Written by Mr. Mouseburger 15th Nov 2007
Kindly submitted by Pyro
Blade, Whistler, and Blade's new technician Scud are captured by the vampire lord Damaskinos's men after the reapers are wiped out, and it is revealed the vampires merely wished to dispose of the dangerous "failures" the reapers were and afterwards use Blade to make a new race of vampires immune to sunlight.
Reinhart, Damaskinos's right-hand vampire and Blood Pack leader, has an explosive device made by Scud that Blade amusingly stuck to the back of his head earlier in the film, as insurance against the inevitable betrayal. Blade attempts to detonate it but it doesn't go off. Scud then begins to laugh, and says it was never supposed to explode. It was merely a dud.
Reinhart removes the explosive and tosses it to Scud, who then reveals to Blade that he's one of Damaskinos's familiars who had been spying on Blade from the start. He then goes into a full Villain Rant(tm) that gives Blade a moment to recover. When Scud finally finishes, Blade has two things to say to him...
"One, I've been on to you ever since they turned you. And two... it's not a dud!" Blade explains, brandishing a second remote that DOES detonate the bomb and promptly activating it. The smart-mouthed brat barely has a chance to respond before his bomb explodes and blows him up, spraying his entrails all over the room.

Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style Recipe
Karnataka Recipes
Member Level:
: 15 (
If you are surfing for the recipe to make the Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style, this article says a lot about it. I have given the recipe of Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style along with various options from which you can choose your favorite one.
Interesting Facts about Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style
Kannadiyans celeberate their new year with a grand festival named, 'Ugadhi'. The day of Ugathi celeberation is very special for them. So everthing they do on that day will be very specail.
From the rangoli decoration to the flower and leaves decoration made on doors, everthing will be special. After all the prayers of that day, they share the special sweets and dishes that they prepared with their relatives and friends.
One of the most special sweet prepared in this day is the Holige which is also known as Pooran Poli or Obbattu.
The Holige/ Pooran Poli/ Obbattu dish can be made with any of the three optional ingredient - Toor dal, Gram dal or Coconut. The Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style is very special with the Coconut. Since using coconut will make the Pooran Poli in Karnataka stlye high in calorie, the tradiation has also adopted using the dals for this dish.
We use Toor dal to make the Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style at our homes. using the Toor dal for the Pooran Poli in Karnataka stlye will also make the recipe more simpler and easier. This time they tried the Pooran Poli in Karnataka Stlye with both the Toor dal and the Coconut. This new recipe of Pooran Poli in Karnatake Style was a great success.
The dish was awsome and everyone enjoyed it. The coconut gave the delicious taste and the Toor dal gave the softness to the Pooran poli in Karnataka style. For the outer covering either the Maida/Plain flour or Chiroti rava can be used. For those how wish the dish to be soft, maida flour can be used and for those who like the Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style to be crispier, rava can be used. Now take a look at the ingredients, procedure and the pics of the Pooran Poli in Karnataka style that is posted below.
The Key Ingredients for the Fillings - (Hoorna/Pooran) of the Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style:
Toor dhal 1 Bowl
Grated fresh coconut 1 Bowl
Powdered Jaggery 2 Bowls
Elaichi powder Little (1 Teaspoon)
Water As Required
The Preparation Procedure of the Fillings - (Hoorna/Pooran) in the Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style:
1 Take the Toor dal in a open vessel and add sufficient water so that all the dals get immesed in it. Now Cook the dhal in that vessel leaving it half covered with a lid. Do not pressurize by closing the lid tight or by boiling it in a pressure cooker. Doing so will make the dal more soft. This should not happen. So see that the dal is cooked only 3/4th. Do check whether there is sufficient water.
2 Once the dal is cooked /4th switch off the stove and drain the remaining water from the dal. Keep the remaining water aside. Do not waste it. It is rich in protiens and so it can be even used for the sambar or rasam.
3 After the water drains fully, put the grated coconut to this dal. Also add the elaichi powder and the jaggery.
4 Now go for a heavy bottomed vessel or a pressure cooker. Put this mixture in this pan and lite it with a medium flame. While this mixture cooks keep on stirring continuously. These ingredients should get to the consistency such that the mixture gets to the shape of a ball leaving the walls aside. Till this stage is reached, keep on stirring. Else there is a chance for the mixture to burn. When the mixture reaches the consistency, stop cooking and leave it to cool.
5 Once this mixture cools, put it in mixy and grind it. Bring this mixture to a state of paste without adding water to it. To bring this filling to the traditional taste, instead of grinding it in mixy, you can use the olden day's stone (Ural) to do it.
6 Now the Hoorna is to be made into medium sized balls. The size of each balls can be big lemon sized.
The Hoorna/ Pooran is ready for the fillings of the Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style. Now its time to make the wrapper, the poli in which the Pooran is to be filled.
The Key Ingredients for the Outer Covering of the Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style:
Maida/ Plain Flour or Rava (Chiroti) 1/2 kg
Salt 1/4 Teaspoon
Groundnut (Preferable)/ Refined oil 1/2 litre
Turmeric 1/4 Spoon
Water As Required
The Preparation Procedure of the Outer Covering for the Holige/ Obbattu/ Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style:
1 Take the flour in a vessel and put the turmeric and salt in it. You can even dissolve the salt and the turmeric into to the water and then add to the dough so that the taste and the colour gets spread evenly. Mix it to the consistency softer than the chapati.
2 Now Pour Oil in this wide mouthed vessel so that the dough gets completely immersed in the oil. Now leave this aside for atleast an hour.
3 After the dough gets softened for an hour, make paratha sized balls one by one by taking it from oil.
4 Now this paratha sized ball has to be patted exactly like doing for the puri.
5 Then place the filling/ Pooran in the center and cover the dough completely.
6 Now again pat the ball of dough same as you did previously. If you feel patting it with the roller, you can even do it with the hands. My mother usually does so.
7 Now heat a non stick tawa and spread it with a teaspoon of oil. This is to be done only when you begin with the first Poli. Put the patted Pooran Poli over the tawa and fry it both the sides.
8 avoid using oil for the rest of the Holiges.
Now the Pooran Poli in Karnataka style is ready to serve. Garnish it by Spreading the ghee over it before serving. You can either spread the ghee or serve it in a cup so that it can be spread if required. Also serve a cup of milk along with Pooran Poli in Karnataka Style. Give it hot and the taste says a lot.

It was announced today that Alicia Vikander will receive the Rising Star Award at the Palm Springs Film Festival in January. As you know, Alicia's being positioned for an Oscar nomination for her work in The Danish Girl and she's shown up on several critics' lists as one of the best of the year though it remains to be seen how her chances will be affected by the category controversy between supporting and lead.

Marc Jacobs announced last night that Winona Ryder is the new face of Marc Jacobs Beauty. It's the first time she's fronted a line of beauty products. And it makes total, total, total sense. As he says on his Instagram post, they've known each other a long time. He's dressed her for years. Full Story
My Obsession: short hair for the holidays
Photographer Group/ AKM-GSI/ Splash News
My Obsession, Sam and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, went to a private party in Hollywood this weekend. As you can see, he's cut his hair. And is clean shaven. F-------ckkkkk. Look at that bone structure. Look. At. That. Bone. Structure. This is close-ish to what he was like in Nowhere Boy, right? Except that was 7 years, a marriage, and two kids ago. Full Story

Last week I wrote in Smutty Tingles that I think I've officially stopped caring about Harry Styles. It's more like, even though they won all those American Music Awards, because the show wanted to make sure their crazy fans were watching, One Direction is… fading. Doesn't Harry look bored? To me he looks bored. Full Story
First carpet of the year

Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz haven't been on a carpet together in over a year. Technically they weren't on a carpet together last night as he did not pose with her during arrivals at the Bond Spectre premiere but close enough, because there was a kiss inside the theatre, and she had her arms around him from behind while he was waiting to be greeted by the royals and they continued to hold hands even as Daniel was talking to the princes.

Zoe's double date

Zoe and artist Twin Shadow started dating this summer. He was with her last week at an ELLE event and last night he joined her again on the red carpet at the InStyle Awards. You know how these people work. When they decide to do carpets together, it's serious. So serious that he's cut his hair so that people will stop saying that he looks like her dad. Full Story
Best Dressed - Kerry Washington

I have an unsettling theory to put forward. Do you think that maybe Kerry Washington is the embodiment of a cliché? You know the one, right? A person who is as beautiful inside as they are out? Look, I know, I'm on little sleep and it seems saccharine in the light of Monday morning. Full Story
JLO's birthday dress
Wenn, @PapCultureNYC/ Splash News
I posted earlier about Mimi's party in Vegas on Saturday. It was held at 1OAK. Over at 1OAK in the Hamptons, on the same night, JLO was celebrating her 46th birthday. And showing you what 46 looks like on her. Which is… That f-cking body. I mean, it's what she wants us to be looking at it, isn't it? For me though, as much as the focus is on the prime parts of her body, I like the illusion of the cap sleeve that's been created here. Full Story
The Bodyguard, by request
We open today with shots of Jennifer Lawrence and her bodyguard in New York by request from many of you who've come to enjoy the value he adds to her pictures. These images might be the best ones we've had of him to date. Even without the dog. But the dog doesn't hurt. Look at that face. Full Story

JLO is currently shooting a TV show called Shades Of Blue in Brooklyn. Casper Smart joined her on set yesterday. She and Slum Bear were then photographed holding hands. And you know she knows.

In Living Will Color: Translating What The Banks Really Said
In honor of the FDIC releasing the living wills for banks, we thought we'd offer up a shorter version that the banks could use. You're welcome.
My Desire for a Natural Death
I, ______[BANK NAME HERE]_______, being of sound mind, desire that, as specified below, my life not be prolonged by life prolonging measures:
1. When My Directives Apply
My Living Will shall go into effect if my central banker determines that any of the following conditions apply:
- I have a large amount of short-term debt that I cannot roll over in the overnight lending market.
- I become severely undercapitalized and I cannot raise additional capital in the open market.
- My care providers determine that I have made some questionable bets that cannot be unwound without systemic risk.
2. My Directives about Prolonging My Life
In those situations I have outlined above, I direct that my central bankers to perform the following procedures:
- First, deny anything is wrong and insist that I am well capitalized.
- Second, continue to insist everything is fine and blame short sellers for creating a panic. [Bonus points for instituting a ban on short selling]
- Third, attempt to force me onto another bank as a questionable acquisition.
If none of the procedures above work, Tim Geitner and Ben Bernanke shall yell "FINISH HIM" in unison as they pull my access to the life sustaining Federal Reserve Discount Window.
3. I Wish to be Made as Comfortable as Possible
I direct that my health care providers to NEVER MARK-TO-MARKET MY ASSETS so as to keep me as comfortable and free of pain as possible so that my dignity is maintained.
4. I Understand my Advance Directive
I am aware and understand that this document directs certain life prolonging measures to be withheld or discontinued in accordance with my advance instructions.

Take down the zombie banks!
Buy silver!
Join the July 13th Silver Army, and buy silver this day!
Whatever floats your boat.
Whatever sinks your boat.
Submarines Bitchez!
Buy lead, brass and copper. Might have to use some silver instead of lead for the Vampires out there.
Here's a little video I put together from In Living Color skits;
Homey D. Clown Don't Kiss the Man's Ring
excellent :)
Buy Mars, coz Earth ran out of Snickers after operation Twix failed. (And no, you don't have enough to buy the Milky Milky Way!)
I'm saving up for whatchamacallit...(no wait, it was thingamajigs)
Oh Henry!... You'll have to wait for Pay Day for that Goober... But a word of advice... Don't trust Butterfingers with your loot, or else Baby Ruth & his gang of Snickering 3 Musketeers might Crunch his ass into Krackeling Mounds of Reese's Pieces right on 5th Avenue... They won't know what Tootsie Rolled them until after they've bee Zagnutted & Snowcapped into a Junior Mint Zero...
(And no, you don't have enough to buy the Milky Milky Way!)
With derivatives, anything is possible!
That doesn't make any sense at all.
Accumulate slowly and steadily while they keep the price down. A sudden spike will upset things and we will wind up with less, and the price during the industrial panic that will follow the silver market collapse won't go as high as it would with a smaller remaining stockpile.
Whatever dude. With your strategy there will be a point when you had wished you had bought more.
How? I spend almost 50% of my paycheck on silver. Basically everything that doesn't go to bills goes into the phys.
Buying a bunch of phys all at once is only going to clean out local coin shops and maybe retailers. You can't force shorts to cover unless you buy up all of the long contracts and demand delivery, at which point you would just get MF'd. That is, unless you think the system is fair, and that shorts don't have access to infinite fiat, and that the powerful won't just confiscate your accounts when you get to be troublesome.
It didn't work for Keiser, what makes you think it will work for you? Remember what Einstein said about insanity before you answer.
Interesting, if beside the point. Why would it work now, when it didn't work then?
I think it is working, and I am not saying you aren't doing justice, not am I saying your idea is not brillian in respect that you are purchasing a large quantity. But just as we all want to benefit financially, we should all want to benefit in terms of a society. We need to get rid of the banks, and taking the silver off of the shelves we can make it so their shorts get squeezed. Their positions are large, and so will be their losses.
It is always best to go at a target headlong. We must take them down at once. What better time than now?
Bully for you, but the banks are going to collapse all on their own, right along with the states that have backed them. They can no more stop themselves from collapsing than a man can build a new floor at the top of a building by taking materials from the bottom floor.
I, personally have an interest in seeing them continue for as long as possible, as I get more fiat with which to buy more silver. I won't begrudge the move when it comes, nor those who triggered it, but I will myself refrain from pulling the trigger. I suspect that many around the world feel the same way, especially the foreigners who are accumulating gold like there is no tomorrow.
They can no more stop themselves from collapsing than a man can build a new floor at the top of a building by taking materials from the bottom floor.
Poetic. This is the perfect analogy.
Until you clean out the dealers who then have to go to the Crimex for more "cheap" bars for minting, I don't see how this can do anything other than make all of the physical disappear. As for Crimex deliveries, Corzine broke the handle off of the door on the delivery dock.
Last I heard, Celente has no metal, nor his FRNs back.
The whole thing should've been done as a PR stunt (to raise awareness of the manipulation by JPM), rather than attempting to bust them. If this ever does get to a pressure point, they'll destroy Keiser just to let the rest of us know that they aren't to be fucked with.
As for "getting rid of the banks," LOL WUT???? C'mon, you should know that all zombies known as failed industries are just another arm of fedgov (airlines, auto mfr., and now financial services). As long as fedgov exists, so will the zombies.
Every body taking their money to credit unions and using co-op businesses where feasible will have 1000X the effect. But, I've got PMs as insurance against collapse-not to cause it. I just want the crooks to go out of business and go to jail.
Unfortunately most big accounts will stay with the big banks as they are TBTF. credit unions are geat but if everyone moves money in credit unions to the point that there is threat to the big ones, you will see new regulation on credit union restrictions. they have all the aces.
CU's are every bit as fucked up as banks these days.
Thank ZIRP!
Somehow this comes to mind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei-2xTsyL8w skip to 1:41
Sign over your lives, bankster bitchez.
Warm Regards....Satan.
pull the plug please (ptpp)
What the banks REALLY need is 'Fire Marshall Bill'... (the francis_sawyer nominee for chief of BIS)...
Anything not on the books is " not levered" , AKA dark Pools!
Highly unlikely that "Tim Geitner and Ben Bernanke shall yell "FINISH HIM"" and destroy fufture employment prospects. Look at what Bobby Rubin mooched out of Cicit's shareholder base!
Bite the hand that feeds it or bite me?
Which it gonna be?
Bite me.
Two snaps up in a circle.
Anyone remember that partial audit of the Federal Reserve?
"The audit of the Fed's emergency lending programs was scarcely reported by mainstream media – albeit the results are undoubtedly newsworthy. It is the first audit of the Fed in United States history since its beginnings in 1913. The findings verify that over $16 trillion was allocated to corporations and banks internationally, purportedly for "financial assistance" during and after the 2008 fiscal crisis."
Where does candidate Romney stand on this? Is this capitalism? Fucking fascists.
Audit the Fed needs your support right NOW
Very good chance of passing the house before the recess
I don't understand how "choosing liberty" equates to "supporting the beast."
Sorry, your incoherence is showing.
Can we, as interested creditors, apply for a death warrant for these bastards?
there is a rumor out on the moon that Neil Armstrong is returning. Its created a huge buzz amongst the dead matter on the planet.
"Imagine", says a dead stone to a deader piece of dirt rolled up like a turd, "This living, breathing thing is coming back to visit us."
"I hope he doesn't have his six iron with him." Said the roll of soft, rubbery dirt.
"So do I, I don't want to be sent around the moon like the proverbial cow, jumping and going round n round" said the stone, with a long dead groan suddenly revived.
"I know how you feel brother, he did pee on me and it left me with an indelible stain. I can still feel it in my left thigh."
"They say he is coming with a bunch of rich fellow-men who have run away from their planet; they are known as bankstas and they want for some reason to find a new home. Neil Armstrong is playing lead pioneer riding stage coach for them on this run."
"You know one alien is fine, but I don't like the idea of being colonised by a whole bunch of these invaders."
"I hear you brother, I have the spirit of those lost sons of our planet who went and visited theirs a thousand years ago. I like adventure but not being at the receiving end of a dirty dozen."
"Oh you mean our rare earths, I wonder what they became." said the stone.
"Well I'm sure of one thing, we send our best to their planet and they send us their worst. If any guy pisses on me again I'll fart in his face."
They left it at that, as to them Neil was a nostalgic dream. But a banksta...now that was another story with an ominous ring.
Excellent Tylers
Fuck that they need to include step 9: Made direct amends wherever possible
Blame the shortsellers except the Paulsons shorting the shadow inaccessible markets and accusing short sellers of being anti American terrorist.. Notice Iceland told BOA Banksters to go F%ck themselves and **** jail terms for banksters**** ... Now Iceland is recovering.. Despite Brown repeatedly invoking anti terrorist laws... The fascist are here in the name of patriot acts.. Very clever article... Sad for the world we are leaving for our decedents... Remember it is not the ruse Rombama or obamney care that should be on everyone's mind but the much more important Audit the FED movement.. Go Howard Beal and laugh and enjoy the holiday..
That's a good one!
BTW; Deutsche Bank in it's will made it very clear what it would do in case of terminal illness: throw all the junk it has on its books onto the FMS Wertmanagement. Which is the bad bank backed by German taxpyers. Good plan: socialize losses, as any good ultracapitalist finance industry business does since a few years.

Styling Tip
Step 1: Using your fingers, distribute a dollop of mousse onto towel-dried hair. Blow-dry two-inch sections at a time with a large round brush. Lift slightly at the root for volume and roll the ends under.
Step 2: Create a messy side part. Apply a dab of styling cream onto your hands and run your fingers through your hair to break up the finish.
Step 3:Tuck one side behind your ear and spritz with hairspray to finish.

These quickstart guides will provide you with simple instructions on how to install Icinga from source and have it monitoring your local machine within 20 to 30 minutes. Advanced installation options and configuration are discussed elsewhere.
Links to configuration tools and other addons can be found here.
Besides, a new quick install guide for using the IDOUtils of Icinga is also available enabling you to use an RDBMS based on MySQL, Oracle, or PostgreSQL, respectively.
Quickstart installation guides are currently available for various Linux distributions (most common Fedora, Ubuntu, openSuSE). Because some distributions are similar you may succeed to use these instructions for RedHat, CentOS, Debian and SLES as well. Marcel Hecko provided a quickstart quide for FreeBSD.
Please note that sometimes names of packages change between different versions of the same OS so if you don't find the packages mentioned it might be a good idea to use your favourite search engine to find out the correct name.
The Quickstart guide for Linux and Quickstart guide for FreeBSD, resp., provide you with instructions on how to install Icinga, basic plugins to check several things and the classical GUI accessible through your web browser. The look and feel is quite similar to Nagios although the GUI offers some enhancements (extended CSV export, submit commands for a group of objects, etc.). There is no database involved and all information is stored in flat files. Icinga-Web is not available in this setup.
Using the Quickstart guide including IDOUtils and Quickstart guide including IDOUtils on FreeBSD, resp., you will get the things mentioned above plus a database (using MySQL, Oracle, or PostgreSQL) to store current and historical information. The database is not used to enable configuration via a web interface. There are several addons specialised on this and there are no plans for a builtin tool. The new web interface can be installed when you use this setup. There are separate instructions on how to do this after you installed Icinga and IDOUtils.
If you are installing Icinga on an operating system or Linux distribution that isn't listed above, read Quickstart guide for Linux for an overview on what you'll need to do.
Command names, paths, etc. vary widely across different Operating Systems/Distributions, so you'll likely need to tweak the installation docs a bit to work for your particular case.

China Property on Rebound Despite Price Controls
(CHLN), is working on an 18-acre compound with more than 2,100 apartments. That just happens to be its latest project.Real estate agent and consultant E-house China Holdings (EJ) of Shanghai should naturally see business grow in sync with number of property sales. It's a robust company today after merging in 2009 with the online real estate business of giant Chinese Internet content provider Sina Corp. (SINA). Then this year it acquired online property service provider China Real Estate Information Corporation, or CRIC. China Housing and Land Development and E-House China Holdings have seen share prices hover near financial crisis levels despite jumps of 500% to 600% in mid-2009. E-House dropped a clue as to why in a statement last year, saying government price-check controls had hurt business. "Without the harsh purchasing policies and tightened lending control, I truly believe the price growth for China should have been much higher," Xie speculates. For now, buy stocks in lofty foreign companies with China projects but keep an eye on the big Chinese names to see if their share prices start climbing. At the time of publication the author had no position in the companies mentioned and owns no property in China. This article was written by an independent contributor, separate from TheStreet's regular news coverage.Chinese companies listed overseas should see eventual wins, after a rough period of government controls, unless their fundamentals fall off a scaffold somewhere.

Representatives from roughly 60 arts, culture, heritage, and festival organizations on August 26 agreed to create what's tentatively being called the Cultural Marketing Resource Center to facilitate coordinated marketing for Quad Cities attractions and events.
Quad Cities Convention & Visitors Bureau President and CEO Joe Taylor will apply for grants to jump-start the program, with a goal of opening the center by the beginning of 2010. Taylor said that if enough money isn't raised by November, the opening will be delayed. He added that the center could be funded for two years - including the salary of a director dedicated to arts and culture events - for $150,000. Other sources of revenue discussed at Wednesday's meeting were hotel/motel taxes, membership fees, and contributions from private and public sources.

At the public unveiling last month of Quad Cities First - the chamber-of-commerce-controlled replacement for the Quad City Development Group - I ran into Sean O'Harrow, the executive director of the Figge Art Museum.
His presence was a bit of a surprise, given that arts and culture are too rarely mentioned in the same breath as economic development in the Quad Cities. (They weren't mentioned at the debut of Quad Cities First.)
There's a reason for that: The establishment's conception of "economic development" is usually limited to luring employers to our community to create jobs (or at least move them from somewhere else). And the discussion is typically restricted to issues such as tax climate, transportation infrastructure, direct incentives, and workforce.
Yet, as O'Harrow pointed out, a community's culture is essential to attracting people - be they CEOs, workers, or tourists. And he and I wondered whether cultural marketing had been given any consideration as DavenportOne and the Illinois Quad City Chamber of Commerce took control of external economic-development marketing through Quad Cities First.
The answer, to the surprise of nobody: not really.
That oversight can't be corrected, so let's move into third-rail territory and suggest something truly radical: the long-term goal of a merger of Quad Cities First with the Quad Cities Convention & Visitors Bureau, creating genuinely unified external marketing with a holistic view of the area - not just business opportunities, but life.

The Holy Prophet of Islam (peace be upon him and his progeny) said:
إنَّ اللّهَ لا يَنْظُرُ إلَى صُوَرِكُمْ وَ لا إلى أَمْوالِكُمْ وَ إنَّما يَنْظُر إلى قُلُوبِكُمْ وَ أَعْمالِكُم
God does not consider the faces and properties, rather he considers your hearts and actions.1
While the criterion for evaluating dignity of individuals in most societies is material wealth and physical privileges, in Islam such evaluation bases are invalid and worthless. To ascertain what has real value, we need to look for that which is considered worthy by the Creator and this is none other than the purity of one's heart and deeds . Those who possess the twin treasures of pure thoughts leading to pure actions are the ones who will be victorious in the divine court.

Plot structure is a screenwriting topic that gets discussed frequently, to the point that it can seem complicated, intricate, mysterious and hard to master. The concept of plot structure needs to be simplified to teach, to at least give you a starting point for properly structuring your screenplay without overwhelming you with rules and details and jargon.
Here are ten key elements of plot structure presented by Michael Hauge, ten ways of looking at structure that will immediately improve the emotional impact, and commercial potential of your script.
1. The Single Rule of Structure
There is only one rule for achieving proper plot structure: What's happening now must be inherently more interesting than what just happened. The goal of structure – the goal of your entire screenplay, in fact – is to elicit emotion in the reader and audience. If your story is increasingly compelling as you move forward, that's all you need to worry about.
2. It's All About the Goal
The events and turning points in your story determine its structure. And those events must all grow out of your hero's desire. Without an outer motivation for your hero – a clear, visible objective your hero is desperate to achieve – your story can't move forward, and the idea of structure becomes meaningless.
Repeatedly ask yourself, "What does my hero want to achieve by the end of the movie?
How will the reader/audience know this is what she wants?
As soon as they know my hero's desire, can they clearly envision what achieving it will look like?
And will they be rooting for my hero to reach that finish line?"
Apply the same questions to whatever scene you're creating: "What does my hero want in this scene?
How is this immediate goal linked to that ultimate goal?
How do my protagonist's actions in this scene move her closer to that overall desire?"
If the honest answer is "I don't know" or "They don't", your structure has collapsed, and your story is dead in the water
3. More, Bigger, Badder
Structure is built on desire, but the emotion you must elicit grows out of conflict. The more obstacles your hero must overcome, and the more impossible it seems that he will succeed, the more captivated your reader will be. The conflict must build: each successive problem, opponent, hurdle, weakness, fear and setback must be greater than those that preceded it. Whether from other characters, from forces of nature, or from within the hero himself, repeatedly ask yourself, "How can I make it even harder for my hero to achieve his desire – in this scene, and in the overall story?"
4. Something Old, Something New
In each successive scene, something must happen that has never happened before: a new situation for the hero; a new secret to reveal; a new ally to join; and new enemy to confront; a new lover to pursue; a new (even bigger) problem to solve; a new tool for solving it; a new skill set (physical or emotional) to employ.
If scenes are interchangeable, if nothing of significance changes from one scene to the next, or if actions and dialogue are repeated, you're treading water, or circling back in your story. That is, unless… you are purposely repeating a situation or even a line of dialogue to illustrate the changes in your hero since we previously encountered that setting, or that event, or that speech. Echoing –using repetition in this way – is a wonderful method of revealing character arc, and of keeping the audience connected to your story.
5. Before and After
In creating the overall structure for your screenplay, look at your story as symmetrical, and divided into three sections (these are NOT the three acts – we're looking at structure a bit differently here).
Section 1 shows us your hero at the beginning of the story, living his everyday life. He's stuck in some way – settling for something, resigned to a life that isn't that fulfilling, perhaps, or oblivious to the fact that deep down he longs for more. If it's a big action film with no character arc at all, we will still see a portrait of a hero who is getting by, and who has yet to face his greatest physical challenge.
At the other end of this symmetrical structure is another fairly static portrait of that same hero, this time transformed. Living a different life, more mature and self-aware than he was at the beginning. Even though I'm calling this "symmetrical", this final section may not be as long as the opening one was. But it must give us a clear picture of your hero having reaped the rewards (positive or negative) of his actions, and for finding (or not) the physical and/or emotional courage that was necessary to complete his journey.
In between these before and after snapshots is the journey itself – the hero's pursuit of that all-important goal. This is where the compelling desire and the overwhelming conflict come face to face. But without those beginning and ending sequences, the structure is incomplete, and the story won't work.
6. The Opportunity
At the end of that opening snapshot – right around page 10 of your screenplay, your hero must be presented with some opportunity. Something must happen to your hero that has never happened before, which will create her initial desire, and move her into some new situation. This is where the forward movement of your story begins, and it is out of this new situation (often geographic, always unfamiliar) that your hero's outer motivation will ultimately emerge.
7. Focus and Determination
Whatever goal drives your hero, whatever the desire that dictates the structure, your hero must NEVER begin pursuing that goal immediately – or even at page ten. She must get acclimated to her new situation, must figure out what's going on or where she fits in, until her fairly broad or undefined desire comes into focus. Not until around page 30 (the 25% mark, to be more precise) will she begin taking action toward the specific outer motivation that defines your story.
8. Lines and Arcs
Structure applies to both the outer journey of achievement, and the inner journey of transformation. In other words, as the hero moves on the visible path toward that finish line, facing ever increasing obstacles to reaching it, he must also gradually find greater and greater courage to overcome whatever wounds and fears have been holding him back and keeping him from finding real fulfillment or self worth.
At each scene, along with those questions in #2 above, you must also ask yourself
"How is my hero changing in this scene? How are his emotional fears revealed and tested?"
And, ultimately, "What does my protagonist have the courage to do at the end of the screenplay that he didn't have the courage to do at the beginning?"
Whatever the answer, this is your hero's character arc.
9. Secrets and Lies
Superior position is the term for telling your reader and audience something that some of the characters in the film don't know. This gives you one of your most powerful structural tools for eliciting emotion: anticipation. When we know who and where the killer is before the hero does; when we know the hero is having a secret affair; when we know the romantic comedy protagonist is pretending to be someone she's not; when we know the planet is about to be destroyed before the inhabitants do – these all keep us guessing what will happen when the truth comes out, and when that conflict must be confronted.
10. Turning Fantasy Into Reality
Your job as a screenwriter is not simply to take the audience to incredible places and show them exciting or moving or astonishing things – it's to make them believe they are real. The audience wants to suspend disbelief, but you've got to enable them to do that, by having your characters behave in consistent, credible ways. Your audience is eager to embrace fantastic, faraway worlds, bigger than life characters and startling events, but only if your characters react to them the way people in the real world would.
You can throw an everyday hero into an extraordinary situation, but she must then overcome whatever conflicts she faces in ways that an everyday person could. And if she has to call on some added talent to save the day, you must reveal that talent (or ally or weapon or knowledge or magic wand) early in the story, long before it's needed. You can even give your hero super powers, but we have to see how she got them, and they must be limited in some way to make her vulnerable.
This list certainly doesn't cover every element or principle of plot structure that I lecture about or use with my consulting clients. Nor does it reveal all of the tools and turning points at your disposal. But every script I have ever read that followed these ten principles was properly – and effectively – structured.

Cloth diapers have a bad reputation for being time consuming and taking too long to wash and launder. Cloth diapers mean 2 to 4 extra loads of laundry per week (depending on how many diapers you have in your stash, and how old your baby is).
Washing diapers is no more time consuming than any other additional work for baby. It is nice to have diapers on hand anytime rather than having to run up the street to the store when you realize you used the last disposable diaper and forgot to buy them.

Senator Cynthia Villar has urged the Department of Foreign Affairs and Department of Labor and Employment to step up the repatriation of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who remain in Syria following reports of an imminent US air strikes against the said country.
Villar noted that around 3,000 Filipinos, mostly women domestic workers, continue to stay in Syria with their mobility already compromised as a result of sniper fire, frequent bombings, and even the alleged use of chemical warfare.
"Let us all pray for the safety of our workers in Syria including the brave men and women of the Philippine Embassy who continue to stay on to ensure their repatriation," Villar said.
She added that the DFA can enlist the help of the International Red Cross and the International Organization on Migration (IOM) as well as seek the cooperation of the Syrian government to hasten the repatriation efforts.
She said that it is better for the Philippine government to be prepared for the worst case scenario rather than be caught flat-footed if and when the US decides to intervene militarily in Syria.
The lady legislator noted that most of these Filipino workers are undocumented, meaning they were deployed mostly by illegal recruiters and human traffi cking syndicates, thus shifting the burden of repatriation on the Philippine government.
More than 90% of Filipinos in Syria are domestic workers, thus under the direct control of Syrian nationals.

The sales pitch
This contemporary two-story, built in 2006, features an open floor plan. "It makes it feel much larger than it is -- and it's pretty good sized," says Sally Gaudina, broker with Re/Max Equity Group.
A living room with corner hearth overlooks the patio and gives way to an eat-in kitchen with maple cabinets, granite countertops and a center island. It also has cherry wood laminate floors throughout the first level. On the second floor, the vaulted master suite features a reading nook, his-and-hers closets and master bath with skylight. Secondary bath has tile counters and floor.
The home also has a downstairs powder room-laundry room, fenced backyard, a forced-air gas furnace and a one-car garage.
What else you can get for $200,000
With $200,000 to spend, "this is a really good market for the buyer," says Jeff Wiren, president of the Portland Metropolitan Association of Realtors and broker with Re/Max Equity Group. "There is a lot of inventory in that price range. And I can tell you that two or three years ago, there was not."
These days, in downtown Portland, "$200,000 is going to get you a condo or maybe a town house," he says. But there are a lot of "close-in suburbs of Portland" where you can find single-family detached homes, he says.
The biggest difference these days: The money is going about 20 percent farther than it was three years ago, Wiren says.
"Realistically, you're talking about buying a different kind of home" in that price range, he says. Several years ago, it would have been either a condo or townhome -- or a single-family home that was in serious need of repair, he says.
Now you can move farther in and get more home for the money -- including a lawn, he says. For $200,000, "what you're seeing now that's opened up to that buyer is a detached property where they can have a little bit of a yard with a fence," Wiren says. "That just wasn't available two to three years ago."

St. Petersburg, FL - David Price went the distance to win his second straight start since returning from an injury as the Tampa Bay Rays completed a three-game sweep by beating the Chicago White Sox 3-1 Sunday.
Price (3-4) worked around eight hits, walking none and striking out five. The 2012 AL Cy Young Award winner spent 47 days on the disabled list with a strained left triceps, then came back and struck out 10 in seven shutout innings against Houston.
The Rays have won eight of nine to move a season-high nine games over .500.
Josh Phegley hit his first major league homer for Chicago, which has lost nine of 11. The White Sox have dropped 19 of their last 23 road games.

He's riding high on the early success of his just-released record Nothing Was The Same, and Drake feels confident it's his best opus yet.
The "Pop That" rapper describes the new project as "an album that you have to listen to front to back and then go over and listen to it again."
The song is already a big success, but it's bound to earn even more as the music video for Drake's "Hold On We're Going Home" hit the web on Tuesday (September 24).
Released on the same day his album Nothing Was the Same hit stores, the video features the 26-year-old rapper, A$AP Rocky, and a large posse celebrating in a lounge.
It's one of the most anticipated sequels of all time, so it's no wonder Drake had such a difficult time securing a spot on the cast of "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues."
The handsome rapper told Chelsea Handler that he had to really push his way into the project, and ended up talking to Will Ferrell himself.
He usually keeps fairly quiet about his personal life, but Drake decided to open up about his dating past during a game on the " Ellen DeGeneres Show."
In the episode, which was set to air today (September 20), the "Hold On We're Going Home" singer clears the air on which A-listers he has dated.
He's always down to help others, and now Drake is teaming up with fellow rapper The Game to donate funds to a woman in Ohio.
Ana Angel, a Tiffin, Ohio resident, lost her five young children and boyfriend on Sunday morning (September 15) after a fire engulfed the family's trailer.
Bringing together two formidable forces of pop music, Jay-Z and Drake sound fabulous on their newly-leaked collaboration "Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music 2."
The track will appear on Drake's forthcoming album Nothing Was the Same, slated to hit stores and online retailers on September 24th.
He's a huge fan of owls, and Drake loves the nocturnal birds so much he's been passing out owl necklaces to all of his friends.
However, Baden Baden Inc. jewelers has filed a lawsuit against the handsome crooner, claiming he copied one of their custom designs and has been making knockoffs.
With his new album Nothing Was the Same slated to hit stores on September 17th, Drake scored the cover spot of Billboard magazine's latest issue.
During his Q&A session with the publication, the "Started From the Bottom" hitmaker chatted about his upcoming album and reveals how he relates to his fans.

text: Home Culture Black Woman Wins $648,000,000 Jackpot Ira Curry, 56, came forward yesterday to reveal that she is one of two winners of the massive Mega Millions lottery. By: Stephen A. Crockett Jr. Posted: Dec. 19 2013 7:50 AM 0 Ira Curry Facebook A Bronx, N.Y., native and current Stone Mountain, Ga., resident is flush after confirming that she is one of the two winners of the $648 million Mega Millions jackpot. Ira Curry, 56, came forward to reveal that she was a winner and is expected to take in a cool $120 million after taxes, Georgia Lottery Corporation president and CEO Debbie Alford said at a press conference from Atlanta, the New York Daily News reports. Curry, an insurance company underwriter and married mom, used a series of family birthdays and the family's lucky number, seven, as the numbers on the winning ticket. She was driving when the winning numbers were announced, so she only caught part of the sequence on her car radio. She phoned her daughter to hear the rest of the digits, Alford told the Daily News. Curry's daughter read the rest of the winning numbers through "joyful tears and laughter," Alford said. "I asked her how she kept from veering off the road, and she said she was just in a state of disbelief," Alford said. Curry has not spoken with the press as it appears she is trying to remain behind the scenes for now. A Facebook page that is believed to be Curry's has been deactivated. The massive windfall hasn't been all joyous, as Curry's sisters who live in the Bronx in public housing told the Daily News that they were afraid that their sister's win could cause them trouble. "We're happy, but look at where we live," said Curry's sister, Brenda Baker, motioning to the public housing building that she has lived in for 40 years. "Our lives could be in jeopardy. It's happy, it's joyous, but we have to protect ourselves." By Wednesday afternoon, the sisters were making rushed plans to move, the Daily News reports. Read more at the New York Daily News.

An event to promote religious unity in the aftermath of weekend church graffiti incidents will be Monday.
The gathering, called Shoulder to Shoulder, is being organized by Interfaith Forum Columbus and will be from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Monday on the steps of Columbus City Hall, Second and Washington streets.
Shoulder to Shoulder is based on the idea that when people of differing beliefs and backgrounds stand shoulder to shoulder in respect for diversity, harmony reigns, according to organizers.
Previous Shoulder to Shoulder events have been held locally. One, featuring brief remarks from several people and a song, was in response to Sikh temple shootings near Milwaukee two years ago.
Christine Lemley of Interfaith Forum is finalizing details about the event's agenda, speakers and other elements. Her first order of business has been spreading the word.
Lemley and other organizers are encouraging people of all faiths, ethnic groups and other segments of the diverse Bartholomew County community to attend "and stand in unity about this issue."
Leaders of the Ecumenical Assembly of Bartholomew County churches are publicizing the event among Christian congregations. Some members of the Islamic Society of Columbus plan to attend.
The event represents local leaders' unified reaction to Muslim-oriented graffiti spray-painted Saturday on the exterior of St. Bartholomew Catholic Church, East Columbus Christian Church and Lakeview Church of Christ.
David Carlson, a Franklin College professor of philosophy and religion, is helping with the event, as he has done for similar gatherings here. He has long been an outspoken proponent of interfaith dialogue and harmony.
"Whoever is responsible for the graffiti on the three churches is intent on stirring up fear and even hatred between peoples of faith," Carlson said. "The graffiti is meant to separate us as people of faith, to drive a wedge between our communities. In response, our gathering together shoulder to shoulder informs the Columbus community that we, as people of diverse faiths, will not be divided from one another.
"Our gathering is a public witness to the community that we are committed to religions building bridges of understanding rather than walls of separation and suspicion."
In an effort to help people of all faiths feel safe about their beliefs or worship, Aida Ramirez, director of the Columbus Human Rights Commission, said she welcomes meeting with "any and all individuals and groups to make reports as needed" if people feel a hate crime has been committed.
The Columbus Police Department is its continuing an investigation into the church vandalism.
Columbus police are characterizing the incidents as vandalism because at this point there is no information pointing to anything other than that, said Sgt. Matt Harris, department spokesman.
Harris said there were no new developments in the case Wednesday.

Comment period open on three petitions
Amendments proposed on consumer loans
Wednesday, July 17, 2013
Missourians have until Saturday to comment on three initiative petition proposals filed this spring with Secretary of State Jason Kander's office.
In a news release, Kander's staff reminded Missourians that the five-day public comment period allows people to offer their observations on the submitted proposal, while the office is working on the ballot summary language that must accompany the petition if it's approved for circulation to get voters' signatures.
The comments can be made online, by mail or by phone.
The public comment period isn't required by current state law, but Kander instituted the process shortly after taking over the secretary's office in January.
The process includes posting the proposed initiative petition online as soon as its form is approved as required by state law, to make the process more accessible and transparent for Missourians.
Current law requires the secretary of state's office to draft the ballot language within 10 days after the form of the petition is approved.
The petitions opened Tuesday for public comment can be viewed through links on the secretary of state's website, www.sos.mo.gov/elections or by going to www.newstribune.com/petitions.
All three of the petitions opened for comment Tuesday propose constitutional amendments defining consumer loans, and two of them would change the same section of the Constitution — Article III, Section 44 — which requires financial institutions to charge uniform interest rates.
The shorter of the proposed amendments would add one sentence to the current language, and would prohibit any law fixing interest rates on loans from allowing a rate "in excess of $18 per $100 loaned per 30 days, or fails to give the borrower and lender the right to agree to a different rate in writing."
The longer of the two proposed amendments to that section would replace the current, single paragraph with 11 paragraphs detailing a "Consumer Borrowers' Bill of Rights."
Among its main provisions is language prohibiting criminal prosecutions of borrowers "for failure to repay a loan taken in good faith," and creating a crime of "predatory lending" for "any lender that purposely and repeatedly makes loans at more than twice the rate permitted" by the amendment's proposed language limiting interest rates to 36 percent for active duty military and "the fair market annual percentage rate" for all other borrowers.
The third petition open for public comment through Saturday takes the same "Consumer Borrowers' Bill of Rights" language, but adds it to the Missouri Constitution's Bill of Rights in Article I.

Market opening highlights progress west of Baghdad
April 30, 2009
By Sgt. Brian Tierce, 2nd HBCT PAO, 1st Inf. Div., MND-B
BAGHDAD - The Abu Ghraib district is undergoing a joint effort to not only provide security for the population, but also improve essential services and strengthen the local economy.
Over the past 12 months, U.S. Soldiers have planted the seeds for security and infrastructure through projects like the opening of the new Abu Ghraib market in western Baghdad.
In a ceremony hosted April 29, and attended by key leaders from the Abu Ghraib district, Iraqi Security Forces and Coalition forces, the Abu Ghraib Market was signed over to Iraqi control and declared ready for business.
"This new and safe market is a gift from the American people to the local citizens of Abu Ghraib," said Col. Joseph Martin, commander, 2nd Heavy Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, Multi-National Division-Baghdad. "The opening of this market is a big step but one of many as we work together to move forward with progress in the future."
The construction of the Abu Ghraib Market did not happen overnight.
Planning for the project began in May of 2008, and after Col. Martin's units took control of the area, the market was identified as a critical project, which could greatly improve the lives of the local population.
"This market represents the culminating efforts of 11 months of planning and working with contractors and project managers," said Capt. Mathew McKnight, a native of Carlisle, Pa., Civil Military operations officer, 2nd Battalion, 112th Infantry Regiment, operationally attached to the 2nd HBCT. "The market offers the residents and vendors of Abu Ghraib a shopping experience that most people in Iraq have probably never had before."
The unique aspect of the market is its closed air frame, rather than being out in the open the market is inside a building with air-conditioning and power outlets at each stall.
The project also required a joint venture for providing security during the construction phase. With help from their partners in the 24th Brigade, 6th Iraqi Army Division and support from the local population, the Soldiers of the battalion were able to see the project through to completion.
"Paxton" Soldiers have been hard at work in the district; having recently refurbished a 33 kilovolt power line to provide more dependable electricity to the citizens of Aqur Quf as well as the opening of a water treatment facility in the Khandari area and renovating numerous schools in the region.
"Like northwest Baghdad, each day we see indicators in the Abu Ghraib Qada of continued improvement," said Martin. "It's a result of the partnership we share but most importantly it's a result of the tenacity and resolve of the people of Abu Ghraib."
After the opening ceremony a group of distinguished guests from the community was able to tour the market and see the many distinct features, which set the market apart from any other in the region.
"Each stall has electricity, water and the ability to get it cleaned up. It is also out of the hot weather and air is moving in the building," said McKnight. "Most importantly the market is off the main road away from traffic, which increases the security situation; so it's better for Abu Ghraib as an entire community."

Ndamukong Suh Says Lions Can Go 16-0
No, really, I'm serious.
Stop laughing.
Defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh really said he thinks the Detroit Lions can go 16-0.
"I don't see there's a reason why we can't be 16-0," Suh said. "As long as we put in that hard work throughout -– I don't know if we're going to have OTAs, but throughout camp and getting ready for that 2011 season — as long as we stay healthy and are putting in that work, I think we should be happy with what we end up with."
Yes, the Lions won their last four games, last season. They did indeed beat the Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers. At 6-10, the Lions had their most successful season since going 7-9 in 2007.
So clearly, the Lions can go 16-0 this season…
Monty McMahon is one of the founders of Total Packers. He is probably the most famous graduate of UW-Oshkosh next to Jim Gantner.
The Lions will be a formidable foe if Stafford stays healthy. There defense, albeit aging in some positions has the youth and strength to contend with most teams. There offense is has found suitable athletes for the skill position granted they stay healthy, be wary of these guys next season, still no match for our spread offense. HOWEVER THE VIKINGS STILL AND WILL CONTINUE TO SUCK! : )


text: I recently purchased an Ironhorse maverick with 19.5' frame. I'm 5'10 and have about 1' (at the most) of clearance between the frame and the 'jewels'. I won't be doing any major trails, just some light trails and commuting. The bike feels good, but i'm a bit worried because if i fall down that the frame is too big? Should i return it and try to get a 17.5 frame instead ?
