Decision on Senoia historic overlay postponed
The Senoia City Council on July 18 took up the issue of potentially eliminating several city streets from the Historic Neighborhood Overlay area that Mayor Robert Belisle said in past years had been erroneously included in the designated area but are not of sufficient age to be considered historic. The issue was postponed until Aug. 1 after a spokesman for the Stonebridge subdivision objected to his area being removed, citing a potential decrease in property values.
City Administrator Richard Ferry in initially explaining the situation said the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) was asked by the Mayor and City Council to reconsider the overall size and shape of the current Historic Neighborhood Overlay area. HPC subsequently recommended removing three areas from the district and adding one small neighborhood.
What is now the Stonebridge subdivision and portions of Willow Dell and Freeman Estates on Standing Rock Road are on the fringe of the overlay district and were constructed since 1996, said Ferry.
Ferry said HPC also recommended removing vacant tracts on the east side of the CSX railroad while adding lots with frontage on Luther Bailey Road and Quick Drive.
The July 18 public hearing on the proposed removal of the various properties was met with approval by some affected residents, disapproval by another and general questions by others.
Opposing the removal was Stonebridge subdivision Homeowners' Association Vice President Richard Bush. The Stonebridge resident said information supplied by an appraiser who serves as the HOA president indicated that property values would diminish if the area was no longer designated as historic. Bush when asked for the data reflecting his position said he did not have it available for the meeting.
Mayor Belisle responded, noting that the inclusion of Stonebridge and the other properties under discussion in the Historic Neighborhood Overlay area had been an oversight from some years ago that needed to be corrected.
"The purpose of historic preservation is to protect historic structures," Belisle said, adding that the city had been negligent in its duty to include the areas since the oldest of the homes was built in the 1980s and were clearly not historic.
Bush in his comments disagreed, sticking with his assertion of falling property values and saying that the city was simply attempting to chip away at the boundaries of the Historic Neighborhood Overlay. Bush also wanted a 60-day delay before any decision would be made.
Belisle and others on the council held to their position that none of the homes qualified as historic, that they would be subject to stricter permitting criteria if the historic designation was maintained and if improvements were ever proposed and that homeowners would potentially be subject to having to remove existing improvements such as chain-link fences that are not allowed in the overlay area.
Affected residents Ken Hazelton and Barry Flippo sided with removing the subject homes from the overlay area, noting that the homes are not old enough to qualify as historic and adding that they did not want to be subject to the additional criteria required under the historic overlay.
The council, agreeing somewhat to the request by Bush and providing time to have any additional information provided, agreed to delay the discussion until Aug. 1.
Addressing the distinction between the city's "Historic Neighborhood Overlay" and the "Historic District," Ferry in a July 18 letter said there has always been confusion regarding the "Historic District" and the "Historic Neighborhood Overlay". The "Historic District" was created by U.S. Department of the Interior to recognize the efforts of city residents to maintain and preserve the beauty of the built environment in Senoia.
This area is generally bound by Couch Street to the north, the CSX railroad to the east, Ga. Highway 16 to the south and Pylant Street to the west, Ferry continued. The Department of the Interior designation comes with the requirement that the city devise a mechanism to insure compatible construction and rehabilitation within the district. To meet this requirement, the City Council approved the Historic Neighborhood Overlay as part of the Zoning Ordinance.
In the planning of the 1999 comprehensive plan, the city expanded the overlay district to include areas outside of the designated historic district. Initially the Planning Commission provided the required oversight for the Historic Neighborhood Overlay. In 2006, the Historic Preservation Commission was created and still exists today, Ferry said.

Wondering if anyone uses coatings to help protect the top rim of soft brick in their electric kilns?
Lately I've been having lots of abrasion wear on top rim of my kilns for some reason, not sure if it's careless loaders or short people, haha. Was considering using a coating of some sort, to help resist the wear a little bit, since I just replaced a lot of brick several months ago. Not sure what coating would be ideal in this location - thinned kiln mortar/cement, ITC coating, kiln wash, the fancy colloidal silica recipe mentioned in this forum, etc are what come to mind. I have seen people make fancy plywood jigs that protect the kiln when loading - perhaps I'll make some, but I still want to know about coatings.

November sweeps is upon us, which means plenty of big-name guest stars invading your favorite TV shows. You can't possibly watch them all (we know; we've tried), so here's a quick and easy guide to which sweeps guest stars you need to tune in for… and which you can skip. — Dave Nemetz, Yahoo! TV
November Sweeps Guest Stars: Who's Worth Watching?
6 / 11
11/11 - The Good Wife
Christina Ricci on "The Good Wife" (November 11)
Her ABC airline drama "Pan Am" took a nosedive last season, but Ricci's back on TV this fall, albeit for one night only. She plays a foul-mouthed comedienne whose shocking act is a stark contrast with her cover-girl looks. We'd say she's playing Sarah Silverman, but Silverman already guest starred on "The Good Wife" last season, so she could've just played herself.
Worth Watching? Sure, we'll tune in to see Ricci talk dirty.

|Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission
|Website: Columbia Plateau Trail State Park
The Columbia Plateau Trail is a 130-mile-long (210 km), 20-foot-wide (6.1 m) corridor in eastern Washington state along the abandoned right-of-way of the former Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway. It runs between Cheney, Washington and Pasco at the confluence of the Snake River and Columbia River. It passes through parts of five counties in southeastern Washington. It is open to public for recreational use as part of the Washington State Park system. Uses include wildlife viewing, hiking, mountain bicycling, horseback riding and, in paved portions, in-line skating.[1][2]
The northern portion of the trail passes through the primarily ponderosa pine/grassland mixed with exposed basalt cliffs and areas of meadow and shrub-steppe. It bisects the Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge, an area of northeastern Washington on the eastern edge of the Columbia River Basin which encompasses approximately 16,000 acres (6,500 ha) of the channeled scablands.[3] The numerous erosion-created potholes have formed over 130 marshes, wetlands and lakes which attract a wide range of waterfowl; more than 200 different kinds of birds have been recorded in this area. The Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1937 to provide productive breeding and nesting grounds for migratory birds. Other wildlife which inhabit the reserve include elk, mule deer, white-tailed deer, coyotes, badgers, porcupines, muskrats, and beavers.[4]
Geological features[edit]
As it crosses the Columbia River Plateau, the trail passes through the unique geological erosion features of the channeled scablands created by the cataclysmic Missoula Floods that swept periodically across this portion of eastern Washington as well as other parts of the Columbia River Plateau during the Pleistocene epoch. The trail follows one of the many paths taken by the Missoula Floods as they cut through the Columbia River Basalt. Notable geologic features which the trail passes include the Cow Creek scabland, the point at which the Palouse River departs its former course (captured by ice-age flood erosion), Washtucna Coulee (the abandoned course of the Palouse River scoured wide by the floods), Devil's Canyon (a dry, straight, 4-mile-long (6.4 km) former flood channel which descends to the Snake River), giant current-created ripples formed by the flood currents in the low lands along the Snake River, and the Walker Bar, created by the outflow of the floods.[5]

Proceeding from the northeast toward the southwest, major access points include:

Political Hay
Obama's Tea-Leaf Readers
They know the dissatisfaction is deeper than reported.
It's been a week since several hundred thousand Americans met in some 750 cities at TEA ("Taxed Enough Already") parties to protest high taxes and government spending. One group sent a million tea bags to the White House. The self-styled "mainstream" media had studiously avoided covering the phenomenon in advance and, led by the New York Times, belittled it afterward. They were joined by the Obama Administration and its acolytes as being only the ventings of disgruntled conservatives.
These all tended to say that the TEA parties were the brainchildren of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity or the Fox News Channel. In fact, the tea party idea was first mentioned by a commentator on CNN, followed by a mid-February TEA party in Orlando, Florida, that drew some four thousand participants.
Oddly, the Obama Administration, which quickly dismissed the events as trivial and inconsequential, kept right on doing so nearly a week later. If something were inconsequential wouldn't they comment, then drop it? Instead, Last Sunday, as a guest on a TV public affairs program, Obama advisor David Axelrod said, "The thing that bewilders me is this president just cut taxes for 95 percent of the American people. So I think the tea bags should be directed elsewhere because he certainly understands the burden that people face."
This mantra was repeated by others. It belies the fact that the "tax cut" referred to amounts to an average $8-a-week reduction in Social Security taxes deducted from paychecks (and does not relieve those workers from the tax liability at year's end). And, for those who pay no income tax, it is in the form of checks called "rebates." If you don't pay taxes there is nothing to rebate. What they amount to are transfers from Americans who pay taxes to those who don't, a.k.a. welfare.
Axelrod's hyperbolic defense of Obama's policy was widely covered on Monday. Then, on Tuesday, President Obama, at the opening of a cabinet meeting, allowed tape recorders to keep rolling after the obligatory group photo, so that he could trumpet "savings" being effected by his appointees. One of these was the "news" that the Department of Homeland Security would save $62 million over the next 10 years by engaging in bulk purchases of supplies. One wonders why they hadn't been doing that all along. The other savings were, accordingly, also minor against the backdrop of record deficits and a $7.6 trillion federal budget.
The Obama recitation, combined with the continuous criticism of the TEA parties by his tribunes, tells us that the White House has been reading its internal polls and finding that the TEA parties were a much more worrisome demonstration of public dissatisfaction than it wants the public to know.
Despite Obama's cool exterior and occasionally soaring rhetoric, he is not immune from making mistakes. The jolly handshake with Hugo Chavez is one; the budget and deficit are two very large ones.

Out of Stone takes two characters from his earlier award-winning anoxic zone series and gives them headline roles. They fulfill them rather tremendously;
Sechra may have been a child when she was salvaged from the revolution, but not before witnessing the barbaric nature of the enemy. The nightmares she lived through could not be forgotten, nor the odium in her soul. She hid the execration behind sparkling eyes and a seemingly open nature. Just behind her eyes, however, lurked something entirely disturbing. Sechra's subconscious found release through her artistic abilities. No one initially thought anything of her renderings other than they lent themselves to the macabre. The hideous subject matter was overlooked, as it seemed a cathartic for the young woman.
What wasn't seen, however, was the dark hand that guided her artwork, or the deep-seated hatred that gave strength to her arms and hands to create it. Not until it was too late, that is.
Her aunt, Karuna Danesti, raised the young Sechra. Her love for the child kept her from seeing the darkness within the girl's work. Let us say 'love is blind'. But love is also unconditional. Karuna would do anything to save Sechra from a fate worse than death. Anything!
Evil is not something that wishes to be put away in the darkness, to be shuttered out of the light and out of sight, as we would like it to be. No, it wants to live among men and be the very bane of their existence.
The epic, award winning anoxic zone series continues on with john g rees' Out Of Stone. If you thought evil had been put to rest with his previous novels, think again.

was one of several ancient Egyptian deities who appeared in canine form. Usually depicted as a doglike creature with a gray or white head, Wepwawet is often incorrectly identified as a wolf, but the animal sacred to Wepwawet was most probably the jackal. The jackal was an appropriate representation for a funerary deity since the ancient Egyptians had no doubt observed the jackal's nocturnal activities in the desert areas used for cemeteries.
Like another jackal god, Anubis, Wepwawet was a funerary deity. He was one of the earliest deities worshiped at the cemetery site of Abydos in southern Egypt. The worship of Wepwawet at Abydos paralleled that of Khentyamentiu, yet another jackal god. When Osiris absorbed the characteristics of Khentyamentiu, Khentyamentiu's role as the lord of the cemetery at Abydos was filled by Anubis. With the rise of solar religion at the beginning of the twelfth dynasty, Osiris's role was limited to the underworld, and the position of local god and lord of the cemetery was in turn filled by Wepwawet, who bears the epithets "Lord of Abydos" and "Lord of the Necropolis." Wepwawet was also the local deity of the thirteenth nome of Upper Egypt, modern Asyut. The ancient Greeks called the town Lycopolis ("Town of the Wolf"), indicating early confusion about the original form of this god. Other cult centers of Wepwawet included Quban, el-Hargarsa, Memphis, and Sais.
Wepwawet's name (Wp-wʒ.wt) means "the opener of the ways" and refers to his role in leading the deceased through the paths of the underworld. In the funerary texts of the New Kingdom, such as the Book of Going Forth by Day (Book of the Dead) and the Book of That Which Is in the Underworld (Amduat), Wepwawet's role is that of a protective deity. In royal mythology, the king was accompanied by a fast, doglike creature while hunting, and the animal was referred to as the "the one with the sharp arrow who is more powerful than the gods." These arrows also "opened the way," and may be connected to the name of this deity.
Wepwawet is often depicted atop a standard. His image is accompanied by a uraeus and an enigmatic hieroglyph, which has been described as a representation of the placenta of the king. The standard of Wepwawet was carried preceding the king, and, in the Middle Kingdom, preceding Osiris in processions from the palace or temple. The Narmer mace head shows such a standard in use as early as the first dynasty. This use of the god's image on a standard may indicate his early role as a warlike deity. The jackal god Wepwawet symbolized Upper Egypt in royal processions, while Lower Egypt was represented by the Apis bull of Memphis. Wepwawet was thought of as the messenger and the champion of royalty. He is called the son of Isis, and has close connections with the deities Harendotes and Herishef. Like the god Shu, Wepwawet is referred to as "the one who has separated the sky from the earth."

Conferencing Microphone Systems

Conferencing solutions are making huge strides in providing a multitude of features for all types of applications. With wired and wireless, security and quality may reside in the same products and the price points vary along with the features needed. With simpler configuration and exhaustive voting capabilities, everything you need is now available.
AKG's CS3 System is a modular and flexible conference system with components that can be easily set up, wired, and expanded. One base unit can support 60 microphones. The base unit connects to all relevant devices such as PA, recording, external audio sources, and camera control systems. It also comes with a robust interface connector, making it simple to interchange the stations microphone. The detachable microphone comes in two choices: the CS321 cardioid condenser capsule on a 30cm (12in.) long gooseneck and the 50cm (20in.) long CS521. It features plug-and-play setup for repeatable operation.
Three selectable operating modes (on/off, push-to-talk, or push-to-mute) functions allow Apex Electronics' Apex146 to be effective in many situations. The integrated silent touch-switch on the front panel and LED ring indicator give the user control of the microphone without snaps and pops. The Apex146 is suitable for conferencing, discussion groups, and announcement applications.
Audio-Technica's ATCS-60 wireless infrared technology provides flexibility and freedom. Features include four selectable channels for multi-language conferences and an automated camera function facilitating audiovisual integration. Wireless infrared technology offers peace of mind that your information never leaves the room. Battery life indication, a built-in speaker, and a headphone jack along with voice detection and a standard battery life of 6 hours make this system quite powerful.
The MicroPod Series modular system from Audix consists of the M1250B miniature condenser microphone that can be combined with either a 6in., 12in., or 18in. gooseneck shaft. The MicroPod series system is available with a hypercardioid polar pattern option for tighter pick-up control or a shotgun pickup pattern for extended distance. The MicroPod series requires 18 - 52V phantom power.
The 6-channel infrared conferencing system from Azden features a rackmount receiver (1RR-106) with six individual (volume adjustable) outputs and one mixed output. RF protection against DTV and mobile phones, and the security of containing all audio signals 'inside the room,' help make these systems formidable. Azden tabletop mics can use alkaline or rechargeable batteries, features a flexible gooseneck, and a push on/push off/talk button.
The 5th generation of wireless conference technology from beyerdynamic is the Quinta discussion system, which meets some of the most stringent requirements regarding operational safety, reliability, and transmission security. The wireless microphone units use gooseneck microphones in four different lengths. Using the steno-s 4 software from beyerdynamic, it is also possible to record meetings. Included features such as Braille and a headphone connection for hearing assistance adhere to the UN Convention on equal rights for disabled people.
The CCS900 Ultro Discussion System from Bosch offers design features and functions, which include a patent-pending Possible-To-Speak indicator, giving delegates a visual indication when the microphone is available to speak. Depending on the selected mode of the control unit (CU), up to four delegates can switch on their microphones simultaneously. Each system includes a CU connected to a number of delegate and chairman units. The advanced CU is equipped with an easy-to-read LCD screen and a Secure Digital (SD) card slot for recording. They use Bosch Digital Acoustic Feedback Suppressor (DAFS), which employs proprietary digital signal processing functions to balance sound pressure levels and system gain above normal feedback limits.

Digimic by Bräehler is the multifaceted solution, using Digimic Mini, Classic, and Pro systems. Digimic works as a standalone solution and its plug-and-play setup is self-configuring. With DMicControl software, Digimic can also be controlled at any time via PC. All functions and settings can also be steered by external systems such as media controllers and computer software, or can be operated completely independent of any computer software. The microphone units are connectable via robust and lockable male and female connectors. In wireless operation mode, the Digimic transmission protocol guarantees interference-free communications. The integrated rechargeable lithium-polymer battery ensures continuous operation for more than 20 hours.
CAD Audio's Astatic GNVPD series features include a continuously variable polar pattern, high pass filter, miniature gooseneck condenser with integrated desk stand, programmable membrane switch, LED, and logic interface. It is engineered to resist interference from devices such as cell phones and two-way communication devices. The logic input can remotely control the LED as well as the membrane switch activation. The membrane switch working with or bypassing the microphone's mute activates the logic output. The GNVPD is primarily designed for speech and vocal pickup in governmental, institutional, and business applications.
The S 157-RF from Clockaudio features a desk stand with fully programmable touch pad for PTT, PTM, and latching mode. A 5-pin female XLR plug is provided for input connection for Clockaudio Halo microphones. A 7-pin male socket mounted on the rear of the product is provided for output connection. It is fully protected against RF interference, which will eliminate all GSM frequencies from 800-1200MHz.
Electro-Voice's PolarChoice Satellite Satellite Desktop is a dual gooseneck tabletop microphone and base with the ability to adapt to any Electro-Voice or Telex brand wireless bodypack transmitter. It features the same polar pattern, filter, and mute switch functionality as its wired counterpart, and is available in 5in., 12in., and 18in. gooseneck length versions.
The CS-1CU i-Conference Discussion System from JTS is equipped with an inhouse-made ECM capsule, intelligent automatic mixing technology, and integrated acoustic and mechanical design, providing turnkey solution and delivering natural audio performance. The control unit is the center of the discussion system, which controls the microphones of the chairman and delegate units as well as connects to other audio input and output. It also supplies the power for the CU itself, and up to 50 chairman and delegate units. The delegate unit enables the attendants to participate in a discussion by speaking through a microphone, controlled by a microphone on/off push-button, and listening to discussion by the internal loudspeaker and external headphone.
Revolabs' Executive HD MaxSecure wireless microphone system offers support for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) and dynamic re-keying. The rackmountable main unit offers support for up to eight microphones and multiple units can be linked together to support 32 or more microphones per area. It can be integrated with all control systems via RS-232 or Ethernet and programmed from the front-panel LCD display.

The modular, expandable, and mobile SDC 8200 digital conference and interpretation system from Sennheiser brings new features to the conference room, including configurations to meet applications, from a small seminar to a large international conference with up to 1,024 participants, and advanced voting capabilities. Each unit features high-quality microphones, dual speakers, XLR minus mode, and RF shielding from mobile devices.
From the Shure DIS line of discussion and conferencing solutions, the DCS 5900 Digital Discussion System is ideal for public spaces that require quality sound. The DDS 5900 is built for a wide range of government applications as it is intuitively designed to work seamlessly in a permanent installation or as a plug-and-play portable system that can be set up and taken down at a moment's notice. The DDS 5900 uses a daisy-chain architecture based on standard Cat-5 cables, allowing users to expand the system out to 250 discussion units for large-scale installations. It also allows microphones to be activated by the chairperson, by individual delegates, or voice-activated. The system features two language interpretation channels for seamless translation and control through its integrated control software, which is accessible through a Web browser and functional on a PC or mobile device.
The MCDT300A from Speco Technologies offers performance at an affordable price. This push-to-talk gooseneck design features an ultra-cardiod pickup pattern, frequency response of 50Hz to 16kHz, with a sensitivity of -42bB. It uses two AA batteries.
The Taiden HCS-5302D/20 is a digital infrared wireless conferencing microphone unit that uses digital infrared technology, not RF. This unit guarantees superb audio performance with no interference from mobile phones, Wi-Fi networks, or other RF systems. Lightning and direct sunlight are no problem no problem. The system provides easy multi-room configuration and combination. Additionally IR is inherently secure making it a solution of choice for confidential meeting facilities. The solution, provided by Media Vision, is most seen in corporate firms and government organizations in large cities, especially for teleconferencing applications.
TOA's TS-900 central unit of the Infrared Conference system features control functionality from a PC (the control software is not attached), an installation confirmation function that confirms the connection status for the transmitter/receiver units and installation status for the conference units, and voting function that computes and displays the voting result. Two speech outputs are provided (main and sub channels) for use in simultaneous interpreting conference. With the use of an optional rackmounting bracket, it can be mounted in an EIA Standard equipment rack (four-unit size). The TS-901 is a chairman unit that features a priority speech key, which allows it to take precedence over the TS-902 delegate units (optional) when speaking. It can be operated on either the AD-0910 AC adapter (optional) or the BP-900 lithium-ion battery (optional).

Yikes! Condo prices back at bubble levels
Looks like crazy condo prices are back.
The big news this morning is yet another big jump in home sales in Massachusetts, hitting levels not seen since 2005.
But take a look at what's happening with condos. The median condo sale price across the state appears to have hit a new record in August, weighing in at nearly $320,000, The Warren Group reports this morning.
That smokes that last high water mark, set back in August 2005, when the median price of a condo in Massachusetts reached $290,500.
The idea that condos are blowing past their bubble-years price records also holds up when you look at the numbers over a several month stretch. That's generally a more reliable indicator than just comparing one month to another.
Even then, the numbers hold up nicely - or not so nicely, maybe, if you are buyer trying to land a condo right now.
The median condo price in Massachusetts for the first eight months of 2013 comes in at just a shade or two under $300,000 - or $295,000 to be exact.
That's compared to $279,900 during the first eight months of 2005, according to Warren Group numbers.
So what in the world is going on?
Certainly the Cambridge, downtown Boston and Somerville (as in Davis and Porter squares) condo markets are on fire right now. Selling a condo in the Back Bay or Beacon Hill for a couple million ceased being a big deal a long time ago.
But higher home prices are also pushing would-be buyers into condos, long the Bay State equivalent of the starter home.
And all those refugees from the overpriced single-family home market, in turn, are pushing up the price of condos, making them almost as unaffordable now as single-family homes.
In fact, condo prices are catching up fast with home prices, with the median price of a condo, at just under $320,000, just a mere $20,000 below the median home price, now $340,000 after a 10 percent jump in August.
Condo buyers, sellers, what are you seeing out there? Are condo prices getting out of hand again?

Watch the First Documented Hurricane Sandy Weatherman 'Fail'
Weatherman Peter Doocy was standing out on Rehoboth Beach in Delaware, showing how intense the ocean was becoming before the storm even arrived when something went wrong.
Weatherman Peter Doocy was standing out on Rehoboth Beach in Delaware, showing how intense the ocean was becoming before the storm even arrived when something went wrong.
Hurricane Sandy is being called the storm of the century. Being that it is such an unique weather event, nobody is really sure the extent to which its high winds and flooding will damage the East Coast of the United States.
But we may have gotten some insight into the changes to come from a Washington, DC news broadcast. As you can see, NBC 4's cameras captured images of a shirtless horse-headed man jogging through the streets of our nation's capital.
Unless you're driving a truck or bus, you can pretty much ignore the signs which warn how tall upcoming bridges are. But it turns out that many truck drivers also ignore these signs, and as you'll see in this video compilation, they often pay a price for it!
Who knew we were mistaken about Abraham Lincoln's assassin all these years? Thanks a lot, U.S. History 101!
Intrepid Tennessee reporter Carley Gordon got way more than she bargained for when an Asian carp broke free during a Channel 4 News report and nearly sent her over the side of a boat. Well, it is an invasive species, after all. What did she expect?
For someone who's been described as the nicest guy in Hollywood, Tom Hanks sure has a dirty mouth. On 'Good Morning America' today, the actor inadvertently dropped the "F-bomb" on live TV, shocking host Elizabeth Vargas and embarrassing himself in the process. Oopsy! (Warning: NSFW)
This is how people humiliated themselves on television before reality TV. This compilation takes the best of people's hilariously embarrassing wrong answers from game shows old and new and puts them all in one place...
It was Louis' idea for him and his girlfriend to take a ride on a slingshot style roller coaster in this NSFW video. We know this because before the trip begins the young lady repeats "Louis, I hate you" over and over again.
If your inner 15-year-old boy is screaming for entertainment, this is probably the video for you.
We're having a bit of an 'America's Funniest Home Videos' day here. First there was the incredibly painful faceplant compilation, and now we've got this kid getting smacked right in the face with a soccer ball by his dad.
If you think it's funny when people fall and get hurt, you are going to think this NSFW video is HILARIOUS.
As we've learned from Lady Gaga AND Justin Bieber, the show must go on. Fortunately (is it?) QVC guest host Cassie Slane didn't barf in front of her audience. She just fainted a little bit after a second of chest patting.
If weddings were a sport, we'd be wrapping up the main season. And like all sports, there's a blooper reel!
By all accounts, bowling isn't a contact sport. And yet, dozens of bowlers slip, slide and crash to the ground in this amazingly entertaining compilation of bowling fails. Okay, okay. This supercut convinced us. We'll never say bowling isn't a real sport again.
As many an unlucky motorist knows, deers don't always have the proper respect for fast moving objects.

China has to choose either be bullied or oblitarated by America or die of pollution or better yet have one child policy that will wipe out Chinas population and manpower Lol !
Anonymous 6:58
Kudos !! That's the funniest bit I've read in weeks.
I don't know what's the bigger joke in China anymore! China's Environmental Protection Agency or China's State Food, and Drug Administration!
This just in from Commieland Jr.: Big boobs are officially frowned upon in North Korea. Seems they indicate bad morals. Finally some good news ! We can now stop worrying about the Swedish ski team defecting.
Chinese need money not clean air.They are happy to die with money in their coffin. Dream money and die like dogs.
Americans need to work longer hours so they can pay back some of the Billions of Dollar$ they borrowed from their Chinese masters.
Its unfortunate the cash was spent losing 2 corrupt wars. Silly American fools.
not everyone in the USA is obese from eating too much nasty junk food
just 33% of them
wake up sinaese!
u r the most harmful, troblesome and inferior race in the world.
Do not bother any people and nation!
Do not violating minorities' and dissidents' human rights!
Do not intrude into the territories belonging to the other Asian nations!
Do not covet what to belong to others!
Do not destroy environment on the earth!
Do not do something dishonest to others!
Anyway stupid sinaese, especially incompetent xi with donkey sextet of the current corrupt regime,
do not tell lies to others!
The #1 Chinese secret to staying slim: Eating Rats. #2: Famine.
Special supply of dieseased rats we keep for our American customers, all we have to do is add plenty of sugar and salt to keep the ignorant americans dribbling and returning for more.
And by the way.... 1 in 6 Americans live in poverty and its getting worse.
Go figure that, fat boy.
The other 67% of Americans are cyborgs and lost there arms legs and balls because of all the invasions Lol !
Even though so many Americans are obese brainwashed ignorant big mouth's who are cultureless arragant peasants that are generally disliked by most of the planet ....... I still feel pity for them
China's Environmental Protection Racket ??
Per person the USA is the worlds biggest polluter.
What's sad is that the 50 cent party cannot even address the air pollution, water pollution, and poison food that is killing Chinese citizens prematurely. Every minute, 6 people in China are discovered to have some form of deadly cancer.
Doesn't help that because China has close to 1.4 billion people, the CCP can only handle treating only 20% of the 'human waste' material flowing into their rivers, lakes, and streams!
@ Go figure....
When in-country I eat what the locals eat. Fortunately, I'm not in China nor plan to be so you can polish of the rest of the diseased rats. Thanks for thinking of me, though.
BTW Our poverty level is three times the average Chinese family income. More rat ?
China could use less polluting coal from Montana proposed to be exported through Seattle...I am sure enviruses here and there would support that...or LNG from Valdez...or lots of oil and gas exported from Canada...surely enviruses would support those less poluting energy sources..
5:37 am February 3, 2013
Maybe China should reduce their reliance on coal producing power plants to generate electricity first? You guys are still stuck at 70% use of coal the last ten years, and if anything, are increasing to 75% reliance on coal to generate electricity!
Until China can upgrade to handle natural gas as an alternative, China will stay a 'smoke-stack' for decades to come! By then, many Chinese will have fled to Russia to escape the death of China's 'Development At All Costs' campaign by Deng Xiaoping!
Pooped my panties again........ be right back
let me wipe it for you Ken
Mommy I smell
I always enjoy watching the CCP's best and brightest in action. The CIA can't buy publicity this good.
this is just one example of what effect chinese government and SOEs have on people's life, and its also just tip of iceberg
they cheat, exploit, and corrupt, nothing is right ever since 1949
don-xi, lower you dead in facing to all Aian people except both of your stupid henchmen, ugly koreans!

The United States of America is a mongrel immigrant race living on Native American land.
We are the locusts of the world.
History will remember our failed empire as a 5 minute blip.
And history will remember the PRC and the hundreds of millions murdered (we're not done counting yet). But you paid trolls are already forgotten.
Like so many Americans I'm scared of everyone. Pity me.
Bush Jr was great for China, made them very rich.
Double-digit growth, 300 million Chinese middle class, worlds largest ecomony by 2016.
30 years after we lost the Vietnam war all the power + money has gone East along with our jobs.

300 million middle class (poverty class in the West) ? That would leave 1.1 billion in destitution, wouldn't it.
Another worthless American who's scared of China; every day we get richer, every day your debt becomes larger.
And Lizard Man steals another 50 cents from the CCP Commie chumps.

President Xi Jinping's effort to clean up politics in the country is generally known as an "anticorruption campaign." In fact, he has a more ambitious agenda.
Earlier this month, Zhang Qi had to wait nearly an hour to get a taxi. In China, that became big news.
China's dramatic announcement that it will modify the one-child policy affects not only families but also the immense bureaucracy dedicated to enforcing the 35-year-old policy.
A article labeled as a confession by official media raises questions about resistance to China's anticorruption crackdown nearly three years into the high-level campaign.
After Xi Jinping remade the Chinese presidency, there are signs that No. 2 Li Keqiang is trying to do the same for his position.

Resurrected from underground.
Malaga's Roman theatre remained hidden underground for many centuries.
Malaga's Roman theatre lies at the foot of the Alcazaba fortress in the western part of the city. It was discovered in 1951, after having remained buried underground for many centuries. Dating back to the first century, it was built during the Empire of Augustus. It was used up until the third century. The Arabs used parts of the theatre for their own building purposes. They took capitals and column shafts for their own Alcazaba fortress as support for the horseshoe arches over the doorways. The theatre has a radius of 31 metres is 16 metres tall and has an orchestra of 15 metres. The area has three main stands and gateways that lead into the stands (vomitorium).

The interior may look a bit bare, but whatever this fish restaurant lacks in warmth it makes up for with the food. Less pricey than its neighbor Cunini, it serves simple but high-quality dishes like grilled mullet, dorado baked in salt, prawns with garlic, and monkfish in saffron sauce. The tapas bar, which is more popular with locals than the dining room, offers classic dishes (€1.50) like migas (fried bread crumbs), beans with serrano ham, and tortilla del Sacromonte (tortilla with lamb testicles and brains, as traditionally prepared by the Sacromonte's gypsies). Granada visitors on Fodor's website community highlight the good, friendly service here.

Hello Everyone. I ruined a pair of Ofmega cranks the other trying to remove them, in my defense however the threads were not correctly done by the manufacturer. you could see where the threads were only originally tapped about half the norman depth.
I came across this fabulous tool but at $200 it is a bit pricy for fixing this crank set. has anyone ever seen one? do you know a shop/home mechanic who has it?
it appears the way it works is it works as a tap and cuts new threads then removes the crank. there is a companion single key release/extractor that is intended to be used afterward.
if anyone knows where one of these tools is in use I would certainly be willing to pay a few hard earned Rubles to have mine tapped.

I was ready to hate Blake Lively as Carol Ferris. In fact I didn't like the casting at all but her performance in the movie was the least of the flaws that bothered me. I thought she did a pretty decent job in the role.
Blake Lively did fine with what she was given, so did Mark Strong and dare I say Ryan Reynolds. The actors weren't at fault for anything to be honest. The
itself was dragging, unimaginative, useless and frankly, unengaging. They had $300+ million to play around with and they basically spent it on making the fucking costume shinier and 'organic' (damn I hate that word). They didn't dwelve into the GL mythos at all, nor did they actually show an inspired action set piece or sequence that could have
the audience. Batman Begins made everyone sit up and take notice whenever The Tumbler was on screen. Iron Man did it with the suit sequences.
What did GL show us? Kilowog throwing rocks at Jordan, Sinestro basically insulting Jordan from the get go. The
was minimal in a fucking
action movie
, the main villain being nothing but a floating space turd, talks of how great the GL Corps are and at the first opportunity, showing how easy it was for Parallax to beat them in a second. OA was a dead, dreary place, the Guardians absolute assholes, and Hector Hammond was a completely out of place villain.
And more importantly, showing Hal Jordan as a fucking
at anything and everything. In the comics Jordan is a total 180 from being a quitter, he literally takes it upon himself to show all the other species in the GL Corps that he can best them all through his sheer willpower. Since when the fuck did it become imperative for Hollyweird writers to make superheroes look like a bunch of fucking weirdos with mommy/daddy issues, completed with an attitude that would even make Emogags say "Whoa there, tone down the mascara there superhero!"
These are but a few problems this abortion of a movie has, and am glad the audience voted with their dollars on this one. GL deserves to a fucking flop. At least this iteration of such a great comics property.

Evening tech news: Microsoft today warned about a serious flaw in all versions of its popular Windows software that could allow hackers to seize control of a person's computer when victims read e-mails or visit Web sites; among Business 2.0's list of the "101 Dumbest Moments in Business" is Microsoft's attempt at rebutting Apple's Switch campaign; several government Web sites in the United States and United Kingdom have been caught off-guard by traffic spikes spurred by the attack on Iraq and worries about a rise in terrorist attacks.
Apple has released iPod Software 1.2.6, a new version of its iPod system software that provides improved battery management which solves a problem that may appear to shorten your iPod's battery life. "Some customers have reported that over time their iPod's battery life has declined," Apple says. This update enables the iPod to more accurately monitor its battery charge, thus using the entire battery capacity and regaining long battery life. The result is longer playback time and extended standby time. After updating the iPod, customers can expect at least 10 days of standby battery life on a full charge.

MacNN reader Will Dean reports on a security hole in Mac OS X 10.2.4, which exposes a user's .Mac password as plain text. (Earlier this week, Apple notified customers of Samba Security Bug in OS X and promised an update.)
"This bug has been confirmed in Mac OS X 10.2.4 and also occurs in a recently leaked build of 10.2.5 (6L11) and may affect older versions as well. There is a major security hole in the Keychain Access application.
"When you open up the Keychain application, you will see a list of stored passwords for the various services, such as your e-mail, Airport and iChat. When a user opens the Keychain application and selects the iTools password keychain and then clicks on the "show passphrase" option (on bottom of page), the user's .Mac password will be exposed [in plain text] without authentication.
"The only way to protect the password is to lock all keychains; by default Apple sets all keychains to unlock. Whenever you unlock a keychain all of them unlock. Note: This bug only affects a user's .Mac password, not other passwords in the Keychain. [Other Keychain password entries require authentication before the display of the password. Users can also change the 'Access Control' of the password to protect the display of this password.]" [updated]
Apple has confirmed that it is discontinuing the original iMac, coinciding with the disappearance of the CRT iMac yesterday morning from the Apple Store. The Washington Post confirms that Apple still continues to the sell the G3 iMac through its Apple Store Education (and some international stores such as the Apple Store UK).

The Long Island Mac Users Group notes that an retail Apple Store will open at the Walt Whitman Mall in New York: "Construction has been started on a new Apple Store in the Walt Whitman Mall in Huntington Station. It's where the FYE record shop used to be. It's in section 'G' not far from Bloomingdales. Expect the store to open around the middle of May... I wonder how this new store will affect the nearby Apple dealer B.C. Computers on Depot Road. Curious how The Apple Retail Stores seem to pop up next to The Sharper Image stores. The new store has not yet been announced at [Apple's retail Website]."

Music: Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne is a singer-songwriter in the pop genre. He started writing and singing music approximately 1973 and is still active.His specialties include epic ballads, Silly Love Songs, Anti Love Songs that were mistaken for Silly Love Songs, protest songs and syncopation.His first hit single at least the first one the classic rock stations are likely to play is "Doctor My Eyes." "Take It Easy" was written and recorded by him with the help of The Eagles' Glen Frey, and recorded by them with his permission, but his version was Covered Up by theirs'.His Magnum Opus may be 1976's The Pretender, which contains "Here Come Those Tears Again", "Linda Paloma" and the title track. Rock critics have tended to shower the most praise on 1974's Late for the Sky, which contains classics like "For a Dancer", "Before the Deluge", "Fountain of Sorrow", and the title track. Others may like Jackson Browne (1972, notable tracks: "Jamaica Say You Will", "Song for Adam", "Doctor My Eyes", "Rock Me on the Water") or For Everyman (1973, notable tracks: "Take It Easy", "These Days", "For Everyman") the best.In 1982 he contributed the song "Somebody's Baby" to the soundtrack of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and it quickly became his highest-charting single ever, peaking at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and staying on said chart for 19 weeks. Following this was the 1983 classic album Lawyers in Love, containing the title song. Lives in the Balance followed three years later with the track "In the Shape of a Heart."His career suffered in the late 1980s and early 1990s, partly because the musical climate was changing, partly because of allegations of domestic abuse. An investigation cleared him, but the allegations hurt his rep. He still has a fanbase out there, though.
- Age Progression Song: "Running on Empty": 1965, 1969, present.
- American Dream: "The Pretender" is about the second variety of this
- Anti-Love Song: Quite a few.
- Christmas Songs: "The Rebel Jesus"
- Concept Album: "Running on Empty", about life as a musician on tour. Included a few live songs and one recorded literally on the road you can hear the engine of his tour bus under the song, and the drum kit was packed away so the bass drum you hear is actually a cardboard box.
- A Date with Rosie Palms: The aptly-named "Rosie".
- Darker and Edgier: "Lives In the Balance" featured a number of quite cynical political numbers, including the title track and "For America".
- Epic Rocking: "Hold On Hold Out" most prominently.
- Grief Song: "Song For Adam", "For A Dancer", "Of Missing Persons", "In the Shape of a Heart". The Pretender, written and recorded in the wake of his first wife's death, probably qualifies as a grief album.
- Rock Star Song: Running on Empty was basically a "rock star album," but the last two songs, "The Load-out" and "Stay," which are meant be played as one song, most exemplify the main point of the album, which is that underneath all the fame, traveling, and Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll, what the rock star really lives for is playing on stange in front of a loving audience.
- Unrequited Love: "Somebody's Baby".

One county staffer calls it "the most promising proposal to date." Valley Roundup - April 10th, 2015 By Carolyn Sackariason • Apr 10, 2015 Welcome to Valley Roundup, a review of the top news stories in the valley in the past week. Glenwood Springs has two new council members. It looks like the Thompson Divide will be safe from oil and gas drilling. But, what about other areas and how do residents there feel about that sort of activity in their backyards? There's movement and millions of dollars in play in getting a base village built at the base of Snowmass ski area. Meanwhile, a new executive director has been hired at the Wheeler Opera House. And, an Aspen City Council candidate is being scrutinized for something he did 10 years ago. Joining me this week are Curtis Wackerle, editor of the Aspen Daily News, Jill Bethard, editor of the Snowmass Sun, Randy Essex, editor of the Glenwood Post Independent and Michael Miracle, editor of Aspen Sojourner magazine. Oil & gas companies propose swap to avoid Thompson Divide development By Elise Thatcher • Apr 6, 2015 Marci Krivonen Two oil and gas companies want to swap Thompson Divide leases, for mineral rights farther north and south of the Roaring Fork Valley. SG Interests and Ursa Resources are two of the largest oil and gas leaseholders in the Thompson Divide. Your Morning News - February 10th, 2015 By Aspen Public Radio News • Feb 10, 2015 Basalt May Take Out Loans for New Underpass The Town of Basalt may take out short-term loans in order to pay for a new underpass at a busy Highway 82 intersection. A pedestrian underpass is planned at Basalt Avenue, near RFTA's Bus Rapid Transit stop. The project is projected to cost $4.8 million with contributions from CDOT, RFTA and possibly other local governments. Basalt plans to go before the Elected Officials Transportation Committee next month. Town Manager Mike Scanlon says the project has been on Basalt's radar for years. "It was the number two project in 2004 and I think it's always been that high. It's just that nobody's put the effort and financing together." He says the underpass will improve safety and provide a better connection between Old Town and southside Basalt. Construction could start this fall. Basalt Town Council will consider using loans or "certificates of participation" at its meeting tonight. Your Evening News - December 30th, 2014 By Aspen Public Radio News • Dec 30, 2014 Ski Co to Open Idaho Resort The Aspen Skiing Company is expanding its operations to Idaho. The ski operator closed on a property in Ketchum and plans to build a new hotel, modeled after an existing one in Aspen. The Ski Co will develop a new Limelight Hotel close to Sun Valley's River Run base of the ski area Bald Mountain. The Limelight in Aspen features large guest rooms, an expansive lounge, a lobby restaurant, and adventure programming for guests. In a statement, the Ski Co's Vice President for Hospitality Don Schuster says the company feels the timing is right to grow the "Limelight brand" and that downtown Ketchum is an ideal location. The hotel in Idaho will include more than 100 hotel rooms and eleven free market residential units. The Skiing Company purchased the Limelight hotel in Aspen in 2010 from the Paas/Woolery families. Valley Roundup - December 12th, 2014 By Rob St. Mary & Elise Thatcher • Dec 12, 2014 Welcome to Valley Roundup, a review of the top news stories in the valley in the past week. This week the White River National Forest released an oil and gas plan. But, does that settle the matter on drilling in the Thompson Divide? The City of Aspen continues to refine a new lodging incentives ordinance. At the same time, the council is asking the city management to give them better information. The State of Colorado is not messing around when it comes to regulations and medical pot shops. Could Aspen's Little Annie's return from the grave… again? Your Morning News - December 10th, 2014 By Aspen Public Radio News • Dec 10, 2014 Aspen Hires New Executive Director of the Housing Authority The City of Aspen is naming a new Executive Director of the Aspen Pitkin County Housing Authority.

Kosdrosky stated his career in the public sector as a Legislative Manager and Policy Advisor in the Ohio House of Representatives. Conservation Groups Cheer White River N.F. Oil, Gas Plan By Marci Krivonen • Dec 9, 2014 White River National Forest The White River National Forest released a "conservation-minded" plan Tuesday for future oil and gas drilling. Conservation groups are cheering the plan, saying it proposes closing nearly all of the Thompson Divide to future leasing. Aspen Public Radio's Marci Krivonen reports. Your Evening News - December 9th, 2014 By Aspen Public Radio News • Dec 9, 2014 Environmentalists Praise White River National Forest Drilling Plan The White River National Forest released a "conservation-minded" plan Tuesday for future oil and gas drilling. Conservation groups are cheering the plan, saying it protects much of the contested Thompson Divide. The long-awaited plan maps out where future oil and gas leasing can happen on the 2.2 million acre White River National Forest. It calls for closing more than 1.2 million acres to oil and gas leasing including much of the contested Thompson Divide area near Carbondale. The Thompson Divide Coalition is working to protect that area. Executive Director Zane Kessler calls the plan "a good step." "We're excited that the Forest Service has taken a very strong, conservation minded lead on this." More work needs to be done, he says, because 100,000 acres already leased on the Divide won't be affected by the Forest Service plan. The plan only applies to future leasing. Mountain Edition - December 4th, 2014 By Elise Thatcher & Marci Krivonen • Dec 4, 2014 Good afternoon and welcome to Mountain Edition. Aspen City Council decides to take up lodging incentives again-- but much more cautiously. Garfield County Commissioners suggest alternate routes for energy companies to reach leases on the contested Thompson Divide. And the Glenwood Springs Police Department aims to crack down on people who don't lock up their trash from bears. The USA Pro Challenge announces Aspen will be included again in its route for 2015, only this time it won't be the start. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 next › last »
