Welcome to the Wise County Toy Run web site. The Wise County Toy Run began in November 1999 by a group of 8 local motorcycle enthusiasts. It started with an invitation to perform in a community parade. We managed to round up so many bikes that we thought about having our own toy run. The need was there, but could we do it? "OH YEAH!" We had participated in our share of local toy runs. So why not be a little different? Instead of your usual stand around toy run, we decided to make it enjoyable for everyone. First, we fed everyone. Then we decided to add all kinds of stuff to do, a 50/50 drawing, trailer raffle, auction and a bike show. And never forgetting the kids, they were also there for you to say hello to. Well the first year was a great success with over 300 bikes and 45 gallons of chili served. Many happy children had smiles on their faces and we all helped them have a wonderful Christmas. Every year gets bigger and we're able to help more children. So come on out and help some great kids. You'll have a warm, good down home time at the Wise County Toy Run 2014.

"The Bridge" To Feature Al Jourgenson
The upcoming feature film "The Bridge" brings together a cast of iconic rock musicians, some of whom will make their film debut: Joe Elliott of Def Leppard, Al Jourgensen of Ministry, Joey Santiago of the Pixies, Eddie Ojeda of Twisted Sister, Tiny Biuso of Doyle (ex-Misfit)/TSOL, Rick Warwick of Black Star Riders/Thin Lizzy, and Sin Quirin of Ministry.
Director/writer Bobby Field, with producers Denise Bohdan and Jason Gurvitz, announce the launch of their campaign for the film on Indiegogo. You can contribute to the campaign at this location.
Driven by its powerful original soundtrack, and written by Bobby Field, a musician and actor in his own right, "The Bridge" tells the story of a small town musical prodigy who must free himself from the shadows of his past to find love, hope and friendship that could lead him to the musical expression he never thought possible.
The campaign will offer fans unique experiences like building their own Fender guitar at Fender Factory with Jourgensen, Quirin or Santiago, "Joe Elliott's Big Fat Package" featuring a Telecaster Guitar and other autographed memorabilia, or having Santiago make you his famous spaghetti in your home.
The campaign will also benefit The Fender Music Foundation, and Fender Musical Instruments Corporation's Entertainment Marketing division will be providing key products for the actual filming. More...
Rocklahoma Band Lineup Revealed
Rocklahoma will rock the Midwest with a lineup featuring Kid Rock, Five Finger Death Punch, Staind, Twisted Sister, Deftones, Motörhead, and many more from May 23rd - 25th at "Catch the Fever" Festival Grounds in Pryor, OK. The three-day camping festival is presented by Bud Light.
The current band lineup for the 8th Rocklahoma is as follows: Kid Rock, Five Finger Death Punch, Staind, Twisted Sister, Deftones, Seether, Motörhead, Jackyl, Filter, Black Label Society, Theory of a Deadman, Killswitch Engage, Skid Row, All That Remains, Tom Keifer of Cinderella, Hellyeah, Kix, Down, Pop Evil, Adelitas Way, Black Stone Cherry, Trivium, Texas Hippie Coalition, The Pretty Reckless, Thousand Foot Krutch, Redlight King, Skindred, KYNG, We As Human, Nothing More, Devour the Day, Heaven's Basement, Gemini Syndrome, Butcher Babies, Eve to Adam, Truckfighters, Killer Dwarfs, Bai Bang, Lynam, ASKA, Black Tora, Firstryke, Mystery, Nasty Habit, Sleepy Hollow, Wicked, Down & Dirty, Loveblast, Ruff Justice, Ratchet Dolls, Ragdoll, Dellacoma, Chaotic Resemblance, Scattered Hamlet, Siren, Mach22, Tempt, London's Dungeon, Mine Enemies Fall, The Chimpz, Sleepwalking Home, Well Hung Heart, Framing The Red, Blackwater Rebellion, Dryver, and Dirty Crush.
"I initially questioned whether or not we would be able to top last year's Rocklahoma lineup this time around," says Joe Litvag, Rocklahoma's co-executive producer for AEG Live. "But with some of the biggest names in the rock world today like Kid Rock, Five Finger Death Punch, Seether and Deftones playing alongside Rocklahoma legends like Twisted Sister, Jackyl, Tom Kiefer of Cinderella and Kix, there is not a doubt in my mind that we just raised the bar! Memorial Day Weekend will never be the same!"
Dee Snider of Twisted Sister explains: "I view this festival as sort of a 'Royal Rumble' of rock; it's every band for itself, each trying to claim the belt. When Twisted Sister is done that night, the promoters are going to need to change the name of the event to 'I Wanna Rocklahoma'!"
Staind's Mike Mushok also says, "Totally stoked to play Rocklahoma again! I'm looking forward to a great day of music shared with some amazing fans!"

Old Bridge Metal Militia Benefit Show Report
The Old Bridge Metal Militia, credited with jump starting the metal community of New Jersey by opening their hearts and doors to the bands we old timers loved in our youth, held one of the most brilliant concerts to directly benefit the victims of Hurricane Sandy, the superstorm which ripped through the Jersey shore last year. Many people still suffer from that devastating storm, but to have the metal community be credited with assisting those in need was an honor to be part. Shortly after the event, it was revealed that through ticket sales and raffle sales, the event raised over $40,000 for the cause - a staggering number for the sold out event that housed 1,500 people.
I sprung for the VIP experience, for the opportunity to meet and talk with some of my idols like Dee Snider, John & Mark Gallagher, Joe Hasselvander, Mark Tornillo, Robb Reiner, David Rock Feinstein, Carl Canedy, AJ Pero, Eddie Ojeda was just too hard to pass up. The 2.5 hour drive from my safe zone in Connecticut was filled with a playlist featuring such classics as "Under the Blade," "Take Control," "Let Them Eat Metal" and "Metal On Metal," and as good fortune would have it, I heard them all live.

The Rockstar Ramblings: Bret Michaels, Fired!
It has been a while since I've wasted precious time watching Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice, but when I heard both Bret Michaels (Poison) and Dee Snider (Twisted Sister) would be contestants, well, I was in. Both had appeared in previous versions of the series, Michaels winning and Snider not. Last time, Michaels went to great lengths to secure his victory, staging a brain hemorrhage just weeks before the finale. That's good acting Bret! As for Dee, I'm just hoping he doesn't bring his family into this. More...

Heavy Metal Done Holiday Style
There are easily hundreds of heavy videos that fit the Halloween mood, but the Christmas holiday doesn't get nearly as much love from the metal world. But never fear, metal doesn't disappoint, and there are a few bands that have gone the extra mile and released videos to help get you through the uncomfortable family gatherings, drunk quarreling siblings, and even the off-key caroling. So whether you're a die-hard celebrant who can't sleep all night until Christmas morning or a scrooge with a "bah humbug!" on your lips, check out these video clips to keep your holiday fully metal.
Twisted Sister – "O Come All Ye Faithful"
Twisted Sister is notorious for awesomely cheesy videos with ridiculous opening segments, and covering a Christmas classic certainly wasn't going to change that. Enjoy it for the amazingly goofy guy happily spreading Twisted Sister cheer, the rocking rendition of an old holiday standby, or even just enjoy it for the dancing MILF!
Metal Videos To Get You In The Halloween Mood
Last year Dan from Autumns Eyes wrote up an article on the Top Ten Halloween songs in honor of that most metal of holidays. This year we're taking a look at those metal songs with music videos to get you into the proper Halloween mood, and to start off we'll head into the most crazy, over-the-top, and outright ridiculous videos to be found in metaldom.
Gwar – "Immortal Corruptor"
Anything involving both Halloween and metal pretty much automatically is connected with Gwar. The "Immortal Corrupter" video has got pretty much everything a good horror flick should have – monsters, skeletons, torture, disembowelments, and a flaming drum kit that shoots gouts of blood. If you already hate Gwar there's no way this clip will change your mind, but nobody can claim it isn't monstrously entertaining.
Twisted Sister Singer To Appear On Wifeswap
Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider will be taking part in the forthcoming series of Celebrity Wifeswap, according to CNN.com. He will reportedly be trading spuses with Flava Flav, the iconic hype man of rap legends, Public Enemy.

The Rockstar Ramblings: Giving Back
Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) is admitting that not only did he fall off the wagon in 2008, but fellow toxic twin, Joe Perry also joined him while they attempted to record a new album. The way Tyler tells it is that Joe was snorting so many prescription drugs he was unable to play guitar. Note that contrary to rumors, snorting non-prescription drugs does not enhance playing guitar…
With eight out of thirteen tracks completed, Sebastian Bach (ex-Skid Row) is expected to have a new album released in the Summer of 2011. Bach is promising rock and roll with clean vocals and lots of screaming. All signs are pointing to Sebastian putting his "country music" years behind him. It appears everyone has agreed to just ignore this and make believe it never happened and that's fine with me...
After attending classes and making a donation to M.A.D.D., Vince Neil (Motley Crue) is fully clear of his DUI charge. Neil will have the weekend to rest and then appear back in court on Monday for battery and disorderly conduct charges. For those keeping track it's: Vince Neil 2, Lindsay Lohan 2 for number of court appearances in 2011. The good news is both are below their annual average, the bad news is we are only one-third through the year… More...

A.J. Pero Announced As Spokesman For Fallen Blue
Twisted Sister drummer A.J. Pero has become the National Spokesperson for Fallen Blue, an organization created as a means to provide support, both emotional and financial, for the families of police officers who are killed outside the line of duty. Outside of drumming for Twisted Siste, Mr. Pero has dedicated his life to helping others less fortunate with his charity work.
"My name is A.J. Pero and I play drums for the Heavy Metal Band, TWISTED SISTER. I have been asked by John and Rachael from Fallen Blue to be a part of the Brotherhood. I jumped at the opportunity. I have become the National Spokesperson for this non-profit organization called Fallen Blue. I am honored to be a part of this family, this vital organization. I will help out 150%, so we can achieve our goals. Our goals are to help the families of these brave men and women who die outside the line of duty. When a police officer is killed outside the line of duty - whether accidentally or by their own hand due to job related stress - they don't receive the benefits. Some families can't even afford to have a funeral, never mind future bills. I've experienced that years ago when a friend on the job, stressed out and emotionally fried, shot himself. Our neighborhood stood together to help the wife and children. We had benefits and cookouts to raise money, but it just wasn't enough. This organization can and will become vital nationwide if we all recognize this is a reality and pull together our resources for all Law Enforcement Officers. Even though there are many different branches, we are all the same underneath and need to be treated as such. We would also like to eventually erect a physical Memorial where we can go and honor those killed outside the line of duty."
Sunday Old School: Twisted Sister
Raised in Long Island, New York the band Twisted Sister started as a seventies local glam band that would evolve into one of the most important heavy metal bands of the eighties (eventually flip-flopping and becoming more heavy metal with a dash of glam, opposite of their initial vision).
Twisted Sister was originally formed in 1972 by Jay Jay French. The band went through several line-up changes until 1979 when it settled on Dee Snider (vocals), Jay Jay French (guitar), Eddie Ojeda (guitar), Mark Mendoza (bass), and A.J. Pero (drums). In 1979 the band self released two singles and then was signed by Secret Records in the UK. With Secret they would release an EP titled "Ruff Cuts" and their first studio album, "Under the Blade," which quickly became an underground hit. The band would then sign with Atlantic Records and put out their second studio album, "You Can't Stop Rock n' Roll," in 1983.
In 1984 Twisted Sister shocked the heavy metal world, releasing "Stay Hungry," their contribution to an era that continues to define a decade. The album caught on with fans as well as government officials, organized as the P.R.M.C. (stands for the Parents Resource Music Center which is the least intimidating name I've ever heard). Twisted Sister was called out for their rebellious lyrics in the song "We're Not Gonna Take It." It was a strange group that included Twisted Sister, W.A.S.P., and Motley Crue as well as Madonna, Sheena Easton, and Prince. These proceedings eventually led to the "Explicit Material" or Tipper Sticker found on the cover of albums, cassettes, and CDs. After "Stay Hungry" the band would release the album "Come Out and Play" and then later, thought more of a Dee Snider solo project, the album "Love Is for Suckers" was released. More...

Babyshambles Play On Despite No Show From Doherty
[b]Pete Doherty[/b] failed to show at the NME Awards launch party at the O2 Arena tonight (December 6), but the rest of [b]Babyshambles[/b] soldiered on bravely without him.
After sets from current NME faves [b]Joe Lean & The Jing Jang Jong[/b] and [b]The Wombats[/b], Pete Doherty failed to show to lead planned headliner's Babyshambles.
Instead, the band carried on without him, with bassist [b]Drew McConnell[/b] taking vocal duties.
After pulling a member from the audience to sing "Carry On Up The Morning", Drew delivered vocals for five songs, joined by Josh from [b]The Paddingtons[/b], who sang vocals on a cover of The Clash's "Janie Jones".
The Shockwaves NME Awards are set to take place at the Indig02 on February 28, 2008.

There was an earlier post saying that we haven't seen pods forming on our tropical milkweed...so I decided to see if I could help things along!
I used a small water color brush & rubbed the inside of the flowers & look, it's working!!! I now have several dozen pods forming! I've used the paintbrush technique when I was wanting to make sure that my birdhouse gourds were pollinated & it works for milkweed as well! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Seed Pods Forming
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by susanlynne48 OKC7a (My Page) on Sun, Oct 17, 10 at 20:12
Way to go, Girl! My problem was that I had so many bugs and caterpillars, there were no flowers to pollinate, darn it! You can also do like we do tomatos, and just shake the flower stems. That works with "sticky" pollen, so it should work with the milkweed flowers, too. I have a feeling that all the heat and humidity we had this year caused the milkweed pollen to become "sticky" as well, making pollination a difficult, if not impossible, task. But, you're doing exceedingly well with your flowers! Congrats! Susan P.S. My Senna bicapsularis is setting seed now and I have collected several seeds from it for you. Awaiting the Verbesina alternifolia, and I can't remember what else we talking about. I also let my Hibiscus coccineus set some seed this year and have collected it as well if you want some (host for Grey Hairsteak). I can also collect some Boehmeria cylindrica or False Nettle seeds for Red Admirals and Question Marks if you want. |

I am excited to get pods finally! I was checking the plants today & saw 2 tiny queen cats on them...didn't check all of them but I'm not bringing any more monarchs or queens in, I only have one crysalid left out of several dozen. Susan, I have Verbesina encelioides -Cowpen Daisy. It has been blooming all summer & it raised several batches of Bordered Patches. Email me with your address & I'll send you some as well as anything else on my list you would like. I have gotten quite a few of my plants from seed swaps or I collected seeds out & about! I will be updating my list soon. I collected some Velvetleaf senna seeds & am planning on planting them in the spring. I'd love some of your senna seeds...is it hardy in your zone? Everything I've read says it is hardy to zone 8a. I also have several plants that aren't supposed to be hardy here but are even when we have bad winters like last year. My Caesalpinia gilliesii -- Bird-of-Paradise isn't supposed to be hardy here but is about 15ft tall & thriving! I have fresh seeds if you want some...it is host for Orange Barred Sulphur & Mexican Yellow. I think we talked about Clammyweed, also? Do you want some tropical seeds when I harvest them? We can wait until November to trade if you would like? I would like anything that is a host plant for my new BF bed I am in the process of making! I have a Texas star hibicus that I think is the same thing as the Hibiscus coccineus but I've never seen a cat on it. Do any BFs use Turk's cap for a host? |
- Posted by susanlynne48 OKC7a (My Page) on Mon, Oct 18, 10 at 10:14
Turk's Cap is a host to the White Skipper, but it's range is only into parts of very southern Texas. It might host Painted Ladies since they use many malva family plants, but probably not a favored host. I grow it for the hummers. Yes, it was the Clammyweed I really wanted. Caelsapinia gillesii is hardy in Oklahoma City as well. I tried to grow seed this spring, but the seedlings did not make it in our weird spring weather this year, darn it! So, yes, I'd love some seed from yours! The Verbesina I have is alternifolia, or Wingstem. It's a pretty plant with a pretty bloom, and what's really cool is it blooms heavily in shade to partial shade which is what it prefers. I also have Cosmic Orange cosmos and Peppermint, red/white striped Zinnias, and Verbena bonariensis. I may have some Dwarf Red Porterweed if I can figure out how to harvest the seeds. They were definitely pollinated by the hummingbirds, the Cloudless Sulphurs, Gulf Fritillaries, and Monarchs, all of which loved the nectar on it. I may also get some seed from my Night Blooming Jasmine, a sphinx moth fave, as well as a white Datura inoxia. Senna bicapsularis is not hardy in your zone or mine, but it reseeds prolifically. I just pull the seedlings I don't want. It is a very nice host plant, the leaves hold up much better than my Senna hebecarpa for raising caterpillars. Waiting til November is probably a good idea because then the frenzy will be over (I hope my tomatos ripen before frost; cross your fingers) and I will have been able to collect all my seed. Susan |

WTF – Japan Nose Air Filtration Systems
So, as many of you know, we were in Japan a couple of weekends ago on a project that we're constantly cryptic about. While we were there, we went to Tokyu Hands, which is this really bizarre store that sells a lot of different things. Stationery, stickers, phone stuff, pet stuff, party supplies, bags, travel stuff. It's like a gourmet Daiso without feeling like a dollar store. It's great! And so, while we were there, we picked up some lovely things for our WTF videos. Here's the first of a few.
I'm hoping somebody here has more experience with these things than we do. Has anybody used these with any degree of success? Our nose holes aren't made for this. Mine in particular can fit three sedans in them, so a tiny plug the size of an iris isn't going to do much more than waving a flag in the wind. Question, Japanese people: are your nose holesies smaller than our nose holesies? Or are we just freakish?
More interestingly though, is the prevalence of masks in Japan. Lots of people wear breathing masks there. We see them in Korea a bit, but in Tokyo we saw a lot, lot more. In fact, we even went to a shop that sold nothing but face masks. Martina bought one. All of the masks there had a whole bunch of designs, like moustaches or bears or cats or whatnot. They were all cute. What's smart about them as well is that there was a fitting room for the masks, so you can see how you look with them on. How so, you ask? Wouldn't that be gross to put on masks, like it would be to try on underwear? Simple: they had a Kinect machine. You picked the mask design, stood in front of the Kinect, and it showed your face on the screen with the mask on, so you could see if it matches your outfit and all. Cool!
But that's for more overt face masks. For something more subtle and not in (and on) everyone's faces, you can use these noseplugs. We spoke with a Nasty we met at Tokyu Hands (I hope you're reading this!) and she said that these were becoming more popular, which brings us back to the question of if anyone has used these before. We've tried and failed. What's your experience like? And what, umm, happens if you breathe through your mouth? Do they have mouthplugs as well? Because I'd imagine that might be a bit gross…
Another thing we've noticed about these things: I think they might be like Gremlins or that button from Drag Me to Hell, because these things are showing up everywhere. We only opened one package and used two of them, but we see them in the ground, find them in our pockets, find them in our bags. Who keeps doing this to us? Is it you, Leigh or Soo Zee, trying to creep us out? I don't understand! Someone save me from this madness!
Question: will 2PM do an ad for these as well? You're so beautiful, special nose. When I first smell you I fell in love with ya! Yep: it's happening people.
That's it for this week. We've got another video coming out tomorrow and maybe another one tonight if we have time to write the blog post for it. We need to find a bike today first, though. We just discovered a really nice path close to our home and we want to go biking and on picnics and stuff on our weekends now, and play cute music as Martina wears sweet dresses and we throw frisbees and wave to smiling people and all that other idyllic stuff. Commence rainbow puking! Point is, stay tuned to see when these videos come out by clicking on this pretty button below!

WTF Korea-
From the Japan TImes "For the extremely sensitive sufferers who are seeking a complete shutout of pollen, there is the Nose Mask Pit, which is sold for ¥651. The nose plugs are shaped like fingertip-sized swimming goggles with two plate-shaped parts inserted in each nostril." (http://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2014/03/22/lifestyle/hay-fever-nothing-to-sneeze-at/#.Uy6JNa2SxCM)
So basically these are not for sickness or anything, but to reduce (or eliminate) the amount of pollen you come into contact with, since hay fever is pretty bad here in Japan. Basically everyone has the allergy, and suffers every year from hay fever.
The last part Simon said: I died laughing. xD Good job Simon. Good Job.
SO I'm guessing they are the Japanese version of these (also there is a youtube video and it's on english):
http://www.nosefilters.com/ -
I hate to say this or be rude, but these two make America and Americans look bad through their style of what they consider to be a mature way of presenting themselves. Grow up please and act like adults. Be a bit more conservative in your appearance as well. I spent over four years in Japan and I respect the British/Australians/Canadians more so than most Americans, yet I am an American …
We make Americans look bad?
*tents fingers evilly*
Buahahaha! -
I understand that it's probably your intention to be helpful in some way, but this sort of criticism is hurtful and also has no bearing on the content of their videos. Simon and Martina's videos are always hilarious and respectful observations of Korean culture, and their (wonderful) sartorial choices don't change the nature of their posts. My suggestion to you is that you watch some more of their videos, so you can look beyond the clothes and the acting to better understand and enjoy them. And if, after that, you're still not convinced that their mannerisms are less important than the love they clearly have for Korea, life, and each other, then no one is forcing you to continue watching them.
FYI Simon and Martina are Canadians
Hmm I have sneaky idea of who wrote this blog, Simon…. I think that's just strange… It's more of the other meaning of WTF, not a wonderful treasure find. I hope you cannot fit three sedans in your nose, that'd be scary.
Ha! Yes, I did write this blog post. I wonder how many people can guess our writing styles…
I think the part of fitting three sedans up your nose gave you away, since you always talk about how big your nose is!!! ;-) I can tell who writes which blogs, nose comments = Simon and anything girly = Martina.
OFF TOPIC: I've been meaning to ask this: Martina where did you get your circle lenses??? (I know you're not wearing them here, but I've noticed that you wear them in other videos) thanksssss =^w^=
This is kind of off the topic of this odd product, but Martina, how did you make that hairstyle? It doesn't look like an ordinary ponytail (but if it is then oops :P); it looks really nice.
I see PM2.5 written on the box, which basically refers to pollution. I think I also recognize the word for pollen… so it is supposed to filter the air after all. The only thing though I guess is that you have to be careful not to breathe with your mouth lol
I wonder if they would fit in Ken's nose…
Simon and Martina, I love you EYK staff jackets. So cute. I won't comment much on what looks like a petri dish sample collecting object. Ewwwww.
Jajaja, it´s funny to see how sensitive you seem to be about ear wax and boogers :D
Lol where did you find this ??? Donki hote ? Daiso ??? That is so funny. Im going to JP for two weeks at the end of march and I think I will really try to find the weirdest thing and buy it for my coworkers XD. Japan always got some of the strangest things ever !
My best guess: the plugs are to prevent your nose from leaking while you are wearing a mask. I would assume it'd be hard to blow your nose while you're wearing a mask, so these would probably come in handy.
It's like a pore strip…for your nose. Ew. Freaky thing is, the underside of those look like coloured contacts. So when you showed them in your nose it was like….they were looking at me. Whelp I'mma have nightmares tonight! :D
LOLLLLLLL "I think they might be like Gremlins or that button from Drag Me to Hell, because these things are showing up everywhere." they're MULTIPLYINGGGGG!!!
but really, whose nostrils are perfect circles like that? :S I don't understand… -
I know they have sold those in the US as well. I have seen them on the show, "Shark Tank", when a guy was trying to invest his product with one of four world famous investors. Apparently this worked when the investors tried them.

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 Oreo!
Facts about Oreo
- Breed: Dalmatian/Labrador Retriever Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Oreo's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, not good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.
This is Oreo II. He is a lab/dalmatian (or possibly collier?) mix and is only 3 years old. He is already neutered. He can't wait to get out of his kennel and find a home to call his own!! He would do better in a home as an only dog. He has been with us almost 2 years and it's time for find him a home!!! If you want more information or would like to schedule a meet and greet, please contact us. He is shy at the beginning but if he bonds with you he will do great. He has been through so much wandering the streets of Homestead! Please consider spending some time making him gain trust the world again!
Other Pets at K-9 For Love Inc
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Oreo, a Miami Dalmatian/Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Dalmatian/Labrador Retriever for sale in Miami, or seeking a Dalmatian/Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Miami.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Miami 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 Miami 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 Dalmatian/Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Dalmatian/Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Miami paves the way for another one to be saved.

My thoughts
This collection of Christmas songs are sung by vocalist Robin Harper and accompanied by pianist Marvin Goldstein. Simply Christmas is simply that. Robin Harper has a strong voice and sings these songs beautifully with a jazzy style. Yet, it is missing something. I felt as though I was listening to a lounge singer on a cruise ship. She is a good vocalist but not Broadway sensational. Still an enjoyable holiday album.
The songs on this CD are:
The Christmas Song - (Everybody's Waitin' For) The Man With the Bag - Grown-Up Christmas List - Oh Little Town of Bethlehem - White Christmas - Santa Baby - Mary Did You Know?) - I Heard the Bells On Christmas Day - I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm - Silent Night - (Reprise) The Christmas Song
Product Description
Simply Christmas is a simple voice and piano recording. But there is nothing simple about it. Robin Harper recorded with Marvin Goldstein, Simply Christmas a beautiful collection of her favorite Christmas music. Robin has performed for many years. She has recorded albums of Christmas music with davElliott5 as well. But this is her first solo album.
Marvin Goldstein is a Pianist Extraordinaire. This album was made to just remember the simple beautiful sounds of the season with a jazzy twist. Buy our album to enjoy for year after year.
Disclosure: I received this CD for review. I received no compensation for my thoughts.

Quoted from Constantine Drive55, Now I'm able to improve the areas of my life the old jeremy missed out on, like finding a meaningful career and a better social life. Of course, everybody thinks my way of eating is crazy, but I don't care. If I stray from the B diet/lifestyle, my health starts going down the toilette. If not, I stay slim, never get sick, and look younger. That's good enough for me.
Quoted from TJ I'm an eNTp, but before this diet I thought I was an iNFp!

DIGITAL digest
December 2008BOCA RATON, FL—Just prior to Graph Expo 2008, Océ North America, Production Printing Systems, invited industry journalists and analysts down to its Florida facilities for a tour of the newly opened Customer Experience Center and to get a company update. Mal Baboyian, president, commented that the center was an example of the strategic investments the company planned to continue making, despite the challenging business climate.
"You can't stand still, even in a down economic time," Baboyian said. He explained that Océ will have three areas of focus going forward—development and innovation within its core business, extension of its reach into new markets and expansion of market coverage. Digital book printing is one of the hottest opportunities and is transforming the industry, added the company exec.
Display areas in the center cover the company's entire product line, from electrophotographic (EP) and ink-jet document printing systems to wide-format ink-jet printers and software.
A new MICR ink option via a fifth DigiDot head, set for delivery in early 2009, and multi-level printing with variable dot sizes were already being demonstrated on the center's high-speed JetStream color ink-jet press. Three models—JetStream 750, 1500 and 3000—were added to the product family at Drupa, boosting the line's top speed to 2,865 ipm (letter-sized).
At that time, the company was still on track to deliver the first ColorStream 10000 color electrophotographic presses before the end of the year, Baboyian noted. Rated at a maximum 172 ipm in color, this model offers a higher image quality and is intended for graphic arts applications.
During the event, it was announced that Strahm Automation and Mailing Services in Kansas City, MO, had agreed to acquire a ColorStream 10000 to streamline its operations by getting away from warehousing pre-printed color shells for the production of statements, invoices and customer correspondence.
Also in the offing is a new Graphic Arts Alliance Program intended to help offset printers' transitions to digital services and to help existing digital shops sell better. Current Océ customers are taking part in the development of the program, which is expected to provide members with online resources, regional seminars and a customer advisory council.
TransPromo Application Development Services (TADS) is another component of Océ's professional services. The manufacturer is working in partnership with NEPS LLC and Art Plus Technology to assist customers with the development and execution of transpromo programs.
Wide-format printing solutions for display graphics and technical/CAD applications have their own display room within the Customer Experience Center. New to the product line is the Arizona 350 GT UV flatbed printer that features support for white ink and a top print speed of 239 square feet/hr. on rigid media (up to 49x98? and 1.89? thick) and 205 square feet/hr. using the roll-to-roll media (87? wide) option.
It features VariaDot technology, which varies dot sizes from 6 to 42 picoliters for sharp image detail and smooth solids.
Also on display was the 42? ColorWave 600 color printer introduced this past summer. It is the first device to use the company's CrystalPoint technology, which jets dry toner contained in solid TonerPearls via a phase-change process. (For more details, see page 54 in the August 2008 edition of Printing Impressions.)
The timing of the event enabled Océ to preview several of the announcements it planned to make at Graph Expo, including:
• Launch of the VarioPrint 4000 monochrome cut-sheet printer line, which is targeted to mid-volume environments and as a backup machine for shops with a VP 6000 model. Kicking off the series is the 120 ppm VP 4120 model.
• Introduction of the CS665 cut-sheet color printer as a replacement for the CS650 Pro and CS620, starting in early 2009. It outputs 65 ppm using polymerized toner and features a controlled environment with dehumidification, air separation and double-sheet detector in the paper drawer for more reliable operation.
• Release of upgrades to the PRISMA workflow solution, including Device Manager for optimization of print production in real-time, TrueProof soft proofing version 3.2 with support for variable data, PRISMA- access online print management for internal job submission, and PRISMAweb version 5 with a revamped interface and efficiency enhancements.
Business Climate on The Agenda For Dscoop4
CHICAGO—Joe Theismann, former MVP quarterback in the NFL and now a broadcaster, will be the keynote speaker at the Digital Solutions Cooperative's (Dscoop) upcoming Dscoop4 Annual Conference. The event will take place February 19 to 21 at the Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center in Orlando.
Dscoop is a user-driven community of HP Indigo press owners and operators. Vyomesh "VJ" Joshi, HP's executive vice president, Imaging and Printing, will also be a featured speaker.
The overall focus of the conference will be to help attendees navigate in a time of economic uncertainty, declining marketing budgets and tougher competition. Topics of the in-depth educational sessions will include financial ROI, emerging technologies such as Website optimization and using Google Analytics, green initiatives and marketing strategy. There will also be technical and label/packaging tracks.
In addition, attendees will be able to see the latest technology from HP and its partner providers in a products and services showcase.
Further details and online registration for the conference are available at www.dscoop4.org.

PALO ALTO, CA—HP has opened a distribution center for HP Indigo presses in nearby Hayward. Initially, it will provide faster delivery of spare parts to the Western region of the United States and Canada.
HOUSTON—Since entering the photo products market in 2005, Consolidated Graphics has built up a fleet of more than 30 Kodak Nexpress digital color presses with the recent addition of several S3000 models. These new devices will enhance its operations in Prague, the Czech Republic and the United States.
SUSSEX, WI—La Crosse Litho Supply has introduced a new process to assist customers with implementing the G7 printing process controls. ColorLink QMS (Quality Management System) is said to enable printers to perform press tests on live work for real-time analysis of color consistency, accuracy and adherence to the G7 specification.

Following the formulae that made Unreal Tournament so great the third installment to the series has hit us recently with better than ever graphics. The games uses the latest Unreal Engine which like most modern day games when maxed out puts the pressure on our lineup of graphics cards.
Checking out UT3, we see the card continues to be slow and sit at around half the speed of the 9500 GT.

Alumni from Leadership Utah gathered Tuesday with employees of the Salt Lake Chamber to participate in the Road Home's annual clothing and fundraising drive. While Leadership Utah has participated in the fundraiser for the past six years, this year's participation was bolstered by providing hygiene kits for Utah's homeless population.
"It's amazing to think about how important such basic things can be to people who have the misfortune of being homeless," said alumnus Donald Murray, an executive with United Health Care.
Kits contained the essential items for homeless individuals to maintain personal hygiene, including combs, toothbrushes and toothpaste, soap, and new hand towels.
Leadership Utah also stationed alumni at the Salt Lake shelter of the Road Home to help with the intake, organization and storage of donations given by Valley residents during the drive.
"It's a good thing," said Murray. "It's a very exciting project and something we're very happy to be a part of every year."
Designed by the Salt Lake Chamber, Leadership Utah is a program intended to provide opportunities for business leaders to learn more about the challenges facing the community. In its 24-year history, Leadership Utah has graduated more than 1,000 participants – all of whom are dedicated to making an impact on their community.

I got this plant from a group of four in a pot/bog of death I bought at a BBS. It's so terribly etiolated. What should I do with the poor dear? Chop it's head off? Leave it be until Spring?

Erin, Chop and slowly introduce both to increasing sun until full or nearly so. Do it now. As you've no doubt guess, you don't want to handle the leaves. The marks aren't anything but disfiguring, and the plant will, of course, grow out of the handling marks by getting rid of the leaves. Farinaceous leaves can be the bane of one's existence. Try smudging up a mature Echeveria lilicina (this was nearly a foot wide) and you'll really hear the shouting..... |

Calculators | Utilities | Archive |
These energy saving shutdown utilities are part of the JSutils group of software and were originally designed as part of a practical home energy saving project to save energy and money by reducing computer electricity use. They are free for personal non commercial use, support WIndows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, come complete with html help and are simple to install and use. For commercial licence information see the commercial licence page. The last versions of programs that are no longer current which support Windows 2000 can be found in the utilities archive.
Not sure which shutdown utility you need or want to compare product features? Try the shutdown utility product selector.
AllOff is a computer activity and shutdown utility which monitors the mouse, keyboard, CPU load, download and process activity and initiates computer shutdown if there has been no activity for the set times. It supports fixed activation and shutdown initiation times plus a fixed delay before shutdown initiation. There is also an optional fixed delay before shutdown to allow shutdown to be cancelled. Programs can be run on activation and shutdown initiation. AllOff supports all the normal shut down modes plus log off and monitor. It can also be used to control a remote computer via a slave program including remote activation of the slave. What is monitored, how the computer shuts down plus many other parameters can be changed from the configuration screen. See AllOff history for details of the changes in this version.
AllOff Lite is an activity monitor and shutdown utility which monitors the mouse, keyboard and CPU load and initiates computer power off if there has been no keyboard or mouse activity for 900 seconds and the average CPU load has been below 15% for over 60 seconds. A fixed shutdown time or fixed shutdown delay can also be set which will override CPU and Keyboard/Mouse activity detection or they can be used on their own. Designed to be simple to install and use AllOff Lite requires no configuration apart from selecting whether fixed time shutdown and/or activity monitoring are required during installation. AllOff Lite is suitable for most applications. It can be started at a fixed time, a command line, on start up or manually. See AllOff Lite history for details of the changes in this version.
LANOff is a network monitor and shutdown utility which monitors up to four remote computers from a client computer and optionally shuts down the client and specified remote computers when the network fails or the specified computer shuts down. It also supports fixed activation and shutdown initiation times plus a fixed delay before shutdown initiation. Various parameters can be set via the configuration screen. LANOff was designed to be used in conjunction with AllOff or ProcOff to enable a backup server to be shut down automatically once several computers on a local network had completed their backups. It can also be used on it's own. LANOff supports all the normal shut down modes. The program operates by interrogating each remote computer via a small slave program once a second. Up to four remote computers can be monitored or controlled with shutdown being initiated when connection to all computers is lost. Uses of LANOff include monitoring up to four computers connected to a server shutting down the server when it is no longer needed or shutting down up to four computers connected to a server when the server shuts down. It can be started at a fixed time, from a command line, on start up or manually. See LANOff history for details of the changes in this version.

I'm an art student and closet foodie. I spent three years working as the chef of a British style tea room, as well as living in Scotland for two years. I've visited Spain and Morocco- and I've lived and worked among International students, so my tastes are more eclectic than the average American. I like to try to duplicate authentic ethnic dishes- although I'm not limited to that. The best compliment I've ever received was when my Indian friend commented that my curry tasted just like something his mom used to make.
Now I'm a new mom, so although I used to have time to prepare fantastic and complicated dishes- these days I'm looking to make dishes with the same punch in less time. Once my daughter is old enough to eat table foods, I may be posting more kid-friendly ethnic dishes. :)
Pad Thai, Creme Brulee, Tamales, Cafe au Lait, Tea, Arbroath "Smokies", Scones, Moroccan Tagine, any type of curry, mangoes, sushi, and many other fantastic ethnic dishes.

Cindy Morgan: Yori & Tron reunite (Bruce Boxleitner interview-bombs Cindy Morgan)
The interview is available in MP4 (video) and MP3 (audio only) formats, both at the bottom of this page.
Cindy Morgan has had a diverse career. She's been a weather girl on TV and her own sound engineer working autonomously in a Chicago radio station before moving to LA and landing THAT role in Caddyshack. Although she starred in the original Tron movie, through no choice of her own Cindy didn't appear in Tron: Legacy, and deeply appreciates the fans who lobbied to bring her back. In this interview Cindy talks about her career, her deep appreciation of her fans and her upcoming book.
Oh, yes, and Bruce Boxleitner interview bombs. You've heard of photo bombing? Bruce takes this to a new level, bombing this interview. Bruce and Cindy together are like an old married couple on a sit com; they are hilarious. I caught the action in this video, before we returned to 'your regularly scheduled interview', while Bruce wandered off to be interviewed by someone else. I'm sure Bruce would have been busy already IF HE HADN'T ARRIVED LATE [pointed look] I caught up with Bruce at lunch time before he managed to escape, so his interview will go up later this evening.
UPDATE: Bruce Boxleitner's interview is up as is his panel on Babylon 5.

Baby Quotes, Sayings about babies
I hate that when women who had an abortion have a kid later. And the kid turns out to b a brat. Your original baby could have been an angel but he/she is one now.
People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one.
– Leo J. Burke
A baby makes love stronger, the days shorter, the nights longer, savings smaller and a home happier.
A baby fills a place in your heart that you never knew was empty.
Having my baby fall asleep in my arms takes away all of my worries and stresses. A sense of complete and total peace comes over me.
– Maria Jose Ovalle.
A baby is a blessing. A gift from heaven above, a precious little angel to cherish and to love.
When you become a mother, you stop being the picture and start being the frame.
A baby needs love in order to achieve what is ahead of them.
A kiss is strong love for the baby.
The words "I love you" and a little hug from a child is a piece of heaven.
Every child is a gift from God.
Does absence make the heart grow fonder. Or more comfortable with the absence ?
I never knew how much love my heart could hold until someone called me Mom.
No matter how old or how bad a** you think you are, when a toddler hands you their ringing toy phone, you answer it!!
Words "I love you mommy", kisses and hug from my baby is the sweetest memory.
Babies are the most priceless gift from God and as a parent, I am proud and lucky to have one.
My heart melts when my grandchildren tell me "You are the most beautiful grandma in the world", and laugh when they say "O grandma you are so old at fifty".
When I first saw her, I cry with her.
When I first hold her in my arms, I rest with her.
But when she hold mi index finger with her whole hand, I just got crumble.
(this was something I wanted to share to all)
A Mexican dad.
It takes a man to be a father, a women to be a mother, and a child to make a family.
Taking care of a baby is the most important work anyone does in life.
Any parents will agree they would be lost without their babies.
If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite, something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go far to find it. I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more eternal than the ocean in the expression of the eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs because it sees the sun shining on its cradle.
When a baby smiles at you he is thinking I'm gonna have the best life ever with my mommy/daddy.
Every baby comes with the message that God has not yet discouraged us.
Babies are the true and precious gift of God. Because there are no difference between a baby and God.
New born baby is like a fresh wall. Whichever color will be applied on it, it will give an impression accordingly. Choice is ours.
Strange how things change, you never think it'll happen to you. How a smile can melt your heart, make it all worth it, and how somehow you know, that no matter what, it'll be worth it.

What are the points used for and how do I use them? How do I get more of them?
What are "points" as seen under our avatars?

No one? we all use the forums and no one knows why we are tracking "points" or how they accumulate?

It looks like 10 points for starting your first post in a forum, and 5 for commenting on a topic once.

Awesome thank you, is it just a tracking system then?

The points are suppose to be used for a raffle at the end of each month. But it sounds like its not running right now.

that's really sad. They should at least remove the raffle commercials then. Isn't there any official moderator giving any statements about that? A Community manager? There has to be one!

Story Surfer is an alternative search engine, where children are able to search the library materials via an interactive floor and table. Story Surfer is not designed as a traditional search engine, where you must tell precisely what you are interested in, but as an inspirational tool in relation to loans of various physical materials. The prototype consists of an interactive floor and table. The display in the floor is formed by two projectors mounted above the floor, while the display in the table is generated by a built-in projector where the image is displayed on the underside of a specially designed tabletop.
Libraries are increasingly starting to use RFID tags to replace bar codes on materials. The Bib-Phone concept is based on the use of RFID tags in library books. The idea is to combine a wireless mini-computer with with an RFID reader, microphone and speaker. This makes it possible to record and listen to messages, such as book reviews. The concept was tested on two occasions in 2006 at Silkeborg Public Library and at the main library of Aarhus.
MIXIS - Mixed Interaction Space (mobile-based spatial interaction) is a new approach to gesture-based interaction on mobile devices. A mobile phone camera is used to track a fixed point and thus to establish a 3D interaction space where the device's position and rotation can be tracked. The fixed point is selected by the user - it provides a flexible basis for establishing the interaction as well as the concrete and symbolic mixture of the physical and digital space.

ST. PETERSBURG — So what should have happened on the final play Saturday? Manager John Farrell explained why the Red Sox didn't have someone covering second base in time to receive Andrew Miller's inaccurate throw to the bag.
Jonathan Herrera was closer to the base when the pitch was delivered, but it was Dustin Pedroia racing over to try to nab Miller's throw.
"Herrera has coverage," Farrell said. "Where he has to come off of that is if that hop goes over Miller — he's got to come in and charge that ball. So the fact is Miller makes a good play where he jumps, but that leaves Herrera a little bit in no-man's land. By the time Pedey read the play and adjusted to become the coverage guy, the throw's already going past second base."
Miller saw there was a problem right as he was releasing the ball.
"At the last second, I didn't have a play. I didn't have anybody getting to the bag," he said Saturday. "I didn't have time to hold onto the ball. Just should have been able to hold onto the ball and get an out somewhere."
