Congress must stop war on coal
July 3, 2013
Time is short for members of Congress to do the right thing for tens of millions of Americans, as President Barack Obama's decision to pull out all the stops on his war against coal makes clear....
To a liberal..........Ignornance is bliss. LOL.

Sol- I am saying that the AEP news release shows that they are rebuilding infrastructure not b/c of plant closures, but b/c of its age. Thus in my estimate, the IM is being intellectually dishonest by trying to make the war on coal tie.
Tru- What lies? I am using AEP's own words to make the points. See these articles for verification: **** s://ww w.appalachianpower.c om/info/news/viewRelease.asp x?releaseID=1419 and htt p://ww w.nationaljournal.co m/daily/power-compan y-contradicts-itself-on-epa-rules-20110615

That is why when a screaming, red-faced, vein-popping, stubborn, ignorant, tantrum squirming leftwing nut starts lying.....everyone around them completely shuts them out and stops listening.

To attempt to link the AEP News Release to Obama's 'war on coal' is the most disingenuous thing spoken yet by the IM 'editorial' board. I am not surprised however, it is really an anti-Obama tirade sent down from Ogden HQ.
The company (AEP) is replacing equipment installed in the 1920's-40's. Maybe after 70-90 years, it is time for an equipment upgrade no? "In most cases the existing 138 kilovolt (kV) facilities that were built in the 1920s-1940s will be replaced with 138 kV lines and somewhat taller and of heavier structures that can carry more current." AEP News Release
Also, AEP thinks this, similar to the shuttering of the old plants, is good for the company. "These upgrades not only meet the immediate need to strengthen the grid, but position the region well for growth in the future." Charles Patton, AEP Pres. and COO. "On balance, we think that is the appropriate way to go," ex-CEO Mike Morris said of the closures on June 1, 2011.
So please, stop the hyperbolic pan

The decision to overlook Aaron Cook, the world number one taekwondo player, for the London Olympics will not be challenged by the world governing body, it was announced today.
The World Taekwondo Federation said it had completed its review into the selection process by Great Britain Taekwondo and had decided to uphold the decision to pick Lutalo Muhammed over Cook despite the disparity in world rankings.
The WTF analysed evidence submitted by both Cook's lawyers and GBT and said it was satisfied that the criteria for selecting athletes for the Games had been followed.

Spring craft ideas don't get much more versatile than this Easily Embellished Glass Vase from Lisa Fulmer. Easy spring crafts make the best projects, especially if you're in need of some good homemade gifts. Make this vase to spruce up your or a friend's DIY home decor. You'll love how simple it is to add a mixed media embellishment on the side of this glass box vase. Use this vase to hold flowers, toiletries or odds and ends. When you see how lovely this vase looks, you won't be sorry you made it.
- 8.5" x 11" white sticky-back canvas (1 sheet) from the Claudine Hellmuth Studio line
- Creative Layers foam and clear stamps from the Claudine Hellmuth Studio line
- Multi-medium matte finish gel medium from the Claudine Hellmuth Studio line
- Semi-gloss acrylic paints from the Claudine Hellmuth Studio line
- Inkssentials non-stick craft sheet from the Claudine Hellmuth Studio line
- 4" square (cube) glass vase
- Paintbrushes
- Acrylic stamp block

- Cosmetic sponge
- Self-adhesive pearl embellishments
- Paper trimmer
- Iron
- Parchment paper
- Pencil and ruler
Choose 4 paint colors, blend a drop of each with a dab of medium to make 4 pale shades, then paint one color on each quadrant of one sheet of sticky-back canvas; allow to dry completely.
If the paper liner of the canvas curled as it dried, place the dry painted canvas sheet between 2 layers of parchment paper and press lightly with an iron on medium heat to flatten. Leave the liner in place, it won't get peeled off until the end.
Use a pencil and ruler to lightly mark a 4" square on each colored area of the canvas to stamp you design inside before the final trim.
Select the foam stamps you like and test-stamp different design combinations on paper with the brown ink pad first.
Choose the paint colors you want to stamp with and spread a small dab of each on your craft mat, then use a cosmetic sponge to dab some paint on to a foam stamp. Less is more with paint-stamping - don't overload the stamp with paint.
If the stamped image is too light, use it as a guide to paint a little more color within the lines with a small brush.
Allow each stamped image to dry a bit before moving on to the next to avoid smearing. Continue stamping your designs with the foam stamps on all 4 quadrants of the canvas sheet; allow to dry completely.
Choose the coordinating acrylic stamps and stamp them on top of the paint-stamped areas with a brown ink pad, allow to dry.
Trim out each 4" finished square, peel off the liner and apply each square to one side of the vase.
- Accent each square with self adhesive pearl embellishments.

Owners warm to Pillsbury products, 3-D screens
While it's always odd and extremely geeky that folks cheer when the Dolby logo appears at the start of screenings, it should be no surprise at ShoWest, a confab that celebrates films as well as the technology behind them.
And the confluence of showbiz, technology and hunger certainly yielded some quirky nuggets at this year's gathering:
- More emphasis was placed on camera and cell phone security than at any preem in L.A., as if someone might be eager to pirate Dan Glickman's keynote address. Even when people were just waiting for a speech to start, guards were out in full force, making sure everything was turned off.
- The National Assn. of Theater Owners has quietly abandoned its plan to shut down cell phone signals in movie auditoriums. "We found out that blocking signals was technically illegal," NATO prexy John Fithian admitted. "We prefer to do messaging and usher sweeps."
- Last year, taquitos. This year, brownie bites. Pillsbury made a splash showcasing new food groups for movie fans: warm donuts, chocolate-chip cookies and brownie bites. There's always gotta be something new, and concession companies were running out of things to make sour.
- Some theater owners may have done a double take when NATO and ShoWest gave Ang Lee and James Schamus an award for releasing "Lust, Caution" with an NC-17 rating.
For most exhibs and studios, the NC-17 sets off alarm bells. NATO, however, argues that if more distribs embraced the rating, it would lose its stigma.
- At ShoWest, more than one exhib seemed to confirm what some in Hollywood already suspected — that the loss of original programming on TV because of the writer's strike resulted in an uptick in theater attendance.
A small theater circuit in New England even planned to offer a Thursday-night discount if the strike continued.
And while no one will ever be able to prove the strike correlation, January and February did see record domestic B.O. tallies.
- Picturehouse was every little girl's dream studio at the confab, giving out American Girl dolls at its swag suite in the Bellagio. The live-action pic based on the doll line stars Abigail Breslin and should be huge with the tyke set.
- Speaking of little girls: Based on how many times people praised the Hannah Montana 3-D concert movie, you'd think Miley Cyrus was the hottest thing to hit the industry since popcorn. Actually, she is. The money the movie generated on such a small number of screens in such a short time was a delicious thing to ponder as exhibs look for something new.
But not as delicious as warm donuts.

Some on both the left and the right are saying that if we tumble off the fiscal cliff at the end of the year, President Obama should order the IRS not to change the withholding schedules to reflect the higher rates. While that might temporarily help the economy, it's unfair to taxpayers. If supercommittees, sequestration and cliffs didn't force an agreement, IRS shouldn't assume one is coming. For taxpayers, it's better to get a refund than a surprise tax bill.

A convicted sex offender whose been on the run for weeks with a 15-year-old girl was captured early Sunday at a Twin Lake mobile home park.
Terry Wesley Raap, 21, of Lakewood Club, was discovered at 1:10 a.m. early Sunday inside a mobile home at Timberline Estates Mobile Home Park, said Muskegon County Sheriff Dean Roesler.
State police and sheriff department officials were led to the scene after the owner of the mobile home called 911 and reported the whereabouts of both Raap and the 15-year-old girl, Roesler said.
When Raap attempted to flee the mobile home, Roesler said the mobile home owner restrained him until authorities arrived.
"We're glad the girl is now out of contact with him and we feel she in a much safer environment," Roesler said.
"I want to thank the media for putting the word out."
Raap -- who was on felony probation at the time of his arrest stemming from a 2005 conviction for having sex and impregnating an underage girl -- had managed to cut off his electronic tether on July 31, making him a fugitive. Raap had been sentenced for the 2005 second-degree criminal sexual conduct charge in October '07.
The 15-year-old girl Raap had been traveling with is also believed to be pregnant, Roesler said.
Raap is currently lodged at the Muskegon County Jail while authorities determine what, if any, new charges will be filed against him resulting in his relationship with the 15-year-old girl, Roesler said.
The Michigan Department of Corrections will determine what type of penalty Raap faces for violating his parole. Conditions of Raap's parole indicate he cannot have any contact with underage girls.
Meanwhile the girl is back living with her mother who intends to issue a criminal sexual conduct complaint against Raap, Roesler said.

Shares certainly are not flying around; little bits of trades going through. May be post-Labor Day by the time we see any real volume here in CRIS. Of course, that means we are closer to Sept 7 SU2C airing and another Q of Roche's E numbers. Anyone out there ... it's been quiet....
good luck -
Sentiment: Strong Buy
And there is still NO logical explanation, fundamental or technical, for the recent $1.40 drop in price. As someone here once put it, "that's a car".....or a small boat, or a kitchen renovation, or a semester's tuition, or whatever you want to name. As the saying goes, "It's in the game.", and I'm still a player.
The 'logical' explanation is that 'someone' - who IMO shorted heavily immediately after approval - has been taking advantage of low summer volume to drive the PPS down as hard and fast as they can, and chew up short-term longs who expected a continued rise after earnings were announced. I'm cynical enough to believe that these types of shorts could care less whether CRIS sold cancer cures or ornaments - it's generic shorting. The only surprise is that institutional longs have done nothing to defend the stock - probably in the Hamptons.

No-Fault Divorce Likely Coming to New York
By Mary Pilon
Following approval from the state assembly last week, Governor David Paterson is expected to sign legislation allowing for no-fault divorce, a move that would make New York the last state in the country to remove a cumbersome requirement that forces couples to place blame on one spouse for a marriage's end.
Under the new laws, a marriage would be allowed to legally end if one spouse says under oath that the marriage has been broken beyond repair for at least six months. In the past, couples had to perform legal maneuvers like separate for a year legally, then convert to divorce to accord with state law. Others have sought jurisdiction in other states like Connecticut.
Under the current law, one spouse must claim fault for the union's ending, even if both agree the decision to split is mutual. In the other 49 states, a couple seeking divorce doesn't need to provide proof that the marriage contract was legally broken. In New York, the possible reasons for proving the grounds for divorce include inhuman treatment, adultery, abandonment or confinement of a spouse in prison, and have historically left many couples grasping at straws.
New York's holdout on the law has "became antiquated," Don Schuck, a New York-based matrimonial and family lawyer with Pryor Cashman, in New York City. "It can potentially slow down the practice of divorce when there are plenty of other issues to get to."
The no-fault provision is part of a three-bill package of overall divorce reform, which also touches on how divorce counsel is paid. Lawmakers have argued that legal costs of divorce may have caused victims of domestic violence may stay in abusive relationships. By removing the fault provisions, the hope is clients will spend less on court fees because they'll be forced to prove less in court (such as whether or not a spouse cheated).
No-fault divorce originated in the 1970s and has been adopted by states in decades since. The New York law is something that legal groups and women's groups have lobbied years for, with some religious groups opposing, concerned that it could make divorcing too easy.
Even though divorce laws vary by state, couples are free to contract prenuptial agreements should they split in most states. Those agreements can dictate what happens to finances, legal fees, pets or even penalty fees for infidelity.

Although the date of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is uncertain, and we know nothing about the author, its composition is roughly contemporary with Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales in the latter part of the fourteenth century. It is a remarkably subtle and accomplished poem, in which the hero's knightly virtues of courage, courtesy and fidelity are put to the test in a strange adventure involving a huge green knight on a green horse, a winter journey, a lady in a mysterious castle and a challenge answered. It ranks as one of the greatest works of the English Middle Ages and perhaps the greatest triumph of the English alliterative tradition.
Unlike The Canterbury Tales, however, Sir Gawain is written in a dialect belonging to Cheshire, Lancashire or Staffordshire, and this seems more remote to the modern reader than Chaucer's London language. The aim of this edition has been to remove unnecessary impediments while retaining the integrity of the original. Notes and a glossary have been provided to assist an informed, critical reading of the text.

Why are you using the "X-No-Archive: yes" header?
(my newsfilter gives any posts with that header a unique score)
That will keep your part of this thread out of the Archives
and could very well prevent anyone in the future from making
sense of it and benefiting from it.
You didn't use it on your other posts, which were OT, and it
beats the hell out of me why you would choose to use on a thread
that is actually on topic.
I see that I was right in figuring you for a jerk.
Never read one of your articles and never will.
Regardless of which alias you are using at the moment.

Bonnie Franklin has pancreatic cancer, a family spokesman announced Monday.
The actress, 68, who starred on CBS's sitcom One Day at a Time, is undergoing treatment, the spokesman tells USA Today.
On the long-running series, which was on the air from 1975-1984, Franklin starred as divorced mom Ann Romano, alongside Mackenzie Phillips and Valerie Bertinelli, who played her teenage daughters.
Franklin and Bertinelli reunited on the small screen in 2011 when the now-ailing actress played the mother of Bertinelli's character's boyfriend on Hot in Cleveland.
Phillips expressed her upset about Franklin's situation in a Tweet that said, "Sending out love and sweet prayers to my 'mom.' The incomparable Bonnie Franklin."

Robinson now works for a Realtor in Fredericksburg, Va.
"I see where you wote about abandoned houses in Bridgeton,'' he said. "In Virginia, we buy abandoned houses and rehab them. Sometimes, we have to take them down to the studs.''
Hoo boy!
Just what Bridgeton needs.
More absentee landlords.
Harold Robinson is familiar with 3rd and 4th streets in Millville.
We told him AHOME, Affordable Homes of Millville Ecumenical, couldn't make a difference because either nobody wanted to buy in the neighborhood or those that did couldn't get a mortgage.
We told him Bridgeton is over 50 percent rentals and that has led to some bad neighborhoiods.
"We can change that,'' he said.
"I think we can change that,'' he repeated.
Whatever abandoned homes there are in Bridgeton have been through two public auctions.
We think Robinson's interest was peaked by Bob Thompson standing outside of the house he bought for $1,000.
"My boss wants to take a ride up there,'' he said. "I want to collect as much information as I can.''
He knows how long the drive is.
In the meantime, he's going to email us his thoughts.
Robinson, 60, was also big on Ambury Cemetery in Springtown, outside Greenwich.
"I pulled a hundred trees out of that cemetery after I found it overgrown,'' he said. "There are black Civil War soldiers buried there.''
It's part of Bethel AME Church, establiashed in 1810.
Bethel AME Church is as a rare, surviving African American institution associated with multiple participants in the Underground Railroad.
Located in the heart of the black community of Springtown in Greenwich Township, the church and its congregation offered lodging to fugitive slaves travelling north after leaving Maryland's Eastern Shore and Delaware.
Oral histories attest that Harriet Tubman used the Springton/Greenwich station from 1849-1853 during her passage north through Delaware to Wilmington, one of her most famous routes.

Fellows of Senate
David James Armour Verco
Mr David Verco, MA DipEd Sydney, was a Fellow of Senate appointed by the Governor from 1969 to 1972.
Senate's obituary
Mr D J A Verco, a former Fellow of the Senate, died on 18th August, 1972.
Mr Verco was appointed Director-General of Education and a Fellow of the Senate as from 31st December, 1968, following the retirement from both positions of Dr H. S. Wyndham. He graduated Bachelor of Arts in 1934 in this University, was awarded the Diploma in Education in the following year and the degree of Master of Arts in 1937.
After gaining his M.A., Mr Verco spent two years at the Australian Council for Educational Research where he obtained experience in research and educational testing. Following a period of teaching at Fort Street Boys' High School, he joined the New South Wales Department of Education as one of the first School Counsellors in its Guidance Division.
In 1947 he was appointed Principal Research and Guidance Officer in the Department, in which position he developed the system of Educational Guidance initiated in the public schools by Dr Wyndham.
Mr Verco was appointed as Assistant to the Director-General in 1952 and in 1958 became Director of Teacher Training. He was appointed Deputy Director-General of Education in 1963 and Director-General in 1969.
Mr Verco also contributed to this University as a part-time Lecturer in Education from 1959 to 1970, and as a member of the Board of Studies for the degree of Master of Education during his term as a Fellow.
In August, 1971, he stated the four general aims which his educational credo embodied: "Greater emphasis on individualized instruction of pupils; equality of educa tional opportunity; teaching pupils how to think, not what to think; assisting youngsters to develop their own system of values".

India may ban Android over adult content
0. phoneArena 16 Jul 2013, 09:39 posted on
With instances of frisky content allegedly available for free via Android applications in Inida, the country's Telecom Minister, Kapil Sibal, has reached out to the media for suggestions on how to deal with the issue...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

It was a really, really small article.

I clicked on the article when it said posted a minute ago, and a comment was already here lol. Don't defend SingDaFire.

@PapaSmurf I think he was just being sarcastic.
14. raunak (Posts: 507; Member since: 12 Oct 2011)
I'm not defending his opinion, but I read the article in about 40 seconds and english isn't my first language and with the thoughtless comment it is, it's posiible he might have read it and then quickly commented to be the first one.

If you don't know, windows market place does not have any app with adult content.
6. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10456; Member since: 14 May 2012)
I don't think they'll ban Android from India. Android has the most market share over there, followed by BB and iOS. And idk about Google saying there's no porn apps, I've seen a few (search results) that have maybe slipped in and seem really sketchy. But doesn't iOS also have porn apps too?
15. raunak (Posts: 507; Member since: 12 Oct 2011)
iOS doesn't have porn apps. Not a single one.
11. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
My friends of Indian decent, please don't take offense to this question but... Isnt India the birthplace of porn (The Kama Sutra)? Okay, maybe not the birthplace but you know what i mean. And I mean no disrespect with my question, it just seems ironic that the place where the best sex manual came from is banning porn.
17. raunak (Posts: 507; Member since: 12 Oct 2011)
Haha.. lol. A sex book doesn't mean porn. Over the years, we humans have made paintings, books, videos about sex and while kamasutra might be the most popular and oldest book about sex, it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with porn.
The point here is that if the play store itself has the porn apps, then even kids using mobiles will be able to download them. Sure, you can always visit porn sites for that, but that's not really in Google's hands.
If Google Play policies say there must be no porn apps, then Google really has to do its part and what it can to stop it.
40. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
*Sigh*. I know it's not porn.
And the point here is banning Android, in this sense, is like banning Blu-Ray players just because you cab get porn on it. You're just looking for another opportunity to take a jab at the platform. If this is true, it's beaning done by people who don't understand the technology in the first place, so banning Android will do nothing to stop people from seeing and view porn. Nice try, but that was a fail.
Also, the Play store doesn't have porn apps. It has a bunch of girls posing, that's about it.
20. Zeus.k (unregistered)
Lol. I'm from India and you have a valid question actually. Elections are near so it's all political. As far as banning Android is concerned, well that's never gonna happen. India is a democracy and I don't think 130 billion people would agree to that. Btw title of the article is really exaggerated.
42. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
Thank you for for the education sir. +10
46. iyngr (Posts: 72; Member since: 14 Jul 2013)
130 Billion People Really?? Correct your Facts. 130 Crore or 1.3 Billion.
53. Suraj3337 (Posts: 45; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
How dumb! There are about 6 billion people on the earth!
33. mobi_user (Posts: 151; Member since: 18 Jun 2013)
Mr.Whatever, I do not know which country you belong from. But use your time to research out the reasons for the book. There is history associated with everything.
39. Whateverman (Posts: 3262; Member since: 17 May 2009)
Com'on, I know the reasons for the book, I know it isn't porn. Lighten up, I was just saying it seem ironic. I meant no offense at all.
47. deburocks (Posts: 126; Member since: 20 Apr 2013)
hmmm..... Dude porn is little different frm kamasutra. . Kmasutra means enjoyinn sexual arousal and climax vid both party benefiting. , whereas u know whats in porno.... Hheheheh
13. Saintmarino (Posts: 12; Member since: 02 Dec 2012)
Blocking the sites/third party sources is the best that they can do, banning the complete platform just for this one reason will be naive. Following the same reasoning internet should be banned as well, where users can always search for pornographic images and videos.
16. rawbow (Posts: 428; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
Kapil Sibal, the minister in question is a good for nothing person. His party members were caught watching porn in the parliament leading to national shame. He's a hypocrite and the media is right to attack him. He and his party should start working to curb poverty and develop good infrastructure in the country. Old idiots

So how much did M$ pay (in green money) for letting him "think" about banning android? All this is nothing but wanting bribe from GOOG as elections are round the corner next year and his Party needs lot of moola for that.
23. yowanvista (Posts: 340; Member since: 20 Sep 2011)
Totally false news. Its shocking that this has been posted this without any sort of verification. Kapil Sibal wants adult content on Play Store removed that'a all. More Reputable Sources:http://www.nextbigwhat.com/kap

the same can be said about u.s. media, especially around election time.

Kapil Sibal is a d**khead imo.
27. deburocks (Posts: 126; Member since: 20 Apr 2013)
Wnat a loser k.s is.... Why dont they ban flesh trade, female trafficking instead. yup there are porno stuff in droids and even if google claims its very much filtered , so they are just lying to themselves. But that dosent means banning n o.s alltogether. He himself is a big time pervert, and so most of the politicians. and btw i cant see ms hand behind it altogether , stop dragging msft or nokia in it. . Maybe one of the minister got caught watching some porno in his android handset. And he blamed the links in the app( advt).haha... Chronicles of p@rnia.... Lmao

That won't happen, there are Indian phone and other electronics makers using and dependant on Android.

yeah i did, because i'm an Indian, now u can read my comment in indian accent too :P
34. JMartin22 (Posts: 1969; Member since: 30 Apr 2013)
I'm sure glad I don't live in one of these developing countries. They need to develop a new mind set and get out of the age where tyrants and kings shepherded and oppressed their people.
35. FanOfNone (Posts: 5; Member since: 11 Jul 2013)
Hate Indian politicians, instead of focusing on core problems ! they focus on things which are not even a problem ! GDP growth has slowed down to just 5.6%, poverty is still a big issue ! but no, all they want to do is ban some cute little porn apps !
48. deburocks (Posts: 126; Member since: 20 Apr 2013)
they just f@@@d our country bro. SOme people dont even have money to buy food and basic stuff , leave alone a phone . On the other hand these politicians and some corrupt govt officials( babulog) have millions lying in their swiss account and at home . The indication of decrease in gdp and fall in money reflects that what damage many of these termites have done. Instead of uplifting the standard of living and helping out poors, they fight like wild dogs, the only difference is that they f@@@n dont kill each other, hahahaha....

51. itsdeepak4u2000 (Posts: 3718; Member since: 03 Nov 2012)
No, its not possible, this will not happen, Android will remove the adultery content from Playstore for India.
52. pranith (Posts: 1; Member since: 18 Jul 2013)
This is really cheap trick played by Indian politics to grab the money. India is big good platform for any goods n things. The android users in india are growing enormously. Due to the open source of platform. To make the money from google n to fil politicians pockets they are giving this statements. Isn't it stupidity to ban droid rather than finding the better way to avoid porn. There are many apps in play store which helps alot ex:google maps etc etc that to freely so stupid policians dump yo stupid 1940's brains in garbage n think better towards development of country
54. Alaukika22 (Posts: 1; Member since: 23 Sep 2013)
This is next to impossible that Android get Ban .. But By reading Out this article I came across one more articles. ON Anodroid Get Ban In INdia on Voniz.com and more .

I found these while cleaning off some cards for a shoot today. Shooting into the sun is always a little tricky, but add a moving target like a kid on a swing and it gets even tougher. Here were a few I was proud of out of the hundred or so I took.
He asked for it
My brother, Cody, keeps harassing me for not posting anything "funny" on my blog. Then he made the mistake of sending me this self-portrait he took yesterday using Photo Booth.
Tim had a great idea, please give it a caption in the comments.
So there. Funny enough for you?
Still alive
I just wanted to check in and let everyone know I'm still alive. We got Cody out of the hospital last week and he has recovered nicely. Conner and I are sick, however, and that's kept me down for the better part of the week. I'm still not feeling great, but I'm at least functional again.
On the upside, I'm working on some very cool projects, so when I'm not coughing up a lung or sleeping, I'm staying busy.
What a day it continues to be
In case, once again, you haven't been following on Twitter, I should let you know we are still in the hospital.
They got us to that blessed point where we were ready to go. It was a good thing too, we're all a little punch drunk and we've been fighting Cody ever since the surgery. He hasn't been himself at all. All he had to do was eat a few bites and we were out the door.
Then he melted down like I've never seen him melt down before. He basically Hulked out. Stomping, screaming. The little guy even took a swing at me (I was secretly proud in a manly way). They decided the medication he was on was making him a little crazy. They also decided he (we) got to stay another night to make sure he comes back from the Dark Side.
So we're still here. More tired. More cranky. Probably more smelly (hey, we've been here two days now).
What a day it's been
For those that don't follow me on Twitter or Facebook (and why don't you?), today was one of those days.
It started with us taking Cody back to the doctor to try and find out why he's been running a fever and been feeling generally crappy for a few days. It ended (and I guess is still in the process of ending) with Cody having an emergency appendectomy. For a three-year-old, that's quite an ordeal.
As I type this, it's 12:15 in the morning. He finally woke fully up. He was greeted by some new toys and a popsicle. And now we're watching Ninja Turtles. After midnight. I'm not sure when this day will end but now you see why it's been one of those days.
A quick thank you to everyone who prayed for us and checked in. I can't tell you how many phone calls and messages on Twitter we received letting us know you were praying for Cody. You have no idea how much that helped. I love you guys.
Never play golf with Darth Vader
How could you turn down the Sea Dog?
While enjoying lunch today I looked across the street and saw a big sign for the, um, food above. I guess it's a wiener-shaped piece of fish in a hot dog but with tartar sauce. Either way, you can't pass up something called the Sea Dog.
I'll head to Weinerschnitzel later this week and do a video review of it. How could something like that be bad?
Become a better photo marketer
There are a million sites out there dedicated to making you a better photographer. Many are great, some are not.
One of the great resources, though, has always been Zack Arias. The past few days, he's started presenting video critiques of photographer's websites on his blog. These have been amazing so far. After just two episodes, he's taught a lot on photo editing and even website features.
These are all critiques of photographers who've asked him to take a look at the site. I haven't asked specifically because I already know of some huge problems with my site and I'm working to correct them right now. Then maybe I'll get up the courage. Until then, check out episode one and episode two here. I promise these will help you be a better photo marketer.
And thanks again to Zack for always being such a great resource.
Thank God we didn't start the shiv-making lessons yet
We're just enjoying a hectic Friday deadline day when the phone rings.
It's Colton's vice-principle.
Colton is in trouble.
For stabbing a classmate.
With a thankfully unsharpened popsicle stick.
It's really not as bad as it sounds. Just two boys doing what boys do when given anything resembling a knife or sword. They fought. Somehow though, Colton managed to draw a small amount of blood so the principle had to be brought in. Apparently it wasn't a big deal, but it was one of those things where we had to be called. Still, that's not a call you really want to get.
This is for my brother, who called today to let me know I haven't blogged anything funny/useful/about my kids in a while. This one is at least two out of three.
Watch what you cut
A quick thought on watching the cuts you make to save money during the recession. It could cost you customers. What do you think?

Is it likely that Loughborough would be oversubscribed for Geography course this year? And if one was to miss their offer by say one grade, so got BBB instead of ABB.... would there be any chance them taking the individual on? Or is it pointless even hoping that? Or would they maybe say that one has to do Geography with something else?
Any ideas.
Would appreciate any responses.
Thank you.
How competitive is Loughborough for Geography?

You could always phone them up, saying you're a 'prospective' student and tell them you're likely to get BBB and what are the chances of still being accepted. You don't need to tell them your name, so you get the info straight from those who make the decisions and they aren't any wiser as to who you are.
No one will know. Even the uni won't know at this stage as it will depend on how many people meet their offers. If they give places to everyone they have to and still have a load of spare places then you may be in luck; if you miss the offer and the course is full, doesn't matter how close you were, they won't take you. I don't know how under/oversubscribed that particular course is, but these things vary year on year anyway.
I'm in exactly the same position for the same uni and same course. Let me know what they say if you do give them a ring!

Berwick Conservatives have launched their local election campaign with a pledge to fight every seat in north Northumberland.
As well as five councillors standing for re-election, the party have 12 new candidates hoping to form part of Northumberland County Council after May 2.
Its new candidates include: Steven Purvis, Norham & Islandshire; Tom Forrester, Berwick North; John Stephenson, Berwick West with Ord; Georgina Hill, Berwick East; John Woodman, Bamburgh; Brian Hesler, Rothbury; Bruce Hewison, Alnwick and Peter Robinson, Amble.
Up for re-election are: Anthony Murray, Wooler; Trevor Thorne, Shilbottle; Glen Sanderson, Longhorsley; Jeff Watson, Amble West with Warkworth and Gordon Castle, Alnwick.
Conservative parliamentary candidate Anne-Marie Trevelyan said: "We do have some tough fights, but I think our record of working all year round will win through. Our canvassing suggests we can add another three or four seats, but we will see on the day.

New trout regulation into effect. On January 3, checked a fisherman from St. Mary's who landed a 44-inch musky below Hemlock Eddy. He also had two muskies follow that day. An outdoor writer from a southwest PA newspaper called, requesting information on the new trout regulation and fishing in general. Over the next several months he printed many articles about the new regulation and fishing conditions on the river. Commission officers pass the word of new regulations by public contact and ask for voluntary compliance. Reception to the regulation is generally good.
Mild weather brought many out-of-towners in for weekend fishing in the new special regs area. We checked many brown trout in the 20-inch class. Surprisingly, many of these fishermen are driving up from the Pittsburgh area and back in one day, not staying overnight. Walleye fishing was not its best, but trout fishing was excellent, and we received many compliments. Voluntary compliance to the new regulation was also excellent. Another angler caught three legal muskies in one day downstream from the mouth of Conewango Creek.
Trout fishing was superb! Many brown trout 20 inches and bigger were checked. These fish have girths of about 14 inches, all in the 4- to 5-pound range. Stable river conditions were providing fantastic trout fishing. Occasional catches of northern pike were up, and one angler caught two over 30 inches in one day at the mouth of Conewango Creek. Mild weather at the end of the month brought the water temperature up. Last weekend of the month an angler and partner caught and released over 60 smallmouth bass in the old dredge hole behind the refinery. Some really nice fish. We received new posters for special regs area and posted them accordingly.
A Pittsburgh-area outdoor writer carried several articles about the river. Interest is high, and numbers of fishermen were very good because of the nice weather and stable river flow. A trio of anglers caught over 160 smallmouth bass in the dredge hole behind the refinery the weekend before trout season. Over 50 percent of the fish exceeded 15 inches! On opening day of the trout season I checked more than a half-dozen trout fishermen in the special regs area. On April 22, Tionesta hatchery personnel stocked over a million walleye fry in the Warren County portion of the river.
Opening night of walleye season we checked fishermen and found nearly all with some trout, about 10 percent of those fishermen had a creel limit of two trout over 14 inches, including some rainbows. On May 27, we stocked 75,000 brown and 75,000 rainbow trout fingerlings in the river from the dam to Conewango Creek at five stocking points. The rainbow fingerlings were exceptional, most about 5 inches long. River conditions were low and stable, perfect for stocking. Memorial Day weekend I checked a 17-inch rainbow taken at Shipman's Eddy.
First week of June, fly fishermen in the special regs area were having a ball catching small rainbows on dry flies. Fishing pressure was high, with up to 10 persons at a time fly fishing the pipeline crossing behind Dari Delite. Musky fishing was hot, with two guys catching and releasing five legal muskies in one evening near Starbrick. Northern pike fishing was good behind the refinery. One regular reported that he and friends did a spotlighting float from the dam to Glade Run and saw an uncountable number of trout and muskies. River level was low and stable, and anytime flow drops below 1,500 cfs, the fly fishermen come out of the woodwork! On June 18 we checked a nice rainbow trout caught in the special reg area. We checked fishermen in every riffle area from the dam to Glade Bridge that evening. Walleye fishing, however, was poor, which is normal under low river conditions.
Trout fishing behind the refinery was excellent with many people catching and releasing rainbows under the 14-inch limit. A local tackle shop reported many people fishing and catching trout in the special regs area. On July 7, a weekday, we saw over a dozen fishermen from the dam to Glade Bridge, and more than half were fly fishing. We were surprised to find three guys fishing for smallmouths in this stretch, and they reported they had a decent day. On July 8, a weekday, there was a fisherman in every riffle from the dam to Starbrick! On July 18 I watched an angler land and release the third legal musky he had caught that one day in the area from the Glade Bridge to Dunns Eddy. He also had a 6-pound freshwater drum (sheepshead) he caught near Starbrick. We noticed that there appeared to be a very good spawn of smallmouth bass this summer, probably attributed to the low, stable water conditions. We checked good catches of 2- to 3-pound smallmouths during the latter part of the month. A local taxidermist told me that the trout fishing in the river this year has been good for his business.
Many catches of 3- and 4-pound smallmouths from the dam to Brokenstraw Creek. A regular told me that northern pike have been caught and released on every outing behind the refinery. Trout fishing, especially for big browns, has been exceptional in the area around the Glade Bridge. People catching the big browns were excited about the fighting ability of these big fish. The fishing activity was higher than at this time last year, particularly from Putnam's Eddy to Buckaloons. River conditions were perfect for fishing, and the number of musky fishermen on the water suggested they were catching some. On August 18 I stocked 400 musky fingerlings in the river in the Starbrick area, using a boat, and placing the fingerlings in weedbeds. They were 6 inches to 7 inches long and looked to be in excellent condition. The baitfish population looked excellent all along the river. The week of August 23, a good white fly hatch occurred from downstream of Conewango through Dunn's Eddy (at least). On August 30 my wife and I floated the section of the river from the dam to Glade Bridge. We caught six smallmouths and had a couple of trout follow. I noticed that one regular was fishing this section of the river for muskies; he got a couple of walleyes, too, while I watched him in Hemlock Eddy. This month I prosecuted four stream encroachment cases involving excavation and/or fill along the river from Starbrick to Cobham.
While patrolling at Tidioute on September 5, an excellent hatch of what appeared to be caddises came off from 10 am until about 1 pm. Fish were rising all along the river. On the 6th, I checked three successful fly fishermen just downstream from Dixon Island; all had caught rainbows in the 14-inch range. Again I noticed that the musky guides were fishing the special regs trout area more than the usual musky hotspots farther downstream. A reporter from the local newspaper told me that a person landed a 9-pound drum at the mouth of Conewango Creek the first week of the month. Weed growth has been heavy this year, but there are benefits to this. Large numbers of baitfish use the weeds for cover and catches of pike and smallmouths were really good on the weed edges. River conditions have been very stable and the water very clear after mid-month, and the fishing remained excellent. Patrolling during the Tidioute tournament, I checked a 20-pound musky caught in the special regs area, a 32-incher near Starbrick, plus two northerns about 8 pounds each around Shipman's Eddy. I checked a lot of walleyes in the special regs area during the tournament. The two largest trout from the tournament I saw were caught in Conewango Creek, but a couple of nice rainbows were taken near Brokenstraw Creek as well. Again, in the special regs area, I checked several smallmouths over 3 pounds.
No rain early in the month, clear water, and lots of 3- to 4-pound smallmouths all along the river. A tremendous hatch of tan caddises from October 3 until the 8th. Some nice walleyes were taken just above the Glade Bridge on the 3rd. On the 16th, the first day water temperatures were below 60 degrees downstream from Conewango Creek, my wife and I took three walleyes near Starbrick late in the afternoon, two of which were legal size. The third week of October some rainbow trout in the 12-inch to 16-inch class were taken on minnows fairly consistently. A few white bass were also checked in the tailrace. Below Dixon Island there was little fishing pressure this month. Even the tailrace has had few fishermen during the daylight hours, even on weekends. On October 25, a Sunday, it was 65 degrees, sunny, and between 1 and 3 in the afternoon there was not one fisherman between the dam and Dixon Island. We began a survey of fishermen in the tailrace this month to get a better handle on public opinion on the new trout regulations.
Started the same as October ended. On November 7, I checked a boat and some fly fishermen wading behind the refinery. They reported catching many smallmouths over 18 inches, but they were really here to catch trout. They were from New Kensington, and have been coming here for years. One of the anglers had some good news. He said he had been catching small rainbows all year behind Metzgar Industrial Park and in the riffle above Conewango Creek. He said these fish were only about 7 inches long in the spring, and he got so many that they were actually a nuisance at times. But now these same fish were around 10 inches and 11 inches long, healthy, and more fun to catch. He said he fly fished wet flies and streamers all year, and up until 2,700 cfs discharge it was safe and good fishing. Above that it was still okay fishing, but not safe to wade. He had attended a Keystone Coldwater Conference recently and had learned how to determine numbers and diversity of aquatic insects. His classroom had been Spring Creek, in Centre County, one of the state's more famous trout streams. He said that the Allegheny River from the dam to Starbrick was more diverse and had good numbers as well. This was all good news! He and his friends made day trips to the area, though, choosing not to stay overnight. One man from St. Mary's had one walleye of about 20 inches, and he said he released two smaller ones. He told me that from October 29 to December 29, 1997, he had creeled 37 walleyes over 20 inches from the tailrace; but this year the bite was not as good, probably due to low flow. He also said he had done well on white bass up to 18 inches last year. Because a 14-inch white bass is considered big, this is a good sign. On November 8, I talked to another angler who said he and a partner caught and released about 80 smallmouths behind the refinery on the previous weekend. Water temperature was 55 degrees, still warm enough for smallmouths to be active. On November 14, several boats and wading fishermen were behind the refinery. On the 15th, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) cut the outflow to 600 cfs, and fly fishermen immediately showed up at the Glade Bridge.
A stretch of mild weather until the 17thprobably 8 to 12 fishermen per day in the special regs
area. Again, few were targeting trout. Most were fishing for walleyes, and the fishing was poor and inconsistent. From
the Glade Bridge to Starbrick, fishermen in the dredge holes have been getting a few legal walleyesone per day here
and there. One guy caught a 22-inch walleye at the Glade Bridge that had a 10-inch rainbow trout in its throat! Reports
included a lot of 8-inch to 13-inch walleyes in the dredge holes, particularly at Starbrick. They have been such a
nuisance that the guys were using larger bait to keep them off the hook. Some smallmouths, big ones, were still caught,
but the low water conditions seemed to alter the normal fishing patterns. Warm weather on the weekend of the 19th
brought out lots of boats on the dredge holes in and below Warren. A local angler reported a lot of 8-inch to 10-inch
walleyes at Starbrick, but he did get a couple around 20 inches. On the 20th I watched two boats with five fishermen
catch and release five muskies, all appearing to be near legal size. The fishermen were not happy; they wanted walleyes!
After Christmas, ice plugged up the dredge holes, effectively stopping the fishing. The COE cut the flow to 600 cfs, but
the week after Christmas I did not see anyone fishing the special regs area.

Guy Fawkes: Remembering what?
"Remember, remember, the fifth of November, Gunpowder Treason and Plot."
This is a classic playground rhyme learned by every British school child. It marks an important event that took place 407 years ago today. But what's it all about?
Guy Fawkes Night (or Bonfire Night and Fireworks night) is celebrated in Great Britain on November 5. It commemorates the failed plot to assassinate King James I on November 5, 1605 at the official state opening of Parliament. The plan was to blow up the House of Lords, killing the King and all the dignitaries present.
Guy was arrested following a 'tip to the authorities while guarding 36 barrels of gunpowder that had been smuggled into the House of Lords. He, along with his fellow co-conspirators, was executed.
In the years following the foiled attempt, people lit bonfires and burned effigies of Guy Fawkes. To this day, people all over the UK commemorate with public or private firework parties and bonfires. Continue reading "Guy Fawkes: Remembering what?" »
4th of July: Star-spangled family fun!
Today is Independence Day in the US. It is always marked with fun-filled activities, including parades, barbecues, picnics, and the all-important fireworks displays.
What's your most memorable 4th of July family memory?
We may celebrate at a lake, at the beach, in a backyard or at a neighborhood park. It's always a day for family and friends to gather. No matter what was going on in other parts of the world (see newspaper article from 1940 below), this holiday was celebrated to remind us of the freedoms we enjoyed at home.
My grandparents owned a large property with some 80 summer rental cottages, about two hours north of New York City. Many of the same families returned year after year, and we became a close group as we grew up together.
My grandmother organized the two main summer events: 4th of July at the season's opening, and the Labor Day festivities in early September, signaling the end of our carefree summer, returning to the city and getting ready for school.
In the faux Tudor "big house," Grandma's big country kitchen sported a black cast iron stove, the source of everything delicious! Every year, she produced buckets of the most delicious coleslaw, potato and macaroni salads.

Human Bean
Eric 'Butterbean Esch Would Like to Beat Up on Mike Tyson, but It's Possible He's Too Gentle a Giant
In fact, as big as Butterbean is—and he is very, very big—he is an oversize bundle of sweetness who poses no threat at all to unwary civilians. On the other hand, in the traveling slugfest known as the Toughman Contest, an elimination boxing tournament for the rankest of amateurs, Esch was, from 1990 to 1994, a bell-to-bell brawler who scored 40 knockouts on his way to a 67-4 record. His heroics inspired a Tough-man video game for Sega systems and have earned him numerous appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
They have also led Esch, 26, to leap from the Toughman circus to the legitimate prize ring, where he has rung up 19 wins in 20 fights against opponents of dubious quality. (His next will be on USA Network on April 30 against George Clark.) Now, of course, he wants Mike Tyson—which boxing insiders believe would be a fatal mistake. "He's a sweet, likable guy" says boxing commentator Larry Merchant. "But he can't fight." Butterbean, who once shed weight by adopting a diet consisting mostly of his vegetable namesake, will not be discouraged.
"I believe I can beat Tyson," says Esch. "I fight differently than other folks, that's all."
For years the mild-mannered giant didn't fight at all, at least not by choice. Esch spent his early years in St. John's, Mich., near Lansing, where his father, Bernard, worked on a General Motors assembly line. In 1975, after Esch's mother, Dorothy, died from injuries incurred in a car accident, Bernard remarried and took his new brood—Eric has four step-and three full-siblings—to live in Jasper, Ala. There Eric was forced daily to refight the Battle of Shiloh. "Southern people don't really care for Yankees," says Esch, who by seventh grade tipped in at 250 pounds. "They think they won that war."
Never one to throw his weight around, Esch didn't fare much better at home. "You could always hurt his feelings with a cross word," says his sister Debra, 38. Once, during an argument, Esch's sister Tammie, 35, threw him to the ground and broke his arm. "I was in shock," says Esch. "Then, I started hollering."
At Curry High School, Esch went out for football but decided it was boring and quit. He preferred drag racing and bass fishing or shooting BB guns with his buddies. "Basically, we'd go into the woods and shoot each other," he says. "Whoever gave up first lost."
Married to high school girlfriend Libby Gaskin, 28, Esch had bulked up to 420 pounds in 1990, when the Toughman Contest came to town. Encouraged by his coworkers at a mobile home factory, Esch signed up. Twenty pounds over the limit, he was forced to diet, and for two weeks he resorted to the humble butter bean, a legume high in protein and devoid of fat. "I ate some chicken breasts and tuna," says Esch. "But mostly I ate butter beans. It sucked terribly. I hate them now."
In his first bout, Esch lost a decision. But thereafter, fighting as often as three contests a month, he saw his earnings rise to $1,000 a week, compared to $250 at his job. "I liked the money," he says. So did Libby, whose shouts of "Kill 'em!" could be heard above the fans who chanted his name whenever the Bean entered the ring.
After losing in the finals of the Toughman World Championships in both 1993 and 1994, Esch sensed it was time for something new. In 1995 he moved to Bay City to be closer to his manager Art Dore, 59. Dore is thrilled with Butterbean-mania but admits that, so far, Butterbean hasn't fought anyone with a discernible pulse. "That's the way it is," says Dore. "You want your fighter to be able to beat the other guy." A big problem with Esch, says Dore, is that "he's really just a big teddy bear."
Maybe so. But now Esch has his game face on and is curled up in front of the Sega game bearing his name with Caleb. "Dad, I'm going to knock you out," says the boy. At that point, the virtual Butterbean appears on the screen, and father and son go at it. On the ropes, Bean battles back and Caleb goes down for the count. Butterbean smiles, and another critic is silenced. "What's that you were saying," he asks, "about me being easy to beat?"

Todd Hido is an American photographer, now based in San Francisco, who has become well-known for his series on suburban homes across the US. His photos are voyeuristic depictions of the America I grew up with—solemn suburbs with only shy signs of an interior life, proto-iconic suburbs lit by the nightly glow of the news.
They are eerie and provocative—a feat for pictures that seem so minimal. His exterior shots are recognizable for their Instagrammed vibe—they are deceivingly anachronistic. Nonetheless, they are intensely documentarian. They depict the suburban architecture, but look deeper, and it's obvious that Hido is portraying not the built but the lives that we build.
Hido has a series on foreclosed homes in the LA area, shot in the mid-'90s. They bear the marks of lives lived, some with dilapidation, some with debris unmoved by the evicted. Through Hido's lenses: The filthy ones I liked best for pictures; they told a better story. In the clean ones, I wondered what was erased. The anonymity of these photographs is part of what intrigues and fascinates. These contextless photos beg viewers to create narratives; they serve as reminders (whether intended or unintended by Hido) to us as architects, as designers, that what we design will be a part of its surroundings—wherever that may be.
To quote Zumthor, what we put out there will be "used and loved, discovered and bequeathed, given away, abandoned, and perhaps even hated—in short, that it will be lived in, in the wildest sense." It's a romantic notion, but if nothing else, it at least exists in anticipation. And Hido is very aware of this—the intentionality of showing these homes as solitary, context given only by the foreground and the sky, shows the intended but unplanned lives that we build and exist in, in our built.

If only it happened that way...
Fans of the Real Housewives of New York City watched as former BFFs Jill Zarin and Bethenny Frankel clashed – then had a major fallout – on season 3 of their hit Bravo show, which aired earlier this year. Now, Bravo is revisiting the feud and animating it for good (and parodistic) measure.
This Thursday, the channel will air the animated special Shep & Tiffany Watch TV: The Best of 2010 (11 p.m. EST) which revisits major pop culture moments of 2010 with a humorous – and snarky – perspective based on animated web shorts from Shepard Boucher. Now PEOPLE.com has a sneak peek at at a clip from the show which imagines what would happen if Zarin and Kelly Bensimon visited Frankel in the hospital before she gave birth to her daughter.
Check out the clip, then tune in for more animated parodying of everybody from Top Chef's Padma Lakshmi to the Jersey Shore cast.
