Blindsided, kick and talk both backfire
DENVER Hoody-itis: Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels dresses and thinks like his mentor, Bill Belichick of the New England Patriots, and he may end up catching some Belichick-like flak for the gamble that backfired on him and the Broncos yesterday. With 10 minutes left in the third quarter and the Chargers leading 13-3 after Matt Prater's field goal, McDaniels called for an onside kick that was a disaster from the start. Legedu Naanee recovered for the Chargers, who scored a TD six snaps later. "It seemed to be a good situation," McDaniels said. "We had some momentum. We feel very confident in it. We didn't execute it quite as well as we needed to. Those are situations where you take a risk and there is a great reward at the end of it, and if you don't get it, it can turn around and hurt you."
Blindsided: Not only is Chris Simms no Kyle Orton, but he's left-handed, and he's sure no Ken Stabler or the artist formerly known as Michael Vick. Lefty starting quarterbacks are a very rare thing in the NFL, so much so that after 15 years as an offensive coach with the Broncos, Rick Dennison cannot remember ever coaching a southpaw passer. Besides Simms' own shortcomings as a pro quarterback, his lefty status may help to negate one of the Broncos' true offensive advantages, mammoth left tackle Ryan Clady. One of the league's best young blockers, Clady generally covers his quarterback's backside, but that duty yesterday fell to the right side of the Denver line. The first time he dropped back to pass (after seven straight running plays), Simms was hit from behind by linebacker Shaun Phillips and fumbled the ball to Steve Gregory, starting the Chargers off to their first touchdown. Before the end of the first quarter, Simms was sacked again when blindsided by linebacker Kevin Burnett and nearly dropped again from behind by blitzing safety Eric Weddle.
Trench talk: How did you know a Chargers offensive play was over yesterday? You saw Kenny Peterson, one of the Denver defensive linemen getting pushed around yesterday afternoon, grousing at a referee and pointing at Chargers guard Kris Dielman. Or you saw an aggrieved somebody else in a blue jersey being pulled away from Dielman. The latter has that effect on opposing linemen, who hate playing against his uber-aggressive style, but also vote him into the Pro Bowl when it's all over. Clearly, though, Dielman thought the Broncos were extremely chatty for a team in the process of getting beaten by 29 points. "If their game is to run their mouth, they can, but we finished it off good," Dielman said. "They kept talking, pretty thoroughly, throughout the entire game. That's fine. That's their game, not ours."
Dielman, et al., add one: For the record, Dielman was not called for a single penalty. On the first play from scrimmage, safety Paul Oliver was whistled for a face mask, but the Chargers weren't penalized for the rest of the game. There were a few offsetting penalties, yet another indicator that the Chargers have gotten very good at getting the other team to draw the yellow flag. Nine times yesterday, the Broncos lost yardage by penalty, including more instances of Rivers drawing them offside with his counts. (Denver didn't dare complain. For so many years, the Broncos benefited from John Elway's ability to force offside calls.) It was the third straight game the Chargers' opponent has been penalized nine times. The Chargers have been penalized just seven times total in those three games.

My wife and I decided to dress up for the release of the Avengers movie earlier this year. Considering the fact that I had been growing my hair out and that I had a beard we thought it appropriate for me to go as Thor. I decided to start by making Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. After all, what's Thor without his powerful hammer?
(See the rest of the costume here)
Step 1: Supplies
-Foam Blocks
-Masking tape (wide)
-Wooden Dowel
-Leather scraps
-Silver paint
-A serrated knife
-A file
-A few other odds and ends
I made a slightly different version from a mixture of different tutorials including this one! MInes made from cardboard!
Awesome! It turned out great.
Hey! I'm making this for friday but I can't figure out how you've done the stitches in the handle!
Basically I just had to angle the needle through the holes. More often than not I put it through one hole and out the top and then angled it back under to come out the next one. If that makes any sense. I also kept the thread a little loose until it was stitched and then tugged the strings tight, tied them off, and tucked them under. Hope that helps. Good luck!
Definitely a very good and cheap idea for my childrens. thank you.
thanks alot.
You can use pretty much any kind of polystyrene foam. I just used this grey stuff because it was what I had around.

Salman Rushdie - Salman Rushdie 'Proposes To Michelle Barish'
by WENN | 09 December 2011
Author Salman Rushdie has proposed to his ex-girlfriend Michelle Barish just months after they split up.
The novelist asked Barish to marry him two days after she broke up with billionaire Steve Tisch on 29 November (11), according to the New York Post.
A source tells the publication's gossip column Page Six, "Salman is besotted. He asked her within 48 hours of her break-up to marry him. He even has a ring."
However, Rushdie will have to wait before Barish can walk down the aisle - she is not yet officially divorced from her entrepreneur husband Chris Barish.
Rushdie and Barish split in March (11).

Second ever quilt
Hi All,
I've lurked here for a while, I'm a beginner quilter. I finished my piecing my first quilt and had it quilted by an Amish girl in 2011 and took last winter off to do other projects. I created a quilt square for the end of my barn this past summer ... you can see some of this on my blog:
The quilt I am working on now will b a garden quilt ... I'm using a pattern I found in a quilt magazine that uses 2 Lemoyne Stars as flowers for the center, see photo.
And then I want to piece other blocks of flowers. I've found blocks that are iris, leaves, roses, etc.
If you know of any other quilt blocks for flowers, I'd love to see them. I'll post my first Lemoyne square flower in a second post ...
Not sure if I did this right, but added a link. Hope it works.
Here is a link that might be useful: spring garden flower pattern
Saw the Rosebud at Blocks Galore.....
You can also Google-Flower Quilt Blocks then click Image and you'll get quite a few pictures.
Here is a link that might be useful: Rosebud

Confidence key when changing careers
Occupation transitioning more than just upgrading education
Have you ever been in the situation where you've started to second guess yourself and rethink your career? Have you been asking yourself, "What am I doing here?" or, "What's wrong with me?" These thoughts and questions often reflect a sense of career unease and are usually a sign that personal job satisfaction has either slowly or abruptly come to an end.
Yet, job satisfaction is critical to one's self-esteem and self-confidence, so when your feelings of accomplishment begin to wane, it's time to seriously think about where you are in your career. Sometimes this simply means you need to add new tasks or challenges to your current job. On the other hand, it sometimes means you need to change jobs within your organization or change employers altogether in order to seek out new challenges and opportunities.
Seeking new opportunities might also mean investigating a totally different industry sector. However, one of the many questions that will arise is how to strategically reposition yourself as a viable candidate in a totally different industry sector. Keep in mind in a job search, you are the "product," so, if you want to move to a different industry sector, you have to look and act the part. To put this in a more colloquial terms, fitting into a new industry sector opportunity will require you to "walk like a duck, talk like a duck and act like a duck" the industry leaders will recognize.
In my view, this challenge can be overcome by understanding the new industry challenges, examining your transferable skills, and determining just how you can contribute. As well, you need to be well versed in the new industry vocabulary so that you can "talk" their language. Finally, your resume needs to reflect a linkage to the new industry sector and effectively presents you as an attractive candidate.
The first step is to study the industry sector in which you have an interest. What are the challenges and opportunities within this sector? What companies and organizations exist in this sector and which ones are of interest to you? Determine if there are any associations related to the industry sectors. If so, acquire their websites and read a series of newsletters. Quickly acquaint yourself with the culture of the industry sector, the nature of various activities, the language of the industry and its challenges and opportunities. In particular, watch for acronyms that are common to the industry which you will need to understand.
The second step to changing industry sectors is to identify and examine your core key transferable skill sets. This requires that you identify the tasks you engaged in, how you did each task and what skills were used. Make yourself a chart and review every single job task in every single job you have held. Also, do the same analysis for your volunteer roles. As you continue with your list of skills, you will see patterns emerge. Once you have these patterns, you will note they can be renamed in a more generic fashion. Some of the common patterns include communication skills, strategic planning, human resource management and teamwork. It is these generic skill groupings that transfer across industry sectors.
Next, take time to determine if you already have personal and professional contacts within the new industry sector. Reach out and set up meetings, inquire about the challenges and opportunities, ask for advice and additional referrals. Identify any associations that you could join and determine various networking and social activities that occur within the industry and begin to attend them. This will assist you in beginning to feel comfortable within this new environment and you will also meet people who could help with your transition
As you begin to understand the new industry sector and have confirmed your transferable skills, now is the time to revitalize your resume. Be sure to use a skills-based resume in order to highlight what you can do and what you have accomplished rather than highlighting the name of your former employer. In fact, page one should be all about your skills! Page two should demonstrate your accomplishments.
When drafting the statements about your accomplishments, take out any reference to your former employer and substitute more generic words or phrases. This allows the reader to envision potential contributions to their company. Once again, this strategy helps to focus on you as the candidate rather than on where you gained your experience.
Once all of these technical issues are addressed, you will need to prepare for the interview. Focus your attention on those transferable skills and prepare to speak on at least three accomplishments for every skill you offer. One of the key questions you may be asked will relate to why you left or are wishing to leave your current job. Be sure to focus on the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead for you in the new industry.
In some cases, you might also have upgraded your education and are applying for a completely different occupation and job. Your fear then might be that your old job classification will be a detriment to your new goal. In that case, I suggest discussing your new education in a cover letter and ensuring that your new skills are listed first and foremost in your skills-based resume.
If you are indeed not only changing industry sectors but also your occupation, you may have to consider and accept the accompanying financial implications. Typically, I suggest that a senior manager consider a $10,000 increase or a drop in their pay depending on the length of time it will take for you to contribute at a high productivity level.
For those who are totally changing an occupation especially at a more junior level, you might well be offered a starting level wage. However, keep in mind that with your experience, you may have the opportunity to move quickly within the new organization. In other words, you'll find that within two to three years, your income will have increased to your satisfaction.
Finally, another key to a successful career transition to a new industry and/or occupation is to consistently demonstrate personal self-confidence. This means that you need to really know who you are, what you are good at, what you like to do and feel secure in understanding the rationale for leaving your current occupation. On the other hand, be sure you are not simply running away from a difficult situation.
Look confident, act confident and speak confidently and you will be successful in securing your new role.

VIEWS: 1,120 PAGES: 4 CATEGORY: Tax Forms POSTED ON: 9/16/2008
This is an example of income tax rates. This document is useful for studying income tax rates.
Taxation (Tax Rate Increase) Bill – Information Sheet Increase in the top personal tax rate The proposed statutory income tax rates for individuals (including unincorporated bodies) will be: Income not exceeding $38,000 19.5 cents Income exceeding $38,000 but not exceeding $60,000 33 cents Income exceeding $60,000 39 cents The effective marginal tax rates (taking into account the Low Income Rebate) will be: Income not exceeding $9,500 15 cents Income exceeding $9,500 but not exceeding $38,000 21 cents Income exceeding $38,000 but not exceeding $60,000 33 cents Income exceeding $60,000 39 cents The new tax rates will apply for the 2000-01 and subsequent income years. Extra emolument rate The extra emolument rate for lump sum payments such as bonuses, back pay, redundancy and retirement payments will be increased to 39%. This higher rate will apply if the sum of the extra emolument and the annualised value of salary or wages paid to the employee by that employer in the previous four weeks is more than $60,000. Employees may elect to have this higher rate of 39% apply to extra emolument payments. This higher rate will ensure that taxpayers do not have an end-of-year tax liability because their extra emolument was under-deducted at source. This under-deduction could arise if a taxpayer's annual income is over $60,000 and he or she receives an extra emolument and has other income not taxed at source. E XTRA EMOLUMENT RATES Income does not exceed $38,000 21 cents Income exceeds $38,000 but does exceed $60,000 33 cents (mandatory and elective) Income exceeds $60,000 39 cents (mandatory and elective) The increased extra emolument rate will apply to extra emolument payments on or after 1 April 2000. Secondary employment earnings Employees who earn secondary employment income will be able to elect a 39% PAYE withholding rate. This rate should be used by taxpayers whose annual income is more than $60,000 and who also earn secondary employment income. This will ensure that these Page 14 taxpayers do not have an end-of-year tax liability because their secondary employment earnings were under-deducted at source. The secondary employment earnings tax deduction codes will be as follows: Tax deduction code Withholding tax Who should use this code rate "S" 21 cents Taxpayers with secondary employment earnings whose annual income does not exceed $38,000 "SH" 33 cents Taxpayers with secondary employment earnings whose annual income exceeds $38,000 but does not exceed $60,000 "ST" 39 cents Taxpayers with secondary employment earnings whose annual income exceeds $60,000 The increased rate and the new tax deduction codes will apply to tax deducted from secondary employment earnings for pay periods beginning on or after 1 April 2000. Resident withholding tax on interest Taxpayers who earn interest will be able to elect a 39% resident withholding rate. It is expected that this rate will be used by taxpayers with income over $60,000 so they can have the correct tax deducted at source to prevent end-of-year tax liabilities. The non-declaration rate will reduce from 45% to 39% from 1 April 2000. The non- declaration rate applies to those who do not give the interest payer (such as a bank) their IRD number. The rate will be 19.5% for taxpayers who provide the interest payer their IRD number but do not elect a resident withholding tax rate. Resident withholding Who should elect to use this rate tax rate on interest 19.5% Taxpayers whose annual income does not exceed $38,000 33% Taxpayers whose annual income exceeds $38,000 but does not exceed $60,000 39% Taxpayers whose annual income exceeds $60,000 39% Taxpayers who do not provide their IRD number The higher resident withholding tax rate and reduced non-declaration rate apply to interest paid on or after 1 April 2000. The rules allowing taxpayers to elect a higher resident withholding rate will be amended to cater for the election of the 39% rate. This change will apply from date of enactment so that interest payers (such as banks) can put in place systems allowing taxpayers to make elections before 1 April 2000. Page 24 The rules setting out the information to be shown on resident withholding tax deduction certificates will be amended to reflect the introduction of the elective 39% resident withholding tax rate. Provisional tax Rules for calculating provisional tax during the 2000-01 and 2001-02 income years are being introduced to ensure that provisional tax payments for these years reflect the increased tax rate. These rules will apply to individuals and other persons to whom the individual tax rates apply, such as unincorporated bodies, who use the "uplift factor" to calculate their provisional tax for the 2000-01 and 2001-02 income years. These new rules will apply to such taxpayers whose annual income for 1999-2000 (or 1998-99 if a 1999-2000 tax return was not filed) is over $60,000. These rules will require taxpayers to calculate their residual income tax for the their 1999- 2000 tax return (or if their 1999-2000 tax return has not been filed, their 1998-99 tax return) as if the new tax rates applied in calculating their residual income tax. In calculating residual income tax, a credit is allowed for the tax withheld at source or paid on that income. These tax credits should be adjusted to take into account the higher tax rate if the income for which the credit is allowed would have been subject to the higher tax rate. The "uplift factor" is then applied to the residual income tax calculated taking into account the new tax rates. The following example shows the calculation that will be required to calculate the 2000-01 provisional tax using the "uplift factor". A taxpayer has filed her 1999-00 tax return, which shows an annual salary of $80,000 (PAYE $21,270) plus business profits of $20,000. Taxable income $100,000 Income tax liability using 2000-01 tax rates ($27,870 $30,270 as per tax return plus $2,400 ($40,000 * 0.06) Less tax credits for PAYE ($21,270 as per tax $22,470 deduction certificate plus $1,200 ($20,000 * 0.06) Residual income tax based on 2000/01 tax rates $7,800 2000/01 provisional tax is 105% of $7,800 $8,190 These rules will apply for the 2001-02 income year for taxpayers who have calculated their provisional tax on the basis of their 1999-00 residual income tax because they have not filed their 2000-01 tax return. For those taxpayers that use the estimation option to calculate their 2000-01 provisional tax, it is recommended that they use the new rates in calculating their provisional tax, to minimise their exposure to use of money interest that may be payable on any under-payment of provisional tax. These provisional tax changes may have implications for trustees of trusts in respect of the calculation of 2000-01 and 2001-02 provisional tax for beneficiaries whose income from the trust is more than $60,000 and Maori authorities with less than 20 beneficiaries. These changes apply to the payment of provisional tax for the 2000-01 and 2001-02 income years. Page 34 Fringe benefit tax Fringe benefit tax rate will increase from 49% to 64% for fringe benefits provided or granted on or after 1 April 2000. Because fringe benefit tax is calculated on the after-tax value of the benefit, it is grossed up to give a rate of 64% (64% = [0.39/[1 – 0.39]]). For those employers who provide fringe benefits to shareholder-employees on an income year basis, the increased rate will apply from 1 April 2000 on the annual value of the fringe benefits provided or granted in the 1999-00 or 2000-01 income year, prorated for the period after 1 April 2000. For example, a company has elected to pay fringe benefits provided to its shareholder-employees on an income year basis (1 July 1999 to 30 June 2000). The annual value of fringe benefits provided is $10,000. The value of the benefits prorated on a daily basis is as follows: Value of benefits provided or granted to 31 March 2000 (subject to tax at 49%) is $7513.66. Value of benefits provided or granted on or after 1 April 2000 (subject to tax at 64%) is $2486.34. Tax return filing The rules setting out which individuals have to file tax returns or receive income statements will be amended to reflect the increase in the threshold at which the top personal tax rate applies (from $38,000 to $60,000). New provisions will require taxpayers to file a tax return or receive an income statement if their total annual income is more than $60,000 and they received interest, dividends, extra emoluments and/or secondary employment income of more than $200 that was taxed at a withholding rate of less than 39%.

Ruined new glad stop stove top
GLASS TOP stove, not glad. Can't edit post name.
New stove. Looks like tenants ruined it under 7 months. Anything I can do here to clean it? I've never seen such damage. :(
This post was edited by artemis814pa on Sat, Dec 21, 13 at 9:17
You have a cleaning job in front of you, that's for sure. Here is an old thread on cleaning glass top stoves.
Here is a link that might be useful: Cleaning glass top stoves
I can't even tell what kind of top it has on it, but I think it's beyond repair. Put in a cheap electric stove, elec, it will prevent that build up of sticky stuff on the cabinets which you will have to clean and it's safer. I was a landlord for 20 plus years and quite frankly I enjoyed it, but not in the situation you are in right now. In situations like that, I took them to small claims court, never got any money but I did ruin their credit for 10 years.
Here are some guide lines to being a landlord. Never take cash, always a check for the deposit and first months rent. Cash is a sign they cannot control their spending. The exception to that is if it is in a slum area. Usually any one who lives in a slum area will not have a checking account. Get at least half a month's rent for a deposit. No pets and do drive byes to check on the condition of the outside and lawn. Collect the rent in person so you can see the inside. Rentals for the ordinary person is the best way to really build a savings for your retirement and to a nicer home. Some people can't handle the work and mess you are faced with now.
I can't even figure out what is on the top of the stove but it looks like the stove has been to hell and back for about 10 years! Are you sure that is a new stove and they didn't take the new stove and haul in some old piece of junk stove? It looks like they scrubbed the burner area with an SOS pad. If the top is cleanable and just to all scrubbed off, then Bar Keeper's Friend is supposed to be used.
Use a single edge razor blade scraper, will not harm stovetop. Remove all debris you can then use a light abrasive and scrub the carp out of it, rinse several times. Then use ceramic top stove cleaner a couple of times dry and buff.
Emma R, I hear you! As a landlord, I have had a few tenants that trashed our place unbelievably. One threw eggs all over the kitchen walls when he had a fight with his wife. Another left about 30 bags of reeking, leaking, stinky garbage in the basement, and apparently had pets which they never let outside, so there was urine and waste all over the floors. Another one actually moved out and left their dog in the house, with no food or water . This is why we finally sold our rental, too hard to find decent people. I think that stove is beyond cleaning, unfortunately. It is not easy cleaning a glass cooktop when there is just a little burned on mess, that one looks like its too far gone. Of course, you can always try if you don't mind the work scrubbing it, you have nothing to lose but your time. Good luck..

Blue Bomber Report Record: 7–11–0
Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Bombers go with Kyle Walters as assistant GM, director of scouting
Winnipeg Blue Bombers general manager Joe Mack says a continent-wide search for a new assistant GM determined the best man was already working in the Bombers offices.
Mack told reporters during a conference call Wednesday afternoon that the club considered 16-18 candidates from across North America for its vacant assistant GM job before deciding to promote special teams coach Kyle Walters to the position.
"A lot of people had extensive experience in pro football in the CFL and the NFL, to be quite frank," said Mack. "But with Kyle, he's been in the league for three years (and) it's a huge positive he's played in the league and been captain of a team.
"And (the fact) he's been a head coach of CIS program just added to his overall value."
It's known that the Bombers also pursued TSN analyst -- and widely respected Canadian "draftologist" -- Duane Forde to take the assistant-GM job. But the Free Press reported last month that the Bombers balked at Forde's salary demands and decided to hire Walters instead at the urging of Mack.
Mack said he intends to involve Walters in all aspects of the Bombers front office, from draft research to negotiating with agents -- the Bombers potentially have 12 free agents this winter and will also likely be a buyer in the free agent market.
Walters does have some experience negotiating contracts -- he acted as his own agent during his playing career.
But asked if he will be grooming Walters to be his own successor, Mack hedged. "I think any good organization ought to be conscious of a success plan. Our intention is certainly for Kyle to grow in the position and be a candidate if that does occur."
Mack said that the final say on all decisions -- including on draft day -- will remain his. "Although everyone will be involved in the process... it will always be the general manager's final decision when it comes to personnel."
Walters replaces longtime former assistant-GM Ross Hodgkinson, who was sacked last month.
Walters -- who had a seven-year CFL career as a defensive back in Hamilton -- joined the Bombers in 2010 after four years as head coach of the Guelph Gryphons of the CIS.
In 2011, he added duties as the Bombers Canadian College Draft Coordinator and on Wednesday added the title of Director of Canadian Scouting to his new assistant-GM title.
"I'm excited to get going," said Walters. "From a Canadian draft standpoint, I'm just planning on building on what we've already been doing the last couple years.
"Instead of spending four to six weeks after the season trying to cram everything in...I'm excited at the opportunity to get out more during the season and be less focussed on coaching and more being able to be at the schools and see practices and kind of spread the workload out throughout the entire year."
Walters was part of the decision-making that went into some very successful recent Bombers draft picks, most notably offensive lineman Chris Greaves and middle linebacker Henoc Muamba. But Walters was also in the room when the club used their fourth overall and third overall selections the last two years respectively to pick receiver Jade Etienne -- who's got one catch in two years -- and offensive lineman Tyson Pencer -- who has yet to play a down in the regular season because of a recurring shoulder problem.
Mack said he still holds out high hopes for both Etienne and Pencer. Walters says his grading of all eight CFL teams' performance in recent drafts has the Bombers at or near the top.
Walters, 39, is married with two children. The family resides year-round in Winnipeg.
Mack said he has already had preliminary discussions with head coach Tim Burke about hiring a new special teams coach, but said that decision won't likely be made until the New Year.

"Greetings, Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada."
Allow me to try to tackle this for a second... First i would get rid of most of the pirate paraphernalia and props, except for what would be needed to imply river pirates such as the ones that were found on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers; secondly, I would put a Mark Twain face character on the fantasmic! stage during the day and have him telling tall tales and entertaining the guest; and lastly regarding fantasmic!, I would retheme it to a more appropriate theme such as the gold rush and the tales of pecos bill.
The fountain of youth really is in Florida... thats why they built Walt Disney World where they did.
"...as long as there is imagination left in the world." Fantasmic! spoon feeds imagination to the crowd. The crowd is not encouraged to imagine. In fact, Mickey angrily takes this imagination away from us. "This is MY imagination!" is what he says, if I recall.
The new Disney is trying so desperately to take the imagination away. So they can build things on the cheap and therefore hopefully their guests will fall prey to it, blindly emptying out their pocket books to sit and be entertained, rather than using their own imaginations to take them to the world of the American frontier and the boundless opportunity that it represented.
"Greetings, Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan Armada."
"Happiness is a Low Water Level"
"Creating magical memories and making Managers cry since 1955!"
Fantascrap! is bread and circuses, nothing more.
Disneyland used to appeal to the sophistocated; the high-brow. You could see it in their advertising even. Learned thinkers would expound on the park as though discussing fine art. Books and essays were written.
You would never see such a discourse on Magic Mountain or Busch Gardens. No essays on cultural importance; no books or theses or museum exhibits. These parks were simply amusemnt places, like the piers of old (and sadly which Disney attempted to emulate in DCA). You don't see much intellectual discussion of the Park today as you did before. In previous days, the place was considered almost high art; something far beyond the simple amusement parks of the day.
As we sit here discussing the merits of this show or that, of the changes that have occured over the years, I would ask those glorifying recent changes to try and look back and see what they've lost in the process, if they can. This isn't about certain people wistful or nostalgiac for the past; it's about knoweldgeable people longing for the intellecualism that used to accompany them to this place of pleasure.
As frogs simmer in the warming water, they forget about what made the pond desireable in the first place. The time is coming when the pot will be boiling--and it looks as though that time is just about upon us.

Fear of the unknown.
They are afraid of new ideas.
They are loaded with prejudices, not based upon any reality, but based on if something is new, I reject it immediately because its frightening to me. What they do instead is just stay with the familiar.
You know, to me, the most beautiful things in all the universe, are the most mysterious.
---------- Post added 09-01-2012 at 08:13 PM ----------
And according to the narration at the beginning of Fantasmic it's not Mickey taking imagination away from the viewer, it's including us, the viewer into his imagination and showing what can amazing things can be done.
Honestly I can't even tell if you are just Trolling at this point because I can't even fathom someone complaining about Disney attaching a new THEME to a THEME park. And don't act like the old Frontier-land was an open book without a backstory to go along with it. Westerns were huge business and Disneyland could bank on that. Kids could emulate their hero's like Davey Crokett and the Lone Ranger, much like kids could emulate Jack Sparrow and Jake nowadays."Welcome to Fantasmic! Tonight, our friend and host Mickey Mouse uses his vivid imagination to create magical imagery for all to enjoy. Nothing is more wonderful than the imagination, for in a moment, you can experience a beautiful fantasy or an exciting adventure. But beware, nothing is more powerful than the imagination, for it can also expand your greatest fears into an overwhelming nightmare. Are the powers of Mickey's incredible imagination strong enough and bright enough to withstand the evil forces that invade Mickey's dream? You are about to find out. For we now invite you to join Mickey, and experience Fantasmic!… a journey beyond your wildest imagination."

We went to WDW in January and I was so happy to get onto their Tom Sawyer Island. The Fort was open and the AA's inside were working. The Escape Tunnel was just as creepy as what I remember from Disneyland's. It was a lot of fun. My grands could hardly be pulled out of the Fort and it was raining. If the Island hadn't closed at dusk, they would have spent a lot more time. I would love to see our Fort Wilderness reopen!

Sometimes Dead Men DO Tell Tales!
I guess it just boils down to my personal belief that Disneyland is a place of escape, which most people agree with, and that Imagineering's role is to create the cues that help a person move to that area of escape, wherever it may be for that person. Imagineering needs imagination to create it, and the guest needs imagination to take the cues and transport themselves there, within their own minds. Imagination is just not the responsibility of one person or another, but of everybody.
It is this philosophy which steers me from most shows and parades at the parks, and is a huge reason that backstory on most attractions interest me next to nothing.
Imagination and creativity are gifts that the corporate side of Disney seem content to stamp out the moment they're spotted.

Capitalism is so yesterday. It's the new year - out with the old, in with the new! This week on Post-Carbon Radio, we start off 2015 on a deep dive into capitalism and the climate crisis with Cynthia Kaufman, author and Director of the Institute of Community and Civic Engagement at DeAnza College. http://www.deanza.edu/communityengagement/ http://faculty.deanza.edu/kaufmancynthia/
Hold on to your seats - it's fast-paced and fun! After a big-picture history of how we got into this pickle, Cynthia brings us lots of good news about how to get out of it. For one, although it's wily and adaptive, capitalism isn't the undefeatable monolith we sometimes think it is, so we don't have to overthrow it all at once to halt its devastating effects. What's more, solutions are already available; what's good for the climate is good for our happiness, and there is plenty of wealth and leisure time to go around. Cynthia uses feminist theory to help us figure out how to start, which is easier once we realize half the economy isn't capitalist, anyway. Don't worry; we didn't miss racism or patriarchy as the colors of the really-existing capitalism we have. We discuss Cynthia's two books, Ideas for Action: Relevant Theory for Radical Change and Getting Past Capitalism: History, Vision, Hope. Some serious theory made useful and hopeful in down-home, common-sense, bite-sized pieces.

Baseball: Cougars' struggles continue with loss to Triton
Walks and hit batters proved to be troublesome for Zumbrota-Mazeppa Monday in a 7-4 loss to Triton.
The Cobras scored three runs in the second on one hit, and two in the third on one hit, with free passes accounting for the rest of the baserunners.
Cody Heitman helped the Cougars' offensive cause, going 1-for-3 with an RBI. Jacob Ugland (1-for-3) and Brady Schoenfelder (1-for-4) also had hits for Z-M.

A long cruise - Valencia, Spain - part 1
Allow me to state at the beginning - I learned quickly to love Valencia. I would go back there now! It is fantastic. Okay, enough of that.
Valencia has a population of 800,000, making it the third largest city in Spain (Madrid and Barcelona are one and two). The city has many old buildings, but the new ones are just as impressive. You will see both in a short time there.
It was originally a Roman Colony, but it has a long and varied history as to how it became what it is today. The climate is mild, never below freezing and less than 50 days of precipitation per year.
This is a view of the skyline as we make our approach in mid-morning on Monday, November 11.
Valencia is the busiest port on the Mediterranean with contain shipping. For many years, shipping was the biggest revenue maker in the city; however, since the 1990s, tourism has moved into a spot to generate as many Euros.
In almost every port we were at in Spain, the topic of unemployment was brought up. Comments were never positive. Most of the college graduates were moving to Germany due to their better position for employment. That leaves those with less education and a higher unemployment rate.
A teaser for the next posting about Valencia. This is a view of some of the modern structures that are close to our pier. You'll see much more of this next time.

The new Audi TT is a two-door, four-seat coupe designed to rival a wide range of cars – from the cheaper Peugeot RCZ and Volkswagen Scirocco right up to the top-end Porsche Cayman and BMW 4 Series. It's as stylish as ever, with a striking exterior and upmarket interior that its coupe rivals simply cannot match.
While it's not the last word in fun, the Audi TT is still great to drive, and will rack up miles in complete comfort should you need to do longer motorway trips. We recommend the brilliant TDI Ultra model in Sport trim, which matches rock-bottom running costs with eager performance and a comfortable ride.
All TTs come with Audi's revolutionary Virtual Cockpit display, which allows the driver to switch the conventional speedometer and rev counter to stereo and telephone controls on a crystal-clear 12.3-inch screen. Leather seats, a DAB digital radio and climate control are standard, even on the basic Sport model. Standard safety kit is decent, and there's plenty more equipment that you can buy once you get to the options list.
Audi describes the TT as a 2+2 coupe, which means that the rear seats are impractical for anything other than very short journeys. They're better used as a place to sling a couple of bags rather than your growing children. But then most people who buy a coupe like this aren't looking for a practical family car.
The Audi TT coupe starts at just under £30,000 for the diesel-engined Ultra Sport model and climbs to over £32,000 for the petrol-engined S line version. Just under £3,000 adds quattro four-wheel drive and Audi's S tronic dual-cluth automatic gearbox.

Landlord's roof repair - noise during day for day sleeper
I work overnight and sleep during day in a top floor apartment. My landlord started these roof repair works and i cannot sleep in my apartment because it feels like they drill and hammer directly to my head. The works will continue for another 2-3 months. Landlord has no other units to offer temporarily - can i demand rent reduction?
I can empathize about the roof repair noise. It's wall shaking unnerving loud. But, day time is the only time those guys can work. I don't know how you could demand a rent reduction, LL can't let it go so the roof leaks and then there is mold/water problems in upper units. He's fulfilling his obligation to keep the premises in good repair.
I don't get why it will take 2-3 months tho? A complete tear off and reinstall on a house can be done in two days (my own house they had a large crew and were done in one full day).
I, too, am puzzled by the 2-3 months. Why would it take so long? But if the roof needs repairing, the landlord does have an obligation to everyone who lives in the building to fix it, to say nothing of protecting his investment in the building.
Can you request that the repairs over your section of the roof be done all at once, so you will have a week or so of loud noise and then the noise will shift to another section of the roof?
Can you wear earplugs? Use a white noise machine? I realize that neither of these will shut out all the noise, or any banging and crashing that is going on, but they might shut out enough so that you can get some sleep.
2-3 months is insane unless you have a flat roof with machinery up there (unlikely). I think there is more to this story, as your LL what's going on.
A typical workday is 8 hours, you're going to have to sleep at a different time. I worked nights for 11 months last year, I slept when I got home from 9Am until 3-4 PM. I live next store to a garden center/nursery so sometimes they made noise with metal carts or machinery, etc. When that happened I would just have to stay awake and sleep later on when the noise quieted down.
I suggest that you ask to break the lease if he cannot accommdate your request. He has to do what he has to do and so do you which is sleep. You should not be denied any right to peace just because you are 2nd shift worker. This would bother me even if I wasn't trying to sleep. MOVE. He will not give you a rent reduction he will let you out of your lease and get another tenant in there to pay full rent before he does that. I have experienced it before.

POSTED: Tuesday, June 15, 2010 - 9:11am
UPDATED: Tuesday, June 15, 2010 - 4:11pm
On tonight's report we're featuring the highest and the lowest scoring restaurants from April 25th to May 1st .
The Little Caesars at 14476 Horizon Boulevard has another one of the highest scores we've ever featured on kitchen cops. It scored a 97. It's rare you find a restaurant that scores so well on an unannounced inspection. Inspectors found just one minor violation: a spray bottle with a purple liquid in it that needed to be labeled for safety reasons.
Moving on now to the Subway at 1746 Alameda. It scored a 91. That's still a very good score. There weren't many problems here either. One of the only violations? Inspectors found dry food particles in a microwave and on a prep table.
Vic's Flautas y Tortas at 308 Franklin also passed inspection with a score of 90. There were just a few minor violations here like a dirty food slicer.
Now on to some of the restaurants that failed inspection, meaning a score of 69 or below.
First on our failing list is Mr. Pancho at 11998 Alameda. It scored a 59. Inspectors said shredded cheese and beef flautas on the buffet weren't being kept cold or hot enough. There was moldy squash in a storage area. The inspector said they found flies throughout the restaurant and dry rodent droppings under a sink. And employees weren't wearing hairnets as required. This restaurant also passed re-inspection. Over the phone a manager told us they have a new owner.
Finally on this week's failing list is Monica's Cafe located at 3130 Lee Trevino. Inspectors gave it a score of 58. The inspector said a number of food items in the refrigerator weren't being kept cold enough. There were flies in the kitchen. A slicer, icemaker, grill and fryer were dirty. And employees weren't wearing hairnets. The inspector said they found Mexican food coloring in the kitchen that was not approved by the FDA. The restaurant also passed re-inspection.

soil erosion
There is soil erosion due to a small creek at the end of our backyard. To fix the problem, we plan to build up the bank using top soil and put a layer of rock over it. Do we need to cover the soil with the cloth? Or, it's better to leave the soil uncovered so that the weeds can grow to hold the soil? Suggestions are appreciated. Zone 5-6, moist to wet, partial sun.
from the info supplied, I would basically build a dike (wall) of larger rocks, boulders,and would backfill. I would start the backfill by using sod, or what have you,green side to the rocks. the grass would continue to grow,holding the soil in place, and the rocks would hold the grass.
You'll also want to address the root cause of the erosion, or all your work may be for naught. Is there more water flowing through the stream than in the past? Did someone upstream do something to change the flow? Slowing down the stream, such as by placing bits of log in the stream, can help stop streams from cutting down and creating canyons. But it depends on the overall factors affecting why your stream is causing erosion, which could depend on a number of things.
