When I read that story I was stunned that so many people had difficulty loading film into a camera without a cartridge format. One person quoted in the story marveled that it could be "loaded in daylight." 120 film had been loaded in daylight for 50 years before instamatic came out! I think pretty much every roll film format can be loaded in daylight. It's not like ordinary people were still fumbling with loading LF sheet film into holders. My very first camera took a 110 cartridge, but manually loading an all manual 35mm camera was not in the least bit difficult to me as a pre-teen.
Sorry if it comes off as too ranty, I just think Kodak really outfoxed itself by trying to reinvent the wheel with these cartridge formats every decade. Sure, the original 126 was hip, but maybe if it wasn't a hit we would have been spared Disc, 110, & APS.
I dunno, I was born in 1980 and I cannot recall ever seeing 126 for sale in stores in the late 80s when I started buying film. In drug stores it was 110 and 35mm, in camera stores they also had 120 and sheet sizes. If 126 was such a hit, why stop pushing it in favor of successor cartridges?
If it was your first camera, then I respect there's room for serious nostalgia, but on the technical merits I don't see serious improvement in the pictures.
I guess my gut reason for not celebrating 126 is that I don't like waste. I feel like I want my camera to retain its utility as long as possible, and it was effectively abandoned by its creator before its time, maybe. I don't care for change for the sake of change, and Kodak seemed to do that a fair bit over the years. All the 126 people have my blessing. I guess you had to be there.

This trip checks in at our Hicks Creek facility, 38100 W Glenn Highway, Glacier View, AK 99674. 96 miles from Anchorage on the Glenn Highway National Scenic Byway.
A popular and affordable wilderness rafting trip.
This river raft trip combines the exciting rapids of the Lion Head run with a seldom-traveled segment of the Matanuska River near Anchorage, Alaska. Enjoy 30 miles of river touring from the Matanuska Glacier to Chickaloon, Alaska.
The trip starts with a run through the Lion Head rapids, and ends with a mellow float along the scenic segment below the glaciers and the magnificent peaks of the Chugach Range. Mid-way, you'll be treated to a fine dinner prepared by your guide. Kick back and allow this area to overtake your senses.
There are opportunities to explore several side drainages for wildlife tracks in this area.
Because of the easy logistics, this trip is very affordable for families and can include youngsters under 12 who are excluded from the whitewater segment and like all our multi-day trips, everything you need for camping is included.
"We would like to thank you again for the 2 day Matanuska rafting trip. You gave us a great time in Alaska. Keep us on your mailing list for a longer trip next year. "

So you can better understand the classification of rivers and decide whether it will be suitable for you, we have listed the six classes as provided by the American Whitewater Affiliation, along with our professional opinion and policy for suitability. (Please note: these descriptions and ratings listed for individual rivers, can vary considerably with differing water levels. Please use the ratings as a general guideline only).
Download our waiver here.
Class I
Easy. Fast-moving water with riffles and small waves. Suitable for anyone age 5 and older, including the physically challenged.
Class II
Straightforward rapids with wide, clear channels. Occasional maneuvering may be required, but rocks and medium sized waves are easily avoided. Suitable for same as class I.
Class III
Rapids with moderate, irregular waves which may be difficult to avoid. Large waves and strainers may be present but are easily avoided. Injuries while swimming are rare. Suitable for those who don't mind getting a little wet, otherwise same as class I and II.
Class IV
Intense, powerful but predictable rapids requiring precise boat handling in turbulent water. Depending on the character of the river, it may feature large, unavoidable waves and holes or constricted passagesdemanding fast maneuvers under pressure. risk of injury to swimmers is moderate to high, and water conditions may make self rescue difficult. Suitable for those 12 and older, in good physical condition, and comfortable with the remote prospect of swimming for self rescue. With NOVA's experienced guides, this level is recommended for first-timers as well as those with prior experience.
Class V
Obstructed or very violent rapids which expose a participant to above average endangerment. Drops may contain large, unavoidable waves and holes or steep, conjested chutes with complex, demanding routes. Rapids may continue for long distances between pools, demanding a high level of fitness. Suitable for those who are comfortable with water, able to swim and in good physical condition. NOVA requires all participants to engage in a supervised practice self rescue river swim ( with lifejacket and dry suit, of course) before the trip to help demistyfy the experience. Minimum age 16 years.
Class VI
These runs often exemplify the extremes of difficulty. Experts only! Rescues may be impossible. This class does not represent drops thought to be unrunnable, but may include rapids which are only occasionally run.

Red Sox Lineup: Jacoby Ellsbury, Shane Victorino out; Daniel Nava in leadoff spot
|07.08.13 at 6:36 pm ET
The Red Sox will begin their series against the Seattle Mariners without two of their everyday outfielders. Shane Victorino remains out of the lineup after leaving a game on July 6 with hamstring tightness, while Jacoby Ellsbury who is a career .286 hitting (with a pair of home runs) against Mariners ace Felix Hernandez, also gets the night off, with Daniel Nava filling in the leadoff spot.
Hernandez (8-4, 2.69) takes the mound in game one of the series. Hernandez has enjoyed success against the Sox over his career, posting a 6-2 overall record with a 3.18 ERA over 85 innings of work.
Lefty Jon Lester (8-4, 4.41) will face off against Hernandez. Lester has pitched well of late, going seven innings in each of his last two starts, with an ERA of 3.21 over that span.

Adult Jazz - Gist Is
Leeds newcomers' eclectic streak shines on experimental debutMore on Various Artists
8 / 10 They formed in Leeds and make low-key pop more exciting with their clever folk harmonies and mind-bending experimentation. No, not Alt-J – this is Adult Jazz, four men whose biggest problem will be working out how to step out from the Mercury Prize winners' shadow. It's all there: the sparse guitars, the minimalist percussion, Harry Burgess' oddly pitched vocals, the vaguely spiritual intellectualism. But 'Gist Is' is more than a poor man's 'An Awesome Wave'. 'Donne Tongue' sounds like Shellac trying to make an afrobeat record, while the spectacular 'Spook' flashes images of Wild Beasts in bed with cult '90s emo band American Football, though 'Springful' takes the cut-and-paste approach too far, with drippy guitar passages slotted awkwardly between defiant blues and glitchy beats. But by the time you reach the gentle conclusion of 'Bonedigger', it's clear Adult Jazz will be inspiring their own army of rip-offs before long.

The location, the staff and the cleaness of the room is perfect! Because it is in the old part of the city, the rooms are little bit small, but is normal for a old city and a well located hotel. The rooms are well furbished and brand new! VERY VERY close to the heart of the tourist line of sultahamed and close to restaurants and eletric buses. Can´t say nothing bad!

Since we went to Istanbul our priorities were at the location and price. So we were positvely surprised about the staff and how clean and nice the rooms were, but we did miss a nice view of the town, but that was no priority for us.

The staff was very helpful but the 3 of us had to change room twice The first room was big and spacious but despite this there was only a very small wardrobe where you could only hang clothes; nowhere to put toiletries in the bathroom - it was underground and next to a very noisy engine. Next room was also underground, no windows and smaller. Third room first floor, still noisy from the engine no space for clothes and NO SPACE for the luggage either so we didn't know where to put our stuff and couldn't walk to the toilet! Excellent wifi, though. Good breakfast. Overpriced. Don't go to a triple room!

Would you buy butter this old?
Saw this at Walmart today, of all places. Picked it up to purchase until I saw the dates. It was packaged back in 2012 with an expiration of 2014!
Seemed like too long for something like butter but what do I know? I live in a small town and my only options for better quality are Kerrygold in the tub at SAMs club or 2 sticks for $6.99 at Kroger. Would you have bought this?
It says "Dairy for Life." I guess they mean it literally. I have no idea, but it seems like a real long time to keep butter. Is it ultra pasteurized?
I saw an episode of America's Test Kitchen in which they recommended keeping all your butter in the freezer until you are going to use it because it picks up the flavors, odors, from your fridge in no time. I haven't noticed that problem, but maybe my sniffer and palate aren't as good as theirs.
I once read in a food facts book you should only freeze unsalted butter. Their reasoning was the salt is in a constant "fight" to thaw the butter, much like road salt thaws ice on a highway, and it alters the texture. Another "expert" says frozen salted butter will keep longer in the freezer (up to 9-months) than unsalted (5-6-months). Yet one more source says it keeps indefinitely at 0-degrees F. Take your pick!!!
I generally use unsalted butter, but I've also frozen salted butter and never noticed a difference.
But back to the question..... I suspect the butter has been frozen or in extremely cold storage - colder than most refrigerators. If the price was "right" I'd purchase it. My stock-up price is $2.00 / pound. Dillon's (Kroger brand butter) had butter for $1.99 / pound a couple weeks ago, so I purchased quite a bit for holiday baking. Countryside Creamery Butter at Aldi is $2.50 / pound, but occasionally will drop as low as $1.90. On the rare occasion I've found Plugra European Style Butter (Sam's Club), I'll buy as much as my budget and freezer space will allow. Such lovely stuff :-)!!!
I also freeze butter all the time, both salted and unsalted and as Grainlady mentions, didn't notice a difference.
So I'd probably go ahead and buy the butter if I needed it and the price was good, I'm also assuming frozen or very cold storage was used for preservation.
Is it ok to re-freeze the butter? Here, butter has a date giving the user a couple of months. I can see on the label that it says to keep it in the freezer and to put it in the fridge before use. So, it should be frozen for those dates to apply. It sounds all wrong that they've defrosted it.
I always buy lots of butter when it's on sale and freeze it--with never a problem.
Personally? I won't buy any perishables at Walmart. With their grocery store being more or less a sideline, and the quality of most of the employees I see working there, I really don't trust them to properly handle foods that have to be correctly stored--I buy all my produce at a local market, and go to a real supermarket, deli or Amish market for meats, dairy, and frozen foods. Just not worth taking the chance, IMO. I'd be in your shoes--seeing that the butter was packed over a year ago, I would want to know where it was all along the way--which isn't going to be available to you. No, I definitely would NOT buy that butter at Walmart

Pastor Gene Giguere Judas Iscariot and the Process of Deception (Study Sheet GS006) 1. Judas was the son of Simon Iscariot (John 6:71, 13:26). Some scholars believe that the name Iscariot is from an Aramaic word meaning 'false one.' 2. Judas was numbered among the original twelve Apostles (Matthew 10:2-4, Mark 3:13- 19, Luke 6:13-16). 2.1. Jesus' decision to choose Judas was a conscious one covered with an entire night of prayer to the Father (Luke 6:12-13). 2.2. Jesus was well aware that Judas would be His betrayer (John 6:70). 2.3. Jesus had a two-fold purpose in calling the Apostles: 2.3.1. That they might be with Him, and 2.3.2. That He might send them out to preach with delegated authority (Mark 3:13-19). 2.4. The Apostles numbered twelve - one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel which rejected Jesus. This seems to signify that He was choosing for Himself a new instrument with which to reach the world with the gospel. 3. After delivering a sermon that was hard to hear, Jesus announced that one of His Apostles is a devil [Greek, a slanderer]. He was referring to Judas (John 6:70-71). 3.1. This is the first hint that Jesus would be betrayed by one of His own. It was made more than a year before the Crucifixion. 3.2. As a result of Jesus' message, many who had followed Him followed Him no more (John 6:66). Judas, however, remained to betray Him. 3.3. Although both Peter and Judas betrayed Jesus, there are important differences between the two incidences: Peter Judas Saw Jesus as an end Saw Jesus as a means Betrayed out of impulse Betrayed by choice Motivated by fear Motivated by greed/money 3.4. Judas had the same opportunity as the other eleven to know and serve Jesus. 3.5. Note that Jesus chose the twelve (John 6:70-71), i.e., it was a conscious decision and His betrayal did not catch Him off guard. 3.6. The word devil is only used three times in the New Testament when not referring to Satan himself. The other two uses of the word in John refer unmistakably to Satan. 4. Judas Iscariot was appointed as the group's treasurer, yet he was dishonest and often stole from the moneybag (John 12:6, 13:29). Money appears to have been a chief priority in the betrayal of the Master: "'What are you willing to give me to deliver Him up to you?' And they weighed out to him thirty 1 pieces of silver. And from then on he began looking for a good opportunity to betray Him." (Matthew 26:15-16) 5. When Jesus was anointed by Mary at Bethany, Judas - among others - bitterly complained at the waste of such costly perfume (Matthew 26:6-13, Mark 14:3-9, John 12:1-8). While some present were obviously motivated by concern for the poor, Judas' motive was purely selfish (John 12:6). 5.1. This took place six days before the crucifixion. 5.2. There were two anointings: 5.2.1. In Galilee, recorded by Luke (7:36-50): The 'woman' is called a 'sinner.' The host is a Pharisee. The host is critical of the woman. 5.2.2. In Bethany, recorded in Mark, Luke and John: The 'woman' was 'Mary,' Lazarus' sister. The host was 'Simon the Leper.' The disciples, led by Judas, were the ones critical of Mary. 5.3. Contrary to popular belief, John never says that this took place at Lazarus' house. 5.4. The 'nard' is from the root of the nard plant native to India. It was extremely costly; this amount constituted a workingman's yearly salary (John 12:3). 5.5. It was probably extracted from a long-necked alabaster flask by snapping off the thin neck and pouring out the contents. 5.6. Who exactly complained at the Bethany anointing? 5.6.1. Matthew: 'the disciples' 5.6.2. Mark: 'some of those present' 5.6.3. John: 'Judas' 5.7. Apparently none of them understood the significance of the unique event they were observing. 5.8. Whatever Judas' motivation was, at least some of those present were motivated by righteous indignation and concern for the poor. 5.9. Jesus remarked that their opportunities to express love and devotion toward Him were running out; opportunities to help the poor would continue to exist. 5.10. Guests usually reclined on divans with their head near the table and their feet away from it. This would make the anointing very easy to accomplish. 6. Through a process of deception, Judas eventually turned his will completely over to the Devil. 6.1. It was Satan himself who "put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him" (John 13:2). 6.2. There is no question as to the fact that Judas was possessed by Satan (Luke 22:3, John 13:27). 6.3. By the time of the Last Supper, Judas had completely given over sovereignty 2 of his soul to the Devil; he no longer had a choice in the matter (John 13:27). 7. Judas began bargaining with the religious leadership and agreed to betray Jesus for thirty pieces of silver (Matthew 26:14-16, Mark 14:10-11, Luke 22:3-6). 7.1. This was a fulfillment of prophecy (Exodus 21:32, Zechariah 11:12-13). 7.2. What motivated Judas to such treachery? 7.2.1. Perhaps he began to feel that Jesus was acting less and less regal and more and more like a defeatist on his way to an early death. He may have sought to distance himself from the impending trouble that would certainly befall the group (and maybe make a little money at the same time)! 7.2.2. He may have been wounded from Jesus' rebuke at the anointing at Bethany (John 12:1-8). 7.2.3. Pure greed (Matthew 26:15-16). 7.3. Thirty pieces of silver was a paltry amount: 7.3.1. According to the Jewish Law, it was the price that one would have to pay to compensate for a slave that had been accidentally gored to death by an ox (Exodus 21:32). 7.3.2. Because both Judas and the Pharisees lightly esteemed Jesus, the price decided upon was small. 7.4. Mark tells us that the Pharisees had been looking for a 'sly way' to arrest Jesus and avoid a riot (14:1-2), they were therefore delighted to find Judas so willing to betray his Master (14:11). 7.5. It was Judas, not the religious leaders, who took the initiative to betray Jesus! 7.6. Luke tells us that, in betraying Jesus, Judas was careful to avoid crowds (22:6). 7.7. Traitors have always been among the most despised members of society (i.e., The Devil and Daniel Webster). 8. The imminence of Christ's betrayal permeated the atmosphere of the Last Supper (Matthew 26:20-25, Mark 14:18-21, Luke 22:21-23, John 13:2, 10, 11, 18, 21-30). 8.1. In this context, Jesus declares that not all of His Apostles were 'clean' [i.e., 'saved'] (John 13:10-11, 18). 8.2. Matthew 26:20-25: 8.2.1. Each of the Apostles including Judas take their turn asking, "Surely not I, Lord." 8.2.2. Jesus' answer to Judas was truthful, but would not remove the ambiguity: "You have said it" (i.e., "If you say so!"). 8.2.3. The 'one who dipped his hand' was not a sign. All of them had done this. It simply meant that a close friend would betray the Master. 8.3. Mark 14:17-21: 3 8.3.1. "One of you!" came like a bolt out of the blue. Is it even possible? Yet He who cannot lie had said it! 8.3.2. According to Middle Eastern custom, to betray someone that you had eaten with was the highest form of treachery. 8.3.3. The disclosure caused all of the disciples to question their own moral strength and they all began to ask if they were the one who would betray Him. 8.3.4. The prophecy of Psalm 41:9 enters in here: "Even my close friend, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted up his heel against me." 8.4. Luke 22:21-23: 8.4.1. In 22:34, Jesus announces that Peter will deny Him three times. Do the other Apostles think that Peter is the scoundrel? 8.5. John 13:30: 8.5.1. "And it was night." Judas stepped once-and-for-all into the darkness from the presence of Jesus, who is the light (John 1:4-5). 8.5.2. Luke 22:53: "...but this is your hour and the power of darkness." 9. Jesus, identified by Judas' kiss, was arrested (Matthew 26:47-56, Mark 14:43-50, Luke 22:47-53, cf. John 18:3-12). 9.1. The kiss was a prearranged symbol of identification. The olive grove would be dark which could make positive identification difficult. 9.2. Judas may have first led the arrest party to the Upper Room and, finding it empty, led them to the olive grove where Jesus and the Apostles spent much time. 9.3. Judas' greeting ("Greeting, Rabbi!") was meant for the crowd; Jesus' greeting ("Friend!") was meant for Judas alone (Matthew 26:49-50). 9.4. The arrest party was armed with clubs and swords; perhaps they expected resistance (Matthew 26:47, Mark 14:43, 48, John 18:3). 9.5. Judas broke with longstanding protocol by speaking before his Master. All ties of respect were utterly gone (Matthew 26:49-50; Mark 14:45). 9.6. Greek word for 'kiss' is a compound word - kata + phileo - and is emphatic. It can, therefore, mean any of the following: 9.6.1. A passionate kiss, 9.6.2. A repetitive kiss, or 9.6.3. A prolonged kiss. 9.7. Note again: Jesus was not taken by surprise! He could easily have escaped — which reinforces the concept that no man took His life, but He freely laid it down (John 18:3-12 cf. John 10:11, 17-18). 9.8. Jesus calmly confronted His captors, which thoroughly unnerved them (John 18:4-8). 10. Judas, filled with remorse, returned the blood money to the chief priests in an attempt to 4 undo his treachery. When they rejected it, he threw it onto the temple floor and ran out (Matthew 27:3-10). 10.1. The chief priests used the money to buy a burial field for strangers (Matthew 27:7). Since the field was purchased with Judas' money, he - in effect - bought it (Acts 1:18). 10.2. These events were the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy (Zechariah 11:12-13, Matthew 27:9-10). 10.3. Judas was not saved! He "felt remorse" (Greek, metamelomai), but never experienced a true "change of mind" about who Christ is (Greek = Metanoeo). 10.3.1. Metamelomai simply implies an emotional response, not a thoughtful acknowledgment of one's need for salvation. 10.3.2. For a further discussion of these words see: Thayer, J.H. The New Thayer's Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, Hendrickson Publishers: Peabody, Ma., 1981, p.405 (under 'metamelomai'). 11. Judas committed suicide after a pseudo—repentance (Matthew 27:3-5, cf. Acts 1:18-19). 11.1. How did he die? 11.1.1. According to Matthew: "...he went away and hanged himself" (27:5). 11.1.2. According to Acts: "...falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his bowels gushed out" (Acts 1:18). 11.1.3. How are these two accounts reconciled? There are two good possibilities: Since he hanged himself during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, no Jew would have wanted to defile himself by burying a body. His body would have been left hanging, would have decomposed quickly in the hot sun and would have fallen onto the rocks below to its messy end. He may have hanged himself from a branch stretched over a ravine. If the branch broke either during or after the suicide it would have plunged him to his messy end. 12. Matthias was chosen by the other Apostles to replace Judas (Acts 1:20, 25-26). However, Matthias was not God's choice. Matthias is never mentioned again. God had chosen Saul of Tarsus (Paul) to replace Judas as the twelfth Apostle (Acts 9:15-16, Romans 1:1, 1 Corinthians 1:1, 2 Corinthians 1:1, Galatians 1:1, Ephesians 1:1, Colossians 1:1, 1 Timothy 1:1, 2 Timothy 1:1, Titus 1:1). 5

Rwanda ditches French

It looks like Rwandan school children will soon be trading their copies of Le Petit Prince for Paddington Bear. Rwandan education officials announced this week that French will no longer be the first language of education — all lessons will be in English by 2011.
It would seem that this latest shedding of French culture by Rwandan officials comes too close on the heels of last summer's controversial accusations to be taken as anything but an insult by France. It was just last August that an independent commission set up by the Rwandan government implicated 33 French military and political leaders in the 1994 genocide and called for them to stand trial. Rwanda's current government, moreover, is led by former rebels who fought and ousted what they saw as French proxies.
Rwandan officials, however, were quick to add that this latest move is not a spiteful jab at France. Vincent Karega, Rwanda's trade and industry minister, said the motive was purely economic: "English has emerged as a backbone for growth and development not only in the region but around the globe." In addition to the English-speaking investors now coming to Rwanda, the country also relies on trade with places where deals are made in English, like East Africa.
Rwanda may be onto something here: The country's state minister for education has already noted that English textbooks are much, much cheaper than the French alternative.

Brander Sauvignon Blanc Cuvee Nicolas 2006
Brander - California - United States - Santa Barbara - Santa Ynez Valley
The green skinned grapes of the Sauvignon Blanc varietal had their origins in Southern France, where they are still widely grown and used for many of the excellent young and aged white wines the region is famous for. Today, however, they are grown in almost every wine producing country in the world, and are widely revered for their fresh and grassy flavors, full of tropical notes and refreshing, zesty character. Sauvignon Blanc grapes thrive best in moderate climates, and ripen relatively early in the year. This has made them a favorite for many wineries in the New World, where they can still produce healthy and high yields in the earlier part of the summer before the temperatures become too hot. Too much heat has a massively adverse effect on Sauvignon Blanc, as the grapes become dull in their flavor, and the wine produced from them loses all its unique character and high points. As such, Sauvignon Blanc farmers have had a lot of trouble from global warming and climate change, as they are being forced to harvest their crops increasingly earlier in the year when it is cool enough to do so.
When it comes to New World wine regions, it is widely agreed that many of the finest wines are grown and produced in California. The long stretches of coastline and the valleys and mountainsides which come off them are ideal areas for vine cultivation, and for over a century now, wineries have found a perfect home in the hot, dry state, with many of the wines produced here going on to reach world class status. The state is greatly helped by the brisk oceanic winds which cool the otherwise hot and dry vineyards, which hold mineral rich soils covering vast areas and featuring many established wineries. The state is split into four main regions, the largest by far being the central valley which stretches over three hundred miles in length.
Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.
Santa Barbara is home to many of California's most sought after wines, with a powerful reputation for superbly crafted, old world style big, flavorful and complex red wines. The white wine industry in the region is growing, too, with many wineries within Santa Barbara successfully experimenting with several classic white wine grape varietals. As in much of California, Santa Barbara benefits from the blazing west coast sunshine, coupled with cooling Pacific Ocean breezes and fogs, which help to temper the grapes and slow the ripening process, thus ensuring more flavor and aroma in the resulting wines. Although Santa Barbara is a relatively young wine region, it is home to many wineries who are extremely dedicated when it comes to demonstrating just how good their terroir is, and how characterful their region's wines can be.

Oh, yes, that's the chilly loch all right. Conveys the whole sense of the place; good job! (And I'm not going to say 'Where's Nessie?', because you would punch your way through the computer & clobber me.)

No, someone else had a beautiful B&W that was similiar to yours. i just thought iit was odd. xo

Thanks, Al. Many eminent scientisists have spent a considerable amount of time with very expensive equipment trying to find a trace of Nessie. The only people to claim seeing it were, apparently, on their way home from the pub. What does that suggest?

Script A horror comedy film opening based on a disease formally known as INTS, how it develops and its effects on society. Written by: Niamh Quinlan & Leah Finch Characters Fondler - The main character role, he plays the villain however he is what makes the comedy element. He takes him self too seriously, man who reveals his true colours at night, effected by the disease INTS. Dan – An average boy, 19 years old. He works in an office by day but little does he know his future is about to change, he will become a victim of …. The Fondler. Setting The alley – the alley is dark and mysterious gives the sense of rising tension, and the feeling that some thing serious is going to go wrong. The bed room – the bed room is used after a rough setting to give the idea of comfort to the audience, showing that we are going to be playing with their emotions a lot. The Car – This is to add to the comedy element but also to disorientate the audience as it is unexpected. The Bathroom – This is a tactic I used to show the invasion of privacy, making the audience feel uncomfortable. Narrator: Some where in this city, there is an evil that sleeps. Lies and Waits. By day he could go by a professor, sir or madam. But when the sun goes down he shows his true from… That man is me …the fondler. Music starts to play as you see the fondler getting dressed, the music then suddenly stops as we see a shadow of the fondler making uncomforting noises. We then see dan walking up the alley, suddenly he is pulled in to the bushes. Fondler: (not visible) fondle fondle fondle fondle fondle fondle Dan: arghhhhh Dan is then pulled further in to the bushes as the they start to shake, after short period the fondler then runs off in to the light Fondler: FONDLER !!!! falls over Dan then gets up and runs away from the bushes, crying and holding his buttocks. Dan suddenly wakes up in his bedroom. Dan: ahhh ahh it was just a dream, babe babe babe .. pats figure beside him The fondler is revealed in the bed beside him Fondler: FONDLEEE ! Dan: ARGHHHHH ! Dan suddenly wakes up in his car, he has fallen asleep at the wheel. Dan: ahh ahh, it was just dream. Just a dream. Why do I keep having the same scary dream! Dam you fondler dam you! … ahh at least it was all just a dream Rests head on the back of his chair as the fondler pops up behind him. Fondler: FONDLEEE ! Dan: ARGHHHHH ! Dan wakes up in his bedroom again, this time not in a panic. He walks in to the bathroom and begins to use the toilet. We see dan staring at some thing although we don't know what it is, the camera slowly turns to reveal the fonder sitting in his bath tub. He looks again but the fondler Is not there, so he walks to the cupboard to get a towel and the fondler steps out. Dan: what do you want from me? Fondler: Well…..

does anyone here workout with the kettlebell? If so, which excercizes do you do the most? I just purchaced the 3-1 bell, and I find that some of the routines on the DVD are just too hard to do.
I'm wondering if any of you use the kettlebell, and which moves work for you.
Thanks for your reply! How many times a week do you do this, and does this just work your bi-cepts and tri-cepts?
Most of the videos I've seen online are too complicated for me, but your routines sounds pretty easy. I just added 5lbs to my bell for a total of 8. It doesn't sound like alot, but it feels like it after a few reps.

When Herschend Family Entertainment acquired the Harlem Globetrotters last year, the Atlanta-based operator of major theme parks, aquariums and other attractions nationwide saw the potential of the venerable basketball and entertainment brand. Long before there was Dude Perfect, there was the Harlem Globetrotters—and as the Globies, as fans call the trick shot-spinning basketball stars, near their 90th anniversary in 2016, Herschend is helping take them to the next level.
Winter is high season for the Globetrotters, whose multiple squads are just beginning their intensive schedule of appearances at arenas big and small around the country. That's the opposite of high season for Herschend, which also owns and operates iconic Middle American parks including Dollywood in Tennessee and Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri.
That was just one of the advantages for Herschend of tapping into the Globetrotters' brand and mystique.Continue reading...

After Whitney Houston's unfortunate death last Saturday, anyone turning on a TV or radio got to hear her signature tune, "I Will Always Love You," countless times, whether it was Jennifer Hudson singing it on the Grammys or Amber Riley performing it, apparently coincidentally, on the Valentine's Day episode of Glee on FOX.
Of course Houston had a slew of other massive hits, such as "How Will I Know," "The Greatest Love of All," and "I Want to Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)," but the fact that one tune kept spilling out of the speakers over and over again didn't speak well of her brand's ability to stick around for generations to come.
Metro reports that Houston, whose funeral is taking place on Saturday (with a live-stream for fans via the Associated Press), has a chance to "have a legacy that can outlive our collective memory of her somewhat tainted past" of drug and alcohol abuse. That legacy may lie in the hands of marketing pros "who specialize in the act of 'sanitizing' the image of a deceased celebrity."Continue reading...

The old cab and bed heading to the scrap yard!
If you already have an account with us, please use the login panel below to access your account.
I may be off the deep end, but I think the plan is to put my 2LT drivetrain into a 90-95 4runner. The twist is that its' gonna be a straight axle swap too. I found out that the 4runner is based on a regular cab short bed frame. I found a deal on a 85 4x4 22r straight axle truck with a trashed body last week. The frame and axles are good plus it's already got a nice 4 inch lift done right with a drop pitman arm, etc. Spring packs up front with blocks in the rear. I already stripped this truck down to the frame this past weekend. I am now seriously hunting a 2nd generation runner to bolt to this frame. The location of the frame mounts in the rear of the truck frame will have to be relocated to match the runner body mounts. I've already removed them. The front 6 mounts should be the same from truck to runner from what I have researched. The 4unner gas tank and mounts may have to be used since they are lower for the body tub. The horeshoe crossmember on the frame will have to be lowered a few inches. Now the hunt is on for a CLEAN CHEAP V-6 runner that has a dead engine. Here is a pic. of the straight axle frame and the engine donor truck behind it. Comments are welcome!
The old cab and bed heading to the scrap yard!
sweet... sounds kinda familiar! I'm just about done a 1st gen swap of the same nature: 88 body on 85 frame with 84 2LT. Where are you located? I remember seeing a potential donor for sale in BC. I'll try and find the ad for you, unless you're in Florida or something!
Actually I'm in Ga. I hope to find something local or semi-local. 4running, what kind of problems did you run into with the body bolting up? I'm guessing you had to relocate some rear frame mounts just like I will have to............and you also had to lower the "horsehoe" crossmember in the center of the frame. Thanks
Made a little more progress today on the project. My 85 frame wasn't in as nice of shape as I had orignally thought. I cleaned off some of the dirt and found it had the typical rust issues on the inside of the passenger side of the frame. Can't believe I didn't spot it before I bought the truck. I'm sure I could have talked the guy down a bit more. All that caked on dirt fooled me I guess! I welded in some plate to strengthen it back up. Brake lines also apprear to be leaking from "cancer" as well. Not real major issues..........I'm sure it won't go super smooth through the whole project. Pic. included
darn that factory Toyota cancer...
Actually, apart from the "expected" un-expected details, my swap was very basic. The SFA frame I picked up was from a 4runner, the same body style as the 88. All the mounts lined up perfect, as did the tranny, engine mounts, etc. Even after reading that this is a 'bolt in' swap, I was still surprised how much it really was.
As far as issues, one I'm taking care of right quick is the extra weight in the front end. The stock springs were bagged to begin with, but now with the diesel they are reverse arch and about an inch of travel. I have been getting a few quotes on new springs with extra capacity, and hope to have a set in the next week or two. Brake lines are always a bugger, but I stole enough parts from the wrecker to put a complete system togeter. I bypassed the rear prop. valve (took it right off) and put one on from a Celica (just like the 2wd pickups) under the master cylinder. The power steering lines were another hangup, but again the wrecker proved very useful. I have a local pick-a-part here that is very reasonable when you buy lots of junk all at once, so I snatched whatever I thought could come in handy and put together enough bits to make it work. Sure I'd love to order all the correct stuff from the dealer, but it's just not practical. This truck is intended as a 'wheeler' anyway.
Found a decent 91 4runner I think. I'm gonna check it out this weekend and possibly buy it. It's got a V-6 which is not a big deal to me. It is however a 5 speed, which is what I've been hunting for. I need the clutch pedal setup already installed versus gettting an automatic runner. Pulled the 2LT, trans., and transfer today from my rusted out donor truck. This puts me a bit closer to finishing the conversion. Here's a few pics.
And another pic.............
Made some more progress today. Installed the 2LT drivetrain into the lifted straight axle frame. It sure is easy sticking a motor, trans., and transfer in when there is no body to get in the way. Just need one more major piece to the puzzle..........the 90-95 4runner body!
It's not perfect but it will have to do. It's a 1991 SR5 with a knocking v-6. A BAD knock at that! Overall it's decent. I was hoping for cleaner interior but this is cleaner than most of the old toyotas I usually mess with from the 80's. Got a few problems with some of the windows and the mirrors. I hope it's just the switches and not the motors. I guess those should be the least of my concerns. The biggest headache is gonna be finishing this conversion. I'm just glad I found a body for this swap. I was honestly tired of searching the want ads every day. It was sapping my strength...........lol. I'll keep posting pics. of my updates with this swap. Here is one after a 250 mile round trip to purchase the runner. Any comments from the board?

Mumbai terror sentence ignites death row debate
Debate over the death penalty has been reignited in India by the Supreme Court's decision to uphold the punishment handed down on the only surviving terrorist from the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
Pakistani-born Mohammed Kasab was one of 10 gunmen who laid seige to Mumbai for nearly three days, killing 166 people.
Supreme Court lawyer Nitya Ramakrishnan told Radio Australia's Connect Asia the death penalty is "an extreme measure and a fundamental revulsion against society."
"Death penalty is the exception and life imprisonment is the rule," Ms Ramakrishnan said.
If his punishment is carried out, Kasab would be the first person executed in India since 2004.
Rights activist Seema Misra says India's law, which states that the death penalty can only be given in "rarest of rare" cases, is very subjective.
"We need to be a society that recognises that we can't give death to people and I think we need to stop doing so," Ms Misra said.
In India there are currently 52 death row prisoners waiting for a decision on their mercy petitions from the government.
A total of 135 countries have abolished the death penalty in law or in practice.

This paper formalizes qualitative test of 3D frictional form-closure grasps of n robotic fingers as a problem of linear programming (LP). It is well-known that a sufficient and necessary condition for form-closure grasps is that the origin of the wrench space lies inside the convex hull of primitive contact wrenches. We demonstrate that the problem of querying whether the origin lies inside the convex hull is equivalent to a ray-shooting problem, which is dual to a LP problem based on the duality between convex hulls and convex polytopes. Furthermore, this paper addresses a problem of minimizing the L1 norm of the grasp forces balancing an external wrench, which can be also transformed to a ray-shooting problem. We have implemented the algorithms and confirmed their real-time efficiency for qualitative test and grasp force optimization
