I modeled this mask as part of a digital Green Hornet photo-manip that I completed. Having the digital model "left over" I then decided to design a ring out of it and this was the result. I had it 3D-printed by Shapeways in Glossy Silver and was really happy with the results. You can see it in my store on Shapeways. I currently have a ring in US size 9.25 ready to ship for $80 on Etsy.

Binary LOVE Pendant
Looking for that perfect gift for that computer nerd in your life? Now, to accompany my nerdy "They Walk Among Us" bracelet (http://www.shapeways.com/model/152181/they_walk_among_us_____bracelet.html?gid=ug31952) I have designed this pendant. The featured computer binary code spells out the word LOVE.
"They Walk Among Us!!" A bracelet for the truly Geeky!
This is a white (or black – your choice) acrylic bracelet that I made for that truly geeky person you know – maybe it's you!
The phrase "They Walk Among Us!!" is 'engraved' into the entire band in Binary Code – the language of computers. Do an Internet search of that phrase with the word 'aliens' added on the end and have some fun reading.
Would make a great gift for geeks, alien believers or all round nerds!
The inside diameter measures just under 2 inches, and the cost is US$25 which INCLUDES shipping. I can design a larger or smaller one, if needed. Also available in stainless steel at $110.20.
This is my own design and there are only two places you can buy it from, both of which I control.
Note that the image is a computer render. Specify if you want white or black.
Edited 15th Nov 2010 to add photos of bracelet:

Well let's see... I was born in the North, raised in the South but I'm not a typical Southern lady. I love to dress up but I'm also OK with getting dirty with my hair all a mess. And spending time with my girls is always a lot of fun but I love spending a Saturday/Sunday watching football (Go Auburn Tigers & Pittsburgh Steelers!!) and hanging out with the boys.
I graduated from Auburn University and if you ask anyone of my friends you will find out that I am a die hard fan of not just the football team but of the school. It has made me the woman I am today. So if there are any fellow Auburn grads on here... WAR EAGLE!!!
I've been in Charlotte for more than 5 years now and I'm a producer at a local TV station here. Yes that means I'm responsible for the news that is delivered to the good people of Charlotte. I have an amazing group of friends here who are like family to me and we do a lot of stuff together like beach camping, wakeboarding, drinking (ha!), etc. I've also really gotten into living a healthy lifestyle. I'm really big into hot yoga and circuit classes and right now I'm training for a Tough Mudder race in November. I will also try anything once and I'm looking for a guy who will push me to try new things.
Above everything, I'm just looking for a guy who will make me laugh! I have a very sarcastic/dirty sense of humor so any guy who can put up with that is great in my book. Trustworthiness, honesty and being able to have a great conversation are also very high on my list when it comes to finding my significant other.

External Drive
Maxtor One Touch 4 Plus 500GB
USB Connection
HP Pavillion M9040N
2 Dual Core Processors
650 Internal HDD
32 bit
Vista V6
Drive used to store files for 1 peer to peer file sharing program to access.
Files from preloaded software still on drive and can see files. I try to access files, receive error Windows cannot access the file specified, check spelling or path. Preloaded files also copied to C:\Program Files\Maxtor as per installation instructions.
When relocated from CA to TX and setup computer the Maxtor icon did not appear with the reconnection of the drive, but drive appeared in computer window as a drive attached. Did not think much on this as had not used the manager previously. Backups were run with another program. The Manager icon has again appeared in the system tray with trying to backup Maxtor or have it working.
A few days ago the drive started to not be recognized when the machine was booted. To get the drive to be recognized had to disconne4ct USB and power and let drive spin down. Reconnect power and then USB and the drive appears as a drive in computer window. . I noticed that files being uploaded by associates were having multiple problems, such as time out, being queued when total number of uploaders had not been reached. Files were from 200MB to 3.00GB. Also tried to copy and move files from Maxtor to a new file location on another drive, backup was lost when Free Agent 2TB was damaged.
Maxtor would freeze causing computer to freeze, requiring a complete power down. Computer will also not shut down or boot if Maxtor is attached. Maxtor also feels hot to the touch.
Is the Maxtor, Free Agent, Go Flex not engineered to have multiple simultaneous computers accessing the drive and files. This was main purpose for drive acquisition.
What is best method to get backup of data on Maxtor or to get Maxtor back to performing or to retrieve data, is approximately 460GB. I am feeling because of the heat to the touch issue that the drive is in serious failure.
Any help suggestions appreciated
Your HDD have problem....you must restore your files quickly.Try to use the "Restorer Ultimate Pro Network 7.0" or the "Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery" to restore your files....it is a very good program.
Thanks. I will give them a try, it has already been interesting experience dowqnloading them

Great point MikeThere's no law that says you HAVE to rent your box from the cable company, and that's a market ripe for cracking.
Great point MikeThere's no law that says you HAVE to rent your box from the cable company, and that's a market ripe for cracking.
Actually there is a law, and the cable company can shut you down as you would be violating the contract between them and their suppliers of content. The reason is that any device that can skip ads will remove the revenue model from TV programming. Somebody has to PAY for content. It would be a sad day indeed when films would be made only hobbiests - and I say this because almost no hobbiest feature length films are any good - I can think of basically none.
Speaking of cable, wasn't the original selling point that if you paid for programming, you wouldn't have to watch advertising?
Rob, of course VHS was a new source of revenue. My point is that the industry, by and large, did NOT see that at the time. The Luddites ruled, they wanted the status quo at any cost, so they kicked and screamed. In congress they screamed that it would kill it the industry and should be made illegal. In court they screamed that it already was illegal, it was piracy, and should be banned for contributing to copyright infringement.
They lost, in both venues. *Then*, perforce, they figured out how to make it a source of revenue.
A few years later they figured out that people were using VCRs and, later still, boxes like ReplayTV to fast-forward and skip commercials. You actually had Jamie Kellner standing up and saying, straight faced and serious, "skipping commercials is theft" - like, you legally have to watch the commercials.
With people like that saying things like that, it's hard to get taken seriously. Anytime *anything* new comes along in the distribution channel that isn't invented here, people scream that it needs to be made illegal, and at the same time say it already is illegal and the courts should ban it. But the genie *always* gets out of the bottle and can't be put back in. If you doubt that, try putting together a business plan to open a record store... do you remember when the music industry tried to get *MP3 players* banned by the courts??We have to figure out, as always, how to monetize it, how to shift our business model to take account of new technology. Anything else is Canute thinking.
Oh and there are a couple of great points down below about paying for programming, bait & switch, and cable; If you saw my cable bill before we gave the cable company the order of the boot, you would know we were damn well paying! My family simply doesn't watch TV any more, period - it's all Youtube, Vimeo, Netflix, and iTunes - the usual suspects. A lot more families will be going that way, I predict.
Bob, in the US you can still buy a cable ready tv that does not require a box... is that illegal in Canada?
also, several manufacturers sell dvd burners that will process the the throughput of a cable signal and record dvd-rs for you...not to mention dvrs..
are these also illegal and unavailable where you live?
the funniest thing about piracy is the pirates monetize it more then the actual content creators. try going to projectfreetv or zmovie or one of the hundreds of piracy sites, they have millions of pop ups to negotiate through until you can watch a pretty bad bootleg...
the quality of the bootlegs is often quite lacking, which i think helps keep people paying netflix, itunes, cable, etc and the silver screen...
as for skipping comercials, my friend does it with his Tivo constantly, until he stopped paying for it and started using pirate distribution. me personally, i like netflix since at least its not so overly compressed, and the audio doesn't sound like a handycam recorded it second hand. ps btw the bootlegs....have no commercials....
I know I will get ripped a new one for saying this....but piracy, in my opinion, had to somewhat help all the paid sites and DVD's sales. When Napster first came out, I remember my friends and I downloading stuff and eventually buying the real deal from the stores because we wanted quality. At least it gave me the first understanding of what online downloading was all about. I quickly moved to iTunes and forever stayed there.
...and I wonder why I am poor...all those 99 cent downloads add up...Freaky frak!

Africa and Diaspora |
The following are reproduced from "NUBIART - A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE ON THE AFRIKAN WORLD" - Sound Radio 1503AM. Web: www.soundradio.info. NUBIART EDITORIAL:
On midweek Nubiart we looked at two recent summits feeding into the discussion about the way forward for pan-Afrikanism and the role of the African Union. One summit was in Jamaica and the other was held in two parts of Afrika. The second report-back is particularly important as it relates to a 'World Conference on Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance' attended by delegates from all over the world which concluded on 8 September 2001, three days before the World Trade Centres were destroyed. The biggest stumbling block at the original conference were a minority cabal consisting of Britain, America, Israel and a few other fellow travellers who refused to accept that the Afrikan Holocaust (MA'AFA) was the biggest crime in human history for which those responsible and the beneficiaries should make just reparations for the damage their actions caused and the ongoing related exploitation. Addressing these issues, along with the United Nations 2015 Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), were to be the main focus for the first two decades of the 21st Century. After 11 Sep 2001 all this was put on the backburner and the US-invented never ending 'War on Terror' / 'War on Civilians' became the prism through which major international relations were viewed. The US / UK / Israeli / inter-Islamic dispute with Al-Qaida is not the most important political, economic, environmental, health, technological, cultural or social problem facing Afrikans - both on the continent and in the diaspora - but the Afrikan agenda has again been pushed to the backburner in the same way it was when Afrikans had to decide in the 1950s-80s if they were European capitalist or Soviet communist and not allowed to pursue their own Afrikan identity or economic and political agenda. Below are the report-backs: ~ Jamaica Pre-Summit Calls For An Afrikan Diaspora Union - from Minister P.D. Mene-lik Harris, May 8, 2007. To attend or support the Pan African Movement Summit at the University of the West Indies in Kingston, Jamaica from July 11-18, 2007, Tel: 718-523-3312 / 404-527-7756. Web: www.rhawpam.org/ or e-mail: email@example.com. "The United States is the most dangerous imperialist power, ever in human history" declared Elombe Brath during his opening address at the Pan African Movement Pre-Summit in Washington, D.C. He warned that a U.S. military command in Africa is accelerating global imperialist wars in a 'new scramble for Africa's resources to compete against the interests of Asians, the Arabs and Europeans in Africa. Elombe continued "We must build a strong Diaspora because Africa needs us…We are Africa's foreign policy experts and permanent observers in America for the last 500 hundred years." Our greatest challenge he concluded is "to overcome the trauma of Africa Imperialist Dependency Syndrome (AIDS)." "The May 5, 2007 meeting at Howard University consisted of representatives from various Pan African organizations and communities to support the launching of an Afrikan Diaspora Union (ADU) as an historic and sacred mission to re-integrate former enslaved Africans as part of a continental union of Africans. Speakers, leaders and students represented organizations such as the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), the Rastafari Movements, Republic of New Africa (RNA), All African Peoples Revolutionary Party (AAPRP), NCOBRA and ASCAC. "Addressing the issues relating to the direction and potential of the African Diaspora becoming a source of power for Africa and Africans, Dr. Leonard Jeffries described the vision for the Pre-Summit as embracing Africans across the Diaspora in an economic, cultural and political union with Africa. "The billions of dollars in North America when matched with the political successes of Africans in the Caribbean and African cultural integrity of those in countries like Brazil, will become a formidable force for African people in the world" stressed Dr. Leonard Jeffries. "The Pre-Summit was also focused on crafting an agenda in preparation for the Pan African Movement (PAM) Summit in Kingston, Jamaica from July 11-18, 2007. July 2007 will mark the 107th anniversary of the formal launching of the Pan African Movement by Africans from across the African world. The Pan African Movement was formally launched in 1900 by African leaders such as Sylvester Williams, Trinidad; WEB Dubois, U.S.A; Benito Sylvain, Haiti; Henry Cargill, Jamaica; Majola Agbebi, Nigeria; Tengo Jabavu, South Africa and Bishop McNeil Turner, USA. "In an article promoting participation in the Pan African Conference in 1900, Booker T. Washington stated "I beg to advise as many of our people as possible to do so (attend)." The Pan African Conference of 1900 was followed by other African congresses and the establishment of major organizations such as the UNIA/African Communities League (ACL) under Marcus Garvey, and the All African Peoples Conferences (AAPC) under Kwame Nkrumah. Both the UNIA and AAPC were models to establish the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in May 1963, under the influence of Emperor Haile Selassie. The OAU became the African Union (AU) in 2001 and is seen as the most important Pan African organization to unify African people in the world. The PAM Summit in Jamaica is a continuation of the Pan African Movement, now concentrating on unifying the Diaspora as part of the 21st century vision for an African system of government, based in Africa. "Additionally, the Pre-Summit recommended actions supporting: (1) African Liberation Month in May 2007 to be a month of decisive actions across the Diaspora and Africa to promote African people's interests, especially African issues affecting Sudan, Zimbabwe, New Orleans, Haiti and Columbia; (2) developing a Marshall Plan for Africans consisting of investments opportunities, trade, African development projects and reparations; and (3) most importantly building an African Diaspora Union (ASU) as part of the African Union 6th Region, and as proclaimed and promoted by great Pan Africanists like Marcus Garvey, Kwame Nkrumah and John H. Clarke. "So far, participants for the Pan Afrikan Movement Summit in Jamaica are confirmed from Central America, Europe, South America and North America. Some of the key conveners and participants will be Esteemed Elder Statesman Ambassador Dudley Thompson, 1945 Pan African Congress participant and former attorney for President Jomo Kenyatta of Kenya; Elombe Brath, Veteran Pan African Activist; Nana Yaa Farika, Diaspora Delegate to the 6th Pan African Congress; Dr. Leonard Jeffries, Vice President of ASCAC; Elder Mama Sybil W. Clarke, Wife of Late Dr. John H. Clarke; Prof. James Small, CEO of the OAAU; Dr. Tony Martin, Scholar Activist; Haile Gerima, Film Producer; Dr. Adelaide Sanford, former Vice Chancellor NY State; and Willie Mukasa Ricks, former SNCC & AAPRP leader. "The theme of the Summit in Jamaica is Political Determination – for Cultural and Economic Rebirth. The Summit will consist of keynote addresses from leaders of Africa and the African Diaspora; strategy sessions with veterans of the Pan African movement; major workshops on politics, economics and cultural empowerment; Pilgrimages to the Maroons' sacred spaces, Queen Mother Nanny, Marcus Garvey and Bob Marley. Also, there will be excursions to enjoy the beauty of Jamaica's African people, its sun and our African way of life." ~ The second summit was the Panafstrag Roundtable, May '07 – Pan-African Global Roundtable on Durban Plus 5 in Addis Ababa (19-22 April, 2007) and Accra, (10-11 May, 2007). The Durban Plus 5 conference should have been held by 2006 in the way that similar UN Conferences have five-yearly follow-ups to check progress and address issues arising but it will not be held until 2009 due to the diversion and waste of resources and lives occurring from the illegal invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan. - We, participants in the Pan African Global Roundtables in Addis Ababa and Accra, that discussed the "Declaration and Programme of Action of the World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance" held in Durban in 2001, after days of deliberations agreed as understated. BACKGROUND AND OBSERVATIONS (1) In her foreword to the Declaration and Programme of Action by the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination Xenophobia and Related Intolerance held from 31 August to 8 September 2001 in Durban, South Africa, Mrs. Mary Robinson, the former High Commissioner of the United Nations Commission for Human Rights now the UN Human Rights Council, wrote that the Declaration with the programme of Action is a roadmap that indicates the steps to be taken to put an end to racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance and to prevent future occurrence. She went on to say that if pursued with energy and goodwill by all state-actors, the UN National institutions, inter-governmental organisations and non-governmental organisations this anti-discrimination agenda can bring hope and changes to the lives of millions of human beings in the world who are victims of racial discrimination and intolerance. (2) Since 2001, there appears to be shortage of energy and scarcity of goodwill on the part of the actors especially the states, the intergovernmental organisations and national institutions. (3) Before 2001, Africans and Peoples of African Diaspora have through a Reparation Conference in 1990 in Lagos, followed the then OAU Reparations Conference in 1993 held in Abuja-Nigeria, agreed on the Abuja Declaration which caused the OAU to establish an OAU Commission on Reparations. The Commission was short lived. (4) With the transformation of OAU into African Union (AU), a window of opportunity was reopened when AU created six regions with 5 in continental Africa while the 6th Region brings together the Diaspora global Africans. This long awaited initiative has created a sense of cultural pride and homeland sentiments among the global Africans. (5) 0ne of the priority areas for the strengthening this renewed close relationship between the AU and the Diaspora is Reparations and double citizenship. The result is the visit of Professor Ali Mazrui, a key member of the Commission, to the AU Commission Chairman in Addis Ababa in April 2006. (6) In addition to the above, many Africans within the continent and the Diaspora left Durban in 2001 with a sense of loss in that some issues of direct concern and directly related to their own historic and contemporary experiences were subsumed under wider global crises and politics. (7) Many were waiting for the usual United Nations Review Conference which is normally done after the first 5-years to air these issues. As at now, it has been confirmed that the Review Conference will take place on or before 2009. The preparatory committee meetings have started with the first taking place in Geneva in January, 2007. (8) In preparation for the above, the Global African Civil Society Organisations have decided to take the initiative and organise a PANAFRICAN GLOBAL ROUNDTABLE in ADDIS ABABA and ACCRA respectively on the dates mentioned above. The meetings provided mark analyses that appraised our collective concerns in health, human rights and governance, education, technology, economic development and other issues. (9) It must be remembered that Durban provided a platform for discussing and agreeing with the rest of the world on key issues of importance to global Africans from Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania, North, Central, and South America. It is the first time, the citizens of the world through their voices in Durban collectively accepted that slave trade, slavery and the various atrocities committed during that period were "crimes against humanity". METHODOLOGY a) The report of the Roundtables on Global Africa agenda on Durban Declaration and Programme of Action are sent to the Forum of NGOs of the 41st session of ACHPA b) Submission by the Forum to the African Commission for Human and Peoples Rights, then to the Council of Ministers and the Summit. c) Submission of the Report to the OHCHRC Prep Comms. for Review of the WCAR and Programme of Action on or before 2009. JUSTIFICATIONS Having said the above and 5 years after, history now begs some questions of us i.e., have governments concerned shown any signs of commitment since Durban to: a) Eradicate institutional racism, discrimination and xenophobia. b) Compensate the Global African for slavery and colonialism period. c) The total abolition of any form of slavery and neo-colonialism d) To strengthen the Africa Union-Diaspora synergy and initiative for implementing the programme of Action of the World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discriminations, Xenophobia and related Intolerances e) To reactivate and transform the OAU Commission on Reparation into AU Commission in order to follow-up on the 1993 Abuja Declaration on Reparation and Repatriation THE OBJECTIVES The objectives of the Roundtable are: a) Review issues related to the 2001 Durban WCAR Programme of Action and the slow pace of activation of the Programme of Action. b) Agree on a Global African Declaration and Action Plan after appraising the follow-up strategies, actions and activities employed by Global African CSOs since 2001. c) Create a common platform for renewed bonding between Global Africans to reaffirm their commitment to ensure the implementation of the key areas of Programme of Action through the Global African Action Plan. d) Strengthen the collaboration between the Global African CSOs, the AU-ECOSOCC, ACPHR and the UN Human Rights Council. e) Re-energise the Global African Movement for Forgiveness, Reconciliation and Reparations for all forms of slavery by past and present actors from the West and Arab land, and for colonialism. f) Sensitise all Africans to the dangers of xenophobia and related intolerances to free movement of persons in Africa. g) Strengthen the African Union-Diaspora initiative for implementing the Programme of Action of the UN Convention on Racism and other issues. h) Reactivate and transform the OAU Commission on Reparation into AU Commission in order to follow-up on the 1993 Abuja Declaration on Reparations. RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE ROUNDTABLE WCAR / Programme of Action 1) That Global Africans should work towards focusing the deliberations of the Review Conference of the "Declaration and Programme of Action of the World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerances" on discriminations suffered by and perpetuated against people of Africa decent, indigenous peoples and minorities. 2) Global Africans need to urgently organise preparatory meetings in different African regions to properly articulate African positions that will produce a global African position before the review conference in 2009. 3) We have to work toward converting the Declaration and Programme of Action of the Durban conference into a legally binding convention within the nearest possible time. 4) We urge all African governments to urgently establish national research committees on racism, racial discriminations, xenophobia and related intolerance as provided in the Declaration and Programme of Action. The national committees would work towards providing afrocentric solutions to the problems based on studies and consultations. Slavery (Kidnapping), Colonialism, Reparation and Repatriation 1) We enjoin African countries to issue citizenship to any person of African descent that expresses interest in acquiring such citizenship with minimal restriction. 2) The black slavery in Arab lands must end before we embark on the "United States of Africa" project. 3) We urge Blacks in Africa to explore the chances of opening dialogue with blacks in Diaspora in Arab world 4) We denounce and demand the repudiation of the WTO's "compassionate slavery" doctrine and resist the implementation of this doctrine in any way. 5) We restate that all black peoples in Africa are indigenous peoples Xenophobia and Free Movement of People 1) We urge the African Union to adopt the "ECOWAS model of free movement of people and goods" within the continent, to reduce the negative impact of existing artificial boundaries in Africa. 2) We urge African governments and other stakeholders to encourage the development and use of community orientated education programmes that could be disseminated through faith based organisations and the media, to continuously educate Africans on their common history, struggle and aspirations. 3) Africa needs to establish structures that would encourage direct Africa direct investment in Africa and cross-border investments to promote cross-border economic transactions and cooperation. 4) We need a Global African mechanism for proper coordination of various global African movements against racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerances. |

Urban Decay Eyeshadow
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Reviews
These are highly pigmented and true colored. They go on so smoothly and last for a long time. They last even longer if you use an eyeshadow primer (something I cannot live without). I love how many colors they come in. Naturally these are a bit pricey, so I tend to invest in the shadow books that UD puts out. You get the most bang for your buck with those. — 2 years, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 4 of 4 people said helpful
My favorite eyeshadows!
I own the Book of Shadows II, the Naked palette, and several of the regular "sewer cover" style single eyeshadows like the ones pictured. While there are a few shades that I would consider duds, almost all of the eyeshadows from Urban Decay are AMAZING. The pigmentation is rich, the consistency is smooth and never chalky, the packaging is cool and edgy yet sturdy, it lasts all day, and while a bit...read more spendy, is worth every penny. While I'm not a fan of glittery shadows for everyday wear, Urban Decay makes some real glitter bombs (which is good or bad, depending on your preferences). They have a wide array of colors--an entire rainbow, really. You can find great everyday shadows that are perfect for the office (neutrals in both matte and shimmer), as well as over the top, going out clubbing shades! — 2 years, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 6 people said helpful
not a fan
i bought this eyeshadow in a light pink color and a black color. both of these eyshadows were PACKED with glitter. not shimmer, but like, chunky glitter. it was a total mess and transferred all over my face, the amount of fallout on these is ridiculous. and maybe i wouldnt have had so much fallout if they were more pigmented and i didnt need to pick up so much eyeshadow. please do not waste your time on these eyeshadows. — 2 years, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 6 people said helpful

It had to happen sooner or later. Paul Carr had to get something about the startup business right.
He's been saying for years that books and publishing was going to get sexy again-- and not just for wonks like us who write books and naturally care about the fortunes of the boutique industry.
If you'd asked me whether SOPA or books would drive more traffic our first week, I never would have guessed books in a million years.
Heads up on this new blog, PandoDaily. Sarah Lacy and friends write about publishing, ebooks, technology, and the internet. Good stuff.

Bus, tube or taxi, what's the most effective way to move around London?
Bus, tube or taxi, what's the most effective way to move around London?
That's going to depend on where you want to go and how fast you want to get there. All three will work, of course, but you would have to see where the various tube stations are to know if it will work for your destination. The tube or bus would be the least expensive modes of travel for sure.
I agree with snarky, it depends where you want to go. The tube is very efficient, but you will need to know which tube lines go to which places. Also, the tube can get very busy at certain times of the day, which should be avoided unless you have to travel during those times. The bus services are very good, but travelling this way can be quite time consuming. If you aren't in any rush, buses are also a good way of seeing some of the sights as you travel to your destination.
I intend to travel by means of every mode of transportation I can. I really want to try everything. I definitely will use the methods that are more cost effective as often as possible, however. I also want to be able to walk many place from wherever I end up staying. Walking is really the best way to get a good look at everything.

Last night - 9 pm. All the kids are asleep...except Jenny. Bill and I are in the kitchen talking, cleaning up and prepping for morning. The baby monitor is on and cranked up to hear any noise above breathing. Bill might have thought that I was listening for the baby.
Oh no.
Suddenly, we heard some slight noise. I turned to Bill and said, "Now! Quick! Upstairs and get her out of the baby's room!" He dashed up the steps and flipped on the hall light. There she stood like a deer in the headlights in the middle of the baby's room. Pete was blissfully unaware of the impending wake-up call that had just been thwarted.
Her hands were covering her face - half because of the blinding light, half with the classic toddler logic of If-I-Can't-See-You-Then-You-Can't-See-Me. This saved her hide because Bill finds it to be so absolutely adorable. The old softy.
Her silently led her out of the room and back to bed where her threatened her with a tremendous spanking if she got out of bed again. She stayed put and went to sleep.

Sure, it crashed in the end, but that's just a case of needing better steering (maintenance!). What's important is that passion led to a vision and a goal, which led to careful planning, convertible into attainable, measurable assignments (wheels, a large deck, etc.). It wasn't about the money, it was about the joy and success. Who wouldn't want to be a part of this?

As any food and beverage marketer will tell you, consumers will do almost anything for free product. That's not a bad thing. It's actually a compliment that people will go to such self-deprecating lengths to get their hands on your goods. (Klondike Bar anyone?)
The makers of the ambitiously-named Fantastic Delites set up a vending machine in Australia that challenged Aussies to perform all sorts of tasks in exchange for a free box of the product. (We're guessing it's some sort of cookie or cracker that pairs well with Vegemite.)
The tasks started out relatively simple and gradually progressed into absurdity. What would some people do for a box of the goodies? See for yourself in the video above.
MARKETING LESSON: Never underestimate the power of free product. But remember: With great power, comes great responsibility (and fun).

Hello Kitty glam lamp.
Fear of the dark? No longer, dear Kitty-girls!
Due -I think you already know this!- I'm sometimes like a child, my boyfriend thought it was a good idea to make me more confident with the dark givin' me a lamp which shines not only for the bulb but also for the blindin' beauty!
The first night this lamp came into my home, my guy had to wait I was aslept to turn it off 'cause I didn't want him to do it… and when I wake up in the middle of the night I love to switch it on just to see the cute Kitty-chan face that brings me dreams of ice-creams and strawberries, even if the light is so shiny that my lovin' half wakes up too!
Now, if in the morning I open my eyes lookin' at the left side of the bed the first thing I see is our tender Hello Kitty… is there a better way to start the day for a real HK maniac? =(^.^)=
P.S.: the jealousy of my guy is gettin' stronger everyday…

At this point, climate change is so politicized that it's difficult for the general public to sort out what scientists really know—and don't know—about it. Penned by Kerry Emanuel, an atmospheric sciences professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, this latest edition of What We Know About Climate Change is the most comprehensive, readable, BS-free rundown on the topic that you're likely to find. It's short enough to read in a day, apolitical enough to appeal to both your Fox-obsessed wingnut uncle and your dreadlocked freegan older sister in Brooklyn, and just detailed enough to provide a reload of fresh intellectual ammunition to help you engage others on the topic.

A Southwest pilot frustrated about the number of gay, overweight, and old flight attendants at Southwest decided to share his "experiences" with his fellow pilot, though as it turned out the mic was keyed and he was actually transmitting what he was saying to the whole frequency. Here's a video that includes some of the stuff he says (and the response from another pilot):
He was suspended without pay and had to undergo diversity training, though is now back on the job. Your thoughts? Was the punishment fair?
Whether we like it or not, pilots probably often have these types (by that I mean negative conversations you wouldn't want to know about) of conversations, be it about flight attendants, passengers, or how bad the company is. Obviously it's not professional, but it happens and it's not preventable. That being said, when someone is so dumb as to go off on a two minute tirade and have the whole thing available on public airwaves, they kind of have it coming for them, in my opinion…

So you think the issue is that he was being 'unprofessional' by accidentally saying this on the air?
What if he were ranting about the large number of black (pardon me, he probably would've said 'fu**ing *ss n***ers') flight attendants at his company?

Haha, what a douchebag. He definitely made his own bed and now he has to lay in it (or had to, given the hours of discipline he got). In a weird way, this puts a more genuine (if darker) human face on WN than we're used to seeing in its folksy, family-like corporate image. Maybe it's because management and morale are generally good that incidents exposing this kind of employee attitude seem to be rare.
I wonder if anyone listening to C9 on UA got to hear this transpire in real time.

If I were WN, I would have fired him, simply because his actions go against the whole brand image that Southwest has built; that their employees have good morale, etc., and this guy is complaining that he can't get laid…
I agree that these types of convos probably go on more than people realize, but this guy just takes it to a whole new level of stupid to broadcast over ATC airwaves ..
The only thing that could have been worse is if he keyed the cabin mic as well.

Can't really blame him though.
Look at the difference between American FAs and Asian FAs.
Because of labor unions, American FAs are lazy, fat, bitchy, unfeminine and old.
America is truly becoming the laughingstock of the world.

The language and attitude is upsetting to me, but had he been ranting about his own family, it wouldn't worry me.
However, in a crisis the captain and crew have to work together, quickly, and with mutual trust. Clearly, that's missing in at least one, if not both directions.
The attitude he displayed isn't correctable with sensitivity training (that will just teach him to keep his opinions to himself). This needs to be fixed by forcing him to find a new job in a different industry. His presence in the cockpit puts passengers at risk and that is unacceptable.

While I will not defend in any way what he said, what should concern readers most is his skill as a pilot in pre-flight planning and in the air. One bad apple shouldn't spoil the reputations of the others.

Mark said,
@Steve LOL, he didn't put anyone at risk. If those thoughts he had put people at risk, there would be virtually no pilots.
It's just words and one guy's opinion and had nothing to do with his skill and ability to fly a plane. It's not a big deal at all.

You can think what you want. If you publicly broadcast it, that's a "for cause" event in my mind – even if inadvertent.
In finance, if you were to have such a recitation over the hoot (the traders broadcast system on a trading floor), you might have time to pick up your coat on the way to the door…but that's it. 1985, it would have been a different story – but that's the way it is today.

On some planes it's real easy to get the mic stuck. I still remember a Cessna 172 rental pilot out in the practice area saying "if I turn any tighter the wings will bend" to his buddy, while still transmitting on the tower's frequency. He wasn't allowed to rent planes at our airport after that. (and the plane got checked of course)

I think it is a big deal and he should be terminated. No older/female/gay flight attendant or co-pilot is going to be able to effectively work with him after this.
He clearly has no regard for his co-workers, and now they won't have any regard or trust in him. Any flight of his is not one I would feel particularly safe on as there is unlikely to be any cohesion among the captain and crew.

Should Kat Von D Have Walked Off KTLA Good Day LA Set Over Jesse James TLC Clip?
July 28, 2011 No CommentsI'm sure Kat Von D is having very mixed feelings these days about her tendency to ink before thinking. The famous tattoo artist and star of TLC's LA Ink, got inked with a portrait of a pre-teen boyhood photo replica of then-fiance Jesse James, under her arm. A giddy Von D was gushing and could hardly contain her excitement as she presented Jesse James with her"gift to him" on camera as the TLC cameras rolled.
The Monster Garage star and West Coast Choppers owner had a look on his face that looked half flattered and half horrified. Jesse James's face was frozen with the oddest expression when he took a look at Kat Von D's baby Jesse tattoo as she nervously unveiled his immortalized boyhood image on her skin for him.
Fast forward to after the couples' breakup, and Kat Von D shows up at the KTLA television studios for an interview to promote the upcoming season of LA Ink. When she watched backstage as the Good Day LA morning anchors rolled a promo tape of Von D getting her Jesse James tattoo and showing James the now infamous body art, Kat Von D flipped and fled the studio without giving her obligatory interview.
Moments later, a very upset Kat Von D Tweeted, "Dear GoodDayLA, thanks for the waste of a perfectly good morning. Lack of compassion n respect for eachother never fails to dissapoint me."
But here's the weird part… according to the stunned Good Day LA co-hosts, it was TLC who provided Good Day LA with the offending LA Ink clip featuring Jesse James and that now infamous tattoo. So what gives?
I can say this much, as someone who has interviewed Kat Von D, from my own experience, the girl is all love and wouldn't harm a fly. She must be really hurting right now. Here is an updated Tweet she recently posted to her Twitter account, "My apologies if I've offended anyone this morning-For the record: I did not storm off – I politely left w notice when GDLA broke their word."
Back when I interviewed Kat Von D, she had expressed some serious regret about getting a tattoo portrait of her ex-husband on her upper thigh, complaining to me that she has to look at the damn thing "every time she pulls her pants down to pee." You would think she would have learned her lesson.
But I digress. I'm assuming Kat means the KTLA morning show had agreed not to mention Jesse James or anything of the like. But, why did TLC provide an LA Ink clip that would only incite the Good Day LA co-hosts to want to ask Kat about her Jesse James tattoo? Weird! Kat, take this up with your producers and network, not KTLA.
As soon as the Good Day LA co-hosts got wind of Von D's Tweet, they had a thing or two to say about the situation in a video clip below:

Key players shun amnesty talk
Charoen meet falters as guest list falls by half
- Published: 10/03/2013 at 11:43 PM
- Online news:
Almost half of the groups invited to Monday's talk on a possible amnesty for political offenders have pulled out after questioning the motives of the dialogue.
The chances of the talk yielding results look increasingly bleak following their withdrawal.
The talk, hosted by deputy House Speaker Charoen Chankomol, follows an unprecedented meeting between leaders of the red-shirt United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) and anti-Thaksin People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) on Feb 7 to discuss the issue of an amnesty.
Mr Charoen followed up by inviting more groups, including political parties, military representatives and people affected by street riots, to join the second round of meetings to forge a consensus on who should be granted an amnesty.
But critics have questioned Mr Charoen's intentions behind pushing for the dialogue, suspecting it is politically motivated.
Mr Charoen invited representatives from 11 groups, including the Pheu Thai Party, the Democrat Party, the Bhumjaithai Party, the armed forces, PAD, UDD and Pitak Siam. Also invited are Nicha Hiranburana Thuwatham, representing families of state officials killed on duty at political rallies; business operators affected by political violence; the defunct Truth for Reconciliation Commission; and the multi-colour group, led by Tul Sitthisomwong.
However, five of these groups - the Democrats, PAD, Pitak Siam, Ms Nicha and Dr Tul - have announced they would boycott the meeting. Bhumjaithai Party said Sunday it has yet to make a final decision on whether to join.
The Democrats announced on Saturday that they would not join the Charoen meet because they believe the move is part of a Pheu Thai plot to have deposed premier Thaksin Shinawatra included in the amnesty scheme.
PAD spokesman Parnthep Pourpongpan said he would not attend as the discussion failed to include all stakeholders. "The PAD will take part only if all political groups are present," he said.
Mr Parnthep disagreed with the submission of an amnesty bill by 42 Pheu Thai MPs, led by Worachai Hema, to House Speaker Somsak Kiatsuranont last week. He said the bill has a hidden agenda, which is to absolve Thaksin.
Thaksin was sentenced in absentia to two years in jail in 2008 by the Supreme Court after he was found guilty of abusing his authority in helping his former wife Khunying Potjaman na Pombejra buy plots of land on Ratchadapisek Road.
Anti-Thaksin multi-colour group leader Dr Tul said it is not an appropriate time to talk about an amnesty. His group wants to see the prosecution of wrongdoers, especially those who instigate violence in street protests, before starting talks about who should be pardoned.
"The amnesty bill will only interrupt the judicial process," he said Sunday.
Green Politics Group coordinator Suriyasai Katasila believes Monday's meeting will fail because it is driven by politicians with hidden agendas who have failed to gain the trust of the public.
However, Mr Charoen said political parties cannot be excluded from the amnesty process as their MPs are the people who are authorised to enact laws.
Participants in Monday's meeting will be asked to consider whether people who face criminal charges should be included among those entitled to an amnesty, he said.
Mr Charoen also aims to have participants discuss the contentious proposal to draft another amnesty bill, this time for protest leaders.
He said this would probably lead to a debate on the conditions of such an amnesty, for example, whether protest leaders facing criminal charges should be included in the bill.
He said he was aware that Pitak Siam and the Democrats would not send their representatives to the meeting, but the dialogue will continue as representatives from other groups will still be present.
Mr Charoen tried to distance his amnesty talks from both Mr Worachai and the Pheu Thai-led government. He insisted his attempt to mediate talks among all groups is strictly an initiative of House legislators.
"I have seen more than enough of the social division," he said. "I have no hidden agenda. I just want all sides to talk to each other."
Pheu Thai spokesman Prompong Nopparit said his party supports Mr Charoen's move and blamed the Democrat Party for "lacking sincerity" on the amnesty issue. Democrat leader Abhisit Vejjajiva earlier said he supported an amnesty for people who staged peaceful protests but were charged with violating the emergency decree.
Defence Minister Sukumpol Suwanatat said he had instructed army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha to send two representatives from the army to attend Monday's meeting.

Wherever you look these days, it seems labels that strive to send a message about our food are on the table.

As Hurricane Sandy continues its slow progress toward the East Coast, thoughts of voting aren't uppermost in most people's minds. Nevertheless, state and local officials are scrambling to accommodate early voters as best they can.
Depending on how the storm ultimately plays out, Sandy isn't expected to have much effect on the outcome of the presidential race. Most of the states in its path are not considered competitive.

Passion Pit's Michael Angelakos is a fussy sonic craftsman: A keyboardist and singer who started out working solo on his laptop, he now makes fizzily catchy electro-pop that orbits around monster hooks. He's not, in other words, the first musician you'd associate with a stripped-down performance behind NPR Music's Tiny Desk, where Technicolor production tends to give way to unfiltered voices and bare instrumental essentials.

The device works in any car with an installed child safety seat. The MyCue ™ Streamer easily installs in seconds to any car seat; and adjusts to changes in car seat direction (forward or backward facing.) No electronics at all no electronics of any kind and the device does not interfere with the car seat's operation.
The MyCue™ Streamer is unique because it is based on a proven aviation safety practice: Just as capable and competent pilots use checklists each time they fly so they never forget a critical step; capable, competent parents and caregivers should use the MyCue™ Streamer as their one-step checklist each time they drive with a child.

Small Pot: £4.00
Baby's Breath ranges from the small, low-growing alpine species, to the tall border perennials, to which the common name refers. The latter produce clouds of small white or pink flowers and are ideal for cutting.
There are almost 100 species, both annual and perennial, which grow mainly on stony or sandy alkaline soils in the eastern Mediterranean, through central Asia and into northwestern China.
All species do best on well-drained soil in full sun, especially if the soil is alkaline. Winter wet will not be tolerated.

By Kathryn Watson | Watchdog.org Virginia Bureau
ALEXANDRIA — Essex County officials won't be keeping any more secrets.
Not if a small band of fired-up residents can help it.
They've started essexcountysunshine.org.
Together, the half dozen or so contributors — led by publisher and retired Marine John Clickener — intend to raise the D-minus grade Sunshinereview.org gives the 11,000-person county government in regard to overall transparency.
"Our goal is to encourage and assist local government to be so open and so transparent that we put ourselves out of a job," Clickener told Watchdog.org Virginia Bureau in a phone interview Friday.
EssexSunshine.org, or ESO, contributors post links to open meetings laws, pour over government documents and write news and commentary pieces to ensure local arms of county government — from the board of supervisors to the school board — operate with the openness called for in the Virginia Constitution and Code of Virginia.
They're already making a difference.
Just this week, the county's board of supervisors and school board began giving more details about the topics and decisions coming out of closed meetings, beyond a number reference.
Clickener called it a "minor win."
He said the group is always looking for suggestions on ways to improve the site and to correct any errors.
"We're advocating for better government in the sense that we strongly feel that the more open and the more transparent they are in process, the better government's going to be, and the more engaged … we hope the public will become," he said.
Watson can be contacted at email@example.com.
