This interview airs beginning July 15.
Fredericksburg's Sister City is Frejus, France, a beautiful, historic city on the Mediterranean Sea. Cultural and educational exchange programs, people to people, promote appreciation and understanding. Debby Klein visits Judy Hansen to talk about the more than 25 years' relationship between Fredericksburg and Frejus.
Signing up for the summer reading club at the Central Rappahannock Regional Library comes with lots of benefits. The most important, of course, is that kids are inspired to read for pleasure all summer long. But starting this week, membership also means kids can pick up a coupon for free admission to a Potomac Nationals game on Sunday, August 9. Stop by the children's room at any library branch, and enjoy the game!
Feel like putting a little free spirit in your summer? Get on your oldest clothes, grab some buckets and rubber gloves, and head for the backyard to create beautiful tie-dye crafts.
The England Run Library (named the Falls Run Library in the early stages of the project) is featured on the American Institute of Architects web site. Find out more about the innovative design of our newest library.
By Sue Lawson
Although it may seem like a cold weather craft, felting is a great project for kids in the summertime.
Questions on felting have become very popular over the last several months at our library. People of all ages are now using this method to change the texture of a yarn or fur item to cause it to become matted or felt-like.
Thousands of kids and hundreds of teens have already signed up for this year's summer reading clubs at the Central Rappahannock Regional Library. Now that schools are letting out, librarians are bracing for even more eager readers swarming into our branches.
Summer means the youth services librarians get to turn their attention form homework help to one of their very favorite jobs: matching readers with books. Getting kids started on a great series is a special thrill as kids fall head over heels into characters and stories that continue in book after book.
If you'd like to be among the first to learn about the newest books, DVDs, and CDs on hand and on order at the Central Rappahannock Regional Library, you should consider signing up for Wowbrary. It's free and very cool!
One of the main goals for the design of the England Run Library was to achieve a high level of sustainable design. We've done this through the use of recycled and non-toxic materials and energy-efficient lighting and design.
After bouncing all night in cold, cramped steel boats, then waiting all day in broiling heat, the men of the Allied Expeditionary Force got the word: shortly after sundown, they would finally be getting off their floating, seasick prisons.
All they had to do then was run straight into machine gun fire, smash the Nazi army, and liberate Europe.
The newest member of the CRRL family, England Run Library, is scheduled to open in the fall of 2010. Visit the England Run branch page for more information.

Who can we depend on to help secure an uncertain world? With our Online Criminal Justice Degree, it could be you.
Today, America finds itself surrounded, domestically as well as internationally, by those who potentially could do us harm. This fact is driving new initiatives in security as both a science and a profession, spearheaded by our government's own Department of Homeland Security and anti-terrorist efforts. At the same time, a different and yet very similar undeclared war is raging in cyberspace, as highly organized teams of hackers seek to penetrate our software defenses and disrupt our most sensitive and important data systems. Our Online Criminal Justice Bachelor Degree with a concentration in security couldn't be more crucial.
In both regards, new approaches in security are urgently needed, so that our citizens as well as critical systems and information are protected. Bay State's Online Criminal Justice Bachelor Degree with a Private Security Concentration addresses this need at the source, by training professionals to understand the complex challenges we face in these areas and seek new ways of elevating and managing security measures.
Through our Online Criminal Justice Degree Program with a Security Concentration, your professors will help you gain a greater insight into those vital areas involved in modern security:
In addition as part of our online undergraduate degree, you'll be introduced to new career opportunities in the emerging fields of personal, physical, territorial and information security among others.
Plus, our Online Criminal Justice Degree- Security Concentration classes offer you flexibility around busy schedules, but still provide you with the same high level of support and personal interaction that you'd find in our classrooms. All reflect the Bay State College standard of quality and are fully accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC).
To keep the bad guys at bay, you need to think smarter. With our Online Criminal Justice Bachelor Degree, we'll show you how.
Do you offer study abroad programs?
Yes. Bay State College is a partner of the Suffolk University Study Abroad and Syracuse University Study Abroad programs. Through these programs students can customize their study abroad experiences to best match their academic, career and travel interests. Full-year, semester and summer programs are offered. Language skills are not required for most locations prior to your departure but will be a part of your studies when you arrive.

This is not good for the UK and the cities in the states are doing the same because of their reckless spending habits. In the article he said the amount of the cuts was a speculation. Looks like they are on pins and needles until the spending review reports comes back in October.Police Cuts: Derek Barnett Of Police Superintendents' Association Warns Of Disorder On Streets | UK News | Sky News
Chief Superintendent Derek Barnett is set to urge Home Secretary Theresa May not to make any mistakes as she oversees the most radical policing reform in 50 years.
Amid fears that 40,000 officers' jobs could go as part of a drive to shave 25% off the cost of policing, Mr Barnett will warn that it "is a fundamental duty of Government to ensure the security of the nation".
"If you do cut police funding too severely there will be some consequences."

its the same old liberl/socialist saw. threaten the public with cutting the services that the government is actually SUPPOSED to provide so they can continue to spend on things they have no business doing. in my way of thinking: let em actually do it. force their hand stop knuckling under to socialist.
"it is the fundamental responibility of government to protect its people"
its my resposibility to protect myself and i will do a better job than anyone who isnt me
"Hoplophobia is a mental disturbance characterized by irrational aversion to weapons, as opposed to justified apprehension about those who may wield them."
don't wish for a lesser burden, just a stronger back
That was a short thread!!
Threaten the public with loss of perceived safety to bolster support for new taxes to maintain the status quo!
People get the government they deserve.
hey, I say let em do it. I will feel bad for the families of the officers who are now without an income (assuming their income is the main source of the family) but hey the people who are responsible and focus on the safety of their family by arming themselves will be fine. The only people who need worry are the libtards who don't arm themselves. Also, the people who they will need protection from are criminals who are likely also liberals. It's funny how people who commit crimes are often liberals (democrat in America) and also the same people who vote for gun control so the regular joes can't protect themselves. Just my observations.
we're Americans and we pray for peace, and if we can't have peace we find and destroy the people who screwed up the damn peace. So we can have some peace. - Christopher Titus

I'm 21 years old, and only have a learner's permit and no insurance. I was in an accident today while driving my mother's car There were no injuries on either side, but the other car had about $3,500 damages. I was given a few civil citations, but she has to appear in court for the charge mentioned above. It was also made known to the officer that she was aware I've been driving the car for two years.
I'm aware there can be a fine and potential jail time, but based on the situation, what would she likely be sentenced with?
On the civil side, there is also the potential for her insurance carrier to deny coverage if the other party sues for damages.
I doubt there is any serious risk of jail time for your mother under the circumstances. The jails are overflowing with the violent criminals and drug dealers, why would the government want to imprison your mother?
Who told the police that you had been allowed to drive this car for 2 years? That information may not come into evidence if the speaker is not present at your mother's hearing. Hearsay evidence is not permitted. I do suggest that your mother retain a defense attorney who handles traffic court matters and let him or her handle the defense.
Hopefully in the future you will be properly licensed and insured.

Oftentimes the question does not include significant and important facts and timelines that, if known, could significantly change the reply and make it unsuitable. Mr. Lundeen strongly advises the questioner to confer with an attorney in your state in order to ensure proper advice is received.
I can see that she may be liable for the costs of repairs to the other person's car caused by your negligent driving. I can see maybe a denial of a driver's license to you for violating the rule that you cannot drive alone when driving with a learner's permit, I can see some sort of fine to your mother for allowing you to drive without her. I suggest you talk to a criminal law attorney right away regarding this last issue and do not write anything else on the internet. Best of luck

LOL what has this turned into??? lol Look it's easier for me to throw heals when your on teamspeak so I can hear, "ohh dang i'm out of heals" then I give what I can. If you hear someone else on TS saying I got you. Do you still waste your heals??? No. Dannyboy is afraid of a 1v1 cause I would show him off and i would never let him live it down. And now for some reason "instagib"(one hit kills) are a bad thing??? I have kept my weapon power at 25. While maxing out my DPS. This Feedback Pulse build just helps with taking down most noobs and keeping Elites off my back. But don't mistake me for a one pony show. I still have my Viral Matrix build and my pve build.

Dec 11, 2013I loved flower so much! So I was so excited for this one. But I just didn't get into it. The experience never got to me. The world has almost no color to speak of, and I have no idea what I'm doing in this desert. It's hard to explain what makes a game like this good or bad. It just works for you or it doesn't. this did not work for me. Although there was some enjoyment here and there.
Feb 24, 201312,99 just to go for a walk for an hour? Graphics look good but everything else is just not there. How anyone can be so amazed about Journey is gonna stay a secret for me.
Feb 28, 2014Journey is indie hipster tripe. For whatever reason, this game's gotten praised, yet it's not much of a game, nor is it much of an "experience." It's a repetitive, AHEM, Journey *wink wink nod nod*, that isn't worth your money, much less your time. Go outside, teach your kid to ride a bike, and you'll have a much more worthwhile emotion than this hipster garbage.
Mar 23, 2013Now I know this as loads of acclaim and stuff but it's way overrated with some awards for multiplayer and STORY. First there's no story just a random cloaked faceless thing that walks across across a desert for a bit then you get to the top of the mountain and a pointless ending £/$15 is a rip-off don't buy it NEVER
Jun 25, 2014I guess I just don't get it, no matter which way you cut it. As a game I rate it a 2, as there is zero challenge or fun involved in any way shape or form. As a story or "experience", I give it a 5. I can see that maybe it's trying say something deep and meaningful, but honestly, I wish I would've known how little I would have given a **** what it is or may be before trudging through this pointless "game". What a waste of time. The "pro" reviewers I expected great reviews from, but you user reviewers really let me down on this one. You owe me $15.… Expand
Aug 9, 2012Sony promised us so much and I am so disappointed with this title. Flow was ok but this one is not. There are some great games coming out around this time and you should spend your money on those instead of this letdown. Ok I like the arty style but I do not get taken away by the game contents for even one moment.
Apr 8, 2012Journey is not bad game, it's not fun, yet still has an appeal to it, but the whole time I played it there was that niggle in the back of my mind saying "I only like this because I've been told how good it is." In truth journey is a fairly linear and boring, and my initial perception was altered by what I had heard of the game. Twenty minutes into the game this wore off and I began to see what Journey really was; a obsessed with it's own self importance that it can't be bothered to tell a coherant story but instead uses pseudoistic imagery to cover up for the non-existant story. Towards the end I did garner something from the game as me and my fellow adventurer which the game had seamlessly connected me too slowly trudged through the snow. It was to say the least brilliant. It was the only real moment me and my companion shared and we'd been together since the start of the game. Marching onward close to death until we fell into the snow unable to continue. It was raw, it was powerful, no thought is as colloasal as that of failure.
However in the game industry there is a misconception that for a game to be good it must have a happy ending and suddenly the raw emotion and loss I felt from me and my companion dying evaporated as we were miraculously revived and finished out journey. Regardless of how good a game is if that satasfaction only occurs for 15 minutes towards the end of a two hour game and that moment is then stripped away and may as welll never occured then I'm sorry but it's not worth my time or money.… Expand
Mar 18, 2012After becoming fatigued from constant big budget games that require you to shoot stuff in the face I thought I'd give this a try as it looked so unique and different. After playing Journey though my feelings have changed. The game play isn't unique or different so much as it is none existent.
All you seem to do is press forward on the left stick to the point where at the end of the game my thumb was starting to ache. There is no challenge, nothing to interact with, no humor and the game generally is all about the graphics.
It's more of an interactive piece of art rather than a game that's meant to be experienced rather than played. But at just an hour and a half long I was relieved when it was over and for the price it's really not worth it.… Expand
Aug 9, 2012the gameplay is just not satisfying enough, and the multiplayer element, (where you see another player with no gamertag or identification) while a cool concept, is utterly strange and not used to it's potential
Aug 24, 2012Sure it has fabolous graphics and great sound quality, but it has no story all i am very unclear of what is going on in the game, you also have no info about the character and only one goal you have to make it to the mountain, i think. But if you are a guy who doesnt care about the story or background info about the character, and just care about the graphics and sound quality then maybe this is your game, but if you care about the story, sound quality and graphics, like me, you should not play this game.… Expand
Feb 5, 2013This isnt even a game its 90 minutes long and its $15 horrible deal there is almost no gameplay and no story if you gave this goty then you are a idiot
Oct 8, 2013Sinceramente não sei o que as pessoas viram nesse jogo. Ir de um lado para outro, sem nada mais o que fazer.... Gráficos bonitinhos, e nada além disso. Um lixo, não compre!
Dec 8, 2013I did not like this game. I got it and it took about 2 hours to download and then another hour to process and after that it didn't even work. Ridiculous and not worth your time. Don't get it. Enough said.
Nov 6, 2014Очень скучная игра. Не понимаю, как в такое можно играть и для кого она сделана. Провал
Jul 20, 2012Well, this was a dissapointing game. I mean, if you're into art games like thatgamecompany's previous games, "Flower" and "Flow", you'll love this. Otherwise, don't bother paying the outrageous price of 15.00 for this hour-long game. Also, while the art style and music make up the 2 points i am giving this game, i have to say that the gameplay is just not satisfying enough, and the multiplayer element, (where you see another player with no gamertag or identification) while a cool concept, is utterly strange and not used to it's potential. Overall, one of the most dissapointing games of the year. I quite enjoyed Flower, but this was just another overhyped game that as another reviewer said on here "seems like a religion".… Expand
Jul 29, 2012$15 price tag, 1 hour of game play, no challenge, and no replay value (unless you're a trophy hog). I don't see why so many people overrate this "game". Sure it's pretty, but if I wanted nothing but eye candy, I would've downloaded a screen saver and stared at that. At least it would be free.
Jul 18, 2014This is the stuff that annoys me. The game didn't impede take up much of my time so it's only mild annoyance. I do hesitate to call it a game though. It's more of an movie where you have to hold the remote the whole time. I acknowledge that I clearly share the same passions over the game's message.
I knew nothing about this game going into it. Sitting at a friend's house and he throws me a controller and says I have to play Journey. Naturally I think this is a waste of time because my file will be at his house and I'll never finish before I leave so I admit I went into it not wanting to play. So I sit there chatting with a few people while looking at the tv and moving around the game for about an hour and a half and then it's over.
Based on gameplay I think it's terrible and it annoys me greatly to see it so highly rated. Based on artistic value it's great (probably, I don't art well). But I don't play games for their art merits. I play for gameplay immersion, mechanics, and story. I saw the pretty pictures, moved the character around, and was given the philosophical message. Didn't care one bit about the traveler or her journey. If this is a game you have to play then play a friend's copy. Don't buy, don't rent (not ever sure if you can).… Expand
Dec 7, 2012Possibly one of the most overrated games of all time. This does not even classify as a game. What we have here is a 90 minute stroll through a barren desert. The gameplay is near non existent and only involve holding your thumb stick forward and watching the pretty image on screen move. Journey is a complete rip off for $15. The replay value is non existent since there is only one path to follow so you'll be see the same non interactive environment every time you play. There is a co op mode for some reason that doesn't really add anything to the game aside from "hey there is another guy over there". There is no cooperation or anything. I can't really recommend Journey to anyone, if you like the music, listen to it on YouTube, if you like the graphics, play Trine 2, a game with outstanding art direction and actually has gameplay and meaningful co op.… Expand
I do not understand these reviewers, it's as if we played a different game. I encourage you to read this before you spend the steep 15 dollars on this game. In short, Journey had so much potential and was initially so intriguing but by the end your journey is for nothing; there is no pay off, no explanation, and if you really made a bond with your SIX (or more) random pals may I introduce you to my wall? Really.
I enjoy artsy games and movies. I love a good and a simple storyline because generally games like those have one or two profound things to say. On the surface Journey seems to have that. When you meet your "partner" for the first time it's exciting: here's someone who can help me along in this place. But in the end it's a solo experience. At first, I thought it might be important to wait for my partner as they bounded this way and that, so I did. Then I lost them. Then I forged ahead and determined there was no need for them. You literally have no need for the other person and in fact they slow you down.
Then things get more intense and you're faced with an enemy.... who hits you hard and does basically nothing to you, so there's no danger and nothing a partner could have done anyway. Things get more intense, you're fighting against the elements but while you're freezing nothing is really happening to you. I found another partner and they just ran from me, there was no reason for us to be together.
You get to the end and you expect some epiphany, something as touching as these reviewers claim there is but there is NOTHING. You walk into a white light and it literally says "Thank you for playing Journey!" ...really? You leave the game as clueless as you entered it. The description promises you'll uncover or learn something and that is just a flat lie.
A beautiful game with a great concept and tons of hype but in the end it could not be less worthwhile.… Collapse
Mar 14, 2012After all the hype, when it's all said and done this is a terrible game. The developers tried to pull a Shadow of colossus or Ico kind of presentation but they failed miserably. The game itself is pretty but oh so simple and boring. As for the co-op all you do is watch other people doing their own thing. What a joke. and the game is so short it's not even funny.
If you want to play games that are surreal and beautiful you're better off getting the Ico and Shadow of the colossus HD release. I can't believe sony made such a big deal out of this mediocre title, flow was good but not this. There are some great games coming out around this time and you should spend your money on those instead of this drivel. I'm sorry if my review is harsh but almost everyone is making this game out to be so much more than it really is and I can't stand it.… Expand
Mar 16, 2012I really thought I was going to experience something new based on the reviews I read here. I think the reviews were actually written by the team who developed this game! This game is unfinished and feels like a very early alpha rough sketch. I really think this game would have been better off as a .99 cent download for a smartphone or iPad. There is nothing in this journey that is memorable and before you know the journey ends. The idea has a lot of potential but falls far short of the promise and final game play. Also, you do encounter others briefly but you have very limited interaction which again feels like they came up with a cool idea and just abandoned it, it could have been so much more then what the final product is like. I really wish this game had more to offer but just like the desert landscapes you will find very little content, what you see is what you get. Nothing more. I applaud your effort to create something new but next time don't rush to deliver an unfinished product and really focus on the game play.… Expand
Nov 11, 2012I went into journey by way of ps3 console which said u will be auto joined to a mini game. At least 20 tries at finding anything new to advance the progress of the game has failed. I am an avid gamer and not in the least dumb at solving puzzle games but this is ridiculously either the most impossible game to find answers to or it is made to be unsolved from the ps3 online direction. I see many avatars wandering around and obvioulsy doing the same thing and finding no answers. It wouldnt be so obtuse if I could interact with another player in any way. The game is either made to be unachieved or I am a moron looking for a clue that isnt there. If standing in a sandpit waiting and hoping something happens is the new game genre for ppl who may like the sights and waiting for anything to happen while sand blows up ur nose and music gets boring from lack of anything new, I must be actually a fool for going into the game so many times looking for a new clue. You have really made whatever experience we are supposed to find frustratingly sad. If I am supposed to buy the game and play it, that is one thing, but it is offered on the ps3 homesite for gameplay...Hello! there is no gameplay on it. It's a tease of some unknown proportion that has made me never want to go further or buy the game at all. If it's only a 2 hour game anyway, and there is a journey art book out for sale of this game, what is the point of ever continuing in this farce of a game? Yes, I may sound angry, it is true, and angry because you took a game i may have tried and made it into an art that is unplayable. Thank you for destroying my want for art from this game company, because if I could play it for the art, now I wouldnt bother...… Expand
Apr 29, 2014To me, Journey is bad art.
Art, by its nature, should challenge the viewer. It should invite subjectivity, speculation, and wonder. This doesn't have to be positive, as it can also provoke fear and paranoia, but in some way, a good piece of art will challenge its audience.
If all a piece of supposed art does is tell a story, then that's not art as I perceive it. If all it does is push an agendda, then that's not art either, that's propaganda. No matter how much you gussy up these things, you're not actually making art unless you're intellectually and/or emotionally challenging your audience. Journey is, quite essentially, a popular appeal to the masses dressed up as art. It provides three very mainstream tenets for people to relate to, so that they can have their values reaffirmed whilst being convinced that this experience was enriching for them. That's not at all different to how propaganda works. Creationism: To worship the one above is important, as they created all, and to seek any other than to do their work is an abhorrent sin. We were created, and as such, we obey our creator. It is through their glory that we will achieve; Rapture cometh, and with it, ascendancy. Uniformity: Individualism is a sickness external to the herd, it's an insightful thought which comes from inside, rather than outside. The introvert provides a new query to the crowd which breaks the flow, and introduces chaos. This dissonance is sickness, and must be fought. Neo-Luddism: Anything that existed before I was born is natural, anything that existed within my youth is new and exciting, and anything that exists after is an abomination. Our sciences will be the downfall of us all, we should return to a time when we churned our own milk and fought our wars with swords. They were better times. These are commonly held beliefs. I can't say I agree with them because: 1.) Evolution. 2.) That's the borg. 3.) What about all those plagues? But that's what Journey eschewed, plaintively, and without any shame. The white cloths were always presented with a godlike aesthetic similar to mainstream theologies such as Christian or Muslim beliefs. There were the glowing 'god beams' of light from on high, the domineering and divine omniscient presence, sharing its wisdom, and so on. Fairly obvious. And then there was the fallen technology and the story of how it brought about the end of their civilisation. In this story, you're unable to challenge this notion, you can't challenge the god, nor can you try to get the machines up and running again. It is, essentially, 'push forward to understand how you should be thinking.' There's nothing challenging about it. It's regressive propaganda, plain and simple. And, to a lot of the mainstream (very commonly amongst less intelligent people), this is romanticised. Especially the downfall of technology. All of those evil nuclear reactors. The average person is a bit peculiar and precious about that, really. I mean, they want power, but not the nuclear plants. They want chemicals, but not the chemical industry. They want meat, but not the animal farms or slaughter houses. And this is what Journey panders to -- follow the ways of your godbeing and they'll take care of all that. Leading right up to the ending with iconography designed to be reminiscent of the Rapture and Rebirth (as part of the herd, no less), since those things are apparently inspiring. I was bored by Journey. I've witnessed art in games, definitely, plenty of times. I love art. But Journey seems to be a cathartic experience, propaganda for those who want it, to coo softly into their ears and tell them that their beliefs are okay because Art agrees with them. It's faux art, it's a snake-oil salesman with an 'Art' stand of kitsch, contemporary artefacts, ready to sell to whatever gullible schmoes happen to stop by his stand. It's for the mundane thinker who watches too much television, who's likely never visited an art gallery in their life, hasn't read too many books, et cetera. I have seen ART now, I am enriched. Except it isn't art, is it? It's a crock of bull, it's propaganda, but it's not art. It has this essence of the Emperor's New Clothes about it, where the developer told people it was art. And the common person believed it, not wanting to look stupid. They never analysed it, questioned it, or stopped to think about whether it actually qualified as art. And the rest of it? Exploring a desert with ancient ruins? Hardly original. Singing magicks? I've seen that before, even entire cultures based around DMT. It's not particularly new or clever. So there's no appeal there, either. And it isn't a game, either, so that doesn't save it. It's just fake art for simple people.… Expand
Jul 13, 2014I think the best way to describe this game is to say that the person who referred me to it, and insisted it was amazing, was a huge stoner. Like, "I want to go through a car wash high to see what it's like, dude!" stoner.
Journey is very, very pretty. And it's a story. Just a story. This is not a game; there is very little actual game play (lots of walking, though!) and literally no difficulty or challenge in completing the game. The story itself is amazingly simple -- as in, I could literally tell you it in a 140 character blurb.
So I could go on, but this game doesn't warrant it. It's not that exciting, it's not complex, it's just eye catching, and that has it's place, but it's strange to view this as a ground breaking game experience when it'd be better suited to most any other form of media.… Expand
I do not understand these reviewers, it's as if we played a different game. I encourage you to read this before you spend the steep 15 dollars on this game. In short, Journey had so much potential and was initially so intriguing but by the end your journey is for nothing; there is no pay off, no explanation, and if you really made a bond with your SIX (or more) random pals may I introduce you to my wall?

Mar 22, 2013An ethereal, innovative, emotional cooperative experience, thatgamecompany's Journey is one that any PlayStation 3 owner should take.
Sep 20, 2012If there was ever a game deserving of the word beautiful in it's description, it's Journey. The game is stunning to look at, satisfying to play and oozes atmosphere from every angle of its dynamic story and immersive world. Sure it's short by regular game standards but Journey is not a regular game. If your ready for an experience that will surprise you, move you and stick with you for many years after its done, then maybe this is the Journey for you.
May 14, 2012Clever, emotive, and easily the best downloadable game so far this year. [June 2012, p.58]

Fashion Flashback – Calvin Klein Jeans
I thought it would be fun to post some of my favorite denim trends through the years. It's always good to have some new (or old) eye candy… I am especially a fan of Mark Wahlberg in CK- any chance to get him half naked is a good thing indeed.
Going back to the early 80s and 90s, when jeans became a fashion statement in addition to being a staple… Here are some of Calvin Klein Jeans ads – always racy, always pushing the envelope, and always, ALWAYS hot.

Kendra Wilkinson was out celebrating Hugh Hefner's 83rd birthday while wearing J Brand jeans. These jeans fit her like a glove, I guess it doesn't hurt to have a beautiful body to make these jeans look great! It's nice to see these girls have some Premium Denim style!

A quick check on the internet confirms that it's pretty unlikely anyone will be writing a multi-volume history of the electric knife sharpener anytime soon. There is an absolute dearth of information on the topic, but what is out there is very interesting.
Knives & Knife Sharpeners
Total Knife Care is the Australian and New Zealand Importer and Distributor for the Nirey Electric Knife Sharpener range and I.O.Shen Mastergrade Chef's Knives.
Total Knife Care was born as a result of the frustration experienced by an amateur chef in finding an effective knife sharpening system for all kitchen knives.
It is a fact that most kitchens contain a selection of knives - sometimes accumulated over years - which lay in a drawer- blunt, unusable and unloved! Total Knife Care believes that before buying an expensive new knife, you look at your sharpening method. More About Us

Earth Talk: Federal emphasis on green projects could create many new jobs
Dear EarthTalk: What kind of job opportunities might be opened up by the new federal emphasis on green projects?
—Dick Wetzler, St. Paul, Minn.
If it's a U.S. industry that has the potential to be cleaner and greener, chances are the Barack Obama (D) administration has already set aside some stimulus money for it. In February 2009, the new president signed the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act into law. Besides creating jobs, the bill promises to spur American companies to greener heights through investments totaling more than $75 billion.
According to Environment America, a federation of state-based environmental advocacy groups, the stimulus package includes $32.8 billion for clean energy projects, $26.86 billion for energy efficiency initiatives and $18.95 billion for green transportation. Some of the key green features of the bill include accelerating the deployment of "smart grid" technology (systems of routing power in ways that optimize energy efficiency), providing energy efficiency funds for schools, offering support for governors and mayors to beef up energy efficiency in private homes and public buildings, and establishing a new loan guarantee program to help renewable energy producers survive in down economic times.
With the private capital and credit so tight as a result of the recession, this influx of federal support is vital to help the still-fledgling green energy and transportation sectors stay afloat. And most economists agree it makes good sense to steer away from finite foreign oil toward homegrown renewable energy. Obama has promised the creation of some 500,000 jobs in the nation's burgeoning clean energy sector alone.
"The central facts here are irrefutable: Spending the same amount of money on building a clean energy economy will create three times more jobs within the U.S. than would spending on our existing fossil fuel infrastructure," writes University of Massachusetts economist Robert Pollin in The Nation. "The transformation to a clean energy economy can, therefore, serve as a major long-term engine of job creation."
Wind turbine engineers, insulation installers, recycling sorters and photovoltaic cell salespeople—along with the businesspeople behind them—can all look forward to bright and potentially lucrative futures.
This view is shared by the Solar Energy Industries Association, which predicts the stimulus will help create some 119,000 jobs in the American solar sector alone before the end of 2010. Employers from solar cell manufacturers to green building materials retailers to wind farm maintenance firms to recycling haulers to energy auditors will likewise be looking to swell their ranks of employees with relevant skills.
The federal government itself is also in on the recovery effort beyond doling out the money. According to the official Recovery Act Web site, the General Services Administration's Public Building Service will invest $5.55 billion in federal building projects, "including $4.5 billion to transform federal facilities into exemplary high-performance green buildings, $750 million to renovate and construct new federal offices and courthouses, and $300 million to construct and renovate border stations."
About $1 billion worth of projects will be undertaken—a boon for everyone in the building industry, including construction workers, electricians, plumbers, air conditioning mechanics, carpenters, architects and engineers.

Hello Suresh Das, I have to tell you that I admire you greatly, not only for your open candor with your psychological state but also for your ability to have faith even during a dark night. I have always disliked the idea that we are "tested" for our stamina, but the truth is that you inspire faith in others by your continued loyality. You seem like a modern Job and my prayer is that Krishna will lighten your burden. I myself have no qualifications, I'm not even a true practitioner, but your story gives me hope that even I can find a way to become focused on his Lotus feet.

Response to the ongoing debate
Excuse my lack of knowledge of Srila Prabupada's voluminous teachings, but I have always understood that the essence of ISKON was to glorify and spread Krishna Consciousness through the merciful teachings of Lord Chaitanya. I had naturally assumed that even demoniac behavior could be uplifted through the process of hearing, chanting and association. Proper Vaishnava behavior would never seem to condone a flaunting of ones sexual preference,even as sex itself is abandoned. Why must ISKON take a stand on homosexuality, I thought that all sin is to be overcome, not categorized and judged.

Hello, As one of the 99.99% of the less than imperfect souls, I can testify to the power of taking shelter of Lord Chaitanya. I had been chanting Hare Krishna without the shelter of a Spiritual Master and my appetite for Srimad Bagavatam and association of the devotees increased but my "negative attractions" seemed unsurmountable. Now that I have increased my Pancha Tattva rounds I have, almost instantly lost the desire for wine (which was a favorite for many years). I give the credit to the mercy of Lord Chaitanya and thank you to the devotees who brought this to my attention. I look forward to losing more hankerings which would impede my desire for Krishna only. Hari Bol

Please accept a short note, the above comment was not meant to be in bold, except for the quote from Srila Prabupada about the neophyte, excuse my lack of tech expertise. Perhaps I am reading these purports out of context, again I am only trying to understand the best path for someone who has a hard time disengaging the senses from the material entanglements. I was trying to send this comment before, but I'm not sure it went through because my computer hiccupped.
» Posted By mata On Mar 10, 2007 @ 6:01 pm
Please accept my gratitude for your inputs and also know that there is no intention here to sow discord, only to find the quickest way back to my Beloved, Krishna. Because I do recognize myself as a servent of the senses, and I do not qualify to receive a Spiritual Master on the earthly plane, I accept the guidance that Krishna sends to me through his devotees in order to disentangle myself, I went to the Adi-lila purport cited above and text 23 spoke to my heart, just as dancing and chanting do:
In distributing love of Godhead, Caitanya Mahaprabhu and His associates did not consider who was a fit candidate and who was not, nor where such distribution should or should not take place. They made no conditions. Wherever they got the opportunity the members of the Panca-tattva distributed love of Godhead.
It seems that this text also addresses the clicker issue, that is whenever we have the opportunity to remember Krishna, we need make no conditions on that. I find myself spontaneously chanting and singing Krishna's names throughout the day, when I am serving my family through cooking and attending to our farm. I guess because I am not very advanced I don't try to count those times nor to force them.
The reason I have asked for clarification with the Maha-mantra is this:
Cc Adi 8.31
caitanya-nityanande nahi esaba vicara, nama laite prema dena, vahe asrudhara
"But if one only chants, with some slight faith, the holy names of Lord Gauranga and Nityananda, very quickly he is cleansed of all offenses. Since in the chanting of the names of Nityananda-Gauranga there is no consideration of offenses, one will very quickly come to the stage of love of God, simply by chanting Their names and tears of pure love for Krishna will flow from the eyes."
[…]"For an ordinary man, worship of Sri Caitanya and Nityananda Prabhu or the Panca-tattva is easier than worship of Radha and Krsna. Unless one is very fortunate, he should not be induced to worship Radha-Krsna directly. A neophyte student who is not sufficiently educated or enlightened should not indulge in the worship of Sri Radha and Krsna or the chanting of the Hare Krsna mantra. Even if he does so, he cannot get the desired result. One should therefore chant the names of Nitai-Gaura and worship Them without false prestige."
and this:
[…] "The Hare Krsna maha-mantra considers the offenses whereas the names of Gaura-Nityananda don't consider offenses. An offensive chanter will never achieve the fruit of chanting (pure love for Krsna) by chanting the Hare Krsna maha-mantra. Therefore till the time he is commiting offenses, he should chant the names of Gaura-Nityananda. Due the repeated chanting of the names of Gaura-Nityananda, the offenses will destroyed and he will achieve the fruit of chanting."
Perhaps my ignorance is causing me to become confused. I just know that until I receive Krishna's mercy in whichever form, I will continue to pray for directions home.
I do wish to thank all the devotees for their singing and chanting bliss and to HG Bhurijana Prabhu for his downloadable Srimad Bhavagatum lectures which keep me in the company of pure devotees throughout the day.

I have a question about japa for the non-initiated person who loves Krishna but is unable to follow the 4 regulative principles due to a predominance of the lower gunas. I have read that in this case one should not chant Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare because Krishna will count the offenses, rather one should chant Shree Caitanya Nityananda because these appearances are more merciful. This seems confusing to me and at odds with the chant Hare Krishna concept spread by ISKON, because most people in the world are still ruled by the lower gunas.
