Bought two of these - Very cool - Better than the picture - Very good value and as usual excellent service
Nice Lamp!
Viktor Garcia from Palm Harbor, FL – Verified Buyer
It looks white on the website but the lines on the actual lamp are more towards beige. The lines on the shade are see-through and they allow the light to shine through. Very nice lamp.

HEP C w/Low back pain L5 S1. Currently on oxycontin 40mg but it's not working anymore.
Answers (2)
5 Jun 2011
Hey buckskin,
You may do alright with a morphine based pain killer such as MS Contin (morphine sulfate) as it is primarily excreted via the kidneys. Although, as with any drug, caution should be taken to guard against unanticipated accumulation if renal and/or hepatic function is seriously impaired.
Based on personal experience, I have a friend with Hep C and she had a morphine pump for many years for pain. MS Contin comes in a slow release pill that would offer around the clock pain control. Might be worth discussing with the doctor.
Best wishes,

CRITIC'S NOTEBOOK; Marshaling His Talent To Battle His Fame
By A. O. SCOTT
Published: July 3, 2004
It seems fitting that Marlon Brando, an artist rightly credited with single-handedly bringing a new dimension of realism to American screen acting, can be remembered through a series of offhand, apparently unconscious gestures: Vito Corleone in ''The Godfather,'' idly stroking a cat's belly; Terry Malloy in ''On the Waterfront,'' playing with Edie's glove; Colonel Kurtz, at the end of ''Apocalypse Now,'' splashing water on his face in his firelit cave.
These moments, and dozens more like them that flicker through every one of Mr. Brando's performances, even in the oddest roles in the worst movies, are more than just mechanical applications of Method. They help to transform our detached, ocular relationship with the man on screen into something like a physical connection. They are the emblems of his presence.
But Mr. Brando, whose high, thin voice sometimes seemed strangely at odds with his body, was not only a groundbreaking actor. He was also, for 50 years, a movie star, and he is associated with more catchphrases than a room full of pumped-up, dumbed-down action heroes. Chances are that even if you haven't seen the movies, you have heard or repeated a snatch of Mr. Brando's dialogue:
''I coulda been a contender.''
''Bring me the butter.''
''Never go against the family.''
''The horror! The horror!''
''Johnny, what are you rebelling against?''
''Whaddaya got?''
What he had was a talent unequaled by any other actor of his generation, and his rebellion against it -- his early zeal to discover its limits, his later contempt for the public identity it imposed upon him -- made his long career both exemplary and frustrating.
The film critic Stanley Kauffman once wrote, in a review of ''The Young Lions,'' that Mr. Brando ''now has the opportunity to become the first American film actor to achieve greatness.'' It is worth noting that this was in 1958, after ''A Streetcar Named Desire'' and ''On the Waterfront'' and ''Viva Zapata!,'' when the work that would, in retrospect, be seen as the very sum of Mr. Brando's greatness was behind him.
Mr. Kauffman's hopeful, forward-looking assessment of Mr. Brando's gift came at a time when that actor's star, and certainly his box-office luster, was in eclipse. (In between ''On the Waterfront'' and ''The Young Lions'' came ''Guys and Dolls,'' ''Teahouse of the August Moon,'' ''Sayonara'' and Desirée,'' in which Mr. Brando, a 5-foot-10 Nebraskan who had studied with Stella Adler at the Actors' Studio, squeezed himself into the person of Napoleon Bonaparte.)
But looking back at ''The Young Lions,'' a well-meaning, uneven World War II melodrama in which Mr. Brando played a German soldier with an uneasy conscience, or at ''One-eyed Jacks,'' an underrated western that was the only film he ever directed, you can see that his range as an actor was growing -- was perhaps outgrowing the possibilities that the movies of the era were able to offer.
By 1963, Mr. Kauffman would view Mr. Brando's prospects with anxiety: ''Perhaps he is indeed the quintessential American actor of our time, still snared in outmoded theatrical concepts which are further entangled with the pseudoquality of American 'superior' pictures. If this is true, his is not a career but a case history.''
More than 40 years later -- after Sacheen Littlefeather and Larry King and Connie Chung, after ''Songs My Mother Taught Me'' and ''The Island of Dr. Moreau'' and ''The Score'' -- those words have the sad ring of prophecy. Much will be written about Mr. Brando's weight, his eccentricities, his political enthusiasms and his troubled family, but if his later years can be taken as a case study in dysfunctional celebrity, his career also reveals a deeper and more general disorder.
Being a great actor can make you a movie star, but becoming a movie star can be the unmaking of an actor's greatness. Mr. Brando intuitively understood this, and repeatedly sent his talent into battle against his fame. He was both an icon and an iconoclast, thus unusually and paradoxically self-destructive. He often professed to hate acting, and his best performances at once make nonsense of this claim and prove its accuracy. Hatred is, after all, an intense and unhappy form of passion, and the drive toward honesty in an art form founded on fakery is likely to produce cynicism and disappointment.
James Harvey, in his astute book ''Movie Love in the Fifties,'' argues that Mr. Brando's most memorable screen moments are ''scenes of pure, painful, powerful loss. And so it almost seems appropriate, in an unhappy, ironic way, that he gave us a botched career in the end -- or at least an unfulfilled one.''
How could it have been otherwise? Or, rather -- since it seems perverse to describe a career that includes two Oscars and at least a half-dozen inarguably immortal films as botched -- how could we think otherwise? Mr. Brando's triumph is always a kind of self-defeat. American cinema loves outcasts, rebels and misfits, but above all, it values winners. And Mr. Brando was always bored with winning, and pushed his art, as far as he could, in the other direction.
The honesty that was the foundation of the Method actor's creed continually collided with the Hollywood imperative to sentimentalize. Mr. Brando's work in the 1960's, the most misunderstood and underestimated phase of his career, is an episodic rendering of this conflict. ''The Chase'' (1966), ''Reflections in a Golden Eye'' (1967) and ''Burn!'' (1969) all try, in different ways, to extend the social and psychological realism of the previous decade while remaining within the conventions of ''superior filmmaking.''
They also contain three of Mr. Brando's subtlest and most unnerving performances -- as a conscience-bedeviled Southern sheriff, as a closeted homosexual military officer, as a 19th-century English colonialist -- each one an exploration of the frustrations, corruptions and compromises of power.
If rebellion was the younger Mr. Brando's great theme, power was the preoccupation of his maturity. Is there a more complete, persuasive and ultimately enigmatic portrait of patriarchal authority than Vito Corleone? Has the desperate vulnerability that underlies the male drive toward sexual domination ever been explored with the raw precision of ''Last Tango in Paris''?
Those films made Brando a movie star once more, after which he condescended, from time to time, to remind us what a great actor he could be -- partly by refusing, ever again, to act like one.

Bay Area Bites Guide To 5 Movie Theaters Serving Food and Alcoholic Beverages
Date night just got easier with this list of five local theaters that serve more than just popcorn and Junior Mints.
Broccoli rabe, also known as rapini, is one of those vegetables people seem wary of cooking at home. Whenever I buy a bushel, it seems there's always someone standing next to me asking what it is and how I'll cook it. They usually have a curious yet skeptical look on their face, as if to say "that looks mildly interesting, but I'm sticking with the chard." If you only shop in a grocery store, you may never have even seen it for sale as it's mostly available at farmers' markets and Asian produce stores. But if you find yourself in one of those places, I highly recommend buying a batch. Just look for the plant with dark spiky green leaves, small florets (often with tiny white flowers) and medium-sized stalks. It looks a bit like a dandelion greens / broccoli hybrid.
I've been reading a lot about the rising cost of food. The general media is painting a fairly dim picture of the current state of food prices and accessibility, and Jennifer Maiser's recent articles on BAB helped enlighten us about the politics behind these stories and the reactions to them. Anyone who has walked into […]

Ferdinand L Quintos
Does A Person Have A Soul?
Does a mortal person have soul,
to this I have my own answer
based on event yet I recall
that I will tell this time and here.
Long time ago, one midsummer,
on a lazy warm afternoon,
father sent me and my sister
go take the horse where grass has grown.
She towed the beast by its tether
along the trail we often trod,
gleefully, I brought up the rear,
stick in hand to use as prod.
What ensued next I do not know,
I felt myself, on air, floating,
turning my gaze to things below,
I saw mother running, wailing.
Mother picked up a limp body
and held it close to her bosom,
just then I saw the boy was me,
helped by people, she took him home.
I continued to float, up, up, and up
borne by the wind in growing swirl,
then suddenly it let me drop,
felt my self fall in dark tunnel.
As lights came back at tunnel's end,
felt my fall break, my dive ended,
when, slowly, my eyes opened
I found myself laid flat on bed.
I looked up and saw sad faces,
seeing mother, I gave a nod,
then I heard ecstatic voices,
"He is alive, thanks be to God."
After few days, to me was told,
the horse I pricked with my stick,
it kicked up and knocked me out cold,
prize I got for one naughty trick.
Years have passed, but I keep thinking:
who was it that on air floated,
who viewed the scenes then unfolding,
who pain no longer affected?

|St. Louis Post-Dispatch Joe Williams Surrender, earthlings. It's the Guardians' world and you'll be happy to live in it.
|Film.com Jordan Hoffman [A] blend of classic sci-fi fare and current pop-culture irony is what rockets "Guardians" into the stratosphere.
|Arizona Republic Bill Goodykoontz It's easy to get carried away with movies like this, which lend themselves to fanboy hype. It's not a perfect movie. But it is one that is hugely enjoyable, bears repeated viewings and will be as funny in 10 years (or 50) as it is now. And that's pretty swell.
|Chicago Sun-Times Richard Roeper It's filled with a kind of giddy energy that leaps off the screen. It's corny, it's dopey, it's sincere, it's romantic, it's thrilling and it leaves one anticipating the next adventure of these heroic goofballs.
|Rolling Stone Peter Travers Guardians of the Galaxy does the impossible. Through dazzle and dumb luck, it turns the clichés of comic-book films on their idiot heads and hits you like an exhilarating blast of fun-fun-fun. It's insanely, shamelessly silly – just one reason to love it.
|Miami Herald Rene Rodriguez Gunn makes this huge entertainment accessible to the converted and the neophyte alike, and he has only has one goal: To send you out of the theater with a fat smile on your face. Mission accomplished.

|Washington Post Michael O'Sullivan It manages the trick of being both an unironic sci-fi action-adventure flick and a zippy parody of one. It's exciting, funny, self-aware, beautiful to watch and even, for a flickering instant or two, almost touching.
|Entertainment Weekly Chris Nashawaty The film's a giddily subversive space opera that runs on self-aware smart-assery.
|Portland Oregonian Marc Mohan A perfectly irreverent counterpoint to movies that take their superheroes a bit too seriously.

Texans, lawmakers rally for anti-toll road legislation
AUSTIN — Dozens of Texans — mostly from the North Texas and San Antonio areas — rallied on the Capitol steps this morning to call for end to the state's reliance on toll roads.
Calling toll projects a form of double taxation and holding signs that said they are a "war" on lower income residents, the crowd was joined by lawmakers who have filed a litany of bills that take aim at toll-based construction financing.
Sen. Don Huffines, R-Dallas, said the state transportation department needs to keep providing highway lanes to keep up with population growth, but needs to do so with existing revenues and not tolling components.
"Good roads is a fundamental government function," he said.
North Texas will soon be home to the nation's largest network of managed toll lanes, which are being added to virtually every major highway project in the region. Those tolled lanes are placed alongside free main lanes. Their toll rates fluctuate based on congestion and can spike much higher than the flat, per-mile rate used on roads that are completely tolled.
Money from the managed lanes is typically used to reconstruct and update existing free lanes. Once the tolls pay off initial construction costs, they typically remain in place to cover maintenance and more reconstruction and additional managed toll lanes in the same corridor. Such projects typically use a mix of money from the state highway fund and lump sum payments borrowed against projected toll revenues.
"It's a huge rip off," said Terri Hall, who organized the event for Texans for Toll-free Highways.
Lawmakers have filed more than 120 bills related to toll roads this session. Gov. Greg Abbott and Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst have both said they want to better fund the Texas Department of Transportation so it doesn't keep adding tolling components to state highways.
Three Collin County lawmakers have filed a package of bills that would provide TxDOT more funding from existing revenue streams and limit the amount of time a road could be tolled, among other things. Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said this morning that their push is based off a groundswell of toll opposition in a county inundated with toll roads.
"We owe it to the people of Texas to listen and act aggressively," Leach said.
After the rally, attendants were encouraged to go speak to their respective senators and representatives about specific bills they want them to support or oppose.
"Once you get the bills filed, that's only half the battle," Hall said.

Kojima looking for studio to remake Metal Gear Solid
In a roundtable discussion, designer Hideo Kojima expressed his interest in a remake of Metal Gear Solid using his studio's fancy new Fox Engine. Can you imagine what that would look like knowing what we know about Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain? Interestingly (and thankfully), such a project would be undertaken by an external studio.
According to Gamereactor, Kojima is currently looking for a team and believes some of the game's mechanics would need updating alongside the modern visuals. Some of you are going to be excited by this proposition, while others aren't going to see the point. Where do you stand?

For footwear, the best thing to wear is a sneaker or close-toed shoe. Anything open-toe, children still have a chance of catching their foot on the ground as they ride. And the most important thing for a child or adult is to wear a helmet.
It should be snug but not too tight. A good way to tell is to put it on and clip it. It shouldn't move side to side freely. If you move your head, it shouldn't shake, it should move with your head. Then you know it fits correctly. It should be about half an inch to an inch above your eyebrows and it should come down the same distance on the back of your head.
Every person should have a bell and lights. I don't know about in other states, but here in New York City, you can't ride at night without lights on the front and back of your bike—white on the front and red on the back, just like a car. And you have to have a bell. You can't ride without a bell. Those are the two biggest safety things you should have. You should have reflectors and things like that, but at minimum you have to have lights and a bell.
Every time you want to check the breaks to make sure they're working right. Check the seat to make sure that the post is tight and it isn't going to move or slide when you're riding. Check the air pressure in your tires to make sure that it's right. Then you just want to look at the bike to make sure that nothing looks out of place. There are some obvious things—if you see a crack or a dent, that would be concerning—but you're just looking for something that doesn't look right. Not everyone has the mechanic ability where they can look at it and say, "Oh, I know what that is." But if something doesn't look right, it usually stands out to someone. But the big things that you want to make sure are going to work are the seats, the tires, and the breaks.
That's different for everybody, believe it or not. The clearest sort of format for that is when you're pedaling at the bottom of the cycle—so when your leg is extended as much as can be—you're just about straight-legged, but not everybody is comfortable with that. Some like their leg a little more bent, some like their leg a little bit more straight, so it's really a preference of what you want.
The biggest thing from a size standpoint is to make sure that you can stand off the seat flat-footed on the ground comfortable on the frame—you don't want the frame too tall where it is digging into you. You also don't want it too low where you have to have the seat post way too high because there's actually a point where the seat post is too high and its not safe.

Granite Vanity Tops
Explore your options for granite vanity tops, and get ready to add a stylish and extremely durable vanity countertop to your bath space.
By: Sean McEvoy
Granite is widely considered the best choice among vanity top materials because of its attractiveness and durability. If you're considering granite vanity countertops, you'll want to browse a host of options and investigate their pricing, quality and maintenance requirements.
Granite is incredibly durable and presents a high-quality, natural surface that's easy to clean. Because of these advantages over other materials, granite is generally the most expensive option for bathroom vanity tops. There are many types of granite to explore, however, at various price levels. Additionally, granite is available in an almost infinite number of styles and colors, from matte to glossy, solid to flecked or speckled—so you'll have plenty of choices to match the style of your bathroom.
In terms of pricing, you can expect to spend $50 - $60 per square foot for materials and installation for basic granite vanity tops. This type of granite will not be of the highest quality—it may not be as durable than higher-quality granite, and it may be susceptible to scratching or chipping. It will still have a beautiful appearance at a budget price, however.
For better granite, you can expect to pay $60 - $70 per square foot. This granite type will be slightly more durable, and it will be more resistant to scratching and chipping.
Finally, on the high end of the scale, you can expect to pay around $70 - $100 per square foot for granite vanity tops that are just about guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Armed with a disposable camera and digital recorder concealed inside a small red purse, London-based photographer Natasha Caruana went on 80 dates over a year with married men she found through a dating website for those looking to have affairs.
Caruana shot these images of her dates without permission although the identity of the men is carefully concealed and only a few frames were taken per meeting so as to not arouse suspicion.
Caruana explains that 'Married Man', like some of her other work, is centered around "love and life of the everyday".

Cascade is the leading voice for free-market environmentalism in Oregon. What's that, you say? Isn't that concept an oxymoron? Not at all. Improved environmental quality goes hand-in-hand with economic prosperity, and both flourish when property rights are respected and the rule of law enforced.
The modern-day environmental movement has been dominated by complex, top-down regulatory schemes such as the Clean Air Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The advocates of these programs have claimed that pollution is a "market failure" that can only be controlled through governmental intervention. While it's certainly true that some environmental benefits have been realized through regulation, it has come at a much higher cost than would have been the case if market-based techniques had been used.
Moreover, command-and-control schemes are frequently arbitrary in the way they are applied, and therefore create classes of legislatively-chosen winners and losers. Many people, and in some cases entire communities, have been devastated through the harsh application of the Endangered Species Act and the federal Superfund law; and in some cases pollution has actually worsened as a result.
In the days when pollution was rampant, one arguably could justify regulations because even the most ill-considered government program was likely to do some good in a target-rich environment. But now that every major pollution source is regulated and millions of smaller sources have been cleaned up as well, the costs of preventing the last increments of pollution will be very high. This challenge requires that we rely much more on incentives than regulation.
Fortunately, during the 1980s the concept of free-market environmentalism emerged, primarily through the work of the Property and Environment Research Center in Bozeman, Montana. That work demonstrated that property rights, markets and incentives could be used to achieve environmental objectives, while also promoting economic opportunity and wealth creation. Free-market environmentalism, or FME, is now gaining credibility as a legitimate alternative to regulation.
By Ken Ivory
The federal government continues to control more than 50% of all lands in the western United States. Locked up in these federally controlled lands are more than $150 trillion in mineral values and more recoverable oil―in Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming alone―than in the rest of the world combined. Failed federal forest policies prevent harvesting timber, which would improve forest conditions and wildfire resilience, provide useful consumer products and renewable energy feedstock, and revitalize rural schools and communities. FBI criminal activity alerts now warn that terrorists are encouraging the use of wildfire in fuel-laden federal forests as weapons for jihad.
There is no good reason for the federal government to retain control over these lands and resources in states like Oregon. We in the West have, in good faith, simply tolerated the federal government's delay in honoring its more than 200-year-old obligation to transfer title to these lands for so long that now most people assume there must be some valid reason the federal government controls our lands and resources.
But there is none. At a recent Continuing Legal Education seminar to several dozen lawyers, a law professor (who is frequently quoted as saying it is "clearly unconstitutional" for states to take action to secure the transfer of title to their public lands) displayed an annual average precipitation map indicating that the federal government retains control of western lands because they are "arid."
The second reason he gave was that the founders of the western states simply gave up their lands as a sort of ransom for the privilege of statehood, citing half a sentence in the statehood enabling acts: "… forever disclaim all right and title…." The funny thing is, this same half sentence is word-for-word the same in the statehood enabling acts of almost all states east of Colorado, where the federal government did dispose of their public lands.
In fact, for decades, as much as 90% of the lands in Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Indiana, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida were kept under federal control. Then, one man had the knowledge and courage to rally citizens to compel Congress to transfer title to their public lands. His name was Thomas Hart Benton, a Democratic U.S. Senator from Missouri featured in President John F. Kennedy's best-selling book Profiles in Courage.
The statehood enabling acts promising to transfer title to the public lands are the same for all states west and east of Colorado. It's been done before―repeatedly and recently. And, returning these lands to state control is the only solution big enough to fund education; better care for our lands and forests; protect access; create jobs; and grow local, state, and national economies and tax base.
If we fail to stand up and take action to secure state and local control of our lands and abundant resources, it will not be because it is illegal, unconstitutional, or impossible. It will only be because we―and the local, state, and national leaders we "hire"―lack the knowledge and the courage to do what has been successfully done before.
Do your local, state, and national leaders know why there is a difference between the way the federal government has handled eastern and western lands? Have you inquired what specifically they are doing to compel Congress to honor the same statehood promise for our children and our future that Congress already kept with Hawaii and all states east of Colorado? Have you asked them what groups or influential individuals they will bring to the effort? Have you asked them what specifically you can do to help?
Now is the time to let our representatives know how transferring federally controlled lands back to the state can vastly benefit Oregon's economy while preserving and using wisely our wealth of natural resources.
Ken Ivory is president of the American Lands Council and a member of the Utah House of Representatives. He was a guest speaker on this issue for Cascade Policy Institute in November 2013.

James in OK
I have tried many dual sport tires and have grown tired of changing them every 1000 to 1500 miles. I have tried them all and thought I would give Kenda a shot. After 1100 miles they are looking promising. 75% of the time I am on the pavement where these tires shine. Great wrap around tread lets you scrape the foot pegs in the twisties. The block design works really well in the rocks of southeastern OK and the CO Rockies. I'll be interested to see how far these things go!Read All Reviews

How to position a greenhouse
What is the best way to orient a greenhouse. Should it have its ends facing North and South so as the sun rises it shines on the longest section and then when it sets it shines on the opposite side. Or should the ends be positioned east and west. I guess with the 10X12 HFGH its close to a square so it doesn't matter but what if its longer than it is wide? I'm in Massachusetts so do I want to limit the amount of northern exposure area?
At your latitude, approx. 42 deg., and the size and dimensions of your greenhouse,the orientation is not particularily important. Large, long, structures located between 25 deg and 40 deg. N are generally placed N/S, while those above 50 deg N are generally oriented E/W. It all has to do with shading produced by the structural supports.
