In this future everyone knows exactly when they die. Boys live to age 25 and girls live to age 20. In this future young girls are kidnapped to keep the human race from going extinct. When Rhine is 16 she is taken by the Gatherers and gets married in wealth and luxury. While it might sound great, to Rhine it's like prison. Yes her husband loves her genuinely and she has her sister wives, but she really wants to escape and find her twin brother to go home.
But escaping isn't as easy as it sounds...

Did I miss the follow up to....
The poster who had posted asking if a rug she found on Overstock was the same from one of the high end stores??
If I remember correctly the OP was going to order both.
Just wondering whatever came of the Overstock rug.
Sorry not to follow up! I only ordered the overstock rug. It looks great, as expected from the pics. I didn't order the horchow one, so I can't compare quality between the 2. The KPI is probably pretty low on this one. Definitely not heirloom quality, which I wasn't expecting for the price.
Overall I think it's good enough, and very pretty. I'm at the tail end of a new build, and have PLENTY of places that need that extra $3400 before a new rug. I don't think looking at it in the context of my new house anyone would think it's anything less than a good rug. And if they do, they'll forget after a couple of glasses of wine :)

This kit works flawlessly when repairing a Kokatat neck gasket. It will also work on NRS and other neck gaskets but will require a bit more attention to detail as the step by step instructions are for a Kokatat neck gasket repair. (Manufacturer's neck gasket styles can vary slightly)

dry soil - fall garden
We were really looking forward to planting a fall garden. I have the following seeds:
pak choi
I am in central NC. Like most of the area, we had excessive rains in the early summer. But we are dry now, no rain in at least 6 weeks. We turned the garden over about two weeks ago and it is bone dry. I don't think I can plant seeds in this. Its getting so late now that I don't even know if its worth dragging the hose all the way up to the garden (which is 250 feet from the house) to try and wet it down enough to plant. What would you do?
Of the seeds I listed, what is not too late to plant here in central NC?
On the other hand, we are enjoying a bountiful apple harvest. Our first one since starting our orchard 5 years ago.
Many thanks for advice!
I use the Watt Quarles seed co planting guide. I had thought that the last time for seeds was a month ago, but I see that some of these fall crops could still just barely go in. Take a look. It is very useful for central NC.

Vera and her sister Paula were terrific guests. They stayed in our suite for a number of days, and were delightful, considerate company. I give them my highest recommendation!
Vera, Chris, Kona and Khula were great guests. The puppies really enjoyed Hardy's toys and our big back yard. Chris made us a wonderful rum drink that we all shared on the back deck. Chris and Vera were very helpful and thoughtful, always taking care of Kona and Khula. Prior to leaving they removed the sheets and took them to the laundry room.
Thank you!

Faith Hill and Tim McGraw Splitting Up: Country Singer Tells Kenny Chesney 'Keep Your Nose Out Of My Business!' [UPDATE]
While country superstars Tim McGraw and his wife Faith Hill stay silent about their divorce rumors while they plan their Soul2Soul show in Las Vegas-- speculation is swirling even more claiming McGraw is now at war with Kenny Chesney because of the rumors, National Enquirer reported.
While country superstars Tim McGraw and his wife Faith Hill plan their Soul2Soul show in Las Vegas-- speculation is swirling even more claiming McGraw is now at war with Kenny Chesney because of divorce rumors surrounding the couple, National Enquirer reported Monday.
Tim McGraw & Faith Hill Promote "Soul2Soul" Las Vegas Concerts [PHOTOS/AUDIO]
McGraw is ready to be a single man but Hill wants to try and fix problems in their 17-year marriage, an unnamed source told the tabloid. She reportedly asked in September if Chesney could convince her husband to stay in the relationship and not file for divorce.
"She begged Kenny to talk with Tim and get him to stop humiliating her in public and start working on their marriage," the insider said. "All of Kenny's instincts were telling him to stay out of it. He argued with Faith, telling her that he and Tim have not been close lately. But Faith has also been Kenny's friend for many years and he could see she was frantic."
"[Chesney] eventually caved and told her he'd speak with Tim," the source added. "[When they were on the phone] Tim screamed, 'Stay away from Faith and keep your nose out of my business!' "
The source went on to say that McGraw might not have been too happy to hear from Chesney. Hill's husband is reportedly jealous Chesney is a a "bigger star than him." The singers teamed up on their Brothers of the Sun tour last year and McGraw allegedly acted like "a complete jerk" toward Chesney on the road, which left the two on bad terms.
McGraw and Hill's second round of their Soul2Soul in Las Vegas kicks off Friday, Oct. 25, and runs through April 2014.

The Inceptia Institute's student loan spotlight contributor, Allison Smith, is a call center counselor at Inceptia and recent college graduate. Allison will regularly offer her insight and advice on student loan repayment and money management, from what's happening in the call center to the latest and greatest tips to help students stay on top of their loans.
Today's Spotlight: I wish I had known my grace period!
Most of the students that I speak with on a daily basis know what a grace period is. In fact, that was one of the only things I knew about my loans when I graduated. Simply put, the grace period is the six month gap between when a student leaves school and when they are required to make their first loan payment. For me, fresh out of college and unemployed, that sounded amazing. I had six months before I had to start paying. Six months until I had to find a job. I wouldn't even have to think about my loans until then, right?
Wrong. The grace period is a huge source of confusion for many students, especially those who frequently enter and exit school for whatever reason, and those who go through multiple degree programs. Obviously, that six month window is not as simple as everyone thinks. So for today's spotlight, I'll clear up some of the common misconceptions of the grace period.
Grace Period Myth #1: My grace period lasts six months. True, most of the time. You get six months UNLESS you have Perkins loans. Perkins loans get a nine month grace period. To find out if you have Perkins Loans, visit www.nslds.ed.gov again. Perkins loans will say 'Perkins' next to them. All loans that don't say 'Perkins' will have the six month grace period. (For the Department of Education explanation of Perkins loans, visit http://www2.ed.gov/programs/fpl/index.html )
Grace Period Myth#2: My grace period starts after I graduate. True, assuming you never took more than six months off from school or fell below half-time enrollment status for over six months. Every time you stop taking classes or are under half-time, the grace period starts. If you go back to classes or go over half-time before the six months is up, the grace period will be recycled and start fresh once you leave school again. For most schools, 'half-time' means you have to be taking OVER six credit hours at a time. However, contact your school's registrar or financial aid office to see what they consider 'half-time'.
Grace Period Myth #3: I get a six month grace period every time I leave school. False. Each loan gets ONE grace period, and once you use it you can't get it back. Once you've used your grace period, even if you go back to school, you will immediately be put back into repayment once you stop taking classes or fall below half-time status. Yes, even if you're just taking the summer or a semester off. Your servicer will expect payments or some other arrangement during that gap, so plan accordingly. However, if you took out loans for your undergrad program, used your grace period on those loans and then took out new loans for your master's program, those loans for the master's program will have their own grace period once you graduate or leave the school for six months. New student loans get a new grace period. So even though you'd have to resume payments on the undergrad loans immediately, the master's loans would still have that six month gap.
Of course, on occasion, mistakes happen. If your servicer is telling you that you're in repayment already and you believe you should be in your grace period, contact them immediately and ask them about it. Occasionally they will have you send in enrollment verification from your school to prove that the grace period shouldn't have been used, but if you can prove that there was an honest error, they will fix it for you. Understanding what you're dealing with from the beginning of your repayment is key to paying off the loan. Don't hesitate to educate yourself a little bit further.
Take the next step in repaying your student loans: Check out your loans at www.nslds.ed.gov and note which ones should still have the grace period intact. Contact your servicer immediately with any questions or concerns.

Contrary to the picture often 'painted' by today's media, young people do not all have great self-confidence and are not disproportionately disruptive, unruly, lazy, dangerous and rude.
Today's young people face many challenges on their road to adulthood. Compared to previous generations, they may face greater levels of parental unemployment, a greater percentage of lone-parent families, huge competition for every job vacancy, a proliferation of dubious role-models and the negative stereo-typing of young people to name just a few.
Everyone can benefit from having somewhere that provides opportunities to develop existing skills, learn new ones, meet and make new friends outside their current group, learn how to get along with people of all ages and abilities and be part of making a positive difference to other people's lives.
Scarborough YMCA has been providing these opportunities for many decades.
In addition, our engaging, life-enhancing activities help to improve self-confidence, self-worth and practical ways to improve employment prospects.
All YMCAs are locally managed to respond to the needs of the community. In Scarborough we have developed a strong reputation for engaging people of all ages in a variety of activities including dance, singing, sport, arts and volunteering, as well as on- and off-stage opportunities in our 290-seat community theatre.
As well as being home to a number of Dance and Performance Schools, we offer meeting rooms, dance studios and a gymnasium for hire. Mini Monkey Gym and FitSteps both run their sessions at Scarborough YMCA. We also offer Ju Jitsu, Fencing and Musical Theatre classes.
We have a very well-equipped 290-seat theatre which plays host to numerous productions each year. Our theatre is also ideal for companies or groups wishing to deliver a seminar, training session or presentation to a large group in comfort. Click here for more information on Forthcoming Productions.
We are always keen to show people around and find that most are surprised by what we have to offer.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC and VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/30/13 -- Cogeco Cable Inc. ("Cogeco Cable") (TSX:CCA) and Peer 1 Network Enterprises, Inc. ("PEER 1") (TSX:PIX) announced today that 124,112,692 common shares (the "Deposited Shares") of PEER 1, representing approximately 96.57% of the outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") of PEER 1 (calculated on a fully-diluted basis), have been validly deposited prior to the expiry of the offer (the "Offer") made by Cogeco Cable, through its indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary 0957926 B.C. LTD. (the "Offeror"), to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common Shares for $3.85 per Common Share in cash. All conditions of the Offer have been satisfied and the Offer has now expired and will not be extended. The Offeror has taken up all of the Deposited Shares and payment for the Deposited Shares will be made on or before February 1, 2013 to Computershare Investor Services Inc., as depository under the Offer, for payment to PEER 1 shareholders who have validly deposited their Common Shares under the Offer.
"We are excited that all conditions of our Offer have been satisfied and are thrilled with the prospects this acquisition presents to Cogeco Cable shareholders, customers and employees," said Louis Audet, President and CEO of Cogeco Cable.
"We are fully committed to implementing our growth strategy in the data centre services sector and to further develop our robust service suite for businesses across Canada, the U.S. and parts of Europe. PEER 1, along with Cogeco Cable's subsidiary Cogeco Data Services, will focus on delivering a seamless solution for our customers' increasingly sophisticated and complex needs. The infrastructure and expertise of both organizations provides us with the scale and scope to maximize potential growth in the enterprise services market," concluded Mr. Audet.
"This transaction opens new possibilities for our customers, management and employees," said Fabio Banducci, President and CEO of PEER 1. "Similar to Cogeco Cable and its subsidiaries, PEER1 strives to provide exceptional customer service and deliver technological excellence to our customers."
As the Offer was accepted by holders of more than 90% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted basis), Cogeco Cable will take control of PEER 1's board of directors and operations and intends to acquire through the Offeror all of the remaining Common Shares not deposited under the Offer pursuant to the compulsory acquisition provisions in Section 300 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Cogeco Cable expects to mail a notice of compulsory acquisition (the "Notice of Compulsory Acquisition") to all remaining holders of Common Shares shortly. Cogeco Cable further intends to cause the Common Shares to be de-listed from the Toronto Stock Exchange and to cause PEER 1 to cease to be a reporting issuer under applicable securities laws as soon as possible.
In connection with the completion of the Offer, Cogeco Cable has entered into secured revolving credit facilities in the amount of the Canadian equivalent of $250 million and having a maturity of four years as well as secured term credit facilities in the amount of the Canadian equivalent of $400 million and also having a maturity of four years, with a syndicate of lenders led by National Bank of Canada and will fund the payment for the Deposited Shares using the new credit facilities.

Through its two-way broadband cable networks, Cogeco Cable provides its residential customers with Analogue and Digital Television, High Speed Internet ("HSI") and Telephony services.

Certain statements contained in this press release may constitute forward- looking information within the meaning of securities laws. Forward-looking information may relate to Cogeco Cable's or PEER 1's future outlook and anticipated events, business, operations, financial performance, financial condition or results and, in some cases, can be identified by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "intend", "estimate", "predict", "potential", "continue", "foresee", "ensure" or other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In particular, statements and information regarding the timing of payment for Deposited Shares, the acquisition of Common Shares not deposited prior to the expiry of the Offer pursuant to a compulsory acquisition transaction, the mailing and filing of the Notice of Compulsory Acquisition, Cogeco Cable's intention to delist the Common Shares and cause PEER 1 to cease to be a reporting issuer are forward-looking statements. In addition, statements regarding Cogeco Cable's or PEER 1's future operating results and economic performance and its objectives and strategies are forward-looking statements.
These statements are based on certain factors and assumptions including expected growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities which Cogeco Cable or PEER 1, as applicable, believes are reasonable as of the current date. While management considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to Cogeco Cable or PEER 1, as applicable, they may prove to be incorrect. Cogeco Cable and PEER 1 caution the reader that the economic downturn experienced over the past few years make forward-looking information and the underlying assumptions subject to greater uncertainty and that, consequently, they may not materialize, or the results may significantly differ from Cogeco Cable's and PEER 1's expectations. It is impossible for Cogeco Cable or PEER 1 to predict with certainty the impact that the current economic uncertainties may have on future results. Forward-looking information is also subject to certain factors, including risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from what Cogeco Cable or PEER 1 currently expect. These factors include technological changes, changes in market and competition, governmental or regulatory developments, general economic conditions, the development of new products and services, the enhancement of existing products and services, and the introduction of competing products having technological or other advantages, many of which are beyond Cogeco Cable's and PEER 1's control. These factors also include actions taken by PEER 1 shareholders in respect of the Offer and the compulsory acquisition process. Therefore, future events and results may vary significantly from what management currently foresees. For more exhaustive information on these risks and uncertainties, prospective purchasers should refer to the risk factors described in the management's discussion and analysis of Cogeco Cable for the year ended August 31, 2012 and the risk factors described in the annual information form of PEER 1 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

The following is a roundup of soccer stories from U.K. newspapers, with clickable Internet links.
Frank Lampard's late penalty kick sent 10-man Manchester City to its first Premier League defeat of the season as Chelsea rallied for a 2-1 win.
Chelsea beat Benfica to set up a Champions League semifinal against tournament favorite Barcelona, while Real Madrid also won at home to advance to a final four meeting with Bayern Munich.
Fernando Torres ended a five-month goal drought with two strikes in Chelsea's 5-2 win against Leicester City in the quarterfinals of English soccer's F.A. Cup. His former team Liverpool beat Stoke City 2-1 to advance.
Liverpool overcame Fernando Torres 's transfer deadline day exit with a 1-0 win at Chelsea, the Spanish striker's new team, to continue its resurgence under Kenny Dalglish .
A late header from Cristiano Ronaldo lifted Portugal past the Czech Republic 1-0 and into the semifinals of the European soccer championship.
West Ham beat Liverpool 3-1 to climb off the bottom of English soccer's Premier League, boosting the east London's club fight against relegation. Manchester City and Fulham tied 1-1.
The banners proclaimed the return of "The King." Yet Kenny Dalglish 's presence in the home dugout for the first time since he quit as Liverpool manager 20 years ago wasn't enough to inspire victory over neighbor Everton.
Trailing 2-1 overall and playing with 10 men, Chelsea found a way to oust Barcelona and reach the Champions League soccer final.

Linus Torvalds at DECUS `94
The Primary Highlight for the Linux/Unix Community was the special appearance of the "Father of Linux", Linus Torvalds. There were two sessions which featured Linus and both were very informative and entertaining. The sessions were called "An Introduction to Linux" and "Implementation Issues in Linux". During the sessions, I learned a great deal about the Linux Operating System as well as the promising future of Linux.
According to Linus, there are over 176,000 lines of code in the kernel of which 88,000 lines of code are for device drivers. While Linus is the primary author of the kernel, most of the device driver code has been contributed by others.
The history of Linux may be short compared to the Unix time scale: three years versus twenty-five years. However, much has happened since the beginning of Linux. A few milestones for Linux follow:
From 1991 to the present, Linus has demonstrated tremendous dedication to Linux. For example, the virtual memory code was written in just three days-and it was the three days before Christmas! In three short years, Linux has transformed itself from a very simple terminal emulator to a powerful enhanced Unix operating system. A great deal of work is now being done to further enhance the existing kernel and implement new features. Some of the work in progress involves kernel threads, extended memory management, file system optimizations, and ports to other architectures such as the 68K and the Power PC and maybe even the DEC Alpha.
I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with Linus in New Orleans, Louisiana and was able to learn a lot about Linus and what his interests are other than the Linux operating system. This was my first chance to meet Linus in person and I was shocked to find that he was not at all the "computer hacker geek" that I dared to imagine. Linus is one of the nicest and most personable people I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with. He has a wonderful sense of humor and is very funny. I found myself laughing non-stop during our chats. Linus lives at home with his family and cats and likes to spend time with his girlfriend. He teaches at the University of Helsinki.
Lately, he has been traveling around the world talking about Linux. Linus jokes that
"if you want to travel around the world and be invited to speak at a lot of different places, just write a Unix operating system." Upon meeting Linus, one would never dream that he was the author of a Unix operating system; he never brags, boasts or even seems to want very much recognition for his massive effort.
There never seemed to be any selfish attitude at all from Linus. I wish all software developers had the attitude and determination to produce quality code such as Linux and want little, if anything, in return. Someone asked him at DECUS how he felt about other people and companies using part or all the Linux kernel for profit and not giving him any money. Linus simply replied, "I wrote Linux for public use, not for the money."

Nokia N9 is so easy to use, even Steve Jobs would buy one
Nokia just announced Nokia N9 and it looks super awesome. Nokia might be in shambles but it sure can make great hardware. Nokia N9 now boasts of several firsts in the smartphone world. N9 is a pure touch screen interface. No button pressing nonsense. Going to the home menu or moving to a different app is all controlled by gestures. I hope Nokia has filed its patents for this technology. My guess is, quite a few manufacturers will be craving for this unibody touch-only feature.
Nokia N9 also has a the fastest camera available on a smartphone. Click-to-capture in a jiffy is what Nokia N9 promises. Something which I don't have on my iPhone right now, but want it so badly.
Swipe only
Steve Jobs should be commended for being paranoid with iPhone design. That got us all to minimize stuff that can go on a phone. But Jobs has gotten away with all but three hardware buttons on the phone. He is so wishing now that he should have gotten away with the buttons at least on iPhone 4. It's too late. Apple will not be credited for going with a all swipe phone. May be that should stop Apple from buying all the tech companies out there with the spare cash it has.
Nokia N9's swipe only interface is done wonderfully well. A single swipe the current application will show a 3-way split screen with the open app, current app and the home screen. Thus avoiding the need to press the home button. More than the hardware it's the software that makes it possible. And would you be surprised if I say, it was done by Meego? Yes Meego. Meego was a no-go only yesterday and everybody were talking about Mango. Not sure if this would make Meego a blockbuster but people will be talking about it for sure. It still has to deal with the app factor.
64 GB – no kidding
Nokia N9 also has a capability to read 64GB memory. The first of its kind. Kingmax has released the 64GB microSD in May to become the world's first manufacturer to do so. Now Nokia has implemented the ability to read one. Nice.
In the midst of dual core phones and 4.3 inch screens, how does Nokia N9 fare. Not bad. Actually not bad at all. Nokia has right sized the screen size at 3.9 inch. That's a weird size because I haven't seen anyone using it thus far. Yet it feels just right. Anything around 4-inch seems to be a good screen size for a smartphone.
Here are the detailed specs :
- Display: 3.9" WVGA (854×480) AMOLED display with curved Gorilla glass, no air gap, anti-glare polarizer

Oh! don't we love to talk about apps even in our dreams. Apps is the only thing which is separating a good smartphone from a bad smartphone. Nokia N9 has covered the ground quite well. And Nokia is calling them Applications and not apps, which means Apple can breathe easy now. Vimeo, Twitter, Facebook, Skype, Angry Birds, WiFi Hotspot, Foursquare, AP mobile and Accuweather are the default apps. Not sure about you but that's pretty much 80% of my smartphone usage. The other 20% is split between email and any new apps. Of course, Nokia has email on N9. For new apps, ovistore will fill in. The store might not be as exciting as the Apple store, but seriously how often do you use all of them apps which you downloaded? I downloaded WolframAlpha – don't ask why – and I hardly use it. Even though I have paid for it. Come to think of it, I am not using my iPhone for anything else. Are you?
Nokia N9 should usher in new trends in smartphone segment which is riddled with extra cores and larger screens. Nokia has shown the way with the only-swipe interface. That opens up a lot of possibilities.
Nokia N9 is a phone which will be on everybody's wish list, including Steve Jobs. Jobs might print a Apple log at the back and use it secretively. When N9 comes out give it to a kid and see the kid's reaction. I am sure the kid would look at any other smartphone with disdain. The kind of look now reserved for phones with buttons.

I am surprise to see your passive mode of writing. It sounds more like a hands-on experience on Nokia N9. I think its over reaction and lets not compare this with any one or talk in such a manner unless its not available for anyone for hands-on reviews !!!

Hei Sajid,
Thanks for the comment.
Excitement is based on one single fact – Nokia N9 is button less phone. Nothing more, nothing less.
The pictures are just exquisite and very few phones have looked like that beautiful before.ReplyCancel

The N9 has arrived. Functional units of Nokia's long-awaited MeeGo Smartphone have finally landed into our eager hands Check out http://bit.ly/kCbvMH
It's great news for developers… The Nokia N9 Smartphone, based on MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan, is an exciting addition to the range of Qt-powered phones from Nokia.
The new Linux-based platform, called MeeGo, looks fantastic. It's fluid, smooth, and the "swipe" idea looks really interesting.ReplyCancel

Indoleamine-2,3-Dioxygenase (IDO) is an immunosuppressive molecule inducible in various cells. In addition to classic IDO (IDO1), a new variant, IDO2, has recently been described. When expressed in dendritic cells (DCs) or cancer cells, IDO was thought to suppress the immune response to tumors. A novel therapeutic approach in cancer envisages inhibition of IDO with 1-methyl-tryptophan (1MT). The levo-isoform (l-1MT) blocks IDO1, whereas dextro-1MT (d-1MT), which is used in clinical trials, inhibits IDO2. Here we analyze IDO2 expression in human cancer cells and the impact of both 1-MT isoforms on IDO activity.
Surgically extirpated human primary tumors as well as human cancer cell lines were tested for IDO1 and IDO2 expression by RT-PCR. IDO1 activity of Hela cells was blocked by transfection with IDO1-specific siRNA and analysed for tryptophan degradation by RP-HPLC. The impact of d-1MT and l-1MT on IDO activity of Hela cells and protein isolates of human colon cancer were studied.
Human primary gastric, colon and renal cell carcinomas constitutively expressed both, IDO1 and IDO2 mRNA, whereas cancer cells lines had to be induced to by Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ). Treatment of Hela cells with IDO1-specific siRNA resulted in complete abrogation of tryptophan degradation. Only l-1MT, and not d-1MT, was able to block IDO activity in IFN-γ-treated Hela cells as well as in protein isolates of primary human colon cancer.
Although IDO2 is expressed in human tumors, tryptophan degradation is entirely provided by IDO1. Importantly, d-1MT does not inhibit the IDO activity of malignant cells. If ongoing clinical studies show a therapeutic effect of d-1MT, this cannot be attributed to inhibition of IDO in tumor cells.

Matthew Peeler and Brad Rutherford, Young Harris College alumni, hang out backstage on Day 1 of the Carhartt Bassmaster College Series National Championship on Chatuge Reservoir.
Anglers in the Hayesville High School fishing club get briefed on their volunteer duties prior to weigh-in.
Supporters gather around the stage to watch their favorite anglers weigh in.
Wyatt can barely contain his excitement…
…and obviously, neither can Heidi.
Bella is curious how this weigh-in is going to go down. OK, enough with the doggies.
There are people at the weigh-in, too, such as this UNA mom…
…and this EKU dad with special headshot cutouts.
Kids make use of their pre-weigh-in time by taking a few casts at the Toyota targets.
Shannon Fontaine pumps the tunes from his special DJ booth. He really loves dropping "Fancy" on the crowd.
The stage is set. Now it just needs anglers.
The first anglers to weigh in are smiling, but they say they don't have much to smile about. Tough day, they said.
These Hayesville students will be running fish back and forth to the Shimano Live Release boat.
Mitchell McGaha and Trey Anderson will man the live release boat, which will later be taken out on Chatuge to disperse the fish.
A banana on a boat is bad luck; everybody knows that. But a banana on stage? Not sure what that means.
Kenda Moody will hand each angler his weight slip when he comes off stage.
And these Hayesville volunteers are set up at the bag station.
Meanwhile, there's an expo going on, too. One visitor checks in to see what Yamaha has going on.
Boats are on display right behind where the spectators are sitting.
And these boys find the best thing boys can do – chase each other up and down the hill.
The stage sits on the Young Harris College campus with the mountains serving as the backdrop.
The anglers are escorted to the weigh-in via golf cart.

Tootsie Roll Burgers

Food crafts are by far the most fun crafts to make - who doesn't love making an adorable, yummy project? Tootsie Roll Burgers from Candace Jedrowicz may sound like a strange concept, but they are actually tiny burger sculptures made out of candy! Show them off and then eating them up! Delicious!
- Tootsie rolls in the following flavors: chocolate, fruit flavor variety package (vanilla, lemon, cherry, lime & orange), frooties fruit punch flavor (it's much closer to red than cherry, which is pink)
- Toothpick or fork (for creating texture in burger)
- The key to making Tootsie Roll sculptures is to warm them up. I carry them around in my pockets for a while before I work with them.
- Once they are body temperature, they'll be soft enough to knead easily.
- The bun is a mixture of 1 part chocolate, 1 part vanilla and 1/2 part orange.
- Roll two pieces of bun color into balls then flatten them slightly.
- I allowed the the bun halves to touch for this photo, but, I wouldn't leave them touching for more than a minute. They will stick. It won't seem like they could possibly stick the first time they touch, in fact you'll have a hard time getting the sesame seed pieces to stick to the bun, but after a minute or two, you won't be able to get them apart.
- The sesame seeds are vanilla and the burger is chocolate.
- I use a toothpick or fork to make rough edges for the burger patty.
- The cheese is just a piece of orange.
- Be sure to press this piece thin. It's really easy to make them too thick. They seem pretty thin, but when you assemble them you'll be surprised how tall your cheeseburger is.
- The lettuce is lime. The Frooties have a green apple flavor that would work for lettuce as well.
- The tomatoes are fruit punch flavored. I also use this flavor for ketchup.
- The fries are lemon.
For a comprehensive video tutorial, check out How to Make Cheeseburger and Fries from Tootsie Rolls.

What a creative and funny project! I think I will save this one for Halloween, when we have way too much candy in the house. The kids could have a creative candy contest or something!

IMHO, Franzen "floats" a lot less than people here say who "watch the games". He is not paid for speed. He is paid to be a power forward.

If it doesn't include shipping Franzen out of town then his plan sucks.
I don't think we'll see anything major. This is still a great team with a chance at another cup, but with Hudler, Stuart, and Holmstrom gone, I can see Smith up full time and Parise signed. If we sign Parise, I can see Nyquist playing full time and somehow getting rid of Franzen to make room for him. I think all we need is a consistent 35-40 goal scorer.If Lidstrom retires, we'll have more cap room. I'm good either way if he's back or calls it a career.Z and Filp are going no where, I'm surprised people want to see them traded .Sometimes first round exits, in the long run, are a good thing.

Don't. I'm only here for the series.In all honesty though, don't be biased, read the comments. There is nothing wrong with a little friendly ribbing, and poking fun and getting into this rivalry for the Playoffs. However that's not the case since I've joined here. It's been nothing but blatant disrespect and foul words and harsh assumptions around every corner. You simply cannot have a valid/sensible debate on this forum with a Red Wing fan. It's really no fun for either side. I know I'm not having a blast having to defend myself, my city and my team every time I even say the simplest thing. "Red Wings in 6"Me: "I hope Nashville in 6""HICK, REDNECK, RETARD, COUSIN F***ER, ETC."It's shameful and an embarrassment towards real Red Wing fans that I've met in person at home & away games that will actually talk to you like a human and talk hockey, not crude geographical stereotypes or such of the sort.

After the success of the first film, it looked highly feasible that Antonio Banderas would be donning the black garb for a "Mask of Zorror" sequel. Five years later, it still ain't here. Dead in the water, ey? Maybe not. Banderas tells The Associated Press that they're eyeing a February start for the sequel. Originally, the title was known as "Zorro Unmasked" – no idea if that still stands, or whether original co-stars Tony Hopkins or Catherine Zeta-Jones will be back. Martin Campbell directs. One thing's for sure, Melanie Griffith's definitely pencilled in to play the film's form of transport – a gargantuan mid-air blimp.

Chancellor George Osborne scrapped the proposed 3p per litre fuel duty hike altogether in his recent autumn budget statement, but it doesn't mean fuel is going to get any cheaper.
So how can you cut your petrol or diesel costs to the minimum? We've put together some top tips on how to find the cheapest fuel in your area:
However, the main way to save money on fuel is to drive efficiently. That means gentle acceleration and looking ahead to predict traffic conditions. This way, you can avoid heavy braking and acceleration – the killer for fuel economy. You could also check traffic news before you set off on your journey.
Removing needless weight from your boot can help, too. A 10-minute clearout could, over a few months, save just as much as spending hours shopping for the cheapest fuel.

The Pixar Touch is a lively chronicle of Pixar Animation Studios' history and evolution, and the "fraternity of geeks" who shaped it. With the help of animating genius John Lasseter and visionary businessman Steve Jobs, Pixar has become the gold standard of animated filmmaking, beginning with a short special effects shot made at Lucasfilm in 1982 all the way up through the landmark films Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Wall-E, and others. David A. Price goes behind the scenes of the corporate feuds between Lasseter and his former champion, Jeffrey Katzenberg, as well as between Jobs and Michael Eisner. And finally he explores Pixar's complex relationship with the Walt Disney Company as it transformed itself into the $7.4 billion jewel in the Disney crown.

Creating Characters with Personality
Written by Tom Bancroft
 Introduction by Glen Keane
Trade Paperback, 144 pages | Watson-Guptill | Art - Cartooning; Performing Arts - Animation; Design - General | $19.95 | 978-0-8230-2349-3 (0-8230-2349-4)
From Snow White to Shrek, from Fred Flintstone to SpongeBob SquarePants, the design of a character conveys personality before a single word of dialogue is spoken. Designing Characters with Personality shows artists how to create a distinctive character, then place that character in context within a script, establish hierarchy, and maximize the impact of pose and expression. Practical exercises help readers put everything together to make their new characters sparkle. Lessons from the author, who designed the dragon Mushu (voiced by Eddie Murphy) in Disney's Mulan—plus big-name experts in film, TV, video games, and graphic novels—make a complex subject accessible to every artist.

King Palm is dying. Please help. =(
Bought this triple trunk king palm a month ago and it seems to be completely dying. I'm very concerned and will do anything to make it work.
I had guys dig a 4 foot wide and 4 deep hole in very unworkable clay soil. I say that because I initially put water in the hole to see how long it would take to drain.. It took four days to drain 6 inches of standing water. The installers put a good two feet of sand at the bottom of the hold for drainage. But they packed the clay soil around the palm. When I watered it the soil around the truck is like a glue mud muck.. And stays that way for about a week. I don't know what to do. I've called many landscapers and not one was helpful at all. This is my last resort, a forum. Is there anyone, ANYONE that could help advise me on what I can do here? I would be extremely grateful.
It could be that the palm was not acclimated to full sun. Where it was in the nursery was probably shaded part of the day. The brown crown shaft is sunburn. And that's common on King palm trunks facing southwest--hottest sun. The other side is still green- right?
Also..they love water. And the rootball might be going too dry. Mulch it. Keep an even water moisture level. In time they will root into that clay. And when you see new fronds,fertilize lightly--half strength until you see it establish,then full strength for those lush green fronds.
I agree, it could be sun damage. King palms are very tolerant of full sun, but when they are grown in the shade of a greenhouse all their lives, they (and any other palm in that situation) burns in full sun. As long as the newly growing "spear" stays green and healthy, you should be okay. It will take the whole season to look nice again, but it will recover. Keep it well watered when it's warm out, but they don't like wet feet so don't leave it in standing water. I would save the receipt just in case though!
Just following up with this post.
The nursery that I purchased the palms from assured me that all their palms are sun acclimated. So I assumed that it would be ok where it's at. :/
The browning around the crown seems to be around it completely and not just southwest facing. I ended up digging around the root ball and widening the hole and filling it with a sand,clay, mulch/potting soil (50/50) mix. It drains alot better and with no standing water near the trunk. Though it's hard for me to say that it's feet are not overly wet. They did plant it on top of sand so I'd assume we should be ok there with drainage. Still open to advice in addition to the wonderful thoughts already shared.
I also have some serious clay soil. After killing my share of plants (palms included), I learned the error of my ways. I was very excited to plant my first palm, so I dug a huge hole and amended the clay soil to "improve" drainage. It turns out, by digging a huge pit and amending the backfill soil, I basically just created a bog. The soil in the hole just gets saturated with water from rain (or the hose) because it is way more porous than the surrounding area. Then it never drains out through the less porous underlying clay. The best way to deal with clay, is to dig the smallest hole possible, not to amend the soil at all, and plant the rootball slightly above grade. I don't know if this is your problem, but the first palm I killed this way just started to yellow and look wilted all the time. The top of the soil felt fine (dry even) but when I pulled it out the bottom of the hole was a sloppy mess and the roots had rotted.
Just an idea if you like it...Dig them up,and build up that brick another 3-4 layers high and fill with compost and topsoils. You will get more then enough drainage,the area you fill cant be more then a few yards of compost-topsoil so not expensive delivered or better, picked up, and later when the palms get larger they will thank you for your original effort of that layer of sand down deeper.
King palms are really great looking palms. Get them thriving and always a thing of beauty.
