Bag of Bones
Truly my favorite set of sinister playing cards. The design and artwork has a feel that fits in for the most wicked parlor games.
My all time favorite Playing Cards this year. It's so much nicer to play with this deck, the illustrations of whimsical cats will make you smile, lower you blood pressure, and maybe help you to live longer.Added 7 Years Ago from Inky-dinky

Very nice state park with WES, cable and wifi. We were close to the comfort station and was able to receive the wifi signal at our campsite. Our back in site was fairly level, some were not, and had a gravel pad. Shade trees at some sites. We would definitely stay here again if in the area. - SGF

The only thing to recommend would be the store carrying some essentials like milk, bread, etc. Other than that, this is by far the best park we have experienced in Alabama. The Wood Loop is more wooded and private and big rigs will also appreciate many pull-through sites. The highlight is the beautiful hiking trails all close to the campgrounds. Likewise, a short drive to beautiful overlooks and falls in the Little River Canyon. Helpful staff and beautiful woods. - bobnemens
Aug 2015 - $35.00
The nicest campground we have stayed in this past year. Very spacious sites, all paved, paved roads, full hookup ups. Very big rig friendly. Excellent staff, very friendly. A very peaceful place to rest and lot's of hiking trails. The restaurant at the lodge is pricey and the food was just fair at best. I wouldn't eat there again. - slideone

Agree with other reviews that it is a very nice RV park. Owners are very accommodating. There is cable available, but requires a box which can be provided. We opted not to get the box for an overnite stay. Lovely fishing pond with swings to sit in and relax or fish. We would definitely stay here again if in the area. We camped in a motorhome towing. Verizon phone and hot spot worked great. Good Satellite reception. Nice playground area. - NewRV
Jul 2015 - $13.00
This is an RV park, not a resort. It is an excellent park. The sites are wide and graveled. Picnic tables and fire rings are in most spaces. We had a back-in site. When we pulled in to the park, there was plenty of space to unhook the toad. There was also cable available. We had to get a cable box from the owner for access.
There's a pond with ducks. A trail for walking. And you are just up the road from Little River. Lots to do nearby - hiking, swimming, and you're about 5 miles from town.
Owner is working on expanding the park. We're excited to see what he's done when we next visit. - 3catstravel
May 2015 - $27.00
Electric 50/30/20 is good. Sewer good and at ground level, Water is ok @ 42psi. Wi-Fi Didn't use it but it is not real strong. AT&T Cell Phone good 3bars. AT&T Air 4G Air Card poor. Verizon 4G LTE Air Card very good. Cable but needs a box for the inside to the TV. Site is dirt with a small amount of shale mixed in. Site Size pretty level, good width and length. You can park both truck and trailer on most sites. Some Sites are close while others have a bit more room. Some grass between sites and some trees. Interior roads are dirt with a little shale mix in. CR261 was a dirt and gravel road but the county has come in and put rock and asphalt down but didn't smooth it out. It is wide enough for one lane but if someone is coming toward you both will have to make room, especially if you're in the RV. Restrooms and showers are nice and they look clean. I did not use them. Laundry looks good. 2 washers & 2 dryers. Cost is $1.50 each. Only a few long term tenants, but sites are well kept. DirecTV Satellite is capable in some spots especially if you have the satellite on a ground tripod. Passport America discounts Largest is a pull through at $27. Owner works during the day so pick up a map and form then you pull in and find a site then go to the sign board and pay in the box on the wall. Owner will likely come by and ask you if you want a cable box. This park has a woodsy atmosphere. Quite at night. it rained hard here and the rain ran off the campground quickly. They have an interesting drainage method. Ditches bordered by stones and vegetation and flowers growing along or over the ditched which lead to pipes underground or other ditches to move the water away. If I were in the area and there was room I would stay here again. - TXBobcat

Stayed 2 nights and was very satisfied. Small, quiet & very clean place created for just the reason we used it: an overnight or two-night stay on your way to somewhere else. Lots of things to do in the surrounding are and very conveniently located just off the interstate. - coonie
Mar 2015 - $29.00
At check in we were told to pick our site. Gravel drive and pads, long but very narrow sites, very level. Free WiFi had good signal if you park near office. No off leash dog park. Cable is free but we were never able to get ours to work. Lovely owners. Park entrance is a bit tight. Also the turn into Airport Road from Hwy 35 is a little tricky so make sure vehicles in the turn lane on Airport Rd are further back before you turn in. Hookups are near the middle. Water pressure was good. Laundry and showers were quite a walk from the main campground, more convenient for tent campers. Gravel was thin in some spots so it was very muddy when it rained. Nice for overnight or short term. - Flippitti
Dec 2014 - $24.00
This review is based upon an overnight stop. The park is located convenient to the interstate. Easy in and out with gravel roads and gravel sites. Pull-thru sites were level but some of the turns in the park were a bit tight so take care. A good value for an overnight stay. - homey

Al Franken chides Islamophobes opposing Cordoba House
Sen. Al Franken, fresh off a BB gun attack on his condo, took some time out yesterday from the rubber chicken circuit in Illinois to mock the Islamophobes making political hay over a Muslim community center planned for a few blocks from Ground Zero:
"I don't know how many of you have been to New York, but if a building is two blocks away from anything, you can't see it. It's a community center. They're going to have a gym. They're going to have point guards. Muslim point guards."
Franken told the crowd gathered to support local Democrats. "They (Republicans) do this every two years. They try to find a wedge issue, and they try to work it."
Gov. Tim Pawlenty's certainly working it. He went on Fox News the other day to rip the Cordoba Center as insensitive and unpatriotic because it was so close to hallowed ground already rubbing shoulders with street vendors selling trinkets made in China, bars, fast food eateries, a strip joint -- and churches, of course.
He scorned one of its leaders too -- a guy originally hired by President George W. Bush's State Department to travel the world and insist that Americans really don't hate Muslims. (Imam Rauf was also invited to speak at a memorial service for Daniel Pearl.)
Franken, who lived in New York City for years while working on "Saturday Night Live," called opposition to the center "one of the most disgraceful things that I've heard."
Meanwhile, Rep. Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress, was on Larry King and Democracy Now yesterday reminding Americans ready to ditch the Constitution that their Muslim brethren have the same rights as anyone else.
And when Fox 9's Jeff Passolt suggested to the congressman that Muslims were being insensitive, he shot back: "You would not want me to put your constitutional rights up for popular approval."
"You're right about that," Passolt said.

SEATTLE (AP) — Gov. Chris Gregoire says her week-long European trade mission is well worth it, and meetings in Spain, France and Germany have expanded contacts and potential deals for Washington businesses.
The trip included a stop at the Paris Air Show where she says Washington was recognized for its work in composite materials. She says state aerospace suppliers and labor representatives saw the international scope of competition; it's not just Boeing versus Airbus.
In a conference call with reporters Thursday from Germany, Gregoire said the delegation also has made business contacts on wind power, automotive technology and life sciences.
The trip is Gregoire's sixth foreign trade mission. She is not seeking a third term and said she'll use her final months in office helping restore the state's economy and reducing unemployment.

I have set my iterm2 to use the solarized color theme:
I would also like to have emacs use this theme. Here's what it looks like:
I have my terminal set to xterm-256color. I don't know what I've missed, but it makes me sad.
Help appreciated.
It turns out that the official (or officially endorsed) soliarized git repo has a version that is less good than this one.
I switched to the latter and it fixed the issue.
You want to use the default background color set in iTerm2 itself. The problem is, you also have emacs setting the default background color (which overrides iTerm's default)!
If you remove the command changing the background color, it should return to iTerm2's default.
You most likely have something like the following in your .emacs:
To use the Terminal's default background color, do not set the ":background" attribute at all. Note that setting it to black will NOT always work correctly (though in your case it probably will)!
I use gnome-terminal with transparency, and setting the default ":background: black" made the window completely opaque. I had to remove the ":background" setting in order to get my transparency back.
You can still set the default ":foreground" attribute and it will work; just don't set ":background" (did you get that? maybe I should repeat it again. :) ) so you keep your Terminal default background!
Use only the solarized theme in your iTerm configuration and not in your console emacs.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates released struggling left-handed starter Erik Bedard on Tuesday, two days after he lost his 14th game of the season, tied for the most in the majors this year.
The 33-year-old Bedard went 7-14 with a 5.01 ERA for Pittsburgh after signing a one-year, $4.5 million contract in the offseason. Bedard got off to a strong start and went 4-1 in May before his numbers steadily declined. He went 4-10 over his final 14 starts as his ERA ballooned from 3.12 on May 27 to the worst among Pittsburgh's starters.
Bedard gave up six runs in six hits, walking two and striking out three in a 7-0 loss to Milwaukee on Sunday.
The Pirates have not announced who will replace Bedard's spot on the roster and rotation.

No External Flash firewire problem
My White Lighning 10,000 studio flash triggers fine as the external manual flash when I put a card in the camera and use the camera batteries.
But when I connect it to the computer and AC the flash won't fire when I take the picture from the computer nor the camera.
This is with Hyper Utility. Camera Menu is changed to PC Mode -- Firewire shooting. Will take available light, but studio flash just won't fire. Any suggestions?

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

With her savings she bought a car and started a taxi business. She also started to serve meals at home. She has bought two additional cars with her earnings, which other people drive for the taxi service.
Through Finca Perú, Haydee has learned to invest in her business and it is going well. She has asked for a loan of 2,000 soles (US $675) to buy tires and batteries for her cars.
Haydee studied Cosmetology and her goal is to someday start a beauty salon.

Mfg Part # : KU09021BK
Daystar Coil Spring Isolators
All coil spring suspension designs utilize a rubber isolator that is usually positioned between the top of the coil spring and its mount on the frame. This isolator keeps suspension Noise, Vibration, and Harmonics (NVH) from being transmitted to the rest of the chassis and ultimately the engine compartment. Over time, the rubber deteriorates due to wear and exposure to the elements. Daystar's Coil Spring Isolators are a direct replacement for worn out factory rubber isolators and will outlast a stock replacement. Constructed of high-grade polyurethane and manufactured in the USA, Daystar's Coil Spring Isolators are the best that money can buy!

Rural Community Participation, Social Networks, and Broadband Use: Examples from Localized and National Survey Data
Stern, Michael J., Adams, Alison E., Boase, Jeffrey, Agricultural and Resource Economics Review
Although attention has been given to how broadband access is related to economic development in rural areas, scant consideration has been given to how it may be associated with voluntary participation. This issue is important in that numerous studies have shown how much more vital community participation is in rural areas as compared to suburban and urban places. Drawing on three diverse data sets, we examine the influence of broadband access on community participation. In addition, we explore whether broadband access exerts its influence through, in conjunction with, or independent of social networks. The results suggest that broadband access and social network size have independent effects on volunteering in rural places.
Key Words: rural sociology, social networks, broadband, digital inequality, volunteerism
People are increasingly reliant on the Internet and other information and communication technologies (ICT) in their business, academic, and personal spheres. The Internet is a pervasive medium through which individuals can engage in everything from personal communication to civic participation; it can serve as a vehicle for communication on formal (e.g., professional communication) and informal (e.g., emailing friends and family members) levels, as well as a source for entertainment and social activities (Quan-Haase and Wellman 2004). Moreover, Internet users can seek out information on topics such as finances, education, and politics that would improve one's life chances (La Rose et al. 2007). Because people can use the Internet to engage socially and civically, the technology is recognized as an important tool for many different aspects of social life.
Still, some researchers have warned that increased use of the Internet leads to weakened community ties, a decrease in common interests at the local level, and decreases in levels of voluntary or community participation (e.g., Turkle 1996,). However, other studies over the past decade have shown that this view is largely unfounded. In some cases, Internet use is positively related to active contributions to community vitality, such as various forms of civic engagement and community participation (Mossberger, Tolbert, and McNeal 2008, Wellman et al. 2001). Yet, few studies have attempted to examine the effects of broadband or examined any of the mechanisms and intervening factors that could be impacting these relationships.
The purpose of this paper is to explore and explicate a number of issues relevant to how Internet usage, in particular broadband use, is related to community participation among rural residents. To do this, we draw on theories of social capital, which provide a lens for our discussion. In particular, we focus on participatory capital (volunteering at various levels), network capital (social networks), and digital capital (use of the Internet and access to broadband technologies). We use three data sets to explore the theoretical perspectives empirically and address the potential intersections of these three types of capital.
Overview of Theoretical Background and Issues
Communities are greater than the sum of their parts. Rather than simply an aggregate of individuals, communities are characterized by the relationships, networks, activities, and functions that the individuals create and build together. The "networks, norms, and trust that facilitate coordination and cooperation for mutual benefit" within a community is referred to as social capital (Putnam 1993, p. 35). Social capital is a result of collective effort rather than individual contributions to a community (La Due Lake and Huckfeldt 1998). A critical component of social capital is the relationships that develop between individuals in a community. As a result, social capital is an important aspect in understanding rural communities, as they are unique in their types of social networks, relationships, and resources (e.g., Wilkinson 1991). The development of social capital can have an impact on community characteristics such as economic health, political participation (La Due Lake and Huckfeldt 1998), and capacity for community change and growth In addition, different types of ties and relationships can affect crucial facets of social capital, such as levels of community participation (Ryan et al. …

Indiana men's basketball coach Tom Crean says he has apologized to Michigan assistant Jeff Meyer for their heated exchange after Sunday's game in Ann Arbor, Mich.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Indiana coach Tom Crean says he has apologized to Michigan assistant Jeff Meyer for their heated exchange after Sunday's game.
Crean said during the Big Ten coaches conference call Monday that he apologized to Meyer over the phone on the way to the plane afterward. Crean said he wishes he had "never addressed anything after the heat of battle in a game, but I did and we move on. End of story."
The incident happened on the court after the Hoosiers beat Michigan 72-71 to win the Big Ten regular-season title outright.
Indianapolis station WRTV showed Crean being restrained as he yelled at Meyer: "You know what you did. You helped wreck the program. You helped wreck our program."

Crean was hired by Indiana in 2008 and inherited a program burdened by NCAA sanctions for violations under former coach Kelvin Sampson, an ex-Washington State coach. Meyer served on Sampson's staff.
According to The Indianapolis Star, in 2008 Meyer apologized to Indiana school officials for his role, "however limited," in any NCAA violations. The NCAA cleared Meyer of involvement in "major" violations and did not penalize him for "secondary" violations.
Michigan coach John Beilein said he did not see the confrontation as it happened. He saw video of it Monday morning and said Meyer "showed great poise" and called him "a great coach" who has helped rebuild the Wolverines' program "brick by brick, side by side, with me."
Beilein added, "Michigan is always going to win with class and they're going to lose with class. We're never going to use victory or defeat to vent … any frustrations we're going to have."
Chelan's Harris is All-ACC
Virginia guard Joe Harris, a junior from Chelan, was voted to the All-Atlantic Coast Conference first team.
Harris averaged 18.4 points in ACC regular-season games, ranking second in the conference. The Cavaliers are coached by former Washington State coach Tony Bennett.

Oklahoma City Thunder: Thabo Sefolosha turns in a career year in 2012-13 season
Whenever Thunder general manager Sam Presti executes a rookie contract extension, usually there's quite a commotion. Not so with shooting guard Thabo Sefolosha.
There was nary a peep on Oct. 28, 2009, when Sefolosha agreed to a four-year extension with OKC worth $13.8 million, plus incentives.
Presti had acquired Sefolosha from the Chicago Bulls at the trade deadline eight months earlier in exchange for a first-round draft pick. Sefolosha quickly had become a highly respected perimeter defender with the Bulls as the No. 13 pick in the 2006 NBA Draft.
This essentially meant Presti swapped a proven lottery pick for the No. 26 overall pick in the 2009 draft.
Since the uncelebrated signing of Sefolosha, every rookie contract extension involving the Thunder has made a ruckus.
*All-Star forward Kevin Durant agreed to a 30-percent maximum, five-year extension at the earliest possible moment on July 8, 2008, which he announced via Twitter. That such a significant occasion was so modestly revealed brought aftershocks that rumbled throughout the league.
*On Jan. 19, 2012, All-Star point guard Russell Westbrook agreed to a 25-percent maximum, five-year extension, even though he would have qualified for the 30-percent maximum as a two-time All-NBA pick at the time. Westbrook and Durant being under contract together through at least the 2015-16 season quickly had opposing teams groaning.
*On Aug, 18, 2012, Defensive Player of the Year runner-up Serge Ibaka agreed to a four-year extension worth $49 million, plus incentives. Starting next season, Ibaka's salary will be at a flat rate of $12.25 million per year and will not escalate, putting less stress on future OKC payrolls.
*Last summer, reigning Sixth Man of the Year James Harden refused the Thunder's four-year extension offer reportedly worth $53 million. As a result, Presti traded Harden to Houston on Oct. 27 in a move that remains a topic of debate.
There has been little debate of Sefolosha's worth, however.
This upcoming season will be the final year of Sefolosha's contract and will pay him $3.9 million. Starting July 1, the Thunder has until the end of the contract (June 30, 2014) to re-sign Sefolosha, or he will become an unrestricted free agent.
Sefolosha came off the bench in his first appearance with OKC in 2009, but he has started every game since (other than the 32 games he has missed due to injuries).
Last season qualified as a career year for the 29-year-old Switzerland native, who set career highs in field-goal percentage, points, steals and 3-pointers made.
While remaining one of the league's premier perimeter defenders, Sefolosha has gradually transformed himself into a shooting guard who can actually shoot. He has become an effective spot-up 3-point shooter (.419), particularly from the corners (.463).
Where does Sefolosha hope to improve before next season?
"Different things," Sefolosha said. "I want to keep working on my shooting and I definitely want to work on my ball handling and different things where I see I can maybe have an impact on the game for the Thunder."
Sefolosha began his career as a teenage point guard for the Swiss national team. Does he want to return to his ball-handling days as a 17-year-old?
"Maybe not that far," Sefolosha said with a chuckle. "I just think I understand my role with this team. I embrace it and try to play to the best of my abilities. I feel at the same time that I can do more, so that is what I want to explore as long as coach (Scott Brooks) gives me a chance and my teammates trust me. I'll just try to do more for the team."

Airport Finance:
Observations on Planned Airport Development Costs and Funding Levels and the Administration's Proposed Changes in the Airport Improvement Program
GAO-07-885: Published: Jun 29, 2007. Publicly Released: Jul 30, 2007.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
To address the strain on the aviation system, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed transitioning to the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). To fund this system and to make its costs to users more equitable, the Administration has proposed fundamental changes in the way that FAA is funded. As part of the reauthorization, the Administration proposes major changes in the way that grants through the Airport Improvement Program (AIP) are funded and allocated to the 3,400 airports in the national airport system. In response, GAO was asked for an update on current funding levels for airport development and the sufficiency of those levels to meet planned development costs. This report comprises capital development estimates made by FAA and Airports Council International (ACI), a leading industry association; analyzes how much airports have received for capital development and if sustained, whether it can meet future planned development; and summarizes the effects of proposed changes in funding for airport development. Airport funding and planned development data are drawn from the best available sources and have been assessed for their reliability. The Department of Transportation agreed with the findings of this report. This report does not contain recommendations.
Planned airport development costs total at least $14 billion annually over the next 5 years as expressed in 2006 dollars. This estimate is a combination of FAA's estimate of $8.2 billion in AIP grant-eligible projects and $5.8 billion from ACI's estimate of projects not eligible for AIP. FAA's estimate is based on airport master plans that FAA planners have reviewed and entered into a database of all national system airports. ACI also estimates airports' planned development, based on a survey of the 100 largest airports and includes all projects regardless of grant eligibility. From 2001 through 2005, airports received an average of about $13 billion a year for planned capital development. This amount covers all types of projects, including those not eligible for federal grants. The primary source of this funding was bonds, which averaged almost $6.5 billion per year, followed by federal grants and passenger facility charges (PFC), which accounted for $3.6 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. If airports continue to attract this level of funding for planned capital development, this amount would annually fall at least $1 billion short of the $14 billion in total planned development costs (the sum of FAA's estimated $8.2 billion in eligible costs and the industry's $5.8 billion in ineligible costs). Larger airports foresee a decline of at least $600 million annually, while smaller airports foresee a decline of at least $400 million annually. FAA's reauthorization proposal would reduce the size of AIP by $750 million but increase the amount that airports can collect from PFCs. However, the benefit from increased PFCs would accrue mostly to larger airports and would not offset a reduced AIP grants program for smaller airports. The proposal would also change the way that AIP and other FAA programs are funded. The new fuel taxes that FAA has proposed may not provide the revenues for AIP that FAA anticipates.

One of the more common problems that we as parents encounter, but that nobody likes to talk about, is what to do when your child steals. There are a number of different reasons a child steals and a number of different ways to handle the problem.
Young children do not steal. children below the age of four or five do not have a concept of ownership. They do not understand that it is wrong to take things that belong to others.
By the time a child enters elementary school, he should know that stealing is wrong. Often children at this age take things because they lack self-control.
A preteen or teen may steal for the thrill of it or because that is what friends are doing. He may be trying to gain a feeling of control over his life or to fill an emotional void.
Whatever the reason a child is stealing, the parents need to approach the problem with wisdom. If the parents just react according to their natural inclination, their response will almost certainly be wrong and destructive.
Child Can't Control Himself: Younger children have difficulty with self-control. A child may take something although he knows that stealing is wrong simply because he can't help himself. You have to give your child the ability to get what he wants in an honest way. Also, you must try to minimize the temptation.
Child's Basic Needs are Not Being Met: Children are completely dependent on their parents for all of their needs. A child who feels that his needs are not being met will eventually take the matter into his own hands. The easiest way for a child to do this is to take what he needs.
What a person needs is subjective. Even though a parent may not feel that a child should have something, it might be a real need for the child. For example, if the child's school friends have pocket money, then your child could have a need for pocket money. He will feel a lack if he doesn't have it, even if you provide him with everything that he wants. This type of child may be tempted to steal money just so he has money like everybody else.
Child Needs More Attention: Probably the most common reason that children steal is that they feel an emotional lack in their lives. A child who does not have his emotional needs met, feels empty inside. He may take things in an attempt to fill the void. Often children who steal are lonely or having trouble in school or with friends. They lack the tools or the opportunity to express their feelings.
Many children do not get the attention they need. Such a child may feel unloved or that the parents are not interested in him. This may or may not be true. As I explain in How to Improve Your Child's Behavior, how your child perceives your attention is more important than the amount of attention that you give. These children may translate their emotional needs into material desires. Stealing is their way for these children to express their discontent and to seek gratification.
Child Needs to Have Control Over His Life: Children are acutely aware of their vulnerability. They lack control over their lives. Some children have difficulty with this. If the child has trouble feeling dependent, he may steal to gain a sense of control or to rebel.
Peer Pressure: Older children are pulled after what their friends do. If the child is with a group of children that feel stealing is exciting, the child may steal to be part of the group. Sometimes, a child may steal to show bravery to friends. If your child has fallen into a group of bad friends there are some very concrete things you can do to address the problem. See the article What to Do When Your Teen Chooses Bad Friends.
Stay Calm: Don't overreact. When a child steals it does not mean that he is a thief or is headed for a life of crime. It is really no different than any of mistake that your child makes.
Do not Take it Personally: Children steal to get attention. If your child is stealing from you and you take it as a personal attack you are reinforcing the reason the child stole.
Do Not Accuse or Confront Your Child: This point must be stressed. You must catch your child in the act so that the situation speaks for itself.

Kris Van Assche
Kris Van Assche was born in Belgium in 1976. After graduating from the Antwerp Royal Academy of Fine Arts, he moved to Paris in 1998. Having worked for Yves Saint Laurent, then Dior Homme, he started his own label, KRISVANASSCHE in January 2005. He has also been the Artistic Director for Dior Homme since April 2007.
Over the seasons, Kris Van Assche has imprinted his highly personal vision on the masculine world, redefining and removing the established codes, imposing himself as a major French label. The KRISVANASSCHE collections reflect a transversal inspiration where the contemporary wardrobe mixes classical lines with the ruggedness of workwear as well as the technique of sportswear. The elegance at KRISVANASSCHE is softened and expresses itself through essential pieces of clothing that adapt to the multiple lives of those who wear them.
Regular collaborations, in particular with Eastpak and Lee, have helped expand KRISVANASSCHE's creativity and reputation with the mainstream. Kris Van Assche also carries out artistic work that has been shown in various galleries in Geneva, Paris and Florence. In 2009, he presented his "Picaflor" project during the Hyeres Fashion Festival, which he presided over that year.

Dear CDC Grantee:
As you are aware, the Government Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 ends on September 30, 2013 and an Appropriation Act for FY 2014 has not yet been passed. The Administration strongly believes that a lapse in appropriations should not occur, and that there is enough time for Congress to act to prevent a lapse. However, prudent management requires that we prepare for an orderly execution of contingency plans in the unfortunate event of a lapse.
Your particular grant program is funded by appropriations that are not currently affected by the government shutdown, therefore you should continue normal operations until informed otherwise by this office. A minimal number of federal staff will be available to provide routine administrative support services. In addition, HHS will maintain the Payment Management System in an operational status to continue processing grant drawdown requests, so that payments can be made for programs that are not affected. The robust internal controls that currently exist would continue to ensure the integrity of grant drawdown requests and payments.
If you are considering submitting an application for additional HHS federal assistance funding, please be advised, that the Grants.gov system will be operational and will be accepting applications from prospective grantees. HHS will take action on those applications for fully funded and excepted programs. For those programs which are non-excepted, the Grants.gov system will accept and store applications until such time as the responsible Department has the authority and funding to return to normal business operations.
Please check CDC's website (http://www.cdc.gov/fmo/topic/Budget%20Information/index.html) for updates. Should the government shutdown, you may contact the following individuals if you need assistance on your grant:
Thank you for your assistance with this period of a potential government shut-down and your ongoing support of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In Search of the Perfect Family Coffee Table
If you've ever shopped for a perfect coffee table for a family with kids, you know how difficult this can be. Our coffee table incarnations have evolved from none to soft pouf to kids' table, and now we've settled on a glass table because it's so easy to wipe down. And yet, even though my kids are getting older, it's still a hazard. So what is the perfect solution? I've rounded up a few potential candidates, but would love to hear your thoughts.

Yes and you'll see mountain bikes out there as well.
Demented internet tail wagging imbicile.
wouldn't the flat bar bikes have an advantage??
From my short time racing cross, I've found that the drop bar is far superior to flat bars. Lots more positions to suit the terrain.
Demented internet tail wagging imbicile.
It really depends on the course.
On a technical course a flat-bar bike could be a definite advantate. It also depends on the rider as well.
After today's race (lots of slippery off-camber and rooted sections), I am very seriously considering building one.
coming from mountain biking, at least back when i was 16, i tried CX once with drop bars and thought it was ridiculous. It was hard to hang on tight enough while on the brakes.
then again, they do have clamp on drops for the flat bars.
My blog about rides, bikes and builds: ridesgoneby.blogspot.com
I think you could go either way. I spend most of my time in the drops for better control and I would get that same thing with flat bars. Only disadvantage would be more wind resistance, but my cross races are pretty slow paced - at least for me!!
On some tracks it makes a huge difference
Bianchi now offers a flat bar version of their San Jose. The spec is wrong! It wouldn't have cost that much more to spec with an Albatross bar. If they're going offer a flat bar, a straight bar isn't the way to go.

Actor Arshad Warsi wants to direct films like popular Bollywood director Rajkumar Hirani, who is an expert in mixing social messages with entertainment in his movies.
Arshad and Hirani have worked together in "MunnaMunnabhai M.B.B.S." and "Lage Raho Munna Bhai".
"I want to direct films that get my attention. I want to direct films like Rajkumar Hirani like 'Munna Bhai M.B.B.S'. His films, which have a message, have left an immense impact," Arshad told IANS.
The actor, who has acted in comedy films like "Golmaal" series, "Hulchul" and "Maine Pyar Kyon Kiya", says his films should also have entertaining elements.
"It should be entertaining too. A variety of films are being made. I want to tell stories that need to be told," said the 45-year-old.
Before becoming an actor, Arshad was a choreographer and he has displayed his dancing prowess on the big screen, but says they were easy ones.
"Choreography is my passion and I like to dance. I did films that had dance, but not exactly the kind of dance that I want to do. It was all easy dance steps, which were easy to pick up. I would like to do full-fledged dancing," he said.

Thread: Reloading for Dummies?
Reloading for Dummies?
I want to purchase the equipment for reloading all my .223 brass I've been collecting but I am stupid as to where to start this project/hobby. Can someoen give me an itemized list of what exactly I will need to reload, maybe on about a $300-400 budget?The Right to keep and bear arms.
This is a quailty kit that has all of the essentials except a set of calipers for measuring and the dies. It is the kit that I would recommend to anyone just getting started and it comes with a reloading manual that explains the process very well. If or when you want the ability to reload in more volume, there are other options but they are more than your stated budget allows and are for more advanced reloaders.--This kit can be bought at most place for under $300. Someone will likely recommend a Lee kit. Take my advice and get this one instead.FWIW.---Mike Ezell
I have thought of reloading myself and actually went to a friends house that reloads and reloaded 100 shells.He has a RCBS kit.You can get these at Cabelas,Sportsmans Warehouse and numerous other sporting goods stores.Most of the time I think you will have to buy the dies for your caliber separately.I have seen Lees Kits for around $125.An RCBS kit will run you more than that.It depends on how fancy you want to get with it.
When I reloaded at my friends I bought a pound of powder ($23 I think),100 Sierra bullets ($23) and 100 large rifle primers ($3-$4).I already had brass.I also had to buy the die for a .243 I think it was around $30.I think overall I had about $85 in the 100 reloads after including the cost of the die,powder,primers,and bullets.Buying those loads off the rack would have cost me about $89.I have close to half of the powder left and next time I will not have to buy the die.If you shoot alot I would say it would be worth the cost of buying the equipment to reload your own shells.Besides I enjoyed it.Still thinking of buying my own reloading kit.
I would go online and/or look in a catalog and see what all is included in the kits available.I would think you could actually get by cheaper than $350 to $400 for everything you need to reload and that includes your first supply of bullets,powder,and primers since you already have the brass.It depends on how fancy a kit you want to get.That is the best advice I can give as I am a newbie and there are far many others on here more knowledgeable than me when it comes to reloading.
I wouldn't say that the RCBS is any fancier than the Lee...just better.---Mike Ezell
Armorvet, if you have military brass, you will need to buy a de-crimper die as well. all military brass has a crimped ring around the primer. Once you do it you never have to do it again. RCBS sells this die and it has the components for large rifle primers (.308/30-06) and small rifle primers as well (.223). Commercial brass does not have the crimp so you don't have to worry about it. It is not a big deal to de-crimp uit just takes a little time the first time around on reloading. By all means look at the RCBS line and in the long run you will be saving money.......lots if you like to shoot a lot! Good luck!
Take Mikes advice and go with RCBS. I took his advice and haven't had one complaint or problem yet. The book that comes with the RCBS kit is a great starter book that will show you step by step on how to do everything from measure your powder, to set your dies for resizing to bullet seating."Screw the animals, they had just as long to evolve and invent rifles but they didn't....we win"
My two pennies:
1. Lee Classic Cast single stage press - awesome press.
2. Lee Deluxe die set for 223 - good dies, good as any and probably better than most.
3. Lee Cutter, Lock Stud, and case trimmer insert for 223 - case trimming solved.
4. RCBS 505, 510, or 1010 powder scale - try to find a used one on fleabay.
5. Redding powder trickler - real time saver, worth every penny of its $20.
6. Lee chamfer/deburr tool for the outside burrs on your case necks.
7. Lyman flash hole reamer. Probably voodoo and unneccessary but ya never know.
8. Any decent primer pocket uniformer/reamer (RCBS makes one I think, mine is generic from Midway USA and works fine).
9. Lyman VLD case neck reamer.
10. Lee Auto Prime hand primer for priming cases, with appropriate 223 case holder. Dead simple and cheap and works better than press-mounted systems.
11. Set of cheap calipers from whoever has em on sale.
12. Cheap powder funnel from whoever has one on sale.
13. Cheap case resizing lube (the little tube of Lee stuff is good; Imperial wax is the bomb).Down on the street where the faces shine.
Floatin' around, I'm a real low mind.
- The Stooges
I have all lees presses a turrett, a progressive 1000 , and a single stage all my dies are a combination of lee, rcbs, hornady, and lyman. Had no problems with presses other than a bushing to turn the turrett. Started out loading with the lee hand loader first set off a few primers driving them in. also so have a lyman 1200 dps powder drop.
Over the years I have owned and used all of the brands listed, and few that are not, and I have come to the conclusion that RCBS and Dillon are the best.
Personally I like my Lee single stage,it is good to learn how to load on and if you want to upgrade to a progressive you can.but I would avoid buying a progressive of any kind right off the bat,look for a single stage press. Lee presses are cheaper than others but I haven't had any problems with my press and their reloading manual is top notch.Other than buying your press you must get reloading manuals,you can never have to many reloading books.

A construction worker who fell Sunday from the Lewis and Clark Bridge in Cowlitz County is presumed drowned, officials said.
Charles Williams "Bill" Wiley Jr., 40, of Mississippi was identified Monday afternoon as the worker.
The man was reported missing to 911 by a fellow construction worker at about 11:25 a.m., after falling from the Longview bridge into the Columbia River. A effort that included searchers on boats from the Cowlitz and Columbia sheriff's offices and the U.S. Coast Guard did not turn up the man, officials said.
The search was suspended at 2:15 p.m., according to a news release from the Cowlitz County Sheriff's Office.
Authorities said they did not yet know what caused the man to fall or why his safety equipment did not prevent the fall.

Having food sensitivities to sunflower, soy, gluten, etc I searched for the right shampoo. This felt so good on my scalp and was gentle and cleansing . I have color treated hair that was dry but not anymore. Used in combination with the Vanilla Conditioner my hair came out looking and feeling soft, shiny and full of body after I used my blow drying styling wand. That's without any styling products added. Awesome results and I enjoyed the good scent as I showered.

This shampoo has done wonders for my hair. The scent is amazing and it is the only shampoo that I have ever used that cleans well and never, ever fades my color in the least.

I have been searching for a natural shampoo and this is it! It left my hair soft and shiny and the smell is very nice.

I have to say that I was very impressed with this shampoo. I found out about it through Gorgeously Green, and am so glad that I did! It doesn't have all of the horrible chemicals in it that we find in many of the shampoos from the store. Plus I have tried others, and they always seem to make my hair go flat. Not this! It gives me volume and has an AMAZINGLY wonderful smell! I do wish that they sold it in larger bottles, but until then and after, I will continue to be a frequent shopper. :)

I like this shampoo; good smell.
It's not as conditioning as I would like, but it's still very nice and I would recommend it.
