I've been around yeah but my posting is being stunted because i'm active elsewhere on other forums. I've been cured of my star wars fetish and it's now simply one more area of interest. You're more likely to find me in the Muppets figures thread.
Did you guys ever get the Judderman adverts for Metz in the US? This is me and Jo (i'm the Judderman, she's The Crow).
Nice costume Jeddah!
BAD needs: HK-50 torso, right arm and head
YVH-1 head
Trusty traders / buyers/ sellers: Tycho, SK99, DarthChuckMC, minirock(X2), Lman316, Turbowars
That's one of the most frightening things that I've ever seen.
No, we don't have those commercials over here ... not that I know of. I've read about them now and know what they are and all I can think is that they'd give me nightmares ... or drive me to drink (some more.) We do have a similarly creepy telephone commercial over here. It features the comedian "Carrot Top" ... now that guy is creepy.
Thanks, please remember it is a costume and required a lot of make over to hide my refined looksOriginally Posted by plasticfetish
Carrot Top: He got great bone structure though. Here's a link to the Judderman advert
uhhhhh.... i don't think i ever want to see that commercial again, much less drink metz shnapps and get the "judders"
Nachos are the right of all sentient beings.
The guns... They've stopped!

(yes, I'd guessed it was a costume. I'd hoped.)
Ah, ah, ah ... thank you, very cool. I was looking for something like that.Originally Posted by jeddah
Yes, that's a clever commercial. I like the creepy penny arcade look. No we'd never see anything like that in this country ... puppets don't sell things here, they run for office.
Hmm ... checking the morning news and Carrot Top is on delivering his own special brand of prop comedy. Weird coincidence.
I sort of assumed his bones had been restructured just a little. (eh.)
Judders ... "DTs" ... what's the diff?Originally Posted by darthvyn

It weighs as much as the penny in your pocket, can raise its heart rate to 1,250 beats a minute, and may fly more than 1,000 miles -- at night and without a map -- to reach your backyard feeder. What is it? A hummingbird.
Thousands upon thousands of these smallest of birds migrate to the United States each spring from winter grounds in Mexico and Central America. They expend as much energy, it is said, as a human running a 4-minute mile, 1,200 times in a row, without stopping. And after a couple of months of hurried mating, young-raising, and fattening up (to the weight of two pennies!), they will hit the road -- or the sky -- again.
Many of the tiny Ruby-throated Hummingbirds that frequent our backyard gardens have made a 24-hour, 600-mile flight across the Gulf of Mexico before dispersing across the East. Why would they do such a thing? They can't help it! Birds are internally wired to fly where they are supposed to fly at the time they are supposed to go. Bird banders have found that migrating hummingbirds are faithful not only to their route but also to their schedule, very often showing up at the exact same place on the exact same day, year after year!

gEDA, GSoC, and BarCamp Boston 4
Regretfully, the gEDA project was not accepted into GSoC 2009. Maybe next year. Many thanks for Stuart Brorson for doing all the admin leg work again this year.
Either way, gEDA development continues, slowly. I have a whole slew of projects/tasks that I really ought to find some time to work on. Although some of my free time is spent working on non-gEDA free software.
I am looking forward to attending BarCamp Boston 4 in 10 days. :)

Win tickets to the Country Fair
11 April 2013 , 6:07 PM by Kim Lester
Roll up, roll up the National Museum of Australia is hosting a 1913-style country fair and we have a family pass to get you there.
It's on Saturday from midday to 6pm and it's part of the museum's Glorious Days exhibition, a celebration of Australia 100 years ago.
The Country Fair will feature market stalls, craft demonstrations, circus performers, a petting zoo and performances from the Tango Social Club of Canberra, The Royal Australian Navy Band and barbershop choir The Canberra Chordsmen.
The winner will give a review of the event on Monday's afternoon's Drive program.
To win all you have to do is call Adam after 3pm on Friday 12 April and tell him what is on the feet of the woman (pictured left) featured on the Glorious Days exhibition poster. It's that simple.
Just call 1300 681 666 after 3pm and listen to the program for a live performance by the Canberra Chordsmen.

Indian Trail nuisance home may get boarded up
A court will soon decide if a nuisance home in the Indian Trail neighborhood should be boarded up.
On Tuesday, the City of Spokane will request a home on 10100 block of North Seminole be boarded up for at least a year.
In January, police raided the home and arrested owner, 67-year old Marcy Pratt and six others. Inside, police found meth and drug paraphernalia. Marcy denies all the allegations.
Her husband, Joe, is now left picking up the pieces of what was supposed to be their dream home.
"All I wanted was to have a happy life and I did for awhile," Joe Pratt said.
For the past year Joe Pratt has been in a nursing home. He said he wanted to come home but Marcy urged him to stay.
"And one day she says 'I want a young man, you're too old,'" he added.
According to police reports, a few months later, the home became a magnet for violence and drugs.
"She started having wild parties," Joe said.
On Saturday, police and the city attorney allowed Joe to go inside his home to collect his valuables.
His divorce attorney, Karen Schweigert, and other volunteers helped Joe go through the house and pack up a moving truck.
"It is just an absolute nightmare in there," Karen Schweigert said.
"It's been picked over, there is rodent infestation, the piping was removed- probably sold for drugs," she added.
Schweigert said it's hard to believe what Joe's been through.
"It's horrible. It is absolutely unconscionable. Somebody who works all their life, serves his country, goes on starts a business, has a successful business, saves for retirement,buys a beautiful house in a wonderful neighborhood. And then his wife develops an addiction and brings in drug related activity. It's not fair," Schweigert said
- I-90 closed at Vantage Bridge due to crash
- What's considered low-income in Spokane?
- Former WSU student sentenced to 12 years for drugs
- CDA students fuse technology, creativity and garner international attention
- Carlyle to stop providing assisted living housing in October

Got a question for Hasbro? Ask it here!
My Photos and Reviews: SSG Toy Guide
My Star Wars Fan Film: The Lazy Jedi
Now that I see the nose art, I am on the fence about this new Republic gunship. I like the unique nose art, but I have *WAY* too much already and I only have 2 nephews and they already have tons of stuff as it is, so unless I can liquidate some of it (heck, for the right price, I would pack it up and dleiver it across town myself...), I may have to pass.
[FONT=Courier New]"First of all, never bad mouth synergy..."[/FONT]
[FONT=Courier New]"First of all, never bad mouth synergy..."[/FONT]
I just saw that the MSRP on it is $119.99 - I will definitely not be buying this one. If I recall correctly, the original gunship was ~$30. I think the price when I bought the Lucky Lekku was ~$50. I know there's been a couple of minor changes to the mold and that inflation happens, but holy smokes!
2002, "Saga" - $40
2003, Clone Wars - Command Gunship - $30
2005, Revenge of the Sith - $30
2006, The Saga Collection - Clone Wars micro-series (Toys R Us exclusive) - $45
2008, The Clone Wars - Lucky Lekku (Walmart exclusive) - $50
2009, The Clone Wars - Crumb Bomber (Toys R Us exclusive) - $70
2013, The Vintage Collection - Toys R Us exclusive - $120
The 2009 ship was the first to include changes aside from paint, introducing the longer doors, doors for the forward opening, and spin-out rocket launchers on top. The 2009 Geonosis Assault battle pack included one gunner pod and two Clone Pilot figures for $22, so two of them would be $44. The 2013 TVC ship ignores the 2009 version and goes back to the original version of the ship, for the first time adding three pack-in figures and two gunner pods. Everyone already has the 2002 Yoda and Clone Pilot and 2003 Clone Trooper, so while they're preferable to the Saga Legends style of figures, they're certainly not exciting and they weren't worth more than $5-$7 when they were first released. So if $44 got you two pods and four figures, and here the ship is adding two pods and three figures, it wouldn't bring it up more than $40; then again, these figures are equal to or better than the Movie Heroes line from last year, in which figures were $10. TRU and/or Hasbro probably saw that their last gunship was $70, this new one was adding at least $40 worth of stuff, and hell, might as well jack it up a little more.
TRU runs sales all the time and often mark down things like this, so it's very likely it will be available for less than $120. Even if that's not the case, the starting point is way too high.
Anyway, remember the days when reissuing items meant they would be cheaper? Sigh...

Constitutional scholar to speak on 'The New Originalism,' Sept. 19
Posted September 17, 2002; 04:50 p.m.
Fleming, professor of law at Fordham University, will speak Thursday, Sept. 19, about a theory of constitutional interpretation that is the subject of much debate among legal scholars and Supreme Court watchers.
He will discuss "The New Originalism" at 4:30 p.m. in 008 Friend Center. The event will inaugurate this year's Alpheus Mason Lectures in Constitutional Law and Political Thought sponsored by the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions . It will be followed by a reception.
Originalism holds that the proper way to interpret the constitution is to construe its provisions in light of what its framers were trying to achieve. It is an approach that requires legal scholars and judges to have a firm grasp of the contexts in which provisions of the constitution were enacted and of American history generally. Its most prominent proponent is U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
Fleming is a co-author with Walter Murphy and Sotorios Barber of the textbook, "American Constitutional Interpretation." A graduate of Harvard Law School, he earned his Ph.D. in politics from Princeton in 1988. His forthcoming book is titled "Securing Constitutional Democracy."

With the onset of Israel joining the fold in banning underweight models, we here at Heavy thought it might be time to join in the celebration of all things curvy and sexy with a top 5 of our favorite curvaceous vixens.
5. Robyn Lawley

An Australia-native, Robyn Lawley is best known for being the first plus-size model to be in a Ralph Lauren campaign. On top of that, she is also the first plus-size model to appear in Australia Vogue in over fifty years. And while I've never set foot in Australia, I wouldn't mind Robyn being the first to show me around Down Under. All joking aside, be on the lookout for her latest endeavor – modeling lingerie for luxury brands. I know I will.
4. Lucy Pinder

All the way from jolly ol' England, Lucy is one of those "discovered" stories after being spotted sunbathing on a beach by a photographer. Soon after she was signed to a top modeling agency and was appearing in the likes of Maxim, Nuts, advertisements for PlayStation…and my desktop wallpaper. Her and her curves also graced us on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK in 2009.

Crystal Renn is our American Southern Belle. Discovered in Mississippi at the age of 14, she's had a long career and has been on and off with "the curves." Recently she has been "on" with them, joining the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition canon in 2012. And she's not just a pretty face – her annual income is in the six figure range. Sugar mama?

A newcomer to the model scene, Briana was only discovered last summer. Soon after she became the lucky winner to become the face (and body) of the Kardashian sisters' new plus-size collection "Kardashian Kurves." Representing the brand name perfectly with a gorgeous smiling and glowing skin, if it's promoted like any other Kardashian project in the past, expect to see this sexy lady everywhere.

Good news! The girl next door fantasy that appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated 2013 is single as of yesterday – or so she claims. Regardless, you don't need to be an MLB star to ogle over this beauty – you just need the internet. Hailing from Michigan but raised in Florida, Kate's career has exploded in the past year. Featured on the Maxim's HOT 100 in 2012 and placing third in AskMen's Top 99 Women for 2013 (only behind Jennifer Lawrence and Mila Kunis), she's definitely one to watch. And she's only twenty.

U.S. regulatory czar nominee wants Net Fairness Doctrine
Posted on April 28th, 2009 by David-Crockett
Cass Sunstein sees Web as anti-democratic, proposed 24-hour delay on
sending e-mail
WASHINGTON Barack Obamas nominee for regulatory czar has advocated
a Fairness Doctrine for the Internet that would require opposing
opinions be linked and also has suggested angry e-mails should be
prevented from being sent by technology that would require a 24-hour
cooling off period....
Sunsteins nomination to the powerful new position will require Senate
approval. He is almost certain to face other questions about his
well-documented controversial views:
* In a 2007 speech at Harvard he called for banning hunting in the U.S.
* In his book Radicals in Robes, he wrote: [A]lmost all gun
control legislation is constitutionally fine. And if the Court is right,
then fundamentalism does not justify the view that the Second Amendment
protects an individual right to bear arms.
* In his 2004 book, Animal Rights, he wrote: Animals should be
permitted to bring suit, with human beings as their representatives
* In Animal Rights: A Very Short Primer, he wrote [T]here should
be extensive regulation of the use of animals in entertainment, in
scientific experiments, and in agriculture....

SouthEast LinuxFest: Growth is a good thing
The first thing I noticed Saturday morning was that, in its second year, SouthEast LinuxFest has significant growth. Last year, there were enough booths for a single public space in a student union; this year, booth space was expanded to nearly every hallway used by SELF. I was amazed.
Hats off to the entire SELF team, especially David Nalley, the go-to guy for Fedora contributors by default, and Jeremy Sands, the speaker coordinator. Everybody did an amazing job at making the conference run very smoothly, all things considered. :)
Max and I drove down Friday morning to make it in time for a Docs/wiki hackfest. When I got there, we were talking about the main [[Docs Project]] wiki page; when we were done, we had reworked the join process for Docs. (Or, at least that's what I can remember doing.)
After the speaker dinner that evening, Michael DeHaan and I skipped on the loud music party and went to go take pictures of Spartanburg. I got some interesting ones:
Saturday I went to go see a couple talks and gave one of my own on the datanommer project. About half the people were Red Hat/Fedora people, which is fine, but the other half were people who I had not seen before. That's good — somebody outside of Fedora is interested. That's pretty much the whole point on presenting it outside of a FUDCon. ;)
On Sunday, we had FAD @ SELF, and I think we got a few new people interested in contributing back to Fedora. Awesome!
Overall, I think it was a good weekend, and I'll be waiting for SELF next year. :)

|For Sale by Owner Non-commercial items for sale!
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|The Marquis Salmon No. 3 is sold.
spey tackle for sale
Two rods:
No. 1: Orvis, 13.5', 3 pc., 9 1/4 oz., #10 line - I believe when this rod was offered it was considered to be an 'overhead' rod. I cast it earlier this week (as a final handshake) with an Airflo Long Delta 9/10 (with tips). What a difference to my memories of fishing it with a DT10 floater and a Teeny 400. Handles the line beautifully. Asking $275
No. 2: Bruce and Walker, 17.5', 4 pc., lines 9-11 - This rod is also labeled "Carbon" and is the 'Walker' model. B&W used to make the same length rod/configuratiuon in two flex profiles, the 'Walker' being the faster profile and the 'Bruce' a more traditional action. All pieces are not the same length - the butt is much shorter - everything is original. It was used with a 10/11 Accelerator with tips and is a real cannon. When I stopped using it, my chiropractor missed me. Asking $375
Two reels:
No 1: Hardy Marquis Salmon No. 3 with Cortland DT10 floater. There is a little finish off the backside of the frame, otherwise it is very good. Asking $240
No 2: Hardy Marquis No. 2. Condition is the same - a little finish rubbed off, otherwise very good. Asking $240
Both rods have their original bags and cases. The B&W tube is PVC which is the way they came. The reels are in the original blue vinyl cases.
You can contact me with questions or offers at email@example.com
Payment will be by bank draft or certified check - please!
I can package them well for UPS insured collect delivery.

Long while of not posting. Nothing (much) programming- related to mention, but...
New job. Turns out I am not emigrating right at the moment (bit of a last-minute surprise, there, as it happens). New employer seems to be a sensible multi-national corp, though.
Managed to score a (small) writing contract. That reminds me, need to poke the editor-in-chief that I haven't seen the paper copies of the contract yet. The task is to write an article about the BESK machine, a piece of hardware I have only seen the console of, but it is nonetheless a machine that warms the cockles of my heart.
Also noticed that there's been a bit of movement in the SHA1-cracking. Apparently Amazon EC2 GPU instances are real good for SHA1-based password hashes. I don't know, exactly, what this means for SHA1-based HMACs, but I am pretty sure it's not entirely pleasant. So, need to go back to the drawing board and switch out SHA1 and switch in something else for NOCtool's network protocol.

I'm one of those guys that should have died a long time ago but for some strange reason I'm still alive. I believe I've been given a... fourth chance in life and now I'm part of a family that counts five members: Me, my wife my twin sons and my daughter.
I own a "liqueur store" with my brother and my brother in law and we have to work day to night six days a week in order to make it through the so called "economic crises" in Greece. The spare time we got in our hands is almost non existent (work-family) but we manage to keep alive our rock band by doing one rehearsal per week if we're lucky and one live performance per month. "Sun, rain in life", our band, is a dream that managed to keep us together through some very rough times. We love our songs, even though we have recorded 18 out of 150+ songs since 1995 due to poor management. Here's the link for anyone who's interested to listen to our beautiful yet poor produced/recorded sound: https://www.facebook.com/sunraininlife
Part II (gaming)
Games is all I ever known since I was a little kid. During my kindergarten years, my father brought home an Atari console. Until this day I believe this was a "fatal error". You see "Asteroids" and "Space invaders" introduced me in a world that kept me away from real life for many, many many years. Atari changed to Amstrad, Amstrad changed to IBM PC, IBM PC changed to Amiga 500 and Amiga 500 changed to Pentium and so on so forth, coin ops were my "night out" through whole summers and every time I happened to revisit the real world I found it to be bitter and cruel for my "made up-iconic" taste.
Part III (dreams)
After all those years of gaming experience, I should have become a programmer or a developer of some sort. Unfortunately I couldn't follow school and today this is something I truly regret. I admire the whole developer's "brunch" of the gaming industry and I would like to get involved, yet my knowledge is somewhat poor to actually be able to contribute in coding or any of the "rough stuff". So, the only thing I'm left with is dreams. Actually living and re-living a dream. A dream of making my own games and how great they would have been. No matter how hard I try to "shake them off me" they always come after me and haunt me like ghosts...
Blathering conclusion
...So, here I am, in the developers forums, doomed to be mocked at or at least test your patience to the extreme. It's funny to have conscience of what's going on with you and not be able to shake your head up, awake and have peace with your reality, after all this is what I wand... this is what my wife and three kids want..

Thanks for the heads-up. Found the latest CW and Legacy at Kingstowne. Walmart is the place to be.

Unless you get there a few hours too late. Still, it's nice to see people posting here again.
Hasbro's distro. system is REALLY messed up this time around. I think there's more goin' on than them playing catch-up. I see weak sections on all their product, including JOE & Wolverine, etc.
"In my experience there's no such thing as luck."
I also found the ESB wave, at the WM just outside of the District off the BW Parkway (can't remember the name of the city) yesterday. Looks like it was just the one case though. It had the bearded Hoth trooper with cloth skirt and blue Ugnaught.
Aside from comic packs I haven't seen consistent replenishment of GI Joe stuff since around christmas. Occasionally TRU or target may get a case, but it seems like WM either quit carrying it, or hasn't gotten any in.
Is anyone buying the Wolverine figures? The pegs look pretty much the way they did when they were stocked. It looked like Star Trek sold well for about a week. By then all the Trekkies had 1 of each and the pegs have been holding steady.
KH, anything to be found in C-burg? I'll be coming through Sunday sometime.
Yes, Cburg has all the ESB wave at WM.

Found Rebel trooper and Ugnaught at WM in Frederick. I picked up 2 hoth troopers, one had the champagne part, the other had the silver. The ugnught had silver. The only other figure from the wave they had was the Emperor. A friend had already picked up the rest of the wave for me though.

My Bio
A little about who I am, I'm 78 years old,retired live alome, in a small but a very comfortable apartment (At times I wish it was a little bigger,need moe fly time space)
I live about 8 miles North of Saybrook Point in Chester Ct,on the Connecticut river.
As probably a lot of you alteady know, I no longer can fish off the Jetty's or the shore line, even have trouble climbing into boats, because I have what is called thr Post Polio Syndromes, in the past 7 years it has constanly progreasd to a point where now I have to rely on mechanical equipment such as Electric Scooters, Jazzy's, Walkers , for locomotion, with a very few exceptions , I am able to fish from areas that have handicap accessable Docks or Piers.
I will show you in one of my pictures with me fishing for White Perch, Snapper Blues, and I do a lot of Crabbing using chicken Wing baited Box Traps, and I do have some pretty favarable reasults.
To maintain my sanity, when there are days that I can't get out because of inclement weather, I tie a lot of flies, make Shadow Box Fly frames, with flies that I tied in them.
A friend of mine and me make fly tying items , like Flash Material Hangers, Tying Thread Racks, and Color Marker Caddies, that I would post a picture of if there is any interest in seeing them.
But the highlight of my day is to view the posts that are submitted by members of this remarkable and informative website, I spent hours perusing, and reading the interesting information and messages that are posted, I look forward to this part daily, especialy the FLY TALk

Betty Crocker's Diabetes Cookbook shares a recipe! Looking for a low-fat treat? Here's a keeper.
Not only are oats 100 percent whole grain and a great source of fiber, they also add a nutty flavor and texture to many baked goods. Oats also contain soluble fiber, which can help lower cholesterol.
If you're using frozen (thawed) blueberries, be sure to drain them on a paper towel to soak up all the extra juice.
Enjoy a slice of this scrumptious bread with a hard-cooked egg for a hearty breakfast. If your meal plan allows 3 or more Carbohydrate Choices, pour a glass of juice or opt for a fresh orange.

Here are some things going on this morning in your world of tech:
Shares of Nvidia (NVDA) are up 13 cents, or 0.8%, at $15.80, after the company last night unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) the latest version of its "Tegra" family of application processors, the "Tegra K1," and said a version coming later this year will include technology for 64-bit computing called "Denver" that has been a long time coming for the company.
Raymond James's Hans Mosesmann reiterated a Strong Buy rating on the shares, writing that the inclusion of Denver was a surprise for most investors (he was expecting it in 2015), but that the real point of the presentations is that K1 should be a video game powerhouse on a mobile device: "Fundamentally, Nvidia's pull-in of a Kepler based 64-bit SoC (systems on chip) is more about the game changing disruption of bringing PC/game console hardware to the mobile space."
"Epic Games decision to support Unreal Engine 4 on the K-1 (DX 11.1) opens the door for massive game development on the K-1 roadmap."
Speaking of chips, shares of Qualcomm (QCOM) are up a penny at $72.90, after the company announced a new high-def video processor for connected television sets and other media players, and said its Snapdragon processors were upgraded to bring greater connectivity to in-vehicle automotive applications. Qualcomm COO and CEO designate Steve Mollenkpof will host a Q&A with reporters this afternoon at CES at 3 pm Eastern time.
Shares of Pandora (P) are $2.28, over 8%, at $29.87, after the company this morning reported its "listener hours" in December rose 13%, year over year, to 1.58 billion, while its share of U.S. Radio listening hours was 8.6%, up from 7.6%.
Susquehanna Financial Group's Brian Nowack reiterates a positive view on the stock, writing that "The holiday season is typically the strongest time of year for Pandora user growth, and this year was no different even with iRadio in the market (for 3.5 months now) and Spotify announcing and promoting new competitive mobile offerings (on December 11)."
"We intend to continue to monitor Spotify's mobile progress, but in our view, Pandora's solid December user growth speaks again to its user stickiness (keeping new users even as Spotify announces new products) and brand equity (to attract new users to the platform)."
Shares of Twitter (TWTR) are down $4.58, or almost 7%, at $64.14, after Morgan Stanley's Scott Devitt wrote that the stock's 50% rise since its IPO in November was baking in certainty of success that was anything but certain.
"While we would feel comfortable with Twitter's risk/reward closer to our $33 price target, at current levels we prefer to own Facebook (FB) (5X users, 3X revenue per user, 1/2 the multiple) and Google (GOOG) (16X FCF with a core search revenue CAGR of ~15%)," wrote Devitt.
Google shares are up $9.75, or 0.9%, at $1,114.75, while Facebook stock is up 23 cents, or half a percent, at $54.79.
In advance of Samsung Electronics's (005930KS) press conference at CES, which happens later this afternoon at 5 pm, Eastern, Susquehanna's Mehdi Hosseini reiterates a "Positive" view on the stock, but warns that his "checks" suggest weakness that popped up for Samsung with its flagship Galaxy S4 handset in December is persisting into this year.
"Recent checks among the Samsung manufacturing ecosystem partners suggest weak demand for GS4 (Samsung's high end smart phone flagship) led to across the board cuts in component build out late in December," writes Hosseini.
"Although we lowered our estimates on December 12 due to F/X and weak System LSI, we now believe the full impact of the weak GS4 demand in the latter part of 4Q may have not been fully dialed into our estimates."
Shares of Samsung today rose ₩11,000, or 0.9%, to ₩1,307,000 in Seoul trading.

THEY tell us, don't they, that one of the mercifullest dispensations of Providence is our facility for forgetting—the ease and quickness with which we get over things? To me it seems that what points the sting of every grief, is the thought that a time will come when we shall grieve no more. It is terrible enough, God wot, for a person to drop out of our lives; but to drop out of our hearts too. Ah, poor dead ones! is not that hard?
As long as their memory is with us fresh and green—as long as it lives with us, as they themselves lived with us, coming in and going out, in the house and in the street, in talk and in silence, on Sundays and on week‐days—so long do we seem to page: 195 keep a little portion of them with us; they do not seem quite gone away from us.
But the same thing happened to us all. Strive and resolve as we may to keep our sorrow fresh and new and glossy, it is all to no purpose; it grows insensibly old and stale and shabby, like the crape round our hats. Have not you, oh friends, before now, seeing some acquaintance who had just issued out of great tribulation, laughing and talking, apparently unchanged—have not you said within yourself—how unfeeling he is! how different I should be!
And lo! the apple of your eye is taken away from you, and in a week or two you also are laughing and talking—the river of your life flows on smooth, unruffled, as if that new‐made grave were razed out of creation.
"Out of sight, out of mind," is true to a certain extent of all of us. We cannot be always thinking of what we never see: that is the very thing that makes it so difficult for us to rest our minds on heaven, and heaven's high King; we cannot see page: 196 them, and so we but feebly, transiently realize them.
The people we see, who talk to us, and we to them, whom we can hear and touch and feel, gradually fill more and more of that vacant space: the overpowering force of time saps our woes, as a little wave, plashing through long aeons, wears and hollows at last the great granite rock.
But oh! we don't forget, really! I don't mean you to think that. The wound heals over slightly; we could not all walk about with great gaping gashes, could we? The world's work could not get done if we did; but beneath the surface that looks all fair and even, there is a great dull ache going on always—an ache that takes the taste out of our life's savoury meats, and makes us call our short day all too long.
A month has gone by—a wintry, sleety, dreary month. People have got tired of talking of Sir Hugh Lancaster's wedding, and Sir Adrian Lestrange's death. Other men and women have been wed and died since; and new subjects have supplanted those two, which were of intensest interest page: 197 to but one or at most two people. And there has been a sale at Lestrange; the old oak chairs and tables have been knocked down to the highest bidder; scattered among the neighbouring sons of Manchester and Liverpool: and the old rooms look strange and piteous and unfurnished without them.
And greasy Jews—the offscouring of the earth—(my one point of sympathy with the moyen âge barbarians is their loathing and maltreatment of the accursed Israelitish dog)—have been prowling about, trading, as is their wont, on the miseries and weaknesses of poor humanity. And Hugh, good old fellow, has bought the old leathern arm‐chair for me: I am sitting in it now; I hope I shall die in it.
I have been transplanted from Lestrange to Wentworth, and the transplantation has not killed me. I am a hardier plant than I thought I was. I don't cry all day, by any means, and I laugh now and then when anything in my husband or his belongings strikes me page: 198 in a ridiculous light, which is not seldom. I am hungry and eat, I sleep sound, I still have likes and dislikes, I make jokes occasionally; I squabble about every two days with my mamma‐in‐law, when she tries to give me lectures on deportment, and le bon Dieu, still gives me energy to snub Hugh as seemeth good unto me. Do you suppose from this that I accepted my fate meekly, that I was beginning to get reconciled to it? Not I!
My father's death I should have got over in time perhaps: it is natural that parents should go before their children, and I might have got to think of him without torture, with a gentle eternal regret and "sehnung," as the Germans say. I doubt even that; doubt my ever forgetting my old dad even if I had had Dick to kiss away my tears, and supply the place of all other loves by his great passionate one. Now that the first éclat and excitement of my sacrifice were over—now that I knew for certain that I had slain myself in vain, knew that he page: 199 for whom I had been offered up was sleeping with his fathers beneath the chancel of Lestrange, never to be wakened by my loudest, piercingest cries, then my misery rose up before me, huge, unnatural, gigantic; terribler "than ever woman wore." I was like Jonah when his gourd died down. I said, "I do well to be angry, even unto death." "Why," I cried, "was I to be picked out from among all women, to be pre‐eminently wretched?"
The little worthless earthenware pitcher, picked a quarrel with the potter who framed it. I did not love Hugh one bit; it is not easy to love two men at once; to tell you the truth, I did not try much, sometimes I loathed him. And yet he was very good to me, as good as could be. I verily believe that he loved me as much as he could love any created thing; it was not his fault, poor fellow, that he was not made of the finest porcelain, but was only good, useful, ugly Delf. He was not to blame that Providence had made him a little, dark, middle‐aged page: 200 baronet, instead of a great beautiful fair dragoon.
I am sure that he appreciated my varied excellences, and even ruggednesses, as much as man could; and was fully alive to the advantage he had gained in having a pretty young white face opposite to him every day at dinner, instead of an old yellow ugly one. He was a most loving husband; horribly, needlessly, irksomely loving, I said to myself. One has not much power of simulation or dissimulation at nineteen; but I did my best to hide my disrelish for my lord, and to receive his blandishments with as good a grace as I could.
I was his chattel as much as his pet lean‐headed bay mare, and I felt that he had justice on his side. If he might not insinuate his arm round my waist, round whose waist might he? Sometimes I will confess to you that I wished he would transfer his amities to some other person, even if it were the cook. I'm sure I should not have been jealous. All Sir Hugh's other servants, if they page: 201 disliked their situations, or got tired of them, might give warning and leave; but I, however wearied I might get of mine, could never give warning, could never leave. I was a fixture for life. So I said to myself sometimes, and ground my teeth, and snarled like a caged tiger.
I had indulged a mild vague hope that the very words of the marriage ceremony read over me, would have a cabalistic charm to prevent my ever thinking of any man but Sir Hugh, after we were man and wife. I had heard that only very bad wicked women ever cared for anybody but their husbands after they were married, and I hoped I was not a very bad wicked woman.
However, I discovered pretty soon with some chagrin that I must reckon myself among that naughty band; that I was not one of those "who love their lords;" not "a matron of Cornelia's mien." I found that I thought of Dick infinitely more; more regretfully, passionately, longingly, now that I was Lady Lancaster, page: 202 and it was criminal of me so to think, than then I had done as Nelly Lestrange, when it was only unwise and unworldly. Nor was this mere womanly perversity, hankering after the unattainable; nor did it spring from any idea that it was rather fine to be immoral. I thought of him because I had nothing else pleasant to think of. The one person who had ever halved my heart with him was gone from me.
I hated to think of my father, not having that living faith accorded to some, which enables them to say from their hearts, that their dead ones are "not dead but gone before." My father was dead to me, dead as the old dog who died the other day licking my hand. I knew I never should see him again.
How did I know whither he was gone; how did I know whether he had gone to any good place; and if he had, what right had I to think that I should ever rejoin him there? I did not believe in any heaven with sufficient strength to make me strive very strenuously to attain it.page: 203
Life seemed to me a great vast chaos, through which men stumbled and tottered to a big black pit at the end. So I thought on the forbidden theme all the day, and sometimes all the night; and truly there was not much at Wentworth to distract my thoughts. A lap‐dog would have thought my existence paradise; for I had plenty of the best to eat, and big fires to bask in; but for myself, I thought it a very dull gehenna.
All through the wintry morning I sat on a gilt chair, clad from head to foot in thickest silk and blackest crape, in the yellow drawing‐room, every stick of whose ugly furniture spoke to me of him; while my mother‐in‐law knitted socks for her beloved son—she was a thrifty old soul, and would fain have had me do likewise—and narrated to me apochryphal tales of Hugh's extreme beauty in infancy; thrilling anecdotes of his childhood, and of how he caught the measles; of his habits and customs at various periods of his history; of how often he had broken his collar‐bone, &c., &c.page: 204
In the afternoon I either went behind the fat coach‐horses, to pay solemn calls to neighbouring matrons, accompanied as before, by our mamma, or else, when it was not a hunting day, I pottered about the premises with Hugh, heard his horses' pedigrees, and thought, with a frosty chill at my heart, of those other saunters at Lestrange, about shabbier stables, with the dear old man who was not.
Sometimes, but very rarely, I managed to shirk out by myself, to put on the dowdiest cloak and hat I could find, to take off my ring, and dawdle and wander and scramble about the park, and be Nelly Lestrange—in my own eyes at least—once again.
In the evenings, we two women stitched and interchanged amicable nothings or mild sparrings, while Hugh, having bestowed on me such post‐coenal caresses as he felt inclined, went to sleep, and mostly snored.
We were so sitting one evening after dinner—Lady Lancaster, senior, click‐ page: 205 clacking away at that eternal knitting; Sir Hugh not quite asleep yet, but reading the Times as a narcotic; and Lady Lancaster, junior, toiling unlovingly at a smoking‐cap for her master, and glancing now and then from him to his mother, from the lean grizzling head and bristles to the yellow front and wrinkles, and crying out to herself—
"Oh, how sick I am of you both. Oh, if I could but get away—oh, if I only could!"
Then Hugh spoke.
"Mother, do you recollect M'Gregor?"
"M'Gregor, my dear boy; what M'Gregor?—there are so many M'Gregors. There is your poor father's friend, Sir Malcolm, and there's General M'Gregor?"
"No, no," interrupts her son, "none of those old fogies. I mean a big, good‐looking fellow that was here last year. Don't you remember?"
"To be sure," says mamma, calmly; "he spilt a cup of coffee over my lavender satin—I had to have the breadth taken out; and I remember remarking that he page: 206 seemed very attentive to Dorothea Lestrange. Yes, I remember the young man perfectly."
"Do you happen to recollect the number of his regiment?" says Hugh, who is widely, brilliantly awake by now.
"—th Dragoons," interpose I, breathlessly; "what about him?"
"Nothing, darling," says Benedick, looking at me with lazy rapture, "only I see it's ordered to India."
"Ordered to India!"
I rose and rushed hastily out of the room, very nearly falling foul of the butler, who was bringing in tea, and disconcerting that grave functionary considerably.
Next day, Sir Hugh and his mother went to dine and sleep at a house in the neighbourhood. My deep mourning of course excused me from accompanying them, and a proud woman was I when their backs were fairly turned. I had begged and entreated of my mother‐in‐law not to stay, or let Hugh stay at home on my account; and she had commended my page: 207 unselfishness, and had driven off in high good humour with "her boy."
"Thank God!" said I, standing at the hall‐door, and watching the carriage lamps go twinkling down the dusky avenue. Then I returned slowly to the saloon, and let my countenance fall into any woe‐begone dejected curves it chose, there being nobody by to remark upon them.
"Ordered to India—ordered to India!" Those three words had been dwelling in my ears for the last twenty‐four hours, ceaselessly; the gilt clock on the mantelpiece seemed to be ticking them now. "Going to India to have his young life scorched away, and I should never see him again." It was not that I should not see him again for a year, or for two, or for twenty years, but—never. I should never know how, why, or for what other fairer, lovabler woman he had deserted me.
The fire burnt cheerily; the wax candles page: 209 shed a soft lustre round them; the old china on mantel‐shelf and table and cabinet looked comfortable and snug and homelike; but I felt stifled, choking. I went to the window, opened it, and stepped out into the verandah. A great gust of rain‐laden wind comes driving roughly against me, the French window behind me bangs to, and I stand out on the wet flags, and watch the black clouds go scudding, hurrying across the sky, for the moon is up and gives me light. It was not cold, and I felt to breathe freer, leaning my face among the wet ivy, that climbed and twisted round the further pillar of the verandah.
"It was here he kissed me; it was here he took me in his arms," said I to myself, nestling my head among the dripping green. "I thought I was going to spend my life with him, and now I am alone, alone for evermore! Great God—how unbearable!"
Suddenly there comes a lull between two rainbursts; the moon comes sweeping out from behind a great cloud shoulder; page: 210 the Portugal laurel beside me shakes and rustles; and from behind it a man steps out suddenly—steps out into the moonlit gravel walk, where the pebbles are glittering like so many diamonds.

Vick Touches NFL's Third Rail, Strikes Out?
Posted on 13 Jul 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
Michael Vick has touched the third rail of the NFL – whether he pulled the trigger or not! This moron simply provided lip service to the NFL when he claimed that he understood the ZERO TOLERANCE policy. Effectively, Vick doesn't care! He wanted a paycheck and because "a brutha wants to get PAID" without actually doing real work, he told the NFL what they wanted to hear. Punk ...

Hi there, everyone!
I wanted to gauge any interest, design ideas, compliments or criticism, that people might have about this story and design for WAKE.
I have delete the story in this post to make this post shorter and easier to read. To read the story about WAKE, please visit this link: WAKE Storyline
If I were to describe WAKE in one sentence of descriptors, it would be: Mass Effect meets I Am Legend meets Singularity (Video Game) meets Life After People (History Channel Show).

-A journal can be collected next to a skeleton in a broken hyper-space
pod. The journal reads:
"Something is trying to break in: I've got no clue what it is. The door
seems sturdy enough, but there's no food or water in here. I'm trapped, and the
only way out seems to be to sleep through this nightmare. The sign on the wall
says 'stasis', and there are a couple people in these pods. It all seems
remarkably straightforward, but I still pray that I am calibrating my pod
correctly. I don't want to die.

-Player can return to Scene 4
-One IOI is an old marquee lying on the ground. A message is faintly
burned into the marquee from prolonged use. It reads, "Breaking News: Chaos as".
With the message cut off, Duffy tells the player that he can use the repurposed
cell phone to wirelessly interface with the device. The phone can use this
interface to translate the data stored into the text that once flashed on this
marquee screen. It reads, "Breaking News: Chaos as the government of our United
States has officially dissolves into a state of martial law. All remaining citizens
are advised to flee high density population areas."
-Another IOI is a message scrawled on the wall; "Jen Barrister (Heart +

near the large door
-Player can proceed to a side-area (Scene 5a)
-Player can formulate a solution to the puzzle, which would open the
door and allow the player to continue on in their search for answers
-The player can choose several interactions with each solar panel. Only
one does anything that helps the player solve the puzzle, which is cleaning the
solar panels off.
-The player will only receive a message when interacting with the tin
roof. "This roof looks thin, but too sturdy to pull down. It's casting a shadow
over these solar panels." The player, remembering the all-purpose tool of Duffy's,
may note that the tool shot the magnets out at a reasonable velocity. The
player can talk to Duffy about this tool, and discuss the velocity of the
magnets. This will lead the player to being able to ask if the tool could punch
holes through the tin roof covering the solar panels. Duffy will allow the
player to use the tool to punch holes in the roof, allowing rays of light to
fall on the solar panels.
This will allow the solar panels to charge the generator. The generator
powers up, but does not seem to open the door. Duffy notices that a connector
is a converter is busted at the base of the generator. A new converter can be
found in the nearby HOG. With this converter, the door can be opened. The generator
needs to be interfaced with, via the phone that the player is carrying. With
the door open, the player can proceed into the building.
Scene 5 ("Desmond's Pawn Shop")
Items of Interest (IOI): Yes
Puzzles: No
Hidden Object Games: Yes
-Explore this scene for anything of interest.
Possible actions:
-The player can explore this shop
-The player can interact with various items
-The player can interact with a Painting to get a clue
-The player can explore a HOG in this scene to receive a critical item
-The player can return to Scene 5
-An IOI can be found in the HOG in this scene (converter).
-The painting is an IOI that, when interacted with, shows that the
artist is "Jennifer Barrister". The player can also flip the painting around
for a message that reads; "I knew you'd come looking for answers here first, in
your shop. Find the place where the two lines converge. The place we parted
every morning and reunited every evening. There lies a room with a key pad
lock. The code is simple, but only you could know it. Remember what you said to
me when you decided to open the shop here in Astoria? You said, "Location,
location, location." Turn the painting back when you are done. I don't want
someone… or something following you.
So - do you like it?
Let me know if you'd like additional information, or what you think about the potential of a project like this! I am open to anything, be it interest in helping, or just thoughts and opinions. PM me or reply in this thread. Thanks!

Pictus, Cory, or Pictus and Cory?
G'day folks, I'm looking for a good sifting cat for my deepish (3 inch) sand. I have a 125. So far, my research suggests that cories are the best crew for the job, and I'm fine with that.
My daughter however (and wife too, as of yesterday) are in love with pictus cats. Trouble is, half of the internet says they get to 10 inches, and the other half says 5, which is more than a little inconsistent, so I'd really appreciate some straight talk on that point. I like them, but I'm not sure if I want 5 10 inch cats in the bottom of my tank. The other thing is I can't seem to find much info regarding their sand sifting prowess. Can they replace cories, or are they just not as keen on digging as them? And if not, and if they don't really get to 10 inches, can I keep a group of cories and a group of pictus cats together?
Also, how are these fish in terms of being jerks to plants?
Thanks for any advice.
I have not kept pictus [& there's more than one kind btw] but my understanding is that the commonly available ones are about 5" adults.
IMO THE best source on info on the net for all things catfish is this --> http://www.planetcatfish.com/.
Type 'Pictus' into the search box in the upper RH corner and you will know for sure.
Gas mileage isn't everything OIIIIIIIO
Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
Why pretend there are no stupid questions? Actually, There are many stupid questions: "Should I drink this bleach?" Is just one example.
Having said that, Just because it's a stupid question doesn't mean that it shouldn't be asked. It's better to know.
A warm beer is better than a cold beer. Because nothing is better than a cold beer, and a warm beer is better than nothing.
Wikipedia - 4.3" Adult
That pet Place - 4.5"
Planet Catfish - 4.7" Adult
Pet Solutions - 5" Adult
Tropical tank - 5" Adult
Live Aquaria - 6" Adult
PetSmart - 10" Adult
AC - 12" Adult
I would say safe bet is 5".
Pictus are carnivors and will eventually eat smaller fish. They are active scanners of the substrate, but I dont know how much rooting around, sifting and digging they do compared to Cory Cats.
Most catfish get larger than the 2" to 3" that most Cory Cats max out at.
However. Synodontis catfish have a lot of different varieties including the Featherfin Catfish. But you are talking 8-10" minimum for most of these kinds of catfish.
They also have the emeral catfish, but it looks just like a Cory Cat. A little taller and larger.
Have fun with your choices :)55 Gallon Freshwater Tank (semi-planted) 48"x21"x13"

Thanks for the responses, I'm convinced now that pictus cats won't be as industrious in my sand as cories, but also that the ones I'm likely to find in the store won't get any bigger than 5 inches. That just leaves the final question, has anybody kept both in a single tank, with or without problems? Again, it's a 125, so my bottom is pretty big!
i have kept both pimelodus pictus and corydoras with little problems the pictus cats are a little aggressive/playful toward other bottom dwelling fish. i did not find them to be efficient scavenger fish, though. And mine did not sift sand at all. Mine were nearly 7 inches long when i gave them away. might i suggest hoplo cats? Very active sand sifter.

I do like the look of those hoplos, but I managed to stop by my one and only local fish store today and can't get them there. They do have some really nice pepper cories, so if they're similar in their use as sifters I'll just go with what I have access to.
Also spotted some lace catfish at walmart (if you count that, then I have 2 fish stores) that I really liked the look of, anybody know anything about those?
by lace catfish, are you talking about synodontis?

By Brandon Speck/NEMS Daily Journal
Saltillo's scenario is simple. Win and keep playing. Lose and hit the gym.
The Tigers will visit Lake Cormorant on Friday night for their final regular season game with a playoff spot in the balance.
Saltillo (6-4, 3-3) can finish either third or fourth in Division 1-5A with a win and be on the road in a playoff opener next week. Tigers coach Pat Byrd is treating this game like a playoff game.
"No doubt, it's win or go home," he said.
Lake Cormorant (6-4, 3-3) quarterback Brett Thompson spreads out opposing defenses. He threw three touchdown passes and ran in another last week against Clarksdale.
Thompson has a key deep threat in Ryan Golden.
Byrd said Cormorant's offense reminds him of Shannon's, back when he was Amory's defensive coordinator. A former Shannon standout receiver, Jamie Armstrong, is the Gators' offensive coordinator.
"They're always athletic, especially on defense and they spread you, kind of like watching Shannon in the '90s," Byrd said. "Golden is really good, they have a big quarterback who can throw it."
Byrd said his defense will have to mix coverages in an effort to confuse Thompson, who makes a lot of pre-snap reads.
on the rise
The Tigers haven't made the playoffs in eight seasons but may have already surpassed expectations.
QB Andrew Soper has rushed for 919 yards and 10 touchdowns and thrown for more than 1,300 yards.
A.J. Hunt has been his biggest target with 774 yards and 11 touchdowns. The Tigers scored 21 third-quarter points last week to beat Hernando and keep their playoff hopes alive.
"We had so many coming back, we thought we'd have an opportunity if we stayed healthy," Byrd said. "I feel like we left one or two on the table, but we're where we are and we're going to try and play one more."

This one's pretty straight forward. What do you think is the best ship/vehicle released since the line started up again in 95?
Personally, my vote goes to:
B-Wing! I was actually suprised by how much I liked this thing. I never really gave it much credit during the movies.

Video: How Obama showed his "singular" focus on the Gulf spill
posted at 11:36 am on June 4, 2010 by Ed Morrissey
For those who read yesterday's Obamateurism of the Day and followed the links, this won't be new material, but the new presentation is powerful enough to revisit it. Kevin Kristy did the legwork at PolitiPage, at least up to the holiday weekend. While Obama claimed a "singular" focus on the Deepwater Horizon blowout and oil spill in the Gulf since Day 1, the Singular Sensation spent a lot of time at parties, golf courses, and political fundraisers:
Just to remind people of the unofficial count:
- Two days of media events (White House Correspondents Dinner and a tête a tête with Bono)
- Three days of fundraising
- Four commemorations (graduations, Cinco de Mayo, etc)
- Six days of vacation
- Six days of campaigning
- Six sports events
- Seven days of golf
In comparison, how many days did Obama spend at the Gulf? Three, during this span of time, and he's back again today.

A Bulldog should eat out of a pan which has a flat bottom and straight sides. Most Bulldoggers use stainless steel because it lasts longer. Do not use plastic either for his food or his water. A stainless bowl can be cleaned in a dishwaser and will contain far less bacteria over say a plastic bowl.
Most breeders feed a two to four month old puppy four times a day. At this age the kibble is usually softened with warm water. Some add cottage cheese and/or yogurt. There are several good brands of puppy kibble. If you are not satisfied with the kibble he is eating, try another. You want a kibble the puppy likes and which produces a nice coat, keeps the puppy round but not obese, and produces solid stools. Check the list of ingredients on the sack. Do not feed your Bulldog a kibble which contains soybeans.
You may feed the puppy on a set schedule, or have food available to him at all times. The pup will flourish under either regimen. The choice depends on which is more convenient for you.

... owe $14,000,000 in back payroll taxes. Some agencies have owed $ for over three years.
This was the result of an Inspector General Report. Now $14 million is only a drop in the bucket ... but where did the $ go? When a private business doesn't set aside those funds, they are in deep doo-doo with the IRS. Usually, in the case of a private business, either the $ was used to keep the business up-and-running; or the principals may have dipped into the funds for personal use. So, in the case of a Federal agency, where did the $ go?
Just another $14 million to demonstrate how big govt gets out of hand ... nobody even misses $14 million! And then there is the millions of unpaid personal income taxes of Federal employees. Throw in the waste from all agencies ... $850,000 wasted on JUST ONE conference at GSA is just one example. Do we really have any idea what is happening to the tax dollars that go to DC? or our state capitols?

This subject came up on another site and it opened my eyes to how things have changed over the last 50 to 75 years. Things always seem to change and sometimes not to the better way.
Im not sure why (well maybe I am), but this story just makes me want to go out and beat a politician with my 15 10wt.
|Thanks old man for the corrections I should have known that the Cedar now flows in the lake at Boeing on the East side. It all just adds to the strangeness of urban river fishing.

Sorry, but the Cedar doesn't flow into that river anymore. It flows into Lake Washington. And the Duwamish just turns into the Green. Where about it gets it's name change I don't know but these two are the same river.
The Dead River.
Sunday afternoon my 13 year old son asked if we could go fishing down on the Duwamish River which is only a couple miles from our house. I said why not and off we went to find some chum salmon.
For those who are not from Seattle the Duwamish River runs through the city of Seattle and eventually finds it's way out into the suburbs where industrial growth borders both sides of the river. There are many rivers that feed into it, such as the Ceder River, and the Green River to name two. The Green being famous because the Green River Killer used to dump his victums into its surrounding bushes. We fished the tide flats on an incoming tide and I must say there were no flats anymore as all marshes were filled in around 1850 to 1900 to make room for shipping and industry. We started out on the river across from Boeing Feild and found no fish coming to the surface which I thought odd at this time of year. So we packed up and headed further down river and every placed we stopped we found nets strung across the river. Usually it would be two nets one on each side and 30 or 40 feet apart with an opening for boat traffic. But the openings were always the same in that the boat traffic would have to manuver at an angle to get between the nets. In other words fish to get lucky enough to make it by the nets would have to be lucky enough or smart enough to figure out a complex path of travel.
The Seattle Sunday paper this very day had a front page article on the incredible waste of money both federal and state being put into Salmon restoration on urban rivers where there has been little sucsess in bringing back Salmon populations. Here I was sitting in a small park with broken booze bottles, syringes and sleeping, less fortunate folks than us and thinking about how gloomy this whole show is. Even my son mentioned how odd this whole fishing show we were experiencing was.
Yesterday became a day of understanding of how bad things can be, how far over many years we as humans have come in the wrong dirrection. It is not to say that we do not need developement but that we have gone about it in such a selfish and greedy manner that we possibly can not get things back to a more healthy environment with the infussion of great amounts of money. Maybe rivers such as the Duwamish should just be left alone and let nature take its 1000 years to wipe out the developement to purge its bottom from PCB's and to take it back our mistakes on its own time frame. Maybe we need to spend the less and less funding coming our way on rivers that have a chance to be saved and let dead rivers be.
