John Narron will be enjoying his coconut birthday cake in his brand new home this year.
The retired lieutenant colonel of the U.S. Air Force turns 85 today and will celebrate it with his family at a dining room at the new State Veterans Home in Kinston.
The facility has been prepped for residents since a ribbon-cutting ceremony in December, and the first one moved in March 27.
Bill Daughtridge, the state Secretary of Administration, officially welcomed the four residents of the new facility on Thursday.
"North Carolina built this new home for our country's heroes," he said during a press conference in the 111,000 square-foot building's lobby. "We need to provide them with what it takes to repay them for what they've given to us. We feel like this facility is a great example."
The $13 million project broke ground in 2007. There are 100 beds at the home, which are expected to be filled in roughly a year's time.
Daughtridge said it was a spacious facility compared to the three other veteran care facilities in North Carolina. He said he was impressed by the amenities during a tour.
The features were similar reasons the Kinston home won over Narron's wife, Marie.
"When we came to tour the place, I told (John), 'You go back home, I'll stay here,' " she recalled her reactions after she and her family toured the place. "It's like a fancy motel. What I really like about it is you can see outside with all the windows around."
John Narron moved in Monday. He lived at home in Greenville, but with only a part-time caregiver. He has to be lifted in and out of bed, has had a few strokes and suffers from dementia, his family said.
"We decided this would be best if we can get him in here," Marie Narron said.
The couple has three children, and one was in attendance with her husband at Thursday's event.
"When he was in the military, we got to live in a lot of places," said Narron's daughter, Amy Barber. "We got to be in a lot of neat countries and travel around a lot. It was a good education experience for his children."
The family lives in Greenville and Barber said they will visit as often as possible.
The State Veterans Home allows visitors 24 hours a day.
Although designed for the nation's veterans, there are some instances where eligible spouses, widow or widowers and Gold Starparents — parents who've lost a child in active military service during war, can reside in the facility.
"Current federal regulations allow us to have up to 25 percent of the population here to be non-veterans in those categories," said Tim Wipperman, director of the North Carolina Division of Veterans Affairs.
He said the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs picks up a significant cost of the residential fees and care and many factors of the new home will provide growth for Kinston.
"When you bring jobs, it's always good for the local community," Daughtridge said about economic growth. "And of course you have visitors coming in to see their loved ones here also. It creates more traffic of people coming into Kinston."
When the 175 job positions of the home are filled, a bulk of employees will be from the area.
Bonnie Ard, originally from Goldsboro, eyed the new building as it was being constructed and finally applied for a job there. She is now the director of health services.
"I have worked in many nursing homes in North Carolina and it is the most beautiful that I have ever seen," said Ard, who has worked in long-term health care for 13 years. "It's a much needed service. There's nothing in Eastern North Carolina for veterans."
The new State Veterans Home is the only one east of the I-95, and there are 800,000 veterans in the state. There are facilities in Fayetteville, Salisbury and Black Mountain, which is the closest in similarity to the Kinston building.
"This will allow the veterans to stay closer to home and in a better facility," Ard said. "I think the veterans and the community will truly be proud."

When a close friend asks you to help re-do their bubble-gum pink, non-descript guest room, you can't say no. You almost feel like you need to stage a design intervention immediately. Everyone has a room like this one: a forgotten catch-all guest room/play room/ exercise room/ office. We decided that it was our duty to save the world (and Connie and Mark's parents!) from this room so we spruced the place up a bit. I mean, anything would have been better than that color pink, and we were game for the challenge.. So.without further ado, here's our first official SuperFab Room Redesign!
Update: Welcome YHL Readers!
For the Stencilled Wall Tutorial and Paint colors click HERE
To see the room with and without accessories click HERE
For the Shutter Headboard Tutorial click HERE
Yay! Doesn't it look incredible? Over the next few days we'll be posting the tutorials on everything you see in the rooms, but for now, let's take a look at some beauty shots, huh? Obviously, the scene-stealer is the multi-colored houndstooth stenciled wall. This was a definite labor of love (we even called in some backup assistance), but it makes a huge impact in the room, don't you think? We love the mix of the classic houndstooth pattern with the modern color scheme. It definitely set the tone for the rest of the room: mixing old with new. We'll be posting a tutorial next week, but if you want to get a jump start on your own, you can visit Royal Design Studio to get this amazing stencil for yourself!
Just take it all in, people. Another fav is the headboard we made out of old shutters (or are they doors? Not sure!) we found at our favorite salvage place, Architectural Antiques. We needed something that would stand out from the wall, command attention, and add some character and and this baby does that. Gorgeous!
This little vignette makes us super happy, because not only is it adorable, but it's totally functional, as well. Since this is their guest room, we made sure to add some towels and an extra blanket to the cart to make their guests feel at home. An $8 industrial cart never looked so good! The metal cubby shelf was a great find from HomeGoods that completes this corner of the room.
We're already planning a sleepover at Connie and Mark's. 😉 We hope you enjoyed our makeover! Be sure to stop back over to see all the juicy DIY details in the next few days.

More than monkey business
Disneynature's 'Monkey Kingdom' is its strongest yet
"Did you know monkeys could swim?" asks Tina Fey in Monkey Kingdom. While she's asking, a toque macaque (a two foot-long monkey with red-white fur and great hair) breast-strokes under the surface of a pond, yanking out lily pad flowers by her teeth and dragging them ashore to munch later.
Turns out monkeys can swim. And slide down telephone poles. And do the thing from Flashdance where you bring down a cascade of water on your head and shake it off in slow-motion.
All will happen in Monkey Kingdom, the eighth film in nine years from Disneynature, Disney's wildlife documentary outlet. > Read more.

Recent Battery-Powered Lantern Reviews
Fenix CL20
My favorite camping lantern. Watch my review! Have fun. Full review
Black Diamond Orbit
A durable, little lantern that can add sufficient light to a tent or campsite. Good for car campers, kids, and those of us hikers who don't mind a little extra weight in our packs if it means more/extra lighting in camp. Conditions:I've been using this for nearly one year in a variety of cool (40-60°F) and warm weather (60-80°F) overnight trips, both car-camping and backpacking. It's been exposed to wet (both humidity and rain) conditions with no ill effect, but never immersed in water. I've… Full review
Black Diamond Orbit
Great little backpacking light. Small but powerful. My initial impressions upon taking the lantern out of the box was "IT'S SO TINY". I almost was disappointed by its size thinking it would be useless. BOY WAS I WRONG! Once I put the batteries in and tested it out I was surprised by the amount of light given off. This is a great little lantern. It is very compact, I love the way the globe collapses down onto the base which makes this even smaller for when it comes time to put it away. I tested… Full review
Mammut Ambient Light Dry Bag
Dry bag that transforms into lantern. This translucent dry bag is pretty simple, except for a small sleeve in its base. This sleeve allows you to place a headlamp in the base which lights up the translucent material turning it into a effective lantern. You can clip it inside your tent, or hang it anywhere. It works really well and is much better then a headlamp for getting changed inside a tent, or anything of the like. Full review
Ozark Trail Fluorescent Camping Lantern
This is a complete waste of money! Only used a few times and won't work properly. Tried new batteries and spent $13 buying a new bulb on Ebay! I should've read reviews on this! And wish I could complain directly to the company! Will NEVER purchase another one of their products! Full review
Highgear TrailLite Mini
A good value for a rugged lantern that is in the middle of the pack in terms of built-in features, battery life, and brightness. I would recommend this lantern for anyone who goes on trips in groups of three or more. It won't replace the headlamp in your pack, but I find it to be useful and affordable supplemental lighting. I picked up the identical Eddie Bauer-branded version of the Highgear TrailLite Mini two years ago on a whim, and so far it has performed up to my expectations, considering the… Full review
Black Diamond Orbit
Bright and compact! I love this little light. Worked great on a canoe trip: hang it from the center tent roof, perfect lighting with ability to dim or brighten. Functions either as lantern or flashlight! Small and compact. It might be heavy for backpackers, but for my outdoor activity, it is great. Takes a bit to figure out the on/off/adjust function but trial and error work, too. Well constructed. I don't think it will break. Collapsible design saves space. A bit pricey for a little light, but… Full review
Coleman LED Micropacker Lantern
Great little compact light, durable and lightweight. This is an efficient little light that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Great for your kids who are just starting out in Scouting and want to have their own lantern. It takes 3 AA batteries and can be either a forward facing light or an all around lantern. I find that if left on I can get at most 72 hrs of usable light from this, but honestly who uses their lanterns straight for 72 hours? I like the little hanger at the top so it can be clipped to… Full review
Black Diamond Voyager
Great features, low output, poor construction. This lantern has all the right ideas, but awkward execution and poor construction keep this lantern from being great. The fasteners for hanging the lantern are great, as is the flashlight mode. The light output is usable, but nothing to write home about. The adjustable brightness is also a great idea, but given that the maximum light output is already low it is not very useful. For the price, I would expect more out of this product. Disclosure: The… Full review

7/28/14 Susan Sarandon's Love Affair
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, July 28, 2014
Apparently, some people have called KATE UPTON "healthy-looking," in a way that's sort of a BACKDOOR compliment. But she doesn't get it. She says, quote, "People say: 'Oh, wow, you're 'healthy'. And [I'm] like, 'Wait . . . what? I've been begging for this body my whole life!'"
Last week, ARETHA FRANKLIN hit up a Johnny Rockets, and almost engaged in FISTICUFFS with an employee, when she was told she couldn't eat inside, because she'd ordered her food TO GO. Aretha stormed out without eating. And the owner has apologized on behalf of the "new" employee.
Chris Martin addressed rumors that he and Gwyneth Paltrow have reunited after their much-publicized "conscious uncoupling" in March. In an interview on Friday, the Chris said, quote "The thing we told everyone at the beginning of the year is true. We are very close, we are not together. But…that's the truth."
Susan Sarandon revealed having an "interesting" love affair with a legendary musician after divorcing her first husband, and before she began dating actor Tim Robbins. In a new interview with The Daily Beast, Susan said she had a fling with David Bowie after they costarred in the 1983 horror movie The Hunger. And 30 years later, she's still gushing over him. "He's worth idolizing," she said. "He's extraordinary. That was a really interesting period." She added, "Bowie's just a really interesting person, and so bright. He's a talent and a painter and...he's great."
7/25/14 Charlize & Sean Engaged?
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Friday, July 25, 2014
Earlier this week we heard that ROBIN THICKE and PAULA PATTON'S house was on the market. That was a pretty strong hint that things weren't going to work out. And now the word is that Robin has indeed admitted that the entire album he dedicated to Paula isn't going to get her back . . . even though it had a song on it CALLED "Get Her Back". A source says Robin is done begging and has decided to move on, and an attorney is already working on a financial settlement. One thing Robin is firm on, though, is that he won't be the one to file for divorce.
CHARLIZE THERON was spotted wearing a ring on her engagement finger . . . which would suggest that SEAN PENN proposed, and she said yes. But that might not be the case. E! Online says Charlize's new piece of jewelry is an 18-karat yellow gold Anita Ko Leaf Ring . . . which sells for $4,900. And that would be on the CHEAP side as celebrity engagement rings go.
BRITNEY SPEARS left her dermatologist's office yesterday with some pamphlets . . . including one for ZERONA . . . which is a LASER FAT REMOVAL TREATMENT According to the website, the treatment is a, quote, "non-invasive body contouring procedure [designed] to effectively remove excess fat without the negative side effects associated with surgical methods."
Alec Baldwin was in court yesterday regarding the May 2014 incident in which Baldwin was stopped for riding his bike the wrong way down a street before being taken into police custody for disorderly conduct. Baldwin refused to apologize. He told the judge that he would rather pay a fine then apologize for the incident. The judge then asked him if he could stay out of trouble and he said, "sure".
7/24/14 Britney's Lingerie Line

Thursday, July 24, 2014
JUSTIN BIEBER was spotted in a wheelchair at Disneyland, leading people to accuse him of just using it to cut to the front of the ride lines. But his people say he's nursing a knee injury, and Disney doesn't make him wait in lines anyway.
There is nothing you will hear today that will affect your world more than this: North West has taken her first steps!! KIM KARDASHIAN posted a picture of herself with North, along with the caption, quote, "Our baby girl finished one week of swimming lessons today then took her 1st steps right when she got out of the pool!!!! Mommy & Daddy are so proud of you!!!! Meanwhile, the "Star" tabloid says Kim is so miserable in her marriage to KANYE WEST that she's BINGE-EATING. And they even put a picture of Kim's increasing BACK AND ELBOW FAT on their cover.
This would have been a GOLDMINE 10 years ago. We'll have to wait and see if it can still catch on: BRITNEY SPEARS is releasing a line of LINGERIE, called The Intimate Britney Spears. You can see a Photoshopped picture of Britney wearing one of "her" creations on the Intimate Britney Spears Facebook page.
The media circus surrounding LEBRON JAMES' free agency created havoc in his neighborhood for about a week. Now, for the inconvenience, LeBron has sent his neighbors an apology note . . . along with a dozen gourmet cupcakes. That's the kind of classy thing JUSTIN BIEBER wouldn't do.
7/23/14 Jay Z & Beyonce Divorcing?
Fine me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Wednesday, July 23, 2014
Sources say JAY Z and BEYONCÉ are going to divorce after their On the Run tour ends later this summer. One source says, quote, "They are splitting up everything (properties, money, children) right now, but will be keeping up appearances until the announcement. They are separating this year, with the divorce to follow in about six months. It will be very clean and very fast."
In the new issue of "Self" magazine, JESSICA ALBA shares her secret for a happy family life. She says, quote, "You've got to have the girls' night out to complain about your husband or whatever it is. You have some fun, then you can go and enjoy the work, and you can take pride in it instead of it depleting you and being a burden."
A new book claims that BILL CLINTON has a busty blonde mistress that his Secret Service guys call "The Energizer", and she makes house calls when HILLARY is out of town. In fact, Bill's security detail keeps in touch with Hillary's, to ensure there are no "uncomfortable run-ins."
CAMERON DIAZ may have dumped out of an interview on an Australian radio station after the host joked about DREW BARRYMORE'S battle with drugs, then tried to bring up Cameron's boyfriend BENJI MADDEN. Cameron said, quote, "We're having to go now. Sorry, they're wrapping us up." And that was the end of the interview.
7/22/14 Highest Paid in Hollywood
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, July 22, 2014
JESSICA SIMPSON is closing down the baby factory after pushing out just two products. On Sunday, she Instagrammed a picture of herself holding a friend's baby, and captioned it, quote, "I love you Jack, but I do not want another!!"
We all do dumb things when we're sexually inexperienced . . . but when SNOOKI lost her virginity, she and the guy may have set a record for stupidity. Snooki says, quote, "We were so young, and I didn't want to get pregnant, so he literally put Saran Wrap on his penis and we tried to have sex, and it hurt him and it was stupid."
For the second straight year, ROBERT DOWNEY JR. tops Forbes.com's annual list of "The Highest Paid Actors in Hollywood." He reportedly raked in $75 million over the past 12 months. THE ROCK is second with an estimated take of $52 million. And Bradley Cooper was third with $46 million.
Before PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN passed away earlier this year, his accountant suggested that he set aside some money for his three children. But he said no, because he didn't want them to be, quote, "trust fund kids." Instead, he left everything to the kids' mother, his longtime girlfriend, Mimi.
In a "GQ" interview, KANYE WEST referred to KIM KARDASHIAN as a "dinosaur" and a "fighter jet", because she's really cool and rare, or something like that. He also called himself a "blowfish" instead of a "shark", because he's not a predator, he just wants to defend himself and others.
KIM KARDASHIAN and KANYE WEST reportedly spend $500,000 on a decoy for their daughter North, so the real kid won't get harassed by the paparazzi. Sources say they held a casting call so they could find a baby who looks enough like North to throw off photographers. And they also have a look-alike nanny to pair up with her. It's not clear how much the nanny is getting paid, or how much work the baby has to do to earn that 500-grand.

Some builds have to have Ant as the driver, but people still want to use Gant (rather than just Groovy). To support this there is the Gant Ant task. The Gant jar contains the Gant Ant task: org.codehaus.gant.ant.Gant. With the Gant jar in the class path, we can create an instance of the Gant Ant task by:
|Code Block
<taskdef name="gant" classname="org.codehaus.gant.ant.Gant"/>
Use the classpath or classpathref attribute or nested tags as needed in the usual way.
The Gant Ant task supports the following attributes:
Default value
The path to the Gant file to use.
The target to achieve.
As an example, explicitly stating both the file and the target a Gant build can be initiated from an Ant script by:
|Code Block
<gant file="build.gant" target="test"/>
Because of the defaults this is equivalent to:
|Code Block
<gant target="test"/>
If the Gant file specifies the test target as the default target then this is equivalent to:
|Code Block
Nested Tags
The target attribute specifies a single target, if multiple targets are to be used then they must be provided using nested target tags. A target tag must have a value attribute. So for example
|Code Block
<gantTarget value="test"/>
Definitions, equivalent of -D... options on the Gant command line when using that, are provided to the Gant executed via the gant tag, by nested definition tags. Each definition tag has a name and a value attribute. So, for example:
|Code Block
<definition name="skipTests" value="true"/>

Maldives Marketing & PR Corporation together with 9 Companies from the Maldives Tourism Industry is currently showcasing its dive and travel products in Hong Kong Diving Resort Travel Expo (DRT). Maldives delegation consists of representatives from 5 resorts and 4 travel agencies. The Expo which started yesterday is participated by tourism boards, resort operators, dive operators, marine conservatives, dive equipment manufacturers and suppliers from Asia pacific region highlighting beach holiday experiences.
This 3-day Expo being held from 15th-17th Dec 2012 at Hong Kong exhibition and Convention Centre is a meeting point for diving enthusiasts, marine conservationists and underwater lovers mainly from Hong Kong and other Chinese communities.
Over 150 top level exhibitors and brands representing leading dive equipment manufacturers, water sports equipment manufacturers, dive resorts, tourism boards, marine conservation and diving organisations are being represented at the event. Over 15,800 visitors are anticipated during the 3 days of the show making it the most important and 'must visit' diving equipment and diving destination event in the Asia Pacific region. The overwhelming response as an important regional event has resulted in the Show being considered as the largest gathering for diving enthusiasts, marine conservationists and anyone with a passion for the underwater world.
Currently the Asia and the Pacific altogether as a region share 40.3% of the total arrivals to the Maldives with China being the leading source market to the Maldives sharing 24.9% of arrivals from January to October 2012. Furthermore, Maldives traditionally being a dive destination, many Maldivian operators see the participation at DRT Expo as a good platform to market their products, create business networks and capture a bigger share of the dive market from the Asia Pacific Region to the Maldives.

I bought these for a Thule Aero Blade rack installation. The 3097's are for fixed-point mounting, so it was pretty easy to get them on. The rubber bottom piece doesn't sit flush on the rear mount points of my factory installed side rails, but it doesn't affect the mount, it's just aesthetic.

Nu Rave Brain Wave Top 10 Albums, Top 5 EPs, and Top 5 7″s of 2011:
Top 5 7″ of 2011:
This is really breezy and effortless pop songs done in the best kind of way from Aussie upstarts Bitch Prefect.
04 The Growlers – Gay Thoughts 7″ (Everloving Records)
It wouldn't be a NRBW list without a mention of the Growlers, but despite having the mp3s of this record for months before the Record Store Day exclusive release, I still waited for over an hour at Origami Vinyl to buy a copy. So, I guess it's pretty good.
03 Brown Brogues – Don't Touch My Hair 7″ (Suffering Jukebox)
Brown Brogues are undoubtably one of my favorite discoveries of this year and this is probably like the best anthem written this year that I'm aware of.
02 Catholic Spray/Assassins88//TV Colours – Split 7″ (XVIII Records)
I would've bought this record for Catholic Spray's sinister, weird garage punk rippers, but the collaboration of hands down two of the best bands in the world the Australian super fuzzed out, stunningly catchy team of Assassins 88 and Dream Damage label mates TV Colours is absolutely astounding.
01 TV Colours / Assassins 88 – Split 7″ (Dream Damage Records)
That's right, Dream Damage's split between these two Aussie bands is the greatest piece of wax I bought this year. Both TV Colours jams have been replayed over and over to the billionth power, they're both sonic fuzz bombs that are so ridiculously catchy and perfect for the gym (this is a compliment, btw). The exact same goes for Assassins 88 side. I just find it hard to fault a single thing either band does.
top 10 EPs of 2011:
05 Bummer High – Lost Highway (Green Burrito Records)
I fell immediately in love with Bummer High's Lost Highway, and it's not all due to the fact that it was released on a label called Green Burrito. Their whimsical, twangin', psych-country-garage is absolutely wonderful and if you like fellow Canadian brethren Demon's Claws, Dead Ghosts, or Indian Wars, this is for you.
04 Toto & The Bad Eggs – Wallet Droppin' (PNKSLM Recordings)
The closest thing to a garage-punk supergroup that the UK is going to see for probably quite some time, Toto & The Bad Eggs contains members of Sex Beet, Jerry Tropicano and Brown Brogues who each take my personal favorite parts of the music they make in their original bands and bring it to this EP. Obviously, it's pretty special.
03 Ghost Outfit – Young Ghosts EP (Self Released)
Haven't been able to stop listening to this Ghost Outfit EP since it's been given to me, which I think was 2010, but fuck it, it's so good it deserves a place on my 2011 list as well. Not only do they make weird and haunting noisy songs, but they also make expert pop songs.
02 The Bell Peppers – Cooking With The Bell Peppers (Self Released)
This fine Manchester duo put out the best self-released EP that showcases their slicked-back, cry-baby garage-blues-r'n'b in the most effortless and just straight up fucking cool way ever. I would buy at least three copies if this was released on any format.
01 The Growlers/Thee Ludds 12″ Split (Palmist Records)
Although the Growlers songs were technically not new in 2011, I think it's a testament that they hold up so strongly to even a fan as well versed in their catalogue as I am — their beach goth, drip-drop-drip, swamp stomps have always sounded incredibly fresh and illuminating and the UK should feel lucky to have this released for them. Thee Ludds frenzied astral-psych-punk pulls strongly from the same 60s references as the Growlers but makes it new like a bucket of water to the face. In a good way.
Honorable Mentions:
Die Jungen – $
Carnivores – Chandelier EP
Ty Segall – Ty Rex
Cosmonauts – New Psychic Denim EP
Thee Oh Sees/Total Control Split EP
Top 10 LPs of 2011
10 Kanye West & Jay Z – Watch The Throne
I'm not angry when people talk about wealth, but maybe that's because the best advice I ever received is surround yourself with wealth.
09 Royal Headache – S/T (XVIII Records)
This record literally came out of nowhere and really hit me hard. I hope I always have a soft spot for succinct, groovy power pop with soulful vocals. The buzzwords I had to use to describe Australia's Royal Headache are grotesque, but this album is incredible.
08 Mind Spiders – The Mind Spiders (Dirtnap Records)
Denton, TX's salvation, Mind Spiders, put this record out in the early portion of the year, but their brand of fast and loose garage rock filled with quick hits, the catchiest song you've ever heard (Don't Let Her Go) and a ballad. This is a whip-smart garage punk record.
07 Cosmonauts – S/T (Permanent Records)
Cosmonauts are one of the most underrated bands to come out of the Burger scene, and this LP is filled with buzzing psychedelic, ramshackle punk punk, and rhythm 'n 12 bar blues jams all jumbled together and vomited back up into the form of this excellent, excellent record.
06 The Castillians – Show Your Teeth (Cold Rice Records)
A long-awaited debut collection of 100% hits from the UK's most underrated garage band, The Castillians, as strong as any I've heard this year.
05 Shannon & The Clams – Sleep Talk (1-2-3-4 Go! Records)
I have the biggest love for Shannon of Shannon & the Clams, and this album is a beautiful dose of weird, wild 50s doo-wop garage-pop that while awesome, always seems (for me at least) to take the back seat to Shannon's incredible voice. But then again, I could listen to hear sing the Wikipedia for Grizzly Bear and it would actually make it worth listening to.
04 School Knights – All Dawgz Go 2 Heaven (Dracula Horse)
I have fallen in love with everything that School Knights have ever done, and I'm not ashamed of that. Although half of these songs had already been released on Rush SK EP, they sound as fresh as ever and the new jams (previously heard by my ears only live) prove that they're one of the best bands that I'm aware of. Their balls-to-the-wall attitude live, their use of absolutely infectuous riffs, drum slammage and heavy use of reverb is flat out perfect on this album.
03 Mellowhype – BlackenedWhite (Fat Possum)
The best rap album that was released (or, um, reissued) was hands down MellowHype. I've always found Hodgy Beats to be the most fascinating member and best rapper in OF, his work with LeftBrain is engaging, thoughtful and most importantly catchy as balls.
02 Bass Drum of Death – GB City (Fat Possum)
This album is an undeniable ass-slaying ripper from start to finish. If it's not tailor made to be played as loud as possible, with heads banging, I don't know what it's for. I do know that each jam could be a stand-alone single. It's effortless, catchy, and punk as fuck.
01 The Babies – The Babies (Shrimper Records)
It's hard to write a sentence about why this Babies record is my favorite, but it's a collection of horrendously underrated treasure pop gems that jangle, fuzz and snap with fervent wildness and a little bit of Americana seen through a garage rock kaleidoscope. It's not certainly not a faultless record but it's gotten better with a year of listening behind me.
Honorable Mentions
The Beets – Stay Home
Black Lips – Arabia Mountain
Pangea – Living Dummy
The Strange Boys – Live Music
Diarrhea Planet – Loose Jewels
TRMRS – Sea Change
Cumstain – Why Don't You Kill Yourself Scumbag Your Mother Wont Miss U

Customer Raves & Reviews
Turned out great
The programs turned out great. They are very pretty and high quality. I had a few troubles with spacing and font and lost some of my work at one point, but other than that it was ok. I had a lot of text I needed to put on my programs and it all fit.
Wonderful Program
This program turned out beautifully for the winter wedding that I am having on December 21! It was very easy to design. When it showed up, it was great quality, on very thick paper and looked elegant! I'm so excited to share it with my guests!
Exactly what I was looking for!
This invitation was perfect for my winter wedding. I could customize it to get the colors and wording exactly how I wanted it. Getting samples ahead of time was extremely nice as well to be able to know just what I was getting.

Wireless Printer
by 70441.2227 - 12/30/12 11:04 AM
I recently bought a wireless printer. It was an aio printer. It would replace three aging printers in my home office. So, I opened up the box and started to read the directions. I quickly found out this was above my skill level. And, the directions were of little help. So, this is my question: How do you install a wireless printer to run on three desktop computers and a laptop computer? By the way, I am not running a network. If you have any questions, I'll be glad to answer them
Thanks in advance,

Source Code : https://github.com/SonarSource/sslr
Download : from maven central
JIRA : http://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SSLR
Community support : feel free to ask any question on the Sonar Dev mailing list
Why Another Tool for Language Recognition ? Why not reusing Open Source and well-know libraries like Antlr or javacc ? This is the first question asked by any developer discovering SSLR. Of course this option was seriously studied and had bid advantages but we decided to start from scratch for the following reasons :
- The Sonar team is TDD addict and we think that existing tools don't fit well with TDD as they require some code generation and doesn't provide any simple and quick way to unit test all part of a source code analyser like a parsing rule for instance.
- The Sonar team is KISS addict and so we think that a java developer should be able to do anything from its favorite java IDE and directly in java.
- This technology is also used to analyse some legacy languages like COBOL for instance which require some very specific lexing and preprocessing features. Implementing those features would have required to fully master the implementation of those existing tools and so we didn't benefit from a black box approach.
- In any case, the ultimate goal of SSLR is to provide a complete stack for source code analyzing which goes far beyond parsing. SSLR will sooner or later provide out-of-the-box the required material to :
- Feed and request a symbolic table
- Feed and visit a control flow graph
- Feed and request a complete graph of dependencies
- ...
Here are the main features of SSLR :
- Easy integration and use
- Just add a dependency on a jar file (or several jar according to what you want to use : lexer/parser, XPath request framework, common rules, ...)
- No special step to add to the build process
- No "untouchable" generated code
- Everything in java
- Definition of grammar and lexer directly in code using Java
- No break in IDE support (syntax highlighting, code navigation, refactoring, etc)
- Mature and production ready
- This technology is already used in production to analyse millions of Cobol, PL/SQL, C, C#, ... lines of code
- Good performances
- Some common rules and basic metric computations available out-of-the-box
- XPath framework to visit the AST
- Development Kit to browse the AST of any source code
SSLR evolves pretty quickly and we hope to remove those limitations sooner or later :
- No way to inject some semantic actions
- No way to tune the AST generation
- No way to create a lexerless parser
SSLR in Action
If you want to start working with SSLR, you must be familiar with the following standard concepts : Lexical Analysis, Parsing Expression Grammar and AST(Abstract Syntax Tree). From there you can directly have a look to the source code the the Javascript(lexer/parser, rules), Flex(lexer/parser, rules) or Python(lexer/parser, rules) plugins to see how those languages are analysed with help of SSLR.
SSLR also comes with a MiniC language which has been created to easily and simply test all SSLR features. This MiniC language can be a good starting point for a beginner to understand how to implement/define the different mandatory layers to analyse a source code :

Kimberly Perry has the powerful voice to pull you into whatever emotion she's singing about.
And on "Pioneer," the sophomore album for her and brothers Neil and Reid — better known as The Band Perry — she masterfully moves between the sad times and the great ones.
When it comes to heartbreaks and double-crossing guys, burning bridges, dynamite and chainsaws are invoked.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, we get the language of beautiful light and keys to the heart on hopeful love songs.
While "Better Dig Two" was the first single to hit radio, this album has plenty of other potential hits.
"Done" speaks of a guy as "one bridge I'd like to burn," then later suggests, "You play with dynamite, don't be surprised/When I blow up in your face." She concludes that when her mother told her to play nice, "she didn't know you when she gave me that advice."
The siblings are joined by Brad Paisley playing the guitar on "Forever Mine Nevermind." It talks of an untrustworthy fellow as a "piece of dirt" and smashing his nose.
"Chainsaw" features some of the album's catchiest lyrics: "Love is shady/Love is tragic/It's hard to bury the hatchet/Holdin' a Chainsaw." Indeed.
Sometimes it's more of a wistful disappointment, as in "Back to Me Without You." It contemplates rediscovering who she was before a relationship that's just ended.
"The slow death of a slow dance/The tailspin of a romance/I gotta get back and breathe the old air in," she sings. At another point, she recites the encouragement of friends to "Get back to what you know/Get back to what you do."
The title track, "Pioneer," carries the message to "Be careful of the careful souls who doubt you along the way," later noting, "Your work is hard/But the future of us all rests on the shoulders of your heart."
"I'm a Keeper" warns a guy of other women's possible bad intentions while reiterating her happiness doesn't depend on a man.
"Don't Let Me Be Lonely" is a portrait of longing: "While we're young and alive/Take the keys to my car and the keys to my heart and just drive."
But the album's hopeful tone is perhaps never struck more clearly than on "I Saw a Light." It recounts finding that special person, noting "You were the very best feeling that I ever felt."
"What if I'd stayed home and done nothing tonight/What if you had looked left and I had looked right/For once in our lives were both on time," Kimberly sings.
And we believe. Whether she is communicating the pain or thrill of love, we're singing along.

BEULAVILLE – East Duplin clearly had the edge in overtime in what was otherwise a competitive soccer match against Dixon on Wednesday night.
The Panthers scored all three of their goals in overtime en route to a 3-0 victory over the Bulldogs that kept East Duplin undefeated in East Central 2-A Conference play.
East Duplin (9-3-1, 4-0) outshot Dixon 5-1 after regulation, and that advantage led to goals by Jairo Herrera, Hernan Pineda and Carlos Araiza.
"I don't know if we did anything different. We took advantage of some breaks and our guys seemed to pick it up in overtime," East Duplin coach Joey Jones said. "Our touches were a little better and we shot the ball.
"The shot count at the end of regulation was like 1-1, and so there weren't many shots and we have not fared very well in those situations."
But the Panthers did against the Bulldogs (6-6-3, 2-2), who defeated East Duplin twice by 1-0 scores last year when they were nonconference foes. Dixon is in its first year in the ECC following statewide realignment.
"The 3-0 score is not indicative of the game," Dixon coach Kevin Hicks said. "This was a great effort by both teams. It was a high intensity game with a quite bit of good soccer. I thought in the second half we played well, created some chances to score, but the ball just didn't bounce our way."
The Panthers finally broke the scoreless tie with 4:52 left in the first 10-minute overtime when Herrera, a senior, scored off an assist from junior Garrett Wickline.
Herrera played a short pass from Wickline and then fired a shot from about 30 yards out. The ball bounced off the hands of goalkeeper Austin Antinori, who was moving toward his right, and landed in the back of the net.
"Everybody knows I have a good shot," Herrera said. "I was just like, 'Lay it off, lay it off' and he (Wickline) laid it off to me."
Herrera's goal just got things going for East Duplin.
Pineda, a senior, scored 3:06 after Herrera's goal to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead. Pineda scored after he got his head on the ball following Herrera's diagonal pass from the right side.
"We couldn't lose like we did last year to them," Herrera said. "In overtime, we were like, 'Come on guys, get pumped up. We have to score one.'"
And just for good measure, Araiza, a senior, made it 3-0 with an unassisted goal with 13 seconds left in the second 10-minute overtime.
"In overtime, the first goal we gave up was unfortunate," Hicks said. "Then after that, we were pushing because we had to score."
Despite the two squads managing just one shot each in regulation, it was the Bulldogs who had more scoring chances in the second half, particularly in the final 20 minutes.
Dixon's Morgan McKinney appeared to have a goal with 8:45 left in regulation when his header following a corner kick was sent toward the goal. However, East Duplin goalie Diego Avila blocked the ball before the Panthers cleared it away.
"At halftime we talked about being more focused and making sure we hit the person who was open," Hicks said. "East Duplin is obviously a very good team and they are very quick so if you're not spot-on with the pass, they are quick to close it down."
Jones said the Panthers' backfield, particularly senior Seth Russ, played well to limit the Bulldogs from finding the goal.
"Seth in the back makes our defense work," Jones said. "He's valuable to us."
And as a result of keeping Dixon scoreless and pulling away in overtime, East Duplin remained in first place in the ECC.
"But it could have changed so much," Jones said. "If they would have won, we would have had the same record."
Dixon 0 0 0 0— 0
East Duplin 0 0 2 1— 3
GOALS—E: Herrera, Pineda, Araiza. ASSISTS—E: Wickline, Herrera. IN GOAL—D: Antinori (3 saves). E: Avila (2 saves). SHOTS ON GOAL—D 2, E 6. CORNER KICKS—D 4, E 3. RECORDS—D: 6-6-3, 2-2, hosts Southwest on Monday. E: 9-3-1, 4-0, hosts Clinton today.

Comments about Gypsy Fortune Teller Adult Women's Plus Size Costume:
Overall really liked the costume. It was fun to wear and turned alot of heads. The colors were great and eye-popping. The only thing I did not like was that the sleeves of the top were not connected to the dress, but rather were sewed to the vest, making the dress sleeveless. There were some plastic straps to hold up the top, but they quickly broke so I had to pin it to my bra straps to keep it up. This also made the vest hang odd relative to the dress. Were it not for this, I would give it 5 stars

The Bryant Park Hotel
40 West 40th Street, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Midtown West
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
The American Radiator building is a strange and imposing landmark, a black-and-gold gothic skyscraper, towering above Bryant Park like something out of a comic book. How pleasantly surprising, then, to find that it houses a boutique hotel that is as sober and restrained as many of its competitors are loud and garish.
Restrained doesn't mean boring—just that the Bryant Park hotel eschews the kind of flashy showmanship that has become all too familiar in the boutique hotel world. The lobby, though decked out in rather unconventional black terra cotta and red leather, feels as serious as the building's facade, without too-clever furniture or whimsical sculptural statements, and the Cellar Bar is true to its roots as well, with vaulted ceilings and tilework reminiscent of nothing so much as a restored subway station.
All the architectural sobriety doesn't seem to be cramping the clientele's style, especially during fashion week, which turns the park into an exhibition hall and momentarily makes the Bryant Park Hotel the most desirable address in New York.
As for the accommodations, a complete renovation from the American Radiator days apparently meant the death of many an interior wall—the rooms today are spacious, especially for a midtown hotel, and boast loft-style hardwood floors. Views tend toward the extraordinary, looking over Bryant Park, and some rooms come with private terraces, not at all New York standard. Expect lush goose-down duvets and rich linens, and massive tubs and sinks in the travertine bathrooms.
The cachet-meter has risen another notch or two with the opening of the New York outpost of LA's painfully hip KOI sushi restaurant. Yet another reason for Bryant Park regulars to stop worrying about Soho and learn to love midtown.

Injured knee doesn't stop Lynnwood High's Arsenia Ivanov
She has played the entire basketball season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament because she didn't want to miss her senior season with the Royals
Then imagine tearing your other ACL three years later.
Terrible as it sounds, it happened to Lynnwood High School basketball player Arsenia Ivanov. But what makes her story so remarkable, so compelling, is this -- she put off a second surgery in order to play her senior season for the Royals.
That's right, Ivanov has played this entire season with a torn ACL in her right knee. Her doctor and physical therapists are astonished, to say the least, and her coaches and teammates are a little bit in awe, too.
"She's a tough cookie," Lynnwood coach Everett Edwards said. "She can take the pain."
It seems the only person not completely dumbfounded by all this is Ivanov herself.
"I knew we were going to have a great season," she explained, "and I just couldn't see myself not playing. It's almost like it's against my competitive nature to sit on the bench, so I told my doctor, 'I want to play.'"
Though the medical folks were dubious, Ivanov won them over by scurrying through some running and agility tests.
"One of my therapists was like, 'Are you sure you have a torn ACL?' He'd never seen someone move like that without an ACL," she said with a smile. "He thought I was a freak of nature."
Her injury occurred while she was playing with her summer AAU team. She was shooting a left-handed layin while going off her right foot when a defender crashed into her from the side, buckling Ivanov's right knee and sending her to the floor in agony. She waited two weeks for the swelling to subside before having an MRI, which revealed the severed ligament.
The irony, of course, is that she experienced an identical injury to her left knee three years earlier, and today she has a surgical scar down the center of her patella. That injury occurred in July prior to her freshman year at Lynnwood, and the operation forced her to miss all of the season except two games at the state tournament.
This time Ivanov was unwilling to miss most of her senior year, and she put off surgery until either the spring or summer.
"She's obviously not 100 percent," Edwards said. "But that being said, she's kind of adjusted her game and is doing great things. … I'm really happy with the way she's played, and we would not be where we are without her."
Ivanov, who wears a large brace on her right knee, is one of many weapons for the Royals, who enter tonight's regional game against Kentwood (8 p.m., Jackson High School) with an impressive 22-1 record. Lynnwood's only loss came in Jan. 2 road game at Monroe, and since that 40-36 defeat the Royals have run off 12 straight victories.
The winning streak includes three at the recent district tournament, including a 61-49 decision against Arlington in the title game.
Fourteen of Lynnwood's 22 victories this season have been by 20 or more points, and one was a 55-35 win in a Feb. 6 rematch with Monroe.
Like many top teams, the Royals win with depth and balance. Lynnwood has three scorers averaging in double figures, but no one averaging more than 12 points a game. Junior Jordyn Edwards (the coach's daughter) leads the team in scoring (11.9) and assists (3.7), while freshman Jordyn Edwards (his other daughter) is third in scoring (10. 4) and first in steals (3.2).
Another freshman, Mikayla Pivec, is second in scoring (10.5), and first in rebounds (13.2) and blocked shots (2.5).
Ivanov, who is second in 3-point goals (28), is one of four seniors on the squad. Another is Linda Wilson, the second-leading rebounder (8.1).
With a win against Kentwood, Lynnwood would advance to next week's eight-team Class 4A state tournament in Tacoma, providing a fitting end to Ivanov's high school career. After all, the Tacoma Dome is where she first played for the Royals three years ago.
"This is my quote," she said. "I started my high school journey at the Tacoma Dome, and I'm going to end it this year with a torn ACL at the Tacoma Dome. That's been my motivator this season."
But Lynnwood's ambitions go beyond just showing up in Tacoma. If the Royals can close their season with four more victories, they will be hoisting the championship trophy.
And that, Ivanov said, "would be a perfect way to end all the trials I've faced. Because you can't get any better than that.
"If we were to go to the Tacoma Dome and win the state championship," she said, "that would be the perfect ending."

A Character is a single token from the Unicode basic multilingual plane. It can also convert to the lowermost 16 bits of an integer.
Each Unicode character belongs to a certain category, which we can inspect using getType():
The surrogate category is divided into the high surrogates and the low surrogates. A Unicode supplementary character is represented by two Characters, the first from the high surrogates, the second from the low. Integers, known as code points, can also represent all Unicode characters, including supplementary ones. The code point is the same as a Character converted to an integer for basic plane characters, and its values continue from 0x10000 for supplementary characters. The upper 11 bits of the code point Integer must be zeros. Methods accepting only char values treat surrogate characters as undefined characters.
To convert a Unicode character between a code point and a Character array:
We can enquire of code points in a char array or string:
Every character also has a directionality:
Every character is part of a Unicode block:
Character assists integers using different radixes:
We can find the Unicode block for a loosely-formatted textual description of it:
Constructing and Using Characters
We can't represent Characters directly in our programs, but must construct them from a string:
There's a number of Character utility methods, accepting either a code point or a basic-plane character, that test some attribute of the character:
