Technical Abstract: 'Kamiakin' light red kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) (PI 578270) was developed by the USDA-ARS in cooperation with Washington State University. Kamiakin was jointly released in September 1986 by the USDA-ARS, Washington State University, and the University of Idaho. Kamiakin is an F11 selection from the parentage 'Royal Red'/'Redkote'. Kamiakin was tested extensively in Washington and Idaho as K83 and K279. In 1985 and 1986, it was tested in the interregional cooperative dry bean nursery at 17 to 18 locations in the USA and Canada. Kamiakin seed yields equaled or exceeded those of the best cultivars in most locations. Its seeds are uniform and similar in shape to 'California LRK'. It is unique among light red kidney (LRK) bean varieties in being resistant to the curly top virus and also carrying the dominant I gene for hypersensitive resistance to bean common mosaic virus. Like all other kidney-type bush cultivars, it is highly susceptible to fusarium root rot. Kamiakin has determinate, strong, upright, red kidney bush growth habit and matures in 90 to 100 days. It provides virus resistance needed in the Pacific Northwest, where curly top and mosaic are serious hazards to susceptible red kidney cultivars. Cooking tests indicated that it produces an acceptable canned product. Breeder and foundation seed of Kamiakin are maintained by the Washington State Crop Improvement Assoc., Inc., 114 N. 5th Ave., Yakima, WA 98902- 2642, and by the Idaho Crop Improvement Assoc., Inc., 1641 S. Curtis Rd., Boise, ID 83705. Publ. in Crop Sci. 35:944. 1995.

About Kentucky
Kentucky is known as "The Bluegrass State" because the grass—thanks to its limestone soil—actually does look blue-purple in early spring. It's a state blessed with an abundance of natural reserves, from lush forest parks to flowing streams and the longest cave system in the world—it's an adventurer's delight.
Find your base-camp vacation rental on FlipKey and let the adventure begin!
About Kentucky
A state in the south east of America with the Appalachian Mountain range on its eastern side and the huge Ohio River in the north, Kentucky is pretty much horse country. Lexington, one of its biggest cities, is known as "The Horse Capital of the World" and home to the 1200 acre long working farm, Kentucky Horse Park. There are also several horse museums.
Kentucky has another global claim to fame with Owensboro being called "The Barbecue Capital of the World", thanks to its annual International Bar-B-Q Festival every May. We'd definitely suggest going to sample some of the tasty local fare.
Thankfully, there are plenty of parks in which to burn off the BBQ calories. These include The Daniel Boone National Forest (named after the pioneer). Here outdoor enthusiasts can hike, boat, fish and camp to their hearts' content.
What to do in Kentucky
One thing you can't miss when in Kentucky is Mammoth Cave. At 340 miles long, it's the world's longest cave system and fascinating to explore, whatever age you happen to be. Guided tours are available but have to be booked in advance because they're so popular.
If you're near Louisville on the first Saturday in May then go to the famous Kentucky Derby. There's a whole museum devoted to this world-famous horse race and a fortnight's carnival to enjoy beforehand.
Try out a traditional Kentucky dish such as the Hot Brown (invented at the Brown Hotel in Louisville). More of a sandwich than a meal, it consists of a slice of toast layered with turkey, bacon and tomatoes then a drop of Mornay sauce.
You can also take a road trip along the bluegrass byways in pursuit of the eight distilleries on the Bourbon Trail. One of the first distilleries was in Knob Creek—where a young Abraham Lincoln just happened to grow up.
Top travel tips for Kentucky
Just in case you're tempted to crack a joke, there really was a colonel who came up with the idea for Kentucky Fried Chicken. His name was Harland Sanders and he sold it at his garage in North Corbin. But all over the state, there are amazing outlets for delicious fried chicken.
If you're planning to visit the distilleries on the Bourbon Trail, it's worth knowing that most close at 3pm. So set off early and pick a designated driver before you leave.
Spring and fall are the best times to visit Kentucky, especially if you're planning outdoor pursuits since the summers are hot (over 100F at times) and very humid.
Roads can be bad for driving in January and February when there's often lots of ice. So, make sure to time your trip right.
A large state with plenty to occupy your time, Kentucky is an ideal vacation destination whether you're after the outdoors, cowboy history, the food and drink or the general bonhomie of the residents there. It's proud of its Wild West past and, especially, those stunningly beautiful thoroughbred horses it breeds.

The former chief prosecutor of Centre County, Pa., tells the Associated Press that because one of Jerry Sandusky's adopted children is his brother-in-law, he referred to the Pennsylvania Attorney General a 2009 allegation that the former Penn State assistant coach had sexually abused a child.
Earlier, AP reported that a Pennsylvania lawyer says he has a client who intends to testify that he was sexually assaulted by Sandusky, who has been charged with abusing eight boys over 15 years.
Update at 5:23 p.m. ET: Former Centre County District Attorney Michael Madeira has told the Associated Press that he referred to the Pennsylvania Attorney General a 2009 allegation that former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky had sexually abused a child because one of Sandusky's adopted children was his brother-in-law.
At the time, the AG's office was headed by the current governor, Tom Corbett.
"I reviewed it and I made the decision it needed to be investigated further," Madeira, DA from 2005 to 2009, said in a phone interview. "But the apparent conflict of interest created an impediment for me to make those kinds of decisions."
Tuesday, he had declined to specify to AP his family connection to Sandusky. He declined to identify his brother-in-law by name.
He told AP today that he hasn't spoken to his brother-in-law in years and rarely spoke to Sandusky. His wife, Lisa, also was adopted, but by a different family.
Sandusky has six adopted children.
Update at 4:05 p.m. ET: A new judge has been assigned to handle the case, AP reports. The Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts said Robert Scott, a senior district judge in Westmoreland County, would take over the case after Centre County court officials sought an out-of-county jurist.
The case had been assigned to District Judge Leslie Dutchcot, who donated to The Second Mile in 2009. She set Sandusky's bail at $100,000, unsecured.
Original post: The Harrisburg attorney, Ben Andreozzi, said in a statement that other alleged assault victims are coming forward, the AP says. Andreozzi says Sandusky's assertions of innocence, made in a nationally televised interview Monday, have again victimized people and that Penn State hasn't reached out to accusers to offer counseling.
Sandusky admitted to NBC's Bob Costas only that he "horsed around" in the showers with young boys and sometimes put his hand on their leg while he was driving them places. He denied being sexually attracted to young boys and said he regrets taking showers with them.
The AP says efforts to get a comment from Sandusky's lawyer failed -- the answering machine at the State College office of Joe Amendola is full and isn't accepting messages.
A grand jury indictment charges Sandusky with 40 criminal counts involving eight victims. Two Penn State administrators face perjury charges, accused of lying to the grand jury. The case prompted the firing last week of head football coach Joe Paterno, school president Graham Spanier and a vice president, Gary Schultz.

vacuum pump oil in gage set lines
after evacuating a mini split system the gauge set lines seemed to be full of vacuum pump oil. On a r-410 system is this something that would be a system killer or just reduce the system efficiency a little if some vacuum pump oil got in the AC system? The pump has a check valve and to my knowledge was not unplugged. The electronic vacuum gauge was showing 140 microns when I closed things off. I did not notice the oil until I had opened the valves on the unit so I can not "check" the lines to see if there is oil. Choices are recover the charge, clean and start over or run it. I do not have the recovery tools or access to refrigerant so not an easy thing to be cautious. The system might be dry or it might have several ounces of vacuum pump oil in the lines.
If you had a vacuum in the lines and then opened the service valves the large pressure of the freon inside the condensor would fill your hoses and pressurize them and the oil in them. The only way it should/could get in the system is if you added some more freon to the lines as the flow would be into the system. Nothing you can do about it now as it may mix with the compressor oil. If it is too thick the capillary lines will plug and it won't cool properly so you should notice that.
did you lose the oil level in the pump itself :wink:if not it's no big deal
The vacuum was just on the lineset. So are you saying a little pump oil in the refrigeration loop might not hurt? My delima is that I don't see how it got tree in the first place so I have no idea the level of contamination if it exists.
As yuri said there's nothing you can do about it now short of replacing the compressor and flushing the rest of the system. Might as well wait and see what happens.
You did not introduce a positive pressure and vac pump oil into the system because the valves on your gauges were closed. The only way that oil could get into the system is if you hooked up a bottle of freon and added some to the system to compensate for the extra line set if the specs required it. That freon would take the vac pump oil with it into the system. You have no worries if you did not add freon.

We continue to check daily to see which candidates for state office have filed their 2009 campaign finance reports. Unless I've missed something, the first to show up on the Secretary of State's official web site are reports from three of the people running for … secretary of state!
They're state Rep. Thomas Deadrick, R-Platte; Deputy Secretary of State Teresa Bray; and state Sen. Jason Gant, R-Sioux Falls. All three are seeking the Republican nomination to succeed Secretary of State Chris Nelson. (He's term-limited and running for the Republican nomination for U.S. House of Representatives.)
Deadrick, Bray and Gant all filed their reports Jan. 27.
Deadrick reports raising $5,841 and spending $2,370 in 2009. His itemized receipts came from two people: himself for $691 and brother-in-law John Persinger for $5,000. He also reports receiving $150 in unitemized receipts.
Bray reports raising $6,445 including a $1,000 contribution from Nelson's campaign committee and spending $13. (That's not a misprint.) She also reports in-kind contributions valued at $17,696 for tee shirts, banners, printing, travel and other campaign expenses, which she paid for.
Gant reports raising $15,025 and spending $7,858. His campaign also owes $7,842 to him for money he's personally laid out. His revenue includes $5,883 he transferred from his Senate account.
Sen. Ben Nesselhuf of Vermillion, who's seeking the Democratic nomination for secretary of state, filed his report today. As of 11:30 a.m., it hadn't been posted yet today on the SOS web site (www.sdsos.gov).
Feb. 1 is the deadline to file.

RepairPal Blog
Last night, President-Elect Barack Obama shared more of his thoughts about the suffering US auto industry on CBS 60 Minutes. He talks about, "creating a bridge loan to somewhere as opposed to a bridge loan to nowhere" so that the money does not keep GM, Ford and Chrysler in business just for another 6 months. Obama also reasserted that he is still focused on energy independence. See the interview below:
The Green Car Journal recently named five finalists for their 2009 Green Car of the Year Award. The Award was created to reward environmental responsibility among automakers.The five finalists are:
California Governor Schwarzenegger has proposed increasing state sales tax 1.5% from 7.25% to 8.75% for 3 years to make up for the $11.2 billion budget shortfall. Included in the governor's proposal is levying sales taxes on auto repair services, which currently are not taxed. Up until this point, only auto parts have been taxed. Such efforts to tax auto repair services in Florida have met strong opposition and have failed. Schwarzenegger is now going to face a similar backlash. The governor says the increases are needed to stabilize the state budget.
David Leggett mentions today in his blog at just-auto.com that in the midst of the horrible economic turmoil and uncertainty facing General Motors, the company has opened an auto manufacturing facility outside of St. Petersburg in Russia. The plant opening ceremony was last week, and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev attended, so it was obviously a pretty big deal. Mr. Leggett makes the important point that despite the recent nasty rhetoric being flung between Russia and the United States, an American company has made a big investment in Russia, and Russia likes it.
According to the Associated Press, Dean Kamen, the inventor of the famed Segway scooter, has created the first hybrid electric car based upon the Stirling engine.The Stirling engine was first developed by Robert Stirling, a Scottish clergyman and inventor, in 1816. A Stirling engine uses external heat to drive the internal pistons – the heat is applied to the outside of the cylinder walls to power the engine.
Today President-Elect Barack Obama hosted his first press conference since being elected. He made the following comments about his plans for the US auto industry: "The news coming out of the auto industry this week reminds us of the hardship it faces -- hardship that goes far beyond individual auto companies to the countless suppliers, small businesses and communities throughout our nation who depend on a vibrant American auto industry. The auto industry is the backbone of American manufacturing and a critical part of our attempt to reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
It's all over the Internet this morning: General Motors had another astoundingly bad quarter and continues to hemorrhage cash. You can read about it in Autoblog or in the New York Times.
Need a little more oomph under the hood? General Motors has announced that the LS9 under the hood of the Corvette ZR1 will be available as a crate motor next fall. With 639 hp and just over 600 ft. lbs.of torque, this monster is ready to be dropped into a willing engine compartment! We won't be providing estimates anytime soon on the cost of installing an LS9 into your vehicle, but like they say, "If you have to ask..."
According to The New York Times, General Motors is putting the final touches on the next generation Presidential vehicle. Would President Obama, Michelle, Sasha, Malia and their new puppy enjoy traveling in this car? I'd like to propose they brand it "Obama" by turning it red, white and vibrant blue – carrying on with the theme and colors used during the campaign. They also need to add a roof rack for the girls' gear and an entertainment system to keep the kids satiated during long road trips. I also think that Obama would much prefer a fuel efficient vehicle, hopefully GM will consider using alternative energy to power this beast.
A Tesla Roadster, driven by Tesla's Director of Sales, was wrecked in a demonstration gone wrong. He took a turn at 100MPH on a wet road with low visibility and lost control. Remarkably, neither the driver nor the passenger (who was ejected from the car) were seriously injured. According to Wrecked Exotics, this is the 3rd accident involving the Tesla Roadster and none have resulted in serious injuries. Thankfully Tesla has built passive and active safety systems into the Roadster's Li-ion battery to prevent thermal runaway (aka explosion), unlike Sony batteries.


text: MALVERN, Pa., Dec. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: AUXL), a specialty biopharmaceutical company, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for filing and granted standard review status to its supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for XIAFLEX ® (collagenase clostridium histolyticum or CCH), a novel, in-office biologic therapy for the potential treatment of Peyronie's disease (PD). Under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), the FDA is expected to take action on the application by September 6, 2013. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20101202/MM10881LOGO ) XIAFLEX is currently approved in the U.S., EU, Canada and Switzerland for the treatment of adult Dupuytren's contracture patients with a palpable cord. XIAFLEX for the treatment of PD was granted orphan designation in the U.S. by the FDA in January 1996 and, if approved by the FDA, is expected to be the first and only biologic therapy indicated for the treatment of PD. "We are very pleased that XIAFLEX was accepted for review as we believe there is a significant unmet need for a safe and effective treatment with proven results for patients exhibiting the classic penile curvature deformity and patient-reported bother associated with Peyronie's disease," said Adrian Adams, Chief Executive Officer and President of Auxilium. "We look forward to working with the FDA as it reviews the application." The sBLA submission of XIAFLEX for the treatment of PD is based on data from the clinical studies known by the acronym IMPRESS – The I nvestigation for M aximal P eyronie's R eduction E fficacy and S afety S tudies – and other controlled and uncontrolled clinical studies, in which over 1,000 PD patients were enrolled and received over 7,400 injections of XIAFLEX. In the two identical phase III double-blind placebo-controlled IMPRESS studies, XIAFLEX demonstrated statistically significant improvement in the co-primary endpoints of penile curvature deformity and patient-reported bother versus placebo. In IMPRESS I at 52 weeks, the co-primary endpoints met statistical significance with a 37.6% mean reduction in penile curvature deformity for XIAFLEX subjects (p=0.0005) and a 3.3 point improvement in the Peyronie's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ) bother domain for XIAFLEX subjects (p=0.0451). In IMPRESS II at 52 weeks, the co-primary endpoints met statistical significance with a 30.5% mean improvement in penile curvature deformity for XIAFLEX subjects (p=0.0059) and a 2.4 point improvement in the PDQ bother domain for XIAFLEX subjects (p=0.0496). XIAFLEX was generally well-tolerated. The most common treatment related adverse events reported in the phase III studies were local to the treatment site and consistent with adverse events reported in previous PD trials with XIAFLEX, which included injection site hematoma, pain and swelling. Serious adverse events included corporal rupture (penile fracture) in 3 subjects in the placebo controlled studies. About Peyronie's DiseasePD is the development of collagen plaque, or scar tissue, on the shaft of the penis that may harden and reduce flexibility, causing the penis to deform in a bend or arc during erection. PD is commonly associated with significant disease bother, emotional distress, loss of self-esteem, and depression in addition to difficulty with sexual intercourse. PD is a heterogeneous disease with an initial inflammatory component. This inflammatory phase is poorly understood with a somewhat variable disease course and occasional spontaneous resolutions of not greater than 13% 1. After 12-18 months of disease, the disease is reported to often develop into a more chronic, stable phase 1. The estimated prevalence in adult men of PD has been reported to be approximately 5% 2; however the disease is thought to be underdiagnosed and undertreated 1. Based on U.S. historical medical claims data, it is estimated that between 65,000 and 120,000 PD patients are diagnosed every year, but only 5,000 to 6,500 PD patients are treated with injectables or surgery annually 3.

Ronaldo grabs hat-trick ahead of United tie
Cristiano Ronaldo warmed up in style for Wednesday's Champions League showdown with former club Manchester United by claiming a hat-trick and an assist as Real Madrid crushed Sevilla 4-1 in La Liga on Saturday night.
The Portuguese forward, who became the world's most expensive player when he joined Real from United in 2009, set up Karim Benzema to open the scoring from close range in the 18th minute.
Ronaldo doubled the home side's lead with a powerful left-foot strike eight minutes later and added his second in the 46th minute after a blunder in the Sevilla defence.
The 28-year-old completed his treble in the 59th minute when he started and finished a swift break to chalk up the 21st hat-trick of his career and his 17th in La Liga.
Ronaldo took his tally for the season to 24 league goals, 11 behind Lionel Messi of Barcelona.
"We have a phenomenon (in Ronaldo). I cannot recall anything like it," Real director and former club great Emilio Butragueno said.
Meanwhile, Messi notched up his 35th league goal of the season as Barcelona strolled to a crushing 6-1 home win against Getafe yesterday.
Alexis Sanchez and David Villa made the most of a rare place in the starting line-up with goals either side of Messi's strike and Andres Iniesta, Cristian Tello and Gerard Pique were also on the scoresheet as Barca moved on to 62 points.

Dear Heather,
I came home from my trip today and you were not here. I am so used to your presence in the house. Being a cat, you were not one to jump all over me, but just rub your head gently against my legs and headbonk against me. When I'd sit down, you'd come up for a cuddle. You warmed my lap. You took my desk chair and I had to move you, but you heated it for me too. I miss your little face waiting for dinner around this hour, impatient for the good stuff you got in the evening.
The hospital sent home your ashes and your paw prints in a plaque. I am so lucky to have this from you. I don't know how I am going to move on without you. You were such a presence yet so quiet and dignified that you just melded into what we did and where we went.
You sister dog Sienna is not the same, nor is your cat brother Foucault. They feel your loss as you were a friend to them. Beside your sister to cuddle, beside Foucault to chase or beg for food.
For so long we lived with you and each day I grew to love you even more. I will miss you so much.
love your mom
This is Heather's human mom, Aimee.
Last night I had a dream. All the animals I've ever loved were at this house and wonderful garden. My dogs from childhood were there, and Zuki and other dogs I've known and some I haven't. Even a sheep and I goat I think. Then I went into the house and opened the attic door. Out came all the cats. I thought "oh they really aren't gone, they were just stuck here in the attic" Out came Heather and Sami and some others. Then I started looking for Sienna and Ellie and thought I may have seen them but they never came up to me. Only the ones who had passed were there. Maybe it was a special trip to the rainbow bridge. It felt like such a special place and all the animals were in peace. What a pleasure to see it. Thank you Heather for showing me you are Ok and with you friends. You always loved other cats and dogs so much. At first more than people.
Heather died last night. Yesterday morning she was on the bathroom floor when my husband woke up. She was unable to move her back legs. He took her to the emergency vet. She had heart problems and a blood clot. The prognosis was not good. Three vets said that probably the best thing to do was put her to sleep. My husband saw her last night and after talking to the vet, wanted to give it a full 24 hours to see how she was doing. She seemed out of pain and loving the visit with him. In the night he got a call that her body temperature dropped and she died. Probably a blood clot in the brain.
This all happened so fast. We know she is now with her dog brother Zuki at the bridge and they were buddies. Life will not be the same without her. She loved being on my lap, getting pets and combs, giving headbonks, cuddling with Sienna, chasing with Foucault, licking catnip, and sleeping right by my pillow. We are grateful she did not have a prolonged illness. She had a good life during the time she was with us. We appreciate all the time we had with her. She taught many people to not give up on feral cats, they can come around and can learn to love people instead of fear them.
Goodbye Heather, we will miss you. Please give Zuki a kiss for me.

Brush Fire Near Apartment Buildings
Published June 16th, 2013
Loading Video...
Closer to home, in Gainesville, an unexpected brush fire occurred this evening around 6 o'clock on 37th Boulevard.
The wooded area was near apartment complexs and several restaurants.
Fire rescue arrived at the scene and reported flames to be around two feet tall and 35 feet in diameter.
"We used a brush truck and buster hose just so we could get access to the fire. It was in the woods and we just pulled the lines in there to put it out," said Lieutenant Eddie Sapp of Alachua County Fire Rescue.
The cause of the fire is still undetermined and no one was hurt.

Lord of Scoundrels, The Male Perspective
Wouldn't it be great if there were more men who admitted they read romance novels? And wouldn't it be even better if they reviewed romance in general? If only there were more blogs or review sites where men reviewed romance! Luckily for us, I may just have your answer. Last fall, my friend Ryan I were talking about books. Ryan loves to read as I do and he knows of my love for romance books in general. I told him of All About Romance's Top 100 Romances of All Time poll. He was really interesting in how this poll came about and which books were considered the best of the best in romance. He was especially interested in the number one book, Lord of Scoundrels by Loretta Chase. He wanted to read Lord of Scoundrels right the and there. I was practically jumping up and down because to have a man read such a wonderful novel was something I have wanted for such a very long time. I even went one step further and asked Ryan if he would review Lord of Scoundrels, and he said yes!
It took some time for Ryan to read Lord of Scoundrels and write down his thoughts because Ryan was transplanted from
Lord of Scoundrels–as reviewed by Ryan Louis (newcomer to the Romance world, for sure)
Back in college I wrote a speech entitled "Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover." In it, I strike down the myth that romance novels are flippant reads. In fact, I argue that their quality of substance rivals that of any other style of fiction. My arguments were three-fold: romance novels are good, healthy forms of escape, they often present provocative arguments to the readers (issues of gender and feminine empowerment, particularly) and third, they should be taught in schools. My premise: kids today would much prefer learning parts of speech from a romance novel than from other, boring examples. So, for instance, teach adjectives as "Her eyes were wide and black and achingly alive"—the underlined words being wonderful examples of descriptive imagery. To learn an imperative statement, one need only turn to this phrase: "If you don't stop that right now, I will have to throw you to the ground and ravish you." It would go on like this until the entire lesson is fraught with anxieties. As kids who've only just discovered their hormonal antipodes, these books would speak to an animal instinct just craving release.
Certainly more, in any case, than your typical example: "Nouns: A boring stick fell from a stupid tree."
Obviously romance novels are not for everyone…and I certainly wouldn't recommend teaching whole romance novels to children. Much of the literature would fail any appropriateness litmus test. My point in the venture was to start a dialogue about romance novels—in an academic sense. I used one book at length to fix my point: Dangerous Men and Adventurous Women: Romance Writers on the Appeal of the Romance; edited by romance provocateur, Jayne Ann Krentz. The book's still in print, if you're interested.
Thus, my interest in romance is largely scholarly. At one point during my college career I read Lisa Kleypas' stunningly dirty book Suddenly You and that, as they say, was that. I understood that sex could be had in a raspberry field but would be likely never to partake.
Until this year, I hadn't really considered reading another. After all, being a gay man, there isn't much directly appealing to me about 'ladies that doth protest too much.' When All About Romance held their top 100 romances of all time poll for readers, however, I immediately became enamored with curiosity. This book ranked higher than Austen and Bronte, for cry-eye! Growing up as a lit-lover, I seriously took up arms in defense of the Canon when I read the top entry. But, then again, I have a wild side. I thought to myself "let's throw caution to the wind and read the damn thing!"
Enter Loretta Chase's Lord of Scoundrels.
As an aside, I'll need to remind myself to ask katiebabs where certain stock phrases originate. Have "member" and "rod" always been the delightful euphemisms I've come to cherish? Is there always a "no no no" before the eventual "yes?"
The story, if retold in simple sentences, is not exactly complex. The novel creates a series of events for the two central characters (Jess and Lord Dain) to change just enough for their love & lust to become complementary rather than oppositional. Not a simple challenge considering they are, in essence, two ends of the same stick (is "stick" another good euphemism for a peter?). The dark, debauching world of Lord Dain counteracts the servile and spinsterly world of Jessica Trent.
Slowly. Surely. We head closer and closer to our inevitable end: marriage, pregnancy. The journey, though, is the appealing part. And, from my research into the world of romance novels, the journey is everything to a loyal romance reader. How will it happen? How will Lord Dain be tamed? How will Jessica understand that her longing is legitimate? How can Jessica quell her feelings of shame? And can Lord Dain, please, feel a little more shame? Please?
The novel takes us through the streets of
Paris, through the countryside of , through the geography of a woman's anatomy. Seriously, I learned a lot—not because I'm completely clueless as a gay man, but because a woman writing about a woman allows me to attach meanings that I would rarely impart myself to a gender I rarely consider sexually. Chase attaches such vivid metaphors and adjectives to Jessica's many (did I say "many?" I meant MANY) orgasms. I really did stir—something about complete and uninhibited passion that bridges worlds together. Here hetero met homo in a blitzkrieg of emotional rampage.
I wonder if the world could be bridged by romance novels. Peace, after all, starts with a little bit of love. Or, in this case, the right finger in the right orifice.
Around the end of the novel, though, I was surprised by the bastard-son subplot. Surprise quickly gave to real awe. The ethics debate hit me hard—especially after having been forced into an inordinate amount of political ethics debates. Loretta Chase took me away from the droll world of contemporary politics by a simple story about doing what is right. It seemed refreshing. It also seemed somehow vindicating.
If you're adding up positives and negatives for my review, don't bother. I'm fairly split. But, in the end, I stand by my belief that romance writing and, by extension, romance reading is a vastly important form of expression. I used to work at Borders, I also have a friend whose mother writes romance novels, so I've seen my fair share of romance readers justifying their hobby to non-believers—imploring that they understand it's more than just the sex. Ladies and gentleman, as a former nonbeliever, I'll add my voice to the debate: sure it's about the sex. But it's also about so much more.
There's a little bit of power when you take both sides.


text: ATLANTA, Feb. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The U.S. Small Business Administration is reminding small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives, small businesses engaged in aquaculture and most private non-profit organizations of all sizes that March 12 is the filing deadline for federal economic injury disaster loans available in South Carolina as a result of the drought that began on January 1, 2012. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110909/DC65875LOGO) The SBA's disaster declaration includes the following counties: Abbeville, Aiken, Allendale, Anderson, Bamberg, Barnwell, Beaufort, Berkeley, Calhoun, Charleston, Cherokee, Chester, Chesterfield, Clarendon, Colleton, Darlington, Dillon, Dorchester, Edgefield, Fairfield, Florence, Georgetown, Greenville, Greenwood, Hampton, Horry, Jasper, Kershaw, Lancaster, Laurens, Lee, Lexington, Marion, McCormick, Newberry, Oconee, Orangeburg, Pickens, Richland, Saluda, Spartanburg, Sumter, Union, Williamsburg and York in South Carolina. "When the Secretary of Agriculture issues a disaster declaration to help farmers recover from damages and losses to crops, the Small Business Administration issues a declaration to eligible entities affected by the same disaster," said Frank Skaggs, director of SBA's Field Operations Center East in Atlanta. Under this declaration, the SBA's Economic Injury Disaster Loan program is available to eligible farm-related and nonfarm-related entities that suffered financial losses as a direct result of this disaster. With the exception of aquaculture enterprises, SBA cannot provide disaster loans to agricultural producers, farmers, or ranchers. Nurseries are eligible to apply for economic injury disaster loans for losses caused by drought conditions.

My 2008 V is AWD. The rear tire wear is much faster than the front. The rear passenger tire won't even last 12,000 miles. Does anyone know if there is an issue with alignment on this model??
My 2008 V is AWD. The rear tire wear is much faster than the front. The rear passenger tire won't even last 12,000 miles. Does anyone know if there is an issue with alignment on this model??
Is it wearing evenly? What make is the tire? Is it same make as in the front?
they are bridgestone. The originals didn't last 15,000 because I didn't rotate. But, the passenger rear tire was worn to a dangerous point. The other rear tire was very worn. And, the two in the front were just fine and would have kept running for several more miles. Honda only adjusted the cost of the tires, not the alignment. So, I had it aligned - but the passenger rear tire is wearing again very fast - visibly more in just 8000 miles. Any thoughts??
For that affected tire does it wear evenly? If so, double check if the tire is not dragging. I suspect that it is dragging. After the car has been driven feel if the brakes is hot. Was anything done before this happened?
There was a post here that indicated a fix for the tire wear, just by loosening the suspension mounting bolts then re-tightening? SEARCH for "Tire Cupping"

i've noticed that one of my rear tyres is wearing unevenly (greater wear on the outside).
I had assumed it needs re-alignment. It has not happened before som maybe I bumped it - unusual for real whels
What does "dragging" mean?
I had the same problem on my 2009 CRV. Rear tires on mine were going to need to be replaced by 15,000 - 20,000. I'm a good driver - I can usually get 50,000 + out of tires even crappy ones. I took it to the dealer, and they said there was nothing wrong even though fronts were like 7/12,7/12 and backs were 6/12, 5/12! Dealership assured me no problem, lets see what it looks like next oil change.
Took it back 3000-5000 miles later - 6/12, 6/12 front 5/12, 2/12!?! Needless to say I was furious. Dealer then told me I needed to have tires replaced on rear axle because you can't have it uneven!!! WTF. I was was very angry since I asked them to figure it out before because it was wearing unevenly.
...After much arguing (they kept saying it was my driving), complaining, and calling corporate (who does nothing btw). I got the dealership to align my tires correctly - and buy me one tire. I replaced one myself because it made sense to me at the time.
In my experience - my tires were wearing TOO fast because they were TOTALLY misaligned. I had one tire off by almost 0.5 degree! For reference, your car is considered out of alignment at +/- 0.04 degrees.
Now, doing fine, even my crappy worn rear tires have only worn about 1/12 in the last 25,000 miles! I'm about 8/12, 8/12 front and 5/12, 5/12 rears at ~ 40,000.

In order to upload your newly-created gallery to your web space, you'll need some information which should be provided by your ISP. You may need to do some hunting around on their website, but somewhere you should be able to find instructions for uploading via FTP. You need a "host name" or "server name", which will usually look something like "ftp.yourispname.co.uk". You also need a username and password, which may be the same as the username and password that you use to connect to your email service, or may have been assigned to you or chosen by you when you signed up for the free webspace with your ISP. If you really can't find this information, you may need to make a call to your ISP's technical help line.
Once you have the host name, username and password, start up your FTP Client program. You need to enter the login details to make a new connection. If you're using AceFTP, click on the File menu and select Connect. In the window that appears, double-click on New Site Profile. In the dialogue that appears, enter the Server (host name), User ID (username) and password, and give your connection a name, preferably the name of your site. Leave all the other settings in their default state. Click Next to go on to the following page, which will ask you to name local and host folders. You don't need to enter anything here, just click Finish to complete the dialogue and you should see the new connection appear in the connection window.
Double-click on your new connection to link directly to the server where you will upload your site. You'll see some information scroll past in the top window, a tone will alert you that the connection has been made, and aboive the right-hand window you should see a folder called "htdocs". This is the folder on the remote server where your website will live. There may already be a sub-folder in the htdocs folder; if there is just ignore it.
In the left-hand window, navigate to the folder where you had Picasa export your gallery files. You should be able to see a folder named "Images", another called "Thumbnails" and a file called "Index", as well as a lot of other files. You need to copy all of these files into the htdocs folder on the server, so highlight all the files and folders by clicking on one and them pressing CTRL + A, and then click on the button between the two windows with the left-to-right arrow. Your file transfer will begin, and depending on the amount of files and the speed of your connection it may take several minutes to complete. AceFTP will make a noise when it's done.
And there you are, you've successfully published your first website, and it didn't hurt a bit. To see it live, open your web browser (you're looking at it right now) and go to the URL of your web space as provided by your ISP. It's probably something like www.yourusername.yourispname.co.uk. Here's one I made earlier: Dunkeswell Air Show gallery. It's very basic at the moment, but you can start off with something like this and then experiment. You can delete and change files on the server and move files from your PC to your htdocs folder as often as you like, so feel free to play with it. As long as you keep a backup of your site on your home PC, if you break something you can always delete it all and upload it again.
There are a number of other programs available that provide easy ways to make good-looking websites, and they all produce the same type of files that can be uploaded to your htdocs folder for viewing on the internet. If you want to take things even further, it doesn't cost much to buy your own domain name from a domain registry company such as UKReg, and you can buy a web hosting package for just a few pounds a month that will give you far more storage space for bigger galleries, plus other features such as personalised email addresses and password protection for private files. Just don't go starting any technology review sites, ok?

OUR VIEW: ArtPrize sprinkled with local flavor
ArtPrize is here! Today it all begins … now until 6 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 7.
It's downtown and throughout Grand Rapids in over 160 venues, and it's a ball for all.
If you haven't yet experienced ArtPrize, do yourself a big favor and get there. It's a spectacular piece of West Michigan lifestyle and we are all lucky to be living nearby such an event. More than 1,500 entries representing 56 countries, including more than a dozen local participants will be competing in categories for over $500,000 in total prize money.
Art in the historic sense is often viewed as more conservative in comparison to, for example, some of the astounding creations you will see at ArtPrize in Grand Rapids. That is not to say you won't find classics in the mix. Add to that the popularity (and concept) of ArtPrize that is making us all more appreciative of the efforts of artists and artisans.
If you think "art" is stuffy, wait till you see the scene and stuff in and around ArtPrize; it's free, it's fun, and it will give you a view of how exciting human imagination and inventiveness can be.
If you are not concerned about the dwindling financial support for art education in our schools, you really need an inoculation of the kind of creativity you can find every day in the streets of Grand Rapids. We'd like to think people will be moved to help local schools introduce more young people to the possibilities in creative careers and hobbies.
Extravaganzas like this are often expensive. ArtPrize is not; there are no ticket prices and as for hours; well, hours are supposed to be 5 to 8 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, noon to 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, noon to 6 p.m. Sundays; with some venues sporting longer hours. But the party does end Oct. 7. Don't miss the chance to wander GR at your leisure and experience something very special creations, one or more of which we guarantee you'll be talking about for a long time.
Be sure to pick up a guide to the exhibits, it'll help you plan your time, and help assure you'll have time to see what you want. And try to visit the presentations of our local area exhibitors: Ken Crouse, Carson City, Sculpture: "Father, Son, Spirit" at First Congregational Church, 10 E.

Here in Michigan
I am glad I found this site. I am in Michigan and grew up in a home with GSD. I have since been married and have a family and we have decided it's time to get a dog. Well, once in love with a German Shepherd always in love with a GSD. We are planning on getting one later on this yr as we have our own baby due early summer. I am researching breeders, training etc until then. Blessings
:welcome: Hopefully you'll find the perfect match soon :) There's tons of information on here on all aspects of the breed

The "Leo" of this poem is the legendary Black longshore union activist Leo Robinson, who died this past January. "The deep, dark chocolate brown, booming / Baritone brother sportin' black, Lenin-like / Greek Fisherman's cap / comin' Coltranish…
A Lil' Bit 'Bout Leo's Legacy…
by Raymond Nat Turner
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
Crescendo chants arising from
Python-like picket lines, slowly
Circling shadows of South African
Pirate ship, Nedlloyd-Kimberly—
Leper loaded with loot off pearls of
Sweat, vampire apartheid violently
Sucked from Black African hides…
Eleven days sitting, quarantined, its
Booty untouched by Longshoremen's
Mighty hands, or huge white horses—
I, like Reagan, "do not recall," who
Called the picket, who organized the
Action, I remember one speaker only:
The deep, dark chocolate brown, booming
Baritone brother sportin' black, Lenin-like,
Greek Fisherman's cap, comin' Coltranish,
Connecting dots, incendiary sharps and flats,
Mesmerizing, clarifying, Frederick Douglass,
Agitator tongues; no halting hemming and hawing,
Bureaucratic, clap-trap; just good old-fashioned
Gut-bucket Blues; no toned-down, detente trade
Unionism; just cut to the chase, cornbread and
Collard greens, proletarian prose; no milquetoast
Mumbo-jumbo; just straight-ahead, swinging
Soapbox, standing on shoulders of 1934 strikers—
Bloody Thursday Martyrs—whose crimson silhouettes
Still streak sidewalks of gentrified San Francisco…
The deep, dark chocolate brown, booming
Baritone brother sportin' black, Lenin-like,
Greek Fisherman's cap, comin' Coltranish—
Natural notes eloquently crossing Black
Baptist preacher, Harry Bridges, Ella Baker,
Geraldine Johnson mojo with Mars-sized,
Working-class coat of arms he wore proudly
Like a big fire engine red badge of honor…
I do recall how right speech, right on speech of
The deep, dark chocolate brown, booming
Baritone brother sportin' black, Lenin-like,
Greek Fisherman's cap, comin' Coltranish,
Stoked my gut and left me standing thirteen
Inches taller as a Black man, working-class
Man, daydreaming of meeting and be mentored
By this Black militant workingman and learning
About labor at his feet, as he surely learned as a
Young, second generation, Longshoreman…
Acting out my dream, I bought a Greek Fisherman's cap—
It had to be the cap— the history, the analysis in the cap?
I imagined I looked like him, sounded like him and walked
Through my work a day world like he walked through the
Reagan '80s, apartheid years of "constructive engagement,"
Capitalist offensive crushing communist and workers movements
Never would I dare dream mentorship dreams
Would come flying standby, two decades later…
Retired Longshoreman, Leo Robinson—as retired
As Big Ben, or Old Faithful— eased his big white
Diesel pickup below the legendary marquee of
Oakland's old Grand Lake Theater, right on
Time from his refuge in Raymond at the side
Of Ms Johnnie, his soul mate of many moons…
A fresh, young, historic thing calling itself the
Million Workers March, hurtled in to Leo's orbit
Like Halley's Comet, coming every seventy-six
Years, and firing up the ol' working-class warrior
Like a potbelly stove in a Wisconsin winter …
This fresh, young, historic thing calling itself
The Million Workers March came spreading
Demands as contagious and timely as the flu:
"Slash the military budget"
"National living wage"
"Hands off Social Security"
"Stop Dismantling Public Education"
Demands the Dems, the tops, TUBs, AKA
Trade Union Bureaucrats, were dodging like
Dracula dodges crosses, and iron stakes, dodging
Using their same old songs, "Please, Please, No
October Surprise!" and "It's The Right Thing,
But The Wrong Time, Brothers & Sisters…"
Sweetened with strings for dumping rank-and-file
dollars down dark Democratic Party holes of imperialist
Politician Kerry's In exchange for February 30th promises, promises...
Instead of taking the T-shirts sage advice and begin:
Mobilizing in our own name
The Million Worker March
The Lincoln Memorial October 17 2004
This fresh, young, historic thing calling itself the
Million Workers March came with demands on the
The Retiree formerly known as Leo Robinson: time,
Like meeting more than four corners, 400 North Point,
Money: the Retiree put up $50,000 of his own
To take the rank and file's demands to D.C.
Demands on the Retiree's third eye envisioning
Brown, beige, tan and ivory hands gripping one
Another's wrists in unity, morphing into a militant,
Moving circle understood by even Kindergartners—
Leo's logo on navy blue and ash grey T-shirts
Leo laughed at my crazy calls, punctuated by
Embellishments on my joke that Colin Powell,
Or Condi Rice, had contacted me asking that I
Ask Leo to call off the Million Workers March,
And Under-Secretary of Labor in Liberia would
Be Leo's—post-election!
Crunch, crunch, crunch of my driveway's gravel
Beneath the pickup's tires signaled the end of our
Weekly jam session conversation during our ride
From Million Workers March meetings— return tray
Tables to their locked position, seat backs to upright
Positions —prepare to jam for another hour, or more…
Leo's interests, like U.S. imperialism, spanned the globe,
Breadth of knowledge, youthful curiosity and that wise
Warrior twinkle in his eye when workers were getting it
On good somewhere, separated him from lords of capital,
Separated him from many rank and file revolutionaries
His grit and guts made him different
With his same wise warrior twinkle, seven years later,
He welcomed Occupy as the "new kid on the block"
Recognizing its short-lived two months puts us all
Two months closer to "…the final conflict…"
We've known Leo for a long, long time, those who know, know
Longer than any of us recall, Leo's lives earlier were spent
Working on railroads spiriting enslaved Africans to freedom
He was one who kept Nat's secret those 1831 Virginia nights,
He helped at Harper's Ferry under Captain Brown's command
Grieving, mourning, maybe we can bring ourselves to beg
Our evil enemy, Monsanto, to clone a hundred thousand
Leo Robinson leaders and ship them to every port, dock
Waterfront in the U.S.;
Splice his genes with Egyptian canal workers, Nigerian, Iraqi and
Venezuelan oil workers, Joe Hill and Mother Jones; and dust Leo's
DNA in every working-class baby bottle in the U.S?
Monsanto's Mengele-Frankenstein shit won't be necessary—
For Leo lives whenever, wherever some worker risks his
Or her life to pull one of their brothers or sisters to safety,
Leo lives in every navy blue or ash T-shirt with brown, beige,
Tan, ivory, hands circled in solidarity,
In every fiery speech during San Francisco strikes and
Port Of Oakland shutdown, in fights for health care, cradle
To grave, in housing, library, post office and school struggles
He lives good fights against fracking and the Occupy Movement…
Leo lives wherever rank and file working-class folks
Dig deep in shallow pockets to weaponize their wallets
Leo lives wherever the "voiceless" are booming in
Concrete stratagems in the currency of courage and clarity
Leo lives in London marches against war on Iran
In Greek anti-austerity marches
Wherever the ranks are rising up against top-down
Corporate unionism, rising 'gainst lil' buddies, Jr.
Partners who golf and vacation with the bosses,
Leo's Shreveport sound is embedded in the bathrooms,
Woodwork and hallways of the hiring hall he's haunted
Since '63— you've been warned…
Leo lives with Palestinian children resisting
Apartheid captors, when their jobs should be day-
Dreaming with dolls and chasing down soccer balls,
Leo lives in the Boycott Divestment and Sanction movement
He lives, for there are other leper ships to be left unloaded…
Other fiery, militant speeches to be made,
Other younger men and women to mentor…
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"
" Hey-hey, ho-ho—apartheid has got to go!"

I have an '11 Vagon and am looking for a couple of recommendations. One, I would like to know what Cadillac dealer(s) in the DC area has a service department that you find very reputable, does consistently good quality work, and is reasonably priced. Two, how about tuners in the DC area? I'm not quite ready to get modifications done yet, just perhaps an exhaust and intakes. Thanks.

Gianduia is being touted as Apple's (AAPL) replacement for Flash. When you consider that Flash is an application abstraction layer beneath which you can run games and videos, with a user interface and some GUI controls over the top, then perhaps it is. But it's also quite a bit more.
In actual fact Apple's 'Gianduia' has been around for quite some time. It was introduced last year at the little known WOWODC (World of WebObjects Developer Conference), which is an independent conference organised close to, and at the same time as Apple's own WWDC (World Wide Developers Conference). Last year Apple gave a closed demo of Gianduia to select developers at WOWODC, and most were impressed.
Apple Retail has also been using Gianduia to create web based app clients, which plug into its own WebObjects based services, for some time. This includes Apple's One-to-One program, iPhone reservation system, and its Concierge service for Genius Bar reservations and Personal Shopping programs.
Gianduia, which takes its name from a kind of Italian hazelnut chocolate, is effectively a browser based version of Cocoa (also a chocolate derived name). Cocoa, as you most likely know, is Apple's own Objective-C based OS X development layer. It's what makes your Mac, or your iPad tick and interact with you. And there you can see how the two are related.
So imagine a lot of OS X, or iPhone / iPad style interfaces in your web browser and you basically have it.
Apple has already been using similar frameworks in their own internet applications: SproutCore is used by the MobileMe team, TuneKit is used by iTunes, Gianduia is used by Apple Retail, Coherent is used by Dashcode 3, PastryKit is used by the iPhone, and AdLib is used by the iPad. But at the moment it's all a bit fragmented. Perhaps Gianduia will gradually replace all of these.
You can see a browser based version of AdLib running on an iPad style browser here.
With the increase in power of browsers it's fairly easy for many of these frameworks to produce Flash like visualisations. Most of these are based on the HTML5 Canvas. And that is what people are currently getting excited about and debating where Gianduia is concerned. But the two are actually quite separate technologies. HTML5 is nothing to do with Gianduia, other than the fact that Gianduia can use it.
Check out this demo for an idea of a simple example of the kind of things we are going to see with HTML5 Canvas.
Notice that you can interact with all of the various sides of the cube, and the text contained therein. You can even cut and paste text. Cool eh!
Where Gianduia may become relevant in the future is perhaps with Apple's own advertising efforts with iAd, and perhaps as a replacement for Flash on the iPhone / iPod Touch, and the iPad – and even perhaps in OS X. By replacement I actually mean, fill the gap that Flash has supposedly created by not being allowed on Apple's mobile platforms.
With the power of HTML5 canvas wrapped in a Cocoa / Cocoa Touch style interface in Safari or Mobile Safari, you have a very cohesive look to both web apps and also desktop apps. Which can be used to make adverts interactive, and also bridge the gap between computer desktop / touch interface and "Cloud" based aps.
Let us know your thoughts about Gianduia in the comments.

My husband and I came in to shop this evening. Long story short, assistant manager Sarah chased us outside accusing us of stealing and ordered an employee to strip search my husband or we weren't leaving. My husband was patted down in his boxers, they even lifted his testacles. THEY, not him. I have never been treated so poorly or been so embarrassed in my life. Awful customer service.

well dunno what to think of this one
this might need to be moved to politics .... if so feel free
The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April ('08) that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report (hadn't been updated since '95) on how much oil was in this area of the western 2/3 of North Dakota ; westernSouth Dakota ; and extreme easternMontana ..... check THIS out:
The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska 's Prudhoe Bay , and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels.. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel, we're looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.
'When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea.' says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's financial analyst.
'This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years.' reports, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It's a formation known as theWilliston Basin , but is more commonly referred to as the 'Bakken.' And it stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada . For years, U. S.oil exploration has been considered a dead end. Even the 'Big Oil' companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago. However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves.... and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL!
That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 41 years straight.
2. And if THAT didn't throw you on the floor, then this next one should - because it's from TWO YEARS AGO!
U. S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World!
Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006
Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of theRocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in the world. It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005President Bush mandated its extraction. In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this motherload of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?
They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:
- 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
- 18-times as much oil as Iraq
- 21-times as much oil as Kuwait
- 22-times as much oil as Iran
- 500-times as much oil as Yemen
- and it's all right here in the Western United States ..
HOW can this BE? HOW can we NOT BE extracting this? Because the environmentalists and others have blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil! Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy.....WHY?
James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION barrels untapped. That's more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post.
Don't think 'OPEC' will drop its price - even with this find? Think again! It's all about the competitive marketplace, - it has to. Think OPEC just might be funding the environmentalists?
Got your attention/ire up yet? Hope so! Now, while you're thinking about it ...... and hopefully P.O'd, do this:
3.. Pass this along. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you want to complain about gas prices .. because by doing NOTHING, you've forfeited your right to complain.
Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to every one in your address book.
By the way...this is all true.. Check it out at the link below!!!
GOOGLE it or follow this link. It will blow your mind..

Part of the snopes write up, for those to lazy to go read it.
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) released its assessment of undiscovered oil resources in the Bakken formation in April 2008, and although it reported a 25-fold increase in the amount of oil that could be recovered from that area compared to its 1995 estimate, the 2008 USGS estimate was still far short of the 503 billion barrel volume cited above:
North Dakota and Montana have an estimated 3.0 to 4.3 billion barrels of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil in an area known as the Bakken Formation.
A U.S. Geological Survey assessment, released April 10, shows a 25-fold increase in the amount of oil that can be recovered compared to the agency's 1995 estimate of 151 million barrels of oil.
New geologic models applied to the Bakken Formation, advances in drilling and production technologies, and recent oil discoveries have resulted in these substantially larger technically recoverable oil volumes. About 105 million barrels of oil were produced from the Bakken Formation by the end of 2007.
The USGS estimate of 3.0 to 4.3 billion barrels of technically recoverable oil has a mean value of 3.65 billion barrels. Scientists conducted detailed studies in stratigraphy and structural geology and the modeling of petroleum geochemistry. They also combined their findings with historical exploration and production analyses to determine the undiscovered, technically recoverable oil estimates.
Certainly 3.65 billion barrels of recoverable oil is nothing to sneeze at, but a little perspective is in order. The U.S. currently imports an average of about 10 million barrels of oil per day (for a total of about 3.65 billion barrels of oil per year), so even if all the estimated undiscovered oil in the Bakken formation were extracted today, it would only be enough to wean the U.S. off of crude oil imports for one year. That's still a good thing, but it's not nearly "enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 41 years straight" as claimed above.

One of the things that Alan Pardew revealed in his interviews today to the local press, is that he hasn't spoken to Mike Ashley, the Newcastle owner, for over three weeks, and while that's not surprising, it does suggest that the manager has no idea what Mike Ashley is thinking about this current bad spell.
Happier times between Pardew and Ashley?
But Alan Pardew is simply getting on with his job, and he said that's what Ashley would expect:
"That's what he expects me to do. He doesn't want me to ring him and say, 'Mike, I'm a little bit perturbed'. He wouldn't see any sign of strength in that and I wouldn't do that."
"He hasn't offered me any reassuring words and I wouldn't expect him to."
But that last line we think is important, and it could still depend on how we fare in the last two games that will decide whether Alan keeps his job,
Walking out of St. James' Park after 69 minutes is not consistent with helping Newcastle getting the win – that's for sure.
And confidence is not high that we can win the game at home tomorrow in any case, against the bottom of the league side, and 55% think we'll lose the game in our current poll.
Pardew could even mention that percentage to the players before the game – it may even inspire them to fight like hell – and try to get a win.
And that's when we score more goals than the opposition – I looked it up – just to make sure. 😀
And it's been a long time since we last won by scoring the stoppage time winner at home to Crystal Palace on March 22nd.
It's been a long time, and in the last 19 games we have played 13 games in which we couldn't have won the game – because we didn't score a goal.
It's been a bad run alright.
Comments welcome.

Special Order
Carbondale, Illinois. 1958. For widowed Tessie Lockhart, booking two seats on a passenger train to Florida symbolizes a fresh start, far from her memories of love and loss. For Tessie's teenage daughter Dinah, who misses her father terribly, the move to Gainesville means a new school and the painful ordeal of making new friends. Rich, popular Crystal Landy is one of the first girls Dinah meets--and it will be Crystal, along with her exquisite mother, Victoria, who will transform the Lockharts' lives in ways they never could have imagined. For as war and change come to this small southern town, the bonds between mothers and daughters will be tested, friendships sealed, secrets revealed, and relationships forever altered by the turbulence of the coming decades. Wise, moving, and warmly funny, The Orange Blossom Special, spans twenty years in the lives of an unforgettable cast of characters. Betsy Carter has crafted a powerful, richly rewarding novel about growing up, moving on, and turning strangers into friends.

Last-minute plan: Catch Screaming Females on The Chris Gethard Show tonight
Two of Jersey's finest team up for Gethard's hilarious live comedy show.

Allow us to rant for a moment: One of our favorite records of 2012 was Ugly, by New Jersey punks Screaming Females, and yet it got very little recognition on the many (many, many) year-end best-of lists that circulated in December. (Even TONY's music critics neglected the album in their best of 2012 lists. Boo.) So we implore you: If you're not familiar with the Steve Albini–produced album, which came out in April, give it a listen; it's more melodic than the band's past efforts, while retaining the explosive, ferocious quality that makes them so great. (We daresay that singer-guitarist Marissa Paternoster is one of most interesting singers or guitarists out there right now.)
All of this is to say that you should really check out tonight's installment of The Chris Gethard Show, which will feature a performance by Screaming Females. Fellow Jerseyite Gethard's quasi–talk show, which also airs on Manhattan public-access TV and streams on the show's website, is bizarre, heartfelt and wonderfully weird; we guarantee you won't have another night like this anywhere else. To attend the taping, e-mail email@example.com">email@example.com (it's first-come, first-served).
