So You Think You're A Superfan?
NPR Music's blog The Record currently has a series of radio and Web stories about fans supporting the musicians they love, called That's What Fans Are For. Last month, we asked you to send us photos of yourself with your favorite musician, and to tell us about the time you waited outside the club in the freezing rain for hours and finally got to — gasp — MEET THE BAND!
Well, the photos came flooding in, through Flickr and Twitter and Facebook, and we found some gems. Specifically, we found an oddly disproportionate number of Def Leppard fan pics, and discovered that you probably don't "wanna fall in love" with Chris Isaak because you'll have a lot of competition. From Kelly Maddy's ballroom dancing moment with Henry Rollins to Amber Avalon getting Bret Michaels to autograph her shoulder — which she later tattooed on — here are a few of your stories:
Hide caption"Rick Allen of Def Leppard and me, on Aug. 4, 1984 in Portland, Ore., after my friend and I waited six hours to meet the band. I was completely psyched and acted like a giddy fool. He signed my super cool union jack shirt with a purple felt pen (days before sharpies!) and I've never washed it (and still have it) so it has serious ring around the collar and pits!! Haha." (Courtesy of Rebecca Boyer)NOTE: Captions accompanying the photos in this presentation have been edited for clarity and space.
Hide caption"As a MAJOR Chris Isaak fan, I go to as many concerts as I can, as far back as the 1993 Canadian Exhibition in Toronto. I had been a fan for years but had never seen him live. After the show, he came out and met everyone, signed programs, and had a photo taken with me. It's been on my piano ever since. Since then, I have traveled all over North America to see him. I have so many signed T-shirts and hoodies that I can't wear them all, and I carry my signed Chris Isaak tote bags everywhere. His music is worth it so I give it all the support I can."Courtesy of Janice Holden
Hide caption"This is me and my two best friends with Brandon Boyd of Incubus back in about 1999 or 2000. We were in high school and had driven five hours to their show in St. Louis. We were in line for hours so we could get a good spot. Then, the whole band came out to talk to the fans! We were speechless and nearly in tears. You can't see, but I was grabbing Brandon Boyd's arm SO HARD. I'm sure he thought I was a creep!"Courtesy of Brandi Rinks
Hide caption"Henry Rollins has to be the kindest, most considerate celebrity in existence. He meets and speaks with every fan who waits for him outside his tour bus after every show. This was my third time meeting him, after a show in Charlotte, N.C., on Sept. 28, 2007, and I already had two photos where we just stood there smiling. This time, I suggested he dip me. 'Like, ballroom dancing? YES. Let's do this.' With that, he grabbed me around my waist and dipped me like a seasoned pro! One of the best moments of my life."Courtesy of Kelly Maddy
Hide caption"Mavis Staples performed on Martin Luther King Day, 2010 at Ram's Head Live in Annapolis. I couldn't resist thanking her after the show. She has one of the most incredible voices of all time and I feel honored to have heard it in person. She told me I made her feel good because she was 'finally taller then someone,' and was as nice as humanly imaginable."Courtesy of Jayne Levinson
Hide caption"It was the first time I ever met any of the guys from Barenaked Ladies, at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix, Dec. 2, 2006. When I gave Ed Robertson a letter thanking him for all the ways the band inspired me to change my life — including losing 80 pounds for their first Ships and Dip BNL cruise in 2007 — he thanked me and moved along to chat with other fans. But after reading the letter on the tour bus, he actually came back out to find me, give me a hug, and thank me for saying exactly what he needed to hear. He's been just as kind to me ever since!"Courtesy of Kristen Gregory
Hide caption"My friend, Kim; Aaron Behrens of Ghostland Observatory, and me after a concert in Houston. Kim and I both have braided pigtails in our hair just like Aaron."Courtesy of Emily Anfinson
Hide caption"In 1977, when I was 16, my friend and I won a contest on a local St. Louis radio station, to Find the Queen's Crown. We found it and had a limo ride, third-row seats and dinner with the band and their entourage. It was pretty awesome. Chatted with Brian May for most of the dinner. Unforgettable night! Inspired me to play music, and I still play in a band every weekend here in Charleston, S.C."Courtesy of Fiona Phillips
Hide caption"Although, sadly, I was born too late to ever have seen the Ramones live, they are one of my favorites. The first time I ever used a fake ID was to sneak into a club where Marky Ramone was doing a DJ set. I was 19, and the ID said that I was 24, 5 inches taller, that I had green eyes instead of brown, and that I was a few sizes smaller than my kind, older friend. Somehow, miraculously, it worked. That night I got to meet Marky Ramone, and the next time he was in town, he let me into the DJ booth and shared a bottle of wine with me. (We drank out of the bottle, of course.)"Courtesy of Sarah Ventre
Hide caption"Scissor Sisters' Ana Matronic. My favorite lady of all time! Kendra told her she was my idol and she was like, 'Awww! Give me a hug!' Then, we made fun of girls in fishnets and high heels. Chances are, if you own my heart, I get my crooked smile on like this."Courtesy of Hayley Gilmore
Hide caption"Morrissey and me, behind a record store in Austin, Texas, in 1992 while I was in college. I was a huge Morrissey fan; it was like meeting a god. Sounds sort of melodramatic now but that is really how it felt then, when I was 18. Come to think of it, I would probably feel the same today. Morrissey kept my marker!!!!"Courtesy of Jasmine DeFoore
Hide caption"Bret Michaels of Poison. Ohhh my boy! I am the biggest Bret Michaels fan ever, and have his signature tattooed on my shoulder.I traveled in a blizzard to Wendover, Nev., hung around his bus outside in the freezing weather, schmoozed my way into getting to know his crew and now have a backstage pass for life tattooed on my shoulder! I Love Poison and Bret!"Courtesy of Amber Avalon

Hide caption"One of my favorite bands, Hoots & Hellmouth, just came through Indianapolis in February. I happened upon them at a random show in 2009; they needed a place to stay and I volunteered ... for four total strangers. One and a half years later, we greeted each other at the night's venue like old friends — bear hugs, beers and nonstop chatter. I knew nearly half the audience that night, thanks to my musical evangelism, and a good number were on their feet dancing through the entire set."Courtesy of Natalie Ingle
Hide caption"I met Fiona Apple on April 20, 2000, in Atlanta. Best. Day. Ever."Courtesy of Sarah Thompson
Hide caption"Imogen Heap at the Fillmore in Miami Beach, Jun. 2, 2010. A group of 30 people and I waited outside the venue for about three hours. She was incredibly gracious and good-natured, signing everyone's posters and taking pictures with each of us. LOVE HER!"Courtesy of Jessica Alexandre
Hide caption"1996. So this is me, on the right; my best friend, Amanda, on the left; and Chris Robinson of my absolute FAVORITE band EVER: The Black Crowes!!!"Courtesy of ufteacher via Flickr
Hide caption"Def Leppard has been my favorite band since 1983, when I first heard 'Photograph' on the radio. I was 16. I met Joe Elliott and the rest of the band in a hotel lobby in West Lafayette, Ind., in January 2000. A group of us fans met online and organized a get-together. Def Leppard's tour manager arranged for us to meet them in the hotel lobby as they were leaving for the show. All of the guys were great — very friendly and patient with us, signing autographs and posing for pictures. Joe was sick that day, but he was still very gracious and funny."Courtesy of Janet Crum
Hide caption"Snuggling with Chris Isaak after the show on Dec. 7, 2010! Swoon!!! I can't imagine why, but he seemed to take a shine to me both during and after the show (which was fantastic... and I'd been waiting to see him live for over 20 years, since I was in high school). I knew he's known to flirt with ladies in the audience, but I never expected to be singled out more than once. A friend told me he was only being nice and doing his job, but I like to think he really DID like me for some reason, although I can't imagine why, out of so many others. I love him more than ever now — after meeting him, I can tell he's the real deal, and truly a great guy."Courtesy of Honore Ervin

Pak Unaware of Modi-Sharif Meeting in New York: Foreign Office
By PTI
Published: 05th September 2014 12:34 AM
Last Updated: 05th September 2014 12:34 AM
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan today said it was not aware of any plans for a meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif in New York during this month's UN General Assembly session.
"As regards a meeting (Modi-Sharif) in New York, I am not aware of any such plan as yet," Foreign Office spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam said.
Media reports had earlier suggested that the two prime ministers could meet during the event, after talks between foreign secretaries of the two nations scheduled for August 25 was called off by India.
The foreign secretary-level meet was cancelled after Pakistan High Commissioner to India Abdul Basit had "consultative" meetings with separatist Kashmiri leaders.
Prime Minister Modi is expected to reach New York on September 26 and will address the UN General Assembly the next day. Meanwhile, the foreign office spokesperson said no fresh dates for the foreign secretary-level talks were under consideration.
Aslam told media at a regular briefing that no new dates were being discussed. "I would not like to speculate on how Pak-India dialogue process would go forward. We have very clearly spelt out our position on the cancellation of the FS level talks on untenable grounds," she said.
To a question that Al-Qaida has opened a new organisation for the Indian sub-continent, Aslam said, "I have no comments as I do not have any information about this particular media report."
She said Pakistan has taken a very resolute action against Al-Qaida and its remnants and its military operation against terrorists was in progress.
In June, Pakistan launched the long-awaited military assault in the North Waziristan tribal region, considered a stronghold of Taliban and other militants, to avowedly flush out insurgents and regain full control of the district.

"Certainly our platform states that the party is committed to ensuring that there is traditional marriage," he said, but he didn't think the party should take a position on state initiatives.

Murder charge dismissed against Vt. grandmotherAugust 18,2013State dismisses
murder charge
HYDE PARK A Vermont judge has dismissed a murder charge against a Morrisville grandmother found mentally incompetent to stand trial on charges of giving a fatal drug overdose to her infant grandson.
The judge has ruled that Pamela Raymond, 56, does not need to be hospitalized and can be treated in the community.
Raymond, a former nurse, pleaded innocent to second-degree murder in the 2010 death of her 3-month-old grandson. Prosecutors say the child was given a lethal dose of an antidepressant to keep him quiet so he would not bother Raymonds husband in September 2010.
Deputy States Attorney Christopher Moll said the state may file the charge again if it deems Raymond competent to stand trial.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON A Sandgate man with a previous conviction for a sex crime against a child in New...

text: Hi, seems like a simple problem and hopefully simple solution but I've looked around and can't figure it out. I've uploaded several 800x1035 images but oQey keeps crunching them down unwantedly. I've increased the gallery size in settings. Is this a multi-site support issue? It works fine on the other site I have it installed but that gallery is a bit smaller (and yes I tried increasing it). Any ideas?

At NASA Langley Research Center, I am involved in the Comprehensive Digital Transformation, which is an initiative focused on developing and implementing innovative data analytics and machine intelligence solutions for complex problems in Langley's aerospace domain. Our work is centered on two key areas:
Intensive Scientific Discovery: Automated mining of images, experimental data, and computational data that will help NASA scientists derive new insights and make new discoveries. The tools we develop in this area incorporate the underlying physics into the machine learning algorithms.
Content Analytics: Knowledge mining of scientific literature, web content, and multimedia sources that will allow NASA researchers to quickly analyze vast collections of information in order to answer specific questions. The tools in this area rely
on natural language processing and IBM Watson technologies.
The overall goal of our work is to provide NASA scientists with new tools that will lead to greater scientific discoveries and system design optimizations. While I am involved with several different project across the two key areas, the primary focus of my research is on the
detection and prediction of aeroelastic flutter from wind tunnel test data.
This talk will present several examples of the kinds of problems a mathematician can encounter at NIST. They illustrate the breadth of applications mathematical ideas.
Abstract: In a model of network communication based on a random walk in an undirected graph, what subset of nodes (of some fixed size), enable the fastest spread of information? The dynamics of spread is described by a process dual to the movement from informed
to uninformed nodes. In this setting, an optimal set A minimizes the sum of the expected first hitting times (F(A)), of random walks that start at nodes outside the set. Identifying such a set is a problem in combinatorial optimization that is probably NP hard. Fortunately, F has been
shown to be a supermodular and non-increasing set function.
In this talk, the problem is reformulated so that the search for solutions to optimization problem is restricted to a class of optimal and "near" optimal subsets of the graph. We will discuss our approach to the approximation and solution of this problem based on properties of the underlying graph.

First, I had intended to go Pro and posted 2 support forum tickets on your site. Both seem to have been eaten probably by Akismet.
It relates to dealing with bbpress and how this plugin doesn't handle those forums at all except for the nonfunctional URI method which plainly doesn't work.
I supplied a possible workaround that is used by another membership plugin.
Can I get some update please?

Down, Down, Down sheet music for Treble Clef Instrument
Down, Down, Down
Down, Down, Down
With your kind attention a song I will trill,
All ye who must toil with the pick and the drill,
And sweat for your bread in that hole at Oak Hill,
That goes down, down, down.
"When I was a boy," said my daddy to me,
"Stay out of Oak Hill, take my warnin'," said he,
Or with dust you'll be choked and a pauper you'll be,
Broken down, down, down."
But I went to Oak Hill and I asked for a job,
A mule for to drive or a gangway to rob;
The boss said, "Come out, Bill, and follow the mob
That goes down, down, down."
The lampman he squints through the windie at me,
"What's your name? What's your age? What's your number?" says he
"Bill Keating; I'm thirty; my check's twenty-three;
Mark that down, down, down."
I asked them what tools would I need in the place.
"Very few," said the boss with a grin on his face;
"One number six shovel and darn little space
While you're down, down, down."
With a note from the boss to the shaft I made haste,
Saluted the topman, in line took my place;
Sayin', "Gimme a cage, for I've no time to waste,
Let me down, down, down."
"All aboard for the bottom !" the topman did yell;
We stepped on the cage, and he gave her the bell.
Then from under our feet like a bat out of --- well,
We went down, down, down.
I groped in the gangway; they gave me a scoop.
The "out" was just fired, muck was heaped to the roof.
I stooped and I scooped till my back looped the loop,
Stoopin' down, down, down."
You could look at the rib or the face or the top,
Ne'er a sign of a laggin' or slab or of prop;
Some day I expect that old mountain to drop _
And come down, down, down.
Last pay day my buddy he cussed and he swore,
In fact it's enough to make any man sore,
When your wife drags your wages all out in the store,
While you're down, down, down.
From Pennsylvania Folksongs and Ballads, Korson

Lol, had that happen in either Saints Row 1 or 2 (I think 2, but I played both around the same time.) Some chick got her head stuck in a metal diamond patterned gate. I would run into it and it would stretch out. Finally pushed it far back and it was stretched out like 10-12 feet in game.
As for me on The Third, nothing major. Random nitro boosts left on the street. Got some photos of them coming out of my guy's buttcheeks.
A rocket from the launcher left in my hand after I switched weapons. I messed around with this one for a bit just curious. Firing weapons (even the rocket) didn't fix it. Neither did changing/buying clothes/going naked. I finally saved and reloaded and it left.
Motorcycles front wheels sticking in the ground... mainly the Estrada. I think once with the Sandstorm.
Fully upgraded the Decker crib and fell through the top from an aircraft. Got stuck inside. Luckily it was right after a mission, so I reloaded.
Only one that's bothered me is the garage. I have a decent bit of vehicles in there and it likes to freeze/lock up. I pretty much just jack whatever I want now.
Oh, and one from co-op. He was redoing his character in Image As Designed, so I was out pissing off gangs. A luchador ended up stuck in place running. I took some photos and everytime I'd come out of the photo, he'd fly backward (like a split second moonwalk) maybe 5-10 feet, then rush forward and keep running in place. Finally killed him and walked toward the building. A minivan was stuck doing the samething, only a little less noticably due to the size ofthe vehicle and the distance being the same. Took photos and the same thing. I finally shot her in the face.

Dog and cheetah enjoy their first snowstorm
In case you're needing to see some sort of silver lining behind those snow clouds that socked the eastern seaboard and paralyzed the northeast this weekend, we offer this.
Kago and Kumbali — a dog and cheetah who have become best friends at the Metro Richmond Zoo — got to play in the snow for the first time during winter storm Jonas.
The zoo was closed Saturday, but a zookeeper let the popular duo run and play in the 7-inch deep snow in a large fenced field.
Kumbali was two weeks old when caretakers at the zoo noticed he was losing weight. The runt of a litter born to zoo cheetahs Khari (the mom) and Hatari (the dad), Kumbali was bottle fed and grew healthier, but having been removed from his litter he needed some companionship.
So the zoo got him a dog.
Kago, a 10-week old Lab mix, had been pulled from a high kill shelter in Alabama by The Art of Paws, an animal rescue group in Florida.
Zoo officials report the two have become inseparable.
Kumbali and Kago can be seen at the zoo Monday to Thursday from 12 to 1 p.m., and on Friday and Saturday from 12 to 1 p.m. and 3 to 4 p.m. And you can find their full story here.
Here's a look at their first meeting, and their younger (snowless) days:

Why you won't be seeing the Kardashians on dog sleds this season
When a front woman for the Kardashians emailed the owner of a dog sled adventure company in Montana, asking him to arrange a half-day trip for Khloe, Kim and eight other cast members — all while being filmed by 20 or so crew members — he quoted a price.
It would be $390 per sledder, or $3,900 total, Jason Matthews, the owner of Bozeman-based Yellowstone Dog Sled Adventures, told her in an email.
Ashley Warner, the production release coordinator for "Keeeping Up with the Kardashians," emailed back, suggesting — rather than cash — "an exposure trade out." The publicity Matthews' company would receive being on the reality show was worth at least that much, she told him.
Matthews responded to her email saying, in effect, that kind of math didn't fly in Montana, and requesting payment in advance.
The email exchange continued after that, with the Kardashian representative continuing to talk about a "trade" and explaining the value of "exposure" and Matthews — who has never seen the show — insisting on payment in the form of currency he was familiar with.
At one point, when his message seemed to not be getting through, he made a comment reflecting his own reality: "Look," he wrote, " my dogs don't eat trade."
The discussion continued until he was sent a confidentiality agreement. He declined to fill it out, saying "I'm not going to sign this until you agree to pay my rate.'"
Warner stopped emailing after that, and Matthews assumed the Kardashian sled ride was off.
On Sunday, Matthews heard the Kardashians had been in a car accident near Bozeman on Saturday. Their car slid off a road and into a ditch. No one was injured and no citations were issued. But it was still very dramatic, Khloe said the next day, when she was interviewed at the Oscars.
"We were in Montana, hit some black ice, car spun out of control, like a big rig got ice all over our car … It was really scary … but we're all good, all safe, thank God."
The Kardashians, while they didn't get their dog sled adventure, did get some skiing in while visiting Montana.
Matthews, after learning of their misfortune — and that no one was injured — got on Facebook and wrote a post titled "Montana Karmic Justice." explaining his experience with the family's representatives, LastBestNews.com reported.
In it, he said he didn't feel the $3,900 fee he was going to charge was exorbitant, considering that — at least according to what he read on the Internet — the family is being paid $60 million this season. He said he was glad they never showed up.
His Facebook post was shared widely, bringing him and his company some major (you guessed it) exposure — all while steering clear of the Kardashians.
And you can't put a price on that.

Dog poop: Do I need to draw you a picture?
"All Over Albany" has noticed that dog poop is, well, all over Albany — and they've fashioned a helpful flow chart to help address the (fecal) matter.
(Click on the illegible version above to be taken to the full size chart. Then come back, for this isn't just an upstate New York issue, but a national, nay, global one.)
At my park in Baltimore, and probably your's, it seems that, when the snow and cold arrive, the manners of some otherwise responsible dog owners depart.
Whether it's because people don't want to traipse throught the snow to scoop it up, or because it's just so darned cold, there are a lot more lingering dog droppings to be seen, and stepped in.
In a perfect world, those not scooping would be the ones stepping in it — but it never seems to work out that way.
And while, granted, solidly frozen poopage won't despoil your footwear, neglected droppings, amid continued freeze and thaw, can come back to haunt us.
"We've thought a lot about this issue," Alloveralbany.com reported in a piece last month. "And we finally came to the conclusion that winter somehow impairs the ability of some people to make good decisions about whether they should pick up their dog's poop.
"So, we're here to help. We've constructed a flow chart to assist citizens of the Capital Region in their decision-making process on the all important question: 'It's winter. My dog has pooped. What now?'"

Back in Baltimore, looking for a home
The past week has been a hectic one, mostly spent avoiding snowstorms, seeking out landlines for radio interviews and, just when we thought our traveling was done, traveling some more.
No sooner were Ace and I back in Baltimore than we left again — this time back to North Carolina for my mother's 85th birthday celebration.
Now we're back again, just in time for a snowstorm — that's the ohmidogmobile at the bottom right of the picture — seeking a place to squat for a month or so while we ponder our long terms plans.
Step one is to visit my storage unit to try and find some winter clothes.
We packed for a three-month summer trip. It turned into a seven-month one that didn't wind up — and in a way still hasn't — until January was upon us.
Living out of one's car — convenient as it is in some ways — is a pain in the butt in others. I can easily locate most things I need in the course of a day, but when it comes to things that I only sometimes need, and are thus buried deeper, it's nearly hopeless, requiring a good bit of unpacking and repacking.
It will be nice to have that chaos straightened out. And Ace, though he has said he enjoys the constant traveling — 22,000 miles of which we've done since May — is, in my interpretation, ready for a return to something resembling a routine.
Back from North Carolina, we lodged one night at the home of his godmother, and we're freeloading for two nights at the home of my teacher friends.
Our goal is to find someplace dirt cheap to stay for a month or two before we wear out our welcomes. I have not been focusing on it as I should, and I think, deep down, it might be because I don't want to return to the routine.
I want a bed, and a refrigerator, and a TV and heat. I want a big table on which to spread things out. But part of me hesitates to get back into that situation of paying all those bills every month — rent, utilities, Internet, cable, telephone, and all those other things I've come to see as sucking away not just my money, but my freedom.
Then, too, promoting my new book "Dog, Inc.: The Inside Story of Cloning Man's Best Friend" — is also taking up a lot of time, most of it spent searching for landlines to borrow for radio interviews.
Speaking of the book, which has been out about 10 days now, it has been having some pretty nice things happen to it.
It got nice mentions in Mother Jones and Real Simple magazines, and was chosen by Parade magazine as a "Parade Pick." This week, it was named one of January's "Mover and Shakers" by Goodreads.com, where it has also gotten some good reviews from the public.
Thanks, public.

Badlands? Or cream puffs?
The Badlands? They weren't so bad. In fact, thanks to a premature winter blast that left them lightly dusted with snow, they looked more like cream puffs when Ace and I passed through Thursday, making it as far as Beach, North Dakota.
Finally freed from Fargo, we whizzed from one end of the state to the other, eventually passing through the terrain that the Lakota tribe named "Mako Sica," which means "land bad."
Forbidding as it sounds, the pockmarked terrain looked more like a bakery shop, as if powdered sugar had been sifted from above, turning buttes into bundt cakes and craggy pinnacles into cream puffs.
We whizzed from on end of the state to the other, sticking to I-94 and stopping only for coffee, gas, bodily functions and to take a picture of Salem Sue, the world's largest cow.
On a mountain top in New Salem, whose high school sports teams are named the Holsteins, Sue, who was erected in 1974 to honor the area's dairymen, overlooks the interstate and is visible from miles away.
Tourists can drive up the mountain's gravel road and, should they so choose, drop a donation into a milk can. They help pay for her maintenance — and a 38-foot-high, 50-foot-long, six ton fiberglass cow does need maintenance now and then.
I-94 also sports what are touted as the world's largest metal sculptures, created by artist Gary Greff. Greff, a former school teacher, started fashioning as a way to bring people into the small community of Regent, home base of The Enchanted Highway.
The Enchanted Highway is about 20 miles east of Dickinson, North Dakota, and runs along I-94 for for 32 miles, with the sculptures, including "Geese in Flight," spread out along the way.
Of course, North Dakota's landscape is art in itself — both before and after harvest. In late summer, there are fields of sunflowers blooming for miles. By then end of October, only their dark brown stalks remain, curled up and shriveled.
Hay bales dot the roadsides, boxy ones and coiled ones, stacked sometimes higher than houses. On this day, they too were sugar frosted — looking like they belonged in a really big cereal bowl. Just add a little of Sue's milk, and breakfast could be served.
We didn't pass through any heavy accumulations of snow — mostly, despite predictions of a blizzard, just a light dusting, but it was enough to draw Ace's attention. Usually, he only bothers to look out the window when he feels the car slow down. On this 300-plus mile leg of the trip, he spent a long time looking at the scenery, and when we made a pit stop, he was eager to traipse through the snow that was left.
We didn't stop and camp in the Badlands, as John Steinbeck wrote that he did in "Travels with Charley." In the book, Steinbeck described how the "unearthly" landscape lost its "burned and dreadful look" as the sun went down, and took on a glow; and of how, in the night, "far from being frightful, (it) was lovely beyond thought …
"In the night the Bad Lands had become Good Lands. I can't explain it. that's how it was."
I too didn't think the Badlands lived up to their ominous name, probably because of the light snow-coating. Instead they left me with the song "Candy Man," stuck in my head, and with a strong urge for some bundt cake.

Flinging French fries in Fargo
There are things to do in Fargo, North Dakota.
There's the Celebrity Walk of Fame at the Fargo-Moorhead Convention and Visitors Bureau, where Garth Brooks, Neil Diamond, Debbie Reynolds, Jesse Ventura and others have left their signatures, handprints and footprints in cement.
There's the Plains Art Museum, the Fargo Air Museum, the Red River Zoo, and just across the way from my motel, a big mall.
Yes — despite the stereotype of it as a place where boredom reigns, where temperatures lean toward the bitter extremes (and we won't even go into woodchippers) — there are things to do in Fargo.
We're just not doing any of them. Instead, we're holed up in a Motel 6, where I'm flinging french fries into Ace's mouth.
Why? Because it's so damn cold.
Just as John Steinbeck, on his trip west with Charley, worried about getting across the northern states before winter set in, we're beginning to fret as well; only we have ample reason — predictions of a October blizzard.
All night long, the wind rattled the windows of my motel room. The three-to-five inches of snow the local weatherman predicted hasn't fallen — at least not here, not yet — but the warnings were enough to get me to book another night.
Just walking to the Burger King next door yesterday was bone chilling. Ace thought so, too. As eager as he was to get outside, he was even more eager — once experiencing it — to get back in.
Back in the room, for entertainment, I set aside half of my French fries and, in what's become a habit during our travels when I get fast food, tossed portions to Ace. He gets the discolored ones, and the pointy ended ones. For some reason, I don't like my fries to have pointy ends. Though he was on the bed, four feet away, he missed but one fry, snagging each of the rest with a snort.
So far I haven't seen much of Fargo, and that which I have has been through fast-flapping windshield wipers. The night I arrived, after checking in, I went off in search of downtown Fargo. On my only other trip here, three years ago, I didn't explore at all. I did, during a stop for lunch, ask a waiter where downtown was, and he informed me there was no downtown. Maybe he was new here, or it was his way of saying Fargo's downtown didn't meet with his standards. Maybe he was having fun with tourists.
But I can report there is a downtown, and that the road to it, at least from my motel, is lined with pawn shops. Once there, I couldn't see much, because it was so dark and rainy, but I sensed tall buildings.
It has remained grey since then. That alone normally wouldn't keep me inside, but the wind is downright cruel, and the rain is a stinging one and the one time I did go out in the car — to buy dog food — my car door, powered by the wind, attacked me both when I got out and when I got back in.
Even the wildlife thinks it's too cold. Tonight, when I went downstairs for ice, I saw a rabbit huddled between a trash can and the wall by the motel's side door, seeking shelter from the wind and rain.
I was going to offer to share my room with him — invite him up for a discolored French fry, maybe suggest he consider relocating to warmer climes — but he ran off when I approached the door.

When yellow Labs hit the slopes
Sure we had way too much snow this winter — though these two probably wouldn't think so.
Here's how yellow Labs keep their coats clean and have big fun at the same time.

Hey mates!
I searched in this forum for help with the Pinboard theme and seems that many people have problems to center the header image of this theme.
this is the site I am currently working on:
I tried:
#site-title img {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
like pail.a.cunn described in this thread: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/center-header-image-6
however this does not work... and if I set the margins on 50% it does not center in the middle and also does not float with the rest of the theme.
Any other suggestions?

I would like to display partial posts (with pictures) on the main page, the lists of posts on category pages, and similar pages displaying lists of posts. I tried using the excerpts, but they are shorter than I would like and don't display any images. I used to use a theme that automatically gave me excerpts with pictures and never used the more link on any of the posts, so I would like a solution that would work without using the more link.
How do I go about truncating the posts displayed or enhancing the excerpts to get the desired result?

Corporate Advocacy Program™
My order was placed on 9/16 and my books were clearly received by the company and shown on my account as fitting the quality standards "line received". The policy is 4-6 weeks for payment after receiving the books. I also chose the direct deposit option so that I did not have to wait for a check to be sent out. In most normal businesses, this would indicate an even quicker receipt of the money, as there would be no mailing delays incurred.
I waited my 6 weeks and did not receive payment, I looked the company up on RipOffReport.com and saw that there were claims on there with people noting they have yet to receive payment and this was months and months ago. I sent Ecampus an email letting them be quite aware of my frustrations, and I insured them that I would file complaints if I did not receive my money by the following wed. (11/6). The next day I received a simple email stating, "sorry for the delay, your check will be sent out and you will be notified when this occurs" this is not verbatim.. but you get the idea.
I emailed Ecampus once again, as they said they would send me a CHECK when I clearly opted for direct deposit. So now I have to wait more time for a check to be mailed to me. Another week goes by and surprise surprise, no check or deposit. I am not very happy, and I send another email. I hate to say it but they do start to become mean emails. This time I do not receive an email, even when I made it clear that I was unhappy and I would be sure to notify the dean at my school of their illegitimate business practices.
My dean refers me to the head of the library (Roger Getz) and he contacts Ecampus. I receive another email saying that I should receive a check in 3-5 days. You can imagine my thoughts and emotions at this time. The head of the library tells me to wait patiently, I wait.. not so patiently, but I wait. 3-5 days go by, and to no avail.. still no check! This time I notify the head of the library how how truley unhappy I am. I also make sure to call Ecampus on phone this time. I spoke to a Bernice.. and she notified me that my name has just been added to a list for my check to sent out, and I made her quite aware that this is about the 3rd time I heard this string of lies from this horrible company!
She takes my cell phone number and tells me that she will call me back as soon as its positive that my check is sent out. I never received a phone call. This past Monday I called again and they told me the same line of nonsense, "sorry about all of this maam, your check has JUST been added to the list yesterday and you should receive it with in the week" How many times do I have to call a company, for money, that I will probably never receive.
I'm sure that they have already sold my very good quality used books to another student for triple of what I was "supposed" to have received. In my eyes, this company stole my property and is basically refusing to give me my money. It is the same as someone breaking into my house/car and stealing it right out from underneath me. This is NOT the way ANY company should run their business.
