Well the roster is what it is given that the book is a reimagining of the original from 20 years ago. You never know what new characters could join the cast, but I don't like when character's races are changed just for the sake of an appearance of diversity. Ultimate Nick Fury, for example.
Not sure if it is an homage cover, but good call on the similarities.
VALIANT, Saga, Chew, Manhattan Projects, Revival, East of West, Locke & Key, Hawkeye, Young Avengers.
It's looking up now that Kris is practically leading them. So it'll be a white male female leader, an overweight female flier, another female firestarter (though is Flamingo white?), a learning-disabled white male brick and a possibly gay white male powerhouse/all-rounder (because Peter was always meant to be gay originally, but it was never shown). They do come out looking a bit white, and I think they could have just changed that, but it's an interestingly diverse group. Several of those are extremely rare in comics.
On specific topic, I didn't love the art on six, so I'm happy it's changing. They're lucky it was the Renegade arc, because I can see how each issue focusing on a new character on the team would make the art changes less jarring overall.
Looking for artists, know I won't find any. That blows.
Not a bit White absolutely white especially when the other side looks pretty darn diverse which as I said before always scares me when I see the All White Team of Heroes fighting the Evil Minority Villains. I am not saying minorities all need to be heroes but a few is not to much to ask.
Yeah Livewire got reimagined and seeing an overweight female hero is nice treat but Livewire can be changed I don't see why one or two on the "Hero Side" cannot be changed either.
Black History Month & 29 Days in February
Well I assume Peter is suppose to be the "Hero" of this tale with Harada as the "Villian." Am I wrong? Generally, the main character's side are the guys your suppose to be rooting for while the other side is who your suppose to be rooting against.
Black History Month & 29 Days in February
That's not quite fair. The most powerful man in the world wants to control all of humanity and, as near as I can figure, remove any semblance of self-determination from the "norms" is probably not the guy I want to root for. The young, mentally-damaged people who are making mistakes but still trying to do the right thing (while regretting the mistakes they make) and are opposing the threat of a single man controlling everything (economy, defense, etc). Not to mention that the philanthropic, educational, and training institution murders 25% of the people it attempts to "activate."
In my opinion is implied in every post. Please make an effort to remember that.
Well if you want to bring "details" into this...lol...just like the original there are a lot of grey areas here. I just wanted to make the point that just because these characters are White does not make them "heroes" who are to be looked up to. And just because the "bad guys" are more ethnic does not make them evil. Pete may be the protagonist and Harada the antagonist, but we're not talking Steve Rogers and the Mandarin here.
VALIANT, Saga, Chew, Manhattan Projects, Revival, East of West, Locke & Key, Hawkeye, Young Avengers.
I don't know... in your example, I don't see many people not taking the Punisher's side. Whereas in Harbinger, it's an ensemble cast where nobody (except probably Faith) comes off looking very heroic. Even Kris was sounding a little power-drunk at the end there in issue 6. Which is great, because it makes the whole world of the book far more interesting. I mean, I love good old superhero action as much as the next guy, but I REALLY love complex character dynamics and moral shades of grey.
(Which has pleasingly been a prominent part of the Valiant approach.)
Looking for artists, know I won't find any. That blows.
I think anyone would be hard pressed to suggest that Punisher comes off looking heroic in most cases, even if they take his side.. I'm saying the moral ambiguity between Punisher and Kingpin is much more narrow than between the Renegades and Harada Corp. I stand by that.
Definitely agree that it is a standout hallmark of Valiant titles that I very much appreciate. It has spoiled my enjoyment of most other publishers though. :)
In my opinion is implied in every post. Please make an effort to remember that.
I'll amicably disagree about the Punisher, who I find is usually quite unambiguously positioned as the good guy in most stories. The deepest the moral questions usually go is "is it all right to kill people at all" as opposed to accepting that as the character's premise and asking "when is it okay to kill and when is it not?" He largely is mowing down hardened criminals, corrupt cops and the like. Which is fine, but a little unambiguous for my liking. In terms of concept, I absolutely agree with you that he's not a true hero, but it rarely comes across that way in his stories. (Interestingly, even when he guest stars in superhero books, he's usually presented as right, but inexcusable in his methods. Which means that he's still an infallible judge of others morality...) But that's a storytelling/marketing concern and off-topic here. :)
In regard to the Valiant books, Harbinger is the winner in the shades-of-grey competition, with XO next, probably. The others all have complex moral stuff going on, but it's less overt. I mean, Project Rising Spirit has legitimate reasons for doing the terrible things they do, and Harada's organization is proof of that. But Bloodshot is equally (arguably more... I'd say more) justified in seeking revenge and answers, just as PRS should answer publicly for all the times they've crossed the line as, in the grey goo incident. It's all so awesome!
Looking for artists, know I won't find any. That blows.
Well for me it comes down to my basic difficulty with the concept of "anti-hero." To me, the term for a person who employs the tactics of villains to fight crime is, properly, "CRIMINAL." It's a great disservice to mainstream superheroes that there aren't stories bringing these guys down, but that's the trend of what passes for dark, gritty comics these days.
It's an approach Valiant seems to be avoiding so far.
In my opinion is implied in every post. Please make an effort to remember that.

Government pledges up to €3 million for humanitarian and recovery assistance in Iraq
The Government today announced that it will pledge up to €3 million in further humanitarian and recovery assistance to Iraq, with a focus on meeting the basic needs of the most vulnerable Iraqis, especially women and children.
The pledge is being made at the Donors' Conference on Iraq which will be held in Madrid on 23/24 October. This pledge is in addition to the €5 million made available to NGOs, International Humanitarian Organisations and UN agencies to meet the most pressing needs of Iraq's poor. The additional pledge will be disbursed as needs arise over the next 18 months. The funds will be disbursed through UN Trust Fund mechanisms and valued partners such as UN agencies, Red Cross and NGOs.
Announcing the pledge Minister of State Tom Kitt TD stated:
"While my principal concern remains assisting the poorest of the poor, especially in Africa, I believe it is incumbent on us to continue to respond to the most pressing needs of the most vulnerable in Iraq.
Our focus in Iraq will continue to be those sections of society, especially women and children, who have suffered most over the last two decades and during the recent conflict.
It is important that the UN should play a central role in the recovery of Iraq. I believe it must be at the heart of the reconstruction process. It has the experience, capacity and perceived impartiality to carry development forward."
Note for Editors:
To date in 2003 €5 million has been disbursed to the Red Cross, Unicef, World Food Programme (WFP), Concern, Trocaire and Goal. This funding was primarily targeted at responding to the humanitarian crisis.

Here are some shots of my daughter's first birthday invite. Her name starts with 'A' and it was her '1' birthday so we chose an alphabet theme. Upon brainstorming with some friends we landed on making an oversized alphabet block. The final piece is 3"x3"x3". I had three stamps made, the illustration, the name and the info. I am planning on doing a things organized neatly photo for my portfolio that will show everything I used to make these. In the end it was a long process, but I am super stoked on how these turned out.

Sierra Game King bullets

Sierra Game King bullets
Pretty much everyone knows that Sierra bullets shoot well in many if not most guns, they sure do for me. But who has used them for hunting and what is your opinion of them? I have always considered them as primarily a deer bullet and in the larger calibers perhaps an elk sized bullet in the Game King style. Opinions?

I have not used them to hunt with ses. I once used a Sierra Boattail to kill my first mulie in Idaho so many moons ago. The bullet broke up when it entered upon hitting a rib. A very small portion of the bullet veered to the left and put a hole roughly 1/4" long by about 1/16" wide in the top of the heart which proved to be fatal. The much larger portion of the bullet did something I thought not physically possible. The shot was perfectly broadside and that other section made basically a 90 degree turn and skittered down the inside of the rib cage, nicking the stomach and then exited on the SAME side as entry about 2/3'rds down the side of the animal. That's right, two holes on the same side of the deer from one bullet.
I've just been sour on Sierra's since then for hunting. But as mentioned, that was a long time ago.
Now, I can tell you a story from a friend of mine. He hunted with an outfit in Mexico for Coues deer for quite a few years. The owner was pretty well know and in fact Craig Boddington hunted with this same fellow. Well this outfitter hosted the big boys from Sierra one year and I believe also went to Africa with them on a PG hunt. From what I was told all they used were GameKings and with absolute success.
How's that for third perhaps fourth hand info? Sorry it's the best I got. But the outfitter that witnessed this would have no reason to b.s. that story.Bonse Aba

Thanks Phil, Thats the kind of stuff I am looking for. I have never hunted with them before but find of late that they shoot so well in a couple of rifles its tempting.
Anybody have Africa experience with the Sierra?
One fellow years ago got a little huffy with me when I opined that Sierra's were maybe not built well enough for buffalo in .375 caliber. He strongly defended them for such activity.

Scott, I have had really good success with the Sierra GK, they are unbelievably accurate in my Savage rifles. On game, it is really hit or miss, I have had some blow through the Whitetail and some blow up inside them. All in all, there is only one level of dead. I know I will catch some shit over this, expecially with the handloaders, but, in my Remington 700's I use Remington factory core lokt ammo, with the same level of accuracy and actually have not had one of them blow up inside an animal, again, one level of dead. That's my two cents, don't know if it helps or not, Scott.

Sounds like they work for you. Like you say dead is dead and whether or not the bullet exits or not is really not that important as long as it does the job. The most dramatic kills I ever saw come to think of it were the first two deer I ever killed. It was in Alaska and two deer fell to one shot each from my dads .284 Win using in fact Sierra bullets, whatever they were called in the 60's. Both deer were feet up in the air instantly and stone dead when we got to them. Both bullets had basically disintegrated inside the chest cavity with only minute fragments ever found. While eating of course!

I use the 7mm 140 GK in my 7x57 for Deer. It works.
Also the 6mm 100 GK in my sons .243. It works.
I've ordered some 175 GK's for the 7x57 for camels as bonded projectiles are a little 'tough'.
I would not use GK's on large 'hard' animals at magnum velocitys.Time spent in Reconnaisance is never wasted.

Scott,I live and hunt in Namibia and I ONLY use Sierra's.I use 165gr Gk's in .308 and 250gr Gk's in my .375.I have NEVER had any problems with them at all.I've even converted a few hunting buddies to using them.

Code4 and Docman, Thanks for the info. Code4 your "deer" run a bit larger than our deer, closer to elk size. And camels are pretty big too.
Docman glad to hear they do that well for you. I have a very good shooting .303 Brit Ruger No. 1 that loves the 180 gr Sierra Pro-Hunter bullet. Do you have any experience with them?

I have two buddies that use the Pro-Hunter and swear by them.One uses the 180gr spt in his .308,and the other uses the 225gr spt in his .338 win mag.They're both 'happy hunters'.Both hand-load and,much like myself, both have tested many different types of bullet.

The Pro Hunter is for closer range work and the Game King is for longer range work. In my CZ 550 7x57 I get 0.5" group at 100 yards with the 140 Game King. My close range choice is the Nosler Partition at 150 grains. The GK is for my moderate distance load. These Sierra bullets are not for magnums unless you back off and let the bullet lose some speed. My reloader has vast experience with the 7x57 cartridge and the Game King bullet as they are both his favorites, and he has seen and shot about everything in his 80+ years in the land of the living. I have shot 4 different bullets so far in my new 7x57, and the Game King nudges out the others by a slim margin in accuracy. I went through about 200 rounds in coming to this conclusion. For extremely long range work the Hornady A-Max or Berger VLD will probably beat the Game King. I will be hunting with the 162 A-Max and 140 GK in just a few more days. Mule deer on the high prairie of central Montana. Expected shooting range is 200-400 yards.
I have used Game Kings and Pro Hunters on antelope (7mm), mule deer and whitetail (7mm & 308), elk (308 & 338). I've used Game Kings on several African PG animals (215 gr 338) with great performance and accuaracy. I also use North Fork bullets in 308, 338 and 375 caliber and I have found that these bullets will penetrate better than the Sierra bullets and are very accurate as well. However, as one old hunter told me one time, "dead is dead". I have quit using Hornady Interlock bullets even though they were accurate because I was experiencing multiple cases of core and jacket separation on deer and elk size animals. To be fair, I have not had any problems with other types of Hornady bullets on the animals I have shot with them.

Initial proposal
copied from Talk:Russia
OK, here is my approach to an overarching geographic hierarchy for Russia. The top level categories are based on the newish Russian Federal Districts + one for Kaliningrad. I made a separate category for Kaliningrad because a) this makes the subregions for Northwestern Russia total up to a maximum 9 and b) Kaliningrad is really much more in Northern Europe than in Northwestern Russia, at least from a "getting in" or "getting out" perspective. I don't think we need many smaller subdivisions, at least until a lot more Russia content gets developed.
The two aspects of this hierarchy that I find least satisfying are the sub-regions under Central Russia (Golden Ring, Don-Voronezh Region, and Western Russia) and under Volga Region (West Volga Region and East Volga Region). Of all Russia, I am least familiar with the Central and Volga regions so I had to just improvise to subdivide these regions. It would probably be better if someone could come up with alternative subdivisions for these two top-level regions based on something actually related to differences in culture, geography, history, or politics.
Lastly, I do intend to make maps (and articles where they are lacking) for subdivisions, but would of course welcome help ;) --Peterfitzgerald Talk 01:43, 7 April 2007 (EDT)
Hey there Peter! Nice work, this seems like quite a large task!
One question about the name (or maybe they existed before and you just combined them), but to me it sounds a little weird to have Western Russia as a subregion of Central Russia. And to a lesser extent, Northeastern & Southeastern as a subregion of Far-Eastern (but I get that one a little more). I don't know anything about Russia, just sounded weird at first sight. :) – cacahuate talk 14:59, 26 May 2007 (EDT)
- Agreed about the weirdness. I would prefer, I think, to leave the Far East as is—Russians refer to the Northeast as such and I don't know of a better name for the Southeast.
- I'm not very satisfied with any of the three Central Russia regions (Don-Voronezh Region, Golden Ring, and Western Russia). I don't know this particular region very well (which is odd, since it is the most important region) and I basically just made those up myself for lack of any better ideas. The "Central Russia" name is common use and we shouldn't replace it, but it actually is westernmost Russia. Accordingly, I called the western chunk of it "Western Russia," because "Western Central Russia" seemed too silly. And it is the extreme west of Russia, where the most intense WWII fighting occurred (which destroyed most of the legacy of this historically rich region). There is some basis for calling the "Golden Ring" area as such, but the "Don-Voronezh Region" is a bogus term I just dreamed up for the leftover category and would probably best be replaced. I'm not at all averse to completely resorting the regions of Central Russia—I just don't have any better ideas, let me know if you do. --Peterfitzgerald Talk 15:20, 26 May 2007 (EDT)
- I don't since I don't know Russia at all, but thanks for explaining that. It seems like the way you've divided it is reasonable and digestible to the traveler, and that's the most important part... if someone thinks of a better name later, it's super easy to just move the article then. – cacahuate talk 16:04, 26 May 2007 (EDT)
It's going to look like I'm making random changes to this hierarchy (in particular, the European Russian hierarchy) without consulting anyone. To the contrary, we've had a good debate on the Russian version over whether and how to move away from the somewhat arbitrary administrative Federal District boundaries to a more intuitive scheme that makes more sense for travel. The relevant discussions, for those interested, are here and here. The changes are as follows:
1) Split off kursk, orlov, lipetsk, tambov, voronezh, belgorod, and bryansk oblasts from Central Russia to a new top-level region, "Black Earth." I don't know if that's the optimal name, but we can always change that. Other names would be Black Earth Region, Central Black Earth, Chernozemye, Chernozem, etc.
2) Keep the rest of the Central Russian oblasts as one non-subdivided top-level region (that is, no intermediate divisions between it and the oblasts).
3) Astrakhan & Volgograd oblasts moved to the Volga Region.
4) Volga Region split into three subdivisions: Upper Volga (Kirov, Nizhny Novgorod oblasts, Mari El, Udmurtia, & Chuvashia); Middle Volga (Ulyanov, Penza, Samara oblasts, Tatarstan, and Mordovia); and Lower Volga (Astrakhan, Volgograd, and Saratov oblasts).
5) Perm, Orenburg oblasts, and Bashkiria moved to Urals.
I'm pretty sure that's it. I'd normally wait a while to see if anyone else wants to make suggestions before moving forward, but I've already changed the maps per the Russian discussions and would like to keep things on the same page. More importantly, with the exception of one current unrelated discussion about Kamchatka & Koryakia, no one else on the English version has shown any real interest in delving into the nitty-gritty of Russia's regional organization; and that's in the entire history of Wikitravel! --Peter Talk 00:26, 28 February 2009 (EST)
- Noone gives a fuck about Russian travel except for visa details and how to rush through all of Russia towards the Mongolian border as quickly as possible :/ anyway, I assume that black earth region is derived from a Russian equivalent - it might make sense just to use that word instead, it looks a bit arbitrary in English no? --Stefan (sertmann) Talk 02:09, 28 February 2009 (EST)
- Ah missed that - I'd propose we use Chernozemye instead. --Stefan (sertmann) Talk 02:11, 28 February 2009 (EST)

Selling to SCE – Supply Chain Management
Employing Best Practices and Strategies
Our Supply Chain Management (SCM) group is responsible for all activities associated with procurement, storage, distribution, and final disposition of the goods and services the company needs to do business. We utilize industry best practices and other strategic business initiatives to help achieve our procurement and material management goals.
Our procurement goal is to decrease acquisition, ownership and disposal costs, ensure compliance with regulatory guidelines, and promote supplier diversity. We do this by implementing contracts with sensible terms and conditions.
Our purchasing decisions are based on value as measured by cost, quality, and service. Purchasing practices are carefully monitored by a variety of regulatory agencies such as the California Public Utilities Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Material Management
To provide the best customer service and perform maintenance and repairs on our electrical equipment, we must have an optimal supply of material (transformers, cable, meters, etc.) readily available.
SCM's material management function uses a variety of strategies to ensure material availability, including internal stocking, capacity planning, and consignment. Material management also coordinates the delivery of materials and manages the disposal and reclamation of salvageable material.
Purchasing Strategy
Our Supply Chain Management (SCM) group has adopted comprehensive purchasing strategies and programs. These strategies help SCM achieve its service, quality, and cost goals in the acquisition and management of goods and services.
Our purchasing strategy includes sourcing guidelines, supplier programs, diversity programs, and supply chain tools like electronic data interchange (EDI).
Our sourcing strategy is based on a process of creating value. In making sourcing decisions, we go beyond the purchase price to consider all supply chain costs associated with an item or service.
In addition to the purchase price, our sourcing decisions incorporate costs for storage, distribution, use, and disposal of goods. We also consider the impact of quality and service to internal SCE business processes.
The Supplier Performance program provides recognition to key suppliers for providing superior value, quality and service to SCE. In this program, an agreement is reached with each participating supplier detailing costs, quality, and service goals for the coming year.
The goals are specific to the type of product or service the supplier provides. Superior performance in these categories results in valuable public recognition and awards for high-performance suppliers.
We are committed to promoting opportunities for diverse business enterprises (DBEs), including woman, minority and service disabled veteran-owned businesses. Our Supplier Diversity program is designed to increase DBE participation in our bidding and contracting process.
Our general policy is to procure equipment, materials, supplies and services – including contract construction – on the basis of competitive bids from multiple qualified sources, except when otherwise justified.
If your business provides us with goods or services, or is a customer, and you have e-commerce capabilities such as Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), you may want to consider establishing an e-commerce connection with us.
Our EDI transactions are based on the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) X12 standard. If your business contracts with SCE and is interested in becoming an EDI trading partner, see our SCE Electronic Commerce FAQs for more information.

Crude Comments and Crass Behavior Mar 'Bachelor' Finale
Monday on the season finale of "The Bachelor," Juan Pablo picked Nikki Ferrell over Clare Crawley, and the bad news was clearly upsetting for the hairstylist from Sacramento. Juan Pablo tried to smooth things over by offering her a hug, but Clare pushed him away and instead gave him a piece of her mind. Telling the Venezuelan that she would never want her children having a father like him, Clare stormed off and continued to berate the man she thought she loved. But perhaps more shocking, Clare kind of revealed the vulgar comment Juan Pablo made while they were on a date in a helicopter, cementing Juan Pablo's status as the most hated Bachelor ever. And to top off the night, Juan Pablo would not declare his love for Nikki, just saying they're now "starting off." Sure, you can't make a man say he loves someone, but thanks to Twitter, you can sure know when America can't stand the Bachelor!

The Green Fairy Goes White: Germain-Robin Absinthe is a Knockout
Last year's absinthe boom yielded some beauts (St. George) and some duds (Pernod). But while the St. George Absinthe was, by a long shot, for me the best of the lot, as Eric Asimov noted in the Times, it's not for everyone. It wasn't the tasting panel's favorite, which Asimov explained, saying: "The next rank, particularly the St. George—with a spider monkey on its label beating on a skull—and the Jade Nouvelle-Orléans, offered greater complexity, with more pronounced floral and herbal flavors, and less focus on anise. Absinthe connoisseurs often seem to prefer these to the bottles that we favored." Indeed, it's the complexity that makes it so compelling, though it might be a shade more bitter than some other versions.
Northern California's second boutique absinthe (arriving in stores now) is from Mendocino's Germain-Robin distillery and should please all comers, both the connoisseurs and the casual tasters. It's brilliant. It's also not what some people might expect because it's not green. Rather, it's what they call an absinthe blanche, meaning that the spirit wasn't macerated with botanicals after distillation to give it that telltale green that so many people seek. Clear in the bottle, the absinth louches into a pure, cloudy white when hit with a little water.
The absinthe of green doesn't bother me at all, because this absinthe is so delicious. The personal project longtime Germain-Robin assistant distiller Crispin Cain, it begins with an apple-honey mead that's distilled on G-R's orginal pot still. Its irresistible complexity comes in part from such botanicals as rose geranium, lemon balm, wormwood, hyssop, lemon verbena, star anise, fennel seed, and lemon peel. The apple-honey base gives it a lovely internal sweetness, which is obviously bolstered with a fair bit of added sweetness. It is not an absinthe that you need to add sugar to. (in fact, I'd love to taste a slightly drier version).
Right now this beaut is only on sale in Northern California. To find a bottle near you, feel free to call Germain-Robin at 707-468-7896.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A southern Minnesota couple accused of starving their adopted son are planning to enter a plea.
Mona and Russell Hauer are scheduled to appear in Nicollet County District Court on Monday morning. The plea comes the day Mona Hauer was scheduled to start trial on various felonies, including child neglect.
The boy was 8 years old and weighed less than 35 pounds when his mother brought him to a hospital last October because she thought he had vomited blood. Authorities said he was 3 feet, 5 inches tall, and about the weight of an average 4-year-old.
Earlier this year, Nicollet County District Judge Todd Westphal terminated the couple's parental rights to the boy, but decided not to terminate their rights to their other three children.

Wife Put Pot in Officer's Meatballs
NEW YORK - A detective suspended after testing positive for drugs says his wife served him meatballs spiked with marijuana because she wanted to keep him out of harm's way by forcing him into retirement.
An administrative judge believed him, and recommended this week that Anthony Chiofalo be reinstated.
Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly has yet to decide what to do.
"We can't comment because the matter will still come before the police commissioner for a final determination," said spokesman Paul Browne.
Chiofalo, a 22-year-veteran assigned to the Joint Terrorism Task Force, was suspended without pay last year after a random drug test found marijuana in his system. The officer denied ever using drugs and demanded a hearing.
During an investigation, his wife said she had substituted marijuana for oregano in her meatball recipe in hopes of forcing him to leave police work.
The detective's lawyers also presented evidence that she had passed a lie-detector test, and offered testimony from a toxicologist that the excuse was valid.

Car Rental
What you thought of: Renting the car far in advance.
What you forgot to save for: The toll pass charge.
How to get a good deal: If you're going to be doing highway driving, getting an electronic toll pass such as E-ZPass, I-PASS or FasTrak from your rental car agency might seem too convenient to be a good deal. It is. "If customers decide that they would like to use the electronic tolls and our devices, there is a fee, and it is a fee of $2.95 per day of the rental, up to a maximum of $14.75 per rental month.That doesn't include the tolls--the customers are still responsible for the incurred tolls," says Paula Rivera, manager of public affairs for Hertz. Additionally, as soon as you use the pass once, you're charged for it every subsequent day of your rental, even if you don't use it again for the rest of the trip. If you're traveling in your home state or a state that uses the same pass as yours, you'll save money by bringing the one you use at home. Out of state, it's best to do things the old-fashioned way and use the cash lanes.

What you thought of: Paper plates, plastic cups, utensils and plenty of ketchup.
What you forgot to save for: Enough meat to feed a crowd-at this year's prices, not last year's.
How to get a good deal: Revisit the London broil, an inexpensive steak that's frequently overlooked but, when cooked correctly, tastes like a pricey top sirloin. "Everybody shies away from a London broil," says Jessica Applestone, co-owner of Fleisher's Grass-Fed & Organic Meats, of Julie Powell fame. "They're like, 'Oh my God, my mother used to make that; it's disgusting; it used to curl up around the edges.'" The trick to ensuring the steak tastes like a fancier cut is to cook it very quickly: "Use a lot of salt, a quick sear on each side, and serve it pretty rare," Applestone says.

Vacation Activities
What you thought of: The rates at the all-inclusive resort you picked.
What you forgot to save for: All the activities they're going to charge you for once you're there. "The words 'all inclusive' are deceptive," says Peter Greenberg, the travel editor for CBS News and author of The Best Places for Everything. In fact, there's one clear signal that a whole bunch of things cost extra: "The most dreaded symbol in the English language is the asterisk," Greenberg says.
How to get a good deal: The best time to ask about how that little star will affect the cost of eating, water sports and childcare options is before you get to the hotel. If you don't ask in advance, Greenberg says, start talking to management as soon as you arrive. The resort will be less likely to give you a deal on individual lessons or services (after all, they've still got to pay the tennis instructor or masseuse), but there are places where you'll have more success: "They'll discount activities in which their basic costs aren't going to get killed," says Greenberg. "Individual water skiing lessons, no. On the other hand, the entry fee to a group activity, like a kids' camp, might be discounted."

Beach Equipment
What you thought of: Sunscreen, water bottles, towels, sand pails and shovels.
What you forgot to save for: A sun umbrella. "People are constantly coming up and saying, 'We didn't prepare for sunshine like this,'" says Wyatt Werneth, a spokesman for the American Lifeguard Association.
How to get a good deal: Buy it at home (Target sells them for as little as $5). If you have arrived without an umbrella and are unsure as to whether buying an umbrella or renting is more costly, Werneth says, "Generally, you're [still] better off if you buy it yourself." The only exception to this rule is windy weather. "If you go and buy a cheap umbrella and it's windy," Werneth explains, "it's going to tear your umbrella up, flip it up and blow it across the beach."

Buying Camp Gear
What you thought of: Tuition for camp.
What you forgot to save for: The equipment to send with your darling camper.
How to get a good deal: Stick to the list. "Sending things beyond the camp list is superfluous," says Jill Tipograph, founder and CEO of Everything Summer, a firm that helps kids and teens find camps and summer programs. "Parents don't realize that most of the camps have pre-configured cubbies or closets, and they don't have a lot of space," says Tipograph. Send a flashlight with extra batteries. The camp catalog will have gear--but at a premium price. If your child desperately wants a camp sweatshirt, go ahead and buy one, but you'll find better deals on everything else, from rain jackets to portable fans, at local stores.
Use the cash you save on gear to buy a hardy trunk, which is the best camp luggage option because, unlike a duffel, it'll keep all your camper's possessions in one place. When you're checking out different models, Tipograph suggests that you find one with "material that is weather (and mold) resistant [and has] strong corners with extra-strength sewing." If the camp has cubbies or shelves, opt for a soft trunk. They're less pricey, fold down when not being used, and still give you enough space to pack everything without loading your child down with a bunch of bags.
There's one exception: "If your child is going to be living out of a trunk, you need a hard trunk," says Tipograph. "This may be the only storage vehicle a camper has. Hard trunks are designed for packing and ongoing accessible storage," whereas soft trunks are designed mostly for packing. While the prices on trunks may seem high, keep in mind that, unlike other camp gear, you can use it for travel and home storage year-round.

Hostess Gifts
What you thought of: The occasional bottle of wine for friends.
What you forgot to save for: Gifts for all 10 of the cookouts you've been invited to, plus an attractive something for the lovely acquaintances who invited you to their beach house.
How to get a good deal: Skip the last-minute dashes to the liquor store--they always involve spending more than you intended. Instead, check out our recommendations for hostess gifts. Pick the one you like best, stock up on it and give it out at every party. Our selections start at $8, and they're so good, you'll be guaranteed a return invitation.

Amusement Parks
What you thought of: Buying tickets for a day at the amusement park.What you forgot to save for: Food and the inevitable trip to the souvenir shop.
How to get a good deal: Tickets to an amusement park typically cover the entrance fee and all the rides in the park. Funnel cake, Skee-Ball, clown toss, live musical shows, stuffed animals and logo caps all cost an additional fee. You can purchase coupons for the extras when you arrive at the park, but for deeper discounts, purchase them in advance on the park's website. "We offer coupon books that are 20 percent off on games if you buy them in advance," says Greg Morrow, chair of the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Games Committee and games and merchandise manager at Lake Winnepesaukah.
To save on food, Ken Whiting, an amusement parks consultant, who is chair of IAAPA's Food and Beverage Committee and president of Whiting's Foods, which handles food for the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, suggests purchasing pre-sold meal tickets, which give a discount of "up to 10 to 20 percent." For additional savings on games, food and shows, Whiting suggests friending the park on Facebook. "With some regularity, there will be an offer put out on the park's Facebook page. Save 10 percent on a particular item on a particular day," he says.

The Thunder dropped a 2nd consecutive game to the 8th seeded Houston Rockets. In a baffling turn of events, the Thunder lost in every single quarter, shot a collective 8-33 from 3-point range, and never seriously threatened the Rockets the entire 2nd half. We break down each individual performance in today's grades.
Our game 5 graders are Ramona and Craig.
36 points on 11-23 shooting, 1-8 from 3-point range, 7 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 block, 3 turnovers
Grade | Comments | |
Ramona |
Kevin, in his multiple roles as point guard, small forward, and one of the game's top rebounders, looked fine once again. KD went scoreless in the fourth, taking on another role as decoy, and opening up scoring opportunities for Jackson. |
Craig |
He was the only reason the Thunder was able to stay in the game. The scoreless 4th quarter was troublesome but he did score a billion points in the 3rd quarter. There is a great chance that after the game KD kicked a gigantic hole in a wall in the locker room. And by wall I mean Kevin Martin's chest. Get well soon Russell Westbrook. |
20 points on 7-15 shooting, 2-6 from 3-point range, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, 2 turnovers
14 points on 7-14 shooting, 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks, 0 turnovers
9 points on 3-8 shooting, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks, 0 turnovers
Grade | Comments | |
Ramona | Thabo had some solid numbers. He wasn't flashy on the floor, but he had a legitimate game. | |
Craig |
James Harden hit the first seven 3s he attempted in the game. I know Thabo wasn't the only guy guarding him all game but he is the "defensive stopper" on this team. He gets the plus for the back to back threes he hit to keep things from getting out of hand in the second half. |
2 points on 1-3 shooting, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 0 turnovers
Grade | Comments | |
Ramona | After getting beaten repeatedly on several rolls to the basket by Asik, Perkins exploded when Parsons got away from Durant, and Perk picked up a foul on Parsons. He angrily screamed at KD to play some (beep)ing defense. I certainly understand passionate outburst. But then, he glared at KD and screamed the same thing again. Perk gets the F for falling apart. | |
Craig |
Omer Asik did work in the paint on the pick and roll game in the second half and Perk could do nothing to stop it. Asik is not one of the centers that should be giving Perkins this much trouble but that is the problem with playing Perkins. He has become a liability on defense. That would have been blasphemy to say two years ago but a lot happens in two years. |
3 points on 1-10 shooting, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 turnover
8 points on 2-6 shooting, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, 2 turnovers
Grade | Comments | |
Ramona | Fish was exceptional on the defensive end, getting in position to take several charges. However, he shot under 50% offensively. | |
Craig |
Hit a few threes but was completely unable to keep anyone in front of him on defense. Makes it difficult to get into position to take a charge when Patrick Beverley and Aaron Brooks are blowing past you on their way to the basket. |
6 points on 3-3 shooting, 2 rebounds, 2 blocks, 0 turnovers
Grade | Comments | |
Ramona | Perhaps, he didn't play long enough to play poorly. However, when he did play, he took care of business. Nice put-backs. Nice rotating defense. | |
Craig |
I mean when he actually got to play he had an impact on defensive with two blocks and had a tip in rebound. It would have been nice to see him more than seven minutes in the game. Maybe Scott Brooks was resting him for game 6 because I can't really think of any other reason for him to only play seven minutes. |
DeANDRE LIGGINS
2 points on 1-4 shooting, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block
Grade | Comments | |
Ramona | Even I started pulling for Asik to hit his free throws so we could get back to playing the game. Evidently, Coach Brooks no longer believes his team can beat the Rockets. | |
Craig |
I was fine with the Hack-Asik when he called for it. Coaches tend to wait too long to use the foul in order to extend the game and create an advantage for themselves. Brooks saw an opportunity to use the Hack-Asik game plan and it worked. Well, it worked briefly. Brooks waited way too long to jump out of the Hack-Asik once he started doing it. The Thunder cut the lead to six and that is when they should have stopped fouling and played some defense. But that did happen and Asik got in a groove and made Brooks looks stupid. Also, why in the hell was Nick Collison glued to the bench in this game? Was Brooks worried that Ronnie Brewer was getting lonely and wanted to give him someone to talk with during the game? I am not saying that Collison's playing time was the difference in the Thunder winning this game. But he does add a lot of energy and hustle when he plays and that was lacking very early and often for the Thunder. |

Fullscreen isn't good for Flash Games because of their resolutions... It's just my opinion :D

some games need to be compensated for bigger res a couple of games with high quality res options can be stretched full screen theres a website tat if good with full screen called playhub or atleast there getting better with it as they try to full screen all thier games but i think a full screen would be nice here or atleast bigger.
Posted Aug 15, '12 at 6:15pm
OK so 3 people agree (me included) and 1 disagree. Actually i gave it a thought that if it would be full screen, it would completely lower the graphics of the game. But for those who like full screen shouldn't actually care about it. I'm very used to watching videos on YouTube in full screen. Not so many problems. But still... people agree to my idea :D

Some games can have full screen, (those from experienced game developer) but not all games, because it would take extra effort so it doesn't make since for the people who are learning to make games to do so.

New Balance 998 "Made in USA" – Grey – Red – Blue
February 26th, 2014 by Brendan Dunne | 8 comments
The New Balance 998 is feeling a lot of heat at the moment thanks to the strong releases coming from the neighboring New Balance 997, a model that's triumphantly returned in 2014 with its original tooling on deck. On top of that, the New Balance 998 hasn't had any collab help yet this year, as opposed to last year where we got a team up seemingly every couple of months. And yet the model is trooping on with strong colorways like this one featuring a speckling similar to that found on the larger crop of April, 2014 pairs. Get the full peek after the break and stay tuned to Sneaker News to find out when and where you can purchase a pair.

I'm writing this as a man who purchase a mini for my girlfriend (age 46). She's used RL Romance for a couple of years, so I thought I'd get her a sample of this to try. She said it was okay but too sweet smelling for her. She loves Light Blue, Romance, and Euphoria....but turned this down. However, my 21 yr. old daughter accepted it and loves it! I think this is a perfume geared toward a younger woman, but it does smell very nice if you like a fruity, sweeter (but not sticky sweet...just enough) scent.

Comments about Ralph Hot By Ralph Lauren:
A very sensual fragrance, very warm and reminds me of summer nights in Spain. It's a very (as the name suggests) hot and almost sexual scent. It's quite musky and deep, and has sweet, fruity and almost chocolatey tones. It can be a little on the heavy side for day wear, but it's also very much a 20-something's scent. My fiance loves it!

text: Welcome! UsccGettysburg.org is your resource for Gettysburg Christian programs and events. Over the last nine years of research, we have uncovered a true story of heroes that went to the battlefields with bibles, bandages and the love of Christ. And as we have learned about this "untold" story of the civil war era it has opened up an area of research related to the spiritual journey of America. While much of America's Christian Heritage has been ignored or forgotten, these stories provide the critical backdrop of how America had gotten to fight on the battlefields of America...and survived! Your study of American heritage will be incomplete without recognizing and learning about the most important part...the spiritual element. Our nation is founded upon the Bible and Lord Jesus Christ. We look forward to meeting you at our new museum and sharing this great story with you on your visit to Gettysburg! John and Susan Wega

Paula Abdul turns 50: Let's look back at her best songs
If you're the right age, you spent some very formative years listening to Paula Abdul's "Forever Your Girl" (1988) and "Spellbound" (1991) albums. Now the former pop star, choreographer and Laker girl is turning 50 years old Tuesday, June 19, so let's take a look at her greatest hits.
"Forever Your Girl," which went seven times platinum in the U.S., had four No. 1 hits - the title track, "Straight Up," "Cold Hearted" and "Opposites Attract." It's hard to pick a favorite out of those, but we would have to go with "Cold Hearted." That music video definitely seemed scandalous when we were young.
The album also had a No. 3 hit, "It's Just the Way That You Love Me," which was also a fun one, and we liked "Knocked Out" too.
In 1991, Abdul released a less dance-y album, "Spellbound," which brought us "Vibeology," "Blowing Kisses in the Wind," "Promise of a New Day" and the Keanu Reeve-starring video "Rush Rush."

The AFL has a responsibility to grow our great game across the entire nation. It is widely acknowledged that community football clubs and leagues are the foundation of Australian football, and that the future growth of the game will depend on the strength and viability of community football. With this in mind, we are striving to assist community football clubs to enhance their operations for the betterment of football.
The concept of the Swisse AFL Quality Club Program is to provide an opportunity for all community football clubs to achieve a minimum standard of club administration and to recognise and reward clubs for achieving the base standard through to standards of excellence. Keeping this in mind, the program is designed to assist club volunteers meet minimum acceptable standards as easily as possible. It is anticipated that every community football club throughout the nation will already be implementing the practices detailed in this program to achieve Bronze level and that Silver and Gold levels become a target in the future.
Creating a quality environment at your football club will be of enormous benefit to your club as a whole and all of your members. Some of the benefits of being involved with this program include:
Providing an atmosphere that will help to attract new participants, officials and members (and retain those you already have);
Providing an environment that will be attractive to sponsors and help your club promote itself amongst the community and particularly to your local Council;
Minimising many risks associated with running a sporting club;
Creating a best practice guide for your current Committee and all future Committees; and
Participating in a sport that can continue to promote itself as a leading sport where quality is valued highly.
Ultimately, the benefit of being involved in this program is to create a better club!

Hi Marie! :D
Although I don't personally have any of these items to offer presently, I thought I'd pass along a few tips . . . (although you may already know of these).
1. a list of local resale/thrift shops
2. TWO local thrift shop w/frequent sales
3. CraigsList & FreeCycle
Best wishes, Marie!
Hey, we're frequently in the Four Hills area (that's where grandparents live) and have kids about the same ages. Glad to meet you!

Thanks, I'm a member of Freecycle and I go on Craig's List sometimes, but I never seem to get in there in time when someone posts something I'm interested in. I've been wanting to check out thrift shops but wasn't sure which ones were good, so I will definitely be reading that thread.

Hi Marie,
I am going to assume from your post that you are pregnant. When are you due? I am due in May and my babies usually grow out of their bouncy seats pretty fast. If the timing works out you're welcome to it when we're done. Also, if you get a chance, Other Mothers has what I consider great prices on Maternity clothes. I'd offer you mine but I'm not a small/Xsmall.
I have not had much luck with freecycle either. I too seem to always miss the good stuff.
Good luck!

I'm due around October 1, so if you're done with your bouncy seat by then I'd love to work something out with you.
It's really hard to find small maternity clothes. With my first pregnancy it wasn't a problem, but the clothes seem to keep getting bigger and bigger. I borrowed some from another skinny friend with my last pregnancy, but she's using them now. :P So I think finding used small clothes is my best bet. I definitely need to take a day and try out some thrift and retail shops.

I've got a few girl things for free for you if you are interested. Barett thrift on Lomas near Carlisle is my favorite. I also must tell you how good the prices at Other Mothers is! They have small maternity clothes for cheap. What size shoe is your girl?
I can drop them near you or to you on one of my weekly trips to town.

How much you looking to spend?
A very cheap way that I used on a work truck to keep it level was to find a town car and rip out the air ride, controls, and leveler. I hauled wood up to the top of the cab in that 1/2 ton before the rear seal/transmission went out on the highway. Between the 230k on the engine and the toasted transmission and the fact I had 1200 total invested. I decided to just part with the truck. But, the town cars air ride performed like a champ keeping me level the 2years I ran it. It is a very easy/cheap way to get a level ride. The best part is if you do need parts it won't take three weeks to get them. That is if the company is still around when you need parts. You can play around with a simplistic dump system and level it yourself. This requires you screw around adjusting the air pressure on each different load due to the change in weight. It is really simplistic though requiring you to only set the psi to say 50 and then run the truck. Once unloaded you drop it back to your unloaded psi of 35 or so and your golden. You can install a aftermarket leveling system. But, the leveling sensors are external. Which is good for a street only tow rig. But, if you end up driving into the woods or a field you will quickly realize how vulnerable these sensors are(been there). Ride tech has internal leveling system in there shock wave series if cost is not a concern. These things are the best I have seen so far for leveling, total suspension control, and ride comfort. I have installed all of them. You are not slamming this thing so it should be a really easy install. The only fab work I see is if you go the town car route which means you will need to mount some coil buckets on. I like air ride for the comfort. So far it has been the best option for comfort/control in a street ride. |

Could you live without e-mail for 30 days? No smartphone, no work e-mail, no personal e-mail. Writer and comedian Katie Goodman put herself on a 30-day e-mail detox and chronicled her experience for an article in the March 2008 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine. Katie talks with Gayle about what she learned and how being e-mail-free has changed her life.
Katie says some of her co-workers weren't too happy when their e-mail messages to her bounced back. The good thing about that, Katie says, was that more people began calling her on the phone or stopping by to see her to have a real conversation. "On e-mail, you're not having a conversation—you're pontificating, you're making speeches at each other, little mini-speeches with no interruptions," she says. While she may have missed out on a few important bits of information while on her e-mail detox, Katie says she realized the impact e-mail can on people's egos. "It really struck me how all-important we all think we are," she says. "I think when you take a break from something—you go to a retreat center, you go to a spa, you get a massage for an hour—it really gives you a minute to step back," she says. Now that the detox is over, Katie says she tries to approach the way she uses her e-mail differently. She says she waits at least an hour in the morning before checking her new messages, and she doesn't constantly check her e-mail throughout the day. "If everything you're doing is so important and all you're doing is racing to get things accomplished—which is what I feel like e-mail is doing … you're going to miss out." |
