"Don't bother...." Cardiff Bay Visitor Centre - CLOSED Tip by sourbugger
Cardiff Bay Visitor Centre - CLOSED, Cardiff: 5 reviews and 10 photos
'The Tube' to me is either a music show on channel 4 presented by Jools Holland (boy that shows my age) or the nickname for the Underground in London. it can't really be applied to a tin shed on the edge of Cardiff bay that is laughingly called a 'visitors centre'. If you were a visitor from another planet it might be useful, but I dont call a few posters, an old dear with some leaflets, a kayak and a wooden model of the bay an 'attraction'.

Defenders of Ardania - ReviewVGChartz Staff, posted on 17 March 2012 / 4,037 Views
Tower defense games are not currently in short supply. The rise of digital distribution has seen this genre thrive especially on the PC and iOS devices. While at first, you may think Defenders of Ardania is yet another tower defense game, you should know that it is actually in the subgenre called tower war game. You not only have to build towers to defend against your opponents troops, you will also have to send out your own troops in real time to take down your enemy.
Defenders of Ardania is set in a fantasy world where you command an army of humans to fight the undead, gaining dwarf and elven allies along the way. Each level involves creating an effective defense using towers (what else?) while simultaneously attacking the enemy base with ground and air units. The story, as it were, is delivered to you through the fully voiced pre and post-battle dialog. The main narrator sounds like a person trying to impersonate Sean Connery who has only studied for the role by listening to other Sean Connery impersonators, which is oddly hilarious. By and large the voiceover work is serviceable and definitely better than having to read silent text boxes.
You might need to be eagle (king) eyed to read this text on your TV screen
Specifically, that's because said text boxes are right on the edge of what you could consider a readable size. See, Defenders of Ardania started life as an iOS title which was ported onto the PC and Xbox Live Arcade. As is typically the case with these tablet to TV ports there is something a little off with the HUD. You will usually be within a couple of feet of your tablet (or your computer monitor), but at least ten feet from your TV. This scaling problem can lead to frustration especially in a game like this that requires careful selecting of which units you are wishing to spend your resources on. It is not game breaking by any means, but could be a barrier to entry for some.
Speaking of barriers to entry, there will also be those who are turned off by the steep learning curve present in the game. Even though a very clear and helpful tutorial plays out as you go through your campaign, there is more trial and error than there should be for a strategic game. Again, not game breaking, but I know a few gamers will be turned off by the experience of losing without understanding why. Those that stick it out will eventually figure out the proper balance of defending and attacking. In about the middle of the campaign everything clicks and you can see and appreciate the subtleties of the system… but then 'it' happens. The game becomes too easy. You realize you can overwhelm the opponent AI by spamming your quickest, cheapest troops and repeatedly casting protective spells on them turning them into speedy tanks. Suddenly you are the guy who brought a gun to a knife fight.
Fighting fire with the awesome power of purple
This, of course, is corrected by going online, which becomes Defenders of Ardania's saving grace. You have the choice of a free for all, 2 vs computer, or 2 vs 2 on any of the campaign mode's 18 levels with up to three other players. Playing against real human opponents lets the game stretch its legs and really show you what it's capable of. A good battle can last anywhere from ten minutes to beyond an hour depending on the skill level of your opponents. There is a lack of local multiplayer, which is a shame, but par for the course in the current industry.
The package seems a little pricey at 1200 MS points (or $15 in real money), especially given that the iPad version is a third of the price. This is one of those odd cases where the value is not hindered by the strength of replay but on the strength of how the game gets you to that point. The campaign basically acts like a boot camp to see if you're prepared to handle the challenges you'll find in multiplayer. If you can be patient and play the game long enough for it to all fall into place in your head, then you will probably get your money's worth.
As far as presentation goes the whole package feels just above average. The music sets the mood without being annoying but it is also not engaging or memorable. While the graphics are nice and the art style pleasing, it suffers in the lack of focus it gives the player. There will be so much happening on screen, with towers attacking troops, the troops themselves working their way through the grid maze, and magical powers that it all starts to blur at some point. It doesn't help that you and your enemies' forces use the exact same path and just sort of walk through each other (I would have loved to have seen ground battles taking place). While the different troops and towers do all look different, they don't truly look different enough. You can zoom in but your two choices are far away or 'not-quite-as-far-away-but-not-all-that-close'. It can be difficult to pick out your troops from the opponent's; even the towers start to look alike in the heat of battle. Since part of the strategy is deciding which troops to send out, it is frustrating to not easily be able to tell which troops are failing to reach the goal. The only way to do it is to completely keep your eye on the specific unit and follow them, seeing how they do. Not an easy (or pleasant) task when you're supposed to be a powerful eye-in-the-sky commander.
The right lane is for minions exploding with purple only.
The main concern fans of the genre will have is how the game feels using a controller. I am happy to say that everything is fluid and easy to use. Sure, there can be the occasional fraction of a second delay with button presses, but the cursor moves swiftly and selecting units and towers always feels accurate. It is one of those rare tower games where you don't feel handicapped by not having a mouse or touch screen.
In a rather meta way, Defenders of Ardania requires that the player gets past the game's own defenses. It puts up barriers like a steep learning curve and visually chaotic gameplay that players must destroy by sending wave after wave of their free time and patience to fight past. Once you break through you can enjoy the spoils of the deep and satisfying multiplayer mode with other like-minded players. If you want a quick and casual tower defense game, stick to playing Plants Vs Zombies. If you're willing to stick it out for the long-haul, give Defenders of Ardania a try.
This review is based on an Xbox Live Arcade copy of Defenders of Ardania, provided by the publisher.

My first attempt at drawing Drew Saturday from The Secret Saturdays. I realize now that her legs should be longer. I made her boobs bigger on purpose, though. Hopefully I'll get better at drawing her because I have all kinds of nasty things I want to do to her. He he he.

She's hot
Interesting how shes got Shego's voice and Drakkens first name
Thanks. This was my first ever attempt at drawing her. It is a hard art style to emulate.
Nice work, would love to see you draw her more
Just like the original!
Amazing drawing! Only thing that looks odd is the eyes though but everything else is great.
Naughty yet oh so nice. Glad to see you kept working away at her
WOWWWWWWWWWWWW.............very sexy
I have that thoughts too!! *¬*
Nice to finally meet the person who made this picture wildpegasus13 and some damn fine work on her bigger rack, nice touch.
Hope you draw more of her, she so deserves to have more artwork of her here, lol.
Keeps it up wildpegasus13, nuff said!
Hope you draw more of her, she so deserves to have more artwork of her here, lol.
Keeps it up wildpegasus13, nuff said!
Thanks. I have a few more ideas for Mrs. Saturday. Stay tooned!
stop this man please
Are you serious?
Yes i am please don't do this
Sorry, but this is what I do. I love the character, that's why I draw her this way, because I think she's sexy. Many other artists here feel the same and do similar works. I'm sorry if it bothers you.
It is not right i have a little sister and she loves the saturdays and Drew is the one she likes best and when she went to google to look for pictures of her...What could she find it was like a porn site,it could have bad influence on chuldren Pleace don.t put pictures like that abaut her on the internet.pleace don.t do this
Well this pic isn't really that bad and all the others I've done have a mature content block on them so she won't see them unless the mature filter on google is turned off. There are plenty of other artists doing similar works of her and other toon characters so I'm not the only one. I cannot do anything about other sites or artists. I am very sorry if your little sister unfortunately sees something inappropriate but my art is intended for adults and sometimes young people will accidentally come across it. I will not stop expressing myself as others do simply because your sister or another young person might accidentally see it. I truly am sorry if my work bothers you.
By the way Drew is pretty cool
Good to know wild and much like that other shot with her and the pet kmomodo, damn that women is hot, lol.
awesomely sexy
I really like the model of the design drew saturday. it is one of the most interesting characters in anime that I have seen so far.
cool picture.
cool picture.
I agree, she is a very sexy looking cartoon even though I'm sure that wasn't their intention. She's got that cool white hairdo and long legs. Thanks for the compliment.
Zack: Hey Fisk, let's Google Mom!
Fisk: Wushewabuh?
Zack: Okay, well there's this picture here of-OMG!!!
Fisk: Wushewabuh?
Zack: Okay, well there's this picture here of-OMG!!!
Heck, that's nothing. He'll really go blind with the stuff I have planned for her later.
Hey man why do you have to do this chuldren look at heer don.t you have something better to do she is great why do you make karicatures of her
Wow, I will never view this show the same way agian. XD Great job though. I don't know if it was intentional but this almost perfectly mimics the shows art style.
Thanks. That was pretty much the reaction I was going for, to totally change the way people see Drew. And yes, I do try to draw in the same style. I have plans to try drawing her in my style and in a more realistic style sometime, too.
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet ass drawin
Great pic!

The North Face Phoenix 2 FootprintView Larger Image
Your plan to spend the next month desert camping will surely abuse your Phoenix 2 Tent, but The North Face makes the Phoenix 2 Footprint to stop tent floor wear and tear before it begins. The tough layer of water-resistant nylon stands between your tent's floor and the ancient, jagged lava rocks beneath it. Since it covers the entire base of your Phoenix 2 Tent (sold separately), the footprint also adds a small layer of insulation against the cold ground and another layer of water-resistance to keep out the April showers.

The brakes have a nice finish powder coated finish but there are a few areas where the paint was missed or the caliper got banged on something that chipped the paint exposing the primer underneath. The uncovered areas are not huge and for the price I'm not too worried about it. I bought some high temp paint at my local auto shop and touched up the spots. I didn't have the time to intiate and return and see if another set was better. I'm assuming they will all be similar.

In Papua New Guinea, Banana Sex Cult prompts police action
Cargo cults spring up when indigenous cultures intersect with a more technologically advanced people: colonists + the indigenous, conquerors + the subjugated, armies + unfortunate locals. Even mundane items introduced by the strangers are sometimes seen as mysterious and even divine; when the visitors hit the road, a queer spiritualism grows up around the artifacts left behind.
Cargo cults have been documented since the 1800s, but the most famous examples popped up during and after WWII, when the Japanese — and then the Allied forces — dropped tons of equipment on previously unexplored but inhabited South Pacific islands. When the military forces moved on, local spiritual leaders prayed for more cargo to arrive. Hence: cargo cult.
A local religious figure in a tiny community in Papua New Guinea has put a new spin on the classic cargo cult. Rather than pray for durable goods, this one religious leader is promising bananas — in exchange for getting dirty in the village square.
According to village official Titus Namusa, the unnamed leader promised his followers "their banana fruit would multiply 10-fold every time they had sex in public." But don't mistake the so-called Banana Cult for a bunch of potassium-loving hippies. Mr. Namusa says villagers are forced to participate, and he claims to have been held captive for four months.
Yes, it's a weird story. But don't jump to conclusions quite yet. Here's more from Papua New Guinea's Post Courier:
A sex cult – where members are promised a bumper banana crop if they engage in public sex – has surfaced in the Tekadu area of Wau in the Morobe Province. The Banana Cult is headed by a man from Yamine village.
The man and his followers have been engaged in illicit public sex for the past four months and have forced other villagers under threat of violence to participate.
The cult activities were brought to light by Yamine village court chairman Titus Namusa who escaped captivity one night and walked 12 hours to Wau to report the matter…
"The chairman was threatened by the cult leader that he would be murdered if he reported the alleged illegal activity to the authorities in Wau and was told to keep shut and be quiet about it." Yamine is a tiny hamlet of not more than 30 people in Ward 20 of Wau Local Level Government.According to Mr Namusa, the villagers resorted to cult activities, claiming the government had forgotten them…
"The people are armed and we will move in there and talk to them and will also apprehend the cult leader and bring him back to Wau to be formally arrested and charged for the alleged illegal activities," Insp Busil added Mr Namusa confirmed the cult movement and said young men and women including married couples were walking around naked and having sex in public places without being ashamed of themselves.
"The leader told the people that they have not seen any government services and have resorted to other means of seeing services trickling down to their door steps and ordered about 10 people to get involved in the alleged activity," Mr Namusa said.
It's tempting to chortle and chuckle at dem crazy savages. And no doubt, this story is about to ignite the Fark message boards. But there's more to the tale. Yamine is already a controversial region at the center of the Wafi Gold Project, a high-stakes mining operation that's majority owned by Rio Tinto Exploration but managed by Provincial Gold Fields, which is held by Australian Gold Fields.
With several mines already operating and more being prepped, a number of local clans are seeking injunctions to halt further progress on the project, which utilizes 50,000 hectares of various clans' lands. One such clan, the Babuaf, want $2 million in compensation. That's not so outlandish when you consider that one gold mine in the area returned a "cash operating surplus" of $3.2 million during a single quarter of 2003.
My point is — there's a lot of money exchanging hands in the region. Who knows what tactics will be employed to clear the lands of pesky clansmen. According to the Post Courier,"police will begin a special operation at first light today to reach Yamine."
If branding a clan as a depraved banana sex cult means the government will intercede with force, then so be it. Who's watching, anyway?

Keep in mind that the official Disney website gets it wrong. Often. Times I mean.
The distance between parks really is negligible. There really isn't much to the travel between the parks and the onsite resorts. Loads of discussions center around travel time and that's just silly, as far as I'm concerned.
The only real travel issue is that sometimes you have to wait longer than you would like for transport. That is sometimes due to long lines, or sometimes due to not enough busses running. If there is a noticeable back up, WDW will put more busses on.
So, all that to say, pick the two parks you want and go from there!
AKL in the morning and another park in the afternoon is a good mix.
EPCOT in the morning, afternoon and DHS for Fantasmic is another good mix. You can actually walk between EPCOT and DHS.

Fire Department & EMS Staff Scheduling: Halstead Fire/EMS Department
The Halstead Fire/EMS Department engages 25-30 volunteer personnel, who are responsible for a 90-square-mile area encompassing 5,000 inhabitants around the town of Halstead, Kansas.
Anderson (Andy) Lowe is the Director of EMS and Deputy Chief of Halstead Fire/EMS. According to the department's website, "The mission of Halstead Fire/EMS is to provide our residents the highest level of proactive and reactive fire, rescue, and emergency medical service response. As one team, we will work together to provide the excellence in service that our community expects and deserves."
The Challenge
Kansas state law requires all EMS departments to have at least one person designated on-call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Chief Lowe had previously handled that scheduling requirement by printing out an Excel spreadsheet each month with shift blocks.
EMS volunteers would come into the station to sign up on paper. At the beginning of each week, the schedule was transcribed onto a large whiteboard at the station.
"All of my volunteers had to come to station to sign up for shifts," Lowe said, describing the shortcomings of the process that propelled him to find an online scheduling system.
"If changes occurred — which happens often — I had to drive to the station to update the schedule," Lowe said. "People could not work on or access their schedule from home. Even if folks called me to ask their schedule, I had to return to the station to check it unless I remembered to bring a copy home that day."
Lowe chose Shiftboard's online scheduling software to provide web-based access from anywhere for the EMS volunteers at Halstead.
Shiftboard Fire Department Scheduling System
"When we introduced Shiftboard, nearly all of our volunteers were happy with it right away," he said. "There were a few anti-computer people, but overall it has been a big hit."
Ease-of-use was also a big help. "It is a user-friendly screen to make changes, or get things back to the way they were if I make a mistake," Lowe said.
Shiftboard has also been helpful for compliance and reporting requirements. In Kansas, state inspectors can stop in at any time during the year to ensure there is 24x7 EMS coverage. With Shiftboard, Lowe just drops a printout of the Shfitboard schedule into a file each month for the inspector to review.
Shiftboard has made scheduling and communication much easier. "It has been extremely handy for me," Lowe said. "I like that it blocks folks from removing themselves on the calendar inside of 2 weeks. And nobody needs to call for schedule information anymore because the system is accessible from any web browser. "

To all that read this:Melissa Butz
Parent to Agnes King – Jump Start Girls Kemp Mill Elementary
8 Philadelphia Ave. Takoma Park, Md. 20912 Sept. 12, 2012
To whom it concerns:
I am writing this letter to acknowledge and support the great efforts and mission of Community Bridges of Maryland. I served as a foster parent to a wonderful, inspiring & traumatized little girl by the name of Agnes King. Aggie joined our family when she was 8 years old through the * Mentor of Maryland that works with children in foster care that have a series of medical complexities. I was so grateful that the school counselor, Ms. Jennifer Holt of Kemp Mill Elementary contacted me regarding the collaborative efforts they had with a local non- profit organization known as:" Community Bridges".
I had shared with the school Principal and Counselor my concerns as it related to Aggies need to socialize with her peers. Aggie came to our family very withdrawn, scared and a loner. She had undergone allot of trauma as a child and was in foster care since birth. I came to know of Aggie through a former family member that was her respite. I knew that aggie was a gift from God to us, for I too, was in the foster care system, however I didn't have it as difficult as Agnes. I shared with Aggie that while I was undergoing my childhood trials and tribulations that I wished there was a "girl power" program out there such as Community Bridges. Given Agnes' birth mothers' habits, Agnes was born without allot of her vital organs and lower extremities that we take for granite. Agnes had very low self esteem and was used to being a "victim" verses "victor" and she just co-existed….nothing excited Agnes. After a year, Community Bridges was revealed to me and the school counselor felt this would be great for Aggie.
When I met with the Elementary School manager of Jump start program, I was more excited for Aggie then she was. It was just another program and commitment (was her take). However, after a month of her involvement, I noticed aggie started to be more inquisitive as to what "leaders" were and if she was going to be a leader…is that the same as a Doctor? For Agnes had gone through so much medically, I fostered the idea of becoming a "kidney" specialist and she wanted to be a veterinarian. WOW- Aggie is actually speaking of "future" goals.
This was a new little girl, which was blossoming. I contacted Community Bridges in 2010(2009-2011- participant) and shared of her new lease on life and I thanked them for making such an impact on her life, as it related to self image, self esteem and a positive outlook. Agnes would never forget about her afterschool commitments that involved "CB". Ms Lopez was the ED at the time and I recall crying over the phone and sharing the caterpillar to the butterfly affect they had on her. Agnes would doodle "butterflies" on her paper and that is how we (Community Bridges) related her life changes to…..spread your wings and fly. I am sure the Principal (Floyd Starnes) would agree and support my observations and testimonies!!! She was excited that she was "selected" for this program. She would say today is "girl power- for the hour". I knew it was Wednesday and she was meeting with "CB" today Agnes took pride in herself, hygiene and a genuine interest in her health, life and her futuristic dreams. I am so proud of her and I know that Community Bridges played an intricate part in Agnes' growth. She learned how to eliminate the woes and replace it with "I CAN". THANK YOU…. TO ALL OF THE ANGELS OF COMMUNITY BRIDGES. Love, Melissa and family

|Date of Introduction:
|16 December 2008
|Select Committee:
|Justice and Electoral
|Date report presented:
|26 June 2009
|Published: 24 September 2009Prepared by John McSoriley BA LL.B, BarristerLegislative AnalystP: (04) 471-9626 (Ext. 9626)F: (04) 471-1250
|Caution: This Digest was prepared to assist consideration of the Bill by members of Parliament. It has no official status.Although every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, it should not be taken as a complete or authoritative guide to the Bill. Other sources should be consulted to determine the subsequent official status of the Bill.
The aim of this Bill as introduced is to amend the Domestic Violence Act 1995, the Sentencing Act 2002 and the Bail Act 2000 to improve and strengthen the domestic violence legislative regime.
The Bill as introduced is described in Bills Digest No 1655.
Main Provisions
Police safety orders
The Select Committee has recommended changing the term "Police order" in the Bill to "Police safety order" and clarifying that where a person is arrested for an offence that is not an offence involving domestic violence, but is an offence, under any enactment, involving the use of violence against the relevant person, an order may still be issued to ensure the safety (rather than just the "immediate" safety) of that person. Other detailed amendments in relation to such an order are recommended including the insertion of a requirement that all firearms licences (as well as all weapons) are to be surrendered by the person subject to the order ( (Part 1, Clause 7, inserting New Part 6A into the Act, amending the title of Part 6, substituting the term "Police safety order" for the term "Police order" throughout the Part and the Bill, amending New Sections 124A-124E).
Service of order and arrest and detention powers relating to service
The Select Committee has recommended that it be provided in the Bill that a Police safety order must be served as soon as practicable on the person against whom the order is issued and if an order is not served within 48 hours from the time of issue, it lapses. Power is also given to a constable who is proposing to issue a Police safety order to detain the person concerned for a period, not exceeding two hours, that may be necessary for the constable to:
- obtain authorisation if the constable is not a "qualified constable" under the Act;
- issue the order; or
- serve the order.
The Select Committee has also recommended the addition to this provision of an offence, carrying as a maximum penalty a fine of $500, to cover situations where a person against whom an order is to be issued fails to remain where directed by the constable, so that arrangements can be made for the order to be issued and served. A person may be arrested for this offence without warrant (Part 1, Clause 7, inserting new Part 6A into the Act, inserting New Sections 124FA and 124FB).
Failure or refusal to comply with order
The Select Committee has recommended new and more detailed provisions to clarify how the Police and the District Court deal with a person who fails or who refuses to comply with an order (Part 1, Clause 7, inserting New part 6A into the Act, substituting New Section 124I and inserting New Sections 124IA-124IF).
Protection orders under the Sentencing Act
The Select Committee has recommended that the courts be able to issue a protection order against an offender where the victim of the offence has already made an application for a protection order and that application is awaiting determination in a Family Court or District Court. Those existing proceedings in the Family Court or District Court for a protection order would then end (Part 2, Clause 9 of the Bill, inserting New Section 123B into the Sentencing Act, deleting paragraph (c) of subsection (1) and adding subsections (4 and (5)).

Edit Article
How to Get a Girl if You Have a Bad Reputation
So, you have a bad reputation - maybe as a bit of a thug, bad boy or player. Your reputation is in shreds (but maybe you don't realise!) however you want a girlfriend.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Remember, it is better to start with a girl you went out with briefly than a new one. If she agreed to see you, she probably liked you in the first place. She may still have you on her mind.
2When you have a bad reputation the key to a girl's heart is flattery. It works almost every time. Younger woman are particularly good with this.
3Do not choose the fittest, most attractive girl you know. Pretty, popular confident girls are the ones who you can generally charm the most. They are the ones who refuse to do things so they don't get a reputation-wait til the next night, secretly they will have wanted it the whole time! Also, a nicer, pretty girl will make you seem nicer and less of a player to other women.
4If you have piercings or tattoos do not hide them, say they remind you of good times. She may think you spend time with your friends rather than running after girls (even if you do.)
5Because of your bad boy attitude, her friends may tell her not to go out with you. She may in turn say that you were nice but a little creepy. This is probably because she doesn't want to agree with them or argue completely.
6If you do think she is afraid of of you, she can quite easily be won over-it may be her way of playing "dumb." If she is scared of you she may be easier "prey." She will be more willing to meet up with you (because she's scared) and then she'll find out what a great guy you actually are.
7Tone up and go to the gym.
8Remember to wash, shower,use deodorant.
9It's better to dump her than cheat on her.
10Remember if she replies to your texts or calls she may want to see you.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Don't cheat on her.
- Remember to constantly want her and "adore" her-even if you don't!
- Love her-pretend to even if you don't.
- You could get into trouble if you go out with a girl and pressure her.

Friends who want to go "semi" paleo, is that legit?
Posted 14 January 2013 - 04:18 PM
Many of my friends and coworkers are non-paleo but express interest in sort of doing it or trying it out. The thing is, I feel like it's pointless for them to try it and not go whole hog. Doesn't it negate the benefits if they eat clean during the week and go nuts on the weekends? Here are two examples:
Friend 1: Eats "paleo" (I don't even know what that means to her) during the week, allows weekends off.
Friend 2: Wants to eat "paleo-lite" which means: keeping rice and potatoes (in moderation) and alcohol (not in moderation). They want to eliminate grains and sugar.
Ugh!This frustrates me so much. I used to tell my friends,"Don't bother, just keep eating how you're eating" because people who are wish-washy bother me. But since the New Year I've been more like,"That's great! Let me know if you have questions. Make sure to eat lots of veggies with your protein."
What do you suggest? And does it even make sense for these people to try to go paleo at all why semi-hanging on to their old lifestyles or is it doing more harm than good?

I agree with everyone, some people need baby steps.
Posted 22 January 2013 - 02:18 PM
I think the same "all in or why bother" approach to dietary changes can be troubling. Perhaps they won't get spectacular results from their half-in approach, but if they learn that they feel better while eating paleo, that can be strong motivation to make further good changes.

Men's Time of the Month
Biologists in Sweden will furnish conclusive evidence that men have
"periods" analogous to a woman's menstrual cycle. They seem to
correspond to changes in the relationship between Earth and the planet
Mars, the biologists will claim. At the peak of the male "marstral cycle,"
which can last up to 10 days a month, the adrenal glands release a
hormone which make men more likely to be irritable, more skilled at
disguising their irrational impulses with logical explanations, out of touch
with their feelings, and prone to violence and poor judgment. There's also
a vulnerable phase preceding the period, which the biologists will dub
PMS, or Pathological Macho Stress.

But I'm unsure if you're staying there, or just grabbing the chest by the projector and returning back to the bridge, to cross it and get to the other projector (so there's no point in coming back to the area later).
Can you actually go back to Disney Gulch then? On my game, when I first enter the Mad Doctor's lab for the boss fight, both projectors shut off, so I don't think you can just head back through the projector again straight away? At least you got the film reel, I chose the wrong path if I remember correctly, so I had to return to get it anyway!

There is nothing, I repeat NOTHING English speaking for women and children in Ashdod. Ashdod SUCKS!!! I lived there for three years when my Hebrew was really bad. It was hell.

Do you have a doctor? My doctor was Dr Kowalski - I was with Maccabi. She's pretty good but always runs REALLY late.

Gillard Tops Abbott as Preferred Leader as Labor Support Slips
Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard overtook opposition leader Tony Abbott as the nation's preferred leader for the first time in six months even as support for her Labor government declined, a poll showed.
Gillard's rating as preferred prime minister rose to 40 percent from 39 percent two weeks earlier, her highest rating since July, according to a Newspoll survey of 1,143 people Nov. 18-20. Support for Abbott as preferred leader slipped 5 points to 35 percent, the lowest in nine months, according to the poll published by the Australian newspaper today.
The governing Labor Party continues to trail the Liberal-National coalition, with support falling two points from a seven-month high to 30 percent, according to the poll, which has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points. Support for the opposition rose to 48 percent from 44 percent, according to the poll.
Gillard's personal standing rose amid a month of diplomatic commitments, including attending a meeting of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders and hosting talks with U.S. President Barack Obama. Her government yesterday won support from independent lawmakers for a levy on coal and iron-ore profits, ensuring the bill will gain approval in the lower house of parliament.
The government has pledged to lower the corporate tax rate by using the A$11.1 billion ($11 billion) the levy will raise over three years from companies including BHP Billiton Ltd. and Rio Tinto Group.

NIH Approves Lines of Human Embryonic Stem Cells
By Father Thomas Berg
Last Wednesday, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced the approval of the first 13 human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines for use in NIH-funded research under the new NIH Guidelines for Human Stem Cell Research published on July 7, 2009. The NIH is, of course, the great financial umbilical cord supplying U.S. tax-payer dollars to fund the vast majority of biomedical research in our country. I explored the details of those guidelines in a previous column. Let me extrapolate the...

Death Panels?
By Father Thomas Berg
Earl Blumenauer is a Democratic member of the House of Representatives from Oregon. He took credit recently in the New York Times for authoring the now infamous end-of-life provisions which, in varying forms, are still alive in both House and Senate healthcare reform bills. Most notorious among these was the 'death panels' provision as coined by Governor Sarah Palin. While over the top, the term 'death panel' has stuck, and the burden has been on legislators to convince America that their...

Thanksgiving 2009 and the End of the Decade
By Father Thomas Berg
Next Thanksgiving will find us, please God, at the beginning of the second decade of the 21st century. Our present celebration this Thursday finds us at the close of the peculiarly enumerated decade of the '00s. Not surprisingly, the New York Times' David Segal recently invited readers to get a head start on one of America's favorite intellectual fetishes: "name that decade." "You know the rules," wrote Segal: "coin a pithy, reductive phrase that somehow encapsulates the multitude of...

Of Bishops, Healthcare and the Stupak Amendment
By Father Thomas Berg
I must have missed it.Apparently, late on the evening of Saturday November 7, as the U.S. House of Representatives was about to vote on the healthcare reform bill (H.R.3962), several Catholic bishops and a cardinal or two strong armed their way into the House chamber and forced a majority of the members (including 64 Democrats) to vote for an amendment (the Stupak-Pitts amendment) which would prevent the healthcare bill from opening new avenues for the federal funding of abortions. Yes,...

Fruits of the Same Tree
By Father Thomas Berg
Scientists can now make human eggs and sperm, no men or women needed. Let me repeat that: as reported recently in the journal Nature, researchers at Stanford University have successfully produced human sperm and eggs from embryonic stem cells. This should come as no surprise since sperm and eggs are specific kinds cells, and human embryonic stem cells have the capacity to give rise to all cell types in the human body. In fact, researchers have been working hard to make this happen for the...

The Faith that Makes Us Human
By Father Thomas Berg
This is part seven of my reflections on Pope Benedict XVI, Joseph Ratzinger's book, Christianity and the Crisis of Cultures. If you missed the earlier columns, here are the links: part one; part two; part three; part four; part five; part six. In Part III of Christianity and the Crisis of Cultures, Pope Benedict turns to the question of Christian faith: "the fundamental act of Christian existence." Why, we might ask, does he choose to draw his reflections to a close by turning to the...

The Stakes in Afghanistan
By Father Thomas Berg
The war in Afghanistan and our continued commitment to that battle raises any number of moral issues. These were recently addressed by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in a letter sent to the United States government's National Security Advisor General James L. Jones USMC (Ret.). Of course, America's military engagement of the Taliban has roots in the 9/11 attacks. Most observers find the U.S. at a critical juncture, and are anxiously waiting for President Obama to make a decision...

An Abortion Mandate in the Making
By Father Thomas Berg
Last week saw significant progress toward a final version of a healthcare reform bill which could be voted on by Congress as early as the end of October. The path toward that final bill is so tortuous, however, that even experts disagree on just how it will be accomplished. As explained to me by my colleague Dorinda Bordlee, Executive Director and Senior Counsel for Bioethics Defense Fund, and editorialized in the San Francisco Examiner, the bill was taken behind closed doors in the...

Some thoughts about public discourse
By Father Thomas Berg
Readers will forgive me for waxing philosophical for just one column. But let's take a step back from healthcare reform, unemployment, the economy, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, al Qaeda, Gitmo, water-boarding, gay marriage and stem cell research to think for a minute about just how the exchange of ideas is faring in the public square these days. It is Christopher Tollefson, professor of philosophy at the University of South Carolina, who has me thinking about this. His recently published and...

The 'Common Ground' Non-Argument
By Father Thomas Berg
Many within and without the Catholic Church have suggested of late that a "common ground" approach is the way to resolve our sharp cultural divide on the issue of federal funding for abortions. Within current debates over healthcare reform, "common ground" has taken on a more specific meaning, namely, to maintain the status quo on federal funding. Supposedly this would be a reasonable way ahead, especially to open a path for healthcare reform we could all live with. Among advocates of...

I am pondering buying a truing stand to do my own truing. I have two bikes with 700c wheels, two with 26" wheels and one with 20" wheels. I am not going to be doing this enough to warrant the cost of a professional stand.
What is the opinion as to the best consumer-grade truing stand for around $ 100? Thanks for any ideas.

We booked to stay here as a treat for our anniversary (as a break from hostels), we were given the wrong room (no air con) when we arrived but the price was much lower than we expected so decided not to say anything and take the fan room, which was very nice! The location is good for beach & restaurants etc, the 'swing' bar (no swings) is ok but there's no atmosphere at all (low season?) and 1 of the female members of staff was very rude to us on our last day which spoilt it a bit. Pools nice!

An OK place to stay. Across the street from the beach and a block off the main street in Lamai. Tired looking rooms in need of updating. In the restaurant across the street it took over an hour for us to get one order of chicken fajitas while a table of 10+ showed up after us and received most of their food before us. Service not top notch but food quality is good.

Good hotel with decent size rooms. Friendly staff in a reasonably clean establishment. However, there isn't much to the hotel as they just promote the opposite 'swing bar' (which doesn't even have swings) Overall, a good hotel about a 2 minute walk from lamai strip.

........ Well, do yah feel poorer?
........If not? ....... just wait! (note 22, above)
REGARDING: Small or at least smaller cities may be a partial answer. Family, at least a loving and supportive one will certainly help.
RESPONSE: I have often considered this idea of forced movement and manipulation of the populace. Forcing them to new areas to build and expand new areas of commerce in the name of growth and profits. Take a step even further, when you break it all down, all the populace really is is a herd of animals that need the same 3 things all other animals need in order to survive: Food, Water, Shelter. By manipulating these 3 factors, TPTB are effectively able to control the populace, while milking the system for all the gluttonous things they can imagine for them, their families, and their cronies. I'm thinking elitists such as CEOs and executives of big business along with local/regional/national government officials, but most importantly, big banks and the Fed. Anyway, we've already seen the manipulation of one of the three, "Shelter" in this country has been one hell of a roller coaster ride and a lot of people now find themselves in a lot of trouble directly relating to the housing market. The next factor we are seeing manipulated is "Food". You hear stories about this everywhere lately. CNBC runs stories about corn prices, wheat shortages, the price of milk and eggs, seemingly on a daily basis. So far we've all had enough water, in this country anyway, but many say that "Water", the final factor necessary to sustain LIFE as an animal, albeit many of us will shell out a few bucks for a small bottle of it these days. All these factors are manipulated vis a vis the manipulation of economics (think Fed). This is accomplished by devaluing and eroding the work of the workers via the erosion of what the workers trade their work for....dollars.
In a country with the Emancipation Proclamation, we have become a nation of slaves, regardless of race, religion, gender.
I hear you bike lady. World is 'smaller' and competition for resources and wealth is greater.
Small or at least smaller cities may be a partial answer. Family, at least a loving and supportive one will certainly help.
Good luck.
I know that. What I'm talking about is PEOPLE. Some say when you keep doing wrong, it will come back and bite you in the butt. Try being nice, it JUST might come back and put a smile on your face.
QWAK,eggs,Perhaps you should take som time OF and take in a MOVIE you seem to be geting realy worked up in to a FRINZY! ;)
I hear there is a great ACTION flick coming out soon, you should go see it.
the DUCK
"eggs,Perhaps you should take som time OF and take in a MOVIE you seem to be geting realy worked up in to a FRINZY"
Oh, ok "Beacon of Light"/Duck. But not the Bernanke one you're touting. I like movies with great special effects with a science fiction story line. And some hot chicks that accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative .... ooops .... but I digress ....
Eggs.. when do you just change your name to Cassandra. And when do you acknowledge what a dumb post you placed a couple of days ago about the less than 2.5% per annum inflation over the past 7-8 yrs. Your boy W has messed with the economy but not as badly as you stated.
"Eggs.. when do you just change your name to Cassandra. And when do you acknowledge what a dumb post you placed a couple of days ago"
Heck, Alpha, I acknowledge that I place "dumb posts" almost daily. You're too kind saying that I missed a day!
Come to think of it, I think this is one of them.
REGARDING: ........ Well, do yah feel poorer?
RESPONSE: I do think that the average American feels the pinch. Unfortunately, I have come to the realization that what's more important to Joey6pak is the ability to take on a line of credit for 0% the first 6 months at the local Circuit City in order to buy one of those shiny new flatscreen hd tv's. Of course, this has to come with the super premium cable package to really enjoy the new tv. And every night we'll all sit in front of our tv's, snacking away like hogs, rooting for our favorite sports teams with rosters full of degenerate overpaid thugs with attitudes. We will also be buying our children pricey threads with these gentlemens' names and team colors in order to encourage our kids to strive to be like these jerks. And then we will complain because our ARM re-adjusted and we'll stick our hand out to the gov't to come up with some kind of plan to help us, since there's no way we'll cancel the premium cable package or drive a small car. We like to drive around in huge gas-guzzling SUV's while soccer moms floor the pedal to get little Johnny to his game on time. We are constantly bombarded with labels, name brands, advertisements, commercialization. We have succeeded in commercializing humanity here in this country. We have lost what is important. We sit in front of our hd tv's while society is crumbling around us. We have mortgaged the future work of our grandchildren with our wars and social programs. Things are not right around here, not by a long shot. SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMETH.

Wowzers, Mikie yah took the wind right outta me!!! What you said put things in much more broader perspective. IMO The infrastructure of our society has really been harmed by all the money thrown at us by TPTB.
In an attempt to one up our neighbor and feel part of the narcissistic, self indulgent society we've put family and friends on the back burner while we strut our STUFF out.
Then we escape into an oblivion of sports, soaps, game shows, and movies which places us into escapism mode and we wonder why so many of our society are on anti-depressants, or the kids on Ritalin or worse.
We, as a society seem hell bent on achieving a virtual reality of escapism via the hd boob tube as it wisks us with an uncanny clarity to the event as opposed to just watching it.
Then again with my poor eyesight my old TV, to me, is all I need to escape into a virtual reality world of make believe.
Maybe our nation needs a good hard swift kick in the posterior to wake us up. Maybe a recession or worse could wake us up and help us smell the roses.
Nevertheless, Mikie, thanks for the reality check.
Mikie love the post man.I agree 100%.
I myself aint feelin no pinch.Because I never got sucked into those HD TV's.Way over priced even at 0 financing.Put 20% down and 30 year fixed on my house.Burn mostly firewood not nat gas.Pay mostly in cash.Credit Cards get paid off every month.And get the rewards...for free! Haggle is the name of the game.I need something? I ask the retailer to dump the price 10% to start the negotiating.Anything is negotiable!
I gotta split.Gonna look through the classifieds in the local paper for a new HD TV that someone cant afford.Or maybe a Hummer.I can afford it.Lets start negotiating at 50% off the asking price.The economy aint bad.Its just that people are stupid and cant take responsibility for there own actions.Its there own damn fault that they are broke weak and desperate.
Very well stated.

Does anybody remembers this xmas movie???
A large and loving middle-aged man and his wife become trapped in a snowdrift on their reindeer sled. Near death, they are saved by elves and taken to an invisible factory at the North Pole.

He comes to learn how time is dilated so that Christmas Eve lasts all year round and he can deliver all the presents, using reindeer that are fed with a magical grain to make them fly. Things go well until the elf Patch, unhappy at the failure of his attempts to introduce an automated toy production line, decides to head out into the world. There Patch's naivete is set upon by the ruthless toy manufacturer B.Z. who plans to exploit Patch's unstable anti-gravity candy.
