10 teen-friendly things to do at Downtown Disney – for 10 bucks or less!
Found a little free time on your Disney World vacation and have a little bit of cash to spend? Believe it or not, a lot of teen-friendly fun can be had at Downtown Disney for less than ten dollars!
We've come up with a list of ten things at Downtown Disney World for teenagers to get you started.
Downtown Disney's West Side:
- Sit on the Front Porch at House of Blues and for the price of a soda (or two), you can enjoy the live music.
- Get a pretzel and a soda from Wetzel's Pretzels and enjoy the live music in the West End Plaza.
- See a movie at the AMC Theater. If you hit an early show with discounted tickets, you may even be able to get a soda, too.
- If you're feeling like something sweet, Disney's Candy Cauldron is a great place to stop in for a snack on the West Side. Snow White's Wicked Queen is the inspiration for this shop, and its theming is detailed down to prices that are marked in "Stones and Pebbles" instead of dollars and cents. You'll have a lot of choices in your price range. The shop is famous for it's "Build Your Own Apple" confections, with the basic caramel apple starting around $5.
Downtown Disney's Marketplace:
5. As you might guess, there is a whole lot of shopping offered at the Marketplace. Even if you only have ten dollars to spend, you'll be able to find a souvenir here. Some shops to explore that will have choices that won't bust your budget are:
- Basin – Bath salts, and bath bombs and fancy soaps, oh my! You can slow down and enjoy the scents while you shop.
- Disney's Days of Christmas – Get a souvenir Christmas ornament.
- Fun Finds – Everything in this store is $25 or less, but the store features a large "5 for $20" display wall. Items can be purchased individually for $4, so you can walk away with two new mementos of your trip for less than ten bucks!
- The Lego Store – You may not be in the market for new Legos, but you should definitely visit The Lego Imagination Center. This huge outdoor play area has thousands of LEGO blocks, and is a fun place to take a break from your shopping. There are also some impressive statues built of Legos that would make great backdrops for interesting vacation photos.
6. If it's time for a meal, you should head to Earl of Sandwich. A complete meal – sandwich, side and a drink – will be within your budget here!
7. An ice cream sundae or milkshake from the Ghirardelli Soda Fountain makes a great snack. If you enter through the chocolate shop side, you'll get a free chocolate sample, too!
8. Goofy's Candy Company is home of the "build-your-own" confection. You can dream up your own combination, or choose from a stunning selection of pre-made treats.
Pleasure Island:
9. You can order a snack, like irish style chips or onion rings, and a drink at Raglan Road and can enjoy Irish Dancers and Music from a live band.
10. Cookes of Dublin – You can grab a snack, like "Chips" or "Doh-Bars" (French fries or fried candy bars) and a drink. The seating is limited, but you can take your snack with you while you explore. On certain nights, you can enjoy the DJ dance party that's offered some evenings at the marketplace while you eat.
If evening entertainment at Downtown Disney will be a part of your plan, be sure you know the showtimes! You can check the times guide at www.wdwent.com to verify show times, or learn about special events during your visit. You can also call 407-WDW-2NITE for same day information.
"A Teen's Guide To Walt Disney World" also has a table of show times around Downtown Disney organized by day of the week. This list of things is just the beginning!

According to the latest market data from ABI Research, almost 35 million netbooks will be shipped by manufacturers in 2009.
The research group further noted that ASUS dominated the netbook category in 2007 when it debuted the Eee PC, and Acer made a big push in Q4 2008 to lead the second year.
"74 percent of 2008 netbook shipments bore the brands of three vendors: Acer, ASUS, and Samsung," says senior analyst Jeff Orr. "However, the rapid growth of netbooks as a second computer in developed markets will be eclipsed in coming years by vendors targeting developing nations and first Internet PCs at home."
The report says that while several netbook vendors are recognizable brands from the laptop and desktop computing markets, new vendors - including handset maker Nokia - have introduced netbooks and MIDs in an effort to participate in the growth of these segments. ABI Research forecasts UMDs to top 124 million systems shipped in 2011.
As netbook markets thrive, the mobile consumer electronics category, which is expected to account for only about two million device shipments this year, is forecast to top 50 million in 2014. This market is currently led by connected Personal Navigation Devices (PNDs) and eBook readers.

Review of Longview Care Home
This local home exceeded all of our expectations. The care they provided for my mother was outstanding. Mr and Mrs Patel lead their staff from a position of extensive knowledge and have built up a totally dedicated caring, hard working and friendly team around them. Having gained our permission to do so, as soon as my mother arrived they contacted her doctors to suggest a number of important changes that had dramatic impact on her progress. Whilst our recommendation might seem rather overstated we simply know that Longview was the perfect place for my mother and we have no reservations in recommending them. We wish Mr and Mrs Patel good fortune in their challenge to expand the home and upgrade some of their facilities. Their incredible energy will ensure success even though I know they will never reduce the care levels they provide during this period. Thank you so much Mr and Mrs Patel, Val, Ros and all of the support staff.

December 22, 2014
JANESVILLE, (AP) -- City crews in Janesville say a major water main has broken, causing water to shoot at least 30 feet in the air.
Officials responded Sunday about 1 p.m. to a report of water shooting out from the pipe.
The water reached higher than a nearby three-story building. The street had a gaping 10-foot-wide hole that was growing as the deluge continued. Water and rubble poured down a hill, and police blocked off streets as crews worked to shut down the main.
City water crew spokesman Randy Westby says it's not clear whether the break was related to ongoing problems with freezing pipes and deep frost in the ground. He said the water would have to be shut down before the cause could be investigated.

On Day 4 of 30 Days of Clean Eating, I wanted to share this easy Chicken and Kale Soup Recipe that I made. We had this for dinner and will eat it for lunch a couple of time as well this week.
Soups are a really great way to get lots of vegetables into your diet. It freezes well too which makes it the perfect go-to quick dinner if you are in a pinch instead of going out to a restaurant or grabbing take-out.
1 3 -4 lb Whole Chicken
1 lb of Baby Carrots, sliced
5 celery stalks, sliced
1 large onion, chopped
1 bag of fresh Kale, chopped (I find these around the leaf lettuces in my store)
3 Bay leaves
1 TBSP Poultry Seasoning
1/4 TSP Salt
1/2 TSP of Pepper
Great Northern White Beans, Optional (soak your own dry beans to avoid the sodium added to canned)
Brown Rice or Ditalini Pasta, Optional
1. Boil the whole chicken for about 40 minutes. (add enough water to cover the chicken)
2. Remove the chicken from broth and set aside to cool so you can remove the meat from the bones. Cut the meat into small chunks.
3. Skim off all the fat you can from the top of broth (I use a 1/2 cup measuring cup for my scooping)
4. Add remaining ingredients. Celery, Carrots, Kale, Bay Leaves, Poultry Seasoning, salt and pepper.
5. Cook for 30 mins – 1 hour
6. Then add back the chicken.
7. Cook for 1 more hour or until veggies are tender.

Save the Bloedel Conservatory Photowalk
The No Compacts Allowed! Facebook group recently did a daytime photowalk at the Bloedel Conservatory at Queen Elizabeth Park here in Vancouver. What I didn't know until we got there, was that the Vancouver's Park Board is planning on closing down the Conservatory due to budget cuts and such. They too have a Facebook group called Save The Blodel Conservatory.
The Bloedel Conservatory is home to many types of tropical plants as well as some awesome exotic birds. It's a great way to spend part of the day looking around at the various plant and animal life they have. This photowalk will be the second time I've actually gone, the previous time was with my cousin Brennan. Admission into the conservatory is $5 and is well worth the money.
As many of you probably have noticed, I'm not in doing floral shots, but I've come to realize perhaps I should take more photos of the areas I am in while playing with my camera. I know Robyn was mentioning how I didn't take many photos of the rain forest while in Costa Rica, and if I think about it, I feel bad I didn't do it. So here is a photo of the vegetation!
Gus let me borrow his Canon EF-S 60mm 2.8 Macro lens too, if I bought my regular tripod I might have gotten some decent shots of things though. It's hard to keep a camera steady when you're manually focusing on items no larger than your pinkie nail.
I'm always up for taking photos of birds, I guess I am a birder at heart. Perhaps one day I'll be able to have enough spare money to afford a $6000 400mm prime lens for some better birding photos. Or I could look at the Canon EF 100-400 f5.6 IS lens in the mean time.
We hung out a while inside the Bloedel Conservatory, I think I completed about 4 or 5 laps around the place. Had to dodge a few amount of people to as it was fairly busy. We headed outside as the rain stopped and headed over to the fountain (which I don't remember being there last time I was there).
As per usual the photowalk was a lot of fun, some new people came out and some of the regulars came out and we all enjoyed ourselves. You can check out the No Compacts Allowed! Flickr Group for more photos from other people (as well as myself).
If you want to join us at our next photowalk, it will be on January 17th (Sunday) from 17:00 to 20:00 for our evening/night photowalk (weather permitting). It looks like we might head over to Chinatown in Vancouver.
Both comments and trackbacks are currently closed.

I spent my Sat building a snowcave and doing other shenanigans it was rad. Hoping to make it to the next photo walk.
that sucks that they are closing…
Some days I wish I had camera that wasn't a compact.
They are closing? Really? Nooo! I used to go there as a kid ALL the time… booo.
I hope they manage to save it.

The Lombardy region
One of Italy's largest regions, Lombardy lies in the north of the country, sharing a border with Switzerland.
Stretching from the Alps to the lowlands of the Po Valley, it is home to a wide range of landscapes, including the breathtaking mountain chain that boasts the Valchiavenna, Valtellina and the Camonica Valley.
Winter sports enthusiasts will find no lack of state-of-the-art facilities in Lombardy, for example in the extremely popular resorts of Tonale, Bormio, Livigno and Madesimo.
Another aspect that defines the region is its expanse of rolling hills that encompass the distinctive Franciacorta area, famous for its vineyards and wine production. The charm of the great lakes is a great tourist draw, attracting visitors to Sirmione and other well known destinations dotting the western coast of Lake Garda, while Lake Como and Lake Maggiore are no less beautiful, surrounded as they are by stately homes, parks and picturesque small towns.
The region is also characterized by the great flat tracts of the Po Valley lowlands, covered by shimmering mirrors of water and rice paddies: this is the typical landscape of Lomellina, the land of rice harvesters, steeped in tradition.
The region has countless other distinctive facets. Lombardy, aided by its geographic position and fertile soil, will captivate you - nature, history, art and culture marry in harmony with innovation, technology, fashion, entertainment, and a contemporary outlook.
The region comprises the provinces of Bergamo, Brescia, Como, Cremona, Lecco, Lodi, Mantua, Milan (regional capital), Monza and Brianza, Pavia, Sondrio and Varese.
Large, lively and industrious, the Province of Milan is the second most populous in Italy. Its territory extends over a stretch of the Po Valley and includes the River Ticino to the west, and the River Adda to the east. It is shaped by its waterways: river and canals that traverse it and sometimes border it, from the Lambro and Olana Rivers to the numerous canals, the Navigli Milanesi, ancient links between the area's major water runs. These runs link farmsteads and villages like that of Corneliano Bertario with the Castello Borromeo Castle; and ancient noble villas, such as the Inzago Villa near the Naviglio Martesana, to the Canale Villoresi, thought to be the longest man-made canal in Italy. The Villoresi marks the natural southern border of Brianza, an area in Lombardy noted for its mountains, lakes and plains.
The territory of Milan contains six regional natural parks: Parco Adda Nord, Parco Agricolo Sud Milano, Parco delle Groane, Parco Nord Milano, Parco della Valle del Lambro and the Parco Lombardo della Valle del Ticino.
Half the Province of Milan is agricultural and flood plain, and most of it is protected by reserves. Each of these habitats features a variety of natural, country and architectural landscapes of great interest.
Reassessment of the artistic heritage of Milan and its province eventually led to a better understanding of the historical periods during which the city was planned and developed, and its most important monuments erected. Roman-era Milan, for instance (or Mediolanum, as it was known in Antiquity), is hidden within museums, inside churches, palaces, and in the underground excavations, often found squeezed between today's structures.
The city's major period of development was the Renaissance, which coincided with princely rule of Milan. During this period, the Sforzesco Castle and the Filarete Tower were built, with Parco Sempione just behind, in the heart of the city and in view of the Cathedral, a great symbol of Milan's power at the time, and a fine example of the Gothic style. Next to Piazza Duomo is the Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery, considered the "living room" of Milan for its elegance and for interior shops. One of the best-known buildings is the neo-classical Palazzo Reale, alongside the Cathedral, now hosting art exhibitions. Not far away is the Ambrosiana Library and Painting Gallery, with its rich collection of canvases by great artists such as Caravaggio, Titian, and Raphael. Then, the Brera Gallery, in the eponymous district, hosts another major collection of Italian paintings, including masterpieces the caliber of the Dead Christ by Andrea Mantenga. The Poldi Pezzoli Museum, rather, is regarded as one of the largest museums in Europe for number of works. Hidden away is Santa Maria delle Grazie, a church bearing the work of Bramante (in the church and old sacristy) and Leonardo da Vinci, whose beloved The Last Supper is housed in the refectory of the convent annexed to the church.
Marrying culture and sports, and certainly one of the city's most iconic structures, is Milan's San Siro Stadium, that hosts the first and only Museum inside a soccer stadium. The Museum narrates the history of Milan's two teams, Inter and Milan, by way of singular "relics" from the sport's history.
So much artistic wealth should not overshadow the nearby towns in the rest of the Province, boasting a few artistic treasures of their own: castles, villas, abbeys and palaces. One of the most important is Monza with its Villa Reale, its park and its Cathedral.
In Corbetta, the Casa Corbellino or Castelletto is a typical example of a building constructed over the remains of a castle, later restored and expanded. In Novate Milanese, the Casa de' Busti and the Oratory of Saints Nazaro and Celso (Gesiò) are typical examples of a noble residence and an oratory dating back to the 16th Century. Of great interest in Abbiategrasso is the Church of Santa Maria Nuova, whose facade is adorned with the large porticoes designed by Bramante. Just a few miles away, on high ground dominating the Ticino Valley, stands the Abbey of Morimondo, an exemplar of fine Cistercian architecture from the 12th Century.?
Milan's Medieval abbeys are also unique draws: Chiaravalle and Morimondo of the Cistercian order, Viboldone and Mirasole of the Humiliati order. North of the regional capital, the elegant villas offer parks and nymphaeums of incomparable beauty; to the east of the city, on the River Adda, art meets nature and offers magnificent examples of industrial architecture amidst the natural surroundings: the hydroelectric power station of Taccani at Trezzo Sull'Adda is one of these.
Castles are another piece of the territorial assets. The Castello Borromeo d'Adda stands on the river banks of the Muzza at Cassano d'Adda, and dates from the 9th Century; restoration works here have even uncovered frescoes from the school of Giotto. In Legnano, the Castello di San Giorgio was built atop a pre-existing Augustinian convent in the 13th Century. In Cusago, the Visconti Castle is regarded as a major example of castle architecture in the region. And finally, in the zone south of Milan reside San Colombano al Lambro and the Castello Belgioioso, in addition to Casalpusterlengo, with its crenellated Tower of Pusterla.
Milan is most known for industry, finance and fashion, but a greener Milan of Arcadian beauty absolutely exists: think winding rivers, e.g. the Adda that forms rapids and canyons in the northern area of Trezzo; and the Ticino, traversing wood-abundant lands and small islands, and protected by the Natural Freshwater Park, perhaps the largest in Europe. The enitre zone is even crossed by channeled, often subterranean waters first created by monks from the Middle Ages, whose labor improved the Po River Valley. Later, Leonardo Da Vinci lived here during the Sforzas' dominance, inventing a system - the famous Navigli Milanesi - to regulate the canals' water levels and make them navigable.

Photo #: S-511-56
"6" A.A. Cruiser - 6 Twin Turrets - Scheme "F""
(an initial effort, submitted in revised form)
Preliminary design plan prepared for the General Board during the development of a light cruiser with rapid-firing 6"/47 anti-aircraft guns, which ultimately became the Worcester (CL-144) class.
This plan, dated 23 December 1942, is for a 640-foot (waterline length), 12,850 (standard displacement) ship with twelve main battery guns. It was cancelled before submission and a revised "Scheme F" was prepared under date of 30 December 1942 (see Photo # S-511-57).
Scale of the original drawings is 1/32" = 1'.
The original plan is in the 1939-1944 "Spring Styles Book" held by the Naval Historical Center.

Beards vs. Bow Ties: Which is more "immodest" or attention drawing?

If you were on a hiring panel for a new Chair of the Federal Reserve Board, would either a neatly trimmed beard or a bow tie even register on your dress and grooming "radar"?
I'm talking Ben Bernanke, (current Chairman of the Fed)
Richard Abrahamson, Secretary/Treasurer of the WTB&TS of Pennsylvania since 2000. I looked all over and couldn't find a picture of him, but he's famous for his bow ties. He probably sleeps with one on.
(For the record, this isn't Richard Abrahamson)
You can probably guess where I'd go with this if talking to local elders.

I am always turned off by bowties they look childish in my opinion. Why do you think Pee Wee Herman has one? But I also pretty much hate neckties as well. I only wear one when I have too. Beards look fine I like the short ones especially. stuck in

I think both should be fine! But I see where you're going. Bow ties are more distracting. The JWs really need to get over their fear of the hippies and their beards. Beards and goatees are worn by respectable men all over the world.
If they really want to keep an outlaw on facial hair how 'bout just outlawing facial hair on women?

I don't know... I've seen some pretty decent facial hair on sisters ... I mean, if you were standing 10 ft away, you could see... well, at least a good shadow. :)

I'm not gonna dig on bowties because it's just my opinion some people on this board me like them. But all the J-dubbs I've ever known who wear bow-ties were just basically attention whores. Oooooohhh look at me! I'm different!
Maybe it's just a sub-conscience act of desparation to try to express individuality. Trying to look different from the other cattle being led to the slaughter, who knows. Made some of these cats look like they were Muslims.

Mr. Falcon: "Maybe it's just a sub-conscience act of desparation to try to express individuality."
I think you've nailed it in JW world.
JW #1: "Do you know Bro Abrahamson from Bethel?"
JW #2: Blank stare.
JW #1: "You know, he works in the Treasurer's office and always wears a bow tie."
JW #2: "Oh, yeah! I know him."

Occasonally my brother wears a bow tie. He looks like a Nation of Islam member when he does it.

If I were sitting on an interview panel for someone applying for a job that called for conservative business attire, both a beard and a bow tie would register on my radar.
Let's make it a 1 to 10 scale.
1 = Uber conservative: Dark suit, white shirt, boring tie, clean shaven, short neatly trimmed hair, no visible tats or piercings.
10 = Crazy time: Clown suit, multiple tats, piercings, gauging, hair dyed all colors of the rainbow.
On this scale, a beard or bow tie would probably bump the guy up to a 1.5 or a 2. But that just shows a bit of individuality, IMO. It would still be considered acceptable business attire. And whatever number you attach to it, I think bow ties are just a tiny bit (not much) more attention-drawing than beards in current American society.
Anyone from other countries want to weigh in?

I sometimes wear a full beard. I sometimes wear a bow tie. Bow ties are useful. You never forget someone in a bow tie.

Thanks to everyone for the replies so far.
I just remembered another Bethel-approved badge of individuality, but you've gotta have the genes for it:
Max Larson & Don Adams really sport some doozies. They certainly could trim them down, but nooooooo. They let those bad boys grow as far as God predetermined they should go.
Here's Don Adams,
Max Larson's are, IMO, the biggest in Bethel, but I couldn't find a decent-sized photo of him.

In my old congregation, one of our elders (one of the kind ones) was an old-school architect who went stariught from the office to the meetings and he always wore bow ties because when he started out drafting was with ink on paper and regular ties smeared the drawings and got stained. When I'd see him downtown he was usually with other architects and many of the older ones wore bow ties too so for him it wasn't a fashion statement or to be "different". To him they were completely normal. He stepped down after a new superfine apostle CO told him the tie made it hard for the cong to concentrate on what he was saying, which really said more about HIM than it said about the elder or the congregation since we'd all been listening to Br Bowtie for years without any problem. Maybe the CO should have paid more attention to the brother's parts and less to his clothes. I say that because as far as I know Br Bowtie is still going to the meetings (altho he never bothered to try to get back his "Privilege" of service) and the superfine CO ended up running off with aniother elder's wife and getting DF'd.

Broken City Labs: Using public art for urban renewal
Can public art projects effectively draw attention to areas of a city that need change? Cyclists from Broken City Labs believe so: they set up these large, brightly-colored letters reading "MAKE THIS BETTER" to call attention to Ontario's "dead-zone" neighborhood known as "Ripper's Valley" (as in Jack the Ripper). "There are numerous complications in working publicly, but that is part of what makes it fun," said Justin Langlois, the group's Research Director. The group's website documents the immensity of research that the group puts into selecting a space for a project and building the art — art that they lose control of as soon as it is installed. "As much of what we do is temporarily sited and installed, the complexities in the work come from the time spent researching the place ahead of time and allowing artifacts like photos to guide a viewing and experience of the work after the fact," Langlois said.
As viewers do not know who precisely is commanding "Make This Better," the anonymity and temporary nature of the work implies communal responsibility, rather than individual opinion. "We're hoping that Make This Better will initiate a dialogue about not only the places that we, as a community, could take on together, but about who exactly should make this better — is it the responsibility of the city, the neighborhood, or even just one person?" Langlois asked.
"Make This Better" is part of an ongoing series of installations in needy areas of Windsor. Past work from Broken City Labs included the Fall 2009 screening of the giant word "WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER" on the Chrysler building in Windsor, where the message faced not only the city of Windsor but its neighboring city of Detroit. Broken City Labs has been called "an art therapy collective for a city in need of triage" and has been presenting work in Windsor since 2008.
"We don't work on behalf of the community, we work as community members," Langlois stressed – community members who hope their (literally) large-scale work will bring other community members into a larger conversation.

Adam Baldwin to Reunite with Nathan Fillion on Castleby Matt Richenthal at . Comments
ABC is about to host a Firefly reunion.
Network sources confirm to TV Guide Magazine that Adam Baldwin - most recently known for Chuck, but Jayne Cobb to Nathan Fillion's Mal Reynolds on the aforementioned cult favorite - will guest star this spring on Castle as a detective named Ethan Slaughter.
Viewers can expect these two to team up, as Slaughter shows Castle a dirty side of the law and, through their alliance, places the show's title character in danger.
Baldwin is only booked for one episode at the moment.
Matt Richenthal is the Editor in Chief of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Twitter and on Google+.Tags: Casting News, Adam Baldwin, Spoilers, Castle
Great news! It'd be nice if he could be a recurring character, assuming he is not the bad-guy-of-the week, of course. They are very funny together.

Stanley Frank Musial
Inducted - Tuesday, September 12, 2000
Sculptor: William J. Williams
Where is Stanley Frank Musial in the Hall of Famous Missourians?
In the minds of sports fans everywhere, Stan Musial, the Cardinals and St. Louis are forever linked. His Major League career, all with the Cardinals, lasted from 1941 through 1963. In 1968, a statue of Musial was dedicated at Busch Stadium.
Musial started baseball with the Cardinals as a pitcher, but in 1941 was converted to an outfielder and first baseman because of an arm injury. Musial was nicknamed "The Man" by fans of the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1946 after he returned from naval duty in World War II.
During his career, Musial held 7 National League batting titles, received 3 Most Valuable Player Awards, and was named to 24 All Star Teams. In 1957, Sports Illustrated named him "Sportsman of the Year" and The Sporting News honored him as "Player of the Decade" for the years between 1946 and 1956. At retirement, Musial held 17 Major League, 29 National League and 9 All Star Game records. He was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1969. He is a member of the All Century Team. Musial has been inducted into the St. Louis Hall of Fame, the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, the Polish National Hall of Fame, the Pennsylvania Hall of Fame and the Major League Hall of Fame.
After his retirement as an active player in 1963, Musial served a stint as General Manager and Senior Vice president of the St. Louis Cardinals. He was an honorary member of the board of the St. Louis Rams. He acted as Director of the Professional Baseball Players of America. He also chaired the President's Council on Physical Fitness under President Lyndon Johnson, and for 20 years, the Crippled Children's Society of St. Louis. He served on boards of directors of the U.S.O., the Urological Research Foundation, and Shelter the Children. He also served as president of Stan the Man, Inc.

If you run into this article while searching on google, I guess that you are looking for a way to promote your product or service online. Congrats! You've come to the right place. Being a Moondancer and an Internet Marketer, I am here to offer you a very unique service: dance like Michael Jackson to promote your product or service.
You may wonder why my service is unique and how to use it to promote?
Well, youtube marketing is very important in your marketing campaign. While there are millions of videos floating on the cyber world, it is important to find an original, unique video which can catch viewers' attention. Michael Jackson's dance moves are definitely unique! The problem is there are not so many dancers who can put the MJ's spirit within dance moves. Being a Moondancer for more than 10 years, I'm confident my Moondancing gig on Fiverr will offer you the best dancing performance you can find.
Basically, I can hold a sign or add a title at the beginning or the end of the video. For only 5$, you can have a very unique Moondancing video to upload on your own youtube channel or website to catch viewers' attention.
Or keep reading…
These are some features of my Moondancing gig:
– The one and only professional Michael Jackson dance style gig on Fiverr.
– Dance to any songs, even not Michael Jackson's.
– Unique dancing style: Although Michael Jackson is the greatest inspiration in my dancing style, my Moondancing goes beyond copying.
– Maximum time to complete an order is 7 days, but it's just in case I am overloaded with orders. Normally it only takes 2-3 days for me to finish an order.
However, there are also something that I must clarify:
– I only dance up to 2 minute per order. If your song is longer than 2 minute, please order more gigs.
– My room is not big so the background in the video is the only choice. I may hire a small studio with a white background to dance if you really need (extra fee required).
Anyway, I will try my best to offer the best and most unique dancing video to promote your product or service.
Last but not least, you may want to read buyers' testimonials on my Moondancing skill to decide for yourself.
If you are interested in my gig, don't hesitate, check out my profile on Fiverr, click the button "Order Now" on my Moondancing gig, and experience the magic of Michael Jackon's dance moves!

About Mary Alice Murphy
Part I - History
Thanks to more than 30 years of writing news/press releases for volunteer organizations and submitting them to newspapers, in 2001, I was hired as a columnist and reporter/photographer for the Silver City Daily Press in Silver City, NM.
Part 2 - Recent Past
In 2007, I ceased working in the SCDP office and began a freelance career writing for the Daily Press and other publications. I had great fun and continued my career.
Part 3 - 2010
As of Sept. 1, 2010, I was "laid off" from the SCDP. It "fired up" my intention to continue to inform the local public of Grant County with my somewhat frequent articles. Since I would have no support from a newspaper, I decided to begin my own online e-newspaper to report meetings and features in Grant County that I had covered for the past nine years.
Part 4-Today
The Beat continues to bring you the most comprehensive and factual news it can.
Thanks to all the readers who continue to read and rely on the Beat's news, as readership continues to increase.

When you replaced the plugs did you notice if the plugs where coated in oil. If you have oil getting into the spark plug tubes you will need to replace the valve cover gaskets to fix your problem and then pull the plugs out and put them back in to remove the oil in the spark plug tubes. This is a common problem on many vehicles that I run into.
Replygvanw011, April 05, 2012, 09:18Rookie
No oil, valve cover gaskets replaced, as well as other items in the kit. No residue in tubes. Removed coil springs cleaned tested strength, replaced. Injectors not dirty, additive added to fuel.

What are the codes that are showing up now since all this work has been done. Is it just the misfire codes or are there other codes showing up. Also what codes were there when the problem started before you did all the work you have done to it so far.

Alright, I think I may have a silly question, but here it goes? What goes into an office in a bag? How do you set one up?
I am in the process of building my Control Journal. Step by step. But what are the steps to building an Office in a Bag?
I love the idea I'm just not sure how to pull it off. Your testimonial today helped. But I could sure use a few pointers. I'd like to get my desk in order so I am ready for end of the year Tax stuff before March/April next year. I have begun to work 15 minutes at a time on filing my piles now instead of the week before my tax appointment. Miracles never cease to happen! Thanks for all of your inspiration.
Fluttering in the Desert
Dear Fluttering in Desert,
I want you to think of the Office in a Bag as a portable desk. Imagine that you are sitting in a doctor's office waiting for hours. What would you need if you wanted to send a card?
You would need …..
1. A greeting card
2. A pen
3. A stamp
Let say you needed to make a grocery list.
You would need ……
4. A Pencil
5. A Piece of paper or a notepad
Let's say you want to pay some bills.
You would need……
6. Your bills
7. More stamps
8. Envelopes
9. A small calculator
10. Your checkbook
Let's say you want to draw a scale drawing of your living room to play with rearranging your furniture.
You might need……..
11. A little ruler
12. Some Graph Paper

Here are a few more things you might need.

Keep it to a minimum because we can get too much in them before we know it.

- I almost made it work. The Guardians were more than I could ever have hoped for! But the universe is also more dangerous than I ever imagined! Look around! This is the kind of thing that can happen! The galaxy doesn't need guardians! It doesn't need brave souls! If it's going to survive another one of these, it's going to need absolute bad-asses! It's going to need the biggest guns of all! Cosmic heavy hitters as scary as the menaces they have to face! It's going to need flarking annihilators!
- -- Star-Lord src
Early History
Peter Quill, alias Star-Lord, was born during an unusual astronomical phenomenon when many of the planets aligned. Seeing no resemblance, the man who believed he was Quill's father angrily accused his wife Meredith of infidelity and attempts to kill the infant, but died of a sudden heart attack. Quill was raised by his single mother, Meredith.
One day Peter returned home, bruised from trying to stop a bully. As he was washing up for dinner, his mother saw a bright light and two Badoon aliens emerged. Vowing to end the 'Spartoi bloodline', they killed Meredith. After Quill saw the aliens and his dead mother, he panicked and ran. As the aliens pursued, he grabbed a shotgun and managed to kill them with it. He then found a mysterious device in a closet. Seeing a bright light he fled the house, just before the alien ship destroyed it.[1]
Quill was placed in an orphanage but escaped and eventually became a trainee NASA astronaut. An alien entity called the Master of the Sun eventually visited the space station that Quill and other astronauts were currently inhabiting, and offered the mantle of Star Lord (an interplanetary policeman) to a worthy candidate, Quill volunteered, but was rejected in favor of a colleague he once treated badly.
Quill was outraged, and NASA ordered his return to Earth and discharge for his conduct. Peter, however, stole a scoutship, and on returning to the space station took his colleague's place. Quill was then chosen to become Star-Lord, with the Master of the Sun first creating an illusion in which he was able to find and kill the aliens that murdered his mother to free him of his past. Equipped with a sentient vessel called "Ship", Quill commenced his role as Star-Lord.[2]
It was later revealed that Peter Quill's father is Jason of Spartax, the second son of the galactic Emperor who acted as Star-Lord before him.[3]
Star-Lord encountered the former Herald of Galactus the Fallen One, who was trying to starve his former master by destroying all planets he could feed on, and was almost killed in his first battle with the entity, Ship discovered that the energy generated from destroying planets harmed the Fallen One. Sacrificing a little Kree lunar colony near a Kree planet the Fallen One was going to destroy, Ship was able to harness that energy and defeated the entity (Star-Lord's vessel "Ship" was destroyed doing it). Star-Lord turned the Fallen one and himself to the Nova Corps for Galactic level genocide. While there were divided thoughts about his choice, the pair were subsequently imprisoned in the intergalactic prison the Kyln.[4] Star-Lord was freed by the hero Nova during the Annihilation and aided in the war against villain Annihilus.[5] He later acted as military adviser to the Kree general Ronan the Accuser against the invading alien race the Phalanx.[6] When the Kree homeworld of Hala was conquered by the Phalanx, he led a band of rebels against the invaders until the war was over.[7].
Guardians of the Galaxy
After Ultron and the Phalanx were defeated, Star-Lord formed the new Guardians of the Galaxy. The universe was in a very fragile state after the two Annihilation events and fissures in reality were beginning to form and spread. In order to prevent the collapse of the universe he had Mantis telepathically nudge Adam Warlock, Phyla-Vell, Rocket Raccoon, Drax and Gamora into joining his team [8]. This motley crew set up base in the severed head of a Celestial called Knowhere. When Star-Lord's deception was found out everyone but Mantis quit the team in disgust and set off on their own quests.
Star-Lord responded to a Kree summons and returned to the Kree homeworld to speak with Ronan. Upon arrival he is shocked to see that they are rebuilding the Phalanx Spire to protect Kree space, he argued with Ronan and then he was thrown into the Negative Zone. He was then forced into helping the newly appointed ruler of the Negative Zone, King Blastaar, into taking over the Superprison 42 so he could gain access to their portal to earth.
Star-Lord was then sent into 42 to convince them to open the door and surrender. Once inside he spoke with the unofficial leaders of 42 and told them not to surrender but only Jack Flag agreed with him, they tried to stop them but the doors were opened and Blastaar's army was unleashed; after learning of his betrayal Blastaar sent his men to find and kill Star-Lord. Running for their lives, Star-Lord and Jack Flag located a telepath in 42 to ask the Guardians for help and they were able to escape before being killed by Blastaar.
War of Kings
Once he returned to Knowhere, he found that Rocket had assembled a new team, consisting of Major Victory, Bugman, Groot and Mantis. Eventually, the other members returned as well, Adam and Gamora returning in order to still help the universe, and Drax and Phyla returning with the newly resurrected Moondragon.
Their first order was to split up and attempt to end the War of Kings, which would cause irreparable damage to the fabric of the universe. Peter led his team to Hala to speak with the Inhumans. Even after telling them the dangers of their war, they refused. Phyla, who now called herself Martyr, had other ideas of negotiating and took Crystal hostage. Star-Lord could not get her to release her prisoner and they were teleported back to Knowhere.
Upon their return, they soon found themselves in the middle of a battle with the Inhumans and the Imperial Guard, who had followed the other team back. After rescuing Crystal, the Inhumans left and the Guardians were left to face the Imperial Guard, who wished to take over the station. In the process of the battle, Starhawk escaped her captivity and took Star-Lord, Mantis, Bug, Jack Flag and Cosmo to her future.
In Starhawk's bleak future, she was finally able to convince them what she had been saying all along was true. A massive fissure was consuming the universe, and it had to be stopped. The two Guardians teams worked together to try to send a message back through time to warn that the fissure, known as the Fault, was actually caused during the War of Kings by Black Bolt.
With their time machine broken, they formed a new plan. The Badoon, who know ruled what little was left of the universe, had enslaved the Celestials and created what was called the Celestial Engine, used to keep the fissure at bay. They send back their message and break the alignment of the Celestial Engine, causing the destruction of this future.
To Star-Lord's surprise, this did not kill them. They found themselves in a different time with a different set of Guardians. Another surprise: he was old enough to be his own grandfather. The Starhawk of this future received messages from his previous selves and learned the truth. The team was adrift in time, which was causing their changes as well. They formed a plan to find a time machine under Avengers Mansion, but once they got there they slipped through time once again. And again. And again.
They finally arrived at an alternate future, one ruled by the Magus and the Universal Church of Truth. While battling the members of the Church, they had an unexpected guest: Kang the Conqueror. He returned them to their normal states and took them to his headquarters in limbo. He explained that all futures were becoming Magus futures and it was up to Star-Lord to stop this from happening.
Kang gave Peter a Cosmic Cube and told him that future must be saved at all costs. They were sent back to moments before Adam would turn into the Magus while repairing the Fault. Star-Lord tried to talk to Adam, but the damage had been done. He had overlapped the time lines and essentially he had been the Magus for months.
Adam transformed and began his battle with the Guardians, who were all reunited. After killing Major Victory, Mantis, Cosmo, Gamora and Phyla, Star-Lord was finally able to grab the Cube and use it to revert the Magus back to Adam. Adam told him that he must finish him, and to his own regret, Star-Lord shot and killed his friend. The universe had been saved, but the price was very high.
Thanos Imperative
Adam managed to avoid death however and Magus continued in his service to his Lord Mar-Vel, a Mar-Vel from a universe where death had lost and life had triumphed, resulting in a universe of immortal monsters. When the denizens of Lord Mar-Vel's universe, the Cancerverse came out of the fault in order to consume the 616 universe as well, Peter Quill, together with the rest of the Guardians, Nova and Thanos traveled into the Cancerverse in order to stop Mar-Vel and the Old Ones whom Mar-Vel served. Drax however was driven mad due to the fact that he was an avatar of life in a universe where life had triumphed, and tried to kill Thanos who in turn vaporized him. The Guardians and Thanos met up with the Machine Resistance, the unliving robotic denizens of the Cancerverse who had been immune to Mar-Vel's conversion of his universe and had fought to stop him ever since. They informed Thanos and the Guardians that Mar-Vel was planning a Necropsy, in which he would kill the Avatar of Death (Thanos) thus killing Death itself. Thanos seemed to betray the Guardians when he submitted to Mar-Vel, but when Mar-Vel ran him through with a sword, Death appeared and due to being summoned by Thanos killed the entire Cancerverse and forced the Old Ones into a coma that would last a very long time. Death however refused to take Thanos with her and he flew into a rage, vowing to destroy the Universe. Peter and Nova however, volunteered to distract him, managing to keep him in the Cancerverse long enough for it to collapse and kill all three of them. The survivors hailed Peter and Nova as heroes and a statue was erected in their honor on Kree-Lar.
Thanos, Star-Lord and Nova remained in the Cancerverse fighting over the Cosmic Cube. A returned Drax joined the brawl against the Mad Titan. After Star-Lord starting losing control over the Cube, Thanos offered Quill to give him the Cube, as he could control it, to get back to Earth-616.[9] However, Star-Lord killed Thanos with it. As Thanos reappeared and killed Star-Lord from behind, who also returned, the heroes discovered death was impossible in the Cancerverse, as one would merely respawn in another location.
After killing Thanos for a third time, the heroes' discussion on what to do was interrupted by the arrival of the Cancerverse's Revengers. Following an extremely long battle, the Revengers got hold of the Cosmic Cube.[10] Thanos managed to retrieve the Cube and defeat the Revengers, but was soon opposed by Drax, Quill and Nova. As the Mad Titan was distracted by Drax, Nova picked up the Cosmic Cube, and decided to use it along with the Nova Force to open a gate to Earth-616, however, Rider couldn't come as he was acting as the door between the two universes. As his last wish, Nova asked Peter not to tell Gamora about this event, as it would devastate her.
Peter Quill, Drax and Thanos were then returned to Earth-616.[11]
Star-Lord and Drax reuinted with the other Guardians and, they aided the Avengers to fight Thanos, who had once again targeted Earth following his return. Thanos managed to get a Cosmic Cube from the Army, with which he escaped to Moord, the homeland of the Badoon. The Guardians arrived at the Avengers Tower and informed the Avengers about the situation.[12] They joined the Guardians to fight Thanos and the Badoon. After Thanos apparently killed the Elders of the Universe, to impose his supremacy,[13] he became one with the Cosmic Cube and killed the Avengers and the Guardians as well. But actually, they were sent to the Cancerverse along with the Elders. While there, Tony Stark found that Thanos' weapon wasn't actually a Cosmic Cube and that it had defects. They bargained with the Collector, in exchange for a weapon capable of deactivating the "Cube" and return to Earth. The Avengers and the Guardians would let Thanos be defeated by the Elders. With the help of other members of the Avengers, Thanos was defeated and sent to punishment by the Elders.[14]
After being alerted by his father, J'son, that a council of galactic empires had decided that Earth should be left untouched by all, the Guardians fought a Badoon invasion on Earth.[15] They were briefly imprisoned by Spartoi forces after defeating the Badoon in London,[16] but managed to escape, becoming fugitives of the Spartoi Empire.[17]
Attack of the Spartoi
Star-Lord was later captured by the Spartoi and his fellow Guardians were all sent to other places across the galaxy for their own separate punishments.[18] Soon after being captured, Quill was saved by none other than Captain Marvel.[19] After exposing King J'son for who he really was and starting a rebellion,[20] Peter Quill and Captain Marvel went around the Galaxy picking up their teammates, all except newly-inducted Flash Thompson who went into hiding after escaping a run-in with the Skrulls.[21]
Sibling Rivalry
After sneaking into an orphanage to search for a gem left behind by the Spartax, Peter was confronted by a group of Badoon bounty hunters. Outnumbered, Peter was captured by the Badoon. While imprisoned, Peter discovered that a mysterious "Mr. knife" placed the bounty on his head and that he also had plans for Earth. Soon after, Peter escaped the ship with the gem only to come face-to-face with the commander of the Spartax Royal Guard who turned out to be the sister he didn't know he had, Victoria.[22] She turned him into Fortress Viderdoom for the reward money, but quickly turned on Quill's captors to help him escape and steal Viderdoom's assets. The siblings escaped the planet together, narrowly avoiding death. When back on her ship, Victoria offered half of the money to Peter but he declined it, saying he was in it for the adventure.[23]

1 fatality as smoke from hay fire causes chain-reaction accidents on I-65
By Carrie Napoleon Post-Tribune correspondent August 18, 2012 10:18AM
Updated: September 20, 2012 10:21AM
One man is dead and nine people were transported to area hospitals after three Saturday-morning multivehicle crashes on both sides of Interstate 65 two to three miles south of the Indiana 10 exit in Jasper County.
All of the wrecks were the result of low visibility due to smoke from a nearby hay fire at Bos Dairy Farm at County Roads 700N and 1000W in Jasper County.
The wrecks closed northbound I-65 for more than seven hours and closed the southbound lanes for about four hours. During the closures traffic was diverted off the highway at the Indiana 10 and Indiana 14 exits.
A 13-vehicle crash in the northbound lanes occurred around 7 a.m. at the 227 mile marker, and two separate crashes in the southbound lanes — one involving six cars, the second involving two vehicles — occurred about 7:20 a.m. at the 228 mile marker.
Richard Swan, 69, of Frankfort, who was involved in the first pileup, was pronounced dead at the scene from blunt force trauma injuries, according to Jasper County Coroner Andrew Boersma. Indiana State Police said Swan was a back-seat passenger and was not wearing a safety belt.
Three other members of his family were transported to area hospitals for their injuries. All three were wearing safety belts. His wife Mary D. Swan, 64, who was also in the back seat, was transported to Jasper County Hospital in Rensselaer along with her son Tyler S. Swan, 39, of Frankfort, who was driving the vehicle. Both had non-life threatening injuries. His daughter-in-law Stacey M. Swan, 36, the front seat passenger, was flown by Lifeline from the scene to Lafayette with serious injuries.
The chain-reaction crash in the northbound lanes began when traffic became slow and stopped due to the poor visibility. A 2009 Volvo semi pulling a box trailer driven by David W. Rickle, 62, of Janesville, Wis., rear-ended a 2008 International semi and box trailer driven by Thomas N. Townsend, 52, of Kenosha, Wis.
Rickle was transported to Franciscan St. Anthony Health-Crown Point with non-life threatening injuries. Townsend was not injured.
The crash between the two semis caused the chain-reaction wreck involving 11 more vehicles. Jose Barradas, 42, of Burlington, Wis., then crashed his Chevrolet Silverado into the semis. He was not injured. Lance Johnson, 42, of Dolton, Ill., was driving a two-trailer United Parcel Service truck that crashed. Johnson was not injured.
Another semi and box trailer, driven by Shannon E. Brown, 26, of Clinton, Iowa, also crashed. He was not injured. The sixth vehicle in the wreck was a 2012 Ford Escape driven by Helen L. Campbell, 68, of DeMotte. She was transported to Jasper County Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Anthony A. McWhirter Sr., 49, of Remington and his 2002 Pontiac Grand Am was the seventh vehicle involved. He was not injured. Abdule Salama, 26, of Crest Hill, Ill., was driving a 2003 Volvo semi that was next in the wreck. Salama was not injured.
The Swan family, in a 2002 Ford Escape, was the ninth vehicle in the chain.
Robert F. Heide Jr., 53, of Niles, Mich., driving a 2005 Ford Explorer Sporttrac, and Kenneth L. Burkenpas, 69, of West Lafayette, driving a 1998 International semi and box trailer, were not injured. Criselez O. Magno, 34, of Indianapolis, driving a 2009 Nissan Murano, was transported to Jasper County Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The driver of the 13th vehicle, Robert D. Hollingsworth, 59, of Greer, S.C., was in a 2011 Mazda CX-9. He was not injured.
A preliminary investigation revealed that a chain-reaction six-car crash in the southbound lanes occurred in the area where visibility was bad when a 2003 Chevrolet driven by Judy Abernathy of Lowell began to pass a 2003 Freightliner semi with a box trailer driven by Albert L. Coker, 55, of Scottsburg. Abernathy rear-ended a 2005 BMW driven by David S. Kettler of Chicago. This caused a chain reaction as the Chevrolet pushed the BMW into a 2007 Dodge Ram driven by Martin J. Murphy, 50 of Shakopee, Minn., who was then pushed into a 2003 BMW driven by Montoo G. Patel, 30, of Homer Glen, Ill., who then was pushed into a 2002 Chevrolet driven by Tiffany D. Deno, 23, of DeMotte.
Coker's semi was loaded with freight, but the load was not lost or damaged.
Abernathy, 60, was transported to Franciscan St. Anthony Health-Crown Point along with a passenger in her vehicle, Nancy Gresham, 83, of Merrillville. Deno was transported to Jasper County Hospital in Rensselaer.
The hay fire started around 7 a.m. in a field at the Bos Dairy, according to a safety officer for the Keener Township Fire Department who declined to be identified. Keener Township was the lead agency responding to the fire.
The fire started Friday in a barn where the hay was stored. The spokesman said the fire occurred naturally from the heat generated during the decomposition of the hay. Firefighters responded Friday and the hay in the barn was removed and spread out on a field. There were no injuries reported at the farm.
Around 7 a.m. Saturday firefighters responded to a call about the fire rekindling and causing thick brown smoke that impaired visibility on both Interstate 65, which was about a mile from the farm, and Indiana 10, almost three miles from the farm.
Firefighters from Keener Township, Lake Township, Wheatfield, Marion Township, Lincoln Township, Hebron and Rensselaer responded to the fire.
"All we are doing is containing the fire ... and trying to drop the smoke down," the spokesman said Saturday morning.

Oh please can I win an iPad2. It was on my Christmas list but apparently Santa thought I was bad last year.
I really wasn't Mr Claus
Nice to "just log in" and feel right at home with the other MyBB members. Congrats! with the new venture!
Is there an Android App. available that I can use to post and view threads?
would be awesome to win an IPAD 2
Would be a useful gift to my son, who is studying PC Tech
Great prize. New to BusinessTech but have used Mybroadband for many years. Information on the go is almost indispensable and with an Ipad I can be in touch wherever I am and have the latest information at my fingertips.
HI.I haven't ever won anything & can't afford an iPad 2. The prices has also gone up which make things even more difficult until the new iPads launch in months to come. I will never attempt buying second hand as people do not look after their stuff.
