4.25/5 rDev +17.1%

3.71/5 rDev +2.2%
What German brewer wouldn't want to dabble in the dopple? After all, the style is one of the most storied in the beer world. Its elusive savory bread taste and satisfying sustenance signal the lenten season and quench the hearty thirst for bold lager worldwide.
Yet is bright gold color confuses the eye with a deep pilsner-esque appearance. With delicate honey, grain sweetness and floral honeysuckle swirling about the nose and saturating the early palate, its rich bready taste is lightly toasted and herbal.
Build much like a fatter maibock, the toasted flavors are light in order to allow the savory taste of fresh baking bread and high barley sweetness to emanate. Greatly satisfying in its full body and lavish honey taste, its own melanoidin-rich complexity keeps it from cloying.
Yet its malt-forward balance yearns for the toastier molasses, dark fruit and rummy character of darker dopplebock. And like maibock, its candied apple and pear tones are mead-like and decadently dessert-like, much like bread pudding.
Traditional to their core, Hofbrau shows remarkable experimentation and adaptation in giving the season a unique taste but honoring the yesteryear of brewing heritage; even if uncertainly is explained in this hybrid taste.

Brilliant light golden, looks nothing like a dopplebock... Aroma reveals melanoidins, deep toasted and caramel malt notes. There's a touch of floral hop character. Flavor is toasted and nutty, lightly sweet, with a hint of diacetyl/toffee note. The finish is somewhat metallic and earthy. It's a little hot.

Had pint on draft in Downingtown, PA.
A: Dark amber color. Lighter than typical doublebocks I've had. Two finger head that dissipated quickly.
S: Strong aroma of malt, biscuit and slight alcohol.
T: Malty with caramel coming through as the beer warmed. I also noted some slight fruit that others have observed (dates?). Some bitterness from noble hops but no real hop aroma which is probably true to the style. Modest amount of alcohol heat but otherwise quite enjoyable from a taste perspective. It held its own when paired with a spicy pulled pork sandwhich.
M: Medium bodied and clean with a modest amount of carbonation.
O: This is a solid double bock. This is one of my favorite beer styles so I would probably rate it third among German double bocks behind Ayinger (#1) and Spaten (#2). I would definitely seek out again, especially since it seems hard to find.

Served on-tap at Pilsener Haus in Hoboken, NJ
A: Pours a crystal clear medium yellow in color with moderate to heavy amounts of visible carbonation and some dark golden yellow highlights. The beer has a finger tall white head that quickly reduces to a thin film covering the majority of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light to moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of bready and caramel malts with just a touch of grassy hops.
T: Similar to the smell, there are moderate to strong flavors of bready and caramel malts with just a touch of honey sweetness. That is followed by some grainy malts and just a touch of fruity yeast. There is a light to moderate amount of lingering bitterness.
M: Just shy of medium bodied with moderate to heavy amounts of carbonation. Slightly dry in the finish. Crisp.
O: Overall the alcohol is just not as well hidden as I would have liked but it is hard to say exactly where you detect it... It is an OK example of the style but nothing really jumps out for this beer.

Poured via tap into a half-liter mug. Poured a rich golden color with decent head retention. Aroma was of ripe fruit - bananas and apples - as well as a bit of light hoppiness and the alcoholic fragrance of classic German beer.
Taste was similar to the smell. Still the fruitiness, like a hefeweizen, especially the yeasty banana bread undertones. Also prevalent syrupy malts and a slight kick of hops on the finish. The slight burn of the ample alcohol warms after swallowing. Mouthfeel was slightly thick, rich, but not quite syrupy. Nice clean finish, but certainly not crisp. Overall pretty complex but not overwhelming. All the nuances come through. Would be a difficult beer for the novice drinker.

On draft at Prost, Garden City, NY.
Poured a light brassy hue with a one finger foamy whoye head. There was good retention and lacing.
The smell was dominated by round sweet malts.
The taste consisted of a soft sweet caramel with a metallic essence and a utilitarian hop.
The mouthfeel was toward the lighter side of the style.
Overall a lighter take on the doppelbock. Interesting.

I had never heard of the Delicator, what's that like? Only one way to find out, order a half liter. On to the beer:
A few shades darker than gold in the body. The head on top is thick and frothy, leaving some good lacing that sticks around. The nose is hopped up, more specifically a sharp hop bitterness and light floral.
The hop attack continues. This is a very bitter tasting beer. Even I had to take a step back and adjust my expectations because of the bitterness. Lawn clippings and a small dose of pale malt provide the other notes to this one of a kind beer.
Not a bad beer, though not the most optimal beer for the mood I was in at the time. I guess that's what I get for not asking for a taster.

Hmmm, where to start. As the first reviewer of the CD, I just want to say this album SLAYS. I don't know how they do it, but this band really keeps getting better and better. They seem to build on themselves, evolve, progress, yet still manage to have this unmistakable sound that is High On Fire.
I'm not the hugest metalhead in anyways whatsoever. My metal collection is pretty poor, but I am a rabid music fan in general, and definte fan of good heavy music.
High on Fire somehow takes the elements of metal and rock and make the best of them without sounding cliched and old. What initally sparked me on this band was their HUGE groove that their songs have. It's so hard to just sit there listening without banging your head with this massive groove they have.
That said, this new album of theirs is a must buy for any fans of metal, and an eyeopener for all rock fans.
The opening track starts off heavy and fast. A new side of this band. Good song, but for me, it all starts once song # 2 comes in, 'Face of Oblivion'. Holy @#$@. When I first heard this song, my jaw dropped. Starts off sludgy, then ends up as an epic metal rock song. From there, the whole rest of the album is pretty much instant classic material.
I believe that 2005 is gonna be a breakthrough yr for this band in the metal world. They deserve every praise they get and I'd love to see this band get the respect they deserve.
As for the production of this album, it's perfect. This time they got Steve Albini to record it, and he nails them down perfect. Compared to their last album 'Surrounded By Thieves', the sound is clearer, crisper, yet still retains a thick as hell sound that is so deadly. I think that this sound is perfect for this album, just as I think that the muddy and dusty sound on SBT was perfect for that album. You can really hear the intricate guitar work on this album that wouldn't work as well with SBT production.
If you are new to this band, I'd say this album is a great intro to this band. Keep in mind though, as one-sided as this band may be (their sole intent is to crush), each album is different from the next, and I can only wonder what their next album will sound like.

|City leaders should consider stop signs near post office
Dear Editor:
The time has come for us to point out the dangers that lie in picking up our mail at the local post office on Wall Street in Eagle River.There are many stop signs on back streets to make traffic near the library and churches safer. We feel that a four-way stop at the post office corner would improve our chances of opening a car door and crossing the street a lot safer.
We have seen too many close calls and mothers with small children and elderly running the gauntlet of traffic crossing Wall Street to the post office.
Maybe our city fathers would see fit to place stop signs on Wall Street for the safety of all.
Thank you for listening,
Tommy and Carol Miles

Spotlight of the Week //
Home to Yoda during his final years, Dagobah was a swamp-covered planet -- a forgotten world where the wizened Jedi Master could escape the notice of Imperial forces. Characterized by its bog-like conditions and fetid wetlands, the murky and humid quagmire was undeveloped, with no signs of technology. Though it lacked civilization, the planet was teeming with life -- from its dense, jungle undergrowth to its diverse animal population. Home to a number of fairly common reptilian and amphibious creatures, Dagobah also boasted an indigenous population of much more massive -- and mysterious -- lifeforms.
Do or Do Not
When his X-wing sinks into the Dagobah swamp, Luke is encouraged by Yoda to use the Force to raise the ship from the depths.
Yoda is deeply unsettled when he hears something from beyond the grave: the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn. Knowing that it is impossible for a Jedi to retain his identity after death, the Jedi Council begins to worry that Yoda may be corrupted by the influence of the dark side. Determined to find answers, Yoda escapes the Jedi Temple to follow the disembodied voice.
Arriving on Dagobah
Luke Skywalker and his faithful astromech droid, R2-D2, arrive on the planet Dagobah in search of the Jedi Master, Yoda. Attempting to get himself out of their ship, R2-D2 plummets into the swamp below.

Linda Lewis, president of the chamber, said the threat of rain was the determining factor in the postponing of the parade.
"There is a 70 percent chance of rain, and that is just too much of a chance for us to go ahead with the parade as planned," she said.
Lewis said the parade will now be Thursday, starting at 6:30 p.m.
"Thursday's forecast looks clear," she said.
The postponement was primarily for safety reasons, Lewis said.
"You've got children on floats, children on the streets — we don't want anyone slipping down and getting hurt," she said.
Lewis said the rain would also cause issue with some floats and antique cars that are participating in the parade.
"It was just best to postpone it," Lewis said. "We've had to postpone in the past. Everything remains the same, except for the date."
More than 100 entrants are expected for the parade, and Lewis said applications for floats will be accepted through Thursday morning.
The parade will start at 6:30 p.m. Thursday on 19th Street. For those entering a float, line-up begins at 4 p.m. in the parking lot of Walker High School.
Awards will be given for first, second and third place for the following categories: business, government, nonprofit and antique cars.
Chamber officials ask that no floats include a live Santa Claus because he will be the grand marshal of the parade. They also ask that float riders not throw candy to spectators, but rather get off the floats to hand them out. Also, children on floats should be attended to by an adult.
Lewis added that Santa Claus will be on hand to give children coloring books and candy canes from 3:30 to 6 p.m. at the chamber office at the Community Health Systems Activities Center in Jasper.
Lewis said local businesses in Jasper's downtown district will have extended store hours so those watching the parade can do some shopping.
A pre-parade event is scheduled for 5:15 p.m. Thursday in front of Jasper City Hall. The Athletic Arts Center in Jasper will present several holiday-themed dance numbers at that time.

No more knee pain!

I had swelling in my left knee, and my knee would colaspe on me at any time. After a visit to the knee doctor and xrays I was told it was age related cartilage wear. I refused shots and went with excerise to rebuild weak muscles. After several weeks my knee started to feel better, but still had some swelling and a little pain. I started taking Joint Astin and in just 24 hours the swelling and pain was gone. I take the perscribed 4 caps a day and have had no problems. I have also noted that I have more energy and feel better. I believe it helps in more areas than just joints. My wife now takes it for her sholders and hips. She is pain free now too. GREAT STUFF! I highly recommend it for people who have tried everything and still have pain.
Love the JointAstin

An amazing formula for joints. My father takes these for his osteoarthritis instead of his NSAID's from the doctor and has never been better. I also take them for my joints as i do alot of running and feel great on many levels ! My endurance and recovery has improved greatly in a short space of time (one week of consistent use).
Great product & Service.

It took a few weeks, but I've noticed fairly radical improvement in arthritic (and also stress related) left shoulder pain since I started taking this formula in conjunction with another product on this website, NEM (Membrell, JointHealth with Natural Eggshell Membrane, 90 Veggie Caps). Thjs combination seems to mimic, possibly outdo, the Joint pain formula on this site by Dr. Mercola. The dosage is higher here, the Astaxanthin is manufactured by the same company (although the NEM isn't) and this formula also includes Glucosamine while the other does not.

Gloucester Daily Times
---- — Rockport native Caroline Jouhourian (see news story, Page 1) says she doesn't consider herself a hero for the way she responded to Tufts University Medical Center in Boston in the aftermath of Monday's twin terrorist bombings at the Boston Marathon finish line.
But we do. And she's not alone among Cape Ann responders and other residents who, in the wake of this horrific attack on Boston — and really on our American way of life as a whole — have stepped up throughout the week, showing our community's strength in the face of these cowardly actions by a still-unknown enemy or enemies.
Those heroes are not just folks like Jouhourian, Essex Dr. David Driscoll, who was volunteering at the marathon medical tent, then sprung into an entirely new level of response when the explosions struck, or Gloucester police K9 officer Chris Genovese and his trained dog, Mako, who went to Boston Monday night to assist with the investigation. It also means people like Gloucester runner Meghan Cole, who — like other Cape Ann residents involved in Monday's race — was obviously stunned by the news when told to cut short her first fund-raising Marathon run, yet stood firm and vowed to return next year.
"I'm not going to let this prevent me from doing anything else," Cole said. "... We can't let this instill fear in us."
She's right, of course. And that — like President Obama's powerful address in Boston's Cathedral of the Holy Cross Thursday — should send the terrorists a clear message, and it is this:
Yes, Monday's attack has claimed three lives, and changed hundreds of others. But it is has failed to break or even bend our spirit, and in fact has brought out the very best resolve and responses in so many of our people, in Boston, here on Cape Ann and far beyond.
That should be part of our lasting memory of a week we can never forget.

Baroque boost for Red Nose Day
11:14am Sunday 17th February 2013 in National Entertainment News © Press Association 2014
Shakespearean actor Simon Russell Beale is lending a touch of class to Comic Relief by appearing in a string of comedy sketches on Radio 3 about the lives of five great composers.
Russell Beale, a regular on stage with the National Theatre, will star in Beastly Baroque on the station every day in the week running up to Red Nose Day on Friday March 15.
Other events include football pundit Pat Nevin putting on his dancing shoes for Dance Baroque for Comic Relief, a live concert from Lyons Concert Hall at the University of York where he will learn the steps of a 17th century dance and perform it in front of a live audience.
The station will also broadcast a 12 hour Baroque music marathon as part of its month-long Baroque Spring season.
Its controller Roger Wright said: "I am delighted that BBC Radio 3 is once again supporting Red Nose Day in 2013, with a wide variety of entertaining programmes. It's great to have such important figures as Simon Russell Beale again bringing their talent to the station for such a great cause. I hope our listeners will enjoy the music and entertainment, as well as the many opportunities to get involved."

The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) has put out new guidelines on sentinel lymph node biopsy for people diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer.
Lumpectomy for Early-Stage Triple-Negative Disease Doesn't Seem to Increase Risk of Breast Cancer Coming Back in Same Breast

New Guidelines Say Lumpectomy Margins Can Be Small as Long as Tumor Has No Ink on It
To establish a standard for lumpectomy margins, the American Society for Radiation Oncology and the Society of Surgical Oncology issued new guidelines saying that clear margins, no matter how small as long as there was no ink on the cancer tumor, should be the standard for lumpectomy surgery.

Breast MRI May Cause Older Women to Choose Mastectomy Over Lumpectomy
A new study suggests that older women diagnosed with breast cancer who have a breast MRI before surgery to remove the cancer are more likely to choose mastectomy over lumpectomy.
Why Do Many Younger Women Choose Mastectomy Over Lumpectomy?
A small study has found a number of reasons why younger women opt for mastectomy over lumpectomy plus radiation to treat early-stage breast cancer.
Insurance Influences Type of Surgery Women Get for Early-Stage Breast Cancer
The type of insurance a woman has affects what type of surgery she has to treat early-stage breast cancer.
Research Suggests Lumpectomy Plus Radiation Leads to Better Survival for Early-Stage Breast Cancer but Questions Remain
A study suggests that in the real world, women diagnosed with stage I or stage II breast cancer who have lumpectomy followed by radiation have better survival rates than women who have mastectomy.
MRI Before Surgery Doesn't Reduce Need for More Surgery Later

This hard to find disk is worth the effort. Metal is bigger in Europe than it is stateside, and these guys are first rate musicians. Vocals are reminiscent of Adam Lambert on American Idol. That kind of vocal range is truly one in a million.
Worth checking out even if you are not into metal!
Dang everything is so dang good on this album. From the start you are sent into the fire of metal awesomeness from track 1 "Metal is Forever". From then on everything is just a great CD to listen to. I have listened to the whole CD tonight while working and I didn't hit the skip button once. This is the first CD I have gotten from Primal Fear and I am glad i picked this one why not listen to the best! They are on tour right now so I am just getting my singing voice ready and so far I love singing these songs. I also highly recommend this album of Perpetual Flame Yngwie Malmsteen and Tim (ripper) owens bought both together and they go nicely together
~Enjoy it
I'm not what you'd call a serious Primal Fear fan. Don't get me wrong, I generally enjoy their brand of Judas Priest-worshipping German power metal, and I think their last album (New Religion) is one of the decade's best power metal releases, but I never found their earlier albums to be quite as essential. They were always solid and professional, but they tended towards repetition. That's where a compilation like Metal is Forever (great title, by the way) comes in handy.
Metal is Forever: The Very Best of Primal Fear pulls together the best material from Primal Fear's back catalog, with 3 songs from 1998's Primal Fear, 2 from 1999's Jaws of Death, 3 from 2001's Nuclear Fire, 2 from 2002's Black Sun, 3 from 2004's Devil's Ground, and 3 from 2005's Seven Seals. The songs aren't in chronological order, so the transition between songs is sometimes very noticeable. Still, this is a very comprehensive overview of what Primal Fear's studio albums, and you definitely get a good idea of the kind of metal former Gamma Ray frontman (and contender to replace Rob Halford in Judas Priest) Ralf Scheepers and Sinner mainman Mat Sinner have unleashed on the world.
If that weren't enough, Metal is Forever also includes a bonus disc with 9 completely predictable (and completely awesome) cover songs. On this disc, Primal Fear takes on Thin Lizzy, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Accept, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and Led Zeppelin. It would have been cool to see them take on the Scorpions and Helloween, but for the most part I think they covered all the bases here.
If you're new to the band and are looking for a good place to start, Metal is Forever is the way to go, though you'll definitely want to check out New Religion as well. If, like me, you enjoy what Primal Fear has to offer but don't feel compelled to own their whole discography, Metal is Forever is a very worthwhile purchase.
Disc one is a solid comp of Primal Fear tunes & is probably best suited for the newbie. I picked it up for the second disc of covers, all well-done & several of which are not easily found elsewhere. I just wish they could have included "Horrorscope" somewhere on here since that track is somewhat elusive. (I have the eagle-shaped EP, but I'm too scared to put it in any of my CD players!) I also wish they had used more than two songs from "Black Sun" as I think that may be their best release to date. But I can't really complain since I bought this new for under 10 bucks. So if you're just discovering PF or you're a long-time fan who likes the idea of having their various covers together on one CD, I can recommend this if you can find it at a good price.

Two Edmonton Oilers draft picks, goaltender Olivier Roy and forward Curtis Hamilton, were among 39 players invited to Team Canada's selection camp, to be held in Toronto December 12-15. The glass is half full, as Oiler hopeful Ryan Martindale was not included. Also of potential interest to local sports fans are Edmonton Oil Kings defenceman Mark Pysyk (a Buffalo Sabres prospect), as well as 2011 draft-eligibles Sean Couturier (C), Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (C), and Ryan Murphy (D). Here is a full list of invitees.
Edmonton Oilers goalie prospect Olivier Roy is a hot commodity in the QMJHL. Yesterday he was traded from the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles - where he holds the franchise record for wins - to the Lewiston Maineiacs for two second-round picks and an exchange of thirds. This transaction was evidently the future considerations in the midseason deal that sent Jacob Legace to the Cape, a trade that turned out very badly for the Screaming Eagles. Today Lewiston flipped Roy to the Acadie-Bathurst Titan for a substantially better package of picks, including two first-rounders (today's #5 overall, and 2012's), a 2nd, 3rd, and 5th rounder. Lewiston then traded many of these assets to acquire the first overall pick in today's draft (Dillon Fournier) Of course Roy remains an Oiler property throughout this flurry of activity, but it's nothing but good news to Oiler fans that our 19-year-old goalie could command such a high return for a single year of service. I also found the mournful reaction of Cape Breton fans enlightening. The amount of trade activty around QMJHL draft day is nothing short of staggering.
Oiler prospects Jordan Eberle, Philippe Cornet and Olivier Roy are on the list.
The Oilers Top-25 Prospects Rankings: #16 - 20.
A compilation of scouting reports on Olivier Roy, the goaltender the Oilers took 133rd overall in this weekend's draft. Find out why he slipped and why he may be a steal.

Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon
7 comments:
I've never made this and perhaps never ate it, but yours looks so good I may have to give it a tryReplyDelete
These are my favorite kind of cooking days, Tricia! All day... no make-up... good music... I would have had a glass of that wine... Sounds absolutely wonderful. I really enjoyed that movie, Julie and Julia. And, I enjoy your posting of this recipe! Thank you. blessings ~ tannaReplyDelete
You're on a roll---grandmother-hood must agree with you! This looks astounding, I don't know if I have the energy to tackle it, but I sure would love a big plate of it. Great job.ReplyDelete
This looks terrific! I made some red wine beef before, and it was really delicious. Bet this would have tasted better since it's JD's recipe. Love those baby onions...ReplyDelete
This is impressive, Tricia! It sound delicious too.ReplyDelete
So you were the only one who ate it fresh? A lot of time and money in a meal for one!ReplyDelete
Welp, I don't know how to pronounce "Bourguignon", but I'll be damned if it doesn't look delicious. Bore-gweeeg-non??ReplyDelete

I was given a file from a competetor (this is evil)
The file has coordinates in feet (x, y) but elevations (Z) in meters.
I need the contours intact (cant explode block and scale) to create a surface from.
The other part is this is a big file so anything by hand would be rediculous.
I need the final file where the x,y has stayed the same but the z has been adjusted to the correct foot elevation (scaled)
Thanks in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
export the points to a pnezd comma delimited file. open with excel or other spreadsheet program. convert the metric elevation to feet and store the values as numbers. then replace the metric with the english elevations and save the file to a csv comma delimited file and reimport to C3D.
Sorry, The data I have is contours, as polylines, no points.
oh sorry i misread that. for contours the map query functions might work to assign new elevations to the polylines based on a formula. I know you can have map read gis data and assign elevations to polylines based on that data. So why wouldn't it let you apply to a math formula to them.
Can you just insert this drawing into another as a block?
Then you can set different scales for x, y, z.
I won't let you explode as part of the insert, but you can explode it afterwards.
Credit where credit is due! Give kudos or accept as solution whenever you can.
Sorry I dont want it exploded, When you scale only one direction it explodes your contours.
I did figure this out though,
First create a surface style that only displays your triangles.(display tab of suface style only triangles should be highlighted)
In the triangles tab of the surface styles menu, select exagerate elevation) and change the scale factor from 1 to what ever you need to convert, (meters to ft) (if you are reducing the elevation use flatten elevations.
Now select the surface to get the surface ribbon,
Click extract data.
Make sure triangles are the only thing selected.
Create a new surface
Define the surface by 3d faces,
BAM your surface is scaled to the right vertical with out touching your horizontal.
Thanks everyone!

CHARLESTON, W.Va. —
According to a fact sheet from Fisher scientific, the chemical is harmful if swallowed, and may also be harmful if inhaled. It causes eye and skin irritation.
The spill caused a state of emergency in Kanawha and eight other counties where West Virginia American Water customers reside. Restaurants in Charleston were closed immediately, and grocery store shelves were stripped of bottled water early in the evening. Schools in the region were closed Friday.
U.S. Attorney Booth Goodwin announced Friday that his office is investigating the incident.
"Yesterday's release of a potentially dangerous chemical into our water supply has put hundreds of thousands of West Virginians at risk, severely disrupted our region's economy and upended people's daily lives," Goodwin said. "My office and other federal law enforcement authorities have opened an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the release. We will determine what caused it and take whatever action is appropriate based on the evidence we uncover."
State Sen. Daniel Hall, a Democrat, was part way through his plate of wings at a local sports bar where he and fellow legislators had gathered to watch a game about 6:30 p.m. Hall said he got a text message about the ban on water use, then started following local news media on Twitter. The restaurant stopped all new orders, he said.
The "No Use" order, which means that water can only be used to flush toilets and fight fires, was issued as a precaution, officials said, because they are still not sure what, if any, risk the spill poses to residents.
McIntyre said his company won't know that until they know the health standards for the diluted chemical.
Paul Ziemkiewicz, director of the West Virginia Water Research Institute at West Virginia University, said a 3,000 gallon spill would translate to 41 milligrams per liter in the Elk River and 6 milligrams per liter in the Kanawha River, using data available now.
"Those are pretty low concentrations," he said. "You would have to drink thousands of gallons of that water to get anywhere near a lethal dose."
Still, he said, showering would not be a good idea, because the chemical could irritate the skin and lungs.
Details for this story were reported by The Register-Herald in Beckley, W. Va.

General Decorating
Empty wall solutions, anyone?
I recently moved into a new apartment and, due to the awkward setup of my bedroom, my old television is nestled on a low upcycled coffee table against a blank wall.
I cannot mount the television or do anything else that would require holes or damage to the walls. I also want to avoid replacing the table because I can't move anything larger as a student.
So, my problem is figuring out a way to dress up the wall without detracting from the tv or making the room too "cluttered". I wanted to use some large art as a headboard on the opposite wall but not if it overwhelms the room. I also have two bookshelves on opposite sides of the room, but they're different sizes and look awkward when used to frame to tv.
I'm looking for an incredibly cheap or DIY solution to this problem that won't detract or clutter my decor. I can post pictures of the room if it will inspire (but keep in mind my colorblock bedspread and wall art have yet to arrive so it'll seem like a blank canvas at this point).
I know this sounds limited (which is why I'm having so much trouble with it) but I could use a point in the right direction! Suggestions?
Welcome. Do post pics of different angles of the room. They would help greatly with suggestions.
Do use 3M hooks to hang wall art. They won't damage the walls.To lessen the chance of cluttered walls, opt for posters or even enlarged photography to hang.
Awaiting pics...
Tessa how much time do you spend in the br? do you share common areas with roommates?
i'd do what froo froo suggested using the easy remove hooks, but use your purses, jewelry, scarves, as your art pieces...
Have a look at google images of gallery walls showing the TV as part of it: https://encrypted.google.com/s...kSUvvNK4aOigLIjYGoBQ
Sjf's idea of using your purses, jewelry, scarves, as your art pieces (or part of the art) is an excellent one.

i'm just thinking how little time my kids actually spent in the college apts...my one dd came home about every weekend to work, as did my ds...the other dd was either at school or work...my last kid was too far away and was stuck with dorm for 4 years!
Tessa I know how much you want a homey feel esp if you're far away from family...but save the ** or start a computer log of things you see and like when that real apt comes along...
Excellent advice.
Could the TV be placed on top of the larger bookcase? I mean move the bookcase to the wall where you have the TV now. Or maybe on the smaller bookcase. Also would it be possible to get a chest of drawers for storage and the TV?
Good luck and have fun making your space "yours".
Friends divide our sorrows and multiply our joys.
I had the same question recently when I moved into a new apartment. I attempted to make one of those DIY melted crayon art pieces but that did not turn out as well as I expected. So I decided to leave the hard work to someone else and buy some different types of wall art that shutterfly sells. So much easier that way lol. Hope this helps!

"My husband and I were looking for our holiday cards. We wanted something personalized, but since we don't have kids don't see any need to have a picture card. We ordered this in red, and loved it. Friends really liked it too!"
"Oh my! What a lovely card. I ordered this card in Baltic (navy). I added the pearl white shimmer & requested the corners to be rounded. I personalized the front side by only including 2013. Out of the three selections for the background, I chose the color navy, and added a beautiful message. I'm very happy with my Christmas cards. Please note: These cards are personalized.

"I decided this year to send holiday cards through Tiny Prints instead of hand writing each one like I usually do. Saved me a TON of time, looked great, and I ordered the card blank on the backside so I could write a message if I wanted. The card turned out wonderful! Fabulous quality, great savings with the holidays and I got my cards out already! Will definitely order through Tiny Prints for next year :)"
"I had a hard time choosing which color I wanted, but decided on the ivory and silver card, and I added a message to the back and left quite a bit of space to write my own message as well. I am very pleased with the quality of the card, and I know everyone that gets one will think it is beautiful as well."
"We ended up purchasing the "Captivating Crystals" for our office Christmas Cards. They arrived before the expected date and were all printed to perfection. Elegant, festive and professional."

Government 'fall short' of solution to energy bill crisis
– Energy Bill Revolution campaign director Ed Matthew
Our political leaders are falling over themselves to come up with headline-grabbing ways to cut energy bills yet they fall woefully short of a true solution to the energy bill crisis.
By far the biggest opportunity to cut energy bills is to fully insulate the UK's leaky homes. No other investment can do so much for so many.
If the Government is serious about solving this crisis they must make insulating homes the UK's number one infrastructure priority.

WASHINGTON, Ill. -- It's been six months since an EF-4 tornado ripped through more than a thousand homes. The tornadoes injured several people and caused fatalities in communities around the state. Now recovery is in full swing. Washington Mayor Gary Manier says it has been a long journey.
"When you look at it, sometimes it feels as if its been yesterday and then other times it seems like it's been years," said Mayor Manier. "Because of the harsh winter we had, which we had that 4 or 5 months where everything was just kind of dormant. With the progress we've made--we're talking about over 400 or 500 building permits--there's a lot of encouragement."
This milestone means a lot for Washington residents who have also come a long way.
Washington couple Nancy and Daniel Topping survived the storm. They live in a home located in the hardest hit area of Washington. News 25 met the couple on Thanksgiving. Nancy and Daniel were picking up debris and cleaning up the aftermath of the storm.
"That was a big change in life right there," reflects Daniel. "It put me to work."
"There was no grass. It was muddy. Trees were knocked over. Flowers were stomped," said Nancy.
Now, in May, the couple tells a different story.
"The flowers are coming back now, and the trees are starting to have some blossoms so it's nice to look at," said Nancy, smiling.
Life seems to be everywhere. A once lifeless yard is now a blossoming, green garden.
The couple says they are stronger than before, and Nancy and Daniel's home is too. They now have a new roof, chimney, stoop and windows. However some things never change.
"What she loves to do is have me make her a new flower garden," laughs Daniel.
"My husband says he doesn't want a new flower garden, but I'm sure he'll give in," laughs Nancy.
Sure enough, Daniel said, "Yes." At the end of the day, neither relent on what matters most.
"I want to finish and get our life back to normal," said Nancy.
"We'll still keep on going," said Daniel.

Balanta men leaving for Fanado
Balanta men preparing to take to the woods for a Fanado (male circumcision) ceremony. The ceremony takes place once every four years. It's a two-month process in the "sacred woods" which the Balanta believes opens the doors of maturity and wisdom. We were there for the first day of the Fanado ceremony which is a general festival for the entire village during which people eat drink and dance.

Women's Bush Poplin Convertible Pants 27 27
Perfect pants for Africa Love the fabric and fit. I had been looking at these pants because the mornings in Africa can be cool but the afternoons can be quite hot. To be able to pack one pair of convertible pants instead of one pair of long pants and one pair of shorts is ideal. February 12, 2014
safari perfect for a safari with zip off legs for the change in climate from cold mornings to warm afternoons May 1, 2014
Comfy....Fabric washes & dries well If you are a "Boomer" or not, that needs a fuller fit these Convertible Pants are for you. I'm 66 years of age, 5'3", thicker in the waist & butt, weigh 175 lbs & very active. I ordered the Petite & had to let the hem down as much as I could, about 1/2" to have a comfortable length for my height. I would have ordered a Regular & shortened them but the legs have zippers at the ankle & that alteration is MUCH more difficult. The cotton Poplin fabric is of good quality that washes & dries well. If you are particular about little wrinkles & know what an Iron is used for, they may need a tad of ironing on the seams but you can easily get away without using that dreaded four letter word IRON at all :o ) February 18, 2014
Great Convertible Pants These pants are exactly what I wanted for an upcoming African safari. I found the fit to be true to size in all regards, and I was so glad they came in petite. I'm only 4'11", so they were a little long still. I turned up the hems, which means the zippers can't be fully closed, but I don't think that will be a problem. May 12, 2014
Material too heavy I wanted these pants along with the jacket for a trip to Africa but I think the material is to heavy and would be very hot to wear so I returned the item May 7, 2014
nice pants I have a couple pair of these pants from 2009. What I especially like is that these zip-off pants are more substantial than the nylon shells I can find elsewhere. Although the colors are described the same way they were in 2009, they are different. The 'olive' is browner than it was, and the beige is also somewhat different. I find this a positive feature, as I now have 4 colors. One caution: the 2013 size 12 fits like the 2009 size 10. I needed to exchange tghe first new ones I ordered. May 10, 2013
Size was great. Have trouble getting the waist and hips to fit in pants. These fit both areas just great. Even the length was perfect. They were a little over my budget and so I waited awhile before I ordered them, but really am glad I decided to go for it! March 9, 2014
wish I would rather have an elastic waist, more pockets (rear & leg) and lighter material, but the fit is exactly right. I would recommend to women who like a' to fit' waistline. The pants you have with an elastic waist did not suit my needs. Material is excellent, but not for a warmer climate. March 6, 2014

With starting quarterback E.J. Manuel in the locker room with an injury, the Florida St. Seminoles turned to redshirt freshman backup Clint Trickett to make up a 13-3 difference against the Oklahoma Sooners. He was able to get something of a drive going, but a vicious Tony Jefferson blitz forced a third-and-long and ended a promising effort.
Still, golden-toed FSU kicker Dustin Hopkins, perhaps the best kicker in the country, was able to launch a 46-yard field goal to bring the Seminoles within a touchdown, making it 13-6.
Neither offense has been able to get much going. I keep saying that, but it remains true. Even blue-chipper Landry Jones has only 109 yards on 17 attempts, plus two interceptions. If you were expecting a defensive battle, you're probably satisfied with what's happening at Doak Campbell.

CRYING and pleading with magistrate Terry Lucas in Orange Local Court on Thursday, Luke Andrew Turner realised he had made a big mistake by stealing a tracksuit hours earlier in the central business district.
In doing so Turner, 31, was in breach of 10 section 12 good behaviour bonds which had been imposed by the court last year.
I don't want to be here," Turner told Mr Lucas sobbing.
"I don't know why I did it," he said.
In sentencing Turner Mr Lucas said because the accused had not obeyed the law he no alternative other than to send him to jail.
Mr Lucas sentenced Turner to 12 months in jail with a non-parole period of six months on the charge of breaching the bonds.
He then imposed a second 12 months' jail sentence with the same non-parole period on the charge of shoplifting.
Turner continued to plead with the magistrate.
"I could not do any better than that for you sir if you were my own brother," Mr Lucas said.
Turner will be eligible for release in August this year.

Fiskars and Duck Tape are teaming up to make the world smarter and more colorful together.
It's so easy with the new Fiskars® Duck® Edition scissors!
Making floral picks takes just a few simple materials. First you'll want to gather some sentiment stamps, ink, and a variety of cardstock, some small ready-made embellishments and dimensional foam adhesive. A hot glue gun is helpful too.
For this set of decorative handmade embellishments, we layered bright colors of cardstock punched using a several sizes of the Seal of Approval Squeeze Punch. You can use regular adhesive or foam dimensional adhesive, or a combination of the two, between each layer. You'll notice that there is a great contrast in color from one layer to the next allowing each individual layer to add interest to the overall piece.
For this set of embellishments, we layered several sizes of the Round 'N Round Squeeze Punch. You'll notice also that we created five small notches around the circle so they resembled the shape of a sand dollar. Again, we used small ready-made embellishments as shown in the photo below to add even more interest and dimension to our pieces.
These particular ready-made embellishments are called Flower Button Dots, but can also be recreated using your medium sized punches and small pop-up punches. These add lots of interest with the addition of the buttons and bling.
If you choose to put a sentiment on your floral pick, you'll want to trim a piece of patterned paper to ¾" x 8". Use your scissors to create a triangular notch in one end so it looks like a banner flag. Then choose your sentiment stamp, place it on a clear block, ink it up and stamp. I highly recommend using waterproof Ink, so if your recipient gets a small amount of water on the sentiment portion of the floral pick while watering their plant the ink won't run and ruin the image. After, stamping, you'll then place adhesive on the entire backside of the stamped image, bend in half without pressing together, place the slight fold on a wooden skewer and secure.
Speaking of wooden skewers, you'll want to use either thin dowel rods (available at most craft and hardware stores) or use wooden food skewers (available at your local grocery store). If you want to have two floral picks in the same pot or want to put one in a smaller pot of flowers, they will look best if you cut the skewer to a shorter size. This is easily accomplished using the Cuts + More Scissors.
I recommend using a low-temp hot glue gun to attach your embellishments to your wooden skewers. You can also place a punched circle or scalloped circle on the back, sandwiching the skewer between the layers of cardstock and to give a more finished overall appearance.
Another fun alternative to embellishing the layered scalloped circle base is to layer a few different sizes of pinwheels on top. If you have the Jenni Bowlin Pinwheel Squeeze Punch you can use that to create the smaller pinwheel.
To make a pinwheel of any size, you'll first cut your patterned paper into a square or use a square punch of any size, depending on how small/large you want your pinwheel. Use your 1/16" hand circle punch to put a small hole in the center of the square. Starting at each point of the square, make a cut in toward the center, stopping just shy of the center. Place a glue dot over the center hole. Fold the right corner of each triangle in toward the center adhering to the glue dots. Embellish the center with a button, brad or an adhesive-backed rhinestone. Fluff and shape your pinwheel as necessary.
For this pick, we took the layered scalloped circle and circle embellishments and added a little more interest to it by including a leaf shape punched from the Branch Out XX-Large Lever Punch.
Here is a good peek at the short version of the floral picks. These work great in pots that have a low-profile foliage and especially look amazing tucked into little pots of succulents.
Happy floral pick making!

We're told the car lost control, went into a side skid and then went into the southbound lane of Lamesa.
The car was then hit by a Dodge truck.
Jackson was pronounced dead at the scene.

Praying for everyone in Israel—
Kim Kardashian (@KimKardashian) November 16, 2012
Earlier today, Twitchy called attention to Kim Kardashian's tweet offering prayers to the people of Israel.
That tweet resulted in a torrent of hateful tweets, including death wishes.
Kardashian tried to mollify the anti-Israel mob with this:
And praying for everyone in Palestine and across the world!—
Kim Kardashian (@KimKardashian) November 16, 2012
Now both of those tweets are gone from Kardashian's Twitter account. But Twitchy is forever.
Anti-Israel tweeters are mocking her:
Ha! Kim Kardashian has deleted her Palestine sympathy tweet! Was right to be unconvinced & she didn't have the stones to stand by her words!—
Abdullah Moallim (@El_AbdullahX) November 16, 2012
Hahaha @KimKardashian deleted her tweets, must have had SERIOUS backlash from her idiotic uninformed tweets.—
Faayza Haq (@faayza) November 16, 2012
@miss_habibti @kimkardashian Lool she's deleted those tweets, the dumb idiot shouldn't talk about what she doesn't understand—
A (@haya_muslimah) November 16, 2012
Update: Kardashian has now apologized for the tweets.

Let's start with some reasonable assumptions:
- There is no atmosphere on the Moon, so there is no atmospheric scattering, so stars should be visible
- BUT, if one has a bright object in the field of view (i.e. the Sun), one cannot see the stars
- AND, lunar surface is bright, and the visor glass is darkened, so only the brightest stars would be seen (if any)
Okay, Let us now see the sky at the Apollo 11 landing:
The image was rendered using Stellarium. The view is straight up, and the azimuth grid is included. The horizon circle is marked by letters N-S-E-W (which also represent cardinal directions), so objects inside the circle are above the horizon and those outside are below the horizon. Bright stars and planets are labeled. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out how to change the regional settings to English, so the time is given as GMT+2 and all labels are in Polish Most of the planetary names are similar; here's a dictionary of non-obvious ones: Słońce = Sun, Ziemia = Earth, Księżyc = Moon.
For simplicity, I took date and time for landing, not EVA, but the Moon rotates slowly enough that I don not expect this to significantly influence the appearance of the sky.
Anyway. You can see that most bright stars are close to the Sun: in azimuth, Rigel and Sirius are 40-45 degrees away; Betelgeuse is 20 degrees away; Procyon even less than that; Capella is 30 degrees away. There is no way one can see any of these, without the Sun getting into his field of view. To make matters worse, Rigel, Betelgeuse and Capella are at 50 degrees elevation; I am not quite familiar with the mechanics of Apollo suit, but I presume that it would not allow the astronaut to look so high up.
The only bright star which is a good distance away from the Sun (115 degrees), and at reasonable elevation (15 degrees) is Achernar. There is also Canopus nearby, but it is so low over the horizon that it could be either obscured by terrain, or, the bright terrain would get into the observers' field of view and prevent him from seeing the star.
Let's now look at the Apollo 17 sky:
A rich star field with Hadar is located 50 degrees away from the Sun, between 10 and 30 degrees over the horizon. Procyon is 160 degrees away, effectively on the opposite side of the sky, 12 degrees above the horizon. Vega is 60 degrees from the Sun, 12 degrees above the horizon. That means that more bright stars are away from the Sun and at a reasonable elevation, making their observation much easier.
So, I believe that the positions of bright stars during Apollo 17 were much more favorable for viewing than during Apollo 17. I also believe that this is a sufficient explanation for the phenomenon described in the quote at the beginning of this post.

Breech Position
A fetus with the feet, buttocks, or legs pointing down toward the cervix is said to be in breech position. Before birth, most breech fetuses change position so that the head points downward, but some breech fetuses stay in breech position late into the third trimester (the last part of pregnancy).
A medical procedure called external cephalic version can sometimes successfully turn a breech fetus to head-down position before delivery. A cesarean section is recommended for most breech deliveries.

WoW! What a gotacha title -- I was confident that I would be reading about how a certain famous atheist had just died and gone to Hell, and was forced to admit (too late to do him any good, of course) that the Christ Whom he rejected on Earth was not only his Creator (John 1:1-3) but also his eternal Judge. Please tell Dr. Dawkins that ICR's Dr. Jim Johnson would like to interview her by email -- my email address here at teh Institue for Creation Research is email@example.com -- thanks!

General Motors Co. is recalling 38,197 Chevrolet Malibu Eco, Buick LaCrosse and Buick Regal sedans in the U.S. because a defective battery control module could stall the engine or cause a fire.
Vehicles from the 2012 and 2013 model years equipped with GM's eAssist hybrid system are affected. Vehicles built after December 2012 are not part of the recall.
GM says some vehicles may have a malfunctioning generator control module that causes a gradual loss of battery power and stalls the engine. If the module overheats, it could cause smoke or fire in the trunk.
GM will notify owners and repair the module for free.
The company knows of two trunk fires related to the issue, which happened in the first 1,000 miles of operation. No injuries have been reported.

Lie of the Year: the Romney campaign's ad on Jeeps made in China
By Angie Drobnic Holan
Published on Wednesday, December 12th, 2012 at 4:00 p.m.
It was a lie told in the critical state of Ohio in the final days of a close campaign -- that Jeep was moving its U.S. production to China.
It originated with a conservative blogger, who twisted an accurate news story into a falsehood. Then it picked up steam when the Drudge Report ran with it. Even though Jeep's parent company gave a quick and clear denial, Mitt Romney repeated it and his campaign turned it into a TV ad.
And they stood by the claim, even as the media and the public expressed collective outrage against something so obviously false.
PolitiFact has selected Romney's claim that Barack Obama "sold Chrysler to Italians who are going to build Jeeps in China" at the cost of American jobs as the 2012 Lie of the Year. Click here to read the full story.
