12.8.2011 Toyota Plug-in Prius to launch in 2012
Toyota will debut the production version of the Prius Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) at the Frankfurt Motor Show on 15th September.
The Prius Plug-in Hybrid represents the latest development of Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive (HSD) system, which has proved a reliable technology with over two million cars sold worldwide.
The new Prius Plug-in will become the flagship of the Prius range, a showcase for new technologies and further advances in hybrid technology. In 2012 it will join an expanded Toyota hybrid range consisting of the Prius, the British-built Auris hybrid, a seven-seat Prius+, and the new Yaris hybrid, demonstrating Toyota's commitment to Hybrid Synergy Drive technology.
The new Prius Plug-in Hybrid features a new, more compact lithium-ion battery. While some debate the relative merits of electric cars, the new Prius Plug-in Hybrid offers drivers the best of both worlds; extended EV driving range for shorter journeys in towns and cities, while the efficient hybrid petrol engine gives the car uncompromised long range capability and the very low fuel consumption of the standard Prius.
The new battery offers extended EV (electric power only) range, which Toyota claim enables the Prius PHEV to achieve fuel efficiency of 128.4 mpg and CO2 emissions of just 49 g/km – almost half that of the standard Prius.
However, quoting a single fuel economy figure for a PHEV is difficult, as distance between charging – or whether the vehicle is plugged in for charging at all – makes considerable difference to the amount of fuel that will be used.
There is some debate as to the most appropriate fuel economy test cycle that should be used to provide a PHEV with a figure for fuel efficiency – many believe that it is not possible to quote a single figure as there is so much uncertainty.
In the US, the current standard is to provide a fuel economy label with two figures – one from an all electric test cycle and one from a cycle where the battery is depleted and the engine is used as much as possible.
This said, PHEVs certainly have the potential to be particularly more fuel efficient and less CO2 emitting than standard hybrid vehicles, if charged and driven in the 'correct' way. The Plug-in Prius is likely to return fuel costs that are lower than the existing Prius, as well as being eligible for incentives such as the Government's Plug-in Car Grant (worth up to £5,000).

At the moment you can only gain insanity if you fail a non-combat fear test by 3 degrees or more. I'm currently running it as 1 point of insanity per degree failed by in all situations.

"My hobby is stuffing things. You know — taxidermy."
— Anthony Perkins
Tony Perkins as Norman Bates in the movie "Psycho" was a pretty creepy dude. Edward Leep Jr, also a taxidermist, is the polar opposite — one of the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet.
So much for stereotypes.
Leep, 39, and his father, Edward Sr, own and operate American Natural Resources Inc. on Broad Street in Griffith. The place is near Blythe's Sporting Goods and right next to DeRosa Imports. I'd already interviewed Dick and Roger Blythe for this column but not Anthony DeRosa. DeRosa's interview will run Wednesday.
I love my job.
Walking into American Natural Resources feels like you're walking into The Field Museum. And although a huntsman will have to fork out more than $5,000 for his grizzly bear (full mount), an angler can have his or her 10-inch bluegill done for about $65.
Did you attend Griffith High School?
"No, I grew up in Schererville and went to Illiana Christian in Lansing, (Ill.)," he said. "We still attend the (First) Christian Reformed Church in Highland."
I figured Leep was probably a Dutch name.
"My great-grandfather came over from Holland. My grandfather started the business in the 1937. He did it out of his house in Highland on Lincoln Street. Once my grandfather passed away, my dad took over."
Tell me more about your grandfather.
"He started Pleasant View Dairy in Highland with Bud Leep. Grandpa Leep worked as a processor at the dairy, but also took taxidermy lessons from Louis Schere. This was during the Great Depression and he caught some flak from the family because he was spending money on those lessons.
"Grandpa died of a heart attack while deer hunting in Big Rapids, Mich. in 1964. I'll say this, Louie Leep died doing what he loved."
Your father?
"Dad worked for (Royal Crown) Cola and became a full-time taxidermist in 1968 in Schererville. In '94, we moved the business to Griffith."
The business continued to grow.
"Yes, we diversified from just being a backyard taxidermy outfit doing strictly customer work to doing a lot more wholesale work, furniture, antler chandeliers, antler chews for dogs... . We did a lot of work for Bass Pro until about 2008."
What happened?
"The economy. They let go a lot of their staff. The people we were connected with lost their jobs."
Ed, like a lot of kids, I sent in for lessons, but interest sort of waned. Remember those order forms in the backs of magazines?
"The Northwest School of Taxidermy."
Has the trade changed much since the '60s?
"Not that much, actually. The old-style eyeballs were all handmade in Germany. By the middle of this century the Van Dykes started doing all the eyes in this country.
"Taxidermy is a Greek-derived word. Taxi means to move or rearrange and dermy means skin. In essence, taxidermy means to move or rearrange skin. Everything you see in taxidermy is an illusion; it's a sculpted manikin inside of a leather hide or a bird skin or a fish skin."
How long does a mount last?
"There are specimens preserved and mounted that go back to the 1500s. During the Victorian Era, birds were real popular. People would often have their pet cats or dogs preserved by taxidermists."
Let's say a hunter brings in a deer he or she has harvested. What's the routine?
"The first thing we do is have the hide sent out to be commercially leather tanned. It chemically alters the make-up of the hide. We have a lifetime warranty on the work we do. None of our products will ever shrink or rot."
How long have you been a full-time taxidermist?
"For 25 years, six days a week."
Your first mount?
"A domestic chicken."
I'm not even going there.
"It was for a country kitchen decor kind of thing — a laying hen in a basket."
"I'm a waterfowl collector. I go all over North America trying to round up all the species. We're going to go to Greenland next so I can pick up a king eider. They're one of the tougher species to find."
Like the late artist John James Audubon, you shoot them.
"Yes, I don't go after numbers of ducks. I just want a nice drake and hen representation of each species to mount for my private collection. Living on the Kankakee River, you can probably see about everything migrating through at one point or another."
Yeah, besides the more common mallards, teal and wood ducks, I've added ducks like hooded mergansers, redheads, buffleheads and pie-billed grebes to my bird list. A drake wood duck is a beautiful creature.
"A lot of people don't realize, but you get 10 miles out on Lake Michigan and you can identify a ton of sea ducks that you would normally think of as West or East Coast inhabitants only. Oldsquaws, scoters and eiders all with the city of Chicago in the background."
Tell me the story of the snowy owl you have displayed here.
"We do a real good job with our reproductions. That snowy owl is actually a domestic white goose. We manipulated the feathers and painted the markings of a snowy owl on it."
It sure fooled me.
"We've had the (Department of Natural Resources) come in and really get excited about that 'owl' mounted with no paperwork. I'll tell them, 'You better take a closer look at that before you get hot under the collar; it's a reproduction.'"
How many taxidermists do you and your dad employ?
"A dozen all together; about half are full-time."
You employ some fantastic wood workers as well.
"We have three full-time guys doing the furniture. The tables and chairs are made of either walnut, oak or recycled barn wood."
Is Ed Sr. going to hang up the paint brush any time soon?
"Dad does what he wants to do. He does a lot of the finishing work, fish painting and a lot of the bird work. He does it because he likes it."
Your son?
"Adam is 10; he's all about hunting and fishing right now. I won't push him into anything. Time will tell if he becomes interested in taxidermy."
It's always a pleasure interviewing folks like the Leeps who enjoy what they do for a living. Plus, I got to interview my first duck collector.

i will only drink coke if i'm desperate
I used to be a Cokeacholic (went cold turkey for New Year's 1995). If I drink pop now it's Sprite so it's in the Coca Cola family still! Could never stand Pepsi! http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_20_7.gif
I prefer Pepsi - nicer taste!!!!
Coke. Always. Coke. Diet Coke. Love it. I don't drink coffee, I don't smoke, rarely have any alcohol, and don't take any medicines, really. So Diet Coke is my drug of choice.:lol:
posted on your other thread - Coke is what we drink here in Atlanta. Is there really anything else? ;)
I love Coke (especially Cherry Coke) and cannot stand the taste of Pepsi. Unfortunately my campus switched contracts last August and now only Pepsi products are available on campus.
I like them both equaly
Coke for sure!
pepsi, pepsi, pepsi, pepsi, anytime.... I do like cherry coke though;)
I can't vote... I love Diet Coke with Lime and Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi equally..
Diet Vanilla coke is my fave!!!!! Tastey!!
MICKEY likes COKE! I know, MT Pockets at the Whispering Canyon Cafe told me so!

Gear Review
Good bang for the buck
I picked one of these up last season and ended up spending the majority of the season wearing it. It's my first softshell and I definitely like the added freedom of movement that it brings. Out here in Salt Lake it repels any sort of precipitation on the mountain. I'm 6'2" with long arms and broad shoulders and got an XL and it fits just right: loose but not park steeze.
It's too bad they didn't do the absinthe color again since that's what I got and it is bright neon green. Love it. Like radioactive gumby.
Only thing I'd love is an external pocket that isn't part of the vents. I drop my phone down into the chest vent, but they're so deep that I have to dig around to get it out sometimes.

Feb 3rd 2012 4:14AM Oh I see, you think im a typical jock and all i do is play sports. Well, ill admit i am a nerd to in the sense that i have 5 85s, 3 of which are raiders, 1 of which is heroic raiding. I do game alot, and i get my competitive edge from playing sports. It works differently for everyone sure, but sports always will have the dominated edge. It's undisputed. Take ALL gamers, theyll say sports suck. Take ALL Sports players, theyll say games are for weak dorks. Take the rest of the people and slightly mention WoW. Theyll look at you as if you are speaking another language. Take rest of people and slightly mention a few sports. They will know more about it and be more involved than with this game. You and everyone else who downvotes this and upvotes your statement are just another pile of stereotypical south park badass behind the computer desk. If technology ended today, All the hardcore 40h per week gamers would be last on the list of survivors. I suppose you think being a hardcore CoD player makes you unreal at actual warfare? Before you go ahead and say all warfare is stupid blah blah blah, what happends if you were drafted, or any of these people for that matter? Actually, id be glad to have you in there, gotta send in some kind of decoy in the front lines. Gamers dont control shit, Geeks definitely contribute to good and bad things of the world. There are no stadiums for gamers except for a flimsy table at blizzcon. Athletes make money, not gamers. Get used to it.

Hey everyone,
I play and love MagBlast for quite some time now. We started playing with the second edition and picked up the third edition as soon as it became available and played it a lot over the last years.
Last night however we ran into an inconsistency on some cards and the instructions. Basically it boils down to the question "ship", "fleet ship" and "command ship" what is what and which of those can be targeted.
Here is what happened:
The Race: "The brotherhood of Peace" has the special ability: "Three times per game during your Discard phase, you may transfer a BLAST from one of your fleet ships to an opponent's fleet ship.
Naturally I told my opponent she can't take the blast off her "command ship" and distribute it, because the card says "fleet ship". She then argued, that the fighter/bomber action card also says: "play on a fleet ship" but can be played on a "command ship". I was surprised to read that the fighter in her hand actually read "fleet ship". A quick look into the instructions however explains in detail how and when a fighter/bomber is able to attack a "command ship".
Now either the fighter/bomber cannot attack "command ships" and all rules are kept consistent for "fleet ships" being the ships around the "command ship" and "ships" being "command ships" and "fleet ships" (actually stated like this on the first page of the instructions) or the examples for fighters/bombers in the instructions are correct and "command ships" count as "fleet ships", therefore destroying all my MagBlast beliefs
Any Ideas on that particular problem? - Misprint? - Did I play the game wrong all these years? - Did I overlook something?
btw: for the 4th edition which I am desperately waiting for, the race "Recyclons v4OK" needs to be weakened we always take them out in multiplayer because they result into card dominance of one player.

Love prawns? Need inspiration for a dinner party or a special meal? From the classic prawn cocktail to Thai prawn salads, we've plenty of prawn recipes that'll get your meal off to a great start.
A wonderfully creamy and lightly spiced soup. Cooked prawns are added to a curried cream soup base. Serve with fresh crusty bread. You can also use any other shellfish, such as lobster or crab.
Prawns are marinated in lemon, garlic and parsley for 30 minutes, then barbecued. Serve these succulent prawns as a starter or main. This marinade also works well with scallops.
Prawns cooked in butter, garlic, lemon juice and parsley are even better with the help of Dijon mustard. Serve with fresh crusty bread.
Amazing fresh, easy prawn toast. Now you can make this delicious Chinese dim sum favourite at home.
This is a Greek recipe for prawn saganaki which is great as a starter or meze. It is a delicious dish that I'd only tried in restaurants, but when I tried to make it at home I found that I can make it just as well. Serve with nice crusty bread to mop up all the gorgeous sauce.

I agree that Leilani is no more of a mouthful than Layani, they're still both three syllables. Out of all of the names you mentioned, Leilani is by far my favorite. I really, really strongly dislike Leiani, Leiarni, and Laarni. If you do choose to invent something, Layani and Layarni look the best, but still aren't very pleasant looking or sounding to me. What about Leila, Laila, or Layla? It's a real name that means "night" in Arabic, and was the name of a main character in a series of romantic poems that became popular in Arabia and Persia.

Out of the spellings you've suggested, I would choose Layani, as I think this is the simplest way to get to the pronounciation you want. However you probably won't find much support for creative spellings on this site!
One name that sounds similar to Layani is Leonie (Lee-oh-nee), which is still unusual and very pretty.
Alternatively, Leiarna could be substituted for Leona (Le-oh-na), Liana/Lianna or Leana/Leanna (Lee-ah-na).Girls: Alice, Anna, Astrid, Beatrice, Clara, Elodie, Emily, Evelyn, Hannah, Hermione, Lorna, Phoebe, Sophie, Sylvia
Boys: Andrew, Arthur, Elliot, Griffin, Hamish, Henry, Leopold, Martin, Peter, Robin, Rupert, Thomas, Tobias, William
Guilty Pleasures: Athena, Damaris, Digory, Emrys, Ganymede, Hester, Jessamine, Phineas, Myrtle, Nymeria, Nyx

I would keep Leilani but come up with an easier nickname.
Lily, Laney/Lani, Leila.
I agree as the alliteration is not for everyone.
What about Noelani? It's pretty similar.
and btw berries are name purists so this would be the wrong place to be asking for the best spelling variations or alternations of a name.

Suspected gunman in LA Airport shooting was a Sallies grad The suspected gunman in the Los Angeles airport shooting is a 23-year-old man from Pennsville, New Jersey, who was a graduate of Salesianum School in 2008. His family still lives in Pennsville. Officials say Paul Ciancia had a lot of ammunition, as well as a note indicating a grudge against T-S-A agents and "pigs." A source says the note talked about T-S-A searches being violations of his constitutional rights. Officials say Ciancia had at least 150 rounds of ammunition when he opened fire, killing a T-S-A agent and wounding several people as others in the panicked terminal ran for cover. Two other T-S-A employees are among the wounded. The dead man, 39-year-old Gerardo Hernandez, is the first T-S-A agent to die in the line-of-duty in the agency's 12-year history. Police shot the gunman four times, and he's in custody at a hospital. A New Jersey police chief says Paul's father called around the time of the airport attack to report that his son had sent a suicidal text message and he needed to find him. Pennsville Police Chief Allen Cummings said the father reported Friday that his son, Ciancia, sent the text to a sibling. The Pennsville chief called Los Angeles police and they checked Ciancia's apartment, where roommates said they saw him Thursday, and he was fine. It wasn't clear if the Los Angeles police visited before or after the shooting. |

I'm going with ECO4-575L-GU24 for my kitchen recessed lighting. I just want to confirm I can use the Cree H4 - 4" Recessed Housing with GU24 Socket. It seems like it should work but it also say "Only for use with Cree LR4 Series." |
Follow-Up Postings:
Since they are both Cree products, I would suggest contacting Cree directly. Or just buy one and see for yourself -- that is what I did with the Nora and Elco cans. |
If you are wondering about whether the inspector will disallow the installation of the ECO4 (or the 6") in a housing that wasn't specifically listed for it, but fits okay, I am also wondering that. I'm about to install 22 GU24 cans in my kitchen and planning to use the 6" Cree GU24 LEDs, in Elco GU24 cans. The Elco and Nora housings are half the price of the CREE. The Nora has the GU24 socket screwed to the top of the can -- the wire length on the 4" ECO-GU24 makes it a bit of a difficult reach to attach unless you have small hands. Since the 6" ECO GU24 no longer comes with the pigtail, I don't think it can be used with the fixed-attachment Nora can. The Elco housings have "adjustable" socket position. |
I emailed Cree product support. I asked about the h4 but also inquired whether there is a led specific/title 24 housing they would suggest to go with the eco4-gu24. I'll post what they have to say. |
- Posted by newtoremodel (My Page) on Mon, May 28, 12 at 22:09
The Eco4 GU 24 will not fit in the Cree H4 housing. The Cree H4 is closer to 5 inches than 4. I emailed Cree several months ago about the exact same thing. My contractor was able to find 4" IC new construction housing for the Eco4 GU24 which I'm planning to use. I noticed that the Eco4 GU24s were available online a few weeks ago. Are they available in store now? I've been waiting for months. If you need the details of the housing I'm using, let me know and I'll get them for you. |
I think that the GU24 version of the Eco4 is only available online (HD). It fits okay in both the Nora and the Elco GU24 4" housings, but the Elco is a bit easier since the socket isn't screwed to the top of the can. |
Yes, Cree confirmed the eco4 would not fit the h4. They even sent a photo to illustrate the point. newtoremodel - Yes, I'd like to hear another option that would work. I'll check the Elco as well. It sure would be nice if Home Depot made a few pairing suggestions with the eco4 gu24. |
- Posted by newtoremodel (My Page) on Wed, May 30, 12 at 1:32
The housing our contractor has is from Elite - Catalog # B4-GU24-IC-AT-W. The socket has a small amount of adjustment since it's attached to a plate that slides up and down. |

More reviews by Jennyfurdouglas
I do love, love, love my setting / translucent powders and this beauty by Dior is no exception!! Delicate, pink, gentle sparkles, softly rose fragranced... gorgeous packaging - hmmmm, yep Love!!
You don't have to be a setting powder junkie like me to adore this product, it is perfection! They have hit the nail on the head with this powder. Not overstated in any way, just perfect! It is very finely milled, soft and pink and settles into your face with a lovely rosy glow, not shiny just a gentle hint of sparkle, just enough! The first time I wore it I got a lot of compliments on my makeup, people saying I looked well, I think it was the powder ;)! It has a soft rose fragrance and is not overpowering at all as a lot of rose scents can be.
As with all Dior, it is high end. I paid $75 from Myer, (Garden City in Perth Western Australia) but I have seen it on Strawberry.net for $65 with 10% discount at checkout, but then you have to add shipping.
Dior perfection! Gorgeous crystal clear tub with a silver lid embossed with Dior. Simple Elegant, perfection!
Love it! Can be used on any skin type as it is translucent, and it looks wonderful on the dresser :)!
Hope this helped!

It was love at first sight when I saw this loose powder!!! I had to have it when I saw it even though I am still struggling to finish several pots/compacts of loose and pressed powders. Why? Because this is sparkly, pink and smells of ROSES! *shamefaced* Not to mention beautiful packaging and the cutest and softest puff ever...I couldn't leave Sephora without bringing it home. I think lots of people must have felt this way because there were only about 2 of these left in the store.
The powder is translucent, very very finely milled and the sweetest rose pink in colour. Dior says to apply on the t-zone and on areas that catch the light but I just use it as an all-over loose powder. Be warned that it is rather sparkly especially in yellow light. I would not call this powder glittery because glitter reminds me of big chunks of stuff. This is more like very tiny yet visible sparkles. In daylight, I think the sparkles are hardly visible. I don't mind the sparkles that much although I wish that Dior toned it down a little. Mostly, people will see the rosy glow that Dior promises. Not Twilight vampire sparkle.
The powder will suit all skin tones because it really goes on transparent and will not leave a coloured cast. It lasts all day and does not make the skin oilier. Although it is rather expensive, I think I am loving it more than my NARS Light Reflecting Powder (both pressed and loose) NARS is good but has a little chalky finish, the finish of this powder impresses me more. Overall, if you're looking for a glowy finish, this could be THE one :-)

"Another Topamax side effect?" | |
First of all, what a great group you are! I'm so grateful to have stumbled into the neighborhood, even in my Topamax fog. I've been reading about others' side effects, most of which I'm experiencing now -- particularly the "box of rocks" syndrome. Has anyone else had facial muscle twitches as a side effect of Topamax? I haven't come across that one so far in my reading, but I'm having it, and it's driving me nuts. The twitches are barely perceptible except to me -- like those tiny eyelid tics that occur sometimes from fatigue. I feel them primarily in my eyes and lips. My neurologist says she has never heard of this as a side effect. Is anyone else out there twitching? | |

i get the twitches, but have had it before taking Topamax. Sometimes stress or if your electrolites are low can cause it. | |

I've been on Topamax for about 2 months and STILL get the tingling in my fingers and feet every day, but I don't think that I've had any facial twitching. My eyelids twitch sometimes, but that happened way before I took Topamax. However, last week for about a half hour or so out of nowhere, the very tip of my nose went numb... it was the strangest feeling I've ever had. I have a feeling that the Topamax was doing that... it felt like there was a hair stuck to my nose but there wasn't. Weird. | |

Thanks so much for your pointer to that site. I must have read for half an hour straight about other people's Topamax side effects, and sure enough, a number of them cited tingling and even some muscle twitching in the face. At least I know what this is probably about, and there's comfort in that. I appreciate your help! | |

Kris, your description of the facial twitching is exactly what I was experiencing, and I'm now convinced it was a side effect of Topamax. It began to diminish as I reduced my dosage, and it was gone within a few days of my last 25 mg pill. | |

Hi, folks. During a ten-month continuous headache framed in milder agony, I travelled the roller coaster of depakote, topamax, and neurontin (and other meds). The whole time, my eye twitched and my mouth and chin tickled. | |

Recap | Box Score | Photos | Highlights & Reaction | #RTZ Digital Rundown
The post-game mood was a little strange on Friday night at Air Canada Centre.
On one hand, the Raptors had just lost to the New York Knicks 108-100. Carmelo Anthony scored 30 points and Amar'e Stoudemire scored a season-high 24 points to go with 11 rebounds. On the other hand, thanks to a Brooklyn Nets loss against the Atlanta Hawks (that happened while Raptors head coach Dwane Casey was conducting his post-game press conference), Toronto clinched a division title.
With an "Atlantic is Ours" t-shirt slung over each player's chair in the losing locker room, the vibe alternated between happy with the accomplishment and annoyed over the night's result. While the Raptors were unable to slow Stoudemire or Anthony and had their own offense fall apart in the fourth quarter, they were able to cross of the next goal on their to-do list. For the second time in 19 seasons, the Raptors are the class of the Atlantic.
"It sucks that we lost the game, especially with us trying to hold the third spot," DeMar DeRozan said. "But it feels great to win the division. I don't think anybody would have picked us to win it. That's definitely a great accomplishment."
Sophomore Terrence Ross wasted no time slipping on the shirt, smiling to himself in his locker as he slid his feet into a pair of unworn Jordans fresh out of the box.
"It feels good [to put this on]," Ross said. "We worked so hard for it. It feels right. It's a great feeling knowing we went out and proved everybody wrong."
From the early days of training camp when the topic of tanking was mentioned daily, to the struggles prior to the trade in December that brought Patrick Patterson, Greivis Vasquez, Chuck Hayes and John Salmons to Toronto in exchange for Rudy Gay, Aaron Gray and Quincy Acy, the players within the locker room banded together.
While everyone on the outside was plotting how to make the roster better for the future, those on the roster was plotting how to make the postseason.
"All we have is each other so we've got to go out there each day and ball out for each other," Ross said. "Play like it's our last game."
Casey didn't want to focus too much on the division title, but did acknowledge how far his squad has come since the season opened in October.
"It's great for the fans," Casey said. "I'm excited for the fans. This franchise has had a lot of ups and downs. It's funny how the expectations change. We still have some growing to do. We have a great foundation from where we are. Now we just want to be ready to go into the playoffs with some momentum."
Toronto has three games left in the regular season before their first postseason appearance in five years. Although the Atlantic division has been clinched, the team is still battling the Chicago Bulls for the third spot in the Eastern Conference. While media members were conducting interviews with Raptors players Friday night, various relevant scores were being passed across the room as players wanted to keep up with the standings as they were happening.
"It's definitely fun from a competitor standpoint because this is the game we love," DeRozan said. "You love to see what everybody is doing around the league. You've got a lot of teams, in both conferences, fighting for spots. It makes it that much more interesting and you've got to play down to the last game."
After five years in Toronto, both DeRozan and Amir Johnson were reflective on the accomplishment and what it meant for the city and its fans.
"I've been here for five years," Johnson said. "To make the improvement and to come out as division champs is a proud, proud moment. We have a lot more to go. We're still working hard and we've got to keep going."

First Look: DreamWorks' CG / Hand-Drawn Hybrid 'Me and My Shadow'
Posted on Tuesday, July 24th, 2012 by Angie Han
It wasn't so very long ago that CG animation felt cutting-edge and new, but these days it's become so ubiquitous we hardly even notice it anymore. Instead, what feels fresh again are more traditional animation methods. DreamWorks Animation's Me and My Shadow combines CG and hand-drawn animation to tell the story of "the world's most boring human" Daniel (voiced by Book of Mormon's Josh Gad) and his bored shadow (voiced by Bill Hader), who longs for a more exciting life.
The shadow finally gets his chance, albeit not necessarily in the way he'd hoped. When events in the shadow world put Daniel's life in danger, Shadow Dan breaks the rules and takes control of his person. The two then set off on an adventure to stop the shadow villain and his nefarious plans to take over the human world. Check out the adorable first poster after the jump.

Comments about Renthal Kevlar-Reinforced Dual-Compound Motorcycle Grips:
These are great grips I don't think I will run anything else. I've heard through other reviews on a different site that the only glue to use on these grips is renthal glue because anything else will melt the grips. I have not experienced this first hand. Just here say.
Great Grips!

These are great for grip, strength, ect. but seem a little short for large hands, especially when using handguards.

About Group Psychotherapy at CC SCS
Group therapy is a powerful tool for growth and change. Most of our groups range from 5-8 individuals who meet and ultimately share their struggles and concerns with the helpful facilitation of a group therapist. The power of psychotherapy process groups lies in the unique opportunity to receive multiple perspectives, support, encouragement, and feedback from other individuals in a safe and confidential environment. These interpersonal interactions can provide group members an opportunity to deepen their level of self-awareness and to learn how they relate to others. Individuals in group can develop new ways of relating to people, share experiences that others can relate to, and gain more awareness about how they relate to others and the interpersonal patterns they engage in. Further, group provides opportunities to learn about oneself through others and a safe space to practice new and experimental behaviors and/or ways of communicating.
Groups range in terms of structure. However, most groups at the Connecticut College Counseling Services tend to be unstructured. The therapist provides an opportunity for a brief check-in at the start of group, but after this check-in, it is the group members' responsibility to bring any issues to the group that they feel are important. There isn't a specific topic for each group session. In addition, a primary focus of therapy in the group is the interaction among group members. Members are encouraged to give support and feedback to others, and to work with the reactions and responses that other members' contributions bring up for them.
How You Can Get the Most from Group Therapy
1. Be yourself. Start where you are, not how you think others want you to be. Change begins with whatever you feel comfortable enough to disclose.
2. Define goals. Take time to define your goals before each session - yet remain flexible to the change that occurs throughout the group process.
3. Recognize and respect your pace for getting involved in the group. Some members will always be ready to discuss their thoughts and feelings; others need more time to gain feelings of trust and security. By respecting your needs you are learning self-acceptance. If you are having a difficult time discussing your problems within the group, ask the group to help you.
4. Take time for yourself. You have the right to take group time to talk about yourself. Many people feel that other's issues are more important, while some have a difficult time facing feelings, or have fears of appearing "weak." By recognizing the reluctances you are beginning the growth process.
5. Focus on what is important to you. With time being limited, it is important to try focusing on the main ideas, thoughts, and feelings.
6. Recognize and express reactions and feelings. Pay close attention to what you are feeling as you are sharing or others are sharing.
7. Be aware of censored thoughts and feelings. Learn to express thoughts and feelings, without censorship, in order to enable exploration, resolution of interpersonal conflicts, self-affirmation, and assertion.
8. Give and receive feedback. Giving and receiving feedback can be a major part of your experience in group therapy. The purpose is to help others identify patterns, personal presentations, unrecognized attitudes, and inconsistencies. Feedback can ultimately be one of the most effective ways to deepen a relationship.

~ The GW Portion of the Website is a Club for Members Only ~
The Early Military Button Portion is Open To The Public and New Additions Are Added Weekly..
Welcome to Isabela's George Washington Inaugural button website. This website is not only going to study GWI buttons, but post-colonial U.S. Military buttons, and various 18th Century engraved objects. Through years of research into these historical GWI buttons, I found it just as important to study all the various engraved arts from the different cultures around the world. So this site will have a multitude of 17th & 18th century engraved objects that have associated links of symbolism to the various ancient cultures around the world. I found it necessary to study all ancient engraved objects to unlock the hidden symbolism that is secretly embedded in George Washington Inaugural, New Nation Tribute, and Jacobite Secret Society buttons. As I studied all these various ancient engraved objects, I found the information and skills within the art of engraving to be tightly controlled by religions, birthrights-bloodlines, and Freemason guilds. So, not only will we study these adjacent engraved fields, but we will also have to briefly look into the men's lives who created these engraved objects. I found it necessary to expand the study of the engraving arts into family bloodlines, nationality allegiances and religious beliefs. So, I will try to provide as much historical and pertinent information of each engraved artifact as I add it into my library's reference section. I will be happy to work with any knowledgable person or button enthusiast that can offer their knowledge in their specialty field of engraving. Your picture contributions and information will help me create a worldwide public database that will enhance the knowledge of ancient engravings in various items. I will do my best to provide the most accurate information on any known engravings, makers, or manufactures. So, all collectors and researchers should note, this website is a "Work in Progress", and I will update the website's sections as new information presents itself. I specifically designed this website to be user friendly and completely interactive between others and myself researchers. So, if your a treasure hunter and find a really neat historical button or engraved object on a dig, or someone just looking to find out some historical information of interest, just shoot me a quick call or e-mail if you can not find it within the section of interest.
I know people are very hesitant to share their own secret wealth of unknown knowledge. Obtaining this information is often the result of one's obsessive passion which is usually at the cost of both personal and their family sacrifice. Some of you know exactly what I am saying as I utter the words repeatedly night after night, "God Bless my wife Debra and my daughter Isabela for their patience and understanding". But this is the heavy burden obsessive researcher like myself live with day after day. I do not know If I can change your mind or attitude in the Spirit of Sharing with the world's internet community with little reward or recognition; but let me say I understand the feeling of your selfishness that your personal sacrifice should not go free without a price! This is just another morality reminder of what our society has become with the selfishness of our own personal egos and greed. How often we are quick to condemn others for there untrustworthy actions, but we only contribute in ways we feel are acceptable to the false limits we place. So aside from ones own moral degradation in the Spirit of sharing, let me tell you what the real price is. It your children and your grandchildren's future in knowing the real truth and not what others say is the truth in your hobby. You see, I understand this important point all too well, because I am fortunate enough to have stumbled upon unknown information through years of long study, which was at the cost of personal family sacrifice. To put it mildly, years of unnecessary roadblocks or false paths of incorrect information by scholars that was intentionally or inadvertently put in place. One can only use conjecture to surmise if this inaccurate information was to distract us or point us away in the wrong direction from the truth. This is the true cost of the future collectors in our favorite hobbies or areas of study. So for this reason I labor painlessly with some error, but in the correct Spirit of sharing knowledge for the advancement of truth in the hobby I have come to passionately love. So the next time your kids ask how much longer or your wife asks you when your coming to bed, let them be proud knowing that you are contributing outside of your own selfish pursuit to help better our society in the hobby community. – Robert J. Silverstein
Listed below are the various George Washington Inaugural buttons, Post-Colonial U.S. Military buttons, and 17th & 18th century engraved objects. All the various buttons and engraved objects are displayed within it's own boxed section. When you click on the artifact section you are interested in, it will lead into the pages containing either all the known example types, or the examples I have been able to upload so far. I will do my best to provide you with the best quality photos utilizing real specimens from either my own collection or other people's submissions. So, this should help you easily identify the various engraved objects from the website's archives straightforward and uncomplicated. Most sections will not have reproductions, but some sections will. I believe it is important for collectors and researchers to study both! Just remember to check the site often because collectors are constantly contributing information and pictures from their own collections. Also, metal detector enthusiasts have been graciously offering pictures of their new finds. One last note, anyone who own a George Washington Inaugural button I ask that you please take a few minutes and photo your button. I am trying to catalog every known specimen to exist! Since I began collecting GWI buttons 20 years ago there was only 650 known. By tracking over the years all the specimens that were either sold in auctions or private sales, I estimate there are around 1350. My goal for this website is to make the GWI library complete one day for future collectors, and also attract new collectors into the field of GWI button collecting. Just remember once again, it is only with your help with contributions of information and pictures that I can turn this web site's library into a valuable tool for all future American Political Button collectors and researchers of engraved historical memorabilia.

A bloody, bawdy Western set in the antebellum South, Quentin Tarantino's latest history rewrite is unbalanced but frequently entertaining. Expectations swelled to astronomical heights following his ingenious twist on World War II via "Inglorious Basterds" in 2009, so naturally, "Django Unchained" had a lot to live up to. After a promising first act, though, it becomes evident that "Django" is the result of a director stuck in his comfort zone: A haven easily masked by the film's controversial subject matter.
"Django" wastes no time in jumping right into the action, as traveling dentist/bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz) frees Django (Jamie Foxx) in a cunning, violent turn of tables on his stupefied captors. The film hits the ground running from there and seems all but unstoppable. We watch in delight as Dr. Schultz takes Django under his wing as a fellow bounty hunter – taking out slave-owners, blowing up Ku Klux Klan members and donning one of the slickest blue suits to ever hit the silver screen. This inspired first hour is chockfull of laughs, stemming primarily from Waltz and a brilliant scene of Klan members arguing about the eyeholes in their masks.
Sadly, once Leonardo DiCaprio arrives as the dastardly slave-owner Calvin Candie, the film takes a turn for the exhausting and trite. Dr. Schultz and Django travel to Calvin's plantation, Candyland, with the intention of freeing Django's wife Broomhilda (the enormously underused Kerry Washington). Samuel L. Jackson steals the film's second act as the stereotypical obedient slave who tirelessly humiliates his fellow slaves. DiCaprio, on the other hand, is dreadfully one-note in a performance that should've chewed the scenery for all its worth. Aside from one sweltering monologue, he simply does not command the screen and sticks out like a sore thumb in an otherwise phenomenal cast.
The film's third act is just as grisly and outrageous as one would expect from a Tarantino film, but does not possess the same manic gusto of his past finales (the diner scene in "Pulp Fiction" or the movie theater fire of "Inglorious Basterds"). The entire thing just seems too rushed and spelled-out for the audience, as if Tarantino knew that people would come for the bloodshed but failed to write an ending with a little more audacity. Sure, it's a nod to spaghetti Westerns, but those extra pinches of intelligent dialogue, greater significance and innovative storytelling are disappointingly absent.
Waltz walks away with the entire movie and is the only character that is consistently fascinating with more than a surface-layer of emotional depth. If he had not already won an Oscar for his villainous turn in "Basterds" two years back, he would be a shoe-in for a supporting actor nod come January. Foxx is clearly having a ball as Django – delivering a slew of one-liners that are sure to become instant classics – but doesn't really get to let loose until the very end and has an underdeveloped relationship with Washington's character. There were no real stakes for Django and Broomhilda to be reunited, but it was nice to see them together regardless.
A killer soundtrack and suitably gorgeous cinematography round out the film's highlights, with a particularly memorable shot of a blood-spattered cotton field. Tarantino certainly has a signature style that is visually and audibly appealing, and the easy-to-please and hardcore Tarantino fans will undoubtedly argue that the man can do no wrong. While he is a top-notch filmmaker who has made yet another distinctive flick, "Django Unchained" ultimately suffers from tremendous style with very little substance.

Sounds like a broken door spring. Have you tried releasing the opener and operating the door by hand? |
- Posted by old_man_bill (My Page) on Tue, Sep 9, 08 at 21:57
Have a wall switch that the green light is flashing constantly. Only thing recently done was battery changed in keyless remote. Both door sensors are lit 1 green, 1 yellow. No manual left by previous owners. |

If you have a wall switch with 3 buttons, hold the one in that has a lock icon on it for 3 seconds and release. Other than the flashing light what problem are you having? |

I just replaced the battery in my garage door opener remote, but I don't know if it's the right size. I replaced it with an Energizer 2032 3.0 volt and it doesn't work. Sears Canada 139.53681B There are 2 additional circular buttons (smaller than the big thumb button) on the remote. None of them are labeled. Do I need to synch this remote somehow by pressing one of these buttons for a couple seconds or something? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance! |
- Posted by don_1_2006 (My Page) on Thu, Sep 11, 08 at 17:20
Make sure you didn't install the battery upside down. You shouldn't need to do anything more. Was it working before you replaced the battery? |

Today's airport travelators have always been disappointingly pale imitations of these, but now in Paris we may be seeing the true birth of this wonderfully dangerous mode of mass transportation. Its already as fast as a bus, but when they can crank them up to motorway speeds... well, lets just say this may have a better chance of having cities designed around it than certain other recent innovations."
