We all know how important fiber is to any diet. But many foods that contain fiber also bring with it carbs and if you are on Atkins, Keto or any low-carb diet every gram of carbs counts.
I was also very courious and wanted to see if there were any foods that were almost all fiber. Thats when I came across Corn Bran:
1 cup of Corn Bran (crude) contains:
170 Calories
6 Cals. from Fat
5mg Sodium
33mg Potassium
65g Carbohydrates
65g Diatery Fiber
6g Protein
So the question here is:
If you only count NET CARBS (carbs-fiber=net carbs) and Corn Bran has 65g of each doesnt this mean you are in fact consuming 65g of fiber and 0 Net Carbs?
And so cant someone on Keto or Atkins use Corn Bran as a pure source of fiber without worrying about carbs?
For all you Keto dieters: where do you get your fiber from?

What To Do With That Old Pumpkin Now That It's The Christmas Season?
I decorate for the holidays – yup – everyone of them. It's Brenda Matthews, and I admit…I 'overdecorate' for Christmas – I love the season! But, at our house, it's still the 'shoulder season,' since we haven't taken down the corn stalk and pumpkin at the front gate. In other words, we haven't 'transitioned!' I still have a few little miniature white pumpkins – Baby Boo's – love them(!) – around my mantle. My husband Kenny discussed what to do with them the other day. He wanted to throw them in the trash. I'm a 'green' girl, and if I can re-use or recycle – then I'll find a way!
I 'Googled' 'pumpkin recycling' and found Earth911.com.
If your pumpkins are still in good shape and have been inside your home, yes, you can make tasty treats with the pumpkin 'meat,' like pies, puree for pumpkin martini's (yum!) and pumpkin bars, cupcakes and pancakes.
If your pumpkin, like mine, has been outdoors for a while, they suggest composting your pumpkin, or if you live in a rural area, like I do, cut the pumpkin in quarters, and leave it for the wildlife! The deer and other furry forest animals will love the pulp (the rest is biodegradable), and the birds and squirrels will love the seeds!
There – that's my plan!

In His Shadow III - The NightmareRain fell from the sky. So heavy and dense that sight was near impossible. The only improvement was the occasional flash of lightning which illuminated the white stone gate, the sturdy wooden bridge closed tightly, impenetrable. Directly above it, the image of the Royal crest had been expertly carved into the stone; its raised surface cast slight shadows each time the lightning light struck it.In His Shadow III - The Nightmare by Emmaj26
The rapid pitter-patter sound of heavy raindrops crashing into the moat harmonized with the grumble of thunder. This was soon interrupted by a new sound; a rattling, metallic shake as the chains securing the drawbridge gave way. The bridge lowered quickly, slamming into place over the moat. From the dark corridor on the other side, a pinprick of white was visible, growing larger by the second.
Hooves clattered on cobblestone, a horse's neigh echoed down the street; the next second, the pure white horse was galloping past him. He leaped aside, raising his head in time to see the rider
In His Shadow - Bonus ChapterHyrule was in a state of unease. The future of the kingdom looked bleak. The people had begun to lose hope. Even now, the forces that would destroy Hyrule marched upon her gates, ready to strike the final blow.In His Shadow - Bonus Chapter by Emmaj26
The King sat alone in his office, his head lowered, his eyes downcast. Outside, it rained. He had failed. He had failed his people. He had failed Hyrule. The war was not over. His army was faltering; their spirits had been stripped. The Gerudo forces approached his city, a dark shadow on the horizon.
The King raised his head; a slow, almost painful motion for him. His eyes were bloodshot, encircled by the darkness of insomnia. His white, withered hands shook like that of a man twice his age. Indeed, he did not look himself. He had aged decades in a single year.
Today should have been a day of celebration, but he could not find it in his heart to do so. How could he, when everything had crumbled so rapidly around him? His enemies grew stronger, thanks to his own foolish actions.
In His Shadow Prologue: The Goddess of TimeSweet, encompassing coolness filled the hall; a welcome contrast to the burning world outside the temple. Impossibly, it was undamaged by the fires just outside its stone walls, resisting all the world's evils.In His Shadow Prologue: The Goddess of Time by Emmaj26
The heavy door closing behind him, he dropped to his knees, the pain blinding. He didn't have much time, but he couldn't stop his lungs from taking great heaving breaths, or his body from shaking.
He knew the Demon would make chase soon, after it discovered what had been done to its pet. Glancing down at his spoils from his encounter with the beast, he felt a small satisfaction. A large chunk of its deep blue, armor-like hide and its twin, curving tusks had scattered to the floor. Suitable trophies, he thought.
Struggling upwards with great difficulty, he placed gauntleted hands on his own head, gripping his helmet. He lifted it free, tossing it to the ground with the other objects. The clanging sound of it landing echoed in the hall as he stepped forward. Move
In His Shadow I - A Hero Comes HomeHamlet of Tellura, several miles north of Kakariko VillageIn His Shadow I - A Hero Comes Home by Emmaj26
Shaiya straightened, wiping her brow in the summer heat. She leaned wearily against the side of the house, breathing heavily. Since her husband had been away, it had fallen to her to maintain the house, the garden, the livestock…and the children. She heard a high-pitched squeal and smiled fondly at her two sons, who were busy playing in the yard.
Her eldest son was nearly four now. Her youngest had turned a year old that spring. The infant was sitting on a blanket, watching his brother with curiosity, giggling occasionally. The dark-haired boy was preoccupied firing a slingshot at some squirrels in a nearby tree.
Shaiya knelt down and lifted the large bucket of water, having just refilled it at the pump. She carried it carefully inside and into the kitchen, setting it beside the sink. Her chore complete, she hurried outside, wiping her hands on her apron. She stopped when she noticed him doing something peculiar. H
Majora's Ghost - Chapter 8Chapter Eight: Dawn of the Second DayMajora's Ghost - Chapter 8 by VeanOracleofLight
Vean turned over in his straw bed, feeling too tired and sore to get up. Link could do enough damage when he wasn't under the control of some laughing sorcerer and Vean hadn't exactly fought back.
A rooster caw sounded and Vean sat up in annoyance. He rubbed his eyes, trying to clear his head. The room he was in was cramped and cluttered, rough drawings of grassy fields and oceans covering most of the wood paneling. It was his new friend Kafei's room.
He started to feel a little claustrophobic in the small room so he made his way over to the door and opened it just a crack so that he could see into the main room of the house. He spotted Kafei's grandmother walking around, probably making breakfast. She was right between him and the front door. Great, he thought tiredly. He was thankful that Cremia had given him a place to stay for the night, but he didn't want to stay any longer than necessary. Especially
Majora's Ghost - Chapter 7Chapter Seven: Dozing OffMajora's Ghost - Chapter 7 by VeanOracleofLight
Vean's usually sketchy memory was now filled with recollections of his parents. Things that he only remembered vaguely before came to him with crystal clarity and things he had forgotten long before coming down with amnesia returned to him as well. The man before him was more than a memory though. This man was a living breathing image of his dad. His hair was long, brown, and flopped over his forehead. His eyes were dark green and very expressive under his thick eyebrows.
"Your dad?" the man said as he looked over Vean's head back in the direction they had come. "Was he in the canyon back there?"
Vean blinked, at a loss for words. Yes, his dad had been in that canyon. His dad was standing before him right now, but the man didn't know it. This man, Rohe, didn't know who Vean was at all. How was that at all possible?
"Kid, was your father in that canyon with you?" he asked again, putting his hand
Majora's Ghost - Chapter 6Chapter Six: A Game of TagMajora's Ghost - Chapter 6 by VeanOracleofLight
Vean thought back to the times when he had nearly killed Link as Malum and almost felt that this was some sort of payback. Link charged forward and swung his blade at his brother with a broad swing. Vean dove aside, but he then had to roll sideways as Link brought his blade straight down on him.
"Link, what are you doing?" Vean asked as he got to his feet and backed away. "It's me, your brother Vean."
There wasn't any change in Link's blank expression. The Fierce Deity before him hardly looked like his brother. The masked sorcerer's annoying high pitched laugh rang through the silence. "Once the Fierce Deity finishes you off, I'll only have one hero to worry about," the man chuckled. "I'm glad that Kurai told me about you. Destroying you both separately wouldn't have been as much fun."
Link swung his sword again, but this time a slice of light shot out of it and h
Majora's Ghost - Chapter 1Chapter One: Dawn of the First DayMajora's Ghost - Chapter 1 by VeanOracleofLight
Vean was woken up by the feeling of the sun on his face. The feeling startled him and he opened his eyes to see that the morning was already halfway over. He sat up abruptly, causing his little sailboat to sway back and forth on the water. The other small boy aboard, who had been sitting hazardously balanced on the edge of the boat, cried out with the effort of not falling into the ocean.
"Yoru?" Vean remembered as he brushed his floppy blond hair from his face. "What are you doing? You were supposed to wake me up long before morning."
Yoru climbed to a more stable position in the boat and put his hand back on the tiller just as Vean had shown him to do last night. "I did try to wake you up," the boy explained. "But you didn't hear me."
Vean highly doubted that notion. He was usually a very light sleeper, but then again, yesterday had been a very trying day. An evil demigoddess, her undergro
LoZ: Old Fashioned Arcade... Part 1LoZ: Old Fashioned Arcade... Part 1 by LinkNZeldaForever
Part 1: Hey!
Jennifer was standing in a rather dimly lit room. There was no natural light, no windows to be seen in this part of the building, only the flashing and flickering of machines... They lined the walls from one end to the other and seemed to go on forever. Each room seemed to be identical from the last and the machines from a distance with their clicks, beeps and whistles all seemed to be the same as well. They looked like coffins on legs and she did not like it here...
She knew no one and couldn't tell even if she did it was so dark. People seemed to be completely engaged with the machines; slapping, pushing, bumping and laughing as they did so. Others were dead silent, as if they were in a trance, while others still looked down right mean with dark hoods over their heads as they grunted and cursed, sweated and shoved, banged and thrust their heavy weight against them, the metal whining against their rough calloused hand
LoZ: Letters From Home...LoZ: Letters From Home... by LinkNZeldaForever
Link stood at attention, his back and shoulders rigid, his legs straight but slightly bent in an effort not to pass out. He was drenched in sweat breathing heavily, his uniform being weighed down from many layers of encrusted mud, filth and dirt. His whole body ached something fierce from the long arduous road marches, doing dangerous field exercises and also being worked to death for any minor grievance such as sneezing or coughing out of turn, not to mention when other guys did worse offenses, the group as a whole seemed to get punished for just one person's actions...
They were back at the garrison now, although some more of the bad weeds and the weak had been cut from their ranks, while others who had been injured were recuperating at the medics. Most of the unmarried men and even some who were, always talked about the nurses and the only place around for a hundred miles that you could see a good looking dame was at the clinic...
But Link
LoZ: Chains That Bind Part 1Part 1: Delusions of Grandeur...LoZ: Chains That Bind Part 1 by LinkNZeldaForever
Link was in his happy place... He was with his beautiful loving wife Zelda, just finishing a wonderful picnic in Hyrule field under a tree and it had been the perfect day for it. By now the sun was going downward on it's long journey, leaving the breeze cool to the touch. The young lovers were holding one another staring into each others eyes, with Link already lost in hers, something that happened quite often... Such a beautiful hazel they were and her dark wavy hair from time to time would blow gently across her pale face, giving her a mysterious look that drove him absolutely crazy. Such perfect eloquent features she had... Every man in the kingdom had wanted her, but most would have wished for the title of "Prince" and the power it would wield, the vast amounts of fortunes that were in the royal coffers or simply to "have" her...
But Link was different... He didn't
63. Do Not DisturbZeLink 100 Theme Challenge63. Do Not Disturb by Linkey95
Out in the wide open clear sky, a pair of two beautiful large birds soared across the sky gracefully. They glided along with the smooth air currents effortlessly, the warm comforting air ruffling against their feathers. The large birds were quite noticeable, not only because they were the only birds out in the early morning sky, but mostly because their bright, distinctive colors. One of the two avians was a beautiful shade of blue-purple, while its partner in flight, which it had grown accustomed to flying with, had a distinctive bright red. But, the birds were not alone. Atop their backs were also a distinctive pair themselves. Two that were the best of friends. Inseparable.
Link glanced over at Zelda, looking ever so beautiful as the sun shone down on her, making her look like a pink angel, her golden locks softly flowing in the wind. She returned the look and smiled. Oh, that lovely smile he adored so much. Just looking at it made his heart want to
SoonI woke up again in the early morning because of that dream. It had continued for a month already. But it didn't bother me. If I'd managed to actually feel something, I guess I'd felt that dream pretty safe. It would have been safe, because I know what was going to happen, and who was it talking to me in the dream. She had told me herself.Soon by Zeliga
"Can you hear me?" she had said the first time I saw the dream.
"Yes", I answered, and then she told me her name. She asked, had I ever been wondering, why didn't I actually feel anything.
"No", I said, "I've never wondered about it. There is 98% chance there's a reason for that."
"Yes... Yes indeed", she laughed and if I'd been able to see her, I's seen her smiling. "You feel nothing, because you were born to serve me and your master", she explained. I asked how did I actually serve her. She told me, I didn't. Yet. She told me, the time hasn't come yet.
"When does it come?" I questioned.
"Soon..." she said, and then I woke up.
It had been a year sinc
Every Legend has a Beginning : Chapter oneEvery Legend has a Beginning : Chapter one by FireDragoness
Chapter one: Dawn of a new world.
Before the beginnings of Time, there was nothing but Chaos.
From the Nothingness emerged streams of energy, glimpses of Things That Could Be But Were Not, before returning to the Emptiness.
There, were the Godesses of Old, the Three Maidens of Virtue: Din, whose Power was absolute, Nayru, who held infinite Wisdom, and Farore, whose heart was filled with unshakeable Courage.
The Golden Maidens laid their eyes on the inform mass of the Chaos, and saw the Void waiting to be filled. The Three Divine Sisters were displeased by the sight, and Nayru, with her great Wisdom, decided to shape the World.
She told her sisters of her plan, and all agreed.
Din was the first one to stand: in a swift movement, She cut her fiery hair and laid it in the Void. From her hair grew the Red Earth, and with her mighty Power She shaped the ground. With her flaming hands She sculpted the mountains and dug the seabeds; She prepared the rich soils of the plains a
Timeless love"Link... Link!"Timeless love by Zeliga
The White Goddess bowed down and took the cold skinned hero in her arms. She could not hear the man's heart beating anymore. The Goddess spoke to him softly. Explaining the hero's destiny. Explaining his painful life full of suffering.
Even she knew, Link wouldn't hear.
A sparkling tear rolled down the Goddess Hylia's cheek and dropped on the face of the hero. The goddess regretted her choice. Her people were saved now, yes, but she had sacrificed a very good man.
The man she had loved the most of her people.
The man, she still loved.
The man, who had loved her back.
Another tear dropped.
A tear of the Goddess.
"I will ensure that your gentle, heroic spirit will live on eternally..." she quietly promised to her hero while more tears fell down.
Drip, drop. Drip, drop.
The silent cry of the Goddess.
Her voice had turned only to a whisper. "And I..." she said, "I shall shed my divinity. The next time we meet, I wish to stand before you as a simple human..."
Hylia wanted to
A Short Preview"Do not worry. I will not kill you."A Short Preview by PepperMonkey564
It repeats through the emptiness of the forest. In the depths of Faron.
When will death come? I do not know.
All that remains in the depths is a small lake, gleaming in the sun. I sit at the edge, waiting. And waiting.
Waiting. Waiting to Patience. Patience... to agony. Agony to death.
I'm rambling, I know. Anxiety makes me feel like I must talk. Am I crazy? I would not believe so. You may think. But you do not know me. The agony I feel in my experience close to the claws of death, is hard to grasp.
But who really knows about death, and lives to tell the tale?
I just wish...
The Legend of Zelda: Unfrozen - Chapter 2The Legend of Zelda: Unfrozen - Chapter 2 by lyoth737
Normal morning passes by. Normally not much is remembered correctly what is done the day before whereas the day tomorrow equalled the previous except for either very immense memory capability, a daily diary.
Or if the memory is treasured because it was only little time until an alteration occurred, either an environmental or personally one.
Nevertheless, the matter that one of the stronger members that inhabited the petty, half decayed accumulation of houses surrounded by loads of patched up protection wall and two small watch-towers in dirty white and equally buried beneath knee-high snow coverlet was being killed in an monster's attack three days ago barely contaminated the daily program. The sighting post on both sides needed to be recruited with sharp eyes, the hick town's smith fire and only really source of comfortable warmth of the whole village wanted to be fed and the animals needed a feeding hand full with dry cornstalks of wheat that grew in the l

Zelda Rp chap 7When they awoke, Kensou packed up everything, waiting until the last moment to wake up Kara.Zelda Rp chap 7 by freak4zelda
"Kara," she said shaking her. "Kara, its time to get up.
"Nngh." she said. Groggily, she got up, making sure she had everything. Her face went pale as she reached behind her belt.
"Oh no!" Kara screamed nearly tearing her things apart to find her missing item.
"What is it?" Kensou said looking at her strangely.
"My knife! I always kept it behind my belt!" she ran around frantically.
A small glint seemed to catch Kensou's eye. "Is this it?" he said holding up a fairly large knife with a leather cover.
Kara took it happily, but her eyes faded into a trance. "This was my father's. Actually, he never wanted a girl, he wanted a boy, to carry on this ancient piece of ancestry. But I didn't want to be the daughter he never wanted, so I had him train me who to fight and in exchange I taught him how to control his temper heh, I miss that old geezer " her smile was small, but bright and fu
Zelda Rp chap 2Once they were within sight of the stoned wall, Kensou's face soured slightly. "Ah, I didn't think I'd see this place again so soon...."Zelda Rp chap 2 by freak4zelda
"Heh, did you just start on the run today?" Kara asked kiddingly.
"No, a few months ago, almost half a year. Still, I don't think the soldiers will be happy to see me." He smiled slightly. "I still outrank them, even though I retired."
"I'm not surprised, most of these soldiers just become one for glory, and money. They don't care for Hyrule's safety at all!"
He laughed. "That they don't. I wonder, if you've been in Hyrule for awhile........" He trailed off.
"What?" the silver haired girl was getting anxious.
He looked a little embarrassed, and stared straight ahead. "Well, have you seen... the swordsman named Link?"
Kara turned her head to look at Kensou. "Well, yes, I've seen him, didn't get a chance to introduce myself though. Then again, he wasn't too famous at that time." Kara chuckled at her own statement.
He looked at her, unsure of her stateme
Zelda Rp chap 6Kara awoke in the dead of night. "Ow." she said, feeling the bump on her head. She heard the trickle of water, then a cold, wet cloth settled on her fore-head. She looked up to see Kensou's face. "Y-you're hurt " she said reaching up to feel the gash in his right cheek. He grabbed her hand, and set it to her side.Zelda Rp chap 6 by freak4zelda
"I'd feel better if you rest " he said. Reluctantly, she closed her eyes once more.
When she woke up, she felt someone stroking her hair, and small tears fell onto her forehead. "K-Kensou?" she said tears welling up. "Kensou "
"What is it?" he said wiping his face.
"Thank you "
"For what? For bringing you " he cut himself off.
She sat up. "What's wrong?"
He sighed. "I'm cursed, Kara "
"Cursed? How?"
"I attract the Twilight "
Her face showed her confusion. He showed her a small piercing wound in the palm of his right hand. She took it inspecting it with surprise.
"I was just inspecting the battle field," he said, "I saw this helmet, of some s
Zelda Rp chap 3Securing his horse with care, Kensou entered the bar with Kara. He looked around curiously, for it's been awhile since he's been there. There were a couple people sitting in the back of the room studying a large map. "Hi everyone! I'm back!" Kara exclaims.Zelda Rp chap 3 by freak4zelda
"And just WHERE have you been?" asked the looming Telma.
Stepping forward, Kensou bowed formally. "She was assisting me in the recapture of my horse, dear mistress. I didn't tie his reigns up tight enough, and he yanked them free. I apologize for any inconvenience my carelessness may have caused the both of you."
"Hmph, well, in that case, get your butt over here girl, we've got some customers." Kara sighed, and took and apron off a hook.
Leaning over, she whispered, "Thanks alot, now I guess I owe you one!"
He sat at a table, trying to avoid looking at the soldiers at the far table.

Game TimeOnce upon a time, in a land known as Hyrule, the hero, Link, sat on the edge of a little fishing hole on his one day off that month. He noticed storm clouds on the horizon, and hoped that they would stay away until he had caught at least a couple fish. Even though the fish bit better in the rain, it wasn't exactly a picnic to sit in the freezing rain waiting for them. As he looked at his reflection in the pond, he noticed a raindrop had disturbed his reflection in the water that was smooth as glass a moment ago. As the rain began to fall in full and forced a shudder from him, Link felt a hand on his shoulder and turned to see Princess Zelda beside him with a blanket in her hands.Game Time by Narma-san
"What are you doing out here, Link?" Zelda asked, concern apparent on her face.
"I was just thinking about all that has happened to us," Link replied.
Zelda looked down, her expression somber, then looked back up at him, saying, "Well...catching a cold from getting soaked won't help it, will it?" He did not an

hmm...well, i don't really know how to explain this.....
well the zelda games are pretty much the thing that gave me the most "inspiration" for my art and such. If you ask one of my friends, they will tell you how much of my sketchbook is filled with zelda drawings.
this kinda explains why my username is "freak4zelda" i chose it due to the amount of zelda artwork stuffed in my "gallery" and yeah....that's pretty much it....
"Which game means the most to you, and why?"
urm.....well, i can't really say that i saw my first legend of zelda game on a shelf, thought i'd buy it to try it out, and suddenly fall in love with it. My siblings first played the game and its wasn't until years later that i had a chance.
My first one was Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and by the time i got to play it, i had already known where and what everything was (though the forest temple always gave me a hard time....). And with that i can't

I didn't need to read it to know what has happened, I could see it on my dad and everybody else's faces. Link has died. "Malon I am sorry but-" My dad tryed to talk but I cut him off. "How did it happen?" He looked at the letter for a long time as if he wasn't sure if he was reading it right. "It looks like something killed him..." I waited for him to say more. "He had bites marks on his neck and had lost alot of blood." I had no control over my tears by this point. How? Link though just a boy. Was a hero. He never would have fallen in battle! It didn't make since! "What about Epona?" That was a weird thing to say, I mean Link is DEAD and all i can think to say is what happened to his horse! I guess thats what happens when you live with animals your entire life... "Epona was next to Link when the hyrule guards had found him. She is fine though. A little scared but fine."

The Legend of Zelda: Unfrozen - PrologThe Legend of Zelda: Unfrozen - Prolog by lyoth737
If one set its eyes on the ancient lands of Hyrule, a country blessed by the Goddesses themselves and under the governance of the prudent Royal Family that resided near the capital city, and if one was of an age a normal human could never achieve, it would expect a growing, youthful and spiritual country not only in the broad Hyrule Field, but also in the desert, mountain, lake, forest and the many small cities and farms through the whole country, all exploding with life of all sorts, guided by peaceful individuals of the Hylian race – rather than plain white and cold lairs of the death, stealing every ounce of life the land had resisted or that the sun brought away. However, this was an inevitable truth.
And if one overcame the melancholic shock for the ancient lands of paradise to have vanished and morphed into something that twisted, and if its eyes adjusted to the pure white surreal snow all around the place that rivalled the whites of the majestic clouds one had in its memor
Majora's Ghost - ProloguePrologueMajora's Ghost - Prologue by VeanOracleofLight
The sun was blazing clear and bright over the pirate ship as Captain Tetra walked across the deck. The young girl reached the stern and looked over the sea as it glittered brightly in every direction. On the port side of the ship, they were passing an island that looked very dark against the bright blue sea. They were only a few miles from its beaches now, but Tetra wouldn't give permission for them to go ashore. She had been disconcerted by how it had appeared out of thin air, long after Zuko should have spied it from the crow's nest.
Now as they were leaving it behind them, Tetra pulled out her spyglass and watched after it. The island seemed to have been covered in a large forest at one time, but now there was nothing but dead black husks of trees remaining. The sand of the beaches was a deep gray color and large jagged black rocks stuck up like fingers reaching out to drag the island under the sea.
There was no reason to stop and survey the place for tre
The Hero's Dilemma Chapter 1Link couldn't decide whether to just close or slam the door behind him, his anger tempered by his fear and confusion. How could Telma even think to tell him that he "shouldn't come back for a while?" She owed him not just her life, but the lives of a lost girl and a dying Zora! Had it not been for him the Bulblins would have burned them all to a crisp out in Hyrule Field, and now he wasn't so much as welcome in the bar?! How could she weigh the piercing, bespectacled glare of Shad, a comment that there's no need for swordsmen in a time of peace, and the frightened stares of a handful of customers over the monumental deeds of the hero of all Hyrule?!The Hero's Dilemma Chapter 1 by AngstOfZant

The Mentalist Review: Being Huntedby Christine Orlando at . Updated at . Comments
Thankfully, last week's ho-hum installment appears to have been an anomaly, as The Mentalist Season 6 Episode 12 proved that the show was as good as ever.
As a matter of fact, several things about "The Golden Hammer" left me smiling.
First off, even though they worked separate ends of the investigation for awhile, there were still enough scenes with Jane and Lisbon working together for me to enjoy their banter such as in this The Mentalist quote…
Jane: I'm not your boss. Why would you say that?
Lisbon: Just sometimes now you act like you are.
Jane: We're equals. Partners.
Lisbon: Fine. Just remember that.
- Permalink: Fine. Just remember that.
Lisbon's definitely a little off balance with their new dynamic but it was great to hear that Jane thinks of them as equals. I never truly doubted it but it was still good to actually use the word partner.
The case of the week was fun because Jane was in his element trying to crack the code, but still working as part of the team. I was also happy to see Agent Abbott back and fighting to get Jane the security clearance he needed. No matter how Abbott might feel about Jane personally, he obviously respects his abilities.
How funny was Jane getting hit by Curtis? It was such a wimpy slap that I'd be embarrassed to arrest him. And I'm not even sure I want to know what Jane whispered in the man's ear.
As for Avery, I picked her as the murderer right from the beginning. She was just too darn perky.
Patrick was the one taken aback to hear that Teresa had a date. He certainly didn't seem thrilled to hear that Osvaldo was flying in on his private jet with his tasseled loafers to take Lisbon out to dinner no matter what his reason was. Even later while he and Lisbon chatted on the bench, he still questioned whether the man had contacted her for more personal reasons.
And how cute was Jane when he flirted with her about her hat?
But the truth of the matter was that Osvaldo was really scared and he needed to find someone he could trust. Then Lisbon sent him to Wayne and Grace.
Okay, what was up with Grace's hair? I don't want to be mean but those bangs made her look like a sheepdog.
Moving on…it was nice to see the the two of them looking so happy and their baby was just adorable. And Risby eating in the car was downright comforting. It's good to know that some things don't change.
But I spent each scene waiting for the other shoe to drop. Something felt off, as though something evil was lurking behind every door.
I found myself talking to my TV as Wayne entered that dark basement looking for Osvaldo. He's not in law enforcement anymore. He's probably not armed and can't call for backup other than dialing 911.
When he found Osvaldo who had been tortured and killed, I couldn't tell if Wayne was reaching for his phone or his gun which was no longer on his hip.
Then Grace was sent the list: Osvaldo Ardiles, Salvador Palacios, Grace Van Pelt, Mike Riner, Kimball Cho, Mark Hochman, Claudia Chavez, Wayne Rigsby, Chris Kieffer, Teresa Lisbon, Deborah Chenier and Patrick Jane.
One small complaint. Jane's ID said Special Agent. Would he really have had such credentials as a consultant? I don't think so.
But what do all of these people have in common and why does it appear they're being hunted? It obviously links back to the CBI. Is it the Blake Association seeking retribution or is this something else entirely?
Whatever the answers, at this point I'm thrilled with the mystery and I can't wait to see more.
And I know it's snarky, but I have to know what you think, TV Fanatics. Tell me your thoughts on Grace's hair.

Split or crack (something) to form a long, narrow opening Definitions above taken from http://www.oxforddictionaries....
I hadn't thought of this alliteration before. Very interesting, thanks for posting it. It fits very well in how she is a "very complicating factor" in Jane and Lisbon's relationship, somehow creating a break between them. You might want to move over to the page for the new episode now. Once it's put up, we start commenting there. Wouldn't want to miss your ideas! :)
So she is named after her task given to her by Heller. To split apart Jane and Lisbon
I liked this episode a lot. I watched as a non-fanatic viewer would and found it immensely entertaining. I also watched as a fanatic and noticed:
1. Jane invited Lisbon to come with him in the Airstream and she turned him down flat. Didn't like it. (She also never liked his Citroen; called it a "contraption.") So Jane said, "Fischer it is then" and rolled his eyes like he might as well put up with Kim.
2. Jane was in full manipulation mode, getting into everyone's mind with those gifts. He is mainly doing this to psyche out Kim. He watched with great satisfaction as she played with that fairy wand. He was close to figuring her out!
3. Why was Lisbon shown mostly behind things. Is Robin pregnant? Is the need to hide that why she wouldn't go in the Airstream? One shot from the front was too shadowed to see a bump if there was one.
4. Loved the Airstream. Doesn't make sense for long distance travel due to gas prices but no matter. On TM everything is just a short drive away.
5. The episode looked like it was trying to appeal to as many demographic groups as possible. Big action scene to open, lots of clever humor, even the Airstream for the old baby boomers.
It sounds a fun episode. I wonder if Lisbon is angry with Jane as working in Texas is not what she thought it would be or if this is the start of her finding emotions difficult to cope with now she is back in contact with him, so she is starting to panic and run? Maybe Pike is who she will hide behind, as he means little to her? I wonder if Jane is lining up Lisbon to put her in Fischers job - he makes Kim look a fool and Lisbon look good. Won't be the first time he has manipulated situations to get the team he wants... I still think its odd that we have a Fischer and a Pike. Surely that must mean something, even if its only an in joke with the writers.
Can anyone tell me what the gifts were Jane gave to Cho and the computer geek?
He gave Cho some Mexican jumping beans and Wiley a Tamagotchi digital pet.
Thanks for that :-)
Well the optimism did not last long. Just read this morning that JJ returns in an episode and then, as far as people can tell, gets killed off. Great. They bring back familiar characters we like only for us to see them dead as soon as possible. At this rate there will be no one left by the end of the series that we like other than PJ. Presumably Kim will still be hanging on in there to the last, standing bewildered next to Jane, puzzled like us as to where all the cast have gone :-(
I don't think JJ is dead. Usually they show someone is dead by having their eyes open in a vacant stare. JJ had his eyes open but then closed them neatly. I think he is just wounded. Otherwise bringing him back just for this would be dumb and dumber. Getting him wounded will make him really want to help, not reluctantly as he was in this episode.
So hope you are right. Thanks for the encouraging reply.
Just watched the episode that follows the island. Kim really is not very nice (and the actress playing her is doing the role brilliantly, well done to her). I enjoyed Lisbon smirking when Kim tried to lay down the law to Jane. I enjoyed a lot of the interplay between PJ, Lisbon and Kim, as Kim looked much to be the looser. Shame that is being lost if they are sidelining Lisbon at the moment. Feeling more optimistic after seeing it, that the series could play out well.
Just Passing and others who are noticing this: Yes, it's beginning to look like there will be more to the Kim character than we might think. Go back to where Jane was grilling her about possible past sessions with a shrink. He said, That's a lie, but we'll get back to that later, then went on to other aspects of what she was doing. So Jane is no doubt extremely intrigued about what Kim might be hiding and he is going to find out what it is because that's the way he is. That may have him interacting with her more often than we'd like but it's just him psyching her out. Heller did say Kim would interfere in some way with the Jane-Lisbon relationship and it may be all about Jane's determination to learn the truth of her past. It's like when he couldn't let go of the Erica murder case because "She thinks I'm not smart enough to catch her." Jane never drops a mental challenge and Kim has presented one. Then again, maybe she did it on purpose and it's all part of a new kind of cat and mouse game.
Does the save our show voting thing actually make any difference to which shows are cancelled? I have never heard of it before so I have no idea if its just publicity or if it has ever actually worked to save something from being cancelled. Anyone know?
What it really does is raise the profile of the show a little as we compete well where we're not expected. Creates a little buzz. Also, the "belieber" community has been enlisted to vote for TM because it's that Bieber guy's favorite show. That's a large fandom that maybe didn't all know about that and now have heard of TM, maybe pick up a few new viewers that way. Who knows. But no direct effect on renewal probably.
I watched the stats for the save show thing last night and TM was running at 2nd place of 4. It and Beauty & Beast were both trending up and Dracula and Revolution were both trending down slowly.
Our newspaper has a weekly column about TV/film stuff. Someone occasionally asks about shows getting canceled. The answer always is that it's all about the bottom line. If the show doesn't have high enough ratings or is costing too much or isn't making as much money as some other show might, it's gone no matter how much the fans complain and beg.
Its interesting to know how much ratings are publicised in the USA and the publics awareness of them. They are mentioned here but usually only around Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Years or Easter Sunday as those were traditionally the day companies bought in big film releases - before there were so many channels and TV went downhill. Other than that you don't here much and you don't really hear of competitiveness between shows - you just sometimes get an announcement something is coming to an end, but usually you know that before the final series of something even runs so you get plenty of warning as a viewer and the plots tend to be more organised as the writers seem to have more awareness of how they need to pace things here. I think thats a good thing, as it improves plot lines and overall consistency for the viewers.
I think Jane said to Fischer something like
"Do you always cover up your guilt with anger" in some past episode. From the bits I have heard/seen she seems to be angry/hostile/tense a lot of the time. So is guilt causing her personality? Whats the big backstory going to be if so?
Just Passing I love your scenario about the FBI using Kim to separate Lisbon and Jane so they can get rid of Lisbon. It's perfect! Problem is, it's too perfect. We had a lot of perfect scenarios re Red John and look how that ended up, so if you're right it's an historical first! Now about Lisbon: I got to thinking more about what Simon said, in a serious way, on The Talk about the switchover in mid-season being "dangerous." Dangerous means a drop in ratings and no show wants that. So what would cause a drop in ratings and why would they take that chance? The show had to have been planning this all along because Pete mentioned the Airstream way back in S5. So it wasn't a sudden decision. It was well thought out. (Not as well as it should have been re RJ of course.) They had to be planning a Season 7 or they would never have bothered taking down CBI and building a whole new set just for half a season. Getting rid of all the old stuff suddenly was indeed "dangerous." So what did they get rid of in addition to the RJ story and the CBI set? Cast regulars Bertram, Stiles, Hafner, and Kirkland, plus Rigsby and Van Pelt (now on their way out). They don't even have CBI Ron any more. What was left? Only three cast members: Jane, Lisbon and Cho. That's all. Out of six years of episodes, only those three are left and none of the infrastructure. Not even Jane's Citroen. Not even that wonderful attic with it's metal barn door and bed on sawhorses. Even Jane's Malibu house is unlikely to ever be seen again. If the show saw the sudden total changeover as "dangerous" in terms of ratings, they would not dump Lisbon. They assured viewers she would stay by having Jane insist on her joining him as his top demand for returning - and making it non-negotiable. So Lisbon is not going to be phased out, just possibly have a different role to play. After all, she's not Jane's boss any more. Right now, someone has to stay at FBI to find out who is tracking and killing former CBI people. Who better than Lisbon to work with RigsPelt on this major crime problem. Kim and Abbott would not know where to start. Jane is needed to work with Kim on the week's procedural while Lisbon tracks down the new killer. So, bottom line, I don't see Lisbon being dumped because it seems clear that CBS and Warners want the show to survive at least one more season. They aren't going to make the massive dangerous changeover even more dangerous by dumping Lisbon. Ain't gonna happen.
I hope not. I wish they had not dumped some of the other stuff though - I would have liked to see something big happen with Visualize. They may be creeping some stuff back in over time - it looks like JJ will be back, which is great as I loved the role and the actor played it to perfection. I must admit that I like shows and books where more minor characters reappear and cross paths, just like happens in real life.
I definitely see the sense of your argument that there is no intent to phase Lisbon out. It sounds very like the way TM would do things. Never just tell us, but show us in some way if we're just clever enough to catch it and make the connection(s). Of course, they've had us making connections all along until we've driven ourselves crazy. But that was about RJ which was growing of its own volition, poorly supervised. Or Jisbon, which had to bend to the will they/ won't they formula and the required obstacles for it. But Jisbon is much simpler and your solution actually makes sense. Getting rid of Lisbon absolutely does not make sense, even though the apparent long scarcity of seeing her and especially Jane and her, coupled with the general unreliability of TM's "clues," is enough to easily shake my anxious little soul to its foundations. And it doesn't mean it won't happen. But I can see your reasoning it is not happening and they may have tried to telegraph it.
When I think of Jane and Kim getting together, I immediately think of the word YUCK!
He seems to know something about her with an absolute certainty and keeps hinting. We might need to look out for him leading her on at times, like he did with Loralei? Its important to remember how much he uses attraction and sex to manipulate.
I totally agree with you and I'm hoping he is turned off by her. I find it extremely interesting that Jane uses his sexuality the same way as a female does. I don't know if that is clever or just strange.
Men do it too. At my workplace we had a guy on placement for 2 weeks. After he left it turned out everyone thought he fancied them as individuals, he just played sex and flirting with everyone to get what he wanted. On top of that, turned out he was married too. It even worked on the couple of gay guys at our place. Mr Placement played everyone to get advancement in even that short time. One long term male employee used charm and 'innocence' (little boy) to get away with all sorts of things Use of sexuality for advancement is more common in men than most people realise, as they do not look for it. They expect it to be from women so overlook the same sort of behaviour in men or misfile it as being for non exploitive reasons because it does not fit in with what they believe to be 'male' behaviour.

Wisconsin Gov. Walker turns state into battleground for unions
By David Roeder Staff firstname.lastname@example.com February 20, 2011 9:38PM
Updated: September 24, 2012 6:25AM
In barely eight weeks, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a college dropout and Eagle Scout, has placed himself and his state in the center of a national storm.
Walker, a 43-year-old Republican, has divided his own state into partisan camps with his attempt to lower its budget deficit by raising benefit contributions by unionized employees and by erasing many rights under collective bargaining. He has made Wisconsin the focus of a debate over the influence unions should have when state treasuries are tapped out and taxpayers cry that they've had enough.
If there's a lesson in what he's doing, it's that voters ought to take candidate positions seriously. Sometimes, politicians really do what they say they will.
His administration has been controversial from its start in January. He turned down an $810 million federal gift for a high-speed rail line because he said Wisconsin couldn't afford its part of the costs. He partially privatized the state Department of Commerce, forcing some workers to reapply for their jobs.
And he made an overt appeal for Illinois businesses to cross the border after ruling Democrats here pushed through a 67 percent hike in the individual income tax rate and a 30 percent hike in the corporate tax rate. Walker's pitch glossed over Wisconsin's tax rates, which are higher than what most Illinoisans pay.
But it was his attack on the power of public-sector unions that brought demonstrators swarming to the state Capitol in Madison, with the crowd estimated at about 70,000 on Saturday. The protests continued for a sixth straight day Sunday and could get larger today because it's President's Day, a holiday for many union workers with direct interest in his plans. Counter demonstrators, many aligned with the Tea Party, also showed up to urge legislators not to waver on what they said was a popular cause.
Action on Walker's plan has been stymied because Senate Democrats left the chamber, denying the majority GOP a quorum to do anything.
Labor leaders said they were blindsided by Walker's proposal and that it amounts to union busting under the guise of fiscal responsibility. Supporters praise Walker for standing up to a powerful lobbying force.
His own campaign materials telegraphed his intention. "Don't spend more than you have" was his self-stated rule No. 1, and he emphasized personal details suggesting a tightwad streak. He drives a 1998 Saturn with 100,000 miles in it, packs a brown bag lunch ever day and, during his eight years as chief executive of Milwaukee County, he gave back a portion of his salary.
A resident of Wauwatosa, a town west of Milwaukee, Walker attended Marquette University but dropped out, saying he took a job instead. He served more than eight years in the state Assembly and in 2002 was elected as a reformer to lead normally Democratic Milwaukee County.
But if people are surprised by Walker's zeal, they haven't been paying attention, said Michael Grebe, a Milwaukee business leader and a friend of the governor's for 20 years. Grebe said Walker slashed payrolls and targeted unions for concessions as county executive. "He really does believe in skinny budgets and protecting the taxpayers. What he's doing now is completely consistent with that," Grebe said.
Nick Kaleba, spokesman for the Chicago Federation of Labor, said Walker has been unwilling to negotiate benefits with the unions. "This is really a unilateral move to hit the folks in their pocketbooks and also strip of them rights," Kaleba said. He said the CFL is sending a bus of about 80 people to today's protest and that Chicago-area sheetmetal workers also plan a solidarity showing.
They will encounter stubborn opposition. "The people who are not around the Capitol square are with us," said Wisconsin state Rep. Robin Vos, a Republican from Rochester and co-chair of the budget committee. "They may have a bunch around the square, but we've got the rest on our side."
For his own part, Walker told Fox News on Sunday that he had no intention to water down his proposals. "We're willing to take this as long as its takes because in the end we're doing the right thing," he said.
Walker said his demands are "modest" compared with labor concessions to private companies, and he said continued opposition will force deep layoffs in Wisconsin's state and local government.
He's chosen a high-stakes battle that politicians and public policy experts in Illinois are following closely. The shortfall he's whittling at represents 12.8 percent of Wisconsin's budget, said the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. The nonpartisan group said Illinois' current deficit is $15 billion, 45 percent of its budget.
Two questions linger: Can the mad protests of Madison spread to Illinois and is the fight making Walker a player in Republican presidential politics?
Democratic dominance in Illinois lessens the chance of a blowup with labor, some believe. But lawmakers have broached the idea of cutting benefits for current state employees, which has been off the table for previous discussions. One proposal would deny schoolteachers the right to strike.
Ralph Martire, executive director of the Chicago-based Center for Tax and Budget Accountability, said Wisconsin caused some of its own problems with a tax cut a few years ago. Walker, he said, is "demagoguing" the issue and playing to right-wing extremists.
Illinois state Sen. Matt Murphy, a Republican from the Palatine-based 27th District, said Walker is showing courage because "public sector unions are disproportionately powerful in state capitals right now." Murphy, who has advocated cuts in pension benefits for state workers, said Walker is raising his profile in the party.
"He may want to run his state for a while" and not make a bid in 2012, Murphy said. "But he's earning a lot of goodwill," he said.

Pronounced /iːlɛkˈtrɒnɪk ˈsɪnɪmə/
There's a lot of interest being shown within the film industry in this idea. The intention is to cut out the expensive and slow business of duplicating and distributing prints of feature films to cinemas (movie theaters in North America, though electronic cinema seems to be used on both sides of the Atlantic). Instead, it's proposed that films will be transmitted in digital form to cinemas using satellite technology and projected to the customers through an enhanced high-definition television system. In Europe, at least two consortia are working on such systems. The demonstration in London by one group recently was greatly enlivened when the managing director of a key member, the British image-processing firm, Snell and Wilcox, got up at the end and denounced it as "junk", being quoted in the press as saying "I am ashamed to be associated with this event. We can do ten times better. You people just don't understand digital processing", which came as a great embarrassment for British Telecom, who organised the event. The system is also known, perhaps inevitably, as cyber cinema.

Promises, Promises
This has not been a productive year for me with blog posting at all. One of my resolutions is to try to be better. Promise, promise, promise.
The other thing I promise is to not pretend I am Stiffy when she forgets to log out of her Facebook account on my iPad. Sure, I thought it was important to let the world know that Stiffy loves to sing and crochet, that she felt like tap dancing, and that she was looking to buy a used horse to ride to work. But still, it wasn't nice of me. Sorry Stiffy. And tell your aunt she can stop looking for that horse for you.
On a totally different topic, I received a very cool Christmas gift from Blondie. It's called a fitbit and it is the neatest gadget. I clip it to my pants and it tracks my steps, calories, and flights of stairs. There is an application to use in conjunction with the fitbit in which you can enter your weight, food, and water intake. Now here is the ultra cool thing it does - it tracks my sleep when I wear it at night. All the information is wirelessly uploaded to the application. So when I got up this morning, I could see that it took me 6 minutes to fall asleep, that I slept for 8 hours 6 minutes, and that I woke up 16 times. It is my incentive to move my ass a bit more (after January 1 of course).
Blondie also got me 4 bars of organic stone ground dark chocolate. Refer back to the above paragraph.
Now get out there and start hitting the post Christmas sales at the mall!

Does the monitor count midnite trips to the little girl's room as exercise?
How large is a "bar" of organic chocolate? Is it less fattening?
These are things I need to know.
But, I don't want to know why you call her Stiffy....

thanks for your heartfelt comment on my post! You are one of the folks that I am most happy to have connected with.
I'm not obsessed with wondering how that fitbit thingy works. How the hell does it know when you've fallen asleep? Must Google it.
Have a great 2012, CJ, and I look forward to a slight increase in your posts...I know you're a busy woman and all, buy your readings are missing you!

Most of us only go to a doctor or health professional when we are feeling ill. We usually seek treatment in order to alleviate pain or other symptoms of discomfort. The absence of these symptoms is often confused with the presence of health, but health is so much more. In addition to the absence of symptoms of discomfort, health is the presence of vitality and the ability to enjoy movement, expression and engagement in the experience of being alive. The practice of Chinese medicine is guided and directed by the laws and principles of nature; the same laws and principles that guide our universe. The bodies that we live in are still an infinite mystery but there are a few important things that we do know that can assist in our quest for health. We know that 75 percent of the surface of the earth is water which is also about the same amount of water contained in our bodies. We know that the earth is a living organism and that our bodies are composed of the same elements that make up the earth. Thus, it stands to reason that in order to sustain life we need both water and food that our bodies recognize as coming from the earth. Yet, I curiously spend more time encouraging patients to drink water and eat food resembling...well food...than any other thing I say in my office. When we do not process enough water over decades, chronic dehydration causes tissue to become brittle in every system of our bodies in ways that we cannot accurately measure or effectively repair. I wonder if our bodies even recognize some of the substances that we pass off to them as food and what happens to those mysterious combinations once they enter the system.
To seek treatment with a professional is a journey of exploration and awareness. If you seek treatment from a practitioner of Chinese medicine you will be asked to fill out a lengthy history form that lists possible symptoms that you are experiencing from every system of the body. That awareness assists you because the sooner you address a symptom and treat the underlying causes, the less treatment will be required and the sooner you will reach the optimal level of health that is currently possible for you. When we discuss that history, I am putting together a larger picture of relationships within you that have led to or are contributing to your current complaints - both the strengths and the weaknesses. When I look at your tongue and its coating, it shows me an immediate and long-term map of how your body processes food. I then take a pulse diagnosis at the position of both wrists which reveals the health levels of each of your organ systems and the relationships between them. This allows me to confirm your original complaints and gives me additional information which allows me to further fine-tune my assessment in order to more accurately and efficiently treat both the symptoms and underlying causes. As a student of the mind I know that the mind is often represented by an iceberg in the ocean with the conscious mind above the water representing about 10 percent, and the subconscious mind below the surface of the water representing about 90 percent of the information that is not in our conscious awareness. It stands to reason that the more we develop access to the hidden portion of our awareness, the more we will be able to notice and address changes in our health. Each of us is at a different stage of our health acquisition, with a different set of circumstances that we were either born with or have acquired along the way. Regardless of where we are on that journey, I believe that some attention to the symptoms that always lead a professional to the underlying causes will assist in slowing down our natural or unnatural processes of deterioration. More simply put, we live in our bodies 24/7 for the entirety of our lives. We have the ability to know more about ourselves than anyone else. If we put in the time and learn to pay attention to the signals the body is giving us, this awareness will serve us all of our lives. And what is better than simply feeling as well as we can for as long as we able to do so? Anita Alexandra is a licensed acupuncturist who practices at 751 Horizon Court, suite 202.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Los Angeles Lakers' general manager, Mitch Kupchak, hopes Dwight Howard decides to stay with the team.
Howard moved to the Lakers to great fanfare last summer from Orlando Magic but has endured an underwhelming campaign in Los Angeles, despite being a popular figure with who bet on NBA.
The 27-year-old center has the option of becoming a free agent on 1st July but says he has not yet made up his mind as to what the future holds.
If Howard decides to stay with the Lakers, he can sign a five-year $118million contract extension, while the most he would receive if he were to leave is a four-year deal worth $87.6million.
"I know in my heart that this is a place where I think he should be," Kupchak said to NBA betting news reporters. "We have a great legacy, great history of great players in this city dating back to when the franchise came here in 1960, and he certainly fits the mold."
However, Howard was non-committal when asked about his future, after the Lakers' play-off hopes had been ended by the San Antonio Spurs in the first round. He said: "I want to get away from everything and focus on me and making the decision for me and that's not happening today.
"At the end of the day, I can't control who likes me and who dislikes me, but I have the right to be happy."
A host of clubs are expected to be interested in signing Howard if he decides to head for pastures new, with the Dallas Mavericks, the Houston Rockets, and the Cleveland Cavaliers all reportedly interested in securing his services.
Meanwhile, Howard may have to endure an operation on the shoulder that has been troubling him throughout the season. He has missed six games because of the injury but he did not suffer any repercussions after having back surgery 12 months ago.
