April 30, 2016
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Chris Singleton is tweeting that he wants to play in Florida State's first-round game against Texas A&M on Friday.
Whether or not the Seminoles leading scorer and rebounder will be able to play just five weeks after breaking his right foot remains a different issue.
Coach Leonard Hamilton said Tuesday that Singleton's status remains day-to-day and that it's not likely any decision would be made before Friday's tipoff.
Singleton tweeted Tuesday that he is working to get back on to the court as soon as possible but also wants to be sure he doesn't reinjure himself. The 6-9 junior is expected to give up his last year of eligibility at the end of the season to pursue a professional career. Senior guard Derwin Kitchen is the only other departing Seminole.

g1xmk2 RAW noise performance
Started Jun 13, 2014 | Discussions thread
Shop cameras & lenses ▾
As ISO rises, all the others except G1X II increase the chroma or colored component of the noise, but somehow the G1X II is the only one to only preserve monochrome noise, this is unique. Although the colors of the G1X II seem a little smudged at high ISO, or is it because they do not have the color noise that stands them out from the pack.

Bromo mountain in the twilight. Many travel to find the beauty other spiritually.
Daily DeviationGiven 2013-09-11
There's an impressive depth of atmosphere within Mountain Soul by *Nendotan; a haunting composition with a striking flash of light forms cutting through the scene. ( Featured by arctoa )
Wonderful This is really one of the most expressive nature photos I know of
Damn, this is cool ; ; This is one of those places I want to visit eventually someday.
So stunning. The rivers look like quicksilver.
Such a beautiful landscape, well done!
So beautiful I love the mist and intensive lights
Amazing capture - congrats on the DD
Perfeck shot its amazing

Beautiful. Did you use any filters?
Congratulations to the well deserved DD!
Seens something out of a movie. Good balance of the picture between dark and light.
An outstanding composition with a dark, dream-like surreality. Excellent stuff.
the shimmering is striking
very nice shot
very nice shot


text: Yep, I just verified it, my 26mm ring spanner fits nicely on both the front and rear axle nuts. I believe some folks buy a KTM nut which is the same thread, but uses a 27mm tool. I think you can get a cool 27mm wrench that is also a tire lever, but I am not sure if I am remembering that correctly. And all should note that my previous post remains unedited.

Death to Dust: What Happens to Dead Bodies?
Galen Press, 2001 - Social Science - 821 pages
In our culture, we rarely speak about death -- partly because it is seen as a sort of pornography, shrouded in indecency and immersed in taboos; and partly because we know so little about it. Yet nearly everyone at some point has questions about what happens after death. At long last, here is a book to answer many of those questions: What physical changes occur to a dead body?

text: Kevin - Unregistered November 08, 2012 2:12 PM There are a lot of variables in Austin. If SV retires, he still has one more shot in Brazil, even if FA wins, so SV is under less pressure than FA in Austin. If FA retires, he has to hope for SV to finish 4th (12pts)or lower, or its over. If SV wins, FA must finish 4th or better to keep hope alive. Meanwhile, what will likely keep this going to Brazil is KR, LH, or JB in the mix, taking points off the top. This applies to both of the remaining races, and what will make them so interesting to see play out. 0 agree 0 disagree

I have a Mintons Cup and Saucer with an impressed Mintons mark and the model number A300 painted on the base. Any ideas on the date and approximate value would be much appreciated - Thanks
I think it was made sometime in the 1800s. I came across a lot of different prices for it, but the best and closest one I got was $246 from an online auction site.
Thanks for your help - much appreciated.

"Kuala Lumpur, a wonderful surprise!" Kuala Lumpur by shivan
Kuala Lumpur Travel Guide: 6,387 reviews and 14,997 photos
I've been there for a week or so.
I must admit that Malaysia, and Kuala Lumpur is particular, has been a wonderful surprise to me.
I expected to visit a country still back in development but what I found is an highly developed place, far more than Bangkok, for example, an all-new city with services and state-of-the-art structures. Many contradictions are visible, anyway.
Those contradictions are typical of a country whose industry is growing faster than society itself, so you can see fantastic skyscrapers close to ancient and ruined structures such as open-air sewers, that I think they are going to disappear soon.
Not different than what I saw in China.
Malaysia is also a multiethnical country, because it has been historically a land of passage for europeans, arabs and natives. It is now an islamic country, a peaceful one, and signe of different cultures are clearly visible everywhere.
Just give Malaysia 10 years to develop and then you'll have a very advanced nation by the hands.
Please chack my Melaka page for more pics and infos.

I hope you will come to Malaysia again and explore more places in my country. I would suggest some beautiful islands and national parks if you are nature-lover... Regards from Malaysia, Seng
I like your nighttime shot of the towers, it looks very atmospheric!
You were there too, Lucky you!
MASSIVE changes in KL since your last visit.. more tall buildings!! Merdeka - Sq - what is it in Italian which is so unpleasant...it simply means Independence sq becos it is here we were granted freedom from the British rule in 1957 Merdeka Square -
When the bosses are away the mice will play!!
Kuala Lumpur is a great city. I just wish I had more time to spend there, as well as the rest of Malaysia.
Nice page!
The Petronas Towers are amazing aren't they. Pity the restaurant didn't stop still for your picture:-)) but a great view. Seems they have cleaned up the city a lot since I was there.

Emil's Sword by meanlilkittyWatch
©2012-2016 meanlilkitty
Emil's sword as seen from Tales of Symphonia 2. Made from poplar, paint and scews
Really cool! *_*
Do you happen to think this design could be made out of wood and if so could hold up to combat and role playing?
Actually poplar is a lightweight and durable wood that takes carving easily. Granted you don't slam it against a bunch of trees, I don't see it taking much damage
I use White Pine for my crafting and I'm more concerned really about the handle, also I never hit trees with wooden weapons, more of other wooden weapons or bees.
Oh I was actually joking about the trees haha, I can't imagine too many people really doing that. Poplar is very similar to pine, I think it just has less grain.
Is it cheaper and can be found at Home Depot? Also you didn't answer my concern about the handle, it looks like with the size of the blade and the handle only being connected on the lower side it'd pop clean off with the most normal of swings?
I don't know about it being cheaper, it's normally about $4 a foot. To keep the handle strong I make the whole thing out out one piece of wood, and it's reinforced by the layers of wood on the handle. However, if you're still worried about strength, I could always make it from oak, which is stronger, but the grain would be harder to hide. The good thing is you'd be hard pressed to break it
Alright, I was just curious because it looks like a weapon I wouldn't mind trying to make myself. Oak is pretty expensive though, so is mahogany. Would the grain possibly be hidden if you used a fine grit sand paper?
how much if i were to ask for this commission?
Hello and thank you for your interest! I charged $150 for this sword, plus s&h. I made this out of poplar wood, which is a strong and lightweight wood that takes carving very well. I accept Paypal and am willing to take the fee in two payments, half up front and the other half upon completion. As a part of my services I can also share progress shots with you so you can see how it's developing and provide any input that you may have. Let me know if this works for you!
Thats perfect. The person I commissioned to make my emil's sword bailed last second. I'll get back to you in 1 week when I have the money. Need to find a caliburn/excalibur for a birthday present for a friend this week.
Sorry to hear that happened to you. When would you need the sword by, btw?
wooooooooooooooow *---* Your works are so awesome. Have you made any tutorials about weapon's crafting? 'cause i'd love to learn from your techniques
Thanks! So far I really only have two tutorials up I believe, one on how to make the San mask and one for the night elf bow. However I have several more on instructables.com. I will think about doing more tutorials in the future, in the meantime if you have any questions, let me know and I'll be happy to advice!
woa pretty
is this really wood? it looks like it's real metal
is this really wood? it looks like it's real metal
Awesome, best one of I've seen!
I wanted to make one for myself a long time ago, but I was afraid that the handle was snap off...How does it feel using poplar? Any fears of it breaking?
(Also, the character's name is Emil...You somehow got it backwards? xD)

XD hahahaha I was so tired last night! But yea, I love poplar, its what most of my swords are made of nowadays. Its lightweight,durable, and a helluva lot easier to carve than oak. Not to mention it looses wood texture very quickly. It can be expensive, but def worth it

United Way of Bartholomew County will launch its 2014 campaign with a call for donations — of time and effort.
The nonprofit organization would like to recruit more than 500 volunteers for its kickoff Sept. 11, known in the nonprofit world as the National Day of Service and Remembrance. United Way leaders say volunteers often become money in the bank for its 26 agencies supporting more than 30 programs.
"People tend to more strongly support what they've actually put their hands on," said United Way President Mark Stewart. "We have found that the more they know about United Way, the more they have an appreciation for our work."

I don't get it. Why do people think they have a right to ride on a private road others pay to maintain? "Hey, they let xxxx in" doesn't matter it's their road.
Cycling has an abundance of jerks, snobs, and people who have a sense of entitlement than any other recreational sport that I can think of.. We all see it and we all know the types I am talking about..
It's sad really because there are a boat load of awesome cyclists out there who get a bad name and a bad rap because of these 'stud's' (in their mind at least)..
Flame away...
Not to pick on any sport, but hypothetically let's say that there is a much greater percentage of jerks, snobs, and people who have a sense of entitlement in golf or recreational softball than in cycling. The non-golfing and non-softball playing public doesn't really care, because the non-golfing or non-softball playing public doesn't interact with golfers or softball players when they are golfing or playing softball, so only other golfers and other softball players really care about the jerks, snobs, and people who have a sense of entitlement, whereas the jerks, snobs, and people who have a sense of entitlement in cycling not only can make life difficult for other cyclists, but also for automobile drivers and passengers and pedestrians (i.e., pretty much the entire population), so the negative perception outside the recreational sport itself caused by only a few jerks, snobs, and people who have a sense of entitlement is much, much more significant.
If you want to change that to "the public perceives cyclists as jerks, snobs, and people who have a sense of entitlement more than the public perceives participants in any other recreational sport," then you are probably closer to the truth.
That said, in this particular case, overall, it is better for the public for cyclists to ride on the roads in Diablo Country Club. If I choose not to ride those roads, then I end up causing a lot of drivers on Diablo annoyance because I'm slowing them down. How about this, I once had a driver stuck behind me on Diablo Rd. who, after finally being able to pass me, yelled out his window as he passed, "Why don't you ride through the Country Club, a$$hole!" Huh. Maybe I was going to continue on Blackhawk Rd. (I wasn't), how does he know where I'm going? And I'm an expletive because I ride legally on a public road rather than ride on a private road?
In truth, I cause much less inconvenience to others if I go through Diablo Country Club. Indeed, I've never had a car stuck behind me when I've gone through, I don't think I've had any negative impact at all on any one else. What gives people more of a feeling that I have a sense of entitlement, when I'm legally riding as close as I can on the right side of Diablo Rd. as I grind uphill at a my best (but pretty slow) speed but inevitably prevent cars from passing, or when I ride through the private DCC and don't hinder anyone?
I do think the courteous thing to do through DCC is to ride single file (since I'm usually solo, not an issue). I think it courteous not to speed in DCC (not a problem for me, I can't ride that fast). I think it courteous to slow down to a reasonable speed going through stop signs, and to stop if there is any traffic around (I will note that, except when pedestrians are around, idiot cyclists who don't slow down to reasonable speeds going through stop signs endanger their own lives far more than they endanger others).
Sure, there are those who abuse the privilege of cutting through DCC, but the vast majority of people who go through DCC do it because it a) is safer, and b) does less to piss off the general automobile driving population than riding Diablo Rd.

Best way to clean tank
Hey everyone, I want to see what everyone uses to clean the inside of their tank. Please rate the following on a scale of 1-10, which you like best.
1. Hand-held sponge
2. Hand-held sponge with a handle
3. Sponge on a stick
4. Magnet cleaner
Look forward to reading everyone's opinion!
I vote magnet cleaner, all the way! I don't know why, but i HATE putting my hands in the tank water. On the occasions where i do have to put my hands into the tannk, i end up running to the bathroom after with my arms outstretched and wash them all the way up to my shoulder... Don't ask why... I think maybe i just have weird hangups about germs (fish pee) sometimes, i guess.
I use a combination. Magnet cleaner first, then sponge on a stick, then hand held sponge to get hardest spots.
hmm well i've used all of them i think over time.
i'm lucky i don't mind putting my hand/arm in the water.
I've used all those but nothing beats a hand held sponge for getting out tough spots and into those hard to reach corners.
I laughed out loud for that. I am so much like you in that area it isn't even funny. I just feel sort of bacteria covered once my hand is in the tank. I scrub my arm with anti bacterial soap each time. lol
I agree with Jeaninel, nothing like a hand held to really get the tank clean. I use the Magnet cleaner on a daily basis do make the once a week "get in and get out" a little easier.
I much prefer the hand held sponge, and I've tried all the methods as well :-)
In good fun,
I use a hand held sponge cause it's what I have as well as a razor blade for the tough stuff on the glass.

About The Sector
This element is vital for the survival of the human race and also as a key component of a productive and growing economy as it directly and indirectly affects the production of goods and services in many sectors. Indeed in 1999 the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) identified global shortages as one of the two most worrying problems for the new millennium: the other was global warming. There are several reasons why shortages are occurring globally and these include rising populations and the desire for better living standards, pollution making more that is available unfit for use, inefficiency of current irrigation methods, over utilisation of groundwater in certain areas and the effects of climate change such as flooding and drought.
Within the United Kingdom there are also concerns by experts that population growth and climate change could prove extremely problematic for the supply. The Office for National Statistics predicts the population of the UK will rise by 10 million in the next 18 years - reaching 71.4 million by 2030, and 78.4 million by 2050. While climate change projections for the UK also suggest that by the 2050s summer temperatures will increase and summer rainfall will decrease. According to the Environment Agency in a worst case scenario the total demand in England and Wales could increase by 35% by the 2050s. In an effort to address future concerns over supply the government has launched a strategy for England called "Future Water" that sets out a framework for management. This includes conservation, affordable and cost reflective charges, the use of meters, reduced sector-generated greenhouse gas emissions, quality and the need throughout society to reduce pollution and more sustainable and effective management of flood and surface water. In order to accomplish these various goals there are a lot of options available with differing degrees of controversy associated with them and different costs and benefits. These include building more reservoirs, investing in desalination plants, the introduction of compulsory meters, a rise in price to reflect its true cost, making companies fix leaking pipes, building a cross country pipeline and stabilising or moving parts of the population. The United Kingdom may also be adversely affected by concerns over a global crisis in coming decades that could cause UK food prices to increase substantially and damage the economy. The need to find long term solutions to these various global and local supply problems will mean that the industry has a pivotal role to play in this process.
The industry provides drinking water and wastewater services to residential, commercial, and industrial sectors of the economy and it achieves this by operating sophisticated and costly networks and sewage treatment plants. The United Kingdom industry is made up of regulated companies, non-regulated utility companies (e.g. involved in engineering, consultancy, laboratory services etc) and the supply chain (e.g. contractors, manufacturers etc). These various organisations are responsible for the supply of clean water to customers and the collection and treatment of waste.
The United Kingdom government has estimated that there are currently 166,500 people employed directly employed in the industry and 6,500 people who are self employed. It is estimated that around 3,000 new workers (31% of these being graduates) per year will be required by the industry between 2008 and 2017.The occupations where demand for new recruits will be largest include chartered engineers, mechanical/electrical/leakage technicians, design engineers and network construction operatives. Although the industry will continue to out source major areas of its activities to achieve cost savings for customers the need for investment in infrastructure will be a major driver of labour demand over the next decade and beyond. The industry employs relatively few 16-24 year olds and a higher proportion of 35-54 year olds and there is evidence to suggest that individuals will be needed to be recruited to some of the higher level technical and engineering roles as a high number of workers are due to retire in the next 10 to 15 years. Though there is some concern that replacements for these senior roles may be difficult to find in sufficient numbers. According to the United Kingdom government average basic salaries (excluding overtime and bonuses) for a selection of occupations include £38,000 for civil engineers and £35,000 for mechanical engineers.

Spokane County partnered with the Regional Continuum of Care (CoC) and has representation on the Interagency Committee to End Homelessness (IAC), is a member of the Spokane Homeless Coalition and participates on multiple subcommittees of these groups. The County also provides representation for "The Hearth Academy"; a group formed to address the changes to the homeless system that will occur with the final rules of the Hearth Act. Planning ahead for the shift in federal priorities for homeless, along with new definition will prove beneficial when the Act's Rule is released.
The Regional Governance Council, established for the purposes of the CoC, has an application review team in which the County participates. This interaction helps the County keep abreast of the projects/activities funded by the Human Services Department of the City of Spokane and assures that the county also provides similar homeless services to County citizens when they are in need. In this way, Spokane County hopes to encourage people to reestablish "home" around the County other than within the City of Spokane, should they desire to do so.
Spokane County receives document recording fees (primarily through the recording of mortgages) for Homeless Housing. These fees, commonly referred to as 2163, 1359, 2331, and/or 2048 funds, are collected for homeless housing purposes as documents are recorded. Approximately 40% of these funds are forwarded to the state. The remaining 60% is retained for local use in the county.
The funds are designated to assist low-income persons only – those earning less than 50% of the Area Median Income.
Spokane County Community Services, Housing, and Community Development Department, in partnership with Spokane Neighborhood Action Partners, has implemented a Re-Entry Initiative in order to assist persons exiting correctional and qualified mental health institutions, as well as other specified programs within Spokane County.
To be eligible, one must be exiting an institution such as, Spokane County Jails, Prison Work Releases, and other institutions currently defined within the program. Additional eligibility criteria are that you meet the definition of homeless and are considered low-income by HUD standards.
Our screening is designed to take approximately 4 minutes and will determine your eligibility for the Spokane County Re-Entry Initiative. We invite you to participate in our screening by clicking below.
A question was asked at a stakeholder meeting as to why Oxford Houses won't be considered as permanent housing for persons exiting incarceration. The reason that Oxford Houses aren't considered as viable permanent housing options for purposes of this program is because there is no actual lease between the landlord and the tenant.
The Consolidated Homeless Grant, provided by the Washington State Department of Commerce is focused on addressing the unsheltered homeless population by quickly re-housing individuals and providing monthly income and budgeting accountability to enable households to obtain long-term housing stability. Interested applicants are initially assessed online at www.spokanecountyhprp.com or by calling 2-1-1 between 8am and 5pm Monday through Friday to be asked the initial assessment questions to learn if they are eligible for an application and intake assessment to this program.

From Phone To Fashion, Nokia Style; A Designer Who Sets A Worldwide Standard For Technophiles
By KATIE HAFNER
Published: December 9, 1999
FRANK NUOVO, chief designer at Nokia, sits in his spacious office in Calabasas, Calif., surrounded by several generations of cell phones he has had a hand in creating, and ponders the serendipitous turns in his career that led to a full-time fixation on mobile communications.
The first came one day just before Christmas more than a decade ago, when Mr. Nuovo was a young industrial designer at Designworks/USA, a consulting firm near Los Angeles. A call came from an executive at nearby Nokia who was looking for design help with a new line of mobile phones. Mr. Nuovo happened to be the only one in the office, so he took the call.
Now Mr. Nuovo, who is 38, is credited with helping Nokia (pronounced NO-kee-ah) do for cell phones what Swatch did for watches. His idea -- turning cell phones into fashion statements -- has been hugely successful. This year, said Brian Modoff, an analyst with Deutsche Banc Alex Brown, almost one in every three phones sold worldwide was made by Nokia, which has blended its fashionable image with a reputation for making sturdy phones that are easy to use.
The most ubiquitous of Mr. Nuovo's products are the 5100 and 6100 Series phones. One secret of the phones' success is their ability to change their looks. An owner can swap faceplates to make a phone match a shade of nail polish. It is not unusual for someone to buy a new Nokia phone along with four or five different covers. Mr. Nuovo, himself a fashion hound, considers a cell phone to be as visible an accessory as his Milus wristwatch.
The newest rage is the 8210, the smallest digital phone on the market in Europe. It was introduced in October in Paris, not at a consumer electronics conference but at a fashion show for the designer Kenzo.
Although Nokia is based in Helsinki, Finland, and has nine major offices around the world with design components, the company's principal design center is the one tucked into a bland office park in Calabasas, about an hour northwest of downtown Los Angeles. That fact has everything to do with Mr. Nuovo, a native Californian who preferred not to uproot his family and move to Finland when he went to work for Nokia full time in 1995.
Much of the center, which has no sign outside, is behind locked doors, with the exception of a modest reception area, a conference room and Mr. Nuovo's office. Mr. Nuovo said the exact number of designers who work with him in Calabasas was a secret but that it was ''substantial.''
Scattered about Mr. Nuovo's office are objects whose design he admires: several scale models of luxury cars, a soap dish of sculpted aluminum, and interesting springs, bottle openers and spheres.
Most prominent is a display of 75 or so expensive and unusual pens, all of them miniature sculptures made of aluminum, titanium, wood or cork, which Mr. Nuovo picked up in his travels through Europe and Asia. Mobile phones, Mr. Nuovo said, are not far removed from what he finds beautiful in pens. Pens are the ultimate handheld device. They are intuitively easy to use, and everyone has a different preference for shape, color and feel.
''You want it to be comfortable and in a sense, you want it to tickle the right nerve,'' he said. ''It all adds up to an emotional and physical attachment to the device. If you look at our phones, you'll see a lot of that.''
Mr. Nuovo likens the design process to playing in a band. Designing a product, he said, requires consistent communication among the mechanical and electrical engineers, the manufacturing team and other designers. ''You're only as good as the worst guy in the band,'' he said.
Mr. Nuovo's boss, Yrjo Neuvo, Nokia's senior vice president for product creation, said one of Mr. Nuovo's greatest talents -- unusual for an artist -- was his ability to guide teams of designers. ''He gives direction, and gives the final touch, but he's also guiding the whole team,'' Mr. Neuvo said.
Mr. Nuovo's analogy to music was no accident. By age 11, Mr. Nuovo, who bears a striking resemblance to both Al Pacino and Dustin Hoffman (he has been mistaken for Mr. Hoffman on the streets of Beverly Hills and Mr. Pacino in a bar in Helsinki), was a professional drummer. While growing up in Monterey, Calif., he played jazz and jazz fusion in trios and big bands. ''My parents had to drive me to the gigs,'' he said.
But art always beckoned. In 1983 he enrolled at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, which is famous for turning out some of the world's most successful industrial designers.
While still a student, Mr. Nuovo caught the eye of Chuck Pelly, chief executive of Designworks/USA, now a subsidiary of BMW. Mr. Pelly put him to work designing patio furniture and automobile interiors. ''We watch key students all around the world,'' Mr. Pelly said. ''Every few years you notice one that has a combination of high learning skills, a natural business mind and is a very good designer. He was clearly destined to grow like crazy.''
Apart from the lucky phone call from Nokia, Mr. Nuovo has had timing work for him in other ways. His rise at Nokia, once a manufacturing conglomerate known for rubber boots and toilet paper, coincided with the company's gradual decision to focus almost exclusively on cell phones.

San Francisco: Microsoft Corp has bought start-up id8 Group R2 Studios Inc as it looks to expand further in technology focused on the home and entertainment, a person familiar with the situation said on Wednesday.
id8 Group R2 Studios was started in 2011 by Silicon Valley entrepreneur and investor Blake Krikorian. It recently launched a Google Android application to allow users to control home heating and lighting systems from smartphones.
Krikorian's Sling Media – which was sold to EchoStar Communications in 2007 – made the "Slingbox" for watching TV on computers.
Krikorian will join Microsoft with a small team, according to the Wall Street Journal, which reported the acquisition earlier on Wednesday. Microsoft also purchased some patents owned by the start-up related to controlling electronic devices, the newspaper added.
Krikorian and a Microsoft spokesman declined to comment.
Krikorian resigned from Amazon.com Inc's board in late December after about a year and a half as a director at the company, the Internet's largest retailer.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Question from YuvalShot
How do I solve shroud hearth barrow puzzle?
shroud hearth barrow - So I've reached to to the point where I have 4 pillars and a bridge with a closed gate behind it.
I have done the right combination with the pillars but I dont know how to activate them.
I can get past the bridge but the gate is just closed :(
4 years ago
WHAT IS THE combination of the pictures on 3 pillars?
4 years ago
Accepted Answer
The door opens on the same side as the pillars. It may be locked but if it is then the key is on one of the people you kill. I'm pretty sure it's unlocked though.
Go into the room on the same side as the pillars and stand on the pressure plate that looks like the pressure plate outside. There are 4 walls that will rotate and eventually a gap will appear in each wall that will allow you to see the symbol on the wall. Put the same 4 symbols on the rotating pillars outside and then stand on the pressure plate. Only the right combination will lower the bridge AND open the gate.
Hope this helps!
4 years ago
To the first part: There is a pressure plate right in front of the gate, if you step on that, the gate will raise if you have the right combo of pillars.
Second part: can't quite remember the pillar combo, but it is shown some where close in an ajoining room i believe....

WORD:Enjoy the end of summer
September 2, 2007
Hey kids, you've only got a couple of more days of summer to enjoy before you head back to school. We're betting most of you are at the beach this Labor Day weekend. We hope so. Put down those video games and make the best of those dwindling sunny afternoons. Yeah, homework's a bummer, but look on the bright side, at least the weather's good. The end of summer vacation is even better news for parents who look forward to a bit more solitude without the little ones running wild in the house.

March 30, 2003
The news of U.S. Marine Jose Garibay's death on the battlefield in Iraq brought the war to the heart of our community, beyond our TV screens where images of war mimic a hybrid of video games and a reality TV show gone haywire. Being able to meet the family and witness the unselfish love and support they received from the community made me realize that regardless of race, religion or political opinion, the people of Newport-Mesa could come together and unite as one. Like a large family sharing the grief of losing a loved one. I hope the Garibay family understood why we, the media, had to follow their story.

St. Mary's Health Care System CEO Tom Fitz announced today that he plans to retire as head of the hospital and related facilities at the end of the year to spend more time with his family.
"With the graduation of our youngest daughter from college, the marriage of our middle daughter and the increasing demands on my time, my wife and I began to evaluate our wants and desires for the next few years," Fitz said in a news release.
"I have always felt that St. Mary's deserved 110 percent of my focus and attention. I have decided to slow down, enjoy life, and explore new opportunities. My desire in announcing this decision now is to give St. Mary's time to find my replacement," he said.
Fitz, a native of Hickory, N.C., came to St. Mary's in 1999 after serving as CEO for hospitals in Florida, Tennessee and Mississippi.
Fitz in 1999 replaced Ed Fechtel as St. Mary's president and CEO, who retired after 36 years at the helm of the hospital.

Sweet Revenge!: Watch out for that old lady with a log!
Don't trust him! Joseph Pyfferoen, Rebecca Wilson, and David Nando.
Photo by Michal Daniel
For many years, the annual Showboat Players production has sported a split personality: dramatic melodrama at one end; well-chosen and staged period songs at the other. Sweet Revenge! finds the emphasis much more on olios than the action.
The short plays centers on the dastardly John Livingstone (Joseph Pyfferoen), who along with robbing banks and homes, has destroyed the lives of the women he has wooed. It takes a variety of good folks, including honest-but-slightly-craven Ralph (Christian Boomgaarden), honest and seriously brave Bunco (Maeve Moynihan), and the two ladies he has ruined, Rose (Rebecca Wilson) and Bess (Allie Babich).

Your 3-week-old
How your baby's growing
Babies love and need to suck, so don't discourage it. In fact, you may have already discovered that a pacifier works wonders in helping your baby calm down. When the "binky" or your finger isn't available, your baby may even be able to find her thumb or fingers to soothe herself.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends using a pacifier at nap time and bedtime, based on evidence that using a pacifier may reduce the risk of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). That said, there's no need to reinsert the pacifier if it falls out once your baby's asleep.
- Learn more fascinating facts about your 3-week-old's development.
Your life: Bonding
Some moms talk about feeling an instantaneous, consuming love right from the beginning. That's become the prevailing image of what "bonding" is supposed to be like. But bonding isn't a single, magical delivery-room moment. For more than half of new mothers, feeling connected takes a bit longer — and for good reason.
Birth, delivery, and recovery can be taxing physical experiences, especially if there are complications. If you've never spent a lot of time around babies, let alone been completely responsible for taking care of one, anxiety and worry about doing everything right can intrude too. Your relationship with your child is not so different from your other relationships — it can take time and many interactions for those feelings of attachment to develop and ripen.
So there's no need to feel guilty if you look at your long-awaited baby and feel like you're staring at a little stranger. In a sense she is. Give it time and eventually you won't be able to imagine life without her.
If after several weeks, however, feelings of aloofness or even resentment continue, you could be suffering from postpartum depression. Ten percent of new moms suffer from this form of depression, triggered largely by hormonal changes after delivery. In addition to prolonged feelings of ambivalence about motherhood, accompanying symptoms include insomnia, anxiety, changes in appetite, and thoughts of harming yourself or your baby.
Postpartum depression has nothing to do with your fitness as a mom and everything to do with biochemical changes you have little control over. Call your ob-gyn or midwife now — don't wait until your postpartum checkup. The sooner you seek help, the sooner you'll feel better.
3 questions about: ColicWhat is it?
Colic is extended frantic crying in an otherwise healthy and well-fed infant. It's thought to affect between 10 and 25 percent of babies under 3 months of age. All infants cry more in the first three months of life than at any other time in their lives, but colic is different. Some doctors define it by the rule of threes: three hours of crying at a time, at least three times a week, for at least three weeks in a row — usually starting between the third and sixth week of life. The "colicky" episodes often come on suddenly in the evening hours. Many babies will cry intensely, unable to be soothed, clenching their fists and drawing up their legs. Every baby is different, but colic usually fades away by around 3 months.What causes colic?
No one's sure. Some people theorize that it's due to a baby's immature digestive system or to food allergies. Others believe the cause may be a still-developing nervous system or a baby's temperament that allows her to be easily overstimulated. Although colic can make parents feel helpless and guilty, it's temporary — and it's not a sign of a long-term problem.What can I do about colic?
Each baby is different and is comforted by different measures, so you may need to experiment with a few techniques to find what works best for your baby. Here are some suggestions: Try to create a calming environment that mimics what life was like in your uterus: snug, warm, and calming. Swaddle your baby firmly in a blanket. Rock her in your arms or in a rocking cradle. Try holding her in an upright position to help her pass some gas. Some babies are soothed by loud repetitive sounds, such as a vacuum, dishwasher, clothes drier, or "white noise" machine, all of which are probably reminiscent of the sound of your internal organs from the inside. Or combine sound and motion by taking a car ride. Other ideas: a warm bath, a warm hot-water bottle or towel placed on your baby's stomach (make sure the temperature is comfortable on her skin), or a pacifier. Some parents report that their baby's colicky symptoms improve with an over-the-counter medicine called simethicone, which may reduce intestinal gas.
Hearing a baby cry can be frustrating and exhausting. It's helpful to have someone who can take turns with you holding and pacing with your baby. If you have to set your baby in her crib or another safe place for a few minutes to use the bathroom (or to have a good cry yourself), rest assured that leaving her alone for a few minutes, even if she's crying, is not going to hurt her. Do let your doctor know if the cry sounds shrieking and pained, if your baby stops gaining weight, if she has a fever, or if the colicky symptoms go beyond age 3 months— as these may be signs of health problems.

I have been trying on and off to give my LO rice cereal in her formula to help with her spitting up but have run into trouble with the nipple. I changed to the fast flow nipples but the cereal still clogs up the hole. I'm only adding about a 1/2 tsp. per 2 oz. but I don't think it's working cause it's not enough cereal. The amount of cereal she's getting isn't causing other tummy troubles so I'm not worried about giving her more.
Can any of you ladies recommend bottles/nipples you are using that work well with formula/cereal mix? I don't want to go and buy more and find they don't work any better than the ones I have.
Thanks for your help!

There is a God thats very great
There is a God thats never late
There is a son which is love
There is a son that lives above
There is a spirit that moves the air
There is a spirit thats very fair
Here we are that make mistakes
Here we are that drilled the stakes
His voice rang out "My God! My God!"
His voice rang out from the sod
Here he is alive again

He began to save us all
He began from the fall
Here we are with all his love
Here we are knowing hes above
