Twelve Weeks of Christmas Cookies, Week 10: Peppermint Meringue Cups
Did you happen to see these on the last page of Martha Stewart's Living December issue? That magazine always has a fun holiday recipe like this...last year I made those white chocolate covered mint cookies. This year, these adorable peppermint cups. Let me be honest here: I'm not the least bit adept with a pastry bag so really wasn't certain I could manage these little melt-in-your-mouth gems. And when I referred back to the photo in the magazine, I noticed theirs were less red than mine. So if you're going to try them, don't paint your red line in the pastry bag as thickly as I did. Unless you like them with as much red as this.
All in all, these were wonderful. The peppermint taste is just right, the ganache perfect and they are the perfect holiday treat to pop in your mouth. Such fun!
Mini Peppermint-Meringue Cups with Ganache
From Martha Stewart Living Magazine, December 2010
Ingredients:
vegetable oil cooking spray
3 large egg whites, room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
red gel-paste food coloring
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate
1 cup heavy cream
garnish: 1 candy cane, crushed
Method:
Preheat oven to 175° . (Mine registers no lower than 200°, but it worked fine.)Trace 16 circles onto each of 2 pieces of parchment paper, using a 1 and 3/4 inch round cookie cutter, spacing about 2 inches apart. Coat 2 baking pans with the cooking spray and top each with the parchment paper, traced side down.
Heat the egg whites and the sugar in a mixer bowl over simmering water until sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm to the touch, about 3 minutes.
Transfer bowl to mixer and beat until stiff peaks form. Beat in the peppermint extract.
Using a small food-safe paint brush, paint three stripes of the red food coloring on the inside of a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4 inch plain round tip.
Transfer the meringue to the pastry bag and pipe coils to fill the traced circle. The pipe in the sides to create a 3/4 to 1 inch cup.
Bake until meringue cups are crisp but not browned, about 1 1/2 hours. Transfer to a wire rack and cool.
Put the chocolate in a bowl. Heat the cream to a simmer and add to the chocolate. Allow to stand for a couple minutes, then stir to dissolve the chocolate. Mix with a wooden spoon until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap, cut a small slit in the top and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour to one hour and 15 minutes. (I got side-tracked and left mine too long, but microwaved it until it softened enough to put in the pastry bag.
Stir the ganache, fill a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4 inch open star tip. Pipe ganache into the meringue cups. Garnish with the crushed peppermint stick.
Makes 32.

Barb, this is so clever. At first I thought you twisted a candy cane somehow, then I read the ingredients...
I was just taking a break from making italian meringue... and felt very pleased with myself making pasta with the left-over yolks. These look just adorable... and I like the thick swirls, Barbara. They look powerful minty good to me. I have a few cookies on my Xmas baking list now...isn't Martha the best for this kind of thing???
Ooooh...yes please! These look turned out beautifully Barbara. I'm not good with the pastry bag. You did a great job.
Sam
Barbara, they look wonderful! Love mint and meringues so I will be giving these a try as soon as I can manuever a pastry bag again!
I love the peppermint swirls and how festive these look. You can't get better a better combination than chocolate and mint for Christmas. I need to take Pastry Bag 101!
I love festive cookies like these. They look great! I always plan to attempt a lot more cookies than I really have time for, but I'm looking forward to baking as many as I can.
Oh, they are so pretty and festive! What a great idea.
Cheers,
Rosa
Darling, Barbara!! These have to be my favorite cookies of yours yet. :-) SO cute!!
those look fantastic, how clever to paint the red in the bag that way~
Yours came out amazing! I saw them in the magazine and was tempted to try but they'd never look as nice as yours! Love the chocolate with mint!
wow these look like so much fun :-0
What a fun little cookie. You did a great job on the meringue cup, they look so festive.
Mimi
Oh yum Barbara, these look delicious and would be so lovely for Christmas.
Thanks for sharing this recipe and would like to try these.
I am not good with a piping bag.
Happy weekend
Hugs
Carolyn
Why are they red? Should they not be green, like peppermint? Anyhow, I'm intensely suspicious of anything that has red food coloring in it. But I love anything meringue!
Wow, beautifully done daaaaahling, they really capture the spirit of the season. Martha always knows a "good thing" and this is no exception.
*kisses* HH
To me Barbara these little treats look very elegant and scrumptious.
Hey Barbara, I like the red in these meringues-it's so pretty and festive. They do sound delicious too, but I have a feeling I would botch these. I bet mine would just look pink and not striped (smile). I'm going to bookmark it anyway, as the recipe is simple and I promised myself I would enjoy more Holiday cookies this year:)
p.s. Yes, it is nice to have some cool weather! I was wondering if it was even going to happen...
Beautiful! these look great! I love meringues.
Wow Barbara, these look wonderful - so festive. Lucie x
Very beautiful meringues. Love the swirl. They look like little flowers!
I might have to try those... because they're peppermint and so very cute!
Wow, these are very festive cookies Barbara.
for someone who's not too good with a pastry bag, you did a brilliant job Barbara. This look adorable and so delicious. I love anything with mint and actually like the red of your cookies.
Oooh--these sound like such a yummy treat. I've been longing to make some peppermint cookies / candies for a couple weeks now and just might get to it tomorrow after seeing your post!
put down the idiot books and come share some of your fun holiday books next saturday!
These are TOO adorable. I love them. Mom always made meringue cookies every year at Christmas flavoured with peppermint. They were green and she would sometimes add chocolate chips. We loved them either way. That was years ago... and these are BRILLIANT, Barbara! My students would love to make them. I do a peppermint swirl cupcake with them, and these would be such a great learning experience and so much fun... for me, too!
Big hug! BIGGGG hug,
:)
Valerie

Wow. The peppermint and chocolate combo is heavenly delish. I am definately putting this on my list of holiday treats. Thanks for sharing.
Very cute and oh-so-festive, these would be a welcome addition to our holiday "petite dessert" platter.
Thanks, Barbara!

These are entirely too perfect and demand to be made. I love that first photograph. Have a great weekend. Blessings...Mary
Oh, these are lovely, Barbara! I bet they'd be amazing with a nice hot cup of peppermint tea...mmm... ;)

Cute! They're the perfect size, and a great way to use peppermint.
Oh my!.not only does those cookies look amazing but the recipe sounds super delicious!

Barbara, me thinks you are trying to ruin my figure this season???? I don't think I could resist eating the entire pan of these. But, they are almost too pretty to eat, don't you think?
have a great week!
hugs
i'm not the least bit adept w/a pastry bag either which is why i wasn't sure i wanted to attempt them either. but you've done a fantastic job Barbara - i'd say you're rather fearless!
These mini meringues are so beautiful. They Look like candy cane swirls! Brilliant idea, Barbara.
Wow, those are beautiful little creations! I have absolutely no talent with a pastry bag but you have inspired me to try these - thanks!
Wow, these are so pretty! The bright red really makes it look like peppermint candy. Oh my gosh, I can almost taste it in my mouth!
How pretty these are! These treats are as festive as festive gets. ;)
I love the color of your meringues. I would definitely enjoy eating these little bites. By the way, I'm holding a giveaway on my blog for Orglamix Organic makeup and you're welcome to come by and enter.
They are SO cute and very festive. Like a grown up version of candy canes. Love it, and I think the red is just right.
You make the most festive after dinner treats , Barbara!
How do you come up with them? I have never seen stunning streats like these before!
MMMMMMM,...!!
Gorgeous. And gluten free! Thanks!
Peppermint meringue sounds like childhood for me!
For me isn't Xmas if don't have it!
So pretty and beautifully festive!
These meringues are so cute and festive, with their red and white stripes. :)
Most beautiful meringue I have seen! Such wonderful play of colors, Barbara!
The red is perfect Barbara!
THese are so pretty!!!
I just had to try these, but have never made a meringue before. I beat my egg whites and sugar for about 10 minutes, but they never formed stiff peaks. Any idea what I did wrong?
these look so good. I love Martha!
Oh! Stripes on the piping bag! How very clever. | http://moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.com/2010/12/twelve-weeks-of-christmas-cookies-week.html | 2013-05-18T11:02:06 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
John Neville, best known for playing the title role in cult classic (though at the time it was a huge flop; I remember screening it at the Drive-In on it’s opening night to no more than three cars) “The Adventures of Baron Munchausen”, has died aged 86.
The theater, film and television star was also known for his roles in “The X-Files : Fight the Future” movie (in which he played ‘The Well-Manicured Man’), Luc Besson’s “The Fifth Element” (as General Staedert), “A Study in Terror” (As Sherlock Holmes) and TV’s “The First Churchills” (playing John Churchill, Duke of Marlborough). His last feature film appearance was in 2005′s “Separate Lies”.
Let’s remember some of the work of the great Mr Neville…

Craig's Movie Breakdown: "No"
on 2013-03-12 14:19
Movie Review: "No" -
The Lead-up:
An inspiring Chilean film that debuted to strong acclaim at Cannes last year, “No” was nominated for a Best Foreign Language Oscar at this year’s Academy Awards, where it lost to “Amour”. The film is based on a true story of a 1988 publicity campaign that led to democratic elections that eventually ousted Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, a man responsible for several successful economic reforms, but also corruption, thousands of deaths, 80,000 interned in concentration camps, and 30,000 tortured, including women and children. This is not the first time director Pablo Larrain has used Pinochet for a subject. His 2010 film “Post Mortem” was a fictionalized story that used Pinochet’s 1973 military coup that overthrew former President Salvador Allende as a backdrop. Pedro Peirano wrote the script for the film, based off an unpublished play by Antonio Skarmeta.
The Plot:
Facing increased pressure from his opposition, President Augusto Pinochet calls for a vote on whether or not Chile should keep him around or turn to a democratic election. For 27 days the people of Chile would be shown ads for and against his reinstatement. The “No to Pinochet” campaign calls upon a young advertising executive named Rene Saavedra (Gael Garcia Bernal, “Y Tu Mama Tambien”, “The Motorcycle Diaries”, “Babel”) to create ads to fill it’s 15 minutes of television air time per day.
Review:
Like many of you, I knew very little about this election or much about Chilean politics before I did some (meager) research on it and watched this film. “No” has been criticized by some who say that the movie side-tracks any political context at the time and gives too much credit to Saavedra, who is actually a composite of several ad execs at the time, and his team and to that I say “sure”. At no time in “No” do we feel like we’re getting the full story but more like 25 percent of it. This is a small part but there’s also no denying that television advertising has become a major part of the political process, something that can be seen as both a grain of truth but also heavily manipulated.
“No” hits on these things. There’s quite a few advertising conundrums here. First Saavedra needs to convince people who have been too repressed by fear or convinced that this is all a fraud that Pinochet is perpetuating and he has no intention of ever being overthrown, secondly he needs to build a campaign that is one of levity and hope but also cannot deny the pain and atrocities of the past while also not inspiring more fear among the people, and third he has to do it with repeated harassment by those in higher positions. Obviously this all worked out but anyone with a strong interest in media will have a fine time analyzing these ads, both for their ability to get the message across and for the degree of sugar-coating used. One ad in particular of an officer beating a man in the street, complete with audio commentary, struck me as the most powerful. That’s the great part about the movie. The ad’s are actually documentary footage of real ads. In addition Larrain shoots the rest of the film in U-Matic video tape, which gives it a washed-out, bland looking 80’s feel that puts you right back into the time period.
But if you’re not terribly interested in media, you’re still going to get a strong David vs. Goliath story and maybe the most popular Mexican actor of his time, Garcia Bernal, gives a fantastic performance as this ad-man, who balances his characters first inclination to give everything a light comic touch with a man who is ready to orchestrate a huge change. One of the things I would have liked more information on is the relationship between Saavedra and his activist wife; at one moment they seem married and the next they’re divorced and she with another man and I completely missed their problem. The second half also loses steam as we get closer to an election where the outcome is already known. But as a movie about using media as a weapon in politics, it works very well. | http://movieroomreviews.com/reviews/craigs-movie-breakdown-no?_movieroom_celeb_block_callback_tab=2&referer=node%2F132942&args= | 2013-05-18T10:53:46 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Here's another reason to be excited about the Big 70th birthday party – our first real look at 11-month-old Aaradhya Bachchan. The Bachchans walked the red carpet without little Aaradhya who was there but asleep in a room, Aishwarya said. But, once inside, the tiny tot was allowed to enjoy the party and looked very festive, if a little bemused, in a white dress and hair ornament.

Before long, the foursome find they have more in common than they imagined, and they come to regard each other as family. But a robbery committed by the kids in a moment of anger could have consequences that will put an end to their friendship.

The current edition of the Economist features an article on "Dream on?", which is unprofessional, misleading and wrong on basic facts about Poland.
First, it says that "In Poland, for example, credit to the private sector grew by an extraordinary 36.6% in 2008, contributing to a current-account deficit of almost 9% of GDP." This is manipulation, because it talks about growth from a level of private credit that it much lower than anywhere else among peers and thus much less worrisome (Poland's private credit to GDP ratio is one of the lowest in the whole EU, close to Romania only; it is much different to worry about fast credit growth in an economy with credit much exceeding 100% of GDP, like in most of the EU, than in Poland, with 60% of GDP or so).
Second, thee current account deficit in 2008 was only 6.6% of GDP, according to the IMF, not almost 9% of GDP (where did they get the data from???).
Third, it argues that "In recent months, the FDI and portfolio capital Poland required to fill this [current account gap] gap has flowed in the wrong direction. That leaves the country uncomfortably "susceptible" to the euro crisis, says Raffaella Tenconi of Bank of America Merrill Lynch, if it prompts a further withdrawal of cross-border lending", which is another manipulation since the data are taken out of context and are for only of couple of months of the year (exactly when dividends are paid to foreign owners of Polish companies, which biases the data, rather than for the usual whole year). For the whole year, the IMF projects a current account deficit of 4.4% of GDP only, largely financed by FDI and EU inflows. I don't know who Raffaella Tenconi from BoFA is, but she doesn't really know what she is talking about (or she has a short position on the zloty and wants to finance her early retirement....). As to her claim that Poland is susceptible to the euro crisis, while true in general (which country in Europe isn't?), is wrong in detail as Poland is one of the least, not the most susceptible economies in the EU to the euro zone further troubles. If fact, as I have argued before, the euro zone crisis is a blessing for Poland, since, inter alia, it keeps the zloty exchange rate so low, that Poland is Europe's China in terms of price competitiviness. The banking sector, which Tenconi implicitly argues would be the major channel of contagion, is well capitalized, profitable, and largely funded by domestic deposits making withdrawals of foreign financing less relevant (the two largest banks, PKO BP and PEKAO SA, have loan-to-deposit ratios below 100, meaning that all their loans are financed by domestic deposits, not foreign borrowing)
Finally, it is a shame that the Economist continues to classify Poland as an emerging market, putting it in the same basket as China, Russia ot Turkey. Poland, with GDP per capita PPP of US$20,000, three times the level of China, is not an emerging market anymore. The World Bank and the OECD now officially classify Poland as a developed economy, not an emerging market. According to the IMF, Poland's GDP per capita will exceed that of Portugal and Greece in the next couple of years - perhaps we should call these countries "emerging" (even if for now they are rather "submerging" to be exact) too? Time for the Economist to grow up.

Rosique, Francisco (2010): The Determinants of Corporate Growth.
Abstract
Corporate Growth is a concept that has been widely treated in a specific way or as part of strategy theories, in definition and in econometric models and has also been studied in many different aspects and approaches. The author describes in depth the main variables affecting corporate growth and the underlying business processes. This empirical research has focused on Sales, Profit-Cash Flow, Risk, Created Shareholder Value, Market Value and Overall Performance econometric models. These panel data models are based on the 500 Companies of the Standard & Poor’s 500. The methodology used has been very strict in identifying exogenous variables, walking through the different alternative econometric models, discussing results, and, in the end, describing the practical implications in today’s business corporate management. We basically assume that the Functions/Departments act independently in the same company, many times with different objectives, and in this situation clear processes are key to clarify the situations, roles and responsibilities. We also assume that growth implies interactions among the different functions in a company and the CEO acts to lead and coach his immediate Directors as a referee of the key conflicts through his Operating Mechanism. The objective of this PhD Dissertation is to clarify the business priorities and identify the most relevant variables in every process leading to the highest efficiency in reaching a sustainable and profitable growth. It covers the lack of academic studies on the nature and specific driving factors of corporate growth and provides a working framework for Entrepreneurs and Management leading to the Company’s success. | http://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/24336/ | 2013-05-18T10:21:39 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

“Big Brother and the National Reading Curriculum” by Richard L. Allington. “How ideology trumped evidence” is the focus of this book. Basically, most of what is mandated for reading instruction has been done before and didn’t work when it was done the first time. However, opportunists took it upon themselves to ignore evidence in the name of fighting illiteracy which led to bogus research and bogus laws (No Child Left Behind) which led to funding being tied to specific instructional practices, that didn’t work 30-40 years ago. I will do my best to give more information as I get through the book. Just know that a lot of what you know about reading instruction in America is ideologically motivated, not evidence motivated which is a problem. #education #personalfavorites

Did Mo’Kelly Singlehandedly Submarine ‘The Skank Robbers’?
Mo’Kelly isn’t saying he did, but let the record reflect he was the ONLY voice
in the media discussing the issue and serving as the opposition. Remember, The Mo’Kelly Report took this on FIRST. The Mo’Kelly Report respectfully called out Halle Berry as to her involvement.
If this movie ever does come to pass, The Mo’Kelly Report will be right here, blog locked and loaded. If it doesn’t…know that The Mo’Kelly Report was the FIRST and ONLY media voice willing to take this head on.
Check this out from shadowandact.com
I’m sure you and all your friends have been waiting with anxious breath for the comedy smash of the year, The Skank Robbers – the film that will chronicle the hilarious hijinks of ShenenehJenkins (played by Martin Lawrence) and Wanda Wayne (played by Jamie Foxx).
The film reportedly even stars EVERYONE’S favorite, Halle Berry, in a co-starring role (though that was more of a rumor than anything else), and it was announced that an August 19th release date was set.
One problem… is the film actually being made? So far, there’s no indication that shooting has even begun. According to IMDB.com, the film is still listed as in “pre-production” with no director or other crew members listed. Could it be that saner heads have prevailed?
Or, as I suspected, was the whole project nothing more than another one of those Hollywood “trial balloons” that are announced in the show business trades all the time. In other words, Foxx and Lawrence got it in their heads that this would be a good idea for a movie, and purposely leaked it to the media as a sure thing, to see what the public reaction would be.
If the reaction was positive, then they would go ahead; but if it was met with derision and yawns, they would drop the project and quietly sneak away into the night. So far, the evidence is the public doesn’t want to see the film (though of course there are always people willing to see any kind of crap), and the recent lackluster box office response of Big Mommas perhaps finally killed off the project for good.
If anyone has any knowledge about the project’s status, let us know; but if it never sees the light of day, will anyone be crying? I seriously doubt that.

SleepEx function
Suspends the current thread until the specified condition is met. Execution resumes when one of the following occurs:
- An I/O completion callback function is called.
- An asynchronous procedure call (APC) is queued to the thread.
- The time-out interval elapses.
Syntax
Parameters
- dwMilliseconds [in]
The indicates that the suspension should not time out.
- bAlertable [in]
If this parameter is FALSE, the function does not return until the time-out period has elapsed. If an I/O completion callback occurs, the function does not return and the I/O completion function is not executed. If an APC is queued to the thread, the function does not return and the APC function is not executed.
If the parameter is TRUE and the thread that called this function is the same thread that called the extended I/O function (ReadFileEx or WriteFileEx), the function returns when either the time-out period has elapsed or when an I/O completion callback function occurs. If an I/O completion callback occurs, the I/O completion function is called. If an APC is queued to the thread (QueueUserAPC), the function returns when either the timer-out period has elapsed or when the APC function is called.
Return value
The return value is zero if the specified time interval expired.
The return value is WAIT_IO_COMPLETION if the function returned due to one or more I/O completion callback functions. This can happen only if bAlertable is TRUE, and if the thread that called the SleepEx function is the same thread that called the extended I/O function.
Remarks. For more information, see Scheduling Priorities.
This function can be used with the ReadFileEx or WriteFileEx functions to suspend a thread until an I/O operation has been completed. These functions specify a completion routine that is to be executed when the I/O operation has been completed. For the completion routine to be executed, the thread that called the I/O function must be in an alertable wait state when the completion callback function occurs. A thread goes into an alertable wait state by calling either SleepEx, MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx, WaitForSingleObjectEx, or WaitForMultipleObjectsEx, with the function's bAlertable parameter set to TRUE.
Be careful when using SleepEx in the following scenarios:
- Code that directly or indirectly creates windows (for example, DDE and COM CoInitialize). If a thread creates any windows, it must process messages. Message broadcasts are sent to all windows in the system. If you have a thread that uses SleepEx SleepEx with an interval of zero to wait for one of the additional associated threads to accomplish some work, the process might deadlock.
For these scenarios, use MsgWaitForMultipleObjects or MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx, rather than SleepEx.

SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail function
The SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail function retrieves driver information detail for a device information set or a particular device information element in the device information set.
Syntax
Parameters
- DeviceInfoSet [in]
A handle to a device information set that contains a driver information element for which to retrieve driver information.
- DeviceInfoData [in, optional]
A pointer to an SP_DEVINFO_DATA structure that specifies a device information element that represents the device for which to retrieve driver information. This parameter is optional and can be NULL. If this parameter is specified, SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail retrieves information about a driver in a driver list for the specified device. If this parameter is NULL, SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail retrieves information about a driver that is a member of the global class driver list for DeviceInfoSet.
- DriverInfoData [in]
A pointer to an SP_DRVINFO_DATA structure that specifies the driver information element that represents the driver for which to retrieve details. If DeviceInfoData is specified, the driver must be a member of the driver list for the device that is specified by DeviceInfoData. Otherwise, the driver must be a member of the global class driver list for DeviceInfoSet.
- DriverInfoDetailData [in, out]
A pointer to an SP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA structure that receives detailed information about the specified driver. If this parameter is not specified, DriverInfoDetailDataSize must be zero. If this parameter is specified, DriverInfoDetailData.cbSize must be set to the value of sizeof(SP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA) before it calls SetupDiGetDriverInfoDetail.
Note DriverInfoDetailData.cbSize must not be set to the value of the DriverInfoDetailDataSize parameter.
- DriverInfoDetailDataSize [in]
The size, in bytes, of the DriverInfoDetailData buffer.
- RequiredSize [out, optional]
A pointer to a variable that receives the number of bytes required to store the detailed driver information. This value includes both the size of the structure and the additional bytes required for the variable-length character buffer at the end that holds the hardware ID list and the compatible ID list. The lists are in REG_MULTI_SZ format. For information about hardware and compatible IDs, see Device Identification Strings.
Return value
The function returns TRUE if it is successful. Otherwise, it returns FALSE and the logged error can be retrieved by making a call to GetLastError.
Remarks
If the specified driver information member and the caller-supplied buffer are both valid, this function is guaranteed to fill in all static fields in the SP_DRVINFO_DETAIL_DATA structure and as many IDs as possible in the variable-length buffer at the end while still maintaining REG_MULTI_SZ format. In this case, the function returns FALSE and a call to GetLastError returns ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER. If specified, RequiredSize contains the total number of bytes required for the structure with all IDs.

Current Video:#AskRosenthal: Angels Finished?|
FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal answers your Twitter questions about the Angels, Nationals and Cardinals.
Automatically Generated Transcript (may not be 100% accurate)
I'm Ken Rosenthal and welcome to this edition of tweet talk back. At some pretty good question this week so let's start with the best in my opinion and go from there. First comes from the baseball. Active martone who asked can it. Who are the nationals going to play in the first round of the playoffs and will Jackson or Atlanta and be in the rotation. Well. Whatever you name it. Have no idea right now entering Wednesday's played nationals we're tied with the Cincinnati Reds for the best record in nationally. And that record of course long term in which team plays the Giants and which team plays the wild card. And so let's say including nationals manager Davey Johnson that it might be better off finishing with the second best record because at that point do we report would be. It would be the Giants. I don't buy that. The team that ultimately is the overall best team nationally one of the best overall record. We'll end up playing one of the wild card teams beat you did the Braves or most likely the Cardinals. That team will have to birdie at best pitchers in the wild card game and a half that pitcher available again until at least game three. So if on the national where the red -- 46. If Tim wants to know what the angels' chances are of getting the second wild card are -- rock hard for that matter. Well I'm sitting here on Wednesday and the chances are not especially good. And the reason for that obviously is that the Angels are two games out entering play on Wednesday. And while it is a much more difficult schedule down the -- | http://msn.foxsports.com/topics/device/m/m/video/63918053/askrosenthal-angels-finished.htm | 2013-05-18T10:35:53 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Current Video:Roenick remembers|
Todd Walsh sits down with Jeremy Roenick as he recalls some of the greatest moments in his hockey career.
Automatically Generated Transcript (may not be 100% accurate)
Well there they are the numbers of the man of the night here are going into the Coyotes ring of honor Jeremy Roenick I'm not a big stats guy but these numbers just jump off the -- don't think. Twenty National Hockey League seasons see the games the goals and points. Nine time all star and earlier this year it's -- -- a banner year for generally inducted into the US hockey hall of fame. That's Johnny Cash -- induction plaque on packaging them but I actually say that with great respect and you and then he could -- -- wanted to win -- here on Coyotes line. Presented by century generic -- Well she could it be -- it would have thought aha he's pool and still we're both still standing or well. Apparently barely hey listen if united we can go on -- here. But we can't okay so -- was -- -- -- -- try to keep my achievements or we have a ceremony we have to get to -- like a couple of minutes and especially here's I wanna start with a story that I can't believe -- never ask you and many others have I don't wanna give you tonight. On a flashback to use -- ironic as a kid going to see the Hartford whalers and act guy right there and I Gordy -- what did he do in warm ups that changed. Really the scope of your career. Or -- obviously one of the the biggest icons and in hockey history when I lived in Hartford he played for Hartford whalers with -- on Marty -- mark. In that seven years old we practiced. On the same practice so that they didn't we played our game we got out and we neither of Hartford -- are going out to play. So we ran -- I got my stuff off and went up and pet and we hung over the glass like all the kids didn't hang over the glass and watch a player's skate by and watch them go by and you know we've -- -- Wallace stuff well. This -- all lined up on the glass and Gordy Howe came in and grabbed snow on the stick and dumped all over my head. Cycle you know oh my god in all my buddies -- according -- just dumps and all of my head. They came back around and he winked at me. And it was so who Aussie because. He dumped snow on my head he didn't dump snow -- all the other kids that he picked me out of all the kids dump snow on him and then again came back and winked at me so acknowledge me again. And I remember how I felt when that happened it was like the coolest thing I've ever that ever experience. And I talked about for months and months and months and I remembered for years and years and years. That's what made me know that I can have an effect on the people. We got a couple still photos that I think clearly demonstrate that along the way the acknowledgment of the people that are spending their hard earned cash. Investing in you and your teams financially and emotionally right no question it if it wasn't for the fans. We wouldn't be pros pro athletes -- you need to fans to two to go out there and support their teams to to fill the Arenas to. To spend their money to come in and build business to allow us to do we do and I always knew that I was acknowledged that. And it's good to change people's lives but just by. A little bit of attention it doesn't take too much it doesn't hurt and you know that's what makes the world go round and then you can make an affect how long lasting effect on a lot of kids. With that just a couple of -- let's wrestle on wanna move to opening night here and Phoenix in America west arena the companies in the San Jose Sharks in the role that you play it is the first I think real face of the franchise. For this. This entire franchise in the valid because. There was more responsibility than just being a hockey -- hockey team wasn't there are no question you know when you're bringing that team into a new city where. You know half the people might know. The game it happens don't. There was a responsibility want to make sure that that we had a good product put on the ice. But also that we educated. The people who weren't so so. Knowledgeable about the game of hockey or the NHL. So for us it was great out in the public doing events doing speaking events doing charitable things. Doing that the Cardinals which is always a lot of fun and a and I like that to reach out and help. Help people get excited about our sport year. Was one of the greatest things where we don't have a lot of time but I wanted to play the role of analyst here it because you belong to simulate that I -- -- you actually belong to some of the other teams along the way that you belong to everybody itself. I just when -- pitcher here instant recollection there has -- for some video. Otherwise from time to journalists outside of the companies like say in Chicago. Well Chicago obviously that you know we're. A big part of my heart is they they brought me in the National Hockey League. They drafted me eighteen Philadelphia Flyers the way they brought me in the fans the way they treated me LA. Bring me over even though it stunk and now they you know but that happens in San Jose giving me an opportunity. To finish my career and and kind of regained respectability. That I might have lost for a few years and you know to be it was sheer stuff like this with my son and to. You know it -- to be in this city. At the end of my career that that appreciated me and I could I could be a mentor for a lot of kids. I have been really really lucky I wanna -- in January and -- about your time in Phoenix I would take you back to I think if you're defining moment as Phoenix and I think it. It is emblematic of your entire career Jeremy Roenick and that is the months of march and April 19998 to go there but we have to let's take a look at the video all starts with -- -- spot -- for him on Michael -- of. A little bit -- and if that was my textbook hit night -- Mike and they sent us shockwaves through Dallas and going into Dallas I knew that that there are gonna become an affidavit that was tried to get the best like -- was -- ultimate competitor here. Just couple days later. You know 255. Pounds very accurate throws -- flying elbow might disintegrate I can literally pick my. It might take out of my face right -- this thing like for. For a few hours and coming back fifteen days later doctor every day I did wonders to get my mind. They expect together it. You know you don't play hockey with your face and I realize that and if I can play if I can do and. Anything to be in the game I was doing my job Rose -- but that was. That was one of my most. Most proud moments that that I can play that game I don't argue later that's an iconic moment in sports history and again I think defines who you -- before -- go our I want to get to a guy that. Got a little retaliation and Darian Hatcher for you that as a captain of the tea while you were here when you please tell us your relationship with him. It's not then and now in the last ninety seconds that we. Probably one of my most favorite if not the most favorite TV I had that Chris Chelios Tony Monte. I got to throw them up as my favorite. When you talk about -- -- ultimate warrior. There's not a warrior that live the game that played the game that was passion about the game Penske it's because talent. The way he treated people the way he took the captaincy so seriously in the way he. He ran his team. I'm proud he's a Bostonians I'm proud that I got to play with them.

PURCHASE, N.Y. – Today's college graduates are facing an uphill battle to find jobs in Westchester County as the population continues to age.
The senior citizen population in Westchester is expected to grow by over 17 percent from 2000 and 2025, according to Laurence Gottlieb, director of economic development for Westchester County. Gottlieb, who spoke at Manhattanville College’s Business Career Fair Tuesday morning, said that conversely, the population of people between 25 and 44 is expected to drop by 1 percent during that same period.
“It’s not unusual to go to a CVS in Westchester and see more folks with gray hair than kids with acne,” Gottlieb said.
Gottlieb said this trend is narrowing the gap between the number of people working and number of retirees. In 1950, he said, there were 16 workers for every retiree in the U.S., but he estimated that by 2025 there would be only two workers for every retiree.
“This is a huge tidal wave that is coming,” Gottlieb said. “If we don’t make sure the youth are employed, it’s going to be more difficult to pay for a retiree’s benefits. People are living longer and this is having a tremendous impact on our economy.”
One of the biggest challenges is the high property taxes in the Northeast. But Gottlieb said the Northeast produces a much higher rate of college graduates, which can potentially lead to higher paying jobs. He said that when he took his current position with the county in 2009, he trademarked it as the “Intellectual Capital of New York State.”
“There is a notion that Westchester County can just grab businesses from the South, but that’s not going to happen because of the type of jobs we have up here,” Gottlieb said. “We pay higher taxes because we want great schools to create smart kids. We need to look at how competitive Westchester County can be given those conditions.”
The biggest challenge facing Westchester, according to Gottlieb, is retaining the young people who grow up here. Gottlieb said that the recession has made that more difficult because, unlike previous recessions, this one has gone on longer.
“We need to keep our youth interested and employable,” Gottlieb said. “I’m saying this not to depress anybody but to arm students with the facts on the job market.” | http://mtkisco.dailyvoice.com/news/expert-westchester-job-market-tough-grads | 2013-05-18T10:31:17 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Juan José Bigas Luna (19 March 1946 – 6 April 2013) was a Spanish film director.
He began his professional career in the design world, creating the Estudio Gris with Carlos Riart in 1969. In his earlier exhibitions, at the beginning of the 1960s, (1992), Huevos de Oro (1993) and La teta y la luna (1994). Subsequently, with the short film for internet Collar de Moscas (2001), he revived his interest in avant-garde experimentation and audiovisual… read more
The taste of the ham
An intriguing film by Bigas Lunas once again addresses the issue of human sexuality, this time from a more intimate and familiar looking. The first roles of Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem show that the main pillars of the film. In the end, it turns how to be a cult movie. | http://mubi.com/films/jamon-jamon | 2013-05-18T10:34:27 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
No matter how many times I give it a chance, The Big Lebowski angers me beyond most films. I just really hate watching it. I think what enrages me most is that it’s not a badly made movie. I can’t really pick anything out of the cinematography or directing that I hate, but I think the story is incredibly dumb and pointless. I don’t find it funny or cute or even amusing. I can see why people love it and I understand why it is the way it is, but I personally find it torture to sit through. I think it’s a very particular comedy made for a very select audience, I just don’t happen to be one of them. | http://mubi.com/films/the-big-lebowski/reviews/20977 | 2013-05-18T10:13:42 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

I find these awkward but let’s give this a shot. I’ve seen a lot a films but I need to see a lot more. There’s plenty of essentials I still need to see though I’m equally interested in finding obscure titles and appreciating less conventional choices.
Right now it’s kind of a free for all, I throw films on my favorites pretty quickly. When I get up to 1,000 favorites I’ll cut it down to a concise top 100 or even a top 50 but for right now its open season.
I follow everyone who follows me.

Fucking News and Jews in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• An intern (pictured above) who had sex with New York Knicks star Stephon Marbury is slated to testify in the sexual harassment suit aimed at the team and Isiah Thomas (see Essay 4484). The intern will probably admit the sex was consensual. Meanwhile, a Madison Square Garden executive testified that accuser Anucha Browne Sanders routinely used a lot of the same language she blasted Thomas for spewing. She allegedly referred to various team executives as “fucking bitch,” “fucking pussy” and “fucking buffoon.” Which are the nicknames fans designate for various Knicks starters.
• Google blocked an attempt to trademark “JewTube,” arguing the name is too close to their video site YouTube. A group that organizes events for Jewish singles sought to secure the name. Their back-up options probably include “Jewgle.”

Obama's Health Care Plan
"Obama will make available a new national health plan which will give"Obama..." [Obama for America]
Some additional commentary
I have no idea what to think about health care.
Some people can't afford, or will refuse to pay for, health insurance. If we are unwilling to let them die, or suffer huge debt and then jail them for it (a rather perverse policy: "You! Sick guy! Pay or go to jail!"), then SOME form of "care of last resort" option has to be available, paid for by the public (i.e., taxpayers). Right now we do this through emergency rooms, and make hospitals go bankrupt.
If an accused criminal can't afford an attorney, we appoint one. If a possibly gravely ill person can't afford a doctor, we....what?
What is Obama's answer? I want to know.
(Nod to KL, who has other questions, too)

Yet another PupDrive oddity. This is the first I`ve seen of this one.
Clicking the sda1 icon gets 3 ROXs, but the sda3 icon gives a normal 1 ROX.
Any ideas how to fix it?
==============
I don`t care for the partition icons on the desktop.
I made a nice drive partition manager GUI once.
I have an idea for a slide-out transparent panel to replace Puppy`s drive icons.
It would look like the current drive icons when it was slid-out.
Would any one be interested in developing it?

I had exactly the same happen to me with Akita, but it has stopped with the latest release (Beta 13).
Clicking on sda3 brought up 3 windows, two showing 'initrd_save', and one with 'home' (Frugal install with Akita on sda3).
I was beginning to think it was just me....

The problem has become academic, the PentiumD PC is overheating due to a bad fan.
Fan`s are pretty much made for the heatsink, so finding a replacement is farfetched.
So I`m back to my piece of crap Celeron PC.
It has the same HD but it doesn`t do the 3 ROX-Filers thing ( weird ).
This goes along with what I`ve said about Puppy`s behavior and hardware.
RHS; For Puppy JWM has panels, but I don`t think they can be transparent.
Plus it would be nice if it worked in any WM on any Linux O.S.
I`ve looked for a good panel over the years but I`ve never found what I want.
LXE ( I think ) has a panel I`ve never looked at, might be worth a look.
It`s size and it`s libs. sizes are important of course.
Xfce has a transparent panel I think, might be good also.
Other than finding a ready-to-go usable panel, BaCon is probably a good choice.
I`m too busy with the AppPkg builder to start something else.
RSH; Let me know what you think, maybe check out some existing panels.

If the overheating is in a laptop, I wanted to pass along that I worked on an ACER laptop that was overheating.
It turned out to be a solid block of accumulated lint that was blocking the exhaust port path for the processor.
I did a major cleanup of the fan, path, and heatsink and the laptop is again working correctly.
As to the drive icon and rox problem, I have to ask what version of Puppy/Linux you were using.

When I was trialling Sheepy's slimpup he mentioned that he has set all his windows to 1 pixel less than the width of his screen so that it is possible to put the mouse at the edge of the screen and right click and get special functions (like desktop switching / programme switching etc) and I thought maybe that could be one way to access a drive icon panel (I never liked autohide panels because they pop out when you don't want them)

Code:
rox . ~ /
The line above will open 3 filers -
intentionally
.
Try to see if there might be a leftover command in the icon when you right-click the sda1 icon and open the "edit" sub-menu. Maybe there's some left-over command on the second line. Or in the first line, if there's an sh script instead of a straight "rox" command. That could explain it.

greengeek; I had the idea of thin colored bars along the sides of the screen.
2 to 4 of them would fit easily on any of the sides.
Color helps identify things, like I always thought windows should be colored.
Hovering over them for 1/3 to 1/2 second would slide it`s panel out.
A panel for drive management, and another for the task bar, both at the left.
The task bar being vertical allows it to show many more tasks easily.
A third one for the main menu and the desktop is clean of all icons and clutter!
The side-out panels could be up to full height or width of the screen.
Example below: Red`s drive manager side-out, grey`s task bar, and tan`s menu.

Yes, I like the idea of the drag out bars. They wouldn't take up too much real estate (especially on small netbook screens). Nice idea.

Not so much "drag-out" but more "hover-over and slide-out".
But I`m sure you understood the concept greengeek.

Kenia, who single-handedly defined the essence of heavenly, pop accented Brazilian jazz in the 1980s and '90s, returns with an album that surpasses all expectations. With the release of Simply Kenia, the singer confidently reasserts her position as one of the reigning queens of Brazilian music. Simply Kenia. Simply Kenia features 15 tracks that are custom tailored for Kenia's trademark seductive style, amber-toned voice and impeccable phrasing. Reflecting her affection for Brazil's best tunesmiths, the singer includes works by such renowned composers as Jair De Oliveira, Gilson Peranzzetta and Joao Bosco. She transforms Djavan's Aviao into Being Cool, with English lyrics by Lorraine Feather. Her take on two timeless North American standards, Willie Nelson's Crazy and Matt Dennis' immortal Angel Eyes, defines romantic balladry at its most sensuous. As a special bonus, Crazy is rendered in English, Portuguese and Spanish versions. The album is also noteworthy as Kenia's first foray as a vocalist into the world of choro, an elemental, pre-samba Brazilian style that was the rage in Rio in the early 20th Century and has recently undergone a long overdue renaissance. It didn't take long after she arrived in the U.S. in 1980 that Kenia made an impact on the Brazilian jazz scene. In 1984, she was featured on Red on Red, the U.S. debut by a fellow Carioca, trumpet star Claudio Roditi. Produced by recording industry legend Creed Taylor, the album established Kenia as the new Brazilian voice in the U.S. market and opened the door for festival bookings and guest appearances with a wide range of artists, including James Taylor, Justo Almario and Jonathan Butler. She also launched her solo recording career, producing four popular and critically acclaimed albums for the MCA and Denon labels between 1987 and 1991. The albums were noted for their winning mixture of tracks by such diverse North American composers as Stevie Wonder (Creepin') and Harold Arlen (Somewhere Over The Rainbow) as well as the latest creations by Brazil's best contemporary songwriters, including Djavan (Flor De Lis), Toninho Horta (Distant Horizon). Their catchy arrangements, slick production values and heartfelt performances made the releases a perfect match for the emerging Adult Contemporary Jazz (Smooth Jazz) format on FM radio. Kenia not only become one of the new broadcasting genre's biggest stars; she also established herself as one of the most popular and successful U.S. based Brazilian musicians since the heyday of Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66. Other artistic triumphs were to quickly follow. In 1992, she lent her composing skills and voice to the soundtrack of The Devil's Toothpick, a music film produced by Creed Taylor that featured guitarist Lubambo, saxophonist Donald Harrison, and Brazil's current Minister of Culture, singer Gilberto Gil. In 1997, Kenia launched her own label, Mooka Records, with a particularly ambitious effort; Project Ivan Lins, a tribute to the one of Brazil's most prolific and popular contemporary songwriters, featuring Lins himself as a special guest..

My husband has a background in film and video and ever since I began working on my "collection" of figurative work he's been bugging me to do an animation project with him incorporating the figurines and their distopic world. Needless to say due to lack of time and finances we've yet to get the project going. And then what do I stumble upon but an amazing animation by the artist Barnaby Branford (whose work I totally love) and I realize that maybe I shouldn't bother after all, since this animation is so awesome.
Anyway, find 10 minutes of your life to check out Damaged Goods by Barnaby Branford, it's just to sweet to miss.
And here's a bit about Barnaby:
".
Barnaby Barford graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2002. He has been the subject of several solo exhibitions in the UK, and has shown in major exhibitions in the US and Japan. In 2004 he was named Young Designer of the Year by Wallpaper* magazine.
As well as creating his one-off pieces, Barford has made projection based installations, worked with prestigious companies including Nymphenburg and has designed products for Thorsten Van Elten."

Thanks for this wonderful post. I love Barnaby's work and I found that the interview at the same link very worthwhile. Highly recommended for a new look at the world of ceramics
Beautiful work ! I love the circus people. Thank you for the post. I'm sure your sculptures would look amazing animated and on film !
Thanks for sharing that, Carole! I don't expect you'll be in Calgary for 1K Away?
s
Thanks everyone!
Steve - I'm hoping, but finances are pretty tight round here right now. Got to ship a bunch of work to clay and glass this month and that's chewing through my bank account. I'll be sooo jealous though if i can't make it!!!
It's just occurred to me that I've seen your fantastic work exhibited at Art Central in Calgary. I must have spent an hour in that gallery, musing over all the lovely gory creations you had. Like the 'Love is...' dolls with a strong sense of realism.
*bows* You are have incredible talent. | http://musingaboutmud.blogspot.com/2009/09/ceramic-animation-and-missed.html | 2013-05-18T10:53:01 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Just two down this week. One was the eponymous Jeremy Clarkson book, a collection of his humorous columns from The Sunday Times. It was my second reading but I enjoyed it just as much this time round. He is blisteringly no-nonsense, sinking his teeth into anyone he reckons deserves it, and flicking the ol' V at political correctness for good measure. It's like Notes from a Big Country in some ways - amusing, observant and self-deprecating. The second book finished this week was the scrumptious Strawberry Shortcake Murder by Joanne Fluke, a fluffy concoction involving a couple of murders, a dessert contest, a handsome detective, strawberry shortcake, a bit of blackmail, cookies and a cat called Moishe. Lovely. Reviews can be found in my archive (the tab's at the top of the page), as always...
I'm currently reading:
THE TEASER
"In schools, men's dominance in the academic hierarchy, teachers' stereotypical attitudes and peer pressure subtly connect femininity with interpersonal skills and caring roles, and masculinity with scientific, leadership roles. Girls are seen as bright and academic but are channelled into arts, humanities and languages, and away from science and computing."
THE TEASER
"When you mention, casually and perhaps over coffee, that you made jam last weekend, the question will not be 'Does it taste wonderful?' but 'Did it set?' The British jam-maker is obsessed with getting their jam so stiff you could turn the jar upside down and the contents would stay put. The rest of Europe makes jam that slides sexily off the mound of clotted cream and dribbles down the edge of the scone (an exquisite moment if ever there was one). We make jam that sits prim and straight, like a Victorian child at Sunday school."
THE TEASER
."
Now that's a question. As usual, these are mere whispers on the winds of fancy, but I'll lay them out anyway! First up is the question of my Halloween reading; I have a few titles in mind, but I don't know how many I'll read, or which ones I'll choose, or in which order. The list includes various paranormal/romance series openers (Ill Wind by Rachel Caine, Stray by Rachel Vincent, Dark Lover by J.R. Ward) as well as The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins, The Woman in Black by Susan Hill, The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux and Carrie by Stephen King. As for any other reading... no idea. I have so many books piled up all around me right now that I'm just going to reach out and grab something when the time comes!
Ooh I would recommend picking up Stray it may be a tad chunky but it really is an awesome series :D
*pokes* I may keep poking you until you read it, and Jess as well for that matter cos she's taking her sweet time in getting round to it :P xx
I'll bear that in mind! I'll definitely be reading something a tad lighter after 'Frankenstein' anyway, before I go back to the classic spookiness! Now, go poke Jess, make her read it too... ;-) | http://musingsofabookshopgirl.blogspot.com/2010/09/projected-forecast-10.html | 2013-05-18T10:32:05 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

7/15 Cubs lineup
Ryan Dempster starts Friday for the Cubs, his first game since his early exit against the Pirates. Dempster didn’t agree with Mike Quade’s decision to pull him after 87 pitches over five innings last Saturday. Quade said the two have talked and the manager was able to explain his reasons. Let’s see what happens at Wrigley Field on Friday vs. the Marlins. Here’s the lineup:
RF Fukudome
SS Castro
3B Ramirez
1B Pena
CF Byrd
C Soto
LF Soriano
2B Barney
P Dempster
– Carrie Muskat. | http://muskat.mlblogs.com/2011/07/15/715-cubs-lineup/?like=1&source=post_flair&_wpnonce=e9ecfe8d49 | 2013-05-18T10:31:33 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
6/16 Extra bases & lineup
* Jeff Samardzija enters Saturday’s night game riding a four-game hitting streak, and he’s driven in a run in three of his last four starts. He’s the first Cubs pitcher with a four-game hitting streak since Carlos Zambrano, who also hit in four straight, July 22-Aug. 6, last season. As far as pitching goes, Samardzija was 2-0 with a 1.03 ERA in four starts from April 24-May 13 but is just 1-3 with a 5.59 ERA in his last five starts.
* Lefty Jon Lester starts for the Red Sox Saturday. The Cubs are batting .222 against left-handed pitching, third lowest in the NL, and they have a 3-13 record against left-handed starters.
* The Cubs have 51 stolen bases this season, third-most in the NL. Last year, they had 32 before the All-Star break. Only the Marlins (63) and Padres (56) have more steals.
* Saturday’s lineup:
Johnson RF
Barney 2B
Castro SS
Soriano LF
Baker 1B
Mather CF
Castillo C
Valbuena 3B
Samardzija P
* Ryan Dempster now has a 22 scoreless innings streak, longest by a Cubs pitcher since Big Z also had a 22 inning stretch in May 2004. According to Elias Sports Bureau, Dempster is the first Cubs starter to deliver three straight outings of at least seven shutout innings since Ken Holtzman threw three straight shutous in May 1969.
* Friday’s win, in which the Cubs made three errors, marked the first time they have shutout their opponent despite three errors in 47 years. The last time was July 11, 1965, when they blanked the Cardinals, 6-0, in the first game of a doubleheader.
* Note: The Red Sox scratched Josh Beckett from Sunday’s game, and Franklin Morales will start in his place.

You turn your back, and hide your face
you sit there smiling, and move with grace,
inside your fighting, fighting to smile,
while you pretend its nothing serious or vile.
The sun goes down, and I see your tears,
they all go and I see your fears
head in hands, legs shaking,
deep down, inside you're breaking.
I get my glue and scissors at the ready,
but you claim everything good and steady,
he screams and shouts, but you take it in,
while each day you get more and more thin.
I keep clear, head screwed on tight,
ignoring pain and worry with all my might,
waiting for the sun is when I cry,
head in pillow; I won't lie.
Tears flow down, and they won't stop,
for all things bad, and those good I didnt adopt
the door opens, and I bury my head,
still not strong, after all done and said. | http://muslimonline.org/forum/lofiversion/index.php?t6547.html | 2013-05-18T11:01:49 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Before:
And after (better but look at that filthy mane!):
Today I checked his weight and height, with no halter or anything. He did really well with the weight tape. Took off the first time when I tightened it up, but the second and third times he stood for it. He's just about 950 lbs. Then I checked his height, as accurately as I could, which isn't very... I came up with 15 hands. My sister came by later, she hasn't seen him in a long time. She said he looked more like 14.3 to her. One inch difference, and how accurate is an eyeball guess... she could be right but does it really matter?
Tried his new splint boots on him, and apparently he has really short cannon bones... The mediums don't fit right! I can scoot them down a bit, and they will still work, I think. Will have to try it and see what happens. HOWEVER, I finally got a chance to ask my vet what type of splint boots he recommends for this specific situation (pigeon toed, previous splints) and he said Professional's Choice SMBs. Which is NOT what I bought... But then he also said only use them when he's working hard, doing maneuvering or circle work. So I think these ones will work at least until he goes away to training. If I test them out and they seem to work fine, maybe I won't get the SMBs.
Oh, by the way, Tonka tried on his splint boots without a halter too, even though at first he was skeptical. He wasn't very nice to my sister though, kept pinning his ears at her. Not in an "I'm going to eat you" sort of way, just more like, "Let's see if I can get away with this." They're all acting weird though, the girls are in heat and he's acting like a boy, and they're just flighty and odd. Danni followed my sister around, kept going up and resting her head against her. It was very sweet. I was a bit jealous because she never does that to me, but then she did. She must just be feeling weird. Soxy was more lovey than usual today too. I thought it was just because she was waiting for her turn to be brushed, but who knows. | http://mustangsaga.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html | 2013-05-18T11:02:39 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

June 2011
After getting off Skype with mom, I started crying. I’ve seen this single wide as a casket before. For the first time I saw it as a crib. The lines on the walls are not unlike the bars on a crib. I guess, I felt like an infant then. I’m afraid to move up there. I feel more like an adult away from her. In addition to the whole undertaking being overwhelming. I would feel better...
dreams
We were driving along the freeway (a one or 2 lane highway)…we were at high elevation over a mtn range, going to “magic mountain”. Talk about an Uncanny Valley. then. In the dream, i woke up in the middle of the dusty road, car at the very limit before falling off of the road. . We’re almost over the hill…lets see what’s on the other side. On the other...
Mothernature.com
Here’s why mothernature.com is Not a green company. I realize that the reasons are that perhaps the co. Doesn’t have enough money, or something. Two, no, three reasons I can see for this are: first, they will use multiple shipments for faster delivery, whether you like it or not. Second, before i know who the box is from, I notice that the mailing box has one of those annoying...
Perfume
Sprayed on some Fresh Lavender by Avon circa 1999. Gotta use this stuff up. Now I have a big headache. Also grabbed a new lip balm—2 left in the cabinet, now I’m closer to gettingmyself a vegan, chem-free lip balm :)
1 tag
I think the bladder thing is about over, I went (but not at full force) once yesterday while doing dishes, after plenty of warning. And today: so far, so good. I got up early e And have been taking ccare of business. Ps. THEN due to incomplete emptying, I had to change clothes 3x.in 1 or 2 hrs.
Having a passionate few days.
cycle day 16-17
The stove.
No, this good. It’s assertiveness training. And like I said, it’s good to have someone here. I wish I could remember if she said she cleaned the stove. If she did, she lied. And don’t make insinuations with me because even if I get it (and, I’m starting to get ‘rm)…I probably epnt dignify it with an answer. So she’s talkingabout vegans. Oh, I could...
MS is curing my OCD.

A Newport, Maine man was sentenced to two months in prison for being part of a scam that enlisted Maine residents to marry illegal immigrants so they could become American citizens more easily.
Jason Neas, 26, also was sentenced to a year of supervised release after he completes his prison term.
In addition to prison time, U.S. District Judge John Woodcock ordered Neas to pay a $2,000 fine and to begin serving his sentence Friday.
He was a small cog in what became the state’s first sham marriage conspiracy, which included more than two dozen Mainers. Neas waived indictment and pleaded guilty last August to conspiracy to defraud the United States. He has been free on bail since then.
Neas married a Kenyan national on Oct. 16, 2006, according to the prosecution version of events to which he pleaded guilty. Neas was paid $800 after the wedding ceremony on a lakeshore in Newport.
After the wedding, Neas and his wife never lived together, according to court documents. Twice in 2007, Neas traveled to Massachusetts.
Once, he met with the Kenyan woman’s attorney and signed immigration forms and the second time he was interviewed by staff with the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Service, according to the prosecution’s version of events. As a result, the woman was granted conditional residency in the U.S. and Neas was paid an additional $800.
Neas was recruited to marry the Kenyan woman by the Kenyan man who had married Neas’ current live-in girlfriend, Kelly Rider, in 2005, when she was just 18. Rider was lured into the scam by the Roy family, who have been described in court documents as her neighbors.
Rider, now 25 and the mother of two children ages 6 and 14 months with Neas, was sentenced a year ago to one year of probation and ordered to pay a $300 fine.
The Roy family was part of a conspiracy federal prosecutors claimed was run by two African men. Rashid Kakande, 38, of Woburn, Mass., was sentenced last year to two years in federal prison after being convicted by a jury of arranging at least 18 marriages in Maine. Originally from Uganda, Kakande and James Mbugua were indicted in July 2010 by a federal grand jury. Mbugua, 51, of Springfield, Mass., and a native of Kenya, disappeared later that year and is considered a fugitive by the court.
June Roy White, 57, who recruited Rider, was sentenced to three months in federal prison, the same amount of time that her husband, Albert White, 49, of Newport, was sentenced.
Two of White’s daughters also were sentenced to prison time for their roles in the conspiracy.
Torri Roy Patterson, 33, of Lewiston is scheduled to begin serving a six-month sentence last year. Angela Roy, 37, of Sabattus was sentenced to 10 months.
Members of the Roy family and Rider testified against Kakande.
Neas and Rider faced up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

SI The Joker, on 23 March 2012 - 08:16 AM, said:
Agreed there. People wanting to do intricate aerobatics or martial arts moves while in flight and such should probably go find themselves a game more akin to Gundam MS. There you can get all that, together with *cough* slightly *cough* metrosexual characters, and a generally more anime-like design. Jump jets in BT/MW were never meant for things like that. Let me quote Sarna.Net here:
"[...]A far cry from flight, jump jets nevertheless allow a 'Mech to make short leaps sufficient enough to outmaneuver 'Mechs not similarly equipped or bypass obstacles and unfavorable terrain[...]"
And I personally don't care if somone now comes into the thread with a good old swagger, rambunctiously proclaiming that canon etc. doesn't matter. For some of us it does, as opposed to some random console dweeb, and if BT/MW canon were that irrelevant, people could just go and join up with "Hello Kitty Online" and pester the devs there to implement mecha, right?
Mason Ventris, on 23 March 2012 - 10:10 PM, said:
Not good enough, sorry. (For me, that is. YMMV) If only ""more difficult [...] to poptart" is all that is achieved, I'll pass on that attempt. I am well aware that the screwy MW4 managed to **** up that one as well as many other things, but unless there's a semantic misconception here, no thanks. I can't really support in good faith a technique that exploited the quite mediocre game design of MW4 to create the "Mad Poptarting Disease".
I'd like to have the successful in-flight shots to be as rare as in the TT, and not like in the sub-standard MW4 game (which for me is still by far the worst of the whole series). And by "poptarting" you imply it would be useable on a regular basis still, just with increased difficulty. That's an outlook that would probably make me quit MWO pretty fast if it happens, and I'm confident I'm not the only one. Poptarting ruined MW4 multiplayer for quite a few people (among other shortcomings) who then turned their back on it for good and thus PGI would be well advised to curbstomp any attempt to make it viable again.

). What always amazes me, year after year, is not how many people participate, or how much terrific work gets done. What is really wonderful is the kind, friendly, and extremely generous spirit in which everything is given. Thank you for that, too.
Keep checking this space as we add pictures and stories! In the meantime, thanks so much again, and hope to see you again soon!
As always,

We’re all consumers’ right? Each of us visits different websites on a daily basis. The question is, with so many online options competing for your time and attention, how much time are you going to spend chasing down information? How long will you wait before giving up and moving on? My guess is, not much. Neither will your customers.

If it's crap ... We'll tell you
Of the umpteen billion Dracula projects in the works, one that really grabbed our attention a few weeks ago was 'The Last Voyage of the Demeter.' The Millennium Films project, that had previously done a little studio jumping, follows the crew of the doomed ship that carried Count Dracula's coffin from Europe to America. Specifically, it grabbed our attention because the film will be directed by Neil Marshall ('The Descent'). Today an interesting casting rumor has surfaced. It seems Viggo Mortensen ('The Road,' 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy) has been offered the role of Henry Clemens, one of the film's leads. Furthermore, it looks as if Sir Ben Kingsley is still attached to play the captain of The Demeter, as he was when the project was with another studio. No word yet as to whether Noomi Rapace is still on board.
I'm still not sure how to feel about this flick. As a horror fan, obviously I'm a proponent of Count Dracula, and I'm a big fan of Neil Marshall, but the scope of this particular film feels incredibly small. It's a few months in Drac's overall story and most of the action will take place on one ship? Doesn't seem to afford much opportunity for set pieces or room to explore. That being said, Viggo Mortensen is an actor who fascinates me and I'm happy to see he's being pursued for the film. I'm sorry to say I don't remember the specifics about the Demeter's voyage enough to remember how Henry Clemens fits in. I'm also surprised to see that Kingsley is still being listed as attached even though it has been years since the last time the film was a go. My guess is that tenuous attachment will be severed before too long, but I could be wrong.
What do you guys think? Are you more/less interested in this film now that Mortensen is aboard? Do you think they'll still land Kingsley?

Like the concept. Movie based on the boat that carried the count through the rough seas of the Atlantic, Yeah, Why Not?
Damn, and here I thought Viggo would be playing Dracula.
I think a better idea was to do a movie on Renfield and see how he came to be in the asylum. Hopefully this will wash the taste of Twilight out of my mouth.
I think this is a great idea for a film, so long as they keep the focus on the crew, rather than Dracula. If I remember correctly, none of them ever meet or talk with the Count, and they just see spectral visions beckoning to them before they disappear. Could be really cool if they focus on the cramped and claustrophobic elements of living on a ship, though!
Awesome.
This is actually shaping up to be fascinating. Personally, I want a real surprise for Dracula - someone unexpected who nails it, like ol' Heath and the Joker. As long as it's nobody absolutely atrocious, I'm going to be nothing but optimistic about Dracula's casting, and hope for the best. We need a good on-screen modern Dracula.
This sounds really interesting to me, especially now that Viggo Mortensen may be playing a lead role. While the small setting does limit things, it could result in them doing new and original things with the concept.

My childhood friend and fellow blogger Leah tweeted this amazing link to me, and I HAD to jump on it! All you have to pay is shipping and handling. Mine cost $10, so I thought it was worth it to try a few new polishes.
My nail polish collection is a little sad right now.
Did anyone else throw out all of their glitter nail polish before college because "Oh, I'll never, ever wear this again"??? Yeah, worst mistake ever!
These are the three polishes I chose, I am so excited to get them!

Hey y’ulle. I’ve noticed a lot of people talking about this thing called ‘Global Warming’ lately. They also talk about ‘sustainability‘ and ‘going green‘. Apparently it’s all because of some consumer fad called ‘Recycling‘. I read on some trend blog that Recycling is the 80s Shoulder Pad Fad reinterpreted. Not sure I should buy into it. My personal brand says I should stick to trends and ignore fads.
“You a fad / that means it somethin’ that we already had / but once you gone / you don’t come back” – Dr Dre featured in Eminem’s Anthem for a Generation “Encore”
I just did some research and according to The Diesel Global World Report, Global Warming is gonna be rad. Diesel has paid an artist to render their findings so that you can better get an idea of what will happen when Global Warming hits. These are the results:
Can't wait for the ice caps to melt.
Gonna go make a nest on a building.
Can't wait for the endless summer.
Not sure what everyone’s on about. Just looks like the world will eventually become one big beach, which is what we’ve all been working for, anyway. Also, I heard at some blog party that all the ‘green this, green that’ is just a viral campaign for Hyperrama. Nice one. They’ll probably win a Loerie Grand Eagle Prix for it.
Guess I don’t want to be completely out of what’s in, you know? I’ve been thinking about how I can tastefully incorporate this new socially-aware movement into my life so it makes me look like a person who is ‘responsible, enlightened and aware‘. Maybe I should get some hemp socks from Woolworths or some Hemp Hand Cream from the Body Shop and just tell myself that the tube isn’t made of lead. Maybe I can preach to my friends but just ignore the fact that I drive a Hummer. Like I said, don’t want to get too into this fad coz it’s about to tip mainstream any minute now, like pencil skirts. | http://mybrandedlife.wordpress.com/tag/green/ | 2013-05-18T10:21:57 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

This is turning into one of those projects where I can't keep everything I need in the same place at the same time. I've got the pattern...I've got the floss...I've got the Frixion pen I'm hoping to use...I've got a flashlight so I can use my glass topped table as a lights box...I've found my Q-Snaps...and I've got my fingers crossed that I'll remember where I put the fabric.
I really do want to get started on this while I'm in such a sitting on the couch wasting time mood. Maybe it'll make me more productive. Or not.

I'm going to start on this quilt too...a little later in the year. Love it! I saw an alternative layout that I liked on another blog. Don't have the link handy, but I could find it if you're interested.
Cute stuff! If it works on the nonproductive sit on the couch let me know. I try to bind quilts but it's getting too hot for that. I also have a basket of yo yo's that I make in the heat of summer.
LOVE that quilt - do you have a box you can keep everything in while you work on it??
I have this pattern too. Just found a piece of glass to use for my light box, now maybe I'll get to it | http://mychellem.blogspot.com/2012/05/design-wall-monday-hocuspocusville.html | 2013-05-18T10:31:14 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

MEIGS COUNTY — Three people are in custody following a homicide on Wednesday night at the Meigs Motel just off Ohio 7 near Pomeroy.
According to Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood, Wallace R. Chafin, 57, of Meigs County was found dead at the Meigs Motel in the early morning hours of May 9. Chafin was a guest at the motel.
Wood stated that Ryan A. Cozart, Sara J. Craig and Ariel R. Smith, have been arrested in connection with the case.
Cozart, 32, of Racine, has been charged with murder; Craig, 33, and Smith, 22, both of Portland are charged with complicity to commit murder.
According to assistant Meigs County Prosecutor Amanda Bizub-Franzmann, Cozart, Craig and Smith will be formally charged at 11 a.m. on Friday in Meigs County Court.
Officers with the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office responded to a disturbance call at 12:15 a.m. on Thursday morning at the motel. Upon arrival, the officers found evidence of an altercation and a homicide.
Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood stated that officials with his office, the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation and the Meigs County Coroner were on scene early Thursday at the Meigs Motel.
Cozart and Craig were arrested early Thursday morning after returning to the crime scene in the victim’s car. Smith was arrested at a home on Durst Road in Portland, Ohio.
Craig had been on house arrest while facing charges in a meth case in Meigs County Common Pleas Court. According to investigators, Craig cut her house arrest bracelet and left her home.
The three suspects are currently at the Middleport Jail awaiting arraignment as the investigation continues.
The victim’s body has been sent to the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office for an autopsy.
At this time, investigators are not releasing details as to the cause of Chafin’s death. | http://mydailyregister.com/pages/home/push?per_page=5&class=next_page&rel=next&x_page=5 | 2013-05-18T10:21:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Progeo Monitoring in Nashville, Tn is a leading national provider of Electric testing for roofing and waterproofing. This method is usually specified in new construction for membrane roofing under the term EFVM. We call our service Smartex EVM but the method of testing is the same as Electric Field Vector Mapping.
By using this low voltage technology, Progeo technicians can locate tiny leaks in the roofing that may become big leaks over time. The process allows the roofing contractor to make immediate repairs that we can test immediately for Quality Assurance.
This method is also much more effective than infrared analysis as it can pinpoint the ingress which may now be visually available.

baptism
Stage directions
The scene is set - a youth group is sat there - in walks the good natured but slightly out of touch and doddery old-ish vicar.. he's wearing a baseball cap sideways..
The sketch
Vicar - Hi there funky chickens, I've come to get down with you all..
Silence..
Vicar - OK then youngsters, I've come to talk about baptism - and not just the teenage lads who need to shower..
Silence..
Vicar - OK then, let's make a start. What is baptism?
Silence.. then..
Ryan - Isn't it where we chuck someone in water and laugh at them getting wet?
Vicar - Good point young man but we normally don't throw people in to get them wet
Ryan - Well why do we throw them in then?
Vicar - We don't throw people in at all. They volunteer.
Ryan - OK. I volunteer..
Vicar - (Nervously). Well, it's not quite like that. You have to be told it's the right thing.
Ryan - I have been told it's the right thing. Chris told me earlier
Vicar - No I mean you have to hear from God. Maybe through one of your 'cool' new Christian worship bands like Graham Kendrick..
Ryan - (Genuinely doesn't know). Who?
Vicar - (Moves on). And can anyone think of why we should get baptised?
(Silence.. then Ryan puts up his hand).
Ryan - Yes, I can. To clean my clothes! Would I need to bring along Aerial Ultra - cos then I'd be baptised not nearly white, but really white!
Vicar - (Slightly unsure if Ryan is joking). No, I don't think you'd need to bring soap powder along..
Ryan - (Pause). What about shower gel?
Vicar - Not that either.
Ryan - (interrupts). Deodorant?
Vicar - No.
Ryan (interrupts). A rubber duck? Arm bands? A wet suit?
Vicar - No, no, no! Think a bit more spiritually young man..
Ryan - OK.. what about a waterproof Bible?
Vicar - Yes, well that would be a start. I remember when I got baptised..
Ryan - You remember that far back? You must have a good memory. Was that before World War One or after?
Vicar - (lost in thought). It was a wonderful day. The church bells were ringing..
Ryan - (interrupts). Were the Germans invading?
Vicar - (carries on oblivious). Ah those were the days. The whole village was there
Ryan - Why, how much did you pay them?
Vicar - It was a day of commitment. A day I'll never forget..
Ryan - What was the date?
Vicar - Ooohh, I don't remember.. oh dear..
Point
What is baptism? Is baptism a day to be remembered? Why? Do we need to be baptised? When should we be baptised? Can children be baptised? (Acts 10 and Acts 16) Can young children make the kinds of decisions that baptism requires? What do you think it means to be 'baptised in the Spirit'? Do you agree with this? Have you been baptised? What happened next? Do you think you should be baptised? Do you fulfill the conditions? | http://myfishbites.com/sketches-baptism.php | 2013-05-18T11:03:14 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Listing Specialist
There are several thousand real estate agents in Northeast Florida. It is a common misconception that they are all alike for the most part. Just as in any profession, real estate agents vary in their experience, skills and focus. We firmly believe that when selling Jacksonville real estate it is imperative that you hire a Real Estate Consultant who specializes in marketing real estate.
The fact is that the vast majority of agents rely on their ‘brand name brokerage’ to provide them the tools needed to market and sell. The problem with this is that no two houses are alike and certainly no two real estate markets are alike. So, does it make sense to think that a generic marketing plan is going to work in selling every listing? Of course not.
As an Accredited Consultant in Real Estate, Tim Fennell will work with you to develop a marketing plan – a strategy – to get your particular house sold. The days of sticking a sign in the yard, putting the listing info in the MLS and making flyers to hand out at open houses are a bygone relic of the past.
Tim spends countless hours studying the market AND studying new and better methods for getting different types of listings in front of the specific buyers most likely to purchase each one. He concentrates on target marketing for maximum exposure to the right audience.
As a listing specialist, Tim’s practice is rather exclusive. Not exclusive in terms of the value of the houses he markets but in the salability of the houses. He has 7 Key Requirements that must be met before he agrees to take on a new listing client. If any one of these key requirements are missing, he will not waste the seller’s time by sticking a sign in the yard and “hoping for the best.”
No… he carefully assesses each situation; each house, each seller to determine if there is a high enough probability of finding a buyer willing and able to pay market value in a reasonable amount of time.
If you have wasted weeks or months by listing your house with a generic real estate sales agent, make a change today. Call Tim for a free, no-obligation consultation.
He will help you understand:
- Why your house did not sell before.
- What is required to get your house sold quickly and for top dollar, and…
- What to expect during the marketing and sales process.
If he determines that your house is not a good candidate for selling at this time, he’ll let you know right up front.
Call Tim today at 904-568-4528. | http://myjaxhometeam.com/your-team/listing-specialist/ | 2013-05-18T10:12:14 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Another common genealogy mistake is not backing up your genealogy often enough, and in the best way!
After attending a great webinar by Thomas MacEntee this few months couple years ago my mother had a house fire which led to the destruction by smoke and water damage of the majority of the contents of her house.
A few days 4 children and one on the way, plus 2 dogs and 2 cats!
I keep my backup on a flash drive attached to my keychain in addition to having it on my hard drive.
This would be scary. Not just for genealogy files, but personal files, photos, etc. Thanks for the heads up and advice.
Both systems are set to auto backup, taking human "oh I forgot" error out of the equation. I would suggest not relying on just one solution-even a cloud provider-because even they can have failures..
I also use other methods of backup, but its more of a bit here and a bit there (ie photos at Picasa, SkyDrive for certain other files etc) and they are prone to the "I forgot" error because they arent auto backup. | http://mylinktothepast.blogspot.com/2011/03/common-genealogy-mistakes-2.html?showComment=1301063914637 | 2013-05-18T10:20:27 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Police are investigating an inmate death at the New Castle Correctional Facility Thursday.
37 year old Jeremiah K. Taylor was found at the bottom of a stairwell inside the prison.
Taylor was transported to Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis where he succumbed to his injuries Friday morning.
Investigators believe that Taylor had been beaten shortly before being found in the stairwell.
Taylor was serving eight years for convictions on a child molest charge out of Noble County and had been in prison since July 2012.
The case is still under investigation. | http://mymixfm.com/news/articles/2013/feb/16/police-investigate-death-at-state-prison/ | 2013-05-18T10:21:13 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

“It’s orchestrated,” he says, rises shooting the surface everywhere but under the fly where he wants them. Where you want them. The epicenter of the universe, a size 20 trico's footprint, the bullseye which seems impossible to hit – here now, where the day’s crescendo has worked since sunup to reach. All of that tension, released into bugs and bites, pimpling the surface worse than an adolescent's face. Pop it, he says. Pop.
…and yet you do matter, somehow -- leaving light footprints, unevenly spaced, close together on the hike out.
Nice post! Thanks for sharing those thoughts!
M.O.
M.O. - Many thanks!
Beautiful!
Kevin - Thank you!
Wonderful! And great photo.
Robin - Thanks so much for reading...and the comment!
Brilliant... as always. Thanks for sharing...
upacreek333 - Thanks for stopping by, and for the kind words.
Erin, your musical writing captures so well what it is like to fish during a prolific hatch.
Mr. P. - Many thanks! Sometimes, things that look the easiest are in reality, the most testing.
"--leaving light footprints, unevenly spaced, close together on the hike out." Love that! And that first paragraph, so concise it really POPS!
Hart - We'll be walking down to this place together soon!
Incredible photo, and description of the process (or piece).
Rhythm Rider - Thanks as always...and you of all, know about rhythms. :)
You're the only person I know of that could take a simple Trico hatch and create such an eloquent post....Very nice as always.
HighPlainsFlyFisher - Thank you! =)
Hey Erin - your tiny caenis and baetis shots get me everytime. Lovely words, I wonder what Steve Reich piece you had in mind? I was thinking Kate Bush - Eider Falls at Lake Tahoe... for the hike out.
:)
Andy
Andy - Thanks for reading...and the kind words! And I think Eider Falls would go quite well with the hike out. ;-)
I could hear the music! I've tried to play it too, the best I could with adrenaline pumping, when there are just too many notes on the staff of the stream. Nice, Erin.
Jim - I'm heartened to know it haunts you too...many thanks as always, my friend!
The music of the stream, fly rod as metronome. Lovely.
Mike - Many thanks...for reading, the comment, and the image of a metronome. In fact, that's the only way I learned to double haul...by thinking of it that way.
My diary would have just said "Blanked" but you make it seem so much more interesting ; )
Dave - It's a mental game...to help make oneself feel not so defeated. ;-)
Oh I never feel defeated Erin, its the fish's fault if they refuse my bait, I've done all that I can its down to them after that.
Its called 'passing the buck' : )
Ha! That is indeed an important distinction. ;-)
Wait, how can your rise in Colorado be the epicenter of the universe, when the boil behind my fly is that, here in New York? String theory and quantum physics are starting to make sense.
Pete - Right? My sister (PhD astrophysicist) has been trying to explain it to me for years...but I think it's finally starting to sink in... | http://mysteriesinternal.blogspot.com/2012/06/on-being-lost.html | 2013-05-18T10:31:36 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
NOTE: The dates I’m using regarding the Little Ice Age (LIA) in this series are approximate. However, all are CE.
Researchers’ conclusions regarding what happened when and where differ. Only last year was definitive proof available that the Little Ice Age had extended as far south as the Patagonian region of Chile.
Jorge Montt Glacier, Southern Patagonian ice field.
A team of scientists studied tree rings from old trees recently exposed by the retreat of the Patagonian glaciers and radiocarbon dated sample from the trees. The dating showed the trees had been iced-over between the mid 1500s and mid 1700s as part of the Little Ice Age glaciation.
The Earth is currently in an interglacial period, meaning that the last significant glacier scraped its way down from the North Pole about 14,000 years ago and receded about 10,000 years ago. In northeastern Ohio, it traveled as far south as the Canton area, where warmer temperatures caused it to melt and begin its retreat.
The Little Ice Age
At some point during the Middle Ages, glaciers began expanding and creeping southward. Radiocarbon dating of dead plants established glacial advances as early as 1275 CE.
Summers became wet and cold, causing the African Niger River to flood. Winters brought unprecedented depths of snow, even in Africa and South America.
In Europe and the Americas, torrential rainfall and cooler temperatures destroyed crops. In 1315, famine spread in Europe, causing horrific deaths, diseases and cannibalism. Additionally, the sparsity of plants drove animals to forage closer to humans, bringing their plague-infested fleas right into centers of population. The Black Death spread from Asia to the Middle East to Europe and to Africa, wiping out half of Europe’s population and significant numbers of other populations.
Famine and plagues led to social unrest across the globe, weakening the Mongol hold over China and thus enabling the Chinese to overthrow the Mongol Dynasty.
In Europe, the nobility fought desperately to extinguish the Peasant Revolt. Though the revolt failed, so many of the peasant class had died from famine and plague that the nobility were forced to work their own land with their own hands, thus weakening the feudal system.
Thames Frost Fair, 1683-84, Thomas Wyke
Londoners, though, found a way to make merry during the winter of 1683-84, a time known as “the great frost.” The Thames River froze solid and became the occasion for a Frost Fair. The ice activities, described by John Evelyn included “ . . . sleds, sliding with skeetes, a bull baiting, horse and coach races, puppet plays and interludes, cooks, tippling and other lewd places, so that it seemed to be a bacchanalian triumph, or carnival on the water.”
Evelyn duly noted the downside of “the great frost:” ”The fowls, fish and birds, and all our exotic fuliginous steam of the sea-coal . . . that one could hardly breath.”
During the time of “the great frost” on North American shores, the ice on Lake Superior didn’t melt until June. In 1780, New York Harbor froze, letting people walk from Manhattan to Staten Island.
The Caldera of Mt Tambora, island of Sumbawa, Indonesia
In 1815, Mt. Tambora erupted, further cooling the planet. In 1816, “The Year without a Summer,” Quebec had a foot of snow in June.
Postcard of Thames River, Norwich, CT, frozen in 1906
As this postcard shows, incidents in the early 20th Century bore witness to the lingering effects of the Little Ice Age.

By far, this is one of the most important and most fulfilling stories that I'll ever write. It even takes precedent over writing about my beloved Dallas Cowboys. Coincidently the special lady that I'm writing about IS a huge Cowboys fan. However for this time at least, the main focus won't be about Super Bowl Rings. Our focus today is about a deadly disease, cancer, and the lady who is helping to prevent it. May I introduce model, actress and spokeswomen, Christy Bella Joiner.
"She is one of the best people with a caring, down-to-earth and humble personality." I can certainly attest to that, especially after Christy e-mailed to me some heart-warming experiences about her life. As per Christy, it was Larry David who helped her to get involved in SU2C (Stand Up 2 Cancer). From there she started to research more and more, leading to the formation of her own team. She calls it, "Team Christy Bella". From there, Christy decided to join the "Make a Wish" foundation. This organization grants wishes to children with life-threatening diseases. She recalled one special child to me during our conversation.
This particular child requested an Autographed Modeling Picture of Christy. What stood out to her was the fact that she was the number one choice above all else. Christy stated to me, "If I had one wish and was fighting cancer as a CHILD, I would wish for something really cool like "Tinkerbell" or a DISNEY character..Why me?? What if he was not happy!" Christy told me of a solution that she came up with.
To ensure the lads jubilation, Christy sent her entire portfolio, with the exception of any sexy pics. (LOL) of course! This was despite the tremendous cost to her. What she sent included advertisements, magazines and fashion shoots. About a month later Christy received a call from the child and his mother. They were ECSTATIC with joy and appreciation! However Christy felt more like SHE should be the one to be thanking them. The gifts were sent prior to his operation, as both the mother and child touched Christy's heart and soul. They still keep in touch as the child continues to recover. No doubt that Christy's inspiration will help tremendously!
"Make a Wish Foundation has become a passion of mine just as my (Christy) endless fight against cancer. Charity work means the world to me, Stephen." Today the "Entourage" star maintains a private life, since the loss of her "hero" to prostate cancer. Christy's "hero" is her father. She has turned down offers to be in television and movies, stating that her main passions are to make a difference in the world and music, music?? Oh yeah, Christy is an accomplished Classical Pianist too. One of her most impressive credentials was being able to play Beethoven on the piano at the young age of five. She briefly stopped playing after her father's passing, but since her birthday, she recently starting playing again. Now she's playing Chopin, as no doubt her father is "orchestrating" from heaven!
In closing, Christy wrote to me, "I'm Honored to be a part of this!" So am I "Bella", so am I!
---Written by Stephen Nagy (Author of: "MY 101 Reasons to LOVE the Dallas Cowboys...()
First off, she follows me on twitter (@nagysnest)!!! Second off, she's a fan of the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment). Third off, have you ever looked at her pictorial?! If not you should, as Ciara is one of the most beautiful women to ever grace the magazine of Playboy. This Portland, Maine native seems to be destine to be a big part of the "Playboy Family" in the years to come. As a matter of fact, that is one of Ciara's goals as per her Playmate Data Sheet. So folks, do yourself a favor; when it comes time to vote, vote "CP". That's Ciara Price, however to THIS author, I like to think of those initials as a "Classy Princess" when I think of Ms. P!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"that's awesome! I love the Cowboys!".....That's what this "Southern Charmer" said to me via twitter (@nagysnest). Now living in TX, I figured that Valerie & I would get along great. It is no secret that I've always had a special place in my heart for southern girls. I believe that Miss Sept. '08 would make a great cover girl for my part two CD. Will it happen? Well stranger things have, but nonetheless I'm honored to have Ms. Mason following me. Could you imagine her in an Dallas Cowboys' Cheerleading outfit? WOW, maybe I should suggest that to her for a future pictorial? YOU THINK?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was actually surprised that Roxanne did mention the title of my book ("MY 101 Reasons to LOVE the Dallas Cowboys....") as she was doing a story on me for NEWS12NJ. The story was a featured segment called, "HIPINYOURZIP", whereas they feature a specific town in NJ. On this day (7/21) they were talking about MY town, Highland Park. I thought that my Co-Ed Softball League in Highland Park would be a great story for them to run. With the help of a friend of mine, Kathy Sweeney, both her and I sent pictures and wrote info. to NEWS12NJ about it. The piece they did on it was AWESOME! It aired I believe four or five times in the evening hours on this particular Thurs. What was really funny was that I finally found out what team Roxanne roots for, as at the end of one segment she said, as I'm paraphrasing....." (After mentioning my book title).....doesn't go down too good with THIS Steelers' fan Steve!". In closing, I would like to thank the entire NEWS12NJ station, and a BIG thanks to Roxanne Evans for the congrats on the completion of my book.
At first I was drawn to Patti's twitter account (@xnjgirl) because of her obvious interest in the NFL. Now I did know that she was a Chargers' fan from the show, "Girls Next Door". However I didn't realize that she had a rooting interest for the Eagles as well, BLAHHHHHH! Nonetheless, I felt it was my "job" to help her to realize the RIGHT team to cheer for in the NFC East, THE Dallas Cowboys. Despite my efforts to change her mind, she still "stuck to her guns". Then it occurred to me, her twitter account name, @xnjgirl. Just read it closely, it took me about five or six times to realize it too. She used to be a "Jersey Girl"!!!!!!! Therefore, I had to ask her where was she from in "The Garden State". Her reply, Cherry Hill. Now it made a little more sense why she would root for the Eagles. For those of you non-NJ residents, Cherry Hill is part of South Jersey and is about 15 mins. from Phila. Well with this piece of info. I guess I had to cut her a little bit of slack!!! In closing, I told her to talk to "Hef" about us doing one of those old "Miller Lite" commercials. Between an Eagles' & Cowboys' fan, how could you go wrong? She responded very favorable to my idea.......STAY TUNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"I'm a HUGE Colts fan."....That's what this lovely Indiana native said to me via twitter. I was curious who Stephanie was an NFL fan of after reading her twitter blog. I first wrote to her that, "If you like football, you'll LOVE me!". Now of course I was hoping she would have replied with, "Cowboys". Nonetheless I replied to her, "........I can live with that.". I was just SO glad that she didn't say, "Eagles" or "Giants". Ironically this Playboy Centerfold (June '06) now resides in DC. For that, I'm hoping that she is a CAPS fan like myself. After all, in Indiana it's all about "Re-Starting your engines", NOT hockey!!!!!!!!!
In a long line of beautiful women (Victoria Brown 2011 Hooters Dream Girl Winner, Roxanne Evans News12NJ, Corri Fetman "Sexiest lawyer in the country...featured in a Playboy Article) whom have tweeted back "The MAD Hungarian", now comes perhaps the sexiest.....Introducing Playboy Centerfold, Laura Croft!!!!!!! "hahaha yeah! Thanks!!" that was the response that Mr. Nagy got back from this sexy bombshell! It was in reference to Mr. Nagy reminding Laura how cool she looked in playing WWE Superstar's Randy Orton's wife on an episode of "Monday Night Raw".
Oh yeah!!! Eat your heart out guys! That's the famous model, Megan Dedousis on my profile picture. We actually took three pictures that night at the (Hooters Exit #9) in East Brunswick, NJ. As you can see, I did return the favor by holding the 2011 Hooters Calendar, which she is feautred in (who do you think is the girl in the middle?) Megan now lives in PA....WOW a "Phila Girl" holding MY Dallas Cowboys CD! Do I got game or what? BALLIN'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2011 Hooters Dream Girls, Victoria Brown just tweeted me back saying, "AWW Thanks so much! I am proud to be this years #hootersdreamgirl".......this was in reference to myself congratulating her on the accomplishment. I actually mentioned to her that she advanced in the first round by beating out Megan Dedousis. Megan is a girl whom I know, and have taken three pictures with at the Hooters location in East Brunswick, NJ (Hooters Exit #9). The pictures will be featured on my "Nago-Kam". You can check this and more of my tweets by following me on (@NAGYSNEST).
When you need something done, you go right to the top I say. You go to important, informative & SUCCESSFUL people. People who show respect & are willing to help the progress of their fellow man. Chris Shearn (YES Network) & Ted Leonisis (Washington Capitals majority owner) exemplify those traits. I am happy to give them a "shout out" as my two favorite endorsees of one of my books, "The Lunacy of a Sports Fan". Both individuals are very accessible to the public. I still enjoy conversations with both Chris & Ted, mostly via e-mail, as they are always there to provide there insights whenever I feel like talking about sports. It is no surprise to me that most people around the country are starting to recognize Ted Leonsis as the best owner in the NHL. In terms of "The most hardest working man in sports broadcasting", Chris Shearn, he already hosts Yankee BP TV & NJ Nets pre-game. Also he currently broadcasts Ivy Leauge football on YES. It is just a matter of time before he lands a spot as a regular sports talk radio host on WFAN, in my opinion. For there contributions to "The MAD Hungarian's" projects, I give both men a tribute from a popular Alanis Morissette song, "THANK YOU"!!!!!!!!!!!!
First off, will she be sober? Will she bring that ridiculous alligator to the ring? By the way "Snook", you do know that the alligator that you have isn't a REAL one right? I mean what do you think "old school" WWE HOF are thinking right now. I'm talking about people like Killer Kowalski, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Hulk Hogan, Bruno Sammartino, etc...........Like the late great WWE HOF Gorilla Monsoon said about Ali enterting the wrestling ring, "He (Ali) wouldn't know a wristlock from a wristwatch!" Clearly in St. Louis on 3/14/11 this will be another night to remember as another reality "celebrity", as I use the word celebrity very loosely (ahh sort of like our "guest host"), will make a complete "ASS CLOWN" of themselves, as Y2J would say. Why would we think otherwise, as we have all seen Snooki's "fine" behavior on "The Jersey Shore". However seeing Snooki in a WWE Ring to this "WWE Fanatic" is just another case of a "Jersey Bore"..............and that's the bottom line because Steve Nagy said so, thank you very much!
JBL, he's supposed to be from Texas, eh? Well last night (3/7/11) on Monday Night Raw the longest WWE Heavyweight Champ in "Smackdown" history called out MY Dallas Cowboys in front of a sold out arena in Dallas, TX. Stating that "the Texas teams" haven't won anything for awhile. Not that I care about the Rangers, Mavs or Stars, but when you talk smack about my "'Boys", you'll have someone to reckon with! Hey, I've got a good idea, since JBL is in New York & I'm in NJ let's have a little "faceoff" shall we? I'll bring MY CD, "MY 101 Reasons to LOVE the Dallas Cowboys.........()" & he can bring whatever he wants to bring. I'd LOVE to meet him in the middle of the ring at let's say "The World's Most Famous Arena", MSG. I teach him from this "Jersey Boy" that NOBODY messes with Texas, especially THE Dallas Cowboys.......and that's the bottom line because Steve Nagy says so, thank you very much. | http://myyesnetwork.com/yes23315/blog/ | 2013-05-18T10:21:14 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

@t0mmyb0y: they are working on tlou since 2009, after U2 was released (4years)
Edit: U3 development has also started after they were finished with UNCHARTED2, with other words: The development of TLOU is twice as long as uncharted :))
There's a rumour that to save the game you have to commit suicide. I'll be saving a lot....
BTW Journey isn't a Nintendo game.

BTW this game is being made by Naughty Dog which means that I this 20 hours of gameplay will be amazing.

Honda Canada disclosed the loss of more than 283,000 records this week. Letters mailed to affected customers explained that the information was stolen in March when hackers broke into the myHonda and myAcura websites.
Honda waited over two months to notify its customers, claiming it needed to assess the gravity of the situation and determine exactly what data may have been stolen. While it is important to determine the facts, Honda appears to have been less forthright than they claim.
The letter mailed to Honda customers stated:
"The incident involved the possible improper access of information, as held in our records in 2009, specifically your name, address and Vehicle Identification Number."
A few days later they then appended the statement on their website to say:
"and in a small number of cases, Honda Financial Services ("HFS") account numbers."
The Toronto Star reports that this has triggered a class action lawsuit on behalf of affected customers. The lawyers are suing for $200 million in damages for failure to protect personal and confidential information and failure to notify customers in "a reasonable amount of time."
Similar to one of the Sony attacks, it is being reported that the data was left behind after a mailing campaign in 2009 and not properly deleted. Honda Canada should have been on high alert after a very similar incident at Honda USA.
Honda Canada customers should watch carefully for fraud or contact from parties claiming to be related to Honda or Honda Finance. Fortunately, most of the information that was compromised is public knowledge and did not include birth dates, Social Insurance Numbers or other confidential information.
Has your organization taken the appropriate steps to secure your customers' data? A little encryption can go a long way in protecting you from a data loss incident and as we see here, even lawsuits.
If you would like to learn more about data protection and the types of threats that can compromise your organization, why not download our free Data Security Toolkit?
Everyone was outraged because Sony waited two weeks. It's hard to believe Honda could wait two months to disclose this. LastPass was a model citizen when they almost foolishly disclosed an Anomaly. Purely looking at blog comments, LastPass' fast and prudent actions seem to have helped them more than hurt them. I thought big companies like Sony and Honda paid people to keep their finger on the pulse of the online community. Is anyone listening?
Who do i call to be apart of the lawsuit? or am i automatically in? | http://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2011/05/29/honda-canada-loses-283000-records-now-faces-lawsuit/ | 2013-05-18T11:01:59 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Stress intensity factors (S.I.F.s) for a single radial through crack and for two diametrical through cracks originating from a pin-loaded lug are estimated. Numerical as well as experimental methods are used to obtain these S.I.F.s. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to compute the S.I.F. numerically. In the experimental method, fatigue crack growth tests are conducted to derive the S.I.F. In the F.E. approach, the two dimensional idealization of the lug is modeled with 4 node quadrilateral elements. The stress intensity factor is obtained using modified virtual crack closure integral (MVCCI) technique to post process the FEA data. Nodal forces and displacements in the elements surrounding the crack tip are used to estimate strain energy release rate from which S.I.F. is estimated. In the experimental method, crack growth rate (da/dN) versus stress intensity factor range (DeltaK) correlation data is generated in a single edge notch tension (SENT) specimen of the same thickness (as that of the lug). This data is generated at stress ratio R=0.7 to eliminate the influence of crack closure. In the lug specimen da/dN versus crack length 'a' data is generated at R=0.7. This growth rate is converted to ?K data by referring to da/dN about ?K data of SENT coupon. S.I.F.s derived from these techniques are critically examined. | http://nal-ir.nal.res.in/2654/ | 2013-05-18T10:42:02 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Trading Spaces
In 2008, a dream came true for Nancy. She was selected as an on-camera designer for TLC’s Trading Spaces, working with one of her role models, the incomparable Paige Davis. Her first season was TS’s last, but she made lifelong friends, and, using the techniques she had mastered on EM:HE, she was able to manufacture some true miracles for some really nice people. And every year, just before Christmas, TLC runs her show — the Trading Spaces Christmas Special. Keep an eye out for it….
Below are some pictures from her time on the first of the great design shows. | http://nancyhadley.com/blog/nancy-on-television/trading-spaces/ | 2013-05-18T10:11:21 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Some of our best ideas for ringing in 2011 in Naples Florida:
Fireworks off of Naples Pier begins at 7:30 - fireworks can be seen from all of our Naples beaches - don't want to deal with traffic? Get one of the complimentary bicycles from the front desk and ride down to the beach to watch the festivities.
Naples New Year's Eve Party 2010 at the Hilton Naples Hotel is sold out for tonight ~ make your reservations early for 2011 so you don't miss out on one of Naples favorite performers, Jimmy Keys!
5th Avenue South will be teaming with over 260 artists during their Downtown Naples New Year's Art Fair on Saturday and Sunday. Held in the heart of Downtown Naples, the Downtown Naples New Year's Art Fair offers upscale shops and restaurants to enjoy before and after visiting the artists' booths. Admission: Free
The weather is cooperating and it is predicted that this weekend will be the perfect backdrop for ringing in 2011. Are you a person that makes resolutions? If so we wish you much luck in making 2011 the year you achieve your goals! And above all, the Hilton Naples Team Wishes You Much Love, Laughter & Happiness in 2011
The Hilton Naples is a AAA Four-Diamond luxury hotel with affordable pricing and dozens of complimentary amenities, centrally located in Naples, Florida half of a mile from the beach.

Generous Spirit for the Naples Community
Hilton Naples Hotel Team Member displays for the Naples Community, Naples Hilton Team & her family.
Our Executive Assistant Patricia Marsh deserves a great big heartfelt thank you for her tireless work in volunteering with the Marine Corps Toys for Tots program in Collier County. This year alone, the volunteers for this program put together 428 bicycles to be distributed to children in Naples and the surrounding areas. Over 1600 families were pre-registered to receive gifts from the Toys for Tots Programs and 69 additional families registered on Distribution Day.
Trish reported walking into the warehouse on Toy Distribution Day to find families already lined up on the sidewalks at 4am in the morning. Each registered child received a minimum of 3 gifts, along with stuffed animals, games and books. Any toys left over were distributed to other area charity organizations and churches in time for Christmas.
You only have to see the way she lights up when she sees her two year old granddaughter, Samantha, to know how important family & community truly are to this generous spirit!

Along with being a school, it is also the area where the Hokage's office is located,.
Academic Division
Admission Requirements for Konoha's Academy
- Love the village and hope to help preserve peace and prosperity.
- Have a mind that will not yield, able to endure hard training and work.
- Be healthy in mind and body.
If the above conditions are met, admission to the Academy will be granted.[2]
Curriculum
Aside from the obvious lessons one would learn from a Ninja Academy, all students receive essential knowledge, such as reading, writing, mathematics, science, geography, etc. Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka are also shown to have taken special kunoichi classes, where they were taught things about other cultures and how knowledge of things like flower arranging will help them to blend in during an infiltration mission. Students also have to study the Shinobi Rules. Special lectures read by highly experienced shinobi are sometimes held.
Taught by chūnin instructors, all ninja potentials are lectured on tactics and strategies. They are instructed on the basics of trap-setting as well as how to strengthen their minds and bodies. They are taken through the handling of ninja weapons and tools, like shuriken and kunai, learning how to throw and wield them through target practice. Academy students are also taught about chakra and how to use it, hand seals and the basic levels of:
- Taijutsu classes serve as the Ninja Academy's equivalent of Physical education class. In taijutsu class, students are engaged in physical activities to help train their bodies and develop their stamina.
- Ninjutsu classes provide the bulk of what potential ninja learn at the Academy. The subject of ninjutsu encompasses techniques that use chakra and allows the user to do something that they otherwise would be incapable of doing. Techniques such as the Transformation Technique and the Clone Technique are taught to students at the Academy that will build up to what they'll learn from their jōnin-sensei.
- Genjutsu classes are not touched much upon except for explaining what genjutsu is. When learning about genjutsu, students are advised to determine if they are trapped in a genjutsu, and then how to release themselves from it.
Graduation graduates of the Sannin tests set by their chūnin-sensei may be held back for another year. However, students who do pass the tests set by their chūnin-sensei, but later fail the tests administered by their assigned jōnin-sensei, may either be sent back to the academy or else, depending on their performance, dropped from the program at their jōnin-sensei's discretion.
Although students are only instructed in the use of basic level genjutsu, ninjutsu and taijutsu, knowledge of these techniques are ultimately not pivotal to their success as ninja; anime it was revealed that the Ninja Academy at Suna has adopted a new training program that emulated that same training program as the Konoha Ninja Academy, and in Part II the success of the new training program was commented upon.
- The Kiri Ninja Academy: During Yagura's reign as the Fourth Mizukage, the Kiri Ninja Academy final graduation exam consisted of pitting all of the Ninja Academy's graduates.
Trivia
- Although the Japanese name for the Ninja Academy is simply Academy (Akademī; usually written as アカデミー), it's written with the kanji for ninja school (忍者学校; usually pronounced as "ninja gakkō").
- In the anime, there is also an academy that teachers must pass in order to teach the next generations of ninja.. | http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Academy?direction=prev&oldid=719308 | 2013-05-18T10:56:31 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

my own unique self. Other than that SO6P obviously..
I would either wanna be Kiba (didn't lose anyone important) or I would want to be Neji....because I like being able to fight cool
I would be shino because I am pretty smart and like to show it but am not as lazy as shikamaru. and Im weird I guess(dont like bugs though)

I'd be Deidara as I'm too into my own art.
IDK...my personality is closely similar to Hinata, but I'm not all to keen into gender swapping O.o....I guess I could go with Naruto, maybee Kakuzu just because he is a boss, or Shikimaru
I'd be Darui
Neji, always calm cool friendly but straight forward.

I'm more like a fusion of Naruto Shikamaru and Choji
I will be kakashi(without reading xxx books)
Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki Nawaki Senju. I would have requested teaching directly from Tsunade, rather than being Orochimaru's student. I would provoke Fugaku, kill him, and take his sharingan.
After this I will convince Danzo that I will be his "weapon" on the condition that I become the Seven-Tails' jinchuuriki. Prime Danzo solos the past Seven-Tails jinchuuriki and I convince Jiraiya to seal it into me.
I fly everywhere. I see everything.

District 20 Metro Councilman Buddy Baker, who was viewed by many as a likely supporter of the May Town Center proposal for rural Bells Bend, now opposes the development because a required second bridge would impact his West Nashville district.
Baker sent a letter to constituents last week explaining his opposition. Metro Planning has issued a staff report supporting the proposal to bring a mixed-use business park, residential, retail development to the rural fields of Bells Bend. But the recommendations were tagged with 17 contingencies, including the newly announced need for a second bridge.
Quoting Metro Public Works, Baker said the second bridge would be required at Old Cleese’s Factory location.
“Therefore I am opposing the [May Town Center development],” Baker said in his letter. “I hope that this will meet with everyone’s approval. I would like to see the development take place, however I cannot support a bridge coming into a residential neighborhood. It would require the taking of several homes and I will fight against that.”
Baker’s new opposition comes on the heels of District 1 Councilman Lonnell Matthews Jr. announcing he supports May Town Center. Matthews, whose district includes the Bend, announced his support when the issue came back in front of the Planning Commission for a public hearing last month.
The public hearing will be continued June 25 so commissioners can hear more comments related to the recently released economic impact study. The hearing will likely be continued for June 30 and the commissioners would vote on the proposal at that time.
Baker’s opposition because of the traffic and bridge requirements aligns with fellow West Nashville Councilmembers Jason Holleman and Emily Evans, both of whom also oppose May Town Center for the same reasons.
Has anyone ever been to the Brooklyn Bridge? They have lanes for cars and trucks, bicycles and foot traffic all in one bridge, how novel. Come on Buddy, those of us who own property in the Nations, property that will increase in value, property in your District, think you ought to get a little creative and help your District grow and prosper. Your decision to inhibit progress makes me wonder if we made the right decision by electing you to represent our interests. Sean
Sean:
Where are the plans that show that the proposed bridge will be anything other than a "cookie cutter" auto mover? Perhaps if there were a solid commitment/design plan to include such amenities as you tout then opposition might swing to support. I think Mr. Baker's opposition is the correct stance to take until such questions are addressed.
That would be nice to have a bridge that accomodates ALL vehicular, bike, and pedestrian traffic. Maybe the bridge could connect at another (non-residential) site, who knows. Hopefully, all options will be thoughtfully evaluated/researched so that both sides are satisfied. -MR
I thank you Mr. Baker. We must keep the nations as a showcase for the lower middle class. I delivered newspapers there in 1952 and 1953. There has been much progress since then. Part of Louisiana avenue was unpaved in 1952. It now has been paved to completion. West Park has been built where there were cows grazing. St.Luke Community Center which at one time had the smallest basketball gym in the United States and the most shooter friendly has been upscaled. It may now be the the nicest building in the entire Nation. | http://nashvillecitypaper.com/content/city-news/surprise-west-nashville-councilman-against-may-town | 2013-05-18T10:43:05 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Looking back at January 2013, were my local climatic conditions much different to that of 2012?
Firstly, in the United Kingdom, 2012 began as “the year of the drought” * with recorded precipitation totalling 32.8mm in my neck of the woods. By comparison, January this time around looked like this.
In total, we received 61.6mm, which is still below the revised 1981 to 2010 mean by approximately 25% or so. What about the Air Temperatures?
January 2012 was mild in comparison with some 11 double-digit Fahrenheit Maximums being achieved back then and unsurprisingly a mean of 0.8c above the long-term average, mentioned previously. This time around, January 2013 saw the following daily Air temperature trend.
Due to almost two-thirds of January 2013 being in the cold to very cold category, it is unsurprising that the mean return of 4.0c was below the long-term average by 0.6c. As a result of the above, can you guess which phenological indicators were to show themselves amidst the cold of January?
The first Primroses (Primula vulgaris) were witnessed in bloom on 5th January. However, before we jump for joy at seeing them so early in the year, one should perhaps, read an excerpt from Richard Mabey‘s wonderful Flora Britannica. In there, Richard states that they are not the most reliable of indicators when it comes to tracking climate change. Oh well! They are however, beautiful to see and always brighten up a dull day.
An early songster is always nice to hear and one of the first to embrace the New Year was the Blackbird (Turdus Merula). I first heard the 2013 song of this particular species on 7th January, whereas last year it was 9th January. A personal sound recording of a Blackbird can be heard below. This link will take you to another website, which upon opening, you should click the orange icon on the Left Hand side of your screen to allow playback of the sound recording.
The next phenology indicator of interest came courtesy of First Hazel Flowering (Corylus avellana) on 11th January. This compares favourably with the 7th January sighting from the previous year. A record shot of which, I have attached below.
The final phenologically related event of any consequence came about on the 21st January. This revealed itself in the form of a Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) first heard singing. The corresponding date last year was the 13th January. A personal sound recording of a Chaffinch singing is available via the link shown below.
A final way to view the ongoing trend in my datasets is to observe them in graphical format. Good news!
Represented below are the aforementioned sightings in such a manner. Please note each event recorded annually is represented as a day number and not in date format. The events have been logged, only during years, in which I managed to achieve a meaningful result. Please make what you will of the data.
Given the cold conditions of January and the fact that I have often been preoccupied in my personal life, things have been rather slow to unfold. February was to prove a different story.
* The year of ongoing drought quickly became the year it never stopped raining, officially 2nd wettest in Met Office recorded history.
