TB: even though I don't always agree with your evaluations, I'm grateful that you're putting out beta on these obscure mystery climbs.
30' pitch, one move crux.
Easy for the grade, even at 11a. Did this as a follow on to Rincon. I (short) found this easier than Rincon's curx; my partner (tall) found them about the same.

I did it without knowing what it was. When my partner asked as I set the anchor, I answered "between hard 5.10 and easy 5.11". So I guess we agree on the grade. I've been taking a whole lot of shit lately for sandbagging so when Jo couldn't do the moves (she is short, and she had just done Rincon) I decided I'd post it as the book rates it. So what do I honestly think? 5.11a, tops. I was trying to be fair though. Consider the 5.11c I gave it as Rossiter's opinion. I think it's less technical than Rincon, but a whole lot more physical.
As for the stars, I liked it enough to go back to it next time I am there. That's what 2 stars means on this site. If you wouldn't repeat it, but didn't mind having done it, that's 1 star on this site, and you're entitled to your opinion.

The on-field melee which ended the San Rafael-Redwood high school football game prematurely on Friday night will have dire consequences, with both teams being forced to forfeit their scheduled games this weekend.
In the case of San Rafael, that means the annual Bell Game with Terra Linda will be a JV-only affair Friday night. For Redwood, a varsity game at San Marin on Saturday will be forfeited. The San Rafael and Redwood coaches and players were informed of their school's decisions Tuesday.
"It's an extremely unfortunate situation," San Rafael principal Kit Pappenheimer said. "But in reviewing the tapes it was clear that the only action that could be taken was to (eject and suspend) any players that were on the field. This was a heartbreaking decision. I can't tell you what a disappointment it is to have to do this and I wish there was another way. But we're part of a league and there are rules."
The fight Friday began moments after San Rafael had scored a touchdown to take a 22-0 lead. On the ensuing kickoff return, tempers flared and players from both teams became involved in a melee. On-field officials eventually restored order, but the game was declared over with 2:17 remaining on the scoreboard.
The review of the fracas resulted in the entire Redwood varsity roster with the exception of injured or absent players being considered ejected from the game, the same fate that befell the overwhelming majority of San Rafael's players. The penalty for being ejected includes a suspension for the following game, meaning neither school has enough players to compete in a varsity contest this weekend.
"It's not a good thing," said David Sondheim, who is the assistant principal in charge of athletics at Redwood. "The only thing I can tell you is that we will not be able to field a team for Saturday and will forfeit to San Marin."
The forfeits are actually the result of a North Coast Section rule 307H, paragraph D, which states a player ejected for "unsportsmanlike or dangerous conduct" shall "be ineligible for the next contest the school actually participates" in.
For San Rafael, the possibility of a perfect regular season will go by the wayside. The Bulldogs are 8-0, but the loss to Terra Linda will change that. Redwood's loss will drop the Giants to 5-4 and could hurt the team's chances of receiving a NCS playoff bid. The official score for both forfeited games will be 2-0.
"I'm disappointed for all the kids involved," said San Marin coach Dan Hickey. "I realize something had to happen, but it's a sad thing. We were looking forward to playing Redwood. It would have been a very good test. It would have been a good game."

Hello all,
I have to admit I am both sad and a little relieved Gonzalez is retiring....only one more season game. I imagine I will pick up another pc in a year or two but who knows. Gonzo, Steve Young, Heisman, and several master sets is more then enough (not counting non sport related collections).
So first, I guess I will say, thank you Tony Gonzalez for giving it 110% every Sunday for an amazing 16 years.
Produced by PowerBars ("Athletic Energy Food") and released in 1994/95, Gonzo's first card is a basketball card that notes him a freshman (although he was a junior at the time). The set also has two team cards with Gonzalez and perhaps the first card of coach Billy Kennedy, then an assistant coach.

It's used at Xstrata's operations throughout Timmins, at the De Beers Victor Mine, and in various Sudbury mines, but Dave Sharp's patented conveyor belt alignment device is not mass produced in a factory.
Instead, Sharp goes home after a full day of work as a mine maintenance technician for Xstrata Copper's Timmins operations, heads into his machine shop, and assembles the Sure Align Tracker for his growing list of clients.
In fact, as the one-man operator of Conveyors Plus, Sharp uses much of his vacation time to install new units for clients and train on-site tradespeople on their general operation.
Throw in two athletic sons on the verge of becoming teenagers, a wife who participates in soccer, and a strong commitment to his young family, and Sharp is a very busy entrepreneur.
"I sell, I manufacture, and I install, so yeah, it's a lot of work," says Sharp.
"I have to do shift work, so when I go to bed at night, I'm exhausted."
After 25 years of working on conveyors in the mining industry, Sharp has seen day-in and day-out the problems associated with belting systems.
Belt splices and rollers can slide the system out of alignment, and even systems straight from the factory can be prone to similar problems. Outdoor conveyors can be knocked off balance by something as simple as the wind.
What's more, some market solutions are inefficient, often installed on the bottom side or dirty side of the return belts. This leads them to inadvertently act as scrapers, accumulating muck and material. Many also hang 18 inches below the belt, creating clearance issues which can prove dangerous, as Sharp himself discovered after being struck in the head by a unit after grazing it with a vehicle.
In 2003, Sharp decided he could do better. After sitting down with his brother, John, a machinist, the two developed a working example of a conveyor system.
Using his hands-on knowledge of what needed to be fixed, Sharp developed his Sure Align Tracker device, which uses guide rollers to detect and adjust the belt as soon as it comes out of alignment by a quarter-inch.
What's more, the unit can be installed on the inside, or clean side of the belt, using tension and contact, rather than the hanging weight of the belt to help maintain alignment.
After getting permission to test out his invention in his workplace, Sharp soon found his employer placing orders for the device. The company continues to be a major client, and Sharp is currently due to install eight more units at Xstrata's Kidd Metallurgical Site.
"It's a really great product," says Yvan Grenier, who's worked as a millwright and welder with Xstrata Copper for the last 29 years. "It saves a lot of money, because a lot of belts get ripped, but his type of roller just lines up everything and doesn't rub on anything. It's amazing."
Since then, he's introduced changes to the device, including the development of a mounting bracket which fits all styles and types of frames. This helps as one unit should be installed every 80 feet, though the harsher nature of underground facilities.
These improvements have helped make him a popular draw at trade shows, which have been a major driver of his business potential.
Such experiences have brought him invitations to various United States factories and even a visit to speak with the Chilean government. A recent trip to a Las Vegas show resulted in five major conveyor belt companies offering to buy him out entirely, something which didn't appeal to Sharp's vision for the future of his company.
Depending on growing demand, Sharp already imagines the possibility of one day establishing a separate manufacturing facility, complete with full-time workers and a team of trained installation personnel.
In the meantime, he's contracting out machining work to local firms, and bringing in part-time helpers to build units for particularly large orders. A marketing and sales coordinator is also being hired to help push interest in his product beyond the Northern Ontario area.
"Pretty well every conveyor belt on this Earth has alignment problems," says Sharp. "I have a great product, and I think it's time to start focusing on the world."

I am 4 weeks post op and have been having pain on L breast. First noticed L breast drop, consulted with nurse at my PS and she assured it was ok. Pain then started a week after my sterile tape was removed. I was completely closed only very small scab. Pain starts on my incision and moves to my nipple area. Also painful when I walk, I have to hold my breast. Sensitive when I massage too. Not sure if it could be infection or bottom out. I have 450cc silicone under muscle.
Bottomed out or Infection?
Doctor Answers 2
Infection versus bottoming out should be easy to differentiate
Infection usually present with pain, redness, warmth, swelling, and/or fevers. Not all of these have to be present at the same time but usually several are and the symptoms worsen with time without treatment.
Bottoming out of the implant is usually only represented by the descent of the implant below the fold and lower down on the chest. Sometimes the soft tissue that lies between the areola and the fold stretches out and this can be another form of bottoming out.
If neither of these are occurring and you are experiencing pain it may be either normal healing process or the traction of the sutures that were used to close the incision on the nerves in the vicinity. I would recommend that you see you plastic surgeon as he/she should be able to shed some light on the matter.
All the best,
Dr Remus Repta

5 Years : From Sep 2012 to Sep 2017
By Alex MacDonald
NEW YORK--European financier Nathaniel Rothschild said Thursday that a consortium led by him is prepared to inject $270 million into U.K.-listed Indonesian coal miner Bumi PLC (BUMI.LN) in order to flush out all ties between the Bumi's board and the powerful Indonesian Bakrie family.
Bumi PLC has received two proposals so far aimed at extricating the embattled London-listed miner from an acrimonious relationship with the Bakrie family, which owns a 23.8% stake in the Indonesian company. The company's shares have plummeted due to a boardroom rift over corporate governance issues and an independent probe into financial irregularities at its Indonesian coal assets.
The Bakrie family has proposed severing its ties with Bumi PLC by offering $1.2 billion to buy back Bumi's Indonesian coal assets and in the process exit its 23.8% stake in Bumi PLC. The deal would involve buying back Bumi's 29% stake in Indonesia's largest coal producer Bumi Resources (BUMI.JK) and Bumi's 85% stake in Indonesian coal miner Berau Coal Energy (BRAU.JK) for about $278 million and $950 million respectively in three separate transactions.
Mr. Rothschild, a major shareholder and Bumi co-founder, reacted to this proposal by resigning from Bumi's board, citing concerns that minority shareholders weren't being protected given Chairman Samin Tan's ties with the Bakrie family.
Mr. Rothschild instead suggested an alternative proposal in which Bumi would accept the part of the Bakries' proposal which involved buying back Bumi's 29% stake in Bumi Resources in exchange for $278 million in cash plus the Bakrie family's exit from its Bumi PLC stake. Mr. Rothschild, through the NR Investment-led consortium would then inject more cash into Bumi PLC to buy out Mr. Tan and another large Indonesian shareholder, Rosan Perkasa Roeslani, from Bumi's board by offering compensation for their shares.
Mr. Roeslani and Mr. Tan own shares in Bumi through investment fund Recapital Advisors and Indonesian coking coal company Borneo Lumbung Energi & Metal (BORN.JK) respectively. Recapital owns a 13% stake in Bumi, while Borneo owns 23.8%. Borneo holds its shares in tandem with the Bakrie Group, a conglomerate owned by the Bakrie family, through two special-purpose vehicles.
"NR Investments believes that the interrelated interests of Mr. Tan and the Bakries amount to a concert party in respect of Bumi PLC. Together with other investors, NR Investments has committed to injecting $270 million into Bumi PLC to clear out these parties," Mr. Rothschild said in a statement.
Mining tycoon Robert Friedland has agreed to be part of a the Rothschild-led consortium, two people familiar with the matter said. Mr. Friedland, who was responsible for discovering and developing several major mining projects including the massive Oyu Tolgoi gold and copper project in Mongolia, has agreed to commit $50 million to the consortium, according to one of the two people.
Hashim Djojohadikusumo, the brother of Indonesian presidential front-runner and general-turned-businessman Prabowo Subianto, has also agreed to invest $50 million in the consortium. Mr. Subianto is running against the Bakrie Group's patriarch, Aburizal Bakrie, who heads Indonesia's Golkar Party and is also a contender in the 2014 presidential elections. Mr. Djojohadikusumo is worth more than $700 million, according to the most recent Forbes survey.
Mr. Friedland and a spokesman for Mr. Rothschild declined to comment on the matter.

It began just before dusk with the sound of cracking concrete behind Walthamstow marsh.
The horses in the Lee Riding Centre whinnied in panic. A kestrel wheeled away from its hunt and shot across the skyline to the Essex filter beds. Two men behind the reservoir hurried out from under cover, hurriedly pulling up their pants.
As the cracking got louder, leathery tubes began to snake from concrete plinths at the feet of pylons, slithering through the scrub and plugging into sockets concealed in boggy sinkholes, wherein lay the ancient soundsystems of Marshlanta, a lost analogue tribe.
There was a cacophonous clatter as the tubes plugged themselves in. Then music began to play.
"GIVE ME MY MIND BACK", boomed one of the pylons, gyrating wildly, wrenching free from its cables. From Hackney Marsh to Enfield, the others followed suit. Soon the pylons were free to pull on Spandex mini-skirts and tight leather pants. They began to strut up and down the old aqueduct path while herons, gulls, parakeets and crows flocked in spirals around them.
As the beats accelerated, some of the pylons bowed down to snort gravel from the freight train lines. Others sucked from the giant gas cylinders overlooking the industrial estate. What a buzz! The disco had well and truly begun.
The good vibes vanished quickly when sinister human ravers emerged from the marshes, carrying stockpiles of ketamine, acid and Roflcopter. The ravers may have been tiny spindles of flesh, but the giant pylons were in over their heads.
Famously, pylons are unsuited to human drugs. Soon they were are in a sorry state, swimming in the reservoirs (instantly electrocuting thousands of cormorants), copping off with telegraph poles, dry humping the Lee Valley Ice Centre and enthusiastically making plans to set up electronic bookshop/bars in South America. The gibberish intensified and the drainage ditches around the marsh quickly filled with fluorescent electro puke as, one-by-one the great pylons toppled.
Meanwhile in London, the lights went out…
Below is a rare recording of the music played that night.

Lumen: the Electro-Acoustic Handpan
A fully self-contained electronic percussion instrument in the form of a traditional handpan.
(If you haven't, check out Yuki Koshimoto, Paul Boyter or Hang Massive – a few of the legends)
The Lumen is an electronic percussion instrument in the form of a handpan, which provides the unique playing experience of it's acoustic inspiration, with the added benefits that electronics bring. It features built-in amplified speakers, an advanced on-board audio processor and full velocity sensitivity.
We want artists around the world to be able to pick up the instrument, turn it on and play – no need to connect to any other equipment. Being an electronic instrument, you can of course output the audio signal or MIDI messages straight from the Lumen.
Why Make an Electronic Handpan?
Acoustic handpans, from their origins in Switzerland to the many varieties available today, all have a number of things in common:
- A beautiful, vibrant sound
- Distinctive playing style
- Rare
- Expensive
The last two are the key: artists around the world struggle to get hold of them. We want to change that.
A second hand Hang, the instrument which originally inspired the Lumen, has been seen on eBay for over $9000. Even modern acoustic alternatives sell for upward of $2000.
The prototype you see in our launch video is what we've managed to achieve on our own. In order to take it to the next level, we need to hand it over to an industrial design team – and we already have an award winning team standing by.
Once the project is funded, we'll work closely with them to work out all of the details, hopefully adding some extra features as we go.
Paul Boyter, a renowned percussionist (and star of our launch video), will be providing assistance from the performance side, while Soniccouture will be doing the instrument sampling and sound design.
What will it cost?
- Super Early Birds: $499
- Early Birds: $599
- Crowd funding price: $699
PLEASE NOTE: Shipping will be charged after the campaign is fully funded. This will allow us the opportunity to negotiate the best possible rate with our shipping partners based on expected volumes.
Risks & Challenges
As this is a new product, there is the chance that we could run into manufacturing and production delays which are beyond our control. We will be open and transparent in these cases, and keep all of our backers in the loop.
We want to make the Lumen from the highest quality components possible, which may take time to source and assemble. We believe we've given ourselves enough time to do that; and if there are any delays we will communicate those as well.
How can I help?
The best way is to back us, we need you!
If you can't, but think that the Lumen is a product that should be available to the world, please share this campaign with friends; every contribution helps.

A day after announcing a deal with ESPN for part of Europe, the NHL signed 10 more media-rights deals covering the rest of the continent, plus markets in the Middle East and Africa.
"Hockey is a global sport, with more than 25 percent of our players hailing from countries outside of North America," John Collins, NHL chief operating officer, said in a league release. "Through these new distribution partners, our local-language websites which launched overseas at the start of the season and our digital streaming game product NHL GameCenter Live, we are making it easier for our passionate international fan base to follow their favorite teams and players as well as the Stanley Cup Playoffs."
Specific deal terms, including rights fees, are unknown at this time. The pacts cover the U.K. (Premier Sports) and Ireland (Setanta Sports), which will carry multiple live games per week.
The league also cut deals in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (NOVA Sport), Portugal (Sport TV) and France (Canal Plus Sports). Canal Plus Sports also has picked up NHL rights in Monaco, French-speaking Switzerland, sub-Saharan Africa and other French overseas territories. Fox Sports bought the rights in the Middle East (including Turkey, Cyprus and Israel), and Setanta and Zulu Sports bought other Sub-Saharan African rights. NBC in April agreed to pay the NHL an average of $187M per year over the next 10 years for the U.S. rights to the league.

Free, on-demand, ad-supported shows will also be available and will include "Friday Night Lights." In addition to on-demand programming, live linear feeds of CNBC programming will also be offered. Programming will come from a number of NBC Universal's networks such as Bravo, Sci-Fi Channel, USA Network, Telemundo, and mun2. The service is expected to debut in the second quarter.
Executives who ran one of the big three networks 20 years ago would have never imagined the current revenue opportunities open to networks thanks to breakthroughs in technology on the Internet, through portable media devices, and through wireless mobile services. Now, if you produce a hit show, then you can not only expect the ad-revenue from a television broadcast, but also look forward to revenue from paid downloads, rented viewing, and additional ad-based revenue from other mediums such as wireless and the Internet.

Could the Celtics' 'Big Three' Get Dealt?
ABC Digital
National Sports
Updated at
(BOSTON) — Could it be the end of an era in Boston? Celtics' General Manager Danny Ainge recently said he would be willing to break up the Boston "Big Three" if it would benefit the team.
He saw what happened to Boston in the early 90's, when the C's didn't part with aging veterans Larry Bird, Kevin Mchale and Robert Parish. That decision was a major reason the Celtics didn't win a first round playoff series from the 1992-1993 season to the 2000-2001 season.
Despite this, Ainge is not totally sold on the idea.
"We've all known that there's a window for this group," Ainge said on WEEI. "We're constantly evaluating that. But I don't have anything on the books. I don't have anything imminent. There's nothing out there that I am actively doing. "I'm being patient with this group of guys. They believe they're much better than they're playing right now. Doc (Rivers) believes they're much better than they're playing right now. I believe that too."
The Big Three consist of Ray Allen, who is 36; Kevin Garnett, who is 35; and Paul Pierce, who is 34. The three came together in the 2007 off-season. They immediately won the 2007-2008 NBA Championship and were one game away from winning another in 2010.

Thu, 21 Apr 2011 23:46:47 GMT —
It only takes a few minutes to drop in a piece of paper or glass container into a recycling bin.
Environmental Investigator Alvin Patina said Hidalgo County's Precinct 3 invested in recycling trailers about three years ago to help cut down on illegal dumping.
Patina said while patrolling rural Hidalgo County he would notice most of the trash, that was illegally dumped, could have been recycled.
"You're looking at 80 to 90 percent that could be recycled," Patina said.
Every week Patina goes and picks up these trailers at several locations in Precinct 3.
He hooks the trailer to his truck and heads to the McAllen Recycling Center. Inside the center there is a massive recycling operation taking place.
Patina said the entire process take about 45 minutes"but is well worth the wait.
"Our landfills will remain opened longer, Patina said. It only takes one aluminum can run your television for five hours."
Precinct 3 Constable Larry Gallardo said now that they see the recycling program works they want to expand it into the colonials.
"We want to now go into the colonials in our precinct and get them on board, Gallardo said. We're going to start a real big effort in the next month."
Gallardo said he hopes, by making an effort; they can get these illegal dumpsites cleaned up

ON Tuesday, the Church of England's General Synod said "no" to women bishops. Even though the modernisers were only narrowly beaten – by a mere six votes – the traditionalists' victory is immensely significant, not least because this matter cannot be voted upon again until a new Synod is elected in 2015.
According to the Rev Prebendary Rod Thomas, Chairman of Reform, an evangelical Anglican group that is against the idea of female bishops:
"We are required to accept something that we don't believe the Bible teaches. The [proposed] legislation requires us…to accept women as bishops when the Bible says they should not be in that position."
But many Britons – and not just Anglicans either – disagree with Thomas's position and are very upset about this development (which few anticipated).
Clergywomen openly shed tears of frustration. The Rev Rachel Weir, who runs a campaign group called Women And The Church said: "We are absolutely devastated. Not just devastated on behalf of clergywomen – it's awful for their morale – but [because the outcome of this vote is] a disaster for the Church of England. There is something badly wrong with the system."
Surprisingly perhaps, most Anglican clergymen – the Archbishop of Canterbury included – are on the same page as Rev Weir, support the idea that women should enjoy identical promotion prospects and are describing the result as "gravely damaging", "a crushing blow" and "a national embarrassment".
The Bishop ofChelmsford, the Right Reverend Stephen Cottrell said: "This [refusal to permit women to become bishops] is going to be very hard to sell to the People."
Even the habitually reactionary British Daily Mail newspaper regards last Tuesday as "a sad day that leaves the Church in chaos" and went on to say that while it respects the theological objections of those who obstructed the move, "this vote has condemned the Church to years of infighting over a question which most of the nation finds abstruse or simply bewildering…
"…After all," asks the Daily Mail, echoing the views of millions of perplexed and irritated onlookers, "haven't women priests more than amply proved their worth in the 20 years since the Synod overcame its objections to their ordination? Why, then, this civil war over their appointment as bishops – which will surely come one day – in a church noted for its flexibility on almost every issue?"
The Daily Mail editorial concludes by wishing that the Anglican church would focus more on the need to provide moral guidance in aUnited Kingdomthat is plagued by ills such as casual abortion, family breakdown and greed.
I couldn't have put it better myself.
As far as I'm concerned, it is utterly weird, in the twenty-first century, for women who choose to serve the Anglican church to be deprived of equality.
As far as I'm concerned, folks like Rev Thomas should abandon their belief in female subservience. Male dominance was a social norm when the Bible was written, so I really don't blame Biblical scribes for carrying on as if men were superior. The fact is that men were in charge of pretty well everything then.
But things have changed. A lot. Women have now proved that they can play leadership roles and be Heads of State, nuclear physicists, breadwinners, soldiers, etc. And while Rev Thomas and his ilk clearly find the New Reality hard to swallow, they really need to Get Over It and quit being enemies of progress!
Home truth
I RECENTLY read a ThisDay newspaper report in which Alhaji Abdulaziz Yari, the Governor of Zamfara State, was said to have strongly condemnedNigeria's heavy reliance on oil and failure to develop alternative sources of revenue.
Yari apparently expressed the view that the "easy money" that is being generated by the sale of crude oil has turned us into a nation of "lazy rent-seekers". And he was, according to his interviewer, especially scathing about policy-makers and both the Federal and state levels, whom he accused of not coming up with sustainable solutions to economic problems.
Bravo to Yari for being so courageously blunt about the shortcomings of a leadership class to which he belongs. It is indeed true that most Nigerian government folks are indolently unwilling to deliver creative dynamism. And it's about time they started to think outside the box and do their jobs properly.
In the meantime, let's hope that His Excellency is able to practise what he preaches. Zamfara is one of the poorest states inNigeria. I have been there and it's a pretty depressing place. But, like every corner of this country, it has tremendous potential.
If Yari can transform it into a highly productive success story and liberate it from its current dependence on petro-dollars, I will become his biggest fan.

Charles de Goal
0 Shouts - 175,922 Scrobbles
Initially a solo project formed by Patrick Blain shortly after the 1979 break-up of his earlier band C.O.M.A (often compared to Devo), Charles De Goal were first signed to emerging record label New Rose, the now notorious independent giant of 1980's France, and released debut album 'Algorythmes' in 1980.Read More...
Their music could be described as a collection of minimal synth, punk/post-punk, experimental/avant garde pop and new wave - usually polished with a dark edge, leading the band to be placed on the borders of the Nouvelle Vague scene
and often labeled as 'cold wave', a term which first became popular for French dark wave bands at the time.
Charles de Goal began as a mysterious entity with virtually zero information being available
about the elusive Blain or his sometimes-band, even within the sleeves of releases, and they remained largely anonymous in the early years - not touring their work or revealing their true identity until 1985.
Despite this, C.D.G found acclaim, underground fame and a large amount of airtime on French independent radio stations, managing to shift over 15,000 copies of their debut record.
The second C.D.G album, 'Ici l'ombre', followed quickly with a 1981 release but was considered much darker than their first effort and faired less well with critics. A three year break then came (during which time Blain contributed to the Danse Macabre project) before the release of the bands third album '3' in 1984. 3 was a far more accessible affair which saw the band go on to reach a much wider audience and find greater radio and TV success - a popularity which increased with the bands unveiling and the 1985 debut tour that came after.
Two years later and 1986 swallowed the arrival of 'Double Face', the bands fourth and final album before a mammoth hiatus, interrupted briefly with the release of the compilation album 'Commemoration' in 1989.
Side Projects & Revival
In 1992 Charles de Goal completed work on their 5th studio album, 'Revolution', which found itself without a home - or a launch pad - following the purchase of the bands label, New Rose, by Fnac Music in the same year. With no other interested parties the album was shelved, only to be picked up by Last Call Records in 1997 and released as a double album (alongside a remastered edition of Algorythmes) under the title of 'État Général'.
As well as appearing on the 'Crucifixation' EP with the band Danse Macabre in 1983,
Blain also went on to form the mythical punk/electro band 'Monkey Test' in 2000.
Some years later, in 2006, Patrick Blain performed, along with fellow Monkey Test members Etienne Lebourg and Jean-Philippe Brouant and AE (of End of Data, Raendom) as Charles de Goal once more in what was intended to be a one-off concert. The success of the show was so great that the band played further dates in France before launching a full European tour and beginning to write new material together.
Released on Self-Control (Blains own record label) in April 2008, 'Restructuration' was the result - the first official release from Charles de Goal in over two decades.
Current Members:
Patrick Blain (vocals, guitar)
AE (keyboards, guitar, programming)

Beef Liver Pate with Cognac
We love taste of beef liver pate more when chicken one. It's may be more crude but more tastier. I used butter top in first time and love the result. Adapted from recipe for chicken liver by Jacques Pépin in Food and wine (march 2007).
1 lb beef liver
1 onion, chopped
1 small garlic clove, smashed and peeled
1/2 cup + 3 tbsp butter (optional – for covering)
Kosher salt
2 tbsp Cognac or Scotch whisky (I used Hennessy Cognac)
cracked black pepper
Saute the liver, onions and garlic in a couple of tablespoons of the butter until the livers are browned.
Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Add brandy and blend to a paste in the food processor with the rest of the butter. Add salt to taste. Scrape the pâté into 2 or 3 large ramekins.
The pâté can be covered with a thin layer of melted butter, then wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 2 months.
2 Responses to "Beef Liver Pate with Cognac"
[…] At first I wanted to make some duck rillette, but with only 24 hours until the meal I just didn't have time to let it cure properly. So I decided I'd make a pate, a terrine to be exact, which would allow me use some parts of animals I haven't had any experience with and also make something tasty and new that would be fun to eat with some friends. I sniffed around this global network of computadores and poached myself a recipe combining this, this and this. […]
This is now my go to recipe. When I got my grassfed steer, the liver was 12lbs! I make this a couple pounds at a time and freeze it tightly wrapped like a liverwurst. The only thing I do differently is to pour brandy over the cooked livers and light it. That's how I learned to make chicken liver pate so I like the taste better that way. This next time I'm also adding a bit of beef kidney to use that up. Thanks

For Marpeck, however, this was not a naive insistence on the moral impotence of children, who are nevertheless affected by the consequences of the fall of Adam and Eve and can express harmful self-will from an early age. Yet, until they are fully responsible for their behavior, original sin is not imputed unto them damnation. Thus, before the use of their reason children have no sin but only the proclivity to sin.
Support for this view can be found in modern theories of child development (e.g., Jean Piaget, Lawrence Kohlberg, Eric Erikson, etc.). Some of their implications are the following: Children cannot be expected to behave or think at a level beyond their stage of development. Children perceive God first by experiencing a parent-figure and particularly by observing how adult mentors relate to God affectively. Children think concretely in relation to the immediate experience, and only at a later stage of development can they generalize from the immediate experience to the human predicament. Moral reasoning also develops by stages from what Kohlberg called the premoral to the principled levels, with the implication that free voluntary obedience to the laws of God motivated by a love from within is a more mature response than an externally motivated obedience based on the fear of God and divine punishment.
Among the various surviving Anabaptist groups, the Hutterian Brethren, with their communal type of living, have seemed to understand best the nature of child development. Peter Riedemann's Rechenschaft (1545) and Peter Walpot's Schulordnung (1578) reveal a deep sense of responsibility for child nurture and outline relatively advanced methods whereby children were to be trained with kindness and firmness according to their respective abilities. For instance, the teachers were supposed to teach the art of prayer to boys and girls in their teens and "not to occupy the time of the children with long preaching since much reading and many quotations cannot be understood and grasped by them" (Schulordnung). Again, the teachers were admonished not to be harsh with little children "but rather to be sympathetic and longsuffering with them on account of their innocence and lack of understanding."
Following the harsher realism of Menno and Marpeck, the less-communal-type Anabaptist and Mennonite groups expressed more concern for programming a conversion experience marking the age of accountability in a child's maturation. In the 1980s, in Mennonite and Brethren in Christ circles, about 80 percent of the members experienced an identifiable occasion or period in life when Christ was accepted as Savior and a personal commitment to following him as Lord was made. The median age at which this commitment was made was 13.8 years for five contemporary groups, all of which have published statements on the conversion phenomenon in question. For instance, the statement on "The Nurture and Evangelism of Children" adopted by the Mennonite Church General Assembly (MC) in 1955 stated: "When the age of accountability arrives, a totally new spiritual situation arises. The individual now has a new sense of restlessness and guilt. He recognizes himself as a sinner. He stands in need of repentance, faith, and the new birth. As the Holy Spirit convicts, he may either yield to Christ or reject Him. Those receiving Christ are born again. Those rejecting Him lose their former saved status and are lost persons spiritually."
In sociological perspective, children tend to have the type of "conversion experience" for which they have been prepared and conditioned, and they tend to have this experience at the time this "rite of passage" is conventionally expected. With considerably more sensitivity to individual differences than the sociological perspective implies the Anabaptist-oriented "Foundation Series" Sunday school curriculum (1977) emphasized the nurture and instruction of children from preschool to adulthood in the constant and continuing context of the ongoing life of the congregation, to the end that "the children individually and corporately will freely respond to Jesus Christ in love, in faith, and in obedience, to the full extent of their ability."

At a friend's wedding last year, I was impressed that she had a fresh platter of mochi as part of her reception (It was in Maryland) I would also really like to get a platter of fresh mochi for my own wedding without breaking the bank. I might even consider them as favors.
Can you suggest anyplace I could get them in the Boston/New England area? I'm almost willing to ask a friend bring them up from NYC a few days beforehand if anyone has reccs there even. (Besides the pre-refrigerated ones at Hmart or C-Mart)

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer.
Should we contact the condo owner or are we prohibited?
Response: You can contact the owner for payment and see what happens. Do not be surprised if the designer has already been paid. If he has been paid and is filing for Chapter 13, he must list you on his Chapter 13 case as one of his creditors and you must be notified of the Chapter 13 filing. If he files the Chapter 13 case but you are not notified, make sure that you file Proof of Claim with the Bankruptcy Court assuming that you find out in time of the bankruptcy filing.
Once he files for bankruptcy protection, you cannot contact him or his attorney for payments. Contacting him at that time will be in violation of the bankruptcy code's automatic stay, which goes into effect when a bankruptcy case is filed. You have to file Proof of Claim with the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court would tell you if and when to file Proof of Claim. The Court has a form for this.

Raleigh, N.C. — The state Senate has given tentative approval to a bill that falls short of the grand overhaul of North Carolina's antiquated tax system but cuts rates for individuals and businesses.
After voting 32-15 Tuesday, Senators will vote a second time on Wednesday before sending the measure back to the House, which has pushed its own version of a tax bill this session.
"I wish we could get more, but I'll take what we can get," Sen. Buck Newton, R-Wilson, said.
In many respects, the bill passed Tuesday represents compromise with the state House. The proposed 5.75 percent personal income tax rate is a midway point between the House proposal and an earlier Senate draft. The Senate bill also backs off a plan to change how Social Security income is taxed and compromises on how the state would deal with sales taxes.
But the Senate bill still raises $1.5 billion less than the House plan would over the next five years, a gap that has been a sticking point in negotiations.
"There's been a good deal of work done on trying to find some common ground," Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger said.
Senators made one change to the bill that came out of committee Monday. They expanded a one-year cap on the state's gas tax to two years.
The measure drew condemnation from Democrats, who said it amounted to a tax cut for businesses and high-income earners that will come at the expense of lower-income citizens.
Changes to NC tax code near Senate passage
Analysis by the legislature's nonpartisan fiscal staff showed most taxpayers would pay less under the plan. However, individuals making $20,000 per year would pay slightly more – about $48 per year – under the plan. A couple married filing jointly earning a combined $40,000 would pay about $380 less per year.
"This bill is not tax reform," said Sen. Josh Stein, D-Wake. "This bill is a tax cut to the wealthy and out-of-state corporations."
Stein blasted the measure as not providing sufficient money for government services.
"Will we ever give the teachers of North Carolina pay raise again?," he said. "They're already 48th (in the nation). Do we want them to be 50th?"
That prompted Sen. Jerry Tillman, R-Randolph, to dismiss Stein as championing "liberal giveaway" programs.
"That money will be spent in the economy," Tillman said of the tax cuts.
Another focus of attack for Democrats were provisions in the bill that would cap the sales tax refund for nonprofit corporations at $2.85 million per year. That amount of refund would require a nonprofit to spend $40 million per year before they would exceed the cap on sales tax refunds.
Sen. Dan Blue, D-Wake, said such a rule "penalized success" of big nonprofits such as WakeMed and Rex Healthcare. Only about a dozen health systems and two universities – Duke and Wake Forest – would end up paying some sales tax under the rules.
"The ones that are above that threshold are institutions that are organized as nonprofits but are institutions that pay their (top) employees ... six- and seven-figure salaries," said Berger, R-Rockingham. "Those institutions, we felt, probably could withstand this."
The state House is not in session this week, so it was not immediately clear how top leaders in that chamber would react to the Senate bill.

Star-Crossed Hoofers
Forbidden passions, blood feuds and two well-armed families jockeying for political advantage. No, not Game of Thrones. It's Romeo and Juliet, the Shakespeare tragedy that choreographers just can't resist. Jerome Robbins used jazz dance in West Side Story to transport the suicidal lovers to the world of midcentury New York City street gangs, while in his Hollywood years, George Balanchine created a version pitting dancers in pointe shoes against tap dancers in dance duels. In that same inventive spirit, Blue 13's Achinta S. McDaniel and her Bollywood dancers teamed with So You Think You Can Dance hip-hop choreographer Sara Von Gillern and a crew of street dancers. The result, Fire and Powder, has Juliet with her hip-hop Capulet crew, while Romeo and his Montague clan bring Bollywood to the mix. The highly energized, very L.A. dance styles promise to be well-matched as they go toe-to-toe in this dance battle, which includes a nod to West Side Story. It's not required, but audience members can learn some of the choreography at youtube.com/blue13dancecompany, choose to side and sit with Team Capulet or Team Montague, and then stand and perform their side's moves during the show as part of a flash mob. Details on this and other imaginative participatory fun are atblue13dance.com. Preshow activities begin at 6:30 p.m. Ford Theaters, 2580 Cahuenga Blvd. E., Hlywd.; Sat., Aug. 3, 8:30 p.m.; $30-$45, $15 students, $12 children.

Second-year Tucson High School coach Justin Argraves doesn't know if his team will make the Division I playoffs.
However, thanks to a 45-14 win over Sunnyside on Friday night, he knows the Badgers still have a chance with one game left in the regular season.
Meanwhile, Sunnyside knows its season will likely end next week after the team's second loss in a row.
It was Tucson's fourth straight win and fifth in the last six games. The only loss in that stretch came at Sierra Vista Buena by three points, and Argraves said that made the team jell.
"It's tough to lose a game like that down there, but they have just responded by beating a good Mountain View team and now a good Sunnyside team," Argraves said. "The kids are playing well and I put it all on them and my assistant coaches."
Tucson (6-3) is No. 17 in Division I and ends its season at 2-7 Flowing Wells next week. Argraves said he doesn't even know if a win there would lock up a spot.
"Nobody knows how the chips are going to fall so all we have to worry about is coming back and beating Flowing Wells," he added
But, for now, the Badgers are going to enjoy a big win on senior night.
Tucson junior running back Donovan Moore took a direct snap 80 yards for a touchdown on the first play of the game to give the Badgers a 7-0 lead.
"I saw my blockers doing what I had to do to get to the end zone," Moore said. "Without them I wasn't going to get there. They kept blocking downfield and I just followed."
Then the defense forced Sunnyside to punt, but Levi Wallace fumbled on the return at his own 16. Two plays later, and after a false start, Daniel Bonn tied the game with a 22-yard touchdown run.
After Tucson went three-and-out, the Blue Devils took only two plays to go up 14-7 after quarterback Christian Oropeza scored on a 17-yard run with 7:36 left in the first quarter.
But after that the Blue Devils (5-4) failed to score again and the Badgers were just getting started. Argraves said it was also the best he's seen his defense play all year.
Tucson tied the game with 4:02 left in the quarter when senior quarterback Cam Volk dived in for a 6-yard touchdown.
The eight-play, 79-yard drive included a key scramble for 12 yards by Volk on third down.
Tucson took 21-14 lead with 4:07 left in the second quarter after Marcos Romero scored on a 3-yard run.
One play before his score, Volk connected with Demetrius Flannigan for a 22-yard gain on fourth-and-15.
Then with 39.2 seconds left before the half Volk hit Romero for a 45-yard touchdown making it 28-14.
Romero, who transferred out of Sunnyside after his freshman year, finished the game with 89 yards receiving and 85 yards rushing.
"For me coming from Sunnyside to put my team up like that I loved it," Romero said. "It was a big thing for us. We needed to beat Sunnyside."
Wallace ended Sunnyside's first possession of the second half with an interception and, eight plays later, Volk put the Badgers up 35-14 with a 4-yard run.
Later in the quarter, Wallace recovered a fumble by Bonn near midfield. Junior Markell Simmons capped that drive with an 11-yard TD late in the third.
To make matters worse for Sunnyside when the game was already out of hand, trainer Karina Garcia suffered an apparent panic attack and was taken away in an ambulance.
"That's really unfortunate, she's a great kid," coach Glenn Posey said.
Posey also said mistakes and lack of discipline hurt Sunnyside.
The Blue Devils are No. 19 in the Division I seedings and close the regular season at 14th-ranked Sierra Vista Buena next week.
"We'll see if we can spoil their party a little bit, but we haven't done a very good job the last couple of weeks," Posey said.

Rebecca's War Dog of the Week: Dog teams come to Washington
- By Thomas E. RicksThomas E. Ricks covered the U.S. military from 1991 to 2008 for the Wall Street Journal and then the Washington Post. He can be reached at email@example.com.

Best Defense Chief Canine Correspondent
In preparation for Monday's inauguration, when President Barack Obama will be sworn in for his second term in office, Washington, D.C. is tightening security across the board as it anticipates that upwards of 800,000 people will descend upon the city for the proceedings and celebrations. The Secret Service says it has "42 partners here — every law enforcement entity, every transportation entity, everyone that's got camera — we are utilizing." And that includes Military Working Dogs.
In addition to D.C. police dogs, canine teams from around the country will be joining in for the weekend for the extra-special POTUS mission. The Joint Task Force-National Capital Region/Military District of Washington has been "coordinating for [nearly 18] months with the Secret Service and FBI to plan for inauguration security," and that includes providing more dogs — 45 dog handlers to be exact.
CNN noted that when Thomas Jefferson was sworn into office, "he declined the seven horses and two carriages that were ready to ferry him from his boarding house to the Senate chamber where he would take the oath of office" and just walked. Hard to imagine that Obama could afford to do the same, even if escorted by all 45 dog teams.
And though these teams may not be charged with ferrying Obama safely from location to location, they will be on hand throughout the weekend conducting sweeps of the "parade grounds and the Capitol Building." On inauguration day they will be out in full force, on-hand and at the ready.

LOS ANGELES ( TheStreet) -- Since we first profiled Daily Journal ( DJCO) in October, the stock has risen 23%, doubling the pace of the Russell 2000 Index. The original thesis for this company still holds and TheStreet Ratings model still sees potential in this tiny publisher in a land of dinosaurs.Younger readers rely on the Internet for news and information instead of printed newspapers. It's a medium in which newspapers have a presence, but have not figured out how to monetize. As a result, newspapers are dying a slow death as their costs overwhelm their profits. Behemoths such as the New York Times ( NYT), Washington Post ( WPO) and McClatchy ( MNI) may go extinct soon if they can't reverse their downward trajectory. Los Angeles-based Daily Journal seems to be bucking that trend. This tiny publisher has a market cap of $97 million and an average trading volume of a mere 1,700 shares per day. There is little action in this stock, creating potential for big gains as more investors discover this gem. Daily Journal has avoided the pain that other news organizations have by targeting specialized content areas. Most publications it produces focus on California and small groups, such as lawyers and communities. This tactic has led to a profitable mix because local news coverage is weak online. The company also provides information services and software to courts and other agencies. Operating results for Daily Journal have been phenomenal. A return on equity of 19.4% with a net margin of 20.7% leaves the New York Times and Washington Post in the dust. In addition to strong operating results, the company lacks long-term debt and has a current ratio of 3.1, which suggests that Daily Journal is on strong footing. Helping to support this financial stability is an increasing cash balance and an investment in marketable securities that has risen during the bull market of 2009. Daily Journal has over $3 million in cash and another $59.8 million in short-term investments. The financial situation at Daily Journal is nearly picture perfect. Investing in a company with no debt and such fantastic returns is not a typical opportunity, especially in an industry like newspapers, where financial instability is ubiquitous.

Zeta-Jones and Douglas 'split'
Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones have allegedly been living separate lives since May.
Speculation has been rife that their marriage is on the rocks, with the couple not seen out together since April. It has now been alleged that Michael and Catherine have decided to spend time apart to consider their future.
"They're taking a break," a source told PEOPLE.
The magazine claims that divorce papers have not been filed and there hasn't yet been a move to legally separate.
It has been suggested that health battles have put a strain on the relationship.
In 2010 Michael was diagnosed with throat cancer, while Catherine has sought treatment for bipolar II disorder.
"The stress has taken a toll on their marriage," a friend explained.
According to PEOPLE, the pair decided to take a break after Michael returned from the Cannes Film Festival in May. This coincided with 43-year-old Catherine completing another stint in a mental health facility.
There is still hope the stars can find a way to save their marriage. Sources close to the couple believe they can still resolve their issues and remain together for the sake of their two children, Dylan, 13, and Carys, ten.
"They want the best for their kids, no matter what happens," a source added.
Catherine and Michael married in November 2000, and the brunette previously revealed she found divorces "repulsive" and insisted it was "in her genes" to remain married for life.
Michael, 68, is currently holidaying in Sardinia, while Catherine is in New York with the kids.
Catherine recently admitted she wasn't spending much time with her husband, fuelling rumours about their marriage.
"Michael's doing a movie on the East Coast with Diane Keaton, so he's working," Catherine told ET Online. "My children are actually at sleep-away camp, so I'm missing them desperately."

Target: Darrell Kopke, CEO of Kit and Ace
Goal: Do not brutally murder animals for fur.
A Canadian company allegedly tortures and kills canines in order to add unnecessary material to clothing. We need to take action to better ensure these animals are treated humanely. The company is accused of crowding animals in cages that are too small, stepping on them with force, and mercilessly skinning them alive. It is pretty disgusting to realize that animals are likely being tortured for the sole purpose of making fashionable hats.
The company, Kit and Ace, is reportedly making hats with pom-poms that are made out of Asian raccoon. The Asian raccoon, also known as a raccoon dog, is actually part of the canine family. According to the Vancouver Humane Society, the company is purposely placing the label "Asiatic raccoon" on their product labels so that people will be less likely to realize the animal is more closely related to the domestic dog than it is to the raccoon. They further explain that such knowledge would put a dent in sales.
Demand that this company not use animals to make their products and, if any animals are in company care, ensure that they be immediately released to a proper sanctuary. Many more innocent creatures may suffer if steps are not taken to ensure the safety of these innocent creatures.
Dear Mr. Kopke,
It has been alleged that your company is responsible for torturing and killing animals that belong to the canine family in order to use their fur for your products. It is more important that animals be treated humanely than it is for their fur to be used to make a fashion statement.
The Vancouver Humane Society surmises that your products are labeled as "Asiatic raccoon" because you don't want people to realize the animal is more closely related to the domestic dog than it is to the raccoon.
It has also been reported that the animals you use to make your products in China are stuffed in cages that are too small and then allegedly stomped on and skinned alive. Terrorizing and killing animals to make hats is completely unacceptable.
If your company has any ethics at all, you will not allow animals to be killed for the purpose of making or designing clothes. I demand that you do not make any products out of fur and that you further release any animals under company care to a proper sanctuary. Animals deserve to live in a safe and tranquil environment, not to be worn on someone's head and then tossed in the closet and forgotten about.

Boy Names for A Girl
Hello there, we're expecting our second child, (and we have two from previous relationships), and are having trouble agreeing on any sort of name save for both liking boy names for girls.
For example, he likes 'Sam', or rather Samantha... But I dislike Samantha. I'd like a boy name, not a girls name with a boy nickname.
Any suggestions for other boy names for girls? I knew a female Randy, and while I adore Charlie, he does not.

I see you're fairly new to Nameberry... Just a warning, boys' names on girls are VERY contentious on Nameberry and a lot of people are strongly against them. That doesn't mean you're bad or wrong for liking them, just be prepared for the reactions. (Personally, they're not my style but I see no problem with them.)
Girls' names with boyish nicknames:
Charlotte- Charlie
Georgia/Georgina/Georgiana- George, Georgy
Judith- Jude
Julia/Juliana/Juliet- Jules
Josephine/Joanna- Joe
Harriet- Harry
Henrietta- Henry
Theodora- Theo

Ariadne- Ari
Aurora- Rory
Philippa/Philomena- Phil
Cordelia/Cornelia- Cory
Danielle/Daniella- Dan
Gabrielle/Gabriella- Gabe
Davina- Dave
Christine/Christina/Christa- Chris
Michaela- Mick/Mike
Unisex names*:
Ashley/Ashton- and has unisex nn Ash
Mitchell (I love this on a girl because of Margaret Mitchell, but I seem to be the only one. Has feminine nn Ellie.)
*I'd consider these unisex. Others may not agree.~Love names, literature, royals and horses~ <3

Kung Hei Fat Choi! Chuc Mung Nam Oi!
Or for those of us who speak neither Chinese nor Vietnamese: Happy New Year!
This means party time in all Asian countries that follow the lunar calendar such as China, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines - as well as in Chinatowns all over the world. Each year the Chinese New Year celebrations (known as Tet in Vietnam and Bagong Taon ng mga Tsino in the Philipines) take place around the end of January and the beginning of February, depending on when the second new moon after the Winter Solstice will appear in the night sky, and signify the beginning of spring, ready to be sprung. On Friday 31 January 2014 we bid farewell to the Year of the Snake as we enter the Chinese Year of the Horse. The shindig usually lasts three days, whilst families reunite, eat together, wish each other and their neighbours good health and good fortune and clean their houses. And just as dust is banished with a brush, past problems are forgotten and swept away leaving the future full of hope.
If you want to immerse yourself in a full-on festival it's a great time to be in an Asian country. Alternatively a visit to your nearest Chinatown will give you a crowded, noisy and colourful flavour of the Orient, complete with Chinese dragons, lion dances, firecrackers and acrobatics, not to mention plenty of delicious spring rolls and noodles to nibble on. In London, celebrations start with a parade through Trafalgar Square on the morning of Sunday 4 February.
Now for the Horoscope bit…
Those born in the Year of the Horse (1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002 and 2014) are an active bunch. They like to be out and about, looking good and practicing their quick wits. They are energetic and independent, yet would give everything up for love, as long as their reins are not held too tightly… Famous Horses include: Barbara Streisand, John Travolta and Genghis Khan of all people!
Now for the travel bit…
On a global level there may well be more change a foot as the impulsiveness of the Horse takes on a new energy. In short, 2014 will be a wild ride. This is a year that brings energy and is an excellent time for travel and for adventure – the more unusual the destination, the better. Here at Explore we have a few suggestions we can help you with, both in Asia and the rest of the world. This is the year to make plans a reality. So if you have been putting off walking the Great Wall of China; or have dreamt of seeing the 2000-year-old rice terraces of the Philippines; or wondered what it would be like to sleep in a safari tent outside one of Angkor's temples in Cambodia; or wished you had travelled downriver into the heart of Thailand in a rice barge; or wanted to see for yourself the huge Buddhist monument of Borobodur in Indonesia that was lost under a layer of volcanic ash for 900 years; or fancied getting up close and personal with an orang-utan in Malaysia's Borneo; or fancied nibbling on street food in Hanoi's Old Quarter in Vietnam; or ever wondered what it would be like to stand on the shores of Sun Moon Lake in Taiwan... this is the year to make it happen.
Happy Year of the Horse to all!

Cw44.com - The CW television network affiliate located in Tampa, FL
CW 44 Tampa: Home Page
Excerpted from the website:
- WTOG-TV first began operations on November 4, 1968, broadcasting on UHF channel 44. Originally owned my Minnesota-based Hubbard Broadcasting Corp., WTOG solidified itself in the Tampa Bay market by being the area's only independent television station. With broadcast coverage reaching throughout central and southwest Florida, WTOG was billed "Florida's Super Station" and quickly grew into one of the most profitable television stations in the country. In fact, it was this profitability that drew the attention of future media mogul Ted Turner, who many believed modeled WTBS in Atlanta after WTOG.

I'd like to know if anyone has any first hand knowledge of this company. I'm interested in purchasing a firearm from them soon. However, when I tried looking up them on the internet (web site, etc), telephone number (www.411.com), I couldn't find any info on them. Anyone purchase something from them or know about them. I think they are in Nevada. P.S. I looked in the "search" and found one string on them but no one seemed to have had business with them. Appreciate any comments.
