Pres. Obama was Against ExIm, Before He Was For It
(h/t Club for Growth for uncovering this video!)
Fast forward to today. President Obama is now urging Congress to reauthorize the ExIm Bank. The Orlando Business Journal reports that President Obama urged businesses to "join the fight over the U.S. Export-Import Bank."
(An interesting aside, the article links to the original story in the New York Times, but when clicking on the link, the NYT page cannot be found.)
While visiting the Boeing plant in Everett, Washington, President Obama gave a speech to union members and urged Congress to support the ExIm Bank. Ooops! That video hasn't been deleted yet. See below:
"So last November, when I was in Indonesia, Boeing announced a deal – with the help of the Export-Import Bank – to sell more than 200 planes to one of the fastest growing airlines in the world. Boeing is one of the largest exporters in the world. This is one of the biggest deals Boeing had ever done."
So we guess he is now praising that same corporate welfare he once derided.
Senator Obama, meet President Obama, a man who will say anything to get re-elected.

Re: BloodRayne 2 FSAA Patch 1.4
Using Patch 1.4. I notice when Blood Rage is on, I now see kind of a darkish circle around Rayne. I never noticed that before.
Is there a way to eliminate that?
I notice too that I'm still having some issues with the pre-rendered videos (even with the Use Old AA Method enabled). Not the videos so much but a few times when it's about to go to the save screen, I get a black screen. I can still hear the sounds of the game. If I alt/tab out and back in, I can then see the save screen.

Squeezing the recommended 7 (or more) servings of produce into your busy day might sound hard, but it's not. Here's how to hit your mark:
Breakfast and fruit go together like "good" and "morning." Add 1/2 cup of berries (or 1/4 cup of raisins, both 1 serving) and a sliced banana (another serving) to your cereal. Add some nuts for crunch, if you like (another serving). Brain and body will be ready to go, and you've already got 3 servings in — we call that winning the morning.
Take a salad break. Conveniently portable and infinitely customizable, salads are perfect for lunch to go. Toss together some greens (1 serving) with sweet tomatoes (another serving) and roasted squash (another serving) for 3 more servings of produce in a delicious midday meal. Good job!
Grab a fruit snack. Keep a bowl of whole fruit visible at home or on your desk, then grab an apple after yoga or an orange after your meeting for a nutritious pick-me-up. (And 1 more serving!)
Think roasted and tossed for dinner. Get amazing flavor and nutrition by adding a veggie side and a fresh salad to dinner. Roasting broccoli, for example, is an easy way to rediscover an old favorite. And you can't beat our pre-washed organic greens for tossing together a quick, delicious salad. Fill half your plate with veggies and salad to add 2-3 more servings to your daily total.
That's a day with 9-10 servings of produce right there. No problem, so delicious!
We're sharing delicious recipes, tips, handy guides and more, inspired by over 30 years of growing organic goodness. Sign up now for a fresh take on happier, healthier living right in your inbox.

Hollywood PalladiumRead MoreOn Halloween 1940, hundreds of couples clad in suits and cocktail gowns flooded into a brand-new concert hall. Bas-relief pillars and crushed-velvet curtains flanked a bandstand that today would seem comically small, its curves echoed in a series of sweeping, backlit circles rippling across the ceiling and ending in a wrap-around balcony where guests could look down on the sea of elegantly coiffed heads. But most importantly, there was lots and lots of room to dance. That?s remained true in the many decades since the Hollywood Palladium?s grand opening. Over the years, the venue has hosted everyone from Black Flag and The Ramones to The Offspring and Jay-Z, and though a flashy modern light and video system now fills the stage, it still looks out on a massive dance floor lit by anachronistic chandeliers. Of course, guests might well guess at this blend of modern spectacle and old-school panache just from the venue?s fa?ade, whose enormous neon letters tower above the marquee?s list of the big names on deck that week.6215 W Sunset Blvd.Los Angeles, CA US
The CinefamilyRead MoreHoused in the historic Silent Movie Theater, Cinefamily presents "interesting and unusual programs of exceptional, distinctive, weird and wonderful films." Many screenings come with live music, dancing, potlucks, and special guest speakers such as Nick Kroll and Nick Offerman.611 N Fairfax Ave.Los Angeles, CA US
IO West TheaterRead MoreSince it opened in Chicago in 1981, iO has been a beacon for the comedy world's luminaries and luminaries-to-be. Founders Del Close and Charna Halpern believed that improvisation could be more than simply games, and worked together to shape the often misunderstood comedic form into the free-flowing, longer-running artistic entity it is today. The resulting laughter proved too much to be contained by the Midwest alone, and in 1997, they raised the curtain on iO West. In the years since iO hosted its first show, more than 5,000 performers have walked through the doors of one—or both—training centers and theaters. A few of those individuals might be familiar: alumni include Mike Myers, Chris Farley, Adam McKay, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, David Koechner, Jack McBrayer, and countless others.6366 Hollywood BlvdLos Angeles, CA US
Greek TheatreRead MoreEncircled by the mature trees of Griffith Park, the Greek Theatre is a premier outdoor venue with a rich history in Los Angeles. Opened in 1931, the open-air theater cradles up to 5,900 spectators in a design originally inspired by an ancient Greek temple, which pleased the gods by stacking its amplifiers to face Mount Olympus.2700 N Vermont AveLos Angeles, CA US

Based on James Michener's Pulitzer Prize?winning book, Tales of the South Pacific, South Pacific tells, dances, and sings the story of two couples?Navy nurse Nellie Forbush with French plantation owner Emile de Becque, and airman Joe Cable with lovely native lass Liat? torn by war and the temptations of tropical paradise. The original production won the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1950, with its frank depiction of racial prejudice as a central theme.135 N Grand AveLos Angeles, CA US

In accordance with the reviewer from Seattle, this drink really does ease some of the pain caused by having to cut back on alcoholic beverages. It tastes so much like a cocktail, I almost didn't know the difference. There is so little alcohol in bitters that it really is basically non-alcoholic.

Threat Description
This malware copies itself to different folders of a local hard drive with different names.
Automatic action
Once detected, the F-Secure security product will automatically disinfect the suspect file by either deleting it or renaming it.
Detailed instructions for F-Secure security products are available in the documentation found in the Downloads section of our Home - Global site.
You may also refer to the Knowledge Base on the F-Secure Community site for further assistance.
Technical Details
When the malware's file is run, it first shows a fake error messagebox:
The text in the messagebox can also be:
File not found windll.dll missing Unknown format
Then the virus scans all local hard drives and copies itself with different names to different directories on it. The virus "borrows" names of files located in a folder where it copies itself to, but in order not to overwrite these files, the virus changes its file name a bit - it adds one extra character to the beginning of its file name. For example if a virus finds a file named NDD.EXE in a folder, it will copy itself as PNDD.EXE or SNDD.EXE and so on. On the screenshot the malware's files are in red squares:
If the virus finds a JPG, AVI or MP3 file, it creates a copy of itself by "borrowing" a name of that file and adding .EXE extension. For example for CLOCK.AVI the virus will create a file named CLICK.AVI.EXE. This malware creates only one file in each folder each time it is run.

General Motors, for one, will be watching closely to see how Chrysler's bankruptcy plays out. It may face the same fate in just a month, when its deadline from the government approaches.
But all automakers have an interest, because they share a supply chain. If the suppliers can't deliver parts, it could shut down production lines at Toyota, Honda and Ford.
Ford said Thursday it is closely monitoring the situation. "Our industry is highly interdependent, and the health of the supply base and dealer network is critical for all automakers," Ford said.
Lemos-Stein predicts there will be a lot of bumps in the road, including many auto-supplier bankruptcies in the coming months. Chrysler announced it is shutting down production today for 30 to 60 days, freezing the revenue stream for its suppliers. Many suppliers are already reeling from the news that GM is shutting down many of its assembly plants for up to nine weeks starting in May.
No one knows how long Chrysler's bankruptcy will take. Although the case was filed in the Southern District of New York, which has experience with speedy bankruptcy cases, judges are obliged to listen to each interested party that wants to be heard, which could drag out the process.
The automaker's bankruptcy filing listed assets of $39 billion. Its top 25 suppliers, attorneys and advertising firms are owed $575 million.
Already, people are asking for a voice in the bankruptcy. According to documents filed with the court, 14 auto suppliers say they are interested parties. Ford and Mercedes-Benz have filed asking to be notified of anything going on in the court. Al group calling itself the Committee of Consumer Victims of Chrysler LLC and the Ad Hoc Committee of Mesothelioma and Lung Cancer Claimants have filed. The list will likely keep growing.
There are other big questions, such as what happens to Chrysler's financial services arm? The government named GMAC as Chrysler's new financing company, and it's still unclear what that means for Chrysler Financial. That company is now at risk of bankruptcy, too, Lemos-Stein says.
There is also concern that the bankruptcy filing will scare away consumers, who might wrongly believe it means Chrysler is going out of business. Thursday, Obama pointed out that the government is backing Chrysler's warranties now.
"No one can blame car buyers who shied away from brands that were mentioned in the same breath as the word 'bankruptcy,' " said Philip Reed, consumer advice editor for Edmunds.com. "Now that their warranties are being guaranteed, Chrysler and GM vehicles are good deals which are worth considering."
"Last week, people were asking if there'd be a Chrysler. This week, the government's behind Chrysler," says Mike Boudreau, director of corporate reorganization firm O'Keefe & Associates.
History of troubles
The last American automaker to file for bankruptcy was Studebaker in 1933. After emerging from bankruptcy, it continued operating, albeit struggling at times, until the mid 1960s.
This isn't the first time Chrysler has found itself in trouble. In 1979, then-CEO Lee Iacocca persuaded the government to guarantee more than $1 billion in loans that the automaker wouldn't have otherwise been able to get. Chrysler returned to profitability in 1983 and repaid the loans early.

The move is expected to trigger a fresh competitive response from the major banks as they seek to maintain sales growth in the face of a sluggish mortgage market.
Until the end of next month, NAB's UBank arm will be offering standard variable rate mortgages at 6.59 per cent, although the discounted rate is only available to mortgages sold online.
Pricing at these levels represents more than a full percentage point below the current standard variable rate of most banks.
Rival Westpac has the highest mortgage rate in the market among the major players at 7.86 per cent, while Commonwealth Bank and ANZ are pricing variable home loans at 7.81 and 7.8 per cent respectively. NAB's flagship brand will continue to sell loans at 7.67 per cent.
NAB's strategy over the past 18 months of discounting mortgages has been starting to pay off. The lender is now notching up sales of more than three times the rate of growth of the broader mortgage market, with much of this growth coming from CBA and Westpac.
The latest move also underscores how banks are increasingly turning to their second brands to drive market share.
Westpac last week sought to undercut rivals in the fixed home loan market, using its RAMS offshoot to issue hefty discounts on two-year fixed loans. The discounted fixed rate comes amid expectations that official cash rates will increase later this year.
Meanwhile CBA has been using its BankWest brand for high-interest savings accounts.
In a sign non-bank players are starting to move back into the market, Aussie Home Loans earlier this month offered a variable rate of 6.69 per cent for home owners looking to refinance mortgages.
NAB launched its UBank business more than three years ago offering high-interest deposit accounts, although it has been trialling sales of mortgages since February.
NAB executive general manager of strategy Greg Sutherland said UBank has been able to price more aggressively than rivals given it runs as a stand-alone business, without the need for costly infrastructure such as a branch network.
UBank's pricing in deposits and mortgages ''more fully reflects the economic benefits of the online model'', Mr Sutherland said.
The latest moves follow months of aggressive advertising from the banks, with some lenders openly attacking each other to snare market share. But the moves on pricing are worrying some investors, who regard this as a negative-sum game, particularly if they lead to a watering down of mortgage standards.
NAB fired the first shot in February when it offered to pay the $700 mortgage exit fee of CBA and Westpac customers. This was followed by the break-up advertising campaign against the other majors.
CBA quickly hit back by offering up to $1200 cash to NAB customers looking to switch loans. At the same time, CBA also targeted NAB business banking customers, while Westpac offered a range of discounts across new mortgages.
Mr Sutherland said UBank had undertaken substantial investment in its online banking business, giving it a competitive head start.

Madhur Bhandarkar's last film "Heroine" didn't garner too much praise, but the filmmaker is happy with the kind of cinema he has made so far.
"I think the sharp journey, it's hard-hitting and real. I never left any people, from traffic signal to the film industry. I am very happy with the kind of cinema I have made, the kind of research which I have done," the 44-year-old said here Wednesday.
The National award-winner has touched upon lives of bar girls, fashion industry members, corporate people, and those who live by traffic signals through his various films.
Bhandarkar says his films make certain people apprehensive and admits they do get upset, but he is nonchalant.
His next will be announced soon.
"Right now I am taking a break and after sometime, definitely, will announce my movie very soon," Madhur said.

git amend
|Posted by Sonia Hamilton under Git
A nice git option I stumbled upon today – amend.
Typical scenario – you've done a local check-in, then notice there's a typo in your code comments. Fix up the typo, then use – – amend to re-check-in, without having to do a reset/revert. For example:
git add foo.file git ci -m "added the frob feature to the whiz-bang" ... notice and fix typo in foo.file ... git add foo.file git ci --amend
When you do the amend check-in, your editor will pop up, allowing you to re-edit the commit message if desired.
Obviously, if you've done a commit to a remote/public repository, amend has issues, similar to reset.
Also, I have entries like this in my .gitconfig, hence "git ci" rather than "git commit".
[alias] ci = commit co = checkout st = status br = branch
Share This
4 Responses to git amend
Could run this at the command-line to get those aliases, maybe a minuscule amount less effort since don't have to navigate to the right spot in the editor for pasting :-)
git config –global alias.co checkout
git config –global alias.ci commit
git config –global alias.st status
git config –global alias.br branch
oh, btw, that long dash, — , should appear/be typed as two dashes, but I think wordpress is trying to be too clever for its own good by converting it.

I'm not sure if Pandora would've combined Grace Potter and the Nocturnals with Cake, but after the first four songs, I can say I really like this band.
I can't remember the last time I got this excited about fair food. Seriously, people. Forecastle is doing this right. Take notes. Learn a lesson. Please, for the love of all things good, replicate it.
I wanted to pretend he was a smurf, but this Na'vi at Forecastle wanted to plug his hair into mine and teach me all about sustainable living.

Bush's Rating Falls to Its Lowest Point, New Survey Finds
Published: June 29, 2004
(Page 2 of 2)
"We attacked a sovereign nation, and we went in there and we did things that the United States shouldn't have done," Charles Drum, 36, a Republican from Alameda, Calif., said in an interview after the poll was taken. "I feel that we went after the wrong people, and it's unacceptable, and it's absolutely ridiculous that innocent people are dying over there in Iraq, and our own troops are dying for a cause that is not just."
Respondents said that Mr. Bush's policies in Iraq were having the effect of creating terrorists and of increasing the chances of another terrorist attack at home. Concerns about the war appear to undercut what has long been one of Mr. Bush's strong suits, his handling of the fight against terrorism. Fifty-two percent of Americans now say they approve of the way Mr. Bush is conducting that fight, down from 90 percent in December 2001.
"I watch the news quite a bit, and I'm kind of thinking it's getting these terrorists motivated to do more," said Charlie Buck, 54, a Republican from Indiana, Pa. "Whether it's their religious beliefs or it's us trying to step into their country, I just get that feeling that they feel that we're stepping into where we shouldn't be, and it's inciting them. It's stimulating them to be more aggressive in getting us out."
In what could prove to be a particularly far-reaching development for Mr. Bush — especially because he and his campaign have sought to undercut Mr. Kerry's credibility — nearly 60 percent said he was not being entirely truthful when talking about Iraq. Similarly, just 15 percent said the administration had told the entire truth when it came to abuses at the Abu Ghraib prison.
There are some ways in which Mr. Kerry and Mr. Bush are viewed similarly. They are seen as political leaders who keep their word, and both are viewed as optimistic, suggesting that Mr. Bush's attempt to portray Mr. Kerry as pessimistic has not taken hold.
But there are signs that Americans are beginning to form very different personal perceptions of these two men. Mr. Kerry was described as more likely than Mr. Bush to admit a mistake, and to listen to divergent opinions. Mr. Bush is viewed as someone who takes a position and sticks with it, and while those interviewed were split on whether that was a positive trait, it is a contrast that Mr. Bush's campaign has encouraged as a way of trying to undercut Mr. Kerry
"Kerry has flip-flopped too many times," said Joseph Martin, 52, an independent voter who lives outside Seattle. "The one thing that I think that a lot of people understand is a position of strength, and you cannot be waffling around. You've got to show a commitment, show a determination and keep a steady hand, and I just don't think Kerry has got that."
For Mr. Bush, the poll contains a number of potentially worrisome findings. By 51 to 32 percent, Americans believe that he has divided the nation, rather than brought it together. The number of Americans who said that Mr. Bush did not care about the "needs and problems of people like you" edged up to 42 percent from 36 percent in March. More than 50 percent said that Mr. Bush did not have the same priorities for the country as they did.
On the issue of the economy, even though job-creation numbers have been rising over the past few months, 45 percent of Americans say that the Bush administration has been responsible for a decline in jobs, compared with 24 percent who say it has brought an increase. Fifty-five percent of respondents said they were very or somewhat concerned that they or someone in their house would be out of work over the next year.
Republicans, remembering what happened when Mr. Bush's father lost in 1992, have long expressed concern that any improvement in the economy will happen too late to capture the notice of voters.
Both men are disliked by more people than they are liked. The number of people who view Mr. Kerry unfavorably has jumped to 35 percent from 29 percent in mid-March, when Mr. Bush began a huge television advertising campaign against his opponent.
In Mr. Kerry's case, 36 percent said they had no opinion of him, despite the campaign's record-setting expenditure on television advertisements. That figure is fairly typical for challengers at this point in the campaign; in June 1992, 44 percent of the public did not have an opinion of Bill Clinton.

Latin Black Bean Salad with Peaches
Latin Black Bean Salad with Peaches
Latin food can be local too! This recipe is for a very simple salad using black beans from Cayuga Pure Organics near Ithaca, New York. Thanks to them, we have access to a great vegetarian source of protein from a regional organic farm. The dish was inspired by a wonderful dish made for us by Autumn Stoscheck of Eve's Cidery , who used as many fresh vegetables she could tossed with cooked black beans. The result was a juicy salad of September bliss.
This is a simplified version with just a few ingredients. There are no exact quantities for this recipe, because it is up to you to judge the amounts you want to use. The idea is to have the same proportions of onions, tomato, and peaches, and just make the dish as colorful and diverse as possible. Who needs mango when we have ripe, juicy peaches?!
Cooked black beans (see below)
Red onion
Heirloom tomatoes(of any color and shape)
Small red or green Chile peppers
Herbs: mint, cilantro, parsley
Vinegar (and lime if not on a local diet)
Collard greens or kale (about 3 cups chopped)
Dice the red onions, tomatoes, and peaches to about a medium size, not much bigger than the beans. For 1 cup of cooked beans you will need about 1/2 a peach, 1 medium tomato, 1/4 of a red onion, and about 1" of the chile pepper.
Mince the chiles finely and toss them in along with the herbs for extra flavor. Dress with vinegar, season with salt, and toss thoroughly.
Steam the collard greens and kale, and place them on the bottom of two dishes. Spoon the bean salad on top of the greens and serve.
Buen Provecho!
Makes enough for 2 healthy portions.
How To Cook Dried Black Beans:
Take 1 cup dried beans, place in a bowl, and cover with about double their amount in water. Soak for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Drain the beans of their soaking liquid and transfer to a pot. Cover again with at least 2-4 inches of water and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer covered on very low heat until the beans are cooked through and soft (about 1 hour). You can add cumin, ginger, or garlic to the cooking liquid to add flavor. Ginger and cumin both help with the digestibility of the beans, reducing gas.
Wow, such a lovely salad ! Peaches are such a wonderful surprise! I hope to try this Sunday! I love all these recipes so much!
Made this and used mango's since that is what I had. LOVED it. After I removed the spiny middle part of the collards, I cut them into about inch size peices, boiled them for 15 minutes, and after squeezing all the water out I sauteed in a bit of olive oil, butter and garlic. The collards were the base for some fish I prepared in the oven, and topped it all with the black bean salad. so delicious and healthy!

Thus far, only one specimen of this size has been recovered. Dr. Dan Ksepka, NC State paleontologist and research associate at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, believes that this is because a turtle of this size would need a large territory in order to obtain enough food to survive. "It's like having one big snapping turtle living in the middle of a lake," says Ksepka, co-author of the paper describing the find. "That turtle survives because it has eaten all of the major competitors for resources. We found many bite-marked shells at this site that show crocodilians preyed on side-necked turtles. None would have bothered an adult Carbonemys, though in fact smaller crocs would have been easy prey for this behemoth."
The paleontologists' findings appear in the Journal of Systematic Palaeontology. Dr. Carlos Jaramillo from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama and Dr. Jonathan Bloch from the Florida Museum of Natural History contributed to the work. The research was funded by grants from the Smithsonian Institute and the National Science Foundation.

2012 was a year about a lot of things, like (terrible) end of world predictions, the discovery of the Higgs-Boson, and Mars rover landings. But it was mainly about video games, and not just video games, but good video games, because the worst kind of video game is a bad video game. And those aren't nice. Here are some that are.
Combine equal parts Call of Duty and Diablo and neglect to write a satisfying story and you'll get the first Borderlands. Universally praised for its fresh RPG take on the FPS genre (or was it an FPS take on the RPG genre?), its relatively terrible ending was the butt of a lot of jokes, mainly because it was butt. Because of its success, fans the world over took a collective deep breath when Borderlands 2 was announced and an exhale of relief when it was released because, surprise, surprise, it was actually good. Not content with taking their case of sequelitis sitting down, Gearbox decided to go for broke and improved on every aspect of the game anyone had ever complained about, expanding their famed procedural weapon generator, breathing life into the story of Pandora and its inhabitants, and injecting, intravenously, the offbeat and dark humor briefly glimpsed throughout the first game's campaign and its DLC. I don't remember the last time I have been this satisfied by a sequel. Probably never.
Minecraft – Best PC Hand-me-down
After taking the PC scene by storm, it was no wonder that Minecraft's devilishly simple formula would be copied ad infinitum on platforms without it, but as it turns out, the best Minecraft-clone on the Xbox Live Marketplace… is Minecraft itself. With the addition of some console-friendly modifications, such as crafting and split-screen LAN play as well as content updates to bring it up to speed with its PC predecessor, this port easily captures the block-placing, creeper-hunting magic of the original despite (currently) having a limited map size and the inability to import custom skins or maps. It turns out that the only thing better than ruining your friends elaborate brick mansion is doing it while sitting within punching distance of each other.
Slender – Best Reason to Change Your Pants
Best played in the dark and with the high-pitched screams of your friends as a soundtrack, Slender captured the hearts, minds, and adrenal glands of the gaming scene at large with its depiction of the now viral Slender Man, originating from the Something Awful message boards and popularized in part by the mockumentary YouTube horror series, Marble Hornets. There is little story behind Slender – as soon as you start the game, you are prompted to "Collect all 8 Pages" and are left to your own devices in a dark, ominous forest armed only with a dying flashlight and paranoia. This is where Slender truly shines: mist obscures and muddles vague shapes in the distance, and a heartbeat-like pounding grows in intensity as you collect more and more pages and encounter the titular Slender Man with increasing regularity. Slender sets an excellent standard for the burgeoning indie horror genre, proving to hardcore gamers, siblings, and significant others that there's more to them than pledge benefits and cat scares – there is absolute, no-nonsense terror.
Katawa Shoujo – Best Reason to Take Japanese 101
One of the more vilified genres in gaming is the infamous and misunderstood "visual novel," originating from none other than the world capital of Asian eccentricity, Japan. Visual novels are often presented as some form of fetish software, invoking images of tentacle on schoolgirl action or something equally outlandish, but the reality is that any sort of eroticism, while present, is but a minor component of the incredibly well-written stories that precede them. Four Leaf Studios, formed in part from the ranks of 4chan (the internet's premier hive of scum and villainy), began the project in 2009 after being inspired by a single Japanese artist's one-off sketch depicting his concept of disabled girls in a school setting. This sounds incredibly offensive – and it totally is at first glance – but what its detractors don't tell you about (because they haven't played it) is its lovingly crafted story of friendship and romance (both of which sometimes end in bedroom antics). Despite the controversial and less-than PC subject matter, Katawa Shoujo is, at its core, a super niche passion project by fans paying homage to an equally niche genre and for a ragtag bunch of misfits to release a full-fledged one by themselves speaks of dedication and great moral fiber, sex scenes notwithstanding.
World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria – Best Kung Fu Panda Simulator
The allegation that things get better with age only rings true for a few things: cheese, wine, and MMORPGs. Cheese and wine are tempered through bacterial and environmental processes (as well magic, presumably) while MMOs are forged in the fires of patches and expansion packs, and after almost eight years, (eight!) Blizzard has become a master of this 21st century smithing vocation. The previous expansion, Cataclysm, completely revamped the universally loathed 1-60 zones from its outdated "vanilla" quests to a more streamlined system, but failed to provide a similarly engaging 80-85 experience, bogged down by less than entertaining zones and compounded by a smaller level cap increase than previous expansions despite requiring an equal amount of experience to level. Pandaria continues the latter trend, bumping the level cap up by 5 levels to 90, but continues the streamlining process, simplifying the game's talent and ability system to be more accessible and less cluttered, as well adding a new race (the Pandaren) and a new continent, the titular Pandaria, which boasts some of the best quest writing I've seen in an MMO to date. Haters need not apply – this expansion retains much of what makes World of Warcraft such an unshakable vice for veteran players but still manages to be amazing fun for fans old and new. Also, who doesn't love pandas? Seriously.
With the end of the current generation and the beginning of the next in full view, 2013 has the potential to be one of the best years in video games to date, with a mix of high profile sequels as well as brand new IPs to dissect. I am not a time wizard or from the future so I don't know if they'll be any good, but here's hoping.

Lawmaker Seeks Data On Babies Born To Drug Addicts
State officials want to do more for babies born with health problems from drug-addicted mothers.
Statehouse correspondent Andy Chow spoke with one representative who says collecting the data must be the first plan of action.
In the battle against addiction, statistics can be a vital weapon to better understand what you're dealing with, that's according to Republican Representative Lynn Wachtmann. His newly proposed bill requires maternal facilities to report all babies born with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome, a condition with many symptoms in babies exposed to addictive drugs while in the womb.
Reporting these cases, Wachtmann says, will give the state a better idea of the severity of this ongoing problem. The representative admits it's out of character for him to advocate for more regulation, but says it's important to make this exception.
Wacthmann: "We believe the little bit of effort it will take on behalf of hospitals to report this—far outweighs the potential good that we can do by measuring—you know future years—how many of these babies we do have—how well we're doing fighting addictions and things related to mothers, pregnant mothers, and their babies."
Wachtmann believes this bill will see a large amount of support from both sides of the aisle, adding that the data could help the state with other issues such as improving the infant mortality rate.

For the frugally minded and sweltering, nothing is better than a "cheap" cold drink on a hot summer afternoon. Luckily, Starbucks has brought back its highly popular "Treat Receipt" promo. Through Sunday, August 17, when you make a purchase in the morning and bring the receipt back the same day after 2 p.m., get any Grande cold beverage for just $2 – a savings of about 60% on most beverages. Remember, you do not have to redeem your receipt at the same location at which you made your morning purchase — any participating location will honor the receipt.
For the budget-conscious, there's no minimum purchase requirement for the morning receipt, so consider buying a petite vanilla scone for 95 cents or banana for $1 to keep your costs down. If you're buying a morning round of coffee for the office (or, at least, buying more than one menu item), pay for each item separately. Then, you'll have more "treat receipts" to share with friends and family. Or, maybe, you can treat yourself to two bargain beverages — one in the early afternoon and one late at night.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

34 year old woman | San Francisco, CA, USA | Seeking men 30-35 within 10 miles
Pre-occupation with having the time of my life, everyday. Looking for someone to share the adventure with.
I am a Bay Area native and moved to San Francisco 2 years ago. I'd say I'm a pretty well-rounded girl who works hard, plays hard and laughs hard. I've been a Cardiac ICU nurse for the last 9 years and I love what I do. I have a very close knit group of family and friends, as well as a beautiful 11 year-old daughter who is my joy. My friends and family would tell you I'm a nut...fun, silly, caring, spontaneous and adventurous with a McGuyver-like skill set, Bourdain-like food taste, and Fey-like sarcasm (don't take it personally). I'm not a home body if I can help it, am always on the go, can't stand to be inside on a sunny day, and love to be in social settings. I love adventures involving wine and food, and work the calories off with yoga, volleyball and basketball league games. Although I am independent and very happy with where I am in life right now, I'd love to meet someone to be spontaneous, affectionate and best friends with. He would need to love kids, be kindhearted, active, self-sufficient, confident, gentlemanly, smart, witty, successful (by his own definition) and someone who takes a genuine interest in others. I am not compatible with someone who is judgmental, closed-minded or takes them self too seriously.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing cards , Shopping/Antiques , Wine tasting
Basketball, VolleyBall, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Dogs
Cats are yuck...and im allergic.
Middle of the Road
Baker Beach in the Fall, Dolores Park with wine, Yoshi's for the amazing jazz artists, Elbo Room for the local ones, NOPA, Farina, Lolo, HOPR (I can go on and on) for their food, UCSF for sports leagues, Ashley's Cafe, Arlequin and Jane Cafe for work
Chamberlain College of Nursing, St. Louis, MO
Good food, live music (jazz, latin, funk, etc.), tourist traps...the city has no shortage of any and i love them all. My TV/Movie preferences are pretty stereotypical girly stuff- SNL, E!, Bravo, Romantic Comedies. Jumping and Laughing.
I get the most fulfillment out of being spontaneous and being a tourist in my own city. I have fun playing sports, taking day trips to Napa Valley, dining out with the girls, spending every sunny SF day at the beach, park or hiking.

Heitai Easy Winner of Evangeline Turf Sprint
Favored Heitai ran his rivals off their feet with a comfortable front-running romp in the inaugural $300,000 Evangeline Downs Turf Sprint the night of June 21 at Evangeline Downs Racetrack Casino & Hotel (VIDEO).
"When they first announced this race (in February), I said 'He is going to win it,' and he did," said Broberg, who is second nationally in victories in this year's training standings behind Steve Asmussen. "If they don't get to him early, they don't catch him. My only instructions to Diego before the race was to go to the front."
"He was really running and pulling on my reins," said Saenz. "I just rode him like a winner."

text: The Henry Allen wiki last edited by Roekon on 07/13/14 03:48AM View full history History Henry Allen was a scientist from the mid 19th century. On July 4th 1864, while living in Hampshire, England and performing experiments for Charles Dodgson, he had an accident in his basement laboratory. That accident lead him to the discovery of the portal to Wonderland. He abandoned the rest of his experiments and turned his attentions turned to the portal from then on. Further experiments with it lead to the inadvertent creation of the White Rabbit and then Cheshire Cat. In attempting to conceal the portal from discovery, he placed a mirror before it and unintentionally created the mirror to Wonderland. Tired of the lack of results from Allen, his backer Mr.Dodgson, threatened to full his funding from Allen's research. Though suspicious of his employer's motives, Allen divulged his findings on the portal. This news pleased Dodgson, who encouraged the scientist to continue, and Allen was able to go on with his work. One day, while some family friends were over with their daughters Julia and Bethany, he dozed off in the parlor of his home. While away from his lab both the young girls and then his son William separately and accidentally traveled through the looking glass. This he realized too late. Distraught, he traveled through the looking glass himself. In Wonderland he came across the girls, new transformed into the Queen of Hearts (though he does not realize this). The Queen directed him into the castle, having mistaken him for one of the King's play things. In the throne room within Henry discovered his son, already transformed into the Suicide King. He watched as his son compulsively mutilated himself only to heal seconds later. The Jabberwocky then discovered Henry and commanded him to bring more beings to Wonderland, before casting him back out to his basement in England. Though madness began creeping over him, he remained clear headed enough to form a plan to destroy the portal and prevent any further harm that realm might do. In the intervening weeks the family of Julia and Bethany as well as Elizabeth, Henry's wife, grew distraught at the disappearance of their children. They accused Henry, as the only real suspect. On the night he plans detonate an explosion that will destroy the portal while he remains with his son on the other side, an angry mob appears at his door. They store his laboratory and murder him before he can carry out either aspect of his plan.

text: I second the Nikon L35af. Quality is miles ahead of the Canon AF35m (although it's still a good camera..). The Minolta HiMatic AF is another good one. Manual wind and rewind but autofocus and exposure. All 3 of those cameras have great sharp lenses and with the exception of the Nikon, are really cheap. I paid $40 or so for a really nice L35 and $15 for another that's a good user. All of the 5 HiMatics I have were $10 or less and the Canon was $10.

Emmys 2014: Hayden Panettiere is having a baby girl, shows baby bumpAdd to Favorites | The 66th Primetime Emmy Awards
Just days after using her ALS Ice Bucket Challenge video to confirm she was pregnant, "Nashville" star Hayden Panettiere walked the red carpet at the 66th annual Emmy Awards with her baby bump on full display in a shimmering gown. She also revealed to E!'s Emmy pre-show that it's a baby girl she's expecting.
It's the first child for Panettiere and fiance Wladimir Klitschko and will change the course of her "Nashville" character, Juliette Barnes. Producers are writing in a bundle of joy for the character, though there's no word on who the father is.
"Nashville" Season 3 premieres Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
