As promised, here are the leggings I made in a jiffy for Petunia yesterday. I followed this tutorial over at crafting a green world . She did such a great job with this tutorial, I have nothing to add! So I have pointed you to her site if you would like to try this. Do it! It's so easy…
Here are a few pics of the progress of the project:
My computer apparently doesn't like the photo of the step where you turn one leg (sleeve) inside out, put the other leg right side out into the inside out leg and sew the crotch seam. It won't upload it from my camera. But that's what would go here!
Then you put your elastic in the waist, attaching a safety pin to thread it through the opening you have left in the waistband. Sew the elastic together, sew the opening shut and voila!

I have stayed in this hotel a few times over the years, and I have to say that the last time I stayed has to be the worst. It was previously owned by the Conway family. Sean Conway had a reaaly nice manner and knew how to look after his customers.It is now under new ownership and it has gone down in many ways.The staff are dreadful, Sean is sadly missed and I am not sure if we will go back again. But what a lovely little hotel, pity it is not run the way it was and should be.

Boiler Scrappage Scheme for Dumfries and Galloway
In the middle of one of the coldest winters in recent memory the SNP has turned its back on homes in Dumfries in Galloway struggling with fuel bills.
While only a short drive away across the border households can get £400 from the UK Labour Goverment towards the cost of a new energy efficient boiler, here in Dumfries and Galloway the SNP have refused to introduce the scheme here. They have dismissed this measure to help people across our region struggling to pay their bills - even though the SNP have the money to pay for it. Installing a new energy efficient boiler could help households to save as much as £235 a year AND cut their carbon footprint while at the same time securing vital jobs at the companies which make, sell and install boilers.
I want the SNP government to match Labour's commitment across the rest of the UK to cutting fuel poverty, tackling climate change and helping the economy. It is not fair that Dumfries and Galloway should lose out while only just across the border people can get £400 for a new boiler.
Please sign my peition and show that we demand action now from the SNP.

Here is a quick overview of the 4 primary Growth Hormone Releasing Peptides most commonly used i athleti pursuits today. This is meant as a means to determine what might be the best and most appropriate application for your individual research needs.
Hexarelin is in the category of drugs known as GH secretagogues. This category of drugs includes GHRP-2, GHRP-6, Ipamorelin, and Hexarelin. Its primary function is to stimulate the pituitary gland to produce more growth hormone. Like the other GHRPs, it has a 2-fold mechanism of action, in that it causes an increase in GH through amplifying the natural growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) signal transduction pathway, as well as by suppressing the actions of Somatostatin.
IGF stands for insulin-like growth factor. It is a natural substance that is produced in the human body and is at its highest natural levels during puberty. During puberty IGF is the most responsible for the natural muscle growth that occurs during these few years. There are many different things that IGF does in the human body; I will only mention the points that would be important for physical enhancement. Among the effects the most positive are increased amino acid transport to cells, increased glucose transport, increased protein synthesis, decreased protein degradation, and increased RNA synthesis.
For decades BB'rs have been using HCG both on-cycle and off-cycle to prevent testicular atrophy, as well as help re-grow the testes prior to commencing PCT. HCG, known as Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, accomplishes this function by mimicking the actions of LH (leutinizing hormone) within the body, which is the hormone responsible for stimulating testosterone production. Aside from the obvious cosmetic benefits associated with testicular maintenance, retaining function of the testes helps set the stage for a more rapid post-cycle recovery by retaining the organ's ability to respond optimally to circulating LH.
Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide (GHRP-2) is a synthetic ghrelin analogue. Like ghrelin, it stimulates release of endogenous growth hormone from somatotropes in the anterior pituitary; also like ghrelin, it is synergistic with endogenous growth hormone releasing-hormone (GHRH) as well as with synthetic GHRH analogues such as Sermorelin or GRF(1-29). Whereas GHRP-2 and other ghrelin analogues increase the number of somatotropes involved in the GH pulse by inhibiting somatostatin, GHRH increases the pulse amplitude per pituitary cell or somatotrope by other means. Unlike ghrelin, GHRP is not lipogenic meaning it does not induce fat storage. While ghrelin has a very important role in hunger, GHRP-2 as an analog of ghrelin does not increase appetite significantly.
DAC conjugated CJC 1295 is an hGH secretogue that is unique by way of an additional lysine molecule that is added to facilitate the DAC complex. This conjugation makes for a much longer half-life. CJC 1295 DAC is a exceptionally designed peptide and is known for being the finest of the hGH secretogues.
Medical testing has shown that Cialis is effective in 60%-80% of cases when used to treat erectile dysfunction in subjects. Most failure cases are from subjects that have had some form of surgery that made getting or maintaining an erection physically impossible. Tadalafil produces results similar to Viagra, but the effects of Tadalafil last longer than Viagra. In addition, Tadalafil can be taken on an empty stomach or with a meal. When Tadalafil and Viagra were compared in a study Tadalafil allowed for more sexual frequency and that in turn raised Testosterone levels higher in the Cialis group.
A drug approved in Europe to treat osteoporosis has now been shown to stop the growth of breast cancer cells, even in cancers that have become resistant to current targeted therapies, according to a Duke Cancer Institute study.
The findings, presented June 15, 2013, at the annual Endocrine Society meeting in San Francisco, indicate that the drug bazedoxifene packs a powerful one-two punch that not only prevents estrogen from fueling breast cancer cell growth, but also flags the estrogen receptor for destruction.
Alexander Fleming's accidental discovery of penicillin was one of the most important—and fortunate—mistakes of the 20th century. Nearly 100 years later, James Bradner thinks he and his colleagues may have stumbled on something that could be similarly world-changing: A molecule that could lead to the world's first effective male birth control pill, which could be ready for human testing within a year.
With a splitting headache you reach into your medicine cabinet for some aspirin only to find the stamped expiration date on the bottle has passed - two years ago. So, do you take it or don't you? If you decide to take the aspirin will it be a fatal mistake or will you simply continue to suffer from the headache? This is a dilemma many people face in some way or another. A column published in Pyschopharmacology Today offers some advice.
It turns out that the expiration date on a drug does stand for something, but probably not what you think it does. Since a law was passed in 1979, drug manufacturers are required to stamp an expiration date on their products. This is the date at which the manufacturer can still guarantee the full potency and safety of the drug.
Unlike any other prohormone that has come before it, Trenabol occupies a very unique place in the prohormone world, as it is the first to convert to the highly regarded Trenbolone. No small feat and not to be minimized, I would be lying if I told you that this hasn't been attempted before. In fact, the number of companies which have tried to cash in on this proposition stretches way back to the industry's infancy, when VPX was the first to try and produce a Trenbolone PH over 10 years ago.
Testosterone is by far my favorite steroid because it's safe, comfortable, elicits rapid mass and strength gains while maintaining libido, a sense of well-being and energy. I recommend Testosterone as the base of almost every cycle. It's not uncommon for a first time user to gain 15-20lbs of LBM in a standard Testosterone cycle. Testosterone comes in many estered and non estered preparations. Additionally Testosterone comes in a wide variety of pharmacy grade and underground lab blends. Jelfa Omnadren 250 from M4BTEAM is a high quality oil based four component pharmaceutical grade Testosterone blend.

The Evil Dead is an American horror film franchise created by Sam Raimi consisting of four feature films. The films revolve around the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis, an ancient Sumerian text which wreaks havoc upon a group of cabin inhabitants in a wooded area in Tennessee. The protagonist, Ashley J. "Ash" Williams (Bruce Campbell) is the only character to appear in every installment of the original trilogy (Linda, Ash's girlfriend makes an appearance in all 3 films, but her only appearance in Army of Darkness is during the prologue). The original trilogy includes The Evil Dead (1981), Evil Dead II (1987), and Army of Darkness (1992), all written and directed by Raimi, produced by Robert G. Tapert, and starring Campbell. The franchise has since expanded into other formats such as video games and comic books, and a musical opened in Toronto in 2003 containing material from all three films.
The franchise was resurrected in 2013 with Evil Dead, both a reboot and a loose continuation of the series directed by Fede Alvarez and produced by Raimi, Campbell and Tapert. It is rumored that there will be three other installments of the franchise are considered: a sequel to the 2013 reboot currently entitled Evil Dead 2 but will not be directed by Alvarez,[1][2] a direct sequel to the original trilogy currently entitled Army of Darkness 2 rumored to be directed by Sam Raimi and starring Campbell,[3][4] and a seventh and final film which would merge the narratives of both chronologies.[5] Campbell later commented that the rumor about him returning is false. [6][7]
In July 2014, Bruce Campbell stated it was likely the planned sequel would instead be a TV show with him as the star. [8] Starz officially announced on November 10, 2014 that a ten-episode series titled Ash vs. Evil Dead would premiere on their cable network in 2015. The series will star Bruce Campbell as Ash and will be executive produced by Campbell, Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert.[9]

Within the Woods[edit]
In January 1978 Bruce Campbell was a college dropout who had just quit his job as a taxicab driver. Sam Raimi was studying literature at Michigan State University with Robert Tapert finishing his economics degree. While putting the finishing touches on It's Murder! Tapert suggested doing a feature length film to Raimi. Raimi felt it to be impossible citing that they could never pull off the funding. Campbell did not mind stating that "I could always move back home." Tapert feared a career in fisheries/wildlife while Raimi was afraid that he would go back to work at his dad's home furnishing store. These were the practical reasons that convinced the three to put forth a feature length film.[10] The three were highly supportive fans of the comedy genre, though they decided not to do such a film as they felt "a feature-length yuck fest just didn't compute". To do the film as a horror was put forth after they were inspired by a well noted scene from It's Murder. This moved Raimi to write the short film Clockwork. The three felt the end result was very effective and represented a new direction that their films could take, that of a semi-successful horror film.[11]
This would later lead to research of low-budget horror films at the local drive-in theater. The many films that they watched were the "two films for two dollars", allowing them the chance to document the behavior of what would become their target audience. Campbell quoted, "the message was very clear: Keep the pace fast and furious, and once the horror starts, never let up. 'The gorier the merrier' became our prime directive." Films that were witnessed amongst them included Massacre at Central High and Revenge of the Cheerleaders. The idea to do a "prototype" was commissioned, to prove not only to themselves, but also to potential investors that they were capable of doing a full length horror film. The same year, at Michigan State, Raimi had been studying H. P. Lovecraft and was most impressed with Necronomicon, or simply The Book of the Dead. From these rough concepts, he concocted a short story where a group of four friends unwittingly dig up an Indian burial ground and unleash horrific spirits and demons.[12] In the spring of 1978, filming of Within the Woods started over a three-day weekend, on a budget of $1,600.[13]
Within the Woods, as well as serving as a prototype, had impressed the filmmakers. For a marketing strategy a screening was arranged at their former high school, with a positive response.[14]
Filming was first commissioned for the summer of 1979 in Michigan. In order to organize the budget, Sam Raimi, Robert Tapert and Bruce Campbell bought a few "how to make an independent film" guide publications. The budget was originally centered on $150,000 while shooting with a Super 8 camera. However, due to technical difficulties, it was decided to move it up to 16 mm format, as they wanted to film the project in the style of the many low-budget films at the time that had come out in the 1970s.[15] Since they had little experience in the film industry, the three felt they should buy business suits and briefcases as a means to convince investors that they "had all the answers." A man named Andy Grainger, who was a friend of Tapert and owner of a series of movie theaters, was the first primary investor. He stated, "Fellas, no matter what, just keep the blood running." As a tribute to him, there's a scene in the finished film where an old film projector whirs to life and "projects" blood running down the screen.[16]
Most importantly, Grainger provided the name of a distributor in New York City whom they could approach for possible distribution. The company was Levitt-Pickman Films, who most recently was famous for Groove Tube, starring a very young Chevy Chase. The filmmakers took a train at $40 each, as they knew none of their cars could make an entire round trip road trip. One of Campbell's old girlfriends named Andrea allowed them to stay at her apartment. Andrea's cat fell asleep on Raimi's face without even disturbing him, and Raimi, who is allergic to cats, had his eyes swollen shut.[16]
The Evil Dead (1981)[edit]
Released in 1981, this is the first film in the series. It introduces the series' protagonist, Ash, and the Book of the Dead and what it brings with it.
Evil Dead II (1987)[edit]
Released in 1987, this film is a sequel to the original continuing where the last film ended, (a recap of the previous film is shown in the beginning, though it is often confused as being an edited remake of the beginning of the first film) and shows the horrors of Ash's battling with the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis and demons.
Army of Darkness (1992)[edit]
Released in 1992, this is the third film in the franchise (and the last featuring Ash Williams taking a lead role so far), taking Ash back in time to England in 1300 AD. The movie has horror attributes, but is based mainly on slapstick and action. This time the evil creatures are explicitly referred to as deadites.
Evil Dead (2013)[edit]
|This section does not follow Wikipedia's guidelines on the use of different tenses.
It had been confirmed that a remake would be made of The Evil Dead. It will be produced by Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi, but will not include the Ash character. It was also said that the movie would be about a group of teenagers who go to the cabin and find the book, and the similarities with the original would end there.[17]
However, in August 2007, Bruce Campbell revealed in a radio interview that the proposed remake was "going nowhere" and "fizzled" due to extremely negative fan reaction.[18]
More recently, rumors have suggested that a re-write of a script is being reviewed and Bruce Campbell suggested that in true style of Sam Raimi's films he would do a cameo role, jokingly suggesting that it would be a remake/sequel and Knowby's ghost would be replaced by ghostly Ash.
In July 2008, Raimi stated that he intends to work with his brother Ivan in the development of a sequel, not a remake, and Campbell further supported this by saying that The Evil Dead remake was no longer a possibility.
In April 2011, Bruce Campbell did an AskMeAnything interview on Reddit.com, saying "Newsflash: We are remaking Evil Dead. The script is awesome. I will be one of the producers and possibly play the milk man".[19] He added "In all honesty, we would all love to make another Evil Dead movie. When that will happen? Who can say – we're all working on other jobs right now. We're not trying to dodge anybody's questions, there just isn't that much to talk about. The remake's gonna kick ass – you have my word".[20] On July 13, 2011 it was officially announced, via a press release, that Ghost House Pictures would be producing the reboot of the Evil Dead franchise, with Diablo Cody in the process of revising the script and Fede Alvarez chosen as the director.[21] Actor Shiloh Fernandez is reported cast as the main lead role of David.[22] Bloody Disgusting has reported that Lily Collins is in the lead role as Mia who is a female version of Ash, but on January 24, 2012, Collins has dropped out of the role.[23][24] On February 3, 2012 it was announced that actress Jane Levy, star of the television series Suburgatory would be replacing Collins in the lead role as Mia.[25] Lou Taylor Pucci, Elizabeth Blackmore and Jessica Lucas have joined the cast for the horror film.[26][27]
On August 1, 2012, it was announced that in honor of the reboot due out in 2013, The Evil Dead is coming to the world's largest Halloween event, Knott's Berry Farm's "Halloween Haunt" in Buena Park, CA, also known as Knott's Scary Farm. Knott's has a large log flume ride that goes in and around a large mountain, where the movie will be created for guest to experience the terror firsthand.
Fede Alvarez confirmed the film will use practical effects like the original film and no CGI was used in the scenes shown in the trailer at New York Comic Con. He has stated the special effects in the film are similar to magic and illusion tricks.
An official trailer for the film was released on October 24, 2012. Many familiar elements of the original film are revealed, such as the possessed arm and the infamous tree rape scene, as well as new scenes involving blood-rain and one of the possessed characters splitting their tongue with a utility knife. The trailer was given a red-band status for its excessive use of gore and profanity. This trailer was voted (by many horror magazines & websites) to be the best trailer of 2013.
On Friday March 8, 2013, the film held its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, Texas. The film was received with generally favorable reviews.
At the premiere event for the 2013 film at SXSW, Alvarez announced that a sequel is in the works (but has backed out of writing and directing the film). Sam Raimi confirmed plans to write Evil Dead 4 with his brother; it was later specified that this film would be Army of Darkness 2.[28] At a WonderCon panel in March 2013, Campbell stated that their ultimate plan was for Evil Dead 2 and Raimi's Army of Darkness 2 to be followed by a crossover film which would merge the narratives of Ash and Mia.[5] Campbell had confirmed to reprised his Ash role in Army of Darkness 2.[29] On October 26, Alvarez confirmed on his Twitter that Sam Raimi will be directing Army of Darkness 2.[30] On October 30, 2013, co-writer Sayagues confirmed to Desdhollywood that he and Alvarez won't return for the sequel.[31][32][33] That same month, Alvarez took to his Twitter that the rumor is not true.[32][34] Contrary to popular rumors and even mentions by Campbell himself, Campbell has stated that he may not appear in AoD 2 by stating: "It's all Internet b.s. – there's no reality whatsoever. These random comments slip out of my mouth or Sam Raimi's mouth, next thing you know, we're making a sequel."[35][36]
Further films[edit]
Ash vs. Freddy vs. Jason[edit]
In the documentary "The Untold Saga of The Evil Dead" Rob Tapert states that New Line had said they wanted to do Ash vs Freddy vs Jason: "We thought about it for one second but we knew we would have totally trashed the franchise in doing that, in that there would be no reason to reunite Bruce and Sam for Evil Dead 4 whatever that would be nor would there be any reason to go back and reinvent the original Evil Dead with a hot new filmmaker". A comic book series was produced based on this concept.
Unofficial sequels[edit]
In Italy, The Evil Dead was released under the title La Casa ("The House") and Evil Dead II became La Casa II. These were followed by three unrelated movies: Umberto Lenzi's La Casa 3 (aka Ghosthouse) (1988), Fabrizio Laurenti's La Casa 4 (aka Witchery) (1988) and Claudio Fragasso's La Casa 5 (aka Beyond Darkness) (1990). This is similar to what has happened in George A. Romero's Living Dead series starting with Zombi 2. House II: The Second Story (1987) and The Horror Show (1989) were retitled La Casa 6 and La Casa 7 respectively in their Italian releases.[37]
Awards Pictures, a company that attempted to begin a new line of movies in the series in 2004, announced plans in May 2012 to film an Evil Dead 4, one that has nothing to do with the original films. Because of this, Sam Raimi sued Awards Pictures in an attempt to stop them from making said film, due to his own plan to someday film one himself.[citation needed] In August 2012, U.S. District Judge Dale Fischer entered a default judgment that "permanently enjoined" Awards Pictures from using the names Evil Dead, Evil Dead: Genesis of the Necronomicon, Evil Dead: Genesis of the Necronomicon, Part 2 or Evil Dead: Consequences "as or as part of the title of a motion picture, television program, video game, play, book or any other form of entertainment provided or to be provided through any media."[38]
The Cabin in the Woods also features many references to the film and even features Deadites and the possessed trees although this is considered more a reference than a direct sequel.
Indirect sequels[edit]
Bruce Campbell directed and starred in a film titled My Name Is Bruce.[39] It does not continue the story of Army of Darkness but is a fictionalized portrayal of Bruce living his everyday life in which he is erroneously believed to be as heroic as the Ash character and is hired to fight an ancient spirit. The film was released to a limited number of theaters on October 26, 2008 and was released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on February 10, 2009.
It was revealed at the 2014 San Diego Comic-Con that Sam Raimi was developing an Evil Dead television series. It is being written by Sam Raimi, Ivan Rami, and Bruce Campbell with the plan for Campbell to star in the series. This was further confirmed by Bruce Campbell at Ohio Comic-Con 2014.[40][41] The series, titled Ash vs. the Evil Dead, will air on Starz in 2015 with Sam Raimi writing and directing the first episode and Campbell will reprise his role of Ash.[42][43]

Comic books[edit]
Dark Horse Comics[edit]
In 1992, Dark Horse Comics produced a mini-series adaptation of Army of Darkness adapted and illustrated by John Bolton. A trade paperback of this series was released by Dynamite Entertainment on September 25, 2006.
In 2008, Dark Horse revisited the franchise with a four issue adaptation of the The Evil Dead written by Mark Verheiden and once again illustrated by John Bolton.
Dynamite Entertainment[edit]
In 2004, Dynamite Entertainment acquired the license to publish titles based on Army of Darkness and, in conjunction with Devil's Due Publishing, released the Army of Darkness: Ashes 2 Ashes mini-series. A second mini-series, Army of Darkness: Shop till You Drop Dead followed in 2005. Later that year, Dynamite separated itself from Devil's Due and began focusing entirely on self-published titles featuring the Army of Darkness franchise. This included an ongoing series that began in 2005 and saw Ash battling other horror icon such as Herbert West and Dracula. The series lasted thirteen issues before being rebooted with a second volume in 2007. The second series lasted twenty-seven issues before coming to an end. Over the years, there have also been several one-shot specials as well as crossovers with a wide variety of characters such as, Marvel Zombies, Darkman, Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Xena, Danger Girl and even Barack Obama.
The production team of George Reinblatt, Christopher Bond and Frank Cipolla recently created an Off Broadway show titled Evil Dead: The Musical, based on the film series. Its New York run was directed by Bond and Hinton Battle, who also choreographed the show. Ryan Ward played the part of Ash. Tying in with the midnight movie plot of a group of friends visiting a wooded cabin and unleashing untold evil, performances did not start until 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Previews began October 1 and the show opened November 1 at the New World Stages. It was announced on January 31, 2007 that Evil Dead: The Musical's New York production at New World Stages would close on February 17, 2007. Toronto producers announced a new Toronto production of the show, also starring Ryan Ward, at the Diesel Playhouse. The new production started its running May 1, 2007 and has been announced to end on September 8, 2007.[when?]

If you're like me, you've been watching Lifetime Christmas movies non-stop, but since they're mostly re-runs and you can only handle Jennifer Grey's new face so many times, you'll most likely need to watch some less festive shows as well. This week, there's the live finale of "The Sing-Off," very special episodes of "Family Guy" and "Scrubs," "Big '80s Weekend," and "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," since you'll need something festive to watch while you wrap coal. Keep clicking to check out the previews.

As the Lakers celebrate the second anniversary of Pau Gasol's arrival, everyone, it seems wants to join in the party. Even cranky Gregg Popovich.
Once a major critic of the trade that sent Kwame Brown, then-rookie Javaris Crittenton, the rights to Marc Gasol and first-round picks in 2008 and 2010 to Memphis for Pau Gasol, the Spurs coach now thinks differently.
"They gave up a great player but it helped them extend the franchise's success into the future," Popovich said. "It's shown that they've done a good job. Whatever they were thinking a couple of iterations ahead at the time has paid off for them."
Popovich initially called the trade "beyond comprehension" and that there should be a "trade committee that can scratch all trades that make no sense."

Aidan's braces – phase 2
It's been a month since Aidan got his braces put on and it's looking like that big tooth in the front has already moved back a little so that's encouraging! Yesterday he got two more braces put on. During the appointment the doc thought that maybe he would be able to expose the central incisor (middle one) but after doing quite a bit of cutting on the gums with the lazer he wasn't able to get to the tooth and decided that we would go ahead with the original plan of letting the oral surgeon take care of it, along with the extra tooth that is up there keeping that big tooth from coming down. He's doing pretty good today, in spite of having gum cut away and having a brace attached to a tooth that hasn't come in yet. The whole orthodonic experience is pretty amazing if you think about it! So thankful to be through that first week which was pretty hard. The next hard thing will be the oral surgery which I've heard that even that wont be that big of a deal (although I have a hard time believing it!).
2 Responses to Aidan's braces – phase 2
Looking good, Aidan!! You are a handsome boy and your smile is worth a million!!
I hope it won't cost THAT much, Nana Joan!! :o)

At nearly every live show, whether the band onstage is filling a stadium, lighting up an arena or raising the roof in an intimate club, you're almost guaranteed to run into a few stereotypical characters. You know the types: there's the guy who goes back to the bar or concession stand after every other song to get another drink; the guy who decides to crowd-surf and gets thrown out; the girl who screams in your ear for the entirety of the performance; the dude who thinks it's a bright idea to light up a joint in the middle of the crowd; and of course, most legendary of all, there's the person who, during a momentary lull in the show, shouts, as loudly and belligerently as possible, "PLAY FREE BIRD!!!"
On Saturday March 16, Kalamazoo fans will have a chance to shout those legendary words for real, as Lyrnyrd Skynyrd, the southern rock veterans of "Free Bird" and "Sweet Home Alabama" fame, descend upon Battle Creek's Firekeepers Casino for a sure-to-be-sold-out concert experience.
According to a recent press release, the concert will be an "up close and personal performance for 2,000 fans" in the casino's event center. The band, currently touring in support of their 2012 album, "Last of a Dyin' Breed," dropped their first record in 1973 and released four other albums in the 1970s before a 1977 plane crash killed founding member and frontman, Ronnie Van Zant. The band reunited a decade later, with Ronnie's brother Johnny joining the band and taking over lead vocal duties. They've stayed together ever since, scoring an induction to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 and remaining jukebox staples for every new generation of music listeners along the way.
Tickets for the concert will go on sale tomorrow (Jan. 19) at 10 a.m., with reserved seating costs ranging from $61 to $71.
Also coming to Firekeepers is country star Billy Currington, the man behind hits like "Don't," "That's How Country Boys Roll" and "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right." With 11 million record sales worldwide, a pair of Grammy nominations and seven no. 1 hits on the country charts, Currington is quickly becoming one of Nashville's biggest stars. He will appear at Firekeepers on Saturday, March 2.
Currington's tickets will also go on sale at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning, though prices are slightly lower, ranging from $55 to $65.
Tickets for both shows are only available for audience members 21 year old and up. Purchases can be made online (at firekeeperscasino.com or startickets.com) or in person at the Firekeepers Lobby Box Office. To learn more, call Firekeepers Casino at 877-352-8777.

I'm here for the SP and Company DT Wed! As you probably already knew, I've been working with the Round Sentiments this month. You can find the set in the shop here.
I actually made this card for Paper Crafts Card-a-Day call. Sadly, this one was not picked up (but I did have one that was, as well as a card in the Nov/Dec issue!!)
Even though it wasn't accepted, I hope this card will be loved on Amber's Reject Blog Hop! Like most of my cards, this one is CAS, and I really like how it turned out. I used some more of my polymer clay flowers, and stitched the stems with green thread. The round "Love" sentiment was perfect to go around the tallest flower!


text: I would have to look but I dont think we have recruited equally on the offensive side of the ball. Especially when you take attrition into account. Not one player that starts on defense was a 3 star player out of high school. Every player that starts on D was ranked in the top 12 at their position coming out of high school and 5 5 star players see significant time on the defensive side of the ball.

Document Type Doctoral Thesis Author Kembo, Joshua firstname.lastname@example.com URN etd-03152010-114711 Document Title Social and economic factors influencing under-five mortality in Zimbabwe during 1996-2005 Degree PhD Department School of Health Systems and Public Health Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof J K van Ginneken Supervisor Keywords
- socio-economic factors
- environmental contamination
- infant and child mortality in Zimbabwe
Date 2009-11-27 Availability unrestricted AbstractThis study addressed important issues on infant and child mortality in Zimbabwe. The broad objective of the study is to establish levels and trends of under-5 mortality and to determine the impact of maternal, socioeconomic and environmental contamination variables on infant and child mortality. Data from four DHS surveys conducted in Zimbabwe were used. It was found that mortality at all ages below 5 years old remained more or less constant from the period 1990-1994 to the period 1995-1999 and declined from the period 1995-1999 to 2001-2005. Mortality below 5 years old declined from 102 deaths per 1,000 live births during 1995-1999 to 82 deaths in 2001-2005. This decline was unexpected and it is argued that this decline is probably not genuine. Various types of evidence are provided to support the view that this decline in mortality probably did not take place. Analysis of ZDHS 2005- 06 showed that births of order 6+ and short preceding interval (intervals of less than or equal to 18 months) had the highest infant mortality risk. Infants with these characteristics were significantly more likely (2.75 times) to die in infancy relative to births of order 2-5 and long preceding birth interval (p<0.001). The infant mortality risk associated with multiple births was 2.08 times more relative to singleton births (p<0.001). The results indicated that socioeconomic variables did not have a distinct impact on infant mortality. Determinants of child mortality were different in relative importance from those of infant mortality. The effect of maternal education, though not significant, implied a decline in child mortality with increasing maternal schooling. The provision of piped drinking water and flush toilets to the households had a stronger impact on child mortality than infant mortality. Including HIV prevalence in the models elevated the odds of dying in infancy and childhood stages by 10 percent and 63 percent, respectively. This suggests that HIV/AIDS directly and/or indirectly influences the current levels of under-5 mortality in Zimbabwe. This study supports health policy initiatives stimulating use of family planning methods to increase birth intervals. Family planning programmes should be aimed at educating women and men with low educational levels and those in rural areas about the potential benefits of long-term birth spacing. These and other results are expected to assist policy makers and programme managers in the child health sector to formulate appropriate strategies to improve the situation of under-5 children in Zimbabwe.

Malignaggi to Broner: Shut up and sign the contract
If cotto can't stop Paulie I highley doubt a light Broner canPosted March 18, 2013
the boxer
Yeah if Paulie can stay on the outside pot shotting and frustate Broner w/ movement he can pull it off if the judges arnt involved. And if Broner is stationary like i noticed in his past few fights.Posted March 16, 2013
Steeve Steel
If Paulee's legs can go the full twelve rounds, he may just be able to pull it off. Circling and jabbing in front of his home crowd… Do you believe in magic? I do.Posted March 16, 2013
This is a set up for floyd and broner NEXT BIG WELTERWEIGHT FIGHT THE MONEY VS THE PROBLEM SEE ITS LIKE THIS FLOYD GOT THE RETIREMENT CONTRACT SO WIN OR LOSE HE PAID BRONER NOT THERE YET SO BRONER GET A WELTER BELT FLOYD KEEPS HIS THAT KID IS THE BIGGEST THREAT TO MAYWEATHER SO IF MAY GOIN TO LOOSE HE GONNA GIVE BRONER THE CHANCE TO GET HIS RETIREMENT JUST LIKE KOSTA DID FOR HATTON SO I GET IT AND EVEN IF FLOYD HE CAN STILL FIGHT MANNY AND THEM FOR BIG BUCKSPosted March 16, 2013
Uk fight fan
Malignaggi making nose to hype up the fight so he makes more money #very basicPosted March 16, 2013
I've said it before…I'll say it again : TALK IS CHEAP
Murder man
Broner should take a fight or 2 at 140 1st. The jump to 147 so soon may be too much. But if he jumps to 147 who better to fight than malinaggi? He is a name but soft punching, good skills, not as quick and fast as he use to be! He cant hurt broner at all. If broner loses it doesnt hurt him he still young. I would like to see paulie take on thurman! A true welterweight! But he wont mess w thurman!Posted March 16, 2013
Writer wants to call pauly old now just because broner is facing him… Guy is what 30… 31…. So I guess anybody that adrian fights from now on is old then when broner is in his thirtys anyone he figts is tooo green.Posted March 16, 2013
There is no contract to sign untill the network part is negotiated…. Pauly is talking very idiotic. Hope he is not doing a doniare. Talk non truth b.s. Then try and pull out of the fight.Posted March 16, 2013
Demarco did'nt stand in front of Broner for 12 rounds. He was Ko! Remember that?Posted March 16, 2013
There are EURO fighters and there are EURO stars.

people will get absolutely shocked……………..malignaggi is a master master boxer with tons of speed tons of skill and tons of experience with excelent ring generalship…………..broner is way way out of his class for this one…..he will never touch pauly…..Posted March 16, 2013
Haole Surfer
I dunno … Broner moving up 2weight classes? How will that affect him? Speed? Punching power? I think Paulie's got a better shot than most give him credit for. Upset by the Magic Man? I think so …Posted March 16, 2013
I have faith that Paulie will teach this guy a lesson. Paulie has a good chin. And broner lack power. Damn! I'll fight him with no training,LOL Go Paulie!Posted March 16, 2013
the boxer
Broner will be exposed even if he wins to the light hitting boxer.Posted March 16, 2013
if cotto and hatton didn't knock out paulie, i doubt broner can. too many brainwashed kids in these forums. paulie may not win but too say he doesn't have a chance or he is scared, is stupid. paulie will fight anyone. it doesn't matter if he plucks his eyebrows or tans. he's a fighter and more of a street kid than most of the oreos on here.Posted March 16, 2013
Broner should be able to defeat Malignaggi fairly easily. However, Malignaggi is experienced and will have some success finding Broner through his defense. Malignaggi's best strategy is to jab and counter from the outside and attempt to be a moving target for 12 rounds. History dictates that Malgnaggi loses 12 a round UD, he has never won a "big fight".Posted March 16, 2013
Mr. Mexican
broner will kick paulie assPosted March 16, 2013
sorry paulie but broner will ko by 6 no later than 8 he will tag you with too many shots broner has good skills when he steps it up a couple of notches, but I would luv to be proven wrong , so jump right on him paulie cause broner always starts slow ,but that's just so he can measure up the other fighter.
it time for a change
Broner is fight weak fights he been call out by strong arrival there is Rios. Sergio Thompson. Vasquez. Lucas. Alexander he had trouble with ponce. Come on who is nobody yet. Fight real top fighterPosted March 16, 2013
Did no one see paulie vs cano..??…Paulie is gonna come forward and try to slip jabs and get caught
Don't b shocked to c broner lose cause his ass thinks he can walk through paulie and end up walking into a fluke shot!Posted March 15, 2013
paulie never been Ko tho he been tko but thats nothing broner wont be able to stop him probably just beat him up if broner carries the power he has to welter weight. then agin most people are just pointing to what broner could do not what paulie could do and what he can do very good. shoulder rolls worst enemy is the jab…after a few rounds of wasted energy that isPosted March 15, 2013
WHAT" all this talk & no contract been sign Yet! SMH" YA TU SABE!Posted March 15, 2013
2nd Opinion
Pauli your about to get your string pulled bye,THE PUPPIT MASTER!!Posted March 15, 2013
Boxers respect
I think it's a good test for Broner he's facing a good boxer Paulie may lack power which is in Broners favor but he risks a chance of being schooled we seen what the happened in Broners last fight that little guy Reese did give him some trouble in the first few rounds just lacked the power to get Broners respect he may talk like Floyd copy the style and everything else but he needs to get tested its a good thing he decided to skip the 140 division cause I believe Lucas and Brando would floor this wanna bePosted March 15, 2013
decide the purse and both sign and broner will have another beltPosted March 15, 2013

Little Maple Cabinetcomments (3) January 3rd, 2014 in Reader's Gallery
Thirstypeanut, member
This is a small cabinet made of hard maple. The two doors on the left are sliding doors, and the one on the right is hinged. The slats in the door frames are concave, planed with a round bottom plane. They are then tennoned into an oversized mortise in the frame, then secured with a single brad. This allows the gaps between them to change equally as the panels expand and contract.
The hinges are hand made knife hinges with a black patina, and the door pull is hand carved out of Burmese Blackwood. There are six black leather feet, so that this cabinet sits on a desk or mantle without scratching the surface it is on.

Spaying & Neutering
Low-cost spay/neuter services
These services are by appointment only. Please call (309) 787-6830 to schedule yours.
For Dogs
|Service Type
|Under 50lbs
|Over 50lbs
Due to the increased difficulty with the surgical process, any female dog that is considered to be morbidly obese or not within the normal, healthy weight range for their breed (which will be assessed on an individual basis by our vet), there will be a $10 - $25 increase in price above the original cost for a dog spay.
For Cats
|Service Type
Surgical procedures are performed by appointment only. We promote and perform early age spaying and neutering. Surgeries can be performed at the earliest, 8 weeks or 2 pounds but should be done prior to the animal reaching 6 months of age. Our surgery days are Monday's, Tuesday's and Thursday's every week.
Too many pets, not enough homes
Each hour, approximately 575 cats and dogs are euthanized in this country. Spaying and neutering your pets can easily reduce this terrible waste of life. This is a simple surgical procedure prevents pets from reproducing and also has numerous other health benefits for animals.
As a pet owner, you have the choice to add to the overpopulation problem or help end it. There is only 1 home for every 10 puppies or kittens born. If your pet has a litter and you are able to find homes for the animals, you could in reality have eliminated potential homes for the millions of homeless animals awaiting adoption. Besides giving other pets a chance at a loving home, altering your pets gives them and you a lot of benefits you may not be aware of:
Your pet will be a more content family member
Dogs and cats are domestic and have a natural affection for people. However, when they are not altered they have the instinct to mate. This urge leads to roaming, fighting, aggression, excessive barking, howling, and other unwelcome behaviors. Neutered pets are freed of this urge and the resulting bothersome behaviors, making a calmer and more content pet. If you have more than one pet, you'll find your neutered pets get along much better with each other
Your pet will be healthier
Altered pets are less likely to roam from home and be injured in fights or killed in traffic. In fact, altered pets have twice the average life expectancy of unaltered pets, partly due to a much lower chance of suffering from breast, uterine, prostate and testicular cancers. Dogs and cats can be altered as early as eight weeks or anytime beyond that age. Females can be spayed when they're in season or early pregnancy, but the risks are somewhat greater. (Be sure to inform your veterinarian of her condition.) The best and easiest thing for you and your pet is to get her spayed as early as possible and before she comes in season the first time. Waiting until after her first heat period does nothing for either of you. Make an appointment with your veterinarian. If the expense is a problem, ask about the low-cost spay/neuter clinics in your area.

What is Wing Tsjun ?
Wing Tsjun (WT) originates from China and belongs to the Kung-Fu family (Kung-Fu is Chinese for "hard work").
According to the legend, this martial arts system was developed by two women roughly 300 years ago, during the Chinese Civil War. It was passed on to relatives and acquaintances and has improved over many years.
Wing Tsjun is not to be thought of as a martial art, because self-defense in everyday life unfortunately does not follow sporting rules.
The goal of this self-defense system is to convey knowledge and techniques that allow anyone to be able to act in hazardous situations. You cannot meet a bodily superior opponent with power. That is why WT follows simple and therefore easy-to-learn principles which can flow without having to apply one's own strength.
So, it is possible even for a "weak" person to face a "strong" attacker.
Through role-plays students are taught to envision themselves in everyday situations and to sovereignly handle them (being hit-on in the dance club, being nervous about exams, dealing with fear, facing needy situations etc.).
Recognise and avoid danger
Our motto:
Every avoided fight is a fight won.
If, however, a fight is inevitable, the WT student learns effective techniques to escape the danger as quickly as possible.
The Wing Tsjun class offers many advantages:
Your confidence will be strengthened and your body will become more fit. Learn to remain calm in stressful situations and to react in a relaxed manner. Learn to discover your body anew and find out what you are capable of. But most of all, Wing Tsjun is fun!
Concentration and balance exercises as well as stretching, strengthening and endurance sequences also belong to the class; so does the simulation of frightful moments and handling them during role-play. Be critical. Give Wing Tsjun a chance at an obligation-free trial class.
Stand-Up for Yourself - Stand-Up for Others - Stand-Up to Life!
Our students begin with their martial arts studies for different reasons, and each comes to us with varying degrees of ability. While Wing Tsjun is known around the world as one of the most effective and complex forms of martial arts with its efficient strategies and techniques, students easily learn at their own pace and ability level so they reach their own personal goals.
We take great pride in the fact that we are one of the most rapidly growing martial arts associations worldwide. We believe, the reason for this success is that our students realize that our mission is not just to teach self-defense, but also fostering the personal development of each and every Wing Tsjun student. We offer programs for adults and children, each fostering the development of integrity, self-control, confidence, perseverance, respect, loyalty and self-esteem.
Here are some of the benefits Wing Tsjun training can give you...
Improved Fitness
Wing Tsjun techniques develop and strengthen the muscles in your arms, legs and torso. You burn calories during the classes and strenghten your stamina. You increase your achievment potential and get to know your physical limits. Through the personal mentoring during the classes, you get to expand these limits in a way that is fun and fulfilling.
When speaking of self-defense Wing Tsjun is the undisputed market leader. But not only the techniques of the system make the student capable to defend himself. The development of your physical and mental strength through the training gives you the power to protect yourself and others.
Achieving goals and knowing you have the ability and strength to defend yourself are great confidence boosters. In role-plays the student is being confronted with simulated stressful situations. This helps him to build up a self-confidence that is not only used to defend himself, but he can also benefit from it for instance at a presentation at work or at an exam at school.
It is a great honor to share knowledge! Our instructors take their role seriously!
At Wing Tsjun International we believe that quality students come from quality instruction. In order to achieve quality instruction, we must have the best instructors. That?s why we carefully select our training staff and hold them to stringent standards for excellence in ongoing training, performance, instruction and attitude. Each of our internationally certified instructors are graduates of intensive, long lasting training, and their methods are constantly improved and updated through continued training at the Wing Tsjun International headquarters and under supervision of the national head-instructors.

Clean Coal: Can Coal Really be Clean?
Sulfur Removal
The first method is to strip coal of any sulfur it may contain before it is actually burned. Although sulfur makes up anywhere from 10 to less than 1 percent of coal, it is important to get rid of before combustion because in the external environment sulfur is the main ingredient of acid rain. There are two ways in which sulfur is attached: 1) it can be chemically bound to coal's hydrogen and carbon atoms or, 2) it can be an impurity, attached by extraneous physical properties. The latter is what is extracted when coal is washed.
To separate the sulfur, coal is ground into small pieces and then ran through a water filter. Sulfur is more dense than coal, so the sulfur sinks to the bottom while the coal remains floating at the top. Coal can then be burned with no fears of acid rain.
Unfortunately no cost effect method has yet been discovered to remove the organic sulfur that is part of coal's molecular structure, in other words, it cannot be simply washed.
Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC)
IGCC is a method employed in many power plants which aspires to squeeze the most amount of energy out of the combustion of coal. In the presence of oxygen and steam, coal reacts and is converted into a gas composed of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide commonly known as a syngas. Coincidently, this reaction ends up filtering out nearly all of the pollution-causing impurities like sulfur and nitrogen oxides.
The most prominent use of syngas is to burn it inside of a turbine to create an enormous amount of heat that is used to spin that turbine so it can generate electricity. This process is a doubly whammy because this first turbine will also bring about additional waste heat that can be used to boil water, create steam, and run a second turbine that produces electricity.
The key environmental factors you should remember about an IGCC system is its ability to prevent pollution (by erasing the imperfections through gasification) and using and reusing waste heat for actual energy instead of just letting it dissipate and be, well, wasted.
Officially titled flue gas desulferization units, scrubbers work to collect sulfur dioxidea major pollutantbefore they exit into the outside environment. Wet scrubbers utilize a mixture of powdered limestone and water that is sprayed through high pressure nozzles onto gases leaving through the flues of the coal plant. The limestone blend then traps emissions creating a gooey paste on the inside of the flues that eventually has to be processed. But none the less, scrubbers are very affective at what they are designed to do, the newest ones are able to catch up to 99% of all sulfur dioxide!
Dry scrubbers have a circulating fluid bed that is composed of hydrated lime and water, which is used to regulate temperature. The flue gases are forced through this bed of liquid, the sulfur dioxide then binds with the lime and is prevented from external release.
Electrostatic Precipitators
Put very simply, electrostatic precipitators are electromagnetic fields that are attached to filters in flues called collection plates. The charged electromagnetic field attracts particles and therefore prevents the particles (like ash and dust) from escaping out the flue. This keeps the junk that causes allergies and smog out of the skies.
Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS)
If you haven't yet noticed, there has been no explanation of how exactly coal plants would prevent carbon dioxide release. I mean, isn't that what all this global warming hype is all about? Yeah, that's one part, but scientists report that coal is the leading contributor to global warming, acid rain, toxic airborne particulates, and smog. So don't be so upset we haven't discussed the big C-O-2 yet, coal has a lot on its plate right now as far as pollution goes.
The World Coal Institute has a plan to lasso carbon dioxide, they want to stick it in the ground, just bury it. As an environmentalist, this at first seems like a stupid idea. It mimics our genius lets just hide it underground and then build stuff on top of it idea for dealing with garbage disposal. But the world is running out of natural carbon sinks. As the ocean warms, its ability to hold carbon diminishes; as forests are cut down, trees that once took in carbon dioxide are now releasing it. And to be quite honest, we are producing so much carbon dioxide these days that we really do need some place to put it besides the atmosphere.
Carbon capture involves pumping coal at least 800 meters below ground where the pressure of the earth will keep it in a liquid form for thousands to millions of years. The CO2 is pumped down into pockets of the earth that have already been vacated due to previous oil or coal excavation. Ironically, the oil industry has already performed this act of injecting the greenhouse gas into oil fields that have been producing less and less fuel. The carbon is actually proven to boost petroleum extracted from a dry oil well.
Many environmentalists argue that this idea is dangerous. Scientists worry about deep sea creatures' sensitivity to change in levels of carbon dioxide in their environment and the pH, which is already shifting due to warming waters. Is it safe? No one is yet completely sure but be aware that carbon storage is a very real and an already implemented method for combating global warming.
Coal Extraction and Mountain Top Mining
Emission removal is the most crucial aspect in curving coal's negative environmental effects and through the topics discussed above, the industry is doing a great job at keeping pollutants out of the atmosphere while still providing the world with ample amounts of energy. But to green the burning of coal, the industry should also examine how they extract this precious resource. Chopping the heads off mountains and leaving the excavation site as a wasteland is not very eco-friendly. The coal industry resorted to this ecologically devastating practice after underground mining proved too dangerous for miners. However, there are no solutions to mountain top mining. If coal should be deemed clean then an alternative to this method needs to be explored.
It will be very interesting to see how the next United States administration develops and deploys clean coal technology as part of a larger national energy plan!
