Almost immediately I received an email from Nationwide Voice Messaging thanking me for opting to order their services when I registered on EZ-Greets.com website. I tried to respond directly to the email since no telephone number, mailing address or email address was provided. My email to the Activations Department, Nationwide Voice Messaging bounced back to me.
Needless-to-say, I will not be accepting, using or paying for their service. I hope something can be done to stop this company and others who are using similar deceptive Internet practices will be stopped perhaps by a class action lawsuit. This should definitely be an illegal practice.

Welcome to VAKS
Your list to finding Vans and Kitchens offering food, drink and contact for the homeless and disadvantaged members of our community.

If you would like to volunteer with any of these organisations, please feel free to contact any of the particular organisation on the VAKS website directly to find out their needs. I'm sure they would love to hear from you.

Which Mode of Locomotion Is the Most Efficient?
Running, flying, and swimming require more energy than sitting still, but how do they compare? The greatest differences between moving on land, in the air, and in water result from the differences in support and resistance to movement provided by water and air. The weight of swimming animals is fully supported by the surrounding water, and no effort goes into supporting the body, while running and flying animals must support the full weight of their bodies. On the other hand, water presents considerable resistance to movement, air much less, so that flying and running require less energy to push the medium out of the way.
A simple way to compare the costs of moving for different animals is to determine how much energy it takes to move. The energy cost to run, fly, or swim is in each case the energy required to move one unit of body mass over one unit of distance with that mode of locomotion. (Energy is measured in the metric system as a kilocalorie[kcal] or, technically, 4.184 kilojoules [note that the Calorie measured in food diets and written with a capital C is equivalent to 1 kcal]; body mass is measured in kilograms, where 1 kilogram [kg] is 2.2 pounds; distance is measured in kilometers, where 1 kilometer [km] is 0.62 miles). The graph to the right displays three such "cost-of-motion" studies. The blue squares represent running; the red circles, flying; and the green triangles, swimming. In each study, the line is drawn as the statistical "best-fit" for the points. Some animals like humans have data in two lines, as they both run (well) and swim (poorly). Ducks have data in all three lines, as they not only fly (very well), but also run and swim (poorly).
Applying Concepts
a. Variables. In the graph, what is the dependent variable?
b. Comparing Continuous Variables. Do the three modes of locomotion have the same or different costs?

Hi all!
I know that a lot of you write blogs, and most of the rest of you read blogs (and if you don't, well, now you do!). I've become curious about people's preferences regarding blog reading and writing, and so I've set up a survey asking about those preferences. I'd really appreciate it if you'd go through and give me your responses!
Edit: Yes, the survey is now closed. It was meant to be a quick snippet, not something long-running and comprehensive.
Thank you to everyone who participated (or tried to)!

Rated 4 out of 5�by 20 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5�by cit UGLY I am so sorry I purchased these shoes. They are the ugliest shoes I have ever owned. They are very wide on the top section of the foot and I wore them one day and will never wear them again. I would not advise anyone to buy them. August 28, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by EaglePlayer8 Not the Best If your foot tends to slide up against the shoe during tennis matches DO NOT get these. I just keep getting blisters from these and they kill my feet. Plus they only last me one season of high school tennis. August 22, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by TrishaW Great shoes, perfect color, stylish The only thing that could be better is the support but otherwise these are great. Perfect tiffany mint color August 16, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by ajh599 Stitches Broke First Day I got these shoes for my upcoming tennis season and within the first day of wearing them, the front stitches broke on both shoes. I had 3-hr twice a day practices and they didn't hold up. I know someone else who bought these shoes and had the same issue. My tennis coach even labeled them as the worst tennis shoes to buy. They're nice looking and comfortable, but definitely not long-lasting. July 18, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Kimmusjax Love them! Bought these for my daughter who just started tennis lessons and they are a great fit! Very pleased with the quality and the price wasn't terrible. June 4, 2016

Rated 5 out of 5�by Sandie Great product This product was exactly what I expected - the right size, great condition and arrived in the expected time period. April 7, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Kat Prompt service and a beautiful shoe Unfortunately the shoe was too narrow for me, but your service was amazing. I felt like the shoe arrived overnight and really liked the free shipping and return you offered. I hope to order from you many more times. March 29, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by 3GirlMom Great tennis court shoe for teenage girl! Although nearly impossible to find in-store, this was easy to find on website. I has just the right amount of color and fits the way we expected Nike's to fit. March 14, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by TennisPlayer A poor substitution I have been buying the women's city court tennis shoe for years. Unfortunately, it has, apparently, been discontinued. I ordered the vapor court as a possible replacement. I was extremely unhappy with the quality and comfort of this shoe in comparison. Please Nike....bring back the city court. My tentative replacement is a competitor's shoe. You're losing a long time customer. November 7, 2015

Synchronize Your Self-Storage Business to Beat the CompetitionSimilar to synchronized swimming, the intricacies of self-storage are more complicated than they look, requiring training, a commitment to fundamentals and dedication to continually develop new skill sets. Just as synchronized swim teams develop routines and continue to tinker and perfect them throughout a season to compete at the highest level, self-storage operators must continually hone their operation to consistently beat the competition.
Charitable Commitments Can Bond a Self-Storage Facility With Its CommunityWith so much attention tied to the day-to-day operation of a self-storage facility, it can be easy to have tunnel vision about the business and lose focus on the community it serves. Guest blogger Robert Madsen shares details about a recent customer-appreciation charitable event including unexpected rewards that further cemented the bond between his self-storage business and its community.
A Little Summertime Reading for Self-Storage OperatorsDo you remember celebrating summertime as a kid, spending days lazing around doing the things you loved? For me it was lounging by the pool with my nose in a really good book. I often lack the time to luxuriate in reading, and lot of professionals are in the same boat. But it may be worthwhile to spend a bit of your work day reading when the book helps you do a better job and improve your business. Here are some guilt-free summer reading options for self-storage operators.
Self-Storage Crime Knows No Boundaries, Not Even the PottyGuest blogger Gina Six Kudo remodeled her self-storage facility's customer restroom only to have someone connected to a tenant steal some incidental items. While the cost of the crime was small, the aggravation wasn't. Gina discusses the incident, how her facility handled the crime and the advice she got from fellow members of Self-Storage Talk.
Loose Language: How One Bad Apple Can Sour Your Self-Storage BusinessCommonly used self-storage terms like "free" or "secure" may seem innocent, but all it takes is one bad apple—a disgruntled customer with an ax to grind—to cause major headaches for a facility operator. A federal judgment against a major department-store retailer this week also resonates the importance of understanding the risks of advertising and not testing how a court might interpret gray areas of language.
Shopping for Self-Storage Products and Services in a Google AgeIt's difficult to imagine a time when locating a product or service involved flipping through the Yellow Pages, calling information or perusing local storefronts. Thanks to search engines, it's now so simple to find the things you want or need that one has to wonder why a business like ours would continue to publish an annual Buyer's Guide; and yet our audience still calls for it. We're now collecting info for our 2013 guide, and we'd like your help in making it as valuable a resource as possible.
Explore the Wealth, Wit & Wisdom of Self-Storage TalkSelf-Storage Talk recently surpassed 6,000 members and 7,000 threads. If you're not yet a registered member, what's holding you back? The online community is an unrivaled knowledge base, and the website serves as a virtual mixer where self-storage managers, owners and vendors converge to network, seek advice, share knowledge and commiserate.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I too, am the owner of a BOGO Domino's card. I'm perfectly happy with mine though.
If you happen to read the card AND ask appropriate questions prior to ordering with the card, you will be politely informed by the employee that using the card means you get NO OTHER PRICE DEALS. That means you are paying the full menu price (check their web site and in-store menu prices), then get one of them free. So you could indeed be paying similar money for your pizzas using one of their other available deals.
I personally like to know exactly how much I'm going to pay every time before I pull open the door instead of rolling the dice on the deal of the day.

Skip to comments.Sarah Palin nominated for Razzie
Posted on 02/26/2012 3:15:30 PM PST by Mozilla
The former vice presidential candidate was nominated Saturday for a Golden Raspberry Award as worst actress for her performance in the documentary The Undefeated, a film about her political career.
The tongue-in-cheek Razzies, which purport to salute the worst in the world of movies each year, typically are presented the day before the Academy Awards but their schedule was shifted this year - the nominees were released Saturday and the winners (or losers, depending on how you look at it) are to be announced April 1.
Alaskas former governor, if she were to give this any thought at all, could take some comfort in being in good company; among her fellow nominees this year are such noted performers as Al Pacino (a supporting actor nod for Jack and Jill) and Nicolas Cage (worst actor for Drive Angry).
Palins fellow nominees in the worst actress category are Kristen Stewart (Breaking Dawn), Sarah Jessica Parker (both New Years Eve and I Dont Know How She Does It) and two men performing in drag, Martin Lawrence (Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son) and Adam Sandler, whose nomination for Jack and Jill, was one of a record 11 he received Saturday in various Razzie categories.
(Excerpt) Read more at politico.com ...
Really,,,,this silly, sophomoric "award" is an important thing to the mindless Left. You'd think they'd be embarrassed picking on Sarah Palin at a time when their icon, JFK, was again revealed as a disgusting piece of filth that never should have been elected to the presidency of this nation. Their runner-up hero is the cheating liar, Bill Clinton.
Democrats have no integrity, so they ridicule those who expose their own infantile fecklessness. One can evaluate the character of a person by the enemies he has.
You've nailed it. Great post.
I am sure she is hoping to stay Undefeated, so she has to win this.
It's the Alinsky way; and in this case, practiced by icky show people, most of whom are Obama's willing and obedient servants
meanwhile, they give an Oscar to the wooden Al Gore. Does anyone outside of leftists care about Oscars anymore?
Yes it is the leftists way to attack Palin's character, but it only makes her more powerful. Hollywood is controlled by people who have nothing in common with the majority of people in the country.
What liberals hate about Sarah Palin more then anything is not her political views, its the fact that she is HAPPY..Have you ever met a happy liberal, I haven't. They are miserable, and they can't stand the fact that Sarah is a happily married woman with a wonderful family who loves her very much. Libs just can't stand it. They hate Conservatism but they hate seeing a happy Conservative woman even more
She should go an accept it, win them over and make them secretly feel ashamed.
And the fact that she's really, really good looking also makes the leftists hate her, especially the women.
She was being herself, not pretending to be something else. That is a strange concept to the left.
I'm kind of lost, why nominate Mrs.Palin?
Shouldn't they have nominated the woman who
played her in the movie? Of course that
would make too much sense.
Oops, never mind.
I thought this was about the latest movie gamechange.
All you have to do to corrupt the press is to get a 4in1 printer at Staples for fifty bucks, buy a couple books of stamps, get another e-mail address, then set up an event with enough booze and fat food to satisfy their cravings for 24-hours, and you get something in the paper about like this report. They have to go, they can't survive in the manner they would prefer through honest effort. Small town folks, don't you all have a couple folks who have come back home for rehab or residential care whose resumes list important publications, but whose brains are fried. They are the ones who consistently bring up the most vacuous liberal socialist talking points, most discredited years ago, and get a few passes because they came from "good families" and got an education at a prestigious institution where they never learned s#!t from Shinola.
Alinsky says that "ridicule is our strongest weapon," but he is so far WRONG, I don't even know where to start. The strongest weapon we have is TRUTH. Pure and simple.
That would be cool if she gave an acceptance speech. Usually they go over very well for the accepter. I think Sandra Bullock gave an acceptance speech for both her Oscar and Razzie in the same weekend.
The real reason they hate Palin is because she is a conservative who has the charisma and power to convert more people into conservatives. That's in large part because she's a woman. It's vitally important to the left that they retain a monopoly on every demographic group who aren't white heterosexual males. The key to them retaining power is identity politics and using fearmongering against white heterosexual males to convert everyone else over to their side. When someone threatens to undermine the meme that all women and non-whites would be stupid not to be Democrats, that person has to be destroyed.
For someone who's 15 minutes of fame is supposedly over (and now irrelevant) she still seems to rattle lib hollywood's sensibility!
Did she write, produce, direct or star in the movie? If not, why is she being nominated?
The Razzies are run privately by an ad copyrighter. It's a totally unofficial gag award that Hollywood doesn't control.
Yes she does, doesn't she?
LOL, she also still seems to rattle the cage of certain posters at FreeRepublic!
They appear like clockwork on every posted Palin article, barking and salivating like Pavlov's dogs. Apparently trained to respond to just a mention of her name in the title.
Did someone say Palin?
everything is political for the left.
they want to control everything.
Hmm... that's very, very good.
Yes, I understand that, but if she didn't star in, write, produce or direct the film how can she be nominated for worst performance, IIRC Adam Sandler is up for multiple awards because he starred in and produced a couple of films. My understanding is they used clips of her, she wasn't actually on site filming her appearances. As you can see I don't watch the oscars or anything else related to hollywood be it emmys, tonys, oscars, or razzies!
Understood in that sense, ridicule is an ineffective tool against either falsehood or evil: one cannot tear down that which already stands low. Instead, mockery is employed to effect only against truth and virtue, in the service of reducing them, and for the benefit of those of lesser merit who wish to rise above them.
It's a gag...intended to raise publicity.
What films are you talking about?
When Natalie Wood was young, she was voted Worst Actress by - if I remember correctly - the Harvard Hasty Pudding Club. Natalie went and received it to cheers and applause. When Sarah has met her enemies - Bob Beckel and Alec Baldwin are examples - they ended up being charmed by her.
About the last 5 I watched, which is over the last couple of years, that I rented thinking because they were PG or sounded fairly decent that I would not be polluted watching them. The one thing they all seem to have in common was that they made sure people/a person at least, took the LORD's Name in vain. I really cannot tolerate that and usually just into the of the movie had to pull it out.
Right now I don't remember their names as it been a long time since I watched movies, other than a few put out by a Church, such as Courage. Since I ended up pulling them out so soon into them I have generally forgotten them. Also, come to think of it, I watched Blind Sided, which was a good movie from what I remember.
Many movies are actually propaganda, drawing us in with that which seems fairly good, but underneath they are vehicles of liberal propaganda, such as highly promoting the liberal "green movement". I don't think we need that either nor should support it.
I guess it depends on how fussy one is or discerning. When people watch many movies they probably become somewhat immune to much of the garbage in them.
If you ever run into a movie that isn't liberal propaganda, without fornication, adultery and/or homosexuality being championed as normal and good and without The LORD's Name taken in vain, being used lightly merely as an expression of speech or as a curse word and that movie is entertaining and enlightening please let me know. I like to watch a good movie every so often.
A drama is bound to have someone who isn't very admirable and behaves as such. You may like The Artist, the film which won the Best Picture Oscar last night, it's a fun show and a throwback.
Sarah Palin is a great American, and these people have no class.

"RE: D800 with DxO Optics Pro"
Well - this is just the point. DxO does in a couple of seconds what you have to do manually with LR in about 10 minutes, only the results would probably be not quite as good. Some things you just can't do, even if you are Mr. Adobe himself.To make my case - just look at the lower right hand corner. The otherwise excellent 24-70 shows some softness at the corners at 24mm. DxO takes this into account by sharpening the soft region of the lens more aggressively. Also, other flaws like lens distortions, CA and vignetting are automatically corrected.With a high res. camera like the D800 this type of corrections become even more important,especially if you don't have top quality lenses.

About 3-4 feet this morning on LI. Light offshores. It got fairly crowded but I was able to find a peak with just a few guys. Lots of really good waves. Atleast the best Iv had in awhile. Great day, waves plus my surfing was on point today. Been on cloud 9 since my first wave this morning
Only time will tell how tomorrow is going to be, supposed the be offshore in the 25-30 range I believe.
Jul 4, 2014, 09:03 PM #143
BassMon great to hear bro. I'm hoping for a similar sesh tomorrow. Today has been 0-fer round these parts. No punch or any size yet even though winds are great.

Anyone know why water temp would be down to 58-60 last few days after cracking 65 last week? I thought upwelling was short-term. These temps have been the last 5 days or so. Still trunked it with 2mm top for 2 hours last night easy because of the warm air but can't wait for 70F water. Any of this have anything to do with these fronts? When Arty arrives tonight will that bring Gulf Stream water?
I was up earlier than I had been in a long time for this one. It was a memorable Independence Day.
Screen Shot 2014-07-04 at 9.47.18 PM.jpg
It was really good, surfed OCMD from about 3pm-7:30pm.
Easily head high, caught an s-load of great rides.
All in all, hell of a 4th!

Long Beach,NY was about 3 - 3.5 clean, offshore winds... then around 5:30 or so it got slammed. Overhead to a few feet overhead waves were coming in like corduroy. Long period swell with the low tide, it jacked up.

I saw that can of long beach last night, it looked like it was just rifleing.
Paddled out again this morning, wind weren't as bad as they were originally forecasted thankfully. It was enough to stand the wave up a bit more, got some really really long great rides. Just a few of us regulars then after about an hour and a half the wind got a bit more west in it and the crowd came. It got some bump to it and the drift kept the summer pros away. Had a blast these past two days. Got so many waves, quality waves. I needed that. Happy as a god damn pig in doodie

Olt & Ramirez Ready to Rumble at RiverviewSubmitted by Arizona Phil on Fri, 06/12/2015 - 4:04pm
Ho-Young Son tripled, singled twice, stole two bases, scored three runs, and drove-in two more, Kevonte Mitchell belted a bases-loaded triple, singled, and walked, and Joey Martarano drilled a double and an RBI single and scored a run, helping the Eugene Emeralds thrash the Mesa Cubs 10-2 in Extended Spring Training intrasquad action this morning on Field #1 at Mesa CubTown at Riverview Park.
Neil Ramirez (on Cubs MLB 15-day DL - right shoulder inflammation) saw his first game action since April 16th, and Mike Olt (on Cubs MLB 60-day DL - fractured right wrist) saw his first game action since April 20th,
Getting the start for Eugene, Ramirez allowed singles to the first two men he faced (an infield single followed by a line-drive single to right) and then the runners pulled off a double-steal. Ramirez then struck out the next two hitters, one swinging and one looking. He threw 17 pitches (11 strikes), and was pulled from the game when he reached his pre-planned pitch limit.
Mike Olt played 3rd base for three innings for the Mesa Cubs and got four Plate Appearances, one in each of the first four innings. He struck out (swinging) on three pitches against Neil Ramirez in the top of the 1st, was called out on strikes on a 1-2 pitch in the 2nd, drew a walk and scored a run in the 3rd, and grounded out 6-3 in his fourth and final PA in the 4th (with the last three AB coming against LHP Jose Paulino). He did not handle any chances in the field.
Here is the abridged box score from today's game:

Conference Schedule for KDE Camp 2010
It's become tradition that KDE fans and developers meet twice a year to hold a sizable conference. This year's Camp KDE in San Diego begins in 10 days.
After the success of the European meetings, under the name Akademy, the KDE association has for the second time organized a conference oversees. Last year it was Jamaica, this year it takes place in Californian San Diego and will last from January 15 to 21. The opening weekend will see 3 days of talks and lectures with the conference closing on Wednesday/Thursday with each of the KDE groups holding BoF sittings and hacking sessions.
The detailed schedule can be viewed online at the Camp KDE homepage. Alongside keynotes from Philip Bourne on the subject of open data access, and Frank Karlitschek on KDE and the Cloud, many other interesting lectures on the KDE desktop in general, including development, also for beginners from Justin Kirby: Getting Involved as a Non-Developer, and Documentation by David Wonderly can be found on the agenda.

AbstractArtemisinins have become essential antimalarial drugs for increasingly widespread drug-resistant malaria strains. Although tremendous efforts have been devoted to decipher how this class of molecules works, their exact antimalarial mechanism is still an enigma. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain their actions, including alkylation of heme by carbon-centered free radicals, interference with proteins such as the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic calcium ATPase (SERCA), as well as damaging of normal mitochondrial functions. Besides artemisinins, other endoperoxides with various backbones have also been synthesized, some of which showed comparable or even higher antimalarial effects. It is noteworthy that among these artemisinin derivatives, some enantiomers displayed similar in vitro malaria killing efficacy. In this article, the proposed mechanisms of action of artemisinins are reviewed in light of medicinal chemistry findings characterized by efficacy-structure studies, with the hope of gaining more insight into how these potent drugs work.

This was my question. You did not answer it.
To: mlc9852
What if they say "God is the Creator of all life"
"I also believe in evolution"

This is what you purport to be a reply:
"To: From many - one.
Can you believe God created Adam and Eve as complete humans and also believe humans descended from an ape-like creature?

It's not a reply, just another comment unrelated to the question.
Since that's troll behavionr, we're done for today.
Non-response. See my prior post re trolls.
There are many times I think it's half baked.
"God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." (John 4:24 -- Christ speaking)
Notable physical/visible manifestations of God (called Theophanies):
Various physical, apparently man or angel-like appearances in Genesis, not well-described.
. . And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
He also appeared as a pillar of smoke/flame
Burning Bush
Appeared in the form of an angel
As a dis-embodied hand to a poor shmuck who thought it would be OK to have a dinner party with the Temple gold dishes (during Babylonian captivity).
Various times a "light" "smoke" and the like.
Basically, His "image" is beyond our understanding, and is, at least, tri-partite.
Jesus explained this bit to the Sadduces who were trying to trip him up on marriage question. (If a widow remarries, who would she be married to in Heaven. Christ's answer: No one -- it does not work that way in heaven; you'll be like angels, who apparently work by different rules.)
f. The view that living things in all the major kingdoms are modified descendants of a common ancestor (described in the pattern of a branching tree) has been challenged in recent years by:i. Discrepancies in the molecular evidence (e.g., differences in relatedness inferred from sequence studies of different proteins) previously thought to support that view.
ii. A fossil record that shows sudden bursts of increased complexity (the Cambrian Explosion), long periods of stasis and the absence of abundant transitional forms rather than steady gradual increases in complexity, and
iii. Studies that show animals follow different rather than identical early stages of embryological development.
Breathtaking. And this will pass for science in Kansas.
The sun might shine there, but if his head's buried?
How about a "spiritual" image?
Probably why "Thou shalt make no graven image"...to prevent just such nonsense as God looking like an old white male sitting on a cloud, or young ill favoured semitic male (I don't have time to track it but Jesus wasn't supposed to be pretty), or a handsome bearded young man looking skyward.
Not really. I know why most people in the US don't believe the ToE. They have fallen prey to unscrupulous snake oil salesmen that fill their heads with misinformation about the ToE.
"fill their heads with misinformation about the ToE."
Such as?
The Cambrian explosion wasn't unique?
Do you believe humans are nothing more than well-evolved apes?
The main thing I see is that the Author suffers from a Surplus of Capital letters.
I don't know about the unity thing. That is pretty well contrary to the Scripture.
For one, the Resurrection is expressly bodily -- now how bodily,
And of course, Jesus (who is a facet of God) was fully man, and that includes all the "joys" of being a human from Acid reflux to Zits.
Well the unity business is a Hindu thing, but "made in a spiritual image of God" seems to me that when we go to Heaven we become one with God. Sometimes the similarity of religious thought around the world starting from different precepts is quite interesting.
You want a design flaw? How about intractable pain, which serves no useful purpose but with no way to turn it down or off? Certainly not an example of good design there.
I've been considering a list of bad or at least non-ideal or non-intelligent designs. PH doesn't have such a list, or didn't a while back.
Think it's worthwhile to compile such a thing?
Sure--we're a mess! Knees, lower back...
You're forgetting, all the design flaws didn't happen until the Fall...
Also, aren't the flaws a result of degeneration into increased entropy as a result of the second law of thermodynamics?
THE COURT: Mr. Gillen, that is an interesting coincidence, but it was not by design. (Laughter and applause.) With that, I declare the trial portion of this extended case adjourned.
The most telling part of that incident does not appear in the transcript, but rather in news accounts of the incident. The "laughter and applause" reportedly lasted 15 seconds. That's an eternity in comedic terms. The judge's closing quip put a defining exclamation point on how silly the premise of the design argument is, and represented a knife through the heart of the defense's case.
Exactly. All the laws of nature are a divine gift except the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics - that's a punishment for talking to snakes.
No creationism to see here!

I just turned off a news program on the television. I usually want to hear what is going on in the world and what is being done about it. I also usually like to hear the words of our leaders, to either applaud or be concerned. But today, I just turned it all off. I will read about any news later. I will probably hear it rehashed several times again today, but right now I don't want to listen anymore.
Something else very important is going on that demands my interest. It may not continue very long and it is necessary that I become a part of the event.
The fields have blossomed almost overnight in my favorite bright yellow flowers that I call Spanish Blossoms. These abundant, miniature sunflowers spring up each autumn any place that has not been mowed recently. The country roads are lined with their cheerful welcoming nods in the wind. Pastures are outlined in yellow where the mower or animal appetites have not kept the plants from maturing. Even spots that have been mowed recently will have tiny yellow blossoms near the ground as the flower is determined to proclaim its presence.
I often feel that this flower has the power to charge me up for the winter soon to come. The sight of the bright fields gives my batteries the boost they will need to carry me over until the yellows of spring make their appearance in the daffodils and day lilies.
So, I must go outside today and leave the matters of the world to those who don't have this opportunity to be a part of a glorious yellow world. The sun is out, the temperature is pleasant and I must join the squirrels and birds that share my joy in the outdoors today.
Yesterday, I enjoyed being outside too, but I enjoyed it from the seat of a riding mower. Today I want to just sit and look, or at the most, walk leisurely where I can see more and more of the blossoms. While I am sitting I know I will have an opportunity to watch some of our big grass carp also leisurely moving around in our pond.
If I am lucky, the big blue heron will visit the pond as well and since I will be sitting quietly, he will not be disturbed by my presence and may even come near me.
One of my fond memories from childhood happened on a day I was home from school with some mild illness. My mother put me in a chair, in the sun, at the bottom of the back steps. I was wrapped in a blanket and was in her sight as she worked in the kitchen. The quiet neighborhood and the feel of the sun on my face after having been in bed for several days made me feel that everything was really great. I don't know how long my mother allowed me to bask in the sun, but the memory has warmed me for over 70 years.
That same warmth is waiting for me today. I won't need the blanket to keep me warm and I won't have a mother watching out the door for me, but I will have the millions of yellow Spanish Blossoms smiling at me. Along with that experience will be the memories of all the years I have been privileged to see such beauty.
It doesn't really matter what the news was. No matter how terrible it might have been, I know that today was a day to cherish. And I know that if I am around next fall when the Spanish Blossoms bloom, I will share a day with them again.

FILE - In this Oct. 17, 2012 file photo, a TV show called "La Comay," roughly translated to "The Godmother", is seen on a TV set in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This five-foot tall puppet with red lips, a shrill voice and a penchant for salacious details rules Puerto Rico's gossip circuit, with legions tuning into her show every afternoon ready for the latest bombshell. Joe Ramos, president of WAPA TV, told reporters late Thursday, Dec. 20, 2012 that the SuperXclusivo show will be taped two hours before it is broadcast. The announcement follows a recent outcry over comments that the controversial puppet made about a man who was brutally killed. (AP Photo/Ricardo Arduengo, File)

Durable mirrors!
By Jenniejane
from Flint, MI
Comments about Creativity Street Self Portrait Mirrors:
I love these mirrors. They are solid and sturdy and do not break easily even with constant use packing and moving in a classroom. The students love using them to draw self-portraits. Great mirrors!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Awesome self-portrait mirrors!
By Wildart
from Alabama
I had this same mirror at another school system and had them for 3 years... Eventually, kids who were curious, flexed the mirror so much that it broke in half.
Cracked on the bend
By ELP Julie
from Bellevue, WA
We used the product with preschoolers the same day we opened it and within minutes of putting them out one of them cracked at the bend. My teachers ended up making stands for them so that it wouldn't happen again. It was fairly disappointing as this mirror is described as a fairly preschool proof mirror. They work very well in the stands we have created.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
big expense for a class
By Robert, watercolor instructor
from Jacksonville, FL
I needed mirrors for self portraits in a painting class. Though these weren't the most expensive options available online, the single-faced mirrors (my preferred option) were out of stock. There is a bit of distortion in the upper and lower ends of the mirror and the mirrors are in a set position that is sometimes difficult for the user to position themselves for a selfie. Many of my students ended up using their iPads & iPhones to take selfies and work from that. The double side is great for large classes but in a watercolor class, students need extra table space and sitting across from one another is a bit impractical. My advice: Look into the smartphone count in your class or hold out until the single sided mirrors are back in stock.
Merchant response: Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear that the double-sided mirrors didn't work out for you. One of our Customer Care Agents will be reaching out to see how we can help you with this.
Good products and quick service.

Product seems fine, angle is correct, appear to be non breakable.
Mirrors not worth buying
By Ramay Art Tribe
from Fayetteville, Arkansas
The "mirror is no more than a shiny plastic film that easily comes off. Don't waste your funds on these. They are not as durable as ones that I have had previously. I purchased the double sided and was extremely disappointed.

Self portrait mirror
By jazzcat
from Santa Cruz, CA
I ordered one mirror to begin with because I wasn't sure what the quality would be. When I first opened it I was disappointed in the quality because it seemed very blurry and fuzzy. There is nothing to indicate that there is a protective covering over the whole mirror. Once I discovered that it had this covering and removed it, I was very pleased with the mirror. So happy with it that I have now ordered several more. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this mirror. I think it is a great buy.

We first met Mel C. as one of the Spice Girls. The Spice Girls became a hit selling over 40 million world wide. For the past five years, Melanie C has been Sporty Spice. She was one of the five girls who, together, would go on to become…more
On February 22nd 2009, Melanie gave birth to a baby girl named Scarlet Starr. Scarlet is the first child for Melanie and partner Thomas Starr. She is now the last of the five Spice Girls to have children.
On the 24th of March 2007, Mel has revealed that she would love to settle down and start a family with her boyfriend of 5 years, Tom Starr.
Mel C offers to support Take That for their forthcoming tour.
In May 2007, after years of rumours, Mel admitted she had a brief affair with Robbie Williams in the late 1990s.
Mel C was offered sperm over the internet. Members of 'Operation: Impregnate Mel C' set up a profile on Bebo where sperm donors can offer their "services". The group's mission statement reads: "Mel C is the last Spice Girl to experience the joys of motherhood. She was the most attractive and the most talented of the band and she deserves children as much as her band-mates. As she isn't ready to settle down with a man, we are offering to donate our sperm for her use. She can chose which member of 'O:IMC' she wants as the child's dad and doesn't have to let that member know." Mel declined the offer.
Her third solo album is "Beautiful Intentions" under her self-financed album Red Girl Records.
She has 10 tattoos.
In 2000, Mel C was #2 in the pop top 10 observer's annual rich list for the under-30s.
While each of the four Spice Girls have pursued solo projects, Mel has been the most successful, with her album Northern Star selling over a million copies.
She enjoyed having a solo career as well as being in the Spice Girls.
She is donating all profits from her solo album to the mental health charity Light in Dark.
One of her most memorable Christmas mornings was when she got a certain present from her dad when she was about three or four years old.
She was labeled Beefy Spice by tabloid newspapers.
She was prescribed drugs to fight the depression she suffered.
The singer says she alternated between starving herself and excessive exercise.
She has admitted suffering from depression, after developing an eating disorder.
(If any specie of insect colonized any part of her body) Melanie C. would pick lady bugs to colonize her feet.
"Reason" was her second album which was released in 2003.
She has her own independent label, Red Girl Records.
She currently resides in Wales, England, with boyfriend of 5 years Thomas Starr.
Toy Story (1995) is her favorite movie.
She is a fan of Liverpool Football Club.
She took ballet when she was younger.
She has 1 half-brother, Paul; 4 step-brothers, Jad, Stuart, Liam & Declan; and 1 step-sister, Emma.
Madonna and Stevie Wonder are her favorite singers.
She is 5'6"(1.68m) in height.
She has co-written eleven chart topping singles, and has released three solo albums.
She says if she ever meets Bruce Willis, she'll want to challenge him to arm-wrestling.
Mel is great friends with ex Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones, and he also played guitar on Melanie's first album Northern Star.
She dated J Brown from boyband 5ive.
Mel: We don't have punch-ups anymore, like we used to at 22, when there would be a few too many drinks and we'd all get overexcited. I never had any of them by the throat - but I wanted to!
Mel: I have never kissed a girl in a sexual way apart from jokingly with the Spice Girls. A few of them have swapped kisses. But that's as far as it went, as far as I know - when I was in the room anyway.
Mel: (on the reunion of The Spice Girls in 2007) This is our final farewell. We wanted an opportunity to get together to really celebrate everything we've achieved and give a great big thank you to our fans. We just want to make this the best pop show that a British band has ever put on.
Mel: (on the reformed Spice Girls ) Mel B isn't as scary as she used to be, she's definitely mellowed somewhat. But she's still very feisty. Ginger is a little bit lighter now, her hair is a little bit more golden. Baby's always going to be the baby, she's the youngest. And Victoria is very posh.
Mel: Lady Sovereign. That's what my brother and my mates call me. She kind of looks like Sporty Spice.
Mel: I'm not comparing myself to Robbie in any way, but I hope and pray that I wouldn't get depressed if my album didn't do well. I try really hard to get a balance in my life so that my career isn't the only thing in it.
Mel: I couldn't live there, or stand being followed as much as Victoria. I'm happy in England with my little trips to our place in Wales.
Mel: When you find yourself in that position your freedom goes. So I'm weighing it all up. My mum looks forward to having grandchildren.
Mel: Everyone is doing so well - Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton seem to be thriving on motherhood and pregnancy. Geri has chilled out and Emma is going to be a great mother.
Mel: A one-off show would be ideal, but we haven't had any offers yet.
Mel: We wouldn't want to reform like Take That - we can't make that kind of commitment at the moment. With the impending babies, family is priority in Spice World right now!
Mel: I'd love to support them. Take That used to be my guilty pleasure. I was a bit old to like them but did anyway.
Mel: (admitting she had an affair with Robbie Williams in the late 90s) I've turned down so many people on this question. It was ten f***ing years ago and I'm still talking about it! It was nothing serious but we went on a couple of dates and it didn't really work out. It was just a chemistry thing really, sometimes there's not a major reason. He was busy traveling all over the world and so was I. At the end of the day, you're never going to get Robbie to settle down are you? You're never going to tame that beast!
Mel C: In the beginning, being labeled "the plain one" did hurt, but everyone's got an opinion and you've just got to live with it.
Mel C: I have many more possibilities when working solo. I can put what I want to onto the record.
Mel C: I am still happy with the Spice Girls and cannot imagine myself without the others. But in a group you have to make compromises.
Mel C: Yes, I had problems but I am not ashamed of my depression.
Mel C: It is a bit weird as I am not lesbian myself.
Mel C: (When asked if what "girl power" means to her) A girl can play soccer too.

I spoke to the dealership on Sat. 10/13/12 to inform them of the problem. The General manager Pierry Yepez asked me to bring the car in so that he can do a diagnostic. I brought the car in on 10/16/12.
When I went to pick up my car that afternoon, they had closed the shop early. I went the following morning and they refused to give me my car unless I paid them $480.74 for repiars. These repairs were never authorized by me.
I called the police to make an official report. The police officer tried to have the GM Pierry Yepez compromise. He said no and that he wanted full payment for repairs that I did not authorize. I never even knew what the problem was that they had to fix until that morning. [continued below]....
This has got to be the worse experience I have ever had with a car place. How is it possible that they can keep my car hostage legally until I go to court? Unreal!!!
