You can choose from a rainbow of fresh produce here each week at the Pullman Square Farmer's Market or six days a week at Huntington's first local food market, The Wild Ramp.
"Right now we have lots of zucchini, cucumbers, so many different varieties of greens as well as we're starting to have tomatoes come in, and squash," Raine Klover, Communications and Outreach manager for The Wild Ramp, said
There are many benefits to shopping a farmers market.
"It tastes better," Russel Prichard, who runs the Pullman Square Farmer's Market each Wednesday from now through October, said. "This is ripe on the vine. It's pulled up one day we sell it the next day."
He said about the goods they sell. It comes from about a 50-mile radius of Huntington, so it's about as fresh as you can get.
"We have onions that were just picked today that are in baskets waiting to be bought," Klover said.
Less travel time often means less cost to the consumer, and the money you spend locally helps support the local economy.
"You're supporting your friends and neighbors when you're buying food from the Wild Ramp," Klover said.
Most markets offer more than just fruits and veggies. The Wild Ramp, which moved from Heritage Station to a bigger location in Central City this spring, has local meat, dairy products, baked goods, and even pasta.
"I come in and wander around and think, 'Hmmm what will we have for dinner tonight?' Last night it was brats," Denise Pittenger said.
She not only shops here, she's also an artisan and a volunteer.
"It's nice to have a place where things are fresh and people are concerned about their health," she said.
The demand for locally grown food continues to increase.
"People are more interested in buying stuff that's not got so much herbicides in it," said Prichard.
"I think there's a great demand and swelling need of people that want to eat better and they want to get out and be more active," Klover said. "I think you can see that, because we have succeeded and I'm really excited to be a part of that movement here.
People are also getting better access to local growers. There are 130 producers at the Wild Ramp, and their neighbor, Central City Farmer's Market is set to open this weekend.
"We're excited to be working in the same space as them, and their customers are going to find out about the Wild Ramp, and Wild Ramp customers are going to find out all the different things that they have to offer as well, I think it's going to be a really beneficial partnership for both of us," Klover said.
You can stop by to pick out a new fruit or vegetable, and if you don't know how to prepare it, just ask your favorite producer.
The Wild Ramp is located on 14th Street West, and their hours are Monday - Friday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Central City Market, located behind The Wild Ramp, is open Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, 7 a.m. until sold out. The Pullman Square market is open each Wednesday through late October from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.

MSU Extension to host webinars on weed removal
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
MSU Extension educators will be hosting webinars explaining an alternative to herbicides to manage weeds that grow in orchards and vineyards.
Managing ground cover in orchards and vineyards is important for reducing competition among fruit crops and non-crop plants or weeds. In young plantings, weeds compete for sunlight, water and nutrients resulting in smaller trees and vines. In mature plantings, weed competition can result in smaller fruits and lower yields.
Although managing weeds is necessary, using herbicides poses some challenges. For example, repeated use of the same herbicide may result in weed resistance to the herbicide. If not applied carefully, herbicide injury to trees and vines may occur. In certified organic systems, approved herbicides are not as effective as their conventional counterparts.
The webinars will be held from 12 to 3 p.m. March 4 and 5. More information on the webinars and weed removal can be found here.

"Somebody oughta belt you in the mouth, but I won't. I won't. (punches) The hell I won't!"The enemy is taunting you. He's making fun of your parentage and the size of your manhood. Nevertheless, you start walking away from the confrontation. Maybe you're severely outnumbered or maybe you just want to be the better man. After all, Jesus said, "Turn the other cheek." But Jesus didn't have his girlfriend watching and wondering whether sex with you was a mistake or not. Suddenly you turn the other fist and strike, taking your enemy totally off guard. Turning the other fist is sure to surprise your enemy and give you an edge in a uneven fight. It's one of the few dirty tricks a Hero can pull off because that moment of turning away seems to involve a deep moral conflict, even when it doesn't. A subtrope of I Surrender, Suckers
— George Washington McLintock

Over the last few months I've debated on continuing to do the label and its weird to say that August will be the last month for the foreseeable future. I've loved everything about doing this but its time to move on and possibly come back at a later date.
But with most endings there are new beginning, I'm very happy to announce that me and my friend Drew are opening a mini golf and arcade zone in the city of Philadelphia. Its been a wild ride but I hope you continue to follow my journey into this world.
I would like to thank everyone who has EVER helped out evil weevil, everyone band, every journalist, every friend, every follower, ever customer, every person that came out to the road to ruins, every publicist, our distributor, other labels, everyone thank you. Your support has helped me through a lot of dark timelines.
here is the 5th song on the LP, "heather w."
Crazy Ambrose
Seeing Ambrose wrestle in front of 25 people to seeing him wrestle in front of 75,000 is incredible. I guess this is the equivalent of saying "I like the demo more", or "I saw them in a basement".

Pocketknife is a band from Yorba Linda, CA, playing music that sounds like it should have been released on Sub Pop in the 90s. Keeping in that vein, this 7" single was recorded with Jack Endino (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Seaweed, etc.), and it sure sounds like it. Both songs bring a great combination of heavily distorted hooks with shouted vocals, likely to please fans of Superchunk and Sebadoh. 200 copies on clear purple vinyl, the rest on black, with full-color glue-pocket covers.

The article...
JONESBORO, Ga. (AP) - Clayton County police say they are looking for two assault rifles stolen from a police squad car.
Clayton County Police Department spokeswoman Lt. Rebecca Brown says the police car was one of three broken into at the same apartment complex. Brown says the thieves tore open a door to get into the trunk. Brown says the two submachine guns were taken from the trunk in the Thursday night theft.
She says the other two cars were a Clayton County Sheriffs Office patrol car and a civilian car. What was taken from those cars was not released.

Submachine guns? I'm tempted to dismiss this since the press doesn't know one gun from another. Whaddya think? Do they really have full autos in their trunk?

Uh-Oh! Not good. All we need to do now is find the responsible parties. Who's responsible for their weapons? Anyone?
Generally speaking, that's true.I'm tempted to dismiss this since the press doesn't know one gun from another.
Though, as .308's have value at certain scenes, so would subs.
I'm sure the LEO's in the crowd could speak to this, from experience.

Assault Weapons Stolen from Police Cars
Updated: Monday, 07 Sep 2009, 5:09 AM EDT
Published : Monday, 07 Sep 2009, 5:09 AM EDT
* Edited by Steve DIxon
ATLANTA - High-powered assault weapons were stolen from police cars and a U.S. Army soldier's vehicle.
The law enforcement and military gear could now be on the streets of metro Atlanta.
Clayton County police want to find the person who broke into one of their squad cars and made off with some heavy weaponry.
The SWAT officer was parked in his apartment complex off of Jonesboro road when the thieves struck early Thursday morning.
Detectives said the robbers opened the car's drivers' side door and then popped the latch to get access to the trunk.
Investigators said around the same time a sheriff deputy's vehicle was broken into a vehicle belonging to an army soldier were also broken into.
According to the police report, missing are a MP5 machine gun, a Bushmaster XM15 machine gun, three bullet proof vests -- one of which says sheriff on the back -- another U.S. Army, and a military ID and a Kevlar helmet.
Investigators are working hard to get the weapons and armor back where they belong.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.

so thrilled to introduce my new sports romance series,
Game On in Seattle, which will include subseries for
Seattle Sockeyes hockey, Seattle baseball, and a brand-new football
It's never easy to leave the comfort of the known for the unknown. Skating on Thin Ice is my first foray into indie publishing. You'll notice some fun changes, such as old characters returning from previously published books. In the case of Skating on Thin Ice, Brad Reynolds, who first appeared in my Evergreen Dynasty series as the party-boy Reynolds brother, is Ethan's best friend.
I'm a huge Seattle sports fan, which comes as no surprise to those of you who've hung out on my Facebook or Twitter or read my former series. I've been crossing all my toes and fingers that Seattle will get a professional hockey team in the near future. Since that hasn't happened yet, I decided to create that very scenario in my fictional world with the Seattle Sockeyes.
(Seattle Sockeyes--Game on in Seattle #1)
Projected release date: September 29 (available for preorder)
He trusts his gut, she trusts her numbers, and neither trusts the
other, as a billionaire's mission to bring hockey to Seattle clashes
with his passion for the woman who holds his heart.
Ethan Parker, a billionaire determined to bring a professional
hockey to Seattle, will stop at nothing to realize his dream. After
signing an agreement to purchase another city's team, Ethan
is anxious to make the move to Seattle, but a gag order by the
League forces him to keep the sale a secret until the season ends,
leaving him no choice but to go undercover as a consultant to study
his team during the playoffs.
Lauren Schneider, Assistant Director of Player Personnel for the
Giants hockey team, gets no respect from the team's
testosterone-loaded staff. When Ethan bursts onto the scene, full of
charm and genuinely interested in her opinions, she shares the
team's weaknesses and discovers a weakness of her own--for Ethan.
But when his true identity is revealed, and he starts cleaning house
based on her unwitting input, his betrayal cuts deeply on both a
professional and personal level. Bound by an employment contract,
Lauren reluctantly moves to Seattle to work for the newly christened
Seattle Sockeyes and her sexy, infuriating boss.
Lauren and Ethan must come to terms with their passions--for the team, for hockey, and for each other. Will their situation build a frozen wall between them, or will their love burn hot enough to melt the ice shielding their hearts?
Love is the name of the game in this limited-edition boxed set of sizzling sports romances. Twelve New York Times bestselling, USA Today bestselling, and award-winning authors put you right in the action with scintillating stories of hot athletes and the women who prove love is the ultimate game-changer.
They're all hometown heroes, guys from small
towns who've made a name for themselves, big or small, who've
withstood the odds and risen to the challenge, who are heroes in
their own right.
Presenting a contemporary romance bundle of 16 novels with happily ever after endings, including previously published readers' favorites and brand-new material.

Is there life after football?
One hard hit too many has forced Branson Bullock into early retirement. His future looks bleak, and he's struggling with what's next, since he's never planned for a life off the field.
Sarah Largo escaped an abusive relationship and has reinvented herself with plenty of hard work and an attitude makeover. As Branson's housekeeper, she keeps his home spotless, plans his parties, and cooks his meals, but her bad case of hero-worship for the former football star is Sarah's delicious little secret.
Tired of moping around his house, Branson impulsively invites Sarah to dinner, never expecting the sparks that flare between them. Intrigued, he pursues Sarah with all the strategy and determination he ever put to use on the football field, but hero-worship aside, Sarah is still struggling with confidence issues and worries she isn't worthy of a good man's love.
Have their pasts broken them beyond repair, or is a new life—together—just beginning?

Linux 2.6.26-rc6 Kernel Released
Published on 12 June 2008 06:20 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Linux Kernel
Comment On This Article
We're almost nearing an end to the Linux 2.6.26 kernel development with now six release candidates, but Linus Torvalds notes in his
mailing list announcement
that there are still more changes late in the game than what he'd ideally like to see. Between
Linux 2.6.26-rc5
and Linux 2.6.26-rc6 have been 350 commits. As usual, most of the changes have taken place within the driver and architecture sections of the Linux kernel.
While it will still be a few weeks before the Linux 2.6.26 kernel is out the door, once the commit window for Linux 2.6.27 opens up there is a lot to get excited about -- especially
kernel-based mode-setting
. Also of benefit to driver developers in Linux 2.6.27 will be the inclusion of MMioTrace.

For a while, it looked like we had the 2013 Oscar host locked down. After a disappointing few years (Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin felt constrained, Anne Hathaway and James Franco were a flat out disaster, and Billy Crystal was kind of creaky last year), it seemed like we'd be getting some fresh blood, and that did seem to have been the case: "Saturday Night Live" mastermind Lorne Michaels was said to have been approached, and was planning on bringing on one of his former stars, "Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon.
But ABC parent company Disney objected to the idea of giving a competitor a free plug and Fallon was ruled out, with Michaels exiting talks soon after, so they're back to square one again. So with the position vacant, we thought we'd use this week's Oscar column to make a few suggestions. Agree? Disagree? Got your own possibilities? Let us know in the comments section below.
Why He Could Do It: The most popular Oscar host of the modern era, Hugh Jackman has both old-school entertainer charms (including the ability to pull off a song and a dance), and appeal to the kids thanks to his role as Wolverine (and with a new film with the character coming up in 2013, the publicity reminder would be a boon). His 2009 hosting gig was one of the most enjoyable in recent memory, and after several disappointing years in a row, the Academy are sure to want him back more than ever.
Why He Might Not: It's been suggested that he's basically been top of the list for the last few years and has turned it down for various reasons. Would this year be any different? This year would also be particularly tricky as he's the lead of one of the hotly tipped contenders, "Les Miserables," and may well be in the running for Best Actor. That wouldn't be unprecedented (James Franco was a nominee two years ago for "127 Hours"), but this is much more high profile, and the Academy might see it as favoritism to pick Jackman this time around. He's currently filming "The Wolverine" and would presumably be free after that, but he is also eyeing a return to Broadway for "Houdini" sometime in the year, so that might be an issue too.
Why He Could Do It: One of the Academy's most beloved favorites, Tom Hanks has always shone when presenting at the ceremony, able to pull off both gravitas and humor. Indeed, he's also one of the best-loved hosts in "Saturday Night Live" history, which is something that should, in theory, be a serious qualification for the job; being able to cope with live TV and pull off wacky moments too.
Why He Might Not: Hanks is first and foremost an actor, and may not be so keen to play host for an evening like this. Indeed, it's been a long time since an A-lister of Hanks' calibre hosted the awards (although one could argue that Jackman is a recent precedent). Maybe his relationship with Lorne Michaels would have encouraged him, but now that Michaels is out, it's less likely. One shouldn't forget that Hanks is also starring in "Cloud Atlas," which could turn out to be an awards contender; it's less of a major speed bump than with Jackman, but could still be an issue if the film builds awards season steam. He's also not the box office force that he used to be: would he really bring in the younger audience that the Academy craves so much? He'll also have promotional duties for "Captain Phillips," which opens in March, looming as well.
FAN JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE | September 22, 2012 10:41 AM
Justin Timberlake to host oscar 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nara | September 20, 2012 7:49 AM
EMMA STONE! and I agree about pairing her up with an older co-host.. Like Colin Firth! Would be awesome!
Chris | August 18, 2012 7:11 PM
I want Triumph the Insult Dog to host the Oscars.
cadavra | August 15, 2012 5:00 PM
He won't bring in "the kids," but Nathan Lane has hosted the Tonys a couple of times and is funny, charming-yet-edgy and incredibly quick on his feet. But in The Real World, yeah, my pick would be Ferguson.
caro | August 15, 2012 4:32 PM
no host!
simon | August 15, 2012 4:12 PM
Jon Hamm !! Perfect choice for me...universal appeal...both from the younger generation and the older one. Also, great when he's hosting SNL...great witt and comic timing. Lots of presence and prestige....also very respected by his peers...could bring out some colleagues he worked multiple time with !
FOR A DUO OF HOST : Kristen Wiig and Jon Hamm
Wes | August 15, 2012 3:08 PM
Anybody but Ferguson! But really, I want Adams to do it! I'm in love with her.
NPB | August 15, 2012 2:59 PM
I'd like Bryan Cranston to do it, or at least be part of the show. As much as I like JGL, any time he does a presenting or hosting job, he always appears high (and most likely is) and I think that might get a bit tedious with a long show like this!
Tina | August 15, 2012 2:41 PM
Is Anne Hathaway blamed because she's a woman? The last time I checked, Anne gave the show much energy it needed, while her co-host looked intoxicated the entire night and wasn't present. So, why is she being blamed for everything?
sp | August 15, 2012 2:25 PM
I will watch Albert Brooks do anything. He is brilliant. I am still mad he wasn't nominated for " Drive." Sadly, the very overrated Jonah Hill took his place.
Tim | August 15, 2012 2:19 PM
I don't understand why Anne Hathaway is blamed for hosting the Oscars. She was dealing with a comatose Co-host, bad writing, and a hideously produced show. She gave the show the energy that it needed. Hugh Jackman & Hathaway were magic together when he hosted the Oscars. They have great chemistry and wonderful comedic timing- plus they are live performers.
Please, no , overrated Emma Stone. Trust me, Emma will give the same over-the -top deer in headlights look. What is Playlist fascination with the limited Stone ? She is likable, but that is it.
Jack | August 15, 2012 2:00 PM
Larry David, Will Ferrell, Louis CK, Robert Downey Jr., Kevin Spacey, Stephen Colbert, Ben Stiller, Albert Brooks, Conan O'Brien, Jim Carrey.
There's so many that could be good, but I want a really great host. How about Lars von Trier? LOL
Eoin Daly | August 15, 2012 1:29 PM
Amy Adams would be cool especially if the supporting actress race pans out like we think it will they should try get Anne Hathaway to co-host, could you imagine the comic gold if both loose or one wins. I don't think Anne will host again but she could also co-host with Hugh Jackman and we could get some great duets. All I'm saying is Anne was a good host but it was Franco that ruined that show.
Tom | August 15, 2012 1:06 PM
I agree with Amanda that Robert Osbourne would be a good choice. Also pretty much anyone on Playlist's list except for the Apatow players, Adams and Jackman. The latter two are big contenders for nominations this year. It was too awkward when Franco was nominated and a host (but that was the least of his problems).
Christian | August 15, 2012 12:51 PM
Craig Ferguson is awesome, but I don't think he fits what the academy would look for. JGL Emma Stone combo would be good. JGL has personality unlike Franco. If you've seen him host the hit record events he does a great job. Plus he has an endless amount of celebrity friends to help out. Emma Stone is like the definition of a great personality. I still think Colbert, and John Stewart would be awesome! I don't really watch their shows, but whenever they're on an awards show they steal the show every time.
BEF | August 15, 2012 12:47 PM
Kevin Spacey & Tina Fey
Louis CK because why not?
Arch | August 15, 2012 12:27 PM
I really don't see why Craig Ferguson doesn't have the job already. It's a no-brainer here, he is the one.
Amanda | August 15, 2012 12:20 PM
I say get Robert Osbourne from TCM to do it. Yeah yeah it wouldn't bring in young people, but Im tired of trying to please the younger audience let them have the mtv awards. Osbourne knows everything about movies and it would be a least an interesting and informative awards show.

Sir Ken Robinson to join #artsed Chat on 5/22More Related Discussions
4 Replies 1128 Views
Sometimes it pays to just ask. During a recent #artsed Chat on Twitter, we were discussing Sir Ken Robinson's ideas on how schools kill creativity. I knew he had a Twitter account, but there weren't many postings. I had met him a few times. In fact, a couple of years ago, my organization at the time hosted Sir Ken for a conference on Creativity and Education. So, I gave it a shot. I got in touch with his agent who put me in touch with his assistant and he said, "yes." That was it. I hope you're able to join us for this week's chat. I will come back and post the topic he chooses. He has a new TED talk and is working on a book so I can't wait to hear what he's been thinking about. If you're interested in seeing what we talk about on #artsed Chat, I have created an archive of transcripts at http://www.creativityandassociates.net/artsed-chat-archive/ The lesson of this story? Just ask. The worst that can happen is that the answer is "no."

Lucky Strike Debuts in San Francisco
When Lucky Strike opens in SoMa this weekend, it may be the first time the words "stylish" and "bowling alley" are used in the same sentence. But this chic entertainment spot at 200 King St. is not your typical 10-pin, sweaty-shoe rental, 1950s artifact. In fact, owner Steven Foster doesn't care if you bowl or not when you visit—and you won't either.
Foster has hired design genius Ray Azoulay (creator of Los Angeles' Obsolete Gallery and collaborator on many high-profile interiors) to create a spot described as "gastro pub meets funhouse," complete with a dining room, bar, collaborative trivia game and, of course, bowling lanes. Foster has a string of Lucky Strikes across the country, but when he wandered into Azoulay's gallery (both men live and work in Venice), he decided he wanted to do something different and more handcrafted.

- "I will tell you, a secret lore."
- ―Allen Avadonia[src]
Regret Message is a song released by Akuno-P on May 25, 2008. It is the third song in Story of Evil, following after the events of The Servant of Evil.
The song starts in a harbor outside a town where Riliane stands alone. She recalls a legend that Allen once told her that states that if she writes a wish, puts it inside a bottle and throws it out to sea, her wish will come true. As such, Riliane writes down a wish in a bottle and sets it out herself. Recalling on her past, she regrets her actions as she realizes how selfish she was and how Allen would follow her every command, even when it caused him pain. She hopes the ocean will express her gratitude. She writes her wish with the words, "if I could be reborn."
Kagamine Rin's VOCALOID2 voicebank is utilized. The original song utilized the sounds of waves, tambourine, french horn, musicbox, strings, viola, claps, steel drums, drums, guitar, and electric piano.The song uses a scale of F sharp minor and tranposes to A minor for the chorus, a tempo of 115 bpm, and a meter of 4/4. The song uses the following pattern:
Sound - (Instrum.) ; V - PreC - C; V - PreC - C ;(break); V - PreC - C;(Instrum.); Refrain - Coda;(Instrum.)
The song starts with the sound of the waves and the instrumental, ending at 1.00. The songs repeats the sequence of a verse, pre-chorus (climbing verse to the chorus), and a chorus, three times. There is a break between the second and the third sequence to emphasize the character's hesitation, and after the last chorus at 3.07, there is an instrumental variation of the chorus to build up to the finale. The finale is made of the refrain and a coda. The song ends with the instrumental variation of the chorus beginning at 3.48.

The song Twiright Prank establishes an event in Riliane's childhood before her separation from Alexiel; it shows how she encounters the Demon of Gluttony.
The Daughter of EvilEdit
The Daughter of Evil relates the events for which Riliane wishes to repent, as it details her selfish ways and the sins she committed as queen of Lucifenia.
The Servant of EvilEdit
The Servant of Evil communicates the situation pushing Riliane to send out her wish, as it details the death of her brother; as well as the song containing a similar wish for the two twins to reincarnate together.
The Daughter of WhiteEdit
The Daughter of White relays occurrences that happen previously and during Regret Message, as it details Clarith coming to meet and, eventually, forgive Riliane

- The origin of the legend of the sea mentioned in the song is elaborated upon in Twiright Prank; its role and origin are further elaborated upon in the novels The Daughter of Evil: Clôture of Yellow and The Daughter of Evil: Wiegenlied of Green.
- In Re_birthday, Irregular receives a message, possibly alluding to the events of Regret Message.
- The glass bottle present in the song is referenced in Lu Li La, Lu Li La, The Resounding Song; a similar glass bottle appears in Moonlit Bear and Abandoned on a Moonlit Night.

I am hoping to get the heir poll completed for Kyra Winter and her OWBC. The blog has a three-way tie, but I also have voting up on Boolprop, which added to the blog poll puts Betsy and Olympia at a tie with 5 votes each.
Updates Around the Junkyard
As usual, not much going on. Stink heads to 5th grade in less than a week. Matt and Becca are having a boy and went off to a concert/festival in Oklahoma City today. A 15 hour concert pregnant? I cannot even comprehend that, but good luck, Becca!
My main doctor is undergoing shoulder surgery and will not be working for 6 months, which means my current occupation of doing almost nothing, will now be completely doing nothing. I am supposed to be taking over another practice for $16 an hour instead of my normal $0.08 a line, but who knows if that will actually work out. Auntie is on vac. this week in northern California anyway.
Computer had anther random meltdown. No one knows what caused it still.
Game updates – I lost all my games, Aion, Dead Space, Final Fantasy 3, 7 and 8 and Skyrim.
Sims is fine at least. I lost a couple of things made from July 19-22 which is where I had to "refresh" my computer too.
Game Updates for July:
Sims 3
Tart ISBI Chapter 2
Parker Alphabetacy Chapter 9
Vinson: Chapter 7, Gen. 9 Chapter 1
Sims 2
Time Marches On: 8 updates starting with Croze. It is now borked due to the rollback, but I am trying to save it.
Game Updates for August:
Sims 3
Tart ISBI: Chapter 3
Vinson: Chapter 2
Kilgore Super Speedy Rainbow Legacy: Here (must be registered to see).
Ocean Breeze and her OWBC: Chapter 1
Sims 2
Zombie Apocalypse using Phaenoh's rules. Chapter 1
Kyra Winter and her OWBC: Chapter 1
Game Updates
I have been really lax in keeping my updates on a regular schedule.
May saw me finally saving what families I could from the February/March hard drive issue. June saw a lot of Sims 2 being played also.
Sims 3:
On May 10, I recovered the Vinson family. By June 21, I knew something was wrong with Gemma and put up a poll. The results are in and a new heiress will be raised and nurtured.
May 18 – Lavender Wishes: Chapter 27 was posted up after having to age everyone up from a year old save I found.
June 15 found Cola-Fizz Tart leaving the ISBI to start a Perfect Genetics Challenge. So far there are six updates, starting here.
June 26 – Speaking of the Tart ISBI, they have had two updates. Chapter 1 on June 26 and Chapter 2 just a second ago on July 5.
There is nothing new for the Parker Alphabetacy. It keeps saying the game was saved with Expansion data no longer found. I have not added, deleted, or changed anything. I will get more indepth in fixing it later this month.
Sims 2:
For most of June, I have been doing a Test of Time Challenge for Sims 2 called Time Marches On. I have about 26 updates for it so far starting with the Croze household. Currently the generation 2 kids are hitting teen and the generation 3 kids are now being born.
In regards to Sims 4, I see nothing interesting and the rumors and arguments are getting old. As of right this minute, I will NOT be buying this stupid ass game.
Vinson Update
Yet again, the Vinson's have an issue. The family was found on a backup disc from last year. Gemma went from a college student back to a toddler. Upon aging up to child, then teen, it became clear that she had lost her genetics completely.
I put up a Poll to have you choose what should be done. With Sims 4 coming out in a few months, I really want to get this family completed.
Concordia 1 & 2
So, I have been working on my Parker Speedy Alphabetacy and my Midnight Sun Challenge (Post #1031 – Must be registered to view) when I saw the Lavender's in my save games from last year sometime that was found on an old backup disc.
When I entered that old save, I was happy to note that all buy Johnny had been born. I forced Ye to have the baby, a boy that I did name Johnny again and then aged up everyone to where they were in the last update. I put them in the same world as the Parker's, because I had spent a lot of time on it and I really like the sims I put in there.
Then I realized that story progression was not moving anyone around due to no housing. I decided to do a series of homes for spares and the townies.

Space provided for two sims, but you could possibly replace the office area with a nursery if you needed too. The bedroom does have space for a crib also.
I have a third one in progress. All are different house types from pseudo-modern to traditional. I am hoping to do about 10 of these, but who knows how far I will actually get.
New Hard Drive
The new hard drive is in. Good thing Old Guy keeps this shit laying around collecting dust. Plus my war with the internet company for the past five years finally culminated in me threatening their very existence about two weeks ago.
They finally came out and found out that I was paying $100 (yes triple digits) for 1 mb (highway robbery) but was only getting 25 kb/s. They called it an "office mishap", but now my nvidia driver update only took 30 minutes instead of the 3-4 hours. I should be back up and simming, work permitting, in the next 24 hours!
Everything and all my blogs are now a total loss. The light at the end of the tunnel is over at the Tart's blog. There are several option on how to proceed with them, so go on over and vote. I just posted up a new poll while waiting for updates to download.
Sad, Sad Day
Well, I had thought I was losing my graphics card for the past few weeks, but I got that sorted out a couple of days ago when I uninstalled the past 30 driver updates and reinstalled the newest one.
Today, it was apparent by the large "Insert Boot Device" message that it was my hard drive. In fact, it is my 3rd hard drive in two years. Of course, this one was decades old and sucked ass anyway.
The actual bad news of the day is that all my saves are now gone. Tart's, Vinson's, megahood. Sims 3 and Sims 2 alike. Old Guy says he will look at it after work, but I am not hopeful. What's even worse is that I have my Skyrim backups on my jump drive from the reformat a couple of months ago and so I never put my save back ups on there. I was always so diligent in at least keeping my Tart's and Vinson's though, so yeah. I suck.
Plus with the ear infection that I partially paid the $400 for I was told was gone. So, instead of being able to buy a hard drive, I will now be wasting my life paying for that. I'm moving to Canada where healthcare system isn't a piece of shit. All I have is my work laptop that can't do anything but turn on so I can type up my dictations and an old hard drive from a hacked xbox. Joy. I don't think it was more than 25gb, so no sims on that.
I will be consoling myself with chocolate, lots of foot stomping and curse words. I did get Pokemon Y on my hacked 3ds, so there is that to do at least.
Vinson Updated!
Rant Day
So, I reformatted my computer at the beginning of February. The goal was to fix some registry issues and also solve some unknown (as per Crash Log Analyzer) crashes in Sims 3. I ended up deleting my whole Sims 2 downloads folder so that I could start that fresh and more organized. I got Sims 2 installed completely and then got Sims 3 installed up to the Movie Pack of all things.
I then spent the past 5 days adding about 12,000 packages to Sims 2. No, that is no exaggeration. I then played for several days crash free. I had no interest in adding in Into the Future and just ignored it for over a week. Why? Because I DETEST the shit I have to go through as soon as it is installed. Superpatch was added with the base game, I also patch each individual game as I install them, so that is not the problem.
My problem is having to add 20 games to my DEP settings. Making sure to add that line in command prompt to allow this stupid ass game to use up more than 2gb of RAM and then, just to be safe, I have to do the LAA crap too. THEN, after all that is done, I have to install more than 630 sims3packs so that my store content can be used. Then, I have to hunt down all my non-EA worlds (in a zip file that is 20 gb) and add in all the ones that my legacies use. Then making sure all my saves are going to be found (Again in a zip file that is 200gb..okay not really, but it is super big..40+ saves). After that….Dealing with the shit from not having the correct CC for each save. No, I do have my mods folder saved, but something in there was crashing my game. So now, I get to spend the next 30 years of my life scouring through it and deleting it and starting over.
Then there is the fact that EA decided to patch twice and Twallan is retired. Sure, they have people taking over his stuff, but I don't know them. We can't call up Twallan to fix it if they fuck up his shit. So, no. I will not ever be patching past 1.63 unless something amazing and wonderful (like a monkey shitting gold) comes through the store. I am happy to hear that I do not need to patch up for the new venue that I might get next week.
And that is my rant of hate for the week. 166 store items installed. 400 to go! Oh and don't forget the hair! I have roughly 10,000 gbs of hair and makeup to add in next. I am also going to add in all my freakin roofs that I spent a month downloading last year too. I miss them! Ugh, give me two seconds and I'll find 100 other things to whine about too.
Maybe I will spend the day converting all my non-store items into package files. I am so filled with hate for sims3packs.
On another note, I was so worried about seeing if my Sims 2 BACC, Camden Legacy and 5 Want Challenge were working, that I installed everything needed to make a Megahood.
Hahaha. Cassandra Goth married Consort Capp. Amuses me every time I think of that. Of course, I have it so that only matching first initials can get married and Consort was the first "C" name Cassandra met. Alexander is gay and in love with an older Amin Sims. I am hoping he can find someone else though.
Thinking of Sims 2 put me in my happy place. Maybe I will leave Sims 3 for another week and go back in and play the Caliente's. Dina needs a D named man and so far Don is her only option, too bad Don has 3 bolts for Bella and is trying desperately to get in her pants.
New Legacies
I started up a dual legacy in the hopes of regaining interest in Sims.
The Camden Legacies have both finished their respective first generations.
One is Sims 2, the other is Sims 3. Sims 2 founder is Riley Camden and the Sims 3 founder is Kevin Camden.
Sims 2
Sims 3
It's going pretty good so far. I have had a couple of oopsies in Sims 2, but I think I got it sorted out. I do not like the scoring in sims 2 and I am thinking of changing it to be more like sims 3 with only points for Portraits, Cash, Aspiration points, Permaplat, since Sims 3 is so basic and Sims 2 is pretty hard.
I think I will even attempt impossible wants for both games at one point.
Also going strong in the Sims 2 department:
Pleasant Wishes is almost finished with Round 3, with only two more households before getting all the kids back from University.
Valley View BACC is still plugging away. Rotation 7, house 4 posted up the other day.
Other than that, I am having crashing issues in the other games. I had a week of problems that ended up being from a graphics driver update at the beginning of January. I never noticed it because it did not affect sims 2. It's all sorted out thanks to the help of friends at Sims Asylum. I am hoping to get back to them, I just have no timeframe of when that will be. At this point, I don't even miss them or think about them.
Oh and I am running out of things to read. Damn you people for completing legacies and stories! If you have something for me to read, post here and I will link it!

A Waukesha police officer resigned last month after he became the subject of an internal investigation for allegations of sexting with his wife while on duty, department officials said Wednesday.
Chris Massa resigned from the department Feb. 25 and gave his reason as a desire to pursue different endeavors. However, at the time of his resignation, he was under investigation for department rule violations related to personal conduct and photo-video recordings, Chief Russell P. Jack said in a news release.
Massa was accused of sexting — sending sexually oriented text messages or photos from a cellphone — in private areas of the department while he was on the job.
"The evidence that initiated the investigation was brought to our attention and was located on his wife's phone," Jack said. "No other personnel or citizens were involved in our investigation."
Massa opted to resign before being interviewed about the matter, which resulted in the investigation being closed, he said.
The chief added that the department believes it could have substantiated the allegations against Massa and that the investigation would have resulted in discipline up to and including termination.
"I am thoroughly disappointed in Mr. Massa," Jack said. "His actions tarnish the badge we are all proud to wear."

Agriculture in 'terrible crisis': Indian farmers are struggling to survive
Devinder Sharma | 25 August 2014 | food sovereignty, laws & policies | India
The effort by the World Trade Organization to reshape Indian agricultural policies comes at a time when Indian agriculture is faced with a terrible agrarian crisis. The environmental impacts of the intensively-farmed Green Revolution have become a full-blown crisis of sustainability. With soil fertility devastated, water tables plummeting as a result of relentless water mining, environmental contamination from excessive use and abuse of chemical pesticides, the entire farming equation has gone wrong.

GALLERY: Baby Evie is home for Christmas
Baby Evie recovers after latest surgery
Fundraising night planned for Bendigo's Stove family
THE Bendigo community is rallying behind baby Evie Stove.
We've sort of been in limbo land and now we're getting closer and closer.
Evie is just nine-months-old and has already survived nine cardiac arrests.
Evie and her mum Emily returned to Bendigo in time for Christmas after spending six months in Melbourne at the Royal Children's Hospital.
Emily said Evie is now growing and "in a good paddock" but her full heart repair is looming.
"They're planning for that 12 months," she said.
"They're trying to arrange a bit of a plan with the surgeon to see what the surgeon wants to do with her so we're going back next Wednesday to see what he has decided for Evie.
"We've sort of been in limbo land and now we're getting closer and closer."
It's been tough for the Stove family and they're not the type to ask for help.
But their friends want to show their support and have organised a fundraising event for Evie.
A trivia and auction night will be at the Strathfieldsaye Sports Club on Saturday from 7.30pm.
Tickets are $20 with more information available at events.ticketbooth.com.au/event/EvieStoveFundraising
Sarah King, one of the event organisers, is encouraging the Bendigo community to show its support.
"You don't want to see anyone struggle," she said.
"It was such a long period of time Evie was unable to be home for so we just want to try and make it a little bit easier for the family.
"With Emily not working for six months while Evie was in hospital, we want to help them try and catch up again.
"So we're having trivia and a silent auction and there will also be a band.
"Drinks will be at bar prices and finger food will be provided.
"We're at the halfway point with ticket sales so we've got more to sell."
Evie's mum Emily said her daughter was still relying on Continuous Positive Airway Pressure.
"We're sort of in Melbourne every three weeks now just for cardiology appointments," she said.
"They keep a close eye on her now because she's growing so we're back and forth a fair bit now.
"We have appointments with respiratory specialists and hopefully she'll be able to come off the ventilator a little bit more.
"She can eat food but she can't swallow liquids so we're trying to work on her being able to swallow."
Emily thanked the Bendigo community for its ongoing support.
"After all the stories in the Bendigo Advertiser about Evie I actually have people come up to me in the street asking how Evie is and things like that," she said.

Imaginary friend

DD told me today after kindy that she had a new friend. I said that was nice and asked her the friends name, she said "Zoe". I mumbled something else about that being a nice name. She then said "But you can't see her", "she told me she dissapears when other people come". She then told me "Zoe" was sitting in the carseat in the back of the car and that she could change colours so that's why I couldn't see her. I don't know why but I wanted to cry
Should I be worried? This is her 2nd term at kindy and I know it's been a huge change for her, she has often told e she doesn't have any friends at kindy but when I spoke to the teacher she said it's totally normal for them to say that.
Posted 07 February 2013 - 11:29 PM
Catalyst (ABC science show) did a story about it a few years ago. Here's the link:
Imaginary friends - ABC
DD1 had an imaginary friend called Toby when she was 2. He could be naughty (according to DD) but usually he was just a great conversationalist at quiet times.
Posted 07 February 2013 - 11:47 PM
I don't belong in this section, but I'm popping in to say that there's research to suggest that imaginary friends are a sign of a good imagination. It's normal and healthy!
Can you go early to kindy pickup and quietly observe your daughter's interactions with the other kids? Not sure if they encourage that.
Posted 07 February 2013 - 11:50 PM
Thankyou!! Gaah I feel a bit silly but I have been beside myself with worry all afternoon. Taking a deep breath now.

thanks, yes I probably can do that, although they are usually in 'group time' when I come to pick her up. I spend a bit of time at kindy and she seems just fine, playing 'alongside' other kids but from my older children, I remember that being quite usual at that age.
Posted 08 February 2013 - 12:00 AM
My now-4.5-year-old DD had an imaginary friend who first appeared around the time she turned three. It was also around the time DS was born and she started 3 year old kindy. Her friend was Zoe too!
DD's Zoe made sporadic appearances (ie: didn't seemed tied to any particular event, emotion, etc...). I assumed it was her way of coping with a lot of changes and as it didn't become obsessive in any way, I just left her to it. Zoe popped up again late last year for a few days but nothing since.
The clip Beltie posted is really good. Definitely a normal phase.
Posted 09 February 2013 - 02:16 AM
I had an imaginary friend! At one stage I had 3.
I don't remember them at all but my parents take great delight in reminding me of them.
Apparently they lived in a shoebox.
Posted 09 February 2013 - 02:30 AM
I too had an imaginary friend. His name was Ghostie and he lived under my bed and used to come with me to Kookaburra School. So I guess I had a whole imaginary life happening. I still remember it all and look back on those years (probably from a bit before I started school till around year 1) with some fondness.
Posted 09 February 2013 - 03:21 AM
So glad you posted this topic.
DS has just started playing with an imaginary friend the last few days. It doesn't have a name (but DS not big on naming things) but its a boy.
His only there sporadically.
Glad to read its normal. I've always has a super crazy imagination but never any imaginary friends..
Posted 09 February 2013 - 04:33 AM
Nothing to worry about at all.
DS got an imaginary friend for a while. However.... he borrowed Soren Lorenson, so I felt that negated any of the positives re creativity if he couldn't come up with his own friend!
Posted 09 February 2013 - 06:18 AM
I don't belong here either, but just wanted to say that both myself and DH had imaginary friends when we were little. We've both grown up to be just fine
Posted 09 February 2013 - 06:30 AM
I would be thrilled if DD had an imaginary friend!
Posted 10 February 2013 - 09:47 PM
My little sister at age of 4 had a friend..her name was sib sib..lasted a yr or two..my ds who is 3.5yrs has of late talks to a boy ..who has no name but called little boy and there's a little girl he talks to who is Annie..he is an old child so far and they aren't here all the time..but he also talks bout and at times sees our dog that past just over a yr ago..I just go along with him on it..maybe just see how your daughter goes over the next few months I'm sure it's nothing to be concerned bout, maybe if she was scared of her friend but doesn't sound she is..

DD (3.5) has an imaginary friend Kayon who is Naughty, apparently when she does things it was Kayons fault. When she first started on about him I freaked out thinking ghosts lol.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 02:15 PM
My DD (now 5 1/2) has had an imaginary friend for over 2 1/2 years now. Sometimes we hear about him a lot, sometimes not so much, but he is clearly still present. She doesn't actually play with him, but but she can recount endless stories about the things she has done with him.
I often egg her on with questions because it is great fun to hear what she can come up with on the spot.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 10:19 PM
I posted a very similar question about DS and his imaginary friend a few months ago.
'Tom' is still with us and is a confidante and companion for DS. He accompanies us on outings etc, but is also able to pop across the world to visit DS's grandparents and cousins etc.
'Tom' seems to be a positive thing and certainly gives me a lot of insight into how DS thinks about change and events in his life. We seem to have 'Tom' more when DS is anxious about things e.g.oving to the new daycare room.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 10:23 PM
DS1 had 6 at one time, and we still celebrate Bobby's birthday in September (a date which has nothing to do with the date of his arrival).
Posted 15 February 2013 - 10:28 PM
My DD2 had an imaginary friend when she was 2. Then, last year an imaginary friend named Zoe (coincidence OP) made an appearance. Dd did seem to know Zoe was imaginary but little 'Muffy' (her earlier imaginary friend) was very real to her and great company for her.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 10:30 PM
3.5yo (only child) has an imaginary little sister named Debbie, and an imaginary "Granpa" (her "real" Grandad is around all the time, as is Granny). She also has friends at daycare, gets along great with her cousins, and has fantastic imagination and storytelling ability.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 11:16 PM
My 4yo has one. She even pushes her imaginary friend on the swing. She's starting to make real friends at kindy now thankfully.
Posted 15 February 2013 - 11:33 PM
My sister had one when she was starting school. Her 'tending friend did all sorts of naughty things which my sister had to rectify. 'tending friend lasted for about six months and then disappeared once she was confident enough to face school without it.
Posted 16 February 2013 - 07:29 AM
DD has an imaginary kitten. She is grey and called kitty. Apparently she likes to sit in the shower, the window and likes car rides. Kitty can also be quite naughty lol.
I just play along with it.
