lol! I am no help either. I LOVE Hudson! LOVE LOVE LOVE! I too have been guilty of not popping on. School work is kicking my butt this year and I have no time at work since I am no longer in the computer lab. Miss this board like crazy!
Sorry, I haven't been around in ages. It has just been too busy here of late.
My (very late) two cents, is I like Ethan, Hudson and Dean in that order. As a name, I really, really love Hudson and we had considered it for our boy. A friend named her boy that though so it went out the window. I put it second though as I like the idea of not having three -son names.
Obviously, I really like Hayden too, seeing as I named my son that
I don't know how I missed getting in on the "name game." Have you guys settled on anything?
We were seriously considering Hudson and Mason (another -son name). I love the sound of Hudson Dale.
Update us and let us know what you are considering now that you're getting even closer to meeting son #3.
We are pretty sure that we're going with Hudson (but don't mention it on Facebook...our families can be quite pushy about names, so we don't reveal the name until after baby is born).
MIL loves Mason. My mom has mentioned loving the name Hudson, since she's heard that our neighbor kid is named Hudson. So I'm sure she will be giddy if we definitely decide on that.
I'm having my moments where I'm just ready to have baby right now, so I can get back to my old self, but then I bring myself back to reality and remember how much work having a newborn is, and then I'm fine with being pregnant longer I gotta admit that I'm not much of a newborn person. I like them when they start sitting up, and LOVE it when they start crawling/walking. One of my favorite things about my kids is watching them explore their surroundings and experience things for the first time. I much prefer that to the "bump on a log" stage lol!
And man, I'm realizing how much I need a new siggy pic! I can't believe the one below is almost a year old!! Getting those 2 to pose together these days is about impossible!! Wonder what I can find to replace it??
LOL on the siggy, Steph. I know what you mean. The one I have is like almost 3 years old. I may dig out an old baby photo of Logan to use instead.
We didn't tell anyone Logan's name ahead of time either. Our families would both find fault with anything we chose, so we kept it to ourselves. Of course, that was back in the days before facebook, so really, it wasn't that hard.
I'm one of those who loved the newborn stage. I was scared to death about facing the other stages, but I was looking forward to the "bump on a log" stage. Of course, God has a sense of humor and blessed me with a baby who wouldn't sleep for more than 2 hours until after he turned 3 years old. So I don't know if I really enjoyed that phase as much as I had thought I would.
Soak up all the stages as much as you can. It's all part of the miracle, right?
Hang in there!
I think that Carson ruined the whole "bump on a log" stage for me. He was colic-y, and had to be held all the time during the day. He would take an hour to nurse, and I felt like I had no arms for the first 4 months of his life. Guess I got burnt out on holding babies?? lol!

Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Reminds Investors Of Lead Plaintiff Deadline In Class Action Lawsuit Against UniTek Global Services, Inc.
NEW YORK, April 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC remind investors that they have until June 18, 2013 to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against UniTek Global Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNTK), if they purchased the Company's securities during the period between May 18, 2011 and April 12, 2013, inclusive (the "Class Period"). This action is pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
On April 12, 2013 UniTek announced that its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the interim periods ended March 31, 2012, June 30, 2012 and September 29, 2012 (the "2012 Fiscal Quarters"), the interim period ended October 1, 2011 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 should no longer be relied upon. The Company also disclosed that, "as a result of an ongoing internal investigation being conducted by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, with the assistance of outside independent counsel and a forensic accounting firm, it was determined that several employees of the Company's Pinnacle Wireless subsidiary engaged in fraudulent activities that resulted in improper revenue recognition." UniTek announced that the several employees were terminated including the Company's CFO.

University of Vermont
What is LANDS?
The Land Stewardship Program (LANDS) is a unique partnership between the University of
Vermont (UVM) Rubenstein School of
Natural Resources (RSENR) and the Student
Conservation Association (SCA). In their traditional roles, RSENR provides
undergraduates with a high quality environmental education for the 21st
century, and the SCA provides young people with meaningful conservation service
experience in the professional world. LANDS is the merger of these two goals –
a College Conservation Corps. LANDS crews provide on-the-ground support to land
management agencies, and in exchange receive tremendous real world education,
as well as a modest stipend. In other
words, LANDS is service-learning to address today's conservation needs. The name LANDS is a creative amalgamation of the words Land and Stewardship.
What kinds of programs does LANDS offer?
LANDS Program started in 2007 with a Summer Internship Program with
option of taking internship credits. Started in the Fall of 2014, LANDS
is offering a Semester Program in Vermont through the University of
Vermont, Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources.
This program offers both the same type of hands on training and
work experiences that are the hallmark of the Summer Internship
Program. In addition, university credits needed for graduation
for many majors are combined in this longer semester program.
Finally, through the continuing partnership with the Student
Conservation Association, training in skills such as Wildernes First Aid are
included in the program. Use in the links to the left to learn more
about these programs.
Land conservation and land management are changing. While the old threats such as loss of habitat and open space due to development still exist and are growing, they are compounded by new challenges like global warming, the need for biofuels to replace fossil fuels, and more recently, economic uncertainty. LANDS was created to address these challenges cost-effectively using advanced college students, at the same time training for the next generation of conservation practitioners.
What do LANDS crews
LANDS is about land stewardship, broadly defined. This includes anything from assessing a
property for rare plants before The Nature Conservancy purchases it, to
measuring carbon stocks in a forest, to evaluating the threat from invasive
species, to engaging in placed-based events with a local community. LANDS crew projects typically focus on
natural and cultural resource inventory, GPS and GIS mapping, report writing,
and public presentations. LANDS crews
tackle advanced projects not usually associated with traditional corps/crews.
Please visit Previous Projects to see LANDS deliverables and check out the Blog linked at the left to learn about the students weekly work.
Who does LANDS work
LANDS partners with a wide variety of land management
agencies, including federal, state, local and non-profit groups. Please visit Previous Projects and Partner Links to
see some of these partners.
A Crew of Interns?
LANDS projects are typically crew-based, much like the Civilian Conservation Corps, the SCA, and various state corps across the nation. However, due to the technical and professional nature of this experience and the projects, this is considered to be an internship. Participants work as a team but are given specific projects based on their experience and interest, like an internship – LANDS is a crew of interns.
Who are LANDS
LANDS interns are upper-level undergraduates and recent
graduates in natural resources and environmental fields. They come from across the country and abroad.
LANDS interns share many characteristics including:
-They work well in teams
-They love the outdoors
-They like hard work
-They have a positive attitude and persevere in difficult
-They have a variety of skills and are ready to put them to
Where does LANDS
LANDS is based in

Sorta new to the native grasses. Any that I can sow for a great lawn and cut it with the lawn mower? I live in Northwest Tennessee, zone 6/7
Follow-Up Postings:
The only native grass that I have seen recommended for a low-growing turf is buffalo grass. This is a naturally low-growing warm-season grass that needs little mowing. Buffalo grass lawns are usually started from plugs, which need a while to spread to make a solid turf. The biggest problem for you is that your climate is probably not real suitable for buffalo grass. It is native to dry short-and mixed-grass prairies of the Great Plains. Here in mid-Missouri, I have seen a couple successful buffalo grass lawns, but it is difficult to establish due to competition from cool-season grasses and weeds that invade before the buffalo grass can from a dense turf. If you want a native, wildlife-friendly, and low-maintenance landscape, I recommend that you go ahead and planat non-native turf grasses, but try reduce the area of turf by installing planting beds with native wildflowers, tall grasses, shrubs, and trees. Also, you will want to avoid some types of turf grasses that spread aggressively by runners. |

We have some kind of cute little grass that has come up all through our garden area. At first I worried that it was Bermuda because it was that low and fine, but I'd check on it now and then and it just didn't grow like Bermuda. At first I knew of only two small clumps maybe a foot across. Now it's coming up in a lot of places and has made some matted areas several feet long. We tend to have mowed paths through planted areas, so whatever feels like coming up is what we have. This grass seems to like our conditions: much improved red and yellow clay on sloping upland. If I can manage to ID it, I'll tell you what it is. I just got my Fedco order in with my book on IDing grasses. Have just been looking at some very nice websites, the very best is http://www.wildlifemanagement.info/publications/nwsg_9.pdf and also http://deltafarmpress.com/mag/farming_quail_coming_back/index.html I can tell you that our short grass is not described in the first article. I am sure it is native, as I haven't seen it anywhere else. The seedheads are unique, they are straight up stalks with a few side stems sticking up along just one side. All on a very small scale, usually the clump is running 2" high and the seedhead a total of 6" max. This is with some mowing, but if we'd mowed it really well or often I don't think it would have spread so much in just 2 summers. I can tell it would get taller if it had the chance, but not a whole lot taller. I've been digging up clumps to plant places where I want grass, and have offered to give some to a friend. If I could just find a photo though! If you can find a good site with native grass photos, please let me know via email. I might not get back here ever, I just came across this on a search. I usually hang out on Antique roses. Donna |

A lawn grows as an expanse of one,two or three species of grasses is not a "natural condition". Maintaining that single species, or few species of growing things takes work because mother nature wants to diversify.... A natural, native landscape usually consists of a mix of species that are left to grow and reproduce. A native lawn that you can mow is not really available. You may want to look into growing a mix of sedges - I don't see mowing them or even growing them to be lawn like as feasible though. Another alternative that you may be interested in is a "no-mow" lawn mixture. Its not native, its a mix of fine leafed fescues that are a slow growing alternative to a cool season lawn. It can be mowed - and usually only requires mowing a few times per year... |
Here is a link that might be useful: no mow lawn mix

For what its worth (and I'm no expert), I'm going to attempt a buffalo grass yard in north central Alabama, with mixed in bluestem, side oats, blue gramma on sections. It may not work, but it was the only yard type grass I could find to try. I can let you know how it comes out, but it will probably take a few years to see if it works. I ordered seed, so I'm going to try it that way. Ron |

By KEITH TAYLOR, Winchester Sun
Andrew Harrison wants to be a better player. That's why he isn't taking things personally when John Calipari make a point to his freshman point guard during a public or private setting. Sometimes those teaching lessons can get pretty loud especially when Calipari isn't happy with Harrison's play in practice or during a game.
"Every possession matters so much," Harrison said after Kentucky's 105-76 rout of Texas-Arlington earlier this week at Rupp Arena. "Coach Calipari is just trying to make me a better player and that's what I want to become. You just have to be prepared for this type of coaching and you'll be good. It's always tough from the beginning, but I feel like I'm getting better and I want to keep getting better every day."
Harrison missed Kentucky's two exhibition games and most of the blue-white game, but has started the first five games, tallying double figures in three of those contests. Harrison, averages 11 points per game and scored a career-high 15 points in the win over the Mavericks Tuesday night. A sign he's settling in at point guard, Harrison dished out six assists in his last game, also a career high. Harrison is steadily making the transition from high school to college.
"We're definitely getting back to having fun and it's a growing process," Harrison said. "Everybody knows how tough it is. That's what we signed up for. We just have to make sure we're always on top of our game and practice hard every day. I'm having fun and I'm still learning. The game we lost (against Michigan State), I almost cried myself to sleep, (but) I'm just getting better every day, That's the only thing that matters. "
Harrison's twin brother Aaron Harrison and classmate James Young give the Cats a one-two punch on the perimeter. Aaron tallied 28 points in a win over Robert Morris last Sunday, while Young netted 26 against Texas-Arlington. Andrew Harrison said getting the two players hot on the same night will require "consistency."
"Both of them are great players — probably one of the best at their position in the country," Harrison said. "My job is to make sure they're playing defense and stuff like that because scoring points comes easy to them two. That's what makes it fun."
When he's not sharing the ball with his brother or Young, he has more options in the paint.
"We have a great post up team with Dakari (Johnson), Willie (Cauley-Stein) and Julius (Randle) and even our bigger guards can post up as well," he said. 'We definitely need to work on that and get (the ball) into the post a lot more."
Harrison likes depending on Johnson, Cauley-Stein and Randle in the post in case of a defensive letdown, but added the Cats can't rely on help defense from the post players on a consistent basis.
"We just have to work on our communication," Harrison said. "It comes down to me, Aaron (Harrison) and James (Young) — the guards — just taking on the challenge. We need to stop our men one-on-one, so that's what we need to work on."
Calipari wants his team, especially Harrison, to become louder on both ends of the floor and Harrison said it starts with his vocal chords.
"It's different every play, but I definitely feel like I can talk louder," Harrison said. "We just have to talk more. That's what coach was talking about. We have to talk more and communicate more as a team. We'll be fine."

Van Duzer rushed over and opened his arms, and the rest Secret Service be damned is history. "What we know is that the guy's just got a big heart along with big pecs," Obama said afterward.

Experts question rankings of journals
Peer review may be a good way to assess research papers, but it can fall short in ranking the journals themselves. That's the reaction of some metrics experts to the first such journal rankings, launched this week by the Faculty of 1000 (F1000) in London. Critics question the method, which relies on scores awarded to individual papers by the F1000 'faculty' of 10,000 scientists and clinicians. Such scores, they claim, could be skewed by the interests and enthusiasms of individual reviewers.

The 28-page issue (PDF as usual, with HTML versions of each essay available, either from the C&I home page--which will, incidentally, remind you that contributions or sponsorship are both welcome and might help keep this nonsense going--or from the title links below) includes:
Making it Work: Websites and Social Networks pp. 1-17
Some notes on sampling public library websites (2,406 of them in 25 U.S. states) as part of the research for my 2012 book, a few idle thoughts on public library websites, and a Making it Work roundup and commentary on librarians and social networks.

Academic publishers make Murdoch look like a socialist
"What we see here is pure rentier capitalism: monopolising a public resource then charging exorbitant fees to use it. Another term for it is economic parasitism. To obtain the knowledge for which we have already paid, we must surrender our feu to the lairds of learning."

"No one doubts that commercial publishers are in the business of making money. But the way they make money is by doing something that academics value but that they would not do for themselves, left to their own devices. What I mean is captured in two words: 'innovation' and 'extension'. "
Cites & Insights 11: 8 (September 2011) is now available for downloading at http://citesandinsights.info/civ11i8.pdf
The 32-page issue (PDF as usual, but each essay is available as an HTML separate) includes:
Bibs & Blather (pp. 1-2)
Requests for help if your public library uses Facebook, Twitter or both, and a quick note about another tweak to C&I.
Writing about Reading: A Future of Books and Publishing (pp. 2-32)
The Diigo tag for the items discussed here was "eb-vs.-pb," but that's not quite right. The bulk of this lengthy Perspective considers items that, to one extent or another, either favor ebooks over print books, vice-versa, or--better yet--compare the two complementary textual forms of book (not that there aren't others, e.g., audiobooks).
As lagniappe, the first 3.3 pages offer a future of books and publishing (not the future, but a future)--one set of possibilities that I might personally find desirable, looking ten years out and "while I'm still alive"--say 35 years out.
19,000 papers leaked to protest 'war against knowledge'
A critic of academic publishers has uploaded 19,000 scientific papers to the internet to protest the prosecution of a prominent programmer and activist accused of hacking into a college computer system and downloading almost 5 million scholarly documents from an archive service.
The 18,592 documents made available Wednesday through Bittorrent were pulled from the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, a prestigious scientific journal that was founded in the 1600s, the protester said.
Cites & Insights 11:7 (August 2011) is now available.

If they stepped into the store, though, the soulful guitarist playing and the male-dominated crowd, dressed mostly in jeans, T-shirts and baseball caps or beanies atypical for a gallery opening, would have provided hints that something a bit different was going on. One presumably single female guest definitely endorsed the scene. "There are really good pickings. It's shocking," she whispered to a girlfriend. Herman and Lippman cooked up the idea for the event, which combined art and fashion, to benefit Save the Waves Coalition, a nonprofit organization that works to preserve the coastline. "There are more and more people that care about the things that bind us together," said Herman. "We want something more meaningful. We care about the environment."

Pie Crust
My Spectacular Pie Crust Failure
Oh Chris, this just depresses me. We had converse pie-ness. I made a disastrophe, and you made a beautiful peach pie with vanilla, cardamom, and a fully intact crust.

Behexen released their immensely promising if yet somewhat immature debut album, "Rituale Satanum", in 2000. The debut introduced a band with ear for terrifyingly ugly metal, capable of creating powerfully evil atmospheres, and with an interesting and original style of melody writing. The satanic darkness and melodic elements did not yet exist in a perfect symbiosis on the debut album, but in 2004 the unattractive larva vomited out another regurgitated abomination, "By the Blessing of Satan".
Everything seems to be right with "By the Blessing of Satan". The relentless blasting intensity of many Norwegian bands is incredibly well infused with riffing excellent enough to make early Gorgoroth jealous, and delivered with enough conviction to surpass most. The fuzzy, dark and very trebly production, where every instrument can be heard well and yet are distorted well beyond the usual standards of even semi-raw black metal, augments the absolutely black, terrible atmosphere greatly. Every instrument is played with absolute conviction and tremendous vigour, and if not always with unfaltering technical aptitude, then at least adequate ability. Each rhythm guitar part and its counterpoint, with the ferocious drumming and malicious screams, is either a testament to heinous terror and atrocity, a piece of sheer somber beauty, or a twisted entwinement of both, creating immensely addictive soundscapes of some murderous, exhilarating celebration of darkness.
The title track kicks off without asking any questions, having no introduction, with absolutely dark and evil riffing, prodigiously convincing screams, fast-speed blasting and overall relentless force. The music shifts between ugly, brutal rhythm guitar riffs and melodic, very dark and evil lead guitar with a certain sense of mystery embedded to the melody-writing that truly sets it apart from the average black metal lead guitar. Melody and darkness coexist wonderfully here. Whereas many more melodic black metal bands lack the intensity and brutality of their more norsecore-styled peers, and the latter kind lacks the memorability and quality of the former, in this Behexen song the best of both kinds is emblazoned with remarkable intensity and violence. "Fist of the Satanist" is a heavy, mid-paced black metal track with excellent powerful atmosphere and excellent black metal riffing, chiefly inherently simple rhythm guitar parts with the odd fascinating intricacy (though in songs like "Fist of the Satanist", such intricacies are more rarely heard than in others). "Celebration of the Christ's Fall" is equally true to its namesake as the violent fist-pumping second track of the album: its pacing is absolutely manic and the atmosphere strongly impassioned. "Watchers of My Black Temple" features slow tempo, stupendously heavy and dark atmosphere and melancholic, even beautiful riffing, creating an unbeliavable dichotomy of violent ugliness and dark beauty.
"By the Blessing of Satan" is extremely entertaining to listen to due to the great pacing of the album. Each song is fairly different and placed in a very good balance. The powerful "Fist of the Satanist" brings variety after the sheer blasting melodic magnificence of the title track, "Sieluni Saatanan Vihasta Roihuten" brings out the hideous ugly side all out after the linear and slightly plodding second track, after which comes the maddened frolic of "Celebration of the Christ's Fall". Before the incredible, atmospheric closing track "Under the Eye of the Lord", "Watchers of My Black Temple" works perfectly as a refreshing piece to bring variety and to elaborate on the doom elements hinted at in the slower passages of "Sieluni Saatanan Vihasta Roihuten". Not only is every track on the album an excellent piece of black metal, but the album as a whole is also a magnificently composed assemblage.
It's a great shame that Behexen was not able to recapture the glory of this masterpiece on any future release. "By the Blessing of Satan" clearly represents the zenith of the band's career so far, and likely for all time. Few black metal records in history can surpass the sheer hideous magnificence, power and intensity of this singularly heinous masterwork.
Behexen is not the most prolific band in the Finnish black metal scene. Having been in existence since 1996, they have only released three full-length albums, along with two demos and two split releases. By the Blessing of Satan, their sophomore effort, was released by Woodcut Records in March 2004, four long years after their debut record. Though Horns and Hoath Torog were also working on Sargeist during this period, there was still plenty of time to write music for Behexen. One would imagine that, with such an opportunity, they would have gone over each song until they were all perfect, but this was not the case.
The first thing that most people notice, upon listening to this, is that the production is horrible. Everything is too loud, and the overall effect is too abrasive. The bass and drums are both too high in the mix, which is especially evident during the double bass parts. It does not sound as if any single element has enough room to breathe; in a sense, it has all been compressed into a small space. At times, it is difficult to focus on the guitar melodies, of which there are many impressive ones that get buried beneath everything else, such as the latter half of "Fist of the Satanist". The layer of fuzz that was present on Rituale Satanum is still there, but also unable to have the same effect due to the wretched mix. The guitar riffs would, likely, have a cold feeling if not for the way everything comes together, which ends up creating more of a hellish feel. Many will ignore the album, right off the bat, based on the overwhelming noise level; however, it is really worthwhile to tolerate and adapt to the harsh sound in order to appreciate the music, as there is something going on beneath all of the chaos.
As for the songwriting, itself, one can tell that Behexen mixed several different influences and the result is not always positive. In particular, songs like the title track and "Celebration of Christ's Fall" bear several elements that simply do not belong. At times, they sound reminiscent of Dark Funeral, with the horrible deep vocals overdubbed, boring riffs and overactive blast beats. Thankfully, the really bad tracks are in the minority. The rest of the material demonstrates a mild level of influence from the likes of Bathory and Darkthrone, with the old school style of riffing. There are also traces of Burzum, heard in the use of the open-arpeggio riffs. The strongest inspiration seems to come from Mayhem, as evidenced by the cold and nocturnal tremolo melodies that are present in most of the songs. For the most part, the arrangements allow for a decent amount of variation, mixing mid-paced and fast sections and doing well to create a morbid atmosphere, at times. By the Blessing of Satan possesses many good riffs, but there are also a number of mediocre ones that should never have made it to the final stage. One surprising thing that the band did was to include an eerie lead guitar solo on "Black Metal Baptism", which displays just how powerful solos can be when used properly. It is a shame that most black metal bands choose to ignore this element.
By the Blessing of Satan does not reach the same level as its predecessor, Rituale Satanum, but it certainly has its moments. There are only two songs that are worth skipping past, while tracks like "Under the Eye of Lord" deserve repeated listens. At its best, this record creates a dark and sombre atmosphere that will haunt you for countless nights. Give this a try.
Written for http://ritesoftheblackmoon.tripod.com
For those of us whose parents pass off metal as incomprehensible noise with no musical value whatsoever, Behexen is probably what gave them their impression. If this is true, it's really a shame, firstly because there is metal out there more "unlistenable" than Behexen, and secondly, because many people overlook the multifaceted work that is By the Blessing of Satan, passing it off as incomprehensible noise.
In terms of comparisons, I can't really think of any band that contains a similar sound to Behexen, although I'm not very familiar with the Finnish Black Metal scene. The production on this album is actually better than most raw or brutal Black Metal releases that I've heard. The most distinguishing feature is that the drums and rhythm guitar are accented, which buries the lead guitar. This is a shame, since the lead guitar is quite interesting as far as black metal goes. This does enhance the atmosphere to a certain extent however, creating a very distant feeling, as if the album was recorded in a crypt. The same effect occurs with the vocals, which are very powerful when used this way. While using the typical black metal shriek, they are very well done, evoking a very painful and tortured feeling. The drums make extensive use of blastbeats, while providing some interesting fills and driving rhythms, and the rhythm guitar performs solid foundational riff work. The bass is actually audible, though like the lead guitar, requires active listening to hear for most of the album.
As far as highlight tracks go:
Celebration of Christ's Fall is where the lead guitar melodies are most evident, the first of which appearing at 0:20. Torog makes good use of his guttural howls as well. There's a very catchy chorus as well, where "Celebration of Christ's Fall!" is crystal clear. Best part in the song occurs at 3:11 where the lead guitar melody is most exposed, and a very good melody it is.
Black Metal Baptism begins with a driving rhythm guitar riff some arpeggiation on the D Minor chord in the lead guitar. The distant sounding lead guitar gives this a very creepy atmosphere. Before long the blasting of the drums enters, burying the melody once more. The lead guitar becomes evident once more at 3:35 with a killer riff that is used during the chorus. The break after the chorus has a very evil atmosphere created by the crushing rhythm guitar and drums, before a lead guitar solo at 5:11, which is very good, some would say virtuostic as far as black metal goes. The solo fades out giving way to a very cool bassline, echoed in the rhythm guitar. My personal favourite of the album.
Although these two are my personal favourites, there is no weak track on the album. Lack of originality is definitely a downside, in terms of both the music and the lyrics, as Brutal Black Metal is nothing new in this world, least of all with "hail Satan" lyrics. The accented drums and rhythm guitar get annoying after a while as well. Overall however, this is a very fine release for those who like their black metal raw and extreme. Requires active listening, and not for those of a faint constitution.
I have to admit, that first time I bought this album I skipped it and labeled it as mediocre, but one day I popped this sucker back to my stereo system, and I realised how great piece of black art this one is. I guess you could say that I didn't grow on it, but it grew on me... Like a cancer.
Although I think that the best stuff Behexen has released, is on the split album with Horna this album really doesn't fall that far. Songs are all brutal as hell, but still there are lots of melodic guitarlines buried under the wall of noise. And they sure are worth of looking for, because they are, along with Torog's vocals the true highlight of the album. Pretty much all the tracks here are strong celebrations for Satan and hate towards christ, so there really isn't "that one song" on the album. Some may say it's a bad thing that none of these tracks truly shines over everything else, but I say it's a good thing because in my opinion it is better to know a band because of a great album, not a great song.
However, my personal favorite track would probably be Celebration of Christ's Fall, which is pure bounding Black Metal assault the way it's supposed to be. Not mindless double-bass/blast-beat wankery (Panzer Division Norsecore-fans, I'm looking at your direction). The part where Torog screams "Celebration of Christ's Fall!" and a great guitar melody follows it, is just pure hate. But like I said, none of these songs truly beats the crap out of the other and it is at it's best, when it is listened from the first track to the very last, without continuously pushing the skip-button.
Lyrics might be a bit silly for someone, but then again this is Black Metal, so who gives a flying fuck? Of course I respect lyrics that have more deeper message behind them than just your typical "Hail Satan!"-stuff, but I really can't picture Torog screaming poetic words about forests, butterflys, rainbows and roses on a grave.
This album might get a bit monotonic if you are just an average listener, who is looking for some background music. There's a shitload of stuff buried under it all, so it might take some time to appreciate it.
But all in all, this is a great piece of traditional Black Metal. If you are looking for music that is highly original, then this is not your piece of cake... However if you just want a good Black Metal album to your collection, then I recommend this one highly. Plus it's lightyears ahead from their rather dull debut album.
By the Blessing of Satan is one of the best Black Metal releases in a long time. The sheer brutality, anger and hate that help manifest this slab of aural blasphemy creates an atmosphere unlike anything seen outside of the Norma Evangelium Diaboli label.
On the first listen, one may find little or no melody among the wall of noise that the band creates. But lost in the final mix is some serious tremolo melody, which tends to be overshadowed by thick, heavy riffing and Torog's vocals (ranging from piercing shrieks to twisted growls). The drumming is pounding and tightly executed. If a bass track does exist on this release, it is buried in the chaos.
From beginning to end, this release does not let up. This is brutal satanic art at its finest. "Under the Eye of Lord" finishes off this release with a devilish summoning, followed by a drift into a short ambient outro that perfectly summates 50 minutes of utter madness.
Other than the brutal nature of this release, the changing structure of the [lengthy] songs, and the simple catchy choruses that are strewn in hither and thither, both help to maintain an air of originality to the release. Behexen's typical Black Metal lyrics can be found on 90% of any other satanic Black Metal releases, so that is definitely not the main focus of any review, or the selling point of this album. It is the utter madness that is conjured that keeps me coming back to this modern masterpiece.
Standout tracks:
Fist of the Satanist – great chorus
Celebration of Christ's Fall – your ideal Black Metal track
Black Metal Baptism – stellar
Behexen's second cd contains very brutal black metal. Cover art is very ugly and it should scare most of the unaware listeners. If the weakest people haven't been scared off by cover, the music does it. Seven tracks of this record are very raw, gloomy and unholy.
The sounds of the album are brutal. There are some (hidden) melodies and catchy guitar riffs, but they are mostly hammered under harsh guitars and hollow drums. Singer (or screamer) and lyricist Torog's voice is very distant, but still sounds unholy and sick. Their skills are good but they don't make any useless over-technical solos. Brilliant!
There are seven songs, one of them doesn't have it's lyrics printed, on the album and most of them are over 7 minutes long. This is also the weakness of the album. Album's overall length is about 47 minutes and there are seven (sometimes) overlenghted songs! Overlenghted or not, Behexen is responsible of dark and primitive black metal album. It doesn't create anything new to it's genre, but should it? Recommended for the friends of brutal black metal. Everyone else, don't touch!

In its budget submitted to Congress on February 13, the Obama administration zeroed out funding for NASA's future Mars-exploration missions. The Mars Science Lab Curiosity, currently en route to the Red Planet and the nearly completed small MAVEN orbiter, scheduled for launch in 2013, will be sent, but that's it. No funding has been provided for the Mars probes planned as joint missions in 2016 and 2018 with the European Space Agency, and nothing after that is funded either. This poses a grave crisis for the American space program.
NASA's Mars-exploration effort has been brilliantly successful because, since 1994, it has been approached as a campaign, with probes launched every two years, alternating between orbiters and landers. As a result, combined operations have been possible, with orbiters providing communication links and reconnaissance guidance for surface rovers, which in turn can conduct investigations on the ground to verify and calibrate orbital observations. Thus, the great treks of the rovers Spirit and Opportunity, launched in 2003, were supported from above by Mars Global Surveyor (MGS, launched in1996), Mars Odyssey (launched in 2001), and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO, launched in 2005). But after serving ten years in orbit, MGS is now no longer operating, and if we wait until the 2020s to resume Mars exploration, the rest of the orbiters will be gone as well. Moreover, so will be the experienced teams that created them. Effectively, the whole program will be completely wrecked, and we will have to start again from scratch.
America's human-spaceflight program is currently completely adrift. Unless it is reorganized as a mission-driven directorate committed to efficiently achieving important objectives within a meaningful timeframe — like the Mars program has been — it may well prove to be indefensible in the face of the oncoming fiscal tsunami. But the Mars program is defensible. It has real and rational objectives, reasonable costs, and a terrific track record of success. It can and must be saved.
There is no justification for the proposed cuts. The U.S. federal government may be going broke, but it's not because of NASA. Since 2008, federal spending has increased 40 percent, but NASA spending has remained the same. Trillions of dollars in out-of-control entitlement spending cannot be remedied by cuts in NASA, or even in the entire discretionary budget, defense included. Rather, the financial bleeding needs to be staunched where the hole is, and nowhere else.
The Mars program is not being terminated to make funds available for future missions to other planets. In fact, there is no money in the Obama plan to fund any of them, either.
In any case, cost is not the issue. With the Europeans putting up their share, a matching $1 billion contribution from NASA spread over the next six years would be sufficient to fund both the 2016 and 2018 missions at a level of a billion dollars each. This would require less than 1 percent of NASA's current budget. There is no excuse for not doing this.
Indeed, what is truly remarkable about the Obama administration's NASA management is that it has managed to wreck both the human-spaceflight program and the robotic planetary-exploration effort without saving any money. In 2008, NASA spending was $17.4 billion; this year's budget is $17.7 billion. Yet in 2008, NASA was running an active space-shuttle program, preparing for the critical mission to save the Hubble Space Telescope, developing systems for returning astronauts to the moon by 2019, building the Curiosity and MAVEN Mars probes, and planning an orbiter for Jupiter's moon Europa. Today the shuttles are gone, the moon program is gone, and this decade's Mars and Jupiter probes are gone — all without saving a nickel. In terms of damage done per dollar cut, it may be a world record.

"Online MBA program offered by this school is accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB)."
Anyone here can tell me what is AACSB? I've seen many schools offering online MBA programs claim that they are accredited by AACSB. So this accreditation seems to be a honor, right?
I search online and find AACSB is neither a regional nor national accrediting agency. Then why people value the accreditation from it?
@Patricia C. Brill
Accreditation from AACSB is generally considered the highest accreditation for business and accounting schools, which makes sure that the school meets the high standards the organization sets. Online MBA programs from an AACSB-accredited business school can help you get a higher paid job.
"Blackboard system is used by online Temple University as the course management system."
I found that many colleges and universities use Blackboard for their online programs. Just be curious: what is Blackboard exactly?
I know that earning an online MBA cannot be cheap. Some online business schools even charge much more than traditional brick and mortar programs. So I'm wondering how much it will cost to earn an online MBA degree at Temple University. How many credits are required toward graduation?
It's true that it's quite expensive to earn an MBA degree. There're still some affordable online MBA programs. I think the tuition rates for online MBA degree at Temple University are quite high. This program requires a total 48 credits. You need to pay $1,296 for each credit. So your total cost can be $58,320.
The good news is that Temple University offers many forms of financial aid, including scholarships, to help reduce students' financial burden.
"Blackboard" is a tool that allows instructors to add resources and materials for students to access online. Audio, PowerPoint, video and other applications are created outside of Blackboard and added into Blackboard courses to enhance teaching and learning efforts.
Too many selections of online MBA programs make it difficult for me to the best one. After reading your words, it's clear that the online MBA degree program at Temple University is not a bad option. I do not have to search any more. Its affordable tuition, most respected teaching faculty and advanced curriculum…they are exactly what I'm looking for.

Bad Brains Honor Adam Yauch on First LP in Five Years
D.C. reggae-hardcore heroes go 'Into the Future' on November 20
The last time Bad Brains put out an album, the Beastie Boys' Adam "MCA" Yauch produced it. Yauch, who died earlier this year after a struggle with cancer, has even been quoted as calling the reggae-inflected Washington, D.C., hardcore band's self-titled 1982 debut "the best punk/hardcore album of all time." Now Blabbermouth reports Bad Brains will release their first studio album since 2007's Yauch-produced Build a Nation, to be titled Into the Future, on November 20 via Megaforce.
Into the Future is set to feature Bad Brains' prime lineup of frontman H.R., guitarist Dr. Know, bassist Darryl Jenifer, and drummer Earl Hudson. Jenifer has said the self-produced LP "shines with a true sense of freedom and musical experimentation, with blends of soulful backgrounds meshed with blistering hardcore and metal riffs, with classic dub." As a tribute to Yauch, the album will also contain a remix of rasta-fueled Build a Nation finale "Peace Be Unto Thee."
Listen to the combustive title track over at Rolling Stone. "Intergalactic," H.R. scoffs over jagged stop-start backing. He told the magazine, "My vocalizing strengthens the impact of the group's overall deliverance of the music, and the expression of the church of music." Bad Brains make the future sound terrifying, as it probably should.

Follow-Up Postings:
did you try dipping it in Rootone or another rooting hormone? Those calluses are kind of ugly aren't they?! |
Hi Jim: Everything I have ever read and the times I have tried to grow them, hollow cuttings will not produce roots and to throw them away. That will happen sometimes with the first cuttings off a tuber or as I do sometimes in the fall take cuttings from some garden plants to winter over and if you get a stem too long it will be hollow. So I would just go with the follow on cuttings and toss the hollow ones. Cuttings placed into soil without roots have a very poor chance of living long enough to make roots. When I first started doing cuttings I would have a 50-60% failure rate which was discouraging. I started putting them into jars of wet sand for 36-48 hours and then in soil and that helped but still not a high enough success rate. Finally, I learned about the Oasis Wedge System (not Oasis Cubes)which has about a 90-99% success rate and I use it every year. I don't even use a rooting hormone as they root so well in the wedges. Cowlitz Dahlias has wedges for sale or you can google and find other suppliers. |

I support 900 machines and about 2 dozen servers on a community campus. If the college has done things right. The only access any student will have from their personal laptops is internet access.
Generally the classroom/lab computers will have no interaction what so ever with a student computer. We go out of our way to prevent the student computers from infecting or even being able to connect to the academic\business networks. The students do have a wireless network which depending on the campus implementation of their wifi shouldn't have problems with linux.
Hmm... (442 comments)

Re:How does this even work? (301 comments)
A very reasonable explanation but there is still a huge glaring problem I see.
The proceeds from the sale of the buildings will be spent on that fiscal year to close any gaps in the budget. There wont be any left over money so where are they getting the rent money from? Where are they going to get the money to buy them back in a few years? The money is gone and can only be made back thru taxes they collect. Which obviously are not enough.
As you say its enough to help get some cash on hand to pay the bills but for only that year. If they are dumping the proceeds from the sale into the current budget then the money is gone. You kind of contradict yourself saying that they will be using the money to pay rent and have something to start with to buy the buildings back but they are doing this to pay off their current debt. The fact is though they wont have a dime of that money left over in a year if they do pay their debts with this money. Kind of a catch 22 I would say.
Thats why it only partially makes sense to me. Its nothing but a loss.
How does this even work? (301 comments)
Im confused here... If they sell the buildings then lease them from the new owners do they not have to pay rent? Then in a few years when the economy is better wont they have to buy it back for more then they sold it for? Real estate generally increases in value not decreases. It would make the whole deal a loss for the state then wouldnt it? I see no way that this would help out with their yearly budget except for the year they sell it. After that its only going to be a net loss.
It seems to me this sounds like a bs accounting scheme. Kinda similiar how a few states say its cheaper to keep a murderer in prison for life then it is to execute him within a few years. Its looks great in the short term but in the long run it costs much more.
It just sounds really stupid to me. I can understand trying to get some money to make ends meet but this whole deal makes me scratch my head.
Need for a special academic copyright? (349 comments)
Maybe they should make a special copyright for academic works. Allow the schools to create a copyright but its a limited copyright of sorts. People could freely use it, reference it or copy it for their personal use but if they ever want to sell it they then have to talk to the institution that holds the copyright for it and get permission or setup a deal.
Personally though im of the mind that if something was created in the academic world it should be fair game for everyone not looking to make money because our tax money partially paid for it. Anything innovated for profit from said copyright should at least acknowledge and pay something to the original inventor. You take public funds and you'd better be willing to give that item, idea or whatever to those that funded it. The public. They couldn't of made it otherwise.
Re:What is it with meetings? (274 comments)
Many managers dont really do a dam thing other then make a schedule and watch the budget. Thats why they are so frequently in meetings so it looks as if they are being productive.
As an example my boss has meetings nearly every day, some all day meetings. She rarely comes back and talks about what was mentioned in the meetings but none of it is ever useful or changes things for the better. This has gone on for almost 8 years now.
Ive been to a few of those meetings as well and more then half of the meeting is the women talking about their family, some other pointless crap or kissing the ass of the higher up boss. The other half is them asking what did we do last meeting and asking questions that should be answered but never do because "Ill have to check on that" is the typical response. The meetings are nothing more then a waste of time.
I pretty much govern myself except when my boss feels the need to make herself look good and rushes me through a project just so she can brag about how quickly something was done...
Maybe its because I work in higher education or because 75% of the management here are women who would rather play social games with each other.
Its scary... (834 comments)

Personally I think that ultra fast trading is bad for the economy. It causes artificial imbalences in how supply and demand, business values should work. It then gives way for people to abuse the system given enough money and speed. There should be limits on how much can be traded in any given time. If there were limits it would allow who ever it is that should be regulating the markets to put some breaks on things when they see a problem, at least until things stabilize without closing down the entire exchange or destroying peoples retirement funds in the blink of an eye.

Re:SO if I (207 comments)
A better apology would be say 100 people bought the same book then each person copies a few pages and gives it to other people who are then able to form the full book after collecting the pieces from the other 100 people. I think what they are trying to prove is that a individual that uses bit torrent is only giving another person a part of the info they need to complete a file. For them to be able to prosecute they would have to prosecute everyone who is sharing the copies. All or none basically. I believe fair use laws are being used to somewhat protect bit torrent users in this case. It may work for a while but i have no doubt that the politicians will start to make new laws specifying that even a part of a file is equal to the whole file.
Telegraphing his punches (1211 comments)
I am curious as to what people think about McCain's opinion against Obama telegraphing his punches so to speak? This came up in one of the debates. None of the media really touched on it, that I read, but I think it shows a serious character flaw in the mind of McCain maybe even our military thinking. Here is the quote: "But the point is that I know how to handle these crises. And Sen. Obama, by saying that he would attack Pakistan, look at the context of his words. I'll get Osama bin Laden, my friends. I'll get him. I know how to get him. I'll get him no matter what and I know how to do it. But I'm not going to telegraph my punches, which is what Sen. Obama did. " McCain sounds as if his whole tactic is to sneak up behind someone, slap them in the ear and kick them while they are down. Isn't that wrong of him to imply that? Isn't that simply being sneaky or shady about what his true intentions are? I don't understand that kind of mentality. I think it's dishonorable. Our great nation should be well above that that kind of tactic. We should be able to go to a country diplomatically and say hey im going to bomb your borders to get some bad guys. You can go along with us and help or stay out of the way. If you fight us not only the bad guys will be in trouble, so will you. Sure we don't need to "telegraph" them specifics, troop numbers equipment etc, but giving them a fair warning, I believe, is more then warranted. The reason I say this is let them put up their defenses, let them prepare for it and then when we come in and blow a giant hole through their lines and get our target it will not only demean them it will show who does have the most power. That kind of tactic hurts their defenses and their egos, not the ooh "dam he got me while I wasn't looking but ill get him back mentality" that we seem to be creating currently.

Used to Internet explorer would hardly work. So I switched tin Firefox. Updated it, and now its just as bad as Internet Explorer. Most the time it will not even open.
Most the time it won't even open when I click on it. Now i am useing Google and I hate it. Its too lean, and you can't do hardly anyting.
Just need to get off the internet looks like.

Did you ever think you might have had a faulty installation? Why don't you clear everything Firefox from your machine and start anew. Isn't that a more realistic approach than "getting off the internet"? Quitting is easy, anyone can do that.
Probably, but ask someone for help first.

Question about South Mississippi Gardening: as you are aware, the winter lingered a little longer in our area. I am just now getting to work on our garden. Most dates for our area show that many spring planted veggies should be planted by April. Should I plant this week and hope/pray for the best and see what happens? I know many veggies are borderline: cucumbers, eggplant, peppers. I can plant okra, sweet potatoes now. Should I wait for July and August dates for everything else? We do have drip irrigation as well. Would appreciate your thoughts. Thank you! |

Four Horsemen
Are you pro? Me neither, but I love it!
Theres a reason more pros and shop kids choose the Cartel. Simply put, its got everything you could ask for!
Light-weight, crazy durable strength, and unbelievable comfort in a shred-everything package.
The time-tested feel and power of the anatomically accurate baseplate, that has a lifetime warranty, and hi-back is unmatched in the industry. FullBED cushioning smoothes out shocking landings, while the NEW Gettagrip Capstrap results in instantaneous edge-control and all-day comfort that never slips!
The short-glass nylon composite tray makes it a medium flexing tray... after adding that hi-back you can get all day long performance and comfort!
You even help support conservation of material as re-ground materials are used in both the baseplate and hi-back to reduce waste.
The binding performs with hella-quick response!
One of my favorite features on the cartel is the full-bed cushioning system as it just takes out some of the ebs and jives of riding all day long... helps absorb some additional impact, ya know?
