Could anyone help me translate this for me:
『ブラック2・ホワイト2 』を、どんなふうに遊んでいるかを見せ合いっこ『みんなでポケモン』
It also came with two charts:
So I'm trying to find out it means.
Can I ask...Does this truly mean "Berserk Deity?"
And also...how would you put it with やみのディアルガ ? (My target is to get Berserk Deity Primal Dialga in Japanese)

Well, if one transliterate ベルセルク directly, it does means "berserk". But according to the context of ベルセルクの神, "ベルセルク" in here also has meanings of "rage, fury, violent, or even frantic".
Then, the word 神 had quite many different meaning, depending on the context.
In Japanese, the word "神" includes all the divine entity in different religions and myths. It can mean Jesus Christ in Christian, the Deva in Hinduism, the "God" in Greek and Roman mythologies, the deities in Taoism and Buddhism (but not Buddha herself), or even supernatural spirits in the Chinese and Japanese mythologies.
Let give an example, one of the well known supernatural being in Japanese mythology was Fujin (風神) and Raijin (雷神), where they are not god or deity, but known to be a supernatual being that controls wind and thunder. They both have "神" in their name.
やみのディアルガ is a character in the PMD2 series, where it is the final boss of the main story plot. In English version, it was addressed as Primal Dialga, but direct translation of Japanese is "Dark Dialga".
Well, if ベルセルクの神 is referring to やみのディアルガ, then the whole phrase of "ベルセルクの神" should rather translated as "Deity of violence", because in the game, Primal Dialga doesn't contain any emotion but instinct only, so I choose a meaning of ベルセルク where it omits the secondary meaning of "anger", where anger is an emotion.

So...the idea is to put ベルセルクwith やみのディアルガ, right? Or is it wrong?
Not really... It all depends on the context.
ベルセルクの神 is a phrase on its own, やみのディアルガ is another phase on its own. The point is are these two phrases related or not.
Like I said before, if ベルセルクの神 is a description phrase refers to Primal Dialga, then you should translate that phrase according to characteristic of Primal Dialga, so it should rather be "Deity of Violence/Turbulence/Cruelty...", any meaning literally equivalents to ベルセルク while it doesn't include emotions. If it is not, then you can just translate that phrase directly according to its literal meaning, so it can be "Deity of Berserk/Rage/Brutality...", may or may not include meaning of emotions.
One comment from me about translation: Translation is not mechanical work. You should includes the context of the whole sentence in order to translate appropriately.

Excuse me, is someone here capable of translating this tweet from Sugimori?
«短い文章で正確に答えにくい質問もあることを 理解していただけると助かります。»
I've been using Google Translate to get his answers and send mine to him but this time his reply is big enough for the translator to mess up.
«It survives and is also serving to understand that difficult question to answer accurately in short sentences.»
I really need to know if I'm finally starting to get somewhere with my conversations with him...
I think this would translate to...
To give accurate answers in short sentences to questions is difficult. That's the gist I was getting anyway. The translation could be wrong, though.
I think he means that giving answers on Twitter to comprehensive questions are difficult to answer in short sentences since tweets are supposed to be short.
Hufflepuff is the place to be as loyalty and fairplay are very important to me.
Could someone please translate this?: 鋼符「地獄極楽核爆破」
And this?: 幻想郷のルクセンブルグ

The second is "Gensoukyou no Rukesenburugu," or "Luxembourg, Gensoukyou" (like an address, the same way "Tokyo, Japan" is "Nihon no Toukyou"). I suppose it could also be "Gensoukyou's Luxembourg" or "the Luxembourg of Gensoukyou," which sounds like some sort of comparison.
As for the first, despite it being by an artist with a Japanese pseudonym, it appears to be in either Chinese or kanaless Japanese. O_o And since I don't know Chinese, here's a break down of what I could find in Japanese:
鋼 = hagane, kou = steel
符 = fu = charm/mark/sign/token
地獄 = jigoku = hell
極楽 = gokuraku = paradise
核爆 = kakubaku = nuclear (though I could only find it already attached to other words, such as "kakubakudan" = "nuclear weapon")
破 = ha, wa = something along the lines of "defeat"/"destroy"/"rip" (also, "(in gagaku or noh) middle section of a song" )
...Over here, I found it labeled "Hell Paradise Nuclear Blast [Metal]," so that may be it.

I thought of Touhou after seeing the 幻想郷 (Can be translated as "Illusory Village"), so the second line could be "Luxembourg of the Illusory Village"
As for the first line, it can be taken as "Steel Charm: Hell Paradise Nuclear Blast"
It's Japanese. 楽 is the Japanese variation of the character 樂.
SSJ_Jup81 has the gist of it, but the whole tweet means, "I'd be thankful [literally 'saved'] if [unstated subject, presumably his followers] could understand that there are some questions which are difficult to answer correctly with short sentences."
Alternatively it could be something like "Luxembourg, village of illusions," with 幻想郷 acting as a descriptor rather than part of the proper noun.
So I was partially right.
Oh? Well, that does make sense.... ...My god, I'll never get this language!
*sigh* I'm aware of "X no" as a descriptor rather than a possessive, but I guess I'm so used to thinking of "Gensoukyou" as a place name that to me, it would be like if I gave "Toukyou" as "[the] eastern capital" instead of "Tokyo" seemingly just for the hell of it. Stupid stubborn brain....
Thank you everyone, but now I need this please: 花の映る塚

I'm up for some nostalgia this afternoon. If some of you would like, it would be really warm and cuddly to hear about the very first doll you ever made. How did it come about? What prompted you? Care to elaborate? I was reminiscing over the phone, this morning, with my mom, who is in poor health. She remembers me making a doll when I was very young. It got me thinking...how about the rest of you? I was about nine, in third grade. I was allowed to go with a friend, to the library, check out a book on doll making. This was in the late 50's and it was still safe to walk a couple miles, unattended. We got the book, went to the hardware store, got copper wire and came home. Ripped up a sheet, gathered bandage tape and an old blanket for stuffing. We made the form from the copper wire, wrapped it with ripped sheet strips, covered it with the white bandage tape and put a piece of nylon from stockings over the head. We didn't have pantihose. Sewed it on, painted the eyes and used red nail polish for the little rose bud mouth. Made a funny looking outfit and called it a finished project. I still have her, this many years later. I've made a few dolls over the years, for my daughters but only occasionally. Now I'm beginning again and don't know anyone around me, personally who has the same interest. Just feeling kinda isolated today and thought I'd ask. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi I was thinking about the first doll I made, ha ha I was wanting to make one for each of my granddaughters that they could play with, not one to sit on the shelf and look at, so I too went to the local library, found a book from England on making rag dolls. It called for stocking fabric, I had no idea what that was, but finally hit on using single knit fabric, that worked fine, the instructions called for one ball of yarn for the hair, so I used one skein of knitting yarn. I had so much hair that the pigtails on the doll stuck straight out like pippi longstockings. LOL But you know what, the little girls loved them, after I convinced their mothers that they were to be played with, not saved. I remember my first rag doll, my aunt had lovenly made her for me, when my mother cut my long stringy hair, I proceeded to cut the braids off my doll, figuring it would grow back same as mine, Oh what memories you have brought back. |
My first doll was actually a hand puppet that we made in Home Ec at school. We used paper mache and molded the head and we had to design and make the rest of the outfit..I really loved that little doll and my teacher was impressed with my design ability.LOL |
Thank you for bringing back such a special memory: The first doll I remember making was a corn husk doll. I also remember making "church dolls" from hankies, Always - Jude! |
I made two dolls out of copper-wire, quilt-batting scraps and pieces of old sheet with fine copper wire for hair. I was only nine or ten at the time. I didn't have a pattern but those dolls were just like Barbie, boobs and all. We called them Judy and Jane. My brother and I would act out the movies we saw on Sat. afternoon with those two dolls. After I had whipped up the right costumes for the occasion. That was about 69 years ago.My, how time flys when you are having fun. |

I was probably in my 30's when I made my first doll. It was a church project for children in Brazil. We took little girl's nylon anklets and cut them in a certain way to form the legs and arms. Made a cute and soft doll. |

The Fiesta Bowl has provided thrilling football, crowned national champions and pumped millions of tourist dollars into the Valley's economy.
The event's rise from a fringe bowl with a minor conference shown on syndicated television to a top-tier game shown on national television provides lessons for any startup or growing business.
On the eve of the final Fiesta Bowl at Sun Devil Stadium, I thought it would be instructive to look back on its 35 years from a business perspective. (That and I don't want to write another one of those "here's what's gonna happen this year" columns where I get everything wrong.) So, here are the ingredients for success of the Fiesta Bowl and any start-up or growing business:
It has to benefit someone else: The real reasons for this bowl game were to give Arizona State University a place to play a postseason game and to showcase the Valley. The organizers needed to come up with a better rationale to persuade the NCAA it should add to the 10 bowl games already being played.
"Our team never gets to go to a bowl game" wouldn't cut it. The organizers found a little nobler cause — proceeds would go to fight drug abuse.
No business is viable if it only benefits the proprietor.
Don't take no for an answer:
The NCAA turned down the bowl backers in 1970. They took another shot at it. Persistence pays off.
Right time and place: The Fiesta Bowl was actually the Valley's third postseason football game. The first was the Salad Bowl played at Phoenix Union High School's Montgomery Stadium from 1948-52. The second was the original Copper Bowl, an all-star game at Sun Devil Stadium from 1958-60.
But the Valley in 1971 had a much larger population base than it did in 1948. It could support a bowl game. Perhaps more importantly, locals didn't necessarily have to. By 1971, it was possible for money from TV rights to pay a lot of the bills.
Sometimes an idea is ahead of its time or a venture fails because of execution.
Opportunity: In 1976 when Arizona and Arizona State decided to leave the Western Athletic Conference for the Pac-10, one of the questions was would this spell doom for the Fiesta Bowl. At the time, the Western Athletic Conference champion went to the Fiesta Bowl. It was presumed that in most years that would be ASU, Arizona or Brigham Young. Arizona and BYU both had large followings here. So without the two Arizona schools, would the game still be viable?
The Fiesta used the departure of the two schools to get out of its deal with the WAC, and it didn't partner with another conference. That gave the Fiesta flexibility that few established bowls had. It also became less dependent on ASU's participation, which gave the game credibility.
Sometimes it's hard to recognize opportunity's knock.
Remember who your customers are: This is what the Fiesta Bowl has done best. And like a lot of businesses, it's not always obvious who the customers are. The paying fans? Sure. The customers also include the TV network and the participating schools.
Shortly after moving from syndication to CBS, the Fiesta Bowl began playing on Christmas Day. The bowl took flak from sportswriters and local fans. On a day with lots a people at home and few sporting events on the tube, it was a big ratings hit. That took care of the customer.
This year, there was pressure for the Fiesta Bowl to take Oregon or Penn State over Notre Dame. But Notre Dame is a huge TV draw. The Fiesta Bowl ignored the sports talk shows, the bloggers and newspaper columnists and took care of its TV partner, ABC.
Next year's move to Glendale is another example. Yes, the game will lose ambiance, moving from a college campus near a great entertainment district to a field by a freeway. But as executive director John Junker told me a couple years ago, the new stadium gives the bowl more revenue. It needs more revenue to pay the teams and stay in the top tier of the Bowl Championship Series. When athletic directors look at these things, they don't take ambience into account. They are the customers.
Innovation pays: In 1985, the Fiesta Bowl was looking to increase its payout to participating schools in order to land more attractive teams. It came up with an idea — a title sponsor, Sunkist. Now everyone does it. Yeah, it's tacky and crass. But it helped the bowl.
The bowl's best outside-the-box move came in November 1986. The Fiesta Bowl pulled off a huge coup. The bowl landed No. 1 Miami and No. 2 Penn State to play for the national championship. It did so by getting NBC to up its rights fee and moving the game to the evening of Jan. 2, the day after the other major bowls.
It was the first time the Fiesta Bowl hosted a national championship game. It remains the most watched college football game in history.
And with it, the Fiesta Bowl became a truly major event.

WATCH: Gisele Bündchen's New Gig With Under Armour Will Make You Want To Punch Something
Under Armour is really bulking up its womenswear presence—which, considering the rising popularity of activewear in general, couldn't be coming at a better time. Last month, it unveiled its impressive "I Will What I Want" campaign, featuring pretty, otherworldly fit faces ranging from Misty Copeland to Lindsey Vonn. What it was missing, though, was a bona fide fashion force. Now, that gap has been filled, and dramatically so, with the help of Gisele Bündchen.
According to Forbes, Bündchen's new, multi-year Under Armour contract is "the biggest of her 20-year career so far," reportedly surpassing her five-year, $25 million deal with Victoria's Secret. While they're not divulging numbers, let's just say I'm confident she'll maintain her spot as the world's highest-paid model come 2015. After all, Under Armour's share price rose by four percent (to $71.13 million) yesterday immediately following the hiring announcement. The woman can sell clothes!
Bündchen's first job as an Under Armour spokeswoman, revealed yesterday, was an absolutely killer—literally, killer—"I Will What I Want" campaign video. In the clip below, she takes it all out on a poor punching bag while a slew of judgmental tweets flicker against the studio's walls. Body-wise, she's as toned and taut as any of the professional athletes whom Under Armour's tapped.
Says creative director John McKelvey: "We wanted to show a new side of Gisele—the unguarded, raw, real and brave side that shows what it's like living in the public eye."

Stop-motion Suzuki builds itself (video)
Creating a stop-motion video documenting the assembly of a Suzuki Swift over the course of months is downright insane.
Building a car is no easy feat. Creating a time-lapse video of the building of a car adds an element of complexity. However, creating a cohesive stop-motion video documenting the in-garage assembly of a rallying Suzuki Swift GTi over the course of many months, while cool, is downright insane.
Fortunately, Michal Bakiewicz is insane. He's done just that and published his video to YouTube. Check the video out below to see (or rather, not see) Michal in action.

I got an a teaser thing from CI recently and one of the teaser articles was on a test of different lump crab meats. They showed a picture of the winning can but I can't make out what it was and it probably isn't available around here anyway. I think I've only seen....Phillips? Is that the big name I always see?
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had actually made crab cakes from canned and if so how was it and what was your favorite brand of canned. I'm not a big fan of seafood but fresh crab cakes when I'm in D.C. or Delaware, yes! Mary |

I buy Flower brand crab meat in a 6-1/2 oz. jar. It's much better than anything I've had from a can. It comes from Thailand, however. I tend to buy frozen crab meat if I want to keep some on hand, however. Lars |

Costco carries the one-pound cans of Phillips, so that's what I buy. I think the can is $14.99/pound (?) It's pretty good and makes good crab cakes. It's also from Thailand. Lump crab meat from the Chesapeake Bay has become prohibitively expensive. Costco also sells frozen Phillips crab cakes that are pretty good, for frozen crab cakes, and the cost is comparable to buying crabmeat and making your own. |
- Posted by dixiedog_2007 (My Page) on Wed, May 21, 08 at 17:05
I'm all for fresh blue crab meat when I can get it but as virginia said, it is expensive (I live in Virginia). I will buy Jumbo Lump Crabmeat from Costco also which is Phillips but once again as Virginia said it is Thailand. Lots of people are fooled by the Phillips name because they (once upon a time) were an excellent Maryland Crab House that had ONLY Blue Crabs from the Chesapeake but not anymore. But I will say that it does taste very similar to blue crab and the cost you can't beat. What I buy at Costco is not in a can but in a 16 oz. plastic container and is Jumbo Lump and it costs $19.99 (jumped a $1.00 this past year). If I buy at Wegman's it is $28.99+. |
Chesapeake blue crab can't be beat for flavor. I prefer it to lobster or any other crab I've eaten. It is expensive though if you pay someone else to pick the meat. I haven't purchased any canned blue crab in ages, haven't even seen it for a long time in the stores I go to. It used to be packed in one pound cans which were pasteurized in a process gentler than regular canning, resulting in a product much like fresh crab meat which would keep well under refigeration. The back fin (lump)meat was packed separately and sold for a higher price. I think this type of crab meat is not widely distributed, but if you can find it and if you can afford it, you will have a very good product, indistinguishable from fresh. Most of the crab meat I have consumed was either blue crabs caught by me and the family (a fun sport for all ages) or live crabs bought by the bushel. Boil them up with Old Bay seasoning and dump them on a paper covered picnic table. Crack and pick at your own pace and wash them down with beer (lemonade for the kids). There's no better way to enjoy crabs. And catching them yourself is cheap entertainment. Jim |
Here is an article on blue crabs that you might find interesting.. |

Shortly after I finished the strawberry birdbath, I started on this guy. Don't ask me why I wanted to do a pointer. We have never owned one, DH never hunts with dogs, it just appealed to me. I am thinking of doing him in various blue china, after concreting of course. Hence the title. You can see one of several pics I used for reference on the wall behind him. I got the sculpture done today, on to concrete! (Yeah, I need to get my craft room done, including painting the walls. Too busy USING it to finish it!) |

WOW, Lady, that is goiing to be awesome. And I love the sound of blue china, seems ot fit him perfectly. How hard was this, it looks very difficult, what kind of wire did you use, Can't tell from pix, but what do you have it wrapped around so it doesn't collapse?? Are your hands hurting you?? I love the "point" and the tail. Looks very life like. You are very talented. Keep us in the loop!! I can't wait to see this one. Looks like you might outdo your strawberry, and I thought that would be very difficult!! |
What an amazing sculpture. Great work! It's incredible what you've been able to capture. This is one link I'll be following all the way along. Who can resist a blue dog? |

WOW!!! He is awesome!!! |
He is a Handsome guy already. Are you going to use a plain blue or blue willow like china? Maybe you should make your preferences known to the blue china Gods? I am proud of you, you are probably the only one of us who has taken her teachings to this level. Keep us posted..Love him |

Well you l'il heifer! I have been wondering what your next Riana project w/be ever since you said you were thinking of doing another. You are REALLY good w/sculpting w/that wire. I was so impressed w/you and your mom that day. You were so fast. Boy, this one w/be a fun-to-watch thread. Keep us posted. W/Blue Dog be a he or she? |

Hi Ronnie,that is amazing,my gosh you are good...looks perfect,blue and white china will be perfect ...Wow I'm amazed how well you do with the wire.We're one hr out from the eye of the hurricane so look what I'm doing...LOL!!! |
- Posted by ladyronnie (My Page) on Wed, Jul 23, 08 at 18:33
I am so proud...I have attained HEIFER status!!! Thanks everyone. I'm glad to have this part done. MERMAID: It is stucco lath, reinforced with more of itself. My hands are ok. You HAVE to wear gloves handling this stuff. The cut edges are literally razor sharp. I have a scar leftover from my strawberry project. I may find that I have to dock his tail, could be tricky mosaicing it and not getting it too thick at the same time. FLAG: I would like to use some of both. My thought is to use solid blue where he will have "spots", and blue willow or similar where he will be "white", so he is still overall blue but with a pattern kind of like in the reference pic. Right now I have very little solid blue, and no willow type, so I do need to keep my eyes peeled! SLOW: I think of him as a "he", but I don't know that "he" will be anatomically correct! Stay tuned! |
Whoa! That is some dog! This will be quite a lesson for us all. I'm so glad everyone shares. I, too, think the blue is going to be perfect for this guy. Keep us posted! |

Wtf? Not broadcasting yet?
Bump - No longer showing in New Posts
We ended up with 93 gallons of 1.088 in the fermenters. We did not add the 68 # of amber candi syrup because you know who forgot to pick up the Belgian Inverter at the local brew shop so we couldn't make it. And in his usual bonehead style he 'forgot' to order the nutmeg. So instead of having an adequate supply of nutmeg I get a call early this morning, "Stop at every grocery store you pass and grab all the nutmeg they have!". Opening two pounds of nutmeg in 1/4 ounce Durkee's containers is a HUGE pita. Not to even mention that the recipe CLEARLY calls for freshly growing! We spent $82.26 on F'ing nutmeg!!!!!!!!! One quarter ounce at a time. It will be a cold day in hell before we let Cape handle the ordering again! PTN
Ya that would have been fine except Dodo Head wanted to 'condition' it so it took four hours to grind!

Chrome beat Safari in December
Here's an interesting fact that dropped over the weekend: Google Chrome, the browser by the search company with a silly name, actually beat Apple's Safari browser in overall usage during the last month of 2009 (Chrome first beat Safari midway through the month, but new month-long data shows that Chrome is here to stay). Internet Explorer continues to lose users, but Chrome has been taking over the ranks pretty quickly, moving in above Safari as the number three browser of choice (after IE and Firefox, of course).
Bad news for Apple -- after their release of Safari for Windows in 2009, you'd think they'd have hoped for a little more in terms of browser share at the end of the year. But it looks like they're going to have to do something even bigger than that to fight the current on this one -- that is, if they want to do so at all. With a relative newcomer topping Safari so quickly, it's possible Apple could back off of promoting and upgrading their proprietary browser entirely. Still, with Chrome using Webkit, the fact is that for the average user, things are getting better all the time.

Monday, August 02
Yankee Stadium
Attendance: 47,034
Bronx, NY (Sports Network) - Vernon Wells doubled, homered and drove in two, as the Toronto Blue Jays held on for an 8-6 win over the New York Yankees in the opener of a three-game series.
The Blue Jays scored seven runs in the fifth inning off Yankees starter A.J. Burnett (9-9) before New York chipped away at its deficit. The Yankees had chances to potentially draw even, but the Toronto bullpen held on, making a winner of Brandon Morrow (8-6). The Blue Jays starter allowed five runs in 5 1/3 innings, and struck out nine.
"I wasn't in trouble too much, just a couple pitches I left up and out, and they put them over the fence," said Morrow, who gave up two home runs among his seven hits allowed.
Edwin Encarnacion also homered for Toronto, which snapped a two-game slide.
Nick Swisher homered twice and Mark Teixeira added a two-run shot, but the Yankees lost their second in a row and fell into a tie with Tampa Bay for first place in the AL East. The Rays beat Minnesota on Monday.
Alex Rodriguez went 0-for-5 to remain stuck on 599 career homers.
"It's gonna happen. You just want him to continue to try to have good at-bats and try not to think about it too much," said Yankees manager Joe Girardi. "But it's easy to say, 'Don't think about it.' But he's asked about it every day, and there's flashbulbs going off every time he goes up; change the balls. So I don't know how you don't think about it."
Swisher's two-run homer in the first inning gave the Yankees the lead before Wells began the second with his 21st homer of the season. That was the only run Burnett allowed over the first four innings, but he fell apart in the fifth.
Following Travis Snider's leadoff double, Encarnacion hit a low, inside sinker to left for a home run. Burnett walked Jose Molina before Fred Lewis doubled to put runners in scoring position with nobody out.
The Yankees got one out when Rodriguez threw home after fielding Yunel Escobar's grounder. But Jose Bautista came through with the big hit, a two-run double that pushed Toronto's lead to 5-2. Wells then doubled to plate Bautista, and after Burnett struck out Lyle Overbay, he let loose a wild pitch to send Wells to third.
Wells easily scored when Aaron Hill sent a double to left, and that was the end of Burnett's night. He allowed eight hits, walked two and struck out four in 4 2/3 innings, and was responsible when Hill scored on Snider's ensuing double off Sergio Mitre.
Burnett's outing halted the momentum he gained over his previous two starts, when he threw 11 1/3 scoreless innings.
"The sinker was just getting too much plate," Burnett said. "They made an adjustment on me that inning. Big key is singles are all right, but extra-base hits and homers will take you out of a game."
New York's bullpen held Toronto scoreless the rest of the way, allowing the Yankees to make a comeback attempt. That started in the fifth, when Teixeira hit a home run with Derek Jeter on base after a single.
In the sixth, Robinson Cano walked, moved to second on a wild pitch and scored on a single by Lance Berkman. Morrow left after that base hit and was replaced by Scott Downs.
Pinch-hitter Marcus Thames greeted Downs by hitting a single off the pitcher's foot, putting runners on the corners with one away. After getting quickly checked, Downs remained in the game and got out of the inning. Brett Gardner grounded back to the pitcher, and Toronto caught Berkman in a rundown between third and home. Jeter then grounded out to end the inning.
Downs worked a 1-2-3 seventh inning, and the Blue Jays managed to hold New York scoreless in the eighth. With two on and two out, David Purcey came in to pitch and struck out pinch-hitter Austin Kearns.
Kevin Gregg took the mound in the ninth and gave up a one-out solo shot to Swisher, who crushed the ball down the right field line. However, Gregg struck out Teixeira before getting Rodriguez on a grounder to seal the win.

After The Storm, Connecticut Slowest To Restore Power
The Christian Science Monitor has this tale of the tape:
"Power outages in Connecticut hit 831,000 customers. As of Wednesday morning, power had been restored to about 284,000 of those customers – one-third of the peak."
In Massachusetts, 450,000 customers – almost two-thirds of the peak – had their power back Wednesday.
New Hampshire had 72 percent of outages fixed Wednesday.
What does all this mean? For the second straight major storm, Connecticut is the worst performing Northeast state at restoring power.
We check in with a reporter from the Wall Street Journal and take listener phone calls about the storm.

Out here, you got your shiesty cats yappin back bosom track
Until we take it back, you pro'ly won't be feelin rap
WORDSWORTH, brooklyn night, what it lookin like?
5 senses, 9 inches, 5 foot in height
Out here, you got you're ?crooks and hikes
Shook and sheist?, look alike
Payed off the books from dice, good lookin and hookin tight
HOOK 1 [both]:

Back when I came out, first joint I hit it out
New styles to talk 'bout, new ground to walk about
Still breakin shit wit the hammer of thought god
Bigger than ass god, hittin your ass hard
Act it out cause there no time to word shit
You never win wit wordsworth the word smith
The verse gets tighter every second the earth twists
Heard its Q-tip and Words you had to purchase
Refer this, now wait a minute, what's that I heard skip?
Nerves twich, play this so much it's prob'ly your third disc
On purpose, at your service, basement to service
Learn this, how can you rehearse something that's perfect?
Isn't it funny when you use your favorite pen
And get your rhyme pad write shit that's truly bad?
Embarrass yourself, make a buck and mockery
In the hipocracy, you never toppin me
I'm the monopoly and jail is your ?catoponese? of unfair policies
Invade your rotten "B", you hit the lottery
Women, you spottin me, I'm extortin you upon your ?matrobotomy?
Aiyyo it gotta be the way I respond that makes you on to me
Song hittin award winnin, y'all just the nominees
Play it safe, I'll arrange your wake

Attitude - angry, snotty, speaks slang and cocky
Time to hangin gotta bring a posse
Through rainy days she got me, like Whitney stay wit Bobby
Yo, your cake is in the kitchen, you wish for preminision
It's turned around by my firm thoughts of demolition
It's time to numb your run and dim your vision
It's time to give up the hopes and dreams that made your aquesition
Ain't gotta drop top dag clothes and roll the 60s
But after shows, ladies drop tops and show their titties
Of course the globe can't oppose, it's risky
Or even go against me, I'm WORDS
So everytime that you flow you spit me
We in the asphault, you cause your last fall
Insult to injury is where we curse the salt
Douse the open wound to the tomb
Its time to sit back and watch professionals in full bloom
More scratchin til fade out...

Coffee Collective knows that people enjoy a bit of grub with their cup of joe and that's why it's created a food-pairing menu that lists food that will specifically complement your chosen brew. Food-pairing menus already exist for many types of wine, so why not for your java? The menus change with the coffee flavors, and the foods are kept simple, so as not to distract from the coffee. The result is an engaging, but not overpowering, sensory experience for your taste buds.
The Coffee Collective team discuss its idea by saying, "The idea was to keep it as simple as possible. Three small dishes, each paired with a specific coffee as a combined experience. The dishes change along with our coffee menu, so new flavor combinations can be tested." If you're a coffee fan, try your next cup with a bite of a harmonizing snack.

Miley Cyrus Bikini Pictures
Miley Cyrus and Her Mom Break Out Their Bikinis in Brazil!
Miley Cyrus was spotted lounging on the beach with friends in Brazil this afternoon. She was also joined by her mom, Tish, who showed off her huge back tattoo in a hot-pink two-piece. Miley fit the bikini time in between her busy Gypsy Heart Tour, which has her traveling around the globe to show off her latest album, Can't Be Tamed. Miley's already been to Chile, Argentina, and other South American stops, and she's set to take the stage in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo this week. She'll be on the go until July when she wraps things up in Australia, but it looks like she has plenty of company to keep her entertained during her travels. Tish has proven to be one of those fun companions since she tweeted embarrassing pictures of Miley sleeping during their most recent flight.

Baby Keith's Unique Nursery
Our nursery was decorated on a small budget. We combined our loves of different outdoor things. He is an Arborist and loves trees and I am a horse person and both are evident in this unique room. My husband built the baby's crib himself using maple, oak, and black walnut woods that he dovetailed together. My husband also hand paint the tree and made the stencils for the rocking horse border we painted. The rocking horses, baby mobiles, and other baby things were mostly ours from our childhoods.

Over/Under: 'The Breakfast Club' vs 'Lucas'
Features By Nathan Adams on August 30, 2011 | Comments (11)Seeing as this is the first go around, you might be wondering to yourself what "Over/Under" is, and rightly so. It's a new weekly column in which I will take to task a film that has gotten more than its fair share of success and praise, and then champion a related film that comparatively gets little play. This isn't necessarily to say that the first film is bad and the second one good, just that the disparity in love between the two is a wrong that needs to be righted. But if you choose to believe that what I'm writing is more mean-spirited and antagonistic than intended, that's fine with me too. Let's spar in the comments; I could use the attention. For our inaugural column we'll be looking at John Hughes's 1985 detention drama The Breakfast Club, a film that the teenagers who work for me still mention as being a classic, and David Seltzer's 1986 nerd meets girl movie Lucas, a film that I can't get a darn one of those kids to give a chance.

I'm not one for skilled first date small talk. I too often err on the side of the irreverent. While some potential mates want to talk about career, ambition and strength of familial relations during that getting to know all about you phase ; my affections are ultimately won over by the ability to engage in conversations bordering on ridiculous, hypothetical and sometimes slightly disturbing.
Sometimes this penchant for whimsical and philosophical discussion gives way to uncomfortable moments. On one such date, after being grilled about things mostly sentimental in nature, I took the hint of an awkward silence to pose a pertinent (or impertinent to some) quandary to the member of the opposite sex on the opposite side of the table as she slowly sipped her second lager of the evening:
"If you had to have sex with any member of the same sex, who would it be?"
This to me has always been a valid question that offers valuable insight into a person's thought process. Granted it wasn't a question that I had really ever asked anyone on a date, but weeks later it would inspire a nearly two-hour long debate amongst friends at a dinner party.
On this occasion however, my date took the opportunity to pause and reflect or as any mildly-skilled interpreter of human reaction might say, deflect the question entirely. I took her silence as my cue to give my answer.
"Personally, if I had to be taken by another man. I would probably be okay if it were one of two people; Paul Newman (alive at the time) or George Clooney. It's just the fact that both of them are so damn charming; real man's men. They'd tell you to get undressed and you'd probably want to at that point. It wouldn't be forceful and at the end you'd have been romanced into doing it. And as long as there's romance and that melting feeling, I'm generally okay with it. Because in the end it's Clooney...and hey, Paul Newman! Not bad right?"
"So...yeah...Clooney and Newman are my two."
The conversation never really recovered and the girl left when the final sip was drained from her glass, but from what I could surmise my date didn't have much of a sense of humor and was looking to get married in the next five months to someone who looked at life in the most sobering fashion and wasn't secure enough in their sexuality to hypothetically give their flower to a deserving member of the same sex.
I'm not seeing anyone right now, but if I were they'd have to have a healthy and lustful appreciation for anyone from Natalie Portman to Oprah Winfrey, because I could see reasons for women to be attracted to either.
And yes, good taste. (And I'm glad you qualified that Paul Newman had to be living for it to be a go.)
My old question was, "If you could rate your sexual proclivities on a scale from 1 to 10 where 1 is must have sex with the lights off and never remove your nighties and 10 is stops short of animals, what number would you give yourself?"
Inevitably the braggadocio would follow, "Well I'm a 9.9, baby!"
"Oh," I would reply mildly, "so you're into fisting, golden showers, and scat?"
"What's that?" they'd ask.
"Well if you don't know, that would probably make you about a 5 or a 6 then. I'm about an 8 or 8 1/2 and believe me, we 8s KNOW what lies between 8 and 10!"
May not have been fun for them, but it was fun for me! ;-)

Riley Cooper | WR | Philadelphia Eagles
Posted: 9/24/2014 12:07am et
Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper leads all wide receivers in routes run, according to Cecil Lammey of ESPN Denver, but has totaled just nine catches for 71 yards.
Huddle Up: More alarming for Cooper owners is the Sunday performance of rookie Jordan Matthews who nearly matched Cooper's season totals in one game, catching 8 passes for 59 yards, including a pair of TDs. Cooper remains the starter in two-WR sets, but any more games like Matthews had on Sunday might result in a reversal of roles.
Posted: 9/3/2014 5:37pm et
Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper (ankle) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 3.
Huddle Up: The week is off to a good start for Cooper, who is coming off a lost preseason with no receptions. See if the momentum continues throughout the week.
Posted: 8/17/2014 2:02pm et
Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper (foot) is fully participating in practice Sunday, Aug. 17.
Huddle Up: Cooper has been battling the foot issue for a couple weeks now and not been able to do much of anything in practices or games. He is hoping to play in the team's third preseason contest Thursday night in Philly.
Posted: 8/8/2014 8:31pm et
Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper (foot) was inactive for the preseason opener Friday, Aug. 8, against the Chicago Bears.
Huddle Up: Cooper is no longer wearing a walking boot but wasn't expected to play Friday night because he hasn't practiced in over a week. Cooper should return to practice next week and hopefully will play in the Eagles second preseason game.
Posted: 8/5/2014 11:51pm et
Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper continues to wear a boot on his right foot, and he hasn't practiced in over a week.
Huddle Up: A troubling ongoing issue for Cooper, who is aiming to follow up on his breakout 2013 season (47-833-8).
Posted: 8/2/2014 12:06am et
Philadelphia Eagles WR Riley Cooper's (foot) foot injury is not considered serious, and he should be able to return to practice in a few days, according to head coach Chip Kelly.
Huddle Up: Cooper is coming off a career-best year and has a nice chemistry with starting QB Nick Foles. He should improve on his 47/835/8 stat line from a season ago, especially with DeSean Jackson gone. Cooper is getting selected in the Round 9 range on average of fantasy drafts.
Posted: 2/27/2014 12:51pm et
Updating a previous report, the Philadelphia Eagles re-signed free-agent WR Riley Cooper on Thursday, Feb. 27 to a five-year, $25 million deal.
Huddle Up: Cooper was able to shake off last summer's concert-comment controversy and post career highs across the board in games started (15), receptions (47), receiving yards (835) and TD catches (8). In fact, those numbers trumped the totals from his 3 previous seasons combined. Look for him to remain a low-end WR2/high-end WR3 opposite DeSean Jackson.

Hi, new to the forum. I recently bought a place in Chicago -- great location, but grossly underestimated the noise level from the nearby freeway. I'm looking at replacement windows and have read quite a bit on here -- most threads seem a couple years old, so I am reposting on this topic. Does anyone have any recommendations for a STC 40 (ideally 44), operable window? Cost is a slight issue, but I am only looking for 2 bedroom windows on the streetside -- peace of mind may justify a higher price. Specifically, it looks like Atrium Silent Guard would work. Older threads have bashed Atrium. Has anyone had any positive recent experience with this company? What about Kolbe? Their double-hung (not my preferred -- would rather casement) has a high STC and might work. I'm also looking at Loewen, but without having a quote, they seem quite expensive? Lastly, I have considered Jen Weld, but recent posts here give me pause. Any other options? I'd be particularly interested if there was anyone could offer options in Chicago/SE Wisconsin. Anyway, long post. All insight is greatly appreciated! Cheers! |

You are throwing out cost as a slight issue and nothing about STC aligns itself with that and even more is the case when you are talking about Kolbe and Loewen. Depending on what sort of noise cancellation you are looking for, a standard replacement window will get you into the mid-30s (usually good enough for most folks) with laminated glass. Anything in the 40's will require a dedicated STC window and will normally include and exterior storm sash, offset glazing, and/or laminated glass. What are you current windows? |
- Posted by millworkman (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Tue, Jul 15, 14 at 15:42
Plus just windows will really not make that much of a difference as sound comes travels everything. |
Thanks for the replies. A little more context. The current windows are weather shield, dual pane casements. The sound is entering the house primarily through the windows. The third floor, master bedroom is the second loudest room in the house next to the first-floor. The noise level on the third floor is greater than the second even though the second is a wall of glass in the form of a sliding door. In terms of cost, while my aim is to be cost-effective, I'm willing to pay a premium if it addresses the issue. My greatest concern is buying expensive windows that may provide only marginal improvement. I have read a lot on here and other forums. It sounds like installation is key; triple windows may be equal to double in terms of effectiveness; and, laminate may help some, but spacing between lites is the greater determinative factor. With this said, there does not seem to be a lot of info on which companies make good windows. Maybe they are all the same and it is just a matter of finding a company that can best meet the above. Alternately, some companies have posted STC ratings that are higher than others. I am wondering if their numbers can be trusted?? (Sorry for the somewhat run-on. Pecking on my phone :) Thanks! |

Can Weathershield offer you a laminated replacement sash? If you could try one of those out, that would be your best option to vet the improvement potential. |

Jogger killed as driver loses control of car
Comment on this storyPietermaritzburg - A jogger was killed in an accident on Saturday morning when a driver lost control of his vehicle and hit him.
Paramedics said that 60-year-old Neil Robinson was jogging with his partner, Lynn-Rae van den Berg, at around 8am in Alexandra Road in Pietermaritzburg, when the tragedy occurred.
The couple were training for the Maritzburg Marathon, when the driver of a Hyundai Getz lost control of his vehicle and the car struck Robinson.
"Van den Berg managed to jump out of the way in time. Unfortunately the car struck the man and he died on the scene," said ER24 paramedic spokesman, Werner Vermaak.
The driver of the vehicle, believed to be in his early 20s, sustained serious injuries. He was taken to Mediclinic Pietermaritzburg where he is in a stable condition.
A case of culpable homicide and reckless driving is being investigated.
Van den Berg is said to have been hysterical on the scene and was treated for shock.
Robinson is survived by his partner Van den Berg and two children from his first marriage.

With a load capacity of 17.6 lb and a maximum height of 68.4", this lateral arm tripod features a tilting center column which allows continuously variable positioning for macro photography and other uses.
Engaging the lateral adjustment lever frees the center column once extended past the chassis. Once extended, the column can tilt all the way over to a 180° upside-down orientation – with possible stops everywhere in between, including a 90° lateral position. Twisting a knob on the chassis locks and unlocks the 360° swiveling of the center column and its upper collar.
The tripod's flip locks, which enable the extension and securing of the leg stages, are user-adjustable. By using a supplied Allen key the user can tighten two points on each spring-loaded flip lock to safeguard their continued reliable performance.
The cast aluminum chassis is built to meet rigorous professional standards.
When not being used in its lateral mode, the AC-2320LA's rapid center column functions like you'd expect from any professional tripod, extending after a twist of the knob on the upper collar. For protecting your camera when the column is retracted quickly, there's a rubber damper under the center-post collar. Anti-twist steel locking screws underneath the center-post collar enable you to fasten the camera head securely.
Pull-in/push-out positive leg locks allow positioning of the three legs independently at three different angles. This permits shooting at low angles or on uneven terrain. For stability on softer terrain, the AC-2320LA features metal spikes that extend and retract by twisting the foot's rubber tip.
