I can be contacted here on the blog. We were thinking of starting operation Zverograd, but we are we are open to whatever the collective wants to do. We usually game game with 250 points.

Posted 27 June 2012 - 03:45 AM
We still on for this friday? more standerd -ish games. 300 pts? much closer to 530 then 630 this time.
Posted 27 June 2012 - 04:57 PM
New scenario is: Having penetrated the outer defenses of the Axis, the Allies seek to press hope their advantage. Their next objective is to seize the V.K. Ore refinery.
The point limit is 250 per player. The objective is the side that controls the most refinery buildings wins the game. There are a total of three buildings, and the game lasts eight turns.
The board will be gridded, and I would like to try to introduce the trees as new terrain.
Also, I have railroad tracks and an old ore car I had lying around. I painted the ore to match the V.K.
The ore car will move from the Allied to the Axis deployment zone. It can be used as mobile cover, or if it is destroyed becomes permanent cover.
For more detail see us at the Game Matrix in Tacoma Washington. Friday 29, June.
Posted 27 June 2012 - 06:14 PM
could be interesting..
but with the posibility of a newer player.. we might want/need to keep it simple … but whos knows..maybe we do both…
Posted 27 June 2012 - 06:16 PM

Posted 28 June 2012 - 05:12 PM
Phil and I can play test it. If it is something you or the others are interrested in you can play this week or next. We could adjust it to add players you can let me know when you see it. As always we are open for anything. The new player should take presidence though. Don't forget the sub, I'm running low on stuff to paint and it sounds like a fun prodject.
Posted 05 July 2012 - 07:08 PM

No sorry, Phil and I played the the Startreck Game on the 6th. It was prity good but the Romulans aren wimps.
The next two weeks I have family coming from overseas. So I will be out of the net for the next two weeks as well.
Posted 14 July 2012 - 07:21 PM
We have a League in Portland and have made a few trips to events in Olympia. I could talk to my fellow players and maybe figure out a Friday that we could make it up and join in the fun. Maybe we could even get some of the Olympia players to join us as well. If you have any contact info you can email it to email@example.com. You can also check out our League on our blog. We just wrapped up our Operation Blue Thunder v2.0 League.
Posted 15 July 2012 - 05:22 PM
I have played at both of the Olympia tournaments I am sure we have met or even played against each other.
SGT-G plays down in Olympia allot and he was talking about getting together with you guys a couple of weeks ago. I think a Saturday would be better than a Friday though.
I will send SSG-G an e-mail. Hopefully we can bang out the details. If you don't mind communicating via this blog that would probably work best. I do follow your blog though wish I was that talented great site.
Posted 16 July 2012 - 07:18 PM
I think this would be amazing..what ever day we chose.. we need to check with what ever establishment we hope to play at..and make sure they arnt doing a poki-fest on said date.

I would assume so, the person who runs the blog site is usually really good about responding, so I am surprised he has not written you back.
This site works also, I am just not on the forums as much as I used to be.

Protect your patio with waterproof patio furniture covers and other outdoor furniture covers
Outdoor furniture covers can extend the life of your outdoor furniture. Whether you're covering your outdoor dining set, casual furniture or decorative accents, you'll enjoy dry furniture after a big storm with protective furniture covers. Look for covers that are specifically designed for your patio furniture. At Sears, you can find fitted covers that will help protect your outdoor furniture and keep your patio sets looking showroom-new.
When it comes to protecting your outdoor dining sets, you want to have a waterproof patio furniture cover that will keep cushioned chairs and tables safe from rain, sun and dust when they're not in use. Some covers will wrap around your entire dining set, and others are designed to wrap snugly around individual pieces of furniture. You can even find stackable chair covers to minimize the amount of space that your covered furniture uses. For casual seating with cushions and pillows, you'll want to keep them snugly protected with a fitted cover.
In addition to your outdoor furniture, you'll want to keep other outdoor decor and equipment protected from the elements. Cover umbrellas, air conditioning units, patio heaters and more. When the rain starts falling, you won't have to worry about your outdoor sanctuary when everything is shielded from the storm. You can even match the covers of your decorative items to your patio furniture covers and dining set covers.
Don't let inclement weather harm your outdoor patio furniture. Use covers for outdoor furniture to protect your outdoor decor from the elements. Choose from several different protective covers from Sears, and enjoy outdoor living all season long.

: very harsh control or authority
Full Definition of FASCISM
Examples of FASCISM
- the rise of Fascism in Europe before World War II
- From the first hours of Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union, the propagandists on both sides of the conflict portrayed the struggle in stark, Manichaean language. The totalitarian nature of both regimes made this inevitable. On one side stood Hitler, fascism, the myth of German supremacy; on the other side stood Stalin, communism, and the international proletarian revolution. —Anne Applebaum, New York Review of Books, 25 Oct. 2007
- Consider what happened during the crisis of global fascism. At first, even the truth about Hitler was inconvenient. Many in the west hoped the danger would simply go away. —Al Gore, An Inconvenient Truth, 2006
- He collected stories about groups similar to his—Aryans, other Nazis, the KKK. Lately, he'd been flagging many stories from Germany and Eastern Europe, and was quite thrilled with the rise of fascism there. —John Grisham, The Chamber, 1995

Origin of FASCISM
Other Government and Politics Terms
Rhymes with FASCISM
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Philosophy of government that stresses the primacy and glory of the state, unquestioning obedience to its leader, subordination of the individual will to the state's authority, and harsh suppression of dissent. Martial virtues are celebrated, while liberal and democratic values are disparaged. Fascism arose during the 1920s and '30s partly out of fear of the rising power of the working classes; it differed from contemporary communism (as practiced under Joseph Stalin) by its protection of business and landowning elites and its preservation of class systems. The leaders of the fascist governments of Italy (1922–43), Germany (1933–45), and Spain (1939–75)Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler, and Francisco Francowere portrayed to their publics as embodiments of the strength and resolve necessary to rescue their nations from political and economic chaos. Japanese fascists (1936–45) fostered belief in the uniqueness of the Japanese spirit and taught subordination to the state and personal sacrifice. See also totalitarianism; neofascism.

- Nice car, and I know you must be proud of it. Just wanted to say a couple of words about your challenge ot my Mustang. Perhaps I'm old fashioned, but I prefer challenges of like cars from like eras, or years. The new ones are so different in style, engineering, metalurgy, electronics that the older cars cannot find common ground for competition. Again, I appreciate your interest, but must decline on, basically, the grounds of nostalgia. Have a great day - as a matter of fact, Have a Great Life!!!!

Game 5 Recap – Grrrrrrrrr! Devils 1 – Bruins 2 (F/SO)
Well the Devils went into Boston tonight looking to rebound from the overtime loss to Montreal on Sunday and came up short again, losing in a shootout by a score of 2-1. However, in a shortened season, the Devils still collected 2 points from a possible 4 on this mini road trip which is not too shabby.
The game was a bit slow to begin to say the least. There was a whole lot of nothing for the first half of the period save for a fight between Krys Barch and Shawn Thornton and a solid save by Tuuka Rask on Jacob Josefson. There was one great chance for Boston as well as Brad Marchand took advantage of a bad rookie mistake by Stefan Matteau before Johan Hedberg stoned him cold. The game remained scoreless after 1.
The 2nd period was more of the same until the the Devils got a power play. It was on this man-advantage that the Devils were able to break the Bruins' 24-for-24 streak to open the season on the PK. David Clarkson – playing as well as anyone to start this season – tipped a Marek Zidlicky shot past the Boston goalie to give the Devils a 1-0 lead. Clarkson was all over that power play and got rewarded for it. The Devils had 2 more PPs but could not convert after decent possession on each of them. Matt Anderson, the newly called up forward, almost got his first NHL goal after a tipped shot dribbled past Rask. After 2 the score was 1-0 Devils.
The Bruins came out furiously in the third and eventually got a power play with 9 minutes remaining. Johan Hedberg stood up to the challenge with 2 outstanding saves on the man-advantage. Unfortunately, Nathan Horton finally broke through with 4:05 left in the 3rd on a shot which fooled Hedberg as Horton didn't get all of the shot and the puck went between Moose's legs to tie the game. The Devils held on to earn at least a point as the two teams headed to overtime.
There were quite a few good chances in OT as the Bruins had a close call and Henrik Tallinder had a good chance in the slot but there was nothing doing and the game went to a shootout. It was there that a very odd moment happened. Tyler Seguin scored for Boston but a Bruins fan threw something on the ice and they had to redo the attempt and then scored again. Ilya Kovalchuk then came down and does what he does best and scored to tie it up after 1 round. Then both goalies traded saves for 4 rounds to keep the shootout tied. Brad Marchand was able to squeak one by Moose to give Boston the lead. Marek Zidlicky was denied by Rask to give the Bruins the extra point.
The Devils played a much better game than they did in Montreal. The Bruins are one of the top 3 teams in the East and the Devils withstood a barrage by them and almost held on for the win. They were much more disciplined and were calm in their own zone defensively. It wasn't perfect but they are showing signs of cohesion. We'll see if it all comes together Thursday as the surging Islanders come to The Rock.
Three Stars of the game as chosen by ME!
3. David Clarkson – Continued his strong start with a great tip in goal and showed again his outstanding puck possession skills.
2. Johan Hedberg – The Moose kept the Devils ahead as much as he could and didn't break as the Bruins blitzkreiged the Devils for most of the 3rd period.
1. Tuuka Rask – He won the game with his own strong play in goal.

Welcome to the Frontpage
Summerwind Mansion Official Site
Stories of ghosts and spirits abound at the abandoned estate nestled deep in the northwoods! The infamous Summerwind Mansion , (aka Lamont Mansion) has long been the source of discussion and haunting tales.
Windows that wouldn't stay closed, gunshots fired at ghosts, misty forms floating through doorways, vanishing corpses and rooms that seemed to change size at will were just a few of the paranormal events surrounding the once beautiful summer home!
Nature is slowly taking over the remains of a magnificent stone terrace and two 40 foot tall chimneys as Summerwind becomes another Wisconsin legend. Though separating truth from fantasy is extremely difficult at this late a date, the fact that Summerwind was strange and unusual goes undisputed.
So I have decided to prepare this site to help dispel some of the rumors and hearsay that have been circulated through the years by those that reveled in spreading undeserved hysteria. Read the true story in The Carver Effect !

Simply put the 2ed rules worked fine imho! I was sceptical at first about 2ed release tbh but I did see the need to improve the skill system and magic and so i bought£ into the idea. Thou i did notice a delcine (simplified) in setting detail (ie history, and backgrounds) although this didn't effect me overly because i had 1ed books so knew the lore of the land etc. Also that you needed a few books to have what you had with 1ed. However it was by and large good stuff and i had many good roleplay sessions and still do.
To refer to a few of the main mission statements of the new 3ed.
The first main one being that it encourages more roleplaying
- That being throu card aids that display all information so you don't have to look through rule books, so there is more time to role play.
Surely this is what a character sheet is for?
- Through fancy dice of different colours because you tell a story of a single attack.
Sure they made less stats and skills so less stuff there but then made the dice more complicated ie more time to work = less roleplay surely (no math degree to work out the system ofc, but like the fact that i only need to role three dice max), but my main gripe with this is that the dice some how tell a story. I mean come on a GM can make that up and it sounds like he/she still has to but have some tacky dice to guide them. Surely a player character can roleplay in a recklass manor with out dice? Besides one can already do an all out attack in so far as mechanics are concerned, for example.
The second being that they have got rid of the boring carrers because they (FFG or maybe just the PR guy in the vid) are not intrested in their mundane lives.
Well what about npc's creation and the depth it offers in flavour (thus better roleplay attmoshere). Not to metion that some of my players have started lifes in mundane carreers before adventuring. Tbh this smacks of WarhammerOnline career system buy the looks of it (which is a game i love too, but i don't see it as a roleplaying game in the same sence as book roleplaying).
In summery I think the roleplaying content is only going to be as good as its roleplayers and GM. Ofc this 3ed is there fore more apealing to those who have not played it before as it will no doubt be even more simplified that before for a wider appeal. So in my mind thats a bad thing because the setting to me is what makes warhammer so great.
Perhaps in an ideal world they would continue the 2ed along with the 3ed (for those who like it). That way they could keep the old customer base along with the new, rather than replacing one with the other. How ever i guess thats not going to happen so i will just have to make up the rest for my self and save my money for Dark Heresy until that gets the same death blow (in the eyes of most die hard fans like my self). Ofc this is not meant as a slight to those who like the new game and is purely what i like or do not like.

Cloud Computing
Nov 18, 2011 11:45 AM, By Mark Mayfield
Is it ready for AV control?
The definition of cloud computing has, until recently, been as translucent as the gaseous cluster of water vapor molecules after which it is named.
To help add shape to the issue, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) released a draft document in January 2011, titled "The NIST Definition of Cloud Computing." It begins with the definition: "Cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction."
As part of its definition, NIST also defines three service models, including Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Saas is the capability to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure, where the applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (e.g., web-based email). Platform as a Service (PaaS) refers to the capability to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) allows the capability to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).
In the IT world, cloud computing is here today, and most experts predict significant expansion. Gartner is projecting rapid growth in public cloud services worldwide, with revenue growing from $68.3 billion in 2010 to $102.1 billion by 2012 and $180 billion by 2015. Somewhat more conservatively, IDC predicts that public cloud IT spending will grow from $21.5 billion in 2010 to $72.9 billion in 2015. While Gartner focuses on revenue, which allows for the inclusion of new business model growth, both firms expect the cloud market to grow at more than five times the rate of traditional IT products.
But is AV going to the cloud? It depends on whom you ask. Many would say that it already has. Any time you access music, video or other AV content that's hosted on a server that you don't own, that's cloud AV access. Cloud AV is already well entrenched in the consumer AV world. Do you use Netflix? That's cloud-based AV access. So is YouTube.
Apple's iCloud allows users to stream images and other types of media to other devices, primarily manufactured from Apple. And Amazon's Cloud Player is all about storage and streaming of music—all you do is "reserve" as much cloud storage as you need.
But what about cloud-based AV control for out-of-the-home applications? If the current trend of consumer technologies migrating to commercial applications continues, it's probably already on its way.
"Today, I can control devices in my home today over the cloud, using my iPhone or iPad," says Dave Sobel, CEO of Fairfax, Va.-based Evolve Technologies. "As commercial AV moves closer to the IT model, it's only logical that this type of control will extend to AV systems in the workplace." Sobel cites figures from CompTIA, which projects that 20 percent of businesses will have fully cloud-based IT services by the end of 2012. It's no big stretch to envision that commercial AV devices and systems—already considered part of the IT infrastructure—aren't far behind.
Not everyone agrees with Sobel's assessment, including Steve Greenblatt, president of independent programming firm Control Concepts. "At this point, I think it's pretty far off," he says. "A lot of people had been thinking, for years, that you wouldn't need anything more than a computer in a room to control an AV system, but AV systems have really gotten a lot more complicated than that. I think cloud-based control would be some time in the future."
One of the problems with the idea of cloud-based AV control is that, for many AV devices, you still need a dedicated control processor to perform basic functions, like projector on/off, audio system volume levels, or camera pan/tilt/zoom. Serial commands delivered by IR or RS-232 and simple contact closure signal is still the most common way to control many AV products. But most control processors today are software-configurable, so it's logical that as these devices become more like IT appliances, the software that drives control functions could be accessed via the cloud.
AMX has announced a cloud-based systems configuration tool that allows AV technicians or IT professionals to easily configure an AMX system by using a step-by-step, wizard-based approach. Rapid Project Maker (RPM) is stored on AMX servers, so users never have to worry about "who owns the code" or what happens if an on-premise system should fail. It's always there, "in the cloud"; no additional software is required. Once configuration of an AV control system is complete, the code is downloaded to the on-premise controller, and it's ready to go. But just as configuration moves to the cloud, is it feasible that the control processor itself could disappear as an on-premises piece of hardware, and become a cloud-based IaaS function?

A drummer of a bagpipe band marches down South Western Avenue during the South Side Irish St. Patrick's Day Parade in Chicago, IL, on Sunday, March 10, 2013. | Ting Shen~Sun-Times Media
Updated: April 12, 2013 6:27AM
The South Side Irish reigned on Sunday.
Book-ended by showers, the South Side Irish St. Patrick's Day Parade went off with just a few sprinkles and without any major problems, unless you count the Plumbers Union Local 130 van and float that had to be pushed down the route.
Unlike past years marred with unruly behavior, Sunday's rendition was like last year's, free of trouble. Or, as one man said, "more subdued."
Chicago police said there had been no arrests made moments after the two-hour parade ended about 2 p.m.
Crowds, according to police and those all-knowing bouncers at bars on the west side of Western Avenue, were down from last year. They figured soggy weather and a zero tolerance for alcohol, teamed with heavier fines, probably made the parade more family-friendly.
Chicago police said an estimated 150,000 flocked to the 19th Ward. Some went to the parade. Some to family parties or bars. Some to all three.
More than 90 entries paraded down Western, from 103rd to 115th Street. Most featured something colored Kelly green. Some played Irish music. All were greeted warmly.
Sunday morning's haze and drizzle did little to dampen spirits. Bagpipe bands warmed up in the parking lots before the parade began, and children settled into fire-engine floats clad in shamrocks and bright-green wigs.
Sounds of bagpipes soon filled the streets. They were followed by trolleys and trains, Irish dancers and wolfhounds, adults pulling children in wagons and good old-fashioned marching bands. American, Irish and Chicago flags waved in the wind. People in the crowd sipped Green River soda, and kids hung over barriers on both sides of Western hoping for candy to fly their way.
Irish was the day's theme. Just ask the folks at WXRT (93.1 FM). Their float had disc jockeys such as morning man Lin Brehmer dancing to the tunes of "Domino" by Irish musician Van Morrison.
"To me, this is a little bit like being in Ireland," said parade committee co-chairman Kevin Coakley when asked about the weather.
But the rain ended as a ribbon-cutting kicked off the march. Parade organizers chose the area's first-responders — police, firefighters and medics — as this year's grand marshals, along with the families of fallen Chicago police officer Michael Flisk, firefighter Walter Patmon Jr. and fire Capt. Herbie Johnson.
Peggy Hassan, of Evergreen Park, got choked up when she saw police officers and firefighters pause and salute at the park named for firefighters Patrick King and Anthony Lockhart, who died fighting a fire at a tire store in 1998.
"We go way back with the fire department. My uncle was a firefighter. My son, Christopher, is a Chicago firefighter and my father, Bernard Waters, was," said Hassan, who wore light-up shamrock glasses and a 2012 parade hoodie.
"It's nice to be appreciated. I knew Herbie Johnson. He was fantastic, everybody's friend," Christopher said.
Here are more highlights from a wet and festive day in Chicago's 19th Ward:
Stayin' dry
With rain falling before the parade, the Berchman family found perhaps the perfect vantage point. They sat inside a covered bus stop shelter south of 105th Street. They were dry, and 4-year-old Scarlett couldn't wait to hear bagpipes.
Keith and MaryCarol Berchman, former South Siders, grew up attending the parade and now bring Scarlett, sister Ellsie, 2, and brother Hurley, 9 months.
"We went to breakfast at Beverly Bakery and have been here about an hour," said MaryCarol, 32, who is expecting their fourth child.
Breakfast? Corned beef hash, of course.
Family tradition
Dressed in a bright green Blackhawks jersey featuring Bobby Hull's No. 9, and a green derby, Shawn Smith, 32, was hard to miss as he stood beside wife Kellen Smith, 32, in her kelly green cowboy hat.
Shawn grew up in Beverly. The parade, which dates back to 1979, is a family tradition,
"My mom and the aunts would stay home and cook. The dads would bring the kids to the parade. When we have children, I want to bring them here," Shawn said.
Like many, Kellen is happy the parade has returned after not being held in 2010 or 2011.
"I grew up by Midway Airport, and my family would make a pilgrimage here every year," she said.
No complaints
About three hours after the parade, Joe Connelly, co-chairman of the parade committee, said he had heard no complaints.
"It was a great day and we had a great parade. Everybody enjoyed it, those watching and those participating," he said.
Asked about the rain that stopped in time for the parade, he said, "We must be doing something right."
"The rain didn't dampen anyone's spirits. I'm at a house party now, and everyone is having fun. In terms of the neighborhood, people came out and supported us the way that we asked," Connelly said.
Irish for a day
Steve Paterson, 30, of Willow Springs, watched the parade through his green-tinted shamrock-shaped glasses he found at a re-sale store for $1.
"I enjoy pretending to be Irish for an afternoon," Paterson said.
Ditto his friend, Dale Howard, 23, of Lyons.
"I pretend to be Irish and just have a good time," Howard said.
They stood outside Cork & Kerry, trying to figure out if they wanted to each pay a $15 cover charge to go inside.
Paterson wondered if that was because, unlike in previous years, there no longer were busloads of thirsty parade-goers coming in from far flung towns and neighborhoods.
Next door, no cover charge was charged at Keegan's Pub.
"Thanks for the information," Paterson told a reporter.
Emerald Isle Mile
Morgan Riordan, 11, of Mount Greenwood, wore a green tutu and green derby as part of her ensemble to run in the inaugural Emerald Isle Mile sponsored by Running Excels. Morgan said the cool weather was "perfect to run." Her goal was run a mile in less than 7 minutes. She finished in 8:33. Approximately 300 runners participated. The men's winner was Steven Bugarin at 4:32. Ashley Ehlers led the women at 6:02. Runners and passers-by were treated to free mint chocolate ice cream after the race.
First-time fans
It was the first South Side Irish parade for Sister Anna Kim, a Little Company of Mary nun from Seoul, South Korea. Kim lives with a group of nuns in Evergreen Park and went to the festivities with Sue Coyle, who lives near 109th Street and Western.
Coyle said the parade was calmer for the second year in a row. She did not miss the drunken debauchery of earlier years.
"It was terribly crazy," Coyle said. "It was a Mardi Gras scene. If people just behave themselves, we're all for the parade."
Beverly resident Achele Norwood, 30, was thrilled to finally convince her sister, Amber Lang, 34, of Minooka, to attend the parade.
In previous years, Lang was busy with prior commitments. After having a blast Sunday, she vowed to return.
Norwood liked how the parade "is more family-friendly now," noting that her three sons, ages 12, 11 and 6, loaded up on candy.
Have RV, will travel
Pat Winters, of Worth, has rented an RV for the parade for the past 15 years. He got permission to park it in a parking lot near 107th and Western.
Winters said he expected 75 to 100 people to show up for his parking lot party. In prior years when the weather has been better, he said as many as 300 people have showed up at his RV.
Renting the RV for the day cost $300, but it gives him a place to store food, coats and quickly use the bathroom when the port-a-potty lines get too long.
"Absolutely it's worth it," Winters said. "I'll feed you six or seven beers and you'll see."
Won't go hungry
Neil Byers, who owns Horse Thief Hollow Brew Pub, 10426 S. Western Ave., said he hired six security guards and rented five portable toilets for the parade. He also purchased 400 pounds of pork shoulder and 400 pounds of corned beef to feed parade customers.
The bar also served McGarry's Irish Stout — named after Beverly resident Marty McGarry, a boxing coach who is suffering from a rare genetic disorder.
While the brew pub's business wasn't what he had hoped during the parade, Byers said the week leading up to the parade was good for business.
"I think the weather has something to do with it," Byers said.
Byers also said that a tampered-down parade is something of a Catch-22 because many of the businesses including bars on Western Avenue help finance the parade. The bars need big crowds to make good profits, but the parade itself suffers if the celebration gets out of hand.
"Our business has been stronger," Byers said of parade day sales. "We're not doing that strong today, but all week has been great."
'The true Holy Land'
Before the parade started, a Feast of St. Patrick Mass was held at St. Cajetan Church, which was standing-room only.
During his sermon, the Rev. Frank Kurucz had folks laughing in the pews.
"Looking at this seas of green, I've finally come to the realization that I'm totally outnumbered," he said.
Later he said the day "is totally about tradition and celebrating family, faith heritage," and spoke fondly of the Irish who came to this country and overcame prejudice with hard work and education.
He received a rare in-church ovation after he spoke of being a young priest at St. Alexander's Roman Catholic Church in Palos Heights when an older priest talked of an upcoming trip to the Holy Land.
After Kurucz asked the older priest if he was thrilled that he'd be walking where Jesus walked, the older cleric paused and said, "I'm not going there. I'm going to Ireland, the true Holy Land."

No job? "Create your own" is an increasing mantra among the unemployed. With the national unemployment rate around 8 percent, people who can't find work are becoming entrepreneurs, with 543,000 new ventures being created every month. Last year an astounding 6,516,000 new businesses were launched. Entrepreneurship is clearly the American dream to many.
But let me give you a reality check. Many of you are aware that I launched Today's Chicago Woman (TCW) 30 years ago – with no business plan, no experienced staff in publishing. Just an idea and firm belief that a publication for and about Chicago area women would fill a gap in local publishing. THIS IS NOT A WAY TO BECOME AN ENTREPRENEUR! And here's why: just because you have a passion for something, doesn't mean you're guaranteed instant success. To make your dream a reality requires work and lots of it.
For starters, you need financing – unless you're going to be a 'consultant' – and if you think it's easy to get a bank loan, think again. True, the Small Business Administration, Accion Chicago and other lenders make it sound easy, but read the small print. It's practically impossible, unless you're earning a salary (do you see the catch 22 here?). Then there's the time factor. Luckily, I truly enjoy journalism and all of its aspects. I like to work and don't think of work as work. Plus, to get TCW up and running, I had the emotional support of my husband and we didn't have kids so there were no family distractions. But that brings up the subject of focus.
To get a business venture off the ground is like getting an airplane to fly. Yes, it's moving as it begins its journey, but it's on the ground. To get it air born requires a HUGE amount of effort and that is a commitment that, more often than not, requires sacrifice on the part of a newbie business owner. And it also requires wearing many hats. For example, just because you're a proficient writer doesn't mean your publication is a viable venture. You need to have a working knowledge of accounting, sales; you'd better have strong people skills (more than one employee means office politics), negotiating skills and be able to think on your feat. Throw marketing your business into the mix, along with the effort of getting out there to build your network and you'll soon find that maybe the corporate world wasn't so bad after all.
Obviously, there's much more involved in becoming an entrepreneur; this is just an overview, pointing out the most basic and critical issues that need to be addressed before moving forward with your dream of being your own boss. If you do decide to go ahead, there's another factor that can make it all work and that's plain old luck.

Want to find a show that will tickle your funny bone and make you laugh so hard it could make you burst at the seams? Try improvisational comedy that's getting to be popular all over the clubs and bars. It is guaranteed to make you smile, snicker, giggle, laugh or guffaw like a cow until you cry. Comedy makes us laugh and when we are happy, we release a neurotransmitter called endorphin. This chemical substance is a natural pain reliever released by our body in response to emotional triggers and gives us a sense of well being as well as a natural "high". The action is almost similar to the narcotic effects of morphine except that it is not addictive.
Improvisational comedy is spontaneous and does not have a definite structure or form. Comedians often take the cue from the reaction of the audience or their receptiveness to the idea. It is intended to tell something funny or amusing and is usually uninhibited using a lot of acting technique to inject humor and make light of a situation. It requires a lot of tricks and practice to be able to deliver the punch line at the most precise time by taking the audience in an emotional rollercoaster until it reaches the climax. That is the time you break the tether and they all drop down laughing.
Comedy is medicinal and is highly therapeutic. It can blow away the cobwebs in your mind and uplift your spirit when you are depressed or burdened with problems. Although it has never been solidly established as a special field in curative medicine, the effects of laughter on a person is immeasurable and people can attest that laughter is truly the best medicine. For this reason, comedy bars and stand-up comedy shows are doing brisk business everywhere and health gurus are holding laughter therapy to release the pent up emotions and tickle the ribs of the participants.
Comedy is very entertaining and healthy. It does not hurt anybody to take time out and enjoy a few laughs once in a while. It is very refreshing and people who frequent comedy bars will tell you that it really is amazing how good they feel after having a night out at the comedy bar.
Comedy shows can come in different forms. There are comedies intended for young audiences such as children and young adults during parties and special events such as school programs or campus fair where they hire clowns to perform and do improvisational comedy to entertain the people around. It fosters goodwill and improves socialization among the participants. Successful comedy shows are always a sell-out because people will always look forward to having a great time in a well orchestrated and produced comedy show. Some people even make it a career to work as comedians especially when they have a natural talent to talk and perform before an audience and make people laugh. It is an art that can be learned and practice and there are acting classes that have special lessons on improvisational comedy to teach actors the skills and techniques of doing comedy show.

A Promise in Pieces
10.16.14 |
10.15.10 | | Comments[0]
I woke up early Friday morning with a sense of wonder and anticipation. Grabbing my Bible, I decided to take a walk down the short path to get my first view of the Sea of Galilee. What better place to do my morning devotions? In the quiet, I read Scripture. I feasted. My mind was fed on God's Word, and my eyes feasted on the clear, sparkling water. I imagined a time two thousand years ago when Jesus would have walked these same shores and seen what I was looking at.
Breakfast and we're off for our first full day of sight-seeing. On this day we would start in the Old Testament, travel through the New and end the day at a site from Israel's recent history.
Our first stop was Tel Hazor, an ancient Canaanite city that was destroyed by Joshua in Joshua 11. We learned that archeological excavations have brought to light at least 21 civilations at this location. One built on top of the other. Next stop was Ted Dan. A city that became prominent after the time of Solomon when Israel was divided into two kingdoms. This area was lush with vegetation and we saw several mountain streams that fed into the Sea of Galilee.
After lunch we went further north to Caesarea Philippi (also known in the New Testament as Banias). Doron and Pastor Jeff explained that this city was a pagan city during the time of Christ. It was a place where sin was rampant. Under normal circumstances, a Jew would not set foot in this city. Yet it is recorded in Matthew 16 that Jesus took His disciples here. It is in Caesarea Philippi that Jesus asked them, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?" and Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
Our last stop of the day was the Golan Heights. We gazed across a valley and could see the borders of Syria and Jordan. You could hear the emotion in Doron's voice as he shared with us about Israel's more recent history with stories about the six-day war.
At the day's end, we had a new appreciation for this land. The place where God chose to write His story and walk on human feet. We had a new appreciation for God's chosen people and a nation that He continues to keep close to His heart.

texases Posts: 5,717I don't know what the numbers were, but I would guess there were more 6s than V8s, and for the 6s, more 3 spd than 4 spd transmissions. I think the only 4 speed would be the "Dagenham", named for the town in England where it was made. From a web site: "Dagenham's four speed transmission built for Ford Motor Company came equiped in early to mid-60s Falcon, Comet, Fairlane and Mustang models powered by standard 170 or 200cid, six cylinder engines. They were manufactured in England."
hymes Posts: 4I remember a pickup in 1963 year with a 223. Also, the 240 was a standard pickup engine for years? Had one in a 66 van. Don't know anything about these motors in cars. The early 144 was solid lifters, and the much better 170 was just an increase in displacement and hydraulic lifters. I'm fairly certain that is right. I thought the 200 was just another size bump with internal mods.
chris_1965 Posts: 1I recently bought a 65 falcon 2 door and I was wondering if anyone new where I can find a set of front drop springs? I want to lower the whole car 1-2 inches, the right way, I know all the old school tricks for lowering the front end but I would rather do it the right way and the safe way.Any help would be great.

If you haven't tried it, Turntable.fm is a multiplatform music-streaming service that's made up of different user-created "listening rooms." You can wander through rooms and soak up the different genres, create your own rooms, or even take a turn spinning your own playlists (via MediaNet's catalog) while other listeners vote (up or down) on your song choices. Turntable.fm offers a completely unique way of discovering music, different from Pandora's or Grooveshark's.
To get started, create an account, and start browsing through listening rooms. On the main menu screen, you can search for a room by name, or browse through popular rooms, favorites, or only those with empty DJ seats. Before entering, you can see how many listeners are in each room, but you can't see a full room description. This makes it difficult to quickly browse, as you actually have to enter rooms to get a feel for their music.
