Gmorning."i'm not different anymorea revolving door you came through"I feel like a revolving door. Everytime I think a set of friends will last forever, they fade away. Maybe it's just my imagination, but I don't feel like I'm needed or wanted... by people I thought I was going to be with for the rest of my life. Is it that I suck at picking friends, or just keeping them?That all probably has something to do with why I cling so hard to the friends I make, which is probably part of why they eventually distance themselves. It all makes sense right, in the logic of the universe...Why is it I only feel compelled to write in this thing when I feel like shit?In other news, MR this weekend. Half my friends are either NPCing or not going... It's gonna snow, 20 degrees outside, and I'll be LARPing in the woods. This is why even Bennies laugh at LARPers, isn't it?In other other news: two years for me and Duck on Monday!!! woot...Gnite.

This is a brilliant product, we get through lots and lots of potatoes and I was really happy to find that Ocado now stock large sacks at a price that's not much higher than our local pick-your-own farm. Being unwashed, they keep really well, unlike washed potatoes wrapped in plastic which will inevitably begin to spoil within 1-2 weeks because their skins are damp. Paper sacks are a bonus, they let the spuds breathe and you can recycle them rather than add more plastic to the landfill. I've tried two varieties so far - to one of the previous reviewers, variety is printed on the tag sewn into one end of the bag, - and both have been a good selection of sizes, but mostly large, and equally good for boiling, frying, baking, roasting, and mashing. The only silly thing I've done is to order 4 bags in 2 weeks when they were on sale so they've now sprouted, but are still perfectly fine to eat and I think they'll keep at least another couple of months. We've only got 2 bags left now anyway. Can't fault these in any way. Brilliant.
Thank you for your review. We work really hard to make our range a success and we're delighted that you enjoyed this product.

They are ok, but require cleaning
Unless you eat a lot of potato, this product is probably not worth the bother. They require quite a bit of cleaning, and of course you don't get to know what variety they are. I would prefer to pay the extra 16p a kilo that the washed named varieties cost.

Bought mine a month ago, store them in a cold part of the house and they have lasted well. Have given half away as was worried they might sprout before we got through them all. Still have loads left and they are still very usable and tasty

Good value potatoes
I've bought two sacks of these now - the first when they were half price, which was bargainous indeed. The potatoes in the first sack were very nice - good for mashing, boiling, home made wedges etc., but most of them were very small making them very fiddly to peel. I don't think there was one potato big enough to have as a jacket spud. I bought another sack anyway and these so far are much better - much bigger potatoes. The first sack lasted a few weeks - they began to sprout after a while but I just cut the sprouts off. I only had one rotten potato in the whole sack - pretty good.

rosainparadiseI will finish writing my Non Fiction Book
I have got the ideas, the inspirations, maybe I just need a formula to follow. 21 months ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.
- The Robots.
I have got the ideas, the inspirations, maybe I just need a formula to follow. 21 months ago
I've discovered that working on the computer isn't compatible with my attention span/editing habits, so this weekend while I'm on break I'm off to a print shop to get a copy of my manuscript so I can manually scribble in notes and alterations. I guess this is my first step onto the road to real revision. I'm at once terrified and excited. It'll work out in the end, though. I hope. 2 years ago
I realized that I actually finished the first draft to my novel several years ago (it's been a very ongoing, inconsistent project). Making that decision that the first draft was done was liberating but super difficult, since I kept wanting to tweak. Now it's onto the editing and revision stage where I'm allowed to tweak and more than tweak. Only once that's been done (several times for a bazillion drafts, most likely) will I finally declare it done. 2 years ago

How to choose a boiler
No one should specify any boiler before doing a thorough heat load analysis; this is something I do after I win a contract or receive a consulting fee. Your prospective contractor should produce a sample of his heat load calculations. There is little difference in cost between the various boilers available, but an oversized boiler (modulation notwithstanding) can affect over-all system efficiency by as much as 50% and can lead to comfort and reliability issues.
All modern high efficiency gas-fired boilers condense AND modulate flame. Condensing boilers recover the latent heat found in the water vapor (smoke up the chimney) to usable hot water used to drive radiant floors, radiators and even fin-tube baseboard. This act of recovering latent heat typically reducing stack temperature by several hundred degrees and allows for a Class IV vent (PVC).
It would seem a boiler that modulates flame (output) would not require such careful sizing. However, just the opposite is true. It is at low fire that much of the fuel savings occur, and in most ModCon boilers that low-fire is determined by the high-fire output, i.e. the "bigger" the boiler the bigger the minimum output. This condition can lead to short cycling (death to system AND thermal efficiency).
As I am a consultant, AND a contractor, people all over North America often ask me; which boiler is best? Most contractors are married to one supplier and advocate one boiler brand (usually a non-condensing, low efficiency cast iron model). As you can see from my website, I have personally installed nearly all ModCons currently available in the USA. The reason for this admittedly odd practice is twofold; first I like to compare ease of installation, maintenance, performance and factory support. Second, no, one, boiler, fits every application and many of the boiler companies have short lines. This is particularly true of the European boiler manufacturers' N. American offerings.
I would also like to determine the type and size of indirect water heater you will need. Since you are considering one of the most efficient and lowest polluting fossil fuel appliances on the planet, it makes sense to put it to good use satisfying what is most likely your second highest fuel bill, domestic hot water.
With a Mod/Con and indirect or "companion water heater" you will be able to permanently close the old fashioned chimney and the open combustion air pipe, saving even more fuel!
If you have an off-the-shelf programmable thermostat it will lend nothing to comfort and little to efficiency when applied to the typical hydronic heating system. They are made for forced air furnaces. You, on the other hand, will benefit both in comfort and efficiency by use of the onboard microprocessor that resets boiler water temperature to outdoor temperature (at least one ModCon has an onboard setback feature with boost mode to catch-up after a cold night). Some ModCons even feature water temperature setback for more fuel saving.
Properly applied, sized, installed and programmed; all of the Mod/Cons will condense and operate at their full potential efficiency (95%+ A.F.U.E). Warranties are very similar and the last thing I consider; as labor will double or triple any replacement part you may need. Certain models have factory extended parts and labor warranties. Extended warranties are available for all models but are a form of insurance. Unfortunately warranties are not reflective of quality, reliability, serviceability or efficient system design.
Annual maintenance by a factory certified technician (such as me) is key to the safe, reliable and efficient performance of any Mod/Con driven heating system. This is not just a matter of knowledge and experience but requires a combustion analyzer among other expensive tools. So ask your contractor about factory training on the model he advocates.
A final word on "Big Box" boilers. Your local hardware/department store or "Web" supplier may "sell" boilers, but they are seldom qualified to design, install or service any of them, much less a modern ModCon. If your local gas supplier sells boilers keep in mind installation may be done by sub-contractors who are - by definition - the low bidder.
See the Resources Page for more information on high efficiency condensing boilers.

Tiffany Wood has plenty to say to young ladies at the "Community of 1" forum Saturday at the Senior Activity Center on Urbane Road.
Her part in the forum will be mainly directed toward young ladies, but she also has something for young men to think about.
"Fathers set the foundation of the family and all too many of our black women, more than any other group, we need to realize we can't subtract fathers from our home," she said. "They are not just 'our' children. We have to include fathers in the raising part because fatherhood doesn't stop at conception."
The conference is designed to bring information and awareness to young people in the areas of education, employment, health, self-employment, politics, athletics and finances. It is planned for Saturday at the Bradley-Cleveland Senior Activity Center at 230 Urbane Rd. from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The purpose is to provide everyone in attendance with a greater sense of self-worth, personal confidence and service to the city of Cleveland and Bradley County. It is with those things in mind that local professionals are coalescing into a "Community of 1." The theme of the conference is "Getting Things Started."
Just to help get things started, Food Network celebrity chef Jenard Wells of Chattanooga Wing Co. will be the featured food vendor and there will be a free giveaway of a 32-inch flat-screen TV.
Conference organizer Solomon Williams said the giveaways will be awarded only to those present throughout the entire conference.
Speakers include Kelly Runyons, Staff Management; coach Frank Walker, Tennessee Christian Preparatory School; Quantal Langford, Langford Design; Del Baker, former Cleveland High School Basketball All-American; Shaun Cox, Golden Orchid Photography; Michelle Styles, Overcoming Faith Christian Center; Tiffany "Tipp" Wood, Omega Salon; Danielle Farrell, Raw Art & Dance Studio; and gospel recording artist Ashlyn Prather.
As Tiffany Wood (Sharp), 38, tells her story, it is readily apparent that she has always had people to help shape her life.
Wood is a native Clevelander and graduate of Cleveland High School. She married Greg Wood at age 20. They have three sons: Curtis, 22; Rondazz Mee Jr., 20; and JaCobi, 11. Wood is also a businesswoman and hair stylist at her own shop, The Omega Salon at 870 Inman Street, where she says is the end of bad hair days.
"Omega just happens to be my middle name because I'm the end. I'm the last of four children." she said. "I first discovered I wanted to do hair when I was 8 years old. I woke up and did my own hair that morning and from that day on, my mother has never done my hair."
Her mother only knew how to plait hair. But, Wood said, she wanted French braids so her godmother, Kimberly Pugh and her sister, taught Wood how to French braid.
"So that morning I woke up and French braided my own hair and from then on, I have been doing other people's hair. I did people on my softball team at Northeast (College Hill Recreation Center) and it just carried on from there. But when I got married and had my son, I had to put hair on the back burner, but it has always been a dream of mine. It has always been a passion because I love to do it. I've done hair for free because if you have a passion like that, you'll do it for free for awhile because you have to pour out until it starts flowing back in."
After marriage and having a child, Wood had to go to work because having a business just wasn't in the cards for her at that time.
"Then I was blessed with the opportunity to quit work, move back home with my mom and go to school fulltime at Franklin Academy," she said.
After graduation, she went to work at Tanglez II on North Ocoee Street where her friend and mentor, Melanie Snyder, taught her about how to do color and the business aspect of hair styling.
"She left and went to another salon and then I got blessed with this now-or-never opportunity. It was just like the Lord laid it at my feet," she said. "I was looking for a place, but the prices were too high.
"I can't consult my pocketbook with my dream. I have to consult God. God said 'I will maintain your business' and He did."
The location of her salon is the prime example. She drove passed the house across from Dotson Funeral Home one day in early 2012. It had just been vacated and Alma Dotson had purchased it on one day and Wood called her the next.
She opened The Omega Salon Feb. 6, 2012, "and from then on, I've been here living my dream."
She wants to let girls know that it is OK to need someone who is willing to be with them in times of need, whether it is a coach, teacher or someone else in the community.
"We're trying to turn this around for our community and make it stronger and better," Wood said.
Girls should know that it is OK to be pursued without being aggressive.
"In our black history, women have been made to be aggressive, strong and independent. You don't have to be that way," she said. "You can be interdependent. You can depend on each other. We're trying to be a Community of 1 here. You don't have to be strong all the time. It's OK to need your mom. It's OK to need your dad. It's OK to need a friend. A lot of black women don't even compliment each other."
She said parents unknowingly teach their children forms of behavior through body language.
"You can teach your 6-year-old daughter something without saying a word. It's how you live your life, your day-to-day routine — a little girl can pick up on that so fast — she won't even know her momma taught her to disrespect a man, to not want a man, to say she doesn't need a man. But we need men," she said.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The state plans to release Tennessee's annual traffic fatality figures on Wednesday.
Safety Commissioner Bill Gibbons and Transportation Commissioner John Schroer are holding a press conference to announce the totals, as well as the preliminary figures for how many deaths involved alcohol or unrestrained motorists.
The Transportation Department announced earlier this month that it will begin displaying the year-to-date fatality rate only on Fridays after months of running the numbers daily on digital message boards across the state.
State officials started displaying the running daily tally last April after seeing a sharp increase in fatalities in the first quarter of 2012. Schroer called the campaign a success despite the more than 1,000 deaths on the highways last year.

Fort Hays State University > About FHSU > Executive Division > Office of the President > FHSU Profile - Students
With nearly 5,000 in Hays, more than 3,000 in China, and thousands more in nearly all 50 states and more than 20 other countries, there really is no typical Fort Hays State University student. The diversity spans age, gender, race, culture and national origin.Fort Hays State has three modalities for delivering education -- on campus in Hays; at partner universities in China; and through the Virtual College across Kansas, the nation and the world.FHSU students in China attend partner universities at Xinzheng and Shenyang, earning both a Chinese degree and a degree from Fort Hays State. They are almost exclusively traditional college age and very much a part of their native culture. They also aspire to learn Western business practices and share a fascination for American culture. Some of them relocate to Hays for graduate studies, and some traditional FHSU students study at the partner universities in China. The cross-cultural experiences are enhanced as Chinese faculty serve as visiting faculty in Hays and American faculty teach in China. Since the first Chinese student earned a degree from Fort Hays State, President Edward H. Hammond has traveled to China to attend every commencement and personally hand out the diplomas.Students in the FHSU Virtual College represent a wide cross-section of not just the United States but the world. The majority of these students are employed, with family responsibilities, and are working toward a degree to improve their career. Most do not take a full course load in any given semester. Their average age is 36, and 64 percent are female. On the Hays campus, quintessential FHSU students are determined, hardworking and conscientious according to the 2013 ENGAGE ACT data reports. Through the Student Government Association, students take an informed and active role in the governance of the University. Students are determined to avoid large amounts of debt, so they work on and off campus to pay for much of their education rather than taking out student loans. They are conscientious about their place in the world and show it by becoming engaged civically, socially and globally. Through the many student organizations and more formally in classes that have a service-learning component, FHSU students impact Hays and their home communities in positive and dramatic ways.Perhaps the most common phrase that is used to describe FHSU students is "diamonds in the rough." Despite their rural work ethic, curiosity and intellectual ability, they tend to be very humble, even lacking in academic confidence. Still, they definitely are not averse to working hard to realize their dreams.In sum, the FHSU campus is a diverse community in terms of home countries, home states, race, gender, ethnicity, socio-economic status and sexual orientation. They also share common threads of being family oriented, hardworking, eager to learn and incredibly talented. Of the 4,767 students on campus, a bit more than 90 percent are undergraduates. Of those undergraduates, 53 percent are female, and 88 percent are in the traditional age group.In order to address unique needs of FHSU students, the Division of Student Affairs has embarked on two notable programs to polish these diamonds. The first Learning Community was launched in 2010. A Learning Community is a group of 20-30 first-year students who share some common interests, take classes together, live on the same floor of a residence hall and participate in activities together throughout the year. Because the Learning Communities have been such a success, they have expanded to nine unique choices this year. In addition, beginning this year all incoming freshmen are required to take a one-credit-hour class, Freshman Seminar, that teaches them the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the transition to collegiate life.

Collected Stories (Everyman's Library)
by Roald Dahl
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Xmas gift from Dad
Oh to be taken into the wonderful world of Roald Dahls. I have this book out of the library at the moment, and I am loving the seemingly perfectly crafted stories however after renewing it twice, it might be time to return this, unfortunately. I kind of just flipped through the book and read stories randomly according to their titles mostly. They were excellent and uplifting, but sort of horrific too. This man is a genius.
At nearly 900 pages this book is a force to be reckoned with. And being as it's a collection of short stories, it's not meant to be read all at once. If you check it out from the library you may need to renew it once or twice. The stories are in chronological order. Most of the first ones are about flying, reflecting Dahl's experiences as a pilot in the RAF during World War II. The stories are of varying lengths, but all are of about the right size to read in bed at night before you fall asleep.
Dahl is mostly famous for his children's books and many people don't realize he was a superb and prolific short story writer as well. There are a few simply stunning pieces in here, and a few mediocre ones. A must-read for any Dahl fan.
If all you know of Roald Dahl is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and maybe one of his others (Matilda, Witches, James and the Giant Peach, &c.), I must recommend that you visit some of his short stories. I've just finished the Everyman's Library edition of his Collected Stories, and oh, what fun they are. Creepy fun, to be sure (I wasn't sure I would be able to continue reading them before bed after a few nights of incalculably strange dreams), but fun nonetheless.
The lesson of this volume is perseverance. The stories are arranged chronologically, and the first ten stories, written during the World War II years, all have to do in some form with aircraft combat or soldiers in exotic places. They're not awful, but they are barely comparable to what follows. Stick with it (or skip the first 150 pages). Beginning with the eleventh story, "Nunc Dimittis" (1947) and continuing clear through the very last in the volume, "The Surgeon" (1986), these pieces are Dahl at the very top of his game. Suspense, revenge, satire that bites like a steel trap, and a remarkable ability to hold the punch line and resolution until the very last paragraph, often the very last word.
Everybody gets it in the neck with Dahl - just when they think they've gotten away with something, fate's pendulum swings round and puts things to rights again. From the unscrupulous antiques dealer trying to pull the wool over the eyes of some country yokels ("Parson's Pleasure", which was absolutely painful to read) to the woman who thinks she's managed to create the perfect cover for an illicit acquisition ("Mrs Bixby and the Colonel's Coat") to the young man who belatedly and unfortunately discovers the pleasures of carnivorism ("Pig"), and so on, the bill always comes due.
It's hard to pick favorites from a volume like this, when so many of the stories are so deliciously good, so perfectly paced that the final blow often induces a slight wince for the victim (deserving or otherwise) of Dahl's final twist of the knife. A few particularly cringe-inducing or really absorbing pieces, other than those mentioned in the preceding paragraph, include "Vengeance is Mine Inc." (utterly hilarious), "Taste," "Lamb to the Slaughter" (brilliant), "A Dip in the Pool" (in which our main character is too smart by half) "The Hitchhiker" (delightful) and "The Bookseller" (which is, quite simply, perfect).
A very nice volume, well collected and ably introduced by Jeremy Treglown.
I've always loved Roald Dahl's children's books with their bizarre characters and absurd situations. I had high hopes then, when I began his adult stories.
I was disappointed for the first 150 pages or so. The early stories were a disappointing chain of World War II fighter pilot stories that read like bad Hemingway. Once I got past them though, things improved dramatically. Dahl's non-WWII tales are clever and dark, and he builds suspense beautifully. His stories twist and turn in ways you think you can predict but never quite can. If you're looking for the crazy, imaginative abandon of his children's stories, you won't quite find it here. You will however, find stories that are worth reading.
I'd read his tales before; but I was happy to read them again. I was glad to be affected by them, and troubled by them; glad to recall my childhood discovery of this writer. Difficult, strange, enchanting, yes — and bloody tremendous, terrific, fantastic too.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0307264904, Hardcover)(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
The only hardcover edition of Roald Dahl's stories for adults, the Collected Stories amply showcases his singular gifts as a fabulist and a born storyteller.
Later known for his immortal children's books, including Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, and The BFG, Dahl also had a genius for adult short fiction, which he wrote throughout his life. Whether fictionalizing his dramatic exploits as a Royal Air Force pilot during World War II or concocting the ingeniously plotted fables that were dramatized on television as Tales of the Unexpected, Dahl was brilliant at provoking in his readers the overwhelming desire to know what happens next—and at satisfying that desire in ways that feel both surprising and inevitable.
Filled with devilish plot twists, his tales display a tantalizing blend of macabre humor and the absurdly grotesque. From "The Landlady," about an unusual boardinghouse that features a small but very permanent clientele, to "Pig," a brutally funny look at vegetarianism, to "Man from the South," in which a fanatical gambler does his betting with hammer, nails, and a butcher's knife, Dahl's creations amuse and shock us in equal measure, gleefully reminding us of what might lurk beneath the surface of the ordinary.

After climbing to 103 degrees, Chicago 'cools down' to 86 degrees
By MONIFA THOMAS AND STEFANO ESPOSITO Staff Reporters July 6, 2012 7:32AM
Children playing around an open fire hydrant near the intersection of S. Damen Ave. and W. James St. on Friday, July 6, 2012 in Chicago. | Chandler West~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: August 8, 2012 6:06AM
For only the third time on record, Chicago cracked the 100-degree mark for the third day in a row in a blistering heat wave that has so far claimed the lives of six people and possibly up to nine others.
And for at least another day, the National Weather Service says the city and the suburbs will bake Saturday in what could be a fourth straight day of triple-digit temperatures, although by 1 p.m. temperatures dropped to 86 degrees. Although the cool-down was expected to bring some relief, the excessive-heat warning in effect for most of the week has been extended until 4 p.m. Saturday.
"I'm past ready for a break," valet Maurice Williams, of the South Side, said Friday night after a week of parking and retrieving cars downtown.
At its peak, temperatures soared to 103 degrees at O'Hare Airport Friday. That comes after 103-degree heat on Thursday and a 102-reading on Wednesday.
So far, the heat contributed to the deaths of six people, although more deaths are expected. Four of those that were reported Friday by the Cook County medical examiner's office were: Pat Wong, 91, of the 4200 block of North Winchester Avenue; Frank Proczek, 58, of the 5000 block of South Western Avenue; Riley Kimble, 59, of the 1800 block of West Jackson Boulevard; and Carmen Mercado, 81, of the 2000 block of West Superior Street.
One of Pat Wong's sons, Ricky Wong, said his mother lived on the top floor of the family home. Concerned about the heat, Ricky Wong said he checked on his mother Thursday night and found she'd stopped breathing. The younger Wong said the air conditioning wasn't working in his mother's room, but she'd refused to move into a cooler room downstairs.
"She was stubborn," 56-year-old Ricky Wong said of the woman who raised a family of five and had lived in the same home since 1967.
On Saturday, the Cook County medical examiner's office was expected to release autopsy results indicating whether heat was a factor in the deaths of at least nine other people who died Friday.
Preliminary information indicates that majority of the nine had underlying medical problems and died in homes that did not have air conditioning, according to a source in the medical examiner's office.
Among those who died Friday were 64-year-old Roosevelt Richmond, who had a core temperature of 108 degrees before he died at West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park and Daisy Gopps, 79, who was discovered in her La Grange home that had a temperature of 100 degrees. Another man in his 30s had a core temperature of 106 degrees when he was found in the 0 to 100 block of South Cicero, authorities said.
Although the mercury climbed past 100 the past three days, the city still fell shy of beating the all-time heat record of 105 degrees that was set on July 24, 1934. (One observer for the National Weather Service recorded a temperature of 105 degrees three miles southwest of Midway Airport, but the O'Hare temperature is the official mark for the city.)
That sweltering day in 1934 sent the governors of nine states fleeing Chicago's World Fair for the calming breezes of Mackinac Island, Mich., and was part of a hot spell that claimed the lives of hundreds of Chicagoans.
Those who are most at risk for heat-related illness are young children, seniors and people who aren't physically fit, said Dr. Omar Lateef, critical care expert at Rush University Medical Center.
When the body generates heat in hot weather, it cools down by taking blood to tissue in your arms and legs. This causes you to sweat and evaporate, which makes you feel cooler. But the cooling system doesn't work as well for people who don't drink enough fluid or whose body is producing too much heat.
Despite the city's cooling centers and efforts including adding 10 extra ambulances, "People die everywhere around the world when it gets hot," Lateef said.
In Chicago, summer school classes were canceled Friday, as were all school-run sports camps. And from June 28 through July 4, there were nearly 310 heat-related calls made to 9-1-1.
Some relief came Friday to those residing at a senior apartment building at 1401 W. Roosevelt Road. The building's air conditioning was fixed after it broke Sunday, according to city and East Lake Management officials.
Unable to bear the stifling heat, many residents of the Near West Side building had gone to stay with family.
East Lake Management have been visiting and calling the apartments to make sure residents aren't suffering from heat-related problems, spokeswoman Eileen Rhodes said. Some milling about the complex Friday were overheard saying there may have been some elderly residents who needed medical attention during the outage.
Elsewhere there was a little more good news: The last of the more than 300,000 Commonwealth Edison customers who lost their electricity in the wake of powerful storms on Sunday had their power restored by late Thursday, the utility said.
But ComEd warned that the heat wave will likely have one last sting in the form of increased electricity bills.
The utility urged customers to set their thermostats at a constant level between 75 and 78 degrees and to augment their air conditioning with fans.

So the media has been pouncing on this accidental killing story as a means to focus on the wrong things. Instead of talking about how irresponsible the parents were for leaving a gun outside of a locked safe for their children to have access to, it's apparently the video game's fault that they had it.
"It's a tragic accident, the 10-year-old and the 8-year-old were sitting on the couch, playing the video game. The 12-year-old was waving the gun around, pulling the trigger. You don't want to call it horse play, but it was horse play," said Lieutenant Blause Dresser, of the Richmond County Sheriff's Office.
Lt. Dresser said the 12-year-old pulled the trigger on his parent's semi-automatic handgun several times, when it discharged, killing Morris.
The original sources serve as a cautionary tale for what happens when you don't monitor what games you let your children play, as opposed to what happens when you let them play with real guns(as in ones that aren't 3D meshes). It makes me rage. Stuff like this has been happening all the time, but as soon as there's a video game in the equation, it's suddenly all about the video game.

Compass Minerals Acquires Rock Salt Mining Rights In Chile
Compass Minerals (NYSE: CMP) has purchased the mining rights to approximately 100 million tons of salt reserves in the Chilean Atacama Desert. The company invested $6.5 million for the rights and will pay a small per-ton production royalty to the private seller if extraction commences in the future. After 15 years, Compass Minerals will have the option to buy out the royalties obligation and maintain the mining interest outright. The site would require significant infrastructure development to establish extraction capabilities.
The new assets further diversify Compass Minerals' rock salt mineral reserves and could enhance the company's North American highway deicing business as well as its consumer and industrial business, which processes rock salt to make many of its products.
"This is another strategic investment in the long-term future of Compass Minerals following our recent expansion of the world's largest rock salt mine in Goderich, Ontario, and the ongoing, multi-phased expansion of our sulfate of potash specialty fertilizer production capabilities at the Great Salt Lake in Utah," said Angelo Brisimitzakis, Compass Minerals president and CEO. "We have been evaluating strategic salt deposits for many years, and this is one of the highest-quality reserves we have located. This acquisition secures our access to one of the lowest-cost mining regions in the Western Hemisphere. It nicely complements our existing salt businesses and provides the potential to further expand our highway deicing service footprint through cost-effective surface-quarrying extraction and efficient ocean transportation."
Compass Minerals currently has the capability to produce approximately 14 million tons of rock salt each year at its three underground mines located in Goderich, Ontario; Cote Blanche, Louisiana; and Cheshire, U.K. The company also produces approximately one million tons of higher-purity mechanically evaporated salt at four locations in North America and 1.5 million tons of solar-evaporated salt at the Great Salt Lake near Ogden, Utah.

n not balanced.
|So maybe should be forbidden. If both teams allow it in match can be used.
|Just ban it from ESL AVA. No Showdown and no Hellhound. So all teams will play the same maps in all leagues and tournaments. That's always good. It's like in COD and CS. Always the same maps.
w0lf_ wrote:n not balanced.
Actually, the game is not balanced. Showdown and Hellhound are balanced maps (considering you have 1 sniper / team and you make use of smokes and binos).
The game as a whole however is not balanced, since a grenade can travel across the whole map and damage/eliminate targets with ease. Also, in this game you have the pixel target grenades (the ones that you find after hours of useless nade spamming), that land at exactly the same spot and do maximum damage.
For example Black Scent, you can effectivly elliminate the opposing team with nades alone (site 1 cand nade the wareshouse/middle and vice-versa). Also, doors can be "bugged" elliminating the options to take the sites.
Also, Dual Sight can he taken over with ease if you know all the nade spots, since site 2 can be naded almost full and there are only 2 more positions where you can hold the site and thus prefire FTW. All outside maps can be unbalanced since you can nade spam the sites with no direct fight. Also, grenades that take 10 seconds to explode (and thus can be thrown over the map) are the things that unbalance the game.
The other thing that unbalanced the game was the unusual way you deal/receive damage. Since the M24 (50-60 damage) can 1 shot without HS/Luckyshot is suspicious. Also, the damage on weapons is different from the stats (and usually gets modified without notice) and so do the armor ratings on armor/backpack. The TPG / FR-F2 now tag more and cause "1hp" opponents more often then before with the same stats/range/mods.
Also, some tactics will never work since the C4 beep can be heard all over the map and faking the other site will never work.
Also, the lag/corner lag is still a problem even with pings lower then 30, since everybody still teleports over some corners.
Also, the registered / not registered shots (when you see blood from your target / goggles lit, and he is 100Hp/100Armor) are still a problem that will most likely never be resolved since it requires better configuration of the server and that does not bring money.
Remember, this game is free for the public, the only way developers make money off it is with gcoins. They have very little regard for balance. The rulles for ESL AVA should be very simple :
-No armors whatsoever
-No new guns (only specific guns are allowed, since nobody can get all the guns to test and use in time) since they get modified the most. And yes, this will bring balance, since somebody can play with para and others don't have the euro to get it (this is an example, since the para was ingame for some time now).
-No gcoin items (grenades / weapons / armors).
-Only flashbang and flash HE allowed (M67 is too much for small maps and can be abused through pixel target).
And now rage that you feel the game is balanced the way it is and that it takes "skill" to eliminate/damage a team with just grenades over the map.
|i know that i am going to regret this, but can anyone tell me a good reason for allowing Bino in competitive gaming?
|Each team has one and most of the topteams don't use it anyways. So it isn't really important to be honest.
|only weapon for Euro casch.
Make create test leader 3on3 ?
animek wrote:only weapon for Euro casch.
Make create test leader 3on3 ?
5on5 or nothing
This isn't Combat Arms or Warrock
|As "uaf" stated, there are still alot of open questions to settle concerning the specific rules. Maybe a poll would help a little, to provide fair and competitively equal rules.

Glazed oranges
Updated On: Aug 01 2014 06:14:03 AM EDT
Here a fat-free sauce is made using frozen juice concentrate. Serve this as a juicy, light dessert or as part of brunch.
4 oranges
6 ounces frozen pineapple-orange or pineapple juice concentrate, thawed
2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
Sprigs of fresh mint for garnish
Zest the peel from 2 of the oranges. To prepare the glaze, stir together the zest and juice concentrate in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. When the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring constantly, until the concentrate reduces and darkens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice; set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, peel the oranges. Place them on dessert plates. Pour the glaze over each orange and top with a small mound of orange zest. Provide knives and forks for easy eating.
Advance Preparation
The oranges will keep for up to 2 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

All we need is loveI am a gay guy from Russia. I love my country but what happened in Moscow on the 28th of May 2011 makes me feel that I should find a safer place to live for me and my parents. I know for sure that I will do that in two years and a half - in Spain where same sex marriages are legal and there is no extreme homophobia that we have in Russia now. I am NOT afraid of anything. Now I am not that 16 year old boy who tried to commit suicide because of being gay. There has always been only one person in the world who can make me pull myself together no matter what happens to me and She will always be under my skin. She IS my Angel. Thanks God!

For the rights and freedoms of N.Y. gaysHere, in CANADA, a country of freedom, human rights, democracy, justice and of an open-minded community and society for instance, same sex marriage is legal. In fact, gay marriage is legal across Canada (that includes all of our provinces and territories) since the adoption of the Law on Civil Marriage on 20 July 2005.
That being said, our beautiful country is a model for countries rebuking homosexuality and/or who are not yet fully open to this issue in terms of their social justice and human rights system!
So, why it could not be the same thing for N.Y., and even the entire United States of America!? Does it have to be so complicated?

Applications on demand with Apwal program launcher
Launching a program by clicking
with your mouse can have a few
disadvantages. Users lose their
way in nested menu structures,
and desktop icons can become
hidden behind windows. The
Apwal program launcher makes it
easy to launch with a click.
Modern desktops and window
managers typically give you all
the options you need to launch
your favorite programs by clicking with
your mouse. This saves time, as clicking
takes just a couple of seconds, in contrast
to entering commands at the command
line. But this still wasn't fast
enough for Pascal Eberhard. Moving
active windows to look for icons wasn't
his idea of efficiency. This prompted Pascal
to develop Apwal [1], an icon-based
program launcher that pops up a userdefined
selection of icons under the
mouse cursor when called on.
The program name is an acronym for advanced
and powerful window app

What are some of your alls funniest, grossest, wierdest stories that deal with male teenagers??????... Read More
- 1Nov 26, '12 by big al lpn, LPN, EMT-BI work summers at a camp. Co Ed 7-16 plus counselors 20+. We have observed that two boys in a room will quickly develop bunk funk, to the point we have to air it out after they leave. Girls in the same type of room for the same amount of time, do not leave funk. I had a boy about 13 who presented with a large blister covering half the bottom of his foot, ON BOTH FEET. They popped soaking his shoes and leaving flaps of skin the soze of an instant waffle hanging off the bottoms of his feet. He was positively hobbled. I dressed them and asked just how he managed to get such big blisters. He replied that he was playing basket ball on the asphalt barefoot. I angerly looked at his counsoler, who immediately broke down and admitted he had done it too, and had matching wounds!

And then,... One day she walked in and nearly passed out. I had been watching TV sucking the top of a yoohoo bottle, and letting it pull my lips in, they were swollen, gray, and blue. Guess she thought I was having a heart attack at 8 years old. Never done that again
