If we go defense the first round Ireland needs to get fired right away. But it would be typical of Ireland to draft a DT in the first round.

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
DE is way more important than CB in my book. It's one thing if the 2nd coming of D.Revis is on board then grab him otherwise an improved pass rush will always improve the backend play...just see NYG's two Superbowl wins one being against the number 1 offense of all time!

1/ M.Gordon RB
2/ A.Kouandjio OG
IF we sign Starks we will not go DE first round. Gauranteed.
If I can only choose one out of these 2 guys, I'd have to take Jordan. Just too much potential there to pass on. Banks is good, but having a good rotation of pass rushers is essential if you want to compete in this league.
2014 Mock Draft
1. Zack Martin - OT/OG - Notre Dame
2. Chris Borland - ILB - Wisconsin
3. C.J. Fiedeorowicz - TE - Iowa
4. Trai Turner - OG - LSU
5. Brandon Thomas - OT/OG - Clemson
6. Storm Johnson - RB - South Florida
7. Calvin Barnett - DT - Oklahoma State
I think david amerson is better fit then banks,but Jordan would be great addition ,but I would take Montgomery or mingo over him this draft is deep enough that we don't need to reach for players lots of value in 2013 draft!!
Round 1 - Brian Cushing OLB
Round 2 - Ron Brace DT
Round 2 - Sean Smith DB
Round 3 - Jasper Brinkly ILB
Round 4 - Augustus Parrish OT
Round 5 - Marko Mitchell WR
round 7 - Marlon Lucky RB
round 7 - Greg Carr WR
round 7 - Ryan Purvis TE
Jordan would be a better pick at our spot. we shouldn't force drafting for need if it's too high

In the state of Kentucky you can get your windshield replaced for "free", meaning no deductible is paid, but you must have KY Comprehensive coverage on your vehicle. If you only have Liability coverage on your vehicle you will have to pay to get your windshield replaced in Kentucky since it is not covered by your auto insurance policy.
So if you have Kentucky based comprehensive insurance, KY laws state that your insurance company will waive the deductible for windshield repair or replacement, which means no out-of-pocket expense for you.
Kentucky Revised Statute (KRS) 304.20-060 is titled coverage for safety equipment, definition and states:
(1) As used in this section, "safety equipment" shall mean only the glass used in the windshield, doors, and windows, and the glass, plastic, or other material used in the lights required by KRS Chapter 189 on any automobile.
(2) Any automobile insurance policy that provides comprehensive coverage, whether designated as such, or included within a broader coverage, shall provide complete coverage for repair or replacement of damaged safety equipment, without regard to any deductible or minimum amount.
There are only a few states in the US that waive the deductible for windshield replacements or repairs. The states of Florida, Kentucky, Massachusetts and South Carolina waive the deductible and thus are referred to by some as zero deductible states with regards to windshield claims.
In all these states you must first have Comprehensive or glass breakage coverage to have your windshield replaced or repaired without a deductible. Liability insurance does not cover your own vehicle in any way so this part of your car insurance policy would not cover your windshield that was cracked by a rock thrown up by a vehicle as a piece of roadway debris.

Newcastle United vs Manchester City Live Streaming English Premiership 15/12/2012
Get ready to watch Newcastle United vs Manchester City live stream streaming online on 15/12/2012. The live online stream commentary and live online radio broadcast English Premiership match between Newcastle United and Manchester City at St James' Park will have the Magpies attempt to further derail the Citizens' faltering efforts to retain their title. Newcastle United will not be in the best of shapes heading into this live English Premiership online streaming football game against Manchester City after their tame defeat to Fulham last Monday. However, there is undeniably a strong desire rippling within the Magpies squad to put things right in this live streaming commentary and live online TV telecast English Premiership match between Newcastle United and Manchester City as they aim to get their own season back on the right track. Newcastle United defender Danny Simpson is full of belief that the Magpies can make life difficult for Manchester City, who are themselves entering the match after their first league defeat of the season last week 2-3 to Manchester United. With Simpson having played for United in the past, the defender is keen to help his former teammates return to league glory with a resounding win at St James' Park, which could spark further recovery going into the second half of the season. Newcastle United's track record against the big teams this season has not been the best with only Tottenham Hotspur being beaten so far. There is strong belief within Alan Pardew's squad that they can turn things around but they will need to do it without several of their key players, including Yohan Cabaye who will not be back in midfield until later next year. Star winger Hatem Ben Arfa is also a serious doubt for the clash with Man City as he continues to suffer with a persistent hamstring injury which pulled up again against Fulham. The Frenchman is undoubtedly a bright spark in the Magpies attack but has struggled with injuries ever since his arrival on an initial loan a while back. With only one win in their last nine games in all competitions, Pardew knows that Newcastle United desperately needs a lift against Manchester City as well as the winter transfer window cannot come soon enough.
Watch as Manchester City are in serious trouble as they try to pick up the pieces after a cataclysmic defeat to United last weekend before this live commentary and live streaming radio broadcast English Premiership match between Newcastle United and Manchester City which has thrown their title defence into serious doubt. Manchester City are now trailing their arch rivals by six points in second place before this English Premiership live online streaming soccer game against Newcastle United and cannot afford to drop many more points in view of the Red Devils always picking up momentum in the second half of the season. City manager Roberto Mancini is also struggling to contain a crisis in his dressing room before this live stream commentary and live streaming online TV telecast English Premiership match between Newcastle United and Manchester City as talk of unrest gathers pace and with reports of an increasingly strained relationship with goalkeeper Joe Hart. Mancini also publicly berated Carlos Tevez, Mario Balotelli and more in the wake of last weekend's defeat and it would be a surprise if the players are motivated against Newcastle United. One will not need reminding that Newcastle United almost beat Manchester City in last season's corresponding fixture before Mancini moved Yaya Toure into an advanced position and the Ivorian helped pull the win out of the hat for the Citizens. With Toure in poor form this season and likely ruled out today with injury, City are facing another unsettling loss today. The nervy City defence will also have to contend with Newcastle's front African pair Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse. While the latter continues to struggle for form, Ba has continued where he left off last season and will be a threat throughout the match.
The English Premiership online stream game Newcastle United vs Manchester City will be shown on many of the best major satellite TV and telecast networks, with live streaming online on Internet PCs, sopcast, streamtorrent, torrentstream, flash and online channels also available. Do not miss out on the games with the best and most reliable broadcasters and stations from the opening kickoff.

Life & Myself
2014-08-14 20:34:06 by The-Psycho-Ragdoller
Life. It comes with so much more trouble than it should. Why? I wish I had a way with words, because typing my opinion on something always feels so incomplete. It's like there's always more to be said, and unless I find those right combination of words to phrase exactly what I'm thinking, I'm never going to feel satisfied. And that's what this whole statement will be about: Me being happy. The truth is I'm not, and I've been thinking this in my head for the past few weeks. For a long time I thought I was, but now I just find myself putting on temporary smiles and silly greetings to make others feel more comfortable around me. But before I list the reasons as to why I'm not satisfied, I'd like to share a little more on the recent events that helped me realize how I truly feel.
This summer started as just a regular summer, I really wanted to relax before Senior year and not have to worry about much paperwork, but like the other breaks of course I was given tasks at expected due dates. Now, I have been told that whatever things I may work on now will eventually benefit me in the future, and to be honest, I can't necessarily argue with that. However, I do have a problem with what I am doing, which is no way satisfying to me. I never really wanted to make some of the things I've made, or say some of the things I was thinking, but for some reason people expect these things of me. When will I be able to do the things that I want to do? This completely goes against me being my own boss and I feel like I've been stuck between my beliefs versus someone else's expectations for quite a while now. Blindly. And it is not a very rewarding feeling, it's more obligation than anything else, which can go either in a good, or bad way. But there is also more that bothers me, like a proper audience, as well as guide. I am a very laid-back person at first sight, I am honest, I am benevolent, I listen to others who need my help, I will work hard for something, and I will enjoy learning and applying for that something as long as it is relevant or pertains to my specific interests. But on the inside, I'm hurting, and I don't know who to talk to about it. Even though I've said so in the past, I've never found someone who's even close to being like me. Someone I can tell my stories too, and not just get a less thought out reply back. Someone who can try to walk me through my problems without a casual "You'll be fine," and remembers me for my character, rather than what I currently do, which I should remind you, doesn't even make me happy. Talents come afterward.
I realize a lot of things now, the first is that no matter how someone else phrases this, or disagrees with how I phrase it, I'm aware that "You're going to have to deal with a lot of other peoples shit before you can even think about working on your own." And that's a very sad thing to have to do, but by societal standards, it really separates the weak from the strong-willed. By my standards, you'll be very very unhappy for a long time, if not, forever doing both anyway. The next thing I realize is you will be placed somewhere outside of your comfort zone on several occasions, and at times, it will feel against your will. Whether it's literally going somewhere new for whatever reason, or sharing a hardship that you believe no one needs to know about, these things will at times be expected of you. Now, I don't have a problem with things like these per se, but I do see some very controversial things with this. First off, why should someone share something that they know would cause people to judge them? Regardless of whether or not the judgement if good or bad, the fact of the matter was they didn't want to share it. And Secondly, why would you tell someone that you can already sense either does not have any way of benefitting you, or genuinely does not care enough to even attempt to fix your situation? No, we're supposed to share these things because of expectations for the higher-ups, if you ask me, that makes our lives a real Alice-In-Wonderland. But maybe I'm getting too moody and personal.
I really dislike talking about myself, as I feel narcissistic doing so, but I have to clear my mind and find the right person to share this with. Being vulnerable is not something I am comfortable doing, especially while learning how conceited most people really are in this world. Even though I wish they weren't. I don't know who that is, but I hope I find them long before anything significantly bad happens. Believe me, I still want to be the best person I can be, and I don't want any pity from whomever is willing to give me any, that's one reason I tried my best not to list any specific situations that made me type this much. The second reason is that it's just embarrassing. But if I don't find the right help, from the right people, before the wrong time comes, I really feel like I'm going to snap one day. I need guidance, and to be free and secure. Without those things, I can't see myself even working towards living my dream and being truly happy. With that being said, I was never good at keeping promises, but from now on I will try my best not to lie to myself anymore about when I am uncomfortable with something, and if possible, speak up to things that I genuinely disagree with. I promise.
For those of you that care, below is a list of my Interests:
• Learning about Animation & Actually Animating
• Learning about VIdeo Games & Actually Gaming
• Learning about Drawing & Actually Drawing
• Learning about Personalities (Socio-Sexual Hierarchy, Astrological Signs, etc.)
• Thinking
• Talking, Making Jokes & Asking Questions
• Watching Insightful Videos/TV Shows
• Writing
• Cooking & Eating
• Collecting
• Sleeping
Note: The only reason I enjoy these things is because I know they are relevant to my life, and have specific tasks I wish to accomplish in my life.
I suppose this can be a sort of update, as I should also share that I will be trying to update some of my profile images, as I felt they were a bit too old to keep. I also deleted all of my Art, seeing as how it was very unlikely I'd be scouted with images like those. But I have to admit, at least I was happy when I made them.
Please feel free Private Message me, or Comment if you have anything you wish to ask me or just throw out in the open.

I have discovered lilly of the valley grwoing in a sunny bed. how would i bset go about transplanting them to a sahdy spot in the garden? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Just dig around a bunch and plant in newly prepared hole in shady spot. I once dug up a patch of these growing around my foundation so we could install a drainage pipe. We were not careful at all. The next spring, here comes the lily of the valleys in all their glory as if nothing ever happened. You do not have to be gentle with these. They are rather invasive too. Good luck. |
I agree with anitamo. Very Strong! We wanted to completely clear out a bed so we removed all flowers, dug out all the dirt and roots, layed plastic and finally a thick layer of mulch was applied. Sure enough, this spring, Lily of the Valley is back. |
Just wait and you won't have to X plant them, they'll make it there on their own. |
I found a stray from who knows where under a shub and I thought OH HOW NICE and planted in a bed of violets. It's two years now and the violets are gone and taken over. I love them though... |
Hi, i am new to all this and I need some help. My mother in law is going to bring me some Lilly of the valley at the end of the month and I have no idea where to plant them. I have found through out all the forums that they can come up through driveways, side walks, and almost anything. I wanted to plant some of them next to my house under my bay window and the rest were going to go into the back yard around my gazebo. Is this a good idea? In both spots they will be around no other flowers (I've already decided against that idea) LOL. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you |

MUFAs are monounsaturated fatty acids. MUFAs are considered a healthy type of fat. If your diet includes unsaturated fats such as MUFAs (and polyunsaturated fats) instead of saturated fats and trans fats, you may gain certain health benefits.
Consuming monounsaturated fatty acids may help lower your risk of heart disease by improving risk factors. For instance, MUFAs may lower your total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels but maintain or increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. MUFAs may also help normalize blood clotting. And some research shows that MUFAs may also benefit insulin levels and blood sugar control, which can be especially helpful if you have type 2 diabetes.
MUFAs are a central part of the heart-healthy Mediterranean diet. But even if you don't follow a Mediterranean-style diet, you can include more of these MUFA-rich foods in your diet:
Just don't go overboard. All fats, including MUFAs, are high in calories, so use MUFAs only in moderation. Consume MUFA-rich foods instead of other fatty foods, not in addition to them. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend that fat make up no more than 20 to 35 percent of your daily calories.

This website is aimed at people living, working and visiting the Whitmore area. Everyone in the community is encouraged to contribute and all thoughts, comments and suggestions are very welcome.
General Statistics The Parish of Whitmore, covering an area of about 20 square miles, has six settlements containing some 650 dwellings and a 1999 Mid-Year Population Estimate of 1410.
The Parish varies in height from 137 – 182 metres above sea level and there are outstanding views to all points of the compass and the higher surrounding hills create an intimate feel to the countryside. Surprisingly, rain that falls in the Parish may end up in the North Sea, the Bristol Channel or the Mersey as the main watershed of England lies just outside the Parish. There are traces of human occupation and land use in the Parish over the last 4000 years. For instance, the late Neolithic tumuli in Maer Hills, a late Iron Age hill fort known as "The Borough", the Roman camp on Camp Hill, the Roman Signal Station in Manor Road and Saxon associations with Whitmore Hall and Church.

Home-based in London Ontario, digibee.net is the web design studio of Mike Cygalski. We help small business owners, organizations and individuals with their online presence. We offer personal attention, professionalism and attractive websites that work. We optimize the sites we design for findability or easy indexing by search engines. We even do house calls in London Ontario and region. Optionally, we provide full-service managed website hosting with content updates upon request for a very reasonable fee.
Our services are affordable. A small website with company overview page, services offered page, recent projects page, about page, and contact information is the budget option, yet it offers so much more than say a tiny two-thousand-dollar-a-year display ad in the London Ontario yellow pages alone. Moreover, you pay less for the web design and don't have to pay for it again next year. Have a look at our sample web design fees for an idea of just how affordable our services can be.
Our web design quotes are firm. Give us a call at 519-685-3904 or our toll-free number outside of London Ontario and get Mike to give you an estimate. If you are interested, ask for a firm quote with all web design work to be done and fees specified in writing. Sleep on it, and when you are ready, set up a time to go over our web design contract.
You wouldn't believe how far we are willing to drive. However, if your business is more than an hour from downtown London, we would probably be better off talking quotes and preliminaries on the phone. For contact information visit our contact information page.
We offer simple online presence solutions based on valid HTML5 & CSS, hand-coded with semantic design love.
For our web design clients and people with websites that qualify, we offer full-service managed website hosting with content updates upon request and email addresses at your domain. We also register domains names. We promise not to bother you with technical details, unless you are interested.

Revlon Trio: Nearly Naked 180 Medium Beige Foundation, Photoready Color Corrector Primer and Nearly Naked 030 Medium Powder |
I'm not a serious fan of drugstore foundations but had the chance to purchase and try Revlon's NEW Nearly Naked Foundation and Pressed Powder. I usually like and wear Lancome's Tient Miracle (with pump applicator) as far as liquid foundations go. As for photoshoots I use Kett's Airbrush Foundations. However, I was looking for something ultra light, relatively waterproof, with a decent SPF for summer. I already have the Revlon ColorStay Whipped foundation which has amazing holding power. All the same that foundation is a bit heavy.
The Revlon Nearly Nakeds are said by some to be a dupe for the pricier Urban Decay foundation. I don't know if that is the case but I think it has more in common with its ColorStay Liquid Foundation cousin. Like ColorStay, there is no pump dispenser so you have to pour a bit out on your hand to start applying with a brush or sponge, (I like the Beauty Blender). You can easily pour too much and make a mess but the formula is not overly runny. I used Bobbi Brown's Makeup Base + Sunblock (SPF 50) and a bit of L'Oreal's Miracle Blur but not a lot else. I quickly applied the NN foundation with a large stippling brush and worked it in over my Kat Von D (Sephora) Lock-It Concealer and NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. I added a little extra Hard Candy Glamoflage to my chin area and finished it off with a light dusting of the Nearly Naked 030 Medium Powder. Then just a few strokes of Brass Plum Bronzer for a beachy glow that that was it.
The Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation has a SPF 20. Here are the results below shot in full sun on a nearly cloudless day while out riding on my bicycle:
Revlon's NN liquid & powder with Bobbi Brown Base |
I would say that the coverage is about medium as I did not build or layer it. I don't have too many freckles or blemishes but it easily covered what I do have. When I blotted it after taking a bicycle ride in 66 degree weather today, there was NO makeup transfer which once again reminds me of it's kissing cousin, ColorStay. I did not wear too much moisturizer as it was warmer than usual and I wanted the lightest application possible. So I'm used to a little more of a dewy finish but this was not dry or cakey by any means. It also did not darken and oxidize. Stayed pretty much the same as when I applied it. Here is another picture only this time I used their Revlon Photoready Color Correcting Primer underneath:
I think the Color Corrector gave my skin more of a lift but this picture was also taken as the sun was going down. Still you get the idea. The fact that the Nearly Naked Foundation doesn't have a pump is not a deal breaker for me. The surprise is how luxe and finely made the matching Nearly Naked Pressed Powder is! It's like silk and VERY translucent. So it is not as if you are adding more pigmentation to your skin, hiding it underneath opaque layers. Just the opposite. You can see my skin through the make up which matches my coloring and undertones very well.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Lulu!
Facts about Lulu
- Breed: Bullmastiff/English Mastiff Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With Black
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Lulu's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Lulu was turned into rescue when her family didnt have time for her, though she really needs training so she didnt get a lot of attention ever. she is housebroken, crate trained and very sweet. She is good with kids and most other dogs. We were told she was purebred, then after we had her a couple days were told she was a mix. She is very underweight but wont be a heavy dog as she is lighter boned. She is very loving and loves attention, will follow you everywhere, and desperately needs her own secure home. she MUST be an indoor dog . if you are interested in adopting Lulu contact Dawn at firstname.lastname@example.com or 602-677-8034 you can speed up the process by putting in an application on www.bullmastiff.us/rescue
Other Pets at Arizona Bullmastiff Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Lulu, a Phoenix Bullmastiff/English Mastiff dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Bullmastiff/English Mastiff for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Bullmastiff/English Mastiff dog from a breeder in Phoenix.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Bullmastiff/English Mastiff breeders who help with Bullmastiff/English Mastiff rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

Specifically related to the Farm in A Fat Goblin E1. Is LoS and movement blocked by the wall that looks like it's jutting out into the next square, forcing figures to move straight through the 2 square middle opening, or can figures treat it like a corner and pass around it as an adjacent square?
How corners work for LoS and adjacency have been pretty clear cut so far aside from this one spot due to the black areas.

The kitchen cabinets used to be a pickled oak color and I picked out this granite to match the cabinets and chose the harlequin backsplash to match the granite. Unfortunately, it ended up being way too busy. We toned it way down by spray painting the cabinet doors a mocha color and now I think it looks fabulous.

U.S. farmers harvested more corn in 2013 than in 2012, while the soybean harvest declined slightly, according to USDA reports released Friday.
In 2013, Illinois farmers saw the best soybean yields in the nation, outpacing the soy heavyweight of Iowa. In 2013, the state of Illinois reported 49 bushels per acre, while Iowa farmers only got 45 bushels per acre out of their fields last year.

CureSearch for Children's Cancer funds and supportstargeted and innovative children's cancer research with measurableresults, and is the authoritative source of information and resourcesfor all those affected by children's cancer.
Source: Lake Zurich Courier
February 2, 2010 (Chicago, IL) - A decade ago one family's personal tragedy became the impetus for a new foundation dedicated to pediatric cancer research: The Jeffrey Pride Foundation. Since then, 25 volunteers have joined forces to put on eight golf outings and three dinner dances, and raise almost $900,000 for research. These funds allowed 261 children "who thought their battle was lost, to participate in clinical trials of new drugs around the world," said Foundation Secretary Jan Fijal. As a result, two new drugs became so successful that they are now part of treatment protocols, and two additional drugs show great promise!
The Fourth "Warm Winter's Night" Dinner Dance to benefit the Jeffrey Pride Foundation for Pediatric Cancer Research will be held at the Westin Chicago Northwest in Itasca on March 6. This year's focus is to celebrate the foundation's 10th year, "which is significant because most small community-based or family foundations make it only three years on average," according to Jan.
The foundation also hopes to raise $100,000, toward its goal of donating $1 million dollars to CureSearch, "the leading pediatric cancer researchers in the world." The evening will begin at 6 p.m. and includes a silent auction, live auction, raffle, and dancing to the live music of High Society. A wide variety of unique silent and live auction items will be offered, including vacations, a puppy, tickets for sporting events, a wine tasting with a master sommelier, and a few other surprises.
Of course all of these efforts would not be possible without a lot of hard work. The foundation's board members are all Lakeview neighbors: President Karen Powell, Vicepresident Phil Fijal, Treasurer Jim Powell, Secretary Jan Fijal, and Dr. Jim and Ann Pride. The Foundation is named for the Pride's son, Jeffrey, who lost his battle with leukemia 10 years ago at the age of seven. Volunteers for this event include: Lisa Reiff, Deb Jourdan, Cindy Tinkoff, Patti Dulla, Kathy Crissie, Martina Swarbrick, Julie Koelzer, Jan Ackmann, Deb Taylor, Nancy Linden (all of Lakeview), Sue Swail (Chateaux Bourne), and Susan Manenti (of North Barrington). "It's hard to believe that we are celebrating our 10th year as a foundation," remarked Jan.
"Our enthusiasm and dedication for finding a cure for pediatric cancers has not diminished at all. We are thrilled that two drugs, whose clinical trials we funded, were so successful that they are now part of treatment protocols, and two others are showing much promise. Without the support of everyone in our community and surrounding communities this progress would not have been possible, and for that we are eternally grateful." She added, "No foundation can do it alone, and we are so grateful to each and every one of our volunteers and supporters who have helped us over the years. We hope to see many of them at this year's dinner dance."
Tickets are $150 a person. For further information please contact Jan (847) 382-6261 or pj email@example.com.

Trouble in Hrithik's married life!
Hrithik Roshan's sizzling off screen chemistry with Brazilian co-actress Barbara Mori irks Rakesh Roshan as well as Suzanne Khan. Mexican actress Barbara Mori takes over from where Aishwarya had left in Dhoom 2. We are indeed talking about the sizzling hot chemistry between Hrithik Roshan and Barbara in Anurag Basu latest much talked project Kites. The Roshans may not be talking about their upcoming movie Kites sensuous theme and scenes, but we hear that the chemistry between Hrithik and Barbara promises to burn the screen. According to the insiders on the sets the scenes between Hrithik and Miss Mori were so intimate and sensuous that papa Rakesh Roshan would gently be asked to leave the set. Its said that the Bollywood heartthrob, is having the time of his life, shooting for "Kites" in exotic locales like Las Vegas, New Mexico and Los Angeles. But daddy Rakesh Roshan, the producer and now also the director of the movie, is having sweaty palms because of his son's raunchy antics. Hrithik, hitherto known to be a perfect gentleman and a wonderful husband is reportedly giving in to the allure of co-actress Barbara Mori. The stunning shooting locations, known for their uninhibited air and sheer abandon when it comes to catering the wildest fantasies, are heaving a great effect on Hrithik's mind, and heart as well! Buzz has it that the incredibly sensual Latin beauty Barbara Mori, who also happens to be Hrithik's mistress in the flick, has bewitched the Bollywood hottest hunk in real life. Hrithik is enjoying the umpteen "roll in the hay" scenes in the film with Barbara so much, that he is carrying off some of it off screen, too! The news has already reached and worried Papa Rakesh, and he has taken over the responsibility to watch over his son. Rakesh is even gathering around his family and friends for help in getting his son back to old good boy tracks. It is believed that Papa Rakesh Roshan was extremely upset with Hrithik's off screen bonding with his Brazilian c-actress and decided to bring his family together and got Suzanne and the kids to fly down to the States. News of Hrithik's closeness with the hot actress was making the rounds in Mumbai too and apparently, Rakesh Roshan who was annoyed by the development, suggested that family joins Hrithik. It is also believed that Suzanne and her boys surprised Hrithik who had arranged a special dinner in his hotel suite for the cast and crew. It is said that Rakesh Roshan has decided to direct the film himself. Ex director Anurag Basu is miffed for being manhandled out of the project so unceremoniously, but Rakesh is seriously concerned about Hrithik's (now no more!) happy family life. Even though the original director of photography Bobby Singh has been replaced by Ayananka Bose, the Roshans claim there was no malice involved in the changeover. Speaking to from Las Vegas, Hrithik said, "It was an amicable split. Now, Ayananka Bose is the DOP". According to a reliable source, "Bobby and Anurag are friends, besides being a great team. Anurag appreciates Bobby's work and gives him a free hand. But Roshan had his own ideas of how the movie should look. He did not agree with Bobby's style and would interfere in camera angles and light shot etc. Initially Bobby kept quiet as Rakesh is a senior filmmaker an creative differences happen on every set. But as the days went by, Bobby felt his work as a cinematographer was increasingly getting undermined". The differences between Bobby and Roshan were affecting everyone on the set. Things finally came to a head on the day when Roshan shouted at Bobby in front of the whole cast and crew. According to the source, "Bobby was fixing his camera for a particular shot when Rakesh came up to him and started firing him loudly". Rakesh had apparently told Bobby to do the shot from another angle But Bobby wanted to try a different angle. Rakesh was furious as Bobby had disregarded his instructions, and made his displeasure clear in front of the entire unit. Bobby felt so humiliated about this dressing down that he stormed off the sets and took a flight straight back to Mumbai. When contacted Bobby does not deny the story but says, "Yes, I am no more a part of Kites but I do not want to talk about the issue". When contacted, Rakesh Roshan was not willing to comment about the movie. He said, "All is well with Kites. We are on schedule. After completing shooting in Mexico on 12 September, we have moved to Las Vegas. From here we will relocate for the last lap for the USA shooting to Los Angeles on 3rd October and we will be returning to Mumbai on 12 October". Barbara, the on screen mistress is proving to be a potential threat to Suzanne Khan's serene conjugal life. Earlier, Hrithik Roshan was also rumoured to be smitten by Kareena Kapoor. Hope Suzanne learns some moves from Hrithik's on screen wife Kangana Ranaut in "Kites", or she will lose the string over her hot dashing husband!

Magic 2015 Review (iOS)
At this point, if you're a frequent visitor of Arcade Sushi you probably have some idea of what Magic the Gathering is, but for those of you who don't, know that it's an incredibly addictive card game that will chew up the unwary and spit them out sans their wallets if they're not careful. Using their scrying orbs, Magic's developers, Wizards of the Coast, have looked far into the future and seen that this whole "video games" thing is here to stay, so they've decided to jump into the fray by converting their popular tabletop card game series into something a bit more digital. Magic 2015 is the latest in their series, and it's just as complex and addictive as ever.
The basic game structure pits two players against each other as sorcerers using magical lands as mana to summon monsters and cast spells while trying to deplete the life points of the other. There are five colors of decks to choose from, each with their own distinct playstyle and sub-playstyles based on what color combination you might choose. Magic 2015 can seem pretty daunting for the uninitiated, but the robust tutorial does a good job of helping newbies understand everything from the difference between tapped and untapped to what Undying or Vigilant creatures do.
The physical card game of Magic is, at this point, famous for the epic number of different cards, abilities, spells, and artifacts at a players disposal, and while Magic 2015 obviously doesn't have everything, the number of cards in here are pretty staggering. You could play a long time before ever seeing two opponents using the same cards. While having so many cards for you and your foes to fight with makes for unpredictable and varied play, it also can be a bit overwhelming at times. There's a fine balance between making a game deep, meaning that you can continue to discover new elements of the game as you play, and complex, meaning that there are a lot of gears and mechanisms to memorize. Magic 2015 is definitely deep, but it's also pretty complex making certain aspects of the game feel sluggish when compared to modern card games like Blizzard's Hearthstone. For example, Magic's setup often rewards defensive play over active play, so expect there to be many turns where you and your opponent act like hoarders and do nothing other than stock up on monsters and toilet paper. Strategic? Yes. Dull? At times.
Outside of the robust tutorial is an equally-robust campaign mode featuring countless AI opponents to defeat and booster packs of cards to unlock. With each foe you fell, you'll earn new cards with which you can customize your deck. These cards are randomized, meaning that you and a friend may each start the campaign using the same deck, but will have very different decks by the end of it. There's also online multiplayer for those of you who prefer a flesh-and-blood opponent to throw down against. Magic 2015′s pricing seems pretty generous initially, as you get a nice selection of content right off the bat, but once you've played for a while roadblocks will begin to pop up asking you to plunk down some real cash if you wish to continue. The prices of additional content such as extra single-player battles, booster packs, and "foil" upgrades to make your cards all nice and shiny, are all fairly reasonable, but still a bit more than you'd pay in most non-free-to-play titles.
Magic's visuals communicate what's happening clearly, albeit without much flare, and its music fits the action without being particularly exciting or distracting. The touch controls, however, can be a bit finicky at times, and aren't always intuitive. There are situations when you'll be trying to select an ability, or back out of a card description, and you'll accidentally skip the rest of your turn or select the wrong card because the you weren't exactly sure where you were supposed to be touching the screen. Issues like these probably won't happen too often, but in a game as strategic (and unforgiving) as Magic 2015, little booboos like these will stick in your craw.
Few games, let alone free-to-play games, offer as much quality, thoughtful content as Magic 2015. Thanks to the high complexity, massive depth, and occasional sluggish pacing, this card battle game probably isn't for everyone. However, for those fans who don't mind chewing through some tough hide to get to the good meat, Magic 2015′s a meal they won't want to pass up.
This review was based on a downloaded copy of Magic 2015 for iOS.

OLYMPIA – The Washington State Supreme Court today rejected a lawsuit claiming that Initiative 1183, which privatized state liquor sales, violated the state Constitution's requirement that proposed laws only address a single subject. The Court also rejected a claim that the description of the new law on voters' ballots was misleading.
OLYMPIA – A United States District Court judge ruled today that there is no reason to shield from public view petitions from a 2009 ballot measure on domestic partnerships.
The state's political parties lost another battle against Washington's popular Top 2 primary today, a loss state officials hopes will put an end to years of litigation. US District Court Judge John Coughenour of the Western District of Washington at Seattle today ruled the Top 2 primary as implemented in partisan elections "is constitutional because the ballot and accompanying information eliminate the possibility of widespread confusion among the reasonable, well-informed electorate."
The Attorney General's Office announced a settlement in its lawsuit against the Washington State Republican Party (WSRP) for violating thestate's campaign finance disclosure law.
The Attorney General's Office today settled a lawsuit against the Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish Counties (MBA-K&S) for violating the state's campaign finance disclosure law.
OLYMPIA – The Attorney General's Office today filed a lawsuit in Thurston County Superior Court against Moxie Media and other defendants for multiple alleged violations of the state's campaign financial disclosure law.
The Attorney General's Office and the Evergreen Freedom Foundation recently settled an eight-year old lawsuit against the National Education Association (NEA), which alleged the organization illegally used fees paid to it by non-members for political purposes. The suit, filed in Thurston County Superior Court in October 2002, alleged the NEA violated a state law barring unions from using non-member fees for political purposes without permission.
State Attorney General Rob McKenna won his first case before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in a unanimous ruling upholding the state's felon voting laws and rejecting an earlier ruling that applied the federal Voting Rights Act to Washington's felon disenfranchisement law.
Late yesterday, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals issued a stay of the recent U. S. District Court decision in Family PAC v. McKenna, et al. that found the $5,000 timing restriction on contributions during the 21 days before a general election unconstitutional for ballot measures.
SEATTLE—In January, a split panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a 2-1 ruling in Farrakhan v. Gregoire, overturning Washington's felon disenfranchisement law, holding that it violates the federal Voting Rights Act and granting convicted felons in Washington the right to vote from prison and while on community supervision.
In an 8-1 decision today, the US Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of Washington's voter-approved public records law, retaining the public's ability to obtain copies of petitions signed in favor of placing initiatives and referenda on the ballot. Attorney General Rob McKenna personally argued the case on behalf of the state.
Secretary of State Sam Reed will join Washington State Attorney General Rob McKenna in Washington, DC, at the end of the month as McKenna argues his third US Supreme Court case, defending the constitutionality of Washington's voter-approved public records law.
OLYMPIA–Attorney General Rob McKenna today issued the following statement on the US Supreme Court's decision to hear Doe v. Reed, a case involving the release of Referendum 71 petitions containing the names and addresses of those who signed the measure.
"This case involves a direct attack on public disclosure and transparency in elections. It affects not only all Washington state initiatives and referenda but also has major ramifications for every state with an initiative and referenda process and similar laws regarding public disclosure.

Denver's 16th Street Mall
Discover the 16th Street Mall, located in downtown Denver. The mile-long, pedestrian friendly Mall is packed with shopping, restaurants and attractions.
Denver's mile-long 16th Street Mall is the heart of the city. Designed by famed architect I.M. Pei, the pedestrian promenade is made of red, white and gray granite in a repeating pattern that, seen from above, resembles the skin of a Diamondback rattlesnake. Free electric shuttle buses travel up and down the Mall, stopping on every corner. Hop on and hop off, the free shuttles come every few minutes and make everything downtown easy to reach.
The Mall offers Denver's best people-watching. There are 42 outdoor
cafes along the Mall, making it the perfect place to grab a bite to eat
or have a drink. Denver Pavilions,
near the south end of the Mall, is a shopping and dining complex with
12 movie theatres and more than two dozen shops and restaurants. At the
north end of the Mall, 16th Street continues as a pedestrian path over
three bridges connecting downtown to Commons Park and LoHi, a hip neighborhood filled with restaurants and brewpubs.
Points of interest along the Mall include the D&F Tower, a
two-thirds replica of the Campanile of St. Marks in Venice that was the
highest building west of the Mississippi when it was built in 1909.
After dark, horse-drawn carriages and pedi-cabs carry people up and
down the Mall, while nearly a million lights twinkle above in the more
than 200 trees that line the promenade.

When we bought the home, the pool and spa were in and the overall landscaping layout was in place. The landscaping was overgrown since the home had been empty for over a year, and there was scraggy grass in the "blank" areas around the plantings. We ripped out the grass and put in reddish desert colored river rock and built the firepit. I am more of a lagoon style pool person, but the previous owner was a lap swimmer so he built this large rectangular pool. At first I hated it, but there wasn't much we could do about it. Now I've learned to appreciate the serene stillness of the water in this style of pool and the way the geometric shape plays off the organic, natural feel of the landscaping.

Breakfast Topic: How do you feel about Mists of Pandaria spoilers? {WoW}
Apr 1st 2012 8:11AM Spoilers in video games don't bother me much. I guess it's because they aren't really the best medium for story telling.
Now I'm not one of those snobs who insist that video games aren't art, (and anyone who does so insist simply needs to listen to any of the WoW soundtracks) but as a mode of story-telling, I can enjoy them as much if I know what's going to happen.

This year I built my first earth-tainer. Last year was my first year of container gardening and I had build a large SWC. (more details in this post - SWC Method for Large Container) So I decided to compare both this year. I bought two pink brandywine plants (same height and health) and planted one in the earth-tainer and one in the large SWC. Both have same growing media, same fert. The earthtainer probably gets 30 more minutes of sun. After 16 days, the tomato plant in the earthtainer is 4 inches taller than that in the large SWC. (16 inches to 12 inches). Also the early girl in earthtainer is growing with a lot more vigor than other tomato plants in the large container. So far earthtainer 1, my large SWC built on family handyman design - 0. If this pattern holds on .. the large SWC will be relegated to cukes and lettuce next year while I grow more crops in earthtainer .. The large SWC does not have aeration holes and a lot more wicking area. May be that is the reason for better performance for the earthtainer? |

EMI Music Publishing Announces Joint Venture with Plan B to Create New Publishing Company
London – EMI Music Publishing, the world's leading publisher of popular music, has signed a joint venture agreement with Ivor Novello award winning songwriter Plan B to launch a new publishing company called Temperamental Music to discover the cream of writing talent from Britain and beyond, it was announced today.
The agreement will see Plan B – aka Ben Drew – leading the company from a creative standpoint, signing and developing songwriters, and working to develop new opportunities for them around the world. EMI Music Publishing will partner with Temperamental Music to handle key services including all aspects of synch and licensing and administration on a global basis.
Ben Drew said: "I've always wanted to be in control of my destiny and build my own empire and this is one step closer to that. I feel I can help young musicians progress and plant some positive seeds in their heads. Before I made it I was trying to help other people, the only difference is now I've got a budget."
EMI Music Publishing's President, UK and European A&R Guy Moot said: "You have to have a huge amount of respect for all that Ben has achieved not just as an artist but as a writer in the last five years. He knows what it takes to become a successful writer, and he recognises real talent when he sees it. He will bring the same strong creative vision to his publishing company that he brings to everything else he does, and we at EMI Music Publishing are looking forward to building this new long-term relationship with him to maximise the opportunity for the writers he signs to have their music heard on a global platform".
Daniel Lloyd Jones, Vice President A & R, EMI Music Publishing. added: "Ben's drive is second to none, he prides himself on excelling in everything does - his music, acting and directing – he is infectious and it's a privilege to be around his creative talents. The focus of this partnership deal is to channel his vision and creativity and support him in totality. Everyone at EMI is proud to work with him and Sam and Roy at Urok Management, and look forward to developing some exciting young talent."
A multi-talented songwriter, Plan B burst on the UK urban music scene with his 2006 critically acclaimed hip hop/grime record 'Who Needs Action When You Got Words', a debut that showcased his bleakly witty lyrical talent. His second studio album 'The Defamation of Strickland Banks', which went to number one on the UK album chart and is certified platinum, marked a significant change in genre, embracing a more soulful sound which allowed his vocal ability to shine through. The number one album has sold over a million copies to date and was named the fifth best selling album of 2011.
Plan B has received numerous industry accolades, most recently he was honoured with ASCAP'S Vanguard Award which adds to an already impressive haul of, amongst others, three Ivor Novello Awards , including the coveted Songwriter of the Year Award and the Album Award for 'The Defamation of Strickland Banks', as well as a Brit Award for British Male Solo Artist .
EMI Music Publishing is the world's leading publisher of popular music, representing more than one million copyrights including some of the best known songs ever written. Iconic songs in the EMI Music Publishing catalog include "New York New York", "You've Got A Friend", "The James Bond Theme", "Lady Marmalade", "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", "Always On My Mind", "Over The Rainbow", "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" and "Singin' In the Rain".

March Equinox Traditions and Events
Published 17-Mar-2008. Changed 6-Feb-2009
The March equinox coincides with many cultural events, religious observances and customs. Usually falling on March 20 or March 21, it is a time when the sun shines directly on the equator and day and night are almost equal across the world. It is also a time when many cultures observe rituals, customs or holidays, especially in the northern hemisphere where it is spring.

Easter Sunday celebrates the resurrection of Jesus, according to Christian belief. The Easter date depends on the ecclesiastical approximation of the March equinox. In 325CE the Council of Nicaea decided that the Easter date would be the first Sunday after the first full moon occurring on or after the March equinox. Easter is therefore delayed one week if the full moon is on Sunday, which lessens the likelihood of it falling on the same day as the Jewish Passover.
Higan, or Higan-e, is a week of Buddhist services observed in Japan during both the spring and autumn equinoxes when day and night are equal at length. Both equinoxes have been national holidays since the Meiji period (1868-1912). Before World War II, they were known as koreisai, or festivals of the Imperial ancestors. After the war, when the national holidays were renamed, they became simply spring and autumn equinoxes.
Higan is a one-week period surrounding the spring and autumn equinoxes. It means the "other shore" and refers to the spirits of the dead reaching Nirvana after crossing the river of existence. It celebrates the spiritual move from the world of suffering to the world of enlightenment and is a time to remember the dead by visiting, cleaning and decorating their graves and reciting sutras. Buddhist prayers, rice balls and sushi are offered. This is a time for the Japanese to worship their imperial ancestors and to welcome spring.
The Prophet Muhammad's Birthday
The Prophet Muhammad's Birthday (Mawlid An-Nabi) falls on March 20 in 2008. Mawlid, or Milad, marks the birth of the Islamic prophet Muhammed, or Mohamed, in the year 570 of the Gregorian calendar. Mawlid is a public holiday in many Islamic countries.
Nowruz (No-Ruz)
The Iranian start of the New Year (Nowruz, No-Ruz, No-Rooz or No Ruz) occurs during the time of the March equinox, in accordance with the Persian astronomical calendar The No-Ruz celebration of spring lasts for about 12 days and dates back to pre-Islamic times. Preparations begin well in advance and include purchasing new clothes for all family members and thoroughly cleaning homes. Wheat or lentil representing new growth is grown in a flat dish a few days before the New Year and is called Sabzeh (green shoots). Decorated with colorful ribbons, it is kept until the 13th day of the New Year, and then disposed outdoors. Oil Nationalization Day in Iran also falls on March 20.
Tunisian National Day
In Tunisia, March 20 is Independence Day. Following World War II, Tunisia experienced a surge of nationalism and in 1956 France signed a treaty to recognize the country's full independence.
Earth Day
Some organizations schedule Earth Day around the time of the March equinox while others set the date for April 22. For some, Earth Day is when people from all nations, religions and cultural backgrounds celebrate their similarities: living on earth. For others, Earth Day is observed to promote the protection the natural environment from pollution and other destructive forces. Earth Day activities include planting trees, cleaning roadside rubbish and conducting recycling and conservation programs. Earth day was first observed in 1970.
Back Badge Day
Back Badge Day falls on March 21, which in some years is the date of the March equinox. It is celebrated by the British Army's Gloucestershire Regiment, whose men wear a badge on the back as well as the front of their caps. They have done so since March 21, 1801, when the Battle of Alexandria was fought. The men were ordered to stand back to back, facing away from the charging French cavalry until the enemy were almost upon them. They then turned and fired, causing the French to retreat in disorder.
Other Observances
The Bahá'í New Year is also celebrated on March 21, which is the date of the March equinox in some years, such as 2003 and 2007.
In the northern hemisphere the March equinox marks the start of spring and has long been celebrated as a time of rebirth. It is an ancient Chinese custom to balance eggs – a symbol of fertility – on the day of the March equinox to bring good luck and prosperity.
According to Jewish tradition, God made the sun, moon and stars on the fourth day of creation – and once every 28 years the sun returns to the same astronomical position that it held that day. The Talmud says that the turning point of this cycle occurs at the March equinox.
Spring-cleaning in many countries occurs around the time of the March equinox, or the beginning of spring. It is a time set aside for cleaning homes and storing or giving away old furniture or items that are no longer used. The term "spring-cleaning" relates to the act of thoroughly cleaning a place.
timeanddate.com has tried to cover a range of events that occur around the March equinox but not every event or culture is included in this article. Also, any reference to spring in this article refers to spring in the northern hemisphere unless otherwise stated.

Just sayin'
Write this one down: Adam Morrison will be a terrific bust. He simply doesn't have the athleticism necessary to complement his skill set and make it in the NBA. Can you think of any current star who's remotely similar? Sure, people throw around Bird comparisons, but Bird was spectacularly talented and multidimensional in a way that Morrison isn't. It's just not going to happen.
1 comment:
Thanks for writing about sports, it's good to lighten things up once in a while. Morrison has some talent, but he also has those intangible qualities that the sportswriters refer to as "heart."
We'll see. He's no Larry Bird, but I think he may do alright.
When Gonzaga lost in the playoffs, my friends and I coined a new simile: to "cry like Morrison." - 6:50 PM
