Jamiewrote a review of K2 Contour DB Snowboard Boot - Women's on December 5, 2009
This boot is ugly as hell!
I ride the DC women's Judge, which was one of the few boots at the time with the brand new boa system. I'm in need of new boots and I'm between the dc mora and k2 contour. But this boot is f-ing UGLY! Why can't they just have a plain black one? Purple leopard?!?! WTF?! The '80s died a long time ago! Next thing will be snowboard jackets with shoulder pads in them! Yuck!~

Can anyone identify this Orange and black beetle, please?
Many on our plum tree leaves, today July 30 2010, but nowhere else.
Similar to a ladybird. About 7mm long.
Is not disturbed when its leaf is plucked, and remains static.
Sometimes does a headstand, completely vertical.
There are holes in the leaves, but they don't seem to be eating them, although they are firmly attached.
Is it benficial, benign or harmful?
Ladybird pupa. Would not be surprised if it is Harlequin Beetle again...

In the '90s, celebrities weren't as popular and influential as they are today — especially when it comes to beauty endorsements. Now, a New York Times article shows that the age of celebrity-endorsed products is just heating up. According to the story, celebrities appeared in nearly 14 percent of ads last year — more than twice the number of those 10 years ago. To find out what's going on,
Why the sudden swell? To paraphrase James Carville, it's the economics, stupid: People are drastically more likely to buy something if it's hawked by a famous face. Jennifer Lopez's Glow, for instance, continues to earn tens of millions of dollars six years after its launch; her success paved the way for celebrity fragrances from Gwen, Halle, Britney, and more. Simply put, people want to buy a piece of their favorite celeb's lifestyle.
"Seven years ago, the belief among celebrities was that perfume was something you did at the end of a career," Bernd Beetz, the chief executive of Coty, told the Times. "Now it's different and seen as a key step in the start of a career."
Although most of you are tired of the celeb-scent trend, it's not slowing down. And in some cases, the celebrities need the marketing help. Rihanna's deal, for instance, got "Umbrella" played at Cover Girl displays, which helped propel her to the top of the charts. As we see more and more celebs pushing beauty, do you like it? Or do you wish the marketing would slow down?

Empowering deserving military families with educational support and opportunities.
According to Twitter, the 2014 Scotty Cameron PGA Stuff is now for sale but I guess you have to be a Scotty Club Member to purchase it?
yep.....and even then you have to be quick. the mid-mallet and mallet covers sold out within minutes.
It is offered to it's members first and then the public. The headcovers are sold out and they are way cool.
There is a fee to join the Scotty club is that correct? I'm a free member and email list subscriber but do not get many updates...
If you are talking about Club Cameron, I believe it is $93.
DB.......Yes...it runs around $100 a year......you get a headcover and another gift and headsup when these special headcovers come out......go to the scottycameron site and it will explain everything....I would wait until the first of the year and see what the new membership has to offer........but at least check it out.....I joined in Dec 2013 because they had a nice belt buckle and did not join in 2014.....will observe in 2015.....will be looking for another belt buckle........
I just went of the Cameron web site touting the new store/Gallery in southern California. For sale were a number of original one-off designs from Mr. Cameron. everyone one of them listed as SOLD. A total of $60,500 for 13 putters.. You gotta love this country!
Nothing new, if Scotty builds it, they will come.......All the gold in California is in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills
in somebody else's name, so if you're dreaming about California, It don't matter at all where you've played before
California's a brand new game.Tryin' to be a hero, winding up a zero, Can scar a man forever right down to your soul
Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright, 'Cause everything that glitters is not gold......
I haven't seen a membership package that I thought was worth $100 to join for the year. I'm with Chuck wait until next year maybe the membership packeage will have something you like.
Thanks for the info Chuck, I'm going to try to Demo the Dual Balance Futura X on a course somewhere soon. Anyone out there fond of the mallet style and have good feedback on this putter?

Carapace: TOGS, 2012
lacquer, wood, zipties, 72" x 16"
My work addresses the problem of building with paintings. With modular construction as the central quotation, I use panels and pigment as "prefab" systems that create new spatial relationships within existing architectures. Bent, Carapace, and Rest are a series of modular paintings derived from the concept of quick-assembly housing and furniture. They provide a flexible system that allows a single body of paintings to take on a variety of formations.
By using media that are more typical of industrial applications the work suggests my own self-identification as a middle class woman who happens to deal in the world of ideas. Some of these ideas are:
1. Repetitive work like drilling, pouring, sanding, and measuring is the labor of industry and art-making is an industrious job.
2. It is possible that repetitive honing by hand may imbue a work with more humanity than a large painterly gesture.
3. You can build something big from small parts (or cover large distances by taking small steps).
4. Color is delightful and beautiful.
5. Connecting walls with zip ties and hobby brackets is not stable… but not unstable either, because in a gallery the work has its own force field.
6. I am committed to the idea of mutual generosity between the artist and viewer.

Using the Nikon D850 for Action and Sports Photography
Latest Camera Reviews
Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 Review
Nikon D850 for Action: DX Crop Mode
You've got to get close to the action, right? Here's where the high-resolution really comes into play. In the DX crop mode you'll get pictures at a totally useable 19.4-million-pixels with a 1.5x magnification factor of Nikon's full-frame lenses. That's almost the same resolution as the D500 and D5, which have 20.9MP.
We used the Nikon AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 ED VR II lens for most of our action pictures, which in the DX crop mode becomes a 135-300mm f/2.8. Going one step further, we attached a 2x teleconverter. With this setup, we have a relatively portable and cost efficient 270-600mm f/5.6 lens!
Furthermore, in the DX (APS-C format) crop mode the AF array covers virtually the entire frame - that's how wide the coverage is. Most AF points are the more sensitive cross-type down to f/8, so the best AF accuracy is possible in DX crop mode. In short, the DX crop mode extends the possibilities with full-frame lenses.
That concludes our look at using the Nikon D850 for sports and action photography. Take a look at our full Nikon D850 review and check out our Using the Nikon D850 for Portrait Photography article to find out more about this great camera.


text: I know for a 100% fact, that last year when Ford and GM had the employee discounts, i was at a dealer, happened to be on a weekend vacation in Richmond , VA, it was Fords very LAST day of incentives and i looked at a 2005 Longbed fx4 Ford F350 superduty, extended cab, 6.0L powerstroke, 5speed auto trans, had the lariat package even, the sticker was $45,xxx almost 46k. The guy really wanted to sell this one of the lot, it had 6 miles on it, all still plastic wrapped etc. Had 2 tone paint job and all. He said with good credit, "which i dont have" i could be out the door for under 34k with tax/plates/misc fees, which comes out to im guessing $29,999 because the employee discount took the price down from almost 46k to 33k, there was some other $500 window off sticker from ford and also a dealer $2500 off price. IT came to $29,999. for a 46k truck. Now the 2006s went up at least 1000-1500 in price over last year and i dont see any incentives at all. What are people actually paying? 42k or can you get them 6k off sticker? Id like a xlt not really a lariat, inside is too fancy and ill mess that all up

It's the simple classic question, "Where to you get your ideas?"
So I've kind of developed a standard answer. "I get a little inkling of 'that would make a cool story' then I start on 'What If' until I've got a book.
That's true to some extent but usually the specifics are so weird it's hard to explain how I got from Point A--me walking through a living history museum, to Point B--art teacher running for her life and traveling through time.
Okay, I admit I've never written that one yet.
But any writer knows idea can come from strange places.
Petticoat Ranch, the honest truth of Petticoat Ranch is it was inspired by the third Dirty Harry movie The Enforcer (it was about vigilantes if you'll remember) and a Clive Cussler novel. Surely everyone can see the comparison. Throw in that my husband and I having four daughters when he's from a family of all boys and you've got yourself … a western romance novel?
I've got a book releasing in June called Nosy in Nebraska that contains three cozy mysteries. They came out in the Heartsong Presents Mysteries book club and now they've been bound into a collection that will be in book stores in June.
The first book in that anthology, Of Mice. . . and Murder was inspired by the year I spent working at my local newspaper. The smallest imaginable small town weekly. I also used a cool old house in my hometown as a model for the house my heroine inherits, plus I included my own fear of mice. I went far afield though with the dead body in the pantry and the handsome young carpenter who has left a high paying job in Chicago and moved to town to indulge his love of working with his hands.
The dead body--could happen. The big city rich guy in a small town? That is pure fiction. It NEVER HAPPENS.
I'll move on now to Montana Rose, coming in July. This is also a stretch to believe but I was inspired to write Montana Rose after reading Love Comes Softly. I love that book. Janette Oke's classic Christian romance. Montana Rose starts in a similar vein to Oke's, a pregnant widow in need of a husband in the west. That's pretty much where I abandoned all similarity. Mayhem ensued. I promise that, if I hadn't just told you that's where I got my idea, you'd never have guessed.
You can see that, even though this is a question we get asked all the time, non-writers really don't want to know the truth. It's just too weird. I got an idea for a murder mystery from a weird automated phone call my mother once got. And yes, I got an idea for a time travel mystery once while walking through a very deserted living history museum.
Buffalo Gal was inspired by a newspaper article. And my own rather obsessive interest in buffalo
The Clueless Cowboy is more than any other book a real 'Write What You Know' book, about a country girl. That's me without mentioning the mice phobia.
The Bossy Bridegroom well, we won't say what troublesome man inspired that. Best to leave that to the imagination.
So how about you? Where to you get YOUR ideas?
