GG Elite 12.75T Glove
great glove - great price - Highly recommend. The glove arrives in playable condition.
September 4, 2014
Its a pretty good glove except its already broken in alot when your get the glove, I have had my glove for a year and a half now and its super floppy and it feels like its really hard to control the glove in my opinion. But it still is a decent glove with a pretty deep pocket and a nice look.

Nice Glove
Nice glove but it needs conditioning before use, very stiff. The glove thumb has an internal strap that is tight and needs to be enlarged or stretched. If you don't take care of the thumb you will end up with a blister as I did.

My new glove is very nice
I like the way it is already "broken in" and fits well on my hand.
May 29, 2014
easy to break in
We bought my son this glove because after a full season his Nike glove was still stiff and hard even after we had steamed it to help break it in. My husband picked this one out and we had it steamed in the store and also bought the oiling kit after a week it's more broken in than his old Nike glove. Mt son loves it and says it's really comfortable

Good Glove
Nice leather, already broken in. Pretty close to top of the line glove with a fraction of the cost. I expect it to hold up for a long time.
May 20, 2014
Elite glove
I have skills but this glove helps me look like a pro. The glove is comfortable fit, feels like I have worn it for years.

Rawlings 12.75 gg elite outfielders mitt
Really nice glove! Didn't take a lot of breaking in, very durable, would recommend glove conditioner by nokona! Nice big pocket and web! If glove gets wet make sure to dry it off good by dabbing it and using conditioner or will put rain drop stains!

Rawlings 12.75" GG Elite Series Glove 2014
Best glove I've play the outfield with baseball/softball.
April 26, 2014
best I've used in 20 years!
My last glove was a RGB36 with Jose Canseco on it! 20 years later, its time to move on. This glove is Great? very good quality. Breaks in very quickly. I spent the extra $15 the have the glove steamed. With the steam, a little neatsfoot oil, and a few games of catch it was ready to help me coach little league. I would definitely recommend this glove!

I have an older Dial a Volt battery that, after charging, will occasionally start blinking a 5 - 2 pattern for a LONG time. It seems to still work OK but I wonder if it is approaching end of life. Any ideas / comments?
Davo, thanks for reaching out to us!
The DAV has protection built in to stop it from shorting out and that's what you're seeing. The 5 flashes means the short circuit protection has been tripped and the 2 flashes mean the DAV is trying to reset itself. I've seen this happen when charging a DAV with juice on the threads. Has it stopped flashing since posting this?
You also might want to try a different carto Davo sir.

Open the box and organize all parts before starting. Then follow the instructions in sequence . It took me two hours to I stall the product. Once complete I started my 2012 Suburban and there was an initial pop then the engine ran fine. I made sure everything was tightened and looked for any issues then took it out for a test drive. The sound of the engine was fantastic and the increased horse power was immediately felt. Be carefull you will want to excellerate a lot and use a lot more gas :)

"I have been making this on a regular basis, and had forgotten to give it a review. This dip is WONDERFUL! I have had to give out a few copies of it since I first started to bring it to get togethers. I added more provolone because we like it cheesy, but thats the only thing I changed."
"My hubby and I LOVED this dish! It was very easy to prepare, however I was befuddled when I came to the end and it didn't mention the mushrooms and when to re add them to the mix. I rightly assumed it was before the final 15 min simmer but I thought it should have been included in the directions:) A GREAT recipe Kitten. I also used shredded Locat..."
"Even the kids loved this meatloaf. Hubby had the leftovers the next day on a sandwich with swiss. I will make this one again."
"Worth the wait! This chicken was sooo juicy and flavorful. I prepred a 7 lb bird with this recipe and my family of four left only the wishbone in one sitting! After the first hour of cooking I went in for the first basting and there was none to speak of so I added just about a cup or so of chicken stock..it was perfect. At the end I was able to ..."
"Easy and delicious! My hubby went wild for this. He practically licked the bowl. I make this almost every week now as a side. Great recipe."
"Here it is! This is the recipe I use every football weekend. I omit the celery though. I would recommennd letting the hot sauce sit on the shredded chicken as long as an hour(in the fridge) to let the hot sauce seep into the chicken. I serve with sliced Baguette and celery sticks..I never come home with leftovers."
"I expected more. I really am a Paula fan but this dish, for the time it took to prepare it..wasn't worth the effort. I followed all directions and exact ingredients. I almost think it would have been better with a prepared jarred sauce."
"I "sixeled" this recipe for a football party and it was a hit. I am making it again tonight just for our family because my youngest said he didn't get any at the party! I added less celery and used JD BBq sauce. Thanks for a great recipe."

3D History: AV installation at the Historic Philadelphia Center, Part 2
Feb 22, 2011 10:27 AM, with Bennett Liles
And it's not all just inside the theater, I believe there's a Niles strip LED display around the outside of the theater as well that you can control.
Yes, yeah the Niles strip is actually an LED wall that is custom made for the Niles Creative Group company and there are some other content that are displayed on the exterior ring of the theater and it's controlled also from the same controller. It's not part of the show itself but you can easily go onto any touch panel and actually have an access of all the shows that are residing on a WATCHOUT system and you can simply pick one and play it continuously. What's interesting is that, again, if the owner wants to put new content on that ring it's just a matter of updating the content onto the WATCHOUT system and then automatically it will populate the list of new shows that are accessible from the control system. So again, there are no need to reprogramming it being on the control system. [Timestamp: 9:11]
And it doesn't sound like the system is that complex to operate. Did it require any training for the local operators? How did that go?
Well we had actually two different level of training—first one was for the very few people that are involved in technical stuff like this so we went through a lot of stuff and we mostly trained them on defining what was causing any problem because the big part of the training is not that much about explaining to the people how to deal with a problem, it's first of all how to really find it to be sure that the problem is coming from this part and not from another part. And again, because the control system is the first layer, if you don't really understand what the control system is doing it's really hard to actually know where the problem is. [Timestamp: 10:05]
OK so it's a diagnostics training situation for the operators.
Yes, yes so even though they're not going to do too much more on the control system itself they have to understand exactly how the control system is working and what kind of information it sends to the equipment at any time during the show and outside of the show. [Timestamp: 10:26]
So when was the big debut for the system and how did everything go?
Well it went pretty well actually. The real issue was that…we had no issue at the beginning so everything was just theory, "What would happen if this would fail?" and "What would happen if this was not going to work properly?" Which was kind of frustrating, I would say because usually when they are with our assistant there are some glitches here and here and when you find them it's the best way to show to the people on site what to do in case this happened. On that project we had absolutely no problem at all so it was hard to show them what would happen if there were some problems. [Timestamp: 11:13]
Well it sounds like you haven't had to make a whole lot of tweaks to the control system since then.
Not from the initial scope of work but then the owner and the operators getting more involved in the operation, they started to understand what they could do and some real part of this where content the mind at the beginning and so new ideas came up and in the next few weeks and couple of months we then made some modifications. Not really modification because it didn't work but modification because people realized that they could do a little bit more than what they envisioned at the beginning. [Timestamp: 11:55]
A few more bells and whistles they wanted on it.
OK well of course convincing production is a big part of this thing and all of that was produced by the Niles Creative Group?
Everything came from the Niles Creative Company. They had their own recording and shooting studios and primarily they are a video producer so they know everything about acting, musing, recording—all that kind of stuff. It's really their job. [Timestamp: 12:23]
Were there any issues to work out as far at the architecture on the set up of the exhibit?
I wasn't really involved in the architectural but I know that they had some issue there. The facility is a big hall in a building but the theater its self is a complete new building inside it and as you mentioned there are all those projector and beside the fact that they are noisy and they are producing a lot of heat, the other thing is they are weighing a lot so all the structure for the ceiling and everything has been kind of a nightmare at some point. [Timestamp: 13:03]
Right that would certainly be a big factor with the weight of all those big projectors up there.
And the ceiling for a projector is actually hanging with cables which was another issue because due to vibration then the projector would be moving a little bit and so of course the edge blending between the eight of them was not good enough and we had to fight this by finding some other solution. [Timestamp: 13:3]
So what's coming up next for Smart Monkeys? That's a really intriguing name, how did you come up with the name Smart Monkeys?
It's just because when you do show control actually if you want to do it well you need to know a little bit about everything that you're controlling and in order to be efficient you need to be able to help people in their task so you're understand more about what they do and you're more efficient about what you do in terms of controlling their work. So usually on a project we're just like monkeys going back and forth here and there putting a hand on this stuff and everything and when we were looking for a name we definitely didn't want to have a very conventional AV company name so we just came up with Smart Monkeys which is fine because people remember it. The only thing is we must not screw up because of the name, we would be devastated. [Timestamp: 14:26]
Well you can certainly remember the name and it's interesting enough that I'm sure when people hear it they want to know a little more about what you do. So have you got some projects coming up or anything else you've been working on?
Well we have lots and lots of projects. Because of the evolution of both show control and our company we are more and more involved in designs and engineering—a lot more than just programming at the end of a show which is a very good thing. The down side is we are under a non-disclosure agreement for most of them. We just finished the Cosmopolitan lobby video wall which is really interesting and we're going to work on some theme park projects here and abroad. [Timestamp: 15:11]
Well it's been fun having you here Stephan Villet from show control company Smart Monkeys in Miami Beach. It's a very interesting show at the Liberty 360 in Philadelphia and thanks very much for taking time out to tell us about it.
Well thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to discuss about this project and show control in general. Thank you very much.

Through strategic activities with builder associations, code officials, the ENERGY STAR® program and Met-Ed, Penelec, Penn Power, and West Penn Power, FirstEnergy's Pennsylvania utilities (FirstEnergy), participating contractors will have access to marketing, incentives and educational materials that facilitate the construction of energy efficient homes. To qualify for incentives, homes will meet rigorous third-party verification standards for energy efficiency, providing the following advantages to homebuyers and their families:
- Increased Comfort
- Enhanced Energy Performance and Savings
- Increased Marketability
Remodeling a home?
If you're doing a gut rehab (opening up all interior walls down to the studs), your project may qualify for FirstEnergy's new homes incentives. If you're doing an addition or remodeling part of your home, your project may qualify for one of FirstEnergy's existing home incentives.
Met-Ed, Penelec, Penn Power, and West Penn Power offer incentives to builders of energy efficient homes in the companies' Pennsylvania service territories.

It's finally out! Spinners have been teased by several prospective publication dates for Sarah Anderson's The Spinner's Book of Yarn Designs, but now it's finally available.
It's a fantastic book, here's my review from Deep Fall Knitty (I told you the publisher has been teasing us for a while):
This is the spinning book every spinner will rush out and buy this fall. This book doesn't teach you to spin it — teaches you the potential of your spinning.
Sarah Anderson guides spinners through the making of 80 different yarns, each building on the techniques of the yarn before it. The writing style is concise and at the same time thorough and inspiring – I wanted to spin every single yarn I read about the second I finished reading.
Beyond the making of yarns, Sarah reminds spinners of the basics: twist and balance, woolen vs. worsted, washing fleece and an excellent section on fiber prep carding (hand and drum) and combing. Throughout the book, she talks about a sock knitting experiment she carried out while writing this book – what yarn structure is the best for socks? You'll have to read it to find out. There are tips scattered through the book that focus on tricky bits of some of the yarn structures and invaluable tips for knitting with different types of yarns.
The book is filled with photographs, more than I think I've seen in any other spinning book – excellent process photos, beautiful project photos and lots of inspirational photos. It's wonderful to see a book take the space to satiate visual learners.
This isn't a book for the most beginning of spinners, but it could be a second spinning book. There is little discussion of how different breeds affect the yarn spun, but that's a book in itself.
The joy in this book is the instruction of 80 yarns spinners now have at their fingertips. What the Barbara Walker's Treasury of Knitting pattern books are to knitters, The Spinner's Book of Yarn Designs will be to spinners.
Here are some sexy spinning photos from the book. All Photography by John Polak:
Doesn't it make you want to hide away with your spinning wheel and a big pile of fiber until you've tried all 80 yarns?
I have a copy to give away! Regular contest rules: leave a comment on this post between now and midnight eastern time, Thursday January 31st. One comment will be chosen at random to answer a skill testing question. If the commenter answers correctly they will win our prize.
Good luck and happy spinning!

You should not assume that an escrow service is definitely risk-free. If the vendor is attempting to convince you to utilize a particular escrow company to handle a transaction, be suspicious because it might be part of a fradulent deal. Verify a firm's authenticity by checking with state regulators, or try to ask to employ a well-known escrow company of your choice. If you're not sure about the item you are planning to buy, especially consumer electronics, reading unbiased gadget evaluations of that product will turn out to be beneficial.

You can now report sexual assault online & anonymously to NSW Police on their website
WELCOME to the online home of NAUWU!
This campaign website was initiated by a dedicated group of New South Wales (NSW) sex workers in October 2009.
Our campaign is designed to address the emerging issues related to the NSW sex industry, especially the lack of consultation at all levels of government, with sex workers and peer sex worker organisations.
Sex workers must be consulted and be included in EVERY meeting, panel, taskforce and roundtable that is formed to discuss the sex industry. No implementation policy, procedure, legal reform or directive should occur without detailed and in depth consultation with sex workers at all stages.
Things are changing without sex workers being involved
Things are changing without sex workers knowing what's happening
Sex workers are the experts on sex work so must be consulted
Sex workers must not be left in the dark….
NOTE: the term Nothing About Us Without Us has been utlisied around the world in numerous forums, community groups, campaigns, organisations and movements. This includes such sectors as: the disability rights movement (1, 2, 3), youth-led health promotion initiatives (4), mental health (5), drug users (6, 7), sex workers (8, 9, 10), The Institute for Inclusive Security (which includes The Women Waging Peace Network) (11), and even Anglicare Tasmania (12)
The rationale for using this common mantra is the need for INCLUSIVENESS.
As the definition held within Wikipedia states "Nothing About Us Without Us! is… used to communicate the idea that no policy should be decided by an essay writers from writing services; representative without the full and direct participation of members of the group(s) affected by that policy. This involves ethic, ability-based or other groups that are often thought to be marginalised from political, social and economic opportunities" (13).

As you already know, the transition from military to civilian can be a huge step. A new way of eating, drinking, sleeping and thinking. On top of all those issues is the fact that people speak a different language – or don't understand what you are talking about – "military-eeze." Even the way you tell time is different – is this the same world that you grew up in? Maybe not anymore. But there are some things that you can do to help smooth out some of the bumps in that transitional road.
Check out this interesting article on transitioning from military to civilian life in the job market. Great tips and advice – worth reading.

Published September 27, 1988
I feel compelled to respond to the over-technical and antiquated characterization of homosexuality that Denver H. Dash expressed in the September 20 issue of The Observer.
Mr. Dash asserted that his letter intended to "examine and classify homosexuality in a logical manner, in an effort to define what our attitudes toward it should be." However, I would no more adopt his attitude toward homosexuality than I would hurl myself in front of a speeding RTA bus.
The most disturbing part of Mr. Dash's "analysis" is that "homosexuality should be thought of as a disorder, and like all disorders we should do our best to treat it." Mr. Dash has failed to realize that after years of unsuccessfully trying to "cure" homosexuality, the psychiatric community has finally removed it from the list of mental disorders. If an entire group of experts no longer believes that homosexuality is a disorder, who is Mr. Dash to tell anyone that it is?
Furthermore, I object to Mr. Dash's blanket conclusion that homosexuality "is not normal, and therefore should not be treated as normal." He supposedly is "analyzing" homosexuality, yet he concludes with an obvious value judgment. "Normal" is an inherently subjective word; what is normal to one person is not necessarily normal to another. It is normal to a homosexual to be attracted to members of the same sex. We cannot, as Mr. Dash suggests, limit our definition of "normal" to the desire or ability to procreate, as we then risk labeling as abnormal all heterosexuals who do so. Should medical science find a "cure" for them as well? Homosexuality has a long history in the human race and in the animal kingdom, and is not likely to disappear or be "cured." We all need to accept that reality, and accept those who have not been previously accepted. As for Mr. Dash, I wish he had made an effort to adequately research his topic before he subjected the readers of this newspaper to his uninformed opinions.
Scott R. Miller, School of Law
Published September 27, 1988
As I was reading the September 20th issue of The Observer, I came across Denver Dash's letter to the editor and was deeply saddened. I am a student of medicine here at CWRU. I am taught to examine disease not as a collection of signs and symptoms, lab results and physical findings, but as part of the whole picture centered around the patient. To try to extrapolate the whole picture from one fact-one test result-is ludicrous and dangerous. Yet this is how Mr. Dash has attempted to explain homosexuality, by extrapolating from one fact. Alas, even this fact is narrow minded. Mr. Dash claims that homosexuals are "defective" because they cannot procreate. Does this definition also hold true for women who never want to bear children, or men who never cared to sire a child? Does this definition also hold true for heterosexual couples who chose to use birth control? Does all sex have to occur for the sole purpose of procreation? The answer to all of these questions is an emphatic "No!" In fact, I submit to you that homosexuals can further the process of the human race. The raising of adopted children is a common way for sterile heterosexual couples to "have" children; why can't homosexuals "have" children in the same way? Wouldn't a lesbian be giving birth to a child if she were artificially inseminated? It is not hard to see that Mr. Dash does not understand the issues about which he is writing. The issue is not about scientific facts or procreation. The issue of homosexuality is about love and lust, caring and understanding, friendship and romance. Homosexuality is about boyfriends and girlfriends just like any heterosexual relationship, and until you can understand that fact, you cannot profess to know anything about homosexuality. Eli M. Lourie, Medical School

Thx for sharing this !
Infographics are everywhere. Some love them. Some hate them. But however you feel, it's fun to learn a little bit in a short period of time. Most are made so you can quickly grasp the key concepts behind them. That's a key thing to keep in mind if you want to make your own infographics. Lucky for you, there are a pantload of free and freemium tools out there to help you out. Some are more robust than others but many are easy enough to try out. That's what Edudemic is all about after all – sharing useful resources that you try out and use to enhance your life.
Before we dive into the list, let's talk about WHY you might want to make an infographic:
1) you run a blog or website that you want to display visually-engaging information and grab the attention of your readers.
2) you want to grab the attention of students by boiling down theories and content into key concepts that can inspire more in-depth learning.
3) you're a student who wants to show off your understanding of concepts by analyzing, digesting, and then remixing it all into an elegant infographic. Teachers will love this and your fellow students will thank you for the sort-of cheat sheet!
4) you're a teacher who wants to get students engaged and doing new projects. Instead of a book report, have students try making their own infographics about their book or other topic. Present them with this list of useful tools or try some out yourself and then use just one of the tools. Whichever route you choose, this list should help you get started with having students creating some visually stunning new ways to present information!
These tools are just the beginning. I have a few recommendations that I could make – you can see those over at my course on Modern Lessons – but, off the cuff, I'd recommend Easel.ly, Visual.ly, and Piktochart. All three of those tools are easy to use, free, and quite flexible. Great for newbies or experts alike.

The following areas will be covered: establishing credit for the first time, credit building techniques, accessing low-interest loans, getting free credit reports, budgeting techniques to reduce debt and increase savings, repairing damaged credit and securing insurance coverage on loans.
The St. Croix workshop is set for 10 a.m. to noon at the SBDC office in Sunshine Mall. On St. Thomas, the workshop will be held from 10 a.m. to noon at the VIUCEDD office, room 114 in the Teacher Education Building on UVI's St. Thomas campus.

Custom License Plate Initiative Allows UVI Community to Show Support
Students, faculty, staff and alumni of the University of the Virgin Islands have an opportunity to express their loyalty to UVI with the introduction of the UVI Buccaneer License Plate Program, an initiative that allows Virgin Islands vehicle owners to display customized University of the Virgin Islands license plates. Funds raised by the program will support the UVI Athletic Scholarship Fund.
"This is an excellent way to show support for UVI while at the same time benefiting the UVI Athletic Scholarship Fund," UVI Athletic Director Peter Sauer said. "The license plates provide another way to promote UVI in our community." A news release is available from the UVI web site - www.uvi.edu - and from this direct link.
Access to Employee Information Eliminates Printing of Direct Deposit Pay Stubs
In an effort to improve employee access to personnel data, Self-Service Banner (BanWeb) functionalities are continually being enhanced. Employees now have access http://banweb.uvi.edu - to view their leave balances, job details and history from initial hiring, W2 forms, benefits information and pay information from their first up to the most recent pay period.
For this reason, pay stubs for persons receiving direct deposit no longer require printing. This information can be viewed and/or printed from BanWeb using any web browser, from anywhere in the world. Therefore, effective February 2009, direct deposit pay stubs will not be printed.
For complete information on how to access BanWeb's Self-Service section, see the UVI Announcements on the "Inside UVI" section of the UVI web site - www.uvi.edu.

The Hanover Sheriff's Office warns local businesses that deal with landscaping equipment or large truck tires to be on the lookout for suspicious activity following a series of larcenies from businesses in surrounding localities.
Hanover officials warn that the trend could spill over county lines.
"This has happened here in Hanover County in the past. There is a high likelihood they will hit Hanover County in the next couple of weeks based on the trends from years past," said Deputy Jim McLaughlin, crime prevention specialist.
Suspects typically strike between 10 p.m. and 3 a.m., McLaughlin said, and there is a good chance the drop-off vehicle will have Maryland tags, however they normally steal a pick-up truck from a nearby business. The suspects generally use a trailer to haul away stolen merchandise.
The Hanover Sheriff's Office urges local businesses to use the following crime prevention tips:
• Keep the doors locked when not in use;
• Confirm all lights on and around your buildings and storage areas are working correctly and illuminating what you want them to;
• Keeping all foliage trimmed and away from the building reduces the opportunity for cover or concealment for a criminal;
• Confirm the locking system on your storage areas consist of high security locks;
• Make sure your key control procedures are enforced;
• Consider adding a timer to an interior light so it will be perceived that someone is in your business;
• Confirm your alarm is covering what you need it to cover in and around your business if it isn't already and make sure it is armed when not in use;
• Confirm that signs for your alarm system are up and in conspicuous locations for all to see as well as signs for your surveillance system, if you have one;
• Take a walk around your property to make sure you are not providing any opportunities for a would-be criminal;
• Check any and all access points from the roof to confirm they are secure and/or locked;
• Ask employees and customers to report any suspicious activity to the Sheriff's Office immediately.
Contact the Sheriff's Office concerning suspicious activity immediately by either calling 911 or (804) 365-6140. If you have security concerns or questions, please contact the Sheriff's Office Crime Prevention Unit at (804) 365-6110.

Attorneys grill judge over plan to move Lake County court
By Michael Gonzalez Post-Tribune correspondent March 8, 2013 7:00PM
Updated: April 10, 2013 6:10AM
CROWN POINT — Retiring Lake County Juvenile Court Judge Mary Beth Bonaventura shed her robe and sat on the witness stand Friday, spending nearly three hours in Lake Circuit Court defending her decision to move the IV-D court from Gary to the Juvenile Justice Complex here in February.
The hearing will resume Monday afternoon.
Four lawyers, representing Gary, East Chicago, the Lake County Board of Commissioners and the NAACP, filed a temporary restraining order Feb. 1, three days before the move, to keep Bonaventura and Lake Superior Court Judge John Pera from moving the IV-D court, which handles child support and other matters relating to paternity.
One attorney, Bessie Davis, representing Gary, said the plaintiffs are trying to protect the community.
"We don't want to hurt (Bonaventura), we want to protect the people," Davis said after the hearing. "Many of the citizens of north county don't have access (to courts in Crown Point), nor transportation, nor access to transportation."
Bonaventura, who is being represented by the Indiana Attorney General's Civil Division, said she decided to move the court because of the logistical and personnel problems arising from hearing the cases in separate courts.
The judge said litigants' cases were being delayed by continuances because hearing officers were not always available to hear them or other staff members were unavailable to work the cases.
"Did you consider the harm to people and litigants of Gary, East Chicago, Hammond, Whiting and Lake Station?" Davis asked Bonaventura midway through the hearing.
"No, I did not," the judge responded, her comments cut short by Davis.
Bonaventura later added, "The harm is to the litigants who won't have their cases heard if I don't have a hearing officer to send to Gary."
Bonaventura said the juvenile division's clerk's office sent notices to litigants of the move before it happened. Moving the court back to Gary would virtually "shut the court down" with trying to reach litigants and reschedule hearings.
Bonaventura also said budgetary woes forced her to cut 17 employees over the last three years, another reason to consolidate the largely federally funded IV-D courts in Crown Point.
Attorneys Eric Oden Clark and Macarthur Drake are representing private litigants suing Bonaventura and Lake Superior Court Chief Judge John Pera in the case, while Barbara Bolling is representing Gary and East Chicago.

The album pallets lead directly to Corrigan's paintings and works on paper because some are based on the cover art, another lost form taken out as collateral damage by the digital conversion. Corrigan is obviously influenced by Warhol, and these compositions have a decidedly neo-pop art look with their photo-based images and their repetition. Some, like "Getting Rid of the Beatles" and "Also on Cassette," are very Warholian, while others, like the tremendous "RSO" and the fabulous "Some Girls," combine Warhol's cool pop feel with a hot, graffiti-like expressionism in which images and painterly gestures are crammed into the picture planes. I thought many of the paintings were incredibly good.
One element of High Bias that's impossible to miss is the 1970s red Jaguar convertible parked beneath "RSO" and in front of a wall built from old box speakers. The speakers and the car, with an electric guitar propped up behind the passenger seat, are summoned up by Corrigan as further evidence of a lost past — or would that be a paradise lost? The speakers, called "All Bangs," are hooked up, and interviews with the late Lester Bangs (hence the title) are being broadcast. There are also a couple of videos on monitors at the front and the back of the show.
Around the other side of "All Bangs" are more paintings and two substantial installations done with collaborators Paul E. Garcia, Tyler Jessen and Gabe Walford. "I'm With the Band" is a facsimile of a stage covered with instruments that's actually been used for performances during the course of the show, and "Bacharach Bacchanalia" is a shabby version of a green room, complete with a ratty old couch and a wall of old-fashioned portable TVs.
High Bias is delightfully over-the-top, and Corrigan has obviously spent a lot of time and effort thinking about the topic.

List of ALL sarah moncada poems
Best Sarah Moncada Poems
I'm not good for you. Broken and unworthy. You keep me around and I cannot figure out why. You are so amazing, so lively, and so different than I. I want to be loved by you. I want to hold you. But I see you there so happy and so care free... It will just hurt you to know the person hidden within. The real me. Not the smiles you see when we speak. Not the laughter we share... But me. A lonely child, with fear in her eyes. Scared of the world she was born into and scared of the future she might have if she loses you. Do you still want me, knowing the little I have said so far? I close my eyes wishing you were here... But we all know that is a wish that will never come true... And it is okay... It is nothing new. To me at least it is something I feel each day. Wanting what is not in reach... Wanting for you to be with me.

Voted Connecticut's Scariest Haunted House by the Norwich Bulletin, The Dark Manor fills visitors with terror and keeps hearts pounding throughout two floors of haunted rooms, a spooky cemetery, and a haunted village. Thrill seekers stalk through chambers teeming with haunting sights, shrieking at decrepit skeletons in electric chairs and hordes of giant, wall-clinging cockroaches. After surviving the manor's mind-bending set pieces and horrifyingly neglectful housekeeping, adventurers must wander through the cemetery and village. Amid the graveyard's tombstones roams a chainsaw-wielding freak offering free haircuts, and the denizens of the haunted village lurk amid shadows as masked horrors seek to startle the souls out of passersby.
Before they set foot on Zombie Charge's 5K obstacle course, participants have a choice: remain human or join the undead. Hordes of ghouls chase runners navigating 8?12 challenges?such as climbing walls and tunnels?set up throughout woodland trails, open fields, and muddy swamps. Those crossing the finish line with at least one belt flag still attached are counted among the 5K's survivors; handlers stand by with antidotes for less fortunate racers. Afterward, a Survival Party lets participants unwind with games of tug of war and corn hole, live music, or photo ops with some of the event's undead.
The taut canvas sinks under the weight of two sock-clad feet, stretching its coiled spring fasteners to their limit before rebounding and jettisoning the acrobat skyward. High-flying stunts abound at The Trampoline Place, where 10 competition-style trampolines let gymnasts and fun seekers attempt new airborne flips, spins, and toe touches. The gym boasts safety harnesses and pads to provide a safety net for those trying out new techniques, and the USA Gymnastics–certified staff offers lessons for those trying to bolster their trampoline skills.
At Aerial Arts Fitness, Katie guides students through pole-fitness classes. In a 1,400-square-foot studio outfitted with six poles, Katie demonstrates how to sensually burn calories during pole-fitness classes that focus on building strength, boosting flexibility, and having fun.
The moment you walk in the door you know you have made the right choice. Charleen's Portrait Studio prides themselves on making you feel right at home and will work with you to create a beautiful portrait for you during your special occasion or milestone. Come in relax and let us help you creative a one of kind portrait.

Uber, the insanely popular ride requesting service that my hometown of Portland hates (personal problem), released an API this morning that allows partners to build-in Uber support to their apps and services. Through this API, apps can now "pass a destination address to the Uber app, display pickup times, provide fare estimates, access trip history and more."
What does that mean? Well, it could be that you book a car to pick you up just after you book your restaurant reservation for tonight. Or maybe you need a ride to and from the airport, which you could book through you favorite airline's app? (more…)
