I might just have to try that on Photoshop.
Big super nerd. Hmmmmm.......................................
What's the deal with the mouse droid?
I think it's some sick obsession. He's hooked on it!
c'mon, jonna, post a pic of yourself already! we was all in love with the little teaser you gave us with your old avatar--you're quite the lovely young la--
wait a second--jonna's a he?!?
[font=courier]"looks like i could use some fabric softener"[/font]
You are just going to have to wait till I go home. Only a few minutes left of suppressing the urge to Kill everyone!
Jonna is such a gender neutral name anyway...sort of like Kris, Pat, the boy named sue, Jo...
I still don't believe he's a man, man...
Everyone play nicely. I was glad to see pics of many of the people I've spent many months (or longer) talking to in these threads.
But insult of all insults? What is with The Mouse Droid?
You mean you don't actually know, after how many times I've been trying to tell you to just TRY sniffing the Mouse Droid?
There are 129 posts about it in the Power of the Jedi section!
Darth Mouse even has his own band put together in this forum in the SickNTwisted Action Figure Theater Thread! (Mousy and the Sniffers for those of you who weren't notified of their first album release "Opened Up Fresh.")
You know, I'm totally willing to bet that so many of you are actually going back to your R4M9 figures and finding that little mouse and giving it a try and just not telling anybody about it now....
I know what I started! The Cult of the Mouse!
We have a Sniffers Anonymous group that meets in the POTJ section and Hasbro has actually been made officially aware of our prescense in their customer base.
LOL - we had one poor fella get caught by his wife with a mouse shoved up each nostril! (the club offers tips as to how to make a harness so you don't have to use your hands)
But in all honesty, this whole thing got started because once, perhaps in our old forums format, I saw somebody post a question asking who sniffs their new action figures?
The responses were funny as heck and so many people related to it! I can't take credit for being "the first prophet that started it all"
But I related: I mean remember how dittos smelled before copiers were standard in schools? How about new books? They have that brand new smell, right? New cars?
Well action figures use all the senses to fully appreciate them as well. You TOUCH them to study and utilize the articulation. You LISTEN to them, if they beep, click, spring, or snap. You LOOK at them when you bring them close to your eyes to examine the sculptor's and painter's details. And since hopefully all your noses are close to your eyes, you undoubtedly will at some point SMELL them!
We've identified that the only scent left to use when experiencing new action figures is TASTE. And we're waiting for results from those who eat their action figures, however most have died because they've had the "No choking hazzard Sticker" variations when they've tried this, and Hasbro strongly discouraged people from eating their action figures when I had the chance to question the panel on the matter live at the Celebration forum.
**Snicker, snicker, snicker. Lots of laughter from everyone on that, AND when I asked them about the Reek's anatomy **
Who says you shouldn't have a little fun? We're grown adults (or at least look like them) collecting toys for kids ages 4 and up. I for one haven't changed one bit since I was 4 (save for my height) - and that's proof that sniffing your figures will not stunt your growth!
Last but not least: why the Mouse Droid? Sniff it and you will find out!
Hasbro specifically answered they are not toxic and have been safety-tested

Chemical bonding, any of the interactions that account for the association of atoms into molecules, ions, crystals, and other stable species that make up the familiar substances of the everyday world. When atoms approach one another, their nuclei and electrons interact and tend to distribute themselves in space in such a way that the total energy is lower than it would be in any alternative arrangement. If the total energy of a group of atoms is lower than the sum of the energies of the component atoms, they then bond together and the energy lowering is the bonding energy.

For a few years now, Maurizio Cattelan (who just exhibited a retrospective at the Guggenheim that marked his "retirement" from the art world) and world-class photographer Pierpaolo Ferrari have been putting out a biannual magazine called Toilet Paper. In short, it's a collection of the most deviant, funny, absurd, and stimulating images to grace the pages of any publication, ever. A while back we reached out to them, asking whether they would be interested in doing a shoot for VICE. They said yes, we peed our pants, and a few months later they sent back seven images, one of which depicts a very realistic fake penis and graces the cover of this issue. The remaining six are a mix of photos exclusive to VICE and a couple that serve as sneak previews of what the world can expect to see in the next issue of Toilet Paper. Bel lavoro, ragazzi.

Why not just de-solder the ribbon cable and solder your own wires on? Might be easier.

Bram:The problem of draws in chess (even at low levels) are a source of frustration. Personally, I like to know the outcome of a game when it's over; a draw feels like a waste of time.
That's one of the many reasons I like Go. Draws are rare in any circumstance, and with a non-integer komi, draws are nearly impossible. (Of course, komi's intended purpose is not to resolve draws; its purpose is to offset the advantage of the first move. Chess, to my knowledge, has no comparable system.)

SIGNS OF DISCONTENT: Anti-gentrification guerrillas have spread their message on the walls of Rising Sun and on the streets of Providence.
"Olneyville needs a library, not luxury lofts," exclaimed one poster. Depicting stately Atlantic Mills, another used English and Spanish to demand that "speculative developers" get out of the area, and pronto. A third showed Baltimore-based developer Bill Struever astride a train of "Western manifest destiny" — symbolizing the mammoth $333 million American Locomotive project planned on 22.5 acres in the nearby Valley neighborhood — advancing toward a lucrative and hegemonic future.
Although the agit-prop was quickly taken down, Olneyville's anti-gentrification guerrillas soon unleashed a far more potent weapon: two videotapes, posted on the Internet siteswww.loadrecords.com andwww.rifuture.org, in which Karen Shugrue, the leasing agent for Rising Sun, told a seeming prospective pair of renters that an "us and them" atmosphere prevailed between the "very insulated" residents at the refurbished mill and inhabitants of the supposedly dangerous surrounding "ghetto." Although Shugrue, employed at the time by Providence-based Armory Revival Company, exaggerated Armory Revival's purchases in the area, she also recited a straightforward roadmap for gentrification: "You know, we've bought out pretty much everything that we can buy — so in two years, five years, we'llpretty much have made this a really cool neighborhood to live in."
Many of those horrified by these remarks nonetheless thought Shugrue did Providence a big favor by ripping away the lid of development-happy talk to reveal the true intentions of Struever Brothers and Armory Revival, the team responsible for Rising Sun. And although Bill Struever and Armory Revival condemned Shugrue's words, calling them unrepresentative of their efforts, the 80-plus mostly anonymous comments posted in responseonwww.rifuture.org revealed a very high degree of tension and vitriol around the issue of West Side development.
Supporters of the duo that made the videotapes called them heroes, while critics, accusing them of a sneak attack, said they should be prosecuted. Self-described Rising Sun residents derided the Olneyville artists — one of the more polite comments is that the artists are conservatives, because they oppose change and embrace Providence's low-rent past. Boosters responded, touting the neighborhood, a bastion of the city's creative underground, as a scrappy working class enclave that functions more effectively than downtown Providence (and without vacant storefronts no less). And while gentrification is an old story, critics note the millions in tax subsidies being used and sought in contending that Struever Brothers and Armory Revival's efforts to incorporate affordable housing are more fig leaf than substance.
Considering surging development on Providence's West Side, this kind of conflict was probably inevitable. The question now becomes whether it sparks a real search for solutions or merely signals continued clashes.

Symposium to focus on beauty and the arts, May 14
Posted May 7, 2004; 04:25 p.m.
Is it necessary for works of art to be beautiful? Is it even acceptable? Artist Frank Stella, composer Milton Babbitt and poet C.K. Williams will address these and other questions at a symposium on "Beauty in Art, Music, Literature and Philosophy" at 3 p.m. Friday, May 14, in Richardson Auditorium, Alexander Hall.
Philosopher Alexander Nehamas, the Edmund N. Carpenter II Professor in the Humanities, will introduce the issues and moderate the discussion.
Although it often has been taken for granted that art is inseparable from beauty, the very idea of beauty came under heavy attack during the 20th century. Having proved impossible to define philosophically, beauty also became the target of political and cultural criticism. Should artists, for example, produce attractive works when reality is plagued by devastating wars and social injustice? Doesn't beauty, which seems to be primarily appreciated through the senses, inhibit serious thought and reduce the arts to mere entertainment?
Much of the great literature, painting and music of the 20th century has seemed unattractive and obscure to many. Artists, scholars and critics recently have called for a return to works of art designed to be beautiful and pleasing. The symposium participants, who have contributed to this ongoing debate through their works and their critical views, will address the issues that surround the nature of beauty and its importance -- if any -- to the arts.
The event, which is free and open to the public, is sponsored by the Council of the Humanities . To reserve a seat, call the Richardson Auditorium box office at (609) 258-5000. It also will be Webcast live.

The most important thing that you can do is to be informed and prepared. Disaster prevention includes both being prepared as well as reducing damages (mitigation).
The four important steps to be sure you and your department are ready for any emergency situation are: be informed about the different types of emergencies that can happen in your area and their appropriate responses, make a family/workplace communications plan, build an emergency kit, and get involved in community/college preparedness.
Emergencies, accidents, injuries and other unexpected events can occur at any time and in any place. Being prepared both mentally and physically for the unexpected is the first and best defense to minimize an incident. Each of us must take a pro-active approach to providing a safe environment and although we cannot cover all situations, the procedures outlined here can help prepare you should an emergency arise.

TUPELO – City officials are tweaking two road name changes in the annexed area of Tupelo.
On Tuesday, the Tupelo City Council approved a second round of name changes for the roads previously known as Lee County Road 37, which will become Kenny Vaughn Road, and County Road 1740, which will become Heardtown Road.
Generally, roads in the unincorporated areas of Lee County are numbered, and city streets are named. When the 16-square-mile annexation was final this fall, the city began a process with E-911 and the U.S. Post Office to identify roads that needed names.
County Road 1740 was initially changed to Red Barn Road because of concerns about confusion with Herdtown Lane, which comes off the road to the north, said City Planner Pat Falkner. On Tuesday, the council approved the historic name advocated by residents – Heardtown Road – after reassurance from 911 officials that confusion was unlikely because the address ranges are different.
The road that used to be County Road 37 was originally renamed Vaughn Road. During a review of the proposed names by the U.S. Post Office, officials realized a Vaughn Road in eastern Pontotoc County could cause confusion for emergency responders, Falkner told the Tupelo City Council in proposing the change to Kenny Vaughn Road.
After the review with the U.S. Post Office is complete, notification will go out to those with new addresses.

I WENT dinnerless that day at Wentworth—a thing that even in deepest grief one is seldom willing to do—dinnerless, unless the cud of sour and bitter thoughts which I chewed might pass for the festive meal that forms the nucleus of day's dearest interests in most people's lives. Nor did I appear at all till the evening was well on towards ten o'clock. If I had listened to the voice of nature, I should not have appeared at all, but should have retired straightway to bed, and paid the consideration that was due to it, to my most painful occiput. But then we were to leave Wentworth next day, and I could not afford to lose my last chance of reconciliation with Dick.page: 52
At all risks, at the risk of my head splitting in two, I must go down to keep a watch upon the wily Dorothea's movements. So I rose, and bathed my cheeks with fresh water, whereby they became and remained as red as the new pulpit cushions in Lestrange Church; I twisted up my hair, and crowned it with a bush of ivy, put on a white frock, girded myself with a rosy sash, and went down.
I stole into the bilious drawing‐room, in a mouse‐like manner, in the wake of a brace of giant footmen, bearing tea, nor did any one perceive my modest entry. Three‐fourths of the party were, I found, tightly packed round a table, employed in one of the senselessest modes of wasting time, that man (ingenious in frittering away his little day) has ever invented—a round game.
Every one was speaking at the utmost pitch of their voices, and laughing with all the force of their lungs. Some were squabbling over counters, some were making oeiliades behind clubs and spades and diamonds, some were facetiously trying to page: 53 cheat, and others were getting cross with them for so trying.
Every man spoke, and no man listened. Surely, surely, ombre and quadrille and brag must have been delectabler games than their posterity, commerce and chow‐chow, or they never could have seduced the Lady Betty Modishes, Lady Bridgets, and Lady Annes, into keeping such rakish hours, and indulging such naughty passions for their sakes, as we are led by the "Spectator" to suppose they did.
"Sympathy, or antipathy?" says Sir Hugh, in his stentor's voice, interrogatively, to the sharp young lady beside him.
"Oh, antipathy!" she answers venomously, "I always say antipathy; it pays much the best, I find."
"I like sympathy best; don't you?" sighs Miss Seymour, to a very Anglican young divine, who is beaming over his barnacles, pastorally at her, and her lean collar bones.
"Six upon sympathy!"
"Six upon antipathy!"page: 54
"Six upon sympathy!"
"You owe me thirty‐six."
"How do you make that out?"
"Have 'rouge et noir,' Sir Hugh!"
"Do! it's such fun."
"No, no, have blind hookey!"
"No, pips!"
"Take my advice, Lancaster, don't have pips! dealer always loses."
Such, and many similar ejaculations, uttered simultaneously, in keys, varying from forte to fortissimo, assail my mazed ears. Dick is not among them, Dolly is; Miss Lestrange is off guard; she is a little out of her reckoning, and is enjoying a false security, under the impression that I am tossing in anguish on a bed of pain up‐stairs, out of the way of handsome paupers.
She is no longer the shrewd, worldly‐wise woman of two hours ago, whose sentiments might have been those of a French Marquise of fifty, temp. Louis Quinze, could hardly have belonged to any one younger or less world‐polluted. She is transformed into the innocentest, child‐ childishest page: 55 ishest Marguerite; one could well fancy her picking the daisy petals to pieces, to find out whether her lover loved her un peu, passionément, or point de tout.
The guiltless author of this metamorphosis was a very young cotton lord, with a fleshy nose, and a retreating chin, who was willing enough to be Faust; willing, though not eager, because no young gentleman that is a real young gentleman, ever is eager about anything now‐a‐days.
Dolly's whole infantine soul was immersed in her miniature speculations; her soft cheeks were flushing shyly, and the full pink lips, and the velvet eyes, were saying, with a triumph of simplicity, "I should like always to be your partner, you bring me such good luck." The old game! the old game! it wearies me! But where is Richard? Is he dead, or gone to bed? My eyes roam over the yellow sea, but fail to descry him; then I bethink me of the folding‐doors, and the adjoining saloon.
Is that—can it be the top of a human head appearing above the back of an arm‐ page: 56 chair, in the dim distance? It is worth investigating. I investigate. The head is Dick's. Dick lying back, holding a book topsy turvy in his hand, and looking as bored and as sulky as any one of Her Majesty's servants need look.
"I came to look for you—Dick!" I say in a small meek voice, diffidently.
"Indeed! Very good of you, I'm sure!" rising ceremoniously, and trying very hard, but vainly, to be ironical. One must either be, or appear to be, in a good temper, to be successfully ironical.
"I thought I'd come and try to make friends," say I conciliatorily.
"Have you asked Sir Hugh's leave?" says he, acrimoniously.
"What do you mean?"
"What I say."
We stand and glare irefully at one another. I cool first. "Oh dear, oh dear! how soon Dolly has turned you against me, poor me!" I cry plaintively.
"You never were more mistaken in your life; on the contrary, Dol—, your sister, I mean—tried her best to make excuses for page: 57 you; said you were young and changeable, and foolish!"
Who likes being called foolish? none of us mind being called wicked; we take it rather civilly than otherwise; but who does not resent the imputation of folly? "Young and foolish, am I?" I cry, at white heat; "and what is she, pray? Would you like to know? Shall I tell you: she's a mean liar, that's what she is, there?"
Dick gnaws his moustache savagely; my nervous English displeases him. "Calling names is very easy," he says, angrily, "blackening another person to whitewash yourself; it's not quite so easy proving your assertions."
I come quite close to him, in my eagerness, and lay a hot white hand on his coat sleeve.
"Is not a liar a person that tells lies?" I ask.
"Of course."
"Well, did not she tell a lie, a villainous black lie, when she told you the day before yesterday that I wanted Hugh to drive me? page: 58 Don't I hate Hugh? don't I think him the dullest, tiresomest, botheringest, gray‐headedest old fogey that ever existed? She knows I do, and you know I do, only you're b—b—bent on br—breaking my heart."
So I finish with symptoms of imminent whimpering. Exeunt sulks and scowls from my lover's face.
"Is that true, Nell?"
"True! to be sure it is! Am I a liar, like Dolly?"
"On your honour?"
"On my honour."
"On your soul?"
"On my soul."
"You did not want to drive with him? You are sure."
"Not I, indeed! I was in such a rage that I would hardly speak to him all the way to Wilton, only he is such a dunderhead that I don't think he perceived it; how you ever could have believed such a transparent falsehood, passes my comprehension."
The gray eyes look rather ashamed of themselves, but very much pleased all the same.page: 59
"Was not it natural I should think you'd prefer a rich beggar like him to a poor devil, who has not got two halfpennies to rub together, like me?"
"Does one value one's friends in proportion to the depth of their money bags? If one did, I should have but a poor opinion of myself and my dear old father," I say gravely.
There comes a fresh burst of maniac mirth from the votaries of chow‐chow.
"He's cheating; he's cheating!" "Will you sell your deal?" "I'll give you half‐a‐crown for it." "Three shillings." "Twelve and ten is twenty‐two, I'm up!" "No thanks; I'll stand!" &c., &c.
"Come into the verandah, Nell," says Dick, taking my most willing fingers in his; "we cannot hear each other's voices for this Babel, can we?"
We pass into the verandah upon which the salon "gives," to use an Anglicised Gallicism. Roses, red and white; roses, full‐blown and over‐blown and budding; ruga, with her old‐fashioned scented clusters, and her redder sisters, climb and page: 60 clamber up the wooden trellis work; clematis weaves her tendrils in amongst them, and jessamine stars stud the deep green of ivy leaves. And through creepers and trellis work the moon looks down, benignant and gracious, and large and full, turning the night into a mellow softened feminine day.
She fell full on a beautiful passionate face (not mine, I don't mean), and on a form such as one may fancy those were that wrestled in blue and green on the bloody sand of the arena, before the pitiless Roman world, when (the cruel thumbs being turned down) many a gladiatorial Hercules bit the dust. Good God! how happy I was, lying in his arms, and with the top of my tall wreath scratching his handsome nose.
"I'm a jealous idiot, aren't I, pretty one?" he asks, raining kisses on my lips, thick as leaves in autumn, or the whirling Simois.
"Yes, Dick, I think so."
"You'll never think the same of me again, of course?"page: 61
"Oh, no, never!" (shaking my head with solemnity).
"But still, bad as I am, you like me a little bit better than Lancaster?"
"I should like you very little indeed, else."
"You little foolish girl! think of preferring me with twopence a year to him with a fine house, and a handle to his name."
"That's just what Dolly says; as you both say the same thing, there must be some truth in it; but it's never too late to mend, is it? The big house and the handle are still within reach, you know; will you come and see me when I'm Lady Lancaster?"
"No, I'm d—d if I will!"
I see the gray eyes flash in the moonlight at the bare idea of that visit.
"Nelly Lancaster! Eleanor Lancaster! how pretty it sounds!" I cry, pensively, plucking a moon washed rose, and sniffing at it.
"Nelly Lestrange is prettier, and Nelly M'Gregor is prettiest of all, isn't it, dar‐ darling page: 62 ling?" asks Dick, gathering me closer than ever to himself.
"What love is in the moon's eternal eyes Leaning unto the earth from out the blissful skies."
Did she look with love at us two poor fools, who, spendthrift‐like, were devouring our whole portion of bliss in one half hour; that portion, which, spread in a thin layer, over long years, ought to have afforded us a decent competence during our lives. Silent we stood there, passion‐drunk; did we remember then, in our perfect wonderful satisfaction, who it was that has said "this is not your rest?" The night wind sighs past; it is bearing, perhaps, some weary soul to the land that is very far off, it rocks the heavy‐folded roses, and whispers to us some vague sweet tale that we heed not.
"Oh, Dick!" I murmur, "I wish to God I could die now. I shall never, never be so happy again!"
Dick shudders through his strong young frame.page: 63
"Don't talk of dying, my darling! Your life is only just begun, you poor little child!"
"M'Gregor! M'Gregor! where are you?" sounds the stentor's voice of our worthy host, breaking prosaically on our touching dialogue at this point. "Where the devil is the fellow gone?"
"The fellow" makes no sign; he lies as quiet as a partridge between two turnip ridges. Then a dark head and a body issue from the saloon, and step through the French windows, on to the verandah.
"Oh, you're here, are you?" in a voice of anything but gratification at the discovery.
"Yes, my good fellow, you made such a row over your game, all of you, that we had to come out here for a little peace and quietness—hadn't we?" turning to me, with softened voice, and eyes fondly possessive. I say "yes," and mumble something, in an indistinct manner, about its being late, and going to bed, and—headache, and shuffle off, very red in page: 64 the face, leaving my two lovers to decide their rival claims to the possession of my person, by single combat, by lots, or by heads and tails, whichever they chose.

12 people for dinner down town? On a Friday!? We better at least decide tomorrow and call ahead 24 hours. Otherwise we'll never get in. Plus I couldn't be gone too long, I have to be back to help Mike at 9. 2 hours with a wait for a 12 top is likely going to put me out of dinner
Yep I completely agree with you, so we should just make a reservation at the hard rock cafe in my opinion

"Duluth's Population Gets Younger" & "Summer Road Construction Update"
2010 Census figures show Duluth residents are getting younger. The median age of the average Duluthian is now 33.6 years, younger than the median state age. Duluth officials are thrilled by the trend that is being spurred by job creation and a renaissance in the city's arts and cultural scene.
And year two of the I-35 "Mega Project" means more single-lane traffic, orange cones and alternate routes. But a summer of traffic pain will lead to long term gain in safer, smoother roads in the region.

Midfielder delighted to extend his stay
A delighted Dave Edwards today vowed to build on the success of last season after putting pen to paper on a new two-year contract.
The Welsh midfielder, who is closing in on 200 appearances for Wolves since arriving six years ago, enjoyed an impressive season as the team clinched the Sky Bet League One title, particularly in scoring six goals and contributing several assists in the final ten games.
And he believes he is extending his Molineux stay at a time when the club are heading in the right direction.
Edwards, pictured signing his new contract alongside Wolves' Club Secretary Richard Skirrow, says: "I'm really delighted to get it done and dusted and to now know that my future lies at Molineux.
"I've thoroughly enjoyed my time since I came here and especially at the moment with the way the club is going – it's great to be a part of it and hopefully ride this crest of the wave for another good season next year.
"If Wolves were going to give me a contract offer which I was pleased with there was never any other place I wanted to be.
"The club is going in the right direction now and had such a positive season with everything – on and off the pitch – and you'd be mad to not to want to be a part of it with everything that is happening at the moment.
"I had a great start to my career at Wolves with getting into the Premier League and then staying there for two good seasons before the relegation.
"For that to be followed by another relegation was obviously a massive blow and so we went into next season really needing a boost.
"I think the decisions that were made, bringing the gaffer in and him winning the crowd back, has helped bring about such a feelgood factor again.
"I can only see it heading in one direction now and people coming into the club will surely see everything going on as a massive plus and want to be a part of it."
This time last season Edwards acknowledged he was at a low ebb given the team's successive relegations and a number of unfortunate injury problems.
But, one year on, the contrast in fortunes for both him and the team has been substantial.
"I was probably one of the few who didn't want this season to finish," he added.
"Everyone was ready for summer but I wanted to carry the season on because I was playing games regularly and felt like I'd got into some really good form.
"I felt as fit as I had since we were in the Premier League.
"Hopefully I can continue all that into next season because I feel really good about myself and am back in love with the game.
"After the successive relegations and the injuries I was picking up, it wasn't hard to come into work but it was tough and I didn't really feel I was where I wanted to be with my football.
"But last season has really rekindled my love of the game.
"Of course it always helps if you stay fit and stay on the pitch which I managed to do and hopefully I can have a good, strong season as well."
Edwards has been appreciative of the opportunity given to him by Head Coach Kenny Jackett, as well as the support of the fans who recognised his influence especially in those closing weeks as the team moved near to promotion.
"I have got a lot to thank the gaffer for – he backed me, put me in the team and gave me a role which brings the best out of me," says Edwards.
"It has been a privilege to play for this club for the last six years and last season was one of the most enjoyable which hopefully I can continue next year.
"I need to thank the gaffer and Joe Gallen, and the fans as well.
"Over the years I know I have never been a fans' favourite but to get towards the end of last year and hear them singing my name when I came off at the last game of the season meant a lot to me and my family.
"It felt like I was building a relationship with them again and I certainly want to try and be here for many years to come.
"I hope the fans can see that I always give 100 per cent and hopefully they can see my footballing ability as well.
"I try and get into areas where I can affect the game and I am able to do that thanks to my workrate.
"I hope the fans know that every time I step onto the pitch and every day in training I give my all and that will always be the case."

As the old saying goes, *Bury me in a Pine Box beneath the Old Oak Tree*, well this is going to be a gobbler's pine box, and as hunters go we like to sit beneath an old oak tree for our setups, so the name fits. This is another Jack Pine box with a Maple surface and Padauk inlay, to match the orange tint in the mineral staining in this pine. These pine boxes are becoming my favorite wood for these teasers with a maple tops. They are very easy to run and will produce almost any sound a turkey can make. You can run a clean yelp or a nasty raspy jake yelp with them, the purrs are soft and you can make it sound any way you want, from a whinny begging purr to a deep chattery fighting purr, the cutts are clean, crisp, sharpe, and loud.
This call is headed to Nationals, Jack Pine/Maple with a Cedar striker.
Thanks for peekin, Scott .

When Eddie Met Carlyne
For his latest accessories collection, designer Eddie Borgo looked to legendary French fashion editor Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele, who knows a thing or two about bling.
AT FIRST GLANCE, jewelry designer Eddie Borgo and fashion editor Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele have little in common. One is a downtown denizen perpetually clad in a black blazer, skinny tie and black bowler.
The other is the daughter of a countess with a leonine coif and a regal manner whose shoe of choice is a gold Adidas high-top—fitting, given the exuberance with which she jumps into shoots with longtime collaborators Steven Meisel and Mario Testino. What they do share is a love of jewelry. Borgo's all-gold spring collection—inspired by de Dudzeele's lavishly accessorized '80s and '90s shoots in which she loaded up supermodels like Linda and Christy with chain necklaces, bangles and belts—aims to reinterpret and elaborate on her influence. "When you see her pictures you are seeing all of this really decadent gold jewelry. The more I learn about Carlyne, I see for her it was about bringing the street into the luxury market," says Borgo, who designed bangles, necklaces that convert into belts and "status links" in her honor. "Her shoots are such epic references now, the idea of that easiness, wearing jeans with your Chanel jacket and gold necklaces. It's about creating maximum aesthetic impact." Here, Borgo and de Dudzeele talk about their connection, the value of spontaneity, and offer advice for future designers.
More in What's News
WSJ. Magazine's cultural barometer for March, featuring the galleries of Mayfair and the blooming of new culinary empires.
Eddie Borgo: We were showing the collection in Paris, and people started saying, "You have to show it to Carlyne." And we were thinking, There is no way that Carlyne is going to come.
Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele: Why? I am the most simple person in the world. Anyone can call or email me. La simplicité is the chicest thing.
EB: Well, I was nervous to meet Carlyne and show her a collection that was inspired by her. But I started off making jewelry for editors, so it was a nice evolution to have a collection tied to her, because I think that she's one of the most significant editors of all time. Right away we started to work on new things together, like large earrings and other bracelets.
WSJ: What did you think when you saw Eddie's collection?
CCD: I like the inspiration board, I must say! It reminds me of very good souvenirs. I especially remember the Vogue cover with Karen Mulder. Patrick [Demarchelier] and I did it in five minutes—it's my cashmere sweater, all my jewelry, I just threw it on her and that's it. Voilà.
EB: There is such classicism to your style, but people like to say that it's decadence. They love to pin you as being a stylist who uses a lot of jewelry, but you don't seem to consider it—it's just a part of the whole look.
CCD: I don't think about jewelry or no jewelry, it's an attitude. You like it, yes, you put it on. When I work [on a shoot], I work on the body of the girl who is in front of me. I don't plan. But you cannot learn this, you have to be born with this sense inside you. You cannot sing if you don't have a voice.
EB: Out of all the collections we've done since we started in 2009, this had the most specific point of reference. We were identifying silhouettes from the time and dissecting them—whether it was pendant necklaces, chains that resembled coins or belts—and trying to make them more modern. How do you feel about jewelry today, Carlyne?
CCD: I totally adore jewelry. Le chic is to know how to mix. For example, my new thing that I simply adore is this NikeFuel band. The shape is exactly like my Pomellato bracelet, and I can see how many kilometers I walk. Ce n'est pas sublime? I love eccentricité, panache, riche. But you can be wearing jeans and be opulent. You can be stylish with a plastic bag.
EB: You worked with Gianni Versace, Karl Lagerfeld and Azzedine Alaia. Do you have fond memories?
CCD: That was the époque, because these were people—Gianni, Karl, Azzedine—who are talented. I worked seven years with Gianni. Our relationship was totally open. We would work all night, but it was fun. I was on the floor, saying, "Gianni, let's do this."
WSJ: Are you ever surprised anymore?
CCD: I am always surprised by Mr. Alaia. I think he's the best designer in the world. I adore Jeremy Scott. I love what he does, because he works from the street. C'est genial (pointing to her jacket)—smart, sublime.
EB: When I look back at your photographs, I realize that customers started wanting this jewelry, to buy it and wear it themselves, because it's aspirational.
CCD: For me there is no higher compliment than when women rip out the pages from the magazine and take them to the store. All the things I do are never démodé, because it's real. All this fashion we see now, every six months becomes démodé—bah! If you see a girl with a Chanel suit, it's not démodé. Chanel is never démodé; Adidas, never démodé; Hermès, never démodé. J'aime le classique.
WSJ: So how do you feel about having your images studied?
CCD: They should study them more.

Hydronephrosis -- Child
Hydronephrosis is when one or both kidneys swell with backed up urine. This swelling can lead to kidney damage. Hydronephrosis is not a condition but a symptoms of another condition.
Hydronephrosis is caused by urinary tract problems that makes it difficult for urine to leave the kidneys. Urine may be slowed or blocked by:
- A birth defect that causes a narrowing of the tube that leads from the kidney to the bladder
- Kidney stones
- Blood clots
- Tumors
- Scar tissue or injury to the urinary tract
Kidney, Ureter, Bladder, and Kidney Stone Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Other conditions that may cause problems with urine flow include:
- Reflux—urine to flows back into the kidneys from the bladder
- Abnormal bladder function due to problems with the nerves
In most cases, the child is born with one of these conditions that affect the urinary tract. For some, the condition develops later on.
Hydronephrosis is when one or both kidneys swell with backed up urine. This swelling can lead to kidney damage.
Hydronephrosis is not a condition but a symptoms of another condition.
Urinary Tract System Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The doctor will ask about your child's symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Your doctor may be able to feel the swollen kidney during the physical exam. The diagnosis may be confirmed with images of the kidneys. Images may be taken with:
- Ultrasound—may be done before birth
- Voiding cystourethrogram—x-rays of the bladder and urethra taken during urination
Note:This test is not done routinely in children aged 2-24 months.
Urine and blood tests may also be done to look for any changes in kidney function.
Other tests may be done to look for the cause of the hydronephrosis. This may include:
- MRI scan—can create images of the kidneys, bladder, and ureters
- CT scan
- Cystoscopy—to examine the bladder
In many cases, hydronephrosis cannot be prevented. If your child has bladder problems talk to the doctor about methods to make sure the bladder empties as needed.
Risk Factors
Male babies are more likely to have this complications than females.
In mild cases, there may not be any symptoms. If the condition is more severe, symptoms may include:
- Pain in the back, waist, lower abdomen, or groin
- Recurrent urinary or kidney infections
- Persistent pain with urination or urinary frequency
- Increased urge to urinate or urinary incontinence
- Fever
- Nausea and vomiting
- Unexplained itching
Hydronephrosis that develops before birth will often resolve on its own without kidney damage. The doctor will continue to monitor the kidneys until the swelling has gone away.
When necessary, the condition causing the back up of urine will be treated. This may include surgery or medication.
If the hydronephrosis is causing painful symptoms and there are signs of kidney damage, the urine may need to be drained. A tube may be placed through the skin to the kidneys to allow the urine to drain.

About Ray Griff
Canadian singer and songwriter Ray Griff overcame a difficult childhood to become one his country's more successful country songwriters. Born on April 22, 1940 in Vancouver, British Columbia, he moved to Winfield, Alberta with his mother and brother when his parents split up. Suffering from a stuttering problem, Griff found solace in his love for music, forming a band with several other local kids at the age of eight, drumming and singing. He soon taught himself to play guitar and piano and, by the time he was twelve, Griff was writing songs. Although he earned an invitation to join the Canadian Olympic team as a long jumper, he put aside athletic endeavors to remain focused on music fronting his own band, The Blue Echos, while in high school. The group played often around Calgary (where Griff's family had relocated) and one performance led to Griff touring Western Canada as an opener for Johnny Horton at the age of sixteen. During the our, Griff played a song for Horton which he had written specifically for the singer. Horton ended up cutting the song, "Mister Moonlight, and Griff began making trips to Nashville in 1961 to pitch songs. His next break came when singer Jim Reeves took note of Griff's "Where Do We Go From Here" and, after recording the song, encouraged Griff to relocate to Nashville. However, shortly after Griff arrived, Reeves was killed in an accident and Griff was forced to take on a succession of odd jobs to support himself while he attempted to get his fledgling career off the ground. He briefly signed a record contract but the deal fell through. An opportunity to play a song for legendary producer Owen Bradley led to a publishing deal instead and for the next two decades Griff would make a name as a successful songwriter with his songs recorded by numerous country notables including Ray Price, Mel Tillis, Dolly Parton, and George Jones. Griff continued to perform during this time, releasing a handful of his own albums such as Songs For Everyone and The Last Of The Winfield Amateurs, as well as having a television show in Canada. In 1989, he was inducted into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame and two years later saw him issue See Ya, Love Ya, Bye, his first album in fifteen years. ~ Tom Demalon, Rovi

"I wasn't always a feminist. In fact, I used to think feminists were sexually undesirable and perpetually angry. (Boy, was I wrong. Feminists are perpetually desirable, and I am sexually angry.)" Anastasia Higginbotham, "Chicks Goin' At It"
So, the school year is wrapping up. This week is final conferences and then registration. The graduating seniors have their senior dinner Wednesday night and Commencement is on Saturday. Soon it will be only summer, summer, summer. Which of course means something different for everyone.
For those of us who are already "real" adults, the same jobs that we have worked for years will continue on. Some of us who don't have jobs now, maybe we'll pick one up for a few months. Some of us may even continue working Federal Work Study at Shimer for the next few months. Some of us will be leaving this place forever, scattering in the wind to the four corners of the world. Some of us will work internships whether they are paid, unpaid, or paid through Shimer. Some of us will go home to families that we haven't seen in months.
As for me, I will be remaining in Chicago all summer. I have: begun my internship at the Chicago Dramatists, started my FWS job, registered for a summer class, commenced the sad process of looking for new roommates, and started the reading for my thesis (which is where I found the introductory quote).
Some people have told me that I am crazy for starting my thesis so soon, but people have started sooner than I! I have a little under a year to complete my project, which is already looking daunting. Currently, I am halfway through the first book on my reading list, Listen Up: Voices from the Next Feminist Generation. It is pretty wonderful so far, I would recommend (at least the first half of) it to anyone interested in knowing a little more about feminism.

Medgar Evers' widow to pray at inauguration
President Obama has selected Myrlie Evers-Williams, former chair of the NAACP, to deliver the invocation at his inauguration on Jan. 21.
Evers-Williams fought for justice for 30 years after her husband, Mississippi field secretary for the NAACP, was gunned down in his driveway in Jackson in 1963. She authored three books about their civil rights work.
"I am humbled to have been asked to deliver the invocation," Evers-Williams said in a statement. "It is indeed an exhilarating experience to have the distinct honor of representing [the Civil Rights] era."
The theme of the inauguration is "Faith in America's Future."
Survey shows Christian persecution 'vastly rose'
The persecution of Christians "vastly rose" in 2012, according to Open Doors, a California-based Christian missionary organization that publishes an annual list of offending nations.
North Korea topped Open Doors' list for the 11th year in a row, and was followed by Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and Iraq.
In China, the picture for Christians continues to improve, as the country slid from No. 21 in 2011 to No. 37 in 2012 – a stark difference from its Top 10 ranking five years ago.
Syria, in the throes of a bloody revolution, particularly concerned the group, which jumped from No. 36 in 2011 to No. 11 in 2012. Under President Bashar al-Assad, who is now waging a campaign against Syrian rebels, Christians were allowed to worship but not evangelize, according to Open Doors.

After nearly five years as co-anchor of TODAY, Meredith Vieira has decided to leave the show in June. Ann Curry will take her place as co-anchor of America's No. 1 morning show alongside Matt Lauer. Meredith will continue in a new role at NBC News, with an official announcement in the coming months.

TODAY's current third hour co-host, Natalie Morales, has been named news anchor, and NBC News White House correspondent and msnbc anchor Savannah Guthrie will be co-host of the third hour of TODAY. The new anchor team will debut in June.
"This is a difficult day for me," Meredith said in an emotional announcement on TODAY Monday. "I'm going to try to hold myself together here. But after months of personal reflection and private conversations between my family and my friends, I've decided to leave TODAY in June.
"I've really had a great time, but time is one of those weird things; you can never get enough of it," she said. "And it just keeps ticking away, and I know that I want to spend more of mine with my husband, Richard, and my kids, Ben, Gabe and Lily."Story: Departing Vieira: My husband 'is in good health'
Matt Lauer spoke for the TODAY team when he said they felt "blessed" to have worked with Meredith. "Meredith is universally adored here at TODAY," he said. "And not just by those of us on the couch, but all the people behind the scenes. She has brought class and dignity and talent. And a joy of life to this show over these last five years. And we will miss you like crazy."
"You've been a gift to this broadcast," Ann Curry chimed in. "You have been generous and you have been a great girlfriend."
TODAY's anchors aren't the only ones who will miss Meredith when she leaves the show. "Meredith is a remarkable woman and broadcaster who in five short years has left an indelible imprint on morning television," NBC News president Steve Capus said in a statement. "While we will miss waking up with her each morning, we are working together on developing her next chapter at NBC News."allDAY: 10 reasons we love Meredith
TODAY executive producer Jim Bell said in a statement, "Meredith has been a part of the family since day one, connecting not only to our viewers, but also to each and every member of TODAY. Her transition into the role of co-anchor alongside Matt was as seamless as anyone in my position could have ever hoped for or imagined. With an innate grace and a rare combination of humor and humanity, she truly breaks the mold."
Meredith, 57, joined Matt at the anchor desk in September 2006 when Katie Couric left to anchor the CBS Evening News. Since then, the TODAY audience has come to know Meredith as a distinguished and savvy newswoman — with a zany streak.Slideshow: The many sides of Meredith (on this page)
Meredith has brought warmth and empathy to her interviews, and she has profiled many individuals who have undergone significant tragedies or unexpected upheavals in their lives. She introduced the world to Charla Nash, the woman who survived an unspeakable chimp attack that disfigured her face, but didn't dampen her spirit. She also brought viewers the emotional story of David Goldman, the New Jersey man who fought a five-year custody battle to recover his son Sean from his ex-wife's family in Brazil.
Archive video: Meredith recounts career on first day
Meredith has conducted hard-hitting interviews with political figures such as Sen. Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama, and she spoke with former CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson in her first-ever live television interview after her identity was revealed. Her memorable exclusive celebrity interviews include Janet Jackson, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Susan Boyle, Kate Gosselin, and Madonna.
TODAY has also been a place for Meredith to show off her humorous side, whether while ice skating with Will Ferrell (and smacking her head on the ice!), dressing up as Lady Gaga for Halloween or joking about polishing James Franco's Oscar.

Meredith — a native of Providence, R.I., and a graduate of Tufts University in Massachusetts — began her journalism career in 1975. Her first job was a news announcer position for WORC-Radio in Worcester, Mass.
She went on to join CBS News as a reporter in its Chicago bureau in January 1982. She was named a correspondent in 1984 and covered Sen. Alan Cranston's presidential bid, the 1984 Democratic National Convention in San Francisco and, as a correspondent, election night 1984.

Meredith spent more than a decade at CBS News, where she earned five Emmy Awards for her work as a correspondent on newsmagazines and "West 57th" and "60 Minutes." She was a co-editor of "60 Minutes" from 1989 to 1991, and left the program when she was pregnant with her second child.
In 1993 she joined ABC and became chief correspondent of "Turning Point," which debuted in March 1994. In 1997, she joined ABC's "The View" as one of its original moderators.
Today, she continues to serve as host of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," a position she's held since 2002. She won two Daytime Emmy Awards for her role on that show, in 2005 and again in 2009.
Meredith the person
Perhaps more than any other position she's held, Meredith's role as TODAY co-anchor has allowed her to open up to millions — and has allowed viewers to feel as if they know her personally. Meredith took TODAY viewers with her on a journey to explore her family's Portuguese heritage, and invited us to join her as she returned to her very first job as a tap-dancing instructor. Viewers have gotten to know her family, including her mischievous dog Jasper , a frequent visitor to the TODAY set.
Meredith's husband, Emmy-award winning journalist Richard Cohen, has also appeared on TODAY. During a three-part series that aired in January 2008, the author and multiple sclerosis sufferer discussed his book, "Strong at the Broken Places," which tells hopeful stories about five people also living with chronic illnesses.
"We're all human beings, we're not cases," Cohen told TODAY's Ann Curry. "We're people trying to build lives, trying to have relationships, families, and lead a very productive, satisfying life."
In the next chapter of her life, Meredith says she looks forward to spending more time with Richard and their three children — and sleeping in. She knows she is leaving TODAY in capable hands with Ann Curry in the anchor seat.

"We have the luxury to bring such talent like Savannah up from DC to join the TODAY team — she'll be great in the 9 a.m. hour and everywhere else we can showcase her legal and political background," said Capus. "With the strength of TODAY's many valuable players both on air and behind the scenes, we will undoubtedly accomplish another smooth transition and continue to be who America turns to every morning."
As for the TODAY anchors, they still have some time to revisit their favorite Meredith memories before she leaves in June. "We've got a few weeks to torment you — I mean, pay tribute to you — and we're going to do a lot of that," Matt promised Meredith.

Wisconsin boy suspended for giving KKK art to black student
Baldwin - A high school in western Wisconsin has suspended a ninth-grade boy for giving a small noose and "KKK symbol" to a black classmate.
Baldwin-Woodville High School Principal Eric Russell says he suspended the boy Dec. 14 after he confessed to placing the offensive items on the classmate's desk.
Russell said Friday the little macrame noose and "some kind of KKK symbol" were made in art class. The principal says the boy said he did it as a joke.
The girl's foster mother says she is 15 years old and one of only three black students in the 450-student school.
The Star Tribune reports that the boy's suspension will begin when students return to school next week. The principal declined to say how long the suspension will last.

It's Showtime Lyon: Anderson Silva Replaces Slowinski Against Daniel Ghita
- Written by Dave Walsh
A few bits of juicy news coming out of the It's Showtime camp on this rather gorgeous (at least where I am) Friday afternoon. The first bit of news comes in the form of Paul Slowinski having to withdraw from the big It's Showtime card in Lyon, France on May 14th. We saw this coming from a mile away as Slowinski had to pull out of a fight a few weeks ago due to injury and there was no way he'd be OK in time to square off against a beast like Daniel Ghita.
Ghita just came off of a hard-fought loss against Hesdy Gerges on March 6th in a bout that is still disputed by fans across the globe. We are all hoping to get an eventual rematch on that bout, but for now we'll see Ghita back in action in May. This is hard luck for Slowinski, a fighter who has always just been out of reach for being one of the top Super Heavyweights in the world. Slowinski always strings together impressive wins before putting on disappointing performances against fighters he should be beating or top of the food chain competition like Badr Hari and Melvin Manhoef. One man's loss is another man's gain, though, as Anderson "Braddock" Silva has been pulled from his bout with Jamal Ben Saddik on May 21, with Saddik now looking for a new opponent and Braddock replacing Slowinski.
Silva had a rough 2010, racking up 3 of his career 5 wins, with two of them against Mourad Bouzidi. Braddock made an exclamation point for the year of 2010 with an amazingly brutal head kick knockout on Freddy Kemayo that made a few highlight reels so far. This proves as another chance for Braddock to prove himself against top competition against a K-1 Final 8 competitor in Daniel Ghita. [source]

In introductory remarks at the University's annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebration Jan. 17, Princeton President Shirley M. Tilghman emphasizes that today's young generation has a responsibility to use technological advances for the greater good. The King Day ceremony focused on exploring the environmental impact of Hurricane Katrina and the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf Coast region, in the context of King's vision for equality and his concern for the poor and oppressed.

Honoring King, Jones stresses 'hope is a renewable resource'
Posted January 17, 2011; 07:50 p.m.
Today's young Americans must combine their technological savvy with a commitment to environmental sustainability to help achieve Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream of a just society, keynote speaker Van Jones told the audience at Princeton University's annual King Day ceremony today.
This year's event focused on exploring the environmental impact of Hurricane Katrina and the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf Coast region, in the context of King's vision for equality and his concern for the poor and oppressed. The theme was addressed in literary arts, visual arts and video contests for students from area schools. Jones, an environmental activist who is a visiting fellow at Princeton, pointed to the student contest winners who were honored at the ceremony as examples of a generation that holds the power to realize King's vision.
"You are the most technologically savvy and sophisticated generation of Americans that we have ever had. Many of you don't know how much power you possess," Jones said. He implored young Americans to "stop using this technology as toys and start using it as tools to connect your generation globally."
Noting that he was born in 1968, the year King was assassinated, Jones said, "It took 40 years for hope to become a mass phenomenon again in America. … Hope is a renewable resource, but it comes back in very long arcs. You happen to be alive at a time when hope is being reborn in your country. And thank goodness you're here, because the challenges now are as great, if not greater, than they were when Dr. King was a young man."
Jones, a former adviser to the Obama administration on green jobs and innovation, holds a joint appointment at Princeton's Center for African American Studies and Program in Science, Technology and Environmental Policy in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. He told the campus and community members in attendance at the King Day ceremony that America's reliance on fossil fuels must end in order to avoid disasters such as the BP oil spill and other environmental catastrophes.
Keynote speaker Van Jones, an environmental activist who is a visiting fellow at Princeton, exhorts young members of the King Day audience to embrace the challenge of preserving America's future by using their technological skills and by promoting environmental sustainability.
"You can't drill holes and pull out death from the ground -- burn death in your engines, burn death in your power plants -- and then be shocked when you get death from the skies in the form of global warming and death from the oceans in the form of oil spills," he said.
Addressing the students, he said, "The question is: Can your generation insist that our society stop drilling those holes at some point?"
He stressed the need for a "broader portfolio of energy and employment options in our country, because America's future is not down those holes. … If you want to see the future, look at the living sun … look at the wind."
Devastating events such Katrina and the BP oil spill show the need for change both in environmental policy and in how the underprivileged are treated in America, Jones said.
"You have some warning signs, bequeathed to you by my generation, that our present trajectory is inadequate and dangerous," he said.
"If you want to bring forward Dr. King's view, you have to be the generation that says: 'Never again. Not on our watch. We don't let the poor sink or swim in this country when catastrophes come. We don't turn on each other -- we turn to each other. We are all in this together.'"
Visual arts, literary arts and video contest first-place winners are (from left) Robyn Carter, grade 6; Taylor Filippini, grade 10; Carlie Fasanella, grade 12; Devon Fitzgerald, grade 9; and Iman Khan, grade 8.
In introductory remarks, Princeton President Shirley M. Tilghman also emphasized that today's young generation has a responsibility to leverage technological advances for the greater good.
"While technology has given us unprecedented power to both span and shape the world, until we exercise this power in a spirit of mutual responsibility, racism and poverty will continue to divide us, our global environment will suffer, and those who have the least will lose the most when disaster strikes," Tilghman said.
Acknowledging the student winners, Tilghman said, "As the compelling entries in this year's contest remind us, we must protect the global environment as if it were our own backyard, because it is. The environmental welfare of our planet -- and the well-being of future generations -- calls for precisely the kind of solidarity that Dr. King championed."
Tilghman presents the MLK Day Journey Award for Special Achievement to Josue Lajeunesse, a University janitor who works to bring clean drinking water to his family's village in Haiti.
The ceremony included the presentation of the MLK Day Journey Awards, which recognize efforts to continue the journey to achieve Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision. Thomas Parker, a mail carrier who has worked at the University since 1979, received the Journey Award for Lifetime Service for his role as an advocate and adviser to co-workers and for his dedication to community service. Josue Lajeunesse, a janitor who has been at Princeton since 1995, received the Journey Award for Special Achievement for his work to bring clean drinking water to his family's village in Haiti.
Thomas Parker, a University mail carrier who has been involved in many efforts to serve the campus and local communities, receives the Journey Award for Lifetime Service from Tilghman as Lajeunesse looks on.
The event also featured musical selections from One Voice-Trenton Children's Chorus and Westminster Conservatory Cantus and from soloist Rochelle Ellis.

text: You really can't say if Tanny is good or not. He was a rookie, had poor line play, lacked wr talent. His rookie year was a C grade, made mistakes, made some good throws. He never really put the team on his back like Marino did as a young qb. I think we will know more next year with an upgraded roster. Henne had a promising rookie year and then never really progressed after that. Of course he didn't have a good offensive coordinator or weapons around him. This team has lacked a seam threat TE for a long time, a (good) burner at WR, and good OL. Until all those fall into place I think its unfair to judge him a qb. IMO,

The place to be....for the Characters, Places & Things
on Television
Fruit Brute - In the 1970s, General Mills, Inc.
resurrected some frightfully classic movie characters like Frankenstein,
Dracula, Wolfman and the Mummy for a series of TV commercials that advertised
its new line of monster cereal for children.
The first character debuted in 1971 as Count Chocula, a bucktoothed
vampire who talked like Bela Lugosi (voiced by Larry Kenney) and always argued
over who had the tastiest cereals. The Count Chocula cereal had little chocolate
marshmallows in it and 119 calories per cup (30g). Constantly pushing his
product, the Count -speaking in a Transylvanian accent - proclaimed: "I vant to
eat your cereal!"
Soon other mascots followed including FrankenBerry, a pink
monster with a voice like Boris Karloff; Boo Berry, a Peter Lorre sounding
ghost; Fruit Brute, a howling Wolfman, and a friendly bandaged Egyptian monster
called the Yummy Mummy.
The ads were created by Dancer, Fitzgerald and Sample ad
agency. The Monster Cereals have been featured in movies like Pulp Fiction
(1994) and
on TV shows like THE SIMPSONS.

Luckily, the coat and an incredible job on the head more than make up for its shortcomings.

Use a rolling pin or meat mallet to crush the fennel seeds. Fresh mozzarella can be found at many supermarkets and at specialty foods stores and Italian markets.

I love this sauce which I made with cherry tomatoes from the garden and FOUR cloves of garlic roughly chopped. But I made my own dough in the bread maker on the dough setting. So easy and very good. And then baked it directly on a stone tile, my version of a pizza stone. Getting the sauced and cheesed pizza onto the stone was not easy and it looked funny but when the baking was done, it was delicious.
Messy to make, but tasted excellent. Made with one chopped medium vine tomato and plum tomatoes, shredded mozzarella and pre-cooked pizza bases as that is what I could find locally. Everything else as written. Will use a higher sided pan next time.
Yum! Followed the recipe pretty faithfully for the first time. Added mushrooms and used Trader Joe's garlic and herb pizza dough. Very flavorful. Baked it on a cookie sheet lined with Teflon liner, then peeled away liner when cooling on rack.
i enjoy just how this recipe looks i eaten it before with my loved ones most of us enjoyed this we can have a household gathering again and cook this recipe again soon this really is one tasty recipe you have to test it i guarantee you whatever you should this its very tasty
Made this tonight for my family and it was a huge hit. The only change I made was to double the garlic and I agree with another review to buy fresh pizza dough. This is fantastic
Made this last night for my brother's birthday, and it was a hit with the whole family! They even said they prefer this pizza over the pizza you'd get from a pizza parlor. It was my first time making it, and I will make it again soon, hopefully. Tons of flavor, delicious.
This was a great recipe. Used frozen pizza dough from Fresh Market and added some chunks of chicken breast.
This was really great. Don't use a tube of pizza dough. Buy fresh from your grocery store (Wegmans is great) or pizza parlor if you don't feel like making your own. I doubled the red pepper and ground it and the fennel with a pestle. It seemed easier than smashing that small an amount with a huge rolling pin. I also tripled the garlic. We really like garlic. The sauce was son delicious and easy I may never buy bottled again. You could probably use a bit less basil than called for. A third cup is a bit much. I love basil, but a quarter cup is probably sufficient.
First time ever I was not thrilled with an epicurious recipe. If I had read the reviews more carefully I would have known they were for the sauce, not the dough. Disappointed is an understatement. Will try another pizza dough recipe until I find the right one. Living in the U.K., that is one thing I really miss about America - good pizza!
Great simple pizza recipe that small children (3-6 y/o and up) can "help" you make. My granddaughter is in the kitchen grating and mincing toppings( with a butter knife;)) for this pie as I type. She'll have the pleasure of adding topping ingredients to the pie at her own discretion before baking the pie. The cherry tomato sauce is SLAMMING and will certainly show up as part of our regular roster whether at home,on the grill or incorporated in a pasta dish. Believe it or not, this pie will have roasted beets, mushrooms and carrots amongst the toppings. Many of the veggies are items I have difficulties getting her to eat solo. In the interest of time yet w/o sacrifices, I bought the pizza dough from WF; worthy!

NASA Tech Briefs is...
- A unique, powerful tool for engineers, managers, and scientists
- the largest circulation design engineering magazine
When the U.S. Congress formed the National Aeronautics & Space Administration in 1958, it mandated in the charter that NASA and its contractors must report to industry any new, commercially-significant technologies developed in the course of their R&D, so that engineers, managers, and scientists could use this valuable information to improve their competitiveness and productivity. For more than three decades, this has been accomplished primarily through the publication of NASA Tech Briefs.
First issued as single sheet reports in the 1960s and converted to a magazine format in the 1970s, NASA Tech Briefs has been a joint publishing venture of NASA and Tech Briefs Media Group (New York City) since 1985, a pioneering government-private sector partnership that has saved taxpayers millions of dollars in publishing costs while dramatically increasing the magazine's reach to OEM design/development engineers and managers.
Today, NASA Tech Briefs' qualified circulation surpasses 190,000.
The monthly magazine features exclusive reports of innovations developed by NASA and its industry partners/contractors that can be applied to develop new/improved products and solve engineering or manufacturing problems. Authored by the engineers or scientists who did the work, the briefs span a wide array of fields, including electronics, physical sciences, materials, computer software, mechanics, machinery/automation, manufacturing/fabrication, mathematics/information sciences, and life sciences.
Most briefs offer a Technical Support Package, which explains the technology in greater detail and provides contact points for questions or licensing discussions.
NASA Tech Briefs also contains feature articles on successful NASA spinoffs, profiles of NASA tech transfer resources, news briefs, and application stories. Regular columns describe new patents, industry products, software, and literature.

Freedom and Ease of Being: A Meditation Retreat for Our LGBTIQ Community (5 days)
September 2 – 7, 2014 (Tuesday to Sunday)
Registration for this retreat is closed
All scholarship funds have been awarded.
This insight retreat creates a space of ease and support for our LGBTIQ meditators to come together, beginners and experienced practitioners alike. Sharing silence and meditative space allows us to make greater peace with ourselves and our lives, one moment at a time. We learn to find an ever-deepening sense of wellbeing, touching joy and fostering the heart's release. While listening to the teachings of wisdom and compassion, and sitting and walking mindfully, liberating insights arise, and clarity and freedom is gained. We practice in this way both for our own benefit and for the benefit of others.

Every time this guy opens his mouth I shake my head and thank god that George Bush maintained his health while in office.
He was interviewed on Hannity and during the interview accused President Obama of aiding and comforting the enemy because he decided to have Khalid sheik Mohammeds trial in Federal court in New York City. Now aiding and comforting the enemy is the same phrase that is used in the Constitution and is part of the definition of Treason. Now if he believes that, which I assume he does, why doesn't he say the President is committing treason?
Because this guy is a coward and has demonstrated it many times throughout his life. He talks tough and is very cavalier with other parents kids when it comes to wars but never served a day in his life and even said that Rush Limbaugh is a better republican than Colin Powell. This guy is no more than the bothersome ankle biting chihuahua that turns tale everytime you make sudden move towards it.

I. What subjects in your opinion ought to be discussed at the National Convention?
All those broad principles which will determine what the nature of our future social page: 8 structure is to be—i.e. Federation or Unification; the basis of representation; the native question; the nature and functions of the Federal Court, etc. etc. etc., and all matters touching trade. I look upon this Convention mainly as the voice of one preparing the way; its value should be chiefly educational; it should indicate for us in outline what the feeling of the different States and classes is, and what exactly are the nature of the chief difficulties which have to be overcome; so giving the mind of the nation something definite to work on.

I've never purchased any before and now doesn't seem like the time to start collecting them so I'm willing to "pay it forward" and give them away to whoever wants them and contacts me first. It's one of the TRU exclusive sets that contains Anakin and Sebulba's podracers and a Trade Federation Control ship painted in a Separatist motif. All you've got to do is send me the cost of shipping or mail me a self-addressed, stamped receptacle and they're all yours!
