Alaska with the Moms

May 26th 2013
Published: May 27th 2013
Our pre-paid shuttle showed up early, and besides the Oosterdam, others were headed for The Golden Princess and Norwegian cruises in Alaska. Our driver answered the question of how long the shuttle would take by saying, "On Sundays, with normal traffic, and three cruise ships in port, about eleven hours, but for you I'll try to break twenty-five minutes." His estimate wasn't far off, but mostly because of the heavy port congestion where every few feet another traffic officer was trying to control the chaos, and every one of them seem to have it in for our driver. One cop even ordered our van to stop, while he directed the van behind us to go around and on ahead, while we waited for the cross traffic another two minutes. We finally did get to the drop-off point, but every thirty feet another cop directed us away from the unloading zone, to continue on down until we were at the very end of the unloading area. They must really not like our driver. We had to track down a porter to get our bags taken aboard the ship, and he must have liked his $10 tip for four bags, because they found their way to our stateroom when we got back from lunch.
We might have been a little early, but Sharon maneuvered us to the 4-star check-in, and we got expedited service. There were even chairs for all of us to sit down. They didn't need pictures for Sharon and me, because they still had our pictures from the Antarctica Cruise, and they said they were just fine. My mother Beth wasn't happy with her picture, so I guess she'll have to dye her naturally white hair if she goes cruising with HAL again. That was one of the criteria for taking a new picture, along with hair style, glasses, etc. We also enjoyed the benefit of being in Boarding Group 1. Having a 4-star wife has its perks. We sat for some time in the assembly area before a lady came through calling for Boarding Group 1, so we followed her, and wound up near the front of the line. Unfortunately they were waiting on the photographer. He did show up, but was taking pictures of his crew friends and staff, and it was just a little annoying that they weren't ready for us after calling for us. I suggested that it was just a clever ploy to get us to give up our seats, which were immediately occupied when we left. After twenty-five minutes, my mother needed to find a seat, which she was able to do. It was another ten minutes before they started the lines going, taking pictures as people went through.
We got to our staterooms at about 11:45, and the Mariner's Welcome Aboard Lunch was commencing in the Vista Dining Room in just fifteen minutes. We were seated at a table for four by the starboard side window, same side as our cabin. This is my first time on this type of HAL ship; although, I have sailed on the Nieuw Amsterdam for our honeymoon, which my wife tells me is slightly larger. It has the main dining on decks 2 and 3, as is the Showroom, which is slightly reversed from the smaller ships. Our inside cabin was noticeably smaller than our Lanai Cabin on the Veendam. The interior arrangement is also quite interesting, and some might feel borders on claustrophobic. I think it might actually work out quite nicely. I'm sure Sharon's mother Shirley and my mom were wondering about the single queen size bed in their cabin, but Sharon assured my mom that the bed could be separated.
We got to the dining room just as they were opening up. The menu seems to be the same as I've seen on previous cruises for lunch the first day. I had the Reuben Sandwich, starting with the Bay Shrimp Cocktail followed by the Mushroom and Barley Soup. Sharon had the Avocado and Bacon Burger, sans Avocado and Bacon and Anything Else! Sharon's Mom Shirley had the same thing as Sharon. John's Mom Beth had the same thing as Shirley, except she relented and accepted the bacon. When the dishes came, they also came sans French Fries. Our server went back to bring a large plate of community Fries. We all enjoyed our meals. This was the first time I'd gotten the Reuben, and I'll definitely get it again. Sharon steered me clear of the "Fried Chicken" which I had previously ordered. For dessert, Shirley and Beth had the Butterscotch Ice Cream, and Sharon and I had the Chocolate Mousse cake, which was decidedly light, airy and tasty.
We stopped by the front office and requested that the bed in our mother's cabin be separated. They said it would be taken care of by 6pm, but currently the cabin stewards are busy moving luggage into the proper cabins. Indeed, when we returned to our cabins, all of our luggage was there. Sharon and I started to unload our suitcases, and the mothers did the same. It was approaching 2pm and we decided to go see the talk by the National Park Ranger on our itinerary. It was informative, but somehow lacked the punch or pizzazz of the speakers in Antarctica.
We made our way to one of the bars on the Promenade Deck and ordered a Coke for my mother and I. Sharon had hers with lunch, and she seldom has two back to back like this, though she did borrow a couple of sips of my drink. We were just passing a few minutes until the Life Boat Drill scheduled for 3pm. Our Station is Number 15, and we wound up standing directly in front of an exhaust fan, which might be fine on a hot sunny day, which this was not. And we had to stand there for about fifteen minutes as stragglers dragged in. Sharon blocked the fan breeze for her mother, and I did the same for mine. When the drill was over, we made our way back to the cabin and finished unpacking. The Mom's beds had been separate though they only moved one of the night stands so there's a small isle on the right side of each. We each helped our mothers finish unpacking and got their bags under the bed so they had room to move. Sharon and Shirley made their way to the 5pm mass, while my mother napped, and I got caught up on the blog.
– We had a good group of about 40 for mass and the priest was very interesting but I don't remember his name. He's originally from Ireland but spent most his time in the San Francisco area after some mission time in the Alabama/Mississippi area during the 60's which he said was not a good time for Catholics in that area. He's now retired and is happy not to have to do the administration so he just says mass and prays and goes on cruises when he gets a chance. He gave a nice sermon on the Trinity and found a related hymn since it was Trinity Sunday. He also didn't say anything about not shaking hands for the sign of peace which they normally do on the ship. I know RuthC remembers the Peace Elbows from January J
We got to dinner about a quarter to six, and I saw something I don't think I've ever seen before at the dining room… there was a line. In fact, there were two lines. The first had no one in it and was for "Reservations". The second line was for "Walk-Ins", and it wrapped around the side back towards the elevators. But it moved, and we were quickly seated at a table for ten. We took advantage of Sharon's 4-Star status to buy 3 bottles of wine for a 50% discount, choosing a Pinot Noir from France. My mother likes to drink a glass before bed, and most of this was for her, but Shirley and I also plan to have some for dinner from time to time as we did tonight. Sharon, who doesn't drink, confused me by ordering a glass for herself, thinking it would be for my mom. But it threw her for a loop when they poured a small amount in the glass for her to approve; but, she quickly deferred to me. Despite Sharon being there with her 83 year-old mother, and me with my 82 year-old mother, another diner at our table had us beat who was joined by her 90 year-old mother on her first cruise. Sharon asked her, "What took you so long." She just shrugged and answered, "I don't know." As it turned out, she and her husband had been booked on a cruise many years ago, but on the cruise preceding theirs, the ship floundered, and their cruise go cancelled. After that, she expressed no urgency to go through that again.
I chose the Chef's Recommended Mango Scallops for my appetizer, while my mom had the fruit cocktail, Sharon the Steak Soup and Shirley a salad. My mom and I both had the baked potato soup for our second course. And it was Prime Rib well-done for Shirley, medium for Sharon, medium-rare for me and my mother fooled us all by getting the roast chicken with stuffing. The beef served with a baked potato was delicious, and I was able to get a quite strong horse radish sauce for mine, so I was pleased. If Ron was there, I know he would have complained that the women got the biggest pieces of meat (their hunks of meat easily weighed 20 ounces each; while, mine came in at a quite respectable 14 ounces). Our potatoes were done nicely as well, as were our side vegetables of string beans and carrots. It was a bit tougher to pick a dessert, there being no clear chocolate choice. I settled for the Banana Crisp with a scoop of vanilla ice cream that came off as a dead ringer for Banana's Foster. I would definitely get this dish again! Sharon ordered the Ice Cream Sundae, but forgot to order it without nuts. We all knew my mom would go for the Viennese Apple Strudel, which she ordered with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Shirley also had the hot fudge Sundae and her hot tea (which is about all she drinks). She was very pleased that they have her favorite plain Lipton Tea. The woman sitting on the other side of her was also a tea drinker so they enjoyed talking about tea while they drank it. I also got the daily cordial Mocha Mint consisting of Kahlua, Crème de Mint (green) and Crème de Cacao (white).
John and his mother decided to turn in for the night. I was a bit tired but knew my mother wanted to go to the show so we headed up to the down to the Vista lounge. They had a free $250 Bingo game before the show. The "Show Host" Alex (they seem to have lots of new titles on this ship) discussed the rules and etiquette for Bingo. I'm pretty sure he's "DJ" Alex from our South America/Antarctica Cruise on the Veendam last Jan. We really enjoyed him on that cruise and if they do the game where they give definitions for odd words we'll definitely have to go (we still laugh over the ones he did with pantyhose and whale sounds but you had to be there). We didn't do too well with Bingo which was an X game. At one point he asked those who still didn't have a number to wave their cards and I was one of about 40 while my mother had at least 1 number. Quite a while later when he made a comment about anyone not having any numbers I was the only one left and there were already people standing for be being one number away. The first person who called Bingo from the Balcony area had a Bongo (only 1 line) after he long hike down to get it checked. So the game continued and I managed to get 5 out of the last 7 numbers. Oh well maybe we'll win tomorrow.
The show was called Listen to the Music. Someone mentioned it was the first time they were doing it but it was the same one we saw on the Veendam in January. We all had to learn our part (2 claps and 5 points) though this time it was done with a video of people in all parts of the ship doing it. In Jan Alex had taught us. The show then introduced all of the entertainers on board who each did a song or two. There are some very good singers in the group and the Piano Bar player Ben looks like he should be lots of fun. They didn't do the YMCA part that Alex got everyone up on in Jan. My mother really enjoyed the show and even got her claps and points down pretty well. By now it was after 10 so we headed back down for some sleep. We are looking forward to our first relaxing sea day tomorrow, after a hectic day of hurry up and wait.

WANTED: Swappers with Water Hyacinth or Parrot's Feather
Hey everyone,
I finally clipped the mass of English ivy that was choking out the life from the lily pond at the house I live at. The owner wants the ivy gone and I'm going to hopefully add more tropical/exotic looking plants. I'm also adding some paradise fish to the water (its about 6' long, 2' deep, and 3' wide. Hopefully they can control the mosquitoes and provide a little interest. I was hoping someone who was attending the MAG Swap in my had some Water Hyacinth, Parrot's Feather, or other wispy aquatic plants the fish could use as habitat. I'm going to bring the fish inside before the cold hits so I can do the same for the plants and overwinter them in the aquarium.
If anyone has some extra, let me know. I have Brugmansia, Datura, Hardy Hibiscus, and a good number of tropical plants I could trade for.
Thank you,
FYI, Both are considered 'invasive species of concern' in Maryland and water hyacinth is on the Federal noxious week list. I wonder if other water gardeners could suggest better options? Would be a shame to have won the battle over one noxious weed (the ivy ) and intentionally bring in others :(
Water hyacinth freezes to death in the winter. Down in more tropical locations it can be a serious problem, but at 3000ft elevation it turns to mush rather quickly. The parrot's feather is gonna be yanked out when the time comes as well. The pond is in an enclosed courtyard, too small for waterfowl to use (A major way floating plants move around), and on a completely enclosed system. I'm not planning on putting either species in a wild or uncontrolled habitat. Invasive is a relative term. Also, the federally listed species of water hyacinth is Eichhornia azurea, I was looking for Eichhornia crassipes. But that's splitting hairs. I have experience in aquariums/greenhouses with water hyacinth and parrot's feather and I know they're excellent for hiding fish larve from their hungry parents. If anyone can recommend another species which has finely divided roots or leaves that guppy/paradise fish fry can mature in, please recommend it.

Hans Zimmer Did 'Unspeakable Things' to a Train in Creating 'The Lone Ranger' Score
The latest summer tentpole to feature a Hans Zimmer score is Disney's upcoming The Lone Ranger.
And while the famed composer relied on a dozen drums to help him create the Man of Steel score, for this movie, he used a less conventional, more authentic instrument: a train.
PHOTOS: 'The Lone Ranger' Character Posters Send Johnny Depp to Wild West
Locomotives are featured prominently in the movie, and Zimmer used an old train on the property of his neighbor, X-Files creator Chris Carter, to create a programmable drum kit that he used for the score's rhythm and bass line.
"I said, 'Chris, do you mind if I come over with a tape recorder and a sledgehammer, and we do some unspeakable things to your train?' " Zimmer tells LA Weekly.
"I don't care what my instruments are. I like when they bleed into what you see on the screen. Trains have great rhythms and grooves, and all I wanted to do was order the chaos a bit so that, maybe a little like Mussolini, 'the trains would arrive on time.' "
STORY: 'Lone Ranger' Premiere Brings Johnny Depp, Armie Hammer and the Wild West to Disneyland
Zimmer replaced musician Jack White as The Lone Ranger's composer after the latter had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.
He previously worked with the film's director, Gore Verbinski, and star Johnny Depp on the Pirates of the Caribbean films and Rango.
The Lone Ranger hits theaters on July 3.

The U-S Department of Agriculture has now designated the entire state and bordering counties in Massachusetts, New York and New Hampshire a federal disaster area. WAMC's North Country Bureau Chief Pat Bradley has more.

Gateway Worship - O For A Thousand Tongues (Modernized) - Inspirational Videos
Embed bobmarshall 1155 views 2012-05-14T20:09:06 The traditional hymn "O For A Thousand Tongues" was written in the 1700s by Charles Wesley. The original hymn had 18 stanzas. I believe the last three verses in this version were not part of the original hymn, but the first verse certainly is. And, of course, the extra "Hallelujah" chorus is new, too. I believe the new additions were written by Thomas Miller of Gateway Worship. Ben Haake sings lead vocals here. The song is from the wonderful DVD "God Be Praised".

I had figured we'd be up by 12 to 15 cents a gallon here, now we're up by 18 cents a gallon already within hours. It hasn't really hit you folks yet, but it's going to. It might happen within two to three days or it could be a week before it happens, but you'll be going up as well.
I had sent this out to as many as I could yesterday morning: Better watch out, looks like we're headed up at the pump again. Price of oil up $7 a barrel since last night. Gas is up another five cents a gallon. We're already up now by 19 to 26 cents a gallon at the majority of stations since yesterday morning. It's not over yet either. I was hoping to get it out to everyone ahead of time, but no luck. There's still some stations that are at the lows of $2.29 to $2.39 here, but that won't last much longer. Maybe there's some lower priced stations still in your area as well. I'd get gassed up.
Happy "First Day of Spring!!!"
I doubt they would run the video award, but you can spread the word by posting a topic in off topic and just for fun and then also adding a comment to any posts you make in various forums with the link to the discussions in TBTU and SGBI.
Happy Friday the 13th! Hey ziyulu, here's a topic I had been talking about starting to some out here. Saves me a lot of writing to whiteboards and the inbox of everyone I'd be contacting: http://www.tampagasprices.com/Forum_MSG.aspx?category=1056&topic=604318&page_no=1
Article I posted today!
I'll be setting up a forum topic within two weeks.
Happy New Year!
Going out with the old in with a Happy New Year!
Have a wonderful and safe New Years eve, and a prosperous 2015 for you and yours!

I don't think any commercial growers carry them now.
I never saw those before, they are lovely. Are they Begonia semperflorens?
Yes, they are semps.The flowers can reach two inches. They are also what I have been told are called 'Frilly Dillies'.The photo is of the pink form, selfed, the flowers there are curlier but smaller than the parent's.

The result on Friday matched the result last Wednesday. A shutout loss to the Rangers featured a lifeless and uninterested Flyers team.
This is not the same team that was rolling entering a five-day break on Nov. 8. This Flyers team, 1-6-1 in their last eight games is not a playoff team.
And teams that are not worthy of the playoffs in Philadelphia get booed for efforts like the pitiful performance they displayed on Friday.
There was a general lack of answers following another loss, but one common theme. The fans response was deserved.

The annual Black Friday matinee was anything but a show. The Flyers played a very uninspired game, Dan Boyle, Martin St. Louis and Rick Nash all netted goals. Cam Talbot turned aside 26 shots and the New York Rangers shutout the Flyers once again 3-0 at the Wells Fargo Center.

The Philadelphia Flyers (8-10-3) will look to regroup at home today as they welcome the New York Rangers (9-8-4) to the Wells Fargo Center for the annual Black Friday game. This is the first game of a home and home with the Rangers. Game time is 1:00.

The Flyers turned in a second-period effort that would suit a last-place team. Steve Mason was the victim.
Craig Berube pulled the goalie that made 46 saves on Monday to keep his team in the game as Mason's teammates floundered in front of him again.
For Berube, the message was the same following Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings as it was on Monday: the Flyers are not competing enough.

FTC Blasts WSJ's 'Misleading Narrative' on Google
March 26, 2015
FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez, along with Commissioners Julie Brill and Maureen Ohlausen, on Wednesday released a statement reaffirming the agency's decision not to prosecute Google over its search practices, and insisting it was in line with the recommendations of the FTC's staff. The statement refutes "recent press reports" suggesting Google got special treatment due to its political influence.
Cortana Could Edge Out Siri, Google Now
March 13, 2015
Microsoft later this year will offer its Cortana personal assistant as a standalone app for iOS and Android devices. The engine behind Cortana is "arguably better than [Siri or Google Now] simply because it's far more mature and comprehensive," said tech analyst Rob Enderle. The Cortana personal assistant evolved from the AI character Cortana in the Halo video game series.
Yandex Asks Russian Authorities to Drop the Hammer on Google
February 18, 2015
Yandex has asked Russia's antitrust authorities to look into whether Google is breaking the country's laws by not allowing preinstallation of third-party services on Android devices. Three smartphone vendors told Yandex last year that they couldn't install its search engine as the default, the company claimed. Yandex is seeking to have the Android OS unbundled from Google Search.
Is Paltrow More Qualified Than Mayer to Run Yahoo?
February 16, 2015
While working on a piece about bad decisions recently, I revisited Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer's decision not to hire Academy Award winner and successful lifestyle author and blogger Gwyneth Paltrow for a lifestyle editing position...because she didn't have a college degree. Let's explore the idea of Paltrow running Yahoo -- and we'll also take a look at my product of the week: an amazing new curved phone from LG.
Is an Apple Maps Upgrade in the Works?
February 09, 2015
The ad on Apple's job site is innocuous enough, seeking an engineering project manager for Apple Search. However, that raises questions about whether Apple has plans to further improve its Maps app, possibly by strengthening local listings, which are increasingly important to businesses. "Apple may well revamp its street maps, as that application has far more value in an increasingly mobile world," noted Alan Pelz-Sharpe, a research director at the 451 Group.
Facebook's Place Tips May Lead Advertisers to Pot of Gold
February 02, 2015
Facebook last week announced Place Tips for iPhones, a feature that will give subscribers location-based recommendations at the top of their News Feeds. No mention was made of launching Place Tips for Android or Windows Phone devices. Tapping on Place Tips will call up the information, which will include posts and photos friends have shared about a particular place.
Auto Insurance? Just Google It
January 12, 2015
Google reportedly is gearing up to launch a shopping and comparison site for auto insurance in the United States. The company has been operating such a site in the UK, dubbed "Google Compare," for the past two years. Although it apparently has been beset by delays, an entity called "Google Compare Auto Insurance Services Inc." now is licensed to do business in 26 states.
Google Joins Charlie Hebdo Solidarity Movement
January 09, 2015
Google has donated nearly $300,000 to help French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo make its largest print run ever, following Wednesday's massacre at the magazine's Paris office. Its normal production run numbers about 60,000 copies, but the surviving staff plan to print a million issues next week. A number of media outlets also have pledged to help keep the publication alive.
No News Is Google Spain News
December 11, 2014
Google on Thursday said it will close Google News in Spain, as of Dec. 16. That's in reaction to a new law that will take effect in Spain in January. The law requires all Spanish publications to charge content aggregators for publishing any part of their content. Spain's new law is "a perverse policy," said Ronald Gruia, director of emerging telecoms at Frost & Sullivan.
Facebook Search Tool Finds Posts in a Haystack
December 09, 2014
Facebook has made it possible for users to perform keyword searches for individual posts on the social network. "With a quick search, you can get back to a fun video from your graduation, a news article you've been meaning to read, or photos from your friend's wedding last summer," said Tom Stocky, Facebook's vice president of search. Users still have the option of using search phrases as well.
Google Sets Its Sights on the Under-12 Set

Google soon will begin targeting kids 12 and under with tailored versions of its products, likely including its search functionality, along with offerings such as YouTube and Chrome. The company is pushing to change make its products fun and safe for children, Pavni Diwanji, Google vice president of engineering, said last week. The new initiative reportedly will begin next year.
Google Dips a Toe in Ad-Free Waters
November 21, 2014
Google on Friday unveiled Contributor, an experimental service that lets users make a donation to support the websites they visit instead of viewing ads. Currently available only by invitation, Contributor begins by asking users to set a monthly contribution amount between $1 and $3. Then, when they visit a participating website, part of their contribution goes to the creators of that site.
Firefox Sheds Google for Yahoo
November 21, 2014
Mozilla on Wednesday announced that Yahoo would replace Google as its global default search option, in a move that has set the tech media abuzz.

Twitter Opens Entire Multibillion-Tweet Gold Mine to Searchers
November 20, 2014
Twitter this week began indexing every public tweet posted since it began operating in 2006. "Our long-standing goal has been to let people search through every tweet ever published," said Yi Zhuang, who led the project team. Use cases Zhuang cited for the new infrastructure include results for entire TV and sports seasons, conferences, industry discussions and long-lived hashtag conversations.
BBC to Preserve Memory of Its 'Forgotten' Articles
October 17, 2014
The BBC will publish and continually update a list of its published articles that were removed from Google searches under Europe's "right to be forgotten" rule. David Jordan, director of editorial policy and standards for the BBC, announced the move. The decision is a reaction to the EC ruling that search engines must remove "inadequate, irrelevant or no longer relevant" links upon request.
Google's Doctor Is In
October 13, 2014
Google is offering a limited trial of a feature that offers people conducting searches of medical terms the opportunity to engage in a video chat with a health professional via its Helpouts service. Helpouts, which launched last November, connects users with experts in a variety of fields such as Art & Music, Fitness & Nutrition, and Health. The experts typically charge a fee for their service.
Attorney Slams Google for Making Money Off Nude Celeb Pics
October 02, 2014
Google may be on the receiving end of a $100 million lawsuit from attorneys representing some of the celebrities whose nude photos were hacked from their iCloud accounts and subsequently posted online. Entertainment lawyer Martin Singer has sent a letter to Google's top executives and its legal staff, accusing the company of ignoring a take-down request sent to it four weeks ago.
Google Brings Hamster-Eating Into Sticks-and-Stones Brawl With News Corp.
September 19, 2014
News Corp. and Google have lashed out at each other as the EU reconsiders the terms of its proposed antitrust settlement with the latter. News Corp. essentially accused Google of nefarious behavior in a letter to the European Competition Commissioner over the EU's proposed antitrust settlement with Google. Perhaps the irony of the situation hit Google hard.
If Google Were French
September 11, 2014
Europeans are relentlessly attacking Google: A German official called for its breakup, a French minister charged it was a threat to sovereignty, and a publisher compared it to a dragon, according to a report. Really? I would have thought the euro and the draconian austerity program needed to keep it functioning threatened sovereignty more than Google.
Google Autocomplete's Brushes With Libel
August 25, 2014
Can an automated Google feature that ostensibly helps users with a search be a basis for libel? Courts in Germany, Italy and Hong Kong have had to field that question. Google's position is that there is no human intervention, and that its algorithm is based merely on what others have searched for, or strings of words in indexed pages. Autocomplete predictions are just possible search terms.
Google Gets in a Trusted Stores Encryption Tangle
August 21, 2014
A conflict between Google's push to make the Web more secure and its Trusted Store program may be costing at least one business money. Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies, which encrypts all the pages on its website, reportedly has had its application for Google's Trusted Stores program turned down. Think of the badge as the equivalent of the Good Housekeeping Seal.
Google May Start Grooming Little Googlers
August 19, 2014
Google may soon allow kids under 13 to have their own personal accounts on services such as YouTube and Gmail. Under the new system, parents would be able to set up accounts for their children, control their use of those accounts, and regulate the information collected about them. "You could say that Google is just recognizing reality," said the Local Search Association's Greg Sterling.
Google Straps On Jetpac to Take Search to New Heights
August 19, 2014
Google has acquired Jetpac, according to a statement that appeared Friday on the Jetpac website. Jetpac is the creator of a handful of apps, including City Guides, which analyzes Instagram photos and then automatically creates guides based on the collected data. That information gives users a lot of search options. Not only can they find coffee shops, for example -- they can find the hippest.
Secure Sites to Get the Google Bump
August 07, 2014
Google on Wednesday announced that it has begun factoring websites' use of HTTPS into its search rankings, resulting in more favorable results for those that use the security-minded protocol. Use of the protocol still is considered just a minor factor, though, affecting fewer than 1 percent of global queries and carrying less weight than high-quality content.

Rokmen vs Clayton Control Arms
Just like it sounds. Let's hear opinions on which control arm people like better. I currently have all 8 JKS Arms.
As long as you get JJ's on both ends, it doesn't matter. The only real difference between the two are the materials in between the joints. In that case, I'd take Rokmen every time.
Don't for get about Savvy! I like that they offer them in two materials steel/aluminum. Gerald also offers JJ upper control arm front axle weld on kits! Yes i am biased, i have alot of Savvy parts on my TJ!

Funneling the sun's energy
Boston MA (SPX) Nov 27, 2012
The quest to harness a broader spectrum of sunlight's energy to produce electricity has taken a radically new turn, with the proposal of a "solar energy funnel" that takes advantage of materials under elastic strain. "We're trying to use elastic strains to produce unprecedented properties," says Ju Li, an MIT professor and corresponding author of a paper describing the new solar-funnel concept that was published this week in the journal Nature Photonics. In this case, the "funnel" is a metap ... read more

My friend and I were at my brother's wrestling match, and one of the moms asked us to watch her five-year old son. After a while of playing, he told us he needed to use the bathroom. We let him go by himself, and waited outside the door, but after a while, we heard him yelling for us. We went in there to help him and two guys walked in, looking flustered. They thought they had walked into the girls' room! We quickly explained ourselves, and rushed out of the bathroom. When we left, there was a long line of guys waiting! Let's just say we were more than embarrassed!

LeBron is so fast that when he hits the brakes, it leaves a mark
JAN 03, 2014 12:05p ET
Nike was just handed its newest marketing angle on a hardwood platter.
LeBron James took a tumble during the Miami Heat's Thursday night loss to the Golden State Warriors, but it was no ordinary man's tumble. King James went down in a puff of smoke and burnt metal -- well, actually, he just left skid marks, but it was still very impressive.
When James got up from his fall, a pair of long black marks could be seen on the floor from where he tried to put on the brakes. Check it out in the video and photo below.

I also noticed that the router is showing DHCP. I am assuming that this means I am using MOCA
there is not a Cat 5 connection to the router with the exception of my house cabling (house was prewired for network and FIOS with Cat 5e). However, there is a Cat 5 cable running into the ONT
I am contemplating adding a POE camera to the outside, but I need a network connection. I am thinking about stealing this one.
I am thinking about using the Cat5 run for the camera if it is available and not being used. I do not have the ability to add a second run to the area that I need the camera.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Meet Malaysia's first female mixed martial artist
20 Mar 2012 20:01 GMT | Politics, Asia, US & Canada, Afghanistan, Pakistan
General John Allen, the United States' top commander in Afghanistan, has told Congress that plans to withdraw from the country by the end of 2014 remain on track.Allen's statement to legislators on Tuesday followed the alleged massacre of 16 Afghan civilians by a US soldier and protests over the burning of Qurans at a US airbase which have damaged relations between the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and the Afghan government.In a testimony to the House Armed Services Committee, Allen said the killings in Kandahar had had no major impact on the withdrawal timetable and that coalition forces were making progress in handing over security to the Afghans, with the expectation that US combat forces would leave by December 2014.
"I believe the campaign is on track" Allen said of the more than 10-year ISAF mission.
But Allen said that 13 coalition troops had been killed by apparent Afghan security force members since January in attacks he said were believed to have been motivated by anger over the burning of Qurans at Bagram airbase.
Some legislators pressed Allen on whether the United States should accelerate the timetable for withdrawing some of the combat forces in the wake of recent problems in Afghanistan and growing war weariness in the US.
'Making a difference'
"We are making a difference. I know this and our troops know this" Allen said to the politicians facing an increasingly war-weary US public.
Live Box 201239113414952721
The current US plan calls for a withdrawal of 23,000 US troops by the end of September and a complete withdrawal by December 2014, when Afghan forces are to take charge of the country's security.
Allen told the committee that he had not yet assessed the force levels he expected would be required for 2013 and 2014.
"Before the end of 2012 I intend to provide through my chain of command to the president a series of recommendations on the kind of combat power that I'll need for 2013 and 2014. I don't have a decision at this point," he said.
He added that he had not made up his mind whether he would recommend an offensive in eastern Afghanistan, which officials had long suggested would follow up operations in the south.
"I've not made a final decision at this point. We anticipate shifting resources to the east in any case because it remains there that the principal COIN (counterinsurgency) fight will ultimately be shaped in 2012," he said.
Allen also expressed criticism of neighbouring Pakistan, which he said allowed al-Qaeda-linked and other armed groups "to operate with impunity: across the border, and Iran which he said "continued to support the insurgency and fuels often the flame of violence".
Source: Agencies
Following the US soldier's shooting spree in Kandahar, the conversation moved to the "backlash" and focused on the accused soldier. The victims became a footnote: just the number 16.
US army sergeant accused of slaughtering 16 civilians has sketchy memory of the night of the massacre, says his lawyer.

Pattern Review : Esme Top
I've been wanting to make the Esme Top for a while, and when Wildwood arrived in the shop last month some of the prints seemed very fitting. This was my first experience with Sew Liberated patterns. I consider myself a beginner when it comes to apparel making (quilter here!), and I found the video walk-throughs extremely helpful. Video tutorials are available with the purchase of all Sew Liberated patterns. The patterns also include detailed written instructions so that an experienced sewist can move on without watching the video.

Bartenders say Duluth man who froze to death not visibly intoxicated
The late Scott Miner was described Tuesday as a funny, friendly, likeable, even lovable young man who had a lot of problems -- including a serious alcohol problem.
That drinking problem contributed to Miner's death Jan. 25, 2009, and his family has brought a civil lawsuit against the Copasetic Lounge in Duluth for allegedly illegally serving alcohol to their loved one, who they contend was obviously intoxicated when served.

ABC's Latest Misleading Gun Poll
ABC has released the results of another gun poll claiming that support for background checks at gun shows has "vast public support." But neither the poll nor ABC's report notes that background checks already routinely occur at gun shows.
The poll focused on the various gun control bills currently coursing through Congress with one question asking whether or not respondents support "requiring background checks on people buying guns at gun shows."
Pointing out that Congress is considering a bill (S. 436) that would expand background checks, ABC reports that "a nearly unanimous 91 percent favor mandatory background checks on gun show sales."
This question pertains to the so-called "gun show loophole" and misleads people into imagining that background checks are not required at gun shows simply because they are gun shows. The fact is, though, that every licensed gun dealer is required to perform background checks on every gun sale whether he sells his wares at a gun show or from his own shop.
In other words, the gun show itself has nothing to do with this issue.
What Congress is considering is making background checks mandatory on all gun sales, even those between individual citizens. Currently, a private gun owner may sell his gun to any other private citizen without performing a background check. This is what Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer's bill is meant to address.
Few sellers at gun shows sell guns without background checks and when they do it has nothing to do with where they are selling it but instead has to do with who is doing the selling. ABC failed to note this important point.

Compost Bin Plans
My compost bin is nearing the end of its life. Several years ago, I bought a kit with aluminum posts to hold boards of a certain size and my hubby built it for me. I have almost emptied the compost out of it and into my beds but before I start a new batch, I need a new compost bin that is a little more functional. The posts on this one are too bent to work with but the boards are in good shape.
Ive seen the ones they have at different retailers and Id rather build one with wood and metal then be responsible for bringing more plastic into the world. I cant use just chicken wire or anything that doesn't look proper to the Homeowners Association.
Has anyone seen any books or plans for a wooden compost bin? My hubby isnt the most handy man ever so if I have some plans to show him the project has a greater chance of success.
Thank you for any ideas you might have :)
Here is a link that might be useful:
I have heard great things about simply wiring 4 used pallets together to form a box. They can be painted a lovely shade of green to not offend HOA sensibilities, or perhaps flamingo pink, depending.......
Anywho, chief advantage is using the sides of the bin as a fulcrum to fluff compost up with pry bar, eliminating all that tiresome turning and stuff.
Azura, I seem to have more composting success by focusing on moisture control rather than aeration. Therefore, I have dug down into the ground about 8" and then built the pile in & over that hole. The soil can be used in the pile as it grows. Concrete blocks have worked fairly well but I think that solid blocks would be a better choice than the standard construction blocks I used.
Below is a link to WSU cooperative extension. I clicked on the "Down to Earth" pdf and it has bin plans but there seems to be other useful info on the main page here.
The "stackable bin" looks like a good idea to me. The plan calls for using plastic deck boards but you wouldn't need to do that. Six foot cedar fencing should be just as appropriate.
Here is a link that might be useful: WSU cooperative extension composting
Thank you both for your ideas. I showed my hubby the WSU plans and he decided the current bin was fixable after all. :)
Its funny what a little motivation can do.
I will save the link you provided, Digit, because when we build a new deck in a few years I will need to build a new compost bin in a different area.
Go Cougars!!
Greetings and Salutations:
I (likewise) and not the best at woodworking, so I did a site "woodworking for the rest of us". In it I have plans with pictures for a 3 bin composting bin:
The plans are in PowerPoint or PDF.
If you have any questions please ask.
Here is a link that might be useful: Compost Bin Plans
My DH made a bin for us using some old fence wood. He made it appx. 3 ft square (recommended size told to us at a compost workshop). The bottom is open, so all the good critters that help break down the stuff can get right into it. I took some pics of it for you, azura, in case that would be helpful to your husband. It looks similar to the one in your pic, but maybe the wood post my husband used on ours are providing more strength to the structure of it (as I see yours is coming apart at the seams).
We've never done composting before, but I think we are off to a good start. When I turn it about once a week, I can see some good stuff forming on the bottom of the pile! Our plans are for him to make another one sometime soon so we can start a new batch in it, while the other one is finishing it's cooking without adding more to it (this is what the said to do at the compost workshop we went to).
Here are the pics:
Here is the whole view of it:

April 2
. Report Cards for all students K - 8, have gone home. Middle School is starting marking period 5, and for K-5, their last marking period 3.
We recently did a mailing to grade 3 - 8 parents. There was a lot information for some grades but the common piece was informing parents about the upcoming state assessment, SBAC. The mailing gave an overview of the assessment and a schedule for each grade's assessment days. We do ask that every effort be made to have your child in school on assessment days.
Wednesday, March 25
is a district early release day for all students,
dismissal. FHGS's Drama Troupe will perform The Frog and Toad on
Friday, March 27th at 6:30
in the gym. Parents, families and community are cordially invited to attend. The players have worked very hard and are excited to perform. SBAC assessments will begin on
March 30th
, again check the mailing for days your child will be assessed. Our GEO BEE team will compete at the district level on
