Kenny Chesney is lining up television appearances in support of his new album, Life On A Rock, out April 30. The first show he wanted to line up was Late Night With Jimmy Fallon as he already had a plan in mind. Besides performing "Pirate Flag," he also wanted to play "Spread The Love" (the song he co-wrote with the Wailers Band), with Jimmy Fallon's progressive band The Roots. He'll be on the show April 30.
"What ?uestlove and his guys do is beyond what most people would even begin to think of," Kenny said. "They push all music beyond… and you can feel them getting under a song and really lifting it up. When Fam asked me if I'd like to help finish this song they had, I was, like, 'Sure…' and intimidated all at once. They're the Wailers, you know?
"I wasn't sure exactly, but I was watching the news – and it was all so negative," Kenny continued. "I figured we need to counter that somehow. So we got on the phone and talked it out, figured out what we wanted the song to say. Now that it's done, I wanna take it to the world… But I wanna do it with people who musically can bring that higher sense of being to the song. Which is everything the Roots do, no matter who they're working with."
Kenny is eager to get his new music into the hands of his fans. The album is a collection of some of his most personal songs to date. He debuted "Something I Missed" over the weekend while headlining the Tortuga Music Festival.
"I wrote most of these without a guitar," he said. "Not even thinking anyone would ever hear them. They were written for the sake of the song, not losing the moment and remembering things that should be really important, but get lost in the rush of what we do. 'Something I Missed' is absolutely about that, and I loved playing it for people."
Kenny's No Shoes Nation Tour continues this weekend with a two-night stand in Las Vegas. GAC is the official media sponsor of Kenny's No Shoes Nation Tour. Check out photos, videos and more from the tour in our No Shoes Nation Tour section!

Curtain coming down on former Zota Palm City Cinema building
PALM CITY — The curtain will soon come down in a big way at the former Zota Palm City Cinema building in Palm City's Village Center shopping center, which has been closed since 2007.
County growth planners and representatives of Regency Centers, which owns the shopping center at the corner of Martin Downs Boulevard and High Meadows Avenue, met Thursday to discuss demolishing the cinema as well as tearing down the center's Burger King restaurant to make way for a new bank building.
Plans currently call for reconfiguring the plaza's northeast corner to build a 4,800-square-foot Chase bank building and additional parking.
The Burger King just south of the proposed new bank site will be removed to allow safer access to the shopping center from High Meadows Avenue, said Harry King, county principal planner.
When the theater screened its last show on April 12, 2007, Zota Theater officials said the four small-screen cinema was undersized and outdated even by then current standards within the industry.
Additionally, instead of a high-visibility location at Village Center, the theater was tucked into an alcove behind the shopping center's front line of stores and shops.
"Because it's tucked in the back, there is really no retail value for the building," said Regency Centers senior project manager Christopher Ruen.
Once plans are finalized and accepted, the building will be demolished, leaving in its footprint a pedestrian walkway and additional parking.
In total, nearly 13,000 square feet of floor space will be eliminated from the shopping center with the removal of both buildings, county records show.
Ruen said the company anticipates responding to planners' comments within the next 30 days but said the project was too early in the planning process to estimate a construction time line.
Once revisions to the final site plan are accepted by county staff, the plans will be presented to the Martin County Board of County Commissioners for final approval, King said.

Do marriage vows seem to mean as much today as they used to? If you've heard anything about the increase in divorce rates, you may wonder.
Bill & Glad are ignoring the trends. More than ever the vows they made 50 years ago are being tested. In sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, the promise they are keeping is a true example of what love is.

They sit there innocuously--a couple skeins of yarn, a
crochet hook, and a yarn needle. Will they become something useful, something
unusual, something cute, or something creepy? All they need is the perfect
pattern and a dash of inspiration.
Creepy Never Looked
So Cute
There's something magical about taking a piece of string and
one simple hook and creating something that has a personality. Sometimes, this
means making a sweater or hat with just the right combination of stitch pattern
and yarn that evokes a certain feel. For this book, however, I took it a step
further. I wanted to create projects that made me want to hug them as I
finished them. I realized that if I made a whole book of fuzzy ducklings,
puppies, and babies I would probably die of cuteness overload, so I opted to
steer clear of the mainstream. Instead, I set my sights on a world of evil
robots, angry plants, and fanged bunnies. (They need hugs, too!)
Inside you'll find a menagerie of amigurumi softies, critter-themed accessories, and unusual gifts
for creature-lovers of all ages.
The next time you look at a skein of yarn, I hope that you
see the monster trapped inside, waiting for you to let it out.
--Brenda K. B. Anderson
I am in love with the Sasquatch Slippers and Mittens. This
slipper and mitten combo is the perfect combination of scary and huggable. And
best of all, the pattern is sized for babies, toddlers, children, women, and
men. That means I am making a pair for niece and a pair for myself.
What magical and creepy creation will transform your skeins
of yarn? Pre-order Beastly Crochet: 23
Critters to Wear and Love today and find inspiration and the perfect
patterns for your yarn.
Best wishes,
P.S. Do you prefer cute or creepy crochet?
I prefere cute and cuddly...but the occasional creepy's OK
we need more creepy, I have lots of cute and cuddly and the Grandkids really like Creepy!

Coopershill House Irish Venison loin with pumpkin puree and a black pudding filo cigar
A recipe prepared by Derry Clarke of L'Ecrivain for the Irish Food Writers Guild Awards 2011
Serves 4
4 x 150g (5oz) venison loins, trimmed
2 tbsp olive oil, plus extra to garnish
knob of butter
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
450g (1lb) pumpkin, peeled, seeded and diced
85ml (3fl oz) cream
50ml (2fl oz) chicken or vegetable stock
1 sheet filo pastry, thawed if frozen
75g (3oz) piece black pudding
25g (1oz) melted butter
sea salt and freshly ground white pepper
apple purée, candied pecan nuts and microcress sprigs, to garnish (optional)
poached pear quarters, to serve (optional)
To make the pumpkin purée:
Heat the butter in a heavy-based pan. Sauté the onion and garlic until softened but not coloured. Stir in the pumpkin flesh and then pour in the cream and stock. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 6-8 minutes or until completely tender.
Remove from the heat and transfer the pumpkin to a liquidizer with a slotted spoon. Blitz to a thick purée using a little of the cooking liquid if necessary. Season to taste, then pass through a sieve for a really smooth finish. This can be left to cool and stored in the fridge until needed.
To cook the venison:
Preheat the oven to 180C (350F), Gas mark 4.
Season the venison loins. Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof frying pan and seal the loins for 3-4 minutes before transferring them to the oven. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for rare, 7-8 minutes for medium or 10-12 minutes for well done.
Set the venison aside in a warm place to rest.
Meanwhile, prepare the black pudding cigars:
Cut the filo pastry into 4 x 7.5cm (3in) squares. Strip the casing from the black pudding and roll the pudding into four cigar shapes that will fit neatly on the pastry. Brush with melted butter and then roll up to enclose the filling, trimming down any excess as necessary. Arrange on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 5 minutes or until crisp and golden brown.
To serve:
Carve each rested venison loin into three pieces and arrange on serving plates to one side, then top each one with a black pudding cigar. Decorate each plate with a couple of spoonfuls of the warm pumpkin purée. Add a small dollop of apple purée, if using, along with a couple of broken up candied pecan nuts. Add a poached pear to each one and scatter over the microcress sprigs. Finish each plate with a light drizzle of olive oil to serve.

Palmyra, Ind crop farmer Robert Jones discusses the Precision Planter technology used to control the pressure of the planter on the soil, and the rate at which seeds are dropped. Sensors on the wheels send information to Precision Planter's Delta Force hydraulic system, which increases, or descreases the pressure, keeping the planter at the optimum depth for the given soil conditions, making minute adjustments by the inches. 'If you were to stop and manually adjust it, it may take you 45 minutes,' Jones said. Dec. 27, 2013 / Alton Strupp/The Courier-Journal
George Bercaw with Premier Crop Insurance discusses how the technology used by The Climate Corporation allows them to better insure farmers, while aiding them throughout the year to facilitate the highest yields using the latest technology. Nov. 22, 2013 / Alton Strupp/The Courier-Journal
On a rainy late November morning, farmer Robert Jones flipped open his iPad, and in seconds, he knew how much rain had sprinkled over newly harvested corn fields the night before.
A bright green rectangle identified as the familys Fredericksburg field had received .11 of an inch. Eight miles away, at Byrnesville, just .03 had fallen. Jones flipped a beefy index finger down the screen, seeing other fields and their numbers .04, .06 and .10 of an inch.
In the coming weeks as he and his brother,Mark Jones, prepare for the 2014 season, theyll receive a blizzard of data from a San Francisco technology company working to transform farming and crop insurance by digitally harnessing vast amounts of detail on local weather, soil conditions, and yield histories on individual fields.
The data will help Jones Farms decide when to plant, how densely to sow seed, how much nitrogen to fertilize with and when to spray for pests to boost the annual harvest.
The Joneses and a few large Kentucky farmers who have signed on with The Climate Corp. describe the arrival of Big Data as a common-sense tool that helps them farm smarter and minimize the risks posed by devastating shifts in weather.
Robert Jones, who lives in Palmyra, Ind., said hes never been one to shy from trying something new. My father always told me: Never be the first. For damn sure, dont be the last.
The Joneses are second generation farmers who tend 5,000 acres of corn and a bit of wheat with their sons in Harrison and Washington counties. They began buying weather insurance four years ago from The Climate Corp., a company that boasts of creating policies individualized for corn, wheat and soybean farmers, based in part onprocessing 50 terabytes of weather information daily using records on crops grown on 29 million fields across the country, combined with reams of data on precipitation and soil.
Though the family had bought federal crop insurance for decades, and still do, they felt the need for more protection after going all in on planting corn each year, rather than rotating crops, Jones said.
We felt naked in our risk management, he said.
Climate Corp. runs 10 trillion data points of weather conditions, soil and crop data to write its policies on each field, said George Bercaw, a crop insurance consultant with Climate.
Farmers are pulled in so many directions. They have to be a part-time agronomist, part-time weather forecaster, part-time mechanic, part-time chemist. Were trying to give them sound information so they be more focused on producing a crop, Bercaw said.
The Joneses said their experience with Climate insurance led them to try its new Big Data product, which includes high-resolution satellite imagery of each field to track conditions on the ground and the health of the crop through the growing season. The cost: $15 an acre or $75,000. But Jones estimated they could average $104 more per acre or $500,000 in increased profits overall, if it works as advertised.
Farmers traditionally have kept records on rainfall amounts, planting dates, the seed varieties they sowed and nutrients used each season to help plan for the next year. That meant pretty generalized assumptions there was more of a guessing game about how make improvements, said Chris Jones, 29, Roberts son and a junior partner in the business.
Payneville, Ky. farmer Derrick Pike also has purchased Climates insurance and its new software for his familys 2,000-acre corn and soybean business in Meade and Breckinridge counties because it seemed like it would be a good fit for us.
He added: Its going to give us detail on the most opportune time to be in the fields to start planting. I think its going to be a big help to us.
The use of data to help producers decide what to plant and how to deploy their manpower and equipment is only going to increase, predicted John Fulton, an Auburn University associate professor of biosystems engineering and an authority on precision agriculture technologies.
Commodities prices are going level off, so that means farmers are going to look for ways to maintain profitability, Fulton said in a phone interview.
Climate Corp., which was bought by agribusiness giant Monsanto this fall for nearly $1 billion, isnt the only company getting into the data business in agriculture, Fulton said, because many large seed, tractor and fertilizer manufacturers also recognize that they can offer data with their products to help producers boost profits.
If youre going to stay in this business that level of information is going to become more important as we go forward, Fulton said.

Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 115 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Youngmoney112 Its great I'm a 14 year old basketball player, and i have to say this product is great the only con is that don't a white sleeve. The other wont have a higher chance of getting dirty unless you are responsible like me December 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by edhalfcourt awesome So amazing . Comfortable and stylish.will buy more . October 18, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Eric Frisco Overall good I bought this for football not basketball as intended, however needed a compression sleeve for my arm as an added protection while playing QB. It works great and looks great as well. The compression is tight but could be a tad bit tighter. Stays on my arm well. I am muscular but not huge. I will use this for all kinds of stuff from sun protection to sports. Like that it came with two. September 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by rex3333 Good stuff. So I'm basically one of those losers who don't buy things for their intended purposes. I bought it to use as a sunblock because I hate sunscreen and I liked the way it looks, and it works perfectly and I suppose I'm very satisfied with the product. It doesn't say anywhere that it comes in a pair but it does and I was relieved when I received it because I only realized it doesn't say anywhere that it comes in pairs after I ordered it. Does a really good job of keeping my arms cool. It does an even better job once it gets wet from either sweat or lightly spraying it with some water. September 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by penny Very comfortable Nice design, great air flow, comfortable, stays in place, no roll down September 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JK Saved my elbows I bought this arm sleeve set to try and protect my arms during obstacle course races/mud runs. It's often too warm to wear long sleeves in these races, but leaving so much skin exposed, particularly at the elbows, tends to cause so many scrapes and cuts. I wore these for the first time during an 11 mile race and came out with my arms unscathed for the first time ever, especially considering that there was army crawling through mud and over rocky ground, navigating steep hills and narrow paths between trees, climbing walls, and navigating barbed wire. I am extraordinarily happy with this purchase! September 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by D This works goods This product works really good with sweat and this Florida sun. It's get to about 100 degrees and it keeps the sweat off really good September 2, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Christie Loves the material but.. I loved the material but the claim to one size fits all does not apply to females with smaller arms. I returned them and will try to order junior sizes on line. September 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Skier8341 Great for those long workouts. These sleeves work well for those long workouts. They fit well but get snug if your biceps are over 16 inches. August 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JonDQB7 I can Throw a Tight Spiral! Yes I use a shooter sleeve for football! It is amazing! I can throw a tight spiral with it on August 9, 2014

Lee trumpets new Tea Party Caucus all 3 of them
Washington • The first tea party activists met at dusk in Boston Harbor and launched a movement that led to the American Revolutionary War.
Nearly 238 years later, three Republican U.S. senators who consider themselves compatriots to that effort held court Thursday inside a massive Senate Office Building for their inaugural Senate Tea Party Caucus meeting.
The caucus roster currently lists three members: Utah's Mike Lee, Kentucky's Rand Paul and South Carolina's Jim DeMint. But the trio maintains the tea party movement already has been a success in spurring a revolutionary turn in government.
"I went to my first State of the Union the other day and guess who is now against earmarks?" Paul asked a few dozen supporters who came to cheer on the new caucus. "The president of the United States has been co-opted by the tea party."
Lee, whom an audience member asked to sign her copy of the U.S. Constitution, stressed that the caucus would not speak for the tea party movement because that grass-roots uprising is organic, not controlled by elected officials. But he said the caucus serves an important role in fighting for causes Americans want, similar to what colonists fought for in 1773.
"They showed up," Lee said, "to protest against a large distant national government that was taxing the people too much."
The freshman Utah senator also quoted from this week's State of the Union speech, noting that President Barack Obama said Americans live within their means and their government should, too a point Lee says the tea party has pushed.
"There is a difference," Lee said. "We mean it; he doesn't."
DeMint, whose political action committee proved vital in helping Lee and Paul win office, said the senators understand that they wouldn't be in Congress if not for tea party support. DeMint added that he was grateful for some assistance in cutting government spending.
"Thank you for sending me some help," DeMint said.
But the first meeting of the official tea party caucus didn't go without a hiccup. After a half-hour delay and another 30 minutes of speeches, DeMint was reminded that the group hadn't yet said the Pledge of Allegiance.
Then again, America's first tea party activists didn't do that, either.

No less trashy and untalented.
I understand she's only a reality "star" with no real discernible talent. But yet, a nice comment every now and then wouldn't hurt. And she does look alot better. So kudos to you snooki!
Nice jugs. Would bang, would *not* date.
Nice try Rosanne, now where's Snooki?
You can take the fat out of a whore but you can't take the whore out of fat
I always thought snookie was hot, but I am so proud of her to worry enough about her health and to look so much more gorgeous, she is going places and i think she should start to due auditions for movie roles she has a wonderful personality and deserves a shot at a great film and allow much more people to see the good's she posesis , snookie straight truth your a star and you should go for it all your hot on the fryin pan now so cash it in and you will be set and on fire for a long time to come your simply gogeous and hey if you ever get to philadelphia please allow me to take you to dinner . written from Thomas Barasso
That's not even an Ewok, much less snooki.
What exactly is she growling at in that first picture? And is that fur growing on her hand? She must be on Sheen's "tiger blood" diet.
photographer:" Give me sex, seduce me, make love to the camera….or you know, look like a walrus in heat, that works too".
Say what you will, but her breasts look supremely motorboatable right there.
2.5 weeks ago at wrestlemania she was still the same fatass she was before, you sayin all this happened in 2.5 weeks? i call bullshit
she could lose another 25 lbs if she got rid of the orange.
Hmm…yup, still gross.
Ah, now I know what that power blip was the other day. The nuclear power plant being taxed by the liposuction machine needed to pull all that out.
Nah, I think it was the electricity needed to power enough photoshopping to make everyone on plenty of fish look good.
I don't care how much weight she lost she still looks like a midget ewok.
Why the hell is she posing exactly the same in every single picture?
She was more fuckable FAT.
/stupid white bitch!!!

This week featured another series of poor economic reports in the U.S., and more charges and countercharges by President Barack Obama and presumptive Republican candidate Mitt Romney. One story that barely surfaced in the mainstream media, given the attention to the economy and the campaigns, was about an attempt led by Illinois Republican Senator Mark Kirk to have the State Department quantify the number of "original Palestinian refugees" who are currently being assisted by the U.N. Relief and Works Agency. Kirk's informational request, submitted as an amendment to a piece of legislation that passed the Senate Appropriations Committee, asks the State Department to make a report to Congress within one year estimating "how many people served by this U.N. agency in the last year actually lived in Palestine from 1946-1948 and were displaced by the 1948 conflict."
The reaction to the Kirk amendment was swift and furious. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and other State Department officials, Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy, the PLO, and the Jordanian government all got into the act, decrying the approach, and suggesting that Kirk was really working to cut American funding to UNRWA. The PLO went so far as to threaten "serious repercussions" for America if Kirk's amendment passed.
In fact, while the U.S. provides about one quarter of the annual UNRWA budget (more than $250 million per year) and has provided support totaling more than $4 billion since the agency was created, nothing in Kirk's amendment related to funding the organization. However, the likelihood that a report on the number of surviving original refugees, if one were forthcoming, might prove highly embarrassing to UNRWA and the State Department, and could lead to an attempt to cut aid in the future, especially when the budget is very tight.
During the 1948 War of Independence, a significant number of Arabs left the area that became the new State of Israel, which gained recognition by other nations as a new country and was admitted to the U.N. Various estimates put the number who left at between 600,000 and 750,000. The great majority moved but a few miles away to neighboring Arab lands. Many left of their own volition, to avoid a war zone, or were encouraged to do so by the invading Arab armies in 1948 after the British gave up control of Palestine. Some were driven out during the fighting. A somewhat larger number of Jews from Arab countries, variously estimated at 800,000 to 1 million, were forced or pressured to leave Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya and other countries. They moved mainly to Israel, and to a lesser extent, to France and other countries. To some extent, the war and its aftermath resulted in a large population exchange.
While the U.N. has a single agency, the U.N. Refugee Agency (UNHCR), to deal with all other refugee populations in the world, UNRWA serves only one refugee population, the Palestinians. There is also another unique factor associated with UNRWA. While other refugee populations always decline in numbers over time as original refugees are resettled or pass away, UNRWA counts the descendants of the original refugees, as well as original refugees themselves, when it tallies the Palestinian refugee population. As a result, UNRWA's number of listed refugees has climbed steadily since the organization was created by the U.N. in 1949, and now counts approximately 5 million Palestinians as refugees, with about 1.3 million of them living in 59 camps in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank and Gaza. UNRWA is the largest agency of the United Nations, employing as many as 30,000 people (most of them as teachers), and more than 99% of them are Palestinian.
When the Kirk proposal surfaced, several newspaper stories estimated that if the State Department disclosed the estimate of original refugees currently served by UNRWA, the number might be around 30,000. In other words, less than 1% of the number designated by UNRWA as refugees are original refugees, and the rest are descendants — children, grandchildren or great-grandchildren, as well as some additional refugees from the 1967 war.
More than any other issue, the intractability of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is due to the status of refugees. The Palestinians have demanded a complete right of return to Israel for all refugees and their descendants. Hence the demand is for a right of return for the more than 99% of the so-called refugee population (nearly all of the 5 million) — who are not refugees from Israel — to a place where they never lived. This ability to overwhelm Israel with Palestinians, under the guise of their being refugees, has been an issue on which no Palestinian leader has ever shown a willingness to compromise. To give up on the right of return would be seen as acceptance of Israel. Upholding the right of return is the ultimate denial of Israel's right to exist.
Surely, U.S. presidents and State Department officials are aware of the uniqueness of the Palestinians' refugee claims, and UNRWA's treatment of the issue. But just as U.S. policy sometimes seems to deny Jerusalem's existence (certainly within Israel), it has also withheld criticism of UNRWA and the grossly inflated refugee numbers. Instead, U.S. officials simply state that refugees are a final-status issue in peace talks (like Jerusalem). In other words, the U.S. takes no position on the matter.
The Kirk language threatens to reveal that the emperor of State Department diplomacy has no clothes. Vermont Democratic Senator Leahy implied that Kirk's language was a ploy to help Israel, not the U.S. To use M.J. Rosenberg's language, Leahy was accusing Kirk of being an "Israel firster," of not serving America's interests. Leahy, never a fan of Israel, was a good choice to carry water for the State Department forces who just want to let sleeping dogs lie, and never raise any new issues, that God forbid, might appear to put the U.S. on Israel's side on the refugee issue.
If this administration and the State Department want to achieve peace between Israel and the Palestinians, as they always claim they do, then acceding to a grossly fabricated refugee number will not serve that purpose; that only ensures the refugee issue will remain irreconcilable. The UNRWA definition of refugees applied to other refugee populations would lead to absurd numbers: 150 million or more refugees from the India-Pakistan war of the late 1940s, perhaps 10 times the number of original refugees, most of whom are of course no longer alive. The State Department seems to fear transparency when it comes to the real Palestinian refugee number. Thanks to Mark Kirk and other senators, the UNRWA make-believe world of refugees may finally be exposed.

And Obama's first name begins with a "B", and he belongs to the Democrat "P"arty. Coincidence?
I noticed that he is wearing a cap that says Maui. I'm sure this BigPig was there to look for the birth certificate.
I thought BP stood for Biohazard Provocateur?
I know there are some learned dissertations on our innate propensity to recognise patterns – and this can lead us astray. But I'm not going to bother tracking them down for this one.
Dont be too harsh on the guy Adelaidey i suggest he did not write what is said as it is obvious (well to me anyway) that just by looking at him he could not string two words together let alone spell them correctly.
He has probably already drunk the carton of Jack Daniel cans he was given for carrying the sign around.
he could not string two words together let alone spell them correctly.
In which case I expect he'll be posting here as a denier any day. (Sorry Crakar, but sometimes its just too easy.)
He has probably already drunk the carton of Jack Daniel cans
Oh, well, *hell* . . . then I *know* he's ready to post for the denier side.
(Can you really get JD in cans?)
The key to comedy is timing, your timing today is impeccable.
You can get them here in Australia, as a matter of fact im drinking one right now.
as a matter of fact im drinking one right now.
No doubt numerous posts will follow.
(I'm cracking myself up; forgive me.)
Drinking JD out of a can is what you do if you are a bogan but have a job. True bogans drink Woodies – but rich bogans drink JD.
You caught me,
I was not really drinking one but i thought it would be a funny thing to say at the time. If you must know i was drinking Stella Artois (yes i know) but its not a bad drop for a Euro beer and better than anything South Australia has ever produced anyway.
I dont drink JD cans as i cant afford them and not because i am a poor bogan as Mandas has stated (though some may beg to differ)but due to the legacy of a failed policy by our now sacked PM.
If i was to drink Wisky it would be Irish or Scotch. If i was rich enough it would be nothing less than single malt.
Beer? South Australia? Cooper's is the way to go.
They've got a couple of lager / clear beers in the same price range as Stella – and they're heaps better
Ok I admit it.
I had to Google "bogan", which, I imagine, makes me one.
I reserve the right to substitute the term for "sheep shagger" as circumstance dictates. Be warned, all.
Sparkling is OK but you need to be careful, i had a couple too many at a friends place and could not find the door when it was time to go home (5.8% alc).
Pale ale is a bit average if you have to roll a beer before you drink it then it cant be safe to drink.
Sheep shagger has a higher community standing than Bogan, thats not to say a Bogan cannot be a sheep shagger but the sheep they shag are made of plastic. All this reminds me of a joke which i dare not share with you here as some my find it a tad offensive.
People forget that pale ale was originally drunk diluted with water. They've modified the recipe a bit but it still commands a bit of respect. I don't drink beer nowadays, but I do like Cooper's Stout occasionally – streets ahead of Guinness.
I'm going to assume that adelady is from Adelaide. Freaky how you can have so many people from the same small town (yes, it is a small town) all congregating in the same place.
Pale has always been a pale imitation of sparkling – but of course only the hard core drink sparkling; pale is the mass produced version for the masses. But god help me for actually agreeing with something crakar has said – SA has never produced a decent beer, with the minor exception of coopers dark, which is okay i guess. But give me a decent squires any day.
Ah. Stella, or fighting lager as it's sometimes known in the UK. More expensive ('cause it's stronger) and tastier than other lagers (particularly the weak p!ss that the Aussies export to us) but can also lead to severe loss of a sense of humour and objectivity which can then quickly lead to loss of teeth.
Me? I betray my West Country roots by retaining cider (scrumpy if I can get it) as my tipple of choice.
Just in case any Aussies are offended by my characterisation of their amber liquid I'll leave you with a joke: Q: What does American beer have in common with sex in a canoe? A: They're both f***ing close to water.
Back to patterns-where-there-are-no-patterns. This is hilarious.
And chris, I've heard Aussies make that same joke about American beer.
Mandas post 16,
I made that assumption in post 6 (call it a stab in the dark) and yes it is a little weird.
I will go first, i live in a little town which is sometimes known as "Bills Ville" those that know their wine regions well should be able to figure it out.
By the way i have been advised that by spelling me name this way i am honouring a group of people i resemble most.
PS Happy birthday Skip and a belated happy birthday to Coby (sorry i forgot it was Canada's birthday a few days ago)
This gets even scarier. I know my wine regions very well, living as I do in a town named after the second Governor on the edge of the very same wine region where you live.
But I assumed adelady was female – hence the name.
Yes I'm female. And yet another Bills Ville turns out to neighbour a wine district. (Though I s'pose neighbouring a wine district is par for the course in SA until you go too far west or north.)
Hang on, I missed one earlier.
Good grief you lot *are* around here. Heavens to betsy!
Still, Adelaide is not a small town. Heard a quote from a brit writer yonks ago – Adelaide is a city of a million people that pretends to be 20,000.
Jeez Mandas, a "town named after the second Governor" once you figure out what Bills Ville really means you will realise we are practically neighbours in fact we have probably walked passed each other in the street and have not known it….now thats what i call connecting the dots.
All we need to do now is figure out where Adelady comes from, any hints?
SPPI have updated their website so i will post something from there as a way get us out of this awkward situation.
My OH grew up near the governor-name-town and wasted a lot of ill-spent youthful hoon hours driving around the dusty backroads including to Bills Ville.
I'm much more typical of suburbanites born in the 40s – most of my rellies were country people and as a little tacker my family was farming down on the Fleurieu Peninsula. Now? Dunno, quite like the lady of mystery tag.
Yeah I worked out what 'Bills Ville' was straight away – that's why I suggested I was on the edge of the same wine region where you live – and incidently where I spend a lot of time buying and consuming the local product.
If Adelady grew up NEAR my 'hood (lol) and spent time driving around as a hoon – I could be cruel and suggest she is an elizabethan bogan.
Heavens forbid she comes from Lizbiff, i like the lady of mystery tag better. Lets keep at that shall we?
fact still remains that 'obama was born in kenya'…dont care who ruled by then….#proud to be african….PROUD TO BE KENYAN!!!
Fact still remains Obama is as American as any of the rest of you.

Mathematical Creativity and Giftedness (MCG) is an exciting topic that was overlooked in school education and in the educational research for a long time. The International Group for MCG brings together mathematics educators, mathematicians, researchers, and others who are who are inspired to nurture and support the development of mathematical creativity and the realization of mathematical promise and mathematical giftedness.
MCG (International Group for Mathematical Creativity and Giftedness) is affiliated with ICMI (the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction)
see details at: http://www.mathunion.org/icmi/icmi/affiliate-organizations/study-groups/
The purpose of the group is to bring together mathematics educators, mathematicians, researchers, and others who are interested in nurturing and supporting the development of mathematical creativity and the realization of mathematical promise and mathematical giftedness, promoting the improvement of teaching and learning mathematics, and widening students' abilities to apply mathematical knowledge in innovative and creative ways. The work of the Group will concentrate on distinct but interrelated domains such as:
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE MATHEMATICAL GIFTEDNESS AND CREATIVITY (MCG) – 9th EDITION will be held in Romania...
the 39th PME Conference is on July 13-18th in Hobart, Australia http://www.pme39.com (http://www.pme39.com/)
The ICME13 will be in Hamburg, Germany, July 24-31, 2016 with three Topic Study Groups...
The group history started in 1999 when Hartwig Meissner organized an International Conference on Creativity and Mathematics Education in Muenster, Germany. About 80 participants from more than 20 countries participated. In 2002 Agnis Andzans organized our next conference on Creativity in Mathematics Education and the Education of Gifted Students in Riga, Latvia. About 40 experts from 15 countries discussed the role of creativity and the role of competitions on future developments in mathematics education.

The Message of Ezekiel
by Christopher J H Wright
in the Bible Speaks Today Old Testament series, edited by Alec Motyer
There are more and more books, web sites, and other resources to help followers of Christ engage with contemporary culture. There are many Biblical commentaries and expositions. But there are not many Biblical resources that help us to connect the Bible directly with our times.
One book that is very helpful in this area is 'The Message of Ezekiel' by Christopher J H Wright. This is part of the 'Bible Speaks Today' Old Testament series, general editor Alec Motyer.
Ezekiel ministered to the Jewish captives who had been deported to Babylon. Before the fall of Jerusalem, they were still confident that 'God is on our side' in spite of their sins and failures: Ezekiel delivered a message of judgment, and foretold the destruction of the city. After Jerusalem had been finally sacked, in 586 BC, the Jewish exiles were demoralized and discouraged: Ezekiel delivered a message of hope for future restoration.
Chris Wright unpacks the message of Ezekiel in its own day, as well as its in contemporary relevance for us. A couple of quotations will give a flavor of the book. Think about this from page 68-69:
Or consider this from page 198:

Obviously, I am not a member of Clint's inner circle, much less any kind of confidante, so it goes without saying I am referring to Eastwood in a movie. It doesn't take the fingers of even one hand to count the number of times Clint has cried on camera (truth be told, I can remember just one other time, in his Best Picture Oscar winner Unforgiven), which is what makes this such a rarity. It happens though, in his latest acting-directing outing, the justifiably lauded Million Dollar Baby, however I will refrain from revealing why Clint breaks down. That the stone man shed a tear or two is spoiler enough for this column.
Million Dollar Baby tells the story of a grizzled vet of the boxing arena, Frankie Dunn, who reluctantly agrees to manage Maggie, a younger woman boxer, played by Hillary Swank. Frankie is as old-school as they come, and he only agrees to take on Maggie after his prize protege abandons him for a new manager, and his close friend, Eddie "Scrap Iron" Dupris, played by Morgan Freeman, coaxes him into the idea. Frankie and Maggie form an unbeatable partnership, his hard-fought experience meshing seamlessly with her wrought-iron determination, their story told by Freeman in the same gravelly narration well-known to fans of The Shawshank Redemption.
But it is more than just what they bring into the gym and the ring that knot the ties that bind for these two lost souls. They complete each other emotionally. Frankie's daughter gave up on him years ago, and he carries the pain of that loss so deep he doesn't even know it's why he goes to church every day. Maggie is the product of the worst kind of trailer park white trash. After her biggest payday in the ring, she buys her mother a house only to get berated because the new home could jeopardize Mom's welfare scam with the state. Together, Maggie and Frankie form a union beyond athlete-coach, an emotional, familial bond that is galvanized through the sweat and blood of the ring, and the tears and inner turmoil of the outside world. Eastwood continues to amaze, after all these years. No one questions his ability to stare down an opponent or evoke anger. Even his characteristically dry, wiseacre persona is intact. But there is a depth of humanity to his performance here that, surprisingly, at his age, he has yet to share on screen. As he reaches the end of his acting career (he's talked of not appearing on camera anymore), it's as if he has saved the best for last, silencing all those critics from all these years who have questioned his talent as an actor (one of the more famous quotes, "Mr. Eastwood, who graduated from the Mount Rushmore School of Acting...")
Thank goodness Clint hasn't talked of abandoning directing as well. His ability to continue to draw incomparable performances from his actors is equally impressive. Eastwood wears two hats here -- star and director -- and he deftly pulls from Swank a richly appealing portrayal of a young woman who might easily have fallen through one of society's cracks had it not for her own resolve and ambition. Swank creates a unique character, an agreeable, immensely likable waif whose ingenuousness outside the ring (she wraps meat scraps from her waitress job to eat later at home) is matched by an unrelenting ferocity inside.
Freeman brings his usually reliable presence to Million Dollar Baby. He and Eastwood proved a solid team when they first worked onscreen together in Unforgiven, and the chemistry between these two screen vets remains intact, their days of physically jabbing long over and replaced with verbal sparring. Despite the brutality of Million Dollar Baby's subject, it is the compassion and the warmth that ultimately stay with you long after the credits roll. For some, a surprising result from a man whose reputation is as rock-hard as his chiseled-in-granite features. Not for me.

Nationally Recognized Mr. Yuk Symbol Kicks Off the New Year with a New Toll-free Number
Pittsburgh, Pa. - January 16, 2002 -
Mr. Yuk, the mean, green poison awareness symbol that is familiar to people across the country; now has a new 1-800 number that will directly route calls to the nearest Poison Center.
For more than 30 years, Mr. Yuk's scowling face has been used to educate children about poisons and to promote poison center awareness. Mr. Yuk was the first and is the most widely used poison education symbol in the nation. He can be found in use in 24 states and the District of Columbia.
And now, the 25 counties in the commonwealth currently served by the Pittsburgh Poison Center at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh can obtain emergency poison information through a new toll-free number. This makes the Pittsburgh Poison Center easily accessible to everyone, no matter where they are free of charge – simply by dialing 1-800-222-1222.
"No matter where a resident of western Pennsylvania is traveling in the United States, remembering a single number will place them in contact with a Poison Center – 24 hours-a-day, seven days a week," said Dr. Edward Krenzelok, director of the Pittsburgh Poison Center at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh.
The new system automatically reads the area code from of the phone the person is calling from, and immediately connects them with to the local Poison Center in that area. The new toll-free number is designed to assist people who may not have access to the local number or be located in a region that has a poison center.
The Pittsburgh Poison Center at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh answers calls 24 hours-a-day, seven days a week and serves nearly 4 million residents. The center receives approximately 78,000 poison inquires each year. It also developed a hospital-based poison treatment system involving 70 hospitals in western Pennsylvania, and 12 national businesses and industrial corporations rely on the center for poison consultation. Poison Center staff are highly trained clinical toxicology nurse specialists.
For a free sample of Mr.Yuk stickers with the new toll-free number, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to: Pittsburgh Poison Center, 3705 Fifth Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15213. For more Mr. Yuk information, log onto Children's Hospital's Web site at www.chp.edu.
