Student or Learner
Hello, everyone!
I have a question about the tense. Could you take a look at the below?
A: I sure I will quit smoking.
B: You ___________ that millions of times before.
(a) say (b) said (c) have said (d) had said
The answer sheet pointed at (c) have said. But I doubt if (b) said is really impossbible here. Is 'have said' is better here than said or is 'said' impossible here?
Many thanks in advance!

Thank you very much.^^
The first statement has a word missing. It should be "I am sure I will quit smoking".
Remember - if you don't use correct capitalisation, punctuation and spacing, anything you write will be incorrect.

Full name Steve Tew
Born date unknown
Major teams New Zealand
Other Administrator
Steve Tew took over as chief executive of the New Zealand Rugby Union in January 2008. His predecessor, Chris Moller, had paid the price for the All Blacks underwhelming 2007 World Cup campaign.
Tew was the CEO of Canterbury Rugby Union when the Super 12 was a launched in 1996, and was instrumental in turning their fledgling Crusaders franchise from also-rans into champions.
The first Super 12 campaign saw the Crusaders finish last, with only a single All Black in their squad. Due to Tew's forward thinking, the club expanded its search for players to beyond their geographical limits and by 2002, 14 Crusaders were in the New Zealand side to face Ireland and the Crusaders had become a dominant force in the Super 12.
Tew also presided over the recent rehiring of Graham Henry and Steve Hansen, who survived the cull following the World Cup. The NZRU has faced some criticism over letting former Crusaders coach Robbie Deans take the reins of the Australian national team, given the precedent of failing World Cup coaches stepping aside.
Tew has inherited an organisation whose structure and future have come under scrutiny from the media in recent times, not least because of the apparent exodus of All Black talent to the northern hemisphere.
Alongside the other SANZAR unions, Tew has pushed through the expansion of the Super 14 playoffs to six teams with the aim of securing a more competitive, and therefore more attractive, competition.

Gizmodo Gallery visitors got a great sneak peek at Tokyoflash's new watch, the Kisai Tenmetsu, which presents time using tri-coloured LEDs in Tokyoflash's per usual esoteric fashion. If that floated your boat, it's available now on the company's website.
Kind of like a cross between the Tokyoflash Fire and Denshoku, each of the three colors—red, amber and green—represents a unit of time and the hours, minutes, month and day flash by in sequence. Red LEDs are 15 units, amber LEDs indicate five units, and green LEDs equal one unit. [Tokyoflash]

"Flight of the Mind: A Painter's Journey through Paralysis" depicts the life and work of Marcus C. Thomas, an accomplished artist who discovered the joy of painting after surviving a snow skiing accident that rendered him paralyzed from the shoulders down. Through art, Marcus found new and beautiful expression for his love of nature and avid imagination.
The coffee-table book treats the reader to 200 full-color images of Marcus' paintings, spanning twenty-five years. Sampling artwork and sketches from each stage of his career, the book offers insight into the evoloution of an artist's technique and message. We see how, from the first watercolor depictions of wildlife to his recent magical realism oil narratives, Marcus embarks on a journey that continues today, crossing thresholds, delving into new mediums, exploring new ways of seeing and new ways of sharing a creative vision.
Accompanying the artwork, the book also tells the story of Marcus' life and explores how the the themes of flight, adventure and the natural world have remained constants since his childhood. Another constant is the love of his wife, Anne, who, as companion, co-conspirator and caretaker, makes Marcus's art possible. The narrative biography gives a compelling glimpse into how Anne & Marcus have established daily rituals that sustain their creative journey.

HOME security is a priority for many home owners today and advances in technology are making doing your utmost to protect your belongings easier and more affordable.
One such piece of tech is the Ezviz C3A surveillance camera, which works as a standalone device alongside the free app, or can work with one of the Ezviz hubs, that allow other cameras and home-security equipment to be bolted on to provide a home security network.
What makes the C3A easy and affordable is that it's battery powered, so no pricey wired installation by a qualified electrician is necessary. A screw in the wall, fencepost or even a tree, perhaps, is all that is needed, and the C3A is good to go.
It can of course be used inside the home, but then you're wasting its IP65 rated weatherproof housing capability and wireless portability and Ezviz has its own range of interior cameras anyway.
Connecting to your wifi is straightfoward, the free Android or ios app having a reader facility that easily gets your camera connected in minutes by scanning the QR code on the camera or instruction manual.
With its HD 1080p wide-angle lens, the C3A has a 126° view and even in the dark delivers a crisp picture from up to 7.5m away thanks to the built-in night vision. The device also allows normal and UHD recording, though, in my opinion, the former may not be quite clear enough depending on your siting of the camera, and the latter is possibly over-egging the pudding and taking up unnecessary extra storage space.
The camera also works as a two-way radio, which means you can have a conversation from anywhere with anyone when you are using the application on your mobile device, telling would-be intruders to scram or even the window cleaner that he's missed a bit.
A nice little feature I liked is, in the event of an undesirable person on your property, you get the notification, you see the intruder - a quick press of a button takes his or her picture.
At the time of writing the camera has only just been installed so battery length is as yet untested, but reports suggest the camera can last for three months before a recharge is necessary. This is also helped by the camera having a sleep mode to preserve battery life.
Charging is done by gently easing the device, which contains a strong magnet, from its multidirection-enabling half-sphere mount and plugging into the included wall socket via a mini-usb cable.
The camera supports a micro sd card up to 128gb for recording footage, or this can be done via the Cloud where a subscription is needed.
The C3A is designed to monitor in all conditions and light levels, switching between day and night modes automatically. It is equipped to alert homeowners of any activity thanks to its Smart Human Technology which notifies, using PIR technology, any people approaching the property and can decipher whether motion is derived from a pet or human movement, when a notification would be made, but not when there are more subtle activities such as insects, the curtain moving or change of light. The C3A is also compatible with voice assistants such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
In summary, a nice piece of kit to allow you more piece of mind for a respectable price.

Mplus Discussion
Latent Variable Mixture Modeling
Michael J. Zyphur
posted on Friday, May 20, 2005 - 1:38 pm
Hi Linda & Bengt,
I have foster children nested within case-workers. I want to examine outcome variables of legnth of care (continuous) and home placement (dichotomous), predicted by case-worker race. Case workers are either white, black, or hispanic. Do you think it's better to model these races (at level 2) as either 3 dichotomous variables, a single categorical variable, or use a multigroup analysis (none of my hypotheses involve mediation)? If multigroup, how would do I tell Mplus to hold variable means constant across groups so that I may do chi-square difference tests?
Thanks for your input!
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Friday, May 20, 2005 - 5:11 pm
If case-worker race is a covariate, then you would need to create two dummy variables to represent the three races. Covariates can be binary or continuous not nominal.
If you have enough observations to do multiple group analysis, see Chapter 13 for a description of the Mplus defaults for multiple group analysis and examples of specifying equalities in multiple group analsyis.
Michael J. Zyphur
posted on Friday, May 20, 2005 - 10:12 pm
Hi Linda,
I've read chapter 13 a few times and I only ask about specifying equalities because my model would be both multilevel and multigroup. So, when I say TYPE = MEANSTRUCTURE, should I add MULTILEVEL RANDOM.
This problem relates to a much larger issue (at least for me). I love your program, but I find your manual somewhat confusing. It seems to me that instead of providing an underlying logic which would allow users to infer the program's functioning and language, you have opted to try and give a plethora of modeling options with code provided in each case. While this is really fantastic for getting started, I am having difficulty progressing beyond an initial learning stage and can't intuit how to create new and dynamic models, such as a multilevel random coefficient multigroup model (this is exactly the opposite case of LISREL, where getting started is a bear, but movement beyond this stage is pretty straight forward). Is there anything you suggest to help me understand Mplus with greater depth?
Thank you for your time.
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Saturday, May 21, 2005 - 6:43 am
I suggest starting with a simple model such as one you are familiar with in LISREL and translating it into the Mplus language. Then move to more complicated models until you feel you master the language. Mplus can estimate so many more type of models than LISREL that it is difficult to go into detail about each one. Specifying equalities is the same throughout the program. If you send an input to
and state clearly which parameters you want equal, I will be happy to tell you how to do this. The fact that your model is multilevel and multiple group does not change how equalities are specified. If you use RANDOM also, I think you need to use the KNOWNCLASS option for multiple group.

hi linda,
i want to analyze data using stata 7.0, the data will be captured from the construction workers about the frequency and severity of accidents in their work place, what type of data will i be collecting, numerical or categorical, which tests will i use to test the hypotheses?
posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2005 - 5:54 pm
Well, why not handle Stata questions too in Mplus Discussion ... If frequency is collected as counts you could treat the outcome as Poisson or zero-inflated Poisson distributed. Or, if you find it sufficient to work with frequency ranges such as 0, 1 or 2, 3-5, more than 5, then you could treat the outcome as categorical (ordered polytomous). Severity could be either continuous or categorical (ordered polytomous). I assume you have some sort of covariate such as age or number of years on the job and want to regress these outcomes on the covariate, in which case testing if the regression slope is zero is straightforward. A joint analysis of frequency and severity as outcomes is a little more complex given their interrelatedness, but that doesn't sound necessary. All this said without knowing what you research questions are. And by the way, these analyses can be handled in Mplus.

"You are encouraged not to implement all the business logic in the web application (i.e. your script), instead do it in the database schema using views, triggers or rules. If the system evolves, new ports will be intended to open to the database, and you have to re-implement the logic in each separate database client."
This doesn't make sense to me. I might be misreading it, but I can't see how this adds to security. It sounds like implementing business logic in the database just increases the amount of work you have to do if you ever want to upgrade or change your SQL database.

Ok, so I bought the book "Beginning Game Programming" by J. S. Harbour which includes Direct X. And I think I follow it really well (well the 2D the 3d seems harder and not very indepth so I will look at 2D games for the moment). But the book said it was written mostly in C and I am a C++ guy but it didn't seem to heavily reliant on C so I bought it. I am just trying to come to terms with where it is written in C:
Mr Harbour uses typedef structs in the book for things like sprites, but is it common practice to use classes with C++ or doesn't it matter?
For getting the file name of the image file he used sprintf() with a variable that incremented to alter the file name (sorry that is pretty vague butI don't have the book with me). What is the C++ equiv. to this?
Also is things like d3dev->BeginScene() a correct sysntax in C++ and all other calls like it.
P.S Again sorry if all this is really vague.

- With a sharp knife, cut a small hole at one end of each carrot; insert a parsley sprig for carrot top. Place under bunny's nose. For tail, spray a small mound of whipped cream at the wide end of each pear.

My Mom made similar bunnies for us in the 50's! The only difference was she used cottage cheese for the tail and a carrot strip for the baby carrot. Oh...and on iceberg lettuce. That's the only lettuce we knew. :-)

I've been looking for an Easter treat my daughter could make on her own, this is great.. And it's also good for you!

I think that the bunny looks more like an oversize mouse - but I guess that's probably just me. Cute anyhow!
Apr 11, 2009
I made the bunny salad last night. They turned out so CUTE! I put a scoop of cottage cheese on top of the lettuce and under the pear. I think the whipped cream tail turned out cute, as did the eyes and ears! I also added a couple sliced of cucumber cut into quarters. Thanks!

Hiw about small stems of celery? or snipped marshmallows on toothpicks?
Apr 8, 2009
You could probably use a large marshmellow for the tail.
Apr 8, 2009
Any suggestions for ears,instead of nuts?
Apr 8, 2009
Why not try crasins instead of raisins and cotttage cheese in place of whipped cream?
Apr 2, 2009
What a cute recipe to prepare with my granddaughter! But I intend to substitute bits of maraschino cherry for the rainsins or currants: bunny noses & eyes are pinkish red, not black!

early 500 fun runners chased a man-sized banana around Hyde Park in order to triumph in the 5k challenge 'Beat the Banana.'
The annual event in West London's world-famous park, and which uses a human fruit as a race pacemaker, is organised by World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF UK) to highlight the importance of healthy eating and active lifestyles in the prevention of cancer.
BanaBay, as official banana supplier to WCRF UK, provided bananas for the runners to give them a slow release energy boost during the event, which took place on 15 May.
To show its commitment to the cause, BanaBay's marketing and events manager, Anna Viralainen, also took part in the run.
She said: "Supporting this event held enormous appeal for BanaBay as it is a fun way to put across the serious message about eating well to reduce the risk of cancer.
"As well as being important to include in a diet containing plenty of fruit and vegetables, bananas are a popular choice for sportspeople to increase energy levels. I hope that our bananas helped the race participants get around the course."
BanaBay's involvement also provided a vital boost to funds, according to Michael Smeaton, deputy head of fundraising, WCRF UK.
He said: 'We are delighted to have the support of BanaBay; not just for our biannual Beat the Banana races, but for our events and activities throughout the year. Their passionate support for World Cancer Research Fund UK and our mission to reduce the prevalence of cancer has been incredible.
"We hope, with their support, we will be able to raise nearly £50,000 over the summer races to help us stop cancer before it starts, through scientific research and increasing awareness in society."

Hey guys,
I thought I'd share this with you in case somebody is interested:
For a limited time (I think, as of me writing this, just over a day left on the counter), anybody with a uplay-Account can grab the 1st installment of Watchdogs for free as part of a franchise-sale that Ubisoft is running to promote Watchdogs 2.
If you have an Account, just go into the client and get it - it's for free (I actually don't know yet if it's any good though, haven't even loooked at it yet but a flat 0,00€ on the pricetag is always a reason to pull the trigger xD)
Watchdogs FOR FREE on uplay
Use only if your topic doesn't fit into one of the categories above.

Bottom line, they still have to pass the California Bar before they can attempt to "change" anything.
If you graduate from a distance learning California law school, there is no petition possible until you pass the California bar. No other state will recognize the degree until you pass the California bar. There are no exceptions. I believe the same applies to all unaccredited Californua law schools regardless of whether they are distance or not.

do you actually jive with Logic, Jay? i ask because i found it completely counterintuitive, which is why i went with other DAWs.
there's a saying among some HD recorders - "there is nothing logical about Logic."
though i DO know a few people that love it...
Here's a pseudo-mic jaggeresque sketch

I have put in a sticky request.
Success! Thanks, Mitchrock!
I am looking at from more of a recording engineer or recordist (as
Albini would say) angle and Logic is not so nice.
Compatibility with everyone else along with ease of use are what I needed and Logic at the time was not friendly in those areas.
So i sat down loaded myself up with coffee this morning and after listening to way too much Scott Joplin and Django Reinhardt for the last week
popped this out

New Year's Eve
This year, hopefully, we will get our Telangana. On the New Year's Eve, students and many supporters of Telangana held all night vigil (called 'Jagarana') in Osmania University, Kakatiya University, and other places. They held lighted candles and listened to Telangana ballads and speeches the whole night. Those who oppose Telangana Movement hoped that Telangana protestors would disturb the New Year celebrations. They wanted the world to know how unruly, uncouth and barbaric the Telangana protestors were. Much to their disappointment, New Year celebrations went down peacefully.
Maha Garjana
The 'mighty roar' of Telangana students went off peacefully on 3rd January 2010. Anywhere between 80,000 to 200,000 students turned up at Arts College of Osmania University. These students came in from different parts of Telangana. Many students were stopped by police from entering the city and yet the turnout was huge. This few hours event went peacefully much to the dismay of those who wanted to see violence so that they can discredit the movement.
The students called for a separate Telangana. Some of them asked the student body not to trust even the Telangana politicians, and asked the students to keep the struggle on till we attain Telangana.
We are seeing a spate of Telangana ballads and songs on TV these days, thanks to Telangana Movement. We see Gaddar-like singers singing the political, economic and social messages, inspiring millions around Telangana. We are not happy just with clichés like 'kalasi unte kaladu sukam' (we will be happy if we are together). Instead we sing 'amaraveerulaku johaar', dedicated to our forefathers who have laid lives for the cause of our people. Little girls sing the songs of deprivation, wretchedness, the sorry plight of Telangana people. The songs move anyone who understands them, bring tears into your eyes, and make you sing and dance to them. Some Andhras continue to describe them cheap and silly.
However, Telanganas are no longer ashamed of singing their songs and speaking their dialect. Now they do so with pride. They do so even on the podiums in public rallies.
Animosity towards Andhras
For nearly sixty years now Telangana has endured discrimination, marginalization and domination from Andhras within the united state of Andhra Pradesh, and yet, if you recount the entire number of reprisals or violent attacks, you can hardly count them on your fingers. People of Telangana, though averse to living in the same state with Andhras, do not carry so much spite that they would actually resort to direct violence.
And yet, in the last thirty days, the animosity towards Andhras is only growing, thanks to delay tactics employed by proponents of Samaikya Andhra to stop Telangana from happening. The reason for this growing hatred and animosity lies squarely with the politicians of Andhra and people of Andhra who are opposing the formation of Telangana.
More the delay more the animosity. There is no need for that.
Message to everyone
To Andhras
Give up Telangana to Telanganas immediately. Give up Hyderabad to Telanganas immediately. No Telangana person is eyeing any of your cities or your assets. They just want to start a journey on their own – making their own state. They have waited for that to happen for fifty three years now. Think big. Respect it. And allow it to happen. You will not lose anything though you think that way. The more you delay it or the more you stop it, the more there will be animosity in this region. That is not good in the near term or in the long run. Why stop the inevitable?
To Andhra Settlers
As any immigrant you have not bothered to understand the region called Telangana. You were only interested in your well-being and well-being of your city called Hyderabad. But now Telangana is going through a crisis. Where do you stand? Do you sympathize with your Andhra brothers of Andhra region who don't want to give up Telangana? Or do you sympathize with your new found home which is linked to the fate of people of Telangana?
Yes, I understand you never got a chance to understand what this guy from Warangal wants. You find him alien. But please understand that he finds you alien too. So, instead of debating who is alien, whether an Andhra person settled in Hyderabad for 10 years or whether Warangal goon coming to Hyderabad for the first time, it's better that you reconcile to the fact that this city is linked to region for far longer than your 10-year stay. And this city is beacon of hope for this region. And whether you like it or not you are part of it. Now, it's time for you to make your stand clear.
I have heard a sane voice from a person settled in Hyderabad who has come out and said, yes I have understood the case of Telangana and therefore I support it.
The highlight of Thursday was the presence of K. Prasuna representing the 'settlers' at the relay hunger strike camp. Ms. Prasuna maintained that many of those who settled in Hyderabad but hail from other regions want Telangana to be a separate State.
Amidst lusty cheers and clapping, Ms. Prasuna said those who have settled in Hyderabad want to live in Telangana only, though they might have relations with other regions. "This would not make any difference even if the State is bifurcated. We can live peacefully here," Ms. Prasuna told the gathering.
I request others to do the same. However, we completely respect your right to differ from our opinion. And the law of the land should protect you. We will ensure it is protected.
To Telanganas
This is directed specially to the leaders of Telangana. Stop making threats. We don't want to go down that path. We can't sow such seed of hatred. I will be the first guy criticizing you once you form new government. Will you call me a traitor then? Stop these threats now.
People of Telangana, don't encourage our leaders to make those threats. Yes, it may feel good for momentarily, but it is not sustainable force. It will lead to a bad Telangana.
To others:
You may think we have bad leaders. But remembers this, bad leaders can be removed. The leaders you see now may not even rule us. But a separate Telangana will not stop because you think it has bad leaders or because the region is growing in animosity.

Here, in the heart of Naples old town within inches of Santa Chiara Church with its Cloister, the Veiled Christ and Via San Gregorio Armeno was born, in 2008, our Hotel.
The Decumani Hotel de Charme was originally built during the 17th century and belonged to Sisto Riario Sforza, the last Archbishop of Naples in the Bourbon Kingdom of the Two Sicilies of which Naples was the capital.
In 2008 we embarked on a major refurbishment programme for the second floor, where the Hotel is placed. The hotel has now been fully restored and equipping with all the modern conveniences our guests expect.
A wide lounge, decorated with golden stuccoes and mirrors, testifies the illustrious past of this residence.
All of our 42 bedrooms are fully air-conditioned and feature the following: Free Wi-Fi Internet, soundproof windows, flat screen Television with national and International channels, safe, minibar, direct dial telephone and hairdryer.
The Decumani Hotel de Charme is located in the Decumani, in the heart of the old town originally a Greek "polis" and then a Roman "urbs", an area wich represents with its squares, streets and alleys, a unique historical, cultural and artistic heritage, as it is testified by the acknowledgment of Unesco, which in 1995 declared the historic centre of Naples " the biggest open-air museum in the world".

If you're flying to the USA please ensure electrical devices are charged and capable of being switched on. Any passengers with specific queries about their individual flight should check with their airline for more detailed information.
At Manchester Airport, we make the safety and security of customers and staff our absolute priority. To make your journey as smooth as possible and avoid unnecessary delays, we ask that you pay special attention to our security procedure.
Please ensure that you read the latest regulations about what you can and cannot take on board the aircraft.

Like every end of the summer season I've turned myself onto a preserve mode. I feel like a squirrel who crams its tiny hollow with dry nuts till no free space is left. In my case the dry nuts are replaced by plums, tomatoes and red bell peppers. For the last two weeks the oven works almost every night. I'm using it as a dehydrator – fan function at 60 – 70ºC. Bell peppers, if on slices are completely dry in one night (in 2 – if left whole). Halved roma tomatoes and damson plums are ready in 2 nights.
When Claire from Purely food set this month's challenge for Fresh from the Oven to be fougasse I was more than anticipating to use the dehydrated bounty I've piled up in the larder.
When Claire from Purely food set this month's challenge for Fresh from the Oven to be fougasse I was more than anticipating to use the dehydrated bounty I've piled up in the larder.
I was the one who kneaded the dough but it was Ivan who made this beautiful leaf-like bread. We ate it with goat cheese and tomatoes. One segment of the leaf left and Ivan cut it into thin slices and made bruschetti out of it – they were gorgeous with Fourme d'Ambert cheese.
It was a wonderful and tasty challenge.
Don't forget to visit Fresh from the Oven page to see other members' creations.
Fougasse Recipe:
- 240 gr all purpose flour;
- 125 gr lukewarm water;
- 20 gr olive oil;
- 4 gr salt;
- 1 tsp sugar;
- 5 gr fresh yeast;
- 1 ½ tsp fresh rosemary(finely chopped);
- 1 Tbsp finely chopped dry tomatoes;
- 1 Tbsp crushed dry sweet red peppers;
- 1 Tbsp finely chopped olives.
In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, rosemary, dry tomatoes, dry peppers, olives. Mix well and make a well in the center.
In a small bowl, mix together water, sugar and yeast, then pour this mixture over the flour mixture. Add olive oil. Use your hand mixer equipped with the dough hooks to form dough. Transfer to a lightly floured counter top and knead by hand for around 10 minutes to develop the gluten. Transfer the dough back to the bowl, cover and leave it to rise until double in bulk.
Knock the dough back to a lightly floured counter top, give it a quick knead just to make it uniform and roll it out using a rolling pin or just stretch it with your hands.
Use bench scrapper or pizza cutter to make cuts resembling leaf veins on the flat bread. Stretch the holes with your hands and carefully transfer the fougasse onto lined with paper baking sheet. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and leave it to rise for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile preheat the oven to 220ºC. Brush the fougasse with olive oil and bake for 15 – 20 minutes or until golden. Take out of the oven and brush with olive oil again.
Best if eaten right away.
Best if eaten right away.

I was stumbled upon this Japanese restaurant Facebook page few days ago when I was browsing through my feeds and the words Japanese A La Carte Buffet at RM69 NETT caught my utmost attention. Yes, i was really hungry at that point and who can resist the thought of unlimited order of all the fresh sashimi without the need to worry about the bill. I always in the look out for A La Carte Buffet as i personally prefer food to be served upon order to ensure they are fresh and warm when i consume.
Before i know it , my fingers automatically dialing their phone number as advertised to make a reservation for the coming Saturday. I was worried if it may be fully booked and i have to suffer my crave for another week but boy i was lucky! Or maybe their recent buffet launch still not known by too many yet. So I went for it last Saturday night wearing one of my most comfortable outfit as i know i will be adding inches to the waist and it was the best decision ever!
This branch of the restaurant (currently the only branch that offers buffet) is located at Dataran Cascades Kota Damansara. If you are following Google Maps, please make sure that you select the correct one or you will end up being leaded to Sri Hartamas instead (like me) fml.

Service was okay and staff were helpful. Do expect some waiting time if the restaurant is running full capacity. Our orders came pretty fast for the first hour as we reached there before 7pm and it got slower when the crowd came.

I was not able to try everything on the menu but i definitely will be going back again. If only dessert can be added in the menu then it would be perfect *hopeful*. Maiu used to be my only option whenever i want to go for Japanese Ala Carte Buffet and i personally do not prefer Mitasu after one visit. I am glad that i found my new favourite place for Japanese A La Carte Buffet and i hope they will make this permanent.

A detective testified Thursday that Dr. Conrad Murray made 11 phone calls totaling just under 90 minutes as he treated Michael Jackson the day the superstar died.
Detective Dan Myers was scheduled to return to the stand Friday, which is Day 4 of the preliminary hearing. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor is being asked to determine if there is enough evidence for Murray, 57, to stand trial.
Myers testified Thursday that Murray -- who had two cellular phones in his name -- had made or received the calls between 7:01 a.m. and 11:51 a.m. June 25, 2009. Prosecutors contend that Murray, who is charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with Jackson's death, administered propofol to Jackson at the singer's rented Holmby Hills estate between 10:40 and 11 a.m.
Myers said the doctor's phone calls that morning included a 32-minute call to his practice in Las Vegas. They also included an 11-minute call made just before the doctor called Jackson's personal assistant at 12:12 p.m. to report that the singer had a "bad reaction," according to cellular phone records presented by Myers.
The calls also included one at 1:08 p.m. -- when other witnesses testified Murray was making a phone call from the ambulance containing Jackson -- to the mother of Murray's child, Myers said.
Prosecutors contend that Murray had "abandoned his patient" after administering the sedative, which is normally used in hospitals. Jackson died of acute propofol intoxication.
Prosecutors contend that Murray failed to tell paramedics or doctors that he had administered propofol to the singer and took steps that were an "extreme deviation from the standard of care." They also contend Murray and security personnel collected drug vials and other materials from the room before calling 911.
ER Doctors: Murray Never Indicated He Administered Drug
Two emergency room doctors from Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center testified Thursday that Murray never told them he had given the pop superstar a powerful sedative that eventually killed him.
Dr. Richelle Cooper testified that the singer "had no signs of life" when he was brought to the hospital.
She said she asked Murray what medications Jackson was on, and Murray said only the anxiety medication lorazepam. Cooper said Murray did not say he had given Jackson propofol.
Dr. Thao Nguyen, a cardiology fellow at UCLA, testified that she was introduced to Murray at the hospital and asked him what had happened. Murray told Nguyen that Jackson -- who had been rehearsing for a series of concerts in London -- was very tired but had difficulty sleeping and required some medications to help him rest, she said.
The doctor said she asked Murray what medications Jackson was given, and Murray mentioned only lorazepam.
Doctors worked on Jackson from the time the ambulance arrived at 1:13 p.m. until 2:26 p.m., when the singer was pronounced dead, Nguyen said.

Thanks for the info Bernie.
Coincidentally that site is where I originally got the CSS preload method I was using previously, which was actually working very well as far as preloading the images. John's code correction got rid of the initial white page which was being displayed, and instead now the page is black, as it should be; thereby making the same problem which is still there not as conspicuous. However, IE 9 is still delaying the display of the content on these pages, which doesn't seem to be caused by image loading time -- if I'm interpreting what I see correctly.

Now in its fourth year, the Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition's (SVBC) annual dinner is quickly becoming THE event of the year to celebrate an activity we're all passionate about. It's a great time to see cycling buddies and swap stories in a relaxed atmosphere. The open bar helped.
We met at the swank Palo Alto Golf and Country Club in the hills overlooking Arastradero Preserve. Talk about pampered. Valet parking!
I saw lots of familiar faces — bike shop owners and local luminaries. But there was also a strong showing of government agencies with a vested interest in cycling (Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) air quality watchdogs aka, Spare the Air), corporations, and bike racing team sponsors such as Webcor's Andy Ball.
Fresh off a nasty bike crash (too many broken bones to mention here), the silver-tongued race announcer Bruce Hildenbrand livened the proceedings with an insightful interview of 1988 Giro d'Italia winner Andy Hampsten; then he had the dinner crowd in stitches and spending money like there was no tomorrow. Money raised from the live auction of expensive bikes, vacation getaways, and high-tech wheels helps fund the SVBC.
Giro victory
Andy's accounts of winning the Giro, racing with Greg LeMond, and his legendary race over Gavia Pass in a blinding snowstorm were nothing less than uplifting. How could anyone maintain such a positive attitude with so much suffering? It's no doubt why Andy still loves to ride and leads annual tours through the Alps.
Corinne Winter, President and Executive Director of SVBC, recognized the volunteer heroes of Silicon Valley over the past year. High-flying data storage company NetApp took home the award for corporate support.
Bike charity
Dave Fork, who has turned the Bike Exchange in Mountain View into an institution, won the 2011 Ellen Fletcher Volunteer Award, and deservedly so. His leadership has resulted in more than 500 bikes a year being donated to people who could never afford one. Dozens of cyclists volunteer their time restoring bikes that would otherwise wind up in the landfill.
Corinne concluded the evening with a "Vision Zero: Silicon Valley" plan for 2012. SVBC will continue efforts to address unsafe intersections and dangerous roadways, all with the goal of zero fatalities and injuries. SVBC works hand in hand with local governments to find project funding.

Amphionides reynaudii is the only species in this Order, and is a small (less than one inch long) planktonic crustacean found throughout the world's tropical oceans, the larvae mostly in shallow waters, and the adults at greater depth.
Morphologically, Amphionides is somewhat unusual, with many body parts being reduced or absent. For example, it has only one pair of mouthparts – the maxillae – the mandibles and maxillules being vestigial.[1]
Males and females differ in the form of the antennae, and also by the presence in males of the eighth thoracic appendage, albeit in a reduced form. This is the site of the male gonopore (the female's gonopore is on the sixth thoracic appendage).[1] The first pleopod of the female is greatly enlarged and almost encloses the enlarged carapace. This is assumed to be a chamber in which the eggs are fertilised and retained until hatching.[1] The more streamlined carapace and pleopods of the male make it more hydrodynamic, and so fewer males are caught than females.

Problem is, is that a Vietnamese forum? I definitely don't know how to read that and I don't know how to sign up to that forum. Which appears to be a requirement before you can download. Can you upload those files here or anywhere else?
