Nike France Supporter Soccer Ball 5 5
Nike France Soccer Ball Good solid recreational soccer ball. I use it daily, and on special for $20, it's an excellent value. August 19, 2014
Okay Ball Ball lost some air pretty soon, but overall still a good ball August 3, 2014
Does hold air The ball looks great and has a nice touch. I give it just 1 star because it does not hold the air and goes flat after a few hours. July 15, 2014
Soft texture/material Great feel. I use it as a barefoot ball and soft touches. When I'm done playing, I put it up for display. I love this new ball. July 11, 2014
Great quality ball This is a good quality ball that doesn't slide off your foot as you're juggling it. The price was nice too. I wouldn't pay over $25 for it. I saved approximately $5 using a 20% off coupon that I had brought in with me. March 18, 2014

The Wren Cross is back on permanent display in Wren Chapel at the college of William & Mary.
The cross is now in a display case with a plaque explaining the cross's roots in the school's history. The display is a compromise to a controversial decision made by President Gene Nichol.
Nichol had the cross removed from the altar in November, in hopes making people of all religious backgrounds feel comfortable in the chapel. Many students and alumni expressed outrage over the decision.
William and Mary spokesman Michael Connolly said the display case arrived over the weekend and the cross was immediately placed in it without delay or ceremony.

Half-Light Multiverse #JustWriteIt
That's right. Half-Light is back, bitches!
You know what? I figured that it was about time I altered this a tad. I mean, I've been here four years. That makes me pensionable age by Wattpad standards. With that in mind, don't you think it's time the silliness stopped? Like fuck... If you want to read sensible, well-crafted stories that don't get your cognitive juices flowing then you've come to the wrong place. If, on the other hand, you want to have your testicles – or ovaries, I'll have no gender discrimination here, thank you very much – force fed through a tube of literary randomness and plot holes so gaping there's no way they can be accidental then take a seat, help yourself to a lager and spark a tab. I should probably point out that not everything I write is as random as the day is long. Some of my shit actually makes sense... What? It fucking does, you cheeky bastards! I don't do follow for follow because I'm not a twat. I don't take reading requests because I genuinely don't have the time. Requests for either of these things will result in me putting a round of fucks into you. A little about me? Wife. Puppy. Job. Rock 'n' Fuckin' Roll. Et quis est, sunt canes?
That's right. Half-Light is back, bitches!
In a post-apocalyptic, zombie infested world, a group of survivors do what they can - and what they must...

Hailed "a master of edge-of-your-seat writing" by Booklist, Anthony Horowitz pens the New York Times best-selling Gatekeepers series, which includes the action-packed novels Raven's Gate and Evil Star.
With Nightrise, he amplifies the suspense as an evil group strives to imprison and control the psychic twins, Scott and Jamie.
©2007 Anthony Horowitz; (P)2007 Recorded Books, LLC
"Nice third book"
This one is pretty consistent with the first two - if you enjoyed them you'll probably like this one. Not much else to say, really.
"Good entertainment."
Horowitz & Prebble serve up more of the same Gatekeepers story that we've come to know and love. Not a classic in the sense that I think people will be reading it in 100 years, but a lot of fun. All of Horowitz's many books are favorites of my son, who at age 7-8 was a reluctant reader, but who is now at age 11 a very avid reader.

Ted Siefer's City Hall: School board gives cool nod to STEAM
Indeed, the big launch took place the week immediately after the election. A coincidence? Probably not. STEAM Ahead is being led by Bob Baines, the former mayor, and he praised Gatsas for his support and enthusiasm. A post-election launch ensured that the project wouldn't be tainted by political calculations - or perceptions thereof.
"My bet," Gatsas told me, "is that a lot of people will be taking a close look at what Manchester is doing."
Call it a rookie mistake. The district's new athletics director, Chris Donovan, had some explaining to do before the school board's Athletics Committee Tuesday concerning the contract for new winter equipment. With the season fast approaching, Donovan was prepared to award the contract without having it go out to bid. That's a no-no; the city's procurement code requires a competitive bid for contracts worth more than $25,000, as was the case with the athletic equipment.
Donovan later told me that he attributed the misstep to being new to the city and the job. "It's part of the learning curve, but something easily rectified," he said.
You may recall near the beginning of the school year that there was a minor revolt among principals over concerns about student safety. As part of the conversation about the shorter 175-day calendar, there was concern raised that as the school day got longer for students, there wouldn't be enough staff available at the end of the day to monitor things and ensure youngsters boarded buses and left campus safely.
- - - - - - - -
Starting a couple of weeks before the election, there was renewed interest in the Manchester Dog Park, to put it mildly. A faction of current and former park users accused Ward 10 Alderman Phil Greazzo, the founder of the Manchester Dog Park Association (MDPA), of in effect running it as a closed Republican club. Greazzo in turn called the accusations politically motivated. The election, of course, has come and gone (and Greazzo has lost his seat), but it's clear the dog park issue will linger at City Hall.

Robots, you should know, will be kicking off the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on Nov. 28. This is nothing to fear, Manchester technology entrepreneur Dean Kamen assures us, but should rather be a point of pride.

Lookin pretty good
Primary - Empty
Secondary - Empty
Bottle Conditioning - None
Drinking - Peanut Butter Oatmeal Stout, Barleywine, Saison, APA, Strawberry mead
In the Works - Summer Rye for my wedding, May 15, 2010
pretty dang cool
Label's pretty darn cool.
Good call on the brewery name change though...Ass Pirate doesn't have the same ring to it that Air Pirate does.
Looks like a pic I took in a medieval church some years ago...
looking pretty good.
i dont know about the elliptical shape though. the skull (with wings) and the AIR PIRATE BREWERY text together create a more rectangular space. theres a lot of empty air above and below these shapes inside the ellipse. maybe they could break the border of the ellipse?
Colonel Kilgore would approve..

Telling jokes in Los Angeles is a little different from telling them in the Midwest, says comedian Amber Preston. Crowds out West really enjoy the fact that she comes from Fargo. "People seem to get a kick out of hearing me talk about that, but I don't really tweak anything for L.A. audiences. I still do a lot of the same material, but trying not to fall into the trap of, 'You know why L.A. is so different?' I'm trying to stay true to myself. Luckily I go back and forth quite a lot, so I can try something in L.A. and then try it in the Midwest and see what people think." She always gets laughs, but thinks that some people laugh at her jokes for different reasons. "I think maybe the things people find entertaining in my set they find funny for different reasons in the Midwest," she says. "They might think, 'Oh yeah, I've been there. That sounds like my dad.' And maybe out here on the West Coast it's more like, 'Oh yeah, I've heard of that' or 'Small towns? I could never live in one.' More like outsiders laughing at it." She also points out that with so many transplanted Midwesterners in L.A., a lot of what she talks about onstage is pretty familiar. Take camping, for example. "I love sitting around a campfire, that's my favorite," she tells an audience. "I love the campfire, you just stare at it. It's intoxicating. It's hypnotizing. Staring at the fire is kind of like when there's a baby in the room. You just stare at it. But throw that baby in the campfire?" She sighs. "People just stare at you." Mike Lester opens.

SPECIAL: Message for 2004 World Day of the Sick
Event to Focus on Lourdes
VATICAN CITY, FEB. 1, 2004 (Zenit) - Here is the text of John Paul's message for the 12th World Day of the Sick, which on Feb. 11 will focus attention on the Shrine of Lourdes in France.
* * *
To my Venerable Brother Cardinal Javier Lozano Barrag�n President of the Pontifical Council for Health Pastoral Care
1. The World Day of the Sick, an event held on a different Continent each year, takes on a singular meaning this time. Indeed, it will take place in Lourdes, France, site of the apparition of the Blessed Virgin on 11 February 1858, which since that time has become the destination of many pilgrimages. In that mountainous region, Our Lady wished to demonstrate her maternal love, especially towards the suffering and the sick. Since then, she continues to be present through her solicitude.
This Shrine was chosen because in 2004 is the 150th Anniversary of the proclamation of the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception. It was on 8 December 1854 with the Dogmatic Bull "Ineffabilis Deus" that my Predecessor, Bl. Pius IX of happy memory, affirmed that "the doctrine which holds that the most Blessed Virgin Mary, in the first instance of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege granted by Almighty God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the human race, was preserved free from all stain of original sin, is a doctrine revealed by God" (DS, 2803). At Lourdes, speaking in the native dialect, Mary said: "Que soy era Immaculada Councepciou" [I am the Immaculate Conception].
2. With these words, did not the Blessed Virgin wish to express the link that unites her to health and to life? If death entered the world because of original sin, by the merits of Jesus Christ, God preserved Mary free from every stain of sin, and salvation and life came to us (cf. Romans 5:12-21).
The Dogma of the Immaculate Conception introduces us into the heart of the mystery of Creation and Redemption (cf. Ephesians 1: 4-12; 3: 9-11). God wanted to give life in abundance to the human creature (cf. John 10:10), on the condition, however, that his initiative would be met by a free and loving response. Man tragically cut off vital dialogue with the Creator, refusing this gift with the disobedience that led to sin. To the "yes" of God, source of the fullness of life, the "no" of man was placed in opposition, motivated by proud self-sufficiency, harbinger of death (cf. Romans 5:19).
Entire humanity was heavily involved in this closure towards God. In view of Christ's merits, only Mary of Nazareth was conceived without original sin and was completely open to the divine design so that the Heavenly Father was able to accomplish in her the project that he had for mankind.
The Immaculate Conception introduces the harmonious interlacing between the "yes" of God and the "yes" that Mary pronounced without reserve when the angel brought the heavenly announcement (cf. Luke 1:38). Her "yes" in the name of humanity reopened the doors of Heaven to the world, thanks to the Incarnation of the Word of God in her womb by the work of the Holy Spirit (cf. Luke 1:35). In this way, the original project of creation was restored and strengthened in Christ; the Virgin Mother also shares in this project.
3. The keystone of history lies here: with the Immaculate Conception of Mary began the great work of Redemption that was brought to fulfillment in the precious blood of Christ. In him, every person is called to achieve the perfection of holiness (cf. Colossians 1:28).
The Immaculate Conception is, therefore, the promising dawn of the radiant day of Christ, who with his death and Resurrection was to restore full harmony between God and humanity. If Jesus is the source of life that conquers death, Mary is the attentive mother who comes to meet the needs of her children, obtaining for them the health of soul and body. This is the message that the Shrine of Lourdes constantly re-proposes to the devout and to pilgrims. This is also the meaning behind the healings of body and spirit that take place at the grotto of Massabielle.
On that site, since the day of the apparition to Bernadette Soubirous, Mary has "healed" pain and sickness, also restoring many of her sons and daughters to health of body. She has worked much more surprising miracles, however, in the souls of believers, preparing them for the encounter with her Son Jesus, the authentic answer to the deepest expectations of the human heart. The Holy Spirit, who covered her with his shadow at the moment of the Incarnation of the Word, transforms the soul of countless sick people who turn to her. Even when they do not obtain the gift of bodily health, they are able to receive another that is much more important: the conversion of heart, source of peace and interior joy. This gift transforms their existence and ...

Why Drugs and Supplements Can't Cure Disease
Chronic diseases are the outcome of disease-promoting, goal-oriented behaviors. So, the notion that diseases can be cured with drugs or supplements should be abandoned. Hypertension is the best example of this.
Following the Thinking of the Classics
I have heard about the "best time of day" to carry out certain examinations or therapies. For example, I remember making a note years ago that early morning is the best time to take someone's pulses.
Are You Ignoring the 10,000-Hour Rule?
Having trained interns and mentored new practitioners, it has been my observation that their No. 1 clinical concern is adjusting skills. Their second clinical concern is their ability to read X-rays. Physical diagnostic skills are a distant third.
Home Safety: Help Families Avoid Common Injury Hazards at Home

The Acupuncture Now Foundation: What Our Profession Needs
Although acupuncture is growing in popularity it continues to be underutilized due to misunderstandings about its true potential. Only a fraction of those who could be helped by acupuncture know enough to seek it out.
Avoiding "Just a Pop Doc" Syndrome
Yes, it's harsh. Patients don't like to admit it. They have an unspoken plan when they first visit you: to come one time, get rid of their pain and then get rid of you. They know it's unrealistic, but they'd like to pay nothing for this service.
Capturing the Essence of Tai Chi
Over the last 12 years, I have been working on one of the few documentaries about Tai Chi. It's called The Professor: Tai Chi's Journey West and it's about Cheng Man-Ching who moved to New York in the 1960s.
Understanding Epigenetics
Chronic heightened emotional states create a perfect breeding ground for illness. Through my practice I noted the increasingly obvious relationship between one's mental focus on negative thinking, emotions, resistance to experiencing feelings and disease.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine there already exists a comprehensive theory linking the body and mind.

Treating Acute and Chronic Neck Pain With Ischemic Compression and Exercise
There are many reasons not to manipulate the neck with cavitation: the patient is too old, their neck is too tight, etc. But the most common reason is that plenty of patients are afraid of "the crack," mostly because of the bad publicity about that procedure.
Solving the Pain Puzzle
Legendary former New York Yankees baseball player Yogi Berra once said, "You can observe a lot just by watching." He would have been a great chiropractor. We are trained to become experts with our hands: palpation, adjusting, soft-tissue release, etc.
Treating Menopausal Women in Your Practice
I love what I do for a living. It's a great way to trade health for bread. And no topic of health, with the right bedside manner, is taboo.
The Death of the Travel Card
As long as I have been in practice, the travel card has stood as the primary style of documentation for chiropractic. It is quick, simple and direct. Unfortunately, the rules have changed.
It Pays to be a Foodie
If there is an inner foodie in you, just waiting to burst out—this article is for you! Do you want to know how I know? I'm that girl. My middle name might as well be "Foodie." I love food! And if my patients are any indication, many of them do as well.
Chinese Medicine: The Natural Way to Children's Wellness
As a child, I did not like going to the doctor. For the most part, when I had to go I wasn't feeling good to begin with, and I was heading into a sterile environment to be awkwardly probed by a man in a white coat for a very short, impersonal period of time.
Five Element Acupuncture Can Enhance Your Practice

Building Raving Fans: Consistency Is the Key
By David Kent, LMT, NCTMB
In my March article, "The 80/20 Rule: Maximizing the Return on Your Investment," I talked about how to use the 80/20 rule to produce a better return on your investment of time and money in your clinical, chair, outcall or spa massage practice. I discussed focusing 80 percent of your efforts on the 20 percent of the tasks that matter most and stressed the importance of thanking your clients for their business. I also touched on the importance of thanking those professionals and others who refer new business. This month, I'd like to expand on this idea with a few simple "20 percent actions" that will set you apart from your fans.
Saying "thank you" to someone for referring a new client isn't just the polite thing to do - it's a means of maintaining relationships and building new business. When was the last time you got a "thank you" from your health care provider or from a patient you referred to another health care provider? It doesn't take much to thank someone. Simply acknowledging someone's efforts on your behalf can go a very long way.
Get clients involved. When new clients are checking out, I hand them a blank note card and ask them to write a simple thank-you note to the person who referred them. The message is quite simple:
This simple action only takes a few minutes and most clients will be more than happy to do it, especially when they have just received a treatment that has relieved their pain. This simple gesture makes everyone involved feel good and strengthens the relationships. Make it easy on the client: Provide the envelope and the stamp, and mail it in for them.
Send personal thank-you cards to first-time referral sources. It's not just up to your client to thank the referral source, especially if you want that source to continue sending clients your way. Create or buy some massage-specific thank-you cards and send them every time you receive a referral from a new source. For a personal touch, make sure to sign the card. I sign every card to new clients, referral sources and people who have inquired about or ordered my products.
Make a statement. While it's probably not necessary to send a thank-you card every time you receive a referral from the same source, you should make a point of consistently acknowledging that person's contribution to your practice. Do special things throughout the year for your referral sources - not just on holidays or special events. They will appreciate and reward your actions with more referrals. I stand out by thanking my referral sources in unique and personal ways. Some ideas include:
A word about samples. Everyone loves free stuff, and free samples are an easy way to build raving fans while producing extra income. I use certain topical applications on my clients during treatment. Then I show clients how to apply them for self-care between sessions. I explain how these topical aids can work in conjunction with stretching, rest, ice and exercise. I also make the analgesics available for purchase at the clinic. Clients often ask for samples to pass out to family, friends and co-workers, many of whom later become my clients. One large company offers two samples with your name and telephone number printed on a product brochure. They'll even ship it to you for free.
Office visits, distance and timing. To maintain my relationships with the referral sources in my area, I make occasional personal visits. Some of my referral sources have relocated over the years, but they still refer clients to me from time to time. A doctor who once was very close to my office is now almost an hour away. But I still take the time, on occasion, to drive out to see him. Just because a referral source has moved away doesn't mean they will stop referring. Remember, the world still is a small place.
While making personal visits is a good method of maintaining your relationships, it's also important to time your visits with discretion. Some referral sources may work odd shifts or weekends, such as a walk-in clinic. I work those visits into the different 20 percent parts of each day during the week. My sources often appreciate that I took the time to stop in and say thank you.
Personalize your visits. Each meeting is an opportunity to strengthen your professional relationship. If, for example, I am stopping by a doctor's office, I will take some time to learn about the doctors, nurses and staff members so I can personalize my visit. During one visit, I learned that a doctor only ate organic food. On my next visit, I brought in some organic fruit and snacks. He appreciated that I took the effort to learn about his eating habits and then responded with a customized gift.
Become a support system for your referral sources. When people need help, they call the people they know and trust. Many clients call our office asking if we can help people they know. And they want to know whom we recommend if we cannot help. Take care of the referral sources that take care of you.Maintain consistency. Rarely will a single conversation, meeting, personal gift or thank-you note build a relationship or produce long-term results. Plan some 20 percent time every week to say thank you so that you can maintain your current relationships and build new ones. For more ideas, check out my past articles at www.massagetoday.com.

Oil & Gas/Fact & Fiction Series
Energy: To hear President Obama talk about energy, you'd think annual oil price spikes were routine and predictable. But it's another energy myth Obama peddles to avoid responsibility for high gas prices.
In February, Obama lamented these "gas price spikes that happen every year." A few days later, he talked about the need to "take control of our energy future" so we could "avoid high gas prices every single year."
"This is not the first time we've seen gas prices spike," he said in yet another speech. "It's been happening for years. Every year, about this time, gas starts spiking up and everybody starts wondering, how high is it going to go?"
And in yet another talk, he described it as "this cycle of high gas prices that happens year after year after year."
For Obama, this is a convenient excuse. After all, price spikes can't possibly be his fault, since they happen "year after year."
Instead, he says, they're the fault of a 30-year failure to adopt a national energy policy that gets the country off oil.
That's why, he argues, we have to push conservation and "clean" alternative fuels, which is the only way to stop being "held hostage to the ups and downs of world markets."
Simple, right? Except it's not true.
The historical record is clear that today's high gas prices are an anomaly, not a feature, of the U.S. energy market.
Indeed, the overall trend from the late 1940s until the end of the 20th century had been one of moderately falling gas prices. That trend was interrupted in the 1970s, when ruinous federal regulatory and economic policies drove up gasoline prices.
Once Reagan decontrolled oil markets and ended stagflation, gas prices resumed their historic decline. By 1999 gasoline was 27% cheaper, after inflation, than it was in 1948.
Despite what Obama claims, it's only been since the early-2000s that gas prices started ramping up.
And it's only been since Obama took office that we've seen prices at such sustained high levels — average monthly gasoline prices have topped $3 a gallon for the past 15 straight months.
What explains this more recent trend? One key reason is that the U.S. has been choking off our domestic supply of oil.
As the nearby chart shows, U.S. oil production peaked in 1970 and started falling after 1985. Now, despite even the gains in the past couple years, the U.S. produces 37% less oil today than it did that year.
Cyberwar: The director of the National Security Agency, Adm. Michael Rogers, has warned a congressional panel that China has the capability to knock out the entire U.S. power grid. This is a first-magnitude threat.As severe as U.S. national security problems are with the militarily resurgent Russia ...

This should be treated as the national emergency it is.For the president to shield up to 5 million aliens from the deportation that statute requires ...

Lying With Statistics: In April, we doubted that the surprisingly high ObamaCare enrollment numbers could be trusted. Turns out, we were right to be skeptical. The White House had been vastly inflating the figures all along.This week, Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell admitted that ...
In his immigration speech Thursday night, President Obama announced his intention to sign an executive order that "temporarily" (or until his term is over in January 2015) allows an estimated 4 million illegal aliens to remain in the U.S., he merely formalized what he was already doing. He never ...

World-Renowned Turkish Musician Added to AOP's January Performances
AMERICAN OPERA PROJECTS (AOP) is excited to collaborate with acclaimed Turkish-American Composer Kamran Ince on his latest work and operatic "first", Judgment of Midas. The opera will be presented on January 10th at 8:00 p.m. in a premiere workshop performance to be held at South Oxford Space: 138 South Oxford Street Brooklyn, NY 11217. A second performance will be held at the Bruno Walter Auditorium at Lincoln Center on January 12 at 8:00 p.m. Kamran Ince will be available after each concert for discussion about his creative process and musical inspirations, as part of AOP's First Chance initiative- a program that promotes interaction between audience and composer, as the musical work is revealed to the public for the first time. Internationally renowned musician Omar Faruk Tekbilek will give a special musical presentation featuring a variety of Turkish folk instruments. Tickets are $20 and available at www.operaprojects.org.
J. David Jackson (Metropolitan Opera) conducts an international cast featuring Lynn Trepel Caglar (Istanbul State Opera and Ballet), Matthew Morgan (New York City Opera), Gregory Gerbrandt (Boston Lyric Opera), Jason Papowitz (Prague State Opera), and the Metropolitan Opera's Philip Horst and Mikhail Svetlov. Also featuring Heather Michele Meyer, Hannah Fuerst, Melissa Collom, Margaret O'Connell, Brandon Snook, and Adam PatRick Cromer. Mila Henry accompanies on piano, with the participation of Turkish instrumentalists.
Loosely based on Ovid's mythical drama Metamorphoses in a libretto by Miriam Seidel, Judgment of Midas details an epic musical battle between gods Pan and Apollo. With King Midas as the witness, Pan, maker of "street music" and Apollo, maker of the god's music, compete for supremacy as the foremost divine musician. What follows is a musical battle of diverse orchestration that showcases Ince's unique talents and genius as a composer. Mixing together an assortment of world, ethnic, popular and folk music, Ince uses his versatile compositional talents to depict the mythical musical duel of the gods. Recognized nationally and internally, Kamran Ince finds in Judgment of Midas, a vehicle for a classic mythic story and a musical triumph.
Hailed by The Los Angeles Times as "that rare composer, able to sound connected with modern music and yet still seem exotic," Kamran Ince is a force on the cutting edge of contemporary composition, bridging musical idioms of the East and West. His numerous prizes include the Prix de Rome, the Guggenheim Fellowship, and the Lili Boulanger Prize. His Waves of Talya was named "one of the best chamber works of the 20th Century by a living composer" by Chamber Music Magazine. In 2010 Naxos released four new albums of Kamran Ince's music which include new recordings of the composer's Music for a Lost Earth, Symphony No. 5-Galatasaray, Hammers & Whistlers and Symphony No. 2-Fall of Constantinople. Ince's most recent work, The Invasion, for chamber orchestra, premieres at Gallipoli, Turkey on April 25, presented by the Canberra International Music Festival to mark the centennial of the First World War battle of Gallipoli.

I have a custom weighted shift-knob in my 2012 so I needed a new retainer and had tried another one that I got off another website and I wasn't thrilled with the way it looked. It was entirely too tall and had asymmetrical sides, overall very unattractive. Bought this and couldn't be happier, it looks factory and sits perfectly flush. Sure $25 is pricey for a chunk of soda cans but it looks great, feels great and does exactly what I needed.

Kinda makes you want to wave a Union Jack and invade Russia
I will never stop wondering why that genre of music is called Heavy Metal. I mean, from a metal point of view it's quite the opposite, isn't it?Originally Posted by Hobbes
Personally I prefer my metal literally heavy. Like this:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Such an epic song I simply had to post it. The Trooper is a decent one as well, I guess - even though I really don't like Heavy Metal - but the sound quality is awful. Which is pretty much expected from a 31-year-old song, sadly.
Nice to see someone post metal here though, even if it's not a metal genre I personally enjoy.
Anyone heard of this?
Now I have ... any chance for an audio memory eraser? Please!
