"I picked this card because I thought the graphics were best for a 5 year olds party. The text spacing was limited but the customer service department was excellent at warning me of issues and correcting my mistake. I was surprised that it was so small (I had envisioned a larger card) and I would have liked to put a little text on the back. But, it'll be a fine invite for this party!"
"I really liked everything about the card. My only wish is that I was able to write a message on the back - especially since it's a pool party and wanted to add additional info about rain location etc."
"Most kiddie invites are too bright and cartoonish. These still embrace the childhood whimsy while staying classy and timeless. Very good quality paper and I upgraded to the colored envelopes and was very happy."
"The invitations we ordered are wonderful! The quality of the paper is superior - Iwebelieve it will be a keepsake for many of our guests. We were extremely pleased with the color and quality of the picture we uploaded - and each invitation showed this unique quality. The printing, font, and colors are so professionally done - one would never know it was designed and submitted online. Also, it is important to point out how user friendly the website is and also how good the communication is following an order. We received an email advising of our order's review and even that our one special request had been completed. We will definitely use Tiny Prints in the future."
"I loved these invites for my son's 4th birthday. The quality was excellent and everyone commented on how adorable the invitation was."

Time is running out. For those of you in head-to-head leagues, anything can still happen, assuming you've made the playoff bracket. But for those in rotisserie style leagues, it won't be easy to gain ground and move up in the standings now that there are only a dozen or so games remaining for each NHL team.
With that, here are five left wings that are available in the majority of Yahoo! Fantasy Leagues and could turn out to help you during these last couple weeks of the regular season:
Pascal Dupuis (owned in 34 percent of Yahoo! Leagues) -- The energetic forward has 5 points in his last three games and at least one point in seven of his last nine. With Sidney Crosby due back tonight, there's a definite possibility that Dupuis will line up on Sid's wing at some point -- if that's the case, Dupuis should be extremely valuable down the stretch.

I recently discovered Wella despite spending half my life in Sallys getting myself, mostly in, and out of trouble. Usually I buy Ion but Wella was running a sale b2g1 free and I've been really disappointed with Ion.
I find Wella to be much much MUCH truer to the swatch, which is saying something if you're hair is nonvirginal (my hair is a total slut, in this regard) and over processed (ah yes, me as well)
Also, the end result is so so so shiny and my hair doesn't leave the process feeling fluffy and dry like it does with box color.
Moreover, the wella gel mixes really really well with developer (unlike Ions which is impossible with a mixing brush and bowl) thus u get a really uniform color. Its also interchangeable with other developers (for the longest time I thought u could only use their demis with their 'developing lotion', but no, any brand works).
Some cons are that the smell is really really potent. Eye wateringish. But if you're drying your hair, you should come to terms with unpleasant smells. Also, 2oz of this + developer doesn't thoroughly saturate my hair like other brands. I think the gel makes it harder to spread around, idk.
If you're used to box color you'll also find that while the color is only 4.99, you'll be spending extra $ on gloves, tint bowl/brush/bottle, and developer but honestly its well worth it.
All in all, I rate Wella 5/5 esp the red shades. Which, btw, if you're looking for the most amazing, rich, natural shade of red hair that people will constantly compliment u on, my mixture is 2 parts 8rg + 1 part 7wb and .5 part (yes, half) 5rg. [I.e. 2 oz 8rg, 1 oz 7wb, and 1/2 oz 5rg plus 7 oz developer] sounds like alot but really it blows any salon color I've ever gotten out of the water. Oh, and one more thing, though the color tubs come with measurements, if u want u can just use tablespoons (I.e. 2 tbsp 8rg, 1 tbsp 7wb, etc] just as long as you're double the amount of developer :)

I have been using Wella colour/toners for probably about 6.5 years now. I've tried several different colours both the liquids and the gels.
My only complaint is the horribly strong smell! No other brand compares to how bad it is, lol.

I have been using this product for several years now. The gel consistency is great, does not drip. I have my son do my hair, LOL and with the 20 developer mixed in it costs appox $4.00 an application. Great product and a tip that I learned is to weigh it rather than measure it. I have a good food scale and it works good. 30 grams gel colour and then add 60 grams developer. A perfect mix every time. Oh yes, I am naturally a meduim brown and I use a 9N to get a very light blond :)

I have medium brown hair (I have been coloring it truffle or chestnut color for years). I wanted it lighter and slightly "blonder" - basically I wanted the rich honey color. I got the ColorCharm dye in Caramel. It gave in a light golden brown color, without the red, which is exactly what I wanted. It is still a bit dark, so I am going to try Tan Blonde shade next.
The dye is very easy to use and mix. The consistency is a little weird when you first start mixing it - it turns into a chunky custard/flan thing, but then thins out a bit. I kept it on for 45 minutes and it was fairly easy to wash off. The hair felt like straw in the shower, which scared me a lot. I used L'Oreal Total Repair 5 Damage-Erasing Balm as an after-color conditioner. I let the hair air dry and it fells like silk and looks very healthy and shiny.
Overall, I am very pleased with the results. The shade selection is really nice too!
P.S. My sister is blond and used the Titian Red dye, which gave her a beautiful coppery/strawberry blond result.

After months of at-home experimentation with different blonde dyes to get my medium/light brown hair to a light ash blonde, I have found my HG. I was trying to gradually lighten by re-dying my whole head every 6-8 weeks with 30 vol. developer and various Ion and Wella dyes, and a drugstore box dye on one occasion (pointless).
The last time I dyed my hair, I used Wella Color Charm 8A (the liquid one), but it ended up darkening my hair rather than lightening it, and the resulting color was not at all like the swatch. However, I was impressed by how much it reduced the ginger tones my hair loves to pull, so I wanted to try a lighter shade of Wella Color Charm.
So last night I gave the 9A Color Charm gel a shot on my strawberry dark blonde hair. I mixed it 2:1 with Ion 30 vol. developer, and left in on for 40 minutes. I am now a convincing, natural-looking medium blonde, and best of all, there is no brass at all! This is the most flattering blonde color I've ever pulled off at home, and the first time I've actually been pleased with the tone. It is not quite the level of ash I'm going for - I want almost grey-ish blonde hair - but I'm thinking with a toner or another dye, I should be close enough.
Other thoughts: the gel is less drying than the liquid Color Charm, which was noticeably more damaging than the Ion Color Brilliance gel dyes I'd tried previously. The smell of the gel is also less noxious than the liquid Color Charm. And I love that because of Wella's 2:1 developer:dye ratio, you end up with quite a bit more dye than with dyes that require 1:1 ratios. When I was using Ion Color Brilliance, the 1:1 ratio mixture was not enough to cover my long hair. This time I actually had dye leftover.
I was about to give up getting the ash blonde hair of my dreams due to my limited success, but thanks to this product, it actually seems achievable. Wella is much better at ridding brass than Ion Color Brilliance, so if battling the ginge is an issue for you, give it a shot!

So my hair is naturally a medium ash blonde, but in the summer I lighten up substantially to bright barbie blonde thanks to the sun. However, in the winter, it goes back to the medium ash color. To even out the color, and correct brassy tones from chlorine, I use 8A medium ash blonde (blue based) with a level 10 developer, mix, apply, and let it sit for 45 minutes. It rinses out well, and is a pretty, neutral ashy blonde, very natural, but not too dark.

My hair was a warm, golden tone with a few brassy and red tones left over from a previous dye. I wanted rid of all the red tones, which were very almost gone - so I bought this in shade #740 Light Ash Blonde and to accompany it I bought the T28 Natural Blonde toner and Cooling Violet additive just in case. I used all of these with the Wella 20 vol Creme Developer.
In retrospect, I should have maybe tried the toner first and see what that did to my hair because the shade I've ended up with is a nice ashy blonde or "bronde" colour, (think Taylor Swift right now) so no real complaint here - but it's darker than I had intended. However, I will never ever go back to box dyes - the vast selection, pricing, packaging, value for money is all there with Wella Color Charm collection. Would definitely buy again.

I bought this is lightest golden blonde because it looked the most similar to a honey blonde (think Jen Anniston) anyways it turned my roots orange. I used the 20 developer because I didn't want to do a ton of damage and my hair is a light brown to dark blonde color normally. But still my roots are orange but the rest of my hair is slightly tinted the color I wanted just not as light. I went over it twice today and still no luck. :( now I have to walk around with orange hair.

Awesome product. Been dying my hair for years with boxed colors from the drugstore. Finally tried wella after reading many reviews and am very happy. I've usually dyed blonde (naturally a dark blonde and dyed to a medium/light golden blonde) but dyed black last year for a change. This year I was sick of black and missed my blonde and wanted to go back. I bought a box of bleach from the drugstore and ended up looking like carrot top!! Not cool. Tried a brass banisher, and another box of bleach but my hair was still pretty orange. So I did some research and bought a packet of wella's lightening powder and mixed it with a 20 volume bleach and left it on about 30 minutes. That got me almost to the banana yellow stage, with my natural dark blonde roots. Then I deep conditioned and dried my hair and put on 9A, palest ash blonde for about 15 minutes all over my head. It looked a bit dark when I had it in my hair but it rinsed out and dried and I couldn't be happier! I deep conditioned again and left a leave-in conditioner with olive oil in and my hair is so soft and definitely not damaged looking. The smell was a bit strong, but no other complaints. Highly recommended :)

Yesterday I had used a garnier nutrisse white chocolate, which is quite the beautiful colour, but just not for me it washed me out so much! So I settled on going to sallys and getting a shade that wasn't ashy anymore as I figured i'd end up with white hair so I decided that a honey blonde it was! I picked up the shade 1036and put it on my hair for around 15 minutes and problem solved! Beautiful summer blonde hair and no brasiness to my surprise, as I still had some red undertones from a previous dye. My only complain is the smell its horribly overwelming!

But that doesn't mean the funding for the Aurora hotel will be affected.
The giant project, mired in lawsuits and controversy, depends on substantial work starting to lock in an $81.4 million subsidy from the state. But will the work that began Tuesday satisfy that requirement?
Colorado Economic Development Commission members approve $14.5 million in potential incentives for the positions, and their chairman says 250 more jobs are definitely coming.
But after the House backs the spending boost Wednesday, program supporters still must convince a majority of the Joint Budget Committee to support it.
This time, the number of well inspectors is at the heart of the debate as legislators ponder a $10.25 billion general-fund budget.
Legislative Audit Committee members choose to call overseers of the Regional Tourism Act before the committee in June to answer questions about subsidies they've approved.
The biggest recipient would be a financial-services company looking to create nearly 700 jobs in Denver or in Texas.
A bill that received approval from its first legislative committee Wednesday would offer tax credits of as much as $5,000 per worker per year.
The effort, approved Tuesday, will go beyond just the $81.4 million in Regional Tourism Act subsidies given to the Aurora Gaylord projects that several state officials wanted to investigate.
The TechHire program uses public-private partnerships to get more people trained in IT careers.
Sen. Lucia Guzman, the committee chairwoman, already had requested an investigation of the state spending on the project before Treasurer Walker Stapleton made a similar plea.
Walker Stapleton asks the Legislative Audit Committee to re-examine the state's role in the Aurora project following a court ruling last week that could affect that city's subsidies for it.
The city, looking to help to finance a 1,500-room hotel/conference center, responds to attacks on two different fronts.
Treasurer Walker Stapleton asks the head of Colorado's economic-development office whether the state funding is justified — but doesn't say what his next step might be.
The five-project proposal includes a whitewater park, high-end resort hotel, water park, sports complex and reconstruction of Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch.

Lagos to make History compulsory
The Lagos State Commissioner for Education, Mrs Olayinka Oladunjoye, has revealed plans by the government to make History a compulsory subject in secondary schools.
Speaking at the Sixth Annual Merit Awards of Education District at Government Senior College, Agege, Mrs Oladunjoye, said Governor Babatunde Fashola, has directed the education ministry to work on the history of Lagos State that would be a part of the curriculum, underscoring the importance of pupils learning of their past.
"We are working towards making History a core subject in schools," she said. "If you don't know where you are coming form, you won't know where you are going to. The governor has told me to go to LASU (Lagos State University) and UNILAG (University of Lagos) to work on the history of Lagos State."
During the event, teachers, administrative workers and other cadres of non-teaching staff and pupils who excelled in academics and competitions were appreciated for their performance last year.
Mrs Oladunjoye acknowledged her old teacher, Mrs Olabimpe Giwa, the immediate past Tutor-General/Permanent Secretary (TG/PS) of the district, who chaired the occasion, and urged teachers to be committed to their duties.
"Teachers should be proud to do their jobs," she said.
The recipients of awards included: Mr J.O. Olaniy (overall best principal, senior school category), Mr I.A. Olatunde of Vetland Junior Grammar School, Ifako-Ijaiye (overall best principal, junior school category), Mr M.I. Egunjobi of State Senior High School, Agege (overall best Vice-Principal, senior category), Mrs J.O. Fayinka of Tomia Comprehensive Junior Secondary School (overall best Vice-Principal, junior category) and Mrs S.K. Alarape of Igando Comprehensive Senior High School (overall best H.O.D. senior category).
Others were: Mrs O.O. Olajide of Sango Senior Secondary School, Agege (best teacher, senior category), Mrs A.F. Apanisile of Vetland Junior Grammar School (best teacher, junior category); Mrs O.A. Akinyemi of Inspectorate Headquarters, (best district staff) and Ms O. Balogun, Schools Administration Department, HQ (best non-teaching staff, district headquarters).
Chairman of the merit awards organising committee, Mrs Felicia Okonta, said the recipients were chosen after a rigorous process which included nominations from schools, visits and screening by the committee, followed by another stage of interviews.
In her speech, Mrs Victoria Peregrino, TG/PS of the district, described last year as a fruitful year given the number of awards garnered by the district. She urged recipients to put in more efforts to make this academic year better.
"I say congratulations to all our recipients while I still implore them not to relent on their oars. Your best in 2011 may not be meaningful in 2012.Remember there is always room for improvement. Please realise that a new race to higher heights has just begun," she said.

BUSHWALKS for 2015
Our walks are on Sundays, they are free and non-members are welcome. We meet at 9.30am outside 30 Templeton Street, Castlemaine (Continuing Ed.) and carpool to the start of the walk. Bring water, morning tea and lunch. Walks usually finish mid afternoon although the shorter March and October walks should finish by midday. Walks are cancelled on Total Fire Ban days in the area.
For more information ring Bronwyn Silver on 5475 1089 or Julie Hurley on 5472 5082.
21 June Goughs Range
Leader: Bernard Slattery 5470 5161
This small [161 ha] state forest is little visited, but has some nice attractions: grey box woodland with understorey of Golden Wattle, and some dense stands of Varnish Wattle. There are great views from the top of the range across to Cairn Curran and beyond. Note: this little forest is down for a management burn this autumn. If the burn is severe we may have to reschedule the walk elsewhere. Check the website for updates.
19 July Columbine Creek
Leader: Bernard Slattery 5470 5161
This walk was going to be led by Doug Ralph. We've decided to mooch through a few of Doug's favourite spots, including Sanger's hut and Ray Bradfield's flumes. Like Doug, we'll indulge in a bit of off track walking, so there'll be sections a little rough underfoot.
16 August Tarilta Gorge (& Upper Loddon State Forest)
Leader: Richard Piesse 0448 572 867
Our circuit walk commences at the junction of the Goldfields Track and Porcupine Ridge Road. Approximately 2 km down the Goldfields Track we descend to a wide green valley leading to Tarilta Creek. After many stream crossings north we turn into a glorious long and wide valley leading back to the Goldfields Track and the start point.
20 September Fryers Ridge
Leader: Alex Panelli 5423 2041
A walk in the on the eastern side of Fryers Ridge in the Wattle Track, Telecom track area through some perhaps fairly typical/unspectacular bushland. We will find out together what it will be like in September. For most of the way we will be on reasonably smooth tracks but we may also follow some trail bike trails for part of the way and may pass directly through bushland for some short sections.
18 October Morgans Track
Leader: Elaine Bayes 0431 959 085
Come for a pleasant walk off track with local ecologists to see a stunning display of spring wildflowers and learn a little about their ecology. Or just stop and smell the "better than roses!"

Choosing a large window treatments can sometimes be a challenge. Whether your window is very wide, very tall or both, this section features some ideas and tips for finding a window blind that's right for your large picture window. A vertical window treatment, such as a vertical blind or panel track sliding blind, usually works best on windows that are wider than they are tall, and add height and formality to a room. Horizontal blinds (for large window treatments) on the other hand, such as cellular shades and wood blinds, work best on windows that are taller than they are wide, and enhance a cozy and casual decor.
You'll want to find a large window treatment that can cover the size of your window while still providing the light control, privacy and functionality you're looking for. For example, cordless cellular shades are a safe choice for children and pets, but are difficult to operate on very tall windows (consider motorized shades instead). Also, wood blinds are very heavy and are not a good choice for large windows where the blind needs to be raised often.
For split windows, a 2-on-1 or 3-on-1 headrail option divides the blind or shade into 2 or 3 independently operating sections. Some fabrics are available on different kinds of shades to cover all your windows - try coordinating panel track blinds for your large windows with roman or roller shades on your smaller windows.

The 2nd TAF, equipped with rocket- and bomb-carrying Typhoons, Tempests, Spitfires, Mosquitos, Mustangs and medium bombers, flew ground attack and tank-busting missions in support of Montgomery's 21st Army Group as it advanced through Normandy and north-west Europe in 1944-45. The medium bomber units struck at enemy transport, ammunition dumps and communication targets. The 2nd TAF comprised British, Canadian, Polish, Czech, Norwegian, French, South African, Australian and New Zealand crews. The first volume in this three-book set deals with the formation and expansion of 2nd TAF from its inception in June 1943 for the next 12 months, and with the initial critical month of the invasion. This volume, as with the two subsequent volumes, is not only profusely illustrated with many little known photographs, and with Chris Thomas's masterly artwork, but also contains daily listings of all claims made against enemy aircraft, and all losses, damage and casualties suffered by 2nd Tactical aircraft and aircrews in carrying out their arduous duties.

Many youth movements will be showing more of their feminine side this year.
Habonim Dror, Noam Masorti Youth and BBYO are being led by women, while two other movements have scrapped the single director system in favour of leadership teams.
The new directors include two philosophy graduates, two former Cambridge students and an ex-university level netball player.
The Eastbourne Progressive Jewish Congregation (Beit Chaverim) is to be served by a part-time minister - Rabbi Anna Gerrard from the Liberal Judaism head office team.
Rabbi Gerrard will officiate at the erev Shabbat services on the fourth Friday of every month and will also offer pastoral support to congregants.
Betar Jerusalem, notorious for its right-wing football fans, has been bought by left-leaning US businessman Dan Adler, together with fellow investor Adam Levin.
The first female Scandinavian rabbi is part of a new ministerial team at Liberal Judaism's central London headquarters.
Sandra Kviat was one of four Progressive rabbis ordained on Sunday by Leo Baeck College at a service at the Liberal Jewish Synagogue, St John's Wood. She will mainly advise on the educational content of national and congregational ventures.
The first same-sex Jewish ceremony officially to be termed a marriage by Liberal Judaism has taken place in Manchester.
Last Sunday, Manchester Liberal Jewish Community members Jeffrey Levine and Roman Hunter-Fox exchanged vows, a ketubah and rings under a chuppah at the city's Lowry Hotel.
This year marks the centenary of the founding of the Liberal Jewish Synagogue. The LJS was established by - and owed its survival beyond a difficult birth to - a partnership between the gentleman scholar, Claude Goldsmid Montefiore, and the woman who wanted desperately to be his wife (but whose advances he rebuffed), Lily Montagu.
Britain's oldest Liberal synagogue celebrated its centenary with a musical Shabbat service featuring participants from every decade of its existence.
Around 900 worshippers gathered at the Liberal Jewish Synagogue, St John's Wood, on Saturday - almost 100 years to the day that its founders met for the first time in a converted chapel on February 4, 1911.
A group of women from the Liberal Jewish Community in Manchester are fighting for Jerusalem's Women of the Wall and are taking a stand for their own community's right to exist.
Manchester's newly inaugurated Liberal Jewish Community, the first such in the North West, is holding a Friday night service tonight which will protest against an Israeli ban on women being able to sing and read the Torah at Jerusalem's Western Wall.
The service will take place at Cross Street Chapel in central Manchester.
People with terminal illnesses should be helped to die if they do not want to go on living, according to the chief executive of Liberal Judaism.
Rabbi Danny Rich made the case when he gave evidence last week to the independent Commission on Assisted Dying, chaired by the former Lord Chancellor Lord Falconer.
Manchester's first Liberal rabbi has officially begun ministering to the only Liberal synagogue in the north of England.

Conexant Systems has unveiled the CX24116, a satellite set-top box (STB) demodulator and forward error correction (FEC) decoder based on the DVB-S2 standard.
The CX24116 advanced modulation front-end solution enables operators to offer additional content and services, such HDTV channels and interactive services, and basic local programming using existing bandwidth and infrastructure.
The STB offers a path for service providers to use advanced modulation with new low-density parity check (LDPC) and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) FEC.
It has an on-chip microcontroller for fast-signal acquisition, Es/No estimation and system monitoring. The fast-signal acquisition algorithm searches and acquires the carrier within a +/-10 MHz range during initial acquisition and performs a smart search to reacquire under fade conditions.

I'll admit it, I watch Sister Wives. �But the past two weeks I have gone to watch it on Sunday nights and it is not on! Did they cancel it right in the middle of the season?? �I was really looking forward to learning more about their move!
Was Sister Wives Canceled?
Comments (9)
Ive been wandering the same thing. They also arent showing an commercials about the show. I know there was a lawsuit going on about them so maybe that has something to do with it.
Chelsea, mommy to Ayana Ann born August 7, 2011.
Baby Reese, April 22,2015!!!!
I was wondering the same thing. I hope its not canceled!
I can't remember because I don't watch it but they were advertising the season ending last night when I was watching television. But because I didn't care enough, I wasn't paying attention to when they said it was going to air. So I don't think its cancelled although they may have a had a week or two of re-runs in there plus also the royal wedding week.

I can't help but think it's coincidence that Mitch from Map Bicycles posted this bike and called it a "Rambonneur" after my Rambo Rando reference last week. My mind is blown here. That bike looks like so much fun! See more at the Map Bicycles Flickr.
Eric from Winter Bicycles describes his latest build, the Peregrinator as a "full rando with Di2/ Hydro robot build." Yes, rando, not Rambo. Although the latter seems fitting with this build kit. Talk about going full-on commando assault steeze… The Peregrinator comes locked and loaded with Nitto components, A23 rims, Compass Tires, White Industries, Schmidt generator hub, internal wiring with Ultegra Di2, Winter racks, a Winter stem and a Ruthworks SF Luggage bag.
Shine, please, shine, Peregrinator. You're ready for anything. Check out more detail photos below…
Photos by Anthony Bareno
Eric from Winter Bicycles' newest bike to roll out from his shop is this gorgeous touring / randonee bike. The Quiscale is an all-rounder, meant for exploration, touring and is perfect for a daily rider. This frameset features thin lugs with accented window cuts and is built from traditional, classic diameter tubing. Accompanied by internally-routed lighting, fenders, custom racks – with removable low-riders – and specially-made RuthWorks bags.
The parts group is nothing short of choice with White Industries, Paul, Cane Creek and Shimano Ultegra, yet one of the cleanest details is the "French point" winter stem with bell mount.
The Quiscale's class is elevated by Keith Anderson's impeccable paint. See more at the Winter Flickr.
Yesterday I went down to the LA River Camp Coffee meet-up to drink some coffee and see what this weekly gathering is all about. While I was there, I shot Errin's Box Dog Pelican rando bike, set up with panniers.
This bike was made by Banjo Bicycles – they're made by Winter now – in production runs and are sold by Box Dog Bikes in small batches. Errin's has seen some mileage, which you can follow along on his blog Frontage Roads. I love randonneur bikes that become commuters when they're not being drug through the shit on a brevet.
See more details in the Gallery and many thanks to Errin for organizing the LA River Camp Coffee meetups, more on that tomorrow!
Mitch Pryer is the man behind Map Bicycles and let me tell you, that man can make some lovely racks. Map is known for their randonneurs, but as you can see, Mitch can tackle just about any client request, including a porteur rack with low-riders.
This is amazing. See more at the Map Flickr.
To Die on the Day of the Dead
Words by Alexei Popov and photos / preface by Cani Sciolti Valtellina
It's truly bizarre, but every time Mr. John Watson asks me to post some stuff on his website it is always something that has to do with failure.
Yes, FAILURE.
Failing is part of our everyday experience (I think I fail every single day, in one way or another) but it's a term that's not so well renowned in the cycling blogsphere (and beyond…)
Nevertheless we, as Cani Sciolti Valtellina, have a special attractive relationship with the unknown, which always drives us over and above the boundaries of the "well planned / all into account" philosophy to dive into the aleatory world…
This is an old one, but it's always good to see Ultra Romance, aka Benedict, aka Poppi's Pizza, aka Jøtul, doing his thing.
Yoinks! Do you even Rando, bro? JP Weigle has the scoop on this 1950's R. Ducheron restored randonneur bike at his Flickr. Ever want to own the winner from the best restored bike of the Cirque du Cyclisme in 2007? Well, holler at Peter via his Flickr.
Framebuilder Mitch Pryor teamed up with Brent and Katryn Steelman to join forces on a batch of half tig welded / half brazed randonneur framesets. Over the past few months, I've been watching the progress and finally, we're seeing some of the final frames rolling out of production.
It's interesting to me seeing the mix of tig and brazed construction. Something you don't see every day coming from production batches and I for one can say that these bikes are looking superb. See more from the S&P Randonneur Project below and follow along at the Map Flickr.
I love how this one photo got me stoked to see the new Map Bicycles S&P Randonneur Project bikes and it's only a shot of racks and forks. Follow along at the Map Flickr!

If you can't live, you dying, you give or buy in
Keep it real or keep it moving,
from Kanye West (Ft. Kid Cudi & Raekwon) – Gorgeous Lyrics on Genius
Each of these three lines present a similar idea:
"If you can't live, you dying" — If you aren't living extravagantly, your life is useless
"You give or buy in" — Either you gamble for success, or you give all your 'chips' to those who do.
"Keep it real or keep it moving" — If you aren't going to try to succeed, then get out of the way of those who will.
Let's not forget Rae's big thing with the drug game: "keep it moving" probably means move more product, which ties in with the beginning of the next line

1990 Chevrolet 3500 Pickup Q&A
1990 Chevrolet 3500 Pickup Question: Defrost only through floor vents
Why does the air in my truck just exit the floor vents when my defrost is on? - ddixoncrna
2 Answers
Answer 1
Most commonly this would be caused by a vacuum fault. Make sure the vacuum supply to the a/c control is good and all the hoses under the dash are connected correctly. - Jim Taddei
Answer 2
its possible somthing has dropped into the defrost vents and has lodged itself at the flap inside duct that controls the air direction. i had this problem with a ford pickup. i took apart the duct work and there was a pen keeping the flap for the air in open. took it out put it back together ....problem solved - terry houston

Why is it that the illuminati should be treated any different than any other creation of men?
Are you trying to convince us that unlike everything that has ever existed on the planet throughout history...the illuminati are above reproach?
If such a group that was beyond reproach and I was supremely evil...it is with that group that I would seek to hide out.
That's why the illuminati gets bashed...shiny things don't impress me.

They are challenging us to open up our true Enlightened and Alchemical power.
We have much more power than we realize, yes, But at the same time the biggest problem is ignorance, non reasoning and the fact that most people dont care, Life is just a supply and demand, Its a mirrored reflection of ourselves.

Picture: David Hasselhoff Comedy Central Roastof David Hasselhoff held at Sony Pictures Studios - Arrivals Culver City, USA - 01.08.10
David Hasselhoff was the victim of this year's Comedy Central roast that aired on Sunday night. The 58-year old Baywatch actor, who has recently been battling a drinking problem, as well as various family issues, was subjected to a barrage of jokes about his life and antics, including the now infamous 'cheeseburger' video, in which he appears in a drunken state, eating fast-food off his hotel room floor.
The opening gambit came from comedian Seth Macfarlane, the host of the roast, and star of hit US comedy Family Guy, who asked, "How do you make jokes about a joke? How do you embarrass a man who so thoroughly embarrasses himself?", and he went on with the grilling, exclaiming, "How do you put someone down when they are already lying shirtless on the floor?"
However, despite the joke being well and truly on 'The Hoff', he was happy to laugh at himself, after the show he told a Popeater.com reporter, "I've been waiting for a forum to talk about where I'm at. I didn't do it in the beginning because I was in a very personal matter and it involved the custody of my children." Hasselhoff failed to get his contract with NBC renewed in January, which meant he was replaced as a judge on America's Got Talent with comedian Howie Mandel.

The mega office suppler Staples has sold accessories for Apple products in the past, but never actual products. That could be changing as items appeared in the companys online store, as reported by 9 to 5 Mac. Items have since been removed, but for a period of time there were listings for Apple TV, in addition to Apple branded accessories such as Lightning adapter, EarPods, and iPad cases.
Most likely this is the webmonkeys building out the online catalog, although it may not be for U.S. consumption through some error. Well have to see if this indicates a new mega reseller for Apple gear. Staples hold corporate accounts for business of all sizes, and easier ordering could be a boon for Apple.

South Alabama defeats Alcorn St. 87-79
MOBILE, Ala. (AP)—Brandon Davis scored 21 points and grabbed 14 rebounds to lead South Alabama to an 87-79 win over Alcorn State on Friday night in the teams' first meeting in 10 years.
It was the season opener for both teams, as DeAndre Coleman added 14 points and LaShun Watson and Bryan Sherrer chipped in 13 points apiece for the Jaguars.
Troy Jackson led all scorers with 24 points for the Braves, followed by Jarvis Williams with 15 and Anthony Ford with 12.
The Jaguars committed 19 turnovers but made up for the mistakes by outrebounding the Braves 48-26 and shooting 50.8 percent from the field.
Alcorn State cut the lead to 81-76 with 5:05 remaining in the game after Gifford Blakely made two free throws. The Jaguars outscored the Braves 6-3 down the stretch to preserve the victory.

Relief for Infosys as US court dismisses visa case

Washington/New Delhi: A US court has dismissed whistle-blower harassment charges against Indian IT major Infosys filed by its employee Jack Palmer as no basis to support any of the allegations was found.
Reacting to the development, Infosys asserted that the company is built on core values and is led by integrity and transparency.
"Judgement is entered in favour of defendants Infosys Technologies Limited Incorporated and Infosys Limited and against plaintiff Jack 'Jay' Palmer, Jr, with plaintiff Palmer taking nothing by his complaint," US District Judge Myron H Thompson said in his two-page ruling on Monday.
"It is further ordered that costs are taxed against plaintiff Palmer, for which execution may issue," Judge Thompson said in his order dated August 20, thus bringing an end to a long drawn case against the Indian IT company.
Infosys CEO and MD S D Shibulal in a conference call said, "Today's decision confirms what we have been saying from the beginning, Mr Palmer's claim of retaliation were completely unfounded. This is a company built on core values that include leadership by example, integrity and transparency."
He added that the matter was officially closed.
"Those values always have and will continue to shape the way we do business with our clients and without exception the way we treat our people," Shibulal said.
Asked if the judgement could deter other employees to come forward as whistle-blowers, Shibulal said the company had a strong policy in place. "Whenever something is reported, we look into it," he added.
The court order boosted the market sentiment on the BSE. Infosys shares closed 2.37 percent higher. Buoyed by Infosys, benchmark index Sensex surged by 194 points.
Finding no basis to support any of the charges filed by Palmer, the judge ordered that all other pending motions are "denied as moot" and all pending objections are overruled as moot, according to the court documents.
In February 2011, Palmer had filed a lawsuit in an Alabama court accusing the company of visa fraud saying he was asked by the firm to sign on documents which said workers were heading to the US to have meetings rather than to work there, which he claimed was done to "creatively" overcome H1-B visa caps.
He had also alleged Indian workers in his team were paid substantially less than an American would have made on the same job.
After mediation efforts between Palmer and Infosys failed, the case went to trial on August 20.
Shibulal said the judge found no basis to support any of the charges that were filed by Palmer and had dismissed the case entirely.
"Palmer had materially falsified and altered several critical documents probably did not help his cause," he added.
"In the wording though, as part of what constitutes summary judgement, the judge is showing that even if hypothetically all the claims were to be true, it still isn't worth going to trial," Shibulal said.
In a statement issued through his attorney, Palmer said he is disappointed in the court's orders, but argued that the judge's order will have no effect on the ongoing criminal investigations against Infosys.
"While Palmer and I obviously are disappointed in the results, we certainly respect Judge Thompson's decision," said Kenneth J Mendelsohn, Palmer's attorney. "It is important for the public to understand that Judge Thompson did not condone Infosys' conduct. He merely concluded that "under current Alabama law, Palmer has no right to recover from Infosys," Mendelsohn argued.
On the second lawsuit filed against Infosys in a California court, Shibulal said the company has completed its internal investigation.
"I think we have done our investigation and have found that the claims are totally unfounded. Our lawyers are preparing for the defence," he said.
The lawsuit, filed on August 2, by Satya Dev Tripuraneni alleges that he faced harassment and had to quit his job after he reported visa fraud by managers at Infosys.
Tripuraneni said the company fraudulently billed for workers brought from India on short-term visitor visas and also evaded taxes.
Asked if Palmer would be a part of projects, Shibulal said, "The utilisation remains low and as and when we need people, they are moved from the bench to projects."

'Infosys victory may deter copycat lawsuits'
In April this year, Infosys in a filing to the US Securities and Exchange Commission said that the US department of Homeland Security (DHS) was reviewing the company's employer eligibility verifications after it found a "significant percentage of errors in Forms I-9 of some of its employees working in the country".
Asked about an update, Shibulal said, "We have made statements in the past. There are no further updates at this point in time as in when there is an update, we will let you know."
Form I-9 is used by an employer to verify an employee's identity and establish that the worker is eligible to accept employment in the US. Every employee has to complete an I-9 form at the time of being hired.
"In the event that the DHS ultimately concludes that our Forms I-9 contained errors, the department would likely impose fines and penalties on us," Infosys had said.
The Infosys victory may deter potential copycat lawsuits against Indian companies and the mere possibility of litigation should not scare away businesses from investing in the US, Birmingham-Alabama-based attorney with Haskell Slaughter Young & Rediker, Jagdesh Kirpalani, said.
Noting that some blogs and news outlets misapprehended the litigation as a whistleblower case, he said the plaintiff's case against Infosys was not a whistleblower, or qui tam, action.
"Simply put the plaintiff's case was an employment case alleging claims founded in contract and tort. The plaintiff failed to establish that Infosys breached a contract with him.
"The plaintiff did not present any conduct on the part of Infosys that rose to the level of an intentional infliction of emotional distress. Accordingly, the court threw out the plaintiff's claims as insufficient," he said.
The judge in his 23-page opinion said, "Infosys argues, and this court agrees, that Palmer is attempting to bootstrap a whistleblower retaliation claim into a negligence or wantonness tort.
"But there is no evidence that Alabama tort law recognises (arguably as an exception to the State's at-will status) an independent cause of action for negligently or wantonly failing to prevent whistleblower retaliation."
In fact as he donned the mantle of being a whistleblower accusing his employer Infosys of harassing him and indulging in visa fraud, the annual salary of Palmer increased from about Rs 80 lakh per annum to Rs 90 lakh, in addition to the annual bonuses.
Palmer's base salary increased from USD 145,000 in 2008 to USD 165,000 in 2012, the district judge wrote while dismissing the harassment case against Infosys.

Description of NY Bar Exam
From the BOLE website:
Schedule for First Day of the Examination (Tuesday):
In the morning session, which begins at 9:00 A.M. and ends at 12:15 P.M., applicants must complete three essays and the 50 multiple choice questions in three hours and 15 minutes. Although applicants are free to use their time as they choose, the Board estimates an allocation of 40 minutes per essay and 1.5 minutes per multiple choice question.
In the afternoon session, which begins at 2:00 P.M. and ends at 5:00 P.M., applicants must complete the remaining two essay questions and the MPT in three hours. Again, although applicants are free to use their time as they choose, the National Conference of Bar Examiners developed the MPT with the intention that it be used as a 90-minute test. Therefore, the Board recommends that applicants allocate 90 minutes to the MPT and 45 minutes to each essay.
Schedule for Second Day of the Examination – MBE (Wednesday):
The second day of the examination is the Multistate Bar Examination. The Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) is a six-hour, two-hundred question multiple-choice examination covering contracts, torts, constitutional law, criminal law, evidence, and real property. The examination is divided into two periods of three hours each, one in the morning [9:30am to 12:30pm] and one in the afternoon [2:00pm to 5:00pm], with 100 questions in each period.
