Baldwin Book Rails Against Courts
In his new book "A Promise to Ourselves: A Journey Through Fatherhood and Divorce", Baldwin recounts his contentious divorce from Kim Basinger -- and how the brutal custody battle almost destroyed his relationship with his 13-year-old daughter, Ireland.
Baldwin discusses how after the now infamous voice mail was released (when he called Ireland thoughtless little pig), he nearly lost his will to live. He writes, "Driving up the Taconic Parkway, heading to an inn in the Berkshire Mountains, I began to think about what little town I would repair to in order to commit suicide - what semi-remote Massachusetts state park could I hike deep into and overdose there? When I returned to New York, the thought of jumping out the window of my apartment was with me every night for weeks."
As for his estrangement from Ireland, Baldwin says, "When you lose custody of your child, so much of what is magical and priceless in this experience is taken away from you. The moments still occur, but you are no longer there to share them. You find yourself constantly wondering what your child is doing now. An overwhelming pain comes from the knowledge that she is learning life through so many people's eyes, but least of all your own."
The actor is attempting to recast himself from bad dad to celebrity crusader for fathers' rights. The book discusses so-called "Parental Alienation Syndrome" and how many men are being railroaded in the judicial system by their bitter exes who use the children of relationships as pawns.
"Unfortunately, there are thousands of children like Ireland," says Dr. D. Lorandos, a psychologist and practicing attorney for Parental Alienation cases. "Parents' anger toward one another is tearing these children apart, and judges don't understand how to recognize when one parent is poisoning the child against the other."
Critics say Parental Alienation Syndrome is a cop-out. Some men are just aren't good fathers -- and keeping them at a distance protects their children.
So which is it?

Whoever has more money and willing to fight winsin the COurt, but not in the long run. Living well is the best revenge to the toxic spouse. I am glad to see Alec Baldwin be successful and content, while Kim Basinger is just toxic. Judges have too full of dockets and there is not enough psychs and help out there. Thank God he got a divorce so the kid doesn't have to see that everyday.
People who are experiencing parental alienation reach a point that is frustrating and distructive to themselves and others. We are lucky all he said was "little pig". THere are people that go through this who have no control they end up giving up in many way, becuase of poeple like Lori (who recently posted) who don't understnad the concept and the depth of hurt that this causes to us. Now why don't you look back and think about all the bad things YOU have said out of anger, I'll bet you went beyong "little pig"!
Before you comment maybe you should research PAS for at least a week. Then come back and comment. If you can't say something desent, then you are an alienator yourself!
It's not one parent over the other, it's the attorneys that create the problem. The only goal of a Family Law attorney is to make money!! I was represented by Marc Vincent Kaplan. My case was a multi-million dollar case, as well. I was physically beaten by three of my ex-husband's employees and Mark did nothing to protect me. When I left my ex, it was like leaving a white collar street gang. Mark's invested interest was to protect his former employer Sorrel Trope. The attorneys don't care about you, least of all your children. You are nothing but a joke they can share when they hang out with opposing counsel. In celebrity cases, the attorneys are insanely jealous of their clients. Attorneys find "their stage" in a courtroom, because no one else would bother to pay to see them on the "big screen."
THE INADEQUATE, BADLY NEEDED COURT SYSTEM AND IT'S BIAS, and many times Kangaroo court systems….IF the man you are divorcing is a lawyer and you are trying to protect your child when you yourself suffered emotional and physical abuse. I have been going through a court system first for divorce and now for guardianship of my, our special needs adorable son. When Alex Baldwin uses negative adjectives to describe the court system, I can certainly identify! There is little recourse if you are a spouse who doesn't hold the money, the power, and although caregiving and decisions are typically given to the mother, especial with special needs child, in a court where the husband is part of that system ….well it simply doesn't happen. It's like a Vegas weekend, who's the judge, who's the lawyer, and if you're fortunate to get the best than you'll do pretty good. If you have the ex-that is part of that system, that being the arm of the law that is self protecting (the legal system), it is HELL! Again, when I heard Alex Baldwin talk about his disdaine for the legals system, the process, the extentions, etc. I agree with him and feel that pain! I also know what it's like to "gamble" when you pass your child over for visitation in hopes that no derogatory words are used, etc. In my case my son is unable to sit walk or talk,, but communicates through expression. He is bright and handsome and trapped. This same system, that did not protect his rights after I left his father for divorce is now threatening to put him in a group home which is the plan of the father. The father so many years ago, the lawyer who said he was a "good father"!! I wanted my son to have as many loving relationships as possible, especially since life was going to be altered with his special needs. I did not run off to california like I should have, I stayed and tried for many years not to taint my son's opinion of his father until recently, in our guardianship fight. I have spent 3 years in hell, Analogy being,( It's like hearing that your son was visitng Turkey, got caught with hashish, which he said was not his, and was going to thrown in jail for his life and I am flying over there to go up against the legal system and try to advocate for him!!) That is what it is like for me in this system where my ex is part of it. He is not only a lawyer, he is a wills and probate lawyer in that particular court!@!!! So when Alex Baldwin talks about Parental Alienation, I don't hear anything about taking respondsibility for his outbursts, anger that may lead to a parent to want to protect their daughter from that kind of abuse. I believe there is a fine line,,, typically kids as they grow are smart enough to sift through the propoganda, usually. I had been a step parent to his children from a first marriage and saw essentially that, happen. They recognized that their father had issues, but they wanted some semblance of a relationship with him. I do think it wrong to deny time with a parent. To use the child as a pawn. There are so many layers of issues in this story, as with Alex's…..I do believe even with all of the negative battles even in my life to advocate for my son's life and finally his placement and outcome, that I believe the irony is: HE LOVES HIS DAD AND AT TIMES WANTS TO BE WITH HIM,,,,, THAT he understands both of our faults and ultimately negotiates his own feels about us. This of course does not negate the fact that I as his mother will continue to fight and advocate for his rights as a special needs young man. An area that gets ignored. This is about my Son's future,, and this is about Alex's daughter's life with her father and her time with him. In my opinion the court systems, especially family law, and the probate court need strict monitoring, evaluations and not by "more" lawyers. The written documented word has taken on a life of it's own, one of seemingly validation. THat is, ….if it's accepted in court, that must be right! If the Lawyer says it, the judge makes the judgement that it's ……the truth. I have never experienced such purgery, lies, and lawyers not being reprimanded for this behavior. If it were lay people, pro pers, they would be thrown in Jail. The "justice that "I" believed in as a young girl growning up in Wisconsin, ceases to exist in my experience. The mismanagement of lawyer fees, double billing, not being able to discern what is what is nothing short of an atrocity and crime!
Alec Baldwin was in the news.
Kim Basinger won, he did lose
custody of the child they had.
He didn't start off as a bad dad.
But mean Mommy Kim has no heart;
father/child bond was torn apart.
Alienation was Kim's goal.
Her sex was her 'ace in the hole.'
For some odd reason, don't you see,
courts always favor the mommy.
Kim's denial of Al's access
caused him to react in excess.
He called his kid a pig in rage.
Kim made sure this news made front page.
How many parents, in a huff,
talk to their children sometimes rough?
All of us, I'm sorry to state.
But Kim took it to the Fourth Estate.
So Alec looks like the bad guy
for Kim giving him a 'black eye.'
My ex and his mother continually referred to our son as "a fat slob" and wanted him aborted before he was born, yet he got custody. The problem is with the courts, not the individuals. I am sure both of these people were at fault, equally attempting to pull the child apart. To bad, this child will end up destroyed, or worse, dead, from the acts of the parents.
I pity the poor child.
Rather than irresponsibly promoting the generalized hatred of fathers/men, based on perhaps a few mistake a dad has made out of fear, frustration, desperation and so forth,……focus on how we/society can help parents cope through this painful and difficult curse of divorce.
True, divorce lawyers ( aka - ambulance chasers ) would lose into the hundreds of millions of dollars annually if they would no longer profit from the destruction of families, but more importantly, childrens dreams.
Having divorced an ex who suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder ( she rages, lies, is violent, profits from fabricated "victim " status, has seriously battered our kids, is narcissistic, distorts reality just to name a few fine traits ), I can understand Baldwin's frustration, hurt, confusion, loss of hope etc…..
My ex-wife appeared as a kind , gentle woman, however, behind closed doors, she could instantly fly into a rage, and convince you it was your fault that you "made her hit you across the head with a belt buckle",….to name some of the more dociule rages.
Since the Canadian judicial system appears to be as warped and sick as the American system ,….
my children, are condemend to live with a mother ( who needs intensive psychiatric care ) who neglects, punishes, verbally, mentally and physically abuses the children, who has sent the children to Youth Protection "boot camps" ( read: for the most part juvenile Nazi concentration camps ) for expressing their DESIRE to SEE their dad…the whole with the help of her lawyer ( who my child support payments paid for ) , the "feminist slanted" "social" network, and a plethora of other dis-interested, self-serving "professionals" who profit from childrens suffering….
Does PARENTAL ALIENTION exist ?
Perhaps Kim Basinger's behaviour behind closed doors does not match her pretty looks;
If we stopped broad - brushing all dads as monsters for a moments of weakness, as he possibly ill-verbalized hurt he may be feeling, while womens groups lobby to forgive the cold-blooded murderer of the likes of 5 child-assassin Andrea Yates.
If writers examine both sides of the coin , before jumping on one incident and exploiting it for their own profit/interests;
We CRIMINALLY CHARGED those who denigrate and destroy a childs image of the other parent, which in the long term teaches the child to do the same in their future relationships.
We CRIMINALLY CHARGED those "professionals" who teach or encourage a parents to employ the warped tactics of PARENTAL ALIENATION,…
and I can go on,….and on,…and on.
but 'nuff said for now.
For the sake of ALL children, ie those who are tasked with taking care of us in our "golden" years,….
PLEASE speak out against ALL forms of child abuse, INCLUDING PARENTAL ALIENATION.
Write letters to your goverments, senators, all elected representatives, until EQUAL PARENTING is the norm and not the exception.
KARMA does exist, no matter what your faith is……
Peace out
.. the majority of you will never have any real understanding of what an alienated parent or child experiences ..my children and I are equally victims of "parental alienation" ..i have never raised my voice or my hand to my children in anger , i have loved them dearly like no other parent can , yet i have not seen them in almost 3 years and i live within a 2 min. walk of their current residence ,,they espouse hatred of me and my family and cannot provide any explanations for doing so ..my every attempt at reconciliation is met with harrassment complaints , protection orders, stalking complaints and so on and so on and so on from my ex-wife … family court is a disgraceful entity that protects an abusive, bullying and intimidating parent , ..family court has no interest in protecting children , it would rather delay and intentionally interfere with any efforts to establish a normal parental relationship with an alienated parent with the hope that the children will get old enough so that they will not have to deal with the issue .. family courts only purpose is to delay to the point where nothing can and will be done , they the judges throw their hands in the air and say "well, what do you want me to do about it" ..it is disgraceful and shameful
While some parents might alienate another, there is no such syndrome. The scientific community rejects it and will never accept it. Gardner was self-published, never had his theories tested, was pro-pedophilia.
PAS is most harmful b/c abusers use it to gain custody of kids. Why would you allow them to do this? How will you distinguish the kid who was abused and the kid who was "alienated"? Why are kids who were sexually or physically abused by Dad then given custody to him?
The Fathers Rigths agenda is this-
Presumptive Joint Custody (even to violent dads)
Lower or no child support
PAS, MMS (malicious mother syndrome), SAID (sexual allegations in divorce)
Domestic violence is mutual (it is NOT)
Attack services for female victims of violence (sue shelters, attack VAWA, limit restraining orders)
DISCREDIT WOMEN - call women false accusers and change public perception in domestic violence, child abuse and rape
Research PAS and the fathers rights groups before touting their misguided propaganda machine.
the "family" courts, govt, and malicious mother all have an agenda, albeit, for different reasons, but it seems to boil down to phasing fathers out of the child's life except for the father as a source of money.
there is absolutely no concern for truth, malice…in the "family" court when it comes to mothers lying, stealing, using the child….even though the court orders alludes to punishing the perpetrator of these problems, mothers are rarely punished, which only encourages them and entices them to be more bold in their maliciousness. Fathers are easily punished (along with the child) for the mother's complaints, "concerns", and false claims… then people wonder why fathers are so angry, who wouldn't be, and malicous mothers know this and don't care as long as they are yanking their ex's chain whenever they feel like being mean or malicous, and any reaction by the dad is then even more fodder to take to the court and complain how "we don't get along, so take away more time between him and the child".
in other words it is a no win situation for the dad, no matter how well he tries to get along for the child's sake and get on with his life. His ex will deny "visitation", make the child unavailable for phone calls, and the "family" courts will do nothing to the mother when this is brought to their attention. Yet if the dad loses a job, is sick, falls on hard times, he is thrown in jail. Fair, huh?
fathers and children are being victimized every second of the day and night that they have to live with these unjust decisions that deprive fathers of rights to be part of their own child's life, because the mother's malice and desire to punish the dad through the child.
this is nothing more than a form of modern day slavery, where women ONLY are "victims" and men ONLY are abusers. This is not a court, but a kangaroo court where up is down, etc, and double standards in favor of the mother abound, so that more litigation will result, when the father is force through seek justice where there is none. The child is deprived of a loving parent growing up and is used as a pawn, all for the malicious mother's convenience and need for control. (Isn't rape defined as a contol over another person? rather than about sex, how is this any differnent?) and it is all justied by the subjective "best interest of the child", which always seems to be more the "best interest of the mother".

Consumer Electronics Show: Stocks that Catch the Eye
Nate is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
CES, the Consumer Electronics Show, is over for 2013. Another year past of gadgets, devices, gizmos and such, all designed to tempt people into spending money or making a statement about themselves. I'm sure it's a good, but exhausting, time for the attendees.
This year, though, there seems to be a belief that the idea is less about pitching big, game-changing items than about the smaller things that can catch the eye. With Apple and Google skipping out this year some of the media hype has gone away. Even if there are products out there that are interesting, it takes a more committed attendee to find them, since the big boys aren't shoving them right in people's faces.
Still, market-wise, if you pay attention to the press coverage of the event, you can find some interesting products that could be real movers. It's easy to say that the big boys are where to go, but with those firms staying away, there's a chance for the smaller (relatively) to shine and catch some attention. With attention comes, hopefully, publicity and thence sales. At least, that's the way it's supposed to work. No company should be dropping $100,000 on a booth without hoping to generate buzz, after all.
If a firm, smaller or larger, does catch the eye of the media, there's a solid chance it will see a spike in sales. That can lead to further visibility and an increase in market share. That's where investors come in. There are firms that are showing off products now that can be expected to grow quickly in the next year based on what happened over the last few days in Las Vegas. It's not a matter of getting in on the ground floor, if a firm is at CES that stage is past, but it could be matter of getting in while the getting is good.
Here's a few firms, large and small, that have caught my attention as I've been watching the coverage of CES this week:
LG (NYSE: LG): Not a small player, by any measure, LG seems to have caught people's eyes at the show with three products. The Korea-based electronics firm showed off a curving 55-inch television (among a lot of TV products on display this time), a self-cleaning oven and a square robotic vacuum that all look good and should, if there's any justice at all, do well for the firm. The firm's stock has climbed 2% over the course of the show and more than 20% in the last year.
NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA): NVIDIA caught people's attention with the announcement with the firm's display of a combination tablet/console game/controller called 'Shield'. NVIDIA has long been involved in the video game market through its brand of graphics cards for personal computers, but moving into the game market itself is a bit of a surprise. The coverage I've seen makes the system look good. It's an Android-based platform that incorporates a lot of different tech-concepts in one location. The last week hasn't treated NVIDIA's stock very well, but it could go places if Shield captures some market share.
Netgear (NASDAQ: NTGR): Netgear surprised a few people by announcing a TV box that enabled Google TV. See? There's more than one way for the big boys to make an appearance. Anyway, the new system, called NeoTV Prime, is on the market now and isn't too expensive. The firm also announced that four of its products are now using Sling technology and can work with Slingbox for consumer's televisions. Netgear has put itself on the edge of the just-beginning streaming television revolution. That's not a bad place to be.
Those are three that caught my eye. It's an amazing world where firms like LG, NVIDIA and Netgear are considered to be smaller players. They aren't, of course, no one's saying that these firms are the classic 'two guys in a garage' sort of thing. However, anytime Apple, Google and Amazon stop drawing all the air out of the room, it leaves space for other firms, worthy firms, to make up some ground.
So go give those products a look. I think they're good, and therefore investment-worthy. If you want to get involved in the growing consumer electronics market, these three might well be worth consideration. They show potential for growth while being affordable investments. You could do much worse.

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
The grapes for this Chardonnay came exclusively from our Wildcat Mountain Vineyard, owned by Steve MacRostie and his partners Nancy and Tony Lilly. Here the vines dig into the sparse volcanic soil and stand firm against the strong winds that race in off of the Pacific Ocean most afternoons. This fog-shrouded mountaintop vineyard is a classic Sonoma Coast site, cool and challenging, and produces wines of great distinction.
WINEMAKING NOTES: The grapes went direct to press as whole clusters. The resulting juice was cold settled, racked off its press lees, and moved directly to barrel for a cool fermentation. The wine was then aged in these same French oak barrels, 25 percent of which were new, for 11 months. The fermentation lees were stirred several times once malolactic conversion was complete, and then the wine was left to slumber. After enough time had passed for the flavors to fully develop, the best barrels from each lot were selected to form the Wildcat Mountain Vineyard blend. The wine was bottled on August 6, 2007.
TASTING NOTES: Classic pale straw in color, with enticing aromas of clover honey and ripe pineapple. On the palate, it offers appealing tropical fruit, citrus, and spiced baked apple flavors. Dry and mouthfilling, this Chardonnay possesses sufficient structure to age for a few years, but is delicious now.
"Shows rich tropical fruit, with layers of tangerine, nectarine, fig and honey that are supple, full bodied, smooth and elegant, ending with a complex mix of fruit and light toasty oak. Drink now through 2012. 957 cases made."

Don't think they ever opened up the process for anyone interested from the outside. Thanks, Ben, for your efforts on behalf of Putnam Co. Football. You found out through your battles with the administration that nobody really cares about the football program here outside of 4-6 people. What you accomplished here we all appreciate because you did it on your own with little or no help from the administration.

FootballTopFan(c) would like to congratulate Kyle Gourley on his selection as new Head Coach of the Putnam County Eagles !!!
We wish you good luck and success.

John Lewis hails TV ad for social media boost
John Lewis has declared its recently launched Christmas TV advert an early success after claiming the spot achieved its "strongest" reaction on social media to date.
The advert, which launched at the weekend (10 November), has generated some 6,790 likes and 1,340 shares on Facebook so far and was trending last week on Twitter as buzz for the hotly anticipated spot grew, the retailer claims.
More than half (51 per cent) of UK Twitter users have received at least at one mention of the brand since it was first revealed on Friday (9 November), according to YouGov's social media measurement tool SoMa. Additionally, the advert has generated more than 89,000 mentions on the micro-blogging site during this period.
The retailer says the launch was the "strongest" it had ever achieved for a TV spot, adding that the video has already achieved more than 1 million views on YouTube .
The ad, which John Lewis claims has reached 14 million through PR coverage, shows a snowman couple in a family garden only for one snowman to disappear the next morning. It follows him on a journey through woodlands and across rivers until he eventually reaches the high street and enters John Lewis to buy his beloved a matching red scarf and gloves.
The final scenes show the snow couple reunited and smiling while a voiceover says: "Go the extra mile this year."
Readers' comments (4)
Truly lovely Advert. I just hope it snows heavy this year as the young boy next door always builds a snowman and I take his photograph with it and I just hope there will be enough snow for two this tear after seeing your lovely advert.
Well done whoever put this lovely advert
to gether certaiinly worth the money it has put John lewis well on the map
Best Christmas Advert ever!
It certainly gets you in the Christmassy mood - chocolate box Christmas advert .. very clever
I adore this commercial - the best one that they have made yet - the expression on the snowman's face is so realistic and life-like and having read how they put the commercial together in a national newspaper over the weekend, makes it more amazing! Congratulations to the production company and - Happy Christmas John Lewis!
when the ad. came on the tv, I sat transfixed!!!!! By the end of it I had tears of Happiness!!!!

A drop-off line at one elementary school got violent when two dads started duking it out. They were punching each other right in front of other parents and kids.
"Everyone just kept going to the window and then my teacher said stay in your seats and don't look," said Angelina Espinoza.
But the 9-year-old West Handley Elementary School student said it was just too hard not to look.
"I was a little bit scared that they'll like go in the school and start fighting," she said.
It happened Wednesday during morning drop-off. According to a Fort Worth police report, one man got in front of the other, sped up and wouldn't let him change lanes.
The two men got out of their cars. One man kicked the other's car and the fight was on.
"Some kid named Angel said, 'Look, they're fighting.' And I said where and I saw the two men fighting in the parking lot," Espinoza said.
It was in full view of many parents, the principal and plenty of curious young eyes.
"They were just like grabbing each other's heads trying to push them on the floor and then like out of nowhere one of the men went on the car and then they started punching each other," Espinoza said.
As they fought, the principal ordered everyone inside. The school was placed on lockdown until it was over.
Parents admit the drop-off line can be frustrating.
"It's hard. You have to wait in a long line right here and we have to go on one by one. And you have to get on the street line. You can't be in the middle," said Patricia Valenzuela.
Duke Kirby goes inside the school just to avoid the line of cars. But he can't understand how two adults would come to blows over it.
"I just think that's on the parents. I couldn't see it being that frustrating," he said.
Both men were given citations by the Fort Worth Police Department for disorderly conduct and fighting in a public place.

Image: Chris Knutson
On the southeastern shore of Bolivia's Lake Titicaca stand the ancient ruins of the city of Tiwanaku. Here, the remains of monolithic rock sculptures and buildings over 1,500 years old can be seen. What makes this site so incredible is not merely the size and weight of the stone used by these pre-Inca builders, but the fact that much of that stone originated far from the ruins – around 55 miles (90 kilometers) across the wide blue lake!
How these huge rocks, some of them weighing 40 tons, were transported across the famous lake – home to many indigenous tribes who live on its shores and in its floating villages of Lake Titicaca – has long been a mystery. Some, including photographer Chris Knutson, who took these photographs, speculate that the heavy boulders were ferried across the lake in reed boats. In fact, Knutson wrote an undergraduate thesis on the subject while he was at the University of Pennsylvania.
Some years later, Dr. Alexei Vranich, the director of archaeological investigations at Tiwanaku, contacted Knutson. Vranich offered him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fly down to Bolivia and join him and a group of volunteers and researchers, including project director Paul Harmon, to test out this theory in real life. Naturally, Knutson accepted, and in 2002, he became part of the Qala Yampu expedition (as the project was called) to see if a reed boat really could transport a boulder weighing several tons across Lake Titicaca.

The Challenge Begins
Fight 5 Grim Soldiers. Go to the right side by the way.
Fight to Survive
Now fight 6 Grim Fighters
The Battle's Heating Up
Now fight 10 Grim Fire Mages
There's going to be a room with some coins. Yeah don't go for the coins (they don't do anything either).
After that room, you get to a room with a really small door. There should also be a 'Highbiscus' and two 'Lowtus'. In order to fit through the door, you need to grow smaller. Fighting the Highbiscus will make you larger while fighting the Lowtus will make you smaller. Fight several Lotuses and then you should fit through the door.
A Close Shave
Fight 8 Grim Shelletons. If you try to exit from the room, you'll 'die' and then return to the room again
Once you get to the next room, there are two giant gaping holes on each side, so try to avoid them and walk through the middle
Eye Spy a Victim
Fight 6 Flying Spyballs
In the next room- DON'T PULL THE LEVER. Like actually unless you want some nice soft squishy spikes to fall on you
And don't forget the falling bridge!
In the room after that, you're going to have to press some buttons in rapid succession. The fire that comes out of the walls won't harm you by the way. After you finish pressing all the buttons, click on the princess lady on the side
Help Me!
Fight Princess Angler
Get Your Hands Dirty
Fight 10 Grim Ectomancers
A ROCKY Battle
Oh man this is so punny ITS ROCKING MY WORLD OH MAN but anyway, fight the Fallen Emperor and Fallen Light Statues until you get the key. Also if you click the second statue you can get to the bridge- walking across it 100 times will give you a badge!
This time around, fight the Highbiscuses until you can reach the button. Click the button once you can, and walk through the door. The button on the left is for RESETTING YOUR SIZE- YOU WANT THE ONE ON THE TOP RIGHT
Soul-d on Defeat
Fight Grim Souldiers until you get 50 Grim Souls- they drop more than 1 sometimes
In the next room, pull the lever on the left- aka the one that says 'Do Not Pull'
Take this path in the next room (man its annoying finding those holes)
The Key to Help Me
Fight Grim Shelletons until you get the Princess Key. Also, if you click on the candle on the right twice, you'll get a trap door. It may not let you go down until you have the key.
Once you're there you'll get to a bridge- the same one as the one in A Rocky Battle. Walk across it 100 times and BAM- you get a badge!
Help Me Again!
Defeat the Angler again and then pull the chain
More falling into holes…
Overheated Hero
Fight 5 Grim Fire Mages
This time around, you want to fight Highbiscus until you can reach the button, click it, and then fight the Lowtuses until you can fit through the door
The next room has a lot of buttons and levers. All the chains will release spikes onto you, as well as the levers AND those two buttons! Basically press every single button until this little dude comes out of hiding
The Blade-Breaker
Fight 3 Grim Lichs (so you could fight all of them if you want)
Anti-Magic Warrior
Fight Grim Fighters- note that they actually aren't 'anti-magic'.

I Command You, Help Me!
Fight the Ghost King Angler. Gosh what is UP with these things
Once you're done you'll unlock the store. Then there's several things you can do from here on out. Also watch your step- there's another hole there for kicks and giggles.
Now if you exit the store on the side and you've finished walking the bridge, go down the stairs…
If you go down the stairs, you get to some fancy place where you can get drops for the store and complete certain quests.

The National Weather Service is predicting snow for the Washington area Thursday, meaning that, of course, commuters are in a panic.
"Close them now! Close them now!" AAA Mid-Atlantic spokesman Lon Anderson joked about the region's roads. "We don't know how to deal with snow in this town. The thought of snow causes such fear and panic that we should just close the roads now."
But regional transportation agencies have no plans to close roads, and Metro said it plans to operate normally, even though the National Weather Service has said the area is under a "winter storm watch" Thursday.
Transportation officials said they could not pretreat roads Wednesday with a salt solution to prevent them from icing over because of the rain.
However, the Virginia Department of Transportation plans to pretreat interstates and major roads in the morning, and both VDOT and the Maryland State Highway Administration are standing by with one eye on the weather forecast, ready to plow and salt as needed.
"Right now, of course, the focus will be the [Interstate] 95 corridor and south of Prince William County," said VDOT spokeswoman Jennifer McCord.
The agency plans to bring in about 650 crews to manage the roads in the event of snow, she said. Among the areas where crews are being mobilized are Prince William, Loudoun and Fairfax counties. If there is more than 2 inches of snow, the crews will also plow subdivisions.
Central Virginia likely will get hit with the bulk of the storm, said Andy Woodcock, a forecaster with the National Weather Service. While the District could get more than 5 inches -- qualifying for a "watch" -- D.C. is more likely to get between 1 and 3 inches -- an "advisory" -- or even less than an inch.
Farther north in Montgomery County, there is likely to be very little snow, he said.
What makes this storm potentially more problematic, though, is that it is expected to hit just before evening rush hour begins.
"Just the slight amount of snow can cause mayhem and pandemonium on the Washington area's roads," Anderson said. "We don't drive in it very well."
Maryland State Highway Administration spokesman Charlie Gischlar urged drivers to call 511 or check md511.org for updates on road conditions, and McCord reminded drivers to keep speeds low and to avoid driving during the height of the storm if possible.
And no matter how much or how little snow, the D.C. government is prepared, Mayor Vincent Gray said Wednesday. "We are at the ready."

Repurposing My Blog
So, I've had this blog for a while now. And originally, I had just been posting pictures of things I thought the world needed. Pictures to make you laugh, to make you think, to make you appreciate life—things I felt I needed myself. After a while, the process of passing around someone else's thoughts and art became unfulfilling. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of great images and statements floating around out there. I am very appreciative to have a medium through which the world can share them.
But lately, I've felt as though my head might explode with thoughts. So I've decided that I want to start incorporating my own voice and experiences into my blog. And instead of focusing my posts on recycling the images and words of others, I want to start using the posts of others to accentuate my own thoughts and feelings. I think that sounds good, how about you?
I'm not promising that this is going to be interesting to read or that everyone will always agree with what I have to say. And, by all means, if you don't agree with something I say, let's have a conversation about it! I love to hear new opinions and I don't mind a bit of criticism. But please, let's play nice! ;) And let's have fun while we do it!

"I woke up to multiple explosions."
That was how Charlie Johnston described his Monday morning, when a fire engulfed the garage of his Long Grove home.
Charlie, his brother Henry, their father Mark and his wife Lourdes all escaped without injury, and they expect the rest of the structure to be salvageable.
The family, which lives on the 3200 block of Victorian Drive, awoke at about 6:30 a.m. to the sounds of four blasts, likely the tires of two cars in their garage exploding.
Henry, who is about to begin his freshman year at Buffalo Grove High School, and Charlie, who will be a junior, have bedrooms directly above the garage, but said they saw no smoke or flames until they got outside.
"It just went from smoke to flames," Mark said.
They fled immediately and called 911. Safely outside the home after the flames were doused, the Johnston family credited the fast response of the Long Grove Fire Protection District and neighboring departments with saving the majority of their home.
The Lake County Sheriff's Office blocked state Route 53 from state Route 83 to Victorian Drive, but opened it shortly after.
The fire's cause and an estimate on damage were not yet available. The two cars in the garage were charred and a third car in the driveway has a singed rear bumper.
"We're very lucky," Lourdes said.

- Worst service....everFoodie678543Dined on 9/17/2014Waited 30 minutes for water. Had to flag her down for another bottle if wine. She seemed inconvenienced by us.Special Features:
- Perfect choice on Special OccasionOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/17/2014We decided on Mizuna after reading the on-line menu and seeing that both vegetarian and meat-lovers would be satisfied. Also that small plates were available. Perfect service! Two of us shared a salad and special entree and one ate an appetizer. Portions were ample for this. The preparation and presentation was just beautiful. Highly recommend!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A favorite for special occasionsEstebanDined on 9/12/2014My fiancé and I had our first Valentine's Day dinner at Mizuna and were so impressed that we swore we'd make it a regular stop for special days. The service is excellent and the atmosphere conducive to great conversation. The food is what really brings us in. Our regular starter is the artisan cheese plate with fruits and such with ingredients that vary by season. Our entrees have been excellently prepared and delicious, and the cocktails and wine are some of the best in Spokane. Definitely recommended for the foodie in you.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing!FoodieDined on 8/31/2014We were visiting town from Seattle, where we tend to be self-confessed "food snobs." The meal we had at Mizuna rivaled anything we've had recently back home and we will definitely be back for more the next time were in town!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DeanoDined on 8/31/2014Love this restaurant!!! Live in south Florida but usually visit Spokane every year. We ate there twice on our most recent trip. Love that they offer both vegan/vegetarian menu and a menu with meat entrees. We usually pick the vegetarian options but have tried items from both. Delicious drinks - LOVE the Sazarac cocktail - so many delicious and affordable wines by the glass and fantastic food!! Has been around for many years and has not lost its delicious edge!! Service - can at times be slow - but the genuine care and warmth that each server offers is SOO worth any wait. Hope it stays in Spokane for many years to come - eating there is a highlight of our yearly trip!!!Special Features:
- Satisfying in every wayRegallaDined on 8/30/2014We shared a special dinner with my parents, and could not ask for a better dining experience. Food was perfectly prepared, and service was non-intrusive and lovely. We talked about our experience for days.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great AgainKootenayFoodieDined on 8/16/2014This is our third time here. The menu always has such interesting Choices with great flavors. It's always hard to choose! Portions are large, great value, but the main thing is the way the food taste! Everyone at our table really enjoyed their meal. An absolute must is the trout bruschetta! Looking forward to going back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Local ingredients w Asian flairazsharaDined on 8/16/2014Mizuna is a low key restaurant perfect for a special occasion or just to enjoy the high quality local food prepared with a subtle Asian influence. They offer two menus - one for vegetarian/vegan diners and another for carnivores. We chose dishes from the carnivore menu. We shared the babyback boar ribs on gorgonzola thyme latkes w blueberry chipotle BBQ sauce - so tender and flavorful we didn't need knives. I had the seared duck served w heirloom carrots, wild rice in a citrus vinaigrette all drizzled w lavender honey. The duck fat was perfectly rendered and the drizzle of honey lent that tiny bit of sweetness to counterbalance the richness of the dish. Dessert was flourless chocolate cake w candied ginger and a blood orange reduction.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An outstanding experience!CRakDined on 8/15/2014A local friend had recommended this as their favorite place, so we were expecting a nice experience. But it was more. Our server was knowledgeable, helpful, and just the right amount of attentive. Recommendations were spot on. Food was amazing - I loved the incredibly fresh veggies done just right and the complex flavors of the curry. The flourless chocolate torte with ginger was an amazing finish to a fine evening. This restaurant makes me wish I lived in Spokane!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vegan/Vegetarian Friendly!VeganEater74Dined on 8/14/2014We ordered a half vegan roasted beet and lentil salad and the field roast/shiitake mushroom lettuce wraps. The salad was rather plain without the chevre. The lettuce wraps were outstanding and a highlight of the meal. I ordered the cauliflower and eggplant samosas, and my wife had the Chinese five spice planet tofu. My dish was excellent and I'd recommend it to anyone. The tofu was overpowered by fennel but tasted great with the polenta and apple chutney that it was served with. The staff was attentive and pleasant, great atmosphere, though the view of Macy's wasn't very inspiring but unavoidable. Due to quality of ingredients and homemade preparation, the plates are a bit pricey for budget conscious customers.Special Features:
- Great food; variable servicejackvjrDined on 8/12/2014The food is consistently among the best in town. The Portuguese Clams first plate I had was easily enough for a main course for one or to share with two. The thickened broth was the best I've ever had. My other loved the trout with risotto.Special Features:
- Excellent Food!AubreyeatsDined on 8/12/2014I went to Mizuna with two others on a Tuesday evening. Really glad I made reservations though because it was packed when we showed up! Service was a little slow because of the full house , I think there was a show at the INB that evening. We ordered the gnocchi, stuffed portobello mushrooms, and duck entrees. It was all delicious! Love the marble tables. No wine for us that night but there was a varied list available. Great atmosphere.Special Features:
- Fabulous first anniversary dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/5/2014We were lucky enough to have an evening away from our 2 year old for our anniversary, but we did bring our 8 month old with us and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. He behaved himself very well and allowed us to enjoy an amazing meal! I knocked off two foods from my foodie bucket list and enjoyed every bite! I just wish we had left room for desert :)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous food againfoodieVIPDined on 7/30/2014Once again an excellent dining experience at Mizuna. Food is innovative and beautifully presented, not too mention super delicious. Our party od 4 all had faultless meals. The wait staff is professional and friendly.Special Features:
- aims high, but delivers lowChitownFoodieVIPDined on 7/27/2014While the ambience and service was good, the food just didn't deliver. I had great expectations based on the menu descriptions for my meal. I selected a Quinoa salad appetizer and then trout with risotto. While the Quinoa was flavorful, the texture was off. It was very wet and not at all fluffy. The trout tasted like it had been covered with sugar and the risotto was a mushy mess. The portion sizes also seemed extremely large. I couldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone.
- We loved Mizuna!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/26/2014We had a party of eight on Saturday evening 7/26 - it was a special occasion and we loved our meal, the setting, our server. Everything was wonderful. Thank you!Special Features:
- Really great dining experiencetravellingdiner1104Dined on 7/21/2014We stopped in Spokane on our vacation and tried the highly rated Mizuna. What a great experience . I had the trout and it was fantastic. Service was great. If we lived in Spokane it would be a place we would go to on special occasions often.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JenMaeDined on 7/13/2014Drove through Spokane on our way to and from a Montana wedding....and we had dinner here both nights! After a total of 4 dishes and 2 desserts, wish we lived close enough for another meal. Salmon, pork chops, clams... all superb. But the sesame crusted ahi salad was a repeat dish. Delicious!! In addition to the great food, our service was efficient and relaxed thanks to Jordan. She remembered every detail of our first visit (including which family member was getting married). A wonderful experience all-around.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- All Around WonderfulFoodieJJDined on 7/4/2014My whole family greatly enjoyed our experience here. The ambience was relaxing and fun, the service was excellent and the food was lovely. If I lived in the area Mizuna would be a favorite place to go regularly.Special Features:
- LovechocolateVIPDined on 6/21/2014Delicious!!!! Must try the flatbread with smoked trout!!! And it's a nice size portion. The shirt rib(special if the day)was great too! Chicken dish was tasty! Love the high tables, so comfortable! Waiters great! Go thee! No... Run!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice placeOlymomVIPDined on 6/13/2014We had a very pleasant experience here. The servers were very engaging and personable. It was relatively quiet early for a Friday, but was full by 7:30 or so. Our table had a halibut special, and seafood pappardelle, and the chicken. It was all good, but we were hoping for excellent. The highly touted carrot cake pleased one who doesn't normally like carrot cake, but didn't thrill those who do. It's still a good spot for downtown and we will likely return on another trip.Special Features:
- kennyjayDined on 6/12/2014Great service, excellent wine list waitress was very knowledgeable about the wine list. Overall great time. Would go back again.Special Features:
- An Excellent Choice in SpokaneTravelingFoodieDined on 6/11/2014This place has its culinary act together! Creative Martinis, very nice wine list and hand-crafted deliciousness in every course.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceeded expectationswanderingoneDined on 6/7/2014We had vegetarians and meat eaters in our group. Everyone agreed the food was spectacular. The service left no complaints, pleasant, prompt and knowledgeable.Special Features:
- Perfect ambiance all year around!dineinthe509VIPDined on 6/7/2014I really love Mizuna! It is cozy in the winter with the exposed brick interior and seasonal menu. There is really nothing like it on a nice summer evening when you can sit outside under the bistro lights with a glass of wine. I cannot go there without ordering the Ahi Salad (I have had it 3 times in the last 2 weeks!!) because it is so fresh, light, perfectly seasoned, and a generous portion of fish. The sweet potato quesadilla is tasty too! I definitely can never pass up the vegan carrot cake - always most, a nice spice aspect and never disappoints. I know people can be weary of a vegan dessert, but trust me, you will not regret it! The service is always a little scattered, but everyone is sweet and knowledgeable. Be patient.Special Features:
- PerfectPoquitaDined on 6/3/2014We dined there with some out-of-town guests who were also thoroughly impressed with the evening. It was a business dinner and the waitress was very mindful of that, yet at the same time she was attentive and courteous. the food was just simply wonderfulI would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 75 reviews are from the Mizuna Restaurant and Wine Bar reviews archive.
- very good experienceDaveDined on 5/24/2014Service, food, atmosphere were all very good. This was our first experience & we will return. Next time I will definitely try the vegan menu. Dinner was a great finish for a special day.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- amazing placeKileyDined on 5/23/2014The food here was divine. My husband is a meataholic and even he loved the vegetarian dishes. This place puts Cafe Flora in Seattle to shame. The meat dishes especially the smoke trout were also very good. Service was excellent and the restaurant is huge but feels cozy and romantic. The only thing I didn't care for was dessert it was too sweet for my tastes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GoodOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 5/18/2014The flavour was good. The price was good considering the quality and portion. The service was a little slow but server was wonderful.Special Features:
- Culinary DelightFoodEDined on 5/18/2014My daughter wanted a quiet, intimate dinner with immediate family and a close friend for her college graduation celebration. I chose this restaurant based on reviews on line, months ahead of time, from another state. It was perfect that I could make reservations months ahead of time and have confirmation of these reservations. We celebrated with wonderful champagne and incredible appetizers. The trout brochette was agreed by all to be the most incredible. I chose a vegetarian option of grilled vegetables which was fantastic. And my other family members who love meat were equally pleased with their meals. We all chose different options and everyone was impressed. It was a lovely meal and evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another Great MealChicagofoodfanVIPDined on 5/17/2014We were in Spokane for just 3 nights and after sampling food here our first night, we came back for more our final night in Spokane. Table was great near the window and our server Jocelyn took very good care of us. Highly recommended if you're in Spokane. Great wine, food and service.Special Features:
- Expected very good.. so it was!KDinSpokaneDined on 5/17/2014Everything on the menu is very tempting, so the choices are difficult. Dining partner ordered the duck breast which was cooked perfectly. My order was the special of the evening, Marlin, also cooked just to the right degree. I will mention that the accompaniments were a little over-done. It was a very busy night in town, so service was a little slow, but that was just fine since we had time to enjoy the meal and didn't feel rushed to finish as things slowed down. The server was knowledgeable about the offerings and the wine list. The atmosphere is very contemporary and casual while it is fine dining. Slightly pricey, but worth it. There are not many comparable menus in town. The cheese plate starter: great!Special Features:
- Spokane Gem!ChicagofoodfanVIPDined on 5/15/2014My wife came to town for a graduation. We are from Chicago. Found Mizuna on Open Table, great reviews and gave it a try for late night wine and a couple plates. Fantastic! We're seated outside with a great Oregon Pinot Noir, some olive tapenade, a beet salad and some house made bread. Couldn't have been lovelier. Great service by Jordan. Next time in Spokane, will be there again.Special Features:
- Flavorful FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 5/14/2014Food was well prepared and very tasty. It seems to be an Indian style cuisine, as far as the use of spices is concerned.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 5/11/2014Great food, service and atmosphere. Thoroughly enjoyed our evening there.Special Features:
- PerfectOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 5/11/2014We had a large group at dinner. We celebrated my sister-in-law's wedding anniversary, Graduation Day, and Mothers' Day at Mizuna. Everyone was happy and satisfied. Great food, great service. Thanks!Special Features:
- Good Splurgemap2Dined on 5/11/2014My wife and I enjoyed our evening at Mizuna. The waiter was professional and appropriate, however he didn't know the wine list very well because when I ordered a glass of Shiraz, he had to look at my menu to see it. The ambiance was what we expected given the prices, but the bread was pretty average - probably a baguette from costco. Of course, we're suckers for bread, so we ate it all anyways. Looking back, I might've expected something more memorable or homemade. The meal was very good, but I have to say, I was expecting a bit more creativity or artistry on the plate based on prices and previous reviews. Overall, Mizuna was a nice night out, but I think I'd look around for other options before going again.Special Features:
- Graduation partyClovisDined on 5/10/2014There were 10 of us and we all had great meals!!! It was a busy night because of gonzaga graduation and some prom dates. Party next to us was large and loud but to be expected!!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great staffOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/9/2014My date decided to change her order at the last second and they did it no problem And didn't charge us at all for her first order. True professional staff and elegant restaurant . Great place. And food blew us away so good!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Old favorite disappointssydneyscaleDined on 5/3/2014Very disappointing experience. Were seated in " New" section. Bland, no art, very noisy. our server was rude and impatient. Our food took forever and when my husband inquired about it our server snapped that the kitchen was overwhelmed by a party of 18. We had reservations so not just walk ins they were trying to accommodate. I had the special manicotti which was very bland worth a thin sauce. our friend had the special lamb chops which came out cold. Overall a very expensive and disappointing experience.

Reising says the bikes are for people who either have a job and need transportation or for those who are job searching. Reising says the program helps achieve the main goals of UCS.
"Getting employment and finding permanent housing, and you've got to have employment in order to get permanent housing, because it requires an income. In order to get employment you've got to have transportation. If a person has a bicycle, they have a much better chance of getting where they need to go and being there when they get there, and the exercise is good," Reising said.
If you have a bicycle you'd like to donate to the program, UCS says you can drop it by their office downtown at 324 NW Sixth Street between 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Their number is 812-422-0297.

SURF CITY, NC (WECT) - An overnight fire destroyed half of a hotel in Surf City, one home, damaged another, and sent at least one person to the hospital.
According to Surf City Fire Chief Mike Halstead, crews arrived at a fire at Tiffany's motel in Surf City at 3:15 a.m. At least 10 different fire crews are on the scene to help. The fire started in the second half of Tiffany's Motel burning 11 rooms and the main office.
Two men were staying in the room that caught on fire, but only of them was inside the room when the fire sparked. The other man was able to help his friend escape, but the man who was in the room when the fire started was taken to the hospital with burn injuries to his arms and hands. The man has since been released.
When the fire was contained, SBI dogs were used to sniff out fire accelerant. A full investigation will begin when hot spots are cooled and all electricity is turned off to ensure safety for the fire officials.
The fire chief said it could take days before the cause of the fire is determined.
In addition to the motel, the fire created a domino effect causing the house next door to burn and is a total loss and the house next to that was 25% destroyed.
According to the Tiffany's Motel Facebook page, part of the motel is still open for business. The post reads:
"Sorry to report that the old side of the motel burned down last night. For those of you that love Tiffany's - don't worry, the remainder of the motel is still open for business. We will be setting up a new office today across the street on the 1st level near the elevator."
Officials say the motel is one of about half a dozen in Surf City, and it has been around for a while. Residents say it's a sort of historical landmark, and they were sad to hear part of it had burned.
