The Babble Do-It-Myself Guide
How to float, swing, tie your shoes, blow your nose, and be a kid.
by Allison Pennell
July 21, 2009
How to Set the Table
Helping around the house is a self-esteem builder, or so they say. To wit, we love the classic, award-winning "I Can Set a Table" laminated placemat.
How to Cook
For teaching kids everything from cracking an egg and kneading dough to slicing and grating, Bank Street College Librarian Lisa Von Drusek loves Pretend Soup and Other Real Recipes (Tricycle Press, ages 4-8) by Molly Katzen of Moosewood Cookbook fame.
How to Be a Good Loser
Cut through the usual touchy-feely stuff with a no-bunkum explanation sure to appeal to young competitors: self-interest. Teach them that in most games, there's always going to be a winner and a loser. And there's always going to be a next time, if you play it right. Nobody (not even their long-suffering parents) is going to want to play with a sore loser, or a sore winner, for that matter. So, tell them to take a deep breath and let it all go.
How to Take Gross Medicine
Having your child suck on a popsicle or ice cube before taking the big, bad gulp will numb the taste buds long enough to get the medicine down.
How to Ride a Bike
In bikes as in life, it's all about balance. And pedal-free bikes are just the ticket (albeit a kind of pricey one) for getting kids balanced and ready for a two-wheeler. Of course, you could just take the pedals off of an old Schwinn and call it a day.
How to Float
Any kid can float, no matter how little, says Swim America programmer Rose Cholewinksi. It's a matter of body position. Stand behind their heads cradling their head in your hands and have them look back at you. Head, bellies and toes are all on top of the water. Let them know you have them.

What Is A Takeover?
A takeover is an action by a corporation to assume control of a target firm. This is done by buying either all or most of the target's ownership stakes. Takeovers can either be friendly and favorable, or unwelcome and hostile in which case the owners of the target company tend to do anything they can to prevent the takeover.
Typically takeovers are undertaken in order to expand into a new sector or to grow within the sector (i.e. increase market share). For example, if a logging firm has one competitor in the surrounding area, they may simply buy the competitor and run a monopoly business.

WHEN Neanderthal bones were discovered in the 19th century, their robust build and heavy brows led palaeontologists to characterise them as brutish, and their name is still pejorative today.
Since then, we have found ample circumstantial evidence to suggest this stereotype is far from fair. Tools, jewellery and even cosmetics discovered among Neanderthal bones suggest that they were uncannily like us – a view strengthened when their genome was sequenced, showing a remarkable genetic overlap.
Now the Neanderthal epigenome – the system of on/off switches that modify gene activity – has been deciphered (see "First look into workings of the Neanderthal brain"), allowing us to directly assess the mental life of our extinct cousins for the first time.
This work is just beginning. Whether it clears the Neanderthal name remains to be seen.

In a phone interview yesterday with KIIS 1065's Kyle and Jackie O, Sonia Kruger speaks out about rumoured Celebrity Big Brother.

Day 80
Ryan Ginns has won Big Brother 2014, surviving longest in the house and beating the other 2014 finalists Travis Lunardi (runner-up) and Skye Wheatley (third place). With that, Ryan walks away with the $200,000, tax free.
Day 77
VOTING SCANDAL: Clued-in Channel 9 viewers have sent in reports to Behind Big Brother that a Vote to Win promo during Weekend Today and again during an Australia vs South Africa cricket telecast contained incorrect voting details for Travis.
Day 68
Big Brother 2014 will wrap up on Wednesday, November 26th from 8:30 pm as originally planned, but not before a secrets and betrayal special on Monday and a triple eviction on Tuesday.

PAWTUCKET — Megan Jaswell was a little disappointed she was unable to defend her women's title at Saturday's PawSox 5K, but that didn't wipe the winning smile off her face after completing the second annual race at McCoy Stadium.
"Every race is completely different, and you can never expect to do as well as you did in the last one," said Jaswell. "But this is a fun race, and it's nice to come out and support something good like this."

This is the "story" that the artist apparently told the journalist. Sorry, I like mountains and I don't see any abandonment nor desolation in this picture (indeed, it's not sunny), plus I don't see how the use of a pinhole could help to yield this impression ?To capture the "abandonment and desolation" she felt when faced with the "eerie perfection" of the Swiss Alps in 2007, Canadian photographer Nathalie Daoust turned to practically prehistoric photo techniques--a pinhole camera
Moreover, pinhole photography is not "prehistoric" ! not even "practically"

As President Bush visits Latin America this week to hammer out trade agreements and try to regain control in the hemisphere, he has at least one thing in common with his regional nemesis Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez: Both men have equally low approval ratings in Latin America.
There seems to be a misconception, especially in U.S. popular opinion, that all the anti-Bush rhetoric and rallies in the region means support for Venezuela's oil-rich leader. While Bush is far from loved in Latin America, Chavez is no better off in his own backyard.
Last fall's Latinobarometro, a survey published in the Economist that polled 20,000 respondents in 18 countries, found Bush and Chavez both rated negatively by many of those polled. An equal 39 percent of those polled disapproved of each of the leaders. Only Fidel Castro fared worse.
Certainly anti-U.S. sentiments in Latin America are nothing new. Today, the internationally unpopular war in Iraq plays a part, as does this administration's inattention to the region since Sept. 11.
Bush, the presidential candidate in 2000, spoke definitely about the need for a strong U.S. policy in Latin America. His actions not following his promises, his first foreign trip as president was to Mexico. But under his administration, the United States has been disengaged in its own hemisphere, forcing the region to carry on without the usual leader.
Chavez stepped in, but his aim of unifying Latin America has not worked. In many countries, his leadership has clashed with a strongly felt nationalism even within left-wing circles.
But unlike the United States, he has tried to engage Latin America. He has been savvy to use the most powerful tools at his disposal to influence the region: anti-American sentiment and his mighty petro-dollars.
Chavez is also charismatic and tapped into the feelings of millions of Latin American workers. Even if many of those same workers see him as disruptive, or the regional clown, they do find a grain of truth in his rants about U.S. trade deals and neo-liberalism, which have done little for their unemployment, poverty and social services. Crime and racism are other major concerns on the streets of Latin America. But Latin Americans are just as skeptical about Chavez as they are about Bush.
In his visit this week, as Bush faces a more skeptical Latin America, his message of social justice can only help relations if it becomes policy. It will further deteriorate U.S.-Latin American ties if the words are hollow.
Speaking from Washington before starting his trip, Bush said that the United States shares the same concerns as the "trabajadores" [workers] of Latin America.
It will take more than words and a U.S. presidential visit for miners in Bolivia, indigenous families in Ecuador and Peru, or farmers in Brazil to regain trust in the United States. They need engagement.
But it may be too late for Bush. Even the normally U.S.-friendly political elite in Latin America fear it is too late in his presidency to address the tough issues of trade preferences, tariffs and immigration.

This is no longer showing in Pusan. I went to the theater (after difficulty making sense of what I was finding information-wise on the internet) and they said it's in Seoul.
We saw Jump in Seoul and it was outstanding. You do not need to understand Korean to enjoy the show.
This show is jam packed with endless actions and humour to keep you totally engaged all the way through. The best part is that there's no need to know Korean as the performance is very cleverly designed so an international audience can enjoy it. I'd definitely pay to see it again.
Love the experience. Entertaining and defnitely worth the watch! It was great to see the story line and the martial arts definitely gave it an edge. Precise movement and awesome cast. I would definitely watch this again if I visited South Korea again :)
A most entertaining night. The actors are very skilled and also quite funny. We went as a group while visiting Dong-a university. They took us all and it was a great night. We laughed so hard and were very impressed by the display of martial arts.
The artist performing show their prowess in different martial arts and acrobatis while doing it in a funny way. The time flies by!!
I went and saw this with my wife and father. We couldn't stop laughing. A great show a must see if you are in Busan.
P.s I hope the show goes to Australia because I think it would be a hit!

good but some dried up
By Lydia
from Laval,Quebec
I have tried the Elizabeth Grant eye pad and those that are wet are fine and do give a beautiful glow to the eyes but I have had several in the package that were unusable since they were dry. Too bad because I have been on Mrs Grants products for years and always satisfied. I am 52 and people say I look no more than 40. Thanks to her.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Refreshed eyes
By TSC Shopper
from Montreal
I've used these and most other Elizabeth Grant eye pads in the past and the Vitamin C pads proved to be the best ones so far. First time I used them I had to look twice when I took them off, my under eyes looked so much brighter and almost line free. A great refreshment for the eyes that will last most of the day or a night out. The other kinds are okay too but definitely the Vitamin C ones gave the most dramatic results.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By Marie the Sydney Shopper
from Sydney, Nova Scotia
I like these eye pads. I still need more time to use them. So far I like them. I have dark circles under my eyes and I am hoping these pads will do the trick.

An example, one quest talks about bees and trees....a conversation given in agartha with the station master mentions bees...but unless you spoke to the station master and listened to what he says and actually remember it so that later down the line you remember it will seem like there are no clues...
The game is not for everyone and is certainly not for people who want carrot on a stick gameplay.

End is not an "end" just the begining.
The quests and the story is amazing, cuz no "wow style boredom" quests but i missing something. I miss the "build your own story" the way to chose a path. It's ok to do all quest, finish the game once but what next? Doing all the quests again with other char? No other way, no one will be do the game again. Only a few quests in the starting areas and i think the second, third, etc. areas are similar to the other factions.

Until the OP of that thread or another poster can come up with the actual source, shouldn't be that hard; so far that seems highly, highly unlikely.
Common sense puts more value in the game notes and statements of another FC guy who stated that the animations were placeholders than in the supposed quote of a so far imaginary other dev who said differently. I'll be interested to see if I'll be proven wrong.

Perhaps tomorrow will be better.
My take on the topics discussed...
The GOOD
I think it was quite a vague statement to just say ALL Funcom games are the best when comes to this topic.Using AOC as an example arguably their best looking game the cities are actually quite generic boxed out designs,nothing is well done in cities.However outside the cities the zones do look very good,i enjoyed my time outside the cities.
Skill Wheel
The argument here was one sided as it points directly at pvp.When stating the skill system works because it allows a vet or noob to play against each other ir over looking the pve aspect of team work and players working together.It doesn't always have to be about working against each other.I think the more accurate statement was when mentioning the skill system on a whole is really nothing different than a leveling system and i have found that to be almsot 100% true except in one game i played.
Here i do not mind the same old killing stuff but as this author pointed out,how they are presented can make a difference.I actually commented on this in another thread if devs are willing to put in some actual effort there is a LOT that can be done to even the most generic quests.
The BAD
This is the part that hits true to my heart as i feel combat is the most important part of a game,it is what keeps players coming back be it pve or pvp.The problem is that this topic alone needs a full page of some depth to give an argument either way.There was nothing but vagueness on this topic so the references wre meaningless.
This part has me baffled ,i guess the author does not understand animations o he/she could not give us the actual insight information we need.I just do not understand what was meant by the upper and lower body part.The way the author presented this topic it makes it sopund like the characters have two separate body parts and ALL the animations are tied ONLY top the upper body,it not only makes no sense but would be a dumb idea or i guess a lazy design idea.
Character Creation
This part has been overblown in every game,ONLY becuase of what MOST people want from this aspect of gaming.What most want is the looks hwen in reality character creation SHOULD go way beyond looks.Example race/stats/class/starting area differences perhaps even gender differences,i mean all it takes is effort and we SHOULD expect effort.The VISUAL aspect of creation is imo meaningless,EVERY single player ends up within the first day of playing covering up 90% of their player with gear/armor so why the fuss over visual?

I never came across a mission that couldn't with some thought give me an idea where to go. Yes, some of them took me a long time to deciper (see picture, above) and involved a lot of ARG-style research and thought but the clues are there - some much easier than others ("Your journey will start at the tip of the pyramid..." - hmmm, wonder if she means that place on the map called Pyramid Point).
The puzzles and the fact that often you need to as Maelwydd says, think about dialogue, think about where you are and what you've been asked to do, mean it's not going to be for everyone. Most likely not the instant-gratification purple-pixels-on-a-silver-spoon types. But it works for me.
edit: for context, the mission in the link above took me an hour and a half to solve with the only killing I did being a bunch of random mobs that were in my way on the route to one of the clues - and it was one of the most gratifying experiences I've had in an MMORPG in a long time once I'd finished.

Fundementally my largest problem with the game is that the combat is as dry and grindy as ever. Funcom did a good job of improving the RPG aspects of the industry but took a huge step backwards interms of the Action Adventure aspects of modern MMORPGS.
I also felt cheated that this game was hyped around doing away completely with the old level system but its just not true. Just because they dont stick a number above my head doesnt change the fact that i have to get a fixed amount of xp and then ding you level... I mean ding you got a new skill point.

I played the weekend beta and loved it. The story was awsome the setting was amazing the mobs detail was better then anything out there. A side comment to those that said anything in swtor was better then anything in TSW well that says all we need to know about you.
I liked the combat but yes I agree that something felt off buuuuuuut considering we're in the area that would be 1-10 zone you can not really expect to have the cool skills. I thonk some of the problem is the slight soupy feeling ya get but thats normal in betas with all the stuff funcom has going on in the background.
OMG the skill wheel is awsome yes theres limitations but far more freedom, even UO had limitations like you only had 700 points to use(when it was good). Even though your actives are restricted to your two weapons your passives are not you can take 7 passives from 7 dif trees and use them in a way thats effective for you 7 actives. I'd say thats a hell of alot of freedom just from the combos I was able to come up with in the area that would be a 1-10 zone in a lvl system mmo
I'd give TSW a 8 out of 10 as it is now in beta with some small adjustments it could be a 10 at release and I've played almost everything since UO till now even tried most f2ps and I've never given anything that high of a score except UO(up until AoS) and SWG(pre-nge)

The current animations are what you get for the most part , per the dev post.
Apparently they rather not have the general public know that before retail sales , wonder why.

There are some magic segments on the skill tree because there are mages or mystic protagonists in those stories as well..who also do not leap from rooftop to rooftop ..at least in any book I've read. We are playing humans with a magical edge , talent for combat or both....not superheros. When I can traverse the neighborhood in bounds I begin to feel like I'm playing CoH.
The one line that was spoken to my character at the beginning of game actually sold it to me ..to paraphrase.... I was told I " have been chosen but I'm not the Chosen One." Thought that was great in light of the fact that that's exactly how most MMOs try to make you feel...like a saviour of some kind or The Chosen One.
In this game's open beta my character felt like a "means to an end" instead of the "end all be all ".

The Best: World feels alive.....The areas we have seen so far are well done.....Lots of skills and variety
The Worst: The combat and animations......Too many cutscenes.....Too story driven with no choices for the player
My biggest problem with TSW is it feels like a single player game, like Im playing Dragon Age again without any choices...Sure there are other players, but most of hte time they are an annoyance as they get in the way of quest mobs and other things......Theres very little interaction with each other, if at all......The 3 factions all feel the same..Its the same character creator for all 3, the same clothing options, just nothing to make each one feel unique.....At least in fantasy games we can tell the difference between an orc and a Human.

I agree with each of your points, pros and cons. Unfortunately for me the lackluster combat and animations overshadow the pros enough to where I don't plan on purchasing TSW.

This game may not be for everyone as it has depth. That is something the WoW generation may reject. The combat is lackluster and animations are awkward, especially jumping, but it's still one of the best games in a long time. It may need some fine tuning but Tera's stupid mouse clicking combat is a terrible example. They need to keep the "thinking man's MMO" label, and kiddie console influenced combat would kill that.

In the past i had been critical of this website doing fluff reviews i participated in this last weekends beta and frankly the combat sucks and with GW2 right around the corner they better fix it or they are screwed........i don't see a flop as bad as AOC but if they don't delay this game and fix the issues mentioned in this article they are in trouble......thank you for doing an honest review and pointing out the elephants in the room that need fixing.

The only "bad" I would add to the List is this: we didn't had a decent in game gist about the PVP other than a map. I really hope this changes on the next upcoming beta weekend.
Said that, TSW really made me remember the feeling i had some decades ago, when playing adventure games mainly from Sierra or the infamous and hugely fun Maniac Mansion and Zak Mckracken from Lucas Arts:
And the feeling was "i am not eating until i solve just this one more, damnit!" or similar. That felt good :P
Really hope PVP will be added to the mix on this beta ;)

For me, the biggest drawback of TSW are it's creators, few years of playing AoC taught me to stay clear of Funcom games. No matter how fantastic the product is, Funcom somehow manages to turn it into disaster, by completely ignoring players.

I played this weekend's beta only, so I don't know if there has been any changes during the week.
I didn't mind the character creation too much. There were limited options, but I was able to make one whose appearance I liked. There was a limit to clothing, and I didn't receive any clothes as quest rewards, but AFAIK that will be in-game and that is ok.
The few issues I had was combat. The first four hours I played in Kingsmouth I felt invincible. Wielding my Hammer, no zombie was close to touching me, and there seemed to be no need to team up, so everyone seemed to run around solo. Eventually, I came across some mobs that proved to be tough, which leaves me hope that other parts of the world will provide challenges where we have to group up. I never came close to the final mission, but from what I have seen grouping is neccesary there.
I have seen the crafting video, so I had an idea how it works, but it seems like I will need to have a crafting guide close by. The system is not self-explanatory nor simple.
I thought some of the first cut-scenes were a bit long, but after a few hours I realized that it ties together. I have heard Funcom say this often, but suddenly it dawned upon me that I have to pay attention to everything.
One thing about the combat that got to me was the firehouse zombies and their arched attack. I was able to slug them a couple of times and slip out of the arch before they swung their axes. Letting the zombies attack while they build up their special attack, and maybe make the outline of their arc less visible might make them a bit more troublesome.
I haven't quite understood why they had to slice animations in two in order to allow movement in combat. Why not just make two animations, one for when the character moves and another for when he stands still. I can see this being a bit tricky if a characters decides to begin moving in the middle of a spell, and the animation has to change, but I still think this might be doable. The jumping was also surprisingly effective, but not a deal breaker. The comment about parkour-moves for jumps was awesome. :)

simonle added a post in a topic IP.Blog version 4?
I haven't thought about it that much, just an overall feeling I got about the blog-addon. But here's a couple of things:
The way the sidebars work now is bad imo. It would be better to let the user manage the sidebar and the different content blocks from a settings page. Like Google's Blogger does it. I want the ability to add default content blocks that the user cannot delete or hide. I want to be able to add a teaser paragraph to a blog entry. Let users add a couple of custom pages to their blogs which will show up in a custom menu (that you can organize on the settings page along with the content blocks). There are custom themes, but I don't want to give the user the option to change a whole skin, just let them customize the blog's header. Different post formats, just like Wordpress does it.
simonle added a topic in Pre-Sales QuestionsIP.Blog version 4?The blog add-on is quite popular in my community. But it's unfortunately messy to work with (both as a user and admin), so I was just wondering if there will be major changes and/or updates to IP.Blog in version 4?

Dream Big, pig
Poppy is a waddling, toddling pig with big dreams. She wants to be a star But she soon discovers that's not as easy as it sounds. It's only when Poppy feels the magic of gliding and sliding, swirling and twirling on ice that our most persistent pig truly believes in herself: Poppy, star of the rink
Kristi Yamaguchi is an ice-skating Olympic gold medalist and world champion who knows how to make dreams come true. Through her picture book debut, Kristi inspires children of all ages to dream big
Kristi Yamaguchi is an Olympic figure skating champion and winner of Dancing With the Stars. Her motto Always Dream contributed to her success on and off the ice and is one that she aspires to instill in the hearts of children. Kristi currently lives in the San Francisco Bay area with her husband and their two young daughters.
Tim Bowers has always had a love for animals. In fact, he enjoyed spending time at his grandparents' home visiting their furry friends, which at one time, included a pet pig named Porky Tim has illustrated more than twenty-five children's books and received numerous awards for his delightfully sweet and silly illustrations. He often visits schools to promote literacy and to share his experience and love for illustrating children's books. Tim Bowers lives in Ohio with his wife. Visit him at www.timbowers.com
"Olympic champion figure skater Yamaguchi centers her chipper debut children's book on a 'pot-bellied, waddling, toddling pig' who aspires to be a star. Repeatedly encouraged by her mother, grandparents, and best friend, Poppy follows one outsize dream after another, unsuccessfully trying out for roles as a ballerina, singer, and supermodel. ' 'Follow your dreams!' said Poppy's mother, who loved her no matter what. 'You go, girl!' said Poppy's grandparents, who were her biggest fans.... 'Dancing is just not for you,' said the people in charge of the ballet.' Bowers's (First Dog) pastel-hued cartoons spotlight the piglet's vivid imagination: before each audition, Poppy's glammed-up visions appear in thought balloons over her head. Though her spirits sag after her third failure, her loved ones' support keeps her inspired. Yamaguchi's message is more about determination than preternatural talent; when Poppy turns to ice skating, her persistence pays off — and a twirling, glowing Poppy draws admiring crowds — but even then she's not 'perfect.' Comedic flourishes, both in the artwork and in the repetition of the praise/criticism Poppy receives, keep the story from feeling overly inspirational. Ages 4 — 8. (Mar.) To market, to market comes a new collection of nursery rhymes — jazzed up by a rebus format. A large trim size gives Hillenbrand (Don't Slam the Door!) ample room to create cheerful scenes in which familiar characters cavort. But his playful tweaks in visually depicting both verse and action make this outing special. Each uncluttered, mixed-media spread features a rhyme (mostly well-known classics, including Jack and Jill, Miss Muffet, and Humpy Dumpty), which appears in large font with pictures in place of some of the words. The same rebus pictures appear — and are labeled — in the main art on the page, so readers can make connections between words and images. Gently humorous touches abound: King Cole is a jolly-looking lion, and his fiddlers three are none other than the three blind mice; Wee Willie Winkie is wee indeed — he's a mouse. This volume works as a nifty guessing game for early readers (some of the rebus pictures will be more obvious than others), and the beloved rhymes and detail-rich artwork should earn the project an enthusiastic audience. Ages 5 — 8. (Mar.)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright PWyxz LLC)

Last night at Lincoln Center the city's fashion elite gathered for the event insiders count as the real indicator of caché: The CFDA 2012 Awards.
Overcast skies withheld rain as Carine Roitfeld, Anna Wintour, Michael Kors, Diane von Furstenburg and a bevy of models paraded into a cocktail party before the main event. Among the more unexpected guests: snowboarder Shaun White, Top Chef judge Padma Lakshmi, Lauren Hutton in white suit and sneakers with an Olsen twin on each arm.
Seth Meyers hosted the evening–he somehow struck the delicate balance between roasting fashion elites (Karl Lagerfeld, John Galliano) without doing any real damage. Director John Waters–in orange shoes and pencil-thin mustache–accepted awards for the absent Johnny Depp and Rei Kawakubo.
Here is the full list of winners:
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen for The Row won the evening's Womenswear Designer of the Year.
Billy Reid won the award for Menswear Designer of the Year.
Reed Krakoff won the Accessory Designer of the Year Award.
The Swarovski Award for Womenswear, which honors and recognizes emerging talent, was given to Joseph Altuzarra.
Phillip Lim won the Swarovski Award for Menswear.
Tabitha Simmons won the Swarovski Award for Accessory Design.
Tommy Hilfiger won the Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award. Anna Wintour presented it to him for his "consistent, creative influence on fashion."

text: The The Mister Miracle to Be wiki last edited by Billy Batson on 04/04/13 02:19AM View full history Mister Miracle, Big Barda, Lashina, Mad Harriet, Stompa, and Bernadeth arrive on Earth, via Boom Tube. Immediately they find themselves under attack, from automated gun turrets, rising up from the ground. The initial barrage separates Mister Miracle from the Female Furies. Mister Miracle maneuvers under one of the turrets, just managing to disable it before it can fire on him. A trio of armed men, emerging from a trapdoor in the ground, try to capture Mister Miracle. After subduing his attackers, Mister Miracle leaps through the trapdoor, finding himself inside a small elevator. The elevator descends deep into the Earth. As the doors slide open, Mister Miracle finds himself face-to-face with "The Head". Mister Miracle has stumbled into the underground "Tinker's Shop" of the World Protective League. The Head takes Mister Miracle on a tour of the facility, showing him the organization's latest terror weapon, an Orbital Plague Bomb, currently being outfitted with a payload of deadly viruses. Mister Miracle quickly realizes that the protection the League offers the world is from them. At that, the Head psionically blasts Mister Miracle unconscious.The Female Furies awaken in a holding cell. Using her Power-Spikes, Mad Harriet cuts a hole in the wall, which Stompa then kicks out, flattening the guard. Intent on escape, the Female Furies are held up by Mike McCracken, a prisoner in an adjacent cell. McCracken's sexist attitude enrages Big Barda, who tears the door off his cage, intent on beating him. Suddenly, the group of would-be escapees are swarmed by armed guards. A short, but brutal, battles ensues. Still unconscious, Mister Miracle is loaded into, then sealed, inside a cylinder, that is then flooded with poison gas. Upon opening the cylinder, however, a very much alive Mister Miracle springs out, quickly taking the Head hostage. Once again, the Head renders Mister Miracle unconscious with a psychic barrage. The Head instructs his minions to carry Mister Miracle to the Orbital Plague Bomb. En route, they are ambushed by Lashina. The Head locks onto Mister Miracle's body with powerful magnetic waves, dragging him hastily down the corridor. The Head guides Mister Miracle into the Orbital Plague Bomb, then launches it. To his horror, the Head finds himself drawn, magnetically, to the outer hull of the Orbital Plague Bomb. The Female Furies arrive too late to stop the bomb's launch.Mister Miracle appears, greeting them from the mission control room. Mister Miracle had cut himself out of the rocket, leaving the hole to widen in the vacuum of space, when it reached orbit. The Orbital Plague Bomb explodes in space, destroying it's payload of viruses, as well as the Head. Mister Miracle and the Female Furies head for the research division of the "Tinker's Shop", to retrieve Big Barda's Mega Rod. An overzealous scientist attempts to flee with the Mega Rod, but Big Barda cuts off his escape route, then forcibly takes her weapon back from the man. McCraken sets explosives to destroy the "Tinker's Shop". Big Barda uses her Mega Rod to open a Boom Tube, allowing everyone to escape, before the research facility is destroyed. Meanwhile, Oberon, lonely and worried, waits for Mister Miracle to return home. Hearing the door bell ring, Oberon excitedly races to greet Mister Miracle, only to find Ted Brown waiting at the door. Moments later, MIster MIracle, along with the Female Furies and McCracken, do arrive. Oberon introduces Brown to everyone, then proposes a foray into show business.

I have used the tourtech holder and the MD holder. The tourtech did work but you could tell that if you had a problem...you would have a hard time fixing it. I do have a nearly new tourtech unit I got for my 950 a while back. It has the metal gears...but there are a ton of gears in there and it doesn't look like it would take much to cause a problem.
I found the MD to be very easy to use and the only problem I had was due to me winding my paper roll too tight...this causes the rubber bands to slip.
I did some road book prototyping a few years ago but never finished. My idea was to have two driven rolls and one paper guide making things as compact as possible. Had an idea for using a single chain and 2 1 way roller clutches. Never built it but could do so someday

Was it really worth it?
C'mon. Was it really worth all that money, all that time, all that trouble?
Was it really worth it to relive all those years of ugliness, shred all those reputations, embarrass the sport of baseball all over again?
The answers to that string of questions can be summed up with one pithy little word: no.
I thought 20 months ago that the Mitchell report was a lousy idea. And here I am, having read 359 scintillating pages of it (so far), just as convinced of that as ever.
But now that it's out there for your downloading delight, right here on this very site, Bud Selig's sport won't be the same. Can't be the same. Shouldn't be the same.
How has the Mitchell report changed baseball's landscape? Here are five ways it will undoubtedly leave its mark:
There are 86 players named in the Mitchell report -- but only one living legend. And if you guessed we don't mean Josias Manzanillo, way to go.
Roger Clemens has won 354 games and seven Cy Young Awards in his 24-year career. Yes, who among us will ever look at Roger Clemens quite the same after the Mitchell report?
Who among us will ever be able to forget what it felt like to read eyeball-rattling phrases like, "McNamee injected Clemens in the buttocks four to six times with testosterone," in this report?
Not this particular observer. That's for darned sure.
Is there any doubt the Mitchell report will wreak havoc on Clemens' legacy, reputation and Hall of Fame vote totals?
Is there any doubt that 99 percent of all Americans already regard George Mitchell's conclusions about the Rocket as immutable fact, without even examining them closely?
None. Right?
So you probably don't even care that Clemens' lawyer was using words like "slander" to characterize all this. You probably don't even care that the evidence is more tenuous than you'd think.
You probably don't even care that two attorneys who were surveyed Thursday, both of whom now work in the sports world, say they're extremely dubious that the allegations against Clemens would hold up in court. Not even in a civil case.
You might find that surprising, considering that Clemens is one of the few players in this report whose alleged use of illegal substances was actually witnessed by a living, breathing human being (trainer Brian McNamee) who then spoke with the Mitchell crew.
But one attorney -- a man who doesn't represent players, by the way -- said the entire case is "all based on one guy [McNamee], and there's no documentation."
True, there are checks written by McNamee to the human smoking gun, Kirk Radomski. But the report tells us, right there on Page 174, that Radomski admitted that McNamee never told him that Clemens (or Andy Pettitte) used steroids or HGH. It was merely implied, Radomski said.
Those implications were good enough for George Mitchell -- obviously. But the other attorney we surveyed said that in an actual court, a judge would tell a jury that the testimony of a witness like McNamee, who had made a deal with the government, was "not sufficient for conviction. There must be independent corroboration."
So what's the corroboration? Information supplied by another witness who made a deal with the government. Uh-oh.

33 year old woman | Norwood, MA, USA | Seeking men 30-40 within 50 miles
If you don't try, you won't succeed.
I've moved around a lot since graduating college, and in the past, haven't been seriously looking for a relationship. Now I'm reaching a point where I'm ready to settle down and have a family. I've got an ironic sense of humor, and I like hanging out with people who can see what's funny in the world. I've always figured it's either laugh or scream. Usually I laugh. I would love to find someone who can laugh with me. Barring that, someone who doesn't say "Huh?" when I make a joke is an absolute must. I love seeing beautiful places and things. I love to hike, and have recently gotten into trail running. I love the peace when you are away from the crowds, just listening to the birds. Visiting new cities is cool, but I've always found the natural world much more beautiful than anything manmade. My favorite trips have all been about visiting national parks and similar places. I studied ecology in school, and get seriously excited reading about new, different ecosystems, and seeing them in person is even better. Yes, I am a nerd, and happy to be one. The main things I'm looking for in a guy is intelligence, a sense of humor, and someone who shares some of my interests. I want to meet someone who is considerate, honest, and tries to behave as a gentleman. Nerdy is a plus, but not essential :-)

I love going out to wooded areas and hiking- local conservation land, Audobon society land, where ever. I just wish we had more and larger areas. I also love going out to restaurants with really good food.
I love going to small concerts. Mostly folk, since that's the scene I know the best, but any really good musician will do. I also like watching sit-coms, usually re-runs. Favorites: Big Bang, How I Met Your Mother, 2 and a half men (reruns only)..
The best days are the ones that start with a walk outdoors.
I read a lot, mostly science fiction fantasy novels, or science or history for nonfiction. Recent reads- Rereading Lord of the Rings.

One might think that as an IT security professional I would wish to tactfully discourage the use of Cloud computing; however, that is not entirely the case. Cloud computing opens avenues for collaboration on a scale never before realized by those wishing to integrate in thought and data sharing.

As technology connects individuals, potentially on a global scale, our abilities to develop peer relations and interactions are greatly enhanced.Learn more about protecting:
Protection for PGP/Bitlocker whole disk EncryptionPosted byon February 18, 2013 at 12:01 PM EST
Whole-disk encryption (WDE) provides an added layer of security for the data on your computer. Tools exist which can circumvent this technology under certain conditions. Lately, you may have heard about a tool from Elcomsoft which combines many popular WDE cracking methods in one.
Some attacks you are probably aware of. If an attacker can guess the encryption password through brute force, he can decrypt the disk without any tools. That's why a good passphrase is a critical part of the encryption process.Learn more about protecting:

We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
This Scrap Fabric Coaster Set from Lelanie Denso is a great way to use up any leftover fabric scraps that you may have lying around. These fabric coasters make great gifts and, since they're fabric, can be easily washed. This is a great gift for a new neighbor!
- 2 fabric pcs. 4.25" x 4.25"
- Iron-on interfacing 4" x 4"
Get one of your fabric, with the interfacing on or the felt under it (on the wrong side).
I decided to sew randomly following the prints.
On the other fabric piece, I have sewn squares and an X on its center.
Get both fabrics together, right sides together inside, wrong sides outside.
Sew straight stitches all along the sides 1/4" away from the edge, leaving 2"-2.5" unsewn.
Clip the edges.
Turn the fabric inside out.
That's our unsewn part of the fabric.
Sew straight stitches to close the unsewn part of the fabric.
Don't forget to backtrack.
Now, you have your own fabric coaster from scraps!

Great training tool!
The Garmin Edge 500 is a fantastic training device. I have mounts for my mountain, road and cross bikes for ease of transferring between bikes. I've also been known to throw it in my pocket for trail runs. The first one I received from Garmin wouldn't locate satellites for some reason and Garmin quickly sent a replacement. I've used it for over a year without any problems. I love having the ability to plug into GarminConnect and see all my ride info on the computer. And all-in-all a great training tool!
