Things I'm thinking about but can't make words out of them!
(If you want me to explain more I will)
Deathnote I was thinking, what if Light/ Raito reversed his thinking , you know? Like what if he killed good people in order to be the only good person on earth? What would happen to L … The world? It's quite plausible that he would do that … right? I kinda think that the world would be forced to be bad so that they would not get "punished" so that would make a world full of ruin.
Deathnote idea 2- SPOLIER ALERT - Someone told me that Light would end up dieing (DANG YOU FANSUBERS!!) and I was like 0_0 … thanks a lot. But it lead me to think " Such a powerful spirit would not give up that easily … maybe it's soul would carry on in another body … or by it self. Kinda like ghostwriter meets saw.
Deathnote idea 3 I always like to that villains had a reason for doing what they do ( if you consider Light a villain but for those who don't he was voted "2008's best anime villain so there!). Light's motives seem pretty solid, but what if there was something else that pushed him over the edge of sanity? Maybe the death of a loved one?
Deathnote idea 4 "The ethical answer to the question is no. You should not kill people even if they are bad." Light said that … but what if they trying to obtain ethicality trough non-moral situations … just like Light. I'm thinking of stories that explain the deaths and crimes of the persons that Light killed that tried to achieve that sort of … twilight morality, if you will. I want it to give back story to the person that was just a name in a book for Light.

Hi all,
Here's the latest painting I've been working on. It's already gone through 1 round of critiques (family/friends/tutors) and been improved from there. I did lose the cartoony feel it had originally in favour of more realism but it does look much better than it did. Now I'm appealing to the elite to see if I can bring this even further. Your thoughts as always are greatly appreciated

Some major anatomical issues here, both with structure as well as with proportions.
Since we're on the same eye level as the head, the face should be broken down in thirds; chin to bottom of nose, bottom of nose to brow line, brow line to hair line. That's the first frame in the animation below. Also, the ear needs to be moved up accordingly. The eye sits much deeper within the structure of the face. The second frame in the animation deals with structure. Eyes seen from the side simply do not look like you've painted it (you seem to have used the symbol for an eye seen from the front and slightly altered it), imagine a ball with the lids wrapping around it.
Overall, you need to get acquainted with a method for constrcuting the face (look up Loomis and/or the Reilly method) and do some studies to learn about the threedimensional qualities of the face since you're largely guessing at the form. Make use of reference as well when you attempt to paint the human face.

Thanks so much for your help it's really appreciated. I can see there are issues now with the proportions but that has really come from tweaking my first attempt at it. I'm really disappointed I've done this because I've spent the last couple weeks solid on construction studying Vilppu's method of drawing the skull outwards and then I obliterated it all with liquify when I was 'fixing' things. Also another reason is that as I mentioned the sketch was a lot cartoonier and I see that I've adjust some proportions and not others.
Extra grateful for your placement of the eye because I do feel I was guessing with it, even looking at reference. I also did attempt to have the eyelid wrap round the eye but didn't go about it properly.
Thanks for your advice here man it's back to work for me now. So disappointed I messed up on the stuff I've worked so much at.

An insight into the history and the drama of creating porcelain in France and the working conditions of the people who created the porcelain.
We visited all the china manufacturers that we could find in Limoges. We love Haviland China and completely enjoyed the museum and the factory store. It is hard to find, but well worth the visit.
The porcelain of Limoges is beautiful. The museum had settings from kingdoms centuries ago. Bought 12 place settings along with serving dishes and other delightful pieces. All shipped back to Canada without one piece broken. Worth the visit for sure.
If you love china/porcelain then this is the place for you. I insisted on visiting with my husband who was quite reluctant. We both thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything is in French but management assured me that in a few months this will be rectified as the new curator has it as a priority. There is a great video on how...

Cream Horns
|Frozen puff pastry
|1⁄2 Pound, thawed at room temperature for about 30 minutes
|Egg white
|1 , lightly beaten
|1 Ounce
|For filling
|Red jam
|1 Tablespoon
|Double cream
|1⁄4 Pint, lightly whipped
1) Preheat oven to temperature of 425 degrees.
2) On a floured surface, roll out the dough thinly. Cut it into long strips about ½-inch wide.
3) Wrap the dough strips around metal cornet-shaped molds. With water, moisten the dough-'s edges.
4) Brush with the egg white. Sprinkle with sugar.
5) On baking sheets, place the horns.
6) Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, till the pastry is golden in color and well risen. After 7 minutes of baking, turn the horns over. Do not let the sugar become too brown.
7) Move the horns to a wire rack and let them cool for 10 to 15 minutes. Unmold.
8) If you wish to freeze the horns, flash freeze them till firm and then carefully pack them in a rigid container. Separate each layer with foil. Seal, label and store in the freezer.
9) To serve the horns without freezing, place them on a decorative serving platter, fill with jam and whipped cream and serve at room temperature or slightly chilled. If using frozen horns, first thaw them at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours and then fill with whipped cream and jam. These make an excellent sweet snack


text: Editors' Review+ by: Download.com staff on March 20, 2015 Free WAV to MP3 Converter generates MP3 versions of your WAV files intuitively. This free utility comes with just a handful of options and no support for other types of conversions. On the plus side, the conversion process is quite speedy, albeit buggy, if you try to convert too many files at once.Pros Seamless interface: Thanks to its intuitive toolbar, Free WAV to MP3 Converter is very easy to use. The only downside is the lack of drag-and-drop integration. Fast: We were impressed by the speed at which the app converted our WAV files -- a group of six WAV files totaling 12MB were converted in less than six seconds. Multiple bit rate options: From the software's options you can set a custom bit rate for your output media. The available bit rates range from 46kbit/s to 320kbit/s.Cons Unstable: When we stress-tested the app, we discovered that it crashes if you load a large number of files and press Start. Single-purpose app: The software handles only one type of audio conversion -- WAV to MP3. There isn't even an option for an MP3 to WAV conversion.Bottom Line Free WAV to MP3 Converter is perfect for those who need to convert their WAV recordings into MP3 files. Due to its very constrained nature, however, this software will be useless to anyone else. If you do decide to use it, make sure you convert your music in small batches in order to avoid app crashes. read more + Publisher's Description+ From Convert Audio Free: Encode your ripped WAV files into high-quality, noncorrupted MP3 files so you can store your favorite CDs or share them online. This program gives you the option of creating MP3s at 40-bit rates and three sampling rates and in two channels. Batch-convert unlimited WAV files in the fast and easy WinZip-style interface, and preview them before encoding. Also, encode WAV files into custom file sizes for use with portable MP3 players.

The Labour leader said the previous format of three debates between the three main party leaders should be a "starting point" but that he was open to moves such as a less formal setting and greater voter participation in any repeat of the 2010 confrontations. He used a Radio Times article to call for immediate negotiations, accusing his main rival of being the "single biggest obstacle" to them going ahead and suggesting the Tories were keen to deny his cash-strapped party vital publicity. Britain's first such debates, between Mr Cameron, Gordon Brown and Nick Clegg, were staged on the BBC, ITV and Sky News in 2010 after prolonged negotiations between the parties and the TV companies, which resulted in very strict rules on the style of questioning and the division of time for leaders' answers.
Mr Cameron has since complained they "took all the life out" of the campaign amid constant speculation over whether the practice would be revived, and if so in what form.
There is speculation that he could seek to exclude Mr Clegg, now Deputy Prime Minister in the Tory-led coalition.

The Seattle Reign FC is an American professional women's soccer team based in Seattle, Washington. The team began play in 2013 in the new eight-team National Women's Soccer League that receives support from the United States Soccer Federation (USSF), the Canadian Soccer Association (CSA) and the Mexican Football Federation (FMF).
In November 2012, it was confirmed that a Seattle-based women's professional soccer team owned by Bill Predmore (founder and CEO of Seattle-based digital marketing agency, POP) had been accepted into a new women's professional soccer league, later named National Women's Soccer League.[2][3] Former general manager of the Seattle Sounders Women and Seattle Sounders FC Director of Youth Programs,[4] Amy Carnell, was named General Manager.
Team name, crest, and colors unveiled[edit]
On December 19, 2012, the name and logo was unveiled as Seattle Reign FC. The team's colors were announced as white, platinum, royal blue and midnight black.[5] The name was selected in part as homage to the first professional women's sports team in Seattle, Seattle Reign, a defunct professional basketball team in the American Basketball League (ABL).[5]
Owner, Bill Predmore stated, "Today's announcement is the result of a thoughtful process to identify the name that best represents the values of our club, articulates our long-term ambitions and celebrates the community within which our supporters live. Reign FC meets all of those objectives and at the same time honors the legacy of professional women's sports in Seattle. Like the Seattle Sounders, whose fans selected a name that honored those who pioneered the sport of soccer in Seattle in the early 1970s, Seattle Reign FC was, in part, selected to pay homage those visionaries — the leaders and players of the Seattle Reign women's basketball team — who pioneered professional women's sports in Seattle."[6]
Inaugural season[edit]
On December 21, 2012, the team announced Laura Harvey as their first head coach. Harvey was head coach of Arsenal L.F.C. from 2010-2012 after serving as an assistant for two years, assisted and then coached Birmingham City L.F.C. from 2002-2008, and served as an assistant coach for England's U-17, U-19 and U-23 women's national teams from 2005-2011.[7]
On January 11, 2013, as part of the NWSL Player Allocation, Kaylyn Kyle (CAN), Teresa Noyola (MEX), Megan Rapinoe (USA), Amy Rodriguez (USA), Jenny Ruiz (MEX), Hope Solo (USA), and Emily Zurrer (CAN) were named to the Seattle team.[8][9][10] On January 18, the Reign selected Christine Nairn, Mallory Schaffer, Kristen Meier, and Haley Kopmeyer at the 2013 NWSL College Draft.[11][12] On February 4, 2013, it was announced that the team had signed four free agents: Kate Deines, Jessica Fishlock, Tiffany Cameron, and Lindsay Taylor.[13] During the February 7, 2013 NWSL Supplemental Draft, the team selected Nikki Krzysik, Lauren Barnes, Laura Heyboer, Liz Bogus, Michelle Betos and Kaley Fountain.[14]
Leading into the preseason, it was learned that the Reign would be without all of their U.S. national team allocated players for almost half of the season. National team forward, Amy Rodriguez, announced she was pregnant with her first child and would not be playing during the inaugural season.[15] U.S. national team goalkeeper, Hope Solo, would be away for the first part of the season after recovering from wrist surgery and Megan Rapinoe had signed with French side, Olympique Lyonnais, from January to June and would miss at least nine games.[16][17] After traveling to Japan in the preseason to play matches against defending L. League champion INAC Kobe Leonessa, Fukuoka J. Anclas, and Nojima Stella Kanagawa,[18] the Reign faced their first regular season match against the Chicago Red Stars at Benedictine University, in which Seattle's first college draft pick, Christine Nairn, scored the Reign's first goal of the season via a header off an assist from Liz Bogus.[19] The Red Stars later tied the game 1-1, but the point that Seattle earned in the game would be its only for the next nine games. Without the U.S. national team players or a veteran goalscorer up front, the team struggled to win games. Although the losses were for the most part consistently low-scoring games, it was apparent that the Reign was missing some final ingredients for success.
In June 2013, head coach Laura Harvey began making some trades and signing new international players. With the trades and the return of U.S. national team players, Solo and Rapinoe, the Reign began to turn the season around with a 1-1 tie against the Western New York Flash.[20] The game would be the first of a six-game undefeated streak for the Reign with two ties and four wins.[21] After losing to regional rival, Portland Thorns FC, 2-1 in the season finale in front of a sold-out crowd of 3,855, the Reign ended the 2013 NWSL season seventh in the league with a 5-14-3 record.[22]
2014 season[edit]
During the 2014 season, the Reign set a league record unbeaten streak of 16 games. During the 16 game stretch, the Reign compiled a 13-0-3 record. The streak came to an end July 12, 2014 in a match against the Chicago Red Stars that ended 1-0 in favor of the Red Stars.[23] The team finished first in the regular season clinching the NWSL Shield for the first time.[24] After defeating the Washington Spirit 2-1 in the playoff semi-finals, the Reign were defeated 2-1 by FC Kansas City during the championship final.[25] Following the regular season, the team earned several league awards. Kim Little won the Golden Boot[26] and Most Valuable Player awards;[27] Laura Harvey was named Coach of the Year;[28] Kendall Fletcher, Jess Fishlock, Little and Nahomi Kawasumi were named to the NWSL Best XI team while goalkeeper Hope Solo and defenders Lauren Barnes and Stephanie Cox were named to the Second XI team.[29]

During the inaugural season of the NWSL, Reign FC played at Starfire Stadium in Tukwila, Washington.[30] The stadium is located approximately 12 miles from downtown Seattle and is the training facility for Seattle Sounders FC, as well as where the Sounders play their U.S. Open Cup matches. With a seating capacity for 4,500 spectators, the stadium also features a press box with full scoreboard and sound system capabilities. The pitch features FieldTurf.[31]
In February 2014, it was announced that the team would be moving to Memorial Stadium, located at the Seattle Center, for the 2014 and 2015 seasons.[32] The stadium features an artificial turf pitch that was installed in 2013 and a seating capacity of 12,000 spectators although seating capacity was set at 6,000 for the beginning of the 2014 season.[33] The stadium was the previous home of the Seattle Sounders from 1974-1975 when the team played in the North American Soccer League (NASL) and from 1995 to 2002 when the team played in the United Soccer League.[33] It has also been the home of the main stage for the annual Bumbershoot Festival and numerous other festivals and concerts.[34]
The main supporters group for the Reign is the Royal Guard. Founded by Matt Banks, Kiana Coleman, Stephanie Van Slageren, and Alex Thomas in April 2013, the group is the first fully professional women's supporters group in Washington state's history.[35][36][37]
Ownership and team management[edit]
Reign FC is owned by Bill and Teresa Predmore. Bill Predmore is the CEO of POP, a Seattle-based digital marketing agency. After the agency did some work with the Seattle Sounders, Predmore had joked that he would give the team a discount in exchange for a piece of the team. Although it didn't happen, the experience inspired Predmore to begin thinking of owning a club. Although a Major League Soccer team was out of reach, he started to consider a women's team. "From a financial perspective, it was achievable," Predmore said. "But I also thought I could actually make a difference. Ultimately, my goal is to build the best women's club in the world. That won't happen tomorrow or this year, but in 10 years or 20 years that's where we want to be."[38] Predmore's wife, Teresa, played college soccer at Oregon State University and soccer is one of her lifelong passions.
Leading up to the inaugural season of the NWSL, Amy Carnell was named General Manager for the team. Within a week of regular season play, Carnell resigned from her position citing "personal reasons" and head coach Laura Harvey assumed the role - a setup similar to what she was used to as coach of the Arsenal L.F.C. in England.[39][40][41] Sam Laity is the team's lead assistant coach[42] while Ben Dragavon is the goalkeeper coach.[43]
Seattle Reign games are broadcast live by Bootstrapper Studios via YouTube. The broadcasts are called by KOMO News Radio Sports Director, Tom Glasgow, with color commentary provided by Lesle Gallimore, head coach of the Washington Huskies.[44] During the 2013 season, a select number of league games were broadcast on Fox Sports.[45] During the 2014 season, several league games were broadcast by ESPN.[46] In March 2015, the team became one of the first sports teams to use the newly-released app Periscope to stream a preseason friendly against the Portland Pilots.[47]

In a major speech last month, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke pledged to buy more longer-term securities if the economy continues to worsen. But how exactly will that boost the economy? And will this benefit somehow trickle down to individuals? And given the fact that interest rates are already very low, what can the Fed do to stimulate the economy beyond further cutting these rates? The Nation's DC Editor Chris Hayes and Washington Post economic writer Neil Irwin answer these questions and more on this week's edition of The Breakdown.

Originally written on The Flagrant Fan | Last updated 12/22/12
The Seattle Mariners took a flier yesterday and signed Jeremy Bonderman to a minor league contract. While of itself, this is nothing to get too worked up about. Broken down pitchers are signed to such deals every year. Sometimes, like in 2011 with Garcia and Colon for the Yankees, it works out. Most of the time it does not. And to be sure, Tigers fans will probably not root overly hard for Bonderman to make it back to the majors. He became symbolic of failure to that fan base. But for the rest of us, Jeremy Bonderman was not treated very well by baseball and a successful return would be sweet. Tiger fans will counter that Bonderman made quite a bit of money for his problems, and that would be correct. Bonderman was overpaid by the Tigers his last few years there. But that only seems right because of how his early career was mishandled. The beginning starts with the Oakland A's and a prominent part in the Moneyball book. Bonderman supposedly was the only high school junior ev...

Evansville HotelsA bustling metropolis where Indiana congregates with Illinois and Kentucky, Evansville sits on the banks of the meandering Ohio River. A spirited hub, with Southern-style friendliness and a student population to fuel its vibrancy, The River City's large offerings come with an undeniable dose of small town charm. Enjoy strolls along the river, nature's most majestic creatures in a zoo, live it up in casino, or spend it up in a mall. Evansville is one of those places with a little something for everyone.Things to seeDowntown's Ford Center is a hive of large scale entertainment. With a capacity for 11,000 spectators, the area hosts sporting events from basketball to ice hockey, along with some glitzy music concerts. From the Amazonia Rainforest to the African Savannah, Mesker Park Zoo's 45 acres take you on a worldwide wildlife tour. Among its 700 creatures you'll encounter everything from tigers and zebras, to wolves and komodo dragons. After you've taken a walk on the wild side, take a turn around the zoo's botanic gardens, home to some rather exotic floral finery. If Luck's being a lady, make a night of it at Tropicana Evansville. A riverside mecca for retail and restaurants, its glitzy centerpiece is the 2,700 capacity riverboat casino. A replica of a 130 year old steamboat on the outside, hedonistic hijinks come in glittery Las Vegas style within. With over 130 shops and 3 department stores, Eastland Mall offers some big brand retail therapy should you hit the jackpot.Hotels in EvansvilleA city that's no stranger to hospitality, you'll find hotels in Evansville to suit every need, pocket, and preference, whether you want a simple en-suite room or a family sized suite complete with kitchenette and living areas.

There's a healthy supply of thriftier motels and hotels in Evansville too, offering a basic, but comfortable stay nonetheless.Where to stayA mish mash of historic architecture and modernity set beside the river, a hotel in Evansville's downtown gives you a slice of everything. Shop for antiques and one-of-a-kind gifts along Main Street, wine and dine on the waterfront, or take in the tones of the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra at Victory Theatre. And don't forget the historic must-sees – the grand Old Court House and Evansville's most recognizable landmark, the Four Freedoms Monument. South across the river on its Kentucky bank, Henderson brims with the historic remnants of its wealthy past. Featuring many a quaint offering, including a local Farmers' Market, the city is known for its bird-watching, horse-racing, sizzling BBQs, and Blues and Bluegrass music festivals.How to get to EvansvilleJust 3 miles to the north of the city, Evansville Regional Airport provides a convenient gateway for those flying in.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Weddingweekend2014 Newly remodeled We stayed here this weekend and the hotel has a beautiful lobby and newly renovated rooms. The room and bathroom were beautiful, our biggest frustration was the a/c unit in the room. They have "motion activated" units so every time we came back to our room it was 75 degrees and we had to get the a/c to turn back on by walking around the room. It would cool down by a half hour later but we had the same problem during the night-no motion and it would turn off so room would get hot and we would have to get up until it kicks back on and room was never a nice comfortable temp. Maintenance came promptly to make sure our unit worked and explained this "efficient feature" of their units. My review would be 5 stars all the way down if our room was the temp we set it at during our whole stay. June 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Zeppelin Excellent I stayed in a room in the Executive Wing which was very nice. Very comfortable. The pillows are amazing. The staff was very helpful. I felt like I was in a luxury resort. because of the atmosphere. June 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by pepper46 quiet hotel Always enjoy staying here. Hadn't made reservations because we were traveling on a whim. Called ahead and the reservation was waiting for us. June 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Becky59 This hotel has great staff I previously completed surveys for Lela and Brianne in the restaurant (they were just wonderful!), and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the woman who cleaned my room (don't know her name, but she was small in stature, dark hair, had some trouble with English). She did a super job of cleaning my room - it was always spotless and very clean! She was also very pleasant and helpful to me when my room key didn't work. Thank you! June 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by cstak25 Great palce to stop along the way On our way to Pierre and we were fortunate that Sheraton was in Sioux Falls. Enjoyed the breakfast buffet but it was not up to par with the Sheraton Towers in Singapore. June 16, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Joey12345678 Attractive hotel that is not worth the price When we checked into the hotel, we were impressed with the inner view the rooms have. We were disappointed to be sent to the "executive" portion of the hotel with no such view. When we first settled into our room, we realized we were not given the room we reserved online; we were supposed to have a room with two queens and a sleeper sofa, but there was no sleeper sofa; we called the front desk and stated as such, but the front desk records did not match the email I had received and we were only given a rollaway bed. The bathroom only had three towels even though there were four guests; we called the front desk for more towels, but we did not get the towels until around midnight after we were all asleep, waking us up. The AC was extremely loud. The tub had an unusable broken stopper just lying in the tub. Upon checkout, I was told I would receive an email with the receipt for the stay; over 24 hours later, I have not received this email. I would not recommend staying at this hotel. It is an expensive hotel with no extra amenities over its cheaper competitors. June 15, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by iavike room 330 Paid for 6 rooms. last to check in. Was given a handicap king room. Was told bed was small king. essentially a queen. No wash clothes, only 2 towels. Bed very uncomfortable, mattress pad came off during night. When security guard brought wash clothes I caught her sneezing into the hand she was carrying the wash clothes. next morning I went to front desk and asked to be given other room. Wife went down and they tried to tell her that there were no rooms available. She inquired that no one was checking out that day. Finally they gave us 412. This room was extremely nice. Was just disappointed that we had to argue for a different room. How many rooms did Pizza Ranch reserve? They do this every other year. I would think that you guys would go out of your way to make sure that everything isperfect. June 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by ChicagoSean Sioux Falls Solid Option Had a quick trip to Sioux Falls for business and in researching possible hotels, believed this to be the best. Checked in around 10pm. Room was large, clean and modern. Had a drink at the bar before closing and enjoyed a tasty breakfast in the morning with client. I would stay here again on my next visit to Sioux Falls! June 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sunny2010 Very asthetic, but not enough complementary features This hotel was beautiful. Top to bottom it was very modern and comfortable. You definitely pay the price for the pretty view. I would suggest more complementary features. I had to pay to use the internet in my room and for breakfast. June 9, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by strebe review Wedding reception was at the hotel so we stayed. Did not know where the rooms for the block were held. A bit noisy until the bar closed, but good after it closed. Bed and pillows great. Tried restaurant Friday night and hostess was hard to find. Sunday morning the same issue. Possibly short staff because someone didn't show up. June 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by NoshuttleSally Disappointed with their promise! I had made reservations about 3 weeks prior to this weekend, and had talked to a manager that promised they would provide a shuttle service to AND FROM Ribfest. So I booked the rooms and paid more than I normally would have to just sleep and check out, considering the shuttle would make up for the cost of the room. Upon checking in, I asked about the shuttle, and they then told me they would bring us there, but would not have anyone available to pick us up after hours! SOOOOO....we spent WAY TOO much to sleep a few hours, and I'm not happy! Also, VERY disappointed that there were no fridges in the rooms! REALLY? Even "Roach motels" have them now! So, it cost us $158.00 for no fridge and no shuttle as promised. I would've booked at another hotel had I known they were going to go back on their word! Expensive night that didn't need to be!!!!!!!!!! June 2, 2014

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anon1234567 Internet Stayed for a conference and understand conference rooms means those that are not the choice rooms. That is not a problem, with the exception that the rooms that are far often have little to no wireless internet signal which I did experience. No one on staff seemed concerned. May 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Norm64 This hotel has good features I was attending a conference at this facility. The room was fairly clean. I have two complaints the noise from the bar area was easily heard in my room and maybe i missed the fine print but i made the mistake of opening the water bottle they provided and they charged me over $4.00 for a bottle of water absolutely absurd. May 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by HomeGirl2014 I stay here whenever I visit Sioux Falls This hotel is beautiful, open, and has lots of natural light. The staff are so accomodating, and I've been here often. so the manager remembers me. The rooms are beautiful and well-appointed. The Sheraton Sioux Falls is always my first choice. May 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by AAR5 Recieved Service with a Smile! This was my first visit to the property and believe me, it will not be the last. From the time I checked in, I thought the experience was great, but when I checked out, a completely new level was attained. Rhonda, just simply not me off of my feet with the professionalism and character. Bob, was the pitch hitter with the courtesy, let me know I was in the correct hotel. Now the bar tenders, Debbie and Michelle, should be promoted due to their awesome service and Bree, in the breakfast area, her smile and service was the icing on the hotel cake. Thanks for a great experience and looking forward to the next trip!! April 28, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by SVHTS Best stay on the road this year! Anytime I can stay at a Sheraton, I make sure I do. The Sioux Falls Sheraton is one of the best ones I've stayed at.

Rated 5 out of 5 by USNChief Outstanding service, friendly staff & great location. Got a bit of attitude with the reservations team & my reservation did get messed up. However, after getting beyond them, Bill, Kristen & Rhonda at the check-in desk did an outstanding job of making up for that inconvenience. I would also like to mention the incredibly good customer service skills that Matthew showed when I had him on the phone. I realize that he doesn't work for your company any longer, but it was Matt that got me to stay at your hotel after my initial encounter with your reservation staff. Finally, I'd be unfair if I didn't mention the superior customer service my counter part and I received from Nikki & Lela in the restaurant. All in all it was truly a pleasant visit. Thanks to your staff for a job well done. April 13, 2014

Extremely strong steroids weren't exactly obscure in olympic use by that time. So who knows. Not all steroids are bulking ones. Some help put on lean muscle, some are minor muscle builders but serious fat burners which is almost impossible to do otherwise, and so on.

Over the past 50 years, we have nearly tripled agricultural outputs. But this so-called "Green Revolution" comes at unbearable costs for the environment, public health and social welfare. Industrial farming with its dependency on fossil fuels, toxic inputs and ignorance for common goods has proven to be a dead-end road.
Genetic engineering enables scientists to create plants, animals and micro-organisms by manipulating genes in a way that does not occur naturally. These genetically modified organisms (GMOs) can spread through nature and interbreed with natural organisms, thereby contaminating non-"GE" environments and future generations in an unforeseeable and uncontrollable way.
"As a native of South Africa, and someone who has seen first-hand starvation in Africa I am often asked how it is that I can be opposed to genetic engineering. This questioning assumes that genetic engineering leads to healthier, sustainable and more abundant crops – but this is far from the truth. In fact, genetic engineering has the potential to increase hunger around the globe. This of course jars with most people's logic (and defies brilliant marketing campaigns by industry) that the companies responsible for producing food globally could actually cause further food scarcity. It angers me that corporate scientists and global genetic engineering companies can still get away with making the bogus claim that their seeds will feed the poor, when in fact their only goal is greater profits." -Kumi Naidoo, Greenpeace International Executive Director
Proponents argue that genetic engineering is worth the risk because it helps alleviate the global food crisis. However, globally speaking, lack of food is not the cause of hunger. Political challenges and failures are the cause of world hunger with an estimated one billion victims. In other words, more food doesn't necessarily mean fewer hungry.
Also, according to recent carbon footprint analysis, the entire chain of food production and consumption accounts for 20 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing these greenhouse gas emissions and increasing the long-term storage of carbon in the soil are therefore essential measures to prevent a climate catastrophe.
Organic agriculture is a rapidly growing sector of agriculture that focuses on the health, ecology, fairness and care of the farming process. Organic practices use local resources and offers opportunities for increasing farmers' income and improving their livelihood.
To feed the world sustainably into the future, fundamental changes are needed in our farming and food systems. Greenpeace believes we need a thorough and radical overhaul of present international and national agricultural policies. You can help by using your power as a consumer to buy locally grown, organic food and urging your Representatives to pass laws that protect our health and eliminate genetic engineering.

Thousands more people applying for food stamps mean wait times in 10 Colorado counties have pushed beyond 30 days, in violation of federal law.
Almost 60 percent of people applying for food assistance in Jefferson County waited longer than 30 days to get their applications through the system in January. In Adams County, that number was 28 percent. Statewide, 20 percent of food-stamp applications were processed late.
The problem, state officials say, is sheer volume.
So many people crammed the El Paso County human-services office earlier this month to apply for food stamps that the fire department was called because the building was overcrowded. The county was late on 19 percent of its applications in January.
In Jefferson County, 1,059 people applied for food stamps in January, up from 459 a year ago.
"We're well aware of our No. 1 performance in the wrong direction," said Lynnae Flora, director of community assistance for the Jefferson County Department of Human Services. "I don't think we're doing our jobs as good as we could be. I'm asking why."
Statewide, about 20,000 more people applied for food stamps last month than did so a year earlier. Officials attribute the jump to the deepening recession.
Even before the latest delays, Colorado was on a federal watch list for chronic problems in its food-stamp program. Since 2004, counties have struggled with a computer program, the Colorado Benefits Management System, which has delayed applications and given some people money that wasn't due them.
The state reimbursed the federal government $9.4 million in December for some of those mistakes.
Jean Daniel, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, said the department is trying to be patient with Colorado. Almost half the states in the country are under corrective action, but about 86 percent of the food- stamp cases nationally are processed within 30 days.
"We would always want things to move quicker," Daniel said. "States are struggling to do the right thing."
Ultimately, the federal government could impose financial penalties on Colorado, though Daniel said that was a last resort. "The last thing they need is to be hit," she said.
Cindy White-Gant, a 51-year-old disabled former Wal-Mart employee, has waited for a food-stamp card from Adams County since December. She said she's down to rice, cans of beans and butter in her refrigerator for her and her 18-year-old daughter, who has been unsuccessfully looking for work.
The family just dumped their cable- TV service because they couldn't afford it, and White-Gant says she pays for two Cricket cellphones so her daughter can get calls back from potential employers and so White-Gant can call 911 if she needs medical help. She has had several surgeries and is on Medicaid.
"They (Adams County) say on the voice mail that they'll get back to you within eight hours," White-Gant said. "I've been waiting for a month and a half. I can't feed a teenager beans every day. She's 95 pounds."
The state has ordered its 10 largest counties to give weekly reports with cases and application dates. State officials will go through the list and remind them when a person is nearing the 30-day limit.
Even before the steep economic downturn last fall, Arapahoe, El Paso, Denver, Jefferson and Adams counties had food-stamp wait lists. Jefferson County added 12 full-time people last year to help with the work.
"We (the state) keep it in front of them," said Liz McDonough, spokeswoman for the state Department of Human Services. "It's disappointing because we had made progress."

Lost: The Complete Fifth Season Dharma Initiative Orientation Kit Blu-Ray DVD
1 Recommendation
Three's recommendation
The Blu-ray set is packaged as an initiation kit for Dharma recruits, complete with a VHS "orientation video," as well as a three-ring binder with embroidered patches, guidebooks to different Dharma stations, a CD soundtrack featuring music by Geronimo Jackson and of course the episodes themselves, which are housed in little sleeves that look like old floppy disks. While this is unquestionably a terrifically cool set for serious fans and longtime followers (especially stuff like the patches, which according to the content information "MAY" include the exclusive submarine patch).
My Collections:
amazing! I didn't know you were a LOST fan. cause, well, I'm the biggest!

Forrest Gump was not a real person. Novelist Winston Groom created the character who appeared in his 1986 novel "Forrest Gump." The same character appears in the 1994 movie of the same name.
Winston Groom says that he got his inspiration for the character's name when he returned from serving in the Vietnam War and bought a suit at a store called Gump's in San Francisco. The novel draws on Groom's war experiences as well as on his experiences as a Southerner. Certain scenes in the movie are loosely based on real-life people, including Sammy Davis, a soldier who saved many people and won a Medal of Honor. The film uses footage of Davis with Tom Hanks' digitally-inserted head in the scene in which Gump wins the same award.
