NBC's American Odyssey attempts to woo viewers who have given up on the networks for cable but it misses its mark.
We open on a gathering of the Scrappers Club, four women around a kitchen table pasting things into scrapbooks. The moment we hear one of them talking, we're not too surprised to learn that her name is Blanche Gunderson. Her sister Marge, the trooper, must have been the ambitious one. Not that Blanche isn't, just that she's relentlessly nice.
So are most of the folks in the town of New Ulm, Minn., which is so cold in the winter that scrapping warms you up. (Old Ulm, I know you were wondering, is the burg on the Danube where Einstein was born.) To this frigid Minnesota outpost flies Lucy Hill, a high-powered exec from Miami, whose mission is to downsize the local food products plant more or less out of existence.
Lucy is the cute-as-a-button Renee Zellweger, so we know she's only kidding when she pretends to be a heartless (rhymes-with-witch) who hammers around on her stiletto heels and won't smile. That doesn't scare Blanche (Siobhan Fallon Hogan), Lucy's assistant, who invites her home for dinner ("We're only havin' meat loaf"). So uncannily does her accent resemble Marge in "Fargo" that I was trying to remember where I had heard it recently, doncha know?
The extra man at Blanche's table turns out to be Ted Mitchell (Harry Connick Jr.), the widowed dad of a 13-year-old girl, who Blanche obviously thinks would be a great match for Lucy. That Ted, the union guy at the plant Lucy plans to downsize, is perhaps not a perfect match never even occurs to Blanche, who like all Minnesotans and most Dakotans is just plain nice. I mean that. I've been to Fargo. You should go sometime.
Ted doesn't seem nice at first, but then, jeez, he's originally from out of town, y'know. Ted and Lucy get in such a fight at the table that they both stalk out, which means they miss out on Blanche's famous tapioca pudding. Glossary Rule: Whenever a recipe is much discussed in the first act, it will be tasted in the third.
So firmly do we believe Lucy is visiting relatives of the "Fargo" cast that it's a surprise to learn "New in Town" was actually filmed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, which here looks nothing like the glittering metropolis in Guy Maddin's masterpiece. New Ulm consists of some houses, a VFW hall with a Friday fish fry, the food plant and not a whole lot else, except snow. But the people are friendly, hard-working and proud of their plant; soon Lucy softens, begins to like them and reveals she was Renee Zellweger all along.
Because this is a rom-com with no ambition in the direction of originality, Lucy is single, and Ted is the only eligible unmarried man in the cast, so do the math. The only remaining question is whether Lucy can save the plant, if you consider that much of a question. Am I giving too much away? This is the kind of movie that gives itself away. I've used that line before.
The real question is, do you like this sort of rom-com? It's a fair example of its type, not good, but competent. The plant workers seem to function like the chorus in an opera, shutting down the line for Lucy's arias from a catwalk, and moving as a unit, with foreman Stu Kopenhafer (J.K. Simmons) always in the front. Simmons has grown a bushy beard and is wearing a fat suit (I hope), so you may not recognize him as Juno's dad. Let the bushy beard be a lesson: A bushy beard is the enemy of an actor's face unless he is playing Santa or attacking with a chain saw.
The only question remaining after "New in Town" is: How come there's never a movie where a small-town girl leaves the snarly, greedy, job-ladder-climbing people behind and moves to the big city, where she is embraced by friendly folks, fed meat loaf and tapioca, and fixed up with Harry Connick Jr.?

Cutting back Cantaloupe vines
I've got a Cantaloupe plant that has one (1) vine with fruit. They're about 3-4 weeks from harvesting. Can I cut back/off the vines that are taking up a tremendous amount of space but producing nothing? If so, where is the best place to cut the vine off?
I won't remove anything from vines with fruit unless there is lots of vine and little fruit. Often cantaloupe overset and fruit quality suffers. Obviously if a plant has no fruit, it can be cut back or removed. When they get intertwined it's hard to tell what fruit goes with what plant.
Thank you fruitnut & ltilton. I appreciate the quick responses. I hope I'm using the correct nomenclature when I say vine because I don't understand how a 'vine' is nourishing fruit that is on another 'vine'. Should I be stating "branches" instead? As you can tell, I'm new to this.
Sometimes people call a melon plant a vine. But vine would be more correct as a name for one of the runners on a plant. The vines on one plant don't nourish fruit on another plant.
Any plant without fruit can be removed entirely or some of it's runners can be removed. But where you are there is still time to possibly set more fruit
If one runner/vine on a plant has fruit and another runner/vine on the same plant doesn't have fruit, both runners will feed the fruit. So keep all runners on any plant with fruit unless you are really cramped for space.
Thank you so much, fruitnut. Runner it is.
I have a watermelon and a cantaloupe in a 3' x 6' bed with the house as one boundary and the lawn as another. They are 3' apart and both on a single trellis that is 7' x 7'. The entire trellis is taken up and would like to make more room for the watermelon. As I said, the cantaloupe only has one runner with fruit and the other runners are making undersized male and few female flowers. If removing a runner would jeopardize the existing fruit on another, then case closed.

Help Me Plan Rough-in for New Miele Washer Dryer
I am remodeling my bathroom and a new Miele stacked W/D will go into the corner of an intersection of 2 load bearing walls. This is on the main floor over an unfinished basement with access to the joist. I want to provide a stable environment for the set.
I am planning to build a 2 layer plywood platform with "mass loaded vinyl" sandwiched in between. This was suggested by a member on the bathroom forum. He suggested to run a drain through this platform with a tray on top of the plywood platform to protect the living area from potential flooding. I can do this easy enough. I imagine this would raise the set about 2", at the most, from the floor level.
I found a appliance flood tray that is folded into place and is the perfect size of 24x24"
One would drill a hole in the pan and hook the emergency flood drain through this hole. I would have it run to a location and terminate several inches above a basement floor drain. This way I won't need a P trap that could potentially dry out, and allow sewer gases to enter the house.
I would like a turn off valve to manage my water supply to the washer. I do not want a flood if the water hoses should break. I have purchased, for this future install, a set of "Floodchek" hoses. And I would like to have a box with an on/off valve to the hot/cold water. I have seen Symmons valves and that looks great. It has an area for the waste water to drain as well.
I plan to have access to the shut off valve behind some shelving that will be to the right of the stacked W/D. I plan to have the shelving area easily dismantled to access the utilities to the W/D. I also plan to run my dryer vent out this area to the right, so I can access it for cleaning. I want all my supply lines, electrical, and venting to the right of the stack and located in the back of my planned shelving area.
Questions include:
1) should I have my shut off valve outfitted with one of those systems that automatically turn off the valves if there is a sensed leak?
2) do people usually just manually turn off and on the valve to the water hoses as needed when they do laundry? I have never done this in all my years, but I am seeing some wisdom in this precaution. Especially when the W/D is in the living area of the house, as this W/D will now be located.
3) has anyone used these special strong hoses called "Floodchek" for their hot/cold intakes?
4) do you recommend a specific dryer venting system. I was thinking of getting a metal wall box that the 4" duct can fit through. I have smooth 4" ducting in the joist space already to go for the dryer. The wall this set will be backed into will be a 6" stud wall. My plan will be dropping the dryer ducting down to the joist space below the bathroom and out to the out side. This is in an unfinished basement and easily accessible. I believe the total run will be 8.5' horizontal + 4' vertical+ 45 degree turns x 2.
With all this information, is there something I am missing? Or is there recommendations for something different? Should I post this in another forum?
Thanks very much if you've gotten this far in this post ;) and I hope to get your feedback :)
A floor plan would be worth a thousand words.
Install an easily accessible manual shut-off valve such as this (see link below).
Here is a link that might be useful:
I'm drawn to the Miele Washer & Dryer but my husband is skeptical. Why did you decide on them?
1) Only use a water flow termination shut off valve if you don't turn off your water supply to the washer (and now some dryers).
2) My mother, father and myself have always turned on and off the water supply manually to prevent big accidents and the washer & dryer are NEVER left running unattended (a flood can happen or a fire can break out). I have the on/off valve pictured.
3) I personally have not used the "FloodChek" brand but they do seem like they make sense.
I use braided stainless steel hoses.
What ever you use it helps if you can see them and have easy access to them to visually inspect them for damage.
4) The "dryerbox" is a good brand for recessed dryer venting solutions. Check the link out for the "dryerbox".
Here is a link that might be useful: The dryerbox
Personally, I have just the Outlet Box with Valves installed Flush to the wall, with the top of the box 2" below the top of the Washing machine. Aesthetically, it hides all that - and if I really needed to...I would just reach in and turn the 1/4 to shut it off.
However, I don't follow the practice on closing the valves when not in use. I don't do this for the sinks, fridges or toilets and I've yet to have a issue.
IMO, the biggest *flood* you can get is with built in icemakers.
That is why I do manual ice and the last 3 fridges I haved owned, I have specically chosen non-icemaker models.
enduring, I have been exactly where you are with a first floor Miele install a few years ago. I was not quite as detailed as you, but darn close. I think I can help with real world feedback (vs so much guessing).
I did install a 1" thick piece of plywood as an additional floor modification for the units (side by side not stacked). No matter how much you prepare for vibration you have to learn to REALLY balance your machine. It is more than using a level and very much iterative with trial and error on adjusting, in small increments, the leveling feet by feeling them for vibration, adjusting and repeating. Tedious and boring, but worth it. The anti vibration pads, KE Shakeaway in my case, made a noticeable difference too and are highly recommended.
I did not install a drain pan. My first question is with such a large pan, will your washer feet be resting on it? I'm not sure that is a good design. Can it hold the machine? Is it solid and stable enough? Level?
Floodcheck hoses are ESSENTIAL. WIthout this is as the foundation for your redundant leak prevention design, you are "hosed" (pun intended!). Good for you. All others hoses are junk and asking for trouble.
Pan or not, manual shut-off or not, you really need automatic leak detection. You forget that one time and... Or if you have some issue do you really want that pan managing hundreds of gallons of water for hours and hours while you are away? I originally installed a Watts Intelliflow. Piece of junk died in a year. Plus it uses non standard connectors so I couldn't just take it off and put on a manual valve without soldering or a plumber. I replaced it with the Floodstop unit. It is much better, but still has problems. Cheap plastic gears wore out and had the unit needed to function, my cold water shut off gear was damaged and I would have been screwed, because cold would not have shut off. I replaced the gears no charge via the vendor and a newer design seems to do the trick. There is no solid quality vendor on this type of thing, but again, Watts was awful and cheap. Floodstop much better.
Any way, the key is layers of redundancy. Good hoses, pan, leak detection... anything and everything you can do to back up any possible scenario of failure. Vibration is tricky, and even with a solid floor balancing is essential. Good luck! (edited for many sloppy typos!)
P.S. chefwong, ice makers are the #1 cause of water leak related insurance claims, washing machine hoses #2. The braided hoses to your faucets and toilets can fail after a while too (just cheap runner inside the braiding, the braiding does little), so I replace mine every five years. It is so easy to do, why not? Gee, you'd think we should all get lower insurance rates, we are all so careful! :-)

Thanks all for posting. I have stalled out on the remodel but will be back in action this next week when my carpenter can start. I have a new carpenter coming to appraise the progress of the job and start next week. Long story, but this new carpenter is actually the one I wanted originally but not unavailable so went with someone else (who didn't work out).
Here is a plan view as asked for, and an elevation. The two walls that create the corner where the W/D sit are both load bearing walls.
The blue square in upper left corner is the Miele W/D stack. The gray square to the right of W/D is the cabinetry and where I plan to access the shut off valve and dryer venting. These utilities will be in the back wall accessible through the shelving inside the cabinet:
This elevation shows cabinets to the right of the W/D and will have the shut off valve inside the cabinet, reachable through the shelving. This elevation rendition is not current. Instead, I plan to have doors above counter height, and have the below counter area open, without a door:
Shut off Valve: I have a manual shut off valve with the drain hole (all in one box) mounted by the plumber. This will be easily accessible from the side of the set, inside the cabinet.
Hoses: I have the Floodchek hoses on site and ready for installation.
Overflow Pan: I was thinking of a overflow pan such as this one I have linked below. It has a 5 gal capacity and has a 24x24 outside dimension.
Anti-Vibration: I still have not made a platform for the set but was thinking of 2 plywood 3/4" sheets with a sandwiched mass loaded vinyl sheet in between as recommended by Mongoct on the bathroom forum. Otherwise the anti-vibration feet that Deke mentions might work and a lot less trouble. I have see some anti-vibration feet on the Grainger web site for heavy machinery. I might try those. Here is a link:
Dryer Venting: I have been planning to bring it out the right side of the set, and accessible in the back of the cabinet, for cleaning ease. I may not be able to place it in the wall as the studs are in the way of the joist space for the ducting. If I can have the carpenter frame out the stud wall for a dryer vent I will. I want ridged venting, and have it accessible to the side of the dryer (not behind the dryer). If this can't be done within the wall space, I will have to put a hole in the floor in front of the wall for the venting, concealing it behind the cabinet. though this will make it vulnerable to bumping with the laundry basket that I plan to keep in the lower area below the counter.
My machines are at the warehouse waiting.
Any comments or recommendations are welcome!
Thanks again :)
Here is a link that might be useful: slide-n-fold pan
Talked to Miele tech department today. I don't have the set installed yet because the BR isn't ready.
Tech said platform of 1.25" thick would be enough. No drain needed as the set shuts down if a leak in the machine. That doesn't address if I get a leak in the hose though. Tech said the hoses are very durable hoses. Tech reassured me that my floor and placement of W/D will be fine.

Miele 4842 washer and related dryer being discontinued
Hi, a Miele rep told me that Miele is discontinuing the 4842 washing machines and related dryers. We have ordered two washers and one dryer but I am not sure it is good to buy them bc machines are being discontinued. The fellow told me that there was no quality or other problem with the machines just a corporate decision to not manufacture them anymore. A friend told me that Bosche did the same thing. We are renovating a house -- walls still open-- our laundry room sizeis custom to these machines. would you change please?
Thank you for your response - and it's a good point for sure. That's what our contractor says. I guess I am just afraid of getting a "lemon" and not being able to replace it. Our house won't be ready for another 6 months (or so). I was thinking of switching to a pair of the Little Giants instead...and an extra washing machine too...we do a lot of laundry at our house. Only issue with the Little Giants is that I don't think they are big enough for a king size blanket. Today, everybody should have my problems (fingers crossed)!
I probably wouldn't change the machines--but I sure wouldn't customize your laundry room for these particular ones. The house will last longer than the machines and when the time comes to replace them, you might want machines that won't fit without remodeling the laundry room. Perhaps that doesn't matter to you, but it would annoy the heck out of me, just for the hassle factor if not the expense. :-)
Great advice, thank you. This is our first large home renovation project and we have learned so much. I wish our architect had given us the advice that you just gave! It's so sensible and practical. I am thinking of whether I've made this same mistake in other rooms...
I believe Miele has a showroom in New York, so why not take one of your king size blankets and check the Little Giant's for size? That is what I did with my saddle pads and the people at Miele were very helpful.
If money is not a major factor, and you have a lot of laundry, Miele also has some larger models in its Professional line. One of the Scottsdale dealers had a great deal on a floor model set, so you might be able to find a similar deal in your area.
I do agree the other posters about giving yourself some flexibility in your layout.

Lonely tree in a field in Coventry, RI captured by a Holga 120N with Efke Infrared 820nm film and Hoya R72 filter. One second exposure. No digital manipulation.
"Holga Infrared Tree #7" is featured in the Experimental Photography and Editing and Moody, Dark and Evocative groups.
I missed your Holgas and looking forward to more.
Love this, brings to mind the "Burning Bush". The texture in the foreground really sucks my eye into the photo and the line of trees coming from the left side take my eye to the subject. This is a very nicely composed photo and a joy to view. I like it. dp
LOL.. what djprov said! this really is a wonderful shot..

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Renata de Mouro Moitinho sambas so fast her feet blur, but her partner moves with the bumbling tentativeness of a toddler taking his first steps.
Brazilian women celebrate WCup bonanza of men
And in a way the strapping man in a tight spandex soccer jersey really is taking his first steps — his first samba steps, that is: Moitinho's dance partner for the evening is an Italian, visiting Brazil for the World Cup, and she is giving him his very first lesson in the nation's frenetically paced national dance.
The two met at the Fan Fest in Rio de Janeiro, where 22-year-old Moitinho and a group of friends have been going throughout the monthlong tournament in order to, as she puts it, "hunt foreigners" like the Italian, who declined to give his name.
Moitinho's not alone.
The past three weeks' flood of foreign soccer fans — the vast majority of them men — has been a boon for the single women of Brazil, where a demographic imbalance means they outnumber men by more than 4 million nationally. The imbalance, the result of higher mortality rates among young men, is particularly acute in Rio de Janeiro, where there are just over nine men for every 10 women, according to the 2010 census. That's about the same as New York City, another metropolis known for its lack of eligible single men.
"There are so many men everywhere these days, it's amazing," Moitinho said, gesturing out over the sea of masculine faces at the Fan Fest. "The World Cup is God's gift to women."
Brazil's World Cup bonanza hasn't come without a downside, with scattered reports of Brazilian women being sexually harassed by out-of-control fans. But in most cases, Brazilian women say foreign fans have behaved well, and have displayed a more enlightened, less macho attitude than that of Brazilian guys.
Moitinho, who along with three friends braved the bus for more than two hours to get to the Fan Fest from their home in a distant Rio suburb, said foreigners just have a je ne sais quoi that their Brazilian counterparts lack.
"They're handsome, sweet, humble and generous," Moitinho said as her friends grabbed hold of the Italian's hips to lead him in samba's hallmark sway. "They respect women and don't come on strong like Brazilian men, who just grab on to you and try to kiss you right away. They're much more gentlemanly."

Trying anything new this Fall?
I did alot of planting this fall, all the bulbs I moved to the new yard from the old, plus clearance bulbs and a bunch of new named daff varieties. I'm looking forward to the spring of course, but I don't feel like I've added anything unusual or exotic. The only new bulb I'm trying is Fritillaria meleagris, the snake-head frit.... other than that it's stuff I've grown before.
Anyone trying something new?
Actually now that I think about it, I added a couple colchicums and fall crocus. Maybe the problem is I'm trying to rationalize buying something from Brent and Becky before the winter closes in completely. hmmmmmmm
Well Kato, as you know I am still planting. I for one will not be buying anything else.
Besides lots and lots of new daffs, I too have some new Colchicums, and some fall blooming crocus.
I also have
Hyacinthus orientalis Sky Jacket
Hyacinth Carnegie
Pink Impression Tulips
Big Smile Tulips
Nectaroscordum siculum
Double snowdrops 'Flore Pleno'
and Single snowdrops.
I figure that all of the bulbs I have already acquired, will supply me with enough 'new' blooms in 2009.
oops. I forgot about the Fantasy Creation muscari that were given to me. I hope they do well too!
I grew the Blue Spike once, but it seemed like they all went to regular blooms after a couple years. Have you ever seen that happen Mechele?
There's a "wintery mix" coming down outside. With slightly warmer temperatures I'm hoping that all my bulbs are happily rooting in and getting ready for next spring!
Sue- I thought I heard you mention you had a few of the multiflowering hyacinths. I've been eyeing those for a couple years.... but they always fall victim to a last minute budget cut.
I started the Blue Spike from a handful (10-20?) of bulbs from Dutch Gardens and within a few years they spread to cover the ground at the base of the tree. They all stayed true to form and seemed to be spreading both by seed and bulb division. That has been my only experience with them. I did not grow any other types of grape hyacinth at that time. Could yours possibly have mixed with standard grape hyacinths growing in the area? Maybe they cross pollinated? Someone else out there might have some insight on that. Next spring I will have 3 types of muscari so I guess I'll find out eventually.
I'm waiting for the 80 Barrett Browning daffodils I ordered from Touch of Nature's sale a few nights ago after reading about end of season sales on another thread. I understand your budget cuts and have the same situation but I can't seem to help myself! I justify my purchases by telling myself what a good deal I got. Last winter I "rescued" several bags of clearance daffodils at Wal-mart long after the time they should have been planted but the price was right and the poor babies needed a good home. Very few blooms from them last spring but they should do well next spring.
Well, sort of. Two years ago I potted up six Nerine from a bag at Costco. They grew weakly but no sign of a bloom until this month when three of them decided to bloom. The flower is quite nice, the first I had seen other than a picture. Apparently this is a plant that requires patience. At least it is hardy in this area and could be added to the garden. Al
I am trying a new variety of hyacynthoides (Spanish Bluebells), called Excelsior. Somehow or the other I got some bluebells in a bulb order about five years ago. They came up and grew for two years without blooming and I just kept leaving them alone waiting for them to do something. My patience was rewarded. They are lovely and are now happily naturalizing in my shade garden. I read in the spring that Excelsior is taller and a more vivid blue. I am looking forward to seeing the comparison. Hope it doesn't take two years this time.
I also added Camassias to my beds, with my fingers firmly crossed, and about 100 new ipheion, "Rolf Fiedler" bulbs. I planted six of the ipheion as an experiment three years ago. They are the bluest bloom you ever saw, as blue as the sky. I want a puddle of them at the foot of my Vitex tree. The originals have probably already tripled in number, so hopefully the addition this fall will help spread my puddle faster.

Canadian Government Blasts Mark Wahlberg Over Film Tax Credit Comments
TORONTO -- With friends like that: Actor-producer Mark Wahlberg has angered the Canadian government after he called on politicians to do more to keep Hollywood shooting in Canada, where he likes working.
The feds in Ottawa fired back at Wahlberg after he urged Canadian film tax credits for Hollywood film and TV shoots be restored after they apparently were cut.
"The government of Canada provides significant incentives for international film and television production companies to work in Canada," a spokesman for the federal heritage department told The Hollywood Reporter in a statement.
The ministry said two film tax credits launched by Ottawa in 1997 -- the Canadian film or video production tax credit and the film or video production services tax credit -- were sweetened in 2003 so Canada could remain competitive with rival U.S. locales and have not changed in value since then.
"They have not been cut at all since their creation," the spokesman insisted.
During a charity event in Wednesday in Toronto, Wahlberg, urged Canadian politicians to restore subsidies for Los Angeles producers shooting movies north of the border. "We are really trying to encourage the government to reinstate these tax incentives to bring film and cinema back to Canada," he told the Globe and Mail newspaper.
"It was some of the best work experiences that I've had, and it's just a shame that films are going to other places," added the Entourage executive producer, who has shot a half-dozen movies in Toronto and Vancouver over the years.
But Ottawa bureaucrats, unhappy with Hollywood North's biggest fan, insisted Canada was not losing U.S. production to rival locales because of lost tax breaks. Instead, the total volume of film and television production in Canada reached an all-time high of $5.5 billion in 2011, the Heritage Department said.

Dutch Jesuit priest, 75-year-old Frans van der Lugt was beaten and shot dead by unidentified gunmen at his monastery in Homs, Syria this week, the Vatican said. He had been living in Syria since the early Seventies. He's being described as man of great courage who had refused to leave the city despite the ongoing civil war there, Vatican spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi said.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - "Father Frans was killed in the garden of our monastery," Rev. Ziad Hillal, another Jesuit who lived there told Vatican Radio. "They shot him in the head. It was a premeditated act."
The priest was taken from the monastery in the morning and shot twice in the head, according to the Jesuit order in the Netherlands. "I can confirm that he's been killed," Jan Stuyt, secretary of the Dutch Jesuit Order, said by phone.

"A man came into his house, took him outside and shot him twice in the head. In the street in front of his house."
Stuyt said he was not aware of particular threats to van der Lugt, adding that the priest would be buried in Syria "according to his wishes."
Lombardi praised van der Lugt as a man of great courage who "despite an extremely difficult and risky situation, wanted to remain faithful to the Syrian people to whom he had dedicated his life and his spiritual service."
Dutch Foreign Minister Frans Timmermans wrote on his Facebook page that van der Lugt "only brought good to Homs, was a Syrian among Syrians, (who) refused to abandon them even when it meant risking his own life."
Christians comprised only 10 percent of Syria's population before protests in 2011 led to a wider civil war. The minority traditionally supported President Bashar al-Assad for protecting them and has been attacked by his opponents for that stand.

Bin Laden reading group digs for insights
When Osama bin Laden suggested in his latest audio message that Americans should read a particular book, its sales spiked, and columnists couldn't resist the flip comparisons to Oprah.
But the idea of an Osama reading club is no joke at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn. Since last fall, about 10 professors have been gathering periodically to talk about bin Laden's own writings and speeches. They aren't experts on the leader of Al Qaeda, but whether they teach about Islam, Judaism, terrorism, or political science, they all have a stake in knowing more about him.
"There's been so little careful reflection on how bin Laden thinks," says Volney Gay, director of Vanderbilt's Center for the Study of Religion and Culture, the sponsor of the interdisciplinary group. "For most of us, the media presentations ... have been 30- or 40-second summaries, [but] it struck us that he couldn't have all that power if he were simply a sociopath.... What he did was monstrous, but ... he can't be stupid."
Participants emphasize that the point is not to sympathize with bin Laden or elevate his statements as classic texts. Rather, they compare it to studying Hitler's "Mein Kampf."
"To me, as a citizen and as a human being, we have to think about the Holocaust, we have to think about terrorism, [and] universities have to throw their muscle behind these topics," Mr. Gay says. The group hopes to offer a panel discussion for the public this spring.
Until recently, it hasn't been easy for people to access bin Laden's words, partly because of government efforts to restrict the spread of his messages after 9/11.
Richard McGregor, assistant professor of Islamic studies, found some Arabic and English texts on the Internet, but he says he had to comb through much that was poorly edited or not well verified. This semester, they'll be using "Messages to the World," a new collection of bin Laden's statements.

I then met Tom Nook and did the jobs like delivering things and such. And before I knew it, I was done working there! Good but also bad. I didn't have to work for him but I still needed money. AND NOBODY WOULD OFFER ME SOMETHING TO DO UNTIL 7:30! Anyway, I collected tons of Peaches and Sea Shells and stuff. I even caught some fish, bugs, and fossils and donated them to the museum. After awhile, I boarded the Bus and left the the City. I got a Mii face, went to see a Show, walked around, got a shoe shine, and learned an emotion. When I got back, I explored some more, taking care of my loan on the house. I'm already close to being done with it. So yeah, just a typical first day in the life of Animal Crossing: City Folk. So yeah, this will be a DAILY blog segment so keep expecting LONG blogs. Until nextime, this is Firecookie29 with the Daily Snicker News.

Source for identifying my Hibiscuses (Hibiscii?)
Hey folks!
We went on a shopping spree at Lowe's a few weekends ago and came home with 5, $5.00 Hibiscus plants. Once we'd planted them, I noticed that they all had very different leaves and we were pleasantly surprised at the 5 completely different and beautiful flowers they each produce. I was even more surprised that none are the same as the one I already had, so online I went and learned just how many different species of Hibiscus there are.
Now I want to identify them all. Can you suggest a source or resource that is easy to use?
Are you sure you have 5 different species? I'm thinking you might have 5 different cultivars of hibiscus since there are very few hibiscus species blooming this time of year.
If you have tropical hibiscus (H. rosa-sinensis), which I think you probably do, a great resource is the International Hibiscus Society's hibiscus cultivar register.
Here's the link.
They are addictive, aren't they? I have so many, my husband built me a greenhouse to overwinter them in!
Here is a link that might be useful: Internationa Hibiscus Society hibiscus registar

My fall treated plants are 6-12" taller than my untreated fields. Anytime you are running your sprayer across your fields for any reason, add Monty's to the mix. It is definitely worth it.
We could tell a huge difference in the treated and untreated area of that field the first year. We repeated the test the second year and were absolutely blown away. The corn was almost twice as tall and the yield was over 50 bushels more where we applied Monty's Carbon for just two years.
I could tell the treated areas were not only getting more nutrients, but that the traditional fertilizer that I had applied was breaking down better and being absorbed more by the crop. The treated beans just utilized the nutrients more efficiently.

Monster DNA PRO 2.0 Headphones Review
Right out of the gate, you know you're listening to something special with the Monster DNA PRO 2.0. Combining deep bass and crystal clear details is something that hasn't been perfected yet, but the PRO 2.0 comes pretty damn close. With excellent noise isolation and strong crisp sound accompanied by good bass (not overbearing, but enough to really feel it), the DNA PRO 2.0, could be the best bang-for-your-buck this holiday season on the high end spectrum of over the ear headphones. As a bit of an audio geek I could honestly say that these headphones needed 0 equalizing adjustments out of the box, just clean music, with raw accents you will certainly not be able to hear with other over the head headphones. With all the professional grade qualities the 2.0 has, it's also catering to the audio enthusiast, not just the audio engineer. A dual-port input feature allows up to five headphones to connect to one music source at the same time, great for travel buddies, or bands looking for a cohesive synced detailed listen. While the price is comparable ($299.95) to the rest of the higher end headphones today, the sound quality far surpasses most.

Finnish for maple plank floors
We are considering putting in maple floors, 3.25 inch plank. throughout the kitchen, living room, hall, and two additional adjoining rooms (~1000 square feet). We want something that won't yellow, that can be walked on fairly soon (cannot take a vacation, teenage kids are in school), and will be stable enough for a house with a single gentle dog and studious teenagers who are soon to head to college.
The contractor suggested pallmann PALL-X 96, which is a waterborne one-component finish system. I've found a few reviews on line, positive, but not much information. On this amazing site, I either am using poor search criteria, or this product has not been discussed.
Do any of you have suggestions? Should we consider a hard wax finish instead? We are staying away from urethane because of its tendencies to become amber.

Budapest, Hungary 31 Jan - 2 Feb indoors?
Who will be in the team?
Farina Elia Fan
Dec 1st, 2007, 06:24 PM
Being indoors on hardcourt is amazing for GB and gives us a fighting chance imo
As I said on gbtennisgirls, for me it depends on the speed of the indoor court, if its lightening quick like some european indoor events, I think Mel and especially Sarah are in with a great chance. But its hard to look past Anne, Katie, Bally and Naomi
Dec 4th, 2007, 11:35 AM
Europe/Africa Zone Group I,
Budapest, Hungary: carpet (indoors) w/c 28 January
Dec 5th, 2007, 10:10 AM
Anne, Katie, Bally......if injured or ill.....throw Naomi and Mel into the mix!
Europe rocks
Dec 5th, 2007, 08:58 PM
After seeing how Anne did well in Kolkata on a similar surface, she should be top of the list
If Bally can get her serve going, she will be tough indoors
Then it comes to the tough part: Katie, Naomi, Mel, Sarah or Georgie
Sarah has always done well on quick surfaces, but seeing as she has been struggling with injuries lately I don't think she should be first choice, but definitely a hitting partner for the girls. Naomi has also been a little disappointing after her promising start, but she is more consistent than Mel, who has a good opportunity to climb the ranks after her poor start to the year. Katie also seems to do well on fast surfaces, but will she want to focus more on getting her ranking up...
Dec 13th, 2007, 03:46 PM
Team is
Good luck :):)

Dec 13th, 2007, 08:38 PM
im surprised there is no katie and georgie, maybe they are hoing to get rankings up..
Mel and Bally for doubles they could really out power some teams
Dec 14th, 2007, 10:11 AM
I was surprised Katie wasn't on there either, but then again I don't know what her indoor record is. Maybe that came into play???? I know Bally does well on the indoor courts as does Anne. Bally and mel would be interesting for doubles as both are heavy hitters and when Bally's serve is on....it's ON!
Jan 27th, 2008, 11:15 PM
Katie (replaced injured Naomi), Anne, Bally and Mel are the team. Draw is out Tuesday.
Bally and Mel would be a strong pair for doubles.
Good luck Team GB :)

Mel has said in her interview that she is going to play some doubles tournaments with Anne as they have been training together recently with coach Simon Walsh but Fed Cup is up to Nigel Sears will he put Mel/Anne or Mel/Bally? :)
Jan 28th, 2008, 10:31 PM
Fed Cup is up to Nigel Sears will he put Mel/Anne or Mel/Bally? :)
Before squad was selected I thought Mel/Bally was the obvious choice, but actually Mel/Anne might be the smarter choice because of Anne's movement.

GB Fed Cup team travel to Budapest
Great Britain's Fed Cup team will be competing in Europe / Africa Zone Group One in Budapest, Hungary, this week having been drawn against Switzerland, Hungary and Denmark in the opening round-robin pool.
Fed Cup 2008 gets under way this week with the GB team lining up in Europe / Africa Zone Group One in Budapest, Hungary, alongside 14 other teams.
The 15 competing nations have been divided up into four round-robin pools. The winners and losers of every pool will play-off against each other to determine which two teams are promoted and relegated for 2009.
Great Britain has been placed in a pool with Switzerland, Hungary and Denmark, and will face Switzerland in their first tie on Wednesday. Playing in the number one position for the Swiss team will be the world number 14 and former Australian Open semi-finalist, Patty Schnyder.
Every tie consists of two singles rubbers and one doubles rubber. Each day, team captains select a singles and doubles line-up from their squad of four players. To win a tie, a team must win at least two of the three rubbers played.
Its a tough group, all three teams we will face are able to select world class players but we are looking forward to the challenge.
Nigel Sears
Nigel Sears, GB Fed Cup captain, said: Its a tough group, all three teams we will face are able to select world class players but we are looking forward to the challenge. Whoever plays in the number one spot for Great Britain will have a difficult task but its an excellent opportunity for them to test themselves against these sorts of players. Preparations have gone really well and weve got an excellent team spirit. Im happy with the court, the surface suits our players and weve had some good training sessions.
The round-robin ties will be competed on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with the play-offs taking place on Saturday. The ties will be played on a fast indoor carpet surface at the SYMA Sportkozpont 2,200 capacity stadium.
The four players selected to make up the GB team are:
Anne Keothavong

Mel South

Katie was always going to have a tough task, but pushing Schnyder to two close sets and taking Wozniacki, who reached the last 16 at the Aussie Open, showed us that she can do it and if she works her socks off these opening few months of 2008, she might do it :)

A teen shelter gets a makeover
When a group of philanthropic interior designers and employees from Triumph Structures Long Island LLC, an aircraft parts manufacturer in Westbury, put their heads together to redesign Nassau Haven, a teen shelter in Wantagh, the result was both comforting and functional. The aim of Nassau Haven, which is run by Family and Children's Association, is to give residents, who stay a maximum of 30 days, a sense of calm. "The goal of the makeover was to give them a place where they could feel comfortable, not like they're in a shelter," says Joyce Mullen, director of marketing and communications for the Mineola headquarters of Family and Children's Association. As many as 400 youths pass through Nassau Haven each year. -- Sylvia E. King-Cohen

2001 Ford Mustang Problems
If a squeaking noise is heard while turning the steering wheel, the outer tie rod ends may be worn and should be replaced.
It is not uncommon for the intake manifold and/or valve cover gaskets to develop a coolant or oil leak. Leakage from the intake manifold may result in coolant in the engine oil. Coolant mixing with the engine oil severally impacts the lubrication ability of the oil. Internal engine may result if this condition is not repaired promptly.
A creak/pop noise while turning may mean that updated steering rack bushing tubes need to be installed.

Decent so far 140000 miles and I just changed the exhaust manifold thinking it was cracked but loose bolt and the manifold that was in, was still the stock dealer ships and looked brand new gasket was shot but 14 year old manifold looked brand new I like it keep up on maintainer though
I have had my V6 stang for 4 1/2 years. I bought it used and have had to replace the alternator and the engine just went out. It has 104k miles, but I think the engine problem was my fault for not keeping up with maintenance. I love the car and am going to fix it.

If you're like most people, you probably have a small dimple in your belly. Israelis now call this bellybutton a pupik (PU-pik), but that wasn't always the case.

quilt made for my sister's b/d
nana24June 21, 2008
I made this quilt for my sister for her b/d this month. I started with a reproduction 30's kit for the flowers then bought more fabric for the other blocks.
When the blocks were made I birthed it with a piece of fleece and quilted in the ditch on the machine. I used a decorative stitch around the edge.
Oh Sally,
Oh Sally,
I just want to curl up with it and pretend that my mom or grandma are taking care of me because I am home sick from school. Nearly makes me want to cry. Oh course, I am hoping that cookies would be baking in the oven and that I would complain that my throat was sore and I would get a malt. What size is it. Just love it. Deanna
