Stevie Nicks Dominates Fleetwood Mac Song Poll
Wednesday, April 3, 2013
Stevie Nicks compositions dominated Rolling Stone's new Reader's Poll for "The 10 Best Fleetwood Mac Songs." Only three of the 10 songs weren't written by Nicks -- although the Number One spot was given to "The Chain," which is officially a full band co-write, but based on a Nicks melody. The Number Two spot went to Lindsey Buckingham's Rumours classic, "Go Your Own Way," with the Top Three rounded out by Nicks' 1975 acoustic favorite "Landslide."
Although none of the Top 10 picks included any of Christine McVie's hits for the band ("Don't Stop," "You Make Loving Fun," "Say You Love Me," "Hold Me"), co-founding guitarist Peter Green's 1969 signature tune for the band, "Oh Well," took the Number Seven spot on the list.
When we last caught up with Stevie Nicks, we asked her to describe the journey from songwriter into being a "recording artist": "The words are the hardest part to write. If you've got a bunch of great words, going and setting yourself up in a studio with some candles and some incense and a couple of your great friends who are musicians -- now that's a pleasure. Actually writing the words and getting your poems right -- that's long hard work by yourself. That work is all done. If somebody says, 'We're doing an album' -- then I go into, y'know, six weeks of solid songwriting. Then I've got 10 songs."
Fleetwood Mac -- featuring Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, and John McVie -- kicks off its 2013 dates on April 4th in Columbus, Ohio at Nationwide Arena.
"The 10 Best Fleetwood Mac Songs" according to Rolling Stone readers:
1. "The Chain" (Rumours, 1977)
2. "Go Your Own Way" (Rumours, 1977)
3. "Landslide" (Fleetwood Mac, 1975)
4. "Rhiannon" (Fleetwood Mac, 1975)
5. "Dreams" (Rumours, 1977)
6. "Silver Springs" ("Go Your Own Way" B-Side, 1976)
7. "Oh Well" (Single, 1969)
8. "Gold Dust Woman" (Rumours, 1977)
9. "Sara" (Tusk, 1979)
10. "Gypsy" (Mirage, 1982)

Durham council approves amended inspection process for rental units
Wednesday, January 9, 2013
DURHAM — Town Council members voted 6-1 to approve as amended an ordinance establishing an inspection process for health and safety standards of residential rental properties, though the proposal had residents sounding off during Monday night's public hearing over the need for more clarity of the ordinance.
These were situations, Selig said, that the Fire Department reported "had someone been home there would have likely been a fatality."
"We are intent on creating a safe environment," Councilor William Cote said.
Smith noted that work done to execute inspections is "what we're paying the Fire Department for."
Selig reminded residents that there will be a review process of the program conducted regularly and that there is also an appeal process in place for owners who disagree with violations found by the Fire Department.

Weapons and Armor in Rust
With Rust, since the game is still in development, there aren't any video game reviews to tell you how to do certain things in the game. Efforts have been made to make things fairly easy, but much like Minecraft or similar games, you have to rely in wikis for some of the most important information.
Probably the most important of all is how you should use and make weapons and armor. These items are absolutely essential for your survival in Rust, especially since everyone else is doing the same as you; trying to survive at any cost.
Good Weapons
In current versions of the game, there are quite a few different weapons you can find, use, and/or craft in order to get an advantage over other people or wildlife in the game. Some of these weapons include things like a hatchet, pick axe, rock, stone hatchet, hand cannon, pipe shotgun, revolver, 9mm pistol, P250, hunting bow, rifles, and even explosives.
Each of these types of weapons have their own crafting recipe, and require different kinds of materials in order to craft successfully. Among the common materials for weapons are stones, wood, metal fragments, cloth, low quality metal, leather, and so on. These are all combined in different ways and different amounts to form some of the best weaponry in the game. Though using rust hacks makes your life in the game a whole lot easier with features like speedhack that help you gather materials much faster.
Making Armor
Of course, having powerful weapons mean nothing if a single shot from a bullet ends up killing you since you lack any kind of body protection. This is where armor can become extremely handy to create. There are a few different types of armor that you can find or craft, including cloth, Kevlar, leather, and radiation suits.
Each kind of armor boosts different portions of your stats at various amounts. Different dimensions of protection include bullets, melee, cold, explosions, and radiation.
Best Combinations
The overall best combo of weapon and armor heavily depends on the kind of environments that you plan to visit. For example, if you plan on staying around highly radioactive areas, it can be to your advantage to craft plenty of radioactive suits along with any kind of gun.
In other cases, you might want Kevlar for maximum protection along with things like rifles so that you can take out your opponents with greater ease, and still get back to your base in one piece.
The best combo is the one that works best for you. This can only be found out by actually playing the game and gaining actual experience.

Missouri Volunteers Win Top Awards at NWTF Convention
Photo available upon request.
Official Sponsor
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Missouri State Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation received an L.A. Dixon Memorial Chapter Award during the 35th annual National Convention and Sport Show in Nashville, Tenn.
MidwayUSA was the official convention sponsor.
The NWTF recognized the Missouri State Chapter for earning second place in the membership achievement category for state chapters with 10,000 to 19,999 members, and third place in the Highest Total Net/Net Dollars Raised category. The chapter has been a leader in the NWTF's chapter system.
"We are proud to recognize this outstanding chapter with the L.A. Dixon Award," said George Thornton, NWTF CEO. "The NWTF's volunteers and chapters are incredibly devoted to our mission of conservation and the preservation of our hunting heritage. This outstanding chapter is one shining example of how our great volunteers lead the way in communities across North America."
The L.A. Dixon Memorial awards are bestowed in honor of a man who gave unselfishly during the NWTF's early years. Dixon founded the North Carolina State NWTF chapter, served at the national, state and local levels and traveled thousands of miles at his own expense carrying the NWTF's message to all who would listen. The NWTF honors Dixon's achievements through the L.A. Dixon Memorial Chapter Awards.
Last year, NWTF chapters hosted more than 2,000 Hunting Heritage Super Fund banquets to raise funds for the NWTF's conservation and outreach initiatives. Dollars raised at these events help fund conservation and outreach projects nationwide through the NWTF Hunting Heritage Super Fund.
Through dynamic partnerships with state, federal and provincial wildlife agencies, the NWTF and its members have helped restore wild turkey populations across the country, spending more than $331 million to conserve 15.9 million acres of habitat that helps wild turkeys and hundreds of upland wildlife species including deer, quail, grouse and pheasants.

Much more rain than snow in many places
Thursday, February 28, 2013
DOVER — Though many parts of Strafford and Rockingham counties braced for what was expected to be another winter storm on the heels of this past weekend's storm, this system had weather officials scratching their heads right up until the storm was expected to begin winding down Wednesday night.
Serving as what seemed like a mid-point between rain and snow, Dover experienced mostly a wintry mix of precipitating slush over the course of Wednesday.
He said although he has the ability to make these adjustments on his own, he will go the council to let them know if he plans to make any adjustments.

Youtube and Vimeo supporting HTML 5, the iPhone (*spit*) not supporting Flash ... Flash is just so going to die and it will be a better web without it.
I start to think that Steve Jobs was right in the end: Adobe guys are just lazy!
HTML5 needs to happen sooner rather than later, and on a large scale.
I also don't see why we don't just go with Dirac. The technical downsides versus H.264 range from negligible to none depending upon who you ask. The fact that it's royalty free makes it more than worth it considering the fact that the entire point in the HTML5 video tag is to provide a universal open standard.
In a short test it does not crash that often like the betas before. Have to test it a bit longer - but i see basically no diff to 10.0.
i doubt that adobe will make 64-bit flash mainstream until mozilla makes a 64-bit browser.
has adobe only made a 64 bit beta for linux?
Basically there are 2 - just a bit hidden. Those are only dev versions. For the latest stable there is no official 64 bit binary.
I usually prefer:
But there is also a 3.7 branch:
Everything else is compiled directly by the distributions.

The Rolling Stones Remaster Entire Catalogue For iTunes
Sunday, June 23, 2013
The Rolling Stones have remastered their catalogue for iTunes, according to Billboard. The new remasters include the band's entire output, from classic albums such as Beggars Banquet, Sticky Fingers, Exile On Main Street, Some Girls, and Tattoo You, to their earlier Decca Records era -- including both the U.S. and British versions of such albums as Out Of Our Heads, Aftermath, and Between The Buttons, among others. Also available for download are such Stones films as Ladies And Gentlemen: The Rolling Stones, Rock And Roll Circus, Charlie Is My Darling -- Ireland 1965, and the career-spanning Crossfire Hurricane, as well as the new Rolling Stones 50 eBook.
50 years into the band's career, Mick Jagger recalled how shocked the entertainment world was in the early-'60s as the Stones redefined the rules of the game: "The way that show-business was in those days was very narrow, and you were supposed to behave in a certain way, pretty much goody-two-shoes. So, if you didn't behave like that completely, you were, y'know, on the edge of it. So, it was another time. Y'know, the early, early days."
Ron Wood, who first recorded with the Stones in 1974 and toured with the band the following year, still remembers what it was like to be one of the Stones' original legion of early British fans: "Yeah, well, I still look at it from a far, y'know? It's a bit like. . . it's very surreal to be in this unit where you used to run home from school to watch on the telly, going (claps hands): 'I'm gonna be in that band!' -- Y'know to actually be in that band."
The Rolling Stones tour dates (subject to change):
June 21 - Philadelphia, PA - Wells Fargo Center
June 24 - Washington, D.C. - Verizon Center
June 29 - Pilton, England - Glastonbury Festival at Worthy Farm
July 6, 13 - London, England - Hyde Park

MALIBU COUNTRY - "Oh Brother" - Reba's wayward brother, Blake (Country music star Blake Shelton), pays a surprise visit and comes up with a hasty plan to turn Lillie Mae's BBQ sauce into a profitable business.

Dysarthria is a condition in which you have difficulty controlling or coordinating the muscles you use when you speak, or weakness of those muscles. Dysarthria often is characterized by slurred or slow speech that can be difficult to understand.
Common causes of dysarthria include nervous system (neurological) disorders such as stroke, brain injury, brain tumors, and conditions that cause facial paralysis or tongue or throat muscle weakness. Dysarthria may also be caused by certain medications.
Dysarthria treatment is directed at treating the underlying cause of your condition when possible, which may improve your speech. You may have speech therapy, which often helps people with dysarthria improve their speech. If dysarthria is caused by prescription medications, changing or discontinuing your medications may help.
Signs and symptoms of dysarthria vary, depending on the underlying cause, and may include:
Dysarthria can be sign of a serious underlying condition. See your doctor if you experience sudden or unexplained changes in your ability to speak clearly.
In dysarthria, you may experience difficulties moving the muscles in your mouth, face or upper respiratory system that control speech. Many conditions may result in dysarthria, including:
Some medications, such as narcotics or sedatives, also may cause dysarthria.
Dysarthria can lead to a number of complications, including:
Dysarthria requires prompt medical attention. See a doctor right away if you experience sudden or unexplained changes in your ability to speak clearly. You're likely to start by seeing your family doctor or a general practitioner who will ask about your symptoms, do an initial physical examination and review the medications you're taking. If your doctor suspects that an underlying medical condition is causing your symptoms, he or she will likely refer you to a nervous system specialist (neurologist) for further evaluation.
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot of ground to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared for your appointment. Here's what you can do to get ready for your appointment, as well as what to expect from your doctor.
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For dysarthria, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment anytime you don't understand something.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may allow more time to cover other points you want to address. Your doctor may ask:
Your speaking difficulty may be evaluated by a speech-language pathologist to diagnose the type of dysarthria you may have. This can be helpful to the neurologist who will be responsible for finding the underlying cause.
To diagnose your condition, your doctor may review your medical history and conduct a thorough physical exam. Your doctor may also order several tests to investigate possible underlying causes, including:
Your treatment will depend on the cause and severity of your symptoms, and the type of dysarthria you have.
Your doctor will treat the underlying cause of your dysarthria when possible, which may improve your speech. If your dysarthria is caused by prescription medications, talk to your doctor about the possibility of changing or discontinuing such medications.
You may have speech and language therapy to help you regain normal speech and improve your communication. A speech-language pathologist can determine the severity of your speech difficulties, develop a treatment plan to improve your speech and work with you to put that plan into action. Your speech therapy goals may include adjusting your speech rate, strengthening your muscles, increasing your breath support, increasing your speech articulation and helping your family members understand how to effectively communicate with you.
Your speech-language pathologist may recommend other communication methods (augmentative and alternative communication systems) to help you communicate, if speech and language therapy isn't effective. These communication methods could include visual cues, gestures, an alphabet board or computer-based technology.
If you have significant dysarthria that makes your speech difficult to understand, these suggestions may help you communicate more effectively with others:
If you have a family member or friend with dysarthria, the following suggestions may help you better communicate with that person:

No Tresspassing Signs
Cyberspace is not private proterty the same as land, the house built upon it, or the cars that drive over it. Even if it was, historically, property interests invite governmental intrusion. As examples: zoning ordinances, health codes, building permits, vehicle inspections, and on and on. Public policy trumps private property interests everytime. Again, nobody forced you to buy that house, and by paying the mortgage you aren't absolved of the other responsibilities that come with ownership.

OK... but you try coming into the house that I don't own, and sit in my dining room (that I don't own) and start ranting on about what I do and don't own... you'll get a dose of reality, and feel the door hitting you on the backside as it slams shut... and you won't get an invite back.

I restricted myself to the discussion on this thread and your comments in this thread, Robert, which make perfectly clear your views. I don't really particularly care what you think about the Internet.
I said nothing about your writing, and how it should conform to some pop standard. In fact, regulars in this forum could easily tell you that I consider the very idea absurd. I didn't mention "art" at all. What I said was, if you're asking people to buy your book, attacking them seems a dubious publicity strategy to me. But you've now made it clear that you aren't interested in publicity or writing or sff or anything else but trolling, so I won't talk about the subject further.
These forums are for discussion, not advertising. Members agree to abide by the rules of the discussion -- to respect the rights of other members. I'm sorry that you don't see the value in that. I'm afraid I don't see the value at all in your philosophy.

Sorry if I was off-topic
Maybe I lost touch with what we were talking about -- it's not uncommon for me. I got into ranting about how cyberspace is public property and that associated private property had diminished worth. J -- I don't understand why you are so angry.

roberteggleton, apart from starting threads in messageboards and making statements that annoy people (especially about POV and wishing I had cancer???) do you have any other self-marketing strategies? Or don't you really care because you don't want to make money, be known, respected, etc, etc. Is promoting your novel really your agenda here?
It almost seems that you came to an internet forum to complain about internet forums. Whatever you set out to do... you're doing it really badly.
August 19th, 2006, 11:40 PM #53
I'm reminded of a sign I once saw in front of a post office. It said, "Public Property: Keep off the grass."
As for the discussion here. I could disagree more, but I don't think we're done yet.
I don't think cyberspace is public property. I don't think my house is public property either. I suspect public property is a myth.
I don't think roberteggleton ever said he didn't understand the concept of point of view, he just didn't understand "POV".
I have difficulty reffering to God as "she". But if that's what does it for you, by all means.
I don't think you can separate the art from the artist, or the writer from the story. When I read something I usually get a really good idea of the personality of the person who wrote it.
I don't think Juzzza is angry, he does, however, disagree.
Yep, he did say he wanted you to have cancer. But he doesn't know you like we do.
I don't buy cars from salespeople who insult my intelligence, or take for granted that I must buy from him/her. I don't go to movies because someone who was involved in making it said it was the greatest film ever produced, even if they show up at this site and keep posting news about pre-views and openings while pretending to be just another fan .
Self-promotion is hard work, and evidently not for the faint of heart.

I will try and put another way what I think Juzzza was saying.
You, roberteggleton, when you joined this forum clicked "I agree" to the rules and conditions laid down by the "owner" of this site. (Yes, owner, money changed hands to provide this site. This is a privately owned website. All websites are owned by someone. All servers are owned. You, yourself, pay to access the net in some form or other. So to say it is free is a misnomer. There is an old saying "nothing is free", and the more you think on the matter the more it is true, everthing has a price of some sort. It might not be coin of the realm, but there is payment. To deny life has such is self-delusional )
Yet you say that you can do what you like on this site regardless of giving your word to obey the rules set down as guidelines to conduct here. The basis of such rules is to create the sort of atmosphere the owner wishes to. Like all societies this one needs rules and guidelines to function and protect its members, so the society can grow and florish. If you believe you can act as you like, disregarding the stated laws, then you are not only going to injure/harm the other members of that society, you are placing yourself outside the protection of that society.
Man is by evolution, and the necessity to insure the survival of his kind, a social animal. By setting yourself up against the group in such a manner you are not going to be accepted.
Now I am not, by what I am stating, saying we all should conform, be the same. The rules allow us to be different, to express our opinion, BUT they draw the line at certain behaviour that threatens the community, which is logical and for the most part acceptable to all, as the "protection" and access to others the comminuty gives the individual is desired by the members.
That's enough of me acting as if I know what I am talking about. Off to lie down for the rest of the day

On Rules of Conduct
Maybe, as someone pointed out, my essay is too long to be read online; or, perhaps it was ignored by those commenting. It advocates for the voluntary adoption of standardized rules of coduct by all interactive sites based on public policy balanced against property interests. I believe that a site on which "anything goes" is as offensive as a site that censors all which doesn't make the "owner" a profit. I certainly don't oppose the existence of rules of conduct. Rather, they are a duty, and ignored by some extreme sites that promote illegal drug use, illegal access to pornography, violence, and other activities that violate public policy.
Yes, I didn't know what "POV" meant. Thanks for the info.
As to self-promotion advice -- start when you're young. Don't wait until your novel or story is finished, as I did at age 55. Establish relationships on as many sites as possible, including those that have nothing to do with SF or whatever genre you're into, and those that have anything related to your novel or other personal interests. When I posted here and there, it went straight to marketing, which was not necessarily a mistake for me given my age and the circumstances. Some of you are much younger and have the time to establish relationships -- soft sell -- a much better option if available.
Personally, I don't believe, as someone posted, that the quality of your work has much to do with its success. Sure, there are a few examples here and there of someone who made it in sports, rap, writing, and other entertainment fields "against the odds." However, the days when Elvis was discovered while singing on a front stoop are long gone. I believe that much better manuscripts mold than are published, the same as better rappers can be found in most housing projects compared to on CD. Therefore, I also recommend that you not depend totally on your art to promote itself. Authorities think about one thing -- profits. That's not a crit. I recommend that you make your work look profitable.
If you form relationships first, which I didn't have the time to do, it is less likely that your self-promotion will be regarded as spam. The public, it seems that the youth especially, have been conditioned by the status quo profiteers to reject self-promotion using a simplistic defintion of "spam." My advice is that it this happens to you, fight back. You are not spam and telling people about your work, about which they would never hear, is in the public interest. Don't let it get to you. Your success would reduce the profits of the well-established, and that's the only reason that the simplistic definition was promoted and that some get so aggressive. The circumstances were just right for the Haves to condition consumers to reject self-promotion by newbies, but this may change as the marketplace continues to deteriorate.
Lastly, I've not said anything negative about this place. This is a good site and the world is better off for its existence. I don't want, of course, anybody to get cancer and don't remember my comment that would have left such an impression.

Hey, I was neither angry or annoyed! I'm actually fascinated... you can tell when I am angry, I don't post at all!
So basically, Robert, in your post above, you are recommending that writers do the exact opposite to what you have done here at SFFW. At last we agree on something.
I get it now... you are the 'Jesus' of new authors. You want to get banned for the sins of us new, marketing-retarded wannabe writers.

It did seem v. bizarre but then... a lot of what you've supposed here seemed bizarre, hence my inability to take it seriously (as was evident by most of my posts).
Awww, thanks for your nice comments MrBF1V3, and the lovely song Erebus and the really sensible words, Hols. V. sensible. Incredibly sensible.
I still wonder (and this is my personal hangup as many of you know) how anyone doesn't know what POV stands for if they have written a novel. Surely they had viewpoint issues in said novel and had to seek help from books or other writers... in which case the term pov would've been familiar. It brings up quality issues. Of course, marketing is a big part of success, as roberteggleton has rightly said, but if the quality isn't there, it always comes back to bite authors, and it comes back ugly.
roberteggleton, I need to know your quality assurance procedures (crit group, manuscript assessment, mentorship, etc) and whether you understand the terms viewpoint or pov. How would you rate your novel on other criteria, like pacing, plot development, characterisation, extension of your chosen genre? Do you know what you are marketing and where it fits in the marketplace? How?
Why didn't you answer my questions about your understanding of the concept of pov in writing, your other non-netbased self-marketing strategies (that is the topic of the thread), and what you hope to achieve by this type of online activity?
August 20th, 2006, 06:07 AM #60I don't want, of course, anybody to get cancer and don't remember my comment that would have left such an impression.
In my opinion, if any site for written word doesn't have an opportunity to present materials by unknowns, including sites maintained by capitalistic authors, the owners, admins, and mods deserve to get cancer only curable by cultural correction. Further, I believe they will.
I generally don't mind the self-promotion threads that appear in the forums. They rarely get any positive response, and sink without a trace (to the extent that i wonder if they are deleted).
It does seem strange to me that some of the self-promoters think that you owe them something. The last one i replied to was offering free exerpts at his site, and hoped you would lobby the publishers to get him published.
He thought my comment was 'rude', but as i'd wasted 30 minutes of my life reading the awful rubbish he's written, i feel i deserve to trash it (not that i did anyway).
Posting information about your work is fine by me, as long as criticism is accepted with the same grace as praise. But either way it wont convince me to part with any money. And sticking it into an ongoing thread that has no relevance is much worse than starting a new thread, as it derails discusions, some of which have taken a lot of effort to get going.

Convicted murderer Scott Cox violates his post-prison supervision
Scott Cox brought contraband into jail, authorities say
Former long-haul trucker Scott William Cox, who was released to Yamhill County Community Corrections last February after serving a 25-year prison sentence for murdering two Portland prostitutes in September 1993, has repeatedly violated conditions of his post-prison supervision
Under post-prison supervision, the 49-year-old Cox has been living in subsidized county jail housing. He has been returned to secure custody with bail set at $10,000.
Cox first received a 14-day jail sanction in mid-July, according to Capt. Tim Svenson of the sheriff's office.
"He received permission to go to the beach," Svenson said. "He took a route that was longer than his approved route which was confirmed by the GPS tracking device he was wearing."
Cox was again charged last Thursday with violating his post-prison supervision for having contact with minor children, according to Svenson.
"He has a girlfriend he visits in the Sheridan area," he said. "Community Corrections received information from our office that he possibly had contact with her minor children while she was present."
The GPS tracker confirmed he had visited the residence and his girlfriend admitted he had been there, according to Svenson.
After being returned to the jail on that violation, he was found to be in possession of a tobacco product, and was charged with supplying contraband, Svenson said.
"The supplying contraband charge relates to introducing anything from a can of tobacco to cigarettes to drugs, anything an inmate is not allowed to have in the facility," he said.
Cox was arraigned Monday before Circuit Court Judge Cal Tichenor on the charge. Bail was set and he was ordered back to court at 1:20 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 3 for a preliminary hearing on the Class C felony charge. McMinnville attorney Greg Perez-Selsky was appointed to represent him.
With good time credit, he had completed his 25-year prison sentence. Because he had been staying at a Newberg motel at the time of his arrest, officials ordered him to begin his post-prison supervision in Yamhill County, rejecting his preference for Douglas County in Southern Oregon.
Cox, who was 29 when he went to prison, was spending his nights in the Yamhill County Jail because he had no other place to live. He was free to move about daily between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
The GPS device allowed community corrections to enforce the strict conditions of his post-prison supervision by tracking his whereabouts.

Wing/hockey dreams
Posted 17 November 2007 - 12:54 AM
I'll get the ball rolling....
I drempt that my friend Mary Jo and I were at an outside rink where the Wings were going to be playing. We were waiting at the entrance where the team would be coming out and we had paper and pens to get autographs. I had brought a textbook from school to study since we had gotten there early. I went to put it back in the car, and instead of the radio, the car had a TV screen. Pavel was on showing his RW jersey and pointing at the number 13 on it.
The sound was fuzzy, so I tuned it in just long enough to hear the words "number 13 was hit in the head by a puck and killed" then the sound went back out. I ran back to Mary Jo and told her what I had heard. The lady standing next to me on the other side of Mary Jo looked just like Oprah, except she was about 7 feet tall. She told me that Pavel was fine, and that I had only heard part of the story. The whole story was that someone had looked back in history and discovered that someone wearing the number 13 had been hit in the head by a puck and killed, and now there was a campaign to force all players wearing the number 13 to change their number. Pavel was refusing.
I was so relieved and thanked the lady. Then the team came out, in alphabetical order. I realized I had left my paper for the autographs in the car, so I dug in my pocket to find something. As Zetterberg came by, I found an old grocery receipt. I tried to get his attention, but he kept walking. The tall lady grabbed his arm and told him that I hadn't gotten an autograph yet. He looked at the receipt and asked, "You're not just going to throw this away, are you?" I said "oh, no Mr. Zetterberg, I could never throw away anything that's been touched by a Red Wing." He gave me an odd look and signed it.
Well, that was my first hockey dream. Anyone else want to share one? I thought this would be a nice place for them since not all fit in the category of "hot" or "icon".

OK, I just had one the other night! It was really weird. Cleary was walking by the side of the road and some guy attacked him with this huge piece of ice and hit broke his arm. Then they ran over it with a car and it was extended and bend really weird.
Then last night I had a dream the these 2 guys along with Nick and Dom were in this America's Next Top Model thing...yeah...

It's not about the Wings, but I go to Bowling Green State University and I go to every.single.hockey game. Every year they hold a charity event called "Skate with the Falcons" and you get to lace up some skates and take the ice with the team for about an hour...chat, take pictures, get to know them. They're an amazing group of guys and, like the Wings, are completely adorable.
After Skate with the Falcons, I had a dream about the star player who is up in the ranks in the nation right now, Whitmore (he just recently had back to back hat tricks, which is awesome!) I had a dream that for some reason he was staying in the suite next to mine and gave me his AIM screenname and told me to IM him after the game. I did and we talked for a while and he asked me if I wanted to come over and watch a movie in his suite. I did and I had a blanket with me and we laid on the couch for a while and watched some DVD that just came out. Around 2am he was getting something to eat in his common room when someone knocked on the door. It was his mother and she came in yelling and freaking out about having a girl in his room so late and why were they giving him money to have girls in his room so late. So I left and told him good luck and he came to my room about 15 minutes later to tell me that he was sorry for the way that his mother acted and would I like to have dinner the next day. We sat on the couch and had coffee and talked for a while and then I woke up.
I thought the funny part about this dream is the fact that he is not one of the players I would have found myself day dreaming about. Also, he doesn't get money from the 'rents, he's on a full ride
i hope you enjoyed!

I have a hamster named Niklas Matthieu Daniel Robert. The one before that was Henrik Pavel Tomas Nicklas Dominik. For those of you not familiar with hamsters, if you have a Syrian hamster (as opposed to a dwarf hamster) it can not be in a cage with another hamster. If they are the same sex, they will kill each other, and if they are of the opposite sex, they will mate like you wouldn't believe.
I dreampt that my friend, who I'll call "Nancy" was a hamster. She had her same voice, but she was a hamster. Dom and Ozzie were also hamsters. I only had two cages, so I couldn't put them together, so one was always out running in the ball. Nancy and I could talk, but I couldn't talk to Dom or Ozzie. I wanted Nancy to talk to them in hamster and tell me what they said, but she wouldn't get near them because of the hamster mating habits. I kept having to rotate them from the ball so they could "remove bodily wastes" in the cage rather than the ball and get some rest.
I kept begging Nancy to get in the cage with them and talk to them, but she kept saying, "no way! I'm not the hockey fan- you screw them".
Totally insane, I know, but I did warn you I had weird dreams.

My favorite dream was when my friend and I were fleeing (from someone... dunno who) and broke into a big, fancy house to escape. We ended up in the kitchen, which looked like one of those expensive, high-end makeover kitchens you see on HGTV -- all marble and stainless steel and beautiful cabinets.
Who should walk into the kitchen but Dom, who calmly poured us nice glasses of wine, and then chatted with us while he cooked us a wonderful dinner. He was utterly charming, and not at all surprised to see us, somehow.
No hamsters in my dream, talking or otherwise, thankfully.

I some how made it to ice level and I was riding in the back of a glass zamboni with my friends. One of them jumo off, givies Cheli a kiss, and climbs back in. I'm thinking, "She doesn't even like hockey."
Then two nights ago I was at a bowling ally(in my dream) and the Wings were there and this guy announces "If you want to bowl with the Red Wings, go ahead." I thought it was weird that that was all you had to do to see them.
And at the end of the lane there were a bunch of jersey's and Red Wings stuff insted of pins. Nick goes to bowl and the ball hits one gutter, bounces off to the other, bounces off that one, and ends up in the back of the lane.
Then my alarm clock scared me awake and I had to go to school.
I don't know if I told this one before(sorry if I did). This one dream I had I couldn't be separated from Lija because he was suppost to protect me from something. Then I lost him and I was really scared and freaked out. So I went down this alley and knocked on a door for help. Nick happed to answer so I stayed with him and he helped me find Lils.-That was my favorite!

I see Pasha in my dreams every night. One that I remember is being in a secondhand shop with my hubby, and they had an accordion in there that they knew nothing about - no idea if it were in tune, or what kind of shape it was in or anything. Since I do play (in real life), I sat down and gave it a look through. While I'm doing that, Pasha and Henrik walk in. As part of the process, I started playing a tune that I love (I won't even attempt the name of it - it's Gaelic)...it is a very slow, sad song. Here come the two of them around the corner and they stop and listen to the song.
Comes to the last verse of the tune, and I happen to look up and see Pasha. I have tears in my eyes (you have to hear this song to know that it's very sad and beautiful), and he looks sad as well (no tears though). When I finish the tune, I try to forget he's there because I'm so nervous and scared...but it doesn't happen. So in the end, we sit and talk about music, and life and all kinds of other things.
I know, not as weird as the hamsters...

I dreamed that Downey scored...seriously. Its crazy but i have dreams of fighters scoring goals and non-fighters fighting...everything is ass backwards.
Wouldn't it be awesome if that happened. Like in one game Downey scores and Hank or Nick get into fights. I would love to see that! They act all calm and cool, but I bet they could tear a spine or two out if they wanted to. I think the Calgary series was the closest thing to Nick knocking the S word out of someone. There's that pic of him 'fonting Iginla. You know that'd be no contest.
OK sorry to get off topic there. Back to Wing/hockey dreams

I had just added a to-ta-lly politically incorrect joking comment here, but had to delete it. It would've made many people flinch. Though I thought since I'm from Belgium - we had people on both sides in both wars though it's hardly ever mentioned by anyone - I was qualified to be crude.
Those countries who were involved in the world war "from a distance" (ie. no/hardly any fighting on their territory) seem to be the ones who like reminiscing on the wars most, I have found. And they often have a very black and white view on it too. You'll have to learn to shrug it off and just nod politely.
Looks like an interesting trip. But lots of long sleeves, I see.

But what caught my eye was the category where the trip was posted.
NOT in NORTH AMERICA, but in usa.
& there are 1/2 of the pictures with MOUNTIES, ie CANADA's national police force, the RCMP, or ROYAL CANADIAN MOUNTED POLICE. Yes, the province of Saskatchewan is mentioned, but it is still placed in the category USA. UGH, UGH, UGH, UGH, UGH, UGH.
I chose CANADA, & I care!!!!
I came to this place partly because an Aussie I know suggested I might to answer a question re. Canada.
Please don 't lump Canada or things Canadian in with the USA. WE are very DIFFERENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, the rig you used. Fine to try to fix something up. Others I have known have rented and been pleased with their result. The rig they rented worked. & these are folks who have fixer-upers at home. But the time to fix something up vs. the time to visit and see places. For those who go to see, the rental is a much better choice over spending time on parts, etc.
For my trip to Oz I've had it suggested that I buy, but the person who suggested that has conceded that rental is a more practical option. Again for the same reasons. Sure, if you buy you're not paying mileage, but you're spending lots and lots of time on the rig. & there are reasonable rental oufits in Oz, too.
Next trip rent.
& next trip call Canada, Canada. It is a different place. I find it funny that someone who visited missed that point, very funny, as in weird and un-observant.

Paul McCartney Announces Fenway Park Show
Tuesday, April 2, 2013
Paul McCartney has announced the first stadium stop for this summer's Out There tour, with the former Beatle hitting Boston's Fenway Park on July 9th. McCartney, who last played the ball field over two nights in 2009, has only one other North America show scheduled, when he headlines Manchester, Tennessee's Bonnaroo Festival, which runs from June 13th through 16th. Tickets to the Fenway show will go on sale beginning Friday, April 5th at 10 a.m. ET at LiveNation.com or RedSox.com. American Express Cardmembers can purchase tickets before the general public beginning Tuesday, April 2nd at 10 a.m. ET through Thursday, April 4th at 10 p.m. ET.
McCartney's press release reads in part: "Paul is throwing himself into 2013 with full force following yet another landmark year in 2012, which saw him conclude his record-breaking On The Run tour, release his Grammy-winning Kisses On The Bottom album, accept a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, play at both the Diamond Jubilee and Olympics Opening Ceremony, be named MusiCares Person of the Year, and headline 12-12-12 The Concert For Sandy Relief -- to highlight just a few memorable moments. With the Out There tour and a new studio album in the works, it looks like 2013 will show no signs of Paul slowing down. . . The Out There tour will see Paul and his band travel the world throughout the year, visiting both places of historical significance to Paul and new spots for the very first time.
Paul McCartney explained that unlike the early touring days of the Beatles in which they would be trapped in their hotels rooms due to safety concerns, he tries to get out and about and stay in shape when on the road: "I've got a bunch of things I like to do, as you say, y'know, it is good to kind of balance it. I don't really have any sort of work-out programs. I sometimes do a little bit of yoga, which is really cool, to get some stretches -- y'know that's a bit meditative. I've got a little sunfish sailboat; it's about 14-feet long. It's just a single-man craft. You can just about get two people on it. The (touring) trucks take that around, so if ever I get a moment, y'know, I'll go for a little sail."
UPDATED: Paul McCartney tour dates (subject to change):
May 4 - Belo Horizonte, Brazil - Mineirao Stadium
May 6 - Goiania, Brazil - Serra Dourada Stadium
May 9 - Fortaleza, Brazil - Castelao Stadium
June 13 - 16 - Manchester, Tennessee - Bonnaroo Festival (***Show Date TBA)
June 22 - Warsaw, Poland - National Stadium
June 25 - Verona, Italy - Roman Amphitheatre
June 27 - Vienna, Austria - Happel Stadium
July 9 - Boston, MA - Fenway Park

November - December Short Story Competition
"The machine had been invented a few years ago: a machine that could tell, from just a sample of your blood, how you were going to die. It didnt give you the date and it didnt give you specifics. It just spat out a sliver of paper upon which were printed, in careful block letters, the words DROWNED or CANCER or OLD AGE or CHOKED ON A HANDFUL OF POPCORN. It let people know how they were going to die.
"The problem with the machine is that nobody really knew how it worked, which wouldnt actually have been that much of a problem if the machine worked as well as we wished it would. But the machine was frustratingly vague in its predictions: dark, and seemingly delighting in the ambiguities of language. OLD AGE, it had already turned out, could mean either dying of natural causes, or shot by a bedridden man in a botched home invasion. The machine captured that old-world sense of irony in death you can know how its going to happen, but youll still be surprised when it does.
"The realization that we could now know how we were going to die had changed the world: people became at once less fearful and more afraid. Theres no reason not to go skydiving if you know your sliver of paper says BURIED ALIVE. The realization that these predictions seemed to revel in turnabout and surprise put a damper on things. It made the predictions more sinister yes, if you were going to be buried alive you werent going to be electrocuted in the bathtub, but what if in skydiving you landed in a gravel pit? What if you were buried alive not in dirt but in something else? And would being caught in a collapsing building count as being buried alive? For every possibility the machine closed, it seemed to open several more, with varying degrees of plausibility.
"By that time, of course, the machine had been reverse-engineered and duplicated, its internal workings being rather simple to construct, given our example. And yes, we found out that its predictions werent as straightforward as they seemed upon initial discovery at about the same time as everyone else did. We tested it before announcing it to the world, but testing took time too much, since we had to wait for people to die. After four years had gone by and three people died as the machine predicted, we shipped it out the door. There were now machines in every doctors office and in booths at the mall. You could pay someone or you could probably get it done for free, but the result was the same no matter what machine you went to. They were, at least, consistent."
-Introduction to 'The Machine of Death.'
And so with this introduction as our guideline, we venture into the final short story competition of 2012. I take no credit for this idea, I merely discovered this collection of short stories and thought it would make for an interesting theme.
The rules:
-Your entry must be between 1500-5000 words
-Your story must involve a character who has learned the manner of their own demise (because they got a slip of paper from a machine that told them so.)
-The title of your story must be the cause of death on that slip of paper. Here are some examples of story titles/causes of death from the Machine of Death short story collection:
- Flaming Marshmallow
- Firing Squad
- Cancer
- Almond
- HIV Infection From Machine Of Death Needle
- Exploded
- Murder and Suicide, Respectively
- Exhaustion From Having Sex With A Minor
- Heat Death of the Universe
- Nothing
- Killed By Daniel
These are just some of the titles that are part of the Machine of Death collection, to give you an idea of what some people have come up with. I am NOT asking you to use these existing titles. Come up with your own, if possible.
Due date will be December 26th, Midnight in your respective time-zone.
Have fun!

The preambular introduction is full of logical inconsistencies, but I'll bite...
November 5th, 2012, 02:33 AM #5
I like this. So we post this a separate thread in the stories section, like that?
Or is there something else at foot I'm not aware of?
November 5th, 2012, 06:22 AM #6
I'm game. Is this the same format as the stories in the book?
November 5th, 2012, 11:38 AM #7
My first thought is FEATHERS. But-- already written, and it was a flash. (Is anyone old enough around here to remember that?)
Interesting idea, Let me mull on it a while.

Nov/Dec Short Story Entry - Title of Story
As for format, do whatever you please; your story can be as similar/dissimilar to the format of the book as you like.
November 5th, 2012, 02:27 PM #9
EDIT: Clearly, it is. I just reread your original post and you say so right there.
Label of death has, immediately, become leading candidate for my story's title, btw.

I remember the feathers
November 8th, 2012, 10:09 AM #11
I started something yesterday, I've got about 1200 words so far and a vague idea about what my story is.
I think I'll expand the rules a little bit, since many of the stories in "The Machine of Death" do this, and since I've inadvertently started doing this myself with my entry: Your story title/cause of death has to be prevalent in your story, but does NOT necessarily have to be the cause in which your main character dies. The first story in the book, entitled "Flaming Marshmallow", is an example of this. That title represents someone else's cause of death, not that of the main character.
November 8th, 2012, 11:32 AM #12
I started brainstorming titles yesterday and wound up plotting my story out in some detail. I'm glad to read your last post because, although I will follow through on the titular death, I'm working it into something that hints at other parts of this story world as well.
November 9th, 2012, 08:17 AM #13
I had a productive night last night. I'm now up to 3,658 words. This story has taken some turns in really weird directions, even for me.

I hope everyone's found some inspiration for this one and have started working on a story.
I reached 4000 words with my entry about a week ago, then decided to stop and set it aside for a little while. The story is just too strange, and too different compared to how I normally write. I'm not sure if it works for me or not, so I'm hoping to flush it from my memory by starting up some other stories. I'll look back at it a few weeks from now hopefully with a fresh perspective, I'll see how I like it then.

I'm heading for the halfway point of my entry and I'm simultaneously really enjoying it and a little frustrated; only because, unlike other prompts, this is so integrally connected to one line of books that it's basically impossible to submit it anywhere else. I guess that's a reason for me to buy a copy of volume two next summer in the hope they decide to go for volume three!

|Hallasan (Halla Mountain) rises up proudly from the center of Jeju Island and is perhaps one of the island's most memorable landmarks. Also called Mt. Yeongjusan, meaning 'mountain high enough to pull the galaxy,' Mt. Hallasan is widely acknowledged by scholars for its research value. Designated as a National Park in 1970, there are 368 parasitic mountains called 'Oreums' (peaks) around Halla Mountain.
Mt. Hallasan is famous for its vertical ecosystem of plants that results from the varying temperatures along the mountainside. Over 1,800 kinds of plants and 4,000 species of animals (3,300 species of insects) have been identified; to explore the mountain's treasures, simply follow one of the well-developed mountain hiking trails.
Hallasan Mountain is relatively easy to hike. With hiking courses less than 10km in length, it is possible to go to the peak and back in one day. However, the weather is very changeable and there is a lot of wind, so make sure that you are well prepared before you start climbing up the mountain.
