Oh, Cleveland… Where do I begin? As a collective whole, we are constantly complaining about our tragic history with sports teams. Why us? What did we do to deserve this? I, for one, am completely disappointed in us. Yes, I will include myself in that group. I was at the Tribe game on Tuesday night (with free tickets someone in a disheartened state gave away to a friend outside a Nordstrom Rack). What I witnessed made me embarrassed to call myself a dedicated Cleveland sports fan, for I certainly haven't earned that title as of late. The entire upper deck was completely empty. There was one random dude in charge of the Circle K strike count up there by himself. The merchandise stands on the main concourse were completely empty, and there wasn't even a wait for a beer going into the 7th inning. Since there wasn't a wait, I had the opportunity to have a enlightening conversation with a beer vendor named Deborah who has been with the team since 1994. Deborah has been through some ups and downs in this relationship with her Cleveland Indians, but one thing sets her apart from the rest of us. She still has the same level of dedication. She understands, that this is her team… regardless. Through good times and bad, she has been a Cleveland Indians fan, through and through. You see, I worked for this team from 1997-2000 as well. I know what it feels like to have that electric energy surrounding a team. Deborah wants to know why we aren't rallying around these guys, when all we do is bitch and whine that we don't have any championship contending teams to root for. Amen, Deborah! You are 100% correct. So, what do we do at this point to show the Tribe that they are OUR TEAM?
If you've watched these guys play, you can see what an incredibly cohesive unit they are. Everyone has their function, and any one of them would be happy to let someone else be the hero on any given night at the ballpark. We need to learn from them. This is our team, which means that we accept ALL of them. You absolutely can NOT boo one of your own players when they're not performing up to your expectations. How does that psychology even make sense? You're not happy… we get it. However, all this does is aggravate the situation and make it worse. Is Chris Perez going to all of a sudden start throwing strikes when his own 'fans' are hurling insults at him while he's trying to do his job? Some of you have a problem with him due to his legal troubles, and I'm certain that your morally superior lifestyle allows you to judge. Is it smart to have drugs delivered to your dog through the mail? Probably not. Why do you care? Not one of you bothered to recommend a local drug dealer, now did you? All joking aside, when these guys get back to town (because they WILL have more home games) show this guy some love. In the past, he's called out the fan base for their lack of support. Was he wrong? Everyone has that one relative… the crazy uncle who does things you don't necessarily agree with. Do you kick him out of the family? My guess is that he still shows up for Thanksgiving, and you treat him like he's own of your own. Let's show these guys that we support each and every one of them, especially Crazy Uncle Chris.
We continue to get punched in the face by the Browns organization, and yet the seats are still full and thousands of the faithful show up each home game to tailgate. Why is this? I understand that there are only eight home games per year, which makes it easier to commit. Don't tell me that this is a 'football town'. I would argue that it's a sports town. Period. The energy and adoration surrounding the Indians of the late 90s was something pretty special. That organization is a class act and I consider myself fortunate to have been a part of it. It's almost as if we're in an abusive relationship with the Browns. We accept this treatment and have become complacent to the fact that we have zero chance of winning. If we were to support a team with a legitimate chance of winning, aren't we setting ourselves up for a more significant level of heartbreak? Absolutely. Is our self esteem that battered, Cleveland? We're comparable to a teenaged girl who sticks by her douchebag boyfriend because she doesn't feel that she deserves any better. I'm not asking you to abandon the Browns. They're our team, as well. What I'm asking is that you shift your focus. Give these guys the attention they deserve. Let's help propel them into October by showing them that this city supports them. Go out and buy some new Tribe gear. Stop by your nearest Cleveland Indians Team Shop or my new favorite local retailer, GV Artwork in Lakewood and get yourself a 'Goon Squad' tee. Wear your pride on your sleeve, Cleveland. Represent at work. Send the kiddos to school proudly sporting their favorite Indians sweatshirt. Hell, put 'It's Tribe Time Now' signs in your windows. I don't care how you show your support… Just do it! The bandwagon is parked out front, and everyone needs to get on board.
P.S. They don't make you carry Ziploc bags for purses at Progressive Field and where else can you witness a foot race between the condiments ketchup, mustard, and onion? I'll see you at the Ballpark. GO TRIBE!

Texas Little Cuties(TLC) Rescue is a 501(3)(c) non profit organization that typically rescues our dogs from the Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake, a rural shelter that sees very HIGH volumes of abandoned dogs. TLC is an all-volunteer animal rescue organization that specializes in saving little cuties scheduled to be euthanized because shelters lack room and funding. These dogs are wonderful and they are only put down because they have no owners to claim & adopt them in time. These dogs are all waiting for that miraculous second chance in life that they so deserve.
Our animals stay in loving foster homes where they are socialized, loved and evaluated to determine the best type of environment for their personalities. All animals receive their appropriate vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper, Parvo and Bordetella), worming, and heartworm testing and scheduled for a spay or neuter. All dogs in our care are on heartworm preventative the minute they arrive. If a dog is tested positive for heartworms, we will take him through treatment or will recommend doing heartworm preventative for 7 months then retest. Not all dogs can handle the strong treatments. Please contact us if you would like more information.
Please come support TLC & HSCCL EVERY week at one of the Petsmart locations below where we show our cuties in the hopes of finding them fantastic forever homes!
Not all dogs will be shown as some foster homes are too far to make the trip. If you wish to see a particular dog one weekend, please email us. We will be happy to try to accommodate your request.
We show some of the smaller dogs every Saturday & Sunday from 12-4 in Garland and on Saturdays & Sundays at the Petsmart in S. McKinney, unless we are invited to a special dog event. Please join us!
Petsmart - Garland
5401 N Garland Ave
Garland, TX 75040
Petsmart - S. McKinney
8676 State Highway 121
McKinney, TX 75070
The larger breed TLC dogs will be at the Petsmart in Mckinney every Saturday from 11-4 and Sunday from 12- 4
Please come out and meet our precious dogs and see if there is one you would like to add to your family! The HSCCL and TLC are always in dire need of adoptions, foster homes, food, and assistance. So please consider helping today!
Foster Homes are ALWAYS desperately needed. Please consider filling out an application and put "FOSTER" as the dog interested in to become a foster parent. It is so rewarding to be able to say that you made a difference in that animals life and the lives of his new family!
Willie is a 2 yr old, 4 lb Chi-Papillon that was nearly shredded by a bigger animal. He is strong enough that he made it on his own for nearly a week with extensive injuries. He had one surgery already to repair torn intestines and a hernia. He must get stronger and fight off infection so that he can go to Texas A&M and visit the specialist. He has a crushed pelvis that can not heal on itself due to where the bones are lying. He might lose use of both rear legs if not successful. That's ok, wheelchairs for dogs are very normal these days. We don't understand why no one is looking for their extra tiny sweet boy. We are estimating that his medical bills will be over $3000 before he can be declared "well". Yes, that is a lot of money, but he is a very special and strong boy. He deserves a chance. They all deserve a chance. Update! We raised all the funds for Willie and he is now healthy and in his new home loving his new brother.
Recently we have had five puppies admitted to the veterinary hospital and treated for Parvovirus (i.e. Parvo). While curable, Parvo treatment can be extensive and is very costly. Sadly after several hospital visits and extensive treatments, 2 of our 5 puppies recently succumbed to the disease. Below is a pic of one of our parvo survivors (the handsome Jackson who just adopted) now thriving and going strong. We are so grateful they could be saved and to Yoda and Polly who went to the rainbow bridge, you are in our hearts forever even though you were only here on earth for a short time. Please consider donating to TLC through the paypal button below to help offset the costs of these expensive treatments and to make certain we can afford to treat more dogs in the inevitable event we have puppies diagnosed with Parvo again.
For those not farmiliar with Parvo it is a viral disease of dogs. It is often transmitted in contaminated fecal matter coming from infected dogs . Puppies immature immune systems makes them prime candidates for this disease. Particularly those pups like ours in rescue that were abandoned at the shelter after coming from less than stellar living conditions. The extremely hardy virus attacks the digestive system and renders the puppies unable to absorb nutrients and liquids. Parvovirus is characterized by severe, bloody diarrhea and vomiting, high fever and lethargy. The diarrhea is particularly foul smelling and is sometimes yellow in color. Often the puppy will stop eating and/or drinking and dehydration and shock can result. It also causes depression and suppression of white blood cells. It may also infect the heart muscle in young puppies and lead to "sudden" death. Mortality rate with out treatment is 80-90%.
YOUR NEW PUPPY OR KITTEN is supposed to have a series of 3 vaccines as soon as you get them to protect them from many diseases. Remember that an incomplete series of vaccinations may lead to incomplete protection, making puppies and kittens vulnerable. Parvo is at an all time high. Puppies should receive DHLPP (Distemper, Hepatitus, Leptospirosis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus) shots at approximately 6 weeks, 9 weeks and 12 weeks of age and their Rabies vaccination at 16 weeks.
Let's not forget our pets and their needs during these "rough" times. Skip one Starbuck's every month and you can still afford your pet's Heart worm preventative. He/She will thank you with lots of warm wet kisses and a non stop wagging tail! Shop around for a cheaper vet if you have to, just make sure you and your pet really like that new doctor.
If your dog does have heart worms, please get them treated. The cost of Heart worm treatment ranges from $150 to $2000, depending on the vet that you use. Cost varies between the severity of the heart worms and whether the treatment should be done in two rounds or three rounds. Also, one vet may charge $150 and another vet may charge $1000 for the exact same treatment. So shop around. If you have any questions regarding Heart worms, preventative, or treatment, please feel free to contact our rescue group. A qualified vet person will be happy to assist you and answer all your questions.
Every dollar that we receive goes towards helping homeless animals. In addition to the parvo puppies, we have recently had a run of dogs with heartworms. Treatments cost have been running around $200 for each dog. Please consider donating to help with these treatments and remember... this disease is 100% PREVENTABLE with a once a month pill!!!!

My daughter had upper jaw surgery 4 weeks ago. During the consultation, our maxillofacial surgeon suggested he lift her nose "a millimeter or two."Unfortunately,she said "OK."For the first couple of days after surgery she looked fine.Over the next week, her nose kept turning up more and more. Now, her nose is turned up so much when looking at her face head on,all you see are two HUGE nostrils.Still some swelling in upper lip and sides of nose but most is gone. What should we do?
Jaw Surgery Nose Concern
Doctor Answers 2
Final results of nose & jaw surgery will take months
This should settle down as the swelling resolves. It is still too early to assess the final results of the surgery.
Upturned tip after jaw surgery.
It is too soon to be certain, but this may or may not be swelling. You need to see a good REVISION rhinoplasty surgeon to determine if the nose will need to be derotated in the future. No surgery for at least 6 months from the time of surgery, so she will have to be patient to get the best results.

I haven't completed a quilt yet, but had an idea for your office. Think about rotating them occassionally (sp?) A great way to add interest to your wall, AND be able to display more than one quilt. :-) :lol:
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I haven't completed a quilt yet, but had an idea for your office. Think about rotating them occassionally (sp?) A great way to add interest to your wall, AND be able to display more than one quilt. :-) :lol:
Some of mine I have kept (in fact, a lot of mine lol). I made each of my daughter's college friends (the group has maintained their very close friendship for 10 yrs now) a quilt. I tried to choose each person's favorite colors or a theme I knew they would enjoy. The last of these is ready to go to the recipient later this month.
Well--quilted stuff (wall hangings, lap size quilts, tree skirts, pillows, table runners) ) have gone to all the nieces and nephews on one side, both my parents and in-laws, many friends have something, some new babies, kids who have troubles, a few students, my kids each have about 4, there are wall hangings all over the house....there are now two quilts for the bed-which I change for the seasons, and I have two for myself.
My kids are 18 and almost 21, so in about 5-9 years I should be working on wedding and then baby quilts...and wall hangings for every room in their houses. :lol: :wink:
NOW, I'm working up a pile to sell at a craft sale in November. I can't wait for summer, when school's out, to get going on finishing all I've started!!!! I have sold several items....
I have given many quilts to friends and family for gifts. I have a pile still left to be quilted that I will decide once done if I will keep them for me or to sell them. I have sold my quilts for the last 10 years. I remember when my very first quilt was sold. I was living in Nova Scotia and I put this beautiful blue and white star sampler in to a quilt consignment store to be sold. It sold within a couple weeks to a couple from France!! I was sooo excited!! that was 1997.
I still want to donate some of my work to some special causes here. I also work for the Newfoundland Labrador Housing Corporation (its a division of provincial government) We provide housing and services to low income families. This coming November/December I will be donating one of my Christmas tree skirts that will be placed up on tickets with all proceeds going to help purchase Christmas hampers. Perhaps next year I might try a small Christmas lap quilt.
I can't think of a better decoration for a room let alone an office! Things get stressful, just look at the quilt to stabilize!
The only quilt I've kept is one that I found at a yard sale. It is a hand pieced top of hexagons of numerous materials. I haven't found any two hexagons alike. It's like an I spy. I just finished it and loved it so much I kept it. Been sleeping with it for years. I only paid $4 for it!
The VAST majority of the quilts I make or for teens and kids as gifts. Some are related to me, some are not. I've sold a couple that were special requests for homemade John Deere quilts. I'm finishing one now with a Cars theme for my grandson who adores the movie.
My favorite quilt story is a friend of mine had been after me for years to make her a quilt. I like to personalize quilts when I can and had a hard time personalizing hers as we had so much history together. Then I stumbled on the perfect pattern, we went shopping together and she chose all the material (novelty patterns and colors I wouldn't have chose in a million years), I complained about the color choice to her and anyone else who would listen. I made the quilt. She and I have gotten so many raves that I was dumbstruck. I had to admit to her that she did well choosing the colors. Anyway, as payment for my labor and making a second quilt of the colors I chose, she let me have her old Jeep. I'd been wanting it and it all just worked out!

Commerce Secretary Gary Locke issued a blistering diatribe against music piracy Monday, declaring it "a growing threat" that "should be dealt with accordingly."
"This isn't just an issue of right and wrong," Locke said in a speech at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, one of the nation's musical focal points. "This is a fundamental issue of America's economic competitiveness."
Borrowing a page from the Hollywood and recording studios, Locke urged internet service providers and content owners "to work collaboratively to combat intellectual property infringement online."
"Especially to combat repeat infringement," he added.
Locke's statements came a week after Cary Sherman, president of the Recording Industry Association of America, declared that copyright law "isn't working" because internet service providers are allowed to turn a blind eye to customers' unlawful activities with impunity. Hollywood and recording studios have been pushing for the removal of online pirates from the internet in what is largely known as "three strikes" or "graduated response" policy.
The Commerce Department, Locke said, is preparing to craft an "administration-wide policy on copyright protection and innovation."
"At the Commerce Department, we are trying to figure out how we shut out the pirates, while preserving the internet as an avenue for commerce for music and for other creative industries," Locke added.
He said the internet was a "double-edged sword" for the industry.
"On the one hand, online copyright infringement is a growing threat, with cyberlockers as well as peer-to-peer, file sharing, streaming and user generated content sites providing a constant challenge to the music industry," he said. "But the internet, if used correctly, can be a great growth engine."

Now it's time to govern. Oh dear.
I'm not against minority governments in principle. The late Senator Eugene Forsey, a constitutional expert though a man of the left, thought they had many merits. As his daughter Helen reminded Citizen readers a week ago, he thought they could restore influence to ordinary MPs, generate real debates in Parliament, and were less able than majorities to head recklessly in a bad direction. In the past, Canada has had several left-Liberal minority governments that were, in those terms, highly successful: first William Lyon Mackenzie King with the Progressives in the 1920s, then Lester Pearson and Pierre Trudeau with the NDP from 1963 to '68 and 1972 to '74. But have we chosen one this time?
In one sense, "we" have not done anything. The final tally shows Liberal support at roughly 37 per cent, Tories at 30, NDP at 16, Bloc at 13 and Greens at four. Yet not one single voter, let alone all of us, cast 37 per cent of our ballot for the Liberals, 30 per cent for the Tories, etc. If we were one gigantic but not very intelligent entity, a sort of political stegosaurus, we could be accused of rejecting the Liberals' combination of arrogance and corruption with fiscal prudence by jettisoning the fiscal prudence. Yet even that may well overstate the Parliament that just resulted from the cumulative effects of our individual voting decisions. Continue Reading →

Product Description
technical comment
- "One of the greatest evenings ever heard in the Mann Auditorium"
Bernstein traveled the world as a conductor. Immediately after World War II, in 1947 he conducted in Tel Aviv, beginning a relationship with Israel that lasted until his death.
While Bernstein's conducting repertoire encompassed the standard literature, he may be best remembered for his performances and recordings of Haydn, Beethoven, Brahms, Schumann, Sibelius and Mahler. Particularly notable were his performances of the Mahler symphonies with the New York Philharmonic in the 1960s, sparking a renewed interest in the works of Mahler.
A live recording from the Mann Auditorium, 25/8/1985
"Bernstein, one of the great Mahler conductors, presents the 9th Symphony with penetrating insight into its musical and emotional depth... the audience responded with an outburst of ovations which lasted for some 20 minutes, calling Bernstein back on the stage time and again." Israel Evening News

Craig MacTavish was asked yesterday to weigh in with his opinion on the possibility of the Edmonton Oilers getting new ownership.
"I'm a coach, I don't know much about that stuff - a lot of people will say I don't know much about anything," he joked. "I certainly have a good relationship with the previous owners. I know the (potentially) new owner; he's a real good person with the right intentions. If it works out, it works out, but I don't know much about it, other than it came as a surprise for me.
"Normally, that's when things happen - when it's all pretty quiet."
On Thursday, Rexall owner Daryl Katz made a new offer to buy the team, an offer which has the support of Cal Nichols, chairman of the Edmonton Investors Group.
"He (Katz) is a hardcore Oilers fan. So are his children," MacTavish said. "It's great to have a local owner step up and want to be a part of what's been a great tradition so far."
The offer, which was substantially larger than the one made this summer, came with a $100-million commitment for a new downtown arena.
"I think the players are excited about it all," said Oilers winger Geoff Sanderson.
"The guys kind of got word last night at the game in Detroit and I think there was a pretty positive atmosphere when the guys found out. They were pretty excited."

Upendra's Super to be screened at 4th Bengaluru International Film Festival
"The organisers make it a point to add a new theme every year and we've zeroed in on 'political cinema' for this festival," Mr HN Narahari Rao, artistic director of the festival, said at a press conference. The fourth edition of the film festival is jointly organised by the Karnataka Chalanachitra Academy and Karnataka Government's Information department.
The event starts from December 15-22 and 179 movies from different languages will be screened at BIFF, says TS Nagabharana, Festival Director. Political-backdrop movies like The Battle of Algiers (Algerian), Z (French), Thaneer Thaneer (Tamil), Lemon Tree (Hebrew) and others will be screened across four venues in Bengaluru.
However, Upendra acted-directed Super was made on the contemporary political issues of Karnataka. The saga throws light on mining scam, horse trading, sex scandal, etc.

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I initially called CR in Aug. to buy a 3 bureau credit score rpt. I had had an issue with the online terms and called one of their agents while applying online. I had seen the auto monthly monitoring chg language & explained that I only wanted to buy the credit score report and did not want to enroll in, or pay for, a monthly monitoring service.The agent acknowledged my request.
Today, while reviewing my bank stmt I noticed a pending $14.95 chg and 4 prior monthly CR charged to me. I called customer service & spoke to an agent who repeatedly stated CR's no refund policy. Getting nowhere, I asked to speak to her boss, Steve Garrett, who identified himself as CR's Cust. Svc. Mgr. and a member of Raffael Medina"s team. I explained the situation again. He pulled up my account and confirmed that I had not been back to CR's site since my original call.
Steve repeated 5x that I had agreed to CR's "service" by signing up online. He said I needed a cancelation number that the CR rep would have given me to stop the charges. I told him the agent did not & it was illogical to have known to ask CR's rep for a cancelation # since it was part of our initial discussion.
Eventually, Steve offered to return the pending chg, plus one month, but refused to return the 1st 3 mos that had been billed to my account. I asked to speak to his supervisor. He refused and said Rafael was unavailable. I asked for Rafael's boss' name or ANY other senior manager. He said this was his decision and that I had no other avenue to complain.
I wonder how much money CR generates/yr from other CR "customers" who don't realize they have, or are being billed for, this "service" and/or have received this treatment for CR's "cust service" dept? I want a full refund.
Here's a list of some of their executives listed on LinkedIn. You can send them LinkedIn mail that they will receive. Good luck!

Situational Irony In The Cask Of Amontillado
What is an example of dramatic, verbal, and situational irony in the short story "The Cask of Amontillado"?
Use exact quotes if you could please.
2 Answers | Add Yours
The Cask of Amontillado, perhaps the most famous of Edgar Allan Poe's short stories, is not only the horrific tale of a man immured alive, but also a tour de force of the use of irony. Poe provides the raison d'etre for this when he writes from the outset that "it must be understood that neither by word nor deed had I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will." From the beginning to the end of this tale of deception, therefore, various kinds of irony are on display.
Verbal irony - saying one thing but meaning the opposite - appears in the greeting Montresor has for the doomed Fortunato: "you are luckily met"; in Montresor's feigned concern for his friend's hacking cough in his damp catacombs: "Your health is precious...You are a man to be missed"; and in Fortunato's reply: "The cough is a mere nothing; it will not kill me. I will not die of a cough."
Situational irony - when events turn out the opposite of what ought to have been expected - appears when Montresor, on the night of carnival, orders his servants not to leave in his absence, thereby ensuring they would do the opposite; when the non-existent cask of amontillado turns instead into the 'casket' for the unfortunate conoisseur; and when premeditated murder remains unpunished even after fifty years.
Dramatic irony - when readers know more than the characters - is present in the very name of Montresor's 'enemy', a most unlucky man; is present in Fortunato's doomed fool costume of "tight-fitting parti-striped dress, and [...] head...surmounted by the conical cap and bells"; and is present in the trowel Montresor reveals, sign of Masonic brotherhood to Fortunato, but tool of immurement to Montresor.
Here are some examples of irony from "The Cask of Amontillado" that you have requested.
VERBAL IRONY. Fortunato claims that "I will not die of a cough." Montressor answers, "True. True." This is ironic because Montressor already knows how Fortunato will meet his end.
SITUATIONAL IRONY. Fortunato is dressed "motley." He wears the costume of a court jester--a fool. He will prove just how foolish he is by following Montressor to the exact location he has planned for Fortunato's final resting place.
DRAMATIC IRONY. When Fortunato asks Montressor if he is a member of the Free-Masons (a secretive fraternal organization), Montressor responds that he is. Fortunato asks for a secret sign that all Masons would recognize. Montressor produces a trowel--a common tool used by masonry workers. Fortunato merely scoffs at his companion, but he should have wondered why Montressor was carrying such an object.

Russia expects Obama visit despite "mini-crisis" in ties
By Alexei Anishchuk
MOSCOW (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama is likely to visit Russia in the first half of 2013 despite a "mini-crisis" in relations over U.S. moves to punish Russians accused of rights abuses, a Kremlin aide said on Tuesday.
Russia's President Vladimir Putin has been angered by the U.S. Congress passing the so-called Magnitsky Act which will bar entry to alleged Russian human rights violators and freeze any assets they hold in the United States.
Obama signed the legislation last week. But, signaling that the Kremlin does not want the spat to block efforts to improve relations, foreign policy aide Yury Ushakov said Putin stood by an invitation for the U.S. president to visit Russia.
"We reckon that Obama's visit could take place in the first half of next year," he told a news briefing.
The Russian parliament has given initial approval to a tit-for-tat law barring Americans accused of human rights violations from entering the country, and the "reset" in relations which Obama called for four years ago has not gone as well as hoped.
Lawmakers have also proposed banning adoption of Russian children by Americans, a move backed by Russia's Children's Rights Commissioner, Pavel Astakhov.
The proposal has upset Kremlin critics and human rights activists, and two government ministers called on Tuesday for restraint over such a move. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the ban would be wrong and Education Minister Dmitry Livanov criticized the idea on Twitter.
"The logic is like 'an eye for an eye', but the logic is wrong, as children could suffer harm if they cannot find adoptive parents in Russia," he said. Continued...

After a brief hiatus during which the future of the band seemed in peril, the Wrong Reasons have mustered a gallant comeback, and this time it's for all the right reasons. Joe Fletcher, drummer Mike Cyr, and bassist Matt Oliva currently make up the nucleus of the band, which has been powered by a cabal of classy roots-rock talent that has included guitarist Dennis Kelly (Boss Fuel, the Worried, the Deterrents, the Stumbleweeds), bassist Jack Hanlon (Amazing Royal Crowns, the Deter¬rents), drummer Dale Cunningham (Glazed Baby), and guitarist Greg Burgess (Amazing Royal Crowns). Now freshly back from the brink, the band has been inspired not only to stay together, but also to get through a big-ass tour and record an album.
Bury Your Problems, the band's full-length debut, bridges the gap between Steve Earle and some gin-soaked band like the Waco Brothers. It has a dark, slightly haunted pall to it, a la the Mekons, thanks to Fletcher's twisted, throaty rasp and the Kelly/Burgess team's wacky strumming. The band is best when it revs up and lets it fly, as on "Who Makes the Knives," "A Better Place," which gets really screechy and cool as it wraps up, and "I Never," a grisly set closer with a couple of greasy guitar solos. The acoustic tunes have a western feel — dusty and dry — the kind of songs you might have heard Woody Guthrie do if he'd heard punk. But regardless of whom it sounds like, it's nice to hear roots-rock resurfacing. For a while there, the city had been losing its twangy Telecasters. Now, thanks in part to all the Wrong Reasons and other bands with regional ties, it's on its way back.

There will also be crafts, books, food, and more from If'n Books, Kafe Lila, Nice Slice, Comics of Love, Recycle-A-Bike's Mechanics-A-Go-Go, SecretEye Records, and the Dirt Palace. Incidentally, Recycle-a-Bike is a Providence-based non-profit, all-volunteer community bicycle recycling and repair shop and education program, currently based at the Steel Yard, 27 Sims Street, Providence. The opening of Project Digs 4, held at the MWM space, will feature artwork by Kendra Plumley, a poster art show, a weaving demonstration, and DJs.
MWM took a huge step forward moving into its new space. Owners Lauren Holt and Keith Souza relocated last year from its smaller East Providence location to a 13,000-square-foot plot in the historic Gorman Furniture building. Lauren, Keith, and the team undertook the massive renovation, and — with the work now nearly done — have good excuse to celebrate its first year.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
When checking my bank account I noticed a check number and amount that I did not recognize. Further investigation revealed that the check was for a company called Fastloan4me and the amount of the check was for 30.00.
After going to the website, it is a company that finds payday loans for people but once you register, they take a 1 time non refundable $30.00 from your check. To add insult to injury it says that you automatically agree to have them take out this money from your check as a one time fee because you agreed to the terms.
Well suffice to say, I never even heard of this company nor did I fill out anything for their website. I tried emailing them and it came back that the email address is permanantly disabled.
I will keep trying to get in touch with this company, but it is a total rip off and I for one am not letting them get away with it.

text: So, you work for yourself. Yeah, me, too. We balance a lot of hats, many responsibilities. And we are good at some of what we do, and not all.One thing we tend to do in invest in our business because we understand it, AND we think we can sell it for our retirement. Let's talk.No real plan- according to a recent survey by The American College most small business owners don't have a formal plan to achieve their financial objectives. Many have not sought the help of a professional to figure out what they might need and what they have. Some have used pencil and paper to make simple calculations about their futures.No one to rely upon- As a business owner I like to do things myself. I heard someone on a business show once say, "I've worked for myself so long, I am almost unemployable.' We're a quirky group. But we are smart and we do recognize that we 're experts in our field. Of course that means, other folks might be experts in THEIR respective fields and may be able to help us with their expertise. When it comes to exit strategies and retirement planning talking to an expert could help you think of things you hadn't considered. You do so much yourself. Retirment is too important to not talk over with someone you trust. The earlier you discuss things the more time you have to plan and adjust what you're doing for a smooth transition later.Selling the business for retirement- Many business owners plan on selling their businesses for their retirement nest-egg. But we don't always realize the value of the business and sometimes think we can get more than may be realistic.Many things add up to create your business' valuation. These are some basics to remember. Are you the main person, the 'key employee' who when you're gone there are no sales or no expertise? If the business has to be sold suddenly, you will potentially get less than if you have two to four years to sell. The health of your local economy at the time of sale will impact the sale price. What valuation model do other, similar businesses use to value their business? How much would it cost to start this business from scratch? Many things go into the sale. You don't want to have worked so well for this long to have things go array. 'Be careful for your retirement and of having all our eggs in one basket.' Get some advice and have a beautiful future!

2005 St. Louis Cardinals
Manager: Tony La Russa
Regular season record: 100-62 (.617), first in National League Central Division
Won NL Division Series over San Diego Padres (3-0)
Lost NL Championship Series to Houston Astros (4-2)
Staff Comments (individual rankings in parens)
Ray Mileur (15) The Cardinals reached the coveted 100-win mark and posted the best record in the National League for the second season in a row. The season started with the Cardinals winning the final home opener in the old Busch Stadium and I'll never forget the pitching matchup between Mark Mulder and Roger Clemens on April 23, with Mulder going the distance winning 1-0 over Houston. It was the best pitched game I ever witnessed in person.
It was the year the Cardinals were one strike away from getting knocked out of the playoffs in Houston, when Albert Pujols hit that famous three-run homer in the top of the ninth in Game Six of the NLCS to send the series to a Game Seven. The Cardinals lost Game 7, 5-1, in what would be the final game played at Busch Stadium, to close out another very emotional season. Demolition of our old friend, the old ballpark began about three weeks later. Chris Carpenter was named the 2005 National League Cy Young Award winner, the first Cardinal to win the award since Bob Gibson in 1970.
Jerry Modene (5) After having finally gotten past the NLCS barrier in 2004 only to be swept in four by the Red Sox in the World Series, the 2005 Cardinals led the race virtually wire-to-wire, taking over first place nine games into the season and extending that lead to 16 full games by September 13, having won 89 and lost only 49 in that span.
While the "MV3" took a huge hit with Scott Rolen's shoulder injury, Abraham Nunez filled in admirably for the injured star and Albert Pujols finally got past Barry Bonds and won a long-overdue Most Valuable Player award. On the mound, the five main starters made all but two of the team's starts, led by eventual Cy Young Award winner Chris Carpenter. 2005 marked the first time that two Cardinals won MVP and the Cy Young in the same season (Bob Gibson received both awards in 1968).
Ultimately, the season ended on a down note when the team lost to Houston in the NLCS – after one last thrill provided by Pujols when he homered off Brad Lidge to win Game Five.
Brian Walton (13) This is the only club in my personal top 15 that did not play in the World Series. In my scoring system, that was balanced by the presence of both the Cy Young Award winner, Chris Carpenter, and NL Most Valuable Player, Albert Pujols, on the club. This is the only time in history that two different Cardinals earned these honors in the same season. Along with those two, three other top all-time Cardinals were on Tony La Russa's team: pitcher Jason Isringhausen, third baseman Scott Rolen and outfielder Jim Edmonds.
This club was consistent in so many ways, holding down first place from April 16 until the playoffs began. They logged identical home and away records at 50-31 while taking their fifth division title in six years. The defense logged a franchise-best 196 double plays.
There were a number of strong individual performances, too. Pujols finished in the top five in the league in 12 different categories. His 41 long balls made the all-time top ten single season list for the club and his 27 intentional walks are third-most in team history. Isringhausen's 39 saves rank sixth most in a single Cardinals season. Carpenter's strikeout to walk ratio of 4.18 was fifth-highest in franchise history.
Rob Rains (NR) After winning their first NL pennant in 17 years in 2004 but being swept by the Red Sox in the World Series, there was only one way for the 2005 Cardinals to be a better club. It didn't quite happen that way, but the team came close.
For the first time since 1943-1944, the Cardinals produced a second consecutive 100-win season, falling from 105 wins to 100, still enough to win the division by 11 games. Albert Pujols won the MVP Award and Chris Carpenter the Cy Young, the first time players on the same team won the two major awards in the NL since Terry Pendleton and Tom Glavine of the Braves did it in 1991.
After a riveting seven-game series win over Houston in the 2004 NL Championship Series, the Astros emerged on top this time, in six games, with the final game on October 19 marking the final game ever at the old Busch Stadium.

ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistan's Supreme Court ordered the arrest of the prime minister on Tuesday on corruption allegations, ratcheting up pressure on a government that is also facing street protests led by a cleric who has a history of ties to the army.
The combination of the arrest order and the mass protest in the capital, Islamabad, led by Muslim cleric Muhammad Tahirul Qadri, raised fears among politicians that the military was working with the judiciary to force out a civilian leader.
"There is no doubt that Qadri's march and the Supreme Court's verdict were masterminded by the military establishment of Pakistan," Fawad Chaudhry, an aide to Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf, told Reuters.
"The military can intervene at this moment as the Supreme Court has opened a way for it."
However, the ruling coalition led by the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has a majority in parliament and lawmakers can simply elect another prime minister if Ashraf is ousted. In June, Ashraf replaced Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani, who was disqualified by the Supreme Court in a previous showdown between the government and the judiciary.
Elections are due in a few months and President Asif Ali Zardari hopes to lead the first civilian government in Pakistan's 65 years as an independent nation that will complete its full term.
But power struggles will distract the unpopular government from tackling an array of problems - a Taliban insurgency, economic stagnation and growing sectarian tensions triggered by bomb attacks and tit-for-tat shootings.
The military, which sees itself as the guarantor of Pakistan's stability, has long regarded the PPP-led government as corrupt, incompetent and unable to prevent the nuclear-armed country from falling apart. Continued...

But, drawing in the Purple Haze of the canals and coffee shops of Amsterdam was as perfect a way as any to round off the last 28 months. I traipsed about the red light district, just to pass the time of course, still being shocked by various sights such as big old black wifies with squint teeth and ginger hair peering provocativley at me out of the many red framed, full-length windows that adorn all the side streets round the Dam. Militant cyclists on the warpath - WHOOOSH - "that wis ma toes ya bas!". Boats full of bufties floating past on old dingies, in tight denim panties rubbing KY jelly on each other. Wrinkly rasta dudes, wi long dreds standing in the middle of the street chuckling away; when I clocked him with a razor nonchalantly chopping up a wrap of white powder, he growled - "wanna bite?!". All this on a beautiful summers day, 28 degrees in the Dam today, the last sun I'm likely to see until I leave Scotland again. But right now, although it's very sad this huge global odyssey is finally over, irrespective of what others may say, the world IS vast and you can't step on every stone; at least not in one go! Terribly missed family and friends are beckoning and it's got to End.
