Yahoo – Being a food server isn't glamorous work, but there's no shortage of restaurateurs these days who insist on hiring attractive, shapely waitresses dolled up in skimpy outfits as a way to woo more customers. The so-called "breastaurant" boom has spurred scrutiny into how managers decide who is right for the job as well as investigations into possible discriminatory hiring.Jennifer Rogers (above, left) is among those who alleges that she was denied a job because she didn't have the right body type. Rogers applied at the Tilted Kilt Pub and Eatery in Palm Desert, Calif., but was rejected from job as a "Kilt girl" when the restaurant's mandated "uniform" didn't fit, Rogers told KESQ in Palm Springs."Because the skirt was a size too small, they said that I could not work there," Rogers told the TV station. "I couldn't wear the uniform."
Other similarly themed chains, such as Marylou's Coffee, a Boston-area chain that employs "bubbly, attractive teens," has been investigated by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for possible violations of hiring laws.The local head of the EEOC defended the probe of Marylou's, even though no one had filed a complaint against the company, through what are known as "commission-initiated investigations," the Boston Herald reported in June."It's possible that applicants or employees may not know they've been discriminated against, based on their age or any factor," said Robert Saunders, director of the EEOC's Boston office.
I absolutely never understand shit like this. Like why is this news? Yeah no shit this chick didn't get the job. Umm she's fat. She wouldn't get a job as a cheerleader or a model either. Again same reason. Because she's fat. It would be like me getting mad that the Patriots didn't give me a roster spot. God just didn't give me the talent to play professional sports so I became the best fucking smut blogger on the planet. This chick is just too fat to get a job at the Tilted Kilt. Find something else to do. I mean there are 9 billion jobs out there where being hot isn't a requirement. You picked one that it is. It literally couldn't be simpler. The world needs ditch diggers too.
PS – I just included that last paragraph because I laugh everytime I read that sentence about Marylou's Coffee.
"The local head of the EEOC defended the probe of Marylou's, even though no one had filed a complaint against the company"
If that is not the definition of a guy that has too much time on his hands than I don't know what is. Good old Robert Saunders protecting the world from nobody in particular like a champ.

What to do about driving?
I have a fiance with a child and a past...He has been sober for the past 2 years, attends AA, and his wife will not 'allow' him to drive his child.
There is nothing in the divorce papers saying he can't drive, but she insist that he doesn't drive and expects me to do all the driving.
They are going to court for this soon, but it has been a year since we have 'respected' her wishes. I wouldn't mind doing it all the time, if I was well....I have problems driving with my lupus.
We both don't know what to do except for him to start driving without her 'approval' and hope nothing bad happens. I am just too tired to do it anymore especially since I just got out of surgery yesterday and now my doctors have refused to look into why I am exhausted all the time until I recover from my surgery for at least a month.
I don't want to 'tell' his ex that my health is bad because she would either force my fiance to visit his daughter at her house like the 'happy little family' she wants back after I stole it away from her or will try to stop visitation at all. She is just very prejudice when it comes to her daughter and my disability thinking that I am diseased and her daughter shouldn't be exposed to me. It's frustrating!
I just don't know what to do???
ridicilous....if he had substance abuse problem in the past, it does not mean he shouldn't drive now. unless he was arrested for DUI and lost his lisence or she knows of him driving under the influence, he does not need her approval. hope he can get that straighten out in court very soon.
as about your own situation. you aren't obligated to tell her about health issues, you are not obligated to drive anyone. Tell her you are busy wiht some projects. Not her business.
make sure your fiancee gets court papers done properly. her made up rule about him not driving has no foundation.
hope you feel better very soon. stay positive, you don't need all this stress.
Thanks for the ideas...I am so sick and tired of her and need to find a way to get out of her control. I feel like I am a 'enabler' in this situation and that I can't keep making myself sick over this.
No one, including my fiance, cannot expect me to keep up this charade that I can continue to do this and feel good about myself. Truthfully, how my week usually goes is: we have her on both Sunday and Monday (me driving), and then I 'recover' from my fatigue both Tuesday and Wednesday. I split up my chores on Thursday and Friday. Saturday is the day that my fiance and I enjoy together...and then it starts all over again.
My week is shot!!!!
I am not sure I understand you. kid needs to be with his father, even if it is tiring for you to have a kid at home, that's what you signed up for when you decided to marry a man with a child. and this girl is wiht her dad only two times a week. but I agree that you shouldn't be driving, he should. and you shouldn't be primary care giver, he should be.
Finedreams, I don't understand you, trix doesn't say it's too tiring to have the child visit or that she doesn't want the visits not to happen, merely that she finds the driving too tiring and wants her BF be able to do the driving.
It may be that it's a long drive. In any case, if BM has issues with BF driving she needs to do the driving herself. If trix wasn't in the picture, who would be doing the driving then to enable visits with the father? Unless the court order says so, he shouldn't have to visit in BM's home.
FD she is tired of driving. And you dont sign up for anything. She accepts he has a child , its BM she is tired of and driving.
Get the papers done, you have no responsibility in driving. I understand BM concern but he is sober for 2 years, no dui and there is nothing that says he can't drive.
oh a brilliant idea has hit. WHY DOESN'T SHE DRIVE THE CHILD OVER????? She is so concerned about her ex driving? get her to drive!
Its not her business to know about your health, and its not yoru responsibility.
Tell bm, Dh is driving now period and if she doesn't like it then she drives her. Your not her maid or her chauffeur.
mmm....maybe you should ask for a service fee??:) lol...
i know you are stressed and tired. Speak with DH and cut off time with bm to breath better. Having lupus enough, you dont need a controling bm on top of it.
And your dh doesn' have to visit at bm home. If the court papers do not say it then its visitation out of her home. And she can drive then...
No, they have been divorced since 2005...separated since 2001...she's just crazy.
I just looked at the 'court papers' (my fiance had them out) and it states: "Father is responsible for 'transportation' to and from visitation"... He is planning to email her the original visitation agreement tonight (yeah!!!!) and tell her what's up.
His only worry now is that she will take this out on the child which she has done in the past. One time I was in the car alone with the daughter and the daughter told me: "Don't tell daddy, but we need to watch him to make sure he doesn't drink." I told her that he hasn't drank for a very long time and that is not something that she should worry about. When my fiance got back in the car, I told him about it in front of her and we discussed it right then and there.
Just awhile ago, we had a celebration of his sobriety with both his daughters present. The 6 yr. old came up to me and said: "I understand that daddy is better now and that he loves me very much. I am very proud that he is sober and is staying sober for me." I told her that if she felt that way that she needs to tell just what she told me to daddy.
So, she sat dad down and told him, which almost put him into tears and he had said some things and we continued with dinner, etc. She then went home and told her mom what she told daddy....and oh my god!!!....it was a mess. The mother went on and on about all the bad things daddy did and that we still need to be careful and not trust him fully yet, etc. The daughter then started crying and throwing a very bad tantrum. The mom thought that the best thing to do is hold her down to keep her from moving and being upset about her mother's reaction. WE then got a email telling both of us how we shouldn't have been so positive about his sobriety, etc. and that we need to remind her of all the bad times that happened. This women is crazy....
If the order says he is responsible for transportation to and from visitation, then HE is responsible. My DH has a hearing tomorrow because his order says BM will transport their daughter to the visits but BM wants to send her mom as her agent to get her daughter for her. After they lied to him, he no longer allowed it and has been making BM come get her own daughter. So, they are leaving it up to the court to decide.
I guess one of my pet peeves is parents that burden the kids with their feelings about the other parent. My mom did it to me and as I got older, I have less and less to do with her. She doesn't (and probably never will) get it, that I love my dad and I don't want to hear her criticize him all the time, especially when I am old enough to know it's not true. My kids grew up with no dad in their life and even though I could have found lots of nasty things to say about their father's that was true.. didn't visit, didn't support, had other kids they DID raise, etc. etc., I never said an unkind word about their father's. I did make the mistake of making vague excuses for them when they were young because I never knew if they would surface & start visiting.. so I said "he's probably got problems in his life that prevent him from seeing you." and eventually, the kids got old enough to figure out that he had a new family and didn't have 'problems' raising them.

Amanda's retrial is underway in Italy — but the 26-year-old isn't present in court, as she maintains she didn't murder her roommate, Meredith Kercher, in 2007. Why isn't she there?
Amanda Knox's retrial for the 2007 murder of Meredith began on Sept. 30 in Florence, Italy — but Amanda refused to return for the trial, stating her own reason for the choice.
Amanda Knox Refused To Go To Italy for Sept. 30 Retrial
When Amanda sat down with Matt Lauer, 55, on Today on Sept. 20, she stated a simple reason for not going back to Italy for her retrial.
"I was imprisoned as an innocent person. It's common sense not to go back," she stated.
The retrial began on Sept. 30, looking at forensic evidence again to see if she and ex-boyfriend Raffaelle Sollecito cut Meredith's throat or not. The one piece of evidence that had not been examined yet was material on a blade that was used to murder Meredith — and if her DNA is found on it by the Carabinieri (Italian military police), the outcome likely won't be hopeful for Amanda and Raffaelle.
Italian laws do not require Amanda, the defendant, to be there for a retrial. No outcome has been determine from the retrial yet.
Amanda Knox Wants Meredith Kercher's Parents To Forgive Her
Amanda also told the Today Show host that with time Meredith's parents will realize she's innocent of their daughter's 2007 murder in Perugia, Italy – insisting Rudy Guede, 26, is guilty for her death. "It's so hard to be logical about this when you've lost someone so close and important," she tearfully told Matt. But she insisted the future will be much brighter between them.
Amanda understands the Kerchers refusal to see her innocence, but maintained that one day she'll be able to approach them — even telling Matt she ranks herself a '9′ on scale of 1-to-10 she'll be proven innocent again.
Amanda told Matt, "At this point Meredith is a part of my life. She'll always be there. I want to be there and share that with them."
A relationship with the Kercher parents seems unlikely, but the Washington University student feels confident that they will some day bond over the memory of Meredith. Despite their tragic connection, Amanda doesn't ever want to be separated from the still-grieving parents.
Only time will tell what the outcome of the trial will be!
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Will Amanda be proven innocent after this retrial? Let us know!

Meredith suffered a violent death by multiple stab wounds. No one could have done this without leaving large amount of DNA in the murder room. Only Rudy Guede left such evidence and not a shred of evidence was found about Amanda's presence in the murder room. Since DNA is generally invisible to naked eye no one could have cleaned the murder room of only their DNA. Why supreme court of Italy does not see such logic is beyond me. The knife that was picked from Solicito's kitchen drawer may have been used by Amanda for cutting bread. The appeals court clearly proved that only starch was present on the knife and not Meredith's DNA (despite Carabenieri's possible attempt to plant it). Now suprreme court has accepted prosecution's request to allow Carabenieri to look at even smaller amount of DNA, untested earlier, while denying a request by the defence to test semen found in the murder room. I know in Italy they call police as Carabenieri but I am not sure if they call supreme court as kangaroo court.

then you've watched way too much TV. Come on which is more likely: a murder by an intruder, or a "sex cult" involving three people, two of whom barely (if at all) knew the other? These things just don't happen in real life to any great extent. To make such an extraordinary claim requires extraordinary evidence. But there is no evidence whatsoever.

Hey All. New Video in the wake of the terrorist action in Paris:
If you'd like to support the artist (me) and get a great CD/download in the process, "Another Mother Flood" can be found on The Better Man. I'd like to keep making videos that might have an impact. Buy Here.
Dec 31st:
Hey. So don't get used to this, but here's a sweet one that Neale Eckstein put together for us. Three guys, one mic, one piano track, one Bruce Springstein song. With Matt Nakoa and Jared Salvatore and myself on vocals, Matt on Piano, me on bass. Shot/Mixed/Recorded by Neale.
Listen, really sorry about this one. I just don't like being told what's ok to write/say/sing by the leader of North Korea or anyone else. Here's to the Dear Leader, or whatever he's calling himself. Shot with some dear friends who inexplicably agreed to say what I asked them to. I can't tell you why. I am, however, very grateful.
August 16th 2014
Hey! So, I'm taking pre-orders for The Better Man at bandcamp.
The Better Man's my new CD. More music, fewer genitalia references.
Brian Keathley, DJ at KALX, Berkeley, says "This is by far his best work yet. A great collection of tunes with humor, and social commentary - some of which is damn profound. Be listening for it this week and beyond on my radio shows!"
So head to the bandcamp site and do the deal. Officially, you're preordering the cd for future release when it "drops" but I'll send you a copy (or copies) or a download depending on what you purchase.
Oh, also, you get more bang for the buck if you download via bancdamp instead of iTunes. Both cost you $10 but via bandcamp I make an extra 2$.

OK, here's a little challenge for all all you SONGWRITERS out there. Particularly you singer/songwriters. Particularly you capo-wrangling Northeastern types who just can't seem to stick to standard.
The song "DADGAD in Baghdad" needs to be written but a) I don't really play in DADGAD and b) I don't feel like learning. How 'bout you? Write, record, and send me "a YouTube" of any serious attempt and I'll send you a copy of my brand new CD The Better Man when it's fresh off the presses. I'll even throw in The Aristocrat. And I'll feature the best right here on my site.
Hey, who knows? You just might get a killer song out of it.
Oh, and sign up on my mailing list to be hipped to new songwriters' challenges as they come out.

May 19th:
Well, apart from an unfortunate blindsided-by-karaoke incident last night, I'm quite well, and thanks for asking.
First of all, just released a video, which I'll post just below.
Second of all, I'm about to release another one. A big one. With actors and gaffers and a location and all. Pretty psyched. It looks good. But here's the one just BEFORE that one...shot at the Kerrville Folk Festival by Neale Eckstein. And edited by...well, yours truly. Or falsely, depending on how much bullshit I'm slinging on Facebook at any given moment...
Anyway, here's the video...
May 7th:
I, for one, am excited. I ask you...what could be a better day than today to start the remainder of your existence on this big, blue marble? Assuming you actually want to exist. Not that you had much of a choice. Unless you believe that "we choose our parents" malarkey. If you do, and I've just offended you, well, you have the rest of your life to walk it off. Starting today! Now go and get 'em! If you're more of the "well, they did it and I'm here. Now what?" school, then you have to find your own way under the weight of your ability to perceive how mind-blowingly minute and, therefore, insignificant we are. Anais Nin said we make our own meaning. So did Werner Erhard, of course, but he didn't have the cool name, or those hot, debauched nights in Paris. Far as I know. Though his absolute moral relativism would've left the floodgates of ecstasy with a very wide swinging potential, should he have chosen to push them. EST, come to think of it, could be simply the French form of East. To distinguish it from Ouest, which translates directly as "Where is the East?". And "Landmark Forum" and "Enroll" are two great things to say with a French accent (in English.) And Werner was all about sales, as evidenced by him having had the foresight to change his name from John Paul Rosenberg, which would have sounded like the ex-pope married into my mother's family. I'm having a hard time imagining pape-non-plus (he's French now) wintering in Boca, barring a name change to Pope-a Raton, literally "Mouse's Pope," which would seem to imply a more diminutive pontiff, unless, well, they were talking about Micky Mouse, Disney World being in Florida and all, and, come to think of it, I wouldn't put it past the uber-happy ride-reich from owning their own celestial interceder. And if the prospect of waiting in queue for an hour only to get onto an assembly line to hear "It's A Small World" drummed into your head until it can't be bleached from your silent, eternal tape loop doesn't evoke comparisons to religious indoctrination, well, you've been a bad, bad boy, and neither the pope, Mickey Mouse, Anais Nin, Henry Miller, Barney Miller, Barney Fife, or the composers of The Battle Hymn of the Republic (a sexist, noninclusive song title if I ever heard one) can help you. Leaving you, as I opined above, free to do what you can, what you want, for the rest of your life. Huzzah.
April 26th:
Well, this happened on Easter Sunday in Salt Lake City, outside the American Atheists convention. They were picketing, I was ornery.
First of all, Thanks to The Bob And Tom Show! They've been spinning "There's A Picture" and I'm getting all sorts of downloads and fan contact. How cool is that? You can download the track (or the whole CD) at iTunes. You can also purchase an actual CD.
And February 25th, Tuesday, I'll be Live on the Bob and Tom show!

So, well, I could be all cheeky and try to dazzle you with meaningless diatribes, replete with vocabulary I learned ten minutes prior, but I'll leave that to my blog page. Go there for that.
Here I'll just say hi. And post a few videos. The first is from the Laugh Factory:
And now,
some commercials I did recently for The Aristocrat.

Non-Governmental Organisations
Strengthening partnerships continues to be key tenet of WFP's vision. WFP works annually with a large variety of civil society organizations including international NGOs, national NGOs and Community-based Organizations (CBOs) as well as members of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (International Federation of the Red Cross (IFRC), International Committee of the Red Cross and Red Crescent (ICRC) and national societies). As emphasized throughout the new WFP Strategic Plan 2014-2017, these partners play a critical role in assisting WFP to reach its objectives.
In 2013 alone, WFP partnered with nearly 1,400 civil society partners, the majority of which were national NGOs/CBOs and national Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. Together, WFP's civil society partners distributed a total of approximately 2.3 million metric tons, or 74%, of WFP food in 2013.
For a brief snapshot of operational partnership carried out in recent years, please see the fact sheets available below; more information pertaining to 2013 will soon be published. Additional information from previous years can also be found by visiting the Annual Reports section of this website.
Also on this website:

Tiger men in key road swing
By CONOR NICHOLL
Last season, the Fort Hays State University men's basketball team won the regular-season conference championship by mainly playing six Tigers. Four of them averaged at least 12.8 points per contest while Carson Konrade chipped in 9.1 points per contest. Three players averaged at least 32 minutes a game.
This winter, FHSU has received some strong bench support, including back-to-back big games from senior forward Andrew Victoria two weeks ago on a road swing. Last Saturday, the Tigers defeated Lincoln (Mo.) University 88-85. The five starters -- senior forward Dwayne Brunson, sophomore point guard Craig Nicholson, Konrade, sophomore forward Jake Stoppel and junior Tom Gabric -- combined for all but 37 minutes. The bench tallied 11 points and four rebounds.
"We need to do a better job with our bench," coach Mark Johnson said. "Our bench needs to give us more. They need to play with more confidence. I thought Andrew really had a great stretch.
"(Saturday), he struggled when he got out there," Johnson added. "I think it might have been a little tough of a matchup with him with those guys, because they can pop and shoot the ball fairly well. We need more out of our bench. We can't keep riding our starters this many minutes all year long."
Today and Saturday, FHSU (12-3, 4-3 MIAA) has a critical two-game road stretch against University of Central Oklahoma and Northeastern State University. UCO stands at 10-4, 4-3 and NEOSU is 10-4, 5-2 MIAA. Northeastern's Bryton Hobbs leads the conference with 23.5 points per contest, while UCO's Josh Gibbs is at 22.1 points and 12.8 rebounds, fourth best nationally. Start time is 7:30 p.m. today and 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
"It goes both ways," Johnson said. "I need to have more confidence in them and they need to play with more confidence."
The starters delivered big games Saturday. Nicholson finished with 27 points and eight assists and tied the school record with 19 made free throws. Gabric set a career high with 19 points.
"Coach is always like, 'Tom, be aggressive, play hard,' " Gabric said. "That's what I did, and that's what gets me going."
The Tigers shot 87.5 percent from the foul line for the game and is at 80.8 for the season. Last year, FHSU set the school record with a 76.7 free throw percentage. Johnson said he hasn't changed anything with free throws.
"Either you have good foul shooters or you don't," Johnson said. "You want to have a good free throw shooting team, recruit good free throw shooters. Same thing with 3-point shooters. You want to have a good 3-point shooting team, recruit good 3-point shooters. Our guys shoot the free throws well. You hope that continues."

2 Bank Stocks to Buy Now
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Despite chronic concerns over the fiscal cliff and constant threats of European debt, financial stocks were one of the bright performers in 2012. One would think it would be the other way around.
The fact that Bank of America's (BAC) stock was able to double despite an unfavorable interest rate climate highlights how fortunate investors were in the banking sector.
Will that continue for the banking sector? Here are two names to watch closely in 2013.
JP Morgan Chase (JPM - Get Report)
It makes sense to lead off with JP Morgan since the bank lead off 2012 with a bombshell -- announcing it had amassed a credit-derivative loss (initially reported) of $2 billion. Investors later learned the poor trade -- now known as "London Whale" -- had actually reached levels of close to $7.5 billion. On the news, the stock lost almost 30% of its value. But it didn't last. Wall Street has a very short memory. Nothing says I'm sorry better than beating earnings, which JP Morgan managed to do in both quarters that followed. In the most recent quarter JPM exceeded both top- and bottom-line estimates, beating EPS and revenue goals by 6% and 16%, respectively. The bank posted revenue of $25.9 billion, which was 13% better sequentially and improved 6% year over year. Net income also soared to $5.7 billion, a 15% sequential improvement. This was also enough to top rivals such as Citigroup (C), which posted revenue of $19.4 billion, declining 7% year over year. There's plenty to like with JP Morgan at current levels, including 20% upside potential. The catalysts will include the possibility of share buybacks over the next couple of quarters and the bank's commitment towards deleveraging its balance sheet. Investors should expect shares to reach the $52 level by the second half of the year. Wells Fargo (WFC - Get Report) Next on the list is Wells Fargo. Although the bank's third quarter was not up to its usual standards, relative to expectations, it wasn't all that bad. Plus, it was enough to continue what is now 11 consecutive quarters of profit growth, posting $4.9 billion in the third quarter. Not only was this a company record, but it also represented year-over-year increase of 22%.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

New for 2010 we have our GPS Team Challenge which will get your teams racing around the city trying to solve clues to score points for the win.
Along with the GPS Challenge we can also provide specific Team Building problems that will require communication, cooperation, teamwork - and probably a bit of inspiration for some of them.
Abseiling and rock climbing are great activities to improve confidence and teamwork. When climbing, the group will be responsible for the safety of each other and encouraging their colleagues to reach the top.
Abseiling is also a good way to step outside personal comfort zones and work on pushing confidence boundaries in safety.
Both adventure activities are also an ideal icebreaker for new teams to interact and improve communication and trust.

Blenders Reviews
We reviewed the best blenders for making everything from frosty margaritas to healthy smoothies. We tested blenders for grinding coffee beans and chopping onions, and we also looked at how easy each blender is to use and clean (most jars are dishwasher-safe), and how helpful manuals and customer service were. What we learned: Complicated controls, high wattages, and steep prices don't always mean peak performance.

This month, we're commemorating the agency's 10th anniversary, and to celebrate we threw ourselves a little party a couple weeks ago. It was an evening of great fun, Upstairs at the Kimberly Hotel, overlooking the lights of Midtown with the Chrysler Building as a picture-perfect backdrop.
From our start-up days as Wilson|Rusch in a loft space on 19th St., to a Midtown rooftop party 10 years later, it has certainly been an intensive journey. Looking back over the past decade, I am incredibly proud of the ethic of the people I work with — proactive, responsive, always wanting to do the right thing, and to do it well — which is clearly reflected in the caliber of the clients we've had the pleasure to work with and the quality of the work we've produced for them.
As I put myself to the task of writing this post, I considered a number of topics related to the agency anniversary but, ultimately, I settled on philosophy.
When we started the agency, the business world had just suffered the effects of the dot-com meltdown and hadn't yet been confronted with the tragedy of September 11. It was an uncertain time, made far more uncertain by events that were soon to come.
I had spent my career until that point working for others, and I was quite uncertain how I was going to fare untethered from the safety of a regular paycheck. But, I made the leap and soon learned the benefits of calculated risk-taking and the value of being able to say "I don't know."
None of us embraces such a phrase with much gusto, for in a culture that places high value on certainty, those with "answers" get our all of our attention and focus. But, as economics writer Tim Harford quite eloquently articulates in the TEDGlobal video below, there is a surprising link among complex systems that are successful: they were built through trial and error.
I won't go so far as to equate Wilson RMS with Harford's complex systems, but the lesson remains: openness to new ideas and information along with acknowledgement that answers to problems often aren't simple and obvious, leaves room for the opportunity to test and fail and learn as a path to achievement.
This is, no coincidence, the very essence of the science of direct marketing. We've been applying it propitiously for the past ten years with clients and with our business, learning and growing each step of the way.
What will the next ten years bring? I definitely don't know. But, whatever it is, we'll be ready with open minds and a desire for success.

Trunk Latch
Redneck Trailer hitch
"12′ or so utility trailer hooked to this contraption- which was attached to the car via an eye bolt through the trunk latch… At least they had the forethought to include safety chains, though they were secured to the plastic bumper with eye bolts. This was in a Lowes parking lot- I had to stay to see who came out and how much they loaded. About 1/2 dozen 2×4's, a few sheets of ply, and some drywall… Scary. It was in Athens, Tennessee."
Trunk Issues
"Trunk latch is broken so the trunk stays open and doesn't close. My dad tied a weight to it which holds it down"
Who needs a trunk latch?

A couple of months ago a friend of mine, Sarah Wight, approached me asking if I would be willing to do a video interview for her project. I had previously done a couple of photo shoots with Sarah and she is getting into photography herself (and apparently videography as well), so I gladly said yes.
She asked if she could get video of me working a shoot, so I contacted Jene' Nichole and asked if she would mind modeling for me. I had never met Jene' before, but we had wanted to work together for awhile so she happily consented to come help out.
Sarah brought another friend, one I had known only on Facebook until then, Camilla Myrrha to help out with the video. You'll see both of them together in the background of some of the pictures that I took while they were filming me.
So anyway, I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. I remember feeling quite nervous and, with Sarah's wonderful edits, I don't hardly see that at all in the video. So thank you very much Sarah, Camilla and Jene'!
Here are just a few of the pictures that I was taking of Jene' while Sarah and Camilla were filming me (you can click any of the images to jump into the gallery to view more):
While we're on the subject of video interviews ... Another friend of mine, John Shafer (often referred to as Photo_John on PhotographyReview.com), asked if I would do a "What's in My Bag" interview. Basically describing the tools that I work with - what I take with me "in my bag" to a photo session. Here is the resulting video:

One more video for you to get to know me better and see me working. The Salt Lake City SmugMug group asked me to come and present a workshop on "The Perfect Pose". I'm not sure I have found the "perfect pose" as yet, but I really enjoyed teaching this workshop. Thanks go out to Jeremy Hall for recording this and to the beautiful Lorrayne (a photographer herself!) and her hubby Davi for modeling for me!
Finally, you can see more of the pictures that I did for Lorrayne and Davi's engagement session on my blog here: Lorrayne and Davi

Operational objectives seem like they should be part of every business's plan. It makes little sense to have long-term goals without an idea of how to reach them and what to do if something changes during the process.
I think they can be especially useful in non-profits, like the World Wildlife Fund, which could use operational objectives to address some of its campaigns - which also allows for changing the plan should a government change regulations which effect the campaign.

Eat The Wafflez
Junior Member
So I build a damage as a damage should. Focus on killing the monsters and attacking other players when they are too far out. Built attack damage, lifesteal, attack speed, and critical chance increase. I am only level 5 summoner so I don't have much in terms of penetration of the armor. Long story made short...a player with over 4,000 hp was able to kill me in 8 seconds. This is confusing. I've had to place all of my gold to find an optimal attack damage to be a threat...meanwhile, this player who was not even doing good (low CS and kill/assist) was able to roll me without a thought. And then he rolled another carry on our team. And walked away. Not to mention his cleavers were invisible so I could not dodge them. I took most the dmg from melee...from a champion with no attack damage built. Seems stupid. So bottom of line: Why even pretend this game is competitive when simple mechanics, like hp stacking, outweigh the weighted decision of gearing a ADC champion. Ryze stacks mana which gave him too much HP - he in turn stun+nuked me in one rotation. I cannot even see his AP bonus as his spells benefit from mana. So he is not just a glass cannon - it is impossible to tell what his actual strength is. This went on all night. After 8 matches I have determined that this game is a fan-promoted circle-jerk that appeals only to those that cannot win in a game with actual skill. When Activision/Blizzard releases their MOBA - say goodbye to being worth anything. You know the Koreans will drop Riot on their face for another fan-favorite. tl;dr: This game has no idea how to balance and as such - low level play is torture and I'm sure it isn't any better top tier.
Senior Member
If anything right now tanks are underpowered. If you would like feel free to add me in game and I can help you out with any issues you're having. If you're only level 5 with 8 matches played you couldn't possibly have a real sense of how the game is played, trust me. The fact that League is balanced is pretty well documented by the fact that the win rates on almost all champions hovers around 50%, with "overpowered" champions being in the 54-55% range. I will agree that low level play is torture. It helps to play with people that do know what they're doing though. Like I said, add me in game and we'll see if we can get you to have a more fun game =)
Sorry Feedbro - I am quitting. After this night I do not determine this game is worth trying to learn. That the only true appeal is to think that you will one day be "pro." The enjoyment factor outside of competitive play is zero. Bots are designed to be ******* so that isn't a viable play option. I will await Activision/Blizzard's MOBA and see how that goes. Till then - it's back to Minecraft.
I had a lot of fun playing Lulu this week. I favor ranged ADCs though, my favorite/most played being Kog'maw first guy I bought. It felt great working playing him the whole week he was free and earning those 4800 points playing him. I'll probably end up doing that with each week (I did it with Lux too). It helps me gain experience playing the characters. I'd imagine the ones that cost less are a lot easier to grasp onto. Off topic: I added you in game, Feedbro! Could always use pointers.
When ppl leave , why do they post in the forum about it ? Do hey want a hug or something ? They want us to comfort them and say "pwez don weave uz Q.Q" ? They think they make us feel bad ? They think Riot will ever consider their opinion cause they Q.Q in the forum instead of asking in the Support ? They think that the game is losing a great player and a customer ? pffffff Goodbye and good riddance . Yous shall not be missed . Downvote me all you want , but i'm gonna say what Barney Stinson said a million times , ............"True Story"
Cynical Rain
It took me about two weeks of playing with a friend that's very good to actually start enjoying it. Finding the right champion to start is not so easy as there are so many different styles. Low level when you know nothing about the game is pretty tough... I had to endure the pain until about level 15 xD Started in November and now nearing Level 26 and having fun... yet there are still frustrating games, and always will be.

O'Reilly All Stars To Open Winternationals At Ocala
OCALA, FL- For the third year running, Florida's oldest speedway, the historic Ocala Speedway located just off I-75 in Marion County, is hosting the O'Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions 410 Sprint Cars to open the 2011 Winternationals events. And as sprint car enthusiasts have come to know, the events at Ocala Speedway will once again be the most affordable way for fans to see these alcohol fueled machines in action, with adult gate admission a mere $20 and $25 for each of the two scheduled nights of racing.
Action will begin on Thursday, February 3rd, as racers will take advantage of a 6PM practice session to test their prowess on Ocala's tricky 3/8ths mile layout. The old D-shaped track has a reputation for chewing up and spitting out racers who are unaccustomed to it's tight turn 4, and spectators will be welcomed to come and watch as the sprinters attempt to acquaint themselves with the track. Joining the All Stars will be the Florida Mini Sprint Association who are far more familiar with Ocala's quirks, and spectators can pay $15 admission, wander the pit area, and view the on track activities from the turn 1 bleacher area.
Racing action will begin the following evening as the O'Reilly All Stars and the Florida Mini Sprints will hit the clay at 8PM on Friday, February 4th. Adult admission for Friday night's action is only $20, with the grandstand gate open at 5PM for early birds. Fans will also have the option of shopping at the souvenir trailers that will be located outside of the grandstand gate and next to the parking area, before entering the grandstand area and claiming prime viewing spots for the night's action.
Saturday night will also include more alcohol fueled winged action as the O'Reilly All Stars return, and the Florida Mini Sprints will take a final shot at Ocala's gumbo clay. Adult admission for the February 5th races is $25, and again the souvenir trailers will be present to outfit race fans in all of the latest fan gear.
An added bonus for sprint car fans is that the Ocala Winternational events draw racers not only from the O'Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions, but also a list of teams from series like the World of Outlaws as well. Ocala offers one of the very few opportunities for these teams to get some competitive seat time before the DIRTcar Nationals at Volusia Speedway Park the following week, so teams are usually anxious to take advantage of the situation.
For the Florida Mini Sprints, Ocala's Winternationals will open their season by offering seat time on what is probably the most difficult circuit they will face in 2011. Last year's Winternationals drew a long list of Florida racers, plus mini sprint teams from as far away as the Carolinas as well.

Efes Pilsen – A nice beer, but the worst bottle for your standard stubbie cooler
Efes Pilsen Beer Bottle = Oversized!
Most people who travel to Australia marvel at the invention that is the Stubbie Cooler. These are typically made of wetsuit-like material that is used to keep your beer cold longer, whilst making it comfortable to hold without obtaining frostbite when you are trying to quench your thirst. Most standard beer bottles will fit into one of these coolers – except for one. Efes Pilsen is a Turkish Beer – and quite a nice drop. It's nice to have one after you've finished haggling for a carpet. It's a light, pale kind of beer which is nice on a very hot day.
Unfortunately, Efes Pilsen is usually contained in a 500 ml bottle that is way too wide for any Stubbie Cooler, hence, one has to drink it faster before it warms up and it feels like you are only drinking the dregs that are left.
The Efes Pilsen Beer Bottle
I've included a picture of a 500 ml Efes bottle on top of one of my dodgy standard stubbie coolers that I have at home below for comparison. See how it is way too wide for the stubbie cooler? (Sorry to my New Zealand friends! – if I still have any!)
However, the silver lining for this problem is that I guess there is an emerging market out there for an enterprising individual to produce Efes Pilsen-fitting stubbie coolers! Necessity is the mother of invention, so maybe I should have a crack at creating a flood of Efes Stubbie coolers and become a very rich man.. maybe!
You could use it in conjunction with this 'Buy Me A Beer, I'm Turkish' T-Shirt. Hmm, that might be a little bit daggy actually!
More Efes Pilsen Stuff
Check out more at Beverage Companies of Turkey: Beer and Breweries in Turkey. Well, Efes is the dominant player in the Turkish market, and that's pretty much all you can drink there for most of the time – but that's not such a bad thing!

Hi Tart,
I have a cooler for Efes beer bottles I picked it up in Turkey Anzac Day 2000! The problem it only fits Efes Beer!
Nick -
I'd like to try this beer. I wonder I where can I get a six pack of Efes beer bottle here in Sydney? Do they even sell this beer in Australia?
Who knew that Turkey of all places was the stop to get a good beer? LOL Thanks for the heads up. And by the way, I find it very sad that you have to drink it faster than you would like to.
I had this Turkish beer recently in Japan and was pretty impressed with it (it came in a more stubbie cooler friendly bottle too).
Sucks having a cooler than only cools 1 brand of beer, but i suspose it antoher way for them to amke money :).

Michael Jordan par for system
Lots of folks are all wee-wee'd up in regards to the snarky outbursts by Serena Williams, Roger Federer, Michael Jordan, Kanye West, Joe Wilson, the new York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays, assorted higher education soccer people, the attractive people who vandalized Expenses cornerback Leodis McKelvin's lawn after that unfortunate Monday night decline towards the Patriots, and much more. It appears -- once again -- that Western Civilization will hell in pretty minimal handbasket, and in some cases ESPN's Outdoors the Lines: Earliest Report was moved on Tuesday to inquire a panel of analysts if our society is struggling a unexpected lack of civility.
This space humbly wishes to consult: When had been we at any time civil?
This complete decade happens to be affected by talk clearly show hosts shouting down and flushing attendees and listeners, smack converse from athletes, celebs and polticians, and also pleasantries like Detroit's Malice Within the Palace or Todd Bertuzzi's attack on Steve Moore. The '90s experienced Tonya Harding, supporter riots in Denver, and Mike Tyson coming from the spool. The '80s were being more or less looked after by Andrew Dice Clay, George Steinbrenner, Billy Martin, Bobby Knight and John McEnroe. The '70's had George and Billy, too, moreover the rise of shock jocks on radio, and Kermit Washington virtually killing Rudy Tomjanovich all through an on-court brawl. The 60's had riots and antiwar protests and Juan Marichal clubbing John Roseboro. The 50's had fans in Montreal tossing a riot right after Rocket Richard was suspended, additionally African American athletes serving as lightning rods for racists upon Jackie Robinson arrived inside 1940s, a decade that presented a alternatively nasty Community War.
We've hardly skimmed the area of any 10 years, therefore you can return to indicate outdated Ty Cobb acquiring passing away threats and, perhaps, justifying them with his habits with the wooly period around the switch of the century. Heck, you might see riots and dust-ups and standard rudeness carrying the days when Romans raced chariots. Which matches to show there exist no First-rate Outdated Days. As Bob Dylan sings, "It's all quality."
Kimbo Does Casey
Is Kimbo Casey reincarnated?
From our MMA article comes the following Q with an individual Mr. Kimbo Slice. Even though looking at his responses, it transpired to this place that he was channeling the departed spirit of Casey "The Ol' Perfesser" Stengel. Distinction and compare and contrast:
Kimbo: Mentally, I do not let very little get within the technique for whatever now. The difference with that fight was that Ken [Shamrock] failed to fight. So, mentally Joe Flacco Jersey, I understood I wasn't gonna fight no increased, so I kinda unwound. The hearth blazed down. I'd me a drink, and i was just chilling, and i reported, 'Let's just go and watch one other fights.' And then once we obtained there it absolutely was like, 'Hey you're going to struggle.' But mentally, I wasn't there any longer. After i walked with the cage with Seth, basically, I used to be going from the motions.
Casey: I had quite a few decades that I used to be not so lucrative being a ballplayer, because it is a really sport of ability. And then I was little doubt discharged by baseball wherein I had to go back with the minimal leagues as the supervisor, and following staying from the minimal leagues for a supervisor, I grew to become a serious league supervisor in several cities and was discharged, we name it "discharged," when you consider that there's no query I'd to go away. And i returned to your slight leagues at Milwaukee, Kansas Metropolis, and Oakland, and then returned towards principal leagues.
Brain Drain
Artist's conception of Pacman's new mind.
We see that a few active NFL players -- Matt Birk (Ravens), Lofa Tutupu (Seahawks) and Sean Morey (Cardinals) -- have agreed to donate their gray make any difference to science, presumably following they are executed with it. Sure, a very good many people have expressed shock that NFL gamers have brains, which outdated wag Jay Leno observed that Brett Favre's will not be taken considering he's likely to alter his intellect and wish it back again. But in all seriousness, the Boston University/Sports Legacy Institute software for the research of brain injuries is a really worthy a particular that may even lead to a feasible transplant for Pacman Jones together with other seemingly hopeless denizens of police lineups and unsavory tabloid headlines.
Out Within the Avenue
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman can sympathize using the plight for the Dream.
The WNBA's Atlanta Desire needn't feel by itself or shame while in the wake of their remaining booted beyond Philips Arena by a Sesame Road extravaganza scheduled during the initial round in the playoffs. Such is lifetime among the stepchildren within the sports globe. NHL teams similar to the Big apple Rangers without doubt understand what you'll find it like. Regardless that they've long been a marquee tenant for the world prominent Madison Square Backyard garden, the Rangers have taken a again seat to some circus and also performed Stanley Cup Final (!!!) "home games" in Toronto in 1950. Last period, the Penguins experienced to play scarce back-to-back playoff online games on account of a Yanni gig at Pittsburgh's Mellon Arena. As well as in January, the Canucks shall be compelled into your longest street journey in NHL history -- 6 months and 14 video games -- as a result of the Winter months Olympic circus coming to Vancouver. Okay, currently being squeezed out by the Olympics isn't going to relatively fry your shorts like owning to generate way for Tremendous Hen, even so the NFL won't seem to have to place up with this particular stuff.
The Undead
Hampton: Even now not conducted.
If Brett Favre and Claude Lemieux weren't plenty of evidence the modern day athlete under no circumstances is aware of when to go away and continue to be away, we've got Michael Jordan threatening a comeback and 41-year old firebrand Theoren Fleury attempting a return with the NHL along with the Calgary Flames immediately following six a long time. (Lemieux's comeback while using the Sharks last period at age 43 lasted all of 19 games just before he made a decision to hang 'em again up, but certainly not say by no means once more, eh?).
Meanwhile Anquan Boldin Jersey, there can be individuals that, inside a fashion of talking, die and fail to remember to lie down. Situation in place: pitcher Mike Hampton, who went in the Houston Astros' DL this week for rotator cuff medical procedures that may retain him out next season. As a result of groin, calf, elbow, oblique, hamstring, pectoral and shoulder woes (his eyes are all that stay unscathed), Hampton, 37, has managed to toss in all of 46 games for the reason that start of 2005, experiencing sat out all of 2006 and '07. What is basically scary is always that Astro 3rd sacker Aaron Boone has opined, "I could see him coming again, because he is experienced a great many injuries. To his credit score, he's frequently fought back. He normally takes of himself, and he's in outstanding form." At that charge, Hampton will pitch -- on and off -- before he is 80 or very does go belly-up, whichever arrives very first.
Unfounded Rumor of your Week
Olympic brand keep track of
If our ham radio is coming in correctly -- the cloves and pineapple slices don't appear to improve reception all that considerably -- the virtuous organizers of the 2010 Wintertime Olympics in Vancouver are intending to flood the streets with ruthless mechanized "monitors" entrusted aided by the stunning electrical power to confiscate "non-Olympic material" that "violates the Olympic go through."
According to our no-particular-reason-to-doubt-'em sources in pretty Lausanne, Switzerland, the Worldwide Olympic Committee jumped unpleasant together with the Vancouverl organizers, demanding beet-faced they ensure that all venues are kept "clean" of commercial, political or religious publicity, vermin, riff-raff, undesirables, small children, cute animals, and nearly anything that does not bear the brand of an authorized sponsor displayed just where it may be clearly noticed constantly, this kind of as on the forehead. Any person not so adorned can be hauled off and certainly not heard from once more.

Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -- P.J. Carlesimo is convinced after a month on the job: The Brooklyn Nets are a winning team.
He still needs to see, even after one of the best months in franchise history, if they can consistently be one against the teams already at that level.
Well, here comes their chance.
The Nets begin a tough three-game stretch Wednesday night against LeBron James and the NBA champion Miami Heat, who have won the last 12 meetings and remain the league's standard in Carlesimo's eyes.
"They're the best team in the league until somebody beats them," Carlesimo said Tuesday after practice. "Maybe when the year's out and we've played 82 games, somebody will have a better record than them. But they're still the champions and they're still going to the finals on a pretty regular basis, so until somebody knocks them off, this to me is the barometer you measure against and we haven't shown yet that we can beat these guys. So that's a huge challenge for us."
So are the Chicago Bulls at home Friday, and the Los Angeles Lakers next Tuesday. Starting Wednesday on ESPN, it's the kind of high-profile stretch that can earn the Nets, who may be a little overlooked despite a 27-18 record, some added respect within the league.
"It's a nice stretch for us," guard Joe Johnson said. "I wouldn't say a tough one, but it's a nice one and we should be ready and prepared for this challenge. But we're going to start first with Miami and try to get over that hump."
The Heat (28-13) already beat the Nets twice this season -- "smacked," says Carlesimo, who described another Nets defeat as "annihilated," apparently believing that when the Nets fall, "losing" isn't enough of a description.
Fortunately for them, it hasn't happened often since Carlesimo was promoted to interim coach when Avery Johnson was fired Dec. 27.
They have since gone 13-4, winning eight straight at home and pulling within 1 1/2 games of the neighboring Knicks for first place in the Atlantic Division. The Nets have tied a franchise record for the most wins in January (11) and can equal their best total in any month with a victory Wednesday.
Along the way, they won at Oklahoma City and New York, the kind of performances that give the Nets reason for confidence going into this stretch.
"When we play the way we're capable of playing ... we've beaten a couple of the better teams in the league, even on the road, so we just got to play," Carlesimo said. "We're playing in our place, which is a huge plus for us."
The Nets rebounded from their first two-game losing streak under Carlesimo with a 97-77 victory over Orlando on Monday. Yet Carlesimo was still dwelling Tuesday on the losses last week at Memphis and Houston that saddled them with a 2-2 mark on a road trip which began with an impressive victory over the Knicks.
"After the steps we took back last week, we have to show that we can be -- not that we can be good, we've established that -- but that we can be good consistently and that we can be good against the better teams," Carlesimo said.
In case anyone needed a reminder of the Heat's status, they got it Monday when the team visited the White House to be honored by President Obama for their 2012 NBA title. James said the experience was like, "Mama, I made it."
The reigning league MVP has been efficient against the Nets this season, averaging 20.5 points on 55.6 percent shooting along with 10.5 rebounds and 7.0 assists.
Dwyane Wade, though, has been the offensive star in the season series, averaging 28.0 points and shooting 70.6 percent from the floor in the two victories, both in Miami.
The Heat had their four-game winning streak snapped Sunday with a 100-98 double-overtime loss at Boston. James had 34 points, a season-high 16 rebounds, seven assists and three steals as Miami shot just 40.6 percent -- its third-worst mark of the season.
Brooklyn has held opponents to 42.4 percent shooting during its eight-game run at home.

Considered a landmark of twentieth-century intellectual history, this is Martin Buber's classic treatment of the religious and social dimensions of the human personality.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
I and Thou, Martin Buber's classic philosophical work, is among the 20th century's foundational documents of religious ethics. "The close association of the relation to God with the relation to one's fellow-men ... is my most essential concern," Buber explains in the Afterword. Before discussing that relationship, in the book's final chapter, Buber explains at length the range and ramifications of the ways people treat one another, and the ways they bear themselves in the natural world. "One should beware altogether of understanding the conversation with God ... as something that occurs merely apart from or above the everyday," Buber explains. "God's address to man penetrates the events in all our lives and all the events in the world around us, everything biographical and everything historical, and turns it into instruction, into demands for you and me." Throughout I and Thou, Buber argues for an ethic that does not use other people (or books, or trees, or God), and does not consider them objects of one's own personal experience. Instead, Buber writes, we must learn to consider everything around us as "You" speaking to "me," and requiring a response. Buber's dense arguments can be rough going at times, but Walter Kaufmann's definitive 1970 translation contains hundreds of helpful footnotes providing Buber's own explanations of the book's most difficult passages. --Michael Joseph Gross
About the Author:Author Bio
MARTIN BUBER (1878-1965) was a Jewish philosopher, theologian, Bible translator, and editor of Hasidic tradition. He was also known as one of the paramount spiritual leaders of the twentieth century and is best known as the author of I and Thou--the basic formulation of his philosophy of dialogue--and for his appreciation of Hasidism, which made a deep impact on Christian as well as Jewish thinkers. Fleeing Nazi Germany in 1938, he immigrated to Israel, where he taught social philosophy at the Hebrew University.
Translator Bio
WALTER KAUFMANN (1921-1980) was professor of philosophy at Princeton University. Born in Freiburg, Germany, in 1921, he graduated from Williams College in 1941 and returned to Europe with US Military Intelligence during World War II. In 1947, he received his PhD from Harvard and joined the Princeton faculty. He held visiting professorships at many American universities and Fulbright professorships at Heidelberg and at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. His books include Nietzsche, Critique of Religion and Philosophy, From Shakespeare to Existentialism, The Faith of a Heretic, Cain and Other Poems, Hegel, and Tragedy and Philosophy. His works of translation have been highly lauded.

What models are you guys using? What amp selection? I'm thinking about getting something with piezos and not really sure what the options are. Do I need a 2nd amp? Thanks for the input guys.
I have a P22 and an HBII, both with piezo. Both have two outputs, one for piezo and the other for magnetic, although the magnetic jack serves both sets of pickups if you use only one cable. You can use two amps or just one. The piezo through a clean amp sounds spectacular.
(513 / P22 / McShootout / DC 245 Ted / DGT / DC22 / Santana / Cu22 Rosewood / 408 Rosewood / SAS / Cu22 Semi hollow / Mira korina / HBII / SE Angelus Custom / SE Mushok) >> {Archon, C, H, Dallas}
I have the HB2 and I plug it in the PA system. I use a Radial PZ.DI (the new model is called PZ Select - http://www.tonebone.com/tb-pzselect.htm), so I switch between piezo and magnetic with my foot and I only use a TRS cable instead of 2.
P22 - If I'm feeling froggy or need to cover the complete acoustic / electric tone palate - I run the Mag side to the regular pedal board / amp and the Piezo to a Fishman Aura then to the PA. You could run the Fishman in to a Loud box or other acoustic amp.
You can run the combined signal right into a clean amp and it sounds pretty dang good too.
I set my rig up like Bryan with a volume pedal to control the electric side as he suggests:

25th HB2 - acoustic out I use an AER acoustic amp or DI straight to desk and mag only to amp.
CE24 with a Graph Tech Ghost. I run it through an Axe FX Ultra (it can run 2 inputs with totally separate signal chains to one output).
Sounds incredible.
I use a Fishman Loudbox Mini. It is great for home use. I get a very nice sound running the mixed mag into the clean side of my PT100.

Hi, I just bought a P22 and want to confirm. So the mag input jack on the guitar accepts a TRS cable, and I can use a Tonebone PZ-Select pedal to then switch between piezo and 53/10 pickups? Thanks!
After watching that video, I really want a P22 now. I'd have to sell my beloved CS Telecaster to do so, and probably won't. But I'm tempted.

*Terms and conditions apply
Real reviews, from customers like you.
Although we are 'country folks' this location wouldn't suit some, as the lodges are on a sheep farm, with the 'Beauly Lodge' right beside farm buildings.
my holiday went well it is a really nice place and i have told a few friends. i can not really comment on staff as i only saw them once.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week here. Beautiful scenery and fantastic people.
A wonderfully peaceful location. Fantastic views.
Beautiful, private location, Barbara and Donald are very welcoming, and attentive, but, also leave you alone to enjoy your break away.
Ideal peaceful surroundings.Lovely helpful friendly owners
2nd time we have stayed here perfect for a peaceful holiday or base to tour the Highlands
The beautiful views, peace and serenity here are second to none. The lodges are situated on a working farm and the fact that there are only three lodges adds to the welcoming attitude of the owners. The surrounding area is packed with places to visit, there is so much to do up there, we managed to cover only the 'Black Isle', will have to go back in future years !
FABulous x
We had a wonderful time. Location was perfect for us as we wanted to sightsee during the day and spend our evenings in a quiet/ relaxing environment.
Superb location. Wonderful views.
Fantastic lodges in beautiful setting. Would highly recommend for an 'escape from it all' break.
Beautiful Lodges, they have everything you need and more, are also tidy and very well maintained :)
Lovely lodge set in peaceful surroundings which made for a very relaxing break.

A Week of Mothers – Day 1
May 5, 2009
First up in our week of interviews is Rubyellen Bratcher, the creative mind behind Cakies. Welcome, Rubyellen!
Describe what you do as an artist.
There are lots of things I like to make and lots of things I wish I had time to make. Though with the time I do have, I make wool felt crowns for children and felt hair accessories for girls and mamas. On occasion, I will offer what I like to call "once-in-awhiles " in my shop, which may consist of bags or dolls. This allows me the opportunity to break from the norm and make other fun things and offer it to everyone!
Motherhood is a full-time job and then some. What keeps you inspired and motivated to create?
This will probably sound like a cliche, but my girls are my biggest inspiration to keep creating. Since, I am a SAHM (or I guess you can say a WAHM), I am constantly trying to come up with new ideas to make for and with them. I love engaging them creatively and they are just as excited about making something as I am. Another thing is that I have a big shopping bug, but not the budget to fund it, thus I love sewing and making "new" things for my girls that way. I also find inspiration from lots of other super duper lovely blogs, it helps keep me dreaming up ideas.
I've learned that being a stay-at-home mom and business owner/artist does not have to be mutually exclusive. How do you maintain a balance between the two?
Balance is getting harder for me these days. Nap times were my times to work, but with True's naps down to one a day, getting work in has been much harder. Thankfully, my husband and I have been figuring out ways to give me work days, where he will watch the girls for a day and leave me with some uninterrupted work time. I think the key is to enjoy what you are doing and thankfully I do. It is also important for me to make "other" things that I don't sell. This really keeps things fresh for me and allows me to the drive to keep the business owner/artist part of me going, but my number priority will always be mom.
As an artist, what do you hope to pass on to your children?
The ability to dream. I think the biggest part of being an artist, which I think odd to think of myself in that way, is the ability to dream. I get such satisfaction from thinking up an idea, following through with it and seeing a final product. It feels good to see something that was in your head become real.
True draws very well, at least I think so, but I don't have many kids to compare her to, so I don't know what normal is. She sees things in shapes and when we are out and about she will point out all the shapes. Then, later in her sketchbook, she will put together those shapes to make a picture. Her drawings seem to be good for a three year old. And my Brave, well, she can eat…a lot. She then manages to make the most amazing abstract paintings of her food on her bib. I am sure she will continue to perfect this art as she grows.
And lastly, what do you wish for this mother's day?
I would really like some Bewitched magic, so that my house would be clean in a twitch of my nose or I guess a painting done by Ben and my girls (I think handmade gifts are the best) or a vintage locket will do (and a trip to the flea market). Am I allowed to have more than one wish? (Of course!!)
Thank you Rubyellen!

Wow your artist friend Rubyellen has an amazing eye. I hopped over to her blog and enjoyed her photography and her daughter's (Trulilock's) party.

Totally know what she means about naptime being "productive" time.
It's hard, b/c sometimes now it ends up cutting into me and my hubby time which is not good.

Rubyellen is one of the most creative and sweetest people ever! She is destined for greatness (though I think she already is in her wonderful family!!)
