Daft. Demented. #SNORT. Picture Tina Fey meets Bette Midler with Joan Jett guitar chops... and you've got Seattle's Lisa Koch. An irreverent singer/comedian, out lesbian and sober chick, Koch ("Coke") is a deliciously twisted mix of comedy, theater, and tunes. She has recorded four solo CDs, is one-half of quirky sketch comedy duo, Dos Fallopia, and has shared the stage with the likes of Janis Ian, Kate Clinton, The Indigo Girls, and Steve Martin. She composed the Off-Broadway musical "27, Rue de Fleurus", has been seen on LOGO and Olivia Cruises, and actually had one of her songs sampled by Jay-Z. Lisa brings to Olivia her guitar, her wacky songs, and her musings on being a woman… from middle age to mammograms to singing vulvas.
Marga Gomez is a GLAAD award winning comedian who has been featured on HBO, LOGO, Showtime, Comedy Central and PBS. She has appeared at numerous Pride festivals around the US as well as national comedy festivals including San Francisco Sketchfest, Montreal's "Just For Laughs" and Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Marga was the first comedian to perform on the first Olivia Cruise and is thrilled to be back. Robin Williams called Marga "Amazing... she's like a lesbian Lenny Bruce." The New York Times called her "Delicously cheeky." Marga has twice been listed as GONYC Magazine's "Women We Love."
She is also the author/performer of ten solo plays which have been produced Off-Broadway and internationally.
All guests traveling with Olivia must be 21 years or older.

The Soapbox: "I Always Felt As If White Girls Thought Less Of Me Because I Was Half-Asian": There Should Be More Discussion About Elliot Rodger's Racism

Something Pleasant Happened, For Once: Jeremy Lin Met With Fired ESPN Headline Writer
Last month, the world imploded (for a little while anyway) when ESPN writer Anthony Frederico penned a headline about Asian-American basketball player Jeremy Lin with the phrase "chink in the armor." He said he simply meant that Lin had screwed up his winning streak for the Knicks, but was promptly fired amid cries of racism.

Leino: Season Was A Battle
by @DaveDavisHockey on 04/22/12 at 12:24 PM ET
Comments (2)
From the Buffalo News,
Ville Leino was nearly invisible with a hockey stick in his hand. Off the ice, however, he was the Sabres' straightest shooter.
Leino candidly and honestly delivered opinions on any subject that came up this season. The switch from left wing to center? Hated it. The crowd in Buffalo? Too quiet. The atmosphere in the dressing room? Not fun enough. Games early in the season? Sometimes it's tough to get excited for them.
So, as he said farewell to a forgettable season, it was no surprise Leino came clean about his first year in Buffalo.
Filed in: | The Sabres Observer | Permalink
He sounds like he did when he played for Detroit. Complaining of ice time and blaming others. This guy just doesn't get it. NOTHING IS GUARANTEED IN THE NHL. Well besides his paycheck bahahahahaha. Bury this prick in the minors.
Posted by Malik_is_alive on 04/22/12 at 02:21 PM ET
I'd really like to see him play the entire year without injury. I think he could be a leader on the the ice. We'll see next year.

He is the sweetest, most personable doctor I have ever met. On top of that, he's the smartest and greatest doctor I have ever had! He's very forward thinking and also likes to think out of the box. He works out of a very busy office and it's sometimes hard to get appointments with him, but so worth the hassle.
I found dr s. to be a real pleasure.He was very informative in regards to my issues.He is very kind and there appears to be no rushing and he listens,explains AND draws pictures,if necessary.I would, and have recommended him to anyone.The staff is great and make you feel comfortable.I could not have asked for a better doctor.
I have doctored with many, many Gasterenterologist. Dr. Stidham was a breath of fresh air. He was curtious, informed, caring, asked for my feedback, did not seem rushed in any way. He seemed to be very knowledegble of inflammatory bowel disease and all of the treatments surrounding these diseases.

Naval Hospital Jacksonville Receives Highest Level Recognition
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Story Number: NNS140214-28Release Date: 2/14/2014 10:41:00 PM
By Yan Kennon, Naval Hospital Jacksonville Public Affairs Senior Writer
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (NNS) -- Naval Hospital (NH) Jacksonville was awarded the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Level III recognition for its Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) Feb. 14.
NCQA Level III, the nation's highest level of recognition for patient-centric care, was awarded to all primary care clinics (Family Medicine, Internal Medicine and Pediatrics) at the hospital and all five of its branch health clinics.
The Navy's approach to the Patient-Centered Medical Home is Medical Home Port, which places patients in the center of a collaborative team of caregivers - from doctors to nurses and case managers-led by the primary care manager.
Founded in 1990, NCQA is a private not-for-profit organization that works to improve health care quality.
Earning The Joint Commission Gold Seal of Approval during its re-accreditation process in January, NH Jacksonville was recognized for its continuing compliance with The Joint Commission's state-of-the-art, national standards of care.
"In achieving Joint Commission accreditation, Naval Hospital Jacksonville has demonstrated its commitment to the highest level of care for its patients," says Mark G. Pelletier, The Joint Commission's Division of Accreditation and Certification Operations chief operating officer.
The Joint Commission is the nation's oldest and largest standards-setting and accrediting body in health care. Founded in 1951, it accredits more than 20,000 health systems in the U.S.
"Through sequestration, reduced budgets and civilian furloughs this past year, Naval Hospital Jacksonville continued to provide our nation's heroes and their families with world-class health care," said Capt. Gayle Shaffer, NH Jacksonville commanding officer. "This recognition and accreditation demonstrates that our Medical Home Port teams are making a positive difference in the lives of our patients."
The MEDIG team, after reviewing 60 programs (from research ethics to patient access) in January, offered a resounding endorsement of the command's safe, high-quality medical treatment.
NH Jacksonville's priority since its founding in 1941 is to heal the nation's heroes and their families. The command is comprised of the Navy's third largest hospital and five branch health clinics across Florida and Georgia. Of its patient population - about 163,000 active and retired sailors, soldiers, Marines, airmen, guardsmen and their families - more than 61,000 are enrolled with a primary care manager at one of its facilities.
To find out more, visit the command website at www.med.navy.mil/sites/NavalHospitalJax.

SpiceZee Nectaplum chill hours
chippiwaAugust 26, 2007
I am hoping to plant a SpiceZee Nectaplum next year, am curious about the chill hours needed, but cannot find any information from Dave Wilson. Since I am in Southern CA this is a concern. Any advice is welcome.
Hi, I am hoping to plant a SpiceZee NectaPlum too. I actually ordered it already. Tom was not sure about the chill hours but he guessed it to be around 300 hours. I was concerned and I live in Southern California also. I will be giving it a try as soon as they deliver the bareroots. I had the pleasure of taste testing The SpiceZee Nectaplum at two of Dave Wilson's events. They were FANTASTIC.

Yes Tex, I understand the common man's perspective. They sat up and barked when their masters rang the bell. And no price was too high for the poor sods to pay.
What most people don't realize is that Texas won the civil war. The last battle of the war was the battle of Palmito Ranch, fought more than a month after Lee surrendered. Texas forces won.
I don't know why history books are wrong about who won.
I feel like I'm sitting at Bull Run here...no smoke or bloodshed...yet...
I'm not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information.

Historical Traveler Reviews The Haven Inn Sydney
Nice Place
I stayed here for 5 nights during a recent trip to Sydney & I found it to be a nice place to stay. It is a budget hotel so its not very flash but having said that its very clean & comfortable and has everything you need. I didn't have any problems with noise either. The area is nice too - theres plenty of shops, restaurants and cafes nearby. There is a good bus service into the city centre, it takes about 15 - 20 minutes to get to Circular Quay & The Rocks area and theres a bus stop just across the road. No complaints at all!
A Total Rip-Off
My husband and I found The Haven Inn on the Internet while planning our upcoming holiday to Australia. The photos and description boasted of a recent remodel, and positive reviews helped us to decide to give it a try. However, while the hotel accepted my offer of $95 (AUD) per night for six nights, which is a good rate for Sydney, in our estimation, the photos and description of the Inn are not an accurate reflection of the Inn.
We arrived at the Inn to find a woman that in our estimation surely must have been a hooker loitering at the entryway. Our "remodeled" room was a dark hole with very thin walls and a board inbetween the mattress and box spring. Several people were swimming in their pool outside and we could hear every word. Plus the air conditioner was noisy.
Not at all the fault of the Inn, we were led to believe it was located closer to the area of Sydney we had planned to spend the majority of our time. So we were very disappointed to discover this was not the case, and that transport by taxi would run us about $15 each way, and less expensive by bus of course, but more time consuming. So between that discovery and the condition of our room and the Inn as a whole, we decided to stay elsewhere.
By now it was late afternoon/early evening as we approached the front desk. We kindly explained that we would not stay there after all, but were certainly willing to pay for that first night. The person at the front desk told us that the Inn would suffer from our late cancellation as they had every other room booked and they would have surely booked our room and would now suffer a loss.
In our estimation, this was a lie, but the man at the front desk charged us $125 (AUD) anyway for that night. From what we could tell, it would be hard to believe they were fully booked for the upcoming weekend, let alone that night. We feel given the condition and location of the Inn, we were taken advantage of and our offer to pay for the first night even though we weren't staying there at the agreed upon rate of $95/night should have been enough to settle the matter.
At any rate, anyone out there trying to plan a trip to Sydney on a budget, think twice about The Haven Inn. Their recent remodel may include some paint and low-grade carpet, but that's about it from what we could tell.
Great - location, price and friendly service made a perfect stay
I needed a hotel close to Darling Harbour and the CBD, but not one located right in the city centre...I always go for hotels in the suburbs to experince the great restaurants and coffee shops.
The Haven Inn gave me everything I wanted. I was able to park my car in the hotel and proceed directly to the reception where I was met with a smile and friendly greeting.
My room, for the price of under $150 plus breakfast for only $5.00 could not have been better. New carpet, bedspreads and even the flat screen TV only made the stay better. Everything was clean as you would want and a decent sized heated swimming pool.
Even better, its a hop skip and a jump to some of the best restaurants and bars in the area, and a short drive to Broadway shopping centre and cinema.
Couldn't recommend this hotel more!
Lies Lies Lies!
This motel sounds great on paper but in reality their so-called 3.5* superior rooms look more like the kind of establishments rented per hour. The 'refurbished' rooms are filthy and even when we were moved to a cleaner room, it had cockroaches! The staff were rude and unhelpful when i complained about the in-accuracy of the room descriptions. Oh and yes, you can see a a tiny little harbour bridge from a tiny balcony, but only if you have a room on the top floor. You can honestly get a far better deal for your money elsewhere. Don't waste your money here or on the 'continental breakfast' on offer as I wouldn't feed it to a dog, continental or not.
Excellent Value for Money
Room 114 - Saturday 22nd May -> Thursday 27th May
Having read the mixed reviews on the site I decided to keep an open mind when staying at the Haven Inn. The Haven Inn has a standard check-in time of 2pm, I arrived at 10:30am and was pleased to find that my room was ready and they checked me in straight away. The reception staff were friendly and processed the check-in with no problems. Don't expect any help getting your bags up the stairs though. If you've got a heavy bag to take to your room, ask for a room on the first floor.
When I got to the room it smelt a bit stale. This was quickly fixed by opening the door to the balcony for a few hours. The room is nothing worth writing home about, but it is functional and in adequate condition, sure the draws are a bit stiff to open, and some of the furniture has cosmetic damage, but for $89* a night ($110* on Saturday) and in this location what more can I expect?
A quick check of the fridge and I soon discover that there is plenty of milk for the tea and coffee drinker, so I make myself a cup of tea (yes, you need to fill the kettle at the bathroom sink, but at least the sink has enough room to get the kettle under the tap).
I set-up my laptop on the desk which thankfully provided 2 power outlets, one for my laptop and one for my speakers or digital camera charger (damn, i forgot my powerboard). While waiting for my laptop to boot I discovered the yellow and white pages in the desk draws, and amazingly they're both in good condition. This reminds me, aren't there bibles in every hotel/motel room? Strange, there isn't one here. Lucky I'm not religious. If you are religious, remember to bring your own bible.
I jumped on the bed to have my cuppa tea and watch the TV (which is actually a decent sized TV, not a ------ little one). Eeeek, the TV remote is held together by sticky tape and rubber bands, and it's missing a couple of buttons. Oh well, it still works fine, I just have to remember the blue buttons are for volume, and Channel 7 is on the number 8 button, not on the 7 button as I would expect. The TV has an AV channel, so I would assume it is capable of acepting your preferred games machine, but I have been unable to locate the plugs for this, so it might be a bit hard to plug it in.
Time to check out the room. A nice big shower, pity about the low water pressure and the small leak it has that sprays water on the roof causing it to drip cold water onto me (and going by the look of the roof it has been dong this for a while). The hot and cold taps weren't labelled, but with the 30 seconds it took for the hot water to start coming through this wasn't going to cause me to get burnt. Still in the bathroom the plug for the hair-dryer looks a bit dodgy, it isn't properly mounted on the wall, but it is well out of the way and doesn't pose any risk (it looks wedged in the corner near
the ceiling).
The fridge that is provided is nice and cold, it makes a few weird noises at night, but it works and isn't any louder that my laptop's hard disk.
Anyway, time for a ciggy. Now, where's the ashtray? Well after an extensive search of the 8 draws and the ample cupboard space I can't find one. I'll just go on the blacony and have a smoke out there. The door lock is a bit awkward to open (you have to turn the key completely in one direction, until it clicks before you turn it in the other direction). The view from my balcony is pretty good, I over look the lawn in front of the Glebe Library.
The traffic noise is a bit much during the day, but with the door closed the sound of the buses is the only one that is at all obtrusive, and they seem to stop at night so it doesn't effect my sleep.
Time to find out about the area this hotel is in. There are a couple of small convinience stores nearby, so that's useful, and a 10 minute walk down the road and I've found enough restaurants to be able to eat at a different one every night for a year or so. There are some nice cafe's around here too (the cafe next to the Valhalla Cinema makes some great foccacias for lunch).
If you're at the Haven Inn on a Saturday don't spend too much time in your hotel room. There are people everywhere, markets down at the local school (about a 10 minute walk away) and plenty of cafes to sit and relax at (assuming you can find a seat).
Anyway, I'm digressing from the point of this web site, which is to provide a review of the hotel.
Basically I think the hotel could make a few minor improvements which would make for a more pleasurable stay. A smokers tray on the blacony to stop my ciggy butts from piling up in the corner of the balcony, air the rooms out or use some air freshner every so often and fix the power point for the hair dryer.
Oh, I failed to mention the air conditioner. It looks brand new and is one of those climate control ones where you set it to a desired temperature and it'll keep the room at that temperature.
Overall the staff are friendly, although, if you ask them for too much I'm sure they would quickly become annoyed (remember, this isn't a 5 star hotel, they're here to provide you a room, not to jump when you ask them too). The room service people were friendly and provided me with extra milk and tea when I mentioned I had run out.
The car park isn't over booked, and has enough room for about 25 cars (if you are one of the last to arrive in the car park you may need to leave your keys with reception).
The hotel does have a swimming pool but it's the middle of winter, so I haven't even looked at the pool. There is also a restaurant section for breakfast, but getting myself organised to eat in the mornings is too close to impossible for me, so I've only had early lunches at one of the cafe's down the road.
Overall I think this hotel is good value for money, assuming you're willing to pay for location as opposed to quality. If you're friendly to the staff they will be friendly in return (yes, I have found myself caught in a conversation with the reception staff when I was wanting to go down the street) and they're willing to help out customers as best they can. The bed is fairly hard, but still comfortable (I'm used to a water-bed at home), and the room is clean. What more can you want from a cheap hotel?
Would I recommend the hotel to others? Well that depends on who they are. My housemates are used to 5 star hotels, and as such I wouldn't even think about suggesting they stay here. My father on the other hand would only be looking for a place to sleep, and I would recommend the Haven Inn to him without a second thought. So to put it simply, if you're planning on spending your time in Sydney away from your hotel and the hotel is simply a place to rest at night then the Haven Inn is a great place to stay. If you're wanting to spend a lot of time in your hotel room, or you're used to the services of a 5 star hotel then go somewhere that charges $200 a night and enjoy your hotel. Next time I'm in Sydney I will have no problems with staying here again, it's centrally located, there are busses on the door-step (well over the road) and I don't want to pay double the price to have a spiffy looking hotel room that I will only use to sleep in.

The Haven is a superb hotel in a superb location
I have now stayed at the Haven 5 times and will from now on make the Haven my first choice in Sydney. Being a single women travelling on business from the US, i find the location superb- Glebe is so eclectic, wherever you turn there is something interesting to see! As my meetings are in the city i just hop on the light rail or the bus right at the door and am downtown in 5 minutes. I find the rooms very quiet and in fact the windows are double glazed. The rooms have all just been refurbished with polished timber floors or new carpets and i love new bathrooms! I have stayed in many hotels in Sydney and nowhwere have i found more comfortable and safe accommodation , so well located, for such a bargain price. Where else can you get breakfast for just $5! and the staff are so friendly they make me feel so at home.
I agree with the second reviewer ...
I was curious that the reviews are so variable on this hotel, so decided to find out for myself. The result? Okay... The location is good, but the hotel is unattractive and very noisy. The staff were friendly but not terribly competent! The rooms were nothing to write home about.
Loved the location & staff
I used this website to research although very helpful in some areas I wouldn't take the reviews seriously. Particularly the one about dirty celings. I stayed at this hotel and was taken back with the helpful staff, friendly atmosphere and great location. You can hope on the light rail, walk to darling harbour or get buses across the road. I will stay there again when in sydney. Very affordable. But don't take my word for it nor the negative ones..
Great little hotel
Wife and I stayed there for 5 nights recently. Rooms quite adequate, with small balcony, great breakfasts for $5.00, clean, and with very friendly staff. Only 15 minutes and $2.70 from Sydney CBD by bus, and a variety of restaurants nearby. We would stay there again!
This hotel is terrible
Don't even think about staying in this hotel!!! The write up makes it sound nice, but the rooms are horrible, the decor is grimy (especially the ceiling) and the smell unpleasant. Most of all the management are surly, unhelpful and rude. Definitely give this one a miss - it was the worst place by far I stayed during my 3 week trip.

Truth and Lies About Why We Buy

How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today's message-cluttered world? An eye-grabbing advertisement, a catchy slogan, an infectious jingle? Or do our buying decisions take place below the surface, so deep within our subconscious minds, we're barely aware of them?
In BUYOLOGY, Lindstrom, who was voted one of Time Magazine's most influential people of 2009, presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking, three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study, a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what seduces our interest and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores:
Does sex actually sell? To what extent do people in skimpy clothing and suggestive poses persuade us to buy products?
Despite government bans, does subliminal advertising still surround us – from bars to highway billboards to supermarket shelves?
Can "Cool" brands, like iPods, trigger our mating instincts?
Can other senses – smell, touch, and sound - be so powerful as to physically arouse us when we see a product?
Do companies copy from the world of religion and create rituals – like drinking a Corona with a lime – to capture our hard-earned dollars?
Filled with entertaining inside stories about how we respond to such well-known brands as Marlboro, Nokia, Calvin Klein, Ford, and American Idol, BUYOLOGY is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced – or turned off – by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
MARTIN LINDSTROM was voted by Time Magazine as one of the world's most influential people of 2009 for this work on neuromarketing. As one of the world's most respected marketing gurus with a global audience of over a million people, Lindstrom spends 300 days on the road every year, advising top executives of companies including McDonald's Corporation, Procter & Gamble, Nestlé, Microsoft, The Walt Disney Company and GlaxoSmithKline. He has been featured in The Washington Post, USA TODAY, Fast Company, and more. His previous book, BRANDsense, was acclaimed by the Wall Street Journal as one of the ten best marketing books ever published.

"Lindstrom takes us on a fascinating journey inside the consumer brain. Why do we make the decisions we do? Surprising and eye opening, Buyology is a must for anyone conducting a marketing campaign."
-Ori Brafman, author of the bestselling book, Sway
"Full of intriguing stories on how the brain, brands and emotions drive consumer choice. Martin Lindstrom's brilliant blending of marketing and neuroscience supplies us with a deeper understanding of the dynamic, largely unconscious forces that shape our decision making. One reading of this book and you will look at consumer and producer behavior in an entirely new light."
-Philip Kotler, Ph.D., S. C. Johnson & Son Distinguished Professor of International Marketing, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University

I brewed this today and I hope it turns out well. I got a OG of about 1.080 so starting out ok. I made my own candi sugar and I think that was where I lost the point.
Question: would anyone wash this yeast or will it not be a good idea to wash this one since they might be too stressed?
So I did this recipe back in Early August. So about 3 months ago and kinda forgot about it. I recorded an OG of 1.088. When I checked it last night I was thinking it might be 1.015. Nope it was all the way down to 1.000. I checked it multiple times and it was sure enough 1.000. So I tasted it and oh man was it good. I felt like I could have just drank the stuff uncarbonated and room temp. I can't wait to try this after bottling for another couple months.
Oh yeah and by the way I used a dry yeast called Safbrew s-33. So anyone wanting to save a couple bucks use this stuff.
Bottled this two weeks ago and tasted it today. There is a lot more hop to this than I was expecting. Good though.
If you're gonna do wrong buddy, do wrong right!
Patience definitely pays off with this beer. I brewed Fatty Liver's version 8/4, bottled 8/23. It took at least 8 weeks for proper carbonation to develop. Once there it was definitely worth it. Nice, complex Belgian strong ale. With a bit more ageing it should mellow a bit more. Yummy!
Follow-up: been about 4 months now since I brewed the first batch and have to say this is an amazing extract beer. I've never had the original chimay blue (sad) but the wife has and says this is "better" than she remembers it. All I know is that it's turned out fantastic and has been well worth the wait. My mother in law doesn't like beer (big time wine snob) but loves this beer as it reminders her of a good red. Not sure I agree with that but glad she likes it....lol
My second batch is slightly stronger (9.7% if I remember correctly but would have to check my notes) and is still pretty young in the bottle but I'm amazed how much the "hot" alcohol burn has mellowed out with time. Very pleased and recommend others give it a go if they're thinking of trying it.
So last night brewing this....I messed up and didn't put the wine yeast in at 15min. How will that affect things? Yeast activity hasn't started in the last 8 hours. Temp in the basement is about 65.
I used one vial of WLP 500 and pitched it straight in since I was wrapping up everything around 1am.
Is there any point in boiling some water now with the wine yeast and pitch that for nutrients?
WLP500 took forever to kick off in my starter and that was with a stir plate, low OG (1.035ish) and yeast nutrient. One vial will definitely be under pitched and will take several days to take off I would think. I would add another vial of 500 if you can and the nutrient. If you aren't able too, it will still make beer.
I took this to a family function last night. It was a HUGE success! I took 4 bombers and brought 1 home, everyone said they would have drank more if they didn't have to drive. Everyone loved it though.

Arizona Diamondbacks
D-backs' GM weighs in on Ryan Roberts' ups and downs
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Ryan Roberts has been through his share of highs and lows this season.
After struggling through an abysmal April, Roberts has seemingly found his stride offensively over the past two months. While his contributions with the bat haven't gone unnoticed, D-backs General Manager Kevin Towers has been concerned with the decline of his third baseman's play at the hot corner.
"I think probably the one area I've been most disappointed in is the defense went a little bit south from last year," Towers told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Show Wednesday." Last year he played a very good third base over there. I think offensively he's been very good the last four to six weeks. So the defense could continue to improve."
While Roberts' seven errors in the field have certainly cast a shadow over the third baseman's improved production at the plate, Towers knows the effort and tenacity is there.
"He plays hard," Towers said. "I think that's what you love about his style of play. That's the way he was last year, too. Ryan plays with his hair on fire, hard as he can, sometimes to his detriment.
"That's who he is. He's one of those guys that's probably not going to cut his swing down, not going to hit a little single the other way. His game is swinging hard and elevating the ball and hitting the ball out of the ballpark."
Good things often happen for Roberts and the D-backs when he's swinging the bat well and if his recent success at the plate is any indicator, the club could stand to feed off his heroics.
"If there's somebody that's going to hit a big home run for us to win it, it's Ryan Roberts," Towers said. "He finds a way to come up with the big hits when you need it."

Planting Murray cypress, can I do it without watering in
cjgoodeMarch 12, 2013
I will be at my property for 10 days at the end of March. I want to plant some Murray Cypress seedlings, I can water then in by hand for those 10 days, but then will have to leave them, would not be back there till end of May. Will they survive, is there anything special I can do to help them. No one will be there to water them, and the water will not be on.
Also any good places to buy them, I am south of Asheville. I am also looking at ordering them on the web, with little money and a need for a lot of them I will be doing the small 12 inch ones that I can pick up for about $2 a piece shipped.
Thanks Chris

Stop It is a parody of the the A&E show Intervention. The show was created by Mike Rose for Channel 101, and ten short episodes were created before it was cancelled. Below are my favorite episodes, in order of awesomeness.
For what it's worth, I do enjoy Intervention. But I think Stop It does a terrific job of skewering the inherent weirdness of Intervention, and its tropes -- the bluntness of the interventionists, the weird family drama (including super-inappropriate outbursts), and the... READ ON
In today's bit of absurd comedy awesomeness, comedians Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan present dueling Michael Caine impersonations. I prefer Brydon (the guy in the gray sweater), but Coogan makes a good point about Caine's self-interruption (his "broken voice"). This makes me really, really want to get BBC2. But alas, I'm stuck with BBC America, which isn't showing this program yet. (This is a small clip from the new show The Trip.) Sample line: "I can't go fast because... READ ON

The Old Grey Whistle Test was a BBC TV show featuring live music. It ran from 1971 through 1988 on BBC2, and many performances are now collected on YouTube -- I'll show you some favorites below. But what the heck does "Old Grey Whistle Test" mean? According to host Bob Harris, the name comes from:

GiGi Paraffin Wax Collection 12 17
GiGi Parafin Wax is AWESOME!! I received my shipment of the GiGi Parafin Wax the Sweet Vanilla and it was delivered right on time. As some of the reviews said it was a little strong in the smell. I love anything Vanilla, so for me it was absolutely delightful. It went all through my house and everyone loved the smell. I have Arthritis and this does take the pain in my hand away. I dip my hand 3 times in the wax and then put the bag over it with a towel wrapped around it and leave it on til cool. I do this twice and my pain is gone and my hand is not hurting at all. Love this product and would recommend it to anyone that has hand pain. It also leaves your hands very soft and no greasy feeling at all. You will not be sorry if you purchase this product. I will definitely be ordering again when I run out of this product. Thank you Sally for a wonderful product and a smooth transaction. January 4, 2015
Good wax product. My husband has arthritis in his hands, and I use this on them daily. It smells good, and does a good job. the price is a little high, but the performance is great. January 10, 2014
I have asthma and allergies, and had hoped that the vanilla scented wax would work for me. Unfortunately it was much too strong, so the manager of my local store suggested I order the unscented on line. It worked great and I am enjoying the paraffin bath is great!!!! I look forward to using it a lot. January 5, 2013
Great Scent! So I ordered a bunch of this wax at a great price to go with the GiGi paraffin wax spa that I also ordered. Of course I got the wax and then was told the spa was out of stock! So I bought a Revlon one for much cheaper and I love it!! Back to the wax....it's inexpensive and it smells like peaches..not too overpowering.. and it gets the job done! Breaks up easily the first time you put it in the spa and melts reasonably fast. Will order it again! December 9, 2012

Aftermath story documenting the disaster, resilience and recovery of 82 year old Cardwell resident, Jim Mealing after cyclone Yasi ravaged his home town of Cardwell, North Queensland in February 2011.
Jim was forced out of his home and into the garage when cyclone Yasi hit North Queensland and... "a quarter of the roof got torn off like an animal grabbing it and tearing it off..."
Jim shares his experience being caught in the middle of cyclone Yasi and the process of recovery. Through ABC Open, Mission Beach resident, Mark Nissen, Magnetic Island resident, Matt Whitton and SES volunteer, Mark Brake, contribute videos and photos to help tell Jim's story. Previous Townsville resident, Simon James and band Ghost Notes contribute their music to the film's sound track to create a collaborative documentary.
Jim Mealing explains that there is always an end to the struggle where after you go through the process of rebuilding everything is rejuvenated again. He acknowledges that the waiting period affected a lot of people in the region and that even now people are still waiting for things to get better. Being a Korean war veteran, he compares the disaster of cyclone Yasi to the disasters of war and discusses the importance of remembering the difficult times in life with his daughter. Sandra believes it's time to get on with life after an event like cyclone Yasi has passed rather than to dwell on the disaster.
What do you think?
After many months living in his garage Jim Mealing moves back into his house. He describes the feeling as wonderful, 'like moving from a paddock into big open spaces.' Sandra visits and together they look through photos that were damaged in the storm deciding what to keep, what to throw out and what needs to be replaced.
Follow people recovering from natural disasters in ABC Open's "Aftermath: Disaster, Resilience, Recovery" Project and contribute by sharing your stories of disaster, resilience and recovery. Your photos and videos may feature in an ABC Open Aftermath documentary.

Correcting Common Misconceptions About Air Travel
By editor
The claims airline passengers make about flights are often embellished. During turbulence, for example, passengers may think a plane is dropping hundreds of feet, when it's never typically more than 20. Airline pilot Patrick Smith, writes the Ask The Pilot column for Salon.com. He sets the record straight on common air travel myths.

New fridge style - Samsung
Saw this fridge at HD tonight. New model according to Samsung's website.
French door with four doors. Lower right doubles as extra fridge space as it has different temp settings. I thought this could be handy.
The doors have slots for handles, nothing sticks out and the case is 31 inches deep. The front bows to the middle but seems to save a couple inches by not having handles stick out.
Inside seems well thought out for storage. Ice maker makes ten pounds of ice daily.
So what do you all think? How does it look to you?
So who has a Samsung that they like?
from homedepot.com, Model #: RF32FMQDBSR
32 cu. ft.
Use and care manual is here:
The manual indicates this one is 35.75" wide and deep.
Price = $4k
This is the fridge I'm planning to put in my new kitchen. The builder is adding depth to the cabinetry and recessing the fridge a bit to give it the illusion of counter depth.
The draw for me is the total capacity and the right hand side bottom section operating as a fridge rather than a freezer. I had wanted a full fridge but couldn't find what I was looking for. This Samsung seems to fit well enough.
I'm a bit hesitant to commit to something that lacks consumer reviews.
BestBuy.com has it for $3059.
Most of the reviews I have seen have been positive.
The negative reviews are almost all about the lower portion having a divider that takes up room and can't fit larger items. No s^$% Sherlock, you can see that from the basic pictures and general concept since the lower half has two cooling compartments.
One guy does not like the inverted handles, again another duh moment. Within the first minute you can see Samsung chose high style over function with those handles. That is the target audience. Don't like don't buy.
I hear the words 'french doors' and run away quickly! My wife and I both prefer side by side. We are currently renting a home while our new house is being built (less than two months left!) and it has a french door with freezer on the bottom. I curse every time I need something from the freezer.
We are putting the Samsung RSG309AARS in the new home and are very excited to access the freezer while standing up!
I notice that the KA french door nearly always has water droplets on the panel that sits between the french doors. The water drips down and lands on the freezer door. If the same thing happens on this samsung, won't water droplets also form on the center panel of the freezer door? Where will it drip to? The floor?
While I like the look of a FD, I am finding that I am not so crazy about its functionality.
