TITLE: Tea & Crumpets, Recipes & Rituals from European Tearooms & Cafes by Margaret M. Johnson (Chronicle Books, 19.95)
Generally speaking: These are not your grandmother's tea party recipes; Tea & Crumpets takes afternoon tea to the next level. While perusing the recipes, enjoy interesting tidbits about such topics as the Twinings tea company, the difference between afternoon tea and high tea and famous tea rooms.
For: You'd think this cookbook would be primarily for tea lovers. Not so. There are interesting recipes that, yes, while delicious with tea, would be well suited to other gatherings. Think sandwich, cake and cookies recipes for a baby or bridal shower.
Recipes: Leek and Stilton tartlets, poached lobster with mini molten cheese souffles, Earl Grey chocolate mousse, extreme biscuit brownie, raisin apple scones, petite blueberry cakes and crumpets.
TITLE: Down Home With the Neelys, A Southern Family Cookbook by Patrick and Gina Neely with Paula Disbrowe (Alfred A. Knopf, $27.95)
Generally speaking: The recipes are mouth-watering and the photos make you hungry. Food Network stars Pat and Gina Neely know Southern cooking. The Neelys are famous for barbecue, but this cookbook is more than barbecue. Inside you'll find recipes for delicious side dishes, starters, desserts and libations.
For: It would make sense that you'd have to love barbecue to enjoy this cookbook. The sides, desserts and others recipes have more wide appeal.
Recipes: Momma Daisy's buttermilk biscuits, fried catfish sandwich with sweet pickle mayonnaise, Memphis-style tips with beer and molasses, boozy baked apples, Nana's caramel pecan rolls, fresh peach sangria.
TITLE: Memorable Recipes To Share With Family and Friends by Renee Behnke with Cynthia Nims (Andrews McMeel Publishing, $35)
Generally Speaking: These upscale recipes are for special occasions, not your everyday weeknight suppers. Many recipes have long ingredient lists (some of which are expensive or not often used) and involved instructions. While some recipes will appeal to the masses, many will not.
For: Adventurous cooks who have time to search for unusual ingredients like zucchini blossoms and nasturtium blossoms. Often unusual translates to expensive.
Recipes: Cheese-stuffed zucchini blossoms, sesame-crusted tuna with soy mustard sauce, herb-rubbed lamb chops with raita, white bean and watercress gratin, garlic and herb baked artichokes, ginger cake with lemon glaze, zucchini fritters.

[Richard Feist for CP] Introduction article
Hello there Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am writing this article to inform you, the great members of the eUK that I have decided to this term run for Country President. There is great work still to be done here and I am stepping up to give my all for Queen and country.
First I would like to tell those of you that don't know me a little bit more about myself. I have been UKPP PP twice in the past and during this time we brought around a change in the mentality of the UKPP and get a bit more involved in politics and discussion to have our points heard. I will not take the credit for this fully as it was a huge team effort but I was there and helping to coordinate this. I have also more recently been the vCP this past term. This has taught me the inner working of the government and how to interact with other countries at the international level and within our alliance TWO. This could help with a calm and seamless transition of governments. On the military side of things I have been a Captain in both the RN and the DC since my first month in the game. This shows that I am active and regularly online to change the DO. This will be applied to the national level as CP as I will come online and change it accordingly.
I believe that the eUK needs a calm, level headed and someone who has an idea already of what they want to do and the knowhow of how to do it. I have shown in the past to be a person that does not get easily draw into confrontation between individuals and groups. I will not rush into decisions until I have all of the information available to make the best decision for the eUK. I also believe that I have the right level of experience at a high level as vCP this month. I also believe that combined with this I am young and fresh enough to be able to re-energise the Cabinet and therefore the Country. I also feel that I have the right balance of respect for both sides of the political divide to be in a good position to bring them both together.
In the last two months we've had a lot of highs and lows, having been taken on a rollercoaster ride by our current president Bigant. He has brought us some good times, some laughs, and plenty of entertainment, but all of that comes at a cost.
I believe that this next term we need to assess the finances available to us as a country. Now we all wish, me included that the eUK was wealthy and had a infinite amount of capital to throw at fighting constant wars but this unfortunately is not the case. Now the other candidates have both picked up on this fact and this is good as it is both an important issue and one that should be sorted no matter which candidate wins in that case. This means the eUK will benefit no matter what which is always good
😃Now the figure being thrown around at the moment for total loss this past term financially is 200,000 cc. There was also a loss of 400,000 cc the term before.This would appear to show a very bad and rightly so couple of figures. I believe that with careful management and cutbacks in sections that we can afford it but at the same time not damaging the eUK in the long run I believe we can start to right this deficit.
Another sour point in the past term was the damage to the eUK politically, this has not just been on a national level but also on an international one. There has been small problems caused by events both within our control out of it. I believe that a good proportion of our effort this coming month needs to be spent on improving our standing in the eWorld and enhancing our prestige.
Guess which power ranger ready to save the eUK is RFeist. First person to guess the colour of the ranger right receives 5 Q7 (just a fun game and a showing of things to come)
I hope you enjoyed this article and there will be 3 further articles to explain my manifesto in more detail and to try and show you why I would be a great CP for you, the citizens of the eUK.
Regards Richard Feist
If you have any further questions that you would like to ask me feel free to drop me a private message.
I can assure you that I think it is possible for me to win and that I have not intentionally intended for Alfa to have his campaign destroyed!
First rule of CP-ship (should you get it) Richard - don't reply to trolling on your own articles!
Good luck, and may the best candidate win.
"start to right this defecate" (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/defecate)
other than that good luck! xD

I bet all kinds of monitoring is going on through the Internet about its users that doesn't require one iota of evidence for probable cause or a warrant to be issued to spy on them. I know it is for marketing but I'm pretty sure for other reasons as well.
There has been great expenditure of time and our money to sniff our nether regions by the government, and they have stated that intent.
I assume they are going to read, or at least can read whatever communications I have via any electronic device.
When a government claims dominion over your diet, your toilet, and the light bulbs in your house, any invasiveness which does not require them to be doctors is open, and they want the doctors to do the rest.
All that kept the Nazis and the Soviets form keeping such records and snooping at that level was the absence of the automated systems (computers) to carry out the task. We are far beyond their levels of snooping in most of the country.
Wave to the suit behind the screen - yoohoo, how ya doin' today, dude!
Hopefully this is no surprise to anyone.
I will continue to support The Oath Keepers, and the Constitutional Sheriff and Peace Officer Association while working at the local level of government to do whatever I can. I feel this is an important part of preparing for whatever we face in the near future. It's encouraging to see how these types of mainstream patriot groups have been growing. I have no doubt whatsoever that these groups are watched by our government, but there isn't just a public face reflective of their membership, but also those like-minded patriots familiar with these movements, but intentionally not linked to them for obvious reasons. Both the public and private face of these movements are vital for success. Everyone can help save this nation, and no one should ever downplay the influence they have.

Not very secret is it?
You have to assume that they can find out anything they want anytime they want. What brand toothpaste do I use?
It's clearly evident most people have a herd mentality, going where ever they are corralled. Those that escape are rounded up and branded.
There is more truth than satire in this video.
Hasn't really been a secret in a long time.
Take the Bing vs. Google challenge. I bet you will like Bing as well or better than Google.
I guarantee you guys that the fed monster actively scrapes FR to keep close tabs on us, the ungovernable. In light of that, let me just say that I think that people who work for the government spying on good God fearing citizens are the lowest scum of the pond. Say hi to Beelzy when you meet him.
Didn't some Google execs participate in the Egyptian revolution?
Considering Barry's love for Islam this doesn't surprise me that they were chosen as 'comrades'...
Wouldn't surprise me if both Google creators were working under contract with the U.S. Government from day one.

text: Here's an interesting article on the rise of Crowdfunding in 2012 led by Kickstarter. The article points out that while the popularity of crowdfunding is on the rise, the majority of projects on Kickstarter do not meet their goals. "Eleven-percent of projects never received any funding and 34% garnered less than 20%. But 17 projects out of over 81,000 earned more than a million. Those superstar projects give hope to fledgling startups that they too could catch the eye of the community and skyrocket to popularity." Read more.

Ben Glardon understands just how precious life is and that it is a gift from God. When Ben and his wife Miriam were unable to conceive a child they adopted their twelve year old daughter Madison at birth. They know first-hand that adoption is always a viable option and that abortion is an unnecessary and wrongful act. He also knows that being a strong pro-life leader means opposing embryonic stem cell research and protecting the rights of our elderly population. As our State Representative, you can count on Ben Glardon to be a strong advocate for the protection of life at all stages. Ben Glardon's position on life is so strong that he has met the endorsement criteria for both Michigan Right to Life and Citizens for Traditional Values.

Brandeis University in Massachusetts announced Tuesday that it had withdrawn the planned awarding of an honorary degree to Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a staunch critic of Islam and its treatment of women, after protests from students and faculty.Brandeis University: siding with those who want to set back women to the stone age in the name of political correctness!
The university said in a statement posted online that the decision had been made after a discussion between Ali and university President Frederick Lawrence.
"She is a compelling public figure and advocate for women's rights, and we respect and appreciate her work to protect and defend the rights of women and girls throughout the world," said the university's statement. "That said, we cannot overlook certain of her past statements that are inconsistent with Brandeis University's core values."
Ali, a member of the Dutch Parliament from 2003 to 2006, has been quoted as making comments critical of Islam. That includes a 2007 interview with Reason Magazine in which she said of the religion, "Once it's defeated, it can mutate into something peaceful. It's very difficult to even talk about peace now. They're not interested in peace. I think that we are at war with Islam. And there's no middle ground in wars."

There's a lot of buzz surrounding Jake Gyllenhaal's new movie role.
After all, the 30-year-old actor shaved his head for End of Watch, a police drama costarring Michael Pena. Though filming doesn't begin until July, Gyllenhaal and Pena, 35, shot promos for the movie in L.A. last week.
This isn't the first time Gyllenhaal has lost his locks for a role; in 2005, he shaved his head to play Marine Anthony Swofford in Jarhead.

Islamabad, July 17 (ANI): The Pakistan military has decided to join the investigations of Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) into the November 2007 emergency rule imposed during the reign of General (retd) Pervez Musharraf.
Army's judge advocate general (JAG) would join the investigation team to assist in the case, the sources in FIA revealed.
The Nation reports that the FIA team wanted to have an access to the minutes of the meeting that was attended by then government and military officials before the promulgation of emergency.
According to the report, FIA team was also preparing the lists of those civilian bureaucrats who were appointed at key posts at the time of imposition of emergency to ascertain from where they were getting directions to implement the decisions.
FIA team headed by its Additional Director General Khalid Qureshi had written a letter to the Ministry of Interior requesting that the incumbent government and the army should be asked to appoint focal persons to probe the high profile case. (ANI)

T-G Staff Writer
Trailing his opponent in campaign fundraising, congressional candidate Kirk Schuring on Thursday called for local voters to help support him all the way to Washington, D.C.
A Republican state senator from Canton, Schuring rode into Ashland on the "Spirit of 16" express for a local campaign stop. The white bus has carried him, campaign members and supporters across Ohio's 16th Congressional District.
Days before the election, he said his campaign faces a 7-to-1 spending deficit compared to his Democratic counterpart. However, he urged voters to press on as Election Day approaches. Schuring addressed a crowd of about two dozen at Fin Feather & Fur Outfitters before moving to Lyn-Way Restaurant to mingle with potential constituents.
Schuring is running against state Sen. John Boccieri of Alliance to replace U.S. Rep. Ralph Regula, R-Navarre, who has served the 16th District for 36 years. While discussing issues with voters at Fin Feather & Fur, he pledged to faithfully serve the district and the country if elected.
"I will remind everybody I'm just the face and the name associated with this race," Schuring said. "This race is all about you and the values we all hold so sacred and so dear."
State Rep. Bob Gibbs, R-Lakeville, a candidate for the 22nd state Senate seat, traveled with Schuring to support his campaign. Holmes County Commissioner Dave Hall, a candidate for the 97th state representative position currently held by Gibbs, also joined Schuring.
Anthony Conchel, Schuring's communications director, said the campaign has been busy. He said Schuring and supporters knocked on more than 1,500 doors Thursday.
Schuring assailed Boccieri about his residency. He noted his opponent moved into the 16th District earlier this year while Schuring is a lifelong resident. Schuring noted much of Boccieri's funding has come from donors outside the district. The 16th District includes all of Stark and Wayne counties as well as most of Medina and all Ashland except the northern six townships.
"He couldn't even vote for himself in the Democratic primary back in March," he said of Boccieri.
The Republican chided Democrats for political advertisements that he said are misleading. Responding to ads that say Schuring voted to grant himself a large raise, the state senator said the case is actually quite the contrary.
"I'm the only senator in the state of Ohio that hasn't taken my pay raise over the last five years," he said, adding that forfeiting raises has cost him $24,000 in personal income, and "because of that I'm the lowest-paid legislator in the entire state of Ohio."
As for another commercial that said he skipped out on Ohio Turnpike Commission meetings, Schuring said the appointed position had no voting authority. He said his seat on the commission was a "ceremonial position" and believes he was better off "working for the people in my district" rather than spending valuable time serving in that position.
Schuring said if he's elected he'll bring "fresh ideas" to improve America's economic situation while remaining accessible to constituents.
"You know, those fresh ideas are only good if they're rooted in common sense," Schuring said. "And to me, the best way to make sure you're on firm ground with common sense is to stay close to the people back home."

Universal Background Checks....

The problem with mandatory background checks is the stigma of labeling the firearm as an object of evil, that we must determine that the end user has good intentions before trusting them with such devices. Society has moved this direction already. Look at the implementation of "gun free zones" and outlawing the practice of certain types of carry or magazines and ergonomic/cosmetic features. The object itself has been condemned as a means of destruction rather than salvation which is the status it should hold as per the founders in their provision of the second amendment. Thomas Jefferson and George Washington spoke highly of firearms as liberty's teeth and the means by which man maintains his freedom. Background checks are the foot in the door that could be the vehicle for further infringement of persons to exercise their right.
The biggest issue at hand, as is evidenced by the recent tragedies, is classifications of mental illness and how it will impact our ability to own firearms. Diagnosing a mental illness may take weeks and even then the initial diagnosis may be incorrect thanks to the myriad of symptoms that overlap. Someone with dissociative identity disorder being diagnosed with schizophrenia will forever carry the label of schizophrenic in their medical history. A major depressive episode diagnosis could follow you and interfere with purchases, all because your mother passed after a battle with cancer and you were grief stricken for a month. Who decides what mental illnesses prevent firearm ownership and what happens with a misdiagnosis? Who also decides which of us needs a psychological evaluation to determine competency to own and operate a firearm? I certainly don't want the government making those decisions, much less letting the IRS have control of my healthcare. (Oh, wait, too late...

What are some of the character traits of Ponyboy in The Outsiders and some quotes to prove them?I need to do my literature essay, so i have to collect some more information about Ponyboy.
The narrator of The Outsiders, Ponyboy Curtis is an introspective teenager, still dealing with the death of his parents in a car crash. The most intelligent boy among his gang of greasers, Pony excels at school, where he is also a member of the track team. A sensitive boy who enjoys being alone when he can, Ponyboy loves to read and he has a talent for writing; he also "digs" sunsets and watching Paul Newman movies. He smokes too many cigarettes, according to older brother Darry, and he often makes decisions that show a lack of common sense. His brothers and greaser friends alike see a bright future for Ponyboy, and there is hope that he will be able to attend college after high school. But they also worry that Ponyboy will eventually grow "tough" on the streets as many of the other greasers--particularly Dallas Winston--have. As Two-Bit Mathews tells him,
"... don't get tough, Ponyboy. You're not like the rest of us and don't try to be..."
When Pony and Johnny come to the rescue of the children in the burning church, they are acclaimed as heroes. But Pony doesn't think so. When Jerry, who was supervising the picnic at the church, asks if
"... you were sent from heaven. Or are you just professional heroes or something?"
Pony simply responds that "we're greasers."
Johnny's dying words to Pony are "stay gold," referring to the Robert Frost poem which the two boys had discussed. Pony's life seems to be crumbling after the deaths of Johnny and Dallas, but when his teacher gives him a second chance to complete his English essay, Pony decides to tell his side of the story--which becomes the basis for The Outsiders.

Moscow (Nov. 18)
(Jewish Telegraphic Agency Mail Service)
Dr. Paul Nathan, the representative of the Hilfsverein der deutschen Juden at the Jewish Colonization Conference here, stated to the representative of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency here that the Jewish Colonization movement in Russia is one which deserved the greatest attention and all possible sympathy. The transference of a considerable number of Jews to agriculture, Dr. Nathan said, would create for them not only a sound economic basis but also a healthy mental attitude. "Under present conditions the Jews ought to make every effort to transfer their activities to productive work. It is not to be expected that all Russian Jews would become farm workers. Side by side with the land settlement work, they should also pay attention to the development of handicraft among the Jews and should make efforts to bring the Jewish workers into big industry.
"If the Soviet Government," Dr. Nathan went on, "continues to be as friendly to the Jews as it has been so far, the Jews will have every opportunity of becoming productive. It is especially important that more and more Jews should leave the old Pale of Settlement and disperse themselves over the whole length and breadth of the country. This would not only improve the economic position of the Jews, but it would also protect the Jews from those terrible catastrophes which overwhelmed them during the War and the Civil War because they are living concentrated in compact masses. These catastrophies," he said, "would not have been so immense if all the Jews were not herded together in one area. Wars and disturbances are likely also in the future and efforts should be made that the Jews who are generally the first to fall victims to disturbances and catastrophes should suffer from them as little as possible. This can be only if they are not all concentrated in one sport," he declared.
With regard to the question of whether Jewish colonization in Russia could be said to be in competition to the Zionist movement, Dr. Nathan said that there could be no question of competition. From the national point of view he believes that Palestine will not become a Jewish home. "Britain will never give up Palestine to the Jews and even if she did the Jews would not be able to retain it, because they would always be a minority there," he concluded.

U.S. stocks were mixed late Wednesday afternoon as a survey on hiring did little to ease uncertainty over the health of the economy.
The market was recovering from earlier declines that pulled down consumer products, transportation and technology companies, and effectively wiped out modest gains from a day earlier.
KEEPING SCORE: The Dow Jones industrial average teetered between slight gains and losses all afternoon. It was down two points, or 0.0 percent, to 15,442 at 3:07 p.m. Eastern time. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was down three points, or 0.2 percent, at 1,751. The Nasdaq composite fell 19 points, or 0.5 percent, to 4,011.

What's being said
Congratulations to law firms that do more than their share. Thank you to firms that have new and meaningful pro bono commitments in place. And a proclamation of courage is due in New York for requiring pro bono as a condition for bar admission.
Inspirational leadership comes from law schools that integrate pro bono into the curriculum and culture - making sure students understand, embrace and carry forward the social responsibility of pro bono throughout their careers. Moreover, hats off to law schools that take a holistic approach by working with medical schools to create student teams that collaboratively solve the interrelated health and legal needs of underserved populations. Check out these examples in an article by UC Davis medical school Dean Claire Pomeroy http://www.beckershospitalreview.com/hospital-management-administration/fixing-americas-health-and-legal-services-safety-net.html and the Center for medical-legal partnership. http://www.medical-legalpartnership.org/ It is time for everyone to make a difference.

High-quality silage needs attention starting the day it is harvested until the day it is fed, according to University of Delaware researcher and silage expert Limin Kung.
Kung told the audience at the recent Dairy Calf and Heifer Association Annual Conference in Green Bay, Wis., that one misconception about silage quality is that molds cause spoilage. "Molds are not the reason silage spoils," he said. "Spoilage actually is caused by yeasts that proliferate when silage is exposed to oxygen."
That's why anaerobic sealing and careful face management at feed-out are so important. Other advice he shared for harvesting and preserving high-quality silage include:
- Harvest corn silage at an ideal dry matter of 32-36%. Harvesting too early (28-30% DM) can create high acetic acid levels; too-rapid fermentation; low starch; and seepage. Harvesting too late (over 40% DM) causes reduced fiber digestibility; low acid; poor packing and poor aerobic stability.
- Use kernel processing to improve energy availability plus increase packing density.
- Use an L. buchneri inoculant to promote stability.
- Add a second layer of plastic to thoroughly seal bunkers.
When silage does spoil, Kung's advice is to dispose of it. Based on his research, "it's not even good feed for steers," he said.

Last Minute Beach Body Workout8 beach body exercises for that will incinerate fat and tighten muscle in record time
Hold a pair of dumbbells and stand facing a bench or step. Put your left foot on the bench (A), push down through your left heel, and lift your right leg up (B). Return to start. That's 1 rep. Do 8 reps leading with your left leg, then 8 reps leading with your right leg.
Start in pushup position with your shins resting on a stability ball (A). Brace your abs and keep your legs straight as you raise your hips toward the ceiling, drawing the ball toward your arms (B). Hold for 1 second and roll back to start. That's 1 rep. Do 10.

Lie on the floor, calves on top of the ball. Squeeze your glutes and raise your hips (A). Bend your knees to roll the ball toward you (B). Straighten your legs to roll the ball back, then lower your body to the floor. That's 1 rep. Do 10 to 15.
Place your left knee and left hand on a bench. Hold a dumbbell in your right hand, palm facing the bench (A). Slowly bend your elbow and pull the dumbbell up as far toward your shoulder as possible (B). Pause, then lower the dumbbell back to start. That's 1 rep. Do 12 on each side.
Start at the top of the pushup position (A). Keeping your abs braced, pick up your right foot and slowly bring your right knee toward your left shoulder (B). Return to start. Alternate legs until you complete 12 reps per leg.
Stand with your feet hip-width apart (A). Step forward with your left leg, bending your left knee until both legs form 90-degree angles—your right knee should nearly touch the floor (B).

Timothy OakesAll right. Thank you, Shirley, and good morning, everyone. Total revenue for the second quarter was $27.2 million, compared to $27.4 million in the second quarter of 2011. Although total revenue was down slightly year-over-year, we think it's important to note that we're comping against the second quarter of 2011, which included $2.2 million in royalty revenues in connection with Fullscope's pre-acquisition sale of Microsoft Dynamics AX related discrete in process manufacturing software modules that occurred in June of 2009. Royalty and service revenues earned in connection with the process related contracts expired in June of 2011; as such we will not be comping against them on a go-forward basis. Excluding the process-related royalties total revenues actually increased 8% in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011. Service revenue was $21.6 million during the second quarter, growing 16% compared to the year ago quarter. As Shirley mentioned this growth was entirely organic and which primarily driven by demand for Oracle and Microsoft products-based consulting service offerings. Software revenue which includes related maintenance revenue was $3.6 million during the second quarter, compared to $4.7 million during the second quarter of 2011, our quarterly software revenue primarily consists resales of Microsoft Dynamics AX software and maintenance. The comparative decrease in quarterly software revenue, reflects the fact that we were not able to successfully bring closure to several deals that we're in process at the end of the quarter. While the future closure of these deals remain uncertain at this time, we continue to actively pursue a healthy amount of software deals as we enter the third quarter. As we always do, we would like to remind you that quarterly software revenue is volatile and it's subject to customer demand and that respective quarters – typically the strongest software quarter for us as it coincides with Microsoft fiscal yearend.

My life has no meaning any more.
Digging: The Contortionist - Clairvoyant
Drummerboy123 you have to admit it. Spencer clean vocals are some sort of hybrid between chester and rody walker. Spencer is not that bad as many people says but he needs to improve, he has a catchy voice but in some moments could get annoying , also everybody knows that the main strength of periphery is the instrumental part. Besides, don't take too seriously the hate against Periphery and LP, if you enjoy the works of both bands that's all you have to care about, the opinion of the others is worthless specially if the haters are fans of lame acts like fall out cunt, pussies at the disco,I see stars, escape the fag, lol gayne, lil b, gucci mane, justin beiber, lady gaga and nicki minaj like the 30 per cent of the people in this website(I even found here a cunt that defends Hollywood undead and Insane Clown Posse but said that mike shinoda, styles of beyond and the roots sucks dick). Linkin since hybrid theory ep until meteora rules hard ( I fuckin adore Hybrid Theory), then they became a hit or miss band.

Spencer isn't a bad vocalist, he just makes himself bad by trying to sing like Rody Walker doing Christina Aguilara songs.
Album Rating: 2.0No he's just pretty bad.
He wasn't that bad on Periphery I from what I've heard and the few songs I like from it.
Album Rating: 2.0I think he sucks. But then again I just think this band sucks.
They're talented musicians, that's a fact. The music is either love or hate for most, some of it is okay it's just not really what I care to listen to, lacks substance.
Album Rating: 4.0I enjoyed Linkin Park back in the day, all their stuff up until that jay z piece of garbage. Its not something i would listen to today, not frequently, but i still enjoy the hell out of it and that earns the band a lot of my respect. But they just lost themselves. Like most of the mainstream bands today.
Now, Periphery are WAY better then them, in every sense and always were. The only genres actually worth going over in terms of musicianship are Metal/Rock, Jazz and derivated subgenres of said genres.
Album Rating: 2.5
The only genres actually worth going over in terms of musicianship are Metal/Rock, Jazz and derivated subgenres of said genres.
Album Rating: 1.5well now...
I guess instrumental music like post rock and electronic don't count either.
The only genres actually worth going over in terms of musicianship are Metal/Rock, Jazz and derivated subgenres of said genres.
Is this for real?

Visa and MasterCard… these two brands are often used interchangeably. However, they are two very different companies in the global payments arena. What are their differences and similarities? What are the pros and cons of each? Find out in our MasterCard vs Visa showdown updated for 2015…
Round One: Size of Company
First, let's take a look at Visa's basic stats:
Stock Symbol: V
Marketcap (size of company): $162.9 billion
Number of U.S. Visa credit cards: 278 million
Number of U.S. Visa debit cards: 428 million
And versus MasterCard…
Stock Symbol: MA
Marketcap: $99.8 billion
Number of U.S. MasterCard credit cards: 178 million
Number of U.S. MasterCard debit cards: 144 million
Winner? For this portion of the contest where size matters, Visa is the clear winner.
Round Two: card acceptance
Visa: The company reports being accepted in more than 200 countries by more than 30 million merchants. They also claim that cardmembers could get ATM cash advances at over 1.4 million locations across the globe.
MasterCard: They claim to be accepted in 210 countries "and territories" at over 30 million merchants. Their network of ATMs reportedly consists of around 1.5 million locations.
Winner? This one is a toss up. They're both accepted in about the same number of countries and have roughly the same numbers when it comes to merchant locations.
Round Three: Who has The best credit cards?
MasterCard and Visa don't actually issue cards… they are just the payment networks that transactions are processed over. So ultimately, things like credit card rewards, benefits, customer service and billing practices etc. are the responsibility of the issuing bank. The six largest credit card issuers (based on dollar amount of outstanding card balances) that issue Visa and/or MasterCard are: Chase, Bank of America, Citibank, Capital One, Barclays and Wells Fargo.
So which of these two global payment processing brands has the best credit cards? Unfortunately, there's no one-size-fits-all answer. It really depends on what you are looking for in terms of specific features. For example, some banks have good reward credit cards branded as Visa cards, while others have good ones branded as MasterCard. With these two brands it can really come down to the issuer and not the network to tip the scales one way or the other.
Winner? Another tie. Since the rewards and benefits are determined by the bank, ultimately it is the issuing bank that controls if a particular credit card is good or not.
Final Round: Who wins For 2016?
Regardless of where you live there really is no reason to choose MasterCard versus a Visa card (or vice-versa). It's really just a matter of brand preference (as when choosing between Coke and Pepsi) and the features a particular issuing bank offers with the cards they offer. So, look beyond the logos and choose based on rewards, benefits, and interest rates rather than the logo emblem that happens to be on the front of the card.

Spanish police break Russian mafia money laundering ring
Spanish police arrested four people Friday suspected of laundering large sums of money from Russian criminal gangs as part of a network they said may be linked to Semion Mogilevich, one of the FBI's ten most wanted fugitives.
The arrests took place in the Mediterranean coastal town of Lloret de Mar near Barcelona, which has a large Russian community and is popular with tourists from the country, police said in a statement.
The four are suspected of tax fraud, document falsification and money laundering.
"The main activity of the group was laundering money that came from Russia through third countries, some of them considered fiscal paradises, by carrying out real estate and financial investments," the statement said.
The network which the four suspects belonged to may have laundered over 56 million euros ($75 million) in recent years, it added.
Police searches carried out in several locations as part of the operation found evidence that the group had links with major Russian crime groups like Solntsevskaya and Solomonskaya.
"Specifically there is evidence linking some of the firms under investigation with Semion Mogilevich, one of the FBI's ten most wanted fugitives," the statement said.
The FBI suspects Mogilevich, a Ukrainian national, of carrying out a multi-million dollar share fraud scheme in the United States in the 1990s, according to its website.
It is offering a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to his arrest.
Among those arrested in Lloret de Mar was Andrei Petrov, a Russian real estate businessman who is suspected of heading the money laundering ring, according to sources close to the investigation.
Spanish authorities are investigating how a firm Petrov owned won a contract in 2009 to build a shopping centre by the beach.
Former Lloret de Mar mayor Xavier Crespo quit his post in 2009 after being accused of receiving over 350,000 euros in under-the-table payments from companies.
He is now a lawmaker in the Catalan regional parliament as a representative for the ruling Convergence and Union alliance.
Lloret de Mar has over 1,800 Russian residents who account for 4.5 percent of the total population of the town.

Advertising is a deeply pervasive part of all lives lived in consumerist economies. The average individual in Western society is bombarded with several hundred adverts per day -- billboards, TV commercials, film trailers and product placement in films, Internet ads, radio blurbs, newspaper and magazine ads, and more. Advertising both is a kind or popular culture, and it is a major way that we learn about and learn how to interpret other kinds of popular culture. Film trailers, for instance, not only seek to sell their cinematic product, but they also hope to shape the way we think about the movie. Advertising is a major mode of socialization, telling us how to think and feel (what's hip, what's sexy, what's normal), and what problems we need to worry about (lack of the latest e-gadget, insufficiently white teeth, mammary magnitude, etc.).
Advertising is as old as commercial popular culture, and viewing older ads can tell us a great deal about past eras and our own. One thing revealed by studying older ads is the ways in which aesthetic styles change over time. Fro example, it is clear once avant garde techniques become domesticated over time such that some shocking bit of 1930 surrealism is now seamlessly accepted into an ad for a mainstream cleaning product or automobile. Or note how, on the one hand most advertising has become less verbal and more visual free association, while on the other hand the rise of the mute button has led to an increasing amount of written language in TV ads.
The links below include some famous historical and recent ad campaigns, archives of historic advertisements, ad industry sites, ad parody sites (which often teach much about ad manipulation techniques), articles and site analyzing ads, and more.

Up to 50% of persons with MS (PwMS) will experience some form of cognitive impairment as a result of the disease including disturbances in memory, attention, concentration, information processing, and executive functions such as problem solving, and self-monitoring. MS-related cognitive impairments negatively affect many aspects of functioning and independent participation in everyday life. Thus, PwMS who experience cognitive impairments face a wide array of recurring barriers that pose grave challenges to carrying out everyday activities while trying to maintain multiple life roles and as they age.
Management of cognitive symptoms can be addressed through rehabilitation which has the potential to reduce disability, prevent complications of the disease, and enhance participation, independence, and quality of life. Considering the high frequency of cognitive impairments in MS and their significant, complex impact on functioning and independence, it is critical that cognitive interventions be an essential component of MS rehabilitation.
The overarching goal of this study is to develop and test a self-management, group-based cognitive rehabilitation program designed specifically for PwMS.

2011 Inductees
The International Network of Women in Emergency Management (inWEM) hosted its inaugural "International Women in Homeland Security and Emergency Management Hall of Fame" Induction Ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 12, 2011, in Las Vegas. The reception and ceremony was held in conjunction with the International Association of Emergency Manager's (IAEM) 59th Annual Conference & EMEX 2011.
The Homeland Security and Emergency Management Hall of Fame is inWEM's first major initiative, honoring women who are pioneers and contemporary leaders in the fields of homeland security and emergency management in local, state, tribal, and federal governments. Women around the world have been innovators in critical infrastructure facilities; volunteer, faith, and community-based organizations; the private and nonprofit sectors; academia; the military; and private industry.
The inductees, divided into Pioneers (achievement prior to 1970) and Contemporary Achievers (1970-present,) were chosen because they have made outstanding achievements and significant contributions in the fields of homeland security and emergency management. They are professionals who have devoted careers to women's and girls' causes and community endeavors; and who motivate and inspire young women envisioning careers in homeland security and emergency management.
Dr. Jacqueline McBride, President of inWEM, said, "This award honors the contributions individuals have made in the advancement of women in emergency management and a culture of preparedness for safer, resilient, and sustainable diverse communities. Young girls and women around the world need to see and read about these 'trailblazers' – someone who reaches out and encourages them to one day follow their career path. Our future goal is to establish a permanent home. We will initially share and display information in a traveling exhibit for use by schools, colleges/universities, art centers, businesses and libraries throughout the world."
The 2012 ceremonies will be held on Saturday, October 27, 2012, during IAEM-USA 60th Annual Conference & EMEX Exhibit, Orlando, FLA, USA (Orange County Convention Center). Requests to receive a nomination form should be addressed to firstname.lastname@example.com.

An author of over 50 children's books made a special visit to Zanesville.
Will Hillenbrand is originally from Cincinnati. He's the author of books such as "Down by the Station" and "Counting Crocodiles." He visited Maysville Elementary to visit with students.
"When an author comes to a school they see that the book is connected to a real person that is just like them," said Author Will Hillenbrand. "It makes all the rest of the collection come to life. It all becomes personal after that point."
Hillenbrand showed the kindergarten and first grade students a behind the scenes look at how the drawings for his books were created, how he got ideas for his stories and that not everything is perfect the first time.
"They might think that I draw and I make pictures and I do it the right way the very first time," explained Hillenbrand. "That's a myth. When I show them that I draw again, again and again they can see that when they do that, it's nothing different then what I do."
The author's visit is part of the school's celebration of Right to Read Week, which also included a family literacy night.

That was great. In my forty-plus years of watching baseball, I've never seen a perfect game or no hitter live, even on TV. My closest experience was watching Tom Seaver throw his great game against the Cubs in 1969, which Jimmy Qualls broke up with a Texas Leaguer in the ninth.
I remember that you could almost see the adrenaline flow out of Seaver right after the hit. He just stood at the back of the mound for a few seconds. Jerry Grote walked out to get him focused again, while the crowd booed Qualls. Bob Murphy, or maybe Ralph Kiner, said "they'll start cheering in a second" and he was absolutely right.
Seaver turned it back on and finished up the Cubs.

|Fun climb but be solid at the grade. While it is easier, it is run-out above the bolt for quite some ways.

|Does it finish at the far left of the face, left of the tree? Seems the natural line and clean instead of lichen-covered.... I tried that and eventually backed off to the easy finish right of the tree. Gear was good below the roof; but with a two-foot sling to avoid drag and moving somewhat higher to try to pull over the top (an awkward semi-mantle), it would have been a fairly long and poorly-controlled fall.

|Left of the tree. Plug gear, pull up and mantle on to the block. Bit nervy move. This finish seems consistent in grade with the crux.

|It is invisible to my task manager but visible to "deep scan" software so I appears to be hiding itself. I think its malicious. Bman
|it is gadgets
|is part of the windows sidebar search to regedit nikos pappas
|Sidebar.exe that comes with vista/7 is not-malicious. But there are a few corrupted gadgets that run a second sidebar.exe that is. Always virus scan everything you download. That awesome guy, you know the one.
|sidebar.exe is used in conjunction with gadgets. It creates a HTTP connection to a server owned by microsoft.. I presume for updating the gadgets (or perhaps MS is gathering info about you and your use that you are not aware of?) run NETSTAT -b to verify. Stop the process and re-rum NETSTAT -b to see. Relatively "safe", but it is just another example of MS hiding what they do.... DGR

|Scary, theres two of them, one starts on startup(not concerned about) and then the other starts after the first one, like its covering its tracks to get a harmless rating, the second, im sure, is a virus, and I would reccomend stopping it Weeve Ferrelaine
|Everytime I shut down, a message pops up. I can't quite see the message, but it says something about sidebar.exe not working. Sorry
|if the process is in folder "C:\Program Files\Windows Sidebar" its not malicious and related to the windows 7 gadgets, the process starts when i open the gadget window or a gadget itself and automatically goes away when i close it (until a gadget is open, the process will not disappear) TommyTheNice

|Sidebar monitors what gadgets are running. entering "sidebar" in program search opens the monitor window, allowing you to deactivate running gadgets Atomsmasher
|This is Windows Gadgets for Windows Vista/7, but if you have XP and you have sidebar.exe, it's most likely to be a virus! eee
|Its not dangerous but it does cause severe system slowdown Max D
|High chance of being a trojan, but unable to confirm at this time. Don
|for universal ghost
|It slows your computer down to a crawl! if you are just using your computer and all of the sudden the entire OS seems sluggish go into your process manger and stop sidebar.exe Max
|If sidebar and gadgets were not dangerous, why would Microsoft have a fix to disable it. Apparently, gadgets can be used by hackers to introduce malicious code into your system. See also: Link Steve
|Standard windows start up program.
|it require lot of memory for what? the real function is not clear, turning it off from task manager nothing happens.. Luciano
|Should be a fine process, but has broken my machine. It is stopping shutdowns, corrupting files, and the sidebar has broken entirely Edwarr
|A remarkable software program...that I have included on my 10" notebook's desktop, with a black background (i.e., 18 slideshow windows to depict various film scences...while listening to a list of preselected music videos as theme music). My criticism, though, is the failure of the slideshow to enable the viewing of each pic 1 second (or less)...in order to simulate animation (e.g., copying and pasting each element of a gif...coding each element so these run in sequence...and joining various gif elements to form an animated storyboard). In fact, my view as why MS has removed this program, is that many have chosen to use this in place of its moviemaker...and, it is a program MS could not subvert! Bill
|This goes with Vista/7 gadgets. Like clock, and calendar. But, They'res two kind. If you see this running on XP or if you dont have gadgets, then its probably a virus. Scan it with probably either Spybot or McAfee

text: Disney on Ice is entertaining for all ages By Autumn D. F. Hopkins February 21, 2013 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Disney on Ice once again returned to the Charleston Civic Center, this time with "Worlds of Fantasy" providing entertainment for children of all ages, although granted, the target audience is probably under 10.I have to admit I was surprised to see such a large crowd almost fill the venue on a weeknight. I expected to see a sparse turnout since the show will run six more times this weekend and it is a school night. It was not a sellout, but it certainly was a robust crowd.The show was loud, bright and flashy, the stuff of every child's fantasy. The noise level of the venue never really drops below a dull roar with children laughing, screaming, crying and parents scolding, shushing and popping Advil, but somehow the magic of Disney overpowers it all.The first half of the show includes: Tinkerbell, flying fairies, enormous butterflies, impressive acrobatic feats of figure skating and costumes that seemed so cumbersome it was mind boggling to watch the performers remain upright. All of this combines to make a fast-paced and sometimes frantic performance. There is so much happening on the ice it is difficult to take it all in. This plays perfectly to a younger crowd with short attentions spans. I enjoyed it. The first half of the show appealed deeply to my inner elementary school child, especially the fairy queen who flew through the air repeatedly. Sprinkling magic dust and wearing a fabulous, glittery golden gown, she looked like a mash up between Glenda the Good Witch and a Vera Wang Wedding show. I will not lie; I wanted to be her. I would wear it, especially if I could both fly and skate with gravity defying grace.The second half of the show retold the latest "Toy Story" movie and though not as magical, it was still entertaining. I do think the second half is a little intense for the extremely young fans. With 20-foot tall cut outs of angry children chasing the toys around the ice, it was a tad too scary for my taste. My opinion was reinforced when many of the audience members nearby spontaneously burst into tears.I will say that the set design and costumes of the second half were even more imposing then I could have imagined. Larger than life toys and costumes that appeared to contain more than one skater were both whimsical and extraordinary.Overall this is a fun family night out. It is an enchanting show that is not too long and filled with little things to appeal to a vast range of age and taste.Disney on Ice presents "Worlds of Fantasy" shows at the Civic Center Friday night at 7 p.m, Saturday at 11 a.m., 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. and Sunday at 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. Story Share Story Share Trending Now 1 Philanthropist Betty Schoenbaum of Shoney's fortune turns 100 2 Derek Redd: Marshall thinks outside the cable box for broadcasts 3 Deer in 8 WV counties found dead from EHD 4 Parole hearing set for Putnam man who claims wrongful sex assault conviction 5 Capital High to reopen Monday after shut down by mold South Charleston wants a shot at 'home rule' Previous Story South Charleston wants a shot at 'home rule' Next Story

4. Lorraine Llewellyn e-mailed, 1) The correct name of the father of John MILLER founder of Millersburg Bourbon Co. KY., should be corrected to ROBERT MILLER, per Harry Middleton Hyatt Revision of Millers of Millersburg {FHL US/CAN Film 1550353,
{All Caps unless otherwise noted are by L.F.L. 2006}
Harry Middleton Hyatt writes in:
Notebook of a revision of "The Millers of Millersburg, Kentucky, pp. 1-45}. Page 4 item # 7 Doucument # 2: "MILLER, Elizabeth (or Lucy) - the story is similiar to the one told of Bryant's Station {S. 16}. The Millers and several other families were being besieged in their blockhouse by the Indians when the water supply gave out. Not having a man to spare and thinking that the Indians would not harm a young girl, Elizabeth was sent out to a nearby spring. She was returning, in fact had almost reached the blockhouse, when she was shot and instantly killed by the Indians. The girl was about twelve or thirteen years old" (p. 27; Lorraine's note: Of the first Millers of Millersurg).
I suggested in a footnote (p 27) that this episode must have happened while the Millers were still living at Fort Beargrass (present Louisville; see S. 20) since I associated the tragedy, as perhaps did my grandfather (I could no longer remember in 1929), Kentucky. We will learn from Robert ROBISON that this family murder occurred in Pennsylvania before the Millers moved to Kentucky.
Page 5, Document # 3. Robert ROBISON, one of the early pioneers of Sherman's Valley (S 5) left a narrative in which he says: "I forgot to give you an account of a murder done at our fort in Serman's Valley, in July, 1756; the Indians waylaid the fort {Fort Robinson, S 6>} in harvest-time, and kept quite until the reapers were gone; James WILSON, remaining some time behind the rest, and I not being gone to my business, which was hunting deer for the use of the company, WILSON standing at the fort gate {perhaps waiting for this wife to reenter the fort before he left}, I desired to shoot his gun at a mark, upon which he gave me the gun, and I shot; the the Indians on the upper side of the fort, thinking they were discovered, rushed on a DAUGHTER OF ROBERT MILLER [Caps, by H.M.H. underline by L.F.L.], and instantly killerd her, and shot at John SIMMESON [who immediately fled to notify the reapers or to the safety of the fort]; they then made the best of it that they could [knowing that the screams, shots or possible notification by SIMMESON would soon bring the absent reapers], and killed the wife of James WISON, and the Widow GIBSON [her maiden name was McClelland, D, ], and took [her son] Hugh GIBSON [D. ], and Bestsy HENRY prisoners. While the Indian was scalping Mrs. GIBSON [D.], the narrator shot at and wounded him, but he made his escape. The reapers, being 40 in number returned to the fort, and the Indians made off" (quoted by I. Daniel Rupp, The History and Topography of Duuhin, Cumberland, Franklin, Bedfored, Adams, and Perry Counties, Lancaster City, PA., 1846 p. 559

Sir, will you please tell me whether Joseph McClintock of Penn. received a pension for his services in the Revolutionary War?
Joseph McClintock was a private soldier in Capt. John Jacks Co. 2d Battalion, Cumberland Co. Pa. Col. Thos. Gibison in 1778 and in 1780. He was in Capt., John Adams Co. 5th Battalion, Cumberland Co. He died in 1799 in PA.
Also John Miller of Cumberland Co. PA. fought in the Revolutionary War. He was born 1752 and died in 1815. He lived in or near Carlisle, Cumberland Co. PA, but at the time of his death her was living in Millersburg, Bourbon Co. Ky. John Miller received a grant of land in Kentucky, but so far I have been unable to find out why he received this land. Can you tell me about this grant?
If you have no record of a grant of land given to John Miller of Pa. is there any place I can write to find out about this grant?
Could the Miller brothers have made a purchase from the government?
thank you for any help you may be able to give me.
