This flick gets a lot of guff, the director is shit sure. And Nicolas Cage would have done anything to get in a comic movie it seems and really may have not been the best choice for this. But think about it, how easy do you think it is to make a Ghost Rider movie? It'd have to be very heavy on effects, and you don't have a lot to work with as far as the story goes because really, most of the Ghost Rider story's sucked. He falls into the trap that Thor does, cool character, shitty book. So for what they had to work with this movie ain't so bad. I enjoyed it, its not the best in the world but it's kind of fun. You've just got to take it for what it is.

Superman (1978): Ah the first Superman movie. There exists two cuts of this movie, the one that came out and the Richard Donner cut. I've always heard the Richard Donner cut was better and I just recently saw it. It is better but don't go thinking there's an amazing difference. There's basically 3 added scenes that were cut out put back in the movie, no biggie. Richard Donner comes over from The Omen fame to direct this cheesy great film. A lot of people hate this movie today, say it was never good or it hasn't aged well. Ah maybe they're right on some counts but I like it. It is kind of cheesy but not only is Superman not an easy movie to make I suspect, this is also 1978, effects weren't all stellar yet. People can argue that Christopher Reeve was great or terrible here, I think he did a fine job here…but people also praise Marlon Brando in this flick who I think was sub-par. The real gem of this movie no matter how you look at it is Gene Hackman filling the shoes of Lex Luthor, in quite a stellar way. We've basically got your run of the mill origin story here with Lex Luthor hating Superman, for oddly enough, no real reason explained. But it all works out, kryptionite is used and an evil plan is thwarted. The only thing about this flick I really hate is the 'killing' of Lois Lane, only to be brought back to life by Superman flying around Earth to reverse time…If you can get over that you've got a pretty decent superhero movie.
Superman II (1981): As with Superman you've got more than one cut of this movie. The main ones are the theater release and once again the Richard Donner cut because Richard was booted out of this movie for very unclear reasons, if you dig you can find the different versions of the story's why. The big difference here between Superman and Superman II, the two different cuts of the movie are actually different. The Richard Donner cut of this one and the Richard Lester (new director) cut have about a 20 minute time difference and there are key plot points that are slightly different. Its certainly the same movie, just flows very differently. I must say I think I like the Donner cut a little better once again but either copy is still good. We've got Christopher Reeve back as Superman and Margot Kidder back as Lois Lane and the great Gene Hackman doing Lex Luthor again. This time however we've got the three villains from Krypton doing the main bad guy damage. Remember the Krypton criminals from the start of the first movie? Yeah those guys finally pay off. This also gives us the brilliant "KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!" line, that rates up there with Star Trek's "KKKKKAAAAAHHHHHNNNNNN!!". This movie however as great as it is, has more things in it that I hate than the first one had. We've got Kryptionan powers that never existed, such as telekinesis apparently, Superman can now make some sort of dumb-ass plastic net thing out of his S and has this amazing power to create amnesia when he kisses Lois Lane. Also Lois finds out that Clark is Superman and not only do they end up hooking it up but Superman gives up his powers then mysteriously gets them back. Seems like I hate this movie, I know. But its still great even will all its flaws. You've got a big super powered fight at the end, and that really makes up for everything.
Superman III (1983): Ah Superman III, the one everybody loves to hate. (This is of course, because everybody forgets they even made a part IV). Richard Lester jumped back in the director's chair and we have most of the rest of the cast back, Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder in their title roles. We've also got Richard Pryor in for this one, which people either love or hate. Oddly enough most people remember this movie as either terrible, or as to the main plot for Office Space (stealing the fractions of cents from the company's payroll). Lex is missed but he wasn't in every Superman comic either, now was he? This despite all the hate it gets is actually my favorite of the series. Superman's just a jerk-hole and it's amazing. The villain here, we'll just call him the bootleg Lex because that's what he is, hires Richard Pryor to mess up the weather because hes a super villain and all, Superman stops this so they start to target him. How do you hurt Superman? Kryptonite. But they don't have any, so they make some. Problem being 0.57% is unknown so it's just made up as Tar. This makes the Kryptonite act more like the red kind and causes Superman to not care and turns him into a super jerk, and this is amazing. About 3/4 of the way through the film we get to my favorite part, where Superman gets all drunk, if you can't enjoy this you have no soul. Well as this movie progresses it does get pretty stupid, Superman fights Clark Kent?? The whole sequence makes little to no sense, either way its been one of my favorite ever sense the first time I saw it when I was a kid. But really when it comes down to it it may be the dumbest thing in the movie so there's that love/hate relation I have with that scene. I guess the point here being is this is by no means a perfect movie, or even a great one but at the same time it is an awesome one.
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987): Now this is the worst movie by far of the Superman series. This is the "Batman & Robin" of Superman if you will, big difference being, Superman IV is worse than Batman & Robin. B&R at least had I donno, maybe 5 minutes of entertainment, where's this does not. Problem one, written by Christopher Reeve, I got no beef with the guy as an actor but apparently he's not a writer. Problem two, director Sidney J. Furie, this man has not directed anything worth a damn in his life. Problem three, which I guess can be tied to problem one, the plot – Superman gets a hard-on for world peace. This plot is stupid to say the least, just some hippy propaganda in an attempt to brainwash us into thinking the same. On the plus of this atrocity we've at least got some familiar faces back. Of course Christopher Reeve is the alien in the blue suit. Jackie Cooper is back as Perry White, Margot Kidder as Lois Lane and thankfully we've got Lex Luthor back played once again by the brilliant Gene Hackman. This movie is so bad it's almost a parody of a Superman movie. It's corny and cheesy both in very bad ways. I really don't think there's one good thing I can say about this except Gene Hackman being back. Basically I'd say avoid this movie if you can. Its not even really a fun watch, its just bad. Its probably in the bottom 10 comic movies ever made (it may have taken the worst spot if it weren't for the cycle of crap that was unleashed on the world in the 2000's).
Superman Returns (2006): A new Superman movie? Come on Bryan Singer don't fuck this up. You can make a good movie, you did The Usual Suspects, but on the other hand you fucked up X-Men. Well this time it looks like Bryan went middle of the road and made a pretty decent movie. There are things I like and hate about this flick. It was pretty good, and slightly cheesy which I liked because the originals were pretty cheesy. It takes place after part two so its like number three never happened which is pretty fucking stupid, part three rules. But at least its not another remake I guess. Brandon Routh did a pretty Superman, Kate Bosworth did a meh Lois Lane. Speaking of Lois, she had a baby, apparently from Superman, what the fuck is this shit? This almost ruined the movie for me. Lois doesn't have a kid, and a stupid kid that doesn't exist with super powers? Fuck this shit, goddammit Bryan what are you doing? For all its faults (fucking baby) this movie does have one stellar shinning ray of awesome hope, the great (my personal favorite actor), Kevin Spacey stealing the movie as Lex Luthor. He's so good he even puts Gene Hackman's Lex to shame. The story here is a little odd, Lex finds out that he can make land so he goes and makes an island because, land is money and power. A little wacky but a decent villain scheme. The flick turned out pretty well, I was happy, I look forward to the sequel, hopefully they leave the baby out of the next one.

Now here we go, a fucking Cronenberg flick. You can't go wrong there. Add in Viggo Mortensen, Ed Harris and some mob ties and you've got a sweet movie. Basically this guy Tom, lives in this little town. Some guys come in and try to start some stuff with him so he ends up shooting them in a scuffle which makes his former mob buddies aware that hes living there. They come out there to get him, Tom denies he's Joey (his former name) or knows them. Ends up hes gotta go in and take out some people. This movie is definitely worth your time.

In the early 1990s pop-punk was king, ok well maybe not king but it was definitely their hay-day. You had Screeching Weasel, The Queers and (my personal favorite) The Mr. T Experience all going strong and being awesome. It's now the 2000's. Screeching Weasel is gone, Ben Weasel is still doing stuff but I wouldn't exactly say its steady business. The Queers had a long off season but they're not doing too bad themselves (despite the fact that there's been more members than I can count, luckily Joe Queer is dedicated. And MTX isn't broken up but they haven't released an album in five years (and it was another five for the one before that), and they aren't exactly touring machines now a days. However now that the pop-punk bands of old have become the foundation of greatness instead of the guys still trying to make it out there, there is now a new wave of pop-punk. This time hailing from the East Coast (mostly NY/NJ) instead of the West Coast. We've got bands around like The Unlovables, The Copyrights, The Ergs! and the Steinways. Personally I'm a huge fan of this new wave, I can't get enough good pop-punk, I'm just a sucker for it and I was starting to get pretty bummed when it looked like it was dieing out, and now we've got this great resurgence. Which I guess would bring us to this album, "Gorilla Marketing", not only is this their seventh release (including live CD, 7″s and splits), its also their best. I could tell this album was going to be great right off the bat, I really enjoyed all of the other Steinways stuff but this, this has a GORILLA on the cover!, Granted "Missed the Boat" had a hamburger viking, so it's a close call for which one is better. The album itself is complete gold. Before this came out to me the Steinways were pretty damn good, after I listened to this album they were immediately my second favorite new-wave-pop-punk band (right behind The Ergs!). I had a whole new appreciation for this band, and after The Ergs! called it quits I figured the Steinways would be the ones that would have to carry the flag of new pop-punk, they were the only ones up to the challenge…..unfortunately the Steinways also broke up so the flag is kind of floating around between a few bands trying to get a grip right now…This album is full of some potential pop punk classics, "Oh My Fucking Gosh" is one of my favorite songs on the album, its catchy and bout girls, everything pop punk needs. "Fuckmarket Pharmacy" is also a classic jam just about being bored, lazy, unproductive and possibly skipping work. "Oh Angela" is also a great tune, and also has a parody line from an Unlovables song with 'Feeling all emo sense I ran out of weed'. "Attaching Transmittals To Erection Drawings" this might be my favorite all around song on the album, just about being a lazy teenager, or lazy and having no job in general, this gets stuck in my head constantly. "Manhattan Boots" is quality and has possibly my favorite line on the album (that or CGI which I'll hit in a second. It just rings so true with me personally. "As all the asian girls walk by me straight into my mind". Finally the last song I'll single out here is "CGI" because it also has a contender for line of the album with "Let me kiss you in the corner, My mom's out of town teacher friend's daughter, Oh I know that in a couple of years your sister's gonna be hotter". All in all this is a great album. One which I think became a pop punk essential to own the day it came out. In fact its so damn good I personally own this gem on CD and record. About the only complaint I could come up for this fetching piece of vinyl (or plastic) is that it may be just too damn catchy. Parts of these songs get stuck in my head on a daily basis almost walking that fine line between blissful and bothersome. Well I guess that's all I got for now, if you like pop punk, go buy this, right now.

This movie was a made for TV flick as I recall. Even, I was like 14 and hated the Gen X comics but I loved comic books so I made a point to give it a chance. This is possibly the worst comic movie ever made. That might be a little harsh, but if it's not the worst it's got to be in the bottom 5. Avoid this movie at all costs. If someone tries to make you watch it, kick them in the balls and run.

Batman (1943, serial):
This was a collection of serial shorts made in '43. They're definitely dated but a lot of fun, especially if your a Batman fan. Some of the stuff is really ridiculous, but much less then the campy series with Adam West. These serials seem a lot like serial versions of the comics from that time period, pretty wacky but fun. I'd recommend these for a Batman fan but probably not the casual fan.
Batman (1966):
Adam West (Batman), Burt Ward (Robin), Lee Meriwether (Catwoman), Cesar Romero (The Joker), Burgess Meredith (The Penguin), Frank Gorshin (The Riddler)…With this cast it can only be the campy Batman series from the 60's. But this is so much more because this is the movie version of that gem. The villains team up to destroy all the worlds leaders from a peace summit. And on top of this Batman and Robin have to fight a fucking exploding shark! Luckly Batman has his handy Shark Repellent Batspray. I highly recommend this for anyone that liked the old Batman series or anyone that likes fun.
Batman (1989):
Now this is one of my favorite comic movies ever made, and still my favorite Batman movie ever made. It's got Michael Keaton and Tim Burton on top of their game, and the always great Jack Nicolson in an amazing job as the Joker. There's the telling of both origin stories (a little inconsistency in both stories but close enough) then goes into one of the Joker's crazy plots, to basically be the Joker and do what he does – be crazy. This also has one of my favorite movie quotes "Ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?" – that has nothing to do with the actual review, it just rules. Some people bitch about Jack just playing 'himself' or the movie not being violent enough. But you know what? Fuck them. There's a reason Jack Nicholson was chosen to play the Joker and it still stands as the best choice ever, and as for the violence even the great Tim Burton (who wasn't mr. bigwig back then) had to adhere to standards and practices of big budget movies of the late 80's. (Late 80's being the key because they got anal about the rough stuff for a while there which is when this was made). But you've got to work with what you can and this turned out quite excellent. I highly recommend this for everyone especially comic and Batman fans.
Batman Returns:
The Penguin gets screwed by the mayor and vows revenge, meanwhile else were in Gotham a secretary knows too much and is thrown out a window. Once again Tim Burton is back directing, Michael Keaton is still Batman, but we've added some awesomeness to the cast. Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman back when she was still sexy, the great Danny DeVito as Penguin and there's even some of everyone's favorite strange/creepy/great guy Christopher Walken as the mayor in this one. While not a bad movie, it does have it moments overall I didn't really enjoy it. I remember I was even disappointed as a kid when I saw this. I'm not sure why, caught somewhere between rushed/forced and possibly half-hearted its not even close to the worst Batman movie made, its certainly not one of the best. There is however a massive penguin army which gets this movie some awesome points.
Batman Forever:
This movie I have almost a love/hate relationship with. Basically what we've got here is more origin stories which seem to be the norm with this series of movies. Once again the origins aren't spot on but good enough that I can overlook that for now. Two-Face ice's Tim Drake's parents, which causes Tim Drake to become Robin. Meanwhile Bruce Wayne fires Edward Nygma which leads him to become the Riddler in a revenge plot. During this plot Riddler finds out Batman's identity. Gone is Tim Burton and the new guy in is (ugh) Joel Schumacher, this could be a big part of the problem. Also out is Michael Keaton, instead we get the bootleg version Val Kilmer, he did an ok job but he's no Michael Keaton. In pulling sidekick duty is this Chris O'Donnell jerk, whom I hate to this day because of his poor job in this role. There's even Nicole Kidman and Drew Barrymore throw in for some eye candy. However the only real redeeming part of this movie is the villains. This time around we've got my second favorite Batman villain, Two-Face, played by one of my favorite actors, Tommy Lee Jones. This was stellar. I know a lot of people hated how this was done but I thought it was great. Granted it was a way over the top, super charged version of Two-Face, but it was fun, he killed some people and it was fucking Tommy Lee Jones. One of my favorite Jones roles (most people's least favorite). Second on the map is the Riddler played by Jim Carrey who was bigger than comedy Jesus at this point in time. Once again this is a over the top version of said character, but then again it is Jim Carrey. I though it fit pretty well, not the best Riddler known to man but it was a quality performance. So basically if they could somehow cut all the fat in this movie and just have Two-Face and Riddler owning Gotham, this movie would rule, as it stands…its ok.
Batman & Robin:
Ok here's the stinker movie of this series and basically what killed the Batman franchise for 10 years (give or take). Not that this movie is without its moments but its really just not good. I tried to defend it for years but I've finally come to terms with its shittyness. The story is pretty generic and still doesn't make a lot of sense. You've got Poison Ivy (Played by Uma Thurman somehow looking not sexy), who's basically being a pissy crazy woman all about the plants. We've got Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) being pissed off about being Mr. Freeze. There's even Bane in here for about 10 seconds…Yeah sounds pretty shitty doesn't it? But wait, there's more! We've got a new Batman once again, George Clooney trying to climb up the ladder to get someone to notice him as Mr. Wayne. Once again not a bad job by him, but not that great either. He played a much better Bruce Wayne than a Batman but the movie's not called 'Bruce Wayne & Robin'. That dick stain Chris O'Donnell is crapping up the role of Robin again. However there is a bit of light here we're introduced to Batgirl is this movie brought to us by Alicia Silverstone. Not a stellar performance, but it was good and she looks good in a skintight Batgirl suit. No surprised on this sorry excuse for a comic movie There's Joel Schumacher at the wheel directing this train wreck again, that explains a lot. I think this movie pretty much proves that a movie can't get by on just a few big names, there's got to be a decent movie to start with. Oh and as I recall there's some sort of sky surfing scene in here somewhere too…
Batman Begins:
Eight years after 'Batman & Robin' Christopher Nolan comes out of almost nowhere with a reboot of the Batman films breathing life into them again. It's not too much of a surprise seeing as how so far all of his movies have been pretty awesome, but a Batman movie was pretty unexpected. Reboot of the series however means another retelling of the origin story, which leads to one of my only gripes with the movie. Although cool, I had no idea what was going on the first 10 minutes of the movie. I walk into a Batman movie and I see mud-wrestling, luckily it all worked out. Everyone's favorite American Psycho, Christian Bale is in the batsuit this time. Unforchinatly not wielding a chainsaw and talking about music. Bale does a damn good job in this movie, good choice here. We've also got the awesome Michael Caine as Alfred, and the also awesome Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox a Wayne employee who basically becomes Batman's gadget dealer. Villains come in as Ra's Al Ghul in a couple forms and Cillian Murphy appearing as the Sandman. Excellent movie to kick off the new Batman series, definitely in the top group as far as Bat flicks go.
Dark Knight:
Christopher Nolan is back with a sequel, and one hell of a sequel. I've got a little resentment towards this movie but I still like it a lot. So far this is my second favorite Batman flick to date. There's kind of a lot going on here. You've got the Joker introcuded played by Heath Ledger (I'll come back to this), being the Joker, just fucking crazy. Meanwhile you've got Harvey Dent (played excellently by Aaron Eckhart) trying to clean up Gotham until his woman gets killed and he gets charged, then Two-Face comes out (with goddamn fucking awesome stellar effects). Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman are all back doing bang up jobs in their previous roles. (with the exception of Batman's ridiculously low voice, this was literally laughable) We even get a cameo of Cillian Murphy back as the Scarecrow for a minute (or less). Now my big beef with this movie isn't even with the movie, this is totally an editorial rant. Heath Ledger. The man was a good Joker (no Jack Nicholson, but who is) But most of the popularity of this movie came from Ledger committing suicide before the flick came out. Not only that it got a bunch of bandwagon fans jumping on and every goth kid within a two billion mile radius suddenly thinking he's Heath Ledger's Joker. This was not the comic Joker in the movie, the performance was good but the makeup was god awful, had nothing to do with the Joker really, just made him look like a jack-off. So because he OD'd you've suddenly got everyone who wouldn't give a fuck about the movie before suddenly loving it, everyone praising his performance as the best thing ever, and a bunch of jerk-offs dressing up like this poor excuse for a Joker. I'm done here before I anger more, go see the movie but chill the fuck out.

This is my first "news" post, maybe last, who knows. This just kind of annoyed me to I figured I'd throw it up here: From fucking Fat Wreck Chords site::
"That's right, we just stole another great band from another small label. Identical twins Ray and Brandon Carlisle started Bottlerocket in 2001, recruited Kody from The Lillingtons, Fatty's favorite band, and put a couple of records out with our pals at Red Scare Industries. Known for their fast and fun live shows and small town charm, TBR caught our eye, and then won our hearts."
At least they know what they're doing and call attention to it 'we just stole another great band from another small label'. Hopefully this is another case of Fat releasing a decent record instead of another case of Fat fucking up a good band.

Jefferson's Sister, Niece Plead Guilty To Fraud Charges
Updated On: Feb 25 2010 10:37:25 AM CST
Just months after former Rep. William Jefferson was convicted, two of his family members pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges on Thursday.
Betty Jefferson, Jefferson's sister and an elected tax assessor in New Orleans, and her daughter, Angela Coleman, pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit mail fraud, aggravated identity theft, money laundering and tax evasion, U.S. Attorney Jim Letten said.
Betty Jefferson, 70, and Coleman, 53, admitted that between 1999 and 2006, they participated in a conspiracy to obtain money and property for their financial and political benefit through various public and private organizations.
The pleas were part of a plea agreement with the U.S. and came about a month before the two were set to go to trial along with Betty Jefferson's brother, Mose Jefferson, and Renee Gill Pratt, a former city councilmember and state representative.
"My prediction is they won't be standing for long," Fanning said of Pratt and Mose Jefferson. "The government had to think they had a pretty good case against them in order to indict them to begin with, so that's still there. And add two more witnesses to the list."
Jefferson and Coleman face a possible maximum sentence of five years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine.
"At least Betty Jefferson is very likely to get the whole five years," said defense attorney Pat Fanning. "They probably saved themselves three or four years."
"The old saying, the old ancient Roman saying was 'divide and conquer,'" said defense attorney Chick Foret. "Well, that's obviously what happened today."
The plea agreement for Jefferson and Coleman means the chance for a lighter sentence ran deeper than family ties.
"The Jefferson family is clearly splintered," Foret said. "There's clearly a division now, and two of the folks who pleaded guilty today ... will testify against the two remaining defendants."
The testimony will likely further damage a once-powerful political family that now lies in shambles.
"I remember when Congressman Jefferson ran for state Senate years ago coming out of Harvard Law School," Fanning said. "They showed great promise, and now it seems to have ended up sadly, I think."
Betty Jefferson and Coleman are scheduled to be sentenced May 26.

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.

Welcome to the Recording Connection Digital Information Kit.
The videos below were created to answer frequently asked questions from parents and students about how our unique audio apprenticeship programs work. We realize our approach differs from other schools. We strongly believe our approach — the mentor/apprentice approach — works better, especially if your goal is to get a job in audio.
Recording Connection is the only school that provides its students with music industry professionals serving as their private instructors. If you want to be an audio engineer, we pair you with a working, professional audio engineer. If you want to be a music producer, we pair you with a professional music producer. If you want to learn Electronic Music, Hip Hop or be a Live DJ, we pair you with professionals who are making their music in your choice of genre. No other school comes close to this hands-on, one-on-one approach. No other school places you in real working situations with private instruction from professionals who make their living doing what you want to do upon graduation.
We feel that if you invest the 20 minutes it will take you to view these videos, you too will see why our approach not only makes sense, but works better than any other school out there.

FORT WORTH 'It's a nightmare,' said Kenneth Kirkwood, standing in a hallway looking at what's left of his home in Fort Worth's Arlington Heights neighborhood.
'We built this starting in 2011, finished in 2012,' he said.
Then, last month, it flooded.
His wood floors are ripped up, several inches of sheet rock are torn down, and he and his wife are totally moved out. She is six months' pregnant, and they are temporarily living in a hotel, looking for an apartment, while their home undergoes months of repairs.
But on Wednesday night, Kirkwood visited their vacated residence because of what is in the forecast.
'Everyone in the neighborhood is panicking about one, possibly two inches of rain,' he said. 'Dark clouds come overhead and you just start panicking. So I'm probably going to stay here tonight; I bought a sump pump and some flood barriers, they won't be here 'til tomorrow. I'll put them in front of the doors and the garage and hopefully we don't get impacted again.'
He said no one told him the Western Avenue property where they chose to build their home had flooded. He's angry the city didn't warn them.
'I would have built higher,' he said. 'I would've built higher... or maybe not built at all.'
Fort Worth city workers spent Wednesday afternoon putting together temporary barricades that could be used to block intersections should another flash flood event occur. They also filled sandbags that would be used to keep those barricades in place.
The city has identified its top 'high water locations' spots that routinely give them problems. Most of those locations have warning signs and automatic barricades.
Those locations are:
- 5500 Dirks Road
- 8000 Old Granbury Road
- 2100 Cunningham Street
- 9200 Trinity Boulevard
- 7900 Trinity Boulevard
- 3000 Precinct Line Road at Randol Mill Road
- 2700 Decatur Avenue at Northeast 28th Street
The city considered the 1200 block of East Butler Street and 4950 Cromwell Marine Creek Boulevard problem areas as well, but work has been done in those locations which is hoped to prevent future problems.

A new sleep study hit the press a few days ago, and my inbox is lighting up. Should I believe it, inquiring minds are asking. The study was presented at a SLEEP conference (SLEEP is what they call the Associated Professional Sleep Societies). Media reports flaunt headlines such as "Marriage linked with better sleep" and "Stable marriage is linked with better sleep in women."
Readers of this blog know how I feel about research studies - I want to read the published versions, not just abstracts, not just press releases, and surely not just what the media claims that the studies say. But this latest study has been a challenge. I can't find a published study corresponding to the press release. I can't find anything longer than an abstract. I emailed the author who is quoted in many of the stories, but she has not responded. My guess is that there is no published article. The results were presented at a conference, and maybe not even a conference paper (rather than just an abstract) is available. So I'll tell you what I think based on the information I can gather, but I still want to see a professional write-up.

|"The Urn arrived very quick and was awesome looking. I'm very happy with the quality and the quick service I received."
The Navy Military Urn is the perfect way to memorialize the person who served his country with the US Navy. This urn is made in the U.S. from select grade red alder wood and red oak, beautifully finished with a clear varnish. Cremains are loaded through the base of the urn by removing screws using a #2 Phillips/Square Head screwsdriver. Included is a 2 millimeter poly liner to place the cremains into before placing them inside the urn.
Each urn can be personalized with the name, dates, military rank or a loving remark such as Loving Husband and Father.
This urn is also available with an optional memorial chest add-on. This can be used as a place to keep mementos (i.e. insignias, medals, ribbons, and photos) of your loved one, while the separated lower area is a cremation urn. The chest is lined with a hunter green felt flocking. The standard depth of the memory chest area is about 1.5" deep. The lid has two hidden solid brass hinges and a solid brass friction latch. Please note the reduction of space for cremains with the addition of the memorial chest.

My chargeoff reports as paid, as in it lists a date paid. So SOMEONE paid it...should it have fallen off at 5 years post DOFD? I'm in NYC Bank of America is listing a chargeoff under "Accounts in Good Standing"!!! It has a DOFD of 10/2004. It's dropped off my other reports. EXPERIAN still reports it...as a good account!
What to do? Other reports dropped it in 7/2009, having listed the DOFD as 8/2004.

lafish- i feel your frustration.
Same thing is going on with me. I have a "Legally paid in full for less than the full balance" reporting on EX only. I called and they said they only drop it if it's "paid in full".
So I recently sent them the entire NY State Business Law Article 25, Fair Credit Reporting Act, highlighting the part that applies to my account.
I also sent them a copy of my Experian report (the plus score) and a very long letter. That's the only thing we can do.
If they fail to delete it, I'm filing complaints with the NYS Attorney Generals offce, the NY BBB and the Federal Trade Commission.

Nightmare, I appreciate the empathy. Ilecs and Robert, I appreciate the expertise, as always. You guys are amazing.
I don't know what my problem is, but I keep posting messages prematurely...I hit return a couple times and it posts!
I was going to ask, Nightmare, if perchance you'd care to elaborate. Who'd you send the letter to? OC or the CRA?
Care to share your letter? I'm writing one now using some guidance from reading the boards. I'll show you mine if you show me yours!
Best of luck to all FICO travelers.

At work now, and my letters on my comp at home. I can message it to you when I get home if you'd like.
My dispute is with Experian (The CRA) not with the OC so I sent it to EX.
eta: I also have the issue with my response posting blank if I hit my enter key before giving the "reply" option a few extra seconds to load.
Letter feedback guys?
Dear [[Experian]]:
My recent credit report (Report Number XXXX-XXXX-XX) contains an error that violates The New York Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) Section 380-J: Prohibited information, which states, in part, that:
(a) No consumer reporting agency
shall report or maintain in the file on a consumer, information:
(iv) accounts placed for collection or charged to profit and loss
which antedate the report by more than seven years; or accounts placed
for collection or charged to profit and loss, which have been paid and
which antedate the report by more than five years;
I attach the relevant portion of my credit file that indicates the account was paid, and proof that I'm a NYC resident (in form of a copy of my NY driver license).
My latest Experian report clearly shows the account was charged off to loss, and was paid. As you can see in my credit file, the account reflects a $0 balance. Interestingly, the report also currently lists this charge off as an "Account in Good Standing," but the entry still contains derogatory information, and should altogether no longer be listed on my report.
I am hopeful that Experian has mistakenly violated the NY statute, and not intentionally reported stale derogatory information. I would like to provide Experian the opportunity to remove this information, as the other 2 major credit reporting agencies did timely in the summer of 2009, per the relevant statute.
I would appreciate a reply within 10 business days of receipt of this letter, as derogatory information causes adverse actions that at this point are undeserved for a properly aged and paid account.
I think your letter's fine. In fact, I should have taken the nicer approach as you did, as opposed to threats with everyone I could think of.
I'm no expert though. hoping someone with more experience will post.
myFICO is the consumer division of FICO. Since its introduction 20 years ago, the FICO® Score has become a global standard for measuring credit risk in the banking, mortgage, credit card, auto and retail industries. 90 of the top 100 largest U.S. financial institutions use the FICO Score to make consumer credit decisions.>> About myFICO

In two recent posts I have discussed ideas for freeing the doctor and freeing the employee from the traps of our current healthcare system. In this post I turn to freeing the retirees. For more information, please consult my book, Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis (The Independent Institute, 2012).
There are 78 million baby boomers, and a very large number of them have retirement on their minds. If the past is a guide, more than 80 percent of them will retire before they become eligible for Medicare (at age 65). Although about one-third of US workers have a promise of postretirement healthcare from an employer, almost none of these promises are funded, and as in the case of the automobile companies, they may not be completely honored.
As a result, millions of retirees will find themselves buying their own insurance in the individual market. There they will face some unpleasant realities, which for many of them may come as a shock:

Critter Crashers!
So great! I love the saliva and the expression on Joe's face. You've really got aknack for this my friend, I am damn proud to be a part of this! As I've said before, I really dig your shading technique with this style, very smooth and clean, and the extra white outlines are a very nice touch as well. And the use of the negative space for SNO's branch was a clutch idea, definitely planned and thought out, the characters weren't just slopped in there via copy and paste with no structure, you found one that works well with the size and shapes of each one!
You stumped me with the background this time, looks like some sort of chocolate candies :p
: : sigh : : and when I tried to draw you for the guess that art forum reg, you ended up looking like Dale Gribble. I'm so sorry!
Keep at this, It's going to be a monument of the art forum upon its completion!
I'm not a fan of slopping things together.
The background is eggs this time.
And drawing me like Dale Gribble is by no means insulting. Quiote the opposite.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Sorry for taking all your viewers
Glad you could finish this even without anyone watching you and edging you on

Here's an interesting fact I found out the other day: Seth Macfarlane (of Family Guy fame) was a writer for Hanna Barbera in the 90's. Certainly explains the humour in some of them!
Yup - He wrote johnny bravo and dexters lab and other such greats (not all through hanna barbera)

Ratio And Proportion
In this section we will discuss Ratio and proportion.
In daily life we come across situations where we need to compare quantities in terms of their magnitude/measurements. So, for comparing quantities we use ratio - proportion.
Ratio :
The ratio between two quantities of the same kind and in the same units is a fraction that shows how many times the one quantity is of the other.
Thus, the ratio of two numbers 'a' and 'b' ( b≠ 0) is a ÷ b or a/b and is denoted by a : b.
In the ratio a : b, the quantities a and b are called the terms of the ratio. The former 'a' is called the
first term or antecedent
and the later 'b' is known as the
2nd term or consequent.
Thus in the ratio a : b, a ------> antecedent and b ---------> consequent.
We know that a fraction does not change when its numerator and denominator are multiplied or divided by the same non-zero number. So, a ratio does not alter, if its 1st and 2nd term are multiplied or divided by the same non-zero number.
45 : 15 = 90 : 30 [ Multiplying the 1st and 2nd term by 2 ]
24 : 36 = 8 : 12 [ Dividing the 1st term and 2nd term by 3 ]
Examples :
1) Express the following in the form to ratio.
a) The length of rectangle is double of its width.
Solution :
Ratio of length to width of the rectangle is 2 : 1 or length and width of the rectangle are in the ratio of 2 : 1.
b) For preparing tea for 3 people, we need 3 cups of water and 1 cup of milk require.
Solution :
Amount of water = 3 cups
Amount of milk = 1 cup
Ratio of water to milk = 3 : 1
Ratio of milk to water = 1 : 3

There were lots of brilliant hues on the SAG Awards carpet, but the classic black and white gowns were what caught our attention. Angelina Jolie and Emma Stone were just a few of the ladies donning black for the evening, while Zoe Saldana, Rose Byrne, and Viola Davis nailed it in gorgeous white ensembles.

Baby's First Movements!
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 08-10-2012 - 9:47am
Fluttering, bubbles, tickling, gas -- these are all terms moms-to-be have used to describe the feeling of baby's first noticeable movements. "Quickening" -- the technical term for this sensation -- is tough to describe since, as any mom can tell you, it feels like nothing else you've experienced. But it's often referred to in a? loving way, like butterfly kisses or fluttering wings. It's feeling you learn to cherish and is one of the most miraculous and enjoyable parts of pregnancy.
I know some ladies here have already felt the first nudges (and everyone else is probably eagerly waiting to feel them!).
BTDT ladies, how would you describe those first movements to a first-time mom?

I definitely feel litte pokes or thumps. Its unmistakable. -I don't feel fluttering or bubbles or anything like that. Just distinct little thumps.

Seriously - it was! Until the engine decided to blow and drown out the Reverend even with the loudspeakers on. Deafening roar when the valves open!
A blessing of the volunteers, station (Bishops Lydeard) and of Tornado on the West Somerset Railway, with the driver saying 'I didn't touch it'.
Not the best but for a really quick snatch I managed a couple of snaps, the second one I missed 'the Father' caught 'the Son' but missed the 'Holy Ghost'!
Amused me anyway

Looks a bit like a scene or two from the Immortal Father Ted, Bev. Good for you
Two interesting shots, I think trains are much more popular in GB than in Germany!

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

EAGAN, Minn. (WCCO) – A 58-year-old man has died after his minivan went off the road and into a pond in Eagan Friday morning.
According to police, a witness saw a minivan leave the roadway at Lexington Avenue and Clubview Drive at 7:33 a.m.
The minivan, driven by Thomas Heinz Iwen of St. Paul, went down a 10-foot retaining wall and crashed upside down into a collection pond.
Iwen was extricated from his vehicle by Eagan firefighters. He was taken by ambulance to Regions Hospital in St. Paul, where he later died.
He was the only passenger in the minivan.

I wanted to share my thoughts on smoking cigarettes and other tobacco-related stuff to you guys as well (Since I can't find another thread about it over here anyways). Being around people who smoke that doesn't bother me up to a point, but I seriously have no desire to smoke at all. In my opinion, If people wanted to damage their sight and lung capacity (and other bodily functions), then that's just their business.
What do you guys think of it? Do any of you smoke at all?

Bill Murray - Has Bill Murray Changed His Mind On 'Ghostbusters 3'?
Picture: Bill Murray Pro-am for the 2012 Irish Open held on the Dunluce Links at at Royal Portrush Golf Club Portrush, Northern Ireland - 27.06.12
This time last year, Bill Murray's potential involvement in a third Ghostbusters movie seemed dead and buried. Rumors were rife that the cult actor sent back a shredded script to his former co-stars DAN AKYROYD and Harold Ramis with a note attached. "No one wants to pay money to see fat, old men chasing ghosts," it supposedly read.
Ackroyd – who has been spearheading efforts to bring the much-loved series back to the big screen – has attempted to ignore the fact that a Ghostbusters 3 without Bill Murray would be utterly pointless. Speaking to the Metro earlier this year, he said, "It's sad but … Ghostbusters 3 can be a successful movie without Bill. My preference would be to have him involved but at this point he doesn't seem to be coming and we have to move on. It's time to make the third one." Still one of the most popular actors in Hollywood, Murray is key to ensuring 'Ghostbusters 3' remains credible and he gave studio bosses a huge boost this week at the Toronto Film Festival. Attending the premiere of his new movie 'Hyde Park on Hudson', the 67-year-old told Entertainment Weekly's Roz Weston that a new script is in the works, hinting that he would be willing to sign on should the writing be up to scratch. "It comes up a lot, the idea of doing another Ghostbusters, and we'll see, there's another script in the process and we'll see if it's good," Murray said. "It's got to be really good though because the first one was so great."
The actor – now noted for his collaborations with Wes Anderson - had touched upon the first script during his appearance on David Letterman's chat show in June. "They just don't have a really good script," he said. "It's hard. You know, even the second Ghostbusters wasn't as much fun for me as the first one. It's hard to make a sequel." Murray played Dr Peter Venkman in the 1984 original and the film's 1989 sequel.

GREENEVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A man convicted along with six co-defendants in a federal cocaine trafficking case in East Tennessee has been sentenced to life in prison.
A statement from the U.S. attorney's office said 38-year-old Sunnah Maddox of Utica, N.Y., and Johnson City was sentenced Monday.
The statement said Maddox by phone directed a "green light" on a co-defendant he believed had cooperated with investigators. An FBI specialist who analyzed coded conversations testified the "green light" was an order to kill or cause serious bodily harm to the person.
Maddox and others recruited couriers to transport kilograms of cocaine and money from Johnson City to Atlanta, Florida, and New York.
US Attorney Bill Killian said those already sentenced have "received and deserved the most serious punishment that the federal justice system can provide."

(CNN) -- The deaths of a father and his two daughters, whose bodies were discovered at Fort Hood, Texas, are being investigated as a possible murder-suicide, Army officials said Wednesday.
The bodies of the 43-year-old man and the two girls, ages 9 and 4, were found in on-post housing Tuesday morning, the Army said in a statement. The three were dependents of a female soldier who recently returned from an overseas deployment, it said.
"Although a final determination has not been made and the investigation is continuing, early indications are the deaths are possibly the result of a tragic murder-suicide involving the husband and the two children," the statement said.
Autopsies are being conducted by the Office of the Armed Forces Medical Examiner, the Army said.
The identities of the dead have not been released pending notification of next of kin.
CNN's Chelsea J. Carter contributed to this report.

Stuffed peppers
By Sarah Fritschner from July 2014 Issue
Great Cooking Tips
Preserving peppers and more
1.It takes about 9 pounds of peppers to make 9 full pints of canned jalapeños.
2. The University of Kentucky Extension Service recommends water-bath processing on jams, jellies, and pickles. Finishing these products in a water bath provides an additional barrier against spoilage. For more information on preserving pickles go online to www2.ca.uky.edu/agc/pubs/fcs3/
3. You can make stuffed peppers with mild banana peppers, which also freeze well. Blanching the peppers in boiling water ensures that they will cook evenly as they bake.

See the recipe
1 C brown or white rice (or 2 cups leftover cooked rice)
2 tsp salt
4 medium green or red peppers
1 lb ground beef, sausage, or lamb
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 small jalapeño, minced (optional)
1 tsp dried oregano
1⁄2 tsp black pepper
16 oz tomato sauce
1 C grated aged cheddar cheese
Servings 4
Preheat oven: 350°
Boil 2 cups water. Add 1 teaspoon salt and the rice, cover, and reduce heat to simmer—white rice for 20 minutes, brown rice for 40 minutes.
Boil a large pot of water. Cut peppers in half vertically, core, and trim white membrane. Add 4 halves to boiling water and cook 7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and repeat with remaining peppers.
Meanwhile, combine ground meat, onion, and jalapeño (if using) in a wide, deep skillet and cook over medium heat until onion softens, about 15 minutes, stirring to break up the meat. Drain if it seems fatty. Add remaining salt, oregano, pepper, cooked rice, and 1 cup tomato sauce. Stir gently.
Heat oven to 350°. Fill the pepper halves with meat mixture, and place them in a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Pour remaining tomato sauce over all and sprinkle with cheese. Bake 20 minutes or until sauce is bubbly. Note: Unbaked halves freeze well.
