We were given the smaller lock-out portion of a condo. Very small. Two double beds did not work well for my husband who is 6.1. Old decor - sheets on... the bed were off as soon as we got into it as the bottom sheet was not fitted. Closet had only 5 hangers - not enough to hang all our clothes. Oddly enough, the bathroom was a good size. it is centrally located for hikers and we were there for the Cafe Lafayette dinner train. Nothing exceptional to say about the place. by Helen Van Wormer from New York on 10/01/13

Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples. If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a) make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at: http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites. (c) Finally, you can Banish Yourself From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org.

Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr photography database, allowing search by: tags(keywords); Flickr photography groups; Flickr users, their contacts, and favorites; free text; the Flickr Explore algorithm for interestingness. Flickr Hive Mind can also be an effective tool to identify photography with licenses that allow non-commercial (and sometimes) commercial use. Written by: Nathan Siemers. Inspired by (and thanks to) Flickr Leech. Dedicated to Anna and her Flickritis. If you find your login does not work, perhaps your browser has disabled the cookies that I use to track your session.

Any revenue generated through advertisement on this site is used only to cover the cost of keeping the site online, beyond that Fiveprime donates to charitable organizations (also, there are no ads on User pages).

I don't recall Peyton winning the VOlS a NC. Let's face it he is where he is because of Archie, Eli, on the other hand had to get out from under big bros shawdow, and look at him shine now, that was all Eli, not Peyton nor Archie. And yes Tee took the VOLS in 98 to bring home the gold. You all are talking about Kiffin, bringin daddy with him, so did Peyton. Tee could've done it anywhere!!!!!!!!
Peyton brought daddy w/ him? ACTUALY... Eli is the one who went to daddy's school. and remember when Archie ranted and raved and made sure that Peyton got traded after being drafted by the Chargers??? Oh wait, that wasnt Peyton... it was Eli. Good try on that one!!! What is it that Archie has done for Peyton again??? Look at the numbers between Manning and Martin... I'm not bashing Tee, love him top death actualy... but be realistic. and stop w/ your ignorant theories

HCM City clamps down on helmet vendors
HA NOI (VNS)— The HCM City's People's Committee has asked its 24 districts to ban shops selling substandard motorbike helmets by the end of the year.

The committee also urged market-watch forces to co-operate with agencies to inspect helmet production and trading establishments in the city.
According to local authorities, there are 700 helmet trading establishmentsm including nearly 200 shops doing business on streets and pavements in the city's centre and outskirts.
In the first half of the year, HCM City's Market Watch Department has made 280 inspections and seized more than 11,200 made-in-China, illegally imported - and dangerous - helmets. – VNS

Seven Hours To Adventure!
I launched the project at 10:31 PM, local time, last night, before heading to bed. Well. There was some Skyrim in there, too. But mostly before heading to bed.
By 5:23 AM, the funding hit 100%. And then it kept going ...
During the night, my phone managed to shut itself off (it does that) and took my alarm with it, so I slept in, and ... well, turns out Kickstarter is the new caffeine, because what an eye-opener! Geez, thank you guys! Every cent will shape the budget of this project and it looks like our little Risus module is going to be nicely filled-out! With the budget where it sits right now (and we're still not even at the 24-hour mark) the page-count has already doubled from a likely 8-pager to a likely 16-pager with some extras, and that's pretty intensely sweet for a single-night Risus module.
For those keeping track with calculators, the way it boils down is something like this: You take the current total pledge, knock away 10% of that (for Kickstarter's cut and Amazon's cut), knock away any expenses necessary to provide rewards (printing and shipping, travel and hotel, that kind of stuff), and then divide the remainder by both $70 and $40 (to produce a low-high range). That's how many pages of adventure material (ballpark estimate) the funding will produce (allowing for the costs of things that aren't budgeted as "pages" like maps, player handouts, Web updates and so on). And, of course, a "page" of Risus adventure material contains more adventure than most other such pages, because Risus doesn't exactly pack it full of stat-blocks ... it'll all be stuff. 8-24 pages is the the spread of possible page-counts per module, and the possibilities fall into place from there.
Your generosity to the community has already paid for a Risus module, and I'm looking forward to making it. We're already there. Annnnnnnd ... we have 25 days to go (I figured ending it on Game-of-Thrones-Comes-Back-On-HBO-Day would mean that, when the project deadline hit, I'd be in a good mood no matter how it went. This is my idea of "logic").
So ... at this point, it's just down to: how high do we want to see that sucker climb? Will one module grow to two or three? Maybe so ... that'd be exciting.
But it's already time to celebrate, so hats off, dice out, and (on my end) pens, colored pencils, and paper at the ready ...

Early Adopter: As above, and when the new edition of Risus is completed next year, you'll get it 30 days in advance of the public release (if you're an IOR member, you'll get the new Risus Companion 30 days early as well). This reward (added late in the game) is included in all higher tiers, even if they don't mention it or imply it might not be.

Estimated delivery: -
Pledge $50 or more
You selected21 backers Limited (79 left of 100)
Scout Equipped: I'll be producing a limited-run softcover book collecting the entire output of this project, including both the first and second adventures (and more if they happen!), plus the contents of the production archive, plus EXTRA STUFF. I'll also throw in Risus itself and a few more things to round it out (I hope you'll be genuinely surprised by some of it!), so it'll be a groovy book of ... cool stuff. This particular book will ONLY exist for the purposes of this reward. Each copy issued will be signed and numbered, with numbers issued in the order the rewards are claimed. I'll also throw in the obligatory extra stick-figure doodle when I sign it, of course (and I'll take requests on your doodle, just remember I really seriously can't draw for beans). Pledge amount includes shipping within the continental U.S.; add $15 if I'll need to ship it elsewhere, thanks! Note that while most of these rewards "stack" like matryoshka dolls, with each larger tier including each smaller one, this reward is one of those NOT included in that daisy-chain. This reward IS included in any reward of $150 or more, but is included automatically in no other (claiming it automatically grants you the results of the $1, $5, and $25 rewards, as well). If you want TWO or THREE copies (the limit is three), add $50 per additional copy (no need to adjust further for shipping, even if outside the Continental U.S.) Note that since this reward will be collecting material from the project's entire output, not just the first module, the expected delivery date is later than most.

Scout ENCUMBERED: This is just like Scout Equipped (above, complete with the book and all) except you're MORE equipped! I've been on the horn with dice manufacturers arranging some snazzy CUSTOM D-SIXES to commemorate this event. This particular design will be unique to this Kickstarter and not repeated. Taking this reward gets you a full Risus-playable set of SIX custom dice (see Update #17 for more), in addition to all the other benefits and inclusions of Scout Equipped. Same shipping rules apply (your book[s] and dice will ship at the same time in the same package). You can also add ADDITIONAL sets of dice (for higher-piles-of-dice stacking purposes, or as gifts, or eBay fodder or whatever) for $25 per set. This reward is included in all tiers of $100 and above, automatically (and with those tiers, you can also choose to add more if you want multiple books and/or dice-sets).

You selected1 backer Limited (19 left of 20)
Scout Decorated: Identical to "Scout ENCUMBERED" in ALL ways, except you _also_ get one free *original illustration* (either an LCB or a map) from one of the adventures, tucked into your copy of the book. This will be a randomly-selected piece from the stock of loose illustrations, and thus this reward-tier is necessarily limited in number. Obviously, it won't be great art (LCBs, natch) but it'll be a unique memento, and you can have fun comparing it to the digital version everyone else sees (because yes, they're so humble I have to process them in Photoshop, for real).

I do a separate project notebook (a physical composition book, journal or other hardcopy notebook) for every project I do. This is where I draft the text (sometimes some, sometimes most, sometimes all), try maps on for size, outline, write my name in the margins to pass the time, etc. The one for the main adventure-module will be a doozy! And if you take this reward, IT IS YOURS: uncensored, doodly, raw creative-process nonsense, fresh from the felt-tip pen (not included; get your own pen). There may also be mustard stains; I can't predict that sort of thing. There WILL be stick figures. Pledge amount includes shipping within the continental U.S.; add $15 if I'll need to ship it elsewhere, thanks! Note that while most of these rewards "stack" like matryoshka dolls, with each larger tier including each smaller one, this reward is one of those NOT included in that daisy-chain.

My own personal copy of Risus Excessively Deluxe. It's the softcover version, hand-covered in protective plastic and in great shape (not because I don't game with it a lot ... just because I never have to look stuff up in the middle of a game, mainly, because ... well, Risus). This is a one-of-a-kind item (literally, I'll be ordering a replacement for myself!), and while it already has my name in it (in case I lose it!) I'll also (A) inscribe it (B) doodle extra stick-figures in it (C) throw in a few odd items to use as bookmarks and (D) doodle odd comments throughout the book before I send it out (even if you ask me not to). Pledge amount includes shipping within the continental U.S.; add $15 if I'll need to ship it elsewhere, thanks! Note that while most of these rewards "stack" like matryoshka dolls, with each larger tier including each smaller one, this reward is one of those NOT included in that daisy-chain.

In this chapter, we created a bigger example which enabled you to apply a lot of the concepts you learned about in previous chapters. First, you defined a modular application structure based on NetBeans modules. You created a module, enabling your example application to play MP3 files. The module contains the JMF classes, as well as the MP3 plugin.
To handle MP3 files within the NetBeans Platform, you created an MP3 file type, as explained in Chapter 7. Next, you included an ID3 library in your NetBeans Platform Application, implementing an MP3 player service module. In this module, you also implemented a small GUI for the player.
Next, you created playlist functionality. To that end, you created your own node view and node container. To implement drag-and-drop functionality from the Media Library window, you extended your Node

Woman meets tiger in bathroom
The big cat had escaped briefly after its turn in the ring Saturday at the Isis Shrine Circus in Salina. Staff members blocked off the concourses at the Bicentennial Center as the tiger wandered into the bathroom, where one of the doors was blockaded.
About that time, Salina resident Jenna Krehbiel decided she needed to use the restroom. When she walked in the door that hadn't been blocked off, she found a tiger standing about 2 feet away.
"You don't expect to go in a bathroom door, have it shut behind you and see a tiger walking toward you," Krehbiel said.
Krehbiel said the tiger "wasn't the biggest one" performing, but she estimated it was more than 250 pounds.
The tiger was captured within minutes and returned to its enclosure.
Krehbiel, a social worker, said she didn't scream or run because she is trained to stay calm.
"Looking back, it was a scary ordeal," she said. "At the time, I was thinking I just needed to get out."
Krehbiel said her 3-year-old daughter had a different reaction.
"My daughter wanted to know if it had washed its hands," Krehbiel said. "That was her only concern. I think that shows the thoughts of children and that they wouldn't have known there was danger."
As far as future trips to the circus, Krehbiel isn't sure.
"We'll see," Krehbiel said. "I prefer a zoo, where I know they won't get loose."
Critical thinking challenge: What should you do if you encounter a tiger?
- Posted on April 23, 2013
i would of slowly walked out of the bathroom then when i was out i would of ran to the nearest person who could help face a giant 250 pound tiger
It would be really weird to walk into a bathroom and see a tiger in there. I would have ran out of the bathroom right away.
I think you should slowly walk away not run. Or It might scare the tiger and it could hurt you possibly. That's crazy!! I would freak out!!! That's funny about what her daughter said.
If I found a tiger in the bathroom I would freak out and maybe faint. It would be the scariest thing in my life. Good thing she got out of there ok.
I'm glad she stayed calm, If she didn't the tiger might jump her. If I saw a tiger in the bathroom I would probably have a brain fart saying, " Is that a tiger?" I would probably be dumb and try to pet it.
I would freak out! That's hilarious that's the the only thing her daughter cared about was that if the tiger washed his hands or not! I'm glad the lady was safe though.
I would of quickly run out of there in no time! Especially in a bathroom where the is probably only one way in and out!! :0 I will definatly watch out when my family goes to the circus! ;)
I think this story was really weird/funny it was funny to me because you don't really see a tiger in the bathroom when you need to go.To me I could read this story more then one time.
Critical thinking challenge: What should you do if you encounter tiger? If I ever encounter with a tiger in a bathroom I will run for my life because why will a tiger be in a bathroom I would say to myself forget using the bathroom I'm running life comes first also family comes first but if my family wasn't there then my life comes first.
Wow, I would of been scared if I saw a tiger. Especially, if I wasn't expecting it! If that happened to me, I would never go back to the circus again, I would stick to the zoo.
That would probably be the most memorable moment ever. If I was locked up in a bathroom with a tiger, I would definitely be freaked out. I am not sure weather I would run or be frozen in shock. This experience must have been horrifying, but thankfully no one got hurt. I do not know about her, but I probably would not be going to any kind of zoo any time soon. I love the fact that her daughter was concerned about if the tiger washed his hands. I would definitely stay away from anything with tigers in it, or people who own tigers.

Florida man attempts to pay utility bill with crack
On Monday in Deltona, Florida, a man tried to pay his water bill by hand-delivering an envelope containing three grams of crack-cocaine.
Upon receiving the rock, the cashier at the local water office freaked out — thinking it was some sort of poison, much like the supposed toxic parcels that were delivered to government officials earlier this year. But, alas, this is Florida, the territory in which it's not entirely implausible to imagine crack-cocaine being exchanged like wampum beads in exchange for gas, heat, electricity and a running faucet.
The suspect vanished from the scene, which was evacuated immediately. The Volusia County Sheriff's Office are currently in pursuit of the customer, whose motive for delivering the envelope is unclear. Did he drop the wrong envelope at the counter? Your guess is as good as theirs.

Roy Hall
Roy Hall
It's likely that no one will ever be able to sort out 100 percent of the truth about Roy Hall's life -- especially as he used a borrowed name for much of his career, and his legend still seems to get printed in lieu of what he claimed to scholar/historian Martin Hawkins was the truth. The legend is pretty well known in rock & roll circles -- born James Faye Hall in Big Stone Gap, VA, in 1922, he learned the piano from a local bluesman who was also a dedicated drinker, with the result that he became a keyboard wizard and also a serious drunkard when he was barely out of his teens. The truth was a bit more mundane, as he explained to Hawkins in a couple of meetings in the mid-'70s. He was, indeed, born James Faye Hall in Big Stone Gap in 1922, but he was introduced to the piano by his mother, and she was his first teacher. He discovered early on that he was a natural pianist, capable of playing by ear as a boy, and formal lessons proved superfluous. He absorbed all manner of influences around him, including country and blues, and one of those players whom he did cite as a major influence was Piano Red aka Willie Perryman, the itinerant pianist 11 years his senior, who began making his name in juke joints, honky tonks, and barrelhouses in Tennessee (and Hall grew up right on the Tennessee border with Virginia), Alabama, and Georgia. Rather ironically, both men, though born a long time before its advent, would play important roles in the early history of rock & roll.

Linux 3.9 Through Early Linux 3.13 Kernel Benchmarks
3 December 2013 -
2 Comments
While I'm waiting for development activity on the Linux 3.13 kernel to settle down a bit more before delivering comprehensive benchmarks looking at the Linux 3.13 kernel performance changes across the various covered subsystems, up this morning are some early benchmarks of the Linux 3.13 Git kernel and benchmarking every major release going back to Linux 3.9.
Oibaf Keeps Making Ubuntu GPU Driver Upgrades Easy
30 November 2013 -
6 Comments
For those that may have some time this holiday weekend and are looking to better enhance the performance of Ubuntu's open-source graphics drivers, one of the easiest ways to do so is by enabling the Oibaf repository for easily downloading and installing newer versions of the Mesa/Gallium3D drivers and other X.Org related components. Here are some more details and current benchmarks of enabling the Oibaf PPA over Ubuntu 13.10.
13-Way NVIDIA VDPAU Video Decode Benchmarks

It's been a while since last putting out any hardware-accelerated video decode benchmarks of NVIDIA's Video Decode and Presentation API for Unix (VDPAU). However, after updating qVDPAUtest to support building on modern platforms, here's a round of thirteen NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards being benchmarked under VDPAU.
Linux 3.0, 3.4, 3.10, 3.12 AMD Kernel Benchmarks
12 November 2013 -
9 Comments
How does the Linux kernel performance compare if simply bouncing between some of the recent long-term kernel releases? Well, to try to answer that question on Phoronix today we have benchmarks of the Linux 3.0.101, 3.4.68, 3.10.18, and 3.12.0 kernel releases tested from an AMD Opteron system with Radeon graphics.
Running The Latest GNOME Wayland Shell On Fedora 20
28 October 2013 -
20 Comments
With the Fedora 20 beta coming up I decided to see where the latest Fedora 20 packages are now at for their support of Wayland and the GNOME Shell Wayland session. In particular, looking at whether the session is still buggy and how the XWayland performance is for Linux gaming.
XMir Performance Measured On Ubuntu 13.10
19 October 2013 -
20 Comments
While the Ubuntu 13.10 desktop isn't using Mir/XMir by default, the packages are available within the archive for those wanting to test out the next-generation display server for Ubuntu. To see how the 2D/3D performance is when running under XMir with the Unity System Compositor, I ran some new benchmarks using this week's Ubuntu 13.10 release.
Liquorix 3.11 Kernel Benchmarks
17 October 2013 -

It's been several kernel releases since last benchmarking the Liquorix kernel, an optimized version of the Linux kernel that's advertised as "built using the best configuration and kernel sources for desktop, multimedia, and gaming workloads." In Liquorix having out their version of the Linux 3.11 kernel since late September, here are some benchmarks comparing Liquorix to recent mainline versions of the vanilla Linux kernel.
Nouveau Performance Is Faster With Linux 3.12
15 October 2013 -
7 Comments
In following the AMD Radeon performance is incredible on Linux 3.12 article that benchmarked ten different AMD graphics cards on the Linux kernel, followed by the reason why AMD Radeon graphics are faster on Linux 3.12, here's now some benchmarks of the open-source NVIDIA driver with GeForce graphics cards. The testing in this article is a few NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards with the Nouveau driver when comparing the Linux 3.11 and 3.12 kernels in a similar fashion to the AMD Linux OpenGL performance testing. Like the AMD results, there are some notable gains to find with the yet-to-be-released 3.12 kernel.
Here's Why Radeon Graphics Are Faster On Linux 3.12
15 October 2013 -
108 Comments
Yesterday I published benchmarks showing the AMD Radeon graphics being much faster on Linux 3.12. Ten graphics cards were benchmarked and many of them were showing rather remarkable OpenGL frame-rate performance improvements when moving from the Linux 3.11 to Linux 3.12 Git kernel. This large comparison came after benchmarks I did this weekend on a single Radeon HD graphics card showed the Linux 3.12 kernel delivering the best performance of any recent kernel release. The only thing was, this AMD Radeon performance improvement baffled the upstream developers. The AMD developers were taken off-guard and didn't have an explanation why the Linux 3.12 kernel performance is faster... Now thanks to automated testing and bisecting by the Phoronix Test Suite, I have an answer.
Intel Core i7 Haswell Benchmarks On Linux 3.12
14 October 2013
So far in our testing of the Linux 3.12 kernel we have found that there are some file-system performance improvements and most noticeable is AMD Radeon performance improvements for the open-source driver. We have also found the AMD APU performance hasn't changed much and Ivy Bridge graphics are rather unchanged among other mute workloads, but is there any other worthwhile performance improvements to be discovered? Our latest Linux 3.12 Git tests are from the System76 Galago UltraPro with Core i7 4750HQ "Haswell" processor as we benchmark every major kernel release going back to Linux 3.8.

Pistol permit holders can "opt out"
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Pistol permit holders who want their information kept private and confidential can go to Erie County's website and obtain a form to "opt out" from public disclosure.
State Police will make forms available on February 15th, and Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs says his office is encouraging permit holders to visit their website www.erie.gov/optout and enter their email address, so they can receive the form electronically.
According to Jacobs, this will give permit holders time to complete the form and give the Clerk's Office time to seat the records.
Details from the Erie County Clerk's Office:
Pistol permit holders have 60 days after the form are made available to submit completed forms to the Clerk's Office. Permit holders can access the on-line request by going to www.erie.gov/optout to enter their e-mail address. Once the Clerk receives the "opt-out" form from the New York State Police, his office will immediately send out an electronic version to those who subscribed. After the permit holder has completed the form in its entirety, it can be mailed to: Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs, c/o Pistol Permit Office, 92 Franklin Street, Buffalo, NY 14202.

Ohio prison officials have reported another inmate suicide, the ninth this year.
Kimball Kenaga, 47, was found hanging in a closet Wednesday afternoon in the mental-health unit at Ross Correctional Institution in Chillicothe. He used a cord from a vacuum cleaner to hang himself from a sprinkler head in the ceiling, the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction said.
Kenaga, who was serving a 30-year-to-life sentence for murder in Scioto County, killed himself at the same time Ohio has two national experts in the state studying the prison system's suicide-prevention programs. A report is expected to be finalized next month.
A review of video conducted after his death showed Kenaga entering a supply closet. No one else entered the closet, and Kenaga did not come out. He was discovered by a corrections officer who couldn't at first open the closet door because Kenaga had tied one end of the cord to the door handle.
When he was removed, Kenaga showed no signs of life and was pronounced dead at Adena Medical Center at 3:22 p.m. Wednesday.
Prison officials said a suicide note was found in Kenaga's shirt pocket; the contents were not disclosed.
The State Highway Patrol is investigating.
In the past three months, the prisons have had four inmate suicides — including high profile inmates Ariel Castro, the Cleveland kidnapper, and Death Row inmate Billy Slagle, who was days away from execution.

"Winter Bootcut"
Lauren Engeman on 9/29/2012 6:46:28 PM
Review: Great for the cold Missouri winters. The water reppelant is nice for dumping buckets in the winter also.
"Great when you don't have a covered arena"
Kelly O'Neill on 9/26/2012 10:13:15 PM
Review: While I ihaven't tried these breeches yet, the concept is brilliant! I live in the Pacific Northwest and ride outside even in our windy/raining winters. These breeches will be great!
"Truly unisex!"
Kristi on 9/26/2012 11:35:30 AM
Review: I bought a pair of these for myself and fell in LOVE with the soft fleece inside and the tough outside. They truly do block the wind. I'll wear these from fall till spring. I LOVE the tall size offering too - much much appreciated as truly tall (ie 35+ inseam not 33 like so many other manufacturers call tall) bootcut tights are very hard to find. Kerrits, I hope you're reading this because I have a suggestion. My 6'2 210 lb hubby also loved my Wind Pros so I took a chance and ordered him a pair ... More details
"Built for Cold Climates"
Judy on 9/24/2012 3:38:49 PM
Review: These are my favorite winter breeches. They are very durable, and dust/dirt/hay/snow brush right off. I will wear them doing errands after a trip to the barn, or shoveling snow and then forget to take them off once I am in the house! I could easily spend an entire day in since they are very comfortable.
"Perfect for Western riding in the winter!"
Aileen Russell on 9/24/2012 6:29:28 AM
Review: I am a huge fan of the Kerrits Microcord bootcut riding tights, so when I saw a similar style in a winter fabric I knew I had to have these! If these were in my budget, I would jump right on it, but alas- my horse comes first! I have a pair of powerstretch breeches that I love, but I prefer a bootcut style for western riding- these breecehes would be absolutely perfect!
Kristi on 9/20/2012 9:59:55 AM
Review: I fell in love with the Kerrits microcord bootcut tights this summer (the talls are long enough for my 35" inseam and the microcord fabric is awesome) so as cooler weather approached I looked to Kerrits to see what was available. The WindPro bootcut come in TALL (yey again!) so I ordered a pair and instantly fell in love. The fabric is FABULOUS - a perfect combo of tough and comfortable. I can imagine riding in them from 20 to 65 degrees. They are as comfy as my fleece-lined yoga pants and I am ... More details

Usually a long road to The Show

I'm sorry, Keith Law. I'm sorry, Baseball America. I'm sorry, guys at MLB.com who put on the big show every June. I'm sorry, but I just can't get all that excited about the first-year player draft (or "the draft," as lazy people like me call it).
Through 2005, 11 pitchers had been selected with the first pick in the draft. The first pick. How successful were those 11 pitchers? They won 810 games and lost 831. Of course, that doesn't tell us much about the particular pitchers. So let's look at individual accomplishments.
Winning 300 games is nice. None of those 11 pitchers won 300 games. Or 200. Or 165 (Mike Moore tops the list with 161 wins).

You have the perfect lamp and you've carefully chosen a shade for it, but what kind of light bulb should you choose? You may not think much about light bulbs, but the kind you choose has the greatest impact on the overall effect and effectiveness of your lamp. Many people make the mistake of buying a light bulb more powerful than they need for a particular lamp. This unfortunately can make a lamp so intense or distracting that it is rarely used. The simple solution to this problem is to use a smaller bulb. Most table and accent lamps require no more than a 60-watt bulb, even if they are rated for something much higher. While it's very important to never exceed the recommended bulb wattage for a lamp, there is nothing wrong with using a less-powerful bulb.
Aside from wattage, there are other factors to consider when choosing a light bulb. Light bulbs come in four basic types: incandescent, fluorescent, compact fluorescent and halogen.
About the Collection Known as The Painter of Light™, Thomas Kinkade became recognized as America's most collected living artist. Reflecting his modest background, Kinkade painted bucolic scenes with themes of simple pleasures and inspiring messages. With each brushstroke, Thom eloquently captured the beauty in the world with an instantly recognizable use of color and light.
As a devout Christian, Kinkade used his gift as a vehicle to communicate and spread inherent life-affirming values. Kinkade credited the Lord for both the ability and the inspiration to create his paintings. His goal as an artist was to touch people of all faiths, to bring peace, and joy into their lives through the images he created. The letters he received every day testify to the fact that he had achieved this goal.
As an Authorized Thomas Kinkade gallery, ShopHQ is proud to pay tribute with limited editions, framed art, canvas prints and other licensed products. Capture the beauty and tranquility of one the most widely collected artists in the world and display one of his masterpieces in your own home.
About the Guest With more than 25 years of experience in the art business, Thomas' younger brother Patrick divides his time as a professor at Texas Christian University (TCU), and as an active member of the management team at Thomas Kinkade Company. A previous gallery owner and author of several books on Thomas Kinkade's travels, Patrick speaks regularly on Thomas Kinkade and his evolution as an artist. He is also actively involved in coordinating the Heritage tour and main events at Thomas Kinkade Galleries. Join Patrick for his first hand insight, as a brother and as an expert on the "Painter of Light."
