If anything, this issue solidifies my belief that the New Krypton story is nothing more than a moniker or theme for the Superman line, much in the vein of the recent Manifest Destiny and other, similar, non-event tag lines used on recent books.
Case in point, this issue opts to ignore the rounding up of Superman's villains from the last 'part' of New Krypton in favour of focusing on, uh, the Creature Commandos? Yes, it's the return of characters no one asked for.
And it's not like this is the second or third part of this supposed event either. This is the sixth or seventh chapter and we're introducing random characters that have nothing to do with the Kryptonians and do nothing but sidetrack any progress we were making with the non-plot going through this event.
However, this doesn't mean this issue was a complete failure either. I did enjoy it and what little progress was made with the New Krypton story was quite entertaining. For instance, the Lex and Brainiac interactions were brief, yet spot on and the ending with Metallo and Reactron (horrible name for the guy with the gold kryptonite heart), along with the apparent killing of Supergirl's father, appear to be an attempt to rachet this storyline up a notch, assuming it actually gets followed up on properly in future issues.
Verdict - Check It. Another solid outing from Johns, but a rather disappointing continuation of the so-called New Krypton event.

While not without faults, Final Crisis came out swinging this month with what I consider to be the best issue of the series so far. From the stirring conclusion to the trial of Hal Jordan to probably the villain monologue of the year from Darkseid near the end, Morrison managed to tell a cohesive and thrilling story from start to finish that felt like it was truly building to something for the first time since the series began.
Opening the issue with the trial of Hal Jordan did a great job of setting the tone for the issue. One of the highlights of this scene was the Granny Goodness possessed Alpha Lantern injuring a Guardian of the Universe before attempting (she fails) to destroy the central power battery. While I think injuring Guardians is becoming the new 'SHIELD helicarrier crashing' for DC (it seems to happen every other event these days), I still think it worked rather well here. Hopefully, with the Guardians final line telling Hal he has 24 hours to save the universe means the Green Lanterns will play a huge part in the conclusion to this event, as they skirt the periphery of the main conflict, just getting to Earth by the end of the issue.
From here, we darted over to check on Checkmate, whom I assumed would have a huge presence in this issue after the events of Final Crisis: Resist. Unfortunately, I was left rather confused by what I saw. In Resist, the tie-in ended with Mr Terrific leading an army of thousands of OMACs and the last survivors of the Antarctic base out to, well, resist Darkseid's rule. In fact, the entire, brief, Checkmate segment seemed to be full of continuity errors in regards to what we've been shown so far.
Here, we're treated to a base that wasn't overrun by the Anti-Life Equation controlled forces and Amanda Waller telling the Question, who should be fighting Cain / Vandall Savage over in Revelations still, about their new seven day BIOMACs, a new version of OMAC that look like the old Silver Age versions with the mohawks.
Renee, who has seen all kinds of crazy, especially in regards to the world going to hell in a hand basket and her appearances in Revelations, is seen here complaining about not having much experience with this kind of stuff and how she doesn't 'do the science fiction stuff'.
Finally, still with Checkmate, it appears Mister Miracle was wearing a bullet proof vest and the gunshot he suffered didn't kill him. Oookkaay. What was the point of that again? Cheap theatrics by the looks of it. Speaking of Mister Miracle, contradicting the whole Tattoo Man circuit delivery storyline, it is actually Mister Miracle who delivers the circuit pattern to Checkmate and tells them to all paint it on their faces.
I don't mind small errors or contradictions in most major events, but Final Crisis has like five tie-ins, all overpriced and only one or two actually seemed to have anything to do with the main title. When those one or two seemingly important books get retconned / ignored a month later in the main book, it irks me a lot more than something like Secret Invasion's hundredth tie-in not lining up right with the main title. I just don't see how you can mess up something like that with so few books and, supposedly, three years of planning.
Ignoring this little segue, the rest of the issue goes off flawlessly with my only complaint being some of the scenes felt a little rushed. For instance, we jump into the assault on Bludhaven with Black Adam and Captain Marvel leading the charge against Mary Marvel, who seems to be possessed by Desaad instead of actually being corrupted now. This battle had the makings of something truly special, but was simply far too short to maintain the impact it should have had. After the opening clash, Black Adam is simply tossed into a car and taken out of the fight while Mary moves on to grind her crotch on a beaten Captain Marvel and make some small chat before the scene changes. Another page or two and it would have given time to flesh the fight out a bit more.
Speaking of the rushed feel of this ending, the scene with, what I believe is, Bobo from Shadowpact, a random 'mute' with a rubik's cube and the wayward banished Monitor, now captured by Darkseid's Purifiers. We were told this room was for the people that the Anti-Life Equation didn't work on and they would be experimented on and eventually killed when they were through with them.
While this is all fairly straight forward, we then jump back and forth between a few scenes and the so-called mute solves the rubik's cube in 17 moves, which is supposedly impossible and was said by Bobo to be the number of God, and the room and the Purifiers are engulfed in light. We cut back later to Darkseid's men grovelling to him and each blaming the other for what happened and, as far as I can tell, it has something to do with Batman and his 'psycho merge clone army', which I assume is what happens next week in the Grant Morrison Batman tie-in. Here, it just felt like I was missing pages where this was supposed to be explained.
However, this still didn't really nag at me like some of the more disjoint and jarring scenes from earlier issues did and it was all made up for with the emergence of Darkseid and his speech about taking everyone to a hell with no exits and crushing their very souls. It was definitely one of the best monologues from a villain I've read in a long, long time and worth picking up the issue alone for.
This was all contrasted with the rebirth of the Monitor and he is being heralded as the judge of all evil. I'm curious as to what this will mean and does this tie into that evil Monitor from the Superman Beyond tie-ins or will that even spill back into Final Crisis?
Verdict - Must Read. While not a perfect issue, the few flaws I do talk about, seemingly at length, didn't affect my enjoyment of this issue in the least and Final Crisis may just deliver on much of the hype. However, the art, which I didn't really mention in the review, looks terrible in comparison to earlier issues and it's a shame.

New Avengers: Illuminati this is not. Where the Illuminati special was one of the more entertaining premises and was executed perfectly, Dark Reign failed to deliver on any of the promise such a grouping of villains should have had. Add some of the worst art I've seen in recent memory and the fact setting this scenario up was apparently the only reason for Secret Invasion's existence and that adds up to one disappointing issue which should have sold me on the entire Dark Reign premise.
At the very least, coming into this issue, I was hoping for some explanations as to why each of these characters were chosen and why they would even give Norman "I'm crazy and lose to Spider-Man every other week" Osborn the light of day. Thankfully, Bendis actually attempts to address these concerns, albeit a little less than satisfactory for my liking.
Let's start with the obvious one - Emma Frost, a good girl for the past 15 years or more and current girlfriend of Cyclops and member of the X-Men. Bendis simply glosses over this in favour of playing up her ties to the Hellfire Club, happily ignoring any of the current goings on with the Hellfire Club and Emma's complete turn around as a character over the past few decades. While, yes, she doesn't play a villain here and her waking up in the middle of the night with cold sweats at the end of the issue plays up the guilt she feels over being associated with these people, I still don't see how or why she would play along with them or even be chosen as a member in the first place.
But, if this was the worst part of the issue's premise, that wouldn't be all that bad. However, we have Namor acting like a complete neanderthal, in both his dialogue and how he was drawn in the issue, the Hood acting like some common thug, waving his guns around while jumping on the table, and Norman being the main focus and Tony Stark of this evil Illuminati group while Dr Doom and Loki simply play bit piece background characters to him.
In fact, Norman has the entire team under his thumb with the threat of a mystery character, whom we aren't even shown on panel. This character would have to be one hell of a power house, as Loki is a god and Doom has stared down the Beyonder and Mephisto, among others. The whole mystery man keeping these characters under Norman's thumb comes off as a cheap, fanfiction-like writing ploy from one of the biggest names in the industry.
As for my guess as to who this is, I'm going to go with the Void Sentry that was last seen (unless I missed the tie-in it was taken care of in) taking over for the Sentry, who took off for the outer space for some quiet time thanks to some Skrull mind games. After the Sentry ripped Doom a new one in Mighty Avengers, I figure an evil version is the only one that could possibly make him reconsider laughing Osborn out of the room.
The final miscue this issue has is the killing off of Swordsman. While not exactly the most beloved character in the world, Bendis simply kills off a character for pure shock value and with as little fanfare as the recent Wasp killing. And for what? To show that Norman is crazy and can kill anyone at random? This could have been accomplished by killing a random guard or secretary in lieu of killing off a character that has seen a fair share of development in Thunderbolts over the past year or more.
The only really surprising and interesting part of this issue was after the meeting ended and Doom and Namor were left to themselves. It was only here that the characters actually felt like the real Dr Doom and Namor as the two discuss what they would do about this situation, which ends with Doom proclaiming they will simply eliminate them all if it came down to it. I was a little surprised Loki didn't stick around with them as Doom was seen making an alliance with her in an earlier issue of Thor, much like he did with Namor at the end of Namor's recent mini-series. Maybe World War Doom for the next big event?
Verdict - Avoid It. The villains teamed up. Emma Frost tagged along for no real reason. Norman is keeping them in line with a mystery character, whom we only see in shadow. This just sort of went through the motions and it lacks any of the impact or entertainment value that the Illuminati specials had. Nothing happens here that needs to be seen. These characters are teamed up and that's about all you need to know in my opinion, making this issue redundant.

By A. Sherrod Blakely
NEW YORK The Boston Celtics have been a team that thrives off emotion.
Some teams wear it on their sleeve.
For the Celtics, it's more like a body cast.
So when someone comes along who doesn't seem to quite fit in, emotionally speaking, well, it's noticeable.
That's why the play of Jeff Green, maybe more than any of the new guys, has come under such scrutiny.
He has had games in which he played well.
He has had others when he struggled.
And yet when you watch him on the court or listen to him afterward, you'd hardly know the difference.
The fact that the Celtics' second unit has struggled in the playoffs hasn't helped matters.
However, it's clear that Green is improving as the C's continue their march toward Banner 18.
They can officially clear the first hurdle on Sunday as they try to sweep the New York Knicks out of the playoffs.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers has heard the many questions and concerns about Green and whether he's fitting in well with the Celtics since they acquired him and Nenad Krstic from Oklahoma City for Kendrick Perkins and Nate Robinson, on Feb. 24.
While all would agree it hasn't been a smooth transition, there are signs that Green is starting to get a better handle on his role as a backup compared to being a starter for the Thunder.
"I think it's hard for him (Green) because he's never not started," Rivers said. "I also think it's a little more difficult because it's the first time since college when he comes on the floor at times, he is the go-to guy. He's been in the NBA playing with those other two guys (Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook) a lot. So, it'll change. It'll be better."
After scoring four points in Game 1, he was up to six in Game 2 and had nine in Game 3.
Defensively, he's starting to figure out how to better compete with Carmelo Anthony.
That could come in handy when you consider the Celtics, if they do eliminate the Knicks, are likely to face the Miami Heat and LeBron James in the next round.
"He's coming," Rivers said of Green. "You can see it. He's playing with a different level of energy."
Rivers is basing that on his play, not his personality.
"Jeff is a poker face guy," Rivers said. "You can never read into that. I think people are reading way too much into that stuff. Jeff may hit the game-winner in Game 7 of the NBA championship, and walk off the floor. But inside, he's probably having a party. You just may not see it."
While it's true that Green isn't an overly emotional guy, even he admits that he has to play with more fire.
More than anything else, Green is learning on the fly what it's like to be part of a team where competing for a championship isn't just a goal - it's practically a mandate for this team.
"Every practice, everything we do is championship level," Green said in a recent interview. "It took some getting used to, because I haven't been there and I haven't experienced it. That's where I want to be. I just have to find a way to get to that point. By me not experiencing that, I have to find a way to get there."
And the Celtics have no doubt that he'll make it - even if you don't see it on his face a la Kevin Garnett.
"I'm not Kevin who is expressive," Green said. "I just have to find it within myself to get my motor revved. It's just something I have to do, something I have to focus on, no matter how many minutes I play. I have to get it done."

Outdoor Notes
DNR announces new special angling regulations
Trout anglers have all the more reason to visit Chatfield, Lanesboro, Preston and Spring Valley in southeastern Minnesota thanks to a change that effectively allows trout fishing all year long in these cities, according to the Minnesota DNR.
The change allows catch-and-release trout fishing in the fall in these cities, which means anglers can either catch and release, or catch and keep trout depending on the time of year, on the South Branch Root River in Preston and Lanesboro; Mill Creek in Chatfield; and Spring Valley Creek in Spring Valley.
The change is one among several to fishing regulations that are specific to individual waters and go into effect March 1. Following public review that wrapped up this past fall, fishing regulations will change on six lakes and three streams starting in March, while existing regulations on three lakes will become permanent and a regulation on one lake will be extended.
These changes include new regulations that have not yet been in effect; regulations that have been in effect but will be modified or dropped; and regulations turning permanent that were reviewed and will now be in effect indefinitely.
Regulations that are specific to individual waters take precedence over statewide regulations. Special regulations can be found in their own section of the Minnesota Fishing Regulations booklet, at www.mndnr.gov/fishmn using LakeFinder, and posted at public accesses.
Modified regulations
Lake Vermilion (St. Louis County): Anglers on Lake Vermilion will be able to keep walleye up to 20 inches long, with one allowed over 26 inches, starting with the May fishing opener. The new regulation will require release of all fish from 20 to 26 inches with only one allowed over 26 inches. The four-fish bag limit will remain the same.
New regulations
Little Webb Lake, Moccasin Lake and Lake Thirteen (Cass County): Five-fish bag limits on sunfish and on black crappie on Little Webb and Moccasin lakes, and a bag limit of five on sunfish for Lake Thirteen, are being adopted and will be reviewed after 10 years to evaluate how well they maintain quality sunfish and crappie for anglers.
Regulations turning permanent
Carnelian Lake and Pleasant Lake (Stearns County): Experimental regulations on sunfish that have been in effect since 2007 will become permanent. A reduced bag limit of five sunfish were shown to have effectively maintained quality populations of sunfish.
• Sugar Lake (Wright County): Northern pike and black crappie experimental regulations that have been in effect since 2007 have shown to improve the sizes of northern pike and crappie and will become permanent.
Dropped regulations
Bowstring and Round lakes and connected waters (Itasca County): Experimental regulations on northern pike will be dropped and return to the statewide regulation. The regulation objective to encourage harvest of abundant small pike will likely be achieved by the new northern pike zone regulation set to be adopted in the spring.
Continuing experimental regulations
Sand Lake and connected waters (Itasca County): Implemented with regulations on Bowstring and Round lakes, the experimental regulations on northern pike will be continued for one year, allowing additional time to collect survey data in 2017 before making a final decision on retaining or dropping next fall.
Vermilion walleye regulation to change
Anglers on Lake Vermilion in northeastern Minnesota will be able to keep walleye up to 20 inches long, with one allowed over 26 inches, starting with the May fishing opener, according to the Department of Natural Resources.
The new regulation will require release of walleye from 20 to 26 inches, a change that is less restrictive compared to the current regulation that requires release of walleye from 18 to 26 inches. The four fish bag limit will remain the same.
The DNR considered and modeled several options for the regulation change, and sought opinions from the public, as well as from the Lake Vermilion Fisheries Input Group that represents lake and statewide interests.
The group generally was in favor of a regulation change although had no majority opinion on a specific regulation. The broader public also had a range of preferences, with two-thirds supporting a regulation change and one third preferring no change.
The DNR chose the 20-to-26 inch protected slot because it has a lower risk of harvesting too many fish and is in line with public input indicating a preference for less risk.
Apply to learn how to hunt turkeys with a mentor in April
Youth and adults can apply through Monday, Feb. 13, to hunt turkeys for the first time under the guidance of experienced National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) volunteers. New this year, the adult and youth hunts are all on the same weekend.
Hunts are Saturday, April 22, and Sunday, April 23, and a pre-hunt orientation is required. The cost of the orientation ranges from $5 to $10, and hunting licenses cost $1 for 12 year olds; $6 for ages 13 through 17; and $27 for hunters 18 and older. All participants will need to have a valid firearms safety certificate or its equivalent and youth must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
"This is the 15th year the DNR and NWTF have cooperated for these mentored hunts, and more than 5,000 youth and adults have been a part of the learning experience," Kurre said. "New this year, we're working with the Minnesota National Guard to introduce military adults and their families to turkey hunting."
Applications and details about how to apply are available on the DNR's website at
Overall participation in the hunts is restricted by the number of volunteers and private lands that are available. Anyone interested in providing turkey hunting land for the mentored youth hunts should contact the Minnesota NWTF Save the Habitat Save the Hunt Coordinator Keith Carlson email@example.com.

Trundle Build Guide by Entrox

Trundle Build
Ability Sequence
I am a fond user of underused champs such as orriana, gragas, and well trundle. Usually when you buy a champ you use him for like 3 games then move on and start saving for another one. With trundle, after i figured out his build, i played him nonstop. I will cover tips for his skills and when to level them and the best items for you to use. Masteries and Runes are let to your personal choice. This is a traditional tanky dps build
Items. They are essential to how you plan to build trundle. In this guide i show you how to build him as a tanky dps laning trundle. Now i usually start off with a dorans shield and as this gives you good sustain in lane which is trundles main purpose. A cloth armor and health pots are also viable but i still recommend the shield. Right afterwards you get merc treads for the speed and more importantly the tenacity. This is the ONLY good choice for boots as the tenacity is extremely useful to negate ccs. after this fratmogs is the way to go: frozen mallet, atmas impaler, and warmogs armor, not necessarily in that order. You get warmogs first to start beefing yourself up as a tanky champ. then afterwards you help your damage with atmas impaler which goes excellently with warmogs. afterwards a guardian angel is good to raise your defense and gives you the option to charge in deal tons of damage and when the enemy kills you, your team comes to finish them off. Next a zeal is good to raise your as which combined with contaminate and rabid bite will destroy opposition. then you finish of your fratmogs with frozen mallet and get phantom dancer to finish the punch with a wicked attack speed boost. Now many would debate that trinity force would be an obvious item on trundle. I tried it but figured out that with this combo it covers all of TF's pros and adds some more.
Skill Sequence
Now skills are hard with trundle as they all seem essential, but the thing you have to realize is some of his skills require ranking to reach good work while others work well at rank 1. That said rabid bite is maxed first. It is an extremely useful spell in giving you attack damage and stealing it from enemy, but needs some early ranks to help it along. Contaminate however could also be a good spell to max first as early on the attack speed buff is a bit weak. but get a point in each spell early to be able to reach trundle's special ability:Gank proof. Also pillar of filth is a wicked awesome spell even at rank 1 so its maxed last.
Skill Usage
Trundle's skills have a few tricks to them so listen up
It can be used to deny the ad carry some punch but early on its main function is farm. Because of this trundle is made a viable 2v1 champ as well. this spell helps tremendously to last hit even under the turret, making a turret hugging trundle still gain some steady gold, which is key to sustain. once you have enough gold for a worthwhile item (not part of the recipe) you can recall if the lane is pushed and use contaminate to return to lane quickly (best to save teleport for ganks, be it yours or the enemies or emergency turret defense). Again once Trundle has his full build he is practically invincible so early farm is important.
Debatably trundles best skill it provides huge help in many situations. One of the most important things about this skill is that when combined with pillar of filth, it makes trundle absolutely 100% ungankable. It provides a solid buff to your attack speed, movement speed, and cc reduction(when combines with merc treads makes all stuns last like 0.5 seconds) it can be very useful to escape or chase or get back to lane. Also your best bet when your fighting is to lure your enemies into the existing contaminated zone or shoot it down when things are starting out a fight. Contaminate is a spell to use when tanking the enemy team to reduce ccs. Everone wastes them on you when they do near nothing and rest of team is left unimpaired. This skill has a kinda high cool down so use wisely. Very useful to kill turrets. If placed right you get attack speed buff for attacking and cc red. and move speed for escape. It is a very good spell over all and extremely useful to help line op pilar of filth.
This seems like a pretty straightforward skill but it has some hidden complexity to it. With the pillar it is essential to hold it until the time is right. You must try not to fall for jukes as the pillar has a rather large cooldown. It grants sight so it is good for checking and slowing possible gankers. Also if used in right passageways or right place in a chase can force the enemy into the slow or block off a path completely. With this you can save yourself and allies from ganks. It is essential to aim the pillar right to prevent chase or help catch up with an enemy. Also instead of using it in neutral lane poking use it when you or an enemy has committed to a fight.
Ah the tank killer. This is basically THE thing to use on enemy tanks. It is also very useful for pointing out a target for your team to focus. This skill actually is pretty simple as it can be used in defense and offense quite simply and obviously.
For example lets set up a scenario with all the abilities. Rammus is power balling your poor low health master yi. You aim the pillar perfectly so he is forced to go around it and get the full slow. Seeing yi gone he turns to focus you. Plant contaminate under yourself. The taunt lasts .5 seconds and you get big attack speed buff. He begins ult and defensive ball curl and starts auto attacking. You use rabbit bite and agony. Agony destroys effect of ult and defensive all curl and the with rabid bit you can finish him off with basic attacks, with the last seconds of contaminate to chase if he runs. Total time elapsed:7 seconds
As you can see trundle is very useful if you know how to use him.
All in all trundle is one awesome champ that is very fun to play. If you use him right and get used to him you can get an awesome experience from him even if you lose (I personally have only ever lost with this build when there are leavers). The best part about trundle is the fact that you can early enjoy playing him. Of course the fact that he can own most everyone in the game is good too :). Thanks for reading

Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta series increases at the rate of roughly one novel a year (each meticulously researched) and features horrifyingly precise forensics. She has also written for children with Life's Little Fable (hopefully less clinical than her adult work), and is perhaps mellowing, to the point of writing a Christmas book, Scarpetta's Winter Table, with an emphasis on recipes rather than autopsies.

Bate vs Bayer Leverkusen 11/24/2015 UEFA Champions League Preview, Odds & Prediction
Bayer Leverkusen vs Bate
Tuesday 24th November 2015 12:00(ET)
The Line: Bate 9/2 Draw 3/1 Bayer Leverkusen 7/10 See the Latest Odds
TV: Bt Sport; Fox Sports
Huge game in Group E of the Champions League where all three teams could still qualify behind Barcelona. If Bate beat Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday night they will more than likely go second in the table with a real chance to progress. Bate beat Roma in week two of the group when stunning the Italians with a lightening fast start and led 3-0 after thirty minutes. The Belarussian's will have an advantage in that they are used to playing in the sub zero temperatures and on Tuesday it's likely to be -1 for game time. With Signevich and Gordeychuk they have talented strikers but must take the game similar to the way they attacked Roma. Bate played well against Barcelona in both games but the Spanish side's quality came through in the end.
Bayer Leverkusen come into this game having won just one of their last four. The German side have struggled a little lately but their summer signing Javier "Chicarito" Hernandez has been on fire for his new side. The former Manchester United striker has scored ten goals in his last eight games and has scored in eight consequtive games. Hernandez is an out and out finisher and was a superb signing for Bayer, Manchester United may regret letting the Mexican international go now considering their current striker shortage but such is the game.
Tough game here to call, I'm going to take both teams to score though and I think that Bayer Leverkusen might just sneak a 2-1 win. I think it's better value to take both teams to score than to take Leverkusen outright. At 7/10 the away side are too short in my opinion.

Mac Retro Matte Liquid Lip color in the color Slipper Orchid with and without gloss.
A bright lip color can either make or break a look. I'm usually terrified of wearing bright lipstick fearing it will smear, start coming off, or worse get on my teeth. Here are six tips to pull of any shade of lipstick:
- Use a primer. This step is super important to getting a lasting bright look. A
- Clear lip liner. A lip lier should be clear or a very similar shade to your color of lipstick.
- Use concealer to fix any imperfections.
- Try lip stain. I prefer using a matte lip stain then adding gloss on top. Lip stain stays really well even when eating and drinking.
- Blot your lipstick. After applying a coat of lipstick use a tissue or blotting sheet and bad your lips to remove excess product then apply more lipstick and repeat. This is also important to making any lipstick last.
- Use concealer to fix any imperfections. After your lipstick is applied use a small brush and trace your lip line for a crisp defined look.

We Know Your Industry
EMB has spent years getting to know your business almost as well as you have.
Merchant Accounts For Online Furniture Sales
Furniture retailers are moving online in increasing numbers. Traditional furniture businesses are accustomed to traditional merchant services providers. Banks however are more hesitant to open merchant accounts for furniture businesses that are online than those with retail locations.
The bankers have categorized online furniture businesses as high risk due to chargeback rates. Furniture that is damaged en route to the customer during the shipping process leads quickly to chargebacks and disputes, which causes banks to shy away from this online sector.
The average transaction, or average ticket for online furniture stores is high in comparison to other online businesses. This average ticket and higher volume also causes issues for traditional credit card processing companies.

I don't mean to mislead you.
I'm NOT a nominee for the homeschool blog awards. I'm not really hurt by failing to be nominated. I don't blog about homeschooling a whole lot. In fact, even though my wife has been homeschooling for the last 6 or 7 years, I didn't even discover she's been doing that until a few months ago...I'm THAT involved.
I always thought it was strange that I'd come home for something in the middle of the day and find all the kids still there. Now it all makes sense.
Anyway, a good percentage of the 3 people who visit my blog come here by way of Cindy's blog. So you probably are already aware that she has been nominated in the categories of Funniest Homeschool Blogger and Best Encourager. While she is out on her speaking circuit, holding campaign dinners and fundraisers, and kissing babies, I thought I would lend my support by campaigning right here in the comfort of my comfy plaid armchair.
It should come as no surprise that we're recycling "She's A Bad Mamma Jamma" as her campaign rallying cry/theme song again. I'm working on the yard signs right now and should have them available for ordering by week's end. Buttons, banners, and acrylic nails with her silhouette on them are also forthcoming.
Of course, during this busy homeschool blogger election season, things will be a little crazy around here. I'll be picking up some extra slack here while she's doing her appearances on the morning shows, but it's worth it. The opportunities that this could open up for our future are incredible.
So be sure to click on the nominee button above and vote for "Still His Girl" as the funniest homeschool blog in the known universe (and Best Encourager if she happens to have touched you in that way). And if you don't already know she's the funniest, check out her blog and judge for yourself. Then you can vote for her here.
If any of you around the country want to get in touch with the "Still His Girl" campaign headquarters in your state or region, let me know and we'll hook you up. We know she's probably going to carry Wisconsin and Kansas and Guam, but we could use more help getting the word out in West as well as the portion of the country referred to as the "Ill-Humored Belt."
Most importantly, anyone who has connections with Cindy's BFF Mandisa should work your magic and get her to endorse Cindy or maybe have her perform at the election night result s extravaganza.

Go, Cindy! Don't forget us, the little people, when you win your election.
Oh, and say hi to Mandisa for us, since she is your BFF!

Got my vote in! Oh shoot, am I allowed, since I'm not a homeschooler? Funny how you didn't know you were until so recently. :)
- December 9, 2007 at 9:30 PM
Intending no disrespect to Mandisa, and in no way trying to put myself forward, please feel free to draw upon my musical abilities, as chronicled in last year's Christmas Day blog: http://www.edgren.com/wordpress/2006/12/25/a-very-merry-christmas/ . I'm sure your discerning tastes are superior to those of our current worship pastor, Philistine that he is, never responding to my kind offer.

if only I had voted for Cindy in this category....she'd be paying for our trip....
But she got my vote for encourager. 'cause there's nothing more encouraging then someone flying hundreds of miles just to hang out with you.
she pretty much is my hero.

- Kathy in WA said...
With a campaign manager like you on her team, she's bound to go far (hiding in the closet maybe).

- Sniz said...
The first paragraph of this blog made me laugh so hard! There's nothing like a supportive, hands-on, homeschooling dad. You should read Todd Wilson. Anyway, I'm off to vote for your wife. Maybe she'll win Indiana.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Original Pictures Forum' started by iblonger, Sep 10, 2007.
Just some before and after pictures of my first landscaping job. Please let me know you thoughts.
its tuff to tell from the pics but it looks like the mulch is very lumpy. to get rid of them simply take a leaf rake, turn it over so the prongs are pointed up and lightly rake over the top of the mulch. it even it out and make it look flat. that makes a good job look great. it looks good but iwould have made it more symetrical with the plants, id have switched a juniper for a orn. grass
Looks good, it looks 10 times better,
can we see some pics of that truck in the backround?
Great job! It looks a lot better now.
Looks great !
Very nice work!!

Good Points
color screen, GPRS/GSM Data, MMS, Infrared, camera compatible, downloadable games, polyphonic tones, recorder
Bad Points
color screen, battery life, GPRS/GSM Data, MMS, downloadable games, message alert
General Comments
This T310 is my first Sony Ericsson mobile phone. I bought this phone 3 days ago. To make this review short, I will summarize the "problems" I've encountered with this mobile phone. Color Screen - the pictures I received looks dull. Battery Life - my battery lasts for less than a day. GPRS/GSM Data - I can't disconnect the connection for GPRS/GSM Data and still view the current page in WAP unlike in Nokia phones where the connection may be disconnected and still view the WAP page. MMS - some MMS I received show as X. According to the manual it's an MMS file error or something like that. Games - I think Mophun games are limited and some of them are demo version only, unlike Java games for other mobile phones. Message Alert - you can't change the message alert tone.

Occasionally, we hold a Santa Saturday or a Sunshine Saturday event. This is a respite day that we provide for families in our area who need a day off and want a safe place for their child to stay. We have crafts, activities, games, and most importantly, lots of fun! The cost is $20 per child. Each child must bring his own breakfast and lunch, but a Gluten-free/Casein-free snack will be provided in the morning and the afternoon.
Any child on the autism spectrum who is between the ages of 2 and 15 may attend. Siblings may attend for an additional charge.
These days are usually once a semester and will be announced via our Facebook Page

Pat O'Brien, the co-host of The Insider, whose frequent bouts with alcoholism has made him the kind of celebrity that the show itself covers nightly, has been demoted to a Los Angeles-based correspondent, with Lara Spencer taking over officially as the show's sole anchor, CBS announced Friday. O'Brien returned to rehab last February. Spencer, who has co-anchored The Insider from New York, will move to California as part of a longterm pact, executive producer Linda Bell Blue said in a statement. Blue included her announcement of the anchor change in a statement announcing the conversion of the show's production facilities to high definition. "We are once again making history by being the first entertainment newsmagazines to move into HD. Lara is essential to the exciting future of the show," Bell Blue said.

In today's still struggling economy, there are many who are seeking employment after being laid off or downsized. One of the best places to do so is via career-oriented websites such as Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:MWW). Although there are many potential opportunities listed on Monster.com, job seekers and shareholders alike may also strike gold in some other unlikely online domains, as well.
Providing employment solutions in non-traditional ways
Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:MWW) is a global employment website that offers both online and mobile employment solutions. The site operates with customers on a worldwide basis. Just some of the ways that Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:MWW) utilizes the Internet with its customers is via its flagship website as well as through a strong social-media presence and mobile applications.
Recently, in an effort to expand its growing adoption among enterprise companies and staffing firms, the company launched SeeMore in France- the very first semantic query and workforce-analytics recruitment platform in the market. This platform will essentially help in building relationships and managing talent that will ultimately help user companies in growing their businesses.
While Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:MWW)'s 2012 profit margins were in the negative figures (mostly due to one-time charges), the company did generate revenue just shy of $900 million and a return on equity roughly in the mid-single digits. Presently, Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:MWW)'s stock is trading very near its 52-week low, with analysts estimating a rise in share price of nearly 68% for the rest of this year. With a low EV/EBITDA ratio of less than 4, any position at current prices can provide a substantial growth opportunity for potential investors.
Branching out by standing out
Certainly, those who are in the job market realize that networking is one of the best ways to find new employment. This may be one reason for the many new members of LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD), an online professional networking site.
One of the key components of LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD) is the company's hiring solutions area that essentially enables companies and professional entities to find, contact, and hire qualified candidates for open positions. In addition, through its subscriptions area, LinkedIn enables employment recruiters and corporate hiring managers to network with potential job candidates.
Recently, LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD) introduced a new feature on its site called LinkedIn Contacts, which enables the consolidation of a user's contacts, notes, and conversations in one convenient place. The premise behind this feature is that it allows users to stay in better contact with their most important relationships.
LinkedIn is currently valued at roughly $20 billion. While it pays no dividend to its shareholders, the company's share price is hovering very near its 52-week high. Yet, with lower-than-hoped-for earnings, analysts opinions are split between rating the shares as a Buy or a Hold.

Obama Wants his House Back—and He Might Just Get It
"It is easier to get into something than to get out of it."
—Former Secretary of Defense and Architect of the Iraq War, Donald Rumsfeld, in Rumsfeld's Rules
In 2002 I penned the first book ever published on then Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld—A New York Times and Washington Post bestseller entitled The Rumsfeld Way: Leadership Lessons from a Battle-Hardened Maverick (Ironically, in 2008 and 2009 I did some work with Mr. Rumsfeld on his own memoir, Known and Unknown, Sentinel, 2012).
In researching my book, I had the good fortune to interview such figures as Dr. Henry Kissinger. But, despite the fact that Rumsfeld was the youngest Secretary of Defense (under Gerald Ford) and the oldest (under George W. Bush), there was almost nothing published on the man. For example, no major encyclopedia at the time even mentioned his name, never mind detailed his accomplishments. So how was I able to write such a book? By examining Rumsfeld's own words—his speeches, his interviews and some of his own writings. It was then that I found "Rumsfeld's Rules," which consisted of more than 100 axioms that Rummy had written in the 1970s and updated from time to time.
Today, in the wake of a government shutdown entering its third week and a more-than-credible, unprecedented looming credit default of the United States, one of those rules stands above the rest to explain where we are today and how we got here:
"It is easier to get into something than to get out of it."
Now, for those of you that have read my recent postings, you know what I think of the elitist, yet cowardly senator Ted Cruz. No one—except Cruz himself—disputes that it was Cruz that got the Republican party to shut down the government by insisting on some defunding or other alteration of Obamacare (The Affordable Health Care Act). The fact that this was a flawed strategy from the start should cannot be over-emphasized. For better or worse, this was Obama's signature and sole piece of groundbreaking legislation. It has been passed by both houses of Congress, signed into law by the President, and upheld by the Supreme Court. There was always a zero chance that Obama would agree to any degree of blackmail by agreeing to diminish his signature bill to get a lifting of the Debt Ceiling or a re-opening of the U.S. government.
The result?
Obamacare, which had had embarrassingly-horrendous roll-out since it has gone live, has actually gone up in popularity by seven percentage points (so says the Wall Street Journal, hardly a bastion paper of the left). Obama can thank Mr. Cruz for that—since Cruz has now become such an abhorred figure of both the left and the right—that he single-handedly did precisely the opposite of what he set out to do (and something that Obama could not do himself. I think the junior Senator from Texas has forgot that Obama not only went to Harvard, he headed its Law Review).
Conservative writer and broadcaster Charles Krauthammer put Cruz's strategy into proper context by calling it "nuts:"
"This is nuts. The president will never sign a bill defunding the singular achievement of his presidency. Especially when he has control of the Senate. Especially when, though a narrow 51 percent majority of Americans disapproves of Obamacare, only 36 percent favors repeal. President Obama so knows he'll win any shutdown showdown that he's practically goading the Republicans into trying."
Yet, remarkably, Cruz still thinks himself a hugely popular figure despite the fact that it was his opinions, and more important, his actions, that has practically brought the #1 world economy to its knees. Cruz, the de facto head of the Tea Party, is now half as popular than the Democratic Party (despite the fact that the Democrats popularity has also gone down during this manufactured crisis). Cruz will become no more than a footnote to this emerging history, since he will go the way of such disreputable figures as Joseph McCarthy and Spiro Agnew. It was Cruz's deeds and his Harvard/Princeton "strategy" that has brought the popularity of the GOP to 24 percent, an all-time low, and Obamacare, shooting in the other direction.
Now, let's turn the tables and ask this question: What is the Obama strategy—what does he really want? This is where things get really interesting. Is it true—like Rand Paul has stated repeatedly—that he wants the unconditional surrender of the Republicans? No—he actually wants more—much more—and before you say that sounds like "nuts," let's look at history.
On this day, Sunday, the 13th of October, and four days before the potential default of America, following a Saturday evening White House budget discussion among Harry Reid, Charles Schumer and the President, comes new news: Obama not only wants an unconditional raising of the debt ceiling, he also wants to end the sequestration budget cuts—something that was unthinkable only a few days ago. Obama was pressing his advantage by opening up "a third front" and insisting that he not only get his "clean CR"—but more. This time he moved the goalposts. But you do not get to be president of the United States without being one of the most competitive people on the planet. And now that all attention is on the Senate and the talks between Senate Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, there is a new dynamic in place. Stay with me a bit longer as I once again rely on history to predict the way forward.
It was during Obama's first term as President that Mitch McConnell stood on the Senate floor and declared that the first priority of his party was to ensure that Obama never got a second term. How did that go, Mr. McConnell? Now the fate of the country and the global economy rests, in part, on the man who vowed to kill Obama's career—at a time that Obama holds every card in the deck and then some. This smells like a bad move by the Republicans. Did they forget that McConnell vowed to deny Obama a second term? The most competitive man in the world is not going to let this pass without exacting some degree of revege ("a dish best served cold," and it is now ice cold, but no less important to the 44th president). And now we know how he intends to get it.
Before the Wall Street Journal polls that showed the Republicans at an all-time low, Obama would have been more than happy to get a clean Continuing [budget] Resolution [CR] and a lifting of the debt ceiling. Now we learn, following the Saturday night Democratic revenge-fest in the White House, that Obama has asked for more with what we'll call his "third front strategy:" he now wants a lifting of the debilitating Sequester-level budget cuts—in essence, a blank check. All along, Obama has been playing chess while the Harvard/Princeton educated Cruz party has been playing checkers with all the skill of a four-year old. And it is pitiful figures like Ted Cruz and Mitch McConnell who are about to find out how badly they under-estimated the 44th president.
However, with that "third front strategy," Obama may have shown us his cards. He may indeed be showing us how he intends to end this dangerous stalemate at the last minute and appear to be the "deal-maker-in-chief." Since it is unlikely that Republicans will give in to this latest "demand" to lift the Sequester-level budget, he may be setting the stage for an 11th hour "capitulation" of that demand. This way, at least he can say that he gave the other side something. As for the timing of this, I do not see this happening until Tuesday, the 16th.
Obama has backed the Republican party into the worst corner in their history, and then has pulled the corner out from under them. With each passing "government shutdown" day the Republican party becomes less popular, and why shouldn't it? After all, it was their strategy to defund Obamacare and shut down the government.
We all know it was a fool's errand at best, and political nuclear war at worst, a war in which the GOP lost before they took the battlefield.
Obama will not give the man who declared to deny him a second-term any quarter. His goal is what Jack Welch, the former Chairman of General Electric, would call a "stretch goal" since the chances of achieving it is so remote: he wants to take back the House, a near impossibility. That is, unless he can play a role in lowering GOP popularity to crater to say 15 to 18 percent. If he can manage that, I believe he does have a chance to take back the House in 2014 and achieve new and important legislative feats, such as background checks for gun owners and new legislation on immigration.
Let me be abundantly clear: it is not spite that carries the day for this president, it is the hope that healthcare not be his sole legislative accomplishment. However, taking back the house in the mid-terms would be an incredible feat of brinksmanship, and will require Obama to put as many House Republicans on the unemployment line as possible.
The next five days will be like some terrible car-crash, difficult to watch but impossible to take your eyes off of. And lest Obama declare victory too soon, let's remember that this is his economy. History always remembers the president in office when things go off the rails—they seldom remember the lesser-lights who helped things go afoul. But Obama knows that, too.
So what lies ahead? Unless I am dead wrong, we will see the Dow lose several hundred points—or more—before Obama gives an inch. He can afford to: after all, under him, the Dow more than doubled between early 2009 and today. Five hundred or a thousand points, which can be recovered quickly if the ship is righted before Thursday at midnight, is a small price to pay for a president who sees a chance at getting his House back.
This is a fast-moving event so please stay tuned for frequent updates!

Rubblehulk's p/t is equal to the number of lands. The bloodrush boost is equal to the number of lands... I fail to see the difference.
Rubblehulk's power and toughness at any time are equal to the number of lands you control. The card could have just said "target creature gets +X/+Y until end of turn, where X is this card's power and Y is its toughness."

Three investigations into the Upper Big Branch explosion – by MSHA, an independent federal review commission, and the state of West Virginia – are currently underway.
At Congress's request, the Inspector General is conducting a review of MSHA policies that led to lax enforcement. The results, which will include recommendations for reform, are not expected until September.
This Committee requested and was granted extraordinary authority from the House of Representatives to investigate underground mine safety in May. Our investigation is ongoing.
Instead of rushing to legislate without all the facts, I hope we listen to the experts who are here today and use their expertise along with the eventual findings of the investigations I just mentioned to enact a bill with a clear focus on making mines safer, period.
One important way to do that would be to set aside H.R. 5663's misplaced inclusion of OSHA reforms in a bill that ought to be squarely focused on the safety of miners underground.
The proposed changes to the OSH Act would dramatically reshape workplace safety policies for virtually every private-sector employer in America. These provisions will drive up costs and litigation for employers – all of which would make it more difficult to create jobs at a time when our economy needs them most.
And for all these changes proposed under the banner of workplace safety, the legislation does nothing to help employers make their workplaces safer. Once again, it is a punishment-only approach that ignores the importance of proactive prevention.
Members on both sides of the aisle are anxious to make mines and miners safer. The bill before us today is a missed opportunity to learn the lessons from Upper Big Branch, and a clumsy attempt to drive up workplace litigation in the name of safety. I hope we rectify both of these flaws before any bill receives a vote in this committee.

Hezbollah has between 60 and 70 thousand rockets aimed at Israel, Defense Ministry Diplomatic-Security chief Amos Gilad said Monday.Speaking at the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism's World Summit, Gilad said the Lebanese terrorist organization has stockpiled rockets of various types, and its arsenal is far more robust than the one it had prior to the Second Lebanon War. "The next war will be aimed against the home front," Gilad warned.Gilad also blamed Hezbollah for a number of successful and unsuccessful terrorist attacks abroad.

PBL ponders Okaw Valley invitation
The invitation Paxton-Buckley-Loda athletic director John Overstreet was expecting came.
With the Okaw Valley Conference losing Maroa-Forsyth to the Sangamo Conference in two years, PBL was the target to fill that void, and Overstreet said PBL received the official invite Monday afternoon to join the conference for the 2016-17 school year.
"When Maroa was talking about this in the springtime before they officially left, we kind of knew it was coming," Overstreet said. "We're definitely going to give it serious consideration. We're still committed to the (Sangamon Valley Conference), but obviously we're going to discuss it administratively, and our board is going to discuss it at the August board meeting, and then we'll discuss it with our coaches after that."
The decision to accept or decline the Okaw invitation will be made by September.
"That's kind of the time frame that the Okaw wanted was a decision from us in September," Overstreet said. "From talking to my superintendent, we can handle making the decision one way or another by then."
Okaw president Brian Brooks said conference officials met Monday and thought PBL was the right choice for the conference.
"PBL is the only invite we have sent out," the St. Joseph-Ogden principal said. "Our group unanimously felt that PBL is the No. 1 school of interest."
PBL was involved in early discussions when the 12-team Okaw was fracturing two years ago. In July 2012, Maroa-Forsyth, Unity, Monticello, Clinton and Decatur St. Teresa were told the seven other member schools would leave the conference. Invitations were sent at that time to PBL, St. Joseph-Ogden, St. Thomas More, Eureka and Olympia.
Ultimately, Clinton and St. Teresa joined the defecting Okaw members to form the Central Illinois Conference and only St. Joseph-Ogden and St. Thomas More accepted the Okaw invitation.
With schools like Eureka and Olympia no longer part of the current equation, Overstreet said that makes the decision-making process a little different this time.
"The most obvious positive of the Okaw is the travel — the Champaign-based travel," he said. "That's why they invited us. On the other side, the Sangamon Valley, we're the longest member in the Sangamon Valley since 1990 or 1991. There's a lot of tradition, a lot of similar-size schools."
Brooks said PBL was a good fit for the Okaw.
"They have strong athletic programs, a strong administration, very supportive community and are similar in size to the other five schools," Brooks said. "We have wanted PBL involved in this conference from Day 1."
Brooks said PBL's location was a huge plus for the conference and one of the reasons the invitation was extended.
"I can't speak for PBL, but the distance between PBL and Maroa probably did not make much sense for them in most sports a couple years ago," he said. "We are hoping that with the potential of this being a Champaign-based league now with very little travel for each school, it will be more appealing this time around."
Brooks said conference officials did not discuss inviting any other schools. If PBL declines the invitation the officials would meet again and discuss additional schools.

Ayurveda believes that there are seasons each year, which is defined by the three doshas; Vata-fall and early winter, Kapha- winter & early spring and Pitta- late spring and summer.
It is further understood that each dosha goes through three stages each year with the changes of the seasons, temperature and weather. These three stages will first accumulate, then aggravate and finally alleviate the doshas.
