Of course I have to start by saying how awesome it was to meet you last week making you my very first official Dismeet.
So cool that you keep learning new things about FOTLK.
I so wish they would move Poca back into that little obscure spot in Camp Minnie-Mickey where there never seemed to be a line. Now it's always huge.
Haha, Oh my gosh that was a serious flashback to Lia's Flynn experience when I read that. Too funny. Sad that the interactions weren't great though.

A Trick or Treat
Step one of this update:
-Go to this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kyq025yNAgE
-Click play
-Seriously, just do it
Are you listening to it? For real? Okay now lets begin . I had snagged a pretty sweet spot right up against the rope in Frontierland for the parade. After finalizing that I was staying here, I remembered how much I had hated how last years pictures from Frontierland had turned out, but oh well, I was here already, baha! A family squeezed in behind me right after the Horseman rode, and they had a smaller girl with them that I let squeeze in right beside me at the rope, never gonna turn that down, Im tall, I can always see over their heads, plus, she reminded me a TON of me when I was that age which was super adorable! The music started, I was dancing in my seat and SUPER excited to see the GREATEST PARADE OF MY LIIIIFFFFEEE again, like seriously, if you EVER have the chance to go to a MNSSHP, you just seriously NEED to, its so amazing!
During the first section of the parade, one of the kids in the family on the other side of me yelled out Alice! and pointed to Alice in the parade to which her Dad then replied Alice is right beside you . Yeah took a minute until I heard the wife mutter back Thats Wendy
The Winnie the Pooh gang is so freaking adorable in their COSTUMES, like, I love that all the characters are dressed up for the parade, it adds so much! Christopher Robin saw me, ran straight up to me and was all WENDY! and nearly started to say something else then was all Youre back there and pointed to the rest of the parade. I definitely noticed that it seemed like Christopher had been hanging out with Peter Pan the other day
PIRATES!! Guys seriously, this parade has everything!! The pirate section is amazing, theyre all just fantastic, and it is really impressive that theyre doing tricks with the flags during their choreo too, like, some of them might be trained in that kinda stuff before coming to Disney, but some of them arent, and the fact that they pick it up that quickly is just awesome! Also, poor kid beside me, when the pirate ship was going past, it let out a burst of smoke being a cannon going off and the girl got SO freaked out and ran back to stand with her Mom, it was so cute.
THERES AN ENTIRE SECTION, two if you will, DEDICATED TO THE FREAKING HAUNTED MANSION!!!!! I have minimal pictures here because I was busy taking video, BUT STILL! I mean, you start off and theres the graveyard watcher guy and HIS REAL DOG walking the parade route, followed by grave diggers who are all scary and dragging their shovels on the pavement creating SPARKS and then theres the FREAKING BALLROOM DANCERS!!
Like, ghosts, zombies, whatever you like to call them, waltzing, down the parade route, scaring you, and screaming, like, yes please. Let me do that PLEASE!
The next section was CHANGED from the year before! It had originally been a group of cowboys, dancing with lassos, then the float with the Country Bears on it, then the girls dancing with Chip, Dale, Brer Fox and Brer Bear. Well, if you know last years stories, I was pretty excited for the sexy cowboys to make a reappearance.
They did, but this year, they were dancing with the girls, with the float having Clarabelle Cow instead, directing them in a square dance partnering bit, and then followed by all the rest of the characters dancing behind. I was a little taken a back at first as I hadnt heard of this change, but hey, whatever, the cowboys choreo had been a little on the sexy side before, I wasnt too surprised they changed it. It was still on the saucy side too, it was just directed at the other performers rather than the guests this year. Which is, probably way more appropriate for Disney.
Western section aside, weve got some VILLAINS coming in next!
Cruella was walking the parade route and came right up to me, stopping to say Wendy!.....You got ooooollldd and then walk off, Baha! Stay classy Cruella! Also, in the video I linked, you can hear some dude say Look, its Lord Farquard when he sees Judge Frollo close but wrong company dude. I also noticed today that on the back of the float, the Tremaine sisters were in the cages that Pain and Panic were usually in! Changes due to the Villains thing over at DHS!
And of course then there was the Goofys candy finale bit, where the cast members give you CANDY, mainly if your bag is open and ready, but whatever, I wasnt too concerned with getting candy. They also took out the Cms pushing the Candy Co carts and replaced them with giant candy corn also known as the microphones from old DHS parades .
And that was that! ..for now . Lol.
Seriously, Boo To You is HANDS DOWN my absolute favorite parade, I will never see it enough times, and I will ALWAYS love it! The Halloween parties are worth it if you go in, see the parade, fireworks and villains show, nevermind if you do anything else. Like, its a steal of a deal if you think about it. I also give HUGE props to the parade performers, as they do the parade twice a night, and its doing the same minute and a half of choreo for 28 minutes! Eeek! The energy is so incredible, and everything is so awesome in Boo To You that I cannot rave about it enough, so I guess its good that Ive got more pictures and time to tell more stories.
NOW, please go to THIS:
Link, as it is this current years parade, and it also includes the Headless Horseman and intro speech and all, AND WATCH THE AMAZINGNESS THAT IS BOO TO YOOOOUUUU!!
Happy Halloween!!
With the parade over I followed it and the crowds over towards the Tangled bathrooms, and then cut through Fantasyland to meet a character or two, I thought about trick or treating, but it didnt really matter a whole lot to me to get candy I wouldnt eat lol! I stopped in Wonderland for a brief moment before making on my way!

A Spooky Villian Halloween!
The castle hub was my next spot, another Halloween treat and favorite is the Villains Mix and Mingle! Hosted by Dr Facilier and a crew of awesome dancers!
And just when you think its all about his friends on the other side, all the villains come out to play!
I was saddened to see that Cruella wasnt the same friend as previous years that I had loved so much, but later saw pictures of her over at DHS that night, so that made sense. I hoped she would pop up at later parties, but who knew for right now?
The show has a lot of neat choreographed moments in it, and the dancers are incredible, and the villains are fun, but I really wish there was a bit more too it. I wish there were more villains, or that theyd change them out every year, Id love to see Gaston, Mother Gothel, maybe even Elsa next year, up there lol! More face villains, or better choreo for the villains, I dunno, its a great show and I love it, I just wish they did more with it. I had checked my watch, and decided that I would skip out on meeting a villain, and jumped down Main Street!
The princesses currently had a wait time of twenty five minutes, which at just after 9 on a party night, was insane thank you Jack and Sally for taking the heat off them! And I certainly didnt wait the posted time either, I WALKED RIGHT INTO THE ROOM!
Middle of the party, and Im walking straight into the princess room, AS IF! Seriously, the 13th was the BEST night to be at MNSSHP, as everyone else was over at DHS in the MADHOUSE that was the Villains Bash. In hopes of the meet and greets redeeming themselves, Snow was up first! She was good, commented on my pixie dust, it was a lot like diamond dust, and she should tell the dwarves that soap is pixie dust so they wash up for dinner? I dunno, didnt really make sense to me, but I agreed. Her prince said it was so lovely to see me, and commented on our matching bows!
For Cinderella, since crowds were low, I decided to pull out a post card for her to sign this time around.
She said I had such a lovely color of dress, and it looked so good with my hair too Hey, us blondes know, blue looks great on us!
Rapunzel and Flynn, it was time to redeem yourselves are ya up to the challenge? Lets see. I walked up and again, had a post card for them to sign.
They asked about the friend it was for and I said that we love their movie and watch it all the time as its our favorite. Flynn asked if he knew all the names of the Snuggly Duckling crew, and I said no, but there WAS a night where he had spent a little time at a tavern and then sent me a video of him singing When Will My Life Begin (true story .)
Rapunzel got a little concerned and asked if he was better than her, which I said was definitely not true and Flynn laughed. Blondie stated that she was actually concerned, she wasnt fishing for compliments or anything, but I assured her that her version was much better.
I said thank you and then moved on out of the room. Was it better than the first trip through for the Tangled couple? Yes, was it the best, no, I dunno, there was definitely still something lacking for them that night, I did notice the same guy was hanging out with Euguene both times, but whatevs, I was still having a great night, and it was about to get EVEN MORE MAGESTIC!

This is halloween
Step 1: Click this link and click play:
I exited the princess hall and wandered down Main Street towards the hub, it was a little on the crowded side, but I expected it with it being Hallowishes time! The weather had started to take a turn around this point, and it started to spit a little bit, I was concerned that it would affect the show, but it never picked up to actually rain, so we were all good! The dark sky would just add to the effect as the villains and spooky masters took over the hub for the evening and the fireworks began!
Within seconds I was completely enthralled with the AMAZINGNESS that is Hallowishes! Like, yeah, Wishes is special and magical and tears on my heart strings, but Hallowishes is a completely different kind of show, and it BLOWS EVERYTHING ELSE OUT OF THE WATER!!!
I ended up taking WAY more pictures than I meant to, but hey, I was seriously in AWE, I was freaking out internally because I had forgotten just how INSANE these fireworks are. Im so impressed with the effects, the length of the show, the amount of fireworks going off, EVERYTHING. The fact that we get so much Nightmare Before Christmas music, and the villains all get their time to SHINE, and then Mr Oogie Boogie is all uhm no, this is not scary enough, let me KICK IT UP A NOTCH and like, the entire sky explodes into an amazing frenzy of amazingness!!
Those are some of my favorite effects, they spin around and rotate like little fireworks fans! So awesome! They also have effects that go off right on the castle, a little flash of firework for when the doorbell rings, its so awesome!
LOOK HOW FAR AWAY FROM THE CASTLE THE FIREWORKS GO! LIKE THIS IS CRAZY!! DISNEY HOW DO YOU DO THIS ITS SO AMAZING FIREWORKS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN! Im particularly fond of this next shot:
Like, the castle looks PUNY next to that thing, Im telling ya, these things are incredible. Then at the end, they encourage everyone to SCREAM and the firworks are LITERALLY GOING OFF AROUND THE ENTIRE FREAKING PARK, THEY COMPLETELY SURROUND THE HUB AND BRB I HAVE DIED OF HAPPINESS.
EVERYBODY SCREAM! EVERYBODY SCREAM! Happy, happy HALLOWEEEEEEENNNN!
Like, best day ever. I am dead. I have died. I kinda hung around out of the way for a bit, and noticed that EVERYONE was now headed to the exit, like, no joke folks, everyone was leaving. I was completely content with that, I would be totally okay if I was the only person watching the second parade! I did however, tweet to Susie, who Id meet up with at Animal Kingdom earlier in the day, and ran up to the train station to meet up with her again!
We chatted for a little bit, her Mom was with her, and she was headed back to the hotel I believe at this point, so they said a quick good bye but not before we had her take a quick couple of pictures for us!
Were cute. Lol. The Halloween party was the main topic of conversation obviously, and after a little bit of catching up we said our see ya soons and we set out on our own adventures!!

I probably say it every time, but alas I have to say it again. Boo to You is the best parade of all time anywhere. I think even if you don't like parades, you will like Boo to You. It's that good.
Wow, middle of the party and walked right into the princess room. Amazing.
Ahhh I love the spinny fireworks (official technical term) on the castle.

Man, I was all set to go back for Christmas next year and not do Halloween but after reading that, now I want to do both! I'm definitely getting an AP in February so maybe I can. Fingers crossed!
Glad that your Princess meets were a little better the second time around and bonus for no line!

Awesome Meets and Halloween Greets!
Hey guys! Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday already and that the rest of your Christmas/Boxing day and New Years is all wonderful and full of magic! I just wanted to update as I am headed to Edmonton tmr to spend Xmas with my family, work starts again right after that and New Years will be insane!!
A little life update: Steven's the best friend ever and got me BOTH the Anna and Elsa Animator Doll's!! BEST! I'm hoping to buy the Kristoff one once I find it and then they'll be complete!
ALSO; As many of you who follow along on Instagram/Facebook know, Disney posted auditions specifically for Elsa and Anna, and thanks to Paige being fantastic, I CAN GO! She said that she would pay for my flight because I've paid for her Disney trip before, and she has an amazing feeling about this audition. It's wonderful and so awesome that she's doing this for me and I am going to put my all into this audition and hopefully make some winterific friends in the process.
I had just said good bye for now to Susie and was heading down the train station stairs when I was trying to think of something else to do before the parade. I looked over to Jack and Sallys greeting area, but really didnt want to brave that line for a character whos movie Id seen once like, five years ago. However, my duty of best friend won over at least a little bit when I went up to the character host at the front of the line and asked if it was possible to just get one of the little autograph cards they were giving out. I explained that my best friend loved them, and that she was here a few weeks ago and so upset she missed Halloween. Well, the cast member was AMAZING, she quickly looked around, and then pulled out three of the cards from her satchel for me! I freaked out, thanked her profusely, and made sure to hand her one of the thank you cards I had printed off!
Yay! I had about twenty minutes I think, or so before the parade was scheduled to start way down in Frontierland, and I was planning on watching from the near empty Town Square, so what else to do but go see Mickey and Minnie! I hadnt seen either of them yet this trip, so why not?
I loved all the super cute decorations in the rooms in here. I also really like that they put Minnie in here still for Halloween, theyre so cute together! I didnt wait long before there were hugs all around!
Both Mickey and Minnie were super excited to see me, Minnie said that I looked lovely that evening, and then Mickey asked if I was having a fun time flying around, or at least, thats what I got lol!
I had to tell Mickey that I hadnt really been flying around since I didnt have quite enough pixie dust, Id have to get some more before Id be able to fly again, but that was okay!
The meet and greet was seriously beyond amazing and I absolutely loved how cute the two of them were! Mickey flying around was so adorable and they were both so enthusiastic, and talkative for some characters that couldnt talk, I left with a huge smile on my face and it was one of the best meets of the night!! It really goes so show that experiences are always different and what you expect to happen might not, tonight was a night of hits from characters I did not expect at all! Lol.
I exited the theater and it was still super empty in the square, but I did spot a familiar face! Well, kind of, lol. While Id been getting ready, Id looked through the MNSSHP tag on tumblr, and found a post from a girl saying that shed be solo at the party that night, dressed as Giselle, so when I spotted a Giselle around the right age, I walked up and said hello! She was with a friend now, but she was still super friendly and it was awesome to meet another Disney lover. I chatted with her and her friend for a bit, and asked if it was okay if I watched the parade with them, so I had some new friends! Baha! I think, from what I remember, that she works over at Disneyland, or did, one of the two, and the friend she was with works at WDW, and judging by the amount of interaction she got in the parade, Id say its safe to say shes in entertainment lol.
We hung around for a bit, watched the Creepa Crew come along before the parade, and checked out some awesome costumes.
And before we knew it, the Horseman was riding, and we could hear sounds of Boo To You off in the distance as the PARADE WAS GETTING NICE AND CLOSE TO US AND I WAS JUST AS FREAKING EXCITED AS I HAD BEEN THE FIRST TIME MY LOVE WAS COMING BACK ALREADY!!
When I had planned on where to watch the parade, I had actually taken into consideration that I wanted to be on the opposite side of the street as earlier, to get different pictures/characters on that side, so it was nice that that worked out! I also absolutely LOVE the parade from Main Street at the later time because there arent any crowds, and thanks to that, you get WAY more character interaction, it helps when youre with cast members too lol. Wendy came RIGHT up to me and started talking to me, she asked if I read bedtime stories, and which was my favorite, I couldnt pick, but she said Peters favorite was Cinderella! The interaction was amazing, and a week or so after the trip, I got a lovely submission on tumblr that the girls I was with had actually gotten a picture of it! YAY!
I WAS SO HAPPY to get that picture! Were so cute! Lol. Like, shes so cute, it was so awesome that she stopped right there, and it was great as Peter and her arent out at parties! It also shows what a WONDERFUL job Shannon did on the costume!! Theyre so similar and its perfect and I was VERY happy.

Mickey's Extra Scary Halloween Party
Here comes my favorite pppaaaaarrrrtttttt ..
Sigh, so amazing! I was super happy to be in at least slightly better lighting for the parade on this end of the park!
This time around, I was taking more note of the choreo that the cowboy section had, now that the shock of the change had worn off, I realized just how difficult it was, like the choreo was impressive and definitely actually dancing versus grapevine-ing and jumping your way down the parade route with some box steps in there kinda thing. It was super awesome and I was even more impressed with how much energy the performers still had at the end of the parade route on their second time doing it!
As the parade finished, we chatted for a tad longer, talking about how awesome Boo To You was for the parade performers, they actually do get to dance in it, and actually show off their skills. Most of the parade performers are obviously, heavily trained dancers, and probably all have the ability to do stuff like Dream Along, but in parades the choreos always so much easier because youre doing it for so long that it needs to be simple and clean. Then Boo To You comes along and its like, completely and totally awesome and amazing for everyone!! I said good bye to the new friends, and thanked them for letting me watch the parade with them, and then kinda looked around, where to next? I could leave, I could watch another villains show, and then it clued in to me, the line for Jack and Sally was looking particularly low, so I scurried on over there!
I jumped in the line at 11:10 and waited for a little bit, they went in for a break at 11:30 and I was a little concerned at what Id gotten myself in to, but it turns out they run Jack and Sally like fur characters, as they came RIGHT back out, and the total time I waited? A mere 25 minutes people had been waiting upwards of 3 hours for these two and I waited UNDER half an hour, this was the same party that I walked right into the princess room at 9pm, clearly, it was a good day to be at MNSSHP!
When it was my turn I quickly asked the two if I could get a picture of just the two of them, since they were my best friends favorite!
I then passed my phone off to the photopass photographer, and realized I recognized him from the princess room the day before, so I commented to make sure he got some selfies on there, and went to chat with the spooky couple.
Uhm yeah hes my favorite
They asked if I was having a spooky night, and if Id seen lots of scary things, and I said I was of course. I know we talked about the parade and fireworks, and Jack commented that it really should be Mickeys Very Extra Scary Halloween Party instead of this not so scary nonsense! Lol. Sally reminded him that it was because of the little goblins, and they scare so easily and such. They really were great! Sally was gorgeous too! I mean, for knowing like, nothing about them, Id say it was a pretty awesome interaction!
I said good bye to them, and then decided that it was time to call it a night. It had been a LONG couple of days so far, another early morning the next day, and Im pretty sure it was near midnight anyways!
I ended the night with an attempt at a cute selfie saying that Wendy had had such a blast at Mickeys Party and couldnt wait til the next one!
It was an absolutely great experience. I know that I had some grumpy moments, and there were some times where I was all eck, crowds, people, why? but then I reminded myself that I was in the most awesome of events, and hey, I wasnt over at DHS in that MADHOUSE! I was SUPER glad Id made the MNSSHP plans when I heard how horrible it was over there. I still havent managed to watch any of the video from the Villains night, but Im hoping they make it a hard ticket party event in the future, or at least bring Meg and Hades out for more meet and greets.
ANYWAYS. I jumped on a bus home and crept into the hotel room and into bed trying not to wake Mom or Anne at all, it had been a wonderful night!

Read the full study (here)
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (AP) -- Someone obviously not bothered by heights has painted two large faces high on a silo at a former General Mills plant in Johnson City.
Police say they have no leads on who spray-painted the images on the building over the weekend.
The plant is owned by the Johnson City-Jonesborough-Washington County Chamber of Commerce.
Chamber President and CEO Gary Mabrey told the Johnson City Press he hopes nobody gets hurt while painting graffiti and says the group will prosecute if the culprits are caught.
Early this year, someone scaled the five-story building and spray-painted "We're all gonna die."
Johnson City Police are patrolling the plant more often and ask anyone seeing people painting graffiti on it to call 911.

Does the printer need one large cartridge as it takes 5 of them and the slot for the 5th cartdidge looks bigger.
If one cartridge runs dry can I still continue printing or need to replace it to continue.
3 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
Ink cartridges are available in standard & high capacity. There are 5 individual ink cartridges: magenta, cyan, yellow, photo black (for shading the colors) & black. Photo black & black are 2 distinct carts, they cannot substitute for each other. Each color cart has a symbol which matches a specific slot in the ink bay
As for cost, the XL carts, which are higher capacity, are the better value. Although each color cart is sold individually, the color 4-pack is usually the best price; includes magenta, cyan, yellow & photo black. The black cart is sold separately from the color 4-pack
Cheers !

Most HP Photosmart printers have five slots for ink. The four that are smaller/same size, are for (a) black photo ink, (b) magenta, (c) cyan, and (d) yellow. The fifth (large) slot is for black ink. This is a much larger slot, since most of the printing one does is black-on-white, so one will use black ink at a much higher rate.

The black cartridge is bigger as it is used most often this is why one cartridge looks bigger.

6 Things to Ask Before Diving Into Pool Ownership
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- If you're thinking of installing a pool for summer or maintaining the one you have, the cost may seem prohibitive. With proper upkeep, though, the cost of pool ownership per month is far less than the average weekend getaway. Here's a look at some of the most frequently asked questions surrounding pool ownership and what you can do to keep your costs low.
How much will my pool really cost to run and maintain during the summer months?
The cost for running on a residential pool will vary according to region, says Willan Johnson, CEO of VivoPools, based in Los Angeles. On average, the cost is $200 per month, and it breaks down like this:
- Electrical costs to run equipment: $80 per month
- Electrical/ Gas costs to heat pool or spa during swim season: $80 per month
- Costs of chemicals: $20 per month
- Costs of equipment repairs/maintenance: $20 per month
"It's hard to put a financial return on investment on pool ownership," Johnson says. "Some families spend $2,500 per year eating out in restaurants -- it all depends on how you want to spend your money. If you think your pool is a worthwhile investment, the costs associated with maintaining it are just factored in to the overall budget of your home."The cost to hire a professional service company -- a "pool boy" -- costs around $100 per month in California, around $160 in Texas and about $380 in New York and New Jersey.

What happend to Nnamdi?
Curious as to what everyone thinks of Asomaugh at this point. It seems like he went from best in the league (better than champ or revis) to being a cast off in like 2 years. That's a historically bad drop in cb play over such a short amount of time. I don't know if he would be a good fit for the Broncos or anything but I can't believe that he is bad enough to be released off a team.
What happened to him?
He got released? The eagles happened.
Yup, the eagles happened. Not only that though, I remember being shocked at the huge contracts numbers people were saying he deserved. I always saw him as a solid corner and even pretty darn good, but not top 10 corners of a generation like the hype was during his contract year.
If I remember correctly (could be wrong), Nnamdi made his reputation by being an excellent press man corner - which he still might be very good at. The Eagles (in their wisdom) decided to use him mostly in zone and off coverage and made him look pedestrian. He still might be very good on the right team.
I could be wrong, but that's what I heard on the light rail.
the Eagles are dumb as hell that's what. he's a press man corner that they keep using in zone and soft off coverage.
that'd be like the Jets putting Revis 6 yards off the line and allowing guys to make catches and then tackle him.
The Eagles tried to change things up for him some this past season and he still underperformed. So while I do think he was misused some I also think he regressed some and may not have been quite as good as everyone thought he was to begin with. He'll also be 32 when next season starts.
And he clearly didn't enjoy his time in Philly. Check this out:
Nmandi is a man to man corner and he stinks in a zone. Don't sign him unless you plan on using him 1 on 1. You don't move him around or have him chase guys in motion. You let him camp on his side and just cover whichever outside WR lines up in front of him.
Looks like I don't have any work here to be finished.
Bad news is that Rhodes and Trufant both ran so good at the combine they won't be around when the Broncos pick. Good news is that means like usual really good guards people though would go top 25 don't.
Trufant ran a sub 4.4 and was a stud at the SR bowl. He's not going to last. Which sucks because hes a true stud at CB IMO.
Raiders always looked for man to man guys and thats what he is. Still he is older now and past his prime so I doubt he gets a huge offer.
But some team will sign him to a deal larger then Broncos probably willing to give. There are 3 CBS I wouldn't mind having in the first round.
We never had a problem throwing against him when he was a Raider. Never understood the hype.
He was a very good corner, but he can only do one thing, and thats man to man coverage.
Who knows exactly all the reasons why he is slumping. Maybe he's just not super motivated with the team he is on and the style of play. I imagine a trade will happen. They don't want him anymore and he doesn't want to be there.
Thats how it goes for corners and WR sometimes. Only a few are good old like Green and Bailey, Woodson, Tim Brown etc etc. Others are one of the better ones in the league for 4-5 yrs but can't maintain that like the great players.
Nmandi may just be one of those mortal players with a 3-5 yr peak period that is now just over with. But I still think he's probably a starter in this league.
doesn't mean he doesn't do one much more efficiently than the other.
and he's definitely better on Revis island than sagging off in zone.
Denver could use him,del Rio would like nothing more than 2 corners that can go 1 on 1.
If he's cut, bring him in.
Voice of Gimli the Dwarf: ". . . he fell."

I said I'd use the next few posts to share what I learned at a recent conference on behavioral addictions. I should emphasize that the conference, held in Budapest, was billed as the the First International Conference on Behavioral Addictions. The idea that gambling, hypersexualized behavior, eating disorders (including obesity), and internet addictions are in fact addictions is quite new, and even today there are many professionals, policy-makers, and researchers who bristle at the thought.
Think for a moment about the implications. If the medical world accepts, say, internet addiction and eating problems as addictions, requiring treatment, then insurance companies in the U.S. will go belly-up within weeks. Not that they don't deserve it. Also, if internet use is an addiction, then how do parents and teachers moderate kids' internet use? Almost nobody would claim that internet use should be forbidden, yet, if it's addictive, then shouldn't it be tightly controlled? These are just a few of the problems society will face when behavioral addictions are acknowledged as addictions.

Worst Parent Ever? 7 Sticky Situations and How to Deal
The Public Meltdown
No mom has ever escaped the threat of the stage-five meltdown in front of others. Whether it's the store, the park, the library or anywhere else your kid's expected to behave, going public with a small child is a lot like walking through a minefield. As your child wails and carries on, you probably start feeling like you should never leave the house again. How to deal: Yup, we'll admit that the public tantrum sucks. But the best way to deal is to refuse to deal at all. Leave ASAP; there's probably some specific reason that your little one is acting up, like hunger or fatigue. Both of you should take a time-out before braving the store again.

This is a wonderful recipe! I love the lemon zest, cinnamon & ginger kick.... The only thing I did differently with this recipe was instead of using vegan butter or margarin, I used extra virgin coconut oil - which is solid at room temperature and cuts into the flour mixture beautifully!!!! I always substitute coconut oil this way instead of using lard or other fats - you can use this trick in pastries as well :) I recommend trying it - it's way healthier for you than using processed vegan versions
It tasted soooooooo good!!!

I'm not sure if this sentence is correct. Please help me!
I wish Charles worked as hard as Mary ....
I'd use "did" because of the phrase "Charles worked". Is it correct?
Thanks for your help!
It depends entirely on the meaning: 'does' if you are comparing Charles work-rate with Mary's current work-rate, 'did' if you are comparing it with her past work-rate.
Thank you very much!

Some tips 4 u
People would usually not really care about the game corner but it can get you some maybe not legendary but some pretty rare pokemon.
When you are getting pretty rich in pokedollars go to cleadon city and buy heaps of coins at the game corner. Yoy need 6,500 coins, but you should play it safe with 7,000. Now go next door into the smaller bulding. At the middle counter go buy a porygon.
Now go to fuschia safari zone. you need at least surf of a super rod. go to the large area of water- the one with the island and start fishing wit your rod.
It may take a couple of tries, but if you are persistent you can catch a dratini (one of dragonites previous evoltions)
Now you have maybe not legendary but rare pokemon.

Since the dimmer is part of the headlight switch I would say that it's a good chance that's your problem. You can try pulling out the switch, leave it connected to the wiring and wiggle the wiring and connector and make sure they are OK.

its the multifunction switch, they are known to go out,, same as the Impallas...

It is probably the multi function switch. The same thing happened to me and it cost me almost $800 to fix it.

You may be accidentally hitting the interior light over-ride button 2-4 times. By doing this, it will turn your head lights off.

Katie Couric, Steve Harvey, Ricki Lake and Jeff Probst: The Search for the Next Oprah (INSIDE STORY)
Two lessons of the daytime TV arena, now that undisputed all-time champ Oprah Winfrey has retired her jersey after 25 years: First, it takes a rare talent to attract and maintain the loyalty of daytime audiences as she did. Second, the stakes are enormous, so a lot of people want to try.
That explains the everybody-into-the-pool approach that the networks and syndicators have taken this fall, with no fewer than five contenders introducing new daytime shows this month. (And at least three more are on the way in the months to come). Some are better known than others, some have more relevant experience than others, but all have backers who are betting millions that they can capture at least some of Winfrey's old audience and reap an advertising windfall.
Of course, not all of them can; indeed, two years from now, most (maybe all) of these shows will have been canceled. Already, the ratings battle between Katie Couric (the highest-profile of the new launches) and Steve Harvey (the only one whose new show has already been spoofed on Saturday Night Live) has seen dramatic shifts, and the season is less than two weeks old. Still, it's possible that one of the five newcomers -- Couric, Harvey, Ricki Lake, Jeff Probst, and Trisha Goddard -- can be the next Oprah. Or perhaps none of them can, either because the title already belongs to someone else, or because no one can.
Here's our breakdown of the increasingly crowded daytime melee.
Each of the five new shows comes with its own dramatic backstory. Can Couric (along with her producer, successful Today showrunner-turned-failed NBC programming chief Jeff Zucker) recapture her former daytime glory? Can Harvey successfully juggle a talk show along with his many other gigs (morning radio show, stand-up comedy, bestselling author, host of Family Feud)? Can Lake, who had a successful talk show for 11 years but left the field in 2004, match her former success? Can Survivor host Probst bring his rugged, outdoorsy appeal to a daytime couch? Can British import Goddard gain a foothold in America? And can her specialty, which is conflict resolution,remind viewers more of of the holistic Oprah than such chair-tossing sideshows as Maury and The Jerry Springer Show?
There's a lot riding on the answers to those questions. ABC has spent a reported $40 million (some say $80 million) to launch Katie and bumped venerable soap General Hospital up an hour to make room for it. CBS spent $30 million on The Jeff Probst Show, including construction of a studio with a camera-equipped "party room" where the audience can enjoy refreshments and massages before the show. NBC and syndicator Endemol have spent $25 million to get Steve Harvey up and running. And Ricki Lake's show seems a relative bargain for Fox, with a launch cost of just $20 million.
At stake is an audience of home viewers aged 25 to 54 who are 80 percent women. It's a viewership that grows ever smaller as the number of work-at-home housewives dwindles and other distractions (the Internet, e-readers, proliferating cable channels) increase. In Winfrey's prime, she was able to monetize that audience to the tune of $300 million a year, not counting the proceeds from her non-TV media empire. No one is earning that kind of money now, though some veteran shows still gross nine figures.
So, who among the newcomers is winning the race? Early ratings tell a conflicting story. Couric started out strongest, though her ratings had already begun to slump by the end of her first week. Harvey, on the other hand, began to pull ahead among women viewers aged 25- 54, coming on strong enough to boost the ratings of Ellen, which follows his show. Meanwhile, Probst's ratings are so low that, according to the New York Post, reps for Queen Latifah (who is planning to return to the talk show arena next year) are already reaching out to local stations in the hopes of poaching Probst's timeslot if he goes under. (The tribe has spoken.)
Still, even if three or four of these new shows fail, the survivor isn't necessarily going to be the next Oprah. "There can be no next Oprah, those days are gone," Denver Post TV critic Joanne Ostrow told Celebuzz. Not just because the audience is smaller, but also because there's already a new Oprah..
"The reigning queen of daytime is Ellen [DeGeneres], and she's doing as well as anyone can in this increasingly fragmented media universe," Ostrow said.
Now in its tenth season, Ellen DeGeneres' show earns a reported $100 million a year. She could be considered the new Oprah in terms of longevity, household name-recognition, and positive vibes. Or maybe the new Oprah is Wiinfrey protege Dr. Phil McGraw, whose 11-year-old show is the most popular in raw numbers and is even more profitable than Ellen (at $150 million a year). In terms of sheer profit, the new Oprah is Judge Judy, a show that earns $200 million a year, including $50 million for the judge herself, Judy Sheindlin. Like other courtroom shows, hers is dirt cheap to produce, and it does well in reruns since it's not tied to current events.
Of course, there are plenty of other rising contenders. There's Winfrey's other successful protege, Dr. Oz. There's Wendy Williams, who's starting her fourth season of celebrity gossip. There's Anderson Cooper, who has totally revamped his show in just his second season. There's Michael Strahan, who in just a couple of weeks has brought renewed life to new partner Kelly Ripa's on Live!, which went for nearly a year without a cohost after Regis Philbin left. And there's all the panel shows, game shows, and other syndicated fare, all chasing the same pool of money.
Even if that pool is shrinking, it's still big enough for a handful of hosts to get rich, if not Oprah-rich.
"The syndication game is about making money, not rising to the level of Oprah-esque dominance with books, magazines and the rest of the media empire," Ostrow said. "And it's possible to make good money with a smaller audience than once tuned in during the daytime hours."
Which is good, because there are still more new hosts yet to come. Due in October is Marie Osmond's chatfest on the Hallmark Channel. Former Real Housewife of New York Bethenny Frankel has a show in the works, due back on the air soon after a successful summer tryout in six markets. And of course, Queen Latifah is circling the runway and waiting for clearance to land. If none of these hosts becomes the next Oprah, it won't be for lack of trying.
Who do you think can or already does fill Winfrey's shoes?

Hey guys. I found this recipe for a Cherry "Lambic." From my understanding, true lambics take a long time to condition-this one obviously doesn't. I'm not too worried about the true defenition of lambic, more worried that it will be tasty. What do you think of the recipe?Dark Cherry Lambic
5 LB. Munton's plain light DME
2 LB. wheat malt extract
3-1/2 oz. malto dextrin
1 oz. Hallertau hops
1 can Oregon Dark Sweet Cherry Puree
Wyeast #3278 Lambic Blend
Dissolve the light malt extract, wheat malt extract and malto dextrin in warm water. Bring to a boil and add hops. Boil for 45 minutes. Strain out hops. Add enough water to the fermenter to make 4.5 gallons and cool to 70 degrees. Pitch yeast, add fruit puree and ferment for 3 weeks Rack into secondary fermenter and condition for a week at 60-65 degrees. Bottle condition using corn sugar for priming.
Would you suggest adding the cherry into the secondary instead of the primary? I want to get a higher ABV out of this beer, would adding brown sugar be worth the try? Thanks for any advice!
I don't see the point in using a lambic blend if you're going to drink this after just 4 weeks.
Lambic blend is a mix of regular ale yeast, plus lactobacillus, pediococcus, and brettanomyces. The ale yeast will finish primary fermentation within a couple of weeks, but these other organisms take many months before they will have any flavor effect at all. And once they do kick in a couple of months after the ale yeast is done, they will make the beer look and taste pretty nasty while they are working on it! It takes a long time for them to calm down again and leave something tasty behind.
So if you're going to drink after one month, I question what is the point of adding these bugs at all. You'll just be drinking regular ale, which will have a tiny amount of these other bugs in it but they won't have affected the flavor at all. It'll taste good, but you could get the same result more predictably by using a regular ale yeast.
I also think this recipe would make good beer using the lambic blend. But if you're going to use that, you should wait at least a year for it to do its stuff.
Way ...
But when I see the letters L A M B I C all strung together. My mouth kind of waters. And not in a good way.
The kind of way it does when I see a watermelon jolly rancher. Hate the things...but it's an involuntary reaction.
*******Check Out My Rolling KegeratorBierMuncher Tried & Trues: Tits-Up IIPA (3-Time Medalist), Black Pearl Porter, Kona Pale Ale, Outer Limits IPA, Centennial Blonde (4.0%), Nierra Sevada (SNPA), SWMBO Slayer Belgian Blonde,
That's great advice. I'm glad I checked. So If I use ale yeast, what about the fruit? Add to the secondary (as I've heard around here) or to the primary as suggested?

Sentencing Of Fundraiser To Drag Into Next Week
CHICAGO (AP) -- The sentencing of a fundraiser for imprisoned Gov. Rod Blagojevich and other politicians will drag into next week as testimony meant to help determine an appropriate punishment continues.
Two days of hearings so far in Raghuveer Nayak's case ended Thursday. U.S. District Judge Robert Gettleman told attorneys scheduling conflicts prevent him from resuming until Monday. And the process could be extended beyond then.
Nayak has pleaded guilty to bribing physicians for patient referrals to clinics he owns. The 58-year-old Chicago-area businessman faces a maximum 23-year prison term.
Under certain circumstances, a federal sentencing judge can factor in wrongdoing a defendant was never indicted for.
Prosecutors want the judge to consider, among other things, how Nayak allegedly schemed to generate cash. They say he then used it for bribes.

Nouveau Makes Its Own NV40 Firmware Replacement
Since last week the DRM code for the Nouveau driver has been in the mainline kernel code-base for its official debut with the Linux 2.6.33 kernel. However, by default this DRM will not work with hardware newer than the GeForce 5 series as there is some firmware that must be loaded. Due to legal issues with this firmware/microcode (referred to as "ctx_voodoo"), this binary code must be installed separately if you wish to use Nouveau with one of the newer NVIDIA graphics cards.

Nouveau To Go Into Linux 2.6.33 Kernel!
Wow, the day has come, open-source fans with NVIDIA hardware that run Linux have quite the present this holiday season. Yesterday there was the first DRM pull request for the Linux 2.6.33 kernel that brought many changes to the ATI/AMD and Intel DRM along with other core DRM improvements (such as to the TTM memory manager). These changes were quite significant and we even called it a great present in the Linux 2.6.33 kernel.

Nouveau To Enter The Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Kernel
The Nouveau driver, the X.Org project designed to provide a open-source NVIDIA graphics driver for Linux with 2D/3D/Video acceleration that's developed by cleanly reverse-engineering NVIDIA's binary driver, is about to get promoted in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. The Nouveau project has been around for years now and continues to make progress but there has yet to be a stable release of any component -- even just a DDX driver -- although their current feature matrix is reflecting that 2D and X-Video support is complete for all NVIDIA graphics hardware generations, many output-related features (RandR 1.2, KMS, NouveauFB) are done, and the 3D work using Gallium3D is even progressing. The only Linux distribution to currently deploy the Nouveau driver stack by default is Fedora, considering the driver isn't even in the kernel's staging tree. This though may soon change.

Nouveau Developments: KMS, Suspend & Resume
Yesterday there was a news article on Phoronix entitled What's Up With RadeonHD and Nouveau? As was mentioned in that article, not a lot of news has come out of either X.Org project in recent months nor any driver releases (except that changed for RadeonHD yesterday afternoon) and users have started to wonder about the project's status. Never once did we imply that the Nouveau driver was dead, but that it was "not accelerating as fast as some would like." Nouveau's Ben Skeggs though felt differently and has now written a blog post detailing some of the recent developments for this open-source NVIDIA driver.

What's Up With RadeonHD & Nouveau?
Yesterday in the Phoronix Forums it was asked what's up with the Nouveau and RadeonHD drivers, which happens to be a very good question. The last time we had much to report on with regard to RadeonHD, the driver created by Novell for use with ATI R500+ GPUs, was back in July when it received better power management capabilities. The last time we had much to report on with Nouveau, the community-spawned driver to provide an open-source 2D/3D driver for NVIDIA hardware, was back in April when talking about using the Nouveau driver in Ubuntu 9.04. The last time, however, that there was a Nouveau Companion update was back in March. While news and major advancements with these two open-source drivers have been lacking lately, both projects are still surely in existence.

Testing Out The Nouveau Driver On Fedora 11
With the forthcoming release of Fedora 11, Red Hat has made the bold (but wise) decision of replacing xf86-video-nv as the default open-source NVIDIA driver with the Nouveau driver instead. The xf86-video-nv driver is officially maintained by NVIDIA, but it's their half-assed attempt at being open-source friendly. The X.Org driver's code is obfuscated, its 2D support is limited, there is no 3D acceleration at all, and it barely receives new features and support these days. Meanwhile, a group of open-source developers have been reverse-engineering NVIDIA's binary Linux driver to write the Nouveau driver that will offer 2D, 3D, and video acceleration and aims to be feature-complete. The Nouveau project has been around for a few years, but their code is starting to come to maturation with kernel mode-setting and a Gallium3D driver hopefully being stable by year's end.

Recently they began work on Kernel-based mode-setting and NV50 series EXA Composite / X-Video support, but this news is different.

Nouveau NV50 X-Video, EXA Comp. Support
While Nouveau's Maarten Maathuis is busy working on NV50 kernel mode-setting support, Ben Skeggs has been working on a variety of 3D / video features for the NV50 class GPUs. Committed to their development repository tonight is NV50 X-Video support, tile off-screen pixmaps, EXA composite support, and cleaning up some of the code define statements. With this support being all reverse-engineered as NVIDIA is against an open-source strategy the level of support may vary between graphics processors and some of the functionality may be broken or not fully implemented (yet).

Nouveau NV50 KMS Work Continues
Late last month we reported on Nouveau Kernel-Based Mode-Setting Support (or KMS for short) for the NVIDIA GeForce 8 series graphics cards. This kernel mode-setting support isn't perfect (yet) and lacks support for several features, but it's continued to progress since we first mentioned this support on the horizon. Over the past few days there have been several more NV50 (GeForce 8) kernel mode-setting commits. NV50 KMS now supports gamma changes, unaccelerated rotation support, auto detection of kernel mode-setting when active, output DPMS, and other changes. If you're interested in trying out this initial Nouveau kernel mode-setting support, checkout the xf86-video-nouveau driver from its git repository. For more information on KMS, checkout our Preview of Kernel-Based Mode-Setting.

NVIDIA GeForce 8 Kernel Mode-Setting
Earlier this week we shared that work on Nouveau Companion has been halted until at least the end of August and the project has been in a state of disarray due to the project's leader, Stephane Marchesin, evaluating future job opportunities -- therefore putting his non-paid Nouveau work on the back burner. Some readers have expressed concern whether Nouveau will be able to continue full-speed ahead, but today there is some good news coming out of this reverse-engineered NVIDIA camp.

Work On Nouveau Companion Halted
It's been over a month since Nouveau Companion 39, but don't expect the 40th edition of the Nouveau Companion to come anytime soon. In a message to Phoronix, the Nouveau Companion's lead writer "KoalaBR" has said "the project is in a kind of hiatus." This is mostly because Stephane Marchesin, the leader of Nouveau, has been missing due to looking at future job opportunities. In addition, KoalaBR is in a similar boat. The Nouveau Companion isn't being disbanded quite yet, but a new edition won't be out until at least the end of August.

Nouveau Gets 13 Commits For NV50
Yesterday the RadeonHD driver had 55 commits, which consisted of major code restructuring and laying down the groundwork for TV-Out support and most notably the open-source support for the Radeon HD 3400 / 3600 series (Radeon HD 3650 Linux review). Today the Nouveau developers are in the spotlight with their own arsenal of new open-source NVIDIA activity.

DETROIT (AP) -- U.S. auto sales hit a five-year high in 2012, as low interest rates, improving consumer confidence and -- most important -- some great new cars drew buyers into dealerships.
Sales of new cars and trucks are expected to reach 14.5 million for 2012, up 13 percent from the year before. That not quite a return to the boom times of 2005, when sales hit 17 million. But sales are 40 percent higher than they were at the depths of the recession in 2009.
Here are the highlights and lowlights of 2012, and what's coming from the industry in 2013:
