Marijuana: Fight Back With The Facts – Toke of the TownPosted by: | Comments
Marijuana: Fight Back With The Facts – Toke of the Town: "The prohibitionists try to tell us that marijuana is not medicine. The scientific research tells us that cannabis can be a useful medical treatment for a wide range of diseases, and there are literally hundreds of scientific studies to back this up. For a 420-page listing of studies showing the effectiveness of medical marijuana, check out Granny Storm Crow's list.
Marijuana is medically good for you. Fight back with the facts.
The prohibitionists tell us that smoking marijuana makes us stupid and lazy and unmotivated. But the scientific research tells us that cannabis smokers work harder and smarter than their non-toking brethren. The Rubin Study in Jamaica, published in the 1970s by Dr. Vera Rubin (look it up if you don't believe me), shows that the hardest workers are the highest workers.
Marijuana is good for your motivation. Fight back with the facts.
The prohibitionists tell us that marijuana is a gateway drug. The scientific research tells us that not only is cannabis not a gateway drug, but is in fact an exit drug from hard drug use, which has shown to be invaluable in helping addicts of meth, cocaine and heroin, along with alcoholics, maintain abstinence from harmful substances.
Marijuana is good for stopping drug abuse. Fight back with the facts.

?The prohibitionists tell us that the smoking of marijuana by pregnant women results in lower birth weights and less intelligent babies. The scientific research tells us that toking mothers have babies that are just as healthy, with birth weights just as normal, as babies born of non-toking mothers. And you know what else the research showed? That the babies of pot smoking mothers scored better on laboratory tests of cognition than babies of non-smoking mothers. Another independent scientific study showed that babies of marijuana-using mothers have a lower mortality rate than babies of mothers who didn't use any drugs at all! The baby mortality rate among non-using mothers was 13.7 per 1,000 live births, while babies of toking mothers had a rate of only 8.9 deaths per 1000 births."
News from the Edge | Mayans Ended up in Georgia | unknowncountryPosted by: | Comments
News from the Edge | Mayans Ended up in Georgia | unknowncountry: "How did corn, beans and tobacco come to the Indians of the US? We used to think they came from Native Americans who brought them back from their trips across the border into Mexico, but they may have come from Mayans who moved north and eventually settled in the state of Georgia.
For a long time, US archaeologists said there were no Mayan ruins here, but that was probably because they weren't familiar with the buildings of the descendants of the Southeastern mound-builder tribes: The Creeks, Alabamas, Natchez, Chitimachas and Choctaws. Despite their insistence that all Indians arrived in North America by walking across the land bridge that once stretched from Siberia, these tribes have always claimed that their ancestors came up from the south, and recent DNA evidence shows proof that they were right.

Jim Sherwood obituary | Music | The GuardianPosted by: | Comments
Jim Sherwood obituary | Music | The Guardian: "Jim Sherwood on tour in Germany with the Mothers of Invention in 1967. His principal contributions came on baritone and/or tenor saxophone, though he could also be heard on percussion and vocals. Photograph: Petra Niemeier/K&K/Redferns
Jim "Motorhead" Sherwood, who has died aged 69, was a member of Frank Zappa's original Mothers of Invention. He appeared on all the group's early albums, up to and including Weasels Ripped My Flesh (1970), as well as on Zappa's solo disc Lumpy Gravy. He later performed with the Grandmothers, a group of musicians who had accompanied Zappa during different phases of his career.
Born in Arkansas City, Kansas, Sherwood first met Zappa in 1956 when both of them were attending Antelope Valley high school in California. Sherwood was in the same class as Frank's brother: "Bobby found out that I collected blues records and he introduced me to Frank, and Frank and I sort of got together and swapped records."
At the time, Zappa was already in a band called the Blackouts, but this soon disintegrated. Then the brothers moved to Ontario, California, and started a new band, the Omens, which also included Sherwood. He would regularly jam with Zappa in a string of different groups, and eventually, in 1964, the Mothers. The following year, the band signed a recording contract with MGM records, and set about the lengthy process of recording their first album, Freak Out!, with producer Tom Wilson. At the time, Sherwood was not a fully fledged member of the band, which changed its name to the Mothers of Invention. He described his role on Freak Out! as "just making sound effects on some of the songs".
After the album's release in June 1966 on MGM's Verve label, the band went on tour, then in November that year took up a six-month residency at the Garrick theatre in New York, during which they played 14 shows a week. Sherwood was working for the band as equipment manager and roadie, and sometimes operated the lighting during the Garrick shows. These were a bizarre mix of music and performance art, featuring puppet shows and interludes when the band would pelt the audience with fruit.
It was when the Mothers made their first trip to England, in mid-1967, that Sherwood was finally hired as a full-time musician. It was the band's vocalist and percussionist Ray Collins who gave Sherwood the nickname "Motorhead", through his love of working on cars and trucks and motorcycles: "He said 'it sounds like you've got a little motor in your head', so they just called me Motorhead and that seemed to stick."
Sherwood contributed on baritone and/or tenor saxophone, and sometimes percussion and vocals, to Absolutely Free, We're Only in It for the Money, and the doo-wop album Cruising with Ruben & the Jets, taking in the Zappa solo album Lumpy Gravy en route. Zappa disbanded the original Mothers of Invention in 1969 for financial reasons and what he perceived as public apathy, but Sherwood appears on the albums Uncle Meat, Burnt Weeny Sandwich and Weasels Ripped My Flesh, recorded before the split but released subsequently.
Sherwood makes an appearance in Zappa's bizarre and confusing 1971 movie 200 Motels ("Frank wanted me to play a newt rancher and I was supposed to be in love with a vacuum cleaner," as he put it). In 1973, he played baritone sax on the album For Real!, by Ruben & the Jets. This was a band formed by Ruben Guevara, inspired by Zappa's album Cruising with Ruben & the Jets, and Zappa played some guitar on their debut album as well as producing it.
Sherwood appeared on the further Zappa releases You Are What You Is (1981), Civilization Phaze III in 1993, the year of Zappa's death, and the Läther box set, released three years later.
In the 1980s, Sherwood performed with the Grandmothers, and played on a couple of albums with them. During the 1990s, he joined forces with Billy James and his Ant-Bee project.
James, a graduate of Berklee College of Music, Boston, wanted to express his fascination with psychedelic and experimental music from the 1960s, for which he assembled musicians from the Mothers of Invention and Captain Beefheart's band. Sherwood appears on three Ant-Bee albums, though by this time he had given up playing the saxophone and his contributions are limited to "snorks", in which you "snort through your nose, sucking air in through your nose". He added further snorks to Sandro Oliva's album Who the Fuck Is Sandro Oliva?!? (1995).
"I just feel honoured to have spent time with [Frank Zappa] and the other guys in the early group," said Sherwood. "[He was] an incredible person, and his music is just something I enjoy listening to all the time."
• Euclid James Sherwood, musician, born 8 May 1942; died 25 December 2011″

Christopher Hitchens and the protocol for public figure deaths – Salon.comPosted by: | Comments
One of the most intensely propagandistic weeks in the last several decades began on June 5, 2004, the day Ronald Reagan died at the age of 93 in Bel Air, California. For the next six days, his body was transported to, and his casket displayed in, multiple venues around the nation — first to a funeral home in Santa Monica; then to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, where it remained for two full days as over 100,000 people paid their respects; then onto the U.S. Capitol, where his casket was taken by horse-drawn caisson along Constitution Avenue, and then lay in state under the dome for the next day-and-a-half; then to a state funeral at Washington's National Cathedral presided over by President Bush and attended by dozens of past and present world leaders; and then back to the Presidential Library in California, where another service was held and his body finally interred. Few U.S. Presidents in history, if any, have received anything comparable upon their death; as CNN anchor Judy Woodruff observed the day Reagan's body arrived in the capital: "Washington has not seen the likes of this for more than 30 years.
R.I.P. Christopher Hitchens, 1949–2011Posted by: | Comments
In Memoriam: Christopher Hitchens, 1949–2011 | Blogs | Vanity Fair: "Christopher Hitchens—the incomparable critic, masterful rhetorician, fiery wit, and fearless bon vivant—died today at the age of 62. Hitchens was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in the spring of 2010, just after the publication of his memoir, Hitch-22, and began chemotherapy soon after. His matchless prose has appeared in Vanity Fair since 1992, when he was named contributing editor.
"Cancer victimhood contains a permanent temptation to be self-centered and even solipsistic," Hitchens wrote nearly a year ago in Vanity Fair, but his own final labors were anything but: in the last 12 months, he produced for this magazine a piece on U.S.-Pakistani relations in the wake of Osama bin Laden's death, a portrait of Joan Didion, an essay on the Private Eye retrospective at the Victoria and Albert Museum, a prediction about the future of democracy in Egypt, a meditation on the legacy of progressivism in Wisconsin, and a series of frank, graceful, and exquisitely written essays in which he chronicled the physical and spiritual effects of his disease. At the end, Hitchens was more engaged, relentless, hilarious, observant, and intelligent than just about everyone else—just as he had been for the last four decades.
"My chief consolation in this year of living dyingly has been the presence of friends," he wrote in the June 2011 issue. He died in their presence, too, at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. May his 62 years of living, well, so livingly console the many of us who will miss him dearly."

WELLINGTON, Dec 15 (Reuters) - Dairy giant Fonterra said on Thursday it had established a 1.5 billion yuan ($216.36 million) multi-currency facility with the Bank of China , the first of its kind for New Zealand.
Fonterra, the world's largest dairy exporter, said the facility provided diversity in its yuan funding sources for its operations in China, its largest market.
"Bank of China has strong liquidity in renminbi and its local presence and knowledge offer us additional benefits in the rapidly developing Chinese financial markets," Fonterra's chief financial officer Lukas Paravicini said in a written statement.
Bank of China set up operations in New Zealand in 2014, following on the heels of other major Chinese banks such as ICBC and China Construction Bank.
Though still a small presence in New Zealand, the Asian giant's banks provided an alternative in the Pacific nation's claustrophobic banking sector, dominated by four big Australian lenders, and touted themselves as a way for New Zealand businesses to smooth their inroads into China.
"We see great opportunities in developing more renminbi (RMB) products and tapping into China's debt capital markets on behalf of New Zealand financial institutions and government agencies," said Bank of China New Zealand Chief Executive David Lei Wang in a statement, announcing the facility to Fonterra.

EDDIE ARGOS was depressed. He was working long hours behind the bar at Hog's Head, a pub in the seaside town of Weymouth, England. The weather outside was gray and his tables were full of stodgy, disaffected tourists who had decided there was more warmth in a pint of ale than a day on the beach. Argos had just lost his girlfriend, and his finances that summer of 2000 were bleaker than the weather.
"It was really not going well for me," Argos said. "I was back in the kitchen talking to the chef about getting away, going somewhere, going anywhere. I started talking about the best place to go and thought: L.A. I had never been to L.A. and didn't know a thing about it. But I started making all these plans. And then it became a song. I just wrote it all down."
Argos' pub bluster on a rainy day would eventually become "Moving to L.A.," a breakthrough hit for his band, Art Brut. Argos is known for his arch affectations and his zany antics onstage, and on this song he has a bit of the stretched-out screech of Johnny Rotten, but with the droll lyrics of a soccer hooligan channeling Warren Zevon. "I think I've got it sorted," he sings, "I'm gonna get myself deported!" The chorus has a call and response between Argos ("I'm considering a move to L.A.!") and the straight-faced band ("He's considering a move to L.A."). The view of Southern California from a distant pub is an interesting one:
Hang around with Axl Rose
Buy myself some brand-new clothes
Everything's gonna be just fine
I hear the murder rate is in decline
When Argos finally did make it here, the first thing he did was live up to his song's pledge to strip off his shirt and roam the streets. He and his bandmates prowled the Sunset Strip and soaked in the local culture ("We went to that bar from the Motley Crüe video!"). He seriously considered renting a Harley-Davidson but decided his lack of a driver's license made it a bad idea.
"I thought it would be my one and only time in Los Angeles and in America, but now we spend more time here than in England," the singer said of his band's growing foothold in the U.S. scene and radio success. Now, with a girlfriend residing in Echo Park, the former pub daydreamer is actually contemplating a real-life move here this year. "My song was a self-fulfilling prophecy. My next song, by the way, is called 'Lottery Winner.' "

Former Soviet gold medal-winning gymnast finds opportunity, LDS Church in the U.S.
J-TX Allen, TXApril 11, 2014 8:45 a.m.
Time for an "I'm a Mormon" video.
goosehuntr Tooele, UTApril 11, 2014 8:07 a.m.
Love the fruits of the gospel of Jesus Christ when applied to ones life. It changes everything, and for the better. Balance is so hard to achieve. Constant juggling of priorities. The Gospel gives vision and assistance with that balancing act, and it preserves relationships that might otherwise wither. It is a "salt that does not lose its savour." Though some things can be argued forever concerning the gospel, the effect on peoples lives cannot. It is real, and it is sweet. But like all living things, nourishment is of the first order or it shrinks or becomes choked with other cares and is crowded out. For me that is the challenge. Thanks for all the inspiring posts... from an inspiring experience. Peace.
LovelyDeseret Gilbert, AZApril 10, 2014 11:24 p.m.
Seems like a cursory biography of this former Soviet gymnast. I hope he is happy now. The gospel can bring great peace and joy to those who embrace it.

Wonderful person and story.
antodav TAMPA, FLApril 10, 2014 9:55 a.m.
From communism to "Mormonism"…that is quite a leap. And I thought my own conversion story was radical. Of course, it always helps when there is a person of the opposite sex to motivate you (as there was in my case, partially). This man's athletic training probably also helped him prepare for the rigors of Gospel living too…much as marching band did for my wife, or pledging for a fraternity did for me. Nothing teaches the principle of "opposition in all things" more rapidly than rigorous athletic activity requiring enormous patience and discipline.
EPoint Roy, UTApril 10, 2014 8:54 a.m.
Sharipov certainly has experienced great triumphs as well as great trials in his life, and come out the better for it. Few have had such experiences, Ohio State is lucky to have him. Balancing our time in this mortal life is perhaps the greatest challenge, given all the needs and demands placed upon us. Love to hear more of his philosophy and methods for doing this.
Jamescmeyer Midwest City, USA, OKApril 10, 2014 7:32 a.m.
This was an inspiring story. I'm glad he was able to move forward despite trials I probably wouldn't have tolerated.

|A Safe and Healthy Workplace
The Company implemented a policy on Environment, Safety and Health at Work (LK3) through the implementation of programs on Safety and Health at Work (K3) as a concrete way to improve the safety of employees, prevent accidents in the workplace and work-related diseases while at the same time provided a sense of security to all employees and all parties involved in the work process in the Company. This commitment is presented in the Collective Labor Agreement (PKB) by mentioning articles on K3. [G4-LA8]
The Company seeks to minimize the occurrence of unsafe actions and minimize unsafe conditions to prevent the occurrence of accidents at work. Routine inspections and sustainable improvements are made to maintain and increase the safety at work. In addition, the Company seeks to ensure that the K3 provisions are obeyed and implemented by any parties through the following measures:
The Company took care of fire extinguisher facilities (fire trucks and dry-chemical fire extinguishers) so that they are always ready and safe to use, reliable, and meet principles of the Environment, Safety, and Health at Work.
Representatives of each department are involved in the Supervisory Committee of Safety and Health at Work (P2K3). The number of workers' representation in PSK3 is proportional to the number of workers in the respective department and with a minimum of 2 persons from each department. In 2015, the number of workers' representative in P2K3 was 1,086 persons. [G4-LA5]
The Government of the Republic of Indonesia through the Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration presented awards to 4 subsidiaries for their achievements in the Zero Accident throughout 2015, namely to: (1) PT Karya Tanah Subur; (2) PT Kimia Tirta Utama; (3) PT Ekadura Indonesia, and (4) PT Pasangkayu.
To anticipate fire risks, fire preventing and extinguishing facilities such as dry-chemical fire extinguisher and fire trucks up to their standards under regular maintenance and periodic inspection in order to ensure their readiness at anytime required. Training on fire prevention and extinguishing was held regularly to improve any personnel's preparedness in fighting fire. In 2015, there were 40 fire trucks that were ready for use in emergencies. [G4-LA9]
The Company adopts a policy in handling emergencies, which is based on the awareness that Indonesia is geographically located along the Pacific ring of fire which is prone to natural disasters such as flooding, earthquakes, etc. The guidelines prepared cover a standard procedure and the Emergency Response Team (TKTD) specially established to deal with emergencies. [G4-LA9]
The Company seeks to improve employees' health by promoting good work habits and maintaining or increasing health quality in the working environment. The Company implements various policies to prevent occurring work-related diseases and at the same time seeks to keep employees and their families in good health. Any employee suffering health problems or illness receives medication or medical care in a hospital with costs fully covered by the Company.
The Company's promotional and preventive activities are designed according to results of employees' periodic medical check-ups to monitor employees' health. As such, activities will be more effective and efficient. The Company carried out medical check-up, especially for employees working in risky areas based on the arising risks. In the event that signs of health deterioration are found at a certain threshold, any employee may be transferred to another department that is not risky. [G4-LA7]
Promotional and preventive programs carried out in 2015 were as follows:
been equipped with facilities the Centers have been equipped with facilities and and equipment and play grounds which are appropriate and safe for children. [G4-LA8]

Daylight Saving – The Movie
So good. So, so good. So very good.
So watch it.
This is great – A very cleverly edited piece of real Gordon Ramsay footage that'll make you laugh. Watch it!
From Youtube user Rocketjump here is a fantastic take on what TV ads looked like in the 90s.
I don't remember them looking exactly like this. Well, the start perhaps but then… let's just say the video holds a couple of surprises and they are BRILLIANT, so watch it.

Supervillian Outcast' is DHG's follow-up to the critically-acclaimed 1999 release 666 International, a sonically-charged rollercoaster ride of avant-garde chaos and intense black metal drive and atmosphere. The album, which ended up on many critics' Top 10 lists, helped inject the black metal music scene with something unique and groundbreaking the year of it's release. While most bands would be affected by such a lengthy downtime between releases, DHG' insatiable drive to reach new plateaus with their powerful aural assaults has kept the momentum going strong allowing 'Supervillain Outcast' to serve up pure black metal anarchy. -This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The Rights of Man
|| Get the Book | Del.icio.us
1779 - 1792
WHEN Thomas Paine sailed from America for France, in April, 1787, he was perhaps as happy a man as any in the world. His most intimate friend, Jefferson, was Minister at Paris, and his friend Lafayette was the idol of France. His fame had preceded him, and he at once became, in Paris, the centre of the same circle of savants and philosophers that had surrounded Franklin. His main reason for proceeding at once to Paris was that he might submit to the Academy of Sciences his invention of an iron bridge, and with its favorable verdict he came to England, in September. He at once went to his aged mother at Thetford, leaving with a publisher (Ridgway), his " Prospects on the Rubicon." He next made arrangements to patent his bridge, and to construct at Rotherham the large model of it exhibited on Paddington Green, London. He was welcomed in England by leading statesmen, such as Lansdowne and Fox, and above all by Edmund Burke, who for some time had him as a guest at Beaconsfield, and drove him about in various parts of the country. He had not the slightest revolutionary purpose, either as regarded England or France. Towards Louis XVI. he felt only gratitude for the services he had rendered America, and towards George III. he felt no animosity whatever. His four months' sojourn in Paris had convinced him that there was approaching a reform of that country after the American model, except that the Crown would be preserved, a compromise he approved, provided the throne should not be hereditary. Events in France travelled more swiftly than he had anticipated, and Paine was summoned by Lafayette, Condorcet, and others, as an adviser in the formation of a new constitution.
Such was the situation immediately preceding the political and literary duel between Paine and Burke, which in the event turned out a tremendous war between Royalism and Republicanism in Europe. Paine was, both in France and in England, the inspirer of moderate counsels. Samuel Rogers relates that in early life he dined at a friend's house in London with Thomas Paine, when one of the toasts given was the " memory of Joshua,"-in allusion to the Hebrew leader's conquest of the kings of Canaan, and execution of them. Paine observed that he would not treat kings like Joshua. " I 'm of the Scotch parson's opinion," he said, "when he prayed against Louis XIV.-`Lord, shake him over the mouth of hell, but don't let him drop! ' " Paine then gave as his toast, " The Republic of the World,"-which Samuel Rogers, aged twenty-nine, noted as a sublime idea. This was Paine's faith and hope, and with it he confronted the revolutionary storms which presently burst over France and England.
Until Burke's arraignment of France in his parliamentary speech (February 9, 1790), Paine had no doubt whatever that he would sympathize with the movement in France, and wrote to him from that country as if conveying glad tidings. Burke's " Reflections on the Revolution in France " appeared November 1, 1790, and Paine at once set himself to answer it. He was then staying at the Angel Inn, Islington. The inn has been twice rebuilt since that time, and from its contents there is preserved only a small image, which perhaps was meant to represent " Liberty,"-possibly brought from Paris by Paine as an ornament for his study. From the Angel he removed to a house in Harding Street, Fetter Lane. Rickman says Part First of " Rights of Man " was finished at Versailles, but probably this has reference to the preface only, as I cannot find Paine in France that year until April 8. The book had been printed by Johnson, in time for the opening of Parliament, in February ; but this publisher became frightened after a few copies were out (there is one in the British Museum), and the work was transferred to J. S. Jordan, 166 Fleet Street, with a preface sent from Paris (not contained in Johnson's edition, nor in the American editions). The pamphlet, though sold at the same price as Burke's, three shillings, had a vast circulation, and Paine gave the proceeds to the Constitutional Societies which sprang up under his teachings in various parts of the country.

Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson entered Sunday's pregame workouts wearing cleats depicting police caution tape.
Jackson said he felt compelled to speak out against police-related violence, but explained he was not taking a stance against law enforcement. He later elected to wear them during the game as well, a decision that could subject him to a fine for violating the NFL's uniform policy.
"Today is the start of my attempts to be part of a solution and start dialogue about the senseless killings of both citizens and police," Jackson said in a statement. "I have chosen to wear these cleats in pregame today to use my platform as a pro athlete to add to this discussion. This isn't meant to be any kind of protest against the good men and women in law enforcement in this country. I just to express my concern in a peaceful and productive way about the issues that are currently impacting our country."

text: So, the Wii U is coming out in less than two months, but I notice that we're still using that old E3 2011 prototype of the Wii U gamepad for the main image in the Wii U section. Is there any chance the mods could update it to show the "final" design of the gamepad? Not trying to be demanding or anything, but it really bothers me, personally. I don't know about anyone else.

I spent some quality time with my television last night, watching 7/9 of the Democratic presidential hopefuls address the Human Rights Commission. Based on last night's speeches and Q&A sessions, I'm down to three possible candidates. Only three candidates backed gay marriage: Carol Moseley Braun, Dennis Kucinich and Al Sharpton, and therefore, only those three have a chance in the world of getting my vote. Saying this makes me sound like I'm a one-issue voter--gay rights! gay rights! gay rights!--or that I'm enamored with the institution of marriage, but really, I'm neither. I just refuse to vote for anyone who doesn't recognize that creating a separate set of rules for glbt citizens is discrimination. If they won't stick up for my rights even this early in the game, why would anyone expect them to stick up for any other oppressed group?
Both Sharpton and Braun have nice sound bites on it (I missed Kucinich, probably because I turned the channel for awhile because Lieberman pissed me off). Sharpton said creating civil union rules for gays and lesbians is "like saying we'll give blacks or whites or Latinos the rights to shack up, but not marry." And Braun said (in her survey answer) "The concept of 'separate but equal' was properly rejected as inherently problematic by the Supreme Court in the landmark school desegregation case, Brown v. Board of Education. While I applaud the Vermont civil unions law, I am convinced that ultimately inequities will arise if there is one set of laws governing marriage commitments for heterosexuals and another set of laws governing marriage commitments for homosexuals." I enjoyed Sharpton's passion, but I liked Braun's response better, because she was smart enough to bring up the best legal precedent she could find.
Gay marriage is a tough topic, because let's face it, marriage ain't all it's cracked up to be. At least, the majority of the marriages I see around me are something to escape, not celebrate. So, I'm not all into emulating the heterosexual world. On the other hand, I'm tired of how damn complicated life is when you can't get married. Why should I have to work overtime to pay for the legal fees so I can get a set of papers that should at least in theory give Catherine the right to visit me in the emergency room? Why do we have to worry about writing extra tight wills so we can inherit our joint property?
So, I see some legal benefits I want. What I want may not be what's best for the country, though, I haven't decided. Rewarding marriage with certain legal privileges does create a two-tiered system. If gay marriage becomes legal, then Catherine becomes the head of our household, we get a tax break, and I can finally afford my insurance coverage. But is that fair to people like Garry and Amanda, who have been living together for 8 years? Why can't Garry be on Amanda's health insurance w/out that stupid little marriage certificate? Too many privileges are tied to the rules of courtship and marriage in this country, and I'd love to pry them apart, but I find myself instead saying "Hey, give me the right to marry!"
I hate being an American.

"Iran will get a nuclear bomb as soon as it can, on the theory that this will prevent an attack by the U.S."
It's a tried and tested strategy, to be fair.
Oh yeah, the Mullahs look at North Korea and see no U.S. attack. Which is okay with me, I'm not advocating attacking North Korea.

A Fan-Made Successor to Mother 3 is Coming
If you thought Sonic Fan Remix was the only noteworthy fan game being made, think again. Mother 4 is currently being worked on by a group of fans, and though development is slow and the game has a long way to go, it's quite possible that a new Mother game will be available in the future. Though this isn't an official game from Nintendo, it certainly manages to get the attention of many, especially faithful followers of the series.
- slide 2 of 4
A Look at Mother/Earthbound
The Mother series—known outside of Japan as Earthbound—is famous for straying away from the conventional RPG mold. Replacing mystical swords with baseball bats and mages with hippies, Mother has crafted a unique legacy of its own. Sadly, poor marketing, limited sales, and strange advertising have led the series to reach cult status in North America. To this day, the only Mother game to appear in North America is Earthbound, the second game in the series.
Additionally, because of Earthbound's numerous pop culture references, Nintendo has yet to include the game on the Wii's Virtual Console. For those of you still holding out hope for the release of this title, chances are you'll never see the game in a downloadable format for the Wii. As much as we all want Earthbound on the Virtual Console, the chances of Nintendo releasing it are slim to none.
- slide 3 of 4
What Do We Know About Mother 4?
So far, not a lot of news has surfaced regarding Mother 4. A few images, a development blog, and confirmation that the game is currently in the works are all we have to go by at the moment. From the looks of it, Mother 4 looks to continue the legacy of Shigesato Itoi's famed franchise whilst retaining its own appeal.
The game's look certainly goes with the previous official releases in the series. It has been modified a tad, but Mother 4's graphical style has all the charm of previous games. The story is right up there as well. A young man named Chase sets out for adventure after odd spaceships appear and take control of the citizens of Flutune. The protagonist then goes on his quest, where he will meet new friends and make unlikely allies. Reminiscent of Mother, Earthbound, and Mother 3? Absolutely.
- slide 4 of 4
No Launch Date Yet
Sadly, the previously mentioned details are all we know about the sequel to Mother 3. In development since 2008, it's still not known when Mother 4 will release. Here's hoping it's sooner than later, though. Shigesato Itoi previously stated that he would not be working on a successor to Mother 3, so this fan game may be the closest thing to Mother 4 fans of the series will get.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Business Operations' started by Hamons, Jan 7, 2005.
well, he is damn good at responding then....a keeper!!
I like the revision on page 2. It list your services which is important. Just a postcard with name and number doesn't really do much for me. I think some of your older ads were better, why are you changing them?
Soupy -- since all of my posts are on one page -- I'm not sure which one yo mean -- post #20? The one with just the lawn and house?
This ad is display ad that runs monthly in a local garden magazine and I am just getting anew one designed for the next couple m onths -- I like to switch them up.
Which old ad did you like better?
bingo, jeff! nice redesign and it gets you back into the branding. now.... would you start losing the logo and text if your designer took the fade out of the top 1/2 of the house? my assumption is yes and that's why he did it, so... nevermind.
looks great and i also just noticed the job he did of integrating the logo with the border. nice touch.
Yes, post #20 . I'm not sure which add, but I remember you having some I liked last year. I think your on the right track as for as keeping it simple, but a small list of services would be a plus. Is there anyway to have #20 with you in it pushing the spreader. Just a thought.

Early Show!
The Rest Is Up To You, Audiostrobelight, Uh Huh Baby Yeah, The Water Between
Deep South The Bar
430 S. Dawson St.
Raleigh, NC, 27601
Doors 4:00 PM
This event is 21 and over
The Rest Is Up To You
A band from North Carolina, The Rest Is Up To You provides songs that make you want to sing-a-long and dance. With influences from the good old days of pop punk, The Rest Is Up To You is sure to be a good time. "Enjoy The Show!" the bands debut EP was recorded in Baltimore, Maryland with producers Dan Book and Alexi Misoul of Misty Hill Music. "Enjoy The Show" IS OUT NOW on iTunes!
NEW RECORD "What You're Running From" AVAILABLE NOW at www.WhatYoureRunningFrom.com !
Uh Huh Baby Yeah
"All my friends are dead. Hope that you like living with regret, because you're just lying to yourselves."
It's a story we all know too well. All bands fall on conflict and most never live long enough to tell the tale. In this case, what seemed to be the beginning of the end only breathed fresh air into a band that is just getting started.
For Uh Huh Baby Yeah!, conflict is all part of the bigger equation. "We've seen so much turmoil and for the longest time it was hard to rise above it", says singer Kevin Fletcher, "And it shows in our music. We're coming back harder, faster, heavier - this is a side of us you've never seen."
Coming off the release of their debut album, Till Death Do Us Party, the guys in UHBY! were unsure of where to go at first. "There were two ways this next set of tunes could go", replies Sean Smith, the brains behind the rhythm section, "We could essentially make Till Death (Do Us Party) part 2, or we could take elements we enjoyed from it and utilize our experiences to make a more mature, well rounded album. We chose the latter."
"The lies that you sold are worth more than gold. And now the joke's on you."
Ranging from subjects of heartache, divorce, revenge and reawakening, UHBY! have a lot more to say on this release than ever before. The recently released single, "Dead Friends" tackles the departure of their guitarist and bass player head on. The song bangs from the start and infects you with the catchiest of choruses. Pronouncing all of your friends "dead" isn't something most people take lightly. But, the boys are just heating up.
Other songs included on their upcoming release are party anthem "Dances With Wolves", revenge jam "Whores Will Be Whores" and the jazz infused ballad "Ocean of You". "There's a more mature theme to this album than the last", says guitarist John Braboy, "Don't get me wrong – we still love to party. But, we've grown up a bit. We have more to talk about."
Uh Huh Baby Yeah! have just wrapped shooting on the video for "Dead Friends", are headed to the studio to start production on the new album this November and will follow with a tour upon the release of the album in March. They're amped, excited and ready to take over the world. After everything they've experienced, UHBY! have issued a call to action:
"We rise to the occasion. Where the f*ck are you now?"
Bio - The Water Between started in the fall of 2013 when Jarrett Ross and Aaron Tylee (previously of The Rest Is Up To You) began working on songs Jarrett had started writing his senior year of college. They soon joined forces with Kenny Adams and Eduardo Fuentes in the fall of 2013 and the group quickly grabbed a foothold in the local music scene. The momentum for the band kept building and they quickly found themselves on the road playing shows all around the east coast.
In May 2014 they went into the studio and began recording their debut EP "Grass On The Field", which was released on October 18th, 2014. In November Eduardo decided to leave the band and they soon found new bassist Donny Sills, who not only brought a unique style to the band but also brought new songs. Now with a new line-up and more passion than ever they are planning big things for the coming year. Using rhythmic lyrics, catchy riffs, hard hitting drums, and an eclectic mix of influences The Water Between is ready to wet your whistle with amazing music.

Retailers Can Master Mobile Using Machine Learning
As the modern consumer becomes a multi-channel shopper, the modern retailer has been forced to follow suit.

Brooklyn: Third Night of Protests After Undercover Police Shoot and Kill Teenager
(img via Twitter: @johnknefel)
The national media has been criminally silent on the story of Kimani Gray, the sixteen year old Brooklyn teenager who was shot and killed by undercover NYPD this past weekend.
Today RT.com reports that eighteen have been arrested as New Yorkers continue their third night of protests in the neighborhood of Flatbush.
On March 10th the Gothamist wrote
Police said two Brooklyn South Anti Crime plainclothes officers had been on patrol when they noticed young males near 473 East 52nd Street. According to the NYPD's statement, the cops noticed one "break away from the group upon noticing the police. The male... adjusted his waistband and continued to act in a suspicious manner. The officers exited their unmarked auto and attempted to engage the suspect, who turned on them, and pointed a .38 caliber revolver at the officers. Both officers fired at the suspect, striking him about the body."
Witness Devonte Brown has a different story and tells the NY Daily News,
The cops, they just jumped out of the car so fast. They started shooting him and he went down. He was bleeding, holding his side, screaming, 'Stop, stop!

K-cup® packs and the Joe Pod®
There are many types of K-cup® packs, and the vast majority work really well with the joe pod®. But there are a few that don't. The rule of thumb is that if a K-cup® pack has less than 11g of coffee, it will brew in about three and a half minutes. For 11 to 12.5g of coffee, it's about four and a half minutes. Any K-cup® pack over 12.5g of coffee will not brew in the joe pod® (those are the really dark brews).
Also, some generic, non-Keurig® approved K-cup® packs don't work well with the joe pod® due to how they're made, so we recommend staying with Keurig® approved K-cup® packs if you're a novice joe pod® user.
We're compiling a list of K-cup® packs that work well with the joe pod®, but to help us do that, we'd love to hear feedback from you. What K-cup® packs work, which don't and which are your favorite. Let us know and we'll share that information with the joe pod® community.
Here are some brands that we find work well with the Joe Pod:
(Joe Pod is not affiliated with any of these brands)
- Starbucks Pike Place Roast (Medium)
- Starbucks House Blend
- Starbucks French Roast
- Starbucks Decaf House Blend
- Starbucks Sumatra (Dark Roast)
- Folgers Medium Classic

This weeks Project Run and Play challenge was denim. I didn't want to do the traditional jeans or jackets. So I decided on some colored stretch denim. I love colored denims. Really makes an outfit sturdy but gives it a little bit of character.
For the skirt I used Violette Fields Threads Whitney Skirt. It is super cute. Of course my not quite 2 year old who happens to be super tiny, doesn't fit perfect in the outfit. She is a little short and not quite round enough. But I know in the spring it will fit nicely. For the top I started with Peekaboo Patterns Oxford Top. I upcycled an old shirt of mine. Thought it turned out cute. Again, did a size 2 so she can wear it again in the spring. Can't believe how cold it got so fast here.
I think they turned out pretty cute. Maybe not my favorite, but still adorable. Probably because I love that model.
Check out my other projects for the 80's Carton Challenge and the Hand Me Down Challenge.

Animals / Reptiles / Types of Lizards / Sailfin Lizard - Soa Soa Water Dragon
Sailfin Lizard - Soa Soa Water Dragon
The soa-soa water dragon aka the sailfin or crested lizard can be found in the rain forest in parts of Papua New Guinea, in the Maluku Islands and Sulawesi of Indonesia and in the Philippines. There are three species of the sailfin lizards, one lives in the Philippines alone, another lives in Indonesia alone and the other seems to live on all those islands. They are fairly similar lizards so distinction can be confusing for the amateur. They can be quite colorful with blue, yellow, orange, green and black. The males of these species have a distinctive crest or "sail fin" on its tail supported by bony figments.
The other distinction of these lizards is that they are the largest of their kind (the agamid lizards) and have very strong and powerful forefeet. They can be bigger than 3.5 ft (1.1 m) including their long tails which can be 30 inches (75 cm) in length. They also have long "fingers"or toes.
This lizard likes to be near the water. It swims very well by using its tail and webbed feet to propel itself while in the water. When this lizard travels on dry land, it can run on its hind legs. This behavior is somewhat similar to the unrelated Jesus lizard of the Americas except the Jesus lizard runs on the water. The frilled lizard can also run on its hind legs. In order to maintain its big size, this lizard needs to eat plenty of leaves, tender plants and insects. It particularly loves to snack on the millipede.

text: After hitting w/ various frames, I've decided I'm well suited for the RQS-11. I like to hit w/ a lot of spin; pretty much rarely hit flat serves. The good news is I've seen several auction sites that offer it for 150, but now I've just learnt on this forum, that Hingis has a new frame an rds005!!! She must change every year! Anyway, I don't care whether I keep up w/ her, but I do wonder if I should wait for this new frame to come out? Will the price drop down on rqs11 even further? One other question, I demo'd a 4 3/8ths. I was thinking about getting a 4/14ths and adding a leather grip + overgrip to make it just a little heavier. After reading about ul and sl frames, does anyone know if the rqs comes in different weights? Thanks again to those who had helped me make my decision. Perhaps we can make a club like everyone else

Thursday NBA Action
April 25, 2013
By Sportsbook.ag
Sportsbook.ag Thursday NBA Playoffs Preview
MIAMI HEAT (68-16) at MILWAUKEE BUCKS (38-46)
Line & Total: Miami -7.5 & 195
The Bucks will be playing to avoid a 3-0 series deficit when they take their home court against the defending champion Heat on Thursday night.
Milwaukee was right in Game 2 for three quarters, but then Miami, yet again, flipped a switch, winning the game 98-86 behind a balanced attack led by Dwyane Wade. Wade had 21 points in the game and scored timely buckets to counter Bucks runs. One thing the Heat didn't do in Game 2, however, was cover the 14-point spread. They failed to do so, despite a very poor shooting night from the Bucks backcourt in which Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings combined to make only 5-of-22 FG (23%), including 0-for-10 from three-point range. Although Milwaukee was a winning team at home (21-20 SU), it was a paltry 15-25 ATS (38%) at BMO Harris Bradley Center this season. Miami was outstanding on the road this season, going 29-12 SU and 24-17 ATS (59%).
The Heat have dominated the first two games of this series with help from almost every player on the roster. In Game 2, SG Dwyane Wade led the way with 21 points (8-of-14 FG) and seven rebounds, but SF LeBron James was also a difference maker as always. James was 0-for-3 from three-point range, but he had 19 points, six assists and eight rebounds in the game. Some of the biggest contributions for Miami on Tuesday came from its bench players. SF Shane Battier was 2-of-5 from three and 4-for-4 from the free throw line to add 10 points and a +17 rating for Miami in just 24 minutes. The Heat also got tons of energy from PF Chris Andersen, who has become a fan favorite at AmericanAirlines Arena. The "Birdman" finished the game with 10 points, six rebounds and a +14 rating in just 12 minutes of play. He has provided the Heat with another defensive presence in the small spurts he has been on the court. SG Ray Allen shot poorly (2-of-8 FG), but had four assists and a game-best +26 rating. PF Chris Bosh finished with just 10 points and six boards, lowering his postseason averages to 12.5 PPG and 6.5 RPG.
The Bucks definitely feel better about their Game 2 performance than they did after Game 1. On Tuesday, Milwaukee was right in the game despite their best two scorers having an off-night. PG Monta Ellis was 2-for-7 FG (0-for-3 threes) and PG Brandon Jennings shot 3-for-15 from the floor and 0-for-7 from downtown. The backcourt did had five assists apiece, but posted a combined minus-20 rating with six turnovers. Despite being outrebounded 43-33, the Bucks got major offensive contributions in this game from their frontcourt though, with SF Ersan Ilyasova, C Larry Sanders and SF Mike Dunleavy. Ilyasova had 21 points (9-of-14 FG) and six rebounds in 29 minutes of play, while Sanders, who battled foul trouble in the game, scored 14 points on 6-of-7 shooting from the field. Sanders also had six rebounds and five turnovers. Mike Dunleavy provided instant offense off the bench for Milwaukee, going 6-of-9 from the field and 2-for-5 from three with 16 points, six rebounds and five assists in 25 minutes of play.
BROOKLYN NETS (50-34) at CHICAGO BULLS (46-38)
Line & Total: Chicago -3.5 & 181.5
After a big win on Monday to even up the series with Brooklyn, Chicago looks to keep the momentum going on Thursday when it returns home for Game 3.
The Bulls looked miserable in Game 1, but responded with an eight-point victory, 90-82, over the Nets in Game 2. That is how the season has looked all season. It hasn't been pretty at times for Chicago, but the club eventually finds a way to get the job done. The Nets are 4-2 ATS (1-5 SU) at United Center over the past three seasons, and have also been a great road team at 23-18 (SU and ATS) overall this season. The Bulls have struggled to put teams away on their home court, going 13-28 ATS (32%) despite a decent 24-17 SU mark. Brooklyn is 7-5 SU (8-4 ATS) with exactly two days' rest, but Chicago has been horrible in this scenario, going 7-13 SU (6-14 ATS). And as poor of a wager that the Nets have been after an SU loss this season (14-19 ATS, 42%), the Bulls are only 16-29 ATS (36%) following an SU win.
The Nets looked great in Saturday's Game 1, but were horrendous in Monday's Game 2. They were out-rebounded 44-39 and shot just 35.4% from the field (4-of-21 threes) as a team. PG Deron Williams must do a better job on Thursday, because as he goes, the team goes. In Game 1 he was brilliant (22 points), but in Game 2 he couldn't hit a shot (1-for-9 FG) nor was he aggressive enough in finding his rhythm, finishing with just eight points, but also dishing out 10 assists with a mere two turnovers. C Brook Lopez continues to play well for Brooklyn as he tallied 21 points (7-of-14 FG), five rebounds and three blocks in Monday's loss. PF Reggie Evans didn't rebound the ball like he normally does though, finishing with just eight rebounds and a minus-12 rating on Monday. The Nets are going to need SG Joe Johnson to perform better if they are going to take control back in this series. Johnson went 6-for-18 against the Bulls in Game 2 for 17 points, four assists and four rebounds. He will need to start shooting the ball better to give the Nets a second go-to option on the wing. SF Gerald Wallace also needs to show up on Thursday after a horrendous Game 2 where he scored two points on 1-of-7 shooting with a game-worst, minus-16 rating.
The Bulls responded well to the 106-89 beating they took in Game 1, and came back and won Game 2 by holding Brooklyn to 82 points. Chicago dominated the third quarter of the game, winning that period 22-11 and never looking back after that. SF Luol Deng stepped up on Monday after he was seemingly absent in Game 1. Deng went 7-of-17 from the field with 15 points, 10 rebounds and four assists. His defense was also superb, as he finished with two blocks and one steal. PF Carlos Boozer continued to play well for Chicago with 13 points and 12 rebounds, giving him 19.0 PPG and 10.0 RPG for the series. The X-factor in this series is C Joakim Noah, who has been playing despite a nagging foot injury. Noah was non-existent in Game 1 with four points and five rebounds, but played very well in his 25 minutes in Game 2, tallying a double-double with 11 points and 10 boards. If the Bulls can get more positive minutes from C Nazr Mohammed, who scored eight points on 4-of-5 shooting Monday, it will really ease the burden on head coach Tom Thibodeau. PG Nate Robinson has also had a strong series offensively with 14.0 PPG on 52% shooting.
LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS (58-26) at MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES (56-28)
Line & Total: Memphis -4.5 & 179.5
After dropping both games in Los Angeles, the Grizzlies try to climb back into their first-round series with the Clippers in Thursday's Game 3 back home in Memphis.
The Grizzlies were blown out of Game 1 by a 112-91 score, but played much better defense in Monday's Game 2, and nearly pulled out the victory, losing 93-91 after Chris Paul made a last-second floater. That gives L.A. nine straight victories (5-3-1 ATS) during a streak that has seen the team score 104.8 PPG on 50% FG and 36% threes. Memphis is happy to return home, where it is 32-9 SU and 23-16-2 ATS (59%) this season, including 14-1 SU (8-7 ATS) in the past 15 games. But that one SU defeat came to the Clippers, 91-87 on April 13. Los Angeles is a solid 24-17 SU on the road this season, but just 20-21 ATS. The Clippers are 13-7 SU (11-8-1 ATS) in the past three years versus Memphis, which includes a 5-1 SU mark (4-2 ATS) this season. Los Angeles is also much better with two days' rest, going 14-3 SU (12-4-1 ATS) in this scenario, compared to the Grizzlies' 10-2 SU record, but subpar 5-6-1 ATS mark after a couple days off.
The Clippers have had a tremendous series offensively with 102.5 PPG on 51.3% FG, but they shot terribly from three-point range in Monday's Game 2, making just 2-of-15 threes. But it has been the defense that has been the difference in this series, limiting Memphis to 91 points in both games and holding a decisive 87-61 rebounding edge in the two games. The Clippers produced a league-leading 9.6 steals per game during the regular season, but have less than half of that (4.5 SPG) so far in the series. PG Chris Paul has been the star of the series with 23.5 PPG (57% FG), 8.0 APG, 3.0 RPG and 1.5 SPG. He's committed just two turnovers in his 69 minutes of action. Four other Los Angeles players have also averaged double-figures so far this series. PF Blake Griffin has 15.5 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 3.5 APG and 1.5 BPG, while SG Jamal Crawford has knocked down 14.0 PPG on 11-of-22 shooting. Two other Clippers players have been even hotter from the floor, as PG Eric Bledsoe has 11.5 PPG on 10-of-13 FG (77%), while SF Caron Butler has 11.0 PPG on 10-of-15 shooting (67%). C DeAndre Jordan has scored a total of only seven points (3-of-6 FG), but has 16 rebounds in the series, and posted four blocks in Game 2. The one player that had a poor performance Monday was SG Chauncey Billups, who scored just five points on 2-of-8 FG with a team-worst minus-11 rating. In Game 1, Billups tallied 14 points and a +14 rating. Although the L.A. starters combined for a minus-33 rating on Monday, the six bench players posted a stellar +43 combined rating.
Despite the pedestrian point totals, the Grizzlies have actually shot pretty well in this series, making 46% FG despite a poor 7-of-23 three-point clip. Their defense has been outstanding at FedEx Forum this season, holding visitors to a mere 87.0 PPG on 42.7% FG and 31.8% threes. And despite getting outrebounded, points in the paint are nearly even in this series at 96-94 favoring the Clippers. If the Grizzlies are going to get back in this series, PF Zach Randolph has to stay out of foul trouble, picking up five personals in each of the first two games. That has limited him to 13.0 PPG and 6.0 RPG in the postseason, numbers well below what he did against L.A. in the regular season (14.8 PPG, 12.0 RPG). PG Mike Conley has admittedly struggled to keep Chris Paul in check, but he was still able to score a playoff-career-high 28 points in Game 2, and is averaging 20.0 PPG, 7.0 APG and 2.0 SPG for the series. C Marc Gasol has also had a strong offensive series with 16.5 PPG, but has just nine rebounds in the two games combined. SG Tony Allen was a monster on the glass Monday with a game-high 10 boards to go along with 16 points on 6-of-9 shooting. Starting SF Tayshaun Prince has been dreadful this postseason, scoring just eight points on 3-of-15 shooting. PF Darrell Arthur had some key buckets during his team's fourth-quarter comeback on Monday, finishing with nine points (4-of-5 FG), but had the worst rating on the team (minus-11).

Learning The Basic Casino Jargon (Part 3)
Casinos and the whole gambling world have a lingo of their own, a whole set of terms, such as the "Double Down", and it can all be somewhat confusing to the inexperienced player. The idea of this series of posts is to have a list accessible to our readers and that can be useful to you when you hear one of these expressions.
To accomplish this, we are making a list all the terminology in alphabetical order so it's easier to find what you are looking for, here is the third part of the list:
Hand: It is what we call the cards that you are holding, also what happens during a card game in between shuffles.
Hit : A hit is what you call it when you want to take another card during a hand of blackjack.
Texas Hold'Em: This is a type of poker game
Hole Card: In blackjack, the hole card is a facedown card that the dealer gets. In Stud and Hold'em Poker, the facedown cards get dealt to each player.
House Edge: It is a percentage of every bet that the casino retains. In traditional casinos, the winning bet is usually paid with a less than the true odds so that it generates some income to the casino.
Inside Bet: On a game of Roulette, the inside bet is the one placed on any number or a small combination of numbers
Insurance: On a game of blackjack, you are offered insurance when the dealer's first card facing up is an ace. When the insurance bet is played, the wins are double if the dealer has a natural blackjack, but it is a loss if the dealer doesn't.
Jackpot: This is usually referred as a big win on a slot machine; it is also the name for the cumulative prize.
Joker: A figure that can be used as a wild card, the Joker is the 53rd card in the deck
Keno Board: Is the electronic board where the winning Keno numbers are displayed
Kicker: In a draw poker game, it's an odd high card held that doesn't contribute to a straight or a flush, usually an ace or a king.
Limit: It refers to any game where there is a fixed limit on how much can be wagered or raised per round on a poker game.
Marker: A check that can be written at the gaming tables by a player who has established credit with the casino.
Muck: When a player cannot win or did not win the pot, the act of throwing away the cards is called the muck. Once they are mucked they cannot be used to win.
Natural: In blackjack, a natural is a two-card hand of twenty-one points. In baccarat a natural is a two-card total of eight, or nine.
How many of these expressions have you heard before?
