Someone broke my mirror last winter, the glass was hanging by the wires (same features as yours, but part number is probably different). I went to dealer to get one, they told me glass was around $250 and new mirror around $500. He didn't have one in stock, so I said "I'll be back" (guess I was quoting Arnold, lol), anyway, upon closer inspection, the post from the turning motor was also broken, so I got a new mirror.
The $250 was Canadian, I checked on line and found US prices a lot cheaper, I bought a new GM mirror, in the US for $220.Ray

10-19-2012, 08:55 AM #3A friend of mine had the same issue. He bought a piece of glass that just stuck over the old one. It has holes in it for the signal lights to shine thru. It was around $30. I do not think that the heated feature works anymore, but is was better then $200. He went to a local autoglass place and they had it. This place has it for around $65 http://www.wheelskin.com/burcomirror...RADO&year=2004 I think that you would want part#
Or Ebay has them with the backing plate, so you just snap the new one on http://www.ebay.com/itm/MIRROR-GLASS...sories&vxp=mtrBUR-3254HS

Thanks a lot guys, I have been looking into it and have found good prices on Amazon I'm just trying to find one that will work with all the features I have. I have used the VIN decoder I'm just making sure I have the right one before I pull the trigger.

12-21-2012, 12:07 AM #5LOL Just what I was going to recommend. I get all my mirrors from Amazon, and many of the parts I use for vehciel repairs (both engine and cosmetic). It's tough to beat the prices there, even the local shops just shake their heads. And with Prime, I even get free videos. LOL
Some things, like spark plugs are still cheaper local, but if you've got 2 days to wait for it, you can often save 20% or more on expensive parts like throttle bodies, O2 sensors, and the like.

So do I need to order any one specifically since I have the powered, memory, light sensitive, heated, blinkered mirrors, or do I just get the glass with the blinker holes?

If you've ever forgotten to clean your paint brushes and found them firmly encased in rock hard dry paint, this simple, chemical free How-To could save your paint brushes and have you painting again before anyone is any wiser to your dry paint dilemma. Yay!
What You Need
Just your unmoving paint brush and some trusty white vinegar!
A saucepan and your stovetop.
1. Soak the brush in vinegar for an hour or so until you can bend the bristles.
2. Fill a saucepan with vinegar until the brush bristles are covered.
3. Bring the vinegar to a boil and let it simmer for a couple of minutes.
4. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool for a minute before removing the brush.
5. Gently comb the brush with your fingers. The paint will still be attached but will fall away as you comb it.
6. Rinse the brush under running water to release the loose paint.
7. Depending on how much paint there was you may need to repeat steps 5 and 6 a couple of times, but before you know it your paint brush will be ready for another round!
Additional Notes:
This method can involve an open flame so only use this for water based paints.

Mir-C Contact Closure Relay
Contact Closure Inputs on Sender Device
Relay Outputs on Receiver Device
Fast, Reliable Wireless CommunicationTwo Boards Working Together
Mir-C controllers are really two boards that allow contact closure inputs on the first board to control relay outputs on a second board. The sending device is equipped with contact closure inputs, the receiving devise is where the relays are. Both sender and relay devices are included when you purchase a Mir-C pair. Contact closures are read on one controller, data is sent to other controller to turn on or off relays, remote device replies back, busy light flashes to confirm data was received at the other end.
Wireless Range
MirC controllers use different wireless communication technologies giving them ranges of 300 Feet (Short Range), 1-Mile, 2-Mile and up to 15 Miles (Long Range). The wireless protocol will be an 802.15.4 that's FAST, easy to use, and surprisingly reliable. The 300 foot module will be the default module and the prices shown on the web site will reflect this module. The other modules will be available at checkout if you would like to upgrade to a longer range. These ranges are based on a clear line of sight between MirC controllers/antennas, meaning obstacles such as trees, buildings and walls may limit these ranges slightly.
Relay Status
Mir-C devices feature SPDT & SPST relays and are available with the same number of contact closure inputs on the sender as there are relays installed on the remote device. Contact Closure Inputs may only be connected to switches, buttons, or sensors with Contact Closure capability. Not suitable for use in voltage detection applications.
Who's Qualified to Use the Mir-C Series?
Anyone. The Mir-C Series Controllers are the most consumer friendly devices at Relay Pros. Weather you are an electronics engineer or home hobbyist, anyone is qualified to use the Mir-C Series controller
Easy Board Selection
Find the board you need by using the interactive menu to he right. Hover over the Button and select the communication protocol and then the number of inputs/relays you would like installed.
Relay Status
The sending device is also equipped with LEDs that display the status of the remote relay. Status information is verified using 2-way communications. If communication is lost between the remote relay and the sending device, the sending device will turn off the LED. Additionally, every MirC controller is equipped with a Busy/Ready LED. If the Busy LED flashes, this indicates the remote device has successfully received and accepted your contact closure status. If the Busy LED does not flash, the remote device is out of range.
Communication Between Boards
Mir-C devices use 802.15.4, wired and Ethernet two-way communications to ensure the remote device is properly functioning. The Busy LED is always used to indicate a properly functioning remote device. If you do not see the Busy LED flash, then the Mir-C controller is unable to communicate to the remote device. A flashing busy LED is your verification that all communications are functioning properly between Mir-C controllers.
Multiple Mir-C Pairs?
Multiple Mir-C Controllers can be used in one locations. One Pair of Mir-C controllers will not interfere with another Mir-C pair as they are isolated through the way they are designed. Mir-C Devices are paired together before shipment and will only communicate to each other, for this reason they will not interfere with other Mir-C controllers.
Contact Closure Inputs
A Mir-C Sender controller has as many inputs as its mating Mir-C Receiver has Relays. So a pair of 4 relay Mir-C controllers will have 4 relays on the Receiver board and 4 inputs on the Sender board which are used for controlling the relays on the Receiver Board, the same holds true for 1, 2, and 8 relay versions. Users must NEVER apply any voltage to an input on the Mir-C Sender controller, these inputs are for Contact Closure connection only.
Relay Outputs
Mir-C Controllers have 1, 2, 4, or 8 Relays integrated into the circuit board. A relay is similar to a switch. The only difference between a switch and a relay is the actual mechanism for changing the on/off status of the switch. On a switch, you manually push on a piece of metal or plastic to operate the switch. On a relay, an electric current is used to operate the switch. Relays do NOT provide a voltage output. They provide a contact closure output, exactly like the terminals found on a light switch at your local hardware store. Wiring to a relay will be slightly different depending on the model of Mir-C controllers you choose.
Other Communication Options:
MirC Series Relay Controllers Offer three other Communications Options, Including Bluetooth Wireless, wired, and Ethernet communications.
Shop MirC Relays Here
Find the board you need by using the interactive menu below. The Communication Protocols are to the left, this is how the two boards will communicate with each other. Once you decide how they will communicate then select the number of contact closure inputs/relays you would like on the boards. You will be taken to another page where you can simply simply select the board with the correct amperage for the item you are switching.

We are showing you the Norwegian version of our site: would you prefer a different location?
Share this:
Mt. Wilson
Aaron Erbeck flew in from Seattle. Ryan Thompson, Ira Ryan and I from Portland. We just met Cole—who lives with his girlfriend—yesterday and with Trystan Cobbett's combination apartment-compound-loft now completely under siege by amateur fine artists and their works, we're left with only one option. Stay at the Standard, the downtown Los Angeles Standard, a $260 parody of a hotel. The atmosphere is tragically vapid but alluring at the same time, like augmentation and plastic surgery.
We check-in late after our hardman intercity century - Tour of Hollywood, Mulholland, the Santa Monica Mountains, Malibu and Sunset. We are tired and dirty and wearing shoes that go clack-clack and draw too much attention. As if our bib-short shoulder straps spilling over the top of knickers and jeans and angry bee-buzzing King hubs weren't enough. We make our way through the marble foyer where the six-foot black woman wearing a period correct afro and oversized sunglasses is languidly playing house records. She's good. Between that episode and the next, is a gaggle, or is it squad, pod or troop, of 25-year-old Barbie-girls sipping $15 cocktails. Muddled and infused. I'm careful not to over-steer my Ortlieb and it's hastily secured road riding bicycle helmet on the way to the counter where two alert-but-bored employees have seen it all before, even this. Ryan is already checked-in, he's been here on business for the last three days, so he makes for his room and a costume change. He's a local. So it's just Brian Vernor, our photog, Ryan, Ira and me.
Trystan is about to leave, his delivery all but signed for, when Ira Ryan, in true Ira Ryan form, panics. It was too much for him. The 30-foot ceilings, the upholstered islands of various shapes and sizes bearing guests of various shapes and sizes floating in the large sea of modern colors and surfaces that is the lounge. The sublimely delicious lighting. The custom curtains, the security guards in headsets and black suits. He quickly organizes a plan with Trystan and they leave moments later, Ira muttering, like Rainman, his rationale—I need to clean the bikes and wash the bikes. Definitely need to clean the bikes and wash the bikes.
It's now Ryan, Brian and I and the rooftop bar that's a $20 cover if you're not a guest. The light pollution and view of the city is spectacular; it's exhilarating. The white plastic love-yurts and after-market outdoor fireplace is intoxicating even if my $15 drink isn't.
The next morning is hard. My legs hurt from yesterday's epic. Cole is fast enough to make Ira faster than normal. Which is too fast already. Ryan is hurting again. We're both definitely sick with a cold. We leave the hotel and pile impossibly into Trystans's BMW station wagon in which we snake up the 101 to Pasadena and the start of the ride.
Our first choice for breakfast is packed, it's Saturday at nine. On our way back to the car, still hungry, Trystan calls our attention to the place in front of where we are parked. Seconds later, as if on cue, the owner is on the street— "whereareyougoingwehavebreakfasthere". Her desperation and our need to eat find us in an establishment that Ira, clued-in by the décor—bad art and a flat screen—recognizes from a scene in Die Hard 3. The breakfast was bad but calorically on target.
Outside, Cole suggests we change at the Patagonia store down the street. Four bags with shaved legs head in that direction. I change in front of a security camera next to an old hairbrush in a dimly lit parking garage across the street. It's 10:15 and we take stock. The weather is good, maybe 65 and getting warmer by the minute. It's sunny with no wind. It's perfect.

As part of their efforts to be proactive about bullying, a school in Utah notified a kid's parents that he was gay. The kid didn't want to tell them, but hey - gotta keep him safe from bullies.
I wonder, though - does the school "out" geeks to their family members? "Your child is a geek, and that opens up the possibility of being bullied because all he does is play video games and goof off on his computer. He's awkward around girls and we're concerned that he'll never be anything more than a multi-billionaire computer god."
It's a valid question.

John Carter and the Gods of Hollywood
Michael D. Sellers has cataloged all the missteps in his book, John Carter and the Gods of Hollywood. A fan of the work of Edgar Rice Burroughs, he covers the writing of the original novel, A Princess of Mars, and Burroughs interactions with Hollywood, predominantly on the Tarzan films.
Animator Bob Clampett was the first one to attempt to turn the John Carter stories into film, albeit animated. While Clampett produced samples, he was unable to find a backer for the series. At various times, Ray Harryhausen, Disney, and Paramount were interested in the property, but while scripts were written, nothing was produced.
Andrew Stanton first became a fan of John Carter though Marvel's comics adaptations. When the rights became available, he was working on Wall-E and asked Dick Cook, Disney Studios chief, if could direct it as his next project. Cook secured the rights. As Stanton moved onto the project, two questionable decisions were made: setting the budget at $250 million and not casting stars.
Shortly after the budget was set, Dick Cook was out at Disney. It's common in Hollywood for projects to be orphaned when executives are fired. In this case, given Stanton's importance, it was impossible to cancel the project, but Cook's replacement, Richard Ross, was not enthusiastic.
Neither was Robert Iger, who fired Cook. Iger's pattern is to buy established franchises like Marvel and Lucasfilm rather than spend the money to develop franchises in-house. In fact, at the time Cook was giving John Carter a green light, Iger was negotiating to buy Marvel, which would give Disney a line-up of characters all better known to the public than John Carter. And while John Carter was in production, Iger was negotiating with George Lucas for the purchase of the Star Wars franchise, one that would give Disney a much higher profile space adventure than John Carter.
While the studio was willing to allocate a standard marketing budget for the film, it was not willing to spend more. Given the risks associated with the production budget, this could be seen as prudent or foolish. In addition, once Ross was in place, he hired a new director of marketing, MT Carney, who had no experience marketing films. What made it worse is that she was fired before John Carter was released, so there was little continuity in the marketing campaign.
Months went by without marketing activity for the film. The release date was moved from summer to March, which raised questions as to whether the film was strong enough to compete with summer blockbusters. "Of Mars" was dropped from the title, leaving the very generic sounding John Carter. The budget began to attract attention, the implication being that costs were out of control. Stanton's interviews implied that he was less comfortable with live action production than animation, which didn't help the perception that the film was over-budget. In reality he held to the budget, including 18 days of reshoots.
For the March release, the film's main competition would be The Hunger Games. Sellers shows how that film trounced John Carter in creating audience awareness prior to release.
The film did not open with enough box office to suggest it would be profitable, but only 10 days into the release, Disney publicly declared the film a failure and indicated that it would write off $200 million on it. It's unusual for a studio to abandon a film while it is still in release domestically and yet to open all around the world. Sellers explanation is that Richard Ross made the announcement early so that it would be old news by the time Iger next had to meet with the financial press for the quarterly earnings report. It also attached the failure to Richard Ross, who Iger was about to replace. In total, the three executives most responsible for producing and marketing the film -- Dick Cook, MT Carney and Richard Ross -- were all fired. Stanton was sent packing back to Pixar.
Sellers is scrupulous about his statistics and quotes, but less scrupulous when it comes to his own involvement. While he admits to being a Burroughs fan in the introduction, it isn't until the second half of the book that he reveals that he is the proprietor of www.thejohncarterfiles.com, a fan site that collected information about the film prior to its release. He also cut a fan trailer that received a lot of praise for being better than the official trailers and he met with Disney, hoping to involve himself in the film's marketing but was rebuffed. While there is no question about the facts surrounding John Carter, Sellers actions do raise questions about his motives for writing the book. He is not a dispassionate reporter but a spurned fan. Is the book reportage or revenge?
Ultimately, John Carter fell victim to three problems: a budget that made it difficult for the film to be profitable; source material that seemed old hat after influencing other science fiction projects; and a major changing of the guard and focus at Disney's film studio.
Andrew Stanton brought his first live action film in on budget, a major accomplishment considering the difficult logistics of the project, but the merits of the film couldn't overcome the aforesaid problems. Sellers has written a textbook for all the things that can go wrong off a movie set that ultimately affect the success of a film. John Carter isn't unique, just the latest Hollywood film to be mismanaged and cast aside.

This is an excellent evaluation of the behind the scenes action surrounding "John Carter." Our professional practices animation class (basically a business class for animation majors) discussed the issues surrounding this film just last week. It is good to know about the inner workings of the industry as animators so that we can be better prepared. Thank you for sharing.

Whatever one thinks of the movie, the book is a bit too "fan-boy" and un-biased for it's own good. That the Disney studio dropped the ball on the marketing isn't entirely uncommon in Hollywood, but decisions like that aren't made in an entire void. There was just nothing for the audience to really care about; no stakes, either from a character or a plot point of view. No one to root for. The book continually glosses over the films serious flaws in this regard, and instead spends it's time trying to convince a world that rejected it that they're wrong. It's just not that simplistic, and their argument is weakened by their fan-boy fanaticism.

I've yet to read this book, but I have to add that I don't get all the hate over JOHN CARTER as a movie. At its worst, it's a less endearing STAR WARS. No better, no worse. It definitely could not have made SW or WALL-E like numbers, even with the fiercest marketing, but the fashion in which it bombed seemed like deliberate self-sabotage all along.
- March 05, 2013 11:28 AM
After finishing the book I'm left with the same question I had before I started it: How on earth did the manage to spend $100 million on such a non-marketing campaign?

Unfortunately, after wasting an hour on the movie (I walked out of it), I wouldn't wsste another five minutes on the book. I'm curious to see what Disney does with their next $260 million fiasco, the new Wizard of Oz with star, "John Franco" opening this weekend.

Just spent (wasted) a hour today reading about the teardown of the 20 Thousand Leagues Ride at Disney world, a similar story of corporate ineptitude at the House of Mouse.
But they ultimately have the power; fandom don't count for much.
What were some other major film failures due to similar circumstances? - March 07, 2013 10:40 PM
It makes perfect sense that they tore down the 20 Thousand Leagues ride at Disneyworld. It's very low capacity, takes up a lot of real estate, and is wildly expensive to keep up. I don't agree with it, but do understand it!
No one asked for a john carter movie. Very few people even know or care anything about it. The bigger question is why Disney spent $280 million on a novice director with an apparently massive, unjustified ego with virtually no studio supervision. - March 07, 2013 11:09 PM

River City Grille
Online Reservations
River City Grill is a good place to bring kids -- they have a extensive kids' menu and crayons for kids to draw while waiting. I had the Hudson Restaurant Week special menu and the almond cake was very moist.
River City is the rare combination of a neighborhood restaurant and "foodie's choice." Friendly staff who know their clientele if one is a "regular" but are warm and friendly to strangers. The eclectic menu reflects the owner's interest in different cuisines and combines "comfort" foods with some more edgy choices, while not being so extensive that it dilutes quality. And the ingredients are always fresh and top-notch. In short, unpretentious quality. Well worth the money and a drive to Irvington, even if you are not a "neighbor."
Very nice, low-key atmosphere. The service was very attentive without being pushy, food choices were diverse and satisfying. Definitely would return.
Second time visiting and the food was as good as the first visit. Friendly staff, lots of locals, pleasant atmosphere. Goods for light meal or full dinner.
Food was not cooked well, meatballs came cold inside.
We ate there for the first time as a Plsn B anniversary meal. We were very pleasantly surprised. It's a cozy place with very friendly, attentive, but not bothersome service. The whole experience was perfect and we'll go back again without a doubt.
We were a party of 6 and had the good fortune of snagging a corner banquette which always makes for great conversation and revelry. The service was friendly, attentive without being intrusive, and perfectly timed. Drinks were always freshened prior to the food arrival, which is KEY in my book. The food was diverse and inventive. The meat and potato lovers were as pleased as those enjoying more of an ethnic flavor. We were old friends catching up, and never felt rushed. Start to finish, a very enjoyable evening.
2nd time there. Once dinner one brunch. Both great.
You would not think it was much from the outside, but pleasantly surprised by the food and service. Small inside but REALLY enjoyed each course. Priced right. Front area much brighter than rear.
Very nice dining experience. Great surprise.From the outside did not expect the atmosphere that awaited. We had a lovely dinner, food and service were great.. Would definitely dine here again.
My wife and I go fairly often to River City, and every time we walk out of there, we look at each other and start to gush at how the food is absolutely always outstanding and may be the best in Westchester County. The service is similarly outstanding. The mushroom bisque is probably the best soup that either of us has ever had. And my entree this time, grilled shrimp and scallops with kale and white beans, was amazing. We are so impressed with River City and will continue to return there !
Love the food & the staff -- great customer service. Been here many times; referred often.
We met at this restaurant to met with a fellow group, it was very quiet, food and service were great.
Amazing food. Skinny pina cola was awesome. We will go back
Gorgeous top to bottom renovation. Atmosphere & Food was so good we came back for dinner the following night. Never disappoints!
We were just passing through the area and needed to find a fine dining option. We used Open Table to assist and where thrilled with the outcome. The reviews where helpful and accurate. River City Grille had just completed a makeover and the result was a dining experience with good food and a pleasant refreshing ambiance. If we find ourselves passing through again (which is likely) we will definitely stop again!
I have been a fan of River City Grill for years, the new look and refreshed menu is on the mark! Had a great time
River City Grill In Irvington completely renovated and did a nice job. The bar is now in the back with large flat screen TV;s on each wall. Now it is more condusive to have parties or larger groups. The booths are no gone. Food is good. Hope they bring back their famous Butternut Squash soup for the Fall. Overall a nice change. Job well done.
The dining room looks great after the renovation, and we all enjoyed our lunch very much. The beef tacos and the burger were standouts. Very friendly and gracious service.
A friend and I had dinner at the newly renovated River City Grille. We loved it before the renovation and now it's even better. The decor is light and inviting. The food is always spot on. Kuddos to the chef for creating healthy, delicious meals. I love their chickpea cakes. We splurged on dessert as it was my friend's birthday. I had the apple beignets and my friend had the flourless chocolate cake. Both were hits. You can't go wrong with anything here. With so many good choices in restaurants to pick from in Westchester, this is one we keep coming back to over and over again. A real gem of a find.
A first dining experience at this restaurant. My friend is on a gluten free diet and we were both impressed with the separate gluten free menu presented. We split two appetizers and an entree. We enjoyed the food selection that spanned several cuisines-Thai mussels, Korean tacos wrapped in lettuce leaves and a wonderful shrimp and artichoke risotto. Service was very good. Will put this on my return list.
The recent renovation was excellently done. The new color scheme, relocating the bar to the rear of the restaurant, and the new arrangement of the tables all impact positively.
Another great dinner...The recent changes has made the restaurant appear bigger. The portions were perfectly sized and cooked.
This is a much, much more attractive restaurant since the summer renovation & the food was improved as well. Helpful and friendly staff did well with our large group that changed size more than once. Only 2 problems, neither really the restaurant's fault: 2 babies crying, one for quite a while, at the next table; and confusion over splitting the bill 3 ways with credit cards (not sure where the error lies in this instance). It was a jolly night.
Loved the new decor and food is wonderful...a great evening with friends.
River City Grille is a neighborhood gem. With a eclectic menu and creative specials. A little tight as far as seating is concerned. On a busy night parking can be a challenge, you may need to walk a block or two. Good for the digestion.
Went with another couple for restaurant week. Service was impeccable and food wonderfully prepared. If only there was something management could/would do about the very noisy table of 8a few tables away who were so, um, festive that their conversation was offensively loud the entire time, except when their food came.
There was a big party the night we ate there so we opted to sit in the bar room where there were a few tables for dinner. Food was good. We have been here before and enjoyed it. They were quite accommodating for a gluten allergy. Bartender was our waiter and made a few mistakes but nothing too crazy. We enjoyed it! The people we ate with didn't enjoy the duck dumplings. The scallops are delicious.
We had gone to this restaurant about a year ago and liked and and thought the decor a bit "strange" but funky. I didn't dislike it, but thought that the quality of the food deserved a bit classier ambiance. And they have done it and it looks great. The food is just as good and the menu is a lot better, too. It was SO big last year; I felt like I was in a diner. Actually, it did seem much like a diner last time, but with really good food. Now this place is just perfect! New menu, same great food choices, beautiful decor, friendly staff. I just wish it were closer to my house!
Dinner was excellent. Everyone choose from the evening's specials. Butternut squash soup was outstanding, as were the all of our entrees. Attention was paid to my husband's request for gluten free. Wait staff was prepared with information to help in the selection. Looking forward to our next visit.

WTF people?

I got to floor 45 with south.
I've been to all of them, and I've always gotten absolutely destroyed.
I like the North one best, because I think I made it to like floor 20 one time when I was very lucky.

Helpful to our local community and to the serebii community :3
I just lost on East :/
You have served me well.
I tried one of them, probably north, maybe south, for a final mission to get master rank on Time...to save the Pichu brothers XD, I went to like floor 66 and then left because I didn't want to go through the rest 0_0, I did rescue them though XD
I'm actually getting ready on darkness to take on a Zero Island mission so I'm getting there lol

Hey! If you've got some time on your hands, how about checking out my new fanfic-- Kingdom Hearts: Memories' Reflection. Last updated 8/17/13
I'm too chicken to go try out the Zero Isle dungeons. Anything that has up to 99 floors, makes you lose everything in your bag and/or drops you down to level one scares me away. Probably because I had bad luck with the Red version.

I'm currently going through West to get the Amber tear. I took 10'000 poke along and I'm glad I did it, because the very first floor had a Kecleon shop with a Pass scarf among other goodies So far so good, have a bunch of apples and a reviver seed. Wish me luck!

I did North and died on floor 98 from empty belly. I was soooooooooooooooooooooo angry. Ugh, it was so annoying. As for my team, I am always Piplup and/or Pikachu.I think I did South and my belly was low ad a monster house killed me, can't rmeember what floor though but it was very annoying.
Well, if monster houses are your problem, just use a pokemon that learn moves hitting every pokemon in the room to make things easier.
And I got through Zero Isle West without any problems. Warp seeds are awesome I think I'll make a guide for Pass scarf or so, like, which effects and moves can be passed and which not. I was really surprised that Delibird's Present always nearly OHKO'd me Also had no clue that status and stat changes are also passed on.

Oh God.... I've always hated Zero Isle, and I've always just avoided them. I've gotten to the highest rank on all of my games without doing missions there, so I don't care much. I've tried a few times, but I basically decided I don't need to complete them, hahah.
The edit button is always your friend.
Hipsters, I tell ya.
If I don't know who you are, don't be offended, but I can't keep up with all of these username changes.
I'd say that considering the difficulty and the rewards for completing them, Zero Isle North is the only one worth the trouble. At the end of it, you get the Golden Mask, which helps with recruiting, the Wonder Chest, which slightly boosts the Exp. gained for the Pokemon holding it, and a couple of Wonder Gummi's. South is the only other one worth mentioning, since it has certain rare items, but a good amount of them are hidden in locked chambers, which complicates things.

For me, it's either North or South. North is incredibly fun, especially if you worked for days to get to Lv. 100! South is my second favorite, due to the extreme challenge. I actually managed to get to the 30th floor, with a Jynx. All I remember is a cave and Bayleefs.
Generic Signiture. Woopee..
I'm on floor 50 of Zero Island South and already have only 5 rescue chances left, I'm so bad, haha. I also cleared ZI West three times because I keep on losing Amber Tear and I prefer to not get it back via Wondermail, because it's not that hard to get it to begin with, just time consuming. I've yet to conquer ZI North, I don't know why but I had difficulties the first time East is probably the easiest dungeon, I simply take about five sets of Gravelerrock 99 and get EXP really fast ^^

I realized... this has been necrobumped a few times already. Oiiii. x:
Anyway, the only Zero Isle I've done is South. Surprisingly, I was able to reach as far as the 91st floor as Mew. Transform + learning any TMs you find useful across the way = the best way to go. xD But otherwise, I have not really cleared any of the Zero Isles in general. I should do that sometime.

South is the hardest one and I managed to beat it the time I started it and posted here. Used Smoochum and got a Pass Scarf in one of the last floors, so lucky

I've done South as Swampert, but it took me 6 hours of mostly grinding. I was level 49 at the end. -.-
The hardest thing in my opinion isn't the level drop, but the loss of Blizzard and all of my IQ skills. If I had Stair Sensor, I'd have been able to complete it in much less time.
The reward was disappointing. I got a Life Seed from the chest, but I had picked up 3 of those from the dungeon itself, along with 4 Joy Seeds, 2 Zincs, 2 Calciums, a Protien, a Ginseng, and a Mobile Scarf I bought... Well, stole from a Kecleon. In other words, the rare items in the dungeon itself are normally a better reward than the contents of the chest at the end.

I beat all of them. Drifblim and smoochum are great choices. I used drifblim for west, smoochum for south.

Ward Seven Councilwoman Margaret Barrett-Simon said there's no silver bullet to address the capital city's road problems.
Jackson has 1,600 miles of roadway, of which nearly 107 miles are in need of immediate repairs.
In all, it would cost about $50 million to bring the road system up to par, but the city only dedicated $1.5 million for road overlays in the 2011-12 fiscal year budget.

Auburn apartments for rent are located approximately 28 miles south of Seattle and have been recognized as part of a booming farm industry as well as an expanding business community. Originally inhabited by the Skopamish, Smalhkamish and Stkamish Native American tribes, Auburn remained a First Nation enclave late into the 1800s. The leading industry in Auburn was farming and continued to be so until the Interban rail line was built, which brought new business prospects to the town. Today, Auburn is home to an active community dedicated to preserving the city's cultural history through the arts.
Residents living in Auburn apartments for rent have access to the town's historic and cultural roots thanks to the White River Valley Museum, which offers permanent and traveling exhibits and educational tours. Auburn is also home to the Auburn City Hall Gallery, that has rotating shows of two-dimensional works from local artists. Residents are encouraged to participate in the annual Auburn ArtWalk, an event that offers artists, businesses and restaurants to get community members and local artists the opportunity to communicate, explore and engage in the arts. Many residents enjoy a night out at the Auburn Avenue Theater. The entertainment venue offers live performances including plays, poetry readings, comedy shows and concerts.
Auburn provides its residents an extensive parks and recreation system in an effort to promote a healthy, active lifestyle. Community members enjoy the scenic views as they walk, bike, run and play at the 28 parks, which offer more than 23 miles of trails and 247 acres of open space to run and play on.
The Metro Transit and Sound Transit work together to provide residents living in Auburn apartments the option to commute using public transportation systems. Metro Transit offers local bus services within Auburn and regional connections to city railways serviced by Sound Transit.
Residents looking into Auburn apartments for rent have access to public housing services through the King County Housing Authority. Subsidized housing, rental assistance, job training, counseling and self-sufficiency programs are also provided to residents and community members in need.
If you are looking to relocate to Auburn, Wash., you should know that the cost of living for the city is estimated to be 8.2 percent higher than the Washington state average and 9.5 percent higher than the national average. Residents pay an average of $3.71 for a gallon of gas, $5.67 for a cup of coffee and $8.00 for pizza, according to AreaVibes.
Some students residing in apartments in Auburn attend the Green River Community college before heading off to a four year college or university. Post secondary institutions located within 20 miles of Auburn include the University of Washington, Puget Sound University, Seattle University, Seattle Pacific University and Pacific Lutheran University
Prospective residents of apartments for rent in Auburn have access to leading industries such as manufacturing, government and healthcare. The top three employers in King County are The Boeing Co., Microsoft and the University of Washington. Neighboring Pierce County's top employers include Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Local Public School districts and the Multicare Health System.

I've seen some really stupid shit today but this takes it right here. Retard post of the day award for you. congrats
Quote:"... you do solemnly swear in the presence of Almighty God... that you will avenge the blood of Joseph Smith upon this nation, and so teach your children; that you will, from this day henceforth and forever, begin and carry out hostilities against this nation, and keep the same a profound secret now and forever. So help you God." - Apostle William Smith, Arguments Before the Committee On Privileges and Elections of the United States Senate In the Matter of the Protests Against the Right of Hon. Reed Smoot, A Senator from the State of Utah, to Hold His Seat, 1905, p. 231
Quote:"We will go to a land where there are at last no old settlers to quarrel with us…. We will leave this wicked nation, to themselves, for they have rejected the gospel, and I hope and pray that the wicked will kill one another & save us the trouble of doing it." - Prophet Brigham Young, quoted in "Journal of Heber C. Kimball," under January 2, 1846; see Abanes, One Nation Under Gods, p. 216
Quote:- Prophet John Taylor, Salt Lake Tribune, January 6, 1880, quoted in Samuel W. Taylor, Rocky Mountain Empire, 1978, p. 29 [/b]"Brigham raised his hand and said, 'I swear by the eternal Heavens that I have unsheathed my sword, and I will never return it until the blood of the Prophet Joseph and Hyrum, and those who were slain in Missouri, is avenged. This whole nation is guilty of shedding their blood, by assenting to the deed, and holding its peace.' ... Furthermore, every one who had passed through their endowments, in the Temple, were placed under the most sacred obligations to avenge the blood of the Prophet, whenever an opportunity offered, and to teach their children to do the same, thus making the entire Mormon people sworn and avowed enemies of the American nation." - Elder John D. Lee, Mormonism Unveiled, 1877, p. 160, online at http://www.helpingmormons.org/Rare_Books.htm
Quote:Published in John Whitmer Historical Association Journal 32, no. 2 (Fall/Winter 2012):52-58.1 Joseph Smith was a very audacious and ambitious individual. In 1844, in central Illinois at Nauvoo, he established a theocratic/political kingdom on the Mississippi. He envisioned himself as a king presiding over an empire that eventually would include not only America but the entire world. He organized a council of fifty men to help him realize his goal. Under his direction, this secretive body appears to have been given the responsibility of setting up satellite cells for this theocratic kingdom throughout the United States and the world. In this article I will explore the evidence for this idea. In many of the churches based on the movement started by Joseph Smith, Jr., the Book of Mormon is upheld as canonized scripture. One of the salient themes in 3 Nephi, within the Book of Mormon, is that the Native Americans under the direction of God will destroy the gentiles (anyone not Native American) in America unless they "repent," meaning they embrace the Mormon gospel. Here are several examples from 3 Nephi, of Joseph Smith prophesying on this theme in 1830: I say unto you, that if the Gentiles do not repent.... Then shall ye, who are a remnant of the house of Jacob [Indians], go forth among them; and ye shall be in the midst of them who shall be many; and ye shall be among them as a lion among the beasts of the forest, and as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he goeth through both treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver. Thy hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.... And it shall come to pass, saith the Father, that the sword of my justice shall hang over them at that day; and except they repent it shall fall upon them. (LDS, 3 Ne. 20: 15-17, 20; RLDS, 3 Ne. 9:51-53, 56) Smith continues: And my people (Mormons) who are a remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles, yea, in the midst of them as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through both treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.... I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots; And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strongholds.... And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee; so will I destroy thy cities.... And I will execute vengeance and fury upon them, even as upon the heathen, such as they have not heard. (LDS, 3 Ne. 21:12, 14-15, 18, 21; also see LDS, 3 Ne. 16:10-16; LDS, Mormon 5:24. RLDS, 3 Ne. 9:99, 101, 104, 106; also see RLDS, 3 Ne. 7:34-42; RLDS, Mormon 2: 54). Smith further prophesies that if the gentiles do repent, they can assist the Native Americans in building the New Jerusalem: But if they will repent [embrace the Mormon gospel] ... I will establish my church among them, and they shall come in unto the covenant and be numbered among this the remnant of Jacob, unto whom I have given this land [America] for their inheritance; And they shall assist my people ... [to] build a city, which shall be called the New Jerusalem. And ... assist my people that they may be gathered in, who are scattered upon all the face of the land, in unto the New Jerusalem. And then shall the power of heaven come down among them; and I also will be in the midst. (LDS, 3 Ne. 21:22-25; RLDS, 3 Ne. 10:1-4, emphasis added) http://mormonthink.com/grant8.htm
On October 14th, 1838, in Missouri, Smith declared his identification with Muhammad. "If the people will let us alone," cried the prophet, "we will preach the gospel in peace. But if they come on us to molest us, we will establish our religion by the sword. We will trample down our enemies and make it one gore of blood from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean. I will be to this generation a second Mohammed, whose motto in treating for peace was 'the Alcoran [al-Koran] or the sword." So shall it eventually be with us–'Joseph Smith or the Sword'". (Brodie, No Man Knows My History, ch. xvi, p. 231.)

Talking to Rabbi Yitzy Erps is quite an adventure. Who else but this incomparable storyteller will punctuate his animated conversation with the sound of a beating heart, a stormy night, a five-year-old asking for his afikoman present or Eisav demanding lentil soup from his brother Yaakov?
Blessed with innate talent in art and the unusual ability to mimic voices and sounds, Rabbi Erps used these gifts throughout his more than 30 years in Jewish education. Some years ago, he became a "rebbe" not only to his own students, but to thousands more, through his popular children's books, Tell Me a Tale, Volumes 1 & 2. Now, in his newest book, Tales to Live By, he brings his trademarks – the funny stories, the unforgettable characters, the lively illustrations – to the ultimate Jewish teaching tool, Pirkei Avot
Each of the stories in Tales to Live By takes a message from Pirkei Avot and illustrates it in contemporary terms that children can relate to. When writing his stories, Rabbi Erps says, he always begins by asking himself a question: "What lesson can I bring out?" He then adds his secret ingredient: humor. With the fertile imagination of the born artist, he then envisions his characters. Perhaps it will be Duvi, the klutzy delivery man, whose falling boxes will teach a lesson in why even small mitzvahs are important, or maybe the noble Prince Albert, who hobnobs with the peasants and brings Rebbe Yehuda HaNasi's wisdom to life. Finally, with the lesson, the jokes, and the characters all set, he's ready to fill in the details of the story, with every word carefully chosen to entertain – and to teach.
As an artist who illustrates his own books, Rabbi Erps is able to bring his vision to vivid life. His pictures – whether the cartoon characters of Tell Me a Tale, or the more realistic personalities of Tales to Live By — seem to jump off the printed page and into a child's life.
Rabbi Erps is lively, fun, entertaining – and very, very wise. And so are his Tales to Live By.

When I saw the big name memory foam beds appear years ago, I thought to myself, "Why so expensive? It's FOAM!". I did realize that it was a high-tech foam, but foam nonetheless. So when our 17 year old Stearns and Foster spring behemoth started sagging recently, my wife and I were pleased to find many manufacturers of memory foam beds at realistic prices. We chose this one based on reviews, price and warranty. Now here's my review in two words: BUY IT! It came rolled up, totally vacuum sealed and started expanding slowly as soon as we unwrapped it. It had a "new material" odor for a few hours, but 7 hours later it was fully expanded and once we put bedding on it, we could hardly notice smell. We put it on our Stears and Foster box spring and slept on it that night. 3 days later smell was gone. We've slept great from day 1, but my wife wanted the pillow top fluffitness that we had on old bed, so we put a thick pillow top pad (Overstock Item#: 11446847) on this and, I gotta say, with or without the pillow pad, this bed is the most comfortable bed I've ever slept on! It's the perfect balance between firm and soft, and if you want it softer, just do the pad like we did. I'm 48, 6'2" 250lbs and paint houses for a living. If I get a sore back or shoulder, I need it healed in the morning. I've NEVER had an achy ANYTHING in the morning since we've had this bed! This mattress has a 20 year warranty. Within the first 10 years, if the mattress sustains a 3/4" or deeper impression, they will repair or replace at no charge. Most other mfgrs require 1-1/2"! If problems occur between 10-20 years, there's a pro-rated charge. So take it from a couple coming off a high end spring mattress to this bed and have zero regrets, BUY IT!
We received this bed about 3 weeks ago and absolutely love sleeping on it. Memory foam mattresses come compressed and need a few hours to take shape after removing the packaging. Others have commented on the odor that comes off the mattresses and it does have one but, disappears quickly. I slept on it the same night and had no issue with the smell. I have been an active sleeper most of my life and I have notice that I sleep way more restfully on this mattress I don't move around nearly as much. Also, because the motion transference is greatly reduces my boyfriend sleeps better as well. This mattress is pretty firm so if you like a softer mattress it might not be the one for you. Although the way the memory foam molds to your body it does offset the firmness a little. All in all I definitely recommend this mattress and would by it again.
This mattress is VERY comfortable! I've slept much more soundly since I started sleeping on this mattress. I was worried about the weird smell that other reviews mentioned, but it really doesn't smell very much at all. For the first couple of days, I could smell it, but it wasn't a bad smell...it just smelled new. I would definitely recommend this mattress.
I've only been sleeping on this mattress a little over two weeks as I let it air out for 4 days. It filled out to its full 10" within hours of getting it out of the packaging. I did notice an odor, which I was prepared for, and just left it in the guest bedroom for four days ( I place some coffee grounds on a plate in the room to help absorb the smell) The reason for 4 stars is that I feel that I've been a bit warmer while sleeping and the smell took longer to dissipate.
I was a bit hesitant to order a mattress on-line, but I am so glad I did. Delivery in 3 days, and then, my best nights sleep I can recall for a long, long time. I have had 2 major back surgeries. I knew my old mattress had seen better days and asked a lot of people about the memory foam type. Everyone I talked to that has one love it. And now I see why. This is, without a doubt, the most comfortable mattress I have ever slept on. I usually wake up and immediately get out of bed, but this morning I just laid there enjoying every moment. No smell, no excessive heat issues. Perfection. Seriously. You won't be dissapointed.
Have had this mattress for about 6 months. No sagging! Still comfortable. My friend stayed with us and called it the "magical" bed. We are happy. For the price, it can't be beat. It is in the medium firm side.
This mattress was a shocker to my roommate when he noticed that it came shipping in a box within a box that contained a vacuum-sealed package with a whole mattress inside. After reading many reviews, I realized I would have to wait to let the mattress fully "come to life". I, however, was quite impatient. I am a school teacher, and I could not deal with one more night on an air mattress before teaching adolescents all day! I allowed the mattress to regain its mass while at dinner, and much to my surprise, it was mostly finished by the time I returned. This was one of the best night's sleep I have had in quite a long time. I am anxious to see how the mattress stands up to the test of time. I am confident that I will not be displeased with this purchase at all. I was also very shocked by the ridiculously affordable 10-year warranty I was able to purchase along with the mattress. When reading through what the warranty covered, I was amazed that pretty much anything accidental is also covered (I.e. - pet urine).
this is so great , have not had anything bad to say about it .
Being used in a guest bedroom . we bought Queen size . Love it!!
Very comfortable mattress, but make sure you have a quality boxspring or full slats underneath to support the mattress or it is unusable. The material has no self-support. Overall very satisfied!

Study Abroad Programs and National Study Programs
NOTE: A new program has just been approved beginning in 2014-15 - Daystar University in Kenya
The 2012 undergraduate commencement speaker – Angela Bymaster, George Fox Alumna '00 (bio), shared an important address exemplifying GFU's "mission, vision, and values" principles.
In relation to the Center for Study Abroad, Bymaster's talk showcases how study beyond the community of GFU can enhance learning gained while at GFU.
Through time spent off-campus with the community of Mission Year, the trajectory of Bymaster's life moved further toward exemplifying such GFU principles as, Engaging Globally and Connecting Culturally, being an Innovator and Risk Taker in Pursuit of God's Kingdom, Promoting Peace, Justice, and Care of the Earth, and Living like Christ as [an] Agent of Love and Reconciliation.
Take just a bit to watch the video – we at the CGS found her message inspiring and hope you will too!
