|TITLE: The fugitive's song.
MEDIUM: 1 print : lithograph on wove paper ; 35.6 x 23.8 cm. (sheet). CREATED/PUBLISHED: Boston : Published by Henry Prentiss, 1845.
Boston. Published by Henry Prentiss, 33 Court St.
Lith. of E.W. Bouve Boston.
SUMMARY: "A sheet music cover illustrated with a portrait of prominent black abolitionist Frederick Douglass as a runaway slave. Douglass flees barefoot from two mounted pursuers who appear across the river behind him with their pack of dogs. Ahead, to the right, a signpost points toward New England. The cover's text states that "The Fugitive's Song" was "composed and respectfully dedicated, in token of confident esteem to Frederick Douglass. A graduate from the peculiar institution. For his fearless advocacy, signal ability and wonderful success in behalf of his brothers in bonds. (and to the fugitives from slavery in the) free states & Canadas by their friend Jesse Hutchinson Junr." As the illustration suggests, Douglass himself had escaped from slavery, fleeing in 1838 from Maryland to Massachusetts. He achieved considerable renown for his autobiography "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass," first published in 1845. The Library's copy of "The Fugitive's Song" was deposited for copyright on July 23, 1845. An earlier abolitionist song composed by Hutchinson, "Get Off the Track!" (no. 1844-14), also used a cover illustration to amplify its message."--Library of Congress catalogREPOSITORY: Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division, Washington, D.C. 20540 USA

This past July, mostly nude performers in body paint spent five hours moving around China Art Objects Gallery as part of a performance by L.A. artist Emily Mast. They were posing with one another, one performer slowly squeezing another's face, or wandering around a set that included triangles of tape on the floor and a red rectangle on the wall. All the moves and gestures in this performance, called Index, came from Mast's previous performances. These gestures had interested her and she wanted to try them again in a different context. This tendency to revisit and revise her art, which often involves actors or dancers and occurs in front of a live audience, makes Mast's process especially interesting to follow. An artist who always pairs her tasteful visual sensibility with an interest in the uncomfortable chaos of being a person, she's letting her audience watch as she figures out what works.emilymast.com.
Comedy writer Jason Shapiro started the Twitter feed @LosFelizDaycare in 2013, and you would have thought it would be old hat at this point, but there is no shortage of fodder for satirizing young, educated, progressive, Angeleno parents. The feed spoofs not only their child-rearing styles but also their other fixations, such as food trends ("Truffle macaroni art was a huge success today"), mindfulness ("Ramen (3) will only eat white foods but we're letting her live her truth for now."), debates over gender in pop culture ("Hmm we like that the new Ghostbusters cast is all female but we can't be supporting Judeo-Christian afterlife propaganda") and, of course, vaccination ("Java (3) is giving a talk on vaccine paranoia vs. vaccine hesitancy tomorrow. Time is meaningless so whenever you come will be the right time.") It's fun to imagine a daycare in which Intelligentsia shows up in a "Free Adnan" T-shirt and Wren calls Linus a "slacktivist" over the sounds of Sleater-Kinney before everyone sits down to watch Pussy Riot's House of Cards appearance together to avoid spoilers.
Photographer Kate Rentz's Instagram feed will make you want to put down your phone and grab a sleeping bag. The Los Angeles–based photographer is always outdoors: hiking in the mountains, camping in the forests, twisting through canyons or even just playing Monopoly in the park. Snap a shot of her dinner? Not unless it's a picnic basket. Rentz's quest to merit her favorite hashtag —#LiveAuthentic — has taken her as far as backpacking on an Argentine glacier, and her nature portraits of her husband, music video director Isaac Rentz, and their dog Maggie are both stunning and cozy. But it's her pictures of California that make her our favorite Instagrammer. Not only do her photos capture the ecological diversity of our state, they urge you to get in the car and chase her trail. Just check out the comments: "Where is that?" "How close?" and "Take me!"instagram.com/katerentz
As an L.A.-based musician of complex talents and singular taste with his own band, The One AM Radio, Hrishikesh Hirway understands the amount of finesse and perfectionism that goes into crafting fantastic songs. With his Radiotopia-powered podcast, Song Exploder, he takes that understanding to interviews with other music makers — some of whom are of the household-name variety — and draws out the best parts and thoughts. By doing all of the hard work of chasing down his favorite songmakers, conversing with them at length and — most importantly — filing his conversations down to their essential pieces, he ends up with a tight but well-tuned 13 to 15 minutes about a single song. All of his own effort cuts out the prosaic (though often necessary to the process) prattle that lesser music podcasts force their listeners to endure. Given that he's been featured in Wired and the AV Club and has featured acts like U2, Death Cab for Cutie and Best Coast, it's doubtful he'll have to do much more chasing.songexploder.net
Suffice to say, Dave Ross is a funny guy. His storytelling and self-deprecating entr'actes to his own late, great Holy Fuck free comedy show in downtown L.A. were perfect morsels of what the kids used to call "alt comedy." Even better, his superb taste in other comedians, from nobodies to marquee acts, brought together the kind of talent that average schmoes would have lined up to pay for at mainstage clubs. Ross takes all that and, with new co-host Anna Seregina, puts it into the magic of Internet streams. The show, operating under Nerdist's banner, focuses on insecurities rather than merely yuks, and, unlike certain garage-based hosts' nasal chattering, Ross' gravelly baritone has a soothing effect that facilitates his guests' self-dissection. While he's not drawing commanders-in-chief (yet), his roster pulls in the kinds of folks on the edge of L.A.'s cultural fabric whom you'll be posting about and retweeting in the years to come.nerdist.com/podcasts/terrified-channel
The setup is simple — six comedians rhyme over a beat, competing with one another for audience votes — but the results are endlessly varied. Every second Tuesday of the month, stand-up and improv comic Eliza Skinner, with the beatboxing assistance of Joshua Silverstein, hosts Turnt Up!, a rap battle that features your favorite local stand-ups leaving their scripts and set lists behind to risk humiliation in the freestyling ring. The audience rewards cleverness and fearlessness over insults and the show has become so popular that professional rappers — from Busdriver and Open Mike Eagle to comedic rhymer Wayne Brady — occasionally pop in, taking the stage at the end to play around with the winning comic. No matter the surprise star power on any night, though, the most impressive rhymes typically come from Skinner herself, who opens each show by spinning an audience suggestion into an impromptu track.

Record Description
The collection "Delaware, Marriage Records, 1913-1954" consists an index and images of Delaware statewide marriage records. The certificates are arranged by year then by certificate number.
The collection "Delaware, Marriages and Marriage Licenses, 1713-1894" consists of an index to selected church marriages and marriage licenses.
Record Content
Delaware marriage records may include the following:
- Groom's name and residence
- Groom's age, race, nativity and occupation
- Name of groom's father and place of nativity
- Name of groom's mother and place of nativity
- Marital status of the bride and groom
- Bride's name and residence
- Bride's age, race, and nativity
- Name of bride's father and place of nativity
- Name of bride's mother and place of nativity
- Name of the officiator
- Witnesses' names and their place of residence
How to Use the Records
When searching the index it is helpful to know the following:
- The county where the marriage occurred
- The name of the person at the time of marriage
- The approximate marriage date
- The marriage place
- The name of the intended spouse
Search the Collection
To search the collection, fill in the requested information in the initial search page. This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information about the ancestors in the list to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination.
As you are searching it is helpful to know such information as your ancestor's given name and surname, some identifying information such as residence and age, and family relationships. Remember that there may be more than one person in the records with the same name as your ancestor and that your ancestor may have used nicknames or different names at different times.
- If your ancestor used an alias or a nickname, be sure to check for those alternate names.
- Keep in mind that even though these indexes are very accurate they may still contain inaccuracies, such as altered spellings, misinterpretations, and optical character recognition errors if the information was scanned.
For tips about searching on-line collections see the on-line video at FamilySearch Search Tips.
Using the Information
When you have located your ancestor's marriage record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors. Add this new information to your records of each family.
For example:
- Use the marriage date and place as the basis for compiling a new family group or for verifying existing information.
- Use the birth date or age along with the place of birth of each partner to find a couple's birth records and parents' names.
- Use the birth date or age along with the place of birth to find the family in census records.
- Use the residence and names of the parents to locate church and land records.
- Use the parent's birth places to find former residences and to establish a migration pattern for the family.
- Use the marriage number to identify previous marriages.
Tips to Keep in Mind
- The information in marriage records is usually reliable, but depends upon the reliability of the informant.
- Earlier records may not contain as much information as the records created after the late 1900.
- There is also some variation in the information given from one marriage record to another record.
- Occupations listed can lead you to other types of records such as employment or military records.
- The name of the officiator is a clue to their religion or area of residence in the county. However, ministers may have reported marriages performed in other counties.
- Compile the marriage entries for every person who has the same surname as the bride or groom; this is especially helpful in rural areas or if the surname is unusual.
- Continue to search the marriage records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives of the bride and groom who may have married in the same county or nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family or even the second marriage of a parent. Repeat this process for each new generation you identify.
- When looking for a person who had a common name, look at all the entries for the name before deciding which is correct.
Unable to Find your Ancestor?
- Look for variant spellings of the surnames.
- Search the related collection Delaware, Vital Records (FamilySearch Historical Records)
- Search the indexes and records of nearby localities.
General Information About These Records
State registration of marriages began in 1847 as the recorder of deeds for each county began to send copies of marriages to the secretary of the State Board of Health. Vital registration was generally complied with after 1913 when the central Bureau of Vital Statistics was established according to state law, which required registration of vital records. Copies of marriage records for the most recent 40 years can be obtained by writing to the Bureau of Vital Statistics, or for earlier records, from the Delaware Public Archives in Dover, Delaware.
Population coverage is nearly 100% after statewide registration began in 1847. Coverage is not as complete for some earlier years.
Counties in Delaware recorded marriages to safeguard the interests of the wife and other legal heirs by documenting marriages and property ownership. Marriage records are considered to be primary source records. Information in these records is usually reliable, including the marriage date and place and residences of the bride and groom.
Originally, marriage records were handwritten. Later they were typed on pre-printed forms with multiple entries on each page. Marriage records were generally well preserved, though fires, floods, or other disasters may have destroyed some records.

BASEBALL; If You Taped This One, Erase It
By JOE SEXTON,
Published: April 11, 1991
The game was not one for the ages. It was not, truth be told, even much of a game for April. And so the long stream of red taillights snaking out the Shea Stadium exits by the end of five innings and three hours of baseball, a line formed in pursuit of warmth and sanity, told the story as well as anything else.
Herewith, though, the relevant details: 1) The Phillies won. 2) No one on either team got hurt.
In a game of wild pitches and myriad misadventures in the field -- players at the plate ducking for cover and players in the field basically ducking each other -- the Phillies prevailed, 8-7. They won despite giving up 15 walks, compiling 3 errors, having to score 3 unearned runs to even the game and claiming the triumph with an inning that was constructed as follows:
Jeff Innis walks Len Dykstra to start the 10th inning. John Franco, the fifth pitcher for the Mets, comes on to issue the Phillies their eighth and ninth walks of the game, and then John Kruk collects the final r.b.i. of a game that took just under five hours to play by barely beating out a double-play grounder to second. Ugly Numbers
In all, the game featured these combined inglorious totals: 24 walks, 11 pitchers, 3 wild pitches, 5 errors and 3 unearned runs, 1 passed ball, a hit batsman and a handful of fly balls coughed up or ignored altogether in the outfield. The Mets themselves stranded 18 runners on base.
"There's not a whole lot you can do when you have great pitchers out there who can't throw strikes," Manager Bud Harrelson of the Mets said.
Franco's assessment of his part in the debacle at least had some humor in it: "I just got jealous of everybody else walking guys."
Having started a pitcher who might as well have been throwing paper airplanes at the plate, and trailing by 7-4 in the seventh, the Phillies scored three unearned runs to tie it. The runs came on a single, an error by third baseman Gregg Jefferies, a walk by Dykstra and a double to right off Alejandro Pena by Darren Daulton, a shot that bounced out of Hubie Brooks's glove along the line.
The Mets, in no more glamorous fashion, had scored three runs to temporarily break open a 4-4 game in the fifth. The ugly uprising's particulars included Howard Johnson's lazy fly ball to center landing amid three uninterested Phillies for a double, Daulton's rifling a throw from behind the plate into left field to try and nail a stealing Johnson, an infield single from Vince Coleman that traveled 25 feet and, at last, a legitimate single to center by Jefferies. Collapse of Confidence
Jose DeJesus, that rarest of right-handed starters to muffle the Mets last season, suffered a complete collapse of confidence and control on the mound, walking the bases loaded and then forcing a run home with his sixth walk in one and a third innings.
The episode began with the opening sequence of DeJesus's first inning when he walked Coleman. Later, despite walking Hubie Brooks, DeJesus escaped without allowing a run, but he could not free himself from his paralyzing problem with strikes.
With the plate shrinking and his embarrassment expanding with every pitch, DeJesus, who went 3-0 with an earned run average of 1.07 against the Mets last season, walked Mark Carreon to start the second. Tom Herr took four straight pitches for balls, and in an instant DeJesus had loaded the bases with his free pass to Charlie O'Brien.
There were repeated conferences on the mound, solo sessions with his catcher and larger group meetings with the manager and infielders, but there was no cure. DeJesus, whose 51 total pitches would include only 16 strikes, forced in the game's first run with his second walk of Coleman and that was it for him for the night.
That wasn't, though, it for the threat. Jefferies, hitless since his first time at bat of the season, scorched a single up the middle off Tommy Greene for a 2-0 edge, and then Dave Magadan increased it to 3-0 when he lifted a sacrifice fly to right. INSIDE PITCH
VINCE COLEMAN'S pair of steals in the first inning ran his career total to 551 and moved him into 13th place on the career list. . . . RON DARLING , who was sidelined with a virus yesterday, was scratched from his first scheduled start of the season and moved back to tomorrow. . . . WALLY WHITEHURST , originally slated for tomorrow, will face the Expos tonight.

VisionTek Radeon R9 280X 3GB Video Card Review
Power Consumption Test
Using our PROVA Power Analyzer WM-01 or "Power Thingy" as it has become quickly known as to our readers, we are now able to find out what kind of power is being used by our test system and the associated video cards installed. Keep in mind; it tests the complete system (minus LCD monitor, which is plugged directly into AC wall socket).
There are a few important notes to remember though; while our maximum power is taken in 3DMark06 at the same exact point, we have seen in particular tests the power being drawn as much as 10% more. We test at the exact same stage every time; therefore tests should be very consistent and accurate.
The other thing to remember is that our test system is bare minimum - only a SSD hard drive is used with a single CD ROM and minimal cooling fans.
So while the system might draw 400 watts in our test system, placing it into your own PC with a number of other items, the draw is going to be higher.
At a little over 400 watt under load, we're sitting towards the middle of the pack here. We'd recommend a quality 550 Watt - 600 Watt PSU for a setup like this.

Voting as a Mindful Consumer
By Sarah Sheen
The power of the consumer is undeniable. Our choices shape our standards of living and during this election season, I think it is worth exploring the impact our choices make and the variables that shape those choices!
Is it possible that we are experiencing a Second Industrial Revolution with all the corresponding technology booms and health crises that came with the first? Wikipedia defines The Industrial Revolution as: a period from 1750 to 1850 where changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology had a profound effect on the social, economic and cultural conditions of the times. Sound familiar, anyone?
A helpful visualization created by Goswami Kriyananda goes something like this: You are in a rowboat with the option of anchoring on one of two lands: the shore of Exploitation or the shore of Compassion. Exploitation has some murky, leech-filled water on the beach and the sky is filled with noxious fumes. Compassion has a crystal clear coral reef bordering a land filled with wildlife. We know both exist: the key is where we choose to anchor our rowboats.
Michael Pollan has advised us, as consumers, to vote with our dollars. Each of us spends money on food, clothing, transportation, media, housing and personal care. To ensure that our money is spent toward a sustainable society and healthy planet, investigate the following:
Source: Transparent
Production: Ethical
Quality: High
The poetry of the situation is, when a product is created without compassion, our consumption of it is likely to expose us to various pathogens. If exploitation is a vicious cycle, compassion is like a drop in a powerful body of water. To quote Frances Moore Lappé:
"We're just a drop in the bucket, and that's meaningless. But we say: No, wait a minute. If you have a bucket, those raindrops fill it up very fast. Being a drop in the bucket is magnificent! The problem is we cannot see the bucket. Our work is helping people see that there is a bucket. There are all these people all over the world who are creating this bucket of hope. And so our drops are incredibly significant."
A trip to the Mütter Museum of Medical Oddities in Philadelphia is enough to convince one of the toll taken on people's health by the First Industrial Revolution. Various asylums such as the Salpêtrière in Paris and Bedlam outside London sprang up in this era. Exploitation may take slightly different forms today, but history does repeat itself. Some of the profound mutations we face today are at the cellular level, such as GMOs damaging our DNA strands.
As a consumer, it is possible to be part of an exciting agricultural reformation, simply through mindfully choosing where our dollars go. While it is depressing to know that exploitation exists, it is productive and empowering to add little drops to compassionate movements which are certainly on the rise. Some movements which continuously inspire and educate include:
Earth Democracy (Vandana Shiva) navdanya.org
Food Revolution Network (John & Ocean Robbins) foodrevolution.org
Institute for Responsible Technology (Jeffrey Smith) responsibletechnology.org
Slow Food International (Carlo Petrini) slowfood.com
Small Planet Institute (Frances Moore Lappé) smallplanet.org
Whole Life Nutrition (Ali Segersten & Tom Malterre) nourishingmeals.com

A fantastic assessment…well done!

Unlike some jobs where on a daily basis is a new adventure, you are able to pretty much expect to perform similar tasks every single day as a pharmacist. This really makes it easier for product seekers to have their desired products on desired time. A pharmacy, whether positioned in a retail environment or setup exclusively to supply supplies to a medical facility, has to follow certain rules. If you will not be about the phone in the doctor's office, then don't do it at the pharmacy either.

The online pharmacies offer valuable alternatives such as choices for checking the branded cefuroxime and sudafed medicines, allows that compares available prices and in addition to make bargains depending about the category of drug. Of course, the exam might be quite challenging, so you're going to should prepare.

Boozer, Jazz continue home mastery of HawksFeb 24, 2008 - 6:16 AM SALT LAKE CITY (Ticker) -- Carlos Boozer scored 21 points and grabbed 12 rebounds as the Utah Jazz held off the fiesty Atlanta Hawks, 100-94, on Saturday.
Andrei Kirilenko scored 11 points and the Utah reserves outscored Atlanta's bench, 36-12, en route to their 14th straight home win over the Hawks.
"We're always happy with a win," said forward Kyle Korver, who sealed the win with four free throws in the final 20 seconds.
"I feel like we haven't been playing quite as well the last couple games as we had been the last month-and-a-half. We've gotta get back on track, and wins always help that."
Josh Smith scored 30 points and Mike Bibby added 18 and nine assists for Atlanta, which has not won here since February 13, 1993.
"This team really gave us a lot of trouble," Jazz coach Jerry Sloan said. "I thought they played hard. They pushed the ball up the floor. They've got a lot of great athletes and we had to play awfully well there to finish the ballgame and end up being able to win."
Utah, which has the best home mark in the league at 24-3, has now won 14 straight here. It is five games off the franchise mark of 19 set in 1996.
"We know we're a very good home team, and we're going to continue to capitalize on our home-court advantage, with our fans and how we play here," Boozer said. "We're not going to think about records - before somebody jinxes it."
Despite the victory, it was the second messy showing in a row for the Jazz, who fell to the woeful Clippers on the road Friday.
Utah exploded at the end of the third quarter with a 15-4 run to take a 73-62 lead into the final period.
The lead reached 82-66 with 8:57 left but the Hawks, who hit 7-of-15 3-pointers, rallied. In a matter of five possessions, the Hawks hit three 3-pointers. Joe Johnson's second of the period made it a one-possession game, 82-79, with 5:33 left.
"They're a good perimeter shooting team," Jazz point guard Deron Williams said. "They're very athletic and they're hard to defend. They've got a lot of different lineups - they go small, they go big. They're a tough team."
Kirilenko's 3-pointer pushed the Utah lead back up to six. But it wasn't long before Atlanta was within two at 90-88, thanks to Josh Smith's 3-point play at the two-minute mark.
Atlanta hurt its chances of coming back by turning the ball over 22 times.
"We kept digging holes and then we would come back," Hawks coach Mike Woodson said. "Against a good team like this, we turned the ball over so many times tonight that we didn't give ourselves an opportunity to score the ball, and you can't do that on the road."
With 43 seconds remaining and Utah ahead, 94-90, Smith who second in the NBA with 3.2 blocks per game, kept the Jazz from getting any breathing room with a crucial block on Boozer.
But the fourth-year swingman missed a jumper on the other end and the Jazz escaped.
Johnson had 14 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists for Atlanta, which fell to 1-4 on its six-game road trip.

July 27 vs. Auburn, Win 2-1
Cesar Valera's bases- loaded walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth, his fourth hit of the game, gave the State College a 2-1 victory last Saturday.
State College trailed 1-0 going into the ninth, but got its rally started with Luke Voit's one-out infield single. Michael Schulze then ran for Voit and moved to second on Matthew Young's walk. Steven Ramos followed with another infield single to load the bases and set up Luis Perez's game-tying hit by pitch. On the very first pitch he saw, Valera stroked a base hit to right field to plate Young for the winning run.
Jacob Booden earned his first victory for Sate College with two scoreless innings of relief, in which he struck out five and yielded just one hit and one walk. Spikes starter Arturo Reyes was also effective, allowing just one run on four hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings of work.
July 28 at Batavia, Loss 10-5
The Spikes led 4-0 after three innings, but the wheels fell off for Willy Paulino in the bottom of the fourth on Sunday.
The Muckdogs opened the frame with two singles, a triple and an RBI groundout to bring home their first three runs in the fourth. With two outs, Paulino then plunked a batter, allowed a single then struck out Avery Romero, but the ball scooted away from Spikes' catcher Dante Rosenberg and Romero reached to load the bases. The lanky right-hander then issued a bases-loaded walk to give Batavia 5-4 lead.
Paulino's day was done after 3.2 innings, during which he allowed five runs, all earned, on six hits, three walks and one hit batter. Kyle Webb came on in relief, and got the next batter to ground out weakly to end the nightmarish fourth inning for State College.
The Muckdogs scored five runs to State College's one over the next three frames. The ten runs allowed by Spikes pitchers were the most in any game this season. State College had not allowed more than seven runs in a game prior to Sunday.
The Spikes' two, three and four hitters - Valera, Bruce Caldwell and David Washington - went a combined 9-for-14 at the plate, scoring five runs and driving in three.
July 29 at Batavia, Win 2-1 (13 innings)
The Spikes pushed the first run of the game across in the top of the fourth on an RBI double from Carson Kelly.
The Muckdogs came right back in the home half of the fourth though, and pushed a run across on an RBI groundout to tie the game.
In the eighth, with the score still 1-1, Muckdogs' right fielder Carlos Lopez barreled around third and crashed into Spikes catcher Alex De Leon while trying to score from first on a double. The Wooldland Hill, Cal. native received the throw from left field, and his chest took the brunt of the force. De Leon was removed from the game immediately following the collision. Though not on the disabled list, he has not played since.
Jacob Booden, one of six Spikes pitchers in Monday's contest, picked up the win. He held Batavia scoreless in the 11th and 12th frames, allowing one hit, two walks and one strikeout.
Caldwell led off the 13th with a line drive single to center, moved to second on a Washington infield single, and third on a sacrifice bunt from Kelly. Caldwell then came around to score the winning run on a sacrifice fly from Luis Perez.
July 30 vs. Tri-City, Win 6-2
The ValleyCats got on the board first on Tuesday when they pushed a run across on a solo home run in the top of the third.
State College came right back with a four-run offensive barrage in the fourth to take the lead.
The Spikes began the inning with consecutive singles from Matthew Young, Steven Ramos and Valera, who brought home Young with a line drive to center to tie the game at 1-1.
Later in the inning, with runners on the corners and one out, Washington ripped an RBI line drive to center and was followed by a two-run triple to left from Kelly, to push the Spikes lead to 4-1.
The Spikes added two more in the seventh, and Tri-City came back for one run in the eighth to make it a 6-2 ballgame.
Jimmy Reed started for the Spikes and gave up that solo shot in the third, but scattered Tri-City's four other singles en route to allowing just one run in five innings of work.
Andrew Pierce came on in the sixth and allowed just one run in his four innings of relief to back up Reed. The lanky righty allowed just three hits and struck out six to close out the win.
July 31 vs. Tri-City, Win 7-4
After the two squads traded punches early on Wednesday, Tri-City led 4-3 through six, but everything fell apart for Tri-City in the seventh.
Valera led off the inning with a hard ground ball to the 'Cats shortstop, Chan Moon, who booted the ball, allowing Valera to reach.
Following a strikeout, 'Cats pitchers issued State College three straight walks and gave up a sacrifice fly to Luis Perez as the Spikes took a 5-4 lead.
The Spikes weren't content with the one run lead, tacking on two insurance runs in the eighth to extend the cushion to 7-4.
State College's offense came from an unlikely source though. Voit, Young, Ramos and Valera, the bottom two and top two batters in the State College lineup, went a combined 7-for-17 with four RBI as Young extended his hit streak to ten games.
Mason Katz also had a good day the plate, going 2-for-3 with two doubles and an RBI.
August 1 vs. Tri-City, Win 4-1
In his first game action with the club, Brett Wiley was the catalyst for State College on Thursday, providing a two-run triple in the fifth and an RBI single in the seventh.
The Huntington, Ind. native was promoted from Johnson City, Tenn. on Wednesday, and was in the lineup just over 24 hours after arriving in State College.
The Spikes fell behind early when Tony Kemp ripped a triple to right field on the second pitch thrown by Spikes starter Kevin Herget, and scored on a groundout to give the ValleyCats a 1-0 lead.
The Spikes' offense came alive in the fifth as the club pushed across three runs on an RBI single from Perez and two more runs on Wiley's triple.
State College tacked on an insurance run in the seventh, when Luis Perez was singled home by Wiley to extend the Spikes' lead to 4-1.
Herget worked 5 2/3 innings, scattering four hits, allowing just the one run in the first and striking out four.
Mike Aldrete and Jacob Booden combined for three shutout innings to back up Herget and preserve the Spikes win.
August 2 vs. Vermont, Win 1-0
Steven Ramos lined a single to left-center field in the bottom of the ninth inning to plate the only run of the game.
Friday's contest was a pitchers' duel as Arturo Reyes and Victor DeLeon combined for eight shutout innings.
In the ninth, Katz reached on an error to lead off the frame, and after a sacrifice bunt and intentional walk, left for pinch-runner Wiley. Ramos sent a two-strike pitch to left-center to bring Wiley across for the game-winning run.
The game-winning hit came after Ramos had been thrown out at third base as the potential go-ahead run in the eighth inning on a sacrifice bunt by Juan Herrera. Herrera sacrificed Ramos from second to third, but Ramos overran third, thinking he might be able to take home. Vermont's catcher made the play on the bunt, and Ramos thought he might not get back in time, but by the time Ramos made up his mind he was in no man's land and was thrown behind by Vermont's first baseman for the double play.
At the Plate
Not the usual suspects – The State College offense wasn't clicking the way it was earlier in the season, but they received production when they needed it this week. It came from any given spot in the lineup any given night.
Matthew Young carried a ten-game hitting streak into Saturday's game, and he and Luke Voit provided key hits Tuesday and Wednesday.
Young, who really struggled in June, has picked it up, and is starting to come around now. Spikes manager Oliver Marmol said he and hitting coach Ramon "Smokey" Ortiz changed a few things mechanically a couple weeks ago and Young hasn't been getting beaten by fastballs as often.
Young is exceptional athlete, with a great arm, an instinct for right field and a good head on his shoulders. If his swing can come around, it would be a tremendous boost to this State College squad and his development.
On the Mound
Mike Aldrete – Aldrete, son of Cardinals bench coach Mike Aldrete, threw four innings of shutout relief over two appearances this week. The Salinas, Cal. native struck out four, and allowed just one hit.
Jacob Booden – Booden appeared in three games this week, pitching six shutout innings out of the pen (2.0 each game). The 6-foot-7 righty allowed just three hits and struck out seven in his six innings of work.
Kevin Herget – Herget (5-0) won his only start this week, tossing his one of his best outings of the season. The Kean University (N.J.) product went five innings, allowing just one run on four hits, while striking out four. The 2013 39th round selection leads the New York-Penn League Pinckney Division in wins this season, but has his offense to thank for many of them. Entering his start on Thursday, opponents were batting .348 against Herget this season.
The righty has found his curveball and been trusting his stuff more over his last two starts. At the beginning of the season, Herget was trying to blow his low to mid 90s fastball by hitters but said in his postgame remarks on Thursday that he is learning to pitch to contact.
7/31 – Infielder Bruce Caldwell promoted to Peoria
7/31 - Infielder Brett Wiley received from Johnson City
7/31 - Infielder Juan Herrera traded from Indians to Cardinals, assigned to State College
7/29 – Alex De Leon was injured in a collision at home plate. Initially reports were a chest injury, but concussion tests were run. No official injury status, but it doesn't appear that a DL stint will be necessary.
7/22 – Ronald Castillo was placed on the 7-day DL after injuring his left shoulder diving for line drive on July 21st against Connecticut. Castillo remains out, more than ten days since the injury. Castillo went to St. Louis to be evaluated by team physicians, but there has been no word on when a possible activation might occur.
On the Horizon
The Spikes will wrap up their home stand with games against Vermont on Saturday and Sunday before hitting the road Tuesday for a six-game road trip to New York to take on Staten Island and Brooklyn.

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Hello, I am Rafael. Thanks for asking your question - I'm here to support you. (Information posted here is not private or confidential but public).
I am very sorry to know about this sad and frustrating situation.
You're very welcome
This is very concerning since it shows how overwhelming your husband's mental health problems have literally shaped and undermined the quality of your marital and family lives.
For hos long have you been married?
The fact that you have been married this long, assuming he has had this disorder-s all this time and perhaps from before marriage, shows you have not developed good communication, intimacy nor trust necessary to build a healthy and mutually fulfilling and happy life together.
Confrontation of unhealthy or destructive behaviors is a core ingredient of every healthy relationship. Without it, there is no way for improvement; it is a part of healthy communication, where both spouses happen to be truly honest and open with each other, fully showing what they think, feel, need and want, otherwise marriage would be based on anything but their own reality, thus become very dysfunctional and non fulfilling.
Right, and such unhealthy approach enables further distortions at multiple levels. It's very codependent, thus unhealthy and could not lead to anything healthy for any of you.
First you have to come to terms with the fact that this unavoidable process would not be easy, but would be the toughest one, would trigger multiple issues and a strong defensive and hostile reaction, but there is no other option is what you truly want is to start takign good care of yourself and children. You cannot control him but you do have the power, right and responsibility to control your choices and actions about yourself and your children, and what you offer to this marriage and family. Remaining codependently passive, enabling further dysfunction would just damage everybody more and more.
Be fully honest, open, respectful and direct, consistent with what you know and feel, taking responsibility for your feelings but not for his own feelings, choices and actions. It's obvious psychotherapy is necessary here for him to work on himself, for you to develop the skills to effectively cope and take better care of yourself, children and to promote his rehabilitation, but only time would show if he happens to do the same. if he doesn't choose to work on himself with necessary professional support, committing to it, then there is not much you could do about it.
You bet it is. Individual psychotherapy and joining a support group for codependency seem to be necessary sources of support you need to seriously consider
Absolutely, work becomes a behavior of addiction for many people, since it allows them to compensate many issues from personal lives they just do not know how to handle. Many very successful professional people do develop compulsion - addiction to work while systematically avoiding, denying and neglecting reality in their personal lives, at one or multiple areas.
The saddest consequences are about children learning from and developing similar behavioral patterns and personality traits, both from obsessive - compulsive and codependent parents, becoming dysfunctional young people and adults.
Denial, avoidance, repression and manipulation are all part of this illusion-disorders, and as long as they get perpetuated, the situation would be hopeless. Only a truly assertive and accountable approach would lead to positive changes, but for these changes to impact marriage and family as a whole, both adults must work together as a team to make this happen, otherwise it won't.
Being a good material provider while neglecting everything else important in a marital and family life could never be a healthy nor acceptable approach. Emotional, psychological health and integral well-being are and should be set as number one priorities, ultimate goals for couples and families, while jobs, as important as they may be, should be set as necessary means to take good care of people, your health, happiness and well-being, not the other way around.
Avoidance is a common issue fueling this obsessive-addictive tendencies, they become destructive defense mechanisms, and the person needs to fully acknowledge the core issues and take full responsibility for choices and actions, committing to set right priorities and work on making real changes, with necessary support.
Sadly time and life show how dysfunctional such approach happens to be. Not hard to assess it, just honestly assess the consequences, the pros and cons of it in yourself, children and husband, and from there you would know how unhealthy it truly is.
Genetics play a role for sure, but believe me that there is much more from nurture that could create or trigger distortions than what people may think, and there is nothing more powerful in a child's mind and personality development than their parents' modeling, the quality of their affection and parenting, what they share day by day, what they receive or not from them at those core levels.
You're very welcome. Thank you for your trust.

The insulin is probably a big part of the extra hair. The insulin stimulates the cells of the ovary to produce more male hormones. These extra male hormones right in the ovary mess up ovulation. Insulin can also suppress the liver substance SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin) which is supposed to bind male hormones and keep them inactive and there for in check. So the more deranged your metabolism is, the heavier you get, the worse your PCOS gets.
So how to fix: well to some extent there is no fix, it's in your genes, but it can be controlled. Control anything and everything diet: lower bad LDL cholesterol, lower the blood fat triglyceride, exercise and increase good HDL cholesterol, slim by even 5%, control the sugar and use diabetic drugs like metformin if you need to. But watch for side effects of the medications used to control insulin and blood sugar. Metformin can have its negative side, it can lower vitamin B12 levels (side effects of low B12 levels might include numbness, other odd neurologic symptoms such as memory loss and behavior changes). Oral contraceptives can suppress the boy hormones of the ovary, so that's a good bet that it will be recommended as a possible solution by your gyno.
The fix for PCOS is not simple, and the more we learn, the more we know that we have to follow our PCOS patients closely, check their sugars, scan their gall bladders, check their hormone levels, discuss contraception carefully, help them control their weight, and help them when they want to get pregnant, there's a lot to gab about here!

Facebook Stock: Is Facebook Inc. (FB) Stock Set For A Big Rally?
- FB short interest fell by 12% in the last reporting cycle.
- Instagram is now getting live stories as Facebook makes major upgrades to various social properties.
- The stock has bounced off its 200-day moving average. Should investors buy FB stock now?
Facebook stock closed the last trading session at $121.77, a gain of over 4% in a single trading session. The stock has now nearly wiped out the all the losses incurred following the US presidential elections. with the short interest in Facebook stock declining by 12%, will Facebook's rally continue? Has the Facebook stock finally turned the corner?
Facebook Short Interest And Why It matters
So what exactly is short interest and why does it matter? Short interest represents the total number of shorted contracts at a particular point in time (October 31st). A rise in the short interest indicates that investors/traders anticipate the stock price to move lower, and can be interpreted as a bearish signal. A fall in the short interest indicates growing belief among investors that the stock could be heading higher in the future. With this brief background on short interest, let's now dig deeper into the Facebook short interest data. (See also: All You Need To Know About Facebook Inc.'s $6 Billion Share Buyback)
Short interest in Facebook fell by 12% in the last reporting cycle (October 31), with the number of shares shorted at the end of the reporting cycle coming in at 18.69M shares. The number of shares shorted is now very close to the 12 month low of 18.56M shares, which was hit on August 31. Looking at the short interest data over the last one month (2 reporting cycle), the short interest has fallen by 17% since the end of September, which is a huge decline during such a short time frame. With the short interest data declining, the recent rise in the stock price could see a greater number of shorts running for cover, which should add fuel to Facebook's rally coming out of its recent lows around $115.
Instagram Gets Live Video And Ephemeral Attributes
Facebook-owned popular photo sharing app, Instagram, has been busy adding new features and capability to the platform. After launching stories this past summer, Instagram has brought the features of Live video to its 'Stories' product and also added ephemeral photos and videos to its Instagram direct product. With 60% of its 500M monthly active users visiting the platform daily, the photo sharing network is high on engagement. Even more interesting is the fact that over 50% of Instagram users are in the 18-29 age groups. This highly engaged and young audience is extremely attractive from advertisers perspective which is leading to Instagram's rising popularity with advertisers. Instagram recently started allowing business accounts on the platform, which in combination with the advertising for business option should help Instagram become a bigger contributor to Facebook's overall growth.
Facebook Has Many Levers To Drive Growth
The latest concerns bogging down the Facebook stock price have mostly got to do with Facebook's comments of increased investments over the next year. The company warned investors of slowing earnings growth, as ad loads have peaked on the platform and the company plans to go into an investment overdrive. However, this isn't the first time that the company has warned about 'heightened' investment.
In October 2014, the company had warned of increased investments during FY 2015, which was expected to take a hit on the company's topline growth as well as profit margins. The result was a slowdown in top line growth to 43% YoY in FY 2015 while Net Income grew by 25% YoY, as the company saw margin contractions. However, the company more than made up for these investments with 2016 being more of a harvest year as the company reported a 56% YoY top line growth, 93% YoY growth in Non-GAAP Net Income and a 180% YoY growth in GAAP Income. As reported by Reuters, here is what Mark Zuckerberg had to say in October 2014:
"For us products don't get that interesting until they have about a billion people using them."
With Messenger and Whatsapp now having crossed the 1B user mark, it might be time Facebook will invest aggressively to monetize these properties. With Payments and business messaging having been integrated with the messenger 'app' and Instagram only starting to focus on monetization, investments into developing and harvesting the monetization potential of these platforms was bound to happen at some point. The various advertiser feature additions to the different products should ensure that Facebook isn't running out of growth drivers anytime soon. (See also: Is Facebook Inc. (FB) Stock A Big Short?)
Facebook Technicals
Facebook stock price recently closed above its 200 day moving average at 118.77 (as of Nov 21 close). With the stock price approaching the 50 day moving average (126.7), investors should observe the stock closely over the next few trading sessions. A breakout above the 50 day moving average on the daily chart accompanied by strong volume could be the confirmation Facebook bulls seek.
Facebook short interest has declined by 17% over the last 2 reporting cycles. The stock seems to have entered into a strong bullish move, gaining 4% in the lst trading session to close above the 200 day moving average. With the plethora of growth drivers still available, the Facebook growth story is still intact as fears around increased investment and ad load hitting a peak have been overblown. Investors should watch the stock closely and buy in on a strong breakout above the 50 day moving average, which should be a confirmation of the recent uptrend in Facebook stock price.

Rachel Weisz at the Brothers Bloom premiere in London. Right? Like architecture. But fashion. Wicked. Brothers Bloom opens some time in December. Duana and Michelle loved it at TIFF. And we all had our very own Adrien Brody moment at the Park Hyatt during the festival too. Which is why it's such a shame. Full Story
Hello Adrien Brody in love…
Hard. An intense, all consuming love. This must be why the ordinarily private Oscar winner has allowed his home to be photographed featuring him posing on the grounds and inside with his girlfriend Spanish actress Elsa Pataky. Elsa's career isn't exactly on par with his. But this won't hurt, will it? "I wouldn't be here without Elsa, because I wouldn't have had the courage to take a step this big," he tells Hello Canada in their new issue. Full Story
TIFF Blooms
Mark Ruffalo has like 8,000 movies in the festival this year! Seriously…he's a busy dude. But so underrated. By all accounts he is delightful in The Brothers Bloom which premiered last night at TIFF. Haven't had a chance to screen it but I can't imagine that Mark and Adrien Brody together for 2 hours will be terribly tough to endure. Full Story
TIFF Besties: Mark Ruffalo & Adrien Brody
There are few actors who are liked by EVERYONE. And there is no journalist or publicist I've talked to in two years at TIFF who has anything negative to say about Mark Ruffalo. He's a doll. So nice and so kind and so considerate and so normal and SO in love with his wife. eTalk hosted the official Blindness after party on Saturday at our headquarters at 299 Queen. Full Story
There's poster boy pretty and then there's just plain style… and while Adrien Brody may not be on the surface your typical garden variety quiveration, there is something about a man who looks a little off the beaten path, who you know can capture you from the first course to closing, who can kink it up in the bedroom, and keep yielding surprise after surprise well after the bloom of good looks had faded away.

My brief experience with Dr. Holley
I have experienced bladder cancer for a short number of years and have been treated by 3 urologists during that period of time. Due to the retirement of my original urologist, I was placed in the care of Dr. Holley. From the results of a bladder endoscopy she performed, she determined that I was in need of minor surgery to stabilize the growth of my bladder cancer. Surgery completed, I experienced much discomfort and an unusual excessive amount of bleeding in comparison to a previous bladder surgery. Concerned and following her post surgery instructions, I immediately contacted her office. I was told she was on vacation and wouldn't return for a month. The bleeding continued while I pleaded with her nursing staff for assistance. I was told to be patient, it would eventually stop bleeding. After 3 weeks or so it did stop to my relief. Dr. Holley returned from vacation and was immediately transferred to??? Thus, again I was assigned to the care of a new urologist. Again, another bladder endoscopy resulting in again...more endoscopic bladder surgery, all in the period of less than 8 months. I was left to wonder....What had Dr. Holley done that caused me much discomfort and excessive bleeding? Was it beneficial? Why less than 8 months later was I was back on the operating table?

my husband's surgery
My husband's first visit was not helpful, but this time was perfect. Dr. Holley and the entire staff was incredibly kind and helpful and we found the entire experience as satisfying as could be expected considering that the surgery involved cancer. We would both highly recommend Dr. Holley and the team to everyone. An A plus for sure!

Dr. Holley was cold, curt and unhelpful. Maybe she tells people every day that they have cancer, but I have never heard it before and her manner was awful. I hope that I have a more empathetic doctor next time. She might be a good doctor, but she needs to work on her people skills! Another thing: why does a person have to wait almost a month after getting a diagnosis before the next appointment?

Very Personable and caring doctor
Both my husband and myself had the opportunity to be cared for by this doctor. She answered questions and offered suggestions as to course of action without intimidating us. A straight shooter with a pro-active approach. Thank you Dr. Holley.

Comments about Behringer XENYX XL1600 Live Mixer:
I'm on my 2nd XL1600 board. First one after about 3 months several of my channels died. Two times I had to take it to the authorized repair shop recommended by Behringer which was 1.5 hours away and $20 a pop for tolls. Finally after two times they decided I should have a new board. Received the new board and within 1 month one channel died and just last week the left main out died. Contacted Behringer and you guessed it, I'm off on a 1.5 hour drive and out $20 in tolls to take it to the authorized repair shop. I've owned a lot of Behringer products and this is the first time I've ever had a problem but it's been a huge one. If I could I'd just get my money back and buy something that works properly and is reliable. I would not recommend anyone buy this board until they can work out the bugs.
Comments about Behringer XENYX XL1600 Live Mixer:
I bought this mixer from an authorized dealer in Guadalajara, Mexico. The first few days everything was well, the fifth or sixth time that I used it, one of the chanels started going out, I switched the mic to a different chanel and it seemed to work fine, after a few minutes one of the chanels died. I thought it was the amp failing and I cheked things out, but it turned out that it was the mixer. You have to hit the bak of the mixer to make the sound ome back. I strongly advie NOT to buy this mixer. In my ase I'll never buy any BEHRINGER produt.

A hacker has breached the PS3 security. The games like COD4, WaW and MW2 are filled with mods. The games are extremely modded now. Activision claims that "The mods are unfixable". Black Ops should still be fine, because it has new features that make it much harder to mod. Activision will not fix these games, so Black Ops is the only playable CoD game on PS3.
So basically, Black Ops is the only game that can be played without Excessive Mods on PS3. Activision plans to do nothing.

Music: Ron Nagle's '70 album, popular flop and cult hit, returns
Published 1:21 pm, Wednesday, January 28, 2015
Ron Nagle, a longtime curmudgeon of the San Francisco art and music scene, was swimming upstream in 1970 with the release of an album of dark, melancholy pop songs at the height of the San Francisco hippie psychedelic era. "Bad Rice," his lone solo album, is a long-lost cult classic about to be issued on CD for the first time in a two-disc deluxe set.
"People knew about it," says Nagle, 75, in his Bernal Heights hillside compound looking out on the city. "Howard Hesseman played it on 'WKRP in Cincinnati,' but that was many years later. It was just one of those weird things."
Nagle continued to write songs and record, but was also doing work as a ceramic artist, building a new career that would eventually overwhelm his music. His tiny, perfectly colored ceramic art pieces have evolved from often almost abstract contemplations of cups to more free-form sculptural work, equally small. Music remained a passion, if not an occupation, for several decades, but after retiring from the art department at Mills College five years ago, Nagle returned to the studio with collaborator Scott Mathews. The pair had made another little-noticed-gem album as the Durocs in 1978 and have produced two CDs since their return to action.
At the time of its release, "Bad Rice" sold fewer than 5,000 copies, despite a glowing five-star review in Rolling Stone by Ed Ward before his NPR days. Warner Bros. let Nagle cut a couple more demos, and then unceremoniously dumped him and consigned the little masterpiece to an obscurity disturbed only by arcane enthusiasts such as producer T Bone Burnett, one known "Bad Rice" fan.
"Warner Bros. was allegedly artist-oriented," Nagle says, wearing a yellow cardigan and T-shirt adorned with the Ben Davis gorilla. "I thought that meant they would lose money on you. I didn't realize at the time that meant 'play ball.' I didn't want to go down that road."
At the height of the label's fascination and success with singer-songwriters such as James Taylor, Van Morrison and Randy Newman, Nagle's misanthropic, iconoclastic songs that mixed crunching Stones-y rock with throwback sentimental pop was severely out of step with the label's aesthetics and the sound of the day.
"My songs were melancholy, darker stuff that was not particularly popular at the time, I can tell you that," Nagle says. "It wasn't cool in the happiness bastard era of the '60s. I wrote what I knew, and if I didn't know it, I would just write the story. I didn't want to save the world or make everyone brothers."
While attending the S.F. Art Institute, Nagle also belonged to a little-known local rock band called Mystery Trend that played many of same gigs that the Airplane and the Dead did in the early days of the Fillmore and the Avalon Ballroom. After that band dissolved, he signed a deal with kingpin radio disc jockey Tom Donahue, who invented underground rock radio at San Francisco's KSAN-FM, and who placed Nagle with his pals at Warner Bros. Nagle asked to have the record produced by the noted arranger who worked on all the Phil Spector "Wall of Sound" records, the late Jack Nitzsche.
An instant bond
Nitzsche impressed Nagle by showing up dressed in buckskin moccasins, feathers and beads. The two formed an instant, insane bond, basted in abundant alcohol. Engineer Bruce Botnick threw the pair out of their own session one night, an ejection all the more impressive considering the extensive work Botnick did with the non-abstemious Jim Morrison and the Doors. Nitzsche brought a young guitarist named Ry Cooder to light up some of the tracks. He also swathed some of Nagle's ballads in rich, syrupy strings, a sound far removed from the simple, spare pop-rock sound popular at the time.
"That was one of the top 10 thrills of my life," Nagle says, "hearing those studio musicians and all those strings on 'Frank's Store.' I cried. I remember Jack saying in the cans (headphones), 'I want you to get into the dream,' and it was like a dream hearing this song you wrote on an old upright piano transformed."
When the album was released, Nagle refused to tour in support of the release. He also rejected Donahue's invitation to join his traveling house band, Stoneground. "I didn't want to go on the road," he said. "I wanted to make records."
Within weeks, he was finding new copies of his album selling as remainders for a dollar. He took a meeting about his future on the label with Warner Bros. bosses Mo Ostin and Joe Smith. "You know who sat in that chair?" Smith told Nagle. "James Taylor."
"That was the worst period of my life," he says. "I was completely broke. I was drunk every day, depressed. I was working as a carpenter at the Rolling Stone offices on the night shift. That's when Jack called and asked if I wanted to work on this movie."
At Nitzsche's urging, Nagle created and produced the special audio effects for "The Exorcist" and slowly got back on his feet. But "Bad Rice" was never far from his mind. He has suffered through many previous disappointments surrounding the album's release on CD. "I can't tell you how many times this has fallen through and I would be crestfallen," he says.
Moving forward
Nagle is moving forward. His ceramics were recently exhibited at the Venice Biennale and are also the subject of a current retrospective exhibit at the San Diego Museum of Art. He and Mathews continue to record new music — "Spread the Love" and "She Lies" are their latest CDs — including a new composition built around a sample from the '50s pop chestnut "The Three Bells" by the Browns. He recently completed an extensive remodel of the Bernal Heights home where he has lived most of his life with wife Cindy Ehrlich, who keeps her writing office in a '40s silver bullet trailer parked in their backyard, on the other side of the lot from Nagle's art studio.
"Close big — that's what I'm trying to do," he says, "not that I'm planning on dying anytime soon. If I live long enough to enjoy it … not that I enjoy anything. I'm the man who can't have a good time. It's the curmudgeon way."

On our last Its real out there girls aint showing love to each other and the industry insecurities.
Tag: DeniseZimba
Total 7 Posts
We speak about her music her second or third shot at it. This is a pretty bleak conversation cause I was being sincere Denise was probably the sharpest female presenter on Vuzu. I need an extra interview and she needs to tell us why she left dammit.
Over 500 people that auditioned for her musical project. Is this why Denise left Vuzu? Peep the interview.
Denise is actually NOT coloured, if you didn't now, know you do. She tells us why people confuse her for being coloured and what her heritage really is. She also tells about how she took the opportunity to travel. Plus ! She's taken. By a "bae" who's not from Africa.
Denise addresses some rumours and misconceptions about her self. The evidence that she's black and not coloured can be seen from her behind. She cleared up the fact that she never slept her way to anywhere in the industry but we still interested in who is she busy with? Does
Had a chat with the girl Denise and she's super cool. We talked about surviving Fly Chicks,the reality show that ended up being plastic and why she walked away.
The Struggle Was Real During The Shoot Of Fly Chicks. She lived in her car when they were shooting Fly Chicks. The life that they showed you on the reality show was not real but the struggle was. FlyChicks Was Her Concept Which Was Changed For Tv: The end product

text: This proposal comes after Hillary Clinton [official profile] won the popular vote by at least 2.5 million [Time report], but lost the electoral college and presidency to Donald Trump [official profile]. But it's the rest of the 236 electors from 21 states who cast their electoral ballot for whomever they choose that he is urging to change their voted. The petition now has more than 4.6 million signatures, which is 2 million signatures more than the next most popular petition.Recently, one fearless Republican elector in Texas, resigned from his position as elector because he could not in good conscience bring himself to vote for Trump.U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee thinks it's time to do away with the Electoral College.Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election's popular vote by over two million votes – the largest margin in 140 years for ANY presidential candidate.Donald Trump's election came as a shocking blow to many Americans."His scapegoating of so many Americans, and his impulsivity, bullying, lying, admitted history of sexual assault, and utter lack of experience make him a danger to the republic", the petition reads.Sen. Daylin Leach, D-Montgomery, sent a memo on Thursday to fellow lawmakers asking for co-sponsorship on a future bill that would add Pennsylvania to the National Popular Vote Compact.A Pennsylvania state senator plans to introduce legislation that would award the Keystone State's Electoral College votes to the victor of the national popular vote in presidential elections, not the candidate who wins the most votes in the state.Trump's campaign on Thursday filed an objection to a recount request in MI led by Green Party candidate Jill Stein this week, calling the demand "lawless" and "insulting".The petition is titled "Make Hillary Clinton President" and argues that because Ms Clinton won the popular vote she should be made President.So-called "faithless electors" – who do not vote for their party's designated candidate – have previously moved away from their state's choice, but it has never affected the result of an election. The development of mass media and the internet, however, has made information about presidential candidates easily accessible to US citizens across the country and around the world. "Most people don't even know who their electors are". So why not use this most undemocratic of our institutions to ensure a democratic result?xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you live in a household that concerns itself with Christmas you've got a big decision to make in the next few weeks. How are you going to track Santa this year!?
And while you may think this is just something to concern yourself with on December 24th you couldn't be further from the truth. Apparently Santa tracking is a month-long affair.
You've got two major options: Norad or Google. The Norad site is done in collaboration with Microsoft so in theory it should work better in IE, and of course Google would prefer you use Chrome for their site. In practice, browser didn't seem to matter as long as you're using something fairly up to date.
Both sites offer a variety of Christmas-themed activities with new content unlocking every day. So far on the Google site I've seen a simple sled-driving game and an animated movie. There's also a link to an Android app. According to a Google blog post the activities will eventually include Javascript courses.
That said, I think I prefer the Norad tracker. They have games too (the one I tried was a pretty typical 'click the clusters of jewels' game), but also holiday music (most of it from armed forces bands), movies and a library that talks about holiday traditions from around the globe and other Christmas-themed topics. There's even a OneDrive page with downloadable coloring pages. Overall I feel like Norad has a bit more for the adults. Norad is a bit more inclusive in the mobile department too, with apps for Windows Phone, Android or iOS. Microsoft has a blog post about the Norad tracker, too.
Of course you don't really have to decide. You and your kids can visit both sites throughout the holiday season to see what kinds of new activities unlock. Both sites are worth checking out, if you're a fan of Christmas.

Deep Science Research Station (abbreviated as DSRS; more commonly referred to simply as Deep Science, was a Zombie research and experimentation station operated by the Republic of Florida in the Gulf of Mexico. It was destroyed by a long range commonwealth bomber in February 1998.
Deep Science is built atop a converted oil rig that has been fortified and fitted with an emergency self-destruct system. The entire rig is also surrounded by a massive cofferdam (the largest in the world) - a steel wall stretching from the ocean floor all the way up to forty feet above sea level and designed to prevent any potential contamination.
Deep Science has on hand thirty Zombie test subjects that are held in secure confinement. Some well-known subjects are:
- "Billy"- a Zombified six-year-old who is arguably the most 'human' Zombie known to mankind. His aggression is nearly non-existent, and Billy has approximately the intelligence of a six-week-old child.
- "Subject Zero"- a bizarre monstrosity kept in an underwater containment cell. Zero is a highly aggressive, twenty-foot-tall Zombie.
Major Discoveries
Arguably, Deep Science's greatest contribution to the study of the undead is the discovery of Phylaxocortin-X ("Phalanx"), a drug currently in development that may be able to slow the rate of infection.
