Q: My hamster is 2 years old and has a swollen tail and his nails have gone black. Do you know what is wrong with him?
A: This may be a sign of a serious bacterial infection that has traveled through the bloodstream to the peripheral areas of the hamster's extremities. If bacteria are in the bloodstream, it may be lodged in the smaller vessels called capillaries and cause severe damage in those areas. The blood vessels may die and the tissue, such as nails, may die and appear black.
Toxins can do the same type of damage. If you can, visit your veterinarian as soon as possible. Toxins or bacteria can travel to other areas of the body and kill your hamster. Or the tissues that have already died can release their own toxins which can make your hamster very sick.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Home Decor
|Retro / Vintage
Very beautiful. This is where I can use the really high quality (read: pricey, expensive, shock screaming, sell-a-kidney-to-get-1/2-a-yard) fabric with all the lovely smaller sewing projects. I'm new at sewing but I sort of went right from making my first pair of pants (which didn't fit) and skirt (which I screwed up and reversed one of the panels) to quilting. So, in my mind I don't really think of "sewing" anymore because all that pops into my head is the dreaded migraine inducing clothing monster that takes away all my happiness. Seriously, I am not cut out for it (no pun intended). Besides, when I decided to buy my first machine and take beginning sewing classes I really just only wanted to do home decor. Nonetheless of my blathering, just wanted to say "GREAT JOB!!" - such a beautiful pillow and I love the fabric. Did you use a particular pattern?

Venerable British audio manufacturer, Naim, has an almost-equally-venerable new Canadian distributor, Plurison. Headed by the genial Daniel Jacqueson the right in the photo, with Doug Graham, Naim's International Export Manager on the leftPlurison's list of distributed brands includes Focal, Mordaunt-Short, MartinLogan, Pathos, YBA, Micromega, and a host of others. It must put Jacques in a quandary when he has to decide what product to take home to listen to on the weekend!
Hot news at SSI was that Naim will now be distributed in the US by The Sound Organisation, which also distributes Rega products.

I got the following message for my NAT:
Your network is behind a cone NAT
Did a couple searches on that message and found something suggesting that port forwarding port 16000 would solve the issue. Did that and now I'm showing my NAT as Open...

I have spent more time messing with this than actually playing. So what should it actually say after doing mp test obviously not cone.

A little dining, shopping, and theater were on the agenda before Kate Winslet gave birth to her third child, a son, on Saturday.
The actress lives with her husband of one year, businessman Ned Rocknroll, about an hour outside of London in the small village of Elsted, West Sussex. And she's often seen around town making school runs with her kids – daughter Mia, 13, and son Joe, 9, from her previous marriages – and visiting shops.
"Kate is just part of the community like anyone else. She is always running around," says a local source. "Everyone leaves her alone to lead her life in peace."
Her most recent shopping trips, in Kings Road, Chelsea, on Nov. 27, and at the Chichester branch of House of Fraser on Dec. 2. followed some quality time with family and friends.
On Nov. 14, Winslet met up with Richard Branson's mother, whom she helped rescue from a fire in 2011, at The Old House at Home in Chichester. "Kate seemed happy, smiling and well," says a fellow diner. "She was just chatting to Richard's mother and having a nice lunch."
The next day, Winslet and Rocknroll joined some friends for an evening performance of the Book of Mormon at the Prince of Wales Theatre, London. "She was glowing and really in great spirits," says a theatergoer. "She said with being so close to her due date she fancied a night out and a giggle."
After the show, Winslet went backstage and met the cast, then walked back to the Covent Garden hotel with Rocknroll. "She seemed really excited," the theatergoer adds. "And very happy."

All others, subject to editing, are published in the online Journal Junction at www.journal-news.net under opinions.
From Jefferson County:
If I was in the real estate business, I would start advertising in The Journal and the Hagerstown paper targeting people from Maryland who make more than $100,000 per year. We should get all of them to move to West Virginia, and send everyone who wants to be cared for by the government over to let Martin O'Malley take care of them.
From Tabler Station:
The person in Hedgesville having property damage done by them nasty splinter cats needs some snipes to protect their property. Me and a few of my friends will take you snipe hunting at Sleepy Creek forest. The only thing you need to bring is a big brown bag. We'll drive the snipes toward you and you can catch them in your bag - then your problem is solved!
From Jefferson County:
I'm curious as to why - with all the millions of dollars that come into this county every week from the racetrack and gambling - our taxes are being raised, all the students don't have free lunches and there isn't more money being put into the schools so they wouldn't be firing the teachers. Somebody really needs to look into this very, very deeply. Something is terribly wrong. There is too much greed in this county, and we need to stop it now.
From Martinsburg:
We welcome our new Journal editor and his escape from New York and its taxation with representation history and left-wing political leanings. We hope he can maintain The Journal's long-term history of conservative, commonsense local values.
From Jefferson County:
Just wanted to wish a big "how! how!" to two dedicated and retiring Jefferson County principals, Paul Brown and Mark Osbourn. Both were student-centered. We will miss you!
From Summit Point:
I think it is absolutely crazy to read how all of you guys argue about all of this political stuff and you guys are all getting it from the same sources, like the Internet, news or one of your crazy friends. I think that you guys should grow up and realize that none of you guys knows anything that the other one doesn't. You are all watching the same stuff but picking up on different things.
From Charles Town:
In response to the superintendent of the Board of Education: It is my understanding that the RIFs have been rescinded, but the bonuses for attendance have been reinstated. It appears nothing has been done to save the budget for the county.
From Martinsburg:
Martinsburg voters: Let's not make the same mistake twice by electing a former councilman again who, when elected, was unable to be reached and was never seen or heard from again. We need someone who will work with us and is dependable, honest and trustworthy.
From Jefferson County:
In response to the Obama parrot who lives in Hedgesville and your call today about gas prices going down and jobs growing, etc.: I don't know where you get your information, but it is certainly not completely true. By the way, why aren't you thanking President Obama for stating that if he gets this energy policy to go through that the decides the energy prices will necessarily sky rocket. You have the money for that? Will you be paying that so happily? I doubt it.
From Martinsburg:
I would personally like to thank the person who found my debit card at Sheetz on Edwin Miller Boulevard on Saturday. I'm so grateful that they found it and turned it into Sheetz. Thank you for being so honest.
From Martinsburg:
John McCain is 10 times the man that Barack Obama will ever be. Enough said, no explanation required.
From Martinsburg:
To the Hedgesville Obama worshipper: Dr. Nidal Hasan was a terrorist, and if gas being up to $3.60 from $2 is down, that sounds like liberal math.
From Inwood:
So the GOP conservatives say cut, cut and cut more, give more tax cuts and benefits to the top percent because that will get our country out of debt and give the job creators ways to create jobs - it's what they call austerity. Well, look what that tactic did to Greece. More and more unemployment, services canceled. The facist party, what is commonly known as the Nazi party, now controls half of the elected positions in Greece. History repeating it seems, but it's not Germany this time.
From Charles Town:
To Bunker Hill concerning Gerrardstown about Darwin's Theory of Evolution isn't valid or genuine science: Darwin also wrote that whites are superior to black people. This is wrong on so many levels. You can't have it both ways.
From Kearneysville:
Mitt Romney bought companies, cut them up in pieces and sold them off. If corporations are people, doesn't this make Romney a mass murderer?
From Hedgesville:
Gas prices have doubled, ice cream up 19 percent, hamburger up 24 percent, bacon up 22 percent. National debt is up 24 percent, slowest recovery after a recession in our history, unemployment more than 8 percent. Thank you, Obama.
From Charles Town:
About six months ago, the Republican National Lawyers Association reported the results of their investigation on voter fraud. And the grand total of proven voter fraud cases cited was 311! A whopping 311 cases of voter fraud out of 400 to 500 million votes cast in the past four elections! That's .00006 percent. Since when is .00006 percent rampant voter fraud? It isn't.
From Martinsburg:
Spring Mills: The Walmart at Spring Mills is better than the Martinsburg one. I was in the Martinsburg one this Sunday and they had live birds in the store flying around. It is kind of hard to shop and you wonder if you are going to get dumped on by the birds.
From Berkeley Springs:
Republicans want a Christian church-run state. They want nationalized religion. They want live babies so they can grow up to become dead soldiers.
From Berkeley County:
Eagle School Road from the intersection of Meadow Lane to the entrance of Bridle Creek subdivision has been extensively damaged by the steady stream of 10-wheel dump trucks hauling fill dirt for the Raleigh Street extension. In many places the paved edge of the road has been broken away, resulting in deep ruts dropping away to the dirt shoulders. Cars and trucks are now hugging the yellow line and in some instances crossing it in order to avoid hitting these holes and damaging their vehicles. It's just a matter of time until wrecks and possibly bodily injury result from this, so when will this road be fixed and who will pay for it?
From Charles Town:
Can our mayor please explain why there are no African-American police officers in our city?
From Morgan County:
This is a hoot. Democrats cry foul when Obama gets blamed for high gas prices, but they praise him when they fall fractionally. The Hedgesville caller thinks thanks are in order for $3.70-per-gallon gas. Well hold your gratitude until the price falls under $1.75 a gallon, that's what it was when he moved into the White House. Under his watch it increased by 130 percent and is now at plus 112 percent. And you want me to thank him for that?
From Martinsburg:
Congratulations to the Hedgesville Democrat who does not get a welfare check and/or food stamps and pays for his/her cellphone. You are what I would consider a true "1 percenter."
From Charles Town:
Kudos to the state road for putting the WVs on the W.Va. 9 bypass very nice. Good job!
From Hedgesville:
George Carlin said it best: "Conservatives say if you don't give the rich more money, they will lose their incentive to invest. As for the poor, they tell us they've lost all incentive because we've given them too much money." So clearly the best policy is to continue taking money from the poor and giving it to the rich, so the rich can continue to create jobs (minimum wage jobs for the poor). They are the job creators, after all. Just look at how well it's been working since 2000!
From Bunker Hill:
Even though Reagan raised the debt ceiling 18 times in eight years, and George Bush raised it 10 times in eight years, and even though raising the debt ceiling has never been an issue in all of American history until President Obama took office, and even though the bulk of the current deficit was caused by Bush's unpaid-for wars and huge tax breaks for the rich, now it's a problem!

To the Editor.—
Langford and associates1 have conclusively demonstrated that dietary sodium restriction and weight reduction in the obese patient delay the return of hypertension after discontinuation of medication following five years of controlled blood pressure. The lack of necessity for daily lifelong therapy (the concept of intermittent rather than continuous therapy) gives the patient with mild hypertension a much brighter outlook. It not only spares him the possibility of potential harmful side effects and saves money, but also provides him with objective evidence of his improvement.Why wait for five years to discontinue therapy? Recent data have shown that controlling the blood pressure for six months permitted discontinuation of therapy with chlorthalidone in 36 (53%) of 67 patients with mild hypertension.2 These patients were specifically asked not to change their dietary habits so the effect of discontinuing medication on the blood pressure could better be evaluated.

Lomography is thrilled to announce its first partnership with V&S Absolut Spirits – the highly esteemed Swedish company that has produced Absolut Vodka since 1979. For many years, Absolut advertising campaigns have been famous for their creativity and innovation. They've worked with a wide range of highly talented artists such as Andy Warhol – the king of Pop Art, and Laurence Gartel – the Digital Art pioneer. This year, the Lomographic Society was invited by Absolut to participate in a unique new project. Using the concepts of public art and group participation (just like Warhol!), the Absolut Lomo project will mobilize the creative input of the global Lomographic community.
As one might expect, the word ABSOLUT means "absolute" in Swedish – and is defined as "the top-notch", or "a personal favorite". The "absolute" is free from any limitation or condition, and is philosophically complete in itself.
Thus, the buzzwords for this challenge read as such: Capture your vision of Absolut through one or a series of excellent Lomographic camera images and join the worldwide pool of Absolut Lomo participants. We want to see YOUR vision of what you consider to be ABSOLUT. Devote yourself wholly to visual perception, or work from the wide field of inspiration that comes from the phenomena of your experienced world. You can read much more about this world of Absolut Lomo on www.AbsolutLomo.com.
A wise person once said that a Lomo camera is a natural extension of your hand and your eyes. As it must be carried on your person at all times, it quickly takes on the feeling of a somewhat clunky but quite stylish sixth finger. And - as it is most effectively used to capture all of the stimulating moments in life that appear in front of your face - it might as well serve as the part of your eyes and your brain that perceives all which is photogenic, interesting, crazy, and absolutely beautiful.
We hereby invite you to harness the great power of this hand-eye-mind-Lomo connection and apply it against four categories - all related to your vision of "Absolut" themes. Just as the "Absolut Lomo" campaign presents six compelling artists capturing their love and creations through a Lomo lens, we want YOU to show us a range of wonderful Absolut themes from your own perspective. Read all about and see the work of Paulina Magos/Mexico, James Marshall (Dalek) /USA, Huang Yan/ China, Stella Mouratidi /Greece, Oliver, Germany and Sascha Lilic /United Kingdom here:
So, get involved, be creative, be relentless, and think way outside of the box.

The 17th annual Castaic Town Council 5K Run/Walk at Castaic Lake Sunday drew nearly 500 running enthusiasts, their families and friends for a day of fun in the sun – complete with pancakes – to raise funds for local schools, clubs and organizations.
First to cross the 5K finish line was Joel Givens of Valencia with a time of 18 minutes, 49 seconds and 5 tenths of a second.
Bryce Brauneisen secured second place with a time of 19:28:3.
Just a few paces behind him was 9-year-old Jaden Wiley at 20:04:6.
Givens and Wiley collapsed at the finish line, each with his respective family of fellow running enthusiasts.
Givens hugged his son Brennan, 5, who wore bib number 950, and 4-year-old daughter Faith, in bib 949, then looked over at Jaden's parents and said: "Your son is a talented runner."
Jaden ran with his father, Bob, and his sister, Brielle, age 11.
Scores of people turned out for the fundraising event, said organizer Flo Lawrence.
"The is the best of what we do as a nation," he said reflecting on the spirit of Sunday's runners and the spirit of those who took part in the recent ill-fated Boston Marathon.
"It's exciting to see that our spirit isn't broken," he said. "We brought community and family together, friends and fitness together, fellowship and laughter together."
A few of Sunday's runners got a little more than they bargained for when someone set up one of the route signs incorrectly.
"Someone had turned the sign around on the course," Lawrence said.
"And some runners ended up doing three and half kilometers when others did one (kilometer), So we're giving special medals to those people," he said.
"But, despite all that, everyone had a good time."
Sunday's races included a 10-mile run and a 1K for the kids. Funds raised go to local schools and service organizations through the Castaic Area Town Council.

Since last summer, just after the Europeans began to "print" money to buy the Sovereign Debt that nobody else would buy, the markets have been on a slow, steady uptrend. I've enjoyed the "10 days up, 10 days flat and 2 days of terror" each and every month. But we may now see that changing.
We already know from past experience that each year's third and fourth quarters are marked by a pickup in economic activity leading up to the holiday season. The pickup is heralded each year as a bone-fide economic recovery. Then, in each year, the first quarter severely disappoints on the earnings and growth front. It has been our pattern for the past four years and the markets are only to happy to fall for it, hook, line & sinker.
But the last day/first day of the year witnessed an giant "fuck you" to everyone. The Dow gained "only" 300 points but the SPX gained 60 points and the Nasdaq gained 150 points. In just two trading days. If you were short: fucked. If you were flat: fucked. If you were trying to buy: fucked. Only the perennially long, through thick and thin derived benefit. And why not? As long as markets go up, there are no real problems that will have to be dealt with. That is the gospel truth. Hallelujah!
Was the market movement based solely on the Fiscal Cliff bullshit? Does it matter if it is "fixed" or not? The government will tell the markets what they demand to hear. Nothing more, nothing less. Now they are talking about a "trillion dollar coin" to fix our ills. This is tanenmount to the government simply printing money for its needs. I was afraid that one day the Congress would realize that the FED was printing all the money that banks and the government need and they would formally ask to get rid of all the "middle men" and take the cash directly. Hell, its easier than passing tax reform or spending cuts!
And the Capital Markets? They couldn't give a shit. All anyone cares about is "price". The charts stay bullish so buy. This is exactly what the conspiracy-derived "Presidents Working Group" has been busy with each and every morning, pre-market.
But with the latest "blink-and-you-miss-it" pop in markets to multi-year highs, the tone has seemed to change, at least for the moment. Perhaps each month will now have "10 days down, 10 days flat and 2 days of orgiastic short-busting upside".
Never mind that earnings will suck. Never mind the government disfunction. Never mind anything. Just count on at least $85 billion per month to keep the ball in the air and new all time highs just around the corner.
6 Responses to "Hot to Trot…"
it took them five years to figure out that they only needed 85 bill a month to keep the ball rolling. but they had to give aig 185 bill so there wouldn't be rioting, as old hank said. hey, you forgot one more thing,the cherry on top of the bullshit sundae,paul krugman taking over geitners' post. god i cant wait for the shit to hit the fan.
Chauncey Gardiner
Hi Scott. Thanks. I appreciate and share your frustration. Even after all that has occurred, can't resist thoughts of an Island pattern though. Although chart patterns have been rendered fairly meaningless over the past several years, and no chart pattern is definitive until it is completed, it would seem that there is some likelihood that they (and we) have finally reached Geithner's Isle regardless of whether the QE4 Cash is mainlined:
So with all due respect to the creator of the lyrics to the theme song for the TV series "Gilligan's Isle" (and the soon to be departing Treasury secretary):
"The weather started getting rough,
The tiny ship was tossed.
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Minnow would be lost.
The Minnow would be lost.
The ship set ground on the shore
Of this uncharted desert isle
With Geithner,
The Skipper too.
The billionaire
And his wife,
The movie star,
The professor and Mary Ann,
Here on Geithner's Isle.
So this is the tale of our castaways,
They're here for a long long time.
They'll have to make the best of things,
It's an uphill climb."
… of course, there is a high probability that I'm wrong. After all, why wouldn't QE4 lead to a similar outcome as that of earlier instances?
when they finally decide to unleash,"all this PRINTED money", that was supposedly printed by the fed, onto the streets then we'll see the consequences. if anyone has noticed, when you go to the bank and get some coin, and the teller gives you some crisp one dollar bills, look at the dates.i'm still getting 2009 dates……….. heres one for ya chauncey,how bout steely dans'," the royal scam". and were all part of it.
The Fed prints their money by changing a number in a computer balance sheet. That isn't really tied to the minting of bills. At least it wasn't pre-platinum coin era.
but were not in 2009 anymore toto.
Uncertain if this coulda bee n a sermon at a combly lecturn or a prophet rightly stating facts on a boulevard: here's a Ben F. (Not Ben B.).

Featured Golf News
New Golf Resort Coming to County Cork, Ireland
XCES Projects, an International Property development consortium, has announced plans for a 200 million tourism project located on a 650-acre site near Kinsale, County Cork in Ireland. The Kinsale Harbour Resort is a collaboration between Cork-based XCES Projects, Hyatt International and PGA Golf Management. It will be Irelands first integrated tourism complex and will include:
· A 200-room Hyatt Hotel and Holiday resort lodge with conference facilities and a spa;
· An 18-hole, 260-acre golf course capable of hosting major events. The course has been designed by European Golf Design, a joint venture between the European Tour & IMG;
· Clubhouse and golf academy;
·Indoor-outdoor equestrian complex and a 500-seat indoor arena capable of hosting large events.
PGA Golf Management will operate, maintain and promote all golf-related facilities, and oversee the clubhouse operations and golf academy. Hyatt will operate the resort, equestrian facility and food and beverage services. The resort will create an initial 350 full-time positions, with an estimated 450 indirect jobs to be created as a direct result of the project. Another 300 jobs will be involved in the three-year construction phase.
Welcoming the announcement, Minister Martin said, This proposed investment is a major boost for tourism in the southern region and I welcome the jobs that will flow from it.
We are delighted to attract such world-class partners, said Carlos DAvilez, director of XCES Projects. Hyatt International is a high-end operator with a fantastic record in resort management and there are no better partners in golf than PGA Golf Management. The concept behind creation of the project was to produce a world-class integrated resort destination, which would complement and reinvigorate the Kinsale area and Cork County Tourism.
Also commenting on the project was David Dean, senior management executive of PGA Golf Management. The Kinsale Harbour Resort will not only be a market leading addition to the economy of Kinsale and Cork County, but will become one of the finest and most sought-after golf resort experiences in Europe.
The unique combination of resort facilities, location and headland setting of the golf course will be stunning, and PGA Golf Management is delighted to be responsible for managing the golf facilities. We are looking forward to working with XCES Projects, Hyatt International and European Golf Design in making the resort a success, Dean concluded.
Michael Shindler, senior vice president of development for Hyatt International, added, "We have brought our management and brand to many beautiful destinations around the world, but none more spectacular than the Kinsale Harbour Resort project. We will be thrilled to offer Hyatt's services to the multinational companies in Cork, and we will add to the world-class food and beverage facilities for which Kinsale is widely known."
The golf course has been designed to follow the existing contours of the site, which was previously Kinsales racecourse. Its also reputed to be the site of one of the oldest golf courses in Ireland.
The project has been designed by architect Henry J. Lyons to blend in with the local environment and landscape. There will be a net gain in open space with the existing gorse buffer zone along the shore to be extended. The countryside access will be retained and enhanced with a new public walkway along the boundary of the site overlooking the sea.

WESTFIELD – Walking through her 40-year-old garden of "weird" plants, Susan Erickson points out perennials and annuals explaining the history and growth patterns of each in her haven on "a postage stamp in downtown."
Erickson's garden and that of her next-door neighbor, Diane Perrott, as well as three others, will be among those featured on the 15th Annual Grandmother's Garden Tour to benefit the preservation, maintenance and improvement of the historic Grandmothers' Garden and Chauncey Allen Park.
Erickson began gardening 50 years ago when her grandmother and aunt, both lifelong gardeners, asked her if she wanted a small plot of her own to plant.
"My grandmother had a fabulous garden with beautiful, rich dirt," she recalled. "When I was 18 she asked me if I wanted a little hunk. It was the 1960s, and I wanted to plant weird flowers."
That penchant for the unusual has remained with Erickson throughout her gardening exploits, and hard-to-come-by plants grace the fecund garden behind her home on Brookline Avenue. Her tastes lean toward dark plants with one garden area dedicated to her favorite holiday – Halloween.
"I bought this house 40 years ago, and the garden grew with the house," Erickson said. "We had 18 scruffy pines in the back, and I wanted sun, so my husband took down the trees and made walkways and mounds and a rock garden and a raised bed using different materials."
The garden is marked by a small pond and walkways that wind around vibrant and highly fragrant plants with names like fellopia, nemesia, malva sylvestrina and gas plant, a bush that carries the scent of lemons and can live 100 years.
"It keeps coming back every year tried and true," Erickson said.
While she prefers perennial plants, one of her favorite annuals is a variety of cosmos known as a chocolate cosmos that carries with it the rich scent of bittersweet chocolate so true to the candy one is almost tempted to take a bite from it.
"Doesn't that smell great," she said.
Leslie Lambert, an official with the Grandmothers Garden tour, said that when deciding which gardens will be featured on the tour, event committee members look for homes close to one another and ones that include a variety of gardens.
"It's more about the aesthetics," she noted. "We want people to walk through and be inspired by the outdoors and gardening."
The gala benefit weekend, Lambert said, will kick-off Friday with a garden party and silent auction from 6 until 8 p.m. "in our own Southwick gardens," on Honey Pot Road, followed by the private garden tours on Saturday and Sunday.
"On Friday, the music of Curran & Company will sweeten the evening air, and guests will stroll through perennial borders and gentle woodlands enjoying friendship, conversation and gourmet summer refreshments," she noted.
On Saturday and Sunday, the garden tour starts at 9 a.m. at Grandmothers Garden on Smith Avenue where participants will be given their tickets and booklets, which will be stamped at each garden they visit. The tour, which will be held rain or shine, will conclude at 4 p.m.
Tickets for the garden tour are $20 per person ($15 for senior citizens), while tickets for the garden party are $45 per person. Combined tickets for the garden party and tour are $60 per person.
For more information, please contact Sandy or Bob Watkins at 569-5562 or Bernadette Toomey at 562-9404, or send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
The Russian ultranationalists have taken control and are kicking ass. As Uncle Sam's finest, you have to step in and save the day !
That's about the idea behind Ghost Recon, the latest tactical shooter coming from Red Storm Entertainment.
Russian ultranationalists have taken control over Russia and are invading ex-Soviet Union states like Ukraine and such. Since those states don't have much intelligence, your squad of "Ghosts" has to come in and get rid of the Red Terror and save democracy.
The game itself is pretty straight-forward. You have to eliminate enemies, rescue pilots, engage on hostile forces or protect friendly neighbourhoods in 15 single player missions (each mission consisting of various sub-missions)
You'll have plenty of realistic weapons to choose from but the enemy doesn't always give you a fair chance. In the third mission for instance you have to protect your HQ with some bazooka's while they're coming at you with a whole army including tanks. No sir, nobody ever said Ghost Recon is an easy game 🙂
For every mission you have to assemble a team and arm them (you can choose to have them be auto-assembled) after you had a nice briefing on what needs to be done. Once you've set up your men you start the mission.
During the mission you've got 3 people under your command and make sure you don't go walking straight to the combat field unless you want to be sure of a sudden death. Tactics is the keyword here.
That means of course hiding behind trees, trying to find where the enemy is located and then crawl into firing range to give them that nice clean headshot for an instant kill.
The single player part of the game has some nice edges; you can take control of each character at any time but you can also have them giving you cover while you start doing most of the killing.
When you're not in control of a character, he'll follow you whereever you go but that can sometimes be a pain in the ass. They don't always understand that you turn around and want to go the other way so they'll just stand there in your way. Of course they're not complete idiots so if you're under fire; you'll hear them shooting at the enemy and even kill one from time to time while you're busy doing other "important stuff".
When your character dies, you'll automatically switch to another team member which gives you the opportunity to know where your enemy is located and kill the bitch instantly. If that other team member is close to you of course. Sometimes your teammate will be still at the base, making that you'll have to snipe all the way back to where you were before which can be pretty annoying.
The controls and main hud of the screen are pretty straight-forward and easy to use although the indicator on where your enemies are located isn't always of much use (when the enemy is near, it will show red in the middle, being of no use at all)
Unlike in Operation Flashpoint, however, I never got killed without knowing where the enemy was which I think is a great improvement. There's nothing I hate more than getting killed without knowing who killed me and where he is (which was often the problem in Flashpoint).
The graphics are very clear and detailed although you need a pretty heavy machine if you want to turn on all details.
The sound is realistic with birds whistling in the calm summer afternoon until you of course get shot at. Then the birds will fly away and probably get shot by some hunter or something, the main thing is that after the shooting starts you don't hear any birds anymore.
If you can't get enough of Ghost Recon, you can also try playing it in multiplayer where 5 big multiplayer maps of up to 400m² will allow you to snipe around killing up to 35 other players that are doing the same (maximum 36 players at the same time). Luckily both LAN and internet play are supported so even if you don't have broadband internet, you'll still be able to set up a small network with all your friend and start killing each other.
If you think even that isn't enough, you can also view replays of your actions after you're killed. Nothing better than to see yourself get killed or succeed greatly in a mission, right ?
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon is one of the best tactical first person shooters I've ever seen and in my opinion it even surpassess Operation:Flashpoint. It will be hard to find better.

L.A. Lakers star Kobe Bryant is one of the best players in the NBA, but there is one opponent he goes a little easy on: President Barack Obama.
Bryant, who has played some games against the commander-in-chief at the White House, says Obama is "very, very good" on the basketball court, but Bryant was tentative about going full-out during their competitions.
"The thing that's interesting is that if he makes a nice move, you kind of catch yourself," Bryant tells Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show Friday. "I'm going to steal the ball from him. Then all the sudden, I start peeking around looking for the CIA. I say, you know, I should just let him go."
DeGeneres agrees, advising Bryant, "Let him win."
But Bryant says he couldn't hold back when it came to some harmless trash-talking on the court – but he swears he didn't start it.
"He talks a lot of trash," Bryant says of Obama. "You know he's from Chicago – the Bulls through and through. He always talks Bulls this, the Bulls that. I'm like, my goodness. Can I talk trash to the President?"
Asked if he did indeed trash-talk right back, Bryant says, "Of course I did. I couldn't help it."

About Monique
Monique finally learned to knit in the summer of 2010 when she signed up for a class. Her grandmother had tried to teach her (no luck) and her college roommates had tried to teach her (also no luck). Paying for a class seemed to finally make something click because by the end of the summer the teacher was showing her advanced techniques and within 2 years she was designing her own patterns.
With a toddler in tow, running a web design company from home became a bit of a handful especially when said toddler decided that he really liked to bang on keyboards. So Monique decided to start selling her patterns and the rest is history.
Monique has been cross-stitching and sewing since age 3. While she is a great cross-stitcher, her sewing skills hover more around adequate. She also enjoys skiing, dancing, training for her first marathon and playing with her young son, husband and two cats.
About Our Patterns
Our patterns are all knit with plant or synthetic fibers for one simple reason Monique is allergic to wool! It drove her nuts when she first started knitting that all the cool patterns were knit with wool and it was often difficult to find a yarn that would drape the same (ever knit a cotton sweater? You know what we mean!).
A simple but unusual pattern that you can easily complete in a weekend. It's a lovely little handkerchief with a daisy-stitch border.
The daisy stitch can be frustrating at first until you get the hang of it, but stick with it! The stitch gives a beautiful edge and is something you'll want to work with in the future.
Use a stretchy plant-based yarn such as Queensland Collection's Sugar Rush. The soft sugar cane viscose is stretchy enough to make the daisy stitch easy and also soft enough to make handkerchief usage practical.

Knowing when to give up
There's been a long silence from this blog. My latest project hasn't been going all that well. It's Vogue 8825. I fell in love with the design when it came out: the sleeves! I didn't initially realize it was a pattern for knits so decided to make it up in the electric blue chiffon I […]

I am calling in reference to Nidia Lopez, and everyone else is writing in letters. I don't feel Mr. King is trying to deny the first Latino councilwoman, because Mariano Vega is on the council and he is Latino, but she is wrong! You are not supposed to be registered to vote in two different states, and if you are registered in Florida and you live in New Jersey, why are you cheating the system by getting tax rebates? It is wrong! Face up to it! Mr. King is not a sore loser, he just wants what is right for Jersey City. You have to look at history. Mayor Healy just loves crooked people, the deputy mayor who forgot to pay his car lease bills. Don't pick on Mr. King, he is doing the right thing. Open your eyes!
Dangerous to use bridge
I am calling with a complaint about the roadway on the Route 7 Wittpenn bridge. It is filled with nothing but potholes. It is very dangerous, it causes accidents, and who pays for the broken tires and broken rims? The state should reimburse people. Again, it is a horrible, dangerous road to drive on.
Won't be paid for weeks
This is directed toward the Parks and Recreation people. My son is a counselor at one of the day camps for the summer. We just found out that they won't be getting paid until July 24. What is going on here? They all took that job so that they could have a few dollars of spending money, only to find out that they are working a whole month without getting paid. I am sure I am not the only parent upset about this. I hope that this will not be repeated next year.
Healy broke tax promise
This is in regards to the 11.25 percent tax hike in Jersey City. I am a resident and a homeowner. I thought I heard a quote from Healy that there would be no tax raise when he was running for re-election. I thought he said that he would stabilize the taxes. I guess that he and everyone else that made these promises have broken them. Nothing is true anymore these days. And as for the council, I am sure that if Mr. King had won the Ward C seat, there would have been two "no" votes and the rest would have been "yes." I believe that Mr. King is not one of the cronies that belongs to the elite team, and Steve is the same way because he voted "no" on the tax hike. I think that, to add to the situation, Nidia Lopez should step down. I mean what is going on in the papers is a sin and the taxpayers are going to have the pay for a lawyer for this.
Healy is a flying eagle
I must advise the Political Insider that the comment regarding a "lame duck" mayor, as attributed by the Insider, is wrong. As per state statute, a "lame duck" official would be one within the last year of office and who has made a statement he or she is not running again for that office. I must state that our mayor, Jerramiah T. Healy, is no "lame duck," but he certainly is a flying eagle who was elected by a mandate of the people of this fine city.
EDITOR'S NOTE: In responding to the complaint, the Political Insider said: "Quack."
Give Gatti respect, mayor
To Jerramiah Healy: When Arturo Gatti was champion, you never acknowledged him as the pride of Jersey City. Now in death, give him the respect and tribute he most definitely deserves. Honor him. Rest in peace, champ.
Yes, follow the money
I was just reading the article in The Jersey Journal where the government says, "show me the money" on the former MOT military base. I feel that this Attorney Patella, who works for the city, is wrong. I feel that the government should know where the money is going. We want to make sure that the money doesn't wind up in the pockets of politicians or campaign contributions. We don't want politicians walking away millionaires when they retire.
Heights hurting, taxes up
Thanks to Jerramiah Healy for this tax raise. I am a senior citizen with a fixed income. Jersey City Heights is going to the dogs. This tax raise is ridiculous. You have people not taking care of their property, and 10 or 15 people living in a one-family or two-family home. This is supposed to make Jersey City Heights beautiful, and we pay all these taxes. It is uncalled for.

Portsmouth Guildhall

Portsmouth Guildhall is the biggest wedding, events and conference venue in the Hampshire city of Portsmouth, England. It has been managed by the Portsmouth Cultural Trust,[1] registered Charity number 1153358, since April 2011.
The building, completed in 1890,[2] was designed in the neo-classical style by architect William Hill, who was responsible for the design of Bolton Town Hall. Local architect Charles Bevis, in partnership with Hill, directed the construction. Hill died before the building was completed and Bevis added to the design. The building was originally the town hall, but on 21 April 1926 Portsmouth was raised to the status of a city and the town hall was renamed the Guildhall. On 10 January 1941, during the Second World War, it was hit by incendiary bombs and gutted. The interior and roof were destroyed, with just the outer walls and tower remaining, albeit fire-damaged. It was rebuilt after the war at a cost of £1.5 million, using war compensation funds, and on 8 June 1959 Her Majesty the Queen performed the re-opening ceremony. The interior was altered from the original and the external style is missing much of its detail, especially the dome above the clock and the finials atop the balustrades around the roof.
There are five bells in its bell tower known as the Pompey Chimes. The biggest bell is named after Queen Victoria and is inscribed with her name.[3] The remaining four were named by public poll and Nelson, Victory and John Pounds[4] The official naming was stalled due to the popularity of the vote for Harry Redknapp,[5] the former Portsmouth Football Club manager who departed the club shortly before voting commenced. Foul play was suspected by the council who ran the vote and the bells have remained unnamed.[6]
The Pompey Chimes fell silent in 2003 when the bell tower was found to be in need of restoration from the corrosive nature of salt in the air.[7] The work was carried out by Smith of Derby Group, the restoration project finishing in time for Queen Elizabeth's visit to Portsmouth in 2009 to mark the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings.[8]
The Guildhall has a standing capacity of up to 2,500 [9] for concerts, and can accommodate 10 to 500 people for weddings or banquets. Other facilities include a Cafe, art galleries, meeting rooms for hire and a business lounge on the first floor. It is in the city centre close to the Portsmouth and Southsea railway station.

The Tonight show taping was going well last October 3, and singer Delia Reese had never felt better. "Then I hit a horrendous note—the flattest I've ever sung," she recalls. "My left knee buckled and I fell to the floor." Bandleader Doc Severinsen and substitute host Richard Dawson rushed to her aid, and a doctor came onstage from the audience. "I never lost consciousness, but I wasn't in control," Delia remembers. Attendants who carried her to an ambulance heard her pleading, "Lord, help me. God, help me."
The initial prognosis was grim. "For the first 36 to 48 hours she hovered near death," says her physician, Dr. Jack Wohlstadter. Doctors couldn't be sure what had happened, and Delia, 48, was terrified by their uncertainty. Not until a week later did an arteriogram reveal that an aneurysm had ruptured in the right side of her brain. Two others, on the left side, lay near her optic nerve and threatened her vision. "Even if an operation were successful," she remembers being told, "I could have ended up as a vegetable."
Fearful that she might never sing again, Delia drew on her Baptist faith to fight back. "I started saying, 'In the name of Jesus Christ I am healed,' and I kept saying it a thousand times a day." Two weeks later she traveled to London, Ontario, where Dr. Charles Drake had recently designed a new type of surgical clip to protect a patient's optic nerve during neurosurgery. Because he had not yet used it, however, he hesitated to try it on Delia. Only at the last minute did he go ahead. "Now he says it was just a second thought," notes his patient with a throaty laugh. "I say it was God telling him, 'Use it.' "
Her progress after two operations was remarkable. Within five weeks she was back taping her Campbell's soup commercials. In January she resumed her supper club rounds at Florida's Disney World. "Coming back to an audience was the best thing that ever happened to me," she says. "I shouldn't have taken the money, but I did."
The daughter of a Detroit steelworker, Delia first sang professionally at the age of 6, when she made $5 a week with a church choir on radio. Later she planned to become a psychiatrist, but dropped out of Wayne State University when her mother died of a cerebral hemorrhage. Turning to show business, she was voted "Most Promising Girl Singer of 1957" by Billboard and Variety. Since then she has appeared in concert, cabarets and movies, had her own syndicated TV talk show, and played a no-nonsense landlady on the NBC series Chico and the Man.
Twice married and divorced, Delia shares a spacious Bel Air mansion with her daughter, Delia, 20, who is studying art history at UCLA. A frequent visitor is Dr. James Barger, 39, a Los Angeles psychiatrist and an old family friend whom she helped educate and legally adopted 15 years ago. There is talk of a new romantic interest she met in New York, but Delia will say no more about him. "We have a nice calm relationship," she says, "and I'd hate to do anything that might send it askew." As for her health, she frets more about her weight, which she once battled with periodic starvation diets, than about her near-fatal collapse and its aftermath. "I've had long hair and short hair and braids, and so what?" she exclaims, alluding to the growing-out Afro that barely covers her scars. "I feel blessed, and I don't think I should hide the blessing."
