The U.S. Men's National Team has always been about young talent. Players like Landon Donovan, Clint Dempsey, and Michael Bradley all got their starts at a very young age. Current manger Jurgen Klinsmann maintains the philosophy that the youth are the future and is a firm believer in giving youngsters their shot. While these experiments don't always yield immediate results, with time, players adapt to the rigors of international soccer and can become legends.
With the U.S. currently doing well in the 2015 Gold Cup, we decided to take a look at the 10 rising U-23 American stars that will be doing great things for the national team in a few years time.
DeAndre Yedlin (22):
Yedlin has almost overnight become one of the hottest American youngsters in the game. He earned his first senior call up to the U.S. National Team in early 2014 and was on the final squad that went to Brazil for the 2014 World Cup, where he contributed in multiple games. Yedlin is currently contracted with Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League and has 19 caps with the USMNT to his name.
John Brooks (22):
Although the center back was born in Germany, his American serviceman father allowed him to play for the U.S. National Team instead of the country of his birth. He made his senior debut in 2013 and was named to the 2014 World Cup squad, where he scored the winning goal in his first substitute appearance in the opening game. He now has 14 caps and 2 goals to his name. At such a young age and having experience playing in Germany with Hertha BSC, Brooks has a bright future of the U.S.
Julian Green (20):
Green's showing in the 2014 World Cup announced to the entire world that he was a prospect worth paying attention to. After cutting ties with his German nationality for the U.S., the youngster was brought on in the 105th minute against Belgium in the round of 16 and scored with a brilliant volley making him the youngest player in U.S. history to score in a World Cup. His performances caught the eye of German giants Bayern Munich, where his is currently contracted. Green has 5 caps and 1 goal to his name for the national team.
Bobby Wood (22):
Bobby Wood was a largely unknown American national team player until very recently, but he has taken his chances well and announced himself in the best way possible on the international stage. Wood was called up for friendlies against the Netherlands and Germany recently and the Hawaiian scored the game winning goals in both fixtures. His lively performances for the national team have some saying he could be the future striker to take over the team. With 8 caps and 2 goals to his name, the future looks bright for the young American.
Emerson Hyndman (19):
Hyndman is on the younger side, but what he doesn't have in experience, he makes up for in technical ability. His U.S. U-20 national team manager, Tab Ramos, said that "Emerson has all the tools to be a 10-year national team player." His performances for English side Fulham have been outstanding, and Klinsmann rewarded that effort with a senior squad call up in late 2014. Emerson has done extremely well in the U-20 and U-23 age groups, so we are yet to see what he is fully capable of on a bigger stage. He currently has 1 caps to his name.
Jordan Morris (20):
Morris is one of the most talked about young prospects in the USMNT setup at the moment. In 2014, he was called up for a friendly against the Czech Republic making him the first college player to be called up to the squad since Chris Albright in 1999. Klinsmann saw something in the youngster that must have impressed him as he continued to feature for the Stars and Stripes leading up to the 2015 Gold Cup. Although he didn't make the final squad, Morris is definitely a talent for the future that could be lighting up 2018 World Cup qualifying very soon. He currently has 5 caps and 1 goal to his name.
Gyasi Zardes (23):
Zardes had a breakout season for his club, LA Galaxy, in 2014 and the striker was immediately given a call up for the USMNT in early 2015. Zardes has been doing very well in the 2015 Gold Cup providing assists and energy that have resulted in victories for the U.S. People have marveled at the forwards speed and determination to win. At the moment, Zardes has 11 caps and 1 goal for the national team. Expect great things from him if he can continue progressing as he has.
Gedion Zelalem (18):
While Zelalem has not suited up for the USMNT just yet, he is still a youngster to keep your eye on. The Arsenal midfielder just recently got his U.S. citizenship after choosing America over his place of birth, Germany. He's been making strong appearances for the U-20 national team as well as some substitute appearances for club side Arsenal in the Champions League. Zelalem has been progressing rapidly since being called out of the reserves to the first team, so it is only a matter of time until the playmaker makes his way into the senior national setup.
Ventura Alvarado (22):
Alvarado has become a U.S. National Team regular, usually paired with fellow center back John Brooks at the heart of the defense. While some have been critical of his play, the young 22 year old still has talent and some growing to do. Alvarado was first called up in for the USMNT in 2015, despite being eligible to play for Mexico due to his parents. The defender committed his long term future to the U.S. when he accepted a call up for the 2015 Gold Cup, where he has helped led the team to an undefeated record in group play. Alvarado has 7 appearances currently to his name.
Juan Agudelo (22):
Agudelo has shown brightly in the U.S. U-17 and U-20 setup in recent years. His exploits were not in vain either as he received a call up for a friendly against South Africa in 2010. He debuted as a substitute in that game and scored a brilliant volley making him the youngest player in U.S. National Team history to score a goal in a senior game. Agudelo's distinct style of dribbling and technical skill even got him a contract with English side Stoke City, although the contract was later terminated with mutual consent due to work permit issues. Agudelo has 20 caps and 3 goals to his name, making his the most capped and highest scoring player on our list.
That concludes our list of the 10 rising U-23 American players to keep your eye on. With 2018 World Cup qualifying just around the corner, a lot of these players will be called upon and they will be ready. See which current USMNT players made our 2015 Gold Cup roster to watch and get the latest news on squad changes.

setting expiry date check
Im a student on an internship with my sponser company and they have given me a project on shelf life management to complete. I know how to work SAP but im not too familiar with the WM functions so any help is much appreciated
I know i need to activate expiry date check in the material movement screen
I understand that I need a minimum self life in the material master
my question are
- how do i activate expiry date check for goods recipt only?
- I only want this check for cirtain goods. If i dont enter a minimum self life for some goods, will SAP only request an expirt date on the items that do have a minimum shelf life in the MM?
( also
3) will this data be available for use if we later decide to use picking stratagy H?
4) anything else i need to know? )
if you have a similar system in place id love to have a chat about it
Thanks In advance
Adam Evans
First and foremost, Shelf Life has to be activated for the Plant for which you are planning to carry this out.
This can be found under the path:
IMG > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory > Goods Receipt > Set Expiration Date Check
Choose Plant and flag the BBD/ProdDt indicator.
For your Queries,
1. Shelf life can be set to work only for the following Mvt Types:
Under Configuration
IMG > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory > Goods Receipt > Set Expiration Date Check
Choose Movement Type and place an option accordingly as shown below:
2. SLED will work only for materials, for which you maintain the SLED details in the Plant Data/Storage 1 view, like the Min. Rem. Shelf Life and Period Ind. for SLED.
3. Yes, if you're meaning to use FIFO/LIFO strategies this will be available.
4. Under the path:
IMG > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory > Define Attributes of System Messages
Choose Settings for system messages
Here ensure that the messages are set as "Error" (if that's what is expected)
|Shortfall of &3 days against remaining shelf life in current item (&1 &2)
|Shortfall of &2 &3 against SLED in current item (&1)

breaking forth from on high and across the abyss like a shooting star - infusing and challenging these dark clouds of the roaring chaos with its heavenly design.
Now as was shown above, man was placed on earth to finish its fourth phase, the phase of the perfection and completion of that heavenly design. And besides completion, there are parts and aspects of the whole work, like ourselves, which had been damaged or not come out right in the previous phase, in the third phase of formation, and which must be repaired and healed and restored.
All this can best be carried out by creating new seedstones for the matters concerned and putting them into the right spots: That is the purpose of alchemy here on earth at the present time.
And as the great work of the sons of God is producing Philosophers' Stones, and implanting them into al-khame or into the blackness of an abysmal chaos, and they in this manner bring to pass the transmutation of that blackness - al-khame or al-chemy - the transmutation of alchemy into planets and suns and into worlds of light, even without end:
That's why the manufacture of the Stone, the coveted goal of the alchemists has been referred to at last as - THE GREAT WORK.

From one sherry butt DMG Ref: 7507
Craigallachie Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Note;
On the nose it is spiced and raisiny - with an interesting richness akin to freshpeaches in a wood carry box.
Paletewise it is full and sweetly barley'd - peppery - with more (now macerated) soft dark fruit very much evident.
All this leads to a considerably drier finish with hints oftobacco, ginger and nutmeg.

Jeeves and Wooster
We've been thinking for some time about getting a second cat, but this Friday was finally the day! We traveled to the Nevada SPCA with two names in hand -- Wendy for a girl cat, and Bertie for a boy cat. (We've been watching "Jeeves and Wooster" lately, and Bertie Wooster seems like a good name for a cat who might be a little bit of an aristocratic fop).
And here's who we found! His name is Bertie now, but it was Midnight, and he had been at the SPCA for a year. He was sitting on a ledge when Drew came into the room, and bumped his shoulder with his head as Drew walked by. He purred and rubbed against Drew, but we noticed that whenever another cat approached us, he would retreat. But his eyes never left us. He followed us from room to room, and kept trying to get our attention, but was always scared off by some of the other more aggressive cats.
We thought his timidity was probably due to an overly long stay in a crowded cat sanctuary, and when we brought him home, we found this to be the case! He is the biggest cuddlebug, and spends all his time sitting next to us, purring, and rubbing all over us. He and Lyra have only met each other through the baby gate we were advised to get from our vet, but Lyra seems (after, of course, initial misgivings) excited to meet him. He's still getting used to his surroundings, so we are being patient about introducing them whisker to whisker. He's all black, with green eyes. He's the same age as Lyra (6 yrs old) which our vet advised us was a good idea.
I tried to take a picture of him eating, but he kept winding around my legs. The results are humorous, so I'll include them, along with a face to face picture of little Bertie.
Some of you may be asking yourselves a very specific question about him, and the answer is none. None more black.

01-April –2010
Another exploration with our parents before they head back home. Trying to find interesting places around Riyadh district to fill in our weekends. This week we decided to cover three places in a day. From Raghbah moving to Qassab then to Shagra.
Compliment to www.splendidarabia.com for the information of the Raghbah history.
"Raghbah is about 120km northwest from Riyadh. What's so special about Raghbah? This old town was said to be very fertile with abundant rainfall and was established in the year 1669. Raghbah has its historical significance in many perspectives. Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud's declaration to support "the call for returning to the basics of Islam" (Ad Da'wa As Salafia) of Sheikh Mohammad Ibn Abdul Wahab in 1744 has been considered a historic event in Najd and the Arabian Peninsula. The people of Raghbah joined Sheikh Mohammad Ibn Abdul Wahab's movement in 1750 which provoked the people of Sudair and Al Washm, who with Al Zufair marched to Raghbah in 1751 and besieged it. It was the first in the Mahmal region to join the Da'awa.
This town was one of the targets during the invasion of Nejd by Turks in the year 1817 under the command of Ibraheem Pasha. Castles of Raghbah were destroyed by Turks during the chaos.
While the word Raghbah means "to desire" or "willingness". It has other meanings as well based on the way it is pronounced. This aerial view of a portion of the old town of Raghbah is from Al Marqab Tower. "
We reach there early morning of about 9 am together with Faris and his family. It doesn't seem that anyone is taking effort of preserving this historical site.
Al-Hazem Quarters which was left behind
Imagine an architecture of 22 metres with 6 blocks of different size and made of mud!
Two can fit on top of the tower but one at a time to climb up
The first thing that attracts our eyes is the Al-Marqab Tower. This observation tower is one of the famous ruins of Najd in terms of historical magnitude and architectural greatness. Made of cylindrical stones, mud and bricks, this 22 meter high tower was built by the people of Raghbah with the expertise of Ibraheem Ibn Salama as recorded. Architecturally, the tower has 6 parts in different heights. It has small windows for lighting and ventilation.
As we have reach there, it is a must to climb up the tower. Hubby and our colleague Faris first went up the tower to survey. Yup..the writer of splendidarabia was correct. Only two people can fit on top at one time. We might loose our breath for a while if we're not fit like us :-). It has about xxx steps altogether. As I'm pregnant, I knew for sure i will loose my breath. So..maybe not this time for me. Later on the kids follow their dad's climbing up. No problem for the kids as usual….full of energy!
Later on we strolled down the sites observing their architecture. We're impressed with the remains. The architecture were magnificent. Many of the roof top still intact made from palm threes and covered with mud. Not sure whether it is the original ones or has been rebuild. Seeing the sites being neglected makes us feel sad as it has it's own uniqueness. We hope the Saudi's could do something in preserving the historical sites.
The ceiling made of date palm i guess
The wall with its unique decor
Wonder what this hole is for
As we have our parents together with us, we knew that we need to fill up our stomach first. My father especially can't have his stomach empty, We decided to move on to find a good spot to settle down for brunch. Going up and up, we find hard to get a good spot at least with one tree to sit under. Actually, it is a challenge to do that here.
We drove towards Qassab in finding a good spot for picnic. While trying to find a suitable spot, we might as well get to Qassab to try our luck experiencing salt making. There is no information on the net about Qassab. Hubby just got the coordinate from Googlemap.
Reaching Qassab we saw more trees for our break time. From the road we couldn't see any salt lake nearby but at far we can see boxes of a rectangle shape like a pond. Therefore, we decided to stop at a tree by the road which look like a good spot for picnic. The best part of driving around in Saudi is 'picnic is a must' when you off to desert. We hardly did this when we're in Malaysia actually.
As we settle down with our specialty 'nasi lemak' and 'meehoon', hubby went out by foot to search for his salt lake. As for the rest, we can't wait to feast our stomach with the delicious nasi lemak Diana made, currypuff by MIL and our very own meehoon.
Picnic as usual
About half an hour later, hubby brought us with the good news. Yes, it is the salt lake. We need to drive in further in to see the salt lake. An experience we can't wait. After finish with our meal and the kids enjoy their time playing while eating, we then continue to move on.
It is about 2 km further in from the spot we picnic. They have made the salt lake into about 500m x 1000m long each. There were about 10 lakes. The source of the salt water seems to be from down underground of a few lakes dug deeper in. Then they have a pump to pump the salt water into the boxes of lake with the piping made to reach the lakes for the salt to dry up. Some of the lakes were dry already and we can see small hill of the salt which they have dig to be bring to the factory.

Taking close view of the salt
Up, close and personal
Gift ceremony of Salt hunting behind 'The Hill of Salt' and the prize is… 'Salt Block'
While observing the salt lakes, suddenly we saw one car trying to approach us. Actually the salt lake is a private property. But as there was no gates or signboard saying not to enter, why not enter?? Else, we can't get the opportunity to get up, close and personal experience seeing and touching our day to day ingredient used in our food. When the car get closer and find us doesn't look like a threat, he just turn back.
It is very interesting to see the stages of the salt from water and turn harder or frozen. We touch the dried ones in the lakes and get a taste of it. Very, very salty. THere are those which were dug already and pile into small hills. Some block of the salts were even look like crystal. THe kids ask permission to bring home a few blocks as it look interesting but we do ot allowed them as it is a private property and we do not get permission from the owner.
Satisfied with the pictures taken, we decided to find the factory itself. Who knows we might get the chance to see the process of turning the 'dirty' salt into a 'clean' one like in our kitchen. Driving forward with our eyes trying to catch any glimpse of possible salt factory, we think we found one. We went offroad towards the factory to test our luck.
In front of Zad Salt Factory
One of the truck carrying the salt from the lake to be process at the factory
We able to find Zad Salt Refinery. We drive around to find anybody we can talk to whether we can enter the premise. Faris and Atok approach the entrance gate as we saw a guy sitting not far from the gate. Negotiating to persuade the guy allowing us to enter ends with failure. He insist us of getting in the factory though we offer to pay him some money if necessary to enter. He just offer us to go around the area to see the salt pond. I guess it is the rules of the factory. We respect him for being responsible for his job. So..we just went around the area, taking more pictures. Satisfied..we move on with our next location…Shagra.
SHAGRA or SHAQRAA
We couldn't find much information about Shagra as well. We just knew that there is a castle at the area from a local who post about his hometown over the net.
The name "Shagra" means "blonde" or "blondie" which is taken from "the blonde mountain" which is north of Shagra.
[It is 190 KMs northwest to Riyadh .. the road to it is not bad. It is double lane from Riyadh to the town of Hurimla (85 KMs from Riyadh) .. and it is still double lane highyway for a few kilometers .. then it is one lane until about 10 KMs of Shagra.
Shagra is an old town and I have no source to be specific about it's age but it is absolutely not less than 500 years.
One of the most famous historical landscapes is the old wall of Shagra which was surrounding the old town to protect it from invaders. The Turk tried to capture Shagra and the town fought back for three months then the Turk destroyed parts of the wall .. then it was impssible to fight .. so, people of Shgara made a truce with the Turk
One of the most famous historical sights that you must go to is "The Subaie Palace" .. it used to belong to the vice mayor of Shagra who is last name was "Subaie" or "Al-Subaie".]
– source from http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/ac013/1b9023/ and those are the only information we have for our search today.
At a roadside in Shagra town
We gamble our search hoping for success. We drove around town searching for Subaei Palace. We even stop by the side road when we saw policemen at a junction expecting they should be the expert of their area. Hovewer, we were hampered by them. Actually we already felt like giving up but Faris insist on trying to ask a few more people. Alhamdulillah, with his determination, we find our luck.
It was worth searching. The palace was under reconstruction. Maybe 30% complete. With it's combination of partly ruined, partly reconstruct, partly complete, the looks was magnificent. We can see the old architecture being rebuild. We look at one of the door being repaired. With its size, thickness of the wood,we can guess why their buildings can last for hundred of years. Being in the middle of a beautiful, unique historical sites is refreshing.
As Subai'i House probably Museum as well but closed during weekends.
Palace entrance
View from outside
Just in front of the entrance after reconstruction
Climbing the tower is challenging as usual
The original wall with it's decor is still intact
A view from rooftop, partly remodeled, partly still in its original form
Today was a very fulfilling day. We felt satisfied with what we experience in a day. Can't wait for more findings in this so called 'sahara'.

An excellent guide
This book is a thorough discussion of the essence of Buddhist mindfulness meditation, with much valuable advice on how to practise. It is a first-class manual for beginners, but it is also written for experienced practitioners who wish to deepen their knowledge. Although fully in accord with Buddhist tradition, the book is written for readers in the Western world who may not be interested in Buddhism as such, but wish to enjoy the benefits of mindfulness meditation. It is written in a clear, easy style. The chapters are very short, each dealing with a single topic. This makes the book ideal for someone who wishes to read a chapter, and then reflect, before continuing to the next chapter.

In exactly two weeks, E3 2009 will be opening its doors. Sure, for the last couple of years it has been something of a lackluster show, but this year promises to be better. The ESA has moved back to the LA Convention Center. Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo (along with plenty of other big names) have all announced that they will be putting on good show at the event. Oh yeah, and we're going to be there.
This is going to be the first year that OhGizmo will have a presence at the show, and my first year going as well. I've already got a bunch of meetings set up with various publishers and such, but I thought I'd give you guys an opportunity to tell me what you want to see. I probably won't be able to get around to see everything, but if there's something you want to see I'll do my best to get my hands on it.
Also, it's my first trip out to LA so I could use a few pointers on food, sights, etc. Who knows when I'll be going back, so I want to make the most of it.

As we mentioned last week, former South Miami resident Warren Papove is finally back in his native Canada after being detained at the Krome Detention Center for seven and a half months. Mr. Papove was kind enough to send us this message via email regarding his detention, the people that put him in Krome and his subsequent return to Canada...
Orlando Martinez de Castro must be proud. Fidel and Raul - not so much. my younger sister, Melissa had an easier time leaving Cuba she didn't get there until the 10th of February and was home free on the 18th. This was most fortunate for me because on the 19th when i was finally allowed to leave she was able to finish de Castro's job for him. After spending dozens of thousands of tax payers' dollars keeping me on ice for 7.5 months they were frugal enough to save $4oo for transportation for the last leg of my departure. I was left at the Vancouver airport at 8:oo pm b.c. time with 65 cents and a bag of clothes that bob had left for me in July, they were July clothes. They wouldn't allow him to bring anything like, for instance, a jacket for me. They even denied a final visitation. The information provided for 20 odd previous visits was suddenly insufficient.
So, after flying to la and then to Vancouver that was it. Mr Schoepp of the Canadian consulate had assured me that i would be sent to Edmonton ab. which is my original hometown. Ice's Nunez also assured me the same. iI guess that's so i wouldn't resist although i had willingly signed consent on Aug 9 after being denied access to a judge. I also signed again on Dec 17 after finally seeing a judge and asking him to order my removal. This was because transcripts of a previous court hearing' which would have secured a Miami release were denied to me. I don't know why anyone would resist release to anywhere after 7.5 months of unnecessary detention,but de Castro and his ice buddy Romon Bado have names to live up to.
Luckily Luis had recently located my sister for me and lucky for me that the real Castros aren't as rabid about illegally holding Canadians as the wanna-be de Castro. A lady at the Vancouver airport let me use her phone and my sister, having arrived home from Cuba late the night before, was awake and able to arrange a flight from Vancouver to Edmonton and pick me up from the airport 20 miles south of the city at 12:30 am local time with my other younger sister and a jacket it was 10 degrees f.
Note to the Canadian consulate--- lying about destinations might be a necessary precaution' i suppose. lying about a Canadian based assistance package might be necessary, i suppose, but i would suggest that including means for a phone call and a jacket be included for any Florida to Canada re;locations in the future, especially if they take place in February. After having spent close to 100 thousand dollars on an unnecessarily long detention it would be wrong to saddle the tax;payers with the additional cost of a jacket. Would any of them really opposed allowing bob to having brought me one as he tried to do? Hey Castro I'd also respectfully like to suggest that as a courtesy to other otherwise law abiding, stadium subsidizing Canadians you do the math first. When acting on a future Newman mc kane tip, remember it takes 9 months to act on it and 7.5 months to execute. please time this for summertime arrivals if jackets aren't included in the equation.
What a mess. At least Mr. Papove is now with his family, out of reach from the scumbags in South Miami that started this whole debacle. Good luck to you Mr. Papove!

Comments about Sauder Shoal Creek Panel TV Stand:
I have been using the Sauder Shoal Creek Panel TV Stand to hold my 42" LED flat screen and it has served its purpose. I was shocked that this stand is comprised of a lot of pieces, but it's easy to assemble. While putting the stand together I noticed that the cable slots were too small to accommodate all of my cables so I decided to forgo
installing the back panel. Because I didn't install the back panel it made the stand less sturdy. This wasn't an issue for my 15 pound TV, but my 40 pound plasma TV would cause the stand to sway when touched. The adjustable shelves provided me with enough space to load all of my electronics while maintaining organization for a clean look. The drawers are roomy and open/close smoothly, but the screws that hold the knobs in place constantly work themselves out. I find myself tightening the knobs at
least once a week. Despite its questionable stability I would recommend the Sauder Shoal Creek Panel TV Stand for light weight Televisions.
Comments about Sauder Shoal Creek Panel TV Stand:
I am a fan of the affordability and style of Sauder. We are the budget-furniture types and this is good furniture for the price. I also like the other pieces that are available in this particular "Shoal Creek" collection. Like all Sauder and other put-it-together-yourself pieces, this does take some time and effort to put together. The project was not as time consuming as other pieces we have put together though. Sauder does its best to clearly convey how to put the piece together. The quality is pretty good and I like the contemporary, stylish look to the TV Stand. It looks good; it has held up well, too. I like that this piece, in the future, could be useful for other things if we change around our living room. I can see it being used for craft storage or in a secondary television space. I love this espresso color and have found that it remains essentially the same in their various other pieces labeled as this shade. The legs are sturdy. The top of the television stand looks good. We are happy with the piece.
Comments about Sauder Shoal Creek Panel TV Stand:
I have had this TV stand for 3 years and two moves and I must say I am quite impressed by how well it has held up considering I have had past negative experiences with Sauder brand products and their durability. However, this little compact tv stand has withstood the test of time and transporting.
I love the deep brown color of this stand as it fits perfect with most any color scheme. We had originally bought it when our living room was furnished with earth tone colors and it looked wonderful then. We then bought a whole new retro living room set with deep reds and blacks amongst other deep colors and because the Sauder Shoal Creek TV Panel Stand is such a dark brown finish it appeared black when put in with the deep colored retro furnishings.
My other favorite quality about this TV stand is its compact yet accommodating size. I say this because it's compact in all the right places and measurements. The top is the perfect size for our 32 inch flat screen paneled TV and the shelves and drawers are the perfect sizes for our cable box, DVD player, gaming console and then plenty of space for our DVD and game collections along with the (what I like to call) odds and ends drawer. If and when this stand breaks down or loses it's luster, I will be replacing it with the exact same stand.

Nope, this isn't Julian's new car. It might park under his house, but it's not his. Instead, it belongs - name on the loan papers and all - to Georgina, his fiancé. And why has a 161.5cm, 50kg woman ended up acquiring a 10-year-old big-arse Lexus?
It certainly didn't start off that way....
With our move to Queensland, we'd needed to quickly acquire a new car. And that had been the auto '89 Saab 900 Turbo 5-door (quaintly named by Saab the 'Combi'). A car with some very strong virtues - wonderful stability, sure-footed handling with bags of grip and excellent passing acceleration - it was also one with its fair share of negatives - terrible NVH, fuel consumption that with the daily Gold Coast Hinterland climb to the clouds struggled to better 12 litres/100km, and absolutely woeful off-the-line performance. In fact, in the latter regard the Saab felt almost of the '70's school of turbo design, where there was nothing, nothing, nothing - then whoomph!, turbo boost arrived.
Though, to be honest, the Saab will always hold a special place in our memories - its simply enormous rear space, the styling incorporating a tiny wheelbase that reflected the numerous nose- and tail-jobs performed on the original 99 model, and its idiosyncratic approach to everything from seating position to ignition key location (between the front seats, if you don't know).
But between us we'd now got the Car Crazies - looking through the Saturday papers, browsing the car classifieds on AutoWeb and Drive and Carpoint, slowing down whenever we were passing a used car yard... The Saab was now being evaluated more on its trade-in value (low) than on the merits of its body stiffness and electric seat warmers. The automotive options were both eclectic and eccentric. Dep Ed Michael Knowling and I incessantly discuss potential car buys; we can honestly say that there is zero bias in any direction, and the talk as easily turns to a low-kay AU Falcon as it does to a pristine 6.3 litre Mercedes 300 SEL to a Japanese-import Mira Turbo 4WD. And perhaps that bug has infected Georgina, for literally any brand and any model was up for discussion.
But still - in the end - probably only a dozen cars were actively considered.
Firstly, we thought of new cars. Or, specifically, of a single new car. My AutoSpeed review ("New Car Test - The Mercedes A160 Classic") of the Mercedes A160 was variably positive and doubtful, but of one aspect we were sure: the utility of the body design is simply fantastic. And you can also add that the safety of the small car is beyond question.
And those were two aspects always under consideration - it had to be a car that was practical (so no two-seaters and no tiny cars) and safe. In the five months since we've moved to Mount Tamborine we have seen no less than four major accidents on the narrow, winding and challenging piece of bitumen that leads to our elevated town. A car that was both passively safe (ie you're ploughing through the scenery) and actively safe (you're more likely still to be on the road) was an important consideration. So what of the eccentrically shaped Merc?
An A160 was never in the ballpark - but the 23 per cent more powerful A190? With a claimed 0-100 of 8.8 seconds and a price of $41,230, it was worthy of consideration. Pardon? No, we don't have that sorta money lying around, but DaimlerChrysler offers a guaranteed buyback and with a lease able to be organised, it was an option. All only a vague thought - but then we happened to be passing a Mercedes dealer, had an hour or so spare, and so....
Gotta say that the dealer - Centenary Classic of Brisbane - was a delight. I am obviously getting very old - and or we happened to be looking prosperous that day - because the staff member was both helpful and courteous. And if he didn't know as much about the A-class range as I thought he should, he at least was reluctant to bluster his way through, simply suggesting that their staff back at the dealership would be able to answer my specifics. And the car? Well, too slow, basically - I think to do the advertised times you'd have to start off on the top of a tall hill.... And Georgina thought the quality of interior plastic substandard for a car of these dollars. But her greatest complaint was that she'd be paying off $918 each month for 3 years - and at the end of that time, she wouldn't even own the car....
Then it was time to head off and look at a secondhand Golf VR6.
Very secondhand, as it turned out.
This was one car also on Michael Knowling's shortlist - he'd driven it and delighted in the potent 128kW 2.8-litre V6. The hatchback Golf weighs only 1180kg, and with 235Nm to push it along, it is quick and refined. And it's got twin airbags, an electronic diff lock and ABS. But the high-kay one that we were looking at was stickered at $16,500 - when most are in the mid-twenties - and it simply felt tired. At the minimum I could see new dampers and bushes, tyres and perhaps a full engine service. At the maximum - brakes, gearbox and clutch. But there was no doubting that the engine was sweet and strong, the package practical and the overall car one that simply couldn't be dismissed.
But this particular example? Nope.
Then, out one afternoon on the Gold Coast, I picked up the local paper. I was musing my way down the car classifieds when I spotted a Lexus LS400. It'd only been a few weeks before when Michael and I were in Sydney and he'd got me to pull over on Parramatta Road - "Wonder what a twenty five grand Lexus is like?" he'd asked, having spotted a forlorn car yard occupant out of the side window. In the metal it had looked damn' good; insufficient time had precluded a drive.
Now here in the Gold Coast Bulletin there were no less than three of the cars, including one listed as being in "pristine condition" - and only a flat $20,000! We did a few other tasks, then wandered over to the yard. But even the early evening darkness couldn't disguise the cracked paint on the bumpers, the scrape down one side, the broken aerial. Maybe these guys don't use the Shorter Oxford....their definitions were certainly different to ours! The distance the poor battered car had wearied through wasn't apparent; too many kays and not enough loving care, anyway...
The other advertised LS400s couldn't be found or were private sales - and that precluded that. We didn't want to go through the hassle of selling the Saab privately, so we were looking to a dealer purchase. Anyway, as Georgina constantly reminded me, a Lexus LS400 "wasn't her image". I wasn't quite sure what actually was her image, but thought it wise to remain silent at this point!
Time passed; I spent some of it looking up prices and specs on Peugeot 306 Gti6's (too expensive); late model Honda Accord V6's (too slow - oh why oh why isn't the Odyssey's fabulous 3.5-litre V-TEC engine available in the Accord?); and ICQ brainstorming with AutoSpeed reader 'Q'. A man of eclectic - albeit Euro-centric tastes - Q's nominations included the 1989 BMW 325iS ("too old-fashioned," she said), Mercedes 190 Cossie ("God, it's so old that it's leaded, I said) and Musso V8 things - which were so beneath our contempt that we said nothing at all...
Late at night we peered through the windows of a car-yarded mid-Nineties BMW 530i V8 (cheap but very slow); a late-Eighties Mercedes 300E (apparently a wonderful car but really showing its age now in its equipment and performance); even a VQ Statesman V8 got a look-in. The Peugeot 206 GTi was dismissed ("too small"), and the mighty Impreza WRX sighed over. (We'd have loved a Rex wagon, but getting insurance with Georgina as the primary driver would have cost literally 25 per cent of the value of the car per annum... she's never had comprehensive insurance before...)
Then we found another Lexus LS400.
To differentiate it from the others we called it "Mr Shit Brown" - I am not sure what Lexus call that particular paint colour.... Later, it was more politely truncated to "Mister Ess Bee". Mr SB could be found in the used car yard of a Gold Coast Mazda Dealer. We peered in Mr SB's windows late at night - yeah, I don't know why most of our caryard forays were in the dark, either - and from what we could see, it was in very good condition. But - yeee-owie - 208,000 kays... And no sunroof.
The Saab had a sunroof, my Audi has a sunroof - it was apparently a must-have. I admired the fact that someone had kept the same-as-original Z-rated tyres shod on the old slab-sided beast, while Georgina peered in at the full leather trim. Stickered at $26K, it was what you'd pay for a good condition Golf VR6... but we'd conveniently forgotten that.
Surely a drive wouldn't hurt?
Now, I have a confession to make. At around the time of which I am speaking, I had in my clutches for a week the absolutely wonderful 4.2-litre 250kW Audi S6 V8 press car. And I just loved that instantaneous V8 grunt. I've owned 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cylinder cars - but never a V8. And, it must be said - along with the awesome Commodore Gen III V8 - the S6 had really inspired me to own (or at least drive frequently!) a straining-at-the-leash V8. And this here Lexus had got a 190kW, 4-litre, all-alloy, 32-valve V8 under than bland exterior.... Hmmm, wonder what it drives like?
It drove incredibly well. Utterly smooth, quiet, powerful and responsive - and unfortunately, slow in steering and with a slightly unresponsive auto trans. But - hell! - now I know what all those motoring writers were on about a decade ago.... It may be 50 per cent bigger than we - er, Georgina - needs, but so what? This was something very, very good....
Georgina didn't have a turn behind the wheel; she was content (at this stage!) to accept my opinion. And I was very, very positive.
We went away, very thoughtful. I did plenty of research - much of it contained in last week's (" The Lexus LS400") article - and considered the up- and down-sides.
The booming Japanese wrecker import market in Australia means that a LS400 engine and transmission can be purchased for relative chickenfeed - scratch one enormous potential cost if something went wrong. It appears that all Soarer and much Supra stuff fits the LS400 - and that opens up brake upgrades and bigger wheels as quite cheap acquisitions. Although it's a big car - but smaller than a current Commodore wagon - its fuel consumption looked on paper as if it could rival the Saab turbo. But then it's totally lacking in the styling grace of (say) a contemporary BMW 7-series, and this particular one had an awful lot of kays on it....
This was getting interesting.

UPDATE (12/06/16) Windy City Pie no longer delivers your deep-dish dream to your car in that SoDo parking lot, they've moved into Batch 206 Distillery and a bigger kitchen in Seattle's Interbay. Our recommendation: Keep with the original plan. Order ahead. NEW ADDRESS: 1417 Elliott Ave W, Seattle, WA 98119
A deal is going down in a SoDo neighborhood parking lot. Nothing to worry about. It's just Dave Lichterman handing off his much-talked-about pizza to eager customers.
The Chicago native's deep dish pizza company, Windy City Pie, opened less than a year ago. But it's already become the darling of foodies in search of Seattle's tastiest pan pizza.
Lichterman has been working on the recipe for the past decade, but was only able to pursue his dream full time after leaving a job in tech.
His modest kitchen space and small staff leave no room for on-site sales or an extensive delivery operation, so Lichterman exchanges texts with customers then serves up the pizza in a nearby parking lot.
If you're interested in trying a Windy City Pie, be sure to order ahead. Even a day or more in advance is recommended. It's well worth the wait.

Window Detailing
LITTLE details make a difference in the designing and décor of a room. Merely putting up a good fabric to dress up your window is not enough. Rather add a style statement to your interior designing and decor by dressing up the curtains with strong, well-designed curtain rods. A popular choice these days is steel curtain rods.
To get the best out of curtain rods, they should be chosen bearing in mind certain design points and considerations.
Size and window styling:
It might sound simple and easy to dress up a window but there are a few technical points that should be taken care of. Choose the window rod size according to your window size and window styling.
General designing and room décor:
Let the curtain rods mix well with the overall decors of the space. This will give a good picture that blends with the style of the room, whether it is contemporary or classic.
Extra length can help highlight decorative iron curtain rods. Making them several inches wider than the window is a way to show off the rods. They should be wide enough that the curtains can be pulled back from the window and still show off the iron finials on the rod.
In terms of height, placing the iron rod several inches above the top of the window not only makes the window look larger, but also highlights the decorative rod. The rod can be placed anywhere from a few inches above the window to a foot or more depending on the ceiling height. Enough space between the rod and the ceiling should be allowed for the curtain to move without brushing the ceiling.
Fabric weight:
The curtain rod should be strong enough to hold up your curtain fabric material weight for years. Styling is just not the criteria to be taken care of. It should also be durable to give a lasting look.
Personal choices:
In searching the market for the type of rod that you desire, your budget should be factored into what you can get to give a brilliant look to your window.

Christmas Decorations
October 12, 2012
I'm holding a Christmas Decoration class on the 10th November and one of the things we will be making is this wooden block "Noel". Special thanks to my Dad and son-in-law Sean for cutting the blocks for me.
I think this would look sensational on your side-board or even in your entry way at Christmastime. Space is limited for this class so if you would like to make one of these, then please reserve your place early. Check out the Classes and Workshops page for more details on this and other classes.
Bye for now, Kris.

How To properly clean and remove Fingerprints from your Smartphone and Tablet Displays
Any smartphone or tablet computer owner understands the problem of cleanup away fingerprints and smudges. While only wiping it down along with your top functions to a degree, it is not the ideal tool for your job. Below is a listing of items which should help eliminate fingerprints and wash away any nasty germs…
Whether you're only searching for a way to quickly wipe away fingerprints through the day or whether you wish to give your device a heavy cleansing, there are lots of great inexpensive alternatives.
Below you'll get all of our choices for the best smartphone and tablet computer display cleaning supplies. We also have included several strategies on how to not take care of your apparatus at the base of the post.
Microfiber Cloths
If you are just looking for a fast and affordable method to wash out fingerprints and smudges, pick up a microfiber cloth. When these fabrics are not the thickest and many premium accessible, they're small enough to be thrown into a back pack, pocket, or purse. Additionally, in case it gets dirty or damaged, you can swap it out for a different cloth which comes from the bundle.
Screen Cleaner Kit with Microfiber Cloth and Solution
If a very simple microfiber fabric is not getting the work done by itself, you may have to employ some cleaning liquid. The liquid itself may be sprayed on the cloth before use to help remove oils and debris out of a screen.
As we address in the bottom of the article, it is not suggested to use only any kind of household cleaning alternative.
OXO Good Grips Electronics Cleaning Brush
Though I have only ever used microfiber fabrics to wash my device, a cleaning brush can works wonders. Adding soft bristles on one end of this tool along with a silicone wiper on the flip side, this instrument is ideal for wiping off fingerprints and dust in addition to getting into the nooks and crannies to eliminate particulates.
Phone Soap
Last, we've got the PhoneSoap sanitizer and telephone charger. This operates by using ultraviolet light to destroy germs and germs living and developing on the surface of the smartphone. The manufacturer claims that it can reliably eliminate 99.9 percent of all germs on a smartphone in only five minutes. If you would like to leave your smartphone at the container all night, then there's an opening to conduct a USB cable to the box to control your device.
Things Not to Use
On most modern tablets and smartphone, companies put an oleophobic coating onto the glass to help repel fingerprints along with other oils. Over the duration of this unit, this coating will wear out on its own, but a few kinds of household cleansers strip it off.
For the best practices, it is not suggested that you wash any digital screen with demanding things like paper towels in addition to alcohol-based cleaners. The rough substance found in paper towels and other substances are abrasive and can result in micro-scratches that could worsen over time. Alcohol-based cleaners must also be avoided since they may get rid of any oleophobic coating in addition to eat away at paints and plastics.
Are there any other goods or methods which you use to maintain your apparatus free of dirt and fingerprints?

Scott Lobdell is best known for his comics work on titles including Generation X and Red Hood and the Outlaws. He's made a transition into Hollywood with last year's Happy Death Day, which currently has a 71% at Rotten Tomatoes. This is his first big foray into Hollywood, if you don't count his story credit for the 2005 Tommy Lee Jones flick Man of the House.
Expect more films from Lobdell in the future as the writer has signed with Abrams Artists Agency and Zero Gravity Management for film, television and new media, which presumably covers podcasts and neural implants. Studios want more films like Happy Death Day, which grossed more than $122 million last year against a $4.8 million budget.

Kill the Messengers
Stephen Harper's Assault on your Right to KnowBook - 2015
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
I am to read this book now, and I think it was useful in Justin winning. As for the drastic anti-constitutional and anti-democratic changes that Harper brought on in his last 2 yrs of rule, I think all of it is not exclusively his own personal agenda - it's certainly in the Conservative agenda, and Harper accelerated it, started its radical part a bit too early for the times. I would not trust the Conservatives since Harper, who has shown us their teeth. Harper said: "our prayers have been answered" (when winning his majority). They pray for a Dictatorship here and and they certainly want to re-write the Constitution to remove human rights in general. I repeat: I think all this is part of the Conservative agenda, no matter what they say now that they are re-grouping for a new comeback. But the main problem I see is that One Third of Canada's population voted for Harper even after he did his anti-Constitutional moves, and he even appealed at the Supreme Court against our Constitutional rights. ONE THIRD of our population seems to be anti-democratic, they always vote for the Conservatives, that's our MAIN PROBLEM. But "all roads lead to Rome" and so the other problem we have is over- population and various cultural conflicts, which will lead to social crisis and eventually, to Dictatorship. And our ultimate problem is Human Nature, which is like a lone wild animal (my respects to the "human" few) - they defend territory madly, and unless Human Nature is changed (genetically) there never will be peace on earth. What about the solution? Read Arthur Koestler's book "The Ghost In The Machine" which he wrote on behalf of the United Nation's "Department Of Behavioral Control" (1967), and read "Agenda 21" of the United Nations. By the next century the world's pop will be largely reduced, and relocated into reserved areas, which they will not be allowed to leave. And city life will be finished, and the present cities will be given back to Nature. Read also Dr. John Coleman's book "The Conspirators' Hierarchy" (1997) for these plans of the rather near future. There will be no individual rights, no private property, no family units and no nation states. The Great Disruption will come in the 21th Century and a new Civilization and a genetically improved, better human race is to replace us, the present aggressive wild animals we are. For the time being it's a manipulated Democracy. Whatever you vote, the planned future will come - it must come, else we destroy the Earth and ourselves. In the 1967 "Expo" World Fair in Montreal there was a movie in the Czech Pavilion - the public was allowed to vote at some points of a certain Mr. Novak's adventures, i.e. how the story should continue. No matter how the public voted, the final outcome was the same. This is our Democracy too. Just the Conservative agenda is too early and not nice, that's all.
There is an election under way. This is a good time to read this book.
The author raises many serious concerns about the Harper approach to government. We need to see if any other contenders will commit to undoing the changes Harper has wrought.
This is an important book, I just wish that a better writer had written it, or a stronger editor had gone over it. The subject matter jumps about. There is a lack of organization and structure to the presentation that gets annoying. Readers should persist and struggle through through those problems.
The tactics Harper has been using to silence the opposition from speaking or voting sounds so much like what Vladimir Putin does in Russia (minus the assassinations, of course). This is a must read.
Wow, scary to learn what the people in power manage to pull off when no one is watching. Definitely a good thing to read before the next election.

As an interior designer by trade, my home and the ambiance I create within it, are sacred. I have spent all my years as a mother and wife striving to make our homes places of sanctuary, hope, and brightness. As a mother of 4 active and creative children, and during various times of financial uncertainties, that goal often felt extremely lofty. I have, however, been consistently blessed (since 1984 at least) the ability to creatively renew spaces thanks to my go-to home-renew, T.J. Maxx and Home Goods.
It is no coincidence that I have chosen to launch this blog now, at the onset of another beautiful Salt Lake City spring, because fresh starts are what this season is all about. Spring is renewal. Renewal of nature. Renewal of hope. Renewal of really anything you want to bring new life to. This spring, for me, is about taking what I create and sharing it in a far different way than I ever have before.
So here is your official introduction to me, your resident MaxxAddict. Within this blog, I will share glimpses into my home (and potentially the homes of others) of the renewal I have been able to create. Similarly to when it comes to renewing our personal lives, we don't need to get rid of everything and start completely new. We can (and should) keep the best parts of ourselves and homes and simply add what we can to make them better. My hope is that as you follow MaxxAddict, you will find new ways to make your life, homes, relationships, and attitudes just a little bit brighter!
MaxxAddict Interior Design Bio

Autism Rocks Founder Sanjay Shah
Ever wondered who founded Autism Rocks and why? Sanjay Shah founded Autism Rocks in the year 2011 after his son was found to be suffering autism. His youngest suffered a condition whereby he could not hold up his food. After taking the boy to a hospital is when Shah and his wife found out that their son was suffering from autism. Shah, therefore, thought of coming up with an organization that would work to create awareness of autism and at the same time raising funds to support those kids who would not be as economically privileged as his son Nikhil.
Shah is a renowned entrepreneur in the UK's economy. He owns Solo Capital and other range of financial brokerage companies within London. He has been working as an employee for many financial investment companies before starting his company in the year 2009. Solo Capital was the first ever of his companies. It was the economic slump of 2009 that made Shah redundant and had less motivation to look for another job, considered starting his company.
Shah's parent immigrated into the United Kingdom in the 1960s to settle in London. Sanjay Shah was born in London and went to one of the best medical colleges in the city. He deserted the medical profession to work in the financial investment industry. His first employer was a bank by name Meryl Lynch. He worked another range of companies and banks until 2009.
Autism Rocks works by staging shows in different cities with the purpose of raising awareness and collecting money for use in autism research activities. The money collected is also used in helping the autism patients who might t have the financial ability to acquire the necessary medical services.
Sanjay Shah aims at increasing the organization's funds by welcoming other billionaires to take part in the donation. He is also geared towards tripling the money collected through the shows.
