Obama to Name Two Openly LGBT Individuals to AAPI Commission
April 25, 2014 by Remington Gregg, Legislative Counsel
President Barack Obama today announced his intention to appoint fourteen individuals to the President's Advisory Commission on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI), including two who are openly LGBT.
Actor Maulik Pancholy, best known for his roles on 30 Rock and Weeds, and businessman Michael Byun, who also serves on the Ohio Governor's AAPI Advisory Council, are joining the Commission, which is charged with working to improve the quality of life of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders through increased participation in and access to federal programs.
The AAPI can be a powerful tool for LGBT members of the Asian American and Pacific Islanders community, and we look forward to continuing to work with the Commission and the White House on issues that are important to the AAPI LGBT community.

THOMASVILLE, GA. — Flowers Foods Inc. has unveiled a new look for its Mrs. Freshley's line of snack cakes and pastries, including packaging with a bright modern design that complements a new logo unveiled earlier this year.
Flowers said the updated packaging provides product descriptions and includes "captivating photos" on the multi-pack boxes, while the cellophane-wrapped, single-serve packs have a clear window area showcasing the product. In addition, consumers may learn more about Mrs. Freshley's from the "Wide Variety of Quality Snacks" section on the back of the boxes.
"While the new packaging honors the Mrs. Freshley's tradition, the photography and more contemporary design make the statement that this is the snack of today — on the go or anytime," said Brent Bradshaw, vice-president of brand marketing. "This new look will grab the attention of not just Mrs. Freshley's fans, but new customers as well."
The brand also is launching the "Spot the Mrs. Freshley's Sweet New Look" giveaway. As part of the contest, consumers are encouraged to take a picture of the new packaging and submit it on Mrs. Freshley's Facebook page. Every week, 20 fans will be selected at random to win a package of Mrs. Freshley's products. The contest culminates with a grand-prize giveaway — free Mrs. Freshley's for a year. The contest ends May 26.

Mantis Tiller Fuel Tank
I have a vintage Mantis tiller (SV-2AE engine) circa 1983-1987, and used the heck out of it up until a few years ago. I wanted to use it today, but the fuel tank is cracked across the top along or near the seam. I looked up the replacement part (Echo 13101005920), but it is obsolete and out of stock everywhere I looked. So, I want to repair the tank I have by some method. I was thinking about painting epoxy or silicon around the whole tank. Suggestions?
Had this happen on to me on ryobi trimmer gas tank. I got two part epoxy and glue it. Course I cleaned and sanded the tank before to give it something to stick to and course the tank was empty and dry. Look at the hardware store I think you can find something compatible that will work to bond it back togather Most plastic tanks are glued togather anyway
I have never tried to repair a plastic gas tank, but I bought an old 1981 Troy Bilt that someone has tried repairing the tank with silicone and it is coming loose. I have no idea how long ago the repair was made but I will be trying to repair it in the future with something else.
I have had pretty good luck using E600, Goo or maybe goop, I have also used a product called "through the roof". But none of these repairs have been made on a gas can. I often use some type of webbing like fiberglass or dental floss embedded in the glue.
I have a plastic mirror mount on my pickup that was broken several years ago and it is still holding.
The E6000 and goo or goop both can be found at walmart, the through the roof product I buy at ace hardware.
UPSIDE DOWN! I have 1987. Used once (same ) ok one rubber hose, one smaller plastic gas Jug. . Dont fill full of gas/ andmy chainsaw tank worked as good. Use water to test it out, leaks etc. The gas jug. The McCullough Chainsaw tank + One hose was better. Its just gas (don't let it Leak!

Why the Rashean Mathis signing was a big move for the Detroit Lions
Getting Rashean Mathis back to the Detroit Lions for a 2 year $3.5 Million contract was a huge signing for the team this off-season.

To start off, he is an experienced veteran who hasn't lost his step. At age 33 last year, he played...

Hobby Lobby - Craft Light Bulbs ..
I was at Hobby Lobby yesterday and wandering through the stained glass aisle . They have blank glass things to paint or mosaic .... This caught my eye . They're LIGHTBULBS. They look exactly like a lightbulb sitting with the metal side up . 2 sizes. Have you seen these ? Boy - I wish I knew what to do with them !!!
Not sure what you are saying, I know you have seen the lite bulbs that have been painted on, on the fourm, are these like them and you buy them cause you just cant wait for a bulb to burn out LOL! have seen ones where the insides are taken out and used for a vase, give us some more info, you have me wondering!
Hi Luvs, she had used up all of our old socks so she had to use new socks, just cut off the cuff, turned them inside out and gathered the part that was cut. Then she put it on the bulb, turning back the cuff around the face, then glued the entire rim. She adjusted the sock so it falls to the left, then lifted the sock slightly and glued underneath the folds to keep it in place. Added the pompom and a few decorations, a string and it is finished. She used really pretty blues and lavender paints sponged on with lighter color around the face. What you can't see in the photo is the ultra fine glitter glue she put on. She makes them every year and sells out but I was able to keep a few for my tree. Glad you liked him. You can do the same thing with frosted round ornaments and felt for the hat - all really cute.
These are so easy to make. Of course you use old burned out bulbs but we sold so many of these that I had to go to the Dollar Tree and bought new ones for 25 cents each. The socks are very cheap ones, usually about 6 pairs to a package. I buy tube socks or calf socks and I try to keep them in the children sizes - men sizes can be too big in the calf. The one above was turne inside out and stitched closed on the cut end. Then you pull it over the metal part of the bulb, turn the cuff back and hot glue to the bulb. Then fold the other end over to the side and hot glue in place, add a pom pom and I use carpet thread as string.
Sunny, I sponged on the face with white, a bit of lilac and a bit of a light blue, keeping it very light but where you could still see some of the colors. The eyes are dotted on with the handle of my brush, then I floated a little blue around the left side of the eyes and under the nose. The eyes have a comma stroke of blue and the mouth is done with a permanent pen. The cheeks are done before the nose and I used a piece of red pastel pencil. I scratched the pencil on a piece of paper and then used an old scruffy brush to pick up the pastel and brushed it on in a round circle.
Once it is done I brushed a coat of glitter glue over the entire snowman - by the way, I did all the painting before I put the sock on.
Hope yall get to make some. I am enclosing another photo of a small lightbulb and one where I painted a Santa on it. The last one is from a photo I have had on my computer but I have no idea who did it or where I got it. It shows you can also do the same thing with children's mittens.
Sorry the Santa is so blurred, I scanned it but when I get another finished I will post a picture from the camera.
I have been painting for more than 25 years and I hate all the work of transferring patterns, so I pretty much freehand just about everything. The Santa face starts off with with an oval patch of flesh color paint. From there I draw up the left side of the nose and over the eyebrow, almost like an unside down L, then the right side of the nose. From there I do the left eye, almond shape, then the right, a round circle for the bulb of the nose, the shape of the beard and mustache (the one above looks like I left off his top lip) and then I start painting in the rest. I am posting one of my Santas that I painted last year (and taught at my club). I usually post my paintings over on the Tole and Decorative Painting forum, so please stop by and take a look at what everyone is doing.
OMG!!! paintingfool, you are truly an artist!!! Those are absolutely beautiful!!! I do love all the pictures of Santa....I know exactly what you mean by scanning photos. Most times, they never turn out right and are blurred, or the color is off, or something. Your snowmen are adorable, and the one using a child's mitten is so colorful!! I wish I had half of your talent...sigh.
Thanks for the pics. You really have the shading & how to build up color down. I think that is where I get flustered. I have a deer painted on a rock. He looks great but he's not done as I have gotten to the finer shading etc & panic. I'm going to seal him so if I mess up I can wipe it off & not lose all my hard work. I do better free hand then trying to "fill-in" a pattern. Never comes out right. Just need few yrs of practice!! Jan
Donna, thanks for the compliment.
Sunny, the shading and highlighting are done in layers. Usually, I am a pastel painter so it may take three or four times floating the color before I get the right shade. Sometimes, after I am finish and I put a coat of varnish, I realize that it needs more so I come back again and put another float on.
I have seen everyones work on here and I think everyone of you are very good.
Oh, I didn't do the small snowman lightbulb or the one with the mitten for a hat - don't know where I got those pics but thought you would like to see them anyway.
paintingfool, I have to ask a question about the snowman lightbulb. Is he standing up straight when you paint the face on? It's kind of hard to tell in the picture. I want to start making one and make sure I do it right. Also you said to cut the cuff off the sock,(The one above was turned inside out and stitched closed on the cut end. Then you pull it over the metal part of the bulb, turn the cuff back and hot glue to the bulb.) so if I understood right, both ends are sewn shut? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks
When I paint I hold almost everything in my hands. If you sponge on the paint, dry it and then put it in the palm of your hand you should be able to dot his eyes. If you are right handed, dot the left eye first, it makes it easier to see where you are going. You can also make a dot of orange for his nose if you like, or I have been painting mine red and white candy stripe - different and cute.
You have the sock then down right. Just remember to glue under the cuff so it won't come off when you put the string on to hang it on the tree.
Let me know how it turns out.
Yes, I varnish several times. It helps seal the paint and it protects it. You should treat it as a glass ornament - which of course it is. You will do just fine I am sure. Can't wait to see a pic.
paintingfool, Hi- I finished my snowman. I will try to have my daughter scan it so I can show you. If you don't mind me asking, how much did your daughter sell hers for?
Do you have a picture of the candy cane nose? It sounds cute!
We live in an area that has a lot of crafters. My daughter sold hers for $6.00 but were worth a lot more. She had a lot of competition so she had to price accordingly. Although the attachment is not of a snowman lightbulb it does show the candy cane nose.

Trimming hoya
If I trim my hoya will new growth eventually sprout out from that area? My friend wants a piece of my hoya and since it's my favorite plant I'm hesitant to trim it lol. Thanks in advance.
I don't think you should hesitate to cut your plant unless it's really small, and then you should wait.
Yes, it will start growing from that node again. It won't necessarily choose that same node for its next growth effort - it might choose another one, but it will eventually get around to all nodes.
There are some Hoyas that branch, and with those you will often get two shoots from a node you cut back to, but I wouldn't describe this as a common Hoya trait.
The only Hoyas that I hate cutting are young, small multiflora/lasiantha/etc bushy type Hoyas, because they always seem to take for-EVER to regrow from the same node and they end up being so unbalanced looking for so long. But that's just me. ^_^'
> I don't think you should hesitate to cut your plant unless it's really small
Jess, consider posting a picture here, for us to tell you if we think it's big enough to cut. (I have an ulterior motive though, as I am also wondering how to know when a plant is large enough to cut).
When choosing a cutting for your friend, choose mature growth that is not too old - tender soft new shoots do not have enough energy in them to root, and old woody (on some species) growth does not root easily either. Last year's growth is perfect, even if it ends in a tender shoot. - that part may die partially, but the cutting is still likely to take because of the older growth there. For large leaf species, 2- or even 1-node cutting is enough. For smaller-leaf ones, that would be too tiny, so include more nodes.
Cut just above a node. It's most likely that the new growth on your plant will sprout from that node, although GG is right - it may also sprout from elsewhere.
Taking cuttings is often a chance to even out the shape of your plant - so take out uncooperative branches that stick out and make the plant look unbalanced - then both you and your friend benefit.
Here's my hoya! I rooted this guy as a 3 leaf cutting that was given to me by a nursery. (Plant was in real bad shape and was dying) it's probably 5 years old? I haven't really fertilized it much. I'm just now getting into organic gardening and learning about organic fertilizer (any suggestions are welcome ;-) ) and honestly it was gotten a little neglect here and there when I've had a lot going on in my life. This is by far my favorite plant. I wanted to share with my friend (and possibly trade for some other hoyas) but I didn't want to leave a stem/vine that wouldn't grow anymore. I googled it but didn't get any defining answers as to if it would grow back on that particular vine. Thank you all for your answers!
lol I love your sense of humor, GT
This is the way I see it.
Fall-winter is this time of year when the angel of death hovers near to your plants. Ideally, come fall, you want each plant to be big enough so that, should the angel kiss it, you will have enough plant left to re-root.
So, there is obviously a math equation! (I am totally making this up right now, so please do not take me seriously!)
X = ((B - N) / S) - T X = the number of nodes you have available to give away
B = how many nodes your plant currently has
N = how many healthy nodes/leaves you need to have a 98% likelihood of rooting the cutting
S = speed at which the plant loses healthy segments (node/week)
T = how many weeks it takes you to notice a plant is sick
My Hoya sigillatis is 6 nodes long. I need 3 nodes to be 98% sure of re-rooting it. If its roots die, it will perish at a rate of 1 node segment per week. It takes me 3 weeks to notice it is sick. ((6-3)/1)-3 = 0 nodes I can give away.
If I had life to live all over again, I probably wouldn't cut any Hoya until it had lived with me for over a year. For the first couple years a Hoya is like a teenager who just got their driver's license. And then after that it is 25+ and its insurance rate goes down dramatically.
At that point you can safely use this magical equation I made up in order to test whether or not I still knew math. (I'm still not sure - don't push me, math!)
Jess, your plant is mature and you have plenty to share, so I think you should cut with confidence. :)
As far as organic fertilizers go, fish emulsions are always good and I've also enjoyed using compost tea. Unfortunately both are stinky. :) But it goes away fast. Personally, the smell of neem oil annoys me more.
GG, you've got it right. I've never shared until a Hoya is at least a year or two old. And whether it's a year or two years depends on how well it's grown. There have been some I haven't shared until even much older, just because they have been slow growers for me. It's more about size and stability for me, and sometimes, I won't share until it's bloomed.
But JJ, your plant is plenty big. And you will NOT regret sharing. Trimming makes a plant say, "OMG, I better put out some new growth!!!" and it DOES. When I have a stalled plant, I take a cutting and, voila, soon I have new growth! I learned this lesson from one of my long gone dogs. Big old German Shepherd. You walk through the front door at the end of the day, the giant tail wags and KER-WHACKS a plant onto the floor, breaking it!! DANG DOG!!!! Six months later, the plant looks like a million bucks. 2+2... broken plant = forced new growth. YAY!

Good to know thanks for the tip! This plant is VERY slow growing for me. Like I said its 5 years old from a 3 leaf cutting. Maybe I'll take a cutting for my friend and take another to offer in a trade. Gonna try some organic fertilzer on it as well.
Well, Jess, if you decide you want to trade, I'd take a little cutting in exchange for something interesting. I have a 'Chelsea' that's just plain homely and I really wanted a clone like yours when I bought it. Just e-mail me through this site if you decide you want to trade.

Given the range of peculiar, often hard-to-explain gadgets coming out of Japan, you can't help feeling that the country's inventors may have a little too much time on their hands. If the products of the Tenga Company are anything to go by, they may have a lot more on their hands than just time.
Calling Tenga's line of products specialized is a bit of an understatement. The company devotes itself to one field of endeavor and one only: the artificial enhancement of male masturbation. To that end, Tenga markets a line of soft, plastic, sheathlike items ideally suited to the man who is too busy, too impatient, too socially retarded, or too funky-smelling to enjoy the comforts of a real, live sex partner.
But if you were thinking that such a monumental contribution to the convenience of modern life would have been enough, you were wrong. The restlessly inventive minds in Tenga's R&D department had something far more ambitious in mind. They were bent on creating nothing less than the greatest innovation in manly self-abuse since the opposable thumb. And that's just what they've done. Ladies and Gentlemen, the Tenga Flip Hole!
Advertised as "the next step in the future of masturbation," the Flip Hole pops open like your favorite cellphone, allowing you to coat the soft and squishy interior (textured with all manner of nubs, ribs, and fins) with your choice of lubricant (Mild, Real, or Wild). After that, simply shut the silicone-lined jaws of joy and go for it!
Once the gadget has done its job, the convenient flip-open feature makes thorough cleaning fast and easy—all it takes is a dab of hand soap and a splash of water, and the Flip Hole is as good as new. Afterward, prop it open to air-dry, and faster than you can say, "I'll never have to interrupt my World of Warcraft playing again," your instant girlfriend will be ready to administer to all your tension-reducing needs.
The one drawback of the Flip Hole is that its high-tech lining is good for only about 50 rounds. You may want to order by the case.
Can you get them in XXL?
Would your tone be as cynical if this were a write up about a female sex toy?
GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!!!! Now I have seen everything.You would have to be very lonely to use this ,or very antisocial.
I think Japan has more male toys then any place else
The best of both worlds! It's not your hand, and it won't talk to you while you're trying to fall asleep!
This is why I love Japan
I agree with xxx. How is this any different to a female owning a vibrator? I think it's much more socially acceptable than something moulded to look like the real thing.
I own one of these, my girlfriend of 8 years bought it for me as a valentines day gift for when Aunt Flo comes to visit.
Based on what I have heard, and the few films I have seen featuring oriental men, that thing is way too long for them to use the 'head' feature.
Hey, good to find smoonee who agrees with me. GMTA.

Sometimes when I stop playing an MMO, I feel a little bashful saying so on the blog lest it be turned against me ("Ha, you used to like this game!") or wielded as a weapon in the "Proof This Game Sucks" Olympics (est. 1997). But all of that is wrapped up in caring a little too much what other people think of me and my game time, which is weirdly narcissistic and not confident to tell the truth.
So my six-plus-one month subscription ran out on WildStar and I decided not to resub.
There's a lot of factors that went into the decision, but I'm confident that it's the right one for me right now. Basically, I'm not playing it enough at the moment to justify a sub and I'm ready for a break from its exhausting combat system. Really, I just about love everything in this game other than its combat, which I gradually realized when comparing my current experiences in WildStar to those in RIFT and SWTOR. Too many telegraphs, too long of fights, too much hopping around.
But there will be a lot I'll miss, starting with my guild and going on to the wonderful housing system, the delightfully wonky world, and not having seen any content past Farside. The last is really my fault; I'm kicking myself that I had to be all "the grass is greener with this class" and rerolled too many times, as I could have seen most all of the solo game by now.
Of course, it's never a goodbye (unless NCsoft shutters it, which that studio would never, ever do? Right?). It's an "until later." Like most experienced MMO gamers, I fully expect to see a free- or buy-to-play transition announced within a few months. NCsoft doesn't run strong on sub-only games, especially in the west, and it's invested too much not to try. A switch to either business model would open up the possibility for continued play on my own time, not on a subscription's, and I wouldn't object to that.
For now, it feels like a good move. I have enough to play as it is and there's plenty more I want to try. WildStar was a, erm, wild ride for 2014 — not necessarily the game I was hoping to get, but overall pretty engaging. I will continue to root for its success and comeback, if so slightly hypocritically from the sidelines.

CDR Cotes du Rhone 2010
Rhone Red Blends from Cotes du Rhone, Rhone, France
Winemaker's Notes
CDR Cotes du Rhone has a robust color and a nose of red fruits. The mouthfeel of this blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Cinsault is generous with tannins.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "A medium-bodied blend of Syrah, Grenache and Carignan, this wine offers a supple feel and plenty of red berry and cherry fruit, with just enough spice to give it additional interest. Drink it over the next year or so."
CDR Winery
CDR honors the history of quality winemaking in the Côtes du Rhône appellation. Wines have been produced in the region since pre Roman times and were celebrated by the kings and the Popes in residence at Avignon. The area had been become so renowned for its wines that in 1737 a royal edict mandated all casks of wine shipped from the district be branded with the letters CDR, in effect instituting the first system of authentication of origin in France 200 years before current AOC rules were written. CDR is Côtes du Rhône made in the traditional style from old vine bush trained gobelet pruned vines grown on the right bank of the Rhône River. View all CDR Wines
About Cotes du Rhone
The appellation of Côtes du Rhône encompasses much of the land of the area, not to mention much of the wine – over two-thirds of the wine produced here is of the Côtes-du-Rhône appellation. Wines here need only be from the Côtes de Rhône geographic area (which is fairly large) and consist of one or more of the 22 varieties permitted. Being such a wide classification, it's a surprise and joy that so many of these wines reach such a high quality. While there are areas in the Northern Rhône that meet the classification of Côtes du Rhône, most all of this appellation is in the Southern Rhône. Wines here are based mostly on Grenache, like other Rhône reds, while the whites focus on Marsanne and Roussanne. Viognier is also allowed although typically used in smaller quantities.
Notable FactsThere is one higher level in the Côtes du Rhône called Côtes du Rhône Villages. These wines are from specific village areas that have a few more standards the wine must reach to receive the village label. Some to take note of are Cairanne, Rasteau, Seguret and Beaumes-de-Venise. The good thing about both Côtes du Rhône and Côtes du Rhône Villages is that big producers of the smaller appellations are taking the opportunity and freedom offered by this broad appellation and creating wines of very high quality, and lower in price.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.

Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.

Lancaster challenges Croft to impress
ESPN Staff
March 5, 2013
Tom Croft could be back in action for England on Sunday © Getty Images
England's Stuart Lancaster has challenged Tom Croft to prove to him that he is worthy of a place in the squad for Sunday's Six Nations clash against Italy.
Croft last turned out for England during the 2012 championship and has spent a lengthy spell on the sidelines after he suffered a serious neck injury towards the end of the 2011-12 season. But he was called back into the international mix on Monday and he could face Italy on Sunday.
The 27-year-old flanker's comeback began in tentative fashion in January and he was expected to miss the entire championship, but Lancaster is prepared to give Croft his chance to impress.
"The desire to get Tom back into the squad is to give him a chance to put his hand up for selection against Italy and Wales," Lancaster said. "That's the priority for me - getting our best team on the field for the last two games of the Six Nations. He's got to prove in the next couple of days that he's back up to speed in our system, but he's a good player and I'm sure he'll do that.
"The only time I've worked with him was in last year's Six Nations and from my experience he was a great defender and carried the ball well. In the set-piece he was excellent. He was a very good offensive and defensive lineout option, and good at re-starts too."
Croft damaged his neck last April while tackling Harlequins back row Nick Easter and his comeback has been carefully managed since. The turning point in his rehabilitation came last week when a visit to the specialist revealed the injury had healed completely, with his superb display against Sale on Saturday resulting in his return.
"In consultation with the medical teams and (Leicester director of rugby) Richard Cockerill, we've brought him back into the camp. He's here tonight and available for Italy and Wales," Lancaster said. "It was never a selection decision - always a medical one, making sure he's right physically to come back and play at international level. One of the key markers was playing back to back games. That box was ticked when he played 80 minutes on the weekend and played outstandingly well.
"As soon as he was available, we definitely wanted to bring him back into camp and make him available for selection. It's great to have him back. He's a British and Irish Lion from 2009 and you saw from his performance at the weekend that he he's in form."

Methodological Individualism
Methodological Individualism is a form of analysis that views all social phenomena as results of individual action. Only individuals can act, even when those individuals form collectives. This also holds true for exchanges. Markets and prices for goods represent the aggregation of individual preferences. Markets and institutions, then, must be evaluated in terms of individuals, rather than arbitrary groupings like class, race, or nationality.

The Goal Is Freedom: No Substitute for History
AUGUST 03, 2007 by SHELDON RICHMAN
The great economist Ludwig von Mises showed that economics can be deduced from the axiom that human beings act: individuals consciously select ends and apply scarce means to achieve them. By examining the logical implications of that undeniable fact, one can come to understand the concepts value, cost, time preference, supply, demand, money, price, profit, interest, and so on. In light of this, it is noteworthy that Mises was also an accomplished historian. And more than that, he was an important historiographer; that is, he was interested in the why and how of history. This theorist who is so identified with the a priori method in economics also believed that a knowledge of history and its methods was indispensable to understanding the world. More . . .

A Warm Neutral
Susan Writes: I have a very open living area with vaulted ceilings. I have a chocolate brown couch, sage green carpet and gold wing-back recliners that have little flecks of burgundy and brown. I want to paint the walls with some color. They are stark white right now. I was also thinking of doing an accent wall as well. I need help with paint colors!
Hi Susan!
Since you want to warm up your space a little with color on the walls, you might want to pick a nice warm neutral that ties together all of your existing elements while keeping your space feeling fresh and up to date. Since your furniture is in earth tones, I think keeping that theme for the walls would be the way to go. A warmer neutral on the walls would make your vaulted and open living room feel a bit more cozy, and be a nice backdrop for your furnishings.
Depending on the amount of light you have in the room from windows and the color of your trim work, you might select a lighter or darker paint for the walls. Three options I would try are Olive Wood, Surrey Beige and Chatham Green. If you prefer something in the yellow family, Wishes or Autumn Haze by Glidden might be good options. I would suggest you get samples of several paint options and try them on various walls until you find something that is just right for your space! Good luck!
A Red Accent Wall?
anonymous Writes: My livingroom and kitchen are connected by a long wall which is the wall your eyes go to when you first walk in the front door. In the kitchen there is a big sliding glass door that let's in a lot of light and in living room 2 tall windows. The furniture is neutral mocha and cabinets and trim are light oak. The walls now are all a light neutral but I want some color. My decor Is a deep red and burnt orange (the big accent piece also has a touch of goldish color) I was thinking of painting the wall a red color and keep the rest of the walls neutral but I'm nervous it will be too dark and make the space feel smaller than it already is. Should I go with a red or a different color? See Answer From Nicole Balch »
Paint Colors that Complement Brown
Vicki Writes: My question is, we have built a home made out of block but with sheetrock interiors. The exterior has been painted a chocolate brown color. My question is I do not know what trim color to go with for my exterior doors. I also have a dilemma for the interior cause I have almost espresso colored cabinets and I want to incorporate a grey that I can paint on my walls that will go with both browns. I am looking for both wall color and trim color. See Answer From Melissa Michaels »

Creating a Cohesive Color Story
Jenna Writes: Hello!! I really need help picking out a dining room color. I just painted our entrance way a very light tan (more towards off white) and the kitchen a medium tan. I really want the dining room to add color to the first floor; my first thought was either an aqua or teal (the colors in our house are tan, brown, aqua, green, and red). However, I am having trouble picking out a color, because I also painted our front door Glidden Totally Teal- which I absolutely LOVE! When I painted the door I painted the front and back to add color in the entrance way, but now you can see it from the dining room. I guess my question is, what would be a good color to paint the dining room that goes with the different shades of tans in the kitchen and living room, but also with the Totally Teal door? Thank you for your help! See Answer From Eduardo Rodriguez »

Quick CO2 refills. One of the few spots in Dallas that does fills and not tank swaps.
Ace of Spades. It's always the winning hand.
Try a flight to get a taste of all Noble Ale Works' finest.
The Monte Cristo for brunch is a great way to start the day.
Get the goat cheese pizza. It never disappoints.
Watch out for the dust bunnies. They're big around these parts.
Try a flight. Best way to get a taste of all their beers...before you choose your favorite and drink more, of course.
The honey latte makes for a great second coffee of the day.
Pair your chicken with a fine craft beer (if you are 21+, of course)!
Get your pick-me-up from the Vietnamese coffee.
Try the moonshine. It's required.
Don't miss out on their nitro taps. They nitro in-house at Craft Pride so you may not find these beers on nitro anywhere else.
Great tour. You get to stand right in the middle of their brewing process and see how your favorite Peticolas brews get made.

Home Depot Cree LED lights
I am heading to Home Depot today to hopefully buy the Ecosmart (Cree) kits for my 6" cans. The sheetrock is totally off the ceiling in my kitchen.
Does anyone know why the price for 2 kits on HD is $59.94 but 1 is just $24.97? Why would anyone buy them in a pack of 2?
I want to make sure I get the right lightbulbs to go in them. I'm not sure which ones I want. i think it was mentioned here to get 2700K, but thats all I know.
Or maybe does the kit (ECO-575) include the lightbulb? I cant really tell. Thanks!
This post was edited by khallock on Wed, May 22, 13 at 10:34
Yes, it is one piece that is the "bulb" and the "trim" together.
Pricing moves around quite a bit. They don't have 2- or 4-packs in the store, just on the web. In many areas, the local utility subsidizes the price, which may be why you see the bargain $25 in your area. Where I live it is $35 currently.
2700k will look pretty much the color (very slightly whiter) of regular incandescent lights. Cree just announced more color temperatures in their CR6 line (3000k, 3500k, 4000k), but I haven't seen them online yet, and the may or may not appear in the Ecosmart/HD version.
Just something for you to think about, Cree sells an 800 lumen version of the CR6 in addition to a 575 lumen version. Only the 575 version is available at Home Depot (as EcoSmart). You can get the CR6-800L online (and maybe at some specialty lighting stores). The difference in price isn't that much, but if you're hoping for more light, it might be worth taking a look. The only difference is the lumens.
This post was edited by calumin on Wed, May 22, 13 at 12:10
HD carries both the 2700K (warm white) and 5000K (daylight) versions of the CR-6. Both are rated at 625 lumens, draw 9.5 watts, and have CRI of 90+.
Some folks prefer a higher color temp in task oriented areas. So you might consider the 5000K daylight version for the kitchen. But they do take a little 'getting used to'. I am currently converting the 4100K CFL cans in our kitchen to the 5000K CR-6. (Have 20+ 2700K CR-6s in the rest of the house.)
One other thing to watch for: At least here in California, they are offered both in normal Edison-style screw-in, and also GU-24 plug in. Be sure to get the correct version for the cans you are using.
I bought my Ecosmart lights online At HomeDepot.com and picked them up in the store. Online the output says 625 lumens, but the lights they gave me are in. Brown package, not green like the website, and it says 575 lumens. I'm attaching a picture. The model says ECO-575L right above and to the right of the UPC.
Did they give me the wrong lights? Maybe an older model? It says for 6-inch cans.
attofarad is right. the new cree 6" cr series lights are 625 lumens.
i think they did this after they released the 4" version which also puts out 575 lumens. some of the reports i read were that the 575l and 625l version are actually indistinguishable, although the clip on the newer 625 lumen version may be more flimsy.
so you have an old version of the cree cr6 light, but it may be functionally very close (or perhaps slightly better) than the new one.
Ok, thanks. Maybe I will just keep them then. Our kitchen where the lights are going is just under 200 sq feet and I planned on having 8 or 9 recessed lights plus 2 or 3 island pendants, plus under cabinet lighting. So should be plenty, right?
That older one has better installation clips/arms, and a better heat sink. Side by side, I could not see any difference in brightness or color or dimming. Maybe the new ones are brighter, or maybe the old ones were typically that bright too by the time mine were made.
Could someone tell me how many CR6 lights I need for this kitchen? I was planning to use 5 along the counter and one at lower left but reading above I am wondering if I need more.
Room actually extends 4' beyond the bottom of drawing where there's a table. There are currently two surface mount ceiling fixtures, one in front of the sink that I plan to remove and one over the table that I plan to keep. Thanks very much.

VENUE: Lord Fanch Presents:
Scorpion Child, Mother Meat, Lobby Boxer, Dibiase, White Fire, Death Horse, Lobby Boxer
3108 Locust St.
St. Louis, MO, 63103
Doors 7:00 PM / Show 8:00 PM
This event is all ages
Trends in music are cyclical. Every few years something comes along that borrows just enough from the past to make the new exciting again. Scorpion Child produce a sound that hearkens back to when guitar rock ruled the airwaves and made going to a concert the ultimate main event. The five-piece hail from Austin, Texas where they've spent the last few years perfecting both their songwriting and stage presence. The outfit features Chris Cowart and Tom Frank layering high-energy twin-guitars over the band's pounding rhythms discharged by Shaun Avants (bass) and Shawn Alvear (drums). Last but not least, Scorpion Child's singer, Aryn Jonathan Black, fronts the cavalry with a siren-like voice reminiscent of Ronnie James Dio and Robert Plant.
Black says, "I've always wanted to hear new musical ingredients within a classic heavy sound, and it's great to witness captivating performances where both the live show and the band's recorded material can compliment one another. It's important for us to maintain spontaneity while putting a special emphasis into integral hooks. The heavy-prog sounds of Uriah Heep, Hairy Chapter, and the epic delivery of early Rainbow showcases these crossovers brilliantly, giving us honest, yet relentless sonics."
On June 6th, 2013, Scorpion Child will release the self-titled debut on Nuclear Blast Entertainment. The album was produced and arranged by Chris "Frenchie" Smith, who is known for his work with The Answer, Jet, And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead, Dax Riggs, and many others.
Scorpion Child's debut is a hybrid of eight, hook-filled heavy-psych classics that breathe new life into a stale hard rock market. Big drums, thunder heavy riffs, licks, dangerous soul ridden bass lines, and powerful rock vocals transferred flawlessly to their recordings, conveying the sexiness that they move and shake to on stage. The band plan to support the May album release with tours in the United States and Europe throughout the year 2013.
Dibiase is a four-piece instrumental phenomenon hailing from Collinsville, IL (which is a small traverse east of St. Louis). While there are many elements to their sound; precision riffing, drones, loops and noise, subtle (and not so subtle) dynamic and rhythmic shifts, the band's signature is most often found in cascading waves of rumbling down tuned open chords
White Fire
This band was formed after Nate (ex In Transit) emailed Spencer (of Cathedral Fever) and asked if he wanted to jam. They did and after a couple practices had a few songs done. Derek (also of Cathedral Fever) came in on bass to round out the trio and White Fire became a real boy.

I write a program wich download web pages. It works fine for most of web pages but i have found some pages where it doesn't work.
These pages contains 0x00 characters.
I'm able to read page content until this character, but not the content after.
I use this part of code to read the response :
IAsyncResult ar = null;
HttpWebResponse resp = null;
Stream responseStream = null;
String content = null;
resp = (HttpWebResponse)req.EndGetResponse(ar);
responseStream = resp.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.UTF8);
content = sr.ReadToEnd();
In this example i use asynchronous request, but i try with synchronous one and i have the same probleme.
I also try this with the same result :
HttpWebResponse resp = null;
Stream responseStream = null;
String content = new String();
responseStream = resp.GetResponseStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
int bytesRead = 1;
while (bytesRead > 0)
bytesRead = responseStream.Read(buffer, 0, 4096);
content += Encoding.UTF8.GetString(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
for example, the problem occurs for this url http://www.daz3d.com/i/search/searchsub?sstring=ps%5Ftx1662b&%5Fm=dps%5Ftx1662b
