Just My Imagination
Utopias are not always pleasant places to inhabit. An English fantasy of 1848, Charles Rowcroft's The Triumph of Woman: A Christmas Story, portrays a utopian regime full of wholesome puddings and a glorious one person per pew in church. In Sarah Scott's A Description of Millennium Hall (1778), the ideal world is an English country mansion in which female midgets play the harpsichord and tend the shrubberies. Douglas Jerrold's The Chronicles of Clovernook (1846), an insufferably smug tale in which the narrator becomes particularly excited at the prospect of little boys tearing their trousers, enthuses over an imaginary society that still has taxes, prisons and poverty.
Most utopias, as Russell Jacoby recognizes in his absorbing new study, Picture Imperfect, are odorless, antiseptic places, intolerably streamlined and sensible, in which the natives chat for hours about the splendid efficiency of their sanitary arrangements. Alternative social universes tend to be thinly disguised versions of our own--rather as aliens, give or take a limb or two, are seldom all that different from Donald Rumsfeld or Tony Blair. The real aliens are those who are squatting in our laps right now, just as the true utopia must necessarily beggar our speech. To portray the future in the language of the present is inevitably to betray it. "The worst is not," remarks a character in King Lear, "so long as we can say, 'This is the worst'"; and what goes for the worst also goes for the best. Anything we can speak of must by definition fall short of the otherness we desire. So perhaps it is better to imagine the future only negatively, as Kant thought that we could catch a glimpse of infinity only by pressing against the limits of the mind and watching them warp and buckle. For his part, Jacoby wants a utopian thought that "pines for the future but does not map it out."
For Theodor Adorno, this negative utopia is known as art. For others, the only true image of the future is the failure of the present. Or, for that matter, the failure of the past. As Walter Benjamin reminded us, it is memories of enslaved ancestors, not dreams of liberated grandchildren, that drive men and women to revolt. To avoid some cheap leftist triumphalism, we must move backward into the future with our eyes fixed mournfully on that great heap of wreckage that is the past. Otherwise we are merely callow modernizers or cavalier avant-gardists, who in seeking to eradicate the past will discover that it returns with a vengeance to plague us.
Yet there are problems with this option, too, which Jacoby does not fully take on board. For one thing, it leaves the left open to a familiar pincers movement on the part of its adversaries. If you can spell out what a radical future would look like, you are the prisoner of a soulless blueprint; if you refuse to do so, you are an idle visionary. Marx sought to elude this double bind by spelling out what would be necessary for constructing a socialist future but not what it would look like once it was in place. You cannot deduce what a thing might look like simply by examining its conditions of possibility.
The Old Testament prophet is not a soothsayer who predicts the future; we can leave soothsaying to those who are hired to peer into the entrails of the political system and assure its rulers that their profits are safe for another fifty years. The prophet's task is not to second-guess the future but to point out that unless we mend our ways, the future will be either remarkably unpleasant or nonexistent. Utopia is not about some impossible perfection--that tedious right-wing charge--but quite the opposite: a social order that tolerates the inevitably partial, finite, defective nature of human affairs. If we perish, it will not be of failure or finitude but of breathless, bright-eyed idealists for whom the sky's the limit. Most of these are known as Americans.
As a Jew, Marx was attentive in his own secularized way to the Mosaic ban on idolatrous images, a ban about which Picture Imperfect is particularly illuminating. In fact, the future author of The Communist Manifesto began his political career in contention with what one might call "subjunctive" utopian thinkers--the "wouldn't it be nice if" brigade who feel free to dream up ideal schemes because their fantasies never need to face the pressure of reality. We cannot legislate for the future, not least because it is not ours, but the people's, to create. Dreams of the future, as the Frankfurt School reminded us, too often confiscate the very political energies that are necessary for their realization.
Yet there is still something to be said for trying to speak the unspeakable. For the fact is that any authentic future must be to some extent in line with the present as well as discontinuous with it. If it is not--if the future is not somehow inherent in the material forces of the present--then it is just wishful thinking, a vacuous, purely gestural kind of politics. An authentic future must be feasible as well as desirable. Otherwise we will persuade men and women to desire uselessly, and so, like the neurotic, to fall ill of longing. In fact, we could claim that utopia is inherent in the present in at least this sense: that without some dim notion of justice, freedom and equality, we would have no standard by which to judge the present, and so would be incapable of identifying its defects. The future is already potentially present in the shape of the blind spots and contradictions of the present--in its silences and exclusions, its conflicts and fragmentations.

I absolutely love this product! I originally got it just for the primer but now find I am using the sealer more. The primer is good for the price you're paying: it keeps my eyeshadow in place, I don't get much in terms of a crease or much oily issues until I get towards the end of the day. Only issue is the color is not a good match for my own as I have more of a pale ivory color and in terms of application it takes a while to blend in.
The sealer: such a fun and neat idea to take eye shadows and turn them into liners! I had not thought I'd use it but have ended up playing around with different colors and finding it to be quite a good product!

I bought this primarily for the primer side, and I am really dissatisfied with it. I like the way it looks when you put it on, it gives you a a nice even look that I really like, even for using as a nude but finished eye look. It covers well and evens out discoloration. But it creases on me very quickly. I have tried different shadows over it, tried different powders to set it. Doesn't work. The liner side is ok, but I don't really line my eyes too often. I would not buy this again.

The eye primer is a pretty decent one, but of course there are much better ones that I would recommend you going with, especially if you have oily eyelids like I do.. It of course is more like using concealer to keep your eye makeup in place, however, when it comes to using it during warm/hot weather conditions it doesn't provide consistent results. This may be largely due to it having mineral oil listed high on its ingredient listing. And, the liner part, i have not even tried yet, and am not sure if I exactly ever will.
For me this is not a must have, so I don't plan on re-purchading it again.

While I like the liner sealer, I'm really not impressed with the eye primer. It creased on me. I've heard some say that if it creases to try using less, but the problem with doing that is that it isn't enough to give you that 'stick' I guess I'll call it for lack of a better word, where it makes your shadow really go on more vibrant & stay put well, & either way whether I use a little or alot it would still crease. But being a girl on a budget, I try to find ways to make things work even if they are only a few dollars, so what I actually have ended up using it for is sort of as a lip primer. Like if I'm going for that very pale, opaque nude look what I've done is I'll apply the primer to my lips, then apply a nude gloss over it.
The liner sealer works well, I've never tried it as far as trying to extend the wear of my eyeliner, but more as a mixing medium, Like I'll mix it with pigments & eyeshadows to make eyeliners, & for that it works well. Alot better than mixing it with water or glycerin/water combos. But, being that Elf sells a liner sealer/mixing medium by itself, I don't see myself buying this product again.

The primer side is very thick but not horribly. I don't use eyeshadow so I can't provide any experience with that. I do like, however, how well the primer evens out my lid color. I am fair skinned and some blue veins are visible but these covers them very well!.
The sealer side took some time learning. I tried mixing it with eyeshadow but I got tired of having to re-dip the brush into the eyeshadow every few millimeters on my lids. It may be my laziness so please form your own opinion. :) I found it was great to use with ELF's cream eyeliner. I know it sounds weird using this liquid with a cream... but I found the cream smeared on my outer eye creases. When I applied it with this "sealer", it thinned the liner out enough that it stayed on without smearing!!!!

The primer end is ok. It gives a decent base for eyeshadow. The sealer end, at first, I didn't think I would use. Then I bought some cheap eyeshadow because I loved the colors but they would wear off easy. If you apply the sealer to your eye lid , then put on the cheap (powder) eye shadow, it stays all day. So overall this was worth the $3 I paid for it.

The primer end- looks a lot like a concealer stick, and it's best to either use your finger or a doe foot applicator to apply it to the eyelid. It seemed a bit thick, so warming it up a little helps to get an even coat, and a little goes a long way. I was worried it wouldn't give a good color payoff, but I compared it alongside my UD primer and it was as good, if not a little better with some colors. Staying power was good, lasted all day with no color loss. I even tried a chunky glitter UD shadow with it, and had little to no fallout.
The sealer end- as many have already said, this isn't to apply over your liner to seal it! It's to use with an eyeshadow to create a liner. With some colors, I found I had to apply a few coats to get the desired shade, and with others I found one coat was enough. Once on, it doesn't budge. I love that I can have any color eyeliner now, without having to buy a bunch of eyeliners! The only downside is the liner applicator, which is rather stiff, and looks like over time it will lose its shape. It was very easy to clean off though. Maybe an actual brush would do better.
Overall, for $3.00, it's a good buy for people on a budget, someone just starting out with makeup, or even to use between having to wait and save up for a higher end primer, like UD.

I only use the primer because the liner sealer does not work for me. The primer is good enough, but still doesn't compare to eyelid primers like Urban Decay. I wish they only made the primer stick because I feel like the other half is such a waste. Also, I use eye makeup almost every day and I have been using this every day for the past few months haven't even hit the bottom yet! A little goes a long way.

ASHLAND, Ore. — The Jackson County Sheriff's Office is reporting a LEVEL THREE EVACUATION for some residents on Copco Road near Ashland.
Residents who live near surrounding roads also say they have been issued level one evacuations as well.
The Oregon Gulch Fire is burning at least 5,300 acres and growing rapidly in the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument. Fire officials suspect the fire was started by lightning.
Level 3 evacuation is in effect for the 6,000 block of Copco Rd headed South to Box D Ranch.
Level 3 Evacuation means residents need to leave. If you choose to ignore this evacuation, emergency responders may not be able to get to you.
Fall Creek Ranch, just south of the fire area, has been designated a safe zone for evacuees.

Nov 12, 2010 in Food Network Community Toolbox on Food Network
"I was interested in getting my kids to eat quinoa so I made a few changes. I cooked the quinoa in chicken broth. I exchanged the green pepper for an orange one. Additionally, based on the other reviewer's comments I used only one teaspoon of adobo (the one with the blue top which already has salt). It didn't need any additional salt. Delicio..."

Rate Dr. Stephen J. Pincus
Dr. Stephen J. Pincus's Ratings
I had one of the most challenging noses to reconstruct. After looking long and hard, it was a Godsend to find Dr. Pincus. It has been a very long and difficult process for me to have the nose I always dreamt of, and this doctor made it possible! Miracles do happen. I feel fortunate, beyond words, to have have found Dr. Pincus. He has acquired the most cutting edge techniques that he applies ever so patiently. His assistant, Wendi, is patient and on top of things, working very closely with the Doctor to provide the utmost of specialized care. I have been so touched by Dr. Pincus's outstanding professionalism and steadfast dedication to my cause, that I have experienced emotional tears of joy and relief.7 He's the "real deal" when it comes to plastic surgery and upholding the highest standards of what I would expect of MD. I think the world of him and can't thank him enough!

I had a procedure done on my face 11 years ago with Dr. Stephen Pincus and I was very happy with the results of that procedure. I have had 2 additional procedures done recently with Dr. Pincus. I am again very pleased with the outcome. Dr. Pincus sat with me and listened to just what I was seeking to achieve. He then offered his ideas and advice for the best result. This Dr. is highly skilled and has a very gentle way about him. Dr. Pincus has a wealth of experience and knowledge. I highly recommend Dr. Stephen Pincus to anyone who is seeking facial cosmetic surgery. I am very lucky to have found this man. He has made me very happy once again.

5/1/13 Just had a nose revision surgery & facelift with Dr. Pincus & couldn't be happier! I look in my late twenties & natural. I had done surgery with him 20 years ago & it's great to see the time, care, & talent he has 20 years later! Dr. Pincus even called me the night of surgery to check on me & his staff was superb with all follow-up. Miss D, Beverly Hills

There is nobody I trust more than Dr. Pincus. 10 years ago, he corrected a previous rhinoplasty that had been performed by another plastic surgeon. He gave me a fantastic nose and corrected my breathing 100%. Later, Dr. Pincus took extensive time with my husband. He promised that the changes to his nose would only be subtle, as desired. Perfect! Our daughter had a huge nose. It bled constantly due to the deviation of the septum and she couldn't breathe. For three years, I took her to Dr. Pincus, who would not perform surgery until last December, when he determined that she had finished growing. The surgery changed her life. She can breathe, her nose no longer bleeds, and her repaired nose is adorable! What I most admire about Dr. Pincus is his ability to design a nose that is just right for a face. I see pictures of surgeries that have been performed by other plastic surgeons on CELEBRITIES and I wonder what they were thinking! They should have gone to Dr. Pincus...

Dr. Stephen Pincus belongs to that thin, top layer of most gifted, passionate and caring individuals in this field. He combines exceptional talent with the highest professional integrity and excellent care. He performed several facial procedures on me that restored a natural, youthful appearance that I didn't know was achievable. I trust him blindly and recommend him without reservations.

I had a nose job with Dr. Pincus well over 7 years ago. I was thinking about getting some more work done and just looked at his reviews! so pleased to see that he is still amazing as he was 7 years ago. 3vof my friends have seen him since then. He is such a gifted Dr. as well as a nice an caring man!

Dr. Stephen Pincus has performed numerous cosmetic procedures on my face & neck, as well as excised several skin cancers with reconstruction & even repaired a laceration. In all instances, the results were perfect. He accepts nothing less than perfection in his work. Whatever results he tells you what you will get, is exactly what you will get. He is the most professional, caring and skilled surgeon I have ever met. Because he does not mass market himself like so many, he is somewhat under the radar. I hear all of his patients come from either doctor referrals or referrals from other patients.

Dr. Pincus dld a full facelift on me 1 year ago and I'm extremely pleased with the results - he does amazing work! He didn't change my natural looks; I now look exactly like I did 15 years ago - looks completely natural and no one would guess I've had surgery. He did a rhinoplasty on my daughter's nose; kept her "ethnic nose" just made is smaller and more feminine. It totally suits her face and she is thrilled with it. I just recently had rhinoplasty done by him. I always hated my nose and finally decided to fix it. He totally listened to my wishes (wanted to keep the bump and general shape, just make them smaller). The results are absolutely beautiful and exactly what I wanted. He is a true artist, has a great bedside manner, is very kind and LISTENS to his patients. I highly recommend him; he's a perfectionist who is serious about doing excellent work and making his patients happy - not about being a "Beverly Hills doctor/ TV star".

Dr. Pincus gets and A in every category. He did my nose job. He did an excellent job and no one has ever asked me where I got my job done. He removed a large bump off my nose and made me beautiful. I got married about one year later! My niece had her nose done by him ten years later. Same result.

Does Tmobile Note 2 have to be unlocked to change APN for Straight Talk?
Hi guys. I am a big technology dunce, so I am sure that this is a stupid question. I recently switched to Straight Talk and bought the Tmobile SIM for my Mytouch 4G slide, but the phone is unlocked because I needed to use it overseas. I now want to buy a Note II on ebay. If I buy a Tmobile Note II on ebay, will I be able to use the SIM that I have (I know I need to have it cut down, but I think they will do that at the Tmobile store) and still be able to add the new Straight Talk APN settings, or does the phone have to be completely unlocked to add a new APN?
Thanks. -
Re: Does Tmobile Note 2 have to be unlocked to change APN for Straight Talk?
Yes it will need to be unlocked to use any carrier other than T-mobile. I wanted my phone unlocked so I told T-mobile I was going overseas and needed it unlocked so I could use it there and they sent me an email with the code and instructions on unlocking the phone for free. Note: It is as of Jan 27, 2013 illegal to unlock a phone without the carriers permission in the USA.

My software uses phones camera. I found out that camera gives pictures two pixels too much right. Last two pixels from right side are in beginning of left side. There is vertical two pixel wide line in left side of picture. Problem is with both View finder image and captured image. If I use camera normal way there is no problem.
I'd like to know if this is feature of model or is there just something wrong with the phone I am using? Should I correct images in my code or should I leave them as they are, because problem is in the phone I am using?

Ween – Transitions lyrics
Got aesthetic universal saturation in the grip of the morning sun.
The creosote that erodes all the odors that lie dormant when the day is done.
Hop the dingle on the ferry takes you back to the dimension that's just begun.
Riding the crest of the communion to a union, Harry Truman is the holy son.
And he says...

Text of report in English by Qatari government-funded aljazeera.net
website on 3 November
["Deadly triple bombing strikes Iraq oil hub" - Al-Jazeera net headline]
(Al Jazeera net) - At least eight people were killed and dozens wounded
in three explosions in Iraq's southern city of Basra, officials said.
The explosions occurred outside three cafes on Wednesday [3 November] on
a street in central Basra where people gather in the evening to smoke
traditional water pipes and play dominoes and backgammon.
Ali al-Maliki, head of the Basra provincial council's security
committee, said eight people were killed and 22 others wounded.
Brigadier Faisal al-Abadi, head of Basra police, put the toll at two
killed and 30 wounded.
"I was near my son's cafe when I heard an explosion and quickly came to
the area. I saw people lying on the ground, blood spots on the floor.
People were shocked and screaming. My son is amongst the wounded," said
Abu Abdullah, whose son owns one of the cafes targeted in the attack.
A witness at the scene said there was little structural damage as a
result of the blasts. "There are many critical cases amongst the
wounded. We expect the death toll will rise," a hospital source in Basra
Bombings and attacks remain a daily occurrence in Iraq nearly nine years
after the US-led invasion that ousted Saddam Husayn and the number of
people killed in October was the highest this year.
United States President Barack Obama said on October 21 that all US
forces would withdraw from Iraq by the year-end in accordance with a
2008 security pact. Military leaders have expressed concerns that
fighters might ramp up attacks as the 39,000 US troops left in Iraq pack
up to leave.

10.08.06 - Marlon Bernardino: OFFENSE could be Brian Viloria's best defense when he takes on Mexican challenger Omar Nino Romero in their World Boxing Council (WBC) light flyweight title fight Thursday night (Friday morning in Manila) at the Orleans Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Viloria's trainer Freddie Roach wants the champion to attack early and often.. "I don't want Brian pulling back from this guy," Roach said. "I like Brian best when he's aggressive and let's the big shots go, not when he's laying back and countering. If he backs up and lets this guy come forward, it will be to the other guy's advantage." Romero's record looks impressive with 23 wins, including 10 by knockout, two defeats and one draw. His biggest catch is fellow Mexican and current WBC flyweight ruler Jorge Arce. They're both undefeated in four fights when Romero stopped Arce in just one round. Roach had seen seen some of Romero's fights on tape and described the native of Guadalajara, Mexico as a tough, come-forward fighter, slow but dangerous with a looping right hand. But he's quick to point out that both of Romero's defeats came inside the distance."He's no bullet-proof," Roach said. "Brian's hand speed and power will be very critical in this fight." Viloria, a proud son of Filipino parents, knows exactly what to do. His 19-0 card includes 12 knockout wins. But his manager Gary Gittelsohn doesn't sound too confident. "There is no easy fight in this division," Viloria's manager Gary Gittelsohn said. "This guy (Romero) will be in the fight." It will be Viloria's second defense of the title he won over Erik Ortiz last year. He decisioned Jose Antonio Aguirre last February on his first title defense. The Viloria-Romero title bout will be shown on wide screen at the Robinson's Galleria Fountain Area and at Tastebuds in Robinson's Place Manila starting 10 a.m.Solar Sports, home of Filipino boxing champions, will telecast the fights also starting 10 a.m. with replays at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. the following day.

Mockery: Behavior or speech that makes fun of someone or something in a hurtful way. Mockery of entire groups has effectively been criminalized in Western societies. One would think thrice before publicly mocking Jews, African Americans, homosexuals or many other groups. Yet when it comes to Muslims, all bets, and societal protections are off.

By Brian Stelter (CNN) It is a message of defiance, but also forgiveness—and many Muslims responded with similarly mixed emotions. It is a magazine cover depicting the Prophet Mohammed with a tear falling from his cheek, holding a sign that says, "Je suis Charlie," the slogan that became a worldwide meme. Above Mohammed are the words "All Is Forgiven." On Wednesday, two Muslim extremists attacked the offices of Charlie Hebdo, a French magazine with a history of mocking Mohammed. Twelve were killed, including several top editors, by two men with terrorist connections who said they were avenging… Read MorePosted on 2015-01-11
Muslims are messengers of mercy to humanity. This message is being buried under the mountains of distortion and defamation being directed towards our community and the gasoline that some ignorant, misguided or devious Muslims are wittingly or unwittingly pouring on smoldering embers of hatred, fear and insecurity that some anti-Muslim forces are spreading here in the West. We are directly commissioned by our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah upon him) to undertake this mission of mercy when he mentioned to a group of his companions: "You will not enter Paradise until you are merciful."

The attack by the Pakistani Taliban, purportedly in retaliation for the Pakistani Army's offensive in Waziristan, illustrates the degree to which an anti-Islamic cult of death has permeated into the ranks of some groups claiming an affiliation with Islam. Be it Boko Haram, ISIS or the Taliban, no one is spared the Satanic wrath of these deranged murderers. Boko Haram blows up mosques filled with worshipers, kills school girls, kidnaps others and sells yet others into sexual bondage.

Rudy Giuliani, in discussing the case of Michael Brown's killing in Ferguson, Missouri, made the following statement, "I find it very disappointing," he told [Chuck] Todd, "that you're not discussing the fact that 93 percent of blacks in America are killed by other blacks. … I would like to see the attention paid to that that you are paying to this." In case one is wondering what is the basis of his fallacious analogy, Giuliani made it clear that he is wrestling with some deeper pathologies when he admonished his African American interlocutor, Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, "The white police… Read MorePosted on 2014-11-30
The recent killing of Tamir Rice in Cleveland, Ohio, casts more light on many of the issues relevant in the case of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. I mention this because those who argue that if African American males just act normal and mind our business these sort of killings would not happen. In this regard, my post on Ferguson, a few days ago, generated an informative and balanced discussion. Something was missed by all of the commentators at that time. Namely, virtually every victim of the police shootings I mentioned was acting normal at the time of his slaying. Read MorePosted on 2014-11-27
Let us give thanks for blessings we behold, Blessings transcending wealth –silver and gold. Let us remember those who've lost their way, Let us remember solemnly to pray.

Ferguson: While Race Still Matters By Imam Zaid Shakir Note: This essay was first posted in the immediate aftermath of the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. In the aftermath of the Grand Jury's decision not to indict the officer who killed Brown, a decision I totally expected, I am reposting it with the addition of a paragraph mentioning the police slaying of two Ohio youths, both African Americans, who have been fatally shot by police since Brown's killing in Ferguson.

My recent post on Halloween has created quite a stir. That being the case, I would like to clarify a few issues. First of all, the intended audience of that original post was Muslims, some of whom had asked me to write something on the issue. It was not intended for "pagans," nor was it intended to question their beliefs, per se. Rather, I was calling into question the actions of some Muslims who engage in practices informed by beliefs alien to our religion. Secondly, the style and brevity of what I wrote was dictated to a… Read MorePosted on 2014-10-27
One the tragedies of our times is found in the easy willingness some Muslims accept practices, rituals or cultural symbols that have their roots in demonic or occult practices. Halloween is a perfect example. Most scholars trace the origins of Halloween to the then pagan Celtic people who believed that on a certain night, the dead would come alive and could walk among the living. On this night some of these people would dress up in ghoulish costumes believing that the spirits of the dead would mistake them for one of their own and not harass them. Others would offer… Read More

Please just say "no" to the Global Poverty Act bill——we do not need the
abligation and the pork.
What's the deal with all of these SEPARATE bills for extending benefits? Our responses are DILUTED on the different bills. When they look for the number of comments, it looks like not many but when they add together the comments for all the UE extension bills introduced, they'd have to RESPOND to us!!!!
2544 is the one that:
- was introduced FIRST
- gives us a $50 increase
- should be pushed for by ALL of us
Make them honor KENNEDY and show empathy for US by passing that bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I need your help to END the use of two poisons that seriously threaten people, pets and our wildlife.
In 2006, sodium cyanide and sodium fluoroacetate (commonly called Compound 1080) killed an average of 1.6 animals every hour. These poisons are considered to be some of the deadliest toxins known to humanity. Yet, Wildlife Services, a division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), uses these two poisons to kill coyotes and other predators.
Will you help me end the use (and misuse) of these two poisons by urging the Environmental Protection Agency to eliminate sodium cyanide and sodium fluoroacetate?
Take action online at:
These poisons don't just threaten their intended targets. They often times poison any threatened or endangered species,
people or domestic pets that happen to come into contact with them.
Sodium cyanide is used in M-44s, which kill more than 10,000 animals each year, including domesticated dogs and a whole host of other "non-target" species, such as rare kit foxes, ringtails [http://en.wikipediaorg/wiki/Ring-tailed_Cat], javelinas [http://www.azgfd.gov/w_c/urban_javelina.shtml], and swift foxes.
M-44s have also killed California condors and wolves.
Compound 1080 can be deployed in poison collars placed on sheep and goats. It is highly toxic to birds and mammals and has been used to illegally kill wolves. Carcasses with Compound 1080 must be handled as hazardous waste. If ingested, they can kill wolves and other animals. Compound 1080 is classified as a chemical weapon in several countries.
The continued availability of these poisons, pose a great threat to people, pets and even homeland security.
Government reports have concluded that Wildlife Services has been "unable to account for stockpiles of the toxins", which leaves the hazardous materials vulnerable to undetected theft and certainly unauthorized use.
There are effective alternatives to these poisons, including a wide range of proactive, nonlethal methods such as fencing, guard animals, fladry lines, non-lethal ammunition and improved animal husbandry. For the safety of our people, our pets and our wildlife, will you take a few moments to help end the use of sodium cyanide and Compound 1080?
We only have until noon on Wednesday March 5th to submit our comments to the Environmental Protection Agency, so please take action today at:
Thanks for taking the time to help!

Can you help Cap'n Marcela save her village from Evil Puffy shirt Morgan?
3.93 / 5.00 6,135 ViewsBack again, Newgrounds, with another completely different game
Armies of glowing pixels wage war in this fast-paced tactical action game. Employ a mix of clever strategy and brute force to dominate your opponents. New surprises await you on each battlefield. Up to eight armies can fight with thousands of pixels on screen at once.
Controls: Point and click 'n drag
-Attempted workaround for endless line-drawing browser bug. Clicking on the game screen once should stop it if it occurs now.
-Fixed a score entry bug that could break the game.
-Tweaked The Boss to be less exploitable.
-Improved badge support.
-Bombing runs should stop on Victory.
-Resume button wasn't working in some cases.
-Disabled High Scores button since Mochi is blocked here.
-Fixed Level 13 so bases don't get pushed off-screen.
Fun game
I might be the only one having this problem but I'm constantly struggling with the controls. On big maps the arrow keys are always stuck in one direction and half of the time I try to select a new group, my currently selected group moves instead. A zoom feature would be nice for big maps instead of scrolling. Other than that this is a great game.
one of the best games I've ever played.
there are some parts of it that I dont enjoy as much, like the F&%#in carpet bombs the kept F@$#in killing my enitire army and the f%&#in move and death panels, but it is a game that is like all other RTS's yet different. no building units and such made things alot eisier. maybe make other things like the power sources (that make your army invinvible by the way).
You blew me away.
I've played a few games LIKE this (this is not a copy of any game I know of).
Normally I try it and hate them immediately, I was bored so I gave this a try.
I went through the whole thing and finished it. I loved every minute of it.
Its like you condensed an RTS into a simple pixel format. It was fun and satisfying.
Great game!
A few issues:
1. No multiplayer in a game that is perfect for it :(
2. A few minor control issues.
3. Delays and glitches when their are to many pixels on screen (honestly that might be my computers fault...i'm not sure.)
4. Some up-grades perhaps? Nothin big..faster troup production, higher attack power et ctera.
Really enjoyed this game its unique and very well put together. Great job!
If you make a sequel
The expansion capabilities to this game are relatively endless. But an important piece of advice if you do end up making a sequel is to keep in mind that people are rather picky about sequels. they commonly expect it to be the exact same game but different at the same time. so keep to the general idea of a very simple RTS game while adding neat little changes that keep people interested (like new environmental hazards/ powerups). this is just a suggestion to keep in mind if you decide to do a sequel.

Don Emiliano, San José del Cabo
San José del Cabo
Tel: 52 624 142 0266
Concierge.com's insider take:
At Don Emiliano's, elegant women with slicked-back chignons and courtly gentlemen in tailored guayaberas gossip in rapid Spanish as they judge haute Mexican cuisine à la Chef Margarita Carrillo de Salinas. Sophisticated diners who've tasted the latest from Mexico City's reinas de las cocinas (queens of the kitchens) sample tamales with seasonal baby spinach or huitlacoche wrapped in light masa, flaky empanadas stuffed with flor de calabaza, and an aromatic catch of the day glazed with achiote. Such regional ingredients do appear on other Mexican menus in Los Cabos, but Salinas uses them creatively, blending them into the popular shrimp chile rellenos with goat cheese sauce and crisp fried cilantro. Slatted wood awnings filter the dry Baja air into dining gardens and terraces where skillful mariachis display their mastery without blasting diners' eardrums. The menu always includes crowd-pleasures like jalapeño martinis, fresh artisan cheese with salsa verde, cinnamon ice cream, and chile–chocolate desserts.—Maribeth Mellin

Creating the message flow
Download the zip file at the bottom of the article and extract the contents into the directory C:\student\DOTNET\lab_msword.
- Assuming that the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit has not yet been started, from the Start menu,
choose Start => Programs => IBM WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit => IBM WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit 8.0 => WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit 8.0.
You will be asked for the location of a workspace -- the rest of this tutorial assumes that you are using
. - Close the Welcome screen and from your empty workspace, launch the Quick Start wizard: Click Start from WSDL and/or XSD, as shown below with the red box.
If you have chosen to use your own existing workspace, you can also launch the Quick Start menu by clicking on the New link at the top of the Broker Development view on the left side of the window:
- The Quick Start wizard requires an application name for the application in which the message flow and Web service definition will be located. Specify the name
and click Next: - On the next panel, select Use external resources and navigate to the artifacts provided in the download file. If you have followed the instructions so far, you will find them in the directory
. Select the Order.wsdl file, which contains the Web service definition, and then click Next: - On the final Binding Selection panel, accept the default settings, which will import the
(the WSDL file contains only one binding!). Click Finish: - When the wizard completes, you will see that a new application that contains the imported WSDL file and the XML schema file that it references. In the next step, you will use the WSDL file
to generate the message flow contents, as described by the pop-up box that the Message Broker Toolkit displays on completing the wizard:
- The message flow file
should already be open in the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit. Drag the WSDL file Order.wsdl and drop it on to the message flow canvas. The Configure New Web Service Usage wizard opens. The WSDL file is used to describe an interface to the flow and expose it as a Web service. Leave all of the default settings and click Finish: - The Broker Toolkit generates a message flow that has been populated with a SOAP Input node, a SOAP Reply node, and a subflow named
. The subflow extracts the body of the SOAP message and places it in the XMLNSC message domain, before returning to the main flow. In its current state, the message flow leaves a gap between the subflow and the SOAP Reply node. It is in this gap that you place a transformation that generates the Microsoft Word document, and also produces a reply message of the correct format, which is passed to the SOAP Reply node to send back to the Web service client: - Place a .NETCompute node from the Transformation drawer of the flow palette into the message flow between the Order subflow node and the SOAPReply node.
Wire the node terminals as shown below:
- Right-click the .NETCompute node and select Open Microsoft Visual Studio to launch Microsoft Visual Studio, which you will use to develop the C# code
that the .NETCompute node will use to integrate with the logical message tree and create the Microsoft Word document:
You will return to the message flow once you have written and built the C# code in Microsoft Visual Studio.

OK, found my notes (I'm at the office, not the dkrm). DEV: start w 300ml H2O, mix in sequence
25ml A, 12ml B, 25ml C, add water to make 500ml. BLIX: (sorry, this is in US fluid oz, but the volume
is about right to your needs - just convert with a calculator): start w 250ml H2O, add 63ml A, 93ml B,
add water to 16 US fl oz. Again, this is based on the US packaging. I don't know why the ratios would

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"These thank you cards are clean, well-designed, and elegant, giving a classy feel to the thank you note. Additionally, the light design in the corner allows for flair while leaving plenty of space for our genuine thoughts. Also, they were delivered several days ahead of the predicted schedule. The WPD know what they're doing."
"I had ordered a menu card to use as a Thank You card. Kristen called to help me with my ordered and suggested that I use the response card. I put a picture of us on the front and below it said Thank you and our names. On the back "Thank you for attending our wedding and for those that could not make it you were missed" Blessings & Love It showed up in 5 days. The card is beautiful and just what I wanted. The customer service was excellent!"
"This thank you card is elegantly designed and finished beautifully. A metallic color, like gold or silver, on the black background really stands out, and looks great! Perfect card for a formal wedding and thank you card!"
"The cards where easy to customize and WPD where very swift with making the changes and send us a proof to review and approve. When we ordered the matching invitations we had some major customization done since we are Swedish and wanted all the text in Swedish and also writing on the back. WPD where extremely easy to work with than and also this time. The paper has a very nice, thick and somewhat structured feel that looks expensive. Its thick enough so that a thin pen wouldn't show from the other side when writing your note on the inside. I love this design and I can't wait to send them to our guests after the wedding."
"Loved the card only problem is that I thought it was just the front decor and plane back side, it is a card you can open if you want to have someone at wedding paper divas write something inside the card for you be very specific because mine came with the writing on the back/outside of the card which looked really weird. But nice card if done correctly"

Corpse sat in front of TV for months
Comment on this storyBerlin - The corpse of a 66-year-old German woman who died more than six months ago was found in her apartment, in front of a television set that was still on, the Frankfurter Neue Presse newspaper reported on Tuesday.
The woman, in the town of Oberursel near Frankfurt, died of natural causes in a nightgown while watching TV. There was a programme guide from September nearby, the newspaper said, describing the body as "partially mummified".
Police said residents in the 30-apartment block had noticed an unpleasant smell in the staircase but no one had informed the authorities. The landlord opened the apartment after noticing the her mailbox jammed with uncollected letters.

(MOSCOW) -- Edward Snowden apparently should not hold his breath waiting for the United States to offer him clemency on charges related to his disclosures of classified government documents. In an article published Sunday in the German news magazine Der Spiegel, Snowden argues that he has initiated an important debate about whether American spies are overreaching.
"Instead of causing damage, the usefulness of the new public knowledge for society is now clear because reforms to politics, supervision and laws are being suggested," he writes in an article entitled "Manifesto for the Truth." "Citizens have to fight against the suppression of information about affairs of essential importance for the public. Those who speak the truth are not committing a crime," Snowden writes.
Dianne Feinstein, the Democratic chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said on the CBS program Face the Nation Sunday that Snowden has done an "enormous disservice to our country and I think the answer is no clemency."
Her Republican counterpart, Mike Rogers of Michigan, agreed. "No, I don't see any reason" to grant clemency, he said on the CBS program. "I wouldn't do that. He needs to come back and own up. We can have those conversations, if he believes there are vulnerabilities he'd like to disclose."
Senior White House advisor Dan Pfeiffer said on ABC's This Week Sunday that there had been no consideration of clemency, and that Snowden should return to the U.S. to face charges.
Snowden has been granted temporary asylum in Russia.

A new rule from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) removes an unanticipated roadblock resulting from the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act (CARD Act) which was signed into law three years ago this month. The law deliberately set a tough standard for anyone under the age of 21 who applied for a credit card.
The CFPB's new rule issued last week, revises the Fed's rule and allows credit card companies to consider the household income for any applicant 21 years or older who can show they have "access" to that shared money.
It has been left up to the CC companies whether to consider individual income or "available income". There will still be some responsible people denied certain cards.

And Esther found favor in the eyes of all who saw her. | 15 When the turn came for Esther (the girl Mordecai had adopted, the daughter of his uncle Abihail) to go to the king, she asked for nothing other than what Hegai, the king's eunuch who was in charge of the harem, suggested. And Esther won the favor of everyone who saw her. |

What would you pick for a purple clematis - Jackmanii or Polish Spirit. |

I can't really say since I don't grow Jackmanii and my Polish Spirit is new, but I will say that I bought it because someone here said it bloomed its head off for her. I'm hoping for good things. |
I would choose Polish Spirit because Jackmanni is the more common one around here. I like having something different. That said, my second clematis was Jackmanni because that was all I could find. Happily nowadays the nurseries in the area and the big box stores carry many varieties. Polish Spirit just opened today and it is lovely, such a deep purple and nice sized. I now have about 90 different clematis plants growing in my gardens or waiting in my holding bed for a trellis and a permanent location. |

My Polish Spirit is about 5 years old, is fabulous, a blooming machine, love it. Have 100 + clems and have never bought Jackmanii for the same reason mngal stated....it's the common one everybody has. Just planted two yesterday with 10 more waiting on the deck. MN gal....think we are on the same wave-length!!! Guess that's why I have over 200 varieties of hosta but not "the green & white one." Marlene |

Have about 30 or so clems of various kinds in my St. Paul MN garden, including Polish Spirit and Jackmanii. I love them both, but were I to be limited to a single clematis if would doubtless be the venerable--and perhaps overused--Jackman (not Jackman superba, which in its transformation seems to have lost the amazing glistening purple of the original). Just my $.02, of course. Gary |

I had my Jackmani for 33 years now and, (since I learned the proper pruning recently) is just one massive mass of purple. I added a Polish Spirit last year, and it has grown amazingly well and large but has not bloomed as yet so I will keep you posted. |
