On May 25, the 11th annual Tacoma Jazz and Blues Festival will bring some of the best regional players to the Swiss Pub and Harmon Pub & Brewery in downtown Tacoma and Stonegate Pizza on South Tacoma Way.
"What (the festival) means to me, and I think the other guys, is just keeping this music visible, keeping it relevant and letting lots of people realize there's all kinds of great jazz and blues happening around here," said Rich Wetzel, who books the festival with South Sound Blues Association president Gary Grape.
For this year's festival, the blues stage will be set up at the Harmon Pub, with music starting at 12:30 p.m. The big band stage will go from 1 to 6 p.m. at the Swiss, and the evening stage will showcase Wetzel's Groovin' Higher Jazz Orchestra - performing with special guest trumpet player, Mike Vax - starting at 8 p.m. at the Stonegate.
Vax – a native of San Francisco – is known for playing with the Stan Kenton Orchestra, the Clark Terry Big Bad Band and the U.S. Navy Show Band. "Every major entertainer you can think of – Mel Torme, all these people – he's played with," Wetzel said. "The last few years, he's been the bandleader of the Stan Kenton Alumni Band."
Vax will also give a trumpet clinic with the Tacoma Community College Jazz Band at 7:30 p.m. on May 21 at the TCC Student Center. The event is free and open to trumpet players and aspiring jazz musicians of all ages.
The blues headliner this year is keyboard player Arthur Migliazza, who will headline the Harmon from 5 to 6 p.m. Migliazza started playing piano at age 9 and his playing was influenced by listening to the likes of Otis Spann, Champion Jack Dupree and Professor Longhair.
Before he relocated to the Northwest, Migliazza was inducted into the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame and was a finalist at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in 2010.
"He's just a phenomenal keyboard player, boogie-woogie style blues," Grape said. "I've never heard anybody play as good as this guy can. When you watch or hear him play, you're just amazed at how fast his fingers fly around the keyboard."

- Hannah doesn't have to suffer. Please help me send a message to medicaid
Tell Medicaid to give Hannah the seizure medicine she needs: Stop limiting the medicine that stops her seizures, to just 4 doses a month
Hannah Mcleod is my sweet 12 year old daughter and she suffers from an unknown disorder from birth that has caused her to be severely handicapped, she lives on life support and has seizures frequently. We use diastat to stop her seizures but Florida Medicaid will only pay for 4 doses a month. So if she runs out of it before the month is up, we have to call an ambulance and wait for them to arrive and take her to the local Emergency room about 10 miles away. By the time we get there she is having a tonic clonic grand mal seizure and is jumping off the bed with violent seizures. They then give the the same medicine I give her at home, but a larger dose is required to stop it and the recovery period is also longer. So, medicaid would rather let her seizure last longer and be more severe, pay for an ambulance and emergency room visit then allow her to have access to the medicine she needs. Please sign and share this petition for Hannah. She has so little in this life and she's suffered so much already. She shouldn't have to suffer any more if she doesn't have to. Thank you!

Closing the Milk Gap for a Baby-Friendly America
February 8, 2009Women's Media Center friend Dr. Nanette Fondas (MomsRising) has framed our society's breastfeeding issues in a way that everyone can understand and care about, as a "milk gap": the difference between how much babies are breastfed vs how long pediatricians recommends. I posted it to my Facebook page, hope to be reading more about this! Read Nanette's post here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/nanette-fondas/baby-friendly-america-clo_b_164434.html

A £10 million sports institute will treat elite athletes, NHS patients and fitness-conscious Londoners under the same roof as part of the Olympic legacy.
The centre, which officially opens today, will lead the world in injury prevention and care — and help boost Britain's medal count at the Rio Games, predicted Lord Coe, chairman of the British Olympic Association.
"This institute is a great example of what we had in mind when we spoke about creating a lasting legacy from the London 2012 Games", he said.
"Not only will it deliver excellence in injury prevention and management for elite athletes, it will offer the same level of care to amateur sportsmen and women who were inspired by what they saw last summer."
The Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health in Tottenham Court Road will also promote the importance of exercise to the masses and prevent diseases blamed on "couch potato" lifestyles. Olympic and Paralympic athletes will be able to receive a consultation and scan in the same place. Performers from the West End stage are also among those who will benefit.
Dancer James Pullum, who appeared in Phantom of the Opera, is one of the first patients to benefit from advance treatment at the centre.
The 26-year-old from north London fell badly during dance practice five weeks ago and had to pull out of a UK tour of West Side Story. But the classically-trained performer is hoping to be back in shape within six months after being fast-tracked into treatment.
He told the Standard: "The pain was excruciating but they gave me an MRI scan on day one which you'd have to wait six weeks for on the NHS. I'm hoping I'm going to be back on my feet soon." The institute is a partnership between University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, the British Olympic Association, the English Institute of Sport, and the HCA private hospital group.
Professor Fares Haddad, the centre's director, said today that inactivity — rather than obesity — was the "biggest threat to wellbeing".
He added: "Our clinical and academic expertise will not only help our athletes win medals but help treat 'weekend warriors' who pick up sporting injuries. We will also have a role in promoting the benefits of exercise to our patients.
"So regardless of whether you are a cancer patient, a respiratory patient, a cardiac patient or a diabetic patient, if we can introduce exercise into your treatment programme then you will benefit.
"People talk a great deal about obesity as a major problem affecting society, but it's actually inactivity that is the biggest threat to our well-being."

2000 Alignment issue
I saw a thread or two on this before....but my Escalade is drifting to the left. It was real bad, then I had an alignment ($250!) to put in adjustable front end parts...and it corrected it somewhat. There is still a slight drift that I have to correct when I am driving on the highway mostly.
Is there anything else I should be paying attention to other than the alignment?

Re: 2000 Alignment issue
Make sure all your tires have the same pressure, it can make a difference
Re: 2000 Alignment issue
I've already checked the tire pressure...that was the first thing to come to mind.
Thanks for the reply.

This may sound a little silly but my husband bought me a ROOMBA automatic carpet cleaner and I first I thought, "this is probably a piece of junk with shiny buttons...there's no way it can clean a carpet!" Well, much to my surprise ROOMBA actually does work. I love that I can turn it on, close the door (block off entries that I don't want it to go in or under) and let it do its thing. This saves me time and I think it's worth the purchase. Thiema"

Anyone here using a Yaqui slide holster ?
I'm thinking of getting one for my Kimber Ultra Carry II, but wanted some feedback before I sped the dollars.
Looking at the Galco tan leather version.
Thanks in advance !
I've carried on but didn't care for it didn't see to hold the gun tight enough for me

Have used them and don't care for them as they expose most of your weapons barrel to the elements and fail to protect like a good leather holster does. They have been around forever and Galco's version is as good as any but due to the above, I don't care for them unless it's for range use. For another $10 to $20 you can get yourself a good holster that will protect your weapon.
I use a homemade IWB belt slide holster but wouldn't trust and OWB to keep my pistol secure while sitting down and such, I can imagine the barrel getting shoved up while catching a chair arm.

I had one for my Springfield 1911. I hated it. It's gone!!!!
I have one for my Browning Hi Power. It does ok because my gun is not blued. The issue I have is the way it holds the gun in the hammer will dig into my shirt. I've already holed one shirt and I'm very careful about using it now.
got one for a glock 36. i never had any problems with it. seems to work best with a smaller gun.
Rocky hit the nail on the head and it goes for this or any holster shorter than the pistol it's carrying. When you sit, pressure on the muzzle of the firearm can push it up and out of the holster. Another problem with most of the Yaqui slides I've seen, even for just range use, is lack of any type of front sight track. With the muzzle sticking thru the bottom of the holster, it's easy to snag the front sight on the bottom edge of the holster during the draw.
"He who makes things with his hands is a laborer, he who makes things with his hands and his head is a craftsman, he who makes things with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist."
bought one a while back for my 1911. really don't like it too much. I have relegated it to my range collection because it does work for holding the gun there, but it doesn't grip the gun well. I have had my gun almost release from 2 holsters and this is one of them. Not for regular carry with an OWB. It also takes heavy clothing to cover the gun in these holsters because they sit out so much... if memory serves, mine is a galco.
I bought one for my Kahr MK9. I didn't like it at all. Didn't keep my gun close to me and it felt like it was flopping around. It might work better with a bigger gun - don't know.
Thanks for the quick replies and the information from everyone !
I saw one in a gun store today, but I was not carrying my Kimber at the time. Had to go to Lubbock for heart tests, so I decided to wear a snubby 357 in an ankle holster so I wouldn't scare the nurses too bad, LOL.
Anyway, the gun shop let me try a 1911 in the holster, the front sight kept hanging on the bottom front edge and made unholstering in a hurry just a tad bit questionable.
Y'all have helped me a lot with this, I'll save my money ! Thanks.
Ain't that great eh? Inside three hours Dave has had some great feedback - and it has all helped guide him on a decision.
I think that's pretty darned impressive Thx to all who added their thoughts - this is what makes CC such a valuable resource.

My problem with this Kimber Ultra Carry II 3 inch 1911 is finding a holster that will keep the top of the pistol in close to my body. I've tried quite a few and the mistakes are getting costly.......
Because of hip surgery and the location of a fairly recent scar and painful area, an IWB holster is out of the question. So, I have been looking at and trying various OWB pancake styles. I have narrowed it down to styles where the majority of the pistol is at or below the waist line, or belt. My reasoning on that is that by having a bit of a spare tire around my middle, a high rise pancake OWB holster just makes the top of the pistol push out, and that is not good for good concealment. By having the majority of the pistol below the belt line, the extra padding on my hip tends to push the bottom of the pistol out.... and the top in ! Just what I am wanting.
I have been scouring through site after site trying to find one like that.... open top, tension adjustment, tan leather OWB pancake with the gun in a 'low', but canted position. Galco makes one called the 'side snap scabbard', the gun sits low, and there is a suifficient forward cant. They only make them in black, and instead of the belt sliding through slots, it is held in place by snaps. The description claims it is very comfortable, but I have never tried a holster utilizing the snap on method of securing it to the belt. If that would work, I might have to forget the brown color and just go with black.
Unless anyone has any other ideas....... ??
Edit: just saw the K&D Eagle Defender holster. That just might work.
Carry my 1911 in one.
I like it.
Gun control is hitting what you aim at
I don't think I'd worry about the color if the holster is what you want. I've always gone for that off-dark brown (can't remember exactly what it's called) that sort of goes with everything.Originally Posted by DaveT
Glad to see you got the feedback that saved you from adding another holster to the "collection in the drawer".

Lindsay Lohan denies endorsing Ariva
Credit: AP
Lindsay Lohan is not supplementing her income with an endorsment deal from Ariva, a smoking cessation lozenge, Us Weekly reports. Rumors started circulating that the out-of-work actress signed a deal with Ariva to be seen photographed carrying their product after several photos emerged of Lohan doing just that. "Lindsay has not been paid to endorse Ariva," her rep told Us. "She is just a fan and is using it to help cut down her smoking as she is currently in the studio recording tracks for her third album."

furnace cycling / shut down
HI. My Lennox is doing a few weird things and I' just wondering if anyone can diagnose!: I have a Lennox Elite, about 10 years old, with a programmable thermostat
Weird #1: Late at night the blower cycles on for 2 seconds, off again, back on 4 seconds later. I counted 46 times once before it stayed on and the heat came on.
Weird # 2: Several times, the above happens when the thermostat is not displaying a call for heat. (Thermostat set for 17 C, temp showing 19 C for example).
Weird # 3: It shuts down for lack of ignition once every couple of days - and three times just today. Turning off at the breaker for a few minutes sometimes solves this one, but not always.
I had the flame detector replaced last year...
thanks for any ideas!
Clean the flame rod with steel wool and it should end the nuisance lockouts. As for the blower, I would look to see if the motor is over heating and cutting off on the internal overload or if the fan control is broken. How cold is the house when you hear it cycling on and off?
temperature varies - that long 46 cycles it was a cold night - maybe 16C / 60F. How can I check if the blower is overheating / cutting off?
Thanks bigMikeB
It may not be necessary to check the motor. The blower comes on when the heat exchanger is hot. If the air being pulled in the return is low @60F, it will make the blower go on and off because it is dropping the heat exchanger temp rapidly, so with a cold return air that is normal behavior.
I hope I am talking about the right thing - the 'blower' I am talking about isn't the fan (that blows air round the house) the blower I hear cycling is, I guess, the exhaust fan, blowing the exhaust up the flue. Does that still make sense?
Oh, sorry about that. I thought you meant the blower not the inducer fan.
How many pressure switches are in that unit?
Hi bigMikeB
my fault on the blower! Inducer fan - that sounds better. You're losing me on the pressure switches - any clues what to look for? What does a pressure switch look like!?
look at the pics in this post and you'll see a pressure switch. Item "A" in the first pic.
got it - there's just one on mine
Then I would see if the motor feels hot to the touch when it's going on and off like that. And see of you can check it with a volt meter and see if it is getting power but not running.
As soon as the thermostat calls for heat, the inducer fan is supposed to come on and stay. So you have a flashing light on one of the control boards? Many furnaces will flash the trouble code.
Inducer blower is a common one.
The motor has to turn and the flue has to be open enough to give the switch its signal from the inducer blower wheel turning.
I have pulled many birds out of the inducer blower wheel.
You can check with a volt meter at the connector going to the inducer motor to see if it has power when the cycle starts and the poser stays on.
This will tell you if the motor is bad, or if the system is telling the draft inducer motor to stop.
The motors usually don't spin then stop.
If they are spinning freely, they are usually good and the problem is in the sensor switch or a blockage.
Thanks for these leads. I've been watching it closely these last couple of days. The repeated 2 or 3 second cycling (up to 40 odd times) of the inducer fan is followed by a longer period of inducer fan during which the spark fires, but doesn't ignite a flame. This then happens twice more, and the furnace locks out (Flashing light matches lockout code that flame wasn't detected 3 times). All this is happening when the thermostat shows the room temperature is higher than the set temperature. So it's usually at night, when we have the thermostat set at 15 C and the room temperature is around 17 or 18 C. (I assume the thermostat isn't calling for heat in that case). Should some of the furnace still cycle without a call for heat from the thermostat?

YouTube: Do parents fake movies?
On YouTube, you'll find many adorable videos of kids singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," but one of them, titled "Girl singing with her mouth closed funny hidden talent," has suddenly scored more than 420,000 views—and a number of negative comments.
"Wait, was that real?" asked one—as in, is it possible to sing with one's mouth closed?
"Fake," said another. "Fake but funny."
"It's real!" said one more.
Thirty-one pages of debate followed.
Mary Napoli understands the uploader's pain. She posted a video called "Family home destroyed by avalanche – children to blame," which reportedly showed her two sons blanketing her home in a 5-pound bag of flour while she was in the bathroom dealing with the stomach flu.
Although the video was supposed to be for friends and family, it ended up getting almost 4 million views on YouTube – and plenty of negative responses from people who claimed it was a fake. Her family even appeared on the "Today Show" on NBC to debate the authenticity of the video. "I had people pinpointing, 'Oh she has flour on her pants,' and freeze framing the whole thing," she said to Metro.
"Honestly, it was almost mostly negative feedback," Naopli added. "I had huge emotional problems over it, I was just doing for it for family. I definitely have tougher skin for it." She still maintains today that the video is authentic.
Whether or not the video is true or not will still remain up for debate, but one thing is for certain: The problem of faking YouTube videos for online stardom may cause problems for the child stars. Dr. Bonnie Eaker Weil, a New York City psychotherapist and author of "Make Up, Don't Break Up," said that parents may be harming their children by falsifying a clip, especially if that child becomes an online celebrity. "You can be teaching a child that lying and fabricating is okay," she said.
"They can grow up and become narcissistic and learn how to manipulate. It also makes them feel that the only way to be loved is to get attention in these ways," Weil explained.
Either way, the negative comments, especially those about appearance, can have adverse affects on children who may not understand the difference between reading comments online and real world critique. "Three million people are judging you. People can be mean and sadistic," she said.
"What you want to do as a parent is talk about the bullying that happens on YouTube," she said. "YouTube (comments) are another form of a reality show. This is another chance to tell children that (these comments) are not the real world, this is not reality."
Bashar Akhtar agrees that the negative comments can be hurtful. His son and daughter became online stars after their video "Son's reaction to 'Empire Strikes Back' reveal!!!!," which showed his son Faris' cute shocked face after he found out that Darth Vader was Luke's father, received over 3 million views. "The downside is that a couple of nasty comments were posted but once you realize the people hide behind their keyboards you can ignore them," he said to Metro during an e-mail interview.
Akhtar maintains the video is true. "It's 100% genuine, I don't think Faris or Shazia are that good actors!" he said.
Like Napoli, he claims the clip was uploaded only to show family, and both parents were surprised at the negative reaction. "There's so much stuff in the world, and this thing became this huge news story. I thought people would find it funny or cute but not controversial," Napoli explained.
The good news is that both families claim online celebrity hasn't affected their kids. While Akhtar's daughter Shazia liked being on TV, his son really didn't care. Napoli claims no one recognizes her children from the video, and they only remember the clip when she trades stories about the destructive power of children. "They'll say 'Oh my gosh, you're the people with the flour video!'" she said.
Either way Akhtar doesn't care what others think, he's just proud he created a "Star Wars" fan. "He loves 'Star Wars' - and keeps trying to Jedi Mind trick his sister," Akhtar said.

The Environment Agency has outlined its intention for boaters and businesses located on the rivers that they manage to contribute more to its navigation budget by increasing its registration charges for boats by 14% per annum for at least the next three years. The British Marine Federation and other User Groups have raised serious concerns about the damaging impact of these proposals on the boating market. The need for the decision about the scale of increase to be made on the basis of sound data was highlighted yesterday at the EA's National Navigation Users Forum. ...Read More... Direct Link

Floating Paradise
A sunken dining area on Julie Higgs and Dave Stickler's Oregon houseboat is warm weather central. The table is a salvaged glass door atop ceramic planters.
The lushly planted deck often serves as settings for outdoor feasts replete with pitchers of Tahitian rum cocktails and platters of prawns. It all has the feel of a permanent vacation.

It reminds me of a southern runs house. To me they are a super blended family who has struggles. Its boring but reality is more like that than what vh1 typically makes it our to be. I remember watching the movie Breach & saying "this movie is going on forever". It was based on a true story...boring. But it was a good film IMO. Anyway I like watching it compared to the other crap on vh1.

Diversity is
driving innovation at American Express
Co. as its Blue Work program marries work style preferences with
workspace, according to the company's Chief Diversity Officer Kerrie Peraino, who was recently
interviewed by the editors of DiversityInc.
The project, being
shepherded by the financial firm's human resources, global real estate and
global technology teams, is lowering costs while improving productivity and
innovation, Peraino told DiversityInc. in a video interview.
"We're dealing with
a very real business issue that has a cost-save opportunity," she said. "There
is not a business today that isn't wrestling with the high price of real estate.
Our motto is 'Let's get rid of space, not people.' That is a driver for us."
The Blue Work
program has identified four types of work spaces: Hub, Club, Roam and Home. Hub-based
employees have jobs that require face-to-face time in one of the company's
office locations. Club employees go into a hub office no more than three times
a week, either because they work part time or work some days from another
location, such as home or another American Express campus. Club employees check
into a hub office and are given space to use that day.
Increased innovation
"Our Sydney, Singapore
and London offices who have some Blue Work space [dedicated to Club employees]
are finding it really increases collaboration and innovation among team
members, who are seeing each other more frequently in shared space," Peraino
Company leaders who
were initially worried or
uncomfortable about losing control of employees not assigned a permanent space
have been swayed by increased productivity, engagement and idea generation, she
Roam employees are "road
warriors," such as sales people or someone with client management responsibilities,
who have no office. "These are employees we are paying to not be in the office.
They are out closing deals and meeting new customers, so why should we be
paying for office space," Peraino said.
employees are given a stipend to work from home "and we are not paying real
estate for [them]," she said.
"Blue Work helps us
deal with multiple generations in the workplace today," Peraino told
DiversityInc., noting on any given day, American Express offices have an
occupancy rate of approximately 50 percent, as people are out of the office
"[This program]
helps us meet people where they want to be met, in terms of preferred work
type, and we marry that with what the job requires. Not every job requires you
to be sitting in a corporate office or for the company to bear the expense of
company space. Plus, you have people across generations who want a different
[working] arrangement."

On Monday, Sierra Wireless [2]announced it has entered into an agreement for the acquisition of Sagemcom's machine-to-machine (M2M) business. Sierra Wireless has submitted a binding offer to acquire substantially all of the assets of the business for $56.6 million in cash.
Sagemcom [3](Dallas, Texas, USA), also known as Sagem Communications, is a technology group active in broadband, telecom, energy, and document management, was an early entrant in the M2M market back in 1998. The company has successfully built a growing M2M business that includes 2G [4]and 3G [5]wireless modules, as well as rugged terminals for GSM-Railway (GSM-R) applications.
Sagemcom M2M offers Sierra Wireless (Vancouver, Canada) an enhanced market position in key segments, including payment, transportation, and railways, as well as new geographical expansion into Brazil, says Sierra Wireless.
According to Didier Dutronc, senior vice president and GM of the M2M Embedded Solutions at Sierra Wireless, Sierra Wireless is already active in both the payments and transportation segments.
"The acquisition is expected to significantly increase our market share in [payments and transportation]," says Dutronc. "Railways is a new segment for Sierra Wireless. As Sagemcom enjoys the number one market position in railways, it will contribute to putting SWIR in a stronger position in the global M2M market."
Sagemcom currently has local sales presence in Brazil and is already serving large customers there both in payment and transportation sectors, says Dutronc.
Sagemcom [3]'s M2M business generated approximately $50 million in revenue.
According to Sierra Wireless, once the acquisition is complete Sagemcom will be able to enter into a definitive agreement with Sierra Wireless. The companies expect this to occur in the third quarter.

1. Congratulations on your latest release, Amongst The Ruins. Can you tell us a little bit about the book?
Thank you.
Amongst the Ruins is the first book in my Chronicles of 2020 series. It picks up 200 years after global nuclear devastation and follows Shilo. We follow Shilo from adolescent to womanhood in book one, discovering what life is like now for a young girl, for women, and especially for one who looks 'different' from the rest of the remaining population.
Her difference garners interest – both good, bad, and unexpected, by her.
2. The Dystopian genre is hot right now. What sets Amongst The Ruins apart from the other YA Dystopians out there?
While every YA dystopian will be similar to an extent, Amongst the Ruins is almost a combination of everything I enjoy in a dystopian book: the angst of coming of age in a ruined world, the new customs implemented in such a time, and the development of characters.
However, where most YA is very subdued in certain areas, which 'fade to black' and such, I don't. I've kept in mind the age of my reader, yet I don't pretend they aren't aware of sex and harsh realities. You won't find graphic and inappropriate material, but you will find honesty within the dystopian world I put to paper.
3. Which character do you relate to the most and why?
I'm going to say I relate most to Shilo, but it's probably also other people will relate to her. The feeling of growing up and feeling so different – sometimes segregated from your peers – is familiar to most that are living or have lived through the teen girl stage.
4. Did you have a character or scene that you struggled with?
Yes, but I can't tell you. LOL.
Let's just say that a decision needed to be made and it was painful, making it so much more of a struggle to do and make work. I probably re-wrote this certain part twenty times before I felt like I'd done the right thing and put the right amount of emotion into it. *Let's see who reads it and can tell me which I'm talking about.*
5. If you were able to go to dinner with one of your characters, who would you take with you, and why?
Hey, wait a second; these are my characters, why can't I take them all?
I would take one of my favorite characters – Mister Reed. I fell in love writing his character and scenes. While he isn't a huge cast member, the moments he's involved are just so full of life – to me. I loved writing him and extended a couple of scenes because of him.
6. Do you have any writing quirks?
I can't say that I really have any quirks, at least not that I've noticed. All I could really disclose is that I have to have everything within my arm's reach before I can sit and write. This doesn't just include writing related items. This includes drink, food, snacks, cell phone, Ipod, and yes a dishcloth. (Don't ask).
7. Favorite author?
There are far too many to really pick one over all, but I will go with an author whom really changed my single minded reading – Edgar Allen Poe. After him, I learned that Judy Blume and Sweet Valley High was not the only non school related book, much to my grandmother's horror.
8. Favorite book?
This is like 'Sophie's Choice'. It's an impossible question for me to answer with so many books I have yet to read.
9. What are three things your readers don't know about you?
Hmmm …
1. I have a sick/perverse sense of humor and a foul mouth (yeah, you trip and fall – I'm going to laugh the whole time I help you up. There will probably be quite a few f-bombs from me too.)
2. My hobby is cake baking (like three tier, intricately designed cakes that people actually pay me to make)
3. My public writing originated on fanfiction before I moved to Textnovel.
10. What is the strangest thing you've ever eaten?
Eating weird or strange is not really my scene, but I did once eat a chocolate covered cricket. (Sorry Pinocchio) It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, the chocolate covered up most of the 'cricket flavor'. No, I wouldn't eat it again & yes, I passed on the grasshopper.
11. What is the craziest thing you've ever done?
This is a loaded question. You trying to get me put in jail? ;o) Out of fear for the retribution I would receive from others involved, I cannot disclose such information. :o)
12. If Amongst The Ruins were made into a film, what actors/actresses would you like to see cast?
Oh wow, you're the first to ask this. While I was inspired by a couple of actors for certain character traits in my book, I've never picked a cast – until now! (Thanks for challenging me.)
Shilo – Juno Temple
Mazy – Alison Pill
Adley – Matt Lauria
Karhn – Julianna Marguiles
Kain – Robbie Amell
Haden – William Moseley
Elrik - Jeremy Sumpter
General Vahn – Gerard Butler
Jin – Ken Watanabe
I could probably list more and more for other characters, but those curios will have to read the book and let me know your suggestions! I'd love to hear from you. Join me at www.saewod.webs.com to tell me who you would cast.
Thank you so much Lisa for having me today!

Another excerpt from the upcoming Hugh Nibley multimedia ebook on politics and religion. See the previous Bennett clip here.
Another excerpt from the upcoming Hugh Nibley multimedia ebook on politics and religion. See the previous Bennett clip here.
Pingback: Bob Bennett on Church and State | Hugh Nibley Off the Record « Only Moderately Undecided
The two-party system seems to be representative of two basic laws: the law of the harvest and the law of compassion. They are separate and seem to contradict one another, but they are both necessary and must function together. The adversary would have us choose one side and vilify the other. In the church we understand that justice and mercy both apply in our lives, and that the reconciliation of the two is hard work and made possible only by the atonement.
In politics we make an error by deferring the hard work of solving problems to national leaders, when we really should be doing as much work locally as possible. That's the model that Moses gave us – the bottom-up approach. But today the direction of conversation is switched, and the politicians have the burden of advertising to the citizens because the citizens have abdicated their responsibility to think for themselves.
That's why politicians always sell out. Bob Bennett seems to have some awareness of the problem but I doubt he can do anything to solve it. A couple years ago when I was exploring libertarianism, I had the opportunity to interview Rand Paul a few times during his Senate campaign. I was very disappointed to learn firsthand that the Pauls, who have a reputation for speaking their minds openly and honestly, are still playing the political game like everyone else. Their belief is that you have to do what it takes to get into power and then try to change Washington from the inside.
I'm afraid that Obama was right – you can't change Washington from the inside.

A rinse out is a conditioning tool. It does different things for different folks (detangle, smooth, prep for leave in or styler etc). It's the next step after cleansing, mainly used to moisturize. But mostly it does exactly what it says, which is rinse completely out of your hair. Some folks don't rinse, but at that point, it would be considered a "leave in"...

Hybrid Recycled Bike Demonstrates Alternate Manufacturing Processes [Video]
FAB Velo demonstrates that product longevity can be achieved through modularity.
One look at the velomobile and it's easy to see how it could be the perfect way to express your true self, especially when it's made from household items, scrap materials, off-the-shelf components, and even 3D printed parts. The real reason design lecturer Mark Richardson assembled the "FAB Velo" however, was to make a statement about product longevity.
Carried out at Monash University Art Design & Architecture in Melbourne, the project was part of an in-depth look at DIY personal transport, domestic-scale production, as well as reusability. Despite issue with supply chain consistency, and incompatible source materials, the team were able to create a modular construction kit thanks to 3D-printed couplings.
The overarching aim of the project was to prove that "product longevity" can be achieved through modularity, especially if components are designed up-front for multiple lives as opposed to one singular lifecycle.

He Couldn'T Keep Grip (Children's Poetry) : - Poem by Kim Robin Edwards
See the golden goose.
Flutter its wings.
The boy from the matchbox.
Wants golden wings.
So he wakes up the giant.
From his dreary sleep.
'Cause the goose is what the giant had.
To keep up his keep..
So the boy climbs down a string.
That's attached to the lace of a shoe.
He keeps real quiet.
So the giant doesn't move.
He swings 'round and 'round.
Trying to keep in groove.
The giant stands up, in a hurriedly move.
The boy falls off the string.
'Cause he couldn't keep grip.
Clambered through the keyhole.
Going flippy flip..
He landed on the ground.
Taking off in a flash.
He took off in a flash; saying,
'this place is a jip'

Blackberry Tour
Hi guys, new to the forum... new to BMW ownership as well. Will save that for the new member introduction forum though. Anyway, I just picked up a CPO 2007 530xi with nav and my Tour isn't synching very well/at all either. I've searched the boards up and down and it seems like people have had mixed results with the Tour (including in this thread). Dealers iPhone synched seamlessly, but my Tour is acting strange. Address book never loads, the icon on the idrive screen just blinks (antenna icon), I can dial a call from my phone and hear it through the car, but that's about it. Even after I disconnect from the call, the call appears as if it's still "Active" in the car. Only way to end it is to delete the phone from the bluetooth pairing screen. Frustrating!
Seeing as there have been some success stories with the Tour in an 07 5 series, is it more likely the software in the phone itself or in the car that may need updating? Any feedback is appreciated, this forum is a great resource.

The Queen of the South in Matthew 12:42, authored by Soleilmavis Liu, is a strong and well-reasoned piece to demonstrate whom the Queen of the South is, by using plenty of detailed historical data and facts. It lets the readers understand where the Ends of the Earth are, how the Queen of the South comes from the Ends of the Earth, , and what the judgment is etc. Readers will understand God's big plan about the Queen of the South by answering all these questions. More information about the book, please visit: http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/soleilmavis
The purpose of this website
(1) Educate public about voice to skull, mind reading, mind control technologies, and bring public awareness of abuses and tortures of such technologies
I have collected many reported articles which introduce 'mind control technologies'. The listing of these articles will not mislead readers; it is a short cut for readers to learn what mind control technologies are.
(2) Urge government to investigate the abuses and tortures of voice to skull, mind reading and mind control technologies according to evidences and facts.
The Facts and Evidences:
I was controlled by remote Voice to Skull technologies and Mind Control technologies, and I was brought inside US Embassy in Hong Kong

Online Petitions
God gave mankind freedom and liberty. God never controlled mankind's minds. Only Satan and his supporters wanted to control mankind's minds. Nazis were the first to develop the mind control weapons. With the help of Satan, they even wanted to conquer the whole world. Even though the world had destroyed Nazis, People had not been able to prevent the proliferation of mind control weapons, and prevent such weapons from falling into the hands of followers of Dragon and Beasts. More followers of Dragon and Beast started to research and develop mind control weapons. The Dragon, Beasts and their followers wanted to control their followers and also used their mind control weapons to abuse and torture God's people secretly.
If governments ignored victims' complaint, and did not investigate and sentence mind control torturers, they became supporters of Satan and Beasts. They would become heads of Beast. If mankind ignored victims' complaint, and did not stand up and support justice, it became followers of Satan and Beasts.
Torturers who use Voice to skull and mind control technologies to abuse and torture victims, are unrighteousness; Governments and the public who ignore victims' complaints, are unrighteousness.
God judges mankind for their unrighteousness.
Romans: 3-5 If our unrighteousness brings out God's righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument). 3-6 Certainly not! if that were so, how could God judge the world?

Eastern Indigo Snake
The eastern indigo snake (Drymarchon couperi) has not been seen at the Conservancy's Apalachicola Bluffs and Ravines Preserve in 20 years, although it's possible that some may linger. Current staff has never seen so much as a snake shed, and – since a large shed like this is hard to miss – they are thought to be extirpated, or locally extinct.
Docile and remarkably beautiful snakes, indigos are not dangerous to people and were once routinely collected for the pet trade. Florida's largest native snakes, male indigos commonly reach 7-8 feet in length. The slightly smaller female produces annual clutches of 6 to 12 eggs, which result in 16-24" hatchlings.
Some of these snakes may travel up to two to three miles during warmer seasons in search of cooler habitat and appropriate prey. Each will return every autumn to the same gopher tortoise colony where it began – and often to the very same burrow.
In 1978 indigos were federally listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. Threats to the snake included loss of habitat, over-collection for the pet trade, and gassing of burrows by rattlesnake hunters. They are also often killed on the roads by vehicles, or by misinformed humans.
One or two indigo populations are known to remain on Eglin Air Force Base in the Florida panhandle. Others still live in central Florida and Brevard County. There is also a good-sized population in south Florida.
It's ironic that while indigos have mostly vanished from large, forested tracts in north Florida, larger communities remain in highly-populated central and south Florida.
But, indigos hibernate during cold weather – going down into gopher tortoise burrows when temperatures reach the 20s – and it rarely gets that cold further south. When tortoises were heavily harvested and suffered habitat loss in north Florida, the indigo snake population was impacted as well.
Thanks to Orianne' Society's herpetologist Dirk J. Stevenson and the Conservancy's David Printiss for many of these facts.

text: Apparently Clay Aiken has decided this whole singing thing is just not working out the way he hoped. Clay is set to announce that he is running for Congress in his home state of North Carolina. He would run as a Democrat and would face several other challengers in the Democratic primary scheduled for May 6th. That means he has five months to convince the people in his district that he is the right person for the job. Clay plans on singing his speeches and the only question he will debate is whether he and Ruben Studdard are the best 1-2 combination in American Idol history. According to The Washington Blade, Clay has been meeting with campaign type people and doing what is necessary to make sure he doesn't have to spend any of his own money to win the primary and then general election.

True love, real love, the kind we all crave is more than a wonderful feeling or powerful attraction. Love is a decision; a desire to seek the constant good of the person we love. Love is a desire to make the object of our affection happy. Now, no human love is perfect, but the goal of a loving relationship is to seek each other's good and be ready to forgive each other's failings along the way.
You are experiencing a breakdown that was caused by imperfect love; a relationship that was not focused on seeking the good of each of the spouses. But despite the fact that this love relationship is no longer something you can rely on, you can still experience love, and in it's perfection, because Christ is the one who will accept you as you are and show you this love.
Love is always patient and kind; love is never jealous; love is not boastful or conceited, it is never rude and never seeks its own advantage; it does not take offense or store up grievances. Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but finds its joy in the truth. It is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes. – 1 Corinthians 13:4 – 7.

Hi David,
I updated the project/bigbang/pom.xml to use the latest maven-remote-
resources-plugin and bundle. (I've also modified the apacheds and
shared bigbang branches to construct what I think are OK legal files).
I also added a couple more plugins that should be helpful to check
the project "legal status":
- geronimo maven-tools-plugin. This verifies that there is a LICENSE
and NOTICE file in every output artifact such as jar, source jar, or
javadoc jar. I'm surprised this functionality isn't available
anywhere else but AFAICT it isn't.
- maven-rat-plugin. You run this with mvn rat:check. I recommend
doing a clean first. It generates a report target/rat.txt that lists
all the files and whether it thinks there might be something wrong
with them as far as having a license header or suchlike.
I have a couple of suggestions:
1. go with the flow, don't fight city hall, etc etc and put the tags
in xxx/tags like everyone else instead of xxx/releases. This would
let us eliminate the maven-release-plugin configuration everywhere
except project/pom.xml.
2. Put a release profile in project/pom.xml that is similar to the
one maven uses. Parameterize it something like what I have done for
geronimo so its fairly easy to stage stuff to your people.apache.org
location for votes. I've written this up for geronimo and it seems
to work, including the stage plugin and staging the site. http://

Before you plan your election party, make your peace with the fact that a poor outcome could put a total downer on the evening. Just by the laws of the unbiddable psyche (Malcolm Gladwell could probably explain this), some people will blame you for the whole government just because they were at your house when it happened. There. Ready?
If you have a telly and a computer, you can put the serious channel on the big screen and then some amusing thing on the small one (I personally will attend BBC1 for the serious stuff. Maybe I like Jeremy Vine's psephological hand-flapping, maybe I don't. I don't like mulled wine or Pimm's. But I will still drink them, at the onset of the appropriate season. It's all about fixing some unalterables in your life, isn't it? So you don't, I don't know, fly away.) Most people will go to Channel 4 for their comedy election. I am gonna skip the second telly and just use the kitchen area for people with incredibly loud voices who will shout over the main telly. Comedy is all very well if you're on your own, but you know, you get your friends round, then sit together, waiting for other people to make you laugh. It's like the saying: "why buy a dog and bark at burglars yourself?" Nope, sorry, it's the opposite of that. It's "why buy a dog if you already have a raft of your own measures for frightening burglars?"
It isn't meant to be blue. Ha. You could probably confect some kind of aesthetic conceit, have giant bowls of crisps dyed blue, stimulate a physical echo of the revulsion you feel at modern Conservatism. But it's a bit one-note, and what a waste of crisps! I am going to do colour-themed florentines (you can get blue glace cherries), and leave it at that. Everything else will be regulation colour, and very simple. I hark back to the 60s, when finger-food wasn't status-sensitive, when even cabinet ministers (probably) served Ritz crackers. All you need is something salty, really.
Wotsits, and florentines. What's not to like? Yeah, that was before I realised Clegg rhymed with egg. Now I'm thinking crisps, biscuits, devilled Cleggs.
The problem is the sheer length of the night: you ideally want something you could drink for eight hours, straight, without becoming incapable. I don't know about you, but I personally am five years older than I was last time there was an election, and pretty much the only thing I can drink for eight hours without becoming incapable is Dioralyte. I am going for a low-percentage prosecco, turned multi-coloured with liqueur. Of course it hasn't passed my notice that red wine is already red, and white wine is already yellow. So it wouldn't be the work of Hercules to just get some blue alcopops.
I tried election phrase bingo, it only works if everybody is sitting still and concentrating. That would be a good game for people who were very easy to discipline, imagine, say, 30 Victorian children. If those are your guests, you might want to rethink your drinks. For regular, lawless guests, who won't concentrate on anything, I'm going to try upping the stakes a bit (come on, it's only a government . . .) with gambling. Some kind of sweepstake, where everybody is matched to an MP that they wear as a badge (choose those ones that in early, Congleton and stuff) and then if you win, you get three quid and a big cheer. You could also open a book on the likely outcome (you can get the odds from a bookies, but you have to make it clear that you've done so, that you're not actively willing a 20-seat Tory majority). The good thing about this is that nobody will stay 'til the bitter end, so however much you win or lose, you'll end up with all the money.
It sounds like a big deal, doesn't it, you imagine everybody's rooting for one side, then it turns out there is someone who definitely isn't. And they either get incredibly defensive and start trying to talk about policies (People! This isn't the night), or else they're very quiet and furtive, like a Millwall supporter in a West Ham pub. I'm going to enforce a devil's advocacy rule: you have to argue and cheer and suchlike, vigorously, in support of everybody except the party you voted for. It will still be pretty obvious who thinks what, but I feel that saying the exact opposite of your view takes the heat out of things a bit. I very much doubt this will happen.
When will they go home?
They'll leave when they want. Your party officially lasts until the results are in, so in the event of a postal-vote snarl up, that could be a week. Don't fight it. Give in.

MedU Case Studies are online educational tools that provide virtual patients for students in medical clerkships. Dana has obtained:
WISE-MD (Web Initiative for Surgical Education), a set of eleven surgery modules. It consists of video presentations concerning medical fundamentals of the condition followed by patient-doctor interactions involving patient history, physical exam, laboratory studies, imaging studies, decision making, surgery, and post operative care.
CLIPP (Computer Assisted Learning in Pediatrics Program), a set of 31 patient cases. CLIPP pediatric case studies present patient scenarios and ask questions to test student's knowledge, related to diagnosis and treatment of conditions, in a step by step manner. After users submit answers to the questions results and comments are provided with references.
fmCASES (The Family Medicine Computer-Assisted Simulations for Educating Students), 29 interactive virtual patient cases encompass the learning objectives of the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine (STFM) Family Medicine Clerkship Curriculum. Case content also draws heavily from other projects in which STFM played a central role: FMCR (Family Medicine Curriculum Resources) and the Future of Family Medicine.
SIMPLE (Simulated Internal Medicine Patient Learning Experience), 36 interactive virtual patient cases are designed to encompass the learning objectives of the Clerkship Directors in Internal Medicine (CDIM)-Society for General Internal Medicine Core Medicine Clerkship Curriculum Guide Version 3.0 comprehensively. Although designed for use by third-year medical students, SIMPLE is an excellent learning tool for many other health care professionals.
In order to access MedU Case Studies, you will first have to register. Make sure to register with a UVM email address NOT a vtmednet or personal email address such as gmail or hotmail. A confirmation link will be sent to your email address. You will only have to do this once. In the future log in with your UVM email address and the password you chose.

text: Posted December 20, 2012 With Norv possibly at OC, we can put Chud in his Ideal position again helping out with play calling and being a TE coach like he was with Turner before. Hell, he could actually be considered our AHC just to make it not seem like a demotion. Plus I think it gets us a cool opportunity for Chud to groom a Fauria type in the draft and be hands on with an athletic TE. It's his specialty. No...just so much no... And once again what is with everyone and fauria? He's 6'7, what else? Nothing, I watched him every Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
