Spiritual Guidance: Patch 4.3 holy priest buffs and more tier 13 set bonuses {WoW}
Oct 3rd 2011 4:14PM I feel like you misread the bonus, Dawn. Its on use of Divine Hymn, and the duration is 23s to account for the 8s channel of DH (15s/3 min cd, much like the other class set bonuses).
The four piece is still awful for holy and average for disc.
Spiritual Guidance: Besting Baleroc (and other shadow priest alliteration) {WoW}
Aug 17th 2011 10:02PM Most healers CANNOT solo up to 18 stacks (this is 25, YMMV if in 10). You need a cd at 12 (TB trinket, AM, PS, barrier, something) and dispersion at 18-19. Two healers might be able to manage 18 stacks, but at that point it is hitting for very nearly your entire health.
The Lawbringer: What World of Warcraft can learn from other microtransaction models, part 1 {WoW}
Jul 29th 2011 5:28PM If you had read anything on this site/sister sites about this, it wasn't the monocles they were concerned with - it was the potential in-game 'power' that developers had discussed that they were worried about.
Try to be informed before making inane comments like that.
Raid Rx: Auditing the healing team {WoW}
Jun 17th 2011 3:22PM Having been a healing lead in my last guild, then transferring to a new guild and seeing a totally different approach, this is an excellent article not only for healing leads, but every healer. I'm of the opinion that every healer needs to know how they themselves fit into the healing puzzle, as well as where others strengths and weaknesses are.
I'd also add that as a healing lead, you need to understand not only the classes your healers play, but also the people behind them. Some people are excellent at doing one or two specific things (keep up tank X, backup tank Y, keep yourself up) and can nail these roles but don't perform as well without direction, while others might be better as floaters - healers that can see the forest for the trees and anticipate where problems are/will be - capable of adapting and throwing cds without prompting, but might chafe at having a single assignment (although everyone needs to be able to follow directions and keep someone up).
WoW Rookie: A rookie's outlook on patch 4.2 {WoW}
May 26th 2011 3:52PM "7-nights-a-week raid-fest we have right now"
Huh? 3 night/week guilds have cleared the content (yes, all of it). 9 hours a week is sufficient to be 9/13. This is the type of hyperbole that gets people into trouble.
Patch 4.2: Firelands lore spoilers and speculations {WoW}
May 5th 2011 5:35PM You didn't do/see the Shadowmourne quest line, did you? Frostmourne is the weapon of the LK. Shadowmourne was *created* by the player - with help from the folks in the base of ICC - as the only way to fight fire with fire, so to speak. No one "drops" a -mourne, and Frostmourne is reasonably addressed by the cinematic after Arthas dies.
Ol' Grumpy's first week with Patch 4.1 {WoW}
May 2nd 2011 7:18PM As a counterpoint, isn't it *our* time we're talking about here? I'm willing to wipe a few times if the group is honestly trying, but as an example: joining a ZA group on a pally alt, we wiped twice on bear gauntlet due to people rushing ahead and just generally thinking they could just faceroll it. I stuck it out, killed bear, then dropped group. I didn't feel as if the frustration I knew was coming for the rest of the run was worth the run itself.
I guess what I'm asking is at what point is it okay to leave the group?
Spiritual Guidance: The aftermath of patch 4.1 for holy and discipline priests {WoW}
May 2nd 2011 9:50AM Interesting take on atonement, Dawn. I'm a shade behind you in progression (7/13) and I find that basically every fight has some healing downtime where you can HF/smite rotate, and some give you HUGE bonuses for doing so (V+T - double dips on engulfing, so you can throw 110k crit heals + 40k DAs via smite, trivializing most damage for ~20s in the melee). Even fights where I don't use it a bunch (atramedes, for instance), I still generally get 2 AA's off, which provides a pretty big throughput burst when needed. And the new holy fire hits like GH for 1/4th the cost.
Just a counter point 2c for those interested.
Patch 4.2 preview: The legendary staff, Dragonwrath {WoW}
Apr 28th 2011 4:05PM Absurd. Assuming they don't mean heroic (in which case you'd be justified in your point of view), 12/12 N does NOT take 16 hours a week. You have to kill each boss once...and by the time the chain comes out, you'll also have access to 359 gear just for running random dungeons via JP. Even if you are very casual (3-4 hrs a week), 6-9/12 should not be out of your reach right now. Given this won't be out for another month at the earliest, and you should be looking at 9-11/12 minimum at that point.
It isn't too much of them to ask that you go back and piledrive content that you overgear ONCE. Also...if you aren't capable of downing one tier old content, you won't be getting far on a legendary chain anyway (they aren't going to be passing these out like hotcakes).
Officers' Quarters: 5 tips for guild recruiting in a post-Cataclysm world {WoW}
Mar 28th 2011 2:48PM You may not "need" a specific class/role for *your* guild, but I can tell you that in 25H modes, you do need specific classes. Working on H-Twins (as recently as a few weeks ago) and don't have 2+ sub rogues? Try again next week. H-Magmaw or H-Conclave with no frost DK? Have fun. DPS makeup, at least, is somewhat homogenized (you need a balance of ranged and melee and you need a half dozen capable AOE classes), but healing makeup is far from it.

Good-paying jobs are essential to help achieve and support our standard of living. Even though the national unemployment rate has recently dropped from 7 percent to 6.7 percent and is currently 6.2 percent for Bradley County, we must look closer at the data.
There were close to 1 million "discouraged workers" nationally in December. Discouraged workers are persons not currently looking for work because they believe no jobs are available for them. Another 1.5 million persons marginally attached to the labor force in December had not searched for work for reasons such as school attendance or family responsibilities. These numbers are not included in the calculation of the unemployment rate. (Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics)
The National Association of Manufacturers recently reported that 82 percent of manufacturers cannot find skilled, qualified workers. Today's job market demands that students do more than just "graduate" from high school or college.
Currently, a large percentage of first-year college students must take one or more remedial courses in reading or math because they are not "college ready." They must also be "work ready." A "work ready" individual possesses the fundamental, portable skills that are critical to training and workplace success. The essential foundational skills are — yes, you guessed it — reading for comprehension, writing and mathematics. You might recall them being referred to as The Three R's: "reading, 'riting and 'rithmatic."
They form the basis for supporting more advanced skill attainment. Employers also place value in "work ready" individuals who possess personal characteristics, personality traits and behavioral skills that enhance their ability to successfully interact with co-workers and management. These skills are sometimes referred to as "soft skills" and are often neglected and not fully addressed by parents or educators.
Cleveland State Community College is committed to developing skilled workers for advanced manufacturing jobs. To help demonstrate this commitment, OneSource assessment and industrial readiness-training center was established in March 2013.
Our goal was to partner with advanced manufacturers to identify skill gaps, assess and provide training to close those gaps. The college, along with support from the Tucker Foundation, Bank of Cleveland, Wright Brothers Construction, Wacker Chemie AG, Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of Commerce, Pioneer Credit, Manufacturer's Chemical LLC, First Tennessee Bank, Olin and Cormetech made a significant financial investment to purchase scientifically validated assessment tools and curriculum. We currently assess and provide skills training related to mechanical, electrical, PLC (Programmable Logic Control), CNC (Computer Numeric Control), Process Control and soft skills.
Since March 2013, we have assessed a total of 184 individuals. To date, 31 unemployed or underemployed candidates who completed our weeklong job training "boot camp" received job offers here in Bradley County.
In an effort to reach students in grade school and help further develop foundational skills, OneSource initiated the college's first LEGO Robotic STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) camp in July 2013. We have subsequently conducted three STEM camps and expanded to our Athens campus in McMinn County. A total of 150 grade schoolers have now attended our LEGO Robotics STEM camps. We will broaden our approach with STEM this summer and add culinary, biochemistry and multimedia, as well as the LEGO Robotics camps.
There is no single approach to 21st century work readiness, because students can acquire knowledge and skills through various types of job training programs. Career pathways may include a traditional college degree, on-the-job training, work experience or a certificate program leading to an occupational certification.
In a concerted effort to align academic programs with workforce needs, Cleveland State is actively engaged with the Southeast Tennessee Pathways to Prosperity project led by business, community leaders and educators. The Pathways project will work with local school systems, businesses, civic agencies and colleges to design academic programs more aligned with the workforce needs. Incorporating CTE (Career Technical Education) and the framework for 21st century learning throughout the entire education system will create a holistic vision for transforming learning experiences and outcomes for all students.
One thing is crystal clear. Without the essential postgraduate education and training, many job seekers will not be considered for jobs that are in high demand. Instead, they risk following a downward spiral, working in jobs they dislike, and may eventually drop out of the job market entirely.

PCRF Banquet and Fundraiser
November 8, 2007 by TMO
By Susan Schwartz, Muslim Media News Service (MMNS)
Anaheim–The devastation in Palestine is reported regularly in the media and is most tragically limned when the suffering of children can be seen. It is not possible to be inured to such suffering when it is inflicted on society's most innocent victims. Hunger, disrupted education and daily violence pale when the spector of a sick or injured child appears.
The Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), founded in 1991, is one of the leading children's relief organizations in the world. While the PCRF has the Arab children of the world as its purview, its primary focus is in Palestine.
The Southern California chapter of the PCRF held a highly successful banquet and fundraiser this past weekend at the Anaheim Hilton in Anaheim, California.
The event, the third for the PCRF, was titled Healing Hands. When the attendees entered the dining area they saw some of the work of the PCRF on twin screens and heard the beautiful voices of youth singing Palestinian songs.
The keynote speaker, Dr. Hanan Ashrawi, was given a standing ovation when she entered the room. Dr. Ashrawi has few peers as a spokesperson for the Palestinian people. She is the recipient of many awards as a humanitarian and warrior for peace and justice. They include, but are not limited to: the Olof Palme Award; the Sydney Peace Prize, and the Defender of Democracy Award.
She is an elected member of the Palestinian Legislative Counsel, Jerusalem District. Her address captivated the audience, her passion and expertise illuminating her words.
After the welcoming remarks by the PCRF CEO, Steve Sosebee, Lily Karam, the President of the Southern California chapter, took to the podium and addressed the audience.
After an excellent meal, Steve Sosebee presided as Master of Ceremonies. He introduced PCRF activists from the audience and presented awards to local PCRF officers. Also featured in the evening's program was Palestinian born Nizar Wattad who read his poetry as well as two poems by Dr. Ashrawi. A visual presentation of the work of the PCRF was narrated by Dr. Alexander Zourous, a frequent and dedicated volunteer in Palestine. He is Chief of Pediatric Surgery at Loma Linda (California) University Children's Hospital.
Midway through the program two young people sang a medley of beautiful and haunting songs. The music seemed a perfect fit to the story of pain and suffering in Palestine and brought tears to the eyes of many who listened.
During the appeal for funds the audience gave generously. "I can't think of a better cause" said one young woman.
The PCRF sends medical missions to Palestine to make diagnoses, to treat injured or sick children and to perform surgeries that include (but are not limited to): plastic and reconstructive surgery; orthopedic surgery; scoliosis and spine surgery; ophthalmic surgery and vascular surgery. Medical missions include doctors, nurses and other medical personnel.
The members volunteer their time, and the children treated do not have to pay for any procedures or services. If children cannot be treated locally, they are flown to an appropriate site outside of Palestine, often to the United States. Again their families are not required to pay, and the child stays with an Arabic speaking host family, supplemented by caring PCRF visitors, during the entirety of his or her stay in the United States.
The following year, the ICU was doubled in size. It remains the only ICU for Pediatric Cardiac Surgery in Palestine.
Amal Jubran, a Palestinian who lives in the San Diego area,found out about the work of the PCRF and volunteered as a scrub nurse to go to Palestine with a medical mission. Upon her return she attempted to get an article published in a local newspaper detailing her experiences and the situation in Palestine. Her attempts were unsuccessful. When asked if she wanted to be quoted with her name, she replied: "I am not afraid. I want to tell the story."

Well I'm sure a lot of you know via facebook, but Gae has been updating her status while they are at the hospital waiting on results from her daughter's CT scan. Apparently her daughter had a seizure at around 2pm and they are waiting for results.
I've texted Gae and she said that her daughter is okay right now and that she has pain meds so that's good. She is resting.
There was nothing on the CT scan that they found so far, and they are probably going to be in the hospital for tonight at least.
Just wanted to send prayers & pixie dust their way!!!

I live in Houston in a 1500 sp.ft. patio home. My family room windows have a problem with direct sunlight in the winter months from morning until noon. The primary problem is UV protection of the furnishings. However, I want clear glass for the remainder of the time as that room needs as much light as possible. The windows are single pane and don't want window replacement for now. Today I called a company that installs Geoshield CLEAR window film (IR-70). Their quote was $10 sq.ft. for a total of about $1000 for my 2 windows and patio door. Solar shades are also an option but don't relish the idea of raising and lowering those babies on a daily basis, esp. on the patio door. Has anyone used this product or one similar to it? How does it look on the exterior, and does it look really clear from the inside? Does it darken the room much when the sun is not direct? The samples will help but would appreciate feedback. Also, I could move up from 2 ml. to 4 ml. and get some hurricane and security protection. Any thoughts regarding this aspect? |

Seems a bit high to me for an applied film but truth be told, I have no idea what people charge for this stuff. 3M makes a bunch of nice stuff so I would check out their offering first and then go from there. |
- Posted by Texasgal47 (My Page) on Sun, Aug 26, 12 at 14:05
Thanks for the follow-up. Those figures seemed somewhat high to me too. The consultant said clear film is more expensive than tinted. You're right, for that price I need to do further research. |

I love to cook, and I love to try new things whenever I can. I have two beagles who are my furry little floor cleaners, and a wonderful husband (as of 8/16/07!) who has a very talkative 10 year old daughter. She loves to help me in the kitchen when she's at our house, no matter what I'm making.
I am a runner, this year I'm running almost every 5k and 10k I can find, next year I'm hoping to do a couple half marathons. When I search for healthy recipes, I try to find a good carb-protien balance. When I search for something that just sounds good, anything goes!
My favorite cookbooks are my mom's old church cookbooks I learned to cook from when I was a child. You can always tell the pages the good recipes are on, they're stained and dirty!
I love to cook about anything, my favorite recipes though are crockpot recipes; the easier the better! I don't mind putting in a lot of time/effort with a recipe, as long as it pays off in the end.
I love good wine too, and go to a couple wine tastings a month looking for a new one. My favorites right now are most Edelweiss and Vignoles, and Yellow Tail Pinot Noir. Hermann, MO is a great little Midwest wine town with several vineyards and wineries, great place to go on a wine trip. They have Oktoberfest every weekend in October.
I think my husband married me because with in the first year of dating, I made him homemade chicken noodle soup with homemade noodles, runzas (er, for those not from the midwest, I think they're called bierocks), and every other recipe I had in my arsenal. Every other woman he'd known was a take it out of a box and heat it up kind of cook. I put a good 20 pounds on the both of us, but that's ok.
My favorite restaurant is probably Subway, just for the health factor. I also love Chinese, Mexican, Italian, and American food.

"The basic taste of the broth was wonderful! Changes we made- only had 1.3# meat- went with that. Used 2-3 Tbl olive oil, no butter. Used veg buillion instead of beef broth. Lots more veggies- twice the tomatoes and carrots, extra parsnip, and 4 small potatoes. Just right for a winter night."

Rdio's Android app got a teensy, tiny update today, adding gapless playback to all devices running Android 4.1. According to the "What's New" section of the Play Store page, the feature was added in by popular demand. For the uninitiated, gapless playback is exactly what it sounds like: a seamless transition from one track to the next. It's a big deal for some users, and much harder to do on a streaming music service than on local playback.
PowerAMP, hands down the best music player in the Android Market, was updated today to include a couple of long-sought features, most notably true gapless playback and crossfading between tracks. Gapless playback is pure joy for people who listen to a lot of mixtapes broken down into individual songs, and crossfading is the icing on the cake, preferred by many music lovers.
Other notable additions include .cue file support, a silence remover, backing up and restoring settings into the cloud (finally someone's implementing this functionality available ever since Froyo!), and a host of bug fixes.

Kansas City, Mo. is tightening its budget belt and shutting down nearly half of its public school system. The school board voted Wednesday to close 29 of its 61 schools.
Administrators said the move will keep the district from plowing through what is left of the $2 billion it received from a groundbreaking desegregation case.
Angry parents and politicians packed Wednesday's school board meeting hoping to stop the vote.
"Those who have aided and abetted in the economic decline of the urban core, you will be remembered and I assure you, the taxpayers will deal with you," said Sharon Sanders-Brooks, a Kansas City council member.
"I'm really sad," parent Nicole McNallan said. "It's a great school. My son has had a lot of success here. It's a great learning environment."
The district will also cut about 700 jobs and try to sell its downtown central office.

Hearing Coming Next Week On Hands-Free Cell Phone Law
Friday, March 7, 2014
(Denver, CO) -- There's a chance Colorado drivers could soon be restricted to using their cell phones via a hands-free device behind the wheel. A hearing is scheduled for next week on a measure in the state legislature. It's backed by Aurora lawmaker Jovan Melton. Twelve states in the U.S. currently have a hands-free only policy on the books. The bill will be heard in a House committee on Wednesday.

Dendrophobia is the irrational fear of trees or of the forest. It is a very common phobia, but it is not well-documented because those who suffer from the phobia don't like to talk about it because they fear ridicule from others.
Although it is an irrational fear, it is a very real fear to those who suffer from Dendrophobia. The fear is so intense that they have severe panic attacks and anxiety. It must be really hard to deal with being afraid of trees.
If you have Dendrophobia leave a comment and tell everyone your story. Knowledge is very powerful. If people can gain more knowledge about phobias, maybe they will begin to understand what we go through and won't be so quick to judge.

Serves 6, with meat left over for additional meals
- 5 pounds corned brisket of beef
- 6 peppercorns, or packaged pickling spices
- 3 carrots, peeled and quartered
- 3 onions, peeled and quartered
- 1 medium-sized green cabbage, quartered or cut in wedges
- Melted butter (about 4 tablespoons)
Place the corned beef in water to cover with the peppercorns or mixed pickling spices (in supermarkets, these often come packaged with the corned beef). Cover the pot or kettle, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 hours or until tender, skimming occasionally. During the last hour, add the carrots and onions and cover again. During the last 15 minutes, add the cabbage. Transfer meat and vegetables to a platter and brush the vegetables with the melted butter. Serve with boiled parsley potatoes, cooked separately. (The stock can be saved to add to a pot roast or stew instead of other liquid.)

Punishment: £5,000 fine. some £3,000 more than the City player who missed a drug's test!

Rio Ferdinand was informed in September 2003 that he was one of a handful of players who had been selected at random to complete a drugs test at the end of the training session. Rio left Carrington without doing the test but remembered later in the day. He returned to the training ground but he was told it was too late. The following day he went for an independent drugs test where the results came back negative.

Punishment: 8 month ban. £50,000 fine.
Are you telling me that forgetting a drugs test deserves two times the ban as beating the crap out of a team mate? Let's not forget, with his assault on another City teammate, Jamie Tandy, where he stubbed out a cigar in his face, as well as his assaults which have lead to jail time, Barton is a repeat violent offender. Yet the FA were far softer on him than Rio.

"I did not stuff the pork loin with the ham and cheese but I followed the rest of the recipe and it is amazing. The pork is juicy and tender and the sauce is wonderful. It also frees the oven up for rolls or other sides. I will definitely make this again. I will do the ham and cheese step next time once I buy the butcher string to tie it with. "

Jamaica Prepares For Marijuana Reform
Category: Culture | Posted on Fri, January, 30th 2015 by THCFinder
Even though there are a lot of people who think that marijuana is legal is Jamaica, the plant is still illegal. But now, Jamaica's Cabinet has approved a bill that is full of much-anticipated drug amendments. With these amendments would come the decriminalization of small amounts of marijuana as well as pave the way for medical marijuana on the island, the Justice Minister said on Wednesday.
Justice Minister Mark Golding said that he expects to introduce the legislation in the Senate by the end of this week, following the Cabinet's authorization. This bill, Golding said, would establish a cannabis licensing authority which would provide regulations needed in order to cultivate, distribute, and sell marijuana for medical and scientific purposes. "We need to position ourselves to take advantage of the significant economic opportunities offered by this emerging industry," Golding said.
For those in Jamaica, the passing of these amendments would allow possession of 2 ounces or less to be a ticketable offense. In addition, the ticket wouldn't be applied to the criminal record of the individual, therefore drastically cutting down those people who suffer with a nonviolent marijuana conviction on their records. Plus, the cultivation of the plant would be allowed as well, with up to five growing on a premises at a time. Rastafarians will also be able to legally use cannabis for religious purposes as well.
The island has spent many years debating on whether or not they should relax the laws on marijuana. But as many activists expected, the domino effect is occurring. As more states consider (and actually go through with) legalizing marijuana in some sense, others will follow suit. The profits that were made by Colorado and Washington were astounding and are leading many others to consider putting a system in in order to gain revenue from this wonderful plant.
Golding stressed that the government in Jamaica won't be relaxing it's stance on transitional drug trafficking. The island intends to use a portion of the revenues from its new licensing authority to support a public education campaign that is aimed to discourage the younger generations from using marijuana and to mitigate any public health consequences. The bill is expected to passed soon in Parliament, where the Prime Minister, Portia Simpson Miller's governing party holds a 2-to-1 majority.

Marijuana Arrests Drop 75% In New York City
Category: News | Posted on Fri, January, 30th 2015 by THCFinder
New York City had one of the most racially disparaging marijuana arrest rates in the country. That led to outcries from the marijuana reform movement and civil rights activists, which then led to New York City reforming its marijuana laws. What once resulted in an arrest now results in just a fine. The policy change has led to a significant decrease in marijuana arrests in New York City, which is good news for marijuana consumers and law enforcement alike. Per the Associated Press:
After a mid-November turn toward violations and summonses instead of misdemeanor arrests for carrying modest amounts of pot, such arrests plunged by 75 percent in December compared to last year, from about 1,820 to 460, according to state Division of Criminal Justice Services statistics obtained by The Associated Press. The November numbers fell 42 percent, from 2,200 to 1,280.
Even summonses have fallen by about 10 percent since the policy change, to 1,180, compared to the same period a year ago, New York Police Department figures show.
"Since the inception of our policy in 2014, marijuana enforcement activity is trending down in all categories" for the bottom-rung marijuana charge, Deputy Chief Kim Royster told the AP.
A drop in marijuana arrests is great news for New York City. Cops should be going after real criminals, not marijuana consumers. Jail beds should be reserved for violent criminals, not marijuana consumers. Law enforcement almost always opposes marijuana reform, despite the fact that it benefits them greatly. Something similar is going on in Philadelphia, where marijuana arrests have dropped 88% since marijuana decriminalization took effect there.

Oregon Medical Candy Overdose
Category: Culture | Posted on Fri, January, 30th 2015 by THCFinder
Edibles are slightly controversial in the sense that some people handle them differently than others and this may cause adverse side effects. While some patients can ingest many edibles and still function while being pain free, other people cannot handle the effect of eating cannabis and can sometimes have severe anxiety, along with other issues. There have been a few reports of people eating too many marijuana infused edibles, including one in Colorado where a young man jumped to his death from a hotel balcony after eating too many edibles. Now, a key lawmaker says that a marijuana overdose in Oregon shows that companies need to go slow on making cookies, candies, and other treats infused with marijuana available to public citizens.
"I don't think we are in a position to approve any kind of edibles right now," Sen. Ginny Burdick, a Portland Democrat who co-chairs a committee working on implementing the ballot measure approved last fall that legalized recreational weed. "We have to fire out a way to package them, label them, and make sure people understand the dosage." Burdick isn't willing to allow the sale of marijuana edibles until there is a plan laid out on how to control the potency and to keep the treats away from kids.
The incident occurred in Sunriver, Oregon, where police were called to a condo where a 37 year old woman from Washington was slumped on a bathroom floor, pale and barely breathing. She was numb from the shoulders down. Police Chief Marc Mills said that it was his first experience with a marijuana overdose and at first, he suspected that she had overdosed on something like heroin. But she had allegedly eaten three marijuana candies that were bought by a friend of hers at a shop in Washington, the police said. The candies were in a plastic, snap top container with no packaging indicating how to use them or what dose was in them.
Apparently, the woman stated that "they tasted pretty good and she had one, then had another, and had another, then all of a sudden, 'Oh not feeling so good'," Mills said. Medics at the scene treated the woman but she refused to go to the hospital. She and her friend later left for their home state of Washington. Officers confiscated the candy and cited the woman who bought it. Consuming edibles comes with a responsibility. Although candies do taste fairly good, eating multiple edibles at a time is never a good idea, no matter how much of a seasoned smoker you are. Eating marijuana will always effect people differently and it's important to let the candies or treats take effect before eating more.

Damon Albarn, who collected the Award For Innovation at the NME Awards 2014 with Austin, Texas last night (February 26), says Blur have recorded 15 new songs for a new album, but they won't see the light of day for years.
The award winner also says he would give an Innovation Award to Richard Russell, his collaborator on forthcoming solo album 'Everyday Robots' .
Earlier in the ceremony, held at London's O2 Brixton Academy, Albarn presented Paul McCartney with the Songwriter's Songwriter award.

Hi Folks,
Looking to get a tire gauge. I have a "plentitude" of "stick" gauges which start at 10PSI and aren't accurate for small tractor tires. Picked up a "Slime" dial gauge about a year and a half ago which was graduated from 0-60 PSI in equal increments, worked fine, but just noticed that it no longer works. There's a ton of electronic gauges for not much $$ but are they accurate? Also I'm curious about replacement cost of batteries, probably about twice what the gauge costs new-one of my "not favorite" things about batteries :-). Probably pick up another "Slime" as it did what I wanted and was probably $15. Just wondered what other folks use. Thanks for your time, Ev |
Follow-Up Postings:
Ex: Currently use a Auto Meter Tire Guage for low pressure (0-60 psi) applications . It was a little more expensive $33.00 at Walmart , but it has a Stainless stl. casing and stem . I have used numerous other Stick Guages for higher pressure applications from Sears and Canadian Tire normally around $12-$20 buck range . The Slime product for Quads and such should be adequate though . |
The one I like to use is actually a Centech digital gauge from Harbor Freight. It seems accurate com pared to my good shop gauge, but it displays the PSI to 10ths of a pound and would be more accurate than the big one in low pressures- say below 10 pounds. Actually, my big one stays on the wall. Just used the HF on volvo this afternoon when I did the fall maintenance. |

When putting together a resume, people will go to great lengths to disguise their limited achievements. Some will award themselves fancy titles to disguise the fact they make ball bearings or shuffle papers for a living. Others will exaggerate their experience and range of skills. Some will simply lie - it seems every hospital has its bogus doctor. Rachael Leigh Cook's resume has no need for such artifice, however, for her movie career alredy makes very impressive reading. At 20 years old, her filmography boats no fewer than 19 titles. It all started at age 11 when she decided modelling would be fun, "and it was." Before long, she was cast as the face of Milk-Bone dog biscuits, a fact that she would now choose to leave out of her life story: "Oh God, they just took them of the shelves a couple of years ago and I was like, "Make them go away!" I'd be trying to have a serious conversation with my accountant or somebody and they'd go, "Okay, so I was cruising the pet-foot aisle yesterday..."" But even an enduring association with Snoopy snacks couldn't dim the lights of this Minnesota-born beauty. Her modelling agency sent her to castings for commercials- not one of which she ever got. Then, by accident, they packed her off to an audition for a short film called 26 Summer Street. "Somehow I got the part. Maybe no one else showed up," she says. Her career was up and running. Her first full-length feature was The Baby-Sitters Club, and then she rattled through a long and varied array of independent movies, including Tom & Huck, Carpool, The Naked Man and Living Out Loud. But it wasn't until her role as geek-girl-turned-popularity-princess Laney Boggs in 1999 She's All That, that Rachael became recognized as one of the hottest young stars in Hollywood pantheon. This has brought her roles in four more films due to be released in this year: Texas Rangers, "a guys, guns and dust Western"; Blow Dry, "a tongue-in-cheek comedy"; Get Carter, "a dark whodunnit thriller" and Northanger Abbey, the only Jane Austen novel not yet filmed. By year's end, it's a safe bet that Rachael Leigh Cook will be a huge international star and household name. That's all in the future thought. For the inauguaral FHM cover shoot-which is astonishingly also Rachael's first cover-she shows up seeming anything but a star. Her dark tresses are hidden behind a red woolly hat that looks like a giant strawberry. "Are you sure it's me you want?" she asks. "I thought you must have meant Rachel Hunter, Rachel Griffith or Rachel from Friends."
Are you ready for superstardom? No, and I hope you guys are wrong-that would scare me to death, to be honest. It's nice that people want to call me and say, "Hey, we think you're cool", but I recently got a letter saying, "I saw you three years ago in Toronto. You were walking down Queen Street with a girl a couple of years older than you. You caught a cab and bumped your head getting in. You laughed and the two of you drove away." That happened; I remember that day! It's kind of scary to think someone's watching me and knows what I'm doing all the time. The more famous I get, the more of that kind of weirdness is there.
Your Get Carter co-star is Sylvester Stallone. What do you think about the allegation from Sly's staff and they were not allowed to look at him and had to back out at doorways? I don't think that's true at all. I think anybody will sue anybody these days. It's getting out of hand. There's something to be said for freedom of speech, but it's like, "Moderatin, people!"
And Sly didn't make you back out of anything? No, Sly is amazing. He can be a scary dude, but not to me. He always messes around. He loves to ad lib, and he has these two teeny cute little dogs named Jack and Jill, both boys, who go everywhere with him. He kept telling me, "You gotta be what you are", and that I should stick to romantic comedies. He kept saying, "People never get sick of seeing the same thing. If they love it, they'll watch it again and again and again." I told him I couldn't just keep doing the same thing.
R&B star Usher was in She's All That with you. Did he show you to your seat? No, he did not. Although, come to think of it, in a way he did. We took a private plane back to LA from Calgary together. They'd told us it was a Learjet, and then we get there and the smallest plane in the free world is in front of me. Me, Usher, his assistant-slash-bodyguard and two pilots are meant to be getting in this teeny little plane the size of a coffee table. And I suddenly think, "Excuse me? You want me to get in a private plane with a musician. Are you nuts?" I was scared out of my mind, but he was very cool and got me through the flight.
Your get-it-all-together scene with Freddie Prince Jr. in She's All That was voted "the sexiest love scene" of 1999. Was it sexy to shoot? No, it wasn't. That's so hilarious to me. I've known Freddie for four years, and his girlfriend was on set that day. We're all actors and know you gotta do what you gotta do, but it did feel a little strange, and no, not really that sexy. It's a great scene. I mean, I know it's me and everything, but I still get sucked into the story and think "Oh they got together!"
Have you gone beyond the necking stage and done full-on sex in a movie yet? No, and I think I'll sort of see what comes up. I am not the sort of a person to say never, because you'll inevitably find yourself in a prison where your mindset changes or the opportunity is too good to pass up.
Do you have a policy on how much flesh you'll show? You won't catch me taking my clothes off; I get cold easily. I have no problem with actors getting naked in movies, but taking my clothes off makes me uncomfortable. I'm very shy. I won't do nudity, and no body-doubling to make it look like it's me. Although I did a Dawson's Creek episode and I was supposed to be a nude model, so I just pulled the sleeve of my T-Shirt over my shoulder and they used another girl's back. But that's as far it goes.
You starred in a film called The Hairy Bird. Do you wax or shave? I'm lazy and don't like to shave with a razor. I have a good electric razor, although I do tend to get a bit carried away sometimes. I buzzed all the hair off my arm the other week. That was a bad idea.
Apparently "hairy bird" is 1960s private school slang for male genitalia. What's your favourite name for a man's wedding tackle? They actually changed the name of the film in the end to Strike, which is too bad; I liked The Hairy Bird. Can't say I do have a favourite word for, um, those parts. I usually just sort of hedge my way around it until somebody else says the word. I'm shy! I'm a nice girl!
In this issue of FHM we have a feature on body hair. Is there any part of a man you don't think should be covered by hair? You know what freaks me out? When you see the shaved back of the hand and wrist, and there's that thick line of hair starting up the arm somewhere. Ugh!
You went out with an actor named Rider Strong. Is that his real name? Yes. I kind of sounds like a porn name, doesn't it? His whole family has great names. His dad's name is King Strong.
Are you seeing anyone at the moment? No, I broke up with my boyfriend in the middle of August, and this is the longest time I've been single. I met a really nice guy when I was working on Blow Dry in England, but he was a bit older and was looking to buy, you know? I'm looking for a rental, maybe a lease if it passes the 12-point inspection and has a good warranty package. I always meet "commitment guy", I don't know why. I'm not a commitment-phobe or anything, but don't ask me to settle down at 20. Are you nuts?
What do you look for in a man? Three things: smart, cute, funny. I strive for all three, but any combinations of two will suffice. Someone becomes cute if they're funny. And if you're smart and cute, you probably have some funny potential.
And what don't you like in a guy? I don't like guys who are really nice, but you notice that all their friends are girls. Why don't they have friends that are guys? I like guys who hang out with guys. I don't like guys that are pretty; that's kind of annoying. It's like, "Go away, you're prettier than me, I hate you." And I don't trust any man who a) has a bubble perm; b) has more shoes than me; or c) raises his arm over his head when he dances.
You did a famous PSA spot warning against drug addiction. What's the closest you've gotten to Grade-A drugs? If someone offers me coke at a party, I assume it's carbonated, but there's a lot of drugs in LA, man. It's so crazy. I thought it was an '80s thing, and that it was over, like, 10 years ago and only the odd stray rat-packer did it, but it's back and it's scary. I haven't been tempted by it at all. I'm not an angel by any means, but wise up.
So you're only 20. Do you have a fake ID? I used to have one, just like a little souvenir thing I got in Ontario, Canada. I didn't even want to go drinking, honestly. I just wanted to get into this club to go dancing and the bouncer took a look at my ID, took a look at me, took a look at it, held it up and said, "This one is pretty good," to the whole line. I was like, "Oh shit, I'll be leaving now." It was pretty embarrassing.
There's a Minneapolis rock band named in your honour - Budding Hollywood Starlet. Did they want you to be their groupie? No, and I'd never hang around backstage for anybody like that. Actually, I've never seen them play and I don't know what their music's like.
You're from Minneapolis. Did you ever bump into the Artist Formerly Known As Prince? The closest I ever got to seeing Prince was this substitute teacher we had in fourth grade who was Prince's limo driver on the side. We thought he was pretty cool. He'd driven Prince a couple of times, and that was the closest I'd come to meeting a celebrity.
How many of the 10,000 lakes in Minnesota have you skinny-dipped in? That would be a big zero, but actually there are 12,000. I think they've upgraded a lot of ponds to lakes. We never went skinny-dipping; I went to public school, but it wasn't like that. We had a polar bear's club at camp, but we were never naked.
One of you favourite films is The Breakfast Club. If they were doing a remake, who would you be in it? They should never do that! I mean, what's next, Citizen Kane? My God! That would be so wrong. But if I had to, I would want to play the Ally Sheedy character, and we could put Kid Rock in it. He could be the Judd Nelson part.
And finally, you really love eating at the International House of Pancakes. Have you ever had the Rooty Tooty Fresh'N Fruity? Don't get me started on that. I love that place; it's like my mecca. You get four different kinds of syrup and the fruity thing is, oh, just so exciting. I want to go right now.

January 13, 2014 in Fashion philosophy, Questioning rules, Seeking advice
Is it true that age places a huge restriction on what is appropriate fashion? The linked article suggests that types of clothing to accessories have a "retirement age". I'm not convinced. Doesn't it really depend on the person's appearance, and more importantly, their audacity to be themselves?

Geary Stool/Table Red (53003551) |

We really like the unique look of the Geary stools. Or, the Geary tables. Either way you use them, the petite Geary stools combine a raw steel frame with a distressed wood seat in your choice of six colors. The seat (or top) is 14" in diameter, the seat/top height is 20", which makes them perfect "extra" seating at a dining table or great end or lamp tables.

Watching the nocturnal display of the Great Snipe belongs to the most outstanding experiences I ever had as a nature photographer. These birds are amazing. The males gather on certain places of the lek, mostly little mounds or tussocks, by late evening. They ruffle their feathers, blow up their breasts and start calling and singing with so many different sounds and melodies, from clicking like a table tennis ball to the complex song of a songbird. Absolutely unique! Unfortunately this spectacle on the Tundra can be experienced less and less often, because the population of this little wader is heavily decreasing in recent years.

MD/PhD Program Courses
We offer a curriculum which integrates clinical training with research through the following MD/PhD specific courses:
- Throughout the course of training, MD/PhD students will take "MD/PhD Grand Rounds: Integrating Clinical Care and the Study of Disease." This course provides a formalized structure for the integration of the medical and graduate components of the MD/PhD training through an individual clinical experience followed by a presentation and discussion involving fellow students.
- During the second year of Medical School, these students also take a course titled Research Design for Physician Scientists. This course teaches the skills needed to prepare a competitive grant application.
Rene Choi
"Upstate's MD/PhD program does a great job bridging the gap between medical bench-side research and clinical application," said Rene Choi, whose research involves developing treatments for retinal diseases. "During our PhD years, we're required every semester to complete a clinical clerkship, where we shadow a physician of our choosing for eight hours a month. I shadowed a retinal surgeon. It was extremely beneficial to understand the disease process from a clinical point of view. I got to watch surgeries in the OR and see how the physician interacts with patients."

Well written and simple to understand. The country I live in for many years run large and persistent account deficits and that was a clear sign that the money were spent in order to serve the "clientelle" of the giant state. The political system was borrowing more and more just to continue its existance.
My only objection is that the academia came up with the deficits and borrowing problems only since this became obvious.

Sony confirms LittleBigPlanet Karting
Non-formal announcement made on Twitter; publisher promises to share more info soon.
Sony has confirmed the existence of a new project in the LittleBigPlanet franchise, although not giving out details on the game, the company revealed via Twitter that it's a racing spin-off game currently in development titled LittleBigPlanet Karting.
"Update: We can confirm that LittleBigPlanet Karting is in fact in development and we look forward to sharing more on the game soon!" tweeted the Sony Twitter account.
It is believed that critically acclaimed developer United Front, the studio best known for creating ModNation Racers, is currently onboard working on the new game. Also internet chatters suggest that the game will be Move and 3D compatible, which shouldn't be surprising knowing that the majority of Sony's first-party titles make use of both features.
