In order to facilitate the most efficient snow removal, all vehicles must be moved off the City's 16 Priority Streets as posted on the streets, which are listed below, once the snowfall reaches 3-inches. This will allow the City's snow removal and plowing crews to make sure the main thoroughfares within the City are plowed and passable. Vehicles must remain off the Priority Streets until the snow has stopped falling and the streets have been cleared from curb to curb. Parking Enforcement Officers and City Police Officers will be issuing parking tickets to those vehicles remaining on the Priority Streets after 3" of snow has fallen. In some instances, vehicles may be towed to make way for the plows on these Priority Streets:
Van Vranken Avenue – Entire LengthNott Street – Erie Blvd. to Wendell AvenueUnion Street – Entire LengthEastern Avenue – Nott Terrace to McClellan StreetBrandywine Avenue – State Street to Rugby RoadMcClellan Street – State Street to Rugby RoadState Street – Entire LengthErie Blvd. – State Street to I-890 Entrance RampsAlbany Street – Veeder Avenue to Elm StreetAltamont Avenue – Entire LengthSchuyler Street – Michigan Avenue to Altamont AvenueMichigan Avenue – Brandywine Avenue to Chrisler AvenueCrane Street – Broadway to City lineChrisler Avenue – Altamont Avenue to Crane StreetBroadway – State Street south to City lineCampbell Avenue – Broadway to Fairview Avenue
We advise those of you who normally park on any of the listed Priority Streets to find another place to park until the snow has stopped falling and the streets have been cleared from curb to curb. Do not park on the street if there are still vehicles in front of or behind your parking area where the snow has not yet been plowed. In major storms, the plows will have to make several passes on each priority street to make sure they are completely cleared.

Contemporary Art Collection on display in Colour Splash Exhibition, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery
9th July 2009
The latest exhibition opening at the Waterhall Gallery brings a welcome splash of colour to the heart of the city. This free show celebrates the vibrant use of colour in art, juxtaposing dazzling works of contemporary and abstract art with jewellery, craftwork to examine how artists and makers respond to the its endless possibilities.
Following the sequence of the rainbow, the show begins with Pop Art pioneer, Allen Jones, and heavyweight colourists, John Hoyland and Patrick Heron using the most emotive colour - red - to great effect. Orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet follow, with a sci-fi inspired glitter painting by Fiona Rae, and luscious swathes of paint by Gillian Ayres. Cool blues are provided by Sean Scully's Wall of Light (Blue) and a quirky abstract by Prunella Clough. The line up includes some of the greatest names in British art with works by Ben Nicholson, Howard Hodgkin, and YBA Ian Davenport whose violent approach to orange gloss paint still looks fresh twenty years on.
Colour Splash explores the power of colour to impress and express and offers a great opportunity to see some of the gems of the city's highly acclaimed Contemporary Art Collection. There will also be the museum's first showing of Warlu Warna by Australian Aboriginal artist Malcolm Jagamarra. Textiles, jewellery and African bead work –all from the Birmingham collection, add an insight into the decorative use of colour.

Cartier Watches
The story of Cartier watches begins in 1847, when Louis-Francois Cartier took the reins of his master's workshop. After a move to their famous Paris location and further development of their signature design, Louis Cartier, grandson of Louis-Francois, invented the "mysterious clock." Due to a cunning illusion the hands seemed to float over the face of the clock. Innovation such as this has been the hallmark of Cartier watches ever since, and sets them apart in the design of luxury Swiss watches. The collection of Cartier watches that you'll find at Dexclusive.com has been handpicked for one-of-a-kind value. We carry the Cartier Santos, Pasha, and Cartier tank watches.

I have difficulty getting a Thunder Clap debuff up on Sapphiron, and you'll see me attempt to do so several times as I get antsy. This is similar to the original encounter, and it helps to have another player get in there and apply the debuff.
Another thing -- you can put everyone on one side during this encounter. It's better to split up if you have a lot of melee to help avoid Blizzard (we have 3-4), but if your group is primarily ranged, putting everyone on one side can be a better way of getting heals out.

Well yeah, but seeing as shipping's $15 bucks a figure, that might've had something to do with it. Technically, you're paying about double retail.

I don't know if anyone else has seen it yet (I just saw the link to it on Galactic Hunter myself), but WM.com has opened their ROTS "store" online. Even though they aren't available to order yet, I noticed that the first wave of 12" dolls (Sidious, Clone, and Grievous) are priced at just under 19 bucks. This is actually very interesting news, considering the fact that WM last sold the 12" dolls at a 25 dollar price point (not counting the VOTC from last fall), and I figured they'd be gouging for every dollar they could get during "The Last Hurrah."
So, if you're looking to pick these up, it looks as if WM (for now) will have the best price on them.

If you plan on opening up this one for display - KEEP THE RUBBERBANDS!!
His hands will NOT hold these sabers without them!! I never usually cut the rubberbands and this is the one time it worked in my favor. You will need these to hold the sabers up. I have loaded some images to my 12" doll page below. Awesome figure though, cape is well made and I love the detailing on the back. You can separate his arms (see picture) to four distinct positions or combine them into two. No place to hang the extra sabers if you go with two hands but then I am not exactly sure what I should look for since I haven't seen the movie yet

Wow Beth, great pictures of Grievous and that emblem on the back of the cape is super.
I can't wait to get my hands on the figure.
Thanks for letting us know about the rubberband issue Beth, a big help.

Grevious Alert and Sidious review

You're welcome
I just loaded images of Darth Sidious and I have to say, the saber is what makes this one so perfect. His hand holds it well and he has plenty of articulation for battle poses just wish they would have given him a full black shirt instead of a half turtleneck.
The cape is full and thick and he has black pants and boots underneath with the half-shirt. The face is really good (really pale, which makes it all the more creepy with the hood up). I was surprised as I didn't think I would like it that much. The hood is just the right size so you can drap it forward and cover the top of his head completely, place it directly on top of his head (and still not look "too" roomy) or just drap it down the back.
Added the clonetrooper as well. I like this one since I will be able to put him in various poses (standing, running, kneeling) so I am going back to buy more of him. All in all, great job by Hasbro and I am can't wait for the 12" female jedi!!!

Nice Pics Jadesfire! I have the Ultimate Vader, Grievous and Sisious, but haven't opened them yet.
The only 12" figures I have displayed right now are my Marmit Fett and Medicom Luke.
Peacekeeper, when it absolutely, positively has to be nuked in 30 minutes or less. Or the next nuke's free!

Well, I've had two days to sit and simmer on this, and I have to say that the 12" Anakin/Vader Ultimate Villain doll is the most disappointing item I have gotten thus far. At first I thought it was just me needing to get used to how it worked, but after 2 days and several hours of trying to get it to do what it is advertised as being able to do (changing Anakin into Vader and all), I've simply given up. I'm so discouraged that I actually sent Hasbro an email telling them how in the 27 years or so that I've been collecting SW, and other Hasbro products like Joes and TFs in the 1980's, no other product has made me more frustrated and upset to the point of writing a letter than this doll.
Basically, for those of you who haven't opened it up, the Anakin uses the older, mid-90's Joe body. So he's bulkier, to be sure, but that's not the problem. The problem is that the ankles on this body are not articulated and it makes putting the boots on nearly impossible. The lower legs are one solid piece and the boots, being boots, are very tall, reaching almost to the knees of Anakin and all the way past on Vader. The material used for the boots is too rigid to roll them down, and it took me an hour just to get one Vader boot on and another two before I finally gave up on the second one and redressed him as Anakin.
This kind of goes into what Tydirium has been saying about Hasbro's recent "They're toys and meant to be played with!" attitude on their website, because the action features on the small figures, while questionable in quality, are only a 6 dollar mistake. This entire figure/doll is based on the premise of being able to change outfits and due to his feet and boots, you can't even do that without large machinery and the Force itself apparently. As I told Hasbro, if I, well-educated and possessing fine motor skills, am unable to put boots on a doll, what hope does a 10 year old kid (their target audience that they always talk about) have of doing so?
So, yeah, Anakin/Vader is back in his box (after an hour spent getting his Anakin boots back on
and I'm really regretting the 45 dollars I spent on it. Naturally, K-Mart won't take it back since it has been opened, so I'm (for the moment) stuck with a 12" Anakin/Vader that is useless to me.

Wow, very sorry to hear about the poor quality of Vader/Anakin and really sorry K-mart won't take it back. I never opened mine yet and I'm glad I didn't. I will probably be returning mine now since I wanted to be able to change them back and forth when the mood suits me and since it's not going to be an option, back to Target he goes.
I do appreciate you sharing this, though, as it saved me a giant headache (and some cash too).

Thank you for the kind words, jadesfire, but after all, it is only a toy (at least that's what I keep telling myself). I'm going to try and see what K-Mart could do (even if it's just store credit, I would go that route before getting a replacement that would have the same problem), but I'm actually curious to hear what Hasbro's response to my letter is (if any).
I just find it really disheartening that this doll, which by all rights should have been the centerpiece of the ROTS toy lineup overall, ended up having a major flaw that affects its ability to do what the box and all the marketing implicitly states it does.
I'll let everyone know if/when I hear back from Hasbro. I'm not wanting a replacement or anything like that (although if they did a new one with the new style body, with articulated ankles, I probably would take that), but I'm actually more worried about people buying it en masse and taking it home to the kids only to find out that Vader has to get around barefoot unless they want to cut the backs of the boots in half.
EDIT: Update 1-I just finished speaking to someone at K-Mart's 800 number regarding the situation. According to this phone representative, since I still have the original packaging (sans the rubber bands) and the register receipt, and since it is still in the 90-day return window, she stated that I should have no problem returning the Vader for a refund. When I mentioned to her that I had bought the doll at a K-Mart store quite a distance from where I lived and asked if I could return it to a closer K-Mart (like you can with Wal-Mart), she stated that it should not be a problem, but to call and speak to the manager and explain the situation to him before I made the trip out there. I will update tomorrow morning when I know something for sure.

Something about that Anakin/Vader just doesn't look right to me. Aside from the $45 price tag, I mean. I've already got 2 good 12" Vaders and a crappy Anakin, so I feel like this is enough. I passed on the new Anakin/Vader 12" on 4/2 and I'm glad I did.
I'm really digging the packaging on these new 12" figures too, so much so that I've been unable to bring myself to open them up just yet, but that might change very soon. I'm still undecided if I want to pick up another of each, since I don't keep any of my 12" collection boxed, but the packaging on these just kicks so much ass I may have to.

Raising the D.C. flag issue
WTOP's Kathy Stewart reports.
WASHINGTON - At the Naval Station Great Lakes graduation ceremony in Illinois, flag bearers carrying the state flag of each recruit stopped in front of the graduate - raising and lowering the flag in recognition. The families of the recruit shouted and cheered in celebration.
That is except for Seaman Jonathan Rucker's family, who couldn't cheer because there was no flag from the District of Columbia at the ceremony.
A memorandum from the Undersecretary of Defense states that military departments are encouraged, but not required to display the D.C. flag and flags of U.S. territories during events.
"While D.C. residents continue to serve their country in every branch of the military, only the Army has acted to ensure the flags of the District and the territories are raised in the nation's ceremonies and honors," D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton released in a statement.
Rucker's mother, Tomi, says she was disappointed that there was no flag for her son and thought it was unfair.
"There was no recognition for my son's service," she says.
In March, Tomi sent a letter to Norton, informing her that the United States Navy failed to recognize the service of her son with the flag of the District, where he was born and raised.
Norton took the issue to heart and wrote to President Barack Obama, asking him to take action so the flags of the District and U.S. territories are included when all 50 state flags are raised during armed forces events and whenever federal agencies and civilian organizations display them.
Speaking before the D.C. World War I Memorial on Veterans Day, Norton honored veterans for their service and also told the Ruckers' story.
Norton read aloud part of Tomi's letter, saying Jonathan was prepared "to lay his life on the line for a country that will not acknowledge his service."
When a young man graduates from one of the services, he should be entitled to have the flag raised in his honor, Norton says.
Besides appealing to the president, Norton is calling on the Senate to pass the 2013 Defense Authorization bill that includes a provision requiring the D.C. flag be displayed by the military whenever flags of the 50 states are raised.
The provision was passed by the House the past two years, but it was dropped from last year's Defense Authorization bill due to objections from Senate Republicans.
This time, Norton says she hopes that the Senate will not strip the provision.
She says the Ruckers faced unnecessary pain and humiliation that "any American parents would feel if the respective state flag were used to mark each young person's membership in our armed services, except their flag."

Last week I was "shopping" the house, trying to find items to decorate the mantel, I found everything that was needed except for hearts! I really wanted to incorporate hearts but didn't find any. What's a Valentine without hearts?! That's when I remembered my good blogging friend Diana, from Nana Diana Takes a Break, she posted HERE about these cuties just days ago!
I love them! Go check them out and say hello to Diana, that's going to help her feel a bit better, since she is sick :(
Well, Diana's hearts were my inspiration, but "my heart" got some little changes. Well, big changes. I did what I thought was going to be easier and faster for me to do. I made my first heart, the one you saw on the chair in front of the fireplace in less than 20 minutes! I took no pictures, I just needed that heart to be ready for taking the mantel pics.
During the weekend I went back to make another one and I did take pics to show you how you can make one for yourself.
I didn't check my daughter's room when I first looked around the house for hearts, she had the perfect one, and that's the one I traced around my fabric. You can find the pattern HERE.
The materials you'll need:
- 2 Heart shapes cut out of the fabric of your choice.
- 2 Heart shapes cut out of batting (sometimes when I'm running out of batting I used felt, it works for me).
- 2 24" pieces of ribbon.
- Some pillow-stuffing, and
- A small piece of Stich Witchery hem tape.
I started putting the pieces together in a rather hasty way, we had some plans. In my hurry I did not pay attention and things went wrong! I noticed my mistake when trying to turn the right side out! :(
After undoing all those stitches it was time to do it the proper way. The right side of the fabrics facing each other! Got to learn from my own mistakes!
Then, it can be stuffed and closed up ironing the hem tape.
All ready for picture time!
I'm pretty happy with how they turned out, I love the polka-dots!

WASHINGTON - A Prince George's sheriff's deputy fatally shot a man while he was trying to serve a court order Wednesday evening.
Sheriff's officials say a "female" let the deputy into a home at 6312 63rd Ave. in Riverdale about 7:30 p.m. to serve a peace order, which is a type of protective order for unrelated persons.
Once the deputy was inside, a man stepped from the back of the home with a gun. The deputy fired his service weapon and hit the 39-year-old man, who was taken to an area hospital and pronounced dead, officials said.
Police did not release the victim's name.
Sheriff's officials also have not released the deputy's name but said he is a veteran with the department.
The officer has been placed on routine administrative leave.

Sharp 0.9 Cu. Ft. 900 Watt Convection Microwave - Black, White, or Stainless Steel
The Sharp 0.9 Cu. Ft. 900 Watt Convection Microwave (R820BK, R820BW, R820JS) is one of the world's first convection microwave with over and under grills for superior browning and crisping.

Imagine steaks and burgers cooked brown on the outside, rare on the inside or casseroles that are crisp on top and moist underneath. Hard to believe, but with the Sharp 0.9 Cu. Ft. 900 Watt Convection Microwave, even pizza crust bakes up brown and crispy, with no need to preheat the oven. Perfect for today's popular new rising crust pizzas, too.

This is his final year of touring....maybe his finale could be at the polo fields?
We've spent so much time judging what other people created that we've created very, very little of our own.
― Chuck Palahniuk, Choke
I worked a show of his once where they trucked in 4 loads of dirt and put it on the arena floor. He road a horse around the entire show while singing. The show didnt end until he had drank so much tequila that he was ready to fall off the horse. He could easily play the campgrounds thursday night.

well you can't say he doesn't have the catalogue to play... what's he got, like 50 albums? lol.
I'm seeing him at the staples center in March.
Awesome....that will probably be a great show considering it is one of his last.

AYE AYE! lol that would be great.
I'd love to see Instituto Mexicano Del Sonido back on the grounds. or even Hello Seahorse...their set last year was amazing!
Only after sunset otherwise his face and dye will melt off.
LMAO. Some of you would prefer this lame fuck instead of Incubus?
Hahahaha Incubus haven't released a good album since like 2001 they started from being a funk/rap/nu metal/ band to alternative now they sound like they want to be the next Train or Maroon 5. It's sad what they became that's not evolving that's just trying to sound relevant with latest music scene. I wonder if now they are going for a EDM sound. I bet people want to see KoRn or Limp Bizkit in Coachella cause it is so 1999. If you want to see Incubus in concert go to a Kiss Fm concert or I heart radio festival were they mix mainstream pop artist's with mainstream rock/adult contemporary music.
he's playing in San Jose on April 14
He's not lame and no one is saying they prefer Incubus over Chente on this thread. And what the guy below said is right. I saw Incubus for my birthday when they came out with Black heart Inertia... The album just does not have as much depth as their previous albums. Sorry guy, but it's true.
Still no

Confused Direction was very careful to ensure that their Silverbeaver Hausboot was made of the most efficient materials so that the project has a tiny footprint. To this end, they clad the boat in locally-sourced Larch wood, which doesn't contrast at all with the local environment, Resopal for the kitchen and bathroom surfaces, and super insulated windows.
The boat home is flooded with daylight and heating is provided by a Bullerjan Oven – technology that relies on the convection of heated air. Since this is a relatively small space, the program's overall carbon footprint is negligible. Two terraces provide a connection with the outdoors, including one on the roof, and all of the interior furnishings were designed by Flo Florian and Sascha Akkermann of Confused Direction, whose awesome work we have featured before.

"The Single-Payer Train Has Left the Station"
A corporate public relations executive for 20 years, Wendell Potter left his job as Vice President of corporate communications for U.S. health care giant CIGNA to become an advocate for reforming the United States' broken health care system. He is the author of Deadly Spin: An Insurance Company Insider Speaks Out on How Corporate PR Is Killing Health Care and Deceiving Americans, a critique of the U.S. health care system that examines the industry's manipulative tactics through the lens of his experience at CIGNA.
In this video, Potter discusses how Vermont's progress toward creating a state-run single-payer health care system could be the beginning of a trend toward a health care system that prioritizes patients over profits.

Spasmo Coroner's Report
- Words: Ron Nachmann
- Label: Direct Source
Producers Neil Sanford and Endeavour roll some downtempo acoustic cinematic jazz for that azz. "Half Man, Half Dead"'s twinkling vibes, sinewy bass and acoustic guitar spell sheer anxiety, as does the calm military funk of "Official Business," while "Silhouette City" skirts spaghetti-western territory without going corny, and "A Siders Touch" keeps the Schifrin vibe rollin' into dimly lit streets.

Shake Shack is set to open their new Philly restaurant in the beginning of the summer at 2000 Sansom Street (corner of 20th and Sansom), near beautiful Rittenhouse Square in Center City. Until it's complete, they've got a temporary wall up around the construction site. But rather than let that be a boring old plywood wall, they asked Philadelphia-based designers and living installation fabricators Shift_Design to create a totally unique living wall to cover the construction site.
The vertical garden is reminiscent of the burger shack's first permanent kiosk which was covered in ivy to make it more harmonious with its location in a Manhattan park. Shift_Design's installation features an array of custom panels and planters made from recycled steel filled with varying types of ivy, seasonal flowers, trailing vines, and evergreen shrubs. The installation and the signage givepasserby something more pleasant to look at and breathes a little fresh air into the busy street. After construction is complete and the temporary wall is taken down, Shake Shack will donate the plants and planters to the Rittenhouse Square Flower Market for Children's Charities.

When It Comes to Kids, Is Climate a Four-Letter Word?
My daughters, Saoirse and Ula, are no strangers to four-letter words. They're growing up with farmers, for crying out loud! And no self-respecting farmer around Schoharie County is going to doll up the natural functions of nature with cutesy euphemisms or scientific jargon. When Saoirse was learning to talk, we tried cleaning up our language a bit—but her grandmother swears like a trucker, and her great-grandfather was adamant that such language is best learned at home. So we gave up. We just tell the girls "those are grown-up words. When you're old enough to know how to use them properly, you can use 'em, too."
Thus, it's rather amusing when people come to the farm and say things like "I've got s-h-i-t on my shoes" (I do believe most 8-year-olds, and even a lot of 4-year-olds, can decipher s-h-i-t). If they have linguistic slips around my children, most people are quickly apologetic, and often turn crimson with embarrassment.
Yet very few people think twice about walking into the kitchen, pulling up a chair, and saying things like "this world is going to h-e-double-hockey-sticks. If the earth's temperature rises just a few more degrees, that'll be the end of the human race!"
Okay, call me weird. I really don't care if you say "hell" in front of my children. But it seriously irks me that grown-ups don't consider the trauma they're inflicting on worried young minds by telling them that their lives—and all the beautiful nature that feeds their souls—are in inevitable peril.
This is not to say that I am in denial about climate change. Bob and I think about this constantly. But I do not believe it is helpful to burden children with frightening facts about the state of the planet when they are powerless, at their young age, to act upon it. I can't think of a more effective way to make them disengage from the world around them—to cut themselves off from nature, to choose apathy as an act of self-defense—for fear of becoming too attached to something that will be ripped away.
I want my children to connect to their natural world, to have a childhood that fills them up with earthly joys. I can think of no better way to fuel a fire in adulthood to heal our planet. But I don't think little kids should have to hear about these serious and frightening issues, especially depicted with the dramatic flair that grown-ups find necessary for climate change discussions.
I still believe children should be raised with an awareness of their impact on the earth. But rather than frightening them, I prefer to empower my daughters. We teach them to pick up litter, use up leftovers, to compost. We walk in our fields with our livestock and talk about the importance of the spongy soil beneath our feet and the power of the blades of grass between our toes. We limit the number of trips in our car, we sew buttons back on their dresses, we repeat the words of Thoreau ("my greatest skill is to want but little)," and we perpetually strive to cultivate that as our ultimate achievement.
On Facing Judgment
Live radically, and you'll inevitably face the judgment of others. For Shannon Hayes, loving unconditionally is the antidote.
I cannot cover their ears whenever a well-meaning (and justifiably angry) adult rages about the consequences of our unsatisfactory response to climate crisis. I wince and endure it. When the girls ask questions later on, Bob and I don't deny the problem. But we do try to direct their attention instead to what we are doing about it: "That's why we grow food for our community. That's why we don't buy all those plastic toys. That's why we try not to drive so much. That's why Mommy and Daddy are writing, speaking, and protesting." We emphasize that there is a better world that can come of all this, that we can adapt. If we want to see change, then we can't frighten and discourage the young minds who will be responsible for seeing it through.
Love is a far more powerful motivator than fear. While we cannot bleep out my friends' and neighbors' fear-inducing remarks about the climate, Bob and I can encourage Saoirse and Ula to love their planet, let them know that they have the power to change it, and most importantly, be part of the change ourselves….even if that means putting up with a little extra s-h-i-t.
