Filters, be they standard filters from the Filters menu or those from the live filters collection in the Properties panel, are a creative playground. Add to that other techniques such as masking, and your options for creativity are virtually limitless. Here is an example file we're going to be working with. All the assets are on the screen at the moment. We're going to be playing around with them quite a bit. I just want to show you what this actually looks like when it's done. Here I have a start page here. I also have a finished page. So I'm just going to click on the finished version. You can see things have changed significantly.
The text has been styled differently, a very soft fade to a blurry background where we muted out the color. And we played around a bit with adding some Noise and other effects to the lemons. Now we're going to concentrate, at the moment, on the Background. So you'll see everything I've got here is all in one big layer. And I think what I'm going to is just sort of separate things a bit. So I'm going to click on layer 1 and call it foreground. I'm going to select elements that are all part of my foreground, my logo, and my text, and I'm just going to drag those guys into my foreground area, just trying to keep things organized. There.
I'm going to collapse the foreground. And then I'm going to take a look at these two images here. Now both of these are the same image. So I'm going to start off by hiding the top object. I'm going to grab the lower one, select it. And what I'm going to do here is apply a Blur. Now I'm going to do this with my live filters. Again, I like working with the live filters when I can because they are editable at all times. So I'm going to choose Plus sign and go to Blur, and choose Gaussian Blur. Now how much Blur you choose is really up to you. Again, the great thing is I don't have to make up my mind right now.
I can leave it at this default setting of 4.1 and I can change it later on. So I'm going to leave it as it stands for the time being. I'm going to click OK. So now we have an out of focus orange grove, not to worry. We're getting to the point where these two tie together. I want to do one more thing with this particular image. And I want to de-saturate it. Again, another live filter, go to Adjust Color and choose Hue/Saturation. I'm going to set the Lightness back down to the mid 0 value here. I just want to suck out some of the color here.
So I'm going to reduce this color down to about -60. And you can see how it's turning into a very pastel type of image, almost like an old faded photograph, and that's the effect I'm going for here. I'm going to click OK. I'm going to bring back my original image, make it visible. So we've hidden the other one completely from view. Now here is where the masking comes in. I'm going to do this really quickly and easily. I'm going to use my Auto Vector Mask tool. So I'm going to go up to my Commands > Creative > Auto Vector Mask. And I want to go from solid on the right -hand side to transparent on the left.
So I'm going to grab that particular version. If I move the dialog box out of the way, you can see what's happening at the moment. We're seeing that fade from nice colorful image into a more muted out of focus image, and that's a general goal I'm aiming for. So I'm going to click Apply. And I want to make a couple of more changes to the way this mask is affecting the image. I'm going to go and reposition things. I'm going to change the angle of my gradient. I'm going to drag it up towards the upper corner, and I'm going to adjust the starting point as well. And then adjust the length of the gradient again, too.
And you can see what's happening here. As I move this starting point, you can see how it fades more or less of the image into that background image. Now the other thing I want to do with this top image is I think I want to make it even punchier, add a little more Saturation to it. So I'm going to go to my live filters, and I'm going to choose Adjust Color. And I'm going to work with Hue/Saturation again. And this time though, I'm going to increase the Saturation, and I'm going to click OK, so a fairly subtle effect. And again, if I want to double check that setting, I can always go back down to my live filters, and I can deselect the option or reselect it.
And as I do this, I'll see the change hidden from view. So I'm going to keep it I think for now. I think that works out fairly well. Next up is our Text. Now as it is, it stands out fairly well, the white text against the darker background, but I would like to do more with this. And I'm going to use a style to change my text. So I'm going to select the text. Go to my Styles panel and style that I want to work with is in my Text Creative Styles here, and there is quite a few to pick from. And one of the ways I normally work with Styles is I just start clicking until I find something that I like.
And I think I am liking that one, but we'll just try a couple of other ones here, not so much, definitely not. So that's a style I can work with. Now a Style is basically a collection of different effects. If you take a look over in the Properties panel again, you'll notice that the live filters panel has gotten populated with a whole bunch of different live filters, and these are all the different Filters that were needed to produce that effect. Tie that in with things such as this text color, and the text stroke, all these things work together to produce that final result.
And the great thing is, if I want to customize that Style, I can go into any one of these Filters and make changes and basically make it my own. All right. There is my Text taken care of. The next thing I'm going to do is mask the lemon down at the bottom right corner. Now you can do this with any of the Bitmap Selection tools. I use the Magic Wand to do it, but for expediency's sake, I've already saved a bitmap selection that we're going to apply to this lemon. So I'm going to go up to my Select menu, and choose Restore Bitmap Selection. And inside of here, I have a bitmap Selection called lemon, and all I need to do is click OK.
And I get my bitmap selection running around my lemon. Now you will notice it's not a perfect selection. And that's because I also feathered the selection so I get a slightly blended effect. So once the selection has been put into place, I can just go to my foreground images, select my lemon and click on my Add Mask icon in the Layers panel. And right away, I've removed the entire background so that's not too bad. Now I'm going to zoom out a bit again, and let's do a little bit more with that lemon.
I want to add a bit more texture to it. Again, make it more of a stylized kind of thing rather than just the actual fruit itself. So I'm going to Select the lemon, and go to my Filters panel, and I'm going to choose Noise this time, and I'm going to select Add Noise. We get this real pebbly texture throughout the bitmap image, which is a bit extreme at the moment. I'm going to tone this down to a significantly lower Amount, maybe something in there just to add a little bit of roughness to it. Maybe I'll type in a value of 10 and click OK.
I want to add in another one of them, and just sort of stack them together. So I'm just going to go up to my Edit menu and choose Duplicate. And Duplicate gives me an exact copy, but sets it off from the original so I can easily find it. Now - right now it's an exact copy. It's the exact same position, exact same size and everything. I'm going to rotate the lemon around a little bit with the Scaling tool, change the angle a little bit, like so. And I'm going to add in one more live filter on this specific lemon to add in a Drop Shadow and an Inner Shadow to add a little more depth to things.
So we'll go to my live Filters menu, and I'll choose Shadow and Glow, and we'll start off with the Drop Shadow. Now, by default, it's in the wrong place. It's over on the right-hand side. I want to change that around. I can do that by changing the Angle. I basically want that shadow to sort of fall on top of the other lemon. I can also increase the size of the shadow. I think I'll make it a little bit larger, and I think I will adjust the angle a little bit more. There were go, something along that line there, and I'll just click away from that editing box to lock in the changes.
And I'll add in one more live filter here, back into my Shadow and Glow, and I'll choose Inner Shadow. And again, this one also is not quite in the right place. So I'm going to go ahead and change that angle as well. And I'm going to increase the size, and maybe make it a little bit softer. And then adjust the angle yet again. All right. I'll just click away from that dialog box. And I've got the three Filters added. Now if I want to check the effect again, I can just hide the Inner Shadow. And this is basically where I want it to be, which is great, and it's overlapping the other lemon.
I could also scale the lemon too, if I wanted it to be a different size. Again, keep in mind, this is a bitmap object. So you don't want to make it bigger than it started out as. You can certainly make it a bit smaller, but don't make it any larger. So I'll zoom out. We'll take a look at the whole production again. So we've done quite a bit here: masking images, applying and customizing Filters, all with the stock features of Fireworks. Now keep in mind, you can also download many third-party Filters, often called plug-ins, from the Web and often they're free. Adding these other plug-ins to your Fireworks inventory is going to expand your options significantly.

March Madness, which tipped off on Tuesday night, is one of the most exciting tournaments in American sports and is certainly much more popular than the college basketball regular season.
Between the fact that 68 teams make the tournament, as well as the single-elimination factor, March Madness provides plenty of drama for both players and fans.
However, as exciting as March Madness is, it is not as great as the NFL, which is currently the most popular sport in the country by a mile.
Here are 10 reasons why the NFL is better than March Madness.

[REF WATCH]Ecuador's referees reacted to a measure banning strikes by referees - by going on strike.
The referees agreed on Tuesday not to work in "any friendly game, official game or any of the various categories of Ecuadorian soccer, until the ruling that harms this institution is repealed."
Club directors and the nation's soccer federation on Friday passed the rule that said "any referee that goes on strike, abandoning a game after it has been properly scheduled by the FEF will be struck from roll."

Adapted from a recent online discussion.
Question: I have 10-year-old twin sons. They are both really nice boys, do well in school, have a good group of friends, help around the house, etc. However, I am starting to struggle with one who is turning into a button-pusher, specifically my button- pusher. He seems to go out of his way to provoke me, and while I generally can ignore, calmly dole out a consequence, or turn it into a joke, if he hits me at just the right time (lack of sleep, stressed, attention turned elsewhere), he can rile me up, and it seems to be happening more.

A Number at A.C.T.
The Uniqueness of Being(s)
by Nirmala Nataraj on May 11, 2006
Churchill is one of the most lauded female playwrights in contemporary theatre. Indeed, her plays -- wry illustrations of the nexus between gender and class -- can be aptly described as feminist pieces. However, what sets "A Number" apart from Churchill's past works is not merely its idiosyncratic subject matter, but also the fact that it's completely devoid of female characters, and is essentially a play about the construction of masculine identity through the father-son relationship.
At the center of the play is a fellow named Salter (Broadway veteran Bill Smitrovich), the father of a young man who has been cloned into 20 supposedly exact copies. Salter meets separately with the original, Bernard, and two clones (all played by TV and film actor Josh Charles). The strained relationship between father and son(s) is exacerbated by the first two Bernards' discovery that there are "a number" of precise replicas of them out in the world. "You mean I'm not the original, I'm only a copy!" Bernard II, a clone, fumes miserably at a monosyllabic, pitifully aloof Salter.
The major misconception audiences will have before going into the theatre is that this is a play about genetic engineering or the ethical ramifications of human cloning, when actually, it is about the futility, guilt, and myriad misunderstandings which surround the father-son relationship. Salter, who is both distant yet painfully aware of his wrongdoing, initially assuages Bernard I and II (who have independently discovered the clones) with well-meaning fibs about the project, assuring each that he is the original. However, the truth is quickly revealed as both sons prod Salter further.
As Charles exits and re-enters with a different Bernard, we are struck by the diversity (and the ultimate sameness) of the three, which, of course, elicits the age-old question of "nature vs. nurture." Charles' Bernard II is disbelieving yet gentle, his portrayal quickly giving way to cold resignation. (In reference to the original Bernard, who has begun stalking him, Bernard II forlornly tells Salter, "We both hate you, but my hate is completely different from his.")
Charles' portrayal of the original Bernard, a smoldering, volatile character who alternates between salty amusement and manic fury, is far more calculating in his interrogation of Salter (who we learn decided to clone Bernard at the age of four, two years after his mother's untimely death), bombarding his father with acidic inquiries about his questionable parenting. The enmity between Salter and the original Bernard is countered in Salter's final meeting with Michael, one of the 19 clones who are meeting him for the first time. Michael is essentially a stranger to his father's undisclosed motivations and the triangulated discord between Salter and the two Bernards; therefore, his reaction to the whole situation is perhaps the only unique one in the play. "Actually, I find it quite delightful," he gushes sincerely to Salter. Of course, Michael isn't privy to the personal ramifications of Salter's decision, and at this point, irrevocable tragedy has already sunk in.
Fans of Harold Pinter will appreciate Churchill's maddeningly elliptical script (under the brilliant direction of Anna Shapiro), which looks at how much or how little information we can extract from language. The five scenes are brisk and esoteric, full of slight cross-sections of each character's history. The text is full of incomplete sentences, interrupted thoughts, and unrevealed information that lies somewhere on the peripheries of the action, like the 19 other Bernards who are "talking, loving, living, and fucking" somewhere out there in the world. Additionally, the emphasis on the technical procedure of genetic engineering, as well as the setting and time period, remain shrouded in mystery, as if Churchill is purposely creating a realm in which the audience is only partially cognizant of the back story.
David Korins' set is as towering and distant as the play is searing and personal. A disconcertingly conventional wood-paneled office sits high atop the stage, peppered tongue-in-cheek with wallpaper featuring identical ducks lined up in a number of rows. The box-like containment of the scene lends the play a nearly cinematic feel, as if we are watching the action through the once-removed medium of television, which further creates a duality between what we are seeing and what we are feeling. Light designer Russell H. Champa complements the disorientation with his flashes of darkness, which set in before the start of each new scene (with a new Bernard), rounded out by eerie ambient sounds that approximate the sci-fi anxiety of genetic engineering.
If the play is a jibe at the concept of unique identities, the uneasy relationship between Salter and the three Bernards also shatters the idea of unique relationships. But even at the end, Salter clings desperately to the concept of uniqueness. "Tell me something deep and personal about yourself," Salter exhorts Michael. Michael, however, cannot answer, for he is the type of person who finds comfort in the fact that humans share 33 percent of their DNA with lettuce -- he is aware that our similarities are often more interesting than our differences.
The comedic nuances, awkwardness, and apprehension of all the characters are conveyed beautifully by Smitrovich and Charles, whose roles are mitigated by the silent realization that uniqueness isn't the thing that keeps relationships intact, rather, it's simple understanding and acceptance, even of our limited performances as father and son. The play is not a redemptive one, but the final scene -- with its abrupt ending -- certainly offers redemption as a possibility.

Friday game report: Bucks at Wizards
PLAYER OF THE GAME: Monta Ellis had six turnovers but he made up for them with some determined drives to the basket, finishing with 22 points, five rebounds and five assists in 32 minutes. "Really his game so far this year has been his layup game," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "When he's making those layups, he shoots a good percentage then."
BIG NUMBER: The Wizards shot 22.2% from three-point range, sinking just 4 of 18 attempts. Point guard A.J. Price was 1 for 5 and Bradley Beal was 0 for 4.
TEAMS : Bucks (3-1) vs. Boston Celtics (2-3).
WHEN:7:30 p.m. Saturday.
WHERE: BMO Harris Bradley Center.
BROADCASTS:TV - FS Wisconsin. Radio - AM-620.
ABOUT THE CELTICS: Boston coach Doc Rivers made a change in his starting lineup, inserting rookie Jared Sullinger at power forward and bringing Brandon Bass off the bench. Sullinger, the former Ohio State star, is a strong rebounder and a savvy player willing to take charges. Celtics veteran Kevin Garnett said Sullinger reminded him of former Boston player Kendrick Perkins, a dose of high praise. Rajon Rondo finished with 14 points and 20 assists on Friday but the Celtics lost at home to Philadelphia, 106-100.
G Courtney Lee, 6-5, W. Kentucky
G Rajon Rondo, 6-1, Kentucky
F Paul Pierce, 6-7, Kansas
F Jared Sullinger, 6-9, Ohio State
C Kevin Garnett, 6-11, Farragut (Ill.)
Coach: Doc Rivers (ninth season, 377-268; 14th overall, 548-436).

C Samuel Dalembert, 6-11, Seton Hall
Coach: Scott Skiles (fifth season, 149-167; 13th overall, 430-418)
Injury report: Luc Richard Mbah a Moute (right patella surgery) is out.
The Celtics lead, 97-92. Milwaukee halted a six-game skid against Boston with a 99-88 victory at TD Garden on Nov. 2.
46.5 Shooting percentage for the Bucks in the opener against Boston.
18 Points scored by Harris against the Celtics in the opener.
4 Times the Bucks and Celtics will meet before Christmas.
Monday: 6 p.m. at the Wells Fargo Center. Bucks vs. Philadelphia 76ers. TV - FS Wisconsin. Radio - AM-620.
Wednesday: 7 p.m. at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. Bucks vs. Indiana Pacers. TV - FS Wisconsin. Radio - AM-620 .
GOODEN INACTIVE: Veteran forward Drew Gooden was inactive for Friday's game as Skiles chose to go with his young group of forwards.
Gooden has gone from being overworked as the team's starting center last season to not working at all. He was active but did not play in the first three games. And was on a team's inactive list for the first time in his 11 years in the NBA.
"If this is the best thing for the team, I'll do it," Gooden said after the team's morning shoot-around.
Gooden played in 56 games last season, starting 46 after center Andrew Bogut went down with a fractured left ankle. Gooden played out of position at center and averaged 13.7 points and 6.5 rebounds.
Skiles said he did not like the inactive rule and having to tell a healthy player he could not suit up for a game.
"I just feel throughout exhibition a couple of other guys have played better," Skiles said. "Those aren't easy decisions. It's just the way we've decided to go."

D-Backs Sweep the Pirates in Pittsburgh; Up Next: The Washington Nationals in D.C.
Even when things are going well for the Arizona Diamondbacks, somebody or something takes a big ol' dump in their Cheerios.
For example, during Wednesday night's victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates, star outfielder Justin Upton strained his right oblique while attempting to swipe second base in the ninth. (Upton has since been placed on the disabled list.) Then on Thursday afternoon, Pirate-basher Ryan Roberts, who has been on a tear of late, boarded a plane back to Phoenix to be with his wife while she gave birth to the couple's first child. (Awesome for the family and humankind, but not so great for an already-weak offense.)
As a result, the D-Backs sent a pieces-part lineup to the plate that included Triple-A-Reno-recalled outfielder Trent Oeltjen against Pittsburgh starter Kevin Hart, who worked so deliberately that you could complete War and Peace between his pitches. But despite this and Mark Reynolds' undisclosed injury that forced the slugger to leave the game after the eighth, Arizona made it work during a twenty-one hit, 11-6 comeback win at Pittsburgh's PNC Park.
Down 6-5 heading into the eighth thanks to an own-worst-enemy effort by Max Scherzer (5.1 innings pitched, seven hits, five earned runs, four walks, and a wild pitch), Oeltjen stepped to the plate. The Australian and nine-year career minor leaguer, who had stroked a base hit in his first at-bat and also stole two bags, hit a high drive on a Jesse Chavez pitch that barely cleared the right-field fence for his first career homerun that tied the score at six.

In the top of the 12th, player of the game Alex Romero stroked a two-run double - his fourth hit of the night - that scored Augie Ojeda and Chris Snyder to break the six-all deadlock. Dan Haren (yes, that Dan Haren) added a sac fly RBI off of Steven Jackson (2-2) and Miguel Montero's single plated two more to complete the five-run, game-sealing inning. Leo Rosales pitched a perfect 12th to nail down the D-Backs' fifth-consecutive win and made the Pirates' 17th consecutive losing season (a record for any North American professional sports team) more of a reality.
Up next is a three-game tilt in the nation's capital against the Washington Nationals. The nation's worst club hasn't been playing like one of late, winning a season-best fifth- straight game yesterday with a dramatic, come-from-behind victory against the Florida Marlins. For tonight's 4:05 p.m. matchup, the lowly Nationals (37-72), who took two out of three from the D-Backs at Chase Field in early May, will send 23-year-old Collin Balester (1-1, 3.68 ERA) to the hill while Arizona is scheduled to start tough-luck loser Jon Garland (6-10, 4.26 ERA).

I think this is being taken out of context. I'M NOT DEFENDING IT..BUT..
Golden Boy probably promised K9 a fight with Canelo to get him to sign in the first place. So within the contract, to make sure Golden Boy keeps its promise, there is probably a list of fighters that K9 is not allowed to fight that would give Golden Boy the opportunity to rescind their promise to him about a shot at Canelo.

K9 ain't no spring chicken anymore. He's 39 and he's paid his dues already. There's nothing wrong with him trying to cash out before he has to hang up his gloves. Golden Boy should be building Lara up too so a future fight with Canelo would be huge. I wanna see Lara on the Sept 15th undercard. That's how you build a fighter, the same way they've built up Canelo.

I don't understand what kind of promoting golden boy does for Lara. They're screwing him at every turn. He should go to top rank.

That just shows you what kinda human being K9 is, he's well aware of the brutal thrashing of Lara that would take place and the subsequent early retirement the Cuban would be faced with he'd probably have to re-defect back to Cuba afterwards

I don't blame k9. Like mentioned before, he tryna pay his bills at this point and he's grinded it out his whole career. Almost 40 and ready to hang it up, I don't think an ass whooping at the hands of Lara should be in anyone's plans at that point.

Gus CannonView in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
A remarkable musician (he could play five-string banjo and jug simultaneously), Gus Cannon bridged the gap between early blues and the minstrel and folk styles that preceded it. His band of the '20s and '30s, Cannon's Jug Stompers, represents the apogee of the jug band style. Songs they recorded, notably the raggy "Walk Right In," were staples of the folk repertoire decades later, and Cannon himself continued to record and perform into the 1970s. Self-taught on an instrument made from a frying pan and a raccoon skin, he learned early repertoire in the 1890s from older musicians, notably Mississippian Alec Lee. The early 1900s found him playing around Memphis with songster Jim Jackson and forming a partnership with Noah Lewis, whose harmonica wizardry would be basic to the Jug Stompers' sound. In 1914, Cannon began work with a succession of medicine shows that would continue into the 1940s, and where he further developed his style and repertoire. His recording career began with Paramount sessions in 1927. He continued to record into the '30s as a soloist and with his incredible trio, which included Noah Lewis along with guitarists Hosea Woods or Ashley Thompson. (Side projects included duets with Blind Blake and the first ever recordings of slide banjo.) Often obliged to find employment in other fields than music, Cannon continued to play anyway, mostly around Memphis. He resumed his stalled recording efforts in 1956 with sessions for Folkways. Subsequent sessions paired him with other Memphis survivors like Furry Lewis. Advancing age curtailed his activities in the '70s, but he still played the occasional cameo, sometimes from a wheelchair, until shortly before his death. ~ Steve James

Peter King Won't Attend Republican Dinner Headlined By Ted Cruz
"I don't think we should be acknowledging people who are voting against us in our hour of need," King said. The dinner will raise money for the state Republican Party.
WASHINGTON — New York Republican Peter King is boycotting a state party dinner tomorrow night featuring Sen. Ted Cruz over the Texas conservative's efforts to defeat a Hurricane Sandy bill earlier this year.
"I don't think we should be acknowledging people who are voting against us in our hour of need," King told BuzzFeed of his decision to not attend the dinner.
King has loudly criticized Republicans like Cruz who come to New York to raise money but voted against the Hurricane Sandy bill, and has urged other Republicans to freeze out opponents to the relief bill.
"Once I found it was him," King explained, "I decided not to go. I don't know if I would have gone or not because of scheduling things, but that made it easy once I found out it was Ted Cruz."
The New York Republican State Committee dinner invitation prominently notes that Cruz is "appearing at this event only as a featured guest. Senator Ted Cruz is not asking for funds or donations." The event will raise money for the state party committee and tickets are being sold for $1,000–$10,000.
"I said I would not have invited him," King said. "[Republican State Chairman] Ed Cox says it serves a purpose, I just disagree."
Rep. Michael Grimm, a Staten Island Republican whose district was hit hard by Hurricane Sandy, told the New York Daily News he would also not be attending the dinner. But Grimm blasted Democrats who early tried to make an issue out of him attending the event.
"To use an event as tragic as Sandy to try and score a few cheap political points is beyond reprehensible, and I expect more from my NYC colleagues, who quite frankly should know better," Grimm said.
Cox defended Cruz's appearance at the dinner, arguing the senator supported aid for Sandy victims but that Senate Democrats had filled the bill with "pork," and that's why he had voted against it.
"Ted Cruz made it absolutely clear he was all for Sandy aid but he was against the pork which was stuffed in there by the Democrats, and that's what he was voting against," Cox said. "This is very much going to be about growth and opportunity, showing the diversity that is the Republican Party here in New York State."
UPDATE: A high ranking New York Republican complained to BuzzFeed that King's criticism of the dinner was "grandstanding."
"What Pete King is doing is grandstanding for the media. To call what Pete King is doing is a boycott sort of misses the point," the Republican said. "Pete King does nothing to help other Republicans in New York State other than Pete King. He hasn't been to a state dinner in anyone's recent memory."
- Monday night's presidential debate may be the last hope for environmental activists who want climate in the national conversation.
- Miami Marlins star pitcher José Fernández has died in a boating accident. He was 24.
- US officials have determined al-Qaeda likely influenced suspected New York City bomber Ahmad Khan Rahami.

• There's a legitimate reason many Republican lawmakers in Washington oppose the potential nomination of Susan Rice as secretary of state. There are too many unanswered questions about her statements following the attack on the U. S. embassy in Benghazi, Libya. Many in the GOP say they'd be more comfortable with Sen. John Kerry, who ran unsuccessfully for president in 2004. Kerry has long years of experience and significant expertise in foreign affairs. Unless President Obama simply enjoys picking fights, he'd do well to go with Kerry.

Republican Friendships Being Lost Over Trump?
OH WELL- Some of Us Didn't Sell Out
OH WELL- Some of Us Didn't Sell Out
Jay Caruso @ RedState
I can't say I have lost any close friends due to my lack of support for Donald Trump. Many of my friends agree with me about his candidacy. There have been professional relationships that have been frayed and arguments with some friends over Trump but nothing serious.
There are however, deep divisions among some people, particularly with organizations, elected officials, party people and others who have jumped aboard the Trump Train after years of telling others he was an unacceptable member of the Republican Party...

'Never Trump' Republicans Standing Firm
'Never Trump' because of their committed opposition to Donald Trump.
These Republicans, ranging from lawmakers, to intellectuals, to party insiders and strategists, remains firmly opposed to Trump, even as the GOP nominee has become more competitive with Hillary Clinton.
That opposition continues despite the fresh attention on the scandals hovering over the Democratic nominee's presidential candidacy, as well as fresh news about Clinton being diagnosed with pneumonia.
The illness forced Clinton off the campaign trail for at least a
few days this week.
For 'Never Trump' Republicans, opposition to their party's nominee has never been tied to his viability in the polls or their opinion of Clinton...

Trump's Enablers Will Be Responsible

for His Epic Defeat in November
Michael Van Der Galien @PJ Media:
Let's face it- Trump is a loose cannon. He's a narcissistic megalomaniac who just can't keep his mouth closed. He's probably the worst candidate the Republicans have ever put forth. And that's saying something; I haven't forgotten about Bob Dole...

Republicans Rush to Save Candidates
from Trump Wipeout
from Trump Wipeout
'Poor polling and Trump's lack of a ground game is triggering
growing alarm about down-ticket fallout — even in red states'
Republicans are scrambling to protect a growing number of down-ballot candidates — including several in conservative bastions — who they fear could be swamped by a Donald Trump wipeout in November.
Nearly a dozen GOP strategists said in interviews this week that they are taking steps to buttress Republicans in strongholds where private polling shows Trump — his recent uptick in public surveys notwithstanding — is threatening to drag down candidates running beneath him...

Feds Were Investigating Trump for Mob-Related Money Laundering- Until Rudolph Giuliani
Made the Case Disappear
Made the Case Disappear
Let's start with the fact that Donald Trump's top surrogate, Rudy Giuliani, is on the payroll. In January, he joined a law firm, Greenberg Traurig, that represents Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner.
Last year, the firm handled Trump's suit against the Florida city of Doral so his golf course could override noise regulations that barred him from bulldozing before sunrise. More recently, it handled Kushner's $340-million acquisition of the Watchtower properties in downtown Brooklyn.
When Trump paid a $250,000 fine in 2000 for secretly funding a million-dollar lobbying campaign against an Indian casino in upstate New York, he was represented by Greenberg.
Giuliani brought Marc Mukasey, the stepson of ex-U.S. Attorney General and lifelong Giuliani friend Michael Mukasey, with him...

Taiwan News, Staff Writer
Tsai led from the outset in polling, earning a victory similar to her 2010 campaign when she grabbed over 90% of the votes to defeat former Taipei County Magistrate Yu Ching. Sunday's vote came after a low-key contest in which both candidates avoided personal criticisms and sought to minimize friction in party ranks in order to help ensure momentum for the critical year-end elections.
Tsai said Saturday that the election for party officials and representatives was a chance to help restore faith in the party among the people of Taiwan. She noted that the balloting represents new hope for the party of democracy in Taiwan and pledged she would work to keep the DPP a tolerant political party and a force for political action.
Tsaiâs second stint as head of the DPP comes at a critical point for the party. The 318 Sunflowers student movement stole much of the partyâs thunder for nearly two months in March and April, galvanizing the political scene in Taiwan by occupying the Legislative Yuan and throwing a wrench in the works of the KMTâs attempt to ramrod the Cross-Strait Services Trade Agreement (CSSTA) through the assembly. CSSTA, together with the Free Economic Pilot Zone Law and the Public Officials Election Law, are three issues that will test Tsaiâs leadership ability and political and economic savvy during the next couple of years.
Tsai will also have to deal with resistance from members of the party who are skeptical of her motives in running for chairman, seeing it as little more than a stepping stone to another go at the presidency in 2016.
Key voices in the party have called for the party leadership to put forward specific policies as soon as possible for handling the challenges that Taiwan faces, lest the party become even more marginalized than it is at the moment. Former legislator Lin Cho-shui says that Tsai must abandon her "oppose everything" approach to issues like cross-strait relations, while Lai I-chung, Deputy Executive Director of the Taiwan Thinktank, points out that the DPP needs to engage in dialogues with society and the popular opposition in order to regain a position of leadership in Taiwanâs political scene.
Perhaps most critical will be laying out the future direction of the party in dealing with China. The KMT has clearly shown that it will not accept anything that smacks of concepts like the âtwo-nationâ theory or the âone country on each sideâ theory, but as Lin Cho-shui points out. Tsai served as the chair of the Mainland Affairs Council in the past, and as an expert in cross-strait issues she should be able to deal with the problem.
In the meantime, Tsai will probably find herself very busy working to rebuild trust and confidence in the party in the hearts of voters after the experience of the Sunflower movement. The DPP will also need to handle the possibility of losing supporters to new movements such as the Taiwan March organization formed by the two leaders of the 318 movement.

It is not exact, Pixie. Note the M, also the size of the bowls in the P and R. Also, the center bar in the E looks centered in the sample. Oh, and the K.
There are several that have the same feel that I found, but had similar problems.
It might be a font that hasn't made it into the digitized age, or a font made up by the sign company or an agency.
That was one reason I asked the age of the sign. A creation date might help one of the gurus find something.
I just noticed that the center bar of the E is lower in the word "Market" than it is in "Center". That might suggest a custom-made job. It could be a made up face borrowed from the faces of that era. I'll do a further search using the date as a guide.
No luck. I suppose you could simply call it an "Art Deco" style.
Try here?
That's a really nice find Lisa. Don't know how you stumbled upon it - but most likely the closest Blake will come to keeping true to the font. Good job!

On Tap Today: The election's upon us
Will Obama be re-elected for a second presidential term? Will Mitt Romney and his Wisconsin-based VP candidate Paul Ryan take over the White House? One thing is for certain - this election thing is a pretty big deal, particularly in a so-called battleground state like Wisconsin. So unique entertainment options appear to be a bit spare tonight as we wait to see how this election will pan out.
That said, the Riverwest Public House Cooperative at 815 E. Locust St. has found a way to celebrate the election and bring some much needed fun to the evening. It's been preparing for tonight with a series of "Hot Blind Debates" discussions this fall in addition to screening the actual presidential debates. Tonight, election coverage will be playing on two big screen TVs, with raffle prizes for guessing the popular vote in states before they're called, plus political jokes and "I Voted" drink specials. Oh, and according to the site, depending on how things go, cat videos might be shared as well. »Read Full Blog Post

Milwaukee playwright brings 'Great Expectations' into focus
Chicago — Charles Dickens is the most theatrical of the great novelists, but unless one adapts a novella like "A Christmas Carol" — or has the luxury of eight-plus hours, as in the acclaimed adaptation of "Nicholas Nickleby" — the length of his novels makes them difficult to stage.
I was therefore intrigued to see how Milwaukee's Gale Childs Daly had tackled the challenge of adapting "Great Expectations," which is not only one of Dickens' best novels, but also among the shortest. It's being staged by Chicago's Strawdog Theatre Company, a 70-seat storefront theater with a history of rethinking classic texts. »Read Full Article

WTMJ reporter ordered to appear for Alabama murder trial
A Milwaukee County judge on Tuesday ordered a local TV reporter to attend a murder trial next month in Alabama, where prosecutors say the reporter is a material witness.
Cody Holyoke, of WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) represented himself at a brief hearing before Circuit Judge David Borowski. Borowski said such requests from out-of-state courts are rare, and so he would presume it was "rather serious" case and request. He and Holyoke agreed that whether Holyoke may be able to invoke Alabama's reporter's shield law is an issue for the courts there. »Read Full Blog Post(8)

Fred Stonehouse returns to stomping grounds
No one talks about art the way Fred Stonehouse talks about art. Like some of his paintings, there is an element of the circus sideshow in the way presents his ideas, surreal entertainments to be relished.
His paintings are filled with visual booty. From the bleeding hosts and weeping Madonnas of his Catholic upbringing to the antique sideshow banners of state fairs, from the Day of the Dead artworks he collects and covets to the bizarre hybrid beings of beloved folk tales, Stonehouse cribs liberally from the history of art, popular culture, a rich array of visual sources and his own life experiences. »Read Full Blog Post

Chaotic_Dream 3 years ago#1
1) I presume that CNJ/WHM = full Mind, all the way, while on THM/BLM ones goes all Intelligence, all the time. Is this correct? Or is it advisable to put points into... Piety? Vitality? As one goes on?
2) As far as I understand, Scholar builds more-or-less like WHM, and Summoner more-or-less like BLM. Do they have separate attribute allocations? (Since they're different jobs)--or do they share your "Arcanist" set?
Thanks in advance~
All I should have said, I have not said. All I should have done, I have not done.
LukeStrife5 3 years ago#2
1. Yes but it's up to you. I put all mine into Dex for my Archer but others will say other builds are better or worse.
2. Attributes are only for that class. So don't worry about using it on stats for others.
Snickers085 3 years ago#3
Two answer #2 they share your Arc allocation. Therefore if you want to go pure Scholar put all your points into mind.. or pure smn put them all into intelligence.

Well, much obliged for the answers, though...
There seems to be come conflicting information for the second one. :z

So, I'm up to... *checks* 21, apparently (I so slooooow), and have yet to actually spend any of the attribute bonus points. I should probably get around to doing that. I just want to ask/clear up a few things beforehand!
to be clear this is for WHM only, and im not posting the full thing cause this is like the 8th time ive posted this
MND WOULD be useful, it ups healing ...right? to bad the white mages 'heal to max hp' makes it useless, and swapping it for int? also useless, anything 35+ your gonna just spam support stuff no more pretending to be DPS
then..Piety..right? no. First, in any real fight, after you get past the maybe 40-80 extra MP piety gives you, its useless cause MP regen is level based not max MP based.
real answer? its a split up between VIT and....STR
VIT ups max HP, so you would die less, and altho you might not believe me, it DOES NOT increase defence, but you can just change equips to test that, what ups defence? STR. so for a white mage, you would be at a tossup between VIT or STR. lol right? and ironically, the better of the two options..is STR lolol, VIT max boost max HP, and this also defend from magic, but mages already have uber magic defence, they bane is being hit by physical attacks, and because the output of defence to max HP is greater on the defence side, STR should be pumped into white mages....lolol
final notes, technically altho there is nothing 'content' wise for what im gonna say, on str/vit, they may in the future be bosses with X damage attacks that completly ignore all forms of defence and buffs. in that case VIT would be the better option, however i still believe STR would be better, I don't think that every single boss would start having X damage attacks that deal far more then your default+equips max HP, otherwise it would render the entire defence and magic defence stats useless for a major chunk of the game if they started doing that. and i believe it would only be situational. this is ofcourse just my opinion, but it should be obvious MND INT and PIETY for WHM is pretty useless
final note, really this time, before anyone says so, the MP heal X% ethers all say 'up to X number' meaning its really healing a number, not a %, the only reason % is there is so if you have tons of cash and are very far, you can use super high tier pots on new unleveled classes to get more out of it, in actual combat, using whatever current either is locally purchasable, you will defiantly hit the X before the % (due to mages always having high mana pools, its the opposite for every other class for the most part however, so its just saying it heals % for physical and X for magical classes really)
Don't forget that conj have cleric stance which swaps int and mnd
So conj could go full mnd and still have strong offensive spells

The LPT return filed in 2013 covers the years 2013 – 2016, as a result only a payment of LPT is required for 2014 and the value of the property does not need to be reconsidered. A full year LPT applies for 2014 (only a half year charge applied for 2013).

Mortgage Arrears Information and Free Professional Advice Service
The free service is available to homeowners who are being offered long term resolution arrangements by their bank to their mortgage difficulties. The advice will be provided by accountants who have registered on the panel wishing to provide the service.
If the homeowner wishes to avail of the service, he or she can pick an accountant of their choice from the panel and the bank will pay a set fee of €250 to the accountant for the advice provided.
The scheme applies to a person's principal private residence only. The accountant will explain the terms included in the proposed arrangement and will advise on the financial implications of the proposed arrangement. The final decision on whether to accept the proposed arrangement is the borrower's.
When announcing the scheme the Minister said "Each family in mortgage arrears faces unique difficulties and we must have a range of solutions which can be adapted to resolve each family's difficulties."
The Minister continued by saying "People experiencing difficulties with their mortgage need to contact their lender."
Welcoming this scheme, Hugh Byrne of Byrne Casey & Associates said "this measure provides a wonderful opportunity for distressed homeowners. We see how stressed homeowners who have fallen behind on their mortgage payments are. There is a risk that they will agree to an arrangement that is not appropriate for them. A consultation with an accountant who will be able to explain, in plain English, what is being proposed and the implications of accepting the proposal, will provide invaluable assistance to such families".
In conjunction with the announcement of the free service, a website keepingyourhome.ie and a Mortgage Arrears Information Helpline (0761 07 4050) were launched. The website offers general mortgage arrears information and advice for distressed mortgage holders. The helpline provides general mortgage arrears information and guidance to mortgage holders, in particular to borrowers who are in arrears or pre-arrears on their residential property.
Byrne Casey & Associates is one of the firms of accountants participating on the panel.
Some of the information contained above is taken from the Citizens Information Board press release announcing the service.
