About Matthew Cline
What about software used for communication or storage which provides for plugins/modules/hooks which can encrypt information? Does the bill not apply there? Would it require the software to somehow authenticate the plugins/etc as being on an approved list? Outlaw such extensibility altogether?
Wait, if I'm reading the law correctly, if a 15 year old boy has penile/vaginal sex with a 15 year old girl, the boy can be prosecuted for statutory rape? Or if two 15 year old boys had anal sex, the one doing the penetration could be prosecuted?
Why would a subpeona be so specific as to ask for something like all-in-one computers, as opposed to something like "all drives to which the respondent has write access"?
Well, obviously the EFF is doing this to make it look like it isn't a Google Shill.
I wonder if some of the politicians who take this stance know they're asking for the impossible, and ask anyways to set up the tech companies as a fall-guy for any terrorist plots the government fails to thwart. "This failure isn't my fault, it's Silicon Valley that's to blame!"
C'mon, you're not even trying anymore.
because the court is ordering the DOJ to lift the gag order,What if the DOJ refuses to lift the gag order? Is there anyone at the DOJ that can be held in contempt of court? Or could the DOJ refuse to lift the gag order without any consequences?
... to the extent AL or TG attempt to argue that the Court should consider other statements on their Twitter accounts, or any previous tweets by Mr. Woods, the argument is a red herring. First, there is no reason any of Mr. Woods' followers, all of whom were exposed to the defamatory statements, would even bother to investigate the speakers and/or their Twitter sites to determine if they were reliable sources.So, as far as I can parse that, Woods is claiming that his Twitter followers have learned through experience that Woods uses hyperbole, but those same followers will assume that some random person they've never encountered doesn't use hyperbole, and will further assume that said random person is a reliable source.
I have to wonder if this is someone impersonating a paid Russian shill in order to make them look bad.
Why concentrate on a company like Apple rather than, say, software like PGP? Is it just because everyone will recognize Apple, or is it something else?
Some at Denton's has a little devil sitting on their shoulder, whispering in their ear "That hole isn't nearly deep enough. Dig faster. Faster!"
The article that was published on my blog together with the layout and design features of my blogMaybe she thinks that DMCA notices can be used for look-and-feel "voilations"?
The EFF has a warrant canary FAQ. On being forced to lie:
Have courts upheld compelled speech?
Rarely. In a few instances, the courts have upheld compelled speech in the commercial context, where the government shows that the compelled statements convey important truthful information to consumers. For example, warnings on cigarette packs are a form of compelled commercial speech that have sometimes been upheld, and sometimes struck down, depending on whether the government shows there is a rational basis for the warning.
Have courts upheld compelled false speech?
No, and the cases on compelled speech have tended to rely on truth as a minimum requirement. For example, Planned Parenthood challenged a requirement that physicians tell patients seeking abortions of an increased risk of suicidal ideation. The court found that Planned Parenthood did not meet its burden of showing that the disclosure was untruthful, misleading, or not relevant to the patient's decision to have an abortion.
Also: 1) don't completely block the tweet, just have it not show up the the recipient or the recipient's followers, 2) do this quietly, so the sender isn't aware of it thus receives no feedback to use to try to get around the recipient's personalized filters.
Surely there's some law, either statutory or caselaw, which prevents lawsuits and/or contracts from being used to prevent people from providing testimony for a court case?
C'mon, Roca, you can do it! Dig that hole deeper! Throw away your shovel and get a backhoe!
No self defense against women by men? Yeah, bullshit. I haven't watched the video of the incident in question, so I don't know what he did in this particular instance was justified, but as a general principle it's absolutely fine.
They seem to be implicitly admitting that they think the State Secrets privilege depends only upon their say-so, and that the contents of the document are completely irrelevant.
It's possible that they've already spent all that money, and they really can't afford to pay any of the fines.
Of course, the manner in which they were moving the money around could still bite them in the ass, even if the money is actually all gone.
No, see, by leaving a clue that they were successful, the police will put in more cameras. Then the terrorists put bombs into the cameras! Mwuahahahaha! *twirls mustache*

The Growler's 2nd Birthday Beer Bash
The Growler magazine was set to celebrate its two-year anniversary this weekend at A Taste of Minnesota, but due to the Mississippi flooding, that festival has relocated to Carver County Fairgrounds in Waconia. Meanwhile, the beer-lover's rag is hopping over to Minneapolis for some b-day drinking. This Thursday, folks can kick off Fourth of July weekend with some brew at the Nomad, where Growler editors and contributing writers will be toasting to another year. The Growler is a bi-monthly magazine that covers the world of craft beer, as well as the culture and business surrounding it. It's published by the folks who host the Beer Dabbler happenings you see around town at events like Twin Cities Pride Festival and the Saint Paul Winter Carnival. This beer bash will feature a variety of firkins from local breweries, food trucks selling snacks to enjoy, music from DJ Backpain, and a silent disco (this entails folks dancing around while quietly listening to their iPods). Later in the evening, a beer-themed movie will be viewed on the JumboTron, which has been screening World Cup games the past couple of weeks. (Photo by Aaron Davidson)

Great way to see the city if you are not a walker. Live guide gave a great overview of the history of the city. I was able to they go back and visit the areas that where of interest to me.
We loved the option that the pass is for 24 hours instead of just for the day. We hopped on at 2pm and completed the balance of the hours the following day. It was great because it was raining the 1st day.
cant speak more highly of it except to say I would do it again
Beautiful city, enjoyed the tour.
A must to see the city. Great tour, great value. Recommended.
David K USA
Great way to see this beautiful city!
A must do in the city prior to others activites
Great bus tour of the city. Loads of historical information.
We love the Hop-on Hop-off bus tours because it gives you a great overview of the city you are in. Then, after going around one time, you can hop off and see the sites you want to see.
Good tour, a quick way to see the city and get some good historical information about the city. Also handy that tickets are valid for 24 hours so nice to mix it up over 2 days if you start around midday :)
Brook USA
lovely tour
Great way to get about and see sights!
One of the most cost efficient way to see a city if you do not have much time to sight see. The hop-on and off bus provides a live commentary (not taped) and the lady was very good, knowledgeable and extremely witty, you'll enjoy history lesson with lots of humor. Will definitely recommend to family and friends!
particularly loved being able to have a live commentator - great personality. Edinburgh, like Glasgow, could use a good scrubbing brush - particularly the Scott Monument! But loved the feel of the city and I think the tour did a good job of showing off the best points.
We ended up taking two tours--one audio and one with a guide. The real-person guide was so much better and interesting! Our sole major problem was starting off. I showed the Viator voucher to one tour bus driver, and he did not understand it and sent us way out of way to the city bus station, and the person there sent us to the railroad station. Viator should make it absolutely clear that customers search out the tour bus representative on Waverly Bridge sidewalk or in the booth, and the booth needs a prominent sign! Also make sure that customers understand that they can turn in the voucher for any one of several tour routes.
We do the hop on and hop off tours in all the cities we travel to...the best way to get a feel of the city and the lay of the land.
It was very good and helpful.
The tour was as promised. Very easy to catch the frequent buses and always had seats availqable. Only problem was finding out where the buses had their stopping points. when we first arrived.
We had purchased the Royal ticket and it was great that we were able to board any of the busses rather than being limited to one - plus our entrance fees were also all covered. Very crowded during August because of the Fringe Festival, but a beautiful city.
A good overall view of the points of interest in the city.
Truly enjoyable! It is a great way to know the city!
My wife and I and her brother went on a British Isle cruise on Princess Cruise line.
We pre-ordered the hop-on hop-off tour bus for all the ports that were available;
Dublin, Liverpool, Belfast, Glasgow, Inverness, Edinburgh and London after the end of the cruise.
We also purchased "Skip the Line" at Guinness storehouse,
which was good because of the long line to purchase tickets.
We walked right up to the pre-buy line person and walked in.
All the hop-off hop-on buses were very good, clean and all workers were courteous and helpful.
I don't think they see the Viator online print off tickets very often,
but there was no problem using the computer print off tickets.
I would definitely recommend the hop-on hop-off tour buses every where you go.
Pre buying did not save a lot, but you did not have to worry about having local cash to buy them.
I normally do not conduct a rating but everything worked out well, so I will in this case.
Gary, Renton, Washington
Hop-on Hop-off is an excellent way to get a feel for a city and with Edinburgh Passes for three days was great!!! The Viator tour did just that. We were able to get around easily and see what we wanted. By starting with that tour we more readily understood what Edinburgh is all about. (Also don't forget to get a city bus pass...for the time you are there also!!)
Leslie T USA
this was such an easy hop on hop off- I had done London last year and found it so crowded and hard to manage. I am so glad I chose one of my days to stay in town and "hop around"!
very good gave us a very good insight into edinburgh it is a beautiful city loved every minute of it did not want it to end

Anyone else had experiences with these? I have been getting them since around 18 (25 yo now). I had the gland removed on right side and now the cyst has been happening on the left. Before I was pregnant I would just go in to my gynecologist and have it drained and such, but it just keeps coming back and I really want to have the gland removed now on the left. I just don't know if they typically do that (remove both sides) and especially if they would do something like that this far into pregnancy (I am 31 weeks). Anyone have any experience/suggestions/home remedies to soothe/ease the discomfort... I can't even sit down or walk without feeling this thing!

I don't really have any advice but I have had them too. I think I've only had issues maybe 4-5 times and thankfully each time I caught it early enough and just drained them at home. I certainly understand your discomfort but not sure how treatment might be different in pregnancy.

I have had them and soak in a warm epsom salt bath. It helps them to drain too.

14. Banish the burn.
18 / 19
The right sports supplement can make every day feel like a good day on the bike. Two bicycling staff favorites include SportLegs and Acid Zapper. Both are a blend of primarily calcium and magnesium that pushes back the point at which your legs start to burn during hard efforts, allowing you to ride harder, happier. It's not just us saying so: During a 2003 clinical trial at Ohio's Kent State University, 12 cyclists were able to ride against steadily increasing resistance 11 percent longer after popping SportLegs capsules than when they took the test after taking placebo pills.

Reviews of Pay It Forward 2000
beautiful beautiful movie. i cant believe they done that to the ending.
heartbreaking movie.
i think its about time i become a better person and help make this world a better place even in the littlest of ways.
Thank you for such a beautiful movie. x
Trevor McKinney tries to make the world a better place with his pay it forward idea to make the world a better place. Not only does his friends and family get impacted by the movement but starts a chain reaction that makes an amazing story. Highly recommended.
Utopia descreve bem o sonho retratado nesta bela pelicúla tão bom se o mundo se fizesse novo além de uma estória que pode soar simplória mais demonstra mais profundida no seu desenrolar A Corrente do Bem carrega um elenco maravilhoso ,esperava bem pouco deste quando assisti na época ,conselho amigo:surpreenda se com este também!
Kid Haley Joel Osment proves his genius once again.
Wow. I had no idea this movie existed. Great cast, great movie.
One of my favorite movies. Such a brilliant, hopeful, wonderful film that's always a joy to watch.
I watched this film when I was younger and recently had the urge to watch it again. I'm glad I did because this film is one of the rare occasions where you can't help but feel the message and feel like you too should Pay it Forward to someone. Brilliant acting by Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt and Haley Joel Osment really bring this film together with an ending you won't forget.
Nope, a rewatch still hasn't brought me to my senses it seems... still love this film.
It's a simple premise which is laid out beautifully, fantastically delivered with superb scoring.
Fuck all you haters on here!!! ;)
This is a wonderful film and only drops 1/2 a star for the over the top ending which detracts slightly from what is a true tear jerker.
Oh alright, maybe I'm an old softie who still has emotional ties to back when I originally saw it and it left me blubbing. Not ashamed to say how much I love this film though. :)
Just about my favourite of all time (almost). Despite not being the best film technically, cinematography, acting or plot-wise, it is still an absolute gem. My guilty pleasure, if you will. It is inspirational, without being in your face about it, and is extrememly emotive to any audience. If you have not seen it, please do; you will be a better person for it.
Veldig bra film. Så den første gang på kino i England.
Sure, the ending leaves a bad taste in your mouth, but I am really drawn to this film. The performances are outstanding and the plot is original.
Um filme que ensina que não devemos deixar de acreditar, que não devemos desistir. O bem tem que começar por alguém e continuar...

Amerilithium Receives Approved Drilling Permits For Two Nevada Based Lithium Projects
HENDERSON, NV, Aug. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Amerilithium Corp. (OTCQB: AMEL) ("Amerilithium" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the Company received approved permits from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to drill up to ten holes per property on both the Company's Jackson Wash and Clayton Deep lithium projects in Nevada. Additional locations are permitted for development of the proposed drill plan, which includes an initial four holes on the Jackson Wash property and an initial three holes on the Clayton Deep property. The drilling locations are based on the findings and recommendations of the Company's controlled source audio magneto-telluric (CSAMT) survey reports.The hard copies of the drilling permits were not received until three weeks after their sign-off dates, thereby adding to the overall delay of the drilling process, which was planned to commence earlier in 2012. Despite the drilling program taking longer than expected to begin, Amerilithium continues to move the process along and will initiate drilling as soon as the Company is in a practical position to do so. Toward that end, the Company is currently reviewing tenders it has received for the drill program, and is in the final stages of ensuring the data received would enable the Company to produce a National Instrument 43-101 (Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects) compliant report. Both drilling areas are located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The drill sites will be accessed from existing roads, unimproved trails and overland travel when necessary. The proposed operations were reviewed by Tonopah Field Office resource specialists who have determined that the operations, as proposed, will not cause unnecessary or undue degradation as defined under 43 CRF 3809.5. The Jackson Wash and Clayton Deep drilling programs will be added to the Company's previously permitted and drilled Paymaster lithium project, also located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The Paymaster drilling program provided promising results from both primary and secondary sampling taken during the drilling of the initial three holes of the Company's eight-hole drill program. Those results have been used in the development of Amerilithium's secondary stage Paymaster drilling program, which includes development of two holes initially drilled (DH8 and DH2). Amerilithium is also currently working on developing a drill program for its Australian lithium assets, which also represent the potential for gold mineralization. The drill program is being based on exploration results previously received, including interpreted results indicating geology that is consistent with Ausgold Limited's nearby 5-million-ounce Katanning gold discovery. With the help of the Company's strategic partners, Strategic Resource Management, Amerilithium hopes to finalize the Australian drill program imminently. Details will be released as soon as they are confirmed.

Flu in Vermont said to be on riseJanuary 12,2013
MONTPELIER — Incidents of the flu appear to be rising in Vermont.
As of last week, about 20 percent of hospital visits were for respiratory illnesses and about 5 percent of visits to doctors' offices were for flulike symptoms.
Three adults have died, all of them in December.
Vermont Health Department officials say the rates of the flu are higher than other years in Vermont but that the number of deaths does not appear out of the ordinary.
A total of 10 people died from the flu last year, seven in 2011 and none in 2010.
The Health Department says it has not heard of any shortage of vaccine or whether certain cities or regions have been hard hit.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Gearing up for a planned Saturday adjournment, Vermont lawmakers on Thursday...

The Wallow-Union Railroad Authority will have its first meeting at 3 p.m. Wednesday in Elgin City Hall.
The Wallowa and Union County commissioners created the authority to manage the rail line from Elgin to Joseph. The line, once owned by Idaho Northern and Pacific, is open now from Elgin to Wallowa, and Idaho Northern is running trains to Wallowa Forest Products two or three times a week.
The members of the authority are county commissioners Mike Hayward of Wallowa County and Steve McClure of Union County. Other Wallowa County members are Enterprise Mayor Susan Roberts and Steve Adams of Alder Slope. Union County members are Elgin City Councilor Mark Stauffer, La Grande developer Mark Davidson and Gene Hardy, who owns property adjacent to the rail line. Jim Seifert, who works for the Oregon Department of Transportation and lives in Wallowa, has been appointed by both counties.
During the first year of operation, Idaho Northern will maintain and manage the line from Elgin to Wallowa. The railroad company has said it will open the line to Joseph if business allows. After the first year, the authority will assume management and maintenance of the rail line.
The counties purchased the railroad with a $2 million allocation from the Oregon Legislature and a $4.5 million loan from the state's Economic and Community Development Department.
The county commissioners have said that the loan will be repaid with funds generated by the railroad's operation.

Vincente Minnelli's Dream of Tony Hunter's Band Wagon's "Girl Hunt"
Silva, Arturo, Film Criticism
With its high degree of self-reflection, historical star awareness (the Fred Astaire persona), and laying bare of the musical's many elements, Vincente Minnelli's The Band Wagon (1953) has long been recognized along with Singin' In the Rain (Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly, 1952) and A Star Is Born (George Cukor, 1954) as one of those films that bring the classic phase of the Hollywood musical to a close. Similarities include all three belonging to the musical sub-genre "The Show Musical" (as defined by Rick Altman in The American Film Musical); both the Donen/Kelly and Minnelli films are written by Betty Comden and Adolphe Green; and the Minnelli and Cukor films incorporate details of the bio-filmographies of their stars, Astaire and Judy Garland. And, while Singin' In the Rain and A Star is Born are pretty straight-forward stories with narratives and numbers perfectly integrated from beginning to end, The Band Wagon's very short conclusion is preceded by a long sequence of four numbers, plus the famous "Girl Hunt," all of which appear to have almost no connection whatsoever to anything that has preceded them, besides bearing no clear--or even opaque--relation with each other. Most accounts of the film's long ending write it off in a casual "that's entertainment!" manner, thereby acknowledging the obvious--the end is odd and does not seem to make narrative sense--while also avoiding any real attempt at trying to account for it. But a careful reading of the elements of this long concluding section, and particularly the "Girl Hunt's" mise-enscene, can, I believe, not only clear up the "mystery of the mystery" of the "Girl Hunt," but of much more besides, giving The Band Wagon a hitherto unperceived coherency and wholeness that reaches even beyond itself. This paper will attempt such a reading, looking first at the film's various sources and at those four unconnected numbers as well as other issues the film raises, and read the whole as a bricolage of elements which, paradoxically, makes the film utterly Minnelli's own. The second part will offer a detailed reading of "The Girl Hunt," revealing it to be a dream of the hero's desire for the heroine and whose themes and images derive from the main body of The Band Wagon's narrative.
Part One: The Band Wagon
I. The Narrative
The Band Wagon is the story of Tony Hunter (Astaire), a former stage musical star now down on his luck. He is persuaded by his writer friends Lili and Lester Marton (Nanette Fabray and Oscar Levant) to star in their new musical, which they hope to have produced by Jeffrey Cordova (Jack Buchanan). Their idea is of a children's book writer, to be played by Tony, who moonlights by writing crime thrillers. But Cordova wants to turn the "light, intimate" musical (read: Low Art) into a "modern, musical morality play ... with meaning and stature" (read: High Art). He wants--gasp!--to turn it into a modern-day Faust. Further, he wants Tony's co-star to be the ballerina (read again: High Art) Gabrielle Gerard. (1) Tony is skeptical, but he is convinced to give it a try after Cordova and the Martons convince him in song what it's really all about: "That's Entertainment." However, Tony and Gabrielle meet very un-cute, take an instant dislike to one another, and during a rehearsal he walks out. Gabrielle comes to apologize, and they discover in the exquisite "Dancing in the Dark," (2) that they really can dance together. But come opening night, Faust (3) proves to be the flop that the disastrous pre-opening dress rehearsal revealed it would be. Finally, Tony, Gaby (as she comes to be called), and "the kids" (the team of supporting dancers and singers) decide to "yank out all that [Faustian] junk," go back to the original Marton script of The Band Wagon and try it out on the road. Even Cordova acquiesces: "One man has to be at the helm," he says. Then--and this is the point where the straight narrative breaks off--come a series of four different numbers, followed by "The Girl Hunt," and the brief conclusion, a declaration of love and a reprise of "That's Entertainment. …

Lou Reed is the Grinch who stole Susan Boyle's limelight this week. The Velvet Underground singer denied the usage of his song "Perfect Day" to be sung by the Scottish reality show sensation during her performance on "America's Got Talent" on Wednesday. Instead of singing another selection on the show, Boyle instead decided to just leave L.A. to head home.
While Boyle's rep is claiming that Reed took issue with Boyle's chops, Reed's rep says that the license hadn't been cleared in time for use in the U.S.
"Susan is very disappointed as she had been looking forward to it immensely. She is now on a plane heading back to London with a heavy heart. She would like to say thank you to all those fans who traveled miles to lend their support today," read a post on Boyle's website.
The snafu comes ahead of a new Susan Boyle effort, "The Gift," to be released in November.
For curious SuBo fans, a rehearsal of her "Perfect Day" can be heard at Idolator.

It's that time of year again.
View JESSWAHOO's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from JESSWAHOO
Thursday, March 20, 2014
I've been thinking a lot lately about what I need to motivate me and stick with my eating and exercise habits. Others talk about rewards when they get to certain goals, but I have a hard time creating those rewards for myself. It is similar to when I get asked what I want for my birthday or for Christmas - I always have a hard time coming up with an answer. I have things I like to do: I like to read and I like to stamp and make cards, but no one likes the "gift card to Amazon" answer that I give them. So, this is like asking myself what I want for my reward - I don't have a good answer. I get books for my Kindle no matter what. My husband came up with two great rewards for large goals: if I get to 145 then I can have a $250 shopping spree with Athleta (my new favorite clothing store) and when I get to my goal of 125, it will be a $500 shopping spree. Those are great, but I feel like I need smaller rewards along the way.
I do have some answers as for some new goals. The first one is where the title of this blog comes in. It is that time of year again for my twice a year physical test with the military. I have to weigh in (and under a certain amount) then do push ups, sit ups and swim. There are other cardio options too - run or do the elliptical, but I have always chosen to swim. I love swimming and it comes pretty naturally to me. I have a hard time making the time required in the run, where I can make the time on the swim pretty easily with out any practice. This year I have the goal to make an "excellent" score. I don't think I've done that in my 13 years since I was in Officer Candidate School. To do that, I need to do at least 78 sit ups and 34 push ups. I almost always make the "excellent" score in swimming - so I'm not as worried about that. The sit ups and push ups (especially sit ups) are my weakness. So that is where I will concentrate.
I also gave myself a goal of losing 15 pounds by the weigh in. It isn't a requirement - I could pass the weigh in right now; although barely (I'm at the cut off). But it is a way to have a smaller goal for myself. Weigh in is 15 May, so I have 9 weeks. I think it is a pretty realistic goal. If I make this goal, I will also be the lowest weight that I've ever been during my time in the military. I was 144 during OCS. This will make me 143. Here's hoping!

Your rewards are good. IMHO every person needs to choose rewards that are relevant to them. For me with A LOT of weight to loose I've chosen rewards that will help to get more results.
When I lost my first 5 lbs I bought a foam roller. At 10 lbs I'll probably get yoga blocks or exercise ball. These are little rewards for making a little difference. But it all adds up.
Good luck to you on your goal!

Just curious, who all is planning on racing this weekend?
I am planning on doing The Revenge of the Rattlesnake mountain bike race tomorrow. It is supposed to be a very grueling 30 plus miles. My primary goal is to just finish this one. I believe you earn bragging rights by just crossing the finish line.
After this race I will get a weekend off from racing, I will have to work all next weekend though, 12 - 18 hour days but it is still kind of a "rest" weekend. It's pretty bad but I have only had two weekends off from racing since February 25th.

Here's Tim Howard Doing Aaron Rodgers' Belt
I know, I know. You're probably thinking, who the hell is Tim Howard? Well, he's a soccer player. Futbol, in other parts of the world. He's the goalkeeper for the U.S. Men's National Team, plays for Everton in the English Premier League, which is like the NFL of soccer, and he's pretty fucking good.
On Saturday, Everton was playing Aston Villa, who's keeper is Howard's backup on the USMNT, Brad Guzan. So, big game and Howard was clutch.
Here, he's saving a Christian Benteke penalty kick. And when he does, he throws out Aaron Rodgers' championship belt. Or discount double check. Or whatever the fuck you want to call it.
Is Howard a Green Bay Packers fan? Doubt it. He's from Jersey.
Aaron Rodgers, however, has done gone international.
(Via SI)
Monty McMahon is one of the founders of Total Packers. He is probably the most famous graduate of UW-Oshkosh next to Jim Gantner.
Who is Aaron Rodgers? @Fitzscore1252–I'm so sorry you have a brain injury from playing so much passball that you can't find appropriate vocabulary words. But that's just one more reason for everyone to stop supporting passball, especially that played by the NFL.
BH Ring? Eeew! LMFAO, you've got your Butt Hole pierced!?!? Wow! TMI, Bruh… TMI.
Chocolate Star fish up in this heezy, yo.
Yeah, I've never heard of Football being called "Passball". Whoever comes up with stupid shit like this should be dangled by his Butthole ring over Wembly Stadium for the 49ers Jags game.

|ENERGATE INC. Patent applications
|Patent application number
|SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTELLIGENT DEMAND RESPONSE - A method and system for intelligent demand response by a load controller device connected to a load is provided. Demand response events generated by utilities can generate energy conservation however they can provide demand subpeaks during the event and can impact user comfort. In order to improve the energy profile and user comfort one or more event parameters from the DR event are generated. One or more temperature setpoints of the load controller device are modified to provide smooth setpoint transition between temperature setpoints using the generated one or more event parameters to shape electricity demand of the load to reduce an expected demand subpeak during the DR event. The modified one or more temperature setpoints can be applied at an associated time to control the load.
|HOLD MANAGEMENT IN AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLLER - A method for hold management in an environmental controller is provided. The controller controls heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment to environmental parameters defined by a user. The controller can follow a program schedule or operate in a schedule-free mode; however various hold events can be defined that override the schedule or schedule-free operation. The hold events can define target parameters to be maintained during the hold event. Multiple hold events can be defined where a priority of the hold events can be utilized to determine which hold event should be implemented, without cancelling the lower hold events.
|INFRARED CONTROLLABLE LOAD CONTROL SWITCH - A load control switch with an infra-red receiver to enable consumer Opt-out of load control events is provided. Load control switches are utilized by utilities to control power demand during peak periods by disconnecting remotely consumer loads. By using any infra-red remote control a consumer can Opt-out of a load control event by signalling to the load control switch that the load control event is to be masked therefore not disconnecting the electrical load from the electrical supply.
|AUXILLARY SWITCH FOR MULTIPLEXED CONTROL AND GROUND SIGNAL FROM A THERMOSTAT - An auxiliary switch is provided that allows a thermostat to use full wave rectification for power while still communicating control information to the auxiliary switch over a multiplexed ground-control line to control associated equipment.
|PORTABLE INFORMATION DISPLAY DOCKABLE TO A BASE THERMOSTAT - A thermostat system is provided that comprises a base thermostat for providing basic thermostat control and a portable information display (PID) unit, or dockable display, that provides an improved user interface. The PID unit can be docked to the base thermostat by being releasably mounted on top of a front portion of the base thermostat. The base thermostat provides control of an environmental control system, allowing the regulation of the temperature in a building. The PID unit may be used when it is mounted to the base thermostat or un-mounted from the base thermostat. The PID unit provides an improved user interface and experience over the base thermostat.
|GROUND WIRE ADAPTOR - A ground wire adaptor for operatively connecting a low-voltage control unit (e.g. a thermostat) requiring a three-wire connection to a three-wire system-under-control (e.g. a HVAC system) using a two-wire conductor. A ground terminal and an output control signal of the control unit are interconnected such that the output control signal, in the form of a half-wave rectified signal, is superimposed on the ground. The ground wire adaptor detects the half-wave rectified signal superimposed on the ground connection and generates a control output signal to be provided to the system-under-control responsive to the presence of the half-wave rectified signal (i.e. the control signal from the control unit). In another aspect of the invention the ground wire adaptor can be used to connect an 'N' function control unit to an 'N' function system-under-control using a two-wire conductor.
|SOLID-STATE SWITCH - A solid state switch that employs a controller driven input and MOSFET power switching devices is disclosed. The controller can test for a short-circuit on the load side of the MOSFET power switching devices before putting the switch in a sustained conductive state.

Fire and ice, dancing together chaotically behind a glossy surface.
That is the only way that you can describe the look in Jack's eyes.
Reluctantly, he lowers his staff. He stands it up straight, taking a defiant pose.
"What do you want, Pitch?" he asks, the anger apparent in his voice.
You can hear the smile on Pitch's face. "Now that's more like it. I'd like to ask a little…favor…of you."
"The answer's 'no,'" Jack fires back.
Pitch presses the dagger harder into you. A small whimper escapes your lips. "Tsk tsk. Such a pretty thing, too."
"Don't you dare!" Jack yells, taking up his staff once again.
Seemingly ignoring the command, Pitch leans down and whispers in your ear, though still loud enough for Jack to hear. "That necklace…did he give that to you? Oh, it suits you wonderfully. I assume it won't melt so long as you believe in him, am I correct?" He chuckles.
"It's a shame he won't hear me out, really," he continues. His eyes focus on Jack. "It does involve others finally believing in him, after all."
You can see the curiosity in Jack's expression, the previous flame dying out. He slightly lowers his staff.
"Ah, now I have his proper attention." Pitch stands up straight once again, releasing the tension on the blade just oh so slightly.
"You see, Jack," he addresses the winter spirit, "you and I share something in common. Nobody believes in us. We go unseen, unaddressed, lacking the attention that we deserve. We're alone in the world. But it doesn't have to be like that any longer."
"I'm listening," Jack says warily. His staff is now hanging loosely in his hand at his side.
"I have a plan. To get the children to believe…in the both of us." Jack raises his eyebrow. "It's as simple as this. Just join me."
"What's the catch?" You can tell that he's seriously considering the offer.
"There is none. Join me against the Guardians, and together we will make the children believe. Without the Guardians, without their wonder and hope and light, we'll be the only things left for them to believe in. You won't feel so empty anymore."
"And they…they'll believe in me? They'll see me?"
"Of course they will! Join me, Jack. Of course…you'll have to leave this"—he jiggles your arm a little to indicate that he is speaking about you—"behind. Romance will just get in the way and hold you back in more ways than you know."
You look at Jack, pleading with him.
Don't. Please.
He returns the gaze.
After momentary confusion and soul-searching, you finally get your unspoken response.
I won't. We're going to get out of here safely. Trust me.
You nod so faintly that Pitch doesn't take notice and the blade doesn't scrape against you, the fear beginning to leave you.
"I'm sorry Pitch, but I'm just not interested. I'll come up with some other way to be seen."
Pitch sighs. "It seems as though you won't change your mind. Fine. But don't think you're getting off so easy. I propose a deal."
"As long as you let (your name) go."
"Stay out of things. Don't meddle in my plans. Be a…neutral party. No joining or helping out the Guardians. I can't have you go ruining all of the work I've done. Fair enough?"
Jack hesitates, then slowly nods.
Pitch takes the knife from its threatening position and pushes you over to Jack. You fall into his arms.
He helps you up. "Are you all right?"
You nod, rubbing your throat. You're shaking a little from the traumatic experience. "Let's just get out of here."
"Oh, and one more thing, Jack," comes the velvety voice once again.
He looks back over at Pitch as he takes your hand, readying the two of you for flight.
The Nightmare king smirks. "A word of warning. Love is not the safest thing for someone like you."
"Gee, thanks," Jack sarcastically retorts. A gust of wind later, the two of you are flying up and out of the shadows, leaving Pitch far behind.
The Nightmare nudges Pitch's arm.
"Don't worry," he tells it as he pets the side of its face. "A power like that won't go wasted. He'll find out soon enough. He'll have no choice. Besides, you really think I would try once and give up? I will lure him in once again, when the time is right. One thing will play into another. Patience is all we need."
He walks with the Nightmare down the path, enveloping himself in familiar shadows.
"All things are in our favor, even with Jack staying neutral."
The Nightmare leaves to carry out its messenger duties.
"We will continue to keep a close eye on Jack Frost."

Yay, Chapter 32!

Chapter 31: [link]
Chapter 33: [link]
Since there was some confusion on chapter 31: Ok. So the snowflake necklace never started melting. It reassured you in your dark hour and made you believe even more in Jack's abilities to get out the two of you out of this situation in safety. The drip heard at the end of the chapter was just the sounds of Pitch's lair, which is located beneath Venice (as told by the official art book). Hope that cleared things up!

watch out he is planning something.
i'm mad cause i'm in Florida where it does not snow only cold gusts of outrageous winds!.....
doesn't snow where i'm at either, except for really high up in the mountains. and even then, it's more like ice than snow.
I kinda wish that Pitch and Jack got into a huge fight, and I'd just be sitting there with a big bucket of popcorn, cheering them on with the nightmares....
Yeah, Venice sounds a bit like malice....
Somehow it fits that his evil lair is below Venice..... Anywho, onward!!!!!!!
OH GOLLY!!! IM ALLLIIIIIIIIIVVVVVEEE!!! ....heh heh...I missed the 'e' like five times with that!! ...kept hitting the @ button...lol.
lol and I just thought the drip was some kind of head-sweat to underline the tension x'D
PITCH!!! You sly devil! What are you planning?!?!
This is so intense!!! But Jack saved me/reader! Yay! ^^
This is so intense!!! But Jack saved me/reader! Yay! ^^
THANKS FOR THREADING MY DAUGHTER, I HOPE YOU WOULD NEVER DO IT AGAIN (In deaf tone)
we had a blizzard today and i keep finding Jack making ice and snow here and there...
...He said Jack can't help the guardians....He said nothing about me. xD
Well~ that was scary .0.
Well...It's better than leaving the environment around his lair quiet, adding some anonymous sound would break that silence. Giving it a better WHAM end to my feels.
yeah, plus I wanted to utilize some of the info that the art book gave me. I feel bad that it ended in some minor confusion though xD
thank you!
Question, I know it's wierd but how do you do that icon?^^^ and she IS pretty awesome XD
awesome chapter again^^ ah man i hope that "i" will kick butt some time too, i don't want to be helpless and saved all the time. i want to have some weapons >:3 anyway, keep up the great work^^
Give me powers don't make me be the damsel in distress i want to be able to fight for myself make manny put a spell on the necklace to give me powers or something as long asi'm not helpless

Last night Carbon Leaf , a classic rock band with a little bit of pop and a dash of folk mixed in, packed the Showbox at the Market with enthusiastic audience members ranging from eight to 80.
Barry Privett of Carbon Leaf at the Showbox - Market
As a new fan of Carbon Leaf I was surprised at the variety of followers this five-some has amassed over the years. From the feisty middle-aged lady next to me (who had no problem telling the rowdy folk in front of her to stop dancing) to the teen lovers on my other side (who really needed to get a room) the audience devotedly sang along with every song and I soon found their jumpin' and jivin' contagious. The dudes of Carbon Leaf, along with the surprisingly entrancing opening act, Trevor Hall, spanned generation gaps to create a high energy, passionate performance.While the passion of lead singer, Barry Privett, was a little much at times (mostly when he would stare intently at the ceiling), these spirited performers definitely knew how to put on a good show and keep the energy flowing. This may be why their songs performed live, especially fan favorite, "Love Loss Hope Repeat," took on a much fuller and captivating sound than when listened to online. Make sure to check out their new CD Nothing Rhymes With Woman.
Prior to Carbon Leaf taking the stage was opening act Trevor Hall who sported a very Venice Beach hippie look. I'll admit I was a bit skeptical when he started his 45 minute set with guttural moans that reminded me of a new-age tribal meditation track. However, I was soon blown away when he proceeded to perform chilling songs that sounded somewhere between Jack Johnson, Bob Marley and Matisyahu (whom Hall has previously toured with).
Lyrics from his new song "Where is the Love?" challenged the audience as he stated "So many Gods but no love for the people." He continued to send chills down my spine with new release "Unity" (co-written with Matisyahu) that crooned "I don't want to reason anymore about the one I love/the one I love/I don't want to reason anymore about God above." His songs carried powerful political messages of compassion and unity that captivated the liberal Seattle audience. His newest CD which is self titled comes out July 28th.

Red Bay decorated for fallPublished 6:01am Wednesday, October 10, 2012
RED BAY – With the crisp, cool air the county has experienced this week, residents can tell that the fall season has settled over the area, but if you head over to the west end of the county, there will be no doubt that fall is here.
The city of Red Bay is currently decked out in autumn attire thanks to the annual "Red Bay Streetscapes" event that has been hosted by the Red Bay Garden Club for the past five years.
There are 45 total streetscapes displayed at business, churches and organizations throughout the town.
This year's theme is "A Taste of Home" and the autumn displays feature food-related themes.
Rosalyn Fabianke, chairwoman of the Garden Club's Streetscapes Committee, said the theme follows closely with the theme the Alabama Tourism Department set for 2012-2013, which is "The Year of Alabama Food."
"This is our fifth year to promote the streetscape project, and it just seems to grow and grow each year," Fabianke said.
"Our original purpose was just to beautify the town because, at the time, it was the first year the economy had turned bad and we wanted to do something that would make the town look a little better and give the businesses and residents something to do to bring a little cheer to the downtown area."
Fabianke said the streetscapes were just anything fall-related at first but when the Alabama Tourism Department started having a theme for each year, the Garden Club decided to have the streetscapes follow a theme as well.
"Last year Alabama Tourism's theme was 'The Year of Alabama Music,' so our Streetscape theme was 'Homespun Harmony,' and the streetscapes all featured musical elements," Fabianke said.
"This year's streetscapes are just gorgeous and they feature some really fun things like tables all set and ready for dinner and displays of fresh produce. Everyone who has participated has done a great job with their displays."
To go along with the streetscapes this year, Fabianke said there would also be a special even called the "Streetscape Stroll" that would take place Oct. 18 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
"Mayor Forsythe contacted me and said he had several people who thought an event like this would be a good idea so people could go through town and view all the lovely streetscapes these businesses and organizations have worked so hard on," Fabianke said. "Of course we thought that was a wonderful idea, so the city is hosting that event and we hope many people come out that evening."
Fabianke said the Red Bay City Hall would be open from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. to provide maps that pinpoint each streetscape.
"We have many streetscapes in the downtown area but we have them over near the hospital, out Golden Road and almost to the Mississippi line," she said. "There are lots to see, so anyone going on the tour will want to stop by city hall and pick up a map so they don't miss any."
She also said the stroll is a good way for residents to see each streetscape and be able to choose a favorite to vote for.
"We have a people's choice award that we give out and voting will take place Oct. 17 through Oct. 19," she said. "The ballots will be collected at city hall so this will be a good opportunity for people to see the streetscapes and then turn in their ballots when they are finished."
Fabianke said she hoped this stroll would also be a good opportunity to draw visitors into the town.
"Red Bay is a small town, but we're a town that's on the move," Fabianke said. "We have lots to offer here and we have a beautiful town and we hope visitors will see that and want to come back."
Fabianke said anyone wishing to participate in the Streetscape Stroll can pick up a map at Red Bay City Hall any time between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Oct. 18.

Meet Rachel
I frequently babysat and helped out at a home day care all through high school. I have also nannied full-time for a family with four young boys, ages 6 months, 2, 4, and 6. I got them ready for school/preschool, prepared breakfast, helped with homework, and cleaned. I have also helped provide child care on base for MOPS classes, (moms of preschoolers). I provided child care in my home for a family of 2, preschool and early elementary school. I provided all meals, planned field trips, and helped with homework. I am a stay at home mom looking to provide care for one family in my home. I have a little boy who is a year and half, and am expecting my second little boy by the end of May. We love to do arts and crafts, read, play outside, and other learning activities. I'd love to have a child or two around the same age for him to play and learn with, but I am more than happy to care for school age children as well. School drop offs/pick ups can most likely be arranged. I'd love to hear from you if you think we may be a fit for your family!
