Florida Georgia Line
Florida Georgia Line
with Nelly, Chris Lane
In country music, there are the rule breakers and the rule makers artists who defy trends to pave something new, something original, something maybe a little shocking at the time. Johnny Cash. Lynyrd Skynyrd. Alabama. Waylon Jennings. Garth Brooks. These are the forces who took the bones of an American musical legacy and burst through with their own unique voice leaving, in their wake, the seeds of the future. And now, on the tail end of a whirlwind few years that catapulted them to the top of the charts and to the center of fans' hearts across the world, is Florida Georgia Line, claiming their spot in the grand tradition of these Music Row renegades. How'd they do it? One simple mantra, really."ANYTHING GOES," says the Georgia half of FGL, Tyler Hubbard. "It says it all. No boundaries, no genre, no rules." Living according to their own doctrine, in their own completely singular creative space, has become the lifeblood of Florida Georgia Line. So much so, that when it became time make the follow-up to their smash trendsetting not to mention chart-topping, 2X Platinum debut HERE'S TO THE GOOD TIMES, there was only one option: ANYTHING GOES."There's a little something for everybody in there," says Hubbard. "If that helps shape where country is heading, or breaks down walls, then great. But it's just what Florida Georgia Line has always done."Since forming in 2010, Florida Georgia Line has taken the songwriter skills honed from their early days in Nashville and shredded them to bits, all while simultaneously using the deep roots of country music to build something new and totally thrilling. From the most raucous party moments to unexpected self-reflective odes, FGL is an unstoppable powerhouse only looking to answer to themselves, and, perhaps most importantly, their fans."We've always been comfortable doing something that may or may not be accepted," says Brian Kelley, the Florida side.And ever since the two met while attending Belmont University, they've been following that credo going from songwriting workrooms with nothing more than an acoustic guitar or two, to a headlining tour, crisscrossing the nation, collecting awards, bringing people up when they need to "Cruise," lifting them out when they're deep in the "Dirt."Except, of course, their music wasn't just haphazardly accepted: it was embraced with open arms. Their signature anthem "Cruise" was certified 8X platinum and became the best-selling Country single ever (according to SoundScan) and the remix with Nelly rocked both the charts and eager genre-taggers. With their Republic Nashville debut, FGL is the only artist in history to join legends Brooks & Dunn in achieving four back-to-back, multi-week #1 singles. They've taken the "anything goes" approach with them from day one never once, however, compromising their vision."We've built this from the ground up," says Kelley. "That's something we never take for granted. Tyler and I are hands on with it all, from set list to email. Everything we do, we have put the FGL stamp on it. This is our love and our passion. We run it as a businessand a party."And FGL is indeed a party. ANYTHING GOES is full of odes to the good times, from the twang-reggae "Sun Daze," to the wickedly delicious "Good Good" to the rowdy title track that's both rock and bluegrass. But that doesn't mean there aren't more serious, sincere moments: take the lead single "Dirt," for one."It's a little unexpected, sure," says Hubbard. "But I think we we're at a spot in our life where we wanted to show that side to people. It's how we started as songwriters. We felt it was time to release something like that." The fans agreed: it's already been certified platinum for over one million downloads sold and topped both Country radio charts to become their fifth #1 single.It's some personal moments and milestones marriage, engagements, loss and mourning that spurred some of ANYTHING GOES' contemplative notes, like "Angel" or "Like You Ain't Even Gone." But it's all part of FGL's mission to show a complete package to their fans, and to be with them at every moment in their lives, from the good to the bad."We like to be serious, and we like to take people to church on a Wednesday night in our live set," says Hubbard. "We like to have songs that mean something, that make you feel something. And, of course, we like to have it be party."Adds Kelley, "you can tell by listening that we felt no pressure. We wanted to push ourselves lyrically and vocally. It's very evident in the sound and the vibe. We took the confidence that country radio and the fans gave us, and made it into something that is pure FGL."From coast to coast with national TV appearances, the FGL machine has been rolling nonstop, and sees no sign of slowing down. At the core, is the brotherhood between best friends and creative partners Hubbard and Kelley theirs is a bond that exists past the musical realm. At the same time, they love to embrace the most thrilling minds working in Nashville today as writing partners, and recruited names like Rodney Clawson, Ross Copperman, Dallas Davidson, Chris Tompkins and Chris DeStefano to help pen the hits on ANYTHING GOES."The biggest thing for us was just staying in the creative zone," says Kelley. "From the best writers in town, to a producer (longtime collaborator Joey Moi) who is like a wizard on steroids. Nothing was stopping us. This record is a representation of exactly where we are in our lives. Want to know me and Tyler more? Just listen to ANYTHING GOES."And, of course, they kept those country music renegades Cash, Alabama, Skynyrd, Jennings top of mind. But like those brilliant creative outlaws before them, the best way they could pay tribute to the rule-breaking tradition is just by being completely themselves."When you get in a creative space and you know your influences, that's when you let your natural talent come out in ways that are organic," says Kelley. "That's when the freshness comes."Fresh, new: that's ANYTHING GOES a new force for Nashville, a new life for country music. And a duo that is totally unafraid to take risks and innovate, every step of the way."There are party moments, there's loss, there are odes to amazing times on ANYTHING GOES," Kelley adds. "Just lots of real life. Now THAT is country music."

Chinese/American singer, actor, and director Wang Leehom has landed the lead role in "The Annihilator", an upcoming comic book movie that will be based on an original creation by comic book legend Stan Lee.
"The Annihilator" has long been in the works, with Lee coming up with the character and going in development with it as far back as 2011. "The Bourne Legacy's" Dan Gilroy is writing the script, which will find Wang playing "a young Chinese expatriate named Ming, who must choose between remaining in prison or enlist in a secret US super soldier program. After a grueling gauntlet of tests and experiments, Ming survives thanks to his extreme resolve, gained as a result of his family's tradition of practicing Qijong and martial arts."
Basically, he becomes a Chinese superhero and fights crime and, we suspect, uphold the national honor of China. Or something. The film is a co-production between Stan Lee's Pow Entertainment banner and the Chinese state-run National Film Capital, which basically means the Chinese Government is funding part or most of the movie.
Hey, gotta get that cash wherever you can, right?
Wong is a pretty accomplished fellow, starting his career as a singer before parlaying that into acting, with appearances in "Moon Child" and Ang Lee's "Lust, Caution". In 2010 he directed his first film, the romantic comedy "Love in Disguise", which he also starred.
He's also currently co-starring in Michael Mann's "Cyber", starring Thor.

Waiakea's Kimura wins BIIF title
KEAAU — Talk about friendly fire.
Waiakea's Lindsey Kimura had just finished up a grueling day of shooting when she saw cause for concern. Unaware of anyone's score, Kimura looked to her left and noticed that teammate Karise Kuroda was running out of time.
"She was going down to the very last second and I was freaking out," Kimura said. "I was so worried (for her). I was holding my breath for her to finish."
Kimura can exhale now. Her friend made it, and little did she know it at the time, but Kimura has just wrapped up the Big Island Interscholastic Federation air riflery championship.
The two juniors were inseparable Saturday at Koai'a Gym from start to finish. They hung out before the finals started, they competed side by side and encouraged each other through the double portions of three shooting events, then they fittingly finished 1-2 atop the leaderboard.
Kimura shot seven bull's-eyes in the final event (kneeling) to overtake Kuroda 519-513.
"We talk to each other through the whole thing," Kimura said. "I was actually really nervous. Really, really, really nervous. We were trying to calm each other down. I thought we had the same score."
Nobody was in striking distance of Waiakea's Justin-Joe Gray. The junior continued the boys team's strong legacy by distancing himself from the field.
Lindsey Kimura, meanwhile, extended a family legacy. Her older sister, Megan Kimura, a 2012 Waiakea graduate, was the two-time defending champion.
Kimura set the tone for her season with a personal best at Kamehameha to start the year. Competitor's scores dropped a bit Saturday in muggy conditions, but Kimura, the top seed, was again the most consistent.
"I feel like I do well at Kamehameha for some reason," she said. "I don't know why."
That could bode well for her at the Hawaii High School Athletic Association championships, which will be held Tuesday at Koai'a Gym.
Waiakea's Crystal Rances (505) was third, while Hilo's Caryn Okamoto (505) kept the Warriors from sweeping the top four spots. Rances won a tiebreaker because she made more bull's-eyes (8-5).
Waiakea's Kellie Iwasaki (502), who will defend her state championship on Tuesday, was fifth.
"It's up to us represent the Big Island," Kimura said. "It's not so much about winning (individually), it's about getting the team scores. It's a team effort when it comes to states.
Kuroda led after each of the first two events (prone, standing), but she finished BIIF runner-up for the second consecutive year. She lost on the final shot last year. This time, she got off to a bad start during kneeling.
"My first paper was junk, the second one I picked it up and did way better. I don't think the time (had an effect).
"I didn't screw up like last year. It's OK."
Waiakea churns out quality shooters like few schools in the state, but perhaps no participant has improved more than Gray.
While most shooters failed to reach their average Saturday, Gray surpassed his with a 534.
"He was cool under pressure," Waiakea coach Terence Moniz said.
In doing so, Gray filled a void for a Warriors squad that graduated all four of its shooters last season.
"I grew up. I felt calm and focused and followed our coaches," he said. "The boys on the line were cheering each other on. It was a team effort.
"I had a couple of bad shots, but others made up for them."
Waiakea's Abraham Sylvester (514) and Tyler Aburamen (506) took second and third, while Konawaena's Josiah Lerback (503) and Kealakehe's Matt Silva (501) rounded out the top five.

By way of introduction I am Wendy
Mar 21, 2002 - 1:37 am
I am so sad. My heart breaks for Wendy's family. This was so unexpected. When I saw the word "final" in the above post, I had this overwhelming feeling and knew. I cannot understand this. She did so well following surgery and if anyone was still full of fight, it was Wendy!
I plan to send my heartfelt condolences to her husband. Following that, I won't be round for a while. It's too much for me to handle right now. We've lost two very dear and much admired sister's in such a short span of time. Tiger's passing was hard but Wendy's passing is shocking. She was a wonderful person and was just with us, sharing her strength and admirable spirit...and now she's not.
I love all of you very much. I care about all of you very much and I am so grateful to all you've shared with me over the past 7 or 8 months. We've come to know one another, very well in some cases, but it's just too much. You all mean so much and I can't bear the thought of losing anyone else. Perhaps this places me in the light of being weak or selfish? I don't know. Simply that I'm overwhelmed at the moment and need time to internalize all this and find my way.
I know that all of you share the sadness and please know that my thoughts are with you in this difficult time for us all.
Love, light and laughter,
Mar 23, 2002 - 4:31 pm
I share your feelings and have always found this site to be of comfort and support. Tiger and Wendy are now gone and I feel like I have been in a fantasy world where everybody who has posted will live happily ever after but I know that is not realistic and my own journey has been like a dream and the passing of these two very courageous ladies has made me open my eyes and take my cancer more seriously. God Bless you and know that your feeling are not selfish they are human.
Mar 21, 2002 - 5:10 am
Dear Friends,
I am going to send a note to Wendy's husband - he as kind as she was to take the time for this update when his heart must be breaking. I am typing through my tears.
She seemed so coherent when updating us on her condition. In my mind is the thought that better to do nothing and have a few more weeks that way. Anyone else have thoughts. Another of mine, was it poor nursing care AFTER successful surgery. Two people dies at Mt. Sinai in New York in liver transplants because of this - poor followup after surgery.
But Wendy had some very serious problems and was so brave. I see my oncologist today.
Love to you all,
Mar 21, 2002 - 1:21 pm
Dear Friends,

Ogden Police Adding Escape Hybrids as Patrol Vehicles
13 May 2007
The Standard-Examiner. The Ogden, Utah police force is adding Ford Escape Hybrid SUVs as patrol vehicles.
"We currently spend $176 weekly to fuel a traditional patrol vehicle, and because much of that vehicle's time is spent at low speeds through the city streets or at idle, reducing those costs and increasing efficiency was certainly a concern," [Richard Brookins, the city's fleet manager] said. "I just had no idea it would make this much of a difference. It not only burns less fuel but it helps us keep the air cleaner in Ogden."
Brookins said it's too early to tell what weekly fuel costs will be for the Escape, but according to Ford, the hybrid has a range of 500 miles per tank of gas and gets up to 36 miles per gallon. By comparison, Ford Crown Victoria patrol vehicles, being used by the department, get about 13 mpg, he said.

Australia v Argentina, Rugby Championship
Deans wary of Henry factor
ESPN Staff
September 14, 2012
Graham Henry will be on Argentina's side for the game © PA Photos
Australian boss Robbie Deans will come up against an old foe Graham Henry when his team faces the Pumas on Saturday and he is aware that Henry will be looking to utilise all of his rugby nous to get one over the Wallabies once again.
Former All Blacks coach Henry is currently acting as a technical advisor to Santiago Phelan's Argentinean side and he will be keen to ruffle a few Australian feathers when the pair come face to face on the Gold Coast at Skilled Park.
Henry last faced Australia in the semi-finals of the 2011 World Cup and with Argentina receiving widespread acclaim for their impressive performances in the Rugby Championship to date, they will harbour some hope of causing a massive upset against the injury-plagued Australians.
Deans is currently a man under pressure with back-to-back defeats against the All Blacks tempered slightly by their win over South Africa last weekend and he is only too aware of the man sitting with the opposition coaches.
"Henry knows us well obviously," Deans said. "I'm sure he's imparting that knowledge and I'm sure they are enjoying gaining it."
But while Argentina will have a good knowledge of the Australian side, thanks in part to Henry, the Wallabies are coming up against a relatively unknown quantity. The pair last met in 2003 and fly-half Quade Cooper admits that they have been doing some video based revision ahead of the meeting on Saturday.
"There's been a lot of tape-watching this week for a lot of the boys," Cooper said. "We don't know much about them and no one in the team, except for Sharpey, has had the opportunity to play against them.
"Their unpredictability is a big strength... and also their forward pack. They're definitely a team we're not taking lightly at all. They're going to throw a lot at us."

text: Greetings from Fort Wayne, IN! I've been visiting the site and borrowing data for just over a year now and decided to return the favor by signing up and sharing as well. I began smoking on a very poorly designed Char Broil charcoal grill approx. 2 years ago. Earlier this month I picked up an 18.5" Weber Smokey Mountain brand new and assembled (albeit incorrectly) from a local Wal Mart. It was on clearance for $100 off because it was "last year's model". After one seasoning run with a pound of bacon I've had three very successful smokes on it and looking forward to more! I work full time and travel all over the US so I look forward to being home on the weekends and barbecuing while enjoying time with my wife and two young daughters. Today is another rather warm day for February in the mid-west (~40° F) so I've got two pheasant breasts and a whole chicken headed for the smoker later today.

Full disclosure: I am very partial to "Burning Up," perhaps irrationally so. But I'll admit that adding Stevie Wonder on keyboards and vocals does make the song slightly more credible, whereas adding the Jonas Brothers to "Superstition" does not do the same. Still, this is the rare Grammy-manipulated mismatched pairing where the artists actually seem to enjoy being around each other.
Grade: B

text: Willy Simonsen in 1963.(Photo credit: Aftenposten/Scanpix) The marine electronics world lost a pioneer with the passing of Willy Simonsen on December 4, 2003. Simonsen, who was 90 years old, was the co-founder and driving force behind Simrad, a company that is today part of the Kongsberg Group, the world's largest manufacturer of marine electronics. It was in 1947 in postwar Norway that Simonsen joined with John Mustad (of Mustad fishhook fame) to form Simonsen Radio AS in Oslo, Norway. In the beginning, the partners focused on manufacturing high quality radio telephones. Within a few years, the company expanded into development and production of echo sounders and sonars for commercial and military use, gaining a worldwide reputation for quality and superior technology. In 1957, the company opened an office in Horten, Norway and officially changed its name to Simrad, a combination of Simonsen and Radio. Simonsen headed the company he helped form for 21 years, leaving in 1968. He had grown his company from a handful of men into a world-leading manufacturer with 500 people (today the Kongsberg Group employs more than 4,000 worldwide). Looking back at Simonsen's life, it is interesting to see how his talents -- and unfolding world events -- combined to make him a seminal figure in marine electronics.As a scientist in Bergen when World War II came to Norway, Simonsen became actively involved in the underground resistance. He spearheaded a project to eavesdrop on German telephone communications between Oslo and Bergen and provide this information by radio to allied forces in England. He was arrested by the Gestapo in 1941, and was later moved to a hospital after intentionally swallowing a "sickness pill."Simonsen was rescued from the hospital by Norwegians wearing German military uniforms, and after escaping to England he worked in the Radio Production Unit of the British War Office. It was here that Simonsen developed a tiny shortwave radio receiver – dubbed the "Sweetheart – of which 50,000 were built and distributed to resistance forces around the world.By providing a communications link between scattered international resistance forces, Simonsen helped win the information war and turn the tide in favor of the allies. "Willy Simonsen was more than a marine electronics legend, he was a hero who used his communications skills to protect others at great risk to himself," said John Caballero, Vice President of U.S. subsidiary Simrad, Inc. "He will be missed by the entire industry."

President Barack Obama will continue his White House to Main Street tour Wednesday with stops in Iowa and Illinois. He's expected to speak in Quincy at about 4 p.m.
The president's day will begin with a tour of the Poet biorefining plant in Macon, Mo. There, he'll visit with farmers at that state's first ethanol plant and meet with employees to talk about what they're experiencing in the current economy.
Later, it's off to the Oakley-Lindsay Center in Quincy for a town hall. Officials haven't given a firm number of tickets to be made available, but have said they're on a first-come, first-served basis.
In Quincy, President Obama will deliver a speech on reforming Wall Street.
Gov. Pat Quinn and Illinois Treasurer and Democratic Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias are expected to be among the attendees.
On Tuesday, Obama criticized Senate Republicans for continuing to block debate on a bill that would impose greater financial controls on the financial industry.
Speaking at a town hall meeting in Ottumwa, Iowa, the president said that it's one thing to oppose reform, but it's not right for the GOP to be against even discussing it.
He said the American people deserve an "honest debate" on the bill.

Two New York professionals, Carol Anne Riddell and John Partilla, caused a firestorm when they shared their love story with the New York Times "Vows" column. The reason? Both of them were married to other people when they met, and the foursome were all friends at one time. Critics call them homewreckers and say the New York Times was using scandal to sell papers. What do you think?

A U-turn looms over new planning rules for the New Forest amid warnings they will create "ghost villages" full of holiday homes.
Planning minister Nick Boles suggested that the Government would think again after protests over proposals to allow barns to be turned into homes without planning permission in national parks.
Critics claim the relaxation of planning rules could have a devastating impact on the Forest's economy.
A decision was expected this month but the Daily Echo understands it has been delayed, suggesting a climbdown will follow.
Last night the potential U-turn was welcomed by the National Park Authority (NPA), which has led protests against the new rules.
Cllr Pat Wyeth chairman of the NPA's planning and development control committee, said the Forest was a special case, adding: "We've got an awful lot of barns and if many of them are converted into homes we could lose our farming economy."
Fellow NPA member Maureen Holding said: "If we urbanise the Forest we will lose our countryside and our visitors."
Last year the NPA said the new rules could damage attempts to limit new housing in the four defined New Forest villages of Ash-urst, Brockenhurst, Lyndhurst and Sway. It also warned that the move threatened the Commoning system, which allows villagers to release their ponies, cattle and donkeys on to the open forest.
In a submission to the Government the NPA said: "This proposal would seriously undermine many of our long-established planning policies.
"It risks losing the essential infrastructure (farm buildings and grazing land) necessary to support Commoning, which in turn could threaten the very landscape that, as a National Park, we were set up to protect."
During a Commons debate, New Forest East MP Julian Lewis said ministers should let national parks continue to make their own planning decisions. He added: "The proposal that national parks such as the New Forest should be open to this sort of unregulated development is preposterous."
In reply Mr Boles suggested that national parks could retain the right to require planning permission.
He told MPs: "The Government recognises that national parks and areas of outstanding natural beauty are so called for a reason and have a special status. It is a status we must respect."
The Country Landowners Association (CLA) has lobbied for looser planning rules on barn conversions and welcomed the proposals as a boost for the rural economy.

What will cameras be like 20 years from now? Here's one vision of the future, the Canon Wonder Camera, rolled out today at The World Expo 2010 in Shanghai. It's more like a super-high resolution camcorder than a camera, and it'll be able to shoot circles around today's cameras. Too bad it looks like a glorified hairdryer.
Using this camera looks like a no-brainer.
Canon makes broad claims, saying everything will be in focus all the time, and even when you are shooting images with enormously long zooms, the camera can keep the frame perfectly stable. It'll shoot thousands of frames at a time, letting you choose the one still that's perfect, or keep them all in a sequence as a video.
The camera will shoot such high-resolution photos, later on your computer you'll be able to select which part of the frame you'd like to use, with no discernible loss of sharpness. So that means all you need to do is point your camera in the general direction of what you'd like to capture, and the camera's ultra-high resolution gives you nearly unlimited editing capabilities.
Sounds far-fetched, but Canon had a demonstration unit on hand, albeit one that required a bulky backpack to make it work. While a lot of this was probably smoke and mirrors, still, it looks like the technology is far enough along to be available much sooner than 20 years from now.

According to a report issued by Swedish research firm Berg Insight, shipments are forecasted to reach 700 million units in 2016 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 87.8 percent. The global rise in smartphone adoption is also driving higher attach rates for other wireless connectivity technologies in handsets including GPS, Bluetooth and WLAN. Additionally, declining costs are set to enable broader integration in the feature phone segment that is rapidly gaining smartphone-like functionality.
The report has shown that the attach rate for GPS among GSM/WCDMA/LTE handsets reached 31 percent in 2011 and grew to 38 percent for all air interface standards. Additionally, shipments of WLAN-enabled handsets have doubled annually in the past four years and the attach rate increased to 33 percent in 2011. WLAN connectivity in handsets enables a range of use cases including offloading data traffic from increasingly congested mobile networks, media synchronisation and indoor navigation services. However, periodic calibrations using satellite and wireless network signals are necessary to compensate for the low data accuracy and high drift obtained from low cost sensors used in handsets today.

Time To Shine
Connecticut was able to get away with a subpar defensive effort in its first-round victory at the Paradise Jam. The second-ranked Huskies likely could not withstand a second such lapse Sunday when they play No. 17 Miami in the semifinals in the Virgin Islands.
The Huskies (3-0) held both Western Carolina and Hartford below 35 percent shooting from the field in lopsided victories to start the season. But Connecticut had few answers for La Salle on Friday before pulling away for an 89-81 win as the Explorers shot 50 percent - the best by any Huskies opponent since George Mason also made half its shots in beating them to reach the 2006 Final Four.
Oddsmakers from SBG Global have made Connecticut–5 point spread favorites (NCAAB Odds) for today's game, (View Matchup). Current public betting information shows that 50% of bets for this game have been placed on Connecticut–5 (View NCAAB Bet Percentages).
"It was just too easy for them," said UConn coach Jim Calhoun, who was forced to use a zone defense to slow the Explorers.
Offensively, Connecticut had few problems, shooting 54.7 percent. Freshman Kemba Walker came off the bench to score 23 points, while Jeff Adrien added 22 and 14 rebounds. But Calhoun singled out praise for point guard A.J. Price, who played despite the pain of an abscessed tooth to contribute 12 points, four assists and three steals.
"He played in an awful lot of pain. But I liked the way he played, liked the way he pushed the game," Calhoun said of Price, who sat out the win over Hartford on Monday due to an ankle injury.
The senior is expected to play after getting the tooth drained Saturday.
Miami (2-0) has some good offensive options of its own in Jack McClinton and Dwayne Collins, and perhaps a developing one in senior guard Lance Hurdle, who came off the bench to score 13 points in a 70-60 win over Southern Mississippi on Friday.
"It's great to be back with my teammates. ..." said Hurdle, who missed Miami's opener with a high ankle sprain. "The adrenaline was flowing. I felt like a kid on Christmas."
McClinton, who scored 17.7 points per game in helping Miami to the second round of the NCAA tournament last season, also had 13 points, but coach Frank Haith thought his star guard was "pressing" too much. McClinton went 4-for-9 from the field, including 2-of-6 from 3-point range, but also committed five of Miami's 13 turnovers.
Collins finished with 14 points and nine rebounds, sinking eight of 10 free throws as the Hurricanes amassed a 22-12 edge at the foul line.
Connecticut leads the all-time series 15-8, and won 76-63 in the last meeting on Feb. 18, 2004, when Miami was still a member of the Big East. The Hurricanes went 6-7 against the Huskies while the schools were conference rivals from 1997-2004.
The winner of this game will play the winner of the No. 25 Wisconsin-San Diego game in the championship on Monday, while the losers will play for third place.

Hmmm... one broker told me no you can't get an interest only mortgages anymore, the other said yes no problem - in fact all of the interest rates don't change whether you're on a repayment of interest only mortgage.
Has anyone here got an interest only mortgage recently with a roughly 10-20% mortgage?
(p.s. I'd be investing the difference between the repayment amount and the interest only amount, so please don't divert my thread by telling me I'm a financially reckless parasite!)

Colorado Cooperatives - What Are They & How Do They Work?
Colorado cooperatives, or co-ops, have been in existence for a long time serving people and businesses for the betterment of the community. Cooperatives are Colorado businesses owned by the individuals who use them. Depending on classification, they either provide certain services or foods to those within the community. Those who are a part of a cooperative benefit by helping, not only themselves, but others as well.
They provide necessary components to the economy. For instance, farming cooperatives are controlled and owned by the user, typically farmers. Farmers can join what are known as marketing cooperatives and charge more for the products but less for their marketing, attracting business. Those buying the products benefit on the fact that they are purchasing fresher, healthier products.
Colorado Cooperatives - Group Classifications
Colorado Co-ops are classified into groups such as;
- Marketing Cooperatives
- Purchasing Cooperatives
- Service Cooperatives
- Food Cooperatives
Within these classifications you can find more specialized cooperatives in Colorado such as;
- child care
- health
- utilities
- credit union
- housing
- worker
- agriculture
- dairy
Each of these offers inexpensive alternatives to those who are a member of the cooperative. Members have the option of electing a board of directors. The board of directors oversees activities inside the cooperative.
Consortium child care cooperatives are also offered within industrial parks. This helps parents in CO place their child within a daycare that is relatively close to their job and often at a more affordable rate than most daycares. Though it may be the businesses who deliver the initial funding to begin this kind of service, it still revolves back to those that own the daycare electing their own board of directors. It's the owner of the business and its members that supply all the decisions and ultimately choose how it is ran.
A good example of how utility cooperatives can work for their members is Craw-Kan Telephone Cooperative Company. This company delivers telephone service to its members who hold shares within the company and at the end of each and every year each member receives a portion of that profit sharing. This not only entices others to become members and pay their bill on time regularly, but also benefits both the company and those that they provide service to.
Colorado electric and telephone cooperatives provide their services to people while hearing members voices. The members are able to voice their concerns and suggest what they need changed as it is them who choose just what goes on within that cooperative.
Membership in Colorado Cooperatives
Members of a Colorado cooperative have a large list of responsibilities that they must follow. They must ensure that every one of the applicable laws are met and followed by its members. They must appoint or removed directors on an appropriate basis. Members must know what their cooperative provides and acquaint them self with services in order to better serve others. You must be able to meet customer satisfaction to be able to run efficiently, effectively and profitably.
There are times when cooperatives in Colorado must choose to merge with other businesses in order to expand their services or dissolve on the grounds that there's not enough supply and demand of their services. The definitive role of the members can be difficult and yet it is necessary that they are well informed and able to make those decisions.
Cooperatives in Colorado are an important part of people's everyday lives. By providing services and goods to their members, they are offering a mutually beneficial option. Without cooperatives, nearly 26 million people in America would be without the electric services that these places provide. Over 100 million Americans would be hard pressed to find affordable goods and services and all the net worth that these cooperatives pull in together would be lost.
It is essential to have these in our lives in order to maintain a balance between affordable and quality in our lives. People are brought together in a cooperative group in order to run a business that will provide quality services to those in need while keeping the right to make decisions about their company as a whole. That is what makes Colorado cooperatives so unique among the rest in the world today.

The following commentary does not necessarily reflect the views of AgWeb or Farm Journal Media. The opinions expressed below are the author's own.
The Hueber Report is a grain marketing advisory service and brokerage firm that places the highest importance on risk management and profitable farming.
Fundamentals – It seems that anymore we leap from awaiting one government report to the next and to begin this week, traders are looking out to the Wednesday Supply/Demand estimates. The wheat market is higher this morning and would appear to be reflecting the lighter than hoped for rains that fell to the west of over the weekend and a shift back to cooler temperatures on the overnight weather updates. That said, after two weeks of declining markets, we are probably entitled to at least a short corrective bounce.
For the Wednesday report, the average trade estimate for ending stocks is 583 million bushels vs. the March estimate of 558. The range of estimates are 553 to 625 million.
Estimates for todays export inspections sit between 15 and 20 million bushels.
Technical – After touching down to complete a 38.2% retracement at 6.58 ½ on Friday, May wheat bounced and this morning we have been able to rally enough to post a higher high for the first time in the past 7 sessions. I would like to think that we have room for 3 to 5 days for rebound action with potential to bounce back into the 6.83 to 6.91 retracement range, for what should be a B wave correction. Cycle dates line up for the 10th /11th and strength into then could present a selling opportunity.
Fundamentals – The reversal higher posted last Friday did not carry-through into this morning but the pressure is pretty insignificant at this point. I have to believe the shift back to cooler temperatures on the overnight weather updates as well as predictions for additional moisture falling across the south should be supportive but we could be poised to just tread water between now and Wednesday.
As I have commented previously, it would not be surprising to see the USDA boost both exports and residual usage for corn by a combined 100 million taking the ending stock below 1.4 billion. For the report, the average estimates for corn ending stocks stand at 1.403 billion with a range of estimates between 1.306 to 1.478. World corn ending stocks are estimated to be 157.72 MMT with a range of 156.5 and 159.2. Last month this number stood at 158.47. For the South American production, Brazil is expected to come in at 69.66 MMT, down .35 MMT and Argentina at 23.95 MMT, down .05 MMT.
After those figures are released the focus should almost be entirely about weather but as we have learned many a time, it is difficult to generate extended swings particularly to the upside related to spring weather. We can just put the crop in the ground too fast.
Export inspection for least week are expected to be in the 35 to 45 million bushel range.
Technical – May corn posted an outside higher reversal last Friday but found no follow-through strength overnight. That said, short-term oscillators are oversold and we remain well entrenched in the overall uptrend and could very well continue to hold around this 5.00 level for several more days or even make another attempt to stab into higher highs. That said, after 3 months of rally, we are in need of a corrective pull back. After today, the next cycle date ahead sits on the 14th.
Fundamentals – Bull spreads are at play again this morning in the beans trade, which would seem to be a very normal reaction with the situation we are confronted with for now. China continues to work at selling back previous purchases now out through the summer months and South American cash markets continue to slide lower. I understand there will be a Brazilian cargo that will come into the gulf this week for unload.
The USDA will need to be shifting a few numbers around on Wednesday's report and I suspect both exports and imports will be boosted. The average trade estimate for the ending stocks is 139 million bushels, which would be 6 million below the March estimates. The range of estimates runs from 125 to 147 million. World ending stocks are expected to be down .50 MMT to 70.14 with a range of 68.5 to 71.9. Finally, the average estimate for the Brazilian crop is 87.43, down just over a million from last month and Argentina at 54.15 up .15.
Export inspection as estimated to run between 8 and 12 million bushels.
Technical – May beans have witnessed a little two-sided action this morning and for now, remain trapped into our new trading range between 14.60 and 15.00. Short-term oscillators are at the oversold zone so I do not suspect that we are ready to flush to the downside yet and will look for choppy trade congestion trade at least through Wednesday and easily into the next cycle date on Friday. As I have commented previously, we could be in-store for choppy somewhat sideways action between now and the 270-calendar day cycle count that sits out on the 5th of May.
Soybean Oil – May bean oil has seen two-sided overnight trade as well but so far remains within Friday's trading range. Short-term oscillators are quite overbought and teetering on the edge of turning lower and it would appear that we have room for additional downward corrective action. There should be solid support down around the 40.60/40.30 zone but a close below the lower end would open the door for a push down to 38.80. The next cycle date ahead is on the 11th.
Soybean Meal – Two-sided overnight action in meal but this market is looking a bit more supportive than oil. The daily oscillator is oversold and it would appear that we could be set for another attempt to push through the upper side and potentially a run into the 490/493 zone. Cycle dates ahead on the 10th/11th.
Cotton – Good two-side action in cotton as well and while it would appear that the bears have the upper hand right now, we remain within the current trading range of 93.75 to 90.50. My intermediate indicator continue to point lower and I do believe we will eventually push through the lower end but short-term we remain oversold and could stand to see a rebound first. The next cycle date ahead falls on the 17th.

Hello guys!!! It feels so good to be in the 'big apple' for yet another NY Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. The last time Because I am Fabulous was in NYC together as a team, was for the Fall 2012 collection showcase.
Thursday September 6, was the first day of the Spring 2013 showcase and the most anticipated day of Fashion week. It was when the world's media decamped on the stairs of the Lincoln city to snap editors, buyers, celebrities and fashion bloggers.
Fashion week is more then what's on the runway. Outside is where the action is.
The entire Lincoln center area was swamped with photographers. At first it seem like a daunting task to walk through the mountain of photogs but you get use to it every season.
All you need is your sunglasses and a big smile. Give them what they want and you will feel the love and the energy. My love Sai and I did just that :-).
What I'm wearing
Suit: CERRUTI (I like wearing suits at the opening show. Fashion week is a trade show. The 'Blue suit' is huge for fall and wearing it was a no brainier. Check my recent post on Midnight Blue for Fall.
Shirt: Calvin Klein
Tie/Socks: Briar Vintage Store (Philadelphia)
Bag GRAYSTONE CANVAS LOG CARRIER BY J.W. HULME/ Shoes: MCTAVISH Natural Wax Infused Leather (Thanks to the wonderful guys at Allen Edmonds Shoes for sending all these amazing man goodies to our New York Hotel) I love the fit, and I expected nothing less from a name like AE!!

In a statement issued this week, the president of the Bishops' Conference of Peru, Archbishop Miguel Cabrejos rejected the new "rapid divorce" law passed by Congress, saying it "does nothing to strengthen and fortify the family; on the contrary, it weakens it and results in its rupture or separation."
The archbishop recalled that everyone has the duty to "strengthen and fortify" the family "in harmony with the norms and principles proclaimed in Peru's constitution."
"We cannot forget that our constitution consecrates the defense of the human person and respect for his dignity as the supreme end of society and of the State; but the natural environment for the development of the person and his dignity will always be the family, which the State is committed to strengthening," he said.
Archbishop Cabrejos noted that civil marriage in Peru is a "contractual act" that must be strengthened before it is allowed to be dissolved, and therefore "the Public Ministry is part of the judicial process of conventional separation, because its purpose is to defend marriage as a stable institution and therefore it opposes these processes."
"The proposed norm, therefore, goes against the Constitution because it does not strengthen marriage and the family but rather weakens it, and no thought is given to the psychological and emotional damage to the children," he said.
Therefore, he went on, "true marriage is based not only on human norms that are changeable but on something transcendent that is: 'conjugal love'. What is this conjugal love? It is not only an emotion, a sentiment, but rather a personal, specific relationship between a man and a woman that requires surrender and reciprocal donation throughout life."
"People need to be conscious that entering into marriage and establishing a family is a very serious act of great responsibility, for which they should be dully prepared, keeping in mind that that marriage should be stable and lasting," the archbishop stated, adding that leaders must guarantee the stability of the family and of marriage.

HOUSTON - So much for Cecil Cooper's managerial debut with the Houston Astros.
Chris Duncan shook off an August slump with a three-run homer and an RBI single to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Astros 7-0 on Tuesday night, ruining Cooper's first game as Phil Garner's successor.
Garner was fired on Monday and replaced by Cooper after Houston limped to a 58-73 record. But the Astros looked like the same, floundering team with Cooper in charge, plagued by mediocre pitching and feeble hitting.
Duncan, meanwhile, snapped a 28-game home run drought with a three-run drive into the upper deck in the first inning off Houston starter Woody Williams (8-13). Duncan was hitting just .167 with only three RBIs this month before Tuesday's outburst.
Pirates 6-3, Reds 4-2
PITTSBURGH - Freddy Sanchez drove in five runs in the opener, then tripled and scored the winning run in the eighth inning of the second game to give the Pittsburgh Pirates a victory and doubleheader sweep that slowed the previously surging Cincinnati Reds.
The Reds had won six in a row and nine of 11, only to be swept by Pittsburgh in a doubleheader for the first time since September 2000. The Pirates have won 10 of 13 and are 17-10 in August, their most wins in a month since they had the same record in May 2004.
Sanchez tied a career high with five RBIs and hit his second career grand slam as the Pirates won the opener. cago going into the doubleheader, but dropped to eight back as the Cubs beat Milwaukee 5-3.
Phillies 4, Mets 2
PHILADELPHIA - Ryan Howard's two-run home run off Guillermo Mota in the 10th inning capped a late rally and led the Philadelphia Phillies to a win over the New York Mets.
Shane Victorino, who scored the tying run in the eighth on a pair of bizarre plays, opened the 10th with a bloop single off Mota (1-1). Then Howard hit a 1-2 pitch deep the opposite way into the left-field seats for his 35th homer, giving the Phillies wins in the first two games of this pivotal four-game series.
Brett Myers (3-5) pitched two scoreless innings to earn the win. The Phillies now trail the NL East-leading Mets by four games.
Marlins 4, Braves 3
MIAMI - Shuffling their rotation to line up John Smoltz to pitch against the New York Mets this weekend didn't work out too well for the Atlanta Braves.
After Smoltz fell behind early and the Braves rallied on Chipper Jones' two-run homer, Alejandro De Aza's 11th-inning sacrifice fly gave the Florida Marlins a victory over Atlanta.
Atlanta struck out 19 times as the Marlins - who have the worst record in the National League - won for just the second time in 14 games. The strikeouts matched a season high for the Braves, set July 18 in a 15-inning games against Cincinnati. These are only times Atlanta has struck out that many times in a game since 1978, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
Cubs 5, Brewers 3
CHICAGO - Jacque Jones hit a game-tying two-run double in the seventh and scored the go-ahead run on an error by reliever Scott Linebrink as the Chicago Cubs rallied to beat the Milwaukee Brewers.
The first-place Cubs scored four runs in the seventh to increase their lead over the Brewers in the NL Central to 21/2 games. St. Louis started play Tuesday night two games back.
The three-game series is the final meeting this season between the Brewers, who'd spent 125 days in first this season, and the Cubs, who have been tied for first or in sole possession of the lead since Aug. 17.
The slumping Brewers lost for the 11th time in 14 games.

The Kulikows Were Lucky, Pastoral Care for Russian
Germans in Augsburg Kulikows Hatten Glück Seelsorge für "Rußlanddeutsche"
Lehmann, Reinhold. "The Kulikows Were Lucky, Pastoral Care for Russian Germans in Augsburg Kulikows Hatten Glück Seelsorge für "Rußlanddeutsche." Wochenzeitung für das Erzbistum Freiburg, 21 July 1996.
Translation from German to English by Alice Morgenstern
Last year in August they took the train from West Kasachstan to Moscow and from there an aircraft to Frankfurt am Main, Germany: Julia Kulikow, her husband Victor and their four children. First they were sent to Hamm to a camp for Russian German immigrants, and then for the time being to some kind of hostel for refugees in Augsburg, where families can live before they find a proper home. At the moment they have one big room. The shower in the cellar only provides cold water. The kitchen and the toilet are on the floor. Cheap lodgings, three or four rooms for a large family are rare, and the Kulikows will have to wait for some time before they can live in a home of their own. A good part of the time is spent with language courses, the parents and the children of school age have to attend them. Mrs. Kulikow has a hard task to make ends meet when she goes shopping to the supermarket twice a week.
Mr. and Mrs. Schoch, Julia's parents, originally lived in Odessa, Ukraine, and lost their home there. When the German army occupied the south of the Soviet Union in 1941 during the Second World War, the Schochs' had to leave and were resettled in Poland (the Warthegau). Polish farmers were driven out of their farms over night, especially for the housing of the Germans. It was the time, when Polish children were separated from their parents and sent to Germany, "the Reich".
Only a few years later, due to the defeat of the German armies in Russia, members of the Schoch family found themselves again under the "protection" of the Soviet army. That meant a new migration to the Soviet Union, to Siberia, to forced labor camps and finally to Kasachstan, where father and mother met again and at last were able to make a modest living. A few years ago they could emigrate to Germany and came to Augsburg. Since last year their daughter Julia lives near them. Her husband Victor is a Russian, and hardly speaks German.
The Kulikows arrived with some summer clothing, bed sheets and some dishes and plates. Everything else they had to give away in Kaschstan. People are poor there and most of the Russian German "Aussiedler" came from that country .There are a lot of empty houses and left behind household utensi1s, and sometimes there are relatives left to take them. This is what happened to the Kulikow property.
The Kulikows, however, were lucky. In the center of Augsburg, where their present lodgings are, there is the Roman Catholic parish of St. Ulrich and Afra. Together with three other parishes, St. Anton, St. Max, and St. Simbert the parson and members of the church communities have found ways of reintegration of those late-comers from the former Soviet Union. That is how the first contacts were made.
20% of that group nominally belong to the Roman Catholic Church, but they do not know anything about church life in general, let alone that in Germany. They are anxious and shy; their former surroundings were totally different. Julia grew up in the country .The nearest church was 80 miles away. A "traveling" priest baptized her. Those clergymen tried to work under the communist regime and went from community to community, celebrating church services in people's homes. If you were German and a Catholic you were not really welcome in Kasachstan, you were considered a dissident and a spy, especially during the Stalin era. From the times of the "underground church" Mrs. Kulikow has kept a prayer-book consisting of a few pages containing the Lord's Prayer and a few church songs, that was all. There was nothing like a Bible, you could not even get it at the black market.
The "Aussiedler" often miss human understanding and reliable contacts. So, dubious sects are the first to make use of the situation. They are sometimes the first to turn up in the camps, provisional homes, and shake beliefs of people, beliefs based on a very small tradition. Ida Hosmann, the representative in the Augsburg office for pastoral welfare for the Russian Germans, knows many stories about grandmothers who practiced emergency baptism for their grandchildren and taught them the first prayers, the sign of the cross, and who prayed the rosary with them. Very often only these religious traces can be found.
There are also voluntary workers in Augsburg such as Mrs. Edeltraud Wohlfarth, who e.g. organizes singing groups for women. The church communities offer courses for believers: basic knowledge about the Holy Mass, Christian symbols, and so on. Priests go to the homes of the Aussiedler and bless them. At the moment, the most urgent problem is finding work for the newcomers. How could integration be possible without work? The Russian Germans are highly motivated and would take any work. But the trouble is that many of them do not know enough German, and there are also prejudices to overcome. What they do get are jobs that other people avoid, such as hard bodily work and nursing. But it is evident that women from the former Soviet Union know how to deal with the old and disabled. Often they were brought up in big families where great-grandparents and grandparents had to be looked after. In countries where medical care was fragmentary and often far too expensive, doctoring was left to the members of the family.
More than 95% of the annual quota of "Aussiedler" (200,000) come from the former Soviet Union, only very few from Romania, Hungary, the Czech Republic, or Yugoslavia. About 200, 000 will probably arrive annually during the next ten years. Returning to Germany has been made possible since 1987. It is considered the last great exodus of Germans from the vast regions of the Russian territories and the end of a peaceful pioneer-work for centuries. It began in the 17th century with German military experts and craftsmen. Most Germans followed the invitations of Catherine the Great, and after the Napoleonic wars of Tsar Alexander I they mainly settled in the Volga, and later in the Black Sea region. Hitler's attack against the Soviet Union had disastrous consequences for the Russian Germans. Defamed as spies of the so called "Fifth Column" they were often deported to Siberia and there died like flies. Their communities ceased to exist.
The project of the German Government to support the Russian Germans where they were, proved a failure. In many cases the money, millions of D-mark drawn from German taxes, was wasted. It is not surprising that people in search of a future wish to emigrate.
The greatest contingent of Germans comes from the independent Republic of Kasachstan. But that state had never provided a real chance for the Germans; they always considered themselves strangers and saw no future for their children, all the more so nowadays with increasing Islamic tendencies cropping up in public life.
Talks with "Aussiedler" prove that their fates, especially those of the older generation are widely unknown among the Germans. They were driven from their homes, deported, arrested, sent to forced labor camps, famine, terrorized, and still bear the marks of their sufferings. Many mourn for relatives. So parents and grandparents desire that along with them the younger generation emigrates to Germany. They have lost all hope that matters will improve in the East.
According to Ida Hosmann their readiness to integrate, to take up any work, their industry and reliability are considerably greater than in any other part of the population. On the other hand, they experience rejection and often discrimination.
Augsburg is the only diocese with a special representative for the spiritual needs of the Russian Germans. The experience gained there may be taken as a model for other German dioceses. Ida Hosmann and Edeltraud Wohlfahrth have been busy in special informative meetings explaining what they learned about the "Aussiedler". They answer questions such as: Who are the "Aussiedler", where do they come from, and why? They show the problems in Germany, such as feeling unwanted or rejected, the strangeness of the new existence, language difficulties, difficulties with writing, the problem how to find work, school problems, and problems with free time. Then the two women describe the conceptions of the Russian Germans of Christian faith and the church, and offer advice for other Roman Catholic parishes.
One thing is clear: the parish must take the initiative.
The "Aussiedler", members of a "grandmothers' Church" might not have seen a priest as yet and only have vague notions about "popes" of the Russian Orthodox clergy.

Halo creator Bungie has created a multiplayer juggernaut with its shooter series, and it intends to keep the trend alive with three maps that will be exclusive to the upcoming Halo: ODST, a stand-alone expansion built upon Halo 3.
The three exclusive maps are entitled "Heretic," "Longshore," and "Citadel," though at least one of those is familiar. "Heretic" is actually Halo 2 fan favorite map "Midship" redone for the Halo 3 engine, while a lone screenshot of "Citadel" looks like it could be a re-imagining of Halo 1's "Battle Creek."
A $60 title, ODST packs a new, Master Chief-less single-player campaign on one disc, and the full Halo 3 multiplayer experience on a separate disc, which will include all the game's downloadable maps to date in addition to the three aforementioned maps, which "you won't find anywhere else," in Bungie's words.
ODST drops on September 22 exclusively on Xbox 360.
"Longshore" is pictured above. For shots of "Heretic" and "Citadel," check Shacknews.

Thx I got the AUTOBOOT 100%
Printable View
Pick out the bits that suit.
Add Priiloader to 4.1U or 4.1E
The information for most of this guide is taken from several of Dogeggs excellent guides.
When you have updated to 4.1 and have checked at Wii icon bottom left of screen, Wii settings that you actually are, you can install the latest Priiloader.
You should also have HBC 1.0.6 latest version
If you have preloader remove it by installing your system menu.
Download 4.1E here, System Menu
Download 4.1U here, System Menu
Copy wad into SD\wad
Install with Wad manager
install IOS60-patched.wad - make sure you do this before you install Priiloader
Download here, IOS60 Patched
Copy wad into SD\wad
Install with Wad manager
Download here, Priiloader rev32
Copy directory to SD\apps
Get hacks.in file here,
Hacks.in all
Edit text file, use lines with 449 for 4.1U, 450 for 4.1E.
Copy hacks.ini file to root of SD card
Go into HBC and select Priiloader, then load.
Press + to install.
When finished select 'system menu hacks' in the Priiloader menu
To start with just enable
'skip disc update check' and the region free ones .
Autoboot = system menu
Return = system menu
To check Priiloader is working, power off, then on. You should go to system menu page.
Power off, then on, holding the reset button until Priiloader screen comes up.
Check you can exit to HBC.
Options, you set other enables.
You can set a file in the install file, i.e. USB loader GX, the .dol file should be in root of SD/USB
Set Autoboot =file
On power up GX screen will be displayed
I'll install previous preloader and see if this is the cause.
BTW: just a thought...could it be because I have my WAD installed on my HD partition that is causing this? It runs off the channel 100%.
So far, I've used the HackMii installer (v0.6) and Bannerbomb exploit (aad1f_v108) to install the Homebrew channel. I purchased the USB hard drive that showed to be the most reliable (Western Digital My Book Essential 1 TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive WDH1U10000N), based on the recommendations of this site.
I already purchased and backed up several games to isos because I am configuring this for my two kids to receive from Santa on Christmas morning and they love to scratch up DVDs.
I would really like to configure my kids Wii like you've done with yours and i have a few questions. Thanks in advance for the help!
First, I need to make sure I don't brick my kids Wii, because that would sorta ruin their Christmas. I heard that if you load a PAL game iso onto a NTSC system (and vice versa) it can be bricked... Is that true when using a USB loader app like USB Loader GX or just when loading a burned DVD from the disc drive? Is it advisable to use WiiBrickBlocker and/or RegionFrii to ensure I don't brick?
I assume USB Loader GX is the best option at this time, right? Will it work properly with ver 4.1u.
Can I use it with WiiFlow or is that the same thing as USB Loader GX?
I'm pretty unfamiliar with the prii loader app and how to get it to work... Which one should I use and is there a tutorial out there for it?
Again, thank you very much for your assistance. I really appreciate it!

Willie Nelson Provides Home for Two Neglected and Abused Horses
As the president of Farm Aid, it's no secret that Willie Nelson is a supporter of family farmers across the nation, and the country legend also recently spoke up in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement. But there's another — perhaps less championed — cause that Nelson cares deeply about, and that's making sure animals have a good home and are treated well. The 'Always on My Mind' singer recently rescued two neglected horses from an abusive environment.

Gloriana's Tom Gossin Shares Sweet Engagement Story
A few weeks ago, Taste of Country reported that Gloriana singer and guitarist Tom Gossin had popped the question to his now-fiancee Jaime Moffett. While we knew that Gossin revealed the news at a show at the Rome Capital Theater in upstate New York, we didn't yet know all the little details about the ring, what led Gossin to take the next step and exactly how the proposal played out. In a recent interview with Country Weekly, the singer dished on all the juicy details, and now we're able to pass them along to you.
Taylor Swift to Profit Big Thanks to Success of 'The Hunger Games'
'The Hunger Games' premiere finally came and went, and according to Forbes, the film did even better at the box office than originally expected. And while this means major profits for Lions Gate Entertainment, it also means hefty dividends for the musicians behind the film's soundtrack, including names like Taylor Swift, the Civil Wars, Miranda Lambert and the Secret Sisters. In the end, it looks as though Swift will take home the biggest paycheck, since she has two songs on the record.
Lauren Alaina Brings Her 'Georgia Peaches' to the 'Today' Show

Blake Shelton Dives Further Into Bromance With Fellow 'The Voice' Coach Adam Levine
A couple weeks ago we joined in on the fun, reporting about 'The Voice' coaches Blake Shelton and Adam Levine and their budding bromance. And while Shelton still playfully jokes that he'd like to make out with his Maroon 5-fronting co-judge, it seems Levine has just one request we need to take into consideration: He's not too keen on the whole "bromance" word. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, the two, who are good friends in real life, talked about their friendship, and Levine requested a ban on a certain b-word.
Lady Antebellum's 'We Owned the Night' Gets Pop Makeover by fun.
Who doesn't love a great cover? We thought we'd seen it all when Willie Nelson covered Coldplay's 'The Scientist,' but then indie pop group fun. released their own acoustic version of Lady Antebellum's 'We Owned the Night' on SiriusXM (see below), and we admit we're a little smitten.
Carrie Underwood Won't Spill Personal Details on Twitter
She was one of the last holdouts on the 140-character social networking site, but even though Carrie Underwood finally joined Twitter about a month ago, she admits she's still a little hesitant about it. From the moment she first tweeted "Hello Twitter World!" on Feb. 24, Underwood has used the site primarily to talk about the progress of her upcoming album 'Blown Away,' her most recent single 'Good Girl,' her surprise '80s birthday party and the occasional post featuring her dogs or hockey playing husband Mike Fisher. But the songstress says the Twitterverse is not a place where she's going to get too personal.
Scotty McCreery to Return to the 'American Idol' Stage
If there's one thing 'American Idol' seems to love as much as discovering the newest talent, it's inviting their alums back for a moment in the spotlight. It's always so incredible to how performers who were once anxious hopefuls develop into such poised, self-assured stars in no time. Next week, the past 'Idol' winner who will be coming back to show off how he's changed in a year is Scotty McCreery, and he'll be joined by rap princess Nicki Minaj.

Acceptable Loss (Paperback)
Anne Perry's seventeenth William Monk novel, now in paperback, is a mesmerizing masterpiece of innocence and evil on London's docks, a welcome addition to this successful and beloved series.NATIONAL BESTSELLER On a London riverbank, when the body of small-time crook Mickey Parfitt washes up with the tide, no one grieves. But William Monk, commander of the River Police, is puzzled by the murder weapon: an elegant scarf whose original owner was obviously a man of substance. Dockside informers lead Monk to a floating palace of corruption on the Thames managed by Parfitt, where a band of half-starved boys is held captive for men willing to pay a high price for midnight pleasures. Though Monk and his fearless wife, Hester, would gladly reward Parfitt's killer, duty leads them in another direction--to an unresolved crime, to a deadly confrontation with some of the empire's most respected men, and ultimately to a courtroom showdown with Monk's old friend, Oliver Rathbone, in a trial of nearly unbearable tension and suspense.

Microsoft sold its popular Slate online magazine today to The Washington Post Co., a move that makes Slate's political commentary...
WASHINGTON Microsoft sold its popular Slate online magazine today to The Washington Post Co., a move that makes Slate's political commentary and quirky feature articles more broadly available across the Internet.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Microsoft has said Slate, with roughly 6 million readers monthly, breaks even financially but has sought a buyer since the summer. Under the sales agreement, content from Slate will continue to be available on Microsoft's MSN Web site.
The Post, which has increasingly sought unique content for its Web site distinct from its newspaper articles, said it planned no editorial changes at Slate. Jacob Weisberg will remain editor, and Slate will continue to operate offices in New York and Washington.
"Microsoft has been a wonderful home for us since 1996," Weisberg said in a statement. "It's clear, though, that The Washington Post Company is the best place for Slate to grow and develop."
The Post said it will operate Slate as part of the same business subsidiary, Washington Post Newsweek Interactive, that runs its popular Washingtonpost.com and Newsweek.com Web sites.
In trading Tuesday morning, Washington Post shares rose $8.94, or just under 1 percent, to $942. The stock has traded in a 52-week range of $770.00 to $998.75.

Remove the Lymph Nodes from the meat and avoid eating brain, spinal, and connective tissues and you should be safe.
The lymph system is pretty widespread throughout a mammal body and though the major ones might be excised, it ain't gonna work. As far as "connective tissue", ....maybe I'll leave that one alone as well.
The jerk that posted this thread is a card carrying PeTA member. The madcow.org is enough proof on the matter and this persons brain has already been filled with tofu anyway. "According to the State of California" every damned thing causes cancer and will kill you. That coming from a state that has a great chance to have surfing become popular water sports in Utah and Nevada.
My great granddaddies half brother Heimlich Gantry wuz chawing on a piece of elk once that was so tuff Ma Gantry had to put meat tenderizer in the gravy.... he forgot to masticate it 21 times, cheating on the count and after about 12 good chews decided to swallow....why son that cud of elk got hung up in his throat and he liked to have died, if it weren't fer my Uncle Heimlich Gantry coming by, and putting him in a bear hug. Yep eating elk is right near as dangerous as seating primers with one of them $9.99 Lee Loaders.
Thats PETA working against us. Theres more people getting killed
everyday by automobiles then will ever die eating deer or elk.
That last sentence can only be appreciated by those of us who lived that life. Thanx for the chuckle.
Haven't thought about that Lee Loader in years. Had three of them. Sure were loud when you seated a primer backwards. Still can't hear anthing.
Is this article "appears" to be from Outdoor Life.Can anybody verify that indeed they are shooting themselves in the foot?
So your best bet is to have it cut, wrapped and froze. Then to be really on the safe side, send all your elk meat to me. I will dispose of it properly.
it will not kill you if you kill it first before you try to cook it!
i tried to eat it before i shot it
i missed it clean and it was close and a monster probably scoring
160 or better
i almost died
There has been no known case world wide of anyone dying from eating elk or deer, even with CWD.
You are trying to eat it while it is still alive ! Especially if it has a good set of antlers ! Bradlee
Pass the gravy baby ! oh and by the way - prop me up beside the jukebox when I die & but I prefer brunettes !

Ex-girlfriend tells 911 dispatcher Randle pointed gun at her
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - The former girlfriend of Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle told a 911 dispatcher he threatened her with a gun near their son and made another woman bleed.
Dalia Jacobs placed two of three 911 calls early Tuesday after an altercation at a Kansas hotel in which Jacobs said Randle had broken a window of her car.
The Wichita Eagle (http://bit.ly/1y0OUs1) reports Jacobs went to the hotel so Randle could see their baby. The newspaper obtained recordings of the 911 calls after filing an open records request.
In the first call, Jacobs urged the dispatcher to send someone quickly but not tell Randle who had called.
A different woman made the second call. In the third, Jacobs said everything was fine.
No charges related to domestic violence have been filed.
