I'm probably one of the last people on Earth to get a blog. My wife has one, my kids have them, my friends and business partners have them, and even my business competition have them. I feel like I'm literally the last one to get a blog.
So my name is Scott and I live in Naples, Florida. It's nice here, usually stays sunny and warm all year long. We do get a few cold days in January but it's not too bad. I did get ice on my window last week in the morning but that was the last cold day we were supposed to have I think, now it's back to the warm weather and sunshine.
One of the reasons I decided to finally get a blog is to not only blog, but to try and get some awareness for my company. I'm a small business owner(Bonita Window Treatments) and things are hard right now, everyone is keeping closer tabs on where they spend money. A couple years ago in South West Florida it was like a total free-for-all. People had so much money they didn't even think before spending it. Now it's not like that, people are losing their homes and losing their jobs.
So that's it for now, I'll post more soon. I just wanted to make my introduction post and get warmed up. Now I need to find something interesting to post about.
Well, it seems at least some one has listened to my web structure ideas. I would have to go back to my records to find out just when I first posted The National Online Party, but it has been up for well over a year now. It seems Ron Paul's Campaign For Liberty is following my precinct structure suggestion. So it would be rather easy for the Republican Party to adopt such a web structure, if they actually intend to have a 21st Century web-structure presence.
However, considerable more coding would have to be undertaken to get the deliberative groupware and inter-party networking processes working together, but the basics are there to start collecting precinct leaders from the party's various SNSs efforts, hopefully
ex animo
In the past, I've mentioned how I'd love to see more creative conservative material on the web and on the streets - more graffiti-style posters, more stickers, more videos, more parody sites etc.
I think the nomination of Sarah Palin gives us plenty of new material for this sort of thing, so I thought I'd get the ball rolling with a simple halftone, comics-style graphic. Use it, modify it and circulate as you'd like.
And feel free to post your own stuff in the comments. Download the full-res here.
Everyone should know more about stuff like Yahoo Pipes. I use it to get my content out in new and innovative waysTM and also to get content out of static sites into an easily digested RSS format. Craig has been a real pioneer in showing the way. -Patrick
I've been thinking that if we create RSS feeds and websites that focus on specific aspects of the conservative movement, we might be able to unite and mobilize better.
For example, I've used Yahoo Pipes and other web services to create an RSS feed that pulls together the YouTube videos of the Cato Institute, The Club for Growth, Friends of Americans for Tax Reform, ReasonTV and the Tax Foundation. I'm hoping that supporters of one organization may find the messages of the others interesting – uniting the fiscally conservative community on the web a bit further.
I also used the feed to create a self-updating webpage which I've embedded in a offensively basic, crude, caveman-esque framed webpage I called the Limited Government Network
Recently put together a list of Republican candidate web sites at LocalRepublicans.net. Here's a hat tip to a few of the best...
Chris Lien - ChrisLienforCongress.com
Chris Shays - Shays2008.com
Elizabeth Dole - ElizabethDole.org
Gordon Smith - GordonSmith.com
Tim Murphy - ElectTimMurphy.com
Do you agree? You can vote for your favorite at LocalRepublicans.
This is a great call to action. -Patrick
For too long, we've conceded the creative, clever and artistic to liberal causes both on the web and on the street. Can someone tell me why? The left has used graphics and video to affect public opinions, generate earned media and most importantly raise funds. Need a recent example? Take a look at Shepard Fairey's Obama posters.
Perhaps it's just me, but it feels like the conservative movement on the web is reaching a tipping point. We've got this shiny new blog here and some renewed vigor as the elections approach. But we're still lacking is the Do It Yourself, street campaign mentality.

Who Knew? Swearing Can Be Good For You!
That curse word that you blurt out when you hurt yourself may be more than just using bad language. A recent English study suggests that swearing after an injury actually helps you handle the pain. That just might explain why swearing has survived so long. For an in-depth look at cursing, read Expletive Deleted: A Good Look At a Bad Language by Ruth Wajnryb.

Steve grew up vacationing on Lake Leelanau for 3 weeks every summer just down the road from this home. Several of our uncles/aunts also rented cottages and it brought about wonderful memories or the Lake; playing with cousins; experiencing all the wonders of the Lake and the surrounding area. When I had the opportunity to purchase a vacation home, this was the ONLY location I wanted. Still to this day I am amazed about the beauty of Leelanau County!

The location is within 1/3 mile of where my family vacationed every year. For me, this was the only place to be. The lake bottom is beautiful sugar sand for 170 feet to the dropoff.

Young's Literal Translation (YLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet hath spoken unto Baruch son of Neriah, in his writing these words on a book from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying: | 1 This is what Jeremiah the prophet told Baruch son of Neriah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, after Baruch had written on a scroll the words Jeremiah was then dictating: |
2 `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning thee, O Baruch: | 2 "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch: |
3 `Thou hast said, Wo to me, now, for Jehovah hath added sorrow to my pain, I have been wearied with my sighing, and rest I have not found. | 3 You said, 'Woe to me! The LORD has added sorrow to my pain; I am worn out with groaning and find no rest.' " |
4 Thus dost thou say unto him: Thus said Jehovah: Lo, that which I have built I am throwing down, and that which I have planted I am plucking up, even the whole land itself. | 4 [The LORD said,] "Say this to him: 'This is what the LORD says: I will overthrow what I have built and uproot what I have planted, throughout the land. |
5 And thou -- thou seekest for thee great things -- do not seek, for lo, I am bringing in evil on all flesh -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- and I have given to thee thy life for a spoil, in all places whither thou goest.' | 5 Should you then seek great things for yourself ? Seek them not. For I will bring disaster on all people, declares the LORD, but wherever you go I will let you escape with your life.' " |

TGS has commenced a new 15,000-km multiclient 2D seismic survey offshore Namibia. The survey grid covers open acreage and images the main prospective plays due for drilling in 2011/2012. Offshore Namibia is significantly underexplored and has the potential to hold large oil and gas discoveries. The mix of play types in the TGS survey area include basin floor turbidites, slope fans and channels, significant syn-rift structures and plays similar to those offshore Angola. Recent studies have also shown additional strong hydrocarbon indicators in significant structures. The seismic data is being acquired by the M/V Northern Explorer.

text: If you're looking for a good summary of the musical landscape over the last year, at least from an indie-centric but pop-loving point of view, you could do a lot worse than Matthew Perpetua's Fluxblog 2011 Survey mix: 183 songs, almost 13 hours, and it hits just about every high point you can think of. Some of the choices are questionable, of course, and like most indie-centric mixes it's a little weak on rap and even weaker on country, picking the most obvious names from each, but for the most part it's a solid, worthwhile overview. Just listening to the first CD I've discovered a gem that I'd somehow missed: Britney Spears's "How I Roll", a perfect piece of modernized girl group fluff.

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 Butchie Jr!
Facts about Butchie Jr
- Breed: American Bulldog/American Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Color: White - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Butchie Jr's Info...
This is "Butchie Jr.", one of four boys from the Outlaw Litter. He is a great little guy. He is smart, loving and silly. He is 6 weeks old and is an American Bulldog/lab/pittie mix. Butchie Sr. was rescued by Chained Inc.
Other Pets at P.O.E.T. Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Butchie Jr, a Garden City American Bulldog/American Pit Bull Terrier puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Bulldog/American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Garden City, or seeking a American Bulldog/American Pit Bull Terrier puppy from a breeder in Garden City.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Garden City 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 Garden City 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 American Bulldog/American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Bulldog/American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Garden City paves the way for another one to be saved.

I have my eyes on buying a house, but it has the problem of the carport flooding a little bit in the front from the runoff from the street. The house itself is not a problem since it is about 1-1/2' higher. Probably all that is needed is for there to be an about 2" or so of extra concrete on top of the current pavement.
Is this something that can be done relatively easily? Or would I have to get the whole carport pavement removed and do the carport from scratch? The driveway itself is also low, and all I am going to do there is just rip up the old driveway (which is all cracked and beat up anyway) and put in a little fill. I don't even plan to park in the driveway except maybe when I would be going away for a long time. |
Follow-Up Postings:
how far away is the carport from house? if carport is under water, is there water in basement? nothing worse than a wet basement. but you dig a hole in the ground and put in a basement and it always wants to fill up with water. |

Cash Reward Offered to Solve Crime of the Week
POSTED: Friday, May 11, 2012 - 11:28am
UPDATED: Friday, May 11, 2012 - 11:46am
Man Brutally Beaten at Circle K Parking Lot
EL PASO — A man was allegedly assaulted by three suspects at the Circle K parking lot that left him with a severe laceration to his face.
Two of the suspects were inside the store when the victim was at the register. One of them tried talking to him but the victim chose to ignore them, and they both walked out of the store and into a whote SUV. Upon stepping out, the victim was again approached by the two suspects and a third followed shortly thereafter. All three brutally beat the victim, splattering blood all over the scene. One man stayed inside the SUV.
One of the suspects who spoke to the victim inside the store is described as a Hispanic male in his early 30's, about 5'8" inches tall, with short hair, black long-sleeve shirt over a blank tank top, with dark pants and shoes. He was wearing a gold necklace. The second suspect, also Hispanic, appears to be older, shorter and heavier. He was wearing a white short-sleeve shirt over a white tank top, dark pants and brown shoes. The third suspect is only described as a male.
If you have any information at all about the identity of the suspects and their location, contact Crime Stoppers of El Paso at 566-TIPS (566-8477), on-line at www.crimestoppersofelpaso.org or you can text CRIMES (274637) and enter the key word CRIME1 (no space). You will remain anonymous and, if your tip leads to an arrest, you can qualify for a cash reward.

Hello and welcome back to the financial world of the Dogpound. Some years ago I changed jobs, moved and built a new house, while at the same time I put my other house for sale. This was six years ago and the house still has not sold. Yes, six long years carrying two mortgages…my aching billfold. Anyway, good news is that I finally have a contract on the house but it has not been easy. The first hurdle was the appraisal that came back almost $9,000 under the buyer's offering. Now that was a big shock, but we were able to get all the parties to agree to a new arrangement and were back on our way for a closing at the end of the month. Then I get the second shock; a few days before the stated closing I get an email from my Realtor asking for a week's extension on the contract. Why extend the closing date? Every extra day could lead to some other reason to drop from the sky that could stop the sale all together. My Realtor told me that the bank lost a bunch of files – three days worth – and they just now found them…so they needed the extra time to put the package back together. Now, how do you lose three days of files? That answer is unknown, but for the next seven days I will definitely be rubbing my rabbit's foot overtime. And I know the rabbit will be very happy when this is all over and done with…he is getting quite the rug burn. LOL
"It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter."
– Marlene Dietrich
My husband and I had just finished tucking our five young ones into bed one evening when we heard sobbing coming from three-year-old Billy's room. Rushing to his side, we found him crying hysterically. He had accidentally swallowed a penny and was sure he was going to die. No amount of talking could change his mind. Desperate to calm him, my husband palmed a penny that he happened to have in his pocket and pretended to pull it from Billy's ear. Billy was delighted. In a flash, he snatched it from my husband's hand, swallowed it and demanded cheerfully, "Do it again, Dad!"
"Next," the conference emcee announced, "we have the chief of the Minnesota State Patrol, Roger Ledding, who is here with his lovely wife, Beverly." The chief took his place at the lectern. "I'm a little nervous," he began, "getting up before this distinguished audience and speaking today. But not nearly as nervous as I will be tonight when I must go home with my wife, Audrey, and explain Beverly to her!"
That is a wrap. As always be good, play safe and remember rabbits have feelings, too.

Either I take off the morn and surf from 6ish until its too high or split at 12 and surf the dropping tide. What do you think will be better? I always lean towards aft so when im done i go home instead of to work, but im not sure about this one since its looking like it will drop quick however the high tide might not break....thoughts?

Llandaff Cathedral music cuts
7 January 2014
Just five days before Christmas, Llandaff Cathedral carried out its threat to make five professional part-time lay clerks, a part-time choral scholar and the assistant organist redundant, in order to save £45,000 of a projected budget deficit of £80,000.
Chilcott writes memorial carol
12 December 2013
Composer Bob Chilcott has written a carol in memory of church organist Alan Greaves from Sheffield who was murdered last Christmas while on his way to Midnight mass.
Chilcott has generously allowed Oxford University Press to make the sheet music available free of charge.
OUP has been inundated with requests to perform it this Christmas and has made Chilcott's carol available to download from the OUP website.
9 December 2013
Llandaff Cathedral Choir
Following the Incorporated Society of Musicians' decision to go public in condemnation of Llandaff Cathedral's plans to sack all the adult members of its Choir due to a budget deficit, it has now reported that an extension to the period of consultation for those at risk of redundancy has been granted. Choir members were originally told they might be made redundant as soon as 6 December 2013.
The Cathedral had proposed to slim down the Choir in order to save nearly £50,000 against an anticipated deficit of £81,000. Seven men – five lay clerks, one choral scholar and the assistant organist – are at risk of redundancy and will be invited to take part in consultation meetings over the next few weeks. The move provoked outraged reactions from former choristers and the Friends of Cathedral Music, which had awarded substantial grants to the Cathedral in the past, and which had not ruled out further financial support in the future.
A spokesman said, 'It is proposed that a budget be kept to pay adult choristers on an occasional basis for weekend services and special seasons, such as Advent and Christmas, to sing with the boy choristers in order to keep a choral tradition in the cathedral.'
The ISM, the professional body for musicians, led a campaign in response to the plans. Head of legal affairs, David Abrahams, told C&O, 'This is great news. The ISM has been calling for an extension to the consultation period and this now gives the Chapter more time to consider the alternatives to redundancy as put forward by the ISM and others.'

Fugue State Films' DVD on the historic organs in Alkmaar, the Netherlands, has won the prestigious Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik (German Record Critics' Prize), one of the most respected and important German prizes, with an independent jury of high-class journalists.
Alkmaar – The Organs of the Laurenskerk celebrates the world-renowned Van Hagerbeer/Schnitger and Van Covelens organs of the Dutch town, introduced by the church's two organists, Pieter van Dijk and Frank van Wijk, alongside cameos of the instruments in Leiden's Pieterskerk and Amsterdam's Nieuwe Kerk. Our reviewer described it as a 'unique collection [that will] reward many hours of watchcing and listening.'
The award marks a second win for Fugue State Films, whose previous DVD collection, The Organs of Cavaillé-Coll, also received the prize. www.fuguestatefilms.co.uk

Tagged: MMO
As many of you know, I was a huge fan of the Jaina Proudmoore: Tides of War novel by Christie Golden. Unsurprisingly the events in that book and seemingly the following title Vol'jin Shadows of the Horde (I haven't read it yet but it does seem to fit the current WoW story) fit into actual World of Warcraft lore.
Odds are if you're reading this, you're already a big WoW fan anyway, but if you've been out of the game for awhile the info below may contain spoilers. Or if nothing else, a good glipse at the future of Azeroth. (more…)

For many gamers, one of the most alluring aspects of online gaming is the opportunity to bond with other people. Whether their interest lies in player-vs.-player fighting, roleplaying or end game raid content, being able to share those interests with other like-minded players is what keeps them engaged and interested. (more…)
Posted in: PC Tags: Editorial, Guillds, MMO, Old Timers Guild, Online CommunitiesIt was quite a wait over the weekend for gamers to get back to Cryptic's Neverwinter MMO open beta, but players didn't go home empty handed. All characters created before 6:00am Tuesday, May 21, 2013 recieved a "Caturday Survivor's Pack" full of in game goodies via Neverwinter's mail system. (more…)
Posted in: PC Tags: Cryptic, MMO, Neverwinter, PCUPDATE: It has been announced that there will be a roll back. Progress made between 5:20 AM and 12:20 PM Pacific Time will be lost to all players. The Neverwinter team does apologize for this and plans to send players a gift for this issue.
In unfortunate news today, Neverwinter has hit it's first big snag. Due to an exploit it seems the astral diamond exchange and the auction house were taken offline. Currently the 'shard' servers for the game are all offline.
This is a big problem to the legitimacy of the game since astral diamonds, one of the games currencies, can not only be used to buy items in the auction house, but also can be exchanged for "Zen". Zen is the games currency players can purchase for real money. So not only would an exploit allow for purchasing of all auction house goodies, but all zen based purchases as well. (more…)
Posted in: PC Tags: Astral Diamonds, Cryptic, MMO, NeverwinterTrion Worlds, creator of Defiance, have announced the first details on DLC for their epic MMO Sci-fi shooter. For the Season Pass holders, you should know the deal by now, you will get 5 DLCs at a reduced price. But the question always remains: Is that content going to be good enough to warrant my purchase of the Season Pass?
Well, I know this is just the first DLC but it looks like Trion Worlds will be doing everyone justice. Not only for the Season Pass holders, but there will also be free DLC so that it won't isolate friends from playing with each other regardless of what content each other have. Which is a good thing seeing how Defiance has now surpassed over 1 million registered users and I'm quite sure that many of them are waiting it out to see what kind of DLC we will get from the Season Pass. (more…)
Posted in: Microsoft, PC, Sony Tags: Defiance, Defiance DLC, MMO, Trion WorldsI really wish I'd gotten on the Neverwinter wagon sooner with the wealth of content out there now. It's been awhile since I've been this eager for a title to be released and it just keeps getting better. On the games official YouTube channel, there are several videos that highlight the games various zones or areas. The latest, Rothé Valley, focuses on a town taken over by Drow and even seems to carry over into the Underdark! Read onfor the video and check out their official youtube channel for much more! (more…)
Posted in: PC Tags: Cryptic, D&D, MMO, Neverwinter, Perfect World, Rothé ValleyThis being the fourth Beta weekend for Neverwinter right now I've been eager to get back into the game. I enjoyed the third beta weekend. During the week I did some homework getting to know Cryptic's Star Trek Online so I could relate between the two games. The two do have their similarities but they are their own games as well. If you haven't tried out Star Trek yet and you are a fan of the franchise I do recommend it. Even just to see the sights, it's a fun trip.
One thing I didn't get to try in Neverwinter was the Foundry. It turns out Star Trek Online even had a Foundry for gamers to create their own adventures. I've tried a couple Star Trek missions recently and I played some Neverwinter quests and both games have been quite enjoyable. Unfortunately I haven't gotten in to the creation tool myself yet so the magic hasn't been spoiled for me, but the system does seem to allow for quite a bit of story telling. (more…)
Posted in: PC Tags: Cryptic, D&D, MMO, Neverwinter, Perfect WorldThe new free to play Neverwinter MMO let beta testers give the game a whirl a few weekends back and I was lucky enough to get to be a part of the action. Unfortunately, I haven't tried their Star Trek MMO, but after enjoying my time in the Forgotten Realms I do plan to see what the game based on Paramount's franchise is like as well. (more…)
Posted in: PC Tags: Cryptic, D&D, Dungeons and Dragons, MMO, Neverwinter, Perfect World, RPGLike many MMO's lately, Star Wars: The Old Republic is adding a limited free account to the subscription based game. Some content is restricted or closed off entirely, but if you're eager to see what The Old Republic is all about, this is a great way to give in a whirl.
Many see this as a step back but I think it's a fantastic idea. I liked the look of SW:TOR when my MMO gaming friend got into it, but I just couldn't justify the cost. This way you can personally get in there and see what the game has to offer and if it's right for you. Are these the droids your looking for? Find out November 15th! Less than one week away.
Posted in: PC Tags: EA, F2P, MMO, star wars, SW:TOR, the old republicMany fans were concerned when the first images of The Elder Scrolls Online were released. It looked and sort of felt more like Warcraft than The Elder Scrolls. I havn't kept up much on the project since then and the gameplay video recently released really stands out as looking much more like the art style we've come to expect from the series.
It really is surprising considering at times it feels more like you're watching Skyrim third person action rather than the MMO fans were unsure about. This is really something to check out and there are quite a few details released in this developers diary video below. Just for the basics it looks like all of Tamriel is accessable however Cyrodiil (the area from Oblivion) is contested and the location of the games PVP combat.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

India, Pakistan should find solution to Kashmir issue: Geelani
Srinagar , Thu, 28 Apr 2011 ANI=20
Srinagar, Apr 28 (ANI): Separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani has said In=
dia and Pakistan should find a solution to the Kashmir issue keeping in min=
d the interest of those people who want freedom for the state.
Speaking to reporters after a meeting with Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) Presid=
ent Ram Vilas Paswan here on Wednesday, Geelani said he was ready to have d=
iscussion with the government.
"We don't say no to any talks or discussion, but what we want is that the p=
eace talks that will happen should be with everyone's consensus and opinion=
s. Pakistan, India and Jammu and Kashmir are involved in the debate of the =
freedom of the state and that is the foundation of every person in the stat=
e," he added.
Geelani had also insisted on his five-point formula to the state government=
to accept it and resolve the Kashmir dispute.
Paswan, who is on an official tour to the state, said there should be talks=
between the central government and the separatist leader instead of interl=
ocutors organising talks with others.
"The government set up a group of interlocutors and now who are these three=
interlocutors talking to? The people who are here, those who prepare the c=
alendar like Geelani, so the factors that the government has to talk to the=
m. But, if you don't talk to them then there is no use of having talks like=
the interlocutors are having," he said.
Claiming that Geelani holds sway over a large population in Kashmir, Paswan=
said any dialogue process without him would be a futile exercise.=20
"Geelani has raised five points. Whether or not Kashmir is a disputed place=
can be discussed later. First, the government should talk about four other=
points," he said.
Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh had appointed a three-member panel compri=

2011-04-28 16:50:00=20=20
India has rejected U.S. firms for an $11 billion fighter jet contract, shor=

with the United States while broadening its strategic ties with other regi=
The rejection comes despite lobbying from President Barack Obama during a h=

The U.S. embassy in India declined to comment if Timothy Roemer's resignati=

Roemer said in a separate statement on India's decision: "We are...deeply d=

Relations between the two democracies have been on the rise after the end o=
f the Cold war, when India was seen as closer to the Soviet Union.
The two nations signed a landmark civil nuclear cooperation deal in 2007 an=

Obama, meanwhile, has been walking a diplomatic tightrope, on the one hand =

India also ruled out Sweden's Saab JAS-39 and Russia's MiG-35, departing fr=

The contest now sets up a showdown between two multi-role European fighters=

The order has been keenly contested by global defence firms and has seen lo=
bbying from leaders like Britain's David Cameron, France's Nicholas Sarkozy=
and Russia's Dmitry Medvedev.
"To the extent that it has come down to the Rafale or Typhoon, the European=
s have, in a sense, won. India is balancing its international relationships=
," said Howard Wheeldon, senior strategist at BGC Partners in London.
A New Delhi-based spokeswoman for Lockheed said it was told by U.S. authori=

on the competition.
Saab, in a statement from Sweden, said its plane was not shortlisted for th=

Dassault and Eurofighter declined comment.
India is the world's largest arms importer, accounting for 9 percent of the=
global arms trade between 2006 and 2010, according to data from Swedish th=

Its defence budget for the year to March 2011 rose 11.6 percent to $36.28 b=

Jhala Nath Khanal, prime minister of Nepal, opened the conference with a sp=

"At the same time, delay in procurement has seriously hampered the developm=

According to the World Bank, which is behind the forum, the plan is to crea=

The size of the pic is fine til I load it to photobucket, then it comes out small when I post it.... |
Maybe you're grabbing the URL of the thumbnail, instead of the URL of the full-size image? I use Photobucket, and I have to say, I'm not sure how you're doing this, since my images always come out the size I made them. The only other thing I can imagine is that the image really IS that small, and is getting stretched out only to make it look larger on the screen. It is a difference of screen resolution (72 dpi) vs. the actual number of pixels in the raw image. If you don't know what that means, the RESOLUTION of the image might be the problem. If you want, e-mail me one of your images. (I will just hope it's less than 1 MB! I'm on dial up.) Then I can tell you exactly what is going on with your original image. |

I load the pic right off my digital,then donload to photobucket. For Gardenweb I always use the HTML option as its all that works. I never had a problem, but i am really confused, as some people said the picture was huge on their screen,,on others it was real small. I thought we all basically saw the same thing ,with a variance in screen resolution,but now Im all confused! |
I sometimes have problem with photobucket too. Rosa |
If you send the image right from your camera directly to the image hosting site without checking its size first, then it very well could end up huge. It depends on the number of pixels in the original image. There is a learning curve. It helps to have an image editing program to check the file size, crop and downsize if necessary. |
- Posted by caroline1947 (My Page) on Thu, Jul 26, 07 at 11:56
Thank you Mary,,,I have programs to size them but i have no clue how. I have tried, but I dont know about pixels and all that. I have always just downloaded them from my camrea and no one mentioned if they were too big or too small,until this time. I give up on re sizing and editing,until someone can show me. I follow the directions and it just dont work for me. |

Ritzy Chicken Nuggets Ingredients 2 Boneless chicken breasts 1 cup buttermilk 1 3/4 cups cracker crumbs (recommended: Ritz crackers) Directions Put the chicken breasts one at a time into a freezer bag so that it lies flat. Bash with a rolling pin until the chicken is quite thin, and then take it out and slice into about 6 to 8 slices. Repeat with the other chicken breast. This is easiest done with scissors. Put the slices into a freezer bag with the buttermilk and leave in the refrigerator to marinade for up to 2 days. When you are ready to cook them, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Tip the cracker crumbs into a wide shallow bowl, and then shake off the excess buttermilk from the nuggets and dip them in the crumbs. Coat them well before lying gently in the greased pan. and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. They can also be frozen once marinated and crumbed. If cooking from frozen, add 5 minutes to the oven cooking time. Serves: 12 to 16 nuggets, to serve 3 to 4 children, or 2 adults Honey Mustard Dressing: Makes: 1/2 cup You will need: 1/2 cup mayo 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic 1 tablespoon vinegar 2 tablespoons honey salt and pepper to taste Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl.
