Can cats have mint?
My kitten loves to chew on our toothbrushes and now will lick the sink after I spit mouthwash in it. Is the mint harmful? Is toothpaste harmful?

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
An actual mint plant isn't toxic to cats (it's a close relative to catnip, although typically cats don't go for actual mint) but if your toothpaste or mouthwash contain any actual mint it's probably in the form of very concentrated essential oil which is a bit more of a grey area, and more importantly they probably contain any of a number of toxic substances like flouride, alcohol, sulfates, peroxide, triclosan, xylitol (toxic when swallowed by pets, not people)etc. These products typically have warning labels for people not to swallow them, so it should go without saying they aren't safe for feline consumption.
Since you know Harry is excited by the smell of your toothpaste and mouthwash please be sure to give the sink a quick rinse off when you're done with your oral hygiene- keeps your sink cleaner anyway. As for your poor toothbrush, be sure to rinse it thoroughly after you use it and if he still likes to chew on it look into getting a cover for it and let Harry have an old one.

Celtics-Warriors Game Blog: Second Quarter
|11.26.08 at 6:13 pm ET
At the half … Warriors 67 , Celtics 54
SECOND HALF WRAP: So how did this happen?
- To start, the Celtics only hit 5 field goals in the entire second quarter compared to the Warriors 12.
- Garnett was scoreless in the second, Ray Allen scored three, and Pierce had two.
- Maggette scored 11 while Jackson added six.
- The Warriors hit two free throws in the first quarter and 14 in the second.
- The Celtics, on the other hand, made 7 in the first and just 8 in the second.
- 67 first half points is the most given up by the Celtics since March 14, 2005 against the Charlotte Bobcats. They won the game 119-110.
– Another T, this time for Doc Rivers. The Celtics are leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the league in technicals … and Doc's still heated.
– Maggette is flat out ignoring Ray Allen and seeing only the basket in this quarter. He scored 11 second quarter points before getting a rest with 3:30 to go in the half. There's no let up for the Celtics, though. Stephen Jackson has 18 points so far and is attacking the hoop possession after possession.
– At the timeout, the Warriors have outscored the Celtics 15-8 six minutes into the second quarter. The game is tied 43-43, led by six points in as many minutes from Maggette. The Warriors have also forced three turnovers while committing none.
– KG vs. Ronny Turiaf … I feel like I'm at the NBA Finals again.
– If Eddie House and Corey Maggette were to get tangled on the court, who do you think would come up on the winning end? Surprisingly, it was House who dealt a hard blow to Maggette under the Warriors basket. (No hard feelings, he checked to make sure Maggette was ok.) The Warriors won't underestimate the size of EHouse.
– Rather than leave a starter on the court, Doc's going with Scal again in the second unit. He's on the court with Leon Powe, Tony Allen, Glen Davis, and Eddie House. The Warriors have Corey Maggette, Andris Biedrins, Kelenna Azubuike, C.J. Watson, and Ronny Turiaf.
– One thing that jumped out in the first quarter was how undersized the Warriors looked next to the Celtics. Kendrick Perkins vs. Brandan Wright? Perk's got 75 pounds on him. So I crunched the numbers to compare the starting lineups … Celtics: 6'7, 230.2 lbs, Warriors: 6'8, 215.6 lbs. May not seem like a big difference but it sure translates into the Celtics big men doing a lot of banging around in the paint.
– The Golden State Warriors allow the second most points in the league (106 ppg), and tonight it's easy to see why. The Celtics are on pace to score 70 points in the first half alone after aggressively attacking the paint in the first quarter. Let's see if they run up the scoreboard in the second quarter …

European intel, Pakistani diplomat: Obama's exaggerating the terror plot for political gain
posted at 5:52 pm on October 7, 2010 by Allahpundit
Hey, remember when questioning the timing of terror plots was cool?
A US terror alert issued this week about al-Qaida plots to attack targets in western Europe was politically motivated and not based on credible new information, senior Pakistani diplomats and European intelligence officials have told the Guardian…
Dismissing claims of a developed, co-ordinated plot aimed at Britain, France and Germany, European intelligence officials also pointed the finger at the US, and specifically at the White House. "To stitch together [the terror plot claims] in a seamless narrative is nonsensical," said one well-placed official.
While Abdul Jabbar, a Briton, and others killed by an American drone strike on 8 September in North Waziristan, in Pakistan's tribal areas, were heard discussing co-ordinated plots, including possible "commando-style" attacks on prominent buildings and tourist sites in European capitals, security and intelligence officials said the plots were nowhere near fruition…
By making it clear that the US drone strikes were pre-emptive, and were not in any way combating an imminent threat, European officials raised fresh questions – this time directly involving a British national – about the legality of the attacks, which could be viewed as assassinations.
You'll notice that I haven't quoted the Pakistani diplomat in the excerpt even though he goes so far as to accuse The One of angling for advantage in the midterms by hyping this threat. Why not? Read today's WSJ piece about Pakistani intelligence encouraging the Taliban to keep killing American soldiers and you'll understand. After nine years of them playing a double game to hold India in check, propping up jihadist proxies in Afghanistan on the one hand while gladhanding the United States about being an ally in the war on terror on the other, it's pure madness to trust anything that anyone in the Pakistani government says. Hasan, the diplomat quoted in the piece, actually has the balls to say that if we have information on jihadis, we should hand it over to Pakistan and they'll go after them — even though Petraeus has been begging them for months to do just that in North Waziristan. In fact, that was one of the key reasons identified by the Times a few weeks ago for the new CIA drone bombardment in the tribal areas. Pakistan won't act, so we have to. And before too long, we may have to send special forces across the border to do the job that they won't do. The reason Pakistani diplomats are backbiting Obama now is precisely because he did act (says Hasan of the CIA campaign, it's "set the country on fire"), so now they're retaliating with conspiratorial hints about bogus terror threats being trumped up for political gain. They're pure scum. I don't believe a word out of their mouths.
The allegations from European counterterror officials are more credible, but then they also have a motive to say that the threat's exaggerated, don't they? Remember, ABC reported last week that the jihadi operatives in the plot could already be in place and ready to attack; just this afternoon, there's a new story out that no fewer than 45 terrorists are being tracked in Germany and that new information is corroborating reports of a plot:
US and German officials said … Siddiqui's claims have been verified by a second captured German terror recruit and "other sources" that officials were reluctant to describe in detail for fear of compromising law enforcement operations…
"There are several different sources, all confirming that there are plots afoot by al Qaeda central, that is to say the Osama bin Laden organization in Pakistan, to do attacks in Europe," said Dick Clarke, a former White House national security official and now an ABC News consultant. "Now they don't have anything that points to the United States yet, but if there were to be simultaneous attacks in Europe, it's at least possible there would be a simultaneous attack in the United States as well."…
Officials in Germany and the United States said they still did not have a specific date of the timing of the plot, and US officials say they believe the plot's "trigger date" may have been delayed because of the media coverage and government travel alerts.
So we have a large, credible plot that's hugely embarrassing to European intelligence given that no one's quite sure how big it'll get and how many red flags they might have missed in the process. Is it really a surprise that they'd grumble to the Guardian about how it's not a big deal and hardly imminent and everything's cool, etc etc? They're covering their own asses for not doing more to weed out homegrown jihadis in their midst while also using this opportunity to cast aspersions on the CIA drone campaign, which many Europeans regard as counterproductive and possibly illegal. It's politics, all right — from their side, at least as much as Obama's. But never mind all that. Let's use basic logic: Why oh why would Obama try to frighten voters before the midterms with news of a terror plot when (a) voters prefer Republicans when terrorism is front and center and (b) U.S. officials have said repeatedly that there's little evidence of any threat to America from this plot, only (so far) to Europe? Does that make any sense at all? This whole idea is one step away from Trutherism.

AudioSavings.com Order Disaster Order disaster after paying out and waiting for shipment Internet (New York) Internet (NY)
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I had ordered a head unit and speakers for my vehicle back on April 26th, 2013 from AudioSavings.com; a company I had used for the past three years for all my automotive needs for electronics. Once I had received my order, I opened the packaging and removed the speakers (which were in working order) and removed the box containing my head unit; which needless to say had been repackaged so many times it was held together by tape. The head unit I was suppoed to receive was supposed to be tested and in working condition as advertised by the company. Please view the unit decription below:
The unit I received was in the packaging with a used wiring harness, with NO Aux cable included and the unit itself was defective due to the USB port not working and the Aux port that was not working. [continued below]....
The response that I was given from "Anthony" was that he was sorry that the product was defective and that if I would go through the portion of removing the defective part and resending the product back to them, they would ship me a new product within 3-5 business days. I advised Anthony that was unacceptable, based on the company saying they tested the product and that they missed vital items in the packaging when it was sent and offered that they send me a new product and I would assume responsibility of being charged FULL MSRP of the product if they did not receive my return. Needless to say, the conversation went via email for roughly three days before I finally said I refuse to deal with this and will not deal with no longer having a product I just paid for.
On June 05, 2013 I decided to contact technical support due to my same defective unit that I have had installed in my vehicle since April. I had done more troubleshooting on the same product and figured out it was the faceplate of the head unit that had the issue. So, I had the pleasure of once again speaking with Anthony, where we went through the same discussion. "Send back the defective unit and we will send you out a replacement; I can understand from a consumer point of view the frustration, but our policy for the past 10 years is that you have to return the defective unit."
I requested at this point to speak with a supervisor, in which I was given a customer service Manager. To my dismay, it was the same conversation I had just had with Anthony. I explained that I had put in extreme amounts of time into AudioSavings.com, spend large sums of money even within the last month... but my experience was going to end and be ruined due to a $80 faceplate for a head unit???
I had a 45 min discussion with the Manager. I explained once again, I would have no issue returning the product once I received a new product. But after dealing with this issue since April, the defective unit being sent to me untested and used, and the product packaging missing the Aux cable; I refused to be held responsible for the companys' negligence and be forced to be without a product for even 24 hours. The manager explained the same way Anthony had explained... as a consumer, he understands completely that I would want to get the product, test it and make sure it is working, but there is no way that he is changing the policy. He also suggested that I could purchase a new product "at a discount" and have that shipped to return the old product; in which I told him he is out of his mind.
After this 45 min discussion, I advised it was a shame they would risk losing a long time customer over an $80 product. I still am waiting for this issue to be rectified.

Update: Still no response from customer service or resolution
SUBMITTED: Thursday, June 13, 2013POSTED: Thursday, June 13, 2013
Since the last posting of this report, I have contact the company four more times. I made sure once the intial report was filed that I did copy them on the email and advised that the report was created and I was looking for the issue to be rectified. I did more research and found two other reports which gave contact from the company and even information regarding the President of the company, Audiosavings.com/Audiosavings.net, whom I would love to have a conversation with.
After viewing and attempting contact; always seeming to reach "Anthony" while waiting 15 mins worth of hold music.. I asked to speak with the "Top Level Manager - Sam David" based on the exsisting report found here: http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/AudioSavings/Staten-Island-New-York-10314/AudioSavings-E-Distributors-Ripoff-Judah-from-AudioSavings-on-Ebay-Scam-artist-do-not-de-202268#comment_1
I get told the same thing. "oh, he is unavailable. I can take a message or try and help you." or "he just stepped away from his desk, but I can assist you." After my last conversation with Anthony and the customer service manager, I'm ready to speak to someone intelligent and new. HOPEFULLY, "Sammy" will view this one and make sure to respond.
Also, to my surprise, after doing more research on the company, I found a numerous amount of unsatified customers that have either been quickly refunded or just SOL for the product they were looking forward to. Of course, Audiosavings is quick to respond, "contact us. we are more than happy to fix any situation! 646-432-4971!!!!!!", But with my repeated contact to them, I have to say that they have failed HORRIBLY.
You can view the past 30 days of negative/neutral reviews here: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=audiosavings&iid=-1&de=off&items=25&which=negative&interval=30&_trkparms=negative_30
Of course, the company has a boatload of positive reviews. Some of which may be illegal 'padding' to keep their company in good standards with Ebay. I would love to see an investigation of that portion.
Will keep everyone updated. Hopefully Audiosavings is reminded of being a consumer-friendly company again or hopefully people realize as I have that a cheap price can usually leave a bad taste in your mouth when its followed by a poor customer service company.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Welcome letter from Susan G. Polansky, Head, Department of Modern Languages
Thank you for your interest in Carnegie Mellon University and the Department of Modern Languages (ML). At all levels of our program, students study language and gain awareness of diverse cultures through an approach that gives explicit attention to both content and skill-building. We provide students a wide range of opportunities to study languages and cultures, to enhance their knowledge and appreciation of traditions, customs, and issues while building their proficiency in understanding, speaking, reading, and writing. Through studying the languages and worlds of others, our students gain a valuable international perspective that enhances their life personally and professionally in our multicultural society.
Carnegie Mellon students' dedication to language study is noteworthy. In a survey of the Class of 2012, approximately 50 percent of graduating seniors had taken at least one language course during their undergraduate years here. We do not have a language requirement in place, although students can elect language to fulfill certain distribution requirements. Our statistics compare favorably with a national scene where there is much room for improvement, where, according to statistics published by the Modern Language Association in 2010, roughly 8.6 percent of undergraduate students in the United States study a foreign language at all during their college careers.
At introductory, intermediate, and 300 levels, we offer Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish. Beyond the 300 level, students may pursue a major in ML or complement their work in another field by choosing to double major or minor in a language. Majors and minors are available in Chinese Studies, French and Francophone Studies, German Studies, Hispanic Studies, and Japanese Studies, as well as Russian Studies. ML also collaborates with other departments of the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences to offer interdisciplinary majors and minors in Global Studies and Linguistics.
Our course offerings above intermediate level are rich and varied. Students may explore, for example, literary and cultural production from many points of view, cognitive studies related to language learning, research training with individual professors, and they may participate in community outreach programs such as language tutoring. Our students have shared that their language skills and intercultural expertise have increased their professional opportunities in this global marketplace of the 21st century.
Outside the classroom, there are numerous activities to promote language practice, for example, at language tables, coffee hours, and through visits with native speakers. ML also sponsors an annual international feature film series, run by the Modern Languages Student Advisory Council. The Modern Language Resource Center contains a wealth of multi-media materials that provide contextualized support for our different languages and technical assistance for our on-line courses in Chinese, French, and Spanish. Study abroad is strongly encouraged and supported by opportunities for ML and H&SS scholarship grants. International experience abroad adds an important dimension to our undergraduate offerings through summer, semester- or year-long programs in various parts of the world.
Our faculty members are all highly motivated and enthusiastically devoted to the mission of teaching. The department prides itself on offering relatively small class sizes, which enables us to devote considerable individual attention to student needs.
In addition, we offer two graduate programs: an intensive one-year master's program in Applied Second Language Acquisition that prepares students for a career in teaching, and a doctoral program in Applied Linguistics with a specialization in Second Language Acquisition. For us, this means that we focus our research primarily on the learning of languages other than English as the second language. Our graduates find ready employment in universities across the country or in other settings where they use their language education training and expertise.
We welcome your contact with the Department of Modern Languages. Please explore our website and let us know if we can provide you with additional information.

I have a zink pc1 in poly that I used for what little goose hunting we were doing in past years but we are gonna be going in hot and heavy on Canada's this year. This call is completely different from the pc1. For starters it takes a whole lot more air to run. When I first got i messed with the reed a bit as I couldn't get it to break over for a honk. I've got that squared away but now it'll air lock after a little sequence. I've been messing with the reed position like crazy and made sure it was installed with the middle bow going down but can't seem to get a decent "goosy" sound out of it without having the air lock issue. Can anybody give me some pointers here? Will this call attain a deeper sound or is it strictly for higher pitched clucking? Am I blowing wrong? I'm not sure what the deal is. If anyone has had lock up problems and can just let me know what they did to resolve them I would appreciate it. Any help or ideas is and are better than none.

Hello, i am a former Yasmin and Yaz user. I was on this pill for 10 years with no complications. I stopped the pill completely in December of 2011, and I am a nonsmoker. Am I still at increased risk of blood clots because of taking this pill even though, by the time of my surgery date, I will have been off of it for close to 6 months. WOuld it be smart to take a baby aspirin for a while? And if so when would be a good time to stop it before the surgery? Thank you!
Risk of Blood Clots and Brazilian Butt Lift? (Former Yaz User)
Doctor Answers 1
Birth Control Pills and Plastic Surgery such as Brazilian Butt Lift
Stopping birth control pills 6 months prior to surgery is helpful as you have done. If you have been on them more than a year without risk factors, I would still make you aware of the increased risk and recommend that you discuss this risk and ask advice from your gynecologist or PCP who prescribed this medication. Birth Control Pills and Plastic Surgery including the Brazilian Butt Lift is a common issue in most plastic surgeon's practices here in Orange County, California and you are correct that the major risk of taking Birth Control Pills (BCP) around the time of your surgery is that it increases the possibility that clots that can form in your veins (deep venous thrombosis) and can travel to your lungs (pulmonary embolus) which is very serious and can even cause death. For the general reader of this blog - The biggest risk is if you have your surgery within the first year of (re)starting BCP, and especially if you have risk factors for clotting - such as a genetic tendency, smoker, certain medical conditions, prior history of a clot, etc). In my own practice I would instruct you to not take BCP if within a year prior to your surgery and use an alternate method of birth control.

Six months after her wedding to the Nepali businessman, Koirala had posted her anguish on her Facebook account and said that she wanted to divorce her husband.
Friends and family stepped in and Koirala changed her mind. Later she clarified that she got carried away in a 'fit of rage.'
In 2001, Manisha, claiming that she's not ready for mariage, broke off her engagment to Australian ambassador to Nepal Crispin Conroy. Then, author Christopher Dorris and Koirala parted ways a couple of years later and finally, Koirala settled for Nepali businessman Samrat Dahal.
Dahal is seven years younger than Koirala.

SAVAGE council budget cuts for next year could be 50 per cent worse than feared and will lead to "serious implications" for council jobs and public services.
Flintshire Council was already braced to find £12 million more savings for the 2015-16 financial year.
But that sum could now rise to as much as £18 million for the 12 months from next April, according to the council leader.
While neighbouring Wrexham Council has announced a raft of public service cuts, including leisure centre closures, grass cutting reductions and outsourcing of libraries and comunity centre funding, Flintshire Council have thus far tried to cut costs largely from within.
But top councillors warned the bleak news regarding funding from the Welsh Government meant future public service cuts would be "inevitable".
The potential situation – which comes from Welsh Government funding settlement figures – has been described as "beyond the worst case scenario" and "the final nail in the coffin of local government".
Welsh Government indications show reductions to the Revenue Support Grant (RSG) budgets handed out to councils in the principality could be as much as 4.5 per cent – 3 per cent more than those previously projected.
The potential new figure could spell the end of some services, which Flintshire Council has so far managed to retain in the face of the £50m savings it is vying to make from this financial year through to 2019.
Cllr Aaron Shotton, leader of Flintshire Council, said: "If the reduction in RSG is as extreme as 4.5 per cent this would create a scenario for Flintshire and all Welsh councils that would go beyond the worst case scenario that we have been planning around as the difference between 1.5 per cent and 4.5 per cent in Flintshire is £6m.
"The potential impact is unthinkable. There are serious implications for services and jobs provided by Flintshire Council.
"Such a reduction would be a major challenge for this council which, thus far has done its utmost to protect frontline services by making efficiencies in the way it operates."
Flintshire Council has already cut senior management positions by almost half in an effort to make as many internal savings as possible in the current financial year.
That move alone will save £2.5m along with £10m of so called 'value for money' internal efficiencies.
So far moves like the hugely unpopular closure of Plas Madoc Leisure Centre in Acrefair by Wrexham Council have been largely avoided.
Flintshire Council deputy leader Cllr Bernie Attridge said: "We have done our best to protect non-statutory services.
"However, it is now inevitable that some will be lost, although we will consult with constituents before decisions are made.
"It remains to be seen how sustainable councils will be in the face of such massive cuts and this could be the final nail in the coffin of local government."
Cllr Shotton remains hopeful the reduction in central funding may not be as harsh as feared.
"The minister has issued a letter to all Welsh councils which forewarns of the likely position but does not give the precise detail of the settlement," he said.
"We take it there is still scope for discussion between authorities and the Welsh Government."

We are an up-and-coming EMR company and we just changed our name and now need a logo.
Medical personnel. Hospital/Doctors-office staff. Potentially medical patients.

The current logo we have is 292 pixels wide x 132 pixels tall (or 2.5:1), but I think we can work with other shapes.
We like the idea of using Picasso's style (and/or his works) as an inspiration/starting point, but don't make it so artsy that the laymen won't understand what he is looking at.

Loud cheering from Republicans met the news that the Governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, had survived an attempt to remove him by way of a recall vote. His victory, so soon after Mitt Romney clinched the party's presidential nomination, was seized upon as proof that the party has the wind in its sails and could evict Barack Obama from the White House, come November.
A jubilant Mr Romney said that the result would "echo beyond the borders of Wisconsin", and show that "citizens... could prevail against the runaway government costs imposed by labour bosses". But his words also illustrated, no doubt unintentionally, the limits of the conclusions to be drawn from Mr Walker's victory.
It is true that Wisconsin has preferred Democrats in every presidential election since 1988. But it is also regarded as a somewhat unpredictable "swing" state, where support for the two main parties tends to be evenly balanced. It may vote Democrat in the presidential contest, but the current governor is a Republican. And the recall vote, like the 2010 election that brought Mr Walker to office, was fought on local issues – in fact, on one local issue: state taxes and resistance by public sector trade unions to cost-cutting changes in their members' terms and conditions.
Given that US voters, no less than their European counterparts, have been facing painful economic measures and that Americans – Democrats included – are by and large less sympathetic to organised labour and the public sector, it would have been astounding if the recall vote in Wisconsin had succeeded. However much Republicans might strive to present it as such, a state-level recall vote on a very specific issue is no real pointer to the odds in the presidential race.
That does not mean, of course, that the Democrats should dismiss the result as irrelevant. It is a warning shot across their bows and a salutary reminder of the dangers of complacency. But it is premature for Republicans to be rejoicing. Mr Walker was elected governor with a mandate to take on the public sector unions. That mandate has been renewed, but this victory will not resonate far beyond the state line.Reuse content

The Hardware Societe

The Bronzed Onion
Harbord, Sydney
OUR lunch date comes down to the toss of a coin. Dinner out or the Bledisloe Cup on TV? Union wins, and we head into Freshwater to mingle with the lunchtime set. The Bronzed Onion has a plum spot right in the middle of the village. It spills to the front onto the street and to the side into a small arcade. With some great, girly shops on either side and across the road, it's a perfect venue for two extremely agreeable pursuits, lunching and shopping. Or shopping and lunching, if you prefer. Straddling the line between daytime cafe and evening restaurant, the Bronzed Onion's mission statement, or so its business card states, is both restaurant and family cafe. Nippers are warmly welcomed and can be fed and watered with an obligatory sugar fix for $12. But don't let that put you off. If you're childless or child free, it's still a grownup place to go. In fact, the Saturday lunchtime cafe society is a mixture of family groups and kiddyfree, 20-somethings enjoying coffees and platefuls of breakfasts. Inside, owners Renee and Rodd Black have dared to be different. For once, that allpurpose, beachy blandness replicated up and down the peninsula gets the flick. God forbid, there's vibrant colour on the walls, clutter, a funky bar as well as towering, twiggy topiaries. Having lunch in a cafe it is often hard to see what a kitchen can really do. Renee, who's also a chef, has gone down two routes. She's stuck with a range of old faves including the allday breakfast, caesar and thai salads, burgers, sandwiches and wraps, balanced with balsamic rump steak and pan-fried salmon, fish and chips and pasta. Her more interesting pilgrimage heads to Spain with that dining staple, tapas. Some dishes are regulars – popular quesadillas, a mixed tapas plate, croquettas (lemon, herb and parmesan risotto balls), gambas a la plancha (prawns) and pulpo espanol (octopus). The spicy prawns in red sauce seems too good to pass by. And at $18 it's a generous and tasty serve to share tapas-style or eat alone. Six juicy prawns and plenty of spicy tomato sauce to soak up your garlic tosado. The menu crosses the border to Italy with a light option of lemon linguine. It's a fresh and lighter contrast to the earthy chilli con carne. Slow-cooked for more than three hours and seasoned with chipotle and cumin, the blade of beef simply falls apart.

Welll, this is a doozey. According to industry analyst Kevin Dent's Twitter feed, THQ is pretty much circling the drain. It's cancelled the 40K MMO Dark Millennium, shut down all plans for 2014, and is looking for someone to buy the company out.
The NeoGAF forums broke the news, and sure enough it's still all through Dent's feed, along with a lot of tweets obviously backing his claims.
It's hard to take this seriously for now. There's certainly no official news, and all that can be gotten out of THQ locally is a firm 'no comment' - which, if you're that way inclined, could be taken kinda ominously.
That said, Vigil Games' (the company working on Dark Millennium) website still boasts the game as upcoming, though the commentary on the company's Facebook page is rather slow. On the other hand, Vigil's still advertising for jobs on the DMO team.
At least for now.
I know THQ's share price has taken a hammering over the last 12 months (thank in part to poor critical reception of Homefront), and the amount of licensed games it's pulbishing - from UFC to Games Workshop - can't be cheap. And then there's the brutal round of studio closures from last year to consider. So maybe this is more than speculation after all.
We'll keep you posted.

Images have recently surfaced online of an upcoming Dunk Low Pro from Nike SB that appears to have a Brazilian-influenced color scheme.
With nicknames like "Brazil" and 'Brazil World Cup" already floating around, it would seem that this royal blue with yellow and green accented Dunk was inspired by Brazil's national colors. There is no word yet on a release date, but take a look at a few detailed images, and stay tuned to Sole Collector for release information as it becomes available.

What does the GOY run ya big fella?
Only got enough for one more splash so he is out of luck.
Yeah, let's say now Dante Exum was first mentioned in this thread. Looks really talented and explosive. Hope he opts for one year of college and if so it may be St. Mary's or Gonzaga, great programs on West coast so closer for family. Both programs have a history of getting good Aussie players.
If Chiefs lose you gotta go old school, the D with the horse through it. I will take your choice.
I dont sell picks, not a pro, dont claim to be a pro.. Just a well respected capper here at pregame
GOY stands for game of year.. This is my best bet for the year.. There are several very good angles pointing in favor of the chiefs, and not just saying that because I have a chiefs avatar.. I am here to hopefully help others win $$, not lose like some other posters
Never said you sell picks. Just wondering what you are throwing down on the Chiefs.
O ok, misunderstood you
Hey rob0721, well respected by who? Let's take a roll call on that.
Phil i contribute, what do you do besides drink vodka and call out dubv and then eat your own words because his winning record embarrasses you and leaves you speechless.. Then you troll around everyones threads looking for something smart to say and hope for an arguement! Sums your rep up in a summary..
I have been here since 2010, you joined 2013..

FBI wants public's help in child abuse case
SALT LAKE CITY - The FBI wants the public's help in finding a man who is sexually abusing a child.
The bureau says "John Doe 28" is seen in images and video "engaging in sexually explicit activities with a child." These came to the attention of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in November 2012.
Authorities said John Doe 28's state and region are unknown, and is asking the public's help in identifying him.
The FBI believes enhanced images of the man offer several clues. The video shows him and the child inside a home with what appears to be a blue sofa chair and a picture hanging on a wall in the background. Additionally, the man is wearing wire-framed glasses and a burgundy T-shirt with what appears to be a shark logo on his left side.
John Doe 28 appears to be white and in his 30s or 40s.
If you have any information on this case, submit a tip at https://tips.fbi.gov or call the FBI's toll-free tip line at (800) CALL-FBI ((800) 225-5324).

"If you don't like the weather, just wait 15 minutes." – Anonymous Minnesota weather lore
Changeable weather conditions today
Scattered showers along with an advancing cold front
Wind advisory out for much of western & central Minnesota
Red Flag Warnings out from the Dakotas south into Kansas
Astronomical Fall begins at 9:49am Saturday (Autumnal Equinox)
Source: Twin Cities NWS
Mixed weather bag today:
Time to trot out that old Minnesota saying… "if you don't like the weather just wait 15 minutes!"
This will be one of those days as a fast moving jet stream drives a cold front through Minnesota.
Clouds, showers, sun & wind. Repeat.
The Twin Cities NWS "Weather Story" this morning does a pretty good job of highlighting the weather confusion Minnesotans will feel today.
Today an upper level system will move across the international border and drive a cold front through the region. This will bring a few showers and possibly a thunderstorm across northern Wisconsin and eastern Minnesota. Meanwhile a Wind Advisory is in effect this afternoon for western Minnesota where strong winds of 30 mph, with gusts near 40 mph are possible at times. Further west a Red Flag Warning is in effect due to the fire danger across the Dakotas. Looking ahead, cloudy and cool weather will linger across the region through the end of the coming week
Colder shot Friday & Saturday:
The next cold front coming through Friday & Saturday looks even colder than what we've seen so far this week.
Source: Twin Cities NWS
Major modles including the GFS and NAM bring an air mass south Friday cold enough for …snow showers fromt Duluth down I-35 into eastern Minnesota including the Twin Cities metro. If the timing works out right…enough moisture could ride down with the system to squeeze out the season's first snow showers as far south as the Twin Cities Friday and especially Friday night into Saturday morning.
Source: College of Du Page Weather Lab
Temps may have a hard time cracking 55 degrees Saturday in the metro.
Milder days in sight?
The weather maps overall are hinting at slightly milder breezes beginning next week, as temps begin the slow climb back toward average. The average high/low next week in the metro are 67/48.
The longer range maps seem to suggest a warm up by around the 1st of October.

Keep in mind that the medium range forecast models can change rapidly this time of year. Upper air patterns are often less predictable in spring and fall as rapid changes occur.

That's where we stand so far in 2012 when it comes to USA tornado numbers.
724 "actual" tornadoes in the USA this year according to NOAA's SPC data.
1,382 3 year average for USA tornadoes
1691 tornadoes in 2011
Source: NOAA/SPC
While we still have a few months left in 2012, the "peak" of tornado season is behind us.
As of right now, the last year we've seen this few tornadoes in the USA is 1988…24 years ago when the USA recorded just 702 tornadoes.
I'm hoping the trend will continue…but I'm also seeing some pattern changes ahead that could spark some potential fall tornado outbreaks in the coming weeks in the Central and Southern Plains.
Stay tuned.

A question as exciting as any of the silly season flared in prominent type in the Strand yesterday. The question, related to the coming Budget, was, "Should corsets be taxed?" If there is really a demand for a certain corset, "a great favourite with military gentlemen", advertised in a window near the Garrick Theatre, showing a waspish waist on a figure surmounted by a fierce moustache, the proposed tax would seem to affect both sexes [and probably be connected with] the desire of someone to sell corsets.
The statement made yesterday [for] the new Town Council of Pretoria that the city will in the future, as in the past, be the capital of the Transvaal, marks the end of a controversy between Mr. Chamberlain and Lord Milner. Lord Milner has, as all the world knows, established himself at Johannesburg, which he prefers to Pretoria. Lord Milner has predicted for Johannesburg a population of no less than five millions.
Mr. Chamberlain, probably not regarding Lord Milner as the permanent and inevitable ruler of South Africa, is rumoured to have taken the more statesmanlike view that the fine government buildings at Pretoria ought to be utilised, not the new international mushroom town in which the capitalists are congregated. If the Chairman of the Pretoria Town Council is correctly informed, Mr. Chamberlain has carried his point.
The Kate Greenaway Memorial Committee has decided that a child's cot be endowed in Miss Greenaway's name at Great Ormond Street hospital.
In his lecture on "The Town Child", Mr. Reginald Bray dealt with the family life of the masses. Mr. Bray has gained the right to speak with authority on this subject by living in a tenement house in South London, and keeping the objects of his studies under close personal observation.
He argued that family life was one of the basic conceptions of social studies. The system of cottage dwellings he showed to be far more acceptable and advantageous than that of block buildings, in which all the evils of overcrowding were intensified.
Analysing the effects of family life upon the child, he told us that the mother proceeds on the following educational lines. [Conventional morality] causes her to disapprove of drunkenness and vice, but rarely to regard truthfulness as of great value. [Her utilitarian morality] is directed to discouraging troublesome or noisy tendencies on the part of the children.

The First Law Of Action: A Refined Outcome Is Easier To Achieve
Well, my last two rants about the Law of Attraction "attracted" a lot of solid discussion, so I thought I'd carry the ball a little further. If you missed the last two posts, check 'em out now and join the comment thread:
- Pollyanna On Ecstasy: Why Positive Thinking Just Doesn't Work
- Why The Law Of Attraction Seems To Work … Sometimes
Now on to our regularly scheduled (de)programming.
The Laws Of Action: What They Are All About
I recently described the age-old "Law of Action" (which I made up off the top of my head) as this:
To have more of what you want in life, you have to get clear on what you want, get emotionally invested in achieving it, act from a position of certainty, and keep yourself from self-sabotage.
That's a mouthful, so I think I'll start breaking it down into some smaller points which I'll call the "Laws of Action." And when I say "Law," I'm being a little bit facetious as very few things are actually universal laws. But it seems a good antidote to the mainstream version of the Law of Attraction (the one that's all about magic and not about action at all).
So let's break the big law up into some nuggets that you can use right freaking now. First up:
The First Law Of Action: A Refined Outcome Is Easier To Achieve
This is the First Law of Action because this is the one that most people miss, because they use fuzzy words like "more," "better," "happier." The problem is, words like that don't drive you to action because they are fuzzy. And fuzzy don't pay the bills. If your outcome is fuzzy – like "I want to make more money" or "I want to lose weight," then that's not going to drive you to do specific things – the action part.
Tony Robbins had this funny trick he'd do in seminars. Basically he'd ask someone, "Would having more money make you happier?" Naturally, the person would say "Yeah!" and smile. Then Tony would toss the guy a quarter and say "There. You have more money. Are you happier?" Of course, the person would shake his head "no." Tony would shrug at the guy and say "Maybe you should start being more specific about what you want so you can start being happier."
A Quarter Just Doesn't Cut It
Whether you're a Robbins' fan or foe, he's nailed this point. Fuzzy goals create fuzzy, unfocused action. I used to want to "make money" online. For a few years I did make money, in fits and starts. It sucked. Then I decided to get very specific about what I wanted. In February I started an experiment called the Freelance Smackdown where I took Christine O'Kelly's freelancing book and put it to the test to get a specific result: $1000 – $2000 in 30 days doing nothing but freelance writing.
Because I got specific, I nailed it. And every month thereafter, I set specific goals for my freelance writing and nailed them, too. Not because I'm magical, or I'm so fantastic, but because I got specific. Instead of trying every strategy in the world, I tried specific things – and more importantly, I stopped pursuing other strategies – and the focus paid off. Focus is key, because it helps you make distinctions about whether you're taking the right actions to meet your specific results. (Harry understands this.)
Here's What You Need To Do
If you're not getting what you want out of your goals, ask yourself whether you've refined it enough to take specific action. Is your goal to "lose weight" or have you refined it to "exercise 30 minutes, 3 times a week?" Or better yet, "Yoga on Mondays, jogging on Wednesdays, hiking on Fridays?" Fuzzy goals leave you wondering about which way to go to achieve your goals. By getting specific about the "what" and "how" parts of your goals, you are increasing the chance of taking relevant action.
So Start Typing And Put The First Law Into Action, Dammit
In the next 60 seconds, before you go onto another blog post, before you check your email, or twitter, or whatever, take a look at that big goal you have – the one that you want to make faster progress on – and begin refining it like this:
- "I want more blog subscribers" -> "I want to add 100 subscribers in the next 60 days."
- "I want to make more money" -> "I want to make $5,000 in sales before Christmas"
- "I want to lose weight" -> "I want to phase soda out of my diet in 30 days."
Then post it in the comments. The more you refine it, the higher your chance of getting off your ass and doing it.
If You Need Help, Ask For It
Not sure how to get more specific about your goals, put your current goal in the comments and I (and maybe my awesome readers) will help you out. And when you're done, subscribe to this blog so you don't miss the upcoming Laws of Action. Now get to it. *whipcrack*

I'm going to specifically NOT post what you've asked, for one simple reason.
Recently, I decided to start taking decisive clear action on what I wanted in my life and what I didn't. I realized that I had to sit down and think of what worked for me and what didn't work for me across many levels and in many areas.
And I started taking a stand. I began drawing lines. "Enough is enough. No more this – it's not good for me. I don't like that. It's not good for me. I don't want this. It's not good for me."
The what I want is still fuzzy, and to be honest, I'll keep it that way for now. I have a general vision and I'm getting a much clearer definition about what I want and need for myself by knowing what I *don't* want.
And that's why I won't answer you. I'm doing what you ask, only backwards

I agree wholeheartedly on that Dave. I want to finish my e-book on stress so wtf am I doing commenting on and Stumbling your blog for?

- Aug 22, 2008 steph
Great post!
My husband's told me this time and again. And I keep saying, but I can't be specific, I don't really know what I want! (Everything?)
So he tells me to work backwards, as James is doing. But sometimes I get stuck on that. On what I don't want. And I lament that for too long.
While I was reading your examples at the bottom of getting specific, I felt something akin to fear, and it hit me: I can't get specific because I'm scared to. I think there's two reasons why.
1. I'm afraid to commit to something. What if I want to change my mind? What if I choose the wrong thing? (I know, what's the big deal? But still.)
2. I am afraid that getting specific will hold me to something I fear I'll fail at before I start.
Huh. That's a lot of fear.
Thanks for making me realize this. It's inspired a post – but I hesitate to say when exactly that will be written!

Dave, you are KILLING IT with these posts. I'm following you on this but I need to keep my goals private.
- Aug 22, 2008 Karen Swim
Dave, these posts have been so on target I can almost see them hitting that big fat bullseye in the middle of my forehead. I have weeded out so much of what I don't want and like James my list of "dont's" has really given me greater clarity. One of my immediate goals involves throwing a few new things at the wall to see what sticks. Yea, sounds crazy but as part of a longer term goal I realized that I need to expand to see what will be the best path to get me there. I know that I haven't hit "that thing" yet which means branching out, trying some new things in my quest for the perfect fit. So this murky as heck comment really is crystal clear in my notebook, honest.

I'll go one step further, replacing "want to" with "will".
I will finish the draft of my book by December 31, 2008 (and I'm on track to do it).
I will get a copy of it to Oprah by March 31, 2009 (if I have to hand deliver it).
Sound good?

@Dave oooh good questions! I've committed to 60 days of trial and error. Of course some things may get booted sooner because it would be insane to commit to something that's clearly not working (either doesn't work for my style or doesn't fit the parameters of my master plan). To prove it sticks, must noodle more but my initial thoughts are it has to be something I can sustain long term with a minimal investment of daily time (1hour tops) and I have to like it!
- Aug 22, 2008 Tara
Well, today I feel good about goal-setting, because I just accomplished a long-term goal and sent out my first newsletter. It was small, but makes me feel SO good!
My long-term goal is to be a full-time artist. I've figured out what I'd need to make per year (and thus, per month, per week, per day) but I seem to get hung up on actually making the products to sell to get to that goal (I sell a handmade, physical item, so before I sell it, I have to create it!)
So, my short-term goal: make $1,000 in sales in September.
That 's still smaller than my long-term goal but closer to it than my current production. Baby steps.
You know, now that I write it, I'm all nervous, afraid the writers and marketers will laugh at such a measly number. But. I'm doing it. I'm hitting "Submit"…

Dave- Excellent. Not posting that publicly, but will refine 2 things on my map. Great series.
I think I remember reading that the LOA says that focusing on what you don't want brings more of that into sight. Any thoughts there? I'll go look again to see if I can find that.
It seems like a good way to clarify to me, the what I don't , that is.

My goals have nothing to do with business or blogging and they're ones I've been wrestling with for the last 30 years.
I can't really say what I want, but like James, I know what I don't want. I'm at a point of enough is enough, too. I've gotten a lot bolder with many things across the board. The hardest part is stepping outside the comfort zone when you know deep down in your soul you have to do exactly that if you're going to make any kind of progress at all. Each of us is our own worst enemy.
Yes, Dave, I understand exactly what you're talking about.

Whenever I hear someone say more money would make them happier I tell them, is it really the money that would make you happier or the benefits that money can provide?
We don't want the money, we want the freedom to travel. We don't want money, we want to buy name-brand products . . . etc.
Focus, like you say, is so key. The problem I find is most people just don't know the right questions to ask themselves (and others).
I have many goals, of course. I've even worked many of them backwards which always helps bring things into clear steps. The problem is, they've been pushed aside and have been collecting dust, kinda like my business plan.
Thank you, Dave. This post has inspired me to pull them out again and refocus. We so easily drift away from our true goals, don't we?
My (our) #1 goal right now – to allow my wife to quite her job as a wedding planner and stay home with our kids while doing a part time business making beaded jewelry.
I actually have not focused this enough for us. There are many avenues to explore, some of which might get us there faster but at the cost of slowing down on our current business, eVentureBiz. But that's my passion, so should I starve that for another goal?
Any insights before I start my backwards time table?

GOALS! You had to pick on my weak spot this morning?
I am awful at setting goals. I usually just sit down with a huge to do list and plug away until I either pass out from exhaustion or get everything finished. Consequently, I spend a lot of nights with keys stuck to my forehead. Yeah, I guess setting goals would help that.
My goal is to complete a time schedule for each workday today and stick to it at least three days this week. Wow, that feels better all ready. Thanks Dave!

A second goal, inspired by James' post this morning, (http://menwithpens.ca/how-to-feel-consistently-confident-about-your-writing )is to stop reading all my posts in my feed reader and visit my favorite websites and let my favorite bloggers know how great they are.
Let me start that one right now.
Thanks for inspiring me to be more structured, focused, and motivated. Your posts are exactly what a need many days and have been a real blessing. Thank you Dave.

Dave – That's a wonderful way of distinguishing the difference. I lifted their words right out of the copy of the Secret that a friend gave me. It is not the original version of the LOA that I read and like much better.
I "refined" and posted about it today because there was a huge gaping hole in my production goals. We're all going to owe you a good pair of boots for all the fab a$$s kicking you do.

I'm discovering that it's really, really hard for me to be specific and nail my goals down. Every time I start to clarify one, I find three others that it depends on. (Must do THIS before moving on to THAT….)
That said, I'm going to find a way to clear my plate enough that I can start calling and/or writing book publishers (and/or authors who may be able to help…) to find out what steps to take to help my father-in-law get his book published — and I'm going to do it by mid-September.

@Gina – I just went over and viewed your website. So you can scratch that of your list as completed. Couldn't find a blog though. (I think it's kind of cool that you live in a town called Haiku!)
Just kidding of course, but I noticed that your first goal is pretty specific, but the other ones need work. And I couldn't help but pull a Tony Robbins trick myself
@Dave – We were talking about the same thing. Being specific in your goals was what I meant with "getting this right".
I think it's better to have specific goals that are 'wrong' than unclear goals that are 'right'. The former makes sure that we find out soon that we're not on the right track. Or as Brett says: Fail early. Fail often.

Once you come up to understand how to combine both self-sabotage&the one around you you finally stage strategy how to avoid it. It is always more wise to clarify your goals rather than waiting others to do it for you.
Keep writing even if it needs to sleep on a dead lake which doesn't move any more. Should we call that desert area with dangerous heat?
