It was not a pretty sight — teeth ground down to stumps. It shocked a patient in a Terrebonne dentist's clinic. The patient had felt with her tongue that something was wrong, but only discovered the extent of the damage when she saw her mouth in a bathroom mirror. She is one of many angry clients.

This reminds me a lot of The Wrens' "Happy," and I'm totally fine with that.
Ugh. This just solidifies what a bummer it is that "the Deal is off." At this point, I think I'd prefer Black to just make another solo "rock" album. Svn Fngrs was incredible. But this feels so dated in a very contrived way, like they're pretending the last 22 years didn't happen and they're picking up right where they left off. I enjoy it, but I just can't help but feel underwhelmed.
I think I was sold based on the strength of the opening monologue. As far as the song itself, I went from being bored to appreciating their delivery. At least its better than the array of 99-cents-bin-used-cd-store-days "throw back" genre singles that are starting to pop up on here.
HAHA. Thanks. Love that song. And the video killed me.
She paints a very uplifting portrait of the value and diversity of goods and services, while delicately justifying emotional prostitution. "No one notices you? Give me a buck and I'll notice you." She's no doubt sincere, but also delusional.
It's all about marketing. When Radiohead and a handful of other artists began offering their albums with the "name your price" model, many scoffed saying, "yeah, sure you can still make money that way…if your Radiohead." But that's just not true. They effectively cut out the middle man. Distribution has always absorbed the majority of profits from album sales. So we must use the tools we have at our disposal to make the most of digital distribution.
The lesser known band summits to itunes distribution. It's not for money. It's for exposure that would not be had otherwise. Beyond that, promotion of albums to the direct audience can be done through avenues like bandcamp, where the profits are considerably higher per download. While distributors absorb profits to varying degrees, they also absorb the cost of exposure equally in the scope of their reach. This profitable percentage to exposure ratio has been relatively unchanged over the years. It's a trade off that many independent artists welcome because you don't have to trade off one for the other. They work together.
Besides, we all know the money is made in touring: playing shows and selling merch.
I'm shamefully obliged to be the one to point out that it's "Pretty Woman," not "Pretty Women."
Best wishes,
-No Life
"Right now, there is a weird idea people are putting forth that, obviously, since it was a band that was formed rather than naturally occurred, it somehow must be illegitimate now, and the sophomore album is like, "OOH THE RUSE IS UP.""
There may be those select few who refuse to enjoy them based on the transparency of their shtick, but their sophomore album is more like, "OOH THIS KINDA SUCKS." With complete disregard for the hype and circumstances surrounding the existence of Sleigh Bells, the bottom line remains that Reign of Terror is just a huge disappointment compared to their previous efforts. Treats was a distinctly riff heavy accomplishment on Miller's part. But this time around, instead of upfront guitars complementing abrasive bass beats, generic metal chord progressions are just buried in the background.
Deftones self-titled. It's the culmination of all their efforts. Refines their previous, while most successfully treading new ground.

That is very cool!!!! |
Wow, I love it! I also love your faux painted walls--what a beautiful shade of terracotta that is in your dining room! And I adore your red glass bar lights, and what's that interesting looking plant stand you've got in the top picture? Okay, okay, I'm supposed to be looking at your rock, LOL. I really like it. I think it adds to the rustic look you've started. I would definitely keep it stopped at the cabinet like you've got, mostly because I also like the rest of your decor so much. But this is really, really nice! I love seeing people have some fun with their homes. Too many people are afraid to do too much--I think because the decorating shows are always thinking resale and worrying about appealing to each and every buyer out there (i.e., beige). I would love to see more pics when it's done! |

What a beautiful home you have! and the mosaic is lovely. that is slate correct? are you going to seal that before grout? because I think grout on that rock would be a bear to clean off if not sealed first. |
Way to go..You are definitely fast and have done a beautiful job. |
Beautiful job - I love the yellow/gold stones! |
Hi girls, Thanks I was hoping you would like it. Lori~ :) that is actually a topiary plant with my spice rack behind it. That does look weird in the pic. & We won't be moving, We plan on our kids (13 & 8) bringing our grand-kids here. Thanks for the compliments on the paint, I just ragged it with the darker living room color. Slow~I was so excited when you called me l'il heifer!!!!! Funny huh?! Emtnest~I used black grout and Calamity I would have LOVED to have had you here to help, it is the messiest thing ever! Wackyweeder~It is slate and I did have to seal it before grouting it. I just love you girls, Thanks so much! Means a lot to me... It has been so nice to look at my kitchen and be glad that I decided to do it. My husband wasn't sure he would like it, he thought it may be too much slate, then once I got the kitchen done he's the one that asked me to do the wall behind the bar stools. I'll post more picture soon.. |

Tactical Soldiers To Be Honored At Pope Air Field
Several tactical soldiers will get special recognition tomorrow at Pope Air Field in Fayetteville. Members of the 21st Special Tactical Squadron are being awarded for their service in Afghanistan. The unit is a highly-trained ground force that often works side-by-side with elite special operations forces such as Army Rangers and Navy SEALs. The Unit's commander, Lieutenant Colonel Spencer Cocanour says 38 soldiers will be honored.
He said,"Any given day at least 10 to 20 of them are going outside the wire. They're working with local villagers training them for their own security efforts, doing clearing operations or a bunch of other special operations."
Five of the honorees will be presented with the prestigious Bronze Star -- the nation's fourth-highest combat decoration. Many of the honorees are scheduled to arrive at the ceremony by way of a parachute jump onto Pope Field to begin the event.

Thai Tofu and Vegetable Curry
In this stew, pineapple juice replaces much of the coconut milk that would traditionally be used, a switch that lowers the fat content considerably. Though the list of ingredients may seem long, if you already have baked tofu on hand, you can throw this dish together fairly quickly. Using frozen cauliflower and green beans makes it even easier!
- 1 cup chopped onions
- 2 cups diced eggplant (1-inch cubes)
- 1 pound baked tofu
- 1/2-2 tbsp. Thai curry paste (depending on desired spiciness)
- 11/2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup lite coconut milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups small cauliflower florets
- 1 cup cut green beans (11/2-inch pieces)
- 1 cup chopped red bell peppers
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1 tbsp. soy sauce
- 3 tbsp. fresh lime or lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro or basil
- cooked rice
- a few fresh basil or cilantro sprigs
- chopped peanuts (optional)
In a covered non-stick soup pot, sauté the onions for about 5 minutes, adding water as necessary to prevent sticking. Stir in the eggplant and curry paste. Add the pineapple juice, coconut milk, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, and then add the cauliflower and green beans and cook for another 5 minutes. Stir in the baked tofu, peppers, tomatoes, soy sauce, lime or lemon juice, and cilantro or basil. Simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.
Serve on rice with a few fresh herb sprigs and, if desired, some chopped peanuts.

geographical name \kə-ˈrē-ə, especially South (ˌ)kō-\Definition of KOREA
(Concise Encyclopedia)Former kingdom, a peninsula (Korean peninsula) on the eastern coast of Asia. In 1948 it was partitioned into two republics, North Korea and South Korea. The Korean peninsula was probably settled in prehistoric times by Tungusic-speaking peoples who migrated in waves from Manchuria and Siberia. According to tradition, the ancient kingdom of Choson (Old Choson) was established in the northern part of the peninsula during the Bronze Age. Conquered by China in 108 BCE, it later developed into the Three Kingdoms of Silla, Koguryo, and Paekche. Silla conquered the other two in the 7th century CE and ruled until 936, when the Koryo kingdom became prominent. In the 13th century Koryo suffered a series of invasions by the Mongols but retained its political and cultural identity. Land reforms and the rise of a new bureaucracy led to the establishment of the kingdom of Choson in 1392. With its capital at Seoul, it was ruled by the Choson (Yi) dynasty (see Yi Songgye) until 1910. Invaded repeatedly by neighbouring countries, Choson attempted to shut out foreign contacts but was forced after 1873 to open ports to Japan. Rivalry over Korea and Manchuria brought on the Russo-Japanese War (1904–05), after which Korea became a Japanese protectorate. Formally annexed to Japan in 1910, it was freed from Japanese control in 1945 at the end of World War II. After the war it was divided into two zones of occupation, Soviet in the north and U.S. in the south. For Korea's later history, see North Korea and South Korea; see also Korean War.

OKLAHOMA CITY — The backdrop behind the Lakers' nightmarish season last year has mostly disappeared.
Dwight Howard left for Houston. Mike D'Antoni had a full training camp to implement his system. The Lakers' front office acquired a flurry of castoffs who fit D'Antoni's philosophy and show eagerness in adapting in any circumstances.
Well, except for one thing.
Pau Gasol still doesn't like how he's featured in D'Antoni's offense. The veteran forward recently has attributed his 14.4 points-per-game average on a career-low 41.7 percent shooting toward D'Antoni's system not featuring him enough in the post.
"It's also a nice excuse not to play hard," D'Antoni said. "You don't have trouble getting up to the pay stub line. You know what you need to do to get your check.
"They don't want to do it that way. I understand that. That's when you have to accept it or not. But there's no reason not to play hard."
Gasol showed that in the Lakers' game Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder at Chesapeake Energy Arena, but he hasn't done that consistently. He has allowed several frontcourt players to post-career highs, including Toronto's Amir Johnson (32 points), New Orlean's Anthony Davis (32), Washington's Nene (30) and Denver's Timofey Mozgov (23).
Gasol routinely has chosen to pop to the top of the key following screens instead of rolling to the basket.
"That's what he wants to do," D'Antoni said. "He does well doing it, but he knows our preference is to dive and post up."
D'Antoni joked Gasol would feel comfortable diving by saying "he looks pretty good in a speedo." But what about pick-and-rolls?
"I don't know why he wouldn't be comfortable," D'Antoni said.
Gasol prefers receiving the ball in the post, although the Lakers have only shot 34.6 percent in that area.
"And do nothing," D'Antoni said. "Basketball has changed. The way the game has played is changed. We have a system that works. Most of our time, we run that system."
The Lakers anticipated Gasol putting together an All-Star caliber season, considering Howard's defection to Houston thrust him into a larger offensive role that mirrored his championship seasons in 2009 and 2010. Gasol's also in the final year of a contract that pays him $19.3 million.
"It's surprising," D'Antoni said. "But I think it's surprising anytime. That's part of the job."
It also doesn't help that Gasol has suffered a variety of ailments this season, including respiratory issues, a mildly sprained right ankle and working himself back into shape after recovering from an offseason procedure on both of his knees. Kobe Bryant also recently suggested losing weight might jump-start his conditioning.
"He is a little sluggish," D'Antoni said. "But that will go away once he keeps playing. The biggest thing is that everybody to a man, we just have to play hard and worry about things less."

David Rosenthal, Keyboardist, Synth Programmer and Billy Joelâs Musical Director Finds HARMANâs Lexicon PCM Total Bundle Essential Live and In the Studio
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah â David Rosenthal has enjoyed a remarkably successful career as a keyboardist, synth programmer, orchestrator, and touring musician and that doesnât begin to cover it all. Rosenthal is also Billy Joelâs musical director, a role that recently has him performing worldwide at events like 12-12-12: The Concert for Sandy Relief and the upcoming New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival 2013. Besides working with Billy Joel for the past 20 years, heâs also worked with Bruce Springsteen, Enrique Iglesias, Elton John, Cyndi Lauper and many others, provided synth programming and musical direction for the Tony-winning Broadway Musical âMovinâ Outâ and runs Sonic Adventures Studio in New Jersey. The sonic adventure continues with Rosenthalâs recent discovery of HARMANâs Lexicon PCM Total Bundle reverb/effects plug-in.
âIâve been a Lexicon user since the early â90s,â said Rosenthal. âIn fact I was one of the people who contributed customized Music FX presets for the PCM 80 when they used to sell preset sound cards. Iâve used products like the Lexicon PCM 80, 81, 90, 91 and 480L and theyâve always been a big part of my sound.â
Rosenthal has always embraced the latest musical technologies, but it wasnât until recently that he felt that computers and software had reached the point where he could forego his outboard effects. He used to use banks of keyboards and racks of outboard effects processors because it was the only way he could get the sounds he needed live. Itâs only been in the past year or so that computer technology has gotten to the point where Rosenthal needed it to be.
âThe tech has turned the corner, thanks to resources like laptops with 16 GB of memory, better synth plug-ins, solid-state drives, 64-bit operating systems and plug-ins like the Lexicon PCM Total Bundle. Now everything can keep up, I have enough processing power and polyphonic capability and everything responds like a musical instrument.â He hasnât given up his cocoon of keyboards entirely, he still uses multiple keyboards live because he doesnât want to map a lot of sounds on a limited number of keyboards. âWhen Iâm on stage I want to think about playing, not about program changes and which buttons I have to push during a song.â
âThe Lexicon PCM Total Bundle doesnât sound like itâs close to the âLexicon soundâ â it is the Lexicon sound,â Rosenthal emphasized. âIt has the smooth reverb tails and that beautiful natural decay, and its algorithms donât âsmearâ the initial attack of my keyboards.â In live performances Rosenthal primarily uses a tweaked sound based on the Concert Hall algorithm that he calls âBright Keyboard Hall,â finding that it gives depth and spatiality to his keyboard sounds without getting too boomy in an arena or large hall.
In the studio, Rosenthal is still exploring the sonic possibilities of the PCM Total Bundle. âOther reverb plug-ins have fallen short for me and I have always used Lexicon hardware units for my important studio projects â until now. I also like the fact that the PCM Total Bundle gives me 100-percent total recall of my settings, which is an incredible timesaver in the studio and assures Iâll never lose any of my customized sounds.â
âThe PCM Total Bundle is exactly what I expected a Lexicon plug-in to sound like,â Rosenthal concluded. âNothing else sounds like a Lexicon reverb, and the PCM Total Bundle gives me the same sound quality and musicality Iâve come to rely on from Lexicon that I canât get anywhere else.â
The Lexicon PCM Total Bundle is designed to work with popular DAWs like Pro Tools and Logic, as well as with any other VST®, Audio Unit⢠or RTAS®-compatible platform. Compatible with Windows® Vista, XP and 7 and Macintosh® computers, it offers 14 unique Lexicon reverbs and effects, and hundreds of finely crafted studio presets. Its intuitive user interface provides control of key parameters with a graphical real-time full-color display and flexible sonic customization capabilities.
HARMAN (www.harman.com) designs, manufactures and markets a wide range of audio and infotainment solutions for the automotive, consumer and professional markets â supported by 15 leading brands, including AKG, Harman Kardon, Infinity, JBL, Lexicon and Mark Levinson. The company is admired by audiophiles across multiple generations and supports leading professional entertainers and the venues where they perform. More than 20 million automobiles on the road today are equipped with HARMAN audio and infotainment systems.

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

National Organization for Marriage (NOM) v. Sec. State of Florida
Plaintiff filed suit on September 22, 2010, to challenge a Florida statute that requires groups to register and report if they make over $5,000 of electioneering communications in a calendar year. Plaintiff argues that the state definition of "electioneering communication" is vague because it includes the "appeal to vote" test devised by the Supreme Court in Wisconsin Right to Life v. FEC, and that the disclosure requirements are overbroad insofar as they apply to "non-major-purpose" groups.

Hi. I'm new here and to gardening, so any advice is appreciated, but I have one question most specifically. I live on a West-facing hill in SW PA. I just converted an old woodpile/trash heap into a garden bed (great dark soil underneath!!) and the way I did it was by terracing with concrete test cylinders and sections of terra cotta sewage pipe (both free on craigslist!!). I've got all sorts of ideas of things I'd like to plant in the beds proper (although thoughts appreciated) but what I'm stuck on is the terra cotta pipes. They're filled with good soil and so I'd like to plant something in them, but I'm not sure what would thrive in the small diameters. The purple pipes are about 8" inside, and the red ones are about 4.5". The pipes are 10-12" deep, and connect underneath to soil, so I think water should be able to drain out ok. Other information: -The site as near as I can tell gets dappled sunlight 10-2, full sun from then on. -There are 15 big purple pipes, and around 30 skinny red ones. The beds are terraced and approximately 16'x4.5' (lower) and 16'x3' (upper) I am most interested in producing produce, although flower suggestions are welcome too. Picture of the garden: |
Follow-Up Postings:
From your picture it looks like you are using the pipes for retaining walls for a sloped area. I think I would plant on the terraces and the larger pipes and leave the smaller ones as a colorful retaining wall. Al |
Ironically, I plant tomatoes in pipes (10 inch work best). Mine are 3 feet high...and the tomato roots quickly run the whole depth! Your issue might be drainage. |
I vote for sedums and stonecrop in the small containers :) |

TRB Watch: Construction Manager-at-Risk Project Delivery for Highway Programs
Posted By Tina Grady Barbaccia On April 5, 2010 @ 1:21 pm In Research Papers,Web Exclusive Editorial | No Comments
by Russell Houston
Here's the latest research from the Transportation Research Board (TRB):
Construction Manager-at-Risk Project Delivery for Highway Programs
http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/ 162916.aspx
Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMR) project delivery (also called Construction Manager/ General Contractor or CM/GC) is an integrated team approach to the planning, design, and construction of a highway project, to control schedule and budget, and to ensure quality for the project owner. The team consists of the owner; the designer, who might be an in-house engineer; and the at-risk construction manager. The aim of this project delivery method is to engage at-risk construction expertise early in the design process to enhance constructability, manage risk, and facilitate concurrent execution of design and construction without the owner relinquishing control over the details of design as it would in a design-build project.
CMR project delivery has long been used in the building industry, but the use of CMR for federal-aid transportation projects requires Special Experimental Projects Number 14 approval. As a result, its use is relatively new in highway projects. A number of state and local transportation agencies have undertaken or experimented with CMR project delivery on road, bridge, and other projects.
To further expand knowledge on the CMR project delivery process within the highway industry, TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 402: Construction Manager-at-Risk Project Delivery for Highway Programs explores current methods in which state departments of transportation and other public engineering agencies are applying CMR project delivery to their construction projects. The synthesis identifies three different models for CMR project delivery in use, and examines practices and lessons learned that have been gleaned from the experiences of seven highway case studies and case studies from the airport, rail transit, and building industries.

Legislating and implementing welfare policy reforms: What works politically in Africa and why?
- Start date: 01 November 2012
- End date: 31 October 2015
"Just giving money to the poor" through social assistance programmes (including 'social pensions', other unconditional grants, conditional cash transfers, and emergency employment programmes) has both passionate advocates and strong opponents. Africa - which is the region of the world where poverty is most resilient - includes some of the countries with the longest histories of social assistance in the global South (South Africa and Mauritius) and is the only region in the world where more is now spent on social assistance programmes than on social insurance programmes.
This research programme examines the politics of welfare programmes in Africa, ie what 'works' politically and why. The research will analyse the political conditions and factors that either favour or impede the enactment or implementation of social assistance programmes.
The research will cover:
- agenda-setting
- elite and public opinion
- electoral, inter- and intra-party competition
- the roles of civil society, international organisations, and donors
- state institutions, technocrats and bureaucrats.
A crucially important question in the African context is how socio-economic inequalities and racial or ethnic diversity affect policy-making. Research will be conducted in mostly East and Southern African countries.

GOD'S WORD Translation (GW) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Listen to this message which I, the LORD, have spoken against you Israelites, against your whole family that I brought out of Egypt. | 1 Hear this word the LORD has spoken against you, O people of Israel--against the whole family I brought up out of Egypt: |
2 Out of all the families on earth, I have known no one else but you. That is why I am going to punish you for all your sins. | 2 "You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your sins." |
3 Do two people ever walk together without meeting first? | 3 Do two walk together unless they have agreed to do so? |
4 Does a lion roar in the forest if it has no prey? Does a young lion growl in its den unless it has caught something? | 4 Does a lion roar in the thicket when he has no prey? Does he growl in his den when he has caught nothing? |
5 Does a bird land in a trap on the ground if there's no bait in it? Does a trap spring up from the ground unless it has caught something? | 5 Does a bird fall into a trap on the ground where no snare has been set? Does a trap spring up from the earth when there is nothing to catch? |
6 If a ram's horn sounds an alarm in a city, won't the people be alarmed? If there is a disaster in a city, hasn't the LORD done it? | 6 When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble? When disaster comes to a city, has not the LORD caused it? |
7 Certainly, the Almighty LORD doesn't do anything unless he [first] reveals his secret to his servants the prophets. | 7 Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets. |
8 The lion has roared. Who isn't afraid? The Almighty LORD has spoken. Who can keep from prophesying? | 8 The lion has roared-- who will not fear? The Sovereign LORD has spoken-- who can but prophesy? |
9 Announce in the palaces of Ashdod and in the palaces of Egypt, "Gather together on the mountains of Samaria. See the widespread confusion and oppression in Samaria." | 9 Proclaim to the fortresses of Ashdod and to the fortresses of Egypt: "Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria; see the great unrest within her and the oppression among her people." |
10 Those who collect profits in their palaces through violent and destructive acts don't know how to do what is right, declares the LORD. | 10 "They do not know how to do right," declares the LORD, "who hoard plunder and loot in their fortresses." |
11 This is what the Almighty LORD says: An enemy will surround your land, strip you of your defenses, and loot your palaces. | 11 Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: "An enemy will overrun the land; he will pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses." |
12 This is what the LORD says: As a shepherd rescues two legs or a piece of an ear out of a lion's mouth, so the Israelites living in Samaria will be rescued, [having only] a corner of a bed or a piece of a couch. | 12 This is what the LORD says: "As a shepherd saves from the lion's mouth only two leg bones or a piece of an ear, so will the Israelites be saved, those who sit in Samaria on the edge of their beds and in Damascus on their couches." |
13 Listen, and testify against the descendants of Jacob, declares the Almighty LORD, the God of Armies. | 13 "Hear this and testify against the house of Jacob," declares the Lord, the LORD God Almighty. |
14 On the day I punish Israel for its disobedience, I will also destroy the altars at Bethel. The horns of the altar will be cut off and will fall to the ground. | 14 "On the day I punish Israel for her sins, I will destroy the altars of Bethel; the horns of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground. |
15 I will tear down winter houses as well as summer houses. Houses [decorated] with ivory will be destroyed. Mansions will be demolished, declares the LORD. | 15 I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses adorned with ivory will be destroyed and the mansions will be demolished," declares the LORD. |

U2 have released a video for their new track, "Invisible."
Directed by Mark Romanek, the video was shot in black and white in a Santa Monica, California airport hangar over three days last month.
In sync with its TV debut on February 2, U2 offered a 24-hr free download of the track, with sponsor Bank Of America donating $1 per download to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which provides life-saving HIV/AIDS treatment, testing and prevention services to tens of millions of people in the world's poorest countries.
The free download generated more than $3 million for the (RED) campaign.
The band are continuing to support the cause with "Invisible" now on sale and proceeds from every iTunes download going to fight AIDS.

on December 27, 2013Paul Ryan, the zombie-eyed granny starver from the state of Wisconsin and First Runner-up in our most recent vice-presidential pageant, is death on people who don't work for a living. Unemployment benefits create a culture of entitlement, after all. The modern welfare state destroys the work ethic that made America the kind of place where a burger-flipping kid from Janesville, only through luck and pluck and Social Security survivor benefits (You're welcome, dickhead.), could rise to a point where Joe Biden laughed at him on national TV. Paul Ryan believes that government benefits have a corrosive effect on society, depriving its members of the character-building effects of poverty and hunger. He believes in the salvific effect of money earned in the perfect free-enterprise system.
After years of remaining neutral on an off-reservation casino in Kenosha, U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan of Janesville signaled Thursday that he supported a casino plan as long as competing tribes were on board. He also credited Gov. Scott Walker for taking his time and not rushing a decision on the Menominee tribe's efforts to build an $800 million gambling complex. For months, Walker has been weighing a decision on the project, which has faced opposition from the Forest County Potawatomi, who operate a Milwaukee casino. The Ho-Chunk, with casinos near Madison and Baraboo, have also opposed the project. "I would like to think they could have a win-win situation and make it to the benefit for everybody. That would be my preference," Ryan said during an interview with reporters and editors of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Ryan added, "It would be great to see them come up with a system where no one loses and everyone gains and we net-create jobs. So how you have an arrangement where the Potawatomi have a stake in Kenosha, I don't know how you'd do it. Have some kind of an arrangement where they can make it mutually beneficial."
Considering that Ryan's basic position is that we also should turn Social Security and Medicare over to his cronies in the Wall Street casino, I guess there's a sort of consistency there in his deep affection for economic parasites.

I have been sewing since I was a little girl, but I have never actually owned a sewing machine. When I was young, I used Granny's. When I was older, I used Mom's. About five years ago, I was using my sister's and my niece's. Last year, my Mom decided to give up sewing because it was too much strain on her eyes. With six daughters, there was no way she would be able to choose who got her machine. Being quick like a bunny, I snagged it with the caveat that I was only holding on to it and not laying claim to it.
Then one day, I saw a vintage Singer Featherweight in Heather Ross's book, Weekend Sewing. I fell in love immediately. One day, I would own a white Singer Featherweight.
A several months ago, my dear friend, Sarah, came up with a brilliant idea. She decided to pool all the money from gifts she wanted to give me (a Christmas gift, a birthday gift, a thank you gift) into one fund. She invited other friends and family to join in if they wanted. Then last month, Sarah and my friends presented me with this beautiful Singer Featherweight.
Of course, I was floored; such an elaborate gift. I'm usually pretty bad at accepting gifts (mostly because I'm never fully convinced I deserve them, something I'm working on), but on this occasion, I was beyond thrilled. The first thing I made? One of these bow clutches by Elm Street Life.
I have so much to learn about my new sewing machine, but I've already started collecting different attachments. In a cute shop downtown, I bought a little tin box full of different attachments for only $10! As I discover what each on does, and as I learn all the ways I can use this machine, I plan to share that knowledge with everyone.
Oh, you may be interested in why I named her Ella. One of my favorite parts about sewing is listening to jazz music while I work. My favorite jazz singer? Why, Ella Fitzgerald, of course! So I named my Singer after my favorite jazz singer (see what I did there?).
If you know of any great Singer Featherweight resources, please let me know in the comments below. If you have a Featherweight, how did you come by yours?

Consumer spending could be stabilizing
Posted onU.S. retail sales, excluding automobiles, rose in the first two months of 2009.
According to the Financial Post, the increase suggests U. S. consumer spending — the main driver of the economy for years — may be stabilizing.
"The latest retail sales report is an important one, for it increases the probability that this recession is starting to wind down," Bernard Baumohl, chief global economist with the Economic Outlook Group, told the newspaper.

A couple of probably dumb questions. I buy tons of candles. I don't burn them I put them on the candle melter things since it seems safer. Is there anything I can do with all the candles I have after they have lost their scent?
Next question. If I want to make candles to just put on the burners, so without wicks, what would be the easiest way to do it. I spend a small fortune on candles so I might as well invest the money and make it a hobby and be able to make the scents I love but sometimes can't find. Thank you in advance. Vicci |

Do you have a local craft/hobby store nearby? A lot of these stores now carry soy wax-- it's cleaner & isn't a pain in the butt to work with. All you have to do is heat the wax (most are microwavable or can be done on the stove top in a double boiler), add the scent (also obtainable at craft stores) at a rate of 1 oz scent to 1 # wax & pour into a heat-resistant container. Let it "cure" for a few days, then use in your warmer. Obviously, if you're not going to light it, you don't need a wick. If you think you're going to go through LOTS of scent, here are a few sites I've found have good results for the price:(search them as I don't have exact names) Gelluminations, Cajuns Candles, Save on Scents, and Candles & Supplies. I think all of them also sell soy wax, but it's heavy & you have to take into account shipping costs if you can't find it locally. Good luck |
If you make your candles out of soy wax, you can re-use the wax after it has lost its scent. You can re-melt and re-scent it or mix it with a carrier oil & plant butter (such has jojoba oil & shea butter) to make lotion bars. |

If you make body bars out of candle soy, make sure that your fragrance oil is body safe! Not all of them are. |
Good point simplemary. Thanks for adding that. Many Fragrance oils are good for candles and body products, but you do need to read the labels. |

Rear wipers not working in 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan
Has anybody had any issues with the rear wipers not working in Dodge Grand Caravan??
masterpaul1 Posts: 421
masterpaul1 Posts: 421Hi rorytate,
I'm mechanically inclined, so for me, it was very easy. I would say the hardiest part was trying to pry off the tailgate cover, without braking or damaging any of the plastic fasteners. Once off, it was pretty easy from there. If I remember correctly, The first thing you want to do is disconnect the battery. (I think I disconnected the negative battery cable only.) Remove the whole wiper arm assembly. (Save the black plastic piece, that fits in the hole in the window.) Remove all the screws, before trying to pry off the tailgate cover. (I remember two where in the handle on the tailgate cover.) When prying off the cover, try to position your flat tool as close a possible to where the plastic fasteners are. Pry each one off slowly. If I remember correctly, there is a piece of black tar looking paper, once the tailgate cover is removed. Once you remove this, just pull it off but don't damage it, you should see the wiper motor. Disconnect all wires to the motor and remove the three screws. Once you have installed the new motor and re connected the wires, make sure it works by re connecting the battery and turning on the rear wiper. Then reverse the process. You should be able to use a closed fist to reinstall the tailgate cover. (Make sure to hit your fist on top of the plastic fasteners.) Let me know how it worked out. -
rorytate Posts: 21thats good information - thanks! How much was it for the new motor and where did you get it? I was thinking of hitting up the junkers to see if i can get it for less than $20...and at the same time - practicing the above so i don't have to worry about not going in to my own not knowing what i was doing...kind of like a free seminar

This is another great video from her. "Don't Wanna Dance" is still my favorite though!
Beautiful cover. It's amazing to get to hear unreleased tracks from such an musical icon…the album really captures the essence of what people loved about Johnny Cash.
Hope this is true! I'm hooked on Daft Punk's video for Lose Yourself To Dance…can't stand still listening to it :)
The album is streaming on NPR, so happy the wait is over! My favorite song so far is Keep Your Head Up :)
Haha I love how ridiculous these guys are. Stoked that I can stream the new album on Rdio, I've been so impatient for this release I don't think I could've made it until the 17th!
Sly Stone is an incredible musician. It's great to hear so much unreleased material on Higher, I especially like "Dynamite"
Really wish I could've seen Passion Pit! Their new album is amazing it would've been great to hear that stuff live, I've been stuck on the music video for Constant Conversations… http://youtu.be/EBLuWKnKIn0
This is the perfect release for 4/20, never imagined Willie Nelson and Snoop Dog doing a track together! I can't wait for Willie Nelson's new album on 5/15

I just purchased my first Red Abyssinian Banana (Ensete ventricosum 'Maurelli') and have it planted in the ground with lots of amendments - manure, peat and bone meal - as I learned on this forum. Boy is he happy. New leaves already and smiles all around. :)
So here's my question. I live in Jacksonville, Florida, which is located in the northeast corner of the state. Even though yes, it is Florida, we get a couple of hard freezes every year - low of 27.6 this year for several hours. The freezes turn most everything brown and some tender plants freeze back to the roots. When a Maurelli freezes back, assuming it doesn't die, does it basically have to start over each year with new growth from the ground up? So will you have the same height plant - 4-6' - each year? Or will it come back a little bigger each year due to the established roots? What I'm trying to say is, will I ever have an 8' or 10' tall banana? Since it is planted in the ground, I won't be bringing it in, and it will only be heavily mulched for protection, so it will almost certainly get some freeze burn. Thank you so much in advance!

Jim, Thanks so much for the reply and the photos. Wow, yours is huge! Does yours stay in the ground year-round? Or do you dig it up and take it in for the winter? In the bottom photo, was it being freshly planted for Spring, or were you just adding goodies/amendments? Also, what is that wrapped around the trunk in the top photo? Boy, I can't wait for mine to get that big. Here's how it looks today. It's about 2 1/2 feet tall: Carol |

This guy is putting up a new leaf about every three to four days. Unbelievable! He has four full leaves and is working on his fifth. I could make a photo flip book of its growth. Carol |

Five leaves up, working on the sixth! |

Memo reveals case for killing Americans
It's just another example of Obama being drunk with power and his blatant disregard for our Constitution. Drone strikes on Americans if they are an "imminent threat to national security.." Who decides what a threat to national security is, especially with people like Janet Napolitano calling the Tea Party terrorists? I never thought I would see the day that I agreed with the ACLU, but it seems like nothing's impossible these days! My goodness, I can't believe over half the country still believes in this guy.
