Battle of the Bulbs brings energy efficiency to Ashland park
Visitors to Ashland's Central Park will notice a new glow emitting from the Winter Wonderland of Lights display this holiday season as the Battle of the Bulbs is under way.
The Battle of the Bulbs is an educational effort to raise awareness to the energy and cost savings of light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, compared to the traditional incandescent light bulbs. Partners in the project include Ashland Alliance, Winter Wonderland of Lights Planning Committee, Boyd County office of the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service and EcoMinds, an extension club focused on sustainable living and environmental issues.
"Extension's involvement in this project is with education -- teaching people the cost effectiveness of this and how it's good in terms of lowering our local consumption of electrical use. And it's good for the taxpayers because it's going to cost the city less," said Kyle Robinson, the county's extension agent for community and economic development.
There are many benefits in powering a display of this magnitude by LEDs. LEDs use 85 percent less energy than traditional bulbs, which translates into an 85 percent reduction in energy costs. Incandescent bulbs are made of glass and are easily broken during the installation and removal processes. LEDs are plastic and will not break as easily. They also have a 5-year bulb life. Many of the incandescent bulbs must be replaced at the end of the season.
"With an incandescent lamp, 90 percent of its energy consumption is for heat that goes nowhere. Only 10 percent of it is used for light," said Doug Keaton, electrical technology teacher at Russell High School, whose students are providing calculations for the project. "That's kind of hard to fathom until you put your hand around the light bulb and realize how much heat is being produced."
Area residents and holiday visitors will be able to see the energy savings firsthand as they take a train ride around the park or sip on some hot chocolate. The groups will have two identical light displays on exhibit. One will be powered by incandescent lights and the other by LEDs. Each will be hooked up to a meter that measures how many kilowatt hours each display is using.
"We have so many people that come in from outside of the area for this," said Matthew Perkins, a member of EcoMinds and the Winter Wonderland of Lights Planning Committee. "This will give those people an opportunity to see that we're doing some different and innovative things in Appalachia."
"We just want to show people little things they can do, and this is just the first step in that," said Jason Rhoton, an EcoMinds' member. "They can look at the displays and see and maybe it will inspire them to go out and buy some for their trees or home."
In addition to educating area residents and tourists about the benefits of LEDs, the groups eventually plan to switch all the light displays in Winter Wonderland of Lights to LEDs. Currently, only the newest displays are powered by LEDs. To accomplish this, the groups are asking for donations from the community. For $1 each, community members will be able to switch an incandescent light bulb to an LED.
Students at Russell and Ashland's Paul G. Blazer High School have taken the lead funding the project. Through various clubs at their schools, these students have donated enough money to completely switch the bulbs in two light displays each.
This project is the first of several environmental projects members of EcoMinds plan to work on in the tristate area. For more information on the group, upcoming events or ways to live more sustainably, visit EcoMinds' Web site at http://www.ecominds.ning.com.

SARATOGA SPRINGS -- From 8 to 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug 3., Saratoga PLAN and the Lake Lonely Improvement Association will host a hand-harvesting work day on Lake Lonely to control the invasive aquatic plant water chestnut.
Saratoga PLAN is working in partnership with the Lake Lonely Improvement Association and Saratoga National Golf Course to manage the water chestnut infestation on Lake Lonely.
Water chestnut is an aquatic invasive plant that was introduced to the Northeast in the late 1800s. It spreads rapidly by seed in shallow freshwater lakes and ponds, forming dense floating mats that can negatively impact the environment, economy and recreational use of the area. The inch-wide seeds grow under water and have four extremely sharp spines, which can injure swimmers and others on the lake.
Saratoga National Golf Course has completed two mechanical air boat harvests already this season. Hand-harvesting is done on the water by kayaks, canoes or rowboats in tight places where the mechanical harvester cannot reach. Saturday's effort will focus on the lake's eastern shore, and the public is invited to participate.
Saratoga PLAN is recruiting volunteers to help remove the floating water chestnut plants from the lake. Participants should dress to get wet and muddy and are asked to bring their own kayak or boat, life jacket, protective gloves, 5-gallon bucket with handle, sunscreen, hat and mosquito repellent.
PLAN and Association members will be on hand for guidance at the Lake Lonely Boat Livery, located at 378 Crescent Ave. and on the lake. Participants are asked to sign up by July 31 by calling Saratoga PLAN at 587-5554.
Saratoga PLAN is a nonprofit land trust that helps communities make long-term decisions for conserving the region as a great place to live, work, visit and farm. PLAN assists landowners with fulfilling their conservation goals for their land and provides stewardship for more than 3,500 acres of farmland, forest, natural habitat, trail corridors, historic places and water resources in Saratoga County.
For more information, go to www.saratogaplan. org or call 518-587-5554.

There could be unintended consequences of creating different categories of UCITS that could undermine the brand, according to fund associations responding to a discussion paper from the European Securities and Markets Authority into structured UCITS.
The Irish Funds Industry Association response to the ESMA consultation states that it does not support creating different types of categories of UCITS like 'complex' and 'non-complex'.
It states: "UCITS are well recognised for being transparent, diversified and well structured funds which insulate investors from many of the credit and other risks inherent in other financial product platforms.
"Given this, we are not supportive of the idea of creating categories of UCITS types, such as complex and non-complex. We believe that such a distinction will tarnish the overall brand reputation of UCITS and could jeopardise UCITS standing as the preeminent global fund product.
"The issue of complexity and risk is more nuanced than simply the...

(Part 2 ... apparently these messages are limited to 1000 characters, wtf?) Anyway, your physical sketchbook is supposed to be your private, personal space to learn and grow and make assloads of mistakes and embarrassing sketches. The concept of public sketchbooks at CA.org is actually a little weird, but it's fun sometimes to throw the better-looking crap up and have people poke at it. But if you're not liking the public scrutiny, hey, keep it private until you feel better about it. Assuming that's the issue, anyway. That's an interesting technique the girl taught you. Just learn things piecemeal? I've probably done that before. She's not on here, is she?
(Part 1) Awesome, you're alive. But Jesus, a mental breakdown? That sounds hardcore. Hmm. What's worrying you about drawing? Are you paranoid about posting stuff on here because you're worried it's not coming out as good as you'd like? You could try keeping most of your sketchbook work to yourself for a while, and only post stuff you feel comfortable posting. That's what I usually do myself. A lot of my crap doesn't come out very good, and I do a lot of repetition until by chance I get something right. I actually did a post in my SB a couple days back where I put up a lot of those things, unfiltered. I keep cringing looking at it, but I'll leave it up.
Hey man, you were lurking on the 9th super early in the morning which worries me the most, let us know you're safe at least!
Hey man. I haven't seen you around here in a while. I know you were going through some stuff earlier which was keeping you from drawing. I hope that post in my SB that you responded to didn't turn you off drawing even more. I'd hate to be even a slight bit responsible for you losing your enthusiasm, if that's what's going on. Hope everything's all right. We all go through our ruts, but they usually end.
Hey, thanks for the advice, but not sure what you mean: "Basically, her approach was to do imaginative pieces where she would apply something she really liked from a picture." Can you give me an example?
Haha ... hey, thanks for checking. I'm all right. I'm going through a round of artistic self-doubt. It's very common for me, but it's a big one this time. I think I'll pull through. I just need time to think. And I needed a break anyway. I'll be back. Honestly, though, I'm not sure realism is for me, so I dunno how much time I want to spend learning it. It feels like so much work to accomplish something that I'm not all that interested in accomplishing in the first place. It feels like I was having way more fun doing cartoony crap before I joined up here. I'll get back to it, though. I still need to practice drawing, regardless of whether I'm going to do realism or not. It's still a skill I have to build, regardless of the style I go forward with. You should definitely keep practicing, though.
Oh yeah, you know how it is. I think we all come here for some sort of peer pressure. So might as well use it, on you! lolz. Anyways, life happens. I'm sorry to hear it's happening to you. Maybe of the worst part of it you find some sort of emotion or lesson that you can apply artistically. Just keep your head up!
Hey bro, whens the next update? You cool?
Rad, my very first CA.org amigo!, Cheers!
hey! sorry this is really late..i haven't been on in a while. I am going for Computer animation. but I suck! So i have to get better =) and am optimistic that I can get better...so I think I need to start posting again on CA.org. What do you think? How about you?

Ok so I go to device manager and realise that my card has disappeared? I try to update drivers but none seem to get my card back visible. System restore didn't do anything. If anyone can help me repairing this problem it would be much appreciated. I currently can not play any games because only the intel gpu is working. Thanks for your time.
+The Catalyst control center is missing too
Updating Mobility drivers. As you can see by reading...you must get your drivers from the laptop manufacturer. Or usr Leshcat modded drivers.
Intel I7 960 @ 3.87ghz *Intel DX58SO *HIS HD6970 2gb *Corsair TX650M *2x4gb Corsair XMS3 *WD Black 1TB *Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit *Gateway HD2401 24" 2ms 1920x1200 ***Asus N71Jq laptop *Intel I7 720QM Processor *Mobility Radeon HD5730 1gb *8gb Ram *Windows 7 64bit
* A clear conscience is usually a sign of bad memory *
depending on your windows, u need to open the uninstall utility (add/remove programs or programs and features) and locate something like AMD catalyst control center. if its there. uninstall it using the express option (it removes everything including drivers) and reinstall latest drivers from your laptop manufacturers website

BOURBON — Journey's End Bar and Grill, 118 S. Main St., Bourbon, will sponsor the 35th annual Region 1 ABATE of Marshall County Spring Fever Motorcycle Swap Meet Sunday, April 10 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the National Guard Armory, 1220 W. Madison St., Plymouth.
PLYMOUTH — What has become a staple in the community, Saint Joseph Regional Medical Center/Plymouth's annual "Catch the Spirit" Gala, has made a remarkable difference for Marshall County residents. For example, in 2010, SJRMC's Plymouth campus provided services that assisted 3,361 patients and included free medical care and prescription medication assistance as well as transportation, mobile health care screenings and health fairs.
PLYMOUTH — Spring has finally arrived, though the temperatures continue to leave most of us skeptical. Along with the thaw loiters the promise and excitement of another carefree, barefoot summer to come. So, turn off all the electronic gadgets and push the kids in the direction of the door. Something as seemingly ordinary as spending the day outside, in the fresh air exploring, often turns out to be the day we can't wait to do again. Be sure to take advantage of all the exceptional programs Plymouth Centennial Park has to offer the community this summer.
PLYMOUTH — The United Way of Marshall County and the Marshall County Community Foundation announced today that their joint executive director, Jennifer Maddox, will leave her position on June 30, after serving more than four years in that role.
PLYMOUTH — A Plymouth man is dead after shooting himself in the head in the yard of his home on Union Road Monday afternoon. Police were called to the scene at 1:40 p.m. when a resident from the 5,000 block of Union Road called saying her neighbor was at her home, with blood on her, and was saying that her husband had a gun. When officers arrived at the scene John Nemeth came outside the home with a handgun, and while standing in the front yard, shot himself. Walkerton EMS transported him to Memorial Hospital, South Bend where he was pronounced dead.
Culver's Relay for Life will return for a fourth year, and organizers -- adult and student alike -- are hoping to continue the momentum from the first three events, which surpassed many expectations to raise more than $100,000 each year and place Culver on the map as one of the few school-hosted locations for the cancer-fighting event in the entire country. The success of past Relays has also drawn attention for the fact that much of the organizing, planning, and execution of the event is student-led.

Lady of the Lake
Lady of the Lake is the titular name of the ruler of Avalon in the Arthurian legend. She plays a pivotal role in many stories, including giving King Arthur his sword Excalibur, enchanting Merlin, and raising Lancelot after the death of his father.
Different writers and copyists give her name as Nimue, Viviane, Elaine, Niniane, Nivian, Nyneve, and Evienne, among other variations.[1]
In medieval literature[edit]
The Lancelot-Grail Cycle provides a backstory for the Lady of the Lake, "Viviane", in the prose Merlin section, which takes place before the Lancelot Proper, though it was written later. There, Viviane learns her magic from Merlin, who becomes enamored of her. She refuses to give him her love until he has taught her all his secrets, after which she uses her power to trap him either in the trunk of a tree or beneath a stone, depending on the story and author. Though Merlin, through his power of foresight knows beforehand that this will happen, he is unable to counteract Viviane because of the "truth" this ability of foresight holds. He decides to do nothing for his situation other than to continue to teach her his secrets until she takes the opportunity to entrap and entomb him in a tree, a stone or a cave.
The Post-Vulgate Cycle's second Lady of the Lake is called "Ninianne", and her story is nearly identical to the one in the Lancelot-Grail, though it adds her bestowal of Excalibur to Arthur. Sir Thomas Malory also uses both Ladies of the Lake in his Le Morte d'Arthur; he leaves the first one unnamed and calls the second one Nimue. Malory's original Lady is presented as an early benefactor of King Arthur who grants him Excalibur when his original sword is damaged. She is later beheaded by Sir Balin as a result of a kin feud between them (she blames him for the death of her brother and he blames her for the death of his mother) and a dispute over an enchanted sword.
Both characters appear in many other episodes of Malory's work. Each time the Lady reappears, it is at a pivotal moment of the episode, establishing the importance of her character within Arthurian literature, especially Le Morte d'Arthur. In that work, she transcends any notoriety attached to her character by aiding Arthur and other knights to succeed in their endeavors.[2] After enchanting Merlin, Malory's Nimue replaces him as Arthur's adviser. She becomes the lover and eventual wife of Sir Pelleas and mother to his son Guivret. After the Battle of Camlann, she reclaims Excalibur when it is thrown into the lake by Sir Bedivere. Nimue is one of the four queens who bear the wounded Arthur away to Avalon, a setting tied to the Lady of the Lake in some literary traditions.
Later uses[edit]
The Walter Scott poem and its musical settings[edit]
Walter Scott wrote an influential poem, The Lady of the Lake, in 1810, drawing on the romance of the legend, but with an entirely different story set around Loch Katrine in the Trossachs of Scotland. Scott's material furnished subject matter for La Donna del Lago, an opera by Gioachino Rossini which debuted in Naples in 1819. It was the first of a fashion for operas with Scottish settings and based on Scott's works, of which Gaetano Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor is the most familiar.
The three "Ellen songs" from Scott's poem were set to music by Franz Schubert (D. 837–D. 839 – "Ellens Gesang I",[3] "Ellens Gesang II",[4] and "Ellens Gesang III"[5]), although Schubert's music to Ellen's Third Song has become far more famous in its later adaptation, known as "Ave Maria".
Modern literature and media[edit]
Modern authors of Arthurian fiction adapt the Lady of the Lake legend in various ways, often using two or more bearers of the title. Alfred Tennyson adapted several stories of the Lady of the Lake for his poetic cycle Idylls of the King. He splits her into two characters; Viviane is a deceitful villain who ensnares Merlin, while the Lady of the Lake is a benevolent figure who raises Lancelot and gives Arthur his sword.
In the 1998 miniseries Merlin and its 2006 sequel Merlin's Apprentice, the characters of the Lady of the Lake and Nimue are separated, with the former being a goddess-like fae who is the twin sister of Queen Mab, and the latter being a noblewoman who is the object of Merlin's affections.
The BBC drama series Merlin also features two characters based on the Lady of the Lake. Nimueh serves as the primary antagonist of Series 1. The character has no connection to Merlin beyond his opposition to her plans, and her only connection to a lake is her use of a location called the Isle of the Blessed. The ninth episode of Series 2 is titled "The Lady Of The Lake", wherein a sorceress named Freya dies and vows to repay Merlin for his kindness to her. In the series 3 finale, Freya, now a water spirit, gives Excalibur to Merlin so that he can give it to Prince Arthur Pendragon. In the series 5 finale, which features the Battle of Camlann, a despondent Merlin casts the sword back into Lake Avalon, where a hand, presumably Freya's, catches it.
In BBC Radio 4's Afternoon Drama Pilgrim the antagonist Birdie (or Mrs Pleasance) is gradually revealled to be responsible for trapping Merlin ("The Drowned Mage") beneath a lake.[6] Her story draws on that of Nimue.
The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley takes the tradition of multiple Ladies one step further. In Bradley's works, both the Lady of the Lake and the Merlin are offices. The Lady of the Lake is the title of the ruling priestess of Avalon, and the Merlin is a Druid who has pledged his life to the protection of Britain. Various characters assume the title of the Lady, including Viviane, Niniane, Morgan le Fay (called "Morgaine" in this version), and Nimue, a sympathetic and tragic young priestess who falls in love with the Merlin but is duty bound to seduce and lure him to his death – following which she drowns herself. Even more Ladies of the Lake appear in Bradley's extended Avalon prequels.
Other authors choose to emphasize a single character. Nimue appears in T. H. White's The Once and Future King as a water nymph and Merlin's enchantress. True to the legend she traps Merlin in a cave, but Merlin does not convey it as negative, and even refers to it as a holiday. This interpretation is followed by Lerner and Loewe in the musical Camelot; Nimue lures Merlin away with the song "Follow Me".
Versions of the Lady (or Ladies) of the Lake appear in many other works of Arthurian fiction, including novels, films, television series, stage musicals, comics, and games. Though her identity may change, her role as a significant figure in the lives of both Arthur and Merlin remains consistent.
Vivienne is the Lady of the Lake in DC Comics, while Nimue is Madame Xanadu, her youngest sister, and their middle sister is Morgaine le Fey (given name, Morgana), and their surname is Inwudu. The Lady of the Lake has appeared in Hellblazer, Aquaman, and her sister's series.
The Lady of the Lake is featured in Marvel Comics in the stories of Captain Britain. Her real name is Niamh Chinn Oir and she is an inhabitant of Avalon.
In recent Hellboy stories, Nimue is a witch who seduced Merlin and stole his powers, sealing him – still alive – in a tomb. But without his help, she lost control of those powers and went mad. The other witches killed her, cut her body into pieces, and buried her. She has since returned as the Queen of Blood, to raise an army against man, but is opposed by Hellboy who possesses the sword Excalibur (And thus is technically king of England).
Mary Stewart, in "The Last Enchantment" (1979) radically recasts the story of Merlin and Niniane, completely removing the aspect of malicious seduction and treachery dominant in the traditional version. In this depiction Merlin takes Niniane on as an apprentice, with her at first disguised as a boy, and willingly teaches her his magic. When her identity as a woman is discovered, they fall in love despite their age difference. As he gives her the secrets of his psychic abilities and how to control them, he seems to lose them himself – which Merlin does not mind. In a depleted, weakened condition, he takes ill and falls into a coma, and is believed to be dead. Niniane has him buried within his "crystal cave", where he awakes some time later. He escapes after a few weeks, through a combination of chance luck and ingenious planning, and travels incognito to let Arthur know he is still alive. Niniane takes Merlin's place as the court wizard-seer, while Merlin retires to the crystal cave and lives a quiet and happy life as a hermit.
In Sonic and the Black Knight, The lady of the lake is portrayed by Amy Rose (Voiced by Lisa Ortiz). In the game, she tests Sonic's character to see if he is worthy of being a knight.
In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, slightly Northeast of Bleakwind Basin, there is a pond with a skeletal arm holding a leveled sword, which is a reference to the Lady in the Lake holding Excalibur.
Claimed locations of the Lake[edit]
A number of locations in Great Britain are traditionally associated with the Lady of the Lake's abode. They include Dozmary Pool, Llyn Llydaw, Llyn Ogwen, The Loe, Pomparles Bridge, Loch Arthur, and Aleines. In France, she is associated with the forest of Brocéliande.

Absolutely Great Card but check AGP Aperture size before installing drivers!Pros: Everything... even the 2D desktop looks more crisp and vivid then it did with my previous Radeon which was a top notch card circa 05. Others have commented on the pro's so I'll get to why I'm writing this... Cons: It was a bit tricky to get this to work because my Aperture size was set to 2mb for my previous card. My previous card also had much faster memory then the system DDR. As such using the AGP aperture slowed it down so I set it to the lowest setting possible which greatly improved the performance of my previous card. Other Thoughts: Love this card, my 8 year old P4 3.4 with 4GB RAM overclocked slightly to 3.6 with 1:1 CPU/RAM ratios still rocks for 95% of whatever I need to do and is a decent gaming machine too! I will be setting up a dual boot drive with Windows 7 and if the system still works as good as it does now I'll keep using it! 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
GREAT CARD!Pros: A fast AGP card. If you want to get more life out of your AMD XP or Pent4, this is the way to go. I just now upgraded my daughters computer because the processor failed, not because of the card. Gave me an extra 3 years out of her computer! Cons: It's AGP, so it will not be able to go into a modern machine when you do upgrade the entire box. Other Thoughts: I am not sure what anyone could complain about. There ARE drivers for XP, Win7 and Win8 - and they come straight from AMD, so no problems. I am using this card in a server box now - just installed win 7 pro again - and of course no problems. If they ever get the card in again, and you are not ready to spend hundreds on a completely new box - this is the way to go! 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Awesome for AGPPros: 320 streaming cores and DX 10 support for AGP. Cons: Had to do a fresh install of Xp pro to get this card to work. I tried 4 times to install just by removing old nvidia driver and installing the new drivers from the CD or the latest from the AMD website , nothing work and my system would crash to blue screens while gaming. You must also disable HD audio from the device manager . But if you want to keep your old system a while longer you must do a fresh install of the OS. It maybe a whole other story with Vista or Windows 7-8. Other Thoughts: This card let you play Crysis warhead and Crysis II just great in Med setting... Thank you AMD for giving AGP a small lease on life with our older systems. This card replaced my Nvidia 7950 GT (agp) . The old card could not play those games. Did you find this review helpful? |
Still going strong...Pros: Solid performer in pretty much anything I really threw at it, allows OC'ing, doesn't seem to make much noise. Somehow it still survives after over a year of heavy use and being in a home with cats ans smokers, so clearly the heatsink does its job lol Cons: Wish it was cheaper. Just found a 3.6GHz P4 cpu online for 12 bucks and the mobo's can be had for maybe $40 online, if not free by the curb on appliance pickup day. Realy hope it might let me get away with GTA IV on lowest settings, but thats about all I couldn't play on it. I'd prefer to lug around a cheap old socket478 system to LANs than drag my main system Other Thoughts: There are those who say it wont work in a dell, however it worked flawlessly in a Dimension 4600 I built up for older XP games, and my coworker snagged it from me a few months ago and plays Diablo III on it and loves it for his needs.... go figure 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

New Life to Old PCPros: AGP Cons: The latest Catalyst software does not recognize this graphics card. Other Thoughts: For about $120 I do not have to replace my 8+year old computer. Seems like good value to me since everything works fine. 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Pros: Runs quiet Cons: Does not do 1080p. I tried watching youtube, vudu ect,ect. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
AGP Support HardwarePros: Own 5 of these and all work very well with AMD Overdrive. Cons: None really. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Pros: Excellent speed for an AGP card; able to play most games circa 2010 and back at high-very high. HDMI support works great. Good life-span, works as good now as it did new. Cons: Several Win7 driver support issues. You might be able to find working drivers if you dig for a bit, but the ones provided on the disk and on AMD's website don't seem to support aero as well as they should. Anymore you'd be better off upgrading as it doesn't match up to today's standards but great if you feel like beefing up an old WinXP AGP 8x build.

Chinqua Penn Estate Seized In Bankruptcy Case
Filed under: Estates
BusinessWeek quotes bankruptcy examiner Gene Tarr who said in a court filing that "squandered and wasted corporate assets and otherwise breached his fiduciary duties of loyalty" and he asked a bankruptcy judge to force Phelps to give back at least $8.1 million he used to buy Chinqua-Penn, two corporate jets, cigar-manufacturing equipment, a $142,000 Maserati and other assets. The Winston-Salem Journal details the history of the Chinqua Penn Plantation. It was closed in 1991, reopened in 1995 for meetings and weddings, closed again in 2002 and then reopened under Phelps' ownership hosting weddings, meeting and events like Great Gatsby day. The property is famous for its beautiful flowering gardens. Tickets to tour the estate sell for $20. The estate is closed to the public until Saturday morning.

The Broncos came away with points on each of their first three possessions. With 11:59 left in the second quarter, they began their fourth drive.
On second down, quarterback Peyton Manning rolled to his left and was unable to find one of his initial looks. He threw the ball after rolling almost all the way to the side line, and wide receiver Andre Caldwell made a diving catch for an 18-yard gain.
Running back Knowshon Moreno ran it on the next three plays and gained 20 yards. Ronnie Hillman then picked up 6.
On the next play, Manning threw for wide receiver Matthew Willis in the end zone, but defensive back Phillip Adams laid out and made a diving interception.
The pick gave Oakland possession on its own 20 after the touchback.
The Raiders offense moved out to midfield with a 9-yard run by Darren McFadden, a 15-yard completion to Darrius Heyward-Bey and a 13-yarder to Rod Streater.
Oakland crossed midfield on a 10-yard first-down connection from quarterback Carson Palmer to wideout Demaryius Moore, who became the third Oakland receiver to catch a first-down pass on the possession.
Two plays later, Palmer went back to Streater for another first down to the Denver 26-yard line.
The next two plays were each 6-yard completions, one to Moore and one to McFadden to set Oakland up with a first down inside the red zone.
Facing a third-and-2 from 6-yard line, the Raiders took a timeout with 2:06 remaining in the half.
Coming out of the break, the Raiders lined up in a shotgun formation. Palmer faked a quick pass to his right and then hit McFadden to his left, who had a clear path to the end zone for a score.
The extra point made it 13-7 Broncos. Denver will take over inside the two-minute mark with three timeouts remaining.

We don't know about you, but if we had three beauty wishes, we'd go for killer cheekbones, glowing skin, and great lighting wherever we went. Since our resident genie seems to have gone missing, we rely on wonderous products instead. A perpetual award winner, Benefit's High Beam subtly highlights and enhances your features — a necessity when you want to draw a little extra attention.
Really great for conturing and stays on really well. Does not leave my skin feeling gross or weird either! Love this stuff and the bottle lasts a long time too.
The two benefit products I can NOT live without - High Beam and Benetint. I just dab it on my cheekbones, eyelids and color bone before a night out and I glow!!
I've had awful dark circles for as long as I can remember, and no matter what what I used to cover them, this is the only thing I've found that can distract from them completely!
This stuff is wonderful!! I put it on my cheek bones and it gives you that dewey glow! It looks so natural and blends in wonderfully. And it lasts forever! Definitely one of Benefit's best products.
I love this for every day use and apply more heavily at night for an added shimmery effect. Sometimes I blend it into my tinted BB cream for an all-over dewey look. Looks good on everyone!
Great highlighter, I use it quite often. Much better than powder variety. A little goes a long way. The sample has lasted me almost a month.
I'm a pretty big fan of benefit. I really like Watts up for a nighttime highlighter, but the high beam is cool because the fluidity gives you a lot more control over exactly how much you're applying. Also a little goes a long way so it lasts forever!
I am seriously so in love with this highlighter. I've been trying to go beyond my usual mascara and lip gloss routine, and this is the perfect touch. It makes my very fair skin look warm and healthy when I put it right above my cheekbones up to my brow line. It seems like it will last forever too as I only have to use a few dots each time.
Great for all skin tones, very natural looking satin finish. I gave four stars instead of five because I think a cream would be easier to apply than a liquid. Will purchase again.
This highlighter is easy to use and looks great. I put a little dab and blend it on to my check bones and brow bones.

The Wrong Definition Of "Literally" Is Literally Going In The Dictionary
This is figuratively the worst thing ever. posted on
1. "Literally" technically means "without exaggeration," as in "this thing ACTUALLY happened."
2. But these days some people use it just for emphasis.
5. Wrong:
7. But since more and more people are using the wrong "literally," dictionaries are starting to add the wrong definition to their entries for "literally."
Like the Oxford Dictionary.
9. And even Google!!
10. Is this a brave new world where we can use "literally" as a mere intensifier?
11. Or should we try to keep "literally" literally the same?

Well do ya? I don't :P
Well do ya? I don't :P
Oh man, this is one of the fics that instantly hits you with feelings. I won't spoil what happens, but it's fast and intense. This fic is a short, one-shot. Give it a read.
Yes. People saying Santa isn't real is all just a big government conspiracy to blind us from the truth. The people shall see through the fog of the government's conspiracy in due time. Then we shall give Santa a life without fear of governnment persecution, where he can give presents to all the good boys and girls without having the reindeer look out for anti-aircraft missiles.
There is no reason to beleive that a big bearded guy who lives in the North Pole and flies around the whole world in one night and delivers presents to all the good boys and girls every year on a sleigh driven by flying reindeer does not exist.
I believe in Santa Claus in the metaphorical sense—an embodiment of the holiday spirit. Do I believe there's actually a man to go with the legend? That would hardly be logical—the surrounding folklore defies even present-day technology to an unrealistic degree, let alone the technology from the days of the legend's initial conception.
Unless, as the above poster postulates, there is in fact some sort of conspiracy concealing such advanced technology from the masses. In which case it's perfectly reasonable to assume that Santa Claus is some kind of brilliant temporal-astrophysicist or....something.
YouTube projects advertised are in early development and subject to change.
Uh, everyone knows that he's fake. He's just a made-up fictional character that is made to give the kids a reason to get more presents. However, SAINT NICHOLAS is real. I believe in the actual man, not the fake, morbid obese, character.
Baby I'm not moving on, I'll love you long after you're gone...

Ever hear about the dyslexic devil worshiper?
He sold his soul to Santa!
That's nice.
Santa is a time traveler. Christmas is really a year long process for Santa but since he's time traveling it takes place in one night on this temporal plane.
Considering I woke up one day as a kid and learned the truth... it killed Christmas for me for about ten minutes. Then I realized I'd still get my video games and legos and toys. Then it was fine.

I think this thread would be more fun if people talked about when they found out Santa wasn't real.
When I was a kid I found out because my mom mixed up presents and one was supposed to go to my sister and went to me instead and vice-versa. So then she told us Santa wasn't real so she could switch them. I then promptly told all the little kids at after-school daycare because I felt like they HAD TO KNOW THE TRUTH and got in trouble, hahaha.

Very nice piece of furniture and holds my 42" TV plus components easily. Easy to assemble the cabinet with the exception of the doors. Directions for the hinges were difficult and took extra assembly time to figure out.

This piece of furniture was easy to assemble, but it did take some time to be sure to do it right.Beautiful piece that totally can support the weight of the 50" Plasma TV, plus has ample room for storing cable box, stereo receiver and CD's & DVD's.All at a bargain price! Definately would buy another if needed.
Nice stand, overall a good experiance
By SodaFountain
from Southwest Michigan
About Me Bargain Hunter, Practical
When we bought a new flat panel TV, we needed a new stand as the TV would not fit in the old one. I remember using 'DIY assembled furniture' when I got out of college and was leary of this to say the least. My wife wanted to look at them so we did. There is a Sauder outlet near us, so we went and looked at the item in person. The piece fit together well and it seemed sturdy, so we bought it. The instructions are clear and it was simple to put togther with one issue. One of the pieces had some holes drilled in the wrong side. I called the manufacturer and recieved quick and helpful response. They sent the part I needed right away and included and connectors I might need. Overall I am pleased with this and will definitely consider sauder when looking in the future!

With the mayoral elections coming up, let's take a quick look at the candidates. Boris has a mad middle name (de Pfeffel), is charismatic because he knows how to work the press, and swiped all Ken's credit for getting London cycling. Nothing sticks to the old Etonian and he's notable by his absence as much as his profile. But there have been some visible improvements to the city under his reign, with a number of good new buildings commissioned and some seriously bad ones. Red buses are coming back, at a huge cost.
One of the good things about Ken Livingstone's tenure as Mayor was that he changed how we thought about traffic in the city. The majority of the population is on foot, so why should it always bow to private vehicles? He realised that in one area, Brixton, something like 95% of the population was walking and just 5% driving – and most of those were passing through to get to somewhere else – so a subtle redressing of the balance occurred. That he mainly did it without upsetting anyone was a miracle. On a local level, he built us a park and then saved it from developers. Hands-on but will upset Tories who live in the country but insist on going on about London.
Brian Paddick is the outsider. The former Met officer has made some mistakes – remember the Lambeth spliffs? But he's hot on law and order, appeals to all ages and, being gay, is gay-friendly. Yet – speaking as someone who has met him – he struck me as very buttoned-down, hard to warm to and a bit too uptight for London.
It'll be Boris who gets in, of course – Londoners like slightly mad people who use Latin words in daily conversation. He works the system shamelessly, but is a sartorial embarrassment.
See what I did there? This is about as much information as you get in our London press about the candidates – more actually – most of which major on sex lives, haircuts and likeability. Very little about policies, spending, achievements or anything important.
