Thank you all! I'm grateful to be remembered. There's been so much fun and celebration lately I'm a little overwhelmed. Earlier in the week I went out to dinner and Cirque du Soleil with a couple of good friends. Yesterday I had my third of three cocktail making classes, went home to recover from the "homework" for a little while, and then went to an unbelievably fabulous dinner with a couple we really like to celebrate her birthday and mine, which are within days of one another's. Tonight, this same friend and I are ditching our husbands to go out and celebrate all over again with a girlfriend. Tomorrow night Steve and I are meeting a couple and their young child for dinner to celebrate my birthday and her "Name Day" (a big deal in Eastern European circles). Later in the week Steve and I hop on a plane to spend nine days in Lisbon, Portugal. He's speaking at a medical conference and I'm along for the adventure. I have a market tour/cooking class scheduled for myself on one of the days he's busy, and I'm confident I can entertain myself for a couple days until his conference is over and we can both go play for the rest of the trip. I'm still tutoring ESL about six hours a week, and learning new things at work. In a nutshell, I'm busy, but it's mostly "good busy." Dorph, I love the whole pagan-fertility-festival aspect of my birthday. Spring is, by far, my favorite season, and if I could have chosen a day to be born, this would have been it! mwheel, be careful what you wish for! Here are a couple photos I snapped earlier today: Izzy is on the "injured reserve list" after piercing her paw with an unknown object while standing in nasty dirty muck yesterday (she was having a the time of her life up until that moment). She's dazed and confused on pain killers and doesn't seem to mind her inflatable airplane pillow at all. This is Toolie out by the daffodils in our back yard. She's getting so big, but is still much smaller than Izzy. Tallulah isn't very good at sitting still for photos. This one made me laugh. |
Happy birthday Michelle, I hope you have many many more. So sorry to see your injured dog. |
Oh, Michelle, thanks so much for posting the pictures; hope Izzy's injured paw heals quickly. I like the way you celebrate your birthday; much more fun than doing it all in 24 hours. :>) |
Happy birthday Michelle if a bit late but the week is yours and sounds like a blast. |
I know I've already said it, but I have to say it again "Happy Birthday!" I'm certain you enjoyed it. Hope you get to rest from all your revelry! |
Have been away from a computer for a few days but Happy belated birthday. Know you will enjoy Lisbon, we love it and the surrounding cities. |

Date 2008-04-15 Availability unrestricted Abstract This research is important because it has identified a gap in the existing knowledge base. A term is therefore coined to label a computer-based test mode effect, the so-called Item Randomisation Effect, discussed in detail in this thesis. Item Randomisation Effect is a test mode effect occurring in computer-based testing contexts, especially noticeable in test-takers that may be susceptible to test anxiety. The practise of randomising multiple choice items in computer-based test venues is commonplace, mainly as a deterrent for cheating. Previous research attempted to determine the degree of equivalence across testing modalities of any test. The need was to ensure test-takers in paper-based tests would not have an advantage/disadvantage over test-takers given the same test in a computer-based mode. Such studies have a nomothetic perspective. This research contrasts with those earlier studies in that it has an ideographic perspective because it is concerned with the performance of individuals taking any test in the computer-based modality. This subtle difference in perspective may account for the apparent gap in the existing educational research literature. Evidence of Item Randomisation Effect was found in this study but further research into this test mode effect is necessary.© University of Pretoria 2007

However, I was able to make it work without this before. For some weird reason it just pops out randomly, each time I do an update from SVN...
I wanted to start learning Eclipse RCP (Rich Client Platform) and was following a tutorial here, but I was already stuck on the first step (getting started). Friend google made me find this, and this.
Basically, I didn't install the RCP plugin and to quote from those two links:
Lots of people report that if they try this they can only select a "Generic" entry. The common source of this problem seems to be that you did not download the package "Eclipse for RCP/Plug-in Developers". Please see Eclipse Installation .
You might have to click on "More Packages" to see the RCP download package.
On the webpage of eclipse (www.eclipse.org), click on DOWNLOADS. Download the package "Eclipse for RCP/Plug-in Developers".
I'll be posting more about RCP once I finish setting up my IDE. :)

Ozzy retiring after two more albums
Ozzy Osbourne has revealed that he will make two more albums then draw the curtain on his music career.
Speaking to USA Today, the Black Sabbath rocker admitted that the LPs may take some time as he is struggling to master the music software he intended to use to record the new material.
He said: "I am recording another album soon. I've got a ProTools machine downstairs in my house now, I record from home now. I can't turn the f***ing thing on. It's like the brain of the house.
"But when you have somebody who knows what they are doing, it's so easy to make records now, it's not even funny. The art of making records is somewhat diminishing. It's taking the passion out of it. But I will try to give it as much real me as I can."
He added: "I want to make two albums. Make one and go out on that one, and make another one and go out on that. Time is very valuable to me now. I'm 60 this December. It doesn't seem ten years since I was 50, it really doesn't. My mission now is to do as much as I can."

Ohhh nooo this is sooo sad :( I'd like so much to see him at a concert ! Ozzy, please come to France for your next tour !

It doesn't mean he has to make 3 records. It just means that his record label has to be with Sony until the contract ends (3 albums) or he retires.

Ozzy do what Ozzy does, if he does 2 more albums, HELL YEAH !. If he wants to retire, be my guest, only thing i hope in my life is that i get to see you live one more time playing Your own music and not Sabbath.
Last time i saw you on stage with Sabbath i cried when you entered the stage, and hope you have a great life, do well, and that your family also gets along well.
God bless you Ozzy, love you to bits.

why I may be happy to hear that there will be two CDs, it rips my heart out to hear that there are and will be only two more ever. Ozz is my life and my world. I would just die without him. My only hope now is that when he ever needs a home help aid that they will hire me. Oh Ozz, why do you rip at my heart so? Don't you realize how much a fan cannot fucntion without you.

I guess I made you twice

I will tell I'm OK,
But deep inside I'm afraid"

im running fast but getting nowhere.
i see the light but i never get there.

The darkest
I didn't know and always had question in my head: Will Ozz release new albums. I was hoping and now here I see the citation that says that The Great and Terrible is planning two albums. I am f...ing so glad. Yes Ozz is 60 and time is running but f...ing time, damn it, won't overpower our Ozz. Ozz
I'm quite impatient to hold Ozzy's new album in my hands. You know, man, it is something like my dream now.
Yea, Great Oz deserves his piece of rest after all that he got through. But to be honest I'd like Ozzy making music as long as he feels he can.
Ozzy kicks f....ing ass
'I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you have the role'
- comments(0)
im happy with that...thats very fair....goddamnit if anyone deserves a happy retirement it's Ozz! thankyou for the music and what magic will come...
You're my religion, you're my reason to live.
You are the heaven in my hell.
We've been together for a long long time,
And i just can't live without you.
No matter what you do, i'm here for you......

The explosive best seller, translated from the French, Indignez-Vous ! |
In 2011, one of the names given to the 2011 Spanish protests against corruption and bipartisan politics was Los Indignados (The Outraged), taken from the title of the book's translation there (¡Indignados!). The Spanish protests later inspired other protests all around the world, including Greece, Israel and Occupy Wall Street in the United States. This book has been translated into English, German, Spanish, Italian, Basque, Catalan, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, Romanian, Greek and Hebrew. More translations are planned in Slovenian, Korean, Japanese, Swedish, Chinese and other languages. |
Time for Outrage! is the English translation of the bestselling tract Indignez-vous ! by the German-born French diplomat, member of the French Resistance and concentration camp survivor Stéphane Hessel. Published in France in 2010, it has sold nearly 1.5 million copies in France and has been translated into numerous other languages"Indignez-Vous! is creating the sort of stir in France. Emile Zola did in 1898, when he published J'accuse!" The National Post"Like a song you hum or a film you recommend to friends, Indignez-Vous ! crystallises the spirit of the time. To buy it is a militant act, a gesture towards community and participation in a collective emotion." Libération"The book urges the French, and everyone else, to recapture the wartime spirit of resistance to the Nazis by rejecting the "insolent, selfish" power of money and markets and by defending the social "values of modern democracy." IndependentStéphane Hessel, Resistance fighter and concentration camp survivor, tells the young of today that their lives and liberties are worth fighting for. Remembering the ideals for which he risked his life, while never forgetting the evils against which he struggled, the now 94-year-old writer and diplomat calls on all of us to take back the rights that have slowly slipped away since the Second World War ended. As sales of this masterful polemic approach a million in France, it is published here for the first time in English. " to create is to resist, to resist is to create "Stéphane Hessel was born in Germany in 1917, emigrated with his Jewish writer father and mother to France in 1924 and fought in the French Army in 1940. From a German prisoner of war camp, he escaped to join General Charles de Gaulle's Free French in London. On his clandestine return to organise the Resistance in France, he was captured, tortured and sent to concentration camps. He escaped death to work after the war on drafting the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, whose ideals he defends passionately to this day. |

The order of the flats is given by the mnemonic "*B*attle *E*nds *A*nd *D*own *G*oes *C*harles' *F*ather". What is the history behind this strange phrase?
closed as too localized by Wheat Williams, luser droog, Jason W, American Luke, Dr Mayhem♦ Mar 19 '13 at 9:50This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question. |
From J.R.'s answer on the English Language and Usage Stack Exchange site it dates back at least as far as 1885 since J.R. unearthed a charming quote from Educational Plans in Music Teaching, in The Quarterly Music Review, Vol. 1, 1885 where it is attributed it to a "government schoolmistress". |
Unlike other mnemonics for key signature layouts such as BEADGCF ( bead + Greatest Common Factor) or for sharps, fat cats go dancing at elegant balls, the mnemonic for flats, Battle Ends And Down Goes Charles' Father, can be reversed as "Father Charles Goes Down And Ends Battle" to give the order of sharps. That doesn't help with the etymology, but it explains why it has endured despite its awkwardness. |
It relates back to the circle of fifths; in this case you are going backwards (counter clockwise in conventional diagrams).
I don't believe that the mnemonic has any deep significance; it just fits the pattern of letters. |

The whiskey barrel only had one drainage hole and the soil mix I used was too water retentive, which I suspect prevented my watermelons from reaching their genetic potential.
I'm going to try again this year to see if I can do better. I added several additional drainage holes to the barrel and raised it off the ground. I've filled it with 30 gallons of Al's 5-1-1 (pine bark fines, peat and perlite with lime) and I'm planning to grow Tiger Baby watermelons this year. I would love to hear from anyone else who has grown melons in containers or anyone else with thoughts about my plans. |

I've grown watermelons in the ground, with good results, although I didn't think that I was doing it correctly. This year I'm trying them in a container. I've got 2 Grover Delancy watermelons, together with 2 muskmelons in a 30 gal container. I'm going to let them overflow the sides of the container and run. The thing I found important with melons is to start them early, so they have a decent growing season to mature. They also love the heat. This is my first time growing them in a container, so I am excited and hope they do well. When I grew them in the ground, I had poor drainage, and overcrowded them, but still got lots of melons. I had a 40 pounder! I don't think they are hard to grow, but they like heat, food, and a long season. I never tried bush types. Blacktail Mountain is an early maturer. |
I'm trying it this year but I've found a whole lot more about what doesn't work than what does. I've got one watermelon in a 30-gal tub with two Cayenne peppers. That watermelon is growing like mad but no fruit yet. BTW, the peppers that are sharing that tub are not doing nearly as well as the peppers that have their own pot. I've also got several watermelons in smaller (too-small) pots. They're growing and spreading out and flowering so maybe they'll do something but I'm not really hopeful. I've also got a cantaloupe alone in an 18-gal tub. Again, it's growing and flowering like crazy but only one fruit about the size of a softball so far. Just for grins (and to make my 6 year old happy) I also planted a pumpkin in an 18-gal tub and 3 in a 30-gal tub. They've got leaves the size of my head and vines as big around as two fingers but that's all so far. The biggest problem I'm having with the melons and the pumpkins is keeping them watered. I'm just south of Atlanta and they're in full sun (about 14 hours a day right now). I definitely have to water them twice a day most days and sometimes more. The past few days, it seems like every 4-5 hours I look and they're drooping and wilty! I've heard the fruits are really thirsty so I don't know how it's going to be if/when they actually set fruit. I'm so glad to find somebody else who's giving it a try though because I was beginning to think I was crazy! I'm so new to all this that I don't know what to expect and if it fails, I can't really tell if it's just me or what. :) |
Your watermelons look much better than mine up here in zone 5. My vines don't look as healthy. Smaller and lighter green leaves.........maybe I should fertilize more. I worry about overwatering, but I don't think that is possible with the fast draining mix I'm using, especially once the vines take off like you said. I do have one melon that has set, but is still very small, and possibly a second. My muskmelons are flowering alot, but no fruit yet. I hope soon, because the female blossoms are coming on strong now. I really miss the bee population we had at our last home. |

"The heroe's journy took him through mountains and deserts".
"The treasure, however, was far away, beyond a great desert"
"How will the good captain ever return home? The vast desert is between him and his lands..."
The desert. The vast, deadly, terrible desert. Rolling dunes and cliffs of red stone, cracked sun scorched earth and strange peoples with gutteral tongues and ebony skins. In fairytales and in mythology, the desert is never a goal. It is an obstacle. A phase in the journy. A danger to be fought against. In the Grimm Lands, all of this exist(and more), in the Desert in Between, the least known great area of the Lands. Least known, naturally, because one can never reach it by desiring to reach it. The great Desert is alwayes, well, in Between. Between you and your goal, perheps, or Between you and the enemy. It can only be reached by not wanting to reach it. The faster one wants to get to his goal, the greater is the chance that this goal lies just beyond the Desert. This is the nature of the Grimm Lands.
The Desert is dangerous, cruel and unforgiving, just like everything else in the Grimm Lands. The sun is a constant hazard. The winds and the sand are another. At night, it is freezing and in the day it is boiling hot. And there is no water. And I have not even yet started with the denziens of it! There are violent nomads and slave traders, drugged cannibal barbarians and warriors of the sand. There are toxic animals all over the ground and beneath any rock, and great and desperate beasts like lions and leopards.
But like everything else, there is also a strange and terrible beauty to the Desert, a wonder that can not be found anywhere else. In the deep Desert, one can find the dangerous tombs of long forgotten god kings. Great dusty cities where the bazaars are full of exotic riches and where the golden domes are alwayes surrounded by flying carpets. Mad sultans and power hungry viziers, cunning djinni and disgusting ghouls. There are forty thieves who live in an invisible cave. There are wondering alchemists seeking enlightment under the cruel sun. Some say that even farther in(which is only an expression, because the true size of the Desert is infinite) smoke belching trains get constantly attacked by grizzled outlaws, and cowboys fight indians in desolate valleys and dirty mining towns.
Wellcome to the Desert.

I know loop vents are typically for island sinks, but a large picture window is creating an obstruction to run a new vent for a sink we are relocating and I am hoping we can reuse the vent that is already in place with a few modifications. As mentioned, the sink will be centered on a large picture window. This will put the old vent line upstream of the new sink. I intend to install a loop vent in the sink cab, but I can't run a new vent to the right of the window to tie it into. So, I am hoping the following will work out. I want to detach the old vent from the waste line and run it horizontally past the new vent line just below the kitchen floor in the basement (sloped appropriately). This run would be about 6 feet horizontally and would be about 4 feet vertically above the waste line. The relocated vent line would be the last attachment to the waste line before it exits to the septic tank. In Massachusetts, the vent line the loop vent attachs to must continue down to the waste line and terminate there, which is a state modification to the UPC code. AAVs are prohibited. So, if you were facing the kitchen sink cabinet, the loop vent would penetrate through the cabinet floor (drain and vent pipes). In the basement, you would see the vent line going to the roof on the left and it taking a sloped right turn above your head and in the direction of the waste flow. The two lines from the sink would come down and attach to the waste line, which is about chest height. The vent line from the sink would attach to the external vent pipe, which would be parallel to it. Everything is positioned correctly, but I just don't know if I am allowed to make that jog in the external vent line to get the pipe in the proper location. Hopefully the diagram makes it clearer. Look forward to any input or suggestions. Thanks in advance! |

The line your showing as required by Mass is not correct I have annoted a correct loop vent for Mass on the right side |
Hi, Thanks so much for your feedback. Your diagram makes my project a heck of a lot less complicated now, as my primary concern all along was that the vent pipe had to be forward of all the other plumbing in context to the direction of the waste flow and drain line (left to right in my diagram). Everything I saw elsewhere, including here, showed the waste running right to left and the vent as the last pipe in the line. Consequently, I thought I would have to install the reverse of what the pictures showed to accommodate for the different flow direction in my waste line. Thanks again! |

Ive decided to use Varathane water based floor finish instead of oil based. The description mentions self leveling and I had good luck with the oil version. SO… wondering if yall could help me to get informed on how to apply the finish and have it turn out well. I understand it is somewhat different than applying oil which is a bummer bc it took a while to perfect my oil based technique. Applicator - says to apply with brush or pad. Not supposed to use lambswool pad, so what other kinds of pads are there? I think a brush would be too small. Wouldn't I want something that puts down a good amount of product quickly so I can be working into a wet edge? Somewhere I read about using foam brush or roller - is that true? Don't I have to worry about bubbles the same as when applying oil based? Foam brush created LOTS of bubbles with oil based as I recall. There were also the issues with stirring too fast which created bubbles - is it a similar thing with the water based? "Thin coat" - how thin is thin? I mean I could get a REALLY thin polish on the surface, or I could do a medium amount that creates a nice wet layer but not so much that I flood it or create pools of the stuff. Here's my plan: Anything you'd add? Any tips, tricks I should be aware of? BTW - is there much difference between satin and semi gloss in terms of wear? Thanks in advance - yall were such a great help back in 06 Im hoping you'll come thru for me again! |

The "brush" is not a small paint brush, but a very short haired but wide 'brush' on a pole. It looks almost like a squeegee but with short hairs instead of a rubber edge. |

Men's Basketball Team Volunteers at Atwood Primary School
- CMB player hoists a 2nd grader from Atwood Primary School up to the net for a slam dunk!
The Colby men's basketball team must have looked a bit intimidating towering over the K-2nd graders at the Atwood Primary School in Oakland last week. Standing erect at an average of 6'3" these men quickly quelled their intimidation factor by engaging these young students. The team participated in two days of volunteerism at the Atwood Primary School. The first day the men read to kindergartners and provided a fun story-time. The second day the Colby students engaged in playful games and activities during recess period with the K-2nd graders.
Exemplary Student-Athlete John Gilboy Featured in Local Paper
John Gilboy, a senior two-sport athlete, redefines what it means to be a student-athlete here at Colby College. Gilboy, a co-captain of both the football team and the indoor track team, takes pride in all that he does representing his school. He balances a rigorous academic schedule with a dual major in classical civilizations and biochemistry. Managing to play two sports and handle such a rigorous workload is quite a feat; however, Gilboy manages all this with a 3.7 GPA. The Morning Sentinel had an amazing article capturing just how special John Gilboy is, and how he manages to excel both in the classroom and on the fields.

Pioneer Giving
For more than 85 years, DuPont Pioneer has been working to improve the lives of farm families and rural communities. As the first company to research, develop and sell hybrid seed corn in 1926, our focus was helping farmers increase productivity of corn to support their families, invest in their farms and build stronger rural communities. Many things have changed in eight decades, but our focus is still the same: helping farmers be more productive, and supporting the communities in which our employees and customers live and work.
Our Pioneer Giving program works to improve food security by advancing agriculture through science, education, and innovation. We are also committed to enhancing the quality of life for farmers and their communities globally.
Pioneer sales representatives and business teams are important parts of their communities, so the Pioneer Giving process begins with them. Eligible community organizations include local schools, public charities and 501c3 organizations.
Pioneer's Giving Program provides up to $5,000 for a project or program which focuses on the following:
Food Security. We're faced with ensuring food security for millions of people today who don't know where their next meal will come from, and working toward a future of feeding 9 billion people around the world by 2050.
Food security support projects include school to home backpack meal programs, food banks, rural meal delivery, congregate meal programs, meals on wheels programs, community gardens.
Program examples include: -
Education Programs. Education — especially agriculture and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) — is the key to continuing advancements required in agriculture. Increasing productivity, preserving natural resources, developing healthier plants, oils and animals … it will take a new generation of researchers, agronomists, scientists and farmers to meet lofty goals.
Program examples include: -
Community Betterment. We support programs and projects that create sustainable infrastructure to benefit communities in which our employees and customers live and work. First responders, including volunteer fire departments, are essential to the health and safety of many rural communities, so Pioneer has established several programs to provide necessary equipment and support.
Program examples include:
Contact your local Pioneer sales representative or business team for more details on program applications.
Employee Programs
Our employees share Pioneer's commitment to bettering society. Supporting the organizations and causes to which our employees contribute further improves our communities, while facilitating our goal of recruiting and retaining what we consider the best and brightest workforce in the world.

People with type two diabetes may find Fenugreek Seed beneficial for normalizing high blood sugar levels. The chemical structure of the saponins found in the seeds of Fenugreek are amazingly similar to that of steroidal hormones and estrogen.

The JLCO with Wynton Marsalis Reviewed by the Washington Post
When Marsalis and his orchestra go to Washington, big-band returns with a bang Who says jazz can't draw an audience? On Sunday, Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra presented a performance of uncompromising big-band jazz to a wildly appreciative audience at the sold-out Kennedy Center Concert Hall. It's been 28 years since the ever-youthful Marsalis made his Washington debut, and by now it seems clear that the Lincoln Center Orchestra – JLCO, for short – may be his greatest achievement. Before the concert, Marsalis was honored for his work with the Capitol Jazz Project, a middle-school jazz curriculum… Keep reading »

New PBS Series To Showcase Ten Buildings That Changed America
These days it seems increasingly rare that we take a moment out of our busy schedules to pause and appreciate our surroundings: downtown skyscrapers, grand civic buildings, or the mundane background buildings along our streets. To many, those soaring steel towers are old news, but have you ever stopped to picture a Manhattan without skyscrapers, or a courthouse in Washington, DC that didn't resemble a Greek or Roman temple, or how about an America without shopping malls? (Unimaginable. Right?)
Dan Protress, writer and producer of the new PBS television series 10 Buildings that Changed America, certainly has. The series, hosted by Emmy-award winning producer Geoffrey Baer, proves that architecture is the cultural back-bone of any society. The show was created to celebrate and explore ten of the most influential American buildings—and the architect's that designed them—that dramatically altered the architectural landscape of this country.
Exploring Kappe in the Valley
The Southern California chapter of the Society of Architectural Historians (SAH) recently capped off a Ray Kappe-focused weekend with a home tour around Kappe's many Sherman Oaks homes. As part of the series, The Architect's Newspaper got a chance to peek inside one of Kappe's earliest works, the Dr. and Mrs. Robert Hayes House.

I'm moveing in with my grandaughter and husband ,They brought a tenroom house with a "grandmother suit"I'll be home all day while they are working to pay for the "castle"I'll be lonely because I used to live in a senior apartment and there was always someone to talk to.I had to give up my dog ten years ago and I want to try again.Am I too old?I'm in pretty good health but just "old"eighty years to be truthful.The dog will outlive me but they said they would take up were I leave off. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I see no reason why you shouldn't have a pet. My mother, at 91 yrs, just recently lost her cat and I think she's considering getting another one. I would suggest you contact rescue groups that foster pets and look at adopting a teen-age dog. That way you'll know the personality, it should already have some basics in house training, and you won't have to deal with the puppy stage. |
My mother got her precious little Daisy at our local shelter and it was a match made in heaven for both of them. Mama was seventy eight then and Daisy was in fact a 'teenager', just like Annz suggested. Mama lived to be ninety one, and little Daisy died just months after my mother passed away, by then an old dog. For all practical purposes, she spent her lifetime as a companion for my elderly mother. I give thanks their paths crossed, because who doesn't need a constant companion who is faithful, loving and fun? You have very much to offer to a dog, and if it will enrich your life, and some dear dog somewhere needs a home with someone who has a lot of time to spoil them.......especially since your grandchildren support this..........why not? I think its a wonderful idea. Purina has a Pets for Seniors program and they even will contribute to participating shelters money towards spay and neutering. I became familiar with the program when they offered it to Mama, and in fact although I am substantially younger than you, I qualified for it when I adopted our new doggie last spring. Good luck. |
Well, Goldy, I say go for it. A dog will greatly enrich your life and be your loving companion. I'd look into a mature dog , not a puppy and I'm sure it will all work out. It's a known fact that people of all ages benefit from an animal companionship. Lowers blood pressure and gives the person a reason for getting up every day. |

I agree with the others, your never to old to have a new companion to love. |
Yes I still drive,walk.ride my bike and do a little sewing.But these things you do by yourself.There are few people my age wanting to tagg along.In a house this big I want to have company besides the tv and the icemaker makeing noise.So I'm going to take your advice and start puppy shoping.I still would like a puppy.I really enjoyed the "housebreaking"it gets me closer to the pup.I might add that I'm relocating from NJ to Delaware and I know no one here. |

'Get On Up'
★★★ 1/2
It's a straight-ahead biopic for the most part, in terms of charting the rise and fall and rise of the Godfather of Soul, but Chadwick Boseman's spectacular performance makes that more or less irrelevant.
And the music comes across like an electrifying, super-funky force of nature.
Produced by Mick Jagger, who no doubt helped put the oomph in the tunes, directed by Tate Taylor of "The Help," "Get on Up" opens in 1988 as drug-frazzled James Brown leads a fleet of cop cars on a high-speed chase. That's after lecturing a group of terrified white folks about bathroom etiquette while brandishing a shotgun.
That's the fall, leading to an ignominious stretch in prison. Then the story flashes back to 1939 and Brown's harrowing childhood as the son of an abusive Georgia sharecropper. From that point, there's no place to go but up, of course, since young James was so poor he stole shoes off the feet of a lynching victim.
But "Get on Up," to its credit, breaks up the chronology by bouncing back and forth in time throughout Brown's' life and, even better, making time for many, many performances along the way.
Brown was a one-of-a-kind entertainer, of course, and an extraordinarily influential figure in 20th-century life. So, even at 138 minutes, some of the key features of his life get short shrift: his political stances, for one thing, including his influence on the black power movement of the '60s. "Get on Up" touches, at least, on much of it, but its main emphasis is on portraying Brown as a man who saw himself as a fateful figure who would sacrifice anything and anyone to live up to the greatness for which he believed he was born.
Again to its credit, "Get on Up" touches on the darker part of Brown's nature (domestic violence, drug abuse, riding roughshod on musicians in his band), but only briefly and always in the context of a man driven by extreme passions.
For the most part, it's a sympathetic portrait, tempered by loving snapshots of Brown's family life and long friendships with his veteran sideman Bobby Byrd (Nelson Ellas of HBO's "True Blood") and manager Ben Bart (Dan Aykroyd).
Boseman, who was also impressive last year as Jackie Robinson in "42," excels at portraying the charm that was such a large part of Brown's charisma.
That charisma shifted into an entirely different gear onstage, though, namely sexy, sweaty, more-soul-than-he-can-control overdrive, and Boseman has that down too. So much so that there are times when you're likely to forget you're watching a performance and accept him as the real thing.
Boseman has the ecstatic dance moves down, naturally, but there's something a lot more primal going on here — as if he were being possessed by the great man himself. Who knows if it will be remembered when Oscar time rolls around, but he certainly deserves a nomination. And perhaps an investigation as an occult phenomenon.

Hi, we bought a house recently and are now figuring out what kind of work we want to do before we move in. My wife thinks the kitchen is small for a 3-bed house and wants to expand it. We have a deck behind our kitchen and she thinks we will not used it and it's a waste of space. The idea would be to get rid of deck and move the kitchen wall. But that would force us to loose the window. By city code we can't have a window parallel to the other property. That's why those decks exist. I can't imagine liking a kitchen without windows. I like the light and the fresh air. If we do that expansion we could also get some more space for the bathroom. I like the deck and I think I will use it. It also bring tons os light into the kitchen and nook area. There might be another way to make the kitchen feel bigger and work better. Any ideas? Thoughts? I appreciate it. Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
By city code we can't have a window parallel to the other property. I am confused by this since there is a window in the nook and one in bedroom 1 on that side. The deck doesn't appear very useful and cuts down on the usefulness of the nook since you need to leave a path to get out the slider. |
I agree with Dekeoboe. I'd consider bumping out. But, you need more information. |
The first question is do you need more indoor space or not. You have labeled a breakfast nook, living room, and parlor. I would likely expand the kitchen into the parlor before the deck area, unless you need more indoor space. The parlor would benefit from more daylight, unless you use it for something dark. How many of you are there? how much do you cook? The kitchen is fine for 3 bedrooms, but what matters more is to make it fit you. |
Is this a single family home that has some yard space? If not, I'd be disinclined to use what little outdoor space you have. How wide is the nook from its narrowest -- from the slider to the opposite wall? Wide enough to use as a breakfast area? If not, how do you intend to use this space? If you don't have a good use for it, you could expand the kitchen into the nook. If you swap the closet and the door to the foyer, so you'd enter the kitchen from the parlor, you would gain a full wall of cabinets and countertops backing to the living room. This assumes the parlor would be your dining room. You could gain yet more wall space by closing off the upper parlor door and moving the back hall door towards the bathroom. giving yourself cabinets and counter to the left of the stove. (These might have to shallow -- I can't tell the scale from your floorplan. A more minimal remodeling, which wouldn't lose the nook but would give more kitchen space, is to expand the kitchen toward the nook, taking out the corner cupboard and the foyer closet. It looks like you have a chase to the right of the stove, so that cabinet would have to be shallow. What climate do you live in? Can you give up that foyer closet? |
- Posted by hosenemesis (My Page) on Sun, Feb 24, 13 at 1:39
I'd expand toward the nook and/or the parlor before removing an exterior wall and losing windows. I would live there first and decide what space you need before you undertake any major remodeling. Will you use a parlor and a living room? My first inclination would be to open up the kitchen to the parlor. The nook has a few feet that look like they should be in the kitchen too. |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Taylor!
Facts about Taylor
- Breed: Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier
- Color: Silver & Tan (Yorkie Colors)
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Taylor's Info...
I am already spayed, purebred, up to date with shots, not good with kids, and good with dogs.
Hi! My name is Taylor and I am a beautiful, sweet little Yorkie girl who is 3 years old and I weigh 7 lbs. I have a little under bite but it just adds to my considerable charm! I need a stay at home parent and no children under 10 years old and I will be your forever companion so please ask for me on your application to www.breederadoptions.org.
Love, Taylor 103011-18
Other Pets at BRAS - Rifle, CO (Northwest CO)
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Taylor, a Rifle Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier for sale in Rifle, or seeking a Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier dog from a breeder in Rifle.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Rifle 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 Rifle 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 Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier breeders who help with Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Rifle paves the way for another one to be saved.

It was genocide. Charles Krauthammer called it "the largest ethnic cleansing of the entire Balkan wars." A March 1999 New York Times article agreed with him.
"Investigators with the war-crimes tribunal in the Hague have concluded that this campaign was carried out with brutality, wanton murder and indiscriminate shelling of civilians," Krauthammer wrote.

It takes more than good design and dedication to create an exciting, successful restaurant that is open 365 days a year, three meals a day. It takes a bit of chutzpa, as well. Apparently Bruce Berger, owner and developer of bb's kitchen in Aspen, Colo., has a good handle on that approach when it comes to fruitfully merging his professional and personal life. "Cooking is a major avocation of mine, and I've wanted to open a restaurant for a long time. My wife, however, was completely opposed to the idea, so I thought it was appropriate to name it after her," Berger says with a touch of joyous sarcasm.
>> Click the "more photos" link to view images
Thus, bb's kitchen (B.B. is short for Barbara Berger) opened in late December 2010 after a decidedly fast and focused three-month rebuild of a second-floor space that once housed an art gallery. Rowland+Broughton Architecture and Urban Design (R+B), with offices in Denver and Aspen, Colo., was the ideal firm to take on the formidable challenge. The 2,500-sq.-ft., 66-seat restaurant and lounge features all of the comfortable elements of an upscale diner with terrific home-cooking at an affordable price, yet in an atmosphere that caters to the sophistication level of Aspen's local clientele. Sarah Broughton, R+B principal, recognized Berger's passion for food and service and matched it with a space that is modern, eclectic, and, above all, functional. "bb's concept is holistic and its design complete, which enables it to seamlessly transition from breakfast to dinner to late-night drinks," notes Broughton.
The main dining room features cozy, diner-esque booths and banquette seating in warm wood and deep red tones that are contrasted by the subdued black, greys, and whites of the space's backdrop. One side of the dining room showcases a custom designed bar with "belly up to the bar" counter stools, while an adjacent, full-service lounge completes the casual-yet-elegant atmosphere with its own unique design qualities. This mix of seating allows guests a range of opportunities for dining, from power breakfasts to romantic dinners to après ski snacks and cocktails.
Berger was adamant that the atmosphere should feel hip but not so over the top as to be unappealing to more mature guests. R+B met the challenge by creating an aesthetic sensibility with mass appeal, which include flexible seating and a layering of design elements that simultaneously offers a sense of openness with pockets of intimacy. Broughton says that cohesion was key, and a major challenge included creating an unassuming level of comfort in an atmosphere that is decidedly upscale. She says, "We met the challenge with specific design solutions that considered both the elegance and flow of the space, but also its functionality. No matter how great the food is, if the restaurant doesn't 'work' and service lacks, it will not be a success." These "unglamorous yet utilitarian" elements include visually hidden gas and electrical components, a dumbwaiter, water lines, and high-grade acoustics.
Great food is at the heart of bb's kitchen. Thus, Berger, with his love of food, and R+B, with its creative design solutions, collaborated on an open kitchen plan within the relatively tight space. "I love being around food, and I know others do too, so having the chefs at work on beautifully plated food in clear view was essential," says Berger. Homemade jams and syrups in traditional mason jars line the rear service area shelves, doing double duty to communicate a sense of down-home charm, as well as serving as backlit interior elements.
Artwork also is a major player in bb's appealing sensibility. The Bergers have been collectors since the 1960s and have a particular fondness for text art, which they felt would be ideal for the space. Images such as "Be Salty" and "Purely Delicious" cover an entry wall, as well as an accent wall behind the bar, literally providing food for thought. "I wanted bb's to be whimsical and witty, and make people feel like they were getting a top-notch dining experience for a reasonable price. I also wanted locals to have a place to go that would always meet their needs, from breakfast to lunch, dinner and after dinner," Berger explains.
Broughton cannot say enough about the successful collaboration with Berger, and she is proud of how R+B transformed a space that was decidedly "unrestaurant-like" into a popular, comfortable, and inspiring dining locale. "The experience was very hands-on for all involved, and that's why it works," she says. "It was a labor of love, and I believe bb's will continue to thrive because of it."

Bummer. :( I guess your climate there is too cool for lizards? Here the garden is full of Western Fence lizards, and as a result no earwigs (their favorite food). On the other hand, you get rain. |
- Posted by janetpetiole 4b (My Page) on Sat, Sep 20, 08 at 8:01
You have my sympathy, BorS. Those photos could have been from my garden, except that I pruned off the damage. I couldn't look at it without getting depressed. |
I'm so sorry. I guess we don't have them here...yet. We seem to have all the other fungal diseases and pests in the world, I hope these aren't the next plague. Carol |
- Posted by gardengal48 PNW zone 8 (My Page) on Sat, Sep 20, 08 at 11:34
WOW! You DO have a problem :-( Are you absolutely sure it's the earwigs? I've never seen any earwig damage to that severe an extent. I'd be much more likely to suspect some sort of caterpillar/larval issue, like cutworms or something similar, especially on the vine that has been totally skeletonized. I assume you've been out late evening with your flashlight checking all the foliage to suss out the exact culprits? |
- Posted by buyorsell888 Zone 8 Portland OR (My Page) on Sat, Sep 20, 08 at 13:03
Yes, I have. No cutworms or larvae. Loads of earwigs. It really seems to worse in certain areas where the soil is dry from the neighbor's Doug firs and I've used wooden structures. I think the earwigs hide in the lattice during the day. I've had them go into the cracks as I'm trying to smash them. Helios is the skeletonized one. In previous years it happened right away as it grew but this year I used Sluggo Plus and it grew to six feet without damage. But, I have to go to Seattle for two weeks every August and this year I had to go to Atlanta for a week for work and everything dried out. DH didn't spread any Sluggo either. Maybe this was a factor, maybe not. I don't know. No fence lizards here. Sure wish there were. I LOVE lizards. Always have. Lived in Phoenix for fifteen years. Miss them. Miss the weather too. |
- Posted by nckvilledudes 7a (My Page) on Sat, Sep 20, 08 at 18:00
Yep, if they were my plants I would pull out all the guns including systemics. I couldn't live with plants chomped to bits like that. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead with whatever will kill the buggers! |
- Posted by buyorsell888 Zone 8 Portland OR (My Page) on Mon, Sep 22, 08 at 12:29
I found an unopened bottle of that systemic rose and flower care that you water the plant with instead of spraying in my shed. Good grief, I had it all along. Did I manage to use it yesterday? Nooooo. It has fertilizer in it as well but I think one dose now won't be too bad, frost is a long way off for us. It is labeled for weevils on Rhodies too. Why oh why didn't I use it earlier???? |
i understand sevin will take care of the earwigs (??) ~~ a systemic such as merit (??) ~~ desperate times call for desperate measures ~~ ducking now to miss all the arrows aimed at me from ~~ well, you know who ~~ sorry |
Ouch. Thanks for posting pics to help educate the newbies such as myself - I'll know what damage to keep an eye out for. I'm still torn about the whole discussion in an earlier post about treating my clems with systemics but also attracting hummingbirds to my yard this year. So far, I haven't noticed any real damage, but have seen an earwig or two. If it gets that bad, I may have to give in. Actually, that's what one of my petunias looks like this year (though not as bad), even though I already treated it with a systemic at the end of July. Maybe it's slugs? I have it in a pot on the ground....I'll try Sluggo and see if that helps, but with the weather getting colder it may not be an issue much longer anyway. I don't remember if we saw any pics of your healthy clems????? Good luck with the earwig issue. |

Ulduar drakes not being removed anytime soon {WoW}
Jul 22nd 2009 2:41PM Yeah, as others have said, this change is most likely due to such an insanely small number of people having obtained one. Even with 3.2 gear, I bet most guilds won't be able to get these mounts.
New Halloween masks point to a new playable race? {WoW}
Jul 17th 2009 4:06PM Great.
Wrath saw the flood of Arthas wannabes: Arthus, Arrths, Licharthas, etc.
The next expansion is going to see a flood of Twilight wannabes: Jacobblack, Jacab, JakeBlack.
Two Bosses Enter: Ley-Guardian Eregos vs. Loken {WoW}
Jul 16th 2009 5:00PM Loken's Lightning Nova is a 2-D attack. Eregos can fly. Unless Loken suddenly develops the ability to rotate LN 90 degrees, its Eregos all day.
Ensidia and Method to compete in Ulduar timed run {WoW}
Jul 14th 2009 11:59PM This would have been far more interesting if they had done it on 25-man. 10-man normal modes with their level of gear? XT in, what, 45 seconds? Hodir in 30? Why even bother?
The only thing I want to see are the raid comps. My guess:
1 DK tank
1 healer
1 boomkin/feral druid tank
1 ele/resto shaman
6 mages and locks (divided however)
Officers' Quarters: Best in slot {WoW}
Jul 13th 2009 3:02PM Agree 100%.
We had this debate back in my old guild, a very acrimonious and ugly debate. I wish you had written this article earlier. Would have spared us a lot of drama.
The dying Hunter? {WoW}
Jul 10th 2009 3:15PM As mentioned by others, I think many hunters rolled DKs. Facerolling aside, the appeal of going from the most popular class and least wanted pure dps to the most powerful hybrid class is very enticing. Wanted as tanks, dps, and as pvp partners, what hunter who got turned down sight unseen for BC pugs wouldnt be tempted to reroll?
Lets not forget how hunter unfriendly Ulduar is. If youve got a mage and a hunter, the hunter isnt going to see much of Ulduar.
Breakfast Topic: Do you wish we didn't have to use AddOns? {WoW}
Jul 7th 2009 10:53AM Addons are okay until a person relies on them more than they rely on themself; that is, when the crutch becomes a permanent third leg and not just a tool to help through the difficult times. Try raiding Ulduar without DBM. It's quite possible on normal (hardmodes, not so much). You either learn situational awareness or DIAF. Bosses now emote more than ever and/or they have cast bars. Use those built-in functions, trust those. They never lie. Addons can be wrong, lagged, or simply broken.
Officers' Quarters: Managing your lockouts {WoW}
Jul 6th 2009 1:54PM Hardcore or casual, I dont see this being used much. Maybe it's me: I prefer to reclear bosses to get more loot and thus make the harder encounters a little easier. Guilds that raid 7 days a week might benefit, but guilds that dont prolly wont; losing a day when you raid 3 or 4 times a week for one boss doesnt make a lot of sense. Whats more important, more practice or more practice with more gear?
Scattered Shots: Climbing Hunter talent trees {WoW}
Jul 2nd 2009 4:07PM Ive seen BM beat out MM and SV hunters, Ive seen SV top the meters on Vezax, Ive seen MMers pwn. Just because the spreadsheet says spec X/Y/Z is tops doesnt mean you will be on top every fight. There's this concept called "skill". If you cant manage your cooldowns, let your pet die, stand in the fire, your spec wont matter. L2P whatever spec you chose, then worry about improving your damage.
Scattered Shots: A deeper look into the Patch 3.2 Hunter changes {WoW}
Jun 26th 2009 9:58AM The new proc rate and internal cd will hopefully mean more reliable procs. Right now LnL might proc 5 times in a fight, or not at all. Same fight, different attempts, same role, major difference in number of procs. This may be a change that beneffits us in longer fights. Might lucky on Hodir, but vezax now gets blasted a bunch.

Libraries count on loyal Friends
By Wally Eberhard
For the Journal-Constitution
Monday, January 05, 2009
All of Georgia's publicly funded institutions are on a forced economic diet these days, and your public library isn't exempt.
But most have a loyal group of Friends —- that's uppercase, please —- to help them out.
So the patrons of the Hart County library in Hartwell can still count on getting the New York Times top 10 fiction and nonfiction books each month. The library's Friends group is paying for them.

Conquer the challenges of ancient Egypt!Break through ancient and spectacular Egyptian walls to gather gems, and gain special powers. Make your way through Tutankhamen's tomb, with Egyptian art and sounds, for level after level of new challenges. Press the left mouse button to release the ball, then hit it back when it bounces off the walls. Some walls may take several hits to destroy. Catch green coins for a boost, but don't catch the red ones; they'll hinder you.
1.Choose a level pack to play. Tutankhamen is the default level pack.
2.Start by aligning the ball in the center of your paddle. When you're ready, press the left mouse button to put the ball into play.
3.When you break all of the wall segments on the board, the level is complete and you move on to the next.
