The Q10 looks similar to the once-popular BlackBerry Bold, which was introduced in 2009 and was the last phone to run on the company's old operating system. It will have both a classic physical keyboard and a small touch screen and will run on RIM's new operating system, BlackBerry 10. Carriers and retailers are advertising the device at roughly $200 with a multiyear plan, putting it in line with other high-end devices on the market.
RIM is counting on keyboard-loving users like Ms. Cheng to snap up the new model. There is still a big market out there for keyboard-equipped smartphones, and RIM dominates it. The big problem: It is shrinking fast.
Last year, IDC estimated that the world-wide keyboard smartphone market was 62.8 million units, down from 100.2 million units in 2011. RIM's share of that market is 47%, according to IDC.

More quote details and news » and Huawei Technologies Co. have also started pushing more keyboard-equipped phones into developing countries.
The market for touch-screen-only phones, meanwhile, jumped from 372 million units in 2011 to 650.1 million units last year, according to IDC. RIM's share of that pie: 3%.
RIM executives say they understand the shift. That is why they chose to roll out the all-touch Z10 ahead of the Q10, they say. RIM can count on a loyal following of keyboard-using customers, but it had to make an extra push for its touch-screen device. Chief Executive Thorsten Heins also said RIM knew the all-touch Z10 was probably better suited to succeed in the exploding "bring-your-own-device" market, in which workers are increasingly using their personal phones for work.
Still, the decision baffled some customers and carriers.
"I do wish they came out with [the Q10] first or at the same time," Ms. Cheng says. "I think a lot of people are on the fence and want a new phone, and they may have made their decision already. I don't know why it took so long."
When RIM told carrier partners months ago that it would be launching the Z10 first, carrier executives expressed disappointment that both phones wouldn't be coming out at the same time, according to people familiar with the matter. When they asked for clarification about the staggered-launch strategy, RIM executives didn't elaborate, according to these people.
"Our approach to launching BlackBerry 10 was to focus first on bringing our all-touch BlackBerry Z10 smartphone to market, and then follow with the 'qwerty' BlackBerry Q10," a RIM spokesman said in a statement.
Since that launch schedule was relayed to carriers, the Q10 rollout has slipped a bit. It was originally scheduled to launch about eight weeks after the Z10. When the Q10 arrives in the U.K. and Canada at the end of this month, the gap between phone launches will be roughly 12 weeks.
One reason for the delay is that RIM has had a tougher time than it expected formatting the new operating system to the smaller Q10 screen, according to a person close to the company. When performing functions on the screen, "The initial thought was, 'Oh, we'll just scrunch it down,'" according to this person. "But you end up with very little screen real estate. They have had to redesign apps [for the Q10] without truly redesigning them, and that's really hard. It's taken longer than anticipated."
A RIM spokesman said it is "delivering the BlackBerry Q10 according to our stated plans."
Sales of the Z10 have been decent in some global markets. RIM says it sold one million Z10s in the last quarter, and executives have called the U.K. and Canada launches of the Z10 the company's "best ever." But the U.S. launch hasn't looked as strong.

All of which makes the stakes of the Q10 launch that much higher for RIM. Many analysts think sales of the Q10 will be brisk, as longtime current BlackBerry users upgrade their phones.
BlackBerry fan Antonio Torres, 33, a small business consultant in the Bronx, has been using an older touch-screen BlackBerry, the Torch. But he says he's planning to buy a Q10 as soon as it is available. "I want my keyboard back," he said. "That's what it comes down to."

Leave as they are

i'd lower it first pal!
leave them as they are and color code all the lower trims on the car?
I'd leave them as they are because with the chrome painted black you will lose the illusion of a larger wheel.
The black will blend in with the tyre making the rim look smaller.
Could do the spokes black thou n leave the chrome,just my thoughts...

I agree with the above as I think Lm look small as they are becase you have a thick dish giving the illusion that the rim is smaller than they are opposed to a rim with spokes running all the way to the edge.
Paint the spokes black and lower it. Sweet.
I have also thought about having mine done one colour, but only to cover some of the corrosion on the rim and I'd go silver. At the end of the day your car your choice. I think they'd look ok.

Silver Creek's girls' basketball team held visiting Borden to two first-half field goals, and despite giving up 26 points in the third quarter, beat the Braves 56-41 on Thursday.
The Dragons jumped out to a 13-2 lead after one quarter and led 25-8 at intermission.
"We came out of the gates and did some nice things," Silver Creek coach Scott Schoen said. "We forced them into a lot of turnovers and held them to two field goals in the first half."
In the third quarter, Borden cut the Dragons' lead to eight points with a 26-15 outburst.
"We played hard and had a good third quarter," Borden coach Terry Rademacher said.
"The third quarter, they were a lot more aggressive than we were and they got hot," Schoen said of the Braves. "They made some tough shots against us."
In the fourth quarter, Creek was able to push the lead back to 20 points before settling for the 15-point win, its 10th of the season.
Again, it was the Dragon defense that keyed the spurt. Creek allowed just two fourth-quarter field goals.
"We got back to what we did [to get the early lead] in the fourth quarter," Schoen said. "We feel with our defense that if we can get to 50 points, we always have a chance."
Emily Clayton led the Dragons with 18 points, while teammate Alex Tinsley scored 12 and Alexis McFarland added 11.
"Those three, we have to have them score," Schoen said. "A lot of their scoring comes from what they do on defense for us."
Borden was led by Natalie Ruedinger, who had 10 points, Kristen Nestor's eight and Leslie Beatty and Shelby Kirchgessner, who finished with seven apiece.
NEXT: Silver Creek (10-4, 4-1 Mid-Southern Conference) at Salem (5-8, 0-4), Saturday; Borden (6-4) hosts Paoli (8-0), Saturday.
• Bulldogs fall despite Marcum's 38: Senior Tanner Marcum scored a career-high 38 points, but it was not enough for New Albany in its 68-57 loss on Thursday night at Class 3A No. 5 Madison.
Marcum's point total made her the seventh player in Bulldog girls' basketball history to reach the 1,000-point plateau. She shot 14-of-16 from the free-throw line and made two 3-pointers. Marcum scored 18 of New Albany's 26 fourth-quarter points.
"It's huge. She's just an amazing player," Bulldogs' coach Tammy Geron said about Marcum reaching the 1,000-point milestone. "We're very blessed to have her in our program."
Sophomore Brianne Nixon was the only other Bulldog in double figures with 10 points.
NEXT: New Albany (5-7, 1-2 HHC) hosts Floyd Central (8-4, 1-2), Saturday.
• Scottsburg gets by Clarksville: Scottsburg remained on top of the Mid-Southern Conference standings with a 72-35 victory over Clarksville on Thursday.
After holding a 30-22 halftime lead, the Warriorettes outscored Clarksville 28-8 in the third quarter to pull away.
"They started pressing and we didn't adjust until it was a little too late," Clarksville coach B.D. Ledbetter said. "We're playing six [players] and we got a little tired, maybe."
The Generals played some of their best basketball of the season in the first half while sticking close to the Class 3A No. 10 Warriorettes.
"We played really tough," Ledbetter said. "We executed and we finished, which has been something that has plagued us this year."
In the end, it was too much Katie Wampler, who finished with a game-high 34 points and now has 958 career points for Scottsburg.
"She knows what her strength is and she does it really well," Ledbetter said of Wampler. "She made it really tough to stay with her."
Abby Hurtgen had a team-high 13 points for Clarksville. Haley Jenkins added nine and Gabby Evans seven for the Generals.
NEXT: Clarksville (3-10) at Providence (7-5), tonight.
• Warriors snap four-game skid: Christian Academy broke a four-game losing streak on Thursday night with a 75-59 win at Crothersville. The game was a make-up for the teams' postponed semifinal meeting in the McKee Munk Invitational last Saturday in Henryville.
Senior Aaron Hayes led the Warriors with a game-high 24 points, while teammate DeVonta King had 21.
Christian Academy took a 14-3 lead after the first quarter and was up 34-17 at halftime.
NEXT: Christian Academy (4-5) hosts Christian Academy of Louisville (10-6), Saturday.

Home Movies: 'Angels & Demons' a Biblical Bore
Rarely before has wordy exposition been employed more excessively and to lesser effect than in Angels & Demons, Ron Howard's middling follow-up to The Da Vinci Code.
For those craving action and suspense, there's little to be found here, despite a whirlwind denouement that sees our hero, Harvard professor and renowned symbologist Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks), racing around Rome in search of an Illuminati killer. (More on that later.) Instead, screenwriters David Koepp and Akiva Goldsman subject us to a heavy-handed history lesson about the Catholic church that owes much to author Dan Brown's tendentiously researched novel.

We used 16" X 16" brick pavers to create a patio a few years ago. Last summer we added more pavers to enlarge the patio area. The ones that are a few years old are very faded in comparison to the new ones. Any ideas on how to renew the look of the ones that are older?
- Forum >
- Lawn & Garden >
- Fading Pavers
They can be stained with concrete staining products however they will not match the new pavers. Even pavers purchased from different batches may not match exactly. I would just let the new ones fade to match.
You should try cleansing solutions or some acidic solution to renew your old paver's.

For more than one hundred years, tourists and residents alike have flocked to Ye Olde Curiosity Shop, located on Seattle's waterfront. Information and history on Seattle's early years and an insight on some of the unique items in this Seattle store. Duncan, Kate C. 979.7772 DUNCAN |
B Street : the Notorious Playground of Coulee Dam
"B Street" tells intimate stories about the street of shops, restaurants, bars, and brothels where the workmen who built the Grand Coulee Dam spent their recreational hours and wages. From the beginning, B Street was the place to play and let off steam for the white workingmen who had faced the hard times of the Depression. It was a raucous playground that denied blacks and most dark-skinned Indians access to the frivolity, good times, and pretty ladies that were the main attractions of that provocative place.This vivid story of a colourful era is based largely on the memories of Lawney L. Reyes. As a young boy he wandered B Street with his little sister, Luana, and their dog, Pickles, while their Indian mother and Filipino father eked out a living running a Chinese restaurant. His mother's diary and the stories told by his parents and older members of the Sin-Aikst tribe contribute to his story. Reyes tells of hard times, dreams, and extreme courage and reveals the humour, toughness, and recklessness of the adventurers who came to work on the dam. He also describes the history and culture of the Indians whose villages were flooded and whose way of life was irrevocably changed by the building of the Grand Coulee Dam. Lawney L. Reyes is the author of "White Grizzly Bear's Legacy: Learning to be Indian and Bernie Whitebear: An Urban Indian's Quest for Justice". Reyes, Lawney L. 979.731 REYES |
Bretz's Flood : the Remarkable Story of a Rebel Geologist and the World's Greatest Flood
This book is about the of a geologist by the name of J. Harlan Bretz. In the 1920's he studied the deep channels that have been cut into the land in Eastern Washington. He came to the conclusion that only a huge flood could explain the landscape. He proposed this idea in 1923, but his theory was not taken seriously by the scientific world. In 1974 satellite photographs provided the proof that he was correct. This book would be interesting to anyone interested in geology or anyone who has seen and wondered about this unique Washington State feature. Soennichsen, John Robert. 550.92 SOENNIC |

Brian Thornton's Paper Son provides a seamy look at corruption and vice in Seattle's Chinatown in the late 1800s. Patricia Harrington's What Price Retribution? demonstrates that people may be homeless, but they aren't necessarily helpless. FIC SEATTLE |
Sonic Boom! The History of Northwest Rock: From Louie Louie to Smells Like Teen Spirit
In this epic exploration of the Pacific Northwest's esteemed garage rock traditions, Peter Blecha, Seattle's "rock 'n' roll archaeologist," skillfully weaves together the untold tales behind the rise of the region's early dance halls, recording studios, record labels, radio stations, and 1950s rockabilly, RandB, and doo-wop groups. The result is a compelling saga about an isolated region of America that, against all odds, managed to win global acclaim by stubbornly making music merely to satisfy its own provincial pop needs.

The Most Beautiful Villages and Towns of the Pacific Northwest
A tour in words and photographs of the picturesque small towns of Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia— their architectural treasures, charming inns, quaint main streets, and magnificent scenery.
What is the allure of the Pacific Northwest? Centuries ago it was the gifts of nature that brought the explorers, fur traders, and pioneers. Today Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia still draw visitors to the sparkling coves and waterways, pristine mountains, and broad beaches— and they charm them with artful towns and spirited communities. |

Legal Resources Accounting Releases
Discriminatory Employment Practices
Question: What is the proper accounting treatment for expenditures made by the utility, resulting from employment practices that were found to be discriminatory by a judicial or administrative decree or that were the result of a compromise settlement or consent decree?
- fines or penalties related to judicial or administrative decree imposed by governmental authorities,
- legal fees reimbursed to the plaintiffs,
- in-house and outside legal costs in unsuccessful defense against charges of discriminatory practices,
- damage awards to plaintiffs,
- duplicate labor cost such as back pay, bonus or other pay awards to plaintiffs where other employees have already been paid by the utility for prior services, and
- cost of reporting, training and recruiting undertaken as a result of a court order, administrative decree or settlement which are in addition to those which otherwise would be incurred to assure continuing equal employment opportunity.
- Fines or penalties are to be recorded in Account 426.3, Penalties, and all other costs are to be recorded in Account 426.5, Other deductions.
Answer: The Uniform System of Accounts provides that all charges to utility operating expense accounts must be just and reasonable. Expenditures of the nature mentioned above that can be readily identified and quantified should not be considered as just and reasonable charges to utility operations and should be classified to the appropriate nonoperating expense accounts.
Types of expenditures usually related to discriminatory employment practices may include but are not limited to, the following:

WESTconsin Credit Union Reloadable Visa® Card Frequently Asked Questions
Who can order or use the Card?
Our Reloadable Visa Card can be purchased by a WESTconsin Credit Union member in good standing. The individual purchasing the Card is defined as the primary cardholder.
How do I get a Reloadable Card?
Visit your local office to purchase a Reloadable Card. There are two types of Reloadable Cards. Personalized Cards have your name embossed on the Card and will be mailed directly to your home. Non-personalized Cards are not embossed with your name and are available for immediate purchase.
What is the fee per card for purchasing a Reloadable Card?
The fee is based on your Membership Value Pricing status: $8 for Basic, $5 for Silver, and $3 for Gold.
How does a Reloadable Card work?
It's a prepaid Reloadable Visa debit Card and can be used anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted. The Reloadable Card is not affiliated with your checking or savings account. The Reloadable Card allows you to access only the amount funded on the Card. The purchase amount is automatically deducted from the Card.
How does the Secondary Card work?
Primary cardholders can purchase up to four Secondary Cards for family members or traveling companions. The Card is directly linked to the Primary Card. All Cards share the available balance and transaction limits, however the Secondary Card will only be able to access their own transaction records and will not be able to load funds to the Card. The fee to purchase a Secondary Card is $3.00 per Card.
Are there any monthly fees?
Fees are waived the first twelve months. After twelve months, a $2.50 monthly maintenance fee will be assessed.
How do I know the balance on my Reloadable Card?
Click here to check your balance. You should keep track of your balance to know how much you have spent.
Are there transaction limits?
Purchase transactions and cash advances are limited to the balance remaining on your Card. ATM withdrawals are limited to $510 in withdrawals per day.
Can I purchase a Reloadable Visa Card as a gift?
No, Reloadable Visa Cards cannot be given as a gift. They are for your own personal use.
How do I activate and register my Reloadable Card?
Activate and register your Card by clicking here or calling (866) 760-3156. Once activated, you may begin using your Card. Non-Personalized Cards are activated upon load but it is recommended you still register your Card.
How do I obtain my PIN?
To obtain a PIN you may call toll-free (866) 760-3156. A system generated PIN will be automatically spoken after your card is activated and you'll be given the opportunity to select a new PIN by phone if you choose. Once you have your assigned PIN number, you may go online and change it at any time.
What do I do if I've entered an incorrect PIN and my Card won't work anymore?
After 3 invalid PIN attempts, your Card will be locked for 24 hours. It will automatically reset to an active status at the end of the 24 hours. Your Card cannot be manually reset.
Can I reload the Card?
Yes, you can add value of $20 up to $2,500. The primary cardholder can click here to reload using a WESTCheck debit card or WESTconsin Visa credit card. You may also call (800) 924-0022 or visit your local office to apply funds from your savings or checking account. The value will then be added to the Card balance. Funds may not be available for immediate use after you have initiated the load/reload.
Are there reload limits?
Yes, there are limits to the number of reloads. You can reload your Personalized Reloadable Card a maximum of 3 times every 7 days. The Non-Personalized Reloadable Card can be loaded a maximum of 4 times.
What do I do if I have a Non-Personalized Reloadable Card and I've reached the 4-load limit?
You can continue to make purchases using your old Card until the balance has been depleted. If you choose, a new Personalized Reloadable Card can be ordered.
What do I do if a merchant asks me "Debit" or "Credit"?
You should choose "Credit." If swiping your Card through a terminal, always press the "Credit" button, or tell the cashier you would like to sign for the purchase.
What if the item I want to purchase costs more than the value on my Card?
To make a purchase greater than the balance on your Card, you will need to use another payment method - cash, check, credit card or debit card - to cover the difference. Tell the cashier the amount to deduct from your Card and how much you will pay with the other method. We do not guarantee the establishment will fulfill this request.
What happens if I need to return an item?
Each merchant location has its own return policies so you will need to check with the merchant.
What if the purchase is denied?
If a decline occurs, the Card's available balance may be less than the purchase amount. Some merchants preauthorize for an amount slightly higher than your actual transaction to ensure sufficient funds for tips or incidental expenses. This amount is "held" until the transaction settles to your Reloadable Card. Only the amount you sign for will ultimately be deducted from your Card. Use of the Card at automated fuel dispensers may require a minimum balance. When making a purchase by phone, mail or online, the account information you provide must be the same account information as when you registered your Card; a difference may lead to a declined authorization.
Can the Card ever have a negative balance?
Any authorization request that is greater than the Card's available balance will be declined. However, there can be times when a Visa merchant puts an item through without prior authorization. If this occurs, the cardholder will be required to reload funds onto the Card to cover the negative amount. If you do not initiate the reload, we reserve the right to apply funds in any of your accounts with us to your Card to cover the negative amount.
Who should I contact if my Reloadable Visa Card is lost or stolen?
Immediately report a lost or stolen card by calling (866) 760-3156. A replacement card can be issued and any available balance transferred to a new card, less applicable fees.
Can I put a stop payment on a purchase I made with the Card?
No, it is not possible to stop payment on a purchase after the Card has been presented for payment.
Who should I contact for a transaction error?
Click here to login to the Reloadable Card website and then download a dispute form and complete the transaction information or you can call Customer Service at (866) 760-3156.
How do I find an ATM when I travel - especially overseas?
Use the ATM locator found at visa.com for participating Visa ATMs both domestic and abroad.
What is the exchange rate when I get to another country?
Purchases and cash advances, including ATM withdrawals, made with your Card in foreign countries and foreign currencies will be charged to your account in U.S. dollars. The conversion to U.S. dollars will be made in accordance with Visa operating regulations. Visa charges WESTconsin Credit Union a 1% International Service Assessment fee for each foreign country transaction, which will be added onto the cost of the foreign transaction and charged to the balance on your Card.
CALL-24 account access-Menomonie: (715) 232-7300 Elsewhere: (888) 928-2255 To report a lost/stolen debit or credit card: (800) 449-7728

Clinton with the president. Photo by Annie Leibovitz for VogueThere's an in-depth interview with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the new issue of Vogue and--though we haven't always been the former senator's biggest fans--in this story, we were mightily impressed. Clinton comes across as a woman who's strong, independent, well-prepared, fair, deeply knowledgeable, thoughtful, and good at her job. Much of the article takes place behind the scenes, as writer Jonathan Van Meter follows Clinton through last summer's weeks-long tour of Africa. The result is a fascinating, West Wing-ian read, a window into the lives of high level public officials abroad. But it's also worth picking up for Clinton herself, who seems a very different, more genuine, relaxed, and candid politician than the one who was dodging fake bullets and fighting dirty with Obama just last year.
Here, a few of the most compelling quotes from this new and improved Hillary, whom Bill Clinton calls "the best public servant our family has produced":
On why she's such an inspirational figure to so many women:
"Well, I don't really understand it myself. But it may in part be because people feel like they know me; they have watched me on the world scene for seventeen years now. They've seen my ups and my downs." She lets out a dark little chuckle. "They've seen my best and my worst. They've seen my public and my private-they've seen everything...So many women feel like I'm on their side... And I think it's also that, whether I am meant to or not, I challenge assumptions about women. I do make some people uncomfortable, which I'm well aware of, but that's just part of coming to grips with what I believe is still one of the most important pieces of unfinished business in human history-empowering women to be able to stand up for themselves."
On how being a Clinton helps her do her job:
"It helps enormously. Around the world, people will say, 'I remember when your husband came' or 'We haven't really made any progress since your husband was here.' There's just a lot of very positive feedback. It's a great door opener. And I have political experience that enables me to look at a leader and say, 'I understand your political problems. I've been in politics. I've had to run for election.' So when a leader tells me that he can't do something because a certain group wouldn't like it, I say, 'But that's what politics is about.' Look at what President Obama did. He organized from the grass roots; he created a political organization. That's what you have to do."
On being told she's "warmer" than former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice:
"I don't know," she says with a look of distaste at the whole concept. "I think it's important in these jobs to be yourself."
On the now famous "My husband is not secretary of state, I am!" outburst:
"Well, it was a very aggressive mood in that auditorium," she said, surprising me. "The looks on people's faces. . .But on the one hand, I got it because they are so despairing. On the other hand, I just sensed a real disappointment in everybody, including the United States. Forget it. There's nothing anybody can do. Why are you even here? It was a very intense experience." I tell her that the question from the student made me cringe. "I'll tell you, it made me cringe. As you saw. And the actual text of the question was pretty clear in the way it was translated. But, you know, it was just one of those moments."
On how she almost turned down the SOS job:
"I was stunned after the election when President Obama asked me to consider this...I was very unconvinced. I did not think it was the right thing to do. I didn't want to do it. I just really had a lot of doubts and I kept suggesting other people...But then a friend of mine called me and basically said 'How would you have felt if you'd been elected and you'd called him and asked him to do this?' And that really made a big impression on me. How do you say no? And so...I said yes. And here I am."

One person has been taken to a hospital after a car that person was in was driven off the right side of Interstate 675 north on Thursday afternoon, continued down an embankment and ended up on its top.
Traffic on I-675 north and south has returned to normal flow at 6:30 p.m. as crash investigators with the Ohio Highway Patrol continue their on-scene investigation.
When the accident occurred at about 4:25 p.m., traffic backed up or was moving very slowly because of the accident that occurred just before the Miamisburg Centerville Road exit.
The condition of the person taken to a hospital was not immediately available.

Seldom these days do I have anything good to say about any legislator anywhere. That's especially true with tax day so close. A big shout out to the IRS for the three extra days to hang on to my own money this year … whoooo hooooo!!!
So it's a bit surprising to be blogging about a couple of good things some politicos did last week. First Representative Don Young, Republican Congressman of Alaska, showed good sense in turning down an award from the Humane Society of the United States. Young and his staff are astutely aware HSUS is nothing but a fraud trying to capitalize on the truly good work of others.
"HSUS are hypocrites, plain and simple, and I will not join them by accepting this award," said Representative Young. "Local animal shelters and humane societies do excellent work by caring for neglected and homeless animals, and through their spaying and neutering programs. This organization, however, has absolutely nothing to do with animal welfare. Instead they prey on the emotions of big-hearted Americans. They flash images of abused animals on our television screens to raise money that will eventually go to pay salaries and pensions, not to helping better the lives of these animals. HSUS runs anti-hunting and anti-trapping campaigns and are of the same cloth as PETA and other extremist organizations. I can only guess I was to receive this award due to my support of the Wildlife Without Borders program, which develops wildlife management and conservation efforts to maintain global species diversity. That program is true conservation; what this group wants is preservation. To accept this award would be supporting their manipulative ways and misguided agenda, and I want no part of that."
Next the Iowa Legislative Sportsmen's Caucus, led by Caucus Chairs, Sen. Dick Dearden and Rep. Rich Arnold, recently passed and Governor Terry Brandstad signed into law, legislation allowing dove hunting in Iowa. It's the first time Iowans will be able to legally hunt doves at home in more than a century.
"This is something that I've been very passionate about over the years, and I'm glad this day has finally come," said Dearden. "I think of the times that I've hunted with my sons and my grandson and my granddaughter and hopefully — if my oldest grandson gets going here — to have a great-grandchild to hunt with because I would like nothing more than to have four generations of us out hunting together."
The new law directs the Iowa Department of Natural Resources to set dates for a new dove season in Iowa. It's projected the economic impact of this law will attract approximately 20,000 dove hunters, create more than 90 jobs and provide $6.9 million to the state and local economies.
As much as it pains me to say it, "Nice job guys!"

I watched the movie last night. First Rose's mother got into a lifeboat but Rose ran away. She pretty much despised her mother.
I don't think he was quite as villanous as you see him. He was a millionaire who did not care much or at all for lesser people but he did love Rose and became increasingly frustrated by not being able to impress Rose with anything. She didn't even think the Titanic was very impressive. At the end it was all about jealousy and the fact that he had lost that pushed him over the edge. I think Cameron did a great job with the characters. She had to be going through something incredibly difficult to make her finally snap and give everything up.
Call me what you will but this movie still gets to me. Not just the, maybe, sappy love story but the reality of it as well.
There is so much that is amazing to me about it but the most incredible sequence to me is when the Titanic is finally going down. That moment when the ship breaks in half and the ass end settles back into the ocean and then gets pulled back up again and the people are dangling from railings and such and falling into the ocean and propellers and shit really blows me away.
The story of the Titanic deserved an epic movie and Cameron made just that. I built a model of the Titanic when I was a kid. It took me a couple of months to get done but I built it and painted it so painstakingly from pictures that I was pretty proud of it when it was completed.

But see, I don't see it as the story of Titanic. I see it as a half assed, fictional love story that takes place on the Titanic.

Then you obviously didn't pay attention to everything. What more about the Titanic and the events that led up to the sinking could Cameron have put in there? Everything that went wrong was shown although maybe there were some known miniscule things that didn't make it.
You also don't see the Captain as much of a character where I do.
It sounds like you wanted a documentary.

DSIC's analysis of the movie is rather damn great. He's said more than I ever could or care to.
I consider Titanic to be one of the worst movies ever made, and one of the most overblown without a doubt. I've tried three times to watch it and three times I left it pretty damn annoyed. The movie is too long, really boring, and well see DSIC's critique.
The whole sinking ship thing was also rather long and boring. They went to such lengths to manipulate us in to caring about these people that it became rather pathetic.
Oh the old couple are drowning together, oh the band continues to play music, people are falling in to the water, Leo is trying to save a little girl, and he ultimately gives up his life for Rose. Yawn.
I laughed on Attack of the Show when Kevin Pereira said, "Why couldn't they just share the door they were floating on? He goes on for a little while and then they switch."
It's funny, I remember reading a newspaper a year before this came to theaters where a critic predicted the movie would be a bomb at the box office. They even predicted it would be Cameron's biggest failure.
It's pretty funny to think about it now.

The band playing while the ship sunk is fact. I guess I just can't be objective about this movie since I've been in love with the Titanic since I was a kid. I don't think anyone could have done it better.

I like "Titanic", I think it's a good movie, but I never understood why so many people thought it was The Best Movie Ever. I can see how being a teenage girl in love with Leonardo DiCaprio would help, and having a Titanic obsession would also make sense (as would having a hard-on for James Cameron movies...), but all I could think after I saw it was "Pearl Harbor" - a two-hour love story with a nice half-hour of destruction at the end.
I prefer "TIEtanic".

The love story is secondary to me. It doesn't bother me. The movie is more about historical fact. Down to the stemware. Everything in it is accurate except, of course, for the love story obviously.

Dormant virus makes its painful return
Published on Wed, Jul 2, 2008 by
Anna Lillian Moser
Read More
Remember when you had the chicken pox and your parents assured you once you had them youd never get them again? Well, guess again. Herpes zoster, commonly known as shingles, is a painful mutation of the childhood ailment.
One of every three people will develop shingles in his or her lifetime and it generally affects men and women over age 50.
Like something out of Night of the Living Dead, the virus never actually goes away, lying dormant in the body for years. As a persons immune system weakens with age, though, it becomes harder and harder to fight off the virus, which leads to the infection.
Our bodies are able to suppress the infections, but usually not completely eradicate them, Dr. Thomas Locke of the Clallam County Health Department explains. Different herpes viruses lie dormant in the system, and as it turns out, the shingles virus lies dormant in nerve tissue. Thats what gives it its characteristic features.
And because it affects the bodys nervous system, the characteristic features of shingles are pain, pain and more pain.
People are absolutely miserable. Its one of the worse, most painful things you can get. Even the strongest painkillers dont do that good a job at controlling the pain well, Locke said.
According to Locke, the first sign of shingles is pain, followed by a rash that is very much like a chicken pox rash: red blisters. Shingles derives its name from the pattern the rash takes. Like the shingles on a roof, the blisters form lines along the infected nerves. Locke, however, says that half the time the rash isnt present, making shingles a complicated disease to diagnose.
Sometimes the intense pain of shingles without a visible rash leads on a long diagnostic odyssey, Locke said.
In the majority of cases, shingles subsides after only a few weeks, but 10 percent to 18 percent of the time the pain lasts for months, even years after the rash has disappeared.
Thats an example of where your bodys immune system is able to react enough to take care of the skin rash, but the activity of the virus in the nerve continues, Locke said, adding that if shingles infects facial nerves, it can lead to blindness or facial paralysis.
Until two years ago there was no way to prevent shingles, but today there is a vaccine. Available at area pharmacies, the vaccine is pricey, costing $165-$170 due to the fact that for the time being there is a limited number of available vaccines.
One of our hopes in public health is that as its used more widely the cost will come down. When they develop a mass market, they can afford to sell it at a much lower rate, Locke said.
The vaccine is only 50 percent effective, meaning that regardless of whether the vaccine is taken, theres still a possibility that the dormant virus will come to life. The vaccine also has a 60-percent to 65-percent success rate of preventing repeat infections and post-shingles pain.
While Locke recommends that men and women over 60 be vaccinated, he says its not for everyone. The vaccine is actually a super dose of live virus meant to stimulate the immune system, so people with very weakened immune systems such as cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy might not be able to take the vaccine.
The vaccines cost is sometimes covered under Medicare Part D, depending on who your prescription provider is. Prescriptions, under Medicare, are contracted out to private insurance providers.
Locke believes that even if individuals have a strong and healthy immune system, they still should be vaccinated.
The worse a disease is, the more benefit you get preventing it and thats what the situation is here. Even though it doesnt offer 100 percent immunity, it certainly reduces your risk, Locke said.
With a chicken pox vaccine having been introduced in 1996, Locke says that the country will see a steady drop in the number of shingles cases from generation to generation until perhaps this dormant virus will finally be dead.

Just Lycra, no insulation -perfect for 60+ degree days. (Same goes for the knee) warmer. Just a light layer of insulation. The arm grippers are sticky as well.

Member since
do you have to buy each arm / leg warmer separately?
Member since
Hi Bob - they are sold either as a pair of arm warmers or a pair of leg or knee warmers.
Great weight
Member since
I have owned these for almost a year. I originally bought them for summer protection, but I wore them most of the winter too and down to temps in the low 50's and they are great. I have since purchased the fleece lined castelli arm warmer and I still prefer these. I wear L jersey and got the L size and they are perfect.
Arm protection from the Sun
Member since
The white arm sleeves are just right to keep the sun from burning your arms mid-day. They are not noticeably warm on a hot day, yet do provide some warmth on a cool day. Also good for around town motorbike use, and other packable layering applications.
At first the medium size seemed too tight on the upper arm, but after a few rides they are a good fit and don't slip.
Great basic warmers for cool temps
Member since
These warmers are very basic and are designed only to take the edge off of cool temps in the 50s. Since this is what I got them for, they are perfect. Very snug and not too hot.
Good fit but too thin--useless
Member since
These fit great--I'm 6'2", if that helps--but they're so thin and lacking any insulation that they're basically useless. Seriously, they don't really provide any warmth against the cool air. Better off using nothing.

Perfect for chilly mornings in the late Spring or even to avoid sun in the Summer. I prefer lycra with no fleece insulation. Works very well and stays on arm throughout ride.
Member since
The white is "unisex" and the black is "mens". They fit slightly different from each other and is not advised to mix and match as it will appear uneven.
