The Good
It was 1838, moments before The Shade came into his own. Before his life was -- at last -- changed, and he, a family man, turned into the man we would know him to be. It's been about a year since the first issue of THE SHADE first hit stores, and it's certainly been a wild ride. Now, at last, we have issue twelve; the culmination of Robinson's work for nearly a year, and the conclusion of the series. At last we will gain a better understanding of who The Shade really is. Who was the man before he turned, and was overcome by sheer darkness?
"For in that moment the blackness overcame me. And I became oblivion."
The language in this issue is truly something else. The internal dialogue does a phenomenal job in setting the tone and mood of this issue. You get a true sense of who this character is and what is important to him. Robinson does this so well that at the very end you might even find yourself mourning The Shade's loss, a little bit. The pacing is just brilliant the way that the creative team creates a gradual progression before going into the story and revealing who he is and where he had come from. The fantastic writing in this issue is paired with the equally stunning art of Gene Ha who seemed to have had a great time illustrating the book. The artist definitely played around a little bit with the structure and the layout of the panels in this issue; it's pretty impressive.
The issue almost reads like prose and does as good of a job creating the setting for the story as the artist does. One thing I really liked about the end of the issue is that while it feels like a conclusion of sorts (it set out what Robinson had initially planned to do), there's definitely still room for more stories. I think that leaving it open ended just a little bit was probably a good move on Robinson's part.
The Bad
Nothing bad here. Definitely one of the best comics this week.
The Verdict
Although you could go into this issue and understand it's events without reading the previous issues, I wouldn't recommend it. Issue #12 of THE SHADE reads as a great conclusion to a long story, but it also reads as a sort of a beginning. This is the start of the character's life as The Shade. Here is the beginning of where we will see him embrace his identity. It's a great issue.
The great thing about this series has been the way that Robinson has successfully managed to embrace and capture The Shade's voice. He really has a voice and a story to tell in this series, and it's especially prevalent in this final issue. This is absolutely a book I will be picking up once it has been collected, and I recommend you do the same. If you like mysticism, black magic and 19th century excitement, you won't be disappointed. I particularly liked the cameo appearance made by one of the most prominent British authors, too.

Clinic reviews
5 Stars - 04-05-2016 - roz
Our dog was spayed at another vet with complications that almost cost her her life. Vets for pets spent an agonising period of several months putting her back together.Not only did they offer superb treatment they excelled in supporting us, her owners, in every way through a very difficult time.Fortunately our dog made it through. We have recommended this practice to all we meet on our walks and wouldn't go anywhere else.
5 Stars - 28-03-2016 - Gemmyjan
I first went there in an emergency. I decided then to change my Vet. Since then we have experienced sadness and joy together, but I have always known my pets care was their first consideration.
5 Stars - 03-03-2016 - Fabulous Service
It's such a relief to find a reassuring, thoughtful and interested practice. If possible, these vet's will find a non surgical way, rather than incur an overnight and distressing stay. My bitch was having difficulty whelping her last puppies. Most other practices would have insisted on keeping her overnight and she would've probably undergone a cesarian section. Thankfully we brought her here, and we all headed home safe and sound without unnecessary intervention. For the first time in many years, I have confidence in a vet. Thank you to them all.
5 Stars - 27-01-2014 - bexs71
We have found this practise to be 100% dedcicated to the animals they see as well as their owners, they are compassionate to proving an excellent service when treating animals, they actually DO care for each and every animal they see & treat. Its not about the money its about your pet making sure they are treated with 100% care and attention they deserve. I totally trust Giles and the team and wouldn't take my pets anywhere else. Thank you Giles & team for being the best vets in Telford.

Far North Dallas Tax Office Gets Surprise Package of Weed in Mail, Inexplicably Turns it in to Police
The life of a tax office mail clerk seems that it'd be dull. Box after cardboard box of IRS forms, IRS instruction manuals and IRS paraphernalia, with only an occasional piece of computer equipment to spice things up.
So, yesterday's special delivery must have come as a surprise to the clerk at a Far North Dallas tax office tucked behind the Studio Movie Grill at Central and Spring Valley Road. It was decently sized cube, 15 inches per side, and addressed to someone named Mike Jones. No Mike Jones worked at the tax office, but the address (13999 Goldmark Drive) and suite number (300) were correct, so the clerk figured it was a box of checks.
It was not. Inside, he found two Tupperware containers wrapped in tissue paper. Unwrapping one of them, the clerk discovered a vacuum-sealed freezer bag packed tight with marijuana. The tax office had not, he was pretty sure, ordered any weed.
The arrival of such a package was strange. Stranger still was the clerk's response. Rather than take the "checks" home and have a super chill weekend, he called Dallas police and handed everything over.
We've tried to contact the tax office to see just what in God's name this individual was thinking, but without success. There are a couple of tax offices in the strip center at 13999 Goldmark. The number for one is disconnected, while the man who answered the phone at the other sounded puzzled when asked if he'd received any weed shipments recently. So, it shall remain a mystery.

Times Cinema to reopen Dec. 28
The Times Cinema will reopen Friday with floodlight hitting the skies, a red carpet purportedly filled with paparazzi and "Django Unchained" on the screen.
The Times, at 5906 W. Vliet St., has been closed since March, when the lender for the building and other properties, including the Rosebud Cinema in Wauwatosa, began foreclosure proceedings. Investor Lee Barczak, who owns the Avalon Theatre property in the Bay View neighborhood, bought the Times and Rosebud at a foreclosure auction in May, and reopened the Rosebud in August »Read Full Article(1)

Margarito vs Pacquiao @ Welter in May?
How does that sound? Huh, huh? Anyone?
After Manny lays Miguel out, there will be no demand for a Margarito vs Cotto rematch. And Manny will be on top of the World. Floyd will surely negotiate himself out of a fight with Manny, so that one's out the window.
The biggest fight out there would be with the returning, former Welterweight kingpin, Antonio Margarito. And on Cinco de Mayo weekend, it would be HUGE. By then, maybe, just maybe, Manny will have established a reputation as a bonafide Welterweight (small but able to compete with the best at 147).
And if Floyd and Shane can work things out, then the winners can fight each other later in the year. Can you imagine that?
Margarito vs Pacquiao
Mayweather vs Mosley

Hmm; sounds not bad; but still don't think Margarito deserves this big honour;
he should fight Cotto right away!

Margarina con queso should not be getting any big fights right away.
Although, I still think he has some unfinished business with Mosley and Cotto but Mantequilla plasterito will have to wait in line.

It doesn't matter what you all feel Margarito deserves. LOL, bottom line is, people will pay to see Margarito fight. Especially now because of the controversy that surrounds him. A Margarito vs Pacquiao fight would do tremendous numbers.
The intrigue and interest for such a fight would be crazy:
The size difference
The plaster ordeal
The only fighters to defeat Cotto
Can Manny Mexecute Margarito?
Cinco de Mayo weekend
Tony would have to come back and win a tune-up fight in impressive fashion though, prior to a big fight.

SAN DIEGO (AP) - His left knee felt great, his game was as sharp as ever. The real treat for Tiger Woods was holding another trophy at the Buick Invitational.
"I missed competing," Woods said Sunday. "Having to hit a golf shot that matters, that gives me a big rush. I really missed that."
He didn't miss a beat during his time off from Dec. 12 surgery and, as usual, he had no problem with Phil Mickelson.
Woods was accurate off the tee and dynamite with his irons, closing with a 4-under 68 on Sunday for a four-shot victory at Torrey Pines.
Mickelson, who a week ago poked fun at Woods by saying he used "inferior" equipment, never challenged in the final group and finished six shots behind.
"He's just a very impressive player," Mickelson said. "It isn't easy to step in and out of competition, and he never gives anything back. I knew I was fighting an uphill battle."
For Woods, the rush was not just walking up the 18th fairway to the cheers of an enormous gallery.
It was the 4-iron from 231 yards on No. 11 that covered the flag and stopped 3 feet away for birdie. It was another 4-iron from 200 yards in ankle-deep rough on No. 15 that Woods carved around a tree to 15 feet for the clincher.
"He looked like he'd been playing for weeks in a row," playing partner Brad Faxon said. "Every part of his game was on. It's hard to imagine someone playing any better."
1. Tiger Woods: 70-66-68-68-272.
2. Carl Pettersson: 69-68-70-69-276.
3. Brad Faxon: 70-64-71-72-277.
4. (tie) Briny Baird: 70-65-72-71-278.
4. Arron Oberholser: 65-70-72-71-278.
4. Phil Mickelson: 69-68-69-72-278.
Though the two-month layoff was the longest of his career, Woods wasted no time answering any questions about his health or his game.
Carl Pettersson of Sweden had a 69 to finish four strokes behind, although he was never a factor. Faxon was the only challenger until he ran into problems off the tee. He shot 72 to finish third at 277.
Mickelson didn't make a birdie until the 13th hole and finished with a 72, sharing fourth place with Briny Baird and Arron Oberholser.
Woods won for the 35th time on the PGA Tour, and it was his 11th tour victory by at least four shots. He also improved his record to 27-2 when he has at least a share of the 54-hole lead, and this was as easy as any of them.
The defining shot came at the 231-yard 11th hole, when his 4-iron never left the flag and stopped 3 feet in front of the hole.
What rust?
"I haven't hit too many money shots," he said. "At least not this kind of money."
Woods finished at 16-under 272 and earned $810,000.
He also sent a message to Ernie Els, who has emerged as his chief rival. Woods spent the morning watching highlights of Els' 10-stroke victory at the Johnnie Walker Classic in Australia, his fourth victory in five events this year.
The top two players in the world won't get together until the Match Play Championship in two weeks just north of San Diego.
"Everybody makes a big deal of how far he's hitting it," Woods said. "You can hit it 400 yards, but you've still got to make the putts."
That was a subtle message for Mickelson, too.
In an interview with Golf magazine, Mickelson said: "He hates that I can fly it by him now. He has a faster swing speed than I do, but he has inferior equipment. Tiger is the only player good enough to overcome the equipment he's stuck with."
Mickelson apologized for the remark this week. Both said it was no longer an issue, although Woods didn't forget it.
"Tiger was gracious about it, but I think he uses it as fuel," Faxon said. "As if he needs any more."
Lefty's consolation prize Sunday was hitting it past Woods off the tee, although he was 25 yards sideways on a couple of holes.
"He flew it by me a couple of times today, but I hit more fairways," Woods said. "I wasn't trying to pound it out there because I knew the rough was pretty high. I felt like it was more important to get the ball in play."
It was the 26th time Woods has won a PGA Tour event with Mickelson in the field, while Lefty has won only six of those tournaments.
Woods' head-to-head record over Mickelson is 65-28-3.
The two said they cleared the air over the equipment dispute earlier this week, and there were so signs of acrimony inside the ropes.
"I enjoy playing with him. I always have," Mickelson said. "My success rate isn't that great, but I enjoy the challenge."

If your current pillows are limp, lifeless, and about as comfortable as the floor, you may be in the market for a new set. You're wondering what the best type of pillow for you is, and you may have questions about memory foam pillows. We're here to discuss the benefits of memory foam pillows and why they are one of the best types of pillows for you to get.
First off, it's important to know that memory foam was discovered by NASA for use in NASA airplane seats. It was created to be soft and to evenly distribute a person's weight. This means that when you sleep there are no uncomfortable bumps or flat spots in your pillow- the pillow contours itself to your head. Not only does this mean a better night's sleep for you, but it also means a more cheerful morning. This is because the extra support to your head and neck will lead to reduced neck and back pain. If you suffer from pain in your neck and back, this really is a pillow you cannot live without.
In conclusion, memory foam pillows are the better pillow when considering (1) you get a better night's sleep and (2) your neck and back pain may be reduced. Although other pillows may be soft and fluffy, it's a rare pillow that can make these claims.

On Sunday, hackers took over the Reddit account and personal blog of Mark Karpeles, Mt. Gox's CEO, to post an angry screed alleging that the exchange he ran had actually kept at least some of the bitcoins that the company had said were stolen from users. "It's time that MTGOX got the bitcoin communities wrath instead of [the] Bitcoin Community getting Goxed," wrote the unidentified hackers, referring to the multiple occasions over its three year history when Mt.

I couldn't verify that Sunday's database dump was real, or that it showed any of the "lying" that the hackers claimed. In fact, it may simply show how Mt. Gox's accounting mismatched with its actual store of Bitcoins–that it was counting bitcoins as being safe in its coffers when they had already been stolen by thieves.

No Rx Maxalt
No rx maxalt Money contributions to a Puggle rescue are always a great way to help volunteers with expenses and make a difference in a Puggle's world. No rx maxalt So many rescued dogs are in need of Vet care, no rx maxalt and all require the basic necessities of life – food, no rx maxalt water and shelter – all of which costs money.
No rx maxalt Although you may wish you could do more for a rescue aside from donating money, no rx maxalt understand that providing such funds are greatly appreciated by the rescue. No rx maxalt Every donation made to a good animal rescue goes toward caring for the dogs, no rx maxalt and helping them find new loving homes.
No rx maxalt However, no rx maxalt did you know that you might be able to double the funds you donate to the Puggle rescue? Many employers will actually match charitable donations made by their employees. No rx maxalt This doesn't only mean matching money you may have donated, no rx maxalt but also if you sponsor or adopt a dog.
No rx maxalt This particular type of unique charitable donation matching is known as a Corporate Matching Gift program. No rx maxalt Most companies who participate in this program will match dollar for dollar when it comes to the charitable contribution made by their employee.
No rx maxalt Of course, no rx maxalt not every company will offer the corporate matching gift program, no rx maxalt so you will need to find out if your's does. No rx maxalt To learn if the business you work for is involved in the program, no rx maxalt contact your employer's Personal Department or Human Resources to find out more. No rx maxalt If you discover that the company you work for does offer this charity program, no rx maxalt simply ask for the proper form so you can fill it out and have you donation matched. No rx maxalt If they don't offer the program, no rx maxalt there's no harm in asking them if they would be interested in doing so.
No rx maxalt Aside from corporate matching gifts (or if the business you work for doesn't provide this option), no rx maxalt there is nothing wrong with asking your fellow co-workers if they would be interested in making a small donation to the Puggle Rescue with you. No rx maxalt Remember, no rx maxalt every little bit helps, no rx maxalt and there is no harm in asking. No rx maxalt Just make sure you don't hassle those who aren't interested. No rx maxalt A donation is a gift from the heart, no rx maxalt it shouldn't be forced.

Milwaukee County sheriff's official questions eviction law change
A top Milwaukee County sheriff's inspector says he is concerned about the effect a pending Assembly bill that changes the way evictions are handled in Wisconsin would have on law enforcement.
Inspector Edward Bailey told members of the Milwaukee legislative delegation in a letter that proposed changes in Assembly Bill 183 and a companion bill in the Senate "would not fit well with our experiences in a major urban city."
Bailey said it was his understanding the bill would give a landlord the ability to notify a sheriff's department that the tenants' property can be disposed of without the presence of law enforcement.
The bill states that if a tenant is evicted and leaves property behind, "the landlord may assume the tenant has abandoned the property," unless the parties have entered into a written agreement.Under existing law, if a landlord does not intend to store personal property left behind, the landlord must provide written notice to the tenant when the tenant enters into a rental agreement and when the tenant renews the agreement.
An aide to Rep. Duey Stroebel (R-Saukville) said the bill gives landlords the option of disposing of property themselves or having the sheriff's department in each county remove it with the help of a mover.
Bailey said deputies have made arrests at homes or apartments where evictions are under way, have had to protect movers and landlords from assault and have been attacked.

Skip to comments.A Day in the Life of President Bush (photos): 1.19.07
Posted on 01/19/2007 4:40:49 PM PST by GretchenM
I found no new photos of the president today but there are some photos of Laura in Paris, at the conference on Missing and Exploited Children. As Tony Snow's assistant conducted the press briefing today, and the State of the Union address is next Tuesday, January 23rd at 9:00 PM EST, it seems likely it is crunch time for getting the address ready.
Defense Secretary Gates continues his visit to Iraq, in Basra and Talil, where he is being briefed.
Jay Hein, Director of the WH Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, discussed the President's compassion agenda and the recently launched Compassion in Action Roundtables.
Text of Dana Perino's press briefing today (information on SoTU).
QUOTE: Tony Snow, yesterday: "... let me just show you a tiny bit of leg on the State of the Union address, but -- well, maybe it's just upper ankle, I'm not sure. It's not going to be a typical State of the Union address in the sense of going at great length through all the budget items. It's not going to take a comprehensive look at all portions of the budget.
"It will address major issues, including the war on terror, energy, health care, immigration, and education. When it comes to specific items, the President will be discussing within those general categories -- and he'll be talking about more, as well ... ."
Dear Dosers,
I've received inquiries in which Dosers have asked if we could refrain from using coarse language or sentiments in our posts on this thread. I pass on the requests while adding my wholehearted endorsement. If this doesn't apply to your posts, thank you for bulding up the spirit of Sanity Island.

A few notes about the State of the Union address that is coming up next Tuesday, January 23rd, at 9:00 p.m. In his State of the Union address, President Bush will address big issues facing our nation, including the war on terror, energy, immigration and education. The State of the Union is an opportunity for the President to unveil a positive, comprehensive agenda that will improve the daily lives of the American people, and to explain how our actions in the world will make our nation safer and better.
Americans should expect a discussion of the common sense principles that will provide the basis for President Bush's approach to governing with a new Congress -- again, as Tony said yesterday, it is not a laundry list of proposals.
President Bush will outline issues where he believes we can find common ground with the new Congress. Both parties share many of the same goals for the people they serve. We can find practical ways to advance the American Dream and keep our nation safe without either party compromising on its principles.
President Bush will discuss his determination to defeat the terrorists who are part of a broader extremist movement that is now doing everything it can to defeat us in Iraq. If the extremists prevail in Iraq, the American people will be less safe and our enemies will be emboldened and more lethal.
Gates, with Gen. George Casey in Basra, Iraq. Gates traveled to Iraq Friday for his second visit in a less than a month, plunging into talks with U.S. and other allied commanders.
I am getting a bar of soap to wash out the mouths of guilty parties. I will start with myself as I prolly offended someone , sometime , along the way

I am getting a bar of soap to wash out the mouths of guilty parties. I will start with myself as I prolly offended someone , sometime , along the way
LOL...me too.....I can have a potty mouth sometimes....please don't use dial though....yuck!
Laura Bush speaks Wednesday during a U.S. Tri-Missions greeting at the United States Embassy in Paris. On stage with Mrs. Bush are: Ambassador and Mrs. Craig Stapleton, Ambassador Louise Oliver, and Ambassador Connie Morella.
Well, I am NOT up on what soaps taste the best.
How about if we use martini's instead?
A martini works for me...lol...
We hit 100 percent on the FReepathon while the Dose was going up!
Congrats on your toaster win, Dolly, and pass some soap my way, I'm probably a repeat offender (I blame the wine...)
Your posts bring to mind Ralpie's remarks on going blind from having had his mouth washed out with soap too many times ("A Christmas Story"), and the slightly piquant taste of Lifebuoy.
Good evening!
You weren't one of the provocateurs for the request to keep the place clean.
Hi Kaslin, not only do I not mind the ping to the other thread, I am grateful for it.
Kaslin brought this thread to my attention.
[President Bush] The courage of his convictions
InsightMagazine.com ^ | January 16, 2007 | Donald Lambro
If President Bush's decision to send 21,500 troops to Iraq tells us anything about him, it is this: He isn't someone who bases his policies on the polls or the results of the last election.
He is acting on his deepest conviction that, as he said in his address to the nation, we are engaged in the decisive ideological struggle of our time against Islamic extremists who have declared war against the West and the United States, in particular.
Abraham Lincoln, beset by a series of defeats and setbacks in the Civil War, told the nation we must think anew so that we may act anew. Mr. Bush, facing a long guerrilla war that his new secretary of defense said we are losing, essentially told Americans that failure was not an option and that we must readjust our military strategy so that We can and we will prevail.
It was a gutsy, sober decision that he knows will hardly make him more popular with the American people. Polls show that nearly two-thirds of all Americans oppose the war and think it was a mistake. His party lost the House and Senate in an election that turned into a referendum on the war.
But Mr. Bush has long ago made peace with the fact that he is not going to win any popularity contests for the remainder of his presidency as long as the war continues and casualties mount.
Sending more troops to secure the Iraqi capital against a stronger and far more lethal insurgency is clearly in the long-term security interests of our country, and he is willing to leave office two years from now with low-approval polls but secure in the knowledge that he fought the terrorists as hard as he could and kept America safer than it was before he came into office.
Only now Mr. Bush faces two wars, one in Iraq and the other on Capitol Hill, where Democrats were gearing up to challenge him on two fronts: 1) A nonbinding resolution that declares Congress' disapproval of increased combat forces and calls for troop withdrawal by this year. 2) Withholding funding for any additional forces being sent there or other provisions that would further restrict appropriations for the war.
But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid should be careful about overplaying their hand on both scores. Thus far, as most polls show, a majority of Americans oppose an immediate or precipitous pullout of all forces in Iraq that would result in a bloodbath for the Iraqi people. Indeed, a number of Democrats would not support a speedy withdrawal if it would endanger our remaining forces there.
A congressional funding cutoff, which would have to clear a 60-vote hurdle in the Senate and then overcome a presidential veto, would be a political disaster for the Pelosi Democrats. It would threaten needed funds for our troops in the midst of war. How many Democrats would want to vote for that?
Mr. Bush explained the stakes in Iraq last week without sugarcoating what the future holds, even if his plan succeeds in pacifying Baghdad and the terrorist-infested Anbar province.
Even if our new strategy works exactly as planned, deadly acts of violence will continueand we must expect more Iraqi and American casualties, he said. The question, he added, is whether our new strategy will bring us closer to success. I believe it will.
I think we will see a change for the better on the streets of Baghdad with increased troop levels. But if there is one change I would make in the new strategy, it would be a much sharper increase in the number of U.S. forces to train more Iraqi fighters.
The bipartisan Iraq Study Group proposed a massive increase in the number of U.S. military trainers by 10,000 to 20,000 to quickly escalate the size and skill of the Iraqi army. Mr. Bush's plan would just expand the number of advisers embedded in existing Iraqi forces.
The key to longer-term success and to an eventual drawdown of U.S. forces is a larger, better-trained Iraqi security force that can bear the brunt of the fighting and kill more of the enemy. That side of the military equation must be ramped up beyond anything that is now being contemplated.
Meantime, Mr. Bush is fully committed to his new strategy. He has received new promises from Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to commit additional brigades to the war and to get a lot tougher combating sectarian violence. Mr. Bush is bringing new generals into Iraq and the region, and a new ambassador into Baghdad, to carry out the plan.
He is embarked on this course because all of the other options, such as a phased withdrawal this year, were nonstarters in his mindsignaling to the terrorists that they had won, that we would back down in the face of their threats and that would make us and the free world more vulnerable to their attacks.
It was perhaps the toughest and loneliest decision of his presidency but one that was made solely to keep our country safe.
Hi Gretchen...I see your disclaimer...I don't recall using bad language, but if I did...I apologize, and promise to be good from now on...LOL
The Freepathon is a HUGH success...we had 2 Freepers upping the ante to get their STATE, number 1...it was a lot of fun to watch.
TWO wonderful freepers to thank tonight,..Gitmo Soldier, and Red Rover.
Of course...that doesn't count all of the great freepers that keep the Freepathon going for several weeks like onyx and Mo1 and STARWISE, BigSkyFreeper,Lady Jag...JR, etc.
no... actually I am prolly one that was complained ABOUT
The First Lady's remarks in post #15 remind me of the great story of the OK girl who was kidnapped, but is now safe. I don't know whether they have caught the piece of human garbage who kidnapped her, yet. Here's the link:
That was funny. Gretchen. The house where the movie was shot is in Cleveland area & now opened for tours & a museum with memoriabila available. I was there before Christmas & got the DVD. Took lots of pix outdoors & at museum.
That's what I was trying to say, you were not one whose posts brought forth the request. (But who am I to meddle with one's conscience?) =)
Coarse language? When was that?
Define coarse.
Gates is cute. Hope some of that Rummy toughness hides behind that benign exterior.
I wonder how Laura's leg is healing. I notice she's still in pants, which is fine, but most of the ladies are in skirts and I wonder if she's still hiding a scar/bandage, etc.
Yeah! Bubba likes Ivory best, but he gets the soap out of my bathroom every morning unless I remember to put it out of reach. He tastes it and then puts it down on the carpet.
So I'm going with the martini. The alcohol should kill any of our mouth problems.
"Define coarse."
Profanity, vulgarisms, crudeness, that sort of thing.
Dictionary.com has this:
lacking in fineness or delicacy of texture, structure, etc.
harsh; grating.
lacking delicacy, taste, or refinement; unpolished
common; base.
vulgar; obscene; crude
Gretchen, trust me, I can say "My what a beautiful blue sky" and SOMEONE will be offended.
And when I am really chatting away, well, then even normal folks can be offended. I think we all somewhere say things that people don't like. I like movies, pets, am a vegetarian, & Christian & those four things alone will provoke people.
well, I am going to go check pings & email, find a pix for Eleanor to use & check the newside
good pix today. I am betting POTUS is working very hard on his speech. It is an important one
I have read some of the remarks Gates has made, and, though he may not be as tough as Mr. Toughness himself, he seems to have great potential.
It's come up from time to time. Enough that I've received more than a few FRmails on the subject. Before my computer crashed, I received two more on the same day so I felt it was time to make the request.
Thanks for the link. I was wondering how that kidnapping came out. All they had was white car and 40 something guy.
I'll go to your link in a minute.
Yes! Every one of you Dose Posters rock majorly! Thank you sincerely for all that you do!
That's funny. I wonder what the attraction is. I'm deathly allergic to Dove soap. Gives me migraines and makes me as limp and lifeless as a rag doll just to be in a home where it is unwrapped on the bathroom sink.
The bold was all done by me to emphyzise what I thought was important
Hmm...okay. Well, anyway, thanks for the Dose. Just wish I could be enjoying it from my room. :(
But that was long enough ago that I couldn't remember it.
So then another part of my mind reassured me that this meant I was probably not one of the provocateurs.
But then yet another part said, cynically, yeah - just means the Alzheimer's is setting in if I can't remember that.
Meanwhile a little devil in me was saying - shush now and just go back and find those naughty posts - might be fun reading.
Nah, said yet another corner of my mind ... just chuckle at ones silly thoughts and move on.
I don't know, but dogs are weird.
A long time ago I got Ivory for the DP as he had really dry skin and I think he was using one of those deodorant soaps like Zest.
Bubba took a shine to Ivory. We now use Dove. (hold your breath here, kid) and Bubba keeps thinking since it is white that he might get some good old ivory.
He never gives up hope!!
When someone says, "I know what you did," we all take it personally.
Thanks, Cow, I needed that. As I FRmailed to another Doser, I prayed a lot over the request before posting tonight's Dose because I figured the people who were the least likely to have posted anything offensive were probably the most likely to wonder if they were part of the reason for the post.

Ordered a battery & after 1 1/2 months I finally got the wrong battery. The said there was a problem with their website & 3 orders were lost that day (but they were able to charge my card) & that was delay. After multiple emails with threatening to t...urn it over to the credit card company as a fraudulent charge, I was told that they would just cancel the order & reimburse me. They would either do it through PayPal or send a check via 2 day mail. Opted for the check on 4/29. On 5/6 still hadn't received a check & they would look into it. On 5/12 they replied to another email & said check was send out 5/12 regular mail. They told me that if they could do it through PayPal they could instantly pay me back. Gave them my personal PayPal info & waited 2 days for the payment. After almost 3 months finally got the mess taken care of. Will NEVER buy anything from these guys again. Found a cheaper battery on Amazon & will have the battery in less then a week. Read more Less

I bought an A/C adapter on Sept 12, 2014. I paid extra money for expedited shipping. I received an email containing the tracking # the next day. After a couple of weeks I still hadn't received my product. I looked up tracking # and Fed Ex stated it h...ad never received shipment. I called company...actually got to talk to someone. They assured me they would investigate the matter but at any rate would ship me another adapter. After a couple more weeks I never received anything. So I did one of the online chats with a customer service rep. They again assured me they would get my part sent out ASAP and refund my shipping fees. Again a couple of weeks go by and still no product. I have sent countless emails, left countless messages on their voice mail and I get no response. I finally submitted a request asking for a refund and again have not gotten any response. I am out my money for the part and also the $35 for my expedited shipping fees. This company is a bunch of thieves and are not the legitimate company they portray on their website. I wish I could do more to make them accountable for what they are doing to people....but hopefully others reading these reviews will save themselves money and heartache and avoid buying anything from these people!!!

Placed an order for a laptop battery on 10/22/14. Received an email with a tracking number the next day. For two weeks, tracking only showed that a ticket had been printed. On 11/6/14 I called USPS and they said the package was never sent by the ship...per. I called and emailed the GetPartsOnline, no response. Next day I called and emailed again, no response. I was forced to contact AmEx so that the payment would be blocked and I could get a credit.

I ordered a battery. Next day I received wrong tracking number (some 2013 shipping to Hong Kong). During one week I sent 3 emails asking for good tracking number. I never received an answer. Soon after I received the battery but wasn't detected by th...e computer and apparently it was completely discharged. I took a chance and left the computer all night long plugged to the AC adapter. Next day battery was detected by the computer. I guess battery was way too long stored completely discharged and only by a chance it woke up.

I don't think that they are a bad company, but I bought a processor for an old laptop from them and I am just throwing away the laptop entirely and getting a new one. This should not be the result of doing business with them. I don't care if you have...a disclaimer about compatibility the fact is you have compatible models in very large, bold, writing that gives the consumer a sense of confidence that you know what you are talking about. Until they really review and see your disclaimer that your compatibility write ups don't mean jack because you are not certain of them. "generally correct" is not acceptable. Also, shipping is atrocious. It should not have cost me THREE TIMES the cost of the part to ship a processor that weighs a few ounces only. Never doing business with these people again.

On 16th May 2014 I placed an order for 2 SODIMM-PC5300-1GB_Mem_N-4

I immediately sen...t across the correct address so that the memory sticks could be sent out.On 12th April 2014 I sent a follow-up email as I had not received the memory sticks.On 15th April 2014 I received a response from Jonathan stating that an email had been sent to me (I can find no record of this) stating that the memory sticks I had requested were out of stock, but that I could be supplied with 2x pcs-6400 memory for the same price. I was asked to supply my laptop model number to ensure compatibility.On18th April 2014 I replied to state that I had not received the earlier email it was claimed was sent, and that I would accept the 2x pcs-6400 memory providing it was compatible with a HP DV6680ea laptop.On 28th April 2014, I sent a follow-up response as I had not heard anything back.On 28th April 2014 I received a response from Jonathan stating that my earlier response had been missed and that the parts would be sent out as soon as possible that day.On 6th May 2014 I sent a follow-up email to confirm that the order had been despatched as promised.

Power back on for most after stormThe Associated Press | June 24,2013RUTLAND - An intense thunder storm and high winds have swept through central Vermont, knocking out power to thousands of homes and businesses, mostly in the Rutland area.
The National Weather Service says the fierce storms began around 5:30 p.m. Sunday and quickly caused outages.
Green Mountain Power reported 10,000 customers without power. By this morning, that number was down to about 300.
Company spokeswoman Dorothy Schnure said in a statement this morning that the storm brought down many power lines and trees. She said since much of the damage was concentrated in Rutland, crews were able to come together in one area and restore power quickly.

Syd Michael of Spike Promotions, Inc. Has Announced The Launch of An Online Digital Training Academy.
Syd Michael of Spike Promotions, Inc. has announced the launch of a new online digital training academy, LocalTrainingAcademy.com, directed toward helping local marketing agencies keep up with the latest trends in doing business online. It is a low-cost monthly membership site full of a variety of training videos, written summaries, and a private Facebook Group where members can ask questions and get answers from experts.
Michael says, "It's difficult for smaller marketing firms to stay on top of the regularly changing landscape online, particularly with Google and Facebook. Since I am on a team that spends thousands of dollars keeping up with all of this, I thought, 'Why not share this information?' and Local Training Academy was born from this desire."
The membership site has over 175 training videos, broken down into what Michael calls "Coffee-Break-Size" training modules. The subjects are diverse and include basics such as: Google Ranking, Citation Sites (other business pages online), Social Media, YouTube and other video marketing, Reputation Management, and building a WordPress website or blog.
Weekly live sales training calls, along with the replays posted a day later are part of the success blueprint offered by Local Training Academy.
"It's our goal," says Michael, "to provide an all-in-one-place for smaller marketing firms to get everything they need – from information and solid training to encouragement and the benefit of a lively community of like-minded entrepreneurs."
For more information on the Local Training Academy, please call Syd Michael at 1-800-589-6140. You may also visit: http://localtrainingacademy.com/go for a detailed presentation.

Milwaukee Rep's 'Sense and Sensibility' sometimes lost in translation
Nearly four years ago, the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's production of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" shattered box-office records. The Rep has now returned to the well, drawing upon Austen's "Sense and Sensibility." This time, the bucket that emerges is barely half-full.
Austen's first published novel, "Sense" revolves around sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, who enact the drama central to all of Austen's fiction: In a world where being female is never easy, how can a woman be true to herself by expressing all that she feels (sensibility) - while also managing sufficient reserve to keep her autonomy (sense)? »Read Full Article(1)

We have been looking for a sign from above all season long to tell us that this Nevada Wolf Pack football season will be different.
Any indication, any clue at all, if only to reassure us that this season will end the pain and suffering of losing 10 consecutive games to the Boise State Broncos.
Any little sign at all will do.
A cloud in the shape of Chris Ault's profile. A four-leaf clover mysteriously growing out of the Mackay Stadium rubber and plastic turf. A silver and blue rainbow arching from one Mackay Stadium end zone to the other. A photo of Jeff Tisdel, David Neill and Chris Lemon -- the last Pack coach, quarterback and running back to beat Boise State in 1998 -- gently floating aimlessly down Virginia Street. Proof that Boise State gave Kellen Moore's father a Porsche, season tickets to Seattle Seahawks games and a $50 gift card to Starbucks.
Anything. We're not picky. Any little sign will do.
Well, that sign finally arrived Saturday night at Fresno State.
The Wolf Pack beat a good football team on the road, stunning the Bulldogs, 35-34. The Pack beat a team that had been preparing for this game, this moment for an entire year. The Pack won a game they really had no right winning. The Pack showed that, yes, it could overcome adversity, something Boise tosses in their face like orange and blue confetti every single year.
It was the sign we've been waiting for all season.
"To win a game like that on the road, against a good football team in a hostile environment, and to win it the way we won it, says a lot about this football team," Pack head coach Chris Ault said this week as his team prepared for its final Boise tune-up against New Mexico State on Saturday at Mackay.
The Pack hasn't had many come-from-behind, adversity-filled victories on the road against a good football team in recent years. Louisiana Tech in 2008 was the last one before Saturday.
This wasn't just one Colin Kaepernick Heisman pose after another on his way to the end zone. Running back Vai Taua had five Fresno red coats on his back all night. Fresno didn't simply quit midway through the second quarter like most Western Athletic Conference foes. The Pack defense looked feeble at times and amazing at all the right times.
That's how they won it. They did a million things wrong and a million and one things right.
"If you want a chance to compete for a championship, you have to win on the road and that's what we did," Ault said.
OK, it wasn't a Chris Ault cloud wafting over Fresno's football field. It wasn't a poetic sign from above. This was much better. Clouds, after all, don't beat Boise.
"We had to be mentally tough, physically tough and we had to keep fighting," Kaepernick said. "In games like that you have to keep battling and eventually things will fall your way."
We originally thought the sign that this year will indeed be different arrived on a magical September evening at Mackay Stadium earlier this year. That's when the Pack whipped the snooty California Golden Bears of the we're-doing-you-a-favor-by-finally-playing-you-at-your-place Pac-10 Conference. We thought that was all the sign we needed that this Pack team was more special than the good-but-not-great Pack teams of recent vintage.
But that victory over the California Fool's Golden Bears, while majestic, impressive and certainly unforgettable, was really nothing more than a false sense of security. All that golden ticket got the Pack was a chance to meet some creepy Oompa Loompas and a bellyache from eating too many Wonka bars.
And that bellyache stuck around for a long time.
It forced the Pack to stagger and sleepwalk through victories over mediocre-to-bad BYU, UNLV, San Jose State and Utah State teams. And it left them too bloated to win at the ultimate adventure in Wonkaland in Hawaii.
Yes, the Pack destroyed Idaho and looked good doing it. Very good. But been there, done that, folks. Crushing bad WAC teams means nothing when it comes to beating Boise. Remember last year's three consecutive ego-boosters against San Jose, Fresno and New Mexico State? Those victories were the Pack's version of getting fat and happy on Willy Wonka's Everlasting Gobstoppers. Idaho, for all we knew, was going to be the same thing.
That's because nothing that happened since the Cal game suggested that the Pack's seemingly everlasting losing streak to Boise would end before Chris Ault's grandchildren had grandchildren of their own.
Until Saturday night.
This was a game that the Wolf Pack most assuredly would have lost last year, the year before that and, well, every other year since Boise discovered football in 1999.
Fresno, a team that just might be every bit as good as Cal, was waiting for the Pack.
"That game was their season," Ault said. "They said they had our game circled on their calendar all year. We saw their best effort of the year."
Cal looked like it didn't even know what stadium it was in back in September. They looked like the only film they watched that involved a pistol and Nevada was an old western with John Wayne.
Fresno State, though, wanted the Wolf Pack in the worst way. Fresno coach Pat Hill admitted this week that he changed his team's practice routine this season in an effort to stop Ault's Pistol offense. The Pack, after all, had destroyed Hill's Bulldogs the past two years and they did it with a kid (Turlock's Kaepernick) that should have been wearing Fresno red.
And, don't forget, this game was not only about sending a message to future recruits but also for next season when Fresno and Nevada will battle it out for a WAC title with Boise off winning the Mountain West Conference.
It was, without question, the biggest game not involving Boise State this season in the WAC. And Fresno knew it. That's why the Bulldogs were prepared to ambush the Wolf Pack in much the same way the Pack ambushed Cal in September.
The difference is the Pack stole the victory at Fresno. That difference is why this year could be the year Wolf Pack fans have been yearning for since 1998.
Ault, who never likes to put any added significance on any one victory or loss, especially in the middle of a season, admitted his football team took a huge character-building step in Fresno.
"That's what we told the kids in the locker room after the game," Ault said. "We told them, 'The difference between this game and Hawaii (a 27-21 perfect-season ruining loss) is you found a way to win in the fourth quarter."
That's how you beat Boise. Boise is not Idaho or San Jose State. You don't beat Boise State in the first quarter. You don't beat Boise by being bored, bloated, fat and happy. You don't beat Boise without first beating a bushel full of adversity.
You beat Boise like you beat Fresno on Saturday. With heart, determination, character and three hours of frustration and anger clinging to your back.
"Until you do it, you never know if you can," Ault said. "There comes a time when you have to stop talking about it and just go out and do it."
That time arrived last Saturday.

I've been with Dr.Solomon for over 15 years and i wouldn't go anywhere else. She so sweet and awesome!!!
I have been going to Dr. Solomon for over 10 years and she has been wonderful. I would recommend her to my family and friends. II have followed her from Methodist to St. Paul's Professional Building back to Methodist. She follows up with her patients if you have any issues and she's also very concerned with your well being. I am going to be at a loss when she retires. She's great!
Dr. Solomon was very knowledgeable and her years of experience showed based on the medical suggestions and diagnosis. She is very personable, professional and has no airs about being a physician and very easy to talk to. I have been her patient for about 5 years now and I have found her clinical and diagnostics skills to be superior to excellent from my experience with other kinds of physicians. I will recommend her without reservation.
I would never recommend this doctor to anyone. Very unprofessional. I regret ever going there!

Hi, What a handsome shirt! I love the fabric and all of the details you've "hidden" inside of the collar band, cuffs and hem. I agree, keep 'em coming! You do such a great job :-)) Thanks, Pam
Thank you Pam. I now find myself looking at any detail a shirt may have so I may incorporate later in one of my own..Thank you so much for one of the best craftsy class I have completed as of yet.
Great shirt and, like Pam, I love the hidden detailing
Thanks I appreciate it.
I know this is an old post but I wanted to know what you finished the bottom hem with?
I really like the fabric! It really makes the whole project pop! It's beautiful.
Thank you, my son loves the colors too!
HI Mary, The hem binding was done with a bias cut cotton shirting fabric that I also used on the cuffs, and inside neck band. The width is personal preference. I hope this helps, and good luck.
Wow.....just great. He'll never want RTW again. My husband is already begging me to make him a custom shirt. Maybe next year.

The one path that never works is the most common one: doing nothing at all. – Seth Godin, Tribes
Why are we so afraid of risk? Probably because we make ourselves believe that what we have is better than the risk involved with getting what comes with change. Plus, there's never any guarantees that what change brings will actually be better than what you've already got. However, the thing that change brings is rarely as good in the beginning as what is already here. It takes time and if you expect the new thing to be better or successful right away than you'll never begin. Without the willingness to take a risk, there is no change. That is why it's called a leap of faith. And where would the human race be if it wasn't for numerous leaps of faith over time.
And so we settle. Settling is a bad habit that takes you down the path to mediocrity. Honestly, who wants to be mediocre? So many unhappy people are a product of their efforts to preserve the status quo and actively attempt to resist change. As I mentioned in my last post, religion then gets in the way of faith. Stuck gets in the way of momentum. Rules get in the way of principles.
We are so lucky. Think about all those around us with not enough to eat, or without the chance to get an education. Advantages. Opportunities. With what we've got, how can we dare to defend the status quo? What improvidence. Therefore, we should all feel obligated not to settle.
Heretics don't settle. Life is way too short. Yes, creating change takes a mountain of energy. Preserving mediocrity can take just as much. Why waste the energy and the one life you have being and doing what's average?
Seth Godin, author of Tribes, describes this as not colouring inside the lines. Godin says,
"Remarkable visions and genuine insight are always met with resistance. And when you start to make progress, your efforts are met with even more resistance. If it were any other way, it would be easy. And if it were any other way, everyone would do it and your work would be devalued."
The realization that the customer, in community youth sport, is not always right because they do not understand the concept of developmental appropriateness is a fine example of a genuine insight that will always be met with resistance. No parent wants to be told they don't understand what is best for their child. Community sport organizations that give parents what they want (even if it isn't developmentally appropriate) are choosing to colour inside the lines. They fear what those parents will do with their membership dollars if they don't.
Unfortunately many parents of youth sport participants don't understand the need for developmentally appropriate programming. Nor do many youth sport organizations. Parents ask organizations to give them what they want. Organizations comply. What they get is what has always been done and done the way it always has been done. Hey, it worked fine for them when they were kids so if it was good enough for mum or dad it's good enough for junior.
But creating developmentally appropriate programming that works is a challenging mission because there is so little of it around. While we know it is the right thing to do, we end up creating from scratch the programs which means many trials and tribulations. When a program that attempts to be developmentally appropriate fails, the typical response is to say that it didn't work and that the old way is better. And at that point, there are plenty of organizations around waving us over to their programs saying that they do it the right way because they are sticking to what has always been done.
For someone that doesn't understand developmental appropriateness, that situation can be very convincing. For an organization that doesn't understand the need for developmental appropriateness, that situation can be down right scary when you see your members leaving to go for what they are familiar and have comfort with.
Greatness comes from conquering fear and not colouring inside the lines. The only true sign of greatness is an organization's willingness to not be great along the way. In doing what is right for the participants (and not necessarily popular for the adult egos involved) you risk failure. This tolerance of failure on the journey to reaching the bigger goal is the true secret of success. Tolerance requires faith. Success takes commitment. Commitment takes time. This requires more faith than most organizations I have seen have been willing to commit.
If a community sport organization requires success before commitment it will never have either and will spend its time flip-flopping between numerous watered down visions for player development or latching on to a religion that puts the adult first and not the participant. No faith in the short-term, little development in the long-term.
Mediocrity. Colouring inside the lines.
We can and must do better.

Bean Pod
In this Article

- What is Bean Pod?
- How does Bean Pod work?
- Are there safety concerns?
- Are there any interactions with medications?
- Dosing considerations for Bean Pod.
How does Bean Pod work?Bean pods are a source of dietary fiber. Fiber might help to prevent cholesterol absorption and increase the elimination of dietary fat.
Products containing bean pod extracts often claim to be "starch blockers." Promoters offer this as a rationale for using their products for weight loss. But research shows that these products do not seem to decrease the absorption of starch.
Are there safety concerns?There is some evidence that bean pod extracts are POSSIBLY SAFE for most adults when taken by mouth for 2 or 3 months. However, eating large amounts of fresh bean husks are POSSIBLY UNSAFE. Raw husks contain chemicals that can cause stomach upset, vomiting, and diarrhea. Cooking destroys these chemicals.
Special Precautions & Warnings:Pregnancy and breast-feeding: There is not enough reliable information about the safety of taking bean pod if you are pregnant or breast feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
Diabetes: Bean pod may lower blood sugar. If you have diabetes, monitor your blood sugar closely. The dose of your diabetes medications may need to be adjusted by your healthcare provider.
Surgery: Bean pod might affect blood sugar levels. There is some concern that it might interfere with blood sugar control during and after surgery. Stop taking bean pod at least 2 weeks before a scheduled surgery.

One thing is for sure about the new coaching staff at Southern Methodist University, they aren't shy or scared to battle some of the big boys in recruiting.
Under new head coach June Jones, the Mustangs already have three commitments for it's 2009 class and are going after some of the state's and area's top athletes no matter who has offered them.
One such case is Shreveport's Jonathan Stewart, middle linebacker from Byrd High School. Currently Byrd has 18 official offers including one from SMU.
"I definitely have interest in SMU," Stewart told PonyStampede.com Saturday afternoon. "I hope to take an unofficial visit to their campus in the next few weeks. I have heard great things about SMU and their new coach."
Stewart has offers from SMU, Cal, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, TCU, Michigan, Duke, Georgia Tech, Arkansas, Notre Dame, Kentucky, Ole Miss, Miss. State, Tennessee, ULM, Southern Miss, Oklahoma State and Arizona.
According to Stewart he isn't ruling anyone out at this point.
"I plan on taking some trips this summer and check out schools first hand," Stewart said. "I went to Junior Days at A&M, Miss. State, and LSU this spring. Right now I'm looking at everyone and keeping my options open. SMU has really come on strong in their recruitment."
Stewart does plan on perhaps narrowing his list down perhaps as early as the end of the month.
"I want to cut the list down some," Stewart said. "Hopefully I will get to see some of the schools before that happens. I won't be attending any summer camps this year; I just plan on taking unofficial visits."
Three things that are important to Stewart in picking a school are academics, the coaching staff and campus life.
Stewart has already scored a 20 on the ACT and has a 3.5 G.P.A.
