There was something about Taken that audiences just responded to. I don't know what it was, but I felt it too. For some reason we were all just ready to see Liam Neeson go completely badass and mess some people up. The guy may be in his 50s, but when he told those guys that he had the set of skills necessary to take them out in that trailer, we all believed it. So I went to see the thing, and I sat there, not expecting much, yet inexplicably drawn to the film. For the first 30 minutes I was pretty bored and upset that I had been sucked in by the ad campaign. And then his daughter got taken, and for the rest of the runtime the movie was pure, brutal ass-kickery. And I'm not talking about the flippy, dancy, show-off type ass kicking that we get in most movies these days. Liam Neeson was a bone breaking, tooth and nail, creepy psycho. It was very satisfying to watch, and the movie ended up making a ton of money. So, guess what, bad news for Liam Neeson… somebody in his life is going to be taken again! Can you believe it? Or maybe there will be a twist and this time Neeson will be the one who gets taken. Either way, Taken 2 is looking like it's going to happen. Neeson seems to be on board, Luc Besson is going to write again, and they've found a director. This […]

Dealing With Awkward Money Issues
Which Money Issue Is Most Awkward?
5 years
I think being asked to go in on group gifts is the worst. I know how much I can (or, more usually, can't) afford to spend, and I hate being pressured into forking over money for something I probably wouldn't have picked out because someone else thinks group gifts are "fun."
5 years
As for me, it's a toss up between questions about personal finances and lending money. With personal finances, I consider that a private matter between my husband and I. No one else has a seat at the table. The only exceptions I would make is for the two closest people in my life. Ironically, in the last +10 years of my life, these two people NEVER asked me about my personal finances.
With lending money, I generally don't do it, as I was usually asked for a loan for a non-essential item (such as for a luxury SUV when that person already has a car that was under five years old). I decline to lend that person money even though I had the funds. The asking loan was in the thousands of range.
5 years
The VP of my company once gave me a fundraising letter for his son's charity trip...I wanted to point out that he KNOW's what I make...weird.
Other than that, my family. I've started crying poverty (even when it's not true:) to avoid them asking me for loans (in the range of thousands of dollars), or my brother asking me to cover his mortgage for a month and to not pay me back for a couple of months...I've been the "Bank of Jillian" since I was a child, and I'm DONE!
5 years
The most awkward is when I went to one evangelist church. The pastor said to lift money and to bless it then give it to the pastor. I'm catholic and that was very different. To make matter worse the pastor and better benz than I did and had a 8 thousand dollar rolex on and it was real. I should of advised people to maybe find another place to worship God. To me, I thought that was really awkward. I don't think money and religion should be mixed or that we should ever pray for money. I guess that's me. I don't lend money either as for some reason people do not ask me for 5 to 10 dollars. They have the nerve to ask for $5000 to $1,000 or ask if my parents can sponsor them for a trip or something. Yes, those are the friends I write off the minute that happens. ;-)
5 years
I lend money to my neighbor sometimes. She's not very financially well-off and sometimes she needs 5-10 dollars every now and then between paychecks. I don't mind lending her money because she always repays me, but I never lend more than I'd feel comfortable giving away. I've always been taught that you should look at lending money to friends as though it were a gift and not expect to be repaid.

No Movement At Capitol On Minimum Wage Increase
Thursday, March 6, 2014
(St. Paul, MN) -- There is no agreement yet among DFL leaders in the Minnesota House and Senate on increasing the state's minimum wage. The sticking point is whether or not to make future increases in the wage automatic and tied to inflation. The House wants to include that, while Senate leaders call it a "non-starter." Supporters of the increase want to hike the wage to nine-dollars-50-cents an hour by 2016.

Carietta N. "Carrie" White is a title character and the protagonist of Stephen King's novel Carrie.
In every adaptation and portrayal of Carrie, she is portrayed as an outcast, loathed and taunted by her fellow students and constantly scolded by her mother, Margaret White, an abusive, mentally ill and unstable religious fanatic. At the age of seventeen, she has her first menstrual period in the showers at school, and is harassed by the other girls who throw pads and tampons at her. In a fit of blind rage after being humiliated in front of the school during the prom, Carrie triggers her exceptionally strong telekinetic abilities and ruthlessly massacres her classmates. Carrie moves things with her mind and apologizes.
Carrie White was born on September 21, 1956 or 1957. She is blonde-haired, full-figured, has acne, and is considered unattractive, though she is described as having been very pretty as a little girl. Her clothing is old and puritanical, because her mother will not allow her to buy clothes similar to other girls her age, believing them to be too provocative. Carrie is shy, lonely and isolated; the closest thing she has to a friend at school is fellow student Sue Snell, who pities more than likes her. Carrie does, however, show signs of rebelling against her mother's religious fanaticism. Her mother throws her into a "prayer closet" whenever she misbehaves, but by high school Carrie has begun smuggling teen magazines there and reads them in secret. Later in the novel, she undergoes a profound transformation, both physically and psychologically.
Carrie's incredibly strong telekinetic abilities are present throughout her life, usually evident in childhood incidents. She had closed a window and had dangled her own bottle above her crib when she was a baby. When she was three years old, she witnessed her teenage next-door neighbor sunbathing and asked about her breasts. Her mother physically abused Carrie for asking about such a matter. While she was inside, Carrie brought forth a hail of ice that smashed the bungalow. The chunks of ice were followed by a shower of rocks that plummeted onto the property, damaging it heavily while a table was almost sent toppling through the window.
In 1979, at the age of seventeen, Carrie has her first menstrual period in the shower of the school gym after a physical education class. Due to her mother's bizarre religious beliefs, she did not even know what a period was, and believes she is bleeding to death. The other girls in the locker room, led by Chris Hargensen and Sue, taunt her mercilessly, and the humiliation brings out her telekinetic abilities. Now aware of just how different she is from other girls her age, Carrie begins to practice and harness her telekinetic strength and energy, unaware that using her powers puts a high level of stress on her body. Sue starts to feel somewhat guilty about her treatment of Carrie, realizing that she's innocent about a lot of things considering her age, and talks her boyfriend, Tommy Ross, into asking Carrie to the prom. He balks at first, but does it to please Sue. When Tommy asks her to the prom, she eventually says yes, nervous but happy. Her mother attempts to stop Carrie from going, but Carrie insists on trying to fit in and stands up to her for the first time in her life. A talented seamstress, she makes her own dress, and is described as being beautiful as Tommy Ross escorts her to the prom.
At the dance, she gradually comes out of her shell, and even makes jokes while she converses with other promgoers. As she is accepted by the crowd, she begins to enjoy herself for once. Carrie and Tommy are even elected the prom's king and queen after Tina Blake and Norma Watson slip fake ballots into the voting box at the request of Chris. As she ascends the stage to take her crown, however, Chris dumps pig's blood all over her as revenge for being banned from the prom. Carrie runs out of the gym as everyone begins laughing at her. After falling onto the wet lawn outside, Carrie's mind snaps, and she ultimately uses her powers to destroy the school, killing dozens of her fellow students. Walking home, she cuts a huge swath of destruction and death through the town. She stops to pray at a cathedral, all the while manipulating a series of power lines outside, killing several civilians. Sue rushes to the school and watches it explode, which destroys a portion of the town. Carrie then returns home, intending to kill her mother.
When she enters the house, her mother is waiting for her. After telling Carrie the truth about her conception, Margaret stabs her with a butcher knife. Carrie kills her mother by telekinetically stopping her heart. She leaves again, heading for the town roadhouse; Chris and her boyfriend Billy Nolan attempt to run her over with their car before Carrie takes control of it and slams it into the side of the roadhouse. Carrie is left dying from the shock and stress of using her abilities, along with blood loss from the knife wound, on the ground near the destroyed car. Sue finds her two hours later, and invites Carrie into her mind to prove that she was innocent, and did not wish Carrie any harm. Carrie believes Sue and forgives her. Carrie cries out for her mother and dies in Sue's arms.
1976 film[edit]
In the original movie adaptation by Brian De Palma, Carrie was portrayed by Sissy Spacek. For her screen test, Sissy Spacek rubbed Vaseline into her hair and didn't bother to wash her face. She also wore a sailor dress (which her mother had made for her when she was in the seventh grade) with the hem cut off.
The plot of the film is essentially the same as that of the book, but a few details are changed or omitted. The film offers no evidence that Carrie's telekinetic powers were present in her life before she was a teenager, instead only being triggered by her first period. Her first shown telekinetic occurrences include breaking a lamp in the shower room, toppling her principal's ashtray in his office, and sending a taunting child swerving off his bike and injuring him. Later, while in her room, she accidentally shatters a mirror by looking at it, unlocks her door from a distance, and pieces the mirror back together.
When Tommy Ross asks Carrie to the prom, Carrie runs away and hides, but her teacher, Miss Collins, finds her and convinces her that she is pretty, brushing her hair out of her face to reveal her smile. Carrie accepts the invitation. Her mother tries to make her stay home, but on prom night Carrie stands up to her mother and telekinetically throws her down against the bed.
The high school massacre is depicted more or less the same as in the novel. When Margaret corners Carrie, she hugs her and starts praying with her before stabbing her in the back. Margaret is about to stab her again before Carrie sends a barrage of kitchen utensils flying at her one by one, eventually crucifying her against a doorway, pinning her hands to the beams and sending one last knife spinning into her heart, killing her.
Carrie drags her mother's dead body into the prayer closet to hide and bleeds to death. The film returns to Sue for the final scene. She dreams about leaving flowers on the site where Carrie's house once stood (in its place is a For Sale sign with "Carrie White Burns in Hell" scrawled on it), but it quickly turns into a nightmare when Carrie's bloody hand rises from the earth to grab her. It is revealed that the hand grabbing Sue's arm is actually that of her mother's. Mrs. Snell is trying to wake her hysterical daughter from her nightmare, but Sue just continues to scream in horror, guilt, and torment.
In the film Carrie originally has childish traits. As the film progresses, Carrie gains more adult traits. Michelle Citron of Jump Cut compared Carrie to Babe Levy in the film Marathon Man.[1]
Carrie is also featured in flashbacks in the sequel The Rage: Carrie 2. In the film, Sue Snell is now a high school counselor and still deeply scarred by the events of the prom, being one of the few survivors. Her attentions are drawn to a student named Rachel Lang, who is exhibiting unstable telekinetic abilities. She explains to Rachel that telekinesis is a genetic disorder passed down from father to child. After researching Rachel's past, Sue discovers that Rachel is in fact Carrie's paternal half-sister: her father, Ralph White, had walked out on his marriage to Margaret White for Rachel's mother, Barbara Lang.
1988 musical[edit]
In 1988, ''Carrie'' was adapted into a musical co-produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company. Carrie was portrayed by Linzi Hateley in both the London production and the Broadway transfer. Her songs include "And Eve Was Weak," "Evening Prayers" and "I Remember How Those Boys Could Dance" (duets with Betty Buckley, who also played teacher Ms. Rita Dejardin in the 1976 film, as her mother) and the solos "I'm Not Alone" and "Carrie".
Linzi Hateley won a Theatre World Award for Best Newcomer for this, her first starring role.[2] She recorded the song "Carrie" for her album Sooner or Later.[3]
The pig's blood scene and the ensuing massacre is depicted in the musical number "The Destruction". Carrie seals off the exits, kills everyone present (accomplished through pyrotechnics and lasers), and brings down the ceiling, burying the promgoers. Carrie sinks to the floor and begins to cry. Margaret arrives in an evening dress, and comforts her. She then stabs Carrie on the school stairs (a "white-on-white staircase to heaven") during the song "Carrie (reprise)" in a moment described by one scholar as "the sort of moment Florenz Ziegfeld might have come up with had a lunatic asked him to stage a Grand Guignol version of his Follies."[4] Carrie uses her powers to stop Margaret's heart before dying herself, comforted by Sue.
The 2012 revival of the show features a different version of events. The blood is dumped onto Carrie from above, as in the book. She slams the doors shut, and turns off the lights, creating a blackout. The lights struggle back on in a strobe effect, as Carrie forces everyone else to the ground. The students writhe in desperation as Carrie sets the gym on fire, and telekinetically forces Chris Hargensen to break her own neck. Several try to escape, but are pinned to the walls. Carrie then leaves, exploding the gym as she does so. Sue narrates how Carrie cuts a trail of destruction across town on her way home, which Sue herself follows. At the White home, Carrie finds Margaret reciting prayers. She takes Carrie in her arms, and sings softly to her before revealing the kitchen knife and stabbing her. Carrie uses her powers to force the knife out of Margaret's hands before stopping her heart. Sue enters, and cradles Carrie as she dies of her wounds.
2002 television film[edit]
The television portrayal of Carrie was similar to the original novel, with the exception of her appearance. She was shown as having brown hair, a pale but clear complexion, and a small, slim frame. In this version Angela Bettis plays Carrie. It is implied that she is some shade of Pentecostal; her classmates once heard her speaking in tongues, and thought she was having a seizure (which, in fact, she was).
The story is told as a flashback. The police question several surviving students and faculty about the incident at the school and Carrie's death.
As in the novel, Carrie already shows some signs of rebelling against her mother's fanatical religious beliefs. She has a cross necklace, but only wears it at home. She also hides teen magazines in her "prayer closet," and secretly reads them when her mother locks her in there. After gaining confidence from accepting Tommy's invitation to the prom, Carrie retorts to her mother that she often believes her mother makes up the Bible quotes she constantly preaches at her.
Like the novel, her telekinetic abilities were present when she was a child, giving only one example: the shower of flaming rocks. Her only other telekinetic occurrences happened after the shower incident. However, more examples occur in this film that never took place in either the original novel or film; in one scene, she falls into a bizarre trance, during which she bends her metal ruler and cracks her desk in half with her mind, but is unaware of what she's done until she comes back to consciousness. After researching "miracles" and finding out about telekinesis, she begins practicing with it, attempting to control and intensify it.
When Tommy Ross asks her to go to the prom with him, she shyly accepts, but her mother refuses to allow it. Carrie uses her power against her mother, blocking the doorways and preventing Margaret from storming out. Carrie begins taking control of the situation, standing up for herself for once.
As she and Tommy arrive at the prom, Carrie is greeted with open arms, complimented and accepted by the crowd of students and teachers. She actually begins to enjoy herself, and is even more excited when she is elected Prom Queen. While on stage with Tommy, she drifts off into a daydream in which she and Tommy share the dance, leading to a shared kiss.
Carrie remains inside the gym after the blood lands on her. Most of the students, especially those in on the prank laugh at her, while the others just stare, horrified. Carrie goes into shock and loses control of her telekinesis, sending a wave of energy through the crowd and slamming the doors shut. Tina Blake's date, Kenny, tries to stick his hand through the doors in an attempt to stop them, but Carrie crushes and twists his arm between the doors. Huge sets of lights begin to shake above the crowds, letting off showers of sparks and falling down to the floor. One set swings and smashes against the mural, igniting it in flames.
The students begin to panic, and Carrie knocks Tina to the floor with a basketball backboard before viciously crushing her to death with it. As the gym erupts in panic, Miss Desjarden, along with Norma, find an exit route through a vent as the sprinklers above turn on, showering the gym with water. Carrie breaks the pipes lining the walls, leading up to the sprinklers, sending the water gushing out of the broken end, flooding down onto the floor.
Carrie then pushes the water aside and begins walking out as another set of lights swings and smashes into the electric basketball scoreboard. When it hits the water-soaked floor, it electrocutes everyone inside. As Carrie walks out, the gym collapses behind her. She then makes her way through the town in a trance, destroying it in a similar fashion to the novel, exploding gas stations and destroying cars. Billy attempts to run her over as Chris pleads with him to stop, but Carrie sends the car flying at a tree, crushing them to death.
Carrie finally makes it home; still wearing her blood-covered prom dress, she steps into a bath and washes herself. She then snaps back to herself; she doesn't remember a thing about what happened. Her mother calls her a witch and attempts to drown her in the tub while reciting the "Now I lay me" prayer. With her last ounce of strength, Carrie telekinetically stops her mother's heart, killing her - before ceasing to breathe herself.
Sue finds Carrie later, and manages to revive her. Sue then hides Carrie in the ruins of the school for about a week or so, while Sue is questioned by the police. Afterwards, Carrie visits her own grave, as well as her mother's. There, Sue insists that Carrie must not be seen by anyone, and that she must leave town. Sue then offers to drive her as far as Florida, and the film concludes with Carrie startled awake in the passenger seat of Sue's car by visions of her mother and Chris. When Sue questions her, she dismisses the dream as "nothing".
2013 film[edit]
In the 2013 version of the film, Carrie is portrayed by Chloë Grace Moretz.[5]
Her portrayal is largely a mix of the book and the original film. While she cowers in the shower room under the onslaught of the other girls' taunts, Chris Hargensen records the moment on her smartphone and later uploads it to YouTube. Her first shown telekinetic occurrences include breaking a lamp in the shower room, cracking the water cooler in the principal's office, and sending a taunting child swerving off his bike and injuring him. However, it is not until she causes a crack down the middle of her prayer closet's door that she first suspects she has telekinesis.
While spending the week in study hall, Carrie researches information about her powers both online and via books in the school library, and discovers that telekinesis is passed on from mother to daughter. Her grandmother had it, but her mother doesn't. She gradually learns to harness her power. Unlike the other versions, she can channel it with her hands. When Carrie tells her mother that Tommy asked her to the prom and Margaret refuses to let her go, Carrie lifts her mother off the floor as she tries to walk away, then pins her to the ground.
On prom night, when Margaret continues to beg Carrie not to go, Carrie sends Margaret flying into the prayer closet and locks her in. When Carrie and Tommy get to prom they dance and have fun with the other people. Carrie even starts to come out of her shell and joke. Meanwhile Chris has secretly entered the prom with the help of her best friend Tina Blake who then stuffs the ballet box. Tommy and Carrie are declared prom king and queen. As Carrie reaches her star on stage Chris dumps a bucket of pig's blood on her. Covered in blood Carrie stands there stunned. Tommy yells, "What the hell!" before Chris's henchwoman, Tina, projects the video of the shower incident on the big screens. Carrie starts to leave the stage as the rope holding the bucket slips, dropping it on Tommy, killing him. Chris and her boyfriend Billy run fearing that they will get caught as Carrie rushes to Tommy and cradles his head crying. Looking up she sees her own bloody reflection in a pair of sunglasses. Slowly rising she turns around to face the crowd. The lights begin to flicker as blood droplets begin to levitate off her skin. Carrie's eyes dilate before she screams knocking everyone to the ground with a telekinetic wave. She then locks the doors and sending objects flying all over the gym to kill those she believes are responsible. She uses electrical wiring to electrocute most of the survivors after opening the sprinklers. She then levitate across the gym as flames engulf the back stage and curtains. She lands safely outside and begins to walk. Hearing the getaway car Carrie sees Chris and Billy driving away. She follows and opens a large hole in the road with a stomp of her foot. As the car turns around Chris sees Carrie and tells Billy to run her over. As the car comes speeding towards her she stops it telekinetically smashing Billy's head against the steering wheel, killing him instantly. After locking the doors and trying to strangle Chris with her seat belt Carrie uses her powers to lift the car off the road. Chris attempts to make the car go but only succeeds in making the wheels spin before Carrie hurls the car into a gas pump. Chris's head smashes through the windshield and dies. A nearby light pole sparks igniting the car and gas pumps as Carrie walks away.
Carrie comes home and washes the blood off of her in the bathtub before collapsing in her mother's arms. As they kneel to pray, Margaret pulls a knife and stabs Carrie in the shoulder. As Margaret attempts to finish her off, Carrie uses her powers to push Margaret away. Margaret manages to slash Carrie in the arm. Carrie launches Margaret against the wall and crucifies her by pinning her to a wall with household objects, including knives that she propels in Margaret's chest and stomach. Carrie then releases her mother and cradles her as Margaret dies in her arms. Realizing what she has done, Carrie becomes hysterical and makes stones start to rain from the sky to crush the house, until Sue shows up. A furious Carrie grabs Sue with her powers and asked her why everyone tricked her at the prom. Sue then shows Carrie her mind and proves to her that she had nothing to do with what happened at the prom. Carrie telepathically learns of Sue's pregnancy and reveals to Sue that the baby will be a girl. Carrie then uses her powers to throw Sue to safety before the stones crush the house. After Sue lays a white rose on her grave, the headstone (vandalized with the words "Carrie White Burns in Hell") cracks, leaving it unknown whether or not Carrie is still alive.

Hurkmans EJ et al. – The majority of physical therapists reported that they 'always' applied most of the assessments and interventions recommended in a Dutch physical therapy guideline for the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Areas for improvement include the assessment of aerobic capacity and work limitations. The observed differences between specialist and general physical therapists support the added value of advanced arthritis courses.
Methods- Two hundred and fifty general physical therapists and 211 specialized physical therapists with advanced arthritis training were sent a questionnaire to assess the frequency with which they applied a set of assessments (n = 10) and interventions (n = 7) included in a Dutch physical therapy guideline for RA.
- Differences between general and specialist physical therapists were analysed using Student's t–tests or chi–square tests where appropriate.
- In total, 233 physical therapists (51%) responded.
- Of these, 96 (41%) had completed an additional arthritis course and were designated as specialist physical therapists.
- Among the physical therapists who returned the questionnaire, 69% (or more) reported that they 'always' assessed limitations in daily functioning, pain, morning stiffness, muscle strength, joint range of motion, joint stability, gait and limitations in leisure activities as part of their initial assessment, and 37% and 48% reported 'always' to assess aerobic capacity and limitations in work situations, respectively.
- Concerning interventions, exercise therapy and education were 'always' applied by 70% and 68% of the responders, respectively.
- Only a minority of responders reported 'always' applying ultrasound, electrical stimulation, heat therapy, massage and passive mobilizations (0%, 0%, 5%, 5% and 14%, respectively).
- Apart from aerobic capacity and work limitations, all other assessments were reported as 'always' applied by significantly (p < 0.05) more specialist physical therapists than general physical therapists.
- Regarding interventions, significantly more specialist physical therapists reported that they 'always' applied exercise therapy and education.
- Significantly fewer specialist physical therapists than in the general group reported 'always' using heat therapy, massage and mobilizations (p < 0.05).

So I notice it is all about the same old guns but no one ever gives credit to or considers to carry a Walther PPS.
I have one in 40 cal and it is typically my main carry.
I practice a massive amount so I dont care about ultra high capacity spray and pray handguns (speaking for my self). Some people do for other reasons Im sure and I totally respect that.
Given that there is this awesome little gun in a high power package with a 7+1 configuration option why does no one consider it?
I love mine and it shoots very tight at 15 yards and tight at 20. Past that you are on your own but what gun other than a 4"+ gun has that kind of accuracy.
No I do not work for Walther but the little gun is very nice and very concealable due to being so thin.

Our spouses are certain we are crazy for embarking on this project, and I'm tempted to agree. The guys at the LHBS seem think we are perfectly normal, although that may simply call into question their sanity. Read on and be the judge. I work at a farmers' market and one farmer in particular (we'll call him Farmer C) has been generous with his product. This past fall he gave us (that's me and my partner in fermentation crime...Big D) 700lbs of apples which we pressed into 25 gallons of cider. Farmer C was rather pleased with his cut. So when it became clear to him that he was going to have more persimmons than he could sell, he offered them to me and D. Now mind you we have never made anything from persimmons and there aren't that many recipes. But being the slightly unhinged amateur fermenters that we are, we figured we could make something. So we agree, thinking that we'll have a a hundred or two pounds of fruit and fill a couple carboys. Then Farmer C starts talking about 100 boxes or 600 or so lbs. Yikes...but we can handle it. And its free fruit...so what's the harm....right? When the fateful night rolls around, Farmer C pulls up to my house after the market and we start loading boxes. Box after box come out of his truck and into a covered are in my back yard. When all is said and done we have 170 boxes, or over 1,000lbs of fruit! Farmer C estimates we will end up with about 50 gallons of pulp once we mash it all up. Damn!Less than a third of all of the boxes. Still undaunted, D and I realize that our carboys will be woefully inadequate, both in terms of capacity and time. Cutting 1,000+ pounds of persimmons into pieces to fit inside a carboy would take days. After some thinking we come to the solution of a large, food grade barrel, and through the magic of craigslist, we find some within an hour's drive for just $40. So we hop in the car to see a man about some barrels. Two hours and two 60 gallon food grade barrels we stop by the LHBS for some yeast and advice. Good think we did too. Two 60 gallon barrels. The big piece that we were missing prior to stopping by was the impact of all that pectin in the persimmons. Thanks to the friendly folks at our LHBS, we left with some Pectinase and yeast nutrient, in addition to the yeast. Once back and my place we filled the barrels with water and left them overnight and sanitized them the next morning. Our thinking was that with 50 or so gallons, we could either fill one most of the way full and then rack into the other, or fill each one half way or so. Before we got started mashing up the persimmons, we did a little volume check. We measured the volume of two persimmons, one smallish and one largish one. Together they were about 1 cup. Then we ran the math: 1/2 a cup per persimmon X 24 persimmons per box X 170 boxes=2,000. For those of you keeping score at home, that's 125 gallons. Oh crap....Just the beginning. All of a sudden we were looking at two very full barrels. And yet we persevered. With the wooden paddle in hand we began tossing whole persimmons into the barrels and mashing them up as we went.Half-Baked...erm..half full. At that stage, things actually went pretty quickly, but mixing 50 gallons of persimmon pulp is hard work. One barrel full of persimmon pulp! In the end, our recipe per barrel: about 50 gallons persimmon pulp 1/2 tsp Potassium Metabisulfite 2 oz Pectinase Last night, after 48 hours we added 6 packets of Lalvin K1-V1116. As of this morning, no definite activity, but temps were in the hi 40s overnight, so that isn't surprising. Crazy or not, I'll post as things develop, including pictures.
No added sugar? What are you going secondary into? Sounds like fun.
I really hope you are taking photos!
I am...in fact I just edited the original post to include some. I'll post more as we go.
where is the epic button?seriously this looks awesome.i think you and the backyard brewpub guy should get together.you both seem to go way overboard.but i like overboard.so far it's been good results.
Any idea of the OG of the batches? 15 Brix (15% sugar) only comes out to about 1.060 on the specific gravity scale. Which is fine if you are going for more of a cider... but might be a bit low if you are going for wine. Anyhow, this is an awesome undertaking... keep updating with pics!
You probably could have pitched another 2-4 packets of yeast in each.
Looks awesome! Since you are using wine yeast, you should seriously think about bumping up the sugar content so you will have a true wine, and not persimmon cider. Bulk sacks of sugar are cheap. Are you guys just rigging a blowoff tube? I'm guessing fermentation would way overpower any airlocks.
This is unreal....PROST!!!

Indicted EPISD Employee Working in Albuquerque
POSTED: Saturday, April 30, 2011 - 2:50pm
UPDATED: Sunday, May 1, 2011 - 9:09pm
EL PASO – A former EPISD employee, indicted in a federal corruption probe, is making good money.
A grand jury indicted former EPISD associate superintendent Tomas Gabaldon last November.
He's accused of taking bribes and kickbacks, and using his position to help a business get a contract with the school district.
Right now, Gabaldon is collecting a $63,000 a year salary, as a Special Projects Manager for the Albuquerque School District.
A representative for that district said there's nothing illegal about Gabaldon working for them, while under indictment.
Comments News Comments
WOW, if there is nothing illegal about Gabaldon working for them while under indictment, I can only imagine what type of criminals Albuquerque ISD has on their payroll. Parents should be alarmed, this means they have other felons (criminal/sex offenders)on staff endangering student's safety. The representative is actually stating that Albuquerque ISD approves of corruption, bribes,etc.
Gabaldon, another worthless crook from EPISD like the current crook Garcia. WHAT YA GONNA DO WHEN THEY COME FOR YOU BAD BOYS, BAD BOYS? YOUR NEXT PUNK!!!
Good for him. Congratulations. Everyone deserves a second chance, even you Estephania. Reporting on this two bit story. Give us news that is actually important and worthwhile.

*Thanks to everyone who helped give Skinny a Daily First Place! :D
**Thank you Tom and the rest of the NG staff for the Front Page!
Once Coma was completed, I figured I would make another game just for kicks. It turned out this game took up more of my time than two semesters of college. Anyways, I hope everyone here at NG has fun playing :)
Also, what's always fun is discussing your thoughts on the meaning of the game. I sure know what it means, but what about you?
UPDATES/BUGS (upon update approval from NG staff):
1) Both ASWD and Arrow Keys will work.
2) No more getting stuck behind doors.
3) Easier game-play experience.
4) As for those of you experiencing sticky keys in Internet Explorer, a friendly user called bubblecue says
the simple solution is to go to the tools tab on internet explorer and click on internet options. Then you click on the security tab and uncheck enable protected mode and then click ok. turn back your protected mode when you are done playing. Hope that works!
I fully agree with thebodyH20 this game had a great start and i expected much since ComA was such a brilliant game with a beautiful story. Skinny does many things right and i was looking forward to the conclusion of this game. Sadly, I am not satisfied with the ending and your storytelling, it feels like you began to rush towards the end, without an AHA-effect like I had in ComA. Other than that, great game and I'm looking forward to your future projects :)
The meaning behind the game? I think it's that through struggle, you find the truth, but you don't get it while relaxing at a beach in virtual reality =).
Overall really awesome game (not like i could ever make anything like this). When I saw that it was made by the same person who made COMA, I thought, "This is going to be a good game (pats self on back)". That game was more touching than this one IMO, but this one was definitely longer. I also liked the way you included spiders as enemies to make it more scary. The only thing I would change if, you know, I could make computer games, would be to make some parts of the level more meaningful to the story. In coma, the people you encounter seem to be saying something of what the person's real life was like. I know there was sort-of that same progression with the dialogue you get from Felix and the people in chairs, and from the annoying screaming girl who's name I can't remember. However, the story, at least as I got it, seemed less original than in COMA.
All that long-windily said, 4.5/5 stars. Another really awesome game that made me feel better. Thanks!
This game is awesome but i could barley play the game cause my mouse was being gay. :/
But the game was really cool nice job. :)

Parenting Advice on Hot Topics Goes "Old School"
Many of us got our butts whacked, but even those of us who didn't still respected our parents discipline, because "grounding" was not a "stay-cation", it was a work order! When we got grounded for a week, it lasted a WEEK! And Mom had PLENTY of stuff to do around the house before dishwashers, swiffers and "wrinkle free" settings, so it was not unheard of to be on "dish duty" for 3 hours… "or however long it takes for you to get it done!" Once we were released, we couldn't wait to get the hell out of the house…and that was all part of her master plan.
So, how do I feel about kids and electronics, and play and chores? I guess the answer is: "The same way I feel about kids and anything…we are bigger and wiser and we have the most leverage, so we make the rules."
Just like Mom used to say, "You can stay in here and I'll put you to work or you can go outside and play, but you will NOT sit around and do nothing. Why? because I can't, and you have too much youth and energy to waste it being a bump on a log." Mom was brilliant!

Operator | Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) |
Mission type | orbiter and up to 4 small landers |
Launch date | Proposed for 2016 - 2020 |
Orbital elements | |
Inclination | 10º |
Apoapsis | 3,847 km |
Periapsis | 21,912 km |
Orbital period | 12.33 hours (1/2 sol) |
Mars landing |
MELOS ("Mars Exploration with a Lander-Orbiter Synergy") is a proposed Japanese planetary exploration mission that would investigate the evolution of Martian atmosphere, the water and climate of Mars.[1]
The mission's objective is to increase understanding on the composition of the interior and surface of Mars, as well as its atmosphere and surrounding space.[2]
The MELOS mission would consist of an orbiter and up to 4 small landers; all elements would be launched together on the same rocket. The orbiter would study the atmosphere, its and interactions with the solar wind, and image the current weather. Each of the four stationary landers would be deployed on pre-determined landing sites and perform different measurements:[2][3]
- Orbiter — Meteorology
- Lander A — Surface
- Lander B — Astrobiology
This lander would analyse soil near a methane vent. The proposed method is to use fluorochrome dye and a microscope to stain and scan for proteins and cellular membranes. The target sensitivity would be 10 cells / 1 g of soil (compared to 104 cells / 1 g in Earth desert). It would also detect other organic biosignatures or biomolecules.
- Lander C — Interior
- Lander D — Sample return
Sample return in late 2020s.[3]
This proposed mission by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), aims to understand the geological evolution of Mars and to answer the fundamental question "Why (and how) is Mars different from the Earth?". MELOS would attempt to determine if Mars had a warm and wet environment in its early stages.[1]

I used to only watch her show when she had like her favorite things or if people from a certain movie were going to be on there but, now I watch it every day and find her show informative and interesting as well. I don't really buy that she is sooo nice or at least to me sometimes it seems like she gives dirty looks to some of her audience members when she comes out at first and shakes their hands. Bt still,I lover her and her show. Does anyoneelse sare this love for her show?

The soccer ball falls at her feet. She dribbles down the field with ease and precision as adoring fans are screaming wildly in the background. She was born for this role. With an opponent closing in and the time on the clock ticking down, it's as if everything stops for just moment. She looks up and sees the opportunity she's been waiting for. She shoots. She scores.
If she could show emotion I'm sure she would be elated. Instead, she stands on the field with her adorably bright cartoon like eyes, waiting for her human creator to take her off the field. This, of course, is a hypothetical situation, but a new IndieGoGo campaign is aiming to make it a reality.
MU-L8 (pronounced emulate) is used to being the star of the show. Featured on the cover of the November 2013 edition of Milwaukee Magazine, this little robot is a true testament to the brilliantly creative engineers at the Marquette University's Humanoid Engineering and Intelligent Robotics (HEIR) Lab.
Professor and Director of HEIR, Andrew Williams, and his team of students are developing prototypes that will teach and inspire children of all backgrounds. "Our vision in the HEIR lab is to develop technology that will allow us to build low cost humanoid robots that can assist children in everyday life tasks, whether that's being more healthy in their exercise and nutrition, or learning how to read better," says Williams.
If you ask MU-L8 what her favorite thing to do is, she'll say she likes playing soccer. And she better start practicing because she has been invited, along with her human creators, to play in RoboCup 2014, hosted in Brazil.
This year MU-L8 is the only robot from the United States in her division. "We will be representing Marquette University and America," says Elise Russell, electrical and computer engineering graduate student in a promo video.
So how do we get MU-L8 to RoboCup 2014? The road to gold still has a few bumps in the way. There are three things still needed in order to go to Brazil: a second robot to compete (RoboCup is a two versus two tournament), registration fees and travel expenses.
HEIR Lab is currently accepting donations on IndieGoGo through April 30. With three quarters of their $5,000 goal left, there is plenty of time to contribute. For those willing to donate a little more, contributors can select a "thank you" perk from a variety of options, ranging from a personal thank you from the HEIR Lab team, to taking a selfie with the robot.
Getting to RoboCup 2014 is just one step closer to creating artificial intelligence that betters the world we live in. Why should humans get to have all the fun anyways?

The Irish Government should introduce a universal scheme of mortgage insurance in Ireland for high loan to value mortgages, according to a report by Economist Jim Power today.
The report concludes that, if such a scheme had been in place during the property boom, then lenders would have been forced in to a much more prudent lending regime.
It finds ample international precedents supporting such a measure in an Irish context and supports the view expressed by the IMF that the State should not provide the mortgage insurance guarantee as regulated private insurers are in a position to do so.
The Report "The Potential for Mortgage Insurance in the Irish Market" was launched today at a Genworth Financial breakfast briefing.
It reviews the performance of the housing market in Ireland and the potential outlook as the economy recovers, focuses on the positive role that mortgage insurance can play in aiding sustainable lending, particularly for the first time buyer in the high LTV segment.
The Report concludes that some first time buyers are unable to get on the housing ladder, even though they could afford to service a loan, but lack a sufficient deposit to buy a house. These borrowers need to use sustainable high LTV mortgages to access home ownership, it said.
Banks are less inclined to grant high LTV loans as they are more expensive from the banks perspective because the banks must hold more capital to cover the risk.
The introduction of universal mortgage insurance in Ireland would oblige all lenders offering a high LTV mortgage to have mortgage insurance in place. This would mean that the financial institution would not have to hold expensive capital against such loans.
The involvement of insurers in assessing mortgage credit would create additional oversight and aid higher lending standards. Additionally the solvency of the financial system would be helped through greater risk diversification, it concludes.
"Most importantly first-time buyers in particular would be helped on to the housing ladder, which is important from a social cohesion perspective."
"In Construction 2020 the Government committed to reviewing the possible role of mortgage insurance in Ireland as an aid to regenerating the construction sector. I believe that the introduction of a universal scheme of mortgage insurance targeted at the high loan to value market segment traditionally comprising first time buyers would be a prudent, sustainable and progressive measure. It would reduce credit risk, facilitate home ownership and bring lending practices in Ireland for the high LTV segment into line with best international practice. However I agree with the IMF that the State should not provide the mortgage insurance guarantee - this should be left to regulated private insurers in the first instance," Jim Power said.
Angel Mas, President and CEO, Mortgage Insurance Europe, Genworth said the Government now needs to tackle the lack of access to mortgage finance for first-time buyers with good credit histories and the ultimate ambition to own their own home.
"Despite the improved affordability as a result of declining house prices, first time buyers often don't have a big enough deposit to get their foot on the property ladder."

July 22 (Bloomberg) -- Ghana's cedi is set to appreciate to a two-month high against the dollar over the next week as offshore investors buy the West African nation's currency to invest in its first sale of five-year bonds since 2007.
The cedi will gain to 1.5060 per dollar, Kwabena Owusu, a currency trader at the local unit of Access Bank Plc said in a telephone interview today. That would be the strongest closing level since May 31, according to Bloomberg data. The currency appreciated as much as 0.2 to 1.5070 per dollar before trading 0.1 percent down at 1.5115 by 1:14 p.m. in Accra, the capital.
"Our expectation is that dollar sales by offshore investors before next Thursday's auction of five-year bonds will push the cedi up a little bit," Owusu said. "We think the cedi will gain about 0.3 percent by the close of the auction, from yesterday's close."
The Bank of Ghana will offer 300 million cedis ($198.5 million) of five-year bonds on July 28, it said in a prospectus on its website.
