I love this fireplace!
By Marti
from Houston, Tx
About Me Midrange Shopper
I love this fireplace! It looks great in my county kitchen, just the look I wanted, it also heats the living room. The thing that caught my eye right away is that it heats up to 1000 sq. ft. I had been researching fireplaces, and all the rest heated around 400-600 tops. It was reasonably priced, although not any cheaper than elsewhere I looked. It came with all the parts, does everything it claims, and if I need to I would buy another, and would recommend it to a friend.

About Me High-end Shopper
I bought a new house and discovered that the family room had been an addition and there was next to no heat in the room. I brought in heating experts and there was no way to put heat in the room without tearing out the walls and rebuilding. One of the contractors suggested we look into the electric stove. It is wonderful. The room is heated and comfortable and the problem was solved. Thank You!

So the base Internet Explorer (IE) Virtual PC (VPC) images were due for a refresh and I signed up for the job. I thought it would be best to not only simply patch the images and place them up on the site, but to also reassess how we could optimize the images and options available. Previously, there were three separate Windows XP images (IE6, IE7, IE8) and one Windows Vista SP1 with IE8 image. To optimize, I decided it would be best to have the following images:
It is very easy to duplicate the images and then just update the version of IE you'd like to keep. I'd be happy to accept feedback on what you think of this new structure of VPC images available. Do you care about having the various operating systems and versions of IE available, or do you only care about working with the various versions of IE?
Download the images
That structure sounds pretty good, great work :)
I really wish they didn't expire! It's annoying having to redownload new images every so often.
Please, please, please stop these things from expirying. It's super annoying having to download and setup 3 virtual machine images every month. I've just downloaded a set that will expire next month already.
The Vista/7 images run far too slowly for me, I'm using the XP image 3 times with IE6, 7 and 8.
I really can't see the point in them expirying, we just download them again.
I want a multi-language version XP IE6 images, not just English.
We can't give you images which never expire for legal purposes. Even though you keep downloading them, you can't permanently save your changes. There are two options to have a never expiring XP image:
1) Activate your own XP image
2) Use XP mode with a copy of Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate
www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx has the current batch expiring on August 09, 2011. Will they be re-released?
Hi. First off, the images are really handy, so many thanks.
However it would be great if they were updated a little earlier. It's been a while since i used them, and my XP image had expired, so I went to the site only to find that the new XP image expires tomorrow, which isn't particularly helpful.
We are re-releasing an updated copy of the XP image, but there has been some delay in getting it online. We hope to have this up within the week. In the mean time, please see my comment on this thread from 7-25-2011 on how to get a non-expiring XP image.
The updated Windows XP image is now online. David Tesar

Now that you're grown up, sugary cereal is a no-no. Sugary face cleanser, on the other hand, gets a resounding yes. Infused with lemongrass and chamomile, this cleanser gets rid of dirt and oil while gently exfoliating layers of skin with nonabrasive sugar. (The alpha hydroxy acids in raw sugar gently buff away dead layers and excess oils without stripping your skin of its natural moisture.) You'll immediately notice how refreshed your skin feels, not to mention how good the clean, subtle scent of zesty lemon smells. Unlike Lucky Charms, this sweet stuff is good for you.
At first when I recieved this in my box I was surprised how tiny it was. When I started to use it, I wasn't able to get anything out because the product had crystilized but I just put some water in it to soften it. When using it, it never foamed for me but the texture was great and it left my skin smooth. Also the smell is awesome!5

Shazam-style audio recognition for TV shows coming to Zeebox
Audible Magic has told Pocket-lint that it is talking to the maker of Zeebox, the UK social TV application, to bring its Shazam-style audio recognition software, Live TViD, to the platform.
Live TViD is a digital fingerprinting technology that listens to a brief snatch of the audio of a television broadcast, recognises its source and then presents that show's information in as few as 3 seconds, including name and details gleaned from Rovi's vast metadatabase via Rovi Cloud Services. At present, it works with over 150 networks, including live broadcasts and time-shifted content, and Pocket-lint saw it in action at CES in Las Vegas to impressive effect.
The company believes that the system will improve the experience of social TV viewing applications: "App developers often need to synchronise their app to what a viewer is watching on TV," it says. "Audible Magic's Live TViD service provides a simple way to do that in just a few seconds, even if it is a live event or a never before broadcast show."
The first application to announce its use of Live TViD is Miso, a US-based social TV platform for iPhone, and there are a few other apps in the States that offer similar features, such as IntoNow. However, it is Zeebox's interest in the service that excites us here in the UK.
Jay Friedman, Audible Magic's vice president of Marketing and Customer Support, explained to us that it is in talks with numerous partners around the world, including Zeebox: "We are in talks with them," he said when we mentioned former BBC iPlayer chief Anthony Rose's new project.
And should those talks be successful, it should be easy to implement into the existing Zeebox "augmented TV" app, as the Live TViD service can be integrated "using an easy to use API".
So, in future, rather than scrolling through the electronic programme guide on Zeebox and selecting the show you're watching (in order to post your interest socially) it should automatically guess what channel you're on, even if you don't use its remote control functionality. Sweet.

Oklahoma (4-1, 2-1); Last week: 4; The Sooners once against asserted their supremacy in the Red River Rivalry, trouncing Texas, 63-21, Saturday and the score doesn't do justice to how dominant Oklahoma was at the Cotton Bowl this weekend. Landry Jones threw for more than 300 yards for the first time in his last eight games, became the school's all-time winningest quarterback, Trey Millard had a career-high 119 yards and Damien Williams' 95-yard run was the longest in the rivalry's history.

Detroit mayor: Vacant housing project coming down
DETROIT (AP) — Detroit's mayor says a now-vacant housing project where singers Diana Ross and the Supremes lived before becoming Motown superstars will be demolished.
Mayor Dave Bing made the announcement Thursday about the massive Frederick Douglass Homes complex, formerly known as the Brewster-Douglass housing project.
A $6.5 million federal grant will pay for demolition and soil remediation that is expected to pave the way for redevelopment on several city blocks. Demolition could begin early in 2013.
Bing says "it's going to take us ... the better part of a year to get everything down."
Known to most Detroiters as the Brewster projects, the decades-old complex has been vacant since the last families were relocated in 2008 due to safety concerns. It consists of brick condo-like units, six-story buildings and four 14-story towers

Customer Ratings & Reviews
Rated 4.9 out of 5 by 68 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by danni The kitties like this food! I feed 3 feral cats outside and this is my go to food for them and they love it! I chose duck because some may have sensitive stomachs and duck is easier on the stomach than chicken or turkey or fish. 2 of my own cats have stomach sensitivities and I feed them rabbit. The ferals' coats have improved and they overall just really like it! They always come back for more! (I also feed them the blue wilderness wet food as well!) December 17, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by strings Great No Grains My cat has tried 3 varieties of Blue Buffalo Wilderness grain-free dry cat food. He likes them all. The kibble is a good size - the little life-source bits are a little harder to get hold of and I find them on the floor or around his dish. I like the protein content and although there are other brands that have a higher content, they also come with higher fat and calorie count. Since my Maine Coon mix is rather large already, I have been searching for a quality food that he likes and will not pack on the pounds. All the BB varieties have calories per cup under 400. We have even tried the Weight Control and it is just a good as the others. Blue Buffalo is an all around winner. March 23, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by dshel27 Great Product! I feed Blue Buffalo Wilderness Duck Recipe Dry Cat Food to my cats and they love it. I have one cat who is diabetic and one who has irritable bowel syndrome and they both have done so much better after I switched them to this product. July 26, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sandra4 Not for big housecats I am picky about what my cats eat and this is the best food I could find nutrition wise. I did not find the Duck flavor to be strong smelling as other reviewers did. My 2 cats were really excited as soon as I let them sniff the just opened bag and meowing for it, smelled wonderful to them. They started gobbling it down. I noticed they could not crunch it but swallowed it whole. The kibble is very small and my housecats are large..14 & 17 pounds. The kibble is approx. size of a worn pencil eraser and large cats can't crunch it, so after 2 days they would not eat it, they opted for a brand with larger kibble but not near the nutrition. I am really disappointed as this is a high quality dry cat food. If your cat is small, or for very young cats this is an absolutely perfect food. Review given 4 stars because of the small kibble. February 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chris1 My cat loves this product My cat gets super picky and tires easily of foods but this one he absolutely loves! I try to get smaller bags of different flavors so he has variety. September 3, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Leslie52 Healthy for your cat I switched to Blue Buffalo dry cat foods because my cats doubled their weight in one year while on Iam's. Since the switch the cats have lost a couple of lbs. Nice and slow just as the vet recommended. My cats love the Duck formula and I love that it is high protein and grain free. Thank you Mr.Chewy for offering these high quality foods! July 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by rissy both my cats love duck since i try feeding them duck in wet version they hate it but they like it in dry they like it more then chicken too. alot of money out of my pocket but its worth seeing my 2 girls happy :) October 18, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bruin My cat loves this! My cat is very finicky and he loves this food! I feel the ingredients are wholesome and the best for him. October 10, 2013

Have grown this outside year-round in a large container (40 degrees lowest temp.) getting 4 hours of morning sun only for the past 4 years. It performs well, but does require lots of water and lots of spraying with insecticidal soap to control whiteflys/aphids/mites (as do all tropical hibiscus). Over-fertalization causes leaves to turn yellow and drop, which leads to the branch needing to be severely pruned back. I can prune this shrub anywhere between March - August in my area as needed, but the plant looks best when pruned on March 1. Got to be willing to put in the maintenance to enjoy.

Thirlwell: "In [my novels] Politics and The Escape, these grand themes of history and politics were mischievously seen as equivalent to more apparently minor problems like sleeping arrangements in a threesome, or premature ejaculation.

Portfolio Update: Two Upbeat Alternative Energy Investment Ideas
The Roen Financial Report Paradigm Portfolio has moved off its record highs reached this summer, but is still smartly up. This select portfolio has gained 42.7% since inception after accounting for additions, removals, and rebalancing*.
Two promising alternative energy stocks are being added to the portfolio this month, one a key solar and smart grid player, and the other working in wind and transportation. Also, two companies are being recommended for removal.
The Paradigm Portfolio fell 7.3% since the July update, at which time the portfolio reached an all-time high of 50.0% gains. Since inception, the portfolio is now up 42.7%, a 21% annualized returns. These gains are on par with the S&P 500 index, but lag the NASDAQ by about 7%.
When looking at individual stocks in the Paradigm Portfolio, about 90% of the holdings are showing gains. Of the 33 companies that are up, 30 achieved double-digit growth, and 10 have gains greater than 50%.
By far the best performing stock is the innovative solar installer SolarCity (NASDAQ:SCTY), up a spectacular 202% after rebalancing. Solar City was priced at $12.98/share when it entered the portfolio at the beginning of 2013, and is now trading at around $50/share.
The poorest performing stock is the wind turbine and tower equipment company Broadwind Energy (NASDAQ:BWEN), down a disappointing 51.2%. The company has variable earnings, but exhibits improving cash flow, low debt and stable sales. We believe the long-term story is still positive for this company, however Broadwind has been put on a watch to monitor developments that could exasperate its losses.
Portfolio Update
Two companies are being added to the portfolio this month-one services the solar industry and one provides wind and rail products. Conversely, two companies are being removed, one due to its flagging financials, and the other because of a change in its business sector.
Two Encouraging Investments
Fairchild Semiconductor Intl. (NASDAQ:FCS) is a California-based company that manufactures a wide array of semiconductor products, including a strong line of solar inverters and power management equipment. Designed for consumer and industrial applications, its products range from diodes to voltage regulators to battery management devices. The company is considered undervalued at current trading prices, has excellent free cash flow, and exhibits good relative strength compared to other small cap companies. All this, combined with a very strong long-term outlook for the solar industry, makes this a perfect candidate to add to the portfolio.
The diversified product and service company Trinity Industries Inc (NYSE:TRN) operates in several industrial sectors, including energy and transportation. Trinity is one of the leading manufacturers of structural wind towers, and provides logistical and transportation services for delivering wind towers to job sites. In addition to wind, Trinity manufacturers rail cars and rail car parts. This mid-cap company has solid sales and excellent annual earnings growth. We estimate Trinity to be trading at fair value, and believe there is steady upside potential from here.
Portfolio Removals
Waste-to energy company Covanta Holding Corp (NYSE:CVA) is being recommended for removal from the Paradigm Portfolio. The company has a high debt rank, and has seen a drop in its quarterly earnings. We consider the stock to be overvalued at current levels, so we believe it is a good time to realize the 27% gain that the company has achieved.
Thor Industries Inc (NYSE:THO) is being removed from the portfolio because the company no longer has an alternative energy segment. When Thor Industries was added to the Paradigm Portfolio, it had three commercial bus divisions that offered a wide range of public transportation options. One of the divisions, Eldorado National, was a leading manufacturer of alternative fuel buses, including natural gas and hybrid diesel. These divisions have since been sold off, and the company is now exclusively in the RV business. The stock has performed well for the portfolio, up 40.3% since January 2013.
Alternative Energy Investment Prospects - Bumpy Ride Ahead
Though long-term prospects for alternative energy investments remain strong, it is likely that the recent pullback which began earlier this year will continue. As the chart shows, the Wilder Hill New Energy Global Index (NEX) has started a technical correction, having formed two lows since coming off its highs reached in March 2014. As a corollary to what happens in an up market, it is not unusual for an index to attain three or four lows beyond each previous low before it begins to turn around. The index also crossed its 200 day moving average in September, a condition which may hold for some time.
Despite the bumpy ride alternative energy investors are likely to see in the near future, we still believe that the long-term prospects of solar, wind, smart grid and other green investments look very promising. The principal downward drag on the sector, persistently low natural gas prices, and now dropping oil prices, is liable to continue. However, the boom in alternative energy installations persists and huge growth is projected to continue. Investors willing to remain in green energy for the long-haul should be handsomely rewarded.
*Hypothetical gain from portfolio recommendations. It should not be assumed that recommendations made in the future will be profitable or will equal the performance of the securities on this list. For an explanation of how hypothetical returns are calculated, please see the Returns section under How Investments are Picked in the Roen Financial Report User Guide.
Danger Ahead For Alternative Energy Mutual Funds And ETFs?
(click to enlarge)Green Mutual Fund Returns Falter
Returns for green mutual funds have slid as of late. Longer term, however, alternative energy MFs are still showing strong gains. All MFs are in positive territory for the past 12 months, and 6 out of 14 funds are up double digits. Three year returns have faired even better, showing an annualized return of 14.3% on average.
Short term, however, almost all the funds have given up a significant amount of their recent gains. For example, Firsthand Alternative Energy (MUTF:ALTEX), the MF with the best one-year returns, gave up 6.1% of its gains in September. In fact all MFs are trading down in the past month, and 11 out of 14 funds are in the red for the past quarter... [Read More]
Alternative Energy ETFs Lower Gains
Alternative energy ETFs are down substantially from the levels they were at earlier this year. ETFs are up over 9% on average in 12 months, but this is much below the 28% average gains ETFs had in June, and the 65% average annual returns ETFs were seeing in November 2013. All ETFs are down for the month, and 15 out of 17 show losses for the quarter.
The ETF with the best one-year return is Guggenheim Solar (NYSEARCA:TAN), up over 30% in the past 12 months. This is not surprising, considering TAN holds many high-flying solar stocks, including SolarCity (NASDAQ:SCTY), Enphase Energy (NASDAQ:ENPH) and SunPower (NASDAQ:SPWR)... [Read More]

The Western Ireland region
Letterfrack village is an enchanting Quaker village renowned for its live traditional Irish music, with a great choice of places to eat and drink, with three pubs, an award winning restaurant or dine in the elegance of the Rosleague Manor Hotel. Planned and unplanned traditional music sessions a feature.
Why not have a picnic in the park, the village has a well stocked supermarket with deli food counter for take away lunches. Fishing is available from the local pier, from where you can take a boat trip, to fish or look for dolphins. Don't forget your souvenirs from "possibly the most interesting craft shop in the west" located beside the pier.
The entrance to Connemara National Park is a five minute walk away. There are some lovely walks including a track all the way to the top of the Diamond Mountain, which is suitable for the most inexperienced hill walker, well worth the effort for spectacular views over Letterfrack village, Connemara self catering cottages and Kylemore Abbey.
Letterfrack is home to the GMIT Furniture College, an internationally renowned furniture design college. A visit to the permanent exhibition in the college is well worth a visit. Small library with internet access. Families and children will enjoy the village with premises being child friendly. Nature and art workshops are held twice weekly in the National Park as well as talks on Connemara Ponies, Connemaras History, Flora and Fauna to mention just a few.
Beside Connemara National Park and Letterfrack village (pubs with music, restaurants, supermarket). Close to Kylemore Abbey, Clifden, beaches, scuba diving, golf, fishing, island visits, boat trips, craft shops, several festivals take place in the area during the summer months.
Discover the local history, culture and heritage of the sea and country life or visit the Country and Sea Life Centre in Derryinver, an ideal visit for all the family, which has a tea room serving home made food overlooking Derryinver Bay. From here book your tickets for a trip aboard the 'Queen of Connemara', with an enclosed seated lounge and an open upper deck. The tour takes you along the shores of the Connemara National Park with large varieties of sea birds and perhaps a seal or two.

Yes, it is basically the electrostatic charging method used in Xerography. A charged wire over the film with a grounding plate underneath. The film passes between the two while a corona discharge takes place through the film. The top surface facing the discharge wire is then given a tooth that allows hydrophylic coating.
This charge, if done properly, will last about 24 hours or less. I've coated within 24 hours of the charge and also in-line. Just remember that the corona discharge may appear faint, even in the dark, but is high in UV and will fog film and paper.

Equal-opportunity offenders play it safe in 'The Campaign'
"The Campaign"
Rating: R
When: Opens today
Where: Wide release
Running time: 1 hour, 30 minutes
We're used to politicians talking out of both sides of their mouths. "The Campaign" is a political comedy that attempts that feat.
It's a rude and crude farce that takes broad swipes at the political system and the people who manipulate it. It's not subtle about attacking those alleged election-buying billionaires the Koch brothers (called the Motch brothers here). The campaigners themselves are basically puppets — one a crass, lazy Democrat given to giving in to his basest instincts, the other a startlingly ill-informed Republican whose idealism gives way to a cynical makeover to make him more presentable to the North Carolina voters he's appealing to.
And the voters themselves are ranting, red-faced rubes who can't stop fulminating long enough to realize that calling the other guy's pug dogs "communists" is about the silliest thing ever.
But this R-rated comedy, directed by Jay Roach, tries to have it both ways. It straddles the "fair and balanced" fence, making the naive, effeminate Republican (Zach Galifianakis) an idealist backed by the evil Motch brothers (Dan Aykroyd and John Lithgow, doing a "Trading Places"-evil-rich-siblings thing), and the Democrat (Will Ferrell) a boozy, womanizing cynic whose idealism evaporated in high school.
The worst thing about the Republican is his stupidity. Galifianakis makes Marty Huggins, a Hammond, N.C., tour guide who is nothing but a disappointment to his racist, vile dad (Brian Cox), likably daft. The plump, prancing Galifianakis makes Marty the sort of guy you'd love to take to Chick-fil-A. Or not. The film's earliest comic shock is when we see he has an equally plump wife and kids.
Ferrell is ferociously, hilariously unlikable as Cam Brady, the four-term incumbent. Whatever his merits as a congressman, the very idea that he has to run for re-election, and against this idiotic sissy to boot, makes him nuts, leading to one gaffe after another.
Marty, guided by a nasty political infighter (Dylan McDermott), has a killer campaign slogan to take him to Washington. "Bring your brooms," he says of D.C. "Because it's a MESS."
But movies that step on that third rail of filmgoer appeal — politics — always pull their punches.
Here, the debates have a few chuckles. Challenge your opponent to recite "The Lord's Prayer," and hope his campaign aide (Jason Sudeikis, in his one good scene) has to mime out the words from the back of the auditorium. Most of the laughs come from the shocks, which can be shocking. (Oh no, he did NOT just punch a baby! That DUI did NOT just end with him stealing the cop's car!)
And the actors are game. Ferrell is in full "Anchorman"-meets-"Ricky Bobby" mode here, loud, abrasive, big-haired and outrageous. And Galifianakis refines the mincing ditzes he's made his shtick. But steering clear of anything that might turn off some potential ticket-buyers makes the film feel as focus-grouped and watered-down as the very campaigns it aims to spoof.
The one unadulterated, fall-on-the-floor running gag in Chris Henchy and Shawn Harwell's script is played to perfection by Karen Maruyama. She's Mrs. Yao, the maid for Marty's bigoted dad, forced to talk in a Stepin Fetchit singsong straight out of "The Help" to remind the old man "of the good old days" — when Jesse Helms was a North Carolina icon and all was right with the South. Maruyama kills, so much so that they bring her back for an ill-considered bit in the finale.
By that time, despite landing more than a few laughs beforehand, Roach must have known that he needed the help.

First of all, sorry for any grammar and spelling mistakes, non-native speaker here and on my phone, I'll try to be as coherent as possible.
I have background in some best-of threads and one thread in which I was told I have basically a Duh and it seems nothing much has changed.
We went out for lunch with the ILs yesterday and MIL and FIL took turns running around with DS (2) putting him on the swing, etc. There was also a sort of climbing structure with bars. LO loves to climb and we usually let him explore and climb all sorts of stuff (supervised of course). Husband and I had helped him on the climbing thing minutes before, so of course my ILs thought it's okay to put him up there as well. Climbing structure was about 9 feet high. While they kept their hands on him all the time, I was absolutely uncomfortable with that. I don't really trust anyone with doing this kind of stuff with DS except for my husband and I, simply because we are both young, tall and strong and we know our child best and can react quickly when he takes a wrong step or bends over quickly or whatever.
My FIL is much shorter than my husband and I and he didn't even reach LOs legs completely when he was all the way up, so one wrong movement and something could have happened.
My MIL has the attention span of a squirrel on acid and has extremely poor judgement concerning what is truly dangerous for a toddler and what isn't IMHO, which is why I am generally a little nervous when she interacts with DS. She would become hysterical when he comes too close to a table (one soft bump on the head and he'll learn to avoid it next time is my credo) while literally at the same time balancing two cups of hot coffee over his head. Yes, she's also my BEC, but I'm working on that.
Anyway... I had already given DuH a look when his father took LO on the climbing thing and again when his mother took him there. Yes, I should have said something to him, but I asked him last night when we were fighting about it how he had interpreted my look and he knew exactly that I felt uncomfortable and wanted him to take LO away or to at least get up and stand next to them. He even said the second time I looked at him "Relax, it's all under control." (Really? Where?) , so I got up, took DS myself and told MIL "no more climbing please".
I was so mad at DuH. I still am. We fought about it last night and he, as per usual, tried to make it about me being overprotective ("What when he's older and wants to ride a bike, are you going to forbid that, too?" - didn't really know what to say to that), me just not wanting his parents to play with LO (bullshit, I also don't allow my elderly father to handle LO alone, which of course has never been a problem for DuH) and me depriving LO of positive experiences with his grandparents (I told DuH that he can have those on the ground as well).
So for me, this all breaks down to DuH not protecting LO which is an ongoing problem. He argues that he just doesn't see things as problems the way I do. I told him that to him it's perfectly okay then for me to sit there worrying about our son as long as he doesn't have to address things. He just can't open his fucking mouth and tell people that we don't want certain things. He argued that he wants to "pick his battles" and gave the example of my mother smoking next to LO. He knows I would have ripped my mother a new one if I had been present but he just says that my mom had already put out the cigarette when he saw it, so he didn't say anything. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??? I said to him even when it has been an hour after you saw her doing that, you still have to go up to her and say "Dusty'sMom, I never want to see you smoking around my son ever again." What is so fucking difficult about that???
I asked him when was the last time I started arguing with him when he felt uncomfortable with someone or something concerning our child. Oh that's right... I NEVER argue about these things even if I don't agree with him. I also told him that I am so hurt by the fact that he rather risks the two of us getting into a fight than to speak up for his child and wife. He knows this is an extremely sore topic for me because this can be traced aaaaaall the way back to my PP period (baby hogging ILs anyone?).
He finally got it after that. He said that I'm right, that he screwed up and that he is sorry for his behaviour and that he is going to change it. But he has been singing this tune before, so I told him that I want to see an actual change in his behaviour.
So today he has been apologizing over and over, saying that his behaviour was unfair to me and LO, blabla, but I'm still mad and still keep telling him that he doesn't have to keep apologizing and that I just want to finally see him standing up for his family.
So... I know that this is a full-blown DuH instead of an IL problem at this point, but I love this board's advice and you people are extremely good at pointing out DuH AND DuW issues.
So please, wise DWILers, give it to me straight... was I overreacting? Is this all on me because I should have said something instead of just giving my husband the stinkeye? Am I just a nagging Nancy and should I just suck it up and let people go bungee jumping with my son, so as not to deprive him of happy childhood memories? Or am I just gaslighting myself here? How should I handle the situation with my husband?
Most of you are probably asleep right now, but I do hope you can give me some outside perspective on this later today. Thank you all in advance!

Advent 2009: "Christmas Night," Inez R. Preece, Inez Jean Preece
Inez Robinson Preece (1899-1985) was born into a musical and missionary Mormon family (her father was a one-time president of the California mission, and her grandfather had served in the British Mission, as well as being a professor of music in London). She herself was a member of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir for at least 10 years, and began publishing church music when she was about 20 years old. Inez Jean Preece is probably her daughter, and is probably still living. The only bit of trivia I have learned about her so far was that her 1943 photo was carried by a soldier in the 1999 LDS film "The Last Good War," representing his sweetheart.
Click here to hear Phantom's recording of the melody.
Christmas night, when the snow is gently falling, Christmas night, the stars shone all around,
On this night the voice of angels calling,"O'er all the earth let love abound."
Christmas night, the heavens told a story, On this night, to shepherds on the ground,
Hallowed light, the angels song of glory,"Peace, good will in your hearts be found."
Christmas night, holy night, With peace and joy our songs we sing –
On this night, holy light, Forever praise our Savior King!
Christmas night, God's gift, his Son was giving, Christmas night, to mankind here on earth,
On this night we know real joy in living, Give, and our hearts feel the soul's true worth.
Christmas night, sweet Christ-like spirit bringing, Glorious night! in radiant splendor shine!
Hallowed night, join heav'nly choirs in singing "Glory to God!" – wondrous song divine!
Christmas night, holy night, With peace and joy our songs we sing –
On this night, holy light, Forever praise our Savior King!

The Deal: OCZ's Going Nowhere Fast
(STX), or even to Micron Technology (MU) or Intel (INTC). A tech-focused private equity company like Silver Lake could also be interested, although those deals would usually be for less than a strategic. And then there's the biggest company in the SSD space, Intel (INTC), which in April picked up NexGen Storage from its private equity backers for about $119 million. Executives there could also be interested in another purchase.OCZ did not return several calls seeking comment. Talk of possible buyers also raises the issue of valuation and the difficulty of fixing a price for a company whose financials aren't on the table. Yet even in OCZ's beleaguered state, Knapp, the outgoing CFO, managed to arrange a financing deal of up to $25 million, consisting of a $15 million term loan and a $10 million revolving credit agreement, with Hercules Technology Growth Capital (HTGC) after Wells Fargo (WFC) reduced its credit line in January citing technical covenant defaults. The original loan agreement, which was amended in June because OCZ still hadn't filed its financials, carried a stiff floating rate of the greater of 12.5% or prime plus 8.75%, although OCZ bought itself six months of interest-only payments. The agreement provides that the interest rate would be reduced after the first year if there were no defaults to the greater of 10% or prime plus 6.25%. There is also a payment in kind interest rate of 3% attached to the facility. Hercules Technology, which increased its stake in the company with the June amendment to about 1.3 million shares via warrants exercisable at $1.46 per share, said it didn't comment on portfolio companies. But, as a source pointed out, to get Hercules Technology to advance, and then amend, a credit line meant that it had to have seen something about the company's prospects it liked. "Somebody's got faith in them," Handy says, "I would have expected them to be down to the penny stock level by now." Based on that assessment, Handy says, he has a $500 position in the company.

Interesting comment considering ADI has said they want to build own railroad because of sheer volume required. Only 4-6 months ago that's what Palmiere stated candidly in an article. 98 locomotives, 2000 cars, it's huge should it happen in this decade! The dream! GLTA!
