Late Review
October 4, 2014
Wonderful little place. Loved the space for the pups to roam, they enjoyed exploring as much as the rest of us. As well as sun bathing on the upper deck. Though having them along may be why we didn't see much wildlife. This was the last cabin trip Peanut, Chihuahua, got to go on before she crossed the rainbow bridge. We love the house and spacious yard, and enjoyed the hot tub a bunch. The covered area next to the hot tub, fire pit, and grill - were great ways to start and end days. Most of us rarely have time for home cooked meals, so our vacations are often mostly about laying around resting, eating, and visiting. We had everything we needed to cook our meals in the kitchen. The super sized checker board was also a hit! The living room was very cozy and homey. But a review wouldn't be proper without voicing any cons the group had. There were only two big ones we thought folks should know so they don't get upset if they didn't like it. The big one being the master bedroom downstairs(It was super awesome, dogs loved the little fireplace.) isn't really private. No door blocking from the rest of the house, so careful how you're dressed while sleeping. Also the venting is open/shared with the living room. We didn't mind, though it was a surprise our co-renters were hearing our conversations before we realized it. Though it is understandable why this was done, to some it may lead to unwanted eavesdropping. Second was the other downstairs bedroom openly shared with the water heater and plumbing pipes. If you don't mind the noise from the heater & pipes, it's fine. Though one sleeper in that room had to get use to it to sleep. ie: New/strange place to sleep, learning to ignore the little house noises. Overall we highly recommend this house, it's awesome and one of the top rentals we've ever stayed in. We'd love to stay again, though it holds lots of memories of Peanut there as well as another pup that was lost this year to cancer, Dakota. (It was the first time we thought we lost Peanut, but she started breathing again, so it was the start of a long goodbye.) But we keep this contact saved for future trips we may go on! Thanks for such a canine friendly rental! (really with our group it's hard to find such wonderful accommodations!) The group said if you were to upgrade anything, a nice big tub in the downstairs bath would have the vote.

Ten Thousand CutsTen thousand cuts you've made me feel...Ten Thousand Cuts by thehiddeni
Ten thousand cuts these wounds are real...
Ten thousand cuts this much I know...
Ten thousand cuts to you I owe...
Ten thousand cuts notwithstanding...
Ten thousand cuts the pain is never-ending...
Ten thousand cuts you've made me feel...
Ten thousand cuts they never heal.
I Once Saw A ManI once saw a man with a wearied face,I Once Saw A Man by thehiddeni
He gazed upon me with sorrowed grace.
His head was bowed as if to pray,
Crowned with black and strands of grey.
His eyes were strewn with many lines,
Fatigue dwelling within those confines.
His back bent forth like a waning moon,
Cowering from the sun of the afternoon.
His gaze lingered one last time
Before he faded within the lines...
I once saw a man with a wearied face,
Then he vanished without a trace...
An Expression Of LoveStrum my heartstrings like a harp;An Expression Of Love by thehiddeni
Hear me resonate like Orpheus' Lyre.
I wish our melodies will never part,
And from one another our eyes never tire.
For you are the snowdrop in the rain,
You are the barley upon rich soils lain,
You are the warmth from the summer sun,
You are the rosebud from which love was sprung.
May our passion burn ever bright
And lead us through the wintry nights,
So upon the daybreak I may see
These hands still belong to you and me.

Mom | plaid's Blog
When I think of my mom when I was a kid, I always see the back of her head. I see her sitting at the big, boxy CCTV that allowed her to read college textbooks. I remember her learning to use the thing. In retrospect it's kind of odd. Granted, she had too much vision to be comfortable reading Braille. And textbooks on tape (though she had them) had to be a pain in the azz. But still. I know how little vision she has. It ain't much.
So all of my childhood memories of her prominently feature the back of her head while she pores over some textbook.
"How can you flunk third grade math when your mother aced college Statistics fucking blind?"
Dad yelled that at me. My grades were terrible. She got all A's. It sucks to be a child forced into competition with your own mother.
In a way, the best times with her were in Nebraska. Before she got the transplant, and then after, when she'd lost her vision but before we moved to Missouri. Before the transplant she was really sick, but always had time to read to me. Well, kind of. She still had to do all the stuff to be a Perfect Pastor's Wife. So a lot of those memories are of the back of her head, too. Studying and preparing Sunday School lessons, or preparing for some Bible study.
But after she went blind, after the transplant and after the virus that nearly killed her claimed as it's fee her eyes, there were good times there. She needed me. She needed my help because she didn't yet know how to manage blind.
I was six.
And seven. We moved to Missouri when I was seven. But she lost her eyesight when I was six. She couldn't read to me anymore, but I got a little more attention. A little more affection. I got to read to her; a nice reversal of roles.
Even after she'd graduated, I saw the back of her head a lot. Or nothing at all. She'd got mobility the way some people get religion. That white cane freed her like nothing else ever could. She'd walk so fast that the metal tip drew sparks from the pavement.
But I still never saw her. At home she was too wiped to talk. Or we'd play cards but the games got so competitive that it wasn't really mom-daughter time.
So yeah. How pathetic is it that the only time I really had full and complete access to my mother is when she was deathly ill?

- Release Date: Jul 14, 2006
- Starring: Kate Hudson, Matt Dillon, Owen Wilson
- Summary: The wildly comic story of a suburban couple (Dillon, Hudson) who are just trying to make their new marriage work when her and me unexpectedly becomes You, Me and Dupree (Wilson). (Universal Pictures)
- Director: Anthony Russo and Joe Russo
- Genre(s): Comedy, Romance
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 9 out of 29
Mixed: 14 out of 29
Negative: 6 out of 29
You, Me And Dupree isn't terribly democratic about spreading the laughs around; whenever Wilson disappears from the screen, the comedy evaporates in kind.
Like Dupree himself, the film wears out its welcome a little, but is still entertaining.
I don't mean to imply that this film is any good or that it contains an ounce of genuine insight. But as a template for the big-baby genre, it's invaluable.
A limp attempt to wed a romantic comedy to a buddy comedy, largely because the filmmakers see women as visitors from another planet, which is more or less what they now are in Hollywood.

Nov 28, 2012Only sparingly funny, and emotionally forced, this movie in the end finds itself wallowing within the realm of predictability.
DouglasH.Jan 13, 2007Owen Wilson is very annoying in this movie. The movie is only good for one or two laughs.
MarkB.Jul 22, 2006Comedies about the Houseguest From Hell (aka The Thing That Wouldn't Leave) are notoriously difficult to pull off, largely because one Comedies about the Houseguest From Hell (aka The Thing That Wouldn't Leave) are notoriously difficult to pull off, largely because one tends to sympathize too much with the beleaguered captive hosts to find their inability to unload the obnoxious, overbearing jerks who've taken up permanent residence too terribly funny. That's why I never much enjoyed The Man Who Came To Dinner, although What About Bob? tweaked the formula perfectly: the psychiatrist/author played by Richard Dreyfuss was such an unlikable, self-centered prig that it was a real pleasure watching childlike neurotic Bill Murray innocently torture him. My reservations about this subgenre, however, are no excuse or explanation for why the latest example of it is so astonishingly, jaw-droppingly inept on nearly every possible level. Newlyweds Carl and Molly (Matt Dillon, Kate Hudson) take in Carl's recently unemployed, mega-slacker buddy Dupree (Owen Wilson); since the two guys have been best buds for 25 years, Carl's apparently complete naivete about Dupree's triple-digit bad habits and total lack of consideration for his hosts (or the possibility that Carl knew all about them but still subjects his wife to Dupree anyway) seems to indicate a marriage whose lifespan is doomed to make that of Britney Spears and Jason Allen Alexander look like Paul Newman's and Joanne Woodward's by comparison. Mark Twain, in a hilarious essay, excoriated James Fenimore Cooper for blatant character inconsistencies in his most famous character, frontiersman Natty Bumppo, pointing out that Cooper had Bumppo talking like a British nobleman in one chapter in one chapter and an illiterate field hand the next. Twain would have a field day with this script! The three major characters arbitrarily change personalities and qualities for no other reason than to allow the screenwriter to sledgehammer his logistical giant round pegs through a seemingly endless number of square holes: Carl shifts from loving husband to inconsiderate workaholic to near-psycho; Molly from understandably detesting Dupree to becoming his closest confidant; Dupree himself from infantile, self-absorbed creep to naueseatingly beatific New Age Leo Buscaglia clone with no logic, apparent pattern or satiric intent. It's no surprise that directors Anthony and Joe Russo were involved with TV's Arrested Development because this movie looks like eight different sitcom scripts by eight different writers randomly shuffled and run through a shredder. (Hmmm, not a bad idea, actually.) Gags so deadeningly predictable as to possibly make this movie the subject of a drinking game once it hits DVD (although participants shouldn't even TRY to walk home much less drive afterward) and a singularly pointless climactric chase scene in and of themselves wouldn't relegate You, Me & Dupree to its own unique, fetid little circle of Movie Hell, but the moviemakers' truly puzzling, apparent hatred and fear of women (or at the very least, their absolute refusal to try to understand them) is more than enough to do the job. Not only do the Russos not even bother to show us the school librarian that Molly, in one of the film's too-numerous-to-enumarate improbabilities, fixes Dupree up with, but the character is disparagingly referred to BY HER FRIEND MOLLY as a "slut"; Annie, the wife of Carl's second-best friend Neil (Seth Rogen, who was wonderful in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and totally wasted here) is ALSO never seen but is depicted as a shrill, nagging harpy who's a PSA for permanent bachelorhood. (Poor Amanda Detmer!) And in keeping with the general pattern, I guess, even though we see plenty of Carl's manipulative boss and father-in-law (Michael Douglas), we never get to see Molly's mom--didn't she even bother to show up at the wedding?!? Of the leads, Hudson at least manages a few wry facial expressions that make her performance this movie's closest thing to passable; Dillon, who so brilliantly navigated the inherent contradictions of his racist-with-reasons cop in last year's Crash, is totally defeated here; and Douglas, between this and 2006's earlier The Sentinel, seems to be throwing in the towel completely. Worst of all is Wilson as the sock-abusing Dupree; what this movie would describe as his essential "Owen-ness" is nothing more than evidence that he's a one-trick pony who's getting more and more tiresome in movie after movie. For every Wedding crashers, where clever writing and fresh direction are temporary diversionary factors (or Cars, which allows Wilson to depart from the formula entirely) there are three or four Starsky and Hutches, Big Bounces or You, Me & Duprees to reveal how shopworn his bliseed-out stoner act has gotten. Wilson truly is becoming a very annoying houseguest, and he's definitely overstayed his welcome. Time to polish up the act...or start packing.… Expand

LAS VEGAS (January 11, 2007) - Five titles will be on the line January 19 in "Super Fights," co-promoted by Silverhawk Championship Boxing and Knockout Promotions, at Knox Arena in Olive Branch, Mississippi. Two 12-round championship matches, featuring NBA heavyweight champion Sherman "The Caribbean Tank" Williams and world-rated light heavyweight Prince Badi "The Fighting Prince" Ajamu, have been added to the star-studded card, headlined by a 12-rounder between unbeaten B.J. "El Pelogroso" Flores and knockout artist Chris "Cold Steel" Thomas for the vacant WBF and NBA cruiserweight championships, originally scheduled for January 13..
WBF All-Americas champion Flores (17-0-1, 12 KOs) is rated No. 26 by the WBC, as well as No. 3 by the NABF and No. 5 by the IBA. "I feel fantastic," two-time U.S. Nationals amateur heavyweight champion Flores said. "I'm in great shape. We've been rotating three or four guys sparring. We had some misfortune (his brother-in-law died in a car crash pushing the fight back a week) but my mind is alright now and I'm really looking forward to this fight against Thomas. I haven't had a chance to meet and work with my Silverhawk stablemates and it's nice to fight on the same card with Sherman and Prince. I'm hoping we all do well."
Thomas (16-6-2, 14 KOs), fighting out of Chicago, has been in tough against the likes of former world champion Kelvin Davis twice, Emmanuel Nwodo and Felix Coro, Jr.
WBC CABOFE title-holder Williams (31-10-2, 17 KOs) defends his NBA belt and fights for the
vacant WBF Intercontinental crown against dangerous Ralph "Wild, Wild" West (17-9-1, 14 KOs). Williams was preparing to headline a January 27 show in his native Bahamas that has been postponed.
Sherman is riding a six-fight win streak, including devastating knockouts in two of his last three fights. "I'm excited to get back in the ring January 20th," Williams remarked in his delightful Caribbean accent. "I don't know too much about Ralph West other than he's a big guy, around 6-5. I'll have to come in with a good strategy to get inside and throw punches. I was training for the fight in back home The Bahamas but it was pushed back. I'm not too disappointed because it'll happen in March or April when they can facilitate the casino. But I've got this fight in front of me.
"I'm looking forward to do what I do - punch! I've always been a decent puncher since the beginning, but I changed my style, until the last three fights back to the Tank Williams style of boxing. I'm more serious about my training and conditioning, keeping my arms and shoulders strong. I'm sitting down, picking my punches. I establish my jab, get inside and let my punches go. If I connect with my left hook and right cross, it's almost assured they're going to sleep."
Prince Badi (25-3-1, 14 KOs), rated No. 11 by the IBF and No. 13 by the WBO, plans on adding another title belt to his collection that has included the Pennsylvania State, IBC Intercontinental, WBC Continental Americas, WBC CABOFE and NABO championships. The Prince, who extended the great Roy Jones, Jr. 12 rounds in his last fight (July 29), faces veteran Craig Cummings (53-6-1, 43 KOs) for the vacant NBA light heavyweight title.
"I'm excited as always and looking forward to having some fun and taking care of business," the popular Prince spoke about his fight against Cummings. "I know my opponent has had a lot of fights and after watching me fight Roy Jones, I'm sure he thinks he can beat me. But this is a new beginning for me and I'm going to fight my fight. I want to get back to having a shot at IBF champion Clinton Woods. What I learned from the Jones fight was that, even facing adversity, I find a way to keep coming. I'm all heart."

I'm a retired pilot qualified on both fixed wing and helicopters. The bulk of my flying career was with Transport Canada, the Canadian aviation regulator and Nav Canada, the air navigation system operator. Back in 1964/65 I worked as an air traffic controller in Gander located in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. After forty one years living in New Brunswick it was time to come home. A one acre lot was available on the family farm so we're now moved into our new home. I became licensed in 1995 and my callsign from New Brunswick was VE9GFD.
If you go to the listed position from my details and look West on Google Earth Streetviews the house is 150 feet from the road. The physical address is 57 Perth Station Road in the farming community of New Perth.
I run 100w on a Kenwood TS-2000 using a Cushcraft MA-5B. For VHF I use a Cushcraft A148-10S. My mobile is a Kenwood D710 with APRS capability. The antenna mast was constructed by my cousin who has a well equipped machine shop. The primary member is 2" X 2" aluminum tube inside a 3" X 3" tube. The beam is normally at 24' and can be extended to 37'. The mast can be tilted over for maintenance and during extreme weather conditions.

ASIA/HOLY LAND - Prayers and fasting for peace in Gaza and throughout the Middle East
Jerusalem (Agenzia Fides) - In conjunction with the agreement reached between Israel and Hamas for a truce that should ensure the suspension of military actions in the next three days, liturgies, prayers and fasting to be held in the coming days increase in all the local Christian communities in order to ask the Almighty God for the gift of peace. On Friday evening, August 1, in the parish of St. James in Beit Hanina a mass for peace and for the end of the war will be celebrated by Bishop William Shomali, Patriarchal Vicar of the Latin Patriarchate of Gerusalemnme. This afternoon, as every Friday, Father Mario Cornioli, a priest in Beit Jala, will celebrate Mass under the olive trees of the Cremisan Valley and then together with the faithful will recite the rosary in front of the separation wall built by the Israeli authorities. On Wednesday, July 30th, Archbishop Maroun Laham, Patriarchal Vicar for Jordan of the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem, already celebrated a Mass for peace in the church of Our Lady of Nazareth in Sweifieh. "Tonight we are here", said the Archbishop at the beginning of his homily "to pray for Gaza, Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Egypt and Libya. We pray every day, we are confident that our Father who is in heaven hears our voice and sees what is happening".
Meanwhile in Egypt, the Coptic Orthodox Patriarch, Tawadros II called on Coptic Christians to join a 15-day fasting, from 7 to 22 August, to invoke for an end to the suffering of the people of Gaza. While the Catholic Churches in Egypt have already started fasting that will continue until the feast of the Assumption, 15th of August, to ask the Virgin Mary to intercede on behalf of the suffering of the peoples of the Middle East, starting from Egypt. Meanwhile, the Papal Foundation Aid to the Church in Need, in agreement with the Patriarch of Babylon of the Chaldeans, Louis Raphael I Sako, called on "all men of good will" to join the World Day of Prayer for Peace in Iraq proclaimed for next Tuesday, August 6th, on the occasion of the feast of the Transfiguration. The Chaldean Patriarch has also prepared and issued a prayer that all members of the initiative, wherever they are, will be able to recite on August 6 at noon, together with the Angelus. "The Feast of the Transfiguration" the Patriarch writes in his brief message, sent to Fides "is a celebration of the metamorphosis of the hearts and spirit, in the encounter with the light of God's love for humanity. May the light of Mount Tabor, thanks to our closeness, comfort and hope fill the hearts of all those who suffer.
May the message of Tabor, through our prayers, urge the leaders of Countries to sacrifice their personal interests for the general interest of all". (GV) (Agenzia Fides 01/08/2014)

In 2009, Baviera, a member of the UP Law Class of 1954, received a lifetime achievement award from the UP Alumni Association for her 54-year service to the college.
In a feature story about her which came out that year, some of her former students and colleagues had only kind words for Baviera.
Sen. Franklin Drilon hailed her as "a professor's professor."
Then UP Law dean and now Supreme Court Justice Marvic Leonen described Baviera as "probably the only one who can talk about the intent in the drafting of the New Civil Code in the first person."
Former UP Law dean Pacifico Agabin, one of Baviera's early students, remembered her as a "very dedicated teacher."
And for Prof. Tony Laviña, "she's very soft-spoken, but every word is a grain of wisdom."

An emergency room doctor and researcher says prohibition is driving the rate that new synthetic drugs are evolving in Australia.
Synthetic drugs or "legal highs" can be packaged as party pills, herbal highs, bath salts or even plant food, but often contain new and untested chemicals designed to mimic the effects of drugs like cannabis, LSD and amphetamines.
To help stop people using synthetic drugs, the Queensland, New South Wales, and South Australian governments have put a blanket ban on possessing or selling substances other than alcohol, tobacco and food that have a psychoactive effect.
But some say banning synthetic drugs will not help.

Another major player in Tasmania's poppy industry is baffled by the State Government's decision to knock back a bid for a trial of medical cannabis.
Tasman Health Cannabinoids had hoped to run a trial in conjunction with the University of Tasmania to use cannabis to treat nausea and lack of appetite in cancer patients.
Last week, key Tasmanian ministers came out against the plan, with Agriculture Minister Jeremy Rockliff saying he believed the trial would pose a threat to Tasmania's well-established poppy industry.
But chief executive of poppy processor TPI Enterprises, Jarrod Ritchie, has taken an opposing stance, saying he sees it as "an opportunity for Tasmania".

The Tasmanian Government is rejecting calls for tighter regulation of the poppy industry, despite a sharp rise in thefts of potentially-lethal capsules.
The latest data shows the number of poppies stolen has increased by more than 400 per cent, in just 12 months.
But the government says it is still less than the seven-year average and the Tasmanian industry is one of the most tightly-controlled in the world.
It is believed some thefts were committed by tourists wanting a souvenir.

Her popularity never seems to wane, and Gisele Bundchen has just been named the new face of the campaign for Chanel No 5.
As one of the industry's most iconic fragrances, the French perfume's seasonal spread has always been a highly-sought-after gig by top models the world over.
Proving she's a big fan of natural living, Gisele Bundchen opened up to the May 2014 Food & Wine magazine about raising chickens at her Los Angeles home.
In addition to rocking eco-friendly ensembles and creating an energy efficient environment in her California mansion, the supermodel and her NFL star hubby Tom Brady enjoy raising their food as well.
Stepping out for a good cause, Gisele Bundchen arrived at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City last night (May 7).
The beautiful Brazilian supermodel was in the house to attend the Rainforest Alliance Gala and she looked flawless in a Prophetik hemp gown as she playfully posed for the paparazzi.
On the outside, the 2014 Met Gala looked like a prim and proper shindig marked by formal finery and polite interaction, but many of our favorite celebrities gave an inside look at the shenanigans via Instagram and Twitter.
Arriving at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute without her man Tom Brady, Gisele Bundchen was in the house for the 2014 Met Gala tonight (May 5).
Joined by her NFL star hubby Tom Brady, the supermodel as she meandered around the arrivals area in a Balenciaga gown.
It's going to be an evening to remember, and the 2014 Met Gala has plenty to live up to thanks to its long lineage of unforgettable fashion.
And before things kick off at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute tonight (May 5), let's take a look at the Best 14 ensembles from years past.
Showing off H&M's summer collection, Gisele Bundchen rocked a number of sexy swimsuits in the brand's latest ad campaign.
The 33-year-old shows off her fit figure in the affordable retail giant's items in the spread photographed by Lachlan Bailey.
She is known for her enviable body and her good looks, but now Gisele Bundchen is trying out her vocal skills.
In the model's latest commercial for clothing retailer H&M, the Brazilian beauty belts out Blondie's hit "Heart of Glass."

Hang tight!
Recipe by Jerry Schiavo
"Chicken breast sauteed and served with a sauce of butter, lemon juice and Parmesan cheese. Very French, very elegant, and also simple and tasty. This single serving recipe is ideal for one of those nights when you're 'caught up in a world all your own'!"

1/2 cup
skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1/4 cup
lemon juice
1/4 cup
grated Parmesan cheese
This is SOOO easy...after prep time, it took me about 10-15 minutes. Adding about a teaspoon of minced garlic makes it even better. =)
I ran into the same issue other reviewers did. There is too much butter, not enough lemon and the cheese does strange things when added. I tried letting the butter mixture cool before adding the cheese and it didn't really help. The chicken itself did have good flavor though. If I make again, I would cut the butter in half, double the amount of lemon and maybe add a little white wine or chicken broth.

Delicious! I scaled back on the butter, using only one stick for three servings (which for me equaled three chicken breasts). When I first put the parmesan into the hot butter to make the sauce, it scalded and clumped into chunks. So I had to strain them out and pour the sauce from the pan into a small dish, wait for it to cool, then add the cheese and a little water. It turned out fine, and delicious!
This dish was a BIG hit in my house. I have actually found a chicken dish that both of my boys like; which, I might add is quite an accomplishment! However, I too found that the recipe called for too much butter. I used four large chicken breast and added 3 Tbsp of butter with the lemon juice, instead of the 6 Tbsp the recipe required. I had no problems using the canned parmesan. However, after adding the parmesan I lowered the heat to a simmering boil, occasionally whisking it and allowed the sauce to thicken. I also think using real butter, in comparison to margarine, also makes a huge difference in the taste of this recipe.
This recipe is wonderful. A tip for some of the other reviewers: If you were having melting problems it sounds like you may have used canned parmesan rather than fresh. Freshly grated parmesan should be used here.
This recipe was quick and easy to prepare!! A delicious treat to the plain old plain old chicken. I doubled the recipe and used chicken breast strips cut to bite size for the kids, they loved it!! Thanks so much for a great one!
This is my and my husband's FAVORITE recipe! I make just a few changes.. I use the same amount of butter (1/2 cup), but for 2 servings. I double the amount of lemon juice (1/2 cup) and use just under 1/2 cup of fresh grated parmesan cheese. I always make it with smaller chicken tenderloins, which cook so fast, and serve the chicken over noodles with alfredo sauce. The sauce is so delicious, I pour any extra over the chicken and noodles. The blend of lemon juice, parmesan cheese, and butter is just DIVINE! The reason people may have had problems with the parmesan cheese clumping is maybe because they don't have enough lemon juice... I have never had that problem.
I used freshly grated cheese, followed the recipe exactly, and ended up throwing the "sauce" away.
The chicken breasts cooked in the butter & lemon juice alone was pretty tasty.
This won't be staying in my recipe box.

Re: What likely happened to the Cardassian Union after the war
If you are talking about the treaty of Versailles, Whilst terriotiral issues did play a part in the events leading upto WWII it was more the reperations which crrippled the Germany economy that was one of the bigger influences on the events leading upto WWII. And it was actually a Brit, John Maynad Keyes that convinced many of British and American leaders at the time that they were reperations were overly harsh. The French leaders were left largely unmoved.
On the continent of wild endeavour in the mountains of solace and solitude there stood the citadel of the time lords, the oldest and most mighty race in the universe looking down on the galaxies below sworn never to interfere only to watch.

"[This article] takes us back to the Casbah where you haggle forever with vendors over every item," Reinhardt said. "You think you get good prices, but when you add to the prices the monetary value of your time, you probably pay the highest prices there.
"Imagine the appointment phone call when you tell your scheduling person that you wish to see the doctor not over a medical issue, but to haggle over his bill," Reinhardt continued. "Can you just see how charmed the doctor will be by that thought?"
He said the idea of haggling over the "gazillion medical transactions" that happen in this country is absurd and an unimaginable time waster.
"I tell you what would happen: some free enterprisers would reinvent binding fee schedules again, to escape the huge transaction costs of a medical casbah," he said. "That this was penned by a doctor is even sadder."
But Santa said most doctors would take the time to help patients understand their bills.
"Doctors are mission-driven, and I think even those who are business-oriented would step up and help out," he said. "During times like these, a physician who isn't sensitive to a patient's financial needs is ignoring reality.
"If a doctor isn't sensitive to that conversation, I'm not sure he is a doctor you want to put your health under their long-term care," he said.
Santa said patients should not be reluctant to ask for help.
"Patients should not expect something for nothing, but if you approach the doctor by saying 'I understand you run a business, but I'm asking you to help facilitate things for something more reasonable for me,' you'll likely be met by the doctor with a willingness to be reasonable back," Santa said.

I had a go at something called a Functional Threshold Test last night.
I'm using a host of gizmos and an online service called Trainerroad to set up some winter training plans. You have a speed/cadence sensor on the bike, heart rate monitor and a data stick on a laptop to collect the telemetry. As they've calibrated a load of turbo trainers, you select your model and it derives something they call 'Virtual Power.'
It was pretty illuminating, but very, very hard work! It's not actual power output, and on-bike power meters that can do that are really expensive, but it does give you a baseline to work off.
Here's the data, for those who are interested. This is a weird test, as for the main blocks you're trying to go as hard as you can sustain to set your personal baseline, rather than follow the supplied one.

Well, it's me again. Jessica got a bit tied up with our 3-year-old who was pretending to not feel good in order to sleep in the bed with mommy. Well, that worked for Karli, so here I am typing a column.
I guess that in all the hustle and bustle of Christmas and all that goes with it, something slipped up on me, and I nearly forgot about it. In fact, this actually happened two full weeks ago. I can't believe that I nearly missed this or that no one mentioned it.
Over the weekend a lot of things happened in the sports world. The Lady Knights continued their winning ways and look like the No. 1 team in the state. The Knights are still searching for their first win of the season, but anyone who watched their game with Madison Central can see potential. The Kentucky Wildcats had a two game winning streak, their first since the end of November. Now, before you say anything, I am still, and will always be, a fan of the Wildcats. They may be struggling a bit this year, but it's still early in the season.
Yeah, I know that I wrote a column last week and all of you were hoping to hear from Jessica this week. Well, you will have to wait one more week. As soon as I mentioned to Jessica that I had an idea for a column, she jumped on that and here I sit typing away.
Finally. Jessica and I have been to our first competitive basketball games of the season, and it could not have come soon enough. You see, we have gotten so used to having a game to report on during football season, that during that span between football and basketball we were a bit lost. It's a big change when you go from having a regular game to report on to having to find information. I think we handled the transition just fine, but we sure are glad that basketball has arrived.
So in Josh's column last week, he made a statement that I would miss standing on the sidelines of Knights football games. Just to clarify, he meant for this season. I think some people who read the column or maybe just skimmed parts of it, thought that Josh and I were quitting our job as sports correspondents for the Enterprise. However, that is not the case. We are eager to begin covering our third season of basketball and swimming, the winter sports whose regular season games and meets start at the end of this month.
Jessica and I attended the last game of the 2012 football season Friday night. I have to admit, I'm going to miss making those road trips to the away games, and I know Jessica will miss standing on those sometimes frigid sidelines when it's drizzling rain and taking photographs. OK, so maybe I am kidding about that last part, but I know that she's a football fan at heart, and will miss watching the Knights compete on the football field.
Well, since the last time that I wrote a column, three different Marion County sports teams have seen their season come to a close.
Both soccer teams lost their first round 5th Region tournament games, the girls team to Bardstown and the boys team to Central Hardin. The volleyball team, after winning their first round game of the regional tournament against LaRue County, fell to a Central Hardin team that went on to win the 5th Region tournament.

So, we begin digging...
How bad could it get? Pretty bad.
The bike turned over, and as I would discover later, not one of the bolts I touched was frozen, which is a rare and beautiful discovery when stripping old shitpiles. Oops, scratch that. ONE bolt frozen, the barrel end for the autolube cable where it enters the crankcase to pull the oil pump. Other than that, relatively plain sailing. Let the deconstruction begin:
"Dude, you're gonna be pretty surprised and stoked by this. It was kept inside the whole time it's been sitting! It looks rough, but it's in much better condition than it looks..." So it goes with the lines of bullshit people use when trying to somehow polish what is very evidently a turd. Probably should just say, "Look, it's a turd. You know it, I know it. But it's not costing you anything yet, and you are dumb enough to see some nugget of value hidden somewhere in all that turd, so here, take it away." In this case, we will assume that the bike was stored inside an arboretum, with all the indoor oak trees.
That'll buff right out...
Yeah, so will that.
Nothing but the finest materials and most skilled handiwork were used in this bold leap into the disc brake future...
We will assume this is the secret ignition bypass switch. Hidden under the tank, where nobody would think to look. That way, bike thieves would be thwarted in their efforts to make off with this treasure. Seriously, why the fuck is there a switch here?
Okay, first spot of good news, aside from the bolts all turning. The tank is only modestly dented, and there is barely a hint of rust inside it. I'm assuming that the sheen of jellied old premix leaking out of the tank vents acted as a corrosion inhibitor, but seriously, the tank looks good inside.
So, the many cancers are removed and placed in a pile:
the patient's heart is made ready for what will surely be a very invasive surgery:
and the corpse is stripped until only the laughing bones remain:
And now the questions begin. No way am I going to try and return this to stock. Too much missing, so much of what is present is very very bad. So, what I want to do is end up with a lightweight, stripped down little beast that is quicker than stock but won't continually try to eat itself (I have an Aprilia for that), that makes me grin when it hits the powerband, and that can be used to good effect on the twisty roads that are everywhere here. But, this is my first RD. I really don't know jack about them, other than the fact that they are well loved and that there sure does seem to be a mountain of parts options out there for them. For now, the tentative build is looking as follows:
Crank rebuild, balance
Mellow port job, rebore
Squish band work on the head
Bearings and seals as needed
New chambers
Y-boot intake and single K&N filter
While that is taking place, gonna cut some brackets off the frame, blast it and powdercoat it black. Might invest in a fancy swingarm. I've got a couple pairs of shocks laying around that are an inch longer. The entire front end looks like a horror movie, not sure what to do about that.
Gonna need some spoke wheels, probably go back to a drum rear brake. Rearsets. Got an Omar's seat somewhere that looks like it'll fit. End result I am hoping will look a bit skeletal, upright, somewhere between stock street and cafe. The proliferation of brat style bikes has me real bummed out, so I want this to look a bit more spindly and functional. I want it to work that way too.
Questions, for the pro/con peanut gallery:
Premix, or rebuild the autolube?
Electronic ignition, worth it? (I like the possibility of ditching battery for weight reasons alone)
What chambers work best, assuming this is going to be more a mid-range ripper than an imitation TZ?
What hubs fit old RDs, front and rear?
Dear god, what do I do about the front end?
Here we go again!

Sanghiya Samajbadi Party formed under Rai
KATHMANDU, NOV 22 - The crusaders of federalism based on single identity on Monday announced the formation of a new party under the leadership of former CPN-UML Vice Chairman Ashok Rai.
The new party 'Sanghiya Samajbadi Party' was announced at a programme organised at a function organised at New Baneshwor in the Capital. Most of the leaders and cadres of the new party are from the UML and some are also from the Nepali Congress.
The 98-member central ad hoc working committee includes eight vice chairmen, one general secretary, three deputy general secretaries and five secretaries.
Bijaya Subba, Durga Mani Dewan, Prem Krishna Pathak, Bir Bahadur Lama, Rakanm Chemjong, Hemraj Rai, Mohammad Rijwan Ansari and Gopal Thakur have been appointed as the vice chairmen for the party whereas Rajendra Shrestha is the general secretary.
Likewise, Ajambar Rai Kangmang, Radha Timilsina and Norsang Lama are the deputy general secretaries while Mina Gurung, Horilal Chaudhary Karna Bahadur Buda Magar, Ram Singh Yadav and DB Nepali have been allocated the post of secretaries.
Earlier, Rai, along with other disgruntled leaders, deserted the UML after the party stuck to its stance of dividing the country into seven federal states and adopt multi-identity federalism. However, the disgruntled leaders were claiming that such model of federalism can not address the oppression faced by indigenous and marginalized communities.

NC college lockdown prompted by umbrella
RALEIGH, N.C. A major university in eastern North Carolina was locked down for three hours Wednesday when a man carrying a golf umbrella was mistaken for a gunman.
Greenville Police spokesman Sgt. Carlton Williams said emergency dispatchers received two 911 calls about 9:50 a.m. Wednesday reporting a man was walking along a major street near the East Carolina University campus carrying an assault rifle.
Within minutes, the campus alert system was activated, with announcements broadcast over loudspeakers advising students, faculty and staff to stay inside and lock their doors. Written alerts were also sent to campus e-mail accounts and as test messages to cell phones. Nearby elementary schools and a middle school were also put on lock down.
Police soon reviewed traffic camera footage and isolated what appeared to be a man with a rifle sticking out of a backpack.
Dozens of heavily armed officers from at least four law enforcement agencies responded in force, sweeping campus buildings, searching buses and briefly surrounding a nearby house. Snipers took up positions on rooftops. A North Carolina Highway Patrol helicopter hovered overhead.
ECU spokeswoman Mary Schulken said the reaction was justified even though it was based on a false alarm. Universities across the country beefed up crisis plans following the 2007 shootings at Virginia Tech, where a mentally troubled student shot and killed 32 people before committing suicide.
"When a report like that is made, a university has no choice but to respond," Schulken said of the reports at ECU, a university with nearly 28,000 students located in Greenville.
Sarah Schach, an ECU senior, was in class when the alert was sounded. Students turned out the lights and moved away from doors and windows while using their phones and computers to try and learn details, she said.
"It was very tense," she said.
Williams said the situation was also amped up after officers saw Twitter and Facebook posts saying students were being held hostage in a campus building and on a university bus.
Officers armed with pistols and shotguns boarded and searched buses. The campus building was stormed by officers carrying military-style carbines, searched and evacuated.
Doug Boyd, a reporter for the university's in-house news service who was out covering the lockdown, was confronted by officers and ordered at gunpoint to get on his knees. Though it was the first time he'd ever stared down the barrel of a gun, Boyd said he remained calm.
"I wasn't too concerned," Boyd said. "I knew as an ECU employee that it would be straightened out."
Eventually, officers located the man recorded by the video camera and discovered that what was thought to be a rifle was actually just a long black golf umbrella.
"Without getting up close, it looked like the real deal," Williams said.
Classes at ECU were resumed at 3 p.m.
"We are relieved that the reports of this incident turned out to be unfounded," Chancellor Steve Ballard wrote in a message posted on the university's website. "East Carolina University will always err on the side of campus safety when these situations arise."

I replaced the two smaller black relays with four pole relays and they are working fine but I went over the wiring diagram and made sure that it would. Autozone and napa might carry the five pole relay iirc it's also common to Audi and is used both for a fuel pum and a window regulator but I don't know the number.
On my bike one was a load shed relay the other worked with the headlight blinkers and horn. I replaced them both and they went south on me again after about 1k miles that's when I went with the four pole and have had no issues since.
But before spending the money on relays make sure the wiring is in good shape. Before digging the harness open look to see if there is any thing indicating a problem. Like over heated connections. A short buried in the harness will often show itself at the plugs.

There is no such thing as a "perfect" OS, but given that Microsoft's Windows costs a pretty penny and Linux is free, it's a little strange that the latter can do certain things far better than the former. We're taking a look at our favorite ten, which includes the partitioner, automatic logon, troubleshooting, customization and more.
Over the years, the updater inside of Windows has gotten better, but it hasn't come close to the robust updater's for most Linux distros. In the case of Ubuntu in particular, upgrading even from one major version to another is a simple task. You might have to click "OK" to a few things, but that's hardly a bother. And for regular OS updates, you can usually do the process with one simple click.
Unlike Windows, you rarely ever have to reboot after an update either. The exceptions are when hardware drivers are involved (and even then, sometimes a reboot isn't required).
When Linux enthusiasts highlight the benefits of the OS to Windows or OS X users, one of the more common features to raise is the robust software repositories that many distros have. Ubuntu once again has one of the best out there, and with later versions, has made it easier than ever for people to find the right piece of software they're looking for.
Want the Bluefish text/code editor? Simple, load up the Software Centre, search for it, and click to install. It can't get much easier than that. Repositories would be useless with a limited selection of software, but throughout many of the distros I've tested over the years, I don't think that such a thing exists. If you want to install an application for Linux, chances are good it's available in the repository. In some cases, even commercial software is available this way (you still require a serial, of course)!
The first Linux benefit in this article I mentioned was the partitioner, and this interoperability choice follows in the same footsteps. Under Windows, interacting with other operating systems or file systems is a major pain, and in most cases, not an option. If there's an exception, it would have to do with a network device, where you could connect to a Linux computer or NAS box. Even then, the Linux machine basically has to work around itself in order to have Windows detect it.
If you dual boot Linux and Windows, working between the two can be a little frustrating at times. In Windows, you just don't have the option to write something to your Linux partitions. You can't even see the Linux partitions, so reading a file is still a non-option. Compare this to Linux, where you don't only have the option to read to an NTFS partition, but you can write to it as well.
The command-line in Linux is one of the points a lot of Windows users make as the reason they don't want to use the OS. But contrary to whatever's said, most people will never need to make use of the command-line under Linux, and if they do, it's very unlikely that what they have to type in is going to be complicated. Either way, many people are wary of the command-line, and it's unfortunate, because the one found in Linux is extremely powerful and feature-rich.
Under Windows, the command-line is a dreaded tool, because it's beyond limiting. The first reason is simply because you can't go full-screen with it. Rather, it constrains itself to something like 140 characters wide, which complicates things when you are typing out long strings or filenames/folder names. And try to copy and paste with it… good luck.
The opposite is true for the Linux command-line, but there's a lot more to it than that. The command-line here is simply powerful, and you can take care of simple tasks, or extremely elaborate ones. You might say that for simple things, it's just as easy as surfing around the GUI and finding the information that way, but if you become well-versed with the CLI, then nothing's quicker.
Have an application that has somehow gone unresponsive? Under Windows, you're lucky half of the time if ending the process is actually going to do that. But under Linux, a quick "kill -9 appid" takes care of the situation pretty quick. Even to check diskspace is easy. You can 'df' to see the results in bytes, or customize it to see it in other density formats (such as df -BMB for megabyte).
I'm just scratching the surface here, because the amount of flexibility with Linux's CLI is far too difficult to portray with a few paragraphs. If you are wary of Linux with the CLI being your main qualm, don't fret… the CLI is not at all complicated. Plus to be fair, very few things technical are easily done with no prior research.
Many Linux users would likely agree that the OS has always been faster than Windows, but ever since Vista and 7 have been launched, a truer thing has never been said. The benefit of Linux is that most distros have "lightweight" in mind, so chances are good that regardless of your PC, you're going to have a fast-acting OS. On my HP dv2 netbook, which was pre-loaded with Windows Vista, I hit application instabilities often. I now use Ubuntu 9.10 on it, and the difference has been like night and day.
If you really want to sink the time into it, there even exist distros that aim to deliver you the most modular and scalable offering possible. Gentoo is one of these, and it allows you to essentially build your Linux from the ground up. You will have an OS with everything you need/want, and nothing you don't.
But what about stability? Some of the more ambitious Linux users may tout that the OS simply doesn't crash, but that's absurd and no one would ever believe it. That said, I still do believe it to be the most stable OS out there, and that most instabilities that arise have more to do with applications you're using than the OS or desktop environment (this has been the case in my experience).
In all my years of using Linux full-time, I've never experienced what's equivalent to a Windows BSOD (Blue Screen of Death). In the case of a BSOD, the PC is rendered useless until a reboot. As far as I'm aware, this kind of thing just doesn't happen in Linux. The desktop environment might lock up, but you can almost always move to another terminal and manually kill the application or process that's causing the issue (Adobe's Flash has been a common cause of this for me).
Even if your desktop environment happens to crash for some reason, it can't be compared to a BSOD. The last time I had KDE 4.x crash on me, the screen went blank and I was instantly back at the login screen. Unfortunately, whatever I had open was ceased when I logged back in, but the entire process was still far quicker than a BSOD. We're talking a full PC reboot compared to what takes about five seconds.
That said, I've only had that kind of crash happen a couple of times, while I can't recount the amount of times I've experienced a BSOD.
So there they are… my ten picks of things that Linux does better than Windows. In truth, I could have made this "top list" much larger, but these ten are those that have been stuck in my mind for quite some time. There are of course many other benefits of Linux over Windows, such as security, TCO and so forth, but those are rather boring to talk about. Since I deal with both Linux and Windows everyday, I've developed some rather fierce opinions about what Linux can do that Windows should do.
Disagree, or have other Linux pluses you'd like to add? That's what our comment thread is for. As I mentioned in the intro, I didn't write this article as a way to bash Windows, because there are likewise numerous things that Windows does well that I find Linux to be lacking. If there's interest, I could do a follow-up from a vice versa standpoint. If you would be interested in that, let us know!

Asked whether the new proposal would include rebate checks such as the deal passed earlier this year, Pelosi said, "We have done that. There's some discussion as to how effective it was, how much bang for the buck. But certainly they would be in the mix of consideration. … But first we want some of the issues that were not dealt with in the last package, because we want this to truly be a recovery package."
"The economy recovery plan won't turn our economy around instantly, obviously," said Maryland Democrat Steny Hoyer. "However, I am still confident that the financial recovery program will unfreeze our credit markets, protect families' homes and help millions of workers keep their jobs. That is our objective. To get our economy back to health, Congress needs to consider further legislation to create jobs and help families in need."
The Associated Press, ABC News' Charlie Herman, Alice Gomstyn and Zunaira Zaki contributed to this report.
