Deletion of The Wedding of River Song Edit
The Radio Times also confirmed The Pandorica Opens as the title of S5E12. But, as we found out, The Pandorica Opens was the name of a painting, and the article about the episode had to be moved to The Pandorica Opens (TV story). There's still every chance that the story might well be named after a physical thing in the DWU. Deletion was completely in line with tardis:spoiler policy, which allows withholding creation of episode articles until just after premiere broadcast has occurred.

- Heh, you're persistent, I'll grant you that. But you're also persistently missing the point. No one doubts the episode name. The issue is whether the name "The Wedding of River Song" names something else in the DWU. Please see talk:The Wedding of River Song.

Christmas cheer Edit
As this fiftieth anniversary year comes to a close, we here at Tardis just want to thank you for being a part of our community — even if you haven't edited here in a while. If you have edited with us this year, then thanks for all your hard work.
This year has seen an impressive amount of growth. We've added about 11,000 pages this year, which is frankly incredible for a wiki this big. November was predictably one of the busiest months we've ever had: over 500 unique editors pitched in. It was the highest number of editors in wiki history for a year in which only one programme in the DWU was active. And our viewing stats have been through the roof. We've averaged well over 2 million page views each week for the last two months, with some weeks seeing over 4 million views!
We've received an unprecedented level of support from Wikia Staff, resulting in all sorts of new goodies and productive new relationships. And we've recently decided to lift almost every block we've ever made so as to allow most everyone a second chance to be part of our community.
2014 promises to build on this year's foundations, especially since we've got a full, unbroken series coming up — something that hasn't happened since 2011. We hope you'll stick with us — or return to the Tardis — so that you can be a part of the fun!

Sort of a follow up to my last post with sitter questions...
Last night DH and I went to a concert and hired a sitter for the first time. In the past we've only ever left them with family. To start our evening, we drove 1.5 hours in traffic to the venue only to find out that the band wasn't there and would be starting at least 1.5 hours late. The 1st band on wasn't even the band I wanted to see which means by the time we got to see who we wanted to, the sitter would have already been 5 hours in. So we decided to call it a loss and left.....our big night out!!
I had previously arranged for my mil to stop at our house to help the sitter during bedtime as I was very apprehensive to have essentially a stranger handle all that herself. When we got home I asked how everything was and she told me that my one guy didn't eat much dinner, which is sometimes normal but that everything else was ok. Then I saw his bottle that wasn't even touched and I started to feel a little uneasy. That means he hadnt eaten anything since 3pm. But she told me everything went ok. When I went in to check on them, the one who didn't eat just did not look himself to me, his hair was wet from sweat and he just looked wiped (he was sleeping) so I knew something was off. So she left and I called my mil to find out that the sitter told her he cried the entire time we were gone, continued to cry why my mil was there and just cried himself to sleep. Broke. My. Heart.
The whole evening left me feeling really discouraged. I know this is the age where separation anxiety starts but I can't imagine it normal for a baby to cry for 3 hours and not eating!! I talked to my friend about it and she kinda brushed it off as no big deal but being that he's my finicky eater/small one to begin with I was very upset by it. It just left me feeling like DH and I can't ever do anything unless family stays. Does it get better?!?! Not to mention the financial loss left me feeling upset. We wasted all the money in the tickets (which I can't get a refund on) and paid the sitter almost $100 for us to basically drive around and my child cry himself to sleep. Btw, I'm in no way blaming her for this, I know she did what she could, I'm just feeling seriously discouraged today. We barely ever get out and the one night we do its a complete flop. Sigh. Thanks for listening and if anyone has any encouragement on the separation anxiety I'm all ears!!! And I'm also curious to know if you would confront the sitter and tell her going forward she needs to be more open about what goes on. TIA.
I am so sorry about your experience but the one comment made about "no one can love your child unless you have a blood attachment" is not always true.
I have been a nanny for more than 19 yrs and I ALWAYS treat the babies/children I watch as if my own.
I am sure that it will be very hard for you to trust another sitter but hopefully you find one that you can trust and maybe try a shorter date night like others have said. Good luck to you!!
Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months.

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

text: DIGITAL TREASURES : Item Viewer home : browse : advanced search : preferences : my favorites : about : help add to favorites : reference url back to results : previous : next Quilt, several squares, basket design, Buckland, Mass., circa 1860 TitleQuilt, several squares, basket design, Buckland, Mass., circa 1860 Full Size Imagehttp://dlib.cwmars.org/cdm4/images/full_size/Buckland/40.jpg SubjectQuilts; Quilted goods; Coverlets; Buckland (Mass.); Sterling (Mass.); Ashfield (Mass.); Shelburne (Mass.) DescriptionA number of squares of a circa 1860 quilt which was given to the Buckland Historical Society by the Sterling [Mass.] Historical Society in October 2005. As the quilt originated in Buckland Mass., the Sterling Society generously returned it to its place of origin. This quilt measures approximately 6 feet wide by 7 feet long. It contains 42 basket squares, of which 24 or 26 squares appear to be signed. The pattern of the squares is such that, when laid out on a bed, the handles of the baskets are oriented to the center of the bed, 3 rows each on the left and on the right. There are 7 baskets in each row from head board to foot board, 6 rows in total. The remaining squares that make up the quilt are without color, as is the back of the quilt. The entire piece is hand stitched, and the quilted pattern follows the basket design. The handles of the baskets are appliqued. Each basket square is pieced together with 2 inch squares, 1 inch triangles, and rectangular-shaped pieces of fabric in various colors and patterns. The overall condition of the quilt might be considered as fair, as it has yellowed, has some stains, and some of the fabrics and stitches have deteriorated. The quilt had been gifted to the Sterling Historical Society sometime after their incorporation in 1963 by Mrs. Roy Crosby. The documentation that accompanied the quilt states that Mrs. Crosby was formerly of Piper's Corner in Sterling. Mrs. Crosby included a note that reads, This quilt was given to my parents when Father preached in Buckland - his first appointment in N. E. Conference. This is the year of 1941 - so the quilt must be nearly 90 yrs old. We have since learned that during the 1950's and 1960's, Mrs. Crosby lived with her husband at the corner of what is now Princeton Road and Main Street in Sterling, Mass. We have also learned that her name was Mildred B., but her maiden name, the surname of her father whom she says preached in Buckland, is unknown. Without Mrs. Crosby's maiden name, we have been unable to determine which Buckland preacher this quilt was presented to in 1941. Census and genealogical resources indicate that this quilt may have been signed sometime around 1850 to 1860. Nearly all of the surnames listed can be found among the families who lived in Buckland and the bordering towns of Ashfield and Shelburne, at least during the 1840's to 1880's, and many surnames are recognizable through the 1900's right on up until 2010. For example, Henrietta Hubbard, (born about. 1825 and wife of Joseph), can be found in the U.S. Federal Census records in Buckland from 1850 to 1870. In the 1850 U. S. Federal Census, Augusta Butler was 14 years old and living in Buckland in the same household as Caroline Butler, who was 10 years old. Joab Woodard is listed in Buckland in the 1860 U. S. Federal Census as being 28 years old. The signatures, which appear on the basket squares only, are in black ink. Each signature is in a different penmanship. Many signatures have faded to the point of being impossible to read, and several have disappeared altogether. Using the original documentation from Sterling, along with a recent visual inspection of the quilt, transcription of the signatures is as follows: Augusta Butler, Caroline Butler, Leander Butler*, Sylvia Butler, Sarah Ann Elmer, Esther Gilbert, Almond Howes*, Caroline Howes, James Howes, Lucinda Howes, Sally Howes, Sarah F Howes, Sophia Howes, Sophrenia G Howes, Henrietta Hubbard, Buckland, Olive F Jones, Clarissa Smith, Sarah Stetson, Buckland, Tingah Welles, Ellen Whitney, Elsie Whitney, Angeline Williams, Elbert Wood**, Everett Wood, Joab Woodward, Buckland, and Sarah G Woodward, Buckland. *The names Leander Butler and Almond Howes do not appear on the Sterling document, but inspection of the quilt in November 2009 indicates these names/signatures. **Elbert Wood's signature could not be found upon inspection November 2009.

Katie's Healthy Bites: Mother's Day Strataby Katie Cavuto-Boyle in Uncategorized, May 8, 2010
For Mother's Day, nothing beats breakfast in bed or a special brunch made for Mom. This is a wonderful recipe to use up day-old bread and you can also make it ahead. It's filling, savory and hits the spot.
Mother's Day Strata
Servings: 12
• 3 cups skim milk
• 6 whole eggs
• 6 egg whites
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 10 (1 1/2-ounce) slices whole grain bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
• 2 cups cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 can artichoke hearts in brine, quartered
• 3 ounces goat cheese
• Salt and pepper
• Cooking spray
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place milk, whole eggs, egg whites, goat cheese and thyme in a blender; process until smooth. Pour into a large bowl. Add bread cubes; stir gently to combine. Let stand 10 minutes.
While the bread is soaking, heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add the mushrooms and saute for 8 to 10 minutes or until browned. Season with salt and pepper.
Coat a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spread half the bread mixture in the bottom of the pan. Arrange the mushrooms and artichokes on top of the bread then cover it with the remaining bread.
Bake strata at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until edges are bubbly. Let stand 15 minutes.
* You can assemble the strata and refrigerate overnight then bake in the morning.
Note: I made half the recipe and layered it in a greased (cooking spray) muffin tin then baked it for 15 minutes.

About this cute White-winged TernThe White-winged Tern (or White-winged Black Tern, which is the older alternative name), is a small tern generally found in or near bodies of fresh water from Southeastern Europe to Australia. It is a scarce vagrant in North America, mainly on the Atlantic coast, but there have been a few records on the Pacific coast and inland in the Great Lakes area.
Unlike 'white' (Sterna) terns, these birds do not dive for fish, but fly slowly over the water to surface-pick items on the surface and catch insects in flight. They mainly eat insects and small fish.

Types of service-learning activities include direct service, indirect service, advocacy, and community-based research. Who is served, and how they are served, distinguishes the different types.
Direct service activities are those that require personal contact with people in need. This type of service is generally the most rewarding for students because they receive immediate positive feedback during the process of helping others. Examples of direct service activities include students' working with senior citizens in an intergenerational project or reading to small children. Direct service teaches students to take responsibility for their actions. Students also learn that they can make a difference.
Indirect experiences are commonly implemented in schools because they are easy to organize and they involve students' working behind the scene. These activities are centered in channeling resources to the problem rather than working directly with an individual who may need the service. Often students do not come in contact with the people they serve. Examples of indirect service include collecting food or toys for disadvantaged families and participating in landscaping a community park or other environmental projects. Indirect service projects are generally done by a group. They teach teamwork and organizational skills.
Advocacy as a service experience requires students to lend their voices and talents to the effort to eliminate the causes of a specific problem and to make the public aware of the problem. Activities may include making presentations to the community about particular issues or distributing literature about the issues throughout the neighborhood. Students learn to present their concerns clearly, to be concise in presenting their ideas, and to suggest feasible solutions.
Community-based Research (CBR) can be defined as a partnership of students, faculty, and community partners who collaboratively engage in research with the purpose of solving a pressing community problem or effecting social change. Typical CRB projects include faculty, students and community partners working together to focus local attention on pressing community needs, research and evaluate new programs, evaluate and assess existing programs, or create qualitative and quantitative research tools.

It's quite the night for porch meet-and-greets. Jack corners Emily as she comes back from her showdown with Takeda. "You're really going to marry Daniel?" asks Jack. "What's different this time around?" Emily admits that she tried to tell him that she initially broke off her engagement because of him, but Amanda showed up at precisely the wrong time. Suddenly he had a whole new life -- and no place for her in it. Emily promises that one day she'll explain everything, but that's just not enough for Jack right now.
Next up is Nolan: He updates Emily on the Fa1c0n's riddle, admitting that he has no idea how to solve it. And the clock is ticking. Emily tells Nolan that the Initiative's plan is imminent, according to Takeda. But Nolan knows that the program can't work without the Fa1c0n. Daniel interrupts their strategy sesh to inform Ems that he's got to go bail Charlotte out of jail before his parents find out she was arrested. "The last thing she needs is a lecture from those two model citizens." Honestly, the girl's a chip off the old block. At this point, basically the entire family's been arrested. It's almost a point of pride. Emily tosses off a line about how Nolan must know who she's I'm fighting for (Aiden, not Daniel), and you can see the light bulb go on over Nolan's head. The answer to the riddle, natch: It's in Street Fighter, the arcade game the Fa1c0n challenged Nolan to. Eureka! He phones Aiden, but the Brit is otherwise occupied… And here's where this episode started to get seriously insane (and by insane, I mean insanely good): Takeda challenges Aiden to a Kill Bill-worthy showdown. And though it looked for all the world as though Aiden was going to die, it's Takeda who meets the business end of a katana. That's right: Takeda is dead!
But wait! This isn't even the episode's biggest reveal. Daniel goes to pick up Charlotte in jail, only to learn that all of her lashing out is because she doesn't want to bring someone else into her family to hurt. Wait a second… "Daniel, I'm pregnant," she confesses. I actually screamed at my TV at that moment.
Victoria visits Jack at the Stowaway -- and despite all Emily's warnings, Jack still agrees to team up with her to destroy his gubernatorial campaign. What he doesn't know is that it's actually being governor that will do the worst damage, as we learned from Alison earlier on. So what's V up to?
Never mind that, though: It was the episode's finale that was the real kicker. First, having secured the Fa1c0n's code from Street Fighter, Nolan hacks into the Graysons' bank accounts using Carrion. Emily walks in on him and Aiden just a second too late. "Aiden, we're not ready for this," she warns, but Aiden empties the Graysons' accounts anyway, likely to due the murderous adrenaline coursing through his veins. And then… the power goes out. All across New York. Shame on you, Nolan. The Fa1c0n just played you like a fiddle. By imputing her code, he accidentally activated the Initiative's plan. As Will Smith in Independence Day would say: Oops.
Whew, that was a heck an episode, amiright? And we're not even at the finale yet! What are your thoughts on Takeda's death? Charlotte's pregnancy? The Graysons' bankruptcy? The Initiative's plan? Any predictions for next week's two-hour finale? Share below!

I'm lucky to be married to an extremely wonderful, caring and beautiful wife; she's fantastic in every way and I love her dearly. After she's had a martini or two she talks about a fantasy of having two men make mad, passionate love to her with the total testosterone focused on her. I'm agreeable as I think that would be incredibly hot to experience for her and me. I've teed up two willing hunky guys a few times, me being the third-man in, but she always says, "just kidding." Have any thoughts?

Thousands of anime fans arrive in Manchester
Updated On: Oct 18 2013 05:00:00 PM EDT
If you see some people dressed up in unusual costumes walking around downtown Manchester this weekend, don't be alarmed.
Click to watch News 9's coverage.
Thousands of fans of anime -- Japanese animation -- are gathering at the Raddison Hotel this weekend for a convention.
It's called Another Anime Convention, and it brings together fans of Japanese animation and video games. Pokemon is popular among many of those attending.
"There's different genres, like horror, sci-fi, magi girls," said convention-goer Kylie McWilliams. "My favorite's the magi girl one."
This is the eighth year for the convention in Manchester. Organizers said about 3,000 people have registered, but more are expected to show up.
Many at the convention were dressed up as characters from TV shows, video games or comic books.
"I always do different combos with Deadpool," said Kevin Bernier. "This time, I'm Deadpool, but dressed up as a character from Attack On Titan, which is new anime that just came out this summer."
"It's kind of like being myself, because I love to dress up, but it's something different from me," said Lauren Bergquist.
Several panels will be held at the convention, including ones featuring voice actors from anime shows. Of course you remember that voice as Key-ton from the show Gurren Lagann. Christopher Smith does English voiceover for several anime cartoons and is known as the voice of Kittan from the show "Gurren Lagann."
"It's amazingly popular," Smith said. "They just churn out so much content in Japan, and the fans here just eat it up."
Anime is a big business with a global reach, and this weekend's convention is just the place to get whatever type of merchandise you might want.
There are workshops and skits, but attendees said it's mostly about sharing.
"It's really to have a good time, be accepted by everything, show your geek pride," said organizer Lisa Sussenberger.
"It's a lot of fun, and it's nice to have a group of friends who do it, so I'm not the only one," said attendee Holly Medeiros.

J Holiday - Round 2
Production: Various
Lead Single: It's Yours
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 13 votes )
It's not easy being a male R&B sex symbol. Sure, at first it's fun to watch girls...
Fans can also check out J. Holiday's previous albums: J. Holiday - Guilty Conscience (Sampler)
DJBooth Album Review
That's why even though women across the country orgasm at the mere thought of J Holiday singing, he still needed to prove he could be a legitimate and long-lived musical force. Mission accomplished. Holiday shows that he's more than a sex symbol with his aptly-titled Round 2, the slim singer's follow up to 2007's surprise smash Back of My Lac. Round 2 finds Holiday shifting away from Lac's harder-edged image in favor of a smoother sound, resulting in a well-crafted album that shows that while Holiday's got a ways to go before he reaches elite status, no one will ever be able to call him a one-hit wonder again.
Holiday exploded out of relative obscurity to the top of the charts on the strength of his smash hits Bed and Suffocate, two slow burners that cemented his status as a baby makin music machine. Since the former was helmed by The-Dream, who we recently confirmed is the motherf**king man, the public can be forgiven if they wondered how Round 2 would fare without the helping hand of the Radio Killer. Holiday's first attempt to recapture the magic is the lead single It's Yours, a synth-heavy track that slowly grinds while Holiday lays down the same "can't get enough of you" lyrics that served him so well on his first go round. It's Yours is an admirable attempt to walk the thin line between pop and R&B, but it lacks that intangible appeal that make Bed so unforgettable. If any track off Round 2 has the potential to blow up it might just be Wrong Lover, a storytelling cut that brings on Rick Ross for a dope guest verse while Holiday charismatically falsettos across the laid-back beat. I don't know if there's another Suffocate-level smash on this album, but I would still expect to hear Round 2's best and brightest on a radio near year you very soon.
Everyone at the top of the music industry does something better than anyone else. No one can top Ne-Yo on pure songwriting, no one works an auto-tune like T-Pain, and who else can drop heartbreaking soul vocals like Anthony Hamilton? For his part, Holiday sounds like he's still trying to figure out what his thing's going to be. Is it going to be Jodeci-esque bedroom burners? If so then Round 2's got an example of Holiday's power to inspire heat between the sheets with his bumping Make That Sound, a burner that showcases his ability to ride a rhythm with the same skill that first won his legions of female fans. Or is he going to own the sensitive slow jam? Fly is Round 2's foray into the full on break-up song world, complete with 90's rock ballad style drum fills and a teary vocal performance from Holiday. Ultimately, Round 2 covers a lot of additional thematic ground, from the social consciousness of Homeless to the acoustically-oriented Run Into My Arms, but while the range is certainly impressive, I'm still unsure what Holiday's claim to fame is going to be - and it sounds like he is too.
Make no mistake, Round 2 is still better than 90-percent of the albums that will come out this year, so let's end this review on a high note (much like Holiday likes to do on his songs). Any true music fan will love Sing 2 U, a track Holiday writes using famous lines from R&B's past, from R. Kelly's "I don't see nothin wrong with a little bump n'grind" to Ginuwine's "every freakin night and every freakin day." Similarly exhilarating is the surprisingly rocking I Tried, a track that has Holiday breaking out of the box to deliver one of the album's most memorable tracks. So is Holiday still a sex symbol? Yes, but on Round 2 he proves he's something much more valuable, a musician.

By definition, any discussion about launching the next century
of flight has to include NASA. At EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2004
Wednesday (July 28), Theater in the Woods hosts a special NASA
evening presentation that will highlight several of the agency's
projects, most notably the X-43 Hyper X aircraft and its successful
Mach 7 mission over the Pacific Ocean on March 27 this year. The
X-43 was the first airborne test of a supersonic combustion ramjet
engine (scramjet) and is scheduled to attempt a Mach 10 flight in
the fall.
Cam Martin of NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center in Edwards
(CA), gave a glimpse of what's in store for attendees of the
special evening program. "We are going to have the people who were
hands-on with that (X-43) mission, including extensive video
footage, and they will talk about this exciting mission," Martin
said. "Then they will discuss things that are over the horizon,
such as what general aviation airplanes of the future will look
like to what would flight on other planets look like. Our goal is
to make the evening program informative and entertaining."
Martin, whose first trip to Oshkosh was in 1989, said the EAA
event is especially popular among NASA types because of the
audience. "We were glad that Tom Poberezny thought of us in context
of the theme, Launching the Next Century of Flight, because that's
what draws people out here to the flight research center," he said.
"Everyone who works here is well aware of Oshkosh. The things that
we work with day to day, the things that we resonate with also
resonate very much with the AirVenture audience."
Every year NASA has more people who want to tell their
particular story at Oshkosh, Martin said. "It's always energizing
for us to come, because the AirVenture audience is one that
understands the intricacies of the work we do, where the challenges
are. When someone in one of our fabrication shops finds a new way
to attack a problem, there are a lot of hands-on fabricators at
Oshkosh who appreciate such elegant solutions, things that are
simple." NASA and EAA embody everything from the concept to the
application to actually going out and flying something, he
While the final roster of presenters has not been finalized,
count on representatives from a variety of NASA locations, what
Martin called the NASA Aeronautics Enterprise. Dryden is assembling
and coordinating the program.
"When we fly the Hyper X, we are part of a team that spans the
country, he explained. "That is part of the challenge: to translate
the level of teamwork involved."
Martin, who is a YE flight leader (12 kids, all in sail planes),
added, "It's exciting and encouraging for us when the invitations
come our way. I really appreciate all the things EAA does."

Irony Is A Dead Scene
The Dillinger Escape Plan
This cola brown version of The Dillinger Escape Plan Irony Is A Dead Scene is an Epitaph exclusive and limited to 500 pieces. Get it at the Epitaph Store.
A collaboration between Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Fantomas,) and The Dillinger Escape Plan, this four song EP is a wildly progressive amalgam of musical styles that combines the feral intensity of hardcore, the technical precision of metal, mind-boggling tempo changes and sonic textures usually associated only with experimental electronic music. "Irony Is A Dead Scene" pushes the limits of speed, composition and complexity. Perhaps the most extraordinary track is a cover of Aphex Twin's "Come To Daddy" which brilliantly and significantly serves to blur the distinction between "electronic" and "live" music.

When Good Dogs Do Bad Things
I'm the best you'll ever have
You're the best I'll never have
Here kitty kitty kitty
listen through the walls
the sound of quick footsteps sneaking down the hall
the pages turning
the leaky roof
the toilet flushing
numbers on the license plate
I'm nothing more then
The best you'll never have
A speck on your bedroom wall
A blood red waterfall
Your dead things are locked up inside
Blow smoke rings straight back in time
Roses floating out with the tide
Dance and sing under gunfire
Open wings slowly take flight...
Around these parts a fly can live---
A fly can live a thousand years
but a man cannot die soon enough, true enough
A smiling drunk nursing a glass of milk
A girl with a face like prison bread
Over the kitchen noise I hear them howl at me
A scabby ketchup bottle and a two-dollar bill
I guess its time to pay the bill, but you know I never will
I'm hungry still...
Mercy killing on the way
Never thought I'd hear you say
Falling to your knees and pray now...
In this crowded place I could swing a cat
And not even hit a soul...
It's just the lonely vacuum of human black holes
And I'm as dry as these thirsty trees
with big city thoughts in the dirty breeze...
promising to set me free
"waiter, check please..."
Pig Latin
Do you remember where you were on that day?
A day of life sentences and x-rays
My name was on that birthday cake
Your mother, your father, your brother and the thing under the covers
Your lover, the others, the leeches and the serpents and the suckers
Your mother, your father, the babies and the nurses and the doctors
Your lover, the others, the waiting room, the gurney and the druggers
Your mother, your father, the comas and the way the spirits hover
Your lover, the others, I thought I wasn't smart enough to suffer
Speaking pig latin
Kiss me goodnight
Dreaming white satin
Kiss me goodnight
Freedom--- tying your legs down
Freedom--- fucking your brains out
Freedom--- blowing the candles out
Freedom--- waving to the crowd
And I hate long goodbyes anyway...
Hollywood Squares
Game over, you win.
Game over, I win.
The Sleigh bells are a-ringing, the children they are singing
The memories are fleeting, a little game of {Paper, Scissors, Rock}
The wedding Bells are ringing, the shotgun is a-singing
Now (?) your fingers steady, a little game of {Paper, Scissors, Rock}
You are my lucky penny, my local anesthetic
Ritual bloodletting, we play a game of {Paper, Scissors, Rock}
A lion tamer yelling, your first piano lesson
A 4--leaf contraceptive, we play a game of {Paper, Scissors, Rock}
A sweaty palm reading, a lucky shot of whiskey
Now come and rub my belly, a little game of {Paper, Scissors, Rock}

Definitions for triumphal arch
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word triumphal arch
Princeton's WordNet
triumphal arch(noun)
a monumental archway; usually they are built to commemorate some notable victory
triumphal arch(Noun)
A monumental arch that commemorates a victory.
Triumphal arch
A triumphal arch is a monumental structure in the shape of an archway with one or more arched passageways, often designed to span a road. In its simplest form a triumphal arch consists of two massive piers connected by an arch, crowned with a flat entablature or attic on which a statue might be mounted or which bears commemorative inscriptions. The main structure is often decorated with carvings, sculpted reliefs and dedications. More elaborate triumphal arches may have multiple archways. Triumphal arches are one of the most influential and distinctive types of architecture associated with ancient Rome. Thought to have been invented by the Romans, the triumphal arch was used to commemorate victorious generals or significant public events such as the founding of new colonies, the construction of a road or bridge, the death of a member of the imperial family or the accession of a new emperor. The survival of great Roman triumphal arches such as the Arch of Titus inspired many post-Roman states and rulers, up to the present day, to erect their own arches in emulation of the Romans. Arches in the Roman style have been built in many cities around the world, most notably the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, the Narva Triumphal Arch in Saint Petersburg and the Wellington Arch in London.

Daily News on Nuclear, Biological & Chemical Weapons, Terrorism and Related Issues
Chicago Area Medical Sites Drill For "Dirty Bomb" Attack on NATO Summit
Hundreds of Chicago-area medical personnel and volunteers practiced responding to a radiological "dirty bomb" attack last week as part of efforts to prepare for this month's high-profile NATO summit, FOX Chicago News reported (see GSN, April 24).
A minimum of 10 hospitals close to the city and roughly 500 health workers and volunteers took part in the simulated response to a radiological event.
"We want to make sure that , as we're getting close to the NATO summit, that our staff are ready and trained and able to take care of our community," NorthShore University HealthSystem emergency preparedness chief Brigham Temple said.
Medical workers in the drill wore protective gear and used radiation monitors to assess "victims" who in the scenario were contaminated with the lethal radioactive substance cesium.
A dirty bomb attack would use conventional explosives to disperse radioactive material across a wide area. Such an event would produce far fewer casualties than a nuclear strike but is also significantly more likely to occur, authorities believe.
Temple said the exercise was developed with assistance from the U.S. Homeland Security Department and the Secret Service.
'If something does happen, God forbid, we'll be ready to do something about it," physician Michael George said.
President Obama is scheduled to attend the May 20-21 summit, along with the leaders of Australia, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and other nations.
The U.S. government has said it has no evidence of a looming terrorist strike in the country but is urging more caution around the one-year anniversary of the killing of al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden (Mike Flannery, FOX Chicago News, April 27).

The U.S. has begun a cleanup operation in some parts of Vietnam in order to "be able to monitor what the Russians do" in those areas, said Ward Reilly, a member of Veterans for Peace.
"That's the ulterior motive in this case", Reilly said, noting that this comes exactly after Vietnam announced normalizing ties with Russian and allowing it to build some military bases for the Asian country.
Reilly made the remarks in an interview with the U.S. desk on Thursday.
He went on to say that if the U.S. concern is cleaning up that area, why would its ambassador to Vietnam say "the U.S. says protecting peace and freedom of navigation in the sea is in its national interest."
The Vietnamese prime minister has recently said Cam Ranh Bay, 180 miles northwest of Ho Chi Minh city, would stand ready to service ships and submarines "from all countries". Russia is to help rebuild the port as part of an £1.3 billion defense deal signed earlier this year.
The move is one of a series of interlocking regional arrangements that are being put in place to counter China's growing might.
This is while, on Thursday, the U.S. and Vietnam began a long-awaited joint cleanup effort dubbed as the "Agent Orange".

A's acquire Michael Wuertz
Jeff Fletcher | February 2, 2009
The A's just picked up right-handed reliever Michael Wuertz from the Cubs in exchange for minor leaguers Richie Robnett and Justin Sellers.
Wuertz, 30, is a journeyman who has been part of the Cubs bullpen off and on for the past few years. Last year he had a 3.63 ERA in 44 2/3 innings. His career ERA is 3.57 in parts of five years. He's been pretty consistent, though. His ERA has been under 4.00 each of the past four years.

Total Overdose PC Game free Crack in Mediafire Links. Total Overdose one of fun game to play and i hope you guys enjoy.
The tale of Total Overdose is cut from the kind of heavy-on-the-gunplay, light-on-the-drama cloth made well-known in 1980s-era action films. Ramiro Cruz is an ex-convict and all-nearly screwup. His twin brother works for the DEA. Ramiro's twin is injured even as working undercover, right as he's in this area to get in with some very powerful drug lords down in Mexico. In a twist that plays like a vaquero movie version of the Anthony Hopkins/Chris Rock vehicle Terrible Company, Ramiro is brought in to exchange his brother so he can get in with the shady dealers. In this area a billion bullets, bodies, and busts later, you're dealing with bent DEA agents, huge-time drug deals, and a revenge plot in this area who really killed Ramiro's former-DEA-agent father. None of this means a thing, mind you. The plot here is merely a vehicle for you to get out and start shooting things. What small storyline exists here is largely turned beside the point by the incredibly cheesy voice acting and writing, so there's no real opportunity to care in this area any of these people. But that suits the game just fine, since you'll be too busy butchery everybody to bother caring in this area them.

C&P exams on 09AUG2010; results for C&P on computer (and hand carried) to VARO on 29AUG2010;
eBenefits says received VAMC docs on 15OCT2010.
Development ever since.
Now with "special Ops Team"(?) whatever that is. Submitted IRIS request on 07/29/2011-VARO did not answer me but posted a message on VA computer system, so the 1-800-827-1000 customer assistance (nice elderly fellow ) could tell me that, even though others have submitted "regular" claims months AFTER mine at the Indianapolis VARO, that each claim is different so they cannot be compared and I just have to wait. (they did not say "my turn" this time, because I think my turn came and they gave it to someone else )
I've visited the Indianapolis VARO numerous times-heard many different stories, been
Gird up thine loins and prepare for a long wait at this VARO.

Mishandling of claim information. Sending another veterans information to the veteran and when he tried to take it back, they cornered him and tried to interrogate him. He called me in a panic and I told him to get out of there and send the information to the veteran whose name was on the documents.
Then I told him to send the rest to the office of VAOIG. This veteran ended up moving to another state.
I would not touch this regional office without the assistance of an attorney.
Posted 02 October 2011 - 02:51 AM
Additionally, a particular VSO out of that office who is listed as my rep. has been of no assistance. Now, it seems that office is also claiming non-receipt of evidence, even with my postal receipt showing they also received. After the VARO claims of non-receipt, or late receipt of evidence, I've been sending a copy to the VSO for stamping and having placed into my VA file of what I've sent to the VARO. The VSO would send me a letter stating it was turned in to VA and date stamp noted, but important papers that I'd sent in May, 2011 were never acknowledged. Recently, I called the office about it and, apparently, they claim to never have received the evidence, either. From having dealt with the P.O. in that area, due to claims of non-receipt, etc., it does not appear to be a postal delivery problem, but a IN VARO issue with the mail once it is delivered to them. Since I do not live near to the VARO, there is not too much more that can be done about it since I can't just pay a visit, requesting to see the file, to see what is in it. I have not made a request for updated file copies since I do not want to disturb the claim further, but it seems pointless to do that, in any case. My husband requested some copies from them from his file, over 1-1/2 years ago and, as yet, nothing has been forthcoming.
The IN VARO was not always this way. My husband went through that VARO back in the 90's and the service was excellent with both VARO and VSO. They were efficient and timely. Since then, too much has changed, but not favorable, or so it seems to me. This veteran has just been left to sort of just hang and wait out whatever it is they are doing over there. I agree that it would be best to work through an attorney with that particular VARO. I just have not gotten around to seeking out the information for that and pending that SSOC they spoke about since 2009. I suppose, eventually, I will be forced to do that if the claim just continues to sit there and I can't get better assistance from the VSO. This whole claim issue was so pathetic that when my hearing date came up, I made the trip to Indianapolis, and my VSO did not even have me listed in their computer as having a hearing that day, even as I'd called him to confirm a few days prior. The receptionist went looking for him somewhere in the building to inform him that my hearing was coming up...good thing he wasn't off that day. I know that there is no way he was reviewing anything in my file, so he was not prepared. Of course, he is the VSO, not the VA, but it sure leaves me wondering.
If this is the way that IN VARO continues to operate, it would behoove a veteran to get real good representation from the get go, or expect a longer than what is expected wait, in my humble opinion. I'm sorry that I don't have anything better to say about that VARO.
Posted 02 October 2011 - 09:00 PM
This is one of the things that is making me feel so disgusted with them. IF they decide to deny my CUE, when in fact it is a cut and dried CUE, I'll have to appeal through this very same VARO and there will be an even longer wait. Of course the later courts would award me the CUE but the pain and anguish at having to wait and wait and even wait for this VARO to relinquish its grip on me (and my claim) is wearing on me now. All the while, they say they are doing everything they can and they are working so hard - I think there comes a time when a leader has to say that enough is enough and that the current team is NOT a team that can produce success. I'm going to be excessively bitter at them even if the significant 5 figure $$$ were deposited tomorrow! Of course that would have required an adjudication and CACO approval and more. I can understand but I will not forget what they have done to me and most likely thousands of others.

Another thing I just noticed: My last claim was a dependency claim in 2007. The claim was "opened" at 10 months after submittal and completed during the week that made it one year. So they have been slow to adjudicate for a long time (at least on my claims). One of the claims submitted a couple of months after mine, as I read, was adjudicated earlier and it just dawned on me that it was mistakenly sent to another VARO for adjudication, then sent back to Indianapolis and completed. So it goes.
"mistakenly sent to another VARO for adjudication" - sometimes when a VARO is backed-up, they'll farm their work out to other VAROs with lighter workload. ATL sent two of mine to Huntington VARO, and I received (what I think) were better results. Best of luck to you!
Posted 05 October 2011 - 09:17 PM
Now, more:
The VARO has told me in mid AUG2011 (and some other times since) that they had not yet gotten to my (then) 490 day old claim as it had not waited long enough and they work all claims in the order received. This means that they worked a large percentage of young (higher priority) claims and a few really old (regular) claims.
Comparing number of 01AUG claims <125 days (5443) and an average of 25% of those claims aging to >125 days old with the number of 31AUG claims <125 days (5478) and the new claims(~1718) (Average age 15 days old) indicates that 315 claims that should have reached a status of >125 days old never did - these must be the number of claims less than 125 days that got adjudicated; these are some of the prioritized claims that got processed in AUG2011. Now some real hypothesizing: IF you assume the average age of these 315 claims that got adjudicated is 100 days, the rest of the claims for AUG averaged 395 days... but my 490 day claim had not been touched, so I'll assume that all of the regular claims adjudicated were at least
This means that they do not give enough numbers to postulate And I'd guestimate that about 85-95% of the claims processed at Indy are prioritized.
But it does indicate another symptom of a system at its breaking point where unless you are in a "prioritized" category, your estimated adjudication date is growing and continues to grow - to at least 540+days now. This conclusion assumes they work the claims in the order received...but I've read posts here and on other forums that indicate that their "party line" about this is a

Dear Mr. Xxxxxxx
This is in response to your inquiry to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) dated September 27, 2011.
We apologize for the delay in responding to your inquiry. We are currently experiencing a large volume of inquiries and are working as quickly as possible to respond to each in a timely manner.
Mr. Xxxxxx, we thank you for your service to our country.
We received your claim for increase on April 14, 2010, for ............. Your claim is still in the Development Phase. Based on the information available, the required development actions have been completed. We will review your claim to ensure we have everything we need to make an informed decision. If we determine we need additional information, we will contact you.
There are two additional phases: the Decision Phase and the Notification Phase.
The VA doesn't have a policy to reorder exams if they are over a year old. Once a claim is awaiting a decision by our rating activity, a rating specialist will review the information to make sure we have everything we need to make a fair decision. If at that time, they feel a more current exam is necessary, one will be ordered.
Your continued patience is appreciated.
Thank you for contacting us. If you have questions or need additional help with the information in our reply, please respond to this message or see our other contact information below.
Sincerely yours,
Donovan W. Thompson

Just to give you a frame of reference for your stats, I applied to Indy RO on 04-14-2009 for PTSD, TBI, TDIU, residuals, hand fracture, tinnitus, and bilateral hearing loss and my claim was awarded on 8-5-2010. By my math that's 16 months. With regards to your dependency claim, I filed for dependency at the Manila RO in May of this year and it was awarded this past Monday, 10-17-2011- for 5 months total.
Yes, Your claim was adjudicated BEFORE all of the AO presumptives and the Nehmer claims started to be adjudicated. Thanks for the input. It indicates a significantly longer time than their laughable average processing claim times indicate. They keep processing enough of the recent (prioritized and others) claims to keep the average lower and still keep a significant majority waiting around. Interestingly, today I read that one of the past funding initiatives was to be able to charge interest when the VA overpays vets....but there is certainly no reciprocity when the VA owes us for years and finally pays
Posted 21 October 2011 - 09:18 PM
Per the customer service rep: Regular claims for Indianapolis are still backed up to 2009 submissions! He commented that they are backed up so many ways and that they are just working through as best as they can. In an attempt to modernize the VA claim process, the Indy VARO has changed to a team concept that has teams for NEW claims (FastTrack fully developed), team(s) for prioritized claims, team to work all of the 19APR2010 and earlier cases, etc.
For some of us, it means that they have allocated resources to work other claims rather than in the order received, excuse me, that means other non-prioritized claims. It also means that the rule about working claims in the order received is true except when they have a plan to do something else and all in the name of, with the intent of being efficient . Oh yes, they cull certain kinds of new claims out like tinnitus, hearing, backs, etc. so they can knock those out earlier to keep them from backing up also.
Oh yes, the team that is working all of those claims dating back to 2009 FOUR raters. I was told these old claims were difficult and needed a special (special ops) team. When I pointed out that my claim was old because it has aged into that category because they just did not work it. He acknowledged that and they have such a big backlog that originated from Nehmer, Gulf War vet priorities with such a large National Guard presence in Indiana, and all of the other Congressional mandated priorities.
So, lets see, at with 4 raters at 3 claims a day each (remember, these are difficult old claims), that should yield about 250-270 claims a month. And IF they received 500 regular claims a month during the time from Oct2009 until 19APR2010 That means they will reach, or could reach, 2 months of work for every month of submitted claims. That is reassuring. It also means, with Quibley's earlier post, that from 8-5-2010 until now (over a year) that they have accomplished 2-months worth of "regular" claims!
I would like to give up on this, but of course the VA does not pay the same interest on underpaid accounts as they do when You are overpaid. The VA does not care that you lose thousands of $$ in lost tax returns due to their delay!
I really think the workers care about the job and their ability to deliver timely claim adjudication. I think that many workers are trying hard to achieve. Its just that the current system is not geared up to provide the services that the politicians want it too. But the politicians just do not want to be seen denying benefits to disabled vets, so they enact legislation that directs the VA to make it happen and the VA does NOT go to the press and tell the public the sham job that Congress is trying to pull, instead, they make a press announcement that all claims will be under 125 days by 2015.
When you look at the ASPIRE and the VA Monday Morning Weekly Report, you sure do not look at the numbers that say they are still not even working cases that are over 700 days old!
He also said that the new time estimates that they are informing vet applicants are from 6-12 months! He doesnt tell the applicants that they are going to work their newer claims instead of all of those old and difficult claims.
Please excuse my rant and just observe the facts involving the status of the Indianapolis VARO at processing claims. Chronic back/neck pain, coupled with my failure to see the sense in the smoke blown by our govt that everything is under control. Hey, if I am really lucky they will adjudicate my claim and just before they issue any payments, the dollar will crash and I then can take the 8 years of back CRDP and buy a sandwich with it. MMM, MMM, good.

"Inspection of the VA Regional Office, Indianapolis, Indiana
We evaluated how well the Indianapolis VARO accomplishes its mission. The staff timely processed homeless veterans claims and effectively provided outreach efforts to homeless shelters and service providers. Inaccuracies in temporary 100 percent disability evaluations resulted from not scheduling medical reexaminations. Also, an incorrect interpretation of VA policy resulted in inadequate medical exams for processing traumatic brain injury claims. Also, the quality assurance program did not identify errors in herbicide exposure-related disability claims. Overall, the VARO did not correctly process 41 percent of disability claims reviewed. Better management oversight would ensure errors identified by internal reviews were corrected, improve mail processing, and increase accuracy when addressing entitlement issues pertaining to the mental health treatment for Gulf War veterans."

As I was informed the last time I visited the Indianapolis VARO - you are unfortunate to have a claim where there is such a large number of returning Gulf War OIF/OEF vets because of the large number of reserve units called up from the iNDIANA AREA. That has created a large number of vets with higher priority than a regular claim submittal.. The politicians made it this way and that is how the VA must adjudicate the claims. I know it is difficult to accept that you are not as "equal" as other vets...but that is the way it is. When you are standing in line for gov't benefits, you pretty much have to accept what you are given. I think Indy is moving faster now..
Wow! They are really trying to set the bar high heh. I have a claim that is now 365 days and have not received the first contact letter. All of the items claimed are either already SC or presumptives that have already been diagnosed by the VHA. It is dissappointing because I know that the majority of the VA administrative staff are SC veterans and new job openings have been posted as to only be filled by veterans or tenured civil service employees. You would think things would improve, but they seem to be getting worse. I hear they have terrible turnover so maybe they just have to keep training new staff. Still....Wow!

Here is alittle info. I just got off the phone the 1800 number. Lets call him "snowball". I was checking on my claims that I have with the indianapolis VRO. It has been about 6 months and no movement. He informed me, that they are running about 572 on processing claims now. I was floored. I thought to myself. Jezzzzzzz the government can send us to combat at a moments notice (which I would do again if my country asked me). But when the veterns file a claim or ask for help. It takes 2 years to get any help.
Hey that would be fast, based on the fact my claim has been with the Houston RO for 854 days and still in "Gathering Evidence". Be thankful.

VA Claim status: Still in collection of evidence status
I did an Iris last month, and got the typical response letter. Hopefully it adds a bit a fuel to my claims though.
I have maintained a very tight budget over the last year and with my award I can pay my bills and build a better case for VA claims to boot with out going bankrupt.

Require the VA to pay INTEREST when more than a reasonable period elapses between the filing of a claim and the payment of the claim. (In the case of contractors, this can be a period of thirty days or so after payment is due.)
Require that long delayed claims be paid using the governments own tables that equate past year to current year dollars.
This also compensates the veteran, by paying a more or less equitable amount that has the same purchasing power as a past year's dollar.
Perhaps a supplementary payment should also be added when CUE is involved.
If that doesn't get the VA off it's @#$, then it's past time to separate the entire C&P system, overhaul it, and place it under (Perhaps) SSA.
Supporting two disability systems makes absolutely no sense, unless you want to have increased administrative costs, duplicated manpower, etc.
Posted 18 October 2013 - 08:16 AM
Hello. I submitted a claim to get an increase in certain things back in October 2012 and I just got the results. Instead of bumping my percentages, the Indy office decided to lower two of my disabilities, even though I had plenty of evidence to back me up. This forum mentioned that this regional office makes mistakes on 41% of the claims. Obviously, I'm going to appeal. The question is, should I get a lawyer that handles VA claims? How much do they typically charge? Does anybody know of any good VSO reps in the Terre Haute/Indy area, or lawyers?

I share your frustration with the Indianapolis Regional Office. I applied for my appeal to go to the BVA in 2009. As of today it is still at the regional office and all they would tell me was that someone is actively working on it because it had a case note from 05/2014. I contacted my local congressman and he gave very little help. I have sent in 5 IRIS requests in the past month with no responses. I have called their number seven times and even scheduled a time for them to call me and no one called. I have left messages for my POA as well and have not been contacted by them. I am about tempted to move to another state so it can be handled better. I asked who was handling it so I could see if they needed anything else and they would not tell me that information. Anyone have any ideas????

Are you able to travel there in person? If so, I would make a personal visit. Not an ugly visit, but a cordial "help me understand" and "I need status" visit. You may just get the attention you need on you appeal.

I would make the trip if I could, but it is over an hour away and I don't trust my old truck on the interstate. I guess after tax season I would be more inclined to do it since I will be doing some repairs to her. Driving to the hospital is not bad since it is on country roads, but downtown Indy is impossible in that thing.

Indianapolis, and the midwest (to include Cleveland, Ohio), are indeed two of the worst Regional Offices. Back in 2008, there was an article about the disparity among regional offices...how a Veteran in one RO was more likely to get service connection at higher percentages than another RO. The midwest RO's were the worst...the lowest had an average per Vet of about half of what Veterans received in more Veteran friendly states.
Interestingly, Senator Barrack Obama's state, Illinois, was one of the lowest states in the nation (in compensation to Veterans) He campaigned hard for Illinois to end that disparity, and Illinois moved up several steps. Then he moved to the white house and that was all forgotten, apparently.

I knew our area in Indianapolis sucked. When I look at the rating scale I clearly see my symptoms in the 70% category and they gave me a 50% rating. Hopefully the appeal will go to the BVA soon. I want to get this resolved before I do a claim for a few other things.

De·mos·the·nesbiographical name \di-ˈmäs-thə-ˌnēz\
Definition of DEMOSTHENES
384–322 b.c. Athenian orator & statesman
— De·mos·then·ic \di-ˌmäs-ˈthe-nik, ˌdē-, -ˈthē-\ adjective
Demosthenesbiographical name (Concise Encyclopedia)
(born 384 BC, Athensdied Oct. 12, 322, Calauria, Argolis) Athenian statesman known as the greatest orator of ancient Greece. According to Plutarch, he was a stutterer in his youth and improved his speech by placing pebbles in his mouth and practicing before a mirror. His talents were recognized early, and powerful clients engaged him as a speechwriter. Throughout his life he espoused democratic principles. He roused Athens against Philip II by his great Philippics, and later against Philip's son Alexander the Great. In so doing he incurred the enmity of Aeschines, who argued that Philip's intentions were peaceable; Demosthenes succeeded in having Aeschines ostracized (330), but he was himself later forced into exile (324). Recalled after Alexander's death (323), he fled Alexander's successor and committed suicide.
