Ron Paul Is The ONLY Politician I've Ever Supported !
And he just may be the only politician I ever will support, because the other politicians, at every level, don't seem to have the general publics best interests in their political agenda.

Whose interests do you think
Whose interests do you think Rand Paul has? And why do you think so?
I'm just curious.
Also, What about local politicians, anyone worth getting behind? What about running for office yourself? Would you have the people's interests?

Thanks to MrVg247, we get to see the E3 trailer for The Walking Dead: 400 Days (DLC for The Walking Dead Season One).
This new content will be an additional episode to the first season, and introduces five new characters that journalists are expecting to be included in the second season; their stories will be centered around a truck stop in central Georgia. The player can play through the five separate stories in any order within the episode. The episode will use information from the player's saved game from the first season, and decisions made within 400 Days will continue into season two. The content will be made available for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, iOS devices, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 versions of the game, and a special bundled edition of the PlayStation Vita will include the full season one and 400 Days. The new content is expected to be released in later this year.
What do you Big Kids think? Are you gonna get this new content?
Very good

For reasons yet to be determined, the man then walked into the travel lane and was struck by a tractor-trailer unit. He was taken to UMass Memorial Medical Center — University Campus, where was treated for his injuries. He is expected to survive, state police said. The cause of the crash, as well as the initial reason the man pulled over his car, are under investigation.

Interesting how most people seem to live in places I would consider where pizza is more popular. We have a couple of pizzerias I know that are Italian owned, but a lot of the food culture has been monotone up until recently.
You wanna bet.... Durham, North Carolina (2hrs. away from Mayberry)

Basic browser translator
Harness the power of Google Translate with this simple add-on.
Google Translation Bar is a handy add-on for the Chrome Web browser that lets users translate Web pages between a variety of languages. It doesn't have as many features as other translators we've seen, but it's still a quick and easy way to get translations of fairly high quality.
The add-on integrates well with Chrome, appearing as a small icon within the address bar. When the icon is clicked, a banner appears across the top of the Web page offering translation options. Translating couldn't be easier; users simply select the desired output language--there are 53 to choose from--and the page is translated within a few seconds. We especially like that the translated text appears right on the Web page, leaving the page's formatting intact; it's exactly like reading the original page, but in the language of your choice. This extension doesn't have as many features as some other Chrome add-ons that also use the Google Translate service--it doesn't seem able translate sites automatically, for example--and in fact the Options button that is present in most browser add-ons is grayed out in Google Translation Bar. There's not much of anything you can do to customize the user experience, but if you're not looking for too many features, this extension works just fine. As with all automated translators, the translations aren't perfect, but the Google Translate service is probably the best free, browser-integrated option you're going to find.
Google Translation Bar is free. It installs and uninstalls without issues. We recommend this add-on to all users.

The number of U.S. retail health clinics stands to double over the next three years with the influx of newly insured patients under health care reform, according to a report from management consulting firm Accenture.
Retail News Breaks
LAS VEGAS – The number of U.S. retail health clinics stands to double over the next three years with the influx of newly insured patients under health care reform, according to a report from management consulting firm Accenture.
Accenture said Wednesday that between now and 2015, the number of retail clinics will grow 20% to 25% annually, doubling from 1,418 to 2,868.
The consultancy released the report, titled "Retail Medical Clinics: From Foe to Friend?", at the annual America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) Institute 2013 in Las Vegas.
According to the report, the rising number of retail health clinics and walk-in medical facilities located in pharmacies and retail chains will drive an estimated $800 million in annual cost savings by 2015 and add capacity for 10.8 million patient visits per year, compared with 5.1 million in 2011.
Accenture's analysis also noted that the number of patient visits at retail clinics is expected to account for 10% of non-primary care outpatient visits by the end of 2015.
"Despite that initial growth of retail clinics was halted short of market expectations in 2009, health care reform will trigger a significant demand from millions of newly insured patients," Kaveh Safavi, managing director for Accenture's North America health business, said in a statement. "The convergence of retail convenience with walk-in care services will provide a 'release valve' for strained health systems as they handle the influx of new patients."
Retail clinics experienced a five-year trend of rapid growth from 2003 to 2008, ranging from 50% to 92% each year. But growth in the sector stalled thereafter, falling to just 2% annually from 2008 to 2012.
"Although primary care physicians and hospitals once regarded retail clinics as a business threat, in a post-reform landscape they are viewed as critical to facilitating future growth," Safavi pointed out. "In fact, retail clinics will reduce capacity constraints by referring lower-acuity patients to clinics while ensuring hospitals have capacity for more complex cases."
A two-year retail clinic growth rate of nearly 15% during 2011 and 2012 represented a "reversal of fortune" for the sector, the Accenture report said. Factors now fostering the growth of retail clinics, according to the report, include affiliations between retail clinics and hospitals, partnerships between retail clinics and primary care doctors, and improved relations between retail clinics and insurers and health plan providers.
It's estimated that starting in 2014, under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act health reform law, more than 30 million Americans previously lacking health insurance will be able to buy health plans through state insurance exchanges or get coverage via broader Medicaid eligibility.

Hello everyone!
One of the great pleasures I partake of when I put together a book is working on the cover concept. Despite the old saying, people do judge a book by its cover, and I have learned that an attractive, interesting and different cover can generate interest about the text behind the cover.
I have been working with a talented artist by the name of Mike Collins on a cover design for The Devil's Nightmare, my upcoming paranormal thriller novel. I want to give you all a sneak peak into the creative process that is going on with the cover, with this early sketch of the concept. Keep in mind this is very rough (we have moved beyond this), but this gives you a first look of the Purple Man character in the novel.
Once you see the finished product, I think you will be impressed with how far Mike has taken this rough concept and made it something beautiful, interesting and polished. What you see in the drawing is the mysterious Purple Man, who is the main villain in The Devil's Nightmare.
As the book nears publication, I will be letting everyone in on some more information about the Purple Man. I should mention that in the finished product, the Purple Man will be clothed, making him look quite different, but for now you're going to have to use your imagination.

Dum Dums Easter Bunny Craft
What could be more precious than Easter chicks, lambs, and, of course, BUNNIES? Gather your kids 'round the table, because they'll love making these adorable candy bunny rabbits using Dum Dum Pops.
Give 'em away as Easter treats, or simply enjoy making them for you're a fun crafting project - either way, these little guys are so cute we're pretty sure you won't ever want to eat them. This easy craft project is a great way to celebrate springtime!
Dum Dums Easter Bunny Craft
What you'll need:
• Assorted Dum Dum Pops in springtime colors
• 1" flat wooden hearts
• Wooden beads (Make sure the hole in the bead is big enough to accommodate a Dum Dum stick.) We used beads just slightly smaller than the Dum Dum Pop.
• White acrylic pant
• Foam brush
• White pipe cleaners
• Small pink pom poms
• White pom poms (in two sizes)
• Self-adhesive googly eyes
• Glue
How to make them:
1. Paint the wooden hearts and balls with white acrylic paint. These will be the bunny feet and the bunny heads.
2. Once dry, take a spring colored Dum Dum Pop and glue the top of it to a wooden heart. Make sure the top of the heart is showing - these are the "bunny feet."
3. Thread a bead onto Dum Dum Pop - this is the "head."
4. Affix eyes to the head. It's easiest if you use stick-on eyes, but you can also glue them on if you prefer. Also glue on a pink pom pom for the nose and two smaller white pom poms for the teeth.
5. Then glue on two larger white pom poms to either side of the Dum Dum Pop to make bunny arms.
6. Finally, take two 3" lengths of white pipe cleaner. Make a loop with each. These are the ears. We were able to stick the ends inside hole of the bead and secure with a small dab of glue.
And in just a few easy steps (or should we say hops?) you have adorable Easter bunny lollipop creations!
For even more fun, make our Candy Carrot Easter Crafts for your bunnies to munch on.

I'm preparing to migrate my studio to a PC based DAW situation. I'm trying to decide between Cubase and ProTools. The discussions I have read never mention whether or not the Pro Tools solution they endorse is the HD/Card assisted version (though I assume it probably is). My question is, is anybody running software only protools on a PC and happy with it? Or am I correct in assuming I'd be better off with Cubase?
It really depends on your needs Gregory. If you need the extended track counts and processing power offered by the HD version then it will be best, but if you are just mixing a lot or only recording 16-24 tracks at a time, then you certainly can go with a native based version. Actually the newer versions of ProTools all use native processing (non card based) extensively. So, if you are doing song demos or mixing, save your money and stay away from HD. If you are recording a film score and doing dialog replacement, foley sound effects and music layback, then HD is the call.
ok, thanks for the response.
Curious, why are you going the direction of running on a PC based system instead of a Mac?
Sorry, I didn't explain that well; I'm not migrating from a mac, but from an older analog/digital standaloneHD situation.
We have six Pro Tools HD systems (v184.108.40.206) and four Pro Tools LE systems on Windows. Very reliable and stable. We have not tested a Windows7 /v10 HDX or Native system yet.
I'm using PT9 native and you get 48 stereo tracks these days!! Plenty for just about anything, I submit.

Last week wasn't a great eating week for me. I still continued eat pretty healthy meals for the most part, but between meals I digressed quite a bit. Monday our neighbors came by with Girl Scout cookies and we were not going to turn them down. They are great neighbors, so we bought 4 boxes. Since I am at work more than I am at home, fortunately I haven't taken too big of a calorie hit because of this.

Fruit or growth?
Last spring I purchased and planted my first citrus tree, a Key Lime. I then 'lost' my first citrus tree because I did not fully understand the concept of cold hardy and one final frost came through and killed it (to trunk). It was then replaced by... a Persian lime, a tangerine (mandarin) and a Meyer lemon. Because naturally you should replace a lost plant with three others, right?
When purchased, the Persian and the Meyer both had blooms and both ended up bearing fruit. While they had fruit on them, the key lime, which I had put in a pot 'just in case' sprouted new branches and leaves (above the graft point) and grew fairly quickly to the point where I was pretty certain that it was going to bypass the Persian and Meyer in size. At the time I figured the fact that the other two were growing slower due to putting much of their energy into producing fruit. So in the interest of growing larger plants and waiting a year for fruit, I removed the lemons and limes.
Now that fall is here and winter is on its way, I look at my Key lime next to my Persian and it has definitely over-taken the Persian in size and it looks quite full and lush for a plant that was 'dead' in the spring. But it strikes me that even with 3/4 of the summer growing without fruit that the Persian still lagged behind in growth. The Meyer as well. They all got the same water and the Key lime actually got much less in the way of fertilizer due to being potted.
Was my decision to remove the fruit in lieu of growth in vain? In my readings I keep seeing that you should remove fruit and flowers from plants that you want to put their energy into foliage production, but it didn't seem to make much difference with these citrus plants. Also, while I have read about some people having multiple 'crops' on single Meyer trees and some even ever-bearing, mine only had blooms at purchase and never issued forth any new ones after removing the fruit. Is it possible that I interrupted a cycle by prematurely removing the fruit? Or could it just be an indication that it is a younger tree and isn't ready to fruit all that often. Or... do Meyer lemons have various cultivars that fruit at differing intervals? Actually, I think I will look that one up myself.
As always, thank you for your help!
Photos, photos, photos :-) Of all your trees, please. Sounds to me like you're doing your little trees a favor. It's fine to leave a few fruit on, if the tree is vigorous and you live in a mild climate (like I do). But, for areas that have more extremes in temps, you are doing you tree a favor by removing the fruit or at least most of it, so your brand new tree can establish itself in its new locale. Don't remove the blossoms, as that will just make the tree blossom more. Just remove the fruits. No, it will not interrupt the bloom cycles - lemons and limes tend to bloom frequently. They do have more main blooming/fruiting cycles, but will bloom and fruit nearly all year 'round. Your mandarin of course will normally bloom in the spring and provide fruit in the early winter to early spring (depending upon the variety). And young citrus often have off-cycle blooms and fruiting times, as they mature and settle in. And even mature citrus can have off bloom times due to extreme weather fluctuations. And of course it is perfectly natural and expected to replace one citrus with three, just ask anyone on this forum!

I will get you some pictures tomorrow. Between yesterday and today, all three got transplanted but seem to have taken it well. As of sundown, I have not seen any drooping or wilting. It probably helped that it was a mostly overcast today and we got maybe 5 minutes of light rain during the warmest part. But I'll get those pictures and post them, I'll even leave the potted Key Lime next to the Persian for comparison shot.
Okay, here we go:
First is the Tangerine (Mandarin). When I purchased it, I was... an idiot. I did not keep the tag or pot so I have forgotten just what var. this is. It is supposed to be one of the vars. that will create infertile fruit if it doesn't receive cross-pollination, but time will tell. I have actually been somewhat curious if the limes and the lemon trees will work as cross-pollinators or if I would have to get another mandarin to get fertile fruits. Not that I need them. It is also my "wife's" tree. She could care less about the lemon and limes, she just wants her tangerines. As such, she is quite put-out by the damage done by CLMs and Swallowtail caterpillars, even though the caterpillar damage is minor compared to my meyer. She was also annoyed that while the Meyer and Persian bloomed, her tree did not.
This is the tree in its new spot. You can see it's old spot on the left side of the picture. The old spot was in a location that could have been taken as in the lot just north of us. It is an empty lot for the moment, but we expect to be here at least 6 years, possibly 10, and if someone moved in to that spot, I didn't want to argue about just who 'owned' the tree. The rocks mixed in with the soil were actually part of a ring around this spot, which used to be the Persian's spot. It served a purpose of keeping the pine mulch from dropping down into the ring. But to accommodate the root-ball of the tangerine the entire ring had to be dug up and the gravel got mixed in with the dirt.
Two more shots of the mandarin from different angles. I took these pictures at the crack of dawn before the sun was really up, so the lighting should be pretty even all around the tree.
This last is a close-up of the foliage. Yep, CLM and caterpillar damage a-plenty. I promised my wife I would get some Spinosad and pre-treat her tree in Feb and Mar to help protect against CLMs next year. As for the Caterpillars... I just try to ensure her that the leaves will return once spring hits.
Next is the Meyer Lemon. The area it is sitting in needs to be cleared a bit more (actually, all the in-ground ones need clearing and the mandarin's area needs enlarging), but I figure since they're about to go dormant anyways, it's not a huge priority at the moment. For whatever reason, the swallowtails really loved this plant and stripped a lot of the leaves off of it. As you can see, we have very sandy soil. Welcome to Florida! Similarly to the mandarin, this one was originally planted just a bit too close to the northern lot's border.
This last one shows some yellowing of the lower leaves. I am guessing this is either nutrient deficiency or the plant getting ready to go dormant. In either case, this just started happening two weeks ago and I figured it was too close to dormancy to give it another infusion of fertilizer.
Last, but not least are my lime trees. On the left and in-ground is the Persian Lime, in the pot is my Zombie Key Lime. The Persian used to sit where the mandarin now resides, but that location was exposed to both western and northern winds. After "losing" my Key Lime to the late frost last winter, I decided to move the Persian to the southern side of my house. It will still get some western winds, but those will be mitigated by a stand of Live Oaks and Cedars in the field to the west of me. Come spring time, I will need to get a new, larger pot for my Key Lime. This plastic one has seen too much sun and probably won't last another summer. But for now, it is still light enough for me to move without killing my back. If temps look like they will be getting too low (they're forecasting a "wet and cold" winter this year), this one will be coming inside. The Persian bounced back better from the CLMs than the Mandarin did, but took a bit more of a hit from the caterpillars. The Key Lime was spared from both. The CLMs I'm guessing weren't interested because at the time they were starting, this would have been a 4" stick in a pot. But the caterpillars are confusing to me. I saw many Citrus and Giant Swallowtails surrounding my Key Lime and even found eggs on it, but for some reason it was spared any real damage.
As you can see, they are very close in size considering that the Key Lime was a nub when the Persian was... only a little smaller than it is now. I can't make up my mind on just which one is bigger, but with all the lush, green leaves, I keep wanting to say it's the Key, though the Persian does have some longer limbs.
I picked up three bags of unamended topsoil on my way home this morning and once my pain meds really kick in, each tree will be receiving a bag to help insulate their roots a bit more over the coming winter. The extra dirt will also, hopefully, help prevent water from draining too quickly from the mandarin's gravel-mixed soil.
Anyways, there you go. 12 perfect pictures of 4 not-so-picture-perfect citrus plants.
Okay. They all look to be in great shape. Even after the CLM and the Orangedogs. Spinosad will definitely keep the damage from both off the tree, but of course, at the expense of the Orangedogs completing their life cycle, and turning into a lovely Swallowtail butterfly. You will need to apply Spinosad as a foliar spray about every 3 weeks through your CLM season to keep the CLM down, it's not a "once and done" as Imidicloprid is. Mulching with topsoil is a great idea. The yellowing leaves at the bottom of your Meyer lemon is more likely due to old leaves just getting ready to drop off, perfectly normal. The rest of the tree looks fine. Citrus trees don't go truly "dormant", just so you know. They growth cycle changes a bit, but they don't go dormant like deciduous fruit trees do. Citrus trees have a root flush during the winter and early spring, but, if you fertilize them during with a high nitrogen fertilizer, they will push out new leaf flush, which is why it is recommended not to apply citrus fertilizer between November and February, just in case you have a significant temp drop, which could damage tender new growth. And, you're going to need to protect your new trees during any temp drops below, say, 33 degrees. Most especially your Key Lime tree, which is the least cold hardy of any citrus tree, so hauling it inside if temps threaten to drop below 33 is a good idea. Key lime trees can be pretty vigorous, so no surprise it has surpassed the Bearrs lime tree. And, it had significant "stimulus" to grow, having been frozen to the ground. So, what you're seeing is not that unusual. Your mandarin will no doubt have some seeds, as you have several citrus trees in close proximity that will cross pollinate with it (not the Bearss, as it is essentially devoid of pollen, hence why it is almost always seedless), it can be cross-pollinated by any citrus tree.
Patty S.
Erg. The Spinosad will hinder the swallowtails as well as the CLM's? Well, that being the case, I will probably only hit her mandarin with it. She is more aesthetics minded concerning her plant than I am with my lemon and limes.
Thank you for the information about dormancy. I was thinking they would go truly dormant, but my thinking was obviously wrong. I know that they have low N fertilizers, so given the recent transplants, is there one that might be beneficial to help stimulate root-growth but not bud growth?
After a bit of reading in a couple of University papers, I could possibly add phosphorous, but the benefit is debatable and it could actually hinder my growth. But I got to thinking, I have two bottles of rooting hormones that I use for my cuttings. Would mixing the emptier one into a couple gallons of water and then watering each plant do anything at all?
I think you should check whether you have planted these trees to deep. Although difficult to be certain from the photos, it looks to me that the graft point is very close to ground level.
Citrus should never be planted too deep. Pathogens will attack the bottom of the trunk. For the same reason, grafted trees should always have the graft line well above soil level and away from damp or rain/irrigation splashes.
In the case of the Key, you might be right. The graft is quite close to the soil line. But the in-ground Meyer and Bearrs (Patty's knowledge is awesome) have their graft points at least 3" above the soil line. The mandarin's graft is obviously high above the soil.
Well, after a fair bit of reading, it seems the best thing I can do to help promote the growth of roots between now and frost season, if we see any, is to keep the trees adequately watered. Almost every Root Stimulator type product has either been debunked or is debated on whether it is truly effective.

That's my way of telling you that we've been working on something so stupendous…so fantabulous…so just-what-you've been-hoping-for…and we're finally ready to unveil it! Are you ready? (I've been sitting on my hands to keep from tweeting about this until now!)
It's the Group KidMin Conference—coming to Chicago from October 7-10, 2011. And you and your team have got to join us!
Yes, it's a year away, but we want you to prepare now to join us for an amazing time of deeper learning that leads to transformation, authentic conversations that become supportive relationships, and a renewed passion for the God you serve.
Here's what's true about our conference.
Jesus is the real "celebrity." We're inviting amazing people to speak and lead, but they're not the "stars." They're here to challenge us to grow in our relationship with Jesus as we grow more effective in our ministry to children and families. Jesus is our biggest headliner at the KidMin Conference.
Relationships trump the show. The KidMin Conference facilitates connection more than a staged show. Sure, you'll get great speakers and musicians, but what happens off-stage is way more important than that. Simply put, we're all more attracted to, and feel more comfortable in, authentic environments rather than performance-oriented, showy settings. Ministry is about relationships, and this is a ministry conference.
You matter to us. Our KidMin conference is a conference by children's ministers, for children's ministers. This is for leaders and volunteers—everyone who ministers to children. When you come to our conference, it'll be like a giant reunion—with people who love you, support you, and believe in you! We want you to feel known, seen, celebrated, and challenged. And we've planned everything with you in mind—we want your team to come away refreshed and renewed.
Learning isn't about lecture. REAL learning (Relational, Experiential, Applicable, and Learner-Based) is threaded through every facet of our conference. You'll learn through interactions and experiences—more than you ever would from a long lecture. You'll find tables in meeting rooms that are more conducive to conversation. We've also created places for informal conversations and we'll formally connect you with a networking group that's facing the same issues you are. You won't feel alone at this conference!
Going deeper instead of wider. We've formed this ministry experience around 8-hour tracks that dig deeper into a subject so you have the space to really learn. And we're giving you tons of other workshops to meet more of your specific needs. You won't worry about how one workshop fits with another because we'll help you connect the dots. At the end of our conference, we'll help you put all the pieces together to create a workable plan to use back at home.
So…excited yet? I hope so because we're really excited to be with you at our first-ever Group KidMin Conference. Don't wait to sign up because space truly is limited. And we don't want you to miss out. Go to childrensministry.com/conference to learn more and sign up for updates! See you there!

I am, at the moment (and yes this has changed in the last couple of days) reading three books for Booklist (one on commercial aviation, one on the history of Antarctica and one travel/memoir on Alaska), one for my June column (another YA mystery from Soho Press) and Soundings, for myself (still sublime). Plus there is the War issue of Tinhouse (which includes a Samantha Hunt short story and thus I had to have it) and several magazines all of which showed up at once and are glossy and thus irresistible.*
So, I'm flitting from one book to another with three Booklist reviews due in April (and two more on deck after those), the mystery column begging for attention (as those books are really like candy at this point - so much fun to read) and stacks of research surrounding me that I dive into every day, mining for the exact facts and figures I know are there and now am ready to insert in the appropriate places.**
And I'm writing about the affect aviation has had on climbing Mt McKinley. Short answer = a lot. (You probably knew that already.) I love this topic though - love combining aviation and climbing history and really love writing about Joe Crosson because I don't think enough people know about him. (He was the first pilot to land on McKinley.)
This has to be the most scattered blog post ever.
The one unexpected surprise I'm dealing with in writing the new book - the Mountain Book - is finding my voice. It's so weird to look for a voice in nonfiction (you would think it would just be MY voice) but I know what I have is not right. The words are stiff, hollow - flat on the page. I keep putting them down so the bones are there, so I know where I'm going, but it's a draft with no soul.
SO BLOODY FRUSTRATING. (End rant.)
Reading and writing will continue. It's the only way to find my voice, I just wish the sucker wasn't hiding so far away these days.
*And the Andrea Barrett continues but slowly, sparingly; I don't want to rush it. Archangel is so wonderful - can't recommend it enough.
** I actually have a phone call to make tomorrow to confirm that a list is kept of notable wrecks in Merrill Pass so search and rescue does not launch every time one of them is sited again. Some are 50 years old.

Plane Crash Involving Actor Harrison Ford
Actor Harrison Ford, who played either a pilot or former pilot in films such as "Air Force One," "Star Wars," and "Six Days, Seven Nights" is a real life pilot who has survived at least one serious accident. On 23 October 1999, Ford was on a training flight in a Bell 206 helicopter when he and the instructor made an emergency landing in a dry riverbed near Santa Clarita, CA. Although the helicopter rolled over on its left side, neither Ford or the instructor were injured. The following description is based on the NTSB accident synopsis.
NTSB Identification: LAX00LA024
Operator: AG Aviation
Date: 23 October 1999
Location: near Santa Clarita, CA
Aircraft: Bell 206-L4, registration: N36R
On October 23, 1999, at 1115 hours Pacific daylight time, a Bell 206-L4, N36R, landed hard and rolled over in the Lake Piru riverbed near Santa Clarita, California. The helicopter, operated by AG Aviation, Teterboro, New Jersey, was substantially damaged. The local training flight conducted under the provisions of 14 CFR Part 91 originated from the Van Nuys Airport about 1030. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed. The flight instructor reported that he and the pilot trainee (Ford) were practicing autorotations to a power recovery in the dry riverbed. He stated that they had performed one practice autorotation with no problems.
On the second attempt, the pilot trainee flared about 150 to 200 feet AGL. He attempted to bring in power to initiate the power recovery, but reported that the power did not come back in time to recover to a hovering position. The helicopter landed hard and slid forward in the loose sand. The left skid contacted a log that was embedded in the sand and the helicopter rolled over onto its left side. Neither the private pilot/owner nor the commercial rated flight instructor were injured.
The NTSB concluded that the pilot delayed in adding power during a power-on recovery from an autorotation, which resulted in a hard landing and rollover.

Friday Frosting: Best Cake Ever
There is a cake that sets the standard by which I judge all others. In my book, all frostings, fillings and cakes are compared to an amazing white cake produced by the team at Royal Palms Resort and Spa in Phoenix, Ariz., which is managed by Destination Hotels & Resorts. For a special occasion years ago, they created a white cake with buttercream frosting and the surprise – a crème brulee and strawberry filling.
Other than splurging and eating two pieces, I was caught eating the top layer with my hands before it went bad. I couldn't let any morsel of the sweet goodness go to waste. It was the epitome of my weakness!
Why was the cake so good? Read more…

When I started this idea I (as well as all of you i'm sure) was a new bride to be with the ambition of creating the best and most memorable wedding ever. Weddings are great, but everything that leads up to that special day wasn't so great. I was so overwhelmed and stressed I didn't think I could do it. As I planned my wedding I began talking to friends, searching the Internet, and joining wedding blogs. Still it began to be too much for me. The two things that everyone I talked to said was, "I wish someone would give me my dream wedding so I don't have to deal with the hassle." And second. "I wish I could find everything in one place." Right then was when I began to brain storm and make an affordable place to find everything for that special day.
If you are located in the North Dakota area, we have caterors, cake decorators and bakers. Right now we are working with vendors to find everything from beautiful wedding dresses to table linens. We are still in the begining stages so any and all input is helpful. Tell us what you need or would like to find and we'll do our best to find it for y

Tinted Black & White Photographs
For Valentine's day I wanted to give my boyfriend something special so, I took a picture of a wallet sized photo that he has from childhood and played with photoshop to make it black and white and give it a soft glow. I printed it at my local photo studio in matte paper. I used color pencils made by Marshalls and blending them with my cocoa butter hand cream (LOL) and q-tips I gave the photo a soft tint I will now coat them with a sealer to make sure the colors stay.
OMG just saw a decorating show, where they took a photo of a flower turned it to B&W, took it to a copy shop and had it enlarged, used heavey paper, said the photo paper would cost alot, then I missed how they colored the photo, wasnt done in a program, and had only a little color to the photo , iowagirl I love your photo just beautiful, will have to play around with my programs and see what I can do.
annabell40 do you have a photo to show us? sounds like a beautiful projects! are you serious that you used cocoa butter ?
please come back and tell me more!
iowagirl what photo program do you use, love playing around with photos but never tried tinting them.
Thanks for shareing!
Oddie - I use Microsoft Digital Image Suite - is is also known as Digital Image Pro -and older versions are called Picture It!
I love it - but they have discontinued the software. So much easier than photoshop!
Most photo editing programs have some way of doing this. I can do a more subtle version of the coloring also. I can also make the flower any color I want.
With filters, I can make it look like watercolor, pencil drawing, chalk, etc...the possiblities are endless! It is my favorite way of crafting now.
It is fun to use for greeting cards. You can make them "pop" by printing the image twice - cut out the colored part, and use some pop dots to adhere it over the original image, for a 3-D look. Quick and easy!
Thanks for posting iowagirl, I have photo shop 2.0 but gosh its hard for me to use, dont understand filters, but have a book so maybe I can figure it out, will have to try it ,as I said I do love playing with photo, and this looks fun! I have picture it love it, was a freebe and dont do all as the regular one does, but its the frist one I grab when doing my photos! thanks for the ideas, also like makeing my own cards.
would so love to do a large wall print, like I was talking about, so many ideas!
Thanks for shareing!
ok, remember I'm new. How do I post the photo? I tried copy and paste and did not work.
I tried the cocoa butter as a last minute, I'm almost ready to give up idea, and it worked. Apparently the photo studios coat photos with some type of resin and the colors don't sink in without a little help. I have been too sick with a cold to spray a sealer on it to lock in the colors but will try that soon.
You need to host your picture somewhere. Most use Photobucket!
- as it is free. You upload your picture there and then paste in the "code" for the picture to appear.
You can also use Tiny Pic It is also free - just make sure you go to Tiny Pic NOT Tiny Pics - that extra S will get you a nasty site, LOL
- it is about the same as Photobucket (owned by the same people) - but with Tiny Pic you don't store your picture forever - it just hosts it as long as their are views where you have posted it. You also don't have to register to use TinyPic so it is quicker if you only want to post one picture and not use it again.
For GardenWeb forums (like this one) you need to use the HTML CODE. It starts with
Oh my you two have me so inspired to try this craft! did you see the post on ( recycled foam board )would make some nice backing for photos like these if you would like to blow them up for wall size.
gosh you just never know what will work for a project! care to explane how you did your coloring to your photo, and of course how the hand cream came in! now that iowagirl has told you how to post photos, and when your feeling better PLEASE show us your project.
beautiful photo iowagirl! hubby has some cool close up photos of flowers and birds and such, I have a project going on I have to finish frist! but will try soon!
Thanks for shareing
If you are going to try this, please do so on a duplicate of a photo or one that you donÂt mind throwing out, rather than an original. I had to go through a few before it actually worked. I placed a drop of the cocoa butter cream on a laminated surface (so that the cream does not get absorbed) and then rubbed the pencil into the cream to make like a color paste. I used a Q-tip to apply very little and very carefully to the areas that I wanted painted. I used photo-friendly color pencils but wonder if any pencils can be used this way, donÂt knowÂthat will be next monthÂs experiment, LOLÂ
I hope that you can see the picture attached. ItÂs a little blurry as this is a photo of a photo of a picture..but I think you can appreciate the colors.
BTW I saw somewhere on the web that other people had used petroleum jelly. I didnÂt try this as I thought it would be too messy. Then, when I was ready to give up, I gave the cocoa butter a shot.
OMG! dont know where to start! so I will just go down the line.
annabell40 omg what a cutie he is! love how you did the photo just beautiful! and what a wonderful gift! who is the other cutie? gosh I just love that photo! and you do the colors in just the right places!
ginger,you are a lady of many talents! and what a prould mother you must be! your daughter is just beautiful! and so is the photo tinting! would be beautiful done in a poster size for a large wall, like alot of houses have now days.
iowagirl you will have to share more of your beautiful photos with us.
I will have to read up on the tinting by hand, could make some beautiful special gifts for loved ones, like you guys have, thanks so much for shareing!
how do I save all this info useing my page here? I see others have clipping I think its called?
Happy Crafting

The question is how much they actually loathe each other and how much of it has been pumped up by the hype machine.
Tonight they fight. The rivalry was made far worse on the Ultimate fighter and few matches are as anticipated as this one. I think Rashad will take him out and I don't think it will go to decision. Jackson is to slow and will be easy prey to be picked apart.
The question is how much they actually loathe each other and how much of it has been pumped up by the hype machine.
I think due to their history Rampage will want and try to draw Rashad into a straight up fist fight much like Don Frye vs Takayama back in Pride, but I have faith that Rashad will be able to keep his cool and emerge victorious from one of many probable mistakes Rampage will make.
YouTube - Don Frye vs Takayama
Visit my blog: Rewriting Life
Well I don't know if it was ring rust or just apprehension but Jackson didn't nearly try hard enough to get anything done.
I agree with you assessment hassun. I mean Jackson didn't even win one round. That surprised even me.
But Mike Russow! Hahaah, Duffee struck himself out in that one. Not enough stamina to make a body like that work that long. And then POW.
Rashad has both power and speed, Rampage is all bulk no speed. Rashad did the right thing in the fight by chopping Rampage down.
I was also surprised with Rampage's performance he got murdered with only a few highlights.

I never thought that missiles could look so pretty! Warheads is the latest release from Pangea, makers of Enigmo and Cro-Mag Rally, and it somehow manages to turn a Missile Command clone into an awesome display of fireworks. It's a fun game, but sadly, lag and the lack of online leaderboards pull Warheads down.
Warheads is more or less a Missile Command clone. The screen is divided into four sectors, each of which has three rocket launchers and six buildings. You manage one sector at a time, switching between sectors for each wave. The enemy missiles (as well as occasional powerups) fall from the sky, and your job is to keep them from destroying all of the buildings in the sector. To do so, you simply tap anywhere on the screen, and the nearest rocket launcher will fire a rocket to that area. Watching your rockets blow up missiles and powerups is undoubtedly the best part: the resulting explosions have a distinct fireworks-like quality.
The missiles come in waves, and each wave brings increasing intensity. Though powerups like extra ammo will help, defeat is still inevitable, and towards the end things escalate into a fast-paced maelstrom of missiles. The challenge lies in seeing how long you can survive for. Unfortunately, there are no online leaderboards, only local ones, so you'll be competing…with yourself. No achievements or global high score boards really take away from the replay value. Warheads is practically begging for online leaderboards, and it's a real shame that they aren't present.
However, before we see leaderboards, I'd like to get some of the technical issues fixed. All too often, I feel like I died because of the game's flaws rather than my own lack of skill. For example, if you get a pop-up notification (a text message, battery drain warning, or any other push notification), the gameplay doesn't pause. That leaves you with missiles raining down on your buildings while a push notification stands between you and the game. Also, as time goes on, the lag increases exponentially. By the twentieth wave, my second-generation iPod Touch was struggling to respond to my taps as well as display the brilliant explosions in a timely manner, and the result was a lag-tastic experience…and this was with "Reduce Effects" on. Even 3GS users have reported having problems. I appreciate the explosive graphics, but if the iPhone/iPod can't handle them, Pangea should have left them out.
Oh, and did I mention? There's no auto-resume feature, so if you close the app…well, that's too bad, isn't it? Auto-resume really ought to be a standard, regardless of the app, and I can't believe that Pangea left it out. Additionally, when I hit "pause," I've found that resuming often gives me a frozen screen. When I hit "pause," I don't want to be paused forever! It's not a one-time bug, either; it happens about 50% of the time. Additional bug testing would have gone a long way towards making Warheads a better game. As I'm running a second-gen iPod Touch with the latest firmware, my device isn't an unusual one.
These issues are a shame, because Warheads shines everywhere else. The quaking camera and explosive graphics make it a real treat for the eyes, and the chaotic gameplay is very fun, as well. Even the audio is great—subtle, dramatic music coupled with good sound effects. Sadly, though, the technical issues along with the lack of replay value keep Warheads from its full potential. While it's a fun game even with these issues, I still recommend waiting for an update.

CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy opened their Reserve League slate on Monday with a 1-1 draw with the Seattle Sounders FC reserves.
Eriq Zavaleta opened the scoring for Seattle with a header from a corner kick in the seventh minute of play, but LA equalized in the 29th minute with a penalty kick goal by Hector Jimenez. The penalty was set up by rookie Charlie Rugg, who was brought down in the 18-yard box by Seattle defender Zach Scott.
After starting off the game slowly, LA controlled the run of play for a majority of the match and created several dangerous opportunties. Although LA was unable to find the go-ahead goal, the mood was by and large a positive one after the draw.
"I thought as I looked at this game, my concern going into it was that I thought that we would lack sharpness and physically get tired because we haven't played in so long. Most of these guys haven't played 90 minutes since preseason because of our congested schedule and that's how it's gone. We started out not sharp at all, I thought we had a very slow start," Assistant coach and Reserve League head coach Curt Onalfo told reporters. "We talked about not giving away unnecessary free kicks and corner kicks away and we give away a corner kick that we didn't need to give away. [On the goal], they had more height than we did and they took advantage of it early. Having said that, we found our feet and we started moving the ball how we like to play. I thought we were really good for the rest of the first half and created chances, but too bad we didn't get more than one goal because I thought we deserved to.
"The second half was kind of choppy, [Seattle] did better job to find their shape and the field was no longer slick and the ball kind of caught up on us and we weren't sharp in the final third where we needed to be. The guys plugged away and fought through it," Onalfo added. "Overall, for the first reserve game with the fact that we haven't played a reserve game in quite while, I'm fairly pleased. We just need to take some things away from it so that we're that much better."
LA resume their Reserve League slate on Sunday April 28 against Real Salt Lake at America First Field in Sandy, UT.
One of the lone bright spots in the LA Galaxy's 1-0 defeat to FC Dallas was the play of rookie Greg Cochrane.
I spoke to Cochrane about his peformance in the piece below....
Greg Cochrane's MLS debut the lone bright spot in LA's loss to FC Dallas
Could the LA Galaxy be closing in on a third Designated Player?
"Really interesting talking to Bruce Arena yesterday," White revealed at the beginning of the second half. "We asked him about the possibility and timeframe of a Designated Player ... and he said it should be finalized in the next couple of weeks. Perhaps early May.
"We couldn't get any more information out of him. … He said it's down to one. And I asked him have both parties agreed and he said, 'I know one of us has.' So they're waiting for the word."
The Galaxy have been linked to a number of players for their third Designated Player slot including Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard and Real Madrid attacker Kaka.
FRISCO, Texas - The LA Galaxy suffered their first defeat of their MLS schedule on Saturday as they fell 1-0 to FC Dallas on Saturday at FC Dallas Stadium.
My Three Points to the match, which includes my analysis on a stellar night for rookie Greg Cochrane can be found below.
Three Points: LA Galaxy fall 1-0 to FC Dallas
Now for some more notes on the match....
*Greg Cochrane made his first start of his professional career.
*On the other end of the spectrum, A.J. DeLaGarza made his 100th career MLS start of his career.
*Landon Donovan made his first start of the 2013 MLS regular season.
*The Galaxy have now conceded eight goals in all competitions in 2013 and seven have come in the final 10 minutes of games.
*The match was LA's first defeat to FC Dallas since May 1, 2011.
The LA Galaxy will hold Landon Donovan bobblehead night on May 5 when 10,000 fans will receive bobbleheads as LA take on the Houston Dynamo in an MLS Cup rematch.

FRISCO, Texas -- The LA Galaxy wrapped up a difficult six-day, two country road trip that saw them lose two matches.
The latest defeat came on an 87th minute goal by George John to give FC Dallas a 1-0 win over the Galaxy. The two defeats were difficult to stomach for the club, but LA will return to Southern California on Sunday morning.
After the defeat to Dallas, defender A.J. DeLaGarza said that he and the rest of the club are eager to return home.
"I think we've lost the last three games now [two against Monterrey] and now here," said DeLaGarza. "If we could have gotten out of here, 0-0, down a man for quite a while, I think we could have been really happy with the point. To go out like this after the guys fought for 90 minutes, giving up a goal, is frustrating."
FRISCO, Texas -- LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena discussed the club's 1-0 defeat to FC Dallas.
Arena's quotes are below...
(On whether he thought the team was tired due to their midweek match…)
ARENA: "No."
(On what he thought about the red card for Leonardo…)
ARENA: "Well if I didn't think it was a great call, I probably didn't think it was a great card right?"
(On how Donovan played…)
ARENA: "Okay. It's going to take him a couple of months to get going. He's behind the group, but he's done remarkably well. Having him back with very little preparation, he's doing alright. He's obviously got to play better and he'll get fitter. As he gets fitter, he'll play better."
(On whether he was happy about the end result…)
ARENA: "Obviously not, we lost the game, right? I'm not happy losing a game. A game is a possibility of us getting three points, let alone zero points. I'm not at all pleased with the end result. "
(On the overall effort of the team…)
ARENA: "I think the effort was pretty good, but I think that we need some players that can think a little bit better during the last 10 minutes of the game."
FRISCO, Texas -- The LA Galaxy went down to 10-men in 60th minute of their eventual 1-0 defeat to FC Dallas when center back Leonardo was ruled to have brought down FCD forward Blas Perez for a denial of a goal scoring opportunity. The moment caused LA to switch into a defensive posture, and although LA had several opportunities at goal -- including a penalty of their own -- a Dallas goal in the 87th minute by George John put FCD ahead for good.
Following the match, I caught up with Leonardo and asked him about the play.
LEONARDO: "It was an error on my part. The guy got behind me and then I kind of don't know what happened because he just went down. I don't think it was a penalty. The referee might have felt a little bit of pressure to call it, but I can't be thinking about it right now. I just have to move on. The play obviously cost us potentially three points. I just have to move on and then be a little bit sharper and better."
Video of the foul is below...

Highlights from the LA Galaxy's 1-0 defeat to FC Dallas below...
FRISCO, Texas -- In a few hours, the LA Galaxy will take on FC Dallas as they shift their focus to MLS after their dream of the CONCACAF Champions League was extinguished. Check out my links, match ups to watch and predicted lineup below...
*Omar Gonzalez has enjoyed an emotional week as he visits family on both sides of the border. On Saturday, he'll play in front of 250 of his friends and family at FC Dallas Stadium.
*Mike Magee did not start against Monterrey due to a right hip issue, but the Galaxy attacker looks set to return to the starting XI against FC Dallas. Magee also addressed his current status as MLS' leading goal scorer.
*Bruce Arena has pledged to make at least "a couple" of changes to LA's starting XI from the midweek match.
*A few players that could slot in include Tommy Meyer, Colin Clark...and possibly even Greg Cochrane.
*LAGalaxy.com provided this match preview.
*Lastly, read my Three Points to the game.
A.J. DeLaGarza vs. Jackson
Speed vs. Speed. DeLaGarza is wellknown for his quickness in defense, but he'll be tested against the fleet-footed Brazilian Jackson, who has made a habit of challenging the Galaxy in the past. If DeLaGarza is to stop Jackson, positioning will be key.
Omar Gonzalez vs. Blas Perez
A true battle of the titans between a pair of talented international players. Gonzalez excelled midweek against Aldo De Nigris and Humberto Suazo, two of the finest forwards in CONCACAF, but he'll face another member of that accomplished list in Perez. A big body, who a stellar touch, expect Gonzalez to attempt to outmuscle the Panamaian as he looks to get an edge.
Mike Magee vs. Zach Loyd
After being unable to start LA's match against Monterrey on Wednesday, Magee is back and is eager to lead the Galaxy to a win over Dallas. Magee has had success at FC Dallas Stadium before as he scored in LA's 1-0 victory over FCD last July, which was Dallas' last home defeat. A shrewd defender, Loyd has gotten off to a solid start this season, but is expected to have his hands full with the crafty Magee.
Cudicini; DeLaGarza, Gonzalez, Leonardo, Dunivant; Franklin, Juninho, Sarvas, Magee, Donovan, Keane

A Lawyer's View: Bulletproofing your Tweets
The Value of Social Media for gathering information, developing your public persona as a journalist, and promoting your work is well-recognized, writes Jeff Hermes, Director of the Digital Media Law Project at Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet and Society. Yet promoting investigative work on social media platforms poses special challenges. In an article for INN, Hermes, who operates the Online Media Legal Network, details the issues at play and offers some guidelines to consider. Among them:
*Never say anything about the story in a social media context that you would not be comfortable publishing in the text of the story itself. *Facts that did not make it into the article should not appear in social media--particularly those facts removed during the vetting process.

Kings In The Corner Tournament At PCHgames Is ON Today!
Hear Ye! Hear Ye! — PCHGames is Proud to Present the FIRST EVER Kings in the Corner Tournament! Be it known throughout the land that with the honour of thy presence in these noble games, comes the bounty of 10X free tokens!
But that's not all, ye royal gamers! There are OVER $2,300.00 in prizes that are GUARANTEED to be awarded, so play now!
Take a look at these BIG payouts:
1st Prize: $1,000.00
2nd Prize: $500.00
3rd Prize: $250.00
2 Tournament Players: $150.00
Top 3 Token Earners: $100.00
Top 25 Scorers: 1,000 Bonus Tokens
That's a lot of loot to win and the best part is, you don't need to be experienced at Kings in the Corner, you don't need to be trained to play solitaire and you don't need to be a blue blood. All you need to do is play one game and you're in it to win it — no matter what you score — and it's all absolutely FREE!
Here's how it works:
- To begin: Select a card from the draw pile
- Try to place any of your cards that are one lower in value and opposite in color on one of the piles – just like when you play solitaire
- If you draw a King, you must place it in one of the "free" corner spots to start a new pile
- If you can't play a card, end your turn by clicking "DONE"
- Run out of cards before the computer and you WIN!
The short of it is you're stacking cards of opposite colors on top of each other in number order — aces low — kind of like how you play solitaire, only easier, and with lots of great prizes at stake.
It's so easy, you'll be playing like a pro in no time!
And speaking of playing like a pro — here are some behind the scenes tips exclusively for tournament day:
- Playing on the "Hard" level will give you the most points.
- Try to leave each foundation with the smallest value card at the end of your turn. This prevents the computer from having a chance to play a lot of cards.
- Before clicking DONE, be sure there are no foundations you can stack on one another.
- If you have an empty spot and have cards to play on an existing foundation, play one card at a time in the empty spot before moving them to earn the most points.
- Try to go out as early as you can. The cards that the computer is holding at the end of the game give you bonus points!
With all these tips you're ready to play. Now's the time and today's the day! So welcome friends, come one, come all! Let's be merry, let's have a ball! Just one play at PCHgames and you can win, so with that in mind … let the games BEGIN!

Played , But didn't make since
Still can't find the kings in the coroner game. please help me.
Why can't I find this game? I've been trying to get to it to play the practice rounds. Won't let me pull it up VERY FRUSTRATING! Oh everything else is great. Love love love PCH
I would probably enjoy PCH a lot better if I could actually play the games they offer me….or even do anything they try to give me!!!
I am addicted to this game.
I do enjoy the game and we are lucky it is part of pch games…..what I do not like though is that I played on the tournament day and we don't get the winners list presented to us…..was this another one of the games that promises a prize reward to the winner, but nobody can really win? I am sure disappointed because I played this game for a really long time and not even getting the winning tokens accredited to my account….is this what PCH is all about? As a Christian I do not like to mingle with deceit….guess I should evaluate myself and see if I want to continue to be doped!!
who won the tournament? or when u guys are goin to show the winners?
Happy sixtieth PCH
I precisely had to appreciate you once more. I am not sure the things I would've made to happen in the absence of these opinions shown by you over this concern. It seemed to be a real scary setting in my circumstances, but discovering your professional fashion you solved that made me to jump with delight. I'm grateful for the help and then have high hopes you really know what a powerful job you were carrying out instructing people through the use of a blog. I am certain you haven't met any of us.
Well kets play. . .I freaking love pch there great

3 pixel bug fix for Internet Explorer 6
15th January 2009
3px Bug
3px Bug Fixed!
This one has been covered many times over the past few years but it has never been shown on CSSplay, so I though that if anyone has been having problems recently with their three variable width columns, float left and right with a center fill, I should post this solution.
The problem only occurs in IE6 so if you are viewing in any other browser you will not see the vertical gaps either side of the center column in the first box.
The gapping is just 3 pixels wide and no matter what margins you set this will not be closed.
The answer is to give the left and right columns a style of display:inline and apply a right margin of -3px to the left column and a left margin of -3px to the right column.
Finally you need to apply a left and right margin to the center column that is 3px narrower than the left and right columns.
You may use this method on your personal 'non-profit' web site without seeking my permission. A link back to CSSplay is always appreciated.
Commercial usage is also permitted without seeking approval, but I would ask that a donation is considered to support my work on CSSPlay.
If you are having problems integrating any of my demonstrations into your website then I now offer a service to fault find and correct any errors that you may have introduced. Please email me for more information.

Punxsutawney Phil 'indicted' over spring forecast
Wants death penalty considered
CINCINNATI - Wednesday marked the first day of spring, which is why many Ohio residents were disappointed to find snow on the ground when they woke up the next morning.
It always seems like Mother Nature refuses to cooperate when we need her to the most, especially after a long, grueling winter.
But what about that Punxsutawney Phil?
Thousands gathered on Gobbler's Knob in Pennsylvania on Feb. 2 to watch the famous groundhog. The rodent didn't see his shadow, which according to tradition signifies there was supposed to be an early spring.
That's an issue the Butler County Court of Common Pleas wish they could take up in court. In jest, officials wrote up a fake lawsuit that contends in part "Punxsutawney Phil did purposely, and with prior calculation and design, cause the people to believe that Spring would come early."
Butler County Prosecutor Mike Gmoser even called for the death penalty to be brought upon Phil as his punishment, if convicted.
The sentiment of the suit, however, is very much real.
After months of cloudy days and brisk breezes, Ohio is ready for a burst of warm sunshine and a change of greenery.
View the lawsuit here.
