I'm so confused about the current season. It's been going on longer than any other season (I think, anyway). Is the new episode this week the beginning of the next season already or is this season being extended?
Season 23 will end on May 20th with "Lisa Goes Gaga."
Wow, that was one LONG season. With that said, there's still season 24 and 25, right?
Actually this season is scheduled to end with only 21 episodes in it, shorter than many including Season 22. Yes Season 24 and 25 are guaranteed. 24 should premiere in September.
EDIT: Actually forget that I just checked, it will have 22 episodes afterall, which is typical of the Jean Era.
Which episode is it where we see the sign in the Kwik-E Mart that says "Do not accept checks from these people: Homer Simpson, Homer J Simpson, Homor Simpson, Homer J Fong"
(I may be paraphrasing)
Season 24: Moonshine River: C | Treehouse of Horror XXIII: B- | Adventures in Baby-Getting: B+ | Gone Abie Gone: C+ | Penny-Wiseguys: D+ | A Tree Grows in Springfield: C- | The Day the Earth Stood Cool: B+ | To Cur With Love: B+ | Homer Goes to Prep School: C | A Test Before Trying: B- | The Changing of the Guardian: C+ | Love is a Many-Splintered Thing: C | Hardly Kirk-ing: B- | Gorgeous Grampa: B+ | Black-Eyed, Please: B- | Dark Knight Court: B- | What Animated Women Want: C | Pulpit Friction: B- | Whiskey Business: C | The Fabulous Faker Boy: C | The Saga of Carl: B- | Dangers on a Train: B+

Homer and Apu in season 5
Does anyone know the name of the song (or at least an instance of the song being used) that is generally played to indicate wealth and prosperity in The Simpsons? It is uptempo and played with a violin (or perhaps cello). I know this isn't a lot to go on, but I bet someone knows what I'm talking about.
Hammer with the wood. It's all good...IT'S ALL GOOD!
All right so I believe in "Some Enchanted Evening" that it was revealed that Marge was 34 years old....
However, in "Kill the Alligator and Run" we find out that Homer is 39...
yet, they graduated high school together.
Was Homer really held back 5 years??
It's just another of the many consistent storylines that evidence the writers outstanding devotion to continuity
Hi all! So I've been reading about this 4 act concept that apparently a lot of people hate that are in the new episodes? Can someone please tell me what season this concept was implemented in, whose idea it was, and just what exactly is supposed to happen in each of the four acts? Thank you!
It came in with Lisa the Drama Queen from Season 20 and then all the HD episodes onward. I believe a writer in an interview said FOX forced it on them. As to what happens in the 4 acts well I imagine the first and last are supposed to be similar to a 3 act episode with the middle 2 just splitting up the middle of the story. Just a guess on that one though...
It's strange because the show technically has always had three commercial breaks. There used to be a commercial right after the opening credits and couch gag, then two more throughout the run of the show. For some reason, that first commercial break got bumped up, splitting the episode into four acts and (usually) messing with the pacing. Maybe it's because less viewers caught the first commercial break after the credits?
The MacFarlane shows handle it differently--the third commercial break is right BEFORE the end credits. That combined with the semi-abrupt ending of some episodes sometimes makes me wonder if the show is actually over.
In the episode The Trouble with Trillions, Charlie says to Homer "Why stop there, Homer. My militia has a secret plan to beat up all sorts of government officials. That'll teach them to drag their feet on high definition TV!"
What does he mean by the high definition TV reference?
They hiding HD TV's!
This has to do with this website, not with the actual simpsons... What is up with threads being closed? I started a thread that I really enjoyed reading the comments to, and then it was closed! I think that Rango person did it! How did he do that and why are other people able to close MY threads? Shouldn't I have the power over that? Can anyone close a thread?
mods (blue/green stars) and admins (red stars) have the power to close threads in different forums. only the mod of the specific forum can close it, i believe.
usually threads are closed if the posts are continuously going off topic, or if the thread had been done before recently. as for your thread, i don't know which one you're talking about so i can't really say
according to the FAQ:
Admins- "They have complete control over the board-- they can edit profile features, change passwords, add/delete/change forums, etc.-- as well as global moderation power."
Mods- "They can moderate all of the forums (edit posts, delete posts, close threads, sticky threads, change thread titles).
no, you cannot close your own threads, unless you were a mod or admin. you can however request one of your threads to be closed, if you thought there was a good enough reason.
yea, the reason that was closed is more than likely because there have been so many threads about the simpsons' decline over the years.
ok i have a clarification question. in marge in chains, the cloud of osaka flu attacks people.
ok so then arnie pye throws up out of the helicopter. then otto goes for a tan.
***the shadow hitting otto is the puke right? or is it the osaka flu cloud?***

It is a jab at Fox News, it says to watch I think Hannity tonight at 8, who is a notorious Fox News guy like Bill O'Reilly...
what's the highest viewed episode in the show, and how many viewers did it have? I've read like 3-4 different answers on different sites.
also, how quick are episodes added online? now that i'm done with school i wanna watch the rest of the season. i especially wanna watch tonight's episode as soon as possible (but i will be working when it's on).
thanks in advance people

Hughs Net Questions
Ok guys my dad lives in Cheshire, OR which is a very small town out side of Eugene. We want to get internet but the dsl providers are about a mile away. So we have satellite TV and now we need satellite internet. My brother plays Xbox 360 online (MW and BO) and i use the internet for surfing.
Heres a few questions from my dad: Do we have to sign a contract? What plan should we get? $50 $70 $100? It will be used about 6-12 days a month. Is it fast enough to handle a laptop and Xbox at the same time? Any other options besides a cell phone hotspot (Service isnt very good) Thanks guys!!!! |

i used to have hughes net and i couldnt game online for the life of me..it was total lag so i switched to wilb blue and it was even worse..so i suffered through until lease was up and moved...only thing about farm living i hated

I used to install wildblue and hughes and im just going to say this if you have another option as far as dsl go with that. If not then hughes is better then wild blue. If your thinking about streaming anything think again its not going to happen with those two providers. I have heard about dish launching something called dishnet that has something to do with via sat and hughes. They claim speeds up to 10 mb check around for it.

you want that in alphabetical order on how many teenagers who weren't runners cared about Phidippides??? LOL!!!
I remember needing to know 26 miles for a test in 10th grade, long before I ever became a runner.
I used to have more than 10,000 posts.
I run to deal with injuries unseen while serving in the US Army. Instead of booze and drugs to deal with my pain I run and bike and strength train and run. Running is the next best medicine to laughing at romantic comedies. That's right I'm 53 year old male and I like romantic comedies! I would like to see all Disable Veterans who can run to run it works, its will make you feel better about you.
#17 & #18?? I have 3 pairs of shoes!! 2 of them reaching the 1000 mile mark!#9 & #10 Knees? What's that? Ah, these things down there... sorry, I always forget they exist.
#7 hitting stuff!!! LOL.#1 WHY? I have a better question to ask a non-runner: Why do you NOT run?
Turning 40 in 2 months, decided to do a marathon on the morning of my birthday. People keep asking why? I just say why not? I can always have a party, but can't always run another marathon while I'm in my 30's.
Welcome to the master's division. I'm pushing grandmaster's myself - still have 4 years though.
I run to keep my body and mind healthy. After a heartrending divorce, I became depressed. I found running the best antidote for mental health, strength and energy!
I have come to running relatively late, I'm 55 and I've only been running seriously for about 18 months. I'm training for my first half marathon and non-runners always ask me if running is doing damage to my body, especially my knees. I laughed hard about the knee pain questions because my knees hurt, but they hurt a lot less since I started running than they did before I started running. Non-runners just don't know what they're missing.
Except for the "how far is your marathon" question, I didn't think those were bad questions. I'd gladly answer any of them if asked by a nonrunner.
Specially "Are you fast?"... the perfect point to start bragging !
I hate it when people say "You need to stop running, you're losing too much weight"
"Running is going to destroy your knees"
Not really questions, but statements I guess.

Why do I run? Because it's cheaper than therapy.
Just one reason among too many to list.
I don't find many of these questions all that bad. I, as a runner, would ask other runners some of these questions. And I too don't know why I would expect running non-enthusiasts to know the distance of a marathon.
Directions. I smile should anyone mention running being bad for your knees - "Been running since 1973. You don't see any scares on my knees."

BECAUSE YOU HAD TO STUDY IT IN ANCIENT HISTORY IN HIGH SCHOOL. I've said it a bunch of times in this thread. Did anybody got to high school here?
graduated from high school with honors, and all that other meaningless fall-der-al that goes with High School.... Marathon, if it was taught, would have been as irrelevant to me then, as the thought of running 26.2 miles. Now if Phidippides had played 26 holes of GOLF, or marched 26.2 miles with a 250 piece marching band (and personally had played lead trumpet during the march), THEN you might have gotten my attention...
running??? that's what the track guys did...

Love the images! Great list. I've been asked a number of those.
I've interacted with some phenomenally brilliant individuals during my tenure at Columbia, but you must be in a league of your own to recall every detail of every subject you've ever studied in high school. Damn.
You probably shouldn't look down on people that aren't as intelligent and/or educated as yourself, though. It's very difficult for parents and teachers to actuate children, especially teenagers, into taking pride in earning laudable marks, let alone striving for valedictorian, so the average high school student usually grows up to be the average adult, knowledgeable in select areas: "For every man has business and desire, Such as it is."
I couldn't tell you if I were taught the distance of a marathon in school. However, I can tell you that I was specifically taught metalwork in school. I don't remember any of it.
I love the list--though I'd think many of them would be more or less annoying depending on how/who asked them. If someone who was just starting to run asked for tips about running in the cold or heat or rain that might be less annoying then a someone who implies you are crazy for running in the cold, heat or rain.
As for the winning--my sister did a 15k trail race the other weekend, and came in 2nd. My niece asked her if she won--and she said "I came in 2nd," and my niece looked very serious and said "so you didn't win then." She does not believe in 2nd place.
"Don't you get tired" Uh, yeah, but most non runners think when you get tired you're supposed to stop, I tell them run, get tired, and keep going, you may surprise yourself...
I've been asked the 'You run in the rain?' one. By a golfer who doesn't run, but does golf in the rain. Not sure why he was surprised. In fact, I ran in the rain this morning. The only thing I don't like about running in the rain is having rain drops hit me in the eyes. Don't like sweat running into my eyes, either. So I wear a cap. . . problem solved.
Upcoming: Bloomsday 12k
the marathon didn't become 26.2 miles until the london olympics. the modern marathon wasn't part of the originals. in fact the battle of marathon has nothing about 26.2, you've got marathon to sparta, and back, marathon to athens, and it all depends on if you find herodotus credible. either way, no 26.2, but they did give us NIKE!
I remember learning it was 26 miles. We didn't learn anything in kilometers. I thought the extra .2 was what was added in London (so the runners could pass the Queen or something).
it depends on which route he took. the high road is about 21, and lower road is closer to 25 with the higher road being a more likely choice due to the hostiles in plains.
I got into running as a freshman in HS. I was a swimmer soccer player baseball player. I played Baseball and ran spring track until I was a senior. Thats when running became #1 for me.
I met my wife in my senior yr. her junior yr. She came out for the spring team. I still remember wha tshe had on the 1st day I seen her in the hallway out side the gym doors. We've been married for 30 yrs now. She runs once in awhile, me still almost every day.
My father inlaw asks me about my knees at least once a month
I have guys at work who don't like to drive 26.2 miles.
I run because I love it, and I never wear ear phones. I get in touch with my surroundings. Trails are my favorite place to run. The animals are great to see. Once was watched by a snow owl . I had to stop when a white tailed deer was cornered between myself and a fisherman. The deer did a hop and leap to get past me. I had a squirrel run up my leg after my dog Cassie chased him towards me. She thought we were a team.
NO need for headsets.
I love this!!
My personal favorite, (which wasn't on the RW list), "Do you know it's not healthy to be so thin?"
Yeah. And the corollary "Are you OK? You look thinner than the last time I saw you."
I like to respond "Are you OK? You look even fatter than you did before."
(not really, but I'd like to)
Why do I run?
Because I still remember what I was before running.
I run because I go crazy if I don't.
Run to keep the uncomfortable gut from returning and more eating choices.
Always prayed for rain during summer runs or during intervals. Great memories from frigid, snowy, Sunday morning distance runs. To enter town on the end of a 10 mile jaunt with a group of five friends, each one with icicles clinging to eyelashes, beards, exposed strands of hair made us feel primitive and powerful. The feast that would follow well deserved.

I can't believe I grew this broccoli.
Wowzers; I've got a green thumb…
Who knew? There was a time in my life I couldn't even keep a hardy bamboo plant alive. Times have changed.
Thank you fertile Sonoma County soil; you do a body good.
Not having any real clue what I was doing, I planted a bunch of broccoli in late September. All of a sudden, I had a 'bumper' broccoli crop.
…It was time for some broccoli cheese soup.
This soup's gooey cheese goodness is a must on a crisp fall day. Serve this with a hunk of crusty sourdough bread and get to dunking!
And since this is wine country, a 'perfect pairing' with Sbragia's Dry Creek Sauvignon Blanc rounded out this delectable nush – beautifully.

SUNY president to recommend closure of Long Island hospital
Hospital staff, elected officials and community members rallied last month to try to save Long Island College Hospital. It was a fight they've waged before. But now, it appears likely that the 150-year-old Cobble Hill medical institution known as LICH will close for good. "It was my assessment that looking at Long Island College Hospital, that we were losing so much money that it was going to damage the system itself," said Dr. John Williams, president of SUNY Downstate. "So I had to make a very tough decision." "If you look at my budget, 75 percent of my budget goes to payroll and benefits," he said. "That means you operate a hospital on 25 percent. That's a very, very difficult thing to do."

Suggestions. Good luck.Hi! could you check my letter please???
thank you
Dear Sir/Madam,
I would likeThis to express my interest in studying at the University of York during the first semester of next year, as an Erasmus student.
I graduated (with what degree?) in Foreign Languages from the University of Bari on the 15th of March 2012.specificallyThe name of my course was "Linguistics and Didactics of Modern Languages". Currently, I am doing a postgraduate course in Modern Compared and Postcolonial Literatures a the University of Bologna and I like it very much.
As I have seen from your website, York is1stranked first in the UK and8theighth in the world in the Times Higher Education world rankings of universities less than 50 years old. For this reason, having the opportunity to studyfor a period of time toat your university would certainly contribute to my personal development, and an important step for a future career.
I have always been fascinated by the British culture. So it is not by chance that I chose English as my first language at University and I focused my knowledge on the Scottish culture for the dissertation of my undergraduate course.
My dream has always been to be a translator and for this reason, spending a period of time abroad is certanly a necessity if I want to see my dream come true. Moreover, the Erasmus program would give me the opportunityof experiencingto obtain an international education, something which I have neverlivedexperienced before.
I have already contacted you by email in order to get information about your courses, and I really appreciated your kindness and your quickness in [STRIKE]clarifying [/STRIKE eliminating ]my doubts and, above all, Ihave beenreallyhappyexcited to see that the coursesprovidedoffered byyour UniversityYork are perfectlycoherentcompatible with my objectives andwithmy degree.
I sincerely hope that my qualifications and personal experiences will meet your high standards and requirements.
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours Faithfully..

Tuna cans open with ease
Jealsa, the leading Mediterranean fish canner, is relaunching its oil-based tuna product using PeelSeam™ peelable ends.
The ends are supplied by Crown Food Europe, a business unit of Crown Holdings, Inc. The new metal cans address the growing demand for more convenient product access, offering enhanced packaging openability for consumers. Jealsa is incorporating Crown's PeelSeam™ peelable end on its 150mm x 65mm cans for the tuna product line it supplies to Mercadona, Spain's leading retailer, under the Mercadona's "Hacendado" brand. The decorated can also features a recloseable plastic lid to facilitate re-use. "Using Crown's peelable easy-to-open end has enabled us to offer a new level of convenience on larger can sizes, ideal for families, caterers and even hotels," said Carmen Calvo, a spokesperson from Jealsa. "Crown provided strategic guidance and support throughout the project to ensure smooth delivery to Mercadona." Crown's PeelSeam™ peelable ends consist of a thin flexible foil heat-sealed to a rigid steel ring for conventional double seaming onto standard containers. No adjustment to tooling or seaming processes is required. The end enables consumers to open the metal package smoothly, easily and safely, crucial in an industry where convenience is key.
The latest family of PeelSeam™ peelable ends - now including 65mm (211), 73mm (300), 83mm (307), 99mm (401), 150mm (600) diameters and also rectangular ends - is compatible with Crown's steel and aluminum stylish bowl-shaped cans, standard three-piece cans with volumes up to 2kg, as well as non-round cans. The ends are suitable for both processed foods such as fish, ready meals, vegetables or desserts and non-processed dry foods such as milk and coffee powder. Comments(0)

MANCHESTER, ENGLAND — Crowd disorder marred the Premier League's Manchester derby on Sunday, with United defender Rio Ferdinand injured after being struck by a coin and police arresting a spectator for racist chanting.
In a volatile end to the match at City's Etihad Stadium where Robin Van Persie clinched a 3-2 win for United, Ferdinand was left bleeding from a cut above his left eye after being struck by an object.
"Whoever threw that coin, what a shot!" Ferdinand wrote on Twitter, making light of the incident.
City said the club will assist the police with its investigation into "the throwing of missiles" and trouble between both sets of fans.
"Manchester City wishes to offer its sincere apologies to Rio Ferdinand," City said in a statement. "The club unreservedly condemns the actions which led to his being injured."
A City fan also ran toward Ferdinand, but fell and was then obstructed by City goalkeeper Joe Hart, who pushed him away. The supporter was led away from the pitch by stewards.
"Respect to Joe Hart for protecting that idiot who ran on!! Love the banter between fans but there is a point when it goes too far...calm it!" Ferdinand added on Twitter.
Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney was also a target for projectiles when he went to take a corner, holding up an object that had landed near him.
City said it will supply video footage and eyewitness accounts to officers to help identify the perpetrators, and then "apply its own disciplinary policies for any fans found guilty of offences."
The English Football Association launched its own investigation into the attack on Ferdinand, and called for the guilty fans to be banned from football for life.
"It is simply unacceptable that any player is exposed to injury in this way," the FA said in a statement. "To witness Rio Ferdinand leaving the field with a cut above his eye to receive treatment is appalling.
"Football in this country has made great progress over recent decades. However, we must maintain the safety and security inside of our stadia and to do this we need to isolate and identify any individuals guilty of offences with strong penalties to act as a deterrent to others."
The Greater Manchester Police Twitter feed later received notification of racist comments directed at Ferdinand on the social networking site.
"Thank you to everyone reporting racist tweets," the force tweeted. "We are aware and are investigating."
Police are also investigating chants during the game after announcing that a man was "arrested inside stadium on suspicion of committing a racially aggravated public order offence after officers hear racist chanting."
Man City said it wasn't aware who the fan supported.
The alleged racism happened a day after a Swansea supporter was arrested at another topflight game for supposedly making a racist gesture toward Norwich defender Sebastien Bassong. The fan was released on police bail on Sunday pending further inquiries.

I just received a letter from the Baltimore Food Co-op announcing the store's closure.
Written by Mary Cox, the co-op's board of director president, it reads:
"It is with deep regret that I must inform you that the Baltimore Food Co-op has closed. I know I was not alone in having a dream of a vibrant food co-op owned by and serving the people of Baltimore. Many of us worked hard to achieve that dream, but unfortunately the co-op was not able to succeed financially. Thank you for your patronage, support, membership and faith during the past year."
This is sad news. There was so much excitement when the co-op opened in the former Mill Valley General Store last summer.

World War One Memorial should belong to D.C., District residents say
The National Mall is home to a memorial honoring the veterans of the Vietnam War, the Korean War and World War Two.
Monday marks the eve of a Congressional hearing aimed at creating a space for veterans of the first World War to be honored. D.C. veterans and residents on Monday joined Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton and D.C. Mayor Vincent C. Gray to oppose H.R. 938, which would re-dedicate the D.C. War Memorial as a national World War I memorial, nationalizing the city's landmark. The House Committee on Natural Resources Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests, and Public Lands will hold a hearing on this bill on Tuesday.
"District of Columbia Mall belongs to the People of the District of Columbia," Norton said.
The memorial, which was constructed in 1931, was overlooked for decades. The World War One Memorial Foundation says it's pushing to nationalize the memorial with the hope that more people will visit it. But, they argue, politics have gotten in the way.
"As far as I can tell, some people tried to link this to the statehood and voting rights and the next thing we know the council and delegate Norton have withdrawn their support," said Edwin Fountain, who is the Foundation's Vice President.
Norton was an honorary trustee for the project and the D.C. Council in 2009 unanimously supported nationalizing the memorial, which was signed by then-chairman and current Mayor Vincent Gray.
"You can responsibly change your position. I cannot imagine just staying with a position simply because you took it in the first place. You learn more that's what people elected," Gray said.
They insist as they learned how D.C. residents raised money to build the memorial, they decided not to support nationalizing the memorial. Last year, Norton introduced a resolution to ensure that the D.C. War Memorial remains dedicated solely to D.C. residents who served in World War One, and to ensure a suitable, separate location be found for a memorial dedicated to all Americans who served in World War One.
The memorial was authorized by Congress and paid for completely by local residents exclusively to commemorate the more than 26,000 D.C. residents who served in World War I, including the 499 who died, more than the number who died from three states, whose names are engraved on the memorial.

Click the link below to become a fan of Flying K9s Herd Dog Rescue!
Please watch these great Animal Planet videos below to learn about the breed you are considering for adoption!
The following items are always in demand and can be used by Flying K9s Herd Dog Rescue:
We are also so limited on space that we cannot take in owner turn-ins, there are simply too many dogs on death row in need of our help. Please, please, spay and neuter your pets! Even if you have no intentions of breeding, accidents do happen. And the temptation to get puppies from your "special dog" is just too great. Spaying and neutering will NOT cause your dog to become lazy, overweight, dull; we all own competitive Disc Dogs, all neutered, who are as fit and fun and wild as they ever were! The health benefits of spay and neuter are also great and may help your pet live a long cancer-free life. There are so many wonderful dogs in shelters, so many that we are unable to help.
We conduct a phone interview/adoption application, home visit (when applicable), and vet references. A contract must be signed to finalize the adoption. Our adoption fee is between $150-$250 per dog, and covers all veterinary expenses, bail-out fees, travel expenses, and in some cases training.
Herding breeds are not for everyone, and almost always need a job to best utilize their minds and bodies! We want to make sure we find the best possible match for both you and our dogs. Interested in putting that high energy K9 to work? Check out this frisbee dog club, the Southern Ohio Flying K9s, for training tips and competition info!
Southern Ohio Flying K9s
Who We Are
Flying K9s Herd Dog Rescue is based in the Cincinnati - Dayton, OH and Indianapolis, IN areas and specializes in placing herding breeds, such as Australian Cattle Dogs, Border Collies, and Australian Shepherds, and mixes combining any of these 3 breeds.

temperament tested. We will not accept any aggressive dogs or dogs with serious behavioral issues. We are a small operation, and only take in 1-3 dogs at a time; they live in our homes with us and our own dogs, learning the basics of house life.
Adopting a friend
Adopting one of our dogs is a process; so be patient as we take the time to learn more about you, your family and home, and try to make the right match for our dogs. If you find a pup you are interested in, e-mail or call for more info!
Come Visit Us!

Getting sick of Arianny Celeste and Brittney Palmer yet? Neither are we. The two lovely UFC ring girls are gracing the pages of Maxim's December 2012 issue and we have the photos for you right here. The pictures started floating around at a very convenient time for UFC with their big PPV coming up this weekend. Georges St. Pierre is taking on Carlos Condit at UFC 154. It should be a good fight, but being completely honest, we're more excited to see Arianny and Brittney in action.
The world just isn't tiring of these two. With so many sexy ring girls in the world, it's really amazing that Brittney and Arianny have separated themselves from the pack. Check out the photos below and pick up the December 2012 issue of Maxim when it hits newstands for more on Arianny and Brittney.

This is a GREAT Group!! 2002 2500 "Commercial"
I came to you with a vehicle that they said needed a "new" trans, and I had it towed to a trusted trans shop, changed the battery with a 850CCA battery new, and presto... No Trans problem on my 2002 2500 that I bought from the State of NJ. You guys are amazing!!! just as you said it would.
The trans shop says the brakes need to be done, rusted rotos, etc, from sitting, which I guess makes sense, he is going to pull the rotors for me, so I can see them etc. He is saying $800 for AC Delco rotors, and Bendix pads, the setup he recommends does that make sense to you all here?
Thanks again...
Now onto fun stuff like stereo and seats once the brakes have been fixed stopping is good.

All I want is the Lakers to win the championship, I couldn't care less who gets the MVP.
I couldn't care less where we finish in the standings, I just want us to win the title
Lakers are KILLING the Spurs in the second half
up by 24! and we pulled away in the fourth with Kobe and Pau on the bench
NO stopping Lakers now....Blowing SA out by 20+....
One more win and Lakers wrap up the Western Conference, home court advantage throughout the playoffs and Kobe's first MVP
Lakers are #1 in the West
Who woulda thought this would happen this year after our tumultuous offseason
Oh well - first place won't mean squat if we **** it up in the playoffs
...and in the West this year, who knows what the hell will happen. All of these series should be fantastic to watch. I can't remember a time when I was this excited for playoff basketball. While the East has it's favorite(s), I really think the west is a tossup. I love the Lakers, but it wouldn't be a shock to see them lose in any round quite frankly.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - More than 1,000 visitors stopped by The Clay Center on Sunday afternoon to help mark a pair of important birthdays.
This year's Summer Fun Day, which invited the public to tour the exhibits and attractions free of charge, was part of the museum's 10th anniversary celebration and the 75th anniversary of one of its partners, The West Virginia Symphony Orchestra.
After making their way through the museum's galleries, taking in a film or planetarium show or participating in some hands-on activities visitors were invited to share a slice of a slice free birthday cake served up in the lobby.
Kelli Marakovits, marketing coordinator for the Clay Center, said with the children, the day's most popular attraction wasn't the cake, but the free red balloons being given away out front.
"Everyone seems to want one," she said. "They're a pretty big hit."
Leann Dickens, public relations specialist for the Clay Center, said the event was representative of the museum's mission to serve the public.
"This is a great celebration of providing cultural experiences to people of all ages, of all backgrounds, from all over the state," she said. "The Clay Center is a place where families learn together and where they play together."
For musically inclined visitors, the orchestra had a "musical petting zoo" set up. Anyone interested in getting their hands on a musical instrument could stop by their table and try one on for size.

Hillsborough County Commissioners will accelerate transit talks listen
03/20/13 Janelle IrwinWMNF Drive-Time News Wednesday | Listen to this entire show:
Hillsborough County Commissioners unanimously agreed to start planning how to improve transit during a meeting today in downtown. Despite more than a dozen speakers who were in favor of multi-modal transit, Commissioner Victor Crist said his vote doesn't necessarily mean he will support rail.
"I'm going to be judging them solely on the ROI – the return on investment. I'm going to be looking at whether or not it remained an objective process. I'm going to be scrutinizing it very closely from a fiscal conservative perspective.â€
The vote allows county staff to negotiate a contract with planners to facilitate workshops with the goal of coming up with a list of priorities. That could include improved bus service, road improvements or additional bike and pedestrian paths. But the possibility that strikes the most controversy is rail. During the morning's public comment session, five people spoke against the concept of rail including Karen Jaroch, a Hillsborough Area Transit Authority board member. They wore pinned on signs that said COST in bold red letters.
"We need to fix our deficient roads. We need to be smart about it with our transportation strategy as one that deals with movement of people and freight and it should not be one about development.â€
Thirteen people spoke in favor of at least talking about more transit options including rail. More were waiting, but the morning public comment was cut after 45 minutes. The pro-transit bunch was identified by blue stickers that said "try transit.†The group filled the entire back half of the board room. Tom Kennedy said he works for a large real estate company and countered the argument that expanded transit isn't cost effective.
"In terms of money, which I prefer to start with, I work with tech companies. One of the biggest problems tech companies have is attracting employees. Without employees they cannot expand and grow. This is really an issue about economic development. Transit helps attract workers.â€
Another supporter, Arnold Buckley, moved to Tampa with his wife after college to be near family. But he said it was hard to convince his wife to live in an area that didn't have wide transit options.
"Because, literally, there was no other transportation and it may sound odd, but having many choices improves quality of life. My wife couldn't even take it for a while and moved to Chicago simply because they had an effective transportation system.â€
Ken Roberts with the group Citizens Organized for Sound Transportation looked back to the failed 2010 transit referendum where voters rejected a penny sales tax that would have funded improvements. He said after that vote a survey was done.
"The citizens of the county cited transportation as an issue, but their top priority was roads and bridges. Rail as a solution was way down the list.â€
But the support for expanding transit discussions has garnered some bipartisan support in Hillsborough. Both the Tampa Bay Young Republicans and the Hillsborough County Young Democrats joined forces to urge the county commission to move toward multi-modal transportation. Anibal Cabrera is with the Young Republicans.
"It is uneconomical for me living in North Hillsborough County to even try to take a bus and go into the city center. It doesn't make any sense to me. I have to spend three to four hours just going transit when it takes me a half an hour just by car. I want to option. I'm a young professional. I choose to live in Tampa. I choose to work in Tampa. I want to raise my children; I want to raise my family in Tampa. But if we do not have the options in transportation, what is that giving me? I don't want more highways, that just breaks up neighborhoods. I don't want more buses, that just fills up the roads even more.â€
And Hillsborough County Commissioner Mark Sharpe, a Republican, brought the issue before the board. He said transportation has become one of the county's biggest problems.
"When the GPS group TomTom comes out and says we have the fifth worst congestion in North America – we can debate it and dispute it, but there it sits – the fifth worst. When Forbes magazine – I'm not talking about Bloomberg, the liberal who wants to take away your big Slurpee drink, but I'm talking about Forbes the conservative and their magazine says we're dead last – 60th out of 60 metros for commuters. That's a problem. We rank second worst for pedestrian fatalities and the safety of bicyclists.
Residents in Pinellas County will be faced with a decision on transit in 2014 when a penny sales tax referendum will be on their ballot. The Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority has already laid out a preliminary plan to use those funds if approved by voters that includes both expanded bus service and rail options that would connect St. Pete to Clearwater and possibly to Tampa.

Is getting the full Zuni set and the Manajuma set worth it? I would then get pickup radius on some armor instead of Thing of the deep. Thanks
Zuni and Manajuma Set
#2 11/12/2012 4:45:22 PMDepending on build. If your going bears build Id say get zuni 4 piece if not i'd say no. As for Manajuma, i dont like the set to be honest. Would rather have Thing of the Deep and a Echoing Fury or fast mainhandRollback Post to Revision RollBack
#3 11/13/2012 8:58:33 AMThe novelty 2 piece set bonus on mana's sucks. The radius is crap and with my gear it only ticked for about 3 K once every second, but you had to be pretty much right beside the mobs. I would honestly say stick with the carver if u can find a good one. but dont bother with the offhand.
Zuni 4 set is a must in my eyes.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -
#4 11/13/2012 9:43:27 AMI was going to get zuni 4 set, till I tested sacrifiec-pride. Its amazing spam like crazy, sacrifice dogs, get full mana, keep spamming if necesary. Also with pickup radius, dogs are always rdy to cast or maybe you could use circle of life. Test this setup before buying zuni.
Cya.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -
#5 11/13/2012 11:28:03 AMI had an almost perfect manajuma set and its really good. Its imo the best mainhand+offhand combo if you have pickupradius items.
The problem is that a good manajuma offhand costs you >500mill and its rarely even in the auctionhouse(you want avgdmg >290 and 10% crit). And for that price you can get a really top notch skorn and awesome pickupraidus items.
For zuniset it really depends on what build you are running. I think its a very good all-around set and specially cost effective for starting a wd.
If you want to run specific builds you have to replace some of the setitems :/ For example Acid-Cloud you may want an acid SOJ and the helm.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Run iTunes for all users on one PC (W7)
Hi, sorry if I'm asking in the wrong forum...
My one and main PC is currently set up for one user, and now the kids are getting older I'm planning on setting up different accounts for everyone. I would like to set up iTunes so that all users will have access to the same settings, etc. I don't want to go down the 'sharing' route as some of the functionality is lost, and was just hoping that a reinstall of iTunes will appear for everyone. Is this possible? Thanks :-) |

Think I've managed it, the library and settings are stored on a separate drive and I just pointed the new user account's iTunes settings on startup (of iTunes) to the library file that was stored there.
At least I think that's the way! |

Records indicate that officials could not conclusively determine the source of the ignition that led to the explosion.
But OSHA said Central Environmental used improper headlamps "for illumination during hours of darkness when checking brine tank levels." Nearby residents said the explosion that killed Hopkins occurred about 6:45 p.m. DEP inspectors arrived onsite about 8:45 a.m., records show.
OSHA also issued two "other than serious" citations that involved not having proper employee training on the use of fire extinguishers and having an electrical receptacle without a faceplate. Those carried no proposed penalties.
EQT calls itself "a major player in the Appalachian Basin," with more than 3.5 million acres of drilling rights in Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia.
Parkersburg-based Central Environmental says it is "a leading provider of a comprehensive suite of environmental, transportation, energy and industrial services," including the management of gas industry wastewater."
Between 2003 and 2011, the most recent figures available, at least 17 workers in West Virginia's oil and gas industry were killed on the job, according to an analysis by the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics.
