Comments about Bella Vita Mila (Women's):
Since this was a new style listed in the catalog there was no reviews but I decided to give them a try. I wear 10 N and in most brands the narrow is OK even though the heel size is usually a little loose, but I can add a shoe insert and that will adjust the fit. Not so with these shoes. I added a liner, additional heel liner, additional arch liner but to no avail. I couldn't even keep the shoe on my foot while walking in my house. They had to go back. The shoes is cute and stylish but the sizing is all wrong.

I never stopped hoping for a new release of PS2.0.
If I go to this page (download page):
I see that I am the only person on this world, using PS2.0, is it right? The page was never passed though the QA because I can't see "I Acceppt" button.
At beginning of this thread, I found a bug and I reported not only the bug but also the line of the PS-javascript. In 5 months I never get a reply (only from isalento).

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This climb starts in a nice left facing corner with a finger sized crack. About 30 feet up you can get a rest at the large horizontal break. After the horizontal break, continue up the corner with fragile rock and small gear until you get to the base of the roof. Place some gear and go right out the roof using underclings and some small footholds. Once at the end of the roof pull into steep hand jams, and crank your way to the anchor. This route would be really sick if it had more traffic.
This route is in the middle of the cliff at the area known as Midway.
One set of nuts and a double set of cams from the smallest you've got to #2 camalots, and 1 #3. I placed one RP so bring some of those.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSWV American Posts Graphic Explaining Pressure Zones, Lifting Of Bans Process
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Jan. 14, 2014 6:03 PM EST
Updated: Jan. 14, 2014 6:13 PM EST
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Jeff Morris) -- West Virginia American Water has posted a graphic on its website explaining pressure zones and the process it has gone through in the lifting of the bans.
According to the graphic, multiple water tests are being collected in every pressure zone, and the samples must be analyzed to verify that they meet acceptable levels. The water company said it needs to confirm acceptable results within each pressure zone before the do-not-use ban can be lifted, which determines the sequence and location of the lift areas.
The basis for this process is the system's pressure zones, which encompass the local elevations, flow of water, pumping and storage capacity and related factors. The Kanawha Valley water system is the largest and most complex in the state, comprising about 175 pressure zones across 1,700 miles of pipe spanning 3,000 square miles, the water company said.

I made this cake for a family birthday party. Man, was it easy to make! I could make the cake portion the day before & then finish it up the next morning with ease. Everyone loved it including me. I don't eat a lot of sweets but this I could keep eating! I don't think I have ever had everyone rave about a cake I've made like this one & I've made a few cakes in my day. I loved this one so much, I had to look the recipe up again because I'm making it for a friend's party. Thanks Paula!

Just read the banned substance bullshit...tired of fighters and athletes with this nonsense. At the same time, I love it, because it forces fighters to be justified when they ask for random testing...even if selfish shitty fans dont care.
I say they should let the fight go on, and make Morales come down to 138. LOL. What an ass, why would he even consider a banned substance. Bitch, get on an aerobics program in between fights and lose weight the right way.
Its sad that I have to say this about one of my favorite fighters, but seriously, if you can't compete...take a seat. Period

Sarah + Craig post wedding shoot
My husband and I were married last December in Sydney, Australia and our favourite photographer was not able to attend. So when we returned to frigid Toronto, Ontario, where we live, we did a little shoot out on frozen Lake Ontario, wearing our wedding gear (as well as vintage bear fur stole and warmer boots
The photographer was Matt O'Sullivan who I believe is one of the best emerging wedding photographers in our city, growing his business from his amazing street photography work: http://thenarrative.net/

Where is the money? That is the question from Chesterfield parents who say they forked over hundreds of dollars for a full year of taekwondo classes for their kids. The business is now closed.
Ultimate Champions Taekwondo along Midlothian Turnpike just opened this spring.
Parents say they received a Facebook message from school master Joshua Kim on June 17th. He urged them to attend a "highly important" school meeting.
"Yes," said a parent who was too nervous to be identified. "He told us all that he needed 20 parents to give him 300 dollars."
Parents say Kim was essentially asking them to help him keep the business open.
'"Right," said one of the parents who attended the meeting. "And one of the parents said we are not stockholders here. Why would we invest in your company?"
Kim's studio made news earlier this year for improperly disposing of documents. We went back to the location this week and found a note on the door...business closed. We spoke to a family who says they just lost $700. They paid for a full year of lessons.
"We feel conned," said the parent. "The best way to explain it is he is a very good con artist."
We contacted Mr. Kim. He says he plans to re-open.
"We are looking into everything to get the school open and running on Monday," said Mr. Kim. "It will be either that location or I have already reserved a second location in case it takes longer."
Mr. Kim is also facing legal troubles with the property owner.
"Mr. Kim has been behind on rent for some time," said attorney Stewart Simon. "Harding and Associates went to court and the court granted possession. Mr. Kim voluntarily turned over the key to Harding and Associates. I am not aware that any arrangements have been made for Mr. Kim retaking possession."

This college ranking report may interest both you and your teenagers as they start looking at where they want to go to college.
Colleges have kicked it up and some are now offering top notch dining experiences and we've got the best of the best right here for you.
The Daily Meal website pulled together the top college dining options nationwide, ranking 2,000 four-year college and universities that went above and beyond the simple meal plan
They came up with a list of the 60 top colleges for the most delicious and nutritious offerings. Let's look at the top ten:
1. Bowden College, Maine
2. Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri
3. Virginia Tech, Virginia
4. Emory University, Georgia
5. UCLA, California
6. Cornell University, New York
7. UMASS Amherst, Massachusetts
8. Kennesaw State University, Georgia
9. Tufts University, Massachusetts
10. Yale University, Connecticut
These schools were judged on how healthy their offerings were, and if those meals were made in house and grown locally accessibility and services like hours the food was available events and nutritional education, did the college engage students with nutritional food-centered events? and student feedback.
They were also judged on the "x" factor something unique and creative that differentiates the schools dining. Now what made Bowden college in Maine take the top ranking? Besides having what the survey considered good food the school served vegetables grown in their own organic garden to students.

Uncovering Europe's best budget hotels since 2001.
Home > Travel Blog > Airlines >
A few months ago, we were waiting with bated breath for launch announcements from Fly For Beans, a new Cardiff-based low-cost carrier. It's not that we're impatient, exactly. It's more that we're wondering if the airline will ever actually lift off. FFB has the pre-launch marketing all sewn up. They've got a perky site full of typical low-cost carrier bravado, in a reddish hue not particularly easy on the eye, either—a sure sign that they've done their market research.
In a "bean blog" entry written by Director of Flight Operations Brian Bibb last week, we learned that the airline's route map will include one destination that Mr. Bibb himself, a pilot of two decades' standing, has never flown into. Where might said destination be? We've come across some completely unverifiable rumors suggesting that one or another airport in Bulgaria will appear on the FFB route map. We can only dream.
2 years on and this new company whicch placed such an emphasis on wantin to communicate has now gone very quiet indeed. Try clicking on accessing their latest blog entry as a good example of how things stand – you will get a "Forbidden" page – speaks volumes I think. Such a shame too as Cardiff could have done with such an airline an all those promised new routes – I guess we'll just have to keep crossing the bridge and flying from Bristol!
hello i was just woundering will this airline ever get off the ground. i was given a possision with flyforbeans and i am hopeing it will still stand if u do get off the ground. hope i get a reply soon from u on whats going on many thanks lee reynolds
Looks like this new low cost airline will NOT be taking off ?
In January 2010 advised that they will be updating site with details but now in 2011 the website has now been closed down
Like so many other start-up airlines, and start-up ferry companies, in Europe. It looks like Beanz Air has fallen into the garbage can of lost companies. I think I lost faith when I heard Captain Bipp of F4B on the radio explaing that his airline would fly into "Heathrow and other big airports in Scotland."

Squamous cell carcinoma is a common form of skin cancer that develops in the thin, flat squamous cells that make up the outer layer of the skin.
Squamous cell carcinoma is usually not life-threatening, though it can be aggressive in some cases. Untreated, squamous cell carcinoma can grow large or spread to other parts of your body, causing serious complications.
Most squamous cell carcinomas result from prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, either from sunlight or from tanning beds or lamps. Avoiding UV light helps reduce your risk of squamous cell carcinoma and other forms of skin cancer.
Squamous cell carcinoma most often occurs on sun-exposed skin, such as your scalp, the backs of your hands or your ears. But squamous cell carcinoma can occur anywhere on your body, including inside your mouth, on your anus and on your genitals.
Signs and symptoms of squamous cell carcinoma include:
When to see a doctor
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have a sore or scab that doesn't heal in about two months or a flat patch of scaly skin that won't go away.
Squamous cell carcinoma occurs when the flat, thin squamous cells in the outer layer of your skin develop errors in their DNA. Ordinarily, new cells push older cells toward your skin's surface, and the older cells die and are sloughed off. DNA errors disrupt this orderly pattern, causing cells to grow out of control and squamous cell carcinoma is the result.
Ultraviolet light and other potential causes
Much of the damage to DNA in skin cells results from ultraviolet (UV) radiation found in sunlight and in commercial tanning lamps and tanning beds. But sun exposure doesn't explain skin cancers that develop on skin not ordinarily exposed to sunlight. This indicates that other factors may contribute to your risk of skin cancer, such as being exposed to toxic substances or having a condition that weakens your immune system.
Factors that may increase your risk of squamous cell carcinoma include:
Untreated squamous cell carcinoma can destroy nearby healthy tissue, spread to the lymph nodes or other organs, and may be fatal, although this is uncommon.
The risk of aggressive squamous cell carcinoma may be increased in cases where the cancer:
If you have a skin wound or lesion that concerns you, make an appointment with your doctor. You may be referred to a doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of skin conditions (dermatologist).
If you've already had skin cancer, you have an increased risk of a second cancer. Talk with your dermatologist about how often you should have a skin examination to look for signs of another skin cancer.
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and what to expect from your doctor.
What you can do
Below are some basic questions to ask your doctor about squamous cell carcinoma. If any additional questions occur to you during your visit, don't hesitate to ask.
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
Tests and procedures used to diagnosed squamous cell carcinoma include:
Most squamous cell carcinomas can be completely removed with relatively minor surgery or occasionally with a topical medication. Which squamous cell carcinoma treatments are best for you depends on the size, location and aggressiveness of the tumor, as well as your own preferences.
Treatments may include:
Most squamous cell carcinomas can be prevented. To protect yourself:

WILLSBORO — Voters approved a land swap for NYCO Minerals, granting the local mining company access to 200 acres of state land.
In return, NYCO will move 1,507 acres of private land in the Town of Lewis into the Adirondack Forest Preserve.
The amendment requires NYCO to reclaim the 200 acres of state land and return it to the State Forest Preserve once mining operations are done.
Proposition 5 cleared with a margin much narrower than the other five amendment decisions made Tuesday.
"Yes" votes for the swap came in at 1,137,047 compared to 1,006,525 "no" votes.
Across all 62 New York counties, there are 11,016,685 registered voters, indicating that 10 percent of the state's voting public weighed in.
Environmental groups took a diverse stance on the land-swap measure; some heralded the importance of local jobs, and others charged that "selling" state land to corporate interest would set a dangerous precedent.
NYCO spokesman John Brodt said the passage of Proposition 5 is good for jobs, good for the Forest Preserve and good for New York.
"The passage of Proposition 5 is a win-win for everyone who loves the Adirondacks and those of us who make our homes and livelihoods here," he said in a statement.
"This vote will help NYCO Minerals Inc. protect 100 jobs and permit expansion of the Adirondack Forest Preserve by 1,500 acres of forestland rich in hiking and fishing opportunities.
"We were fortunate to have unprecedented statewide support from environmental groups, labor unions, local governments, business organizations, elected officials and, of course, NYCO's employees and friends. We're thrilled that the broad, bipartisan enthusiasm for Proposition 5 was shared by the voters at large."
Expanding mining operations in the Town of Lewis adds another eight to 10 years to the Adirondack operations, Brodt said.
The company is looking forward to working with the State Department of Environmental Conservation and local officials to move ahead with the land transfer, he said.

Work to remove a raised median will begin next week in front of the Dollar General Store in Hawesville, Kentucky.
Beginning Monday, a portion of Highway 60 in Hancock County will be seeing a change, and it's all thanks to some students who are starting off their high school careers in big ways.
These students were still in eighth grade when they began work on the civic project that took them out of the classroom and into the real world.
Thanks to their letters and petitions, state transportation officials will remove the median and replace it with a turning lane.
For the students, it's a feeling that can't be matched.
"It makes me feel, like, really accomplished that we started a project six months ago and now we're actually going to get something done. It's going to be a visible change in the community," Freshman Bo Powers said.
Others believe their futures will only get brighter.
"It feels like I'm already setting myself up for success," said Freshman Melanie Husk.
The new high schoolers hope this shows that age doesn't matter when it comes to having a voice.
"Not just adults can change stuff. It doesn't matter how old you are. You can always make a difference if you try hard enough," Husk said.
Josh Roberts says he couldn't be happier for his former students.
"The thing I'm most proud of is that every time that they go, you know, past that roadway, they're like 'We did this,'" Roberts said.
And like any school project, Roberts said, "They did get graded, and they did extremely well."
Ultimately, the students want to send a message.
"As long as you put in the work, then you can actually get something done," Powers said.
As a teacher, Josh says this is one of those moments he'll never forget.
The job is expected to be finished by Christmas.
Officials found that the area isn't known for a high number of accidents, but dozens of citations have been issued to drivers going the wrong way down a turn lane.

Last week I saw in the news that a there are a few lady golfers at the high school level who have been fighting for the right to continue playing on the boys' golf team at their respective schools.
The reason they are playing with the boys is that their schools don't have enough girls to field a girls' golf team, so they have been allowed to play on the boys' team. The problems arose for these young ladies when they started beating boys from other schools. Some coaches of the beaten schools are trying to get the girls banned from the boys' teams.
I hope that the young women in question are allowed to continue to golf on their high school teams. My thoughts on the subject stem not from a women's lib standpoint, but more from the fact that I have enjoyed many hours playing golf. I am not a golfer by any stretch, as I can barely make nine holes before exhaustion sets in from all of the extra swings I must take to get that darn tiny ball in the hole.
When I was about 10, my dad let me use his pitching wedge to whack Wiffle balls around the backyard. There were no lessons involved, and I was completely awful, but what fun I had. Then a few years later my brother and some of the neighborhood boys made a golf course around several of the houses in our neighborhood.

Semi-dwarf on Cuban Shaddock rootstock.
Zones: 10 (all other zones protect from freezing temperatures)
Fruit: Rich flavor, seedless, easy to peel and separate making it the favorite variety for fresh eating.
Facts of note: Performs the best in the mild climates of warm interior regions, where winter chilling helps develop fruit sweetness. California's most well known variety ripens in the winter months and holds the tree into spring.
Add a little zest to your garden! Citrus trees are potted, evergreen, semi-dwarf, 1 ½-years-old, pencil caliper, 18"-24" tall from the bottom of the pot to the top of the tree. They will, with good care, produce fragrant, self-pollinating flowers and wonderful fruit. Height 8'–12', but can be pruned to suit in ground or in containers. Choose a sunny location, in well drained soil, sheltered from wind. They are affected by below freezing temperatures, and in many locales require cold protection. Most tender to most hardy: Bearss Lime, lemons, orange, tangelo, grapefruit, mandarin, kumquat. Non-taxable. These are evergreen trees and thus the dormant bare root guarantee does not apply. Your trees will arrive in good, viable condition. Contact us immediately if they do not.

I am working on s40 apps. What are the possible device exceptions due to which rms database is not displaying on phone?
I am working on s40 apps. What are the possible device exceptions due to which rms database is not displaying on phone?
Some of the possible exceptions are :
Is this what you were looking for ?
I mentioned all these exceptions in my code but no exception is thrown while running code on emulator. but when i run on device it is showing "project running nothing to display" . I know the real output is that on a device but i just used example codes of rms available on internet. What extra thing i should do.. Is there any setting , path or anything that i am missing about saving rms?
You might want to debug and see what is being executed when you run it in the device.
ok can i have debugging tutorial link. step by step discription?
before that are you sure your datastore contains some data, or you just have an empty data store and thats why nothing is coming out. This is a of course a very basic question but can happen !!
i dont know . Maximum i can check only in emulator and it is showing data. I used getnumrecords() function and it is giving me number of records but it is not displaying on phone. So i am not sure it is saving or not. Is there any means i get to know this. I am getting problem in debugging for which i posted one question too
You could try logging to a file. It's not hard to do it yourself (just write lines to a text file), but there's also a lot of ready made solutions too, for example:
If file logging seems like too much work and you already know where the problem is, you could just show a dialog with details of the problem. For example, if you know/assume that you're getting an exception during RecordStore handling, just show a dialog with exception details in the catch block.
in the phone you can browse the file system and can search for the file on the phone . Also please do share
the phone and model number you are using for testing .
ok I am using asha 310

If it is still not working, please do the share the relevant code snippets where you create/edit/write to RMS.
Last edited by arunkam; 2013-07-15 at 20:15.
http://www.roseindia.net/j2me/read-write-rms.shtml this example i was working with . I removed the deleterecordstore function . Rest is as in code
Log/display whatever exception you get. Start from the beginning, so the RecordStore.openRecordStore. If it fails, the rest of the code certainly can not work. If it succeeds, continue with the next one (perhaps some addRecord call). And so on.
There is no other way, and it is only you who can do it.
EDIT: of course it applies to exceptions/crashes you encounter. Your other thread, http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...a-diffrent-way, suggests that you may expect data to be present in an empty RMS. That certainly will not happen, and you would need to pre-fill the RMS as described if you need some default content.

Spring has sprung in Johnston County, and I am surely not alone in applauding its tardy arrival. Winter overstayed its welcome here, bringing a cold rain as recently as last weekend, so Johnston County residents deserved the change in weather that arrived midweek.
On Wednesday, when the sun shone brightly and the temperature climbed into the 70s, one coworker said she found it hard to return to the office after a meeting in Raleigh. On the way home from the office that day, I rolled down the windows in the car and rolled back the sunroof.
Still, I'm mostly glad I live in a four-season state, because I think I need the cold of winter to appreciate the warmth of spring and the hot of summer to welcome the cool of autumn. I can say with some certainty that the people of Chicago welcome the arrival of spring after their harsh winters. One year, my wife and I happened to be in Chicago on the first real day of spring, and it's little exaggeration to say that everyone in the city came outdoors to soak up the sun.
At the risk of waxing philosophical, I suspect human beings need the opposite of something to fully appreciate that something. I don't know, for example, that we would relish life as much as we do without death. I don't know that we would appreciate youth without old age, good without evil, good health without illness, day without night.
So I'm going to relish this spring because I know it will soon enough give way to the sometimes-unbearable heat and humidity of summer. Summer, in turn, allows me to look forward to the arrival of fall, perhaps my favorite season of the year because of its clear blue skies and crisp nights and mornings.
I'm not saying I'd say no to a house in Hawaii overlooking the Pacific Ocean. But I like living in North Carolina because it just might snow on Christmas, and I'm pretty sure I'll need a sweater in fall.
Variety, I suppose, is the spice of life.
Photo project completed
I am a prolific taker of photographs, returning from the rare vacation with dozens, sometimes hundreds, of snapshots. But I am not a prodigious exhibitor of photographs, leaving most of my handiwork to gather digital dust on my laptop's hard drive.
But this past weekend, I completed a project, printing, framing and hanging a number photos for display at home. Here's what I learned:
Printing is quick and cheap. I came of age when newspaper photographers developed their own film and made their own prints, all by hand in a darkroom. The process was time consuming and messy because of the chemicals required. These days, the hardest part is choosing what photos to print. After that, just carry the flash drive or CD to Walmart or the corner drugstore, where 8x10 prints cost as little as $3 each.
Frames matter. Because I paid about $3 each for the prints, I was reluctant to spend a lot of money on the frames. So I ended up at the dollar store, where I paid $8 for eight 8x10 frames. Hindsight being perfect, I wish I had sprung for better frames, and I still might. The ones I purchased are fragile, and based how they hang on the wall, the frames might be warped, and the hooks might not be uniform in their placement.
Nobody's perfect. In all, my wife and I hung eight photos – four vertically on opposing columns. I consider myself fairly handy with a tape measure and tools; I have been building Neuse Little Theatre sets since 1990. But the photos we hung are not centered on the columns, and the spaces between them vertically are uneven. But you know what? It doesn't matter. Wall space that was barren is now home to photos from trips to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
My house is now more like a home, and that's a good thing.
What's a film camera?
Speaking of photos, recently, a friend carried her young daughter to an indoor water park in Charlotte. While there, she snapped some underwater photos of her daughter using a film camera encased in plastic.
Her daughter, being a child of the digital age, wanted to see the photos right away, as though the film camera were a phone camera or digital camera with display.
"That's not how this camera works," my friend told her daughter.
"Well, can't you just plug it into the computer?" the little girl asked.
"No," her mom said.
Digital photography is, of course, the only photography young people today know about, and I'm OK with that. Digital photography, with the right equipment, is high quality, and it's quick and easy, with none of the mess of film photography.
But it occurs to me that when the Johnston County Heritage Center opens an exhibit on the ancient art of film photography, I'll be qualified to lead tours. And I'm not sure I'm OK with that.

In an effort to inform the readers, the Daily Union has asked each candidate for major local races to answer questions.
The following are questions for Shelby County State's Attorney. Candidates are incumbent Deborah Riley and challenger Gina Vonderheide.
Q. State your qualifications for State's Attorney.
Riley: I have been a prosecutor for over ten years. During law school, I prosecuted ordinance violations for the City of Chicago. After graduating from law school and spending about nine months working as an attorney in Washington, D.C., I was hired as an Assistant State's Attorney for Coles County. In December 2004, I was hired as the Assistant State's Attorney for Shelby County. I served as Assistant State's Attorney for Shelby County until July 2010, when I was fired while on maternity leave by the Appointed State's Attorney, who replaced Allan Lolie after he was appointed Associate Judge. I then won the 2010 special election for Shelby County State's Attorney in November 2010, and took office as State's Attorney on December 1, 2010. I have proudly served as Shelby County State's Attorney since then and hope to continue serving as State's Attorney for Shelby County for the next four years.
I hope that the citizens of Shelby County will look at the respective candidate's experience and qualifications and then vote for the person that they feel can best enforce the laws and protect the community from those individuals who refuse to follow the law. I have taken dozens of cases to jury and bench trials, argued numerous motion hearings and sentencing hearings. I have prosecuted all types of criminal cases, including murder, sex offenses, methamphetamine, controlled substances, juvenile abuse and neglect, all other types of felony , misdemeanor and traffic charges.
Vonderheide: I am a practicing attorney in Shelby County and I have practiced criminal defense and civil law for 8 years. I held the office of State's Attorney for a time in 2010.

"We used a picture on the front which had a green background and I chose the red cover which is fabulous!!! Love the choices for this card as well which allowed really cute pictures inside and on the back. Great quality and weight of the paper."
"The paper was very thick and felt expensive. I purchased the pearlescent finish, which gave it a nice luster. The colors were vibrant. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the size of the 3 photos on the inside design. They should have been larger. Very nice product, overall, for a very fair price."

The crackdown on sex trafficking is continues in South Dakota. Only this time, truckers are being asked to put an end to the crime.
"DVD's and other materials will be presented to drivers including window stickers that gives them quick access to an 800 number to call when they see this type of activity taking place," explained Myron Rau, president of the South Dakota Trucking Association. "We basically talk to the drivers and tell them what they should be looking for and what information they need to collect or having at their fingertips when they call the number."
Rau says South Dakota has become the 14th state to adopt the "Truckers Against Trafficking" program.

The full list of albums proposed for the new round of 33 1/3 books has been posted to the series' official blog, and it's an interesting group! Besides the obvious choices, you'll find things like a Wilco album that hasn't been released yet, Garth Brooks' Chris Gaines album, and a volume of Now That's What I Call Music! Most striking are the albums that received multiple submissions: four for Duran Duran's Rio, seven (!) for Slint's Spiderland. At the end of the day, the writer probably matters more than the album, but this list represents at least some of what writers think you might want to read about. [33 1/3]
Every time they go and canvas submissions I get really excited at all the albums being covered and then…and then…it turns out only a few books are actually worth a damn.
Still, a Free To Be You and Me book has to happen.
You know what would be funny, if they published 7 different Slint books, or all 5 of the Exhile in Guyville proposals.
That being said, I think an X book would be great, especially Los Angeles.
Interesting to see a couple proposals for Metallica's black album, but for my money I think a book about And Justice For All would be the best read of any potential Metallica 33 1/3rd. Hell, a Load one could be really interesting in the right hands too. Time to get out the ol' proposal writin' pen, I guess.
No MERRIWEATHER POST PAVILION proposal? Come on, guys!
I'd really like to see "Marquee Moon," "Odessey and Oracle," and one of the X books come to fruition.
I was surprised/pleased to see that two of the three titles I considered pitching didn't make the list. And one was a title with multiple submissions. So either I'm completely out of touch, or completely revolutionary. Next year ya'll. I swear I'll submit.
I'd really like to read about "The Mollusk"
I'm one of three Kid As — WHO ARE THE OTHERS? (Be interesting if we all took the same angle.)
violent femmes. Make it happen!
They almost had two pitches for the first Danzig album, but as in previous years, I failed to get my shit together in time. Oh, well.
@Audif Jackson Winters III: Glasvegas made it, though.
And four different proposals for four different Mountain Goats albums. Which makes for four books I bet I'd never want to read.
Someone finally pitched [i]August and Everything After[/i].
@Dickdogfood: I proposed something entirely unrelated, but I'm so with you on the Free To Be You And Me. I hope that person is a genius.
I wish I was ballsy enough to pull of writing about "Sports."
@natepatrin: Or, better yet, what if it wasn't written by a guy who was institutionalised as teenager, but only played one on TV.
Hey, three non-lazy people also had my This Is Hardcore idea. Awesome!
Too bad I only heard about this opportunity the day before the deadline, I could have put in a proposal for a book on Felt's "Forever Breathes the Lonely Word" that only me and one other person in the world would buy.

Back in January of 2011, a woman with the exotic name of Makini Chaka filed a civil complaint against Redskins tight end Fred Davis, alleging that he had thrown a drink on her and hit her in the face with a blunt object.
Garden-variety athlete shenanigans in clubland, right?
This week, Washingtonian has come out of nowhere with an epic feature about the case, in which Davis is serving as his own counsel. For the record, Davis majored in sociology at USC, did not attend law school, and is representing himself in a case that could result in some financial loss, not to mention the personal embarrassment of a restraining order.
We don't want to completely spoil the good work of Luke Mullins, who wrote the story, but we do want to point out what may be the most stunning exchange in the history of American jurisprudence. It concerns a cross-examination conducted over certain images of Chaka, who Davis alleges is, more or less, a shakedown artist and a "madam/pimpette."
Here's that exchange:
Davis: "As it shows, you also have your hand on his genitals. I mean why would you take a picture like that?"
Chaka: "I do not. Let's look closely at the exhibit right here, Judge. Where is my hand placed in this exhibit?"
Judge: "I do not answer questions. . . . The witness does."
Chaka: "Can you tell me where my hand is actually at in this photo?"
Davis: "It looks like it's in the genitals to me. I mean your hands are on his genitals. Your hand is on his-"
Chaka: "Objection."
A memo to young D.C. athletes (like Bradley Beal): You want to know how to be successful in this town? It starts by avoiding the example of athletes like Fred Davis, and avoiding people like Makini Chaka altogether. Full stop.

Great I Have my I.d & Credit Cards and Phone all in one.! I Love it but Wish they had a Purple one.!
This product is priced cheaper than every other phone wallet I found, and is better quality and nicer material than the few I saw in store. It stays closed even when I needed to put in 4 cards and some cash, although it was obviously full. I like it best with only 2 cards, but that's all I carry day to day. It pads the phone too due to the material it's made from. I don't know if it is real leather but it feels like it is. I don't know what to say other than I'm very happy.
Luv this case, what I need to hold c.c and id. Good quality for price, luv to see more colors

Pat's Kitchen
Patricia Altomare
---- — It's a way of life, passed down through many generations in many families.
Maple sugar makers are dedicated to producing the highest quality maple syrup. They are proud people, proud of what they do and the products that start with the tapping of those maple trees. The same syrup that is on their tables for their families is what they make for you.
Yes, artificial syrups may cost less, but they are not really a deal — 100 percent pure maple syrup is natural with no added flavorings or sweeteners.
As it is said about life, with making maple syrup, timing is everything; mostly being left up to "Mother Nature." Tapping (inserting taps into tree trunks) too early or too late can alter the quantity and quality of the finished product. "Sugaring off," as it is known in New England, starts in late February and runs through early April, when the trees begin to bud. All New England states produce maple syrup, but Vermont leads in production as location is part of this timing equation — the farther north the "sugar bush," as tapping areas are called, the later the season.
Each tap hole on the trees produces about 10 gallons of sap a season, and 40 gallons are needed to make one gallon of maple syrup.
The first liquid to come from the sugar maple tree is a thin, watery stream which drips into a bucket hanging from the tap, or you may now see plastic tubing that snakes from tree to tree and connects to a single gathering tank — modern progress at work. The collected liquid is then taken to the sugar house, where the water is boiled off the sap, producing clouds of steam. The sweet, thick syrup is the result of simple evaporation and condensation.
Most sugar houses are open to the public and are happy to give tours. Early spring is the best time to see the entire process and bring home a container of maple syrup as well as candies and other products they have.
I have been to a couple of sugar houses, one in Vermont and another in Mason, N.H. I was fascinated when watching the whole process, and awed with all the products that can be made with maple syrup. It was very interesting to listen to the stories of these sugar makers — some continuing a lifestyle that began seven generations ago.
It makes for a great day trip, to say the least.
When cooking with maple syrup, substitute three-quarters to 1 cup of maple syrup for every one cup of granulated white sugar.
Decrease the liquid in your recipe by 2 to 4 tablespoons for each cup of syrup used. Add 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, unless your recipe already calls for buttermilk, sour milk, or sour cream. Also, decrease your oven temperature by 25 degrees as batters containing maple tend to caramelize around the edges more quickly.
New England Baked Beans w/ Pure Maple Syrup
2 pounds dried beans, navy yellow-eye or other
1/2 pound lean salt pork (optional)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2-3 medium-sized onions, peeled and halved
1 1/2 cups pure maple syrup
Night before: Wash and pick over beans. Cover with cold water, add baking soda and soak overnight. In the morning rinse beans and boil gently in fresh water until skins wrinkle. Drain off bean water and save. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Place onions in the bottom of a bean pot or heavy ovenware such as a dutch oven.
Add remaining ingredients. Score pork with deep cuts and place on top of beans.
Pour in bean water just to cover. Bake covered for about 8 hours.
Check periodically, adding more bean water as needed. For the last hour cook uncovered to brown top.
Serves 10 or more.
Maple syrup provides body and a sweet base to this vinaigrette.
It is particularly good on a spinach salad with mushrooms, red onion, and apple slices.
Maple-Dijon Vinaigrette
1/4 cup maple syrup
3 tablespoons minced shallots or sweet onion
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 tablespoon country style Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
Combine ingredients and mix well with a whisk.
Guide to maple syrup grades:
Grade B: Sometimes called "cooking syrup" preferred by some cooks for baking and cooking because of its deep maple flavor and caramel undertones. Good for baked beans, breads and cookies.
Grade A Dark Amber: This is good for all around use, great choice in all kinds of recipes. Pour over baked apples or squash, use as a glaze for meats and vegetables.
Grade A Medium Amber: Most popular grade of table syrup and a good choice for gift-giving.
Fancy grade: A golden color with a delicate flavor. Pour over ice cream which is sometimes called the "sugar makers'" favorite dessert. Also good on your morning oatmeal and to make candies.
Storage tips: Always refrigerate after opening. To preserve maple's fresh flavor and prevent crystallization, it can be frozen. Freeze and thaw any number of times, just thaw completely, mixing in any condensation on the top before use.

Retail experts warn that not all dollar store deals are great deals.
Here is a list of the 10 things never to buy at a dollar store, from SavingAdvice.com:
You should also avoid sandwich bags, boxed mixes and candy at dollar stores. Saving Advice says there is just not as much of these products when you buy them from some dollar-type stores.
