text: Come help us celebrate International Migratory Bird Day by participating in our Spring Bird Count. Galveston County includes some great birding: High Island, the Bolivar Peninsula, Galveston Island, Pelican Island, Texas City, and the mainland, as far north as the Harris County line and as far east and west as Chambers and Brazoria counties. Everyone is welcome! Teams are organized to cover different areas, and participants can bird for part of the day or for the entire 24-hour period. Beginning birdwatchers will be teamed up with more experienced birders, so don't be afraid to help due to lack of experience! If you are simply going to be birding in Galveston County on May 2 and don't want to be on a specific team, you can still participate by getting the forms and keeping records of your sightings. Contact Norma Rubin , by e-mail (preferred) or call 409-763-0667.

It's been a while since we've fired things up for a cross-site Mobile Nations Podcast, so on the eve of Apple announcing a new smaller iPad (happening today), we thought the time was right.
In addition to discussing the latest happenings across mobile platforms, we also discuss one of the big changes coming to our Mobile Nations sites. We'll soon be rolling out Mobile Nations Passport, our long-awaited unified account management system. This is the feature request we hear most often from our members across CrackBerry, Android Central, iMore, Windows Phone Central and webOS Nation, and it's launching soon. To give us the overview and get into some of the details, we have a very special guest on the show, Marcus Adolfsson. It's a Mobile Nations podcast you won't want to miss!

Overnight Open Thread (8-22-2012)
A WSJ Book Review: "Better Off Without 'Em: A Northern Manifesto for Southern Secession"
Travel writer and former Maxim editor, Chuck Thompson, really, really does not like the South (or even states that are just a little too adjacent to it). A better title for his book would be 'Rednecks in the Mist: Those Horrible Horrible People'.
Here is part of Barton Swaim's rather scathing review in the WSJ:
On the first page, the author wonders why the American electoral system must be "held hostage by a coalition of bought-and-paid-for political swamp scum from the most uneducated, morbidly obese, racist, morally indigent, xenophobic, socially stunted, and generally ass-backwards part of the country." You expect him to let up, to turn the argument around, to look at the other side of question. But he never does. For more than 300 pages, Mr. Thompson travels through the South observing customs, outlooks and people and subjecting them to an unremitting stream of denunciations.
And unshockingly he find the South to be a hellhole of racism where among other outrages black and white neighborhoods are <shudder> intermingled:
More disturbing is his refusal to take seriously any evidence that Southern racism has diminished, even when that evidence comes from African-Americans themselves.
Oh and apparently Ohio and Illinois are now part of the South since some of Thompson's examples of Dixie backwardness are located there.
But hey how can you count on mere rivers to hold back such an overwhelming tide of Southern ignorance and iniquity - or a steadily growing stream of Yankee immigrants crossing the border into deepest darkest Dixie looking for a better life.
But the best summary is from this review blurb on the Amazon page:
"Thank you for the copy of Better Off Without 'Em, but I'm afraid it's New York and San Francisco that I think should secede."
Who gained the most from the euro?
Well based on this chart the net effect of the Euro was a massive gain for Greece, Spain, Portugal, and Finland at the expense of every other EU country.
Guardian Writer: "I Wish My Mother Had Aborted Me"
I wish she had aborted me because I love her and want what is best for her.
Which is basically a long-winded way for the author to declare that her life has been a complete waste up until now. But Beisner also covers that point as well:
The world would not be a darker or poorer place without me. Actually, in terms of contributions to the world, I am a net loss. Everything that I have done - including parenting, teaching, researching, and being a loving partner - could have been done as well, if not better by other people. Any positive contributions that I have made are completely offset by what it has cost society to help me overcome the disadvantages and injuries of my childhood to become a functional and contributing member of society.
But after she describes how fucked up her mother was/is, I'm not sure that having a child or not would have made much difference. Perhaps a better title would have been 'I Wish My Mother Have Given Me Up For Adoption' or 'CPS - Where Were You?'.
Oh and Beisner probably needs to get her depression and self-loathing treated - if not for her sake then for her husband's and children's.
In fact the actual number of 'swing voters' who can actually be swung is remarkably small:
In spite of clichés about Nascar dads and Walmart moms, the actual share of voters nationally who are up for grabs is probably between just 3 percent and 5 percent in this election, polling experts say. The Obama and Romney campaigns are expected to spend on the order of $2 billion, in part to try to sway this tiny share of the electorate.
Which is about $220 per undecided vote. And note that 'swing voters' only matter in swing states.
MST3K and the heavily anticipated return of Manos: The Hands of Fate, and RiffTrax
Yep Manos is finally back in theaters but this time in live MST3K/RiffTrax-style.
But we were able to find, on our own, a theatrical print that's very nice. It's better than anything that's out there, so it'll be nice. You know, it tamps the "creepy" down a little bit. But the reason to do it was that we'd all forgotten it. We really had, and we thought after 19 years, there's gonna be a whole bunch of people who haven't been exposed to the horror. And it's only fair that they should have to, since we've endured it. Luckily, we've forgotten everything, so it'll be fresh eyes.
Unfortunately the live national showing was last week. But not to worry - there's something even worse coming:
We're doing a live showing of Birdemic coming up in October, I don't know if you've seen this, but it. it just makes me smile. Manos I find kind of creepy, but Birdemic is bad on that level that...you know, every single choice this guy made was the wrong one. Like every frame of the movie was a wrong choice, every actor was wrong, and yet, it's a sublime experience. The unintentional humor is there throughout, it doesn't really drag in terms of that. That's the one that is currently my favorite.
Worst Hotel in the US: Executive Inn in Belleville, IL
But it's only ranked #8 out of 10 so you could do worse in Belleville. Here's one of the reviews titled, "Bring some bleach. And a weapon":
The window was broken, the carpet was stained to the point that it almost looked like old flannel, the beds were broken and crooked... the bathroom would have been too gross for an uncensored HBO special, I think that the walls in the actual room were made from cardboard
On the other hand the on-site hooker is an amenity that not all chains offer.

The After School XXX Special Awards
The newest recipient of our After School Special Awards goes to Brittni Colleps, a married mother of three and teacher from outside Ft Worth, Texas, who is accused of not only sleeping with five student athletes from her school, but having group sex with four of them all caught on tape. Brittni made sure to do her homework though, as she made sure all the students she packed on top of her were eighteen. The prosecution was so confounded by how to prosecute her that they had to invent a brand new crime just to keep Colleps off the street.
Where the hell were these teachers when I was in school?! My female high school teachers ranged from anti-viagra up to meh at best.

Sweet Potato Dish request
I seem to remember having a sweet potato dish that had pineapple and possibly other vegetables (or not). Does anyone have a T&T recipe for a SP dish that is not the typical marshmallow casserole, not mashed, not overcooked and not ghastly sweet?
I just posted this recipe on another thread, but here it is again. It's Fiery Sweet Potatoes, printed in the New York Times in 2009. The potatoes are mashed, but I like them chunky so I don't beat them to a pulp. You could probably leave them mostly whole. In the NYTimes article, this was the hit among the various Thanksgiving recipes they tested.
Fiery Sweet Potatoes
Time: About 2 hours
5 pounds sweet potatoes
1 cup coconut milk
1 tablespoon Thai red curry paste
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon salt.
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake potatoes on a baking sheet until very soft, about 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, peel and mash.
2. In a small saucepan, heat coconut milk with curry paste over low heat. Mix coconut milk mixture, half the sugar, half the butter, and salt into potatoes. Keep warm until ready to serve, or cover and refrigerate up to two days.
3. At least 30 minutes before serving, heat oven to 425 degrees. Put potatoes in a baking dish, cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover potatoes, dot with remaining butter and sugar and broil until brown and crusty on top, checking often to prevent scorching.
Yield: 10 to 12 servings.
Notes: I've made this, the full 5lbs, following the recipe up through step 2. I've frozen it in portions at this stage. If I'm serving it to guests, I'll finish it with the butter and brown sugar because it makes a prettier presentation. If it's just for DH and me, I skip this. It's good enough as is.
Here is my favorite, I make it every year for T-Day. You can adjust the sugar to taste.
Praline Apples and Sweet Potatoes
Great dish to slide into the oven just as the turkey comes out.
4 large sweet potatoes, cooked and peeled.
4 tart cooking apples, peeled, cored and cut in 1/4" slices
1 stick butter
1C brown sugar
1/2 C sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp salt
1 C pecans, coarsely chopped
Preheat oven to 350�.
Spray a 9X13 pan with non-stick cooking spray
Cut the sweet potatoes in 1" cubes and put into baking pan
Melt butter in a large skillet, over med. high heat. Add apple slices to the melted butter, saute about 5 min., just until the apples begin to soften. Sprinkle with sugars, spices and salt, continue cooking until sugars are melted and apples are cooked but still firm enough to hold their shape. Remove from heat and distribute evenly over the sweet potatoes.
Bake approx. 30 mins, or until heated through and bubbly around the edges.
This is the recipe I use. I don't peel the apples and I sometimes use a bit of brown sugar instead of maple syrup if I don't have it on hand.
Baked Apple Sweet Potato Casserole
8 lg. sweet potatoes (4 lbs. boiled and drained), peeled and cut in 1/4 inch thick rounds (I steam mine)
4 lg. tart apples (2 lbs. peeled, quartered, cored and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices)
1 tbsp. fresh grated or peeled orange rind
1/2 c. unsalted butter
3/4 c. orange juice
1 TBL flour
1/3 c. maple syrup or pancake syrup
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
Lightly grease 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish. Alternate sweet potato and apple slices. Arrange slices slightly overlapping in prepared dish. Mix melted butter and flour in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add other ingredients and bring to boil, stir until smooth. Pour evenly over sweet potatoes and apples. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes until potatoes and apples are lightly glazed.
12 servings. TIP: Make ahead - bake 20 minutes, cover and refrigerate. Before serving, uncover and bake 20-25 minutes until potatoes and apples are tender.
Wow! Thanks for the quick responses. I thought everyone might be too busy cooking.
They all sound really good and love that each allows for doing some ahead or going into oven as turkey exits. I'm not sure which I will make for tomorrow, but definitely will try all soon. I love sweet potatoes! Thanks again!
A recipe was posted here by jojoco (in "Opinions needed on a sweet potato recipe please") on Tue, Nov 24, 09 at 19:20, and jessyf added a suggestion. We combined them and have been making this recipe ever since:
Delicious Sweet Potatoes
6-7 sweet potatoes
one half stick butter = 4 Tbsp
one-third to one-half cup maple syrup
one half cup brown sugar
Dash of cardamom
one-quarter cup bourbon (We use Maker's Mark)
Peel and cut the sweet potatoes in round pieces about three-quarters of an inch thick. Place in a bowl, cover lightly and microwave 5-10 minutes. Potatoes should be slightly soft but not mushy.
Melt the butter, brown sugar and maple syrup in a skillet. Add potatoes. Cover and cook until potatoes are soft (approx. 30-40 minutes). Add bourbon and cook 5 more minutes.
Here are two that I have used:
Lime Cilantro Sweet Potatoes (From Garden Web Forum)
2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4" pieces
3 Tbsp EVOO
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp fresh grated lime zest (I added more)
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice (I added more)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (I used a bit less)
Put oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat to 425
Toss sweet potatoes with 2 Tbsp of oil and 1/4 tsp of salt in a shallow baking dish. Arrange potatoes in 1 layer and roast, stirring halfway though roasting, until tender - about 25 minutes. Stirr together cayenne, zest and remaining salt in small bowl. Whisk together lime juice and remaining Tbsp of oil then add to potatoes. Sprinkle potatoes with cayenne mixture and cilantro and gently stir to combine
Smoked Chile Scalloped Sweet Potatoes by Bobby Flay
(Note white sweet potatoes work best)
2 cups heavy cream (I used 1/4 cup less)
1 heaping Tbsp chipolte pepper puree (buy a can of Chipolte in adobo sauce and puree)
3 medium sweet potatoes peeled and thinly sliced to 1/8 inch thick
Salt and fresh ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 375
Whisk cream and chipolte puree together until smooth
In a 9 x 9 inch casserole dish, arrange the potatoes in even layers. Drizzle with 3 Tbsp of the cream mixture and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, cream, salt and pepper to form 10 layers
Cover and bake for 30 minutes, remove cover and continue baking for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until cream is absorbed, potatoes are cooked through and top is browned.
I went looking for the other post where I asked for the Fiery Sweet Potato recipe and found this post first. Thanks so much for the recipe, it was a big hit. I changed the recipe somewhat based on your note because it sounded like it'd be better slightly chunky rather than mashed. I also added some caramelized carrots, since in addition to the sweet potatoes from the garden I had a large number of assorted colors of carrots from the garden.
The coconut milk and the curry paste really add make the dish great.
You're welcome! We just finished up our T'giving dinner where 6 of us wiped out half of the whole recipe, even with a table crowded with food, so I'd say it's a winner. A friend made it and she likes it mashed, which is fine. Good idea to add the carrots, I'll try that in future.
We took a bike ride around the neighborhood in the early afternoon, and got back much later than we intended. Only about 30 minutes before the turkey was supposed to come out of the oven. So I had to discard the bake-for-an-hour step, and cut the potatoes into chunks and boil them. Meanwhile I browned the carrot slices in olive oil, and then added the coconut milk, curry paste, salt and brown sugar to the carrot pan. Then when then sweet potatoes were cooked, put them in a baking pan, pour on the carrot-coconut-curry sauce, and mix the sauce in and lightly mash the potatoes. Then top with butter and brown sugar as your recipe states and bake for about twenty minutes. So it wasn't quite following the recipe, but the flavor was probably pretty similar and was great.

The former Woodmont Orchard's acres of undeveloped land stretch along Interstate 93 and abut the northern edges of Exit 4, seen in the top-left of this photo looking southward in Londonderry. The development planned for the site, known as Woodmont Commons, would be built in stages over the next 20 years. (File Photo Courtesy Steve Young/ImageAbility Inc.)
Access road likely first step for Woodmont Commons
During Wednesday night's Londonderry Planning Board meeting, attorney Ari Pollack spoke on behalf of Pillsbury Realty, Development, LLC owner Mike Kettenbach, who was seated in the audience.
The development agreement was recorded into the Rockingham County Registry of Deeds in late January, according to Pollack.
Once cemetery plans are finalized, the ownership of the land will be transferred to the town's cemetery trustees and a site plan will go before the Planning Board for approval.
Both the old and the new supermarket buildings sit on Kettenbach's property.
Board member Lynn Wiles wondered if anything else would be built in the near future.
Board member Maria Newman expressed concern over the site's existing businesses, noting that the NH state liquor store, as well as the Baldaria Hallmark store are also housed in the former Market Basket building.
Kettenbach said the two tenants of the building have already agreed to relocate to the other side of the plaza, where the new Market Basket store is located, if need be.
Resident Mike Speltz agreed that it's challenging to predict what the future may bring.
"I agree, building the road first might be the best way to go," he told Pollack. "But I would be curious to know, if market conditions allow, what would you be doing first?"

Black Dragon rose?
Someone is selling seeds for this rose on e-by...I know they won't come true from seed...but does anyone know what the real name of this rose is and where I can get it? Thanks, Donna
Here is a link that might be useful: black dragon rose
That looks a lot like Hocus Pocus, which is an unstable striped sport of Black Beauty. A few vendors used to carry it, but I don't know of anyone who does now.
Here is a link that might be useful: Hocus Pocus
It could also be a photo of the miniflora Memphis Music, which is sold by Two Sisters Roses.
Here is a link that might be useful: Memphis Music
As Jeri said plus there is no such rose as Black Dragon.
Only species roses bloom true from seed and there are not that many species roses including no black dragon. This person is collecting seeds from various roses and selling them as that variety. If he really knew what he was talking about, he'd know that most roses don't grow true from seed.
Even though more expensive, you'd be better off ordering Memphis Music from Two sisters. At least you'd get something that looks somewhat like the rose pictured on that site. With the seeds, your chance would be about the same as my DNA matching your.
That person has a whole bunch of rose seeds shown on there, with all sorts of made up names. I wonder how many people are going to buy those seeds only to find out the roses aren't going to look anything like the pics. IF they can even get the seeds to grow.
Thank you all for the replies....I do know that the rose will not come true from seed,(as stated in my first posting)...I was looking for the real name of it...and thank you all...such a shame people are doing that on e-bay....I did see the seller's other rose seeds...I wonder if they truly do not know or are scammers...Donna
I checked eBay and was appalled to see that the seed seller was from Boise, Idaho, where I live. She/he is going to give us a bad name! I also noted that many of the roses were still under patent, so is selling their seeds even legal? The photos accompanying each auction had a canned look, like they were taken off some website or from a catalog. So does this seller even have all these roses, or is he getting the seeds from the same rose? Who knows? Diane
Yes it is legal to sell seeds from a patented rose, since the seeds wll not be the rose patented. Of course they know they are scamming people. Who else would post this photo?
Here is a link that might be useful: Blue Tides Rose Bush
I sent a nasty email to the seller and this is what I got back;
"I buy all my seeds from http://hardyplants.moonfruit.com. So i am pretty sure since they are through a wholesaler they are not faticious."
OMG! Did you take a look at that website Mike? They have all sorts of either dyed or Photoshopped blue roses, all sorts of made-up names and what appear to be a few camellias being passed off as roses! I notice there's no actual mailing address listed. They probably aren't even rose seeds that they are selling. What a rip-off!
Chances are good that this same seller runs both the moonfruit store and the e-bay store. There is no mailing address anywhere on that web site, just the toll free number.
It is such a shame in this day and age when we are losing our really good vendors in alarming numbers that the unscrupulous are popping up. Donna
well count me as a dummy I baught some of these seeds and have been carefully carring for what i thaught was rose seedlings!. I will hold out untill they get there true leaves but don't have much confidence in them. Will let everyone know what I get....crossing fingers.
in Texas
Do not buy these so called seeds, they are not roses. I purchased these as I was curious about them and would have loved if they were really what was pictured but unfortunatly Idk what these are. They look similar to rose seeds, they germinate like a rose would but when they are planted they do not come up anything like a rose, mine haven't bloomed yet but the foliage resembles shade primrose (not Missouri primrose. Save your money guys and buy from a well reputable seller not the EBAY sellers. Unfortunatly I gave positive feedback on these rose seeds before I planted them and saw the actual results
I purchased these also, learning about roses not being true to the parent if you do get them to grow. I did all the prep for roses, but as they came up, I soon realized they were not roses. They have hairy leaves, but I couldn't identify it. They just started flowering today. Blue star shaped flowers. The verdict is the seed I bought was borage.
This person is back up on E-bay selling seeds for this rose, although the website of the wholesale distributor (hardyplants.moonfruit.com) is gone. If there is anyone who bought this seed (and it didn't grow to be this flower) please report this seller to e-bay for fraud! If it wasn't for this website, I would have bought this! I've been looking for the rose Abracadabra forever, and this rose is the closest I had found.
AZ Raven -- Abracadabra is the same cultivar as Memphis Music and is easily available from Two Sisters Roses or Wells Midsouth Roses, both online vendors.
I know the breeder claims they are different roses, but I have grown them side by side for half a dozen years now, and THEY ARE THE SAME ROSE. (Someone got his seedlings mixed up with his cuttings, oh well).
The other possibility it that we will be selling the reverse sport of that rose, which is registered as Simsalabim, at the CCRS rare rose auction on November 13, which will also have an online option.
Here is a link that might be useful: MidSouth Roses
Oooh, I love the name 'Simsalabim' how cool! Can I change it slightly and use it in a story? Is there a policy on using rose names in written fiction? I think 'Lutea Banks' would make an awesome name...
Sorry to post off topic but I couldn't resist.
I Googled "Simsalabim" the other day and found a post which stated it was German for "Abracadabra", which makes sense.
Kordes introduced Frisco, a yellow florist HT in the late 80s. It sported to Black Beauty in 1999, kind of a dramatic mutation from bright yellow to deep red! Black Beauty sported to Hocus Pocus in 2000 which then mutated to Abracadabra in 2002. Take a look at Simsalabim. Isn't it precisely what you would expect as a partial reversion of either Abracadabra or Hocus Pocus back to Frisco? Based upon flower appearance and the fact Kordes introduced them all, combined with the German translation of Simsalabim, I strongly suspect it is a partial reversion toward Frisco. Being such unstable sports of the same rose, be aware it is totally possible for any of them to mutate or revert easily, without warning, as shown on several photos on HMF, so no matter which you buy, there is no guaranty what it's going to flower in your garden. Kim
Kathy - I cannot believe that you are making that strong of a statement on these being the same rose. Have you ever talked Verlie to get his take? I know we have discussed this over and over, but your above comment seems to be a statement of fact, and I am still waiting to hear from Mr. Wells on this.
Hugs & Kisses...
Frisco's form and color are beautiful, and that's enough to keep it in your garden, but number of flowers per measure of space under glass; number of months the plant is willing to flower without artificial heat or light; disease resistance, even under glass, is a prime consideration due to cost of materials, potential OSHA hazards, etc.; durability for handling/shipping and average life of flower can spell the demise of a "beautiful rose". The old Baccara was legendary for its form and color, so much so that even decades after its being discontinued as a florist variety, people still asked for it by name. It was so popular, Meilland reused the name several times. So, yes, it's pretty, but obviously not productive enough, at sufficiently efficient costs, to prevent it from being replaced by varieties which are sufficiently productive. Kim

One Green Thing: Put your hands together for some applause
By Jan Herbert
Rockford Park District
Whether you were "green" before the color was fashionable or whether you're just ready to find the "shade" that works best for you, here's information about doing just "one green thing."
Treehugger.com reports the sale of bottled water was to be illegal at the Grand Canyon National Park beginning in March.
Park officials are responding to the increasing problem of plastic litter around the canyon. Officials report bottles represent 20 percent of the park's waste and 30 percent of its recyclables.
To make certain park patrons are hydrated, there are 10 water stations to be installed. Oh, yes, and park visitors will be allowed to bring in reusable bottles to fill at the stations. Can I hear some applause for this wisdom, please!
The melting of plastic to create bottles takes a tremendous use of energy, and some of it can never be used again. Plastic is made from oil, and sometimes from corn. Either way, when plastic is made and then thrown away, we lose. It is a "double loss" when you consider that as plastic degrades, it releases methane. If the landfill it is in is not "collecting" the methane to use for fuel, it goes into our atmosphere.
Regarding plastic:
• a 1-liter bottle of water takes 26 bottles of water to produce the bottle (according to thedailygreen.com).
• 12,000,000 BARRELS OF OIL were used to make the 88.5 billion plastic bags consumed in the United States in 2010 (also according to thedailygreen.com).
Think about it … and then think about it again. We are an intelligent people, should we not be able to solve this challenge? Recycling helps, but so does avoiding the purchase in the first place. And definitely remember to take your own water bottle when you visit Grand Canyon National Park, because there won't be any bottled water for sale.
For more information, e-mail Jan Herbert at email@example.com.

My MacBook is frozen and it will not shut down. What's wrong?
My macbook is frozen for two days now and I can't turn it off. I have tried the power button, with command control and power with no result etc. I can move the mouse but I can not do anything when I try to give a command. When I push the power button the screen goes black and when I turn it on again it turns at the same screen. It looks like it goes to sleep and wakes up on the same screen. Any suggestion?
P.S I havent tried to take out the battery because I'm scared maybe something worse will happen.

Accepted Answer
Start by resetting your PRAM and SMC. For instructions on how to do that click here and click here. If that doesn't resolve your problem pull your RAM out of their slots and reseat them, then do the resets again. Please let us know the results of these things.
Yeah I would like to do that but first I have to shut down the system. It is still frozen after have tried everything, I think.
He's not able to clear the hang so this won't help.
Thanks for the down vote whoever and for what? Try unplugging the magsafe, first. The battery will eventually run out of power and the system will shut down. For some reason it never occurred to me that I would need to tell someone to unplug their computer if it won't power down.
Don't panic yet!
Did you press and hold the power button for a good minute? That should power down your system.
It sounds like you have an app or the OS in a locked state and the only way to to get out of this is to completely power down the system and restart.
Things you should do afterwards is to check any documents you may have had open at the time ti see if they are OK.
You may want to run a virus program and a HD health check using Apple's Disk Utility program using your OS DVD to boot you system. If you can I would also defrag the HD.
If it happens again you may want to check the apps and any OS add-ons that are running at the time the system freezes up make sure you've got the latest and updated the OS.
Yes I did to hold the power button and turns off(looks like go on sleep) and when it turns on again it just puts the screen at the same point frozen.
Try again holding the power button down longer. Sounds like you weren't able to get the system to do a power shutdown and go into a cold reboot only go in and out of sleep mode. With the built in Batt this is the only way (other than opening up the system to pull the battery power connector off the logic bd)
I try to push the power button for long time but not luck. Just turn back at the same frozen screen.
Dedej - It's time to pull the plug! You'll need to open the system to pull the battery connector. Haven't seen one so locked up like this, you may have other problems with the logic bd. For now try this and after a few minutes reconnect the batteries and see if it is able to restart. If your not comfortable doing this and you have an Apple store nearby see if they can reset the system for you.
They should not remove the battery with it powered on, that is very bad advice and risks damaging the battery and components on the motherboard.
this happened to me except the the mouse wasn't moving at all. so just hold the power button for a minute or two, or until it turns off. once you have turned it back on hold shift until the apple sign shows up, safe booting. hope this helps
My MacBook froze and didn't work nothing worked while I was using iMovie, so I held the shut down button for like, a minute and restarted it, pretty slow though, should start working
Your advice really helped me! Thanks so much!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! It's been frozen and ticking for an hour! It was kinda funny though - I was watching Tosh.0 w/ the Monster Satan Lady and as soon as Tosh drank the Tea Bag ice tea my mac froze and started ticking. I'm agnostic but !&&*....
Thank you!! Holding the power button awhile worked for me.

Neighbor: Remove old sign, 'end the insanity'
Neighbor: Remove old sign, 'end the insanity'
An annoyed neighbor desperate to end sign "insanity" in Readville helped convince a local law office to take down its giant "Martin J. Walsh for Mayor" placard yesterday.
What frustrated the neighbor wasn't the can't-miss billboard — it was the decorations that adorned the campaign ad on the holidays.
The sign was covered yesterday with paper bunnies, paper eggs, a ribbon of tinsel tacked on all corners and a smaller Easter-themed shoutout to the mayor that read, in part: "Happy Easter Mr. Mayor."

Closet versus cupboards for box storage
Hi all,
I hope you can lend me your organizational skills to help me finalize the plans for finishing our basement. I am an elementary teacher, so I have many banker boxes full of teaching games, activities, etc (perhaps 50 boxes). We are also a family of 6 so we have the general household storage needs too (Christmas decorations, off seaon stuff, etc). I need to plan for storing these things in our basement. We had initially thought to make a few long reach in closets for storage around the perimeter of our rec room. I am now wondering if cupboards would be better.
My question is should I do low end cupboards (e.g. thermafoil) around the room, or drywalled closets with doors and shelves inside? I know the cupboards will look better than a series of closet doors, but will cost more. The cupboards can also wrap around the windows which is a bonus. I will not be buying high end custom cupboards. What depth of closet or cupboards would be best? I think I am limited to 24 inches of depth for cupboards short of going custom, but we seem to have space for 30 inches of depth if we do closets. The room will not accommodate a walk in storage area, without losing the ping pong table and blocking the windows. There is one walk in closet in another part of the basement to handle any bulkier storage needs. Any suggestions?
Below is the plan of my basement which if you click on you will be taken to my photobucket to see the plan in a larger scale. There is also an inspiration picture of a wrap around set of cupboards (likely higher end cupboards than we are considering).

Hi mustangs,
Thanks for your input. Good point about not wanting too deep storage for the boxes. After writing, my post I felt we should do the west wall in cupboards, including wrapping around a few feet to the south wall, so we can keep that window mainly in view. These cupboards should do well for the teaching stuff. Some of my teaching supplies are in deeper Rubbermaid containers, which seem to just fit inside 24 inches. Those that are in bankers boxes could potentially be switched over to Rubbermaid containers as the cardboard has seen better days.
However, I think a closet would be cheaper and more versatile on the south wall. We may do a bit deeper than 24 for flexibility too. Some of our other storage is deeper than 24 inches.
My biggest question with the combo plan, would be what kind of door should we use on the closet. We are leaning towards sliding doors, but I know they only allow half the contents to be seen.
Does that sound like a reasonable plan? I am off to HD to see if they can quote me on basic cupboards for the west wall and the wrap around. Clearer pricing will help with my decision as well.
For our storage, we used adjustable shelf brackets which are hung on wall-mounted strips. Elfa and ClosetMaid make similar systems although those are not the ones we used. We then put ventilated bifold doors in front of the shelves. I like using the brackets and shelves because they give a long run of continuous shelving which allows for differently sized objects to be stored. The system is also adjustable to allow for different storage needs in the future. Our shelving is 24 inches deep, but the brackets come in different depths for different needs.
Thanks Julie for your comments. I hope I am correct in understanding that you did a 24 inch reach in closet with the vented bi-fold doors on the closet. In other words, the shelves were inside a framed closet correct?
I think you make a good point about the continuous run of shelving to allow for different sized objects to be stored. Do you find that 24 inches of depth was deep enough for all you wanted to store, or would you have been happier if it had been 30 inches?
