Meet Prabha, a 17 year old bursting with ideas, enthusiasm, and energy.
Buoyed by her success at the 2011 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Athens and the Vidya Stokes Award from the Governor of Himachal Pradesh, Prabha wants to work with children like her, offering them the same skills and opportunities she received in the last five years. She lives in Himachal Pradesh, studying in Prem Ashram, a residential special school.
Born in Kullu into a very poor family, Prabha's father died before she was born. Prabha's mother worked as a school helper, struggling to keep her family of three financially afloat. The lack of money meant that Prabha could only afford to attend school beginning at age 10 and only then she was diagnosed with low IQ. Before this, she spent most of her time at home, helping her mother with household chores. Prabha tried to catch up with her peers socially and academically, but did not succeed. The frustration forced her to leave school two years later.
Her uncle learned of Prem Ashram and enrolled Prabha there in 2007. Apart from basic special school education, Prabha learns vocational skills like cooking and IT.What Prabha lacked in academics, she made up for in sports, excelling in roller skating, bocce and football. The budding athlete focused primarily on roller skating, training in her new school. Prem Ashram has been a partner of Special Olympics Bharat since 2000 and through this connection Prabha participated at different sports camps and competitions at the district, state and international level.
According to Sister Neelam, Prabha's teacher, these opportunities for sports participation made Prabha more active and confident. At camps and competitions, she interacts with other athletes, improves her technique and prepares for new challenges.
The change is already evident. Prabha triumphed in the 2011 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Athens, winning two Gold Medals and one Bronze in individual and team events.
These accumulative experiences transformed Prabha from a shy, introverted child into a happy, social young person. She now sees herself as someone who can contribute to her community, through coaching other athletes, to bring sporting glory for herself, family, school and country.
Her mother too is thrilled with Prabha's achievements. "People see me now as the mother as an achiever, not a disabled child. Prabha has brought glory not just to the village but to the country."

Manchester police officer plans to ask for censure of Alderman Joe Kelly Levasseur tonight
"I'm going to ask that the city censure him and have him step down or at a minimum disqualify him from votes affecting the police department," said Maloney, president of the union that represents the city's rank-and-file police officers.
Maloney said he was happy with Foster's finding, but disappointed the attorney general is not pursuing a charge against Levasseur of filing a false police report.
"He called me a punk, he called me a bunch of weasels ... he's an alderman at large. This isn't just some citizen," Maloney said. "The city could have taken action earlier; half the witnesses were aldermen."
The AG's report is also on the regular agenda for tonight's aldermanic meeting.
Members of the board have been reluctant to comment on Foster's report.
Parking fees
Aldermen tonight will also consider a plan to increase fees for parking meters and permits in and around the downtown area. The plan advanced by Denise Boutilier, the city's parking manager, would raise meter rates for the affected area from 50 to 75 cents per hour. The hours in which meter fees must be paid would be increased from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m. Currently, meter fees are in effect from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

WOuld like to buy striped black and white thigh highs and tights. I am waist 40 In and hips 44 Inch. 5 ' 5 1/2". I think I fit in 3X size? But most only have ONE size to choose from so what do I do? I really would like to buy them ASAP and how much shippi
When will the version with grey and black stripes be back? I'd really like to buy them
I'm 5'7" ....will these still be thigh high on me?
Will these ever be available in additional colors? More options without browns would be nice. Navy or Plum with Teal would put me over the moon!
If I order today, will they arrive before Halloween? (California)
It says one size but I'm a very heavy girl with thick thighs, what are the chances these would fit me? about 32 inches at mid thigh.. >.>
Does anyone have the plum & brown socks? They look really cute! But I was just wondering if the colors are as awesome as pictured.
I'm 4'8 and my thighs are about 15 inches wide, will these be too loose??
I just got the Extraordinarily Longer Thigh Highs and loved them so much that I immediately had to tell you about it. I, of course, love all the socks I order from you, but these are my favorite!! They are not only long enough for my mutant legs, they are also the softest, most lovely thigh highs I have ever worn! I love them so hard.

Thanks Scott! I like that idea and will definitely leave it open as an option, in fact I did, as you will see.
It was a totally lousy day outside here today and a perfect day to be inside modeling, so I continued on the aft torpedo doors/shutters. I decided to make the torpedo doors open for the last two tubes, numbers 9 and 10. The image below shows the circles to make the door on the forward bulkhead. The door was the easy part. Just because the door is open doesn't mean I could escape the valley. That's what the green circle is. Note that it was copied from the other side.
Because the circle extends into parts of the hull I didn't want to cut, I sliced the circle at the line shown in the image above and made a closed polyline that didn't intersect the sides of the tube area.
I then copied this poly line parallel to the rear bulkhead. I also copied it to the forward edge but note that the circle is on the edge. The router blade exits the model.
I then lofted between the polylines…
Some times when shapes to be added or subtracted line up at a point Autocad can't handle it, so to avoid this potential I extruded the end section a bit and joined it to the previous estrusion…
…Then subtracted the joined shapes from the model, to get a nice valley.
But the valley also extends into the hull so I had to cut it too. This was a bit tricky. I started by mirroring the needed circles from the other side.
That got them to the right side. Next I copied them to the lower tube. I could have moved them but wanted to keep the original ones in case I goofed up. The image below shows it from end on.
You can see that now they are in the right location but need to be rotated to be oriented properly with the surface.
Now I could loft the circles…
…And subtract the lofted solid.
A lot of trouble for a little notch, but there it is. And I redid it all on the other side.
The door was next, and I did it the same as I did for the forward ones I made open. I lofted circles, rotated them, extruded them…
…And subtracted them.
Then I added the texture to the door and extruded the inner circle into the model (magenta)…
…Mirrored the whole assembly to the other side, subtracted the extruded shape and added torpedos.
The image below shows the starboard side door with the torpedo colored red.
Here it is from the front after I lopped off the unneeded portion of the torpedo.
After slicing the torpedo, I joined everything on the starboard side together and recolored it.
On the port side I drilled the hole and joined everything together except the torpedo. Like I said, I left my options open at this point.

Love this sweater!
I received this sweater in blue as a Christmas gift. It's a perfect fit! I love wearing leggings, so the length of this works very well. It's been hard finding tunics and longer tops that do the job. I love the open detail on the arms and shoulders. This is what sets it apart from other sweaters. The only downside is that the fabric is starting to pill in the front and on the sleeves. Other than that, I love it. As a matter of fact, I'm back to buy the black. Keep the longer tops, sweaters, and blouses coming!
March 8, 2014
Just Ok
I was excited about this sweater due to the color. It is a pretty hue, but I found it to be a 'meh' sweater.
The fit is large - you will not need to worry about it being too small, even in the hips. It's a forgiving fit, but not necessarily flattering.
Also the fabric is not soft, but not overly scratchy. You will want to layer it.
While I will continue to wear it, I would not recommend to a bff.
December 25, 2013
The quality of this sweater is absolutely poor, it feels like one of your grandmother sweater. It kind of looks okay in the front, but the back fits a little bulky. I will be returning this for sure.
December 25, 2013
Cozy and Cute!
I really like this sweater! The blue is very pretty and complimentary to my pale skin tone. I am kind of tall (5'11") and the length in the torso is good. The sleeves are a little short, but the fit of the sweater makes up for that. I recommend wearing a tank underneath for extra warmth and because the designed holes in the sweater make it a little see-through.
December 24, 2013
It is okay
The sweater is a great color and I like the different textures, however, it is very lightweight. I would have liked it to have been more "sweaterlike".
December 18, 2013
Boxy sweater, not in a good way
I don't expect this sweater to be a fitted one, but the fit is really off, it is very boxy, and yes I look like a bell.
December 17, 2013
Cute winter sweater!
I was surprised by how soft this sweater was! Its a really great color and length to wear with leggings. I usually wear an XS, but with this sweater I liked the fit of the Small.

Mar 12, 2013If you're buying the game for it's story then you're in for a royal disappointment, but if you get it for the gameplay then you're going to have one hell of a time with it.

Mar 12, 2013Loved this game. Just played through the story, and it was totally unexpected. They sure do a great job hiding the story in the trailers. Gameplay was fantastic as usual, and the replay value im sure will be never ending with arcade modes and regular ladder play. Good job blizzard on this one.
Mar 12, 2013
Mar 12, 2013Do not let these low reviews fool you, this game is amazing! It lives up to the expectation and from what I have played the campaign is fresh and new. This is a must buy!
Oct 1, 2013This is quite an expensive expansion but does add a lot to SCII, both the singleplayer campaign and the multiplayer are great, after playing for some months I'm starting to hope the final expansion will be released soon. Its a solid game and my favorite multiplayer by far... probably until I try DOTA.
Jul 15, 2013
Sep 22, 2013A pretty good expansion, the story is a bit too cheesy but not bad.
Controlling Kerrigan is amazing though and you really feel like the queen of the zerg!
The new multiplayer really doesnt add to much but its still pretty good.
A worthy expansion to the best RTS ever made! -

Mar 29, 2013Great Game! Cant wait to see the third part of the trilogy! Its not better than Wings of Liberty, its just a different compaign. I think Blizzard should still work on some PvP components as there are a few balance issues appear (easpecially when you play toss vs terrans) As fot the story its amazing. I hope they will release it next year
Mar 16, 2013
Mar 21, 2013The game is very good in terms of both singleplayer and multiplayer. The multiplayer is still incredibly demanding and I feel exhausted after only laddering for a short while, but that is how all good rts games are. The campaign is well made, has good replayability, and is definitely by itself worth the price of 40$
Mar 16, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Mar 21, 2013The multiplayer is outstanding. They finally moved the game into a more fast paced, more enjoyable direction. It reminds me of Brood War and that brings a tear to my eye.
Also, the multiplayer is much more casual friendly with the points system, interface, and arcade.
A must buy for any RTS lover! A must by for people who enjoy social gaming! -
Mar 26, 2013I liked it alot, i got sick of the stupid ass love story garbage in the campaign, and my race, zerg, got with the new units, but thats what starcraft is about, adapting, now im a protoss player till they fix the zerg and give us SOMETHING viable, other than hydras.
-1 "love conquers all" garbage. -
Mar 16, 2013
Mar 17, 2013I enjoyed the campaign, I thought it was very original if not somewhat predictable. The difficulty of normal is far too easy for experienced SC2 players (particularly zerg players). However multiplayer is obviously where the game makes a lot of sense to buy. Personally spent over 100 hours playing multiplayer already and I havent even scratched the surface. A great game.
Mar 13, 2013
Apr 15, 2013
Apr 1, 2013Hots has more action than WoL campain, the cinematics are insane! the game has changed a lot, since starcraft2 WOL,new interface, new customizations, new features new tutorials! Nice job by Blizzard...
Again! -
Apr 1, 2013The campaign features are unqiue, multiplayer has great changes (Especially to mechanics and replay watching) and the graphics are awesome.
Hands down one of the best expansions I've ever played. -
Apr 1, 2013
Apr 9, 2013Great! Very well changed from the original, allowing hours upon hours of online gameplay, in which you can expand your skill and go against players with equal level.
Mar 29, 2013While nowhere near as amazing as the first StarCraft, the missions and story are still some of the best PC gaming has to offer. MUCH better the the disappointment that the first campaign, Wings of Liberty had to offer.
Mar 28, 2013
Mar 19, 2013
Mar 14, 2013Nice balance even in campaign, who cry about an easy game should pick brutal there comes t2/t3 units that active use their spells. Well done-cinematrcs looks fantastic the story but is a bit dull

Mar 14, 2013
Mar 18, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Mar 12, 2013A solid expansion. Improved gameplay both in the singleplayer and multiplayer department. Better UI and thats it. Nothing too radical. Which also means anything you didn't like about the first one game (WoL) will be present in HoTS. I however liked the first one and I loved the general improvements in the expansion. 9/10
Mar 12, 2013If you liked Wings of Liberty you'll very much enjoy this. Excellent campaign and worthwhile improvements to multi-player space. Wonderful cinematics is just the cherry on top.
Mar 12, 2013It's good, very good in fact. If you are on the fence about buying it take some time and look through YouTube, there are hundreds of videos over the past 6 months about HoTS. It is exactly what I expected that I would get, because I have been following it for some time. I have yet to play the single player, but if it is half as good as the Wings of Liberty campaign I wont be disappointed.
Mar 13, 2013
Mar 13, 2013
Mar 12, 2013Campaing is amazing, so is the soundtrack, the cinematics and so on.
Multiplayer has come a long way and as a zerg I don't have to rely on infestors on every match up. I like it a lot, definetly GOTY candinant. At least on startegy games category. -
Mar 12, 2013Best E sport game ever This game is so addictive, the art style is amazing and the campaign is a huge bonus of goodness. Not to mention the cinematics.
Mar 12, 2013
Mar 12, 2013this game is absolutely fantastic and gorgeous. every negative user review you read on here is obviously written by someone with the brain capacity of a chick pea, especially considering they can barely spell or construct a sentence. A+ Blizzard.
Mar 13, 2013
Mar 13, 20132013 Game of the Year! Excellent story-lines and ways of approaching an RTS from a new perspective. I love the Starcraft 2 storyline more than WoW. They tie in everything in a smooth, easy to understand way. A+++
Mar 14, 2013
Mar 17, 2013Excellent strategy. Timely return of best RTS of 2010. Heart of the Swarm makes you forget about other games. And no more words. Everybody must play!!!
Mar 13, 2013
Mar 15, 2013
Mar 13, 2013Excellent story and loved new Sarah.It remainds me Arthas from WoW because I think Blizzard loves to create a good man turning to a bad one and that's why their games have very good quality.They know how to create a good story and continue that.Nice job Blizzard you made it again..

Apr 13, 2013Solid sequel to Wings of Liberty. Vastly entertaining campaign, revamped Battle.net, world class cinematics and endless multiplayer content make Heart of the Swarm yet another success for Blizzard. Only remark is the run-of-the-mill-story.
Apr 28, 2013The story is a bit sillier than in Wings of Liberty. Still not bad though. I enjoyed the campaign, though Kerrigan is a bit too powerful if you're playing on Normal. Unit evolutions were a really nice touch, and the core gameplay remains just as solid as the original Starcraft. Definitely worth buying.

May 3, 2013Amazing game, great cut scenes that are stunningly beautiful. The new units help streamline the game and make it much more challenging. The single player campaign gives you more choices in how to play and immerses you into the story. Well Done Blizzard!!
May 4, 2013Ahem....
Whens the next? -
Mar 12, 2013A beautiful game with a beautiful story. The cinematics are of the highest quality, the plot is developed perfectly. There may not be huge leaps and bounds of improvements over WoL... But then again, it's hard to improve on something that's already of the highest quality.

Mar 13, 2013Heart of the swarm has a story that i loved and gameplay that i loved even more. I did not think i would like the game that much because zerg is my least favourite faction in the game, but the evolution missions, upgrades and abilities were a lot more fun than the upgrade system in wings of liberty. If you loved wings of liberty, you will love heart of the swarm even more!
Mar 14, 2013Great new campaign, more of the same fantastic multiplayer with a few UI tweaks and several additional units. Weakest part is probably the new unit additions, as they don't seem to "mix up" the formula as much as they could. However I understand why they went this way, rather than breaking the delicate balance of the game.
Mar 13, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Mar 12, 2013The best game ever made just got better the campaign is awsome luvin the new missions and overal look of the game then we have multiplayer this game is just simply the best franchise ever made cant reccommend it enough go out and get it right now.
Mar 13, 2013Its bloody awesome, builds on WoL and makes the whole shebang better.. well done Bliz! If you like RTS your gonna love this ride. Bliz rarely disappoints and this is no exception.

Mar 14, 2013Great game. Everything is simply perfect. Campaign, multiplayer, sound. 10/10 Brilliant game!
A little bit better than Wings of Liberty. I hope Legacy of the Void will be soon. -

Mar 14, 2013Wings of Liberty was an awesome game, and this campaign was even more fun and engaging! My only sadness is that I need to wait another couple of years for the 3rd and final chapter. That's ok, multiplayer and the community maps will keep me busy until then! Thanks Blizzard, you didn't disappoint.
Mar 13, 2013I wish the campaign was a little less focused on individual hero units and more focused on the overall RTs aspect.
Aside from that, the game was fun and multiplayer and more interesting. -
Mar 12, 2013
Mar 12, 2013VERY very fun, so awesome. Great storyline, great campaign unique gameplay. I have played SC since the beggining and it just keeps getting better. Any popular game like this will get bad reviews, however this one is worth the money.
Mar 12, 2013Great campaign. Fun missions. I'm not much of a competitive SC2 player myself, so I can't comment too much to that aspect of this expansion. I can say that the one aspect I care about most (the single player campaign) is polished, fun, innovative, and addicting.
I'll definitely be replaying it multiple times to get all the achievements. -
Mar 14, 2013
Mar 13, 2013love it realy good campaign no other company can do this epicness. gj blizz. tell me what rts has better story? ofc mass effect 3 or dragon age got better maybe. but this is rts u wont get any better rts. great job bliz and fu to all haters..
Mar 12, 2013
Mar 12, 2013Starcraft2 自由の翼に続いて今度のHeart of the swarmも本当に名作だった。Storyもよかった。特に主人公の立場や考えをPlayerがもっと体感できるようにゲームが作られていていることがよかった。あのせいかStoryにも夢中できた。Just remember awesome fantastic impressive
Mar 12, 2013Beautiful, polished campaign, a better story than the previous part of the trilogy, with more complex characters and action. Good improvements in terms of UI and graphics. The HotS multiplayer looks harder than WoL, because of the new units and strategies.

Perry Wildlife Area
7760 174th Street
Valley Falls, KS 66088
Phone: 785-945-6615
Manager: Andrew Page
Phone: 785-945-6615
The Kansas Department of Wildlife & Parks has leased 10,500 acres of land at the north end of the Perry Reservoir Project from the U.S.Corps of Engineers since 1970. The area is operated and managed by the Department for wildlife management and public hunting opportunities.
Much of Perry Wildlife Area lies within the Perry Reservoir flood pool, thus flooding is not uncommon. The Delaware River bisects the area from north to south with several small creeks feeding it. The area has a diversity of habits with interspersion of Oak-Hickory woodlands, warm and cool season grasslands, man-made wetlands, and several acres of cropland.
In the mid 1970's, 11 marsh complexes were built. Two additional marshes were developed after 2000. These marshes provide about 1,000 acres of wetland habitats. The Kyle and West River marshes can be pumped from the Delaware River to provide habitat for migratory birds during dry years. All other wetlands depend on natural run off, thus water levels may vary from year to year.
Moist soils management is conducted on all marshes which uses water level fluctuations to manage for desirable wetland vegetation beneficial to migratory birds. Periodically, some marshes will be drained in order to conduct dike repairs and control invading woody vegetation and cattails. Management of upland habitats over the years has consisted of converting croplands and cool season grasses to native warm season grasses and forbs, planting of shrub plots, selective cutting of invading woody vegetation, and prescribed burning to stimulate native warm season grasses and forbs.
White-tailed deer and wild turkey are plentiful on the area. Waterfowl numbers vary depending on available habitat, but the area has supported large numbers during both the fall and spring migrations. Mourning dove numbers vary yearly depending on nesting conditions. Ring-necked pheasant can be found on the area with good numbers on the area. Bobwhite quail populations are good on the area, but a good dog is needed due to the dense vegetation. Squirrel and cottontail rabbit numbers are generally healthy and provide some of the most under utilized hunting opportunities on the area.
Non-game species are very plentiful on the area and provide some of the best wildlife viewing opportunities. A wide array of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians can be found on the area.
Fishing for catfish, white bass, and crappie in the Delaware River are also popular activities. Trapping which is allowed on the area, can be a very successful venture due to the wide array of furbearer habitats.
Special Features
- Handicapped hunting area. Written permission required from manager.
- Mentor/Youth hunting area designated for youth 16 years and younger accompanied by no more than one adult per youth.
- Delaware River Boat Ramp located south of Valley Falls.
- Perry W.A. is heavily used due to its proximity to major metropolitan areas. Opening days and weekends of all seasons are busiest.
- Camping, horse-back riding, ATV riding, and target shooting are prohibited activities. See Public Lands Regulations Summary for additional restrictions.
- All vehicles must stay on maintained roads and parking areas. Off-road driving is prohibited.
- Please do not park in front of or block gates and field accesses.
- Refuge areas are closed to all activities from October 1 through January 15.
- Motorized boats are prohibited from use on all marshes except for the east and west pools of the Kyle marsh complex.

Description And Comments
A substantial part of the Studios was a film and TV-production facility, although very little actual production takes place these days. Nonetheless, visitors can take a backstage tour to learn about production methods and technologies.
The tour begins on the edge of the back lot with the special-effects walking segment, then continues with the tram segment. To reach the Studio Backlot Tour, turn right off Hollywood Boulevard through the Studio Arch into the Animation Courtyard. Bear left at the corner where Voyage of the Little Mermaid is situated. Follow the street until you see a red brick warehouse on your right. Go through the door and up the ramp.
The first stop is a special-effects water tank where technicians explain the mechanical and optical tricks that "turn the seemingly impossible into on-screen reality." Included are rain effects and a naval battle.
A prop room separates the special-effects tank and the tram tour. Trams depart about once every 4 minutes on busy days, winding among production and shop buildings before stopping at the wardrobe and crafts shops. Here, costumes, sets, and props are designed, created, and stored. Still seated on the tram, you look through large windows to see craftsmen at work.
The tour continues through the back lot, where western desert canyons exist side by side with New York City brownstones. The tour's highlight is Catastrophe Canyon, an elaborate special-effects movie set where a thunderstorm, earthquake, oil-field fire, and flash flood are simulated.
A reader from Cherry Hill, New Jersey, found the tour lacking:
I was extremely disappointed to discover how much the Studio Backlot Tour at Disney Hollywood Studios has been shortened. The tram ride is hardly worth the time, as most of the Backlot is now gone. Catastrophe Canyon is tired and in need of refurbishment. The years of fires have caused significant black scarring on the attraction, which detracts from the realism of the effects. And the special-effects/behind-the-scenes walking tour, which I thought was a great experience when I was a young teen, is also no more.
Touring Tips
Because the Studio Backlot Tour is one of Disney's most efficient attractions, you will rarely wait more than 15 minutes (usually less than 10). Take the tour at your convenience, but preferably before 5 p.m., when the various workshops shut down for the day.
Studio Backlot Tour Wait Times
This chart shows you roughly how long you'll wait for Studio Backlot Tour when you visit on a day with a given Disney's Hollywood Studios Crowd Level. The blue bars represent the average "peak" wait time (that is, how long the line will at its busiest). The bottom and top black lines represent the range of peak wait times to expect (for you fellow nerds out there: it's the 5th percentile and 95th percentile of peak wait times). Please note that these are estimates, and for a better forecast for your travel dates, see Studio Backlot Tour Wait Times.
Special Comments
- We rate this attraction as Not To Be Missed.
- This attraction offers rider swap.

Disney Dish with Jim Hill
Nearer My Godzilla to Thee
Over the years, the Imagineers have come up with plenty of weird concepts for attractions at the Studios. But among the absolute weirdest had to be a proposed "Scream Actors Guild" attraction: a horror-themed spoof of award shows with an ending where the hosts present a lifetime achievement award...to Godzilla. After Big G had been invited to come on down and accept his award, dimensional sound and in-theater effects would have made it feel as if Godzilla were stomping through the Studios, heading for the theater. And the end gag was supposed to have the terrible lizard literally bring the house down, as a life-size Godzilla foot stomped through the roof and splintered the stage.

Lol Kwame brown is the biggest disappointment ever since sucking balls being the 1st pick in the draft, he probably won't score much, but i sense him or someone on the lakers will dominate the boards, which will hurt the warriors as always. Anyway I think if Al Harrington doesnt have such a poor night like saturday, and with Baron Davis they can pull away with a win this game.
I gotta see Monta Ellis burn Kobe this game |
Like I've said, you make "Jrich" a God. Warriors need this one. "Playoffs" will only be seen in the bay area if the Warriors win on the road. Don't hate yourself in the morning... sleep 'til noon.
I can't wait to see the Stephen Jackson vs Kobe matchup.
The Dubs stomp in the Staples and take the game in overtime by 3. |
Just think the team will go on a very good winning strea, on the road included!
Warriors by 10 And if these to spam fools do that one more time I will ban them! migya make the ring fall on ya |
HAHAHAH this guy is halarious, Eric Snow and Wesley.... Hobbits of the NBA!@!@ and now he is jocking Kwame Brown? haha, put those 3 on any team, and they won't even beat the worst NBDL team... PERIOD.... |
Is it just me... or is this fool an Eric Snow fan...? Wow. That's insult enough. Apparently, people who watch Cav's basketball think that what Eric Snow brings to the table is "game". Wow. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |

i think the w's will win this one. we have more talent and baron is back, 1st game with his new mates. jack nicholson is about to take off his sunglasses because he is not going to believe what he just saw.
dubs by 7 "Losing is inevitably close to winning," Guber said. "They're inches apart. Drama. If you have drama, you've got a ticket to sell." "They're not real fans," Lacob said. "They don't have season tickets."
Yeah, Warriors look for a fresh start w/ the new guys and Baron back.

Audrey C.SoCalHairBlackCurly HairThick or Coarse HairNot A Silver Bullet, But It Helps A LotFirst, watch out: Folica is charging about 2.5 times (!) as much as everyone else for a 4oz bottle of this stuff. Ouch. Caveat emptor.
As for the product: No Bump won't magically prevent bumps if you do other stupid things. For example, if you're tired, just want out of the shower, and you decide to attack your stubborn bikini line by shaving 90° to the direction of hair growth. Not that I know anyone like that, of course.
What No Bump does do, though, is help a lot if you do everything "right" and still bump up (IT'S NOT FAIR). I used to be totally unable to shave, at all. My friend turned me on to No Bump, and now I can shave â?? if I'm careful and do everything else necessary to ensure minimal shaving irritation.
So, I have noticed a huge improvement to my shaving outcomes, bump/ingrown quantities, and recovery time by adding No Bump IN CONJUNCTION WITH other good pre- and post-shave maintenance habits.
For reference, my skin is the color of printer paper (I spontaneously combust in direct sunlight) but I have super-dark, thick, curly, sharp, evil body hair from hell. :D

CHoustonHairCurly HairBoooI'm an African American female. I get unsightly chin hairs and a few on side of my face. (runs in family) I tried a few different products trying to get one that's atleast 98% effective. Unfortunately this is NOT one. All these ppl that says it works I don't know their circumstances. As for me it just burned my skin and showed zero improvement for ingrown hair or bumps!!!posted May 14, 2012Link to this post
ElizabethHairCurly HairBetter Than Tend SkinLove No Bumps. I had been using Tend Skin off and on for years to minimize ingrown facial hair from tweezing. It would dry and peel my skin so I couldn't use it consistently. No Bumps is wonderful. Much more gentle but very effective. My skin looks the best it has in years - no more embarassing bumps!!posted May 11, 2011Link to this post
CaitlinHairDark BrownAn Absolute Must For Ingrown Hair Sufferers.I swear by this stuff. I'm prone to ingrown hairs on the back and inside of my thighs, and around the bikini area. I have fair, sensitive skin, and dark, thick hair. (Thank you, Mom and Dad, for providing both Irish and Italian genes.) The spots become so inflamed and are so ugly that I didn't wear short skirts or shorts for two years. At all!

JonSingaporeImproves ConditionIve gone through a bottle and a half of this stuff in the past two months and it does make the bumps heal faster, normally in 24-36 hours the bumps are almost completely gone and they heal up. The problem is new ones in other areas sneaking up at night and already showing white heads by morning. But this stuff seems to work reasonably well on those too. Not an instant cure but a good treatment when prevention does not seem to be an option for some of us.posted Jul 19, 2006Link to this post

Open house is Dec. 13
Preliminary flood hazard maps for Jay County have been released by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), according to the DNR and county officials.
When final, the maps will show flood risk throughout the county and determine whether property owners, with a federal or federally insured loan, are required to carry flood insurance.
The first new such documents for the county in 16 years came as the result of FEMA, DNR, and the county completing an extensive multi-year study of the area's floodplains using state-of the-art technologies and risk-modeling techniques.
These flood insurance rate maps (FIRMs) identify property as having high, moderate or low flood risk. In addition to affecting property owners, FIRMs allow community planners, engineers, permit officials, builders, and others to determine if, where and how new structures and developments should be built.
The preliminary maps may be viewed at: http://www.floodmaps.IN.gov/ (you may experience a long download time).
An open house will be held in Portland, on Dec. 13, from 4 to 7 p.m., in the Community Resource Center Meeting Room, 118 S. Meridian St., for those who would like to learn more about how this new mapping may affect them. Stations will be set up for property owners to review the maps and discuss any concerns with engineers who are knowledgeable with the map development process. There will be no formal presentation at the open house.
Additional stations will be available during this time for property owners to obtain information and discuss any concerns regarding flood insurance or related issues with knowledgeable staff from DNR.
A 90-day public comment period will start at a date to be announced by FEMA after the public meeting. During that period, property owners can submit appeals and protests. Once the feedback is received and addressed, the maps are expected to be adopted in 2013, when the new insurance requirements will take effect.
The Jay County project is part of FEMA's larger effort to modernize the nation's aging flood maps to reflect the most current flood risks and areas of recent growth.

Fans of the band 'They Might Be Giants' are likely to be familiar with the band's version of the 1959 Tom Glazer song "Why Does The Sun Shine?" The sun is a mass / of incandescent gas / a gigantic nuclear furnace... In their new album "Here Comes Science," the band revisits that song, and follows it with a new track titled "Why Does the Sun Really Shine?" describing the science of plasma. The album also includes an ode to the elements, descriptions of what blood does in the body, and songs describing the scientific process. In this segment, John Linell and John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants join Ira to discuss the album, and to play some science songs. |

Price, Rays hope to regroup at home vs. Marlins
Mired in skid, Tampa Bay turns to lefty against Koehler at The Trop
Part II of the Citrus Series switches to The Trop.
After Miami took the first two at Marlins Park, the Marlins and Rays will play another two-game Interleague set at Tropicana Field, beginning Wednesday night.
The Rays have lost eight in a row after dropping their 10th straight road game, and they own the worst record in the American League.
David Price will try to turn his team's luck around. He gave Tampa Bay a chance to win in his last start against Boston, but earned a no-decision in the 3-2, 10-inning loss. In seven innings, the lefty gave up two runs on six hits and struck out six.
Price has struck out 90 while walking only nine this season, giving him a 10 K/BB ratio that leads baseball. He is 1-2 and owns a 4.26 ERA against Miami in three career starts. The last time he faced the Marlins was in 2011, when he suffered a 5-3 loss after giving up five runs in 6 2/3 innings.
As for Marlins starter Tom Koehler, with all the success he has had at home, the righty's road stats tell a different story.
In five starts, the 27-year-old has a 1-3 record and a 3.86 ERA. But at Marlins Park, he's 3-2 with a 2.70 ERA and has held opponents to a .207 average in six starts. His last start came Friday against the Braves, in which he was charged with three runs allowed in seven innings in the Marlins' series-opening 3-2 loss.
Koehler's tied for 13th in the Majors with eight quality starts, and five of them have come at home. He had nine all of last year.
Against the Rays in 2013, Koehler logged his first of two eight-inning starts. He was handed the loss, but he only let three runs cross the plate on seven hits.
"Tommy's made some big strides since last year," catcher Jeff Mathis said Tuesday. "He's going out there with a lot more confidence in all of his pitches. He's commanding the ball real well. It's just maintaining that mindset of being confident and throwing all of his pitches. I think tomorrow when he runs out there, he's going to take the same mindset."
Rays: It's good to be home
Tampa Bay returns to the somewhat friendlier confines of Tropicana Field for 18 of its next 21 games. The team owns a 12-14 record there. After an eight-game jaunt on the road in which they lost all eight, the Rays will try to extend a four-game win streak at home. They surpassed their worst road trip in team history -- an 0-7 trip from July 14-20, 2006 -- with a 1-0 loss on Tuesday.
"It's been a little bit of a difficult schedule. But we've played pretty well on the road," said manager Joe Maddon. "We normally hit pretty well on the road. Sometimes we actually hit better on the road than we do at home. For whatever reason, it hasn't worked out that way this year. We need to get home, and we've normally played to that 50-win category, sometimes better, and that's going to be absolutely necessary this year."
With four players hitting over .300 in St. Petersburg, accomplishing the feat might not prove to be so difficult, especially since three of them registered a hit against Koehler last year. Both Miami starters this series are a combined 1-5 on the road in 2014. Between Koehler and Thursday starter Jacob Turner, the pair has given up 21 earned runs on 44 hits in eight starts over 45 1/3 innings.
Marlins: Road games critical
This next stretch of eight road games for Miami will be critical if the team wants to make up ground in the National League East after being swept by the Braves last weekend. The Marlins have scored 90 of their 259 runs on the road, and are 8-17 away from Marlins Park.
But they did just sweep the Nationals in a rain-shortened series in Washington by outscoring them, 11-7, in two games.
Worth noting
• The Marlins are 5-0 in five Interleague games this season. Miami is 33-42 in matchups against the American League since 2010, but the team has the most all-time Interleague wins (154-141) in the National League.
• J.T. Realmuto is expected to make his Major League debut at some point this series. The catcher was called up on Sunday to take Jarrod Saltamalacchia's spot on the roster as he recovers from a concussion.
• Rays catcher Jose Molina turned 39 on Tuesday. Only six other players in Rays history have worn the Rays uniform at the age of 39 or older. Left-hander Brian Shouse (41, 2009), infielder Julio Franco (41, 1999), right-hander Russ Springer (40, 2009), third baseman Wade Boggs (39, 1999), first baseman Fred McGriff (40, 2004) and Troy Percival (39, 2009) are the others. Molina is currently the elder statesman among Major League catchers.
• Kevin Kiermaier hit his first big league triple on Tuesday. He is the third Tampa Bay player to begin his Major League career batting .300 or better with two or more home runs in his first 10 Major League games. He joins Aubrey Huff and Delmon Young.

It's back-to-school time and this week's no-cook meal for multiple sclerosis is a twist on an American childhood mainstay; the tuna fish sandwich. Instead of mayonnaise and pickles, this meal uses flavorful olive oil, tangy vinegar and fresh crunchy vegetables.
Recipe: Tuna and Fennel Sandwiches

There is strong evidence that the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish can lower triglycerides and blood pressure. Make sure to choose "chunk light tuna," which is three times lower in mercury than the solid white or albacore tuna.
Also choose water-packed tuna over oil packed. Some of the omega-3 fatty acids leak into the added oil and will be lost when you drain the can. Because water...

James Lovelock was interviewed on BBC's Newsnight on 2 April, covering a range of the many environmental issues where he's made an immense contribution, including the very future of humanity itself.
Addressing energy, Newsnight's Jeremy Paxman asked what had gone wrong about the perception of nuclear energy. Lovelock said that he wished he knew. He said nuclear energy was a "normal natural thing for the universe." and that our not using it was "quite mad."
Lovelock speculated one reason was that humanity had guilt about having first used nuclear in wartime, that prevented us using it as a "safe, clean and nearly perfect source of energy".
On other energy sources, Lovelock proclaimed himself as "fairly neutral" on gas fracking, although on potential impacts such as water course pollution he was worried. However, he thought countries like the UK may have no choice but to burn methane, in the absence of other available fuels, as he could imagine nothing was much worse environmentally than a sudden cessation of electricity supplies.
The programme is available for UK viewers to watch again until 9 April at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0400593/newsnight-02042014

So what that I have already lost it in the bottom of my commuter tote! ROTFL. I love this little gadget for playing drawing games on the T. The tip is perfect and the size is awesome. Gonna order another one for the days I absent mindedly drop it into the abyss of my commuter bag... LOL
Works perfect. Yes, it is short, but pretent you are using a Minature golf pencil. The string and the plug are a life saver. I have it attached to my iPod and I have not lost it in my purse yet.
The description of this item says it is 2 3/4 inches long. Upon arrival I found it to be only 1 3/4 inches. I can barely hold onto it and I have small hands. A grown man could never use this stylus. It definitely has been misrepresented in the product description.
Enjoying my pen matches the color if my case. Like how it can fit into the headphones portal so it's easily accessible. Using this pen on my iPad and iPhone.
Needed something to use with my cell phone and it does the job perfectly.
Got these for my kids , it keeps fingerprints off their touchscreen an the dust protecter on it keeps it right there with their phones

'Pokémon X' (Japanese: ポケットモンスターX Pocket Monsters X) and 'Pokémon Y' (Japanese: ポケットモンスターY Pocket Monsters Y) are the upcoming video games of the Generation VI series. Pokémon X and Pokémon Y are the first two Pokémon video games that comes in the main game series for the Nintendo 3DS. The video games were announced by current Nintendo president Satoru Iwata on January 8, 2013 on 11 AM GMT and 6 AM JST during a Pokémon Direct video on the Nintendo 3DS. These will be the first video games of the Pokémon series that will be released worldwide with exception of different countries. Pokémon X and Pokémon Y will be released on October 12, 2013.
3D Enhancement
Pokémon X and Pokémon Y are the first two Pokémon games that are completely in a 3-dimensional style of gameplay on a handheld system. Each and everything has been changed since the release of previous Pokemon games. The sprites have been changed into 3D designed models from the characters to the Pokémon. The appearance of a Pokémon has also not been changed as seen in the trailer when the male protagonist was running through the grass and encountered a Pikachu.
Battle System Enhancement
The battle system in video games also went under a 3-dimensional style. As seen in the trailer of the video game there were different Pokémon battles introduced. The attack of a Pokémon will be shown in a 3D style against another Pokémon. It will even show how the Pokémon will move when it's being attacked or vice versa by the opponent.
Starter Pokémon
The trailer also shows off three new Pokémon which appear to be the Fire, Grass and Water starters.
- Chespin, a Grass-type Pokémon: a brown, Erinaceidae-looking Pokémon with a spiked green hat, small arms and a small tail.
- Fennekin, a Fire-type Pokémon: an orange, fox-looking Pokémon with flame-like fur emerging from its ears. Fennekin also shares its name and appearance with the Fennec Fox.
- Froakie, a Water-type Pokémon: a blue, frog-looking Pokémon with a white puffball on its back.
The two legendary Pokémon that are the mascots for Pokémon X and Pokémon Y have been officially named as: Xerneas and Yveltal. Xerneas is deer-like with rainbow antlers, who is shaped like the letter X when it's legs are apart, while Yveltal bird-like avian of some sort, who is shaped like the letter Y. Yveltal symbolizes quetzalcoatl, the serpent god of the Aztec people.

- The region's name is the Kalos, inspired by the country France.
- Interestingly, the two monuments showed in the trailer are in Île-de-France.
- During the trailer of the video game, Pikachu was standing on the Eiffel Tower, and an Eiffel Tower-like structure is seen behind the male protagonist when he's rollerskating in a city, also, the female protagonist has been seen running from a bridge which is possibly modelled after the Palace of Versailles in France.
- The main city is Lumiose City.
- These are the first main Pokémon titles that uses single letters instead using colors or materials for the sub-title.
- These are the first two games to have their mascot's English name released before their Japanese names.
- X and Y are used because they are both international letters for the world, since the game launches the same day all over the world.
- This Generation is bound to bring significant changes to the series:
- A bond mechanic revealed by Junichi Masuda in his blog on 1/21/2013. This may be the way to get Sylveon.
- 3D models for the characters and Pokémon.
- 3D overworld.
- Trainer customization.
- These games are the first to introduce a new Pokémon form of an old Pokémon, Mewtwo.
- This is currently the only main series game where the player character can ride a Pokémon other than by Flying or by Surfing because you can ride Gogoat around the cities or towns.
- This will be the first region since Johto to introduce a new type of Pokémon, Fairy-Type.
- The new Fairy- type Pokémon are Sylveon, Flabebé, Spritzee, Swirlix, and Xerneas. Also, Gardevoir, Marill, and Jigglypuff have been retyped to Psychic/Fairy, Water/Fairy, and Normal/Fairy, respectively.
- The new game will still have one save file like the other main series games.

Appeals Court Denies Anti-Gun AG
By SOF Staff
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied an effort by California Attorney General Kamala Harris to intervene in a case involving concealed carry permits. The refusal means that a lawsuit challenging California's "may issue" concealed carry law will succeed.
According to a report by FoxNews.com, Harris's effort to intervene in the suit after San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore announced that he would not appeal the ruling. The sheriff of Yolo County, California, which also was involved in a similar case, also declined to appeal the ruling, which struck down a requirement that applicants for a concealed carry permit show a specific reason to be granted one. The three-judge panel also heard a case from Hawaii, which also required that applicants show "good cause" to be granted a permit, and similarly struck down that state's requirement.
The result of these rulings is that California and Hawaii will become "shall issue" states, boosting the total number of states with either "shall issue" concealed carry or "constitutional carry" (requiring no permit) to 44. The only states with "may issue" laws, some of which are so strictly interpreted so as to make these states "no issue" states, are New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New York, Massachusetts. The District of Colombia passed a restrictive "may issue" carry law after a court ruling, and most U.S. territories are either "may issue" or "no issue."

"An narrative that captured the spirit of an age"
I like the narrative for the emotional framing rather than historical accuracy, emotional narrative makes a history very entertaining, so I'd suggest one to read this as a well researched historical novel than serious history, the book captured the spirit and inherent contradiction of British imperialism incredibly well. Loved it.
"Polemnically sounds though unconvincing..."
This is a classic, unadulterated economics for high school students and freshman and sophomore year undergraduates, it ceased to be convincing once it is read by anyone with advanced degree. It ignores the question of power, culture and technological advantages and differences some countries have over others and how those can be exploited for gain, still it is worth reading and thought provoking book.
"A scholarly presentation"
The professor knows what he's talking about, this presentation is lucid and very objective, although I wish he could work on his Chinese Pronunciation, since this is a lecture, I can't blame the narrator, but still it is interesting.
"Better than expected"
Although I expected a boring narrative about the plague, this is a far better than expected execution to a fairly straight forward topic, instead of a narrowed down analysis to the plague of 540 ad, the book gave us the whole contextual narrative, the after effects, the long term impact and microorganic history. I am pleased with the execution; The author has managed to make the book interesting.
This book has a very balanced treatment to middle age by presenting political history of Western Europe, Americas, India, China, Japan, Byzantine, Islam and Turks, and because the focus is on political history, it's infinitely readable and interesting. We however get no social history, no great thinkers, no technology, no class analysis only time they were mentioned was if they have tangent with political narrative.
Also the decision to end the book at First Crusade, (1096-1099) seem entirely arbitrary.
"interesting conception, uninteresting execution."
I have to admit, Tuchman is one of my favourite historians and thus this book from her comes as a disappointment. The title suggested, a comprehensive history of folly committed by governments everywhere and of all times, but what we got is thematically divided episodes with superficial analysis on each theme. The theme was unequally distributed, one would think Renaissance papacy (a few hundred years in scope) would deserve more space than Vietnam War (20 years from French phase) but Vietnam War comprised one and half of the book, making Spanish conquest, War of Independent and Papal Monarchy de facto salad dressing.
"Revisionist history at its best!"
This is revisionist history at its best and will certainly enhance one's critical thinking, Americans are not necessarily more stupid than others, but when it comes to the world politics, one cannot but help shaking head, this book will hopefully be a wake up call to some people. If that's how history has been taught, no wonder they don't know anything! However the book will do well without the moralising tones of the last few chapters.
This book took a disinterested look at two thousand conflict between east and west and contains vast amount of interesting information. But because the scope is quite big, so some details might be skipped, but overall, a good book.
"Interesting enough"
This is a fairly interesting book, and I have learned much about feminine psychology, but I find this book a little repetitive, one wonders if the book cannot be make shorter.
"I learned more about history than language."
Professor Drout is as entertaining in this course as ever, though I had wished to catch up on my middle english. However, the course was not about middle English, I am nonetheless happy about purchase.

This review is from Print or Write File Folder Labels 5200:
I have to make a job file for each purchase order that we receive. Having the ability to type and print these labels saves me so much time. Some days I may only need 1 and other days may be 10.
I'm a very tech savvy person so being able to print instead of write works for me. I have been on my current job for 6+ years and I love having the option of making this office better. These labels make it more organized and neat.
I use item# 5200 - 5209 the variety of colors is great!

I use this color and several other of the colors of these labels to color code our files. I use the Avery 5202 for the template to make my labels. Works great in my printer and printing is crisp and clear.

Lol smith is garbage
Be on the look out for Sean Smith. He just stole $18 million dollars from the Kansas City Chiefs.
Bring this kid to MIAMI!
You're all going to regret letting Smith walk. He is a good player and 6 million for him is not unreasonable at all. I would've paid him 7 if we had to.
I'm pretty sure we can find a cornerback who has no ball skills, is soft as **** in run support, and gives up tons of big plays at inopportune times for a lot less than 6 million dollars per year.
God bless, I'll hang up and listen.
Sean Smith is garbage. If anything, and as hard as it is for me to admit this, this should give some points to Ireland for not bringing back that pansy.

"Ainadamar," the supposed site of that murder, means "fountain of tears" in Arabic. This is a dream of a chamber opera, a Deep Song containing the cry of the flamenco singer, the pounding of horses' hooves, and floating above them, Margarita Xirgu, the great Catalan tragedian and Lorca's muse, left to sing his song and bequeath his freedom. Composed by Osvaldo Golijov; libretto by David Henry Hwang; Music direction by Andres Cladera; video by Joe Seamans; stage direction by Karla Boos.10/19/2012 - 11/03/2012Time: 8:00 pmLocation: East Liberty Presbyterian Church, 116 S.
