I went out to eat at a restaurant a few weeks ago and they had the most beautiful ferns in their garden I ever saw. The ferns were very tall (about 4') and very upright. In the center of each frond were smaller fronds (leaves) that were black. The owner told me that they grow to normal size and change to green later at end of May/June (right about now) and that later in the season fiddleheads appear at the top of the ferns. This seems particularly strange to me because I always thought that fiddleheads only appear in early spring when the ferns are pushing up from the ground. She said the plants have been there longer than she has (50 years) and is not sure of the variety but thinks it might be called a Fiddlehead fern. So, I did a google image search for fiddlehead fern and nothing even closely resembled it. All I saw where fiddleheads and lots of recipes. LOL I then searched and came up with Royal Fern, Cinamon, and Ostrich and none of them looked like it. The only one that came close was Interrupted Fern but it didn't appear to grow as tall or as upright as the ferns at the restaurant and appears scraggly in comparison. Also, in all the descriptions about Interrupted Fern none mentioned anything about fiddleheads appearing at the top at the end of the summer.Maybe she's wrong on that because I never heard of anything like this before but she assured me that if I returned at the end of the summer I would see the fiddleheads for myself. Anyway, if anyone has any idea what this fern is please let me know. Thanks. Oh, and I am trying to go back to the restaurant as soon as I can but it's some distance away from where I live. |

You don't think there's a difference between the major parties on gay marriage? Because there definitely is. As for starting a war with Iran, one party is clearly more likely to do that, although it's hard to say absolutely that either one won't. They'll probably both bring the troops home from the current theaters though.
Balancing the budget within the next four years isn't an important real issue. It's arbitrary, and possibly counter-productive. Balancing the budget eventually is a worthy goal, but doing so in the middle of a recession is not. Auditing the fed sounds reasonable but I wouldn't call it important.
I agree with you on the NDAA and the Patriot act, and the pointless war on drugs. But those values have to be weighed against other important, real issues, where there is a real difference: Education availability, corporate person-hood, investment in green energy, support for the worst-off, international diplomacy, trade policy, immigration policy, financial regulation, health-care cost-management, and of course, social policy. These are all important, real areas of disagreement between the two major political parties. Will you ignore them all?

Kristy Kruger: It was about a group of five to seven people, kind of standing around the keg, just talking. And somehow a discussion of endangered species came up, in which I posed the question, is the unicorn endangered or extinct? And basically, there was a big gap of silence [...]and then everybody laughed. And then that laughter was followed by more silence when they realized I wasn't laughing. And I was like, yeah, oh God, unicorns aren't real? Oh no.
Re:Because (361 comments)
Though everything you said might be true, the sources you provided give no indication of that.
When it comes to top brains, on the other hand, USA is indeed #1 by a huge margin.
Actually that link shows it has several of the top universities, ranked by files they put up on the web (and the visibility thereof). Top brains? not proven. Even if those are the universities where the top brains congregate, it's far from clear that those brains are American ones.
It's also doing rather well in R&D
That source, a Wikipedia article whose own source is no longer accessible at the relevant hyperlink, says that the U.S. spent more than any other country on R+D in 2010. In percentage of GDP though, you're down around fifth or sixth. Ok, so you spend a lot on R+D. But is it effective? efficient? no answer there.
tech achievement
Ok well this is measured, in your source, by 4 things:
1) Patents granted and royalty license fees received from abroad, both per capita
2) Number of internet hosts per capita and percentage of exports that are "high or medium technology"
3) Telephones and electricity consumption per capita
4) Years of school and enrollment in math and sciences.
I'll give you number 2 and maybe even 4 as a reasonable measure of technological development, but with a broken patent system churning out meaningless patents, and a wealthy population hooked on cellphones and wasting electricity, the deck is stacked here in favor of the U.S. in a way that has nothing to do with technology. And you still come in behind Finland.
corporate governance
Wikipedia offers a spartan PDF with literally no context or explanation. Corporate governance by what metrics?
And for what it's worth, your suggestion that some people aren't important in an assessment of national intelligence is bunk. It's often up to the public to make informed political choices about scientific issues, from evolution to global warming to birth control to etc. etc.
It's important that the entire populace, hookers and all, is educated enough to make the right decisions.
Re:Now see, This is why you are a boob (462 comments)
[...]the One World Government/Police State that is proposed as the answer to totally regulate carbon, wrecking the first world, transferring most of the remaining wealth to the developing world, etc. leaves us an impoverished socialist hellhole[...]
So much bunk.
Maybe some people are proposing something like that. I've definitely seen quotes like "cap first world economic activity". But while you're arguing with an imagined, monolithic group of "greenies", people in the other corner are busy having a heated conversation that goes something like:
"Well, people don't believe science. So what ELSE can we do?"
Isn't this article proof enough that people are talking about lots of ways of addressing the problem? Government investment in green tech on a larger scale, that's one way to go. Nuclear is another, and despite what you think about "greenies", I'd bet that most people who've accepted the AGW science would also accept nuclear solutions. If that's not enough of a debate for you, there's also been plenty of research and discussion about "climate engineering" based solutions. Some people are even saying "preventative action is impossible... so how can we prepare?"
Honestly, there's a simple fact you've missed: you can't trust one side to report to you on what the other side is saying. Never trust fox about what a democrat said, or MSNBC about what a republican said, or Drudge about what AGW scientists say.
If you knew what the other side was actually saying, you wouldn't be having this ridiculous joust with a strawman.

Re:No Alaska (297 comments)
At time of writing, I saw two or three people declare this proof of global warming. Most people simply defended AGW, without using the 12-month period as evidence. They do this as part of the eternal argument with the other side, which uses every mention of temperature, climate, or weather to shit all over people who listen to scientists.
There's plenty of good evidence for AGW already without jumping at every outlier on the temperature charts.
Re:No Alaska (297 comments)
All that says is that the U.S. has a really abnormally hot 12 months starting in Nov. 1999, and had an even abnormally hotter 12 months starting in May 2011. Neither of these things say anything on their own about temperature trends even in the U.S., let alone globally. It's just supposed to be interesting that the 12-month average U.S. temperature record was broken, the same way it's supposed to be interesting (but isn't) when local papers say "Rainiest Year in UK Since 1903
Maybe it's also useful for scientists who use the NOAA report, who might investigate other variables to see if that "hottest 12 months" correlates with increased insect populations, or lower cancer rates, or whatever.
I think the problem is that you're trying to have an argument about what this data means with someone who never showed up. Not EVERY story about temperature or climate has anything to do with the politics of AGW.
Re:Anti global warming target practice (297 comments)
It's called The State of the Climate report because it contains information on the state of the climate. If you'd ever bothered to read it, you'd know that the "Global" section contains lots of data on global temperature, sea ice extent, precipitation, and more. Of course, since the information is compiled by the U.S. government, it also contains in-depth information about weather and climate in the U.S. (believe it or not, global climate isn't the only kind of climate).
So no, the label doesn't convey any lie. But you certainly do, whether by ignorance or intent.
Re:Good science and hats off to him (297 comments)
Usually part 3 is the establishment of a neo-pol pot regime, or national socialism, or some financial scam to make the rich richer and the poor poorer, or most commonly meaningless feel good frippery that will do absolutely nothing but "raise awareness".
Despite my/our disagreement being with Part 3, we get slandered and our words are twisted around
YOU get slandered? Wow, how hard that must be for you. If only those Nazi libs knew what it felt like to be slandered, I'm sure they'd never do it you again.
By the way, the Pol Pot talking point is one that you might want to reconsider. It makes you sound like a foaming rabies case. Why parrot all the other fringe Repubs when there are plenty of other socialists both real and fictional to pick from?
Re:No Alaska (297 comments)
What? Why do you think it matters when the period begins? And how do you think it indicates anything "opposite of what the standard AGW crowd will take away" from it? Since it's just the US (contiguous, at that) it doesn't indicate *anything* with regard to AGW. So how about you just leave it at that, instead of trying to stretch thin evidence and make flimsy claims.
Re:Seriusly America (735 comments)
The Austrian school of economic thought is not the only one with claims to legitimacy, so hold your horses. Keynesian economics is at least as legitimate, even if you personally can't believe it. If government spending kickstarts the economy, then it's worth paying the (very low!) interest on debt and then repaying the principal somewhere down the line. The question is, can it fire the economy to that degree? Well, no one can agree, but Krugman isn't "shit-your-pants-insane" for thinking so.
Here's another point Krugman makes that I think is pretty good: Without some inflation, businesses and individuals just sit on tremendous amounts of capital, since that's the safest thing to do. If inflation was higher, you wouldn't see companies sitting on cash reserves billions of dollars thick- they'd be investing that money in economic activity, hopefully job creating activity. Obviously there's such a thing as too much inflation, and we can quibble about where that is. But the conservative position- that 4 or even 5% inflation would mean the apocalypse- neglects the fact that companies are holding on to their cash right now, and that hurts growth.
And for what it's worth, austerity can and does hurt the economy in all kinds of ways. Maybe it also helps in some ways, but here's the thing(s): public healthcare saves money, via preventative care, so long as the poor won't be left to die otherwise. Police forces save money (if they're working right) by preventing property damage, theft, and ensuring the safety of those engaged in commerce. Coherent public education strategies create money by preparing the workforce to be productive. Cutting these programs *costs* money, and it may cost more than it saves.
If you disagree with me and you want to counter-argue, that's great. I only ask that you recognize I'm not "shit-your-pants insane" or "beyond help" to think any of these things.
Re:I vividly remember (744 comments)
It's weird that you chose to a link to a site which argues exactly the opposite of what you're claiming: even when some scientists predicted cooling, six times as many predicted warming.
It's strange how more and more, the "skeptics" are leading me to information that validates AGW theory! Just the other day, some particularly rabid commenters on the conservative blogs convinced me that the "97% consensus" number was totally unfounded and lacked a source. Since I'm the kind of *legitimate* skeptic to whom all claims are suspect but worth investigating, I attempted to track down a source myself and within three minutes had two published papers showing 97% agreement among the scientific community on AGW.
Re:positive feedback loop (264 comments)
The comments on that article show just how entrenched positions have become. A lot of conservatives got wind of it via Alex Jones, who painted the whole thing as "The cult of AGW wants to burn your house down," which is preposterous to anyone who bothered to read the article. It very clearly doesn't say that. Yet somehow there are many replies along the lines of... well I'll quote: "Come to my house with matches, pal. You'll be leaving on a stretcher under a plastic sheet." Also: "Wow Steve, you ride a bike and burn down people's houses. You really are a moron. Not just that but a dangerous psychopath to boot. Shouldn't you be in jail or institutionalized in a psychiatric facility?" And so on and so forth.
I can't stress this enough... the two sides aren't even speaking the same language. It's was already apparent that both sides have their own talking points, their own debunkers, their own pejoratives, even their own scientists. What only became clear to me here was that they can look at the same sentence and come to totally different conclusions- not just about the import of the sentence, but about the literal meaning of the sentence.

it's pretty clear Mitt Romney will be selected at the party convention. (Romney is 1st; Paul is 2nd.)
I'm not sure by what metric you mean, but if you're talking about delegates, Paul is fourth (says Politico) behind Romney, Santorum (campaign suspended) and Gingrich (campaign apparently still chugging along for some reason Newt only knows). Paul has half as many delegates as Gingrich, about a quarter as many as Santorum, and just under a tenth as many as Romney. It's a done deal, and unsurprisingly the result is the one the "lamestream media" has been predicting since before the primary even began.

Do you think that gesticulating wildly in the direction of 1984 makes you look smart? It's a children's book.

I've been a little under the weather the last couple of days, but I'm hoping to get back to work real soon. Please look for new posts in the next day or so. See you then..
Today, the Realtors tried to argue that the housing market is "scratching the bottom," or at least that's what their chief economist Lawrence Yun said. Sorry Lawrence, as usual, I don't buy it. Sure, sales were basically flat in January, down just 0.4 percent from December (although down 23.4 percent from a year ago), but far more telling of the market is the price...
I got a lot of responses to my previous post about re-listing homes. Here's a sample: From Blair D: "I think re-listing can hurt the seller as much as the buyer in this market. I know of people who are interested in buying a house but are sitting on the sidelines waiting to get the best deal...
There's been a lot of talk in the blogosphere lately about the phenomenon of "re-listing", and so it behooves me to weigh in. "Re-listing" is when an agent takes a property that's been sitting on the market a bit longer than one might like and removes it from the market, only to "re-list" it days or even minutes later as a "fresh" listing.
The monthly report on housing starts released today from the U.S. Dept. of Commerce didn't have the shock and awe of last month, when the report showed a whopping 14.2 percent free fall from the month before (that was actually revised even further to 14.8 percent by the way), but it still has analysts concerned.
Before you all go running to your mortgage brokers, screaming to refi your adjustable rate mortgages into good ol' 30-year fixed rate loans under the "new temporary" conforming loan limits agreed to in the recently-signed stimulus package, take a breath. It might not be all Congress cracked it up to be.
I've gotten several emails about my post Big Builders Baffled and the previous post to that, Builders Don't Get Bail Out, So They "Bail" On Congress. The "issue" revolves around whether the National Association of Home Builders' Political Action Committee, BUILD-PAC, has agreed to cease all approvals and disbursements of BUILD-PAC contributions to federal congressional candidates and their PACs.

The thumb safety is always OFF, but the rebounding firing pin does not touch the primer and the firing pin safety prevents its doing so, even if the pistol is dropped. To shoot the pistol, manually cock the hammer and pull the trigger. There is a half-cock notch to catch the hammer if it slips, as long as the trigger is not pulled at the time. - CONDITION THREE - is loaded magazine, but empty chamber. Thumb safety is always OFF. To shoot pistol slide must first be racked to chamber a cartridge, then pull trigger. What do you think is the best way to carry?

Skip Maine state header navigation
Bureau of Human Resources
June 11, 1996
TO: | Agency Personnel Officers and Managers |
SUBJECT: | Adjusted Service Dates |
The Governor's Employee Recognition Committee has surveyed state agencies and has decided to base service recognition awards on the adjusted service date, rather than the continuous service date that has been used in past years.
This will mean that eligibility for service awards will be based on the same rules that determine eligibility for vacation accrual rates. For most (but not all) employees, this date will count all prior service as well as continuous service time.
In order to support this change, and to ensure that this important date is available for other information needs, all agencies must enter the adjusted service date into each employee's MFASIS record. The purpose of this memo is to provide a schedule for entering a correct date for all employees.
Employees Affected
All executive branch employees with an appointment type of C, D, or F must have
an adjusted service date in their records.
Completion Date
Adjusted service dates must be entered no later than Friday, July 12, 1996.
Reporting Aides
Each agency currently tracks eligibility for vacation accrual, and it is
recommended that these records be used to support this effort. Additionally,
agencies may wish to develop reports from the MFASIS information warehouse that lists, for
each employee, the original hire date, current hire date, longevity date, and adjusted
service date (if available). Such a report will assist agencies in identifying
employees for whom additional research may be necessary. You can easily produce your
own report or have one produced for you by calling Richard Paradis at 287-4410.
Please keep requests for microfiche records to the absolute minimum that is required to complete this project, as this Bureau may not be able to accommodate large orders of microfiche records within the time allowed to complete this report.
Additional Notes
1. The adjusted service date is entered on the H0BU6 screen.
2. Agencies must maintain a correct date on the MFASIS system as changes in employment status dictate.
3. Most employees who have separated and returned to state service must wait three (3) years before prior service time is credited as service time for vacation accrual purposes. Please ignore this requirement when entering adjusted service dates. Once the adjusted service dates is entered, counting all creditable time, employees for whom this waiting period applies can easily be identified by reporting all employees who meet the following conditions: A current hire date within the last three years, AND an adjusted service date that is earlier than the current hire date.
4. Please do not print Human Resource Profiles when entering or changing adjusted service dates.
5. Definitions of service dates, including adjusted service date, is contained in Appendix A, "Employee Service Dates", of the MFASIS HR manual. This appendix also contains a worksheet for calculating adjusted service dates for your use. Please limit questions to this Bureau to unique situations that are not addressed by this general information. Such questions may be addressed to Jeannie Johnson.
Thank you.

Best Place to Play Shuffleboard Denver 2004 - Candle Light Tavern
At the Candle Light Tavern, bar games are taken seriously. And while the dart boards, pool tables, foosball and Golden Tee Golf games are always popular, the kick-ass shuffleboard table is where the serious action happens. The long wooden table is covered with plenty of smooth sand, and an electronic score board hangs above center court; fifty cents is the going rate per game. And while the Candle Light is revered for its laid-back atmosphere, shuffleboard challenges are battled to the last hanging puck. This West Washington Park dive packs 'em in nightly, so hit it early to stake your claim.

MK2 Focus The place to chat about general questions, window tinting, exterior body, interior and lighting upgrades for the second generation 2008-2011 Focus.

Focus Addict
Are there any questions?
Hey guys,
So after having my car for a while I have very few complaints and overall I am happy with Das Auto. But I do have a few questions/comments and I want to know what you think. Here is my list: 1. I have heard (not researched) that newer cars are actually more efficient with their AC on vs. their windows down because of the extra drag. Anyone know which is better on the second generation focus? I believe it would be better with windows down simply because the engine is powering 1 less thing and our cars are not that aerodynamic in the first place. 2. What is up with my gas tank? When I fill up I like to FILL UP, usually only stopping when gas is at the tip top of my tank. But in the Focus, the pumps always stop ~1-1.5 gallons short of a completely full tank. I am thinking this is an environmental feature so people don't have that little squirt of gas that spills onto the ground. I didn't actually think this until recently when I went to a station that had a sticker saying, Please do not top off your tank, we want to keep fuel in your car not on the ground. Some of my other vehicles I could just let the pump do the work and once it clicked off I wouldn't even be able to squeeze an extra dollar in..... Thoughts? 3. How many people actually use the shift light in MTX's? I tried (for the first time) yesterday to follow it and the RPM's seemed WAAAAY too low for the speed I was going. Is this more for optimal fuel efficiency? 4. One of my dash lights came on: Door Ajar by DarderSauce, on Flickr BUT the interior lights do not come on nor does the Door Ajar warning come up on the dash display. Even after re-shutting all the doors and making sure nothing is getting slammed in them the light stays on, what gives? This one just recently happened and I haven't had much time to investigate the cause. What do you think? To be continued?..... That is all for the moment but I would like to know what some of your questions are as well as answers/comments to the questions I posted on the list above. Thanks for taking the time to read the post

After a savage televised rant against blogs two years ago, Buzz Bissinger today is a habitual Twitter user.
Byliner.com, a digital publishing company, withdrew the e-book "After Friday Night Lights" by Buzz Bissinger from Amazon because of a pricing dispute involving a promotional giveaway.
"Friday Night Lights" author Buzz Bissinger reveals his insane shopping addiction in the latest issue of GQ. He's spent $638,412 since 2010 on designer labels including Gucci, Versace, and Tom Ford.
Acclaimed journalist Buzz Bissinger knew his clothes shopping habit had gotten out of hand. From 2010 to 2012, he figured he'd spent maybe $250,000 on clothing, most of it leather. When he did the math, though, the total added up closer to $600,000. The word "shopaholic" tends to be associated with chick flicks, chick lit, and perhaps flighty celebrities such as Kim Kardashian. A dude from Philly known for writing about sports probably doesn't enter the conversation.
SAN FRANCISCO — Twitter Inc. on Wednesday unveiled a new tool that allows marketers to disseminate targeted messages based on the content of users' tweets, a technology that could help elevate Twitter's effectiveness as an advertiser to a rarefied level demonstrated only by digital advertising leaders like Google Inc. Twitter's advertising business is relatively modest and is likely to generate 2013 global revenue of under US$600-million, according to the consultancy eMarketer.
While advertisers like Anheuser-Busch, Coca-Cola and Hyundai targeted the 100-million-plus viewers of Sunday's Super Bowl, auto insurance company Esurance has mixed a traditional TV commercial, a prominent Twitter hashtag and a good old-fashioned sweepstakes to take over social media today. The company is giving away $1.5 million to a single Twitter user who tweets the hashtag #EsuranceSave30 between 4 p.m. Eastern Sunday and 4 a.m. Eastern Tuesday.
Twitter's stock is up 4% this morning, going as high as $58.19. That's blowing past even the most bullish price targets on the street. Until this morning, the highest price target on the stock was $54. The consensus is $41.45.
What should we make of Twitter's performance on its first day of trading on Wall Street?

By Katie Fustich in General on Oct 26, 2013
In the biggest "Wait...what?" I've witnessed in a while (well...maybe since earlier today), Party City has been caught red-handed committing a Class-A Photoshop disaster.
The models of their (what I suppose one could call) "festive legwear" selection, have all been Photoshopped to appear in both the straight and plus size versions. Did they really think we wouldn't notice the same image flipped or stretched? As the Gloss keenly notes, "[T]hese all look wonky, weird and aren't particularly effective."
While on one hand it's interesting to think a model was Photoshopped to appear plus size, as opposed to the usual "chop off half of her body" routine, I find the whole situation rather demeaning. In a Scrooge-like effort to save a dollar, Party City took away potential jobs from plus size models, and give customers a skewed version of what these products actually look like on a plus size woman.
How do YOU feel about it? Should this just be brushed under the rug as an annoyance or has the crappy-costume superstore crossed the line?
Thanks to The Gloss.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:+ Great versatility to be powered up (it really works with 1xAA 2xAA and 1xCR123A)
+ Pocket size with 1xCR123A (powerful) or 1xAA (a little dim with this)
+ Lubed quality threads
+ Well balanced
+ Nice spot, not too tight not too wide
+ Clip to attach it to a pocket and avoid rolling
+ Tail clicky switch (reverse)
- Not aluminium anodized (scratches can be easily done)
- O-rings very thin (not expected to last)
- Not o-ring at the lens
- Batteries rattle a little if you shake the torch
Don´t remove the clip if you plan to mount it again later. It's very hard to do it and that's the way I got a lot of scratches and discovered the low quality aluminium it is made of.
For the price this is one of the best torches you can get at DX. I got also the black model and it's the same quality/features.

Arizona Wildcats
Arizona AD Byrne tweets to reassure fans about Rich Rodriguez
Seemingly from the moment it was learned Louisville was looking for a new football coach, the name Rich Rodriguez began to surface as a possibility.
The coach at the University of Arizona the last two seasons, Rodriguez was said to be at the top Louisville Athletic Director Tom Jurich's list.
A move to Louisville would bring Rodriguez closer to his original stomping grounds of West Virginia as well as allow him to lead a program that is set to join the ACC. There is also money, as it is believed the Cardinals could offer to pay the coach more than the Wildcats.
Monday morning, Arizona Athletic Director Greg Byrne sent out a tweet related to the subject.
Coach Rodriguez is doing a great job w/our FB program. We talk regularly & feel good about him being our long term HC.
— Greg Byrne (@Greg_Byrne) January 6, 2014
While this is in no way a guarantee that Rodriguez isn't going anywhere, it has to be a bit reassuring to Arizona fans who may have been a bit nervous over the weekend that their coach could be on the way out the door.
In two seasons, Rodriguez has guided the Wildcats to a 16-10 record with a pair of bowl game victories. As of now, he has one of the country's best recruiting classes coming in 2014.

You Might Rent Features & Options On Cars In the Future
2013 Hyundai Sonata (437 comments)
My car already has options such as this. I have a remote car starter that only works if you pay the annual fee. Mind you, this fee covers remote monitoring, gps and emergency services as well. So, what would it take to make the seat heater or the mirror defroster or the driving lights an after purchase option, not much. Just a few more things attached to the internal computer.
Now if someone can figure out how to permanently configure my starter to run without paying the fee and installing another unit, I'd be excited!
Now, for the devils advocate. What happens if the company goes out of business? Who maintains the database that states that you bought that option? What happens when they decide that they don't like an option or it gives them problems they just shut it off without notice? I'm sure a class action would resolve that, but something to think about.

Feelings 2Ashley stared at the figure he saw before him.It was a man, an Eighteen year old actually. He had long tangled black hair that reached to his shoulders, he was skinny, and had creamy white skin that almost glowed. His eyes were a stunning blue, but what was most unique about him was that he had long elegant, black feathery wings that were as tall as him, he was holding a old book, flipping through the tattered pages. The liquid eyeliner that he was wearing, was running. His red lipstick was smeared. All that he wore was a white bloody towel around his slim waist.Ashley froze in absolute terror as the winged boy felt Ashley's presence, and looked at him, his stunning blue eyes pierced through Ashley, studying him intently. It almost seemed like those blue eyes were searching his soul. He felt extremely vulnerable as he felt the temperature of the room dropped. Ashley shivered slightly as the icy cold wrapped around him like a blanket. He stared directly into thos
Feelings 1"Ashley...Please tell me what's wrong!" A girl's frantic voice buzzed through the cellphone."No Sandra." Ashley Purdy cried into the phone. He didn't want her to find out. If she did, it would ruin him. Sandra was Ashley's best friend, but he could never tell her the truth behind his fake smile that he would always wear around her.Sandra took a long pause before sighing, soon after that, the line went dead.Sandra had hung up on him.Ashley Purdy sobbed into his pillow in the darkness as he lay on his bed. Ashley's thighs and arms stung as fresh cuts covered them, blood slowly seeped through the white bed sheets. He cut a little too deep this time. He didn't want Sandra knowing the truth, he didn't want to drive his only friend away. Ashley Purdy starved himself everyday and every night, for the past three years. Ashley was Sixteen now, his Seventeenth birthday was in two weeks. Not that anyone cared but Sandra anyways. His parents had left him, and so did his past friends just becau
Feelings 4Ashley was crying for the third time this night.He didn't know why he was sobbing into his pillow once again,he didn't know why he would cry over a stranger asking him what the cuts on his arms were. He wailed into his pillow in frustration as he sat on the floor. Ashley bit the end of his pillow and growled.Ashley wanted to find out more about this fallen angel who broke into his fucking house, wait, he's probably just a teenager with fucking strap on wings, he's not a fallen angel. Angels don't exist, and neither do fallen angels.Ashley's tears were soon replaced by anger. He wanted Andy to leave - but yet...he didn't...It was complicated. Ashley had mixed feelings about Andy. Maybe Andy could be good company? Ashley thought long and hard.Would Lucy like Andy? She wasn't very nice sometimes... Ashley remembered the day when Sandra met Lucy. Sandra tried to gently pick up a sleeping Lucy from under the couch, only to be bitten and scratched on the arm. But Lucy was a ni

He could feel sweat and dry, cracked warpaint clinging to him, and he felt dirty, and far too hot.His head was pounding, but as a rockstar Jinxx was used to the feeling.

I don't like that the cap could potentially slip off in my bag (which is why I keep it in the box). Since it's a pencil, I find it easy to apply, especially to the bow (top?) of my lips because they're kind of sharp/pointy (did that make sense?). Love the color, I just wore it a few times and have to see how it weathers eating, etc. Looks good on a variety of skin tones. I hate sharpening pencils though, so I guess there are pro's and con's to this shape. If this wasn't so expensive, I would buy it more often.

This is my go-to HG red lipstick!
This is the perfect Red for a pin-up look or when you want a classic red lip. This is an orange based red, so it works well with my NC25 skin! Not too dark, or too bright, this is the PERFECT matte red lip!
This is a great lipstick to add to your red lippie collection, or the perfect starter if you're testing the waters in the sea of red lipsticks..

I love the texture of this lip pencil because it doesn't dry out my lips. I also love that, unlike many reds, it doesn't turn hot pink on me. I found that in pictures it has a slight orange tinge to it, making it more of a warm red than a true red. Not quite the red I was looking for - need something deeper and more of a blood red. The search continues...
I received quite a few NARS products from my best friend for the holidays. This being one of them. I cannot stress enough how impressed I am with everything I got. I wore this out tonight and it is almost just as I applied it before leaving. I was afraid to eat or drink but it didn't budge at all. I am in love. As far as applying, it went on so evenly and smooth. Usually I skip liners because they tend to dry out my lips. This worked beautifully. I'm now looking into purchasing a few more shades. Highly recommended.

I love everything about this but the high price. Goes on creamy and is truly velvety and matte. Leaves very little transfer and a good stain remains for the better part of the day or night. If I'm not feeling the matte, or don't want to reapply, it takes pretty much any gloss over it without pillage. Perfect dark red color - neither blue nor orange. I will repurchase if I can't find a more reasonably priced alternative.

another all time fav of mine. i'm a red lips/black liquid liner addict so have tried mannnnnny over the years and this is one of the best if you want deep but not dard redredred matte long lasting lips.
my other fav is mac russian red and this is a similar hue but a little bit more intense, a little bit deeper. and like most nars products i try, compared to mac, a bit more pigmented.
the packaging/application is unique. it's a fat pencil. so really thick. can be annoying if it's not sharpened and you're out on the town, but even with all the sharpening it still lasts a long time. as long as anything else. but on another sense i love that you can sharpen it. you can't do that with normal lipsticks. and when it's freshly sharpened you don't need a liner!
just like with any lipstick i use a liner, to define my outer lip shape, with it on initial application, but then because it's so dense, on reapplication/touchups i don't need a liner. i just use this. and i love it.
when it gets smaller i actually like the packaging cause i can then tuck it in my bra, which you can't do with some fat packaged lipsticks.
great color. great formula. great name too.

I just got this at sephora, and boy am I excited to wear it!
Isn't that great. I'm used to shiseido products, which always SNAP closed, and the little plastic cap, while not loose at all, just seems flimsy to me. The size of the pencil itself is a little small for what you pay for, but the tip is just the right size for a lipstick pencil.
Intense. Deep, deep, deep matte red. I personally put a little bronze lipstick in the center just to make my lips a bit fuller, but in general i like the matte. this stuff stays put, too (I've only reapplied after eating/drinking, and that was more a little touchup than actually reapplying it) In fact, it stays on so well that it practically stains your lips. I look forward to trying out the other colors!

this pencil makes red lips easy. the shade is perfect for my medium-toned pinay skin, and the color doesn't turn. the wear is quite good. as long as i don't eat or drink, the color stays put for four hours (can't comment on longer than that--i can't go longer than four hours w/o food or drink). i haven't had issues w/this pencil being difficult to fit in a sharpener. it fits in two drugstore sharpeners i bought ages ago & whose brand i can't remember.

I love it. It's my perfect matte red, much better than MAC Russian Red because it's not drying at all. The color is perfect, a true red with cool undertones. And as it's a pencil, it's easier to do your lips without smudging.

I love this product. I really wanted to get on the boat for red lips this fall and I looked this up. I prefer that its a pencil rather than a lipstick.. the color is high pigmented and has pretty good staying power. It also leaves a wonderful tint when I take it off. It is very drying however, but I just use a little Burts Bees underneath it and it helps hydrate. Overall, I love this. I can't wait to try the other products.

I have sensitive eyes and this eyeliner does not irritate my eyes so I am pleased with that. However, the color was just so smooth, I passed it on 10 times at least. By then I could not get an even line, it's an OK product but just that. i will not be buying again (not even finishing the one I got, probably)
This eyeliner is amazing! I bought it in brown, but there are many other colors too. Its super easy too apply, and it stays on all day. It comes with a smudger and sharpener too. The only problem I have with this is the packaging. When i want to get to the smudger, it stays in the little cap on the end, so I always have to pull it out. Otherwise, I love it!!!
I heard lots of good reviews on this so I picked it up in spiced chocolate. It does glide on very easily and look very nice. It's very smooth and the color is rich. The big downside is that it does not stay on long at all!!
I have over 20 black eyeliners, pencils, creams, gels and all - and this is what I have been reaching for each day. Revlon Colorstay was my daily liner but it smudges just a bit and THEN stays put. And my gel liners seemed to be irritating my eyes, they were always bloodshot. The fact that this was non-irritating and 'nourishing' was appealing.
I actually love the packaging - the width of the pencil just perfect, little sharpener on the end and I do use the smudger thing, it blends my mistakes.
I found the pencil easy to use, glides on effortlessly, goes on dark, can easily layer for a dramatic look. I didn't find Colorstay's line to be particularly pretty, but this one is. I feel like I can use this pencil for any look.
Shockingly, it stays on all day for me. If anything it might fade a bit but never smudges. I use it over my nars primer, have not tried it on its own.

I really like this liner! I have it in Cosmic Black, and it provides a great natural definition to my lashes. I really like using this during the daytime because it's a softer black - making it more appropriate. I also find the formula of this liner to be great! It looks neater on my lower lash line for longer than some of my high end liners.
Although this is an inexpensive eyeliner, I really like the staying power. I used on my waterline and it did not irritate my eyes. I've had problems with burning and sticking to my contacts in the past, but was pleased to find this did not. Easy on the eyes!
I got this liner in the color Cosmic Black. I like how it's so thin because I don't like wearing obvious eyeliner. I like the texture. It glides on smoothly and looks great.
But, on me, it starts flaking and disappearing within about half an hour or less. Within a few hours it was almost completely gone, except for some flakes around my eyes and cheeks.
The packaging is great though. It's easy to open without nicking the liner. And it comes with a built in sharpener and smudger.
This is a really great eye liner! It's a retractable, automatic pencil with a smudger at the opposite end. The point of the pencil is fine, so it's easy to draw a thin line close to the lash line. You can also draw a thicker line with the side of the pencil and use the smudger to soften it. I got the Cosmic Black, which is a deep, true black. It stayed put all day until I took it off at night. No problems with removal using regular cleanser or with sensitivity (I wear contacts). No cons with this one. Looking forward to trying different colors!

I have sensitive eyes and this is the only eye liner that I can use on my waterline that doesn't agitate my eyes. It could have better staying quality but since it doesn't make my eyes burn or water, I will definitely be buying it again for my waterline. I also love the built in sharpener and that it's retractable.

Quarry Tour Lafarge's Rock Quarry and Aggregate Lab Recently, I toured Lafarge's Cumming, Ga., 500-acre rock quarry and Aggregate Lab. Plant Manager David Stewart delivered a world-class view of the quarry, which has been in operation since the 1970s, to me and Masonry Advertising Director Marvin Diamond. A state-of-the-art Aggregate Lab is the home of endless testing of materials and products. The many functions of the quarry and lab truly are fascinating. Each time an area of the quarry is chemically blasted, 30 to 50 tons of rock are produced. Oversized pieces are broken apart with a hydraulic hammer. Rock is dumped into a box with a vibrating plate, and then enters a jaw crusher. It is reduced to seven-inch pieces and then sent up a conveyor belt to begin the separation process. More than 10 sizes will eventually be sorted. The rocks are washed and sold to companies as aggregate, sand or other materials. A total of five companies are actually located at the quarry. Private citizens can buy aggregate and boulders for landscaping as well. Some acreage of the Lafarge quarry property has been reserved for wild life in partnership with the National Wildlife Federation. Also, located at the quarry is an Aggregate Lab and business office. Testing of Lafarge products takes place at the lab as well as testing for other agencies, state departments, etc. The lab also is the site of cutting-edge research and development, conducted by a team that includes a resident geologist. Materials are cured onsite and tested to check PSI standards, etc. The adherence to safety rules and regulations leaves a strong impression on quarry visitors, as does the cleanliness of the lab and even the quarry. Lafarge runs a tight ship to produce its highly regarded products. Take a look through the images from the visit to learn more from our visit.

That was a mouthfull. So, I attempted a Arrogant Bastard clone, but due to some rust (a few months off), some equipment problems (thermometer) and some stupid stuff by me, I screwed it up bad. I ended up mashing at too high of a temp, used way too much water, and was lazy with my yeast. So, now I have a hoppy brown/amber that has stalled at 1.020. I've kind of given up on the idea of actually getting what I intended to get out of this, so what I'm thinking of is transferring it to a carboy I'm not using an pitching some Brett C. Does anyone think a beer like this, with 80 IBU's, will do well, or am I best off not even bothering and trying to re-start my normal fermentation? I figure with some long term aging, I should be able to get rid of a significant portion of the hop characteristics, so it may not be an issue. What is your take?
Primary: Exam Brown Ale Primary: Unknown Mead Secondary: Matt's Saison Carbing: Raspberry Apple Cider 333 Enjoying: Lazy Ass Orange Pale Ale, Belgian Grand Cru, Belgian Dubble, Cherry Stout, Demonstration IPA On Deck: Black IPA
Wild Devil is basically Hop Devil fermented, at least partially, with Brett. I think that's a great beer! If all you do is to add Brett (and not Pedio or "lambic blend" or anything), you shouldn't have to age it very long for a nice beer. It will probably develop differently as it ages but I think you'd probably be OK to drink it young.
I brewed a saison that I kegged at 1.014 and then decided I didn't like it that much. I transferred it back to a carboy before it had a chance to carbonate and added dregs from two bottles of Orval . After two months it went down to 1.006. It does have the some brett flavors. What's weird to me is that it still tastes pretty sweet. I'd say give it a go can't hurt.
You could add brett to half the batch and add bourbon to the other half? Both could take care of the sweetness but in different ways. I like the Brett qualities in hoppy ales. When they are young they are more subtle but after 6-8 months they offer a nice balance to the hops.
Thanks for the tips. I'm going to take care of it now.

I've seen press photos of the M time and time again, but I was absolutely floored when I approached this M37S in the parking garage the other night. Admittedly, I thought there was a technological glitch; my key fob kept flashing the lights on what I swore (from a distance) was a Jaguar XF. An odd mistake, perhaps, but the two are similar -- swoopy, midsize luxury sedans that help redefine each brand.
Admittedly, I'll give the nod to the M37S. Both interior and exterior design teams have hit the ball out of the park; the cabin fits and feels as good as it looks. I was just as enthralled with how the car drove-sure, the VQ is aging without grace, but it's more than happy to dish out considerable power, and the seven-speed automatic is impeccably smooth. Concerned about fuel economy? The econ mode does a great job with not only providing the accelerator pedal with weighted resistance, but it also dramatically changes the transmission's behavior -- I rarely saw the tachometer sweep above 3300 rpm while accelerating up to 45 mph.
I will side with Joe -- the adaptive steering rack can feel vague and non-linear. Apart from that, I have no complaints. If you're in the market for either a 5-series or an XF, take a good hard look at the M; chances are you'll be as impressed as I was.

I bought this portable DVD player a couple of years ago. It worked fine for about 10 months and then 1 day the screen broke. It showed horizontal lines running across it but no actual pictures. I took it to Sony to mend and they did - it comes with a 12 month warranty. However it took them 1 month to mend. When i got it back it worked for 2 more months then broke again - same problem as before. This time they told me the repair would cost £80 - virtually the price for a brand new… Read Full Review

What are your methods to prevent transplant shock for tomato plants that you've started? I've found that the intense desert heat, high winds and cold nights are absolute misery for tomatoes.
Also... please list any other tomato growing tricks that you have learned for producing tomatoes in the desert. I really would love to get my beefsteak tomatoes to produce this year... thank you so much!!! |

Well you're right that the desert heat, wind, and cold nights are hard on transplants, and I would add intense sunlight and low humidity! I live above the desert proper, where of the above list the only thing we don't get at transplanting time is quite so much heat, but the sunlight is even more intense due to the elevation (around 7,000)....So here's what I do: 1. First of all make absolutely sure the plants are fully hardened off by setting them in their pots outside for a week or two. Gradually move them from a sheltered spot to a more exposed one over this time. I've never lost a plant following these basic considerations, and I've seen plenty of other people's transplants wilting away. This underscores the importance of the first step -- hardening off. Good luck with your tomatoes this year! |

The 5 gallon water container trick is perfect... thank you!!! My plants will love that at night and on really windy days. :) |
on the right track. Our big beef were 7 feet tall and 8 ft around with 100s of to's. But ours were in the patio surrounded by 12 inch thick 4 ft tall stucco walls and the house on one side. A wall makes a huge difference. |
