Fun read for teens and comic book fans
By Anonymous

Comments about oreilly Hackerteen:
When I picked this book up, my first thought was "This is a very non-traditional O'Reilly book". I dare say, this is O'Reilly's first technology book published in comic book form. But it absolutely makes sense as to why they did it. Take your typical teenager. How many of them would willingly pick up a "traditional" computer book to read up on open-source, linux, and internet crimes? Unless they're uber-geeky, I'd say pretty much none of them would do that. This is what is so absolutely perfect about this book: it's exactly what I would have picked up as a teen--both for fun and as a way to learn more about technology. The story is about Yago, a young assistant teacher at "Hackerteen", an elite school for gifted computer students. While trying to get some money to help his family out of a tough situation, he writes a program he shouldn't have. Shortly after, he must race to undo the damage his actions have done. This is a graphic novel, which is a lot of fun to read. It shows teens examples of risky internet behavior and what some of the serious consequences of that behavior can be. I'd highly recommend this book for teens who want to learn more about internet technologies and ways to protect themselves online. It's a fun read and I loved the drawings. I can't wait for volume 2!

Review Hackerteen Internet blackout - volume 1
By JWiegel
Review Hackerteen Internet blackout - volume 1As a programmer and father of 4 sons I decided to see if this book could help me to teach my boys the good and bad sites from the internet.The book is well produced, it looks fine and attractive. (It's a comic book )The story starts with a for me familiar scenario, a boy who spends a lot of time on the internet playing games, chatting en poking around on social networks.After that his parents bring him to Hackerteen an educational project that trains teenagers to work with computer security. (see www.hackerteen.com)The rest of the story points out some potential bad uses of the internet and shows what the community can achieve while working together as a team.I liked the web links in the story directing you to the Hackerteen website explaining internet and programming termsThe hackerteen website states:"HackerTeen has no intent of creating hackers, much less crackers, though we do show young people the road to take in order to become an ethical hacker by providing them with the necessary skills to do so."I think this book will help them to achieve this goal. I'm curious for the next volume.

Anything that my 14 year old son manages to read and feedback on can't be bad!After being berated for offering him up to review a book I was astounded to find that he not only read it but enjoyed it and is hoping to be asked to review the next installment.His comments were;Fab lay out - really enjoyed the comic book styleLoved the charactersLoved the paceAnd finally found it interesting and informativeOK so the comments are in grown-up speak but hopefully the sentiments are conveyed!
Beautiful art work...
By joshSVUG
I'm a technologist, no loner a teen... so my review may be meaningless :) The book (comic) is easy to read and beautifully done but the content/story is a bit "light" and lacking specifics.From the back cover of the book:"As you follow Yago and his hacker buddies in their fight against crackers, the bad guys of the internet world, you'll learn * How Internet technologies work * How some people try to hurt others online * Key ways to protect yourself * How people can work together on the Internet to make the world a better place"I think the book fails on the topics of how the internet works and how to protect oneself. There are references in the book to resources on the Hackerteen website with some additional information... making the book a companion to the web site.Let's wait to see what real teens have to say about the book. If you know a teen how read the book, please encourage them to write a review!

As a fan of both tech and comic books, I thought Hackerteen was a very skilled effort.I have a young niece, and in a couple of years I will pass this on to her. She is proficient on safe uses of the Internet, under careful supervision of her mother. As she enters her early teens, this will be a fun introduction to the computer world as we know it. My involvement with social networking sites is well known in my family, and I would take comfort knowing she has the knowledge bestowed by this graphic novel.Hackerteen deals with safety of information, real world problems; such as banking and running a business, as well as genetic coding and the infiltration of evil large corporations into our society.On the first few pages I noticed footnotes to hackerteen website, explaining key terms such as 'DNS (domain name servers).' The information on the website is well written for the young audience and thorough.Hackerteen as a graphic novel does not disappoint. The art and colors are beautiful and the story as it folds out is cool. A team of young hackers (which is not used as a bad term) put their problem solving skills to the test as they contribute ideas to solving a global problem. At the very least, this promotes open source to our future programmers, but at the most it was a fun read! At one time being a 14 year old with my trusty old Commodore 64 cataloging my comic collection, this would have been a welcome addition to my shelf. I've composed this review without spoilers, but that being said, Hackerteen Volume 1 does what all good comics do: leave you waiting for the next issue. I look forward to that day, and hope it is not too far away. Hackerteen left me with a positive outlook on the future of computers in our society, and the hope we can give our next generation of Hackers.

I received a copy of Hackerteen from being a member of the OReilly Media group on Facebook. As the name goes, this is targeted toward teens and if I place myself into a 13 year old's mind it would have been immensely enjoyable. From a 30 year old's point of view, it is still enjoyable but you realize it is a bit idealistic. So first off, the good parts of this book. There is a young hero out to save the world. Which teenage male can't identify with that? The graphics are clean and crisp and the text is easy to read. The storyline starts off a bit flat but gets interesting toward the middle and I do wonder how the second volume will turn out. There are hyperlinks given as footnote on pages where new terms are being talked about.The not so good parts. Stereotypes abound, certainly there is some value to them, but there is loner hacker, the rich, ditzy girl clueless about technology, most of the bad guys are fat and ugly and all that. The protagonist is a bit too nice throughout. Seriously, most teenage hackers I have known came in through the dark side even if they turned out good later on. The book also seems to be trying to reclaim the term hacker to be a positive term. I personally think it is a lost cause but good luck to the writers.

Hi guys,
There has been a post in the 1 series section, however I know that not many ventrue into that area often so, i've been told by 1 dealer that I can have CC retro fitted to the car for about £450. The dealership where I got my car from has said it would be £520. Its basiclaly just the new stalk, new underside housing for the steering collum and programing it on diagnostics.
They put random stuff on the car but didnt bother with Xenons and CC, however they did bother with active steering (which in my poinion could have been left off and CC fitted instead) anyways it turns out that I was correct when my car started making a strange noise from the steering wheel and the steering rack is shot! However they had the car for a day to strip it down, check it out and fit new alloys, but they 'forgot' to tell me that they hadn't doen anything to the steering as they needed the parts. This only became aparent when I phoned them the next again day to ask what they had done and why my car wasn't back the way I gave it to them.
Anyway my thoughts are, seen as they are going to be fitting a new steering rack on the car maybe they could see their way to fitting me Cruise Controll at the same time and I would only have to pay for the parts (and the diagnositcs).
Do you think I should be cheeky and ask? As i've had nothing but issues since I got the car in February.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 18.104.22.168
Forum Moderators: rogerd
BEFORE they leave, however, they write a two page "Swan Song" about why they are leaving, how they are sorry that it happened, who were their friends, who they don't like, why the forum sucks and they can't be on it anymore, etc, etc.
The end result is lots of drama that drags on forever and brings the morale of the whole forum down.
Has anyone been able to deal with this in an effective way? It seems like it happens once a month or so on our boards, and it drives me nuts.
Another forum that I am involved with has a fairly high bar to entry which has reduced turnover at the expense of membership size and overall traffic. (The bar is mainly there to prevent various levels of SPAMming...)
If you monitor/moderate your forum very closely maybe you cant take down their swan song post. Maybe put up something in its place like "Dan has just left the building and bids you all a fond farewell" or some such.
You might have to put a clause in your TOS covering a situation like this ie;
"no post bad mouthing the forum or other members"its your forum not theirs...KF
The only thing that came close to working was deleting the post, the resulting "what happened to so-and-so's post" thread, and any e-mail on the subject.
It feels unprofessional to do it but every other option lead to animosity developing between us and our users, fights between users, and wasted time.
As a webmaster, reply with a short "Good luck on your lifes journey, friend" and then lock the account. Don't feel a need to explain your actions in any other posts either, you're the webmaster so do what you must for your site.
If the bugger is tenacious he'll linger for a couple of weeks and perhaps bother others but not for much longer than that. Thankfully a short attention span is par for the course.
We treat it a bit differently - we give people the opportunity to say goodbye, and generally, try and say nothing but good things about them while it happens. We also let them delete their entire accounts - all their posts and other content contributions.
While sometimes it can drag out a bit, for the most part i think the "survivors" appreciate that we acknowledge everybody's rights to come and go as they please, with no hard feelings.
Departing members will still sow discord with private messages, emails, IMs, but there's no sense in providing them with a soapbox on their way out the door.
It's too bad, because sometimes a farewell thread would be appropriate and welcome, e.g., a member who is leaving the country, starting a tour of military duty, etc. I haven't found a way to write the TOS to distinguish between good and bad ones, though. Sometimes, the leaving member can be quite subtle but still turn the thread into a gripe session.
These members are often good at staying within the letter of the TOS but still being annoying. If they were TOS violators, they would have been banned and have no opportunity for their swan song.

Everybody wants movie star teeth. Braces and orthodontic work can take care of any crooked teeth, but how do they achieve those pearly white, perfect smiles? Yes, they have millions more dollars in the bank than we do, but that will not stop you from obtaining that perfect white smile with a few simple steps. Here then, are some of the things that you should remember as you try to brighten up your smile.
Go Professional
There are two ways in which a dentist can help you have whiter teeth. The first and more expensive of these is that they will whiten them using a machine. This is also the most effective way to have your teeth whitened, but only if you are willing to pay out! The second way is to get some whitening trays fitted and use peroxide gel that the dentist can give you. You will probably have to have the health and general condition of your teeth checked before either of these options.
Store Bought Options
There are tons of teeth whitening kits available for over the counter purchase these days. You can find multiple kinds of whitening strips in any big store. The effectiveness of these is often debated, but as a much cheaper alternative, they are worth a try. There are also many whitening toothpastes on the market.
Home Made
You can make your own whitening solutions using baking soda and/or hydrogen peroxide at home. Use them once a week for a whiter smile.
Eat Fruits and Vegetables
Apples, pears, oranges, lemons, grapes, spinach, broccoli, celery and carrots are all great foods to help reduce stains on your teeth, and these are not the only ones. Bottom line: eat plenty of fruits and vegetables for lighter teeth.
Watch What you Drink
Red wine, coffee, cranberry juice and cola are all drinks that have a great power to stain your teeth. Try to stay away from them if you can, but if you really must drink them, do so with a straw to reduce contact.
Don't Smoke
It's a no-brainer, but smoking is one way to guarantee a set of yellow, stained teeth.
If you really want the perfect white teeth, veneers are the way to go. They are also the most expensive option, but if you want flawless teeth, it is well worth the price you pay.
But Remember…Teeth are supposed to be yellow!
Teeth are naturally yellowish in color. There are ways in which we can make our teeth darker, but generally a healthy set of teeth will have a slight yellow shade. Excessive teeth whitening can be very bad for your teeth and their enamel, so try to use the techniques that build up your teeth rather than break them down. You will be glad you did in years to come!

MAHMUT UNVER , MAXS UNVER , SERHAT UNVER JIGA UNVER A Long Beach man was arrested in Island Park Thursday after he was allegedly spotted trying to sell gas hoses and a sign from a gas station he no longer owned.
According to police, at 2:40 p.m., officers responded to a disturbance at U.S. Petroleum on Long Beach Road. Police said Mahmut Unver, 41, was selling gas hoses and a sign from the station he no longer owned. He was arrested without incident.
After an investigation, cops said that in June of 2013, Unver used the alias Michael Berger to acquire a line of credit from a Tuxedo, NY-based oil company for gasoline deliveries. Deliveries were made from June to October of 2013, and Unver allegedly never paid more than $90,000 he owed for the deliveries.
Unver's charged with second- and third-degree grand larceny and will be arraigned Friday at First District Court in Hempstead.

Silver jewelry made a statement on the runway for Fall 2013 and we're seeing more and more of it everywhere we go! Give your gold pieces a rest and dress up your get-up with these stylish items that are sure to make a statement. SHOP.
Sure, gold is great, but it seemed to be all about silver on the runway for Fall 2013. From sparkling statement necklaces to crystal earrings, the trend was very prominent — and it's an easy way to update your wardrobe. While we're definitely seeing more silver than gold, eye-catching, larger-than-life statement pieces mixed in with dainty items still seems to be the way to rock the style. Because we like the trend so much we've rounded up our favorite pieces, just for you!
Jewelry Trends For Fall 2013 — Silver Jewelry:
Statement jewelry is the best way to dress up any outfit. If you're heading out from desk to dinner, simply adding on a statement necklace, a bold cuff, or a cool cocktail ring can instantly take your look from everyday to total glam. I also love the way it dresses up basic outfits, like jeans and a tee. Whether you decide to pile on your bracelets or keep it simple and chic with one major necklace, accessorizing is really what makes your outfit stand out.
From Balenciaga to Balmain, silver items and the use of crystals made a statement and dressed up the fall runways, really adding some sparkle to the collections — and that's exactly what you can do with our picks!
I'm a firm believer that accessorizing is a perfect representation of your own personal sense of style, so be sure to keep that in mind. If you don't love silver, pick a few items and mix and match with other metals. Layering and mixing metals still looks oh-so-cool and there really aren't any rules when it comes to dressing up your look.
Whether you start stocking up now or wait til the holiday season to sport the look you can't go wrong adding accessories to any outfit, so SHOP our picks and get ready to shine.

From the author of Eat, Pray, Love comes a remarkable new novel - a total deviation from Elizabeth Gilbert's 2006 bestseller, although just as likely to become a chart-topper.
In 1776, Henry Whittaker, the son of a gardener at Kew, is caught stealing botanical treasures from Joseph Banks.
Banks, described as "a beautiful whoring adventurous competitive adventurer", realises Henry possesses rare botanical gifts and decides to take advantage of them, giving the boy a choice between the gallows and the ocean.
During his time as a lowly cabin boy, Henry must have wished many times that he'd chosen death - life aboard the Resolution, during Captain Cook's final South Seas expedition, is no Sunday sail but Henry is strong and his saving graces are his intelligence and his abiding love of trees.
It is a brutal endeavour and lesser mortals would have perished but not Henry and, en route, he learns more than books could ever have taught him - not that he will ever learn to read. Unlike Cook, who is slaughtered in Hawaii, his body thrown back on deck before the crew's eyes, Henry survives five gruelling years at sea, and uses his wiles and his ruthless ambition to become rich.
Very rich. "Money seemed to love Henry. Money followed him around like a small excited dog."
In Holland, Henry takes an exceptionally intelligent and dour wife and together, severing all family ties, they move to America and make mountains of money from the fledgling pharmaceutical trade, creating an empire.
Into this newly rich and increasingly powerful family, a daughter is born and the story, which belongs to her, truly begins.
Alma is academically outstanding. As a child her education includes numerous languages (ancient and modern), maths, science and, of course, botany. Over time she carves herself a niche as an expert in bryology, the study of moss, which Gilbert makes the most fascinating thing on earth. Truly.
Sadly, Alma is also painfully homely and lacking certain confidences and this book is as much about her thwarted desires and disappointments as it is about her triumphs.
Although she fosters many deep academic friendships, mostly by letter, her relationships with people in the flesh are frequently awkward and she seeks solace in her microscopically narrow field and in the pleasure she can bring to herself.
Alma is an outstanding subject for a novel of this scope and, despite her extraordinary brain and education, it's not until her father's deathbed revelations does she realise that, for all her education, she knows nothing about herself or the world - which is why she finds herself, at the age of 51, on her way to Tahiti.
In part, this book is about the growth of scientific knowledge during the 18th and 19th centuries and it's also an examination of human nature, an instruction manual for accepting one's lot and making the most of it. Intellectually impressive and emotionally rich, the research alone is extraordinary.
Philosophy, botany, morality, gravity, slavery, sexuality, education for women, emancipation for slaves, thwarted desires, masturbation and the shame of sexual repression - The Signature Of All Things is clever, sad, funny, erotic at times and packed with all manner of discoveries. Simply put, this is a wonderful book, compelling, illuminating, knowing, historical, intelligent and even saucy.
One of the best books of the year.
The Signature Of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert (Bloomsbury $36.99, out on Tuesday)

USPS Accounting Services Denied a legitimate domestic insurance claim St. Louis Missouri
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I filed a dometic insurance claim with the USPS Domestic Claims, accounting services in St. Louis, MO on March 19. I had purchased some hummels and three of them were damaged during shipment. I then received a letter from the supervisor of domestic claims on March 21 stating that I was required to bring the original packaging materials, original mailing receipt, authentication of the items' value, etc to my local post office. I did as instructed on April 6. The clerk at the post office mailed in the required form that same day. I called accounting services on May 15 stating that I had not heard anything and she told me that they did not receive the necessary paperwork, etc. I went back to my post office and the claims clerk there did in fact send everything off. I then received a denial letter on May 21 which stated the claim was denied because they did not received the correspondence that was requested in the timeframe required. The clerk at the post office can not believe that it was denied and for the reason given.
I have appealed this decision and still have not heard from anyone. The on-line claim still says that it was denied.
I followed the instructions to a T and I just feel like they want to get out of paying the claim. They are jerking me around and I'm done being jerked around.
Any suggestions from anyone would be greatly appreciated. I'm even considering hiring an attorney. I'm at my wit's end. My next step will be to call the supervisor of domestic claims. They conveniently do not include a name and phone number! I have to jump thru hoops to obtain this information.

King Joker is a super talented rap artist with an incredible flow hailing from New Orleans. He has overcome more than his share of life's hurdles and managed to put all of that heartache, pain and suffering into his music. His new song, "I Know What Ima Do" featuring Siah and directed by Joe Blast is the latest masterpiece. This song is typical of the barrage of hits that you can expect to hear from King Joker this year.
MP3: dRes - "Wild Produce"
Courtesy Papa Smirf.
The Newark by way of Philly producer dRes shows and proves that his freshman effort has a seasoned sound with his debut release, Wild Produce. Conceived over a three year period, the self taught beat smith fuses worldly soundscapes over hard drums for a 16 track compilation which features several guest appearances from many of today's burgeoning and established hip-hop artists. Featured on Wild Produce include Guilty Simpson, Homeboy Sandman, Tanya Morgan, Stalley, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Count Bass D, Wordsworth, L.E.G.A.C.Y., Truck North, Median, Declaime and others.
MP3: Tuge - "The Auction"

Fresh off of the release of The Scrimmage, TUGE has vowed to hit the net hard in 2012. Having already leaked two joints this year thus far, the NY spitter continues to feed his growing fan-base with this week's "The Auction." Felix Snow's instrumenal provides the perfect off-kilter bounce to suit TUGE's bouncy flow, witty wordplay and clever catch phrases on this departure from the duo's traditional sound. If you aren't a hustler, you might need some translation from your local supplier.

Situated in the Upper Madison Valley in Sportsman's Paradise, Slide Mountain Ranch is a custom home on 20 acres enjoyed by vacation guests since 2006. Within miles of this home you will find unlimited recreational opportunities. Experience world-class trout fishing on the Madison River or if you prefer lake fishing, Wade Lake, Cliff Lake, Elk Lake, Hebgen Lake and Quake Lake are just a short drive away. Take a day off from fishing and enjoy hiking, biking, bird and wildlife watching in the public lands surrounding this home. Walk from the south east corner of the property into the Gallatin National Forest or Yellowstone National Park is a beautiful 30 minute drive away. There are 4 mountain ranges in view of the house, each with several trailheads.
With a cozy, rustic feel and all the modern amenities, Slide Mountain Ranch is the perfect vacation getaway. Bring your friends and family and experience paradise!
Main Level: What this location has to offer is just the beginning for this magnificent home. This home is everything you would expect to find and more in a place called "paradise." As you walk in from the large wrap-around deck you can not help but notice all the custom wood and log details found throughout the home.
Your eyes are immediately drawn to the wall of windows framing the Madison Range and inviting the Montana sunshine into the open living space.
The open floor-plan on the main level is ideal for visiting with family and friends after a day on the river or in the mountains. The vaulted wood ceilings, radiant floor heating and wood-burning fireplace fill the home with inviting warmth.
The bright living and dining area as well as the open kitchen are situated to capture the views created by the massive windows.
A spacious bedroom with wood beamed ceilings and a full bathroom with slate and wood accents complete this level.
Loft: High above the main living area, up the custom wood staircase you will find the spacious master suite. The knotty pine flooring, vaulted wood ceilings and numerous windows continue into this cozy space.
In the master bathroom is a jetted tub and separate shower surrounded by slate and wood as well as a one-of-a-kind vanity and fixtures.
This space is the perfect retreat after a long day of outdoor activities or an evening of visiting with family and friends.
Walkout Basement: This home would not be complete with out the full walkout basement. This level boasts the same mountain views and custom details as found throughout the rest of the home. A spacious family room with entertainment system, third airy bedroom and another bathroom are all located on this level. The unique finished concrete floor with radiant floor heating makes this space the perfect recreation area.
The deck surrounds three sides of the home offering views of the Centennial, Gravelly, Madison and Henry's Mountain Ranges. There is seating for eight and a large propane-fired grill right outside the kitchen door.
Beautiful home - just as described!
Just wanted to say that we had a
wonderful time at your place! It was truly a
peaceful vacation. We had 3 or 4 good hikes; I fished like crazy just down from Campfire Lodge and
did well with a Caddis hatch at 8:30 pm each and
every night! I even left one on the bank and turned around and something had nabbed it! I
hope it was small like a raccoon or otter and not
a bear!
The boys really enjoyed the night sky and meteor
The Slide Mountain Ranch in Madison Valley was superb! All of the amenities anyone could need, right down to condiments, saran wrap, etc. The home is gorgeous, with magnificent views. There is so much room in the house that everyone can gather together but still have privacy if needed. Excellent location! Close to West Yellowstone; an abundance of places to fish and hike. Hiking Sheep Creek Mountain is fantastic! We loved watching the antelope in the surrounding fields, the hummingbirds everyday on the porch, the coyotes, jack rabbits, big horn sheep, and moose nearby. Yellowstone is amazing! Visiting the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone is a must! Dinner at the Driftwood, a few miles down the road, was excellent with very friendly staff. The Slide Inn has great fishing supplies and licenses available. We rented a boat for half a day of fishing on Lake Hebgen from the Kirkwood Marina. Again, very friendly and helpful people. If you are looking for a laid back, relaxing but adventurous vacation surrounded by friendly folks, this is the place to be! We were so sad to leave such a beautiful place. If we ever return to Montana, we will be sure to contact Brian and Laura who are extremely helpful. This was definitely a vacation full of family memories that will not be forgotten! Thank you for sharing your amazing home!
Nothing but wonderful - and more.
When we arrived everything was 100% ready for our stay. Loved the big view from the living area. Each day we saw different wildlife on the drive in from a day in Yellowstone.
We were their celebrating my brothers 60th B Day and would highly recommend to any one that wants a quiet place to relax after a day of hiking.
This beautiful home is located only 30 minutes from the west entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Situated in the middle of beautiful meadows and hills on each side, it is a destination itself. There is a large wrap- around porch which is perfect to start or end your day on. The views are outstanding.
We have seen plenty of wildlife around the home. This includes pronghorns, badgers, field mice, birds, and even a wolf walking down the road near the home.
There are 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a well stocked kitchen, a very relaxing living area with plenty of seats, a second living area down stairs with a large TV. The inside has plenty of natural wood beams and wood finishes and is very spacious. The house has everything we needed (linens, kitchen supplies, gas grill, ice maker, microwave, coffee maker, etc...)
Near the home there are plenty of hiking of trails, fishing, boating and scenic drives. This has been the perfect place to stay for our Yellowstone vacation and we highly recommend this home!
Three couples spent 2 glorious weeks at Slide Mountain Ranch. Endless vistas across the Madison Valley were witnessed from the vantage of large living room windows. Accommodations were spacious with each couple enjoying privacy. The kitchen had all necessary appliances and the pantry was well stocked.
Best of all we had superb access to the Madison River, with only a 20 minutes drive to the best waters. As runoff had subsided the fish were hungry and eager for a host of dry flies that were presented.
When we didn't cook, we could grab a burger at nearby restaurants, and occasionally drove a short distance to
West Yellowstone.
Don't pass up a chance to stay at this wonderful accommodation.
Located in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, Slide Mountain Ranch is an outdoor recreation paradise. The property is approximately 30 miles from West Yellowstone and 40 miles from Ennis. Nearby rivers and lakes include the Madison River, Henry's Fork of the Snake River, the Ruby River, Henry's Lake, Quake Lake, Hebgen Lake, Cliff Lake, and Wade Lake. Numerous national forest trail heads and Yellowstone National Park provide limitless possibilities for exploring the back country. Recreational activities include fly fishing, lake fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, biking, mountain biking, and horseback riding just to name a few. Wildlife viewing in this diverse ecosystem provides glimpses of grizzly bears, black bears, moose, elk, deer, mountain goats, big horn sheep, and numerous birds of prey including the Bald Eagle. Summer is an active and busy season in the Madison Valley with art festivals, fly fishing festivals, classic car and motorcycle rallies, bike tours, and rodeos.

Sometimes our hearts tell us things.
When we lived in town we had a neighbor who would put her hand up to the right side of her face, like a blinder, whenever she left her house. One day I asked her why. She pointed to the new buildings in the ravine at the end of our street. "Those houses--I can't bear to see them," she said. "My children used to play there. It was all woods. We had picnics--"
Her voice broke, and she didn't finish her sentence.
But her meaning was clear:
We bond with landscape just as we do with people, and the breaking of those bonds hurts just as much.
But growth is the one thing our modern capitalist society cannot do without. When housing-starts fall off, the economy is in trouble. When people stop buying consumer items, the economy is in trouble. Expansion, constant expansion, is what we need. Therefore, we are trained to suppress stabs of grief such as my neighbor felt. "Well, that's progress," we are supposed to say, resignedly, when a highway, shopping mall, or subdivision replaces the greenspace we had loved.
But our hearts keep talking.
Enter writers, whose job it is to hear heart-speech and then express it through their own creations.

Great job! It's gorgeous.
Really, the hairstyle isn't all that difficult to do... it only takes a ridiculous amount of hair (thankfully, the model's hair was so thick and full I didn't need one strand of extensions... it's all hers!)
This seems so Joel Peter Witkin, with out the dead bodys,
Love the retouch gives a very antique feel to it.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
There are ways to cover up your feed dogs if they don't drop down. There must be something on you tube
As a vintage/antique machine collector, 26 in the stable, and new to quilting, January of this year, I had the good fortune of a seasoned quilter, my sister, who has completed over 200 quilts in the last 20+ years. I also get advice from the lady who does all of our long arm quilting. I started in January at the invitation to join my sister in a placemat sewing class and as you can guess, it was far from perfect but the bug bit and I really enjoy making various quilting projects. I have been doing wood working for over 50 yrs. and basically see quilting as similar to my woodworking projects. I see something I like, I make a plan(mental), acquire the materials and go at it. I seldom use a printed plan but prefer to proportion things. If it's too fat, thin it, too long, shorten it, too ugly, toss it. Remember beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and every thing I make is to please me. A plan is a plan weather working with wood or cloth. The cloth is my wood. The thread is my nail. It applies to either craft. The most important part in either hobby is accurate measurement. Old Norm(New Yankee Workshop) said it all, "measure twice and cut once", never were truer words spoken and this applies to quilting as well as woodworking. I just delivered my second quilt, a soldiers quilt, to Brite Hope Quilting, for their returning soldiers project. It's a lot of fun and very relaxing provided you don't make it a job like going to work-UCK!!. I am currently about half way through making my granddaughter a murphy bed and have finished the top of a quilt and almost finished the bottom so bed and quilt should come together in about 3 weeks if all goes well. I will take Kylee with the quilt to our quilting lady and let her pick out the pattern and the thread she would like to finish with. She will pick out the border material and I will finish with the binding. The binding will be top stitched and hand stitching on the back with mitered corners. The picture of the soldiers quilt was taken by Ms. Pearl(owner)when I delivered the quilt. Hope you enjoy.

I would love to find a mentor. I have pieced a handful of simple quilts, done some FMQ on my domestic machine and just got a 18" long arm. I am planning on working on skill building over the next 5-10 years while still doing my current job, eventually transitioning my working hours (in part or completely) to offering long arm quilting services as I have RA and I won't be able to continue full time in my current career as things progress with my disease.
I would love to have a quilting Mommy! I have made a few quilts, mostly baby/toddler size, but a couple bigger ones. I'm doing the QCA Mystery Quilt and having a hard time with my HSTs, as I have never done them before and assumed I could find YouTube videos for the ruler I bought, but was so wrong! I usually rely on videos or other people's suggestions when I get to a certain point. I'm out of practice as it was high school when I learned to quilt and got into it for a while. Having 2 lil ones around makes it harder, one was under my desk today and almost sewed my finger when she pushed the pedal with my hand in there threading the needle!!
I would love to find someone that I could work with. I have been sewing for a very long time, but really quilting only 6 or 7 years. I have found that no matter how long you have been at something, there is always something else to learn! I'd like to find someone in my neck of the woods (Michigan) to quilt with. I have taught many newbies, but am still learning myself!!

Holy cow! You did pick a pretty hard pattern to start with. Are you paper piecing it? I have not paper pieced anything yet, it is on my bucket list. Otherwise you have to do Y seams, which are very difficult to a beginner. Not impossible, though. I know this post is old, so I am hoping that you have solved your problem by now!! If not, send me a PM.

I would love any kind of help to make a quilt. I have been on here for a few years but never got around to making a quilt or even trying too.
I tried the "adoption" routine before but my contact simply petered out. If you want a "mad woman" as your mentor, please give a shout. I am pretty good at this piecing and quilting "thang" and I love to share what I know. The only thing I don't like is English paper piecing (like hexies). I still suck at FMQ but that is actually an improvement. My most controversial activity: I killed Sunbonnet Sue. If there is a kindred newbie spirit out there, send me a pm.

I have been quilting both piecing and hand quilting for a loooong time.lol. I would love to help someone. I am not really computer intelligent but can get someone to help me with that. I do needleturn applique also. I just finished a Dear Jane. I have a sewing-bedroom and it can be a booby trap. My daughter who is a clean freak(dont tell her I said that) shudders when she sees my room . I live in Antlers,Ok. but as I say computer available,camera ready and someone always willing to help me do what ever. !!!! Let me hear from someone. Last time I did this I did not get a single reply.

Mouth Ulcers
The mouth is one of the most sensitive areas of the body so when kids get ulcers there, the pain and discomfort can be intense. Mouth ulcers are extremely common in kids, especially from puberty onwards and they can form anywhere within the mouth, including on the tongue or the gums and on the inside of the lip. Most often they are caused by viral infection. If you look inside your child's mouth you'll see a red, white or greyish lump of anything between a couple of millimetres and centimetre in diameter. Mouth ulcers may be so painful that they make eating or even talking difficult. So what causes them, and what's the best treatment?
Ulcers arise when an infection gets into a cut or graze inside the mouth. Those cuts can be the result of chewing something tough, accidentally biting the mouth, brushing the teeth too hardm, or from eating something very hot or cold. Occasionally ulcers can be an allergic reaction to certain types of food and if your child already has an ulcer, salty snacks like crisps and fizzy drinks or very spicy foods, can make them worse. Kids are more likely to develop ulcers when they are tired, stressed or run down. Being low in iron or folic acid, which are found in fruit, veg and fish, can also make kids more susceptible, but sometimes ulcers appear for no obvious reason at all.
Ulcers aren't infectious so they can't be caught or passed on to anyone else.
Ulcers usually pass within a week and often it's just a question of waiting until they clear up of their own accord. Your pharmacist will be able to provide certain ointments, and kids can also rinse their mouths out with a warm salt water solution. (Don't let them swallow this though as it makes them sick!)
Mouth ulcers are often recurrent, so just because you've got rid of one, it doesn't mean you child isn't at risk from developing another. If, however, a single ulcer lasts for three weeks or more, let your doctor take a look in order to rule out any other more serious infection or condition.

My child has a black ulcer is it normal what should I do
It is probably not normal, mabye its actually grey and appears black but you can never be too safe so you should probably see a gp or a doctor
I have had mouth ulcers for many years im a healthy eater don't drink sugary drinks on a regular basis but they just keep coming back! The doctors have taken blood tests and nothing came back unusual ive tried everything and every type of medication possible but nothing works? could you recommend anything?
I have a massive ulser on the stretchy bit of underneath my lip in so much pain and cant eat tea tonight cos having curry
My daughter is 6 and is getting quite a few mouth ulcers all the time would it be recommended I take her doctors
I have an ulcer that I have had for nearly two weeks now and the pain is unbearable literally I need to find a way of curing it its giant. Putting salt water and wooshing it around is soso painful please say that there is other ways that are less painfull !! 😩😣😤😭👿
My son age 5 has lots of small mouth ulcers on his tongue. He had a recent bout of toncillitis. Is finding it difficult to eat but is always hungry. Was wondering if there's anything that may help.also has tummy ache quite often
Help!! I have a big ulcer in my mouth! And round the side its all yellow and in the middle of the ulcer is a black greyish dot what do I do I cant even speak its that painful! im perfectly healthy what do I do to solve this
Hi my daughter is 3 and I have just found 4 ulcers in her mouth she is just crying all the time with them what could of caused them in a child so young or can you get them at any age.
Get some bonjela or igluu, they are both mouth ulcer treatments. Igluu you can buy over the counter at somewhere like boots. Apply a little bit every night until the ulcers go away. Or as a cheaper alternative, you can create a salt saline. Mix 3 teaspoons of salt with a good splash of luke warm water and just make your daughter gurgle it around her mouth, but don't let get swallow it as it tastes horrible. Hope this helps
I had two one on each side of my mouth I found it very hard to eat . I have had them for about nine days.it started on a Sunday I thought I had just bitten it but it turned into a nightmare and I haven 't found a cure for it yet Please help :(
Hi my daughter of 6 has 5 on her lips 3 in the upper inside mouth at 2 round the sides .i rang the doctors and they said it's tonsilitious because I said her glands are up . He then prescribed me penicillin and it is nearly all gone with nothing really working ... Olsers are still there and tonsils still swollen . At my wits end as she won't even have liquids like ice cream now as she's complaining of the pain in her teeth too ...... Help please
Hi ,my son went through exactly the same.They gave him penicillin and the had and allergic reaction to it!My friend said she used corlum pellets and they really help! Good luck,hope she gets better soon.
My daughter has exactly the same thing. She also had fever and was in so much pain. Antibiotics were not working. After numerous visits to the doctors ,blood tests and mouth swabs it was confirmed she had a nasty virus called gingivostomatitis. It was a 10 day contagious virus. Only contagious through saliva. So if you share cups, kiss etc. perhaps this is what your child had. Might be Worthing reading up about it cause doctors said once they have this they are then very prone to getting cold sores and mouth ulcers from here on. This all happened back in January 2014 and now (March 2014) we have had her on medication for more ulcers but they have cleared up quickly.

|Route Climbed: Easton Glacier Date Climbed: June 19, 2005
|Fun, easy, glacier climb on a (mostly) gorgeous day! A little white-out came up while we were on the summit and made the descent a little more exciting, but that cleared up before long.
|Posted Jun 23, 2005 8:05 pm
|Route Climbed: Coleman - Deming Date Climbed: May 27 - May 28, 2005
|We left at 9:30pm from the Heliotrope Ridge Trailhead and summitted at 5:15am. It was a warm evening, so the snow below the Black Buttes was soft. But, once we got up to the saddle, the snow had set up pretty good. The Roman Wall was still steep (of course), but we were able to kick steps in the firm snow.
Watch out below the Black Buttes. We stumbled onto a couple of small open crevasses. Glad we decided to rope up there.
Overall it took about 13 hours car to car.

|Kind of disappointing to see snow mobilers on the summit after the long slog to the top but as always it was worth it. You could literally play football on Baker's summit, it's huge up there.

|Route Climbed: Coleman-Deming Date Climbed: June 1, 2004
|Nice climb, but not really technical.
There was A LOT of snow (waist-deep in places), so we had to posthole all the way up, which was sort of painful -- but I perversely enjoyed it ;)
We had a very short window of clear-visibility weather (about 5 hours) during which we made most of the ascent (plus a couple of 1-2 hour windows next day). The rest of the time it was complete or near-complete whiteout (incl. the summit). We had to rope up and mark our way (to avoid getting lost on the way down).
We originally planned to go to the North-West ridge, but did not go there due to the weather conditions.

|Fantastic solo climb, but I didn't even have time to finish my sandwich on the summit because it was instant blizzard time. Too bad the storm was invisible over the ocean, and I must have mistook the first wisps of clouds for an innocent orographic effect. Western sky was clear only 5 minutes before the snow hit. Needless to say, my descent was a bit trickier than the ascent. ~1000 ft below, it was a beautifully calm snowfall.

|See Brian Jenkins's entry below. The route was very broken up, but covered with a few inches to a couple feet of new snow. We had to posthole across wind-deposited snow on the summit snow dome. There were some questionable snow bridges and newly covered crevasses. Incredible views -- equal to the best I've seen.

|This climb was the best I have done till date! Thanks to Troy (tnorm) and his friend Sergei for letting us (me and my friend Lu) rope up with them. The route was an amazing zig-zag through a whole maze of crevasses, many of them HUGE. I punched through one of them till my waist, but it wasn't too deep. Sergei and Troy decided to go ahead unroped for the last section (and left us behind) as they thought we were not moving fast enough. It was very windy from 6:00 am till around 8:30 am. We got past the Roman wall when they were returning form the summit. I decided to turn back with them, even though the summit was just 400 ft away. Luckily, the weather stayed stable and we did not have any problems while returning. We had to avoid many of the snow bridges that we had used on our way up as the snow had become mellow by the time we returned. Overall, it was an amazing route with awesome views. Despite not reaching the summit, I consider this climb as a success for me.

|We stripped our equipment down to the barest, lightest possible load for this two-day climb. One tent for the five of us. It had been a relatively warm night, so the Easton Glacier was a little soft the morning of July 4. My colleagues, Scott Patterson, Mark Fowlkes, Clay Parks, Tomas Kellner, and I left our campsite low on the Glacier at around 4 a.m. and reached the summit at roughly 9 a.m. The summit was chilly, windy and only partially sunny. We huddled for a half hour there eating our lunch. Scott and I had climbed this route in August 2001, but we enjoyed revisiting it with our friends. We were all a little tired from our climbs of Shuksan and Rainier earlier in the week. I hope the five of us climb together again in 2005. I can't imagine five people I'd rather spend time with in the mountains. Thanks, gents. Stephane Fitch

Not that it's a sign but Patriots individual tickets will go on sale Friday
|07.13.11 at 5:32 pm ET
The Patriots were very careful to keep the right perspective on Wednesday's announcement that individual game tickets for all home games will go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. ET.
"As a reminder to last month's announcement, individual game tickets to the Patriots' home games this year will be made available for sale through Ticketmaster on Friday, July 15, 2011 at 10:00 a.m.," Wednesday afternoon's media advisory read. "The New England Patriots annually cap season ticket sales, leaving a limited number in reserve for Patriots fans who wish to attend just a game or two each season. Those tickets will be released for sale through Ticketmaster. Visa, a proud sponsor of the National Football League and the New England Patriots, will once again be the only form of payment accepted for Patriots tickets."
The team went on to explain that all ticket orders will be processed through Ticketmaster and that tickets will NOT be sold at the Gillette Stadium Ticket Office. Ticket orders can be completed online at ticketmaster.com or by phone by calling 800-745-3000.
In recent years, all regular season tickets sold out within minutes. If that occurs again this year, 2011 will mark the 18th consecutive season that the Patriots have announced a complete sellout prior to the start of the regular season.
The Patriots' streak of consecutive sellouts is currently 181 games, one contributing factor in the team's rise to one of the most successful in all of sports. Forbes released its Top 50 most valuable franchises in world sports and the Patriots came in at No. 6. The streak began in 1994, the year that Robert Kraft purchased the franchise. The streak includes all preseason, regular season and postseason games since Sept. 4, 1994.
Per the Patriots, the on-sale information for purchasing individual game tickets to Patriots games in 2011 is listed below:
On-Sale Date: Friday, July 15, 2011
Time: 10:00 a.m. ET
Where: All ticket orders will be processed by Ticketmaster. Order online at ticketmaster.com or by calling Ticketmaster toll free at 800-745-3000. Tickets will NOT be sold at the Gillette Stadium Ticket Office. For wheelchair accessible seating, please call 508-384-9191.
Limits: To extend the opportunity to fans throughout the region, the Patriots have once again set limits to the number of tickets fans can buy. Those limits have been set at four tickets per game.
A seating map and ticket information can be found at http://www.patriots.com/tickets/single-game.html. If any games are cancelled this season, fans who purchase individual game tickets will be offered a refund. Refunds will be paid no later than 30 days after final determination of how many games will be played during the 2011 NFL season.
The Patriots' home opponents for the 2011 season are listed below.
