People complain about Sundance now that it's become such a mainstream, Hollywood event. It's just about partying, people say. It's no longer about celebrating independent film, people say. These gift bags are too heavy, they make my arms sore, people say. Have you seen Kim Zolciak, I heard she's dating Joe Francis now, people say. All of these complaints are fair. Those gift bags, I am told, can be very heavy. But the real problem with Sundance isn't its obvious embrace of commercialism. We all have to eat! (And some of us have to eat food made out of diamonds, duh!) And the real problem with Sundance isn't the emphasis on partying. We all have to party! The real problem with Sundance is that you get these fames far enough away from Hollywood, but all in the same place, and shit starts to happen that shouldn't. For example, 50 Cent can perform "In Da Club" on stage with Tony Yayo in celebration of Jim Carrey's birthday, and Jim Carrey will dance in between them like he's MC Rove, and everyone will be like "Yay! Sundance!" when they should be like "Hey! Stop that!"
Someone needs to tell Jim Carrey that Yes Man was just a movie and that he can start saying no to things again.

That's difficult footage to watch. Jim Carrey is a doofus.
And what is the deal with that party? It looks like a super sweet sixteen with Jim Carrey as the birthday boy.

"Jim Carrey is a doofus."
Are you sure?
The best part:
This is sponsored by VITAMIN WATER.
That's how you know you've made it, when your birthday parties involve sponsorship from Vitamin Water companies.
I just got a distinct Nazi vibe from that video. I'm not sure why. Maybe it was all the Nazi saluting going on up in there.

Damn Jim, you were on In Living Color, so that "I acted this way because I've never actually encountered black culture before LIVE so the feeling just kinda took me over and I came off as a doofus" excuse just isn't gonna cut it this time.

To be the best relocation manager means constantly improving your company's relocation program and discovering new ways to make it run more efficiently. A good relocation manager ensures that the goals of the program are met and that each and every employee being relocated is personally taken care of. Furthermore, excellent relocation management entails a program based on industry best practices and relocation policies and development which compete with other companies in the industry. To ensure that you are effectively managing relocation for your company, here are some top tips on how to structure your program, how to save time and reduce overhead, and what resources are currently available for managers in the up-and-coming field of corporate relocation.
Take Advantage of Technology
If your relocation program is still using an outdated technology platform which does not keep pace with the world of smartphones and tablets, it's time to embrace 21st century technology. With more and more platforms and systems available, you can save massive amounts of time and improve domestic and international relocation efficiency by automating much of your daily activities. Whether it's your relocation funds management program, HRIS system, payroll and processing platform, or other tasks, make sure technology is working for you and not against you.
Provide a Wide Range of Services
In order to successfully manage all facets of your employees' relocations and to ease the relocation process for them and their families, you want to ensure that your company's relocation program delivers a wide range of high-quality services and products. Industry best practices indicate that the following relocation services are important when managing a mobile workforce:
- Trip preview and coordination
- Travel management
- Needs assessment/cost analysis
- Relocation consultation
- Overseas relocation moving services
- Visa/immigration coordination
- Property management – including home selling, home finding, temporary accommodations, and tenancy management assistance
- Supplier management
- Cross cultural training
- Language training
- Family and spousal transition and support services
- International banking services
- Tax management and reporting
- Relocation expense tracking, processing, reporting, and payment
Relocation Complications
There are bound to be complications when someone is picking up and moving their life overseas or even to another city or state. A good relocation manager expects the unexpected and remains cool, calm, and collected while he/she comes up with a contingency plan. The experts recommend specifically scheduling one or two hours per day which are devoted to dealing with crises and the stressful elements of relocation as they arise. Whether your employee cannot sell his home, whether the amount of goods being shipped exceeds the limit allotted by your corporate relocation policy, whether your employee needs special assistance in relocating their car or their pet, or any other number of scenarios, be prepared to face relocation complications head-on.
Outsourcing Your Operation
Nowadays you can choose between a completely in-house relocation program, outsourcing the entire operation to a relocation services provider, or anything in between. If your company's mobile workforce is growing, chances are you will find yourself with too much to do in too little time. In that case, consider which elements of your current relocation program might be better outsourced to a third party, ultimately saving you time and money.
Network with Mobility Professionals
To stay on top of industry news, developments and trends and stay on top of your game by networking with other mobility professionals, attend events and educational conferences hosted by the Workforce Mobility Association, otherwise known as Worldwide ERC. The membership-based organization, founded in 1964, connects professionals who oversee, manage, or support U.S. domestic and international employee transfer.

Big Brain (in the head):
- fundamentally concerned with balance; this is the tuning component of a feeling (Behan 2011, p. 121).
- Nerve energy in the Big Brain is a kind of static electricity that is then grounded in the little brain and makes the individual feel connected to its surroundings (Behan 2011, p. 123).
- supplies the tuning component to the group dynamic through the neurological circuitry dedicated to balance (Behan 2012, p. 141).
- prefers stasis; it "wants" things to stay the same, in balance (Behan 2011, p. 182).
- the separation brain (Behan 2011, p. 187)
Correction (Shock):
Deep Inner Stress:
Discordant Pathways:
- the energy by which every behavior, both simple and complex, drives a dog. It affects……Emotion is linked to both drive and instinct (Behan, 2009, p. 13).
- energy [in motion]; it [holds] no intention, only the immediacy of attraction (Behan 2011, p. 77).
- always concerned with the physical body or the earth. It arouses the animal's urge to ingest (Behan 2011, p. 129).
- always a positive pull of attraction; there is no such thing as a negative emotion, only instinctive reactions to being overwhelmed and out of balance (Behan 2011, p. 161).
Emotional Center of Gravity:
- constitutes an animal's sense of self, the nucleus of an animal's consciousness (Behan 2011, p. 161)
- it is the exact spot in a dog's body where the dog experiences the world impacting it as the center of its conscious awareness (Behan 2011, p. 161).
Emotional Conductivity:
- what one sees on the outside reflects what one feels on the inside. Because what one feels on the inside has powerful physical effects, an emotional thermodynamics… (Behan 2011, p. 115)
- the brain in the deep gut is the site for the experience of emotional grounding, which serves the principle of emotional conductivity (Behan 2011, p. 117).
- When animals interact, what's going on within their bodies induces them to focus on either the other being's eyes or its body (its predatory or its preyful aspects). This profoundly influences how they feel, and thus how they respond to each other. If they go by the little brain in the gut, then they will act in tandem, so that one will recapitulate the principle of emotional conductivity in the other, and social behavior will inevitably result (Behan 2011, p. 117).
- rhythmic waves are pleasing, discordant waves are unsettling (Behan 2011, p. 122).
- Using the principle of emotional conductivity, the first thing a dog assays in any situation is its owner's deep-seated emotional process (Behan 2011, p. 224).
- in animal behavior, the urge to ingest, is what attracted each and every feeling (Behan, 2011, p. 78).
p 30
Group (Network) Consciousness:
Harmonic Pathways:
- the group energy by which the dog flows with both the environment and other group members, including humans. Social behaviors, such as playing, hunting, breeding, etc., are examples of this. In training, it allows dogs to learn to function smoothly in a group and for the good of the group. Harmonic pathways are the way dogs learn HOW TO DO things. Being in true harmony with your dog allows him/her to want to work for and with you (Behan, 2009, p. 7-8).
Heart Brain:
- the network brain (Behan 2011, p. 187)
- If a deep bark resonates from the very pit of its stomach, its entire body flexing from the sit position as if the bark were riding out of its body on a wave, then it is referencing its heart; because its two brains are completely reconciled, it has projected its emotional center of gravity into your heart and is feeling that by looking into your eyes. It is moving energy through the one emotional body it now perceives itself to be entangled with (Behan 2011, p. 188).
Little Brain (in the gut):
- enteric nervous system, also known as the emotional brain (Behan 2011, p. 116).
- [also known as the] social brain (Behan 2011, p. 117)
- endowed with both sensory and motor neurons; this region contains half the body's neurons and has a full range of neurotransmitters, hormones, and opiate receptor sites. According to Dr. Jill Ammon-Wexler, a pioneering brain researcher, "Your 'gut-brain' is also able to learn, remember, and produce emotion-based feelings." (Behan 2011, p. 116)
- develops from the same embryonic tissue as the brain in the head, and the two are connected via the massive vagus nerve (Behan 2011, p. 116).
- fundamentally concerned with ingestion; this is the feedback component of a feeling (Behan 2011, p. 121).
- Both animals in an interaction have to choose to tune in to their little brain, so that they can go back and forth from projecting to absorbing energy (Behan 2011, p. 164).
- tries to digest the sensations [of the Big brain] (Behan 2011, p. 177).
- craves constant input; it "wants" things to be in flux and motion. It requires something to digest; otherwise, it is churning (Behan 2011, p. 182).
- If your dog sits, licks its lips, or breaks the intensity of its gaze with a softening of expression, then it is referencing the little brain in its gut (Behan 2011, p. 187-188).
- when the charge isn't being passed around (Behan 2011, p. xx)
- adding more unresolved emotion to [the dog's] emotional battery (Behan 2011, p. 136)
- the animal's energy only [builds] up and then [boils] over….venting of an internal pressure (Behan 2011, p. 138).
Pack Instincts:
– not to be mistaken with mainstream notions of pack hierarchies (which rarely exist, if at all, in the wild), pack instincts refer to survival mechanisms often described as defensive, submissive, and dominance behaviors (Behan, 2009, p. 1).
- a Big Brain package of reflexes, highly constrained and inhibited caricatures of the group way of being (Behan 2011, p. 130).
Predatory Aspect:
- In the animal mind, the pole of highest concentration (Behan 2011, p. 116)
- When animals interact…the eyes [adopt the predatory aspect] (Behan 2011, p. 117)
- When a dog feels whole, then even the negative or predatory aspect can be perceived as positive because it's now being apprehended as "access-to-the-positive." (Behan 2011, p. 118) (emphasis added)
- [when two animals interact] one individual will absorb emotion (the prey trait) and the other will project emotion (the predator trait) (Behan 2011, p. 166)
Preyful Aspect:
- [In the animal mind] the corresponding pole [to the predatory aspect] of lowest concentration (Behan 2011, p. 116)
- When animals interact…the body [adopts the preyful aspect] (Behan 2011, p. 117)
- a dog can feel a whole sense of its body only if its insides are functioning smoothly, and to do this, the dog must be perceiving something preyful or positive in its surroundings (Behan 2011, p. 118). (emphasis added)
- [when two animals interact] one individual will absorb emotion (the prey trait) and the other will project emotion (the predator trait) (Behan 2011, p. 166)
Prey Drive/instinct:
- how the dog perceives the rhythm of the world…….the primary means of communication between dog and owner (Behan, 2009, p.13- ).
Prey Threshold:
- Through evolution, a breed of dog attunes itself to the specific fight-or-flight frequency of the prey animal (Behan, 2011 p. 123)
Steady State:
Unresolved Emotion:
- a more complex elaboration of the principle of emotional conductivity (Behan 2011, p. 132).

Wedding designer to the likes of Usher, Toni Braxton and Martin Lawrence, Diann Valentine lets us in on the ins and outs of creating a stunning event.
Watch our exclusive video interview with Diann! >
A muse can come in many forms, whether it be a person ("I've often paid homage to Tom Ford for his cool and modern take on sexy," Valentine says) or something as seemingly simple as a monarch butterfly, which she once used to create a custom mural. Valentine recommends both finding a muse for yourself and allowing your wedding designer to share his or her muses with you. "This will be telling in determining their design sensibility and whether or not they will be the right fit for bringing your love story to life," she says.
Your venue speaks volumes to the tone of your wedding. Where do you envision celebrating? A historic ballroom? A museum? Your family's backyard? Valentine says, "Every space has a spirit, a voice." She even reminds us of the famous quote from German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe: "Architecture is frozen music." Her best advice is to simply listen. Whether scouting a church, a private estate or a public building, she says to take in the walls, doorways, moldings, light fixtures -- all of it. Choose your space based on the environment you want to create, and plan your décor accordingly. "I never fight the architecture, whether art nouveau or rococo. I never work against the aura of a space."
Several factors play a part in hiring your vendors -- availability and price sometimes being the trickiest. But when it comes to selecting your photographer, don't settle for anything less than the best. You are entrusting them to document your wedding, after all. Do plenty of research and choose a photographer that has a style and a proven portfolio that aligns perfectly with your aesthetic. "Just like with your man, when the right one comes along, you'll know the minute you see his or her work," Valentine says. "Carefully select the artist that will capture your story and ultimately create a family heirloom your grandchildren will one day enjoy."
One area in particular Valentine suggests reimagining is the bridal bouquet. "I love flowers but can't quite grasp the wedding tradition that stipulates that you carry a bouquet that often blocks the most intricate detailing on your wedding gown," she says. For one bride, Valentine created a long cascade of orchids that hung to her side, allowing the focus to remain on her light-pink trumpet gown.
If you've ever been in a bridal party, you know the bridesmaid drill. You drop a ton of time, love and cash to make your BFF's wedding absolutely perfect. And you probably also know what's it's like to feel a little underappreciated through it all. "As happy as they are for their girl, bridesmaids always seem to get the least amount of consideration during the wedding," Valentine says. Remember to put yourself in their position and show them a little love, even if it just means easing up on the scheduling demands. "Now everyone knows (or if you don't know, you do now) that black girls' hair experience can take all day, but there is no need to make them wait for hours on end." Respect the time and effort your friends are putting into your day, and think up some fun surprises (ahem, mimosas!) to show your gratitude.
-- Susan Waits

PPS's Kathy Madden and Meg Walker led the group around the site, and conducted a Placemaking workshop to illicit the community's vision of what the new park in Oviedo, FL, will be.
Hello!Very nice, beautiful and interesting site!Respect you! This is my site: [url=http://phenterminewithoutprescription.4.pl]buy phentermine without prescription[/url]
Oviedo on the Park
I have seen maps of the proposed new Oviedo on the park. Progress IS being made from earlier maps that I have. BUT… I would like to see more restaraunts circling the lake – facing the lake, with outside dining. I think this would be an added attraction that will bring outside dollars to Oviedo. As you know, we do not have any real good dining locations in Oviedo and you have a perfect opportunity to add quality restaraunts, in an ideal setting, that will put Oviedo on the map.
I am a professional, living in Oviedo, working for Siemens. Many of us would love to have some local, classier areas for happy hours or dining – from a professional standpoint. Froggers doesn't cut it. Many of my colleagues and friends have to travel outside of Oviedo & Seminole County, to Waterford Lakes or University BLVD. for our only close options. It would be nice to have these types of restaraunts / bars, in our own back yard.
I would also suggest to have public bike racks in the restaraunt areas, which will also attract bikers, using the Oviedo Trail to stop and have lunch or drinks, as they explore the trail. That is if the trail still goes around the lake. My wife and I were going to stop at the Townhouse a few weeks ago, on a Saturday afternoon, but we couldn't lock up our bikes, so we just went home.
Good luck with the endevor and I will be watching your progress !!!
I too agree with the previous comment that to have a few restaurants (Lake Eola, Park Ave. style) would be a wonderful addition. However, let's keep in mind the very DRAW to Oviedo is that it is a family oriented escape from Orlando! If we make the new downtown too "designer" (for lack of a better description)trendy, we will lose that wonderful quiet, low crime, small town, community feeling. The millions that presently frequent Waterford Lakes and UCF will be piling over in droves creating just another traffic jam, ruining the atmosphere! Please ponder this! If that is the scene we are looking for, we can just drive a short 10 minutes to get it without planting it in the middle of Oviedo! I think the addition of UCF's medical school to this park area is an awful mistake. Please don't move Orlando to the wonderful Oviedo! If you want college atmospheres, University Blvd. is 5 minutes away! We need to keep Oviedo with the quiet charm that it presently has!
I agree with the above comments on adding more attractive restaurants. I would like to see more upscale restaurants around the lake. The upscale restaurants would most likely attract more professional people and not the college crowd. Let's avoid the fast-food environments and stick to something classier. Let's distinguish Oviedo from the unattractive and congested Waterford Lakes scene.
Amazing write-up! This could aid plenty of people find out more about this particular issue. Are you keen to integrate video clips coupled with these? It would absolutely help out. Your conclusion was spot on and thanks to you; I probably won't have to describe everything to my pals. I can simply direct them here!

No matter where you look on the field, it seems number 87 is always out there.
Photo Gallery: 8/28 Practice | More Photos
Whether it's in the slot, out wide, returning kicks or fielding punts,
"Micheal has shown what we hoped for when we brought him in," said head coach Norv Turner. "He's a versatile player. He can play in all of the kicking game scenarios, and we can put him out at wide receiver and in the slot. Obviously he's been very active in the preseason so we like what we've seen from him."
The 5-foot-11, 210-pound receiver entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the Arizona Cardinals in 2006, and after a brief stint with the San Francisco 49ers, most recently spent the last three seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. For his career, he has 23 receptions for 294 yards and two touchdowns, but most of his damage has come on special teams. Spurlock has returned 41 punts for an 8.1 yards-per-return average and one touchdown while also returning 73 kickoffs for an average of 25.1 yards and two scores.
Clearly, Spurlock is a versatile player, and he stressed that aspect of his game when asked about what he brings to the Chargers.
"I'm just willing to go out there and do whatever it takes wherever they can use me," he said. "I'll go out and play special teams, and when it comes to receiving I pretty much know all the positions. So however they want to use me, I'm going to go out there and make sure I can help them any way I can."
When it comes to being a receiver, Spurlock feels confident he can back up each position whether it is out wide or in the slot, and explained how he has learned a lot from the current crop of pass catchers.
"I love the group that we have," he said with a smile. "I mean, you've got great players like
One player in particular who appreciates what Spurlock brings to the table is his quarterback,
"Spurlock is a veteran," he said. "He's been on a couple of teams and he's one of those guys that can kind of do a little bit of everything. We've thrown him around in just about every position on the field. He's a super sharp guy and he continues to make plays."
Without a doubt, every team in the league can use a player like Micheal Spurlock. Luckily for the Chargers, they have the real McCoy.

I would improve some of the definitions and try to highlight some more of the important things. Even though I read the book some things I looked over due to hiding.read more
The least helpful as in any book to me is the student questions at the end. I learn more when I actually read and don't have all of that to look through.
Space and how the planets came to be was the primary focus. I liked this book because I am interested in space. It covered the subject well and gave you things to think about.read more
I wouldn't change anything. It was very informative and had lots of pictures to help you visualize.
This book has a lot of information, although it covers it well it does go a bit further in depth than was needed for the elementary astronomy class. Cover is very flimsy and hard to keep in good shape.read more
Make it into a hardcover or have a cover that is not the same quality as the pages inside the book.
Amazing understanding of the universe starting from earth and then moving on as far as we know. equal discussions on all scientific aspects surrounding astronomy such as physics and chemistry.read more
There are a few errors in the book such as typos and basic math miscalculations does not effect the us fullness of the book but if there is a rewrite could be fixed.
Introduction for student to the universe beyond the earth.read more
Very good pictures and covered a wide range of topics. Very easy to understand and very interesting book.

Leopard's Dock doesn't work on the side
Rogue Ameoba's got a legit complaint with the Dock in Leopard: it looks horrible sitting on the side. Personally, it's not really a concern for me, because I've never moved my Dock from the bottom of the screen (seems weird to have it on the side, like the workspace is off balance).

No News is Bad News
There is a famous recording from the BBC in the early 1930s. In a resonant upper-crust English accent the baritone man read the station break: "This is the BBC in London." Five tones counted down to the exact top of the hour. Bong. Then he went on: "Now the news, I am Julian Chamberlain. There is no news. Now, back to our regular programming."
There was no news! None, apparently, worthy of the world-wide service of the BBC. All was right in the world; World War I was over, Germany was suffering hyper-inflation, Hitler was organizing; Stalin was starving Ukrainians by the millions, we were heading into Depression. It was the "calm" before the storm.
And, so it was last night at city council. There were but a few minor bills on the agenda – new cars for the police department, a street sweeper, some sewer work. Routine matters. The one controversial bill, a contentious rewrite of the Tax Abatement rules, was tabled. And, that bill is just the tip of the iceberg called tax reform, the issue that will inform every decision of city council and the administration this year.
Last night, in the back of the room, were the two people who had forced council, the administration and the county to review and rewrite polices surrounding Tax Abatements. Tom Lewandowski and Cheryl Hitzemann sat quietly observing. The night before they had held their own hearing in council chambers on abatements in which they pointed out again, perhaps for the thousandth time, the cozy, insider nature of the Abatement Game that is hardly more than a transfer of wealth from taxpayers to a few corporations. In short, abatements are given to companies primarily in exchange for the creation of jobs. Taxes that would otherwise have gone to repair of streets or new squad cars or a class of officers are not just collected, they are forgiven or abated. The company keeps what they would have paid, what every other company in town pays. Sadly, the administration has struggled to prove that the first job was created in exchange for the millions of dollars that were not collected. Our government does not check records, instead companies self-report and self-police, rather like the big banks on Wall Street. In one instance 490 jobs were promised, but the company ended up causing some 600 workers to lose their jobs to make room for the 490 jobs. But, since those "created" jobs were never verified who really knows whether they were anything more than ghosts. As Reagan said: trust but verify. The system is a shambles of apples and oranges statistics that serve no purpose other than to call into question the entire Abatement program.
So, the county held secret meetings to formulate a new policy which they will now call Tax Phase Ins. Lipstick on a Pig? It was to have been discussed last night, but was tabled for another week.
The abatement charade is, however, part of the larger question of tax reform and resource allocation that is rattling around in city hall and among council members. City Controller Pat Roller initiated a process last year by calling together some of the brightest minds in Indiana to review income and needs of our little city and recommend how to reorganize government income and expenses. According to what I have heard both cuts and new taxes will be recommended. In short, you will have to dig a bit deeper to receive fewer services.
A number of city council members are at that reform table and are pushing to a variety of changes: a four-point-five day work week, changes in work rules, Legacy fund contributions, income tax increases and more user fees. But, they also admit that the economy has turned for the better in Indiana, that revenues are on the increase meaning the pressure might be less than feared. They admit that they are not sure whether the income side will be as dire as has been predicted. So far, there is no news from the mayor or controller. When the question is asked they count their shoe laces and change the subject. Under the surface, however, the meetings and the button-holing are picking up speed. The storm lies just ahead in the annual budget process that kicks into high gear in September and comes to a Wagnerian climax in October.
Usually, at budget time council nibbles around the edges by cutting a few dollars here and few there just to keep their title of watchdog. There is no rhyme nor reason to the collection of cuts offered by the nine individuals on council, just disparate cuts motivated by personal concern. And, every now and then they rise together like so many trained dolphins to phyrricly cut the tax levy, an exercise in shooting themselves and all the rest of us in the foot, an exercise that only that shifts money that would have gone to Fort Wayne to other communities in the county. No savings to taxpayers, Fort Wayne's piece of the pie simply shrinks and flows elsewhere. Then they complain about not enough money for roads…
So, it was the calm before the storm last night. Next week council will discuss the revisions to the Abatement system and you can bet that no one will be happy. Perhaps that is a good thing. Everybody gets something, everybody gives something. But, sadly, there will still not be oversight to assure the taxpayers that for their efforts the abatement recipients did anything more than pay for an upper management retreat on Curacao, sailboat included.
With reported unemployment over 12 percent for high school grads in Allen County (around 20 percent for drop-outs and higher for minorities) it is a stretch to say this jobs creation effort has been a success. If the figure of less than 3 percent unemployment for college grads is accurate then we know where most of the benefits have flowed.
And, meanwhile, churning away in back rooms and private meetings, in gatherings at the Country Club and during golf outings in Costa Rica, in Indianapolis and over beer at Deer Park Lodge the struggle for Fort Wayne's future is being decided.
A budget should be a list of priorities quantified. Simple as that. Sad thing is that the administration doesn't seem to have a set of priorities, or at least has failed to enunciate them to the community. As for council, they have none either. A couple do have a vision for Fort Wayne, but for most members of council it is only cut-cut-cut and then whine about bad roads. For others their job is merely to assess whether the new street sweeper will use the right weight of oil. For the rest of us there is no news. It is the calm before the storm.
One Response to No News is Bad News
gad_fly says:
When the city budget is drafted this year, there will be a significant increase in the cost of employee heathcare as the result of Obamascary kicking in on January 1, 2014. Premiums will rise because of new taxes related to paying for 111 new agencies and administration of this monstrosity. Mandated coverage for procedures and drugs never before included in modest insurance policies alone are expected to increase premiums as much as 50%. The inability to use actuarial pricing, or turn down anyone due to pre-existing conditions, or keep anyone from gaming the system as "free riders," will send costs through the roof. The Manhattan Institute says that Indiana premiums are expected to rise 95%.
So we will spend legacy money on riverfront consultants to benefit friends of Democrats and we will continue to give away cash for fake jobs and that says a great deal about our city politicians.
As for our humming economy, the GNP dropped again for the December quarter and if this continues through March, we will once again be officially in a recession.

Shark Sushi Plate: Big Fish Eat Little Fish
February 3rd, 2013
I love sushi. Not only does it taste good, it's actually one of the more healthy things you can put in your body. I really should eat more of the stuff. But I have a thing about only eating it when it's freshly made in a restaurant. I never buy the pre-made rolls in the grocery – and definitely don't possess the knife skills to make my own. But maybe owning this sushi plate would inspire me to eat sushi at home more often.
The ceramic shark sushi plate is handmade by Avigayil of Avi Ceramics, and it's the perfect way to eat your sushi – assuming you don't mind fighting a great white for each tasty morsel of raw fish and rice, as you dip it into the beast's mouth to get some soy sauce.
So if you're a sushi loving marine biologist, you can order one for yourself for $70(USD) plus shipping by following the instructions over on DeviantArt.

Top Local Tips for Kennebunkport
Whale Watching We booked a reservation with First Chance Whale Watching. When I booked I gave them a name and telephone number. When we arrived at 8:45 am for our 9:00am tour we were told they did not have enough reservations to take the boat out and cancelled the trip. VERY INCONVENIENT as we had planned our day around that excursion. I was not pleased. The woman at the booth offered us a name of another tour out of Perkins Cove (which was great) but the womandid not offer us a contact number or any other information that would help us as tourists. I was very disappointed and would not recommend this tour to anyone.
Lovely Kport Kennebunkport is a charming town. The beaches are limited, but the area is beautiful Most of the restaurants we have eaten in were very nice, including the time we got a pizza in Cape Porpoise. When it's rainy or just something else to do,it's about an hour's drive to Freeport (LLBean) and 45 min. to Portland. We've biked, canoed and have even used the library. It is quite crowded in the summer, but Sept. is very nice

How prevalent is child marriage now?
On a particular day every year in Rajasthan, in a particular village, there are twenty thousand marriages performed. It's called "Akha Teej," and that's an auspicious day when you don't have to see the calendar, whether that's a good day or a bad day, so there are twenty thousand child marriages on that day. I went in disguise as chairperson of the National Commission for Women, and stayed in that village for three days to get raids done so that these children don't get married. But it was so difficult. You know, they do it in their own fashion, somehow or the other, at home, or here, or hiding somewhere. It's so difficult to catch them. But it's a huge ceremony. And even the government has not been able to stop it.
What incentive do the parents of these girls have to marry—
See, these children are a burden, these girls are a burden on the parents.
These are all presumably poor parents?
Even if they are rich a girl is a burden. Rich or poor she's a burden. So, they're a burden, and the older the girl is the dowry demands are greater. So this is the age when they start getting these girls married. They don't send the girl to a husband's house till 10, when she's matured. Then only the girl goes to her marital home. By that time the husband is often dead. I mean, she has not even gone to her husband, but she has become a widow!
Have perceptions of widows changed in all the time that you've been working on this issue?
Very little, very little. In spite of all this work that I do, it's just two per cent of the whole society that I'm touching. It's so difficult.
And this is in North India alone, or have you worked all across—
I work all across, yes. It's everywhere.
Are there regional variations?
There are regional variations, yes.
Are some places better than others?
Oh yes, sure.
What are the worst places?
Worst places are religious places.

A few days behind on posting this, but can't resist sharing Xander's birth story.
On Thursday the 12th, husband and I walked around the mall and target, had buffalo wings for lunch, walked a mile around the neighborhood, had sex twice, and nothing. I went to bed at 2am slightly discouraged and cranky. Well, at 2:30 I woke up to terrible cramping. I went downstairs and walked around, tried to sleep on the couch, drank lots of water, and then noticed the cramps were getting worse and closer together. They were just below my belly, nothing in my back or up top but I did feel the tightness in my abdomen. The contractions were 3 minutes apart! I was terrified I would get to L&D and would be sent home and told to suck it up it was nothing, and they hurt BAD! I was already 4cm dialated at my appointment that Wednesday, so with contractions so close together I realized I had to go. I woke up husband up at 4:30, two hours after they started at 3 minutes apart! We get to the hospital and I was 5cm and admitted right away at exactly 39 weeks, I was going to try to go natural but because they came on so fast and so close they were about 43545 times worse than I expected and I received the epidural at about 6am. I got the epidural and was very suprised by how much I could still feel. (Not to scare anyway, it was in NO WAY anywhere near what it was, I just didn't realizae I would still be able to feel as much). At 7:30 I had DH get the nurse because I peed myself, well, no I didn't. My water broke and I was 8 cm already! I went from 5 to 8 in less than two hours. At 8 I got the feeling I needed to push, and was 10 cm! He was on his way.. but not. The doctor wasn't there and they wanted to see if Xander would move down a little on his own first so I couldn't push yet. A WHOLE HOUR later we were ready to start, and after 1.5 hours of pushing, out came Baby Xander with only a second degree tear.
7pounds and 13 ounces, 19.5 inches long and lots of black hair! He is absotely beautiful and I couldn't feel more blessed. Besides the healing being harder than I'd thought it be, we are all doing fantastic! I'm not sure how I got lucky to have him a week early, or such a quick labor and delivery, but I wish it for everyone that wants it! Can't wait to move on from posts about mucus plugs and dialating to breastfeeding and poop! Hope everyone is doing well

But we're not talking about THOSE STDs. No, we're talking about save the dates–you know, those preludes to a wedding invitation that you get in the mail about six months before the big day. Yeah, those STDs. We've made them before for customer weddings but until now you couldn't purchase them through our gallery. Now save the dates are a product option on every design page in the gallery, making it easy to get a price for and checkout with those little calendar requesters. We even offer mail service for save the dates so customers don't have to stamp, seal, and send them if they don't want to.
Mightyvite save the dates come with pre-addressed envelopes and full access to the Mightyvites Planner for guest list management. Depending on the design, we offer letterpress and digital prints. Customers can purchase their wedding invitations at the same time as the save the dates or later. Either way we'll make sure they're matched so that the customer's paper trail to the chapel is nothing short of unified and elegant.
Need save the dates or invitations for your wedding or other special event? Go with a Mightyvite, and get a design that is sure to please.

Anti-Depressants Causing Gun Confiscations In New York
And so it begins…
While we have the President and Mayors Against Illegal Guns campaigning saying that this isn't about confiscation, and no one is coming after your guns, the facts show a different story. At first we ignored this story believing it to be propaganda, but as The Blaze picked it up, we knew the facts were there. The fact of the matter is:
- Gun owners are losing their 2nd Amendment rights without due process.
- HIPAA Laws are likely being compromised and the 4th and 5th Amendments are being violated in some of these cases
From the looks of it, there is a clause in the NY Safe Act that permits a mandatory confiscation of all firearms if the person in question has been prescribed psychotropic drugs. This can include anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medication.
The Case In Question:
On April 1st, a legal gun owner in upstate New York reportedly received an official notice from the state ordering him to surrender any and all weapons to his local police department. The note said that the person's permit to own a gun in New York was being suspended as well. The gun owner contacted attorney Jim Tresmond (a specialist in gun laws in New York) and the two visited the local police precinct.
Mr. Tresmond was there to turn represent his client in the voluntary surrender of his weapons as requested by the state police. According to law, if the person who receives the letter from the police does not follow the request, the local police are authorized to go to the person's house and confiscate the guns.
The Mental Health Law provision of the SAFE Act claims
The NY SAFE Act is designed to remove firearms from those who seek to do harm to themselves or others. This means keeping the minority of individuals with serious mental illness who may be dangerous away from access to firearms. This law should not dissuade any individual from seeking mental health services they need.
The law is clear on what it expects:
MHL 9.46 requires mental health professionals to report to their local director of community services ("DCS") or his/her designees when, in their reasonable professional judgment, one of their patients is "likely to engage in conduct that would result in serious harm to self or others."
Basically what this comes down to is that under the NY Safe Act, medical professionals now have the power to claim that a patient is not fit to own guns. Tresmond is fighting to restore his client's 2nd amendment rights and we will keep you updated on the story as we find out more so please be sure to subscribe to our updates in the top right corner of the site.

Transporting a sit-on-top boat can be quite challenging due to the large width and often the heavier weight associated with this style of paddle craft. Sea to Summit set out to create a unique sit-on-top cart that was universal in application and robust enough to cater for the large range of boats that fit within this category. The patent-pending design features tapered cones that fit snugly into a broad range of scupper hole sizes while also reducing side-to-side movement of your cart during towing. Furthermore, a variable width axle design with a heavy duty quick release clamp will fit most recreational sit-on-tops. This cart can be used with or without the included tie down. Gently used, shows minor signs of use, item is otherwise new and complete.

Torchlight is a pretty awesome hack n' slay RPG and the successor is out now. Download another cool Torchlight 2 Windows 7 theme from our site if you like the game
Update: Also download this theme
Well, if you are looking for an epic RPG with story, you better don't get Torchlight, but if you're more into collecting items and leveling toons, you should give Torchlight a try – it's a very addictive combination. If you need good graphics and an epic story, you're better off with Dungeon Siege 3 – a truly worthy successor to Dungeon Siege 2!
Torchlight 2 Wallpapers
Anyway, let's take a look at the Torchlight 2 walls for your desktop:
Download Torchlight 2 Windows 7 Theme
More Windows 7 themes for other RPG's are coming, including a theme for Kingdoms of Amalur. Torchlight 2 is currently planned for 2011, but I wouldn't be surprised if they'd delay the release to 2012 – but it will surely be released before Diablo 3, that's for sure!

Nicaragua is a hot place to be right now if you're craving sun, surf, and sand – and Morgan's Rock is definitely the sustainable hotel you'll want to stay at. Located right on the Pacific coast, the hotel enjoys a quiet beach and 85 degree water year round. The ecolodge shares a 1,800 hectare farm named "El Aguacate" with Desarrollo Ecoforestal S.A, which contains 1,000 hectares of precious hardwood trees and 800 hectares of the "Reserva Silvestre Privada El Aguacate" natural reserve, which is protected by the government. In addition, the farm works to sustainably grow and harvest tropical hardwoods while educating visitors and other farmers on smart practices. While there, visitors can learn more about the local flora and fauna or take part in eco tourist activities like hikes, jungle tours, kayaking in the estuary, surfing and sailing.
The ecolodge is named after Senator John Tyler Morgan, who supported building the water route through Nicaragua instead of Panama. Built on a cliff and accessed by a suspension bridge, the hotel features private bungalows set amongst the trees. The buildings were built by local craftsman using locally sourced stone, palm fronds and wood. To reduce site impact, the hotel cut as few trees as possible and minimized earth movement. Traditional architecture with palapa roofs rely on sea breezes for cooling and solar hot water heaters soak up energy for hot showers. All waste water is collected in a centralized system and treated with a bio filter and then used for irrigation. Whenever possible food is sourced on site from the organic farm or nearby from the ocean and other local farms.

In Praise of Philip Seymour Hoffman
Reaction to John le Carré's essay in this Sunday's New York Times is cascading forth on Twitter.
From San Francisco, Nelle Engeron opines that the piece is "the brilliant and heartbreaking obituary he [Philip Seymour Hoffman] deserves." In Madison, Wisconsin, Dave Martin dubs le Carré's "Staring at the Flame" the "best read of the week." And from London, singer David Albury calls the article: "Touching and honest. And sad." They're all correct.
From le Carré's essay:
No actor had ever made quite the impact on me that Philip did at that first encounter: not Richard Burton, not Burt Lancaster or even Alec Guinness. Philip greeted me as if he'd been waiting to meet me all his life, which I suspect was how he greeted everyone. But I'd been waiting to meet Philip for a long time.

The City of Hopkins no longer has rain barrels left for sale. The rain barrels have a 55-gallon capacity and are 32 inches high with a 54-inch circumference.
You can contact the Recycling Association of MN (www.recycleminnesota.org) to buy rain barrels.
Rain barrels collect rain from your rain gutter for use in your garden. This saves money by cutting down on water usage. The water is clean (an aluminum mesh screen filters out leaves, sticks or any other debris while protecting the contents from any animals or pets) as well as environmentally friendly (chlorine-free water is healthier for plants).

So I took the plunge and bought a NIB Sig P225 from Top Gun Supply. All German, triple serials, German proof-marked, but no date code on the chin (2009 manufacture). Trijicon night sights. Supposedly the last P225's to be imported or manufactured, or some such (that wasn't a factor in my decision - The "NIB" and "single-stack 9mm DA/SA folded carbon steel slide Sig" were the main selling points for me; This one will be shot quite a bit)
I have fallen in love w/ Sig DA/SA autos. If this P225 proves to be anywhere near as reliable as my Euro P220 in 9mm, then I will be looking for a Sparks Versamax-II pronto, ordering up some spare mags, and maybe (MAYBE) even selling one of my range-toy P7's.... But the P7M8 will remain my EDC for the time being, and foreseeable near-future.
Should be arriving at my preferred FFL today, and I will likely pick it up on Saturday... Will post pics ASAP... Or you could check it out on TGS website:
Sig Sauer P225, Nitron, DA/SA, Night Sights, 9mm - NEW - Top Gun Supply
A+ for TGS customer service... There was an issue w/ my FFL not getting their copy faxed over in a timely fashion, and Michelle at Top Gun Supply contacted them in order to expedite the shipment of my new baby...
I'm a happy camper...

The idea of living a holy life may seem to be an impossibly high standard or faraway goal. Yet the Bible teaches that holiness is possible even for ordinary people like us.
In this study you will discover that, with the help of God's Holy Spirit, you can live a holy life.
The D-Series provides basic, easy-to-apply small group studies on six essential topics for spiritual growth. Together, these six studies will form a ladder leading the believer from the point of conversion to involvement in ministry. Each four-session study is Bible based and follows the learning pattern of addressing head (mind), heart (emotions or affective reasoning), hands (action), and habits (spiritual practices).

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. John Kerry, the next secretary of state?
Republican Sen. John McCain had some fun Monday at the expense of his friend and Democratic colleague. Responding to a Kerry introduction at a news conference on a disabilities treaty, McCain said, "thank you very much, Mr. Secretary."
It was a clear reference to the recent talk that Kerry is a top candidate to replace Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. It was also a nod to McCain's opposition to the current front-runner, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice.
Kerry gave it back with his own quip, one that pained McCain.
"Thank you very much Mr. President," Kerry said when he returned to the microphone. McCain unsuccessfully sought the presidency in 2000 and 2008.

Force India's VJM07 has come "a long way" since the Jerez test, says a confident Nico Hulkenberg.
Entrusted with the car on the final day of pre-season testing, Hulkenberg claimed fourth place on the timesheets during his 74 laps.
And although it was a solid final day on paper, Hulkenberg revealed he did not do a race simulation on the day.
That, though, has done very little to dampen his confidence.
"The final day of testing went pretty wellm," he said.
"In the end we didn't do the race simulation, but we did some long runs and signed off a lot of other things on the job list.
"We didn't do as many laps as yesterday (Saturday), but we still made progress and learned some new things. So it's been two good days for me and I'm feeling pretty satisfied.
"You always want more time to prepare, but I think we're in good shape. The car has come a long way since the first Jerez test and we have made progress every day."
