Meet Spring and Leigh
About a month or so ago, Leigh and Spring started individually posting these amazing photos on our Facebook page, one after another (and another, and another). Believe us, we absolutely loved every single one, sharing a bunch of them to our Timeline. But after the fourth or fifth one, we decided it was time for them to properly introduce themselves and tell us a bit about their adventures. Here's Spring:
"Myself and Leigh moved from a relatively sedentary city life in Dublin, Ireland around mid 2010. Leigh being Irish, and myself being Canadian but having been living in Ireland for the previous 6 years. Back then the word 'gaiter' had never passed our lips before, nor had the word 'crampon' or many other terms for equipment and terrain that one encounters in the mountains.
We moved directly to Squamish and found the wild at our doorstep and embraced it. We try to push ourselves a little harder with each trip and, thanks to a great community of outdoor enthusiasts in South West BC, have been able to get out nearly every free day possible with like minded people and explore and learn to travel safely in the mountains here.
Two trips that stand out as highlights in the last year took place in Joffre Lakes Provincial Park. In my humble opinion it is the best proving ground for any budding mountaineer or climber to hone their skills and abilities. Access to the goods is pretty quick, a novelty in SW BC where an approach from sea level is not uncommon, and the routes are aesthetic and, more importantly, fun.
On Easter long weekend we planned to head in and tackle two routes, The Aussie Couloir on Joffre Peak and the NE Spur on Mount Matier. We didn't bother with tents and instead tested out a new shelter option which is a snow pit. It's as the name indicates, a pit dug in the snow with a tarp stretched over it and propped up in the center with a hiking pole.
We started early and successfully summited both of the routes we had our eyes on. It turned out to be so good that I knew I'd be back in this area before the season was over.
A few months later I got word of a trip planned to visit the lesser documented Mount Howard. This would prove to be more of an exploratory trip. Again we slept in a snow pit, the weather was phenomenal and over the weekend we managed to reach the summit of not only Mount Howard but also Mount Matier again, but this time via its West Ridge, descend it's NW Face and summit Mount Hartzell after an unsuccessful attempt on Mount Spetch via its South face.
This park is simply amazing to explore and we plan to come back and try at least a few of its other, more difficult routes each year to test our abilities. Once we feel good enough at home here we plan to try and test ourselves further in the Himalayas before the decade is out.
On both of these trips, myself and Leigh wore Alpha LT jackets and Leigh wore the Alpha LT 1/2 Bib. Our harnesses are also by Arc'teryx, mine is the X-350A and Leigh's is the R-320A. We both love all this gear for one main reason, we never have to think about it. It just works. We put it on and then we can concentrate on enjoying our time in the mountains. Our jackets are pretty much with us on every trip, as we rely on them for our waterproof, windproof, or emergency night out system."
A big THANK YOU to Spring and Leigh for all their "let's go outside this instant" inspiring photos. We've put a handful of them in an album on our Facebook page. You can follow their upcoming adventures here, and check out their outstanding dance moves here :-)

Jay DeWire, piano Hther Haughn, violin Dana Flesner, cello
Piano Trio in C Minor, Op. 1 No.3 - Ludwig van Beethoven
Piano Trio in G Major, L.3 - Claude Debussy
Trio in G Minor, Op. 9 - Frédéric Chopin
Since their first performance on the west shore of the Chesapeake Bay, the West Shore Piano Trio has brought passion, color, and penetrating insight to the works they perform, not only through their playing but also through their commentary and interaction with audiences. With performances across the mid-Atlantic, the trio has performed at the Chautauqua Institution (Chautauqua, NY), the Smithsonian American Art Museum (Washington, D.C.), An Die Musik (Baltimore, MD), the Duke Ellington School of the Arts (Washington, D.C.), Goucher College (Baltimore, MD), St. Mary's College of Maryland (St. Mary's, Maryland), Harmony Hall (Fort Washington, MD) and the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts (Hagerstown, MD).
The WSPT believes that education and entertainment enhance each other and that the better informed an audience is about a work the more deeply they will appreciate its performance. To this end, the members of the trio accompany each concert with brief verbal commentary, providing biographical details about the composer, framing the work in context of its time, and highlighting thematic and compositional elements of the piece, as well as connections shared between each work on the program. When speaking about the music, they use accessible, jargon-free language that enables the music to be understood by non-musicians and musicians alike.
Recent and upcoming projects include: a discussion of the development of the piano trio from its origins with Mozart's piano trios, to the height of its craft in Brahms' revision of the Piano Trio in B Major, to a more modern adaptation of the genre in Piazzolla's Four Seasons; a look at the very early works of three great composers: Beethoven, Chopin, and Debussy, examining how each composer began with the musical style of their predecessors and eventually transformed that style with their our unique voices; and an exploration of the late periods of Beethoven, Brahms, and Faure and how these three composers chiseled and shaped their individual voices to extreme lengths in their late work.
The West Shore Trio's commitment to education further extends to include master classes, question-and-answer sessions, and collaborative projects. They maintain an active and developing relationship with Duke Ellington School for the Arts that includes outreach presentations, question-and-answer sessions, and concerts. Additionally the trio has established a connection with Goucher College, where they have given multiple concerts and also a lecture performance on Shostakovich's piano trio, in which they discussed the different levels of meaning in the piece and the effects that politics and personal connections had on its musical language. Other recent projects include a concert program of trios by living composers that highlighted different compositional approaches to the piano trio and a collaboration with DancEthos dance company that brought live music to the stage in a tapestry of sound, movement, and visual artistry.
Based in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area, the members of the trio were educated at the Eastman School of Music, New England Conservatory, San Francisco Conservatory, Rice University Shepherd School of Music, the University of Illinois, and the University of Maryland. They have studied with or been coached by such esteemed musicians as violinists Lynn Blakeslee, Isaac Stern, Kathleen Winkler, Roland and Almita Vamos, Zvi Zeitlin, pianists Larissa Dedova, Brian Ganz,, cellists Bonnie Hampton, Brandon Vamos and members of the Aborada, Alexander, American, Cleveland, Concord, Juilliard, Kocian, Kronos, Left Bank, Miami, Miró, Pacifica, Penderecki, St. Lawrence, Tákacs, Tokyo, and Ying Quartets.

Hi, stupid question, but how/where do I register for the asset store? I can't seem to find a way... Thanks.
You can register using the asset store window in the Unity editor (menu: Window > Asset Store).
I'm wired to the world... that's how I... know... everything...
I just get an empty window when I choose the Window > Asset Store menu... :_(
Have you tried reverting to default window settings? (Menu: Window > Layouts > Revert Factory Settings)
I'm wired to the world... that's how I... know... everything...
Just did. No effect. Still a blank window. (I'm on OSX, by the way)
Please can you file a bug report for this (menu: Help > Report A Bug).
I'm wired to the world... that's how I... know... everything...
I just noticed that I have version 3.1.0f3. And the Update Check tells me that the most recent version is 3.2.0f4. Could that be the problem?
Upgrading to Unity 3.2 might solve it - please post again to let us know if it does.
I'm wired to the world... that's how I... know... everything...
Yes. Upgrading to Unity 3.2 did solve the problem.
@Rahuxx - I'm pretty sure the asset store was developed so that users wouldn't try to use models they have purchased on one machine on another. Mostly to do with copyrights. Saying that, you can just copy over the model from your hard-drive onto a USB device and transfer it that way.
- s0dy"I was thinking about makeing the sky violat, looks more fantasy."
i clicked on my account name / email address in the bottom left corner of the asset store window and came to a profile page that had a
"resend confirmation mail" button
which delivered what it promised nobody else with the issue had success with that button ?!
I too have a blank asset store window. I uninstalled and re-installed the latest version (version 3.3.0f4). I even reactivated my free license.
There is an error on the console window when I open the asset store in a brand new project:
SyntaxError: Parse error
ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Ajax
Can some one help? I am using Windows XP

Thanks Support.

Tried to register on asset store, it keeps saying fill in required missing fields no matter if they are all filled in or not. I have the latest version installed....?
Running Windows 7 Upto Date except IE9....
I have the same issue as tonycrew where it says that I am missing fields even if I filled them all out.
Running Safari
nevermind, I got it to work for me
Did it just start working for you folks? Because I'm getting the error where it demands required fields that I've already filled in, and I'm unable to get past it. A hint would be appreciated.
Measure twice, cut once, curse three or four times.
@Bampf: I've activated your account manually, so you should be OK now. The error you encountered has been logged.

I read ab article about Political Correctness here.
I was pretty shocked when I read this part. Has Western countries really gone this far in political correctness? That's really sad.
I'm glad we still have 'Selamat Hari Raya', 'Merry Christmas', Go Xi Fai Cai' in our greeting instead of everything becoming 'Happy Holiday'.Religion-related
Merry Christmas is often replaced with Happy Holidays or Season's Greetings. "Christmas" itself is sometimes replaced on company calendars with the generic "Winter Holiday" or "December Holiday" or "Winter Break" or other secular terminology. Characters on television commericals may refer to "Holiday presents" rather than Christmas ones. George W. Bush was criticised by many conservative Christians at Christmas 2005 for sending Christmas cards that wished a happy "holiday season" rather than a Merry Christmas (Washington Post, 27 Dec. 2005).
Gregorian calendar-related terminology is being altered from Anno Domini (Latin: In the year of [the] Lord) and Before Christ to the Christian-neutral Common Era terminology (CE/BCE).
People with religious beliefs are often (in the USA) referred to euphemistically as "people of faith", by analogy to "people of color".
In 1998, Birmingham City Council decided to brand a series of entertainments over the Christmas and New Year period Winterval, which opponents claimed to be an attempt to remove the name 'Christmas' (the council denied this interpretation).
In a 2003 PETsMART television ad, a mid-aged couple is shown with their dog sitting under a Christmas tree, with several Christmas presents under it. The woman then notes, "This is our dog's first holiday." Although the couple would most likely be celebrating Christmas, the word is omitted.
In 2004, Federated Department Stores (which includes Macy's) banned their employees from saying "Merry Christmas" to customers.A small organization, the Committee to Save Merry Christmas, boycotted Federated Department Stores for their ban on mentioning the holiday.
While Macy's names their November parade the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, the Christmas season parade (formerly Macy's Christmas Parade to 1991) has been genericized to the Macy's Holiday Parade.
The debate of political correctness during the Christmas season has become so intense that websites are surfacing to oppose holiday celebrations which do not mention or focus on Christmas. These organizations include, but are not limited to, The Grinch List, V-DARE.com's War Against Christmas (since 2000), and The Committee to Save Merry Christmas.
In 2002, Toronto city workers referred to the city's Christmas tree as a "holiday tree" resulting in a controversy that political correctness had been taken too far. Said Barry Levy, an Orthodox Jewish Rabbi and the head of religious studies at Montreal's McGill University, "That object is identified as a Christmas tree - it's not a Hannukah bush, it's not a winter tree, it's not a festival tree - it's a Christmas tree - we all know it for what it is. Quite frankly I'm offended on behalf of Christians for whom it's a symbol of some importance - that they should have a religious symbol converted into a secular one just in order to accommodate it into public display."
On 27 November 2005, Boston's city Christmas Tree was renamed the 'holiday tree' in the name of political correctness. This caused much controversy, including comments from the annual Nova Scotian tree donor, who said "if they're going to call it a 'holiday tree', they might as well put it up at Easter". The tree was re-instated as "Christmas Tree" on 28 November.
Since 1998, the Capitol's Christmas Tree was called the Capitol 'holiday Tree', and was renamed on 30 November 2005 to the Capitol Christmas Tree. Officials apologized that the website could not be updated to include Christmas for the 2005 season, but would be in 2006.
The Committee to Save Merry Christmas, active once again in 2005, opted to boycott Sears & Roebuck, Inc. due to their non-use of Christmas terminology. Also, they succeeded in convincing Federated Department Stores (Macy*s) to re-instate "Merry Christmas", and other Christmas terminology in their advertising, which was acknowledged by a Federated associate. Recently, the Sears Corporation (including K-Mart) removed "holiday" references and replaced them with "Christmas" on 2 December 2005.
Target, Inc.'s decision to ban the Salvation Army once again in for the 2005 Christmas season, as well as ban the use of the word Christmas in both their store locations and advertising, resulted in an attempted boycott of the corporation through the Thanksgiving holiday weekend (24 November - 27 November 2005) by the American Family Association, and the Committee to Save Merry Christmas. Target sales were down 7% over the weekend.
Lambeth Council in London banned "Christmas lights" in December 2005 in favour of "winter lights" and, bizarrely, "Celebrity Lights". This prompted outrage by many citizens, who felt that in a Christian country (the UK has an established church), a Christian festival was being marginalised.
Btw, 'actress' sounds so much better than 'female actor'.

Vinewood Wedding Lounge Area
We created a lounge area for a wedding at the beautiful Vinewood Estates in Newnan, Georgia. The bride's style was more modern and neutral than most of our vintage furniture. But vintage treasures that are classic and beautiful can blend in with any style. The lounge area was outside the stable, where the reception was held, around the dance floor.
Here are some pictures of our wedding lounge area.
We fell so in love with Vinewood Estates that our daughter is going to have her wedding there on May 3, 2013!

Spurs' streak ends in 119-109 loss to Pistons
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) -- Greg Monroe had 26 points and 16 rebounds, and the Detroit Pistons snapped San Antonio's 11-game winning streak with a 119-109 victory over the short-handed Spurs on Friday night.
San Antonio played without Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili, and the Pistons led by as many as 21 points in the second quarter. It was 65-52 at halftime, and although the Spurs cut the deficit to seven in the fourth, they fell short against a Detroit team that equaled its highest score of the season.
Tony Parker scored 31 points for San Antonio and Kawhi Leonard added 16. Brandon Knight had 24 for the Pistons, and Charlie Villanueva scored 21.

This is BS!!! There is no way that a college student writes so poorly... I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
Are you sure this notebook didnt belong to Beth?
True reddit thread here...
...why are they going to college to learn whats on the street?
This doesn't surprise me. The liberal professors do lessons like this all the time. They have the students make a list and then they try to prove how ridiculous those thoughts were and how brain washed people are. I bet the notes are for Sociology 101. That is the initial college brain washing course.
About the handwriting... If the student is a lefty his or her hand writing might be that bad because when you learn how to write in elementary school they only teach righties who push the pencil across the page and leave lefties who pull the pencil to figure it out on their own.
Sorry lefties push the pencil, righties pull the pencil... my bad
My first day in Sociology 101 (Reagan era) the professor announced that IRAs were a rip off and a plan by Republicans to overtax poor people.
When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." ~Frederic Bastiat
Sixth one down about sums it up, don't ya think?
I didn't realize that "Africa is a country" is a common stereotype.
When I was in college, one dude turned in a term paper with the premise that blacks were inferior to other races. It surprisingly didn't get him into any trouble, although it didn't go over too well with the black residents of the dorm who heard about it.
illl be needing that back
live action
The next question the professor asks: Who here in this class is a racist- they expect all the white students to raise their hands because in order to be a racist you must have the power.
africa isn't a country.
nothing in the above is inherently wrong. i just found the overall tone somewhat condescending. As if these 'stereotypes' appear entirely in a racist vacuum and don't come from very real concerns and issues related to the state of post-colonial black-africa and black-african culture in general.
and my god the handwriting! it's not that it's messy, which is expected when jotting down notes. it's just so damn childlike/remedial.

I think it depends how you use it, and who you use it with. As a word, it's similar to the "N" word - context makes a big difference.
The problem here is, you can only really take offence at something, you can't give it. Downside is, so many people actually make the effort to be offensive, so words just have to be written off.
My usual rule of thumb is, "If I ain't one, I don't use it". This applies nicely for the F word, the N word, the C word, and the M word (moist). - however, it cleverly leaves me open to use F'er, dick, and Old Bastard. I do look sideways at people that use MF'er, until I realise they may not use my rule.
I find it interesting that you find yourself be a d word, or one of the f words, but not the other f word or the c word. These words can very often mean the same thing and be used interchangeably. Why use some but not the others?
looks fun as fuck
Thursday tomorrow already. Wow time does go by
gtaiv is one of the worst games i've played all generation

Oh wait.
I don't think they "screwed" up anything, but I don't think they're giving consumers outside the hype any real compelling reason to buy in... It gives Microsoft a little more time to improve their perception in the early going... especially if the xone launch has a couple notable stand outs... Ultimately a launch doesnt define a generation, but it does set an early tone. I think the PS4 will be fine, but so will MS.

I shouldn't have to do that. It should come level out of the box, I guess that will be the big innovation for the remodel.
Almost every homosexual man I know refers to themselves as either the short or long form of the word, and do so to make light of it. I think it's only PC straight people who find it offensive.
I'll reiterate my point regarding "words" as offensive... it isn't the word that should matter, but the intent behind it.

Its demand, you can no longer make a decent living without going to college.
Historically you look at the percentage of americans with college degree, our workforce is more educated than ever, but have less disposable income.
This right here is BS. One can make a decent living without a college degree and be quite successful with out one. Learn a trade. A really good mechanic/diagnostician (many computers on cars now) can make upwards of 6 figures. Welders (boilermakers) can make 6 figures without working 5/40 or more a week for 50 weeks a year. Sure, they might work 12 hours a day 7 days a week until the job is over, but they get months off during the slow periods to enjoy their big boy toys as well as have a paid for house. That college degree doesn't mean you will be making 6 figures.
There is a demand for skilled workers that are willing to do the work no matter what field you are in with or without a college degree. The simple fact is, by the time a person graduates high school, they should have an idea of what kind of student they would be and I can say right now, many of them that are in HS now, should not be going on to college.

The Planetary Ball Mill PM 100 CM pulverizes and mixes soft, medium-hard to extremely hard, brittle and fibrous materials. It is used wherever the highest degree of fineness is required. Dry and wet grinding can be carried out.
The PM 100 CM operates in the centrifugal mode, i.e. the speed ratio is 1:-1 (PM 100: 1:-2). This results in a different ball movement which leads to a more gentle grinding of the sample with less abrasion.
The PM 100 CM is a bench-top model with 1 grinding station for grinding jars with a nominal volume of 12 to 500 ml.

The Colin Murphy Show
PORTLAND, ME – Left wing Colin Murphy scored a 1-2-3 natural hat trick to jump start his Portland Pirates to a 5-2 win over the Manchester Monarchs in front of 6,505 fans at the Cumberland County Civic Center on Saturday night.
Manchester (34-31-0-8, 76 points) dropped to fourth place in the Atlantic Division. Portland (34-29-3-6, 77 points) moved into third place in the Atlantic Division.
"We had a real strong first period but a giveaway and a momentary mental lapse put us down 2-0 in the second," said Monarchs Head Coach Mark Morris. "We continued to struggle from that point forward. About midpoint in the third, we applied a lot of pressure. The last 10 minutes of the game, we had them back on their heels. We were playing wide open hockey that gave them an odd man rush that put the game out of reach."
The natural hat trick was completed at 4:26 of the final stanza. Center Marek Zagrapan poked the puck into the Monarchs zone to right wing Mark Mancari at the right point. Mancari took a couple of steps before snapping a shot on net. Monarchs netminder Jonathan Bernier made the save but Murphy was on the doorstep to bury the rebound and send the hats flying from the stands.
The scoreless first period produced some entertainment for the fans when a fisticuffs broke out between Monarchs left wing Richard Clune and Pirates defenseman Geoff Waugh. Clune was credited with the take down.
The Colin Murphy Show began at 2:17 of the second period when he tallied his eighth goal of the season. Zagrapan battled with Monarchs center Justin Azevedo along the left wing boards. Azevedo attempted to clear the puck but his pass landed on the stick of Murphy just above the right face-off circle. The winger skated down the right wing, cut toward the net and flipped a backhander around Bernier. Defenseman Marc-Andre Gragnani assisted on the first goal of the game.
Murphy's second tally of the night tickled the twine as his teammate, left wing Nathan Gerbe, sat in the penalty box for hooking. Off the face-off in the Monarchs zone, Murphy won the draw and picked up the loose puck in the neutral zone. He carried the puck down the left wing and then headed toward the net once he reached the face-off circle. Side-stepping Monarchs defenseman Viatcheslav Voynov, Murphy sent another backhander past Bernier for his ninth goal of the season at 7:31 of the middle frame for his first shorthanded goal of the season.
Just before the two teams headed to the locker room, Azevedo placed a clean, open-ice hit on Portland's center Tim Kennedy. Not liking the hit, the two non-enforcers dropped the gloves for a quick bought at 19:34 of the middle period.
Just over two minutes after Murphy completed his first hat trick of the season, Gragnani scored a power play goal to bring the score to 4-0 at 6:42 of the third period. Right wing Colton Fretter carried the puck into the Monarchs zone and found Gragnani in the high slot for a blistering shot that beat Bernier. Zagrapan picked up his third assist on the night.
Bernier was replaced by goaltender Daniel Taylor following Gragnani's ninth goal of the season.
Center Marc-Andre Cliche put the Monarchs on the scoreboard at 9:53 of the final frame. Left wing Matt Moulson dug the puck out from behind the net and sent a short pass to Cliche at the right doorstep. The second year center jammed it past netminder Jhonas Enroth for his fifth tally of the season. Right wing David Meckler assisted on Manchester's tally.
Azevedo cut Portland's lead in half with his 12th tally of the season at 13:38 of the third period. Center Marty Murray passed the puck from the right wing half wall to Azevedo in the right circle. The rookie center's shot on net was blocked by a Pirates player. The puck bounced behind the Pirates player for center Gabe Gauthier to pick up and pass to Azevedo at the bottom of the circle for a wrist shot and the goal.
The Monarchs comeback was short-lived as Gerbe netted his 26th goal of the season at 17:26 to finish the game with Portland having the 5-2 advantage. On the power play, left wing Mathieu Darche skated into the Monarchs zone at the right point and passed the puck over to Gerbe in the left face-off circle for the one-timer that beat Taylor. Kennedy also picked up an assist on the final goal.
"It's been a challenge trying to find chemistry and consistency in our team with the depleted lineup," said Morris. "We have our work cut out for us from this point forward to climb back into the race and to secure a playoff spot."
Bernier (20-22-4) took his 22nd loss of the season stopping 21-of-25 shots through two and a half periods of play. Taylor (7-2-2) replaced Bernier at 6:42 of the third period and stopped 3-of-4 shots. Enroth (22-21-5) earned his 22nd victory of the season with 24 saves.
Manchester went 0-for-2 on the power play. Portland was 2-5 with the man advantage.
The Monarchs return to the Verizon Wireless Arena for three home games in four nights starting on Wednesday, April 1 when Manchester hosts the Lowell Devils in a 7:00 p.m. puck drop.

URGENT - Syria-Authority-President
Published 8:51 PM EDT Aug 31, 2013
(CNN) -- President Barack Obama has authority to act without Congress -- even if it rejects his request for authorization to use military force in Syria, a senior administration official told CNN on Saturday. The official was expanding on what the president said in his Rose Garden statement: "... while I believe I have the authority to carry out this military action without specific congressional authorization, I know that the country will be stronger if we take this course, and our actions will be even more effective."

Customer ReviewsReviewed by 1 customer Displaying review 1 Pros Cons Best Uses Comments about Dantona 3.7V Li-ion Wireless Phone Battery for Kyocera: The TXBAT10107 battery I needed for my Kyocera phone was "Out Of Stock" on the Virgin Mobile website, so I figured buying a generic one from Radio Shack would be fine. Not so much. As soon as I put it into my phone, a message came up and told me that I had put a battery into my phone that wasn't an "authentic" Kyocera battery, and that it wasn't rechargable. Luckily I was able to copy down all of my contacts before it died, and put them into the new phone I had no choice but to buy (turns out the TXBAT10107 battery has been discontinued by Kyocera...I hadn't even had the phone for a year, and had to buy a brand new one). So yeah, if you're looking for a Kyocera battery, don't waste your money on this one.

FriendsWithYou Blows Up "Happy Rainbow" In Hong Kong
This content series is in partnership with smartwater. smartwater, live a life well hydrated. Click here to learn more.
It seems like the duo behind FWY can go from 2D to 3D with a quick snap of the finger. Borkson and Sandoval decided to give us a glimpse into the schematic phase of the Happy Rainbow exhibition, with their conceptual illustrations – which are art in itself. The joyous characters are first created on a two dimensional wonderland, then transformed into an interactive rainbow shrine. We caught up with Borkson and Sandoval, and decided to ask them some trivial questions, to get a better idea of who they are and how they work (note: Borkson and Sandoval answered the questions as one – which made us smile.)
KNSTRCT: If aliens came to our planet, and you could send only one person to be an ambassador, to talk them out of annihilating the human race, who would you send?
FWY: me
K: When you sleep at night, do you dream of the color spectrum? Do more than less objects in your dreams have smiley faces?
FWY: No, there are so many things that happen in dreams – so abstract or normal situations or magical ideas or things that are not quite explainable.
K: FriendsWithYou expresses their dream of pushing evil out of the world, we love this concept! What's your game plan on kicking evil out?
FWY: I think we do this in our personal lives. We don't want to kick out evil. Sometimes it's necessary. We just want to arm people with power and increase love and magic between all people.
K: Would you consider the TV series Jersey Shore a reality show? or a documentary?
FWY: It's just awesome
K: FriendsWithYou has copyrights to the term "Magic, Luck, and Friendship. Do either of you practice magic?
FWY: We both do!
K: Who do you like more, your mom? or your dad?
FWY: love them both differently.
K: Do you prefer to read fiction? or non-fiction?
FWY: I like fictional graphic novels depicting factual stories or legends the best.
K: What should we expect from FriendsWithYou next?
FWY: Everything…

This lightened-up version of a Tex-Mex favorite is ideal for cooler weather, flavored with rich pumpkin and spicy tomatoes. Serve with tortilla chips or raw veggies for dipping.
This unusual gravy gets wonderful depth of flavor and natural sweetness from roasted garlic and parsnip. You can prepare it up to three days ahead, refrigerate it and reheat it just before serving.
Turn a bit of leftover Brie (that is if you actually have any leftover) into a rich and creamy fall soup with the combination of sweet and tart apples.
Citrus-honey soaked pineapple cubes, strawberries and bananas covered with shredded coconut, dusted with chocolate and served frozen on a stick. What a spectacular treat on a hot summer evening and proof that some desserts are as tasty as they are good for you.
Topped with buttery, crunchy bread crumbs and golden brown onions, this twist on green bean casserole calls for shiitake mushrooms. Substitute button mushrooms for half or all of the shiitakes, if you prefer.
This easy, hearty chicken stew is packed with fall flavors: apples, sweet potatoes and aromatic sage. Whole fennel seeds add depth to the stew and become mellow during slow cooking. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
Topped with crisp bacon, green onions and sour cream, these baked sweet potato hors d'oeuvres could be crowned the champion of your next cocktail party. For best results, look for sweet potatoes that are long and thin, roughly 2 1/2 inches wide.
Here's a simple, adaptable brine recipe that will give roasted turkey a terrific flavor base. This produces 1 gallon, which should be adequate to submerge a small turkey (up to 12 pounds) (or 2 chickens). Double the recipe for birds up to 20 pounds.
Nothing beats a big bowl of vibrantly flavored, veggie-packed soup for lunch or dinner, and preparing it in a slow cooker means you can make a big batch with minimal effort.
Toasted pecans, walnuts or pine nuts are good substitutions in this salad. You can make it a main course by serving on a platter topped with sliced grilled chicken or turkey breast, sliced pork tenderloin or grilled tempeh.
Looking for a sweet, refreshing snack or breakfast? Try this creamy smoothie.
This creamy dressing is at its best when tossed with crisp romaine or iceberg lettuce. Use it as a dip for raw carrot and celery sticks, radishes and steamed asparagus spears, too.
There will be looks of envy from the meat-eating crowd when you serve this colorful and delicious entrée of bell peppers stuffed with mushrooms, carrots, spinach, quinoa and cashews. For a beautiful presentation, choose a combination of green, red, orange and...
An ideal entrée for those who don't want or need to cook an entire turkey but would like the "turkey with stuffing" experience. The preparation, herb butter, and stuffing can be made one day in advance, easing the workload on turkey day.
Trust us, you'll want to serve these tender, spicy braised greens with cornbread on the side so that you can crumble it into the bowl to soak up the "pot likker".
This vinegar-free dressing is surely good on a salad, and really good on a baked potato or in mashed potatoes.
In Greece, rich, thick yogurt is often used in recipes or served as a treat. Greek yogurt is significantly thicker than the yogurt we are used to in the U.S.
Tart cranberries, crunchy pistachios and a drizzle of dark chocolate add flavor and charming color to these cookies. Dip them in coffee, hot chocolate or Vin Santo, a sweet Italian dessert wine.

Logo: Two Oceans Restaurant Identity Design Proposal 3, ID: 58729
, Posted: Mon, 01/30/2012 - 05:28
Logo details
I have created a elegant and classy symbolic logo using shapes and curvy font.
The restaurant is located is at Cape Point which I have created the tip of the cliff at the center representing the tip of Africa where the crashing waves is happening below it. I picked Green colour in which can relate to fresh view and fresh food with fresh spectacular view.
The Unique part is the two oceans in pointed curved triangle meet which creates a motion of the strong waves crashing each other. They are defined in 2 colours, the Indian Ocean on the left in Marine Blue and Atlantic Ocean on the right in Aqua Blue that creates a beautiful contrast. And the colour is similar in the photo.
I have picked a curvy font for the restaurant's name to support the elegant look of the logo and a classy font for the restaurant word.
Included in price
- Watermark removed from logo artwork.
- Full and exclusive rights. Logo sold only once.
- Various formats available: EPS, PNG, JPG and others on request.
- Designer contact information.

Republicans are criticizing the Obama administration for overstating the impacts in an attempt to pressure them into a deal.
"There's a lot of questions about how the White House is handling the communications on this," House Speaker John Boehner said shortly after the cuts took effect on March 1.
In response to a recent administration request for states to reimburse some already allocated funds due to the sequester, 31 House members -- including four Democrats -- sent a letter last week calling the move "an obvious attempt ... to make the sequester as painful as possible."
Obama argues that anything to stunt economic growth as the recovery continues to struggle should be avoided. However, he may have lost some credibility after statements in the heat of the political battle in February that now seem overzealous.
"Federal prosecutors will have to close cases and let criminals go," the president said on Feb. 19. "Air traffic controllers and airport security will see cutbacks, which means more delays at airports across the country. Thousands of teachers and educators will be laid off. Tens of thousands of parents will have to scramble to find childcare for their kids. Hundreds of thousands of Americans will lose access to primary care and preventive care like flu vaccinations and cancer screenings."
Ten days later, with a compromise unreachable and the cuts kicking in, Obama toned down the rhetoric.
"What's important to understand is that not everyone will feel the pain of these cuts right away," he told a news conference, later adding that "we will get through this. This is not going to be an apocalypse, I think as some people have said. It's just dumb. And it's going to hurt."
The bottom line, according to Thomas Mann and Norman Ornstein of the Brookings Institution, is that the damage from the forced spending cuts "will accumulate in less visible ways, as irrational reductions in public spending impede economic growth and job creation; reduce investments in education, infrastructure and scientific research; and further disrupt the routines of a modern democracy."
"The longer the sequester remains in place," they recently wrote in the Washington Post, "the more harm is inflicted."
Fuller agreed that it would take years to assess the full impact of the sequester's impact now, but said that in the end, renewed confidence would mean a growing economy and "we'll forget about it at some point."

All Dog Rescue, a Natick animal shelter, announced Wednesday it received $1,500 in grants from the Massachusetts Animal Coalition through the sale of specialty "I am Animal Friendly" license plates across the state.
"The grant will be used towards All Dog Rescue's spay and neuter services," the shelter said in a press release. "We are also dedicated to reducing the pet overpopulation problem in Massachusetts by spaying or neutering every dog that passes through our organization."
The shelter relies on grants and adopter donations for medical treatment for its animals. Since its inception in 2003, the shelter has facilitated the rescue of more than 500 dogs.
"ADR is very grateful for the grant from the Massachusetts Animal Coalition; this is the second year in row that we have received the grant," Ronit Furman, Fundraising and Grant Coordinator of All Dog Rescue said.

I want to apologize to the other wife. We were friends before this all happened, and I never meant for it to happen, and I'm very sorry. But I can't tell if apologizing to her would just make her feel worse. Would you want to hear an apology in her shoes? Or should I leave it alone?

Luongo Mania Revisited
But let's put it all in persepctive as he approaches Bernie Parent's record of 47 wins in a season by a goaltender. If Luongo sets the record, there should be an asterisk in the record books because of this new overtime system. A significant number of Roberto's victories have come in overtime or via the shoot-out. Parent, and other great goalies of the past didn't have the benefit of this and shouldn't be penalized for not having it.
Take nothing away from Roberto, great season and all, I'm just saying let's calm down a bit before we anoint this as the greatest season ever by a goalie.

I would mention Luongo for the Hart, but I wouldn't crown him the winner, because the team plays so damned well in front of him.
Even in last night's game against the Preds, Luongo didn't have to be great at all.
Good point about the OT and shootout though. There really should be an asterisk there in the books, just to be factual, and to keep on honoring just how amazing Parent's record really is under different rules. - 2:15 PM
Is that a picture of you off to the side? Why is your eye patched? Are you in a limo?
Explain please. - 3:02 PM
- Jes Gőlbez said...
Dear anonymous,
That picture is of PAVOL DEMITRA.
The fact that you didn't know that speaks volumes about your hockey knowledge.
Please die. - 3:23 PM
okay, thanks - 5:34 PM
- Temujin said...
No Asterisk. No Comparison. No Question.
Luongo is the best ever.
Heh, just kidding. Parent's numbers are outstanding, and all the most impressive considered the time in which he played. - 9:02 PM
Has Luongo been better than Backstrom this season??? Where would the Wild have been if Backstrom was in net all season and playing the way he has played? Backstrom has better stats all around except the wins and shutouts but when you play like half a season instead of Luongo who plays every game his team plays then you won't get those stats. Of course there is something to be said for the endurance of the season but more to look at then just wins.
- Zanstorm said...
Has Luongo been better than Backstrom? In games played yes. But in my opinion I wouldn't give Luongo a clear cut decision over Backstrom at all otherwise.
Luongo has been great at times, but really doesn't face alot of quality shots because of the smothering Canucks' defence.
What? That's Demitra? Get out! haha - 2:38 PM
- Temujin said...
Put Backstrom on the Flyers and he would suck ass.
Put Luongo on the Flyers and they are in the playoff hunt. - 8:43 PM

Implementation of the Energiewende, the German energy transition, has been discussed intensively. It is expected that Germany will be unable to use up [...]

Getting a chance to lead a institution like Vanderbilt is a dream come true for Limbaugh.
"It is great opportunity for me," Limbaugh said. "Vanderbilt is such a great university and it is in a great location. I am just ecstatic to hopefully lead Vanderbilt to be champions on and off the golf course. They have given me a great opportunity there. David Williams, vice chandler and Rod Williamson, they believe in me. When my wife and I went up there through the interview process the whole family atmosphere amongst the athletics program is something that we were really excited about. The opportunity to continue to coach in the SEC at such a great institution like Vanderbilt is a dream come true for me."
While being a part of the Crimson Tide's staff, Limbaugh learned what it takes to lead a program.
"It is the players here that mean so much to me and coach Jay Seawell, the head coach here (Alabama)," Limbaugh said. "He truly has been a mentor for me. He and his wife have really showed us what building a program is all about. That is what I am going to try at Vanderbilt. One that represents everything that is right and that is what my goals will be."
During his tenure with the Tide, he served as the recruiting coordinator. Limbaugh developed a reputation of one of the best recruiters in the nation. He coached 10 All-Americans, three of them earned first team honors.
"Just as far as here at Alabama, we had the opportunity to coach Michael Thompson, who just finished in the United State Open," he said. "Bud Cauley, who is on the PGA Tour. We got the best player in the country who was just a freshman this year Justin Thomason. The players give us this opportunity, they believed in us here. The University of Alabama, the athletic department here is a great place. From Coach Mal Moore, the athletic director to the entire administration the support they have given me and my family in my five years here. I will always be thankful for that. They are going to have a special place in my heart for a long time."
Limbaugh said his hometown and his home golf course helped him get to the position he is in now.
" Coosa Pines is my home golf course — it is still my home golf course and it will always will be no matter where this game takes me," Limbaugh said. " Childersburg is home and Coosa Pines is my home golf course. That is exciting, I am a Childersburg person. I grew up there and I played all the sports in high school.
There are several people that mean a lot to me. Obviously, my parents are there and there are some coaches there. There are people there and I hate to start naming particular people, because I will leave somebody out. Chad Slaten, he was my basketball and baseball coach there at Childersburg. There are a lot of people there that mean a lot to me that kind of taught me what it means to be a coach and the kind of coach that I want to be. There are a lot of people that played a role in my life from Childersburg and I am thankful for that."
Limbaugh graduated from Childersburg in 1998. He played three sports including basketball. He said being the teammate of an NBA star is his claim to fame.
"I passed a lot of alley oops to Gerald Wallace," Limbaugh said.
"I don't know if anyone else remembers that I was on the team, but I was on the court. I was just smart enough to know that he is going to be pretty good. I threw a lot of alley oops to him in my day. I guess that is my claim to fame is that I threw alley oops to an NBA All-Star."
After high school, Limbaugh walked on at Central Alabama Community College. After two year there he went on to Huntingdon College where he earned his degree. Huntingdon also gave Limbaugh his first coaching job.
" I was always kind of good at golf," Limbaugh said.
"I was not a star golfer at any time. I wasn't good enough at any of the other sports to play collegiate level. I was just a guy that played hard. I was pretty good at golf, but never gave it my undivided attention. I had a walk- on tryout for Central Alabama Community College and the coach offered me a spot on the team. I ended up earning the golf scholarship. I was fortunate enough that both of my years there we won Junior College National Championships. I went on to get another golf scholarship to Huntingdon College in Montgomery. Then I became the head coach there a year after I graduated. I was the head coach for Huntingdon for three years. Huntingdon gave me my first opportunity and there was somebody there that saw something in me that they believed I should be a head coach at the age of 24. That is kind of where this thing started. I had some great players that believed in me and we had some success. Then, coach Seawell gave me the opportunity to be the assistant coach at Alabama."

A fire at a rental home in southeast Bend Saturday morning was traced to a faulty exhaust fan motor in the bathroom.
At 10 a.m., Bend Fire Department units were called to 52 S.E. Taft Avenue, just west of the Parkway and south of Southeast Wilson Avenue. Crews found a fire in the attic upon their arrival, and cut a hole in the roof to extinguish the blaze.
Initial investigation suggests the exhaust fan motor overheated and ignited the insulation in the roof above the bathroom. Damages to the structure were estimated at $4,000.

The rich biological diversity of Corcovado National Park is outstanding. You will take a 20-minute boat ride to San Pedrillo Ranger Station, at the entrance to the park. En route keep watch for dolphins and other marine life before passing the nesting spot of the brown booby. There is a wet landing on arrival so bring suitable footwear for both this and your hike through the park. A naturalist guide will lead you on a 2-hour hike through primary and secondary rainforests while pointing out the abundant wildlife and flora. This area is home to four types of monkeys as well as coatis, sloths, and anteaters. Keep watch for spectacular scarlet macaws, toucans, and a wide variety of avian species. Soon the blue waters of the Pacific will beckon you to take a refreshing dip and enjoy fresh fruit and other refreshments. Return to the ship by boat after a morning of sheer delights.
Here is another great way to see the stunning area of Drake Bay! Horses are available for both the experienced and novice rider alike, as you will spend 3 ½ hours exploring the beaches, rivers, 9-foot waterfall, and tropical rainforest of the area, spotting birds and wildlife with your naturalist guide. Your horse can walk peacefully as you enjoy your surroundings, or take you for an exciting ride across the sand! There will also be time for swimming and relaxing on the beach
Cruise to the Osa Peninsula, where migrations from both the northern and southern hemispheres endow this region with the longest humpback whale season in the world! Your adventure will begin when you board the boat and soon you head off to Drake Bay, in search of humpback whales, spotted, and bottlenose dolphins. Other sightings may include manta rays, numerous turtle species, large schools of tuna, and an occasional marlin or sailfish. Your Marine Wildlife Safari adventure is enhanced throughout by the informative commentary of a naturalist guide who will describe the biology, behavior and habits of the various wildlife species. Throughout, you will have excellent photo opportunities. Your excursion will conclude with a cooling swim and tasty snacks at San Josecito Beach before returning to the yacht.
Follow a professional guide through one of Costa Rica's most famous national parks. The spectacular natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere attract many visitors to Golfo Dulce annually. Explore a park that is home to numerous species of butterflies, monkeys, reptiles, and orchids. The National Wildlife Refuge of Golfito has special characteristics. The area around Golfito is ideal for scientific research and the refuge was created in 1945 by the Banana Company of Costa Rica who later passed it on to the Costa Rican government in 1984. The Wildlife Refuge of Golfito provides a home to more than 125 species of trees, including four that are in danger of extinction such as: the Peltogyne Purpurea, the Tachigalia Versicolor, the Butternut, and the M.Guianensis. There are 11 species of heliconias, 31 species of orchids, and more than 12 species of ferns. Four species of monkeys also live here, along with 300 species of birds (120% more than found in North America), 139 mammal species, and more than 200 species of amphibians and reptiles.
Here is an exhilarating way to get to experience the primary forest – from the true perspective of a canopy dweller! See it as the sloths, monkeys, and toucans do – from 100 feet up "flying" from tree to tree! You'll see 10 cables and 11 platform stations winding through the rich forested mountains over Golfito Bay, exposing expansive views of the Pacific and close-up looks at the canopy habitat inside and out. Under the care of a professionally trained guide you will be strapped in your patented security harness, hooked up to the network of cables, and off you go!
From the main pier, you will travel by boat through Golfo Dulce with a great view of some of the most intense rainforest landscapes found in the world. The green-blue landscape is beyond any description. There are occasions when a red bright spot comes into the picture and you will be astonished with the scarlet macaws and their noisy freedom! After a wet landing, you will arrive at the Rescue Center and be welcomed by Carol and her two babies, Sweetie and Winkie, two juvenile spider monkeys who will accompany you throughout your visit as you see tayra, the sloths, and macaws. Osa Wildlife Sanctuary is committed to providing wildlife rescue, rehabilitation, and the release of orphaned, injured, or displaced animals indigenous to the Southern Pacific zone of Costa Rica. After this gratifying experience a visit follows to Casa Orquideas, a beautiful garden that contains all sorts of tropical plants and plant species brought from all over the world. There will be so much to learn while you visit the medicinal gardens and indulge your senses with the beauty and perfume of the enormous amount of flowers in so many different colors and shapes. Casa Orquideas is considered by many bird watchers to be one of the best sites in the area to spot beautiful birds such as toucans, aracaris, tanagers, honey creepers, manikins, and many more.
Here is your opportunity to cross Golfo Dulce at a slow, relaxing pace listening to the sounds of the scarlet macaws that are this area's most common bird. Your kayak guides will be waiting with your kayak and paddle, ready for you to go on this fun experience! Once instructions are given and equipment is set you'll be paddling to little Pelican Island. Here you might be able to see spectacular caimans, as well as several aquatic bird species. After enjoying this beautiful sanctuary you will paddle on to the mangroves forest, where, even though wildlife observation is not guaranteed, you'll be able to see several bird species, crabs and when lucky, white-faced monkeys, raccoons, and other mammals. Paddle to the beach where your guides will serve you water, iced tea, fresh seasonal fruits like pineapple and watermelon to keep your energy up for the paddle back to the ship!
Manuel Antonio National Park is the jewel of Costa Rica. Its fragile rainforest ecosystem shelters abundant wildlife including the easy to spot monkeys and a great variety of tropical birds. The dense rainforest opens into small, well-maintained trails where your naturalist tour guide will share information about the area. Another great attraction is the white-sand beach that meets the jungle. Your 1-1/2 hour guided walk will lead you to the beach where you will have time for sunbathing. Manuel Antonio Park protects 683 hectares of tropical rainforest and over 1,000 different species of flora. This walk is by far one of the best in Costa Rica, and is easy walking with no uphill climbs. An optional drop off in the town of Quepos is also available, where you will find several restaurants and shops.
A boat ride through the mangroves is like visiting another world. The species of trees that grow in the mixed waters of the ocean and the river make a unique and very fragile ecosystem. Most of these trees grow along the estuary, developing an aerial root system. As the tide goes down the roots become suspended in the air creating a perfect home for crabs and crocodiles. In the upper part of the forest you will see monkeys and a great variety of birds including herons, egrets, and spoonbills. The launch will take you to a private property for refreshments as your naturalist tour guide gives you more information about this amazing ecosystem. Your shaded boat will then take you deep into the mangroves, where you will try to spot all the incredible wildlife that makes their home there. After a 2- hour boat ride you will arrive at the village where transportation will be waiting to drive you back to the ship. An optional drop off in Quepos is also available, where you will find several restaurants and shops.
You will depart from Quepos on a 1-1/2 hour transfer by air-conditioned motor coach to the rural town of El Silencio passing by palm, teak, and melina plantations. After a short stop where you can often spot toucans and macaws, you will continue toward the town of Santo Domingo, where a group of qualified bilingual guides are waiting for you to start this 2-hour class I & II amazing river float. They will give you an orientation on the river and its natural environment, considered one of the most beautiful rivers of Central America. The scenery and wildlife along the Rio Savegre will give you an opportunity to enjoy beautiful landscapes, including some native African oil palm plantations, white ibis, cormorants, egrets, crocodiles, and herons.
For those who love to fish, Quepos is an excellent option. Unlike Northern Costa Rica, Quepos is protected from the winter winds and is considered one of the top fishing destinations in the World. After approximately 45-minutes of sailing to the southwest (20-25 miles off shore) your boat will arrive at the deep sea area known for catching sailfish, marlin, tuna, and mahi-mahi. For the best and easiest fishing the bait that will be used is either moli or balihu. Blue Fin II is a 28-foot custom sportfisher, with a 315 HP inboard Cummins engine, tower with full controls, IGFA Tackle, Penn International Reels, LEE Fighting Chair, cabin with a bed, and a marine toilet, manned by a captain and first mate with many years of experience in fly fishing, and catch & release.
Imagine yourself soaring high above the jungle floor as you fly through tree tops, amid some of the most beautiful flora and fauna in the Costa Rican rainforest! This canopy tour is an exciting adventure that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. You will fly for a mile over the jungle canopy suspended on solid steel cables attached to a personal, high-tech, lightweight harness. During your journey you'll stop and rest at 16 strategically located platforms and 12 cables where you are most likely see the surrounding wildlife. Many of these platforms are almost 100 feet high, nestled in the trunks and branches of trees that are centuries old. The staff of professionally trained guides will help you look for the abundant wildlife along the way; including Titi monkeys, two- and three-toed sloths, poison dart frogs, iguanas, and toucans. The exhilaration of a zip line is unlike anything you have ever experienced.

TWD: Brrrr-ownies
This week's Tuesdays with Dorie was chosen by Karen of Welcome to our Crazy Blessed Life: brrrr-ownies! The inclusion of mint, in the form of York Peppermint Patties, makes these brownies extra special. As flavor combinations go, chocolate and mint is right up there for me with chocolate and peanut butter so I had high hopes for these brownies.
I confess that when it comes to brownies, the ones from the box taste just as good to me as most homemade recipes. That said, I generally make them from scratch instead of buying the mix because it's so easy. This recipe was no different - melt chocolate and butter in a double boiler, then whisk in sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, flour and salt. Finally, the peppermint patties are chopped into little bits and folded into the batter before baking. I was careful to chop mine quite small thanks to some tips from the other bakers (one of the advantages to baking at the last minute, you get to benefit from everyone elses' experiences!) who'd had some trouble with their brownies. I'd lined my pan with aluminum foil, which I sprayed generously with cooking spray, and I had no trouble getting my brownies out of the pan or off of the foil. They cut easily too and smelled amazing!! The mint was very fragrant!
The minute they were cool, I tried a brownie. My first thought upon taking a bite - "wow, these are really, really rich." They were even too rich for me to have a second, which is saying a lot because I really love brownies. I gave most of them away to my friend (Shane doesn't like mint, otherwise I'd have shared with him as rich chocolate treats are definitely his cup of tea), but I haven't been able to touch base yet and get her thoughts. Hopefully she and her coworkers enjoyed them. Big thanks to Karen for hosting this week! She will share the recipe on her blog today or, alternatively, you can find it on page 103 of Baking: From My Home to Yours.
Also, I want to thank those of you who sent luck and positive thoughts to Shane at his race this past weekend. He did incredibly well and I'm hoping to find time to share photos and more information on Wednesday :)

Yours look fantastic - good thinking to make the patties into small bits. I also found these a bit rich for my taste - a little greasy, even. But you can't beat mint and chocolate together (well, you can, with peanut butter and chocolate...).

Mint from your herbs? It looks so nice parked next to that brownie, sort of spiffs it all up elevating it from snack food to possible elegant dessert food. They look great.

Mint in brownies reminds of a baking failure I had when I was a young child. I made these 3 layered brownies I would always make, except I decided to get creative and added mint extract to the middle layer of whipping cream/powd. sugar. I added way too much mint and the brownies tasted like toothpaste. A definite betty crapper moment.

incredible pictures of the brownies. They look so delicious.
Glad Shane did well in the race. Death Valley next. LOL - July 15, 2010 at 12:59 AM

Apparently, being abroad and away from your love ones isn't easy. You should be creative in killing time. You got to be tougher in battling with solitude. Otherwise, you'll be in the losing end.
In my 4 months of working in Penang, it has always been an effort not to be lonely. Other than going to the malls during weekends, mostly not to shop but just stroll and pig-out, or more often than not, spend time in coffee shops, surfing the net for cheap airfares and whatnot, I also download CD-albums, movies and TV series.
When I was in Pinas, my wife and I enjoyed watching the following series…
And never did I imagine I'd be glued on GLEE!
It started with downloading weekly epsiodes from season 2 few weeks ago, then it became a hard habit to break.
I found myself singing, snapping fingers and stomping my feet while watching this fantastic scene in my room; see for yourself…
Reminds me so much of my High School days.
I'm officially GLEEk.
And you?

With a vote on the "Buffett rule'' scheduled for today, Lamar Alexander of Tennessee was one of a handful of Republican senatorsthe White House thought it could squeeze by cranking up the political rhetoric surrounding the proposed millionaires' tax. The procedural maneuver is destined to fail. The effort reveals a president hell bent on re-election, determined to avoid any substantive issues, and offending the very type of leader that he claims America needs - and that he wishes he were.

Michael Stipe
Michael Stipe
As the frontman for R.E.M., arguably the most important and influential American rock band of the post-punk era, Michael Stipe transformed himself from enigmatic cult hero into mainstream icon. Famed for his confoundingly opaque lyrics and notoriously mumbled delivery, the once-introverted Stipe translated his growing fame into an outlet to champion his social and political concerns, emerging as one of popular music's most respected figures, as well as the acknowledged forefather of the alternative rock movement. Born John Michael Stipe in Decatur, GA, on January 4, 1960, he was a military brat whose life was forever changed by Patti Smith's Horses album; Television's Marquee Moon and Wire's Pink Flag were also massive influences on his musical sensibility, and during high school he joined a punk cover band. While studying painting and photography at the University of Georgia, Stipe befriended aspiring guitarist Peter Buck, and with bassist Mike Mills and drummer Bill Berry, they formed R.E.M. in 1980. Honing an atmospheric, jangly pop sound often reminiscent of the Byrds, R.E.M. toured relentlessly prior to issuing their debut single, "Radio Free Europe," on the tiny Hib-Tone label in mid-1981; the record's success on college radio attracted the attention of IRS Records, which released the band's Chronic Town EP a year later.

At only nineteen years of age Veronika has high hopes for her future.
BORN IN a small village in the Czech Republic she moved to Prague to work on her modeling carrier. It's tough to be a young person today with hopes of fame and fortune but Veronika is determined to see her dreams become a reality.
Besides modeling, Veronika works as a stylist in a local theater. When not in front of the camera herself she loves to transform stage performers into stars, reflecting her own wishes onto their perfectly made up faces. For Veronika it's all show business, and if she fails in her career as a model, she would be just as happy doing make up instead. Though a little shy, Veronika has plenty of sensual appeal to go around.
A perfect beauty both on and off camera we hope her dreams will take her far.
jason chang United States | No moles For some reason, I enjoy seeing beautiful models with no moles or minimum moles on their skin with very great closeup. This model here is very beautiful and has no moles. That is why I like this site so much. |

ardunbye United Kingdom | Veronika F.antiques Veronika is lovely but what are fantiques? |
jason chang United States | Excellent pictures What I like about Veronica is she is bit tanned skin, which adds to my variety of my 6000 pixel collection. She also has a perfect face and a perfect body. You really can see the skin texture super well and of course is many times clearer than viewing the girls in a live strip club. *I would pay more to obtain these pictures. |

Hawkeye450 United States | Veronika F is unratable A remarkable and natural beauty but I have to ask, why are there no full figure shots? Everything is cut at the knee in both shoots. Neither Gallery is ratable - too incomplete. |
emacs Canada | impressive these images at 4500 x 6000 are truly impressive. i'm more surprised the resolution is only 28.346 pixels/cm (72 dpi). i've seen lots of images at much higher resolutions but the quality isn't as good. interesting ... |
Rob Leaver United States | Veronika F. Series The 6000 pix are astounding! Wonderful! Makes you love these fellow humans for their humanness as well as their physical and sexual beauty. Congrats! |
James Barton United States | models If all or most of your models were not so bony-bone thin, scrawny, more like Veronika Chandler, Diedra, Fabi & Susha, i.e. more voluptuous, Iwould remin a subscriber. But I can't take the 95% concentration camp look. JCB |
timatits United States | Around the Curves The chandelier is not the only thing that is finely cut in this series. This woman has a very soft and natural body and unlike the chandelier, we do not see a single edge. The upward sloping angle of the camera and the great contrast with the background amplify every curve. Peter did not open her legs or spread her vaginal lips, although I am sure many longed for that in such high def. Instead he keeps us longing for that last set of round edges. Not that the series will fail to stimulate. The pictures of her ass and the undersides of the beasts (mostly on page 3) assure a distinctive sensuous appeal by blending in with the more traditional shots of the girl to give us a dizzying collection of curves and spheres. |
paul United States | more/Vericonica F. We will love to see more of this beauty and also video. thank you, paul |
Glenn United States | Veronika film 183 This is a nice little tease. Veronika is a beauty, and she just gets away with it, while I think that giving up just a little bit more would have been a better video. This is tame compared to what it could have been, and you know what I mean. |
Nick United States | Veronika is so hot its just amazing. She got a bad debuet with this video.. give her another chance. WOW is she a beaut! |

I bend to kiss the girls as they head out the door to a birthday party at a friend's house down the street.
With this mouth.
I tease them with an over-exuberant display of my affection. I blow kisses after them as they hurry away. Call my love out after them.
With this mouth.
