OH MY!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM??? But its OK it will grow
yeah the hair ain't the best.
but look at those perfect gliming teeth, gorgeous mouth and excellent skin.
trust me....no matter what he does, he's way ahead of the game -genetically
I think either the hair gel sweated out, or he just forgot to put it in. His hair was already short on the sides like-- this looks like it's just not spiked.
I had a good laugh looking at this picture though. Thanks guys
*BTW, I became a slut and I didn't even realize it.
He is so camp... Someone please read him his "Carmen Miranda' rights...
He's naturally hot but that hair has to GO. Ricky go back to blonde or brown and just walk around in your speedo like in those beach pics with your "male friend." Atta boy.
Ricky who?
is he the old guy on idol who is trying to act young? i saw the once for like 5 minutes and that was enough to gag me
Aw come on now, give Ricky a break. He obviously just got his new Flobee hair cutting system in the mail and wanted to try it out. Apparently he didn't watch the included video first.
Cut the guy some slack- He's been in the public eye for 80% of his life and has always been impeccably groomed & coiffed (until now, anyway)......
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Actually, he probably ordered the "FloBee" but got the "Magic Bullet" instead.Originally Posted by Snickers52
"With the Magic Bullet can make your own fresh salsa in two seconds and then, with just a quick rinse of the blades, you can chop Icky Martin's hair in less then five. But that's not all, the Magic Bullet also makes muffins, guacamole, scrambled eggs, a baby's arm holding an apple, smoothies, food for old people, grated cheese...."
...and also grind coffee beans, make fettichini alfredo and
'gourmet' chicken salad from last night's BBQ.
You know, I can see myself using The Magic Bullet
everyday !
freakyboy03 this is getting very old & fast!! The mods should have the power on limiting so many senseless & useless post in a certain amount of time!

Ricky Martin Is Gorgeous
But I think his hair is getting better now
With shoe-polish and grease stains ?Originally Posted by thatcrap
Awww RICKY... Why?!
No, Ricky! Why'd you do it, huh? Why?
Oh my gosh! That's the horrid 'chilly-bowl' cut of 1996!
I'm actually FOR the mullet being brought back- SHOULD it be given the new-age CLEAN, stylish, hollywood treatment, but...The Chilly Bowl look definatly needs to STAY dead!
And JumboJimmy, you're right, if you scroll down just enough to NOT see the front bangs, in the face, with the facial hair, it does look a bit George Michael-ish.
Strangely, he reminds me on Axl Rose... (and not in a good way!)
i never found him attractive or hot its just ricky martin *jark*
ok its official he's gay!
okay, it's official...HE'S STRAIGHT! cause no gay guy would be caught with hair like THAT!! lol
Gawd Awful
I don't recall that being a trendy fad. Is he try starting a new one? Ew.
When I look at that picture of Ricky, the words "Moe, Larry, the cheese!" immediately come to mind.
You go gurl!! I mean chica. Is he going deaf as well as being follically challenged. He looks like he could swallow the Titanic with that big mouth
It's Martin Luther come back to haunt us as a latin popl icon
freddy mercury much?
ok. ricky is like totally sick...
It's an ear monitor -- all singers use them when they perform "live". Supposedly helps hear your own voice as well as stay on pitch and time with the backing music/band.Originally Posted by MauiGuy
was this ever even a real ? , its so obvious
When I first saw him yeah gay I'm not judging on him and should his respect
One hella HOT guy
is he still "single"?
He's gay??? Really? Who would've though
LIVERPOOL FC - You'll Never Walk Alone!
Very Very Gay
LOL, those are nick lachey pics.
I believe he is gay. but he is 'pulling a clay aiken' trick, (or should it be the otherway around) I guess it's the business. If you are celebrity and gay you are loosing lots of fans.
I can understand it. Especially these days in Dubyaland, in time when being gay is soooo sinfull. I just feel sorry for these singers/celebrities because i know it must be stressful for them.
RIcky is not gay he is just a good looking guy. He had a mexican girlfriend for many years i think that they lived together for sometime.
I really think that he is not gay!!!
What does it matter if he is gay or not??? Odds are and I'll take bets your not getting in his pants anytime soon. He's hot and nice to look at...other than that who cares.
And FYI...here you are drooling over Ricky Martin and your link is for pics of NicK Lachey. Need I say more.
oh sorry guys,its link change!!! But i think Ricky Martin is gay,lets see this picturehttp://malestars.sitecity.ru/album_3...9.phtml?pix=57!!! omg
Yeah, I think he is. He's also IMO one of the hottest guys I've seen...
I think, he is a gay.............
me too! NO word on his dating females from any of the multi-infotainment shows which would cover it ad nauseum
I, on the other hand, assume everyone (esp. the artistic celeb type) is BISEXUAL, until proven totally straight or totally gay.
Noteworthy Names DataBase ( http://www.nndb.com/ ) describes Ricky Martin's sexual orientation as a "Matter of Dispute" http://www.nndb.com/people/343/000025268/
(Also in their "sexual orientation: matter of dispute" club are Clay Aiken, Anderson Cooper, Tom Cruise, Michael Jackson, Richard Simmons, and John Travolta http://www.nndb.com/lists/243/000069036/ .)
I've heard it was either him or Enrique Inglasias(not sure how to spell) that was gay.
I was watching the Barbera Wlaters special tonight and Ricky confessed that he lost his virginity at 14y.o.
He said the experience " was not what i expected."
He did not specify if he lost i with a girl or guy.
Barbera also asked him is he was gay.
With str8 men, all you need is time.

Durga Navaratri, or the nine (nava-) nights (-ratri) of Durga, are celebrated in the first 9 days of the bright half of the month (starting from the day after Amavasya) of Aswayuja/Asvina in the Indian lunar calendar (usually in end of September or early October). This period of nine days (October 3rd – October 12th, 2013) is the beginning of the festival season in all parts of India as the period of Navratri concludes with Dasehra (or victory day or Vijaya-Dashami) on the tenth day of the festival (October 13th 2013). The nine-day festival honors the role of three prinicipal female Goddesses in the Hindu pantheon – Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswati.

Four ways to space out this week!
Saturday, January 24: Suburban Living
Band on the rise! Suburban Living is the project of Philadelphian Wesley Bunch, '80s pop enthusiast and suburban expat, who recently relocated to the City OBL from Virginia Beach, VA to further his musical and cultural exploration. And while he may not live in the suburbs anymore, he still crafts tunes influenced by suburban ennui and complacency; TV shows and Taco Bell. A project conceived some 3+ years back when Bunch found himself jobless and alone in Virginia Beach, with nothing but Twin Peaks for inspiration — Suburban Living splits the different between cheeseball '80s pop and gauzy dream pop, while at the same time effortlessly encapsulating feelings of restlessness and detachment. He's now readying the release of his debut, self-titled record (out January 27) and will play a celebratory show this weekend, alongside Night Panther's Mike Cammarata and Chris Radwanski plus We The They's Peter Pantina. Suburban Living never felt so good.

Xavier has promoted assistant Chris Mack to succeed Sean Miller as basketball coach.
The university said Tuesday there will be a news conference Wednesday .
Mack was the top assistant to Miller, who left last week to coach Arizona. He inherits a team that went 27-8 last season and reached the round of 16 in the NCAA tournament before losing to Pittsburgh.
Mack has no head coaching experience but close ties to Xavier. He played for the school and was a two-time captain before graduating in 1992.
He was director of basketball operations at the Jesuit school from 1999 to 2001. He spent three seasons as an assistant to Skip Prosser at Wake Forest before returning to Xavier as an assistant in 2004.

ConocoPhillips (COP) and Santos Ltd. (STO), developing separate liquefied natural gas projects in Australia at a cost of more than $40 billion, agreed to share pipelines and exchange gas to reduce costs and duplication.
The projects in Queensland state will build two pipeline connection points and sign gas-swap agreements, according to a joint statement today from Adelaide-based Santos and ConocoPhillips's partner, Sydney-based Origin Energy Ltd. (ORG)
ConocoPhillips and Origin are building a A$24.7 billion ($24 billion) project to liquefy natural gas for shipment to Asia, while Santos is developing an $18.5 billion development. Australia, forecast to become the world's largest supplier of LNG with seven projects under construction, is facing rising costs that threaten expansions.
Without the agreement, the projects would need 140 kilometers (87 miles) of additional pipelines and multiple connection points to send their gas to plants on Curtis Island for processing for export, according to the statement.
Both the Australia Pacific LNG project, led by ConocoPhillips and Origin, and the Gladstone LNG venture, operated by Santos, are due to begin exports in 2015. BG Group Plc is building a third LNG project in Queensland, and Arrow Energy Ltd., owned by Royal Dutch Shell Plc and PetroChina Co., is considering a fourth development.
Santos and BG's Australian unit, QGC Pty, reached an agreement in July to link pipelines on the Queensland mainland and on Curtis Island, where the plants that process coal-seam gas into LNG are based. Connecting the pipelines will allow the developments to buy, sell and swap gas at those points.

DHAKA – Preparing for the last round in Ramadan, a large number of Bangladeshi Muslims spend have started their annual i`tikaf in mosques throughout the country, amid hopes to meet Laylat Al-Qadr and gain the satisfaction of almighty Allah.
"Main aim of I`tikaf is to gain of Allah's forgiveness, final mercy and to find Laylat Al-Qadr by staying in the mosque during the last 10 days of Ramadan," Hafij Maulana Mizanur Rahman, Imam of Baitul Mukarram Mosque, the national mosque of Bangladesh, told OnIsam.net.
I`tikaf is Sunnah in Islam, but Bangladeshi Muslims believe that at least one person must perform i`tikaf in every mosque at every locality as confirmed Sunnah. Significance of I`tikaf
This belief and perception has motivated masses of Bangladeshis to perform i`tikaf estimated by around half a million Muslims in more than two hundred fifty thousand mosques in Bangladesh.
Imam Mizanur Rahman said that i`tikaf means stay in mosque, i`tikaf performer sacrifice their last 10 days of Ramadan for the sake of Allah.
He added that Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessing be upon him) had performed i`tikaf last 10 days of Ramadan in every year.
For those who perform i`tikaf, the annual worship has a great impact on their life and society by offering worshippers a better chance to study Qur'an and Hadith during the time they stay at the mosque.
"I have been performing i`tikaf over the last 24 years regularly since 1992 to gain the satisfaction of almighty Allah through worship in the last 10 days of Ramadan," AKM Rafiqul Islam Bhuiyan, a retired engineer, told OnIslam.net at Baitul Mukarram Mosque where he sits for i`tikaf on Monday in Dhaka.
"A minimum one person should perform i`tikaf at every mosque of every locality as a confirmed Sunnah," Monsur Miah, Ameer of Muradnagar Upazila branch of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami told this OnIslam.net.
He informed that if anybody doesn't agree to sit i`tikaf of any locality than they manage other Muslim from another locality to sit in their local mosque to perform for them as an obligatory responsibility.
In the system, all residents of the locality should manage his food and other facilities during his i`tikaf period.
New Experience
Some Bangladeshi Muslims choose to perform their first i`tikaf this year, tasting the high spiritualities of the last ten days of the holy month.
"This is my first i`tikaf and I get to the Baitul Mukarram mosque from Kishorgonj district, which 125 KM away from Dhaka, to performing the I`tikaf," ABM Khaled Ibn Masih, told OnIslam at Bitul Mukarram Mosque on Monday evening.
During i`tikaf time, Ibn Masih asserted that Islamic Foundation Bangladesh, a government organization, has arranged iftar and suhoor meals for all participants of i`tikaf in Baitul Mukarram mosque.
"Generally 1-2 person in village areas and 3-4 persons in town areas have to sit in I`tikaf during the last 10 days of Ramadan, so around half a million Muslims perform i`tikaf every year at two thousands and fifty hundred mosques in Bangladesh," Muhsin Ali, an Islamic activist of Khulna, a Southwestern district, told OnIslam.net.
I`tikaf is a spiritual retreat in the mosque where a Muslim secludes for the purpose of purifying his or her heart.
The ritual aims to get close to Allah by performing extra acts of worship, especially Tahajjud (optional night prayers) and reciting Qur'an.
Most Muslims perform I'tikaf during the holy month of Ramadan, spending the last 10 days of the month exclusively in the mosque.

whenever he gets angry or frustrated, he puts the back of his hand to his mouth and bites! He has little teeth marks all over his poor little hand. Not only that he keeps biting his sister whenever he does not get his way. Any input?

My Dd did (does) the same thing.. ( biting herself) the best thing is to ignore it..i have analyzed the situation and if you ignore the behavior,they stop it.there is nothing else to do-they will stop. When he bites his sister-say NO!! and put him in his high chair or crib--he will get the picture. he is showing very common behavior for his age..my dd was biting her little friends and i would let her know very clearly..We do not bite--and she will go away from her friends for this behavior.-then has to make nice. |
My DS is 17mo, and bangs his head for the same reason. The only thing I've found that helps is to reduce the frustration and prevent the situation from occurring. Easier said than done with toddlers, I know! |
Thanks for the posts! oh yes, he head butts and head bangs as well! I am sure once he stops these actions, new ones will appear! Take care |

Elected Officials
Library Advocacy
Friends for the Public Library
The Albuquerque Public Library Foundation
Updated: 2014-11-17
By Joe Sabatini and Olivia Baca
Library bond issues were successful statewide in the 2014
New Mexico General Election. State General Obligation Bond B, providing $10.8
million for public, academic, public school and tribal libraries passed by an
unofficial margin of 115,211 votes. With 280,177 yes votes and 164,966 no
votes, Bond B won with 62.9% in favor, 0.9 percentage points higher than
attained by library bond issue B in 2012. This progress was accomplished
through higher margins in all but ten counties, with the greatest margin gains
Bond B showed the second-highest level of support among the three
state bond issues; the $17 million senior citizen facilities bond (A) received 64.9%,
with library bond (B) at 62.9%. Bond C,
providing $141 million for higher education facilities, passed with a 59.8% yes
vote. These are unofficial totals, which will be updated when the State
Canvassing Board meets later this month.
In Bernalillo County, library bonds providing $1.8 million
to the Albuquerque Bernalillo County Library System passed by a vote of 114,683
yes to 40,313 no, a 74% margin. This margin exceeded the 2013 City of
The library
community was mobilized to support Bond B through the activities of the Bonds
for Libraries Special Interest Group (SIG). Under the chairmanship of Olivia
Baca, the SIG met periodically to promote the legislation, raise funds, prepare
and distribute campaign materials and place advertising. The SIG used a variety of media to promote
passage of Bond B to both library allies and voters who may not use libraries.
The SIG website, bondsforlibraires.org, provided updates on the status of the
legislation and outreach projects. A
radio spot ran on KMGA and KANW leading up to Election Day, in September and
October 2014. Other outreach efforts
included bookmarks, window clings, buttons and "shelfies", photos
of library supporters taken with a library card or library book. The photos were distributed through social
media, including Facebook and Twitter. A
display ad was also placed on the state's leading political blog,
"New Mexico Politics with Joe Monahan.". Bond B was endorsed by the
Albuquerque Journal and other newspapers around the state. Our increased level
of support in a generally conservative and low turnout election demonstrates
City Funding
The city funding cycle will begin in the fall of 2014. Check here for information about how you can help later this year.
State Funding
This year's state bond proposals include funding for ABC Library projects and materials. Governor Martinez is considering the proposal. Please consider contacting her office at http://www.governor.state.nm.us/Contact_the_Governor.aspx to indicate your support for library funding.
Thank you for supporting our libraries!

More Light Rail for Houston, TX
We support a bigger budget to be directed towards light rail construction and maintenance for the purpose of reducing traffic gridlock, conserving precious non-renewable resources, helping the environment, and enhancing a sense of local community. More money needs to be spent on light rail in Houston. Funds from the Metro budget should not be diverted into "street improvements."

The new Thai Airways International chief hopes to bring back glory for the flag carrier by the time he walks away from the position.
"I want to bring back glory to THAI to make it an airline everybody will be proud of,'' Sorajak Kasemsuvan said on Wednesday in an exclusive interview with the Bangkok Post.
Mr Sorajak admitted there are problems plaguing the airline -- including complaints about seats, food and other services -- but said it will all be tackled in his tenure in his efforts to keep THAI competitive with its rivals.

I planted a whole bunch of redpepper seeds in multiple containers. Some of those containers were from cut up juice boxes. One of them, just one of four planted in a juice box is growing at the same rate but there is this brown powdery substance on the surface of the soil. I thought maybe it was residue from the iced tea in the box so i cleaned it out and replaced the soil and replanted in the same box. A few days later the brown stuff is there again. It sort of looks like powdered ice tea and when I water the plant some of the brown powder floats up into the air. |
Follow-Up Postings:
What was your planting medium made of? I sometimes have seen, in containers where a peat moss based planting medium was used, a similar powdery brown substance would float to the surface. |
- Posted by ken_adrian z5 (My Page) on Thu, Oct 18, 12 at 8:57
next time.. go buy some small plastic cups.. solo cups ... cut 3 holes in the bottom edge with a razor blade .. and use those ... rather than wax paper boxes ... there is no way to sterilize such ... and we need to know your media ... a very high peat media.. will probably lead to failure ... its probably ground peat.. not iced tea.. once added to water.. dry ice tea will not turn back to powder ... since there is no freeze drying going on ... and did you really mean that watering makes it float in the AIR??? ken |
The soil is mostly peat (afaik) and some "quick grow" stuff as well. I get soil in 1 or 2L plastic packs here in Hong Kong and most of the info is in Chinese. I just now took a quick look and noticed some brown, disk shaped things growing on the surface. @ken - Yeah, when i spray it with water, it disturbs the powdery stuff and it blows out into the air. |
- Posted by purpleinopp 8b AL (My Page) on Wed, Oct 24, 12 at 11:49
That soil sounds like it's comprised of too many fine particles, dust. I would try to find something more chunky, less hydrophobic than peat. |
- Posted by toxcrusadr 5 (My Page) on Fri, Oct 26, 12 at 17:17
Or, there is some type of fungus growing in the medium, which is either a powdery type or gives off powdery spores. It is not necessarily harmful if the plant seems to grow OK. In fact, many fungi have been proven to enhance the growth of various plants when grown together. So I wouldn't worry about it unless the plant seems to be damaged. |
- Posted by purpleinopp 8b AL (My Page) on Sat, Oct 27, 12 at 9:52
Agreed. But the cultural conditions that allow fungus to grow are often not good for plant roots. |

text: University Explains Higher One Partnership Posted by: Frank Garza April 13, 2014 Leave a comment Two years ago, Texas A&M University-Kingsville (TAMUK) was going to enter a partnership with Higher One, a company that provides students with a different way to manage their money. After considering student input, TAMUK decided against it until further deliberation had been made. TAMUK has now announced that they will be partnering with Higher One beginning in Summer 2014. Starting May 28, funds received from TAMUK (grants, loans and scholarships) will be processed through HigherOne. However, students on university payroll will still receive that money on their current direct deposit method said Mari Ybanez, Business Technical Coordinator of TAMUK. "They still have a choice. They can use the Higher One card and that's a choice. But they can still choose to deposit it to their bank account, or they can choose a paper check," said Lallah Howard, Comptroller and Associate Vice President for Finance of TAMUK. To make this choice, however, students will still need to activate their Higher One cards first, but they will have to wait two to three business days for their money if they choose to deposit it directly to their personal bank account or five to seven business days if they choose a paper check. "Originally, when schools started going with Higher One, students were forced to transfer their money onto their cards. When we signed up with (Higher One) two years ago, with the agreement that the A&M system had with Higher One, they said… we're not going to have the money deposited into the accounts for (the students) and force that on (them)," Ybanez said. Because it is the student's choice, it is essential that they go online and update their information, Ramirez said. This way, there won't be a delay in the refund process because the card gets lost in the mail. A card and a packet will be mailed to each student. The information on the card is necessary in order for the student to let the university know of their preference, Howard said. If students choose to use their My One card, they will need to be aware of certain fees associated with the card, including a $ 0.50 PIN-based transaction, a $2.50 charge for using a non-Higher One ATM and a $25 stop payment fee. Though the specifics of TAMUK's agreement are still not released, Higher One provides a general fee schedule that students can look at for more information: https://www.higheroneaccount.com/info/outfees.jsp. "We will certainly make sure students know that there could be fees attached to the use of the Higher One card," Howard said. The My One card is not a credit card. If a student decides to open an account with HigherOne, it becomes a debit card attached to a bank account. Through HRConnect, they can then create a new direct deposit method with their new account and routing numbers, Ybanez said. Ybanez said there is a marketing campaign in the works. TAMUK will be using multiple venues to raise awareness about the change, including through Marketing and Communications, Facebook, Twitter, student e-mails, The South Texan and the university website. Tables will also be set up in the Student Union Building, the Jernigan library, the dining halls and the dorms. The business office staff is being trained to handle queries regarding the My One cards, Ybanez added. "We're training our staff to be able to answer these questions so if we have a student coming up and asking specific questions, everyone needs to know the same amount I huge when http://prestoncustoms.com/liya/canadian-online-pharmacy.html since comfortable same over the counter inhaler the buy have "visit site" prestoncustoms.com use PCA.

CONTEST TIME! This is the fabulous pink seedling that Sharon gave me blooming today. I call it Sharon, but what else would YOU name it? ~marea |
- Posted by toomanyanimals 5b/MI (My Page) on Mon, Aug 11, 08 at 17:40
Please, please rename it!!!!!! Don't let her call it 'Sharon' anymore!!! My choice is 'Pink Primer' I'm loving all the pictures! |
What beautiful pictures! I haven't been here in so long. Lovely DL's......and squirrels, and frogs! And Mary S & Karen.....just beautiful! I love the color for the dump truck Marea! Be sure to let us see it when you are all done. I have the pictures of the beautiful quilts to post, but my Kodak program is "stuck". Grrrr! I finally get a free second and everything is working against me. I'm sorry......i'll get them on as soon as I can figure out the problem. Marea, i've got just the name....... 'Pukana La Sharon' : ) I think it's perfect. But I like 'Pink Primer' too. I'll be back with pics! ~Dawn (mamabirrd) |
Dawn, I used the royal "we" - my DH is the airbrush artist, not me. Here is a view of the color of the finished truck against the sky, trying to show you all the rainbow sparkles in the color: ~m' |

Awwwwe Deb, baby Gunner is adorable! I'm so excited for you! I sure hope you live close to them. You'll want lots of Grandma time in *he he*! I stand by my statement, lol. Julie is my only biological child and I love her with all my heart but McKenzie owns my heart, its just that simple. I don't have the words to express it, maybe someone else will, but when I saw that sweet little angel born it was the most awesome experience of my life and I thank Julie for it:) Listen, I've worried everyone to death with pics of Kenzie, but no one minds, friends are always happy for friends and girl I'm so proud for you that you'll be telling us very soon the answer to your own question:)) You love him and keep us updated with pics please, babies are a blessing and I always want to see them.

Debbie, Baby Gunner is adorable. May I get a quick hugger? Marie, the daylilies are gorgeous! The truck is fabulous! I love the sparkle it has. Your DH did a wonderful job. Dawn, I can't believe Dalton has gotten so big and he's just a little cutie. Mary, I'd love to have beautiful gardens such as yours. I haven't been able to work in mine at all this year but it's struggling along among the weeds. Better go to bed now so nighty-night. Nancy |

Debbie, A Beautiful Grandbaby! Gunner must be a delight to the whole family. Dawn, TJ is just the sweetest ... I love that he loves pipes LOL. Just a few pics from our Washington State Vacation in August. We spent 2 days at Ocean Shores, it never got up to 60 degrees. We found a ton of sand dollars on the shore, we kept only the dead ones. Meg and Rob had to ride the horses on the beach. Next we stopped at the Hoh Rain Forest. Yes, a real rainforest. It was like being in National Geographic. Sorry, no good pictures of that. The next 3 pictures are at the Pacific Ocean section of the Olympic National Park. Really a sight to see. Rob, John, Meg in the background This is called 'The Hole in the Wall'. We walked through the hole. They tell you to make sure you are back through the hole before the tide comes in .... well, we timed it wrong and you can guess. We got caught on the wrong side of the 'Hole'. But luckily, there is a STEEP path up a hill to get past this point. We huffed and puffed and made it to the other side. One of the places we went to was the Hot Springs in the Olympic Nat. Park. We 'cheaped' out and went to the ones that don't cost money. Don't ever go, yes, they are hot, but they are only about 2 ft deep and mucky and rocky on the bottom. Not worth the effort. Have any of you heard of the 'Twilight Series' of Books ... if not, well, they are big with the teens. The books are based in Forks,WA, which we unknowingly stayed. It is supposed to have the most overcast days in the 48 states. Well, it lived up to this description. We stayed here 3 nights/4 days, not one peek of sunshine!!! Meg, just had to pose at the high school sign. We took a Ferry over the Puget Sound to Seattle. I knew you would want to see a picture of me. So here it is, I'm with my son and my nephew. We went to another nephew's wedding in Seattle on the water. It rained of course, so they had to have the wedding in the resturant. It was beautiful all the same, you could see the water through the windows. Also, on our last day we went to Mt. Rainier, but the clouds were so low, we couldn't see anything ... really! |

Thanks for letting us go too. Spending Labor Day collecting daylily seeds & doing chores.

Ohhh, Marea, that first daylily is gorgeous!!! I have just a couple I wanted to post this year: Clump of Linda Daniels - too purple in the picture, it is more of a salmon color. My Tall Blue eyed seedling ... again. I love this one! A new seedling that bloomed this year ... not too exciting, but had an interesting combo of colors, not really apparent in the picture .... of course. It is peachy pink with a small gold edge and a bluish eye. I crossed it with one of the blue daylilies, since it has a slightly blue eye. sharon |

The thrill for the week was picking up to peoney trees for 30 bucks.They were sitting on a table marked 50% off.Well I couldn't pass that up,so I picked one up.Then set off to see what else might be on sell.Well then I thought what the heck there was two ya know.hehe So back I went.Couldn't let its bubby be left behind..hehe.

Debbie - Grunner is adorable! Jean - it's blue and underline because it thinks it's a link. Links are automatically blue & underlined. Carol - the puppies are adoroable! Sharon, that vacation looks so inviting. Next time I'll need to go too! ;) Marea - what's the purple daylily??? I neeed to have that one! Dawn oh my gosh - what a cutie!!! Here's some pics of my DD on her first day of first grade. I'm pretty happy that I was able to show how beautiful she is. Here's a pic of the creek running through my property although this is not a spot on my property, it's downstream a bit. DH found an antique seller with an old sign for my creek. I just HAD to have it. How often do you find that? The real mystery is whether the name of the creek is Wickechoeke or Wickecheoke. State documents show the 2nd way and any old signs seem to point to the first way. Since my farm is named Wickechoeke Creek Farm I really need to figure out a way to do this. Finally.. here is the newest addition to our farm. I named her Petunia. She is adorable and has to be bottlefed. Gosh I wish she could be house trained. I love having her around. |

Gunner just keeps getting cuter ... didn't think it was possible! Jean, the golden datura is beautiful! Thanks for the picture. Gloria - Do I SOUND BLOND in my Emails?

I love everyone's pics! I hope to get another camera eventually and share pics some day! But until then will enjoy everyone else's and be green with envy! Did you ever name the daylily? Sharon's Sunshine is pretty name for it. Looks like beautiful sunshine with the yellow in the pink. Keep the pics coming. Melinda |

This is a picture of the teriffic swap box I got from Shirley today. Everything is listed individually on our other thread if you want to check it out. Thanks Shirley...you are fantastic. Debbie |
Couple of shots this morning. This plumeria is called Abigail. Here's Canna Cleopatra in all her splendor. I thought this was a dwarf, but mine's 5 feet tall... |
Gorgeous tropicals, Paul! Cleopatra is one of the few cannas that flourished here even though it froze solid for a week last Winter. I also have Black Jack (purple leaved selection of Australia, tall) and Sugar & Spice (green leaved dwarf Harris CV) if you'd like those? I really like your cut stone wall, too. I'd LOVE to see more of your garden... "Strengthen the things that remain.." as that old Dylan song says. I have many of my favorite photos on photobucket, so no need to feel sorry for me anymore! Remember when we all bought those great dollar daylilies from Rainbow Hill Farm? I got 'Fruit Loops' & I SURE am glad I did! Here's a photo of it this Summer, along with my beloved red violet 'Abba' ~ |

I so love all the interesting pics here. We are a diverse bunch! I found an interesting garden site you might already have heard of. I don't care for the politics of a couple of the gals but the blogs are pretty good overall and the links send me in interesting directions. I'm thinking this is a good find especially when it's too cold to garden this winter. I'm thinking it might be better to start pics albums in picasa. Is it any easier or better in your opinion than photobucket? I'm also pondering about using the gmail acct more as the pics and all never have to be downsized or email deleted. That might prove handy if the pics don't get burned on a disk before a computer crash.... BTW I did a burn of my whole photo storage after Maria's deal. Smiles from me to you! Well here's the blooms for Sept so far. |
Here is a link that might be useful: sept blooms here in zone 5

This is good for a laugh. I got some fancy alocasia from FL this spring to see if they could grow faster than Walmart's Odora. Ready SET--GO! Now the center odora was a bit bigger to start with so it wasn't quite even steven- but look close far left up front and hardly visible Borneo-Mac-not sure if leaf size changed all summer and by my shoe Borneo Giant, (well apparently only in his own mind!) ok- well that was my experiment. You can go to the album (link) to see the starting sizes if you want. We are at the end of the season. Last year we had a light frost a week from now. So this is the result of the size race here in zone 5. Maybe if I give them all a few more years and if they survive our very long winters...in the basement.... As far as if it was better North side or south side Karen/cheerpeople |

Karen-Love your photo albums...nice job. What are the plants called flapjacks I love it? Every year I grew hyacinth bean vines but lost my last seeds that I harvested. I had the purple and the white. I have several different kinds of croscomia but not the Fire King. How tall does it get? Several of us from Daves Garden ordered some in a co-op from England but we got caught and lost our money. We knew it was iffy but sure did want some of those varities. The member who got the co-op up got a visit from customs authorities. Shirley |

I just starting to do something like that using audacity (with
mic input from mouth, hand or flute beats) and really wishing
for a foot switch. I guess there might be someway to do it via
a midi foot controller??? but I'm not in the mood to get any more
new technology right now. So I'll probably switch to rezound and
use its "wait for the audio signal" to start recording feature.
Know of any other "hands free" tricks I could try?
Also can you explain what you mean by "professional player" and
"transcribe" above? ie player is person or machine, and transcribe
is to written chart or audio track?

I know exactly what you mean. I play better than I read. And I
often have no idea what "I did" after an improv when playing with
our group. We're now recording some of our sessions and I'm
recording some my practice time. It's help my understanding
quite a bit. (and that's helping my reading.)

Waka Flocka Flame Graces XXL's June 2012 Cover
Hip-Hop Superstar Waka Flocka Flame covers XXL
Hip-Hop superstar Waka Flocka Flame rocks the next cover of XXL Magazine. In the cover story, the Queens-born, down-south representer discusses his meteoric rise, rumored beef with Gucci Mane and what it's like to live with Nicki Minaj.
Here are his highlighted quotes:
-"I don't feel like a celebrity, or this quote-unquote star everybody talk about. I guess Waka Flocka like a job, honestly. I'm at my job right now, so I gotta do it to my fullest.
-"I got a whole label, man. We fire. We the new Wu-Tang, Roc-A-Fella. We what these labels are trying to create right now. We the new Cash Money. Squad! Flockaveli was the return of gangsta. I brought gangsta back, man.â€
-"I'm a hipster in my own sense. My little brother's a hipster a little. Like, he's a real fuckin' hipster. Like, a rock-star hipster, so I fuck with 'em. U grew up fuckin' with 'em. So it don't matter. I'm with that. I smoke harder than them no mater what. I'm a "Flockster.â€

WCW January 2015
In This Issue
USF Sarasota/Manatee (USFSM) has a new Chancellor and her name is Dr. Sandra Stone. While her story is unique, she was not the first woman in that job. Dr. Lori Stryker was USFSM's Chancellor when the campus literally came out of the ground in 2006 and, naturally, we profiled her. USFSM was actually founded in 1975, but kept a low profile here and shared space with New College. Dr. Stryker was its first female CEO, however.
Over the years, after leaving the safe confines of New College where USFSM operated for two decades, USFSM has grown so much that it now offers over 40 bachelor's degree, master's degree and certificate programs in four colleges: Arts & Sciences, Business, Education, and Hospitality and Technology Leadership. Day, evening, weekend and online classes serve more than 4,500 students annually, according to their web site.

I've only gone and done it!.. POR here we come..
Hi all,
I can't believe how excited i am and I still have just under a year to go. We've stayed at CBR and ASM (movies)in the past but I've booked my family and I (Two girls 9 and 7 and of course the boss...) into the POR for May 2014. From the reviews I've read, I think we are going to like it. We've never had Disney dining plan before, but have the entry level this time. I'm a little upset that we have paid for a waterview room, thinking this is a preferred room but turns out not to be. I booked with travelcity (low cost Virgin agent). They have advised that the phrase "waterview" will soon become "poolview". Is there anyway to get a preferred room booked ahead of our visit? Anyway.. super excited. The children do not know about this and we aren't telling them until a few days before we go.. |
Surprise trips are the best...my parents didn't tell me until the night before once! To change your reservation the best thing to do is to call Disney directly
1-407-WDISNEY...Happy planning! |
Awesome....surprise trips are the best! :)
You can request a specific building or even room, before you arrive for you trip, check out the POR main thread here. If you can get your reservation number from your travel agent, you can also call Disney and upgrade to a preferred room if one is available. |
Is there any way possible to cancel your reservation with the third party and start fresh with a Disney rep... provided the cost is comparable? |
You will love POR!
Go to portorleans.org and click on the maps. "Water view" is the same as "pool view." There are rooms that are "river view,' but that is not what you have booked. The pool view rooms all overlook the quiet pools. Check out the maps and know where they are. Some are pretty close to the main building, but some are in the most remote locations. If you are driving, the more remote locations might work for you, because they're near parking. I don't know how you can add room requests to your reservation through travelocity, but read up in the POR thread for info if you'd like to fax a request close to your trip dates. Even if you are in the further out locations, you will be close to a pool and bus stop. It's such a lovely place to walk around. Keep your eyes out for the river otters! My kids were so thrilled to see them. |
I don't know if I am using the correct terms, but Travelcity owns your reservation so that is why Disney Travel could not help you. Pool/waterviews are not automatically preferred rooms. Preferred means your room is closer to the food court and bus stops, not a view classification. Preferred rooms cost more. The 2014 packages/rates are not out yet. So you could end up paying more booking with Travelcity. I would keep an eye out for the 2014 rates and number crunch.
We had a waterview room and it was in the Mansion section (acadian house) It was very nice and very convenient. You will likely be close to the quiet pools if you have waterview or the first side room that can see the river, but not be riverfront.

what is the proper way to scale an SDL Surface? I found one explanation online but it required redrawing the Surface pixel by pixel. It seems like there should be some way of doing this natively through SDL rather than redrawing the image like that. I haven't been able to find anything in the SDL documentation that covers this. I am able to resize surfaces without any problem by modifying the surfaces width and height, but the resulting surface is clipped. Thanks for any help!
Take the 2-minute tour
Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
SDL doesn't support scaled blitting. According to the documentation of SDL_BlitSurface: You could find SDL_gfx here. Writing your own blitting function isn't that bad, it might be a fun and useful learning experiment (though you'd be reinventing the wheel). Using OpenGL is also an option, as stuff like scaling and rotating could be done in a single function call. |

Almagro Tops Ramos, Reaches Sao Paulo Final
Sao Paulo, Brazil
by ATP Staff
Defending champion Nicolas Almagro defeated eighth seed Albert Ramos 6-4, 7-6(4) Saturday in Sao Paulo to reach his third Brasil Open 2012 final.
The top-seeded Almagro won 77 per cent of his service points, but converted just two of his eight break point chances. He clinched the semi-final victory on his second match point, improving to an 18-4 record at the ATP World Tour 250 event.
Almagro is looking to win his 11th ATP World Tour title, with all of his previous triumphs coming on clay. He is a two-time event titlist, having lifted the trophy in 2011 and 2008.

The World No. 11 will play Filippo Volandri in Sunday's final. The 69th-ranked Volandri topped No. 4 seed Thomaz Bellucci 5-7, 6-0, 6-2 in two hours and 33 minutes.
After losing the first set, Volandri broke the home favourite six times, and did not face a break point in the second and third sets to advance to his first ATP World Tour final in over five years.
Volandri will attempt to end a title drought dating back to his title victory in Palmero in 2006. He holds a 2-6 final record.

Computer will not wake from sleep, hard boot only solution
I'm new to sevenforums and would appreciate the help of some of you. I have updated my user profile with all of the details and specs of my system that is having my issue.
Recently, my computer will not wake up from sleep mode. Once it enters sleep mode, the only way to get it functioning again is to hold the power button, completely shut it off, and then boot my system back up. It appears as if everything starts back up once I open the lid or press the power button to wake it up, but the screen never turns back on. The fan starts up, the backlit keyboard lights up, the leds all blink, but nothing I try will turn the screen back on forcing me to press and hold the power button for a complete shut down. I have reinstalled the latest Intel HD Graphics driver as well as the latest NVIDIA graphics driver (both the stable and beta release). I do not get a blue screen or any sort of error. Upon the restart, I am not prompted with any error from windows or any signs of the forced shut down. I have been messing with this issue for a few days now and am asking for some help from the community here at sevenforums. If you need any additional info let me know. Thanks. |

A cornerstone of the civil rights movement, the Voting Rights Act ensures that every American citizen, regardless of race or language, has equal access to the vote. That is until last June, when the U.S. Supreme Court gutted a key part of the act, leading to a full-frontal attack on the voting rights of all Americans.
In "The Stupid Party? Which One?" I looked into the worrisome issue of the Republican Party being hijacked by anti-science Luddites. But what about the House of Representatives? So I spent a day putting together a spreadsheet on the 435 members of the House in the 113th Congress, their backgrounds, and how they have voted on a few important (to me!) science bills.
The historic participation of blacks and other minorities helped elect the first black president of the United States. But while we greatly exercised our right to vote in 2008, many failed to do the same two years later during the 2010 midterms. What we got were a slew of politicians who are more concerned with their own self-aggrandizement than with serving people.

While technology and the viral nature of social media has made it possible to launch a startup with a global reach from day one, the funding to enable those startups still comes a lot closer to home. According to the latest Halo Report (Q1 2014) on angel investing, three out of every four angel deals are between an investor and company in the same state -- and the average size of those deals ($1.23M) is on the rise. That is good news for entrepreneurs in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin – who are seeing an increasing amount of deals and dollars lately.
Despite reason for concern with the Q3 2013 numbers on angel investing, the total figures for 2013 as a whole show that angel activity is on the rise with more high-valuation deals closed in 2013 than the previous year. They also show a continued trend toward investment in technology that mirrors a jump in venture capital dollars in the sector.
The Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship brings to light various policies and initiatives to advance innovation and drive economic growth.
