SURI: PDS leader Samir Putatunda on Monday met chief minister Mamata Banerjee and sought the government's intervention to ensure that villagers in Birbhum's Khayrasole received just compensation for the land they had given up for the DVC-Emta coal mining project. Officials of the joint venture company, meanwhile, accused the district administration of failing to control a law and order situation.
The Krishi Jami Raksha Committee (KJRC), under whose banner the villagers are demanding better payout and jobs, captured an excavator of the company two months ago. DVC-Emta had brought it to begin excavating coal. Sensing trouble, the firm later removed all other equipment including high-tech machines from the site.
DVC-EMTA was set up in 2006 to excavate coal from Loba village panchayat area. Unable to get acquired land, the firm went in for direct purchase. However, things did not move for years due to disagreement on compensation by KJRC that was then backed by Trinamool and CPM. Finally, DVC-Emta reached an agreement last October in the presence of district administration and local leaders of both parties.
Thereafter, the firm purchased 750 acre. But it has not been able to excavate coal as the plots are not contiguous. A section of villagers have held on to their land, demanding more money and jobs. Patatunda's PDS then stepped in to back KJRC.
Putatunda has since visited the area several times. Jaydeep Mazumdar, secretary, Krishi Jami Raksha Samiti (KJRS) said: "We are not against mining. But where shall the residents of 12 villages go if proper compensation is not given? We are being cheated. Some discussions may have taken place but we know nothing on this. We want the right price of land and have our hopes pinned on Patatunda."
However, DVC-Emta director Nimai Chandra Mukherjee has refused to negotiate with either KJRS or PDS, saying the price-three-four times that of ordinary plots in the area-was fixed in the presence of all stakeholders.
"What is the locus standi of Jaideep Mazumdar that the company should negotiate with him? The instigated villagers have grabbed an expensive machine. What right do they have to do this? We have told the administration that it is a law and order problem but there is no action. It's a failure on the part of the administration," Mukherjee added.

It really shouldn't be that big of a deal. But it is. The speaker on my phone went out. So what. Big deal. Right? I can just get another phone. Only, I am having a major struggle with it. I REALLY don't want a new phone because it means losing another part of Laney.
I have an app on my phone that allowed me to talk back and forth with Laney. I figured out one day how to replay all of her messages. I sat on the edge of my bed crying as I listened to her voice tell me the simplest things. Oh, there is nothing major that she said to me, but it is just her voice. Ya know?
It shouldn't be so hard for me to do this little thing. Compared to what I have already had to do, this really is pretty insignificant. Only it's not. Maybe I should start telling myself I can do SIMPLE things.

Simplified Acquisition: What's in it for you?
The Chief Visionary at ASBC, Guy Timberlake, recently wrote an article regarding the Simplified Acquisition program of the Federal Government in the state of Virginia. The article points out that 1790 funding offices account for the FY12 simplified spending in the state. Over $11 million was spent via Smart Pay Purchase Cards.
The article also notes that the TSA, Federal Prison Systems, Navy, VA and the Army are the top five contracting agencies issuing simplified acquisition payments via the purchase… Read More »

Upswing in resale market?
Last November we closed on BCV 270 points @ 73$ a point. Today I was browsing the time share store and see a few BCV listings and they are listed for 94$ pp and up! Is it really gone up this much in under a year from GFV? :confused3 Or is a multitude of things? Don't get me wrong the thing only regret I have is not buying a 300 pt contract like I wanted!:lmao:
Cannot blame it on VGF. Resale inventory started going down and prices started going up about the time you closed and it has done so at a steady pace since; perhaps a sign that the overall economy is actually improving. Disney's raising its prices for older WDW resorts (OKW, SSR, BWV, VWL, and BCV) to $130 in Spring 2013 accelerated the process somewhat.
Related question--is it me or is there an abnormally large number of BWV listings?
Wouldn't say it is enormously large (much less than times in 2009 to 2011) but it is more than what was there just a month ago.
Just saw that a BCV contract sold for $110/pt. it was stripped as well. No idea what's happening.
Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards |
Yeah, we paid $50/pt for a 250 pt SSR contract in May and now they are selling anywhere between $65 and $80 pp. NEVER looked at it as an investment but makes ya feel good seeing yourself get a good deal (at least for now)!!
This time in 2011 we sold 150 BCV for 83 a Pt and bought 190 OKW at 59 per point. Our goal was to get the 11 month window at OKW and walk away with more points and no money out of pocket. Which we did.
Took us 9 months to get an offer on our BCV contract, despite offering it at a competitive price. Looking now at similar listings: BCV seems to be going for 93-95 a point and OKW for about 70-73. I just started looking at prices on a whim earlier this week. What I noticed: 1) Less Total Contracts listed. 2) Increase in prices across all resorts. (#1 may explain that). Obviously the economy is turning up. Also, with the crash, I think more people needed to get out and there was a flood of contracts on the market with very few buyers. Have not looked, but, are rental pt prices increasing also? |

Others have successfully applied the RBC to still-warm cookies out of the oven! They will never truly be "dried-out" as far as the RBC goes, as it will remain pretty soft, BUT, if you're going to using royal icing for details, that will definitely have to dry before bagging!

I have it from a good source that you can visit most residential home building sites and ask nicely for some of their scrap wood and they will give it to you. In fact, bring a box because often times there is a lot of scrap wood available….
But there are a few things to consider…
- Some of the boards that we collected have been cut into smaller pieces by my husband so they would work better for our class.
- If you ask really nice, you might be able to get the construction site workers to cut their scrap wood down for you too.
- Ask the construction site workers to tell you the differences in the types of wood or explore with them on your own a bit to see how they will work for you.
- Some wood on constructions sites (not all) is "treated wood" so you will want to see if they have wood that is not chemically treated for most things you do with the children.
- You should plan to keep a set of sanding sponges or some sand paper handy so you can smooth up the rough edges where needed.
I taught my students how to sand their own boards for some of our projects and for other projects, I lightly sanded the boards myself. We spent time in my class talking about how to handle the rough boards, how to pull off splintered pieces from the board, and how to sand the boards. My students are so capable when it comes to the scrap wood – I think it is because it is considered a special type of wood that they get to create with and explore…
Scrapwood sanding and painting
For this process, we set out scrap wood, sanding sponges, and Colorations Liquid Watercolor Paint. You could probably use any kind of paint for painting wood but the watercolor paint lets the children still see the grain (lines) of the wood while still adding color. The children sanded their rough edges (which really were not that rough) and then painted all over their boards any way they wished…
Scrapwood geoboards
I made these geoboards last year from scrap wood. You can see how I made them by clicking on this title: "I made my very own Geoboards!". My students play with the scrap wood geoboards almost daily. One of my goals this year is to let my students make their own geoboards from scrap wood. As soon as I get enough boards collected in the right size and thickness, we will give it a try…
Outdoor play with scrapwood
Another way my students love to explore scrap wood is to take it outdoors and build with it. We haven't used hammer or nails for our building as of yet. Instead, we used the scrap wood kind of like over-sized and unusual-shaped building blocks to stack or arrange. While exploring the scrap wood outdoors, my students have learned to think about what they are doing. They consider whether a boards is balanced or if it will hold their weight or if it will be sturdy enough to stay in place as they continue to design their structure. Using scrap boards for "loose parts" play is a great process for building teamwork and collaboration…
Scrapwood drawing boards
To promote writing and drawing, we set out scrap wood and markers and a few measuring tools. The children in my class love to draw on scrap wood. Their imaginations will get them using the wood for the unexpected like making their own keyboard/piano and is a fun way to practice writing their names…
Weighing scrapwood
I like to blend the scrap wood with a variety of tools like these scales for a little scrap wood weighing…
Scrapwood Journals
In our outdoor classroom, I made a few scrap wood journals for the children to write on. I used a staple gun to attach scrap paper to the boards and introduced leaf rubbings on this particular occasion. If the children wished to tear their drawing or paper off the board to take home they were invited to do so. Adding more paper to the board is simple to do as needed.
Of course there are many other ways to use scrap wood in preschool. Perhaps you have some ideas you have tried with your preschoolers or things you have made for your preschoolers using scrap wood. If so, leave a comment below and share your scrapping ideas with us! We are always looking for more ways to explore our scrap wood!

Another GARAGE with house attached. Make the house more prominent by pulling it forward and recessing the garage from the front plane of the house. |

It looks like you have to go thru the guest bath to get to the guest bedroom. Not sure that would always make sense. |
- Posted by newbuild1957 (My Page) on Sun, Jul 29, 12 at 15:30
It does look like that but, you enter from the small hall not the bedroom. Thanks! |
- Posted by gaonmymind (My Page) on Sun, Jul 29, 12 at 16:11
Hmm...its ok. Take a look at the plan below. It's a small cottage my architect did. The lot dictated the garage be in the front but he tried to do it in a way that still made the house prominent on the facade. Also not it has windows on all four sides. |

I agree with Green that the garage will dominate the facade. Re: the kitchen size issue: The corner pantry and angled island make it feel cramped. You could try this: rotate the front hall closet and move the pantry to the space that was kind of unused to the right of the guest bath; change the door to swing in. Straigten the island. Move the refrigerator to the end of the range run; this means that diners can grab a beverage refill without walking past the work zone. If you are rather formal diners and don't like the looks of a fridge so close, consider getting a panelled fridge. (See mockup.) Also, post your plans on the kitchens forum - there are loads of talented layout folks there. |
I would probably think about swaping the space around. My last house I walked from the garage thru the laundry room, directly to the kitchen. My new house I walk from the garage partially thru the family room to the kitchen. I prefer my old layout wayyyyy better! Also, I would consider putting your master bath in from of your bedroom and then move your sunroom behind your bedroom. Then just extend your porch/patio area. |

HELENA - Bus loads of hunters and anglers piled into the halls of the Capitol in Helena on Monday to show lawmakers they are serious about access to public land.
They were sporting hunter orange and sitting quietly in the House gallery as lawmakers debated two bills involving public access to public land.
"This is an incentive program. And it benefits sportsmen and landowners in Montana," said Rep. Kelly Flynn (R-Townsend).
Flynn wants to take $1.2 million a year from the Habitat Montana account and transfer it to the block management program which the state would then use to pay private landowners who open up their land for public use.
"It's a bill that pits one good program against, Habitat Montana, from which the funds would come, against another good program which is block management," Rep. Frankie Wilmer (D-Bozeman) commented.
The bill passed in a 66-34 vote with a majority of Democrats opposing it.
But the measure which everyone showed up for was House Bill 235, also known as the corner crossing bill.
More than 800,000 acres of public land are blocked off in Montana because they are surrounded by private land and Rep. Ellie Hill's bill would allow someone to walk across the corner of private property to access public land.
"This must be done on foot. We're talking about hopscotch folks. Leaping from one public corner to the other and never touching the soil of a private property's land," Hill (D-Missoula) explained.
"It's not about hopscotch. It's about trespassing onto private property," said Rep. Jeffrey Welborn (R-Dillon).
The bill died on the House floor in a 45-54 vote. But for the men and women in orange they say not everyone is wealthy enough to own prime hunting ground, so they want the legislature to give them access to public land.
"Can a person be a property right advocate while denying your neighbor the use and enjoyment of their adjacent properties to the full extent provided by the law? I say no," Randy Newberg with the Headwaters Sportsmen Association stated.
"I will say it right here, civil disobedience. Get cited. Civil disobedience and a ballot initiative," Hill said.
The organizers of the bus trip told us more than 300 sportsmen attended the event on Monday.

Some plays make you question the cost of your ticket. Arthur Miller's fierce 1968 family drama, "The Price," makes you question literally the cost of living.
The appearance of the third Miller revival on Broadway in three seasons, after the success of "A View from the Bridge" and "Death of a Salesman," suggests that some theatergoers want more than easy laughs and cheap consolation.
In this brilliantly bracing production, "The Price" delivers both tough comedy and an unflinching vision of the toll that life demands from us. In the wrong hands, this play can be like being stuck in an elevator with a couple in the middle of a bitter divorce. With so much anger on a single, unchanging set, it seems to embody W.B. Yeats' phrase, "great hatred, little room."
Miller's tale of two estranged, middle-aged brothers, brought together by the sale of their dead father's furniture, can be suffocating as the pair unleash years of resentment.
Vic, now a cop, sacrificed his education and ambition to take care of their father, a rich man who lost everything in the Wall Street crash. Walter, now a wealthy doctor, put himself first. And since nothing can change the past, they seem destined to keep paying the price of those choices.
With this intense focus, "The Price" doesn't have the epic lyricism of "Death of a Salesman" or the grand formality of "A View From the Bridge." And yet, under James Naughton's beautifully judged direction, it exerts an unbreakable grip.
One of the reasons is Bob Dishy's mesmerizing performance as Solomon, the ancient dealer who comes to buy the furniture. It is in this role that we can see Miller's genius. He uses Solomon as Shakespeare uses his fools and clowns to provide both comic relief and a larger perspective on the unfolding calamity.
And Dishy's portrayal is big enough to contain both the humor and the wisdom. Shambling but regal, ludicrous but strangely noble, he lifts the play out of its claustrophobic confines and into the cold light of tragedy.
This allows the other actors to give performances as clear, sharp and lacerating as broken glass. The play may not offer the great individual roles that Brian Dennehy and Elisabeth Franz filled with such magnificence in "Death of a Salesman" but this cast fuses itself into one unforgettable character.
In his hovering movements and wary glances, Jeffrey DeMunn as Vic catches the despair of a man who can let nothing rest, especially himself.
Lizbeth Mackay, as his wife, Esther, brings out the bitterness of life as an innocent bystander in a domestic war zone.
And Harris Yulin's Walter is as battered, hollow and potentially explosive as a dormant volcano.
Naughton's quiet, subtle direction is perfectly tuned to the play's emotional frequencies. He is alive to the power of understatement. He knows when to hold back the passion and when to let it rip.
Above all, he and his cast are completely true to Miller's vision. Although it often surprises with its humor and its vividness, this production does not pull any punches.
It has the courage of Miller's convictions. And that, at a time when drama is often afraid to speak about harsh truths, is priceless.
Arthur Miller's funniest play comes electrifyingly alive in the splendid revival of his 1968 "The Price" at the Royale Theatre.
Director James Naughton and four brilliant players attain an intense simplicity that's beyond praise. They mine every ounce of humanity, emotion and humor in this confrontation between two brothers who haven't spoken in 16 years, and whose family brownstone in Manhattan is about to be torn down.
We're in the attic - a cathedral of clutter piled high with chairs, tables, mirrors, musical instruments, the whole detritus of a once-rich family as designed by Michael Brown.
Victor Franz, a tightly wound cop, and his wife, Esther, are the first to arrive. Victor, played with simmering explosiveness by Jeffrey DeMunn, is the good son, the one who stayed home to take care of dad, broken by the crash, and wrecked his life.
Lizbeth Mackay skillfully makes Esther a purse-clutching, paranoid, incipient alcoholic who is forever pushing her reluctant husband to make money on things.
The marital tension (wonderfully observed and written) is relieved by the arrival of Miller's most hilariously lovable character, an 89-year-old appraiser named Gregory Solomon. Bob Dishy, clad in a felt hat and a tattered greatcoat with Persian lamb lapels, eating a hard-boiled egg and carefully shoveling the shells into his briefcase, gives one of the great comic performances recently on the New York stage.
Dishy creates a sage old man with a Yiddish accent who left Russia 65 years ago and who was once an acrobat in vaudeville ("Jews have been acrobats since the beginning of the world."). He married, at 75, a woman who is inordinately fond of birds. This glorious geezer, who has known his share of suffering, incarnates a wisdom deeper than the play's official themes.
Brother Walter arrives in the second act. He's the bad brother, a rich doctor who went to med school while Victor had to drop out of college.
Harris Yulin cleverly presents a Walter as unlikable at first, with his camel's hair coat, snotty attitude toward Solomon and sleazy tax write-off schemes, but he lets us gradually see that Walter's not a heavy.
The heart of the second act is a pitched battle between the brothers over choices made and paths taken in 1936, 30 years back.
For Victor, the culprit is capitalism. "There was no mercy anywhere" in the America of 1936, he insists. For Walter, the culprit is father. "There was no love in this house," he says.
So is "The Price" Marxist or Freudian? Who must be slain, Hoover-cum-FDR or Laius?
The author tries for even-handedness, but in his gut he's with Victor. But the play is, so to speak, wiser than its writer, for it ends with Solomon, alone in the attic, putting a Laughing Record on an old Victrola and cracking up.
Life trumps ideology.
Who is that crafty old codger with the borscht belt patter, the one who has the audience in stitches at the Royale Theater? No, it's not Jackie Mason (good guess, though), whose one-man show begins previews tonight at the Golden Theater next door. The kosher-salted crowd pleaser at the Royale is an 89-year-old furniture dealer, played by Bob Dishy, who is also the moral conscience in a drama by the morally conscientious Arthur Miller.
You heard right. While it's true that Mr. Miller isn't generally a fellow you could imagine at a Friars' roast with Henny Youngman and Alan King, Mr. Dishy isn't pulling laughs out of the air in the seriously imbalanced revival of ''The Price'' that opened last night under James Naughton's direction. This 1968 play of self-delusion and fraternal conflict finds the author of ''Death of a Salesman'' and ''The Crucible'' dropping the schoolteacher's ruler and loosening up a bit.
This may be why the audience at the Royale, so accustomed to somber admonitions from Mr. Miller, sounds like a laugh track for much of the evening's first act; it is, at least partly, the laughter of relief. When Mr. Dishy's character makes a reference to the suicide of his young daughter, however, you can sense a ripple of confusion in the house. And when ''The Price'' settles into its earnest battle of wills about the ownership of one family's past, literally and metaphorically, there is the unmistakable sound of gears being stripped.
Don't blame the playwright. As written, this atypical and undervalued work plays shrewdly with both humor and pathos in its account of two estranged middle-aged brothers (here portrayed by Jeffrey DeMunn and Harris Yulin) reunited by the sale of their long-dead father's furniture. ''The Price'' also shows a fluid command of imagery starting with its reverberant title, and it is refreshing in its refusal to come down firmly on the side of either of the embattled siblings. It has a vital ambiguity, unusual in Mr. Miller's work.
The form of the play, however, is definitely on the stiff side, finally turning into a back-and-forth exchange of revelations and recriminations that inspired the critic Walter Kerr to observe deliciously, when ''The Price'' opened 31 years ago, that the evening relied on equivalents of ''the Erle Stanley Gardner line 'All right, I'll tell you what happened.' ''
For ''The Price'' to convince in performance, it has to create a sense of people picking at old wounds with the horrible exactitude peculiar to members of the same family. More than most plays, even more than most of Mr. Miller's plays, it demands an organic emotional flow to avoid seeming like a formal debate. And this production has the misfortune to follow immediately Robert Falls's intensely felt, vividly reconceived interpretation of ''Salesman.''
Neither spontaneity nor a revivifying new perspective is a hallmark of this ''Price,'' first seen at the Williamstown Theater Festival in August. Mr. Naughton, best known as a sterling actor in musicals (''City of Angels,'' ''Chicago''), has encouraged a spirit of individualism in his four performers that keeps cohesion at bay.
Mr. Yulin, who doesn't show up until the end of the first act, is excellent, giving judiciously considered weight to Mr. Miller's intriguing notion of bad faith, in which personality is made of calcified layers of self-deceptions. And Mr. DeMunn, whose squared shoulders bespeak a long-nurtured defensiveness, can be very affecting, never more so than when he is still and silent.
But you simply don't believe that these men are brothers, with a bottomless capacity to wound each other. And without that visceral connection, ''The Price'' starts to seemed fueled by hot air.
Mr. Miller's basic conceit is ingeniously simple, trading in the regressive bad behavior that arises within families when an estate has to be settled. The burden of a shared past takes on physical weight in the form of the heavy Edwardian furniture that crowds the top floor of a New York town house (designed by Michael Brown, with a surrealist slant more appropriate to Ionesco's ''Chairs'') that is soon to be destroyed.
It is here that the once wealthy father of Victor (Mr. DeMunn) and Walter Franz (Mr. Yulin) lived passively after his financial destruction in the crash of 1929. Victor, who stayed on to take care of the old man, sacrificing his passion for science, is a policeman on the edge of retirement; Walter effectively divorced himself from his family to become a successful surgeon.
Victor is accompanied by his long-suffering wife, Esther (Lizbeth Mackay), who sniffs a chance for material comfort after years of scrimping. The evening's assessor, in more ways than one, is the resonantly named Gregory Solomon (Mr. Dishy), who arrives swathed in Yiddish folksiness and the wisdom of the ages. It is he who will deliver the evening's baldest statements of theme. ''The price of used furniture is nothing but a viewpoint,'' he says. ''If you don't understand the viewpoint, you don't understand the price.''
Mr. Dishy's adorably conniving performance wins over the audience early, yet the suspicion arises that what the actor is delivering is not so much characterization as impersonation. While this might seem appropriate to a play about how people become the masks they adopt, Solomon is in fact the one character meant to be taken at face value, someone Mr. Miller has described as ''yards ahead'' of the others in his realistic acceptance of life.
Mr. Dishy suggests a posturing manipulator whose lapses into physical weakness seem less like mortal intimations than sympathy-grabbing stratagems. The interpretive choices have clearly been made in the name of theatrical liveliness, but they are ultimately miscalculations.
Ms. Mackay is simply miscast as Esther, who here seems as fluttery as a butterfly in a high wind, when what's needed is a ball and chain type forged in guilt and affection. Mr. Yulin, on the other hand, seems to have been destined to play Walter. The actor's natural self-important stateliness works beautifully, and you're always aware of the friction between the smooth surface and the roughness of angry confusion beneath.
When Mr. DeMunn is simply listening, arms folded into an insulating shield, he is an ideal Victor. But in the heat of conversation he falls into grating patterns of inflections and gestures that crop up with the rhythmic regularity of ballroom dance steps.
Nonetheless it is he who provides the evening with its most eloquent moment, which occurs in the show's first minutes. Walking across the cluttered stage with both willed deliberation and uneasy wonder, he pauses to pick up a fencing foil, a relic of Victor's youth.
Mr. DeMunn's face remains the same emblem of resignation and disappointment, but his body reflexively assumes a posture of elegance and verve. The contrast says everything about a man who has never come to terms with the past that has made him what he is. That nothing else in the production quite matches this exquisite preface makes its own comment on missed opportunities.

I have done two memorial cakes for two family members. The first for my husband's grandmother had a picture of her with the words in loving memory, her name and dates. Nobody was offended and everyone ate cake. It wasn't a celebration of her death but a celebration of her life. The second one was for a younger woman who did not survive cancer. I also had her picture and I adorned the cake with pink and white roses per the request of her husband. It was quite beautiful as was she. Again, no offense to anyone. If the cake is requested, it is because the family feels that it is appropriate. It is not to celebrate the death because who does that? but to celebrate the life and honor the person and they deserve to be honored with a cake just as if they were alive. I have attached a photo. The photo is not very great because I had to use my cell phone. It was very beautiful in person and her husband loved it. HTH. God Bless.
very beautiful and very sad
So crazy...This photo link led me to this thread.
Oh well. I've reported it.
By the way, when my friend died from cancer at 48 years old, we we were invited to a brunch right after the funeral. Lots of family members and close friends. You wouldn't know what we were there for. There was lots of noise, even laughs. It was a little strange at the beginning, but I think she probably told her children she wanted it that way.
What is UP with the newbies replying to posts from YEARS ago? Seriously driving me batty.

CAIRO - The Austrian Turkish community has accused the popular line of construction toys Lego of racism after the release of a new Star Wars model that resembles historic Hagia Sophia mosque in Istanbul.
What Lego are recommending parents buy as a Christmas gift? The answer is pure racism, the Turkish Cultural Community of Austria said in a statement cited by The Huffington Post on Thursday, January 24.
The group was referring to a newly released Jabba the Hutt set.Hagia Sophia, A Monument to Faith
It accused the giant toy manufacturer of modeling Jabba; the Star Wars villain's palace, on the famous Hagia Sophia mosque in Istanbul and a minaret, adding that the firm is linking evil to Muslim places of worship.
On its website the group in Austria has posted a photo of the box plus an image of the mosque, saying the roof was a 1:1 copy of the roof of the mosque.
It also complains that the muezzin is portrayed as a criminal with an axe and machinegun while machine guns are stored in the minaret.
The group added the model is similar to the Jami al-Kabir mosque in Beirut and adds the Combination of temple building and bunker facilities where shots are fired cannot be appropriate for children between 9 and 14 years old.
One would expect more empathy and responsibility from a manufacturer of toys that has produced toys and models that are good for teaching for decades.
The community called on Lego to apologize for affronting religious and cultural feelings.
They added that they were considering legal action against Lego, urging parents not to buy toys of war or toys of discrimination.
Lego has rejected the accusations, denying any link between Jabba's Palace and the mosque.
We regret that the product has caused the members of the Turkish cultural community to come to a wrong interpretation, but point out that when designing the product only the fictional content of the Star Wars saga were referred to, Lego spokeswoman Katharina Sasse said.
Sasse added that it has been difficult to recreate film scenes with small stones.
The Lego Star Wars product Jabba's Palace does not reflect any actually existing buildings, people, or the mentioned mosque, she said.
The Lego mini-figures are all modeled on characters from the movie.
A church for over 1,000 years, and a mosque for 500 more, Hagia [Aya] Sophia is the most spectacular building in Istanbul.
The church was turned into a mosque after Constantinople was taken by Sultan Mehmet II in 1453.
Extraordinary masters of the Ottoman Empire architects repaired the building extensively in the 16th century, providing greater exterior support for the dome and the walls. Minarets were also added.

Workplace Lighting
Lighting, or the lack of it, can be a safety hazard. The University of North Dakota follows the American National Standards Institute's (ANSI) recommendations for illuminance values in offices, industrial areas, and classrooms. If you feel the lighting in your work area is not appropriate, contact Facilities at 701-777-2591.
The use of temporary lighting, ordinary incandescent bulbs suspended from electrical cords, can be an electrical problem. Cords and lights that are suspended in this way must be designed for this purpose. All electric cords for temporary lighting must be heavy-duty and insulation must be maintained in a safe condition. To prevent accidental contact with bulbs, the bulbs must be guarded, unless the construction of the reflector is such that the bulbs are deeply recessed.
Every exit sign should be suitably illuminated by a reliable light source giving a value of at least 5 foot candles on the illuminated surface.

I guess there's no point to remaining on this web site, since I no longer identify myself with a sexual orientation and I never post anything on topis, but I don't give a fuck. You'll have to force me off if you want me to leave.
This is the best album of the year so far, so listen to it:
I love Markus Mehr. I need to buy that album when I get the money. I probably need a job, too, so I'll work on that.
I will also see if I can visit a friend this weekend. Maybe he'll be up to watching A Serbian Film again. That would indeed be fun.
Sorry, the only motivation to writing this was boredom.
I do listen to ambient music when I write, but that was too menacing for my taste.
I'm sure a lack of a sexual orientation is classified as some sort of sexual orientation.
"You don't know you're beautiful." - Harry Styles
Too glitchy and weird, or what? It doesn't really have a dark atmosphere or anything.
The atonal dissonance? Minor chords? That was just the word that jumped out at me.
"You don't know you're beautiful." - Harry Styles
1. Having no evident sex or sex organs; sexless.
2. Relating to, produced by, or involving reproduction that occurs without the union of male and female gametes, as in binary fission or budding.
3. Lacking interest in or desire for sex.
...So if you don't have any desire for sex (or you reproduce through binary fission, thus eliminating the need for a mate), that's what you are.
Not straight? Not gay? Not something else... ?
If it's a total lack of libido... you might benefit from these 6 articles on the subject of asexuality that have appeared over the past week or so on Huffington Post:
As for music... could we discuss baroque?
Good luck!
You could change your mind very quickly after smoking some good bud.
I know one thing, it always makes me horny, so thinking about guys always enters the equation.
I don't have a lack of libido, I've just lost interest in everything related to sexuality. It just seems pointless to care about that, when there's so much beauty and fun in life outside of this petty materialistic internal debate over what sexuality is. I don't want to identify myself with a useless label that only categorizes and stereotypes us. Even the Kinsey Scale is bullshit.
I also don't see why I should be romantically attracted to only one sex. I think if I'm not going to care about sex, why discriminate? A romantic relationship with a woman would very much be possible at this point. I haven't had the desire for one before, but I should no longer narrow possible relationships down to what works sexually, when love and sex aren't even related. It makes no sense; we're just doing what society tells us to do, and that just leads to horrible stereotyping of the categories people put themselves in.
Oh, so you're the kind of person who's bisexual, but if you tell them they're bisexual, they're all like, "No it's deeper than that" when it's really not :P
Sexuality's really only a label that traps you and stereotypes you if you allow it to do so. I'm a lesbian. But that doesn't mean I have to live my life as a lesbian. It's just a trait I was born with. If society places so much emphasis on sex and sexuality then that's society's problem, not mine.
Or potentially a pan or Omni sexual... I have to agree that really such things are simply labels and are stupid and silly. Really I have found that the best course is, (Since our situations seem similar) just to use it as a matter of connivance. Whatever you feel like at the moment is whatever you happen to be... in the end... who really gives a fuck. Identifying with any label is limiting and so using the label as a tool for your own means is always a better idea :P
I finally ordered Dopesmoker on vinyl. I got the Indica edition. The price was $24.20 and it was released on 4/20, so it's the most straight-edge record ever. That'll be sweet when it arrives.

A snowboarding prodigy in his own right, Greg Bretz was on a board at age five and began competing at 10. The young shredder shook up the scene in 2008 with podium finishes and wins on both the World Cup and Grand Prix circuits, earning him his spot with the U.S. Snowboarding squad. The 2010 season saw the halfpipe rider notch a pair of top-10 finishes on the U.S. Grand Prix tour, which sealed him a spot on his first Olympic Team. The then 20-year-old landed a 12th in Vancouver. Although Bretz battled nagging injuries in 2012, he still managed to podium at both the Copper and Mammoth U.S. Grand Prix events. Then in 2013 Bretz continued to knock on the podium door despite tough competition at the Grand Prix and X Games. Bretz came out of the gate swinging in 2014, winning the first Olympic qualifier of the season at the Breckenridge Dew Tour stop, becoming the first halfpipe rider to best Shaun White in nearly four years. Bretz backed up that win with a second place finish at the U.S. Grand Prix at Copper Mountain, making an early claim on his ticket to Sochi. Bretz went on to win his first X Games medal in Aspen and then continued his strong riding at Rosa Khutor, where he posted another 12th-place finish at the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games.

The X Factor is a British television music competition to find new singing talent, contested by aspiring singers drawn from public auditions. Created by Simon Cowell, the show began in 2004 and has since aired annually from August/September until December. The show is produced by FremantleMedia's Thames (previously Talkback Thames) and Cowell's production company SycoTV. It is broadcast on the ITV network in the United Kingdom and simulcast on TV3 in the Republic of Ireland, with spin-off behind-the-scenes show The Xtra Factor screened on ITV2. The "X Factor" refers to the undefinable "something" that makes for star quality. The show was devised as a replacement for the highly successful Pop Idol, which was put on indefinite hiatus after its second series, largely because Cowell, who was a judge on Pop Idol, wished to launch a show to which he owned the television rights. The perceived similarity between the two shows later became the subject of a legal dispute.

Suspects in Phoenix area pharmacy robberies sought
PHOENIX -- Phoenix police are looking for two men suspected of robbing nearly a dozen Phoenix area pharmacies at gunpoint since last summer.
Police say the men are accused of walking into 11 pharmacies and threatening a pharmacist with a handgun to get oxycodone.
They say the robberies have occurred since last July with the most recent being April 5.
The suspects appear to target independently-owned pharmacies and have hit stores in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Gilbert, Tempe and Surprise.
In their most recent attempt, they allegedly went into Quick Pharmacy near 43rd Avenue and Northern Avenue but fled upon seeing an armed employee.
Police describe one suspect as Hispanic and in his mid-20s to 30 years old.
They say the other is black and around the same age.

Annual Report 2012 Submitted by Barbara Estabrook
At the beginning of fiscal year 2013 the ABCC was allotted $7740 from the MCC, level with our allocations in FY2011 and FY2012. Also we had a rollover of funds unexpended from previous grant cycles that had to be granted in this cycle, bringing our total amount available to grant to $7840.
It was another competitive grant season. We publicized the availability of grants through emailed and posted fliers and press releases in The Beacon and Action Unlimited. Also we provided telephone and email consultation to several applicants. Application information was available at our staffed display table at the Acton-Boxborough Farmers Market in August and at West Acton Oktoberfest. We received 44 applications requesting a total of $30,015 in funding. The number of applicants and the total amount of funding sought have been consistent over the past several years. After very difficult and lengthy deliberations the ABCC chose to fund 33 projects that give the greatest benefit to our communities including projects at the elementary schools, the public libraries, the Council on Aging, the Recreation Department, the Historical Society and Iron Work Farm, the Boxborough Harvest Festival, ABRHS involvement in the Massachusetts High School Drama festival, and nine other Acton-based organizations and individual artists. Final approval from the MCC of local council grant decisions is expected in late January; grantees are notified and grantee names and grant amounts are announced to the public at that time.
D. Local Funding and Council-Initiated Events
The ABCC was once again generously supported by both Acton and Boxborough town funds via warrant articles and line items. The dedication of the voters, Boards and public officials in both towns is truly remarkable. Acton provided the ABCC, through a Warrant Article, with $2000. Boxborough provided $1,500 for exclusive use in Boxborough. Few local cultural councils enjoy this level of local support. We are extremely grateful and seek every opportunity to acknowledge the support of our two towns. We are grateful also for the physical support that the two towns provide: meeting spaces, access to the town copiers, etc. 2012 was the fourth year the ABCC benefitted from the excellent support of the Information Technology Department of the Town of Acton, to scan all 44 grant applications and provide online access to all Council members to the scanned documents through the Town website. This saved thousands of sheets of paper and many hours of labor. Our "green" grants cycle has received statewide recognition from the MCC.
We are also thankful for the continued support and active involvement of our liaisons, Acton Selectman Janet Adachi and Boxborough Selectman
The ABCC sponsored and collaborated on several exciting events in 2012. Details are below.
1. Chinese Music Night, December 2, 2012
The Cultural Council continued its collaboration with the Acton Chinese Language School and the Acton Recreation Department as a co-sponsor of this hugely successful event at ABRHS. More than 1000 people attended the program which received rave reviews.
2. Bluegrass Festival, June 16, 2012.
For the second year, the ABCC was pleased to provide financial support for the Recreation Departments Bluegrass Festival held at NARA.
The ABCC held its annual Grantee Reception at Sargent Memorial Library in Boxborough. This event provides a valuable opportunity for grantees to meet, to publicize their projects, and to network with other arts-minded individuals and groups. In addition to our FY12 grantees, our state and local legislators and officials were invited to attend. Each grantee had a chance to speak briefly to acknowledge supporters and collaborating artists and organizations and to highlight upcoming events. Acton Selectmen Janet Adachi and John Sonner, and Boxborough Selectmen Les Fox, Becky Neville and Frank Powers attended. Performances by 2012 grantees included a group of singers from the Acton Community Chorus, and the Yankee Doodle Dixieland Band that is mostly an offshoot of the Nashoba Valley Concert Band. Attendees also were treated to a scene from "The Redcoats are Coming" performed by actors from Theatre with a Twist, written by Jane Ross, descendant of Abner Hosmer and directed by Mary Spinosa-Wilson of Acton. Also we took the opportunity to thank and celebrate retiring ABCC member Anne Krinsky and our four graduating seniors of the ABRHS Advisory Group.
Following 2008s year-long festival of cultures called "Our World," we have offered an annual international series of acclaimed films for adult audiences. Once again ABCC member Greg Hutchins coordinated the series, which included the films "Local Hero" (Scotland) and "The Wedding Banquet" (China) . Due to scheduling difficulties, the Turkish film "Bliss" was acquired but not shown; it will be rescheduled in 2013. Showings were held at Acton Town Hall, and the films shown have been donated to the Towns libraries for their collections. We hope to continue the series in 2013 and beyond, with the theme and slogan "May is Movie Month". The Acton IT and Facilities Departments were especially helpful with the 2012 film series.
An evening of short films was held at the Sargent Memorial Library , curated by ABCC member Greg Hutchins and by Todd Davis, filmmaker and Boxborough resident. One of the filmmakers was on hand to discuss the films after the showing.

6. Sculpture purchase and permanent installation
In the fall of 2011, the ABCC held "The Art of Recycling" a project that included a free sculpture workshop at NARA Park followed by a month-long exhibit of recycled art indoors and outdoors at the Sargent Memorial Library in Boxborough. In the winter and spring of 2012, the ABCC under the leadership of Boxborough members Pascale Belin-White and Nancy Kumaraswami worked with the Trustees and staff of the Sargent Memorial Library to select an outdoor work from the exhibit, "Hollyhock" by Madeleine Lord, for purchase and installation at the Library. With additional assistance from the Boxborough Department of Public Works and the Boxborough Garden Club, "Hollyhock" was placed in a flower bed at the west end of the Library building , where it can be viewed and enjoyed from the Library driveway and lawn as well as from the large adult reading area indoors.
The success of "The Art of Recycling" and the warm reception for "Hollyhock" has provided the impetus for a gift of sculpture to the Town of Acton, coordinated by Linda Mayer, and Barbara Estabrook, Acton members of the ABCC. They met with Tom Tidman, Department of Conservation Director, Cathy Fochtman, Department of Recreation Director, Cathy Hatfield, Friends of the Acton Arboretum President, and Bettina Abe of the Conservation Department and Friends of the Acton Arboretum. The group considered the Arboretum but decided that NARA would be a more suitable and more easily monitored site for sculpture. Linda, Barbara, Tom and Cathy Fochtman toured NARA in November to identify possible locations within the park, and Cathy created a map with photographs by Linda that can be provided to sculptors interested in submitting pieces for consideration. A call to artists for submissions will be issued in winter 2013, with the intention to select, purchase and install one or more pieces by the end of the calendar year.

7. Piano Cabaret, Acton Memorial Library Foundation, October 2012
The ABCC supported a piano event of the AMLF by arranging and paying for tuning of the historic Fitzgerald piano the day before the event.

More questions on abortion, religious liberty likely after Biden-Ryan clash

If the topics of abortion and religious liberty come up at Tuesday night's town-hall debate, it is likely both President Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney will be ready.

"I still don't know why," he says. But that hasn't stopped him from hiring a couple of helpers and filling the library's acid-free boxes with press clippings, photographs, letters to and letters from. "I'm known for hanging around with important people," he muses. "How important is that? My father hung around with some really important people, and a college in Boston got his papers, which makes sense."
Although my father's filing cabinet looks emptier than it has in my lifetime, I still manage to find a letter from my dad to his dad, written on onionskin in 1958.
"Oh, that's a terrible letter," he remembers. "We didn't talk for two years after I wrote it."
In some families, this outcome might be cause for concern. Not in mine, however, where not speaking is as common a description as retired and living in Florida.
"Can I read it?" I ask.
"Oh, sure. Go ahead."
I think altogether you behaved quite badly, my 32-year-old father had written. You spent most of the session tooting your own horn and dismissing everything and everyone else as incompetent....You were a flagrant name dropper....He wraps it up with a plea for peace and a final warning that, if not, this must really be the End.
For as far back as I've been able to trace, my family has been obsessive about putting everything into writing. This Is the End is one of the grand old themes running through the correspondence, and I have used it, too. When I was young and stupid and my father was older and not all that smart, we went dove hunting and drove back from Last Chance in a ferocious disagreement about, if you can believe it, oil-rig machinery. Two days later, I received You Have Behaved Badly/Straighten Up or This Is the End! I scrawled off a brilliant counterargument. Twenty-four hours later, he telephoned.
"Why?" I asked snottily. "If you're not speaking to me, why call?"
"Because I got your letter," he said.
"And I can't read your handwriting. So listen, you wanna just call this off? You eat yet?"
And that was that, until the next time.
"I loved my father, and I miss him," my father now says. "I was the apple of his eye, unless I wasn't."
I know the feeling. Weirdly, it's a sign of my father's extreme loyalty. Earning a place on his letter-writing roster means you've been accepted forever. Every time you make a mistake, you'll hear about it, but that won't change the way he feels about you, which tends to be optimistic. In addition to This Is the End collections, my sisters and I all have How Wonderful You Are and Let Me Tell You Exactly Why compilations. And, as the Western History Collection will shortly discover, we constitute just a tiny percentage of Blair Chotzinoff's correspondents.
If the boxes contain letters to the guy who sets up the pool in spring, an accountant, a meter reader and Mrs. Fields of Mrs. Fields Cookies fame, it's because my dad is unable to write the words "To Whom It May Concern." With him, it always gets personal. People have either wronged him grievously -- And why? Why? -- or made him unexpectedly happy, which is what Mrs. Fields did with that wonderful rye bread that suddenly appeared on either side of the sandwich fillings at her Cherry Creek store.
He receives mail in the same spirit, treasuring the memory of a thirty-year-old letter from a collection agency.
"It said, 'This is absolutely the last time we will contact you about this matter,'" my dad recalls. "And it was!"
The filing system has become crudely alphabetical:
Gus: my daughter, who can't read but has received mail from my father.
Gehachte: a recipe for homemade chopped liver, sent out -- but to whom?
Gloria: Steinem. Once his fiancée, she founded feminism instead. All her letters begin "Dearest Blair," and I'm embarrassed to read more, even though my father isn't one bit concerned.
"I don't value privacy the way some people do," he says. "I really have nothing to hide unless I've done something illegal or stupid."
This is completely untrue.
One night at 3 a.m., my father awoke with a craving for the kind of ice cream sauce that goes on hot and instantly forms a shell. In his second-floor kitchen, and following a recipe in The Joy of Cooking, he got as far as "measure with a candy thermometer," substituted an oral thermometer that promptly blew up, chased bits of glass and mercury into the garbage and started all over again. The second batch of sauce turned out perfect, and with my dad's first bite, he glued his dentures shut. After attempting to chisel them apart with a screwdriver, he removed them from his mouth, began soaking them in the upstairs sink and went off to take a nap. The water ran until it soaked down to the first floor.
