Eventhough it looks way to small to actually stay... Seems like it would be an amazing place to dive! Are those sharks? I think they're the 3 dolphins that seem to keep sneaking their way into the pieces, along with the 3 wolves in children of the night & Song of the sky and the combo with yuletide |

This is in my top five favorites. I think the little details are what does it for me-- the ocean floor, the sharks. My co-workers ask me if this is a photograph all the time. |

Definitely one of my favorites! I also like it during the winter months as it seems to have an uplifting effect on me. |

This image was an instant favorite. I usually keep your latest non-abstract image as my desktop image and I sadden to take this one off because it was so classic and serence. It was a bonus when you added the detail later. |

Yes, it is a very bright, "happy" image. I put this one up during the long cold winter months! |

One of my favorite pieces of art ever! The concentrated areas of vibrant green among the blue sea provides a focus for the cause of relaxation. Every time this wallpaper comes up on my rotation, I have to minimoze all my windows and simply enjoy this masterpiece for several minutes. |

Security guard charged with making hoax bomb threats to secaucus, new jersey nBA office
July 30, 2010 |
NEWARK, N.J. – A private security guard contracted by the National Basketball Association (NBA) is expected to appear today in Newark federal court after being federally charged with making several hoax bomb threats to a Secaucus, New Jersey NBA Properties office, United States Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.
José Quesada, 19, of Elizabeth, New Jersey, is charged by Complaint with willfully providing false information indicating that malicious damage of a building or vehicle would take place. The defendant, hired to provide office security for the building, surrendered this afternoon to federal agents.
According to the Complaint filed in Newark federal court:
Quesada made several calls to the NBA office from his cell phone over a three-day period beginning July 26, 2010, leaving multiple voicemail messages saying that he was going to blow up the building and kill people. In one July 26 call, Quesada stated: ". . . I put a bomb outside. . . Gonna kill all the NBA. . . . There's a bomb outside the complex in the parking lot. I put a bomb outside in the bush. No way out. Gonna blow up at 9:00 o'clock in the morning. Good luck. . . If you come out, it will blow up . . . "
Due to Quesada's actions, the building was evacuated while law enforcement and K-9 units searched the area for hours. No explosive devices were discovered. Additional security measures were put in place following the threats.
If convicted of the charge, Quesada faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
U.S. Attorney Fishman said, "A bomb threat is not a prank, it is a federal crime. There is nothing amusing about scaring people and wasting the valuable time and resources of those responsible for keeping us safe."
Fishman credited special agents with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Michael B. Ward, the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness, and the Secaucus Police Department with the investigation. He also praised the Hudson County and Secaucus Offices of Emergency Management for their response to the threat.
The charge and allegations contained in the Complaint are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced that federal disaster aid has been made available to the State of New Jersey.
FEMA is now accepting applications from residents and business owners who sustained losses in Atlantic County, Cape May County, Essex County, Hudson County, Middlesex County, Monmouth County, Ocean County and Union County.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Memorial Day is here, signaling the start of the trio of summer holidays: Memorial Day, July Fourth and Labor Day.
I refer to Memorial Day as the one without fireworks. However, it isn't without picnics, family reunions, outdoor sports and other gatherings, and we're always looking for potluck-style food.
Potato salad securely has a place at the head of the table, no matter the occasion. While sweet potatoes are the starch of choice because of the low impact upon blood sugars and a tasty way to get something sweet, the good old regular standard Idaho spud can still be enjoyed. A half-cup serving of a light-ingredient salad is generally a good rule of thumb to maintain.
No two potato salads are ever alike, as each family has their own preferences -- thumbs up or down to additions of olives, sweet or dill pickles, chunky onion, bell peppers and even cucumbers. (That one came about from a friend and neighbor of ours when we lived in Pittsburgh; first time I ever experienced cucumbers in potato salad.) But when you think of it, what's so odd about that? A cuke's just a pickle waiting to happen.
We've found this simple (nonpickled) dill dish appealing to everyone where the more quirky-ingredient toss-ins have failed. Keep it in mind this summer as a side for grilled seafood.
Dill Potato Salad
Makes 8 (1/2-cup) servings.
6 cups quartered red, Yukon gold or russet potatoes (cut russet into bite-size chunks)
1 cup light mayonnaise
3 to 4 tablespoons skim milk

Provo • Tyler Haws scored 37 points and Brandon Davies added 22 points and nine rebounds, but the BYU Cougars have come to expect those kind of numbers from their two best players this up-and-down season.
The real reason BYU fought its way past Washington 90-79 on Tuesday night in a National Invitation Tournament first-round game in front of a disappointing crowd of 7,511 at the Marriott Center was the play of sophomore point guard Matt Carlino.
Storylines BYU moves on
IN SHORT » Matt Carlino's big second half powers BYU past Washington in an NIT first-round game.KEY MOMENT » Carlino has all nine of his assists in the second half after registering four turnovers and no assists in the first half.
KEY STAT » Tyler Haws scores 37 points, breaking the school NIT record of 28 set by Roland Minson in 1951.
Join the Discussion | |
Post a Comment |
All in the second half, pretty much.
Carlino's 18 points and nine assists in the last 16 minutes of the game — after a dreadful first half when he played just eight minutes, scored just two points and committed four turnovers with no assists — powered BYU (22-11) to at least one postseason win for the fourth straight season.
"I thought Carlino, in the second half, scoring 18 points, may have been the difference in getting them going," said Washington coach Lorenzo Romar, whose team fell to 18-16 and saw its bid for a second straight run to the NIT semifinals fall drastically short.
The Cougars will stay at home for their next game, against the winner of Wednesday's Tennessee-Mercer game, which BYU coach Dave Rose said he will obviously be watching with interest. But Rose wasn't sure when the second-round game will be played. It will likely be Friday or Saturday.
Rose does know that when the Cougars get contributions from their Big Three — Carlino, Haws and Davies combined to score 79 of the Cougars' 90 points, their most since a Feb. 2 win over Santa Clara (96-79) — they are difficult to beat, especially at home.
"The effort was as good for a whole game as we have had this season," Rose said.
Carlino was the catalyst, and said afterward that he started having fun in the second half, "playing free and loose" and gained confidence when some deep, Jimmerish 3-pointers started to fall.
"It was win or go home," Carlino said.

Romar said that along with Carlino, BYU's ability to get its transition game going in the second half was the difference. The Huskies expected that from BYU, but couldn't stop it.
"I am not going to say, 'They were who we thought they were,' " he said. "I'm not going to say that. ... But they were the team that we talked to our team about."
The Cougars had 12 fast-break points — 10 in the second half — and outrebounded the Huskies 43-34 despite not having the services of 22-game starter Josh Sharp, out with a strained Achilles tendon.
And Haws was sensational while posting his second-highest scoring total of the season and outdueling his boyhood teammate/foe, UW's C.J. Wilcox of Pleasant Grove (20 points on 7-of-18 shooting).
"Tyler Haws is an exceptional basketball player," Romar said. "We knew he could get out and run and was very good at it."
The Cougars led most of the first half, but a barrage of 3-pointers late in the period gave the Huskies a 35-33 lead at the break.
A 13-2 run after Washington's Shawn Kemp Jr. (15 points) scored on a putback gave the Cougars a cushion, and they stayed in front by three points or more the rest of the way. A 3-pointer by Carlino with 6:35 remaining snapped the Cougars out of a mild drought.
"I think the altitude really got to them," Carlino said. "They hit a wall, and we just kept running."

Really a lot of fun

Reviewer: Teri J
My 10 year old daughter bought this game with the steering wheel attachment for herself with some Birthday money. Everyone in the family has learned to play and loves the game, including my son who is not quite 4 years old. You can use it without the steering wheel attachment however, it is easier with an attachment. It is a challenging game, but win or lose very entertaining!

Reviewer: Beca C
My daughter rented this game once and loved it and so has been wanting it for a while. I finally got it for her and this one comes with a steering wheel that you pop your Wii remote easily into. It's been a big hit with her and her friends. The steering wheel makes it fun and a little different than a regular Wii game, and there are dozens of different race tracks to give variety. Kids can choose what character they want to be and have a few choices of vehicles. The more you play, certain things get unlocked. It's definitely been a big hit with everyone. I'm glad I got it.

Mario Kart Wii!
June 27, 2011
Reviewer: Rewdi
Pros: Extremely fun game. If you've ever played a previous Mario Kart and enjoyed it, buy this!
Cons: Some people have complained about being able to use the weapons (turtleshells, lightning bolts, etc.) as a way to make up for skill. If you want to play this as a Gran Tourismo game- sorry. It's only for a rollicking good time- NOT for someone wanting to be the next Jeff Gordon, Mario Andretti.
Other Thoughts: Haven't been able to play online yet. However have played single and multiplayer and myself (30yrs old) and daughter (7) both enjoy it- though she has a hard time keeping up.

Dwight Yoakam plays Horseshoe this weekend
Dwight Yoakam brings his "Guitars, Cadillacs and hillbilly music" to Horseshoe Casino & Hotel Tunica Saturday, February 5 at 8 p.m.
Few entertainers have attained the iconic status of Dwight Yoakam. Perhaps that is because so few have consistently and repeatedly met the high standard of excellence delivered by the Kentucky native no matter what his endeavor.
Much has been made that the Kentucky-born, Ohio-raised Yoakam was too country for Nashville when he first sought out his musical fortune in the mid-80s, but the truth is his music has always been too unique, too ruggedly individualistic to fit neatly into any one box. Like the icons he so admires --Elvis, Merle, Buck-- Yoakam is one of a kind. He has taken his influences and filtered them into his own potent blend of country and rock that honors his forbearers and yet creates something beautifully new. As Vanity Fair declared, "Yoakam strides the divide between rock's lust and country's lament.

The study's objective is to measure changes in human visual cortex organization that may arise as a result of injury to the visual pathways. Subjects with retinal or cortical injury will be studied and compared to appropriate controls. Functional magnetic resonance imaging methods are used to monitor cortical topography in time. The main aims of the study are to determine: 1) what are the patterns of cortical reorganization that are seen spontaneously after injury, and 2) whether rehabilitative training can promote adaptive reorganization enhancing recovery.

My job is to listen, and to encourage others to be excellent listeners. Listening means being open to hearing what people need and want, what works and what doesn't. Listening gives others, especially those who haven't been heard, a voice, and this is key to creating and maintaining a good verification system. Furthermore, as someone who has been committed to human rights since high school as a direct result of watching my mother take a stand for civil rights, I know that listening is the cornerstone of progress and change.
A verification system is a way to give voice to the people in cocoa-growing communities and it's one of the three core principles of the Cocoa Life program. A verification system is an external set of eyes and ears, both looking and listening, to make sure that the program is doing what it set out to do. It's similar to the model of verifying in the financial sector where books are kept and then auditors check those books. The big difference, however, is that money is quantitative and should be black and white, while human rights are qualitative and therefore not as clear-cut. Verification is how Mondelēz International ensures that the Cocoa Life program is actually supporting the people it's intended to help.
There are four key elements that create and maintain a strong verification system:
1. Clear Definitions
The most robust verification processes begin by clearly defining what the verifiers will be measuring.
2. Quality Team
It is critical to carefully select high quality verifiers including social scientists, statisticians and researchers (this is called evidence-based policy making) who make sure that the program is in keeping with the standard policies and procedures outlined by the Cocoa Life program.

Memories of my life as a Data Center Operator
I always enjoy reading E.G. Nadhan's blog posts, and his most recent one, "NASA's Transformation Journey to a mainframe-free landing" triggered a few sweet memories that I want to share to see if you can relate - although I might be dating myself with all this technological history!
But with age jokes aside, it can be fun going down memory lane. Do you remember punch cards and keypunch machines? How about card sorters or card duplicators? Or an IBM 360? If these words bring a smile to your face, you and I probably have a lot in common. If not, you might be too young to remember these technological marvels of the past. Either way, you can't deny the historical value of the technology that was. However, it can be pretty depressing though to realize that these computer hardware devices are now only housed in computer museums . Am I really that old – or has technology moved at the speed of light? I often wonder if my Smartphone has the computing power of the IBM 360?
The last line of the article Nadhan referenced in his post states "NASA's first IBM mainframe, a 360/91 Model, shipped to NASA in 1967."
My first "real" job after college was as a data center operator for a large company in Boise, ID. (Think trees). It was SO impressive and fun! I still remember the ride down the elevator to the basement, going through the locked doors into a maze of equipment that I operated on my own during long, 12 hour weekend shifts. Of course the fun sometimes stopped when a program crashed. However, I still remember the thrill of getting a tape to spin onto a tape drive on the first try. It was like magic!
I feel that I have more of a true appreciation for the newest technology since I know where it began. My father was a meteorologist, and I grew up in the world of telex machines – so the IBM 360 was a wonder to behold.
What memories do you have of technology days gone by? Share your experiences with me by adding a comment about your favorite (or least favorite) memory.

Thank you for the kind words, Judy. Really like the way you have personalized the event I discussed in my post. Takes me back a few decades to my college days when I had to prepare punch cards to program in FORTRAN IV to calculate a math problem on the Burroughs 6700 mainframe -- for those born in the late seventies, that would be a Unisys. We had to be really careful in punching the right holes and sequencing them -- otherwise we would get an error back from the gigantic contraption referred to as The Computer. At the same time, our professor would have a black and white terminal where he was the only one with the privilege to actually key in the text on the terminal without having to go through the punch-card decks. Really doubt if the Transformation GPS for my alma mater would have shown a network of mobile devices in the cloud with a new generation of youth doing a lot more typing than talking. It has indeed been a long journey.

I started working for HP as a field engineer in SoCal in 1983. Back then, one of the bigger disk drives we had was a whopping 125MB and was about the size of a dishwasher. It's amazing to me to think today you wouldn't carry 125MB in your pocket because it's too small for most of our needs for personal storage (like on a thumb drive). The pace of change has been amazing to watch. BTW, I blog about storage at www.hp.com/storage/blog and since I'm in Boise, I know who you used to work for!

I certainly remember punched cards. When I started in Computer Operations in 1979 we still got punch cards delivered every day to load up for batch work. Usually got 2-3 full boxes of cards (that's about 1000 cards per box). We also got piles of 1/2 inch tape to load up whenever the punch card jobs had a tape card in them.
All IBM JCL as we used Data 100 TSO terminals into a remote IBM 3033 mainframe. We also, for a very short time, had (I think) and IBM 380Z onsite but that went a few months after I started.
What fun it was in the small hours to be punching up a restore job onto card and running it. I got quite good at reading what one on punch cards though!

Alas, the days of running my WATFIV jcl deck through the compiler at the end of the (university) quarter crunch time only to drop my 300 cards (deck) on the floor and trying to get it back in order! Is it just me that it seems with the Cloud technology it appears much like the days of computer "time-sharing" and limited function terminals? We have come full circle.

Melissa's notes for this recipe:
Who doesn't love a gooey butter cake? The variations and flavor combinations are endless. I came up with this version using some of my family's favorite sweet indulgences! It's an original creation that's sure to please! [See Cook's note on the bottom of the original recipe for further information about ingredients.]

Wow, what a cake! We fell in love with this recipe at first bite. The Crew and I prepared this cake once using caramel cake mix and once using a butter cake mix. Happily, it turned out wonderfully both ways.
NOTE: A funny thing happened while I was preparing to take this cake's picture... I got the plate all fixed for the photo, then suddenly reached in the drawer for a fork and took a bite!! Proceed with caution - It's that darn irresistible.
NOTE: A funny thing happened while I was preparing to take this cake's picture... I got the plate all fixed for the photo, then suddenly reached in the drawer for a fork and took a bite!! Proceed with caution - It's that darn irresistible.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13x9 inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. Toast the almonds at 350 degrees for 8 minutes or until golden. Set aside to cool.
In a mixing bowl mix together the cake mix, one stick of melted butter and one egg until combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. On top of the crust sprinkle the mini chocolate chips, toffee bits and toasted almonds.
In the same mixing bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese and the Dulce de Leche until combined.
Beat in the remaining 3 eggs, vanilla, powdered sugar and melted butter. Whip on medium high speed so that all of the ingredients come together nicely. Pour the filling over the crust and place into the oven.
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. When you remove it from the oven, the cake will still appear a little "jiggly." This means you did a great job not over baking the cake!
GLAZE: Melt 1/2 cup of additional chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of heavy cream in the microwave. Stir until completely smooth then drizzle over the cake before serving.
Allow the cake to cool to room temperature then drizzle with chocolate glaze and sprinkle with toffee bits. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

Hey Melissa, I am having no luck locating a Carmel Cake mix. I have been to 5 different grocery stores in my area. Can you recommend an alternative?

Hi Rose, It is sometimes hard to come by...a yellow cake mix will work and the cake will still be delicious! Enjoy!

Concealed Carry
I debated where to put this item from today's Sierra Times and decided it needed wide coverage. We can move it later to Centre Fire Pistols, if desired.
I felt it presented some good material for all to see.
How to carry a concealed handgun
Carl F. Worden
Ladies & gentlemen:
One of the most prevalent questions I get regarding personal self-defense does not come from my Internet audience, but from individuals I meet in person on the street and in the meeting places. That question is, How do I carry my concealed gun? What they are really asking is two-fold: How do I carry my concealed handgun so that it really is concealed; and how do I do it comfortably for everyday use?
After 42 years of legally packing a handgun on my person, I think I qualify to answer that question.
My first concealed handgun was a Browning 9mm Hi-power, which was about as easy to conceal as a large zit on a pretty face. It had a magnificent capacity of 15 rounds in the magazine, and a long barrel and sight plane to be accurate out to 50 yards. As a concealed gun, it was worthless whenever I had to be scantily, summer-time clad. In terms of width and notice-ability, it was bigger than a full sized 1911 .45 automatic and equally attention-getting.
The whole purpose of concealed carry is to walk around in public as if you were not armed at all even if you are wearing nothing more than a pair of shorts and a muscle-type no-sleeve T-shirt. Yes, it can easily be done with the right gun and holster.
My next choice of concealed handgun was a German-made Walther PPK/s in .380 caliber. Those German-manufactured guns were extremely well-made and totally reliable as long as you kept them super-clean. But the .380 round is known as a semi-mouse gun that lacks the stopping power needed to completely disorient an assailant at a time when s/he is intent on killing you or someone you are trying to protect.
So what I concluded is this: The concealed gun must be large enough to be fired accurately in the hands of the person carrying it, small enough to escape detection even in the summer months, and a caliber that will reliably stop an assailant from killing you or another innocent person with the first shot that hits the center mass of the assailant.
The first line of defense is to have the gun at hand at all times and in all places, while at the same time not bringing attention to it. You must carry the weapon with the same routine as when you place your wallet in your back pocket or carry your purse: It goes with you everywhere you go, just like your drivers license or the keys to your car.
The very smallest caliber I recommend is the 9mm Parabellum, and the largest is the venerable .45 Colt Automatic Pistol round. In between are the snub-nosed revolver calibers like .38 Special and .357 Magnum, and the pistol (read semi-automatic handgun) calibers like the .357 SIG and the popular .40 many police officers carry.
Dont even think of loading your gun with cartridges and bullets in full metal jacket configuration or you could be very-very sorry at the time of greatest need. All of these calibers should be of commercial manufacture and in the version of hollow point or at the very least, soft point, to inflict the greatest possible stopping power with a single shot.
To decide which model of firearm to choose, start with how you intend to conceal your gun during the hot Summer months. When Winter comes, you can hide a watermelon under your coat with nobody knowing about it, but Summer clothing presents the greatest challenge to concealed carry, and I will herewith solve your dilemma.
First, you need a gun that is slim and not too long, and the choice is dictated by whether you are a man or woman.
For men who will likely carry the gun on their body, the gun should be no larger than the Glock model 19-23-32. The smaller 1911 .45s are a great choice for men because they are slim and pack one of the most devastating stopping-power rounds ever. The Glock is one of the most reliable handguns ever designed, but it has no traditional safety mechanism and is therefore not to be considered by women who are likely to carry the gun in their purse. For women, the Smith & Wesson Model 3913 Ladysmith in 9 mm is an excellent choice except for one thing: If the magazine on the Ladysmith gets popped loose in the womans purse, the gun wont fire the single round in the chamber. Other guns like the Astra-75 will still fire the single round in the barrel even if the magazine is loose.
So what about holsters for concealed carry? The most effective and comfortable holster for concealed carry in public also happens to be the least expensive. It is an elastic, wide belly-band that holds your weapon close to your body at the waist or small of the back. You can wear a skimpy black T-shirt or muscle shirt un-tucked or even tucked over a pair of short-shorts, and nobody including you, will be the wiser. It is so comfortable that you will forget you even have the gun on you at times. I know: I am undergoing physical therapy right now following knee surgery to replace my ACL ligament in my right knee, and the other day I accidentally freaked out the staff when I forgot it was there and removed my shirt to do my exercises at the facility.
In an emergency, you can reach under or pull up your tucked T-shirt with extreme speed and totally surprise an assailant who suddenly turns white when they realize they are looking down your barrel instead of you looking down theirs.
In Winter, I often carry my Glock 32 in .357 SIG on my hip or small of back under a jacket, or in a shoulder-holster rig under a short leather bomber-type jacket where I can present my weapon so fast no bad guy can see it coming in time to react. In Summer rig, it might take a bit longer to get to the gun, but in all cases, it beats leaving your weapon out in the car. The whole idea of effective concealed carry involves immediate access to an effective weapon, while making it nearly impossible for anyone but you to know the gun is there before they see it in your hand.
A few years ago, a student at Virginia Tech was punished for bringing a concealed gun into class, and the incident led to the college administration wanting to deny all students and faculty from being armed on campus, even though the State of Virginia has an excellent Shall Issue law that allows all law-abiding, eligible citizens of age to apply for and be issued a concealed gun permit.
I dont know how it was discovered that the student had a gun, but it was discovered and it should not have been. The student screwed up badly, and that incident probably had a great deal to do with the VT college administration wanting VT to be a Gun Free killing zone ripe for the likes of Mr. Cho to carry out his evil on 4/16/07.
One of the best summer-time rigs to wear is the Goodrich Photographers Vest over a black/dark muscle or T-shirt with short-shorts. The cotton vest wicks off moisture and heat, while letting the wearer conceal a hip or small-of-back nylon or Fobus-type thin plastic holster for the handgun that is immediately accessible in the shortest possible time. But if it is really hot, nothing beats that belly-band from Safari or other belly-band holster manufacturers under a dark-colored muscle or T-shirt, and it is so comfortable youll often forget it is there.
Super-small pistols and snub-nosed revolvers in adequate calibers are available from a large number of manufacturers, but if you have large hands like me, you will have two problems with those guns: The grips are so small that you might drop the gun in an emergency trying to access it, or you may not be able to shoot the gun accurately even if you can hold onto it. So the goal is to carry the smallest, thinnest gun you can accurately control upon presentation and firing, while being able to carry it 24/7/365 comfortably, and in a caliber capable of stopping a killer who will also likely be armed with a gun.
If you are a woman inclined to carry your concealed gun in a purse, get a special purse that has the gun compartment separate from where you carry all your other purse-stuff. You can carry a double-action automatic pistol with the hammer down and the safety off in such a purse the same way you can safely carry a 911-type Colt 45, but the biggest problem with purse-carry is a magazine that has come loose because the release button got pushed. You women need to embrace and learn how to carry your gun on your person and not in your purse while still being stylish, and it can be done if you just do a little thinking first.
Finally, I recommend that the magazine release on a semi-automatic pistol be filed down by a qualified gunsmith to reduce or eliminate the possibility the magazine release button will be accidentally engaged and disable your gun when you need it most. If you have a weapon capable of at least 6-8 shots, that is more than enough if you need to use the gun in a self-defense situation.
These recommendations are for citizens who have obtained concealed carry permits in their states. You people in California are totally screwed for the most part. But for you lucky ones who live in states like I do, where the governor and legislature trust you, keep this last recommendation in mind: If you are contacted by a law-enforcement officer of any kind, from traffic stop to whatever, and you are asked for your ID, present both your drivers license and your concealed carry permit to the officer at the same time. It is an act of extreme courtesy, and it tells your law enforcement contact that you are a law-abiding citizen with no criminal record.
I hope these tips will be of service to you and yours, and I welcome any additional recommendations any of you would like to add.

Re: Concealed Carry
My first concealed handgun was a Browning 9mm Hi-power, which was about as easy to conceal as a large zit on a pretty face.
Amen to that! I still carry my Hi-Power from time to time. Those times are known as "winter". In the summer, it's my Sig P230 filled with Hydra-Shoks.
(When I'm not carrying my Sig P200 Carry SAS, of course.)
Remember the good old days, when everything said "Made In Japan" on it?

AT&T set to launch BlackBerry Z10 on March 22
BlackBerry's Z10 smartphone will go on sale in the US on March 22 as the Canadian handset maker continues the rebuilding process. The phone will be available on AT&T first, although T-Mobile and Verizon are also expected to carry the device sometime this month according to unnamed sources as reported by Bloomberg.
To say that BlackBerry is counting on solid sales in the US would be an understatement as the region is responsible for roughly 20 percent of the company's revenue. Most would expect the phone to launch in the US first but that wasn't the case due to the fact that wireless carriers have longer testing period for phones than other countries. By the end of this week, the Z10 will have already debuted in 21 countries around the globe.
The handset received mostly favorable reviews among media when it was first unveiled. Unsurprisingly, AT&T, BlackBerry and Verizon were all mum when asked for comment. Sprint isn't planning to sell the Z10, instead opting to carry the Q10 later this year. Unlike the Z10, the Q10 features a physical keyboard similar to older models that were once popular among consumers.
When it finally arrives, we know the BlackBerry Z10 will sell for $199 with a two year service agreement through Verizon. Pricing from other carriers is unknown but we suspect they will be in line with Verizon's offerings to remain competitive.
Do you think the new wave of BlackBerry 10 smartphones have what it takes to propel the company into a major player in the wireless industry once again or is it a case of too little, too late?

"Do you think the new wave of BlackBerry 10 smartphones have what it takes to propel the company into a major player in the wireless industry once again or is it a case of too little, too late?"
Consumers can be fickle. We will know better once they start selling...
I don't see them usurping Samsung, Nokia and to an extent Apple any time soon but there's certainly a place for them. I hope they survive.
They really don't have a chance because the ugly truth is: they've learned nothing. Their response to the iPhone and Android domination? They made an OS that relies on Android developers porting their wares to an unproven platform. Yes, one could argue that the blackberry faithful (which really means the "keyboard and trackpad" power users) are still a substantial customer base. Pushmail, great battery life and straightforward operation have also been major selling points. Unfortunately the Q10 will debut without a trackpad, which means its useless to the hard-core BB crowd. A typical featurephone is now a better texting device than the OS 10 'berries. It also has a crippled implementation of ActiveSync which deletes messages from the server as soon as their deleted from your phone - there's no option to disable this. And since the default configuration doesn't use BIS there's no pushmail unless you actually use BES or Exchange, which means constant message checking, which means battery life no better than any other mobile device. Blackberry Inc has shot themselves in the head, not the foot. Sprint knows this full well, which is why their not even bothering with the Z10 and hoping they can sell a few Q10's to teen text-a-holics with poor motor control.

Ticklin' The Ol' Ivories Goin' To Pound-Town On The Pipes: Homemade PVC Pipe Organ
If you haven't seen this video already, it consists of a guy named Snubby J (not to be confused with Stumpy P) playing his homemade PVC pipe organ thingy (similar to the ones the Blue Man Group uses) for a college talent show. I can only assume floor-sitter Scowly McAngryface's talent is looking pissed all the time. Me? I used to take bong hits through my nose.
Songs are...-Office Theme Song (0:18)
-Linus and Lucy (0:38)
-Turkish March (1:13)
-Mario Brothers Theme (1:27)
-In the Hall of the Mountain King (1:54)
-Bad Romance (2:07)
-Viva La Vida (2:50)
-Like a Virgin (3:03)
-Crazy Train (3:23)
-Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (4:01)
-James Bond Theme (4:15)
-Pirates of the Caribbean Theme (4:35)
-The Final Countdown (featuring my friend, Quin) (4:56)
Good job Snubby, high-five. Haha -- too slow! CONSIDER YOURSELF EXTRA SNUBBED! And speaking of extra snubbing, I ran into a Hollywood starlet last night and the chick wouldn't even sign my hat. You wanna know what I did? Left without saying bye and got drunk somewhere else. Somebody's gonna be haunted for life!

With home decor, the items we use most every day, such as doors or chairs, often can be taken for granted. And so it is with lighting.
Illuminating our homes is a necessity. But there's more to lights than just function. Looks and feel also play integral roles.
"From an aesthetic point of view, lighting we like to equate to jewelry," said Paula Minton, general manager of Kentucky Lighting & Supply.
Minton and her staff ask customers about the style of the space.
"We want to know what are you feeling when you're in the room," she said. "We try to hone in on what we in the trade think of as masculine – clean, kind of boxy – and feminine – maybe more ornate with slimmer lines with a lot of high design."
There's an amazing array of types of lighting: table lamps, sconces, pendants and chandeliers, to name a few. To choose the best style for a room, it's best to think about how the lights will be used.
"There's some practical consideration like the amount of light you need for the task, the size of the room, what the use of the room is," said Minton. "Are there tasks carried out there, or are you interested in ambient light? Do you want the fixture to be a focal point or do you want it to disappear?"
It also pays to be conscience of energy use. The American Lighting Association, a trade group representing the lighting industry in the United States and Canada, offers energy-saving lighting tips from Joe Rey-Barreau. Rey-Barreau suggests replacing incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents. For an inviting glow, choose products labeled "residential color," "warm" or "soft white."
For an easy fix, retro-fit recessed lighting with LED fixtures.
"You just take off part of the existing fixture, and the replacement fixture fits into the old housing," says Rey-Barreau. "LED fixtures have a high initial cost, but the fixture will last literally the lifetime of the project."
