Shop Pink Looks Inspired by Pedro Lourenco
Since his Paris Fashion Week debut in 2010, 22-year-old Pedro Lourenco's work has grown and changed in too many ways to count. For one, he's using plenty of materials other than leather (for a while, he made everything with it). He's also developed a certain affinity for the color pink. For Spring 2013, we loved his mix of fuchsia, cotton candy and bubble gum, interwoven with black, white and silver. Click through to shop pink looks inspired by Lourenco's collection.

Sometimes it's critical to know distance. And when it is, you can rely on the Bushnell Yardage Pro Legend Waterproof laser rangefinder to tell you. The Yardage Pro Legend will measure the distance to any target within its 930-yard range. And it'll give you a digital readout - all at the speed of light!
The Yardage Pro Legend works by projecting a laser beam to any target you choose and waiting for it to bounce back. Using digital technology and an ultra-high-speed clock, the Legend calculates the bounce-back time, then determines distance with phenomenal accuracy. You'll get LCD readouts accurate to +/- 1 yard - an error rate so small, it'll make no difference for nearly any use you can think of.
For hunters, the waterproof Yardage Pro Legend is ideal. It'll give you spot-on distance-to-target out to its maximum range. With that info dialed into your sight or scope, you can take your shot in confidence and bag that nifty trophy. Golfers will appreciate the Yardage Pro Legend, too. By giving accurate distance to the pin, it'll take the guesswork out of club selection. You'll get on the green more often, and that'll shave strokes off your game.

Fascinating firsthand accounts of the Titanic–in a deluxe package with gorgeous graphic cover art.
Historic firsthand accounts and testimonies by survivors and eye- witnesses including Lawrence Beesley, Margaret Brown, Archibald Gracie, Carlos F. Hurd and many more.
"With its detailed stories from survivors of the disaster, Titanic, First Accounts is hugely engaging and adroitly debunks some of the event's great myths. ("Nearer, My God, to Thee" wasn't actually the last song played by the ship's band.) The eyewitness testimonies are equal parts illuminating and haunting, revealing intimate conversations with surviving passengers who didn't fully grasp the scope of the unfolding devastation until it was too late."

I Don't Even Know How to Respond
Recently, I began to put my foot back into the dating waters. It has been 25 years since I was single and a good thirty years before I really was single for very long. I had my five children very young (starting at 21 and ended with my youngest of 5 at 31). They are incredibly successful (small understatement), but more than that, they are great children. I am walking a very public journey due to how my husband was killed and the fire blazing within. Here is my problem. On initial dates, everyone asks about my children. Even though I run down the list with the very minimum of basics, the two men I have gone out with still have children at home and they kept telling me how intimidating it was to have my children be doing so well. I am never sure what to say. I say nothing which leads me to feel embarrassed by the fact they are doping well. Suggestions?

Verisign Labs Distinguished Speaker Series is a quarterly forum to bring together members of the technical community to network and listen to distinguished speakers about issues related to internet technology.
Molecular nanotechnology, the ability to economically manufacture most arrangements of atoms permitted by physical law, is going to fundamentally alter our manufacturing technology. It will let us make remarkably light and strong materials, nanorobotic medical devices able to heal and cure even the gravest of injuries, and perhaps most obviously molecular computers orders of magnitude more powerful than any that exist today. Molecular nanotechnology will let us build and interconnect mole quantities of atomically precise logic gates in the complex patterns required by modern computer architectures. Beyond this, molecular nanotechnology should let us build quantum computers (QCs), if this has not been achieved earlier by other methods. This implies that, one way or another, QCs are in our future. This, of course, means all of our existing public-key cryptosystems (PKCSs) will become vulnerable to attack. As the time to develop new, QC-resistant PKCSs is long, the time to certify them is long, the time to standardize them is long, the time to deploy them is long, and the time for existing systems to finally be replaced is long, even if a QC is 20 years away starting the process today might already be too late. And no one really knows how long it might be before someone has a QC.
We should begin immediate development and deployment of a suite of conventional cryptographic protocols that do not use PKCSs to replace today's widely used public-key based protocols. AES and SHA-2 or SHA-3 can be used now. Conventional key distribution protocols using key distribution centers are well known. Digital signatures believed to be QC-resistant are known. This effort should be relatively straightforward and could proceed much more rapidly.
Dr. Merkle received his Ph.D. from Stanford University in 1979 where he co-invented public key cryptography. He joined Xerox PARC in 1988, where he pursued research in security and computational nanotechnology until 1999. He was a Nanotechnology Theorist at Zyvex until 2003, when he joined the Georgia Institute of Technology as a Professor of Computing until 2006. He is now a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for Molecular Manufacturing, on the faculty at Singularity University, a Director of Alcor, and a co-founder of the Nanofactory Collaboration. He chaired the Fourth and Fifth Foresight Conferences on Nanotechnology. He was co-recipient of: the Feynman Prize for Nanotechnology for theory, the ACM's Kanellakis Award for Theory and Practice, the IEEE Kobayashi Award, the RSA Award in Mathematics, the IEEE Hamming Award; a Fellow of the IACR, a Fellow of the Computer History Museum, and a National Inventor's Hall of Fame Inductee. Dr. Merkle has fourteen patents, has published extensively and has given hundreds of talks. His home page is at www.merkle.com.

After the Roy Halladay no-hitter yesterday, I was reminded how much I love baseball, no matter the team. And what Halladay has done this year is just so, incredibly awesome. I don't know of another word to describe it. But it also got me thinking, How does one become a fan of a certain team? Why do I enjoy watching this team more than that team? I know some kids grow up with parents who are fans and get it from them, but it wasn't that way for me. My parents weren't into baseball at all. I fell in love with baseball after spending a lot, a lot of time at Little League games and then AT&T Park and Renel captured my heart. I started listening on the radio a little. A lot. Every day. (That was the progression.) I think in the end it was Jon Miller, Dave Flemming, Kruk and Kuip who made me the fan th
at I am today. And it was the overall vibe of the Giants that made me love them. And Barry Zito. Kidding, sort of.
Why aren't there pictures anywhere of all four of them together? Photo op, coming right up.
But my other allegiances may seem a little random. Rangers, for instance? (Who, by the way, I called to win the World Series months ago and was made fun of. Let's wait and see.) It was their name, in that case. I am a huge Lord of the Rings fan (you may have known that) and any other LOTRites will know that Aragorn is a ranger, from the North. So the Texas Rangers always make me think of a tall, dark king of Men. Then Bengie got traded and I started following CJ Wilson on Twitter and… the rest is history.
My two favorite Rangers
The Brewers. I'd like to pretend it had nothing to do with their 2007 ROY left-fielder (hint: his initials are R and B) but it kind of does. It also because I've always been interested in losing teams. It's a mixture of interest and just feeling sorry for them and the stares that you get while rooting for the Brewers in San Francisco are pretty priceless. That's also why I like the Pirates, a litte bit. In addition, they have Joe Martinez (well, their AAA affiliate has him, actually), who I am a big fan of which is another reason to root for the Steel City.
Joe Martinez. I miss him.
And the A's… it was their stadium. I may be the first person to say this about The Coliseum but I love it. (Do I get in the Diamond Girl Record Book, if I am the first?)
It's quirky, it's unique and it fits them. That's not an insult, Athletics. (By the way, least subtle name ever?) If they feel they need a new stadium, though, I hope they stay in Oakland. They fit here. The Las Vegas Athletics? Not good. I could think of a few names, though, if they do move to Las Vegas. New blog post, coming right up? Perhaps.
So. Question time. Raise your hand before you answer, please. How did you become a fan of "your team"? If it has to do with one left fielder, that's okay. You're in good company.

Having 3 sons;
2- bi-polar passive-agressive never employed slacker
3- honor roll athlete of high morals
Is it nature or nurture?
Is it us (parents, still married)?
How come the kid we gave the least parenting to (the first two pretty much burnt us out) turned out so good?
Reading this story makes me realise that is a question for the ages that I will take to my grave.

Dear Addictlab members, you have been with me for the last 17 years. I was proud to be able to publish your great creative talent, exhibit you in Milan, New York, Tokyo, or Johannesburg, invite you to brainstorm sessions in Belgium, Geneva or New Zealand and generate out of the box ideas on so many subjects.
One day, I should write down the stories of all the amazing people I ran into. You were more than 4500 people on the database, having uploaded over 10.000 concepts, published in over 30 books or magazines, and worked on about 200 projects. Our first Addictlab products are being produced as we speak.
What if we could share that knowledge and experience of collaboration, lab culture and cocreation? What if other organisations, companies, governments could use similar tools to create a community, profile its members, look at external resources and invite all of them to cocreate and inovate?
So I looked at Addictlab as a whole, from the communities we gathered, the Open Labs we organised, the brainstorm tools we have created through the years. And I distilled a "software" concept that should allow third parties to do the same.
Hence I'm proud to present you
YourOwnLab: a multiplatform "software" concept, delivering a lab culture methodology and diverse tools for organizations and companies that are looking for innovation, building communities and continuosly thinking out of the box.
After months (or I believe it's been over two years, to be honest) you can register on the YourOwnLab app (soon on the app store) and profile and present yourself. You can link yourself to physical locations if you wish to -you'd want to read about the Creative Ring - and select the creative disciplines you master as a professional or you're interested in since it's your personnal passion. You'll be able to join 'labs' : generic research labs on diverse topics, or confidential labs for
companies. And be rewarded for your ideas in the process. You'll be able to set up your own lab with a cost depending on the resources, duration and YourOwnLab involvment.
And Addictlab? Everyone registering on YourOwnLab can still choose to be part of the Addictlab 'cloud' community, where we keep working on our own generic researchs, publications and exhibitions, even more aiming towards sustainable change.
If you like to join me in this new exciting project, please download the YourOwnLab app from the app store, upload your work, and join our labs!
At the Creativity World Forum, YourOwnLab was asked to set up its offices and apply its lab methodology to work on a number of challenges given by the Forum's audience. These 'labs' ranged from thinking about the future of cinema, helping a number of entrepreneurs with their business plan or innovation funnel, and conceptualise ideas using state of the art technology by university spinoffs in the Nano4Health project. All labs are in the process of receiving a lab paper stating all the ideas, thoughts, inspiration generated by the YOLA team and people from the CWF audience who participated in dedicated brain storm sessions.
The Creative Ring (www.creativering.eu) is a European project to link physical locations - the so called creative hubs - and create a growing creative community
Managers of the hubs of Barcelona, Brussels, Trento, aswell as new hub applicants can start trying out their local lab now.
You know you should innovate, yet do not have the resources?
You believe a lab culture is of utmost importance for your organisation but you have no clue?
Fill in the lab briefing document and we'll get back to you in view of
methodology, community, deliverables and the necessary budget you'd need to invest.
And it's labs for all: prices range from 500€ to, well, more.

Great letter, well stated and so, so true!
I must applaud Merkley, Weiden, and our President Obama for continuing to fix the shambles our last administration left our country.
Second, Waste Management considers us exploitable bumpkins.
If you mention Jesus, I'm willing to bet the NR will print it. Depends on how you present and word your discussion. Expressing anger concerning local, state and federal government, again I'll bet, will depend on how you word your discussion again. I for one, am not at all satisfied with the way persons in our government who are of the Republican, radical right wing Tea Party ilk behave, and sometimes they really get me angry. But we are a two party run government so they get to have their say too. They still makes me angry a lot of times. [I don't like enlarging our landfill either. :( ]
I do not like the way our government has intruded into our lives by taking away, to a certain degree, some of our privacy. I believe we can work on that and make some changes, and even now it appears they might be working on it in high government places.
If someone calls your speech, hate speech, consider what you have said. Was it? Why did someone consider it hateful? Well, free speech means someone can call what you say hate speech. If you believe it was not, well find someone else to talk with.
America as I knew it in 1943 slipped away. So too has the America I knew in 1953. Same is true of 1968 and many following years. Those times were both good and bad and we made it through them.
We live, learn and most importantly, we grow/change. Sometimes for good, others not so good. Continue to write Beverly, but not everyone will always agree and line up with you. We exchange ideas in this column "Letters to the Editor."

Today wasn't a good day in Giants news. Wilson is behind in oblique recovery, Ross is hurt and Cain had an, ahem, tough outing. People are calling this the Dog Days of spring and that's slightly comforting. Nobody does well in August. Deep breathes. Deep breathes.
I read yesterday about Selig's impending (after the 2012 season) retirement. I think I had heard about it before, but him talking about post commissioner career plans kind of made it sink in for me. I mean, firstly, how can you follow up a job like the one he has right now? And secondly…. teacher of sports in modern society (since when is that even a subject) at UW? Really? I have some better ideas.

'Cause they probably could use one, what with the Brewer after Brewer going down from mysterious or not so mysterious ailments. And he seems to love everything about the Brewers, so…
Writer of Nasty Books
It's a favorite occupation of people after they retire. Selig could to it too. I bet it would be a best-seller. Name ideas:
*The Selig Files
*The Brewer Years
*50(110) Days of Bud
*The Lord of the Leagues
*The Lord of the Fly Balls
Wouldn't that be a great publicity stunt? If he retired from being commissioner and became a left-fielder or something?
There seems to be a lot of doubt about him actually retiring. Deservedly. So I figured that should be on the list as a possibility. If he does stick around, we might end up with apocalyptic events like expanded playoffs or instant replay. And it would be 2012, after all. I vote for him retiring.
Any other career ideas, people?

I've never been a big potato chip fan, but I do enjoy this crispy snack once in a while. Lately, I've been getting into veggie chips - there are so many interesting flavors like Terra Exotic Vegetable Chips and Danielle Spicy Carrot Crispy Veggie Chips. It's important to read labels, though, because some veggie chips pack as many calories and fat as regular potato chips. As Consumer Reports put in, sometimes veggie chips are no more than potato or corn flour and a little veggie powder or puree, offering no more fiber or vitamins than regular potato chips.
Not so with Crispy Delites, which are 100% natural veggie chips. These chips are baked not fried and the company boasts that they pack a pound of fresh veggies in each bag. A pound of veggies?? At only $1.39 per bag, I picked up the Mixed Veggies flavor to snack on. There are 6 vegetables in each bag. The ingredients are: Carrot, stringbean, apple, taro, celery, red onion, pumpkin, canola oil, sea salt.
Oh they are so delicious. The carrot and sweet potato chips were my favorites, as they were thick, crunchy, and the most chip-like. The string bean and celery were a bit strange at first but grew on me. The salt and canola oil add a lot of flavor for minimal nutritional damage.
Each 1.07 ounce serving of Crispy Delites Mixed Veggie Chips (there are 1.3 servings per bag) provides 115 calories, 3.5 grams of fat, 0.5 grams saturated, 120 mg sodium (5% of the daily value), 3 grams of protein, 3 grams of fiber plus 29% of the RDA for vitamin A, 20% vitamin C, 16% vitamin E, 6% calcium, and 9% iron (more details at their website).
Will I be buying these again? You bethca - when I have a craving for a crispy snack, these are what I'll be reaching for.

Results tagged ' Kevin Goldstein '
Leo Durocher, the former major
league manager, was fond of saying that "nice guys finish last." Well, this week's Oakland A's award winners may serve as
Exhibit A and Exhibit B in disproving Durocher's claim.
When Andrew Bailey (right) was named American League Rookie of the
Year Monday
and then we learned Tuesday that Keith Lieppman
had received the Chief Bender Award–baseball's top lifetime achievement award
for player development–the reaction from friends and co-workers was the
same. It was pure joy and
exhilaration. It seemed everyone was genuinely thrilled to hear
the news, which in a way, may have served as the greatest tribute of all for both
For Bailey, we were flooded
with phone calls and emails from people he had touched on his path to the big
leagues. Shawn Touney, the media relations director at Single-A Kane
County, sent me a glowing note saying everyone associated with Andrew's old
team was thrilled for him. Even his old
coach and sports information director at Wagner
College (Staten Island, NY)
could not contain their excitement and felt compelled to contact us. Of course, what's not to like about a pitcher
who, minutes after learning he had won the Rookie of the Year award, is calling
many of his former minor league instructors to thank them for helping him win the award?
And then there's Lieppman (right) –he
shares the same nickname ("The Lip") as Durocher–who may even be a nicer guy
than Bailey if that's possible. I just
got a phone call from Monte Moore, the former legendary
A's broadcaster. He wanted to get
Keith's email address so he could drop him a congratulatory note.
Monte, now semi-retired and
living in Porterville, shared one rather
incredible story about Lieppman that dates back to his Little League days in Kansas City. "This is even before I started broadcasting Kansas City A's games,"
said Monte. "I was sports director of a
radio station in town and we held this promotion on the lawn called 'Strikeout
Sam.' We had this framed strike zone for
kids to throw the ball through. We
invited all Little Leaguers in Kansas
City to participate and they all got 10 pitches. And who wins the contest? A youngster named Keith Lieppman!" Little did Monte or anyone else know that the
Lip would eventually begin a long association with the Athletics that will
reach 40 years this spring. Lieppman, a journalism
graduate of the University
of Kansas, began his A's
career as a player in 1971. Later he became
a manager in the Oakland
minor league system before becoming the organization's director of player
development, a position he has held for 19 years.
Suffice it to say, he spans virtually the entire A's
history in Oakland,
making a profound impact on the lives of literally thousands of young men and coaches.
In many ways, he is the Oakland A's! So congratulations, Lip. It's comforting to know that nice guys can
actually finish first!
When you finish in last
place in the American League West, 12 games under .500 and 22 games behind the
division-leading Angels, there's not a lot of wiggle room in explaining how
your team fell short.
I guess the big question is,
which A's team will show up next season–the one that fell out of contention
early or the one that went 38-38 and led the American League in doubles and
stolen bases and ranked third in both batting average and hits after the
All-Star Break? There are credible
baseball people outside our
organization who believe we have a bright future.
In a San
Francisco Chronicle story written by Susan Slusser in September, here's
what some these sources said about Oakland's
fast-maturing roster:
- "It's an impressive haul. It's one of the best collections of
talent in baseball," -Kevin Goldstein, Baseball Prospectus analyst
- "I don't think they're far away from being a
real good club. All those young
pitchers they have are learning on the job and they'll be so much better
for it." -Dan O'Dowd, Colorado
Rockies GM
- "The Oakland
A's have become a big player in the international market. Billy (Beane) is all in. He's never going to be caught in
no-man's land…if these guys stay healthy and continue to develop, you'll
see the fruits of the labor. Fast
forward a year and the picture will look so much better." –Brian
Cashman, New York
Yankees GM
- "(Trevor) Cahill and (Brett) Anderson can fit into the top half of
even a very good rotation. And they
hit on Andrew Bailey." -Keith Law, ESPN.com analyst
Not to belabor the point,
but look at some of these numbers after the All-Star Break:
Player Post-ASB
Rajai Davis, cf .325, 42 RBI,
Ryan Sweeney, rf .319, 20 doubles,
Eric Patterson, lf-2b .302
Kurt Suzuki, c .250, 10 HR, 51 RBI

What do you think???
Dose it need somthing???
Is it tacky???
I dunno.
Cool. love it. Very teenager grunge!!
weeeelllll, first thought was I ain't killed anybody...yet...(came close a couple of days ago when we had to boot the grading guy before he was finished...we now have a yard full of huge dirt piles, but good grief...3 weeks & $4000 should have given us the Taj Mahal.) anyway, can't say that I like the teenage goth/grundge look cuz I ain't a teenager, but from a design standpoint...it's good.
:) thank you!! I am mostly trying to improve my photoshop skills. I want to be able to design all the wonderfully detailed things I see. Then I am sure ill be able to understand all the photo manipulation tuts better. This is the most Fun way to learn. :)
Wow! Strawberry that is costly. I think you would find the guy buried in my back yard. :)
rofl @ both of you!
It is but you never mentioned my mother-in-law!! I'll send her over there she can lay next to the garden man!!

For additional information on the proposed legislation, please see "Immigration bill would mandate E-Verify"
click image to zoomCourtesy United FreshTom Stenzel, (at podium) president on the United Fresh Produce Association, voices support for immigration reform at a press conference organized by the Ag Workforce Coalition. Leaders of other groups that are part of the coalition are (from left) Arturo Rodriguez, president of the United Farm Workers, Nancy Foster, president of the U.S. Apple Association, and Chuck Conner, president of the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives.(CORRECTED) Proposed immigration reform that would phase out H-2A visas and mandate a beefed up version of the E-Verify program should secure a stable and affordable work force for agricultural industries, according to members of the Agricultural Workforce Coalition.
"The work force has been one of our largest challenges," said Tom Stenzel, president of the United Fresh Produce Association, one of 11 groups that founded the coalition.
"We know many of our workers today are undocumented … but they are doing work that many Americans are not willing to do."
Mike Stuart, president of the Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association, another of the coalition's founding entities, said the legislation introduced April 17 by Sen. Charles Schumer and co-sponsored by seven other senators would help resolve the labor issue. He also said the diverse group that formed the coalition shows the desperate need for reform.
"We brought ag producers and labor together in a once in a generation opportunity with the purpose of getting a legal and stable workforce," Stuart said.
A late comer to the coalition was the United Farm Workers, led by president Arturo Rodriguez. The group joined the coalition's effort last week. The coalition represents 69 agriculture-related entities, most of which are in the fresh produce industry.
"This is a historic moment," Rodriguez said April 17 during the coalition's press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
"With this (legislation) farmworkers would no longer have to fear deportation … and the compromises on wage rates that were reached should create stability for farmers and workers alike."
The 844-page bill is called the Border Security, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Modernization Act. It includes sweeping reforms and security measures, but the Ag Workforce Coalition focused its efforts on about 200 pages that specifically address immigrant agricultural workers.

Tyler Flowers' powerful start has been boon for White Sox
BY TONI GINNETTI email@example.com April 3, 2013 8:58PM
White Sox Tyler Flowers hits a home run during the third inning at U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago, Ill., on Wednesday, April 3, 2013. | Andrew A. Nelles~Sun-Times Media
Updated: April 3, 2013 10:18PM
Pitching will be a strength for the White Sox — but the long ball isn't taking a back seat just yet.
With four home runs Wednesday to key the 5-2 victory against the Kansas City Royals, the Sox had their most in one game since April 23, 2010 against the Seattle Mariners.
And with five homers total in two games — two by catcher Tyler Flowers — the team has seen all its runs come from the long ball.
"It's a little like last year but it's only two games in,'' manager Robin Ventura said. "It will even out. You take it wherever you can get it.''
The homers Wednesday came from Flowers, Adam Dunn, Dayan Viciedo and Alexei Ramirez. Flowers' drive leading the third off starter Ervin Santana was significant because it was the second in as many games, but only the third time in his brief career he has homered in back-to-back games.
"I guess it's good, but I'd be just as happy with line drives,'' Flowers said. "You're just looking for quality at-bats and hits.
"The hits and all that stuff, the home runs, that will all take care of itself as long as you focus on every at-bat and get a quality at-bat.''
The Sox had been looking first at Flowers' work behind the plate in handling the pitching staff. But his bat has been enough in the early going to help boost his status as A. J. Pierzynski's replacement.
"What he's been going through as far as spring training and knowing the expectations of where he's at and knowing he's following A.J., it's nice for him to get off to a good start and hit a couple — and get a base hit, too,'' Ventura said.
The Sox had five players hit at least 25 homers last season in Dunn, Pierzynski, Paul Konerko, Alex Rios and Viciedo. It isn't necessarily what the team will look for this season — but it could be a pleasant surprise for the offense if it happens again.
The Sox had another big hit Wednesday in the form of a double in the sixth by Konerko — significant because it was his 2,136th with the Sox, tying him for third place on the franchise all-time list with Frank Thomas.

Updated: December 3, 2012 6:13AM
Southlanders have an opportunity to enjoy world-class performing artists during Lincoln-Way High School District 210's popular Senior Series, Spotlight Series and Children's Series for the 2012-2013 season.
So far, the Spotlight Series presented Ricky Nelson Remembered and the Children's Series presented "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and Other Storybooks." Both shows took place at Lincoln-Way East High School in Frankfort.

The Supreme Court has made the tragic decision to uphold the health-care law, including the individual mandate that will require every American to purchase health insurance whether they want it or need it.
And while it is devastating to lose this battle, I want you to know that we will never, ever stop fighting to defend your personal freedoms, to keep government out of your life and out of your business.
Like you, we worry about what might come out of Washington, D.C. next. We are here for you, always ready to tackle big government and do everything in our power to wrestle it to the ground.
That's why NFIB is already calling on Congress, again, to go back to the drawing board by repealing Obamacare. We are loudly reminding them that Obamacare is a disaster for the small-business community, for the American economy and for freedom itself. You can help.
With the president's health-care law increasingly unpopular and an important election looming, it's not too late to gain full repeal. NFIB's full team of lobbyists will be immediately going to Capitol Hill to let every Member of Congress know that they simply must get serious about repealing Obamacare and lowering the cost of health insurance right now.
Because we went all the way to the Supreme Court, NFIB's profile on Capitol Hill has been raised higher than ever before. We will use this to our advantage by showing Congress what must happen next. Once full repeal is achieved, we have solutions for lowering costs ready for them to follow.
Thank you for being part of NFIB and for all you do to make this country great; we will not stop fighting to defend your personal freedoms and keep the government out of your life and business.

Throughout the long history of baseball in America, the Pirates organization and its employees have formed powerful partnerships for positive change in the black baseball world that stretched from the Pacific to the Caribbean.
Pittsburgh was headquarters for the Negro National League and the only city in the country with two Black Professional Teams, the Homestead Grays and the Pittsburgh Crawfords.
Located first in a small steel town outside of Pittsburgh, the Grays dominated the Eastern baseball scene. They were led by future Hall of Famers Josh Gibson (catcher), "Cool" Papa Bell (outfield), Judy Johnson (third base), Buck Leonard (first base) and Cuban great Martin Dihigo (second base, pitcher, outfielder). Their ace pitcher was "Smokey" Joe Williams, who once struck out 27 batters in a 12-inning game.
During World War II, the Grays played their home games at both Forbes Field (Pittsburgh) and Griffith Stadium (Washington, D.C.) when the white Major League clubs were on the road. The Grays traditionally outdrew their white counterparts, the cellar-dwelling Washington Senators.
Originally, the Pittsburgh Crawfords team was composed of amateurs from the sandlots of the city's Hill district. They won the 1935 Negro National League championship with five future Hall of Famers: James "Cool Papa" Bell, Oscar Charleston, Josh Gibson, Judy Johnson, and the legendary Satchel Paige.
Pittsburgh fielded an array of stars unrivaled in the city's rich sporting past.
The Pirates are committed to continuing to share the legacy of the Negro Leagues with Pirates fans.
In celebrating the history, accomplishments and importance of Negro League Baseball in Pittsburgh, the Pirates have partnered with Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield to dedicate a permanent interactive exhibit in honor and preserve the history of the Negro Leagues and the Grays and Crawfords.
Highmark Legacy Square is located inside the Left Field Gate Entrance at PNC Park and is unlike anything else found in Major League Baseball. The multiple elements of the interactive experience share the inspiring story of these remarkable athletes that helped revolutionize the sports and business world in their own way.

What's the best guidebook for homemade backpacking food? asked Nov 26 '12 at 16:31 Kevin Kelly |
Freezer Bag Cooking by Sarah Kirkconnell is a guide to making your own just-add-water backcountry meals. Most ingredients are available at your supermarket. Compared to pre-packaged freeze-dried meals, these have twice the food and cost half as much. Read carefully, though, some of the recipes serve two people and some serve only one. http://www.trailcooking.com/store/freezer-bag-cooking-trail-food-made-simple The Back-Country Kitchen by Teresa Marrone covers every kind of back-country cooking from dressing up instant grits with cheese and egg to Cajun Venison Tenderloin. She also has a great description of how to cook planked fish. Just reading this book makes me hungry, but the essential part is the chapter on how to dry food at home. With home-dried ingredients, you are ready for these tasty recipes or the simpler ones in Freezer Bag Cooking, your choice. I made a non-dehydrated version of the Lentil-Bulgur Chili at home and the family declared it a keeper. That's high praise. http://www.northerntrailspress.com/bck.htm NOLS Cookery is the best book for working from bulk food. This is a different style than planning each meal, but effective for larger and more frequent expeditions. http://www.nols.edu/books/cookery/ linkanswered Nov 26 '12 at 17:42 wunder I can second the TrailCooking.com link. Freezer bag cooking has totally revolutionized my hiking. I haven't read her book because the recipes themselves aren't that interesting to me, but the idea and her general strategies are wonderful. Make food that you like to eat, dehydrate it, place it in a freezer ziplock back and rehydrate on the trail with boiling water. Once you understand the basic technique the recipes become really easy (assuming you already know how to and like to cook).

One caveat with all of these books: you need to know whether you are a "boil water and pour it over something, wait 10 minutes, then eat" kind of backpacker, or you are a "prepare food by mixing ingredients and using a lot of fuel and time to boil/bake/fry it" kind of backpacker. Both are valid approaches. Both kinds of backpacker are out there, and each approach has its pros and cons, including eating the same thing over and over, eating vegetarian or not, food as fuel vs. food as nourishment, washing more or fewer dishes, carrying and using more or less fuel, and much more. Different backcountry cookbooks will take different approaches. It helps to understand which approach you're after (you may take one approach on some trips and another on other trips) when you go in search of "the best" backcountry cookbook. linkanswered Nov 26 '12 at 20:45 jonesey |
The entrees in Lipsmackin' Backpackin' are yet another style, where you combine and cook ingredients at home, then dehydrate the results. I have the book, but I don't think I've ever cooked anything from it. Contrast this to the freezer bag cooking style, where all ingredients are supermarket-available, mixed at home without cooking, and rehydrated on the trail. In a quart freezer ziplock bag, thus the name. Also contrast to the style in Back-Country Kitchen, which mixes supermarket-available and home-dehydrated ingredients for rehydration or minimal cooking on the trail. "Minimal cooking" means simmering for 15 minutes to cook the lentils, for example. Back-Country Kitchen includes many other styles, like planked fish held down with bacon (yum) or cabin cooking with a can of cherries to season the venison. If you do not want to dehydrate at home, I recommend getting some samplers of dehydrated vegetables from Harmony House (http://www.harmonyhousefoods.com/). That will get you through most of the trail recipes in Back-Country Kitchen. Most recipes only need a tablespoon or a quarter cup, so a one cup bag will last a while. The sampler makes a nice Christmas present, too. NOLS Cookery uses a fixed set of staples with a few extras for a wide variety of meals which are combined, prepped, and cooked on the trail. No at-home prep, just flat-out cooking on the trail. Be prepared to by a Banks Fry-Bake, NOLS loves those things. I'm not familiar with The Complete Trail Food Cookbook, though it appears to use the same approach as Lipsmackin' Backpackin', that is, cook then dehydrate. I have a pretty good collection of camping cookbooks. You want Bradford Angier's opinion on moose muzzle? I got it. It is even tastier than bear. linkanswered Nov 28 '12 at 15:57 wunder |
The Complete Trail Food Cookbook: Over 300 Recipes for Campers, Canoeists and Backpackers by Jennifer MacKenzie, Jay Nutt, and Don Mercer. Nearly all of the recipes for our 10-day backpacking trip last summer came from this book. linkanswered Nov 26 '12 at 18:11 Kelly |
Kelly, can you say a little more about how the techniques in the COmplete Trail Food cookbook varies or improves on the many other ones? linkanswered Nov 26 '12 at 20:23 Kevin Kelly |
I just got suggestions for three other books: Trail Food; Lipsmacking Backpacking; and Backpack Gourmet. Can anyone compare these to the ones already mentioned here? linkanswered Nov 26 '12 at 20:24 Kevin Kelly |
Personally, I am of the "eat as soon as possible" type of backpacker. I don't mind doing prep work before hand, but on the trail I don't like to fuss around. linkanswered Nov 27 '12 at 10:25 Kevin Kelly Freezer bag cooking is your friend then. On the trail all you need to do is boil water, pour it into a bag and wait for the hydration. If you go 100% freezer bag then you can start dramatically reducing your cooking kit as well.

I think a lot of people would want to see a Warhammer 40k LCG. I know I would. I even have my fantasy Core Set (Imperium, Chaos, Eldar, Ork) and expansion (Tyranids vs. Tau) in mind . A Lord of the Rings LCG would also be highly welcome. What properties would you guys like to see?

Anyone remember the Guardians CCG? That would make a lovely LCG and couldn't be too hard for someone to pick up the rights to these days....
Posted 02 January 2010 - 03:35 PM
I'm figuring they'll make a sci-fi LCG next. They've got horror and fantasy already and that's a natural one to do. The rumors are a WH40k which would be a great game. A Twilight Imperium game could be fun.
Even sort of a mystery/cops and robbers kind of game.
Posted 03 January 2010 - 02:21 AM
I think I wouldn't buy a 40k game. First (the small issue) I'm not a big fan of the 40k universe, second I don't see any possibilities for a not-combat based card system and I would like to see something different, like the COC LCG. Since we already have a good combat-based system with WH:I.
I would see more possibilities in the Twilight Imperium universe, for example, for something different.
Posted 03 January 2010 - 03:15 AM
I'd like a sci-fi one, and I'd like it to be ship based. Something based off of the lost fleet series might be doable if they want an exisiting IP (thats not too expensive). In house they do have access to the Warhammer one, and they also have a contract for BFG so those are probables too, but i always felt that even there its wasn't so much about the ships in combat as it was about the mood/people. Lost fleet is all about ship combat (and things like time lag and coordination issues in space).
Posted 03 January 2010 - 03:51 PM
Doctor Who... The last Doctor Who card game made makes me chuckle
Posted 03 January 2010 - 04:01 PM
Twilight Imperium seems like a logical choice. Would be awesome to see more of the universe expanded.
Posted 03 January 2010 - 06:11 PM
Graet prpoerties to make into LCG?
Doctor Who would be pretty cool and should be wacky good fun.
If 40K LCG could be properly supported, it would be a pretty good IP to take advantage of, though it still bears the stigma of Sabertooth failed attempt...
Personally, the one that FFG could do the most justice to would be Dune. The last attempt at making a Dune CCG wasnt a huge success as the game was a trifle bit lame, but great ideas with intrigue.
Dune really needs to be revisted again especially since there is an abundance of new material to work from wich could keep the LCG going for quite some time with profits if it turned out to be popular enough.
Dune, just like Lovecrafts stories, has a pretty huge following. If FFG makes it, they will come.
Posted 03 January 2010 - 09:22 PM
Horus Heresy.
... or Space Fleet Gothic.
Posted 03 January 2010 - 11:32 PM
Battlestar Galactica has the potential to be an awesome LCG if it kept the Silon rules from the board game somehow. A co-operative LCG as opposed to a straight up 1v1. Kinda like V:TES
Marvel/DC since UDE canned Vs
Indy Comic characters

I, for one, would like to see and original IP for the new LCG.
Don't get me wrong, LotR and WH40K are awesome, but FFG has the option to create a new world and franchise (preferably sci-fi).

Dune would be great, but the chance are around 0,0 %. FFG didn't got the licenses for the DUNE-background to use it for their coming DUNE Reprint, why should they get it for a LCG ?
Posted 05 January 2010 - 07:03 AM
Don't make an other "medieval-fantasy-heroic" LCG.
Warhammer and AGOT is awesome, and I think that is not a good idea to add an other "fantasy" game. LOTR by decipher stay in heart's player like a famous game, but a big deception. Don't !!!! :'(
But, a SF game, yeees!
I don't like very well SF, but you must "mr Edge" have a SF LCG
Wizard has Star Wars but don't use. Decipher has Star Trek (good joke )... W40K LCG or Twilight Imperium are certainly good background to make a perfect FFG LCG SF GAME

Posted 05 January 2010 - 10:10 AM
Twilight Imperium could be interesting, I don't know much about it or its setting though. But something new and sci fi would be good. 40K has the potential to be good but the original CCG by Sabretooth sucked so it would have to be something new to be good.
My vote is for Twilight Imperium.

Heres another reason why they should do as much with Dune IP as possible. Free advertising.
Wheres the free advertising you may ask? Simple. New movie.
FFG really should get the old avalon hill rights to that boardgame from days gone by as well, but thats a topic for a different thread.

I, for one, would like to see and original IP for the new LCG.
Don't get me wrong, LotR and WH40K are awesome, but FFG has the option to create a new world and franchise (preferably sci-fi).
There's nothing quite fresh like playing a Original IP cardgame especially in a genre like LCGs. The Shadowar series from UFS was pretty cool and I'd like that to comeback as a LCG since it's already FFG's IP. Why make something so unique and let it go to waste?

I joked about it earlier on the LCG announcement that popped up about the chapter packs, but I'm serious now: a Lord of the Rings/Middle-earth inspired LCG or a Starcraft one. However I wonder if Upper Deck is already sitting on that, waiting to bring that one out since they currently have WoW. However Starcraft is not nearly big enough imo for a TCG. LCG on the other hand could work. Not much of a 40K fan, but I would be willing to give it a shot if they released it. I do like the art style for Rogue Trader.
