Of course you weren't watching the end of last night's Kings-Coyotes game because it was a blowout and most of you live east of the Mississippi. What you missed was Coyotes fan greeting Dustin Penner in the penalty box with a Triple H 'Suck it' that was pretty good stuff for those of us paid to sit through this garbage.
The Coyotes might be getting swept, but at least they're winning the superfan battle.

Bryce Harper was supposed to be a big deal when he was drafted by the Washington Nationals out of junior college. There have been plenty of athletes that were thought to be the next big thing when they were coming through the ranks in high school and/or college (or junior college). So in that respect Harper is nothing special-- except he is actually backing it up. Last season he had a solid rookie campaign, and so far this season he is doing a tremendous job of building on it. As of the end of action Saturday he is batting .371 with seven home runs--two of which he added against the Mets--and 14 RBIs. Yeah. I think it is safe to say this kid is the real deal.

37 year old man | Las Vegas, NV, USA | Seeking women 25-45 within 10 miles
Here to save you from single's hell!!! :)
I am a unique genuine engaging canadian guy currently living in Las Vegas whose taking charge of his life in every way imaginable (health, financial, happiness-wise etc) and having a great time doing it. I'm currently starting a new business venture with big ambitions and training daily/ eating right to become the incredible hulk, LOL (ok, just to be extremely healthy without becoming obsessed). I truly am a Carpe Diem kind of guy! Although I enjoyed being in technical sales (I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering) for the last several years, I took the plunge to take on new a bigger challenges, recently. I'm truly passionate about my projects and I'd be happy to share them with you over a glass of wine. Don't worry, I'm a great listener so I won't do all the talking, lol. With the right girl, I'm a true romantic at heart and know how to make her feel special. I'm told I'm a good kisser and Oh, and I WILL make you laugh with my quirky sense of humour! I enjoy meeting open-minded people who enjoy traveling and trying new things. Anyone who is easy-going, sociable, and loves to laugh will get along great with me. I was married a long time ago, so I don't feel like the "divorced" status really fits the bill, i.e.: no heavy baggage, haha. I speak perfect french oui-oui! I have an awesome family and group of friends. I surround myself with positive people who have lust for life. If there's chemistry and you play your cards right, I might even cook you a nice dinner on a subsequent date! ;) Cheers and good luck to everyone! PS: most people think I'm much younger than I am partially because of good genes, my fitness level and my appetite to live life to the fullest. That's why I entered 35, when I'm really 41. Just wanted to be honest about that without being filtered out from potential awesome connections.

Exclusive: Samuel L Jackson teases Frozone return for The Incredibles 2
Samuel L Jackson has revealed that he expects to return for The Incredibles 2.
Pixar recently announced that a follow-up to the 2004 animated comedy is in the works. Speaking to Digital Spy, Jackson said that his character Frozone is likely to appear.
"Every time I run into Brad [Bird, director] he always tells me Frozone is part of what's going on, so I have to believe that," he said.
"I guess they could be the Incredibles without Frozone, but I think Frozone would be a wonderful addition to what's already there."
He added: "I'm just looking forward to seeing what Jack-Jack turned into."
Frozone - real name Lucius Best - is an old friend of the Parr family, and was best man at Bob and Helen's wedding. He has the power to freeze water and moisture in the air.
Samuel L Jackson reprises his role of Nick Fury in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which was released in the UK today (March 26) and hits screens in the US on April 4. Watch Digital Spy's video review below:

Quick heads up!

Quick heads up!
Smashbox Beauty Sale is on.
Good Morning!
Happy Monday and most important Happy Valentine's Day! You don't really need a holiday to spread the love around but I do hope you all have a special someone to share it with be it your best friend, your sister, brother, boyfriend, girlfriend, wife or husband.
Speaking of romantic I was thinking that the Smashbox Red Carpet Radiance Palette was pretty, soft, and full of romantic shades.
Check it!Read More...
If the Smashbox In Bloom Eyeshadow Palette proves as good as the few pieces I've tried from their Spring 2011 Collection, I'll be a happy camper indeed.
I know some of you purchased it, what's the good word?
I haven't tried it yet but I did try out the Smashbox In Bloom Creamy Cheek Duo, In Bloom Limitless Long Wear Lip Gloss, and In Bloom Artificial Light Powder.
Check 'em!Read More...
I absolutely adore the promo model's image for the Smashbox In Bloom Spring 2011 Collection. It's so fresh and clean, very natural for Spring with a minimalist finish but just the right amount of makeup to flatter.
But I couldn't help but wonder how they got such a great eye look from the Smashbox In Bloom Eye Palette which contains some really smoky shades. This is one reason you probably should never depend on stock imagery to make your makeup choices as I'm guessing the palette looks way better in the flesh than it does in the promo shot.
Anyone with me?Read More...
This giveaway is now closed and a winner will be alerted via e-mail. Thank you for your entry!
I fell in love with Smashbox O-Gloss Gold this year. So gorgeous. Do you hear me Smashbox? Bring it back for Spring 2011! We need it our makeup loving lives!
Experience the joy of O-Gloss Gold and some other goodies with the Smashbox The Gold List Gift Set! I have one to giveaway today!

YIELD: Makes 6 to 8 servings
Preparing the strawberries:
About an hour before serving the dessert, rinse the strawberries (stems on) and drain them on paper towels. Slice off the stems and halve or quarter the strawberries lengthwise, depending on size, into a bowl. Sprinkle over the sugar and the lemon juice; fold gently together to blend well. Taste a strawberry, add more sugar or lemon juice if needed, and set aside to macerate.
Whipping the sabayon:
If you want to serve the sabayon warm, make it at the last minute. If you want to glaze the sabayon under the broiler, or make it ahead of time to serve chilled, have ready a large bowl (larger than the one in which you whip the sauce) partly filled with ice cubes.
Whisk to blend the yolks, Marsala, and sugar in the stainless-steel bowl. Rest the bowl in the saucepan over hot water. Whisk constantly for 4 to 5 minutes or more to cook the sauce, until it has the consistency of lightly whipped cream. Clear the bottom of the bowl constantly with the whisk so that the eggs do not scramble, and adjust the heat as needed. Taste the sauce the sabayon should never get so hot that you can't stick your very clean finger in it and whisk drops of lemon juice or more sugar if you want. When thick, foamy, and tripled in volume, remove from heat. It can be served hot as is, tepid, or cool.
Spoon a portion of strawberries 1/2 cup or more into each goblet or glass, and top with 1/3 to 1/2 cup of warm or cool sabayon. Or put the sauce in the glass first, then the strawberries.
Variation: Strawberries Glazed with Sabayon
Cool the sabayon to room temperature. Whip the cream and sugar until soft peaks form, and fold the cream into the sabayon with a rubber spatula.
Turn on the broiler. Spread the strawberries in the baking dish in one layer (or in individual dishes). Spoon the sauce over the berries so they are completely covered and set the dish under the broiler, 5 to 6 inches from the heat. With the door open so you can watch carefully broil for a minute or two, turning the dish as needed to glaze evenly, until the top of the sabayon is nicely browned and slightly crusted. Serve right away.

To change things individually you would have to manually edit their points. I recomend you don't do this though it'll just give you a mess later because everyone will see something the want more later in raids and decide they want a refund. Then how do you choose who to give the item to, or do you just DE it. Best policy, No Refunds on DKP (or GP in this case).

LINCOLN, Nebraska — The U.S. Supreme Court decision to allow same-sex marriage could be good news for businesses that serve couples, from wedding planners to divorce attorneys.
Businesses that help plan and stage weddings said they expect a boost from gay and lesbian couples who can now marry legally Nebraska, instead of traveling elsewhere.
Shelly Richardson, the owner of Event Design in Lincoln, said couples in the past would often wed in states like Iowa, which legalized same-sex marriage in 2009, and host a separate reception in Nebraska. Now, Richardson said she expects more gay and lesbian couples will hold their formal ceremonies in Nebraska as well.
"We do expect an increase in business," she said. "It's definitely a good thing for wedding businesses."
The Cornhusker Marriott Hotel in Lincoln has fielded a handful of calls from couples interested in using the venue for wedding receptions, said general manager Susan Madsen.
"We've only booked a couple at this time, but we hope to see an uptick," Madsen said. "We're marketing that we're open to hosting these special events."
Nebraska's two largest counties have seen a trickle of marriage applicants since the June 26 ruling. The Douglas County Clerk's office in Omaha had issued 21 as of Thursday afternoon, while the Lancaster County Clerk in Lincoln had issued 27.
A 2014 study by the UCLA School of Law's Williams Institute found that extending marriage rights to Nebraska same-sex couples could generate $8 million in economic activity over three years, mostly from direct wedding spending and wedding-related tourism. The institute is a think tank that focuses on sexual orientation and gender identity research.
The report predicted that 1,178 same-sex couples in Nebraska would marry within three years of legalization, citing trends in other states.
The ruling could also translate to more business for attorneys who help with estate planning, prenuptial agreements and divorces. Now that same-sex marriages are recognized, some couples will likely seek legal help to protect themselves in case one partner gets sick or dies. Many adoptions and child custody cases will also require a lawyer.
"There are a lot of potential impacts for the legal profession," said Bell Island, a Scottsbluff family law attorney.
Kathleen Schmidt, an Omaha family law attorney, said the ruling makes clear that judges in Nebraska can grant divorces. Lawyers in the past disagreed over whether Nebraska could allow same-sex divorces, she said, because granting one would effectively recognize the marriage.
Schmidt said she lost a longtime client about a year ago because the woman wanted a divorce from her same-sex partner. Schmidt said she couldn't do it, based on her reading of Nebraska law.
"She was quite upset with me," Schmidt said. "My position was that we can't dissolve something we don't recognize."

Cantor's fall
An unforgiveable transgression was to mention the need for immigration reform.
Copyright 2014: Houston Chronicle | June 13, 2014 | Updated: June 14, 2014 3:45pm
Photo By J. Scott Applewhite/STFIn this June 11, 2014, photo, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., speaks at the Capitol in Washington. Cantorâs startling primary loss throws into stark relief the reason Republicans find themselves paralyzed by immigration. The policy most party leaders agree is best for the GOPâs future is risky for the vast majority of House Republicans seeking re-election in the fall. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite)
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor's shocking loss last week to a relatively unknown, underfunded primary challenger not only dealt a near-fatal blow to the congressman's lofty political ambitions. His defeat also extinguished any hope for comprehensive immigration reform, for now and probably for the foreseeable future. With Cantor vanquished, only the White House has the power to make something happen, but, unfortunately, that power is extremely circumscribed.
Talk about shocking. After seeing what happened to the seven-term Virginia congressman, House Republicans would rather brush up against an electrified border fence - there is no such thing, yet - than come within a country mile of immigration reform legislation of any kind.
Cantor's unforgiveable transgression was to maybe mention the need for immigration reform, maybe even muse about the possibility, some day, of taking a vote on a House version of a Senate bill that passed last year. In a low-turnout, tea party-driven primary, Cantor's casual, probably meaningless, dalliance was enough to earn him a bus ticket out of D.C. and back to ol' Virginny.
In April, Obama said he would delay whatever changes he can make to the nation's deportation policy in hopes that the House would take up comprehensive immigration reform before the August legislative recess. In light of what looks like permanent intransigence in the House, Obama is likely to act, first by extending his do-not-deport policy to a wider range of people than only immigrants brought illegally to the United States as children.
He might also do more to slow the record number of deportations that have occurred during his presidency.
In addition, the flood of hundreds of unaccompanied children crossing into this country daily, overwhelming holding centers in Texas and Arizona, also could speed up White House action. Obama has called the border situation involving children "an urgent humanitarian situation requiring a unified and coordinated federal response" and has established a group that will work across federal agencies to help address the problem. None of those actions comes close to comprehensive immigration reform.
Last year, the Senate approved a comprehensive package that included a path to citizenship for an estimated 8 million of the more than 11 million workers in the country without legal permission. Although roughly a third of Republicans supported the measure, a House cadre of the hard right has managed to keep the measure bottled up.
We hate to be pessimistic. Maybe more mainstream Republicans in the House, with an eye on their party's repeated expressions of disdain for Hispanic voters, will allow a vote on immigration reform. Maybe, and yet the Astros in the World Series this fall is probably a better bet.
What has happened with immigration reform is a doleful reminder that American governance at times can move at a frustratingly glacial pace. Racist Southern Democrats managed to thwart meaningful civil rights legislation for nearly a century. Moss-backed males from both parties blocked women's suffrage for nearly that long. On thoughtful, practical and much-needed immigration reform, it may be awhile before the ice begins to slide again.

Paz hopes to create better memories in tournament
Venezuelan native playing for singles title
<IF YOU GO>What: Women's Hospital Classic tennis tournament
Where: Wesselman Tennis Center in Evansville
What: Singles championship—No. 4 Gabriela Paz vs. Chichi Scholl, 11 a.m.
Strawberries and cream will be served before this morning's match from 10 to 11, and admission is free.</IF YOU GO>
Gabriela Paz would like to say she's returning to the Women's Hospital Classic in Evansville to relive fond memories, but the truth is that's just not the case.
"I played it like three years ago or something, but I didn't even remember it seems like so long ago," she said. "When I (got) here I remembered, 'Oh, I've been here,' but I had no idea."
A lot has happened in between visits as the Venezuelan native made a name for herself by winning three International Tennis Federation tournaments between 2007 and 2009. But leg surgery required her to sit out an entire year, and now just three months after returning to competitive play she's in today's 11 a.m. singles final against Chichi Scholl at Wesselman Tennis Center, having also reached the doubles final.
While Paz and partner Anastasia Kharchenko fell 6-3, 6-4 to Brynn Boren and Sabrina Santamaria on Saturday afternoon, bouncing back from adversity is nothing new for Paz.
"I had surgery because I had a stress fracture in my (right) leg," she said. "I started playing again in April, so it was for a year I was out."
Only 15 when she played in Evansville the first time (incidentally, she retired from an unrelated injury that time), she's now still only 18 and said she's again comfortable on the court: "I feel great. I have no pain and I feel like I've been doing a lot of fitness and am in shape again, so it feels great playing."
Saturday's results weren't great for her, though, as Boren and Santamaria controlled much of a competitive match for the doubles final. Then again, doubles is different for Paz.
"Actually it's funny because I never play doubles and now I got to the final," she said. "Before, I used to play higher tournaments and so I didn't have a ranking (at the smaller tournaments), so I couldn't. But now that I'm starting kind of over because I had an injury, I have the chance to play doubles."
"Plus I was here," joked Kharchenko, her Ukranian partner.
But kidding aside, and despite the loss, it turned out to be an important tuneup for Paz. She hasn't played a singles match since Monday because her quarterfinal opponent, Amanda McDowell, and semifinal opponent, Madison Keys, both had to pull out because of injuries.
"It's so funny because I've never had this happen before in my life and so to have two in a row, I don't know if it's good or bad," she said. "I mean, I was ready to play but at least I've been playing doubles."
Paz, who is the No. 4 seed, will face the American Scholl, who beat Channelle Van Nguyen 6-2, 5-7, 6-1 in her semifinal Saturday. Regardless of the outcome, Paz already is eyeing some bigger tournaments later this year.
Ranked as high as 230th in the world before she got hurt, Paz has what's called a "protection ranking" of 290th, which enables her to enter up to eight tournaments as if that was her current ranking because she dropped out because of injury.
"I'll use it later in the year whenever I feel like I'm ready," she said. "I might try to play the U.S. Open qualifier if I can get in."
She was the runner-up at the 2008 girls' championship at the U.S. Open and was ranked as high as No. 10 in the country as a junior.
"The plan is to get back to around where I was, and next year, if I do good enough this year, I plan to play the qualifiers for the slams and some higher tournaments," she said. "And, you know, from there "
Well, first things first, beginning with today's final, during which she hopes to make a memory of Evansville that will stick.
"It's great to be in both the doubles and singles finals obviously, so I'm happy and excited," Paz said. "It would be great to win. That's the plan, so hopefully it will come out like that."

County officials vote to proceed with condemnation action on property needed to construct the Harrison County Justice Center. The Levi building on the southeast corner was purchased for $150,000; property on the northeast corner was purchased for $32,000; and the Cooper property for $135,000.
Faced with a 28 percent increase in health insurance costs, Harrison County magistrates voted to switch carriers.

The U.S. government reports that Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) positions are expected to grow over 19 percent in the next five years. The growing need for EMTs is a result of an aging population and attrition from the field as certification and training requirements increase.

Harrison County High's grapplers began the 2009-2010 season with an impressive 57-18 beating of the Madison Central Indians in Richmond Wednesday night. HCHS won 11 of the 14 bouts, four by forfeit. Madison Central is in only the second year of wrestling and Coach Russ Riegel feels that they will be a formidable opponent in coming years.
I was surprised to see the number of people at Red's Fest last Friday night. It was held at the Duke Energy Center in Cincinnati, which is a huge facility. There must have been 5,000 people there, most in Red's garb and probably, all but me, big Red's fans.
I will say that the Reds staff in charge of our interview area were really nice people and very helpful. Interviewing is not what I do best, but they did what they could to make us feel at home.
Commissioner Billy Grayson urged commissioners to consider looking for ways to improve the City Hall gym facility at Tuesday evening's city commission meeting.

Allen Fryman likes animals.
And, Fryman has an abundance of animals.
As the county's animal control officer since June, Fryman has been working to accommodate the 1,399 animals that have entered the Flora Shropshire Animal Shelter this year.
The shelter's intake number is up from 1,124 animals last year.
"We stay full most of the time," Fryman said.
On average, at least four animals enter the shelter each day.

An app that would track shopping habits would be nice, where you can enter, what you bought, where you bought it and how much it was, and then compare it to other places, perhaps a cloud part so that other people could compare their shopping as well and find the best prices.

what about taking a crappy app thats on the store, something that has great potential and doing your own version of it and making it 100x better in the process.
what type of direction would you go? video apps, news apps, information based or visually based apps? give us some ideas what area you like and what your good at and i can come up with some ideas for you

Video/games don't really interest me. I am thinking something like information/productivity. I can tell you that one app on the app store that just blows my mind is pulse. It is stunning.

A: Most were very happy with our offering and did not have specific suggestions. Listed below are the suggestions we did receive along with notes from our team.
- Jewelry - We do offer a fair amount of jewelry in our gift shop. However, because of the one of a kind nature of these pieces we are not able to offer them all on our website. They are continually changing and up to the engraver and artist's whims. In addition to the photos we post on Facebook of these items, we are happy to email pictures of what we have along a particular line for you. We do have a section dedicated to jewelry on our website which you can view here.
- Belts, hat bands, saddles, and other custom leather pieces - While we greatly appreciate the art of leather craft we do not do it in our shop. We carry one of a kind pieces from a local maker, by the name of Wayne Hape, in our gift shop. These items follow the same treatment as our jewelry.
- Reins, headstalls, and other tack items - Though we do not make tack items in our shop we do try to carry a wide selection. You can view these items here. Along these lines it was noted that a particular style or material was requested. We are somewhat limited by our suppliers but will be looking into many of these options in the next year.
- Short shank bits (to transition from a snaffle) - We offer many short shanks as buy it now options on our website as well as the ability to build your bit exactly as you want it (catalog).
- Tablespoon shaped high port mouthpiece, western snaffle, half breed, and spade mouthpieces - We offer many mouthpieces that fit these descriptions. You can view all of our mouthpieces here. If you have questions about any of the mouthpieces please contact us and we will respond within one business day (usually much sooner!).
- Larger/wider mouthed trial bits - With the large number of mouthpieces we offer it would have to be narrowed down to a single selection case by case option. It would not be possible to accommodate all possible, non standard, mouth widths in our trial bit program. It might be a case of roughly mocking up the bit for you to try and then putting the finishes on it for you once you knew it was something you wanted.
- More design overlay options / would like to design my own and have you make it - With our almost unlimited combinations (shanks, mouthpieces, finishes, and custom overlays) we try and make that possible for you. Please visit our catalog for per piece options. With regard to you drawing up something completely unique (i.e. palm tree shanks and guitar shaped mouthpiece bars) and then having us build that for you, it is simply not possible. Because of our high quality standards we spend almost a year refining and testing every shank and mouthpiece before releasing it to the general public. We would be happy to overlay palm trees and guitars on your bit or spur though! Along these same lines we do not copy other makers. We have had several request to copy a favored bit for someone, but we just do not feel right taking someone's hard work and marketing it under our name.
- Non stainless heart design rowels - We will have these available very soon! Please feel free to place an order at your convenience.
- High quality hackamore bit - At this time Tom is not researching a hackamore bit. If anything on this front changes we would be happy to contact you. Please email us with your contact information and we will touch base with you if he does come out with one down the road. Another great maker that does currently build hackamore bits is Gordy Alderson.
- Flank buckles, bridle buckles, other tack hardware - This is something that we have looked into but would not be able to devote the time needed to produce these on an order by order basis. Our shop manager, Justin Massar, does a fair amount of side work with small custom items for people. He would be a wonderful resource if you have a specific request to be filled. We highly endorse his work ethic and craftsmanship!
- Bit hangers - We currently offer metal bit hangers and are looking into wood hangers for both bits and spurs. To order the metal hangers please contact us as they are not for sale on our website. We will be posting the wood displays as soon as they are available.
- Key chain - We offer many styles of key chains. You can view them here.
- Lower priced options - We offer our baseline as a economy line. You can view them here.
- Traditional Californian mouth and cheek pieces (i.e. c-port mouth) - Tom's style is not overly ornate and traditional so this is not a direction we will be going. We have been thinking of a straight shank but it would a year or more before this comes about.
- More overlay option (floral patterns etc) - We can cut anything out that you would like on your bits or spurs. Your only limits are the size of the space you have to work with.
- Smaller/larger mouthpieces besides the standard 5 1/8"- We offer custom mouth widths for a small up charge. You pick the width and we will built it for you. For more information on this please visit our blog "a bits perfect fit".
- Ladies spurs - We offer our spurs in mens, ladies, and youth sizes. When you tell us your boot size we then further customize the bend to fit you perfectly. For more information on sizing please visit our blog post "a spurs perfect fit".
- Barrel racing, Cowhorse, etc bits - Our bits fall into many disciplines. It is up to you to determine your needs within your specific discipline set. We do try and give you direction through our "is this bit legal" blog post. Other great resources are your disciplines rule books, as they are updated every year.
- Stirrups - We do not carry stirrups and do not have plans at this time to introduce them as this is something typically purchased with a saddle or saddle maker.
- More stainless steel options - All of our bit and spur pieces are offered in stainless. Our mouthpieces however are sweet iron and copper which aids in salivation and acceptance.
- Lightweight bits - We are researching different aluminum bit options for our shop. It may be a couple years before something is released to the general public.
- Trophy bits, spurs, or buckles - We offer all three! You can see examples here.
- Full sized shank bottle opener - We are toying around with this and should have something out by mid to end of this year.
- Knives - We sell a few knives in the gift shop by other makers. We do not have plans to make knives in our shop.
- English bits - We offer several styles of English bits including full cheek snaffles, D-ring snaffles, and Pelhams. We also offer a variety of polo specific bits.
- Stones on the bits - To inlay stone stones on our bits we have to design overlay plates. We have done this for the Sheridan shank which you can view here. If this continues to grow in popularity we will look into other shank overlays that allow for stones.
- Limited edition bits and spurs - We are working on great one of a kind (highest bidders) items for 2016.
- Bit buying/using guide - We try and present a wealth of information on our blog from our experience with trainers and professional riders. However, many opinions vary so greatly, as well as the general difference between different riders and their horses, that it is hard to offer a 'one-size-fits-all' bit guide. We will certainly look into a way to offer a one stop guide in the upcoming years.
Q: How often would you like to hear from us?
A: The most common answer (by far) was monthly.
Q: What year was TBBS established?
A: The correct answer is 1984. 83% had the correct answer.
Q: Do you have any other comments, questions, or concerns?
A: We felt the love of so many kind and positive responses! Thank you!!! Below we have listed responses that were seeking replies or additional information that were not already addressed above.
- More information on bit uses and which bit is best for which rider - Because there is such a variety in riders, horses, and learned styles it is very hard to give general suggestions to the public. We do try, through phone conversation and our blog, to offer very general advise. However, we often suggest either the trial bits or working with a trainer for more specific suggestions to each rider and horse.
- More non-Facebook contests - We offer a tab on our website filled with all our contests. This tab is updated continually as contest change throughout the year.
- Information about the team - We love that you want to know about us as individuals! We offer brief profiles of each employee on our 'Meet the staff' tab'.
- The ability to order a fully custom bit (whichever mouthpiece and shank) on the website - The 'Bit Creator' will hopefully by live this summer. We are sure this will quickly become a favorite page!
- Which bits are show legal to a specific discipline - We combed through rule books a while back and compiled the "Is this bit legal" blog post. This answers many of the major questions regarding different associations. We also offer for you to comment if you are looking for or have found additional associations you would like cited in the post. As always you are welcome to call or email us if you need a little help identifying your disciplines rules and legal bits.
- Can I have a bit made with my brand on the cheek? - You bet! We can put anything you like on the wider shanks or concho snaffles. Your only limitation is the size of the bit surface area.
If your questions were not answered here or you have additional thoughts please share through the comment form below!

What It Is
Kids can set sail with Jake and his ship with the LEGO Duplo Jake and the Never Land Pirates Jake's Pirate Ship Bucky building set. This set comes with 56 pieces for building Bucky and an island. Bucky features a sail, a lookout tower, an opening and closing window, and a cannon that actually shoots. On the island, kids can build and add a palm tree, bendable green leaves, and flowers along with a treasure chest, a shovel, and a sword. There are Skully-, gold doubloon-, and pirate-decorated bricks as well as basic Duplo bricks in different colors, shapes, and sizes. As with all Duplo sets, the pieces are large and chunky to make it safe and easy for young kids to build and play. This set also includes Jake and Captain Hook Duplo figures.
Is It Fun?
As far as LEGO Duplo sets go, this one is really a deluxe set. In addition to building, it engages kids in lots of imaginative play. Kids can build and rebuild Bucky and the island, and then battle Captain Hook, bury the treasure, escape to the island, or create any other adventures they want.

Who It's For
Jake's Pirate Ship Bucky is for Jake and the Never Land Pirates fans ages 2–5.
What To Be Aware Of

Willie Nelson and Family, NYE (Austin City Limits) 2014Saturday, January 3rd, 2015
I know you are as happy as I am when you hear Janis Tillerson is going to a Willie Nelson & Family show. We fans get photos like this. Thanks, again, Janis. She took all these photos.
Mickey Raphael and Billy Gibbons.
Willie Nelson & Family, and fans (NYE, Austin City Limits)Friday, January 2nd, 2015
Willie Nelson, Bobbie Nelson and Paul English spent a long time after the NYE's show, signing autographs and shaking hands. Janis Tillerson is holding onto a guitar that belongs to a woman, who would like Willie to sign her guitar. Willie, Paul, Bobbie all signed the guitar. Plus, Willie tossed his first bandanna to her that night. She was crying by the end of the evening, just feeling that love.
Paul English: The man behind Willie Nelson (Oxford American: Southern Music Issue)Thursday, December 4th, 2014
Order your copy here:
The Oxford American is proud to release the 16th annual Southern Music Issue, which honors the profound musical history of TEXAS in 160 pages of writing and art, along with a 25-song CD compilation.
The cover features a stunning portrait of Guy and Susanna Clark taken in 1975 by iconic Nashville photographer Jim McGuire. Guy Clark's song "My Favorite Picture of You," the title track from his Grammy-winning 2013 album—written for his wife just a year before she died in 2012—is a highlight of the CD.
Along with Clark, the Texas compilation features music that best exemplifies the state's rich, diverse sounds and traditions. Artists showcased on the album include Ray Price and Bob Wills, Billy Joe Shaver and James McMurtry, Buddy Holly and Waylon Jennings, Lee Ann Womack, Ornette Coleman, Sarah Jarosz, Freddy Fender, Willie Nelson, Barbara Lynn, Johnny Winter, and others.
In the magazine: Tamara Saviano on the poetry of Guy Clark; Joe Nick Patoski profiles Willie Nelson's longtime drummer, Paul "The Devil" English; Amanda Petrusich remembers Houston hip-hop genius DJ Screw; Dom Flemons interviews Arhoolie Records founder Chris Strachwitz; Rachel Monroe tries on Roy Orbison's glasses; Michelle García searches for the birth of Tejano music; Margaret Moser pays tribute to the Austin music scene; Tom Maxwell, Cynthia Shearer, and Nathan Salsburg profile Texas folklorists and the musicians they recorded—and much more. The issue also presents new poetry by John Poch, Naomi Shihab Nye, and David Tomas Martinez, and short fiction by Bret Anthony Johnston.
The Oxford American's Southern Music Issue has generated high praise during its years of publication. The Houston Chronicle described it as "the single best music-related magazine of any given year," while the Boston Globe simply termed the issue "a welcome fix." Chris Issak called it "a great, great magazine . . . like getting four years of Rolling Stone all in the same magazine." In December of 2012, New York Times critic Dwight Garner wrote that the Music Issue CDs "practically belong in the Smithsonian."
The Texas Music Issue was funded, in part, by a successful kickstarter campaign that raised $53,757 from 1,008 individuals.

Note to media editors:
Got gardening questions? Contact the Hortline at (515) 294-3108 (Monday-Friday; 10 a.m.-12 Noon and 1-4:30 p.m.) or send an e-mail to email@example.com. For more gardening information visit us at Yard and Garden Online at www.yardandgarden.extension.iastate.edu.
When can I harvest eggplant?
Begin harvesting the large, oval varieties when the fruit are 2 inches in diameter. Continue to harvest the fruit until they are 4 to 6 inches across. At the proper harvest stage, the fruit will be firm and shiny. Overmature fruit will be dull, seedy and tough. Remove the fruit with a knife or hand shears, leaving an inch of stem on each fruit.
Eggplant fruit do not keep well after harvesting. For best quality, it's generally best to leave the fruit on the plant until you are ready to use them. Eggplant fruit can be stored up to seven days at a temperature of 46 to 54 degrees and a relative humidity of 90 to 95 percent.
What is the bright yellow-flowering plant found along roadsides and in low maintenance lawns?
The yellow-flowering plant is probably birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus). Birdsfoot trefoil is a perennial plant in the legume family. The plant has an upright, spreading growth habit and can reach a height of 2 feet. The dark green leaves of birdsfoot trefoil appear to be composed of five leaflets. However, the compound leaves actually consist of three leaflets and two broad leaf-like stipules at the base of the leaf stalk. Plants produce small, pea-like flowers. Flowers are bright yellow to orange-yellow. A cluster of three to eight flowers are borne atop each flower stalk. The one-inch-long fruits (seed pods) somewhat resemble the toes on a bird's foot, hence the common name of birdsfoot trefoil. At maturity, the pods split and the halves twist, scattering the seeds.
Birdsfoot trefoil is native to Europe and Asia, but has become naturalized in parts of the United States. It tolerates compacted, infertile and poorly drained soils. The plant also is drought and salt tolerant. Birdsfoot trefoil adapts well to mowing. It is most commonly found along roadsides and in low maintenance grass areas.
Birdsfoot trefoil in lawns can be controlled with broadleaf herbicides. The most effective broadleaf herbicides are those products that contain one or more of the following compounds: 2,4-D, dicamba and triclopyr.
How often should I water my lawn?
Gardeners have two basic options when confronted by hot, dry weather. One option is to do nothing and allow the grass to go dormant. The alternative is to water the turfgrass during dry weather to maintain a green, actively growing lawn.
Most lawns in Iowa require approximately 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week. When watering the lawn, apply this amount in a single application or possibly two applications three or four days apart. Avoid frequent, light applications of water, which promote shallow rooting and lush growth. Lush, shallow-rooted turfgrass is less-drought tolerant. It also is more susceptible to pest problems. To determine the amount of water applied by a sprinkler, place two or three rain gauges within the spray pattern.
