Glass From The Past
Luminous and tactile, these ravishing clusters of recycled glass are handmade by artist Laura Bergman from the crushed remains of antique beer, soda and dairy bottles (multi-colored) and Mason jars (blue) dating between 1900 and 1960. Scouring the rural woodlands of Pennsylvania Amish Country to collect stray bottles posing an environmental hazard to local wildlife, Bergman carefully cleans and fuses artful morsels into light-catching drops that preserve the original ruby, green, navy and amber-tinted glass. To create the crisp, blue pendants, Bergman uses 1940s-era Mason Jars exclusively.
Each set fuses a beautiful moment in time from the early decades of the historic 20th century.
Dime-sized lightweight glass pendants hang on shapely sterling silver hooks. Includes an item-specific story detailing the age and origin of the glass used. Handmade of recycled glass and sterling silver in the USA. Each pair sold separately.
Due to the reclaimed and handmade nature of these earrings, each piece will vary.
Exclusively at UncommonGoods.

Laura Bergman
An avid antique glass and bottle collector, artist Laura Bergman lives near a wooded area with multiple antique bottle dumps. "It always bothered me how, as a collector, we take away the pretty whole bottles, but leave the broken pieces behind," she says.
After seeing a baby fawn laying among these pieces one day, and having had one of her dogs return from a walk with his feet cut, she decided to pick up the pieces of this lovely antique glass and use them to create jewelry and gifts.
Each of her pieces is handmade from 100% reclaimed antique glass from these dumps. Being a bottle collector for many years, Laura has researched and collected the history behind each type of glass. Each piece truly is "A Little Piece of History for You to Wear".

Is eating a chore for you?

#1Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:09 AM
I don't know why this is happening but I suppose my anxiety is to blame.
I just can't make myself eat. Sometimes I wonder how I'm still alive on the amount I have been eating in the last couple of months. I end up eating barely one full meal every few days, and it's mostly starchy bland stuff like bread, pasta, potato... This is all I can manage. I know I have gotten into a habit. I don't even want chocolate anymore. I get hungry, sure, I get starving, but I look in my pantry and my stomach turns at the thought of eating anything in there. I have dropped 3.5kg in the last 3 weeks, a lot when you take into account the fact I don't exercise at all (except for housework). I'm getting indigestion constantly, stomach pains, dizziness, tiredness but can't sleep. This is all from not eating. I know it's bad. I don't want to lose weight, I'm not deliberately starving myself, I just can't eat. I'm not underweight for my height yet, but is still can't be good for me. So far today all I have managed to eat is a salads and a slice of cheese. It made me hungrier, but there's nothing else I want. I just can't clear the fog in my brain to think of something to eat. I don't know how to approach is. I know it's all in my head but I don't know how to get it out. #2Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:16 AM
You need to see your GP for a start and get checked out and a referral for a cousellor or go and see a phych/counsellor etc off your back. Have you had an eating disorder before? You may be well on the way to developing one now if you are not careful.
Good luck. #3Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:18 AM
I forget to eat or am just too busy or would rather work through lunch so I can leave a bit earlier or just can't be bother because of the effort and mess. Often all I will have is coffee until dinner and then just eat the kids left overs.
Or just eat toast butter and vegimite with tea. Or chocolate. But it sounds like this is new for you and so something else going on? #4Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:20 AM
OP, I really think you need to go and visit your GP about this, the sooner the better.
#5Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:24 AM
I have never had an eating disorder before but I do tend to accidentally 'starve' myself in this way when my anxiety is at its worst, which is usually all through summer.
The potential for this to develop into a full blown eating disorder has started to freak me out. I looked in the mirror last night while starving and thought "Well, I do look good, maybe this isn't such a bad thing," then was immediately horrified that I could think like that. I have had fleeting thoughts of "If I start eating properly I'll put it all back on." The other night I was hungry and felt like eating frozen peas. Got a bowl, went to the freezer, discovered we were out of peas. So I ate nothing. Even though I was starving. I find myself thinking WTF am I doing to myself?! #6Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:25 AM

But what can a doctor do? I have had counselling/medication for my anxiety before.
#8Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:29 AM
I suffer the same sort of feelings when I am anxious about something. eg. something kid health related. I can't seem to 'eat' anything and I just stuff a couple of mouthfuls in my mouth and that's about all I can tolerate. I can't even stand the thought of cooking when I get like this. I really have to talk myself into and keep repeating positive thoughts in my head so I can get over the anxiety. So I can relate to you totally.
However, once the worst of my anxiety passes, usually within a couple of days, I go back to normal. Definately get some help- don't let it get out of hand. You need to be there for your kids - see your GP asap. Talk to someone close to you about it too, if you can.

Sounds like you need a psychologist to help you with the 'self talk' in your head. Maybe investigate that option.
#10Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:35 AM QUOTE But what can a doctor do? I have had counselling/medication for my anxiety before. A doctor can do plenty of things, not only do you need reassess your counselling/medication for your anxiety, but the GP may be able to assess you for a physical reason for loss of appetite, indigestion, stomach cramps etc. You definitely need to get checked out. #11Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:38 AM
That is a serious problem if you are hungry and not eating. And you have recognised those thought patterns to be concerning. You have young children and you need to be healthy for them. Any obsession with food is not good for you or them and it will inevitably impact on them too.
#12Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:45 AM
Is it true that your stomach 'shrinks' if you starve yourself? My mum used to say this when I was younger and the same thing would happen, she said "Your stomach has shrunk, you need to eat and stretch it again." I think it,s more habit than that but still.
#13Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:45 AM
I get like this sometimes, mostly when it's really really hot. I could be really hungry but if nothing appeals to me, I'll just drink a bottle of water. A couple of times i have done this all day until dinner.
Most days all i eat is morning tea and then lunch just before i go and get the kids from school. DH (and our mates) do get a little concerned sometimes, especially as most days i weigh less than 50kg but i'm not worried because what i do eat, fills me up and it's mostly not junk food. You should still go and see a GP, just in case it is something physical rather than (or in addition to) your anxiety. ETA: I'm not sure if the shrinking stomach thing is real but it feels like it to me lol. I get full off a meal that my 3y/o would demolish and ask for dessert after. Edited by WhatWouldBuffyDo, 22 January 2013 - 09:48 AM. #14Posted 22 January 2013 - 09:51 AM
I also think you need to go to the dr. They may not be able to do anything but they can refer you to people who can help you.
#15Posted 22 January 2013 - 10:01 AM
Yes your stomach can shrink. I would be getting some liquid food for starters and getting something into me quick smart. Starving your body is bad bad news. If eating is a chore then treat it like one - just something you have to do, and do it.
Edited by steppy, 22 January 2013 - 10:02 AM. #16Posted 22 January 2013 - 10:02 AM
I'm thinking your symptoms are a sign of something else, maybe depression or an eating disorder. Please go and see a GP today and get the help that you need.
Please take care xx #17Posted 22 January 2013 - 10:03 AM
I have continued to drink milk, usually in the form of Milo, but still. Skim milk (full fat upsets my stomach), about a cup per day. I'm planning to shop later and get some apples and carrots, they are strangely the only two things that are really appealing to me right now. Odd because I usually don't like fruit or raw veges.
#18Posted 22 January 2013 - 10:12 AM
Once you have established (with help of a GP etc) that there are no physical reasons, then I'd recommend seeing someone who looks at the psychological side of things..
I've had problems in the past with anxiety and that made me overeat / obsess to the point that I was constantly thinking about food and could not enjoy eating at all any more (even though I did still eat). What helped me at the time was seeing a lady that did a mix of counselling, hypnotherapy and NLP. It helped me get to the bottom of my anxiety (which for me had nothing to do with food initially but family and other reasons, that might be totally different for you). It is hard to explain 'how' exactly it worked, but after a few sessions I was so much more calm, relaxed and I thought about food less and less. Worth a try. Where do you live? I can PM you contact details... #19Posted 22 January 2013 - 11:05 AM
Please do see your GP. If this is a new thing, it's a worry.
Eating used to be a chore for me for a long time - as a child I used to wish I could get the meal replacement tablets they give astronauts. Then I started eating a lot of junk food because that was less of a chore. One year I lived 90% on chocolate milk (was in college and food was crap). Now I'm trying to be healthy I end up skipping meals because I can't eat my junk food but can't be bothered fixing up something healthy. Most eating I do is actually boredom eating. But... this is a lifelong thing, and has been sustainable if unhealthy. Yours sounds like a new thing and you'd starve if it kept on. It needs to be addressed. QUOTE (erindiv @ 22/01/2013, 10:28 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But what can a doctor do? I have had counselling/medication for my anxiety before. And did it work? Are you still on the meds? There's no 'quick fix' - clearly you are still suffering the anxiety, so still need treatment. Different treatment from what you had, if that didn't work - or more of what you had if it did. And yes, go get your apples and carrots, do whatever it takes to find yourself stuff you can eat. Milk is fine but a cup isn't going to cut it for long. And maybe grab some multivites so that even if you are short on food, your body is getting some of the stuff it needs from another source. Worst comes to worst, there are meal replacement drinks you can get, not sure if they taste nice but better than nothing because at least you can gulp them down and the chore is quicker! Hope it improves OP. #20Posted 22 January 2013 - 11:10 AM
I used to drink a lot of meal replacement drinks in high school as being bullied there ramped up my anxiety and I couldn't eat for quite a while. I don't remember ever having a 'normal' eating pattern, I either under eat or over eat.
I was on paroxetine which made me suicidal. Counselling, bringing everything to the surface, made me even worse as it was like 'feeding' the anxiety. Trying to nibble constantly today. Will shop later. Thanks for all the advice. #21Posted 22 January 2013 - 11:22 AM
Definitely go shopping for anything that you feel like eating - what about some of those breakfast drinks like Up'n'go, at least you are getting a few nutrients in there.
Watermelon is my favourite thing at the moment, it's just so nice to have when it's hot and I'm not really hungry (though I'm usually hungry so I always have something else as well!) I second all the suggestions to talk to your GP - firstly to make sure that there isn't anything physical going on (I knew I was sick when I couldn't eat chocolate years ago and it turned out that I had glandular fever) and next to ask for a referral to someone who can help with some strategies for dealing with your anxiety and the eating. Good luck with the getting to the bottom of this, and well done for recognising that this isn't healthy and that you need to do something about it. #22Posted 22 January 2013 - 11:30 AM QUOTE But what can a doctor do? I have had counselling/medication for my anxiety before. This response alone ahould be a warning for you. Your rationalisations for not eating etc are very alarming, and you are stepping on a very slippery slope. Go to a doctor and get it sorted. You are not thinking clearly and need help to do so. #23Posted 22 January 2013 - 11:46 AM
Doctor Visit needed.
As other PP's have alluded - your thinking is not staight. There may be something physiological that is triggering a psychological response which in turn drives your behaviour. Or vice versa. First step is GP for a full check up - bloods, etc - check for deficiencies in things such as B/iron, and abnormalities in things like thyroid Referral to a psych to discuss your thinking regarding food - not eating when starving, your perception about looking good so maybe your behaviour is not a bad thing and your pre-existing anxiety and how that may be interferring with your cognition and behaviour. That you posted this is a strong indication that you realise that your current thinking and behaviour patterns are out of character. Act now, OP. #24Posted 22 January 2013 - 01:29 PM
Go to the doc to get help. You may not think you need help but you do. So for nothing else go for the sake of your children.

Hi OP, (usual EB disclaimer: this is not professional advice, just my opinion). Anxiety and disordered eating (over or under eating) have a strong tendency to go hand in hand. The hormones involved inour "flight or fight" reaction are also involved in digestion. When we are in a flight or scenario, it makes sense that our body diverts resources away from "secondary" functions, like digestion, so that our body can focus on the important tasks (like staying alert, or getting the hell out of there). After all, it is much easier to concentrate on looking for danger, if you aren't looking for food. In fact, they are so linked that changes in appetite, or significant weight change (up or down) are actually in the diagnostic criteria for anxiety disorder! Unfortunately, with anxiety, that flight or fight response is being triggered when it doesn't need to be. It becomes over-sensitive. It goes off when there is no real threat. It is a bit like having a sprinkler fire-alarm that goes off every time you make toast. Once the alarm is triggered, everything gets wet, even if there is no fire! At the moment, it sounds like that is what might be happening for you - your alarm is being triggered (your anxiety) and your body is trying to do the right thing by preparing for you to run (which results in suppressing your appetite). It sounds like you may have had a bad reaction to a specific medication in the past. The beauty is, that there are actually a whole range of anti-anxiety medications available. Some in particular are especially good at helping with some of those digestion/appetite issues. Sometimes, those drugs are even prescribed for things like irritable bowel syndrome (which is also strongly linked to stress/anxiety). I know it can be hard to talk to a GP about anxiety, especially when you are in the thick of it. When you are feeling overwhelmed, the thought of having to "explain yourself" to another person (or several) can just seem too hard. But please do. It will be worth it. I promise. 1 user(s) are reading this topic0 members, 1 guests, 0 anonymous users |

Japan: Japan Aims To Cut Deficit Next Year On Sales Tax Collection
Japan's cabinet on Tuesday approved the draft budget for the fiscal 2014 as Prime Minister Shinzo Abe targets to balance borrowing and record spending to stimulate economic recovery.
The government plans to spend a record JPY 95.88 trillion in 2014/15. The increase in expenditures for defense, public works projects and social security programs will take in general general account spending to record JPY 72.61 trillion, up by JPY 2.24 trillion from this fiscal.
At the same time, revenues are estimate to reach JPY 50 trillion, the highest in seven years, on an expected 1.4 % economic increase and planned sales tax hike.
On Saturday, the government raised the economic increase outlook for the fiscal 2014 to 1.4 % from 1 %.
The government estimates primary deficit to narrow by JPY 5.2 trillion from this year to JPY 18 trillion in fiscal 2014, which is one of the best improvements on record.
According to the draft statement, the Ministry of Finance will sell only JPY 41.25 trillion new bonds in the fiscal 2014, which is less than the JPY 1.6 trillion from this year's initial plan.
The government depends on borrowing to cover 43 % of its spending. That compares to 46.3 % this fiscal year. The government plans to submit the draft budget to parliament early next year.
Before in the day, Japan's government dropped 'deflation' from its monthly economic statement for the initial time in four years.
The Cabinet Office noted that consumer prices are firm. But, an official said it is too early to declare that deflation is over. In last month's statement, it said "Recent price developments indicate that the deflation is ending."

For All the Saints? Remembering the Christian Departed
Other Formats
Product Description
With these robust words popular author N. T. Wright challenges current liturgy and practice surrounding All Saints' and All Souls' Days, and sets out to clarify our thinking about what Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory are, what it means to pray for the dead, and what (and who) the saints are. He suggests biblical ways to celebrate the lives of those who have gone before us.
"In challenging the existence of an eternal soul and questioning the traditional view of heaven, Wright is taking a more biblical approach than most of his more liberal contemporaries,"---The Times (U.K.).

Publisher's Description
"We have been drifting into a muddle and a mess, putting together bits and pieces of traditions, ideas and practices in the hope that they will make sense. They don't. There may be times when a typical Anglican fudge is a pleasant, chewy sort of thing, but this isn't one of them. It's time to think and speak clearly and act decisively."
With these robust words Tom Wright, Bishop of Durham, throws down a challenge to current liturgy and practice surrounding All Saints' and All Souls' Days, and sets out to clarify our thinking about what happens to people after they die. Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory, what it means to pray for the dead, what (and who) are the saints, are all addressed in this invigorating and rigorously argued book.

The Lightning Thief
Analysis: Tough-o-Meter
(2) Sea Level
Easy breezy and about as delicious as ambrosia. Our narrator, Percy, makes this a really fun ride. He's a twelve year-old armed with a great sense of humor, and he notices everything. Everything. The only tricky part about reading The Lightning Thief is that it is filled with references to Ancient Greek culture and Greek mythology. But if you aren't familiar with this stuff, never fear. Percy and his friends will help you learn all about it, leaving you with a great foundation in Greek studies (which will pop up in lots of books later on). If you'd like to find out more about the Greek gods, creatures, and stories, check out our "Best of the Web" section for tons of juicy resources.

Poll: Most Google, Facebook users fret over privacy
Published: Wednesday, February 9, 2011 at 10:02 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 9, 2011 at 10:02 a.m.
Most Americans are worried about privacy and viruses when using Facebook or Google, according to results of a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll released Tuesday.
Nearly seven out of 10 Facebook members surveyed - and 52 percent of Google users - say they are either "somewhat" or "very concerned" about their privacy while using the world's most popular social network and dominant search engine.
Even so, technologists and privacy experts say most people lack a clear grasp of the complex risks they accept whenever they're on the Internet. "Consumers generally do not understand who's getting access to their data and for what purpose," says Ryan Calo, director of the Consumer Privacy Project at the Stanford University Center for Internet and Society.
Many of us "have a general sense of unease" when we're online, Calo says.
The poll found that a similar percentage of Facebook and Google users - 65 percent and 54 percent, respectively - say they are worried about Internet viruses.
"In my mind, that shows a lower level of concern (about viruses) than folks really ought to have," says Lisa Sotto, head of privacy and information management at law firm Hunton & Williams. "There is probably a lack of understanding about how very dangerous viruses can be."
The erosion of security and privacy often go hand in hand. Social networks, banks, tech companies and retailers continue to make it easier than ever to create accounts, share personal details and do most activities on the Web.
This is being driven largely by advertisers' desire to make online pitches to the person most likely to buy. "The only way that happens is through the collection of huge amounts of data about each of us, followed by the sale of the data," says Michael Fertik, CEO of identity management firm Reputation.com.
Data flowing through the Web have translated into a candy store for criminals. It's easier than ever for even low-skilled hackers to spread infections via e-mail, Facebook and Twitter postings and corrupted Google search results. Risks are rising with the use of smartphones, tablet PCs and e-readers to access the Web.
Some companies are doing what they can. "I'm heartened by the attention to mobile privacy issues," says privacy attorney Chris Wolf of Hogan Lovells. New services revolve around "ways to empower people to protect their information."

John Everson
John Everson (born March 14, 1966) is an American author of contemporary horror, dark fantasy, science fiction and fantasy fiction. He is the author of eight novels and six short fiction collections, all focusing on horror and the supernatural. His novel Covenant, was originally released by Delirium Books in 2004 and won the Bram Stoker Award for a First Novel the following year.[1]
Everson was born in 1966 and spent most of his childhood in Tinley Park, IL. He graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a degree in journalism in 1988 and worked for two years at The Star Newspapers in Chicago Heights, IL, where he began the weekly music review column "Pop Stops."[2] He wrote this column for the newspaper for nearly 20 years, even after leaving The Star as a full-time reporter to serve as an editor for the Illinois Entertainer magazine for four years. It was during his tenure at the Illinois Entertainer that he began actively writing and submitting short fiction in the horror and fantasy genres. His first two novels feature a reporter, Joe Kieran, as the lead character, drawing on his experience in journalism.
In 2000, his first collection of short fiction appeared from Delirium Books,[3] a small press publisher of horror fiction which has since released several collectible hardcover editions of Everson books, including his first novel, Covenant, in 2004.
Covenant was reissued mass market paperback publisher Leisure Books in 2008, which also reissued the sequel Sacrifice in 2009 as well as his next two novels, The 13th and Siren. His fifth novel, The Pumpkin Man was released by Leisure's parent company, Dorchester Publishing and has been optioned for production by Shadowcast Pictures. His sixth novel, NightWhere, will be issued by Samhain Publishing in 2012.
Both Covenant and Sacrifice have been translated into Polish and released by Red Horse and Replika Books. Covenant has also been translated into Turkish, and is in the process of being translated into French.
Everson's work has been featured in numerous anthologies including, V-Wars, Qualia Nous, Equilibrium Overturned, All American Horror of the 21st Century, Necro Files: Two Decades of Extreme Horror, The Green Hornet Casefiles, Best New Werewolf Tales (Vol. 1), Best New Vampire Tales (Vol. 1), Best New Zombie Tales (Vol. 2) and Kolchak: The Night Stalker Casebook.
In addition to writing, Everson is also the publisher of Dark Arts Books. Since 2006, this press has released an average of one four-author anthology per year consisting of multiple stories from each author.
Everson lives with his wife Geri and son Shaun in Naperville, Illinois.[4]

Don't think they are the cheapest, but Morebeer.com has daily specials, which can sometimes be pretty significant. Today I checked and bought a AHA membership for like 25% off. Not bad considering I have been wanting to do this for a while.
You must be making very big beers to spend that much on one batch. There's a linear relationship between ABV and cost.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!" "I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
Just wanted to let everyone know about this website I found called "theamericanbrewer" dot com. My buddy turned me on to it and they got some of the best prices on kits I've ever seen. They don't show up in google searches (wonder why?) but they got a brew kit/ingredient kit combo for like 79 bucks. My friend bought one in February and he said he's super happy with it. he told me he got lot's of extra stuff and they even threw in a huge glass beer stein. Anyway, don't want to give them to much kudos until I get mine. I ordered it yesterday nd I guess it'll be here in like a week or so. They got like 15 or 20 different ingredient kits to so I got their O'reily's Irish Stout kit. I guess I'll let everyone know what happens when I get my stuff. I think all us brewer's should let each other know about any deals we find since brewing is getting a little expensive, at least for me. Thanks, later.
Mudog, it's the same way at my LHBS and the kits use canned extract. They're $25 online and 50+ in store. Immediately explored AHS, Midwest, and morebeer instead. I like all 3.
Midwest Supplies or Northern Brewer, just ship them out to ya. I will say extract costs have gone up a few bucks over the last 2-3 years. But you'd have to go to extreme kits to spend $50 (huge gravity or insane hopping rates) at those places. Both turn over huge volumes of liquid extract too, so it should be fresh. AHS the same I expect. For kits I feel Northern Brewer really puts together some good ones. The majority are between $25 and 40. I usually shop at Midwest now as its closer, a tidge cheaper, and I buy stuff separate with my all grain recipes.
Beer kits often include a convenience price. Take the True Brew hefe kit: it costs $36 at my LHBS Materials, if bought individually, are $26 for the extract, $1 for the dry yeast, $1.50 for the hops, $1 for the priming sugar, and $1.50 for the caps, for a total of about $31.

David Ford
World Cafe LiveMarch 05, 2015 8:00 PM3025 Walnut Street
Philadelphia, PA 19104
British solo artist David Ford does more than sing. This singer/songwriter who was previously a member of the indie rock group, Easyworld, would be better classified as a storyteller-performer. Ford is known for using a "looping pedal" during his performances to layer the vocals, percussion, keyboard, and guitar--it makes for an extremely climactic flow of a show. His music is soft/indie rock and uses a lot of acoustic guitar and violins, giving its music a cinematic feel to it.

Self Defense Family

Philadelphia, PA 19112
Self Defense Family is a post hardcore outfit that initially emerged out of Cohoes, New York in 2003 under the name End of a Year. After capturing its post punk-infused brand of emo on three records, beginning with 2004's Disappear Here, the group changed its name to Self Defense Family, marking the reformatting of the band to include all touring and session musicians who had contributed so far. With its new arrangement, Self Defense Family released its fourth studio album Try Me, in 2014 with Deathwish, Inc.

Field Hockey Hot
Adrienne TheaterMarch 05, 2015 7:00 PM2030 Sansom Street
Philadelphia, PA 19103
The highly competitive world of high-school athletics is always ripe for comedy or drama or any combination thereof, and this world-premiere satire takes full advantage of the possibilities when the coach of a girls' field hockey team sets out to secure a championship at any cost. Local award-winning composer-lyricist-playwright Michael Ogborn is the man behind "Field Hockey Hot", an all-new musical comedy infused with an '80s pop sound, which finds Applebee Academy's star goalie injured just two weeks before the big match, forcing the team's fearless leader to risk everything to win. 11th Hour Theatre Company stages this exciting new show at Philadelphia's Adrienne Theatre.

Mothers and Sons
Suzanne Roberts TheaterMarch 05, 2015 8:00 PM480 South Broad Street
Philadelphia, PA 19146
Four-time Tony Award winner Terrence McNally has a history of writing powerful and entertaining dramas that capture the essence of the time in which they're set. His latest, "Mothers and Sons", is a provocative exploration of the changing definition of family. A grieving mother pays a surprise visit to her late son's partner, now married to another man and raising a young son. This family both challenges and broadens her worldview, and just may offer the opportunity to be part of a future she never imagined. Philadelphia Theater Company's production of "Mothers and Sons" at Suzanne Roberts Theatre features Emmy Award-winning actress Michael Learned, who played the mother on the hit TV series "The Waltons".

Apparently I am very lucky to live in Dresden. Our major electronic stores and even Toys'r'Us do seem to have enough of the toys.
At least Lucario and Rosalina were in stock, though I did not see Metaknight.
For getting Pikachu, Samus and Toon-Link I just had to go to the store anyways and I do not expect having to preorder figures of the waves to come.

I would love to have an EU-code.
Somehow I never get an e-mail from Nintendo for those distributions.
Thank you really much if you have a spare one for me.
I got Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on my 3DS, but was allways annoyed by the not-functioning onlinemode. At the moment I live in a flat, where it is really not quite possible to connect via lan cable.
When Monster Hunter 4 was announced I was hoping it would come to Wii U and that I could buy the new version instead.
Now this really is a difficult decision. The offer is tempting, the price is nice, my backlog enormous...so many other things to do and play.....aaaargh!
Loved Attack of the Friday Monsters for its original and innocent appeal! Though the end did not really satisfy me. Same thing with Weapon Shop de Omasse. You might need new Screen Protectors afterwards, by the way. ;–] Did not really play Starship Damrey so far but it seems quite great. Got surprisingly addicted to Inazuma Eleven, since I like the idea of non-fantasy-rpgs. Though I am not really into football. Only Level 5 game I did not really enjoy was Crimson Shroud, since it felt quite dry with it´s boardgame-appeal.
I don't have much of a clue of the Mario games in general, so I hope I won't get flamed for asking this, but can someone around here tell me if (i would expect so) there is a conceptual difference to distinguish Mario Land from Mario World from Marion Bros. titles? What is it?
Am I the only one who hates Toadette?
Of all the Mario Kart Characters she annoys me the most.
I mean come on: Her plaits are rows of mushrooms. ^^
@ Gustoff rjejr ist probably more right than I am about the amount of blocks. I jut remembered something about 1000 and something containing a 4. ;-]
I really miss the kickstarter updates. =/ Why haven't there been any recently? I know some people were complaining that posting them every week was too often, but I was always looking forward to them. Maybe every two weeks? Or did they just stop because there are not many interesting titles around at the moment? I'd be so glad to have them back. =]
Thank you really much Hardline, but unfortunately someone stole the code from me and the other one was used aswell. Thank you very much for trying anyways!
Could it even matter what part of Europe a code is from? Also regarding the language the Miis speak?
@Bisylizzie Read some minutes ago Australia is indeed part of the EU region.
Nice idea making an own topic for this purpose.
I'm already waiting hopefully and nervously for an EU code to appear. ;-]
I would be in for unneeded demo-codes aswell. If anyone won't mind it? Not quite sure if I'm gonna love it right now. Wasn't too interested in Animal Crossing, but did like Sims some time ago and love everything strange.
By the way: Does it matter which country the code comes from? [I'm from Germany.]

Comment posted Research reveals shock insights into reality of Dunoon ferry service provision by Peter Wade.
Ferryman all newsroom has done is simple maths and made some conclusions. No need to make this personal just because you don't agree.
Taking your figures you need to divide this by 2 as its a fair assumption that half go to gourock.
I wonder how many foot passengers western takes.
Peter Wade also commented
- Funnily enough, when Cowal ferries were providing a vehicle service, they were more expensive than Western
- That's the best bit of news I have heard in years. Thanks Dave, you will not be missed.
- They have been searching for years. More hype and no substance.
Even if they find a boat they still have to sort out the legals and the money.
- That would seem fair on the basis that most people in Dunoon have been ignoring your misinformation for years.
- Ferry man on average I would say that your posts are empty.
Recent comments by Peter Wade
- One in the eye of the storm for the Dunoon Gourock Ferry Action Group
I can understand why everyone gets so frustrated with the action group in dunoon. They moan when the service goes off and low and behold, they moan when the service is on.The Flyer was probably the only one or one of the few still operating on Wednesday. Rather you should appreciate that fact.
- CKD Galbraith say new tax and support proposals create minefield for sporting businesses
That's what we have come to expect, an intelligent response. - Will the Dunoon Ferry Action Group now think really BIG?
The new tender will require new vessels as there is no way the Government will approve the future use of the Ali Cat or the flyer. In fact the reason for the 2015 start is to give time for the tender followed by the construction so the winner is ready for the 2017 start of service.
The action group met with Nicola sturgeon the other week but no details have emerged, therefore it can only mean that they did not hear what they wanted, otherwise they would have been crowing about it.
So a new passenger vessel from Fergusons must be where the smart money must is. Perhaps the first announcement from the new transport minister? - Transport contracts – are Scottish Government's hands tied or not?
The option was with Fergusons, not sure how this is legally transferred to the new company. - Scottish Government invests in future of Ferguson's shiyard
I wonder how this contract was placed without going through the procurement process.Hopefully now that the SNP has found away around these all future Cmal vessels can be built in Scotland.

Swansea City midfielder Lee Lucas would welcome a fresh loan chance.
Lucas spent part of last season on-loan at Burton Albion.
He told the club's website: "Even though I only played one game for Burton, it was just great to start a league game and experience the pressure of fighting for points. It helped me mature as a player and I hope to progress from that experience.
"I had an injection in my back a fortnight ago and now I've just got to rest before pre-season starts. I'm aiming to have a good pre-season and hopefully push myself in and around the first-team squad.''

Tecumseh Engines Carburetor
My lawn mower won't start and sprays gas out of the muffler when I pull the starting cord.?
Is it the float in my carburetor? It is an old Murray with a 3.5 HP Tecumseh engine. What should I do? It isn't worth much, I'm sure. Thanks.
Those old Tecumseh's are like bullet-proof! Full choke that sucker and rapid pull many times, swiftly….It should pop off and burn off the excess. Make sure it's fresh fuel if it hasn't been run for awhile. It'll run.
Carburetor Cleaning & TUNE-UP of Toro 6.5HP Lawnmower with Tecumseh Engine
Have a 6.5hp Tecumseh in a riding mower. Need specific instructions on how to take the carburetor off. Not the normal carb like on a 3.5hp. Thanks. Any help will be appreciated.
Troubleshooting is a symptom based sreeis of tests in a logical order to determine which part of a system is at fault. My problem engine (B&S 120212/117E1) fires two or three times but will not run. It has great spark and excellent compression. Valves are correctly gapped. Good new fuel is getting into the combustion chamber (wet plug), still only fires twice or thrice.Crank/cam timing marks are spot on. New key for the flywheel. These things triple-checked.
the gasket on the carb bowl is shot on my Toro 6.5. I have attempted to seal it several different ways and it will run for a while till air starts to get in. Where can i get a new carb bowl seal???
JohnnyYes stabilizer sholud go into both tanks. look on label to see the correct amount of stabilizer per gallon of gas. You also may want adjust the gap on the valves. Some small engines they will get out of adjustment after not to many hours.

I guess the purpose of this thread is gain some followers with Touituer. I would like to to gain more followers using this post so that i can try and use all the functions with Touituer and utilize it with everyone on mulitple accounts. So if your on Twitter and your are using the best twitter app out there. Hit me up. twitter.com/chinoali Hit me up, peoples. :icon_ banana:
Its not a feature yet, but ask you and shall receive!:icon_ banana: IMO Touiteur has the best UI of all the twitter apps, it's was just released yesterday the Dev was coding to make sure for a stable first release. Not to mention he updated it today to make refreshing more faster and included some UI enhancements. I've already seen him talk about implementing a lot of my requested features for future updates! As it stands now Touiteur is a very stable and beautiful "base". So feature-wise it's not the "best" twitter client but it definitely has the potential to become the top!! Especially since we have direct contact with the dev (he visits the forums from time to time and is always replying to as many twitter questions he gets as he can). Very great dev! If you have any suggestion head over to the Touiteur app thread and voice your opinions! Tama (the dev) is always listening!!:icon_ banana: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/ap...ors-beautiful-widgets.html?highlight=touiteur
I agree with you Sami but overall its still has the best UI. And the additional features you cant get with the other Twitter Apps. The hashtags and music tags is what i am looking at. Def will post it on the other thread.

A+ score on a big$ item. Can't tell if you got a gas bottle or not. If not, I'd recommend getting a gas bottle and solid core wire and you're ready for some quality, clean welding. BTW, I just use my CO2 from my kegging system and it works just fine on mild steel. I believe stainless welding needs tri-mix to work well.
That's great! I didn't even think to use my co2 tank.... I have been looking around and the local welding shops (we have a lot in Tulsa) will rent the co2 argon out for a 50$ deposit. I also found some full welding arms for 20 bucks ? Not sure if that's a good deal or not?
holy hell am I jealous!
Nice Thunder tickets too!
You mean Sonics tickets? yeah, we're still sad up here.

i got the same welder for a crap ton more than that. lol it is one awesome machine for a DIY welder. i weld sheet metal to 1/4 inch no problems sheet metal is alittle hard to get use to but easy once you get it down. congrats again great find and 5gal of home brew for steel cant complain there
We drafted Westbrook too, just sayin. Yep, we are very excited about the new arena deal here in town, looks like NBA and NHL are both in our future. Anyway.. Enjoy your awesome welder and steel hookup, you'll have a badass stand before you know it!

Adams Family Code Names
Diary of Charles Francis Adams, Volume 1
This note contained in document
. From the context and from frequent similar references to "the Athenaeum" in the following months, this appears to have been a news shop and periodical reading room in the area of what is now Harvard Square. Since CFA often visited it between morning classes and between afternoon classes and prayers (and could hear the Harvard chapel bell as he read), it could not have been the famous Boston Athenaeum, incorporated in 1807 and located at this time in the James Perkins house, 13 Pearl Street, Boston. CFA was later to frequent that institution, both before and after it moved, in 1849, to its present building at 10 1/2 Beacon Street; see
Boston: A Topographical History
, p. 117–118. Nor could it have been the Cambridge Athenaeum, which was not founded until 1849 and was eventually absorbed by the Cambridge Public Library; see Arthur Gilman, ed.,
The Cambridge of Eighteen Hundred and Ninety-Six,
Cambridge, 1896, p. 228. CFA's "Athenaeum" is probably the same as "the reading room" he so often mentions passing a little time in to see the latest news and magazines. It was clearly not the same as "the Bookstore," evidently William Hilliard's (see entry for
14 Sept.
, and
, below), also in Cambridge but at a little distance from the Yard and the Athenaeum.

Now with movies and pictures! …And also on YouTube
If you're looking to get more fun out of campaign mode for the original Halo, and also Halo 3, ODST and Reach, you're in the right place because there are over 900,000 words of cyborg-happy yammering here, largely devoted to that goal. For the original there's a massive section of fun including detailed accounts of the five megabattles, and there's also a large section of combat tips to help you in the field. You'll find plenty more besides, including some biting frontline insights from ace reporter Suzie. I'm also busy making movies and adding pictures to my written material (click thumbnails to enlarge), to enhance the Bad Cyborg experience. So come on in and get a bit of red mist worked up under your visor!

Following up on my last movie (just before I move on to other topics), BCM128 showcases the turret's impressive and amusing bumping ability, which I saw a lot of during the making of BCM127. - February 15th: Banshee with turret!
Yep, that's right, I've got a Banshee with a turret. Freaky new discovery. See how it's done in BCM127! I've also written about this in my turret article. - February 8th: Turret ramming better and higher!
In BCM126 I take the noble sport of turret ramming a step further, with an ambitious goal in mind. It's a bit of an epic. Don't miss it! - January 31st: Dustbowl megabattle, cliff path defence
BCM125 shows some dustbowl megabattling in which I initially draw the covies to the far end of the cliff path so they'll mostly attack from that end. Grenades required! - January 20th: Mid-air turret ramming
BCM124 is about ramming a detached dropship turret in mid-air, and I've also added to my article in connection with this new activity. - January 8th: Elite fireworks - death by a thousand needles
99 movies later, I've finally got back to the topic of Elite fireworks. BCM123 involves a thousand needles. And if that doesn't make you want to watch, you're at the wrong website! In connection with this fun I've also expanded my Elite fireworks article a bit, with a Floor show section. - January 5th: Freakiness and fun #8
Yep, it's time for another compilation of freakiness and fun; check out BCM122. - December 28th: Flood onslaught challenge
BCM120 demonstrates setting up the Flood onslaught challenge on Heroic, and BCM121 is a triple play of the resulting save, using three combos. I've also revised my page for the Flood onslaught challenge, and especially the set-up routine. - October 29th: Rockslide megabattle, inner rise defence
BCM119 is a triple play of the rockslide megabattle, using the inner rise defence with lots of needling. Stacker and Johnson join in with the fun. I've also revised my page for that battle plan, which now has pictures. - October 22nd: Keyes hangar battle bonanza
At last I'm covering the Keyes hangar battle in my movie series - with three movies in fact! BCM116 shows the door ambush, BCM117 deals with platform survival, and BCM118 is a set-up tutorial. I've also revised my battle article, which now has pictures.
