Loved this recipe! Reminded me of a healthy holiday meal. Next time I will tried dried cranberries instead of the raisins!
Delicious! I poured the leftover stuffing over the chicken and baked it all as one. Chicken was juicy and full of flavor
Ok….didn't read the recipe before going shopping! Anyway..little help here. Any thoughts on how to modify this recipe if your thighs are boneless, skinless? Primarily I'm concerned with the Oven Temp, the time and of course, how to apply the apple mixture. Thanks!
I made this with boneless/skinless thighs. Everything was the same (cook time, temp, and all) except I put a scoop of the apple mix below and on top of each thigh instead of stuffing it between the skin and the meat.
This is really tasty, but a lot of work.
We really liked this! I prepped everything the night before and it was so simple to pop in the oven when I got home from work. Cooked perfectly and was so flavorful. I served with mashed cauliflower.
I am new to this diet (was recommended by my Dr.). I see alot of "Mashed Cauliflower". How would you prepare that? Does it taste like potatoes? Different spices perhaps?
I used chicken breasts instead of thighs. Just like stuffed chicken, you cut a pouch in the breast. I had to do it this way because the only organic chicken available around here in this dinky small town (which aren't grown locally) are breasts. It was still good <3
Seriously? 90 minutes is too long for a weeknight recipe.
Oh, WOW. This recipe was FANTASTIC – I served with some spiced butternut squash (microwave squash + nutmeg/allspice/cinnamon/coconut oil = YUM), and some steamed broccoli.. was a mini Thanksgiving dinner for me, plus lots of leftovers.
I added an extra egg, and subbed coconut oil for olive, and it came out great. :)
I agree with jshell, 90 minutes just to cook is way too long. Its cooking right now and I got surprised with all the prep and then the time to cook too?.
I enjoyed this recipe a lot! Made a double batch for leftovers.
I notice no nutrition information is posted. Any plans to add that? I use this info daily.
Oh, I've done something like this with vegetables. Just raw carrots, green pepper, and onion chopped up real small (minced?) and mixed together. I just sort of eyeball it so I can't give measurements but it should look like about equal amounts of each when mixed together. Season to taste and stuff under the skin. I don't bother with basting them and it still turns out fine. I might see if the celery and garlic livens things up. (not that I thought it was boring but I've got a lot of great ideas from this variation!)
I never thought about doing it with fruit! And the addition of nuts might work with the veggies too. I might give this specific recipe a try in the future. Right now my dad is needs to lose a lot of weight and is diabetic so I'm a little hesitant to use the sweeter fruits like apple and raisins (grapes) just yet.
Hi, I thought it tasted great! I cooked it for the hour and it was still pretty raw so I nuked it the rest of the way. I cooked it at 350. Was it supposed to be hotter? Thank you!
I do not want to use aluminum foil due to the aluminum in it. What else can be used to cover a bowl in the oven? Thanks, B

Another new foe for Mike Jones!
Veteran Lenin Arroyo has stepped in to replace Ben Tackie against unbeaten Mike Jones on Saturday evening, Aug. 8, at Bally's Atlantic City. At stake in the scheduled 10-round contest will be Jones' world ranking and his North American Boxing Association (NABA) title. Medical issues KOd the 36-year-old Tackie , himself a late replacement for Jones' original foe, Larry Mosley, who backed out last weekend after poison from a growth on his face got into the fighter's bloodstream, necessitating surgery. "It's been a frustrating year for Mike," said Hall-of-Fame promoter J Russell Peltz. "Mosley canceled out on him in March with a back injury and Mike had to cancel out on Mosley in June with his own medical issues. In this case, the third time was not the charm.
"He was looking forward to fighting Mosley, then Tackie, but it wasn't meant to be. Mike has only boxed five rounds in the last 11 months. He needs to fight anyone who will get into the ring with him. Contenders are not exactly lining up."
Arroyo, 29, is originally from Costa Rica. Like Tackie, he has never been stopped, compiling a (20-9-1, 4 KOs). He got off the floor in 2006 and lost by decision to ex-WBO world junior welterweight champion Randall Bailey, one of the hardest punchers around.
A pro since 2002, Arroyo has beaten Angel Chacon, Ener Julio, Antonio Ramirez and Juan Carlos Rodriguez, all "fringe" contenders.
Jones, 26, is one of boxing's hottest prospects. His 17-0 record includes 15 knockouts and he won the vacant NABA title Aug. 29, 2008, when he KOd Juliano Ramos in six rounds at the New Alhambra in South Philadelphia.
In his first defense last March 6, Jones was set to fight Mosley, who had to cancel out five days earlier with a back injury. Instead, Jones KOd late sub Dairo Esalas, of Miami, FL, in two rounds at the Blue Horizon in North Philadelphia.
Two weeks prior to the re-scheduled fight with Mosley on June 6 at Bally's, Jones strained the bicep on his left arm and had to cancel.
A pro since 2005, Jones has beaten Doel Carrasquillo, of Lancaster, PA; Israel "Pito" Cardona, of Hartford, CT; Gilbert Venegas, of Moline, IL.
Jones' two hardest fights came last year against a pair of Chicago, IL, fighters.
In his only ESPN 2 appearance on March 28, 2008, Jones rallied in the last two rounds to earn an eight-round decision over Germaine Sanders at the Seneca Allegany Casino in Salamanca, NY. Then, last Dec. 5 at the Sovereign Center in Reading, PA in a fight televised by Telefutura/Univision, Jones shook off some early bombs and knocked out Luciano Perez in three rounds.
Jones is ranked No. 10 by the World Boxing Association (WBA), No. 12 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF), No. 13 by the World Boxing Organization (WBO), No. 26 by the World Boxing Council (WBC).
Five preliminary fights complete the show.

Have carried my 1911 in a Serpa on ocassion when riding. As of late I usually have my Ruger New Vaquero Stainless in a fast draw rig with the hammer leather tightened up. I would also be wearing my Cowboy Fast Draw outfit. Sometimes with my "Duster" tail trailing in the wind. Still, as Aborigine mentioned "...invisible..." even at traffic stop lights.
I wear a protective mesh armor jacket, and my IWB conceals just fine under that. So I never give it another thought. But AZ is fine for OC, so if it prints or flashes then no big deal.
"...whoever has no sword is to sell his coat and buy one." (Luke 22:36)
Christianity and Self Defense from a Biblical Perspective
I wear Rocket's "Alter ego" gear. For hot weather the jacket strips down to mesh below the shoulders. In 100+ weather I find it controls dehydration far better than riding in a t shirt, for long hot trips it is the way to go. I have ridden multiple days at 118 in the South West, and lived. Those arab nomads were onto something. I also wear the matching pants, they won't support IWB carry. Next jacket will have a mesh holster sewn inside, but no matter how you do it the idea of "concealed" means not flashing your weapon when pulling off gear at stops for food, gas, etc. I can do a shoulder rig, but it doesn't do you much good if it has to be under a shirt inside a jacket.
I don't always have nothing to say, but when I do, I post it on Facebook.
I just finished a week in Utah where I opened carried alot because of the heat. I also do it here as long as I am not in Denver. Last year I went to Va. I opened carried in a lot of states crossing the country. Only one MWG call in Kanasas.

If you all don't mind, I'd like to take this thread in a slightly different tangent?
Whether you OC or CC, can you riders tell me how you plan to use your sidearm WHILE riding, in the unfortunate event that it is necessary?
If you don't plan or need to use it while riding, then what is your alternate plan?
What I'm getting at is for those of us who ride, our hands are tied up operating the bike, therefore, it is highly unlikely that you will have the opportunity to clear leather/aim/shoot/reholster even if it was necessary AND still maintain operational control of your scooter.
Are there any experienced cycle-LEO who ride/rode as part of your job? If so, how were you trained in such matters?

I carry concealed IWB ... no problem with any gun I might carry. I also carry in a vest with an inside pocket area specifically made for a gun (j-frame or Kahr CW9 in that case). If this open carry in Wichita becomes legal, I may also open carry at times.

Chief Justice John Roberts : "I don't see how you can read Heller and not take away from it the notion that the Second Amendment...was extremely important to the framers in their view of what liberty meant."
Right off hand I can not think of any occasion where I would use my firearm while riding. I would probably use my riding ability as a way to hopefully escape instead. Would there be a case where a firearm would be a first choice over escape while riding?
While I have friends that are Motor Officers I never wanted to ride a bike on the job.
My plan is around my gear. I wear riding jeans (draggin Jeans) that are Kevlar lined. My boots are tall, near cowboy boot height. A dog should not bite through that. My fear is the dog trying to pull you from the bike or get under a wheel and cause a crash. I have OC clipped to the outside of the tank bag so off with a glove and OC spray away.
Sent using 2 cans and string
I carry IWB as I usually do everywhere else when I'm out on my bike. I did notice that a crotch rocket requires my shirt to be tucked in or else it becomes open carry, although I don't ride one of those regularly. I do have one in the garage that I've been meaning to sell.
IF someone were trying to take out your "cage" while carrying would it not be simpler just to disengage and flee. I think the same would apply to riding, even more so. Only if backed into a corner would defense by firearm become necessary. Of course, in a cage you have some concealement and cover available if you can position yourself. You would need to find that in the local environment if you dismount your ride.
I think shootouts while riding or driving only apply to movies and the occassional gang activity.

This gets into the fluid and collects throughout the transmission. This can cause valves to stick. Also, the valve body uses aluminum bushings around steel valves. The aluminum wears and the valves begin to catch on the ridges formed in the aluminum bushings. Some of these units used an aluminum valve body that wears in the valve bores and needs to be either repaired or replaced.
You could try servicing the trans fluid and filter and adding a product like Lubeguard. The Red Lubeguard is good for transmissions that take Dexron II or III. Lubeguard adds a little extra lubrication to the fluid and can help things move a little better. However, if this is a high mileage unit, you most likely need an overhaul which includes a thorough inspection of the valve body.
Thanks for your reply Doc,
Yes its only the 1-2 shifts that hold too long, the car only has 55k on the dash, trans has never been rebuilt at least to my knowledge (bought last year).
The T.V cable is fine, I didn't change it since I bought the car.
Changing the fluid and filter sounds good, any tips to do so?
I've never changed atf or even dropped the pan (my first car)

Valentino Rossi has played down Ducati's chances of fighting for MotoGP title glory in 2012 - but is optimistic the Italian manufacturer will be closer to the front this year.
After a difficult 2011 campaign, where neither Rossi nor team-mate Nicky Hayden won a race, Ducati is hoping that its new GP12 bike will deliver a good step forward in the forthcoming season.
But despite high hopes that the machine will be an improvement, Rossi concedes that making the step from where Ducati was last year to becoming title winner in 2012 is probably too much to expect.
"The championship is difficult because the gap in 2011 was quite big," said Rossi during a press conference at the annual Wroom Ducati and Ferrari media event at Madonna di Campiglio on Tuesday.
"Our target is to fix problems step by step, and try to come closer to Yamaha and Honda. And from that moment, start to fix all the details, to be competitive for the victory."
When pushed further on his belief that the title was not possible in 2012, Rossi replied: "I do not want to say from the start that I cannot fight for the championship, but I have to be realistic.
"In the end there was 1.5 seconds we have to recover, and our target is to get close to the others and be able to race with them and fight with them. This is our goal."
Ducati's new GP12 bike was off the pace in the post-season Valencia test and, although improvements should bring it closer to the front in the forthcoming pre-season run in Malaysia, Rossi is not expecting an instant transformation in form.
"I think that the first test will be important, and for sure the bike will be different compared to last year," he explained. "It is impossible to be competitive from the first test, but I think we will have some good information to work with, and be ready for the first race."
Rossi is sure, however, that with good work from himself and Ducati, results will come soon – and that things will definitely be better than they were last season.
"Last year was a lot worse because from the first test we understood that the season will be very tough and difficult," he explained. "After three laps we understood we could not win the first race, but now the situation is better – because I am fit.
"We know we need time, but we work well together – and it is a dream to try and win the first race. But in reality, we are a bit too far off – but maybe the new bike is a miracle."
Rossi believes that one factor that will be better for him this year is his physical shape – because he is no longer troubled by the shoulder injury that affected his form during the first part of 2011.
When asked about how his feelings for this year compared to those he had prior to 2011, he said: "I have to say it is a bit different because last year I arrived in a worse physical condition, so my mood was a bit down.
"Today I am in shape physically, and we have two or three weeks ahead of us. I am ready for the first test. It is nice to work with Ducati, even if unfortunately the results have been under our expectations. The atmosphere is nice and we all believe in what we are doing."
Hayden too is bullish that the GP12, which he has not yet ridden, will produce the improved pace that Ducati is after.
"I am very optimistic," he said. "I think we have some different stuff to try in Malaysia, but it is not easy.
"Honda has really set the bar high, and hopefully we are closer there than we were in Valencia. But sitting up here – talk is cheap. I can say this and that about how we are going to be right there, but until we get there and roll out of the garage...
"I am confident we will be closer. We have some idea – but there is no need to make any predictions here in January. And even then it doesn't matter until we get to Qatar. I hope we will be much closer, and it will tell us more where the 1000s are against the 800s. But I believe in Ducati, I believe in this project, Filippo [Preziosi] and everyone involved."
Looking at the overall MotoGP situation going into 2012, Rossi thinks Honda may carry over some of its 2011 advantage – but he hopes the switch to 1000cc engines will level the playing field.
"I think that in 2011, Honda decided they wanted to win and they put on the table an amount of money that others did not have," he said. "It came out with a bike that was really incredible, so this technology will go on with 1000cc.
"But I hope Yamaha will be more competitive and I hope so for us, to have a more balanced championship. That is our desire."

Shadow Sight (Ivy Granger #1) by E.J. Stevens
Urban Fantasy/Paranormal
Rating: 3 Stars
Some things are best left unseen...
Ivy Granger's second sight is finally giving her life purpose. Ivy and her best friend Jinx may not be raking in the dough, but their psychic detective agency pays the bills--most of the time. Their only worry is the boredom of a slow day and the occasional crazy client--until a demon walks through their door.
Demons are never a good sign...
A demon attorney representing the water fae? Stranger things have happened. And things are about to get very, very strange as a bloodthirsty nightmare hunts the city of Harborsmouth.
There's blood in the water...
Kelpies have a reputation for eating humans. Unfortunately, Kelpies are the clients. When an Unseelie faerie this evil stalks the waterways of your city, you have to make hard choices.
The lesser of two evils...
My thoughts: Overall this was a fairly decent book. Did I love it? Not exactly. Did I hate it? Definitely not. The only real issue I had was with the writing itself. The story is great. I love the action and Ivy is a very interesting character. It would suck not being able to touch things or people because you could have a vision that makes people think you are crazy. At least she turned that crazy situation into a good decision. Helping people. That's a great way to use your gift.
The problem I had with this book was it was hard to get into without the action parts. So much time was spent on explaining the world Ivy lives in or every creature she passes or might possibly pass. It got super annoying. What happened to show, not tell?
Cover: 4/5
Writing: 3/5

One more thing before I go. I will be giving a ebook and swag for this in the near future so keep watch!

condensate line cleaning
I am finding some rust in my condensate pan so I'm going to start with cleaning the condensate lines. The primary condensate line is completely separate from the secondary line, but as you can see here there is a second "primary" condensate line tied to the secondary. (I'm not sure if I should be concerned about that or not.) What is the best way to clean these lines?
Here is a pic for illustration. The house is 13 years old.
Can you post a wider angle shot, or a couple of others that shows where that mish-mash of goober plumbing goes.
The secondary condensate pipe in the foreground extends approx 12 feet and daylights up high in the eave of the roof, also with a 90 degree elbow pointing down.
The real concern is why is there condensate in the secondary to begin with.Possibly a dirty primary drain pan or main drain, or even a dirty evaporator coil, or all 3 combined.Any way there are stromg chemicals made specifically for the cleaning of the coils and that same cleansing followed by a hot water rinse will normally clean the drains as well. Bleach and water is a good combination as well.
Right, I can safely assume no maintenance has been done and I am the new home owner, so I'm doing everything I can to make this last as long as possible. So far I have cleaned the debris out of the outside AC unit and cleaned the cooling fins. I had the freon checked. On to the attic...I already know the blower wheel is dirty, so that is on the list. The rust you describe worries me too, so I figured I would start by cleaning the condensate lines. I can see how the furnace and air handler come apart, however it's not clear how to get to the evaporator and primary pan. Perhaps I can post a pic later for some advice.
Should I start with attempting to shop vac the primary and secondary condensate lines or go straight to the evap/primary cleaning?
Great idea! yes ! using a shop vac, pull away from the coil, so in other words, attach the shop vac at the termination point out side.I suspect that the evaporator will be dirty, if the blower wheel is dirty.
You can barely see it in the pic above but it looks like the evaporator area is in a sealed sheetmetal box with the seams taped. How do you clean the evaporator on something like this? I suspect more pics will be needed.
Thanks so much for the advice!
The front cover should come off......
Here are a couple of pictures of the evaporator section.
From the top:
I see the bottom section is separate from the rest, presumably that's where the primary drain pan and the copper connections are made. Can I just cut the mastic at the corners and remove the upper panel to gain access to clean the evaporator coils?
Thank you so much for the help! The plan for this weekend is to clean the blower, the condenser and condensate lines and treat the rust on the secondary pan, so I will report back.
or just stick to the side with the Carrier emblem? <-----YES
How long has that Carrier N coil been attached to that Goodman furnace?
Basically I am looking for everything I can do to make this work as good as possible. The house is only a little over 1500 sqft., 1 story, and it seems to take longer than expected to heat and cool. Probably 25 minutes per degree to heat and 30-35 minutes per degree to cool. A local HVAC company came out and said my ducting is good, freon levels good, I had recently cleaned the outside condenser unit, that my blower was dirty (and they assumed the evaporator would be too), and they measured the volume of intake air at the cold air return and said it was something like 800 cfm when it should be closer to 1200 cfm and recommended I buy a new $10k system. So any suggestions you have to improve on what I have is encouraged. And feel free to bash what the builder has done, I would rather know.
Here are a few more pics of the system.
Ducting in foreground coming from the cold air return to the furnace/blower:
Evaporator/air handler:
Inside the furnace:
:(wow........Looks like hack n wack heating and air put it in.....i dont even know were to begin......were is your filter?:(
just a few things right off the bat.....flexable gas line:eek:.....looks like a heavy duty extension cord for the power comming in:eek:, single wall vent that is crooked as hell and a 45,000 btu furnace:mad:......wow
You need the next size up furnace, dont know what size air you have but i bet it struggles to keep up as well.....

[USL PRO PREVIEW: Quarterfinals] USL PRO's third season moves into the playoffs with regular-season champion Richmond Kickers, 2011 champion Orlando City, 2012 champion Charleston Battery and Harrisburg City Islanders opening at home on Saturday. For a look at the four quarterfinal matchups ...
USL PRO SCHEDULE, Quarterfinals:
Saturday, August 24
Richmond vs. Dayton, 7 p.m. ET
Orlando City vs. Pittsburgh, 7:30 p.m. ET
Charleston vs. Los Angeles, 7:30 p.m. ET
Harrisburg vs. Charlotte, 2 p.m. ET
The Kickers concluded the 2013 regular season atop the standings with a 15-1-10 record and 55 points, clinching the title with a 2-0 win against two-time defending regular-season champion Orlando City
last week.
Zimbabwean Joseph Ngwenya leads the Kickers with 10 goals and six assists in all matches, while Matthew
Delicate, the Kickers' all-time leading scorer, has posted five goals in his last four games. Goalkeeper Andrew Dykstra, on loan from D.C. United,
finished the season with a goals-against average of 0.86, the lowest in the league.
Dayton (10-9-7) ended the regular season on a high note with a convincing 3-1 win over Harrisburg that
clinched a playoff berth. Forward Gibson Bardsley had a goal and two assists to lead Dayton with nine goals and seven assists for the season.
ORLANDO CITY-PITTSBURGH. The four points Pittsburgh took -- including three in a 1-0 win at the Florida Citrus Bowl three weeks ago -- cost Orlando City a third straight
regular-season title.
The Riverhounds are led by forward Jose Angulo, who shared the Golden Boot title with Dom
Dwyer with 15 goals. Dwyer left Orlando City in mid-season to return to MLS's Sporting Kansas City.
Orlando was working to get midfielder Jamie
Watson and goalkeeper Jon Kempin back to full health.
"Depending on where they are, they may be available for Saturday's
game," said Orlando coach Adrian Heath. "The important thing is to not rush them back."
CHARLESTON-LOS ANGELES. The No. 3 seed Battery split the two games with the Blues in 2013, winning the first match, 3-0, at Blackbaud Stadium on July 27 behind goals from Nicki Paterson, Dane Kelly and Heviel Cordoves, and losing the return match, 2-1, away
two weeks ago. Kelly scored the lone Battery goal and Matt Fondy had both Blues goals at UC Irvine.
Kelly led the Battery during the regular season
with 11 goals and two assists in 24 games. Nicki Paterson and Heviel Cordoves both recorded seven goals for the season
with midfielder Mike Azira scoring five.
Fondy led the Blues with 10 goals, while playmaker Rodrigo Lopez
had 11 assists.
HARRISBURG-CHARLOTTE. The City Islanders, the 2011 runners-up, will start the postseason against the Charlotte Eagles in a rubber
match at Skyline Sports Complex. Each team won on its opponent's home turf in 2013.
Lucky Mkosana had 10 goals in his last eight games to
finish with 13 goals for Harrisburg, while Sainey Touray, who scored 10 goals, will need to find his mid-season form for the Islanders to make waves in the
Charlotte's top two scorers both scored goals in the Eagles' visit to City Island. Jorge Herrera and Christian Ramirez have the most goals by far with 10 and eight, respectively. Eric Reed, the Eagles goalkeeper, has been solid all year, posting a
total of eight shutouts.

I know before anyone points out, Shakespeare did say something very very similar in The Merchant of Venice "all that glisters is not gold" which in modern plays is rendered as "all that glitters is not gold". I also know that Tolkien's direct quote is "all that is gold does not glitter". So the text on the shirt is not a direct quote of either.
I guess I am frustrated because I really want to like this shirt but am hung up on a technicality and can not force myself to.
I know, I feel the same way. When I saw the name of the shirt, and the thumbnail of the quote, I felt a little knee-jerk of nerd-rage. But it's a golden joke, all in all. LOL

Hm, thanks for the input! Maybe I'll submit one without the swing, then. Although people seem to like the cranberry color a bit better...?
celticdragon wrote:I like it, but I'd like it rather better without the paintbrush.
I know what you mean. That way it would seem more like molten gold, and not just a really shiny paint/an excellent, shiny (though still wet), painting of a phoenix.

Not the scenario that I had in mind while creating this. Somebody came along and whacked his foot off, so Dirty Harey is out for revenge is how it played in my head. Sorry that it bugs you.
You haven't wasted the opportunity to make the gold ink a feature of your design. Great framing and colours.
Re: Golden Life
Take a look at this one guys, it's pretty cool!
Re: From Gilded Ashes
I like it as well but have to agree with others the paintbrush takes away from the image would like to see it without the brush if possible. The phoenix is gorgeous. I am looking at the image for a possible new tattoo.

I'm so glad someone else appreciates the best ensemble alive, well, you know what I mean....best show ever. I'd even get my toddler son one of these since the theme song he understands to be a " lullabye" ...hey, do what you know.
I think you have a winner here mate.

I want this. I want this. I want this. Ah! Me liking cranberry shirts...What's happening!? D:
Love this! Very clever and well executed, also great choice of colors. In for one if it prints.

Re: Dragon's Hoard
I like my design quite a bit really, but I don't understand how to use halftones properly, I guess. So I don't know if it will get rejected because of that or the fact that it's super freaking pixelated for some reason. I can't get anything to go right, here. Next time, I guess.
Very cool!
I would recommend visiting the image at Tumblr for a correct, non-squished version of the mock up.

A design that uses that shiny metallic ink everyone is raving about. Don't know why... tastes terrible D:

Individual Genius--We Should Never Forgot How Important It Is.By
In era of process, where we do nearly all our innovation and design in teams, it is important to remember that genius can still play a critical role in creativity. Take a look at this amazing video of kinetic sculpture.
There are more videos by this creative genius at his site, glumbert.com.
I'd like to open a conversation on the role of individual genius in innovation and design today. Our language and our behavior is all "process" driven but are we missing something very important? And if genius remains critical, how can it be integrated into our current business culture?
Does the individual creative genius require the individual brilliant individual business partner to make the magic happen? Is it always a Steve Jobs—Jonathon Ive kind of thing or can it be something else?
I dunno but want to find out. What do you think?

Immediately after exiting the Bayon temple, we moved to the Baphuon temple. It is only few hundreds of meters (350+) away from Bayon, which includes the 150-meter walkway from the main road. The surroundings of the temple is a swamp, which gets deeper on wet season – so, its builders created an elevated pathway.
The Baphuon temple is also located within the Angkor Thom complex like the Bayon. It is a three-tiered pyramidal or mountain-like temple that was built in the mid-11th century. This 150-meter by 100-meter monument has a height of roughly 50 meters, including its tower.
Each side of the structure has gopura (arched gate) and below it are stairs which are used as access to the top tiers or levels. Makeshift stairs were installed because the original ones were no longer safe for the tourists.
Though the steps were too steep, we climbed really fast due to the excitement of seeing the scenes from above – and we weren't disappointed.
The view from the top is breathtaking. You can see the enormity of the complex's territory and picturesque view of the entire terrain.
The second and the third tier of the temple looked like a pyramid mounted on the top of a vast edifice (first tier).
Installed on the top-most tier is a tower. The tower has four door-like columns facing the four directions; north, south, east, and west. Unfortunately, tourists are not allowed to access it.
We took the east gopura when we entered Baphuon and exited on the west side. When we looked back, we noticed that the side of the temple resembles a giant reclining Buddha. It measures 9 meters tall by 70 meters long and covers the second level.
We did end our Angkor Thom tour in Baphuon. We proceeded to the nearby Phimeanakas after that.

I have a couple of comments/questions. I am not from a CoC background. Is there a book in the Bible you abbreviate Jho? I saw this reference in the ad several times. I'm confused.I do attend a Mennonite church, which has a worship team, with keyboard, guitar, drums, and bass. There are very few Mennonite Churches that don't use musical instruments nowadays. Those which don't, don't believe those who do are lost and going to hell. The decision to use or not use musical instruments is based more on tradition/preference. As an outsider looking in, this whole issue appears rather sick to me.
This is getting much play on the Stone-Campbell list. I wonder what your thoughts are. Mine are totally negative; nowhere in the NT is there command/inference/example of one congregation "marking" one of another congregation. Dan Wednesday morning's Daily Oklahoman contained this full-page ad on the back page: http://shopping.newsok.com/ROP/ads.aspx?advid=757858&adid=5741029&cat=5157 Here is a follow-up: http://newsok.com/article/3201750

Newly renovated from top to bottom! Perfect for those who like the convenience of walking out of the back door to head to the beach!
Rosie's Retreat is a charming, cozy beach home with interesting accents and accessories that you don't often find in rental units. The attention to detail makes this home a special place to stay!
This home has been a duplex with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath on each level. We decided to add steps to the inside and 2 more bathrooms, making it a 4 bedroom, 4 bath!
We just installed new siding, and Andersen windows and doors. We are excited about the new look and think that you will love the coastal charm!
PLEASE NOTE: Weekly rental ONLY in the summer.
Excellent beach and precious house!! We had a wonderful time and hope to rent Rosie's Cottage again!!
This was my first visit to this beach house! It was so inviting from the front door to the back! What a wonderful way to start the new year! This home is just that, a home! The atmosphere that the owner presents is that of a "Welcome to Our Home"! I was lucky enough to have to downstairs bedroom, due to back problems, the bed was so comfortable and very luxurious! The location to the beach was perfect! Everyone was comfortable and such a family friendly amenties were found all over! I hope to be invited back again!
We Look forward to staying at your place at least twice a year it's top drawer every time and all we do is enjoy and relax on the ocean. We can't wait to be there again.
Jerry Evans
Macon GA
This beach house oozes comfort and the bright, playful decor is a reflection of the owners' obvious love for the beach. My teenage sons and I enjoyed a week of total relaxation and time with old friends I hadn't seen in years.
The boys loved using the boogie boards and the ocean was as soothing as a bath! The wide stretch of white sand was simply magnificent. I'd get up with the sunrise for long walks down the soft seashore and marvel at the beauty along this stretch of Fernandina.
The home has central air conditioning and a full bath for every bedroom. Every imaginable need is catered to here.
This delightfully decorated retreat is only minutes from the darling Fernandina town with it's eclectic and quaint shopping and fresh seafood restaurants.
It was a quiet oasis and we loved every minute of our stay.
I love this beach cottage! This is my second time going on a girl's trip. We all have our own bedroom and bath which is great. The open kitchen/den looking out to the beach is perfect for relaxing with friends. The beach/casual decor is comfortable and inviting. Plenty of Beach chairs and towels are provided for guests to enjoy the beautiful Atlantic that is only steps away. I hope to go back next year for more fun in the sun!
Ellie F.
This property is ideal for a family or a couple's beach trip! It is charming, bright, very clean and comfortable. The views of the ocean are gorgeous and the back decks are perfect for enjoying them. The owner has done a spectacular job decorating the home with vintage pieces and everything you would want for a relaxing beach trip! I will go back every year!
Plenty of activities to keep you busy.....although most guests prefer to relax with a good book on the beach! Take a tour of Fort Clinch, a horse and carriage tour through downtown Fernandina, a Segway tour through one of the nearby state-parks, or ride horses on the beach. Stroll the cobblestone streets of downtown Fernandina and browse the many gift shops, antique stores and art galleries. Make sure to take an afternoon visit to the Fantastic Fudge Shop for ice-cream or homemade fudge!

Spirits in Aviation — a fast study in aviation libation
Aviation Gin — what better than a gin that is named after aviation?
The Aviation cocktail circa 1916
- 2 oz gin
- ½ oz Maraska Maraschino Liqueur
- ½ oz fresh squeezed lemon juice
- ¼ oz Crème de Violette (or half that amount as it is sweet)
- shake with ice and strain, add a cherry for garnish
The Aviation cocktail circa 1930
- 2 oz gin
- ½ oz Maraska Maraschino Liqueur
- ½ oz fresh squeezed lemon juice
- shake with ice and strain, add a cherry for garnish
China Clipper Cocktail
Note: this cocktail was invented to reflect the international territory and routes that Pan American Airways were serving with their Flying Clippers made by Martin, Sikorsky and Boeing in the 1930s and 1940s.
- 1½ oz yellow gin (Citadelle Reserve but can substitute Seagram's Extra Dry)
- ½ oz dry Vermouth
- 1 dash grapefruit juice
- 2 dashes orange bitters
- shake with ice and strain, add Chinese golden lime (i.e., calamondin, which is orange or yellow when ripe) for garnish or one can substitute kumquat or lime, preferably a Key lime.
Note: yellow gin is clear gin that has been aged, but for a short time, in oak barrels
Irish Coffee
This drink was concocted in the Foynes terminal one night in the Winter of 1943 to keep Pan Am Flying Boat passengers warm. The complete story is here and the Foynes Flying Boat Museum with their Boeing 314 Flying Clipper replica should be seen, and an Irish Coffee enjoyed in their Brendan O'Regan Restaurant.
- 4 oz black coffee
- 2 oz whiskey
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
Heat and mix the above taking care to not let the solution come to a boil
Then gently pour thick cream over the back of a spoon which hovers just above the drink to make a thin floating layer — mixing is to be stridently avoided!
The drink is sipped through the cream much like a machiatto
To see a beautiful set of instructions go to this page at the Foynes Flying Boat Museum
In a pinch — since there may be difficulty for most of us in obtaining either yellow gin or Crème de Violette, or in the event one wishes to not have sweet flavor in their cocktail — why not use Magellan Gin? It has a delicate pale sky blue hue (Crème de Violette is used in part for the violet tint which it imparts) which develops from the iris plant used in the making of the gin.
- Pacific Blue Martini — 2 oz Magellan Gin, a splash of dry Vermouth and lemon peel for garnish
- Gin & Tonic (G and T, or G 'n T) — using Magellan Gin and mixing to taste with the use a slice of lime if you like

I hemmoraged more than I should with both of my births and also found it demoralizing, especially when I didn't feel as good as I thought I should afterwards. My bleeding was just a drop in the bucket so to speak compared to your experience.
|I'd be kind to yourself and I also think that most people would have some PTSD after your experience. If it was me I think I'd look for a mental health professional that was very knowledgable about PTSD.
I did hemorrhage last year and ended up in the hospital. I had to have 4 units of blood. I had no idea that "heavy" perimenopausal bleeding could land me in the hospital or could have been a threat to my health. My doctor was shaken...and he is a really easy going doctor.
|Anyway, my point is most people DON'T get it...it was dangerous and yes, life-threatening.
Sometimes our bodies don't work the way they should and I am thankful that I was able to get the medical care I needed ( and glad you were able to get the medical care you needed!)
|postpartum depression might be a good idea. I suppose just be watchful...
I wanted to share my story about what should have been my death also. When I was 17, I was a gymnast in high school. I had 11 years of gymnastics experience. During a dismount from the bars, I landed on my head and broke the C-1 and C-6 vertebrae in my neck. The C-1 vertebra surrounds the medulla oblongata (brain stem), which controls autonomic functions like respiration, circulation, and secretion. Fracture of this vertebra and trauma to the brain stem usually results in the body being unable to regulate the basic functions that keep a person alive. After the impact with the floor, I jumped up, saluted the judge, and walked off the mat. I felt like my head was loose from my body, but I did not have anyone to take me to the hospital for several hours. I was alive and functioning, and everyone thought I must be ok. When I got to the county hospital, they finally took some x-rays, saw the fractures, and things immediately changed. The doctor came in panicking and taped my head and body to a board, and I was whisked away to the large hospital in the city an hour away. I spent three days in the ICU, with doctors checking to see if my reflexes were working, my bowels were working, etc. People constantly told me I was so very lucky to be alive, that they had never seen a patient survive this injury. Even today if a doctor learns of this history, he/she will look at me in wonder or horror and repeat that I am very lucky I didn't die.
|I had thoughts like, "Why should I be allowed to live? What makes me more special than the people who died from this injury?" There are just no good answers to those kinds of questions. I even had thoughts that maybe I did die, and everything I experienced after the accident was just all in my head.
|I now celebrate two birthdays every year, the one where my mother birthed me, and the one where I got a rare chance to live where usually people die.
Feel free to PM me if you would like to talk or just need someone to listen.
I have had these EXACT same thoughts. Interesting. Even though I made a conscious choice to live (it's in my birth story), I still can't wrap my head around it. And I have also thought maybe I really did die. I don't like that one. It freaks me out a bit.

Posted by James McQuivey on October 27, 2009
Today Roku launched two new players to complement the original $99 Roku player. Perhaps somewhat obviously, the two new players come in at $79 and $129, allowing Roku to test whether there's price elasticity in this market.
I'm not sure this was a necessary move. The cheaper box (called Roku SD), simply removes HD playback from the original Roku Player (now called Roku HD). The $129 version offers wireless-n wi-fi streaming to deliver dramatically better video quality. I don't personally need that since I hook up my Roku player -- which is in constant demand in my home -- via ethernet. (Yes, being a nerd has its advantages including a fully self-wired home that has over 24 ethernet ports in it.) So while I can see the value of the more expensive box for wi-fi users who have wireless-n routers (do you know if you do? betcha don't know), I think muddying the waters with 3 boxes instead of a maximum of 2 just feels like unnecessary complexity. A bit like Amazon announcing it would sell two versions of the Kindle in the US, one that's domestic only and one that can roam abroad, a decision doesn't appear likely to last very long.

We've been flogging the media industries for years at Forrester. So much so that we sometimes assume that people remember all the ways we've warned, cajoled, and exhorted for more than a decade. But based on the things we're seeing the pundits finally say, it's clear that "the end is near" is a pressingly recent recognition on the part of many. For examples, see Malcolm Gladwell's review of Chris Anderson's book Free; Mark Bowden's lament over the loss of journalism ethics in The Atlantic; or programmer/essayist Paul Graham's thoughtful reflection on Post-medium Publishing.
Don't get me wrong: we welcome these and more voices to a conversation we've been trying to start for some years now. (If you think I'm just posturing, I direct your attention to former Forrester VP Mary Modahl's July 1994 piece entitled Publications Get Wired where she first blew up the "print isn't going away" myth.) But there are some very fundamental things that are getting lost in most of the discussions we are hearing. Namely, people are stuck on processes, historical reinterpretation, future prognostications, and personal feelings at the passing of an era.
In the end, however, none of that will matter as the fundamental economics of digital media assert themselves. Basically, it's now cheaper to make, distribute, and consume media. That changes everything.

Women in F1: The Stirling Moss Debate
83-year-old Formula 1 legend Stirling Moss has once again spoken with conviction and said what he really believes to a world that has no convictions and doesn't know what to believe. And the reaction has been as predictable as sunrise.
When asked last week if he believed that a woman could win in Formula 1, Moss riled slaves of political correctness by responding, "We've got some very strong and robust ladies, but when your life is at risk, I think the strain of that in a competitive situation will tell when you're trying to win... the mental stress, I think, would be pretty difficult for a lady to deal with in a practical fashion. I just don't think they have the aptitude to win a Formula One race."
Race fans have heaped scorn upon Moss, calling him an "idiot" and an "outdated relic." His comments were slurred as "archaic," and "sexist rubbish" that "has no place in today's society."
The volume and tenacity of sheer hate directed at Stirling Moss was beyond description.
I find that rather odd since Moss did not volunteer the comment. On the contrary, he was merely responding to a reporter's specific query. And the readers who now criticize his opinions obviously wanted to read them or they would never have followed the link to the story at all.
So the resolution seems simple to me. If you don't want the man's opinion, don't ask.
But let's look at a broader picture. Once again, we see a tragic example of "selective tolerance" in action. Those who hold Moss' opinion – rightly or wrongly – are shouted down, insulted and barred from public debate, while those who do not are accepted as mainstream.
Personally, I don't give a flying rat's rump if a man or a woman, or chimpanzee or a freaking Martian ever wins a race or not. When the fields were 100% men, I still loved racing. If the fields were 100% women, I would still be at the track every weekend. I just plain don't care. My allegiance is to the sport, not my gender.
But truth be told, the Moss debate was never really about gender. It is not about auto racing at all. It is about The Agenda.
Anyone who questions The Agenda is branded an enemy of society. They must be re-educated by the system to accept The Agenda or face banishment from their field.
We are no longer encouraged to be individuals with our own opinions. Instead, everyone is expected to identify with a group, and those groups are expected to be in a state of constant war for supremacy disguised as equality.
As a result, female drivers have never received rightful credit for their achievements because The Agenda comes first. Is Danica Patrick ever noted as "the winner of the Japan 300?" No. Instead, she is universally known as the "first woman" to do this or that.
No one ever says that she drove a great race.
It's really quite insulting. Women are never actually credited with excellence as race drivers. They can only be part of their collective, and their success is seen only as a springboard by which groups of selective self-interest can further The Agenda.
Perhaps we should learn to value individuals again. Remember, no matter what color or gender you might be, you are a minority. After all, there's only one of you.
So I am delighted to hear Moss share his views. At least he has the courage to stand up and speak his mind. Unlike today's highly polished, politically correct corporate clones posing as racecar drivers, Moss fears no media. The petty insults directed at him by alleged "fans" affect him not in the least. Right or wrong, at least he acts like a man.
And one day, when a woman does win in F1, let's hope she won't be noted as "the first woman wearing a red helmet and pink fingernail polish to win on a cloudy Sunday after 4 o'clock thereby empowering underprivileged females in Santiago and Topeka."
I hope people will simply say that she's a truly outstanding racecar driver.
My guess is that Stirling Moss will be the first to shake her hand and admit that he is delighted to have been so wrong.

As a young man, Johnson was a sailor and one of only twelve survivors aboard a ship that caught fire and sank off the coast of South Africa. He returned to his native Boston, Massachusetts, and studied art with marine painter William E. Norton. Johnson went on to become very well known for his nautical and marine paintings in the later part of the 19th century.

388 stroker build
This is going to go in my sons jeep for fun in the mud, ok here is what I have done 350 block bored .60 over and clearance for 375 crank, 5.7 rods, KB flat top piston 2 valve reliefs, aluminum heads 200cc intake runners and 64cc chambers,Crosswind Dual plane street and strip 1500-6500RPM intake, 600 cfm Edelbrock, Double row timing chain set, hydraulic flat tappet lifters, aluminum roller tip rocker 1.6 ratio, cam .465 intake/.488 exhaust Duration 224/234 112deg with 1.5 rockers but as i said i used 1.6 ratio.
Well I think that's about it, So with what I have listed what might I expect to see for HP out of this and any thoughts on what I should Have done are always welcome. Thank you.

Your asking a loaded question , I can tell one thing the next guy will blast me and you and say something different . I have built and ran 383's for about 10 years . I like the 5.7 rod myself . I think for what you are doing with it everything looks good . It's hard to give you a H.P. # . Because of to many unknowns related to tuning . One horsepower per cubic inch is in reach for you .
I think your compression will be too high, for a 5.7" rod... at the RPM that compression will make its peak at the 6" rod will give you an advantage.
Unless you're running E85 cam is too small for the compression too.
a 6" rod will make more power in most cases but on the street you can have oil issues depending on the pistons/rings you use. a 6" rod will also lower the rotating weight, good for longevity.

For the most part This will not see a lot of street use maybe to and from trails 15 to 20 miles at most. Thanks for the reply we where hoping to get around 350 hp you say depending on the tune what all are you referring so i can research and learn this is are first build so i need to learn all this stuff.
Also for Exhaust what would you guys recommend we have a set of outside frame rail long tube headers with 1 3/4 inch tubes.
What fuel do you plan on running? Do you have an idea of what compression you're at?
this is what is on the kb piston specs Flat Top (2 Valve Reliefs 10.3:1 w/64cc
but i am not for sure, was hoping to run cheapest pump gas lol don't know if I will be able to. this is all going to be a learning process for use so please tell me what you all think. if I recall the machinist figured more like 9.5:1
The KB piston isn't really a typical 2VR piston, they have a huge groove running through it, which is good- nonetheless I would plan on 91 or better octane.
i'm about possitive that your compression is not 9.5:1 you would need atleast a 18cc dish to get that from a 64cc head, depending on how much your motor has been deck (or if at all) you are sitting closer to above 10.5:1 (with a .040" quench) you mentioned that they are 2 valve relief pistons and not 4 so i would guess the -cc's aren't more than 5-7. and with a -7cc piston volume a .040" quench, 4.100" gasket and 64cc head i'm comming up with 11:1, you will certainly need to lower this if you want to run that cam and also run pump gas at all. i also see that you have listed 200cc heads and since you mentionedthis will be a mud truck you want more tq and shouldn't be as worried about hp, i think you would be far better off with a 180cc runner head and look into a 72cc combustion chamber this will help lower the compression to around 10:1 a little more acceptable range
i'm looking on KB's site to try and find what pistons you bought, are they hypereutectic pistons or fordged. under the hyper listings i found KB100's, KB134's, and KB253's all are -7cc valve relief pistons and all mention 11.1:1 compression with a 64cc head. if you already have all these parts you will certainly need to look into a 72cc head and try to set you quench at .050 or look for a set of world SS 76cc heads
KB's pistons aren't your typical 2VR's. They have an "attenuator groove" cut through the valve reliefs that adds a considerable amount to the recessed volume. He probably is under 10:1.
I've used these pistons before, kinda funky looking but they work.

TW- There are always 383 builds going on, and actually right now, there's a THREAD on just such a build.
It, along w/numerous others are available for reading by UTSE, both here and google, other forums, etc.
One good thing about the 383 SBC stroker is there is a LOT of good first hand info available for them.
Good luck w/yours!
I am not looking to build one I already have it built was just wondering where I might need to improve on it later or if i really goofed lol we have not got the new axles under it yet but have run it through a break in 2500 rpm 20 minutes then let fully cool down. thanks for the advice.
795.5 cc's in the cylinder (.7854 x 4.06 x 4.06 x 3.75 x 16.387)
64 cc's in the combustion chamber
3.6 cc's in the deck (.7854 x 4.06 x 4.06 x 0.017 x 16.387)
5 cc's in the piston crown
8.76 cc's in the gasket (typical 0.040" gasket required for use with aluminum cylinder head). This will put the squish at 0.057". If you're using an iron head, you can use a Victor Reinz 0.025" gasket and finalize the squish at 0.042", but the static compression ratio increases.
Anyway, all volumes added together (876.75) and divided by the compressed volume (81.25) yields a 10.79:1 static compression ratio. The thinner VR gasket will yield 11.19:1 SCR, but would improve the squish. Now, you may want to check my work, but my advice would be to fire your machinist and find one who can properly cipher the SCR for you before you buy all the wrong stuff. You're gonna need either larger chambers or larger piston crowns or both.
And don't even think about spec'ing a cam until you get the SCR nailed down. Oh, and another thing. In the first place, I would not use a flat tappet cam, but if I did, I sure as hell wouldn't use 1.6 rockers on it.
EDIT: I see you've already built it and run it. Good luck.

my87z, techinspector1, and ap,72 you see what you're up against- too much CR, at least for that camshaft.
Even though you've already built this engine, the same research into threads, etc. applies though, for getting it put right to run w/o detonation.
Good luck in any event.

Mr. REID. Mr. President, is immigration a problem? Of course, it is. But is immigration a problem that is limited to Texas, Arizona, California, the border States? No. Is immigration a problem only for big cities, such as San Antonio, New York, Chicago, L.A.? No. Immigration is a problem all over America.
As people know, I am from Searchlight, NV, a little town I was born in and the town where I lived. It is 60 miles southeast of Las Vegas in the southern tip of the State. Is immigration something people talk about in Searchlight? Of course, it is.
Take yesterday. I got back to my office, and there was a call from Tommy. I am not going to give his last name for fear somebody will look him up. Tommy called me--and I do have his last name--and he said: I have a friend here who is from Mexico, has been here quite a long time. What is this immigration bill you are working on going to do for him? Should I be in favor of it? Yes, Tommy, you should be because your friend will no longer have to be afraid of being arrested and deported. This bill will allow him to come out of the shadows.
The same day, yesterday, I received my mail from Searchlight. Somebody sends me my mail that comes addressed to me in Searchlight. A letter was addressed to me and said, among other things: You probably should go under the witness protection program because of your work on this immigration issue.
That is from Searchlight, NV. This doesn't take into consideration the letters and the calls my offices in Reno, Las Vegas, and here in Washington get filled with hate. I have, of course, turned the letter that I got from Searchlight over to the Capitol Police.
This situation is a problem not just in the border States and big cities, it is a problem all over America.
We are said to be the greatest deliberative body in the world. Shouldn't we do something positive regarding an issue that affects everybody in America, immigration? Some say it is the country's biggest problem. While that may be debatable, it is a significant problem, one of the top two or three problems facing us, and the problem is not going to go away. Is it right to wait until there is a new President? Should we wait until we get a new Congress? Of course not. Talk radio has had a field day, these generators of simplicity.
I want everyone to know, and I want the record spread, I do not believe anyone who is a Senator who votes against this motion to proceed is filled with prejudice, with hatred, with venom, as we get in our phone calls and our mail. I don't believe that. But I do believe we have an issue before us that we must resolve.
My family has been enriched by immigration. My father-in-law, Earl Gould, came to America from Russia when he was a little boy. When he came here his name was Israel Goldfarb. He assumed the name Earl Gould. When I met my wife, her name was Landra Gould.
I had the opportunity to talk with my father-in-law many times. Every one of his siblings who came to America had a different name. They all changed their name in this great melting pot.
My father-in-law died as a young man--he was 52 years old--from leukemia. I think of him often. My wife is an only child. I think of him often for the kindness that he showed me. This ring I wear he gave to me on his death bed. This watch that I wear he gave to me. When he was sick and knew he was going to die, he and my mother-in-law took a trip to the Middle East and brought me back this watch. They didn't have money to buy watches for me, but they bought a watch for me. I still wear the watch.
In this great melting pot we have called America, of which I am a part, my five children are eligible for Israeli citizenship because, with the Jewish [Page: S8650] tradition, lineage is with the mother, not the father. My children proudly know this.
My family has been enriched as a result of immigration. I knew my grandmother. I talked with her lots of times. As a boy, I listened to her stories. I talked with her. I can still hear her voice--oh, we had a grand time. That is how she talked. She was born in Katherine's Cross, England, and came over here as a girl, married my grandfather, had eight children, all of them raised in Searchlight, NV.
Those are two examples of what immigration is all about, two examples of what it has done to Harry Reid.
My skin is real white. We have African Americans. The Presiding Officer is of African-American ancestry. In the back of the room--we don't even have to look at the back of the room--we have Hispanics. But my skin is American skin, just as the Presiding Officer, just as Senator Salazar.
What is immigration all about? A number of years ago, one of America's great journalists, James Fallows, wrote a book called ``More Like Us.'' The thesis in this book was that everyone was saying we should be more like Japan.
Japan was at the zenith of its height and power, and we were in the doldrums economically. Everyone said we should be more like Japan.
James Fallows wrote this book, ``More Like Us,'' and he said: No, we should be more like us, like America, and the No. 1 issue he talked about being different from Japan, our strength, is immigration. I testify that is true; that is the strength of this great country.
Today in America we have a problem with immigration. We have porous borders that need to be fixed. We are Senators, I repeat, Members of the greatest deliberative body in the history of the world. With the honor of our office comes enormous responsibility. We must resist the ever-present temptation to do what is expedient at the expense of what is right. When short-term gain diverges from long-term good, we must choose the good. This is our challenge today.
I ask every one of my colleagues, Democrats and Republicans, not to shrink from this issue, to support us moving forward on this legislation for the good of our country, the greatness of our country.
There are 100 of us. If each one of us were given a few days to draft an immigration bill. We probably could do a better job than what has been done with this bill, in our own minds. But some of the greatest legislative minds in this body have worked long and hard to come up with this bill. Perfect? No. Good? Yes.
I hope we can do the right thing and move this legislation forward. I am not here to tell my colleagues this legislation is the greatest thing that ever came along, but it is something that is badly needed, and we need to continue this process.
Mr. President, there is $4.4 billion for border security. Is it going to help? Oh, it will help a lot. There are 370 miles of fencing, which we authorized and, of course, have done nothing about; 300 miles of vehicle barriers; 20,000 new Border Patrol agents; more than 100 ground-based radar and camera towers; and 31,500 detention beds.

Pet of the Week: Mason is a tomato hound
Mason, a Bull Mastiff, is happily at home with Mark Haller and his fiancé Martha Fletcher both of whom are residents of West Seattle for the past three months.
"Mason was a rescue dog," said Haller. "We were looking for a dog for the both of us and we ran across him on Petfinders.com. He was actually rescued from a Bull Mastiff rescue organization out in Roy. He and I connected right away so I went back and showed Martha a video of him. We put our heads together and decided we were going to do it so I came down and picked him up and he's been with us ever since." That was a year ago.
They estimate he's about three years old but that's not certain since there are no records for him.
Mason weighs 147 lbs, "after the holidays" said Haller chuckling. "He's been on a diet but yes the vet was not happy about his weight," said Fletcher.
Mason loves attention and actually gets pretty vocal about it. "He cries when Mark won't pet him," said Fletcher. "He'll get scratched and if I stop he will look back at me and 'woof' and he'll demand that I scratch him again, almost a commanding, 'why did you stop?' "
His normal demeanor is very calm. He sleeps a lot during the day and he's very protective at night. If he hears any knocks on the doors he will bark. Going on walks he is very drawn toward children. If he hears a child crying he will start running toward the child. He never picks a fight with another dog. Dogs will bark at him and he just stops and looks at them. Little dogs, though, they make him nervous. I think it's the shrill bark," explained Haller.
"He will lean up next to you and wants to be next to you all the time. He's almost more of an indoor dog. You'd think for a large dog he'd be an outside dog but he's very much an inside dog."
Mason is however a little sneaky. "This summer I grew tomatoes," Haller said, and he normally would just sniff the tomatoes and think nothing of them. Then one day he saw me pick a cherry tomato and eat it. From then on we had to watch him because he would go off and pick the cherry tomatoes off and eat them. But only if I picked them and ate them. I had to write home, 'This dog is so amazing and he learns so fast.'
"He was sneaky though," said Fletcher, "He waited until we were not looking and then we were saying, 'Where are all the tomatoes going?' and he wiped out the plant. We got a picture of him doing it."
Mason normally gets fed Nutra Source, Chicken and Rice and some nutritious food logs and some fish oil for his coat.
For treats he gets carrots but that's not all. "He likes cantaloupe, bananas and he also enjoys peanut butter and every once in a while he gets a nice huge bone," said Haller.
The couple has taught him a few things but he apparently had some rudimentary training to sit, stay and he's very good at not running off anywhere.
Mason's toys don't last long unfortunately. He's pretty aggressive with them. "The ones they claim are indestructible, I'd like to challenge that claim," said Haller, "He's destroyed about every one. We're close to one lasting about a month. He will get a hold of one and we end up with stuffing all over the floor."
Since they are new to the area, Mason hasn't had time to form any good friends as yet but he does have his eye on a neighbor dog. "It's a girl dog next door he met once and after that there was a lot of crying and it's so cute," said Fletcher. "She's a German Shepherd and I don't know what her name is," said Haller. "They got to play but he's very intimidated by her," said Fletcher," She knocked him over one time."
Mason does have issues likely stemming from his rescue experience. "I tried to take him to a doggy day care," explained Fletcher," but he saw the cages and he thought he was going back to a shelter so he just put the brakes on. He just sat there and wouldn't move. I finally realized that was the reason. After that he was really clingy to me. So we can't take him anywhere that has cages because he thinks he's going back."
Haller described Mason as a, "very engaging, disarming dog. When you see him you immediately want to go to him and pet him. For as large a dog as he is, I don't think there has been anyone who has felt threatened by him. You just want to come up and give him a hug." Fletcher said, "He's very sweet, he's quite the character and there's nothing subtle about him."

His numbers weren't as fancy, but Kansas State defensive end Ian Campbell continues to earn the respect from the Big 12 Conference coaches.
Campbell was the lone Wildcat to be voted to either the first- or second-team all-Big 12 unit. A native of Cimarron, Kan., Campbell recorded 47 total tackles during his senior season in 2008, including 8.0 for losses, with 4.5 sacks and a school-record three blocked field goals.
Campbell recorded his best games of the 2008 season against Louisiana and Iowa State, carding 11 tackles, 1.5 sacks and a pass break up against the Ragin' Cajuns, while closing out his career with 10 stops and a blocked field goal against the Cyclones.
Campbell ranks sixth in school history with 20.5 career sacks and compiled 37.5 tackles for loss in his career.
The other top honoree was Brandon Banks, who was voted as the Offensive Newcomer of the Year. Banks became the second straight Wildcat to earn offensive newcomer of the year accolades after Deon Murphy took the honor in 2007.
In all, Kansas State has now had eight players earn conference newcomer of the year honors since 1996.
The 5-foot-7, 142-pound Banks caught 67 passes for 1,049 yards and nine touchdowns. He is the sixth player in school history to reach 1,000 receiving yards.
Banks also contributed on special teams in 2008 as he collected 498 yards on 18 kickoff returns and five punt returns for 58 yards. His 98-yard kickoff return against Nebraska tied for the fifth-longest in school history.
Banks' 1,731 total all-purpose yardage in 2008 ranks fifth in single-season school history, while his 144.2 all-purpose yards per game mark checks in at No. 8 on the K-State single-season records chart.
Honorable mention all-Big 12 honors went to Banks (WR, PR, KR), Jordan Bedore (OL), Brandon Harold (DL), Eric Childs (DL), Joshua Moore (DB), Brooks Rossman (PK) and Nick Stringer (OL).

New Survey Proves 35% of Americans Have Online Regrets [Headlines]
A new survey shows Americans regret posting drunkenly online.
According to a new study from Retrevo, 35% of Americans have posted something online that they later regretted. This particular study, inspired by the misdoings of Rep. Anthony Weiner, is part of an ongoing survey from the consumer electronics shopping and review site Retrevo.com. It was administered in June 2011 to a group of 1,000 people from all age and income brackets across the U.S. Not surprisingly, the study found that smartphone users are more than twice as likely to mispost.

The Project
Cuttlefish is a network workbench application that visualizes the networks with some of the best known layout algorithms. It allows detailed visualizations of the network data, interactive manipulation of the layout, graph edition and process visualization as well as different input methods and outputs in tex using Tikz and PSTricks. It is developed by the Chair of Systems Design of ETH Zürich , a research group that applies a complex system approach to investigate economic and social networks.
Start using Cuttlefish
Right now cuttlefish is only compatible to UNIX systems with the Java Runtime Environment 1.6 installed. You can download the latest version of Cuttlefish from our sourceforge project site and the configuration and datasource XML files. Then cd to your downloads directory and run:
java -jar cuttlefish.jar
To get the maximum out of Cuttlefish, visit our Manuals and Tutorials and for problems, questions or requests, get support.
Cuttlefish File Formats
To represent network data and visualisation details, Cuttlefish uses two new file formats. The first, Cuttlefish eXtended Format (cxf) defines network data like vertices, edges, weights and visualization information like labels, colors and shapes. The second file format is Cuttlefish Evolution Format (cef) that defines the changes happening in a network, which can be used to visualize network processes and algorithms. Cuttlefish is compatible with older file formats like Pajek and GraphML too.
Cuttlefish main window and ARF layout
More layouts supported by Cuttlefish
Cuttlefish interactive mouse

Your company logo.
But it sits alllll alone in a folder on your computer :-(
Maybe if you wish upon a star, it'll become a REAL-LIFE logo you can hang on your wall!!
BUUTTT wishing probably won't work, so just use CanvasPop instead.
Take any logo you want, upload it to CanvasPop.....and, within days, you'll have a real-life canvas picture to hang on the wall.
In fact, this Fat Sumo got a couple of canvas pictures for the AppSumo office..... check it out:
Take a look at some more real examples of CanvasPop canvases. All of these were made by simply uploading an image to CanvasPop. It's really that easy:
You can use CanvasPop to:
Let your creativity (or evil prankster inside) run wild, and make a hang-able canvas print now.
This CanvasPop deal gives you $99 worth of CanvasPop credit, for only 49 tacos (aka $49).
The AppSumo canvas print you see above is:
Grab your CanvasPop code right now and in a few days you can have a professionally-made canvas print of your logo!
P.S. Did I mention that CanvasPop has a stupid-awesome refund policy to make sure you're happy??
CanvasPop Refund Policy:
This Sumo likes companies that stand behind their products forever :-)
P.P.S. CanvasPop is also throwing in $30 off your next purchase when you grab this deal. So if you REALLY LIKE the print you get made.....your next one is gonna be $30 cheaper!
It is a great idea and I am really excited to receive my logo on canvas that I can decorate my office with! I am so glad AppSumo offers services and other things for businesses like mine, that are not so technologically oriented but still can benefit from new products and ideas!

I got a print of my company logo to use for video tutorials. The size, quality and color are all spot on. It took a little longer than usual, but when I emailed customer service asking about my order, I got a prompt reply within hours and my Canvas pop was at my dorr step within days. I'll definitely use Canvas Pop again!

I ordered two prints on a Friday. One for the office and one for my anniversary. I received the proofs on Monday. Thank God for the proofs because I didn't love the design I created of the canvas I ordered for the wife. I submitted a request for new proof and called customer service who were a delight to speak with. I just wanted to make sure they received my request and that the designers were going to get me a new proof. She checked the system and confirmed they received the submission and that she would send a message to the designers right then to send a new proof to me. Also asked me when I wanted my order to arrive. I told her that I was hoping by the end of the week. She said that would be a push, would next week work? I obliged. To my great surprise and delight, I received both prints on that Thursday, just in time for the anniversary. I couldn't believe it. They were able to get order through, modify a print, ship both, and have it arrive at my doorstep within days; both prints turning out perfect. I was amazed. Needless to say, I will be ordering from them again soon. Christmas is right around the corner. Thank you MasterSumo for teaching this portly summoling yet another great lesson.

I really liek this product! I am thinking about delivering a new one, there is also a similar deal on adsurf.net but this one is maybe better.
0 of 0 people found this helpful. Did you? November 5, 2012
I am dumbfounded by how AWESOME this one is. Having a deal on a way to decorate the office (aka dining room) is beyond cool. Please grab more of these!
The site is easy to use. Their timelines for samples & shipping are spot-on. Can't wait to order from them again!

Any estimated time for delivery? My order went in almost 3 weeks ago and it's still marked "manufacturing."
I'd like to order a 24 x 36. What amount of discount can I get and how do I order it?
Do you ship to Southeast Asia? If so does the $14 shipping apply to that location?
Nope, just Canada and U.S. for now

I am interested on a different size. What to do about it?
Different sizes have different costs, so you'll still get the discount, but will need to pay extra (depending on the size). Hope that helps!

Christopher, they probably don't want you adding on an additional coupon when redeeming your deal
You got it Josh!

Do you have shipping to Russia?
In Soviet Russia, Canvas ships YOU!
But no.....no shipping to Russia at this time.
Just U.S. and Canada.

What a pity, guys! But why? Is it a big problem to deliver to Russia?

Couple questions:
Canvaspop's website says flat $14 to Canada, and I assume that if I buy this deal I'll have no problems shipping to Canada at that $14 rate?
As well, it says no "combining" coupons. What does that mean? If I want to buy more than one coupon (and thus more than one print, but perhaps at a larger size than 16x20) how does that work?
Hey Christopher. Yes, shipping to Canada is $14 :-)
No combining coupons means that you cannot use more than one coupon on a single order.

80s-style music video marks Energy Wasting Day
By Michael Szabo
LONDON (Reuters Life!) - Electricity-squandering internet spoof character Dan Power is back, this time armed with a 1980s style music video to promote Energy Wasting Day 2009.
April 1 marks the second annual Energy Wasting Day, and the irrepressible Power has released the world's first "anti-eco" music download to mark the occasion.
"I got a car that burns up energy, it's fast and red and cool. I got a house that's leaking heat all day. I think that Al Gore is a fool," Power sings on his website -- www.energywastingday.com -- as he dances around gas-burning patio heaters with girls in yellow hot pants and tight red t-shirts bearing the logo "Polar Bears - Who Cares?"
The April Fool's Day spoof video is designed to promote awareness on climate change.
"We launched Energy Wasting Day two years ago with a range of corporate brands and NGOs to help make it easier for consumers to fight climate change in their day-to-day lives," said Tom Gribbin, campaign manager at The Climate Group.
"We thought: 'Let's turn all this climate change doom and gloom on its head' and created this spoof character and his campaign to raise awareness of how crazy it is to waste energy."
The campaign is organized by Together, a movement launched by The Climate Group along with companies and non-governmental organizations including Tesco and environmentalists WWF to promote energy efficiency to consumers.
The Energy Wasting Day website sells downloads of the song and the "Polar Bears - Who Cares?" t-shirts, but attempting to buy anything redirects viewers to Together.com. Continued...

Hudson -- City Council approved an honorary resolution March 5 to recognize Virginia A. Graber for her work with the city. Graber retired Feb. 1.
Graber began her employment with the city in October 1994 as a school crossing guard with the Police Department.
She served as a volunteer firefighter beginning January 1995.
In March 1997 Graber began work as the fire safety educator with the fire department. The position was reclassified as fire inspector in January 1999.
Graber coordinated the annual Safety Town Program for more than 6,000 children from 1997 through 2013.
Graber's son, Scott, was killed in a motorcycle accident on Oct. 13, 2013.
Fire Chief Jerry Varnes accepted the resolution on her behalf and relayed her thanks for her career in the city of Hudson.
"She felt it was a passion more than a career for herself," Varnes said. "She appreciates all the support she's had over the years, especially for Safety Town agenda. Her passion for educating the children about fire safety was what she was meant to do. She appreciates the support and opportunity."
Council President Hal DeSaussure thanked Graber for 19 years of service to the
community of Hudson.
"Graber has been and will continue to be an institution in this town and her service with the fire department and particularly with the children is something remarkable in this community," DeSaussure said. "Her service will continue in some capacity going forward."
Varnes said a part-time employee is filling the position, but the city has not decided on a replacement.

Three months to FREEDOM
In three months I will have built a portfolio of niche sites producing $2,000+ per month. I will detail exactly how in this NEWBIE thread. Site One:
The Limitless Man - Get Smarter, Think Faster, Be Stronger, Live Forever | The Limitless Man | Get Smarter, Think Faster, Be Stronger, Live Forever
. Target Keywords? Im sure you can guess by taking a look at the site. My strategy? Adsense/Adwords and Affiliate programs (no more than three programs). Not only am I webmaster for the site, Im a nootropic user, so if you have questions leave them in the thread.
DO NOT GO EASY ON ME! Constructive criticism is appreciated, as I am a former Marine and can take what you dish out. Is my strategy screwed? Is the layout crap? Is the niche oversaturated? Fire away. I will be posting progress daily (since I now have TONS of free time!).
Adsense already producing $2 a day. Not a bad start. Using Fiverr for link building. Listening to Patt Flynn and Andrew Warner religiously.
