Budweiser's Made in America festival wrapped up their two-day stint yesterday. Not even crummy rainy weather throughout the day could muck up the conclusion of the show.
Legendary rock band Pearl Jam closed the show this night. And though that performance was great and even included another appearance by Jay-Z – who came out and performed "99 Problems" – the highlight of the day came earlier, when Run-DMC hit the stage together for the first time in over a decade.

Ten years is a long time to go without working together, however, Rev Run and DMC showed no signs of rust and no lack of chemistry as they swagged their way though a number of their greatest hits: including "My Adidas," "Mary Mary," "It's Like That" and of course, the all-time great, "Walk This Way."

Run-DMC was so good that in the middle of their set, Jay-Z and Beyonce worked their way from the VIP section to the crowd to get a better view of the legends.
A touching moment occurred about 30 minutes through Run-DMC's set. The music stopped and Rev Run talked about the band halting the group after DJ Jam Master jay was tragically killed in 2002. Then, Jay's two sons, who are also DJs, Jam Master J'Son and Dasmatic Mizell, both rocked a solo set on the turntables, proving that Jay's legendary DJ skills still live on.
Besides Run-DMC, the other major rap entities to hit the stage yesterday were Odd Future, who had a very lively crowd watching, including Jaden Smith. Drake was also on hand to hold things down with some help from 2 Chainz and French Montana.
Earlier highlights from the festival included lively performances from Roc Nation's first lady Rita Ora, who has the number one album in the U.K. this week, Philly-native Santigold and R&B legend Jill Scott, who cemented the greatness of her set when she brought out fellow Philly rapper Eve to raucous applause.
Just an incredible finish to an incredible festival. We hope to see you again next year, Philly.

Sage RPLX & Overlining?
Juro & Eddie,
Thanks for your thoughts and insights. I think you boys have saved me from selling this rod and buying another to replace it. Sorry Juro.
I suspect that the VPS is from the RPL blank(4pc vs 3pc).
The RPLX is a prime canidate for a 10wt line. You will like it for all distances.
That rod is a real pain in the butt, terrible. In fact I suggest you sell it to me at a fair price just to relieve you of the trouble of solving this problem.
Yes, the RPLX can be overloaded with good results. I have cast th10wt Rio clear tip aqualux floating / intermediate tip line on that rod as well as any of the higher grain (325-350 grain) sinking head lines like the Rio Deep Sea and they rocket out there. The floater w/ tip casts better with more line out but the loop forms well with short lines too. You just need to get enough grains out there before you can shoot line. With the sinking heads like the 350 grain deep sea that rod just turns into a rocket launcher.
I am building the VPS 4-pc 10wt Sage Travel rod which to me feels close to that 9wt RPLX travel rod. I used to have one but it was lost by Airborne, sent uninsured by a friend I had loaned it to on the Florida Keys. The VPS feels a little sweeter in the heart of the blank and I can't wait to finish mine. I've cast the factory built version and it's going to work out with the above Rio lines real nice.
Sage RPLX & Overlining?
I've got a first generation Sage RPLX 9wt travel rod, which has a pretty stiff tip and fast action. I enjoy using the rod to sling a long line while distance casting but to get it to load when you're making a short cast to a fish coming in close is pretty tough.
Has anyone out that has this rod or another RPLX model experimented with overlining? Did this effectively solve the short distance loading/casting concern? And if so, how detrimental was it to the rod's ablility to carry a lot of line in the air for making longer casts?
Thanks for any insights you might offer? John

I would **** myself if the draft panned out like that.Let me offer a mock draft of my own:
1st Round (High Pick): DE Bjoern Werner, Florida State - The most complete defensive end in the Draft. He's not just your typical smart/high motor white guy at defensive end. His take-off from the blocks and reactions to the snap are consistently among the best I've seen. He has the pure ability to blow by guys like they're standing still, but he combines that with good eyes for and immediate reaction to the action in the backfield, and excellent hand use. He slimmed down this year and looks more explosive than ever, while still being a wrecking ball against the run, and having the same knack for getting his hands up and batting passes that you see in a J.J. Watt. There have been times they've put him up in a two point stance and allowed him freedom in his rush, and the results have been spectacular. Werner will be terrorizing offenses for the next decade. He's the perfect complement to Cameron Wake, who by the way will turn 31 years old before this year's Super Bowl is played. You do have to start thinking about which defensive end will take over and be dominant when Cameron Wake starts to fall off, which could happen as soon as three or four years from now. He has an A+ character background as well. He became the architect of his own future NFL career at 15 to 16 years old. Nobody did anything for him, literally. And he's already married, which is considered a good thing from a character standpoint where NFL scouts are concerned.
2nd Round (High Pick): CB Desmond Trufant, Washington - Mr. Trufant is becoming a popular man, as I've mentioned. If you try and wait for him to fall down the boards you may miss out. I also like Terry Hawthorne around this area of the Draft, and that may come into play because you may not even get Trufant at the top of the 2nd round. Corners with his kind of movement ability, burst, explosiveness and innate physicality tend to rise. There may not be enough corners in this Draft with his level of speed, either. Down the road if he's not working out as a corner, you can probably move him to free safety and still get production out of him. He has the hips for either spot.
2nd Round (Low Pick): WR Quinton Patton, Louisiana Tech - This is a guy that I have had to slowly get more and more familiar with as a player because I hadn't done any preseason work on him. The more I saw, the more I liked what I saw. He's got excellent foot quickness and balance. The quickness helps him make a lot of people miss with the ball in his hands. He's actually got underrated size. The only weakness and the reason you'd get him this far down the board to begin with is his deep speed and inability to create separation with straight up speed. Still it wouldn't surprise me if he were gone by the time we reached this pick. I envision Patton as a guy that could work the slot or the split end position and provide just as much at those positions as we would see from Davone Bess or Brian Hartline.
3rd Round (High Pick): WR Markus Wheaton, Oregon State - This receivers unit needs an overhaul. I think we can agree on that. Absent a considerable free agent signing (Greg Jennings?), I'm looking at conducting the overall through the Draft. Wheaton is one of the most explosive wide receivers in this Draft. He's lightning speed and quickness combined with a knack for pulling in the ball despite physical coverage. He has a lot of the same foot quickness as Patton but with more long speed but less size. You could imagine these two working together for a while. The problem for Wheaton is he could be anywhere from Mike Wallace all the way down to Tiquan Underwood. You don't know how he'll handle the physicality of the NFL at his size (6'0", 190 lbs) until he actually gets there. But this guy can blow the top off zone coverage, and unlike what you see in some other burners, he can run routes. An alternative to taking Wheaton here could be to go after Virginia Tech's Corey Fuller some time later. Fuller is a natural athlete with blazing speed and I have always found him a more compelling player than his more impressively sized counterpart, Marcus Davis. Fuller is on a fast ascent after starting out a track and field player then converting to football.
3rd Round (Low Pick): RB Dennis Johnson, Arkansas - Dennis Johnson has spent so much time on my radar screen that, quite frankly, no matter which team he goes to I will be glad to see him finally out of the college football ranks. I have had a high grade on his potential as a running back since he embarrassed the Florida Gators repeatedly with broken tackles back in 2009. Questions about work ethic and a few injuries have kept him from reaching his potential, but to me he's still like a 215 lbs version of Darren Sproles. He has the same quickness at a bigger size and with uncanny tackle breaking ability fueled by his ever-churning feet. He's become a pretty damn good blocker over the years as well. I like that he's been through the school of hard knocks a little bit at Arkansas, with some disappointment along the way, some lessons learned. In the NFL at his position, success is fleeting and you're not often given the chance to be "the man" by yourself. But this guy is going to be a steal wherever he goes, you can mark me on that. Miami appears set to let Reggie Bush walk and Daniel Thomas is not even worth a roster spot. I'm as high on Lamar Miller as anyone but he can't be your only guy and both he and Jonas Gray are big question marks at this point. It can't hurt to bolster this position.
4th Round (High Pick): LB Jake Knott, Iowa State - This is a natural replacement for Kevin Burnett some time down the road when the Dolphins decide Burnett isn't making enough plays relative to his pay grade. Knott is as a pass covering linebacker almost exactly what Luke Kuechly was, in terms of instincts and ability. The difference is that Kuechly had better ability as a run stopper. But in today's game, especially if the Dolphins already have a wall of force on the front lines with Paul Soliai, Randy Starks, Bjoern Werner, Karlos Dansby and Koa Misi, then having the kind of plus instincts you get from a coverage linebacker in the short areas of the field can be the difference between a pretty good defense and a championship defense. Teams love to throw the football around in the short areas of the field like extended run plays. They love option routes. Getting some linebackers that can show the instincts and ball skills to take the football away in those areas is a premium.

Recent experiences on wiki have soured the form for me, so my main interest here is considering alternatives.

A cluster headache is a type of headache. It is one-sided head pain that may involve tearing of the eyes and a stuffy nose. Attacks occur regularly for 1 week to 1 year. The attacks are separated by pain-free periods that last at least 1 month or longer.
Cluster headaches may be confused with other common types of headaches, such as migraines, sinus headache, and tension headache.
Histamine headache; Headache - histamine; Migrainous neuralgia; Headache - cluster; Horton's headache
Doctors do not know exactly what causes cluster headaches. They seem to be related to the body's sudden release of histamine (chemical in the body released during an allergic response) or serotonin (chemical made by nerve cells). A problem in a small area at the base of the brain called the hypothalamus may be involved.
More men than women are affected. The headaches can occur at any age, but are most common in adolescence and middle age. They tend to run in families.
Cluster headaches may be triggered by:
A cluster headache begins as a severe, sudden headache. The headache commonly strikes 2 to 3 hours after you fall asleep. But it can also occur when you are awake. The headache tends to happen daily at the same time of day. Attacks can last for months. They can alternate with periods without headaches (episodic) or they can go on for a year or more without stopping (chronic).
Cluster headache pain is usually:
When the eye and nose on the same side as the head pain are affected, symptoms can include:
Your health care provider can diagnose this type of headache by performing a physical exam and asking about your symptoms and medical history.
If a physical exam is done during an attack, the exam will usually reveal Horner syndrome (one-sided eyelid drooping or a small pupil). These symptoms will not be present at other times. No other nervous system (neurologic) changes will be seen.
Tests, such as an MRI of the head, may be needed to rule out other causes of the headaches.
Treatment for cluster headaches involves:
Your doctor may recommend the following treatments for when the headaches occurs:
You may need more than one of these treatments to control your headache. Your doctor may have you try several medicines before deciding which works best for you.
Pain medicines and narcotics do not usually relieve cluster headache pain, because they take too long to work.
Surgical treatment may be recommended for you when all other treatments have failed. One such treatment is a neurostimulator. This device delivers tiny electrical signals to a certain nerve near the brain. Your doctor can tell you more about surgery.
Avoid smoking, alcohol use, certain foods, and other things that trigger your headaches. A headache diary can help you identify your headache triggers. When you get a headache, write down the following:
Review your diary with your doctor to identify triggers or a pattern to your headaches. This can help you and your doctor create a treatment plan. Knowing your triggers can help you avoid them.
The headaches may go away on their own or you may need treatment to prevent them. The following medicines may also be used to treat or prevent headache symptoms:
Cluster headaches are not life-threatening. They usually do not cause permanent changes to the brain. But they are chronic, and often painful enough to interfere with work and life.
Call 911 if:
Schedule an appointment or call your doctor if:
If you smoke, now is a good time to stop. Alcohol use and any foods that trigger a cluster headache may need to be avoided. Medicines may prevent cluster headaches in some cases.

- Description
From the Amogjar cap dolostone in West Africa.
This barite fan records barium sulfate remobilization that occurred during a rapid shift in oceanic chemical conditions. Barium sulfate is insoluble in oxygenated water, but under anoxic conditions it will dissolve in the manner seen here. PFH-1 records unusual oceanic chemical conditions and a short-lived chemical disturbance.
In terms of a Snowball Earth, barite mineral fans like this one are believed to have formed during the rapid deglaciation and hothouse aftermath of a Snowball event. PFH-1 is interpreted as having been deposited as anoxic oceans, created by ice cover that prevented mixing between the atmosphere and ocean water, once again became oxygenated with the resumption of the hydrologic cycle in the aftermath of a Snowball event.
Sample is 7.8 cm across at its widest point.

Charlton will expect to maintain their place at the peak of the League One table, while struggling Leyton Orient face a difficult task at Huddersfield.
Bournemth v Hartlepool
Bury v MK Dons
Carlisle v Stevenage
Charlton v Chesterfld
Colchester v Walsall
Huddersfld v Leyton Or
Notts Cnty v Rochdale
Oldham v Brentford
Preston v Tranmere
Scunthorpe v Yeovil
Sheff Wed v Exeter
Wycombe v Sheff Utd
Frontrunners Charlton will fancy their chances of three points to add to their 20 points from eight games, but Chesterfield will be buoyed by their 4-1 win over Carlisle last time out.
Fellow joint leaders Sheffield United face a trip to third-from-bottom Wycombe, while third-placed Huddersfield host struggling Leyton Orient.
Bury are hovering just above the relegation zone and will need a heroic result to remain afloat as they host fourth-placed MK Dons.
Fifth-placed Hartlepool make the long journey to Bournemouth, while Sheffield Wednesday have been hit and miss of late, but Gary Megson's men will be confident at home to Exeter.
Carlisle will hope for an improvement on last week's defeat at home to Stevenage, while Walsall could leapfrog Colchester with a win at the Community Stadium.
Elsewhere, Notts County will hope to add to Rochdale's record of three defeats in four away trips at Meadow Lane, while just two points separate the sides at Boundary Park, where Oldham welcome Brentford.
A win for Tranmere at Deepdale would see them leapfrog Preston and the same applies for Scunthorpe, who are within grasp of Saturday's opponent's Yeovil at Glanford Park.

By BILL LAMPTON and JIM BRAKSDALE
When Gov. Phil Bryant delivered his inaugural address, he pledged to work hard to build a Mississippi where every resident who wants a job can find a job. In order to attract new opportunities, Mississippi must position itself as a prime location for business and workforce development. To generate solid policies to help our state grow, Bryant created Mississippi Works – a diverse group of business leaders focused on increasing economic opportunities in Mississippi and crafting a long-range strategy for strengthening the state's business and workforce development efforts.
In collaboration with Bryant, members of the Mississippi Works Executive Committee have developed a policy agenda for the 2013 legislative session. We believe that these policies, if adopted, will bring new jobs to Mississippians and will equip our state with a more skilled workforce.
Chief among our proposals is stabilizing Mississippi's tax environment for small businesses. In his Executive Budget Recommendation, Bryant provided relief for small employers that are penalized by a state budget mechanism that requires them to pre-pay certain taxes. In 2007, the Legislature exempted many small businesses from this burdensome requirement but then suspended its own proposal. We urge lawmakers to finally enact the relief this year and provide Mississippi's small employers with a more secure environment for growth and job creation.
We must also take action to develop industries that are positioned for growth. We believe that private sector health care development can be a major economic driver and know there is a strong correlation between physician recruitment and economic development. Unfortunately, Mississippi has some of the most burdensome physician licensing requirements in the country; revising requirements will encourage physicians to relocate in Mississippi without affecting the standard of practice.
Further, Mississippi should draw more physicians to its most medically underserved areas, and Mississippi Works proposes enhancing the state's already successful rural physicians scholarship program. Providing an additional $5,000 per year to the current $30,000 per year scholarship program for doctors who commit to practice in rural areas and raising the scholarship recipient cap from 60 students to 65 students per year will create better health care access for Mississippians while boosting rural economies.
As Bryant has said, Mississippi must also focus on strategically developing its energy industry. Through our proposal for The Energy Sustainability and Development Act, the Mississippi Development Authority will work to promote Mississippi as a leader in energy development, job creation, and research. In addition, state agencies will be required to save tax payer dollars by adopting smarter energy management plans and sharing consumption data
Mississippi Works proposes harnessing energy-related opportunities by improving the Energy Infrastructure Revolving Loan Fund. Utilizing funds already authorized by the Legislature, this loan mechanism will aid local governments and utilities in constructing and upgrading energy infrastructure, enhancing Mississippi's ability to welcome new industry – even in very remote areas.
Mississippi should also continue to provide incentives to businesses when appropriate. By providing workable funding levels to proven programs managed by MDA, Mississippi will remain competitive with other states and can support expansion of existing businesses. Mississippi Works is also supportive of legislation that would require the State Bond Commission to approve any bonds that are considered state debt and listed in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Such oversight would protect the interests of the taxpayers whose money finances those bonds and would provide additional safeguards for Mississippi's financial stability.
Finally, we recommend further investment in Mississippi's most important asset: its workforce. In Mississippi, certain businesses that create jobs are eligible for incentive tax credits, and Mississippi Works supports offering workforce training funding in lieu of the tax credit to businesses that want to further educate and develop Mississippi workers. We believe that this effort, combined with the comprehensive reforms to public education that Governor Bryant and others will push for this legislative session, will set a path for developing the type of top-notch workforce that companies need.
We are excited about what the future holds for Mississippi. By adopting sound policies to guide our growth, we can ensure prosperity now and for the generations to come.
Bill Lampton is president of Asphalt Groups of Ergon, Inc. Jim Barksdale is chairman of the board and president of Barksdale Management Corporation. Gov. Bryant's Mississippi Works is an initiative focused on economic development. Barksdale and Lampton serve as Mississippi Works Executive Committee co-chairs. Citizens may contact them at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Enforcement Priority System (EPS) rates all incoming cases against objective criteria to determine whether they warrant use of the Commissions limited resources.
Cases dismissed under EPS fall into two categories: low-rated cases and stale cases. Low rated cases are those that do not warrant use of the Commissions resources to pursue because of their lower significance relative to other pending matters. Stale cases are those that initially received a higher rating but have remained unassigned for a significant period due to a lack of staff resources for effective investigation. Effective enforcement relies upon the timely pursuit of complaints and referrals to ensure compliance with the law. Investigations concerning activity more remote in time usually require a greater commitment of resources, primarily due to the fact that the evidence of such activity becomes more difficult to develop as it ages. The utility of commencing an investigation declines as these cases age, until they reach a point when activation of a case would not be an efficient use of the Commissions resources. As cases reach this point, they are recommended for dismissal.
This MUR disposition news release, and future disposition releases, will designate MURS dismissed for low ratings and staleness.

*There are four administrative stages to the FEC enforcement process:
1. Receipt of proper complaint 3. "Probable cause" stage
2. "Reason to believe" stage 4. Conciliation stage
It requires the votes of at least four of the six Commissioners to take any action. The FEC can close a case at any point after reviewing a complaint. If a violation is found and conciliation cannot be reached, then the FEC can institute a civil court action against a respondent.

A PRE-SCHOOL TEST FOR YOUWhich way is the bus below traveling?To the left or to the right?Can't make up your mind?Look carefully at the picture again.Still don't know?
Preschoolers all over the United Stateswere shown this picture and asked the same question.90% of the preschooler's gave this answer."The bus is traveling to the left."
When asked, "Why do you think the bus is traveling to the left?"
They answered:
"Because you can't see the door to get on the bus." How do you feel now ???I know, me too.Have a nice day!

- MARS NASA MSL Curiosity Rocknest Yellowknife Bay Mastcam Gale Crater
- Description
This is a view from MSL Curiosity's first science stop at "Rocknest" in the morning(s) of Sol(s) 64/66 towards the later stop Yellowknife Bay to the east - spanning a north to south arc with the true east is marked by the mast. Normal white balancing, slight enlargement and sharpening has been applied. Due to the high compression rates of the published "raw data" the far horizon and parts of the foreground gets pixelated - still waiting for the uncompressed image data to be released in the MSL Analyst notebook (PDS) later this year! :)

Hi Heather - Unfortunately we did not get to chose the rules for the contest - the Silhouette Company who provided the prize set the rules for us. A-M is exactly correct as to why they limited their contest to US citizens only - the shipping overseas would cost as much as the prize itself. When we create our own contests and challenges we try to think up prizes that don't need to be shipped (like things that can be mailed or sent digitally) to recognize the fact that we have customers all over the world. That's part of why we give away a lot of store gift certificates and such. I'm sorry you were not able to enter the Silhouette give away, but we have lots of other fun games and prizes being given out this week that you would be eligible for.
Seems to me you had the choice to participate or not. By offering the contest you agreed to snub some of your "membership". Sounds like a good way to lose them.
Posted 30 July 2013 - 08:03 AM
I really feel like Debbie was just trying to give someone the chance at a GREAT prize that they may not be able to afford, or have access to on their own. It was ever intended to hurt or make anyone feel excluded. Ya know?

I've seen Silhouette giveaways all over the internet, and ALL of them state they are open only to US residents.
I would suggest emailing Silhouette's customer support and suggesting they open promotional contests to people living in Canada!
oh and that is a great idea Tiza, surely postage isn't THAT much to Canada?? or they have a distributor there?

Putting it out there - yes I am Team and no, I have NO interest in winning a Silhouette. Furthermore I live in Australia. So not only do I not enter these competitions like the Silhouette one I also don't get to take part in the chats and games I might like to. But you know what? I joined SG knowing it was a US based company and I am very happy here. I take part when I can and I know some events are staged to help include us overseas members. I am assuming that Silhouette is also a US based company and I think it is a very generous offer to provide the amount of Silhouettes they have to SG via competitions and giveaways. As an Aussie I see all manner of things can't get shipped here, but I also see it in reverse - we have numbers of wonderful companies that you guys will never experience from sheer geography. I know it is little solace but I don't have a problem with not entering the contest, I am happy enough with what I CAN take part in and delighted living where I do, however, I do respect your opinion Heatheranne and I understand your point. Glad you felt strongly enough about SG to speak up.
I ditto everything Jody has said here, I too live in Australia and can't participate as much as I would like to due to time differences and the such, as well as being on Team which means I couldn't win the prizes anyway
I do absolutely LOVE it here, it has been my second home since 2006 and whilst I would love to participate more, I am so happy to be here, having met some of the most important people in my life and am thrilled for all my friends who are able to participate and win wonderful prizes.
As Jody says, Heatheranne, I respect what you say and am glad that you feel so strongly about us here at SG, I really hope that you will reconsider and continue to join with us in all that we love right here at SG

I don't know.... I like the idea of having Skytree, but at the same time, I feel, it would be too much for the line....
Skytree was one of my first thoughts when they said Diorama pieces!

I've just changed my profile picture because we got Geldor in MOTUC!
I don't know.... I like the idea of having Skytree, but at the same time, I feel, it would be too much for the line....
Nothing represents more the unexplainable vacuousness of the human race, than the unfounded and arrogant blind faith in the ruthless and narcissistic transcendence of itself.
You guys way behind. Sky tree was released with Fright Zone!
don't give up on Sky Tree. I think he is possible if MOTUC ever branches out into playsets. Sky Tree could double as a carry-case and also potentially, as part of a treehouse fortress playset building on the concept considerations from the Tomart article.
Grayskull needs its Cardboard Spacesuit MOTUCized
Voice your support in the Cardboard Spacesuit/Robot thread:
I would buy a Skytree figure. It would at least look cool with figures posed around him.
It's all about being polished when it counts!
Skytree has always been a favorite of mine!. I would definitely buy him. And, the some limbs could be articulated, maybe even two of the lower ones look like limb-arms with leaves et cetera flowing from them.

my sale page http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...d.php?t=205041
With Granamyr upcoming, I really want Skytree now! Procrutus is getting a figure, why not Skytree?
Skytree has to be really tall, so the only way I think they could do it right would need two SKUs: a starter SKU containing the face/root and the top pieces, and an additional "height builder" SKU with trunk expansions (stackable with themselves and with the root and top pieces). So that people would buy one starter set, and as many height expansion sets as their display and/or budget allows to make their Skytree reach for the sky. However, since apparently each SKU takes its own "development slot" (even though in this case it would be the same sculpt broken into separately-sold pieces), it would seem highly unlikely as a "normal schedule" item—so maybe they could do it as a "double" SDCC exclusive or something.

I'd get him, especially if he looked as colorful and gnarly as the mini-comic version.
It would have been neat if they made the box that Granamyr came in a diorama that folded out, kinda like the cityscape that came with Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. The diorama could have shown a panoramic forest and also folded up, vertically, to display Skytree.
Realistically, I don't see Skytree selling very well as a figure. He is just a tree, after all. Not very poseable. A colorful plastic diorama, maybe, but he would have to be HUGE. And even then, I still don't think it would sell, realistically.
Besides Skytree, there are other characters from that mini-comic that are possible; using the cat buck and make the Manticore, a Skeletor variant in his cloak disguise, a Crystal Man-At-Arms variant, or the Ice Hacker (a bear buck that can be reused later on Red Beast and the Purple shag Monster that fights He-Man (Oo-Larr) in the mini-comic).
Lots of possibilities.
Shoot, they could release Skytree in a big box packed with a bunch of the little guys: Loo-Kee, Montork, Kowl, Imp, Dree-Elle...
Then again, I'd love a set with Skytree and a manticore or Ice Hacker...
You know what would be a swell release? A snap together Skytree (about 12-18" tall could cut it, but the ability to add in more height via second sets without attaching the face); hollow inside, and here's the kicker! Pack the inside of the tree with all the spare heads we want!
Even if they're just repaints (blonde Teela up-do, red Teela hair-down, pink cosmic enforcer, white haired Randor, yellow-skinned BGEL, white-haired Marlena, blue vintage Mer-Man, acid-burn Keldor, red-bearded Stratos, Snake Mekaneck, younameit!).
Or maybe I'm just crazy.

Skytree would be awesome but would only work in the line as a large sculpted hollow collector case similar the old C3PO and Vader Star Wars cases - only larger and rounder. It could hold a limited number of figures inside and perhaps have a place for weapons as well.
Star Wars also did a large round spaceship as a collector case I had as a kid... I can't remember what it was called though.

text: This morning I had my secretary book a trip for myself and my family to Washington, DC to see the inauguration parade of the 45th President of the United States, Willard Mitt Romney. What a glorious January day that will be as the motorcade takes the savior of this great nation to his rightful spot at the White House. Got a room at the Hay Adams for the corporate rate of $800 a night. Gonna stay a full week and do the inauguration parade as well as a couple of Washington, DC tours. Kiddos will love that. Spent a little over $17,000 in total. No big deal, Mitt will help put it right back in my pocket soon enough and I'll figure out a way to write it off as a business expense when I get back and have a meeting with my Finance Director. Can't wait to get all of these great tax breaks over the next four years. Anyhoo, sucks for all of the poors in this country who will have to go back to work soon. Maybe when the economy rebounds I can expand my business and give a second chance to some of those unemployed goobers out there.

Washington County Courthouse Safety
Posted By News On @ 6:24 am In Today's Local News | Comments Disabled
With the shooting earlier this week at the courthouse in NewCastle County, Delaware, many local governments are examining their security procedures. Washington County Sheriff Jerry Dunbar spoke with KCII news about parameters in place at the Washington County Courthouse. Dunbar explained that Washington County has a Courthouse Safety Committee that includes County Attorney Larry Brock, the Clerk of Court, judges and himself. Dunbar said that ideally the Courthouse would have an officer present at all times as a sort of "check in point", however due to a cut in state funding that is not possible. Dunbar says that because officers have to go to the Courthouse several times per day for paperwork a uniformed officer will walk through to be seen. When court is in session officers are in close proximity. Dunbar also said that there are alarm buttons located throughout the building that alert the Safety Center to a threat resulting in a response from the nearest authorities. There are also evacuation plans in place for workers and courtroom evacuation plans in place for victims, defendants, jury or people attending the proceedings. Hear more about Washington County Courthouse Safety with Washington County Sheriff Jerry Dunbar during today's Washington Page.

Don't take medicines without consulting a doctor. Try to drink 10-12 glasses of water daily. Chew your food thoroughly before swallowing. Drink water after 45 minutes of eating food. Make a habit of walking for 20 minutes after eating, especially in the evening. Eat more fibre like whole wheat bread, oats, salads, green vegetables, almonds. Take 5 munakkas with warm milk in the night. These simple remedies will cure your constipation.

I am getting blood in my motion whenever I do it. Drops of blood keep dropping from my anus from past 4 days. Kindly advice me if this is serious. Thank you.
Aggravated Vata causes swelling of Hemorrhoids, a condition that is referred to as 'Raktarsh' (bleeding piles) in Ayurveda. Yes it should be treated serious ly as loss of blood may cause anaemia, weakness. Firstly your motion should not be constipated. You should take some warm water in a tub and add some haldi in it .sit in that tub for 10 mins daily. Avoid refined foods like jams, pastries, packaged, and canned foods. Also avoid tea, coffee, aerated drinks, and alcoholic beverages. Avoid pickles, potatoes, and root vegetables except radish and carrot. Avoid excessive fasting, overeating, eating during indigestion, and eating incompatible food. Increase the intake of whole-wheat flour, whole grains, brown rice, barley, legumes (lentils, beans, peas, chickpeas, soybeans, etc.), buttermilk, rock salt, Indian gooseberries (amla), green leafy vegetables, and foods that are rich in fiber. Eat more fruits including oranges, figs, strawberries, kiwis, bananas, pears, papayas, apples, grapes, and mangoes. Increase daily liquid consumption in the form of water, soup, juice, milk, buttermilk, etc. Have freshly-prepared warm food with a little purified butter added. Engage in light exercise like walking, yoga. Report after a week for medicines and more home remedies.

24 years old male from Kolkata asked
Doctor I addicted to chronic masturbation habit I can't control myself and can't stop it. What can I do please help me.
Reparenting Technique, BA, BEd
Psychologist, Bangalore
If you think you can't, you won't. Nothing is impossible to a determined mind. Everything can be lost to a loser's mind. Masturbation is not really bad; it is the addiction to it that is bad. Not even the number of years is a problem but the frequency and compulsiveness to do it is to be considered for its ill-effects. At your age you may feel it difficult and it can become addictive if you have alone time, if you obsess about it, and if you are not into relationships. The problem with addiction to this is that you may go on to prefer masturbation to heterosexual contact, even when you are married. That obviously would be an insult to your wife and will lead to a lot of conflict. Heterosexual contact is very wholesome and the physiology is made exactly for penile and vaginal contact. You will instead enjoy a poor replica of this and not know or care for the difference. The second thing that can happen with addiction is that it will become compulsive and will have no boundaries or limits, since it can be done all by yourself, whenever, wherever, and however too. The big problem a lot of children get into is the guilt around this. A useful way to discharge the energy is to get into contact games, or exercises, or even hobbies to channelize it. Also you should not spend too much time alone, and you need to keep your mind occupied with other interesting things and a lot of socializing. Even if you are not interested in marriage, for whatever reasons, it will help you to get into a friendship with a girl and enjoy the relationship where there will be a lot of excitement when you fall in love. Right now your hormones may be very active and your physiological apparatus is primed and ready for sexual stimulation. But because of your age and even otherwise it is important to develop good control and not feed into your impulses. Keeping yourself occupied and living a healthy social life are the keys to manage your sexual drives.

Depending upon sugar levels there are few foods that to be avoided by diabetic patients. If sugar levels are high avoid refined sugars like maida, sugar, high polished rice, fruits like mangoes, chickoo, banana. For heart health increase omega rich foods like fish, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, seasonal fruits, green tea etc. For detailed diet plan contact me.

BOONEVILLE – Northeast Mississippi Community College head baseball coach Kent Farris opened up the 2013 baseball signing period by inking New Hope High School standout pitcher Landon Boyd to his future roster.
Boyd signed with Farris today in front of a crowd of family, friends and teammates in the school's library, making him the first signee for the Northeast baseball program this year.
Boyd was coached by his older brother Lee Boyd at New Hope. During the 2011-12 season the Trojans went 25-9 overall and 7-2 in Division 2-5A play. The Trojans finished last year ranked eighteenth by MaxPreps.com.
"I am so excited to sign with Northeast," Boyd said. "It's going to be exciting. I know Coach Farris really well and I am looking forward to playing for him."
Boyd had a 2.23 earned run average his junior season and was 8-3 on the mound in 13 appearances while clocking 72.1 innings. He pitched four complete games and limited the opposition to just 36 runs (23 earned) while striking out 79. He recorded 11-strikeout games twice; once against West Point on March 27 and against Starkville in a 4-0 win on May 4, 2012.
"Northeast is a good program," explained New Hope High School head coach (Lee) Boyd. "I think he is going to do a great job at Northeast. He has done a great job here for us in high school and I am proud for him as a brother and as a coach for him to move on."
Boyd held the opposition to a .201 batting average while hitting .233 from the plate with a .317 on base percentage with 21 hits and 13 runs batted in.
"He is just another great player from a quality school and was coached by a exceptional coach," Farris added. "We got just what we needed on the opening day of signing with a pitcher and he will definitely be an asset to our program."

SoundMaster Stix ST-305
When the BOSS DR-55 appeared, it was the first affordable drum machine featuring programmable patterns rather than presets. It soon had a competitor in the form of the SoundMaster SR-88, which was so similar in appearance and sound to the DR-55 that it might make you wonder why Roland didn't sue SoundMaster out of existence. Roland clearly didn't, as the SR-88 was followed by the ST-305 "Stix". In terms of features and sophistication the Stix is somewhere between the BOSS DR-55 and Roland TR-606, with programming like the DR-55 and individual volume controls for each instrument like the TR-606. While it was soon eclipsed by the TR-606, which featured a higher number of patterns and the ability to chain them together into songs, the Stix does offer individual audio outputs for each sound. There is also a trigger input and two trigger outputs - one a constant clock pulse and the other programmable via the accent.
The sounds on the Stix are limited to kick, snare, high tom, low tom, closed high hat, open high hat and cymbal. There is also the accent, which has its own level control and affects all instruments on each beat it is applied to. Patterns are limited to six with sixteen steps per bar, and two with twelve steps per bar. Each pattern can be programmed as a single two bar pattern (A and B) or as two one bar patterns (A or B). In addition to playing one bar repeatedly or both in succession, there's also a "fill in" mode, where bar A plays repeatedly until bar B plays once at the end of every four, eight or sixteen bars.
Overall the Stix is a fun machine despite its limitations. It has a subtly different character to the contemporary Roland TR-606 and Korg KPR-77, while also benefiting from separate audio outputs as standard. It's unlikely that anyone has used the Stix on a really famous recording, but the cheap price of the SoundMaster drum machines probably means that many electronic musicians learnt their craft on one!

text: "Noisy Breathing" is synonymous with obstructed breathing. Bulldogs, Pugs, Pekingese, and breeds with "pushed-in" faces show some degree of airway obstruction. Mouth breathing, snorting and snoring. The difficulties are more pronounced during exercise and when the dog is hot. In some cases the mouth breathing may be associated with collapsed nostrils.
