we share the same birthdate, elizabeth nicole (along with the late jim morrison). hello.
who are your top 3 artists that you'd like to see (or would like to have seen) in concert (dead or alive).
and, i'd follow monklish's instructions about less top. you've got them; flaunt them.
Since I grew up on the Beatles, I would have loved to have seen them in their heyday. Bad Religion got me into punk but for some reason I've never been able to catch them. I'd like to get a chance to see Arcade Fire the next time they tour.
I'll take this advice under review.
Whiskey Sour
2 oz blended whiskey
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1 cherry
1/2 slice lemon
Shake blended whiskey, juice of lemon, and powdered sugar with ice and strain into a whiskey sour glass. Decorate with the half-slice of lemon, top with the cherry, and serve.
Nice to meet you Liz. So, how come you live in Raleigh? I saw somwhere you went to school in Florida. Did you move to NC for the job or did you spend some time in NC when you were moving around with your parents?
^ I haven't spent a ton of time in Raleigh, but North Carolina definitely has its ups. I drive through Raleigh often.
Have you ever wanted to take 40 from end to end just for the hell of it? It starts in Wilmington and ends in Barstow, CA. I've dreamt of doing this.
What are your favorite hair metal bands?
Hunting has been part of our society since the first Europeans came over and shot buffalo and Native Americans and whatnot.

Also, it is an unfortunate thing I have to do from time to time because I have one cat with some serious colon issues. It's easier than dropping $300 at the vet each time he gets backed up. He's really old, so it's not something that I will have to do for very long.
Liz, please describe your most outlandish Matanza experience.
You seem to be fairly adept at written communication, which is odd for architects and engineers. Why are you different?
Hunting has been part of our society since the first Europeans came over and shot buffalo and Native Americans and whatnot.
The Dive Poets
Have you ever changed your mind about a musician or band you used to like because their personality (as you imagined it) changed? "Selling out" for example?
I'll go with Method Man since he's really the only member that I'm familiar with.
So far this week is much more interesting than I thought it would be. Liz, at a show are you an up front kind of girl, a hang in the back, or does it depend on the band?
Say you didn't have a boyfriend and this board was your entire dating pool. Who would you be interested in based on photos, posts, real interactions or whatever and why?
Liz, seeing as how you stated you're living in sin in the bible belt and I'm alll too familiar with this southern evangelical damnation, do you get crap either from your or your boyfriend's family for not getting married? Are there any fanatics in your immediate vicinity which you are forced to deal with on a consistent basis? What would most likely happen if you hung a giant gay pride flag from your porch?
Voodoo 04, 06, 07, 08, 09 : Bonnaroo 07 : Coachella 10
It depends on the band. I'm all for throwing elbows and pushing my way to the front rail if it's going to be a really energetic set, or if it's a small venue. But sometimes it's better to hang in the back; there's something to be said about lying down in the grass at Coachella once the sun goes down to catch a set. I did that for Roger Waters and it made for an excellent experience.

There were top ten times in Friday's Chinese GP practice for Jenosn Button, Adrian Sutil and Paul di Resta...
Jenson Button: "We can't yet conclusively tell if the upgrades we brought to this race have improved the car. They're perhaps not as big a step forward as we'd expected - the issues with the car are still there - but the car does feel a little bit better. We've worked very hard over the last few weeks to bring the new parts here - which is great. Today's been all about putting mileage on those parts; now we need to sit down and look at the data this evening - there's a lot to look through. I feel we'll be using the Prime tyre quite a lot in the race. The Option tyre transforms the car completely; over one lap, there's a lot more grip, but then you start to lose time over each successive lap. My puncture happened after I'd already decided to pit. I got to the braking zone at Turn 14, locked up the front left and the tyre just punctured - there was a hole through it. It's a good job that corner is just before the pits. I don't think we'll be fighting at the front this weekend, but we'll definitely be fighting someone."
Sergio Perez: "Today was a difficult day for me, but an important one for the team. I had two offs - in the morning, I was running on cold, worn tyres, locked the wheels and just touched the barrier. went into the barrier. In FP2, we don't really understand what happened because I wasn't really pushing at the time. Still, I'm sure we will improve tomorrow. I'll effectively be starting from zero because I'll adopt a completely new set-up. That won't make things easier, but I think we've gathered some useful data today and that will ensure we make good progress for the future. The target for tomorrow is to get into Q3. For Sunday, the tyres will play a big role; it'll be essential to manage the degradation and plot the perfect strategy, but I know the team is very good in these areas, so I'm optimistic. I think we can have a good result on Sunday."
Force India:
Adrian Sutil: "I'm feeling happy with how things went today. There were no major issues and we managed to test a lot of different things on the car, especially on the aero side. The important thing now is to understand which are the right parts and the best settings to use for the rest of the weekend. In terms of the tyres there is a big difference between the compounds, with the medium performing better than the soft. I think we look quite competitive, but it's too early to say exactly where we stand."
Paul di Resta: "I think the story of the day was mainly about tyres and trying to understand how to get the most out of them. We've done as much as we could, but I think everybody found quite a big difference between the two compounds. Also, this is a track with characteristics that are always quite demanding on the tyres. We worked through the programme, tried a lot of different settings with the car and need to study the data carefully tonight to make the right decisions for the rest of the weekend."
Esteban Gutierrez: "Generally the sessions were positive and helped us to understand what our issues are and to find a step forward. This is something that keeps us going and pointing us in the right direction. I think there is still a lot of room for improvement. Unfortunately, at the end of the second session we had an oil leak, which, of course, is not what you want to have. However it is good it happened now and not later in the weekend, so hopefully we will have two trouble-free days from now on."
Nico Hulkenberg: "I think overall the day wasn't too bad. We got quite a lot of testing done and pretty much got through all that we wanted to try. It is quite interesting with the tyres, and it will be a challenge on Sunday with the soft compound. It is much quicker on a single lap. The modified rear wing we have here is a step forward, and the car definitely feels a bit better with it. How much of a step this is, is difficult to say, so we have to look a little bit deeper into the data and wait until tomorrow. Overall, it was a positive day, but there is still some work ahead of us."
Toro Rosso:
Daniel Ricciardo: "We were a little bit pessimistic coming here after how we performed in this race last year. But after today, I am feeling happier, because we definitely look to be in better shape this time. Another good point is that we made progress between FP1 and FP2 today. It's still not enough if we want to catch our closest rivals, but we are moving in the right direction. As for the tyres, the Soft was very good over a single flying lap and I was quite happy with the performance advantage it produced compared to the Prime. On the longer runs the tyres suffer a bit more and there are already plenty of marbles on the track, but we always expected to see quite high degradation here."
Jean-Eric Vergne: "Last year, the Chinese weekend did not go so well for us and I can say we have made a better start this time round. Daniel and I ran slightly different programmes today as we had a lot of items on our job sheet to work through, so it made sense to split the workload between us. We will look at the data from both cars in order to find the best set-up to move forward tomorrow, so that we can have a better car. I am quite confident we can be quicker. As expected, it looks as though the tyres will have a tough time here, especially the Softs, but it's the same for everyone, so no real concern there."

Hurthle (HEERT-luh) cell cancer is a rare form of cancer affecting the butterfly-shaped thyroid gland in the front part of the lower neck. The thyroid secretes hormones that are essential for regulating your body's metabolism.
Hurthle cell cancer is also called Hurthle cell carcinoma or oxyphilic cell carcinoma. Hurthle cell cancer is one of several types of cancer that affect the thyroid.
Hurthle cell cancer can be more aggressive than other types of thyroid cancer. Surgery to remove the thyroid gland is the most common treatment for Hurthle cell cancer.
Signs and symptoms of Hurthle cell cancer may include:
These signs and symptoms don't necessarily mean you have Hurthle cell cancer. They may be indications of other medical conditions — such as inflammation of the thyroid gland or a noncancerous enlargement of the thyroid (goiter).
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have any signs or symptoms that worry you.
It's not clear what causes Hurthle cell cancer.
Doctors know that cancer begins when a cell develops errors in its DNA. DNA is the genetic material that contains the instructions for every biochemical process in your body. When DNA is altered or damaged, these genes may not function properly, causing cells to grow out of control and eventually form a mass (tumor) of cancerous (malignant) cells.
Factors that increase the risk of developing Hurthle cell cancer include:
Possible complications of Hurthle cell cancer include:
Start by making an appointment with your family doctor or a general practitioner if you have signs and symptoms that worry you. If Hurthle cell cancer is suspected, you may be referred to a doctor who specializes in treating thyroid disorders (endocrinologist) or a doctor who specializes in treating cancer (oncologist).
Because appointments can be brief, it's often helpful to arrive well prepared. Here's some information to help you get ready and what to expect from your doctor.
Your time with your doctor may be limited, so preparing a list of questions can help you make the most of your time together. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For Hurthle cell cancer, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment at any time that you don't understand something.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to discuss points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
Tests and procedures used to diagnose Hurthle cell cancer include:
Treatment for Hurthle cell cancer may include:
Total or near-total thyroidectomy is the most common treatment used for Hurthle cell cancer. During this operation, all or nearly all of the thyroid gland is removed. The surgeon leaves tiny edges of thyroid tissue near the adjacent parathyroid glands to lower the likelihood of parathyroid injury. These small parathyroid glands regulate your body's calcium level. Surrounding lymph nodes may be removed if there's suspicion that the cancer has spread to them.
The greatest risk associated with the operation is unintended injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerve, which could cause temporary or permanent hoarseness or a loss of your voice. Other complications include damage to the parathyroid, excessive bleeding and infection.
After surgery for Hurthle cell cancer, your doctor will prescribe the hormone levothyroxine (Levoxyl, Levothroid, others), which replaces the hormone no longer being produced because of the absence of the thyroid. You'll need to take this synthetic hormone for the rest of your life.
Radioactive iodine therapy involves swallowing a capsule that contains a radioactive liquid.
Radiation therapy using a capsule containing radioactive iodine-131 is often prescribed following surgery for Hurthle cell cancer. It may help to destroy any microscopic thyroid tissue that remains after surgery. At times, a higher dose of radioiodine can be used to eliminate any malignant cells that have spread to other parts of the body.
Radioiodine therapy can cause temporary side effects including sore throat, dry mouth, decrease in taste sensations, neck tenderness and nausea.
Radiation therapy uses high-powered energy beams, such as X-rays, to kill cancer cells. During radiation therapy, you're positioned on a table with a machine moved around you delivering the radiation to specific points on your body. Radiation therapy may be an option if cancer cells remain after surgery and radioactive iodine treatment.
Radiation therapy side effects include a sore throat, a sunburn-like skin rash and fatigue.
Although many alternative or nontraditional treatments — from vitamins to herbs — are sometimes promoted for use in treating cancer, none has been proved helpful in the management of Hurthle cell cancer or other types of thyroid cancer. If you have questions about a specific alternative treatment, talk with your doctor about the potential risks and benefits of the treatment.
There are few specific measures you can take to prevent Hurthle cell cancer. However, you may be able to lower your risk by reducing your exposure to radiation from X-rays and other sources whenever possible.
A diagnosis of Hurthle cell cancer can be challenging and frightening. Even when a full recovery is likely, you may worry about a recurrence of the disease. But no matter what your concerns or prognosis, you're not alone. Here are some strategies and resources that may make dealing with this cancer easier:

The Baptist denomination is the largest free church denomination in the world with over forty-three members around the world. However, nearly thirty-three million Baptists live in America. The origins of Baptist churches can be traced back to John Smyth and the Separatist Movement in 1608 that began in England. Something that makes the Baptist church's beliefs unique is that they believe in the baptism of adult believers instead of infant baptism. Baptist denominations follow a congregational church governance in which each individual congregation is governed autonomously. Thanks for using ChurchAngel.com - the ultimate church finder!More

I was planning on ordering my Castle Grayskull this weekend but now I'm a little concerned after reading Scotts Q&A. I love the way the Castle looks in the blueprints. Now he's saying it will lean more towards the prototype in the actual sculpt. That's not the Castle Grayskull I remember. The reason the casual fans like myself love this line is because it reminds them of their childhood toys. I imagine the only fans that want the Castle to look like the prototype would be the hardcore fans. I never even saw what the proto looked like till last week. If I'm putting down $250 I don't want to hear that the look of the Castle may not be what is being shown. Do most fans here prefer the proto to how it looks in the blueprints? Just curious.
"A knight is sworn to valor. His heart knows only virtue. His blade defends the helpless. His word speaks only truth. His wrath undoes the wicked."
Mattel won't greenlight this without the minimum.
PLEASE consider pre-ordering if your on the fence about this!
It's Castle Grayskull. Made by the Four Horsemen! these guys are passionate about this castle to say the least!!!
It's going to be amazing when you see it in 3D.
This is the moment to order your very own Castle Grayskull for what is easily the Best MotU line there has ever been and possibly ever will be!

I ment to ask him if they could find a way to make the Grayskull stands compatible with the Castle in some way. Oh well, maybe next time.
I mean, I'm still gonna get it... but I am not a fan of the rejected prototype version. I don't mind a few 'nods' or inspirations... but I hope they don't go TOO crazy.
Frankly between the minaret and that ledge I hate so much... I think we have ENOUGH proto nods.
I want the 'ULTIMATE' castle. Give it a few elements from all the following IN THIS ORDER.
1) Box art
2)Vintage Toy
Want so badly!
Hmm, I all-capped the above for emphasis, but seems the org won't allow. Please read it as if it were in all-caps the way nature intended.

So the way I see it, this is my last chance to get a full blown, heart poured into Castle from Scott and the Horsemen who will have the best from vintage, Filmation and 200x put into it, it's the ultimate Grayskull, so I'm buying it no matter what. I have the past two castles, so I need this one to complete my collection.
...I just want it made.... I [REALLY] want a MOTUC Castle Grayskull!!

For the record, the prototype version wasn't rejected based on its look, otherwise we wouldn't have seen it drawn in the mini comics or elements of it featured on packaging artwork.
It was streamlined and chopped down for production ease.
The prototype's look is precisely what the creators wanted it to look like.
I'm glad to hear they're finally going to get something that more closely matches their vision. (Provided we meet the minimum.)

The classics line has been about many things, but one of the main things is making figures look they way they should have in the 80s, but couldn't b/c of limitations. The same is true for the castle. And it will rock.
I for one am happy that TG and the Horsemen chose the prototype to base Castle Grayskull on. And I hope that they still find a way to include the moat / chasm playmat.

Can someone post a pic of the prototype Castle Grayskull? I don't remember where I saw it. I'm trying to convince myself that I'll be happy with the Castle even if looks more like the prototype than the original toy and box art. I'm on the fence and I need a push. Thanks.
"A knight is sworn to valor. His heart knows only virtue. His blade defends the helpless. His word speaks only truth. His wrath undoes the wicked."
Thank you guys for posting the prototype pics. It has a creepier look to it than proposed classics grayskull. That's not a bad thing. The small jawbridge looks goofy but it would obviously be bigger. It's the protruding mouth that bugs me the most though. I'll assume that it won't stick out quite that far in the final design. I might as well preorder it. I'm sure I'll have no trouble selling it if I end up being disappointed with it. The wife already gave me her blessing so I should take advantage of that. Off to Matty Collector I go.
Thanks so much for the Q&A, I'm re-hyped!!! I'm pretty happy with most of the answers (the rotating wall-door to the legendary ledge is awesome) and I love the prototype, so I can't wait for it!
Come on, everyone! Let's get this done!
Congratulations! MOTUC 2015!
Good decision to go for a more prototype look. It really is a better look than the original playset, IMO. Of course, to me, the best Grayskull design will always be Filmation. But the prototype look has always been a close second.

That's too bad about the Wind Raider attachment. If it doesn't go on top, I'll probably not buy a WR. Still on board for the castle, but I was hoping for this.
Mr favorite version of Castle Grayskull is the box-art. The design they are showing for Classics looks very similar to it, I hope the final isn't changed too much.

This party pack was perfect for my two year old son. We couldn't find John Deere stuff in many other places. The quality and prices was great!

Title: Great Quality
Date: Jun 30, 2011
The plates were nice and thick and the cups were durable too. The plastic silverware was good quality. The centerpiece needed a little scotch tape on the bottom to stand up right but that's no big deal. Overall this was a great buy. I only wish some crayons were included for the activity mats because I didn't have any so those went to waste.

This would be grat for a smaller party, but we had 40 plus guests and and to buy more plates and ballons. It was great because it had it all! Also with the balloons and string it cost less to have them filled because we had the items! I would suggest this package to anyone to buy!

Title: John Deere 2nd Party Pack
Date: Feb 09, 2011
I absolutly love this entire package! It is very well put together and everything matches. The only thing I would change is the number 2 candle. It is outlined in blue and would look better if it was outlined in green.. but that is my only complaint.
Shipping is also very fast. I got the cheapest shipping there was expecting it within 2 weeks, i received my stuff within 4 days of ordering!
I will e buying from elebrate Express again.

Title: Not really worth the money
Date: Oct 20, 2010
Invitations look cheap, not enough plates, generic balloons, etc. I would have paid more for nicer quality products.
