Looking Ahead to Iowa's Pheasant Season
Posted: 10/23/2012
Upland game hunters have a good reason to step out into the fields this weekend across Iowa. Pheasant numbers are up, for the first time in seven years.
Give credit to the mild winter and relatively warm, dry spring for the rebound. Annual roadside counts this past August showed an average of eight birds per 30-mile route. That's up from a record low 6.8 birds last year, breaking a string of declines that stretches back to 2005.
Though modest, the increase does nudge populations in the right direction.
"Our harvest should be slightly better than last year. Hunters should take approximately 125,000-200,000 roosters this fall," forecasts Todd Bogenschutz, DNR upland research biologist. Bogenschutz points to higher counts in Iowa's north central and northwest counties; up 35 percent and 58 percent, respectively. Central Iowa saw a bounce of 12 percent.
Iowa's pheasant season runs from October 27 through January 10.
With the fall crop harvest basically complete, hunters may concentrate on remaining cover to find birds; CRP acres, grassy waterways and shelterbelts. That's especially true as more winter-like weather moves in.
"If you can find those areas on private land, they should have birds around them," suggests Bogenschutz. "Public land is important, too. Our wildlife area complexes in north central and northwest Iowa are designed with pretty good winter and nesting cover. That's been the key to where bird numbers have been the last couple years."
Also available this year is 7,000 acres of private land in 41 counties; to be utilized for public hunting through Iowa's Hunting and Access Program (IHAP).
Still, Bogenschutz acknowledges ringneck numbers remain well below where hunters, and wildlife officials, want to see them. With 1.6 million Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) acres on the ground, Iowa could support a harvest of 600,000 to 800,000 pheasants, IF good weather continues.
"It took five years for Mother Nature to knock us down. We had one good year. I think we need about two more years; getting more hens through the winter and building on that," advises Bogenschutz.
This year's roadside survey did show a nine percent increase in the number of hen pheasants counted, over 2011. The chicks per brood—a measure of survival of young pheasants—was up 13 percent.
Hunters may even see a bit of a bonus, brought on by bone-dry summer weather. Those surveys are best run with heavy dew saturating the vegetation. Hens bring those broods out to the roadway to dry off, in the early morning. With little dew on many August
routes, hunters may see a few more birds than anticipated as they take to the fields over the coming weeks.

Today I had a chance to preview the Bruce Springsteen exhibition that's opening on Friday, Feb 17 at the National Constitution Center. It's kind of odd in a way, to see a rock star's name hanging in the front of that dramatic building at 5th and Arch and to hear "Trapped" by Springsteen coming out of the speakers as I approached the doors. But this is a very vital, modern venue with free thinkers like the ones that wrote our constitution to begin with. The Center's motto these days is "Freedom is Calling." Well, it's calling our name because this exhibition is all about rock 'n roll and the freedom to express ourselves through it.
What better artist to represent freedom, rock 'n roll, and expression than Bruuuuuuce?
Any fan will enjoy being transported through the life and artifacts of one Bruce Springsteen. I especially enjoyed hearing his early audition tapes, watching him play piano in a video, and seeing the Oscar he won for Best Original Song ("Streets of Philadelphia" that opened the film "Philadelphia").
You may have seen this exhibition in Cleveland when it ran there for two years 2009-11. Philly is the first town to get it since that original, successful run. It's not known whether it will travel anywhere else.
When Bruce played the Grammys the other night, he needed a guitar for his performance that was already on display here in town. Part of his agreement is that anything he might need during the run of this show, he can have. He never ended up playing the guitar he borrowed on the Grammys, and it was returned yesterday in time for the opening tomorrow.
And speaking of the Grammys, photographer Danny Clinch has worked with Springsteen multiple times and many of his photos are featured in this exhibit. I was able to meet him backstage at the Grammys because for the past few years, Clinch has been the one that makes the official Grammy portraits of all the winners, one at a time. There he was with his hat, lots of props for the shoot, and a good sense of humor.
Did Bruce attend the exhibition when it was up in Cleveland? Only once according to the Constitution Center's Public Relations Manager, Lauren A. Saul. Apparently he came incognito on the last day. Well, he's coming to Philly March 28 & 29 to play with his E Street Band at the Wells Fargo Center. Will he stop in to see the exhibition during his visit here? Nobody knows.
The exhibition runs February 17 though September 3, 2012. To find out more, visit the National Constitution Center's website.

Kevin Kane and Jay Cutler have one similarity; both were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes later in life.

When it comes to the medical community, sometimes I feel alone in dealing with my diabetes. I feel like we are often left to be our own doctor and to figure things out by ourselves when blood sugars run high or low, or when illness strikes. It really upsets me. The nurse on the phone was giving me instructions for an upcoming surgery, and she told me that I should refrain from taking any insulin the morning of my scheduled surgery.

To a casual observer, Dr. Nat Strand might look like an over-achiever. After all, she and her partner won Season 17 of her favorite television show, "The Amazing Race." Winning the race opened her world up to the diabetes community, which, interestingly enough, inspired her to take better care of herself. Her mission now is to encourage everyone with diabetes to connect with the diabetes community and benefit from knowing others who understand the daily challenges of managing type 1 diabetes. When I caught up with Dr. Strand, we began by talking about what drove her to enter the Amazing Race.

As we approach the summer season, our thoughts turn to barbecues, picnics, amusement parks, and road trips to the beach. It is a season of fun, but it can be hard for people with diabetes to enjoy the festivities and still maintain healthy eating habits.

As a woman with diabetes, you may have noticed that you face unique challenges, from where to place your insulin pump, to pregnancy, to hormone fluctuations. Many diabetes books offer general diabetes advice, but few focus on women beyond just a short chapter. That is, until now.

How many times has this happened to you? You're driving somewhere and something feels off. You suspect that your blood sugar level may be dropping, but you plow ahead. Now, imagine your car sounding the alarm: "Attention: This is your car speaking. Your blood sugar is low. Pull over and eat a snack."

I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes on June 25, 2009. At the time, I was a few weeks shy of my nineteenth birthday and had just finished my first year of college at the State University of New York at New Paltz.

Meet Mary,* a 16-year-old girl with type 1 diabetes. When her parents ask her how her blood sugar is, she always has a good number. She keeps a tidy logbook of her blood sugars, and they look fine, although her last A1C was inexplicably high. It's been a long time since she was diagnosed, and her parents are confident that she knows how to care for herself. She has been somewhat less energetic for quite awhile, but her parents attribute that to growing pains, as Mary has grown from a chubby child into a very slender young woman. She appears a little dehydrated and flushed sometimes, but she always drinks a lot of water and goes to the bathroom frequently, so her parents aren't concerned. They have also noted a fruity odor about her, which she attributes to a new lip gloss.

A new study says that people who consume a "moderate" amount of candy per day have a slightly lower body mass index than people who don't eat candy. They also run a 15 percent lower risk than the general population of developing metabolic syndrome, the cluster of conditions that is often a precursor to type 2 diabetes.

Canadian scientists have found that nobiletin, a substance found in high concentrations in tangerines, thwarted obesity and the onset of diabetes in lab mice. The researchers at the University of Western Ontario fed the mice a high-sugar, high-fat diet that mimicked the diet of many people in Western societies. One group of animals became obese, developing fatty livers and elevated levels of cholesterol and insulin-typical precursors to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. But a second group of mice, given the flavonoid nobiletin, did not develop the symptoms of the first group. The nobiletin prevented fatty buildup in the liver by blocking the genes that control the production of fat.

- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Miami Beach 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 Beach 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 Domestic Mediumhair breeders who help with Domestic Mediumhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Miami Beach paves the way for another one to be saved.

Hello everyone. As known samsung S3C6410 processor which is used in Spica I5700 supports OpenGL ES 1.1 and 2.0, but didn't include any proper OpenGL ES 1.0 implementation.That's why some games don't run smoothly and have many lags (for example games developed by Polarbit - Wave Blazer, Raging Thunder etc). Does somebody knows where to get drivers for OpenGL ES 3D v1? And another question - how to activate multitouch? I have firmare 2.1, but without multitouch( according to google - display supports multitouch technology. Thx a lot for answers, sorry for my english.

Jim Edmondson has directed a production of King Lear that is an unqualified triumph. A very complex play is made completely understandable. The pace of the action is gripping from start to finish. The incomparably rich language comes through with utmost clarity, which is underscored by the spare staging.
Jonathan Dalys portrayal of Lear is extraordinary. It is difficult to decide which aspect of his character is most effective: the main enraged lover of flattery who disowns his beloved youngest daughter Cordelia; the mad man who nevertheless understands quite well how the world works; or the redeemed man of wisdom (my favorite) who is reconciled with Cordelia in genuine humility. All are convincing. The first storm scene, being concerned for the Fool, brings Lear the revelation that throughout his reign he had never taken sufficient care of the poor. (Too bad our own politicians couldnt have a like experience.)
Christopher Gersons loving, afflicted (cerebral palsy?) Fool demands special recognition. From the first scene it is clear there is a special bond between the Fool and Cordelia, played by Stephanie Lambourn. Neither desert Lear even in the most extreme circumstances. The Fool pushes Lear to the madness that restores his true sanity.
Gloucesters bastard son, Edmund, played by Andrew Carlson, is a thoroughly charming villain, who is always amused at his ability to manipulate people for his own advantage. Whatever else may be said against him, he is definitely not a sore loser. Doug Scholz-Carlson, Gloucesters legitimate son, Edgar, has a more difficult role. He plays at least four different voices, the most startling of which is Poor Tom, the Bedlam beggar. His beggar is an equal mix of pathetic wretch and dangerous physicality.
Michael Fitzpatricks Gloucester, a superstitious man of the world, who yet has enough substance to be redeemable, is played with the strength weve become accustomed to from Fitzpatrick.
Goneril and Regan, played convincingly by Tarah Flanagan and Kim McKean, are a combination of rationalistic self-interest and animal sexuality. Both see their natural mate in Edmund, the bastard. Flanagan is the more intellectual, cool-headed figure of evil, while McKean is reminiscent of women in recent TV action dramas in her execution of physical violence.
Lears dedicated servant Kent, played forcefully by Chris Mixon, provides a stark contrast to Gonerils steward Oswald. While both are faithful servants, their loyalty is quite different. Although Oswald cannot be bought, despite Regans trying hard to do so, he merely panders to all of Gonerils desires. On the other hand, Kent corrects Lear when needed, even at the risk of his own life. He is the just servant concerned about the true well being of his master.
If a person is interested in the human condition, and who isnt, he or she should not miss this production of King Lear. Among many other lessons it shows that without a doubt total self-interest inevitably results in self-destruction. While the play contains egregious suffering and violence, it would not be wrong to term Lears final condition as blissful. Death is inevitable, but what awareness accompanies that experience. The look on his face at his final utterance, Look there, look there!, is almost ecstatic. It is as if he were being reunited with Cordelia beyond this world.

Aug 6th 2009 8:35PM So I guess the "renewed" ghoul whenever my DK dismounts or uses a portal is "working as intended"? C'mon, that's pretty annoying and made me lose a few ores already (the ghoul is summoned automatically after I dismount and before I mine, and then someone else gets the node).
Meh. =(
Patch 3.2 In-Game fixes for Wednesday August 5th {WoW}
Aug 6th 2009 12:41AM One thing that has annoyed me like hell is: whenever my DK dismounts, arrives at a FP destination or take a portal, he summons a new ghoul - even though I have specced it to be a permaghoul (plus glyph for no reagent). It's specially irritating when I dismount in PVP or when I'm mining ores.
And I really would like to think that Unholy Blight is "bugged" too. Oh well. =/

I got a flat last week. Rear-tire. I think it was actually a relapse of a previous pinch-flat — the patch may have just not been enough.
So I swung by Ike's Bikes (who are AWESOME), and they replaced my tube, repaired the kickstand (it was loose), and equalize the pressure on my tires to 85 psi (comfort? who needs it!).
While I was there, I had remembered that I had been meaning to pick up a bike lock. I frequently have to run errands around town to pick something up here or there, and everytime I go out I always wish that I had a lock so I could take my bike. Not that Richmond is terribly crime-ridden — but I'm just looking to protect my $450 investment from a grab-n-dash hoodlum. Continue reading

A few weeks backs I had posted looking for information on the Miele Heat pump dryer and had very helpful answers. This weekend when we finally got around to the Miele gallery to buy the W/D we were introduced to the Little Giants. The salesperson was pushing the product and even offered a discount and says that this product is being launched into the Gulf market. From this thread it seems it has already been launched in the US a while back. I would be very grateful for any feedback on these machines regarding energy consumption, as we were told that these machines (Little giants) are not rated for energy consumption as they are commercial models.
We are considering this set against the Miele washer 5964 8kg and 8966 heatpump dryer. I'm not after the heat pump, I'm after the 8kg capacity without the heat pump which Miele does not sell in Dubai. The 8 kgs washer has more options compared to the 7 kgs washer including steam freshening, so I was also wondering if it was worth going after the 8kgs set for the extra space and extra options as against the 7kgs washer dryer combo. Also, the Little giant set is 6.5 kgs, slightly smaller than the 7kgs one. So then there are 3 sets we are looking at, the 6.5 Professional, the 7kgs set, and the 8kgs heat pump dryer and matching washer. The 7 kgs is the cheapest at 3500 USD, the Little G with 5% discount and heat pump set are both 5500 USD. Will be very grateful for any input. |

8 kilo is the rated capacity for the residential models. Doesn't mean one should force eight kilos in there, though. I mean, yeah, you can put that much laundry in these washers but it'll take 2:59 hrs. for a wash to complete. That is because Miele, like all European manufacturers, overstate the capacity of their laundry machines to remain competitive on the market that wants washers and dryers with higher load capacities. In the REAL WORLD, I think, both your washer choices have the same size drum in them. The Little Giant dryer has a roughly 20% larger drum than the residential models. Alex |

I'm trying to learn to use "Fitday" but don't see anything about Splenda. Is it a special food? There's 0% about nutrition on the back of the bag so what do I put down on my fitday chart when I have a spoonful? Thanks for your time and have a very nice evening. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Heidiho, I use fitday and love it! Splenda has no nutritional value, calories, carbs etc... at all so I don't bother entering it. Tikanas |
Thanks guess I'll do the same. |
I used it as a special food entry and it gave me the following for 1 cup Splenda Granular------Calories 192, Fat 0, Carbs 48, Protein 0. If you were just using one little packet, say in your coffee, if probably isn't enough to bother with but I use large amounts (1/4 to 1 cup) in cheesecakes, pies, breads, etc. so the calories and carbs do count. It is the filler added that makes the difference in carbs and calories between granular and the liquid splenda which I can't find. Some people substitute Sugar Free DaVinci syrups which are sweetened with Splenda to cut carbs and calories. Susy |
Thanks for the info Susy. I felt better not knowing this but it's something I really needed to know. No wonder I haven't been doing so well on my "so called" 1500 diet. lol! Have a nice weekend. |
I never thought about using it in "mass quantities" but what you say makes sense, Susy. Tikanas |
- Posted by Wild_Chicken (My Page) on Sat, Oct 9, 04 at 9:40
1 cup of Splenda granular has 96 calories and 24 grams of carbs, this according to Splenda's official website. I've attached the link. I've noticed that FitDay nutritional totals are from little to a LOT "off" many times whne comparing them to the actual package nutritional information. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Splenda nutritional info
Boy, FitDay really has it high!! I have heard that before. I like the site to put in what I eat each day, to plug in recipes to get the nutritional info. We are doing Protein Power and helps to keep track of carbs and protein, the main things I watch on this WOE. I was entering ingredients in this morning for Sugar Free Pumpkin Pie. I used the info off of the can of pumpkin which said 50 calories for 1/2 cup. FitDay told me it should be about 28 calories, so that is the number I used. Now that is a lot of difference. But since I am using the site for other things will go with their numbers and make allowances at the end of the day when I know it is off--as with the Splenda. Thanks for the info--------- Susy |

★ 1/2
Lurching back and forth from uninspired slapstick to maudlin sentimentality, the almost-entirely unfunny "Tammy" is as directionless as the road trip it offers instead of a plot.
After totaling her car, being fired from her fast-food job and discovering that her husband has been cheating on her, Tammy (Melissa McCarthy) decides to leave town but realizes she has no car and no money.
Her grandma Pearl (Susan Sarandon, nearly 25 years after a similar, but much more memorable outing in "Thelma & Louise") has an old Cadillac and a bankroll, though, and offers them both if Tammy will take her along for the ride.
Their supposed destination is Niagara Falls, but being in the car together is really just an excuse for the contentious, ignorant, boastful, generally obnoxious yet woefully put-upon Tammy and the randy, alcoholic Pearl to get on each other's nerves and move from one misadventure to another.
"Tammy" is the first movie McCarthy has made under her own auspices, capitalizing on her increasing popularity after her breakout role in "Bridesmaids" a few years back. She co-wrote the film with her husband, actor Ben Falcone, who also directs for the first time here (in addition to playing the weaselly boss who fires her). So it's strange and disappointing that it makes less use of her skills and considerable appeal than any of the other films that have featured her so far.
McCarthy's plus-sized characters are typically brash and brazen with a suggestion of insecurity underneath, but "Tammy" works hard to make its namesake seem pathetic when it's not making her the butt of its jokes.
Whether she's crashing a jet ski into a dock (and having to pay for it) or making a mess of a fast-food faux armed robbery (and being unable to pass up some fried pies) or spending a night in jail with drunk-and-disorderly Pearl, Tammy seems at least as depressed as she is defiant. That makes it very hard to laugh at her. And it doesn't help that she and Pearl periodically dredge up old emotional traumas to milk for tears.
It does help that McCarthy is as likeable and naturally funny as usual, though, oddly, she doesn't seem to have been improvising as much here as she has in the past, often hilariously. But it's difficult for her personal charm to work its way through all the contrivances and bogusness.
Maybe the next time she sets out on her own, she'll have a clearer idea of where she wants to go.

NMR / MRI and porous (bio)systems |
| Wageningen functional NMR/MRI group Group leader: Dr. Henk Van As, Scientific Director of the Wageningen NMR Centre The research focuses on the development, application and interpretation of NMR, MRI and NMR Microscopy techniques to unravel transport processes in porous (bio)systems like
Pioneering work in this area has led to a number of results, demonstrating that the group was the first to apply NMR for water balance studies on intact plants (Reinders et al, 1988). In addition, an unique "portable" NMR spectrometer (bioflow meter) has been realised (Van As et al, 1994). The group has highly contributed on developing novel experimental NMR techniques to measure and interpret physical parameters such as relaxation times, (self)diffusion coefficient and flow in relation to (cell) water balance, cell compartmentation, membrane permeability and porosity. In combination with NMR microscopy the group has entered the fascinating area of functional imaging of intact plants, plant like materials, agricultural products and porous bio-systems. The group participates in the Graduate Schools "Experimental Plant Sciences" (EPS) and in the Wageningen NMR Center (WNMRC). The WNMRC is a Research Infrastructure for different applications of bio-NMR. The WNMRC can give access to European Researchers financially supported by the EC. Related projects are currently running under the EU Research Infrastructure terms. |

DNS problem
This really is not an Apache problem.
You do this by editing your entries with your domain name registry.
ie. mydomain.com points to IP: 18.104.22.168
www.mydomain.com points to mydomain.com
So you can access your page either by typing mydomain.com or www.mydomain.com

The big day arrived last Saturday for City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer (D-Sunnyside), above center, and Dan Hendrick, spokesman for the New York League of Conservation Voters and a former Queens Chronicle editor-in-chief. After more than 13 years together, the couple was married at Studio Square in Long Island City.
The ceremony was performed by County Clerk Audrey Pheffer. Among the approximately 200 people in attendance was Chronicle Publisher Mark Weidler and his wife, Kim, friends of both men and strong supporters of same-sex marriage.
Hendrick and Van Bramer had decided long ago against getting married in any of the states that legalized gay weddings before New York, wanting to take their vows in their home community of Queens. They issued this joint statement through Van Bramer's office on Monday:
"We are overjoyed that so many family and friends witnessed our wedding Saturday night. For over 13 years we have been in a committed and loving relationship, yet before marriage equality passed last year, we were denied the right to marry one another.
"At this time, we are grateful for our loving families, friends, and the numerous neighbors, constituents and even complete strangers who wished us well on our union.
"Our happiness at having fulfilled our dream of getting married knows no bounds. We are grateful to live in a state and city that recognize that we are equal and should not be discriminated against. And we'll redouble our efforts to make sure that all Americans can get married to the one they love."

Couple days ago, I read a post by Marie (see, I do read your comments and visit your blog back if you ever left a link to me. about how she "got confused by buying luxury brand designer shoes, because most of the time, they are just sleeping in their dustbag and being comfy in the shoe rack". Tell you what, Marie! Sometimes I have the same question, too.
I mean, while we walk on the high street brand shoes most of the time, why do we spend a lot more money for those "brandy" shoes. I remember one of my friends once answering that question this way: " I am really happy by just looking at them on the shoe rack everyday." Doesn't it sound like what Carrie said in the movie Sex and the City? "I like my money where I can see it, hanging in my closet."
I don't think I am a material girl, but just maybe a little shopaholic sometimes, After decades of shopping experience, I still can't find the answer for why do we spend so much money buying those luxury shoes and not wearing them often. But I know I love them!
I do feel most of my designer shoes/clothing are better made and better quality, though, but sometimes,when a $74 dress does a amazing job like this one, I go for it and love it.

AUSTIN – With the 2013 Hurricane Season underway, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is reminding residents to make sure they review their emergency plans and stay prepared for the potential threat of hurricanes or tropical storms. Historically, August and September are the more active months of a hurricane season, which began June 1 and continues through Nov. 30.
"Although we have seen a relatively quiet hurricane season so far, we are currently facing the more active months of a typical season," said DPS Director Steven McCraw. "We are urging Texans who have not yet made preparations to protect their families and property from the impact of a tropical storm or hurricane, to do so now."
All Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coastal areas are subject to hurricanes and tropical storms. Hurricanes can cause catastrophic damage to coastlines and areas several hundred miles inland, and winds can exceed 155 miles per hour. In addition, hurricanes and tropical storms can also spawn tornadoes, create storm surges along the coast and cause extensive damage from flooding.
Here are several measures residents can take now to prepare for potential storms:

Arthur Murray has been a leading name in franchise dance since 1912, when the entrepreneur began selling mail-order dance lessons. Expanding his reach, he enlisted teachers to spread his signature dance lessons on first-class steamships and skyrocketed to fame in the '30s after introducing the public to such dances as the Lambeth Walk and The Big Apple. By the 1950s, Arthur and his wife, Kathryn, were hosting their own highly popular TV show on ABC, The Arthur Murray Dance Party, which ran for 12 years. Today, Arthur Murray's team prepares students for rug cutting at special events and weekend nightclub jaunts. Clients who arrive to lessons partnerless will be paired up with other classmates as the instructors assess their current skill level and make recommendations on the most appropriate program. Throughout lessons, instructors teach the foundations of two to four dances from a long list of styles that range from Latin to country-western, helping students to learn basic step patterns, timing, and the ability to lead or follow.
Before Jordyn Palmer founded Edge Performing Arts and Dance, she unleashed her powerful pipes on the stages of Carnegie Hall and Avery Fischer Hall. These experiences, along with holding starring roles in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown and Jane Eyre, readied Palmer to lead fledgling singers and actors toward their own performance goals. Along with dance teacher Sanna James, Palmer leads private lessons, group classes, and summer camps that focus on stage presence, self-confidence, and turning every Shakespearean sonnet into a dance number.
At ComedySportz Seattle, the spontaneity of improv humor marries the competitiveness of athletics in weekly shows that churn out laughs for roughly 100 minutes each. During a match, two opposing teams of comics square off in red and blue uniforms as a referee presides. The teams launch into sketches and routines fueled by audience suggestions, much like on the TV show Whose Line Is It Anyway?. Since random, casual outbursts are so integral to the show, no two performances are the same.
Popcorn Media gives kids the chance to experience strutting down the red carpet during their Movie Star workshops and weeklong camps. Attendees soak up the secrets of screen acting from a director who works with Disney and Nickelodeon studios while producing their own unique work. They oversee each production element that goes into a film's creation, from lighting and filming to rehearsing and giving their parents an autograph. At the end of each camp, kids attend a red-carpet premier of their work amid the applause of friends and family.
Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts' 11 instructors share more than two centuries of combined experience in the entertainment industry, heading up a yearlong, by-audition acting program designed specifically for television, film, and commercial work. Not everybody is ready to make the plunge into the screen, so the school also runs smaller-scale workshops appropriate for all experience levels that cover casting dos and don'ts, career guidance, and summoning the willpower to meet James Cameron's third eye. The Actor's Makeover course tightens audition material into 15 minutes of pure emotional power, and part-time intro classes accommodate day jobs.
Action Dance Academy's staff of sure-footed instructors imparts the wisdom behind a multitude of dance styles, guiding the strides of children as well as adults. Classes encompass the staccato steps of tap instruction, which harnesses rhythm and Morse code to imbue each routine with a subliminal message, and jazz sessions that encourage improvisational footwork. Mommy and Me Movin' and Groovin' classes invite parents to bring along their genetic investments and learn a routine together while children develop rhythmic pattern-recognition skills. Consult the academy's schedule as well as its dress code policy to learn about the sessions and ways to look great while dancing without a leather jacket.

With the announcement that Geocities will no longer be available for domain hosting, I've been seeing a lot of inquiries about moving sites to new hosting. The phrase "While we're at it, I also need…" is all too common these days.
I'm thrilled that I'm receiving so many inquiries, but I wasn't ready for it. I've fixed that though, by adding a "Site Evaluation" form here to help me understand your needs better, starting with our very first contact! If you feel overwhelmed with the amount of information required to fill out that form, just remember that the more complete your answers are, the easier it will be for me to accurately identify your needs.
In the spirit of saving some time, I'll answer a few "Frequently Asked Questions" here for you that I've heard a lot over the past few weeks.
Q: Do you offer hosting?
A: Yes, I include hosting of your sites when you contract me for monthly site maintenance. When you contract with me to maintain your site on (at least) a monthly basis, I will host your site for you at no additional charge. If you don't require my web site maintenance services, but I design your site for you, I will host your site for $10/month. Please note that I do not offer hosting for non clients.
Q: Can you move my existing web site for me?
A: After you contract me to do so, yes, I can move your site to my hosting or any hosting service of your choice. You will need to provide me the information required to do so, but please only do that once we've agreed to contractual terms. I prefer to work with sites that will be hosted on my server due to my familiarity with it's functionality, and my confidence in it's security and programming. My agreement to work with another host depends solely on my familiarity with them.
I know that's only a few items, so if I haven't covered the question on your mind, feel free to contact me, or comment here on the blog. I'd be happy to help you create, maintain, or move your site!

a great joke. I am still laughing today. They fabricated data to support man/bear/pig in the 20th century, but chose to ignore 200,000 years of data that says the world has gone through several cycles of hot and cold weather in recent history. The global temperatures we have now are almost 10 degrees below what they were during the Medieval Warming Period (800 ad to 1300 ad). Where were the factories, planes or cars to warm the earth then? What warmed the planet then when the global population was a tiny percentage of what it is today? By ignoring the past we miss the chance to see the real causes of global warming are out of our hands. Mother Nature rules?
It was all hot air using bogus information passed off as "scientific." It appears to be more geared toward a power grab. I think I'll buy a bigger car next time; the plants need more CO2 to prosper.
iT IS DEFINITELY A FAILURE BECAUSE THE SO CALLED DEVELOPED COUNTRIES FAILED TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE POPULATION OF EACH INDIVIDUAL NATIONS. SO, ALTHOUGH EACH AMERICAN CONTRIBUTED 4 TIMES AS MUCH OF GREEN HOUSE GAS AS ONE CHINESE CHINA WAS UNFAIRLY BRANDED AS THE BIGGEST POLUTER. WHY IS IT THAT DEVELOPED COUNTRIES' CITIZEN CAN CONTRIBUTE MORE GREEN HOUSE GAS THAN CITIZENS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES. THE ONLY FAIR WAY TO COUNT GREN HOUSE GAS FROM EACH COUNTRY IS BE PER CAPITA.

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 Morrie!
Facts about Morrie
- Breed: Australian Cattle Dog
- Color: Brown/Chocolate - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Morrie's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, purebred, and up to date with shots.
My name is Morrie. I am a 5 year male cattle dog. I have a story but nobody knows it. I was picked up as a stray in the Casa Grande area and brought to the Pinal county shelter. The workers saw that I was special and made sure I was safe until NHCD could come and save me. Due to my unknown past life experiences I am reserved around new people. I have come a long way in a short amount of time and I really want someone to love who could be patient with me and expose me to new sights and places. I am completely misunderstood by people who meet me because I come off as aloof out of fear. I really am not an aloof dog. My foster dad has seen that I can be a great dog. He has had me since March 2012. He is patient with me and has really brought me out of my shell. When I am with him I play with my squeaky toys and I really enjoy playing in water in my kiddie pool. A friend of my foster dad comes by and takes me for walks and running too, which I enjoy.
I have been told that I am a medium energy dog. I do enjoy a good workout by playing fetch or going on runs. It helps me to keep my nerves calm. I desire a good patient leader who is kind and able to continue with my confidence building. I am crate trained and I'm learning basic obedience commands like sit, stay, drop it and wait. Though I'm not fully housetrained, I am learning not to potty in the house. I have to be honest I have no experience with kids and the ones I have seen have made me nervous. I may be fine with kids in time but maybe to start I would be better with older ones. I'm a good looking boy and I will make the best playmate ever if given the chance. I am neutered, micro chipped and up to date on my vaccinations. The only thing I am missing is my forever home. Can you help me with that? If so go to newhopecattledogs.com and fill out my adoption application. I promise you won't be sorry!
Intake date 3/12/11 from Pinal County euthanasia list

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Morrie, a Phoenix Australian Cattle Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Australian Cattle Dog for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Australian Cattle Dog 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 Australian Cattle Dog breeders who help with Australian Cattle Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

Sabres re-sign Gragnani and add to AHL depth
Nearly a strong month of silence from One Seymour H Knox III Plaza was ended this week when the Buffalo Sabres announced a trio of new signings.
The final signing, a one-year deal for Marc-Andre Gragnani, is the most important of the three. The Sabres no longer have any players left without a contract after Gragnani agreed to terms. Earlier in the week Buffalo came to terms on one-year contracts for Mike Ryan and Paul Szezechura. Both will play in Rochester this season.
The acquisition of Ryan and Szezechura was a good move by the team as the Amerks were in desperate need of help at forward, particularly at center. Szezechura is a natural center and Ryan will likely allow for Matt Ellis to serve as a pivot as well. Both players are capable of putting up numbers at the AHL level in addition to having some NHL experience. Strong marks to Darcy Regier for finding two strong veterans for the Americans.
As for Gragnani, I am glad to see his contract finally get hammered out. The defenseman qualified for arbitration but wisely opted against it. I'm surprised it took this long for a deal to be reached and I am also somewhat surprised that it is only for one year. It makes me think that T.J. Brennan and, most likely, Mark Pysyk will be expected to fill a similar role in the coming years. Regardless, Gragnani progressed quite a bit in 2010-11 and established himself as a quality NHL blueliner. In fact, he was heads and shoulders better than Andrej Sekera in the Flyers series and Rej just got a heap of money thrown at him.
This does leave the Sabres with two problems. One, they have eight defensemen on their roster. However, this year comes with an easy fix; waive Shaone Morrisonn. The second problem remains the same problem that has existed since July. They are about eleventy billion dollars over the salary cap. There will need to be at least two moves made before they will have enough breathing room to operate on a daily basis and have room for call-ups. Right now simply pushing Ales Kotalik and Morrisonn's salary to the AHL doesn't offer enough of a cushion. They need to find a bit more space.
How they might go about doing that is anyone's guess. You hear Brad Boyes and Jason Pominville mentioned a lot in this type of discussion and it makes sense. They have big contracts and could still garner some attention on the trade market. However, being this late in the summer makes me think it will be a different deal that trading a highly compensated forward. Sekera or Weber could potentially be on the chopping block since they have plenty of upside and very manageable cap hits.
I, for one, would move Sekera. He has shown quite a bit of skill over the past two years (both at the Olympics and last season) and he was compensated for doing so. However, he is not making a ton of money and would likely be very attractive to a team racing to the salary cap floor. Hello New York Islanders, I'm talking to you. The Colorado Avalanche also need to take on salary but may not want to part with any more draft picks after acquiring Seymon Varlamov. If Darcy Regier was able to snag a third-round selection for Sekera and ship him out to the Avalanche, I would be quite pleased with his work. Gragnani offers you the same skills, and more, and will still be making less if he re-signs again next year.
Regardless, the stockpile of defensive talent that the Sabres have is scary, I'm sure they will be parting with some of it in the coming seasons in order to bring in players for a Cup run, or two.
August 12, 2011 10:46 am
Why does everyone want to move Sekera. Once morrison and ales get moved we are under the cap and we have solid depth at every position besides center. Next year Boyes and Hecht are UFA, I foresee letting them walk so Myers can get signed. He is going to get between $5 and $6 million. Not to mention we still need to sign Ennis. In my opinion we should trim the pork fat of Morrison and Kotalik and play this year out. At the end of the season I believe Pominville and Leopold will be traded to free up cap space in order to make the crucial RFA signings next year.

An interesting read with some analysis by QB Asset Management that has a plan to being back stability to the banking system. Would be sweet, but I don't see it happening.
See link here.
Jim Sinclair has said gold is moving back towards the financial system, not away from it.
The comments I find most interesting are of gold going to $3400 and the impact on miners. At some point gold will jump to new highs and investors will view miners very differently, I expect a panic move into precious metals. May be months away but more likely at least a year or two out yet. I am of course bias due to my McEwen Mining, MUX, and Rubicon Minerals, RMX investments.

Draft pick franchise building hintDo the if you're looking to build a longterm dynasty that will last over many seasons. Note: This works best with "great" teams (like the Patriots, Colts and Chargers) and "good" teams (like the Jaguars, Broncos, and Cowboys). However, it is possible to work with any team. After completing your pre-season games, don't advance to the regular season. Instead, head to the trading block. Offer up your first round pick and ask for a first, second and fourth round pick in return. With a decent enough team, you will receive offers from all of the bottom teams (like Buffalo, Houston, Detroit, or whoever happens to be bad that season). So, with the bad team's first, second and fourth picks (for instance), you can offer your own second, third and fourth picks. Ask for a first, third and fourth pick in return. You must be flexible though, because you won't always be able to get what you want in return. If it works, you'll have two first round picks, a second round pick, a third round pick, and two fourth round picks (or something similar). This is incredible when you are building a franchise. Better yet, you can do this every year, making your franchise stronger and stronger with young, talented players. |
Set team and player rating in Superstar modeAt the main menu, go to "My Madden" then to "Create-A-Player". Create them however desired, but set what team you want to be on in Superstar mode and make them a rookie. When you go to "Player Rating", choose "Create Custom". You can now make your player as good or bad as desired. Exit the Create-A-Player mode. If you do not want to change your default rosters, choose the "Keep player without saving" option. Then, go to "Game Modes" and select "Superstar". Then, select "New Superstar" and choose the "Play as Rookie" option. Find your created person under the list of players. This will give you control of the Superstar at the start of preseason, and he will be exactly the same that as he was when you created him. This works well if you are bad at the mini-games and cannot get a good player normally. |
Recommended players in Franchise mode
Getting players in Fantasy Challenge modeMake sure you have all the desired players from that league on your team before the final game (championship). You will not be able to get the players if you win the championship, as you will move on to the next league. |
Maintaining positive ego in Superstar modeEven when you can back up a promise and win the game, never arrange media with the agent if you want to keep a positive ego and avoid becoming a "lone wolf". However, being a "lone wolf" is useful for transforming a pocket QB to a makeshift scrambling QB. |
1st round picksTurn off the trade deadline. At the last week of the season trade for first round picks with the team that has the worst record. |
Cheat codesUnlock the following teams/players by pressing the corresponding sequences of buttons at the main menu:
Hide plays from friendsTo hide a play, hold X while the play you want to select is highlighted. Then, move to another play while continuing to hold X. Release X to go to the field. |
Easy 99 awareness ratingWhile creating a Superstar custom character, assign his awareness attribute to 0. Doing so leaves you with more points to assign to other desired attributes. Once done, go to the IQ test and fail it by letting time expire. You'll receive a notification that you did poorly, which adjusts your awareness rating from 0 to 99. |
Bonus teamsTo unlock NFC hall of fame, AFC hall of fame, dummies, glaciers, receivers, and tridents, defeat them in Fantasy Challenge mode. They are in the Supreme league. You can also buy their Madden cards for 100 tokens. |
Recommended players in Fantasy ChallengeIn Fantasy Challenge mode, two great and cheap players are Mike Alstott (FB) and Antrell Rolle (CB). Rolle has great catching and it is almost a guaranteed interception in every game that he plays. You should get the cheapest players at every position, then save it. Go to "Rosters" under "Features" at the main menu and increase your players to a 99 overall. Doing this will make your team cheap and outstanding. Also, no one will be able to negotiate your players away. |

Easy kicker and punter stats in Superstar modeIf you are a punter, put him as a QB. Then, on your audibles, set a play called "Punt". If you are a kicker, put him as a QB and set "Field Goal" on your audible. Call the audible as soon as the offensive line is formed. You can now rack up more field goals from your opposition's 42 yard line forward. If the ball is spotted on the 50 yard line, you will shoot from about 15 to 18 yards further back than that (which is already an NFL record). |
3 or 4 human players on same team
Touchbacks in Superstar modeUse the following trick to obtain influence credits for touchbacks from kickoffs or punts for a Superstar punter and kicker, and to make sure that your touchbacks will be credited to your Hall of Fame resume as well as your stats line. Do not just boot the ball out of the endzone so that the returner cannot catch it. Instead, make sure the returner catches the ball and kneels down. |
