Game Date / Time: | TBA |
Won/Lost: | L |
Score: | 3-2 (OT) |
Game Notes: | PSU-Behrend 3, Mount Aloysius 2 In another close conference contest, the Mount Aloysius women's soccer team fell to Penn State-Behrend 3-2 in overtime on Saturday afternoon on Senior Day. Prior to the game, Mount Aloysius honored its six departing players- Tonya Bibby, Emily Burget, Katelyn Shull, Lara Appiah, Pam Pride and Nicole Schweinsberg. After the ceremony, the Mounties put forth their second consecutive spirited effort following a 2-1 victory over Penn State-Altoona. Behrend got on the board first in the 14th minute as Abbie Schuster deposited a cross into the back of the net to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. However, the Mount would respond with a goal from freshman forward Megan Parker 31 minutes into play. Parker won a loose ball at the top of the box, spun and struck a low volley in the bottom of the net to tie things up at 1-1 heading into the break. The Mount found their first lead of the day five minutes into the second half on a gorgeous lofted goal by Stephanie Oaks off of a pass from Katelyn Shull. Three minutes later, Mount Aloysius was whistled for a controversial foul in the box and Behrend knotted it up at 2-2. The Mount defense stood tall for the remainder of the second half and limited any Nittany Lion opportunities. Three minutes into overtime, however, Behrend's Julia Schroeck nailed the game winner. Freshman goalie Lauren Challingsworth was solid once again with nine saves on the day. SENIOR DAY INTRODUCTIONS #12 Katelyn Shull- A four year member of the women's soccer team, Shull has appeared in 47 games in her career despite missing a full season, starting in 35 of them. A graduate of Arundel High in Crofton, MD, she will be graduating with a major in Criminal Justice. Shull has been both strong and versatile this season as both a central and outside midfielder for the Mounties. #11 Pam Pride- A four year member of the women's soccer team, Pam has appeared in 38 games in her Mountie career, starting in 35 of them. A graduate of Clearfield High School in Latrobe, PA, her most memorable game occurred in her sophomore season against Pitt-Bradford. Pam scored two goals, including a goal in double-overtime that gave Mount Aloysius the win. Pam has been a reliable and consistent midfielder throughout her Mountie career. #10 Lara Appiah- A four year member of the women's soccer team, Lara has appeared in 56 games in her career, starting in 39 of them. A graduate of Ghana Christian International High School and originally from Accra, Ghana, Lara will be graduating this year with a major in Pre Med-Biology. Lara has helped the team at every position this season, including starting the year filling in at goalie- the first time she has ever played there. She scored the game-winning goal against Valley Forge on September 15th, which was the first goal of her Mountie career. #6 Emily Burget- A three year member of the women's soccer team, Emily will be graduating this year from the Pre-Physicians Assistant program. A graduate of Bellwood High School in Belwood, PA, Emily has appeared in 44 games in three years, starting 43 of them. She has three goals and recorded one assist in her career as an outside midfielder known for her passing and tackling ability. #15 Nicole Schweinsberg- A three year member of the women's soccer team, Nicole will be graduating this year with a degree in Medical Imaging. A graduate of West Allegheny High School in Pittsburgh, Nicole has appeared in 45 games in three years, starting 44 of them. She assisted on a game-winning goal against Pitt-Bradford as a freshman, and she has been tremendous this season as an outside defender for the Mount. #3 Tonya Bibby- A three year member of the women's soccer team, Tonya will be graduating this year from the Mount's Physical Therapy program. A graduate of Windber High School in Windber, Tonya has appeared in 44 games in 3 years, starting all of them. A team captain this season who leads by example, Tonya has led Mount defense from the sweeper position. |

Known the world over as the Emerald City, Seattle is one of the most independent, beautiful and business-friendly areas in the United States. Seattle apartments for rent will give you access to a variety of fun neighborhoods to choose from, as well as exciting attractions around every corner like the Space Needle, Pike Place Market, Pioneer Square, stunning views of the Puget Sound and loads of outdoor recreation.
Seattle has a young, tech-driven and artistic vibe - making apartments in Seattle perfect for hip urban dwellers - with Capitol Hill and the University District being the standouts. However, there are several neighborhoods that are suited to family-friendly life also, including Ballard, Greenlake and Greenview. The Emerald City continues to grow in popularity. According to City-Data, the city has seen an 8 percent jump in population from 2000 to 2010. Some of the most popular Seattle apartments for rent are located in Fremont, South Lake Union and Capitol Hill. Around 41 percent of residents here commute by transit, biking or walking, so Seattle apartments fit in perfectly with the way of life here. Some of the housing options in the city include lofty condos as well as bungalow-style homes.
According to the Seattle Department of Planning and Development, the median gross rent in the area was around $958 in 2012. Based on census data, rental vacancy and occupancy rates are up in many of the neighborhoods in the city, so Seattle apartments for rent are more popular than ever. The cost of a gallon of gas in the area is around $3.80, similar to many other large cities in the United States. According to City-Data, the cost of living index in 2012 was about 16 points above the nation's average.
There are several reputable colleges and universities in Seattle, including Seattle University, the University of Washington (called "UDub" by locals), Seattle Pacific University and a host of community colleges that cater to those living in Seattle apartments. According to City-Data, one of the most popular industries in the area is the aerospace sector due to the nearby Boeing Headquarters, located in neighboring Renton. However, the city is also a leader in fields like computer software, environmental engineering and biotechnology, with Amazon and Microsoft both making their home here as well. Seattle is also the home of coffee giant Starbucks.

The opening section is suitably celebratory, using rich five-part harmony and joyful dotted figurations for the word glad. The various tribes of the Lord appear one by one as they congregate from their various corners, joining in homophony as they give thanks unto the name of the Lord. At O pray for the peace of Jerusalem the mood alters to one of supplication, the trebles provided with an especially appealing line, before the lighter, triple-time metre returns with the hope that peace and plenteousness will bless the royal palaces.
The Gloria begins exultantly, with the opening word repeated three times: at as it was in the beginning Purcell returns, as he did near the outset, to imitation, but he saves his compositional tour de force for world without end: the imitative point (a four-note descending scale) is first treated conventionally, then in inversion (rising), then in inverted augmentation in the bass line (rising at half speed), and finally, as the trebles and altos contest the theme at the original speed in real and inverted form, the tenors take over the single inverted augmentation, and simultaneously the basses triumphantly halve even this speed to present Purcells theme in double augmentation.

Advantages include: increased accuracy by the addition of a muzzle brake which reduces recoil and increased effective range, making it a very formidable weapon when used against lightly armored infantry. The addition of a optics module, located underneath the suppressor/muzzle brake, gives the user 4x digital zoom for long range targets; the optics module also includes a flashlight to provide illumination in low-light situations. With all these upgrades its no wonder why the Automag is a favorite among space troopers all over the galaxy. Fits most minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Arrows - Steel
The arrow is a shafted projectile that is shot with a bow. It predates recorded history and is common to most cultures. Arrows have evolved over time; the first simply using a sharpened tip of the solid, wooden shaft - then evolving into separate arrowheads made from rock, metal or horns. Modern arrows are made from composite materials and feature complex alloy heads, ranging from fixed-blade to mechanical to explosive. The BrickForge Arrow assortment features three arrows: Two-bladed Broadhead, Four-bladed Razorhead and an Explosive arrow. We're sure you'll find a use for 'em. Don't forget to pick up one one our many minifig-scale bows such as the Longbow, Recurve Bow and Compound Bow to create a truly unique minifig! Standard 3mm grip point along the fletching fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $0.75
Arabian Helmet - Steel
Perhaps the most familiar characteristic of Arabian Helmets is their distinctive conical shape. The design spans thousands of years, originating all the way back from the Assyrian empire down to the more recent Ottoman. Various styles include decorative gilding, embossed ornamentation, finial knobs and boss rivets to attach an aventail or ear guards. In the same fashion that sultans would wrap their turbans around their helmets, the Arabian Helmet connects to the BrickForge Turban so you can assemble your own elite desert fighting force. Fits most standard minifig heads.
Our price: $0.75
Anti-Material Sniper - Steel
The Anti-Material Sniper proves its worthiness as a long range weapons, capable of picking off single targets with a lethal shot. It can be used to neutralize significant threats that would have otherwise proved impossible. Other than serving as an offensive role, the rifle is fondly used as a spotting device: its scope is a very efficient tool for surveillance, reconnaissance and scouting, allowing the user to relay information back to other minifig-mates. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.00
Aluminum Baseball Bat - Steel (Lime SNOT print)
Thanks to the popularity of baseball and softball the baseball bat has found its way into almost every home in America. The Aluminum Baseball
Bat is a smooth metal club used to hit a small white ball in repeated attempts to score more runs than the other team. The baseball bat has also proven useful as a deterrent to home-invasions or cracking windshields as result of past grudge match. Whether you pinch hit, or need protection in a pinch, the Aluminum Baseball Bat is as reliable as the lights at Wrigley Field. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $1.05

Ice Age Cancelled: Deniers Destined for Disappointment
Ice Age Cancelled: Deniers Destined for Disappointment
The web is alive with idiotic commentary this week after the American Astronomical Society's solar physics division heard three new studies, all pointing towards declining sunspot activity into the next decade.
But while the least professional journals (see the Financial Post link above) presented only the possibility that reduced solar energy could chill the planet, even sometimes-skeptical newspapers such as The Telegraph responded to the responsibility to include some scientific response confirming that a Grand Solar Minimum, even if one occurred, would not be sufficient to offset the effects and dangers of human-induced global warming.
For more complete looks at the goofy claims of an impending ice age, and more thoughtful presentations of the science debunking such a chill, check out Bad Astronomy, Peter Sinclair's take on Climate Denial Crock of the Week or Joe Romm's at ClimateProgress.

But, but Lorne Gunter says (again) we are heading for global cooling. I lost track of the logical fallacies and distortion and misrepresentation in his diatribe.
How cute--Gunter, Solomon and are tag teaming.
Some more facts are available here:
Well, I am so delighted that I have located your post because I've been searching for some good info about it for almost three hours. You helped me a lot indeed.
Your post was very interesting...
Thank you!!

I should not think it necessary to back his statememt.
Anyone that reads this site regularily knows full well how facts are manipulated to support the AGW scam.
This topic is perticularily representitive.
All the good science does support a drastic cooling over the next few decades. Only reality deniers like Desmog, RC, ROM etc, still cling to the failed hypothesis about CO2 being a major driver.
In any event, the climate will continue to cool as it has done for a decade and eventually even the most ardent deniers will have to admit that the SUN controls climate.
The CERN experiment will likely be a major turning point for global belief in the old dogma.
However, despite all these "facts" you haven't been able to actually post any of them.
"All the good science does support a drastic cooling over the next few decades"
Ah, double plus goodfact, huh.
"the failed hypothesis about CO2 being a major driver."
Pity that you can't actually substantiate that claim.
"The CERN experiment will likely be a major turning point for global belief in the old dogma."
Despite the current run having shown no appreciable effect above the noise level, you're ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that it's the CERN experiment.
Pity you don't show any skepticism.
You are very confused, and probably projecting. Lysenkoism perfectly describes the actions of "skeptics" and those who deny the theory of AGW.
Think of papers and reports by McLean et al., Soon and Baliunas, Wegman, McIntyre and McKitrick 05, McKitrick and Michaels, Lindzen and Choi, G&T, Douglass et al. It is a very long list...
Here is how the warmists attempt to twist the story on this.
They use a climate model that only accounts for iradiance to project how much cooling a solar minimum will cause.
Then state that it isnt enough.
The problem is, and alwasy has been, that irradiance is not what the issue is. Everone already know that.
Oh well,,, the truth will out.
You direct us to an obscure blog to make your point? How convincing (/sarc). Svensmark is entitled to his opinion, but he has been shown several times in the past to be wrong.
It is really no surprise that the 'skeptics', like creationists and the pro-Tobacco lobby, have no credibility.
You are behind the times, the truth has won out. AGW is real.
And with reference to the hobby site that you directed us to--you seem oblivious to the fact that there are many Hockey Sticks out there that they were made using independent data and methods.
And the "skeptics" are hopping all over this prediction which may not even come to fruition. You are counting your chickens before they have hatched. If you want to try and argue science you are going to have to do much better. And one last suggestion, please stop disseminating misinformation.
"You are behind the times, the truth has won out. AGW is real."
Only in your own mind is it real....
If it were, there would have been proof or even some good evidence to support it in the last 30 years.
However, after 30 years and over a hundred billion dollars wasted, still NADA.
Still just a loose hypothesis that is losing faith fast.
Nice try though
Anon, you really are making fool of yourself and (proudly?) showing your ignorance. You seem to be of the belief that the greenhouse effect is not real.
And you really do need to learn the difference between a "hypothesis" and a "theory"; as in the hypothesis that GCRs explain the observed warming, versus the theory of evolution, gravity and AGW.
Now go and get your sweater, rumour in the denialosphere has it we're allegedly heading for an ice age.
It only SEEMS that way in your mind.
I certainly have never stated anything of the sort.
You on the other hand seem to believe AGW is Fact.
when in reality it is merely an hypothesis.
not even enough backing to be a theory.
That takes FAITH.
do you alos believe in creation? AGW is similar it would seem likely that you do.
Sigh, more invective and rhetoric and unsupported grand assertions, and strawmen arguments. You really do not know the difference between a "hypothesis" and "theory" do you ;)
Even Lindzen acknowledges that the greenhouse effect is real, so do Christy and Spencer and other 'skeptics'. So you then must be in the real outlier.
The National Academy of science would disagree with your beliefs concerning the theory of AGW, as would pretty much every other major reputable scientific academy, union or society on the planet. But you are probably think that you know better than the National Academy of Sciences.
Anyways, I see that you are firmly entrenched in your ideology, so there is no point engaging you Anon. All the best.
Summary: Full of lies.
"The problem is, and alwasy has been, that irradiance is not what the issue is."
Odd. So the Sun has some mystical force that works on the earth?
Or, if it's GCRs being modified by the sun's inactivity, why didn't that occur at the last maunder minimum of this strength 100 years ago?
The sun is as quiet now as it was then, yet it's about 0.8C warmer.
The concensus I am seeing around today is that the warmists will find some way to blame the cooling on CO2 as well.
Some very rich and powerful people have a lot invested in this movement and just because it turns cold, they still need to have CO2 blamed to keep the money flowing to the right spots.
Anyone else seeing this trend?
Any sign of such explainations yet?
What is true? Your unsubstantiated belied that the greenhouse effect is not real, or the fact that your comments are vacuous and filled with rhetoric?
'Skeptics' and those in denial about AGW really ought to learn how to formulate an eloquent, clear and scientifically-based argument for once instead of playing word games. You really do have nothing Anon, and it is showing :)
anonymous-the-denier loves to shill for the fossil fuel industry. In general, his posts are full of sound and fury and signify nothing.
According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), last year (2010) was especially notable in that global surface temperatures reached record values at the same level as in 1998 and 2005, consistent with the acceleration of the warming experienced over the last 50 years. The year also signaled the closure of the warmest decade on record. Over this decade, warming was markedly more pronounced in some regions, notably so in North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, South Asia and the Arctic.
Guessing that their numbers come from GISS?
The numbers that Jimmy Hanson "Adjusts" for us.
Odd how all the old numbers are adjust down and all the newer ones are adjusted up isnt it?
seems to alwasy have the effect of makeing recent temps "look" warmer.
Hmmmm... I am sure it is just coincedental though.
For those interested in facts. It is Dr. James Hansen, but the juvenile "skeptics" have to get their pathetic digs in somehow I guess. And all the global records are in excellent agreement, even those from BEST.
The NASA global temperature record (GISTEMP) has also been corroborated by the CCC project.
The globe experienced the 10th warmest May since record keeping began in 1880, as the climate phenomenon La Niña ended its 2011 cycle. The Arctic sea ice extent was the third smallest extent for May on record.
The monthly analysis from NOAA's National Climatic Data Center is part of the suite of climate services NOAA provides government, business and community leaders so they can make informed decisions.
To read the entire NOAA report for May, go to:
Well as usual the warmists completely miss the point.
1. nobody disputes the badly named greenhouse effect.
2. only warmists see ice melting as proof of AGW.
The point is the A in AGW.
The fact that we had a little warming blip in the 1990s tell us nothing other than we had a warm spell.
The only relevent issue is what caused it.
Some poorly written computer games suggest that man made CO2 caused it because they were written to show that and simply dont account for all the factors.
The latest science (real science not nintendo scenarios) shows several well corrolated natural causes.
The real cause is emerging from the research and unfrotunatley for the AGW industry it is not CO2. man made or otherwise.

anonymous-the-denier dutufully spreads the pseudo-science poppycock generated by the Climate Denial Spin Machine.
Like many climate denier drones, anonymous-the-denier spouts unsubstantiated and bogus platitudes.
Simply put, anonymous-the-denier has spent way too much time rattling around inside the Climate Denial Spin Machine.
How do we know humans are the primary cause of the warming?
A large body of evidence supports the conclusion that human activity is the primary driver of recent warming. This evidence has accumulated over several decades, and from hundreds of studies. The first line of evidence is our basic physical understanding of how greenhouse gases trap heat, how the climate system responds to increases in greenhouse gases, and how other human and natural factors influence climate.
The second line of evidence is from indirect estimates of climate changes over the last 1,000 to 2,000 years. These estimates are often obtained from living things and their remains (like tree rings and corals) which provide a natural archive of climate variations. These indicators show that the recent temperature rise is clearly unusual in at least the last 1,000 years.
The third line of evidence is based on comparisons of actual climate with computer models of how we expect climate to behave under certain human influences. For example, when climate models are run with historical increases in greenhouse gases, they show gradual warming of the Earth and ocean surface, increases in ocean heat content, a rise in global sea level, and general retreat of sea ice and snow cover. These and other aspects of modeled climate change are in agreement with observations.
"Global Climate Change Indicators", National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Climatic Data Center
1,2, and three.. all warmist propaganda.
1 has been debunked well and often.
2. The hokey Schtick is clear fraud
3. Cumputer games poorly written.
We have heard this nonsense toooooo many time already and nobody buys it anymore.
Your juvenille retort is so predictable.
The 2009 State of the Climate report released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in July of last year draws on data for 10 key climate indicators that all point to the same finding: the scientific evidence that our world is warming is unmistakable.
More than 300 scientists from 160 research groups in 48 countries contributed to the report, which confirms that the past decade was the warmest on record and that the Earth has been growing warmer over the last 50 years.
Based on comprehensive data from multiple sources, the report defines 10 measurable planet-wide features used to gauge global temperature changes. The relative movement of each of these indicators proves consistent with a warming world. Seven indicators are rising: air temperature over land, sea-surface temperature, air temperature over oceans, sea level, ocean heat, humidity and tropospheric temperature in the "active-weather" layer of the atmosphere closest to the Earth's surface. Three indicators are declining: Arctic sea ice, glaciers and spring snow cover in the Northern hemisphere.
"For the first time, and in a single compelling comparison, the analysis brings together multiple observational records from the top of the atmosphere to the depths of the ocean," said Jane Lubchenco, Ph.D., under secretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere and NOAA administrator. "The records come from many institutions worldwide. They use data collected from diverse sources, including satellites, weather balloons, weather stations, ships, buoys and field surveys. These independently produced lines of evidence all point to the same conclusion: our planet is warming,"
Source: "NOAA: Past Decade Warmest on Record According to Scientists in 48 Countries -- Earth has been growing warmer for more than fifty years," NOAA News Release, July 28, 2010.
This thread show all the signs of corporate anti-green trolls polluting valid discussions with disinformation. Anonymous posters congratulating the bullshit posts of other anonymous posters for clear-thinking and good-reasoning? I call bullshit.
I'll bet these assholes are among those we know are getting paid to disrupt AGW blogs.

Indian and Himalayan Art Souvenir Painting of the Goddess Sarasvati Made in Calcutta (present-day Kolkata), West Bengal, India, AsiaKalighat, c. 1850-75 Artist/maker unknown, India Transparent, opaque, and metallic watercolors on paper Currently not on view 1994-148-564 Stella Kramrisch Collection, 1994 |
LabelIn 1809, a temple to Kali, the goddess of destruction, was built just south of present-day Kolkata (Calcutta), the capital of British India. Professional painters quickly began making souvenir images for the many pilgrims who visited the site. These so-called Kalighat paintings grew from earlier traditions of popular art, but merged new painting techniques such as thin, shaded watercolor brushwork developed from British models. Painters made fluid line sketches overlaid with color washes, as in this example, to increase the speed of production. Most early Kalighat paintings were icons of gods and goddesses, such as Sarasvati, the goddess of learning and music, shown here playing a stringed instrument.Social Tags [?]19th century indian painting [x] kalighat painting [x] saraswati [x] [Add Your Own Tags] |

Why you should never, ever use two spaces after a period.
Can I let you in on a secret? Typing two spaces after a period is totally, completely, utterly, and inarguably wrong.
And yet people who use two spaces are everywhere, their ugly error crossing every social boundary of class, education, and taste. * You'd expect, for instance, that anyone savvy enough to read Slate would know the proper rules of typing, but you'd be wrong; every third e-mail I get from readers includes the two-space error. (In editing letters for "Dear Farhad," my occasional tech-advice column, I've removed enough extra spaces to fill my forthcoming volume of melancholy epic poetry, The Emptiness Within.) The public relations profession is similarly ignorant; I've received press releases and correspondence from the biggest companies in the world that are riddled with extra spaces. Some of my best friends are irredeemable two spacers, too, and even my wife has been known to use an unnecessary extra space every now and then (though she points out that she does so only when writing to other two-spacers, just to make them happy).
What galls me about two-spacers isn't just their numbers. It's their certainty that they're right. Over Thanksgiving dinner last year, I asked people what they considered to be the "correct" number of spaces between sentences. The diners included doctors, computer programmers, and other highly accomplished professionals. Everyone—everyone!—said it was proper to use two spaces. Some people admitted to slipping sometimes and using a single space—but when writing something formal, they were always careful to use two. Others explained they mostly used a single space but felt guilty for violating the two-space "rule." Still others said they used two spaces all the time, and they were thrilled to be so proper. When I pointed out that they were doing it wrong—that, in fact, the correct way to end a sentence is with a period followed by a single, proud, beautiful space—the table balked. "Who says two spaces is wrong?" they wanted to know.
Typographers, that's who. The people who study and design the typewritten word decided long ago that we should use one space, not two, between sentences. That convention was not arrived at casually. James Felici, author of the The Complete Manual of Typography, points out that the early history of type is one of inconsistent spacing. Hundreds of years ago some typesetters would end sentences with a double space, others would use a single space, and a few renegades would use three or four spaces. Inconsistency reigned in all facets of written communication; there were few conventions regarding spelling, punctuation, character design, and ways to add emphasis to type. But as typesetting became more widespread, its practitioners began to adopt best practices. Felici writes that typesetters in Europe began to settle on a single space around the early 20th century. America followed soon after.
Every modern typographer agrees on the one-space rule. It's one of the canonical rules of the profession, in the same way that waiters know that the salad fork goes to the left of the dinner fork and fashion designers know to put men's shirt buttons on the right and women's on the left. Every major style guide—including the Modern Language Association Style Manual and the Chicago Manual of Style—prescribes a single space after a period. (The Publications Manual of the American Psychological Association, used widely in the social sciences, allows for two spaces in draft manuscripts but recommends one space in published work.) Most ordinary people would know the one-space rule, too, if it weren't for a quirk of history. In the middle of the last century, a now-outmoded technology—the manual typewriter—invaded the American workplace. To accommodate that machine's shortcomings, everyone began to type wrong. And even though we no longer use typewriters, we all still type like we do. (Also see the persistence of the dreaded Caps Lock key.)
The problem with typewriters was that they used monospaced type—that is, every character occupied an equal amount of horizontal space. This bucked a long tradition of proportional typesetting, in which skinny characters (like I or 1) were given less space than fat ones (like W or M). Monospaced type gives you text that looks "loose" and uneven; there's a lot of white space between characters and words, so it's more difficult to spot the spaces between sentences immediately. Hence the adoption of the two-space rule—on a typewriter, an extra space after a sentence makes text easier to read. Here's the thing, though: Monospaced fonts went out in the 1970s. First electric typewriters and then computers began to offer people ways to create text using proportional fonts. Today nearly every font on your PC is proportional. (Courier is the one major exception.) Because we've all switched to modern fonts, adding two spaces after a period no longer enhances readability, typographers say. It diminishes it.

"there is a season to drive?"... to everthing, turn, turn, there is a season, turn, turn ...
"we should start drilling our own oil, using our own natural gas and using coal.....why are we making those people overseas rich? And putting ourselves in danger?

We should not only do those things, but move forward with more solar, wind, tidal, hydrogen, methane, hydro, nuclear, etc. Make use of it all and here at home and create jobs here at home; something they really have no intention of doing.

And honestly, I cannot choose a favorite from all of those cakes.
chocolate syrup to drizzle on top (optional)
If you like, sprinkle some extra crushed Butterfinger bars on top before serving or drizzle with a little chocolate syrup, then dig in!
Brandie! I'm loving this presentation... Such a huge fan of Butterfingers, however I only indulge in them once (or twice) a year at Halloween when I plead with my children to share one from their trick-or-treat bag. Okay, I beg! I'm thinking I'm going to have to make an exception and try this for myself, me and I. Another homerun moment girl, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLooks divine! I'm not big on 'plain ole cake' but you dress it up with these fab ingredients and I can't stay away. They all look awesome...can't get better than this. Love the ease of these kinds of desserts too. Thanks for sharing - enjoy a blessed and beautiful Christmas week. {{HUGS}}!
ReplyDeletelooks really good, gonna try this one...thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI've made this cake 3 times now, it is just too yummy!!! The 3rd time I made it, I put butterscotch topping in it instead of caramel. It was just as amazing. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your blog! I have gotten some great recipes from here. You are missing one poke cake though. I would like to share my recipe with you. It is my whole family's favorite. We can't have a special get together w/o it or I get in trouble. If you are interested, please let me know how I can pass it along.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU FOR ALL THE PICTURES OF YOUR RECIPES THAT HELPS SO MUCH!! I LOVE ALL YOUR RECIPES AND PUT A LOT OF THEM ON FACEBOOK.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing all your recipes...made this cake today...EXCELLENT!! Even though the store didn't have the marble cake mix i made my own and made two cakes...a box of yellow and choc. fudge cake mix. Just swirled choc. into yellow and then yellow swirl into the choc. It was great...even added the carmel/con. milk mixture (what was left of it) and drizzled it on the top when i was finished. Thanks for the step by step pics in with directions. I look forward to seeing more recipes!
ReplyDeleteI made with the chocolate cake mix and it was yummy. I also found the wrapper is tough enough to smash the candy while still wrapped. Then all you have to do is snip the end off and poor the candy onto the cake. Easy but looks like you went to a lot of work. lol Thanks for all your recipes, they are really good.
ReplyDeleteMade this with a devil's food cake mix cuz that's what I had in the cabinet and omitted the cool whip sincy my boyfriend doesn't really like it. However, it was super moist and awesome topped with crushed butterfinger candy, a little of the caramel mixture and drizzled with a bit of chocolate syrup.
ReplyDeleteFound this on Pinterest and can not wait to make it for my husband's birthday this week. Yummy. I love dressing up plain old boxed cake mixes into something fab. It is going to be a long week of waiting, he he. I just hope they top the peanut butter brownies I made for our anniversary this week, but pretty sure they will.
I am just tickled pink when anyone takes their precious time to leave me a message. Thank you for stopping by and thank you for commenting!
Just remember to be nice and keep it clean. This is a family blog and if you wouldn't say it to me while in my home, then don't type it on here. Thank ya kindly!

it wasn't released commercially until four years later
So four years later bare breasts were OK? The board of censors became 21?
The USA are among the countries with the most ridicully behaving public, as seen from Germany. It is totally possible to shock the country with just one nipple, it is totally OK to ban pictures of breastfeeding women from websites, and so on. OTOH the USA dominate world's porn industry. Go figure.
That said, I was drawing bras on bare breasts as well. That was in 1990 for "Werner - Beinhart!" which included some dream sequences of Werner and his totally naked dream girl. Totally naked? Well, in the original animation. The release version had a bikini drawn on her. The producers feared to not get a FSK 6 rating if the breasts remained bare. I really much felt like raping a crucifix when I had to draw directly (!) on Tahsin Özgür's wonderful animation.
Surprisingly enough I found an uncensored shot in the net: . It must have been some publicity shot published before release.

What the Press say
""Although there is a wide of accommodation in the Lakes, we were drawn to the charm of Linthwaite House... The special thing about Linthwaite, we found, was the atmosphere. Although every room, fitting and meal is luxurious in every way, the staff are friendly and 'un-stuffy'... Leaving Linthwaite House was hard, and we could have quite happily stayed on for another week." - The City Magazine, January 2010.

Kappaya at the Convent
So the other day, me and two friends trooped down to the Abbotsford Convent for some Japanese food at Kappaya.
Now I had never been to the Convent before and was quite taken aback. Firstly this place used to be a huge catholic convent. Lots of nuns doing lots of charity work. It's also in a beautiful location.
Nowadays, the convent is run as a non-profit secular organisation. It has a few restaurants (lentil as anything and the convent bakery (great coffee!), art gallery, commercial art studio space, animal farm (we fed the horses, pony and donkey - the sheep were not interested) and gardens. I'm sure there is more. Definitely worth a visit!
Back to Kappaya - this place is run out of the old convent kitchens (used to feed 1000 people). They share it with the other food places. The inside seating is pretty cosy, but there is ample room outside.
I opted for the $12 bento. Quite affordable really. For that I got this:
It was pretty great.

Senior Senator Charles Schumer has been one of several senators who are pushing federal legislation to up the minimum wage to nearly $10. Schumer made a stop in Albany Monday, weighing in on the state's struggle to increase the minimum wage, placing blame on the Senate Republicans. Our Nick Reisman has more.
NEW YORK STATE -- After an effort to raise the minimum wage on the state level failed this year, federal lawmakers are now turning their attention to the issue. A Democratic-backed proposal that's supported both Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand would increase the federal minimum wage to $9.80, a more ambitious plan than what Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver wanted.
Schumer said, "You know, I think we should get this done at the federal level and at the state level. If you work hard, 40 hours a week, you should be able to support your family in a decent way. "
Silver in January proposed raising New York's minimum wage from the current federal minimum of $7.25 to $8.50 and then tie future increases to inflation. But the bill failed to gain traction in the Senate and any intense on Governor Andrew Cuomo's part to see the bill pass. Schumer says Cuomo isn't to blame.
"From what I understand, it's the State Senate that's blocking it. So I think Governor Cuomo is for it and I think the Assembly has passed it," Schumer said.
State Senate Republicans were quick to respond to that, releasing a lengthy statement that said in part, "While we're reducing the taxes middle class families pay to their lowest levels in more than 50 years, Senator Schumer is refusing to support middle class tax cuts and approving Obamacare, which combined will cost New Yorkers $14 billion in new taxes -- which is proof that he doesn't understand the needs of suburban New Yorkers."
But it's pressure being exerted on Cuomo from the traditional Democratic based that might count the most.
"I think Governor Cuomo understands it. A lot of folks are pressing him to get into the mix and try to raise the wage at the state level, but I think this combination of action in Washington and action in Albany is the best possible thing that could be happening," said Michael King, Strong Economy For All Coalition Executive Director.
Despite Republicans not backing the measure here in New York, at least two GOP candidates running for the state Senate, Bob Cohen of Westcher and Eric Ulrich of Queens, have given conditional support for a minimum wage increase.

I just tried to purchase something using all of the 20% coupons posted on here but each one returned with a invalid code error. This is my first time ordering from them. Anyone else having the same problem?
I just tried to purchase something using all of the 20% coupons posted on here but each one returned with a invalid code error. This is my first time ordering from them. Anyone else having the same problem?
I used the Code: EATTRORNEY this morning. It worked fine.
Are you trying to purchase more then just one item? If you try to do that it will pop up that error.
I just try that code without any success. I also confirmed the number of units that I'm ordering.
i've tried a bunch of discount codes on a number of products, and it seems that they block out certain discounts on certain products, so it's probably just what you were trying to order. dont look to them for help getting any discounts either. i gave them a call and asked about an expired discount code to see what they would have to say(i didnt want to get a good one knocked off) and their support people dont even know about the discounts, let alone that they are being reposted all over the internet.
Damn, I was trying to order a Palm V with the 20% coupon (I even try to put some other small palm accessories using the same coupons without any success).
GOT IT!!! didnt know that i needed to create a account under the mobshop community partners ...
Yep that would have done it. Now stock up while you can before they delete the codes
I have used the links for quicken and eattorney and they worked fine. Seems deja and mixture are the only pages that are active but the code does not seem to work for them. Anyone have any luck?
I ordered a Palm V a few days ago. The coupon worked fine but only if you buy just 1 item. I think I used the one through iVillage. I wish they would send me a shipping notification or better yet, if the item would arrive!
I tried all the codes...cant get any of 'em to work...How do I get a community partners account...or is it the same thing as a normal account??
I just bought 3 things a little bit earlier. /www.mobshop.com/xs/eat/ still works (promo code EATTORNEY). http://www.accompany.com/nytimes (promo code GROUPNYT)also still works. Hopefully Apex can find some more working codes. I myself do buy a lot from mobshop aka Accompany.
Just keep in mind when you are using a promo code you can only buy one item.

YES!! I finally got the eattorney to work with mobshop...I got the Toshiba sd6109c DVD player...what a deal...thanks apex (nicemann too)
Yep that is a very good deal. I picked one up myself.
Has anyone tried this coupon recently? Does it still work? And if it does, will it work with the $25 Visa rebate?
how do you get a community partners account?
Too bad the Toshiba 6109C doesn't play CD-R VCDs. At least not the ones I've tried. I did get it to work with CD-RW discs and they play fine. Guess it's probably the silver surface it likes. Anyway, anyone notice now the Mobshop DVDs are way expensive.
Dang talking about bringing back an old topic.
Well in the "old" days the partners use to have their own codes. For example 4 partner sites may have a 20% off code. You just have to sign up for a new account each time. I used the same email address and same credit card. You can keep signing up and keep getting the discounts. For example I bought quite a few DVD players with the 20% off. That was from the same partner.
What's the general consensus as far as getting another code to work if you've used one in the past? Just create another account under one of the partner sites with a new handle and different card and you're set or do you basically have to know someone that is willing to allow you to use their card?
So does that trick still work? Seeing how you mentioned you just bought a Palm V??? Or did you just do the $25 off $100 deal?
[This message has been edited by CuriousG (edited 07-23-2000).]
it's not working, the EATTRORNEY is not working when I am trying to buy the smartmedia card for my Nomad II...what's going on? I logged in and everything....???HELP!!!
looks like both those are expired now...... does anyone know where to get new coupon codes? i really really need one
Holy crap, this one's from back in the DAY! People, check the date of the first post; this one's five months old. I am almost certain there are no longer %-off methods for Accompan...err, Mobshop. $25 is the best you'll do, buying with your Visa card.

Students in Professor Johanna Poethig's painting and mural class at Cal State Monterey Bay are helping to brighten a park and learning valuable lessons in the process.
They are creating a series of murals that will cover a 300-foot wall at the new Pajaro Neighborhood Park – a 4.9-acre parcel in the largely farm worker community that straddles Monterey and Santa Cruz counties.
It will be years before they even graduate from high school, but hundreds of sixth-grade students are already planning for college, thanks to a program at CSU Monterey Bay.
On Dec. 4, more than 500 youngsters from four schools in the Alisal Union School District and one from the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District visited campus. They promised to do their best in school, graduate from high school and pursue a college degree as part of the University Promise of CSU Monterey Bay.

Aaron Rodgers and Illegal Hits: When Will the NFL Walk the Talk?
When I read that Chicago Bears defensive end Julius Peppers was fined $10,000 by the NFL today for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Sunday's NFC Championship, one thought and one thought only went through my head:
For a player who recently signed a huge free agent contract that could total $91.5 million, $10,000 is like pennies to you and me. During the regular season, the NFL apparently made it crystal clear to teams and players that hits that involve the leading of the helmet would not be tolerated and would be met with stiff fines and possible suspensions.
If $10,000 is a stiff fine to multi-millionaires, then I'm the King of England.
Look at Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison (who the Packers will face in Super Bowl XLV). He has been fined for times for illegal hits and the fines total $125,000 for an average of roughly $31,000 per offense. Again, pocket change to the millionaire players of the NFL.
But let's get back to Peppers, and more importantly for Packer fans, Rodgers.
This is not the first time Peppers has rung Rodgers' "bell." In a regular season game at Lambeau Field in 2008, Peppers was flagged for a bruising hit on Rodgers out of bounds when he played for the Carolina Panthers. That hit can be seen here: Julius Peppers Nails Aaron Rodgers

Review: Child victims and restorative justice: A needs-rights model
from the article by Bill Lyons in Law & Politics Review:
....Combining the right to participate from the Convention on the Rights of the Child with an empirical analysis of a child's need to regain control, participation emerges as a critically important need and right for at least three reasons. First, for immediate instrumental reasons, participation is both an immediate coping mechanism and is expected to improve criminal justice outcomes. Second, for longer term developmental reasons, meaningful participation in experiential learning opportunities is a developmental step toward empowering young adults to master the problem solving skills necessary to make democracy both possible and desirable.

The Emancipation Proclamation was the desperate act by a POTUS to generate support for a war that had lost it's popularity. If Lincoln was truly concerned about slavery, why didn't he issue it in 1861, instead of waiting until 1865? The next Executive Order he issued was to form the Freedman's Bureau which in effect was the first welfare program established in the US. Slavery was already a dying institution in the South due to the economic problems associated with it. In point of fact, less than 10% of Southerners even owned slaves, and a large majority of the Southern population was opposed to it's existence. If the Confederacy had been allowed to go it's way, slavery would have been abolished anyhow. The idea of mistreatment of slaves was a false image presented by Harriet Beecher Stowe, who had never even been South of the Mason Dixon Line, and was a total work of fiction. In point of fact, most plantation owners fired overseers ( many of whom came from Northern states) who mistreated the slaves on their plantations. Just like a modern day farmer wouldn't take a baseball bat to his John Deere, plantation owners wouldn't mistreat their cattle, horses, or slaves. If it had been as Stowe portrayed it, why is it that so many freed slaves took the last names of their former masters, and remained on the lands where they had toiled??????????
As a side note, there is not a single incident of a Southern owned slave ship ever transporting slaves from Africa to this country. And the slaves themselves were already slaves in their native lands, sold to English, Dutch, and Yankee traders by their own people. Was it wrong, certainly, but the Bible itself, makes it known that slavery has existed as long as recorded history, and it even occurs today in certain parts of the world.

American made, how many bicycle companies can say that about their frames? The answer: not many! Intense Cycles is known for innovating and manufacturing high quality mountain bikes, out of sunny Southern California! The Intense Tracer 29 frame is the perfect canvas for creating your dream 29"er. While others modify their 26" frame designs to accommodate a 29" wheel, Intense designed a frame around the 29" wheel. The Tracer VP received accolades all around due to its magnificent handling and goat like climbing. Therefore, Intense Cycles used the Tracer VP as inspiration or rather a foundation to create a 29" bike that handled the same with all the benefits of a 29"er. The big wheels produce a "float over anything" feel, while the agility of the Tracer VP shines through. Go ahead have your cake, and eat it too; we won't tell.

Best Uses
Comments about Intense Cycles Intense Tracer 29 Frame:
Feels like a freeride bike with xc capabilities.
Nice slack head angle is hard to find on bikes like this
I like the modular dropout system for geometry adjustments and axle configuration swaps
Adjustable spring rate on the shock is nice to have.
Direct mount front derailleur is the only way to go.
Zerk fitting for lubing the pivots is really cool
The wheelbase long but it is a 29er and an angle set would allow fine tuning of the ride quality.

Chart the progress of different ice ages through the history of our planet, from Snowball Earth hundreds of millions of years ago to the recent ice ages.
As the Earth circles the sun, its orbit changes slightly and so does it angle of rotation. When the right wobble in our rotation combines with the right orbit, the Earth is, and will again be, plunged into an ice age but maybe not for a few thousand years.
