A room makeover done with exisiting pieces
When Adrienne Kessel, owner of Adrienne Kessel Interior Design, made over a room in her Port Jefferson Village home, the designer didn't have to go far for the furnishings. She used existing pieces from throughout her home to create the sitting room/library. "Whenever I work with a client, I encourage them to shop their home for pieces that can be repurposed in the new space," Kessel says.
Furnished mostly with itmes she inherited or found at garage sales and discount stores, Kessel reupholstered the sofa her mother left her and turned an old sewing machine case into a storage cabinet.
The room is small -- only 12 by 12 feet -- so she used furniture sparingly and kept an eye on scale.
"What people usually do in a small room is try to get as much seating as possible in it," Kessel says. "That just emphasizes the size of the room. Furniture of an appropriate size will make the room feel larger."
Total: $3,048 (Kessel's fee for a room like this would be $650 to $750). --SYLVIA E. KING-COHEN

- American Idol: Is This the Most Boring Group of Contestants Ever?
By Kat Giantis
For a guy who is supposed to be cozying up to Jennifer Aniston, Gerard Butler sure does get around.
Seems the Scottish star continues to explore his many romantic options, despite his flirty, if make-out-free, appearance at the Golden Globes with his "Bounty Hunter" co-star and their so-called "loving" looks while manning phones on Friday during the Hope for Haiti telethon.
RELATED: See what other stars took part in the Hope for Haiti telethon
On Sunday, Butler was photographed with his lips (and mitts) all over a woman he purportedly met while she was playing violin along the Venice Beach boardwalk.
According to shutterbugs on the scene, Gerry, decked out in unsightly camouflage shorts and accompanied by some pals, stopped to hear the musical lady do her thing. But instead of tossing the traditional tip of, say, a buck or two in her violin case, he ponied up his digits.
Then, perhaps feeling that this was a bit chintzy on his part, the actor also offered up a little something extra: his most suave, saliva-soaked moves, with snappers catching his hand wandering toward the lady's Lycra-encased derriere as they kissed and clinched on the sidewalk.
RELATED: See more photos of Gerard Butler
For Butler, it was just another fun-filled night on the town. The previous evening, he joined Jessica Simpson and a dozen or so pals for dinner at a Santa Monica steakhouse.
But like the duo's previous bread-breaking in New York last October, this get-together wasn't so much a date as a group outing arranged by mutual friends.
Besides, if the starlet was looking to jump back into the dating pool following her reportedly short-lived romance with Billy Corgan, chances are she would have worn something more flattering than acid-wash, ankle-length jeans forged in the darkest depths of the '80s (seriously, perm-topped babes in Whitesnake videos wouldn't be caught dead in those things).
Anyhoo, with Gerry's social life as active as it is, it's understandable that he sometimes has a night when he's off his game.
And that brings us to this little nugget from the New York Post, which claims Butler drew a blank when he encountered "One Tree Hill" starlet Sophia Bush a few days back at Los Angeles restaurant Ago.
"They had previously met, but Gerard seemed to have no idea who she was," relays a bystander. "He looked puzzled, and then said, 'Oh yes, you look completely different from when I last saw you. Have you changed your hair?'"
Nice recovery attempt, but Sophia's coif was the same as always, which makes us wonder what the odds are that he'd be able to pick his violinist pucker partner out of a lineup.

October 2001Temperature measurementby Ernest MagisonPhysical principles underlie the four common methodsIn a scientific laboratory, the objective of measurement may be accuracy, regardless of cost and time. This might be the case, for example, when determining the melting point of a new material. In industry, however, the usual objective is to find a way to measure temperature that yields the following:
For instance, several types of thermocouples may have similar accuracy and initial cost. The objective is to select the type with the greatest stability and longest life. The selection may depend on whether the atmosphere will corrode or poison the thermocouple. Or in glass forming, such as molding bottles, viscosity changes require readjustment of the bottle-making machine. Viscosity closely correlates with temperature, so the accuracy of the temperature measurement is critical. Because glass melts at temperatures too high for most metals to operate and because most materials would contaminate the glass, it is economically justifiable to specify platinum thermocouples in platinum-protecting tubes or sophisticated radiation thermometers. Most applications cannot justify such an investment. Touch it or feel it indirectlyAll temperature measurements are indirect. That is to say, the measurement is the measurement of volumetric expansion (liquid-filled thermometer), dimensional change (bimetallic thermometer), electromotive force (thermocouple), resistance (resistance temperature detector, or RTD), radiated energy (radiation thermometer), or some other characteristic of a material that varies predictably and reproducibly with temperature. However, in industrial process measurement and control, the concept of direct and indirect temperature measurement has a different meaning. A direct measurement is a measurement of the temperature of the product itself. An indirect measurement is a measurement of some other temperature from which one can infer the product temperature. An example of direct temperature measurement occurs when, as in roasting meat or making candy, it is possible to insert a thermometer directly into the product; insertion or immersion thermometers are often used. One uses an indirect measurement in baking bread because one controls the oven air temperature. It is not practical to insert a thermometer into the bread because the action adversely affects the quality of the bread. The nature of the process influences the selection of a temperature measurement technique. Is it necessary to measure product temperature, and is it possible to measure it? It is essential to understand the process and its characteristics before trying to determine which temperature measuring method to use. Industry leans toward big fourThermocouples, resistance thermometers, filled systems, and radiation pyrometers are the most commonly used temperature-measuring elements in industrial applications.
The Seebeck EMF develops when there are differences in temperature between junctions of dissimilar metals in the same circuit. Also known as the thermoelectric effect, German physicist J. T. Seebeck discovered the phenomenon in 1821. The Seebeck EMF depends on the characteristic of the thermocouple metals and the temperature difference between the measuring and cold junctions. A measurement indicates the temperature of the hot junction when one knows the cold junction temperature or when measuring circuitry compensates for cold junction temperature. The procedure for determining the temperature boils down to this procedure:
Resistance goes ohmsA resistance thermometer, to be a useful means to measure temperature, must have a predictable and stable relationship between resistance and temperature. For detectors to be as small as practicable, the specific resistance of the wire or the film must be relatively high so that measuring the resistance is easy. The change in resistance with temperature should also be high. The wire must be mechanically strong, and its resistance temperature characteristic should suffer from the strains that occur when winding the temperature-sensitive element. And, of course, there must be no change of phase or state over the desired range of temperature. Lastly, the material must be commercially available with a consistent temperature resistance relationship so that detector calibration is uniform from unit to unit.
A sheath, usually stainless steel or some other temperature- and corrosion-resistant material, always protects the resistance element from moisture and the environment. If a temperature measurement is to be made in a vessel with high internal pressure, in a pipe with high fluid velocity, or in the presence of corrosive liquids, the temperature probe may be further protected by insertion in a well or protecting tube of a design similar to those used for thermocouples. A circuit such as a Wheatstone bridge attaches to and measures the resistance of the detector. The resistance translates to a temperature. Legacy-filled systems declineA filled-system thermometer consists of four parts. A capillary tube connects a bulb containing a fluid that is sensitive to temperature changes to an element that is sensitive to pressure or volume changes. The pressure-sensitive or volume-sensitive element may be a Bourdon tube, a helix, a diaphragm, or bellows. The motion of the temperature- or volume-sensitive element couples mechanically to the indicating, recording, or controlling device. Thermocouples and RTDs are replacing filled systems in industrial process control applications. The low cost of electronic devices to read the output of thermocouples and RTDs and to indicate or control, together with the ability to locate the sensor independently of the receiving device, has made electronic means more attractive. However, filled systems are still common for temperature measurement and control in appliances and similar applications. In liquid-filled systems, the bulb, the capillary, and the Bourdon are completely full of liquid. A Class I system contains liquids other than mercury, and a Class V system contains mercury. Organic liquids in filled systems have volumetric coefficients of expansion about eight times that of mercury. Mercury-filled systems operate at much higher temperatures. Vapor-filled systems, Class II, contain a volatile liquid. Temperature change at the bulb changes the vapor pressure in the system, translating to motion by the Bourdon tube. Gas-filled systems operate on the principle of Charles Law: (Pressure) x (volume) = (temperature) x (the systems constant) whereby the temperature and temperature change cause a mechanical movement that translates to an indicator, recorder, or controller. Radiation thermometers/pyrometers measure the energy radiated from an object. The radiation thermometer can measure this radiation from a distance. There need be no contact between the thermometer and the object because, unlike thermocouples, RTDs, and filled-system bulbs, the radiation thermometer need not be at the same temperature as the object of interest. Every body radiates energy to its surroundings proportional to its absolute temperature. Although the emitted radiation of a body includes all wavelengths, the region in which the amount of radiation is significant to industrial temperature measurement extends from 0.3 micrometers (ìm) to about 20 ìm. From 0.4 ìm to 0.7 ìm is the visible region. Radiation at wavelengths longer than 0.7 ìm is in the infrared region, which humans cannot see. The radiation wavelength is sensed using a variety of detectors: simple optics, thermopile detectors, silicon cell detectors, tungsten filament, and others using varied radiation thermometer classes that are roughly categorized as broadband, band pass, narrowband, ratio, optical, and fiber optics. Radiation thermometers are suited especially to the measurement of moving objects or objects inside vacuum or pressure vessels. They are rugged and may be in service for decades but they require routine maintenance to keep the sighting path clear and optical elements clean. Unlike thermocouples and resistance thermometer, radiation thermometers have no industrywide calibration curves.

KMUD getting ready for new compost facilityOctober 25, 2012, 6:00 pm by Alexandria Randolph Kingsland Municipal Utilities District is preparing for the final walkthrough of the newly completed compost facility on Williamette in Kingsland. The KMUD Board of Directors discussed the completion and final plans of the new compost facility on Monday. The project was completed by Skyblue Utilities Inc. at an estimated cost of $475,000. The projected savings from the facility is between $45,000
and $50,000 every year, officials said. The facility is currently fully
operational, but will not have any material processed until the Spring of 2013.
The facility will use aerobic compost methods to convert solid waste into
useable compost mulch. For more on the story, see Friday's Highlander. |

Dragora Linux 2.0: 100% Free
Dragora, a Linux distro that uses exclusively free software, is available in version 2.0.
Even the embedded Linux-Libre kernel includes no elements that aren't explicitly under a free license. In the new Dragora release, the kernel is version 220.127.116.11.
The Argentine distro uses Runit for system startup. Clzip 1.0 and Lzip 1.0 help in Dragora 2.0 for a fast unpacking of the software package. The developers create the packages from scratch from the upstream sources. The GCC version used is 4.4.3 and OpenSSL is version 1.0.0. The new package also includes the Curl HTTP tool and the Expat parser to supplement Git version control.
The CD installation image for Dragora 2.0 is available for download on the primarily Spanish language homepage.
Think about Dragora
Independent, reliable, powerfull, simple, light, and fast linux.
The most important keypoint is "FROM SCATCH" (like embedded linux).
I hope Dragora will make SERVER edition.

Gator Bait: Dogs Bullpen Collapses Twice, As Gators Sweep Weekend Series
It appears that as the month of May has arrived, the Georgia Bulldogs have hit rock bottom. In what was arguably the biggest series of the season, UGA came up short, getting swept by who-else but the #17 Florida Gators (34-14, 16-8 SEC). After coming into the weekend up 1 game in the SEC East, the Dawgs (33-15,14-10) now trade the Gators by 2 games with just 6 conference games left in the year.
Losers of 6 straight, including another embarrassing loss to Jacksonville St. on Wednesday 16-8 ( a game in which they were up 8-7 until giving up NINE runs in the BOTTOM OF THE NINTH), and 8 out of their last 10 games overall, Georgia is playing their worst baseball of the season at the wrong time of the year with the SEC Tournament and the NCAA Tournament just around the corner.
It started on Friday/Saturday (the game got suspended due to weather on Friday night and the game was resumed on Saturday, after Saturday's initially scheduled game was completed) as UGA jumped out to an 8-0 lead after just 2 innings, before the bullpen blew an 8-6 lead in route to a 10-9 loss in 11 innings. On Saturday SP Alex McRee struggled, getting knocked out in the 5th inning and while Georgia made a valiant comeback down 7-3 their efforts were not good enough as Florida hung on to win 7-6.
Sunday's game, however, was arguably the most frustrating for the Dawg faithful. Despite two frustrating 1-run losses, a win yesterday would have pulled UGA even with Florida for the SEC East lead. With that in mind, UGA stormed out an early lead by scoring a run in both the first and second innings. In fact, heading into the 9th inning, the Dawgs led 7-4. Unfortunately, the bullpen imploded once again, giving up SIX runs in the Top of the 9th as the Dawgs went on to lose 10-8.
Early on this season the only noticeable chink in this team's armor was it's porous defensive play (with 63 errors in 48 games, UGA has committed the 2nd most errors in the SEC) and perhaps inexperience to a certain extent (e.g. with so many freshman playing significant roles on this team). Now, you can add the bullpen to that list. As the season has progressed, the pen has begun to come apart after starting so strong.
While senior Will Harvil (2.15 ERA in 37.2 IP this year) and junior closer Dean Weaver (2.32 ERA in 31 IP, including 9 saves) have been steady at the back-end of the bullpen, it's been the front-end of the pen (Fr Cecil Tanner 4.45 ERA in 28.1 IP, Fr Michael Palazzone 5.34 ERA in 30.1 IP, Jr Jeff Walters 4.64 ERA in 33 IP, Jr Steve Esmonde 4.95 ERA in 20 IP and Jr Justin Earls 9.27 ERA in 22.1 IP) that has faltered of late.
The good news is that the ship can be righted. With seven games left (3 against Vanderbilt (27-20, 10-13 in SEC), 1 against #10 Georgia Tech (31-11-1) at Turner Field and 3 @ South Carolina (30-18, 12-12 in SEC), along with the SEC tournament, the Dawgs still have a shot of hosting a NCAA Regional. However, the way things are currently going, that hope is quickly becoming an afterthought.

At the career and technical school, 98 percent of students who complete the program leave and move on to a school in their career field or have a job lined up, Erwin said.
Because of those numbers, Erwin said the school is working to explain the career center's program to students at an earlier age.
"We give tours in 8th and 10th grade and familiarize students with what happens," he said. "We're trying to come up with programs to target middle schoolers.
"At 17, I didn't know what I'd be doing, but it helped that I was exposed to a lot."
Kevin Roberts, who teaches automotive courses, said he's impressed so many of his students have gotten jobs at dealerships or small car shops while they're in school. But, he said, some students just take the class for general knowledge.
"About half of my morning class told me they're just doing this for themselves, so they don't have to pay someone $80 an hour to fix their vehicle," Roberts said.
Nick Kersey, 17, of Hurricane, said he started attending the school for the hands-on learning.
"After my class took a field trip here, I loved it and knew it was for me," he said, as he swept the floor of the school's car garage.
Kersey, who didn't know much about cars before he attended the school, now wants to attend the University of Western Ohio, a college level career and technical program, to study automotive repair.
"There's just more learning here," he said.

Cabinet of New Zealand
This article does not cite any references or sources. (October 2012) |
This article is part of a series on the politics and government of New Zealand |
Constitution |
Related topics
The Cabinet of New Zealand (in Māori: Te Rūnanga o te Kāwanatanga o Aotearoa) functions as the policy and decision-making body of the executive branch within the New Zealand government system. The Prime Minister and many Ministers of the Crown serve as members of the Cabinet.
All Cabinet ministers also serve as members of the Executive Council, which advises the Governor-General.
Legislative basis[edit]
No legislative act established the Cabinet: rather, it exists purely by constitutional convention. This convention carries sufficient weight for many official declarations and regulations to refer to the Cabinet, and a government department exists with responsibility for supporting it (the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet). Although Cabinet lacks any direct legislative framework for its existence, the Cabinet Manual has become the official document which governs its functions, and on which its convention rests.
The structure of Cabinet has as its basis the formal institution known as the Executive Council. Most Ministers hold membership of both bodies, but some Executive Councillors – known as "ministers outside Cabinet" – do not have Cabinet positions.
The convention of members of the Executive Council meeting separately from the Governor began during Edward Stafford's first tenure as Premier (1856–1861). Stafford, a long-time advocate of responsible government in New Zealand, believed the colonial government should have full control over all its affairs, without the intervention of the Governor. Because the Governor chaired the Executive Council, Stafford intentionally met with his ministers without the Governor present.
The lack of formal legislation establishing Cabinet leaves the powers of its members only loosely defined. However, convention regarding the Cabinet's authority has considerable force, and generally proves strong enough to bind its participants. Theoretically, each minister operates independently, having received a ministerial warrant over a certain field from the Crown (represented by the Governor-General). But the Governor-General can dismiss a minister at any time, conventionally on the advice of the Prime Minister, so ministers are largely obliged to work within a certain framework.
Cabinet itself acts as the accepted forum for establishing this framework. Ministers will jointly discuss the policy which the government as a whole will pursue, and ministers who do not exercise their respective powers in a manner compatible with Cabinet's decision risk losing those powers. This has become known as the doctrine of collective responsibility. Problems arise when the Prime Minister breaches collective responsibility. Since ministerial appointments and dismissals are in practice in the hands of the Prime Minister, the Cabinet can not directly initiate any action against a Prime Minister who openly disagrees with his government's policy. On the other hand, a Prime Minister who tries to act against concerted opposition from his Cabinet risks losing the confidence of his party colleagues. An example is former Prime Minister David Lange, who publicly spoke against a tax reform package which was sponsored by then-Finance Minister Roger Douglas and supported by Cabinet. Lange dismissed Douglas, but when the Cabinet supported Douglas against Lange, Lange himself resigned as Prime Minister.
Portfolios represented[edit]
Currently[update], significant ministers include:
Other ministers (some outside Cabinet) include:
- Minister for ACC
- Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage
- Attorney-General
- Minister for Biosecurity
- Minister for Building and Construction
- Minister for Climate Change Issues
- Minister of Corrections
- Minister of Defence
- Minister for Economic Development
- Minister of Education
- Minister of Energy and Resources
- Minister for the Environment
- Minister of Foreign Affairs
- Minister of Forestry
- Minister of Health
- Minister of Housing
- Minister for Infrastructure
- Minister of Justice
- Minister of Māori Affairs
- Minister of Police
- Minister for Primary Industries
- Minister of Railways
- Minister for Sport and Recreation
- Minister for State Owned Enterprises
- Minister of State Services
- Minister of Tourism
- Minister of Transport
- Minister for Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations
- Minister of Veterans' Affairs
Styles of address of members[edit]
This section requires expansion. (June 2008) |
All minister have the style of "The Honourable", except for the Prime Minister, who is styled "The Right Honourable".
A Cabinet Committee comprises a subset of the larger Cabinet, consisting of a number of ministers who have responsibility in related areas of policy. Cabinet Committees go into considerably more detail than can be achieved at regular Cabinet meetings, discussing issues which do not need the input of ministers holding unrelated portfolios.
Cabinet Committees will often discuss matters referred to them by Cabinet itself, and then report back the results of their deliberation. This can sometimes become a powerful tool for advancing certain policies, as was demonstrated in the Lange government. Roger Douglas, Minister of Finance, and his allies succeeded in dominating the finance committee, enabling them to determine what it recommended to Cabinet. The official recommendation of the finance committee was much harder for his opponents to fight than his individual claims in Cabinet would be. Douglas was able to pass measures that, had Cabinet deliberated on them itself rather than pass them to Committee, would have been defeated.
Currently[update] eight standing Cabinet Committees exist, of varying importance:
- Policy Committee
- Economic Development Committee
- Social Development Committee
- Legislation Committee
- Government Expenditure and Administration Committee
- Appointments and Honours Committee
- External Relations and Defence Committee
- Domestic and External Security Coordination Committee
Other Cabinet Committees may emerge on a temporary basis, with the purpose of investigating an issue of relevance at the time.

Former Security Gaurd Says Baptist South Safety Techniques Causing Injuries'A former security guard is speaking out about a Montgomery hospital's new security methods that require officers to use non-violent techniques against combative patients. He says it's putting officers' lives at risk. Baptist Health did release a statement: The safety and protection of our patients and employees is always our greatest concern. The security officers at Baptist Health are well-trained in and use techniques offered from CPI (Crisis Prevention Institute), the industry standard committed to best practices and safe behavior management methods that focus on prevention. These processes help promote the welfare and safety of our patients. We utilize De-escalation techniques for personal safety using nonviolent crisis intervention. We also use a team approach. When these techniques are used properly they work, but there is always a chance of injury in escalated situations on or off the job.
I'd encourage you to take a look at the CPI website for more information about how our security officers are trained:
The former security guard says the three years that he was there and could carry a taser and handcuffs, injuries were rare, and he only used his taser three times. He also says he knows of two officers who have had to undergo surgery after a patient hurt them. |

As a 26-year employee of Greer Industries, many people have asked me: Why is John Raese running again?
This is my answer: Raese is running for the U.S. Senate because he is deeply concerned about the direction in which our country is headed.
If you are an employed or unemployed coal miner, Raese is running for you because the future of West Virginia coal is in jeopardy.
Joe Manchin turned his back on W.Va. coal miners when he voted for Harry Reid as Senate majority leader.
John Raese would be West Virginia 's only "true friend of coal."
If you are a Bible-believing Christian, Raese is running for you. He will not turn his back on the sanctity of life once he gets to Washington like Joe Manchin did when he voted against de-funding Planned Parenthood, which supports abortions.
If you are a small business owner, Raese is running for you. He knows what it takes to run a successful business. His family-owned businesses have helped support our state financially since 1917.
When Joe Manchin voted not to extend the Bush tax cuts, he wasn't thinking of the incurred costs to West Virginia small business owners.
If you are a health care provider, John Raese is running for you. Congress will have the opportunity to repeal the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).

I finally got some good stick time with my SS and then popped my GoPro on. Then, I played around with Windows MovieMaker.... Here's the video. I made the super hi-tech gopro mount in 5 min.... Not too bad for my first video......
Aug 17, 2012, 08:48 PM | ||
Now I am not so sure since my SS V2 flew for over a year at 60mm and now it is better at 70mm. While I haven't got a good reason I did make a number of modifications to the fuse. This could have made the CG change but it should not have. I know that doesn't help you but I can only suggest you try balancing at a few different CG measurements and then perform a hand tossed glide to see if your plane performs properly. |

When do I get to fly the plane. Just got my Bix2 ready to fly (CG is 7/16" back of spec, etc,) I'm as ready as I'm going to get. Tomorrow only gliders can fly until 12:00. I'm going to take my Bix2 to the glider guys, i have a friend (highly respected) that might help me get this into the air. I'm not signed off on, my 'ticket is not punched' I can't fly on the tarmac because I haven't satisfied all doubts that I can fly this thing without hurting someone. I wouldn't have it any other way.

I was told that if the plane nose dived then the balance point or false CG was too far toward the tail making it nose heavy. If the plane suddenly rose then the balance point or false CG was too far toward the nose making it tail heavy. The proper balance point or true CG would make the plane glide further out and slowly down. |
Aug 17, 2012, 10:13 PM | ||
It could be the motor thrust angle is off and every time you power up you have ot correct. Or your control surfaces are way too extreme. Maybe reducing the travel distance or using a lower rate may help reducing control or over control. |

May You Get It All Just Right
The Holidays are upon us, and again this year, The Urban Man wants to send a personal greeting out to all his listeners.
Whether you're huddled with your iPod, or driving down the freeway hard, please imagine these words printed on a really clever card: You know, with some nondenominational or even deconstructionist artwork only hinting at whatever seasonal imagery most appeals to your personal background: a glowing menorah or snowy church...yard.
Anyway, here goes:
Just this once, just this year, may you get it all just right:
May you enter many a warm house from many a cold night,
Offering just the proper gifts and greetings at the door.
I mean, surely, you deserve to pull that off, and more.
May you remember to ask about all the kids in school;
May you shout out a toast without making yourself a fool;
May you avoid politics with friend Dave, and G-d with brother John,
While completely and entirely avoiding Cousin Ron.
May you nod at all the proper moments, exit chit-chat before you tire, and find your way, at least once, close enough to warm your hands at a genuine wood fire — even if you live in, like, some hyper-modern space with a severely minimalist fireplace.
In fact why shouldn't everything this year come together like a dance? You know, as if by chance all your friends and relatives had lined up for the Macarena... I mean who could blame yah for wanting that, or imagining for a moment that everyone you knew teamed up to fund not just parties and gifts, but a sort of complete holiday musical, staged with the help of a bang-up Broadway director? (After all, some of your friends do work in the financial sector.)
Okay, this director may not get the whole cast he'd like for this musical — I mean he's pretty much stuck with the same contract players as last year — but suppose he nevertheless manages to work with them, while keeping in mind their limitations and following all those non-negotiable union rules: You know, like Aunt Emily making you drive out to Ontario airport at some ungodly hour, or Uncle Ted forgetting to take a shower.
Suppose this Director nevertheless and miraculously succeeds in producing, somehow and against all odds, a show lavish and harmonious and well-conceived — even though it's really just a December mash-up, a kind of Rockettes hash-up of all the strange plays you've played in during your confused and unplotted life — including old college buddies and your hostile ex-wife;
Only this time the show is so effectively staged and orchestrated and with such exquisite complications of candles and twinkly lights and turkeys and witty conversation and colored foil that the critics, driving home afterward, wowed by the many sights and sounds and the one or two extra big and really expensive numbers, along with the free intermission drinks and hors d'ouevres, each turns to their spouses on lonely freeways late at night and says, "Damn, but wasn't that good? Wasn't that done just the way it should? Wasn't every line said exactly as Will Smith or Meryl Streep would? And hey, did you notice how our hero gracefully opened that second cappuccino-maker as if he'd never seen such a thing before?"
You deserve such praise, and more:
Not just the tinsel and the gelt, but the liquor and décor—
Especially after all your years of practice and prep,
After learning how to execute every step...
No kidding, it's completely possible that just this once, just this year, the whole month might really come together, and you'll awake rested and relaxed on New Year's Day, placing a call home to say, in tones both carefree and bright,
"Hey mom, I finally got it all just right."

How's it going everyone, Little bit long of a post but wanted to be very detailed, hope you all read it. Here's a team I have been working on for awhile. Quick brief of the ONLY rule I will be using with this team with is in a battle with no Legendaries. That is the only rule. Also a thing to note is I know my opponet will not be using any pokemon that does not appear in any game but Pokemon Gold. In addition since we have no one to trade with I know no one will be using Gengar, Machamp, Alakazam, etc. Weird rules I know but we both are still gonna have fun. Anyway with the team :) Starter: Spiker Forretress@Leftovers -Toxic -Spikes -Rapid Spin -Explosion I originally wanted Cloyster as my spiker yet I only have Pokemon Crystal. This means no way to chain breed rapid Spin on it. Therefore for my spiker went Forretress since it levels both. The explosion is that last ditch effort and toxic to status switchers etc. Skarmory@Leftovers -???? -Curse -Rest -Whirlwind For the most part a typical Skarmory. Curse was there instead of thief as I feel it will be more usefull. However here is my dillema. With only Pokemon crystal cant chainbreed the typical Whirlwind/Drill Peck set. Since I have a spiker I find WW much more needed. I am at a loss however with what to fill that extra spot with. Need help with this one Snorlax@Leftovers -Belly Drum -Lovely Kiss -Rest -Body Slam Typical BellyLax to me Miltank@Leftovers - Body Slam - Heal Bell - Milk Drink - Return Another typical wall set, not much to explain. Tyranitar@Leftovers -Surf -Pursuit -Roar -EQ I know tyranitar is a beast, yet never actually used him so this was new for me. Pursuit seems obvious and the roar is to capitlize on spikes/problems. Threw Surf in for that surprise move and the EQ for damage. Starmie@Leftovers -Rapid Spin -Recover -Thunder -Psychic Another spinner that I placed on the team over Heracross(even though I love the guy). Rapid Spin and recover standard with thunder or status and psychic move. Well thats the team. I really hope you all have some good insight for me as I really want to win this battle with my good friend. Appreciate all the help in advance, -Silverfox
Why do you have 2 Spinners? Why both Return and Body Slam on Miltank? And as Borat stated, it's easier to have a DP/WW Skarmory and a RS Cloyster rather than a LK Snorlax...
I think Fire Blast is better than surf on Tyranitar jsut to get rid of that annoying skarmory. Also, return and body slam is redundant on Miltank, replace either one of them for earthquake or shadow ball. THey can help get rid of ghost types like misdreveous and gengar. And why does Starmie have thunder(unless its for an electric type move as well as the high paralysis). Instead, take advantage of Starmie's powerful stabbed Surf, as it provides for neutral coverage than Psychic.
Thanks for the helpfull feedback so far, As for LS on Snorlax that was actually an oversight/typo. I'm used to seeing it so much wrote it down. Instead it would look for more like this: Snorlax@Leftovers -Belly Drum -Sleep Talk -Rest -Body Slam Starmie makes sense using Surf, yet since I do have 2 spinners would it be more usefull to get rid of Starmie completly? I was thinking either Exeggutor or Heracross in place. And I know Borat stats the DP/WW Skarmory alot and I do not disagree, but with only version crystal it is not possible. I can have it with WW but need something else to dill DP with
Use Cloyster, you don't need a spinner. Steel Wing is the only other option, unless you can find one with HP Flying. I'd forgo Skarmory for Steelix. Tyranitar shouldn't have EQ as a priority over Rock Slide, ever. Surf is no good, not without considering Crunch first. And you don't need Roar. And Belly Drum and Sleep Talk is probably the worst combination possible. Get rid of Starmie.

'Law & Order: SVU's' Raul Esparza: 'I have been part of critically acclaimed glories'
Raul Esparza, the latest ADA, Rafael Barba, on NBC's "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," has been a Broadway darling for a decade.
He not only escaped unscathed from "Taboo" but came away with one of his four Tony nominations. Considering that musical remains the butt of jokes, it's an indication of his talent. Usually Esparza walks onstage, and the audience starts clapping; once he performs, the reaction is justified.
Then there was "Leap of Faith," a splashy flop earlier this year, from which Esparza is still recovering.
"I have been part of some critically acclaimed glories," Esparza tells Zap2it. "I have been involved in ['Leap of Faith'] for five years and love the music very, very, very much, and the last thing I expected was it to fall apart.
"What Warren did was come in and work with me a little bit," he says of Warren Leight, the "SVU" show runner and a co-writer of "Leap of Faith." "It is a gift. I could not have told you at the time it was the best time to step away from a place where my heart was broken. It would be very hard to fall in love with the next musical right now.
"He offered me a safe place and to find the joy in the next workplace and to find the creative joy, and I wanted to really go for it and play," Esparza continues. "He has written a character. He is riffing on a lot of my strengths as an actor."
He praises star Mariska Hargitay for the set's welcoming tone, even to recurring characters such as his, who appears again on the Wednesday, Nov. 21, episode.
"I was able to transfer so much of my creative joy to that space," he says of the show. "And that has never happened to me on a TV set, ever."

Anyone dig Naruto? |
cusser | #2 Subject: Re:cartoon/Anime Posted: 05/05/2011 09:58:48 |
i've never had the chance to watch it. i believe it was on cartoon network at one point, but i'm not entirely sure. Robotech/Macross is still my fave. i got the original Macross, in a box set, for christmas. fans say it is much better than the american remake, but i wouldn't say it was all that different. Harmony gold did a great job. Phineas and ferb is funny |
kazekiri | #3 Subject: Re:cartoon/Anime Posted: 05/05/2011 12:23:35 |
I used to watch Robotech as a kid. I also had the box set, but I sold it later on. Its a great series indeed. My favorite childhood cartoon was Thundercats. It was Science fiction, action, adventure rolled into one cool story in every episode. Good stuff |
Wombie | #4 Subject: Re:cartoon/Anime Posted: 05/27/2011 06:07:02 |
I used to read the comics/watch the anime for Naruto, but they kinda dragged on too long, so I gave up.... I will always recommend Dragon ball(not Z though), One piece and Slam dunk to people. :) |

Nice read! looks like some more cool history with Minato to look foward to in the anime |
jgusw | #8 Subject: cartoon/Anime Posted: 06/09/2011 18:50:48 |
I'm growing to like Minato more & more. He's always doing or saying something cool. |
kazekiri | #9 Subject: cartoon/Anime Posted: 06/12/2011 00:47:49 |
how did you like the new episode? I felt like they should have made it longer- I hate those cliff hangers lol! |
jgusw | #10 Subject: cartoon/Anime Posted: 06/12/2011 09:29:07 |
Yeah. I do like when they go on & on with the backstory. How many times do we have watch scenes of Naruto and Sasuke fighting and hold hands or fingers? Another scene that like to do over & over is Itachi killing his clan. After seeing it the 10th time, they were just using that scene to fill in space. Hey, did you notice all the Naruto Shippuden episodes can be streamed on the 360 with HuluPlus? None of them are "web only" anymore. The quality isn't that great though and the video lags a bit behind the audio. The episodes are only a week behind the air date in Japan. If Hulu can fix the quality, I won't have to download episodes anymore. |
kazekiri | #11 Subject: Re:cartoon/Anime Posted: 06/16/2011 18:45:41 |
Yo... what was Kakashi ready to do to Madara? "that jutsu doesn't work on me" what jutsu does? lol! My wife and I just watch it on narutoget.com We used to watch it on crunchyroll.com in HD which was really nice, but after they wanted my money for the full version I said fuuuck that! |

I wonder whats going to happen with the crow he put in Naruto a while back... The anime is only a few steps away from Minato vs Madara- I feel a HUUUUGE tear jerker ep coming along when he dies with Kushina. I had no idea about the game you posted- its on the radar definately. |
jgusw | #19 Subject: cartoon/Anime Posted: 07/30/2011 16:02:12 |
I learned about Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations by accident. I was looking for another game and saw a video thumb sitting on the side of the screen that said, "Naruto vs Raikage". I got to get that game. I can't wait to play as Darui. I hadn't been keeping up with the anime lately. I stopped downloading them because I got Hulu Plus. But, Hulu Plus quality with Naruto Shippuden is trash, so I stopped watching them. I hadn't bought any dvds lately neither. I need to get back on that. I'll probably end up downloading the animes again, unless Hulu can get there shit together. Naruto has piss poor quality streaming from Hulu on Live. It's sad. I think the eps that have been released on dvd have better quality, but I already own most of those. |

North Dakotans want to conserve state's best lands, waters
Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 3:06 PM
By The Nature Conservancy
BISMARCK, N.D. — A large majority of North Dakotans support conserving the state's best water, natural areas and wildlife habitat through dedicated state funding and by providing landowners the tools they need to conserve their property, according to a poll released over the summer by Ducks Unlimited, The Nature Conservancy, Audubon Dakota and the North Dakota Natural Resources Trust.
Conducted by a bipartisan research team, the survey results clearly demonstrate that by a wide margin North Dakota voters support conservation and approve of expanding upon current efforts to better protect the state's natural areas, water and wildlife habitat. Specifically, voters favor dedicating state funding for conservation, allowing landowners to sell their property to non-profit conservation organizations, and permanent conservation easements.
The poll found that 67 percent of voters support dedicating state funding for conservation. Voters are nearly twice as likely to strongly support setting aside state money to protect North Dakota's lands and waters than to strongly oppose such an action. Support for dedicating state funding for conservation is not only deep but also broad, with voters from every region of the state and from a wide variety of demographic groups in the state backing the concept.
"The state is changing and it's clear that a sizeable majority of North Dakotans agree that it's time to preserve our best lands and waters, including by increasing state funding for conservation," said Keith Trego, executive director of the North Dakota Natural Resources Trust.
Genevieve Thompson, vice president and executive director of Audubon Dakota, agreed. "North Dakota residents love the outdoors. And they want to conserve their water, wetlands, wildlife habitat and native prairies."
The poll also showed that an overwhelming majority of North Dakotans — 85 percent — support allowing landowners to sell their property to conservation organizations. Support is overwhelming even among voters who make a living from agriculture — 83 percent among those at least somewhat reliant on agriculture favor allowing landowners to sell their property to conservation organizations.
In addition, three in five North Dakota voters support allowing conservation organizations to use permanent easements as a strategy for conserving natural areas, water and wildlife habitat in the state. More than 60 percent of voters support conservation easements, or voluntary land preservation agreements, that allow landowners to continue to own, work and maintain their property but ensure that the land is not developed.
"There seems to be a disconnect between what North Dakotans want and the state allows, especially regarding laws that keep landowners from conserving their property with a permanent conservation easement or by selling it to a conservation group," said Steve Adair, director of Ducks Unlimited's Great Plains Office in Bismarck.
Peggy Ladner, director of The Nature Conservancy in North Dakota, said she hopes the results released will prompt state leaders to step up and provide the tools needed to conserve North Dakota's best lands and waters.
"We're hopeful that state lawmakers will recognize that this is both what the public wants and what is best for North Dakota," she said. "By conserving key lands and waters, we protect the quality and quantity of our water supply, mitigate flooding, control erosion, preserve grazing lands and ensure the state remains a great place to live, work and explore."
The telephone poll of 400 likely voters from throughout North Dakota was conducted between April 6 and April 8 by the bipartisan research team of Public Opinion Strategies, a Republican political and public affairs research firm, and Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin, Metz and Associates, a Democratic research and public policy analysis firm. The poll's margin of error for the full sample is 4.9 percent.
