Dec 4th 2011 6:37PM Awesome article as usual, Anne.
I'll don my own tinfoil hat for a moment here: in my opinion, we're too often seeing omniscience where there isn't.
What I mean is: it's possible that the Titans did not know what the threat would be. They empowered the aspects to prevent it, no matter what. So in my view there wasn't any plan or experiment; Deathwing was corrupted by the Old Gods and led their charge to destroy the world, so the other Aspects did their job and stopped him.
Luckily, we mortals were there to help.
From my own personal view, that'd make a more compelling story than a divine plan. The Aspects were the first line of defense, but we mortals are the element of surprise, the individuals who made the difference when an unforeseen enemy (our own protector, Neltharion!) tried to end us all. That, in the context of the game (where we have to matter, otherwise there's no point), is so much more awesome!

Is technology getting between kids and their parents?
There's been a lot of talk about how technology affects American kids. One in 10 kids gets their first personal cellphone by the age of 5.
If we were to take an honest look at ourselves, we would probably find that we've responded to Facebook message or sent a tweet while spending time with our kids. While we may think it's not a big deal to stay connected, it may be causing a disconnect with our kids.
On any given Monday morning, Jamie Butow and her son have their routine while getting ready for school. Their day begins like most families with breakfast, coffee and technology.
After eating cereal and brushing his teeth, Joseph Gonzales is allowed to play on his computer for about 10 minutes before heading off to school. That's when his mom, Jamie Butow, relaxes with a cup of coffee and checks her Facebook.
In this day and age, we have never been more connected to the world, but is that creating a disconnect in families?
We asked Joseph if he ever felt like his mom was spending more time with technology that him.
"No, I know she spends a lot of her time on the phone, but she spends most of her time with me," said Joseph.
The 10-year-old said he's lucky compared to how he sees other parents behave.
"They're walking home from school, and their parents are leaning against the fence looking at their phone, and the kid, they want to be near their parents, but their parents shoo them away," Joseph said.
A few years ago, Joseph's mom was a newspaper editor working 10 to 12 hour days. She was concerned she was missing out on her son's childhood, so she decided to make a change.
"I'm trying to really focus on him," said Butow. Now, she works from home as a social media specialist who also teaches classes in social media at Bakersfield College.
Because of her job, Butow is online more than most people but "unplugs" while spending time with her son.
"I really made that conscious effort to break away from the phone," Butow said. "The reality is it's not urgent. If there is an emergency, they'll call me."
Disconnecting is hard, because these devices are designed to get and hold our attention. But, all that attention on technology comes at a price, according to licensed family therapist Lowell Lueck.
Lueck said focusing on your phone and not your kids is a form of neglect.
"They don't see themselves as a priority," Lueck said. "The emotional scars are deep, because that is where the basic trust is established through the bond that exists between parent and child."
The therapist of 23 years said children will do anything to get their parents attention, including acting out with temper tantrums and negative behavior.
But, eventually they'll give up, and that's when trouble can start.
"Parenting is a full-time job. If you want to have a relationship with your child, you need to interact with your child," warned Lueck.
The battle now becomes about balance, because there is no turning back on technology now.
Butow said with a little effort and dedication, unplugging from technology can become as easy as checking your Facebook feed.
"You have to make that conscious decision to do it, to go offline to disconnect, for it to become a habit," Butow said.
You don't have to go cold turkey. Butow said you can follow simple steps to cut down on the digital distractions. You can change your settings on your phone or computer to only send your alerts and notifications every 30 minutes. That way, you won't be tempted to check your devices.

Minimum Stay | nights |
The Kings Point House is a unique lake shore property with large U-shaped dock and sloping lawn. The dock is so massive, a 60' yacht could dock there. The house has been newly redecorated in a casual yet luxurious and contemporary Montana style. The view of Flathead Lake and the Mission Mountains will take your breath away and can be seen from huge windows in almost every room. We call it 'Lake TV' because the view and the parade of wildlife is ever changing with graceful osprey, swooping bald eagles, ducks and geese, and of course the neighborhood deer. The great room has a large stone fireplace and a log dining table that seats twelve, opening on to a deck with seating and lounging under a Ponderosa pine tree. There is a 50' google LCD TV on the wall with HD CABLE. The downstairs living room is cabin-retro with a wood-burning fireplace contrasting with a 42-inch flat screen TV.
In the summer time, Flathead Lake is a boaters' paradise - it is the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi so even on peak weekends it seems uncrowded. There are many islands to explore, Native American rock paintings to be discovered, glassy coves for water-skiing, and private fishing spots to claim. The lakeside communities have public access where you can pull in to the dock and walk to world class dining. Glacier Park is an hour away if you can tear yourselves away from the lake. Once you find the Flathead, you will want to return again and again.

Game 3: New Jersey Devils at Edmonton Oilers
Start Time: 9:30 PM
TV: MSG-Plus
Radio: 660 WFAN AM, 101.9 FM
Your New Jersey Devils (0-1-1) and Edmonton Oilers (0-2-0) will both be looking for their first win of the season Monday night when they drop the puck in Edmonton. This will be the first time the Devils and Oilers have played each other since January 11, 2012 (NJD 2- 1 EDM, OT). The game will be the first of five in a Canadian road trip for the Devils, where they'll take on the Oilers, Canucks, Flames, Jets, and Senators all within 10 days.
Game 1: New Jersey Devils at Pittsburgh Penguins
Start Time: 7:00 PM
TV: MSG-Plus
Radio: 660 WFAN AM
Your New Jersey Devils and Pittsburgh Penguins once again find each other squaring-off to start an NHL season. These two teams have combined for 6 of the last 8 Atlantic Division Championships, and have represented the Eastern Conference in the Stanley Cup Finals four times in the past 10 NHL seasons. The Devils will look to start the 2013-14 season off right after missing the playoffs last year, while the Penguins will look for some consistency from their goaltenders and return to the Stanley Cup Finals.
Game 40: Boston Bruins at New Jersey Devils
Game Time: 7:30 PM
Radio: 970 AM
The New Jersey Devils (15-14-10) will play host to the Boston Bruins (25-9-4) tonight for third and final meeting of the season. This is the second game between these teams in the last week. Last Thursday, the Devils shipped up to Boston in a game that saw the Devils throw everything but the kitchen sink at Tuukka Rask, but he stopped all 40 shots. Jaromir Jagr would score in his debut as a Bruin, and the Devils would fall 1-0. These are two teams headed in different directions, as Boston is fighting to win the Northeast Division, and New Jersey is fighting to keep its playoffs hopes alive.
Game 37: New Jersey Devils at Boston Bruins
Game Time: 7:00 PM
Radio: WFAN 660 AM, 101.9 FM
The New Jersey Devils (15-12-9) will travel to Boston to face-off against the Bruins (23-8-4) on Thursday night for the second time this season, with the teams set to meet once more next Wednesday at the Prudential Center. The first meeting between the teams came when the Devils were 3-0-1 and the Bruins were 4-0-1, and resulted in a 2-1 shootout loss for the Devils. The Devils will be looking to get out of a recent slump that has plagued their play lately, while the Bruins will look to catch up to Montreal for first place in the Northeast Division.
Game 32 – New Jersey Devils vs. Florida Panthers
Game Time: 7:00 PM EST
Radio: WFAN 660 AM, 101.9 FM
For the first time since their exciting 7-game series in the 2012 Eastern Conference Quarterfinals, the New Jersey Devils (14-11-6) will square off against the Florida Panthers (9-16-6) at the Prudential Center Saturday evening. The Devils will look to continue their strong performance, after a commanding 4-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday night, while the Florida Panthers will look to add to a current 2-game winning streak as they claw their way back into the Eastern Conference standings.
Game 24: New Jersey Devils vs Buffalo Sabres
Game Time: 7:00 PM EST
Radio: WFAN 660 AM, 101.9 FM
The Devils (10-8-5) are desperate for a win, as they face-off against the Buffalo Sabres (9-13-2) for the second time in less than a week. Last Saturday, the Devils fell to the Sabres 4-3 in a shootout, in a game that featured a fair amount of trash-talking from both sides, most prominent being Adam Henrique and Ryan Miller jawing after the shootout. The Devils will look for revenge at the Prudential Center on Thursday night, but more importantly, will be looking to end their recent 6-game skid (0-5-1) and avoid their first 7-game losing streak since 1986.

KERRZY Hawaiian Diaries Ep 8

Open to all surfers from trials to finals, The WTA has become a coveted and fun part of these ASP stops.
Josh's awarding of the WTA for "Biggest Air" is even sweeter as he also proved to be the most consistent aerialist in the event, with four waves documented as potential for the award. His name was a constant whisper through the crowds and contestants as his aerial prowess kept everyone on their toes. Ultimately, it was his full rotation front-side 360 indy grab during his third heat in round four that clinched his victory.
The conditions for this stop of the WTA were a perfect fit for big airs. The punchy beach breaks of Rio proved to be the ultimate platform for some of the most progressive airs on the WCT.

This one-of-a-kind watch features a custom engraved case back, an applied Brazilian flag on the dial, a Swiss movement, 60 blue sapphires set in the bezel, four decorative black diamonds on the dial, as well as 24 black diamonds on each of the indices.

Kunal roped in Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra, who had a rocking chemistry in "Kaminey", for his ambitious project. "Honestly, after watching "Kaminey", I was surprised that no one repeated the couple in their movie. Getting the lead correct was the most important task. I was always very sure of Shahid and when he came on board, I wanted someone who could match up to him and Priyanka was the obvious choice," he says. Wasn't he apprehensive about their on and off relationship and its affect on his movie? "Not at all. How people behave off-screen is not my concern. Why should I be bothered about what's happening in Shahid amd Priyanka's life? They never talked about it and I never asked them about their personal equation. When I approached them with the movie idea, they both said yes. Beyond that I never interfered," clarifies Kunal.
Shahid's shayarias Javed (one of the character) has caught the attention of youngsters. We heard that Kunal borrowed Shammi Kapoor's style and body language as reference for Javed's part. True? "People are remaking films, I'm remaking eras. We have different people, who leave a different influence in each era. So for 60s who better than Shammi Kapoor? He had his distinct style and you can see his influence in the movie songs," he says. When it comes to music, Kunal says, he doesn't like to follow any trends. "Music is a very crucial part of my films, and I take a keen interest in how the songs are shaping up. You know the songs of "Mujhse Dosti Karoge" play even now on radio. That's the kind of effect I want. I want the music of my films to live forever," he says, adding, " Everyone talks about youth and we feel that youngsters like particular kind of music. But the fact is that we have a desi youth. We should stop saying what they want and we should give them something different like qawalis, shayaris and all."

Healthy, smooth skin gives you a fresh, youthful appearance. Great skin is a key element of beauty; when your skin is well-taken care of, it acquires the famous "glow;" it is "radiantly" beautiful. Though they may not be able to put their finger on the exact reason, people tend to notice something special about a person with perfect skin.
When you attempt to guess someone's age, the number that you come up with is usually based primarily on the appearance of the person's skin. As people age, their skin slowly loses its elasticity, and the pull of gravity causes it to sag. Wrinkles and jowls begin to form, and you may end up looking older than you feel. Dr. William Heimer and his highly skilled team of medical professionals can help you beautify and rejuvenate your skin using a wide variety of advanced procedures.
Voluma was FDA-approved for use in the U.S. Market on October 23, 2013. Voluma is available by Dr. Heimer, a professional and reliable trainer of other physicians for more than 20 years, at both his Hillcrest and his Encinitas office. The parent company is Allergan, a well known and trusted brand.
Voluma already has a good safety profile and has been approved for use in Canada and Europe.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC injectable gel is the first and only filler FDA-approved to instantly add volume to the cheek area. It gives you a subtle lift, helping to restore contour and a more youthful profile, for up to 2 years, in patients over the age of 21. It's different than JUVÉDERM® XC and works on a different area of the face. JUVÉDERM® XC smoothes out moderate to severe wrinkles and folds around the nose
Dr. William Heimer specializes in giving his patients the healthiest, most beautiful skin possible. He uses the latest medical technology, combined with a refined eye for detail and beauty, to provide his patients with natural-looking rejuvenation.
At Dr. Heimer's office we have a wide variety of treatments that can dramatically reduce the visible signs of aging, including jowls, frown lines, wrinkles, and other fine lines. We have procedures designed to lift and tighten skin, such as a variety of chemical peel treatments. We also offer advanced methods of volume restoration, including wrinkle fillers such as Sculptra™, Restylane, Radiesse™, and the GentleWaves® system, which uses soft pulses of light to diminish wrinkles by encouraging growth of collagen in your skin. Dr. Heimer also provides cutting-edge treatments for skin problems such as acne.
"I have to compliment you on your amazing ability to make me feel safe, comfortable and beautiful and at the same time, I am thrilled with my results. Your gentle technique is fabulous and I did not experience any pain. I completely trust your aesthetic eye as well. You and your staff have treated me with kindness and true caring."J. Suess, San Diego

The young, gifted athletes of today still aren't helping the young, gifted athletes of tomorrow. If there's a nauseating gag reflex that develops somewhere deep in your stomach every March and April when you hear the constant chatter about character issues, red flags, and other unquantifiable qualities that aren't directly linked to on-field performance, then Justin Blackmon isn't your friend right now.
He probably wasn't your friend yesterday either, or any day before that because few of you know him personally. But if by chance you received a friend request from Blackmon over the weekend, you almost surely denied it, and you also became the annoying guy who lists his status as "maybe" for Blackmon's birthday party, even though everyone knows you're not going.
Here's a quick review of Blackmon's stupidity in case you missed it yesterday. The Jaguars' fifth overall pick this year was arrested in Oklahoma early Sunday morning on an aggravated DUI charge after he blew .24 on a breathalyzer test, which is three times the state's legal limit. It's also triple the limit in Florida, the state where Blackmon is now employed.
Although most of the legal and behavioral problems with early picks over the past two drafts seem to be isolated in Detroit, Blackmon now has the honor of becoming the third first-round pick since last spring's draft to be arrested on a DUI charge (Nick Fairley and Aldon Smith are the other two). It's Blackmon's second DUI charge over just the past 20 months, as he was also pulled over for driving under the influence when he was a star at Oklahoma State, which was the first incident that raised the questions about his character.
After maintaining silence for over 24 hours, the Jaguars finally issued their non-statement statement this morning.
"We are aware of the report and are gathering information. We don't have any comment at this time," a team spokesman said.
There's no acknowledgment of disappointment. Just a lame swat away attempt, a tactic preached during the first week of public relations school.
For a franchise trying to start a new era under Shahid Khan and shed the stigma of similar drunken stupidity from the likes of Matt Jones, some public scorn is needed here, and fast.
And now the links part of the links post…
- A little later on today we'll elaborate on the absurdity of Chris Johnson's self-appointed best running back in the league status. But for now just know that, well, those words really came from his mind, and then out of his mouth. It was overconfidence combined with a classic mental filter malfunction. [The Tennessean]
- The Cowboys have said repeatedly that they have no intention of trading Mike Jenkins. And now they've reportedly turned down four teams, so maybe they really don't have any intention of trading Mike Jenkins. [Len Pasquarelli]
- "Jets west" sounds like the name of a bad discount airline that serves only roasted peanuts and has Ms. Doubtfire as the in-flight movie. But no, it's Mark Sanchez's passing camp, and a certain backup Jets quarterback who could take Sanchez's job will be in attendance this year. [New York Daily News]
- During the 2012 season Ndamukong Suh wants to show the world that he's not an unhinged jerk. [Detroit News]
- Roddy White said that he expects a reduced role this year with the young and quickly emerging Julio Jones targeted more often under Dirk Koetter's new offense in Atlanta, and he's OK with that. [Atlanta Journal Constitution]
- Ray Rice is expecting flood waters. [KSK]
- Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams is making steady and surprising progress during his recovery from a an Achillies injury. [Buffalo Rumblings]
- Jake Long will be franchised if the Dolphins can't finalize a long-term deal with their left tackle by next March. [Miami Herald]
- Michael Bush has only had 25 or more carries in a game four times in his career. Dude's paid to score touchdowns and hurt people, and that's what he's going to do in Chicago if the Bears can ever make Matt Forte smile by paying him the appropriate sum of money. [Bear Goggles On]
BLACKMON UPDATE: He appeared in court today and pleaded not guilty. His next scheduled appearance is July 24, three days before the Jaguars start training camp.

The Seventeen Trainer brought to you by Exercise TV.
Hi, my name is Natalie Yco from the Seventeen Trainer brought to you by Exercise TV. This is the All Over Toner. These exercise are gonna work your entire body in a short amount of time. Now the first move is a [unknown] jumping jack. Similar to a jumping jack but you're gonna cross your legs at the bottom. You're ready to begin, let's do it. Come up and then cross. Up and then cross. Let's do that 2 more times. Great job. You're gonna do that for 30 seconds. Take a break and then repeat 2 more times. Now the next one is a jump rope. If you have a jump rope, great go for it. If not, that's okay. We can pretend. So what you're gonna do is you're gonna make big circles with your arms by your hips. Come up and slightly come up off the ground, not too high and don't land to your heart. Keep your legs slightly bent in the knee and abs engage, and breathe. 2 more. The last one, great. You're gonna feel that in your shoulders, your arms, your abs, and your legs. Plus you're gonna get that heart rate up. So do that for 30 seconds. Stop. Get some water. 2 more times. Okay, now we're gonna do a pushup with a pause. You can come down to your knees and start but some of you can come on to your tippy toes that's great. There's no such thing as a girly way to pushup. You'll get stronger. Just keep working at it. Shoulder above the wrist, abs tight, come down, and then hold it at the top. Just like this. Come down one more time and hold it at the top. Great job. For that one, I want you to make sure that you hold it at top, if you can do it 30 seconds, great. If not, work up to it. You will get stronger. Now the last move is a mountain-climber. You're gonna come up to your hands, bring your front log into the elbow, and then kick it back, and then the other side just like that, and when you get stronger and get fitter, you can go a little faster. You'll burn more calories so then your upper body, and you're gonna feel great. That one, I want you to also do for 30 seconds, take a break, and repeat two more times. This is All Over Toner.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 2
Posted By: Rick McInnisDate: December-12, 1997 at 20:13:12
In Response To: Considerations in addition to lectins (Ellen)
Dear Ellen,
Sounds to me like you are well on the way.
Just as this whole thing got started by Dr.D'Adamo the Elder's observations, seems to meyou have the power to take notice of how thingsare affecting you. I cannot imagine anyonemore capable of sorting this out than you.
The lectins certainly haven't been the entirefocus of the regimen. You might be a littleunfair with that comment!
I am fascinated by your experience with theEzekial bread. I do judge how I am reacting tofoods by how much they bloat me and the productionof gas. Ezekial bread never bloats me, yet, ifI eat the WASA rye crackers I do bloat, thoughslightly, with subsequent gassiness! (I, too,am an "O")
I do not remember being advised to eat much fruitin the book. So no BIG surprise there.

Reports: NFL Set to Ruin Super Bowl XLIX with Katy Perry Halftime Show
A Katy Perry halftime show at Super Bowl XLIX? Believe it. According to multiple unconfirmed reports from people who have "sources," the NFL has settled on the "Dark Horse" singer after also putting out feelers to Rihanna and Coldplay. And all this just one week after Perry's much talked-about guest appearance on ESPN's College GameDay. […]
Check Out the Golden State Warriors Fat Guy Acrobat (Video)
Apparently Golden State Warriors fans were sick and tired of watching incredibly fit physical specimens perform acrobatic tricks and stunts during breaks in the action at Oracle Arena in Oakland. So the team went out and got a fat guy acrobat instead. Where do you find a fat guy acrobat? I don't know. McDonalds? This […]

Beyoncé's Super Bowl Halftime Performance Summed Up in 5 GIFs
I don't know about you, but I thought the halftime performance by Beyoncé at Super Bowl XLVII last night was pretty great.

Charlotte Bobcats Provide a Nut-Cracking Halftime Show (GIF)
The 2012-13 NBA season is two and a half weeks old now, but there is still one sad, pathetic team who has yet to win their first game. And, unbelievably, it's not the Bobcats. They are actually 4-3. No, it's the Washington Wizards. They are 0-7. And interestingly enough, the Wizards were in Charlotte on […]
TNT's Ernie Johnson Is Not Impressed with His Halftime Notes (Video)

During halftime of last night's game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Golden State Warriors, Charles Barkley voiced his opinion regarding the Lamar Odom situation, as he believes it is "a joke" that Odom will get paid $1-million to sit at home next month after being let go by the Mavericks. And Charles isn't the […]

5 Comic Book Truths (that I don't think are true)There are lots of tips, chestnuts, and other pieces of advice that I've heard over the years--tidbits of wisdom passed on from one generation to the next, from professional to professor to prospective student. Some of them are drawing tips, some of them are tricks to dealing with publishers, and some are general guidelines on how to survive in comics. Most of them are useful and true and will stand the test of time, but a few of them have become hackneyed platitudes and have gone unquestioned for too long. Here are 5 that I'm questioning...1. READERS WILL ONLY LOOK AT A PANEL FOR 5 SECONDS, SO DON'T SWEAT IT TOO MUCH.I understand the intention of this bit of wisdom, and I mostly agree with it: drawing great interiors is important, but at the same time, you don't want to get bogged down with small details that most readers won't even notice.But here's my concern with this: if you treat every panel like it's disposable, then you're less likely to make an impact with reader

The good ol' daysI remember a time when I would come on here routinely and vent all my feelings for no other reason than just that.I think part of the reason I felt the need to do that here is because in my mind, you liking my art means potentially you like me as a person. This is not necessarily the case, but maybe in some instances it is.Since a while back when all of us UDON folks went off to our own places away from a centralized studio, I've started to feel a sort of distance from the scene and my cohorts. As time went on, I got married and now have two kids, while manyof my coworkers don't and that is not a chastisement.However, having a family of your own is a full time thing and one that needs constant communication and planning to get the most of. Many things that seem so unclear manifest themselves only well after the point, and all in all its a learning game that never stops.Because of a number of factors, I also just turned off all external media out of sheer disinterest. I never watche

It's so hard to have an open concept and a wall for a tv. If this were my house, I'd think about having the room currently marked "DR" as the family room. This way, you would have some wall space. Another advantage of this set up is that your formal space, LR /DR are together and your casual space, FR, rooftop deck, office, basement are on the other. I think you need to think about how you want to use the space everyday. How do you intend to use the sunroom? Does it need to be a separate Segregated room from the family room or kitchen, or can it be incorporated differently? Do you grill on the rooftop deck? If so, it might be nice to have the dining right there as shown. Is your rooftop deck used seasonally? Do you have children that need to be supervised when on rooftop? If so, you might not use deck as often. Could you move the rooftop deck door to the right so that it's in a walkway and you don't need to walk around furniture to access the door? I would consider a door with half glass. I guess this is complicated if you want to add a step up to door. Could the deck immediately outside the door accommodate a step up to deck on outside rather than inside? If not and the interior step up must remain, I might consider moving the door to the right and put a fireplace on the left of the door with a step up stone hearth that extends to act as the step for the deck. But if you are in warm climate, I guess that won't work. You new home is lovely. Such nice character. |
Four square homes were never built as open concept. The name "four square" means 4 rooms over 4 rooms. The last thing i would worry about is where to position a tv if a structural engineer hasn't been engaged to make sure the house doesn't collapse with your knocking out the interior walls. |
@ jmc01 - I think the home may be a foursquare but I am not really sure if it is or not. If you read the articles above you would know I did not just go knocking out walls. I did not knock anything out that was structural. I did consult an engineer and a contractor. I would not do something so foolish that could cause the house to collapse especially since in these old homes sometimes the what holds the house up goes from basement all the way through the attic. Thank you for your input I appreciate the feedback. |
@ dily - Thank you for the ideas. I really like them. I like your idea for moving the door to the rooftop deck over. A glass door is what I wanted. I never thought of the fireplace on that wall, but that is a GREAT idea! And the idea for the step up hearth is a FANTASTIC IDEA! I can't wait til the contractor comes cause I am definitely gonna find out if this can be done, I sure hope it can! The Rooftop deck door is just a couple inches up from the deck so I wish we could move the door down, but that would be too costly to do cause it would involve too much structural work. The Rooftop deck is only used seasonally and later we do plan on grilling out there. I do not think the Sunroom has to be segregated, but if I open the kitchen all the way then I will not have any Sunroom you would be walking in the side door through the Kitchen. That's why I am debating about the small addition, but that would depend on the cost factor also. We have a lot of renovations to do in the house and I will not be able to do them all at once, but with a plan in place I can tackle each renovation 1 at a time. And I'm guessing you are thinking keeping the living room as a living room? |

Sigurdsson gives Swansea the lead with free-kick
Tidal lagoon power project would create 1,850 jobs
If it gets the go-ahead, the tidal lagoon energy project in Swansea Bay could be the first of a series of five developments around the UK coast which could generate as much as 10% of the UK's electricity by 2023.
Tidal Lagoon Power, the company behind the project, said it was hoping that 65% of expenditure would be in the UK, boosting a homegrown supply chain and a possible future export market. The company has produced a video to explain the scheme:
The project includes creating a 10km sea reef, the reintroduction of the native oyster to Swansea Bay, an offshore visitor centre and national triathlon and water sports facilities.
According to the developers, research as part of the project's initial stages found that 86% of local residents were in favour of the scheme. The Swansea Bay project would save 236,000 tonnes of carbon a year and create 1,850 construction jobs.
Tidal lagoon energy project to power 120,000 homes
Plans have been submitted to develop the world's first tidal lagoon energy project in the UK, which would provide renewable power for 120,000 homes for 120 years.
The developers of the £750-850 million project in Swansea Bay say their application is the first step to developing lagoon technology that could meet 10% of the UK's electricity needs from the tides.
The scheme would involve a six-mile (9.5km) wall built around Swansea Bay, creating a lagoon in the Severn Estuary with turbines that can harness the incoming and outgoing tides to generate power 14 hours a day.
Woman bitten by python after night out in Swansea
A woman had to be taken to hospital after being bitten by a 10-foot python as she took a short-cut home from a night out at a pub in Swansea, south Wales.
Sue Cull, 47, said she felt her legs sting as she cut across grass near her home but believed she had been stung by nettles.
However within minutes of arriving home, Ms Cull's partner called for an ambulance after failing to stem the blood streaming from both legs.
Paramedics confirmed she had been bitten by a snake en route to Morriston hospital, and that police had a report of a python on the loose at the time of the incident.
Despite suffering a three-inch puncture wound in one leg and having to spend a night in hospital on an antibiotic drip, Ms Cull saw the lighter side, saying: "I posted on my Facebook page 'I'm off to the pub for a shot of snakebite' this morning and everyone who goes by bibs and waves."
Hull among four cities on 2017 UK City of Culture shortlist
Dundee, Hull, Leicester and Swansea Bay have made it through to the shortlist for the UK's next City Of Culture.
The locations were announced by Culture Minister Ed Vaizey after the independent advisory panel looked at 11 bids for the four-yearly accolade.
Locations which failed to make today's 2017 shortlist list were Aberdeen, Chester, East Kent, Hastings and Bexhill-on-Sea, Plymouth, Portsmouth and Southampton, and Southend-on-Sea.
The winning City Of Culture will be announced in November with the victor expecting a major boost in tourism and investment.

When people are traveling, they seldom think about maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Eating healthy food is the last thing on their minds. A number of people end up eating greasy fast food and some stop their usual exercise routine. Staying active is very important and a number of hotels offer facilities such as gyms and spas. Losing weight might not be possible; however, maintaining your weight is possible especially if you're on a diet. You can eat healthy and stay active no matter what kind of trip you're taking.
On the Plane
· International flights are long, however, just because you're stuck on a plane for hours does not mean you have to eat unhealthy meat and starchy sides the airlines call food. If you're looking at bringing your own food, think about snaking on healthy food. This includes bananas, apples, nuts, carrots and celery sticks. Include energy bars. Most airlines provide bottled water and provide healthy sandwiches. Also, most menus are more health conscious so it's wise to take advantage of it.
On the Road
· It's easy to snack on unhealthy food especially when you're on the road. Eating fast food can easily look like the ideal choice of food. It's wise to pack healthy food like fruit, raw veggies and sandwiches from home. It's also a good idea to restock your stash along the way with offerings from local grocery stores. Remember the bottled water, sitting down for long hours without hydrating can have a negative effect on your health. Drink lots of water from time to time. Make regular pit stops and be on the lookout for cafes and restaurants that are serving healthy choices.
At the Hotel
· When choosing to stay at a Johannesburg hotel airport, choose one that offers a fitness center. Or you could bring your own set of equipment if you're not happy with the equipment available. Dumbbells and resistance bands fit in most bags. It's a good idea to bring an exercise program with you, Taebo or Zumba are great choices. One can always jog around the area and you can incorporate exercises such as jumping jacks and squats. Early-morning stretches or stomach crunches before heading out for the day can also be incorporated.

Finley--PETSMART's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
UPDATE--You can now meet Finley in person at the Muncie PetSmart! Finley is a great cat! His approximate date of birth is in November 2009. He is fun loving and playful. He wants attention and isn't afraid to ask for it! He was brought to us injured, with what appeared to be a very nasty bite wound on his back. In the 3rd photo, you can see where the hair is not completely grown back in just yet, but it will be soon. He is not a big boy, weighing only about 8 pounds. He does well with other cats, but does like to play rough--probably explains the bite wound...he probably got too rough with another stray kitty and the other kitty did not want to play. He does well with kids and would adjust to a gentle, cat friendly dog. His markings are really cool--my husband calls him a "cow kitty". He also has a small injury to his left eye. The vet says it is healing, and while the spot may not completely go away, it is not painful or causing him any vision issues. If you are looking for a fun-loving, friendly boy, take a look at Finley!

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Finley--PETSMART, a Muncie Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Muncie, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Muncie.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Muncie 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 Muncie 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 Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Muncie paves the way for another one to be saved.

I am new to this program and when I try to run it the emulator never goes to home screen and just stays on the boot screen with the image Android. I get this error when I run my app."Deployment failed because of an internal error: Unexpected install output: Error: Could not access the Package Manager. Is the system running?"
ARM emulators are extremely slow and take forever to boot up. If you still see the "Android" screen, it is still trying to boot up. You'll see the home screen eventually. But you won't be able to deploy until you see it. Try using an x86 based emulator. Those run much faster, still a little on the slow side, but bearable.

Hoffa Says All Americans Need To Come Together To Solve The Jobs Crisis
(WASHINGTON) - Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa today applauded
President Obama for presenting a jobs program with specific goals and a
realistic means of achieving them.
"Congress must pass President Obama's plan now," Hoffa said. "The jobs
crisis is an American problem. It isn't President Obama's problem and it
isn't a Republican or Democratic problem. All Americans need to come
together to create good jobs for the good of our economy and the good of
our country.
"This plan will immediately increase economic activity and generate more
tax revenue," he said. "That's how you fix the deficit. Good jobs are good
for the economy."
Hoffa said the Teamsters will study the specific details of the plan as
they are released in the coming days.
"I'm especially pleased that President Obama wants to invest in
infrastructure improvements and in jobs for our military veterans," Hoffa
said. "I'm also pleased he recognizes the need to put money in the pockets
of working people."
Founded in 1903, the Teamsters Union represents 1.4 million hardworking
men and women throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. Visit

A column which highlights Suicide Girls and their fave groups.
This week Spliff explains why she stands behind Ass Appreciation.
Members: 8,020 / Comments: 82,077
WHY DO YOU LOVE IT?: Aside from the fact that I love booty – all kinds of booty – I really love this group for the members and the owner Bepps. It's a community within the site made for all us ass lovers to unite. I also really enjoy that there are threads made for some girls to just post their glorious bums. I personally have a thread with 72 pages of only mine.
DISCUSSION TIP: In this group you can discuss openly just about anything ass related you want. A lot of threads will just make you simply want to say "DAMN!"
MOST HEATED DISCUSSION THREAD: The Post Your Own Ass thread is by far the most popular. I love this thread because there's daily new cute booty pictures of not just SG's and hopefuls, but also members.
BEST RANDOM QUOTE: "What a delightful derrière!" – I love this because I always here ass, booty, butt, bum. But derriere makes it sounds sexier. Also, "Your ass has to be illegal in at least 48 states!"
WHO'S WELCOME TO JOIN?: Anyone who loves a good behind, weather it be small ones, fat ones, asses in panties, or asses and heels.

2014 CBD Season Preview: Ivy League
After an exciting finish in last year's Ivy League Baseball Championship it is fair to say that coach Whalen and the Big Green will be looking for some redemption come the 2014 season.
After Columbia swept Dartmouth in the Championship it was no surprise that the Lions had lived up to their pre-season rankings. This victory clinched their 11th Ivy League title in program history, and second in the last six years which has head coach Brett Boretti and the rest of the program excited for the upcoming 2014 season. With the competitive nature of the Ivy League continuously growing, 2014 promises to showcase great talent on the diamond. Continue reading 2014 CBD Season Preview: Ivy League
Missouri Valley Conference Recap April 5th-7th
An exciting weekend of Missouri Valley conference play is in the books as each series saw it's teams square off in closely contested match-ups. Perhaps the most exciting was Missouri State and Illinois State's Friday night opener, in which starters Nick Petree and Chris Razo exchanged strike-outs down the stretch before Petree was ultimately handed his first loss of the season. Perhaps the most controversial was Creighton's opening game win over Bradley which saw a critical play at the plate, and a not completely unexpected ejection thereafter. Southern Illinois and Evansville saw their own pitchers' duel on Friday night as starters Kyle Freeland and Cody Forsythe both went nine innings in a finish that would need extras to decide it. Meanwhile, Indiana State rescued a sweep at the hands of Wichita State after Sean Manaea, who was scratched from his Friday start, was able to pick up the win on Sunday.

Missouri Valley Conference Weekend Recap (March 22nd-24th)
The start of Missouri Valley Conference play was marked as it always seems to be: with a winter snow storm. All the teams in the Valley rushed to finish their series before Sunday (with the notable exception of Wichita State who had the fortune of playing in Hawaii—and ironically had Sunday's game rained out). In the first weekend of conference play, Creighton took two of three on the road at Evansville, while Indiana State proved they will be a tough team to beat this season by taking all three from visiting Southern Illinois. Out of conference, Illinois State dropped their series to Eastern Illinois, Bradley lost their two games against Dartmouth in Florida, and although their basketball team is on a tear this March, the Wichita State baseball team struggled through their road series at Hawaii, picking up just one win in their four game series. Missouri State had the weekend off. Continue reading Missouri Valley Conference Weekend Recap (March 22nd-24th)

2011 Ivy League Award Winners
PRINCETON, N.J. — The Princeton Tigers made a return to the top of the Ivy standings for the first time since 2006, and did so largely due to the play of junior catcher/outfielder Sam Mulroy (Bethesda, Md.) and RHP/first baseman Mike Ford (Belle Mead, N.J.), who were voted the 2011 Ivy League Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year, respectively, in a vote by the League's eight head coaches. The third major honor of the year went to Penn senior hurler Paul Cusick (Wilmington, Del.), who was named Pitcher of the Year. Continue reading 2011 Ivy League Award Winners

Happening This Month - January 2015
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources' Wildlife Resources Division is proposing changes to fishing regulations. The proposed changes would remove the 'mountain' trout season and open all trout water to year-round angling.
Coyote. The word can bring a multitude of reactions – curiosity, respect, fear, suspicion - depending on your level of interaction with this animal. A new multi-agency study, scheduled to begin in 2015, will help answer many coyote-related questions.
Here is to hoping you are ready for the new year with lots of planned fishing trips! Anglers can find the new 2015 Georgia Sport Fishing Regulations Guide online and in print, announces the Georgia Department of Natural Resources' Wildlife Resources Division.

You would most likely need set 3. If you usually wear a brand that runs small, you would need set 2 and make the cup inset in the band a bit wider, but keep it the same length. You will also have to adjust the pattern for a larger band size.

Hey there, I am so sorry about not getting back to you sooner. I've been sick and had surgery.
I'm trying to get the pattern where you can download it, I'm new to all of this and am trying to figure out how to do it.
The ruffle goes on the bottom of the nightgown. It's much easier to put the whole thing together before sewing up the seam in the back, then add the ruffle. You can use ribbon for the ties at the shoulder if you don't want to sew them.
I hope this helps, and if you have any questions pleas let me know. I'm home now and will do my best to check every day.
Thank you for your understanding,

Lupus Linked to Petroleum Exposure
Scientists in Boston and New Mexico have shown that exposure to petroleum is linked to the deadly auto-immune disease lupus. The illness is already known to have genetic origins -- African- American women are nine times more likely to get it. But reports show the environment plays a role, especially in two black neighborhoods in Boston. Residents of Roxbury and Mattapan live near gasoline stations or sites near petroleum-product dumping groups, and have the highest rate of lupus in the region. Another study of people living in a housing development in Hobbs, New Mexico, built on the site of a former oil-field dump, detected an incidence of Lupus at 30 to 99 times higher than estimates for the general population.

The Disappearing Honeybee
A widespread honeybee die-off, known as "colony collapse disorder," has seen bees disappear from hundreds of thousands of hives around the world this winter. Experts are scrambling to explain why bees are fleeing their hives en masse and dying elsewhere. Honeybees affect one-third of all food eaten in America and the United Kingdom, pollinating orchards, gardens and crops. Twenty-four U.S. states have been affected, as have Scotland, Spain, Italy, Poland, Greece and other parts of Europe. A Pennsylvania beekeeper blames a new insecticide used to treat agricultural crops, while scientists on the West Coast say the culprit is cold weather and mites. Continue Reading →

Plastics & Your Health
By Martin Leatherman & Newsdesk.org staff
New studies of chemicals used in plastics reveal potential health problems, including miscarriages and abnormal fetus development. But regulation remains a tricky prospect. Legislators in California are developing bills targeting chemicals used in consumer products, including plastics, which may cause human health problems.
Cosmetics and chemical manufacturers say that such new legislation is unnecessary because a variety of state and federal laws already regulate the industry, according to the Christian Science Monitor. One chemical of concern, bisphenol-A, or BPA, is used in baby bottles, teething rings, packaging materials and wall and floor coverings. In a study published in the May 2005 edition of Endocrinology, mouse fetuses exposed to one percent of the amount of BPA deemed safe for humans developed significantly more tissue in their mammary glands.

The Glaciers Melt
Martin Leatherman, Newsdesk.org
The melting of the world's glaciers is bringing new attention to the threat of global climate change. One recent study published in the journal Science found that 87 percent of the 244 marine glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula have retreated over the last 50 years. As atmospheric temperatures rose along the peninsula, glaciers moved south toward mainland Antarctica. Now, scientists may have the valuable ocean temperature data -- or "smoking gun" -- they say will help them predict climate change. According to the Associated Press, the study showed that the Earth is absorbing more energy than it is releasing. Continue Reading →

I am thinking of buying singer XL6000. I did the virtual tour of the Viking SE and got to like the features, but the price was not for me. The singer XL6000 seems to have many of the same features, not all, but still...
Would love to hear comments, positive and/or negative, regarding performance of the singer XL6000....I looked at the Futura, but when the clerk showed me a sample of an embroidery design done by a Futura 250 and the Viking SE, unless it was some sort of manipulative technique to sell a higher priced machine, there was a difference in the quality of the design, just cleaner edges, filled in more completely.....was it just the power of suggestion or bad eyes? Does a machine like the Viking SE or Singer XL6000 really produce a better embroidery design than, for example, a lesser machine moneywise? I have never done machine embroidery before, but am good with software and competent with regular sewing machines and, I should mention, I am fearless and determined....but I want a good machine that produces as good a quality design as I can afford....can anyone out there help me? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have a almost brand new XL6000 with all attachments for sale. The embroidery parts are still in an unopened bag, never attached to machine. Nothing wrong with it, I just have some health issues and need money to help with expensed. Thanks |

I have had the XL 6000 for six years and have found it wonderful. Not only does it have the double thread automatic threader but it is much quicker than most other models. You can connect directly with the computer to download any of your patterns. I use HUS but it will take other designs. It is very easy to use and has color display. You can store some designs right on the machine and it has built in design also. The other option is the new Futura 400 XL. I have been thinking of purchasing it as it is less $$$ than the 6000. It is a really nice machine and I could use it at our winter resident. It depends on how much embroidery you want to do. It you are going to make a sell quilts etc then the 6000 is good. I also think the new 400 XL is very adequate and chaper. I do know that you can find the XL 6000 online through eBay (if that is allowed to say here I hope) however the 400 XL will still be cheaper. It is not as fast as the 6000 but good. It also has a nice stitch and a larger frame than the 6000. If there is anything I can help you with please don't hesitate to email me. |
