Small Group of us turned up at Causey Quarry 6pm on the 21st Sep 08, Most of us were Novices with an experianced climber with us. I decided we'd climb the Crack and Chimney Situated in the left hand corner of the main wall.
With the amount of rain we have had latley the wall was suprisingly dry in most parts. Being 6ft 2in in height getting up the first part of the route was quite the challange, as there was an overhang just above the first ledge
this was quite tricky to traverse along with my centre of gravity being off blance. However one got accross fine....Just! once the overhang was mostly cleared there where a few nice foot holds, a few cracks in the stone above
good for jamming. Once up was time to traverse back to the corner, very few foot holds and the ones that are there are just enough to get your toes in, i managed this wearing trainers with no grips (i'd say this was probably the
hardest part). Once i reached the corner it was a case of placing my foot in the crack to levy myself up to the lefge, which had more then enough room for a quick stop to re chalk before heading in the the crack
to chimney up. I found chimneying up the crack was quite easy for me once i got near the top there is a nice large rock for me to get both my hands on and pull myself up, Once i was up as far as i could go, i had to twist my body
so i was once again back against the crack and push out as if i where going to chimney again, this gave me time to have a quick look to see where my next move was. I found a nice sturdy tree root just above my head, wich i found
perfect to help me get my shoulders out of the crack before before lifting myself out completley to reach the top of the climb.
i felt an immense sense of self victory as i have struggled to climb any thing all the way to the top on causey quarry as the novice that i am, but i must admit all the reading i have done over the past few weeks on techniques and
moves has seriously paid off. Now i can't wait for my next challange :)Snowy - TR O/S - 21/Sep/08 with Chris Muncaster

Compositing multiple photos for K-3
9 months ago
I know how to take multiple exposures for a single output photo but the camera wants to pause between each exposure. How do I get it to rapidly shoot 2 or more exposures and average them for the purpose of noise reduction?

text: A daughter haunted by the memory of a morbid love affair suspects that the man who once seduced her has returned to kill her after eighteen-years after being convicted and imprisoned for murdering her mother. Mother and daughter have both had a torrid love affair with the same man, and in the end the mother paid for the transgression with her life. Though the diabolical seducer was quickly convicted and sent to prison, nearly twenty-years have passed and now the woman who was once a frightened young girl begins to suspect that the man who killer her mother has returned to claim her life as well. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

My only worry is that is isn't dumb enough.
pretty sure they're easier to find in safaris than to hatch. i've found 2 safari shinies within 24 hours of each other 3 times

The only shiny i've found in a Friend Safari was a shiny Ralts and it teleported. I forget that Ralts knew teleport while I was hunting......

Ramblings from another nerd on the grid
Gadget Links
Virtual Stuff
Windows Sites
Other Diversions
The Apple 8GB iPod Touch is $229, the 16GB is $299 and the 32GB is $399. Those are the prices at the Apple Store. Anyone running out to buy one? Somebody wake me up when the 32GB is discounted to $299 (at least).
You can get a new generation 120GB Archos player for $399 and although that isn't exactly cheep, it does store many more movies.
While we're on the subject, why not go ahead and get the new Zune 120 for $249? Now there's a deal. I just wish we'd bump the screen size a little larger and wider.
And next week we start rolling out a bunch of new features in the Zune 3.0 software release. Here are some of the goodies coming:
More Ways to Discover Music: Channels and Picks
The new Zune software update taps expert sources, recommendations from the Zune service and online music community, and the user's own play data to create a dynamic, digital music experience where discovering music is easy and seamless.
Powerful Software
The Zune PC software is a free download at http://www.zune.net that provides rich discovery and media management capabilities to help consumers make the most of their existing music collections, in addition to providing access to the Zune Social and Zune Marketplace so they can add to it.
Now all that's left is to start selling the Zune outside the US so that I can finally get one, in the meanwhile the iPod continues to be pretty much my only choice...
Can't wait for the new software :) Should be amazing.
You aren't going to have to wait much longer... :?)
people don't buy the ipod because of it's features, they get because it's cool and their friends have one.
also in Australia I see iPhone/iPod adds all over the place, bus stops, tv, etc etc. Zune? unless you go ask for it in a shop you wouldn't even now its for sale.
I'd actually be curious to see in a survey how many people know what a zune is.
wierdly the only thing that stops me having an iPod is that goddam aweful iTunes. :-(
The target for the ipod/zune just want to play music and videos, not try and understand the technology, and definitly not get into a feature comparison.
Somehow I don't think many people are buying the iPod Touch because it's cool and their friends have one. The Nano or Shuffle maybe, but the Touch?
Why does having to use iTunes become an issue? You can still create your own audio and video rips. Nothing says you HAVE to purchase from Apple.
Zune is great ... :) but i buy iPod because Zune not available in Europe ... that is fail
Yes. Until the team on the Zune stops playing catch up and truly starts innovating the iPod and iPhone will continue to control their respective markets.
I wait Zune in Italy
I'd buy a 120GB Zune if it was available in Norway with a Zune Pass... ;) Please Keith; tell them that I want a Zune over here in cold Norway. :)
I would more than likely own an archos. But work gave me a 60GB Ipod video classic and I cant see spending my own money when it works fine. I dont tend to prefer apple products but free is free. ;)
I'm not running out to buy any of them, my imported 30GB Zune seems to do it's job very well and I like the new 3.0 features such as having Hexic to play on the go.
However, if the 120GB Zune was available here in the UK I probably would run out and buy one, so long as it's not rediculously overpriced like a lot of stuff in the UK.
MS need to pull their finger out and release the player in Europe. I mean, do you seriously expect to compete with the ipod if you are only selling your device in the US and Canada?

CAMEL scores are an NCUA cathartic to purge troublemakers and leave only the peace-loving, brain-dead, grade-grubbing teacher pets that they wish to control with the assignment of a grade.
My credit union lost $23 million when WesCorp failed so I can say I have 23 million reasons to want CAMEL ratings disclosed.
The decline in the number of small credit unions is very visible. I just finished an analysis of the local credit unions in my service area, and I think I have found some interesting information that may explain what is happening. I looked at the last five year period, June...
Nader Moghaddam, president/CEO of Financial Partners Credit Union in Downey, Calif., has been appointed as a director on CU Direct Corp.'s board.
I read with great interest Edward Speed's Guest Opinion [July 18 issue, page 12]. I appreciate Speed sharing his thoughts about regulators, trade associations, CUSOs and business lending. We need to dialog about the issues we face so that collectively we can make the right decisions.
A board of directors has the option to merge, convert or liquidate the credit union. The option to liquidate was proposed by Bill Brooks as a good option that allows members to realize their ownership interest in the credit union, [Guest Opinion: "Merger or Convert? Consider a Third Option," April...
The merger game – its timing, procedures and practices – is coming in for new scrutiny and debate this month among a coterie of analysts and top credit union CEOs.
For some credit unions, being able to get in a car and drive to a piece of commercial real estate that a member is trying to secure financing for is a pivotal part of the lending process. Scoping out the area where that strip mall or office building is located...
In just two nights volunteering on the phone bank SAFE Credit Union staffers recently helped raise more than $15,000 for Sacramento's PBS TV station KVIE.

We've got a local puppet theatre that has performed 'The Hobbit' among other cool stories and is doing 'Rocky Horror' for Halloween! They do a fantastic job and I was thinking of suggesting Lovecraft for next Halloween. What Lovecraft tales do you think would best translate to a fully staged puppet play?
Puppets Performing Lovecraft
Posted 10 October 2013 - 10:06 AM
Posted 16 October 2013 - 03:24 PM
I was thinking 'From Beyond', 'The Cats of Ulthar' or the 'The Music of Erich Zann'?
Posted 28 October 2013 - 07:48 PM
Music of Erich Zann would be my pick out of those I think, I'm sure there are other good ones but I'd have to go back and browse through them to see which ones would fit the format.
If they do it, would the video be posted online?
Posted 29 October 2013 - 08:48 AM
Yes, Zoot Theatre Company usually has clips on youtube.
Posted 29 October 2013 - 09:43 AM
Not actually by Lovecraft, but The Hounds of Tindalos might be another good pick?

Yearning for the likes of Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Boris Karloff, Vincent Price, Errol Flynn, Olivia De Havilland, Fred Astaire, Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Bette Davis, Ava Gardner, Marlon Brando, Bela Lugosi, Francis Ford Coppola, Alfred Hitchcock and more?

Eye Candy: Beard HouseTwo crew members plate cheese courses for Beard House diners on August 27, 2009. The chef, John Newman of Newmans at 988 in Cannon Beach, OR, served a selection of artisanal Oregon cheeses like Three Ring Farm's Rivers Edge Chèvre and Rogue Creamery's Rogue River Blue Cheese.

Eat this Word: SpeckWHAT? Mrs. Sprat's preferred bacon. Writing in The Food of Italy about the Italian Alps region, Waverly Root called speck "the ultimate in pork preparation." Its preparation, incidentally, can't be hurried. The meat is slowly smoked over several months for a few hours a day. "The theory is that if the smoking were done all at the same time," Root writes, "only the outer layer of meat would be really smoked, whereas the slower process smokes it through and through." Cold temperatures and high altitudes also contribute to the process. Speck yields large quantities of fat when rendered. The fat is occasionally poured over bread or used to fry potatoes, and the speck itself is often used as a garnish. WHERE? Wolfgang Ban and Eduard Frauneder's Beard House dinner WHEN?

Eat this Word: PavlovaWHAT? Dancer's dessert. Named for the world-famous Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, this fruit, whipped cream, and meringue dessert is claimed by rival nations. Aussies have long considered it their national dessert, but New Zealanders argue that they invented the Pavlova, and they back up their claim with citations from cookbooks. The dancer toured both countries in the late 1920s. In Perth, Australia, she stayed at the Esplanade Hotel, whose chef, Herbert Sachse, is often credited with creating the dessert some six years later. Supposedly the Pavlova acquired its name after someone proclaimed his dessert was "as light as Pavlova." Others think the name stems from the fact that the ring-shaped meringue resembled Pavlova's frilly, white costume in her most famous role, the Dying Swan. Pavlovas—which are showing up on American tables of late—are traditionally filled with passion fruit. WHERE?
Eye Candy: Beard HouseWhen Jim Foss came to the Beard House last week, he prepared a squab dish that brimmed with full Southern flavor.

Surging Arizona Wildcats roll into Round of 16
Arizona may have been the last team into the NCAA tournament field. Many critics thought the Wildcats didn't belong – and that their stay in their 25th straight NCAA tourney would be brief.
That all changed when the 12th-seeded Wildcats (21-13) beat Utah and Cleveland State to roll into the Midwest Region semifinal, where they'll confront top-seeded Louisville (30-5) on Friday night in Indianapolis.
"People were doubting us and didn't believe we should be in the tournament," forward Jordan Hill said. "We're doing the best we can to show we belong."
Arizona stumbled into the tourney with five losses in its last six games. But the Wildcats have overcome more than a poor finish; they've also rebounded from two years of off-the-court chaos, including the sudden retirement of Hall of Fame coach Lute Olson last October.
"We do have a good story," interim coach Russ Pennell said. "What I really hope comes across is that in life you get dealt some tough things. You have to make the best out of every situation. I hope the guys learn a life lesson from this because all of us go through it."
This isn't the first time the Wildcats have gone to Indianapolis as an underdog. In 1997, they reached the Final Four as a No. 4 seed, only to stun a pair of No. 1 seeds, North Carolina and Kentucky, on their way to their only national title.
This time, the Wildcats are the lowest remaining seed in the field.
Ordinarily, a 12th seed would be viewed as an underdog. But neither of Arizona's victories – over fifth-seeded Utah and 13th-seeded Cleveland State – could be characterized as upsets.
"You get seeded as a 12 seed and that kind of labels you as a Cinderella," forward Chase Budinger said. "We don't consider ourselves a Cinderella team. As a team, we feel we can play with anybody. That label doesn't come to our minds at all."
Indeed, few No. 12 seeds have three players as good as Budinger, Hill and point guard Nic Wise.
Budinger has played 79 of 80 minutes in the NCAA tourney. He's averaging 17.5 points per game and is 14-of-26 (54 percent) from the floor.
Hill got into foul trouble against Cleveland State. But he's averaging a double-double in the first two rounds – 16.5 points and 11 rebounds – and is playing with his usual exuberance.
Wise, meanwhile, has become a scoring machine. After dropping 29 points on Utah in the first round, he scored 21 against Cleveland State.
Wise is 15-for-22 from the floor (68 percent) in the first two rounds.
"(Wise) is playing at his top level and leading our team right now," Budinger said. "Without him I don't think we'd be here."
Many didn't think the Wildcats would be here – and that included some in the Arizona athletic department. When Arizona's red-and-blue block "A" flashed on TV screens during the NCAA tourney selection show, the McKale Center was filled with joyful shouts.

When the local home sales report for May is released Monday morning, it is expected to show the same factors that have bedeviled buyers for months — lack of inventory, higher prices and shorter marketing times.
It also is expected to show that sales of distressed homes in Chicago accounted for a smaller percentage of deals in May than in any month in more than five years, further evidence that the local housing market is on the mend.
Those trends have combined to create a turnaround in some city neighborhoods where there hasn't been much optimism for quite some time.
"The market has changed dramatically over the past 12 months," said Nicholas Signorello, an agent at Signorello Realty.
Within Chicago, the share of closed sales last month that were classified as distressed sales — meaning they were either foreclosures or short sales — was just under 20 percent, the lowest percentage recorded since the second half of 2008, according to preliminary figures from the Chicago Association of Realtors. That compares with a market high of almost 57 percent in February 2012.
Foreclosure filing activity continues to ease, and with fewer homes entering the foreclosure process, there are fewer properties repossessed and then marketed for sale.
"We are almost back to where we were in January 2006 in terms of the number of foreclosures," said Geoffrey J.D. Hewings, director of the University of Illinois' Regional Economics Applications Laboratory. "We are looking at a return to a pre-recession level of foreclosures this November. We're converging on a normal market."
What's missing, though, is a normal level of properties listed for sale. Some potential sellers are waiting for higher prices, while others are unable to sell because they still have no equity in their homes.
As a result, investors and would-be homeowners are competing mightily for properties, driving up prices of both distressed and nondistressed homes. While Wall Street investment firms have curbed their appetite for distressed properties, smaller, local players continue to buy foreclosures, rehab them and sell them at much higher prices.
Local home flippers had an average gross gain of $86,700 per property last year, according to Redfin, a real estate brokerage firm.
That flipping activity is affecting buyers, who are seeing higher prices on foreclosures and move-in-ready homes alike.
In the Gage Park neighborhood on Chicago's Southwest Side, one-third of the 36 homes listed for sale last month were either foreclosures or short sales, according to the Realtors group. In the 12 months that ended in May, 64 percent of the 138 homes that sold in the neighborhood were distressed properties and the median sales price of those properties was $66,650, up 13.5 percent from a year earlier. Meanwhile, the median sales prices of traditional properties rose even more during the 12-month period, by 15.2 percent, to $100,500.
A brick two-flat in Gage Park owned by the same family for 61 years and in need of some updating came on the market for $152,000 earlier this month. After seven days and six showings, it went under contract, to a couple frustrated by their attempts to buy a foreclosure.
"The good (foreclosures) are going, the bad stuff is getting worse," said @properties agent Mabel Guzman. "The excitement about buying a foreclosure is gone. They're looking at time versus money."
Other areas of the city's South and Southwest sides also are showing a pricing recovery.
In Brighton Park, the May median sales price rose 35 percent year-over-year on distressed residential properties and almost 44 percent on traditional properties. In the Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood, the median price gains for distressed and nondistressed residences were 25 percent and 51 percent, respectively. In the Clearing neighborhood, median prices rose 35 percent among distressed properties and 14 percent among traditional properties.
"The market is flooded with investors right now," said Frank Montro, an agent at Oak Realty. "The South Side is making a very big comeback. It's refreshing to see."
Signorello listed a rehabbed foreclosure in Clearing, near Midway Airport, late last year for $224,900 that an investor had bought in July for $69,000. It sold last month for $210,000.
"Were we on the top end (of the market)?" Signorello said. "Absolutely. We showed it 100 times. Most people didn't want to spend that much money, but we found the right buyer. It's setting a benchmark."
Rising prices and rehabbed homes are causing prospective buyers to consider areas they may not have thought of a few years ago. Still, these areas have a lot of ground to cover to repair the damage done during the housing crisis.
The downside of rising prices, however, is decreased affordability.
"That's the weight that comes with all this," Hewings said. "The irony is that in the middle of the recession affordability was at an all-time high, but you couldn't get a mortgage or people didn't have jobs. That affordability issue is going to be a greater concern going forward."

Period-Determinations for Eight Variable Stars
pdf ps
Joseph Manella
Maria Mitchell Observatory,
Nantucket, Massachusetts
Eight variable stars on
which I worked at the Maria Mitchell Obsrvatory the summer of 1974 are listed
in Table I. All were in the region of λ Sagittarii. Six of them, V517,
V518, V519, V620, V1666 and V1702 Sgr were assigned to me by Dr. Hoffleit for
updating their periods, her previous determinations having been based on plates
taekn prior to 1952. The other two stars, IU Sgr and suspected variable star
4277, I rediscovered with the blink microscope. For period-determination the
Nantucket NA plates and Harvard plates of the A, B, and MF series were used.
Most of the stars required only slight period corrections.

Several opportunities are on the anvil for women who are keen to make a career in costume jewellery. They can work for top brands and can start their own outfits from home as there is tremendous demand from the younger generation, according to National Institute of Fashion Technology, Kolkata designer Rumeet Singh.
Speaking at a workshop on costume jewellery designing organised by Samana Institute of Fashion Technology (SIFT) here on Monday, Ms. Rumeet said more and more young girls were using costume jewellery instead of the traditional yellow metal along with their regular attire like jeans and salwars. "The mindset of the youth is changing and they wish to wear accessories matching their dress," she felt.
"Costume jewellery is not only gaining popularly in India but also has tremendous response from the Indian Diaspora. With more and more shopping malls coming up in cities and towns, women entrepreneurs can make a mark for themselves and create their own brand by using their creativity," Ms. Rumeet added.
Rumeet, along with another designer Basu (also of NIFT) interacted with around 35 students on various aspects such as selection of stones, moulding, making and crafting of jewellery like finger rings, bracelets, ear rings and necklaces. "Costume jewellery is made of less valuable materials including base metals, glass, plastic, and synthetic stones in place of more valuable materials such as precious metals and gems," she added.
"The rolled-gold business at Machilipatnam is a classic example of the popularity of costume jewellery. Hundreds of families not only make their both ends meet but offer opportunities to many in the town. We are offering the course with the best of faculty from Kolkata's NIFT along with two professional designers from Hyderabad," said Samana Institute of Fashion Technology chief executive officer Samana Moosavi.
SIFT has introduced an 18-month course in costume jewellery designing and the course commences on June 1.

Oct 30, 2012If the album never quite reaches the tune-packed heights of 808s, the overall listen is utterly melting.
Oct 23, 2012Bossalinis & Fooliyones is a taut, humble and profoundly aware medley of late afternoon joy--the best time to listen to it.
Oct 23, 2012Many of the tracks on Bossalinis & Fooliyones focus on typical hip-hop fodder, like struggles with women, weed, money, and success, but--when successful--avoid feeling contrived due to their heavy sense of apathy.
Oct 30, 2012On their proper full-length debut, a sound in danger of stagnation has been brightened and reconfigured in appealing ways.
Dec 7, 2012The beats are straighter and more polished, and a degree of shine has replaced bedroom-engineered grit. [Dec 2012, p.75]
Oct 23, 2012Bossalinis & Fooliyones, while not exactly what you'd call a mainstream rap album, is consistently accessible, and in thrall to a tangle of overground production styles.
Oct 23, 2012Like a lot of young artists who've been flash-fried by the Internet, these guys also aren't so much great as they are getting better, using public interest to spur themselves on. Bossalinis is cleaner and more varied than their mixtapes, but this album is also long.
Oct 30, 2012Bossalinis & Fooliyones is, at worst, an amiable enough diversion, at best it's very entertaining.
Oct 23, 2012When they do keep it 'cloud'--with the dissolving beauty of 'Cloud Body' and the fairytale-like 'Love Is Life'--the results are remarkable. But elsewhere, romance and originality suffer.
Dec 12, 2012Bossalinis & Fooliyones is a perfectly plain little rap album, one that's 70 minutes long for no real good reason and comes and goes with little remarkable occurring either good or bad.

White Sox
Red Sox
I chose Tampa just for their Cinderella story, but it was a tough decision to make against the White Sox (and the Griffey factor), although I won't weep over Ozzie Guillen being miserable. Torre's story is a good one too.
In the same way that a baseball season never really begins, it never really ends either. - Lonnie Wheeler, "Bleachers, A Summer in Wrigley Field"
The Baseball Emporium - Books & Things, that's Rallyonion.com
The Baseball Bookstore
Well, I'd have to say the Rays. The following is my tortured logic.
I really can't root for anyone in the NL:
- I hate the Cubs. Period. I really hope they gag up a huge hairball and go all Steve Bartman and goat and all that. Cubs fans don't deserve the Curse getting broken.
- I used to hate the Dodgers and still carry a sincere dislike for them.
- About the only Phillie I ever liked was Mike Schmidt.
- The Brewers are the team I dislike the least, but I still don't like them very much. A very luke-cold adoption of this team that I will abandon at my whim.
In the AL:
- The White Sox are from Chicago and that's close enough to the Cubs for me. I know Griff is on their team, but even if they win it, he won't have a whole lot to do with it and he'll just be riding on others' coattails. So that doesn't carry a lot of weight for me. Maybe I'll feel different as the playoffs progress.
- Angels are from LA and I don't like LA.
- The first couple times the Red Sox won, I was happy for them and their fans. Unlike Cubs fans, their fans did deserve redemption. But they are getting a little too Yankee-ish for my tastes and have slid down the pecking order.
So that leaves the Rays. A nice story, somebody fresh and new, and I like a manager who wears glasses like Maddon.
Teach tolerance.
We really are a bitter bunch, aren't we?
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
The Cubs are my second favorite playoff team.
First Place is a tie between Phillies, Brewers, Dodgers, Rays, BoSox, ChiSox and Angels.
"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."
I voted Rays, but Cubs are a close 2nd. I just want to have a massive party in the loop again.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
However, if Jr and the Sox can get past the Rays and are fighting it tooth & nail to make it into the WS then I may tune in for a bit. Normally however I don't condone adopting other teams, I love baseball but more than that I hate to root for anyone but my team. I take the stance that if my team doesn't make it to the postseason then neither do I, needless to say it's been quite a long drought for me.
"You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one."
--Woody Hayes
"Reality tells us there are no guarantees. Except that some day Jon Lester will be on that list of 100-game winners." - Peter Gammons
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
Actually, I do enjoy watching post-season baseball mostly for its quality.
One thing I'll say for the MLB 162 game season is that it does separate the men from the boys. The teams in the playoffs have earned it. And usually both teams are playing their hardest.
I'm disappointed in that the Reds aren't in it because I am a Reds fan. But I'm also a baseball fan and enjoy watching a well-played game (not long ago I watched a Rays-BoSox 14 inning nail-biter game start to finish and that White Sox-Twins game was a good one last night).
Teach tolerance.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
The Rays. I suggested them as the team for my dad to put some money on in Vegas at the beginning of the season and he did. I feel smart.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
There's a good film to be made about Halston, the dashing man who went from Iowa-born milliner to revered fashion designer to self-popularizing entrepreneur to AIDS-era casualty, but dear Lord, Ultrasuede is not it. The doc comes on like a bio but is really just a ghastly vanity affair for one Whitney Smith, the son of a socialite who, despite minimal credits to his name, feels entitled to make Halston's story his own. With zero knowledge of fashion and proudly informed by only a vague notion of the designer's jet-setting coolness, Smith can't get beyond his own hard-on for the '70s—get ready for more tired, grimy stories of Studio 54—to engage with what's compelling about his subject. It's only in passing and in between self-parodic shots of Smith cruising around in an old Trans Am that we learn anything about the designer's biography, his professional trajectory, even his first name. Granted access to such fashion luminaries as Stephen Burrows, Naeem Khan, and Diane von Fürstenberg, Smith is more interested in peacocking his own dismal sartorial sense—he's on camera for every interview, often sporting his own sub-Spurlockian 'stache—than finding out how Halston recalibrated American glamour and why he tried, well before top designers targeted Target, to bring high fashion to the masses. Sitting across from Halston's dear friend and muse, Smith makes even Liza Minnelli seem less delusional by comparison.

Ex-Murray Energy Employee Sues Over Campaign Contributions
A lawsuit by a former Murray Energy worker says she was fired for not making campaign contributions to preferred political candidates. The Charleston Gazette reported the lawsuit was filed Sept. 4 in Monongalia County Circuit Court and seeks damages, back pay, reinstatement to her position and legal fees and costs. In the lawsuit, Jean Cochenour says she received written requests from CEO Bob Murray to donate to specific candidates. The letters asked for specific donation amounts. She was fired in May from her job as a prep plant foreman at a mine in Marion County. The company says Cochenour failed to perform her job and that's why she was fired.
Smoking Ban Considered in Brooke County
Another West Virginia locality is considering going smoke free. The latest is Brooke County, which will take up the proposed smoking ban at a hearing in early October. The move comes weeks after Hancock County went that route, according to The State Journal. Health Department administrator Karen McClain says officials are weighing a ban in all enclosed public places as well as outdoor places like fairs, festivals and playgrounds. A public hearing has been set for Oct. 6.
Investigation Continues After St. Albans Body Found
Police are investigating after a body was found in St. Albans City Park Tuesday, and the preliminary autopsy results point to homicide. St. Albans Police have identified the victim as 20-year old Micah Burdette of St. Albans, and his body was found by a hiker late Tuesday. The final autposy results haven't been released yet. Anyone with tips should call 727-2251 or email email@example.com. The investigation is ongoing.
Capitol Complex Renovations Are Back On
State officials have revived a project to renovate Building 3 at the Capitol Complex. The renovation was put on the back burner after a bid opening in 2011 came in more than $6 million over the project's $27 million budget. The Department of Administration began a redesign of the project in January. Administration Secretary Ross Taylor says the project should go out to bid early next year and be completed in late 2016. The Charleston Gazette says Taylor gave an update on the project Tuesday to an interim legislative committee.
Drivers Work Around Issues Tuesday Afternoon
Two problems forced street closures Tuesday afternoon. In St. Albans it was a water main break that had drivers rerouted. It happened Tuesday afternoon at Second and Main streets, and Second Street between Kanawha Terrace and Sixth Avenue were closed for several hours. In Dunbar, it was a gas line rupture that had traffic diverted for a time. The Dunbar Fire Department said a 4-inch line on Dunbar Avenue across from First Avenue was hit Tuesday afternoon by an excavator, and it has been repaired.
Coal Layoffs Could Be Coming This Fall
Patriot Coal is warning hundreds of miners at its southern West Virginia operations they could be laid off. The company is based in St. Louis, and says federally required warning notices were issued Tuesday to 360 workers at its Corridor G mining complex near Danville. Patriot spokeswoman Janine Orf said the warnings do not necessarily mean all 360 will be laid off at the end of the 60-day period. Previous layoffs in Danville have already reduced the Patriot workforce there by nearly 100. The company said in a statement that increasing federal regulations, mild summer weather and low natural gas prices have slashed thermal coal prices, in some cases below operating costs at Appalachian mines. The Danville mining complex produced 2.3 million tons of thermal coal in 2013.
More Vehicle Inspections Are Coming
The West Virginia Public Service Commission plans to increase commercial vehicle inspections on roads considered as high crash areas. The PSC said Tuesday that the one-year enforcement effort will be funded with a $180,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. Commissioner Ryan Palmer says in a news release that the grant will give PSC officers more hours on the road. Among the targeted roads....the West Virginia Turnpike. Inspections also will increase statewide on roads affected by Marcellus Shale drilling traffic. The enforcement effort will run through September 2015.
Tuition Assistance Offered at Many WV Businesses
An audit has found that 70 percent of West Virginia state agencies offer employees tuition assistance for post-secondary education. Legislative auditor Aaron Allred wrote that 80 agencies help pay for schooling or reduced tuition rates. Sixty agencies require submitting a formal, written plan to the IRS about how the programs should work. Two were not able to produce their plans. The audit was released to a legislative committee Tuesday. The report reacts to a May audit of former Attorney General Darrell McGraw's office that found the office reimbursed more than $54,000 for employee education without paying appropriate federal taxes. It also discovered the office had no written program plans.
Body Found in St. Albans
Police are investigating after a body was found in St. Albans City Park Tuesday. St. Albans Police say in a news release that a hiker called 911 to report someone lying in one of the parking areas, and detectives from the Kanawha Bureau of Investigation and detectives from the Special Enforcement Unit of St. Albans police were called out to investigate. No cause of death yet, but investigators have said it's a male, about 20-years-old. They know who he is, but his name will not be released until his family is notified. His body was taken to the State Medical Examiner's Office for an autopsy.
West Virginia Among The Most Obese States
A new report by two public health groups shows West Virginia and Mississippi have the highest adult obesity rates in the nation. The report released Thursday by the Trust for America's Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation found adult rates at 35.1 percent in both states. Colorado continued to be the thinnest state at 21.3 percent. The study showed 20 states now top 30 percent obesity, up from 12 states in 2010. Nine of the 10 states with the highest rates are in the South. Trust for America's Health executive director Jeffrey Levi says to reverse the trend, efforts need to start in early childhood to promote healthy eating and increased physical activity.

US Presidents

About the list
This list includes only those persons who were sworn into office as president following the ratification of the United States Constitution, which took effect on March 4, 1789.
There have been forty-three people sworn into office, and forty-four presidencies, due to the fact that Grover Cleveland served two non-consecutive terms and is counted chronologically as both the twenty-second and the twenty-fourth president. Of the individuals elected as president, four died in office of natural causes (William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Warren G. Harding, and Franklin D. Roosevelt), one resigned (Richard Nixon), and four were assassinated (Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, and John F. Kennedy). The first president was George Washington, who was inaugurated in 1789 after a unanimous Electoral College vote. William Henry Harrison spent the shortest time in office at 31 days in 1841. At over twelve years, Franklin D. Roosevelt spent the longest time in office, and is the only president to serve more than two terms; he died shortly into his fourth term in 1945. The current president is Barack Obama; he assumed the office on January 20, 2009, and is the first president of African American descent. He is also the first president born outside the Contiguous United States, having been born in Hawaii.

Excellent Customer Service - the BEST Customer Service I've ever experienced! The product was received with one of the wine glasses broken, I called Wine Country Baskets and they were extremely friendly and pleasant to work with and said they would send a replacement. To my surprise, I received the complete basket again with a very nice apology note! This type of customer service WAY Exceeded my expectations! UPS deliver was the only challenge to get the basket. Because it contained wine UPS claimed they could not leave it with anyone over 21, it had to be me. I was traveling a lot and it made it difficult to schedule a delivery, then the package was lost by UPS. But, during the entire process when I called Wine Country Basket they were such a pleasure to work with, always professional and took care of everything, including contacting UPS and re-shipping.

A Nice Gift Basket

The basket was well packed, shipped, and delivered. The wine is still waiting to be drunk. The truffles were excellent but the cookies were broken into many crumbs and pieces. The card was hidden in the packing and should have been included within the basket. All said, it was a nice give, well received

Got this for my mother when she purchased some property near us. She loved it. Personally, I'm a bit tired of having to re-unsubscribe from the promotional e-mails every time I order from this company. Either I'm missing a box when I order or they automatically start sending messages after each order and I have to unsubscribe.

Greenhouse Gases Threaten Public Health
In a draft proposal sent to the White House on Friday, the United States Environmental Protection Agency said greenhouse gas emissions pose a significant threat to public health and welfare.
The proposal outlined what it calls an "Endangerment Finding for Greenhouse Gases under the Clean Air Act," which could shape the future regulation of greenhouse gas emissions.
"I think it's historic news," Frank O'Donnell of the environmental group Clean Air Watch told Reuters.
"It is going to set the stage for the first-ever national limits on global warming pollution."
"This finding will officially end the era of denial on global warming," said Rep Ed Markey in a statement.
"Instead of allowing political interference in scientific and legal decisions, as was the case in the previous administration, the Obama administration is letting the sun shine in on the dangerous realities of global warming."
John Walke, a senior attorney at the National Resources Defense Council, told AFP that "the language of the Clean Air Act that triggers the need to regulate emissions from vehicles."
"They make findings that greenhouse gas emissions not only endanger public welfare — ecosystems, the environment and the planet at large — but also make the important link between global warming emissions and how they will affect smog pollution, malaria and other public health problems," he said.
In April 2007, five of nine Supreme Court justices ruled that carbon dioxide was a pollutant under the Clean Air Act. However, the Bush administration refused to acknowledge the decision and no regulations were put into action.
The proposal could initiate a cap on carbon emissions by Congress, said Eileen Claussen of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change.
Congressional Democrats support a cap-and-trade plan to cut emissions.
"The Bush administration refused for eight years to take action over the greatest crisis of our time and manipulated and ignored science in order to pursue inaction at all costs," said Walke.
"Now, within the first three months of the Obama administration, you have this announcement that they will take global warming seriously and take action to reduce C02 emissions," he said.

Citing the "change is possible" mantra, PFOX has filed an amicus brief in the Prop 8 case arguing against marriage rights for gays.

Ice cream is a great indulgent treat, and one that you can make at home. Using an ice cream maker is fun and easy. You can create countless different flavors and experiment with your mix-in ingredients. There is a wide variety of ice cream machines available for use in home, with a product to fit every need and budget. With so many options to choose from, it is helpful to have a basic understanding of the different types of ice cream makers on the market.
The original ice cream machines were made from buckets and hand-cranked. The ice cream was created by the chemical reaction produced when rock salt and ice were mixed. To make ice cream with this type of machine, the ingredients were placed into one bowl, which was then put into another, larger outer bowl. The space that was created by the difference in the bowl size was filled with a salt and ice mix. The reaction between the salt and ice caused the ice cream ingredients to begin freezing, and a hand-turned paddle attached to the bucket ensured the ice cream froze evenly. You can still purchase this type of maker today. For those wanting a traditional experience, hand-cranked, bucket-style ice cream makers are available. There are also electric bucket-style makers for more modern sensibilities, which work the exact same way as the manual machine with the exception of the paddle being turned by electricity.
Newer, solely electric ice cream makers can make larger batches of ice cream at one time than a hand crank bucket can produce. One style of machine has a removable bowl with a gel solution between the walls of the bowl. When placed in a freezer, this gel will solidify and freeze. When the solution is frozen, the bowl is fastened back into place on the machine and ice cream ingredients can be placed into the bowl. Then, the machine is powered on and an electric paddle mixes the ingredients as they freeze. Some models are made to rotate the bowl itself instead of utilizing a paddle.
There is also another type of electric ice cream maker that does not require rock salt and ice or a freezer bowl. Because the appliance itself has a built-in freezer system, it is self-cooling and efficient. Nothing has to be prepared ahead of time; the ice cream ingredients simply have to be poured into the machine and the appliance started. This is the simplest of all the ice cream machines to use, and produces ice cream faster than any other maker. However, this type of machine is more expensive than others, which may be an issue if budget is a concern.
All the ice cream makers described will produce excellent, tasty, quality ice cream. Among the three major types of machines, there are various brands and models to choose from. This gives you an even greater range of options from which to choose the perfect ice cream maker for you.

Today, May 4, Sunday, marks the 85th birthday of Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn.
Google celebrated the event in its characteristic manner, with a Google Doodle dedicated to the star.
Hepburn worked in the Golden Age of cinema and has been repeatedly listed by the American Film Institute as one of the greatest female screen legends of all time. The actresss was known for both her resplendent beauty as well as her dedication to humanitarian causes. Her role in Roman Holiday was the first time an actress received an Oscar, a BAFTA and a Golden Globe for a single performance. She died an untimely death because of abdominal cancer in 1993. In honour of the legendary actress and humanitarian, here are five feel good movies you should consider indulging in today to give yourself a break from the infinite expanse of elections and scandals you're being made privy to on a daily basis.
*Funny Face
In this remake of the Broadway musical Hepburn stars with Fred Astaire to tell a romantic tale that is charming and yet critical of idolising and false presumptions. Hepburn plays the part of an introverted amateur philosopher Jo Stockton who is initially critical of Astaire and him photographing her as a fashion model but eventually warms up to him and quite predictably the two fall in love. The plot line greatly differs from the broadway version but it must be given a chance for the music and surprisingly entertaining performance from supporting cast member Kay Thompson.
*Paris When it Sizzles
If yo u never thought Hepburn and self-referential humour are not really the easiest pair to find, the search ends at this gem of a film. The pairing between Hepburn who plays a fiery secretary to an artistically clogged screenwriter played by William Holden, she helps inspire his next hit by bringing to life a number of scenarios which also include countless references to both Hepburn's and Holden's previous works.
*Wait Until Dark
So perhaps not all Hepburn's movies were the vanilla showered romantic tales we expected. The 1967 adaptation of a play of the same name, the movie deals with far darker themes than most of her other work considering the plot revolves around a doll stuffed with heroin hidden in Susy's (Hepburn's) apartment. She plays the blind wife of a man who is unknowingly dragged into a plot to recover the drugs and whether or not she fends off the men trying to enter her home is what the plot is centred around. Not one of her best known works, watch it just to get some idea of the actress' versatility.
An adaptation of the play 'Sabrina Fair' Hepburn plays the daughter of a wealthy family's chauffeur who eventually grabs the attention of the family's two eligible sons. Co-starring Humphrey Bogart and William Holden the exchange of affections between the three undergoes a number of changes before the movie's climax where in an out-pour of emotion, Hepburn and Bogart sail off into the sunset. On a ship. Try to not feel jealous and enjoy the fantasy.
*Breakfast At Tiffany's / Roman Holiday / My Fair Lady
No explanation needed for any of the three. Her most popular and claimed by many to be her best as well, these three are universally adored and regarded as some of the best made films to date.

Bruins are in Stanley Cup finals denial
Updated: June 5, 2011, 1:11 PM ETBy Scott Burnside | ESPN.com
VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- If the goal of the Boston Bruins is to stay close, their two games to start the Stanley Cup finals were a roaring success.
If, however, they were actually planning on winning a game, to say nothing of the four games it will take to carry home the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1972, the Bruins head home having accomplished nothing beyond digging themselves a man-sized hole from which they must crawl out of in the coming days.
It took ...

BORING, Ore. (AP) -- The Clackamas County sheriff's office says a man wanted on outstanding arrests warrants is in jail after he barricaded himself inside a Boring home Saturday night.
Spokesman Nate Thompson said Sunday that deputies tried to stop 58-year-old Raymond Wilebski as he was driving in his car toward his home. He ran from the car into the home and barricaded the doors.
Wilebski's mother came out of the home, and a SWAT team tried to persuade the son to surrender. After nearly two hours, deputies used chemical munitions and Wilebski walked out of the house.
He was lodged into Clackamas County Jail on his outstanding warrants as well as attempt to elude.
