Yachtsman Steak house or Captians Grille?
Which is better and what did you like and why?
We've never eaten at Captains Grille, but we loved Yachtsman Steakhouse. The filet we had was so tender you could cut it with a butter knife. We loved the quiet atmosphere and we had a great table as we were seated close to a window where we had a beautiful view of SAB at night, which made a great dinner setting :goodvibes.
Captains Grille is a decent casual place with good food. Yachtsman Steakhouse is a signature place with incredible food and service but a high price tag. What are you looking for?

If you have a choice I would stay away from Captains Grill. Really nothing special. I have eaten there several times food average and service below average.
Yachtsman is very good. Great food and service. |
They are very different in terms of level of food and service and it's like comparing apples to oranges.That said I would pick Yachtsmen hands down.
There is a reason that Yachtsman is signature dining & the other is not......Yachtsman is much better. No contest.
I actually don't consider them an either this or that. They are two totally different places with entirely different menus.
If you are looking for a wonderful steak then YSH. The only thing they have in common are location. IMHO! We do like the pre fixe option at CG. Food was good - service was so slow it was insane! We just ate there Friday night - I kept blaming DH and asking him why he had to order chowder....it takes a long time to make. Seriously two hour dinner. |
If you want a steakhouse, Shulas in the Swan/Dolphin is great. It's not a Disney restaurant but its one of the top steakhouses in the US

We haven't been to Yachtsman yet, but we have always enjoyed Captain's Grille for dinner. We've only had good food and service, although I agree that it's a bit slow there. It's more of a leisurely casual dinner. Prices are good, though.
The Yachtsman is hands-down our favorite!!
I was at WDW a couple of weeks ago and had the Deluxe Dining Plan. We LOVED Yachtsman Steakhouse. The service and food were our favorite of the trip.
We did have an unplanned breakfast at Captain's Grill and also enjoyed that. It was nice to have a casual but very tasty breakfast buffet at the end of our trip. |
Yachtsman is awesome. Captain's Grille is fine. We walked in without reservations to a dining room that was 90% empty. Food was decent, but certainly not something I'd plan ahead for. Not with all the choices at Disney.
we just went to the yachtsmen & it was my favorite steak out of all of the ones we had :) get the truffle mac & chz!!!!
Our one experience with YS was just "so-so". On the other hand, we recently had dinner at Capt.'s Grill & had a great dinner. I second the statement about Shulas. It's in a league of its own!:thumbsup2

Oh gosh, I haven't made a quest thread in such a long time. O A O! Getting overwhelmed already.
-Ahem- Anyways, I am questing several items from the Culinary Coliseum RIG. Too many items. > A >
This RIG simply has too many items that I adore and would love to use in my future avatars/outfits.
Currently thanks to a bit of gold I had lying about and a few very generous donators, I have obtained 12 items.
I will be listing the donators in the post below along with my progress regarding this quest and what items I am aiming for.
I would love some assistance. If you see a good deal or if you can give me some questing advice, that would be very helpful.
Also, thank you o' glorious donators for the kindness you have showed me. All of you are simply fantastic. <3
Ah and one more thing. Since I will be here questing for a while, I am always up for a chat to pass the time.

Portal:Nazi Germany
Germany made increasingly aggressive demands, threatening war if they were not met. Britain and France responded with appeasement, hoping Hitler would finally be satisfied. Hitler invaded Poland in September 1939, starting World War II in Europe. In alliance with Benito Mussolini's Italy, Germany conquered France and most of Europe by 1940, and threatened its remaining major foe: Great Britain. Concentration camps, established as early as 1933, were used to hold political prisoners and opponents of the regime. The number of camps quadrupled between 1939 and 1942 to 300+, as slave-laborers from across Europe, Jews, political prisoners, criminals, homosexuals, gypsies, the mentally ill and others were imprisoned. The system which began as an instrument of political oppression culminated in the mass genocide of Jews and others deemed undesirable in the Holocaust.
Following the German invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, the tide turned against the Third Reich with the major military defeats of the Battle of Stalingrad and the Battle of Kursk in 1943. The Soviet counter-attacks became the largest land battles in history. Germany was overrun in 1945 by the Soviets from the east and the Allies from the west. After the surrender of Nazi Germany, the victorious Allies initiated a policy of denazification and put the Nazi leadership on trial for war crimes at the Nuremberg Trials.
Selected article
Although Australia was remote from the main battlefronts, there was considerable Axis naval activity in Australian waters during the Second World War. A total of 54 German and Japanese warships and submarines entered Australian waters between 1940 and 1945 and attacked ships, ports and other targets. Among the best-known attacks is the sinking of HMAS Sydney by a German raider in November 1941. In addition, many Allied merchant ships were damaged or sunk off the Australian coast by submarines and mines.
Due to the episodic nature of the Axis attacks and the relatively small number of ships and submarines committed, Germany and Japan were not successful in disrupting Australian shipping. While the Allies were forced to deploy substantial assets to defend shipping in Australian waters, this did not have a significant impact on the Australian war effort or American-led operations in the South West Pacific Area. |
Selected biography
Albert Kesselring (1885 – 1960) was a German Luftwaffe Generalfeldmarschall during World War II. In a military career that spanned both World Wars, Kesselring became one of Nazi Germany's most skilful commanders and was one of the most popular generals of World War II with the rank and file.
During World War II he commanded air forces in the invasions of Poland and France, the Battle of Britain, and Operation Barbarossa. As Commander-in-Chief South, he was overall German commander in the Mediterranean theatre, which included the operations in North Africa. In the final campaign of the war, he commanded German forces on the Western Front. He won the respect of his Allied opponents for his military accomplishments, but his record was marred by massacres committed by troops under his command in Italy. After the war, Kesselring was tried for war crimes and sentenced to death. The sentence was subsequently commuted to life imprisonment. A political and media campaign resulted in his release in 1952, ostensibly on health grounds. He was one of only three Generalfeldmarschalls to publish his memoirs, entitled Soldat bis zum letzten Tag (A Soldier to the Last Day). |
Selected battle
The Battle of Moscow refers to two periods of strategically significant fighting on a 600 km (370 mi) sector of the Eastern Front during World War II. It took place between October 1941 and January 1942. The Soviet defensive effort frustrated Hitler's attack on Moscow, capital of the USSR and the largest Soviet city. Moscow was one of the primary military and political objectives for Axis forces in their invasion of the Soviet Union.
Initially, the Soviet forces conducted a strategic defence of the Moscow Oblast by constructing three defensive belts, and deploying newly raised reserve armies as well as bringing troops from the Siberian and Far Eastern Military Districts. Subsequently, as the German offensives were halted, a Soviet strategic counter-offensive and smaller-scale offensive operations were executed to force German armies back to the positions around the cities of Oryol, Vyazma and Vitebsk, nearly surrounding three German armies in the process. |
Selected picture
Selected battleship
Bismarck was the first of two Bismarck-class battleships built for the German Kriegsmarine. Named after Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the primary force behind the unification of Germany in 1871, the ship was laid down at the Blohm & Voss shipyard in Hamburg in July 1936 and launched two and a half years later in February 1939. Work was completed in August 1940, when she was commissioned into the German fleet. Bismarck and her sister ship Tirpitz were the largest battleships ever built by Germany, and two of the largest built by any European power. She was destroyed by a pair of British battleships on 27 May 1941. |

McCall pleased to have Daley threat
The Jamaica international has now played two first-team games with four substitute outings since snapping his cruciate ligament over a year ago. McCall heaped praise on the midfielder after the 28-year-old helped influence an unlikely comeback win at Torquay last Saturday, which helped his side to their first win since early December. The Bantams boss told the Telegraph & Argus: "In both games where he has played 90 minutes, Omar has got stronger as time has gone on. "When we first came to the club he couldn't play three games in a week. You'd have to take him off after 60-65 minutes because he physically wasn't up to it. "So credit to him and the medical staff for working so well on his fitness. He has come back in brilliant condition. He is such a threat with his pace and ability, even more so if he can still do it towards the end of the game when opponents are tired."

Fifty Is The New Forty, But Thirty Is The New Mid-Life Crisis
A recent study done by a British counseling group (RELATE) found that those mid-life perils that once occurred in our late 40's and 50's are now happening in our early and mid 30's. The signs and symptoms reported in the British survey are also showing up here in the United States.
The economic issue is a big part of the symptoms of mid-life crisis. People who put their faith in their career are being downsized, pressed to do more work with less money, and are feeling minimized by their employer. Due to their work schedule, they are feeling more isolated and clinging to what they do have. This makes healthy relationships more and more unlikely.
The mid life crisis that emerges in younger adults is reported to be just as intense as the crisis for adults in their 50's. The issues are very different though. Younger people tend to focus on themselves. For example, you may not be worried if you are going to become empty nesters because many of you haven't built your nest yet. Also, having an aging parent is not usually high on your crisis list as many of your parents are still relatively young.
Here are a few issues that may push a 30 year old into a mid-life crisis:
• You begin to realize that school pursuits did not secure you the job you dreamed it would.
• You began to notice your parents aging process, only to realize you are next.
• You may begin to feel that, no matter what actions you take, you cannot have the "dream."
• You may be working so hard you begin to have insecurity concerning your ability to love yourself or anyone else.
• You don't feel like you are making any difference in the world with your career.
• You may have terrible luck with an intimate relationship or not be able to secure an intimate relationship.
• You may begin to wish for your old college days. You begin to compare your looks now to your college days and may not like what you see.
• Your job or lifestyle may have contributed to the loss of high school or college friends.
• You find yourself under stress with loans for school, a new home, or owning a business.
• You may want children, but see no prospective mate.
• You feel like you drew the short straw when you compare yourself to others that are your same age.
How do you prevent a mid-life crisis or get out of one if you experiencing these symptoms? Here are few suggestions:
1. Beginning this week try something new each week. Many times we get into a crisis when we keep doing the same thing the same way. We become old before our time. Add some adventure and fun.
2. Stop regretting the past or telling yourself it was the best time of your life. It really wasn't, and this is a delusion you tell yourself to bring yourself down further.
3. Don't compare yourself to other people your age. Life is not a race, and for that one time everyone else may be ahead of you in their chosen career. If you follow them for five years you will either surpass them or grow in another direction with equal speed.

Recap: Pittsburgh vs. Miami
Pittsburgh, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - Gregory Polanco drove in four runs and Edinson Volquez tossed seven strong innings to lead the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 7-2 victory over the Miami Marlins in the rubber match of a three-game set on Thursday.
Jordy Mercer finished 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored and Starling Marte had a pair of hits and scored twice for the Pirates, who have won eight of their last nine games against Miami at PNC Park.
Volquez (9-7) surrendered just one hit and three walks, while striking out seven batters to improve to 6-0 in seven career starts against the Marlins.
"He had a really good fastball tonight," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said of Volquez. "I thought his pace and rhythm was a good as we've seen all year."
Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run homer in the ninth inning for Miami, which has dropped three of its last four games. Starter Brian Flynn (0-1) was tagged with the loss after giving up five runs on eight hits over four-plus innings.
Mercer led off the fourth with a double down the left-field line, moved to third on Flynn's wild pitch and scored on Russell Martin's chopper off the glove of third baseman Donovan Solano. Two batters later, Marte stroked a ground-rule double off the warning track in left and Jayson Nix walked to load the bases.
Polanco's liner into left field brought in Martin and Marte to make it a 3-0 game.
In the fifth, Josh Harrison opened the frame with a single to left, stole second and came home on Mercer's single up the middle. After Flynn walked Martin, Sam Dyson was greeted by Gaby Sanchez's RBI base hit to center.
Miami reliever Dan Jennings recorded one out in the seventh before Mercer's liner hit him in the side of the head and knocked him to the ground before it was caught by shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria. Jennings struggled, but got off the ground and walked a few feet before collapsing to his knees. He remained conscious, but seemed disoriented. Jennings was taken off the field in a cart and waved to the crowd after he received a standing ovation.
The Marlins said later that Jennings' CT scan was negative and that he had a concussion. He was being held overnight in the hospital for observation.
"The scans were negative-it seems I'm going to be ok," Jennings tweeted late Thursday. "The support shown tonight has been unbelievable, speechless."
Polanco's two-run double to right gave the Pirates a 7-0 lead in the eighth.
Christian Yelich singled with two outs in the ninth and Stanton's two run blast to center field two batters later off Stolmy Pimentel accounted for the final score.

The perfect trip: Cambodia
This richly verdant pocket of southwest Cambodia is an area of protected forests and conservation corridors. What really preserves it, though, is its impenetrability – a dense web of jungle canopies enveloping a smattering of small villages and, latterly, eco-resorts. No surprise that the Cardamom Mountains was one of the last strongholds of the Khmer Rouge, with militants hiding out here for nearly two decades after the regime's barbarous heyday in the late '70s.
Hand-cleared paths linking isolated villages now serve as trekking routes for those looking to explore a less familiar side of the country. One such link, between the villages of Takat and Tuleki, clearly serves as a major thoroughfare. 'The trails became well worn,' says guide Ravy, Vy for short, 'because those two villages are good friends.'
Red, white and black crabs emerge to bathe in puddles, while a troop of long-tailed macaques flits through the trees with a cacophany of screeching. On damp logs, mushrooms flourish. One type of these is used in spring rolls, another in mice poison. 'Luckily, they look very different,' says Vy.
Leaves that will later be used to wrap sticky rice are glistening, and an 'ant house' – a tiny, box-shaped nest made of leaves – has been dislodged by droplets and lies on the ground. Villagers will employ this in traditional medicine. Little goes to waste in such a remote and bountiful environment.
Midway along the path, a woman and her two sons emerge from the jungle carrying weathered shopping baskets full of wild mushrooms. Other days they might contain frogs. 'When it rains, we go out in the early morning with a torch to get them,' says Vy. He does the same with durian in season. 'They fall in the night, so I come out at 5am before anyone else can take them.'
Back at the Tatai River, the sky is putting on a show of pinks and violets, while monsoon clouds churn in the distance. Birds start to shift and sing, and the forest rustles with the sounds of animals heading out on their evening rounds – and villagers returning home with firewood.
Takeo province: Best for rural life
When Siphen Meas was growing up in the '80s, her family lived off the land. Like most Cambodians, they'd lost their property and savings during the four-year rule of the Khmer Rouge that ended in 1979. Unlike many, they'd escaped with their lives. 'We didn't go shopping. We found our own fruit and grew our own vegetables,' she says. 'After school I'd pick greens to eat, fish in the lake or go to the bush to get firewood.'
Today, Siphen and her family shop all the time – nearby Angk Tasoam market is a favourite – but they still work the land in their village of Prey Theat, around two hours south of Phnom Penh. And it provides generously, producing rice, taro, coconut and mango. She now runs a homestay with her husband Mach, a fellow English teacher. Their house is surrounded by paddy fields, in which ducks frolic under the irate gaze of yoked oxen, as children wobble past on oversized bicycles. A neighbour harvests snails and small fish from a paddy field using a woven-basket scoop, stopping to pass the time of day with a family on a scooter – two children sandwiched uncomplainingly between their parents on the slender seat.
Rice season is July to December, and everyone pitches in – even homestay guests. 'They work hard,' says Siphen with a smile, 'and the villagers laugh and say, "Why do they want to work like that?".'

Another dispute has to do with job security and teacher "recall" – specifically whether laid-off teachers will have the right to be the first hired back once the city is hiring again.
The city has made some concessions on that issue already, offering to put teachers in a reassigned teacher pool for five months, or giving some teachers recall rights for a year, depending on the reason they were laid off, such as school closings, school turnaround efforts, or other reasons. But the mayor has said he needs to give principals at new schools the chance to hire the teachers they want, not just former CPS teachers who lost their jobs.
"I see this as one local union trying to dig in its heels [against] any major changes," says Eric Hanushek, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution in Stanford, Calif., a frequent union critic and advocate of increased accountability for teachers. "My own view is that it's not in the interest of unions to do this."
But with the standoff in Chicago just taking shape, it was unclear on Monday who was gaining the upper hand – and in the event the strike goes on for any length of time, Chicagoans may give the blame to the mayor.
"People tend to see teacher strikes more through the lens of their child's teacher," says Mr. Knowles of the University of Chicago.
And some observers around the country are wondering whether Emanuel, President Obama's former chief of staff, miscalculated just how far he could push the union.

Hello again, my dedicated colleagues! My research on these ever-changing items has resulted in some very interesting findings. We've got an update on Zodiacal and this week's episode of Custom Cut:
- Zodiacal shifts to the sign of the diplomatic Libra. Sensitive and idealistic, Libra strives for balance in all aspects of life. Like their wearer, their armor embodies civilized justice and equilibrium. Diamond plate encrusted in delicate white gold is balanced with trailing deep blue silk and winged details.
Luka has made it through the first round on Custom Cut with his handmade asymmetrical sweater. The next challenge will have the contestants updating yet another classic piece into a sexier and edgier show-stopper. But first it's time to pick out fabrics at the famous Attitude fabric shop! Luka grabs his lucky hat and begins round 2...
I can't wait to see what progress will be made next week! But in the meantime, head over to the Cash Shop to get your own EIs and visit the weekly EI poll to vote for your favorites! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

FREDONIA - A steady stream of tourists drove into the Grand Canyon's North Rim on Monday as a road closure prompted by a 58,600-acre wildfire was lifted. The North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park and Highway 67, the only paved highway leading to the remote area, was closed midway through last week after the fire jumped the roadway.
The opening of the North Rim and the highway on Monday morning came as higher humidity levels and rain aided crews in building a line completely around the fire, which hadn't increased in size for several days.
''There was a steady stream of visitors,'' said park spokeswoman Maureen Oltrogge. ''People arrived early and seemed very enthusiastic to have the (North Rim) open again.''
The fire, about 25 miles north of the North Rim, was 70 percent contained. Full containment was expected by this evening.
It started burning June 8 in the Kaibab National Forest and hadn't reached Grand Canyon National Park.
The section of the Kaibab National Forest that tourists will drive past on their way to the North Rim remains closed until officials determine that it's safe to open it again, said Jacki Denk, a spokeswoman for the team fighting the blaze.
CROWN KING - Containment of a nearly 6,600-acre wildfire complex near this mountain community about 50 miles north of Phoenix had reached 90 percent by Monday.
Crews attribute their success in confronting both fires and protecting Crown King to weekend rains that kept down the spread of flames and presented an opportunity to make more progress in building protection lines around the blaze.
Full containment was expected by today.
Crews focused Monday on strengthening containment lines and putting out any small remaining hot spots in the blaze's perimeter, said Stuart Bishop, a spokesman for the team fighting the blaze. The complex consists of two blazes — the 5,140-acre Tiger fire and 1,425-acre Rock fire.
Some of the fire restrictions on public access at Tonto National Forest have been lifted.
U.S. Forest Service officials announced Monday that they were allowing the public into the Mogollon Rim and Pinal Mountains because increased humidity has reduced the fire danger.
Campfires will be allowed in designated fire rings at campgrounds on the Payson Ranger District, which includes Ponderosa, Houston Mesa, Tonto Creek, Christopher Creek and Sharp Creek.
Campfires and charcoal are still allowed at Tonto's lakes and rivers, but only in the fire rings and pedestal grills at developed recreation sites.
But campfires are still prohibited on the Pleasant Valley and Globe ranger districts. That includes campgrounds at Canyon Creek, along Young Road and in the Pinal Mountains.
For information, visit www.fs.fed.us/r3/tonto, or call (602) 225-5200.
Western fires
Nevada: An air tanker made an emergency landing in southern Nevada, officials said Monday, as a new wildfire threatened a communications site in remote mountains where firefighters are battling blazes that have burned about 38,000 acres of a huge wildlife refuge.
In northern Nevada, firefighters were nearing containment of the nearly 80,000-acre Suzie fire, which closed a 20-mile stretch of Interstate 80 west of Elko early last week, and the 10,400-acre Sneekee fire 35 miles southwest of Elko.
Utah: In southwestern Utah, the complex of wildfires had consumed nearly 42,000 acres by Monday.
California: A 500-acre fire just west of Yosemite National Park knocked down power lines.

Looking at a Hunter 27 for first Sailboat

Rep Power:
As you have seen, in the price range you are looking, there are many more bad boats than good. You found a promising one in this Hunter27, so keep looking so you have a comparison.
Things to look out for on the H27 include :
rotten compression post at base of mast. If it has it, there will be a very noticeable depression around the mast step, and lots of cracking. Its repairable, but i'd Keep looking, if you see it.
Leaks around deck hardware, mast, and soft spots on deck, particularly where the stays and shrouds attach. The rigging does not have use chain plates, which I don't particularly like, but it's fine worked for 30+ Yrs.
Check the rudder for delam of outer skin. Can indicate interior damage. Its easily repairable but critical.
Check keel bolts, and the stringers for evidence of hard groundings, improper blocking.
Motor: The one cylinder diesel motors are definitely more clunky and loud, but I have soundproofing around mine (repowered by PO with Yanmar 1gm10) and it's manageable. The 2cylinder's are smoother/quieter but you'll be hard pressed to find on on a 27 footer. 10 hp is adequate to hit 6k in flat water, slower in the chop. Still preferable to an Outboard. They are very durable if maintained.
So, you can find good boats in this price range, but as you have seen, it'll take time and you'll see a lot of crappy boats. I looked at tons of Catalinas, C&C's, Hunters, bene's, etc. Good luck in the hunt, take your time, and have fun. The right boat will find you.

Canine hydrotherapy
Canine hydrotherapy is a form of hydrotherapy directed at the treatment of chronic conditions, post-operative recovery, and pre-operative or general fitness in dogs.
A number of conditions in dogs may be aggravated by or may show slow or no improvement as a result of weight bearing exercise. Among these are hip dysplasia and osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), conditions most common in medium to large purebred dogs, such as German Shepherds, Labradors or Golden Retrievers; chronic degenerative radiculomyelopathy (CDRM), a degenerative disease of the spinal cord which causes hind limb problems in German Shepherds; and luxating patella which is seen predominantly in small and toy breeds.
Injuries to the cruciate ligament or other ligaments may make post-operative weight-bearing exercise in dogs problematic. Obese dogs, while requiring exercise, may aggravate existing conditions or injure themselves due to the weight exerted on their joints if walked normally.
Hydrotherapy for humans has been used since ancient times, and some attempt at formalizing treatment was made during the 18th century. Similarly, the benefits of sea water for the treatment and prevention of leg injuries in horses has been known for centuries. Because of the financial benefits surrounding the treatment of race horses, around the mid-19th century inventors began to produce devices to replicate the benefits of cold sea water immersion for horses.
The greyhound racing industry eventually recognized the benefits of the equine treatment. From there, the therapy was extended to dogs in general.
Pool design[edit]
Pool designs for canine hydrotherapy vary, but most have generic elements. The pool tends to be smaller than a human swimming pool and is heated. (This is unlike equine hydrotherapy pools. Horses generate a lot of body heat when swimming, so equine pools use cold water to prevent the animal overheating.) A dog's muscles benefit from the warming effects of the heated water. Most pools have a ramp for entry and exit and some have harnesses to maintain the dog in position in the water. There may be a manual or electric hoist for lifting dogs in and out of the water. Water is chlorinated or treated with an alternative chemical. Some have jets to add resistance and make the dog swim more strongly.
Westcoast were the first official company to produce and sell to the veterinary and public sectors in 1988,[citation needed] with pools all over the world.[citation needed]
As an alternative or complement to weight-bearing exercise and medication, canine hydrotherapy may speed recovery after operations or slow the progression of degenerative conditions. It may be used as a pre-operative fitness regime to allow a dog to maintain condition before an operation if it can not exercise normally. When a congenital condition is identified in a puppy, it may be the case that surgery is not possible until the animal is physically mature; during the period preceding the surgery, hydrotherapy can be employed to maintain the dog's condition.
Spinal injuries or surgery can cause impairment of motor function, which may be treated by allowing the dog to exercise in water; it provides support and allows the dog to exercise its muscles while nerve regeneration is taking place. Degenerative conditions can make normal weight bearing exercise difficult and pressure on joints and limbs may aggravate some conditions, so hydrotherapy can be used in these cases to allow the dog to exercise in an environment where there is no pressure on the affected areas.
Obese dogs can build fitness and lose weight as a result of exercise in a hydrotherapy pool without putting excessive weight on their joints. Hydrotherapy may be used as part of a general fitness routine for dogs.

Saudi oil minister, Ali al-Naimi has said the kingdom plans to build a plant able to turn crude directly into chemicals, without first having to refine the oil, Reuters has reported. The proposed is to be build at Yanbu, in conjunction with Saudi Basic Industries Corp (SABIC), one of the world's largest chemicals companies. "An innovative technology is being studied by the ministry, in collaboration with SABIC, to set up an integrated industrial complex for the production of petrochemicals from crude oil without the need to build a conventional oil refinery," Naimi told a conference in the Red Sea coastal port of Yanbu. The world's first plant that processes crude oil into chemicals was started up by ExxonMobil in Singapore last year.

Bill introduced to fund school project
Rochester, N.Y. -- Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren is voicing her concern about Phase 2 of the Rochester City School District's modernization project.
Warren and City Council President Loretta Scott sent a letter to local lawmakers urging them to amend the bill that would fund $435 million for this phase of the project.
13WHAM News has learned the FBI is looking into the first phase of the modernization project.
Warren says The City of Rochester strongly opposes the current bill because it does not protect public dollars.
The Rochester City School District's facilities modernization project involves at least $1.2 billion in taxpayer funds and it could span two decades before it is all complete.
Sen. Joseph Robach, R-Greece introduced the bill on Monday.

What Amnesty Means For The Country In Practical Terms: 7 Million New Welfare Recipients
Is it mean to point that out if it's the truth?
The U.S. doesn't need unskilled labor. The authors trot out "The nation needs energetic young workers to spur the economy and support an ever-increasing social-welfare burden." Uh, immigrants are around twice as likely as the native-born to be poor and use welfare. Among Hispanic immigrants, who represent the lion's share of the low-skilled workers the op-ed says we need "to support an ever-increasing social-welfare burden," the majority are on welfare. This isn't because they're lazy spongers – fully one-third of immigrant households with a worker present are on welfare. The problem is that a post-industrial, knowledge-based economy doesn't need additional low-skilled workers. As Milton Friedman famously said, "It's just obvious you can't have free immigration and a welfare state."
Advocates for illegal immigration LOVE to claim that illegals will do jobs "that Americans won't do." Of course, that's not true. A more accurate statement would be, "Because illegals don't buy health care or car insurance and they cheat on their taxes, they can do the same jobs as law abiding Americans at a lower cost."
But setting that aside, what are the jobs we're talking about? Picking strawberries? Handyman work? Cutting brush?
Although we may have a few exceptions, say in the construction industry, most illegals are doing manual labor that doesn't require an education or any special skills. There's nothing wrong with that work, but typically, it pays very little and it's a young man's game. Put another way, most people who do that sort of work aren't paying income tax when they're young and are unable to do it when they're old because it's too strenuous.
So, if you're talking about illegals, you're talking about people who would take more money out of the system than they'll ever put into it.
As a nation, why do we want to bring in people to collect welfare, food stamps, end up on disability and generally take more than they give? Yes, that's not every illegal immigrant, but it is a good description of the majority of illegals and we're being told we essentially have a choice between "all" or "none." Again, there's nothing wrong with any honest job, including picking oranges and strawberries, but as a nation we'd benefit much more from bringing in scientists, engineers, and computer programmers than people who bring nothing of significance to the table other than a willingness to break the law in order to do manual labor at below market labor rates.

I can drive to about 5 different Home Depots if I wanted to to get bulbs.
My question is what might be good choices or odd bulbs. I have more cannas then I need stored now and more elephant ears then I need now, so I want to try something new(no Iris I have lots). Will the peonys have flowers this year,what about the Peruvian daffodil? Done dahails. Looking for a thrre season effect with roses and perenials. Stanc |
Follow-Up Postings:
The peonies will not flower this season, but will likely have a bloom or two next season. It takes them a while to get established, but will then be fine undisturbed for many years. what about the Peruvian daffodil? . They are not hardy in your area, or mine, so they would either have to be planted in containers and brought in for the winter, or else dug and stored much like cannas and dahlias. Sue |

I got a pack of Crocosmia for Hummingbirds, hopefully. Some crocosmia varieties are hardy to zone 4. I'm planning on starting crocosmia bulbs indoors under lights in April to foster possible bloom this year. We'll see how it works out. First time with summer bulbs. The package I got was only labeled as "Red" but they should be fine here in zone 6. Picture on package looks closest to Emberglow. Don't know if HD out by you carries named varieties or just generic color identifications for these Holland imports. Don't know if you're going to pot or plant inground so that will impact variety choice, i.e. either overwinter pots/bulbs/tubers indoors or can leave in ground. I had Acidanthera (Peacock Orchid/Abyssinian Glad... Gladiolus callianthus) last year and they were lovely towards late Summer right through frost. Not the length of bloom time you're looking for but they're lovely as arching accents. Not hardy in either of our zones but I got a package anyway since I liked them so much last year. Ones I dug and stored last year got soft out in unheated garage so guess if I want to overwinter them successfully I'd have to use basement. If I didn't have so much deer decimation I'd have gotten some of the Dahlias. They had varying heights and flower forms. Also saw Anemone mixes and double Tuberose. Good luck finding what you want. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Some Crocosmia Zone hardiness info.
I choose the Acidenthera(Gladiolus callienthus). I have grown them before and these were certainly minimum quality. If they bloom this year I will be surprised. They are the same as other gladiolus in culture except they take much longer than the 90 days to bloom of most gladiolus. I also chose Tigretia ot tiger lily,a native of Mexico, a very colorful flower I have not grown in many years. Both of these I planted in large pots to allow them to moved around during the season. Each bulb is only given about two inches clearance and they will probably need support. Al |
You get coupons in your area? That's nice. Never see them here. HD is on my shopping list for today, need to go see what dahlias they have. I start those indoors soon. I grew the Peruvian daffodils once. Interesting and exotic form, but each bulb had only 1 or 2 flowers. That might be fine is early spring when you are glad to see anything, but not later. It bloomed mid-season, when there were a lot of other things going on that last longer. Mine were white and did not stand out much. I had planned to dig them up, but took a trip at the wrong time and that did not happen. I understand (from reading here) that they produce a lot of offsets which means if you do dig them you will have a lot for the next year. I think they would be more effective in mass, and/or planting them at staggered intervals to extend blooming. I plan to try them again if they are cheap enough. |
linnea56: you have to join the HD Garden Club to get the coupons. Go online to join and they will email them to you every month. |
By the way - when I asked my HD store if they accepted online coupons they said 'no.' But the clerk saw them and said, 'Oh, we accept the garden ones. Those are the only ones we take.' FYI. I got tons o' canna with mine! :-) Starting a tropical garden this year. |
Thanks for the tip about the HD Garden Club. I didn't know there was one! They don't send you a lot of advertising, do they? I signed up with JoAnn for coupons and every week there is some ad, but only rarely a coupon! |

Marshfield didn't get any snow. Nice shot! Love the moose.
Nice touch!!
Thank you for the nice comments. It was just a fun idea that hit me when I read the rules of entry.
Excellent image. A bit of a stretch concerning the challenge criteria. Should be in a different challenge.
I like what you did with the depth of field. Nice touch.
This shot is one of the very best of this challenge. My compliments!
I also thought this was worthy of #1. Very well done!
Ellina: What a totally riged competition!
Although the winning photo is "nice" there is no way it deserves to be 1st.
Total lack of credibility for DPreview
That's a start. Competitions WITH A PRIZE need to be moderated by dpreview and vendor reps. These reps could be the cheat police. It's obvious who would have been removed from this challenge. How could any of us have any respect for these "photographers" after today?
Ellina: What a totally riged competition!
Although the winning photo is "nice" there is no way it deserves to be 1st.
Total lack of credibility for DPreview
This is a lack of credibility of certain photographers. Not DPreview. I appreciate the opportunity to show my work. I agree that this result was not aquired honorably. What's the solution? We all know the problems.
This challenge is making a mockery of this website. It shows a lack of respect for our craft. What are you thinking?
puneetvikramsingh: can i delete my entry???? i want to submit another photo :(
Would you please give a more complicated answer to a questions? ;-)
Anirudhbani: Are pictures protected here?Can people steal?
Thank You. You just made my day!!
Never saw a bird hang glide before! ;-)
You DID NOT deserve those low votes. I saw yours as the winner. This is a great shot, well done!!
Love this shot!
This image is outstanding!
Thank you for the nice words. There was some basic editing. It was a great sunset after a weather system had moved out earlier in the day.
Sharpening, Saturation and Cloned out two small distractions in the dark area.
The effect of the Sun against the grass jumped out at me at the time. It was hard to get the Sun behind the grass (wind). This was the only one that blocked it out.
No question that this was the winner. Congratulations!
jmgir: Great photo and congratulations.
Wish that voters wouldn't give 0.5 on such an entry that fits the theme of the Challenge, oh well same old same old stuff.
0.5 votes on many high quality images is just a show of ignorance and lack of character.
Congratulations! Well deserved.

World Leader Pretendby James Bernard Frost
ExcerptChapter One Book I: The Twins RL Time: June 20-26, 2000 Realm Time: YR 1 I sit at my table And wage war on myself It seems like it's all, it's all for nothing --r.e.m., "world leader pretend" 1. Have Patience. Xerxes Meticula is playing a game. The game he is playing is not a 2-person game; it is not chess or checkers or Connect Four, although it has a similarly complicated strategy; nor is the game he is playing a 4-person game, like bridge or poker, or a 6-person game, or even a game for 8. The game Xerxes Meticula is playing is a game being played simultaneously by 60,000 people, people representing hundreds of countries and all seven continents on the 3rd planet from the sun. It is a game unlike any other played by the human race in recorded history, unless you consider the act of waging war a game. The players of the game of which we are speaking are much more humble about their game. They see nothing particularly extraordinary about it. They have no perception of the man-hours, the acts of manipulation and persuasion, the mental energy, and the physical labor that it took for an entire species to string long strands of copper wire from one end of each continent to the other and then to hurl objects through their planet's atmosphere to connect these continents all so that they could play their game. These players, in fact, perceive themselves and are perceived by others as some sort of subclass, as losers. They do not have the respect of their peers. They are not presented with garlands or roses when they are victorious. These players--these players connected to each other by copper strands of varying widths, widths that, as they increase, increase the speed at which each player can play the game; widths which correspond in modern terminology to standard telephone wires, DSL lines, cable connections, T1's and T3's--as a group tend to be very dedicated to their game. They train for their game, do research, strategize. They play their game every day. They play for hours on end--2, 4, 8, 16, 24. They sneak out in the middle of the night, leaving their husbands, wives, children, or lovers alone in their beds. Xerxes Meticula, lying as he is in the bed of a bedroom whose walls are plastered with pictures that he long ago cut out of old Dungeons & Dragons guidebooks; pictures of what are called, by those familiar with fantasy novels and games, orcs; pictures of blue, bulky half-giants who rarely bother to clothe themselves; pictures of slobbering beasts with disfigured faces who carry maces and pole arms and are always threatening to kill; Xerxes Meticula knows, at this moment, as he stares at the screen of the laptop perched in front of him on his bed, exactly what he is getting himself into, but he is trying to forget, trying to forget that today is his 32nd birthday and that he has managed in one way or another to lose most of the things and people that he cares for. Unlike her brother, Gabriella Meticula is not interested in games. She is concerned only with the words of the cross-stitching that her mother has given her, the one which hangs over her bed on her bedroom wall, the one which reads: Lo, I am sending my messenger To prepare the way before me. Gabriella gets out of her single bed and makes her way to her bathroom mirror. She stares longer into the mirror than a normal person would, her arms dangling uselessly at her sides. She does not wash her hands or apply makeup. She does not brush her teeth or floss. She isn't even really looking into the mirror, but rather at some empty point in front of it. She doesn't do any of these things, because she is thinking, and thinking is more important to Gabriella Meticula than anything else. What Gabriella Meticula is thinking about is this: she and her brother are in grave danger. As the last of the Great American Dreamers, as the last of the Great American Thinkers, as the last of Those Who Will Rebel, as the Duke and Duchess of the Arizonan Desert, they are in exile. Fraternal twins born under the sun and moon of Gemini in any other day and age, in any place other than 21st century America, would have been treated with great respect: their births would have heralded years of tremendously fertile crops; they would have been considered soothsayers, prophets, or perhaps even royalty. They would have been protected. As it stands, here in 21st century America, royalty is disdained. A person like Gabriella who considers herself unique, different, gifted, or special, is labeled an egotist or worse. In 21st century America it is important to bury your talents, to not show too much intelligence or creativity or verve. The intelligent child is chastised by his peers, and oftentimes by his teachers, for being stuck up, for being too good for everyone. The creative child, the one who sits in the corner with her stack of blocks, who wants to build her towers in peace, is told to join the group, to share. The child with verve, the one that runs yelling and screaming in mad circles around the classroom, is dosed with Ritalin. In the eyes of 21st century America, Xerxes and Gabriella, a pair of twins with untold powers, have caused nothing but drought. Xerxes is a failed entrepreneur who, at the age of 32, returned from San Francisco to the house of his parents, returned after wasting billions of dollars of someone else's money, and Gabriella is not even that, she is nothing but an ex-high school valedictorian who was found one night by her friends at Mills wandering the streets of Oakland in a pair of pin-striped pajamas, wandering the streets at 3 a.m. looking up at the stars and conversing with them, telling the stars that she knew who she was, and that she was awaiting the message they would surely send. These friends who she thought were her friends but were obviously not, admitted her to a mental institution where she was wrongfully accused of being diseased, where she was wrongfully accused of being diseased and where she began a pharmaceutical imprisonment that she has yet to figure out how to escape. The people here, the people in America, they don't understand destiny. Gabriella reaches a hand to the mirror and pulls on it, revealing a small cabinet. She takes out four small amber plastic pill jars. She opens the childproof caps and places one pill from each jar into the palm of her hand. She thinks for a moment, no, today is my birthday, I can do without the pills. She places the pills back in their jars. It is 6 in the morning in Rest Stop, Arizona, where Xerxes is lying on his bed interfacing with his computer. Outside his bedroom, behind a window whose shades have not been drawn, whose shades, in fact, have not been drawn since Xerxes arrived here a few weeks ago, the sun is rising. It rises alone and unnoticed like a red Wham-O Frisbee unearthed by a dog in a suburban backyard. In his bed, Xerxes is wearing a chocolate brown T-shirt with the Cocoa Puffs bird printed on it; the word bubble above the bird reads: I'm cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. This is one of the three T-shirts that Xerxes has been wearing since he arrived here in Rest Stop, since he became an exile from San Francisco. His other shirts include a blue T-shirt with white block letters that reads Uncle Jeffrey, which he wears although he is not an uncle and his name is not Jeffrey, and a mustard yellow T-shirt with the outline of the state of Mississippi on it and the words We've Come This Far by Faith: The Barksfield/Lyon Reunion 1981, which he wears despite not being a Barksfield, a Lyon, a member of either extended family, nor religious. In addition to the T-shirt, Xerxes is wearing a pair of Chuck Taylor high-tops, a pair of shoes which he doesn't bother to remove before getting into bed and with which he has managed to track into his bed a good deal of sand. Next to his laptop on the bed is a yellow notepad filled with algebraic formulas scribbled wildly on its pages. On the screen in front of him are the following words: The Lords of the Realm have awarded you 200 acres of land and 250,000 gold coins to build your province. You have been assigned to Kingdom 12, Continent 5. The name you have chosen for your province is The Strangely Peaceful Citadel of Blue Orcs. The persona you have chosen is Lady Peace & Love but Mostly Love. Welcome to The Realm. Today is the first day of the new age. In the terminology of gamers, the game Xerxes plays is a browser-based, multiplayer, resource management, team fantasy game. This is not the type of game that most mothers of preteen males are familiar with. It does not involve the firing of virtual artillery or the amazing abilities of Barbie-shaped, sports bra-confined, virtual women. In other words, it is not a game that introduces military tactics and sexual desire to small children. It is, in fact, a game that the mothers of preteen males, were they to take the time to understand it, would fully approve of. It is a game of math, patience, imagination, and most importantly, partnership. The primary objective of the game is for the 20 players who are members of one's kingdom to attain a net worth that is greater than the net worths of the 3,000 other kingdoms involved in the game. Net worth is the sum of all of one's possessions. This includes the land that one has obtained through exploration or battle, the population of one's province, the soldiers that one has trained, and the gold that one has generated through one's internal economy, traded for, stolen from one's enemies, or looted during battle. One's net worth appears as a figure at the top of the screen. It changes every hour, every hour being considered a day in the time of The Realm. It is his net worth that Xerxes Meticula obsesses over, that he will stay up deep into the night calculating permutations of. Because today is only the first day, there is little Xerxes can do. He and the 60,000 other provinces are all under protection, that is, they cannot attack, steal from, trade with, or otherwise affect each other's provinces for 72 hours according to the bylaws of the Lords of The Realm. Xerxes consults a yellow notepad. He has written very neatly on the top, • 50% of your buildings are available after building the necessary housing, farms, wizard towers, and guilds. • Banks have no maximum and increase the wealth generated by your peasants by *1.5. • Armories have a maximum of 30%. They decrease your military costs by *2. In the early stages of the game you will spend approximately 50% of your wealth on your military. • Universities have a maximum of 20%. They decrease your science-related costs by *3. In the early stages of the game you will spend approximately 10% of your wealth on developing the sciences. • Once you go OOP your thieves will account for approximately 50% of your income. (This is theoretical. Thieving, of course, increases the chances of counter-attack. The gains, however, seem to outweigh the risks.) Banks do not increase wealth generated in this fashion. • Q: What percentage of banks/armories/universities is the most efficient? • A: Build 30% banks/20% armories until 500 acres. These numbers make no sense to you, but they make great sense to Xerxes. He plugs in his numbers. Xerxes thinks to himself: have patience; follow the rules. Xerxes logs out. The screen reads: Lady Peace & Love but Mostly Love, thank you for visiting The Realm. Remember, the Lords of The Realm appreciate your time away and will reward you with a bonus if you stay away for more than 24 hours. Xerxes needs the bonus that the Lords of the Realm will give him. He must find something else to do with his day. Copyright © 2007 by James Bernard Frost. All rights reserved.

"Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt" ~ Mark Twain
I bought a stripped lower when I saw the potential for another AWB, and I assumed it was going to be the "hard to find" item since it must go through an FFL. However everything AR is sold out right now. I expect sometime after June they will start to be taking orders again but it will depend on what happens with Congress and the Prez.
Yoda, I am, yes.
ammo and accessories...and perhaps a few more guns...
We have a nice new big store here, Shooter's Outpost, that's staying well stocked on ammo and handguns, and not raising prices on anything. They're smart to take this opportunity to build a loyal customer base while all the old farts are ripping off panic buyers. I've been buying 750 rounds of 9mm bulk remington at a time and they always have more. Not sure how they're keeping up, but I feel very lucky. I've stocked up on about 2500 rounds amd 5000 22lr altogether, and didnt have to clean them out doing it
This friday I'm heading to Bass pro to get a Beretta Neos U22. After that maybe a Smith Model 12, after that a 357.....we'll see.
I need a semi auto in 9mm or a Ruger LCR .357 magum or both.
I had 4 handguns stolen in a burglary and I currently have no carry piece. ( My avatar is one of the stolen pistols, sadly)
Stopped in my favourite LGS today and they were nearly cleaned out. Panic buying is still going on.

I received a nice gift card from my employees here at work for Christmas. I am thinking about getting a lcr .22 for my wife with it. Right now you can't even get to the gun counter to look.
Among other things, more popcorn...
There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware

5 Tips To Transform From Single Mom To Hot Mama
3. Feed the spirit. Create a calmness, balance and inner peace within yourself by finding you time. As a mom, you are constantly taking care of others. It's important to do things for yourself and allow others to take care of you for a change. Pamper yourself by getting your nails done, receiving a massage, taking a vacation or going to a yoga class. Maintain old friendships and cultivate new ones with other single women so that you have a social life outside of parenthood. Having a good social circle will allow more opportunities to do more things and increase your chances of meeting men. How Do I Pick The Perfect Online Dating Profile Picture?
4. Take care of your body. Uncover your body in different ways. Many times as a parent, you don't carve out time or have the energy to exercise. But exercise is a great way to re-focus your energy, lose weight and have that you time. Also, you sleep better and have more energy for your kids.
If you truly have difficulties finding the time to exercise, make it a part of other activities. Run around with your kids, walk with a friend to motivate you and schedule the same time in the day like you do with work/errands. Moreover, get sexy with your body and out of your head by taking a salsa class or pole dancing to regain your body confidence. Remember that 90% of communication is nonverbal, which is extremely important in capturing a man's eye. Men love women who are comfortable in their body and sexuality.
5. Get a great dating image. Your date clothes should look different than your mommy clothes. Overall, your dating image should be fun, youthful, sexy, flirty but still honors who you are. Really study and know your body type and what colors and styles look good on you. Clothes speak volumes as it tells men what kind of person you see yourself as (i.e. conventional, flamboyant, sexy, modest, trendy, traditional, etc.).
Make sure you look at your wardrobe and see if it makes the statement you want and what you want to attract. Always go out looking your best whether you are going to the grocery store or walking your dog. Dress so you feel attractive because you never know who you might meet. Finally, get rid of the flip flops and oversized mommy sweats, and instead dress feminine by wearing a pair of heels, a dress and soft, touchable hair. Dress The Part To Steal His Heart
Of course, getting back out there into the dating world as a single parent can feel overwhelming and exhausting. But try and have fun, enjoy receiving and think of it as an opportunity to find yourself again!

I got that all too talked about email from a "hearing impaired bride" who can only communicate through email, that wanted a quote for a cake, without ever seeing or tasting a thing I have made! So I gave her a crazy quote and she just emailed back, without batting an eye, that she would send me a check for the deposit and meet to sign a contract when she gets back into town. SUCH A LOAD OF CRAP! I told her "Sorry I only take Credit Cards!"
I just really chaps my hide that these criminals are trying to take of small business owners who are doing their best to make a living honestly. What are they trying to do anyway? Get free cake? They need to go to sweet tooth anonymous or something because they have a serious sugar addiction that needs to be addressed!

S.C. Soldier's Deployment Delayed When Home BurnsGREAT FALLS, S.C. (AP) — A Chester County soldier is not heading to Afghanistan after his home burned earlier this week. The Herald of Rock Hill reported (http://bit.ly/NGfUJJ) that Spc. Johnny Kelly of Great Falls was scheduled to leave Charlotte on Tuesday to deploy with the 178th Engineer Battalion. The flight for Kelly and four other soldiers was delayed a day, but before he could get home Tuesday, he got a call that his mobile home was burning. He was given permission by his sergeant and lieutenant to head home. His five children were with their grandmother when the fire started. The 33-year-old single father is now wondering what to do next to start over. Kelly says he does still want to go to Afghanistan with his unit when he can. ___ Information from: The Herald, http://www.heraldonline.com |
