Cops say a Florida man went to a lot of trouble -- and got into an awful lot of trouble -- all on an account of a Big Mac attack. The Pinellas County Sheriff's office told the Post and Courier that Joseph Pineda flashed a gun and a badge at a drive-thru worker, and said he wanted free food because he forgot his wallet on a stakeout.
The employee instead called some real cops, who arrested the 33-year-old suspect in the fast food joint's parking lot after a brief stand-off. He was charged with impersonating a cop and illegal brandishing of a firearm.

SANDPOINT, Idaho -- A northern Idaho firefighter has filed a $1 million claim against the Sagle Fire District contending the district failed to stop harassment from a supervisor following the end of a romantic relationship.
The Bonner County Daily Bee reports that Katie Loper filed the claim Wednesday, citing negligence, wrongful termination, defamation and lost wages.
The claim is a precursor to a lawsuit against a government entity.
Loper contends the harassment began after she ended a relationship with a supervisor, and that her complaints to higher-ups failed to lead to a solution.
The claim says a doctor advised Loper not to return to work until a plan for a safe work environment was put in place.
Loper contents that plan amounted to the supervisor being on his best behavior around her.

Medina Journal-Register
Medina Journal-Register — ALBION — The Orleans County Legislature heard both words of encouragement and charges to show some backbone on the state's municipal tax cap legislation at a public hearing Wednesday. But despite calls to either get under the state-imposed tax levy increase limit or not take the law's big loophole, legislators said they are faced with no good choice when it comes to the budget.
The legislature could take up a local law to override the tax cap's provisions at their Oct. 24 meeting. Legislature Chairman David Callard said such a law is required for any municipality to go above the cap without facing penalties.
Callard said the local law was not an indication that the county will raise the property tax levy above the state-calculated level this year. A local law was also passed last year while the county ended up below the limited increase.
"(Holding the hearing) doesn't say we are overriding, but to override, by law, we must have the local law," Callard said. "The rules are still changing, we don't know (the state's intentions)."
A group of residents, largely members of the local tea party organization, said the move was done to protect legislators from making cuts.
"It was put in place by Gov. Cuomo to protect taxpayers, but everyone is on the bandwagon to override," said Lofthouse, who exhorted legislators "to grow some cojones" during the hearing. "If they're going to keep overriding, what's the sense of having it?"
Legislator Lynne Johnson said it was simply "a precautionary measure" for a budget without much room to grow under the cap.
"We have a $3 million gap with only $327,000 to stay below the cap," Johnson said. "Our retirement and health insurance costs have gone up."
If the county did go over the tax cap, the penalty would be that the overflow would be put in a reserve that the county wouldn't control. Callard said the increased costs aren't county controlled either.
"The budget is always challenging, we're squeezed by the cap," Callard said. "We were able to get under the cap last year, but the state reduced their support for programs."
One economic area that is doing well, Treasurer Sue Heard told legislators, is sales tax recipients. But it's not all good news.
"We're in nice shape," Heard said. "But remember, the retirement bills comes due in December."
So does the budget.

To put it simply, Lumineon is extremely outclassed. Poor stats bar Speed (Lumineon is the third fastest Swift Swimmer, only being slower than Floatzel and Luvdisc) and a rather average movepool for a generic Swift Swim abuser ultimately force Lumineon into disuse. However, don't be so quick to discount this charming little fish. Lumineon's greatest offensive advantage over other Rain Dance abusers is her access to U-turn, which allows her to scout for troublesome walls instead of merely wasting a turn fruitlessly attacking them. However, ideally, Rain Dance teams should be muscling their way through virtually every wall in UU in the first place, making Lumineon's greatest offensive advantage over other Swift Swimmers moot. Because of this, Lumineon is more suited to be a Rain Dance supporter. Her ability to use Rain Dance, U-turn, and Safeguard all at once, while also being a decent abuser of Rain Dance, gives her a rather distinct niche. While Safeguard allows Lumineon to keep sweepers such as Kabutops free of status, even as a Rain Dance supporter, Lumineon struggles to grasp hold of a team spot since there are many other, better Rain Dance users who can also rid the team of status, such as Lanturn. Nonetheless, Lumineon is a cute fish whose minuscule niche might just mesh perfectly with your team.
While Lumineon is outclassed by basically every other Swift Swim abuser in rain (hey, at least she's better than Luvdisc!), and almost every other Water-type outside of rain, Lumineon's access to Rain Dance, Safeguard, and U-turn gives her a unique niche in the lead position as a Rain Dance supporter. With Lumineon's great Speed and decent bulk, she has few issues getting both Safeguard and Rain Dance up against most leads before U-turning to an appropriate Rain Dance abuser. Leads such as Uxie who attempt to spread paralysis can find their attempts futile due to Safeguard, and will even prove to be setup bait for some Rain Dance abusers. Additionally, fast Taunt leads such as Ambipom and Alakazam fail to do much to her as she can simply U-turn to a strong Pokemon to threaten them, and she can still set up Rain Dance later in the match. To top it all off, once Rain Dance has been used, Lumineon is actually surprisingly dangerous, as rain-boosted Surfs can still deal a large amount of damage to frail sweepers despite Lumineon's pitiful offensive prowess.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Lumineon's movepool does have a few gimmicky options which can be used to justify her use, but they are typically extremely situational and another Pokemon probably does the job better. Lumineon has a large enough movepool to form both a generic physical and special Swift Swim abuser set, with Waterfall, Return, Bounce, U-turn, and Payback for the former, and Surf, Ice Beam, Hidden Power, Silver Wind, Psybeam, Air Cutter, and Ominous Wind for the latter. However, Lumineon lacks the stats to use either of these sets, and many of the attacks listed are situational at best. Lumineon has Tailwind as an alternative support option, but its effect doesn't last long enough for it to be effective. Agility is another way for Lumineon to boost her Speed, but Lumineon once again lacks the stats to use it effectively. Lumineon can use Toxic to cripple a bulky wall, but Lumineon doesn't really lure out walls that much since she's so weak that the opponent doesn't even need something that bulky to weather Lumineon's attacks. Lumineon can also use Tickle with U-turn to force switches and swing momentum in your team's favor, but since it's Lumineon, it's unlikely that the opponent will actually switch.
Checks and Counters
Dealing with Lumineon herself isn't really the main issue, as that's not a particularly arduous task at all. Fast Taunt leads can prevent her from setting up Rain Dance or Safeguard early on, and from there, Lumineon may have some trouble finding another opening to switch in again, as her bulk is only decent. The main problem you must prepare for when facing Lumineon is the threat of Rain Dance, which can easily rip through unprepared teams. Grass- and Water-types such as Venusaur, Leafeon, Milotic, and Slowbro are great against Rain Dance teams, resisting their Water-type moves and being able to hit back with a Grass- or Electric-type attack (Hidden Power Grass or Electric for the latter two). Registeel is also a decent option, with enough bulk to weather a hit and Explode to take out one lethal sweeper. It should be noted, however, that since Lumineon can easily prevent status with Safeguard, it's not ideal to attempt to use paralysis as your main counter to Rain Dance teams. Generally, the main idea against them is to use clever switching to prevent some of your more crucial walls from fainting, before striking back when the eight turns of Rain Dance end. Preventing Rain Dance from being set up in the first place is also ideal, since without Rain Dance, most Swift Swimmers are fairly easy to pick off and are not as threatening.

LONG-awaited maps showing the extent of old coalmines under the Newcastle business district have been made available by the Mine Subsidence Board.
While not the detailed three-dimensional images that some had hoped for, the online maps define the old workings into six colour-coded categories.
These depend on the amount of grouting – or partial filling with cement and fly-ash – needed to strengthen the workings before building over them.
Green areas, the largest of them at Wickham, have no workings underneath them and are given the all-clear by the subsidence board.
The Civic ''wedge'' site of the proposed new seven-storey state court building is on the border of two mid-range categories and is at least partly on top of the old and shallow Yard seam, just 30metres or so below the surface.
Subsidence board chief executive Greg Cole-Clark said the maps, known formally as a mine subsidence category plan, had been developed by the board as part of a working group involving state government, local council and private sector bodies.
Similar maps would also be prepared for ''growth areas'' at Charlestown and Glendale.
The board has noted previously that ''practically all remaining vacant land in the Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Maitland districts [is] undermined by old abandoned mine workings''.
Mr Cole-Clark said substantial grouting had been needed for sections of the $1.7billion Hunter Expressway.
Property Council of Australia regional director Andrew Fletcher said the maps would help developers deal with the uncertainty of mine subsidence.
''This information will help identify which sites carry the greatest commercial risk, but the challenge now is to develop a strategy which can reduce the risk, facilitate investment and fast-track urban renewal in the CBD,'' Mr Fletcher said.
Part of the Honeysuckle ''red'' zone at Cottage Creek is marked as having an ''in principle grouting proposal'' but Mr Cole-Clark said this idea was still at its early stages.
As things stand, individual land-owners are responsible for the costs of grouting their sites.
To gain sufficient strength, the grout is often required to run under neighbouring properties to the one being developed.
Mr Cole-Clark said the working group was looking at ways of equitably sharing the cost of grouting.

Depending on your chemistry and how strong the fragrance wears/reacts, this cologne is for any man that doesn't hit all the way to the left or right (of any stereotype/situation/personality). Perfect blend of elegance and casual, approachable and strong. This has been my personal "signature scent" since the day it hit the market. Not because I am pretentious, but because it is very distinguishing without being overbearing. Only one other cologne is every used, on a rare occasion.
Love the intensity of this fragrance. Strong on the woody/peppery scent that linger with an amber after note... This will go down as my new favourite!
My favorite cologne ever produced, bar none. I love the smokey pinon notes on top of other woods and spices. I cannot say enough good words about Gucci Pour Homme. I'm sad it is discontinued.
I'm a gay man who has a good amount of colognes for men...I have my favorite two or three, but the first time I smelled this, I headed straight for Gucci (I live in Manhattan). They didn't have colognes, so I went to the most upper end store in the city and they had it, asked me if I wanted to try it, and I said no, just ring it up. It's the only time I've ever had a straight man ask me what fragrance I was wearing. It's now my number 1 or 2 favorite along with one of Chanel's men's colognes, which reminds me I have to get more Gucci, I'm almost out.
Love this cologne smells great and the ladies seem to like it!!!!
Perfect fragrance for hitting the town, smells like a bushfire, pure elegance and it lasts all night, I am consistently asked what I'm wearing-nice! For day time use YSL's Pour homme, perfect match. :)
the best fragrance ever made! I like it so much. My #1

we were two adults, one young adult and a child. We had an executive apartment of 4. Everything was very nice...we had the perfect room with all that we needed. Very good service and really nice staff. They helped us with everything we needed to know and printed out maps and directions for us. Even if it was only for the neighbourhood. We never had to walk too far. Their are two stations within 100m. One underground and one upperground. Restaurants and shopping in abundance nearby. The beds were very cosy. I must say that we are very picky when it comes to lodgings but this was really ok."
We've been there for a vacation. Do not take the tower, only the new west wing. If you don't eat large breakfast in the morning, there are Costa and Pret arround the hotel, you don't need to pay for breakfast, it 17.4P anyway, too expensive."
We were in The Rembrandt for 5 nights. The location couldn't have been better being a 6 minute walk to a tube station, in a handy neighborhood with shops and restaurants, and across the street from the Victoria & Albert Museum. There was even a bus stop right in front. The hotel was full service with a generous breakfast buffet, a large bar area, restaurant (which we didn't try), and a bar cafe that was open late, a treasure when we arrived mid-evening after the day flight to London from New York. Staff was always responsive, the room was comfortable and spotless (it looked recently renovated in a nice modern style), the WiFi was reliable, there was a mini bar and safe, the bed was very comfortable, great lighting in the bathroom with a magnifying mirror, and the room was very, very quiet. It was our first stay at this hotel and we would both recommend it without reservation and will stay there again. An excellent value, too."
10-out of-10! Great hotel...the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is decor is modern while still maintaining the beautiful building...and the location - just perfect!!!! Highly recommend this hotel :)"
Very nice hotel. Great selection for breakfast fruit, cereals, fry up juices etc. Brilliant location close to the Castle and lots of great restaurants and pubs within walking distance. Only issue while there was the noise. Our room was to the front of the hotel and could hear traffic and people on the street as if we were out on the street with them. Overall though a lovely hotel, unfortunately we didnt have time to use the spa facilities."
Having stayed here several times before I knew to expect a comfortable, clean well run hotel. The only reason for not giving a 5 star rating is because when I arrived the room was quite cold and took a long time to warm up (check-in 24th Dec.)"
I stayed here with my boyfriend for 2 nights, it's the perfect location, just right around the corner fro Picadilly Gardens so everything is on the doorstep. The hotel itself is really nice and well kept, our room was quite small but we just went for a standard double but it was clean and comfortable and although we were on one of the busiest streets in Manchester, we could hardly hear a thing outside which was really good. Staff were very friendly and helpful and make a point of remembering you especially the bar staff. Overall lovely hotel, would definitely stay here again without doubt just next time I would opt for a better/bigger room"
We had a fantastic stay at the Midland Hotel. Helpful friendly staff were on hand to give advice regarding all the local amenities, restaurants, bars,clubs etc. Located in manchester City Centre the hotel is perfect for sightseeing and is only a few min walk to Oxford Rd & piccadilly stations. The hotel has a great restaurant and bar & the quality of food is jst amazing. service is first class"
From the moment we arrived and Scott greeted us,everyone in the complex were so nice.. Superb facilities with excellent swimming pool. Wireless Internet worked perfectly. Food in restaurant was beautiful with perfect breakfast. Could not fault any part of our short stay.. I highly recommend this hotel for business or pleasure. . Hopefully will get to use the golf course next time."
We arrived Friday the 21st March to a very warm welcome from the receptionist our room was fantastic very clean and tidy. Not a single complaint about the room. Staff are very nice and looke after us well. The location was perfect walking distance to all the shops ,bars restaurants and nightclubs. The bars around the hotel are ridiculously expensive but the good priced nightlife is only a stones throw away. Would definitely recommend this place and if we are ever back in Glasgow again we will defo be staying here."
This hotel was very reasonable and the service of the staff was brilliant. Very friendly and they helped me with all of my requests. The hotel was very clean and only a ten minute walk to the city centre. If you're looking for affordable accommodation in Glasgow then this is perfect."

In a seemingly scandalous new fly-on-the-wall clip just posted by TMZ, a pink-wigged and dirty-mouthed Nicki is shown going off on her former "Up Out Of My Face" duet partner, shouting, "If you've got a f***ing problem, handle it!" She also yells, "I told them, I'm not putting up with her f***ing highness over here. I'm not gonna sit here every f***ing minute to have you come down and harass me every minute every day."
Meanwhile, Mariah's manager and fellow judge, Randy Jackson, sitting by his star client's side, orders Nicki to "settle down." Producer Nigel Lythgoe, who has repeatedly claimed that Mariah and Nicki are getting along just swimmingly, also steps in to intervene. New neutral-as-Switzerland judge Keith Urban, sitting in the undesirable hot seat between Nicki and Mariah, remains calm and carries on, just sipping his Coke and probably mentally going straight to his happy place. And Mariah looks exasperated; moans,"Why, why, why?"; and appears to point Nicki in the direction of the exit door. (Mariah tweeted on Tuesday late afternoon, "whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"--but that post has since been deleted.)
TMZ additionally reports that Nicki also threatened to "knock out" Mariah, although that exchange apparently wasn't caught on tape.
While the damning video makes it seem like this battle royale between these two divas was Nicki-instigated, MouthToEars.com claims that it was Mariah who started it all. "Nicki Minaj walked off of set because Mariah Carey kept making jabs at her. Nicki's manager and team convinced her to come back to the show. Mariah kept at it and called Nicki a b***h and then proceeded to cuss her out. Producers had to stop filming and call it a night," the site reports.
Representatives for Fox had no comment at this time.
In this supposed any-publicity-is-good-publicity age, gossippy stories like this will certainly keep "Idol" in the news, at a time of year when most reality fans are focused on NBC's increasingly popular "The Voice" or Simon Cowell's new-and-improved "X Factor." But I am concerned about how this sort of hype will ultimately damage the brand of what for years has basically been a very family-friendly, feel-good program with a largely conservative fanbase. While all of these talent shows, including "Idol" in its Simon Cowell/Paula Abdul heyday, have featured judging-table fireworks that have made for some undeniably good TV, it usually all remained playful and lighthearted--a friendly-rivalry sort of thing. In those instances when inter-judge relations did seem to genuinely sour onscreen (Christina Aguilera and Adam Levine's Tony Lucca-centric feuding on "The Voice" Season 2, the obvious uncomfortable friction between Simon and the soon-to-be-fired Nicole Scherzinger on "The X Factor" Season 1), it was a major turnoff to viewers...not to mention a major distraction from the hapless contestants caught in the crossfire.

"American Idol" fans already know that it's unlikely that Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey will be back on the show next season. The drama between the dueling divas has overshadowed the once-top rated TV talent show, with Nicki taking the disrespect to a whole new level when she pulled out a Q-tip to clean out Mariah's ears last week.
That said, there is no doubt that next season's judges' table will look very different for Season 13. Ratings for the 12th season of the show are way down, and "American Idol" executive producer Nigel Lythgoe has gone on record saying the judges' lack of chemistry is to blame for this season's declining ratings.
According to MTV, reports are surfacing that Nigel is hoping to assemble a "dream team" of judges that includes pop superstars Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Pink and Sean "Diddy" Combs.
A source for Radar Online reports that the current lineup of judges -- Nicki, Mariah, Keith Urban and Randy Jackson -- may be obliterated, and that host Ryan Seacrest is the only current cast member who has job security.
According to the Radar source: "There's more drama going on behind the scenes of the show than on the stage, and that's why there's a major overhaul in the works… That's why they want to go big next season, and you can't get any bigger than Justin Bieber. The executives are calling it their dream team because who wouldn't tune in to see Justin and Selena, Pink and Diddy? Pink has been approached in the past and turned it down as well as Diddy, who wanted too much money. It will cost a fortune to get them, but the show has gotten so stale that Fox is desperate for a revamp - they're willing to pay to put 'Idol' back on top."
Rumors recently surfaced that the "Idol" powers-that-be frantically tried to pull off a mid-season replacement of their $18 million catch, Mariah Carey, with former judge Jennifer Lopez, but it never came to fruition. But J-Lo will be back for the show's finale next week to perform her new single, "Live It Up." According to Deadline, Fox is still pursuing J-Lo for next season's judges' panel as well.
While Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are presumably at the height of their careers right now -- Gomez, especially, has been juggling a mix of music and acting projects -- it seems unlikely that they'd actually bite at the "Idol" bait. Still, other TV talent shows have reeled in some big fish: Pop star Demi Lovato was seduced by Simon Cowell's show, "The X Factor," while Bieber's mentor, Usher, is currently a judge on "The Voice."
The "American Idol" Season 12 finale airs on May 16 on Fox.

text: Explore Kerala Thiruvananthapuram Kovalam and around Varkala Kollam (Quilon) Alappuzha (Alleppey) Kottayam and around Periyar and around Munnar Kochi (Cochin) and around Thrissur and around Kozhikode (Calicut) Wayanad The far north Share One of the most memorable experiences for travellers in India is the opportunity to take a boat journey on the backwaters of Kerala. The area known as Kuttanad stretches for 75km from Kollam in the south to Kochi in the north, sandwiched between the sea and the hills. This bewildering labyrinth of shimmering waterways, composed of lakes, canals, rivers and rivulets, is lined with dense tropical greenery and preserves rural Keralan lifestyles that are completely hidden from the road. The region's bucolic way of life has long fascinated visitors. And the ever entrepreneurial Keralans were quick to spot its potential as a visitor destination – particularly after it was discovered that foreigners and wealthy tourists from India's cities were prepared to pay vast sums in local terms to explore the area aboard converted rice barges, or kettu vallam. Since its inception two decades ago, the houseboat tour industry has grown exponentially in both size and sophistication, and has brought with it major environmental drawbacks as well as increased prosperity. You can, however, explore this extraordinary region in lower-impact ways, too. Tourist cruises The most popular excursion in the Kuttanad region is the full-day journey between Kollam and Alappuzha. All sorts of private hustlers offer their services, but the principal boats are run on alternate days by the ATDC and the DTPC. The double-decker boats leave from both Kollam and Alappuzha daily, departing at 10.30am (10am check-in); tickets (Rs300) can be bought in advance or on the day at the ATDC/DTPC counters, other agents and some hotels. Both companies make three stops during the eight-hour journey, including one for lunch, and another at the Mata Amritanandamayi Math at Amritapuri – ashram of Kerala's famous "hugging saint", Amma – around three hours north of Kollam. Although this is by far the main backwater route, many tourists find it too long, with crowded decks and intense sun. There's also something faintly embarrassing about being cooped up with a crowd of fellow tourists, madly photographing any signs of life on the water or canal banks, while gangs of kids scamper alongside the boat screaming "one pen, one pen". One alternative is to charter a four- or six-seater motorboat, which you can do through DTPC and ATDC for around Rs300/hr. Slower, more cumbersome double-decker country boats are also available for hire from Rs250 per hour. Village tours and canoes Quite apart from their significant environmental impact, most houseboats are too wide to squeeze into the narrower inlets connecting small villages. To reach these more idyllic, remote areas, therefore, you'll need to charter a punted canoe. The slower pace means less distance gets covered in an hour, but the experience of being so close to the water, and those who live on it, tends to be correspondingly more rewarding. You'll also find more formal "village tours" advertised across the Kuttanad area, tying together trips to watch coir makers, rice farmers and boat builders in action with the opportunity to dine in a traditional Keralan village setting. Kettu vallam (houseboats) Whoever dreamed up the idea of showing tourists around the backwaters in old rice barges, or kettu vallam, could never have imagined that, two decades on, six hundred or more of them would be chugging around Kuttanad waterways. These houseboats, made of dark, oiled jackwood with canopies of plaited palm thatch and coir, are big business, and almost every mid- and upmarket hotel, guesthouse and "heritage homestay" seems to have one. Nearly five hundred work out of Alappuzha alone, the flashiest fitted with a/c rooms, wide-screen plasma TVs on their teak sun decks, imported wine in their fridges and Jacuzzis that bubble away through the night. One grand juggernaut (called the Vaikundan, based near Amma's ashram in Kollam district) holds ten bedrooms and won't slip its lines for less than Rs100,000 ($2200). At the opposite end of the scale are rough-and-ready transport barges with gut-thumping diesel engines, cramped bedrooms and minimal washing facilities. What you end up paying for your cruise will depend on the size and quality of the boat and its fittings; the number and standard of the bedrooms; and, crucially, the time of year. Rates double over Christmas and New Year, and halve off-season during the monsoons. In practice, Rs6000–15,000 is the usual bracket for a trip on a two-bedroom, a/c boat with a proper bathroom, including three meals, in early December or mid-January. The cruise should last a minimum of 22 hours, though don't expect to spend all of that on the move: running times are carefully calculated to spare gas. From sunset onwards you'll be moored at a riverbank, probably on the outskirts of the town where the trip started. You'll save quite a lot of cash, and be doing the fragile ecosystem a big favour, by opting for a more environmentally friendly punted kettu vallam. This was how rice barges were traditionally propelled, and though it means you travel at a more leisurely pace, the experience is silent (great for wildlife-spotting) and altogether more relaxing. Houseboat operators work out of Kollam and Kumbakonam, but most are in Alappuzha, where you'll find the lowest prices – but also the worst congestion on more scenic routes. Spend a day shopping around for a deal (your guesthouse or hotel-owner will be a good first port of call) and always check the boat over beforehand. It's also a good idea to get the deal fixed on paper before setting off, and to withhold a final payment until the end of the cruise in case of arguments. Recommended operators include: Lakes and Lagoons (t0477/223 6181, whttp://www.lakeslagoons.com); River Goddess Houseboats (UK t01726/844 867, India t 9847 846441), whttp://www.rivergoddesshouseboats.com); and the Nest Houseboat (t 0477/2245825 or t9961 466399, whttp://www.johnsonskerala.com). Local ferries Kettu vallam may offer the most comfortable way of cruising the backwaters, but you'll get a much more vivid experience of what life is actually like in the region by jumping on one of the local ferries that serve its towns and villages. Particularly recommended is the trip from Alappuzha to Kottayam (dep 7.30am, 9.35am, 11.30am & 5.15pm; 2hr 30min; Rs10), which winds across open lagoons and narrow canals, through coconut groves and islands. Arrive early to get a good place with uninterrupted views. There are numerous other local routes that you can jump on and off, though working your way through the complexities of the timetables and Malayalam names can be difficult without the help of the tourist office. Good places to aim for from Alappuzha include Neerettupuram, Kidangara, and Chambakulam; all are served by regular daily ferries, but you may have to change boats once or twice along the way, killing time in local cafés and toddy shops (all of which adds to the fun, of course). Whatever service you opt for, take a sun hat and plenty of water. Threats to the ecosystem The African moss that often carpets the surface of the narrower waterways may look attractive, but it is a symptom of the many serious ecological problems currently affecting the region, whose population density ranges from between two and four times that of other coastal areas in southwest India. This has put growing pressure on land, hence a greater reliance on fertilizers, which eventually work their way into the water causing the build-up of moss. Illegal land reclamation, poses the single greatest threat to this fragile ecosystem. In a little over a century, the total area of water in Kuttanad has been reduced by two-thirds, while mangrove swamps and fish stocks have been decimated by pollution and the spread of towns and villages around the edges of the backwater region. Tourism adds to the problem, as the film of oil from motorized ferries and houseboats spreads through the waters, killing yet more fish, which has in turn led to a reduction of over fifty percent in the number of bird species found in the region.

Tony Scott Left Behind Some Fine Projects
I didn't know there was a remake of The Warriors on the slate...Quote:
Aside from Top Gun 2, Tony Scott has left behind some very promising development projects. The ones that were closest to the start line were Narco Sub at Fox and Lucky Strike with Vince Vaughn starring, Emmett/Furla funding and Fox distributing and a remake of The Wild Bunch at Warner Bros. The one I was most intrigued by was his plan to remake the Walter Hill-directed The Warriors, the 1979 drama about the street gang framed for murdering a gang leader, who are hunted by assorted street gangs as they try to make their way back to the safety of their home turf. Under Scott's direction, that would have been something to see.
The Hunger is my favorite of his films, but, to be fair, I haven't seen it in more than 20 years, too.
I love the Hunger, but I have bad taste. It's silly good goth fun!
That was the first time I saw Peter Murphy!
And I do love me some Susan Sarandon lesbo action! :D
I may be in the minority here, but for me there was never a time in her life when Susan Sarandon was anywhere even close to hot enough to be allowed to touch Catherine Deneuve.Quote:
and I do love me some Susan Sarandon lesbo action! :D
In my opinion, Tony Scott was the worst big budget director of all time. I have hated every single one of his movies. Every stinking one that I ever saw was worse than it should have been. Style over substance at every turn, but his style was vapid and pointless without any courage or personality to do anything other than loud, easy choices.
I grew up in San Pedro and was terrified of the Vincent Thomas bridge. I've had countless nightmares about dying falling from that monstrosity. I've heard that the brain cancer story is being disputed now, but either way, I completely support his decision to end his life in a manner of his own choosing regardless of the circumstances. I won't miss his work, at all, but if he felt he had to go, I hope he went in peace and had his affairs in order.
I get your point MB, his movies were eye candy more than brain...but they are not without merit. The aforementioned remake of Man on Fire is really good. And Enemy of the State is one of my JunkFoodMovie top tens. Not an Oscar winner but tremendously entertaining.
And you like Susan Sarandon, right, JD? ;)

Saints Score Early, Pound Trojans for 12-4 Victory
DAHLONEGA, GA – The North Georgia baseball team used a seven-run first inning on Tuesday evening on their way to a 12-4 victory over Anderson University at Bob Stein Stadium in non-conference action.
The Saints improve to 20-11 overall on the year, while the Trojans fall to 15-21 on the season. North Georgia is now 11-5 in home games, and 14-2 in non-conference games on the year.
North Georgia manufactured a run early on the way to the team's biggest inning of the year to open the game. Jordan Erisman led off the game with a single, and later scored on a balk to open the floodgates as the Saints pushed across six more runs in the first inning. Chad Sage and Brad Hall provided the fireworks as both sluggers crushed two-run homers to highlight the seven-run inning.
The Saints continued to get run production with two runs in the fourth inning, followed single runs in three more innings to plate 12 runs on 14 hits.
Sage had a career day at the plate, going 5-for-5 with two runs scored and four runs batted in, as the senior continues to put up big offensive numbers. Hall finished the game 3-for-5 with three runs batted in, while Troy Snitker tallied a pair of hits and scored two runs.
Anderson scored a single run in the third inning off a Thomas Padro RBI single to left field, and added three more in the sixth inning, highlighted by an Erick Sanderson two-run homer down the left field line.
Daniel Warzon (3-0) picked up the victory in relief, tossing 6.0 innings and allowing four runs on eight hits. Jesse Coxwell recorded two innings with all zeros, and Jacob Rickett breezed through the 9th inning in style, recording two strikeouts to send Anderson packing.
North Georgia returns to action over the weekend, welcoming in-state rival and 26th-ranked Columbus State to town for a three-game series. The Saints and Cougars will open the set on Friday evening at 5:00 p.m., followed by a doubleheader on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. at Bob Stein Stadium.

Location (Geofence) Reminders Not Working in iOS 6? Disable Exchange Reminder Sync
After a couple of years as a mostly satisfied Android user, I recently switched back to the iPhone (the reasons might someday be the subject of another story). I was eager to try out location-based reminders, which reminded me of a stripped down (but easier) version of Tasker on Android. I liked the idea that I could use Siri to say, "remind me to take out the trash when I get home," and I'd have a reminder added to my list in the Reminders app. Thanks to geofencing in iOS, that reminder would automatically fire when I pulled into the driveway.Read more

© Alexander Moffat
Ian Hamilton Finlay 1975
- Scottish Art
Alexander Moffat's artistic output consists chiefly of portraits, which are often of his family and friends. As an influential teacher and writer on art, Moffat's sitters have included many prominent Scottish figures, such as John Bellany, Alan Bold and Norman MacCaig. In this portrait of Ian Hamilton Finlay, Moffat has shown the sitter in a natural and relaxed pose, looking as if he is thinking or listening to a conversation. By the late 1960s, Moffat had abandoned his palette of earthy colours to use bright colours, influenced by Matisse. In this work, the soft, bright pastels combine with Moffat's confident sense of linear form to make a striking portrait of Finlay.

Anybody have any suggestions for some nice wireless gaming headsets with mic (hopefully Bluetooth) that are good and might cost something like $50-60 on a deal. Something more like these full Circumaural Ear Pads. I like the Plantronics GameCom X95 Xbox 360 Wireless Headset, but is there any like those to work with on a PC. Sure theres Plantronics Audio 995 which is ok, although a little to Spacey as gaming Headset. Want something the boys can game with and also Bluetooth to phones to listen to music. There's the Turtle Beach XP300 and those are nice, but then so is the price (2 pair sets me back like $280).
I've been looking but it seems like nothing is fitting the bill. Thank's

11 comments:
I hate this because my cable company doesn't carry TVGN. I cannot switch companies because my landlord won't allow a satellite dish. With all the channels available today I feel I was able to find a greater variety of entertainment back in the 1960's - and it was all free!ReplyDelete
we lost soapnet quite a while back.. was very disappointed when this happened so now I go to CBS.com and watch it there it is a day later but still get to keep up with what is happeningReplyDelete
with SoapNet winding down, hopefully TVG will make a deal to carry DAYS as well. Would love to see classic episodes as well as new ones.ReplyDelete
Any word on what SOAPnet is going to fill the 7pm and 10pm hours with?ReplyDelete
Fox, SOAPnet is airing same-day GH at 7 and 9 and DAYS at 8 and 10.ReplyDelete
Thanks, Roger. What inspired programming choices..lol!ReplyDelete
I enjoyed the INFANITY special especially the first several minutes where we saw glimpses of classic clips (Lance & Lorie, Lauren & Paul, etc).ReplyDelete
This is great news!! My station I watch it on is always interupting if for Obama or any other incident they can and play it during middle of the night never knowing what time it will be to catch on DVR....ReplyDelete
My wife wants to thank you so much for your move to TVGN. Now she can no longer watch Y&R because Time Warner cable doesn't offer that channel.ReplyDelete
Well, this sucks... My cable provider doesn't carry this channel. Matter of fact, I'd never heard of this channel until the switch. So thanks a lot!ReplyDelete
Hey any way that you can get this with closed captions..i'm hearing impaired and I rely on it...hope soon you will add that onReplyDelete
