Luhrmann's much-anticipated adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great
Gatsby premieres today in theaters across the country. The story is
set in the gin-soaked twenties, in the midst of Prohibition, and F. Scott
Fitzgerald was known to be quite the tippler himself. Want to drink like
Gatsby? Look toward these six classic cocktails.

infinitely balanced and approachable, the Sidecar has rightly become one of the
most popular classic cocktails of the past century.
to assemble but hard to forget, this Prohibition-era classic has found its way
into a new generation of cocktail glasses thanks in part to Seattle-based
bartender Murray Stenson, who helped re-popularize the drink.

classic fizz was traditionally served without ice, but adding several large
cubes or a long spear of ice makes for a fine slow-sipper. For extra,
Gatsby-esque decadence, substitute chilled dry Champagne for the club soda to
make a minty French 75.
its origins are murky, there's no question that this drink was wildly popular
in the 1920s, and because it is gin-based, F. Scott Fitzgerald would surely
have sipped his fair share of them.
historian David Wondrich describes the Bloody Mary, originally created in the
1920s by Pete Petiot at Harry's Bar in Paris, as "second only to the Martini in
the world of WASP drinking". We're pretty sure that Daisy, Nick and their
hard-partying cohorts would have started many a day with a tall Bloody

Bob Shaw is one lucky fellow. After rearing a family, running a thriving steering-wheel business, and conquering some setbacks to his health, Shaw focused his energy on that universal aspiration - constructing the car of his dreams.
The Excalibur RS (Robert Shaw) he loaned to us for a few memorable hours is the fourth jewel in this enthusiast's crown. After rebuilding two Bugatti roadsters (Types 38 and 59), Shaw commissioned a scratch-built homage to the 1958 Ferrari Testa Rossa. The Excalibur is a tribute of a different caliber. Shaw was a close ally of the noted industrial designer Brooks Stevens and campaigned two of Stevens's creations in vintage racing. The Excalibur RS is an appropriately modernized version of the Hawk sports roadster that Stevens designed in 1959 and developed to the scale-model stage (currently in Shaw's possession).
Stevens was a prolific designer who gave society the steam iron, pastel hues for kitchen appliances, the wide-mouth peanut-butter jar, and the expression "planned obsolescence." He also designed the Willys Jeepster, the Studebaker Gran Turismo Hawk, and one of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobiles.
Two contemporary designers - Ford retiree Herb Grasse and Dave Draper of Time Machines Unlimited - collaborated with Shaw to trim the Hawk's towering tail fins and to incorporate modern touches from Bugatti (exhaust treatment), the Ford GT40 (front end), and the Lamborghini Murciélago (scissor-hinged doors). Chuck Rahn, a crack fabricator, constructed the chassis, which has a steel-tube spaceframe, a control-arm front suspension, power rack-and-pinion steering, and a Halibrand rear axle. The classic Borrani wire wheels wear low-profile BFGoodrich radial tires. The finishing touch is an official Excalibur vehicle identification plate.
From start to completion three years ago, Shaw invested ten years and way too much money into this project. Constructing the chassis consumed a year; designing and building the formed-aluminum body took more than three. The interior consists of fiberglass moldings trimmed in leather and engine-turned aluminum panels. The doors, hood, and deck lid all open and close at the touch of a button.
The Excalibur RS's 5.7-liter General Motors V-8 crate engine is equipped with Edelbrock throttle-body fuel injection, tubular headers, and custom valve covers manufactured by Shaw's craftsmen. Honoring Stevens's traditional red, white, and blue livery, Shaw selected Mercedes-Benz mystic blue metallic paint, which he spotted in a London dealer's showroom, and paired it with pearl-white and brilliant-red accent colors.

Identify date of invention
You don't actually need your date of invention to file an application. That date will be very important if you are ever involved in litigation, so you may as well figure it out now - or at least narrow it down to a range of dates. Save receipts for materials you purchased to make any prototypes. You do not need a working (or even a non-working) prototype in order to file a patent application.
Make notes for patent attorney about making and using the invention
The application will need to describe to the USPTO (Patent and Trademark Office) how to make and use the invention. The application needs to enable a person of skill in your field to make and use your invention. There may be more than one way to make and use your invention. If so, elaborate on those.
Make notes for patent attorney about best mode of using the invention
There may be particular aspects of the invention that you know about and are not easy to figure out. For example, the invention may work better at certain temperatures, when positioned at certain angles, if made of certain materials, etc. Care needs to be taken to discuss these with the patent attorney so they may be included in the application for patent.
Decide on utility application vs provisional application
A provisional application for patent is particularly useful if you need or want time - time to tweak or improve the invention, arrange for marketing, arrange for distribution, arrange for manufacturing, raise capital, attract investors, etc. Discuss the type of patent application you should file with your patent attorney.
Keep everything secret until you file the proper application
Selling, or even offering to sell, the invention call cause you to lose your rights to get a patent. So can disclosing the invention or even using it. Better safe than sorry here.
Identify other possible inventors
Not every person that helped with the invention is necessarily an inventor. If somebody just supplied materials or followed your directions, they are likely not inventors. Make a list of every person that helped with the invention or that might think they are an inventor and give the list to your patent attorney. Intentionally leaving off an inventor can lead to the patent being declared invalid.
Make some drawings
Just about all patent applications require drawings for the USPTO to understand the invention. You can have them done professionally before filing if you want them to look good. There are specific drawing rules about how thick the lines in the drawings should be, how shading should look for curved surfaces (and a bunch more) so either learn those rules, or have the patent attorney suggest a draftsman prepare the final drawings.

Some kind of a hair spray in your pocket or bear spray might be good to have especially anyone in a parking lot leaving their car at night also. Don't risk walking anywhere alone though.

Woah, check out the big brain on Kent. What else do you know about this person whom you've never met, Kent, or do you just go around psychoanalyzing complete strangers for kicks? Talk about feeling inadequate, not to mention insecure, grandiose and pretentious. I believe Jess was expressing her opinion which, is my understanding, is the point of these discussion boards. No need to jump down someone's throat to make yourself feel better, or adequate.

I WILL continue to walk at night. My precautions will include shoes to protect my feet from broken glass and gloves to protect my hands from frostbite. What other precautions did you have in mind? You know what makes me have a risk of being sexually assaulted? A vagina. This I have had since I was born. I cover that with pants AND underwear so I'm not sure what else I can do. A year after I was born I learned to walk and like most toddlers I was excited! I will continue to enjoy walking for as long as I have a vagina.

Why has there not been a sketch of the suspect released? Seems like it would be helpful. Surely someone got a good look at this guy. Yet, there still seems to be a lot the police aren't saying about these cases; surely it can't be because it will jeopardize the investigation or future charges. Was the suspect armed? Known to the victims? How does a woman walk away with a suspect? Was it knowingly or against her will? The public has a right to know these things.

call it for what it is: "RAPE". Calling it "sexual assault" seems to provide no justice to the victims. Rape is a much harsher word for a harsh act.
- That they will
- December 10, 2012 - 16:30
They have more man/woman power now than they did in the 70's. They'll get him. This place is not that big. Hopefully a better description will be provided to the public. And yes, if you're attacked, fight like a savage and get away quick and get help. It's better for him to turn himself in than wait for them to come get him and they will. That they will.

I always find comments like Kent's a little odd... you're blaming people being offended on their own inadequacy, yet you yourself appear to have been so offended by the contents of the comment you were replying to that you had to complain about it. Jess's comment hits the nail on the head -- if this man is caught, what will happen to him? A slap on the wrist. Look at the recent case of the young man who's had multiple convictions for sexually assaulting children, yet has only been given a few months of jail time. If we want to make the streets safe, we need harsher penalties for sexual predators, and we need to make sure that they are getting rehabilitation during their jail time. Otherwise, we're going to keep seeing these same people committing the same crimes over and over again, with the RNC giving its same bland, ineffective warning to women every time. If we want to prevent rape, we need to stop telling the victims what to do and start looking at what we can do to stop the rapists themselves.

I would caution any woman considering carrying a weapon to think twice. It may sound like a sensible precaution, but take a moment to think it through. Any man who will sexually assault a woman will certainly have no compunction about taking that weapon away and using it against you. MOST women do not have the physical strength to be able to prevent this from happening. Same goes for self-defense training. In theory it's a good idea, but in reality? All too often it gives women a false sense of security. Once again MOST women are not physically capable of taking on an adult male - especially one who is quite willing to hurt you in the first place. Women can't rely on the old "kick him in the balls" idea either. That is not always effective and may in fact lead to you being injured far more severely. Better options - yell 'FIRE' as loud as you can, pee (on yourself or him), or (if you can) throw up on your attacker. It's much more of a deterrent than a weapon that can be easily taken away. The best defense is to avoid situations that put you at risk. No, it shouldn't be this way, but sadly that is the reality.

Pee on him? Or on myself? I'm lost here. What would that accomplish?
- Agree
- December 10, 2012 - 08:12
Jess-- I totally agree. I am so sick of having to be afraid to walk the streets as a woman. Being afraid only gives power to these sick deviants. The penalties and public shaming for any man terrorizing or harming women and/or children should be severe with absolutely no tolerance! At the same time, maybe the RNC should be putting on self-defence lessons for women instead of telling them to watch out for weirdos! Back in the 60's, Mom used to carry a can of Carnation milk in her purse and a big hatpin in her pocket when walking alone at night. Whack him over the head, give him a good strong knee in the balls, jab him with something sharp. Stop being afraid, sisters. Lets take back the night!!!

There were sexual assaults in the mid 70's in that area (Empire Ave. To Portugal Cove Road to Bonaventure Ave to Elizabeth Ave) and the cops never ever solved those attacks so what makes one think they will have any success in solving these attacks. The best advice to women walking alone is #1 don't do it and #2 is carry a weapon of some sort that can inflict serious damage to a sexual predator and use it to hurt the SOB. Advice to the RNC is if and when you catch this scumbag have a public whipping of his genitals and those who he offended go first. In situations like this public corporal punishment should be reinstated so the perverts will think twice before assaulting others. If the powers that be at The Telegram do not print these comments they do all of our residents a disservice and simply contribute to the problem.

Why is this story only listed as the 4th story on the site? It should be in the top three with big headlines and the flashing photos. People's attention needs to b drwan to it so the physco can be caught.
- Jess
- December 09, 2012 - 16:15
Once again, local police are suggesting that victims take caution instead of adopting a zero tolerance policy for sexual assault. Target the perpetrators RNC, not the victims. We should be able to walk peacefully without being warned. Warn the perpetrators, not the victims.
- Kent
- December 10, 2012 - 10:37
What do you suggest the Police say? If they didn't warn the public then people like you would accuse them of concealing information. They are not blaming the victims but merely trying to prevent further victims. The police cannot be everywhere at one time. The problem is that there are people like you who relish the thought of being offended by something so you can vent. This usually stems from some sort of inadequacy.
- December 10, 2012 - 15:57
So there's a RAPIST on the loose, and you're upset because the police are warning people to watch out for him? Seriously? THERE IS ALREADY A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY. THEY JUST HAVEN'T CAUGHT THE GUY YET. If you think that warning people about a serial rapist is "targeting the victim", you need your head examined.

text: MONTGOMERY, SAMUEL JAMES (1896-1957)Congressman Samuel James Montgomery, the son of Henry Harrison and Ella Slack (Montgomery) Montgomery, was born December 1, 1896, in Buffalo, Larue County, Kentucky. In 1902 the family settled in Bartlesville, where Henry Montgomery was district judge for Washington and Nowata counties. Samuel James Montgomery attended the Bartlesville public schools and studied law at the University of Oklahoma at Norman. During World War I he served in the U.S. Marine Corps. Following the war he was admitted to the Oklahoma Bar in 1919 and practiced law with his father in Bartlesville. On June 9, 1921, Samuel James Montgomery married Elizabeth Grove Hutcheson at Fort Worth, Texas. They had two children: Henry and Elizabeth. A Republican, from March 1925 to March 1927 Montgomery served as U.S. Representative from Oklahoma's First Congressional District. When the House of Representatives defeated the McNary-Haugen Bill (farm-relief legislation) on May 21, 1926, Montgomery was the only Oklahoma congressional member who voted against the measure. Unsuccessful in his 1926 bid for reelection to Congress, he returned to Oklahoma, where he practiced law in Tulsa and Oklahoma City. Montgomery died June 4, 1957, in Oklahoma City and was buried in Memorial Park Cemetery in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. SEE ALSO: FARMING, GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS, TWENTIETH CENTURY.

"Great stuff!! Fabulous on stainless steel appliances. Much better than the gook that the appliance manufacturer recommends, much less mess, too. Also great as a jewelry soak. Clean your diamond ring and scrub with an old toothbrush. Much, much less expensive than purchased jewelry soak. (Don't use on pearls, opals, or other delicates, of course.)"

The Super Bowl
- Last night Mike Freeman was among a group of NFL writers having dinner at an Indy restaurant with commissioner Roger Goodell. A waitress told them that Tim Tebow was in the building, and when Tebow came over to greet the group at their table that was situated near a window people outside noticed the Denver quarterback and a crowd began to gather. Soon that crowd grew to 50 or more people, and police had to usher everyone off the road and onto the sidewalk. The power of Tebow is limitless.
- The Patriots prepared for the longer Super Bowl halftime break by going to the locker room for 31 minutes in the middle of Wednesday's practice.
- Matt Light thinks that Tom Brady's sweaters make him look like Mr. Rogers.
- Julian Edelman may not scare the Giants' receivers when he's in New England's defensive backfield as an extra DB. But earlier this year against the Patriots Eli Manning threw nine of his 39 pass attempts against nickel coverage, and he completed only three of them for 24 yards.
- Tom Coughlin was surprised to see Ahmad Bradshaw on the practice field yesterday.
- I visited the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio this past summer, and it's clearly a trip every hardcore football fan needs to make. A full day wasn't enough, and if I had the same behind-the-scenes access given to the Newark Star-Ledger's Dave D'Alessandro as he explored the hidden Giants material buried deep in the hall of fame's archives, I would have needed at least a week.
- Will Bill Belichick retire if the Patriots win Sunday? Please discuss this amongst yourselves.
- You know it's the Thursday of Super Bowl week when there are shirtless men in jogging pants on radio row.
- Bob Kraft isn't worried about the Sports Illustrated cover jinx, because the only SI issue he cares about smells of expensive cologne and has glossy pictures of models wearing bikinis.

And happy February!
Guess that means I've missed January.

And finished at 9.10 p.m.

Art Contest
On Saturday mornings we usually feature artwork from a talented designer. This time, we'd like to invite you to design a quote image in light of our forthcoming conference on sanctification. In this contest, three winners will walk away with a $75 Amazon gift certificate. Here are the details.
The designs will feature this sentence from John Piper (please include his name somewhere in the design):
"When it comes to killing my sin, I don't wait for the miracle, I act the miracle." –John Piper
Please put the emphasis on the last four words of the quote: ". . . I act the miracle."
The design format is up to you. You can sketch this quote with a pen and scan it or photograph it. You can digitally design this on a computer. You can paint it or chalk it and photograph it. You can create a collage and scan it. Your design can be black and white or color. Anything.
Please keep these designs abstract (i.e. no gore, no weapons).
Please send us a high quality JPEG file (≧2 MB). We will resize your submission to fit online, and the final designs will be published online no wider than 530 pix, and should be between 530–750 pix tall (square and vertical only).
Limit two submissions per person.
Please email your design(s) to us as a JPEG or PDF file attachment to: blog AT desiringgod DOT org
Submission due date: Monday, August 13, at noon.
No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited.
The top 10 (or so) designs will be selected by the blog team based on creativity, and those designs will be posted on the the DG Facebook page. The top final winners will be decided by the total number of "Likes" from our readers.
Finally, here's one very simple sample design to get you started:

On December 3, 1979, the last Pacer rolls off the assembly line at the American Motors Corporation (AMC) factory in Kenosha, Wisconsin. When the car first came on the market in 1975, it was a sensation, hailed as the car of the future. "When you buy any other car," ads said, "all you end up with is today's car. When you get a Pacer, you get a piece of tomorrow." By 1979, however, sales had faded considerably. Today, polls and experts agree: the Pacer was one of the worst cars of all time.
By the end of the 1960s, AMC was the only surviving independent automaker in the United States. The only way to assure AMC's future, company officials decided, was to embrace what they called a "Philosophy of Difference." That is, they built only cars that offered buyers something brand-new. (During the 1960s, the company had tried to compete directly with cars produced by the Big Three--General Motors, Ford and Chrysler--and had nearly gone bankrupt as a result.) They also decided to build cars that would meet the stringent federal safety and pollution standards that they imagined would be in place in 1980.
Thus, the Pacer: an "economy car" that was, despite its designs on the small-car market, amazingly heavy (thanks to those crash-protection standards) and terribly fuel-inefficient. Most peculiarly, the Pacer was nearly half as wide (77 inches) as it was long (171.5 inches, on a 100-inch wheelbase). In theory, this meant that four adults and their cargo could travel in comfort; in practice, it meant that the car was goofy-looking and impossible to park. Contributing to the overall goofiness were the car's enormous windows--more than one reviewer compared the Pacer to a fishbowl. Also, to make it easier for passengers to load packages into the back and drivers to climb in on the curb side, the left-hand door was shorter than the right one. (As a result, parallel parkers in Great Britain typically needed to crawl over the passenger seat to get out, because the driver's-side door was so big that it would get caught on the curb.) The short, squat car was also woefully underpowered.
Despite (or perhaps because of) its bad reputation, the Pacer has also earned a spot in pop-culture history. A 1976 Pacer--robin's-egg blue, with flames painted on the front fenders--starred in the 1992 film "Wayne's World" and in the accompanying video for the old Queen song "Bohemian Rhapsody." More recently, the rapper Eminem featured a late-model Pacer in the music video for his 2000 hit "The Real Slim Shady."

Decent Films Blog
Spotlight: My Architect
Posted Apr 12th 2010, 10:53 AM
For no particular reason, here is an older review you may not have read, for a film you may not have seen: My Architect (2002).
I've linked it on the homepage spotlight also, where I'll leave it for the rest of the week. Next week I'll spotlight something else from Decent Film's older or recent past.
If there's something to tie into to make a piece timely, like last week's spotlight on Faustina for Divine Mercy Sunday, I'll note that as appropriate. Otherwise, it'll just be a random selection of something I thought worth highlighting.

Suppose Google wanted to catch people that were displaying ads that weren't AdSense/AdWords ads, but claiming that they were? Perhaps the impostors wanted to add an air of legitimacy to their non-Google ads? Or maybe they were rejected by the AdSense program and are trying to make another ad program look more prestigious?
By changing the "Ads by Google" line to "Ads by Gooooogle". They could search their own indices to rapidly find people that were using the "Ads by Google" phrase and make them stop. They could have done this before, and then cross-referenced the pages with their "approved" AdSense sites/pages, but that would have been a monumental job. This makes it a lot easier.
Just a thought.
Whereas "Ads by Goooooooooogle" Servers multiple ads, if coded.

A look back at the shooting spree that began on October 2, 2002, claimed 13 victims and terrorized the D.C. area.
A Washington State dad couldn't handle his baby girl's crying, so he allegedly put the infant in the freezer and took a nap.
A man serving time for the murder of a former friend and business partner is suing his victim's family for emotional distress.
On September 28, 2000, Eric Plunkett's friends told their resident advisor that they hadn't seen him all day. It was strange because he was social and liked to keep his door open. When they checked his room, they found he had been killed. The first murder this close-knit community for the deaf had ever experienced.
The suspect is unusually young–6 or 7 years old–and wanted for robbery.
A judge sentenced Mthulisi Ndlovu, 39, to 20 years Friday for the October, 2011, murder of his live-in girlfriend, Mary Mushapaidzi, 42, in their Bonney Lake, Wash., home. Ndlovu initially told police that Mushapaidzi had gone for a run and never came back, but later admitted to beating her with pruning shears and strangling her during an argument over dirty dishes.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Fritz!
Facts about Fritz
- Breed: Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) Mix
- Color: Black
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Fritz's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Fritz # 562 is an 8-week-old high energy, playful Terrier mix that loves to be the center of attention. He is working on crate and leash training. He likes other dogs, cats and children. He will be available for adoption Sept. 14. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption form, downloadable from our website: http://www.lastchanceanimalrescue.org/adoptus.html and return it per instructions. Email firstname.lastname@example.com with questions.
Other Pets at Last Chance Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Fritz, a Waldorf Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) for sale in Waldorf, or seeking a Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) puppy from a breeder in Waldorf.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Waldorf already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Waldorf breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) breeders who help with Terrier (Unknown Type, Small) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Waldorf paves the way for another one to be saved.

Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams and the hard facts that have created America...with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.
Awesome show Lou, what a way to celebrate your 60th show! Carrie Schoen definitely sounds like she has a great time as the Dream Squad, I envy her! She's got one of the best jobs in the world. The 15th annual Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival definitely sounds like a great event to attend. Hopefully I can see it in person someday. Your ride on the Kilimanjaro Safari sounded like a lot of fun, but also informative too. Gets me excited for Disney's Animal Kingdom's big day coming up.
Again, awesome show Lou and congrats on 60 shows! Keep up the great work!
Keep it cool, and keep moving forward!

Very nice Lou. Great way to kick off your 60th show! It's nice having the show live from WDW.

Adults are only kids grown up, anyway. WD
...That's the real trouble with the world. Too many people grow up. WD
"For those who get it, no explanation is necessary. For those who don't, no explanation will do."
Wow that's a great intro. Very enticing. I'm holding off on listening to it just yet, because I'm making the 6 hour plane ride from Albany to California Wednesday for my first-ever Disneyland trip. This podcast will be a most excellent start to the trip. Can't wait to listen! :-)
Great show so far. I listened to half driving up the Parkway to work. I cant wait to hear the rest of the safari, that was where I was when I arrived at work.
That safari was awesome. Wish I could get a tour like that
Great show!!
Halfway through the show. It sounds almost like Lou was on the Sunrise Safari tour that is only available to those on Concierge-level rooms at The Animal Kingdom Lodge. Except, when we did it, the tour was 1 hour and the guy said theirs was 30 minutes...hmmm
Another fantastic show! Kilamanjaro Safari is one of my all time favs! is it possible to arrange for a tour like that? I would love to go on a personal safari!! I was so immersed in the savanna I nearly drove past my exit!
I really enjoyed the Kilimanjaro Safari you took us on. It was definitely great for the imagination and made me miss WDW so much!
Thanks for sharing!
How busy do you think the flower and garden festival would be the day after mother's day?

Hey all...Just new to this forum. Just wanted to drop in and say this show was great, and for more reasons than most would think its great. I had the pleasure of speaking with Carrie from the dream squad about 3 weeks ago when she called to tell us we WON THE YEAR OF A MILLION DREAMS DVC membership!!!!! When Lou was talking and mentioned he had heard someone won from mailing in, it was none other than me and my fiance he was talking about (although he did not know me)
If anyone would like the story, I would be happy to post it..I can honestly say that Disney made OUR dreams and wishes come true!!!

I love my crate its clear I am very used to being crated. I love to be brushed and adored and I love to snuggle on the couch with my human… Other dogs are OK but I just ignore them, if they pay me too much attention then I get anxious and snap or bark and runaway but the dogs I am with do not pay me any mind and I do not bother them. There is a little Chi hua hua I am with and she snaps at me sometimes and I ignore that too.
I am just a wonderful little dog.

This Filipina Twat looks like she's one of the better fucks over there.
I've heard Khate was referred to the guys from a Trike Patrol fan. he put her on touch with them and was pretty soon scheduled for a filming. She was absolutely of an acceptable Trike Patrol caliber. (Some will say their standard ain't that high tough, he he).
Khate is a local girl and she seems to be very business-like. She acts like she has done this before, many times. She's not of the younger ones either, but not a milf. I think she's cute. The only negative thing I would say about her is the tattoo on her ass. (I heard someone say, somewhere, that tattoo's on female asses are distracting. We don't do doggy to read, we do it to fuck)
Well, the fucking starts and she is pretty convincing. This Filipina Bar Girl sure seems to enjoy the fucking. Look at the way she rides him. I wouldn't mind tracking down this Filipina Bar Girl in Angeles city and do her myself. But I'm not going over for a while, so I probably never see her.
She is sure worth to take a look at.

A segfault in gcc is pretty serious, and almost always indicates that there's something wrong with your hardware, most probably your RAM. Download memtest86 from http://www.memtest86.com/ and test your RAM banks with it. It will take some serious time, so you might want to leave it on during the night or something like that.
You don't happen to live near a nuclear power plant or have radium concrete in your house? Alpha particles are known to play badly with the RAM.

My second RAM bank crashed just yesterday. It sucks. The strange thing is that it happened just as I began installing gentoo. You know, I've never had a problem with it before, so first I was beginning to suspect that something was wrong with gentoo, but then I checked it with memtest86, and it turns out that it kept changing bits on me. It's just so strange that it coincided so precisely with when I began installing gentoo, don't you think.
Anyway, I removed it, so I'm running with 256 MBs instead now. It kind of sucks that I'll have to buy a new one.
It would be a funny support call, though. =) Luckily, you can always prove them wrong with memtest86.

If there's a Distro that's going to stress CPU and memory, it's Gentoos massive amount of compilation. I never noticed my overclocking causing problems in Windows, other than the occasional game dumping me back to the desktop, but 18 hours of GCC can certainly stress test your rig. It's all good clean fun though.
Bummer about the screwed Ram tho.

Paul Calas, business development manager for the Anthony Marano Co., Chicago, said the firm recently established a Compac line for repacking tomatoes, with four lines in the facility running with the new technology. The company also is expanding its line of specialty produce offerings in addition to new packaging options, he said.
Michigan Apple Committee
Gretchen Mensing, communications and marketing manager for the DeWitt-based Michigan Apple Committee, said the group is updating its logo and rolling out new point-of-sale materials. The committee also is seeking candidates for the 2013-14 Michigan Apple Queen, who will be crowned in December at the Great Lakes Expo. The award's scholarship, which goes to a woman 17-23 who is involved in the state's apple industry, was increased to $6,000 this year. Mensing and Mike Bardon, account manager, said this season's apple crop is looking good in initial harvests.
WP Rawl
Ashley Rawl, director of sales and marketing for WP Rawl, Pelion, S.C., said the company in September plans to introduce a Tangy Citrus Kale Yeah salad kit. The case of six 12-ounce packs will include greens, sunflower seeds and dressing self-contained in the bag.
Riggio Distribution Co.
Scott Hoerman, corporate sales manager for Riggio Distribution Co., Detroit, and Janet Cousino, marketing coordinator, said the new fresh-cut apple consumer pack options include a 14-ounce pack for retail and a 2.5 individual size portion, in addition to 3-pound bags of fresh apple slices for foodservice.

This week was OAA testing at Paige's school. They would be tested on their Math and reading skills. (You can read more about that here if you are not aware of the test.) Paige normally does a great job on standardized tests, yet she had major anxiety over this test. We just received her scores back from the STAR testing that she took last year and she scored way above average. This kid is super smart, so why would she be all stressed about a test?
The school administration and teachers, that's why.
Someone is going around the school (not sure if it is teachers or the administration) and telling the kids how they will get held back if they fail these OAA tests. First of all, scare tactics do not work. If anything it will have the reverse effect and kids will be so stressed out that they won't be able to focus.
So here is my child, crying and stressing out over a stupid test. I also found out that she wasn't alone (from Facebook). Children from other districts were having the fear of being held back placed in their heads. Not the best thing to hear when you are a parent.
I calmed Paige's fears before school explaining how she is a very smart kid and if she does her best she will be just fine and sent her off to school. I was expecting a call from school that she was hysterical, but luckily whatever I said to her worked. She made it through the day.
After I got home from work I ran to her room, where she was playing Barbies, to ask how her day went. Waterworks started immediately. She just let everything out from the whole day and was still stressed about the tests. I took her downstairs to have a talk with Dave and I. Surely he could figure out how to calm her down since I had failed. Dave has been known around these parts as the kid/baby whisperer.
After listening to Paige's fears, Dave explained to her that no matter what we would fight for her. This ridiculous test was not going to make or break her. If they tried to hold her back in 3rd grade, we would go to battle for her. That was the game changer.
This was all that she needed. All that she wanted to hear was that we would fight for her. And fight for her we will. In my heart though I know that she will be just fine and won't have any issues with that test, but I know that in the future she may need us to fight for her and I am glad that she knows that we will.
This started out as a different post altogether but over the course of 24 hours it morphed into something totally different. I had this crazy "Mama Bear" post written about how the education system is a joke and how it is ruining our children instead of helping them, but after the above course of events I realized that the most important thing is that your children know that you are there for them no matter what. You will fight for them.

I needed DH to paint ceiling in kitchen since early December so I could paint rest. As I was waking up he was dismantling my kitchen throwing all sorts of stuff into bins, it was one h*ll of a start to the day and kept on going.
Happy it is done but not a fun voyage.

'Scrooge' tradition returns to Palace Theatre stage
BY: Rikki Cason | November 24, 2012
The classic holiday tale of redemption will once again be brought to life on the Historic Palace Theatre stage.
"Scrooge" the musical, a twist on the Charles Dickens story, will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 30 and Saturday, Dec. 1 and 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 2.
This is the ninth year the show will be performed at the Palace, 2 East Ave., Lockport and has become an annual holiday tradition for people all around Lockport.
"It's really turned into a community event," said Director Chris Parada. "It's been a great thing for the theater. The cast, crew and audience members look forward to it every year."
Parada said each year many members of the cast return. He said many who started as children in the show are now adults and taking on bigger roles.
There are more than 50 people in this year's cast from all around Western New York. Actors range from second-grade to adults.
This year's production will feature new lighting and special effects to enhance the performance.
"I'm excited about that," said Parada. "It really enhances the show."
Lockport's Jack Landrigan will be performing in his ninth "Scrooge" production. He will again be playing the role of Bob Cratchit.
"It's a show to kick off the Christmas season," said Landrigan. "It's an enjoyable show about redemption. It's a really good theme for Christmas."
He said each year "Scrooge" starts off Christmas with a bang.
"It's an age old story that is heartwarming to audiences," said Landrigan. "It's great being part of the cast."
Kathy Dewey will also be performing for the ninth year. She will be playing the role of Mrs. Cratchit.
"It's all about the holidays," she said. "The show is not about presents, it's about finding the true meaning of Christmas."
Dewey looks forward to performing in "Scrooge" each year. She said the cast has become like a second family to share the holidays with.
She believes audiences will enjoy the musical numbers, including "Fezziwig," an upbeat song with lots of energy and the ending when the cast sings, "Joy to the World."
"It shows the true meaning of the show," said Dewey.
Tickets for "Scrooge" are $18 for adults. $15 for senior citizens and $13 for students with id.

We are Macmillan. Cancer Support
Find out how we produce our information|
Radiotherapy to the head and neck can cause the glands in the mouth to produce less saliva and make your mouth dry. This is called xerostomia and it can be temporary or permanent.
This information is about how you can help yourself if you are having problems with a dry mouth. You may also find it helpful to read our information about radiotherapy| and diet|.
Saliva, or spit, is the fluid produced by the salivary glands, which are situated around the jaw and under the tongue. Saliva keeps the mouth clean and helps prevent infection. It also protects your teeth, as a lack of saliva can increase your risk of developing tooth decay or gum disease.
When you eat, more saliva is produced to moisten the food, which makes it easier to chew and swallow. The saliva also begins the process of digestion. A lack of saliva can change the taste of the food you eat and may also mean that you cannot swallow food so well.
Radiotherapy treatment to the head and neck|, or mouth, can affect the salivary glands, so that less saliva is produced. The glands may recover over time (sometimes this takes several months), but for some people the dry mouth may be permanent.
It's important to tell your doctor if you have a dry mouth, as they may be able to prescribe medicines to help. Pilocarpine (Salagen®) is usually used. Sometimes a drug called bethanechol (Myotonine®) may be used instead of pilocarpine, although it's not licensed to treat dry mouth.
These drugs stimulate the salivary glands to produce saliva and will only work if the damage to the glands is temporary or partial. Two or three months of continuous treatment with pilocarpine may be needed before it is effective in stimulating temporarily damaged salivary glands to work again.
Like many drugs, pilocarpine and bethanechol have side effects, which can include dizziness, sweats, feeling sick (nausea)| and being sick (vomiting).
Artificial saliva products can also help moisten the mouth. As their effect may last only for a short time, it's best to use them just before meals and at night to prevent the dryness from disturbing your sleep. Some artificial saliva products are acidic and can damage your teeth, so try to use a saliva substitute that is pH neutral.
Several brands are available and they come in the form of a gel, spray, pastille or tablet. You may find it helpful to try more than one form of artificial saliva brand to find out which one suits you best.
As saliva helps keep your mouth clean, it is important to brush your teeth with a soft toothbrush twice a day and to use mouthwashes regularly. Mouthwashes containing detergents or alcohol should be avoided as they can dry and irritate the lining of the mouth. Your doctor or nurse will be able to advise you about the best mouthwash to use.
Regular dental check-ups are essential, as the risk of developing tooth decay is increased by a lack of saliva.
If your salivary glands are still able to produce some saliva, sucking sugar-free sweets or chewing sugar-free gum can encourage saliva production. Pineapple chunks, ice cubes, frozen tonic water, yoghurt and buttermilk can also be helpful, although some people find that very cold foods or drinks may be too uncomfortable to use.
To keep your mouth moist you can drink sips of water or sugar-free fizzy drinks regularly throughout the day. Rinsing your mouth with a little vegetable oil (about a teaspoonful - 5ml) or a small amount of softened butter or spread (margarine) can also help, especially at night.
These include alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes. Some prescribed medicines can also cause a dry mouth - it can be helpful to ask your doctor or nurse to identify these, as it may be possible to reduce the dosage or change the drug. It may also be helpful to try acupuncture| as this may sometimes increase the amount of saliva that is produced.
Many people can lose their appetite| because of a dry mouth, or may find that foods taste different|, which can cause eating difficulties. Here are some tips that can make food more palatable:
This section has been compiled using information from a number of reliable sources including:

Soldotna High School students, staff and administration would like to thank all of individuals who made our Sports Complex Field Dedication a huge success. The football games, halftime activities and Veterans' Day celebration truly made the day special. The day continued with the community barbecue and community dance where fun was had by all!
It's come to my attention that attacks about Senator Mark Begich's record as Anchorage's mayor are running in ads across the state. I'm writing to set the record straight and share my personal experience of working with Senator Mark Begich when he was Mayor.
It is a genuine pleasure to see the Peninsula Clarion running stories about Hope Community Resources and our activities on the Kenai Peninsula (August 11, September 10). Hope has provided services throughout Alaska for 45 years and today over 1,400 individuals (children, adolescents and adults) and their families receive community supports through nine regional offices.
In 2004, Hope opened an office on the Kenai Peninsula with six individuals and families. Hope currently supports over 150 people in eight areas in this region.
Having done some research on the recent background of Tom Bearup, currently running for Kenai Peninsula Borough mayor, I am interested in the reasons for his change in career focus. My research shows that he ran for Sheriff in Pinal County, Arizona in 2012, after working in the Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff Department for several years. Mr. Bearup was unsuccessful in that election and now is making his mayoral bid here. My questions are: How would his law enforcement and campaign experiences in Arizona benefit the Kenai Peninsula Borough?
Here I sit next to the picture window watching Kelly dress down Ward Churchill and then Dinesh gives him a go also. Poor Ward, he sure can't find much good in America or anything America has ever done in our history as a country.
If you don't watch Fox News, sorry to leave you out of the loop, but that's not really what this story is about.
It is Friday evening and as I look out the window, I am reminded that nature is far more enlightening than anything electronic.
I heard it once said a Democracy is nothing more than two wolves and a lamb voting on what's for dinner. Most believe Democracy is the linchpin of Freedom and Liberty. Hogwash.
With enough money or press coverage the minds of the majority will be formed. The planet is ablaze where minorities are in rebellion against majority rule.
With a vote coming up soon, commercial time is filled with Mark Begich approved commercials condemning Dan Sullivan and Dan Sullivan approved commercials condemning Mark Begich. Will some legislators out there please enact laws that politicians who blacken other politicians' names automatically become ineligible to run for office? I don't really know any of you aspiring politicians personally. I've met Mark when he was mayor, he'd come to the annual lab tech meetings in March or April and address us. I really liked him for that.
I want to express my sincere thanks to Mayor Mike Navarre for fixing a huge problem for me and over a dozen other senior citizens of the borough who were denied their senior property tax exemption for this, our first year filing. The Borough Assembly said our "excuse" for filing late was not for "good cause." Being "unaware" of a February 15 filing deadline was not a good enough reason for the assembly to waive the late-file and give us the exemption we qualified for.
As co-chair for the Congressional Spouses for Suicide Education and Prevention, I wanted to write to remind Alaskans that this is both national suicide prevention week as well as suicide prevention month at the National Military Family Association. Suicide claims the lives of over 39,000 individuals annually and is the 10th leading cause of premature death in our country. Many of those who die are suffering from treatable depression and other diseases. Alarmingly Alaska has one of the highest rates in the nation of suicides per capita.
Thank you to many community members who generously donated to Art for Humanity during the month-long art show at Kaladi's on Kobuk. The month was very profitable; Central Peninsula Habitat is thankful to all of you for your support of our current build.

Magnetic Field and Atmosphere
Name: Scott Status: Educator Grade: 9-12 Location: MA Country: United States Date: December 2006
How necessary is our magnetic field really for protecting our atmosphere? Would we really lose our atmosphere if we lost our magnetic field like in that movie The Core?
The magnetic field is not necessary for preventing the atmosphere from leaving the Earth; gravity holds the atmosphere, just as it holds us, to the Earth.
However, the Earth's magnetic field is very important to the atmosphere in another way. It shields the Earth from most of the charged particles and radiation from the Sun, although in severe solar storm conditions there is not enough shielding to entirely protect satellites, some communication equipment on Earth, and electric power grid systems. The magnetic field also directs the streams of particles from the Sun into magnetic field lines, resulting in the aurora, as well as enhancement or disturbance of communication signals beamed through the atmosphere.
David R. Cook
Climate Research Section

Argonne National Laboratory
Dear Scott:
Our atmosphere is held close by Earth's gravity. Loss of the magnetic field would not affect gravity and not affect the atmosphere.
Having said that, a collapse of the magnetic field is possible and has happened many times in the past. In events known as geomagnetic reversals, the field weakens, disappears and comes back but with the north and south magnetic poles switched. In other words, the only long term effect would be that your compass would now point south. Geomagnetic reversals were instrumental in convincing the Geophysical community of the reality of continental drift.
While the field weakens and rebuilds in a reversal, Earth's surface is exposed to more cosmic rays and high energy particles from the Sun and space. But to my knowledge, there are no extinctions or other notable events in the fossil record linked to geomagnetic reversals so the lasting effects seem to be minor.

I was comparing the old green giant spider card with the new blue widow spider card. I noticed that there are significant differences between the two on rules for web and poison tokens. So, then I compared them with the poison attack from the wood wyvern and found that its counters have an identical effect with those of the blue spider.
1) I am assuming that all web or poison counters from the old green spider should now use the same rules as the blue spider. Otherwise, you could run into the annoying situation of having multiple counters of the same type on the board from different sources following different rules.
2) Also, do you suppose that the web effect of the spider should trigger a critical hit check for a dragon in the same way that a lore card with a web or hold effect can?
3) If a spider rolls both a lore to web a unit and one or more flags at the same time, which gets resolved first -- the web or the retreat?

"Fight the Power": Music as a Social Force
Suggested Grade Level: 7-12
This research guide serves as a resource for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's Education Department course, "Fight the Power": Music as a Social Force". For additional information on the course and for more teacher resources, see http://rockhall.com/education/inside-the-classroom/rockin/FTP/
In many times and places, people have used music as a powerful tool for social change. The story of rock and roll overlaps with some of the most turbulent times in U.S. history. In the 1960s alone, American society was being torn apart by debates over the Vietnam War, the Civil Rights movement, and the Women's Liberation movement. Since that time and well into the present, musicians have entered such debates by spreading messages of revolution, protest, and empowerment through musical styles as diverse as folk, rock, and soul. This class features songs from the 1960s and 1970s that have challenged audiences to consider the alternatives and make changes in our society. Students explore recordings and videos of legendary artists to examine expressions of social commentary contained in lyrics, performance styles, and historical images.
