Buy Used and Save the Difference
The Duggar family motto is buy used and save the difference. On the show you see them going to Aldi's and thrift stores. I guess when you have so many kids used makes sense. Even two or three member household have to be frugal in today's economy.kids outgrow clothes and toys fast. Who isn't hunting bargains these days? Buy used and save the difference is hard to live by. It is tempting to buy the latest fashions, Cd's or appliances.
The Duggars have been called hypocritical on a few occasions. Michelle bought brand new layettes for Jordyn because she thought it would be her last baby. Josh and Anna bought Joy anna a brand new purse for her birthday. We are also seeing somename- brand clothing pop up. One of the boys got a new bicycle for this birthday. Michelle got anew dress for ther 25th wedding anniversary. Yes, they break over and relax the rules sometimes( and it pays to have show on TV).
The Duggars claim to never buy much new stuff. They never drive new vehicles or buy name-brand food.Michele talks about in an older interview the kid's play-do dried up. They went to yard sell and found cans for 5 cents. The bus was bought for $2100 from a hockey team. Actually I wonder if the Duggars are wise everything buying used. Their old bus cost $500 to fill up with gas. After 4 trips,it would be almost the cost of the bus and this isn't including repairs. I guess public transportation is out of the question with
so many kids.
'Buy used and save the difference' can only be taken so far. I read an article on things never to buy used.There are some things not worth buying used. YOu never know where the items came from at thrift stores. I couldn't take a chance on new shoes not knowing where they came from. The Duggars are known to buy used shoes. Old shoes can hurt your feet and cause warts not to mention little creepy things. I would rather spend a few extra dollars on new shoes.
Payless and Walmart carry low price shoes.The same goes for old mattresses and bedding. You never know you may be getting a hold of molds, body fluids, and other nasty stuff. Im not saying second-hand is bad. It is best knowing the source it came from and shop around before you buy.

Buy Used and Save the DIfference

The stage is set in Minnesota for a gubernatorial campaign which is expected to be a major test case of unrestricted corporate and interest group election spending following the Supreme Court's ruling in the Citizens United case earlier this year.
Democrat and former U.S. Sen. Mark Dayton narrowly defeated three primary challengers Tuesday to move to a face-off with Republican state Rep. Tom Emmer and Independence Party candidate Tom Horner in November. One of the men will replace outgoing Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who chose not to seek a third term.
For Minnesotans, the choices could not be more distinct, reflecting the deep partisan divide across the country. Dayton has proposed raising state income tax rates to levels already among the highest in the country, while Emmer wants to cut taxes and shrink state government in the face of a historic budget deficit. The men are vying for an office that has been held by generally moderate and progressive leaders for decades.
"I don't think you'll find a starker choice anywhere in the U.S.," said Steven Schier, political science professor at Carleton College. "And Mark Dayton's tax plan is such that it's going to attract a lot of corporate spending in the campaign… because the business community is really hostile to income tax hikes on high wage earners."
Several major Minnesota-based corporations, including Target Corp., Best Buy and snowmobile maker Polaris, have unambiguously moved to support Emmer in a way they have not supported any candidate before, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in the primary, even though Emmer ran largely unopposed.
The pro-business political group MN Forward, established in the wake of Citizens United, collected the business donations and spent the money on advertisements supporting the conservative candidate. Target Corp. donated $150,000, Best Buy gave $100,000 and Polaris gave $100,000 during the reporting period ending July 6.
"You've got a wealthy Democrat facing off with a relatively poor Republican but who has corporations weighing in on his behalf," said David Schultz, an expert in campaign finance and election law at Hamline University.
Schultz estimates the fall campaign could see up to a 50 percent increase in corporate and union campaign spending this year compared to the last election – a sign of what could come in other hotly contested races across the country as well.
"Third party spending reached the millions of dollars in the primary. I've never seen that before in Minnesota. And it was almost exclusively driven by the Citizens United case," Schultz said.
But experts say the Minnesota gubernatorial campaign also illustrates some of the pitfalls facing companies in their increased, explicit involvement in election year politics.
Target Corp. sparked a firestorm in recent weeks after gay rights advocates, employees and some customers protested the company's financial support for Emmer, who opposes same-sex marriage. The company's CEO Gregg Steinhafel later apologized.
Schultz said much of the backlash at Target may have been due to the image they have been publicly cultivating with their customers. "You didn't see much backlash at Best Buy or Polaris because they aren't billing themselves as socially-responsible," he said.

Full detailed profile on Rebecca Fowler Played by Laura Koffman on All My Children Daytime Soap Opera.
Laura Koffman (Laura Koffman)
Birthday: October 29, 1964
Jesse and Angie read the story and then see Frankie. He is still angry and tells Jesse that he should have been honest from the beginning. Angie listens. Jesse says he did what he did because he loves his family. Angie interrupts to say Rebecca is awake. When Jesse leaves, she tells Frankie that Jesse needed Rebecca and they shouldn't judge him for that. "Jesse had no one. She saved him," she says. Jesse returns and Frankie tells him how hurt and angry he still is. He apologizes for not being more understanding. "I forgive you," he says and they hug. They go into Rebecca's room and join hands as they observe the moment of silence.
Jesse goes to talk to Rebecca and apologizes for leaving her at a time like this. She says she is the one who let him go and now she needs him to let her go! Angie listens. Jesse says he can't walk away because he loved her. Rebecca says he has to focus on Natalia. They talk about a shared sunrise when they were still a family. He holds her hand and she goes to sleep. He leaves her room.
Frankie sees Angie and Jesse with Natalia; he is short with them and walks off. Natalia goes to Rebecca's room; Angie and Jesse break the news of Rebecca's illness. Rebecca says she doesn't want to undergo any kind of therapy because it will take her strength. Jesse says he wants Natalia to be part of his family with Angie and she runs out of the room. Jesse isn't sure what to do. He takes Rebecca's hand and apologizes for not being a better man; he also apologizes to Angie for not telling her the truth sooner. He asks what Rebecca needs. Rebecca has a seizure and Angie calls for help.
At the hospital, Jesse tries to talk to Frankie but Frankie blows him off. Jesse is in the hall when he sees Angie with Rebecca and Natalia! Jesse is a little freaked out, especially when Angie says she and Rebecca are getting along just fine. Both Rebecca and Angie try to ease Jesse's worries but this only weirds him out more. Natalia tells Jesse that he has to talk to Rebecca about 'their talk'; Rebecca says there is nothing wrong with her but the more she says this, the more Angie wonders if it is true.
Back in Natalia's room, Rebecca says that Natalia was wrong to come to Pine Valley because she has hurt Jesse and the rest of his family. Angie walks in. Rebecca asks if she can hurry Natalia's release – and then collapses!
Angie leaves Natalia's room and bumps into Rebecca. They each recognize the other; Angie tells her Natalia's room number and says she'll be okay.
Rebecca gets to Natalia's room but refuses to talk to Nat about Jesse when the girl brings him up. Natalia won't drop the subject, which upsets Rebecca. She walks out and runs into Angie. Rebecca apologizes for messing up her life but Angie says this made her see things clearly. Rebecca asks if Jesse is happy; Angie says he is. She says she made the right decision. Angie asks if she plans to see Jesse and Rebecca says she is only in town for Natalia!

Matthew Hamlin of Goose Creek received his Eagle Scout award May 12 in Summerville.
For his service project for the highest award in Boy Scouting, Hamlin led a successful effort to build a baseball field at Summerville Catholic School.
Hamlin and his twin sister Morgan are the children of Beth Howard Regan and Dr. Mike Regan of Goose Creek, and the late Gary Hamlin. They are grandchildren of John and Frances Howard of Georgetown.
The Regan family are all involved in Scouting. Matthew is a member of Troop 777 in Goose Creek, and he and his sister Morgan are both members of Venture Crew 777. Younger brother John is a member of Boy Scout Troop 777, and brothers Patrick and Thomas are both in Cub Scouts. The Scout groups are sponsored by Immaculate Conception Catholic Church.
Matthew Hamlin became a Cub Scout more than 10 years ago. His love of baseball and of Scouting led him to his service project of taking an all-but-abandoned ball field and leading an effort to dig out old dirt, bring in clay for the baselines, an honest-to-goodness pitchers mound, build a dugout and perform other repairs and maintenance to the field.
He coordinated efforts of more than 30 volunteers to do the work, including fellow Scouts and Venture Crew members and family.
Hamlin is a senior on the Bishop England High School baseball team, playing outfield and second and third base.
Several teammates also helped with the nearly 200 hours of work that went into making the baseball field at Summerville Catholic a reality.
Coach Mike Darnell said Hamlin always did everything he asked of him, on the field and in ball games.
Others speaking at Hamlins court of honor included his parish priest, principal Michael Bolchoz of Bishop England High School, chaplain Fr. Jeffrey Kirby of BEHS, Mayor Michael Heitzler of Goose Creek, the Swamp Fox District chairman and other current and former Scout leaders.

W.Va. county smoking ban irks veterans
KEYSER, W.Va. (AP) — A proposed smoking ban in Mineral County starting Oct. 1 is stirring up opposition among veterans.
The News Tribune reports that representatives of American Legion and VFW clubs flocked to a county commissioners' meeting room Wednesday in Keyser to appeal for an exemption for their establishments.
They complained that the smoking ban is an infringement on their personal liberty and threatens the financial viability of their organizations.
During the meeting, Paul McIllwee of the Keyser VFW read the names of Mineral County men who died in service to their country. He says veterans should be allowed to enjoy a smoke at their VFW hall.
County commissioners said they plan to meet with the Board of Health to convey the veterans' concerns.

GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania — A judge has refused to reduce the life sentence for a then-juvenile who was the catalyst in the torture death of a mentally disabled Pennsylvania woman.
Angela Marinucci, who is now 21, was granted a new sentencing hearing Wednesday under a U.S. Supreme Court ruling outlawing mandatory life sentences for juvenile offenders.
Marinucci was 17 when she egged on her boyfriend, then-25-year-old Ricky Smyrnes, and five others to torture 30-year-old Jennifer Daugherty in the dingy Greensburg apartment most of the group shared in February 2010.
The two men who actually killed Daugherty, Smyrnes and Melvin Knight, are on death row for first-degree murder. Marinucci was also convicted of first-degree murder but couldn't face the death penalty because of her age.
The others involved in the Westmoreland County case are serving decades in prison.

But it is still not something to be discussed publicly. When this reporter contacted a different woman he had been told was gay and living openly with her gay husband, she bristled and objected to the call. "Haven't you heard about my marriage?" she asked, denying she was gay.
Being gay in Pakistan "is a social taboo," one gay man said. "Very strong, it's extremely suffocating."
Jaluluddin Ahmed Khan, 27, who describes himself as a "psychotic, sarcastic and socialist blogger from Karachi," blogs regularly about the angst and frustration he believes many Pakistani gay men experience, especially those with traditional parents.
"I came out to them, and told them that I am this way, [but] they keep pestering me about getting married and they did not let me move out of the house, even though I could have," he wrote in December on his blog, Tuzk-e-Jalali. "I don't think I can forgive them, or I will, or I may, I just know that I have anger and hatred against them. And then there is the inevitable feeling of having lost five years of my life fighting with my parents on this one topic. It is a very long period of life, and I felt I was caged, and I want my time back, but alas, it is the greatest of wishes that can not be fulfilled."
Minot has long since revealed her sexuality to her parents and siblings, although she keeps it from most of her extended family. "I come from a conservative family in Peshawar," she said, describing the handful of family members who served in the military and the powerful spy agency, the Inter-Services Intelligence, or ISI. "And I don't think they would be accepting of me."
Her father, she said, knows about her sexuality but chooses not to acknowledge it.
"When I told my mother, I said, 'Mama, I'm gay.' She turned around and said, 'But gay are men. You are a woman.' I said, 'Yeah. I like women.' She said, 'There's nothing wrong with that. That's very good.' So, I was like, 'I cannot go deeper than that.' The topic was closed and we never spoke about it again."
In May, 2005 a gay couple caught having sex in the tribal belt along the Afghan border were publicly lashed.
A few months later, when a 42-year-old man in the same area married an impoverished young man, a tribal council told the couple to leave the area or be killed for breaking tribal "values and ethics."
Pakistan's tribal areas have always been more conservative than its settled areas and have always operated under their own set of customs and laws.
But the country as a whole has also always struggled to balance civil law with religious law. The constitution states that sodomy is illegal, punishable with two to 10 years in prison. But in the late 1980s, President Zia-ul-Haq enshrined conservative Islamic law within the country's civil law. The Hudood Ordinance of 1979 lays down violent punishments for adultery, drinking alcohol and sodomy, which can result in a sentence of being stoned to death.
In a place like Lahore (the second largest city in Pakistan), where Pakistanis can often bring wine to restaurants and where parties often include drugs, those laws seem like they come from a different world.
Even there, though, the local film board briefly banned the popular Bollywood movie "Dostana" because the male protagonists of the film pretend to be gay.
But among the elite, among the Pakistanis who travel to the West, where people are more culturally aware and better educated, the culture loosens.

Here is a statement of my ethics and coverage policies. It is more than most of you want to know, but, in the age of suspicion of the media, I am laying it all out.
I do not own stock in any company that I report on, but I may make investments in mutual funds, over whose portfolio investments I have no direct control.
I don't accept gifts, products or favors from sources or any company I cover. On occasion, I may borrow products in the short term from companies I cover if and only if those products may be returned after I have used them to inform my writing.

This site and our conferences are owned by Revere Digital. Revere has two minority investors: The NBCUniversal News Group, which is owned by Comcast; and the investment firm Windsor Media, owned by former Hollywood executive and Yahoo CEO Terry Semel.
In addition, Pinterest executive Joanne Bradford is an independent board member of Revere, for which she has received a small amount of stock in Revere that vests over a number of years.
My posts have total editorial independence from these investors and also Bradford, even when they touch on products and services these companies produce, compete with, or invest in. The same goes for all content on Re/code and at our conferences. No one in this group has influence on or access to the posts we publish. We will also add a direct link to this disclosure when we write directly about the companies.

Guiding kayaking trips in college was a dream job. This trip to Bahia de Los Angeles on the Sea of Cortez in Mexico was particularly memorable with crystal clear water allowing us to see dolphins, giant manta rays, and millions of colorful fish. My Chacos got to hang out in the cockpit in 105 degree temperatures and were the only pair of footwear I took--couldn't think of a reason to bring anything else.

Letter: Beem exists in an 'alternate universe'
We discover yet another galaxy in Edgar Allen Beem's alternate universe thanks to his latest column. Anthony Kennedy a "conservative activist"? Not lately, dude. Those five "conservative activist" judges just did you and your fellow hater-libs a huge solid. Ed Rendell, Chellie Pingree, Donald Sussman and yes, the Chinese Central Government Inc., can now legally pimp the publishers and editors of the Philadelphia Inquirer and The Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram and expense those payments to minimize their corporations' "fair share" of income taxes owed. Unfortunately, Maine Heritage Policy Center won't have access to the investments from the Chinese Central Government, Hezbollah, George Soros, Iberdrola , etc. They'll have to rely on money from corporations who don't particularly care to see the members of the high school class of 2042 having to learn Mandarin in order to read their diplomas.
Mr. Beem, how about weighing in on the governor's plan to help curb domestic violence ? More Orwellian double-speak?

It's the news that we've all been hoping for, Google Analytics have recently announced their plans to integrate social activity streams within their free analytics package thereby enabling their customers to discover who's sharing, voting and bookmarking their content in the social sphere of the internet from the same platform that tracks website hits.
The information will be collected via 'social stream' and integrated into Google's newly created social hub the platform. Proving that social media measurement is serious business, Google says, it aims to help marketers and publishers "discover off-site engagement, optimize their engagement within each social community, and measure the impact of each social channel and its associated digital investment."
It is still early days yet , but so far Delicious, Digg, Diigo, Gigya, LiveFyre, ReadItLater, Reddit, TypePad, Vkontakte, and of course, Google+, Blogger and Google Groups have all already signed up to the service.
It still remains to be seen how Facebook will respond to these planned proposals. Facebook is the world's biggest social network and, ever since the launch of Google+ is their largest competitor. Facebook has already refused to integrate their 'like' feature with Google search results, instead opting to integrate with smaller search engine 'Bing' and has launched its own analytics platform: Facebook insights.
With or without the integration of Facebook, this platform, which launches next year, will be highly valued by businesses who have implemented social networking into their business models and will no doubt become a major driving force within social media analytics and measurement.Tags:Digg, Facebook Reddit, Google Analytics, social media, social media monitoring

text: Pink Nouveau Nail Lacquer is a medium-dark pink with blue undertones. It's opaque in two coats, and the formula was pretty good–it wasn't too thick or too thin, and it applied evenly and fluidly across the nail. It's not as blue-based, so it reads pinker and lacks that almost lilac-like edge of color. OCC Palare is darker, more fuchsia.MAC Ice Cream Cake is lighter–it's more of a match than this shade. Ms. Perfectly Pink is more fuchsia, a bit darker. Zoya Jolene is a touch lighter. Zoya Lara is pretty close, perhaps a smidgen darker. (10, 10, 9.5, 9, 5, 4; A)

Lehigh News Article
From Plato to Kant, a feast for the mind
Lehigh's inaugural conference in philosophy featured 33 presentations by renowned scholars who discussed topics ranging from Antigone and Aristotle to Descartes and Dewey.
Living in Washington, D.C., just a quarter-mile from the former site of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Nancy Sherman has taken the opportunity to get to know many wounded soldiers returning from combat in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Some of these soldiers, says Sherman, University Professor of Philosophy at Georgetown University, have survived injuries so severe that they tax the imagination of civilians who have never experienced war.
But the stories of these soldiers' recovery, Sherman told a Lehigh audience recently, contain lessons about hope and its rationality, its resilience and its dependence on imagination.
"Hope," she said, "keeps us going. It can be a scaffold or a bootstrap. It is deeply connected to practical agency.
"For returning combat veterans, if you invest hope in them, this can be transformative."
Sherman gave one of two keynote addresses at the "Last Chapter" conference, the inaugural annual
conference in philosophy
organized by Lehigh's
department of philosophy
, which was held Oct. 3-4. Her talk was titled, "The Final Chapters of War: Making Peace after War."
The conference, made possible by a gift from an anonymous donor, featured 33 presentations by philosophers from across the United States and the United Kingdom. Another 16 faculty members from Lehigh's departments of philosophy, history and religion studies and from the philosophy departments at Lafayette, Muhlenberg and Moravian Colleges and DeSales University chaired sessions.
Among the topics discussed were Antigone and Plato's
, Hume and Kant, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, Hegel, Aristotle and Maimonides, Al-Razi, Plato, John Stuart Mill, Hobbes and Bacon, Descartes and Locke, Aristotle's
Nicomachean Ethics
, Anscombe and Confucius, Metaphilosophy and Dewey, and The End of Philosophy and Augustine.
The goal of the conference, said Robin Dillon, department chair and William Wilson Selfridge Professor of Philosophy, was to "make Lehigh more prominent in the world of philosophy and to make philosophy more prominent at Lehigh."
Building a "deliberative fantasy"
In her talk, Sherman told the story of Dan, a West Point Army officer who lost both legs and a hip when he stepped on a land mine while on patrol near Kandahar, Afghanistan.
"Most of Dan's body was gone; it was a mess," said Sherman. "There was not one place you could touch that didn't hurt."
The lack of a right hip made it extremely difficult to attach a prosthetic leg to his body and impossible to keep from sliding out of a chair.
Then Dan heard of Andrei, a young man who suffered similar injuries when he was hit by a train while on vacation in Europe. This man had learned to walk again. Dan invited Andre to come to Walter Reed and talk with him.
"The news of what Andrei had done opened up what philosophers call 'possibilism' for Dan," said Sherman. "His hopes became deliberative, consisting of cognitive resolve and practical agency. He took on a 2.5-year regimen of physical and occupational therapy."
Dan's example, said Sherman, "illustrates the rationality of hope and shows how hope makes salient certain features to knit a landscape together."
It also shows the role imagination plays in hope, she said.
"Dan had built a deliberative fantasy, rehearsing in his head what he would do one day. He avoided idle fears and idle hopes. In this fantasy, he had traded places with Andrei."
Sherman told of another combat veteran who sustained physical wounds and who also suffered psychological trauma when a soldier under his command was killed in a land-mine explosion.
"What bothered this soldier most were not his injuries or the medications he had to take," she said, "but the guilt over losing his troops."
This soldier was buoyed by the hopes that his wife invested in him, and he reciprocated by supporting her educational and career aspirations.
"Both partners have invested in each other's futures, he in her education, she in his recovery."
Looking ahead to next year
The other keynote address at the philosophy department's conference was titled, "Natural and Rational Belief: Kant's Final Words?" It was given by Paul Guyer, the Jonathan Nelson Professor of Humanities and Philosophy at Brown University.
The conference's title was suggested by Greg Reihman, adjunct professor of philosophy and associate vice provost for teaching and learning.
"All of our faculty members are oriented to the history of philosophy," said Dillon. "We liked the idea of a theme that would invite people to examine important texts, and the last chapters of texts sometimes tend to be glossed over. We also liked that the theme lent itself to endings other than those of texts, such as the endings that Nancy Sherman's talk addressed."
Planning for the conference took one year. The papers submitted to the conference were reviewed by Aladdin M. Yaqub and Michael Mendelson, associate professors of philosophy.
The philosophy department plans to make the conference an annual event, with a different theme each year. The philosophy faculty have already begun planning for next year's conference.

Comments about Line Skis Sick Day 110 Skis 2014:
I'm 5'10", 180lbs and a fairly aggressive skier. I like to jump off of things, cruise through the woods and I tend to butter my turns more than carve. I have my skis mounted to factory standard and my boots are set up with a more upright lean for a more neutral stance.Hardpack on these skis is a blast. They're quick edge to edge and they are fast when you point them. Really stable at speed and confidence inspiring when you want to really lean them over.I really enjoyed skiing these in softer snow. They handle like they're on hard pack, making nice long arcs. Had a lot of fun porpoising through bouncy wooded lines.The light weight of these skis makes them great for tight situations where you want to hop turn or pick your skis up quick.Only thing I didn't enjoy was grip on icier terrain, but that could just be the edge tune (or lack of) at the time.Overall a super fun daily driver.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

In Premiere Pro CS5 Essential Training, author Chad Perkins shows not only how to edit video with Premiere Pro, but he also explains how to use video to tell compelling stories. This course covers the Premiere Pro workflow from a high level, providing a background on how projects go from start to finish before diving into basic clip adjustments, such as color correcting scenes for more dramatic impact, applying transitions effectively, and slowing down and speeding up clip playback. The course includes creative techniques, such as making titles and removing a green screen background from a shot. Exercise files are included with the course.
In this movie, we're going to look at a few ways to fix some common audio problems. We're going to start by doing this using effects. If you go to the Effects panel down here, open up Audio Effects. You'll see that we have three categories, 5.1, Stereo and Mono. If we look at our track here in the High Pass sequence, we'll see two little speakers here. If this were a Mono track, there would be one speaker. If it was a 5.1 Surround Soundtrack, there would be a 5.1 here. Since we know this is a stereo track, this is a stereo clip, let's go ahead and open up the Stereo area of Effects.
As you could see here, there are loads of audio effects that we could use to sweeten and adjust our audio. Premiere definitely understands the significance of audio to a quality video. The effects here are really top-notch. I should also point out that if you have third-party VST Filters or audio plug-ins installed, you could also use them here from Premiere. Now, there is a wide range of effects here. There is stuff like Reverb, which adds kind of like a mild echo. So, if you have some voiceover work, you need to give it more space if it sounds too flat and dead.
You could apply some Reverb to that. Everything else from Reverb to crazy effects like Chorus, and even like a Flanger to make you sound like you're under water, but there is also some really great effects here for cleaning up audio such as the De effects, the DeClicker, DeCrackler, DeHummer, DeNoiser. These definitely help clean up if you have clicks, pops, hums, that type of thing. What I'm going to use to fix our current audio situation, unless what we've looked at before is we have this low roll of ocean here, if we play that. (Waves crashing) (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) Now, his voice is higher in pitch than the ocean.
So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to use an effect called Highpass. Highpass allows high pitches to pass through. That's why it's called Highpass. So, what it's going to do is it's going to eliminate low frequencies. So, I'm going to drag-and-drop that on to my audio clip here. Open up Highpass in the Effect Controls panel. If we play this, the results by default are not all that great. (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) It removes too much of the low frequencies.
So, his voice sounds like it's on an AM Radio. Now, that could be what we're looking for. This is a great effect for that. But of course, that's not we're not looking for, in this case. So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to take the cutoff down. I'm going to try to do this while I am playing it back to give you a sense of what this value does. (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) (Male speaker: Plenty of places to ride.) So, could you get a sense of what that was doing when we adjusted the Cutoff parameter? Basically, everything below the Cutoff gets removed. Because it's Highpass, so everything above that Cutoff point passes through, everything below it's cut off.
So, we have a lot of human-speaking tones underneath this current value. What we want to do is I am going to actually click in here and type in 110. So, everything below 110, which is a really deep set of pitches, is going to be cut out and everything above is going to be allowed to pass through. So, if we play this back -- (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) It sounds pretty much the same. But if we click this Bypass switch, we can see the before and the after. So, Bypass basically turns the effect off and then on, as we have it unchecked.
So, I'm going to play this back now and listen to the difference when the effect is played back without Bypass, meaning the effect is on and working, and when I select Bypass and turn the effect off. (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) (Male speaker: Plenty of places to ride.) (Male speaker: Beautiful weather.) (Male speaker: It just doesn't get any better than this.) Now, because you're probably watching this over the Internet, you might not have heard that difference, but there is a very deep low rumble that is removed by this effect. So, if you have situations where you're filming like outside or maybe in a warehouse or something like that, there is a like a deep low rumble.
This is a good way to get rid of that by using the Highpass effect. Conversely, we could also use the Lowpass effect for high-pitched whines. Just like the Highpass effect creates a threshold and then throws away everything beneath a certain threshold, Lowpass throws out everything above a certain threshold and allows low frequencies to pass through. As we'll see, this is great for whines and things like that. I'm going to play this clip that we've looked at previously from the House on Haunted Hill cutaway's clip. This clip, for whatever reason, the way that this was encoded this has a very high-pitched whine in it.
(Male speaker: We're all locked in now.) Really just grating, though hopefully you can hear that, so you could tell how incredibly annoying that is. So, I'm going to apply the Lowpass effect to and just drag-and-drop it to the audio clip there and we open up Lowpass. Let's just give it a preview here. (Male speaker: We're all locked in now.) Okay, that's good, but it's cutting off a little bit too much. Because it's removing everything above this frequency, there are a lot of overtones in the human voice that are just kind of getting lost.
So, I'm actually going to click on this value, take this up to 2800. Then now if I preview this, it's going to sound pretty good. (Male speaker: We're all locked in now.) (Female speaker: But I don't want to stay.) Now, I'm going to do the same thing before where I'm going to click Bypass to turn the effect off and on again. Notice the difference. (Male speaker: We're all locked in now.) (Female speaker: But I don't want to stay.) (Male speaker: I'm sorry, my dear, but it's too late now.) So, again, really irritating without the Lowpass effect. So if you want to get rid of low hums or high whines, you can use these filters to get the job done.
Now, for extra super hard jobs, if you have like some kind of really big audio pop or somebody says a word and they should know when you really just can't edit around it, you can go to Adobe Soundbooth. I'm going to right-click on this audio clip in the High Pass sequence. I'm going to choose Edit in Adobe Soundbooth > Render and Replace. Now, what that does is opens this clip up in Adobe Soundbooth, which is a separate audio application that comes with Adobe Production Premium or the Adobe Master Collection which is -- Adobe Production Premium is Adobe's kind of video suite.
Now, Adobe Soundbooth is a very simple audio editing program. But it really is built for video editors to be able to fix little audio problems, just like the ones we've been having. Let me show you this. This is our sample here. Again, just like Premiere, we hit the Spacebar to start up and start the playback of audio -- (Waves crashing) (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) So, same clip that we're looking at. We're just looking at the waveform here. I know that this first little section here, as you see this flat waveform, almost flat waveform, this is the ocean.
So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to click-and-drag over the ocean noise. Then I'm going to go to Clean Up Audio in the Tasks panel, click Clean Up Audio. One of the brilliant things that Soundbooth does and has a few really magical tricks here-- I'm going to capture the noise print. So, what it's going to do is going to look at this noise, and basically, by selecting only the noise, I have told Soundbooth that this is bad stuff that I don't want. Then what I could do is click on the Noise button. It will go through and it will take this noise out of the entire clip.
Now, sometimes, this works beautifully, as a matter of fact, most of the time it works really, really well. But a lot of times, and I chose this example specifically for this, it's not as great as it might seem, because the frequencies that we want to keep overlap the frequencies of what we want to throw away. But even still, it's going to sound like he is in a cave here. But if I click Preview, and actually, I just realize that by having this audio selection still in play when I did the noise cleanup here, it only cleaned up that little section. So, I'm going to go ahead and hit Cancel here and then click here.
Then let's go ahead and make sure you don't have a selection in which you can get by just clicking anywhere in here. Then click Noise and then we can preview this. (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) (Male speaker: Plenty of places to ride.) So again, we're seeing some of the frequencies that we want taken out, which is not what we want, of course. But even still, it's pretty amazing that the sound of the ocean has just gone. (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) So, what we could do is take this Reduction from Aggressive to the right and take it to the left to be Light.
We could actually do this while we're previewing it too. (Waves crashing) (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) (Male speaker: Plenty of places to ride.) (Male speaker: Beautiful weather.) (Male speaker: It just doesn't get any better than this.) We could also choose the Reduce By amount. So, basically at the top we are choosing what we are getting rid of and then at the bottom, we are talking about how loud the noise reduction is. In this case, it's a pretty tough job. So, I'm not sure if there is anything that's going to be perfect. I might want to take this down to Light and take this down to Light a little bit more and preview this.
(Waves crashing) (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) So, it still sounds a little warbly in the background, but it is reduced quite a bit. So, I guess, I'm going to be happy with this. That's the best we're going to get, so I'm going to go ahead and click OK. Now, if I go back to Premiere through the magic of magicness, and the way that Premiere and Soundbooth work together, Soundbooth created an additional audio file out of the audio file from the video, brought it into the Project panel and swapped it out with our original audio here. So, this is linked to what we are having in Soundbooth.
So, now if we play this back -- (Waves crashing) (Male speaker: Beautiful scenery.) We'll see the same audio clip from Soundbooth. So, any changes that we make in Soundbooth and then save will show up then in Premiere. I should also point out here that if you do have some really hard audio problems, if there is like a pop that you can't get rid of in Premiere or something like that, I recommend checking out the Soundbooth training on Lynda.com, really top-notch. A lot of these things that you'll learn about in Soundbooth can just bail you out of so many problems as far as audio goes in Premiere.

NeNe Leakes in Tears as She Wraps New Normal Season 1! (PHOTOS)
NeNe Leakes may have been introduced to this world as a Real Housewife of Atlanta but since joining the show at its start nearly five years ago, our girl has gone from reality star to Hollywood darling. After landing some bit parts here and there — including an ongoing stint on Glee — NeNe nabbed a role on Ryan Murphy's The New Normal as Rocky, a feisty personal assistant-turned-producer with a sassy personality we just can't get enough of. ;
The freshman sitcom wrapped its first season earlier this week, and NeNe got surprisingly emotional as she was saying goodbye to her co-stars. Since the show has yet to be renewed for a second season (it could go either way at this point), this could have very well been NeNe's final day on set.

PORTAGE, Mich. (DETROIT FREE PRESS)-- A boatful of Michigan fishermen matched wits, technology and brute strength to hook, fight and finally lasso and drag into their 17-foot boat a 58-pound Great Lakes muskellunge last Saturday -- 8 pounds heavier than the previous Michigan record.
What's more, Joseph Seeberger's 59-inch fish -- subdued after breaking two small nets in the first effort to land it -- could be certified as a world record for a muskie caught on such light line, 8-pound test fluorocarbon.
Seeberger, 41, who lives in Portage near Kalamazoo, was fishing last Saturday morning in Antrim County's Lake Bellaire for smallmouth bass with his brother Chuck and friend Jason Orbeck, both of Battle Creek. Despite the hail and rain that began their fishing day, they had caught three fat smallmouths before the muskie, a female, grabbed the 7-inch minnow Joseph Seeberger was using as bait.
"At first, I thought it was another smallie. I told them, 'It's a good one,' " Seeberger said. "Then I said, 'Oh, it's not a smallie.'"
He said the muskie came easily to the boat just five minutes after he hooked it.
"Then she spooked and jumped out of the water and was gone," he said. "The only thing I can compare it to is that scene in 'Jaws' when the shark swims by the boat and comes out of the water."
But the trophy was still at the end of his line.
Off and on over the next two hours, the fight raged with the muskie taking out more line when it wanted and the three men following it around the lake using an electric trolling motor.
Seeberger, knowing he had a potential record on his hook, asked one of his buddies to Google what was the size of a potential record book muskie in Michigan. They found it was about 50 inches, he said, so they marked off 50 inches along the side of the boat. If the fish was shorter than that, Seeberger said he intended to release it.
About 90 minutes into the fight, Seeberger had the fish beside the boat.
"Where the 50 inches ended, the head began," he said, knowing he had a true monster.
As the fish tired, the group was confounded how to land it. From friends in a nearby boat, they borrowed another bass-sized net, like the one they already had in the boat. They decided to put the fish into both nets -- one at its head, the other at its tail.
They lifted. Both nets broke and the record fish was still free.
Amazingly, it didn't break the light line. That when another buddy, Derek Barnes of Battle Creek, who had been videotaping the battle, climbed onto their boat to help. Their first idea was to try to slip life jackets under the muskie as a cradle and then bring her in, but the jackets were too buoyant to push underwater and hope the fish wouldn't take another dive. Almost out of possibilities, they agreed to take a dock line off the boat and lasso the muskie around its head then quickly cinch the loop.
It worked. With the rope around it, all four men reached into the water and wrestled the muskie aboard.
"It looked like a big log coming out of the water when I first saw the fish. I think we all were all just waiting for the line to break at anytime," Barnes said. "Once the fish was in the boat, many high fives, some Holy Cows, and I am sure a swear word or two."
They headed for shore, trailered the boat and drove straight for the local bait shop to get it weighed. A police officer was driving by and they flagged him down, asking for help to reach the Department of Natural Resources, because the fish and its weight had to be certified by a DNR biologist to qualify as a record.
One bystander admiring the fish just happened to have the cell phone number of a DNR biologist. Patrick Hanchin, a DNR fisheries biologist at the Charlevoix Fisheries Research Station and Conservation Officer Steve Speigl confirmed the weight and length of the fish as a new record.
Seeberger's fish breaks the previous state record Great Lakes muskie caught three years ago of Kyle Anderson of Rapid City by about 8 pounds and 3 inches. The fish was caught on Torch Lake, which is part of the same chain of lakes as Lake Bellaire. It also was bigger than the state's record Tiger Muskellunge -- a 53-pound fish caught in the western Upper Peninsula in 1919.
Seeberger said he plans to enter the fish as a possible new world record for 8-pound test with the International Gamefish Association.
"This fish shows that Michigan waters are capable of producing huge fish," said DNR Fisheries Division Chief Jim Dexter. "Great waters coupled with appropriate management strategies can result in even more record fish." Seeberger's fish is one of several record book muskies to come from the same chain of lakes that drains downstream through the Grass River to Clam Lake to Torch Lake and River and into Skegemog and Elk lakes.
The muskie is now at a taxidermy shop in northern Michigan being preserved to mount on Seeberger's wall.

Ever since I tried on the boost energy running shoes, I couldn't wait until Adidas put them into the DRose line of shoes. I have been buying the Rose line since inception and have always loved how the hugged the foot and had exceptional traction but always needed a little more cushioning since I'm a bigger guard (and getting older). Simply put, the Rose 5 Boost is everything I ever wanted in a shoe. Please note that the sizing is different that previous Rose shoes bc the toe box is rounded off more than previous models. The Rose 1-4 all had a more pointy toe box so depending on your foot shape, youd have almost no wiggle room in the toe box. If you sized down half a size it would be too small . W the rose 5 you can size down half a size and still be able to move youer toes around a little. I went with my normal sz 11 and found the length to be perfect with some space to move my toes around. When I went down to a 10.5 I had less space in the toes overall and still some space to spare length wise. I highly recommend trying your normal size and half a size down so you can decide based on your preference. Cushioning is outstanding with full length boost. Somehow Adidas was able to keep that plush bouncy feel wout making the shoe feel unstable. Excellent responsiveness as well as a super smooth transition from heel to toe thanks to full length boost (not targeted like some companies ) Support: The round pads that protrude up the ankle are pretty stiff initially but as you play the warm up and flex just the right amount. The most impressive yet unspoken support structure runs along the sides of the shoe above the midsole. It really keeps my foot from sliding which really need when I cut hard. Traction: This wouldn't be a drose shoe without excellent traction and these do not disappoint. The rubber used is nice and soft and the grab the floor even on slightly dusty floors. Exactly what Id expect from a Drose shoe. I love this shoe and can't wait for more colorways to drop.!! ... read more
MiAdidas rose5. Excellent shoes to play basketball in. Comfortable shoes ever. Performs great on the court. Traction is awesome. nothin bad to say about the shoes. ADvice tho if your feet are wide, you might want up to .5 your reg shoe size. BOOST tech "IS FOR REAL... CHANGES EVERYTHING" TRACTION COMFORT PERFORMANCE 110% ... read more
I bought the black pair and the stripes on the ankles, after about 3 pickup games were already starting to peel/rub off. Overall though, the shoe broke in nicely, fits your foot wonderfully. The JOHN WALL 1 gives you amazing balance, which helped improve my shot blocking, stealing, as well as my speed on the court. ... read more
This shoe broke in fairly quick which was nice. It took me about 2 games to 24 roughly about 50min. The ventilation is great too! As soon as I put them on heads were turning, overall its a great shoe for anyone looking for a Basketball shoe or just to wear around town. ... read more
These shoes felt just as comfortable as my D Rose 4s, and the sizing was spot on the same. These shoes, however, have changed my perception on basketball shoes. I do truly believe with the right shoes you can perform better now. With the D Rose 4s, I was about 2 inches from touching rim. I got my D Rose 5s for Christmas this year and was able to now touch rim, even almost getting my first knuckle over it. Never before have I worn shoes that actually attribute to performance, but these shoes go above and beyond by giving you stability, comfort, and the added benefit of a higher vertical leap. ... read more
Not the greatest ankle support. But for those of you who want a quick, easy, durable and not to mention supportive ankle strap this is it. I've tried some ankle braces before, some where too bulky or too thin without providing support. This strap provides all of the elements that I was looking for in an ankle strap. It is lightweight, not too bulky, supportive and really easy to wear and take off. The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that it is a little overpriced. Paying $60 for a pair sounds a little pricey. I think $20 each for these straps sounds more reasonable. ... read more
After playing in Crazylights, and loving them, for the last couple seasons I wasn't sure if I really wanted to switch shoes. I decided to try out the 5s and I am very impressed! At first I thought the boost was not going to make a difference in energy and play, but it changes everything. I feel very secure in the shoe and never slip. The traction is amazing. My only problem is the ankle supports. They sometimes dig into my ankle when driving and can cause pain. Other than that I am very happy with this shoe. ... read more
Purchased the Black and white pair waiting for the Navy blue and All-star edition to drop the are super comfortable and give great balance they also lock your foot in just right definitely one of the best pair of ball sneaks I've played in in a long time ... read more
I recently purchased the d rose 5's in the red and blue and so far they are amazing. At first i was a little skeptical about the size because I am a 9 but they fit like 9.5's but not to worry after you play and break them in, they fit perfectly. Another note is that they are extremely comfortable with the white cushion on the heel and they are very very breathable. The traction is also amazing and my only concern is that they scuff pretty easily but then again i am a point gaurd -13 years old 8th grade, playing and wearing them everyday to practice/school/games etc. Overall they are a amazing shoe and are the best d rose yet. ... read more
These are the most awesome shoes I've had in a long time. Fit comfort and looks are outstanding. I get compliments on them all the time. You can play all day in these shoes and still feel great. I will be buying more colors. Highly recommended. ... read more
Very good shoe. Much more comfortable than my old Nike's. They would make my feet hurt after a while, which affected my game. To all the non-beleivers out there, Boost actually works. It amazing. Would definitely buy the 6 when it comes out. ... read more
Breathability: 8.5/10 The breathability of this ankle wrap really surprised me. Most ankle braces make my ankle sweat and hot, but with the adiZero construction it made my ankle cooler. And the coolness leading to better performance on the court. Ankle Support: 9.5/10 These ankle brace's ankle support are outstanding. Not just some fabric that you throw together and call a ankle brace, but this brace is built tough. A hard shell on the outside bone of your ankle prevents any hyperextension. I would say this ankle support is more of a preventer that a healing brace. Fit: 8/10 The fit of this ankle wrap, to me, was a little more on the tighter side. I wear a size 10.5 and thought I would get a size M brace, that might be my mistake. But the tightness turned out to my advantage a bit. Material: 8.5/10 The adiZero material is great, one of my all time favorites of adidas shoes. The brace feels like it would stand up to a lot of abuse. However, once worn a lot, it could develop visible fold creases which might not look that attractive. Longevity: 8.5/10 This brace would definitely last me a long time build on it's construction. adidas products have always been a first for me. Hope this review helped some of you! ... read more
When I hurt my ankle playing in the Kobe's, my peers and my coach said that it would be best that I get an ankle brace until I get better. Naturally, I got the ones that D.rose wears because he is my favorite player and these are the ones he wears. But I still had my doubts because I thought they would be uncomfortable, limit my mobility, or take away from my game. And when I played in them, I saw that I was wrong. They were super comfortable, didn't take away from my mobility or my vertical, and kept my ankles protected. I was very satisfied with them, so much that I will still wear them if my ankle is just bothering me. Great ankle braces. At first I wondered why they were priced so high. 60 dollars for both??? But now I understand. I feel like i payed for quality. ... read more
This is awesome. I got it yesterday at an Adidas store and it is perfect size. There is no need to buy a size smaller or bigger. Speedwraps fit the size of your shoes. It really does prevent your ankles from rolling and keep them protected. This is only $30 and is cheap compared to other ankle braces. It is also super light. Best Adidas accessory ever and I seriously recommend it to all of you guys looking for ankle braces. ... read more
I saw a web interview that Derrick Rose did and he spoke about how much that he loved the Adizero Speedwrap Ankle Brace and since I already bought the Adizero shoe, I figured I'd try it out. I had a grade 2 ankle sprain about 5 months ago and haven't been able to explode as well as I could prior to my injury. This ankle brace helped a lot and now I can't imagine playing ball without it ... read more

Classic movies: Lyric Photoplay Society sets film scheduleWritten by Matt Liasse | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Toledoans can once again see "The Three Stooges" on the big screen.
Part of the Lyric Photoplay Society's classic movie series, Moe, Larry and Curly's shenanigans will play at the Maumee Indoor Theater for one day in March.
This is the start of the fifth year for the film series at Maumee Indoor.
Lyric Photoplay Society Chairman Evan J. Chase chose to bring the Stooges back after the response last year.
"Last year we did our first one and we just packed the place," Chase said. "It was very, very popular. So, we're getting another assortment of some of the best Stooges to show on the big screen."
The assortment consists of 1934's "Three Little Pigskins," 1935's "Pardon My Scotch," 1937's "Dizzy Doctors" and 1941's "An Ache In Every Stake."
The Lyric Photo Society specializes in "presenting classic movies in the best possible projection and on a big theater screen," Chase said. The Maumee Indoor was perfect, Chase said, because of its state-of-the-art digital projection.
"It's probably the best in the area, especially when you run classic movies," Chase said.
Chase chooses all of the films in the series. Chase, a baby boomer, fell in love with classic movies when his aunt and uncle would take him to the Redford Theatre in Detroit, an "ornate" theater with a pipe organ.
"That kind of spurred me on to want to bring that to Toledo," Chase said. "The old movies just reflect a much better time in society … they're time capsules; everything about them is fun."
Chase likes to pick movies that people may not be familiar with, in a "diversified approach" with genres. For a musical, he chose "Funny Face," starring Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire. "King Kong" will also be showing in April.
"It's the only 'King Kong' that was ever really true to the feel of the story," Chase said. "The special effects were so ahead of their time."
Chase said years ago the series only attracted an older crowd. Nowadays, he said, there are a lot of younger people interested.
"There's a lot of hard-core classic movie fans out there, and there's a lot of younger ones too," Chase said.

Below is the poem entitled Once I was Prince - Part One which was written by poet
Wignesan. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
T Wignesan
for Granny Letchumi (b. fin 19th C. - d. 1978)
Once i was a prince in your highbeamed palm-thatched house
timber and stone
of hardened mud and cold green shiny cement
in your village ribbed with drying splintering palmleaf fences
buttressed by ferns
palmyra jackfruit mango trees standing solitary sentinel in compound corners
then just for a month
i was a prince in your eyes
i hazarded the Bay of Bengal on a lolling steamer
and watched in unbelief naked children dive for coins in the Nagapattinam offshore anchorage
just to be with you
still a teeny dreamy youth
and there you were
afraid that your village ways might irk me
make me want to go back before time
the day i arrived a double murder in the island
a day or two earlier another
vendetta vengeance wreaked in blood for slights of caste contraventions
other threats other life-taking threats for mere unintended insults innuendoes injuries
to the state of one's birth
to the validity of one's finance
one's moral upstandingness
one's looks
one's genealogy
a longdrawnout court case for the plucking of a ripe mango from an overhanging branch in the neighbour's compound
sitting squat on your two firm broiled scarred feet
your coarse borderless demure saree stretched to its apparent tatters
your stalwart all-bearing sturdiness masked in that humble crouching posture
your rough-rolled cheroot smouldering on the edge of the kitchen-patio cemented mudfloor
and rolling off the corner of the wallbacked seat from where you listened to the swish swish of my coming down the fine sand-filled path rising swiftly furtively only to prepare the ceremonial washing of my feet hands face with the natural coolness from your own ancestral well the chembu as you reverently tilted it giving off just that much of thrashing water into my upturned cupped hands
your meloncholy dreamy gaze riveted on my face my hands my hair my feet recalling perhaps the husband you moaned and whom I had never seen not even in a word-picture
your eyes those bee's full-trusting warm honey-coloured ensconced within sharply falling epicanthic folds watching without imposing but who knows how nostalgically
your fear of touching me with those toil-knotted fingers lest I recoil worn yet tender frail still strong from serving two husbands over half a century lest I inadvertently even make a gesture that might make you feel unlike someone of your highborn bridal glory
(Continued in Part Two)
