Nice. Looks like ALCO is exactly 10K away from a straight. 24,756 --> 34,756

Get to it. :D

What's nice about this victory is that France is going to be home watching the knockout rounds. ^

Why do they even bother with a cold water valve on faucets in Houston? The "cold" seems to only be a few degrees cooler than the hot. Or, is it just the plumbing in our building?

Afraid of soccer hegemony.

WOW! I was following the game on twitter all the way to LGA (with three bags...NEVER AGAIN) and the last thing I saw was that it was in the 87th minute and scoreless. :eek: I got the laptop out at the gate and fired up ESPN3 just in time to see the replay of the goal. :-::-::-:

:( I have no innate love for car racing...or curling...but I keep watching them so that I can hopefully learn/appreciate more about them since so many people that I like to talk to are into them!

In other news, my mother has just sent me an email full of the pearls of wisdom that she gathered from watching three hours of "Say Yes to the Dress." I knew she was crazy and had too much free time now that she's empty-nesting, but geez, this is a new low. :rolleyes:

In other important news, the moratorium on deepwater drilling was struck down late yesterday.

http://www.laed.uscourts.gov/GENERAL...1663_doc67.pdf

One of the juicier parts of the decision:

Quote:
In the Executive Summary to the Report, the Secretary [Salazar] recommends “a six-month moratorium on permits for new wells being drilled using floating rigs.” He also recommends “an immediate halt to drilling operations on the 33 permitted wells, not including relief wells currently being drilled by BP, that are currently being drilled using floating rigs in the Gulf of Mexico.”

Much to the government’s discomfort and this Court’s uneasiness, the Summary also states that “the recommendations contained in this report have been peer-reviewed by seven experts identified by the National Academy of Engineering.” As the plaintiffs, and the experts themselves, pointedly observe, this statement was misleading. The experts charge it was a “misrepresentation.” It was factually incorrect. Although the experts agreed with the safety recommendations contained in the body of the main Report, five of the National Academy experts and three of the other experts have publicly stated that they “do not agree with the six month blanket moratorium” on floating drilling.
I have a feeling Salazar will be out of a job soon.

Usually just the plumbing. The pipes get heated up during the day and it takes a while for the cold water to cool them down by the time it gets to your faucet.
