Stocked with NPCs, and plenty of plot hooks, The Lost Graveyard is written by Quinn Conklin, and published by Occult Moon. Get it here.

I'm gonna try and get there, looking for veggie seeds mostly, will have some flower and veggie seeds to trade if I can make it. |
I'm a newbie and have just put this on my calendar. Thanks for posting. (I'm vegetarian so I probably won't be eating what most people will be eating. I can bring something myself so I won't starve, LOL) Not sure if people like "common" plants. I do and that is what I'm hoping for. I love my green wandering jew and I also have purple wandering jew and elephant ears and esperanza and marguerite yam vine. Not sure I have much else. I'm glad I have time to put something together. |
Please add a guest so that will make two of us. She is not a member of this forum but will be joining me. Should I send you email? I have thought of some other plants, still common but at least more such as boston fern and a type of (common) iris and asparagus sprengeri fern. |

Not sure about the time. When do people arrive? I guessed 10am to 2pm and added this event to the plant swap calendar at: http://www.plantswap.net/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=80&day=2009-11-7 Hope I didn't do a bad thing. Let me know if 10am to 2pm is too far off. I know these things are usually a bit informal but would be nice to have an approximate range for newbies. Thanks in advance. |
Here is a link that might be useful: plant swap calendar

We're pretty informal! 10:00 sounds about right, some of us get there earlier and some later. And we have a wide selection of foods, even for vegetarians. You'll have fun and go home with some great "common" and uncommon plants! Tally HO! |

Jeff Soukotta Joins Men's-Wedding-Rings.com
Jensen Beach, FL, Mar 28, 2012 (PRWeb.com via COMTEX) -- Mens-Wedding-Rings.com (MWR) is pleased to announce the addition of Jeff Soukotta of Adaptise.com to assist with its search engine optimization (SEO) efforts. Based in Toronto, Canada, Mr. Soukotta's vast expertise and unique personalized approach to search engine marketing and optimization are a perfect fit for this ever-growing online retailer of men's wedding rings.
Story continues below ↓
"Jeff and his team at Adaptise.com joined our team in November of 2011 and have already made a huge difference in increasing conversions and growing our sales by over 300%," says Men-Wedding-Rings.com president and owner Roy Devine. "His attention to detail and analytics is impressive, as is his follow-up, availability and commitment to going above and beyond to make our business the number one men's wedding rings site on the internet. We now have over 30 important keywords on page 1 of Google, many of which are high competition." Unlike many other online marketing and SEO firms, Adaptise brings an individual and humanized approach to the table. Mr. Soukotta believes that SEO is more than just bringing content to the attention of the search bots - it must also appeal to the human beings reading it. Jeff Soukotta's philosophy is evident in the Adaptise name: he and his team help companies "adapt" to and make the most of the online market, increasing their web presence, conversions and sales in a way that is most beneficial to their core business and branding. Mr. Soukotta personally trains each member of his staff to ensure that they are well-versed in the most current and correct SEO information, and that Adaptise's high standards are maintained.
Jeff Soukotta's passion for technology and the internet stems from a very unusual childhood growing up in a remote and mountainous region of Java, Indonesia. Roving tigers were an active concern, and Mr. Soukotta and his family lived with nearly daily blackouts, a crank telephone and a single channel television. Despite these technologically challenged beginnings, Soukotta was already building websites during the mainstream infancy of the internet in 1996. Having worked directly in SEO since 2006, Mr. Soukotta applies his inherent fascination with technology to continue to raise Adaptise's bar for excellence and put his clients on the first page of Google.
Under Mr. Soukotta, Adaptise has grown rapidly from a one-man operation to seven employees in just its first year of business, and is projected to grow even more by the end of 2012. While the primary business is search engine optimization, Adaptise offers a full spectrum of online marketing and development services, including site building, conversion optimization and social media marketing (SMM). In addition to its Toronto headquarters, Adaptise has a branch office in Japan to better serve its international clientele, with client companies spanning from the United States to Japan to Australia.
In conjunction with Mr. Soukotta, Mens-Wedding-Rings.com will continue to expand its available collections of men's wedding rings and bands in a variety of materials, styles, and sizes, all at some of the most affordable and competitive prices online. "Adaptise is looking forward to propelling Men's Wedding Rings even further into the online retail market," comments Mr. Soukotta. "Roy and Judy have built an amazing team, and it's very exciting to become a part of it and help Mens-Wedding-Rings.com realize its full potential." About Men's-Wedding-Rings.com Mens-Wedding-Rings.com is a niche online jewelry store for men's wedding rings and bands. Customers can find the best quality men's traditional and alternative wedding rings in this specialized retail environment. From major designer bands in traditional and alternative metals to non-designer rings in stainless steel, titanium, tungsten, sterling silver and cobalt, Mens-Wedding-Rings.com is a one-stop source for men's wedding bands and rings. Owners Roy and Judy Devine make it their goal to ensure their customers are completely satisfied, selling only high quality rings at excellent prices. MWR customers enjoy free shipping and a 30 day money back guarantee, and have come to expect the highest standards of service, selection and quality when they shop at Mens-Wedding-Rings.com. MWR offers the best selection of men's wedding rings on the Internet, many of which are available through size 20.

Written By Jill Remensnyder
What does it take for one person to take a stand?
According the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, 5,764 young people ages 10 to 24 were murdered in 2007. That averages to 16 deaths per day. Among homicide victims in that same age group 84% were killed by a firearm. That same year in Illinois alone incidents of gun murders, gun suicides, and unintentional shootings killed 150 children and adolescents ages 19 and younger.
Many of these acts are committed by young people whose victims, whether intended or just innocent bystanders, aren't any older than the perpetrators of these crimes.
Ready to do something yet?
These numbers, along with endless news stories about young lives taken before they've had a chance to live, are driving Chicago filmmaker Kevin Otterness to take a stand. Instead of turning a blind eye to the gun violence in today's youth, he plans to open eyes to an epidemic that's spread from high-density urban areas to the rural outposts of America. Kevin's goal is to use his skills as a filmmaker to raise the awareness of this senseless violence beyond what the media portrays. His short film With One Eye Open intends to do just that. But he needs your help to make this possible.
With One Eye Open is a short film about a young boy caught in the vicious circle of urban violence and the desperation that drives him to emulate behaviors learned on the street that will eventually control the course of his life. Kevin knew this was a film he needed to make the moment he read the script written by Edgar Velazquez.
"My goal with this film is to bring to life the hold violence can have on kids who are surrounded by it everyday," says Kevin. Not only does he intend to portray the violence that is very real to many younger people, he plans to make it so personal to the audience that they are compelled to take a stand against this kind of violence.
There are many different views on solutions to this issue. Some seem to think focusing on prevention programs is the answer, others tend to side with more legislation to create laws that handle serious youth offenders. While With One Eye Open portrays one boy's pressure to succumb to violence it doesn't mean to present an easy answer to the problem.
"There's no silver bullet solution to ending youth and gun violence in our communities. I think it's going to take a combination of factors – prevention and intervention programs, laws and legislation, and communities banding together – to bring an end to senseless acts of violence in our neighborhoods," states Kevin.
This topic can easily be shrugged off as an issue that only plagues poverty stricken urban areas, but that just isn't the case. It can happen anywhere at anytime. Columbine, Jonesboro, Virginia Tech, and the recent movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado are reminders that no one is immune to this sort of violence.
Pre-production for the film is tentatively planned in January 2013, with a goal to begin filming in the summer. All of this is contingent on whether or not he raises the funds in time.
With One Eye Open is seeking contributions on the crowd funding website Indiegogo. The $25,000 it will take to make the film will go to covering production and post-production costs including equipment rentals, locations, music, insurance, and legalities associated with making a film. This is an "all or nothing" campaign. If the $25,000 goal isn't met none of the funds are made available to make this film.
If you can't support the campaign financially, you can help by spreading the word to those who can. Share the Indiegogo page with friends and family, like the Facebook page, follow Kevin's updates on Twitter and re-tweet to your followers. Every dollar donated is a statement that says, "Stop the violence."
Kevin Otterness owns and operates Chicago based Posthouse Pictures; an independent film company producing groundbreaking independent films, music videos, and documentaries that appeal to a wide range of audiences. Kevin hopes that by creating quality content other productions will be drawn to Chicagoland and all it has to offer as a filmmaking location.
This film has the power to make a difference in the lives of many young people, their families, and communities. Are you ready to take a stand? If not now, when?

Dan has yet to fill out a bio.
Don't be a stranger.
You need to start weighing in on some of the important issues concerning the Jets.
Enjoy the holidays.
Right on.
Once again . . . great comments about Geno Smith -- and the New York Jets.
Very astute observations.
Stand your ground.
And . . . do not give in to those who confront and criticize for biased reasons.
There you go.
That was a great post on the Jets quarterback debate.
I am not sure about Greg McElroy.
I think . . . maybe . . . that window of opportunity has closed.
But . . . I have long advocated that the Jets should trade Darrelle Revis and Tim Tebow to Washington for Kirk Cousins and their first.
Cousins would do great with Marty Mornhinweg and his West Coast offense.
When that fell on deaf ears. . . I started thinking Nick Foles might become the odd man out with Chip Kelly in Philadelphia.
Same trade basically . . . different quarterback.
Then . . . I started thinking the Jets might go after Kevin Kolb.
However . . . with the recent signing of David Garrard . . . I am starting to think the Jets are going to go with Mark Sanchez again.
As you know . . . Sanchez has been working out with Jeff Garcia (a Mornhinweg alum) to learn and perfect the new system.
So . . . to be honest . . . I have no idea what they intend to do.
If I had my way . . . I would much rather see the Jets have a brand new beginning with Kirk Cousins under center.
Needless to say . . . it will be extremely interesting to see what direction they finally decide to go in next season.
As a life long Jets fan . . . I would like to see you become a regular contributer on our Jets team page.
I read some of your previous posts . . . and they were right on.
Do not be hesitant to chime in once in awhile and give us your own takes and opinions on things.
Welcome to b/r.
I thought I would take this opportunity to say hi and be the first to fan you.
Hope to see more of you on the boards.

Am about to accept a proposal for cabs for new house. Local custom cabinet man who does beautiful woodwork bid cab boxes of 3/4 melamine as well as drawers constructed of 3/4 melamine with drawers dadoed and glued.
Seems the melamine for drawers would be acceptable for cleaning ease. However, should I be concerned regarding the construction quality of the cabinet boxes?
Follow-Up Postings:
I would have the opposite concerns. Melamine cabinet boxes are fine -- dimensionally stable and easy to clean. Melamine (which means melamine-coated particle board) drawers would be a definite no-go for me, as the material is too fragile to tolerate the inevitable stresses drawers must endure. |

Shark Week on GR is about sharks and games (and not at all about riding on the caudal fin of the Discovery Channel's popularity). So what the hell could be a better way to celebrate sharks and games than by featuring the GAMESHARK. Just look at it, it has both words right there.
If you've been hiding in an underwater cave for the past 20 years and need a primer, cheating devices like the GameShark work by modifying bits of memory or code in games. Some players stick to the standard, published codes which offer practical gameplay modifications like invincibility and infinite ammo. Those people are boring, and not very shark-like at all. The true fun of the GameShark is in messing with untested codes for the most absurd results possible. Granted, most of the time custom codes just break the game, turning it into an existential exploration of colors and falling off cliffs, but that's just part of the charm.
We'll keep it short and sweet, which is also how a shark would describe your limbs, and our exploration will focus primarily on the N64 version of the GameShark, for the obvious reason that the N64 is gray, which is also the color of SHARKS.
Above: See?
Being an N64 launch title, and one of the first 3D free-roaming platformers, Mario 64 was pretty easy to break. In researching this feature, we wanted to find some silly videos of all the nonsense that could be achieved in the game...we found so much more. One YouTube user has not only uploaded 22 videos of Mario 64 GameShark modifications, he's narrated many of them, voicing all of the characters himself. See for yourself:
We think his work is brilliant, and the enjoyment he clearly received from making these videos is strangely contagious. We couldn't stop at just one:
The GameShark not only enabled Mario to poop coins, it actually helped fans discover hidden content in games. The most famous example is in the Dam level of Goldeneye 007, which contains a hidden island of mystery and intrigue and a couple of bland, concrete buildings.
Above: There's not much on it, but hey, cool right?
The popular story is that the developers had intended to include a ferry which would take players to the island, but ran out of time. They left the island intact, and with no-clipping mode on, we can walk like Jesus to its mysterious shores.


text: you asked... Q&A: Can STDs affect pregnancy? Can STDs affect my pregnancy? If so, how do they affect the baby? Want to participate? Log in to share your thoughts Re: Can STDs affect my pregnancy? If so, how do they affect the baby? Good question. Not many people like to talk about STDs, but it's important to be open about all health issues with your doc to ensure that baby is healthy. As a general rule, you should get tested at your annual gyno exam. If this isn't the case, it's extremely important that you're tested and treated while TTC (screening for STDs is part of routine prenatal appointments). If you're infected and get pregnant, keep up-to-date with your treatments (if it doesn't affect baby) and continuously ask your doc questions. Read on for some must-know facts about STDs and how they may affect baby... Chlamydia and GonorrheaRisks include your water breaking early, preterm birth, a miscarriage, and baby contracting pneumonia or an eye infection (due to contact during delivery). Luckily, you can be treated with antibiotics during pregnancy. Keep in mind that women generally have no symptoms, so it's a good idea to be tested just in case. Herpes A sure sign of herpes is painful sores or blisters down there, but sometimes there are no symptoms. The sores will heal and then sporadically reappear because the virus remains in your body. During delivery, if there's an outbreak, the safe option is a c-section; otherwise, baby can be infected (this can cause blindness, mental retardation, damage to the nervous system, or death). Keep in mind that a c-section isn't 100 percent effective because if your water breaks a few hours before birth, the virus can spread to baby. Human Papillomavirus (HPV)This usually, but not always, results in itchy and bloody genital warts. The good news is that there's only a slight risk that baby can be infected (in rare cases, baby gets warts on her throat). In general, genital warts go away by themselves and certain medications that may cause birth defects shouldn't be used during pregnancy. A c-section may be needed if the warts make it difficult for baby to come out. Syphilis It can be hard to detect because the painless sore (known as a chancre) can hide deep within your vagina. A blood test after the early stages or testing a sample from the sore will determine if you have it. It can be passed to baby through the bloodstream and may cause a miscarriage, stillbirth, or your water to break early. If baby contracts syphilis, he may have birth defects, but treatment after birth can prevent more damage. If you do have syphilis, it's important you take care of yourself (plus baby!) and get treated the first three to four months of pregnancy. Trichomoniasis You may have no symptoms, and there's a risk for your water to break early and for preterm delivery. The good news is that it's safe to be treated during pregnancy (with antibiotics). Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection (HIV)HIV can be passed to baby during pregnancy or delivery. Without treatment, there's a 25 percent chance that baby will get the virus. Treatment should continue through pregnancy to delivery and be given to baby her first six weeks. A c-section may help prevent spreading the virus, but nursing can pass the virus to baby. By Sandra Le Plasse re: Q: STDs and pregnancy? Back before I knew my husband... I was engaged to another man, he was unfaithful and gave me Gonorrhea. The doctors treated me with Med.s but I get nervous now and then because now that I am with my wonderful husband and we are TTC; we are having trouble. I keep thinking its because of what my ex gave me. So, would you know that if I did once have Gonorrhea, but treated it right away; would I still have a problem getting pregnant or while I was pregnant? buschhorn | Q&A: Can STDs affect pregnancy? I guest as long that you find as soon that you have std ,and get treat in your frist trimester ,it sound to me it want hurt your baby as long as you get treat it. chaterbox423 | Q&A: Can STDs affect pregnancy? I just found out that I am 5 weeks pregnant and I am a bit worried about this actually. In october 09 my doctor advised me that I had Chlamydia and gave both myself and my common law pills for it. We have no idea when or where we got it... But I have been infertile for years and never had to be on birth control or anything because of it. The month after taking the pills to treat the chlamydia I got pregnant and then miscarried at 6weeks. I am now pregnant again but I am wondering if my tubes were damaged from the chlamydia as it was obviously what was preventing me from geting pregnent previously. suzyq678 | Q&A: Can STDs affect pregnancy? I worried because I recently found out i had chlamydia and am 12 weeks, I took the meds for it but now my back is killing me and so i my abdomen..i just dont feel right and not sure what to do...This is my first child and very scared of loosing it :( AshleaK91 | Q&A: Can STDs affect pregnancy? Many STDs are silent, that is without signs or symptoms. So it is wise to pass STD testing before planning pregnancy. If you have any symptoms or any likelihood of getting STD you should see your doctor for an examination and any necessary testing. Many STD, including chlamydia, can be treated during pregnancy.

Catching Up with Candis Cayne
By Joshua Miller
Even before she became the first transgendered woman in history to have a recurring role on a prime-time series, ABC's Dirty Sexy Money, Candis Cayne was an industry veteran. With several movies credits to her name, including To Wong Fu', Wigstock, and Starrbooty, the blonde beauty has also starred in advertising campaigns, won the Miss Continental Pageant in 2001, and had a SKYY vodka cocktail named after her.
As Cayne prepares to join the cast of Nip/Tuck and perform a weekly stint at the Abbey in West Hollywood (recently voted "The Best Gay Bar in the World"
by MTV's LOGO), we caught up with her to chat about how she got her name, the challenges and triumphs of her transition, and being a stepmother.
Out: How did you decide on the name Candis Cayne?
Candis Cayne: My drag mother was Lana Cayne. I wanted to keep it in the family. But looking back, if I knew then what I know now, I would probably have my parents choose my name. But it was something that I just couldn't change at that point.
Did you tell your parents before you decided on your transition or did you start transitioning and then think, It's time to tell my parents.
I had started hormone therapy and was at the point where I couldn't go back. Then I came to the conclusion that it was time to tell them. They took it amazingly. My dad actually said, 'It makes more sense, you being a woman than a gay man.'
How did your twin brother take your transition?
He was fine with it. I have been fortunate enough to not lose any family members from my transition. It had a lot to do with the fact that I was raised very grounded and I remained that way. And they all realized that I was the same person I was 20 years ago, I had just grown up, grown wiser, and grown a pair of breasts [laughs]. But seriously, it was more comfortable for them that I had not changed mentally, just physically.
When you decided to move forward with your transition did you feel disconnected with your blood family? Did you feel more connected with your gay 'family'?
There definitely was [some of that feeling], not because of anything my birth family did but because when I started the process it was kind of an internal thing. I had to dive into it and not have any influence around me. It was weird for me because I was performing in drag at the time. I was really worried about my gay audience more than my family, because I was afraid that they weren't going to accept me as transgender. I decided to transition in front of them and talk about it openly.
Did you experience knowing somebody else who had transitioned publicly and lost some of their following?
No, because in downtown New York there [wasn't anybody else]. There was a handful of main drag queens who were working. So when I started I really didn't have that example and I knew that the trans world was always really separated from the Chelsea boys and the downtown scene. But I knew that because I was a good performer I had that edge, and if someone felt uncomfortable with the transition I knew they would still respect my performance.
In New York there are trans performers and personalities, like Amanda Lepore, who are a bit more animated. Who did you look up to during your transition?
My biggest inspiration was Paris. She was always well-rounded, well-cultured, and well-spoken. She dressed impeccably, she was elegant, and she had class. That was someone I looked at and I knew that's what I wanted to become. Even though I was known for wearing next to nothing, it's all about how you carry yourself. There were a couple years where I didn't go back home for family functions, I stayed in New York City. I made excuses not to go back to Maui -- if you can imagine that [laughs]. When I told my parents about my transition I wrote them each a separate letter, explaining to them personally what I was feeling, and they flew to New York a month later.

Market finishes week lower as earnings, GDP miss drag down stocks
Stocks ended the week lower as several major companies reported weaker than expected results or gave disappointing guidance and a number of U.S. economic data points came in below the consensus outlook. MACRO NEWS: The Federal Reserve reiterated that it would exercise patience in deciding when to raise interest rates. The central bank added that economic growth was expanding at a "solid" pace... U.S. economic data was mixed, as Q4 GDP growth, durable goods orders for December, and pending home sales came in below expectations, but weekly jobless claims and new home sales for December beat expectations... In Europe, the annual cost of living in the euro zone currency bloc fell 0.6% in January, versus analysts' forecast for a fall of 0.5%. However, the bloc's unemployment rate inched down to 11.4% in December from 11.5% in November. Analysts had expected the unemployment rate to remain unchanged. COMPANY NEWS: Apple's (AAPL) shares rose after the company reported record results, beating analysts' expectations. The company sold 74.5M iPhones last quarter, a figure that also beat the consensus outlook... Visa (V), Boeing (BA), Amazon.com (AMZN), Google (GOOG), and video game maker Electronic Arts (EA) were among the companies that rose following their earnings reports. Facebook (FB) reported stronger than expected results but its stock was little changed on the week... Microsoft (MSFT), Caterpillar (CAT), Qualcomm (QCOM), Alibaba (BABA), DuPont (DD), and 3M (MMM) fell after reporting their results... Yahoo (YHOO) announced that it plans to spin off its stake in Alibaba later this year in a tax-free transaction. The announcement led to speculation that Yahoo could become a takeover target... McDonald's (MCD) announced that its CEO, Don Thompson, would step down and be replaced by its current Chief Brand Officer, Steve Easterbrook. Its stock reacted favorably to the executive change... Qualcomm (QCOM) cut its fiscal 2015 guidance and announced that its Snapdragon 810 processor will not be in the upcoming design cycle of a large customer's flagship device. A number of analysts and media outlets said that Samsung was the company to which Qualcomm was referring. INDEXES: For the week, the Dow is down 2.83% to 17,164.95, the Nasdaq is down 2.56% to 4,635.24, and the S&P is down 2.77% to 1,994.99.

On The Fly: Closing Wrap
Subscribe for More Information
On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were higher at midday as a blowout quarter from Apple (AAPL) offset a bit of the earnings season jitters that several Dow members' misses had sent through the market yesterday. The market saw its highs a short time after the open, as the better than expected earnings reports from both Apple and Boeing (BA) drove an early bounce. The U.S. averages gave up all their gains and moved into the red for a moment, but have managed to drift higher again following the close of the European markets. Next up is the Fed�s rate announcement and accompanying statement, which is due out shortly. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., crude oil inventories built up by 8.87M barrels last week, versus the consensus forecast for a build of 3.85M barrels. The price of WTI crude was down 2.5% near noon following the report and dipped back below $45 per barrel earlier in the morning. The Federal Reserve�s rate announcement is due out this afternoon at 2:00 pm ET. COMPANY NEWS: Shares of Apple jumped nearly 8% after the tech giants first quarter results handily topped estimates. A number of analysts hiked their price targets for the stock after the report, with JPMorgan raising its price target for Apple shares to $140 from $112 and Cantor increasing its price target to a "Street high" $160 from $143. Of note, Apple also said that Apple Watch is expected to ship in April... Yahoo (YHOO) shares rose 2.3% after the company reported earnings and announced plans to split into two companies: one that will own Yahoo�s core operating business and its stake in Yahoo Japan and another that will hold a legacy operating business and Yahoo�s remaining 15% stake in Alibaba (BABA). Yahoo plans for a tax-free spin-off of the company's remaining 384M shares of Alibaba, valued at $40B based on the closing price on January 26, and people familiar with the matter told Financial Times that the decision "significantly increases" the chances of Alibaba buying back that stake. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Abiomed (ABMD), which jumped 30% after announcing that the Impella RP System has received FDA approval under a Humanitarian Device Exemption and raising its FY15 revenue guidance. Also higher following their earnings reports were Freescale Semiconductor (FSL), which rose 20%, U.S. Steel (X), which gained 14%, and Electronic Arts (EA), which advanced 14%. Among the noteworthy losers was Pilgrim's Pride (PPC), which dropped 6% as its shares went "ex-special dividend," meaning investors buying the stock from here forth will not be entailed to the $5.77 per share special dividend, which is payable on February 17. Also lower following their earnings reports were Radware (RDWR), which fell over 13%, and Ethan Allen (ETH), which dropped more than 12%. INDEXES: Near midday, the Dow was up 71.28, or 0.41%, to 17,458.49, the Nasdaq was up 31.54, or 0.67%, to 4,713.03, and the S&P 500 was up 5.31, or 0.26%, to 2,034.86.

Oh boy… get ready for an ULTRA-ENHANCED FAP! We were getting ready to do the business on the new CoDBlops DLC but due to, uh, technical difficulties (ha, we don't have a copy of the game in the office – hey, we just work here!) we opted to try out the new Fight Night Champion demo on Xbox Live. And with all due respect to the game, we're a bit rusty at Fight Night, the controls have been altered (some say dumbed down,) and we knew full well that should we fail to open up an eyeball, or otherwise take advantage of the game's blood-N-guts M-Rating, this could be a very boring video indeed. And then a melody popped into our head: "Dumm. Dum-Da-Da-Da-Dummm…"
Thinking quickly, I grabbed the TalkRadar sound effects machine, hooked it up to a mic, and piped in the timeless jingle-jangles and sound effects from none other than Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! The result? An infinitely more watchable fight! Instead of a hyper-realistic bout between Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali featuring the sloppiest of blows, clumsy haymakers, and something completely disrespectful to the legacies involved, we actually managed to create something far closer to the heavyweight dream match-up we entertained in our minds circa 1985. The only drawback is that we were so concerned with cueing Glass Joe's Theme and certain, ahem, "Training Music," we forgot to put Brett on a working microphone – Durp!

Gary D. Glenn
Professor Emeritus, Political Science
1966 – 2007
Dr. Gary Glenn was nominated by ten colleagues, all who have been chairs of the NIU Political Science department. They remark, "Professor Glenn has been one of the College's most distinguished, dedicated, productive, and accomplished teachers."
Dr. Glenn began his career at NIU in 1966 and retired as a Distinguished Teaching Professor in 2007. His career reflects many contributions in teaching; advising; scholarship; and professional service.
Of Dr. Glenn's teaching, NIU Professor Emeritus Daniel Kempton, says, "I have discovered that Gary isn't just a great teacher; he is a mentor with an ability to change lives. His students regularly noted transformative experiences such as 'he taught me to think critically' and '[he] helped me understand how to evaluate what is true and what is spurious,' or simply '[he] helped me think about what it is to be moral'…[w]ith Gary, every class, irrespective of content, is an experience in learning to think."
For more than four decades, while earning every teaching award NIU offers, Dr. Glenn also spent countless hours advising students and working on their behalf. He established the Political Science/Pre-Law Residence Hall Floor and founded the Undergraduate Political Science Student Association. In the broader university context, he also contributed to NIU students' welfare. For several years, he served on the University Athletic Board, the University Judicial Board, the University Honors Program, and was an NIU sponsor for the H. B. Earhart Foundation.
Dr. Glenn has published numerous articles and book chapters of particular importance in American political thought; ancient political thought; and religion and politics. He gained national recognition as a political philosopher publishing over fifty studies, delivering eighty invited lectures to national and local audiences, and participating as an invitee in twenty-eight national professional development conferences.
In 2007, Dr. Glenn was invited to be an Academic Partner with the Bill of Rights Institute in Virginia where he currently provides workshops for teachers. In 2008, President George W. Bush appointed Dr. Glenn to the National Council for the Humanities, which advises the National Endowment for the Humanities on policy and awards for support of teaching, preservation, and research. Of this award, Dr. Glenn's nominators believe it is "an enduring testimony to the value of [his] lifetime of contribution to the furtherance of the liberal arts in contemporary life and culture."
Even in retirement, Dr. Glenn continues to uphold and support the ideals of liberal education, teaching in the NIU Life Long Learning Institute and contributing to his discipline and the University.

I've been gone for too long... a lot of things have been going through my head... Not that I am abandoning this blog, but, I guess, I lost touch of writing and expressing myself through writing and make-up. I want to continue running this blog but lately, I've been feeling so sick.
But, but, but... the make up inspirations that I see on my Facebook newsfeed is starting to tickle my imagination. It makes me want to play with my palettes!
I admire my favorite bloggers... They can keep up with blogging while they also go through their daily routines. I wish to have the same dedication so I could keep up with blogging.
Can anyone help me bring back my blogging mojo? I have so much to share, but when I try to face my computer to blog, I either get a writer's block, or other ideas would pop into my head.
My friend once said, "Do not lose touch of what you like doing. Continue living your dream and passion. It will keep you going and avoid you from getting burnt out."
I want to. I really do. Can someone inspire me? I can't even call myself a blogger any longer.

Angel is Back!!!
Why hello there, my little piece of heaven! ^__^
As you might have known, I had a plan to teach in the public school at the later part of 2012. And now, I have been teaching in one of the top public schools not just in Manila, but in the Philippines for three months now. It's a little rough, but I am enjoying it. Coping and adjusting will take a long way to go and for sure, it will be a bumpy ride for me. Yet, I hope that I am doing a good job in educating my kids. ^__^
2013 had sure been a wonderful year for me. I must be honest, that it was also tough for me. Career-wise, it was a big jump. I've been so used to the online ESL system for years. Imagine, I've been doing this kind of work for five years. Working full-time in a new environment was a total shock to me. When I went to the Division Office and they told me to report to school that same day, I wasn't even prepared! I'll write about this on a different post. *Writes down on a notepad* =)
How awesome was my 2013? Let me share it with you... Please click on this on the image to view. ^__^
One of the many highlights of my 2013 was when I got hired as a school teacher. I would love to talk about my adventures in school next time!
It's mid-week! Let's celebrate! ^__^
P.S: It's still taking me a while to blog more, but I am taking it one at a time. You know, school's really busy and all, and it is my first year of school teaching. I hope you all understand. Please do look forward for my future posts and reviews! ^__^

Out with the Old, In with the New: Happy 2014!
Hello dear friends!
I'm back for a quick post to greet and wish you all to...
May you all have a joyous and awesome year-end celebration tonight! ^__^
Oh! And I have news for all of you.
Bad/Sad News: I already quit my job as an online ESL teacher. It was a tough choice for me to make but I have to focus on my new career. I guess I'll just return when I am already stable in school.
Good News: I'll be back blogging again! I hope this time, time would permit me to blog more! ^__^
See you all again, soon!!! ^__^

My wall oven is wired for 4 wire hookup. The house has a 3 wire system so when the oven was hooked up the white wire was cut shorter and connected to the bare copper wire.
OK, now I am thinking of replacing this alum 3 wire in the house and running new 4 conductor cable. This is better, I know but now what do I do with the short white wire? Can I just use a wire nut and extend it, just connect it to the new wire directly or cut back the steel conduit and make the wires all the same lenght again? Thx |
Follow-Up Postings:
First, unless there is something wrong with the existing cable for the wall oven, I wouldn't bother replacing it. Yes, 4 wire is marginally safer than 3 wire, but not enough to bother with replacing it (in my mind). If you do decide to replace it, you'll need to describe more about where the white wire was "cut shorter". If this is inside the junction box, then yes, you can create a pigtail to extend the white oven wire. If by "steel conduit" you really mean metallic sheathed cable, and if you have slack in that cable, then you could certainly shorten that cable to make all of the wires the same length again. |

- Posted by scottwood2 (My Page) on Tue, Oct 2, 12 at 16:37
Thx for the replies. Yes the area I am talking about is in the junction box. I have read a lot about this and yes I agree that cutting the wire shorter was a mistake. I just copied what was done with the old oven. It is done now so this is what I have to work with. I talked to my electrical inspector for the city today and he said the wiring is fine the way it is. New 4 conductor is better and code for new construction but 3 conductor is fine and the wire being alum is fine as well. I talked to 2 electricians at work and they said they would replace it so this is where this all started. So now I am thinking of just keeping the current setup with a crimp connector just like it has been for the past 55 years. |

I'm new to this site and new to the whole redecorating/vintage accessories to the home etc... I have just bought this old school 'vintage' twin desk and chairs for my son who starts school in September - the desks are very marked with awful graffiti nad it seems alot of work will need to be done to restore to origional look. I'm basically stuck on what to do - do I sand down, refill holes and paint? How do I paint them? I can't decide if I want to paint them to how they looked origionally (in wood) or to go more vintage/shabby chic by whitewashing??? What would you do? The desk wil be in my sons room which isn't themed at present.. Many thanks and any ideas/suggestions are welcomed x |
Follow-Up Postings:

It sounds like the finish to far gone to restore to a natural wood condition. I think I would strip, sand fill and paint. If the desks are solid wood you could strip down to bare wood and refinish the wood by staining or applying an antique finish. You might even stain the tops and paint the sides and legs with an antique paint and distressed wood finish. |

About | Projects | Docs | Forums | Lists | Bugs | Get Gentoo! | Support | Planet | Wiki
Hi all, I joined the perl herd awhile ago and have been helping out the cause. I think it's fair I introduce myself as another point of contact in the madness that is perl in Gentoo. So: 1) Who are you? I'm Chris White, live in Northern California. Hobbies include Japanese * and general excercise methods. 2) Are you considered sane? Depends on what I'm doing, but in general no. 3) Why care about perl? I started working on perl because I noticed quite a few jobs wanted perl experience as a requirement. I decided to re-learn perl (I'd used it before slightly) and realized afterwards how powerful the language was for my general usage. I realized that perl in Gentoo was a bit lacking, so I stepped in and started to help. 4) What can we expect in the future? Ok, this leads to the second part of my email. Consider this draft but it somewhat outlines my thoughts on the current situation: 1) g-cpan.pl needs help I've noticed that quite a few bugs in bugzilla stem from g-cpan.pl issues. 2) Modules need updating I'm sure mcummings has already shown this but: http://dev.gentoo.org/~mcummings/perl_updates.html. While the script that created this has some minor issues, it still holds that it represents the fact that there are lots of packages that need bumping. 3) Collision protection needs work mcummings and myself have been talking about this for a bit. The plan seems somewhat set, but we just need to figure out what's going on. 4) Perl minimal needs to be looked at Apparently perl with the minimal USE flag has caused some questions by various users as to what it entails. If you have an idea on what USE="minimal" emerge perl should do, feel free to comment here. 5) More documentation Documents should probably be setup for g-cpan usage, mod_perl setup, and what mcummings has already posted. That's all I can think of for now. Thanks for hearing me out even if it was boring, and I hope all works out towards a better Gentoo-perl integration. Chris White Gentoo perl developer P.S., on the note of above, if what you've heard of is something you'd be interested in doing on a regular basis, feel free to contact me with regards to becomming a developer.

The city of Cuenca sponsors free Zumba classes at parks all over town, including one near our building that is rocking from 8 to 9 every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evening. We've not participated but most definitely hear the music and enthusiastic instructor urging on sometimes as many as 100 folks from the neighborhood.
So it was a bit odd this past Friday that the music started cranking at 9, but we thought maybe the schedule had changed. Then it kept going--and going--and still going when we went to bed. I learned the next morning that we were celebrating the annual fiesta for our El Vergel barrio (neighborhood).
All weekend. Sigh-----
Sure enough, Saturday night we were living in Party Central once again. I woke up to go to the bathroom at 1:30 and the music was still blaring, so maybe it stopped at 2? Who knows?
Yesterday the fiesta got started in the early afternoon and I at last wandered over to check it out. Our little park was packed with revelers and vendors. Here are some photos to give you an idea of what the celebration looked like.
Yes, somehow she's sleeping through all the racket.
And I'm happy to report that the party finally shut down at 9 last night.
