It was the first time in franchise history the Marlins had swept a series at Wrigley Field.
Miguel Cabrera and Josh Willingham also homered for Florida, which scored twice in the first inning and then relied on its relief corps to deliver a five-hit shutout.
Florida starter Sergio Mitre had to leave the game with a hamstring cramp he suffered while running the bases in the fifth inning. Randy Messenger (1-1) took over and got the win while giving up two hits in two innings. Renyel Pinto, Justin Miller and Lee Gardner each worked an inning for the Marlins.
Ted Lilly (4-3) gave up six runs on seven hits in seven innings. It was his first loss since April 20.

I am working on a parser combinator library in JavaScript. For that I want to create functions that can be called like any other functions, but also have member functions that can be called in turn to produce output based on the function they are attached to (e.g. combinators).
I can of course add members to functions like this:
//the functions I want to add additional members to
function hello(x) {
return "Hello " + x;
function goodbye(x) {
return "Goodbye " + x;
//The function I want as a member of the above functions.
//it creates another function based on the function it is
//attached to.
function double() {
var that = this;
return function(x) {
return that(x) + ", " + that(x);
//I can attach them manually to the function objects:
hello.double = double;
//calling hello.double()('Joe') results in => "Hello Joe, Hello Joe"
goodbye.double = double;
//calling goodbye.double()('Joe') results in => "Goodbye Joe, Goodbye Joe"
I could create a function that augments all my functions with a double
member, but I would have to remember to call it every time I create a Hey
, Sayonara
, etc. function. Also my greeting functions would have all those members each, directly on the function object, for each instance. I would prefer to put them all in one prototype and make this the prototype of all my greeting functions. The following options don't work either:
- replacing
(nonstandard, won't work in all browsers) - modifiying
directly (would add those members to all other functions as well, but they do not make sense there - I only want to calldouble
on a set of my own functions)
Is it even possible to give a function object a custom prototype or am I stuck with modifying each function object I create?
Update: I changed the above example to be more similar to the actual problem I am working on. This is about modyfing function objects not normal objects. The final goal is to enable a comfortable syntax for parser combinators, e.g. (much simplified):
//parses one argument
var arg = …
//parses one function name
var name = …
//parses a function call, e.g. foo(x+y, "test", a*2)
var functionCall = name.then(elem("(")).then(arg.repSep(",")).then(")").into(process(…))
I want to be able to add members to a set of functions so, when these members are called, they return new functions based on the function on which they were called. This is to be used for parser combinators / monadic parsers.

Hydric Pine Flatwoods are forests with a canopy of slash pine (Pinus elliottii) or pond pine (Pinus serotina) on flat, poorly drained land. Where fires are frequent, the subcanopy is sparse or absent and the groundcover is a diverse mix of grasses and herbs—a wet prairie with pines. Common groundcover plants include wiregrass (Aristida stricta), yellow-eyed grass (Xyris spp.), meadow-beauty (Rhexia spp.), bog-buttons (Eriocaulaceae), and carnivores like pitcher plants (Sarracenia spp.), sundews (Drosera spp.), and butterworts (Pinguicula spp.). Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) is patchy or absent. Where fire has been suppressed, shrubs and trees like titi (Cyrilla racemiflora and Cliftonia monophylla), gallberry (Ilex glabra), big gallberry (Ilex coriacea), myrtle-leaved holly (Ilex myrtifolia), sweet bay (Magnolia virginiana), black gum (Nyssa sylvatica var. biflora) and swamp bay (Persea palustris) become dense and the groundcover disappears. Dense tangles of laurel-leaved greenbriar (Smilax laurifolia) often drape these shrubs. The longer fire is excluded, the more these flatwoods approach bay swamps. Hydric pine flatwoods are common throughout the lower parts of the panhandle, especially near the coast, and are absent in the higher clayey land toward the Georgia and Alabama lines.

"I love the design of this card, very good quality. I love how you can customize it to your needs. the design team responded very swiftly and everything that i wanted on the card was done based on my request."
"I loved the whimsical, modern, but not overly twee design of this invitation so much at first sight that I knew no other would do. I ordered this in the orange colorway for our summer 2015 wedding after hemming and hawing between the blue or yellow as well - they all looked so pretty! I went for the rounded edges and thought it was worthwhile to do so. I was impressed by the quality of the standard-weight cardstock. Customer service was very helpful and accommodating with our need to translate half of the invitations to Turkish (though we had to place a separate order) which involved changing around the emphasis of the text."
"I had a vision and the design team made it happen! Sent multiple different proofs until it was just perfect. I did a gray background with turquiose desing/ text and it looked fabulous! Because of how they worked with me, I will most definitely use them for all future wedding needs!"
"The colors were the perfect match for my wedding colors! The editing was great, we added in "Reception & Buffet to follow" and the designer adjusted the font size to fit the design. Love it!"
"We ordered these in the Autumn Orange with the signature white textured cardstock and they are beautiful. We also decided to add a layer of pearl white shimmer which didn't come attached to the invitation, so I had to glue them myself. It was not a big deal. I went to Michael's and got a double-sided tape, and it did not take me a long time to attach them. I am very happy with the invitations. It goes with our 1920's/vintage wedding theme."

Submitted By Todd on July 29th at 9:16pm
After days of making racism on the right the focus of his coverage of the Shirley Sherrod episode, Chris Matthews suddenly asks why part of Sherrod's redemptive talk was at the end of the Breitbart tape. When Howard Dean doesn't remember having seen that part of the tape before, he twists it into something Fox News did. The socialists are as clever as they are evil.

Self-reliance and sustainability in the 21st century.
By Bruce McElmurray
Tags: Remote living, unexpected accidents, self sufficiency., Bruce McElmurray
I often write of the virtues of living remotely here in the mountains but occasionally there is a down side too. For instance recently when we installed a sound bar on our television. Now really, sound bars are easy to install and shouldn't pose a problem even for someone like myself who is severely electronically challenged. When you live 45 miles from the nearest town where supplies can be purchased….well let me start from the beginning.The new sound bar arrived which we had ordered and I read the instruction book regarding the installation process. It seemed simple enough so I mounted it to the wall and commenced hooking up the wires. Up to that point everything went just like the directions said they would. I noticed that some dust had accumulated on the back around the cables so I pulled the HDMI cable out of the TV to clean in all those nooks and crannies easier. With the television now clean I went to plug the HDMI cable back in again. Oops, a little problem now as it would not plug in. Close examination revealed the HDMI cable the satellite installer had used was a pretty cheap one and the end came apart when it was pulled out to clean. After a call to the satellite company to find out ONLY a HDMI cable could be used that meant no television until a proper replacement could be purchased. A two hour round trip into town for a new $27.00, HDMI cable and we were back in business once again. The happy story doesn't end there because as I went to put the information booklet away what did I find? A HDMI cable that initially came with the television still in the cellophane package. It had never been used because the satellite installer had used theirs instead. I view this as not having to make another panic run into town for a HDMI cable should we ever need one in the future. Ah, life is good. Or more recently when I went down to my workshop to work on new kitchen cabinets I'm making. I went to turn the door knob and to my amazement it turned freely without opening the door. I kept turning it, probably thinking it would eventually open the door, which it was not about to do. The tools I needed to remove the broken knob were in the shop where I was initially headed. What to do now? I hunted around and found a large screw driver and an eight pound sledge hammer to use. I carefully forced the screw driver behind the handle mechanism trying not to damage the door in the process. A new door knob is far cheaper than a new door. All the time I was looking around hoping no one would drive by and see me break into my own house. I had fleeting visions of being spread eagled on the ground having to explain I actually live here and my door knob is broken. Finally the outer door knob broke off and I was able to push the rest of the fixture through the other side of the door. Using the screw driver I was then able to finish getting the door open. Now I had a nice round hole in the door and no door knob to keep the door closed. I borrowed an interior door knob until I could obtain a more appropriate one. This would mean another trip into town for a new door knob and dead bolt. I was surprised how easy it was to actually break into our home. We now have a more secure door knob installed. Previously a bear tried to chew the door knob off and left holes in the knob but he couldn't get it off. From his huge foot prints left on the door he couldn't push it in either. That is why I mistakenly thought we had a secure door knob but it pried off pretty easily for me. I guess it is a good thing that bears don't carry around screw drivers and sledge hammers or none of us would be safe in remote country. Often what seems like an easy job turns out to be a two hour trip to the hardware store when you live remotely. These unexpected disruptions come with living as we do and something that you get very used to. If that is the only down side to living as we do - and it is - life is good.

Many decisions go into remote living to decide if it is right for you.
Our typical day living in the mountains in the winter.
We live 300kilos from the nearest town with even a tiny corner store! We learn to do without, improvise or fix everything ourselves. We get to town about once a month, if that, so we also learn to think and buy ahead, as well as hang onto every little thing just in case we might be able to use it for something in an emergency.
That said, the tiny rural post office is almost in our front yard, so we do order a lot online and have it all mailed to us. Much easier than shipping in town and so many online places have free shipping now!

author/illustrator: Matt Phelan
In Kansas in the year 1937, eleven-year-old Jack Clark faces his share of ordinary challenges: local bullies, his fathers failed expectations, a little sister with an eye for trouble. But he also has to deal with the effects of the Dust Bowl, including rising tensions in his small town and the spread of a shadowy illness. Certainly a case of "dust dementia" would explain who (or what) Jack has glimpsed in the Talbots abandoned barn -- a sinister figure with a face like rain. In a land where it never rains, its hard to trust what you see with your own eyes -- and harder still to take heart and be a hero when the time comes. With phenomenal pacing, sensitivity, and a sure command of suspense, Matt Phelan ushers us into a world where desperation is transformed by unexpected courage.

Celebrity Jeopardy! is a special edition of the television game show Jeopardy!, featuring celebrities as Jeopardy! contestants who play for charitable organizations of their choosing (or, in the cases of public officials, relevant charities chosen by Jeopardy!). While exceptions exist (see full listing below), celebrity games have by tradition been broadcast annually as a weeklong event, and on occasion have been called Power Players Week (featuring personalities in politics and journalism).
Each player is guaranteed a minimum winnings amount to distribute to his or her charities, and with a higher guaranteed amount going to each game's winner.
Unlike in regular play, in which a player finishing the Double Jeopardy! Round with a zero or negative score is disqualified from playing Final Jeopardy!, any such player in a celebrity match is granted a nominal score with which to wager for Final Jeopardy!
More recent Celebrity Jeopardy! episodes feature category names that are puns on the celebrity contestants' names and/or works. For example, in a 2006 episode featuring Curt Schilling, Jane Kaczmarek, and Doug Savant, three of the categories were SHILLING, MALCOLM X IN THE MIDDLE, and SAVANTS.
The 2009 Celebrity Jeopardy! competition will be held on the floor of the Consumer Electronics Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The tradition of celebrity matches dates back to the Art Fleming days of Jeopardy! in the 1960s, with appearances by such notable names as Rod Serling, and, for the 2,000th show, Mel Brooks in character as the 2000 Year Old Man. Other notables known to have played the game during the NBC era included game show hosts Bill Cullen, Art James, and Peter Marshall (sometime in the early 1970s).
The following is a list of contestants and the charities they played for, arranged per season. Bold indicates the contestant won his or her game.
Alex Trebek announced Julie Bowen as a contestant in a KABC 7 news report aired August 12,2006, but she did not appear on the press release of confirmed contestants. Cookbook author Rachael Ray, host of Rachael Ray, did appear on the press release, but did not play; Harry Smith took her place.
The winner's charity is guaranteed at least $50,000, while the charities for the non-winners will be guaranteed at least $25,000. $1,000,000 has been given to the charities of the 30 celebrity participants.
A Celebrity Jeopardy! parody with impersonated celebrities has also been a recurring skit on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. These skits usually include an impersonator playing President George W. Bush as a contestant. Clues are sourced from current events. In a twist on the SNL parody, even when celebrity contestants supply accurate responses, they are judged incorrect, with the given correct response being the punchline of a joke, in the fashion of the answer-and-question format of Johnny Carson's Carnac the Magnificent character.

ATLANTA (AP) - Once again, John Grahame and the Tampa Bay Lightning made the high-scoring Atlanta Thrashers look downright feeble.
Grahame shut out the Thrashers for the second time this season, turning aside 20 shots in a 2-0 victory Saturday night that lifted the Lightning back into second place in the Southeast Division.
Vincent Lecavalier and Fredrik Modin scored power-play goals for the Lightning, which won its third straight - all on the road. Even playing for the second straight night, Tampa Bay stifled the Thrashers, who lost a wild 8-6 game in Los Angeles on Thursday and ranked fifth in the NHL in goals per contest.
``They have so much firepower, you have to try to match their intensity,'' Grahame said. ``You give them an inch and they'll score a dozen goals.''
The Thrashers couldn't even get one against Grahame, a U.S. Olympic goalie who also blanked Atlanta 6-0 on Oct. 20. He has three shutouts overall.
Tampa Bay kept up the pressure by sending two forecheckers into the Thrashers' zone, while the Lightning's own defensemen jumped up to contain prolific wingers such as Ilya Kovalchuk and Marian Hossa, who totaled only seven shots and didn't have any exceptional chances.
``They made us look like we were skating in slush,'' Thrashers captain Scott Mellanby said. ``There was a lot of slop out there. Give them credit. They executed.''
Tampa Bay won its third in a row, while the Thrashers have lost two straight after winning seven of eight. The Lightning improved to 53 points - one ahead of the Thrashers, who slipped into the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
``It's only one game,'' Thrashers coach Bob Hartley said. ``It's not the end of the world.''
Modin scored a fluke goal off a double-ricochet in the first period, then Lecavalier iced it for the Lightning with 7:27 remaining. After Darryl Sydor fired a shot off the post, Lecavalier backhanded a loose puck past goalie Keri Lehtonen from the side of the net.
The opening period was largely uneventful until the Thrashers were called for two straight penalties. They killed off the first one, only to have Serge Aubin get whistled for hooking just 7 seconds later.
This time, the Lightning took advantage. Brad Richards attempted a shot from near the left circle, but the puck deflected off Thrashers defenseman Niclas Havelid, then bounced off Fredrik Modin, who was tied up with Atlanta's Andy Sutton in front of the net. Lehtonen had no idea where the puck was as it slid past him for Modin's 19th goal.
``We're not trying to do anything fancy,'' Modin said. ``We're just chipping away.''
Lehtonen came up with one of his best saves of the season early in the second period. Martin St. Louis stole the puck in the Thrashers zone, took off to the Atlanta net and slipped a pass to Lecavalier breaking in alone off right wing.
The Lightning star appeared to have a certain goal, but Lehtonen snatched the puck out of the air with a brilliant glove save as he sprawled across the crease.
Lecavalier got payback in the third, however, with his 20th of the season.
``From that angle, I didn't think he would be able to score,'' Lehtonen said. ``It was a good shot.''
The Thrashers had a couple of good chances on a power play late in the second period. Marc Savard got an open look streaking off left wing, but made an ill-advised pass in front that was broken up by Tampa Bay.
Savard got another chance from straight on with the clock winding down, but his blistering shot caught the post to Grahame's left as the horn sounded. It wasn't clear if the shot would have counted even if the puck had gone in.
Notes: The standing-room turnout of 18,704 was Atlanta's third sellout and the second-largest crowd of the season, surpassed only by the 18,759 that attended the home opener. ... Tampa Bay went up in the season series, 3-2. ... Grahame has 10 career shutouts. ... Lehtonen made 22 saves. ... The Thrashers had won a franchise-record four in a row at Philips Arena.

I'm looking for someone who likes to go out and have fun but is also down with chilling on the couch and watching TV. A hike in the morning, some BBQ and football in the afternoon, and the city at night is a great day.

Doing stuff...and things.
America is Waking Up
This gives me hope for America in general. Not because they're black but because they are fellow Americans who are seeing what a sham the Democratic Party is and how much damage they are doing. They take minorities for granted thinking that just because they aren't white that they automatically have their vote and proceed to treat our fellow Americans like trash and offer them trinkets (Obamaphones, Welfare Checks, Food Stamps) while they rake in MILLIONS off of their poverty, hard work and suffering and send their hard earned tax dollars overseas to people in other countries while their neighborhoods crumble around them and what few jobs are available dry up as businesses are forced to close their doors. Americans don't want a hand out in exchange for prosperity and everyday more and more are waking up and realizing that a free cell phone and a gallon of milk isn't enough to kill their desire for a better job and a better future for themselves and their children. We are all Americans. Together we will take our country back and together we will restore the American Dream.

Staff Reporter
Kochi: M. Natarajan, Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) Chief and Scientific Adviser to the Defence Minister, said synergy of training among the three services in the wake of challenging technologies was the need of the hour.
In his presidential address at the 22nd advisory council meeting of technical training institutes of the three services — Army, Navy and the Air Force — and the Defence Research and Development Organisation at Naval Base on Tuesday, Mr. Natarajan urged the delegates to put in dedicated effort to scale up indigenisation content of defence equipment and associated systems from the present 40 per cent to 70 per cent. Extensive deliberations were also held on enhancing professional training at the institutes. Earlier, Captain V.M. Doss, Director, Naval Institute of Aeronautical Technology, welcomed the delegates to the meeting.
The last meeting of the council was held in Kochi in April 1997 which was chaired by A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, then Scientific Adviser to Defence Minister.

Ok I just watched and rewatched some videos I took of me dancing this weekend and I must say the spotting doesn't look as sharp as it felt while I was dancing and the spins looked slower (granted I do actually forget to spot sometimes when I'm tired, like halfway through a long song :lol BUT it looked like my head is tilted to the side, so that during a spin I actually look like I'm a bit slow and not spotting Anyways, my question: Does anyone maintain a specific head position to make a spin like more crisp versus more fluid. I like contrasts, so I want to look sharp when the spins are faster, matching staccato beats, but I also want to look like the spins flow together when the music is more flowing, less percussive When I intentionally control my spotting on spins it feels like I get the desired effect, but on video is something a little different. Not terrible, just different. Free spins seem ok, they look sharp and spotted, but I'm not sure about lead spins, they seem sluggish. A possible solution is that I need to 'snap' or whip the head around to look sharper and faster. Also I keep getting bumped on the head by leaders (who are mostly used to shorter girls) so I probably tilt my head back or to the side to not get hit :? I've seen some dancers with head tilted slightly down, and also the head looking atright ahead. I think I've employed those too, I just haven't thought about the differences in speed and effect before I'll try to upload and post some videos when I get my conversion hardware to show what I mean
Head weight is a big factor. They say your head weighs as much as a bowling ball. If you are tilted in any direction, it can throw off your spin. I say head straight, aligned with spine.
Africana...I think it's just going to take a lot of repetitive practice (and focus) till you start doing it correctly with any regularity. What I *try* to do is start my body turning and then snap my head at the last second (sounds painful when I'm reading this).
Thanks guys will try to concentrate on moving head last (I actually pulled a neck once doing that lol) I think part of the tilt is a style I absorbed a while ago, besides trying to protect my head/hair hehe. I was watching a famous NY salsera lastnight and she does something similar thing, it's at the end of a set of spins. It feels cool when I've done it in the past, gotten compliments, but I wonder if it slows me down and I don't quite like the look I do also get lazy with the spotting sometimes, especially if I don't expect the lead to spin men (i.e. little or no prep). I need to learn to do it without thinking, just like the prepping torso-twist <sigh>
Tell me exactly how you spin and not whack your leads with those beautiful braids??? (Just saw your picture in the gallery
lol for real! I have to use 2 or more scrunges to tie them up and they still come off. at least it gives me rest breaks in the middle of a dance when I tell the guy that I have to stop dancing and re-tie my hair :lol:
Yes, that's what I was taught, and what I try to do, not only when spinning but in every part of my salsa. I say "try" because people who've read my posts elsewhere on DF will know that I have a terrible habit of ducking my head when I dance which I'm working hard at overcoming. One of my teachers who worked very hard with me on this issue (all credit to her! :applause said to me when she saw me dancing with my head held high, "There, doesn't it make you feel like a queen?" She was right. It does. Rosa
another teacher I know always says "chest up" to maintain balance Re speed of spins and how the spotting looks, it's a totally different result when I wear heels. The spins are faster, although control is sometimes an issue since I'm not used to wearing them. Jazz shoes are a bit slower (depending on floor), so spotting loses the sharp, snappy look. I have to use one foot to get faster spins, but response time, to prep or follow into a prep is still slower. but they're more comfortable and make me more accessible to shorter partners I would wear heels more and learn to like them, but the problem of being lead in spins when i'm on 2-2.5 inch heels is worse they're sexy and fast but I can't stand it when the guy is tippy-toeing to turn me grrrrrr
i've been working on the head snap too. there is a lot of attention paid to it here and the better follows always have distinctive habits... right now i tend to slow down the snap on the final spin of a multiple-spin combination and kind of more languidly whip it around for emphasis, provided the music tempo allows for it.
I would imagine because it's not 3 dimensional and there is probably some delay in any recording. But honestly, I'm not the best person to give a technical answer. I've never enjoyed watching a performance on video especially after seeing it live. I remember showing family members (who couldn't make an event)videos of different competitions or performances...seemed like I was always something to the effect of... "You should have been there! The energy in the place was crazy!, I know it doesn't look THAT exciting....but...". :roll:
When I'm spotting, I try to keep my spot a bit higher than eye level. That way, I can avoid the trap of "looking down" (or looking like you're looking down) and it doesn't throw off my center. My spot is also usually my partner. The guy I dance with the most is about 4" taller than I am, so I use his nose as a spot. Another guy I dance with on a regular basis is about an inch shorter than me, so I use his hairline as a spot. As far as snappiness goes, try holding your spot just a little bit longer before turning your head around. That way, you'll have a little less time to turn your head around at the end of the spin, forcing a bit more speed and more sharpness.
Yes you are on the right track. We measure speed by contrast. We drive fastrer than we assume we are going in winter during a snow storm because we cannot see that are car is moving past the scenery when everything is whited out. We cannot see the sun moving across the sky but we do see it moving down as it sets against the horizon. So we can see three dimensions of contrast in person. But on tv we only see 2 dimmensions of contrast. So our brain is missing a third of info about how fast or slow we are spinning on the video.
I hadn't thought of video 'slowing down' things, interesting 8) thanks for explaining that LM & co! so far I uploaded 2 clips of some social dancing with spins in them http://media.putfile.com/alle2 http://media.putfile.com/hsf1 I see some things I forget to do like prepping (mostly due to extra footwork or taps) analyze away 8)
For the most part, your spins seemed to be fine. You seemed to be spinning at the rate that you were being led, and also in time with the music. I did notice that things appeared to go smoother/cleaner in the clip with the taller leader, and I don't know how much of that was a function of his height (or his experience) when compared to the shorter leader in the other clip. Also, there were a couple of times when your feet started to get further apart during a multiple spin, which may have made it difficult to execute the "paddling" style of spinning. I noticed that happening only once near the end of the clip with the taller leader, but a few times in the clip with the shorter leader. I think at least once (or more), though, the shorter leader's spinning technique seemed to be a little off, which may have thrown you off-balance first, so that you opened your feet simply to maintain your balance and keep from falling. If you are constantly worrying about your balance (particularly with shorter leaders), then I can imagine it would be difficult to concentrate on your feet and your head positioning at the same time.
you are awesome big10 Yes the lead height makes some difference in both my mental comfort level but also in my ability to respond. Another issue is those darned flat shoes. they're comfortable and fairly versatile but because I'm not always on the balls of my feet, it takes a conscious and good prep to make a spin look the way it should look (i.e. less paddling). I'm usually adding syncopations with foot taps and/or body movement which feel better and more grounded when feet are flat. So to switch from that (or when I think I have time to play :roll: ) right into multiple spins tsk tsk I have to play catch up with paddling Also with the shorter guy, I think released the tension in my arm/shoulder too early in anticipation that he wasn't going to spin more than a couple and then tightened too much (which is instinctive but never works) so I traveled right into him. But actually i'd say he's my favorite spinner, mostly cos I don't have much time or warning to prep but somehow it still feels safe 8) I haven't been going out much but want to work on this
2 things.. 1 does anyone else find it hard to spot when the guy is moving around? For some reason it throws me off like if i do multiple spins and hes moving side to side or soemthing i feel i cant come back to the same place cos hes not in the same place...lol 2 after watching the clips and this is a bt of a threadjack, does it bother anyone else when there are 2 congas playing, i find the 2 contrasting rhythms really annoying, the only time ive been in a club where they do that is in NY and its not annoying during the main part of the song but 2 conga solos i find irritating...maybe im just irritable...lol btw your spotting looks fine, it varies from guy to guy who you spin better with, just keep practicing at home without a man and it will eventually make a difference when spinning with a man. its much easier to do what you want when youre in control

The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County
Analysis: Setting
Where It All Goes Down
Angel's Camp, California, mid-19th century
Angel's Camp is a gold mining community in the mid-19th century that the narrator claims to have visited to find Simon Wheeler. Like any mining town in the West, it was populated primarily by men, many of them looking for their fortune. As something of a frontier town, it would probably seem to be full of loud, uncouth, and uneducated people compared to the more genteel East.

Edible marijuana products are pictured on display at a medical marijuana dispensary in Denver on Friday, April 18, 2014. Many of the items are far more potent than a single marijuana joint. Two recent deaths have raised concerns about Colorado's recreational marijuana industry and the effects of the drug, especially since cookies, candy and other pot edibles can be exponentially more potent than a smoked joint.
DENVER — Colorado's marijuana experiment is threatened by the popularity of eating it instead of smoking it, leading the pot industry to join health officials and state regulators to try to curb the problem of consumers' ingesting too much weed.
A task force gathered Wednesday to start brainstorming ways to educate consumers, including a standard warning system on popular edibles, which is the industry term for marijuana that has been concentrated and infused into food or drink.
One idea was to fashion labels on edible pot like the difficulty guidelines on ski slopes, a system very familiar to Colorado residents. Weak marijuana products would have green dots, grading up to black diamonds for the most potent edibles.
"We should have a marking so that when people come in, they know what they're getting," said Chris Halsor of the Colorado District Attorneys' Council.
Marijuana-infused foods are booming in the state's new recreational market.
Some choose edible pot because of health concerns about smoking the drug. Others are visitors who can't find a hotel that allows toking and are stymied by a law barring public outdoor pot smoking. Whether through inexperience or confusion, many are eating too much pot too quickly, with potentially deadly consequences.
A college student from Wyoming jumped to his death from a Denver hotel balcony last month after consuming six times the recommended dose of a marijuana-infused cookie. And earlier this month, a Denver man accused of shooting his wife reportedly ate pot-laced candy before the attack, although police say he may have had other drugs in his system.
The deaths have underscored a common complaint from new marijuana customers — they say they don't know how much pot to eat and then have unpleasant experiences when they ingest too much.
Colorado already limits THC — marijuana's intoxicating chemical — in edible pot products to 10mg per serving, with a maximum of 10 servings per package. Exact comparisons are tricky, because marijuana varies widely in potency and quality, but 10mg of THC is considered roughly equivalent to a medium-sized joint.
Marijuana producers at the meeting warned that Colorado may drive consumers to use untested, unregulated edible marijuana instead of pot packages sold in stores if regulations go too far.
"People do have an expectation of intoxication" when they eat pot, said Dan Anglin of EdiPure, maker of many popular kinds of pot-infused candies.

Which board to get? Burton Restricted Lip-Stick or Gnu Beauty
Trying to decide on getting either the Gnu Beauty 2014 or the Burton Restricted Lip-Stick.
I ride in Ontario with a blue mountain membership. Ocassionally I hit up BC and ride whistler. I'm looking for something that is flexible in mountain and park/jibbing. I'm in probably a intermediate-advanced boarder. Need some feedback please. |

- If you are playing music to a speaker (from an amp) and cross the wires it's now 180 deg out of phase. If you're listening to one speaker, this means nothing, but if you have two or more speakers and one is out of phase it will sound very hollow and spacey. - A mic is just a very well made little speaker (for the most part) but they are wired into the input side of an amplifier (in this case a mic amp). If you reverse the wires on one mic, again it shouldn't make a difference, running two or more mics and then they'd need to all be in phase. So technically you can play music from a mic, and use a speaker as a mic, but simply flipping the wires will just put them out of phase. |

Over the last two decades, researchers have made significant discoveries about the causes and origins of delinquency. Specifically, they have learned a great deal about adolescent development and its relationship to decision-making, about multiple factors that contribute to delinquency, and about the processes and contexts associated with the course of delinquent careers. Over the same period, public officials have made sweeping jurisprudential, jurisdictional, and procedural changes in our juvenile justice systems. The Oxford Handbook of Juvenile Crime and Juvenile Justice presents a compilation of critical reviews of knowledge about causes of delinquency and their significance for justice policy, and about developments in the juvenile justice system to prevent and control youth crime. The first half of the text focuses on juvenile crime and examines trends and patterns in delinquency and victimization, explores causes of delinquency—at the individual, micro-social, and macro-social levels, and from natural and social science perspectives—and their implications for structuring a youth justice system. The second half of the book concentrates on juvenile justice and examines a range of issues—including the historical origins and re-invention of the juvenile court; juvenile offenders' mental health status and considerations of trial competence and culpability; intake, diversion, detention, and juvenile courts; and transfer/waiver strategies—and considers how the juvenile justice system itself influences delinquency.

So yesterday I decided to use my 5 weekly warzones on my newbie Sith Warrior. 2 out of the 5 came up Hutt ball. Sigh. Also it would be nice if there were PvP mission terminals on every planet instead of forcing you to go to the fleet to get them which is a real pain on a non-sub character that doesn't have a ship yet. (Yeah yeah you get what you pay for. Whatever.)

Show our sponsor Giradda the respect he deserves… LETS PLAY HUTTBAL!. seriously huttball is the best pvp map ever made. In organized play (ranked) it's my favorite map. Even pubbing i just love the concept behind it. It actually feels like a sport playing it. Non sub character without a ship yet. You are playing for free and aren't level 15. take it easy homie it aint that bad. |

I don't have an opinion on what you should do now. Maybe Kano is right and you'd get the same deal from another customer like you, or maybe not.
But whatever you decide to do, remember that the manufacturer's warranty is just a guarantee made by the seller/manufacturer, which in no way replaces any other rights you already have. I believe in the EU there's a 2 year warranty period by law, but I ignore the details. In the UK the Sale of Goods Act allows consumers to ask for total or partial refunds if the product bought is not of satisfactory quality. And durability is one of the defining factors of quality. Two plus two is four and I obtained a free repair on a laptop whose motherboard got fried 18 months after purchase (and 6 months after the warranty's expiry date).
Good luck.
