When you get to it please post what you think of episode 11 - it's the one where the three older undines reminisce about their training. As per usual, not much happens, but it's somehow very moving. I'm interested to hear what you think.

|So I'm watching Hayate the Wombat Butler (hee hee) season 2 right now (much love to CR) and as much as I enjoyed the first series (rated it excellent), I'm digging this one more. It still has a lot of great humour, but the show is concentrating much more on the romantic side of things too, which I'm digging, and going more into character stuff. What a fantastic franchise.

Heh. Just wait until Aria: The Origination. It'll blow this one out of the water.
On topic: Now that my replacement disk of The Third, volume 3, has been delivered, I'm back on track in viewing it.
Not sure if this is good or not, but I had to go back to the first episode on the volume because I've already forgotten what the hell was going on.
This doesn't bode well for the remainder of the series.

I decided to check out a supposed OVA of Kaichou wa Maid-sama, it was pretty much a dvd extra with the charaters having fun. The humoures bit had the characters each redubbing a scene, my favourite being with Usui doing part of both himself and Misaki. A bit was not too interesting sum up, but others were funny enough.
At the moment though it is not anime related I am watching Aliens, just the movie to watch before going to bed.
And I am hoping to check out the Baka to test OVA once it gets subbed whcih I am really looking forward to.

Summer Wars.
Not quite a masterpiece, but a very fun movie. Now, here's where it sucks: I'm not stating a thing about this. You must watch this movie and come up with your own opinion. Perhaps you'll be one of the 900+ who voted it Excellent or higher? We'll see.
As for me, I'd definitely rate it Excellent, just a few ticks away from Masterpiece (a few issues with the story makes it impossible to rate it higher).
This post is dedicated to Zac for his generosity at handing out DVDs while paying for shipping to subscribers. Without this, I would not have purchased this DVD.
*tips hat
Perhaps you use this as an excuse to chuck over $20? If you get a DVD, it pays for itself, silly.

Beautiful episode. I literally had the biggest grin on my face when the insert song started to play as Akari waved off her friends. Such subtle everyday nuances turned into something very, very special. This anime is INCREDIBLY well done, and I am literally punching myself for not having discovered this sooner.
Those "Venice. I'm Sorry!" segments were great as well. Junichi Sato seems like a silly guy.

Silly guy for sure, but I think he's also very astute in his story telling, especially in their emotional flow. I think the response that we both had at that moment was very carefully set up in the preceding scenes, especially through Athena's amazing a capella song. The general mood of nostalgia and the close friendships no doubt did their part as well.
Last night I finished Canaan. Although I rate it as very good I found myself disappointed by it. This could have been a magnificent series. The basics are there: great artwork and animation, visceral action sequences, the makings of an epic plot, and characters with considerable potential.
The first problem is the stupid humour. What is it with anime these days? You get a serious story with interesting characters and at some point every episode at least one of them acts like a complete clown. Why? To amuse 12 year olds? I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. (I have to admit, though, that I really appreciated the normal bodily proportions of Canaan and Maria.) The complete joke of the series is Liang, the psychotic "sister" of Alphard. Her presence spoiled just about every scene she was in. Villains need a better motivation than pychosis. It's lazy and it has been done to death elsewhere.
The other major gripe is the plot. The series climaxes never manage to come across as powerfully as they should have because there is never enough time spent on the build up. I blame it on the current penchant for thirteen episode series. This rushing through the episodes also meant that the plot had gaps and the characters couldn't be properly developed, leading to the simplistic characterisations such as Liang.
Finally, unlike the best examples, (Noir, Gunslinger Girl), this series explores only superficially the implications and possibilities of the "girls with guns" genre. Gunslinger Girl put a whole new wrinkle on the concept and did it in only thirteen episodes. Canaan's emphasis on action over character driven drama probably has much to do with its shortcomings here. The dramatic possibilities with Canaan, Alphard and Maria could have been taken much further.
If I sound peeved it's because I really like the show (and love the genre) but it could have been so much more.
By the way, it isn't shy about revealing its links to other members of the genre - going so far as using lines directly from its forebears.
I've come across some interesting stuff while exploring (more or less) minor works by well known directors.
Mahiro Maeda: Gala from the Genius Party Beyond anthology. A giant object from the sky lands in a world of alien "earth" creatures. Their initial fears are steadily transformed into celebration as it sprouts into our human world. It's twenty minutes of growing bliss, you might say.
Katsuhiro Otomo: Gundam: Mission To The Rise and The Order to Stop Construction. I've never much liked Otomo. He's a great artist and animator but a very mediocre story teller. Above all, I've always been repulsed by his jaundiced outlook on things. The first of these is less than three minutes long and I'm sure it would have looked awesome for its time if seen in a cinema but it's way to short to leave much of an impression at home. The second film is quite entertaining - a loyal company man travels into the heart of the Amazon jungle to stop some very determined robots from building a factory that is no longer needed. The depiction of the enormous factory surrounded by the encroaching jungle is Otomo animation at its most inspired. But, as usual, the tone is sarcastic. The facial design of the main character is typical of the sort of negativity Otomo generates.
Gainax: Daicon III and IV. As with Otomo, Gainax stuff just about always leaves me cold. These films, especially the second, are a revelation. Made for sci-fi conventions in the early 1980s they actually pre-date the creation of the Gainax name and apparently were responsible for creating much of the buzz around that group of animators. I can see why. Daicon IV is six minutes of pure joy and exhilaration.
Koichi Mashimo: The Weathering Continent. If you know Noir you'll instantly recognise Mashimo's touches - the straightforward but striking watercolour backgrounds, the slow pans, the lingering eyeball close-ups, the repeated images, the emphasis on mood over action, an arcane mystery and the prominent role for the music. I'm a total sucker - I love it. And, as a bonus, there's a musclebound hero who always (yes, always!) thinks before he fights. As is so often the case with anime, the villains are ridiculous but that's not a major problem here. If you find Mashimo slow going don't bother with this.
Finished Rec today. It's a sweet and sentimental romance. Boy and girl meet; sexual tension develops; they eventually admit it; rival appears; misunderstandings develop; apologies are given and accepted; love is acknowledged. Just like a squillion other romances. Nice for the soul but there aren't any twists or moments of originality to elevate this above a decent rating. Which is disappointing because Ryutaro Nakamura has directed some very individual titles: Serial Experiments Lain, Colourful and Kino's Journey.

Actually I picked up the Perfect Score collection from Shawne of TRSI off Amazon. It was only slightly more expensive than the Classic Line since he was trying to get rid of some of his Perfect Score stock.
I've decided to go with my initial thought and just put it back on the shelf for now. I'll finish off the last 5 episodes in a couple months once I've forgotten how much I liked the previous arc and how much I don't like what I know will happen in the last arc.
But your suggestion of the manga might put a dent in that. That's definitely become a feasible option. Thanks for the heads up on that.

While waiting for Basilisk DVD 3 to come, I started wtaching Solty Rei.
Very average, very predictable, but I wanted to get this done. I hope it will manage to take off after the not so good beginning and that the series has got something up its sleeve... I wish the characters were not so stereotypical and generic.

Despite the fact I loved Solty Rei, your hope will never come.
Sorry, but those are the breaks with this one. In fact, once Rose comes on board, you can write the script yourself.

You crushed my only hope. I already felt like a clairvoyant watching the first episodes. i dont know, but I feel like Solty Rei could run together with Eureka 7 for an award for the most irritating kid characters in anime.
But Im wondering, since you said you liked it, what is it worth watching for?

|After 3 days of staying up till about 4 A.M. on each day, I managed to finish Xam'd: Lost Memories and I'm halfway done with Nodame Cantabile season 1. Xam'd was great, though I expected more action, but overall it was highly enjoyable. I did miss a lot of information by staying up late to watch it, so the story did not make as much sense as it should had. I read comments about it on Hulu, and I agree with most of them. Nodame Cantabile is great so far, though I was expecting a more serious story rather than comedic. It's very enjoyable and I'm liking it. The comedy actually had me laugh a lot. Now, I have to stop procrastinating, and start on my schoolwork .

I happened to watch this anthology today. Gala probably manages to impress the most through the incremental spectacle it displays, leading towards a crescendo of vibrancy.
It is an unfortunate trait of the Genius Party anthologies that, in spite of production values of the finest calibre in the industry, the viewer must sometimes weave a satisfying story together from mere threads. Instead of a series of events against which to react, we are frequently presented with little more than a succession of images. (Dimension Bomb exemplifies this.) Resultantly, one's engagement with the screenplay is at occasional risk of waning, which may result in an under-appreciation of the sublime effort placed towards the films' visual composure.

The Countess (2010)
by Rebecca Johns
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Fascinating read, which proved very informative even if in a fictional characterization of an insane woman trying to justify her incessant appetite for murder. It gave me a better insight on how Erzsebet Bathory might have regarded her demons.
This biography of the Countess Bathory was a fantastic novel, a wonderful first person description of a descent into madness. At first, I wondered why the book was skipping over the deaths - then I realized they were being skipped over because in her eyes they were barely worth mentioning - and then as she descended into madness, it all started to come into focus - she was laying blame, her mind poisoned, her status as narrator became more and more unreliable, and, in the end, the book told the tale exactly as it should have been told. It is well-written and quite effective.
*****This was a GoodReads Giveaway Win!*********
Wow! This was a very interesting book. I feel like the author gave an edited view about the life of Elizabeth Bathory. But what a view it was. The style of writing had me in the 1600's. This is a very good book to read, well worth the trouble to find a copy to read.
The author take the reader though the life of Elizabeth Bathory, a Countess in the late 1500's to early 1600's. According to history this was the Blood Countess.
Thanks to the author Rebecca John's for sending me an autographed copy of this book.
I gave the novel four stars because while it could have spun into darker fantasy fueled by the legends about Erzsebet Bathory, Johns took a more serious approach and allowed the Countess a more complex, realistic role as a noblewoman constricted by her class, her gender, and later in life, her loss of status after the death of her husband. In this respect, "The Countess" follows a similar story line as the charming 2008 film, "Bathory".
History suggests that Erzsebet probably did engage in harsh discipline of her servants, not unusual in the seventeenth century, and that she likely tortured and caused the deaths of perhaps 30 girls, suggesting that she had a tempermental, sadistic, or sociopathic streak, but it is unlikely that she murdered over 600 or ever bathed in their blood. She was known to extend charity and kindness to others less fortunate, yet at the same time was probably reviled by many as the decadent "1%" of her era. What little is known about her suggests that she was also a loving mother and a shrewd, busy manager of her husband's holdings as well.
The novel's first person point of view allows the reader an intimacy with Erzsebet's journal-style narrative, though of course, one suspects at times that she is an unreliable narrator who sanitizes and rationalizes her actions. Johns rose to the challenge of padding facts with speculative fiction and overall, found the proper balance and tension in this portrayal of Bathory's fascinating life. After all, even serial killers have a bit of humanity mixed with their monstrous flaws. I'm just sorry that we'll never know the facts that fueled centuries of legend about the Blood Countess.

The tilt function can be tricky to use, especially if it appears to be not quite accurate in its markings. Though I admit to possible error in my evaluation of this aspect, I never did find an explanation other than incorrect markings.
Standing centered in front of this pavement line, I rotated the tilt mechanism to 270°, which should have given me tilt from near to far in the center of the lens. But it did not.
The first image below shows the result with the tilt mechanism at 270°. It should have yielded alignment right down the line.
I worked with the tilt function for at least 10 minutes in this context, and finally concluded that in spite of what ought to be correct (270°), that instead the 240° position was much closer to the correct setting.
I don't have an explanation for this apparent error.

RE: Charles Wesley Wilcox
Hi Brenda, I should have been clearer with my request. Charles Wesley Wilcox' #40076026 mother is Rebecca Grace Ferguson Herman #137771172
I'd like to connect their memorials. And his father Mortimer Wilcox #137832663too please?
His step-father Charles Wesley Herman's #137495116 memorials also. I've been told he loved his step-father and siblings, they were close, and would like them connected IF possible too.
You have a memorial for his son "Victer Willard Wilcox" but it's actually spelled "Victor" - hard to find in a search. His headstone has an "O".
I get all of these similar names confused, hope I didn't now. Charles Wesley Herman also had a son named Victor Willis HERMAN (my GGF).
Thanks! Rita

Check out the latest news and insight from the ever-evolving world of institutional investing and hedge funds from around the globe.
Read More Industry News >
Steve Cohen's SAC Capital Advisors is now Point72 Asset Management.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the new name, which will take effect next month, is a nod to the firm's Connecticut address at 72 Cummings Point Road. The article added that the various funds at the firm will be renamed Point72, EverPoint Asset Management and Cubist Systematic Strategies.
Cohen's personal investments will be managed by an entity called Cohen Private Ventures.
SAC, which pleaded guilty in November to insider trading, agreed to pay a record $1.8 billion fine and to be barred from managing external capital for five years. As a result, the firm is transitioning into a family office.
SAC, which had about $14 billion in total assets under management as of last year, is expected to manage about $9 billion once the firm completes its transition to a family office.

Hours after fire out, firefighters called back to Rutland Plywood, building destroyedStaff Report | August 21,2014Hours after a fire at Rutland Plywood seemed to be out another one started and destroyed the building, according to fire officials.

Kandle revealed today her most recent music video for the song «Gimme a pill». Released two years ago on the album In Flames, the song describes the struggle of living with chronic pains: "Living with chronic pain is the biggest challenge in my life. As much as I fight to stay positive and to pursue traditional and alternative treatments for my pain, some days I still can't find the strength to get out of bed or have to cancel a show and go to the hospital. My condition at times consumes me and the mixture of medications that I've come to rely on erodes me instead. But I refuse to drown in self pity and instead I choose to create art out of my situation and show a representation of what it's like for all of us being held back by pain. My best pal Maya Fuhr brought to life a beautiful little video for us of 'A day in the life' trying to escape from the struggle and fighting to be free!"

Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Comics god Osamu Tezuka's darkest work, MW is a chilling picaresque of evil. Steering clear of the supernatural as well as the cuddly designs and slapstick humor that enliven many of Tezuka's better-known works, MW explores a stark modern reality where neither divine nor secular justice seems to prevail. This willfully "anti-Tezuka" achievement from the master's own pen nevertheless pulsates with his unique genius.
Michio Yuki has it all: looks, intelligence, a pedigree as the scion of a famous Kabuki family, a promising career at a major bank, legions of female admirers. But underneath the sheen of perfection lurks a secret with the power to shake the world to its foundations.
During a boyhood excursion to one of the southern archipelagos near Okinawa, Yuki barely survived exposure to a poison gas stored at a foreign military facility. The leakage annihilated all of the island's inhabitants but was promptly covered up by the authorities, leaving Yuki as an unacknowledged witness--one whose sense of right and wrong, however, the potent nerve agent managed to obliterate.
Now, fifteen years later, Yuki is a social climber of Balzacian proportions, infiltrating the worlds of finance and politics by day while brutally murdering children and women by night--perversely using his Kabuki-honed skills as a female impersonator to pass himself off as the women he's killed. His drive, however, will not be satiated with a promotion here and a rape there. Michio Yuki has a far more ominous objective: obtaining MW, the ultimate weapon that spared his life but robbed him of all conscience.
There are only two men with any hope of stopping him: one, a brilliant public prosecutor who struggles to build a case against the psychopath; the other, a tormented Catholic priest, Iwao Garai, who shares Yuki'ls past--and frequently his bed.
Serialized beginning in 1976 in Big Comic magazine, where Tezuka's trailblazing medical thriller Ode to Kirihito had appeared a few years earlier, MW probes the complexities of homoeroticism as well as the reality of extensive U.S. military presence in Japan. The result is as bracing today as it was thirty years ago.
Darker than you think than you want to think ] MW took on the stuff of today's headlines some thirty years ago. The Agony Column
MW is the newest of those masterpieces to be translated into English, and like everything else with Tezuka s] name on it, you are cheating yourself out of one of the best graphic novels out right now if you don t read it. Advanced Media Network
Tezuka spins an entertaining, slightly preposterous yarn, serving up more plot twists, car chases, and gender-bending costume changes than Dressed to Kill and The Manchurian Candidate combined. popcultureshock
You ll stare at the page, eyes popping and muttering, I cannot believe I just read that. But you did, and it worked, and you turn the page. David Welsh, Comic World News.
About the Author
Regarded by many as the "God of Manga" Osamu Tezuka was born in 1928 in Toyonoka, in Osaka, Japan. A prolific author and artist, Tezuka is generally regarded as the single figure responsible for developing Japan's massive manga and anime industries. His cinematic art style and novelistic narratives have made his work as universally accessible and relevant now as when first published in Japan. A list of his well-known and universally loved work includes the classic JUNGLE EMPEROR LEO (also known as Kimba the White Lion), BLACK JACK, ADOLF, MIGHTY ATOM (known as ASTRO BOY in the U.S.) and METROPOLIS (recently made into a hit anime film). Tezuka continued creating comics until his death in 1989.

Skip to comments.Boycott SlimFast's filthy mouthed spokesperson, Whoopi
Posted on 07/10/2004 3:53:31 PM PDT by InHisService
July 9, 2004 -- Whoopi Goldberg delivered an X-rated rant full of sexual innuendoes against President Bush last night at a Radio City gala that raised $7.5 million for the newly minted Democratic ticket of John Kerry and John Edwards. Waving a bottle of wine, she fired off a stream of vulgar sexual wordplays on Bush's name in a riff about female genitalia, and boasted that she'd refused to let Team Kerry clear her material.
"I Xeroxed my behind and I folded it up in an envelope and I sent it back with a big kiss mark on because we're Democrats - we're not afraid to laugh," she said.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
Done - told 'em for this side of the pond also!
I no longer respect Whoopi Goldberg.
Sent the following message:
After reading about the "Hatefest" Democrat Party in
Manhattan, N.Y., and the words that were spoken by the participants,
including Whoopie Goldberg, I and my wife wish you to know
we will not be purchasing Slim Fast any longer.
We, instead will be opting for Wal-Mart Equate brand,
or some other product that is more to our liking, and way of thinking.
Inverness, Florida
All the diet meal companies (Slimfast, Lean Cuisine, Weightwatchers, etc) donate heavily to the Democrat party. I don't know why, either.
Done. I was polite, except when I called her their 'pig of a spokesperson'. Otherwise, I was very direct and polite.
Just writing to say that if Woopi remains spokesperson for your product, my entire family will no longer use any of your products.
There are plenty of competitors out there whose products taste and work as well as Slimfast products.
I always thought of Slimfast as a wholesome company, and I know Whoopi became spokesperson before her recent vulgar rant, but it is now up to you to make certain she doesn't infect your products image with the same vulgarity.
Here's what I wrote:
That foul-mouthed pig of a spokesperson, Whoopi Goldberg, ought to be canned by Slim-Fast. Her obscene, filthy remarks at our PRESIDENT at John Kerry's fundraiser have guaranteed that I will never buy any of your products again. Too bad because I like your products, but I'll find good replacements. You're not the last company in the world, and I want nothing to do with a company who has a spokesperson who trashes our nation's leader. Shame on Whoopi and shame on your company if you don't fire her.
they should enjoy my little note also.
I no longer respect Whoopi Goldberg.
Ted Dansen is crushed!
Crushed, I tell you!
I never did respect old Whopee.
LOL, that was quite understated. However, we don't want to put ourselves on HER level.
I happen to use slim fast bars..but will not be buying anymore, until Whoopi apologizes to our President.
Here is my letter to Slimfast:
After hearing about Whoopie Golberg and her vulgar, disrespectful and insulting words about the United States President, at a partisan Democratic fundraiser, I question her ability to represent Slim-fast.
If she continues to represent your product I will stop buying it immediatly. Iwill findish the two cans of powder I have and find alternative products.
Realize that when Goldberg insults our President, particlarly in such a vulgar fashion, she alienates half the country....can Slimfast really afford to lose half of their potential market?
One more thing..I did email them...thanks for the update on this.
I know, but I couldn't resist. My fingers took on a life of their own when I typed that remark. It's all my fingers' fault. I had nothing to do with it, lol.
Speaking of Whoopi cushions...
I was thinking of trying SlimFast, not because of a weight problem, but more for a lack of appetite. Oh well, they have store brands that are probably the same thing at a more reasonable price.
Sorry, can't go there. I will NOT allow cookies (especially from a company that keeps such company) and it will not load for me without them.
Thanks. I emailed them and hope this can be a freep action.
Done! It's too bad because I have drank two shakes every mornin' for so many years I can't remember when I started.
I think Carnation Instant Breakfast is really good and tasty...loaded with nutrients too. They have a variety of flavor packets (powder). There's always Ensure too, but it's pricey and taste like medicine.
Carnation Instant Breakfast is the most inexpensive way to go. Put a glass of milk, the mix, maybe a banana (or other fruit) in the blender, and you're good to go. My mother's doctor gave me this advice when my mother lost her appetite while terminal with cancer.
Here's mine:
I'm sure that you have heard about the tasteless remarks that Ms. Goldberg made at a political fundraiser recently. What Ms. Goldberg does during her comedy routine is one thing, when she does it at a political function, and aims filthy remarks towards the President, then that is something else completely.
You might want to consider hiring a spokesperson with more class.
I told them to get her face off their website.
Thanks for the heads up.
Kerry thanked all the performers for "an extraordinary evening," hailed the "great producers" - Harvey Weinstein of Miramax and Jann Wenner - and said "every performer tonight ... conveyed to you the heart and soul of our country [sic!!!]."
Hollyweird does NOT represent American values, or the heart and soul of our country, in any way whatsoever!!
This election is shaping up to be a contest between anyone with decent or Christian values (whatever his or her usual political leanings) and the moral FILTH and POISON represented by Hollyweird and the media and advertising community, the feminazis, and the gays. I vote NO to all of them!!!!
As for SlimFast, it doesn't work anyway, in terms of long-term weight loss and health. Don't beleive their hype, whether spread by Whoopi the Obscene or by anyone else. Boycott SlimFast for ALL the right reasons!!!!
By the way, I see from your screen name that you are a Christian, as I am. May God bless you!!!!
Thanks for the link. Here's what I emailed them:
I am writing to let you know that I will do everything in my power to dissuade people I know from using your products until such time as Whoopi Goldberg is removed as spokesperson. Her vulgar and tasteless diatribe directed against the President of the United States was not only inappropriate, but also reflects negatively against your company. I want you to know that should you choose to support Ms. Goldberg and her foul-mouthed remarks, it will adversely affect your image in the minds of as many people as is within my power to do. Please do the right thing and replace her with someone that more Americans can respect.
just sent my regards.
Oh Ensure is just awful. There were some leftover cans after my dad passed away. I drank half of one and tossed the rest. I remember Carnation Instant Breakfast. It was pretty tasty. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you. I also just posted this link. They are a huge corporation and if they here from enough of us, Whoopi will be more than "a big loser" as the SlimFast motto goes.
I sent my e-mail to Slimfast earlier today. I am now trying to find an earlier thread that also listed an address for Unilever, the parent company of SlimFast. I can't find that thread anymore. I ran several searches. Can somebody post the link? Thanks
Yes, I am a Christian and am disturbed at how John Kerry, a practicing (?) Catholic, could sit through Whoopi's diatribe laughing. This is Christianlike? God bless you too, my friend.
You go girl, a pig would be a better spokesperson than Whoopi!!
I just emailed Unilever, thanks for the link. I wasn't sure how to direct my email (they had about 7 options to choose from: product, media, web-site feedback, etc.), so I emailed to all of them. Choke on that for a while Unilever
I use your products several times a year when I want to take off some quick weight. However, I cannot support your company as long as you have this woman as your spokesperson. While you pay her, she represents you. She did not do you well the other night. If you feel strongly about her, go ahead and keep her on. Your business will go down. I guarantee it. I'll find another product to use as will everybody I speak to. This just wasn't Whoopi giving her opinion as a US citizen, this was a crude, drunken tirade. It's your choice, it's who you want to be as a Company. I wish you good luck with your decision.
Well said!
Kerry's about as "practicing" as my cat. In fact, probably less so, because to my knowledge, the cat is not pro-abortion.
I love your determination. I'm sitting here trying to learn basic HTML, and get hungrier by the minute with all this food talk, LOL.
I believe Unilever also owns Ben&Jerry's.
No one should use slimfast at all.
It's unhealthy and counter-productive.
Unilever also owns Lipton...sponsors of those adorable Dixie Chicks...maybe Unilever needs a major rethinking the spokesperson selection process.
Avoid Carnation Instant Breakfast. One of the main ingredients is Maltodextrin (basically hydrolyzed cornstarch). This is a high glycemic starch and will wang your blood sugar around and promote fat gain. Verra bad.
Check out MRP's (Meal Replacement Powders) like Prolab's Lean Mass Matrix. It is more expensive but much, much healthier.
I recommend the Cinnamon Oatmeal. They also make a low carb MRP (or you could just use less powder), but I don't think it's quite as yummy.
make that "of " the spokesperson selection process..sorry

This kinda stuff happens way to often. My condolences to the family. I've had a few close calls myself, as I'm sure many of you have. We should all feel fortunate that was not us.
I believe this is yet another example of why drivers should have to take a driving test when they renew there license every 5 years.
I can't believe some of the comments I read about the article. Those clowns need to have their driving privlages taken away. Just so they can see what it is like to be a cyclist or pedestrian in this area.

^^ exactly what I was thinking
We cannot solve problems with the same level of consciousness that created them. A.E.
1990 Diamond Back MTB
2007 Leader 736R
I really wish newspaper websites would stop allowing comments when someone local is killed in a tragic accident. We had something similar in Vancouver when a teenager died in a automobile accident, and the comments were just vile. I'm sorry, but someone's son just died, and in this case, someone's father/brother/uncle just died.
Y'know...I don't know when the ridiculous practice of letting anonymous posts about news articles started, but I agree this is just not a good practice. I'm sure it's a money thing, as in CNN discovered their webhits go up when they started doing comment sections, but there is absolutely no value added. At the very least they should make the comments ID verified with a name at the end of each one. All the comment boxes seem to do is enable polarized opinions to get aired while hurting, all too frequently, the victims of tragic circumstances.
I live in search of finest examples of the 3 B's: Bikes, Beans (coffee), and Beer
Very sad. My sympathies to the family and friends of the victim.
Do you think making them register would temper the comments? Not going to happen. No one is forced to read the comments, if they disturb you that much don't read them. I prefer an open debate, regardless of the troll comments that always pop up. Much better than the old system of a closed garden where the editors decided who got to comment and then usually edited the comment.
They (the newspapers) should have the same requirements to comment on articles as they do on their own editorial page. You can not have a letter printed unless you provide the paper with your name and addresss and then your name is printed along with your letter. This might curtail bs like we read on the times website.
Matthew 6
for the victim's family and friends.
at those who use a tragedy as a vehicle for their own ugliness to spill out. I didn't read the comments, and I don't plan to. I've seen them before. Let's all be extra careful out there, especially with the weather this weekend.
The updated article in the Seattle Times now says the cyclist had lights and was wearing "protective gear, including a reflecting vest". How could the driver have not seen him? The article doesn't mention alcohol being a factor, but I wonder if the driver was impaired in some other way.
Bikes are just not as visible as cars no matter how many lights and reflectors you have on. You are just smaller. This is why the law requires motorcyclists to have their headlight on all the time. If you want to be safe on a bike, this might be something to consider. Because your are small, you can easily be hidden behind a windshield pillar. This is one of the reasons that motorcycle patrolmen ride side-by-side, so people will see them. I don't know exactly what happened in this case, but after looking at the location where the accident happened I can understand how the driver could have missed the bicyclist, especially if the bicyclist was coming down the hill at 30 to 40 mph.
A contributing factor in my opinion is the skewed intersection. Renton Avenue has a center turn lane and it would seem easy to make a left onto South 130th Street at such a shallow angle. Instead of stopping, looking, and executing the left turn, a driver would just tend to veer left without stopping (and without looking as carefully). Current road standards call for new intersections to be built at approximately ninety degrees for this reason.
Check it out on google maps. They have the road cameras now ("Street View") and you can look at the pictures as if you were standing in the middle of the street.

Back in 2013 we started a project in Rutonde, outside of Kigali, which set out to feed malnourished children. The idea was that for six months twenty children would receive a daily meal to build them up.
Yesterday was always going to be chaotic, energy-sapping and fractious. This was the annual jamboree known as getting the Nyamirambo children back to school. To minimise the effort, we gathered all the children together in a small cafe in Nyamirambo which offered protection from the sun and a place to do the business.
It is Saturday and we have been invited to the home of Marie Therese and Jean Pierre Millindi. The couple own a property on the outskirts of Kigali where Marie Therese runs a Saturday Church for needy children in the local area. Along with Bible study, the children are fed and provided with other support.
Mission Rwanda is moving into livestock. At Rwamagana we have purchased a cow to provide for a family where the mother has cancer. In Kigali, during our last visit we acquired another four hoofs with the support of Loanhead Parish Church to provide for a family there which is struggling to eat.
The search has started. We have four boys who have finished primary education and are now looking for a secondary school to go to. This is our opportunity to join the annual stampede to get the children into some of the secondary system's fast-disappearing places.
The work done by Mission Rwanda is only funded by your generous gifts. All donations are used for projects in Rwanda with travel and other expenses contibuted by the trustees.

If you don't like large butt ends, how about something like this?
If you don't like large butt ends, how about something like this?
Does that one above ^^ go inside your shaft?
On the subject of coins (kinda), for those of you worried about your shaft cutting into your butt end, if you put a quarter flat in the butt end before you put it on the shaft it prevents the shaft from cutting through the butt end.
+9/-0 (if everyone left feedback)
Stx also makes a classic plastic end cap that is a little bit old school but is the lowest profile end cap I have seen. It is more durable than the rubber caps as well.
Ogalex50, no outside.
I didn't know STX still made those caps, I have a few sitting in my tool box at home from 20 years past.
I have several plastic, insertable end caps of varying colours. I produced them for Kaleb Toth. If there is any interest, I'd be happy to send some out.

I recently was called for having a beer cap buttend.

Missouri Acts to Block Aetna-Humana Deal
May 25, 2016
It's hard to believe that five years have since passed, with the ACA surviving charges of death panels, chair-tossing town-hall sessions, more than 40 repeal votes and a major Supreme Court challenge.
I was relieved to discover that my son and taxman aren't the only ones with questions about the ACA.
The Affordable Care Act is creating new jobs as the health care industry continues to transform in response to the legislation.
Employers who have not accurately counted the number and type of employees within their organization by Jan. 1, 2015, could end up with unnecessary expenditures as a result of the Affordable Care Act's employer mandate.

SAN FRANCISCO Google unveiled its attempt to catch up to Apple and Amazon in the growing market for tablet computers. It also provided a titillating glimpse at its vision of a digital future through the mind-boggling lens of Internet-connected glasses.
The debut of a long-anticipated tablet computer bearing Google's brand and equipped with its latest operating software kicked off an annual conference for about 6,000 computer programmers.
Although the tablet drew plenty of applause, the biggest crowd-pleasing moment came near the end of a nearly two-hour performance Wednesday when Google conjured a scene worthy of a "Mission Impossible" movie.
After Google co-founder Sergey Brin trotted on stage during the middle of a presentation, he cut away to a live video feed showing a group of skydivers the company hired to jump out of a blimp hovering about 7,000 feet above downtown San Francisco.
The skydivers were wearing a pair of Internet-connected glasses. That allowed the audience inside to see what the skydivers were seeing as they parachuted on to the roof of the building where the conference was being held.
The glasses are still a work in progress, although Google gave U.S. programmers attending the conference a chance to order a $1,500 prototype that they can start experimenting with early next year.
The Google-branded tablet, called the Nexus 7, will start shipping next month in a direct challenge to Amazon.com Inc.'s Kindle Fire. The tablet also could appeal to consumers looking for a less expensive, less sophisticated alternative to Apple Inc.'s iPad.
The Nexus 7 is designed specifically for Google Play, an online store that sells movies, music, books, apps and other content. That mirrors Amazon's strategy with the Kindle Fire, although Amazon's strength in online retailing has seeded its store with a more extensive selection than Google Play. Amazon declined comment.
The size and price of the Nexus 7 also matches the Kindle Fire. Both have 7-inch screens and sell for $199. The Nexus 7 is slightly lighter at about 0.75 pound, compared with the Kindle Fire's 0.9 pound.
By contrast, the iPad's screen measures nearly 10 inches diagonally and weighs 1.44 pounds. Apple sells its latest models for $499 and up, though an older version is available for $399.
Customers can start ordering the Nexus 7 through Google on Wednesday, initially in the U.S., Canada and Australia. The device won't ship until mid-July.
Google's announcement that it's putting its brand on a tablet comes a week after Microsoft Corp. did the same thing. Both moves risk alienating Google's and Microsoft's hardware partners. Those companies, in turn, could be less inclined to work closely with Google and Microsoft.
The Nexus 7's price looks like a relative bargain, given that it boasts more features than the Kindle, including a front-facing camera with 1.2 megapixels. The Kindle is believed to be a roughly break-even product for Amazon at $199. Samsung Electronics Co. sells a tablet similar to Google's for $250.
Andrew Rassweiler, an analyst with IHS iSuppli, said he suspects Google will be selling the Nexus 7 at a loss.
Google has previously put its own brand on a flagship line of "Nexus" smartphones. But that market is more mature than the tablet market, and there was less risk of Google alienating partners, particularly because it didn't price the phones lower than the norm.
Much like the Nexus phones, the Nexus 7 tablet will be a showcase for a new version of Google's Android operating system - this one called Jelly Bean.
Although the tablet carries the Google brand, the machine will be made by AsusTek Computer Inc. Google recently expanded into the device-making business with its $12.5 billion purchase of Motorola Mobility, but the company has stressed that it intends to continue to rely on Asus and other manufacturers that have embraced Android.

Paolo Di Canio quits Swindon
PAOLO Di CANIO last night quit as Swindon boss.
There have been a number of broken promises made by the club over the time that I have been manager of Swindon.
He threatened to go last month after the sale of Matt Ritchie to League One rivals Bournemouth behind his back.
In a statement Di Canio said: "There have been a number of broken promises made by the club over the time that I have been manager of Swindon.
"I entered into a temporary arrangement with the proposed new owners to continue in my role but all this was agreed subject to Football League approval for the purchase of the Club being granted by 5pm on Monday, February 18.
"I have had no further contact from the proposed new owners and I have been told unfortunately Football League approval has not been granted yet.
"Therefore my temporary arrangement has ended and my resignation stands."

Making Up Favorite Faces for Halloween
Halloween is like Christmas for makeup artists. At Mac Cosmetics, a beauty company known for collaborations with pop stars Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga, this time of year winds up being the busiest, said a spokeswoman. In the spirit of the season, it seemed like a fun bit of Gonzo journalism to challenge a Mac artist to create a series of looks for us.
We started by brainstorming ideas, some of which were quickly tossed for lack of innovation. A toddler in a tiara, for example, would involve just a little bit of tanner and some blush for our baby face. Moammar Gadhafi as a corpse would be a little too gross. A blue Na'vi from "Avatar" felt very 2010, whereas Optimus Prime from "Transformers" would involve creating several three-dimensional face pieces.
"My favorite is 'Iron Man,' but he's hard to do," said Chantel Miller, a senior artist who has worked at Mac for more than 15 years. "It's difficult to create animatronic ideas out of symmetrical human faces."
This Halloween, Ms. Miller transformed models into Marilyn Monroe, a Pan Am stewardess and a zombie girl. On her schedule for the following day was a pair of owls. Normally women going to fancy parties come to her asking to look beautiful: "I've done gorgeous female pirates with crystal face patches and Vargas girls," she said.
But Ms. Miller also enjoys the grotesque. "I like a zombie if you can use gelatin and coffee to make pus, if you can really go all out and glue oatmeal on a face," she said. "I've always wanted to do a melted wax figure from 'The House of Wax.'"
The four looks we planned were not icky, but they still provided Ms. Miller with a challenge: "These I'm really psyched about."
First up was David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust. "I've never done him before," she said. "He's a great beauty icon."
Mr. Bowie did all his stage make-up himself, so Ms. Miller was not concerned about getting it perfect. "There was a roughness to it," she said, as she applied foundation with a brush. "And it was a time when makeup was makeup, the tools were nowhere near as sophisticated as we have today. Part of the authenticity is the messiness."
When it came to the red lightning bolt, Ms. Miller scotch-taped our face to achieve perfect straight lines. For the glittery effect, she covered the face with a Mac product called "silver dusk." "It's a must for every-day alien," she said. The final touch was a bright red wig.
Next up: the Incredible Hulk. We chose him because Bruce Banner felt less clichéd than Spider-Man and more visual than Captain America. Plus, we're excited about next year's "Avengers" movie.
"Who doesn't want to be a superhero?" Ms. Miller asked as she began to turn our face various shades of contoured green. "We're going to go the vintage route and paint the emotion in."
After a short photo session of pretending to be angry, it was time to go red, this time for the chief Angry Bird. (We expected to see a lot of Angry Birds out for Halloween this year, but we noticed more Black Swans.) Ms. Miller said she was most nervous about this one, partly because it was coming directly from animation and involved a tag-board beak, painted yellow. "It's good for people to know that makeup artists get scared too," Ms. Miller said.
"Buying a beak is not the same feeling," she added as she painted pronounced eyebrows and began to glue the beak on to our nose and chin. "I have birds as pets, so I was staring at them last night in Brooklyn."
The last visage was a Jackson Pollock splatter painting, a favorite look of Ms. Miller's. This involved having the whole face painted black, then lying down on the ground over plastic bags. Standing above us, Ms. Miller flicked red, white, yellow and blue paint from brushes. The end result was both terrifying and amazing.
Then came the most difficult part: getting the four layers of make-up off. With the residue still there, Ms. Miller said we looked "very 'Shaun of the Dead.'" As we scrubbed and scrubbed with black washcloths, she even taught us about empathy.
"Think about it," she said. "This is what a model goes through during Fashion Week."

- Conference date: 18-20 April 2007
- Location: Zaragoza (Spain)
Coupling Finite Element (FEM) simulations to mathematical optimisation techniques provides a high potential to improve industrial metal forming processes. In order to optimise these processes, all kind of optimisation problems need to be mathematically modelled and subsequently solved using an appropriate optimisation algorithm. Although the modelling part greatly determines the final outcome of optimisation, the main focus in most publications until now was on the solving part of mathematical optimisation, i.e. algorithm development. Modelling is generally performed in an arbitrary way.
In this paper, we propose an optimisation strategy for metal forming processes using FEM. It consists of three stages: a structured methodology for modelling optimisation problems, screening for design variable reduction, and a generally applicable optimisation algorithm. The strategy is applied to solve manufacturing problems for an industrial deep drawing process.

Integrating economic and human resources, AFODENIC offers affordable and adaptable financial services aimed at strengthening the family unit of their clients, who include students, producers, and micro- and small entrepreneurs from rural and urban areas. AFODENIC is a socially responsible institution engaged in society and making a positive impact on its professional partners and communities.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - In questioning so heated the jury had to be removed from the courtroom, defense lawyers in Scott Peterson's murder trial Thursday attacked the admissibility of the prosecution's key piece of physical evidence - a single strand of dark hair.
Detectives have testified they collected a single strand of hair from a pair of pliers found on Peterson's boat, which prosecutors allege he used to ferry Laci Peterson's body onto San Francisco Bay.
But when prosecutors opened an evidence envelope several months later, two hairs were present. That led defense lawyer Mark Geragos to suggest police botched the collection process - possibly even contaminating the evidence.
Prosecution witness Rodney Oswalt, a criminalist with the California Department of Justice, testified Thursday that the hairs were likely two separate strands - not, as the prosecution had suggested during a preliminary hearing, a single hair that had broken in two.
Cross-examination of Oswalt became so intense that the judge removed the jury from the courtroom. Geragos then asked the judge to allow him to tell jurors the prosecution's theory "changes as it blows in the wind."
"If he's going to testify that there were two hairs then that raises the specter once again there was a break in the chain of custody," Geragos argued. "I think the jury should be privy to the fact that it was the DA's contention at the preliminary hearing that this hair broke in half."
The judge would not allow it, but said Geragos could simply question Oswalt about the hairs.

Gail McKernan and Brian Morwood-Clark, I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank Ciao Tours for arranging such an amazing trip to Italy for us! The way I look at it, normally we'd have spent huge amounts of time researching all of the below items had we not gone with Ciao Tours, and still have had some uncertain conclusions. Ciao Tours clearly knows what the best elements of an Italian vacation are, from every aspect. Putting our trust in Ciao Tours far exceeded our expectations and gave us memories that we will never forget. Our recommendation to others would be – you only have so much time in life.

Maddox Family - I have to say that our trip was FANTASTIC! It was the trip of a lifetime for our family. We had been planning on going to Italy for many years. Ciao Tours made the trip "stress free" which was most important to me. I would have been the one to do all the planning and I didn't have the time nor the knowledge. You have great connections and all of your "people" from Didi to our personal drivers were so helpful and thoughtful. Everyone was wonderful and we were truly "taken care of". It was worth every penny we spent. We all agreed we would not have changed a thing. We all loved the fact that the guides could get us into the museums and cathedrals ahead of the long lines. Being an accountant, I am very detail oriented and so is Ciao Tours. It meant a lot to us to have everything planned out down to the smallest detail. read more

Hi there,
I make a website for a "Snack Stop" (thats how its called).
They have a weekly changing menu. For this I made a 'page' called "Wochenkarte" and there in I show the 'blog' entrys.
But now it show me in the title "Snack Stop Wochenkarte" instead of how I called the 'page' > "Wochenkarte".
When I go about the pagination on site "2" it shows me in the title: "Snack Stop Wochenkarte page 2" instead of "Wochenkarte".
How can I change this? I only want to have the title I named the page.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
