If you want a silent case, but one which is cheaper

be an alternative?
Regarding heatsink, thermalright hr-02 looks really promising.
It might not be good enough to run passively, although it is supposed
to, but the fins are wide, so you could get away with using a low-pressure
fan such as a noctua uln, which is extremely quiet running at 400rpm.
In case you can't get hold of it yet, you could just use the one
which is included with the CPU until hr-02 is in store.
Also, I would buy one harddrive at 1GB instead of two at 500GB.
Harddrives these days are so fast anyway, that you probably don't
need to run RAID or anything for multitracking. (Even the
slowest HD should be more than fast enough.)
In your setup, the harddrive is also likely to make the most
noise. (not because the ones you have picked is noisy, quite
the contrary, but because the other parts should be quite silent)

Lifetime of fund-raising for Stafford Save the Children volunteer
Posted: June 22, 2014
|NAME: Audrey Betteridge AGE: 85 HOME: Stafford FAMILY: Two daughters, two grandchildren and six great-grandchildren OCCUPATION: Save the Children volunteer and former regional representative WHERE WERE YOU BORN? I was born in Great Haywood, one of six children. WHAT WAS YOUR UPBRINGING LIKE? It was lovely. Living in a village we had lots of freedom, which children just don't have now. We moved to Stafford to a small holding in Doxey when I was in my last year of primary school and I went to St Leonard's School, then Riverway Girls' School and Rodbaston College. TELL US A CHILDHOOD MEMORY. I remember when I first started school in Great Haywood we used to have to put our heads on the tables in the afternoon to go to sleep as it was nap time. WHAT DID YOU WANT TO DO WHEN YOU LEFT SCHOOL? I wanted to work with children but my dad wouldn't have it. Instead I worked on the small holding. HOW DID THINGS PROGRESS? The Second World War broke out and I was in the Land Army. I was based in Harrogate and we did all sorts of farm work, it was really hard work too. Later on I had a letter from the Queen thanking me. I met my husband Gordon, who was in the Royal Navy, and we got married and eventually had two daughters Susan and Sarah. HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED WITH GIRL GUIDING? I was a brownie and guide as a girl, then eventually became a helper and a guider. I ended up being division commissioner and really enjoyed it. Guiding was a big part of my life and very rewarding. I had a wonderful time and a lot of laughs. Even now I see people who were brownies and guides years ago and are now grandparents themselves. WHAT PROMPTED YOUR INVOLVEMENT WITH SAVE THE CHILDREN? In the 1960s I saw an advert asking for people interested in helping children to set up a Save the Children branch. I went to the meeting and we set up a Stafford fund and had so many helpers. The first shop I set up was in Lichfield Road and it was such a pokey little place. I asked Lord Lichfield to open it and he did. When we moved into Crabbery Street he also opened that shop. We had some fun in that shop. I got the till from a place in Stone and my sister and I had to bring it back to Stafford on a bus. It was like the one from Open All Hours. We must have looked such a site. But I had so many friends volunteering and we raised a lot of money over the years. WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR PROUDEST MOMENT? I am so lucky. Being involved with Save the Children and guiding has been wonderful. I was invited to Buckingham Palace through my work with the charity and met Princess Anne in my capacity as area representative for Save the Children. I am proud that the shop is still going in Crabbery Street and has just celebrated its 25th anniversary. I am still very much involved and work there every other Monday morning. CAR: Volkswagon HOBBIES: Reading, gardening and watching football. MUSIC: Beethoven HOLIDAY DESTINATION: Greece NEWSPAPER: Daily Mail FOOD & DRINK: Steak & red wine BOOK: Anything by Georgette Heyer, also Joanna Trollope and Jill Mansell PIN-UP: My husband Gordon LOVE/HATE: I love most people/Unkind people

Lacey Banghard: Topless Archive - All Of Her Strip Pictures And Videos!
Hometown: Bedford
Bra Size: 26GG

Facebook: Lacey Banghard
We'll get it out of the way, yes, Lacey Banghard is her real name. According to the all-knowing internet, when her Grandparents arrived from India, their surname was written down as 'Banghard' and hence started the Banghard dynasty.
She says that she repeatedly gets the same rude joke about her surname, although some, more creative people, opt to hilariously call her 'bang tidy' or similar.
Lacey's career started in 2011 when she entered and won The Sun's Page 3 idol to be their new Page 3 glamour girl. In the last two years has featured in some lovely boobtastic photoshoots, galleries and videos for ZOO.
Armed with a wonderful peachy bum and an 26GG boobs, and standing at 5' 1" - Lacey is a little firecracker, with an epic pair of jubblies.
In January 2013, Lacey Banghard entered the Celebrity Big Brother house, so we hope to expect lots of footage of her in skimpy bikinis and even less.

5 TV Shows That Aren't On DVD – And Should Be
Channel Guide By Amber Humphrey on May 30, 2012 | Comments (16)With fall shows wrapped, Mad Men and Game of Thrones winding down, and the Louie and True Blood season premieres still weeks away, it's the perfect time to curl up in front of your television set or computer (which actually seems really uncomfortable) and indulge in a little vintage TV series binge. While most of your old favorites are probably available to you on DVD, Netflix, or Hulu, several noteworthy classics inexplicably and unjustly aren't. In some cases, no one even had the foresight to record every single episode back when they originally aired and then do their duty to mankind by illegally uploading the series onto YouTube or selling bootleg copies through shady-looking websites and, honestly, that's just infuriating. If Emily's Reasons Why Not – a 2006 Heather Graham snoozer that only aired one episode – is on DVD, then surely the following superior series should be released.

Hi Pete, Bless you for making this site--what a huge help it has been!After days reading your blog, we bought the Seaview Pines Plush last night, arrives this week. The sales person suggested a $100 mattress protector/pad but my husband said no thinking we already have one on current bed. What we already have is a slightly padded poly-blend basic mattress pad. What do you suggest for protecting the mattress?
Thank you so much.
Hi Elizabeth. The purpose of the mattress pad is to protect the fabric. If your mattress pad does that, then you don't need a new one. If you do need a new one, you can probably pick one up at TJ Maxx for half that $100 price.

My partner and I spent 3 nights at 6 Oak Haven and had a fabulous time. The hosts were friendly, hospitable and created scrumptious breakfasts. It so happened that the chemistry between us, the hosts and the 2 other couples there at the same time was amazing and we had lots of laughs. Thank you for making our stay so amazing and we will see you next year for sure and perhaps in the company of the other Internet Lovers!!!

My husband and I recently enjoyed a stay at Oak Haven. I had read favorable reviews, so my expectations were high. And I was not disappointed. Dennis and Christine could not have done anything more to make us feel welcome or more comfortable. A great experience! Claudia Jaggers Centerville, PA

You couldn't ask for a nicer place with an outstanding couple running it. The food was way beyond expectations and the help with directions of where to go and what to see.... bottom line... 2nd to none

My boyfriend and I just got back from Niagara-on-the-Lake. It was our first trip to the Niagara area and we were really looking forward to a relaxing vacation. From the moment we walked into Oak Haven, Dennis and Christine made us feel like we were at home. They loaded us up with maps, coupons for events, restaurant advice, suggestions for where to visit, and pointed us to the perfect area for watching the sunset over Lake Ontario. Our room was comfortable, clean, and all the little details were taken care of right down to the bathrobes, ipod charger, and wine opener. The breakfasts were outstanding! The ingredients were fresh and tasty, and they helped to keep us satisfied during several days of sight seeing. During our stay we enjoyed crepes, fruit tartes with quiche, french toast with baked peaches and turkey bacon, and other yummy surprises. Their gardens complete with gazebos and water fountains were the perfect place to relax with a bottle of wine after a long day of walking. I honestly can't say enough about Oak Haven. It was a short distance from Niagara Falls, and only a two minute ride into the beautiful town of Niagara-on-the-Lake. Set among endless wineries, it is It is the perfect getaway! It doesn't get much better than this!

After five nights at Oak Haven, we left feeling truly spoiled. Christine and Dennis provided us with a spotless well-decorated bedroom with its own full bath (again spotless with ample fresh towels daily), gourmet breakfasts that changed each day and much more. The more included friendly sound advice and suggestions that suited our needs (as opposed to the one-idea-fits-all variety) including maps and pamphlets, coordination of bookings and purchases (such as a wine tour, local fruit), loan of their mountain bikes for trail riding, facilitation of our evening of wine & cheese in their gazebo, and use of their living & sitting rooms for reading or just having a cup of tea.

Oak Haven provided a delightful place to relax while attending the Shaw Festival. Christine and Dennis started our days with a variety of gourmet breakfasts. They create a friendly atmosphere which guest pickup on making breakfast a time of sharing and good humor. A special treat was tea available throughout the day and after the theatre. Christine and Dennis seem to be able to offer their guests what they need, special diet, a dinner suggestion, event info, etc. but most important is their friendliness.

This was our first time to a bed & breakfast and it was an excellent place to be at! It was very cozy, comfortable and quiet. Christine and Dennis were great hosts and very helpful and gave us lots of info as to what to do, places to visit and restaurants to eat at. It was a great experience for us and we would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get away for a relaxing time. Thanks a bunch! The McClains Wyoming, ON

we were late arriving the phone was left for us to call. they arrived very quickly & were concerned re: if we had supper. We left early one morning & were not going to be there for breakfast. They packed us a breakfast to go. It was raining, they loaned us rain coats. The night we arrived Christine took us to watch the sunset & took our picture for us. She then took us around town to show us where to park & where places were to go in the am. You can't advertise hospitality. They are very gracious hosts. We plan to return to this home.

Japanese text in xterm
I have compiled my xterm with unicode support, but I'm not sure where to go from here. The Gentoo wiki suggests a font called terminus, which I have tried to use with the '-fn' parameter, but my terminal certainly does not look any different (and since my console is set to use terminus, I know what it looks like, so I expect it to look different).
I've followed every guide I can find online, and tried rvxt-unicode, mlterm, and kterm all to no avail. Because the squares show up, I suspect it's a font issue, but I'm not super experienced in dealing with xterm fonts.
Any suggestions or leads?

I really know nothing about Japanese, but my urxvt displays it just fine. I don't know how the things are currently with xterm... I think that it installs another binary called uxterm, you might have better luck with that. Or maybe 'xterm -u', the two might be equivalente, I suppose.
As long as your locale supports utf8 and you are using a font that can display all the characters, it should be ok. But no font is that complete, here is where font substitution is relevant, I think.
I don't think it has anything to do with input methods, since I haven't set up anything on that regard, and everything works. XIMs are only useful to input these ideograms, but not to display them.
For example, this is a shot I just made of my urxvt. I pasted a random text from a japanese web site (no idea what it is about, I can't understand it ). Pasted it in nano, and then displayed the file with tail on my urxvtc. It just works. I didn't set anything for japanese on my system.
Note, however, that you need utf8 support in your terminal, but also in the app you use to save the files. That is, if the file is encoded incorrectly, the it is corrupted forever and you will not be able to display the original contents. In this case I used nano to save the file. I also use screen, which supports utf8 without problems.

Oops, I forgot the link to the screenshot:
- 02-11-2008 #4
I should perhaps have mentioned that I was using uxterm.
In any event, I installed rxvt, and that allows me to display Japanese text, but when I type it in via uim, it shows up as boxes until I hit enter to finalize it (uim works by showing you the kana as you type them, then letting you convert to kanji before finalizing). That may be the best I manage to get.
Thanks for the advice, though! It's annoying that I try using the same font with uxterm as with urxvt, and the former simply does not work. Grr.

Well, that is probably due to the same font substitution thingy I spoke of above. The problem with non-occidental charsets like this one, if that most font sets do not support them. So, if you look at my screenshot, for example, you will notice that my occidental bits are a regular DejaVu font, while the Japanesse ones are completely unrelated.
When a program like this can't find a given utf8 char on a given font, it goes searching though all the available ones, and it uses the first (usually) that it can find to represent that character.
So, the problem is not the font you are using, but probably the way that xterm and urxvt handle multiple charsets, utf8 and fonts.
Well, that is the "why", I can't provide a solution, though. But xterm must have a way to configure different fonts for different charsets when using utf8, which is the set to rule them all :P
I hope it made any sense at all.

The Belgian singer Plastic Bertrand has admitted that the voice that gave the world the 1977 Euro-punk anthem Ça Plane Pour Moi was not his. Roger Jouret, the man behind the Plastic Bertrand persona, had previously denied that he was not the singer on the record. But in an interview with the Belgian newspaper Le Soir, he admitted it had been another singer – and laid the blame at the door of his former producer, Lou Deprijck. His admission came a day after a linguist commissioned by a judge concluded that the singer's accent did not match the voice on the record.

Mrs. Fields Cookies has announced plans to open its first flagship location in Broomfield, Colo., with construction slated to begin this month. Opening in Arista Place, the Mrs. Fields store is targeted for a March 2013 opening date and will serve its signature baked cookies, as well as offer a chocolate beverage bar with hot and cold drinks.
In addition to its vast selection of cookies, brownies and the chocolate bar, the location will feature a new store design that includes more relaxed seating options and a retail area where guests can order cookie gifts online. The corporate location will also serve as the company's training university for new franchisees. The enhanced design, completed by Fitch Design Services, will be utilized as the company's new brand identity and store design moving forward.
"This new location will be a great addition to the emerging development taking place at Arista Place," said Tim Casey, CEO of Mrs. Fields Cookies. "Mrs. Fields is an iconic brand and we feel that Arista is a great place to debut our new look, including the addition of innovative products, brand imagery focusing on the 35-year history and a unique retro design, all of which are key components included with the concept's 2013 brand re-launch program."
In addition to serving as the company's training university for new franchisees, the company's R&D headquarters will also utilize this location for all product innovation and development.
"We are excited to be able to utilize this new store as a way to test new products and interact with our guests for real-time insight and feedback on how to further grow the brand," Casey added.
The new Mrs. Fields Cookies store will be owned and operated by Mrs. Fields Famous Brands LLC, dba Famous Brands International, the parent company for the Mrs. Fields and TCBY brands that relocated its headquarters from Salt Lake City to Broomfield, Colo., in July. The company currently occupies the entire sixth floor at Arista Place employing over 35 people. This new store will mark the fifth Mrs. Fields location in Colorado.

Tips And Tactics To Get kids interested in Healthy eating
As a child, Judith Wylie-Rosett refused to eat any food she couldn't drown in ketchup and pickle relish.
"A lot of things just seemed repulsive to me," recalls Wylie-Rosett, Ed.D., R.D. — now head of behavioral and nutritional research in the department of epidemiology and population health at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in The Bronx, NY.
Her mother outmaneuvered her by increasing the number of foods served at meals so that there would be something her finicky eater was sure to like — or would discover she liked, once she tried it. "You don't want to ... make food a battleground," says Wylie-Rosett, who has devised treatment programs to address childhood obesity and type 2 diabetes — a metabolic disorder once found almost exclusively in adults, that increases cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.
Ideally, children should learn to make healthy food choices at an early age so good eating habits have taken hold by the time they leave the nest. Here are some strategies to help accomplish this goal:
First-time visitors are often struck by the quietness of Montessori classrooms. The secret to their success: a structured environment where children are free to select their work. The trick is that only good choices are offered. You can achieve that quiet and order at the dinner table by offering a wide variety of nutritious foods and letting children choose what and how much to eat: Bananas or strawberries? Yogurt or a cheese stick?
"I often tell families...that the one place you have complete control...is what's available at home," says Stephen R. Daniels, M.D., Ph.D., M.P.H., pediatrician-in-chief at The Children's Hospital in Aurora, CO, who treats children with two other obesity-associated conditions — high cholesterol and high blood pressure. If the home contains only healthy choices, it's easier for parents to give the child more autonomy, he says.
Another potential battleground involves overfeeding, which occurs when parents mistakenly believe there is a certain amount of food that kids must eat at each meal. Appetite varies from child to child, day to day and even meal to meal. As long as kids are growing appropriately, they will be fine, assures Daniels.
Insisting on a "clean your plate" policy can send the message that a child should keep eating after becoming full. Worse, if a parent promises "dessert, if you clean your plate — that sets up the wrong kind of dynamic around food," Daniels says.
Studies show kids need to try a new food up to a dozen times before they decide whether they like it. Too many parents give up after the first or second try, says Daniels. A younger child who grimaces when trying a new food may be reacting to its novelty rather than its taste, he explains.
Parents can avoid power struggles if they keep their cool when the child doesn't want to try a new food. If a child gets attention for avoiding new things, it can reinforce the very behavior you want to prevent, notes Daniels. In addition, parents need to understand that different people have different taste buds, Wylie-Rosett says. Something that tastes fine to one person might taste bitter to someone else.
To increase success with new foods, limit snacking, especially in the hour before meals — for instance, offer only raw vegetables to munch on before supper.
Ads for sugary, high-fat foods are everywhere — on TV, on Web sites, even on the floor of the grocery store — and the more ads kids see for junk and fast food, the more insistent they become about wanting you to buy them.
Many junk foods are intentionally placed at a child's eye level — particularly at checkout counters — Wylie-Rosett says. She advises avoiding power struggles by traveling the perimeter of the store, where the produce and dairy departments are usually located, and steering clear of the center aisles, where many of the processed foods are found.
Use your shopping excursion as an opportunity to teach kids how to read nutritional labels, compare the amount of sugar, fat or sodium on two similar products and give their opinion on the one that's the healthier option. And enlist their help in scanning items at the self-checkout lane. Not only their hands will stay busy, but you are less likely to find display stands stuffed with candy and chips, says Wylie-Rosett.
Children eat with their eyes, their hands and their mouths. Make food more appealing by discussing the textures, shapes and colors on the plate. "The most wholesome way to do that is to get kids involved in cooking," Wylie-Rosett says. One of her pet peeves is that children often learn only how to bake, not how to make healthy fruit and vegetable dishes. Kids enjoy making recipes and are curious to taste their creations, Wylie-Rosett says, adding that cooking gives young people "pride of ownership." [See pages 30–38 for recipes the whole family will enjoy.]
Daniels suggests having grandparents and other relatives help out as "celebrity chefs." Relatives who need to make dietary changes to help keep heart disease or diabetes in check provide a concrete cause-and-effect link between eating habits and health. "If the whole family is working on [a loved one's healthy diet], I think the chances of success are that much higher," he says.
Wylie-Rosett also sees kitchen duty as a "teachable moment" in good manners — once they begin to appreciate how much work goes into preparing a meal, they will understand the importance of refusing something they do not want to eat politely, thanking the cook for his or her efforts.
If you start young, your kids will tend to make better food choices even when they're teens. "It's a rite of passage to eat junk food, but it doesn't become a central focus," Wylie-Rosett says. While it's never too late to change your family's eating habits for the better, it gets harder as kids get older.
A parent can find loads of opportunities for children to learn about, and practice, healthy food choices — if he or she knows where to look:

Reviews for Cheeseburger Soup
Sort By :
"I signed up just to rate this soup. By far the best cheeseburger soup recipe I've tried. To say that it is a family favorite would be an understatement. My family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers love it. I added a couple of extra things, a little paprika and garlic, and it really hits the spot."
"This soup is amazing. I will definitely make this again. The ideas in the other reviews are something I will try. You won't be dissappointed."
"My husband ate three bowlfuls & indicated it was okay. I substituted 2 T. potato starch for the flour, used 1 1/2 T. Better Than Boullion Beef Base & shredded cheddar cheese with half and half & milk."
"Never liked the sound of this. Until i tried it. This recipe is a good starting point. I almost always change things to my taste. I have used leftover grilled cheeseburgers in this and the flavor that is added from the grilling was amazing! Also have used some smoked cheddar i had on hand. Or some spicy nacho cheese from a can. I garish with your regular burger toppings tomatoes pickles A1 fried onions mushrooms. Great soup!"
"This is a hearty and easy go to recipe for my family. Even my picky eater children like this. I substituted cheddar for velveeta and prefer the beef broth to the chicken broth after trying it both ways."

Flute World
America's #1 flute specialty house since 1983.
A Robot for a Friend composed by Ryan Carter (2014)Written for Flute with or without fixed mediaIncludes SCORE ONLYMy program notes rarely describe the piece to which they are attached; I hope that the sound of a composition sufficiently explains itself. Instead, I use program notes to share what was on my mind as I composed a work. I offer these thoughts for those who are curious. A recurrent theme in my work is the influence of emerging technologies in our experience of music, a broad subject that I explore in specific ways. A Robot for a Friend is inspired by an experience I had searching for electroacoustic flute music on Spotify, where I came across an ambiguously presented Pasacaglia for flute and tape, for which no composer was listed. Later I came to learn that the piece was composed by a 20th century composed Aldo Clementi. In this score, the term "robot" does not refer to a human-shaped metal object that walks and talks. Instead, it refers to the algorithms that extract features from sound, select what information to display, and suggest what music we should listen to. I have a mostly friendly relationship with these robots, but sometimes they lie.

[[caption-width-right:300: Starting on the top left and going by row, Maru, Ohkura, Yoko, Subaru, Yasu, Ryo, Hina]]
Kanjani8 is a Japanese boy band that was formed in 2002, and debuted in 2004. They were formed and debuted by Johnnys and Associates, and, as many other groups in the company, have enjoyed success. This, however, took them longer to achieve than the average group, as they were rising from the then struggling Kansai branch.
The group consists of Shibutani Subaru, Nishikido Ryo, Yasuda Shota, Ohkura Tadayoshi, Maruyama Ryuhei, Yokoyama You and Murakami Shingo. Uchi Hiroki used to be the group's eighth member, but was kicked out of the group after he was caught drinking underage.
Notable Tropes:
* AmbiguouslyGay: Yasu. Just.... Yasu. Everyone mocks him about it and it doesn't help that he plays it up. A lot.
** Maru's been playing this up more than Yasu has, what with his "confessing" his admiration for {{Arashi}}'s Ninomiya Kazunari and Ikuta Toma. And that one time where he wanted Yoko to kiss him.
* {{Adorkable}}: Maru, Yasu, Ryo, Hina. Everyone, really.
* AssShove: ...we're looking at you, Subaru.
* BackFromTheDead: Generally, someone dies in their concert skits. Be it one member, or every single one of them, they ''will'' comes back, no questions asked. Even if it does require sparkle dust.
* BadassAdorable: Yasu, Maru, Subaru...
** you can say this for all the members when they were Juniors, though.
* BigEater: Ohkura, Maru and Yoko, the Glutton Trio. Big time.
** To the point where [[WhatTheHellHero Subaru and Ryo yelled at Maru for eating so much during an MC and Subaru called him a fatty]]
* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: Maru (boke) and Yasu (tsukkomi), Hina and EVERYONE. In fact, he's the one Johnny's talent who could get away with tsukkomi'ing/dope slapping a ''senpai''.
** totally averted though, whenever it involves Subaru as the tsukkomi.
* {{Boyband}}: Obvious enough, but they will mock the fact they are.
* ChristmasEpisode: Their variety shows. For example, the short lived Kanpani had an episode where the perfomed christmas songs, and ate food with something not so pleasant inside it in the middle.
* ChristmasSongs: Eight of them, nine if you count the winter remix songs.
* CryCute: This is part of the reason why most people love seeing Ryo in dramas.
** Maru and Ryo during the Hohoemi Date.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: In one of their concert skits, Ryo just went and died because he loved everyone too much, Subaru died by laughing, Maru killed Yasu with a plastic mallet, and he killed himself with it too. Then again, they did get better...
* CuteLittleFangs: In the sense of the real life yaeba, Hina has these.
* TheIdiotFromOsaka: They live and ''breathe'' this trope.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Ryo and sometimes Subaru.
* LovableSexManiac: Pretty much every member, especially Ryo "NICE OPPAI" and Subaru, the [[ItMakesSenseInContext "bean-throwing hentai-sama"]].
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Nishikido. Freakin'. Ryo.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Murakami "Hina" Shingo, Maruyama "Maru" Ryuhei, Yokoyama "You" or "Yoko" Kimitaka
** In the case of Yoko: when he joined the agency, Johnny Kitagawa couldn't read the kanji for his name and Johnny has/had a reputation for referring to people as "you" instead of "anata, kimi" etc., so Johnny told him that "today, you will be YOU". But no one calls him that, opting for "Yoko" instead.
* PuppyDogEyes: All of the members, really, but mainly Ryo...that is when he's not being a creep.
* RummageSaleReject: Yasuda Shota, the fans are looking at you.
* ShrinkingViolet: Despite being outgoing and loud on TV, behind the scenes members have stated that Subaru and Yoko are pretty much this, to the point where Subaru had trouble making new friends outside of their agency.
* SuperSentai: They assume the role of an obvious SuperSentai homage in a series of performances at their concerts as ''Eight Ranger/Eito Rangers''. The members have the following roles:
** [[color:red: Red Ranger]]: Shibutani Subaru
** [[color:gold: Yellow Ranger]]: Nishikido Ryo
** [[color:orange: Orange Ranger]]: Maruyama Ryuhei
** [[color:blue: Blue Ranger]]: Yasuda Shota
** [[color:green: Green Ranger]]: Ohkura Tadayoshi
** [[color:purple: Purple Ranger]]: Murakami Shingo
** Black Ranger: Yokoyama You

Addicted, me...lol I knew about Norma making a post so I thought after all that time in the hospital I would have a little fun and check it out. I can only sit here for short periods at a time, the chair is most uncomfortable, so I figured a HI, I am back....would be OK. OK....details...Started having some chest pains at work on Sunday the 7th, some of the worst things I had ever felt before, but not like the proverbial elephant on your chest. Rich was out on vacation and had dropped me off at work so I called him to come get me and take me to the E.R. Spent that night, was supposed to have a stress test on Monday, that got put off and cancelled when I had the same pains again on Monday night. Went in for Catherization on Tuesday...5 blockages 3 of them at 90%, Gee... I guess that is why I had the surgery on Wednesday All went well, now I just need to recouperate, and let me tell you it is not the chest incision that is the worst right now, but rather the leg where they took the grafts. Swollen about 3x normal size and sore. OK, gonna go, I think the pain pill is kicking in Gerry |

Hi Gerry, I spend most of my time on the Antique Rose forum so maybe you don't know me, but I figure even a relative stranger's good wishes count for something, and you have mine. Hope you're making a good recovery. Congratulations on getting to the hospital in time! There IS something to be said for modern technology, isn't there? Melissa |
- Posted by irish_rose_grower z7 LI NY (My Page) on Sat, Jan 27, 07 at 9:31
Sending good wishes and prayers to Gerry for your continued good recovery. p.s. How are your roses doing:-) I'm sure that is reason to get well soon. lol Take care |
- Posted by gerry_wyomingpa z6 NEPA (My Page) on Mon, Jan 29, 07 at 9:19
Melissa, I agree, good wishes count no matter where they come from, thank you! Maureen, Not sure what is going on yet with some of them, but I guess I shall know soon. Most of them never made it outside, so the indoor method will be tested, good thing they are cuttings, just a bit more expendable than plants....shhhh....don't tell ANYONE I said that. Gerry |

Sunday, May 01
Ford Center
Attendance: 18,203
Oklahoma City, OK (Sports Network) - Zach Randolph came up big for Memphis again, posting 34 points and 10 rebounds as the Grizzlies defeated Oklahoma City, 114-101, in the opener of their second-round playoff series.
Randolph had 31 points and 11 rebounds on Friday, when Memphis closed out its Western Conference quarterfinal matchup against San Antonio.
It was a monumental victory for the Grizzlies, who had never won a playoff series before and made the Spurs the second No. 1 seed to fall in the first round since the best-of-seven format was instituted.
Randolph was strong once again Sunday, hitting 12-of-22 shots and making all nine free throws. Marc Gasol added 20 points and 13 boards as the Grizzlies, the surprise of this postseason, got off a strong series start. Game 2 is set for Tuesday, back at Oklahoma City Arena.
"Any time you win on the road in the playoffs, it's a steal," said Grizzlies head coach Lionel Hollins. "That's what we did. We came in here and we stole one."
Kevin Durant had 33 points and 11 rebounds to lead the fourth-seeded Thunder, who defeated Denver in five games in the first round and are considered by many to be a developing juggernaut in the West.
But they were out-played Sunday by the Grizzlies, who won three of the four matchups during the regular season, held a 52-38 advantage in points in the paint and forced 18 turnovers with tenacious defense.
Those stats reflected in Oklahoma City's individual performances. While Thunder forward Serge Ibaka had 16 points, 11 boards and five blocks, center Kendrick Perkins finished with two points and six rebounds in 29-plus minutes as he helped guard Randolph.
Additionally, point guard Russell Westbrook committed seven turnovers against six assists, and shot 9-of-23. He ended with 29 points and eight rebounds.
"It was my fault," Westbrook said. "I did not take care of the ball. It starts with me. I just have to take better care of the ball."
Oklahoma City trailed nearly the entire game, and held its largest lead when Westbrook hit a jumper 73 seconds into the game for a 4-2 edge.
But Randolph scored the next five, and Memphis held a slight lead for the rest of the quarter, finishing with a 28-24 edge.
The Grizzlies' bench helped them take control during a crucial stretch in the second. With Memphis already leading by seven, Shane Battier intercepted a bad pass with just under eight minutes to play, leading to a Darrell Arthur jumper that began a six-point burst.
Arthur blocked an Ibaka jumper at the other end, and Westbrook turned the ball over on Oklahoma City's next two touches. Sam Young then tipped in a shot before Randolph hit a fadeaway for a 45-32 advantage midway through the quarter.
"He's a good player," Thunder head coach Scott Brooks said. "We have to limit his touches and make the ones that he does get, tougher. We have to crowd the paint."
Memphis led by as many as 16 in the quarter, including when Tony Allen sank a layup during a sequence that typified Sunday's contest.
Gasol gained possession after Westbrook lost the ball, then passed to Mike Conley, who threaded a pass between two defenders for Allen, who finished the play for a 56-40 cushion.
The Thunder climbed within 57-47 at the break and closed within a possession several times early in the third.
They were still within striking distance when Nick Collison drove for a hook shot with 3:18 on the clock, making it a 75-71 contest. But they didn't score for the rest of the quarter, turning the ball over twice and missing five shots.
The dry stretch allowed the Grizzlies to increase their lead to 84-71 heading into the fourth, and they led by at least seven, and by as many as 17, during the final quarter.

A quarry is a type of open-pit mine from which rock or minerals are extracted.

The Refinance Index increased 21.0 percent from the previous week. The seasonally adjusted Purchase Index decreased 8.5 percent from one week earlier. The unadjusted Purchase Index decreased 8.3 percent compared with the previous week and was 37.1 percent lower than the same week one year ago. "After five weeks of steadily declining rates to yet another new low, borrowers who had been on the fence jumped off, which factored into refinance activity surging more than 20 percent," said Michael Fratantoni, MBA's Vice President of Research and Economics. "Refinance application volumes are now close to the highest level this year. Purchase activity remains generally weak, but applications for conventional purchase mortgages are now at their highest level since the beginning of May following the expiration of the tax credit."
"Last week saw a big jump in applications for FHA loans to purchase homes. We surmised that this was due to potential buyers wanting to beat the stricter FHA standards that went into effect October 4th. This conjecture was confirmed by the fact that this week FHA applications fell back to a level closer to the average seen over the past four months, "continued Fratantoni.
The four week moving average for the seasonally adjusted Market Index is up 3.0 percent. The four week moving average is down 0.3 percent for the seasonally adjusted Purchase Index, while this average is up 3.9 percent for the Refinance Index.
The refinance share of mortgage activity increased to 83.1 percent of total applications from 78.9 percent the previous week and is the highest refinance share since January 2009. The adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) share of activity decreased to 5.4 percent from 6.1 percent of total applications from the previous week.
The average contract interest rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages decreased to 4.21 percent from 4.25 percent, with points increasing to 1.02 from 1.00 (including the origination fee) for 80 percent loan-to-value (LTV) ratio loans. The 30-year contract rate is the lowest recorded in the survey, while the previous low was observed last week. The effective rate also decreased from last week.
The average contract interest rate for 15-year fixed-rate mortgages decreased to 3.62 percent from 3.73 percent, with points decreasing to 1.06 from 1.14 (including the origination fee) for 80 percent LTV loans. The 15-year contract rate is the lowest recorded in the survey, while the previous low was observed last week. The effective rate also decreased from last week.
The average contract interest rate for one-year ARMs decreased to 7.03 percent from 7.11 percent, with points increasing to 0.27 from 0.24 (including the origination fee) for 80 percent LTV loans.If you would like to purchase a subscription of MBA's Weekly Applications Survey, please contact MBA Research at (202) 557-2830 or email@example.com or click here.

Japanese automaker Honda has put some 2.2 million customers in the
United States on a security breach alert after a database containing
information on the owners and their cars was hacked, according to
The compromised list contained names, login names, e-mail addresses and
17-character Vehicle Identification Number--an automotive industry
standard--which was used to send welcome e-mail messages to customers
that had registered for an Owner Link account.
Another 2.7 million My Acura account users were also affected by the
breach, but Honda said the list contained only e-mail addresses. Acura
is the company's luxury vehicle brand.
According to Honda's notification e-mail to affected customers, the list
was managed by a vendor. All Things Digital suggested, but could not
confirm, that the vendor in question is e-mail marketing firm Silverpop
Systems, which has been linked with the recent hacking incidents
including that of fast-food giant McDonald's.

Hey guys! I'm new to the forum and I purchased a VFT from Walmart about 3 weeks ago. At first, I fed it a bug and the trap closed immediately. I've been keeping it on my back porch in approximately 50 to 60 degree F temperature and have been keeping its soil moist. Lately, the leaves have started to blacken and the traps no longer will respond to bugs touching their trigger hairs. The remaining leaves seem very sturdy and hearty. Is my plant dying or is it going dormant? Help!! I don't want my plant to die :( Thanks for your time :) |

are you watering your plant with distilled or purfieid water? i hope it's not tap water. these plants prefer the cleanest most purest type of water they can get since they live in habitats with acidic soils without any salts. Flytraps' traps can turn brown over time. LIke any plant, flytraps' leaves turn brown, blacken and die over time. The thing about flytraps bought at hardware stores is that their seasons can be confused so many times while they are being shipped to their final destinations; to the consumer. What type of water have you been watering it with? Is your plant growing outside all of the time? Anyway, just let us know how you ben growing your plant exactly. maybe the bug was too big for its trap. this happens most of the times. flytrap's prey must be 1 1/3 smaller than the trap in order to be fully consumed by the trap. if your temperatures do get pretty cold outside, it may be going dormant. Some of my plants are beginning to show signs of slow growth, since fall raises, the days aren't shorter as last years.. i grow my plants outside all year round. in a few days i am pretty sure they will become dormant. just reply how you been growing your plant. |

It's hard to tell from a written description. Hard to tell even if we had the plant in front of us. Either could be happening right now. We'll have to take a wait and see approach, in addition to the advice above. This is the time of year when the plant slows down. It does resopond to the stimuli - reduced photoperiod and lower temps. But it could be unhappy as well. |
My plant is growing outside in full sun for most of the day. I sadly have been watering it with tap water.. since reading your post I have switched to purified water and I hope it isn't too late. Do the traps normally not respond at all during dormancy? |
- Posted by petiolaris Neutral (My Page) on Mon, Oct 30, 06 at 11:18
Things either stop or slow down a whole lot, depending upon whether they are in a deeps sleep or not. A couple years ago I took my VFT out of the fridge in late February and placed it on a coldish window sill. I attempted to trigger a trap and to my surprise, it responded. I'd say it woke up in a hurry! As to the watering query, it depends upon the health of the individual plants. You'll just have to wait it out. |

Spring time wouldn't be normal if there wasn't rain. What is so wonderful that after the spring rain you witness streaks of sunshine radiating to the earth. Occasionally the skies open to an array of brightly colored clouds painted with Gods finger. And off in the distance another storm builds, skys darken and the wind tickles the trees. With the sun still warming the soil waves of rain pass over the valley. Steam rises to meet the rain and the earth smiles with the passing of the clouds.
Here on the farm, business is as usual. Servicing equipment, trees are trimmed, working in the greenhouse planting of thousands of seeds, baby chicks hatch and the anticipation of another harvest is all that is discussed. The fields are too wet to plant, but raised beds are recreated for early plantings. Leaves and debris are raked and piled for future composting. Birds are present taking up residence in the nearby houses and leftover nest.
Yet something is missing. A member of the farm...Papa
As the rain fell today a special man was missed. Papa. Today a year ago he left us for an everlasting life in heaven. Today as the rain fell he was smiling watching the progress being done here on the farm. Today as the rain fell the sun would peek out inviting us out to enjoy the tapestry in the clouds. Today as the rain fell there were rainbows. Today as the sun set in the west, we all smiled remembering the life of Papa Glen. He touched our lives.The oranges and yellows with scattered peach rays bring us the warmth of his kindness and love. His memory will always be with us. His legacy lives on in his family. Thank you Lord for sharing this man with us.
