Revised IMF forecasts signal gloom on global economic outlookLow oil prices will not provide a sufficient updraught to dispel the clouds hanging over the world economy, the International Monetary Fund said on Tuesday.More >
In a sign of its increasing gloom about the medium term economic outlook, the IMF cut its world economic increase forecasts by 0.3 % points for both 2015 and 2016, despite believing cheaper oil represents a "shot in the arm".
Oxfam Study Finds Richest 1% Is Likely to Control Half of Global Wealth by 2016The richest 1 % are likely to control additional than half of the globe's total wealth by next year, the charity Oxfam reported in a study released on Monday. The warning about deepening world inequality comes just as the world's business elite prepare to meet this week at the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
The 80 wealthiest people in the world all own $1.9 trillion, the statement found, nearly the same all shared by the 3.5 billion people who occupy the bottom half of the world's gain scale. (Last year, it took 85 billionaires to equal that figure.) And the richest 1 % of the people, who number in the millions, control nearly half of the world's total wealth, a share that is as well increasing.
TAPI member countries' state gas companies establish joint company
The national gas companies of Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India have established a company that will be engaged in construction, owning and operation of the planned 1,800-kilometer Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India gas pipeline, ADB said on November 13.
"Establishment of the TAPI pipeline company is a key milestone in the development of the pipeline. It is a tangible sign of transformational cooperation part the parties that presages the enhanced energy security, business prospects, and in general peace and stability in the region promised by the pipeline," Klaus Gerhaeusser, Director General of ADB's Central and West Asia Department said.
Turkmenistan's Turkmengas National Concern, Afghan Gas Enterprise, Inter National Gas Systems (Private) Limited, and GAIL (India) Limited own equal shares of the company.More >

The World Bank fails to credit the intelligence of the world's poor2015/01/31At the same time as a statement by the world's most influential development agency provides evidence that a lot of of its staff are "biased" in their perceptions of the poor and their needs, one may expect eyebrows to be raised. At the same time as the president of that institution — the World Bank, no less — acknowledges the flaw and goes on to call for "measures to mitigate these biases, such as additional rigorously diagnosing the mindsets of the people we are trying to help", jaws should be dropping.
World Bank cuts forecast for growth2015/01/16The World Bank has cut its estimate for world increase, warning that the world economy remained overly reliant on the "single engine" of the US recovery.
The Bank said it expected lower oil prices to provide a boost to world activity. But it warned several headwinds would mitigate the result of the falling cost of crude. These include weak confidence part consumers and businesses and the inability of large central banks to cut interest rates below their record-low levels to boost inflation expectations.
New chief justice of Pakistan2014/01/05
At the same time as the new chief justice of Pakistan took oath of office on 12 December 2013 Pakistan completed an historic changeover during a year that saw the initial civilian government in 67 years complete its constitutionally mandated term. 2013 as well saw Pakistan get a new prime minister, president and chief of army staff. Perhaps no other country has experienced such a total change of its constitutional officers within a schedule year.

Angelina Backlash, is it Justified?
Angelina seems to be unable to win these days. She supported her man at the Globes, headed to Vietnam for more charity work and then returned to the states to her new home. She was seen here picking up Maddox at his new school in New Orleans. However, no matter how normal Angelina tries to be, or how helpful she hopes she is to other countries, she will face bitter backlash for one reason or another. Ryan Seacrest got vocal about feeling snubbed at the Globes, and now the NY Times is taking a stab at what may be Angelina falling from grace. One thing is for sure, Angelina will always be in the headlines, whether it's for wearing blood around her neck or helping countries in need, so the real question is can't we all just get along?

Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 20 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by sarah415 Excellent washer I bought the washer and dryer for my small apartment and have them stacked. The washer does an excellent job and is very quiet. While some selections take longer the luxury of having a machine in the apartment makes it worth while. February 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by QQ22 Great machine I am going to be completely honest about the pros and cons as I see them. Please keep in mind that despite any negatives I would still purchase this washer in a heart beat. Just not from the same store...long story. I have both the washer and dryer. For the price I wish it would of come with the steam function or a few color options. But not a make it or break it for me. My set is stacked. At the end of the wash cycle it is slightly loud and wobbles. I have no idea if the delivery service didn't level them properly or if it's normal. This is the only stacked set I've owned. I'm in a condo so space was limited and these fit perfectly. The cost to run might as well be nil. As others have stated, the wash cycle takes a little longer than I am used to depending on the cycle. I got used to this rather quickly. I can't fit as much into the washer as I am used to with top loaders but it's only slightly less and still much more than I figured. So again, not a big deal, to me. My clothes come out 10 times cleaner. whites are whiter yada yada. I had a few friends warn me about their front loaders smelling. So I've run a clean cycle with bleach once a week. I also wipe down the door and seal after I use it and leave the door open to dry out. It has yet to develop a smell. My biggest and only real complaint is the seal catches lint or other debris after washes. February 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by kathy1215 Love this Washer Easy to use, uses less water than my old front loader, quiet. Easy on clothes - love the hand wash feature February 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by HFNYC Excellent washer! I bought this great laundry machine over a month ago. It's perfectly sized for apartment living and very quiet while in use. Although compact in size, it can both fit and well launder a good amount of items per cycle. My only issue is that the wash cycles- even the quick wash option, tend to take more time than I'm accustomed to. That said, this washer replaced a small top loading machine I had for several years whose laundry cycles took less time because of the increased agitation created by the washer drum. Overall, great machine. Highly recommend it. February 22, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jw very nice Good looking set have washer and dryer, cost was high but needed to have built in size. The cycles are a bit long but the clothes come out clean. Like the settings. January 29, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by ClothesHorse This product is great quality I LOVE my HE washer from LG. Actually, I have a matching dryer, and I love both of them. Trust me, the front loading washers are so much better than the top-loading ones, like the one I previously had. It runs quietly, and I've never had any problems with it. It has great features, but it is not overwhelming or complicated to use. It's user-friendly design allows for quick start. Anyway, the only negative I have is that I stacked my W/D to save space, and the washer vibrates a tad bit when it is spinning. It also "wobbles" inside, but I think that's what it's supposed to do. LOVE IT! January 10, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by nancy Easy to use Sometimes, there is a little water leakage, but most of time are OK. Overall, good. December 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Judy35 This washer is being used in our RV We installed this direct drive washer in our RV which is left all year on the same lot. The washer is so quiet. When the machine is on it's final spin we do feel a little vibration in the floor which I believe would be expected with any machine. When I set it on extra high spin we feel absolutely no vibration. I'm so satisfied with how clean it gets the clothes. Best of all is the amount of clothes that can be washed in one load. It has so much more capacity than the usual washing machine used in an RV. In case we ever take our RV on the road again we will reinsert the shipping bolts that we have saved. I highly recommended this machine to all my friends. December 17, 2014
This LG 24" compact washing machine has Large Capacity, a NeverRust stainless steel drum, and loads of other features to help make laundry less of a chore. The SenseClean System takes the guesswork out of doing laundry by automatically setting the water level and wash time based on the weight and the size of each load. With LoDecibel Quiet operation and a 10 year limited warranty on the powerful Direct Drive motor, this Energy Star certified washer by LG is washing done right.

It occurred to me with the new apoc changes that other builds besides cm/ww could see an advantage. I did a bit of testing and UberDeath also gained a nice boost. With only one 10 APoC source and one -5 arcane torrent item, you can almost continually stream arcane torrent, which you definitely could not do in 1.0.6. For me, that meant I could use my non-apoc Triumverate and go to town.
Tried it on a few bosses.
Ghom: 18 sec.
Azmo: 21 sec.
Belial: 58 sec.
To put that in perspective, Frostburn's Belial kill time was around 1 min 58 sec (with cm/ww) and my previous recorded kill time on him was around 1 min 23 sec (with cm/ww).
Edited by kiza#1883 on 7/16/2013 10:21 AM PDT
Try the build I came up with- it works with 10 APOC now too and I am using a Tri now as well. It's in my profile now. It's something for Archon people to run in groups and/or or high MPs and CMs can use it just the same.
I believe it was Shaggy who said that our main resource now is the attack turn.
wtf you're right, before i cant sustain arcane with only 10 apoc, ( i needed to drop trium for another apoc source)
Everyone dropping to 10 APOC now. Only need more if you are running multiple high spenders.
wow nice, guys sell me your 280 dmge apoc chant source now :D
10 apoc is trash doom. Massive slow down in power farming where you wormhole pack to pack dragging whites along and make barbs look slow. That said it's doable. I solo mp10 ubers this morning with it. They didnt move.
Edited by Aimless#1700 on 3/4/2013 7:12 AM PST
Well, this doesn't mean that we should sell our apoc force. It just means we have more options now. We can pick up black weapon like Rangrok or Yems and wear mempo and still get apoc from force or sc. .
or we can use Chanto will and wear mempo with triv or none-apoc foce
or we can wear SC and use black weapon and triv or none-apoc force.
Basically, we don't have to look all the same with same cookie cutter Chantodo will and force which were automatic previously.
and if still want to enjoy having luxury 20 apoc (Boozor) for smooth run, then that's also an option.
In the end, let's all try to look different now in 1.07. Ultimately, your dps will increase with having to look for only 10 apoc.
Edited by yodatoy#1838 on 3/4/2013 7:15 AM PST
Ghom: 23 sec.
Kiza, you are sick.
Posts: 283View profile
wouldnt it be funny if this undocumented change in APOC was a bug and they hotfix it next week
Yoda - We use will for ias and dps and apoc. A dagger that can compete with any of your wills there is like 12. Must be black must be ~1000 dps must have huge CD must have OS must have large IAS. The real option that opened up is what Kiza is already doing double int force and mempo. The most DPS setup you can get. SC + double int Force were equal to Mempo and apoc force not anymore.
I would like to see a recording of a <25 sec Ghom kill MP10 =)
Not that I don't believe you, I just want to see what kinda gear it takes and what exact spec you're running
I'll hold on to my Chant's set for now. I dropped to 18 APoC from 20, but I can't see myself go any lower. I do have a 294 avg. Chant's Force anyway, so I would still have to pay a lot to get another 100int/vit with same avg..
Drizz, you party pooper! >_<
Niko, when I get home I can upload the video. Friend me in game and I can give you gear specs.
I switched to a Triumvirate that gives me more DPS and EHP than the Tal's or Oculus I had before, I don't use Teleport.
Frost Hydra lasts almost 3x standard Blizzard duration and costs 5 AP less than Snowbound. No point in squandering AP or attack turns on Blizzard when I can 5-stack LL, drop Frost Hydra, then 5 stack LL and hit Disintegrate.
Edited by DoctorDoom#1357 on 3/4/2013 9:20 AM PST
Here's the Ghom video.
I'm EU, so I'd rather have you show the specs in the vid.
I'm going to keep my gear a super seekret.

Hooray for build diversity!
I'm happy for you.
Seriously, Kiza, how do you do it?
After GC + Buffed up, I'm at:
911 Resist
387k DPS
3.8k Armor
2.74 aps / 58% CC / 18 APoC
I can't even tank the Ghom's gasses, lol.. Using this build:
Spamming DS as frequently as possible, and the gas stil gets to me.. Are you using a Lifesteal weapon? Do you have an SoJ and the extra damage makes Blood Magic viable? What is it :P?
Can't really use an SoJ because I have 2 set rings..

Lining a throw
Could anyone recommend a fabric to be used for lining a throw made from a chinelle tapestry type of upholstery fabric. I bought this remnant thinking pillows but it was quite large and would be perfect for a throw. When I say upholstery fabric, it isn't really that heavy in weight but it has texture. It is a paisley design in golds, olive and rust colors...perfect for my soon to be finished new basement. I think it will be mainly decorative although if need be, will be used for warmth. I did another one awhile back and lined it with flannel backed satin (or is it satin backed flannel)coat lining but I found that it was quite heavy and not very warm. I edged it with cording and attached tassels to the corners. (copied one I saw at Ethan Allen) This may account for the weight. It keeps sliding off your lap. So I am looking for an alternative. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Kathie
Kathie, there are many light wt fleeces that would be great, cozy and slip-proof. In this case, I would cut the fleese smaller than the paisly, and topstitch around the perimeter. You might want to put some tacking stitches every 12-18" thru both layers to stablize.Another choice is a dark cotton flannel.
Decades ago, I lined a Vogue Dior coat with flannel backed satin and was devastated at its weakness. I had to decorative tape the cuff and hem areas after two years. It was not particularly warm, either...but then that was in Chicao!
Your fabric sounds lush! I am nuts for paisley.

Thompson, Pak share Kraft Nabisco lead
RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. (AP) — Se Ri Pak was wrapping up her post-round interview when Lexi Thompson's 8-under 64 was posted on a monitor in the media center.
Pak mentioned Thompson's ball-striking ability, then cut to the chase.
"Probably her putting is really hot, too," Pak said.
It was, and the bogey-free 64 left Thompson tied with Pak at 7 under heading into the weekend in the Kraft Nabisco Championship.
"I worked extremely hard in the offseason on my short game and just trying to get my game a lot more consistent," said the 19-year-old Thompson, already a three-time winner on the LPGA Tour.
She had only 25 putts at Mission Hills after taking 35 in a first-round 73.
"I just had a little bit of speed issues yesterday," Thompson said. "I didn't really commit to my lines and I came up short a lot. I just went out today and picked my line and sped up my tempo a little bit and went up to it and said, 'I'm going to knock it in.'"
After experimenting with a stance close to the ball to get her eyes more over the putting line, she's standing farther away in a more natural position.
"Even as a little kid I stood far away from the ball and took the putter inside. I just went right back to that," Thompson said. "I moved farther away and just take one look at the hole and just knock it in. Hopefully."
Pak birdied the final hole for a 70. The 36-year-old South Korean player won the last of her five major titles in 2006 and has 25 LPGA Tour victories.
"Everything has just been really solid," Pak said. "I kept it fairways, greens, always the goal every hole. I had a lot of opportunities, but putting is not as good as yesterday. Still, just really smooth, solid round. I'm really happy about the way I finished."
Michelle Wie was a stroke back after a 71.
"I'm really excited," Wie said. "It's fun being near the top of the leaderboard. But try not to look forward too much. It's a long way 'til Sunday."
Thompson birdied eight of the last 13 holes after opening with five pars.
"I was just trying to stay in the moment and focus on each shot, not really think about what I was shooting," Thompson said. "I had the same confidence over every shot, just committing to my line and just being confident."
She made a 20-foot birdie putt from the fringe on the par-3 17th — her eighth hole — and two-putted for birdie after reaching the par-5 18th in two.
Thompson holed a breaking 30-foot birdie putt on the par-4 first, made a 4-footer on the par-4 third and ran in a 20-foot putt on the par-4 fourth after slashing out from under a tree in the left rough. She added an 8-foot birdie putt on the par-4 seventh and closed with a 10-footer on the par-5 ninth after hitting into the greenside bunker in two.

LOOKING for: Canning beef stew
I would love to have a recipe for canned beef stew, has anyone got a good one, that they can give me. Thanks, mandie6091
mandie, I have better luck canning the beef and the vegetables separately. By the time the beef has processed long enough, the vegetables are too soft.
I just canned mixed vegetables cut into stew sized chunks as per the Ball Blue Book for time. The beef I canned using KatieC's Beef Burgundy recipe, it was delicious with bacon and mushrooms, yummy.
Beef Burgundy for Canning
Recipe By :Katie, November 2002
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories :
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 pounds cubed beef chuck roasts -- (or use stew meat)
2 large onions -- coarsely chopped
10 slices bacon -- diced, cooked and drained
1 whole garlic bulb -- peeled and thinly sliced
3 cups beef broth
3 cups Burgundy wine
1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced -- or 2 cans mushroom stems and pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon thyme
These measurements are approximate. You need enough liquids to cover beef and veggies.
Brown the beef cubes and set aside in a large stockpot. Brown onions and garlic and add to beef. Cook and drain bacon and add to beef. Stir in remaining ingredients and simmer about an hour.
Pour into hot, clean jars, leaving 1" headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe rims and adjust two piece lids.
Process pints for 60 minutes and quarts for 75 minutes. Dial gauge canners: use 11 lbs at 0-2000 ft., 12 lbs. at 2001-4000 ft., 13 lbs. at 4001-6000 ft., and 14 lbs. over 6000 ft.
Weighted gauge canners: use 10 lb. weight at 0-1000 ft., and 15 lb. weight over 1000 ft.
To serve: heat and thicken with cornstarch or a roux. Serve over rice or noodles. Would also make a good stew.
"5 quarts"
When I want stew I just open a jar of beef, drain the broth and thicken it into gravy, then add the beef and a jar of the vegetables (after draining them). Heat until warmed through and serve with homemade bread or biscuits.
Happy canning!

Sims appeared on popular game show earlier this month

by Ariana Cherry
Arthur/Sullivan Reporter
Not only does knowledge equal power, but it also can help you earn some extra money for your bank account. That is what Sullivan native and recent law school graduate Rachael Sims found out after competing on the famous ""Jeopardy!"!" game show.
"I won $21,500 in my first game, which was very exciting!" said Sims. "Unfortunately, I didn't win my second game, but I did get to earn $1,000 for my third place finish. Of course, all of these totals are before taxes!
While the show was aired March 6, it actually had been filmed in January. And the journey to participating on ""Jeopardy!"!" actually started online.
"Everyone who wants to appear as a contestant on "Jeopardy!" has to take an online test," said Sims. "The test is offered once per year and consists of 50 questions. You're given eight seconds to answer each question, and you don't have to phrase your answers in the form of a question. It's basically just a general knowledge test to see if you know enough about a variety of different categories to be competitive on the show. You don't get your results for the online test, but if you score high enough, you might be contacted for an interview." Read More
Bethany native takes over

The building at 115 W. Main St. and the business it contains has long been a fixture in the rural community of Bethany.
Situated just west of Scott State Bank headquarters, it is a conspicuous storefront in the small downtown. Emblazoned with large blue lettering, the front window is easily recognizable to passing motorists.
Many readers are undoubtedly personally familiar with Muzzy's Hometown Heating and Cooling of Bethany, a business that has a pedigree spanning six decades. In the early 1960s the location was known as Crowder's Hardware Store, at which time Danny Coleman opened a plumbing/heating business from the back office. Shortly thereafter, he purchased the whole store from Crowder, running the two businesses out of the same building. Read More

Today, library users in Illinois enjoy of the best public libraries in the nation and a statewide commitment to resource sharing and library technology that is the envy of the nation. It wasn't always that way.
This March marks the anniversary of the signing of the Public Library Act by then-Governor John M. Palmer in 1872. The law provided for the tax-supported, free-usage public libraries that Illinoisans know today.
Before then, Illinois residents had no access to free reading, and had to join private organizations for library material. Social libraries date to 1818 with the founding of such organizations in Albion and Edwardsville. A subscription library was founded in Belleville in 1821, and by 1872, there were an estimated forty such libraries across the state. Read More

Few federal government programs today are viewed as efficient and popular, with long-lasting results. The Civilian Conservation Corps, the enormously successful Depression-era program of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, was all that and more.
The CCC put unemployed, impoverished young men to work in forestry, soil conservation, drainage, and public parkland. Known for its quality of work, the imprint of the CCC remains in parks, forests, and farmlands today.
Decatur was home to three CCC camps, with a fourth near Macon. Other area communities with CCC camps include Shelbyville, Charleston, and Tuscola. Read More

Will purchase digital microscope for student use
by Joash Tiarks
Bethany Reporter
The Illinois Agriculture In The Classroom(IAITC) program constantly seeks teachers who inspire their students, and the program is able to accomplish this by partnering with local teachers, specifically in the area of agriculture. Recently it found a partner in Okaw Valley ag teacher Aspen Cassady.
Each year, under the oversight of the Illinois Farm Bureau, the IAITC raises funds through the Illinois Agriculture Association(IAA), making more than $700,000 available to the teachers and classrooms throughout the entire state "to fund education, research, and charitable activities that benefit Illinois farm families and agriculture," according the the IAA website. The IAA counts the Illinois Beef Association, Illinois Corn Growers, Illinois Pork Producers, Illinois Soybean Association, and the University of Illinois Extension among its large group of generous contributors.

In eighth year, group just as strong as ever
by Ariana Cherry
Arthur/Sullivan Reporter
Not only can a good storyline reside within the pages of a book but so can the opportunity for a good conversation. Sullivan middle school student, Sarah DeLong, wanted to get the conversation started when she was inspired by the Mattoon reading group, Read Across Mattoon. She had come across a book that the group had been reading while at Common Grounds. DeLong had asked language arts teacher Rikki Ray about possibly starting something similar in Sullivan. "How could I turn her down?" replied Ray. After writing a grant to the Sullivan Community Education Foundation, One Book One Sullivan was formed in 2007. Read More

Brown's Mad Gasser Tale to be presented Saturday in Sullivan
by Ariana Cherry
Sullivan/Arthur Reporter
WWII era Mattoon, Illinois, is descending into madness. The small town's fears of an enemy within, stalking them like prey, are threatening to become a reality and consume the town. As the hysteria rises, the people of Mattoon are tested in ways that will change their lives and their idyllic small town forever. And for one family, everything hangs in the balance."
That is the brief summary of Jason Brown's latest book, "Prowler: The Mad Gasser of Mattoon," a novel that covers the two week long hysteria surrounding the famous 1940's incident.
In 1944, it was noted that a bizarre figure dressed in black wreaked havoc in Mattoon by spraying an unidentified paralyzing gas into the windows of unsuspecting residents. The attacker vanished without anyone ever seeing him, and the case stumped not only the residents but the local law enforcement. Social scientists ended up calling the whole situation a mass hysteria, which has now become the inspiration for Brown. Read More

Mirror Images group writes own screenplay and performs
by Ariana Cherry
Arthur/Sullivan Reporter
Students in Sullivan High School's prevention theater group, "Mirror Images," literally got to see their hard work come alive on stage during last Friday's original production of "What Can't be Said."
The magic not only radiated from the portrayal of true-to-life characters from the students, but it also reached out to the hearts of the audience, loud and clear. The production's message reached about 400 people, who were in attendance to see the show.
"I have had several people stop me this weekend to tell me how much they loved the play and how well written it was. Some people also have told me that they cried because certain characters were like people they knew or were like they were in high school. It truly touched a chord with people," said Becky Lawson, Mirror Images adviser and SHS English Teacher. Read More

Two promotions and a new hire come to department
by Ariana Cherry
Arthur/Sullivan Reporter
There's a new sheriff in town…as well as a new second in command and deputy.
On December 1, Brandon Beckwith became the newest Moultrie County deputy after Chris Sims was elected as the Moultrie County Sheriff.
When previous Moultrie County Sheriff Jeff Thomas retired after 12 years of service (41 total in the department), Sims saw this as an opportunity to step up to serve the citizens of the county. After already serving as chief-deputy since 1994, he already had some ideas in mind of how he would like to assist the citizens and office.
"I had some authority as deputy, but the sheriff is ultimately responsible. I look forward to having the authority to make positive changes, empower employees to do a better job with customer relations and improve productivity," said Sims. Read More

'Short' still stocks inventory at Atchison
by Joash Tiarks
Reporting in Sullivan
Of the many employees Dick Atchison has working for him at Atchison Electric, one stands out far above the rest, and it is not because of his height. In fact, Paul Craig's nickname is 'Short' and has been for as long as he can remember, and that memory stretches back to the 1920's.
"I don't know nothin', but I got two hands," Short said as he approached Dick back in 1978. Having worked for the city electric department for the previous 10 years, he was ready for a change, and Dick gave him that opportunity. Thirty-seven years on he is still going strong and, having recently celebrated his 90th birthday, still works 8.5 hours a day four days a week with no plans to stop anytime soon.
"I just love what I do," he declared.
Born in 1924, Short has lived in the Sullivan area for as long as he can remember, growing up in a tenant house on a farm about a mile from town. He and his younger sister are now the only ones left of nine siblings, four brothers and three sisters having already passed away, all older than he. Read More

Too cute not to share
My seven-year-old was reading about owls out loud, including what they eat. My four-year-old said to me, "So if an owl saw a human it would be like, [shrugs shoulders] 'Umm. Nah.'"
Where does she come up with this stuff?

Being deflated by a four-year-old
Getting dressed in the morning in my home doesn't always happen. The rule is, you must be dressed by lunch, and if the kids are okay with a late lunch then….
Not being a great role model in this regard–I mean, why bother taking off the clothes you'll just be putting back on in a few hours, am I right?–I tried one day to be better.
"Let's see who can get dressed first!" I called to my girls enthusiastically.
"I'm halfway there!" I soon announced from my room.
"One more arm hole to go!"
Then, triumphantly, I stood in their bedroom doorway, arms raised, announcing, "I win!"
My half-dressed youngest said disdainfully, Read the rest of this entry
Where can I find a sign that says "Read the sign"?
I saw them heading up my driveway, a mother and her daughter, most likely. They didn't carry chocolate or cookies, they carried paper, pamphlets of some sort. As any rational adult would do in this situation, I hid. Unfortunately, the windows along my escape route had sheer curtains, so my best recourse was hiding behind the door, down low because of the glass near the top.
Not my finest moment.
Then my seven-year-old came along. Read the rest of this entry
Have we met?
We had friends over for a game night recently. One of our guests was Phil. He relayed a story of having met the San Diego Chargers' quarterback Philip Rivers… for the second time. You see, he had met this preeminently famous San Diegan once before and, on the second meeting, forgot. his. name. Mind you, this friend's name is Phil. The quarterback's name is Phil-ip. You'd think that would be memorable to a Phil, right? But not only, on his second meeting, did he ASK PHILIP RIVERS HIS NAME!!!!! But then he asked, Read the rest of this entry
Friday Funnies: Three Brothers Re-Create Old Photos For Mom

When I ran across this article on ABC News and found myself fully laughing out loud, I new it would be perfect to share with all of you for this weeks Friday Funnies! News to me…I guess it is now a popular trend for grown-up children to re-create childhood photos to make funny calendars for their parents. This might be the best execution of this idea that I have seen! I won't lie….it's got my wheels turning in my head for my Lil Bro and I to take this idea on. I absolutely love it! HAHAHAHA!!!! :D
I wish I could take credit for this genius remark
Last Friday I received a package in the mail from the publisher of the book I co-authored, 101 Tips for a Happier Marriage. It was two copies of the book but with a completely different look. Bewildered, I read the accompanying letter and discovered that Pauline Publications India was republishing our book!
I was floored! I immediately picked up my phone to call Jennifer, my co-author. As I was about to push the button for her number, she called me. I answered, "I was just dialing your number!" (How long before that statement makes no sense any more?)
"Did you get your mail today?" she asked.
"That's what I was going to say to you!"
We did our own respective happy dances. Mine involved jumping on various pieces of furniture. I would imagine her response was more sedate and stately. (Fine, I didn't jump on any furniture. I probably did a bit of hopping up and down, though.) We could hardly believe it. We'd gone international!

So here's what happened. I was using some of the mod tools yesterday and I accidentally left you on Status. You were a focal point in our patrolling the forums and we were actively keeping an eye on you. This is what happens when you rock the boat my friend. You've been a good user here for many years. You know the rules, you've been warned before. In the future, if you can't say anything good in a rival forum then say nothing. Same goes for reporting comments that aren't worth a bother. The one you reported was very tame, and in their forum. When you get to this point in the future, just take a deep breath and walk away

Ah the beauty of mating on the back rank! Nice one.
Disgruntled_Sheep you cant get this mate, i guess you rely on putting queen right beside the black king right? well, you hoped the ladder eats it whereas KING will take it and no one protects the queen
But the Knight prevents the King from capturing the Queen.
even if this is faster, i would play smothered just because it rocks :D
Yeah, smothered mate looking setup
Na6, Ka8, Qb8+ Rxb8, Nc7# is a way cooler mate.
seriously, why does queen c7 not work? been looking at it for couple minutes now, don't get it.
Excellent... Fifty points for Gryffindor!!
Lol...I think 95% of us thought this was smothered mate.
very nice!
Good exercise in knight and queen combination.
your solution is not good.
The good one is :
Qd6 Ka8
Nc7 Kb8
Na6 Ka8
Qb8 Rxb8
this solution is good but there is a better one:
Qd6+ Ka8 - Nc7+ Kb8 - Na6++ Ka8 - Qb8+ Rxb8 - Nc7
Soyez s\'il vous plait pertinant, efficace et gentil !
There is also 3.Na6++ Ka8 4.Qb8+ Rb8 5.Nc7#, isn t it?
1. Qd6+, Ka8 2. Nc7+, Kb8 3. Na6++, Ka8 4. Qb8+, Rxb8 5. Nc7# is yes, definitely much more elegant. I cater to the idea that serious chess is a clash of wills and egos, and the cold-blooded ruthlessness with a forced smother mate in 5, with the opponent absolutely helpless, is much more in keeping with the spirit.
What's wrong with using smothered mate in 5? So it takes one move longer, so what? How is that incorrect? Someone explain that to me, I think it's absurd.
Why people are so keen to judge others?

'Big Bang Theory's' Kunal Nayyar, Kaley Cuoco on Raj's Big Moment
THR was on the set for the sixth-season finale, which featured one of the CBS comedy's biggest watershed moments to date.
[Warning: This story contains spoilers from the sixth-season finale of The Big Bang Theory.]
Who ever thought heartbreak would feel so good. And for The Big Bang Theory's Rajesh Koothrappali, there may be no better truth.
During Thursday's emotional season six finale, the CBS comedy boldly went where it has never gone before: Kunal Nayyar's loveable but lovelorn Raj overcame his selective muteness and spoke to Penny (Kaley Cuoco) without the assistance of alcohol.
Of course to get there, Raj had to have his heart completely broken after equally socially awkward Lucy (Kate Micucci) broke things off with him, feeling overwhelmed with just how far he'd pushed her out of her comfort zone.
PHOTOS: 'The Big Bang Theory's' Nerdiest Guest Stars
"It's really wonderful because after playing this character for six years, you see him slowly let his guard down," Nayyar told The Hollywood Reporter during a visit to the set for the finale. "In sitcoms, you can sometimes get stuck in two-dimensional characters or one trick ponies. This has been really wonderful because this season, we get to see Raj really let go of his armor and evolve as a human being and be vulnerable -- which is rare for him."
For Cuoco, whose Penny had the pleasure of being the one to console Raj after dropping Leonard (Johnny Galecki) off at the airport, the moment was a great way to end the season.
"In the first season, when Raj actually starts talking when Penny is giving him alcohol, Penny says, 'You're talking to me,' and I say the same thing now but it's completely flipped," Cuoco says. "It's interesting how things have changed and it's incredible to think what this show has done over these past few years; it's amazing."
The progression marks the latest in a season filled with watershed moments that has included Penny declaring her love for Leonard, Amy and Sheldon having "the talk" and more.
PHOTOS: Behind the Scenes: 'The Big Bang Theory'
"All of these characters, as a function of getting older on the show, will continue to evolve, that's just the reality of the situation," Nayyar says. "They can't be in their late 20s their whole lives; now they're getting married and they want to have children. All of these characters -- including Raj -- as the years go on will try to evolve as much as they can."
Adds showrunner Steve Molaro: "We're ready to go deeper and push and move forward telling stories where things happen to these characters and things matter more. I'm really proud of season six; it's been really satisfying and fun to see how we've been able to go deeper and push these characters."

Starting my 2015 season prep a little early.
Picked up a new Cam seal and a Vtec Solenoid Gasket to fix a couple of oil leaks my engine was having. Things were going smooth until I was replacing my cam cover haha. Snapped a 12mm bolt trying to torque it correctly, gonna take the car into the shop on Tuesday to get it fixed. Oh well, hopefully my oil leaks are done haha.
I made a video too!
Before I started filming, I wasn't aware that my camera has a 4gb video file limit, so this is only 12 minutes condensed into 1 minute. I'll be sure to stay on top of this next time I make a wrenching video.

Why? The ongoing drought in the Midwest has created a shortage of feed, raising expenses for ranchers and forcing some to cull their herds.

Castle - solution
You can put one foot-bridge over one corner (thus a triangle is created). Then from the middle of this foot-bridge lay another foot-bridge to the edge (corner) of the castle. You can make a few easy equations confirming that this is enough.
going of what the soultion claims... does he mean 1 ft, or 1M?
or, does he say 1 ft to imply 1/3 M?
thats why i started saying 'unit length' as opposed to M or ft

figgery pokery in downspouts
Do you have unproductive downspouts on a large building? Are you allowing the metal rooftop to collect dew all night and then run down the spouts for nothing? Are you failing to use this profitable source of irrigation?
Well, worry no more, for Figgery Pokery will solve this problem. Go to your nearest fig tree (dormant is nice, but I have done this in spring and had some take) and nab some of the watersprouts coming up from the roots. Be sure you get some root. Stick the rooted sprouts in water, and wait a day. Next day, bring your spade, bucket o'fig sprouts, and some old organic fabric (old sheets, shirts, all cotton, old wool sweaters are good too. Newspaper will work if it has been soaking with the figs). Poke a hole in the dirt at the end of the downspout. Gently put rooted end in. Put the fabric on top (or some of the wet newspaper) Cover with leaves, rocks, grass cuttings, or whatever so the fabric or newspaper does not show. Dump any extra water on top. Repeat with other downspouts until you run out of figs. Wait a few years, and if no one messes with them you'll have nice fig trees fruting. This works well around warehouses, and in industrial 'parks'. Someday a person will walk by there and be hungry and be glad of those figs. Yes, some places resent interference in their nonexistent landscaping, so don't make a fuss. Just plant.
I love your idea! Outside of the trespassing and malicious mischief, ofcourse. Call your project, "Random Acts of Propogation," RAP for an acronym. Every project needs an acronym. Ask participants to post their achivements on your comment stream, without the references to trespassing, etc. Participants can subit posts like, "I rapped five times in Texas and all is well!"
