Sonics guard Ray Allen reacts after sinking a three-pointer with 5.4 seconds left in Sunday night's game against San Antonio at KeyArena. Allen finished with a game-high 33 points.
In absence of the playoffs, the Sonics and their faithful following have nights such as these, when Seattle plays nothing like the second-to-last place team in the Western Conference and KeyArena reverberates beneath an army of stomping feet. When they beat a team like the San Antonio Spurs — co-leaders of the Western Conference — 106-102.
Speaking of furious feet, San Antonio's Bruce Bowen added another chapter to his explosive feud with Ray Allen on Sunday when he drove his right foot into the back of the Sonics guard, which was like throwing a can of gasoline on a bonfire.
At the time, the Sonics were down 11 late in the second quarter, but Bowen's antics provided sufficient motivation for Seattle to play one of its best games of the season.
Allen admitted that he nearly threw a punch at Bowen, but he kept his cool and answered with 5.4 seconds remaining when he drained the winning three-pointer.
"I like the competition and I don't mind a guy going at me on both sides of the floor," said Allen, who broke out of a two-game shooting slump and finished with a game-high 33 points.
"I get a lot of that with Kobe Bryant. We go at each other on defense and offense. I can respect that. But when guys start throwing elbows and when they kick you when you're down, that's dirty basketball and I don't respect that."
The Allen-Bowen battles were well-chronicled during last year's Western Conference semifinals when Allen sprained his right ankle after getting tangled up with the San Antonio forward.
A year earlier, Allen described Bowen's antics as "sissy ball," and on Sunday he had more to say about Bowen.
"I wasn't going to allow him to bait me when I went at him and possibly allow him to get me kicked out of the game," Allen said. "I just think that it's coward basketball. I don't even call it basketball."
The Allen-Bowen incident occurred at the 5:45 mark in the second quarter when San Antonio held its largest lead (39-28).
Allen went up for a shot and was crowded by Bowen and Nazr Mohammed. The Sonics guard and Bowen crashed to the floor simultaneously and Allen landed on Bowen's left foot.
Bowen then kicked Allen in the back, which prompted an angry retort. However, Mohammed quickly corralled Allen and officials rushed in.
The brouhaha resulted in Bowen drawing a technical and ignited a 5-0 Sonics run that allowed them to cut San Antonio's lead to 39-33.
"For us, we were disappointed that he [Bowen] didn't get ejected because he [Allen] got kicked right in the back," Rashard Lewis said. "If you can just go out and kick somebody and not get ejected, then I should have did it, too."
The Sonics' spark was short-lived, but they climbed back into the game late in the third quarter with a flurry of three-pointers. Luke Ridnour (19 points and seven assists) tied the score 69-69 with a trey from the corner. Ridnour dropped another three-pointer with seconds remaining in the third to knot the score at 74-74.
The Sonics led 100-93 with 3:12 remaining, but were undone by three turnovers and a missed layup on their next four possession. The drought opened the door for the Spurs, who ran off nine unanswered points to take a 102-100 lead with 39.5 seconds left.
That's when Allen took over.
Ridnour threw an inbounds pass to rookie center Johan Petro, who handed the ball to Allen. Petro turned to screen Bowen, and Allen launched a three-pointer over Tim Duncan that splashed in the net and gave the Sonics a 103-102 lead with 5.4 seconds left.
On the ensuing possession, Petro poked the ball away from Duncan and Lewis grabbed the loose ball. He drained three free throws to seal the victory and finished with 16 points.
Chris Wilcox added 14 for Seattle (28-41) and San Antonio (54-16) was led by Duncan's 28. Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker each had 17 and Bowen had 12.
"That's the kind of game that All-Stars need to play like All-Stars and guys playing for contracts need to play like they want to get paid," coach Bob Hill said. "That's how we played. I thought our effort was outstanding the whole time."

Hi! I have been so hooked on amaryllis for the past 2 years and have been cross pollinating my amaryllis collection (almost 80 varieties). I collected a LOT of seeds and have grown some of them. My first batch of seedlings are 1 1/2 year olds and the second batch are 6 month olds. I have read that amaryllis seedlings should be avoided to be put to rest during winter time at least for the first year. So that would mean that the first batch can be put to rest this winter time. The second batch will need to be grown indoors this winter. I have NEVER grown plants using artificial lights. I am planning to grow them in a semi-basement where the temp. stays in the 50-60s. Humidity is no problem with amaryllis. Space is also not a problem. I have this long countertop in the laundry room that I can occupy. I dearly need help or suggestions on which light bulbs to use that would be efficient enough and at the same time economical for me. I still have hundreds of seeds waiting to be planted. YES, I am amaryllis crazy. And here are the reasons why...
http://s43.photobucket.com/albums/e398/mkaea62/? Thank you so much in advance! You all have a happy gardening day!!! |

Wow, nice collection there buddy. Hmmm lets see. You need more power than fluorescents, and a narrow but long counter top means multiple lights to cover the correct areas. dont get me wrong, you can keep the plants alive with 4' shop lights, but thats about it, they will survive not flourish. You can go one of two ways. A 400 watt mh light costs about 100 bucks(www.insidesun.com) That will cover an area 3'x3' effectivley. You could buy 2 or 3 depending on how long the counter top is, or you could buy one light and a linear light mover. Multiple lights mean big electric bills, and lamp replacement costs will grow. If you have the funds I suggest one light and a light mover. Remember light diminishes quickly. At the bulb a 400 watt light produces around 35,000-45,000 lumens. One foot away only a quarter of the lumens are available and for every additional foot away, only a quarter of the light is available. With the light mover you can keep the bulb closer to the plants with out burning them. That means more light for your energy dollar. Plus your light mover can be expanded to cover 4', 6' 9' or even 12' spans. Another addition to the light mover is the garden will be lighted evenly, meaning no shaded areas. Stationary lights throw light in the same spot day in and day out. An evenly lit plant always produces more and is healthier. |

Im an idiot an didnt realize you are talking about seedlings. Small plants should do fine under fluoro's. Just keep the lights 2-4 inches above the plants and you should do fine. |
Hi Maria! I came here to find some ideas for shelving with lights for some of my plants, and I followed your link to your photo album... Unbelievable! You have the most gorgeous Amaryllis collection! I'm in awe... The Worsleya is so unusual in its leaf habit... I didn't know they grew the leaves up near the top of the stem. And your other tropical plants are so healthy looking! You are quite the gardener! I am not worthy! LOL! About the lights... I bought 2, 21 inch fluorescent plant grow lights at Home Depot or Lowes... I can't remember which store, but one of those home builder stores... they are made by a company called Portfolio, that's the name on the box they came in. If I remember correctly, they were not very expensive, and I think they had other lengths available on the same shelf at the store. I plan to make a cheap shelving unit out of pvc pipe and use these wire grid pieces I already have as the shelves. The grid pieces are about 13 inches square, black, and were originally parts of a cheap clip-together shelf unit my son's girlfriend gave me. I would imagine she got it at Walmart or Meier's or a discount store like that. She didn't give me the clips, or whatever held these grids together, so I've had this stack of squares sitting here, and I knew that someday I'd find a use for them. Anyway... since you already have a nice countertop space, you could just go buy cheap grow light units like these and hang them above at any height you need. Just a thought... especially since these light bulbs are already meant for plant lighting, and they're not too expensive. I'm sure they're not top-of-the-line plant lights, but they'll do for over-wintering. Well... I'm off to finish looking at, and drooling over, your photo album! See you at the Amaryllis Forum! :-) |

You can easily fit four tubes in a 2' width, you can squeeze in more if you need to although you might need to make your own fittings. Depending on what you can find, eight foot fluorescent tubes would be a nice fit and they really put out a lot of light. Might be expensive or difficult to source, also a bit cumbersome to move about. Two sets of four foot tubes end to end would be nearly as good and much easier to find and deal with. Don't piddle about with two foot tubes, not worth it for a big space like yours For that sort of space it will often be more convenient to use a metal halide lamp since you would usually need something like 400W of light. But for seedlings, an array of fluorescent lights is good for evenly covering the whole area without burning the plants nearest the light. |
More gorgeous pictures... thanks for sharing, Maria! I wasn't thinking your countertop was that huge for some reason... larger lights would be best in your case. I don't have the room for something that large, although I'd probably make it fit if I had all the seedlings that you had! Catch you on the other forum! |
Personally, I would go with six shoplight fixtures. You have a space that is 20 square feet, but narrow, 2 feet wide, by 10 feet long. It is very difficult to achieve a uniform illumination over a space like this, especially is you have seedlings. If you would say, aim for 20 -30w/square foot, you would need 400 -600 watts. If you used a 400w HPS lamps, this would give 20 watts per square foot and 50,000 lumens, but the light distribution will be very uneven. Under the lamp, the seedlings will get bleached out, light will spill out across the width of the bench and be wasted, and the ends of the garden will not get enough light. 6 fluorescent fixtures x 2 lamps x 32 watts = 384 watts, just about right for seedlings. Lumens would be 37,200. If you tried to overdrive the fixtures to 54 watts per lamp, this would give 648 watts and about 60,000 lumens, which would be excellent for larger seedlings, but you probably don't need to do this for a medium light plant like hippeastrum. Overdriving would require the purchase of 6 more ballasts, which are cheap on e-bay. I would buy fixtures that have a curved reflector, like the Lithonia 1245, and if you have some metallized mylar, you can line the reflector for even better performance using 3m double sided tape, or consider buying 8 cheaper narrower Chinese shoplight fixtures. Having experience with HID myself, I would think you would run the risk of chlorosis (bleaching out your seedlings) if you illuminated with metal halide or HPS, and the illumination from fluorescents will be extremely even and work very well. If the light is not enough, then overdrive the fixture. Be sure to use high lumen output T8 lamps at 3000K, like TCP high lumen T8. |
I notice Lithonia has a decent looking shoplight for $11.36, with curved reflectors. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Lithonia shoplight.
I've been scouring the net for shoplights, and finally stumbled upon the best one, that I'm going to order for myself. It's called Cooper Lighting #9240 48" 2 Lamp Shop Light. They go for 11.60, they have a curved 6" reflector which is ideal. The only slight drawback is the ballast is for a T12, but that's not really a big deal, because you'll want to buy some decent quality T8 ballasts anyway if you want to give yourself the option of overdriving. 6 fixtures with shipping would be about $86, and 12 ballasts could be picked up for $65, and $30 for the T8 tubes, total of $180, and you will have a very nice and versatile setup. Install toggle switches to allow yourself the option of turning overdrive on or off, and line the reflectors with mylar, and that would be lighting heaven. Or you could just keep it stock, and save yourself a lot of money and hassle, and still get decent results. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Cooper Lighting Shoplight.
Actually, I looked at the Cooper Lighting website, and found out that the picture is wrong. That light has no reflector, so don't bother getting it. Cheaperlights.com has a nice Lithonia 1241CW that I would look into. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Lithonia 1241cw
Hi Object16! Thanks for those info and links. I kinda liked the first Lithonia. I think I might order that...soon!!! We are going down to high 40s tonight. Fall is just around the corner. The seedlings will have to be taken and grown inside ASAP. |
We've dropped to the mid 30's at night already! I am SO not ready for the cold weather! I have my lights, but I can't decide whether to wait for my husband to build shelving and mount the lights, or just hang them where I need them! The heat mat and mini table top greenhouse I ordered for seed and cutting starting arrived. At least I've got that ready! And I can't wait for the stores to get in their Amaryllis bulb kits for Christmas... I want to try some under the lights. |

What is the basic procedure to install a brass compression tee into an existing 3/4" copper water service line? |
Follow-Up Postings:
bg, It doesn't have to be a copper tee, but if it is what you bought so be it. Make sure that you have a male or female NPT on your outlet port. Cut a piece out of the copper main that is not wider than the width of your outlet port. slightly bend one side of the mainline and slide the end fitting and gasket on the one side all the way on, do not tighten. Slide the second end fitting and gasket on the opposite side. Then bend the pipe back in line with other side of the mainline and center the tee. Slide the gaskets and end pieces onto the tee and tighten down with a wrench. Screw a cap plug to the out let port of the tee and test for leakage. Tighten anything that leaks. When that past leak test. Unscrew cap or plug and install a threaded nipple if female or a threaded adapter if male. Then attach a ball valve to be able to shut off the entire irrigation system if there are repairs to be made later but most important you can turn back on your mainline to the house and continue working or your system at your convenience. I would do everything in PVC because it is easier and more convenient to work with. Make sure you pt concrete or something that can withstand thrust at all 90 degree bends. JMHO. Aloha |

FPMHNP - page 2
Just wondering if there are any psychiatric nurse practitioners here?... Read More
0Jul 2, '10 by Phoenix2010Have you been practicing as a FPMHNP for 2 and 1/2 years? What is your time regarding experience in nursing before your graduate degree? I graduated in May of 2007 and worked on my temporary license for 6 months, but then I had some fairly complicated "back problems" and could not work for a while. I have been teaching since then, because it is physically possible for me to perform in a teaching role. I still want to work as a FPMHNP, but I am having some difficult passing the certification exam. It seems that I am not the only one in this area with that difficulty (NE Texas and SW Arkansas). Has anyone taken the new exam , which began on March 1st of this year. One of my classmates did FNP and then went on to finish her FPMHNP. She passed her FNP certification, but was not successful with the psychiatric one. We need some advice or help! I have studied everything that is available, except for the new online practice test. Has anyone accessed that yet? Just need some friendly advice from someone who has been successful with this exam. I like teaching, but it just was not I worked so hard in graduate school to accomplish.Please help!!!

0Oct 17, '10 by KidPsycho82Hi, I took the child & adolescent CNS mental health exam and then took the family MHNP exam, passed them both. Have been working as a psych NP for about 5 years now. Prior to that, worked on an inpatient unit in several areas. Looking for the best state to start an independent practice in. Good luck in passing the exam!
0Feb 3, '11 by kangaroo2I'm glad I found this post - many of the PMHNP questions are going unanswered. I am currently trying to decide if I am going to apply to a direct entry PMHNP program, and I'm wondering if some of you could tell me about your experiences in the profession. I've done a lot of work in psychiatric research, and thought I would pursue psychiatry in some form, but I'm not sure I want to make the commitment to medical school. If any of you could answer a few questions for me about your career, I would really appreciate it!
-What is your day-to-day schedule like?
-How much autonomy do you have?
-What are the main differences between your job and a psychiatrist?
A little about me: I'm 25 and searching for the right career. I have always known that I belong in health care, and I'm fascinated by the mind and passionate about reducing stigmas of mental illness and addressing the shortage of mental health workers in rural and otherwise undeserved areas. I would like to be able to do international field work before I have children, and when I do have children I would like to work less than full time for a couple of years. I was recently accepted into medical school, but I'm not sure the 8 years of training and then the years of debt reduction will fit into the lifestyle I want. As I came across nurse-practitioners, I felt like maybe I hit the career lottery...I'm looking forward to your input!

This two bedroom historic home combines charming antiques with modern day comforts to provide a uniquely Montana experience. A few strides off Bozeman Avenue and two blocks from Main Street, this home is a heartbeat away from our vibrant downtown and all local attractions.
My family had a lovely time in Bozeman thanks to the gracious accomodations at this vacation rental. Everything was first class: the ease of making the reservation, the ease of checking in, the comfortable beds, linens and decor, the location in downtown Bozeman, everything. I hope to stay in this house every time that I'm in Bozeman. You will never want to stay in a chain hotel again after a night here.
Day or night, life is downtown. Besides shopping and dining, downtown Bozeman hosts festivals and celebrations throughout the year. We will be glad to advise you of all events that coincide with your visit. Off Main Street adventures await the outdoor enthusiast. In the winter, ice skating is just a couple blocks away, sledding hills and cross country trails are only a little further, and just down the street you can catch a ride to Bridger Bowl, choice of the Locals for downhill skiing. A one hour drive will get you to Big Sky Ski Resort, and just a little beyond, you will find the gates of Yellowstone National Park. Our local trails provide ample opportunity for hiking and biking while nearby streams offer floating and trout fishing, and our majestic mountains are an adventurist's paradise.

Hello Dr Tapla And Fig Friends,
I am intrigue as to whether by picking leaves & little figs off the main crop in Sept would in any way contribute some measure of success in helping the figs to ripen earlier. It seems logical that picking the leaves off to allow more sun light would help but last year my fig tree(even fully laden) never seem to benefit from it. Any comments most welcome. Goal is to have more ripe figs apart from using the greenhouse or oiling. Thanks. paully |

Hi, Paully. Fig inflorescences (fruit) are powerful energy sinks, so the plant directs current photosynthate (energy it's making today) as well as stored energy to fruit. Eliminating foliage would eliminate current photosynthate manufacture almost entirely, so you would almost be switching the tree over entirely to battery power (stored energy). This would be a decidedly bad decision from the perspective of energy management. In addition, the plant begins to change how it directs it's energy and stores a good portion of photosynthate produced after about Father's Day in preparation for the winters rest AND the spring push, so you can see that removing the trees photosynthesizing machinery (defoliating) and forcing the tree to call on its energy reserves just before it starts shutting down for the winter would leave the tree weakened and less robust in the spring. Removing developing fruit, however, frees up energy that the tree can direct to larger fruit. It also ensures that energy won't be wasted on fruits that you can't expect to ripen before cold sets in. The practice might help a little in ripening the more mature portion of the fruit crop, but since ripening depends primarily on photoperiod (day length - more specifically, the length of the dark period) and temperature, you shouldn't expect the influence it has to be too dramatic. It should help ensure the plant goes into winter at a higher energy level, so there is no reason to think the practice wouldn't have a somewhat positive impact on next years growth and fruiting, too. Al |
Puts to rest some of these issues on getting main crop to ripen in short seasons. Thanks Al. Paully |

Bubbling paint on my hood?
My 1972 Stingray (350 cid w/ 200 horses, not a big block) was painted back in the late 80's. It looks quite nice but the paint seems to be bubbling on my hood. I see the underside of the hood is painted black (which sucks up the heat) which cannot be helping. Has anyone else had this problem? I guess I am going to have to have the hood repainted, but how can I stop it next time (and still have it look stock)? Thanks.

Paint bubbles
I have the same Problem on my 1973 and my and 1976. My guess is the heat of the engine. On my 76 previous owner had cut the isulation back anf the bubbles are where the A.C. compressor is close to the hood. I replaced the Insulation and solved the problem. On the 1973 the bubble is close to opening in the insulation for the breather, so I haven't figured that out yet. I have also read where theory that oil works its way through the fiberglass and rasies the paint.
But if the under side is also painted I don't see this being vaild. hope this helps.

So do you have a layer of insulation (like the silver heat barrier insulation) on the underside of the hood? My car seems to only have black paint on the underside of its hood.
07-31-04, 03:00 PM #4Alan76Guest
You can Buy the pre-cut insulation from Corvette Central 1-800-345-4122
you should have 8 or so metal pins glued to the underside of the hood these
use metal retainers that hold the insulation in place these sholud be available
also If the pins are available at Corvette Central , Voluteer Vette in Knoxville Tenn Has them thata wher I got Mine 865 521 9100 they have the Insulation as well

The paint bubbles are usually caused by one of two things and I'll explain both.
1 - Moisture trapped under a cover - As the temperature fluctuates the water can heat up under a cover and vaporize and seep (for lack of a better term) under the paint. Once the car is uncovered the trapped moisture will heat up under the sun and start bubbling up as the air escapes, usually around lowpoints and body seams but this can occur anywhere. If your paint guy is really good it can be repaired, if he isn't absolutely certain he can fix it don't let him touch it because you can end up with a polka dot Vette. All covers claim to prevent this damage but even the best cover should be removed every couple months on a clear day just to air out the paint and seals. If you get a lot of rain or humidity, you should do it even more often.
2 - Oil/grease in the fiberglass - This is a problem unique to fiberglass cars. If your car was ever stripped and repainted or ever had any body work done, grease or oil may be trapped in the glass. This doesn't mean anyone spilled it but rather something as simple as a greasy fingerprint could have ben left on the car prior to painting. If the grease isn't removed immediately it will seep into the glass and the only solution is to cut out that section of glass and replace because there is no way to get the oil out. Even if you strip the glass and scrub it clean the oil is still there below the surface and will always seep. I've actually seen these oil bubbles in the pattern of a handprint around the back of a hood. I don't know the details but this is also common around the A/C unit. And as for the painted hood underside - oil can penetrate most paints over time.
The only way to know which it is is to cut a bubble out. I've never done this myself and would let a pro do it. If the bubble is only a couple of layers of paint, it's probably moisture vapor damage. If you see fiberglass it could be oil, you then have to test the surface. If it feels oily your through, if it doesn't, spray a mist on it and let sit for a minute to see if the oil bubbles out then feel it again. Oil damage can NOT be fixed without replacing fiberglass. If the bubbles are few, and you fix the cause you're probably best to leave them be and pray you don't get more.
Good Luck!- Eric

I dont know if this is relevant, but a friend of mine with a 64 vette also had tiny blisters/ almost looked like solvent pops in the hood paint right above the air conditioning compressor front seal, and he said it was a reaction to the freon caused by a slight leak in the front seal of the compressor.

- '67 Goodwood Green Coupe, '69 Lemans Blue Roadster
I posted about a year ago my problem with both of my Corvettes especially the '67. On both, but the '67 is much worse, I have tiny bubbles on the drivers side top front fender. On the '67, it extends to the cowl behind the hood. I got so annoyed with the looks of the bubbles on the '67, I sanded them off. An oily type substance oozes from the popped zit. This particular vehicle was in primer (in storage) from '76 to '89. I painted it in '89 with Acrylic Lacquer. It was put back on the road in '89. The bubbles appeared in about '00. One theory that I heard was since it was coming on the side of the Master Cylinder, that it could be vapors from the silicone brake fluid. I thought this strange since I thought the regular brake fluid was more caustic (it would remove paint if you spilled it) than silicone.

Joseph Brooks, the guy who wrote "You Light Up My Life" and won an Oscar for it, is facing 82 counts of rape-related charges against 11 different women since 2005. He lured these young gals into his apartment by dangling the fame carrot in front of them—he'd have them sit on his "casting couch" and tell them to drink a lot of wine, because the part they were auditioning for was a wine-swilling prostitute. If they refused he'd whip out his…Oscar. Eventually, this nasty dude allegedly attacked and raped them. Not surprisingly, he picked up most of his victims via Craigslist, with an ad that claimed an Oscar-winner was looking for someone he could turn into a star. [NY Post]
Geez, what's with all these guys using Craigslist for nefarious purposes? First, it was the Craigslist killer. Then there was that guy who posted on CL to find someone to rape his wife while he watched. Now this? Here are some tips for making sure you're not responding to some twisted guy's ad. Obviously, there are no guarantees. But, hey, it's a start. Keep reading »

What Lies Beneath...
The next look at the upcoming Talisman: The Dungeon expansion. |
Talisman | Published 03 April 2009 |
We don't know how much longer we must venture. The way has been hard, and we have lost two of our party so far. One fell in battle against a gargantuan beetle that broke through a wall and pulled him away before we could react. The other fell through the floor, a cunning trap door hidden from our eyes until too late. We press on, but I fear morale is low. We must find the fabled Treasure Room soon if we are to have enough strength to record what is held within. I pray there is a way to avoid the terrible Lord of Darkness...
The Dungeon provides an alternative to the Regions, but it is not without its own dangers. From the denizens housed within to the lures and booby traps designed to ensnare the adventurers, this path is not easy. At the end of the path lies the Treasure Room. This magical space will give you access to the Treasure deck. This deck of cards contains a number of awesome artifacts and magic objects. Included in this are the Cloak of Feathers, the Book of Lore, and the game changing Clockwork Owl.
Pressing on, we pass through many corridors and hallways, tunnels without light. Adversaries appear throughout, forcing us into desperate battles. We found a captive held within the cells beneath the earth, and our party did grow. We have seen the results of the former search party, bones moldering in the empty Torture Chamber. We have hidden to avoid the fearsome Bronze Dragon, and run past Living Statues. At last we enter a room with a giant circle inscribed on the floor. Entering the room causes a light blue glow to emanate from the circle. A low humming fills the chamber, and a horse with a mane of flame crackles into being in front of us! We draw swords, and begin to encircle it.
Be warned, the treasure has a fearsome guardian, the Lord of Darkness. This grim visaged foe has Craft and Strength to spare, easily doubling the strength of the mighty Troll! Even more, no follower may fight in your stead, you must face the Lord of Darkness on your own. The fight will be fierce, and only those who can best him by Strength or Craft will be able to claim a treasure. Even further, those who defeat the Lord of Darkness will be teleported out into the world. The mightier the champion, the closer to the Crown they emerge!
A massive oaken door stands before us. We have come far, and the way is now littered with the slain. Not all those who fell were our enemies, friends lay among them. Of the starting party only myself, our mage, and the Gladiator remain. I draw my sword, found among the debris in the tunnels behind us. The Gladiator wields an axe, our mage armed with scrolls and spells of wonder. We push open the door, and the sight awaiting us strikes us dumb. Gold and silver, weapons and artifacts too numerous to count. The hoard of treasure shuts down my brain, greed pulses through my body. That is, until the most terrible abomination in existence steps out of a recess in the wall. "You have found your way into my lair. Congratulations. Now you pay for the sight with your lives."
Do you possess the courage and cunning to descend into the Dungeon? Will you emerge rich and powerful, or will you emerge battered and broken? The final message from our expeditionary team will be revealed next week, along with the another piece of the dungeon.
For the first glimpse of the Dungeon, check out The Path Ahead.

Magpale has the highest net worth in the Provincial Board
-A A +AMonday, May 23, 2011
CEBU Provincial Board (PB) Member Agnes Magpale is the richest of all PB members with a net worth of P53.7 million, said her statement of assets, liabilities and net worth (SALN) released by the Office of the Ombudsman Visayas last week.
Magpale's riches come mostly from her personal and other properties which totaled P25 million. This is broken down into a bank accounts/cash on bank from proceeds of a sale of a house in Quezon City (P18 million); furniture, antiques, paintings, jewelry, books and appliances (P2 million); and time deposits (P2 million).
Magpale had no liability as of Dec. 31, 2010. Her business interests include Northeastern Cebu Colleges, Inc. in Danao City and the JDA Agro-Industrial and Development Corp.
Magpale listed four relatives in government, including cousin Ramonito Durano III, (Danao City vice mayor), brother Jose Rene Almendras, (Energy secretary), daughter Josefina Patricia Asirit, (Energy undersecretary) and son Miguel Antonio Magpale, (Danao City councilor).
Board Member Sun Shimura followed Magpale with a P23.4-million net worth.
Shimura, former mayor of Daanbantayan, Cebu, has P21 million in real properties. These were a beach lot in Malapascua Island with a current fair market value of P9 million and a residential lot in Pajo, Daanbantayan town valued at P12 million.
Shimura's lone personal property is a Nissan Patrol worth P2.4 million. He had no liability as of December 2010.
Board Member Thadeo Ouano ranked third, posting a net worth of P15.142 million. His real properties totaled P7,148,184, including a residential lot in Liloan town (P4.020 million) and five more lots in Mandaue City.
His personal and other properties totaled P11,003,269. These were cash on hand/bank (P2.126 million); Thad-Lind Ouano (P603,682); Time Republic Manpower (P998,494); Joly-Red Cebu, Inc. (P975,000); Joly Cybergate Corp. (P4. 4 million) and a Ford Expedition (P1.9 million).
Ouano's liabilities reached P3.009 million as of December 2010.
Board Member Alex Binghay ranked fourth, with P12.339 million. The former Balamban town mayor declared a total of P14,912,030 assets. These included a Chevrolet Captiva (P1.499 million), furniture (P120,000), appliances (P130,000) and a residential lot in Daas, Balamban (P863,650).
Board Member Peter John Calderon is fifth in the list of millionaire-legislators, with P12. 249 million net worth.
The bulk of Calderon's wealth came from his real properties totaling P6,980,042, including 18 lots in Banawa, Cebu City and Samboan (P5.714 million).

NRA staff and volunteers are always continuing their education, which sometimes means adding a new title to their list of credentials. For one group, this meant taking a Chief Range Safety Officer (CRSO) Course here at NRA Headquarters.
Three Competitive Shooting Division and one Education & Training Division staff members completed the training along with a Competitive Shooting Volunteer. Led by Training Department staffers Steve Hoback and Sean Thornton, the group used the eight hour course to focus on learning the role of a Chief Range Safety Officer, who teaches others to become Range Safety Officers (RSO). As new CRSOs, they will use their skills to teach RSOs to run ranges at various competitions and shooting events.
"This training is useful for anyone who is going to be supervising other Range Safety Officers, whether it's during a competition or while hosting an event at a local range," said NRA Air Gun Coordinator Jessi McClain. "We'll use this training to teach other staff and volunteers down the line."
The course uses both classroom lectures and practical exercises to make students comfortable and competent teachers, such as having students teach each other basic RSO functions such as showing others how to safely unload a firearm.
If you're interested in becoming a Range Safety Officer or Chief Range Safety Officer, check out the program's website. You'll not only be an asset to your range or club, but also to the shooters you supervise.

Tank Trouble
Tank Trouble game review
Tank trouble is every wannabe tank commander's dream. The game puts you behind the wheel of a massive, super-destructive tank, even if the models are small and cramped into an equally tiny maze.
While navigating all the dead ends and corners you will be trying to shoot at and hoping to avoid fire from another tank. The premise of this game is pretty easy to figure out; this is war and if you don't blow up the other guy, you will be destroyed. This means Tank Trouble is really simple compared to some other flash games like Tank Wars or Tank Commander.
You don't even need much experience to get into it, just a rudimentary knowledge of geometry so you can kind of guess how your shots will bounce. In this instance, playing Billiards or 2 Billiards 2 Play could actually make you better at another game.
With nearly 100,000 unique players on 2PG.com alone, Tank Trouble is a highly popular, free flash game. When hundreds or even thousands of other games don't quite manage to get 1,000 people to try them, this is a noteworthy feat.
Maybe it is the lack of any deep, involved story and the progression straight into tank battling action which makes Tank Trouble so much fun to play. There are only three different tanks, so you're either going to be playing red, blue or green. This is opposed to Bombit where 4 players are possible to choose from or Territory War which only supports up to 2 players.
As mentioned before, bullets fired will ricochet off walls to devastating effect. Be careful; while those bouncing shells can slug your opponent well, you might just destroy yourself if you aren't careful.
This is a straightforward and simple top-down tank simulator. Unlike other tank simulators, Tank Trouble lets you see the whole game all the time instead of showing you only the land and tanks directly in front of you.
This is something which really sets this free game apart from many which you must pay actual money to get, paid games which don't offer you as great a view of the entire battlefield. If you're okay with that, great; if you're like the rest of us, going with the better, free game is a pretty obvious choice. Games like Micro Tanks or Battle City Tank are also good, free alternatives.
The Game Mechanics
This is a good picture of 3 player gameplay going on in Tank Trouble. That's right; up to 3 people can simultaneously play this game, though if you go with this multiplayer option you must actually have 3 people.
Alternatively, you may play against a single, computer-controlled opponent at any time. As can be seen here, some of the level designs get pretty tricky with lots of boxed in "safe" corners and lots of wide open spaces in which players are sure to get killed. Until you learn how to best utilize these spaces, you should be prepared to get blown up over and over again.
The 2 Player option is best for practicing before you try taking on other people. World of Tanks and Too Many Tanks are similar enough that playing them would help you with this game too.
It isn't just tanks fighting tanks with bouncy bullets though. There are power-ups which add some flavor to the game and give the necessary, occasional change of pace needed to keep things interesting.
Each of the little bonuses is easy to see and the icons are clearly defined, so you know what you're picking up before you (or someone else) gets it. There is a chaingun mod which will significantly increase your rate of fire. There are rockets as well which fly in straight lines and explode on impact with a wall.
There is even a large, highly explosive and slow-moving cannonball for massive damage and blast radius. The variety of power-ups here really makes the game stand out from Tank in Action and Thanks Tanks.
Perhaps the fast pace of Tank Trouble is another reason why the game is so much fun. No round is going to last more than a minute or two and each time it's the same fun gameplay as last time. Even when a game ends, the next one doesn't take but a few short seconds to start. Then it's back to blowing each other up again for you and up to two friends.
Two people may play using the keyboard and standard movement keys but the third will need to use the mouse which promises jerky movement at best. Raging Steel and Tanks V2 can't give you that 3 player support.
If you're looking for battles and explosions like in Tank Commander or Tank Wars, Tank Trouble is a great fit for that unique niche. It has fast-paced action which most flash games promise but ultimately fail to deliver. It has three player support, something few other flash games can also boast.
Besides these two great points, the game is also absolutely free. If you're out of other ideas and you don't want to spend any money to game for an hour or two, Tank Trouble could be just the right kind of video game for you.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OverviewTremor in MK Special ForcesConsidered the "lost ninja" in Mortal Kombat history, Tremor was supposed to be in many Mortal Kombat games, going as far back as Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. He was even featured in the instruction manual for the game, where he is incorrectly depicted as an orange ninja with the same bio as Rain. Tremor finally got his moment in the spotlight as a member of Black Dragon and a boss fight in Mortal Kombat: Special Forces, which is generally considered the worst game in the franchise.Many rumors had persisted through the PS2/Xbox era of Mortal Kombat fighting games that Tremor would become a playable character. He was cut from the final mix every time. Tremor has since built a cult following of sorts among hardcore MK fans.Tremor appears once more during the bonus Challenge Tower missions that appear exclusively on the PlayStation Vita version of Mortal Kombat. Other characters in the missions appear shocked and comment that they believed his existence to be only a rumor. Tremor alludes to being locked in Goro's Lair for an extremely long time by Kano after failing to stop Jax in Special Forces.AbilitiesTremor in MK9 (Vita)In Special Forces, Tremor is able to create earthquakes by plunging his fist into the earth, which is similar in style to Jax's Ground Pound. He can also shoot a multi-directional fireball.In Mortal Kombat for PlayStation Vita, he continues to have his earthquake ability (Earth Pound) as well as Fire Blast projectile. Tremor has also learned a new projectile known as Earth Blast, which dazes his foes for a few moments. The brown ninja also utilizes an air grab backbreaker similar to his rival, Jax.

New American Standard (NAS) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, four chariots were coming forth from between the two mountains; and the mountains were bronze mountains. | 1 I looked up again--and there before me were four chariots coming out from between two mountains--mountains of bronze! |
2 With the first chariot were red horses, with the second chariot black horses, | 2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black, |
3 with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong dappled horses. | 3 the third white, and the fourth dappled--all of them powerful. |
4 Then I spoke and said to the angel who was speaking with me, "What are these, my lord ?" | 4 I asked the angel who was speaking to me, "What are these, my lord?" |
5 The angel replied to me, "These are the four spirits of heaven, going forth after standing before the Lord of all the earth, | 5 The angel answered me, "These are the four spirits of heaven, going out from standing in the presence of the Lord of the whole world. |
6 with one of which the black horses are going forth to the north country; and the white ones go forth after them, while the dappled ones go forth to the south country. | 6 The one with the black horses is going toward the north country, the one with the white horses toward the west, and the one with the dappled horses toward the south." |
7 "When the strong ones went out, they were eager to go to patrol the earth." And He said, "Go, patrol the earth." So they patrolled the earth. | 7 When the powerful horses went out, they were straining to go throughout the earth. And he said, "Go throughout the earth!" So they went throughout the earth. |
8 Then He cried out to me and spoke to me saying, "See, those who are going to the land of the north have appeased My wrath in the land of the north." | 8 Then he called to me, "Look, those going toward the north country have given my Spirit rest in the land of the north." |
9 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying, | 9 The word of the LORD came to me: |
10 "Take an offering from the exiles, from Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah; and you go the same day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have arrived from Babylon. | 10 "Take [silver and gold] from the exiles Heldai, Tobijah and Jedaiah, who have arrived from Babylon. Go the same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah. |
11 "Take silver and gold, make an ornate crown and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest. | 11 Take the silver and gold and make a crown, and set it on the head of the high priest, Joshua son of Jehozadak. |
12 "Then say to him, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Behold, a man whose name is Branch, for He will branch out from where He is; and He will build the temple of the LORD . | 12 Tell him this is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Here is the man whose name is the Branch, and he will branch out from his place and build the temple of the LORD. |
13 "Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the LORD , and He who will bear the honor and sit and rule on His throne. Thus, He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two offices."' | 13 It is he who will build the temple of the LORD, and he will be clothed with majesty and will sit and rule on his throne. And he will be a priest on his throne. And there will be harmony between the two.' |
14 "Now the crown will become a reminder in the temple of the LORD to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah and Hen the son of Zephaniah. | 14 The crown will be given to Heldai, Tobijah, Jedaiah and Hen son of Zephaniah as a memorial in the temple of the LORD. |
15 "Those who are far off will come and build the temple of the LORD ." Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you. And it will take place if you completely obey the LORD your God. | 15 Those who are far away will come and help to build the temple of the LORD, and you will know that the LORD Almighty has sent me to you. This will happen if you diligently obey the LORD your God." |

A Crazy Smoking Policy
Posted: Jul 16, 2007 11:43am ET
I shot a leisurely 18 holes the other day with my brother-in-law. We took a cart, which makes it much easier to smoke cigars. The course was playing a bit slow, so I fired up a Punch Double Corona on the fifth tee box. It lasted until about the 13th or 14th hole, when I lit a La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Lancero.The cigars seemed to help my game, and I finished with a par. We had some time to kill and I still had half a smoke left, so we ambled up to the deck of the course's restaurant, called Quatro Pazzi, Italian for "four crazies."
A waitress came over and we ordered a pair of Sam Adams beers. I asked for an ashtray.
"You can't smoke here," he said, "because there are people eating."
Now I'm the last guy who wants to spoil someone's meal by blowing smoke in their face, but I was sitting outside, with nothing above my head except an umbrella. And this is a huge restaurant. There are two large dining rooms inside, plus a porch that seats more than 100 people.
"Where's the smoking section?" I asked.
I was told I could smoke a step off the patio, on the walkway leading to the restaurant. Which meant I couldn't smoke at all.
Instead of food, we stuck to the beer and made an early exit. And that's the last one I'm going to buy at that restaurant, unless they welcome my cigar.

Mike Masciarelli — July 17, 2007 12:49pm ET
This is OBSURED!!! This country has gone to the dogs in terms of legislation that restricts our most basic freedoms. If you are going to have a non-smoking section for non-smokers, to be fair there should be a smoking section as well!!! This must violate some kind of anti-segregation laws... Someone should take up a lawsuit! I'd be on board.

They should rename the restaurant to "Quattro Idioti" -- the Doormatt

Glolite Candles Add Romance to a Summer Night
Do you use candles in the summer? They are just lovely in the late evening glow, I think. So romantic and everyone looks better in the glow of candle light, right? Have you ever noticed how your skin just radiates when lit by a candle? Beautiful. I just stumbled on these candles that are utterly intriguing, if you like that glow. They are called GloLites and they glow from top to bottom when you light the wick.
How they do this I don't know. But it sounds cool. Like a candle and a night light combined, I guess.
I won't have the opportunity to try this out in person, so I don't know if they look like normal candles or if they look fake while they glow. I hear they are mesmerizing.
I can't think of many better ways to spend a summer evening then nuzzling up with my honey surrounded by a soft glow. Oh, the quiet alone time…just him and me…mmmm.
A little advice from my mom to you….the best arrangement for candles is in odd numbers and varied heights. When I was having a house warming party at my very first apartment (seems ages ago now) I was having trouble getting my place to look right. I had some candles out, but I was struggling with 4 candles and I couldn't get them to look just so.
Then mom came over to help me prepare (gotta love mom!) and she took a candle away, arranged the 3 remaining ones and they looked right. Who knew? Some women have that special touch when it comes to house decor.
If you are interested, you can pick these up at Partylite for your next romantic evening. They come in 3 sizes, 3"x4" which is $14.95, 3"x5" for $16.95, and 3"x6" for $18.95. Personally, I'd probably choose all 3 given Mom's advice. Their sea salt and driftwood scent sounds pretty great too!

There's a Secret to Sleeping Better at Night
If you want to sleep better each night, it's really pretty easy, just paint your bedroom walls blue.
That evidently is the secret to getting a better nights sleep according to a new sleep and mood study.
The study found that people with Blue walls in their bedrooms average the most sleep each night. Seven hours and 52 minutes to be exact. The color blue isn't just calming, it also triggers special receptors in our eyes that aid our body's natural sleep rhythms.
If you want to walk around the next day with big black bags under your eyes, paint your walls purple. Having purple walls in your bedroom will get you the worst nights sleep according to the study, at five hours and 56 minutes. Purple is a stimulating color that makes it tougher for your brain to shut down.
The color brown came in second-to-last, at six hours and 5 minutes of sleep. There's a good reason for that however, people with brown bedroom walls have the most sex.
In case you're wondering, people with red bedrooms have the least amount of extracurricular activities going on in the bedroom each night. Even though red is suppose to be a sexy color. Hmm?
Here are the top 10 bedroom colors, ranked from most sleep to the least sleep:
- Blue
- Yellow
- Green
- Silver
- Orange
- Red
- Gold
- Gray
- Brown
- Purple

Join Ted and the Colorado Field Ornithologists on a field trip before the talk at City Park! Details here: http://cobirds.org/CFO/SpecialEvents.aspx

Paul Davies and Energy
Name: Robert B. Status: student Age: 18 Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 2001-2002
What was the first particle, energy, or definition of zero energy. I have read a small section by Paul Davies on Zero energy and how the universe is made up of negative energy (the gravitational field) and the positive energy (matter) but what physical process started the divergence and how did energy divide into + and negative.
I am not very familiar with Davies "theories"; however, his ideas strike me as incompatible with conventional physics and cosmology. It has some of the traits of voodoo science. For example, that gravity consists of "negative energy" is not well defined. In what sense does this make sense? The more radical the theory, the more liability the proponents have to provide experimental evidence for it. I have not seen much experimental evidence. I am just not a true believer.
