A December attempt to burn down the trailer she lived in was not the first arson charge leveled against a La Grange woman.
Melinda L. Bayorek, 45, of La Grange, was indicted Jan. 14 by the Henry County Grand Jury on a sole count of second degree arson, a class B felony. If convicted, Bayorek could face 10-20 years in prison.
Bayorek was charged in connection with attempting to burn down her rented trailer in Henry County on Dec. 9, 2009.
A big thank you to the city and the residents of Eminence. On Thursday night, Jan. 21, our Greyhound, Quandra, escaped out of our back yard at approximately 8:30 p.m. She was gone for about 30 minutes when we realized that she wasn't out there. After searching until 1:30 in the morning of Jan.
The Highland Renaissance site in Eminence will host a 24-hour footrace on March 13-14, starting at 8 a.m. on Saturday and finishing at 9 a.m. on Sunday. Due to Daylight Saving's Time, which falls during the event, the finishing time has been pushed back one hour to get in the total 24 hours.
The filing deadline for the May 2010 primary has closed. By Tuesday morning, the following candidates filed.
• Scott Bates, Eminence, for Magistrate District 1 as a Republican.
• Ronnie Lee Stephens, Jr., Sulphur, Henry County Jailer as a Republican
• Jason Stanley, Campbellsburg, Magistrate District 3 as a Democrat
• James E. Pollard, Pleasureville, Coroner as a Democrat
• Tammy Louden Sharp, New Castle, Magistrate District 4 as a Democrat
It was a tough decision for Chris Engstrand, but one he felt he had to make. On Jan. 11, he made it official.
I will say there's very few people — if any — happy that Chris Engstrand has decided to leave the Henry County High School football program, but nobody can blame him. How can they?
Engstrand's official decision to leave came on Jan. 11 with a letter of resignation to HCHS Athletics Director Todd Gilley. His wife, Jaime, lost her father in November and they decided to move closer to her mother in Larue County. Like he has preached to his players during the last four seasons, family is a first priority.
Staff writer/photographer
Joy Hay of Turners Station is a petite blonde with a zest for life. From riding motorcycles and water skiing to completing cross stitch projects and jigsaw puzzles she just doesn't know when to give up.
But for Hay, not giving up can be harder than it sounds.
Hay has Parkinson's Syndrome, a condition that some days leaves her unable to lift her arms or even hold a fork.
"One day you can tie your shoestrings," she said. "The next day you can't."
It's safe to say that local elected leaders have seldom faced a year like 2009 and the outlook for 2010 is equally challenging. The members of the Henry County Public and Eminence Independent Boards of Education have worked to preserve the district's ability to educate our children in the face of a massive state budget shortfall and tough economic times at the local level.
The Eminence Warriors put their second check in the win column in dominating fashion Saturday night, jumping out to a big early lead and winning 88-51 over Riverside Christian.
The Warriors started the basketball game on a 13-0 run, led 33-10 after the first quarter, 56-24 at the half and cruised in for the unchallenged 37-point victory. Eminence coach Chris Nethery said the teams decided to play with a running clock during the final two quarters to speed up the game and prevent injuries. Besides timeouts, the clock continuously ticked down the final 16 minutes.
The mandatory garbage fight may be over.
The Supreme Court of Kentucky has denied an appeal filed in 2008 by the Concerned Citizens for Henry County Government, upholding a decision by the Kentucky Court of Appeals.
Unless the Concerned Citizens group decides to pursue the case to the Supreme Court of the United States, the case has reached its end.

NEW PICTURE: Aww! Kristin Cavallari Dresses Son Camden in Football Onesie
Baby Cam is ready for some football!
Kristin Cavallari made sure her son Camden, 2 months, was dressed and ready to cheer on his dad Jay Cutler during Monday's Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions game.
PHOTOS: Jaw-dropping post-baby bods
"Cam is ready for daddy's game," Cavallari, 25, tweeted with an adorable photo of her baby boy wearing a football onesie while laying on his tummy.
The former Hills star's quarterback fiance, 29, helped lead the Bears to a 13-7 victory, despite bruising his ribs during a play. Cavallari retweeted a fan Monday, who wrote, "I hope Jay is OK . . . man he is one tough guy . . . not too many QB's could come back and play . . . great leadership."
PHOTOS: Kristin Cavallari's best bikini moments
The proud fiancee seems to have no problem staying at home watching the game with Cam. Last week, Cavallari told Us Weekly she's been loving motherhood.
PHOTOS: Hills stars -- then and now
"I'm still me -- I still enjoy the same things and like the same things. I'm just an older, more mature version of myself," she told Us at an NYC event Oct. 19. "Where my life is heading is in such a great place. I couldn't be happier. Having a baby is just so much fun!"

Nice try, but when we see the PD invoked in modern Trek, it's invoked for ideological reasons, out of a belief in non-inteference, NOT out of a fear of the logistical difficulties that interference would bring.
Agreed; had that been the point, I think we would've seen a whole different type of hand-wringing in that episode: we can't do enough, how can we decide who lives and who dies because of how we use our limited resources, etc. As the episode is written, it looks instead like callous indifference.

#1 15-year-old Girl Attacked by At Least 9 boys: Police, Media Wont Say by Whom10-18-2013, 10:39 PMIn Glenolden, PA, which is an 85% White borough outside of Philadelphia, a 15-year-old girl was attacked by a gang of at least nine teenage boys after leaving a local high school football game.
The juveniles followed and taunted her on a neighborhood street. Then, they began cursing and spitting at the girl.
Apparently, the taunting, cursing, and spitting wasnt satisfying, so, they double-downed on the feral behavior and assaulted her. She was repeatedly kicked and punched, with at least one of the blows being a head shot.

We think they were from Academy Park. But are not positive.
For the record, Academy Park high school is a district rival and 67% Black.
To be fair, names aren't supposed to be revealed if they're minors.I think that black lesbian couples should be allowed to protect themselves from gangsta thugs, Islamic terrorists, and KKK members with guns.

The police and media called for the publics full assistance to capture the perpetrators.
However, there was one glaring problem with their call for help; the released description of the attackers was simply teenage boys. For some strange reason, neither the police department nor press wanted to be more specific about the teenage boys.
Im no detective, but how can the public be expected to effectively assist if the vital information is limited to teenage boys? Are the police and media protecting and serving the public, or the criminals?

are there any instructions or guide in using this mod?
This mod changes the skins that vehicles use in multiplayer Frontline and Combat modes. Many of the vehicles are now camouflaged and several new tanks are available for play. Some of these new vehicles are the T-70, BA-64, M20, Hetzer, Maxson, Mk I Bishop, Mk VII Tetrarch, GAZ-67B, KV-1, Flakpanzer I, Pz I (B), Jagdpanther, SdKfz 222, and more. Armor skirts around the StuG IV Ausf.G were removed. The winter and desert skins are also available for you to use but the multiplayer has only been set up to use the forest camo for now.
Add 13 SP-to-MP converted maps with full Combat and Battle Zones support, new "Winter" Unitset for all maps in Combat/Battle Zones/Frontline mode that switches all vehicles to winter skins, even the soldiers

December 2, 2015
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) --- Jake Locker says he's ahead of schedule in his rehab from surgery on his right foot, and the Tennessee quarterback expects to be taking part in the Titans' on-field work in May.
That's exactly what the Titans and new coach Ken Whisenhunt wanted to hear as they started their offseason program Monday.
Whisenhunt says he needs to see Locker stay healthy and produce this year and become the Titans' quarterback for the future. Locker has missed 14 of his 32 starts and is only under contract for 2014. The Titans are not expected to pick up an option worth $13 million in May for the 2015 season.
Locker understands what the Titans expect, saying the NFL is about production.

Looks like I will be heading to whistler in aug. I have an epiphany and a moment and a few hardtails. I was wondering if any one has taken their moment to whistler? Mine is a 2005 with a dhx air and a duel air pike on the front. I currently have a 2.0 on the back tire and a 2.25 blue groove on the front. I am probably not looking at doing alot in the park, but I still worry this isn't enough bike. I could easily throw some bigger tires on it but a fork would obviously cost a little bit more. I couold be talked into a fox 36 or a zoik 66. Just wondering what people's experiences have been in whistler with their moments.

Michael Steffens gets a little nervous these days when he hears car wheels coming up his rural Healdsburg driveway or one of his dogs barking at the window.
A little more than two years ago, the 51-year-old carpenter was the victim of a home-invasion robbery in which he was tied up and beaten by four men who dressed as police officers.
Steffens survived and the men were quickly caught and punished.
But unlike other victims, Steffens said he's been unable to get public assistance for the post-traumatic stress disorder he's developed. And the courts have so far declined to award restitution for the bulk of his losses.
Authorities won't help him, Steffens said, because he was growing doctor-recommended marijuana, in full compliance with local guidelines.
"From the beginning I was denied services that would typically be given to someone whose car was stolen," said Steffens, a card-carrying medical pot user since 2003. "They just threw their hands in the air."
Steffens' case comes amid increasing controversy and confusion over marijuana laws.
While state and local governments have approved possession of certain amounts for medicinal purposes, marijuana remains illegal in the eyes of the federal government.
The Drug Enforcement Administration this fall began raiding local pot farms after the U.S. Attorney announced a crackdown on distributors.
At the same time, violence connected to marijuana theft has mounted. At least two Sonoma County homicides in 2011 are believed to be linked to pot.

Shark Pet Perfect SV75 Handheld Vacuum
Shark's Pet Perfect SV75 performs similar to the more expensive Pet Perfect II — even better in some areas, like dirt pickup on carpet, handle comfort, and maneuverability. This handvac also comes with a crevice tool and a detachable, motorized brush for carpets and upholstery. However, we were disappointed by its short peak power runtime — a meager 3.5 minutes. sharkhandvacs.com.

Michael Harward, UAB MBA '14 shares his story
With an engineering degree from Duke University, Michael was interested in an MBA to help refine and develop skills that would allow him to "pursue his interest in helping an organization develop a vision and think through how to get there".
Living in Birmingham with his wife, who was already pursuing another master's program, practically guaranteed him at least a couple of years in the Magic City. He began evaluating different options. "I decided that pursuing an MBA in person (rather than an online program) would provide a much more valuable experience," says Michael. "Also, UAB's superior academic reputation as compared to other local peers drew me to UAB's MBA program."
Michael was connected to his current employer, SCA (Surgical Care Affiliates), through the MBA program and now after only 1.5 years is in a leadership position within the Financial Operations department. "The MBA program prepared me to engage with senior leadership within the company, create innovative solutions that contribute to our group's strategy, and manage my team effectively," says Michael. "Also, I feel capable of thriving within a large company or leading as a part of a start-up. My ability to evaluate the soundness of a business plan or idea separates me from many of my peers."
How was Michael's experience in UAB's MBA program?
"The program does an extraordinary job connecting students to the current business environment," says Michael. "The latest trends, developments, and events of today's business world were almost constantly discussed in the classroom. Plus, the program provided excellent networking opportunities."
Foundations of Quantitative AnalysisAdmission to the UAB MBA Program requires that students have completed the equivalent of a pre-calculus course with a grade of "C" or better within the past five years. If an applicant does not meet this requirement, they may be admitted with the contingency of satisfying the requirement during their first term of enrollment. We offer several options for satisfying this requirement.
Option one: Complete MA 105 "Pre-calculus Algebra" at UAB with a grade of "C" or better or complete a comparable course at another college or university and complete the course with at least a "C" grade. A placement test or other prerequisites may be required for admission to MA 105. You can call 934-2154 or visit the UAB Department of Mathematics (www.math.uab.edu ) for more information about taking MA 105 at UAB.
Option two: Successfully complete the pre-calculus proficiency exam. Currently enrolled students can take the exam at no cost online via Canvas. Students needing assistance in preparing for the test can use the material provided on Canvas in the Foundations of Quantitative Analysis Course shell.
If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call at (205) 934-8815

Anyone interested in a WEDS Night League at Mill Creek?
Matt hatchew March 23 at 6:18pm
Any idea when leagues will start?
April 6th i believe is official start date but people will probably start unofficial a week early or so
is it still tue night?
Miles smilez Campbell March 21 at 9:11pm
Anyone have a condition update?
My boyfriend played it yesterday, said it's definitely playable conditions, some mud but drying up.
Matt hatchew March 19 at 8:16am
Anyone down for a morning session?
Jon Camp March 15 at 10:26pm
How is the course looking and is the park accessable by car or do you have to park off dixie?
The fate is open. The road is still rough ad could be icy in the morning. It is pretty muddy but not unplayable muddy. However the really warm day tomorrow could make it VERY muddy but that is just a guess. There is snow on th shady holes and I woudl expect that for at Least another week as a minimum. Probably 2 with it not being too warm next week
thank you for the info
Miles smilez Campbell March 15 at 10:57am
Had anyone played holly this weekend? Wondering what the course conditions are like
Eric Trantham March 9 at 7:11pm
If anyone plays please post, wondering how much snow is out there after tomorrow.
Due to how the trees, the fairways, and the angle of the sun the snow that is out there will take a while to melt off. A lot longer than you would think...
Josh Childers February 28 at 7:06pm
Lost a orange nuke today playing the frozen flyers tourney. By the beach by boat launch. Don't know if name and number is on it

Not only did she look classy, but she looked comfortable as well. The beautiful bride-to-be Molly, her maid of honor, and her four bride's maids were all wearing Just Jen during the morning of the big day. While Molly was decked out in a white hoodie and matching pants, the bridal party was wearing black while they were at the spa.
As a gift to Molly, Just Jen also sent her a green Mrs. bridal hoodie similar to the one shown below, which read "Mrs. Mesnick", and matching sweatpants to enjoy after the wedding.

Used Digital Camera
Used Digital Cameras - Best Deals on Digital Cameras!
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Oana_Trofin]Oana Trofin
I found a website where they made the best selection for used digital cameras deals. They are practically new. I also found out that there is more to be know that how many megapixel the camera has before you buy it. This depends on what do you need it for. Therefore, for those who want to make only natural light photography, we recommend you buy a camera with the highest number of megapixels. For those who want to take good photos inside and outside, light and semi-darkness, standing or moving, or wishing that at least some of these requirements should be met, they must take into consideration several factors:
- Megapixel
- Optics
- Performances
- Additional Features
The technology is very advanced and a professional camera never loses value. It can always be upgraded to meet the most demanding requests.
Pixels are small squares of a certain color. When they are put next to each other both vertically and horizontally a picture is created. As the number of pixels is higher, the picture is clearer and it can be enlarged without you seeing the items that compose it. In conclusion, a large number of pixels can guarantee a quality digital camera.
Another element that ensures photo clarity is the camera's optical quality. Professional cameras with interchangeable objectives are the best. Here we can put what filters and what objectives we want.
People who prefer a particular brand are encouraged to choose products that are offered by that manufacturer. Everything starts with what you want from a camera: picture quality, viewing photos on the LCD screen, complete control (point & shoot), photo editing, printing and photo processing, distribution to other equipment, organization and archiving photos. Another important thing is the size: ultra compact, compact, medium and large. For big digital cameras use big lenses. If we're talking about a high performance camera, the biggest model should do.
Additional Features
Other elements that should be taken into account in your search: incorporated LCD screen size, battery type, the presence or absence of a docking station, memory size, the presence or absence of image stabilization, the ability to connect to a photo printer, video and sound capabilities, high photography opening angle and eventually, wireless file transfer.

Why didn't they shave in the 70's? Because women were hotter then.
This is hilarious
OMG, It's Annette Haven. I would declare her Miss America EVERY year. One of the sexiest women ever!!!!
@Anon: The film's called "Ladies Night" and the girl is Annette Haven.
Yeah, you guys are right, that bush is crazy. It makes her look like an adult female human.
5 stars !!!
very nice bush
Holy classic....anyone know the name of the movie this is?
i love being jacked
was shaving undescovered in the 70's?
Beautiful ie her and her regular adult female lower abdominal area (like that way of putting it), not the cocks, but she got them hard and got them off in very efficient fashion.
why didnt they shave in the 70s ...
Annette Haven is the best - wish they made porn like this now. Makes me cream every time.
That was amazing.
Nice one Max Damage lol. I'm sick of all those barbie dolls with shaved baby pussies. This vid IS a world heritage.
I totally remember this scene! I had a BETA-VHS copy of this back in the day. Thanks a bunch to the uploader! :D
what a beautiful clip
what a bush
Lovely hairy pussy and great the way she handled those cocks. Did the guys start of with stage fright though? Happy for them not to shave "down below" but the facial hair was horrid.

Film: Primer
"Look, everything we're putting into that box becomes ungrounded, and I don't mean grounded like to the earth, I mean, not tethered. I mean, we're blocking whatever keeps it moving forward, and so they flip-flop."Primer is a 2004 independent film, written and directed by Shane Carruth. (Also produced by Shane Carruth, starring Shane Carruth, edited by Shane Carruth, Shane Carruth as director of photography and with a soundtrack composed by Shane Carruth.) It was made on a minuscule budget of $7,000, most of which went towards buying film stock. The film is a character-driven drama about two engineers who unexpectedly create a Time Machine, and an examination of how Time Travel (and the power it confers) affects them and their friendship.Quite possibly the single nerdiest film ever made, and one that brings technical jargon to a new art form, it is also one of the most believable via its starkly straightforward presentation.The film opens with two engineers and entrepreneurs, Abe and Aaron, building electronics in Aaron's garage. After achieving some success with their latest project — a room temperature superconductor — they discover it has an unexpected side-effect: creating time loops. Everything they place inside the Box runs back and forth through time for roughly 1300 iterations.By scaling up the Box, they're able to use it as a means to travel into the past. The device has its limitations:
- As it does not laterally bypass temporal mechanics, but rather inverts its progression, they have to take The Slow Path: to go back in time two hours, one has to remain in the box for the same duration.
- As it alters time only within its own dimensions and during operation, and offers only one 'exit node' back into standard temporal progression, they can only travel back to the time that it was turned on, not before or after.
Some helpful, spoilerific, graphs:
- A graphical representation of how time travel in the Box works.
- Abe and Aaron's paths through time.◊
- The timeline(s) of the entire film.◊
This film provides examples of:
- Anachronic Order: Maybe! It's difficult to tell when a linear plot would be going back and forth in time as well.
- Chekhov's Gun: Aaron's headphones.; Rats in the attic.
- Check Point: Non-video game example; the Box's limit that you can only travel back to the point where it was turned on is similar to the function of a checkpoint.
- Clock Discrepancy: Abe suspects that the Box is a time machine, and he confirms this by placing a digital watch inside it for a minute. Upon removing the watch, it's about 21 hours fast.
- Clone Degeneration: Word of God for states that doubles created via Time Travel are imperfect copies. This is the reason for Aaron and Abe's earbleeds and the degradation of their handwriting when they begin altering their past. It may also account for their personality swaps.
- Corrupt Corporate Executive: Platz is hinted to be one. At first, it seems like he's just your typical Bad Boss but a bit of dialog earlier in the movie refers to an event that happened "last year" and one of the characters saying he knew someone with a legal background that knew about "cases like ours." Suggesting Platz took an intellectual property invented by the company (probably claiming that it was developed on company time with company resources, which is often covered in employment contracts.)
- Deadly Nosebleed: A symptom of improperly performed time travel. He leaped out of the box late (early from his perspective.)
- Gambit Roulette: When you've already seen events play out, you can make plans work that involve things that would normally be completely unpredictable, but sometimes even having seen it happen once doesn't mean it will happen the same way again.
- Gambit Pileup: Two Chessmasters, a Time Machine, and no need to worry about causing a Temporal Paradox. Things get complicated.
- Heterosexual Life-Partners: Abe and Aaron, but the events of the plot seem to push them apart.
- Homemade Inventions: The time machine.
- Hourglass Plot: Aaron starts off as a family man and rather risk-averse (note the scenes where he worries about needing eye protection and warns his wife against using the first batch of ice from the new fridge). Abe starts off unmarried and rather more devil-may-care. Over the course of the film, access to a Time Travel-powered Reset Button makes Aaron become more aggressive and willing to take risks, and he eventually leaves his family. Abe, on the other hand, becomes increasingly worried about the side-effects of time travel and oddly protective of Aaron's family.
- Ironic Echo: They/he took from his/their surroundings what was needed, and made of it something more. Overlaps with Meaningful Echo.
- Limited Wardrobe: Abe and Aaron's work clothes might as well be uniforms. At one point, Abe is shown sleeping in them.
- Meaningful Echo: They/he took from his/their surroundings what was needed, and made of it something more. Overlaps with Ironic Echo.
- Misapplied Phlebotinum: Abe and Aaron could have made money in a number of ways more efficiently than playing the stock market, though the movie shows that they go about it this way because they're trying to be as careful as possible about the impact they have on causality, as they don't know which rules apply to their type of time travel, and they're trying to hide their invention's existence until they fully understand it.
- Mistaken for Gay: The pair speculates that this is bound to happen, what with the extended time they spend by themselves in a hotel room waiting to come out.
- Narrator All Along: Hooded Aaron's phone message.
- No Ending: We don't know whether Abe's plan succeeds, what Hooded Aaron is doing, or what Aaron Three is doing.
- Prelap: An ice machine is triggered on a refrigerator, but the sound is a piece of construction equipment from the next shot.
- Reed Richards Is Useless: They invent a workable TIME MACHINE and the best use they can think of is to make money in the stock market?
- Reset Button: Various characters have back-up boxes going from the beginning of the story in case something goes wrong. Then they start folding up more boxes and bringing them back in the fail-safe one.
- Sdrawkcab Name: Abe Terger comes to regret his work at Emiba which leads to a mise en abyme.
- Second-Hand Storytelling: Half the reason the film is so mind screwy is because several key events are described rather than shown — and the characters doing the describing would rather be laconic than descriptive.
- Set Right What Once Went Wrong: The plot involves Aaron going back in time twice to save Abe's girlfriend, Rachel, from her psychotic ex-boyfriend. Thomas Granger, Rachel's father, is believed to have come back for similar reasons, but we never find out exactly what his motives were.
- Shown Their Work:
- They researched what would happen if you had two copies of the same cellphone. Turns out, some networks just look for the first one, and others ring both.
- Research into the physics of time has suggested that if a time machine was built, it would have at least one similar restriction as in the movie: it would only allow you to travel back to the point at which it was turned on.
- Spanner in the Works: Granger's surprise time trip (given the place and time he shows up, he's probably there to prevent a disaster resulting from the punch-Platts experiment). Abe tries to fix the Granger problem two different ways, once with one of the Thursday 5:00pm boxes (we see him running to get into place behind the house before the other Abe leaves the car), and then with his fail-safe box. The former trip left him with a quantum entanglement with Granger, since he had a 50/50 chance of using the same box Granger did — thus Granger lost consciousness whenever he got too close to Abe).
- The Slow Path: In both directions. To go back two hours, you have to sit in the box for two hours.
- Techno Babble: In the absence of any solid Real Life physics supporting time travel, their hypothesizing about the technicalities can't be anything else. However, the language of mathematics and engineering has been leveraged to maximize plausibility. Within the framework of the film a lot of work has been done to keep things consistent.
- Time Is Dangerous: Excessive time travel causes strange physical problems in the protagonists: mysterious bleeding from their ears and deterioration of their handwriting. Word of God is that this is also a case of Clone Degeneration.
- Time Machine: Closest it comes is to a Terminator-type, but it's really in a category all its own.
- Time Travel: The central premise.
- Time Travel for Fun and Profit: Abe and Aaron never got around to publicizing their time machine, because they were too busy using hourly time travel to make money day-trading stocks.
- Time Travel Tense Trouble: "Man, are you hungry? I haven't eaten since later this afternoon."
- The Ending Changes Everything: The second act of the film involves the use of very limited Time Travel. However, in the third act Abe learns that his friend Aaron has already used the time machine to change the past. So during the entire aforementioned second act, Aaron had actually been Aaron-from-a-week-in-the-future, manipulating current events for his own ends.
- Viewers Are Geniuses: The film leaves the viewer to figure a lot of the very complex plot out on their own.
- Wham Line: "I hope you're not implying that any day is unimportant at Cortex Semi." A Wham Line not for the words itself, but for the fact that Aaron says it even though Abe had failed to remember the line that prompted it, revealing that he was reciting the conversation from memory, too.. The lines before that also count, such as the fact that Abe has a secret backup time machine which has been running for most of the movie.
- Wrong Genre Savvy: Abe comes up with a very thorough plan to avoid causing Temporal Paradoxes, which turns out to be completely unnecessary (or not, depending on your interpretation of Granger's fate; the idea that he is suffering from temporal paradox — that the consequence of paradox is that the universe destroys you, rather than vice versa — was put forth by Carruth himself, whatever his opinion's worth). Still, points for trying.

I fly into Bangkok at 11:50pm and I would like to head to Trat. I saw that the Ekamai terminal has busses that go to Trat. Has anyone ever taken that trip? I was curious about the cost and the duration.
Also, I will arrive in Bangkok very late and will need a room. Does anyone know of a nice cheap place to stay near that terminal?

For my part, the sexism of the movie was annoying and making it less sexist would have been a plus. For my part some of the behaviour and coincidences were a bit too clumsy so making them less clumsy would have been a plus.
That I can agree with, although I didn't find
Star Trek
any more sexist than most popcorn movies, i.e. it was a little bit sexist. There are so many examples of actual, tangible sexism all around us that I can't conjure the strength to be up in arms just because Uhura spent some of her screen time as one of the main characters' love interest.
Uhura is the token female silly. It's all the other characters you need to look at when assessing how sexist the movie was. Plus if a sci fi franchise built on the premise of equality is as sexist as the average popcorn movie, don't you think that is a failure on the part of the writers?

Selena Gomez and on-again, off-again boyfriend Justin Bieber are among the latest celebrities to take on the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, which has surged in popularity over the past week as more stars continue to challenge others.
The campaign calls on people to share videos of themselves being drenched in ice water in a bid promote awareness for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Participants then "nominate" others to follow suit.
Gomez was urged to do it by both Ryan Seacrest and by BFF and fellow pop singer Taylor Swift, who had taken on the challenge at her 2014 MTV Video Music Awards rehearsal with a group of some two dozen people, including model and actress Jaime King.
"Accepted!!!! @ryanseacrest @taylorswift my whole team is donating!" Gomez said on her Instagram page on Saturday.
Gomez challenged Spring Breakers co-star James Franco, supermodel Cara Delevingne and Insurgent actress Suki Waterhouse, girlfriend of Bradley Cooper, to go next.
Bieber, who has dated Gomez on and off for more than three years and recently sparked reconciliation rumors with a cryptic photo of the two, shared his own Ice Bucket Challenge video on his Instagram page.
Using a saucepan instead of a bucket, Bieber challenged none other than President Barack Obama, as well as talk show host and comedienne Ellen DeGeneres and Undateable actor and Los Angeles comedian Chris D'Elia to follow suit.
Other celebrities who've also taken on the challenge recently include Guardians of the Galaxy actor Chris Pratt, who pre-gamed first, Food Network star Guy Fieri and rockers Jon Bon Jovi, who nominated band mates David Bryan, Richie Sambora and Tico Torres, and Bret Michaels, who completed it onstage at a solo concert. Check out their videos below.

Uggie the Dog Wears 18-Carat Gold Bone Bowtie at Oscars!
What a dashing dog!
Uggie, the canine costar of The Artist, looked his absolute best ascending the podium to accept the Best Picture Oscar alongside director Michel Hazanavicius, stars Jean Dujardin, Berenice Bejo and other cast and crewmembers.
PHOTOS: What all the stars wore at the Oscars
For his big moment, Uggie wore a custom-made Chopard bowtie of 18 carat gold and satin. Designed by Chopard's Co-President and Artistic Director Caroline Scheufele, the dog-boned shaped charm featured Uggie's name; now that Uggie's big night is over, the piece will be auctioned off with proceeds going to The Amanda Foundation, which helps homeless animals.
PHOTOS: Best and worst dressed at the Oscars
Sadly, the 10-year-old Jack Russell terrier (who is the constant companion of Dujardin's character, George Valentin, in The Artist) is retiring from film due to a mysterious neurological disorder, one he suffered through while shooting the film.
"It comes and goes," trainer Omar Von Muller told the Daily Mail recently. "It is a shame this has happened when he is getting the biggest success of his career, but we feel the best thing to do is to retire him after the Oscars."
PHOTOS: Oscar nominees' weird pasts
Director Michel Hazanavicius added to Reuters that his flick would "never have been the same movie without the dog."
Sarah Clifford helped train Uggie for the film and marveled about his dramatic skills. "There was a take where Uggie actually reached out and tried to pull the gun out of his (Jean's) hand with his mouth. He put his mouth on Jean's hand and started pulling his hand. We were so stunned. He wasn't told to do that."

Over the course of last year we undertook a fundamental reform of our overseas sales organization, outsourcing and organizational structure in our development division. We have reflected deeply on the special losses recorded in each of the past two years, and have managed to achieve some degree of success in improving our profitability as a result of the fundamental restructuring of the entire company.
The games market is facing a period of change that is coinciding with a transition to a new generation of hardware, but the increased diffusion of digital download contents and the regional expansion deriving from PC online games and mobile contents are steadily expanding the business opportunities available for Capcom.
Since 2013 Capcom has been concentrating on building its "60-month map" and "52-week map" systems, and has been making great efforts with improving the efficiency of our development division and enhancing the visibility of our personnel deployment. In the midst of a rapidly changing market environment, we have been returning to our fundamental strengths in creating the 'high-quality and interesting content' that form the basis of Capcom's creativity and ability to make the kind of products that will delight all its users to a greater extent than before.
Moreover, since last summer's global restructuring in our sales department, we have been pressing ahead with marketing initiatives and projections, derived from the marketing strategy committee meetings to achieve our aims in areas including: (1) our digital download strategy; (2) our mobile strategy; (3) our online strategy; and (4) our brand contents strategy.
In addition, we have built an entirely new structure that includes the changes in our development and marketing organizations and companywide reorganization in areas such as personnel and compensation systems.
For 2015, along with this new structure, we plan to achieve stable growth by seizing the business chances available to us in the steadily expanding game market.
Given that the market environment is evolving daily, we must strive to renew the spirit with which we need to continue to develop our business in a logical manner, both by eliminating irrational elements in our operation and by constantly keeping our sights upon Capcom's future.
I sincerely hope that we will continue to receive your support and guidance in our drive to create a Capcom that can continue to transmit new value perspectives to all our stakeholders.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
Kenzo Tsujimoto
