So they're making a figure of Hanso?!
I did not have the privilege of growing up in the late 1960's when the Batman TV series was on the air. For me, as a child of the eighties, the re-runs on Nick at Nite served as my introduction to what would become my favorite hero of all time. Through the years, loyal fans of the original and irreplaceable Adam West series continue to pine for mere crumbs of this spectacular enterprise. Finally, this year, Mattel introduces the 1966 Batmobile and 6 inch action figures. Now, there is nothing to do but jump for joy. We have only been waiting for 47 years.
These weren't the only Batman toys to premiere at Toy Fair this weekend. Here is a sample of few others that caught my Bat-Eye. The NECA 1/4 Scale Batmans are also a particular favorites. Fear not, Mattel reveled the 1960's Joker will have a mustache and it will ever be so lightly painted over.
The NECA 1/4 Scale Batmans by NECA Toys.
He wasn't ready for the Con, Kimberly told me (via Mattel). First questioned I asked too. Hopefully he will also have a Surf Board and Board shorts version!
I missed a picture and just added it. It is now the first one with all the characters to be in the line. Hopefully there will be more.
It's been a while since I've bought any figures. This may be the one to grab.
Bob, I have to admit the Michael keaton Batmon costume looks more badass than the Bale costume. It has a more Classic look.

NHL – National Hockey League - productsOverview of the NHL The National Hockey League (NHL) is an unincorporated not-for-profit association which operates a major professional ice hockey league of 30 franchised member clubs, of which 24 are located in the United States and 6 in Canada. Headquartered in New York City, the NHL is widely considered to be the premier professional ice hockey league in the world, and one of the major professional sports leagues of the United States and Canada. The Stanley Cup, the oldest professional sports trophy in North America, is awarded annually to the league playoff champion at the end of each season. NHL Season The National Hockey League season is divided into an exhibition season (September), a regular season (from the first week in October through early to mid April) and a postseason (the Stanley Cup playoffs). During the regular season, clubs play each other in a predefined schedule. The Stanley Cup playoffs, which goes from April to the beginning of June, is an elimination tournament where two teams play against each other to win a best-of-seven series in order to advance to the next round. The final remaining team is crowned the Stanley Cup champion. National Hockey League History The league was organized in 1917 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada after the suspension of operations of its predecessor organization, the National Hockey Association (NHA), which had been founded in 1909. It started with four teams and, through a series of expansions, contractions, and relocations, the league is now composed of 30 active franchises.

Ambient heat may play an extremely small role, but I think you'd be hard pressed to detect it. Pizza is 99.9% conduction and radiation. The ambient heat probably does play a role in pre-heating the hearth, but, once the pizza goes in, you're pretty much talking heat conducting up from the hearth and heat being radiated down/from the side from the dome and fire.
Craig,Anything in particular that makes you think ambient air temperature made the difference versus more saturated mass, smaller coal pile, a more heated flue, ect.? One thing that jumped out to me in the pictures was the coal pile is small, but every last coal is undergoing intense bright combustion and giving off a ton of radiant heat.

Oregon is ranked No. 2 in all the major polls, but Florida State, which beat Clemson on Saturday, benefited from its high ranking by the BCS computers to earn a .935 BCS score, barely better than the Ducks' .932 average. Florida State is ranked No. 1 by the BCS computers while Oregon is No. 3.
Alabama is comfortably atop the initial BCS standings with a .984 average.
The top three have a significant lead over No. 4 Ohio State, which has a BCS average score of .855. The Buckeyes are followed by No. 5 Missouri.
Stanford is No. 6 in the BCS, making it the highest-ranked one-loss team at this early stage.
Miami-Fla., Baylor, Clemson and Texas Tech round out the BCS top 10.
The two teams atop the BCS standings at the end of the season will meet in the national championship game. This is the last season for the BCS. Next season, a four-team playoff will determine the national champion, with the four participating teams to be selected by a committee.
The BCS standings are based on three criteria: the USA Today coaches poll, the Harris poll and the BCS computers, each of which counts one-third. The AP poll is not part of the formula.
The highest ranked BCS team that is not from an automatic-qualifying conference is Fresno State at No. 17, one spot ahead of Northern Illinois, which earned a berth in the Orange Bowl last season.

Only for big calves I ordered these based upon the Aerosoles site stating the circumference as 13". When I got them, they were HUGE in the calf. I looked further and have since seen 13", 14" and 15" stated as the circumference depending upon the site. If you are looking for boots to fit slim legs, don't bother with these. They're cute and the foot size is true. They don't look particularly cheap either, but they run very large in the calf.

Great Deal!! I looked for boots on and off the internet. I worried about buying boots on the web because of the sizing issue. I liked the look and price of the boot on Overstock and couldn't find anything comparable at any store-on or offline, so I took a chance and went with Overstock. It turned out to be a wise choice. The sizing is right on and what you see on Overstock is the boot that you get. The quality of boot is better than the price. I felt that I got a great deal for what I was looking for. I'd recommend for sure.

I always worry about the fit of boots but I took these out of the box when they arrived and have worn them everyday since then. They are soooo comfortable and I love their look. They can do dressy and they can do casual. Very cool boot! I have the black and now I'm about to order the brown.

Great Product, Great "O" Service I purchased these boots for my wife for Xmas. She was very excited to see what I had given her and she immediately placed the boot onto her foot. She walked around the house with a strained smile on her face, when I asked what was the matter she said with great reservation (as if her incorrect response would mean I would have her send the boots back) she indicated that the one boot was a little snug but that she would "break them in." You see, my wife has a terrible time fitting into shoes, she falls in love with the style and then forces her foot into the shoe or boot, then talks herself into keeping them after they don't properly fit. Anyway after I performed a foot check through the boot, I said, "honey something seems wrong," she pulled her foot out of the boot and to her surprise realized the boot still had the plastic toe insert in the tip; this is what was causing the discomfort, which I remind you was something she was willing to live with. After removing the insert, she replaced her foot back inside the boot and voila! The boots fit beautifully. Now she not only loves the look of the boots but also the feel. Great job "O" Your shipping was right on target and the boots arrived as demonstrated. Great price too.

Tips on Wearing Riding Boots
You don't have to be an equestrienne to wear riding boots with style. You just have to have a few key pieces in your wardrobe to wear with these classic women's boots. Whether you just want comfortable boots for fall and winter or you're online shopping for fashionable boots that make a statement, riding boots are a great choice. This guide will help you look great in whichever ones you choose.
Top 5 Women's Boots
When autumn leaves start to fall, some women are eager to store the sandals and introduce boots back into their wardrobe. Women's boots provide a great way to stay comfortable, warm and fashionable all at the same time. Depending on the outfit, some boots work better than others. To assist you in your boot shopping this year, here is a list of the top five women's boots.
Best Boot Styles for Bigger Calves
Boots are a stylish addition to any woman's wardrobe, but women with bigger calves may find that certain women's boots do not fit around their legs. Fortunately, there are many fashionable women's boots that accommodate wider calves. You just have to know which styles to shop for.
Best Boots for Petite Women
When boot season arrives, it can be tricky for petite women to find women's boots that don't make them feel stumpy. But there are actually several styles that will flatter a petite frame. If you're 5'3" or shorter and you want to seem taller -- or even more authoritative -- here's what to look for when you're shopping.
Best Womens Boot Styles for Evening
You've probably heard the phrase, "If the boot fits, wear it." But with so many styles of women's boots available, shopping for them can get a little frustrating. Whether the women's boots are for a night on the town with friends, a work-related gathering or just something to show off during dinner with the family, these choices are sure to add elegance and variety to your wardrobe.
Best Warm and Stylish Boots for Winter
Once it gets colder, warm and stylish women's boots are a necessity, especially when the snow covers the ground. Even practical boots meant for ice and snow can be fashionable and comfortable. Whether you are looking for women's boots to wear in the snow and rain or just to keep your feet warm on chilly days, here are a few styles that will complete your winter wardrobe.
Best Reasons to Buy Women's Boots at the End of the Season
Your fall shopping plans likely include at least one pair of women's boots. The fall may not, however, be the best time to stock up on your favorite cold weather footwear. Buying women's boots at the end of the season will not only save you money, but may also give you a foot up in fashion. The following tips will help you shop for clearance boots at the best time of the year.
Tips on Wearing Black Boots
They can look classic or edgy, and a pair of women's black boots is a style essential. But with so many options available, you won't want to limit yourself to one pair of basic black boots. Try one of these styles and different ways to wear them.
How to Care For Hiking Boots
Caring for your hiking boots will prolong their life and make them more comfortable during long hikes. Both men's boots and women's boots provide support during the most challenging of climbs. Hiking boots are designed to protect your feet while you're enjoying the outdoors, and proper maintenance will determine how much comfort and protection they can offer. Neglecting your hiking boots can cause an unpleasant time on the trail, but a little attention to detail will ensure you have the safest and most comfortable footwear possible.
Top 5 Rain Boots
For splashing in puddles or simply navigating slippery sidewalks, you can't beat rain boots, especially ones in your favorite colors and patterns. Update your collection of boring brown and black cold-weather boots with bright women's rain boots and patterned tights. Once you've got the outfit and great plaid rain boots, you just need a fierce thunderstorm and a great song to sing. Read on for the top 5 rain boots that'll have you puddle-jumping all night long.
How to Wear Ankle Boots
One of the most popular and easy-to-wear women's boots is the ankle boot, which hits right at the ankle and can be worn with many different outfits. If you make smart wardrobe decisions, ankle boots can visually lengthen your legs and add a chic edge to an otherwise ordinary outfit. Pay attention to the silhouette when you wear women's boots and thoughtfully select slimming pieces to create a streamlined outfit.
Sheepskin Boot Fact Sheet
Sheepskin boots have been a growing fashion trend since the early 2000s; however, they have been around for a lot longer than that. Sheepskin boots were worn for centuries before today's modern trend. They were used primarily for warmth and comfort by people with rural occupations, such as sheep shearers in China, Australia and the Arctic, where the raw materials are readily available and easily accessible. Today, sheepskin footwear is widely popular among men and women of all ages; the boots provide warmth, comfort and style. Here are some facts about sheepskin boots.
Snowboard Bindings Buying Guide
Whether your terrain of choice is park or powder, there is almost nothing that compares to snowboarding on good snow. And good snowboarding gear is essential for your best performance. You might have some new snowboarding boots with the boa lacing system and a new snowboard with reverse camber, but if you don't have good snowboard bindings, your board and boots can't communicate to carve the way they should. Spend a little time getting more familiar snowboard bindings, so you can buy a set to take your riding to the next level.
Tips on Buying Snowboards
You've bought comfortable boots. You've picked out some cool bindings. Now you just need to pick out your snowboard. Choosing a snowboard is easier than selecting your other snowboard gear. Buying a snowboard is all about matching your snowboarding style to a board that is designed to let you ride at your best.
Best Styles of Men's Boots
From dressy to casual, there are plenty of men's boots to go with various wardrobe options. Men's boots can be worn year-round, whether you're walking around in the cold or wearing dress boots for a night out. Some boots are even acceptable to wear to the office. Follow these tips to find boots appropriate for every occasion.

Motorcycle Gear Buying Guide
Owning and riding a motorcycle is a lot of fun, especially with the right motorcycle gear. Once you have the basics -- your bike, motorcycle helmets and motorcycle jackets -- there is more available to make your riding time even more enjoyable. In this motorcycle gear buying guide, we will show you how to buy motorcycle gear that will serve you well, whether you're a motorcycle commuter, tour rider or sports enthusiast. The gear we will focus on includes motorcycle clothing items, such as motorcycle gloves, rain suits, boots and pants, and motorcycle accessories, such as motorcycle covers and bags.
Tips on Buying Snow Boots
With winter rolling in and the snow piling up outside, snow boots can save you from a set of frozen toes. Warm, dry and stylish, the right pair of cold weather boots will keep you and your feet happy all winter long. How do you know which boots are for you? The following tips will help you understand winter boots so you can shop with confidence.
How to Choose Ski Boots
Although you might think that skis are your most important piece of ski equipment, ski boots have more to do with performance than the skis or bindings. Ski boots that aren't right for your feet can prevent the transfer of pressure to the ski and contribute to a lack of control. While your boots will never be as comfortable as sneakers, the correct boot will be a lot more comfortable to wear for a full day on the slopes.
Best Styles of Booties for Evening
Ankle boots, or booties, are a versatile fashion option. They can be worn with a variety of outfits for many different occasions, from a lavish dinner at a four-star restaurant to a company party. Pick out evening-appropriate women's ankle boots that add flair and class to your outfit by following a few simple guidelines. Try embellished booties for a trendy look. Women's booties embellished with chains, big buckles, laces and buttons can work great when paired with a short skirt. The exact embellishment you choose is up to you, but no matter what, these extras will lend an edgy touch to your evening outfit. Match the color of your embellishments with the tone of your jewelry for a truly polished, put-together look. Pair women's ankle boots with tights or wear them bare-legged, depending on the formality of the occasion. While black booties tend to go with anything, you can experiment with different colors of embellished booties to give your look a boost. Booties that are a little slouchy also look great with jeans or a skirt. Leather booties look great for every occasion. Leather booties work well for a classic, chic and monochromatic look. Booties without adornments, such as buckles, bows or chains, can be patent leather (for a dressy look), suede or faux leather. Leather booties can be matte or shiny and often come in lace-up styles as well. This works best when you want your style to be understated but still want to add sophistication to your look. Coordinate your ankle boots with your outfit or pick another color to make your clothes pop. Wear them with a knee-length skirt or paired with a pair of dark jeans. You can also wear them with a tunic and thick leggings for a warmer, comfortable look. Open-toe booties are stylish and fashion-forward. If you really want to try something different, give open-toed booties a try. These will lend the most edge to your look. Pair these with a short skirt in order to make them pop. If it's cold outside, you might want to wear these open-toed booties with a pair of matching tights to stay warm. These ankle boots work well for going out to a club or rock concert, but they can also complement a party dress or a pair of jeans for a dressier event.

TE articles assumes that the markets shall be a the bidding of what is said by the Eurocrats. The volatility shall continue because the risk/reward (long term) is not there for bonds. There are alternatives with EM bonds. Meantime, traders will not fight whoever that owns the printing press (it can kill 'short trades').
Until there are signs of sustainable investments in growth and debt reduction viz other economies, Euro bonds and equities are short term plays.
Putting Spain and Italy in the same category may sound simplistic but if one adds the increasingly probable chance of adding the euro zone's second biggest economy, indebted France, in this category then things will definitely turn nasty.
A brief stumble it might be, but the story confirms the inability of some key players of the euro crisis to catch the fleeting moment. Spain's PM may regret not having asked for EU money at the right time, when the credit risk fell so sharply and quickly that a solution could be on the way.
He played down the role of the E.C.B. as a game changer and was even quoted as saying that declining spreads suggested less concerns about the country's financial health, so there was no need for a bailout.
Admittedly, Spain's credit default swap was cut in half also as a result of its efforts for austerity and reforms, so it may avoid coming back to those unsustainable borrowing costs, even as this scandal overwhelmed the ruling party.
Things may turn nasty if the larger Mediterranean neighbor wakes up in three weeks' time with a new Parliament that undermines or reverses what the technocratic government has done in 12 months. Putting Spain and Italy in the same category may sound simplistic, but Rajoy's early reaction is making the comparison somewhat sensible, as he holds out against a surging political campaign supposedly orchestrated by hostile media. What a difference with Nordics (thumbs up to the current Economists' cover story).
What a surprise. Austerity is failing. The policy of supporting a failed banking system while imposing massive hardship on the middle class of an economy is failing. Then you add in the problems that all of these countries have with aging populations where you have more and more people aging while less and less work. Now, you add in the problem that all of these countries share the same currency with no centralized taxing authority.
The country next in line for all of these problems is France; the only question is when will the markets catch on. Germany has its own problems too; it suffers from an overleveraged financial system. Now, add to that the issues of falling population that Germany suffers (as does the entire EU) and Europe is screwed.
Does anyone else think this thing is gonna end in war between all of these countries?
I have been amazed at the recent complacency. There is no sign that the Germans understand the Euro's situation, or that they would proceed appropriately if they did.
How many decades should the Germans be required to support the PIIGS?
How many decades should the Germans get bailed out by having an artificially cheap currency?
Germany and the PIIGS have the same currency, so it can't be cheap relative to other Euro countries. As for the rest of the world, most Europeans are complaining that the Euro is overvalued.
Maybe Germany should just sign up all Greeks on the German welfare roles and be done with it.
Germany has basically taking up the export led growth model. If they left the Euro and started issuing the Deutsche Mark again, the newly issued Mark would be much stronger relative to all of the other countries. I actually think it could take a lot of those export led businesses headed on the road to bankruptcy.
I also don't see Germany as a place with good fiscal decision making; I actually think the US is in better shape. Germany has some major population demography issues and its current model for growth seems unsustainable. Germany has had a fertility rate of less than 1.5 since 1975 while the German banking system (along with the European banking system) is more than 3 times as leveraged as the US's banking system.
How long will "PIIGS" end up supporting the bought deals of gambling German banks is the question you should of asked
When the Germans loaned to the PIIGS, the credit rating of those nations was very high. If loaning funds to people with good credit ratings is gambling, then every activity in life is gambling and the word means nothing.
Bought deals are not loans so yes it was gambling.
Do I need to explain what a bought deal is and how it applies?
Or would that mean nothing?
Yes, explain what a "bought" deal is.
An investment bank will purchased the bonds directly from the issuer before selling them to the markets. This is known as a bought deal. The investment bank effectively underwrites the issue, thereby adopting the role of the issuer, as opposed to acting on thier behalf as an agent. The investment bank will negotiate terms and a price with the issuer, which will usually be a discount to the market price, thereby compensating the bank for the additional potential risk.
From teh issuers point of view, the risk that the deal not not be well received by the market is reduced and passsed onto the investment bank albeit for a price.
From the investment banks point of view, bough deals are usually priced at a larger discount to the market, therefore may be easier to sell. The primary disadvantage is that if it cannot sell the bonds to the market, then it could be left holding them as in the case of invesmtent banks in Ireland. If the market price falls below the issue price, the investment bank will loose money. They will also tie up capital.
Germany banks took the risk that the Irish property bubble would contuine and when it burst they were left holding Irish bonds.
So yes they did gamble and no its not a "loan"
In economics, a person buying a bond is a lender, so yes, the Germans loaned money to the Irish so they could buy houses. And if the bonds the Germans bought were rated as investment grade, then at the time the Germans were not gambling, unless you mean by "gambling" anything that anyone does.
Nevertheless, that has nothing to do with the discussion. Yes, the German banks lost some money on their investments, but Germany is not in financial trouble. The PIIGS governments are near financial collapse (which has nothing to do with bought deals) and people want Germany to loan them more money.
So when a person goes into a shop and buys a bag of oranges they are in fact only lending?
Then when the oranges go rotten after they were bough they go back to the shop keeper to get a refund?
That a very basic breakdown of what you are saying
No. I'm saying there is a difference between oranges and bonds. People don't eat bonds. They use the money from the sale of bonds to buy things, like houses. And they don't get to keep the money from the sale of bonds; they have to pay it back with interest.
Your analogy with oranges would work if the seller of the orange had to pay back the buyer with interest.
"sale of bonds"
Germany bought these bonds in the hope of a guaranteed yeild upon redemption
Thank you very much.
You explained my point.
Every lender does the same thing. Everyone who lends money to others expects a guaranteed yield; that's the point of buying bonds instead of equity.
Printing money to solve your debt problems: worked wonderfully every other time it has been tried,
This is starting to look a lot like April 2012, the markets are losing confidence in the stop gap and the the upward cycle is becoming self reinforcing..
In the absence of market funding the ECB will be compelled to monetize Spain's entire debt, that will cause real inflation that will eat away at the value of bonds,
If the markets lose faith in the ECB's ability to make Spain's problems go away, than there is nothing the ECB can do...
Don't wait for the scandal to end
Elect Berlusconi again
Let the far right smash some heads
Let the ECB tighten again
Duuuumb ways to fail
"A return to euro-zone growth"
Did you mean "stagnation"?
There's nothing stagnant in the eurozone. Half of the eurozone is seeing pretty decent growth rates (Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Finland, Belgium, France, Slovakia, Slovenia, Cyprus, Malta and even Estonia have all done much better than the US over the past 5 years in terms of PPP GDP/ capita), while the other half (i.e. Greece, Spain, Italy, Portugal & Ireland) is experiencing a 1930s style Great Depression as government cuts, collapsed investment bubbles and draining of capital from businesses are shutting down productive economic activity.
Given these contrasting dynamics, "stagnation" isn't a sensible prognosis. Either government cuts slow, banking problems are fixed and capital flows back into productive businesses in the worst affected countries, which would produce robust per-capita growth rates in the eurozone... or we'll see perpetuation of the status quo (continued depressions in a few countries, but respectable per-capita growth in the others).
Austria, the Netherlands , Slovenia, Slovakia, etc. have experienced negative growth ! In 2012! And they're also experiencing cuts! So please be more thorough in your analyses.
Thank you :-)
In 2012, most developed countries (including the US, UK and Japan, but certainly not including Slovakia) have experienced at least a quarter of negative growth.
Yes, 2012 has been a worse year than most for many eurozone countries. Still, looking at the whole 5 years since 2007 (longer time periods are far more valid for discussion of economic policy), most eurozone countries have experienced better per-capita GDP outcomes than the US. A small number of countries account disproportionately for the loss of economic activity.
The trend is broadly improving for most eurozone countries, and foundations look more solid in many eurozone states than here in the UK or in Japan. The open question is whether/ when the crises states will exit depression (most importantly, that requires stable, effective & competent domestic government in those countries - as Ireland demonstrates; at the eurozone level, banking union needs to accelerate).
"draining of capital from businesses are shutting down productive economic activity."
Irish exports actually grew last year.
True - and Ireland is no exception. All eurozone countries are enjoying very robust growth of exports. That's one of the benefits of the euro (and the single market, and the EU's drive for international free trade agreements).
That's quite separate from the very real problem of capital flight and scarce access to investment finance, and the need for better government priorities to implement social policies (unemployment must fall - pension ages should rise & military spending should fall to release the necessary funds for active labour market policies) and structural reforms (liberal labour markets, more investment in human capital, faster court systems, lighter & simpler regulation, rationalised tax systems, lower corporation tax, etc) are urgently needed.
Perhaps I didn't write it clearly, but I meant to hold Ireland as an example of more stable, effective & competent government - with far better outcomes for employment & growth than in other countries that suffered similar collapse of housing & credit bubbles (and loss of finance for business).
2That's quite separate from the very real problem of capital flight and scarce access to investment finance"
Excellent point. What is very distinct is the relative easy access to finance for large multi-nationals here but an almost impossible acess for SME's in Ireland.
Unemployment is yes also a huge factor. Mainly Demand Deficit unemployment and Frictional unemployment.
While Irelands exports have actually grown, I suggest you take a look at Irelands bloated public service.
You may find this an interesting read.
Look up 'The Croke Park Agreement'
While Ireland struggles to balance the books our public sector contuines to get incremental pay increases.
Ah yes, it took three whole paragraphs before you got to the (predictable) RA-point of it - PRINT.
Hey, guy - the ECB doesn't write its own mandates, and shouldn't act like it does, nor should anyone encourage it to do so.
Please tell.
Who does?
"The primary objective of the European Central Bank, as laid down in Article 127(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, ...."
The ECB is independent of all national Central Banks, national governements and all other bodies in the formulation of policy and decision making. Neither the ECB, nor a national central bank, nor any member of their decision making bodies can seek or take advice from Community institutions or bodies, from any government of a member state.
In an effort to strenghten further tje independence of the Ecb members are appointed for a single non-renenwable term so their decisions will not be influenced by re-election promises.
By granting such independence to the ECB it is hoped that it will be free to concentrate on its primary objective of price stability.
Right - and until that Treaty is amended, per its terms, maintaining price stability is the one and only dominant policy objective of the ECB, to the exclusion of any other objective the attainment of which compromises price stability.
RA's entreaty to the ECB to abandon price stability in favor of employment growth is a 'de facto' invitation to the ECB to usurp a legislative authority it doesn't have - 'treason', by some interpretations of that term.
"If something is unsustainable, then it will stop."
- Herb Stein, economist in the Nixon and Ford days.

The Animal Rights Coalition operates Ethique Nouveau; a vegan boutique, where all purchases help fund our animal advocacy programs, at 317 W. 48th St. in Minneapolis. The ARC office is located at the same address.
Ethique Nouveau & ARC office hours are:
Come on out to ARC/Ethique Nouveau at 317 W 48th St. in Minneapolis on Thursday, July 12 at 6:00pm to hear author Christine Heppermann read from her new book City Chickens, which is all about Minneapolis' own Chicken Run Rescue, the only urban shelter in the country exclusively for chickens. Christine will be available to chat and sign copies of the book after the reading.
Christine will be joined by Mary Britton Clouse and Bert Clouse from Chicken Run Rescue. Over the years, Mary and Bert have given hundreds of homeless birds a safe place to rest until they can be adopted by caring families.
City Chickens is a moving and at times humorous story that will open young readers' eyes and also inspire them to help all creatures great and small. Many photographs document the "guests" (as Mary calls the chickens she cares for) as they prepare for new lives as companion animals. Come along and find out why lovable chickens are actually, according to Mary, "the ones who need friends the most."

I hear Google is going on a hiring spree, many new jobs likely to be related to Android.
Tannenbaum is wrong. Nokia should have increased development efforts on MeeGo and put aside microkernel based Symbian long before. It is obvious that as the devices get complicated, microkernel based approach gets harder to develop and wastes valuable time.
The result will be microsoft gaining a %5 or perhaps a %10 maximum increase in handheld OS market and nokia further shrinking to %20 levels in device sales. Can't understand how they could be that stupid.
I hear Google is going on a hiring spree, many new jobs likely to be related to Android.
It's a truly sad thing if Qt is affected by this, and it probably will be. Why the hell buy a great platform, improve it (I really feel they have in regards to how "hot" Qt is right now, a lot of companies are talking about it, more than ever before), and then go to bed with the Devil which will probably force you to kill it.
Not that a Nokia boss cares about a platform.. My mistake to think so.
My best wishes and thanks goes out to the developers! I think you've done an awesome job so far, and I'm really looking forward to more Qt, MeeGo/Maemo (still love my N900) and Linux awesomeness.
The fact that Nokia is able to purchase something like Qt is the real issue here. The problem that Qt faces is merely a symptom of this problem.
Nokia has decided to choose slow, less painful but certain death rather than waiting for their short term bitter pill to take effect. The new CEO seems to be risk averse and is content with Nokia being a just another hardware company. If Nokia could not use Intel's muscle for advancing MeeGo, shame on them. Maybe they should sell Qt+MeeGo to HP.
Did MS just buy Nokia for $0?
Minor Correction. Intel has dropped the Netbook spin of MeeGo.
i'm surprised nobody has brought up what makes this situation confusing. think about it - nokia spent a lot of time, and probably money, on meego. it obviously wasn't a fluke of a project because even intel still plans to use it. so why would nokia stop using their own product?
MS's windows phone 7 is doing the worst of all smartphone OSs, and they're a company that does literally anything to be first and wipe out competition. nokia with meego is a new form of competition. it would not surprise me if MS paid nokia a lot to stop their plans with meego, and to its place. microsoft cannot pay intel to stop doing something, and intel's plans for meego doesn't involve smartphones, it involves netbooks and tablets, which MS isn't really struggling in right now.
Let's not overreact here. Qt cannot be killed. It is GPL and LGPL, and there is a signed contract which states that if it is not to be actively developed by Trolltech, it will become BSD-licensed. There is an active community interested in keeping it alive.
It is still a worrying development. Trolltech has provided a stable and positive development environment for Qt, which is partly responsible for how brilliant and complete it is nowadays. It would be a hard blow should it be discontinued, and it would take a while before the community picked up enough speed to match the current pace of development.
This is an unfortunate formulation. They have purchased Trolltech, which is the company owning the copyright to Qt.Originally Posted by joshuapurcell
Qt is still under both the GPL and LGPL, so even if Trolltech is terminated, most of their hackers (who are really cool people who support open source) would likely find ways to work on it.
Thank you RMS for thinking about scenarios like this one 30 years ago. Thank you Trolltech for GPL-ing Qt when you didn't have to, and making sure that Qt stays alive whatever happens.
fucking ridiculous ! for 8 years, eight long years i was and i'm using nokia 1100 phone. i hate it but still using it gladly. why ? because it fulfils its purpose and functionality/price is adequate which cannot be said about "smartphones" and other portables with shitty names. for all these years i heard only about one device which i would like to have and it's n900. because it has a lot of stuff, all of which i can use in its full potential. no bullshit.
but i would like slightly more - some fusion between n900 and N8, so i could completely replace my phone and laptop and do everything on that portable multi-purpose device. and that kinda device would emerge, and newest, polished version of most awesome portable multi-purpose OS, MeeGo would be rolling in it. but NO! someone had to fuck it up for me, for all of us! those little skunky, speculating, ballmer-loving, Windows™®-touching prostitutes !
eh, i should probably find latest factory revision of n900 and buy it. hope it at least as half as durable as old brick, 1100...

A fabulously spicy chicken dish made light with skinless chicken legs and thighs, simmered in a pot with light coconut milk, scallions, onions, tomatoes, garlic, thyme and one very hot scotch bonnet pepper. I served this with Jamaican rice and beans (recipe coming tomorrow), and a simple tomato avocado salad, and boy was this delicious!
I just love the tropical flavors in Jamaican cuisine, it's similar to Latin cuisine only a whole lot hotter! The scotch bonnet pepper is commonly used in Jamaican cuisine, but I warn you, it's spicy!! This small little pepper packs a whole lot more heat than a jalapeño so a little goes a long way. I like spicy foods, but I personally can only tolerate using 1/2 pepper for my taste and wearing gloves when handling the pepper is a must. If you like really spicy food, then add the whole pepper and please, keep them away from the kids and pets!!
I'm a dark meat lover so I chose the legs and thighs, but you can use a whole chicken cut up, or just the breast if you prefer white meat. I recommend using chicken on the bone, because bones give stews flavor and although it would still work with boneless chicken, it won't be as good. My husband loved this dish, and it will absolutely be going into our dinner rotation. Enjoy!!
Jamaican Brown Stew Chicken
Servings: 6 • Serving Size: 1 thigh and drumstick • Old Points: 5 pts • Points+: 6 pts Calories: 235 • Fat: 9.3 g • Protein: 27.6 g • Carb: 8.5 g • Fiber: 1.6 g • Sugar: 1.1 Sodium: 371.5 mg
- 6 bone-in chicken legs with thighs attached, skin removed (6 thighs, 6 drumsticks)
- 1 lime or 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 large tomato, chopped
- 4 medium scallions, chopped
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1/2 - 1 hot scotch bonnet pepper, seeds + membrane removed, chopped
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme or 2 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce (for gluten free use GF Tamari)
- 1 tsp coconut oil (canola would be fine too)
- 1 medium carrot, chopped finely
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened light coconut milk (I like Thai Kitchen)
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
Squeeze lime over chicken and rub well. Drain off excess lime juice.
Using gloves combine tomato, scallion, onion, garlic, scotch bonnet pepper, thyme and soy sauce in a large bowl and add to the chicken. Cover and marinate at least one hour.
Heat oil in a dutch pot or large saucepan. Shake off the seasonings as you remove each piece of chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later.
Lightly brown the chicken on medium-high heat. When browned on all sides, pour the marinade over the chicken and add the carrots. Stir and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Mix cornstarch and coconut milk and add to stew, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and cook an additional 20 minutes or until tender, add salt to taste.

Formed in 1998 as the consolidation of three local grain cooperatives and additional mergers in 2000 & 2003, Topflight Grain Cooperative is located in east central Illinois, serving grain producers in Piatt, Macon, Moultrie, Dewitt, Douglas & Champaign counties. Permanent storage capacity of the fifteen facilities is 25 million bushels of grain. Annual volume of the company is 34 million bushels with grain sales exceeding $200 million.
Due to the optimal location of Topflight Grain on three rail lines and its location just 25 miles from the Decatur, Illinois ADM and Tate & Lyle corn and soybean processing plants, Topflight Grain elevators are in a position for timely grain marketing from receipt of grain to its final destination. The numerous trucking firms that serve all of Topflight's grain elevators ensure prompt delivery of truck grain sold in the nearby processing markets.
Topflight Grain facilities at Bement, Milmine and Monticello are located directly on the Norfolk Southern rail main line, allowing shipments of grain into Decatur, movement to the Illinois River, east coast, or the export market. Through a reciprocal agreement, switching on the Illinois Central affords the opportunity for export markets via the Gulf of Mexico. The Gulf of Mexico is also accessible from the Cisco grain facility, where Topflight Grain owns the 13.5-mile rail road that connects Cisco to the Decatur markets and the IC rail service. The IC market is also available to the Seymour facility of Topflight Grain for a direct shipment to the southern markets. The CSXT rail line serves Topflight Grain facilities at Pierson and LaPlace, reaching the south-eastern US grain markets.
Topflight Grain Cooperative, Inc. is a state licensed grain dealer. The licenses are protected through annual audits by the State of Illinois. Year-end financial and grain audits are prepared by certified accountants, and presented at the Company's annual stockholder meeting. Topflight Grain is also a member of the Illinois Grain Insurance Corporation which insures grain owners against grain elevator failure.

Vivian's Atelier
22 comments:
Love her books..thanks to you and her of course:) I love to embroider also:)
You two must have fun ensemble.- Lucinda9:12 AM
Three cats plus a lurker in the closet is enough in my books to say whatever you like.
I once knew a friend who called her cat 'Lurka'
The cat was never seen by me or anyone else I know of. There may be something about the mystery of cats that leads one to exaggerate and wish they were more present? I love cats & I love this post! Nice to see a view of the countryside and the cats scattered about. I like the greenery.
Is the third illustration a watercolor by you?- Terri in MT4:43 PM
I just stumbled on your blog as I was Googling what to wear in Paris in September (my new hubby and I are visiting for our honeymoon). I LOVE your site! The pictures are absolutely so evocative of Paris and all things French.
Thanks for giving me this beautiful French moment ce matin.
Tres amicalement,
Terri Well, you came up a bit short on the cat count but there is such a thing as artistic license, so perhaps we should give Ms. Swift the benefit of the doubt.....Loved seeing her embroidery! Makes me want to tackle some more myself!
ReplyDeleteI have read her books & yes, glowing reviews! Love the integration of the Twain quote with the cats...She, like you, finds connections. I wish I could see the embroidery in person, it looks exquisite. And yes, your book will be great!
ReplyDeleteAfter reading her.. When Wanderers cease to Roam..book.. which BTW was excellent.. I enjoyed seeing where she lives. I loved her Feather collection and how she framed it. I have been collecting Feathers for years here. What a fantastic way to show them off. I need to check out more of her books. Thanks for the great post.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to visit your blog everyday and see your latest eye and mind "candy"! I've mentioned you in the watercolor class/workshop that I've been attending for years ... and recently brought in Vivian's book, Le Road Trip. They all loved it! And her first book is sitting on my night stand right now. Thanks for sharing! Her embrodery is divine. (Vivian: how about designing some embroidery kits?!) :-)

Library offers free grant seeking workshop
Plumas County Library is offering "Grant-Seeking Basics" Friday, April 15, from 9:30 a.m. – noon in the Quincy Library meeting room. This is a reschedule of the workshop which was cancelled in March due to illness.
The workshop will provide guidelines for identifying potential funders, and will provide training in the Foundation Center's comprehensive online database. Attendees will learn how to create customized searches to develop targeted lists of foundations that will match their organization's funding needs.
This workshop is free, and recommended for representatives of nonprofit organizations, anyone new to fundraising and anyone wanting to know more about the library's Foundation Center resources and the funding research process. Space is limited. Interested nonprofits can register by calling the Plumas County Library, 283-6310. The library is located at 445 Jackson St.
Plumas County Library continues to offer resources for nonprofit organizations and other grantseekers looking for funding from foundations. Thanks to support from Feather River Land Trust, Plumas Rural Services, Plumas Corporation and Northern Nevada Food Bank, the library is starting its fourth year as a Cooperating Collection of the Foundation Center.
The Foundation Directory Online (FDO), the leading grantseeking database on the Web, has been recently updated to provide even easier search strategies. Library users have free access to FDO along with a core collection of Foundation Center directories and publications.
"We're very grateful to our partners, who've allowed us to keep providing this valuable database," says Margaret Miles, Plumas County librarian. "People like it because it's easy to use. There's an amazing amount of information available here that we wouldn't have otherwise."
The database offers a variety of search options so that searchers can create a fully customized search based on specific criteria. Most database listings offer profiles of the grantmaking organization, grant types, people and IRS Form 990. Miles is available to give instruction in use of the Foundation Directory by appointment.
A second online database, Foundation Grants to Individuals, provides sources for scholarships, fellowships and other financial support. Access to both databases is currently available only in the Quincy Library. "The nearest other Cooperating Collections are in Redding or Carson City," says Miles. "There are many nonprofit agencies in Plumas, and in neighboring counties, that will benefit from having these resources closer at hand."
Established in 1956, the Foundation Center is the nation's leading authority on organized philanthropy, serving grantseekers, grantmakers, researchers, policymakers, the media and the general public. Thousands of people visit the center's website each day and are served in its five regional learning centers and its national network of Cooperating Collections.

Match Tours are the latest addition to the Tire Rack SCCA National Solo Series. These events are three events in one package. The event starts off with a Saturday four run Autocross, then a two run Last Chance Qualifier on Sunday morning, followed by the final show down coming together in Evolution Super Shootout. The Shootout format allows the forty-eight fastest drivers to mix with the top four ladies, as well as eight random drawn drivers in a four ladder tournament to see who can take home the big prize. The top 32 qualifiers and Top 8 ladies are determined from the events overall PAX results, and are then locked into their positions for the Sunday Super Shootout. Once those drivers are locked in to the Shootout, the rest of the competitors get a second chance in the Last Chance Qualifier. Following the LCQ the top 16 are brought into the Super Shootout bringing the total number to 56. The remaining 8 Super Shootout positions will be from a random drawing of any that have not made the top 56 spots, bringing the total to 64. With the field complete, the 64 competitors are plugged into a bracket system and run against one another until only one remains.

If you thought Australia was all kangaroos and crocodile hunting, then you have to see this 19 year old Aussie cutie. Kelly Surfer is a pigtailed blonde with an accent that comes straight out of the Outback. She looks innocent in her white lacy lingerie, but she doesn\'t have a shy bone in her body. She shows off her perky teenie boobs and when she\'s got her lips and hands wrapped around a boner, she wrangles it like she\'s wrestling big croc. From ball-sucking to jerk-off, this little teen really knows her way around a cock.
Aussie girls rule!

For the Blade Runner box set, I would suggest the case version instead of this version...pricy but, just a bit more.
Also, the Planet of the Apes box set with booklet is a great one also, it doesn't include the re-imagination of the saga but, all original 5 movies are in there, well worth it.
And thanks for that suggestion of Amazon.uk, somehow that classic horror is like 140$ in Canada and only 33EUROs in UK...great deal.

WHEELING - RG Steel liquidated its mills last summer, but the bankrupt company is now suing the Health Plan of the Upper Ohio Valley for allegedly mismanaging $1.45 million worth of funds.
The lawsuit - filed in U.S. District Court in Wheeling Jan. 18 by attorneys Charles J. Kaiser and Richard Beaver - accuses the health care provider of "negligently failing to apply the appropriate premium payments to the correct bank account."
According to the Health Plan's website, the company is West Virginia's first and largest HMO, while also servicing 41 counties in Ohio. It maintains an office east of St. Clairsville near the Ohio Valley Mall.

Even though the company is bankrupt, RG Steel is suing the Health Plan of the Upper Ohio Valley for $1.45 million for alleged breach of contract.
The complaint lists RG's headquarters in Sparrows Point, Md., which is the location of the steel mill of the same name that is now being demolished and sold. The suit claims that in 2004, the company that was then still known as Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corp. entered into an agreement with the Health Plan to administer medical services for some steel retirees.
RG alleges the Health Plan mismanaged this account for retiree medical benefits by using "inadequate procedures and deficient forms" to administer the benefits. RG's complaint states these errors continued until last summer and were only discovered because the steelmaker conducted an audit of the plan.
RG states the Health Plan cost the bankrupt steelmaker the $1.45 million by placing the money into the wrong account. RG also claims to have letter signed by a Health Plan financial officer, which acknowledges and admits to the errors, dated July 26.
The complaint also alleges the health care provider had "woefully deficient check and balances with respect to its benefits administration policies and procedures." RG demands a trial by jury.
An official with the Health Plan declined to comment on the lawsuit when contacted this week, while also declining to identify himself.
Esmark Inc. previously owned all the former Wheeling-Pitt facilities before selling them to Russian steelmaker OAO Severstal for $1.23 billion in July 2008. Severstal, after idling the Steubenville and Mingo Junction plants in 2009, later sold the plants to RG, which liquidated its assets after filing for bankruptcy last year.
Meanwhile, officials with Buffalo, N.Y.-based Frontier Industrial are still looking for options for the Mingo plant they purchased out of bankruptcy for $20 million. The facility contains the electric arc furnace, which itself cost $115 million in the mid-2000s.
Records show that Wheeling businessman Quay Mull and accountant Joseph N. Gompers purchased the Martins Ferry RG mill for $2 million. RG also sold the idled Steubenville plant to a subsidiary of Herman Strauss Inc., a Wheeling-based recycling business. Strauss paid $4.3 million for about 103 acres, plus another $10.7 million for the scrap and machinery. Portions of the Steubenville facility are being removed.
After evaluating the situation last summer, Esmark Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James P. Bouchard entered a venture to purchase RG's Yorkville plant, as well as a 50 percent stake in the nearby Ohio Coatings Co. tin plate production facility.
