The intro in the first song, "Dragging Dead Bodies in Blue Bags Up Really Long Hills", is a great build up with a fitting roll on the snare drum. At about 22 seconds into the first track one of the guitarists shreds an amazing riff that I'm sure anyone would love and thankfully, is repeated at a few points throughout the song. A few more seconds go by and the amazingly talented vocalist Ronnie Radke commences his recitation of his wicked lyrics. And then, the almost expected stereotypical hardcore-style screaming was belched out. Not that I'm complaining mind you, it adds to the song for sure. And when the vocals overlap from one singer to another and then some out of sync duet singing starts it makes an even bigger impact. And somehow the outro, in which the lyrics are nearly the same as the title of the song, brings me back to my collection of Death Metal.
Though you're still in awe from the first track and the excessive talent this band has, keep listening. "There is No Sympathy For The Dead" is the song that instantly turned me on to this band! Why? Well you'll see why. With a mix of lighter melodies and some heavier hardcore riffs the one thing making this track even better is the wickedly excellent guitar solo a little over midway through the song. These guys have some mad talent and this song shows it. Near the end the song slows, giving you sometime too cool off from the wicked music until the tracks change.
"The Ransom" is a slower, lighter song. It still rocks though; it gives off an emo feel because it's the kind of song you would listen to when you're feeling a bit down. But then again, I'm not sad and I find this song quite enjoyable. The switches from a clean to distorted electric guitars are good in any song and these guys certainly know how to use it.
As soon as the song changed to "As You're Falling Down," I felt like I was listening to a lighter version of Godsmack. Then you're brought back to some well placed stops and starts on the guitars and bass while the drums keep the rhythm. Then we hear some lighter sounds. All this is repeated to an eventual hardcore breakdown which is perfect for some slow headbanging. The song finishes with some riffs from the middle of the track.
The only way this band could finish off this amazing album is with "The Guillotine." This song combines, Hardcore, Post Hardcore and Melodic Punk with an '80s Metal inspired solo. The ending fades after what I call a "Death Metal March."
I wish I could give this album a higher rating but unfortunately there are still improvements which should be looked over. First off, the screaming... they need a bit more practice is all. At least for one of the screamers, one has an actual scream whereas the other is more of an extended belch of words. Another problem I found was in the initial recording stages. I'm not sure if it was just my copy of the album, but in the first few seconds of Track 1 the drums distort. Now you may be thinking that I just have the album playing too loud because I think it's so good. But I tried turning down the volume knob and it still distorted and then went clean. So, that will knock off some points.
Now, usually I would take off some points due to the fact that I can't play this song in the background while I'm working. But this is a special case. Let's put it this way, if there was some gigantic ass in the middle of Las Vegas (and I'm sure there is, but this is a metaphor) these guys strapped on some steel toe boots and booted it as hard as they could and BAM! they were on a magic carpet ride to the mainstream, the carpet being Epitaph. Therefore, I have to crank the volume on my stereo because of this album�s most bodacious tracks.
Average Fan Rating: 4.73

Someone turned the clock back last night as I took a trip back to the days when STYX was one of my favorite bands. Dennis Deyoung and Band were outstanding in showmanship with quality as close to original as I have ever heard. It seems Dennis' voice has lost nothing over the years and the two lead guitarists performed some awesome solos and vocals. Overall this was my best concert experience since seeing U2 in the early 90's. Last night was truely the best of times. Thank you Dennis
Paradise Theater was my first album I ever purchased. During a very difficult time in my life at the age of 12, with my dad going down with M.S. at the time, I escaped into the music as I laid on my bed, perusing the inside photos and following along to the lyrics. Since then I've experienced the typical stuff -- love, heartache, having kids, stresses of life in general. When DDY broke into Best of Times I couldn't help but cry.
It would be an understatement to say that this man has maintained everything that made him great in the 70s and 80s. Of course his singing may be second to none in the pop/rock genre, but his intelligence, sensitivity, thoughtfulness, humility, humor.... All was on display last night at the Minnesota State Fair.
DDY is Styx. "JY" and Princess Tommy may not want us to think so, but it's true. It's his writing, his arrangements, and his voice.
I've been to more than 50 shows in my life, but this one may rank in the top 5.

Saw Styx several times but first time that I saw Dennis DeYoung solo. The show was so fantastic. His voice is amazing and it was great to see how down-to-earth he is and how personable he was with the audience. Also it was nice to see that his wife of 37 years is one of his back-up singers. I would love to see his concert again!
Saw him at Humphrey's in San Diego last summer with my sister. Have seen Styx several times all without Dennis Deyoung. He is quite funny, interacts and jokes with the audience. He also talks about most songs giving you little bits of info about when he wrote them, etc. His voice is still great, I just wish he had more tour dates so my husband could join me next time.

There were top ten times in qualifying in Texas for Felipe Massa, Nico Hulkenberg, Fernando Alonso and Pastor Maldonado...
Felipe Massa: "This qualifying was pretty much a lottery: the lucky number is always the last one! With this type of tyre on Massa this asphalt one struggles to get the tyres up to temperature and one has to lap continuously before being able to set a good time. IN Q2, we managed it, but in Q3 things did not go as well: it's never easy to do the perfect lap with so little grip. It will definitely not be an easy race for us, given the grid positions of our main rivals, but we must stay focused because all the same, tomorrow will be hard for everyone. We will have to do our utmost and then we will see how it goes. Starting from the dirty side of the track is definitely not helpful: it's the first time we're not happy about gaining a grid position!"
Fernando Alonso: "We never managed to put together the best lap, which on these tyres and with these track conditions is always the last one you do. We knew it would be a complicated weekend but clearly today we were too slow and we will start from too far back. Having said that, the accounts are always done at the end of the race: also in Abu Dhabi we were slower than our main rivals and then we got back three points in the classification. Our aim remains unchanged and it's still possible: on Sunday all sorts of things can happen. Reliability, strategy - it will be important to work out when is the best time to pit because here, the cold tyres can be slower by several seconds - and team work will be as usual important. The updates? We tried to find the best possible combination between all the parts we had available, as it's not always the case that the latest part is the best choice, especially when you are at a brand new track. We will push to the limit, as we have done since the start of the year at every race weekend."
Force India:
Nico Hulkenberg: "I'm happy to get another top ten result and it's been a good effort by the whole team, especially given where we were yesterday evening. My lap in Q3 was not too bad, but I was a little compromised by a Williams in the last couple of corners, so maybe there was a little bit more to come. Generally I'm quite happy and confident we can race strongly because our long-run pace looked competitive yesterday. There are lots of unknowns about tomorrow because there is no data from the past to help us, but we're in good shape and I'm really enjoying driving at this new track."
Paul di Resta: "It has been a difficult weekend so far and I'm still struggling to get the tyres working. I have quite a smooth driving style so maybe that's why I haven't been able to switch them on as well as Nico, who has a more aggressive approach. The good news is that P13 is on the cleaner side of the grid so that should help me maximise the start. It's a long race but I'm not really sure what to expect tomorrow. The car is not quite where I want it to be so I just need to make the best of it and hope we can use the strategy to help us move forward."
Pastor Maldonado: "The performance wasn't there yesterday so today was much better for us. Unfortunately in Q3 the grip wasn't there, as it was difficult to get the tyres working correctly. It's important we are in the top ten for tomorrow though. We have a good car so we are looking to get more points tomorrow in what looks set to be a good race. All around the track are Venezuelan flags and there is a lot of support here for me as it's so close to my home, so hopefully that will help give me an extra boost tomorrow!"
Bruno Senna: "Unfortunately I made a small mistake on my best lap in Q2, running a bit wide on Turn 19 and then having dirty tyres which cost me about half a second and a place in Q3 for sure. It's frustrating but we are able to score good points from where we are. We have a good car and we looked competitive in our race simulation in practice yesterday, so I'm really looking forward to the race. It's a track we are all attacking and it's important to keep pushing. "
Toro Rosso:
Jean-Eric Vergne: "I think the team has worked well so far this weekend to produce a car that seems a bit more competitive than in the past few races. It doesn't mean much that I beat my team-mate today, because he had some difficulties in the first session. Maybe I could have got a bit more out of the car this afternoon, perhaps found a couple of tenths. After going over the kerbs and damaging the suspension this morning, I obviously lost some track time and without that, I might have had a better understanding of the tyres. However, as I said before, the car feels good, there are plenty of overtaking opportunities here so my plan tomorrow is to go hunting for some more points."
Daniel Ricciardo: "That was a difficult and frustrating session for me. We knew it would take a long time for the tyres to come in, especially as the asphalt is still so slippery. We never really got them to work properly as I got stuck in traffic in the early part and then came the yellow flags when I was about to try for my last two laps. It meant I never got a clean run. This is one of my worst qualifying performances of the season, the first time I haven't made it to Q2 for seven races, so I just want to put it behind me now and aim to have a better Sunday, which should be entirely within our capabilities."

Nice work, shushikiary.
The factor 1.874945 in the formula is the ratio of the avoidence caps. 88.129021 / 47.18499 = 1.874945. You could rearrange your formula a little and would find that parry is better (i.e. 1% parry suffers less diminishing returns than 1% dodge) if Ad/Cd > Ap/Cp.
These are just your findings, but maybe the relation of dodge and parry is more clear.

1924: The Yankees take a pair from the White Sox,
winning the opener' 8-3 behind Joe Bush. They score 10 runs in the first
inning in the nitecap' then hang on for a 12-10 win. After the Yanks bat
around' Babe Ruth greets reliever Mike Cvengros with a 3-run homer' his 31st.
1922: The Yanks move back into first when Sad Sam Jones beats Ray Kolp 7-3. Kolp lasts just 2 innings before Bill Bayne takes over for the final 7 and allows 2 runs. Ken Williams hits his 23rd but Whitey Witt counters with a 3-run homer.
1890: Elmer Miller, the first Yankee ever to bat in a World Series game (as the leadoff man for Miller Huggins in the 1921 fall classic), is born.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

1-18oz. pkg
oreo cookies (regular size, 3 rows of cookies)
1-8oz. pkg
cream cheese-block
4 oz
white chocolate almond bark
Directions Step-By-Step
1Add oreos to food processor and blend until fine.
2Add cream cheese to oreo crumbs and blend until dough-like.
3Chill mixture for 15 minutes then roll into bite-size balls. Chill balls for 15 minutes.
4Melt almond bark in microwave according to package directions. Dip chilled oreo balls in melted chocolate using fork so chocolate can "drip off". Set covered cookie balls onto waxed paper and let set aprox. 30 minutes. If using sprinkles or decorative sugars do so before chocolate sets. I usually do a dozen at a time sprinkling after each dozen.

what is your secret to making the bark so smooth looking? These are fun to make and taste good but I am having trouble with the bard
Shannon Smith Shannon - Dec 22, 2009
I'm sorry to say I don't really have a secret. I just put the bark in a glass bowl and melt for 30 seconds then stir, then melt another 30 seconds stir and so on until it is completely melted. I have never had trouble with clumping at all. I think the bark melts smoother than chocolate chips and there is no need to use a double boiler. Good luck!
Dan Hammond Hambone - Dec 22, 2009
Wow...I just tried your oreo balls and they are amazing!!!! You dropped them off at the office and if I'm not careful I will eat them all!!! I just shared the recipe with my wife and have my fingers crossed she will make them...

Terminology note
15.04.2009 / 14:38
The name Taiwan.
The name Taiwan is perceived as a geographical identification. The island of Taiwan is governed by an administration acting under the name of the Republic of China (ROC), which considers itself to be a representative of a sovereign state. The People's Republic of China (PRC) considers Taiwan to be an inseparable part of its territory on the level of a province. The former Czechoslovakia established diplomatic relations with the Republic of China in December 1930. Following the proclamation of the People's Republic of China (1 October 1949), the Czechoslovak Government recognized the People's Republic of China on 4 October 1949 and at the same time abolished diplomatic relations with the Government of the National Kuomingtang Party representing the Republic of China. The Government of the Czech Republic maintains diplomatic relations with the Government of the People's Republic of China.

Between the lemon juice base, grape alcohol, and some fragrant plant oils, this is hardly a rejuvenating experience for skin. It can cause irritation, and the soothing plant extracts that Juice Beauty included aren't enough to counter that. This mask is not recommended; if you want a natural mask for dry skin, mix some olive oil, honey, chamomile tea, aloe, and sunflower oil and apply that to your skin. It's messy and time-consuming to make, but at least you won't be putting your skin at risk for irritation.
Every organic drop of Juice Beauty Facial Rejuvenating Mask feeds your skin powerful antioxidants, polyphenols, essential vitamins, vital phytonutrients and age-defying fruit acids. Antioxidant-rich organic apple, lemon and grape juices are blended with moisturizing organic sunflower and olive oil, refining organic raw cane sugar and honey and rejuvenating organic geranium and carrot seed for an organic, healthy complexion.
Pyrus Malus (Apple) Juice, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Juice, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Juice and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Grape Alcohol Denatured, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Glycerin, Xanthan Gum, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane), Honey (Mel), Botanical Extracts Of Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit, Calendula Officinalis Flower, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Seed, Geranium Maculatum and Helichrysum Stoechas (Everlasting) In Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Alginic Acid
As you may have gathered from this line's name, fruit and vegetable juices are their point of difference. Before we discuss why that's not necessarily a good thing for your skin, we want to provide a little background information on the company.
The women behind this California-based brand have years of experience dealing with cosmetic formulations and various wellness-oriented companies. As the story goes, they felt the cosmetic marketplace was missing a line of products that contained organic ingredients, at least inasmuch as it was possible to create skin-care items that capitalize on the enduring trend for all things natural. Unlike other brands touting the organic label, Juice Beauty decided not to use organic ingredients diluted by water (which, by their reasoning would lower the total actual organic content even though water itself can be considered organic), but instead devised an organic juice blend. This blend (which includes various fruit and vegetable juices) serves as the base for every product they sell. Although it may seem intriguing that they're using juice instead of water, it's important to point out that any fruit or vegetable juice contains a preponderance of...water. For example, juice from fresh oranges, organic or not, can contain up to 85% water, while grape juice is typically 80% water. So much for juice being the solution to diluted ingredients; it's already diluted, naturally!
However, what's even more critical for you to know is that some of the juices Juice Beauty chose can be far too irritating to apply to your skin on a daily basis. The biggest offenders along this line are lemon and orange juices, both of which are extremely acidic and, as such capable of causing irritation. Plus, applying lemon juice to your skin can cause a phototoxic reaction when skin is exposed to sunlight (Sources: Photodermatology, Photoimmunology, and Photomedicine, December 2005, pages 318–321; and www.naturaldatabase.com).
One of the naturally occurring chemicals in lemon juice is the fragrance chemical limonene. Pharmaceutical research has shown that limonene applied to skin enhances penetration of other ingredients, which is not good news if you're using a product that contains not only lemon juice but also other irritants as well (Sources: Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, April 2008, pages 656–661; Journal of Occupational Health, May 2006, pages 480–486; and Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, November 2006, pages 123–126 and pages 369–385). If you've ever gotten orange or lemon juice on a minor cut (even a minor cuticle nick) you know how much it stings, and that's really bad for skin! Although it's true that citrus juices do have antioxidant and even anti-inflammatory actions, the effects of their irritating compounds likely surpasses the effects from the beneficial compounds; not to mention that there are plenty of other ingredients (natural and synthetic) that have potent antioxidant properties without any potential for irritation.
In addition to the problematic natural ingredients, Juice Beauty uses raw sugarcane as a natural form of glycolic acid and willow bark as a natural stand-in for salicylic acid. Although there is an association (albeit distant) to be made for both, the fact is that neither of these natural ingredients on their own is an adequate stand-in for authentic (and, yes, synthetic) glycolic or salicylic acids. We wouldn't expect these natural substitutes to exfoliate skin and reduce blemishes any more than we would expect to be able to print a legible novel on tree bark. In fact, some of the Juice Beauty products contain actual glycolic acid rather than a natural-sounding derivative.
Several Juice Beauty products contain an impressive roster of state-of-the-art ingredients, including several antioxidants, peptides, and even some soothing, non-fragrant plant components. Ironically, removing this line's namesake ingredients (namely the juices) from their products would have made the products a much better choice!
Turning to the organic claims, we applaud the company for acknowledging the lack of regulations on the term "organic" as it applies to cosmetics. They are also refreshingly forthcoming about what the current standards stipulate, and offer all the necessary proof that the organic ingredients they've chosen are from USDA-certified organic farms. Juice Beauty simply states that they offer consumers a "meaningful percentage of organic ingredients." Based on the ingredient lists for their products, it's easy to see that juices and other natural ingredients comprise the bulk of each formula.
Consumers looking for skin-care products with organic ingredients can consider some of the options from Juice Beauty—there are a handful of effective, non-irritating products in this line. Yet, as we stated before, although organic is a strong pull for consumers, it does not always (actually, in most instances it absolutely does not) translate into better or safer cosmetics. Considering the range of ingredients Juice Beauty uses: most of them are indeed natural and certified organic—regardless of that certification, however, a natural ingredient that's irritating for skin is still a problem. Being passionate about organic products and an organic lifestyle need not involve your skin taking a turn for the worse via application of potentially damaging ingredients (particularly camphor, designated/disguised as Ho Wood in many Juice Beauty products), and camphor is a strong skin irritant (Sources: British Journal of Dermatology, November 2000, pages 923–929; and Clinical Toxicology, December 1981, pages 1485–1498).

The holiday season is about more than just presents and gift giving. It's a message many try to convey this time of year, including one Elmira school teacher in particular. As our Katie Husband tells us, her first grade class is demonstrating how to give the gift of holiday cheer without the wrapping paper and bows.
ELMIRA, N.Y. -- Bringing joy, peace, love and hope is part of a special lesson these first graders from Holy Family Elementary School in Elmira have been learning.
"Throughout the season we have been studying advent, talking about advent, we light the candles each week," said Charlotte Wirth, Holy Family Elementary School teacher.
To demonstrate the lesson they wanted to spread holiday joy at the Strawberry Mansion Society which holds a social adult day program for the disabled.
"And we said let's partner with them and we brought the kids over to spread a little bit of peace and joy and love of the season," said Wirth.
"Oh, I love these kids when they came here. They was just singing songs that I didn't even know. I'm glad because it was entertaining to me," said Velda Morris, Strawberry Mansion Society client.
"It makes you feel like Christmas is a-coming," said Tara Martin, Strawberry Mansion Society client.
The clients here at the Strawberry Mansion Society were overjoyed when the two dozen little strangers came in to entertain them. "It made me feel good, it made me feel more holiday-ish, you know. Lift my spirits up better," said Morris.
"Everybody's enjoying themselves, I tend to fit in. So, I'm also enjoying it," said Martin.
Spreading the real meaning of Christmas is the mission of Wirth's lesson.
"To teach the students that there's more about the season it's not just getting presents themselves and Santa, I know it's a big thing for them and it should be but there are others out there that they can help and that's what we're all about," said Wirth.
Now that the caroling and decorating have been done, Strawberry Mansion seems to be in better holiday spirits.

Just give us a to-do list so we know how to become more like Jesus. Wouldn't that make things easier? But how does one boil down the transformational process (becoming more like Jesus) to a simple to-do list?
Part of that process allows for the awesome and mysterious ways God chooses to use as He transforms our values, priorities, and relationships, but there are also things we can each do as we participate in that process.
There is no one prescription for spiritual growth because everybody's different, but there are some basic areas to consider. It is our desire that each person intentionally participates with God and others in this transforming process. We invite you to consider what's offered at Calvary Church.
Our vision at Calvary Church is to be a multigenerational community known for changed lives and caring relationships. That's not just a vision for adults but for students as well.
At Calvary Church, we believe God has created us to be relational. We need each other! For some, building relationships comes easily, for others, not so much. We also know that different settings can enhance how relationships are formed. We invite you to consider the different options and we hope one of them fits you!
Men need friendships with other men for encouragement, recreation and the implementation of biblical principles. In addition to what's listed here, search sports and recreation as well.
Programs and activities within Women's Ministries are designed for women of all ages to promote spiritual growth and friendships in a climate of acceptance and encouragement. To assist women in this pursuit, Calvary offers these ministries.
For more information about any of these areas, please contact Denise at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Are you between 18–35 and looking to get plugged in? No matter your stage in life, we've got opportunities for you to get connected!
At Calvary Church, Home Field is our ministry focused on marriage and family. Whether you're considering marriage, getting married, having a baby, investing in your marriage, raising children or becoming a grandparent, workshops are offered throughout the year to be of help in your journey.
Calvary Church is active in meeting people's needs – whether that's for individuals, groups or businesses. Consider the different opportunities Calvary Church provides and let us know if we can be of service to you.
Calvary Church seeks to be involved not only to our local community but to the larger region as well.
Continuing what Jesus started includes not only being involved with our local and regional communities but also with those around the globe. That involvement includes supporting some who serve in full-time ministry as well as those who go on short-term missions trips.
At Calvary Church we recognize that needs come in all different packages. In addition to our prayer team and counseling center, we strive to offer physical support for your unique needs. To the left, you'll find more information on the ways we can help. We also invite you to contact us if you have a physical or financial need we can help you to meet.
Please contact Debbie at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 215.723.0963 ext 139 for more information. If you are an individual in crisis, we invite you to call our crisis hotline at 215.723.0963 and press 8 when prompted.

Contains a comprehensive collection of scholarship focused on the lives and events which have shaped African American and African history and culture. Features over 7,500 articles from Oxford's reference works, approximately 100 primary sources with specially written commentaries, over 1,000 images, over 100 maps, over 200 charts and tables, timelines to guide researchers through the history of African Americans and over 6,000 biographies.
When the administration of the Western College for Women – now a part of Miami University – opened its campus to civil rights activists in 1964, the institution followed its long tradition of independence and innovation. An estimated 700 young, idealistic college students from across the north arrived in Oxford, Ohio for voter registration training before leaving to serve in Mississippi to register African-Americans to vote and assist with local community projects, like Freedom schools and the building of community centers.
Today, the story of Freedom Summer has the power to evoke important questions about American identity, public life, engagement, and commitment. This exhibit will focus on local resident Roland Duerksen and former student volunteers Carole Colca and Mark Levy. They have left the legacy of their work in the Western College Memorial Archives. This exhibit, which includes photographs, letters, audio recordings, and an interactive map of Mississippi, will serve as a narrative of their dedication to civil rights and social justice.

Kathie Lee Gifford, Marlo Thomas And The Best Seller Brigade
The joint was jumping when I arrived for my weekly lunch at Michael's today. Between the bestselling authors, media mavens, and the social swans of the Upper East Side, there was a real buzz in the room — or was it just all that pesky pollen from the azaleas on every table?
I was joined today by jewelry designer and all around renaissance woman Carol Brodie. I've known Carol since her days at Harry Winston when she managed to get every A-lister you could possibly name to show up at the Academy Awards dripping in the iconic house's diamonds. In 2009, Carol launched her own fine jewelry collection, Rarities, on HSN and has become the shopping network's number one resource for fine gems. With prices ranging from $59.90 up to $10,000 for one of a kind pieces, that's a lot of bling! It's amazing to learn just how much people pony up sitting at home watching in their pajamas. She's also launching a collection of watches next month.
Carol has become something of an overnight success in the digital world, since her mantra is "click and order" over "bricks and mortar." As a completely digital brand, she has garnered plenty of attention for her social media prowess and recently spoke at the Fashion 140 conference at Lincoln Center along with fellow Twitter fanatics Robert Verdi and Elle's Joe Zee. Besides the "priceless" exposure she gets on HSN (her next appearance is scheduled for May 20, when the network celebrates 'Brazilian Day'), Carol stays in constant contact with her customers through Facebook and tweets up to the minute on virtually everything she is doing, wearing and selling. (She, of course, tweeted our lunch.)
"Social media is the 'Main Street' of my brand," she told me. "I want to talk directly to my customers, and they want to talk directly to me." Carol is also planning to do a lot more talking with an upcoming book and television show in development ("a cross between Antique Roadshow and Pawn Brokers") that she's working on with a former Oprah producer. She kind of makes you feel guilty about all those hours spent watching Bravo instead of designing your website, doesn't she?
Here's the rundown on today's crowd:
1. Sam Haskell, author (Promises I Made My Mother) and former head of William Morris' worldwide television division, with his wife and daughter — both named Mary. The group was joined by Kathie Lee Gifford, who I grabbed for a brief chat. When I asked how her Mother's Day was, she said, "It will be better tonight — Cody is coming home from college!"
2. Former HarperCollins head Jane Friedman, now CEO and co-founder of Open Road with uber ad man Richard Kirshenbaum and Jeffrey Sharp, president and co-founder of Open Road.

Suicide bombers hit Afghan police site
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Afghan police say insurgents have attacked one of their compounds in western Kabul, there are at least two explosions and a gun battle has broken out.
Police officer Mirzal Mohammad says at least one insurgent blew himself up at the entrance to traffic police headquarters just before dawn Monday and a number of others wearing suicide vests entered the building.

Meh bitches like any accident, except maybe Sweedes
The Stone Roses: This is why they're fucking headlining
Basically from what I get you lot would've had the big The Stone Roses moment had they not kinda fell when they did. They were about to hit it big over there.
They sold 400K tickets in two summers pretty much in the UK over 6 different dates and this doesn't include 3 festivals shows as well with an approx 80k capacity each.
Brits would cream just at the fact of having The Stone Roses and Blur on a lineup, let alone the day day.
Honestly, people should give their album a listen.
Look at it this way, being a brit, Pheonix mean not a lot to me and other bands that are a bit unrecognized to me which I need to check out.
You say they were about to hit it big but I've never even heard their name before. I won't bother listening to the album though. I'll keep it a surprise for April if I end up at their set.
Im coming, and on my own... for the first time... if i could tag along with any of you would be awseome!
Of course! We need a full description of you. Favourite colour and band :-)
Papi Piratón!
That video is historically incorrect.
So we could watch the match there if we get that far? Result!
Me and my soon to be wife will be at Weekend 1 to finish our honeymoon! Coming all the way from Nottingham.

Korbin, shut the fuck up .
hey it's true, we're not exactly popular in other places. We're pretty rude travelers.
That's a load of shit from someone who has obviously never travelled. Do you know which national youth has the absolute worst traveling reputation? Oh the irony.

Two guys coming from Scotland for weekend one. Going to New York first for a couple of days then spending Wednesday and Thursday night in Palm Springs if anyone fancies a few pints before? Going to LA after then Vegas so we're making the most of it. Can't wait for the festival though, definitely the highlight of our trip.

The SLK is famous for its roof – the automatic retractable hardtop transforms it from coupe to roadster in 30 seconds. While the SLK is a two-seat open-air automobile, it's not a performance or handling maniac like some of its roadster competitors. But SLK moves in that direction for 1999 with the new availability of five-speed manual transmission and optional AMG-designed Sport Package.
In addition to cosmetic enhancements (side sills, and new front and rear facias), the Sport Package adds handling muscle via a bigger version of its staggered wheel and tire set up (225/45ZR17 front, 245/40ZR17 rear). Motivation remains the duty of supercharged 2.3-litre "four" which cranks out 185 hp, and 200 lb. ft. of torque anywhere between 2,500 and 4,800 rpm. Also carried over is the driver-adaptive 5-speed automatic.

I haven't used a large real tree for a long time. This is just right so I can have a tree but it doesn't take up a lot of space and I didn't have to struggle with strings of lights or putting it up after the holidays. Perfect for my age and abilities.

Loved these little trees, I purchased two of them for elderly people who otherwise would not have a tree. They fit perfectly into small spaces and looked so festive when all the lights were on. the only thing that I found was one of the trees, some of the ornaments had been chewed, like a mouse had gotten into the box or something. I took off the birds that were damaged and it still looked beautiful. Not sure where that happened, it could have been my yard.
My dad lives in independent living. He told me that he set the tree on the etagere in his window then walked up the road from his apartment to see if he could see it from there. He said it was beautiful.
I got the idea from a competitor but really didn't like any of their options. Then I thought of you. You had a wonderful selection. It was the perfect gift!
- Tree Was Crooked
Best Uses
I sent to my aunt in a nursing home and was informed by my cousin that it arrived very well packed and at my request, was sent an email pic of the tree and noticed how tilted it was even after my cousin propped it. Outside of that, the tree was everything I expected. I was disappointed that I never received an email confirmation from the shipper of the order delivery date. I had even called to make sure they had my correct email.

The tree was cute but the ornaments were poorly made. They gave a cheap look to the tree. Three birds and three birdhouses also were not enough ornaments to make the tree look like it was fully decorated. We had to add more ornaments and tinsel to give it a nice look. I have gotten Christmas trees here in the past and was sorely disappointed in the appearance this year.

Any from our Tenampa ceramic stoneware Mexican handcrafted tile collection can be the perfect complement to decorate a bathroom shower wall, a kitchen backsplash, a fireplace, a stairway, an exterior kitchen countertop, or any other project in a Southwest style.
Our Tenampa Stoneware Mexican handcrafted tile draws its inspiration from nature and the Mexican Northwest and the American Southwest. The tiles are made from a blend of fine-grain clays and other minerals to produce a very dense body, which makes them highly resistant to moisture, staining, and wear. The surface is glazed and painted by hand with color pigments. The tiles are fired in kilns making the glaze permanently fused to the body (bisque) to form a finish product. Once the process to create the tiles is complete the tiles become alive and vibrant. They have a rustic, warm, and timeless appeal.
You can use these tiles to create a custom design that blends perfectly with your Southwest style interior design. The colors found in this tile collection are the following: soothing sand color, brown, and cactus green. Some have shots of bright yellow, red, turquoise, and blue.
|Due to handmade nature, tiles may vary by up to 1/4 in. Sizes are nominal, meaning that sizes vary from the actual.
|Color, Size and Design Variation
|Slight variations are expected for all Tenampa Tiles. For instance, size, color and design are all likely to vary due to the hand made process. PLEASE NOTE: shades of color are seen differently on computer monitors and therefore customers should request a sample before making a final selection or purchase. Lot variation in size and color may be present from shipment to shipment. There is no guarantee that tiles ordered as add-ons will match those from the original orders.
|Tiles per Square Foot
** The following is an estimate number of tiles you will need per square foot. The amount of tiles needed per square foot varies according to tile size and shape. This is a courtesy estimate and we recommend to double check measurements and tile quantities with your tile expert installer as you may need additional pieces to account for cuts and breakage.
|Blend of fine-grain, May be slightly concave or not perfectly flat.
|Glazed natural sand.
|Tile Thickness
|3/8 in. thickness. Larger and smaller tiles may vary in thickness accordingly.
|Suitable for all interiors of residential and commercial wall applications. Light-use flooring as accents or as a border to define an area. Avoid high moist areas in all matte tiles. If used in moist areas, apply a penetrating sealer which forms an invisible barrier that is resistant to moisture and stains while allowing vapor to escape. Outdoor use is temperate climate only. Tenampa ceramic tiles are NOT frost proof.
|Recommended Grout Type and Width
|1/4 in. grout line suggested. Use sanded grout when doing grout lines of 1/4 in. or more; and non-sanded grout when less than 1/4 in. We recommend to seal tile before grouting and to seal grout after installation. For further advice, contact your professional tile installer.
|Installation Recommendations
|Lay out material prior to installation to properly blend and balance color. Due to size variation, we recommend to shuffle thru several boxes before installation. The application of a penetrating sealer is recommended in accordance with the sealer manufacturer's instructions to further enhance the durability of the tile.
