were so many families that were falling through the cracks who didn't have answers to many different issues relating to the care of somebody they love," she said. "I took care of my mother in 2001 for a year, and I wasn't in the healthcare industry at the time and didn't realize that hospice would have been a good option for us. Instead, she was in the hospital when she really would have benefited from hospice."
Keystone House, a Wyndmoor-based hospice, is a consortium member, as is Chestnut Hill Senior Care Center, an adult day program where people with dementia can go seven days a week for activities.
"I think the consortium is a wonderful way to keep people in their own community. There are home care agencies, home physicians, adult day programs, hospice care and even respite programs available," said Laura Grassia, Chestnut Hill Senior Care Center Director. "We are all sitting down and learning more about what each member does. There is a dialogue going on."
Other members include Genesis Rehab Services, Bayada Home Health Care, Liebling Elder Care, Life Choices and Chestnut Hill Healthcare. Members recently learned that Arbor Terrace has developed a 30-day respite program for families in crisis.
"So many times patients are released from the Emergency Room, and they can't go back home right away," said Robertson. "We have a 30-day program where families can know that their loved one is being cared for while they explore all of the options and give them some breathing room."
Wendy Liebling of the Flourtown-based Liebling Elder Care knew about the respite program but said she was glad that other consortium members are learning more about it. "So often we are dealing with families in crisis and trying to find the right services. When we have a little more breathing room then everybody benefits."
Consortium member Elaine Gilbride, Director of Case Management at Chestnut Hill Healthcare, was bullish on the idea of the consortium. "We use the information gathered to inform patients of the variety of services at all levels of care that are available locally."
Robertson said that if any prospective members fit in with the mission, they would be welcome. "There are really no fees. We did ask consortium members for $50 to get the web site up, but we are really a community resource for families to turn to in an effort to help their loved one and to try to keep them in the Chestnut Hill area. We just want to make each organization aware of the services available."

Chef Tony's Clams and Mussels
- 2 lbs mussels
- 2 lbs clams
- 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- Two pinches of black pepper
- Two pinches of salt
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 3 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
- 3 tablespoons chiffonade basil
When you prepare a mussels and clams the most important thing is washing and cleaning them well.
First of all, brush the clams & mussels surface with a small brush under running water; then place seafood in a bowl in the sink, under running and fresh water, and leave them to soak for about 30 minutes.
At this point, drop the seafood into a colander, then shake to remove all the grains of sand and pat dry.
After that, pour 6 tablespoons of extra virgin olive in a pan, add the minced garlic and fry for a few minutes, add two pinches of pepper and two pinches of salt. Stir and add a pour in the glass of white wine, then add mussels and clams. Cook for 4-5 minutes shaking the pan occasionally, or until the shells open. Remove from heat and discard any shells that did not open. Pour into a serving bowl and add Italian parsley and chiffonade basil. Serve and Enjoy.

The Vet's closing was a celebration to remember
Even now, 10 years later, Ruben Amaro Jr. gets a little choked up talking about the final game played at Veterans Stadium. His father coached there when the Phillies won the first World Series championship in franchise history there in 1980. He was the batboy. Amaro Jr. also later went on to wear the red pinstripes there as a player.
"I remember being really emotional about it," Amaro Jr. said. "I remember crying. It was a pretty amazing thing. We all grew up there. Being a part of the Vet, that was all I knew as a kid. So that was a pretty extraordinary day and something I'll never forget -- what it meant to me and what it meant to be there with my father."
Even now, 10 years later, Ruben Amaro Jr. gets a little choked up talking about the final game played at Veterans Stadium. His father coached there when the Phillies won the first World Series championship in franchise history there in 1980. He was the batboy. Amaro Jr. also later went on to wear the red pinstripes there as a player.
"I remember being really emotional about it," Amaro Jr. said. "I remember crying. It was a pretty amazing thing. We all grew up there. Being a part of the Vet, that was all I knew as a kid. So that was a pretty extraordinary day and something I'll never forget -- what it meant to me and what it meant to be there with my father."
Even now, a decade later, there's a catch in the voice of Larry Bowa when he's asked about the Vet. He was the manager of the Phillies at the time. Bowa was also a Phils coach and player at the big concrete doughnut at the corner of Broad and Pattison.
"There were a lot of good memories there," Bowa said. "Obviously, winning the World Series there was the ultimate. So you're talking about tearing something down that meant a lot to a lot of people. A lot of guys spent their careers there. It wasn't fun to play on that [artificial] turf all year, but the fact is we had some good times. And, obviously, in the early '70s, we weren't real good. But to see that evolve and come out and win a World Series in that period of time, there were some good memories."
Veterans Stadium opened to great fanfare in 1971. By the time the last game was played there on Sept. 28, 2003, the perception of the multipurpose stadium had changed dramatically. It was widely derided as outdated and, compared to Oriole Park at Camden Yards and the other retro parks that sprouted in its wake, it probably was.
Still, like all stadiums, it was never about the concrete and steel. It was about the people and events. The Phillies lost that last game, 5-2, to the Braves. Rookie second baseman Chase Utley made the final out. Pat Burrell had the last Phils hit, Marlon Byrd scored the final run and Dan Plesac threw the last pitch and notched the last strikeout.
None of those facts are the takeaway from that perfect crystal-blue sunny afternoon, though. What endures is the amazingly moving hour-long postgame ceremony that followed.
It began with the strain of "Unforgettable" floating through the soft autumn air. Harry Kalas took center stage, as he had so many times before, his familiar baritone booming to the first of dozens of standing ovations. Images flickered across the giant Phanavision screen: Richie Ashburn. Bowa. Mike Schmidt. Steve Carlton. Darren Daulton. Paul (the Pope) Owens. Jim Thome. The 1980 championship team.
Owens, the architect of the first sustained run of excellence in franchise history, was brought in on a golf cart. Battling illness, it was uncertain until the last moment whether he'd be able to attend. His presence added to the aura.
Then the parade began. A flag representing each year of the stadium's existence was marched to the plate followed by one of more players representing that season. Bob Dernier (1983) slid headfirst into home plate, reprising the dramatic finish of his game-winning, extra-inning, inside-the-park home run six years later. Steve Bedrosian (1989) lay on his back and made "snow angels" on the mound. Von Hayes (1989) picked up a handful of dirt as a keepsake.
Next: Those players and coaches, 99 in all, formed an arc and a "starting lineup" of three players for each position was introduced. Allen, first base, jumped on home plate. Bowa, shortstop, jumped even higher and pumped his fist as the crowd roared. Larry Christenson, right-handed pitcher, wore the old all-maroon uniform. Danny Jackson, left-handed pitcher, did his pump-us-up routine.
Thousands of cameras recorded every minute.
Kalas led the crowd in singing "Auld Lang Syne." Then the finale, which reached for a high note ... and nailed it.
Carlton, the best lefty to wear a Phillies uniform, went to the mound, mimed his familiar delivery and threw a phantom pitch. Schmidt, the best player the franchise has ever called its own, stepped to the plate, took his stance, hit an imaginary home run and trotted around the bases. When he reached the plate he was greeted by Thome, whose 47 homers that year tied for the Major League lead but fell just one short of what was then Schmidt's franchise record. The men high-fived.
It was left, fittingly, for Tug McGraw to be the closer. Fighting brain cancer, he recreated the scene when he threw the fastball past Kansas City's Willie Wilson that finally won a World Series for an organization that has been around since 1883. One more time he danced to the front of the mound and raised his arms in triumph.
The players and coaches circled the field, waving to the crowd. General manager Ed Wade and Dallas Green, the manager of the 1980 team, helped Owens back to the field so he, too, could step on the plate one last time. Fireworks exploded. Kalas declared the Vet officially "Outta here!"
A total of 2,617 regular-season games, 25 postseason games and more than 500 players later, it was over.
The participants headed upstairs for a private party. An hour later, hundreds of fans still lingered, unwilling to let go. Maybe they were thinking about Kiteman or the Great Wallenda or Pete Rose making an emergency catch of a pop foul that squirted out catcher Bob Boone's glove in Game 6 of the 1980 World Series. Or any of a thousand other great moments.
Rose, a final ingredient that helped the 1980 team win it all, was notably absent. He was, and still is, barred by Major League Baseball from any role in the game as part of his plea bargain for betting on baseball while manager of the Cincinnati Reds.
A group of policeman who had protected the field had their pictures taken on the mound. The grounds crew removed the plate and pitcher's rubber.
It was a special afternoon, bathed in warmth and nostalgia.
"What I particularly remember is that my dad and I were on the field together," Amaro Jr. recalled. "He and I being on the field at the same time, that was pretty extraordinary. I don't think we were ever together in uniform. So that was a really cool memory for me."
It was a special afternoon. And it became even more special in hindsight. Both Owens and McGraw passed away before Veterans Stadium was demolished and Citizens Bank Park officially opened on April 12, 2004.

i don't understand why CBS reveal the final 3 teams in the preview
No signs of a memory challenge so far...
Quote from: nyoman_sb1 on May 01, 2013, 12:03:28 AMi don't understand why CBS reveal the final 3 teams in the preview Because not revealing the final 3 teams in the final leg preview is too mainstream. Quote from: georgiapeach on May 01, 2013, 12:05:42 AMNo signs of a memory challenge so far... I really hope that they combine the memory challenge with the secret agent task. Anyway, is someone know what Max's saying during the secret agent task? I heard words like "good half smoked and chili".
Not much, but:Phil KeoghanNext week
a two hour season finale, great challenges and another unpredictable finish @NoOppWasted #AmazingRaceUnpredictable = Mona & Beth pulling off the win against Bates & Anthony? Just my 2 cents.
Unpredictable finish is probably the usual hyperbole. Remember "closest finish ever"?? That was an example.
People, check the live sightings...and you'll have a good idea of was shown to have a lead.
So Max/Katie win this race?
Could the Hockey Brothers possibly not make the top 3, and the 3 others teams possibly have a close race to the finish in Leg 12?I would never think that the Hockey Brothers would get eliminated, but they aren't worried about using the word 'un-predictable' about this season.

So much has been said and written about the battle between Martin and Zimmerman – I don't think I can add to all the hype.
Just a few weeks ago the news night and day was about the unfortunate death of Travon Martin. If you tried to get any other news from the cable channels, you were out of luck.
So much has been said and written about the battle between Martin and Zimmerman – I don't think I can add to all the hype, the accusations and the emotions portrayed by many parties.
After this issue has now faded to the background, it remains abundantly clear that the race card is being played stronger than ever by certain purveyors of hate. In fact, certain political leaders and other hangers-on are continuing to make a career of keeping racism alive. If racism doesn't exist, let's invent certain phrases, comments or even facts to fit the pattern.
To be specific one of the generals in this devious effort is the insufferable black minister, Mr. Al Sharpton. Mr. Sharpton has a talk show on the extreme liberal television station MSNBC. It is educational to tune into this program just to see and hear how much vitriol and extremism can be put into one program. His constant referral to the whites and their attempt to treat all blacks as slaves is just one example. I'm quite sure my liberal friends and some liberals who wouldn't want to be classified as my friends would reject the rhetoric used by Mr. Sharpton.
So why do I listen and watch some of this garbage? Because in my opinion we should know the extent of extremism by the loony left, and the character that always jumps to the front when the media tries to invent racism is our old friend Jesse Jackson. He has been discredited so many times it's comical, but here again this is how he makes his living.
When I worked in Kansas City, at the request of one of our clients, I attended a meeting of PUSH which is one of Jesse's organizations. It was eye-opening indeed. PUSH was formed to achieve equal opportunities for minorities. But Mr. Jackson doesn't stop there, he wants favoritism for minorities. He has been successful by putting pressure on large corporations and engaging in a lightly disguised act of extortion.
The good news is there are now a whole cadre of black conservatives who are showing real leadership and making the tactics of Jesse Jackson no longer appealing to so many minorities.
Typical to the type of characters pursued to be followers of Mr. Jackson is adding former Chicago Democrat Congressman Mel Reynolds to the payroll of the RAINBOW/PUSH organization. What can you say about Mr. Reynolds? Actually quite a lot. Reynolds was among the 176 criminals excused in President Clinton's last minute forgiveness spree.
Mr. Reynolds was not just an ordinary congressional criminal. He established a very low standard of behavior. Before Clinton's record setting clemency, he was serving a six and a half year federal sentence for wire fraud, bank fraud and lies to the Federal Election Commission. However, he is more notorious for serving five years for having sex with two 15 year old campaign volunteers. Guess the job assigned to him by the Reverend Jackson? You guessed it – youth counselor. Is this a great country, or what?
For all these goings on most of the media is complicit in these endeavors. Back to the Trevon Martin case, our liberal friends invented the term "White Latino" to describe Mr. Zimmerman. It was an obvious ploy to present a white killing a black. If you are half Latino, isn't that enough? Why don't we call our president who had a white mother a white African American?
For those insistent about playing the race card, a recent event at the Missouri State Fair is typical. It seems a rodeo clown, who has a dangerous job of protecting thrown riders from cantankerous bulls, donned an Obama mask while performing his clown actions.
The Washington Post and The New York Times went nuts. These reporters had obviously never been to a rodeo. To have a clown with an Obama mask was open and purposeful racism. Finally one Eastern paper did a little research and found that it was common practice for rodeo clowns to wear masks of politicians and famous people.
But never mind – the Missouri Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Senator McCaskill got involved and the clown and director of rodeo activities lost their jobs over this. To say this was a bit of overreaction is an understatement.
Recently Oprah Winfrey was shopping for a handbag in Switzerland. According to Oprah the clerk tried to talk her out of buying a $38,000 handbag. Reportedly she told Oprah this particular bag was too expensive. Even Oprah wasn't sure racism was a factor, but her interviews certainly implied as such. It is possible her casual dress and ample proportions misled the clerk to make her unfortunate comments.
With the Oprah incident and so many other situations, those characters who make a living keeping racism alive keep all of us from making progress in human relations.

> 4. Would servo controller like this be effective in doing what I need to do? http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1356No because it uses a USB input and the Arduino can control servos by itself without a "controller".
•Three control methods: USB, TTL (5V) serial, and internal scripting.
And considering the amount of power needed, what kind of power adapter would you recommend? I have been googling for suitable power adapter but there doesnt seem one spec at 18A or higher
Is there anyway to go about knowing how much current I would actually need for 18 of them?
