"Wouldn't Mama Be Proud?" exemplifies this tactic. Musically it's a hook-o-rama that sounds like something Eric Carmen might have written on a good day. But the lyrics -- "The question is, wouldn't mama be proud?/ There's a silver lining in the corporate cloud/ And the pretty post that you're taking as an NCO of the great pretender/I should think so!" -- constitute a witheringly sarcastic assault on avarice and those afflicted with it. But instead of spitting out these sentiments as might an industrial-rock maven, Smith practically caresses them. To him, his delivery is more faithful to the ways average Joes and Janes actually behave.
"Most people I know, when they get really mad about something, don't lean out their window and scream about it to people they don't even know," he says. "Usually their voice will drop down low and they'll be like [a near whisper], "That fuckin' pisses me off.' There's lots of things I like to sing about, but not many things I can imagine wanting to scream about."
Except maybe that review in Fortune. "It's incredible to me that they'd do a review of my album at all, and that my name would even appear in that magazine," he fumes. "So part of me is like, "That's a bunch of crap.' But another part of me is like, "Who cares?' I mean, it's Fortune. Besides, everybody's an expert when it comes to music. If it was a painting, they'd have to go ask somebody else who knew something about painting. But since it's pop music, everybody feels in a position to criticize people.
"It really bothers me when I think about it. So I don't think about it very much."

Learning to write letters formed an integral part of early education, and letterwriting manuals provided students with hundreds of exemplary letters to use as models for all kinds of situations.
William Fulwood's The Enimie of Idlenesse was the first letterwriting manual to be printed in English. Published in ten editions by 1621, it was essentially a translation of the French manual, Le Stile et manière de composer, dicter, et escrire toute sorte d'epistres (1566). But perhaps the most influential English letterwriting manual was Angel Day's English Secretarie . In it, Day insists that letterwriters should adhere to a new ABC—"Aptnes, brevity & comeliness"— in their letters and emphasizes the importance of letterwriting as a modern, social transaction.

Encino, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 01/27/2014 -- Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick, recently announced the addition of the Zoom!® Chairside Whitening System as a treatment options for new and established patients at his Encino California dentist office. To celebrate this new addition to their full line of dental services and to help patients kick off 2014 with a bright, white smile, Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick and his staff are offering Zoom! at the discounted price of $279, marked down from the regular price of $450.
Safe, quick and, now, fairly inexpensive thanks to Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick special offer, Zoom! is a special light-activated teeth whitening system performed in the dentist's office.
"Patients will spend two hours in our office and the results are immediate," says Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick.
Nearly all teeth become discolored with age – from hereditary factors to coffee, soda, wine and food stains. As one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures on the market today, teeth whitening is virtually painless. As opposed to many of the take-home products found on store shelves, the Zoom! system utilizes the Zoom! light to activate the gel and it is performed by a trained professional with less mess and safer, faster results.
To better understand the benefits of teeth whitening and to decide if a patient is a likely candidate for the procedure, Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick recommends setting up a consultation visit or discussing the Zoom! system during a regularly-scheduled tooth exam or cleaning. In addition, dental cleanings are recommended to remove plaque and tartar build-up prior to the Zoom! treatment.
Proper care after Zoom! treatment
As with all patients, Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick recommends that those who undergo a Zoom! whitening procedure continue to practice good oral hygiene. His staff is happy to provide information and tips to maintain a bright and healthy smile. Avoiding foods that may stain teeth – berries, wine, and those with added food coloring to name a few – as well as steering clear of smoking and tobacco habits is strongly recommended not only as a way to lengthen the Zoom! results, but for overall as well.
For a more accurate, safer dental implant procedure using the latest, most effective technology, there's no better option than Encino Dentist Dr Craig Glick. To schedule a complimentary consultation to discuss dental implants or another dental or periodontal procedure with the esteemed Dr Craig Glick DDS and his Periodontics & Dental Implant Center today.
The in-office whitening gel took two years to develop and features four different types of stabilizers and a hydrogen peroxide solution designed for in situ activation. Although this gel and the Take Home Kit have proven to be as effective as or more effective than competing products they are priced 30 to 50 percent less than comparable products. "New clients are surprised to see how well our products work when put up against more mainstream and expensive big name whiteners," says Dentist Encino Dr Craig Glick DDS . "Our existing clients, on the other hand, are used to getting high quality products at an affordable price."

Tax Preparers Indicted For Tax Fraud
TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA – Kenneth L. Barber, 61, Anthony Tyree Barber, 25, and Shavita Altrecia Davis, 38, all of Tallahassee, have been indicted on charges of conspiring to commit federal tax fraud and committing other crimes relating to the filing of false tax returns.
The indictment alleges that between 2006 and 2010, Kenneth Barber owned and operated tax preparation businesses under the names of KLB Group Developers, Inc., and Kenneth Barber & Associates, Inc., in Tallahassee. Shavita Davis and Anthony Barber were his employees. According to the indictment, the defendants prepared and taught others to prepare false tax returns that Kenneth Barber subsequently filed with the IRS to fraudulently obtain tax refunds. The false statements contained with the tax returns included false claims of household help income, charitable contributions, dependent exemptions, filing status, and education expenses, among others.
The indictment also charges Kenneth Barber with 32 substantive counts of preparing and presenting false tax returns, and 20 counts of wire fraud arising from the fraudulent tax preparation scheme. Anthony Barber is charged with 11 substantive counts of preparing and presenting false tax returns, and 11 counts of wire fraud. Davis is charged with 19 counts of preparing and presenting false tax returns, and 8 counts of wire fraud. The indictment was announced today by Pamela C. Marsh, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Florida.
Shavita Altrecia Davis and Anthony Tyree Barber are scheduled for trial on May 7, 2012, in United States District Court in Tallahassee. Kenneth Barber's trial date has not been scheduled.
If convicted, the defendants face maximum sentences of five years' imprisonment for conspiracy, three years' imprisonment on each count of preparing and presenting fraudulent tax returns, and twenty years' imprisonment on each count of wire fraud.
U.S. Attorney Marsh praised the work of the Internal Revenue Service, whose investigation led to the indictment in the case.
The government's case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Winifred Acosta NeSmith.
An indictment is merely an allegation by a grand jury that a defendant has committed a violation
of federal criminal law and is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent and
are entitled to a fair trial, during which it will be the government's burden to prove guilt beyond

"Unpredictable is an outstanding effort and ..."
"Unpredictable sounds rich and polished"
"John gives strong vocals (Marc Cohn sound), fine guitar work, as would be expected powerful songwriting and great production"
John McVey was born in Princeton, NJ. He was given a guitar for his eighth birthday. He was completely self-taught until college, where he majored in music. He graduated from Rutgers University with a BA. He was a piano tuner for years, while putting himself through school and beginning his songwriting and performing career. He currently works as a producer/engineer at Coupe Studios in Boulder, CO. He still writes songs and makes CDs and performs live.
He's been named The National Academy of Songwriters "Artist Of The Year." He's won the Kerrville "New Folk" Contest, and has been a finalist in many others, like New Folks, in CO, and Napa Folks Festival in CA. Even early on, with his first band, he won the Marlboro Music Talent Roundup in Philadelphia, and went on to be a finalist in Nashville, competing with winners from eight other cities around the US. McVey has also written, produced, recorded and performed many commercial spots. Best known is the TELE Award winning "Umpire" spot for The Foundation For A Better Life. He wrote and performed the song for this 60 second spot, which has been played millions of times since 1999. Others include The US Ski Team, Dish Network, The Idaho Lottery, Ford Trucks, and many more.
He's shared stages with Jonatha Brooke, Shawn Mullins, Vonda Shepard, Edwin McCain, Joe Ely, Lari White and many more. He's appeareded on TV shows like Good Morning Atlanta and Nashville's CMT, and many, many radio shows. He's recorded with musicians like Jonatha Brooke, Patty Griffin, Duke Levine, Matt Rollings, Ron Miles. He's given his time and his music to national charities like Big Brothers/Big Sisters and the Make A Wish Foundation. And he's donating a percentage of sales of his new CD to the Kids Food Basket program in Grand Rapids, MI.
Since 1990, McVey has been a soothing presence on the CDs of Music Together, a music education program for pre-school children and their parents. He is the "daddy" in a virtual family depicted on these CDs. This program is now multi national and has reached millions of families, world-wide.
John has produced hundreds of projects. Starting as an artist gives him a huge advantage as a producer. He's spent most of his life on the business end of a microphone (and still does regularly, both live and in the studio), and is able to contribute this experience to his artist clients. As a writer, he is a student of what makes a song work. As a music enthusiast, he is a student of sonic excellence. As a player and singer, he is a student of accuracy and soulful expression. As a student of all of these things, he is able to bring his years of experience and hundreds of projects to get the most out of every performance, every instrument, and every piece of equipment.
John McVey brings a unique and contagious enthusiasm to everything he's a part of. It's obvious he loves what he does.

Until we get a fundamental grasp of that fact and stop listening to the NRA, all we can do is bury our dead, mourn their loss, and prepare for the next massacre.

It turns out that other loan servicers, in other contexts, do exactly the same thing.
Yes, because the same predators that ran the mortgage scam are running these, and they will continue to do so until we start sending them to jail.
The financial system is beyond repair. It needs to be gutted and rebuilt from the ground up.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Talk Rises About Sovereign Debt Cancellation
I wouldn't expect to see this gain traction until a breakup of the EU goes from "possible" to "probable", and even then it will be reactive and not proactive.

Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Denver Teen's Death by Drone Remains Shrouded in Secrecy
I suspect that the "Zeus Effect" is quite heady and intoxicating and, therefore, probably impossible to control. I recommend that drone strikes be made illegal on these grounds alone.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. And, as Charles Piercer recently alluded, Obama is quite like Zeus, wielding Hellfire missiles like so many lightening bolts from the sky.
Absolute power, indeed.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Low Rate of Household Formation Hurting Housing Market
And it will continue to be a problem, even if the banks keep enough homes off the market to constrain industry and lower months-of-supply.
And, of course, the fact that the banks are doing such a great job of maintaining all these houses they're keeping off the market is only going to make things better, too. So, the solution is…more free money for rich bankers!

You have to wonder why the DNC decided that this fight wasn't worth fighting. Maybe they would rather have a whipped and demoralized populace, too.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post New York Times Reporter Calls Out Administration for Bragging About Austerity
Not only does Obama have to fight the hysteria created by being the first black president, he also has to fight the perception that he cares more about the jobs of bank CEOs that he does about jobs for the middle class.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Happy Talk on Housing and Mortgages Masks Dangers
"If you are a distressed family coming off of a foreclosure, the last thing you need is escalating rental rates," Rick Sharga, executive vice president of Carrington Mortgage Holdings, told the trade publication Housing Wire last month.
Yes, but if you're a distressed family who has just had their credit destroyed by a foreclosure, are any of these "white-glove slumlords" going to rent to you? The market for credit-worthy renters is just as tight (or tighter) than credit-worth home owners.

regulators have yet to finish writing the rule and haven't determined whether the trading would have violated the draft version of the rule that has been released
I think you mean the lobbyists have yet to finish writing the rule, not the regulators.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Almost No Regular Americans Rank Deficit As Their Top Issue
The bizarre obsession by mainstream media and political elites with the deficit during an employment crisis isn't based on public outcry, nor is it drive by the market, given that our government borrowing costs are near historic lows.
hat's your 1% right there.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Waters Challenges Khuzami on Securitization Fraud Task Force, Gets Revealing Answers
So the jig is up, then. The vaunted working group is really nothing more than a repository for existing cases and investigations with a public relations patina applied to them
Did you really think it would be otherwise. The grip of the financial industry on the government agencies that regulate it is nearly complete. Until that changes, nothing will happen, and no one will ever be held truly accountable.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Wisconsin Recall: More Resources, but No Change in Strategy to Defeat Walker
but the DNC has rebutted the criticism on their end, saying that they have given significant funds to the state party in Wisconsin this year, that DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz will help Barrett raise money later in the month, and that they plan to make available voter lists and OFA volunteers for the effort.
Whatever. The very fact that the DNC doesn't consider this to be one of the most important races this year shows just how out of touch they are. But that won't stop them from shifting blame if Walker wins or taking the credit if he loses.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Elizabeth Warren Expresses No Confidence in Current Bank Accountability Measures
Schneiderman in particular, and the Justice Department, have pushed back on criticisms, claiming that the task force remains committed to pursuing the investigation wherever it leads.
bla bla bla heard it all before whatever.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post CA AG Kamala Harris Rejects Governor Brown's Attempt to Raid Foreclosure Fraud Settlement Funds
Only by the voters giving the legislature the power to tax to pay for the spending the voters mandate can California get out of the hole the anti-tax free lunch tooth fairy economic policy the voters have made Constitutionally necessary.
Exactly. I wonder how much worse things will have to get before the wake up a realize what a mess that silly tax rule has made of California?
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Greece to Hold New Elections
Given the choice of new elections and rule by technocrat, I think the Greeks made the wise choice. "Rule by Technocrat" is merely corporatism by another name. Greece is a democracy. Let the people choose their path, not some non-elected technocrat.
Hippie Joe commented on the blog post Common Cause Sues to Have Filibuster Declared Unconstitutional
I could also picture the judiciary ruling against this suit on the grounds that each chamber is allowed to make its own rules, but as part of that decision the Court reaffirms that a simple majority of senators already has the legal authority to change their rules and eliminate the filibuster at any time.
The Supreme Court will rule whichever way helps the Republicans.

Resuscitation Choreography Featured on FOX 31 News
"New Techniques Save More Lives of Heart Attack Victims"
Aurora, CO, March 13, 2012
Deborah Takahara
From KDVR.com:
Seconds count when your heart suddenly stops and you go into cardiac arrest. The Aurora Fire Department and The Medical Center of Aurora are teaming up to improve your chances of survival.
The Aurora Fire Department coined the phrase "resuscitation choreography" three years ago. And now, they have integrated it into the Medical Center of Aurora.
Dr. Gilbert Pineda, EMS Medical Director for Aurora said, "You have to have a set choreography, set time to do certain steps in the process of chest compressions. So we said let's get everyone to work together. The process is to get what they do in the field to get the hospital to do the same thing essentially or work together well, so you have a well choreographed process of transferring the patient."

New Alternatives
The third preview for Talisman: The Frostmarch |
Talisman | Published 23 October 2009 |
You have journeyed far and faced countless perils in your quest to claim the Crown of Command, but as you make your dangerous final ascent, an unnatural chill cuts through you. Someone, or something, has already taken your prize, and even now grows stronger as it awaits your arrival. You draw your sword, hoping that the trials of the past several weeks have been enough to prepare you for the fight ahead...
Welcome to the third preview for The Frostmarch, the upcoming expansion for Talisman! In our first preview, we looked at two new characters, the mighty Ogre Chieftain and the cunning Leprechaun. Last time, we met another playable character: The Warlock, and we saw how new Warlock Quests will play an important role in your Talisman strategy. Today, we'll explore two of the new alternative endings to be found in The Frostmarch.
Originally introduced in a past edition of Talisman, Alternative Ending Cards may be familiar to long-time fans of the classic adventure game. These optional additions provide variety and strategy to Talisman by fundamentally changing the game's victory condition. Depending on the tastes of the players (and the restrictions of the cards themselves), these cards can be unrevealed, meaning that only upon reaching the Crown of Command does a potential winner learn the true objective of the game, or revealed, which allows all players to adjust their strategies according to that objective.
Further underscoring the importance of Warlock Quest Cards to The Frostmarch, our first Alternative Ending Card requires that players collect and complete four Warlock Quests as proof of their worthiness to wear the Crown of Command. This makes effects that alter Warlock Quests, like last week's Glory Seeker, even more risky!
A deadly sorceress responsible for bringing The Frostmarch to the land, the vile Ice Queen is the subject of another terrifying Alternative Ending Card. When this card is in play, a character standing on the Crown of Command must choose whether to attack the Ice Queen using Strength or Craft... and either way, she's a formidable adversary. This hearty foe has four lives, meaning that her attacker must best her multiple times before victory can be claimed. What's more, if the attacking hero ever loses, he or she will face a punishment in addition to the loss of a life, and it may include being sent all the way back to the plain of peril!
The Ice Queen has more than a few nasty tricks up her sleeve, but all will be revealed in time...
Talisman is a classic game of adventuring. Your character journeys through the lands in search of the powerful Crown of Command. Take control of one of 14 different characters from a powerful Troll to a magical Druid.
I love the alternate endings, getting to the drown of command and winning is way too easy if there is no one else in the inner region.
The comfortable speed that the Expansions have been coming our for Talisman has been excellent, giving enough time to play one expansion before another comes out.
The Warlock character is awesome!
I am really looking forward what the Ice queen will do :)
I think it will be the best ending so far for 4th edition revised..
Only the Dragon Tower can beat the Ice queen from her place hahaha:D
Ok, so let me get this straight. We would have to get past all of the perils in the inner realm and then wrestle the Ice Queen from her throne 4x? That seems a little surreal. I am in favour of the Warlock Quests as long as I go through the deck of cards and take out all of the Talisman cards so that it is worthwhile.
I love what FFG is doing with Talisman and I am hoping that one of the two surprises is the extra corner board!
What a great ideas! Especially the Ice Queen. I would like to hear something more about her.
Yep, it looks like all the best thing form previous editions are going to be used. That's a great news!
Especialy the alternative endings are goods.
It's good basic variation that will have players "doing" more during the game. Thumbs up.
Hmm,i like it a lot,but did not understand,never mind;)
Which is the fourth character,i have only seen the leprechaun and the warlock+ogre chieftan...the fourth???Can anibody tell me please where will this ice queen be?Tenks
Alternate endings RULE!, we need more expansions faster FFG!!!!! ;)
Excellent, lets get this expansion out, mixed into the deck and move swiftly onto big box number 2 pls FF!!
Liking the Alt endings, i never used them back in the day

Can anyone recommend free software for creating a kitchen layout? If you have several recs, what are the pros and cons of reach? Also, is there any good, free software for creating a layout of the entire house? And when one measures, do we just measure the room space and some how the software calculates the wall thickness? Or is this something we should just pay a professional to do this. We are moving into a new home and would need the layout for choosing furniture, figuring out the appropriate size of the area rugs, etc. Thank you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I am not one who has software but the link below is from a GW thread discussion in Dec 2012/ Feb 2013. I googled gardenweb kitchen design software and several threads came up. This was the most recent with the most entries. Maybe other GWers will check in to give you more help. |

"To the veteran with the Camry. You are mistaken. The Camry is assembled in America which means all the R&D, the parts, and the materials to make that car, come over in a container from Japan. And most importantly the purchasing dollar goes right back into Japan's economy, not ours."
"Comment on Obama's last ad where he stopped tires coming here from China ... What about all the cars coming here from Korea? How many Hyundais and Kias do you see on the road, and Korea will not let our cars into their country."
"I am a registered Republican (47 years) who will be voting for Obama and Carmona."
"The date Sept. 11th is Coptic New Year, that is, the new year festival of Egyptian Coptic Orthodox Christians. That date was deliberately chosen — and continues to be chosen — to send a message that all Christians in the Middle East are being targeted for extermination. People should be aware of this fact."

I don't know if you are aware that March is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month. To honour that I decided to do a little bit of research.
Did you know that cerebral palsy was first discovered by a man named William John Little? William John Little however was not the man to coin the term cerebral palsy. The term was coined by Sir William Osler who was the first person to write a book about the condition. (This information was paraphrased from the following source.)
In celebration of cerebral palsy awareness month I have opened a store selling blog products. Feel free to browse, and spread the word about cerebral palsy by purchasing an item to use everyday.

Buffett's Board Selects Manager to Eventually Take Over as Berkshire CEO, Won't Say Who It Is (Bloomberg)
…saying instead that directors were "enthusiastic" and have had "a great deal of exposure" to the person designated to take over as CEO. Buffett, 81, didn't specify a timeline for the switch.
Buffett On Hormones, Housing (Berkshire Letter)
Every day we are creating more households than housing units. People may postpone hitching up during uncertain times, but eventually hormones take over. And while "doubling-up" may be the initial reaction of some during a recession, living with in-laws can quickly lose its allure. At our current annual pace of 600,000 housing starts – considerably less than the number of new households being formed – buyers and renters are sopping up what's left of the old oversupply.
Buffett Says BofA Warrants Have 'Great Value,' Praises Moynihan (Bloomberg)
"Some huge mistakes were made by prior management," wrote Buffett, 81. "Brian Moynihan has made excellent progress cleaning these up, though the completion of that process will take a number of years. Concurrently, he is nurturing a huge and attractive underlying business that will endure long after today's problems are forgotten."
Berkshire Profit Falls 30% on Insurance, Derivatives (WSJ)
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. said fourth-quarter profit fell 30% as the conglomerate's insurance units struggled and derivatives bets added less to the bottom line. Mr. Buffett, who serves as Omaha, Neb.-based Berkshire's chairman and chief executive, has urged investors to evaluate the firm by how it is growing in relation to the broader market. He often draws attention to Berkshire's book value, a measure of assets and liabilities that he says understates the company's actual value but can serve as an objective indicator of the company's performance over time. Berkshire's book value increased 4.6% in 2011, exceeding the 2.1% return of the benchmark Standard & Poor's 500 Index. It marks the first time in three years that Berkshire's book value increased more than the return of the S&P, according to data provided by Mr. Buffett on the second page of Berkshire's annual report released early Saturday.
Buffett–Adding IBM but more tech unlikely (Reuters)
Berkshire Hathaway Inc has bought more shares in International Business Machines Corp during the first quarter but is unlikely to do much more investing in the technology sector, Warren Buffett told CNBC on Monday. Buffett, asked about Apple Inc, said he has never bought the shares. He did note, though, that Apple's late CEO Steve Jobs contacted him a few years ago seeking advice about that company's substantial cash pile.
Actress Lucy Lawless arrested in oil-ship protest (AP)
Police arrested actress Lucy Lawless and five Greenpeace activists Monday, four days after they climbed onto an oil-drilling ship to prevent it from leaving a New Zealand dock. Police removed the protesters from their perch atop a 174-foot (53-meter) drilling tower on the Noble Discoverer in Port Taranaki. Chartered by oil company Shell, the ship had been due to leave over the weekend to drill five exploratory wells in the Arctic. Lawless and six activists climbed the tower early Friday to stop the ship's departure and raise awareness about Arctic oil drilling…Lawless, 43, a native New Zealander, is best known for her title role in the TV series "Xena: Warrior Princess," and more recently for starring in the Starz cable television series "Spartacus."
Anti-Greece Statements Will 'Destroy' Deal Says Greek Minister (CNBC)
Pavlos Yeroulanos, Cultural & Tourism Minister of Greece, warned: "If you are speaking with both sides of your mouth, one side to the markets and one side to the electorate, then you are going to destroy what you are trying to create. Germany needs the euro just as much as Greece does. They need to decide whether they will make a real commitment to the euro, which has been a great thing for the German economy," he added.
Europe Left to Dig Deeper After G-20 Rebuffs Call for Help (Bloomberg)
The decision by G-20 finance ministers to fend off pleas for assistance pending an increase in the euro-area backstop puts the onus on Germany, the biggest national contributor to bailouts, to overcome its resistance to doing more. With a parliamentary vote on a second Greek aid package looming in Berlin today, German Chancellor Angela Merkel's government must now decide whether to back plans at a March 1-2 European Union summit to combine rescue funds and produce a potential firewall of 750 billion euros ($1 trillion).

Investigators Scrutinize MF Global Wire Transfers (NYT)

Sacha Baron Cohen as 'The Dictator' storms Academy Awards red carpet, dumps ashes on Ryan Seacrest (NYDN)
The 40-year-old actor showed up in full costume and full character as Admiral General Shabazz Aladeen the titular despot from his upcoming movie, "The Dictator." "Ryan, hello! Death to the West," Cohen greeted Seacrest. When Seacrest provided the straight line as to why Cohen was carrying an urn with the late North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il's likeness on the side, the actor explained in a thick Middle Eastern accent: "It gave me the opportunity to bring my dear friend and double tennis partner Kim Jong Il. It was his dream to come to the Oscars and be sprinkled over the red carpet and Halle Cerry's chest again."" Cohen said, before seeming to trip and dump the urn's contents all over Seacrest's tuxedo.

At least then it will be an honest discussion, albeit a less verbal one. If the Greeks feel they have to fight to survive, so be it. But if they're going to whine about the terms of their bailout not being satisfactory…. don't accept them…. default. This back and forth is ridiculous.

There's a lot to see and do in Borderlands 2, so it's worth drawing up a list of priority targets well in advance. Here are a few of the secrets, Easter eggs and hotspots we've discovered, with a bit of help from the citizens of the Internet.
1. Teenage Mutant Ninja Bandits
This Turtles-inspired mission begins with you picking up a pizza from Moxie's, and taking it into a base you've visited before. Don't follow the map around - look left for a sewer system early on in the map. After you've defeated the four colour-coded bodacious thugs, you'll find a room with a TV, and a number of switches. Look at the wall, and use the various switches to get them all green for a secret bonus boss. He dropped some nice purple guns for us...
2. Getting into Buzzard
In The Dust, you can get into the Buzzard camp by driving at speed up a huge rocky outcrop. Don't use your boost, or you'll end up in an area which immediately spawns a lot of enemies. Driving at a normal speed drops you in a relatively safe starting area.
3. Secrets of Caustic Caverns (mild spoilers)
Been to Sanctuary yet? It's not your average hub city. At some point in the campaign, the entire place will take to the skies, leaving a massive crater. Explore that crater and you'll discover the Caustic Caverns, an optional side area filled with esoteric enemies and nasty acid pools. Near the bottom are some dirt blocks which will be familiar if you're a fan of Minecraft. Melee attack the blocks to enter a cavern filled with Creepers and Minecraft character skins.
4. Meet Michael Mamaril
Michael Mamaril was Borderlands fan who passed away from cancer at the age of 22. Gearbox's David Eddings - voice of Claptrap - recorded a eulogy for Michael last November, and the studio has also immortalised him as a Borderlands 2 NPC. You'll find the man at random locations in Sanctuary. Speak to him to get free guns and an Achievement, "Tribute to a Vault Hunter".
5. Find Hyperion's Energising Bane
Fancy winding yourself up to no good purpose? Complete the "Bane" quest series in Wild Western town Lynchwood. You'll be rewarded with an SMG that... well, it's simplest if you just watch the video. Bear in mind that it reduces your sprint speed too. Thanks, PC Gamer?
6. Chubby Loot
Deep in the Highlands, not far from Blake Bridge, there's a rare critter known as Chubby which bestows an Achievement and special loot when slain. Head down the tunnel to your left after fast-travelling to the area to find the bridge. The Chubby only comes out at night, and isn't guaranteed to appear every time. If in doubt, leave and complete a few missions, then try again.
7. Infinite Eridium
Eridium is your best friend, traveller - it's a currency, key to getting hold of high level weapons, that you can also use to augment other elements. Fancy securing an unlimited supply? Head to Three Horns valley and head north to the hideout where you fight the Bad Maw boss, right next to the entrance to Bloodshot Stronghold. Kill Bad Maw and pick up the Eridium he drops. Then, enter the Bloodshot Stronghold, save and quit, return to Three Horns Valley and kill Bad Maw again to get more Eridium. Repeat ad nauseam.
8. Get hold of the Nova Shield
One of our favourite shield effects is Nova damage, and there's a unique Level 9 shield that's good for all the Nova damage you can eat. Finish Lilith's Firehawk mission chain (it begins in Sanctuary, but mostly takes place in Frostburn Cavern), and you'll get an Orange Shield that, when depleted, emits bursts of fire that will frequently ignite people, causing a later death that'll give you a Second Wind if you get knocked down. (Warning: the blast can also wipe out the last of your enemies, leaving you with no-one to get your Second Wind from.)
An extra bonus is that the "Death By Nova Damage" Badass rank is one of the easiest to level up. Keep Lilith's shield equipped, and you'll have 100 Badass points for no work at all.

TIBA/Betel Nut and Tobacco Container Bamboo
Bamboo betel nut and tobacco container called TIBA in local language from TTS in the central highlands of West Timor. The maker of this container has decorated the body of this fine piece with styalized triangle motif bands.
This well used tiba has the top and bottom created from the natural bamboo join.
This style of container is deliberately made of a different shape to the more elaborate lime powder containers so as to be able to easily distinguish them in the dark of a hut or inside a bag.
14cm / 5.5" tall.
Yes it is chalk powder but it is not as neutral as the chalk that we use on our blackboards.Lime powder in Timor is in fact the fossil coral which is gathered then crushed then stewed in a pot, then put into the sun to bake in caked then rerushed then strainedso as to remove the dirt and grit and other impurities. It is fine balance of just how muchlime powder to add to your betel mix because even just a little too much can burn your mouth.When chewing betel nut, first the nut is prepared by peeling the skin off and cutting the seed in to quarters, sometimes eights, and placing it in the cheek pouch in the mouth. Then out comes the lime powder container. A small amount (and they are very careful) is tapped out into the palm of the left hand and tossed into the mouth. Mastication begins. Next (out of the betel/tobacco container) comes the sirih leaf or asparagus-like spear from the sirih vine. A whole leaf or about one sixth of a spear is tossed into the mouth. This is all well chewed resulting in a bright orange salivary mix the excess of which is spat onto the ground retaining the bulk of the solids in the mouth and continuing to chew. If tobacco is going to be added it is about now that the chewer takes a small wad of chewing tobacco and slips it under the upper lip to moisten it prior to combining it with the rest of the mixture held in the mouth.All in all a fine art indeed. Can you imagine squatted under a tree with your friends sharing conversation and chewing betel nut until your mouth is numb and your head is spinning.....
Because of the diameter of this treasure it must be sent as a parcel. You can put 2 or 3 items of a similar weight into one parcel to maximize shipping.

Wait, There's a National Clean Off Your Desk Day?!
- January 24, 2014
- By Black Enterprise
- 1 Comment
There seems to be a "national day" for almost everything, from celebrating rubber duckies and bittersweet chocolate to advocating for awareness of the Heimlich maneuver. (Yes, there's a National Heimlich Maneuver Day, folks.)
Last Sunday, January 12th, just happened to be National Clean Off Your Desk Day, and as frivolously ridiculous as it might sound to some, a tidy workspace can do wonders for productivity and peace of mind. (Click here to tweet this thought.)
A recent survey by Office Max found that 90 percent of Americans admit that unorganized clutter at home or at work has a negative impact on their life and said their productivity (77 percent), state of mind (65 percent), motivation (53 percent) and happiness (40 percent) are affected when there is disorder.
Correlation has also been noted between office disorganization and possibility of promotion; as organization expert Peter Walsh says, "If you have a cluttered office, you risk being seen as inefficient or not on top of your work. [Disorganization] suggests a degree of incompetence that clouds your abilities. You run the risk of jeopardizing your chance of a promotion."

Honda Hybrid Cars: Near-Zero Emissions
Honda is changing the world in terms of advances in fuel economy, low emission and use of alternative, renewable energy in its vehicle models. Honda's environmental perspectives are clear and responsible, and these are evident in the Honda hybrid cars that are introduced into the automotive market.
The commitment all started more than twenty years ago when Honda introduced sometime in 1974 the simple Civic CVCC which was trail-blazing for its fuel efficiency and low emissions. The Civic then, the first vehicle to meet the U.S. Clean Air Act of 1970, is a testament to Honda's environmentally responsive use of technology. This was followed by other Honda developments like the first hybrid vehicle and fuel cell cars. After this, Honda hybrid cars have been propelled to fame.
Fuel Economy
In 1986, the Honda Civic became the first 4-cylinder car that exceeded the 50 miles per gallon fuel-economy record. And this is Honda's continuing concern years thereafter in all its models.
In 1999, Honda introduced the Insight with Honda hybrid cars technology. Gaining up to 70 miles per gallon, Americans were introduced to a new insight on transportation without the attendant huge fuel consumption and costs.
In 2005, Honda maintained its status as the number one producer of fuel-economy cars amongst six major carmakers. It is presently trying to best itself by further improving its fuel economy averages to, hopefully in the next three years, 29 miles to the gallon by 5%. In 2006, the Civic Hybrid won the World Green Car award, to gain yet another proof of its commitment and conviction.
Near-Zero Emissions
Honda continued to innovate and develop clean-air technology. Lowering emissions through all ranges of Honda hybrid cars was a commitment and responsibility espoused by the company. Honda is the first car company to meet low emission requirements and is pioneering in zero- and partial-zero emission cars.
Take the Civic GX, which in 1999 used compressed natural gas as an alternative energy source to attain near-zero emissions. It was recognized then by the EPA as the cleanest internal combustion engine yet. Even as Honda vehicles meet stringent emission standards at present, it all started in 1996 when the Civic became the first low-emission vehicle (LEV) and the Ridgeline the first ultra-low-emission vehicle (ULEV).
Continuing Development
Such is Honda's passion – to continue to search and develop the technology demanded by the times. Take the FCX, a working hydrogen fuel cell vehicle which came about as a result of advanced Honda technology to seek promising alternative fuel sources. It hopes to realize soon its dreams of mass-available cars that are pollution-free and powered by sustainable, renewable energy…

Conservative Sarkozy Wins Presidency of France
Re:Are you sure ... (962 comments)
Besides, she's right. She wasn't threatening violence from dissatisfied voters -- she was pointing out that it was Sarkozy's policies which ignited race riots two years ago.
I wish Sarkozy and the Republic well, and the Socialists are long overdue for reform. Further, even though Royal is one of the world's hottest-looking politicians, she campaigned terribly. I just worry French voters may find they're going to get exactly what they just voted for.
