"I have made these numerous times and kept forgetting to write a review. I just put the peppers in the crock pot this morning and I just want you to know that I love this recipe! It is so easy to prepare and they are delicious! My husband is not fond of rice, but he loves these stuffed peppers. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!!"
"I have reviewed this recipe before, but just wanted to let you know this is the best Swiss Chicken recipe I have ever made. My son makes it also and brought it over for our annual secret santa party. My daughter in law also makes it and it is my grandaughters favorite meal (and she is very fussy). I substituted cream of onion soup tonight and i..."
"Had my 15th month old grandson over for supper tonight....he loved this mac and cheese. Only change I made was to put some buttered bread crumbs on the top. Served with baby peas and he just loved it. Thanks for a kid friendly recipe......even hubby liked it and he is pretty fussy. Looking forward to some leftovers for work tomorrow.....I only..."
"I made this for Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone LOVED it. I used to make a casserole with chopped broccoli, but my husband really loved this one and that is what really counts. Thanks Jane for a a very tasty side dish for any dinner. Noticed I forgot to add the stars on my review and this definately deserves 5 stars."
"Made your Beaudacious Crock Pot Pork Roast on Sunday. Had a very small...1 1/2 lb pork roast...still frozen. Substituted the water to white wine. Didn't measure...just poured into soup can....about 3/4 full. The end results were outstanding. I still have the left over gravy and some pork...going to serve over noodles tomorrow. I thickened th..."
"Made this for a Labor day barbecue. It was easy to put together, but the end product was very bland and kind of curdled looking. My son and his fiance liked it, but my husband and I did not. I guess we are just used to the traditional mac and cheese that is baked in the oven. Thanks for posting."
"Planned on making a meatloaf for dinner tonight, but the meat was not thawed enough to work with it. I found this recipe and I am so happy that I did. I used 1 lb. of ground turkey in place of the ground beef and brown rice because that is what I had on hand. followed to the rest of the recipe as written. Added a little extra 4 cheese Mexican ..."
"This was really very good. I only had one pound of hamburg, so I added a can of Mexican corn and some mushrooms and garlic. I added some Southwest seasoning to the hamburg...Emeril's for the seasoning...also added some Citlantro. Didn't have any Monterey Jack cheese, so added some Mexican blend. A very good casserole...would highly recommend."
"This marinade is the best thing that ever happened to beef! I am not a steak lover because the meat has to be so tender that it just about has to melt in my mouth. I finally found a marinade that lets me eat steak so poor hubby doesn't have to go without. I had two Rib Eye steaks and Hubby likes his meat with no marinade at all but I marinated..."

Are the characters going to be voiced by the same people?
Is the game episodic?
Should I just be patient and wait until Monday? :P
*Jaw drops to floor* YYYYEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!! I'm even more happy to know it's not Halo!!!!!! *Grabs flame shield*
@BigNick said: HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sam and Max...
Strong Bad...
Wallace and Grommit...CAN TELLTALE GAMES GET ANY MORE AWESOMER??????!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?
Yes: Death Note.
Holy cow! OMG! You've GOT to be kidding! No way! Get out of town! Wallace & Gromit! I already knew I was in love with you Telltale, but now this is beyond love. Where do I kneel?
It's funny, because I really never expected this -- yet it make so much sense!
I very much agree with you Gabez. This is an awesomely unpredictable move, but such a perfect fit for Telltale and the episodic format!
@Dan said: "Clay presents a challenge if you really get into the detail of it. For example, adding fingerprints in a medium where there aren't any is one of the discussions of how far we should go with the game's detail."
They should do it Neverhood-style.
edit: I know it's not gonna happen, but it would be nice anyway...
@NickTTG said: this game is gonna be SWEET!
Good to see that at least Telltale themselves like it..
I'm not quite ecstatic yet, to be honest.
But yes, this is definitely not the kind of thing I was expecting(and no, I wasn't expecting a LucasArts adventure franchise!). And wow was it a surprise!
I'm going to, at the very least, give the first game a try. I suppose Telltale is going to do the "Upgrade to the full season after buying one episode" deal they do with Sam and Max? If so, then I'll probably buy the first episode and see if I really enjoy it.
Curse of the Were-Rabbit was fun, and I liked it. But I honestly hadn't seen much of Wallace and Gromit before that, and it's not a franchise that I can't wait to get released, like Sam and Max and Homestar.
*glances up at the cheering masses*
Don't kill me, guys. ;_;
Congratulations, guys!
This is a far more international license than Strong Bad. I've always loved the characters and I'm ready to jump in! :)

The Gaston County Public Library is pleased to partner with the American Association of University Women/Gaston Region Chapter and the North Carolina Humanities Council's Road Scholars program to present "Women and Work," a two-part multi-media speakers series featuring two distinguished and engaging scholars who will examine how women in post-Civil War Piedmont North Carolina participated in "public" work – employment outside the family home or farm – and how that participation shaped their lives, their families, their expectations and their communities.
Each of the two free public events, appropriate for adults and high school students, will be held at the Gaston County Public Library, 1555 E. Garrison Blvd., Gastonia. No reservations are required for individuals and families. Advance reservations are required for organized groups to insure seating.
On Saturday Jan. 5 at 2 p.m., Dr. Angela Marritt will present "Women's Work in the Early South," an exploration of women's employment in post-Civil War Piedmont North Carolina.
In the first few decades after the Civil War, the employment of women increased dramatically in North Carolina. A growing number of white women in North Carolina cities were self-employed as dressmakers, milliners, shopkeepers or boarding house operators. Widowed, never-married and divorced women were primary providers for their families. Married businesswomen maintained interdependent relationships with or supported husbands. Some women worked temporarily or seasonally, others established careers or carried on businesses for years. These women not only supported their families but also supported a comfortable middle-class lifestyle complete with servants.
This thoughtful examination of their lives and labors reveals how late-nineteenth century women carefully negotiated the demands of white womanhood — particularly of economic dependency — while earning a living.
Dr. Marritt, an instructor at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and Salem College, received her doctoral degree in U.S. history from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, where she specialized in women's history and earned a minor in Atlantic world studies. Her Road Scholars presentations examine strategies employed by women in the Carolina Piedmont to support themselves and their families in the unstable post-Civil War economy. She earned a Master of Arts degree in museum studies at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and she has worked in education and collections management at the International Civil Rights Center and Museum in Greensboro, the Greensboro Historical Museum, Blandwood Mansion, and the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts. She also holds a Bachelor of Science degree in education and taught in Guilford County Schools for six years.
If the Gaston County Public Library is closed due to bad weather on Jan. 5, this event will be rescheduled for Jan. 12.
The Women and Work series will continue on Feb. 2 at 2 p.m. with "Hard Times in the Mills: Working Lives Past and Present," presented by Dr. Roxanne Newton.
These events have been made possible by a grant from the North Carolina Humanities Council, a statewide nonprofit organization and affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Support has also been provided by the Friends of the Gaston County Public Library and the Ralph S. Robinson Family Foundation.
For more information about the Women and Work series, call 704-868-2164 / Dial 4 or visit www.gastonlibrary.org.
Carol Reinhardt is program coordinator for the Gaston County Public Library.

The development of Burma's Dawei special economic zone will be the focus of a two-day trip to Naypyitaw by Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra in September.
Foreign Minister Surapong Tohvichakchaikul said on Wednesday that Yingluck would meet with Burma's President Thein Sein to discuss progress on bilateral cooperation following the signing of a memorandum of understanding in Bangkok in July.
Surapong said the joint development of the deep-sea port project in southeast Burma and the plan to connect the Dawei project to Thailand's Laem Chabang deep-sea port project would be the focus of discussions.
The Italian-Thai Development Company is the lead contractor on the Dawei project, and Thailand is a major financial backer of the infrastructure project.
The recent bilateral agreements on Dawei have sent a strong signal to foreign investment firms and governments that Thailand and Burma are committed to development of the strategic economic corridor designed to funnel energy and other material into Southeast Asia, significantly reducing shipping time and costs.
Meanwhile, the MCOT news agency reported on Wednesday that Thailand's leading developer and manager of factory estates, the Amata Corporation, is negotiating with partners to develop an industrial estate at a 200,000-rai site in Dawei.
Wiwat Kromadit, a senior construction manager for Amata Corporation Plc, said the company is talking with potential partners with expertise and investment interest in industrial estate development from Japan and China.
If completed, the industrial estate in Dawei would be the largest of its kind in the world, he said.

The performance studio and a few other spaces share an Audio Visual system including video projector and motorized screen, Crestron 5.1 surround sound with stereo mixdown to QSC K-series powered monitors under the control of a Lectronsonics DM series processor, Blu-Ray player, VGA/HDMI wall ports, PTZ HDMI cameras, signage and video streaming servers all to an Aurora 8x8 HDMI/HDBaseT Matrix. The outputs feed GM, conference room, lobby, reception and projector destinations. Video and song now playing are also routed to a massive ticker-style moving message sign that wraps around two sides of the studio building.
The facility has a master clock, however it is not GPS derived. Because the station carries network programming, it was felt better to receive and generate an NTP clock derived from the NPR/PRSS receiver. This clock is distributed over the networks to console, automation and wall clocks.
The studios, TOC and transmitter room share access to the building's 480Vac/650kVA generator. The transmitter room also has an Emerson 45kVA UPS with maintenance bypass and Emerson computer room grade A/C.
What is Structured Wiring?
The term structured wiring, rather than the broadcast specific Studio Hub approach to such wiring, has been used for a reason. I am providing this detail because you may have to explain this, as did I, to third parties and we have to use their IT terms, not our broadcast terms. One has to separate the network from the node. Nodes are devices that connect to networks. Networks, and their cabling, should be agnostic to the attached devices and signals, unless there is a really good reason to do otherwise. Any competent low-voltage wiring firm can install structured wiring.
Why structured wiring? Because it works? Well, yes it does, and quite well, but that is not the reason. "But it costs more." Not necessarily. Stepping out of the broadcast mindset, and speaking as a project manager, one has to look at the practical reality of getting things done under increasing layers of technology and regulations against tighter budgets and deadlines. You can very clearly define an scope of work, a bill of materials, a budget and sign-off criteria when you specify the number of runs of CAT-6 UTP terminated in modular ports per room. Try explaining that you need X different types of multipair, terminated in X different types of connections, and then find out you need something different, and try to purchase that difference. Anything other then CAT 5/6 UTP, or STP, or fiber, becomes a showstopper. Businesses make so much use of structured wiring now that it is the standard for wiring.

Google's executive chairman plans to award $1 million on March 10 to people or groups using technology to solve worldwide issues.
During a live Web chat, NSA leaker Edward Snowden emphasizes the need for the rule of law. He also strikes, at one point, a tone you might take as conciliatory.
In his speech on recommended changes to the NSA, the president's rhetoric is in the right place. But are his efforts at reform?
Two members of the House Intelligence Committee say a secret Pentagon report shows Edward Snowden's leaking of NSA documents has "tipped off US adversaries." But they don't provide any details.
The end of 2013 saw a rush of big NSA news, from a judge calling an agency program "almost Orwellian" to a bevy of tech stars talking reform at the White House. What lies ahead?
A federal judge issues -- and then stays -- a preliminary ruling that the NSA's bulk collection of US citizens' phone metadata violates expectations of privacy.
Lawmakers say the NSA could have used less-intrusive methods to gather data.
A trove of documents released by the Obama administration appears to contain a 2004 opinion authorizing the agency's massive data collection program.
Series of blown circuits destroyed hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gear and pushed back completion of National Security Agency's largest data center, says report.
Test was meant to suss how National Security Agency's systems could handle bulk location data, according to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and NSA head Keith Alexander.

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 Iggy!
Facts about Iggy
- Breed: Maltese/Chihuahua Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Iggy's Info...
I am up to date with shots.
Iggy is a 4 week old Maltipoo-Chi mix pup. Come by and meet him at The Shelter Hope Pet Shop!
Other Pets at Shelter Hope Pet Shop
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Iggy, a Thousand Oaks Maltese/Chihuahua puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Maltese/Chihuahua for sale in Thousand Oaks, or seeking a Maltese/Chihuahua puppy from a breeder in Thousand Oaks.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Thousand Oaks 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 Thousand Oaks 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 Maltese/Chihuahua breeders who help with Maltese/Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Thousand Oaks paves the way for another one to be saved.

People Fleeing Graveyard dream interpretations
Graveyard Dream Explanation
— (See Cemetery; Grave)
Dream Explanation
— (Companions of Allah's Prophet, upon whom be peace; Followers; Successors) Seeing Allah's blessed
and His righteous ones, or any of the early companions of Allah's Messenger (uwbp), whether such a companion is known or not in a dream represents blessings in one's life and denotes one's correct following of their example, and their advice or comments in one's dream must be heeded. To see oneself as one of such true ones, or to enter their circles in a dream means that one is following their example and enjoying or suffering similar trials to theirs, then he will triumph over his enemies. To see one of the companions living in a city in a dream also represents the joy, happiness, prosperity, and justice the inhabitants of such a city enjoy under the leadership of a righteous governor. (Also see Companions of the Prophet; Scholars; Serving; Shepherd)
Dream Explanation
— (See Tar)
Interpretation According to the Varying Conditions of
Dream Explanation
— If a righteous and noble person sees himself as handcuffed or placed in a pillory. It means he will remain safeguarded against mischief and wickedness. But if the observer of such a dream is wicked it suggests that he will commit excessive sins due to which he will be doomed to hell-fire May Allah, through His infinite mercy, save us from hell-fire, Ameen. Pillory means: a wooden board with holes for the head and hands in which petty offenders were formerly locked and exposed to public scorn.
Water to Drink Dream Explanation
— Drawing water from the well and seeing impurities and filth in such water means the person doing so will pollute his wealth with haraam wealth.
Flee Dream Explanation
— In general,
means security, because of a verse in the Holy Quran: "Therefore flee unto Allah; lo! I am a plain warner unto you from Him." ("Al-Dhariyat" [The Winnowing Winds], verse 50.)
death or running away from a killer: Death is near, in view of a verse in the Holy Quran: "Say: Flight will not avail you if ye flee from death or killing, and then ye dwell in comfort but a little while." ("Al-Ahzab" [The Clans], verse 16.)
an enemy: Will be safe and secure and fulfil one's aims, owing to the Quranic verse: "Then I fled from you when I feared you, and my Lord vouchsafed me a command…." ("Al-Shuara" [The Poets], verse 21.)
• Calling a man who runs away from the dreamer: That man neither accepts what the dreamer says nor obeys him, in view of the Quranic verse: "But all my calling doth but add to their repugnance." ("Nuh" [Noahl, verse 06.)
Cemetery Dream Explanation
— (Burial ground; Grave; Graveyard) Seeing a cemetery or a
in a dream means appeasement and comfort for a terrified person, and dismay to a comfortable and a relaxed person. A

, and that he will rule with justice. If one does not contemplate thus in the dream, it means that he will forget about something important or dear to his heart. If one enters the
calling to prayers in a dream, it means that he will admonish
, commands what is good and forbids what is evil. If one sees himself entering a
and walking over the scattered bones of the dead
in a dream, it means that he will die and be buried there. A cemetery in a dream also represents admonition, reading the Quran, crying, reminiscence, piety, surrender to one's destiny and discarding worldly gains. A cemetery in a dream also may represent the scholars, ascetics, governors, leaders, camps or a brothel. The graves of saints or shrines in a dream signify innovation, heedlessness, intoxication, adultery, corruption and fear. A stone tomb or a sarcophagus in a dream signifies profits, war prisoners, a booty or exposing one's personal secrets. (Also see Burial; Grave; Shrine)

Church Dream Explanation
— For Christians, says Al-Nabulsi, the church symbolizes knowledge, work, asceticism, and reverence to the extent of crying. But the church, he continues, also symbolizes worries, unhappiness, misery, lying, decadence, slander, heresy, and places where injustice and impure recreation reign supreme. It refers to brothels, gambling places, taverns, and everything that soils the individual. It could also represent a tyrant. Still according to Al-Nabulsi, the church might also allude to the abode of demons, like the garbage place and the bathroom; the grave, the house of the adulteress; the cabaret; the place where
wail; Hell; and jail. The stronger the edifice of the church and the higher the structure, the weaker the Muslims and their religion in that place.24
• A bachelor dreaming of entering a church: (1) Will marry. (2) Will have a child. (3) Will deviate from the right path, especially if he falls prostrate before the statues that are there, kisses them, takes parts in a sacrifice, or wears a waistband.
• A man praying in a church according to Christian rites: Will mix with atheists, heretics, adulterers, drunkards, or
who commit other abominations. The same would apply to a woman dreaming of attending a tumultuous marriage ceremony or a funeral at which
weep loudly, tear their pockets, and wear black.
• Remembering or mentioning Allah in a church and denouncing what the worshipers there are doing: Will work for the promotion of virtue and the deterrence of vice.
• Mentioning God, crying, and praying toward the Kabah (in the direction of Mecca (Makkah)) inside the church: Will visit a
to pray for the dead or attend a funeral service.
• Seeing a church being destroyed, burning, or undergoing some other calamity: Stronger religious faith (for the Muslims) and defeat for the polytheists and the hypocrites.
• A church turning into a synagogue or vice versa: Some accident will befall the aliens (non-Muslims) living in an Islamic country.
• Seeing one's house as a church: (1) Will talk the language of the Christians and turn one's home into a meeting place for the whimsical, the heretics, and those who commit all sorts of sins. (2) The dreamer's chief will be angry with him.
• Seeing a dead person in a church: The deceased is in the Eternal Blaze, locked with those who had disobeyed the Lord.
Mosque Dream Explanation
— (Jami; Masjid) The main city mosque or the central mosque in a dream represents the king, the governor, or the ruler of a Muslim country, since he takes care of establishing the divine laws as well as he is the symbol of Islam and the decisive judge between the lawful and the unlawful. Smelling an apple inside a mosque means getting married. A mosque in a dream is like the central market that
intend daily and endeavor to make profit therein. It is a place where
will profit according to their deeds and efforts. A mosque in a dream also represents one who is to be obeyed, respected and revered such as a father, a teacher, a sheikh or a man of knowledge. It also asserts justice if one who enters a mosque in his dream is unjustly treated. The main city mosque in a dream represents the Quranic revelation, the ocean of knowledge, a place of purification and washing one's sins, the
where submissiveness and contemplation are evoked, the washing and shrouding of the dead, medicine, silence, focusing one's intention and facing the Qiblah at the Kabah in Mecca. Seeing the main city mosque in a dream also means to recognize something good and to act upon it. It also could be interpreted as the shelter from one's enemy, and a sanctuary and a shelter of the believer from fear, and a house of peace. The ceiling of the mosque represents the intimate and vigilant entourage of a king. Its outstretch represents the dignitaries. Its chandeliers represent its wealth and ornaments. Its prayer mats represent the king's justice and his knowledgeable advisors. Its doors represent the guards. Its minaret represents the king's vice-regent, the official speaker of the palace or it announcer. If the main mosque in the dream is interpreted to represent the ruler of the land, then its pillars represent the element of time. Its lights represent the noble retinue and the wise men of his epoch. The ceiling represents the knowledge contained in the books that protect his justice and his references. The minaret will then represent his chief minister or advisor. The pulpit represents his servant. The prayer niche represents his wife, or it may represent his lawful earnings, or a righteous and a chaste wife. If one sees a mosque burning in a dream, it means death, losses and political changes in the country. The main mosque of the town also represents the pious
dwelling therein, the men of knowledge, the wise men, devotion, or a hermitage. Its niche represents the leader of the
(Imam). The caller to prayers (Muezzin) represents the judge or a gnostic from that town or country who calls
to the right path and whose call is harkened to by the believer. The doors of a mosque in a dream represent the trustees and guards who shelter
from outside attacks. If one sees any of that in a dream, or whatever condition these elements are in, they represent the current condition of the
, and this is what the central mosque represents in one's dream. If one sees grass growing inside a mosque in a dream, then it means a wedding. (Also see Imam; Kabah; Masjid; Minaret; Minbar; Muezzin)
Fireplace Dream Explanation
— (Hearth; Stove) An iron cast stove or a fireplace in a dream represents a woman who comes from a powerful and a strong family. If the stove or the fireplace is made from yellow copper or brass in the dream, then such a woman may have come from a house of a worldly and rich
. A wooden fireplace in a dream represents hypocrisy in such a family. If the fireplace is made of plaster in the dream, it means that such a family has associated itself with Pharaonic traditions or worship. If the fireplace is made of argillite or form sundried bricks in the dream, it means that someone in that family is a allahly and a pious person. A fireplace in a dream also represents a state, a government, joblessness or
from one's enemy. If the fireplace or the stove is lit with no food to cook or water to boil over it in the dream, it means that the head of the household, the butler or the house keeper will become angry and infuriated by someone's slander or backbiting. If the cooking pot in the dream is interpreted to represent the wife, then the fireplace would represent her husband who faces the adversities and hardships of life. On the other hand, if the fireplace in the dream is interpreted to represent the wife, then the cooking pot would be her husband who is always sitting on fire. If the fireplace or the stove is not lit in the dream, then it represents distress, worries and trouble, but if it is on, then it means fulfilling one's needs and earning one's livelihood through hard work. A fireplace in a dream also represents one's wife, his tools and instruments, his vehicle, or it could represent a place of gathering, one's rank, a chair, light, a woman in childbed, a father, a mother, a pregnant woman, one's shop or a helper. A fireplace in a dream also could represent the month of January or the cold season. If a bachelor sees a fireplace in a dream, it means that he will get married, and if he is married, it means that his wife will become pregnant. If he is a sinner, it means that he will repent for his sins, for a fireplace is the abode of fire and fire in a dream represents fear, horror and guidance. A fireplace in a dream also represents one's stomach and the firewood in a dream represents a late heavy meal that will cause indigestion or confused dreams. (Also see Brazier; Firewood)
Grave Dream Explanation
— (Burial; Tomb; Sepulcher) A grave in a dream represents a prison and a prison in a dream represents a grave. If one sees himself living in a grave in a dream, it means that he will be incarcerated in a prison. Building a grave in a dream means building a house. If one enters a grave but does not witness a funeral in his dream, it means that he will buy a house. Digging a grave in a dream means getting married, though through tricking the woman to get her consent. Standing over a grave in a dream means committing a sin. If one sees himself digging a grave and upon completing his work, if he discovers that what he has dug is standing on the surface of the earth and has no walls in the dream, such ground represents the abode of the hereafter. If he then enters it in his dream, it signifies that his life term in this world has come to its conclusion. If he does not enter it in the dream, then there are no consequences to his dream. Seeing a known grave in a dream is a proof of what is true and a sign of what will unfailingly come. An unknown grave in a dream represents a hypocrite. Building a tomb on the roof of one's house means longevity. Visiting the
in a dream means visiting
in prison. Raining over the graves in a dream means blessings from Allah Almighty upon the
of the graves. Graves in a dream also represent distant travels, bewilderment, a wife, or they could mean a prison. Filling a grave with dirt in a dream means longevity and living a healthy life. Seeing oneself buried alive in a dream means a calamity, tightening of one's means or imprisonment. Seeing oneself buried alive and wearing one's shroud in a dream also could mean marriage. To unearth someone's grave in a dream means seeking to pursue his trade. If it is the grave of a scholar, then it means wanting to acquire his knowledge. If it is the grave of a rich person in the dream, then it means becoming rich or receiving an inheritance. If one sees the deceased person alive in his grave in a dream, it means that such money will constitute unlawful earnings, while in the first instance, the knowledge or wisdom one is seeking will be true, except if the person in the grave is dead in the dream. A stone tomb or a sarcophagus in a dream means profits, a war prisoner, a booty or exposing one's personal secrets. (Also see Burial; Cemetery; Exhume; Sarcophagus; Shrine; Tower)
Sparrow Dream Explanation
— The sparrow has contradictory interpretations. It symbolizes: (1) A huge, great, and dangerous man in terms of money who is slow does not recognize people's rights, and is harmful to most

take to be a fool. (3) A beautiful woman who has mercy on
. (4) A male child. (5) Praise. Dreaming of owning plenty of sparrows means one will be properly funded and command dangerous
Incident Dream Explanation
— A dream interpreter once said: "I saw in a dream a man who was blindfolded with a blue piece of cloth. I asked him: 'Do you know what happened to my father?' The man replied: "Your father is dead.' Then he took me to may father's grave, where I felt the great loss, and I hugged it, cried, and wailed. When I woke up, I told another dream interpreter, who was a friend of mine, about my dream. He smiled and said: 'Your father's death in the dream means his longevity, and your crying means relief from distress.' I did not accept his interpretation of my dream, for I knew better the meaning of wailing and mourning in a dream. Soon after that, I visited my father, and my friend proudly reminded me of his interpretation. Later on, I travelled away from home. When I returned to my town, I passed by a
. At the gate stood a woman who was guarding that cemetery and whose eye was bandaged with a blue piece of cloth. I knew her, so I stopped and asked her about the news. She said to me: 'May God grant you a long life. Your father has passed away.' Then she took me to his grave, and I fell on it, crying and wailing, exactly as I saw in my dream. Thus, my friend's interpretation did not come true, for he has no hand in it."
Crawl Dream Explanation
— • Crawling on one's belly: Will be handicapped and compelled to spend all savings owing to unemployment.
• A person dreaming of being unable to crawl anymore after stomach has been skinned and asking
to carry him: Will become poor and ask
for alms.

I had no issues or at least none that would make me absolutly refuse this resort in the future, but it's not my favorite.
I sleep hot but did not notice that it was overly warm at night. I did notice that it wasn't 'cold' but it was fine for me. (just to give you an idea I sleep with only a sheet for most of the winter and I sleep in shorts and tshirt, I get hot when sleeping and it wakes me up if I"m too warm). However I did notice it never would set below 68 and I don't think it ever got lower than 70 Was in the Ursula Building 7, 3rd floor on the end near the LK section (could see the parking lot from my corner) overlooking the walkway to the LM pool. The walk was nominal. I'm so not in great shape but I made the walk in less than 5 minutes it was easy, and had nice scenery. Heck I had more trouble navigating the Beach Club hallways then this, and it took longer to get to the buses, food or Epcot and it was no further from Ursula to the FC than it was from the back of Music to the FC, okay maybe a little further but both walks were about the same to me. Really a non issue. Don't worry about the walk unless you are seriously immobile or you have no stroller for your toddlers other than that I don't think you'll have a problem. Saw tons of kids walking it without even a whine. I had no problem connecting to wifi with my ipad. I used my phone all over the resort (at&t iphone 4s). No real noise to speak of and no extreme noise from the neighbors. I could hear the occasional flush, but I hear the occasional flush in lots of hotels and it was not constant or bothersome. Food Court was moderatly busy on Saturday night, but lines were managable. They did not have any Ganache Mickeys. I found out I do NOT like curry. The Tandori Chicken was okay but I disliked the seeds in the rice, the red sauce on the roasted califlouer and, the spinach, though the little hunks of cheese were not bad. The naan bread was very good. Tried the vegitarian curry at the F&W festival and am now really sure I do not like indian food so it wasn't the food court it was my taste buds that were the problem. Other choices at the food court looked and smelled good, just wish I had stuck with something I knew I might like instead of trying something new so I had a better idea of the offerings. Did online checkin and it was fine, my room was ready at 8am, and it was very quick with no wait. Staff was all very friendly. I did not swim but I will say the pool was almost always active and busy and while not decibel squealing loud it was easy to hear everything going on by the time you got to the end of LK section. Buses were busy. Always full and slow to pick up from the MK (only park I went to while I was at this resort), but it was a Saturday. I might stay there again if I needed the suites (which I might next trip) or it was the cheaper of two options and I needed to save money, but I'm just not a fan of over the top icons as decorations so it would not be my first choice (I actually prefer ASMu for a value stay as I was there on this trip as well and after two stays there I think it will probably be my value choice) for a standard room stay.

I loved AoA when I stayed in August. The rooms were spacious and clean. The transportation was excellent. The kids were enthralled with the theme. This will be my go to resort, as a family of 5. I would much prefer this to two rooms at a value.
The only thing I didn't care for was the food court. It was slow, and I didn't care for the food choices. However, I did like the setup of the beverage islands being in all seating areas instead of just a central location.

We stayed in a Cars suite 12/5-12/11 and loved everything about the resort! Theming was outstanding! My son loved saying good morning and good night to Mater every day! Beds we comfy! The bedspreads were heavy and thick, but we don't use them so we just folded it back without any issues. Mousekeeping was phenomenal! One of our kids got sick and while we cleaned it up they were so kind to sterilize everything for us! And our two year old spilled a cup of water all over the master bed and they came right out to change the sheets and everything for us! We got towel animals daily! Master bath might have the best shower I've ever used! temperature was fine in our rooms. It was morally around 68-70 and a few times I woke up cold at night!
We walked the whole resort and while LM was a little further we had no issues with the walk. We stopped to refill our mugs on our way back to our room and found it to be ok. We loved the food we had at the resort. It was delicious and a lot of different, healthy options! Pools were fun, although the Cars pool was cold. They were always doing fun activities at the pools. Bus service was great. The only time it took a while was after the Christmas party. Other than that, smooth sailing for us! We loved our stay here and if it weren't for wanting to do a monorail resort because of two little ones we'd stay here again and again. We thought it was worth every penny! UPDATE: forgot to mention there was ZERO cell service in our room! Very frustrating since I'm a travel agent and had to do a bit of work while I was there. I ended up sitting out in front of Animation Hall to do it! Frustrating since I couldn't pick up free Internet there. Internet in the room was ok. I us it a lot and my only issue was that it would drop off and I'd have to reconnect. Annoying, but at least I was able to use it.

We stayed in a Cars suite this past October. Room was great although storage was tight. Theming is fantastic. We didn't have any issues with transportation other than having to wait leaving the parks due to the line of guests.
Biggest issues were: Cell signal - Could not get a cell signal in the room unless I stood next to the window. Internet was horrific. I have never had issues before or since with my phone or service. Food Court - is poorly set up with trash/plate return sections next to the doors - blocks 1/2 the doorway. Using real plates and silverware is really disgusting when it comes time to take your plates up - as fast as the CM's were trying to clear things out it was just gross. And the CM cart made the exits even worse. Food court staff was incredibly unfriendly in several areas. Pool - its cute, but it was COLD and despite the cuteness it was kind of boring. The locked gates and locked bathrooms were a pain. Very easy to get locked out and challenging to keep up with your room key in nothing but your suit - epsecially at the bathroom. It was FREEZING cold in the bathroom/shower area. The main mug refill area was inside the pool in the corner - not easy access if you walking by and didn't open until 12 or so. We walked to the edge of LM and decided it was not ever going to make our list - its just a haul. Its definitely cute and nice and new, but just Disney's way of charging more for a value resort. I will say this - the key pad on the door fell off as we entered the room for the first time. It snapped back into place easily. I didn't think much of that until we went to get into our room at VWL a few weekends ago and the same thing happened. I don't think the keypads are particularly sturdy in general.

I've heard both sides of the distance debate, and I think your feelings will depend on the type of group you're going with. People with strollers, or young kids complained the walk to LM rooms was too long. Older groups and adults said the walk was fine, and scenic.

This was our first stay at a value and overall, I thought it was fine. Would we stay here again? Maybe. The suite was a bit smaller than I expected - I had to keep reminding myself that it is a value resort.
I didn't like the fact that there were no towels at the pool. And when you call for more towels in your room, it can take hours for those towels to be delivered. I am slightly OCD and the real plates and silverware in the food court grossed me out. We would ask for extra plates so that we could split meals and more than once, we were handed a dirty plate. It also seemed like every time I picked up silverware, something would be dirty.

We LOVED this resort. We were there in October for a short trip and it is by far our favorite value resort. Took a stroll over to POP while I was there and was so glad I was staying at AoA - everything's new, there is extreme detail all over the place that I so appreciated, loved the food options at the food court, the pools, atmosphere! One night we went over to the Lion King section for the movie of the night and that was nice, too!
We have stayed at values, moderates, and deluxes. Since we are a family of 6, we've gotten 2 rooms elsewhere in the past and now not sure what we'll do on our next trip - trying to decide between 2 rooms at POFQ (our family sentimental favorite) or AoA again. We really liked it! I didn't do a trip report on the boards, but I did write it up with lots of pictures on my blog. The link to it is right below you can view it if you want to - for more detailed info about what we experienced at AoA. http://www.daydreamsandmoonbeams.blo...ppy-place.html

I'm so happy to read some positive reviews of AoA! I think we have decided to stay there on our next trip in September to save a little money and the kids would LOVE the theming! I just hope I can get over the down grade from a mod to a value. I'm just glad I haven't stayed at my "dream" resort yet. LOL I know I couldn't downgrade from a deluxe to a value.

We stayed in a Cars suite and LOVED everything about the resort. Our friends stayed in LM so we made the haul from Cars Bldg 2 to LM Bldg 7 at least 2x per day and we had no issues -- took us about 10 min to cross the whole campus and it is a nice walk along the lake if you chose to go that way. Food court has some flow issues but nothing worse than I saw at ASMo. The theming was great, we had 6 in our suite - my mom, me, MH, DSS8, DS4 and DD3. No issues with space but we did utilize all of the storage space. We even had two single City Mini strollers with us and didn't find it cramped.
We are new DVC members so we probably won't be going back but if the opportunity presented itself, I would stay again.

We stayed in a LM room in September. I didn't think the walk to the food court was bad at all!
We had our car so we didn't use the buses. Food at the food court was great but scraping the plates, etc was a pain. It took a while to clean up when we were finished because there was literally a line for the garbage can. I like the idea of using real plates and utensils to cut down on waste but I think they need a better system. Internet service was crappy but we dealt with it. Didn't use it often enough to really matter. We would definitely stay here again! DS tried two of the pools and we spent one evening taking tons of pics around the resort.

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)Priest who defied the Nazis beatified in Germany
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
May 17th, 2011 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) German priest Georg Haefner preached long and hard against the Third Reich in his native Germany. Sixty-eight years after he died of starvation and disease at Dachau, Haefner, whose death at the hands of the Nazis was judged to be "in odium fidei" -- out of "hatred for the faith." LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Haefner became the fourth member of the fold who perished in the concentration camps to be raised to the honors of the altar. The other saints include Maximilian Kolbe and Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein), and Blessed Franz Jagerstatter, the Austrian farmer who was executed for refusing to be conscripted into Hitler's army. During traditional Sunday greetings to pilgrims in St. Peter's Square, Pope Benedict, who grew up in Bavaria and was forced by the Nazis to serve as a teen in the Hitler Youth, praised Haefner. "In the confusion of National Socialism, Georg Haefner was willing, as a faithful shepherd, to protect his flock and deliver the sacrament and the water of life to many people, until the end of his life," the pope said, speaking in German. "He forgave those who wronged him and in a letter to his parents from prison, he wrote, 'We want to be at peace with everyone.'" The Vatican's lead saint maker, Cardinal Angelo Amato SDB, presided at the ceremonies in the cathedral of Haefner's native Wurzburg, Der Deutschpapst, he commemorated the occasion at his noontime Regina Caeli with these words: "Amid the tumult of Nazism, Georg Hafner was present as a faithful pastor, sacrificing his life to feed his flock, leading many people to the waters of life in the proclamation of the truth and the administration of the sacraments. "He forgave his tormentors from his heart, for as he wrote to his parents from prison: "Let us seek to be good with everyone." Let us entrust ourselves to his intercession, so that we too may hear the voice of Christ, the good shepherd, and so be led to life and joy in abundance. In Germany, Georg's feast will be observed on the date of his death, 20 August. Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) |

Comedian Sebastian Maniscalco – who took the stage at Hollywood's Improv Comedy Club last night — said you can expect about anything from his stand-up…except scripted punch lines, that is.
"It's kind of a social commentary on what's going on in today's society," Maniscalco told Niteside. "It's very observational, very relatable — anything from dating to shopping to teaching my father the Internet. It's not really written out jokes, it's more experiences — I'm just kind of living my favourite south african casino life, and bringing it to the stage."
He added. "I just started watching The Bachelor a couple weeks ago to see what the big deal was…that will probably come up."
Maniscalco – who doubles as comedic style correspondent on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and debuted his first hour-long special, Sebastian Live, on Comedy Central last year – is already gearing up for another segment set to air this fall.
Until then, the Chicago native is knee-deep in his 25 city stand-up tour, including a four-day stint at Hollywood's Improv. And while he says the South Florida crowd is "always a good time," he admits nothing quite compares to teaming up with funnyman Vince Vaughn and other fellow comedians for the Wild West Comedy Show.
"Hanging out with a Vince Vaughn for 30 days on a bus — yeah, that was pretty wild," he laughed. "I remember when Swingers came out, and I read an article about it in the Sun-Times about two guys making this movie on a low budget and no permits, and I thought that was cool.
"Who would have thought 10 years later I'd be starring in a movie with the guy? It's been a wild ride."

Does it seem like everyone around you is suffering from the sniffles? Defend yourself from germs by following these six easy tips:
1. Hygiene: The best way to avoid getting sick is to practice good hygiene. Wash your hands before eating or touching your face, and after using the restroom, handling raw meat, coughing/sneezing or touching shared surfaces around the office, gym or out in public. If soap isn't available, use hand sanitizer.
2. Avoidance: If possible, it's best to avoid or minimize your contact with shared surfaces that may be teeming with germs. These include door handles, railings, elevator buttons, paper money and water fountains. (Read more about fighting germs in the office.)
3. Nutrients: Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, which are chock-full of immune-supporting vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Foods that can be especially helpful include garlic, yogurt, leafy greens and citrus fruits.
4. Exercise: Regular workouts are a great way to keep your immune system in tip-top shape. Be sure to avoid germs at the gym by washing your hands and wiping down machines before and after use.
5. Rest: Need an excuse to take a nap? Adequate rest, including 7-8 hours of sleep per night, can help your body recover from the stresses of the day. Naps and other relaxing activities (meditation, yoga, etc.) can also help your body recharge and support normal immune function.
6. Positive Thoughts: Don't let stress or anxiety get you down "" positive thinking not only helps you stay calm, studies have shown that a cheerful disposition can also promote overall health, by stimulating antibody response within the immune system!

Redbud, I think it's cercis canadensis and I have long wondered if the canadensis does not mean it comes from Canada but is a term for the color of the early opening leaves? There is a potato vine that has heart shaped leaves. |
Some violets. |

EL PASO, TX — As El Paso continues to battle it's DWI problem people in the borderland gathered today to take a stand.
Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) held their third annual "Walk Like MADD" event to raise awareness for victims of drunk driving.
MADD says it's important for the community to step up to say they've had enough.
Grace Talamantes knows exactly what it's like to lose someone to drunk driving.
"My daughter had just turned 19-years-old on October 29, 2007 and she was killed two months later on December 29, 2007," said Talamantes.
Grace Talamantes recalls the death of her teenage daughter when a drunk driver took away her life.
"My daughter had just graduated from Burges High School. She graduated top 10 percent of her class. She was very active in school. She was a cheerleader, was in golf, theater, choir," said Talamantes.
This sobering reality happens to other families as well. MADD says 2011 was one of the most deadly for alcohol related crashes on record.
Thursday night El Paso police arrested 41 -year-old Alberto Ortiz for his 13th DWI, when someone called police saying his Dodge Ram was swerving on Interstate 10.
"We all share those roads. We are not safe anymore. A drunk driver is not going to discriminate. They are not going to say,' I'm not going to hit that car because it's a mom trying to get to her parents or I'm not going to hit that car because it's a doctor who's trying to save lives,'" said Talamantes.
Talamontes says even if you think you are okay to drive after a few drinks, thinking twice can save a life. That way, another mother won't have to bury their child.
"Even if you have had a few drinks, you know you can't have that mentality that it's not going to happen to you. Some people get behind the wheel and say,' Well I only live a block away, I'll make it home.' It's even at that block that you can turn that block and still hurt somebody," said Talamantes.
MADD also raised money during Saturdays "Walk With MADD" event to spread awareness against drunk driving.
The organization reports one in three people will be in an alcohol related car crash during their life time.

Intern Curriculum
The intern year is divided into 13 blocks. One block each is devoted to the coronary care unit and the medical respiratory intensive care unit where call is q3 and q4 respectively.
There are 4.5 call free blocks. These include one block in the emergency room, one elective block of the interns choosing, one 2-week vacation block, and two ambulatory blocks. One of the ambulatory blocks provides the interns with exposure to various outpatient practices, including ophthalmology, orthopedics, oncology, endocrinology, and nephrology during rotating clinics. The second ambulatory block is a general medicine preceptorship where the intern is with a designated community practitioner for the month.
The remaining blocks are devoted to medical inpatient services at Jefferson or the affiliated hospitals. Call on these services is every fourth night. The interns on call are responsible for the work up of new admissions until 7:00 PM. After this time, interns are dismissed. An upper level resident covers the admissions and an additional night float resident covers the remainder of the medical services addressing problems and emergencies.
AWARDS/HONORS: Gregory Kane, MD, receives the ACGME Parker J. Palmer Courage to Teach Award in Nashville, TN, March, 2011.

I want to make a strawberry blond ale and since that blond is so good I wanted to use that as a base. I thought that that hops might be a bit much for the berries though. I was thinking about dropping the cascade additions completely and adding maybe 3-5 lb of berries in the secondary. Any suggestions?
Are you talking about the centennial blonde? I did a blonde ale a year ago or so.......was something like 7lb 2row .5lb crystal 10 .5lb wheat malt galena (60min)* cascade (15min)* *I don't remember the amounts but I hopped it to maybe 30IBU?? I used 1lb frozen strawberrys for every gallon. SWMBO has been bugging me to make it again so......it must have been good
I don't know about dropping all the hops, maybe just the aroma hops at the end. 3-5 lb of berries should be fine. Get the frozen kind as they will be more broken down and will allow the beer to soak up more of the flavor.

"When a friendly ship at range 1 is hit by an attack you may suffer one of the uncanceled [critical hit] results instead of the target ship."
Let's see if I've got this straight. Wedge and Biggs are wingmates, and Biggs is taking all the fire. Wedge still has full shields. Biggs gets dealt the "Direct Hit" damage card. Wedge is equipped with Draw Their Fire and chooses to suffer the effects of the critical hit. But since he still has shields, it would only count as a face-down damage card i.e. Wedge would only lose one shield token instead of two, right? If this Direct Hit would have killed Biggs, Wedge has now stepped in and saved his life, correct?
Let's dig a little deeper. The dastardly villain that dared fire on Biggs was none other than Kath Scarlet, who forces an opponent to take a stress token if they cancel a critical hit. Since this critical hit was not canceled, but instead handed off to Wedge, neither of the Rebels take stress tokens, correct?
Just trying to get a feel for how this card might work. I've written it off up until now, and I'm trying to figure out how best to use it (other than put it on a YT-1300 that has Chewie as a copilot, which has been mentioned numerous times).
