A beautiful and charismatic little cactus with soft, pettable spines (just stiff hairs really), but it's extremely sensitive to overwatering. Hence in my rainy part of the world (Louisiana), I wouldn't even consider keeping it outside, unless it's under a porch roof so that you can control how much water it gets. Better yet, keep it indoors by a bright window year-round. Pups can be easily "snapped" off and potted up.

Buy Buy Baby
Episode Reviews (8)
They totally messed it up!!!
It was Britney Spears for Christ's sake!! They could've done so much more with her, cudos to Britney for trying her best, she's the only reason Im giving it a 10 (well her and Sean). The writers missed an awesome chance, I mean Britney should've been in every scene of the show, the secondary plot line with Karen wanting a baby wast necessary, they could've exploted Britney so much more!
Karen wants a baby and goes about an interesting way of trying to get one. Grace is excited about her pregnancy. Out TV is taken over by a new company and re-vamped in a totally different way. Jack is assigned a co-host and Will helps Jack stay true to Ja
I didn't really like this episode. Up to this point, the episodes have caused me to have mixed feelings about the show going off the air. For the most part this season has been reminiscent of the earlier ones. After watching this one, I was reminded of why the show needs to end now. In addition Britney Spears was not funny. She was actually obnoxious.
This episode tell very much about Karen and finally getting her first step to divorce from Stan, while Jack and Will have a fight against the newly company that bought their TV Programming Station. Then the appearance of Britney Spears, as Amber Louise, in this episode in which she is radical lesbain, but it will have been much better if she would have kiss a woman, or at least, tell more people that she is lesbian, but still it was not that bad to watch....moreless
Why did I watch that?
I was very disappointed in this episode. The whole Karen trying to buy a baby was stupid and Wanda Sykes' comedic talent was wasted.
I admit that I actually like Britney Spears (or at least find her mildly interesting in the tabloids) but I couldn't get excited about this episode. And the big shock (that Amber Louise was a hard core lesbian) wasn't that big. Or that great.
It's bad when the funniest joke in the show was the running gag about Jack's Matthew McConaughey mug and calling his assisstant "Elizabeth." The main plot was boring and the secondary polot was boring. Overall a bad episode. Edit this reviewmoreless
Britney spears plays an Ultra-conservative-Right wing-Republican who comes to revamp Jack's OutTV show. However in reality she is a hardcore Lesbian, and tried to get Jack to sell out too. Horrible acting and writing in this episode.
Britney spears plays an Ultra-conservative-Right wing-Republican who comes to revamp Jack's OutTV show. She reveals that she is a hardcore lesbian but hides it/sells-out who she is so that she can have fame (being on the TV show), and she tried to convince jack to do the same. Jack (with Will's motivation) refuses to sell out who he is to remain on the show and as a result gets fired by the network.
this Episode was horrible. Really bad. Horribly written, i don't know what the writers were doing with britney. she has no ability to act and all of her lines were delivered Extremely poorly. the Dialog with her southern accent just wasn't funny. it was actually painful to watch. i think a lot of Britney fans tuned in for this episode, i wonder if they were surprised to see her look like Jessica simpson? anyways, if you missed this episode, count your blessings. this episode lacked the classic will and grace humor and wit.
Painful to watch
So Britney makes an appearence in this show and wow she was terrible! She should just stick to singing, that's what she's good at.
Anyways, Karen wants to have a baby now that Grace is having one so she hires the make up lady, Cricket, who was just applying make-up on Grace. Cricket agrees to it but Grace feels Karen is only doing it because she is jealous. Meanwhile Jack is forced to change his show to please the new network owners, who have also added a new co-host Amber Louise (Britney), but the show has to change so much that Jack is not pleased and Will backs him up.
The episode had its moments with Karen and Cricket, Jack and Will but with the arrival of Britney it just sucked. Back when they had Jennifer Lopez for a a few episodes that was still fun to watch, but Britney just wasn't a good idea.moreless
i hate this show and the only reason i watched it was because of britney.
that being said, now for my review...in this episode, brit plays a conservative christian who is jack's new talk show co-host after the thing gets bought out. meanwhile, karen wants to have a child and asks a makeup lady, played by wanda sykes, to be her surrogate...okay, this episode was overall...bleh... i mean it was okay, but i think they were trying to hard...brit she was alright, pretty funny too, i know that she was spoofing herself a bit...i think brit tried to hard, it was too over the top and not in a good way...but she was overal good...though i will say the sub-plot was slightly better...moreless
a coroportation buys out tv and trys to take it over with conservatives. meanwhile, karen is trying to buy another woman to have a baby for her.
Compared to last weeks hilarious episode, this was a stinker. After all the hype they put up for this episode, it wasn't all that interesting. Britney Spears played an unconvincing lesbian from the south and is Jacks new cohost. The only good thing about this episode was the subplot between grace and karen where karen pays a cosmetic woman to have a baby for her, and Grace confronts her and Karen admits the real reason is becasue her and Stan are having marital issues and she is thinking about leaving him. As depressing as that may sound it was actually quite humourous and karen made the show look good once again!moreless

Was Beverly a waste of space?

Re: Was Beverly a waste of space?
I've been on the fence about this issue, until I watched the episode "Suddenly Human".
He needs to re-discover his identity, make some connection with his roots.
I agree. Do what you can to accomplish that, Counsellor.
I don't think I can do anything, Captain.
Why not?
Troi's right. It's very clear that the boy does not respond well to women.
Wooooooow. It's one thing to be on the receiving end of matters your character has no control over, but it's entirely another when on the subject of gender, you are in complete agreement that women shouldn't be able to tackle an issue for no other reason outside of the fact that both of you are women. This isn't some alien kid either. This is a human kid who is about to be reunited with a "female" relative. Yet when Picard decides he doesn't want to do this assignment, Troi literally calls him out on it for being out of character. So if women say they can't do something because they're women, everyone is in complete agreement. But when Picard says he doesn't want to do it because he really doesn't want to do it, he's called out on it.
I am four episodes*into Season 4 and so far Crusher has done nothing but remove Borg bits from Picard, talk non-stop about Wesley and his father and spout bad jokes to sick children. You are definitely a waste of space.

GOP Big Enough For Both of Us
In one of the most impressive insults (not least for its brevity) I've heard from a politician in a long time, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) skewered New Jersey governor Chris Christie in Paul's Fox News Sunday appearance two days ago.
When asked by moderator John Roberts to respond to the senator's father, former Congressman Ron Paul's (R-TX) assertion that Christie "offers nothing," Rand Paul threw out this gem:
"What I would say is that there's room for people who believe in bigger government in our party."

John Liu To Endorse Bill de Blasio
[New York Mayoral Election 2013]
New York City Comptroller John Liu will endorse Public Advocate Bill de Blasio for mayor this afternoon at 2:30 PM at the Manhattan Municipal Building, 1 Centre Street, the campaign said.
"I am proud to endorse Bill de Blasio for mayor of New York City," John Liu said, in a statement. "Now more than ever, we need a mayor who will stand up for working and middle class families and Bill is that leader. He understands this city is strongest when every New Yorker – no matter where they live or where they come from, who they love or what they look like – has a fair shot. It is time Democrats unite behind Bill de Blasio and work together to ensure a progressive fighter wins in November."
"The child of immigrants, John knew hard work and education were the keys to success. A dedicated public servant for more than a decade, John has been a fierce advocate for the middle class and those fighting to escape the scourge of poverty," de Blasio said. "I look forward to working with John to make sure this city remains a place where every New Yorker can realize true opportunity."

This is how the cordon is, can't wait :)
RCOM or 'Realistic' 'Combat' 'Overhaul' 'Mod' is a mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Call of Pripyat that aims to bring in a greater emphasis on realism. Additionally porting 'Clear sky' Levels to 'Call of Pripyat' which have been filled with new A-Life and content.
Another new map in RCOM is featured in this update!
Posted by MacBradley on Mar 18th, 2011
The cordon is a level from the first two S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, with the version from Clear Sky making an appearance in RCOM. If you have played a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game prior to Call of Pripyat then you'll probably recognize this map as the entrance to the Zone itself. It serves a similar purpose in RCOM, but is also vital to the character of the Zone. All things in the Zone must start and end at the Cordon.
Normally for a STALKER enter the Zone, he'd have to find a way to get past the Military checkpoint. Fortunately for Major D. in Call of Pripyat, he has been sent into the Zone under the guise of a stalker by the Ukraine Government themselves, and has informed the Commander at the checkpoint of his arrival. As you play RCOM, you'll start your journey into the zone at the Military checkpoint in Cordon, instead arriving strait in the location of your primary objectives as in vanilla Call of Pripyat.
The Cordon is also the starting location for other STALKER's as well. As to be expected, it is populated mostly by rookies who don't dare to venture deeper into the dangerous Zone. This also leads to some veteran STALKER's who benefit of the needs of the naive rookies of the zone; they will charge high prices for goods, repairs, artifacts, and anything else they can benefit from selling.
On the flip side, being close to the exit to the zone leaves the benefit of weaponry, food, and supplies being easier to smuggle into the Cordon. While prices in the Cordon are often for the rich or foolish, just a glance at the availability of trader's stock is usually enough to leave the most seasoned veteran's of STALKER's salivating in envy.
The Cordon's location also can benefit the player. There are two important reasons the Cordon can serve as a "hub" in the RCOM Zone:
- Big named traders in the Cordon have power, money, and goods - all things which can benefit the player. In the Cordon there's opportunity to partake in trader's quests involving artifact hunting, deliveries/retrievals, and killing anything that might be hurting the trader's business.
- The Military checkpoint serves as a means of communication with the Ukraine Military, who can give secondary objective tasks.
The environment in the Cordon is probably the safest in the Zone. The weather is usually clear, there aren't many mutants, and there are plenty of STALKER's roaming around with high hopes. The Cordon is mostly inhabited by STALKERs, although some hostiles will occasionally show up.
Below are a few pics of the Cordon:
This is how the cordon is, can't wait :)
Is it CS Cordon or SOC?
Looks like CS. Would make the most sense too, since i guess the CS engine is closer to the COP one?
Its the CS Cordon.
Sounds like a epic mod, except for the hud but the overall mod looks cool.
What about the hud don't you like?
Will Sidorovich be able to sell you tools, as suggested by random NPCs in vanilla CoP?
The whole toolkit/upgrade system is so much different in RCOM that it is hard to answer that directly. The new maps means the whole economy needed built from the ground up, to insure all maps had proper gameplay purpose and balance.
DAMN!... can't wait anymore! =) sounds perfect
I need this mod.
Apologies for off-topic, but Joe, your avatar makes me burst out laughing every time I look at it. It's like this guy is fixing to do something... something really wicked... and soon.
The game should start at night. I'm sure Degtyarev wouldn't want anyone to know his affiliation with the military. Those by the way are some great ideas and the screens show some superb work. GJ and keep it up.
Starting at night is a good idea. I wonder if Major D. is going to have a quest involving information about his identity being linked, and having to...oh wait sorry, I'm trying not to leave spoilers. :)
Will the military be allies throughout the game?
The military so far is only present in the same way as as in Vanilla RCOM, outside of the Cordon base, and possible quests. They aren't roaming around like other a-life are; so you don't run into random military squads of 2-3 camping at fires and such like you see stalkers/bandits/freedom/duty doing.


text: GamesRadar - Immature. Wafer-thin plot. Dumb bro game. Just a long-list of dick-jokes. These were some of the criticisms thrown at Bulletstorm when it appeared back in February 2011. Didn't bother me. In fact, I really enjoyed all the creative swears and testosterone-driven plot. In a game about murdering virtual people for high-scores, having anything less than a dumb, foul-mouthed narrative would be pretty disingenuous. It just feels… right.

In this third-annual State of the Industry Report on Supermarket Video, SN found that total supermarket video revenues for 1993 topped $2 billion for the first time, greatly exceeding the $1.8 billion SN projected in last year's report. Because supermarkets have become a prominent part of the video business, video is playing a starring role in building ...

Hill Country Barbecue Launches Twangy Concert Series
Given how hot as it's been here lately, mythic, sun-dried places like the Texas hill country don't seem quite so far away. It helps that there's a new venue in town churning out Texas barbecue and music for the District's honky-tonk lusters.
First opened in Manhattan's Flatiron district, the Hill Country Barbecue Market began as restauranteur
Mark Marc Glosserman's brainchild in 2007, combining his love of southwestern food and Texas twang. Glosserman has since extended further south, staking a claim in D.C. that culminates Thursday night with a launch party for Hill Country Live, the venue/restaurant's concert series devoted to Texas' multifarious music styles. Tickets are $15 and include a downstairs performance by Austin roots rockers Heybale!
Since mid-March, Hill Country's new Penn Quarter location has featured a series of free or cheap concerts that highlight its American and roots music ethos. Thursday's launch marks the venue's shift toward a becoming base for Austin-flavored live music and culture—and, once a week or so, charging a bit more for the music. And while the Texas capital might be the "spiritual epicenter" of the Hill Country aesthetic (the venue even curated its own South by Southwest showcase this spring), Glosserman says he hopes that the venue will become a center for D.C.-area roots music, too.
This summer, Hill Country Live will present concerts by Houston multi-instrumentalist Carolyn Wonderland (June 9, pictured), San Antonio-based Emory Quinn (June 23), and Mainer Slaid Cleaves (June 27). See Hill Country's website for schedule and ticket information.

How to Deal With Teachers That Hate Your Guts
If you feel like there's a teacher that "hates your guts," here are a few things you can do to turn the situation around and encourage your teacher to like you instead.
1Let the teacher notice you in as many good ways as you can possibly do.Ad
2Always be on time. Teachers love that!
3Keep quiet. Teachers have a hard time with a loud class.
4Help the teacher with whatever he/she needs such as carrying materials to her class
5Have all the supplies you need with you for every class period.
7Always turn in all assignments on time. As said on step 6, teachers hate students who never bring their assignments or homework or are late to turn them up.
8Address the teacher respectfully as sir or ma'am ("Yes, sir.")
10If ALL else fails then sit near the back of the class. At least this will put some distance between you both.
11Ask the teacher for a list of her/his favorite books she/he read at your age.
12Make them a card and just leave it on their desk. Tell them you appreciate that they are your teacher.
13Most "mean" teachers are unhappy people. Sometimes it has nothing to do with you. They might feel that none of the students care about them so try to be nice.Ad
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- Remember that if your teacher really ignores you and you still respect the teacher don't try to change yourself to 'impress' them. The teacher probably is an unhappy person so don't beat yourself up for how the teacher acts towards you because there is nothing wrong with you. Just get on with your work and don't let the teachers rude behavior get to you.
- Finally, just remember that you won't have this teacher forever. If you've done your best to make them like you and it doesn't work, grit your teeth and try to survive until the course is done. Once you are through with the course, you should talk to the principal to make sure you won't have this teacher again.
- Tell your parents or school principal if any teacher ever hits, calls you names or throws things. That is not acceptable behavior. If nobody does anything-call the school board in your area. They are not allowed to abuse or touch you!
- Do the work, hand in assignments on time, and don't give the teacher any chance to find a fault in you.
- Don't act like you know better than them.
- Always be in uniform (if you are supposed to be).
- Remember, your teacher's views usually have nothing to do with you as a person.
- Don't be on websites that you are not supposed to if you are in a computer class.
- Act as if you're enjoying the class.
- Don't play laptop games in class - that is a pet peeve of most teachers.
- Do or make something nice for your teacher
- Try to be assertive in class
- A good book about this is "The Wednesday Wars" by Gary D. Schmidt. It is about a boy named Holling Hoodhood who has to deal with a teacher who hates him because of his religion. He has to survive the whole year with him. It is funny, well-written, and teaches some great lessons.
- Show appreciation. Drop a few compliments such as, "I like your teaching techniques, they're so helpful to understand!" No matter how moody your teacher is, he/she will still appreciate your thoughtfulness.
- Try for a course change.
- Don't seem to be ignoring them as this just gets them in a bad mood.
- Lots of 'mean' teachers act the way they do because they are insecure. If they feel that they can't control the class, they tend to be unreasonable and will say and do things that just don't make sense. With a teacher like this, be respectful and quiet during class and don't draw attention to a mistake the teacher has made (such as a typo on a test, unless you can't understand the question because of it), and you shouldn't have any trouble. If you do, it won't be your fault. It may help to talk to the principal about the issue, since these teachers will act completely different if they are outside of class or if someone is observing the class. The principal probably doesn't know how this teacher acts.
- If you have had a good relationship with the teacher in the past, bring it up! Try to make them happy! They will realize you are a student that cares about them and they will go easy on you. People change people. Maybe they will be nicer not just to you, but the whole class and you might just even boost their confidence. They get insecure just as often as you do.
- Talk to your parent. They might even talk to that teacher about it.
- Some mean teachers can be going through a tough time in their personal lives, so try to be as nice as you can to him/her.
- Never do anything wrong in that class or your teacher will remember that and be less inclined to like you for the rest of the year. Even if you might think that it might be only for a year, remember that your teacher talks about his/her students to other teachers, such as the ones you might get next year. This will cause another teacher to hate you even though they might have not seen you before.
- If the problem is getting too out of hand and he/she is being completely mean to you and breaking teacher code, talk to your principal and parents about it.

New recumbent bike trades handlebars for a joystick
- C.C. Weiss
- May 13, 2015
While they come in various forms, handlebars are a vital component on virtually every type of bike. From the standard 10-speed, to the cargo hauler, to the lean-back recumbent, a bicycle's handlebars provide a simple means of steering and control. As the name suggests, the Joystick Bike replaces the ubiquitous bars with a right-hand joystick, delivering precise control that makes riding a bike a little more like flying an aircraft or playing a video game.Read More

Mississippi-based lobbying firm opens Nashville office
Capitol Resources, a government relations and lobbying firm with a strong foothold in the South, is opening shop in Nashville and has hired former Tennessee Republican Party Executive Director Adam Nickas to oversee it.
Established in 2001 and based in Jackson, Miss., Capitol Resources also has offices in Alabama, Louisiana, Florida and Washington, D.C. The firm's partners are Clare Hester, John Lundy, Henry Barbour and former Congressman Chip Pickering.
Barbour is the nephew of former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour and a major player in national GOP political circles.
"Adam is an excellent fit for Capitol Resources," said Henry Barbour. "His leadership is proven and his drive is unquestioned. The GOP gains in the Tennessee statehouse were noticed around the country, and he will be a tremendous asset to our clients."
Nickas (pictured) said Capitol Resources has an "established reputation for excellent service to its clients" throughout the South.
"I look forward to helping our clients achieve their objectives and working closely with the leaders and members of the Tennessee General Assembly and the Tennessee Executive Branch," Nickas said.
A Germantown, Tenn., native and University of Memphis graduate, Nickas has worked on the campaigns of Senators Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker and the aforementioned Haley Barbour, while also contributing to a presidential campaign and Tennessee gubernatorial, congressional and legislative campaigns.
Nickas was named political director at the state Republican Party in May 2010 and executive director in 2011.

ABC Stands by `Sacred': Catholic League Puts Pressure on Sponsors
Burn, Timothy, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
The ABC television network will not pull the plug on its controversial new drama, "Nothing Sacred," despite intense pressure from religious activists that led two sponsors to quit the show.
A spokeswoman for ABC, a Walt Disney Co. subsidiary, said yesterday that the network is not worried about losing sponsorship and that no other advertisers have indicated they will quit the drama, which depicts a Catholic priest who questions his faith and has lustful thoughts.
"The show has been fully sponsored since the beginning and we expect it to remain fully sponsored," said the spokeswoman, who asked not to be named.
Under intense pressure from the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, American Isuzu Motors and Weight Watchers International this week withdrew sponsorship of "Nothing Sacred."
The League's protest campaign marks the latest salvo in an ongoing battle between Disney and religious groups that think the company is producing too much entertainment that goes against religious doctrine on abortion and sexuality.
Religious groups including the League and the Southern Baptist Convention were offended when Disney subsidiary Miramax produced such films as "Pulp Fiction" and "Priest."
Religious activists were particularly offended this spring when ABC hyped its sitcom "Ellen," in which the lead character, played by Ellen DeGeneres, announced she is a lesbian.
After complaining to Disney for more than a year about its entertainment, the SBC voted overwhelmingly to boycott all Disney enterprises and condemn the company as "immoral" and "gay-friendly."
"Sacred," now into its third week, depicts an inner-city priest named Father Ray who toils with his faith and is ambivalent about Catholic doctrine on issues such as abortion and celibacy.
"That is not the picture you think of when you think of Catholicism," said Tamara Collins, a research analyst for the League, which launched its protest campaign months before the show first aired.
"This program is clearly a political statement against religious teachings on sexuality, and we decided to fight it."
Weight Watchers spokeswoman Linda Carilly said her company pulled out after receiving "a tremendous amount of feedback from the public about the show, and we just decided it wasn't necessary for us to be on that program. …

Honestly the DM's we have are useless. They ask for opportunities, you pass them along and nothing gets done. Now the bonus goal has been increased to 15 and 20 percent. If you are running your route properly day in and day out there is no way to reach those goals.
#4703 Oct 13, 2013
Bonus program is a joke! Big winner are the region managers on up. As long as Carl Lee is drawing 2 million a year I will never bust my hump to make him any richer. He is responsible for me losing all my benefits it took me 30 plus years to get. He wasn't at Snyders when guys like me built the company and I'm sure he shed no tears for me while he cashes his 40,000 a week average paycheck. I will work for me and my families needs and that only. When he starts investing in me then I will give back. HE can start with giving us the 20% he promised. Until then he can suck eggs!
#4704 Oct 13, 2013
Carl is a great president, I told him on Friday at the golf course, after I beat him, lol, And by the way enjoy the lemonade I am sending you guys
#4705 Oct 13, 2013
u can't beat ur meat chump .. Go sell some Quito displays in the soccer mom van douche !
#4706 Oct 13, 2013
Well said , couldn't agree with you more! We will never get the 20 %. As far as the "bonuses ". It's nothing but a win, win for Snyders. I just wish more IBO's would see it that way.
#4707 Oct 14, 2013
the route was quoted to me at $4700 - they added some territory to me last decemeber, and was suppose to add to my route - all it has done is add fuel cost. I want out so bad, but no job has called me for an interview, let alone an offer

61 new items dont mean nothing if u dont get extra space for them and not discontinue items and replace with new
United States
#4709 Oct 14, 2013
I say that all the time u can get 500 new items but if u don't gain space into the stores then new items don't help but all they do is discontinue a few times and we get a few new times into the stores.
Saint Petersburg, FL
#4710 Oct 14, 2013
What are the 61 new items? Snyder, Lance products or new lines of product, like drinks? Are the 61 new items ones that are out there already in other areas of the country and are only "new" to your territory?
#4711 Oct 14, 2013
Soooooo ... after reading many of the comments on this thread, I'm assuming most of you wouldn't buy a route from S-L again? I mean, knowing what you all know now? I'm looking into buying a route in Ca and have become increasingly skeptical about the whole thing.
Come on, peeps. What would you do if you were in my shoes?
#4712 Oct 14, 2013
R U N , very fast, the other way
#4713 Oct 14, 2013
it isn't as bad as everyone says. If you can put up with the bullshit and get creative from week to week you can make a good living!
#4714 Oct 14, 2013
It's a good gig if you can sell and are not lazy like half the people here. I hope you didn't come from a union or something like that.
#4715 Oct 14, 2013
You are a pathetic loser.....
I would like to buy you for what you are worth.......And sell you for what you think you are worth.
#4716 Oct 14, 2013
I got all the sheets for them right here, brand new items. Krunchers pieces (like Soh Pieces, but made with corn, cape cod popcorn etc...
Saint Petersburg, FL
#4717 Oct 14, 2013
My Dad was a union man and I was for most of my early life. F... Y.., As..h...! Who do you think you are. Go to hell sucker.
#4718 Oct 14, 2013
You serious ? If you are you will have to look at route average , miles to drive , warehouse hours. Cost of route, etc.
#4719 Oct 14, 2013
all depends on the area u buy you can make a decent living .. But the crack staff management are always working against u !
#4720 Oct 15, 2013
what part of California are you in bud? I lived out there for 8 years - at the time, I can almost 100% positively tell you, no stores had any Lance products in them - I am not to sure about SOH stuff, maybe Safeway, Albertsons did. But if you are in the northern part of the state (Sacramento) or above - although their is potentional there I would be real suspect. I know they have been look for a DM out there for 4+ mths. to live out there you need to be well above the $10k a week route average to survive. keep your fuel cost at a min, so don't buy into a huge radius. with the "18%" on grocery items... and the PA - don't buy into it unless its 10k or above

As of Wednesday, January 29, 2014
© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
COVINGTON — Newton County resident Jacob Eastman was longing for the four-wheel drive vehicle he has at home Wednesday morning as he sat in his company SUV, stranded on Ga. Highway 212 in DeKalb County.
Eastman, 31, who lives with his wife, Stephanie, in the Butler Bridge Road area of Newton County, had been stranded on the roadways for 17 hours when he spoke with the Citizen by cell phone Wednesday morning. He'd had nothing to eat or drink during that time, and little to no sleep.
Eastman said he was headed home about 4 p.m. Tuesday from work in Alpharetta when he first became stranded in his company's small SUV on Interstate 285. He said it took him nine hours to go from Exit 10 to Exit 4, with stranded vehicles all over the roadway.
Eastman said he saw no evidence that transportation officials in metro Atlanta had tried to prepare for the coming snow and ice.
"They knew it was coming and none of the roads had been salted," he said. "They did nothing. … There was not a single salt truck on the interstate."
Luckily, Eastman had filled up his SUV with gas Tuesday morning and was able to keep his cell phone charged.
"I've got a little less than half a tank now," he said Wednesday, "and I've only gone about 40 miles."
Overnight Eastman said he tried to get some sleep in the car, but it was difficult with the lights and horns of other vehicles. He said he was awakened at about 5:30 Wednesday morning by officers with the Georgia National Guard.
"They were knocking on windows this morning, but they didn't have anything with them," he said. "They didn't have any blankets or water; they were just asking if people were OK."
Throughout the night Eastman said he passed by a school bus that had hit six cars; he saw numerous tractor trailer trucks spin out and block the roadway.
"That's the thing," he said. "Once a semi gets going, they've got traction, but getting going is a problem. They kept spinning out and jack-knifing."
Eastman said he was able to make some progress and reach Ga.Highway 212 in DeKalb County Wednesday morning, but once there, he encountered another obstacle on the two-lane road. He described Ga. 212 as a "solid ice rink."
"Everybody's spun out; I can see probably 23 or 24 cars right in front of me spun out."
Eastman said his vehicle had also skidded across the road. He was stuck next to a Clayton County Police patrol car. At that point, he said, he wasn't sure how he would get going again.
"I don't know what to do," he said. "I'm really tempted to walk. I'm so ready to be home."

"Do you have anything useful, Lin?" Meg asked impatiently. "You've likely more ideas than we." This Lin bitch was great at making you practically beg for what you wanted.
"Do you have anything useful, Lin?" Meg asked impatiently. "You've likely more ideas than we." This Lin bitch was great at making you practically beg for what you wanted.
"I just said. Gods, pay attention. I think we should go hit up the local triad dives, 'cause this guy sounds like the sort of person they'd know. I'm good at getting guys to talk to me." She smiled. "And even you lot should be able to make some triad goons talk. If they know anything, we'll know, and if they don't, then I guess dude's not triad and we're kind of fucked." Lin shrugged. "Or, I suppose, we can go dig around the archives for a while and waste our time."
Do you like big boobs? Dragons? Ninja? Martial arts? Wizards? Then click here and make all your wildest dreams come true!!
"Lead the way," Meg replied.
Ganzorig had shown up a month later, wearing a new loincloth (since he had damage his last one) and a new Cloak of Charisma. He flaunted this new cape by striking extreme poses. He did them with such speed that the cloak trailed behind him, and for a moment each time, it would look like the wind was blowing it. "Archives are for dorks." He suddenly lunged forward into a deep stance, with his chin resting on a relaxed fist. "Besides, I can't even read."
In an instant Ganzorig was standing next to Lin with his hands on each side of his temple, his fingers splayed, his spine at an almost painfully uncomfortable angle, and every muscle in his body flexed. "So are these 'dives' ritzy or what?" He got tired and started to just stand normally. "Lets just go to the best one and search for- uh.. clues.."
"I'll go where ever. Let's just get on with this." The sooner they could get this done, the sooner they could hopefully ditch the "helpful" Lin. She was missing Hui and how pleasant she was. "I didn't realize they wouldn't just tell us if someone like that had been causing trouble lately." Or turn into crazy squid ladies...not that she desired that to happen. "Or get it from them in other ways." She subtly flexed an arm muscle. "The dives sound like they'll be...a little more fun." Although not as well endowed as Lin or Meg, Myfanwny would have been considered a high prize in her own lands. "I'd like to see if the men of this country are as formidable as those of my own," she smirked.

Updated 4/6/13: Please Critique
"Some are most aren't, tiger." Lin smiled at Ganzorig.
"Well, right off hand, there's a brothel here in the market district; Baihu - the Lingzhu Siwang run that place. Can you believe I found that guy I mentioned there? Seriously? Girls weren't even half as good looking as me. I mean, like, that's kind of a given, but you know, still." She proceeded to return to topic. "And the Heise She usually are up to stuff at the Arena, but I don't think we really want to cause a scene there... I also know, like, at least five or six taverns we could hit in the commons, plus like I mean, obviously, if you wanna dig around for a drug lair or somethin'." Lin gave a shrug and turned to the Crab again. "I guess it's up to you, Righteous One?"
Do you like big boobs? Dragons? Ninja? Martial arts? Wizards? Then click here and make all your wildest dreams come true!!
Akaiji seemed somehow gratefull for Ganzorig's sudden throwing of shapes, and added his own. Very pleasant. Most enjoyment. Perhaps he'd make a crabperson out of the strange little man yet.
Back to buisness.
The giant crustatian didn't really 'get' the idea of such dives, but did know that they involved money and females. They were a little bit similar to the concubines he had encountered from time to time. Somehow, he got the feeling that flattening the place wasn't really an acceptable option, and thus was confused about how to procceed.
"This one has not yet encountered an honourable perverted primate with intentions to breed with a member of my own honourable crabular race, honourable good lady-human Lin." As always, his voice had no hint of either disgust or humour. "Thus, I question what good my participation will be in such a situation."
"Summary; Our honourable targets should be of adequate wrong-doing and condemnable behaviour for us to guiltlessly flatten. Should a 'drug lair' or 'prossy dive' meet those requirements, it might be wise for us to first attend an affiliated bar and..."
Another barrage of pipe cleaners into Lin's face. Maybe he was just making sure?
"-Shake down? Is that the correct terminology?-"
"It is this one's recommendation that we find an affiliated bar and shake down it's honourable affiliated residents to insure we may strike swiftly upon the heads of the correct enemy afterwards."
Last edited by Regantor; 11-05-2013 at 07:39 PM.
Lin led the way, taking her fellows towards one of the seedier areas of the market district. Needless to say Lin - or rather two very large aspects of Lin, got a lot of attention. Equally needless to say, so did the giant crab.
Eventually Lin took them all into an alleyway, largely deserted and away from prying eyes, speaking in a hushed tone. "Okay, look, we're almost there, but, like, I realised. Um..." She looked uncharacteristically unsure. "Well, uh... um... honored servant?" She turned towards Akaiji. "Don't you think you might, uh, make it kind of hard to investigate? I mean, most of these triad types are pretty dumb, but I don't think they're that dumb. They'll know something's up. I'm good at getting guys to talk," she smirked, "but, like, I'm not that good. Maybe it's best if you wait down the corner, or something, and only come in if you hear a fight break out? I mean, there shouldn't be any trouble unless these two mess things up for me. I've done this sort of thing before."
Oh, Lin. But, hey, she did kind of have a point. Hard to get criminals to talk when they know they're selling someone out to a crabcop.
Do you like big boobs? Dragons? Ninja? Martial arts? Wizards? Then click here and make all your wildest dreams come true!!
"If we purchace and remove the insides of a eight meter wide manned rickshaw that has an adequate pull-down cannopy, stealth should not be a problem." Akaiji informed her, entirely without humour. "Alrough... Upon further consideration, this one is concerned that rickshaw pullers are infrequently as well shaped and maintained as you are, hourable and blissfully visaged human woman Ms.Shao. I'm afraid that you may spoil the disguise despite the effort."
"That sounds like a big hassle for nothing. Its not like anybody would understand what you're trying to ask them." Ganzorig placed a hand on the crab's carapace. "You just wait a moment, this won't take long. I'll bring you back a cup of algae or somethin'."

The current contrast enhancement algorithms occasionally result in artifacts, overenhancement, and unnatural effects in the processed images. These drawbacks increase for images taken under poor illumination conditions. In this paper, we propose a content-aware algorithm that enhances dark images, sharpens edges, reveals details in textured regions, and preserves the smoothness of flat regions. The algorithm produces an ad hoc transformation for each image, adapting the mapping functions to each image's characteristics to produce the maximum enhancement. We analyze the contrast of the image in the boundary and textured regions, and group the information with common characteristics. These groups model the relations within the image, from which we extract the transformation functions. The results are then adaptively mixed, by considering the human vision system characteristics, to boost the details in the image. Results show that the algorithm can automatically process a wide range of images—e.g., mixed shadow and bright areas, outdoor and indoor lighting, and face images—without introducing artifacts, which is an improvement over many existing methods.
