Haim has been ruling Spotify so hard all year it's hard to believe they haven't actually released an album yet. All that changes September 30, but you can listen to the album for free right now—it's streaming at NPR. Go listen to it here, and then maybe vote for the sister-trio in our Next Indie Pop Starlet tournament?
Also, if you haven't watched Haim's video for "The Wire" yet, it's hilariously cruel. Watch it below:

The Oklahoma City Thunder have lived under the shadow of the Miami Heat for two years. Although the Thunder had a better record and a bigger hot streak than the Heat before their meeting on Jan. 29, Miami still has the edge in the big picture as the two-time champions. However, if the Thunder keep having the kind of runs they had in their 112-95 win at Miami, that might change this summer after all.
Oklahoma City hardly looked like a champion in the opening minutes, as Miami jumped ahead by as many as 18 points in the first quarter. Usually, the Heat tend to start lethargically and then turn the switch on late, but the situation was reversed this time. In this case, the Heat turned the switch off far too soon, while the Thunder made them pay from behind the arc.
The Thunder didn't need Kevin Durant to have his now customary 30+ point game, although he did get 33 points anyway. Yet the biggest factor in Oklahoma City's win was the team's 16 three-pointers, with four each coming from Durant and Jeremy Lamb, along with five from Derek Fisher.
In contrast, Miami was only three-for-19 in its three-point shots, which cancelled out a 51.4 percent shooting night overall. LeBron James technically topped Durant with 34 points, but few of them made a real difference once the Thunder took control in the second half.
This was a direct contrast to the 2012 NBA Finals, when the Heat swept three straight games from the Thunder in Miami to win their first title. With the Thunder now topping the Western Conference -- even without an injured Russell Westbrook -- and the Heat being the defending champions, a finals rematch will be considered very likely.
As such, Oklahoma City has to hope it didn't use up all its good fortune and hot streaks in Miami last night. Of course, if the Heat could give up a 35-point swing to the Thunder, they have a longer way to go to get back to the finals, much less secure a three-peat.

From "Pittman's Biographies"
"Rebecca Anna Phillips, of Macon, Ga. originally united with the Missionary or New School Baptist Church, with whom she remained about eight years and then joined the Primitive or Old School Baptist Church. This was a great trial of her life and about the year 1875 she wrote her 'Experience and Reasons For Leaving the Missionary and Uniting With the Primitive Baptist.' The first edition of 3000 copies were in a few months entirely exhausted. After much solicitation, she was induced to revise and enlarge this work., and it was, in 1901, published under the title of 'Led By A Way I Knew Not.' Sister Phillips was for many years, corresponding Editress of 'Zion's Landmark,' published by Elder P. D. Gold, at Wilson, N.C. She was known as a deep, instructive and spiritual writer. Truly she was a teacher sent of the Lord. "
The Primitive or Old School Baptists cling to the doctrines and practices held by Baptist Churches throughout America at the close of the Revolutionary War. This site is dedicated to providing access to our rich heritage, with both historic and contemporary writings.

Dear Editor,
Last year 106,000 people died as a result of FDA-approved correctly prescribed drugs. Injuries and deaths from psychiatric drugs alone mount into the tens of thousands, yet TV anchorman don't trumpet this carnage as a tragedy. It's just a ho-hum statistic.
Maybe it's because of "damage control" by the drug companies afraid of law suits over their deadly potions.
Everyday Americans are injured or killed by psychiatric prescription drugs. The New York Daily News reported that the Newtown shooter was prescribed an antipsychotic drug called 'Fanapt,' a drug linked to causing impulse-control disorder and major depression. The fact was later scrubbed from the Daily News web site.
Psychiatric drugs have been linked to every mass killing of the last few years. Morals and public safety take a back seat to drug company profits.
Are pistol-packing teachers the best this exceptional country can come up with as an answer to the violence?
Mass media is in bed with big pharmaceutical companies. Look at the commercials.
Maybe we need to turn off the television and start thinking for ourselves.
Carl S. Bosco, Coarsegold

According to an April 21 post from Bleacher Report, Sting is being looked at for a double-retirement match against The Undertaker at Wrestlemania 31. Sting, who spent most of his pro wrestling career under the TNA banner, is perhaps the most popular wrestler to have never competed under the WWE banner.
Sting, 55, is in the twilight of his career, but most wrestling fans are still interested in seeing him fight in the WWE at least once. The WWE is fully aware that Sting has value as a wrestler, so they intent to use him for one single bout before the legend hangs up the gloves for good. Sting's WWE debut will likely happen at Wrestlemania 31, and he's expected to ride off into the sunset following the event.
The WWE hasn't made any official announcement on who Sting will take on at Wrestlemania 31, or if he's even actually going to be on the card. However, it would make sense for him to take on The Undertaker. WWE Universe has been interested in a Sting vs Undertaker bout for many years, so Wrestlemania 31 could provide the perfect event for a send-off of two legends.
The WWE has also been giving young bucks such as Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan spots in the limelight this year, so setting up either one of them against Sting would be huge resume-boosters for them. So far, Sting hasn't officially signed his name on the dotted line to compete for the WWE. However, he recently made an appearance on the WWE Network, during an Ultimate Warrior tribute show.
Sting's appearance on the WWE Network would seem to indicate that he at least has a working relationship with the WWE. Since Sting's WWE debut is so anticipated, chances are the WWE will wait until a massive event goes down before revealing him to the crowd. That event will most likely be Wrestlemania 31.
Other dark horse candidates for Sting's WWE debut include Bray Wyatt, or even The Rock. Time will tell how the situation plays out, but it seems clear Sting is inching closer to his WWE debut. The WWE still has several months to figure out how to handle the situation.

Nokia still isn't doing well when it comes to cash. Their new line of Lumia Windows 8 Phones are selling well, but the company is still burning through cash. The company has decided to sell its headquarters in Finland to Exillion for around 170 million euros. Nokia will then lease the property back from the company.
Timo Ihamuotila, Nokia's CFO:
We had a comprehensive sales process with both Finnish and foreign investors and we are very pleased with this outcome. As we have said before, owning real estate is not part of Nokia's core business and when good opportunities arise we are willing to exit these types of non-core assets. We are naturally continuing to operate in our head office building on a long-term basis.
Nokia is interested in focusing on core parts of its business, which, apparently, doesn't include owning land. The move is one of cost cutting, and in this case, they will be getting an inflow of cash, but will have to pay to lease the property back from the company. There is good news on the horizon, though, as it appears that Windows Phone is picking up steam as a platform.

There's no better way for the New Orleans Saints to enter their bye week next week with a win over the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium on Sunday to move to a perfect 6-0.

So there are many questions entering Sunday's game. Let's chat about it! Leave your questions in the comments section below and I'll answer as many as I can until noon.

September 18, 2015 -- Sitting here listening to the radio and news on televison, and I'm wondering what is wrong with this country. There is no respect for our military - active or veterans - nor is there any for the police (state and local). This country is the most devisive it has ever been in my lifetime. Police are being shot; told they cannot use the restrooms or be served in restuarants; veterans are not getting the health care they deserve; our military is lacking in support from our government...This has got to stop! Let's begin another campaign to support our police on all levels. The next time you see an officer in a store, out on the street, etc. say "Thank you for your service to our community." We always thank our military men and women, and veterans. Let's add one more to that list. It's time the citizens of this country become active in supporting those who protect and serve our communities as well as our country. ...Ross Key
Lebanon, TN, July 8, 2015 -- Ross Key received two prestigious awards from Governor Bill Haslam and the State of Tennessee on Saturday, July 4, 2015 during his annual July 4th Bash celebration held at Smitty's Bar & Grill on the Hill. Colonel Garry L. Thomas presented Ross with a Certificate of Appreciation for his Traditional Country Network organization which promotes and preserves traditional country music. Thomas also presented Key with a recognition for his support in our military and veterans from the Governor and State of Tennessee which bestows the honorary title of Colonel Aide de Camp upon him.
Ross is the founder and CEO of the Traditional Country Network (TCN). The organization's main purpose is to preserve and promote Traditional Country music. To provide information, resources, and a network of professionals willing to share their knowledge and talents in an effort to assist those who are diligent in their desire to help protect Traditional Country music and keep it alive, whether through performance, songwriting, production, promotion, etc.
At this time, there are three networking events held, where everyone gathers at a location near Nashville to share experiences, knowledge, and support for each other. The ideas and ideals of TCN is to create a network of people who can help promote and preserve traditional country music by organizing events that will help others...and each other...to achieve their goals.
Key stated, "With all of us working together, we can create, and present, a strong voice for Traditional Country music. If each of us are willing to work together, we can bring the genre back to the airwaves and the fans. Thanks to all who have agreed to work together through TCN. We'll arrange a network "after hours" soon for everyone to attend and share ideas and help make a difference in not only our careers, but those who are just starting out."

OverkiII wrote:I really want to rob houses in the sims 3 but I am so confused on how to do it. BUT, I have done a bit of research so this is what I've done:
-I modded my game so I could reveal the hidden traits
-I took a career in criminal activity, and I think I am at level 8 of the job, and I have the robbers outfit
-I HAVE swiped stuff from people's houses because of my kleptomaniac trait
Now my main concern is how do I actually use the burglar trait to break into houses and steal from them. After I modded the game, I noticed that the burglar trait icon appeared by my sims traits. So I figured that all I had to do was put on the robber outfit and sneak over and walk into a house. But whenever I go to a house in the middle of the night, I still can't walk through the door. I can look in through the window, but I don't see any options to break in or use the door without permission!
I really don't know how to burglarize homes! Is there a certain system/time/house feature? Like, do I have to use a garage door? Does my sim have to be on the highest level of his career? Is there a certain time that a burglary option will show up? Am I doing this completely wrong?
Someone please help me and give me step by step instructions on how to break into a home without permission! I am so confused and I'm getting tired of failing! Especially after downloading the mod and putting it into the game.
MIRANDASIMS wrote:i have been playing around with that hidden trait. to get this trait, have the child of a burgular NCP. and no, i have not been using mods. what i have found so far, is that the child (once a young adult,) can sneak around, and wear the burgular's outfit. to sneak around, click on the ground like you are going to make them walk somewhere, and click the option that says: SNEAK. and if you click on the dresser, you get the regular choices, then you get an option that says: PUT ON SPECIAL OUTFIT. if you click on that, you get an option that is blank. click on that, and you change into a burgular's outfit. that is all that i have found, but i THINK that you can break into other peoples houses.
other: i also know that there is another hidden trait: pyromatic. you can light tiny fires which go out within 5 min. you get this by having a firefighter's son.
there are probably more hidden traits out there, but this is all i know.

PENROSE v. HART
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
PENROSE v. HART, 1 U.S. 378 (1788)
1 U.S. 378 (Dall.)
Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County
December Term, 1788
On a rule to shew cause why the Judgment confessed by warrant of Attorney in this case should not be opened, Fisher stated that several partial payments had been made by the Defendant,
which the Plaintiff had applied first to the discharge of the arrearages of interest; whereas he insisted, that it ought first to have been deducted from the principal debt.
But Shippen, President, said, that the practice had been otherwise; and he thought with great reason and propriety. He remembered to have heard of an old decision when Logan was Chief Justice, in which it was expressly settled, that money paid on account of a bond, should first be applied to discharge the interest due at the time of the payment, and the residue, if any, credited towards satisfaction of the principal. By this rule, the Gentlemen of the Bar had uniformly governed their calculations before the Revolution.
Lewis, for the Plaintiff, insisted that the practice was the same at the present day, and appealed to the Attornies in Court, who confirmed his assertion.*
[Footnote *] See ant. 124.

"Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him."(Matthew 6:8)
Fathers have a special role in a child's life. They give guidance and direction. Their wisdom helps to navigate through life. Their love and affection give security. Also, they are known for fun times with piggy-back rides, bouncing on a knee, and providing experiences of laughter. Most importantly they pass along faith and a relationship with God.
Believers in Jesus have God as Father. He is very aware of all His children and their needs. The Holy Bible states, "Your Father knows what you need before you ask him." The Heavenly Father gives amazing wisdom, spiritual gifts, and the experience of His love. His care is awesome as he confirms His role in a believers' life in thousands of ways. These may be evident but most of them are hidden. The most visible is salvation with forgiveness of sins through Jesus, the Son.
Believer, honor your Father as the Bible teaches and celebrate Him with praise toward the Heavenly Father for who He is and what He does for you.
Amen. Blessed Holy Spirit!

Long before I was a state senator, before becoming a small-business owner but right after I had started my own family, I became a licensed professional engineer. I was motivated by the opportunity to better my wife and children, and I loved the opportunity to fix things and to solve complex problems. Along the way, I became inspired by the Engineer's Code of Ethics.

It has been an honor to serve as your state treasurer for the past 3 1/2 years. Since taking office in January 2011, I have woken up each day focused on protecting Colorado's taxpayers.

Don Quick: Fighting to keep communities safe

As readers of romance, we're familiar with literary prejudice– the Fabio jokes, the scoffs and eye rolls, the shame in reading one in public. I always defend my preferred genre, and berate people for making such judgments about an entire genre that they've never read. Woe be they who dare disparage a romance novel without having read it.
And then there's Danielle Steel. When talking about romance novels, I'm careful to distinguish between what I read, and her "family dramas." I hedge when they're lumped together. I roll my eyes. I scoff. And I've never read a single one of her books.
How is my attitude any different from the prejudices I face as romance reader? I'll tell you — it's not. While some insist they read "women's fiction — not romance," I shove Danielle Steel's books away, judging without having read them.
To retain my moral high ground, I've thought about just giving in and reading one. But while I have gained enough confidence to bring up books with the most ridiculous of covers to the library counter or store register, I just can't bring myself to do the same with a Danielle Steel title. Mostly, I'm afraid of actually liking it and becoming someone who reads Danielle Steel novels, which in my mind has been the equivalent of throwing any literary intellect out the window. It's not fair to her as a very successful author, and it's not fair to her millions of readers, but it's my gut reaction.
And how often have I had a snap judgment of people I've seen reading science fiction or fantasy, another oft disparaged genre? Or dismissed someone for preferring graphic novels to the non-illustrated kind? I'm clearly not alone in this. Even mysteries and thrillers, generally the most accepted among genre fiction, are frequently labeled "trash."
So I offer myself, and all of you, a challenge. As victims and perpetrators of book bias, we should all read a book we would have otherwise shunned, whether it's a pure fantasy novel, or maybe a graphic novel, or a Danielle Steel or some other luridly connoted novel. I, for one, will be going out and, ahem, steeling myself to bring one up to the library check-out counter, and maybe even bring it into work to read on a slow day. Will you join in?

Two-Faced - marked by deliberate deceptiveness especially by pretending one set of feelings and acting under the influence of another. That is the description in the dictionary. If you're told someone is two faced, what would that mean to you?
To me, if someone is called two faced they are untrustworthy. They are acting under false pretenses for one reason or another. These are people I would be wary of sharing confidential information with.
The reason for this post is because I had a realisation at work today. As I was listening to the latest round of
"... and they just stand around chatting all day. They never offer any help and we are run off our feet!" I found myself agreeing and offering similar situations to the pot. I didn't say anything derogatory about anyone, just merely agreed that I had witnessed a similar situation.
It was a bit later (after yet another of these conversations between different members of staff) that I started to wonder if there was anyone at all who was trust worthy? Did everyone moan and complain about everyone else? I know small businesses have a tendency towards gossip as there are fewer staff and everyone works in closer proximity to each other. Watching all the staff interact as a new comer it is hard to tell which of the relationships are actually genuine. I know I have had three years out of a working environment but is this really what people have evolved into? Is this what happens after a few years of bitching on social media? The edges become blurred and you can't tell the difference between real and virtual interaction.
I digress. The thought that occurred to me today was, am I one of them? Do people think I am two faced purely because I agree with them? Having read the definition, it would appear that I am. I am quite upset about this as I have no desire to be labelled under this heading, as I'm sure many people don't! I do try my best not to be negative about anyone (unless I'm really annoyed!) or enter into idle gossip.
It then made me think about my view of the people I work with. I like them all. They are a great team to work with. At the same time I can see their weaknesses and where they could improve to become an amazing team. I also know I wouldn't socialise with any of them. Not because they aren't nice people, just because they are the people I work with. I have always kept those two area of my life separate. I have no idea why. Maybe it is an attempt to keep my private life private should they run out of gossip fodder.
After thinking about this today, I am no closer to a conclusion. I have just made the decision to remove myself from any conversation that takes a negative turn. I don't want to become a gossip monger or to become known as two faced. You can find me oozing positivity and happiness from my till!

The Boston Red Sox dropped another close game on Tuesday night. Closer Koji Uehara gave up the go-ahead run in the top of the ninth inning as the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim bead the Red Sox 4-3 to take the first two games of a four-game series.
It was another quality start by Allen Webster, who settled down after giving up three runs in the top of the third inning. The right-hander worked six innings and really showed progress in his ability to bounce back. The Angels got on the board with an RBI single by Kole Calhoun followed by RBIs by Mike Trout and Albert Pujols to put the Angels up 3-1. The three runs came after a solo home run by David Ortiz put the Sox up 1-0.
Webster was able to get control of his fastball after that and retired nine of the next 12 batters he faced. After the game, Webster attributed his ability to settle down in games to confidence. He said, "I've just got to keep telling myself to trust my stuff. Let them put the ball in play." That strategy worked for Webster, but again, the Red Sox offense had trouble putting runs on the board.
Angels' starter Jared Weaver kept the home team at bay despite giving up the first inning homer to Big Papi. The Red Sox went 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position. They were able to get a run in the fifth inning on a groundout by Mike Napoli scored Dustin Pedroia to trim the lead to 3-2. Boston finally tied the score in the sixth on a sacrifice fly by Brock Holt. Overall Weaver allowed just the three runs on sevens hits over 5 1/3 innings.
Red Sox reliever Alex Wilson relieved Webster and was able to pitch two perfect innings before giving way to the usually reliable Koji Uehara. Unfortunately it wasn't his night as he gave up a ninth-inning RBI double to Angels' catcher Chris Iannetta to give the Angels a 4-3 lead and eventual victory. Although Webster got the no-decision, Red Sox manager John Farrell was still encouraged by the outing. He said, "When he's right like for the vast majority of tonight, put the ball on the ground, ground balls. It's good to see him continue to back up outings in a positive way and build some momentum and I'm sure some confidence in his own right."

Howdy true believers.
As I told you Thursday I was chosen as part of the Beta program for Warlords of Draenor. In the past I have given this key away due to the fact that Alpha/Beta of a game spoils a lot of the game when it comes to it going live. You have spent hours upon hours on a game only to have it all wiped away when it is time to play 'for real'.
But in this case since I have been consistently writing about my travels in gold, making it was needed to get a glimpse of just what we will be stepping into when the portal opens to a new frontier.
But I didn't want to really write about that today. What I did want to talk about being just some of the reactions that occurred when people checked their email to see if they had been chosen.
The majority of players never says a word on the forums. They have never emailed developers, bloggers, and barely say anything in the game itself. If they say something it is in private messages or even chirping in their guild chat. They accept the hand that is dealt to them and continue on.
But then you have the minority that will say something about the smallest of changes in what their consider fairness. In this case the use of the word 'veteran' player when it came to passing on beta keys.
This basically blew up the fan base for those that didn't receive keys on the first wave of invites. Credientials flying around the developers:
'I have played for x years.... I should have received one'
'My friend has been only playing for a year and he got one, I have been playing for x years and I got nothing'
And of course the prerequisite 'I quit, this is isn't fair. I didn't receive a beta key'
I've commented many times on the occasional sense of entitlement that some players have when it comes to their gaming. That magically their 15 dollars is more important than the 15 dollars of a subscription to anyone else. Their evidence to this pseudo importance is the amount of time they have played or even dare I say it, the amount of gold they have made in the game.
Here are the plain facts as they are. You are deserving of nothing from Blizzard for your 15 dollars to play a game. Whether it is on the live servers or the PTR's. They truly owe you nothing but the game they provide. This also means by the rules that they set down, they followed exactly what they intended to do. They targeted 'some' veterans to be in the opening wave of the beta program. Not all, and with no promises that everyone would get a key to the holy gates. The only guaranteed keys that were passed out was at PAX and a few shows. The rest was up to the powers that be to do as they please.
And here is the kicker to it all. You didn't miss a lot. Yes the graphics are outstanding. Even with the lowest resolution they shine. The new world is outstanding and will be just as enjoyable and breathtaking as the first time you stepped into Negrand and all of its splendor. There are changes into how you dps, heal and tank. It is new, and shiny and was enjoyable for the time i could spend on the server.
It was also frustrating to get kicked off every 15 minutes. To not be able to copy my characters over to the new server and having to keep track of the blue posts for up to the minute fixes. There were tons of people running around waiting to jump through the portal as it was up and down constantly. I missed my add-ons from the start by having to remind my keyboard commands seemingly every time I logged back in.
But somewhere I loved the combination of seeing the new world and wanting to tear my keyboard apart with my teeth. The next few weeks are going to be balanced between being on the beta servers seeing gold making process, and staying on the live servers, making sure I have squeezed every ounce of gold I can before Warlords hits the market. I have no doubt I will need it all.
So before you look to burn your bridges with World of Warcraft remember, we have a long road ahead of us together. This is just one step in a huge project that will be well worth the time and effort. Losing your cool just, well, isn't really that cool.

Doing Business in Belgium
Belgium is a highly developed and densely populated country centrally located at the "heart" of Europe. It is one of the founding members of the European Union, and Brussels, its capital, is also the capital of Europe.

Description: Flat seam roofing systems are typically used on roofs that are flat or have a low pitch. They are also used on curved surfaces such as domes and barrel vaults.
Flat seam roofing is constructed of 18" by 24", 20 oz. rectangular cold rolled copper sheets. Two adjacent sides of the sheets are folded over and two are folded under to form 3/4" locks. Copper cleats of 16 or 20 oz. cold rolled copper are installed in each of the longitudinal and transverse seams. The finished pans are interlocked longitudinally and transversely, with staggered transverse seams. For applications of this system to wall cladding, see Section 4.6.7.
Where slopes are 3:12 or less, seams are soldered, see Roofing Systems - Special Roofing Design and Installation Considerations. The edges of the sheets should be cleaned, wire brushed, fluxed and pretinned to a width of 1-1/2" before folding. After locked seams are engaged they should be malleted or dressed down and thoroughly sweated full with solder. The soldering coppers should weigh at least 5 pounds per pair, unless torch-heated soldering copper is used, in which case the soldering coppers should weigh at least 3 pounds per pair.
To accommodate the accumulation of expansion, roofs over 30 feet in the direction of continuous, longitudinal seams should be divided by expansion battens. These tapered battens should be spaced no more than 30 feet apart. They are covered with 20 oz. copper sheets in 8 to 10 feet lengths, locked and soldered together. See Detail E for additional information.
Special Conditions: Where roof slopes are greater than 4" per foot, seams may be filled with a rubber or synthetic based sealant instead of solder. See Roofing Systems - Special Roofing Design and Installation Considerations.
Decking Requirements: Nailable deck or nailing strips.
A. Standard Roofing Square Shown are the typical roofing square and the formed pans. The corners of the sheet are clipped before the edges are folded.
B. Typical Flat Seam Roof This drawing illustrates the overall concept of flat seam roofing. The longitudinal seams are typically continuous, whereas the transverse seams are staggered. Each pan is cleated to the roof deck. The pans should be installed so that water always sheds from one pan to the underlying pan.
C. Edge Detail A typical edge detail is shown. This design allows water to shed from the roof at this edge. Other methods, preventing this flow, use battens similar to the gable rake detail for batten seam roofs ( Detail A).
D. Eave and Gable End This detail shows the 20 oz. copper rake or eave sheet. The lower edge of this sheet hooks over the edge strip. The upper edge is locked and soldered into the typical roof sheets.
E. Expansion Batten The tapered expansion batten shown is typically 3" wide at the top and 2-1/4" at the bottom. The height should be at least 1-1/2". The 20 oz. copper cover sheets are continuous from 4" on one side of the batten to 4" on the other. They are bent at right angles where they meet the tapered batten, leaving some room for movement. These sheets are locked and soldered into the flat seam roofing.
F. Detail at Valley The copper flashing is laid into the valley and its upper edges held by cleats spaced no more than 12" O.C. The flat seam roofing laps the flashing at least 6". Two methods are shown for engaging the lower edge of the roofing. The one on the right uses a continuous lock strip soldered to the valley flashing. The one on the left uses a double fold in the valley flashing.
For Additional Information:
- Roofing Systems - Introduction, for general roofing system descriptions and requirements.
- Flashing and Copings, under the appropriate sections for flashing details.
- Basic Details for information on seams, fixed and expansion cleats, hold-downs, edge strips and transverse seams.
Equipment Available: A variety of tools such as mallets and pan folders are available.

Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz received today a phone call from U.S. President George W. Bush, who expressed, on behalf of himself, his family and the people of the United States of America, deepest condolences on the passing of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Fahd bin Abdulaziz, who died early this morning.
Meanwhile, messages of sympathy are pouring in from all over the world, praising King Fahd's great vision and leadership. Since the news broke, heads of state of Arab countries have been phoning and sending cables of condolence. Britain's Queen Elizabeth commented on the close relationship between the two countries, and German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder referred to the late king's wisdom and far-sightedness. French President Jacques Chirac said: "During his reign King Fahd was, above all, concerned with the safety of his people. In troubled times, he guaranteed the integrity of his country and defended regional stability."

Uh oh. Seems like the last few articles of this column provoked the release of a lot of pent-up frustration by women toward men and vice versa. If anyone thinks that all of the men and women in today's dating scene think fondly of each other, think again. There are single men in society today that feel frustrated by women's behavior. Similarly, there are many women in society who believe this is the worst generation of eligible ... or not-so-eligible ... bachelors ever.
That said, I now present you with my 15th Edition of Feedback from Readers. As most of my long-time readers know, I usually feature feedback I have received from my male and female readers after every five-to-seven articles that have been published for this column. Since my last installment of Feedback from Readers, I have had seven articles and one movie review.
[Note: Most of the first names have been changed for the sake of anonymity, and many questions and/or comments may have been edited, condensed or paraphrased to some degree in order to either save space or correct spelling and grammatical errors]
Email feedback in response to the article, Men will usually cheat as long as there are women who offer them the opportunity
From Glenn B.:
"Alan, I cannot tell you how on-point you were with your article about women being willing to have sex with men who are married, engaged, or already have a woman. Excuse my language, but there are some scandalous bitches out here. I always get more pu**y thrown at me when I am attached to someone than I do when I am single.
It's like, in women's eyes, your social market value increases when they know you have someone that you are content with. [Women] always want the challenge of being able to see if they can take a man away from his wife or woman. If not completely steal him away, at least borrow him for a few days or a few weeks. I have no respect for none of these [women] who throw pu**y at married men. My opinion? I believe there are more women who want to tempt a man who is already in a relationship to cheat than there are women who want to connect with a man who is single! Keep telling the truth Alan."
Alan Roger Currie's response: Next time Glenn, you need to be bolder and tell me how you REALLY feel. Okay? (sarcasm included, of course)
I have always said: If all women in society decided tonight that they were only going to have sex with a man who they were married to or engaged to, cheating by men would end overnight. Even to a lesser extreme, if all women said, I am going to refuse to have sex with any man who is married, engaged, or otherwise romantically involved, again ... cheating would end overnight.
The reality is, like I said in that article and you reiterated ... many women become aroused and excited over the prospect of having sex with a man who seems to be already sexually content with a spouse or female companion. I have actually met some women who have conveyed to me that they will ONLY interact romantically and sexually with married men. Bad karma is sure to come their way at some point in their lives.
Email feedback in response to the article, The history of 'casual' sex: feminists wanted sexual freedom ... and they got it
From Audrea W.:
"Mr. Currie, you are a chauvinist and sexist of the highest order. I believe the only reason women read your articles is because you are so easy to love to hate. Most of what you write is misogynistic drivel.
So life was great when men were able to have a wife and Lord knows how many mistresses on the side, but now that many women are able to have their cake and eat it too, you men want to all of the sudden whine and complain about it? Give me a fu**ing break.
My mother got cheated on by my father repeatedly, and she just sucked it up like most women in her generation did. From what I understand, both of my grandmothers were cheated on by both of my grandfathers. For the sake of maintaining their marriages, they chose to remain silent about it.
I for one am not going to let a man treat me like a sperm receptacle, unpaid nanny to his children, and unpaid maid to his dirty, nasty house. I have a career of my own, I make good money, and I do not need a man in my life other than to please me sexually from time to time.
You men need to wake up and realize that women run the show now Mr. Currie! We are more influential than at any previous time in our nation's history. Deal with it."
Alan Roger Currie's response: Thank you for the love and respect Audrea. I appreciate it. Glad you took time to read at least one of my articles. Unlike most of my unpaid nannies and unpaid maids who I force to read all of my articles, you are one of the few lucky women who get to pick and choose which articles tickle your fancy.
First off, you need to read my response to 'Glenn B.' above. No one "forces" a woman to become a married man's mistress or side piece. Women choose to be the on-the-side 'sperm receptacle' for a married man of interest.
I am sorry to hear that damn near every woman in your family's ancestry got cheated on ... but I have to say: what does that say about your mother and grandmothers' choice in men? I assume men with a low degree of moral character and integrity must have appealed to them. Your mother and both grandmothers chose to remain with their respective husbands. Again, no one "forced" them to.
So if society is now run by women, like you suggest, what have been the improvements? After all, would not you agree that the #1 objective for women to 'run things' would be to improve many aspects of society? Or no? Less marriages, more divorces, more babies out of wedlock, and more effeminate men. Yep. You just gotta love how society is improving these days. You be well, okay? Sincerely, Your favorite 'love-to-hate' Chauvinist / Misogynist / Sexist.
Email feedback in response to the article, The rise of masculine, dominant women and effeminate, submissive men in society
From Sara Lynn D.:
"Alan, I saw your article about 'dominant women and submissive men' on Facebook. I actually agree with a lot of what you said in your article. I also listened to your talk radio interview with Ms. Katarina Phang about similar issues.
Here is my frustration: I do not want to be the dominant partner in my romantic relationships with men, but in the long run, that is what usually happens. I more than want what you refer to as an 'Alpha male,' but the truth of the matter is, most of the men in today's society are weak, spineless punks.
Many of them will initially attempt to give you the impression that they are decisive leaders, but many of these men want to be mothered and taken care of. The few men who are very masculine and financially responsible have so many women at their beck and call that I am not willing to compete with the other women to fit into their rotation.
The current state of manhood is sad. Probably the worst it has ever been."
Alan Roger Currie's response: As a man, I cannot totally disagree with what you expressed. I would direct most of the blame on the (weak) men themselves, and a small portion on women (particularly mothers who have raised these weak men).
Most of my female Facebook friends are probably a tad bit frustrated with me right now, because I recently expressed some agitation with all of these "Real Men Do [fill in characteristic / personal attribute here]" quotes. A few examples would be, "Real Men Cook and Clean for their Wives" or "Real Men Make Their Women Feel Like Queens." I know some of these are lighthearted in tone, but I also know many women who post these sorts of quotes on a weekly, if not daily basis.
A woman can never validly describe what a 'Real Man' is, or how they should behave. That is women's first mistake. Only a man can teach another man how to be a 'Real Man.' Let's use the dictionary definition of 'real': Genuine; not counterfeit or imitation; not artificial; Authentic. Many women (and men) tend to have this mistaken belief that a 'real man' is one who is fawning, flattering, accommodating, gentle, emotionally sensitive, will do anything to please and impress a woman, etc. No, no, no.
Any man who is decisive, honest, sincere, financially and personally responsible, and accountable for his own actions is a 'real man.' He does not try to live up to the expectations of others, nor does he allow other people's subjective criticisms and personal opinions to dictate how he behaves. He totally "owns" his own personality. That ... in my mind ... is a real man. All of this other 'Metrosexual' influenced nonsense is invalid and detrimental to what true manhood is all about.
Sara Lynn . . . do not give in to weak men. Hold out until a decisive man with backbone comes your way.
Email feedback in response to the article, The 'platonic' husband: not all women marry because of genuine sexual attraction
From Darren R.:
"Wow! Alan my man, you dropped some pure knowledge in that article about men being a woman's platonic husband. I shared that article with just about all of my male friends. That article was hot fire for sure.
Thing is, a lot of these weak a** SIMP types don't mind being a woman's Beta Bitch Boy these days. It is a more elaborate and indefinite form of being a woman's 'trick.' Think about it Alan. A pimp sends his hoes out to take advantage of naive, horny, desperate men for a night. The trick pays the ho, and she gives up to half of her earnings to her pimp.
What you have now is, the Alpha males are boning women who are married to wealthy Beta males, and then those women are buying gifts for the Alpha males and taking care of them financially. Talk about high powered pimpin'!!!
If Beta males with money are foolish enough to think that all of their wives married for them for 'true love,' that is on them. They are stupid. I will never allow myself to get played like a woman's Beta Bitch Boy. Straight Alpha til the day I die!!"
Alan Roger Currie's response: Quick note: For those readers who may be a wee bit ignorant to the terms 'Alpha' male and 'Beta' male, please read the following previous articles from this column: 1) How women respond to you often times depends on your 'Alpha' vs. 'Beta' traits 2) Why the relationship between 'The Fonz' and 'Pinky Tuscadero' failed to last on ABC's 'Happy Days'
Darren, your feedback had me laughing out loud man. 'Beta Bitch Boy' is hilarious. If you read my book, The Possibility of Sex: How Naive and Lustful Men are Manipulated by Women Regularly, you know I expressed a lot of the same sentiments that you did in your feedback. Some men actually wrote me saying that portions of that book left them feeling depressed.
Believe it or not, there are some men who genuinely did not know that women would do something as hardcore as marry them for nothing more than financial support and platonic companionship, and then have a guy or two on the side who they were having sexual relations with. I hated to be the 'first one' to break that news to them, but that type of scenario been going on for at least the last 50-60+ years.
As I have said before, here is how you can always tell when you are a woman's 'Beta Bitch Boy' (or to put it more tamely, her 'platonic husband' or 'platonic boyfriend'):
1) The sex between you and your girlfriend / wife is infrequent and erratic at best
2) You find yourself having to almost "beg" your wife or girlfriend for sex
3) Your girlfriend or wife does a lot of socializing without you, particularly on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays
4) You whine and complain about your woman's behavior far more than she whines and complains about your behavior
5) At minimum, you find yourself feeling 'taken for granted' ... and at maximum, you often feel 'disrespected' by your wife or girlfriend
6) Your wife or girlfriend is ready to leave you immediately anytime you're having financial troubles or you are in-between jobs
If you are a man reading this article, and you have experienced one or more of those six characteristics in your relationship with your wife, fiancée, or long-term girlfriend ... then that means that 99.9% chance, you are - as Darren would say - that woman's 'Beta Bitch Boy'.
Email feedback in response to the article, If prostitution is illegal, why is a 'Sugar Daddy-Sugar Baby' arrangement legal?
From Oren P.:
"Why limit your questions to women and sex - when those who make our laws are usually prostitutes of a different kind themselves? Why exclude the people who decide what is or is not 'legal'?
And if it is about amount of money or terms of the exchange you cannot just ignore how our financial system is set up. As for societal views about gender roles in relationship most people today seem a bit confused - especially in regard to women wanting to be simultaneously and situationally treated the same as yet different than men - to their advantage. Your questions seem more rhetorical than seeking any explanation or justification for our double standards."
Alan Roger Currie's response: I would not agree that I went out of my way to 'exclude' a lengthy and detailed discussion about the duplicity and hypocrisy demonstrated by man of our politicians and lawmakers. And yes ... many of my questions posed in my articles are rhetorical by design.
I am actually interviewing the woman mentioned in that article - Taylor B. Jones - tonight on my talk radio show. You should tune in and call into the show if you have questions and/or comments.
I agree with you that there are many double-standards that are executed and employed in society - some intentional, others more out of ingrained habit - that tend to benefit one side of the gender coin or the other. As long as we can agree to discuss and debate these issues objectively and maturely, I think we can always agree to highlight and hopefully weed out those that feed into the growing chasm between the two genders.
Email feedback in response to the article, Spoiled women: the 'nice guys' who love them & the 'jerks' who these women love to hate
From Dee Dee F.:
"With all due respect Mr. Currie, I am sick of men like you perpetuating this misguided myth that nine out of every ten women in society want a 'bad boy' or 'jerk' type rather than a kind, considerate gentleman. Where are you fools getting this from?
Ever since I was 25 or so, I have never been attracted to 'men behaving badly,' and I never will be again. If a man does not conduct himself with class and respect toward me, I want nothing to do with him. At all. I now only interact with a small circle of classy men who treat me with the highest degree of respect. They know I do not allow any foolishness from them.
Only women who love to be abused and disrespected love those bad boy and jerk types. No woman with high self-esteem would be caught dead in a relationship with a man of that nature.
My own father taught me that a man should 'spoil' a woman if he truly loves her. Don't you spoil your wife Mr. Currie? Oh wait, from what I have read, you are not married. You ever wonder why? LOL Get to spoiling some women and maybe you might find you a wife!"
Alan Roger Currie's response: Good to hear from a woman who has been married to a high quality, classy, socially refined man. Ooops! Oh wait ... aren't you are still single? Riiiiiiiiight. What benefit is it for you to have a 'small circle of classy men' that you socialize with if none of them are dropping down to one knee and proposing to you? Talk to my new friend Darren above. Maybe you have a small circle of Beta Bitch Boys at your disposal.
And your story sounds familiar: Mess around with the 'bad boys' between the ages of 16 and 24, or between 18 and 34, and then once you realize that none of them are going to marry you, you then start looking for the 'sweet, caring, compromising nice guys' that will let you throw punches at them and kick them in an elevator without consequences or retaliation.
And since you offered some words of wisdom from your father, I will share with you what my late mother once told me: All women want to be respected, and will ask to be respected ... but only a certain percentage of those women will actually do what it takes to truly earn a man's respect. My mother earned my father's respect, and that is why he married her, and remained married to her until his death. If I have a 'weakness' regarding my interactions with women, it would be that I feel as though my late mother raised the bar so high for my perception of what a 'quality' woman looks like and acts like, that many of the women I meet seem to fall a bit short of her exemplary standards.
Good luck with your 'small circle of platonic boyfriends.' When you finally get a ring on your finger, touch base with me again. I will give you a public congratulations.
If you, as a reader, ever want to offer me feedback on one or more of my articles, you can do so below (comments section), on Twitter, on Facebook, or via Email.

Infographic: Relief Well Reaches 8000 Foot Depth
BP has released an infographic showing the current state of the Relief Well, the "final solution" in resolving the Gulf Oil leak caused by the Deepwater Horizon, that shows the current progress (As of yesterday) as well as the proposed design of how they plan to intersect the previous pipe.
BP needs to cement 7 casings into place before the relief well can intersect with the main drill pipe which is pouring approximately 5,000 barrels of oil per day into the ocean. They have completed 3 casings, with 4 remaining. They have reached a drill depth of just below 10,000 feet, with another 8,000 feet remaining. At about 12,000 feet they will begin angling toward the center of the damaged oil pipe.

There are few better speedy fall sidedishes than microwaved acorn squash. While dried beans and fish are my two other microwave favorites (beans cook quickly and hold their shape and fish remains tender and juicy), acorn squash satisfies both the need for a vegetable and the desire for a sweet. Usually baked for an hour or so in the oven, this version is done in about ten minutes (five for one half) and also makes a filling lunch should you want something hot and simple. Pair it will a grilled chop or the Thanksgiving turkey and you're done. Sweet, nutty squash. Your fall go-to vegetable.
Acorn Squash in the Microwave
Cut in half one acorn squash of any color. Remove seeds with a spoon. Place squash halves in a microwave safe dish (2 qt Pyrex) and fill each with 1T brown sugar and 1t butter. Sprinkle with just a tad of salt and pepper. Cover and microwave 8-10 minutes until tender. Uncover carefully; the steam is very hot.
Another version
If you'd like an entire meal in your squash, scoop out a quarter cup of squash from each half and chop; set aside. In a medium skillet, cook 1/2 pound breakfast sausage* with 1/4 cup each chopped onion and green pepper and the chopped squash. Chopped peeled apples are a possible addition, as well, if you like them. Season well with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sage. Cook until vegetables are tender and the sausage is well-browned. Add 1/2 cup cooked rice and stir well. Remove from heat and set aside.
Cook squash as above, but skip the brown sugar and butter. Remove cover carefully and fill each squash half with the sausage and rice mixture. Place dish back in the microwave and heat on high for a minute or two.
*For a vegetarian option, scrambled eggs and a 1/4 tsp curry powder can be substituted for the sausage.

5. The Cowboy Boot
Don't be fooled by the full-calf of a traditional cowboy boot. They are unlined and breathable - perfect for the summer! Check out the D & G boot - it's a vented version!
Which brings me to ....
4: The Summer Mesh Boot
I'm honestly not a fan of this look. In theory I am because I look back to my notes from 3 years ago and see "Mesh Boots for Summer" among the creations in my head. These all remind me of a wicker chair.
These Tramper Moccasins are perfect for the summer. Combine them with a loose-fitting jumper, a zippered dress, or high-waisted shorts for an updated summer look.
It's a Thong Sandal and a Short Boot all in one! Never thought I'd say "thong" and "boot" in the same sentence but then again, I was forced to watch a show called "Dating in the Dark" last night at the laundromat. Our world is changing fast, not always in a good way, and now we wear Boot-Thongs.
These Boot-Thongs didn't look right on me because I have muscular calves...This is why I wear flip-flops in the summer.
1. The Hybrid Sandal-Boot
My absolute favorite for this Summer 2010. Perfect for any woman who wants to sport an edgier look combined with the allure of a sandal. There are so many versions of the Hybrid Sandal-Boot: wedged sole, gladiator, peep-toe, peep-ankle...I could do another post entirely on these alone...
Before this post and the summer season draw to a close I would just like to thank Stylesight and Net-a-porter for providing an endless supply of inspirational photos for my use in this column.

The Britishisation of American English
Ugh, that's twice I had to write out that ugly first term. The article is from the BBC Magazine and I wonder how accurate it is on American usage.
Here's the opening:
There is little that irks British defenders of the English language more than Americanisms, which they see creeping insidiously into newspaper columns and everyday conversation. But bit by bit British English is invading America too.
"Spot on - it's just ludicrous!" snaps Geoffrey Nunberg, a linguist at the University of California at Berkeley.
"You are just impersonating an Englishman when you say spot on. Will do - I hear that from Americans. That should be put into quarantine," he adds.
And don't get him started on the chattering classes - its overtones of a distinctly British class system make him quiver.
But not everyone shares his revulsion at the drip, drip, drip of Britishisms - to use an American term - crossing the Atlantic.
