Advocate for Writers
Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance
Being a writer is a solitary pursuit. Yet as the only statewide organization devoted to supporting and promoting Maine writers, the MWPA does an outstanding job of forming a community around a group of artists notoriously difficult to corral. With writing retreats, workshops, literary awards, and fellowships, a membership to the MWPA is an invaluable network for an aspiring Maine writer to join. 207-228-8263. mainewriters.org
Music Radio Show
In Tune by Ten
In Tune by Ten on MPBN probably should have been rendered obsolete by Pandora, Spotify, and iTunes playlists. However, host Sara Willis outperforms any Pandora algorithm in the art of creating the perfect playlist. While online stations offer predictable suggestions, like R.E.M based on your interest in U2, Willis will teach you that, actually, Tom Jones and Vampire Weekend are a match made in heaven. Listen to MPBN at 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday and Sunday at 10 a.m. mpbn.net
Concert Selection
Bangor's Waterfront
Hipsters, metalheads, teenage girls, hip hop fans, aging rockers, and country music fans will all find themselves at the Darling's Waterfront Pavilion at some point this summer. It's a true feat on the part of the concert organizers to have recruited such a varied and attention-grabbing lineup of acts that includes Kei$ha, Sting, Phish, Miranda Lambert, Lil Wayne, Rob Zombie, Guster, and more. One Railroad St., Bangor. 207-358-9327. waterfrontconcerts.com
Your L.L. Bean Boyfriend
A typical post on the Tumblr Your L.L.Bean Boyfriend shows a scruffy model in a beige cable zip cardigan with a focused and sexy stare. The caption reads, "Let's go antiquing in Wiscasset this weekend," James said. "There's a great bed and breakfast I know we can stay in too." That's all it is — an image a day of a rugged and masculine L.L. Bean model and the suggestion of a Maine-specific romantic activity. And yet, through the juxtaposition of humor and beefcake Bean models, this Tumblr captures the romance of Maine as well as anything. yourllbeanboyfriend.com
Idea From 2012 That Should Happen Every Year
Concerts on the Eastern Promenade
When folk-rock band Mumford & Sons announced they would be playing in Portland, there was as much excitement over their music as their choice of venue. On August 4, 2012, the mega-popular English band, along with six other acts throughout the day, played to more than 15,000 fans on the Eastern Promenade for the best show of the summer. More important, however, the festival proved that this sloping park overlooking Casco Bay and less than a mile from the Old Port is among the most idyllic spots for a concert in the country.
Hidden Concert Venue
Stone Mountain Arts Center
Tucked away in the foothills of the White Mountains, the Stone Mountain Arts Center has become one of the state's premier spots to experience live music. While owner and singer-songwriter Carol Noonan manages to consistently lure such big-name acts as Mavis Staples, Martin Sexton, and Béla Fleck, the venue's charm lies in its architecture. A converted 200-year-old barn with a cathedral ceiling and exposed beams, Stone Mountain manages to be both grand and intimate. 695 Dugway Rd., Brownfield. 207-935-7292. stonemountainartscenter.com
Art Tour
Winslow Homer Studio
See where one of America's greatest artists got his inspiration. For the first summer ever, Winslow Homer's studio is open to the public. Stand where he painted many of his masterpieces, including Weatherbeaten and Cannon Rock, and admire the view that served as his muse. Tours are conducted by the Portland Museum of Art and are limited to four per week and only ten visitors at a time. You must reserve your spot in advance to see this historic landmark. $55 or $30 for PMA members. Vans depart from the Portland Museum of Art at 7 Congress Sq., Portland. 207-775-6148. portlandmuseumofart.org
Laugh Along
Saturday Night Live's Best/Worst Joke at Maine's Expense
Following Maine's vote to allow same-sex marriage, Saturday Night Live aired a skit featuring two gay lobstermen with accents so far off the mark that Mainers rightfully ridiculed it. A few weeks later SNL presented "Maine Justice," a small-claims courtroom show set in Bangor where everyone talks like Cajuns. Huh? Was it making fun of Maine? Was it a response to our response to the lackluster accents? No one (not even the characters in the skit) knew what was happening. But as soon as Jason Sudeikis, playing a Colonel Sanders-esque judge, started sentencing defendants to "a lighthouse crawlin' with gators" and referring to Maine as the home of "jazz, Mardi Gras, and Stephen King," we stopped trying to make sense of it. It's weird, confusing, maybe offensive, but funny. And that's all that matters.

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Robert Griffin III didn't offer many answers Sunday afternoon in his postgame meeting with reporters. A possibility or two, the most interesting being that maybe it's time he abandon the nice-guy persona and come down harder on his teammates after two mistake-filled games.
"If I've got to do a little bit more to clean up that sloppiness," he said, "then I'll do it."
The defense is porous, the running game is ineffective, and mistakes keep costing the Washington Redskins yards, touchdowns and games. But something perhaps more powerful is missing: the confident, dependable play of Griffin himself.
Two games into this season, Griffin hasn't been himself, and it's difficult to know when the fun-loving kid with the Midas touch and the astounding skills will return.
"They didn't have games like that last year," ESPN analyst Merril Hoge said at Lambeau Field as he watched the Redskins' 38-20 loss Sunday to the Green Bay Packers.
A season ago, Griffin rallied his team. A defense high on injuries and low on playmakers didn't cost the Redskins their season, and neither did a 3-6 start. Griffin's talent seemed to inspire a turnaround, and his attitude was infectious. He made few mistakes, and when he was on, he was magic.
Through two contests, both blowout losses that second-half comebacks have masked, Griffin's passes have been late and off-target. His runs, which are infrequent, have looked tentative. His authority and ability to pick his team up, no matter its problems, seem lost, although teammates say his mannerisms haven't changed.
"I'm not afraid to sit here and say, 'Put that on my shoulders,' " Griffin said. "I'll take that. We didn't start fast because of me."
That was Griffin trying to use words to overshadow the deeds of the previous six days. He wouldn't say much about what he can do to improve, and maybe it'll just take time. After knee surgery in January, Griffin missed offseason practice, was used carefully during training camp, and didn't play during the preseason. Even if his body has healed, his confidence could still be on the mend.
"It's not like: 'Hey, saddle up on RGIII and take us,' " said Larry McCarren, a former NFL player and the Packers' radio analyst. "It might be a while."
Hoge said he studied Griffin's performance in a season-opening, nationally televised loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He said Griffin's footwork was frenetic and shoddy, and Hoge said it was clear Griffin wasn't as polished as he was last year.
"He was hopping around, skipping around," Hoge said of the Philadelphia game. "There was nothing sound about him."
Against Green Bay, Griffin forced passes he rarely attempted last season. He missed open receivers, and on one play, by the time he saw Pierre Garcon streaking across the field, Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk closed in, swatting the ball away.
"Last year, they throw that, and the linebacker would be three or four yards away," Hoge said.
Part of that was because Griffin was at the center of an offense based on deception. Defenses had to wait, even a microsecond, to make certain Griffin wouldn't run, and by then an opening was there. Griffin didn't usually miss them.
Now, the threat of the young and speedy quarterback, a former sprinter at Baylor, taking off upfield seems absent. Griffin said the runs remain in the offensive game plan, but because the Eagles and Packers have built quick leads, the option and designed runs have been pushed away.
But other times, Griffin seems cautious. When the pocket collapsed last year, as it did frequently Sunday, Griffin would find running lanes, hitting them aggressively and piling up points and an excitement that defined last season as much as a season-ending, seven-game winning streak that led to the NFC East championship. In 2012, Griffin averaged 8 ½ rushes in games he started and finished. He has averaged about half that this season.
"I just don't know that we're going to see the dynamic runner we saw a year ago," Fox analyst Troy Aikman said during the game broadcast Sunday.
This season, when the interior offensive line is pushed backward, Griffin stays in the pocket and tries to throw over linemen. Already, he has had several passes batted down.
"I'm not just going to run just to show people that I'm back," Griffin said Sunday. "I think that's stupid."
And so he passes, 40 times on Sunday and 49 the previous Monday, and too often his attempts are off target. Even the easy throws look more difficult, such as a fourth-quarter touchdown pass delivered behind tight end Jordan Reed. Another pass on third down came in too high for Garcon, and on fourth down, Joshua Morgan couldn't haul in an on-target pass, tipping it into the hands of Green Bay defender Mike Neal. That was Griffin's second interception; he didn't throw his second pick until his sixth game in 2012.
"It's way too early to say he's not going to be the same," McCarren said of Griffin. "Ain't nobody would've been the same right now, that close to major surgery, I don't think."
Hoge said he noticed progress in Griffin's game Sunday: improved footwork and confident passes, particularly in the second half when the Packers defense backed off. Hoge said further improvement should come in time — but only if Griffin continues learning and working on small things, such as handoffs and tosses to rushers.
While Washington waits, McCarren said the team must find a way to reduce pressure on Griffin, who has gotten little help from his team — whether receivers' drops, a running game that lacks intimidation, or a defense that allowed 580 total yards on Sunday.
"I don't point the finger at anybody else," Griffin said. "Whatever goes on on that field, I'm responsible for that."
More words, and so the Redskins and their fans wait to see if these two weeks are temporary setbacks — things they'll laugh about later; more experiences that will be seen as moments that fortified Washington for another dramatic turnaround.
"Sometimes in your second year, you get a wake-up call," Hoge said. "You go, 'Oh, snap, maybe I forgot I need to make sure I'm sound everywhere in this league at all times.' Just your God-given ability isn't good enough."

Packing for holidays has always been a challenge, but Dermalogica has all your skin care needs covered from take off until you're back home again.
If you're flying long-haul, there is no reason why you can't cleanse your face thoroughly at your seat. Dermalogica's UltraCalming Cleanser comes in a handy 50ml travel size (£11.30) and as it can be used without water, so is ideal for use when travelling. Just massage into the skin and then remove with tissue before applying your hydrating products.
The low humidity on a plane causes essential moisture to be sapped from the skin. Guard against dehydration with Skin Hydrating Booster (£49.80) which contains hyaluronic acid which holds 1,000 times its own weight in water, ensuring that your skin remains supple and hydrated and a silicone-based moisturising gel such as Barrier Repair (£34.50) which will form a barrier against moisture loss.
Whether in-flight or after a day admiring the sights, skin is parched. For instant rejeuvenation, apply MultiVitamin Power Concentrate (£40.50), with its cocktail of vitamins, including A,C and E and the very healing panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) and essential fatty acids. Just one application will see skin looking soft, supple and radiating good health.
Hot temperatures and air conditioning cause your skin to dry out as moisture moves through osmosis from the area of greatest concentration to the lowest. A spritz toner like Dermalogica's Multi-Active Toner (£25.60) can transform this and it can be used over make up too. Look for humectants such as glycerol and honey which will bind vital water to the skin for a fresh face all day long. Follow this with a moisturiser to seal in moisture and act as a barrier to keep pollutants out. Look for age-fighting ingredients such as anti-oxidants which fight free radical damage and skin strengthening and firming ingredients including magnesium ascorbyl phosphate which help improve the appearance of skin.
All Dermalogica products take into account an understanding of modern skin stress and active, busy lifestyles. The professionally recommended products do not involve complicated and outdated rituals.
Dermalogica products are only available on the recommendation of a qualified skin care therapist. For stockist details, please call 0800 591818 or visit www.dermalogica.com/uk

Just a Thread to remind Phenom and Evo (If they read this) that there are still a great deal of fake times on the Leaderboards... these Boards include the following: Time Attack Leaderboards, Hardcore Festival Event Leaderboards, Online 3 Lap Public / Private Leaderboards and Online 2 Lap Public / Private Leaderboards... just to clarify there are more glitched times than the times recorded as 0:00.00 or 0:00.01, if Evo / Phenom need any help identifying these fake times (Which is a possibility) I and I am sure the community would be more than happy to post these times on the Forums under this Thread or via PM with precise details of the track name, the track time, the players PSN name and the players choice of Vehicle.
It has gotten to the point now that I don't even care if you are worried that asking for the communities help will give you a worse reputation than you already have, I would happily and would feel proud to help you out and see the removal of these times be put into action as they do effect users a lot more than you may think ... I have seen the removal of times done before on this game and previous games in the Series such as Arctic Edge, so I know it's not a hard process... also it seems the cause of fake times has been put to an end on certain Leaderboards (Many thanks) but there is still a need for a clean up crew. Please just consider a reply and I hope you respect the support that has been offered, it would be a great contribution to the game for those of us who play competitively
Many thanks again... P.S - To any user that wants to use this Thread as an attack on Evo, please save your fingers and thoughts for another Thread, it is not wanted or needed here... what is needed is extra support to get Phenom and Evo's attention, linking this Thread to Phenom via PM or on PSN, youtube, twitter anything would be great! Thanks guys
Solved! Go to Solution.

I would be happy to help identifying these glitched times
And yes, a good thread, would be nice if the 3rd best time on some track wouldn't be the 160th best time according to your leaderboards because some people finished a 3 lap race doing only 2 laps etc. =)
on 20-08-2011 08:03 PM
Good reminder (kudos). I can vouch for this too

I appreciate the support from the users of this site for this Thread!
Now if only Phenom would make an appearance, even just to clarify that this Thread has been read and understood would be a great help to see where we stand
24-08-2011 12:27 AM - edited 24-08-2011 12:29 AM
Well I was told a while back that they are 'doing everything they can' to fix the leaderboards. But they want to find out what is causing the glitches before they remove any times. I was told this... maybe 2 months ago or more.
This is exactly what I was told over twitter by an employee on 26th May "The time will be removed as part of next weeks scheduled leaderboard update."
"The time" is referring to my glitched time on Double-Decker buggy time where I got something like 46 seconds, #2 in the overall leaderboard!
The update never came that week, the time is still to this day as far as I am aware still on the leaderboard.
This is from the same person over twitter confirming a glitch "There is a glitch we're trying to resolve before removing the times." Said on 10th July.
They apparently cannot or will not remove times until this glitch has been resolved, and seeing as though no times have been removed as of yet that I am aware of, I would guess the glitch has not been fixed. Until then I guess all we can do it wait.

I suppose you missed it when they cleared about 100 glitched times from the top of nearly every leaderboard recently? A lot of top times went from being in the 100s position to being in the top 20 or so.

The Newport Naval Shipyard in Newport, is just one of many Asbestos exposure sites in Newport, RI. Asbestos, even in small amounts, is a known cause of Malignant Mesothelioma, a deadly lung cancer.
While major asbestos companies knew otherwise, they presented asbestos to the public as a safe and useful product for use in engineering projects at Newport Naval Shipyard. Consequently, in Newport, asbestos has been used in thousands of products and in numerous workplaces.
The damage to the lungs caused by asbestos fibers is not apparent at first, but asbestos exposure can lead to serious, debilitating, and often fatal diseases. These include mesothelioma lung cancer, asbestos cancer, and asbestosis. Usually, a period of 10 to 40 years or more passes after exposure at Newport Naval Shipyard or any other asbestos worksite in RI before the asbestos victim exhibits the first asbestos disease symptoms. Remember, in any workplace in Newport, there is no "safe" level of asbestos exposure. If you think you have been exposed to asbestos at Newport Naval Shipyard, you should immediately speak with a doctor and a mesothelioma lawyer.
Have you worked at or lived around Newport Naval Shipyard? If so, it is possible that you were exposed to Asbestos and at risk for contracting malignant Mesothelioma cancer, asbestosis, or another asbestos-related disease. Exposure to even a small amount of asbestos fibers is a serious matter and may be grounds for an asbestos lawsuit. If you think you might have been exposed to asbestos at Newport Naval Shipyard in Newport, Rhode Island, please complete the Free Asbestos Exposure Consultation Form below, so that Attorney Shepard can review your case and contact you.
A guide to understanding malignant mesothelioma cancer, its causes, treatments, and your legal options.

Sprucing up for spring
26 May 2006
G'day and welcome to another week in the Birds Department! That time of year is upon us again, when the preparations for spring begin. All of our enclosures are undergoing a face lift. The enclosures are getting tidied up, new plants put in and new features added.
Preparations are being made for our breeding birds. Two such couples are Rocky and Stomp and Beepa and Babinda. These guys are all being slowly introduced to each other in the hope that by the time breeding season comes around they will all be well acquainted. If we don't let them get to know one another there is every change that they may not get along, and this could cause a few dramas for our keeping team. To help with these preparations we have adjusted their diets by giving them a few extra enrichment items and we are constantly monitoring their moods to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. So hopefully in a few months we may have some little ones to add to our ever-expanding bird team. Until next week, birds RULE!

What makes stock values go up or down? Well, it depends on what driving factors are motivating stock valuations. Most people think stock fluctuations have to do with how much profit the company is making, their price to earnings ratio, or where people think the company is going. This is all wrong. The only thing that gives a stock value is the fact that, at any given moment, there are more people with more dollars willing to buy the stock versus the number of people and their dollars who want to sell it. That's it! All indicators are trying to predict that ratio.
From a historical prospective, the long-term trend for stocks has been upward. So in fact this would indicate that, over the last 60 years more people have steadily brought more money to the stock market year after year. Ok, but past stock performance does not indicate future performance. This is taught on the first day in high school finance class.
Why have stocks steadily increased? What differentiates today with the last 60 years? The answer is; there was steady population growth in developed nations. This produced a steadily increasing supply of money, M3, from more and more people activating fractional reserve banking. There is a very strong relationship between M3 and the overall "net worth" of the stock market. Because stocks need a transaction to have worth, the available funds, and the number of potential buyers for that transaction, essentially determines the potential worth of those stocks, everything else the same.
The developed countries; all of Europe, U.S., Japan, Russia, Canada, and Australia will all have stagnant or shrinking populations over the next 30 years. So, there is not a whole lot of room for the value of stocks to increase because their combined M3 will not quadruple or quintuple like it has over the last 60 years. Note; immigrants don't really count for the population growth interested here because they generally come from undeveloped nations and don't tend to buy stocks. At least not initially, they usually work at Wendy's or Wal-Mart. So, some of these countries show small population growth but it is from bringing in more people from undeveloped nations into their country.
Because the pertinent population of the developed nations has just about peaked, stocks have just about peaked since developed nations' M3 has just about peaked. Unless people decide to shift their basket of goods towards stocks and away from food to compensate for the declining potential demand, stocks will go down over the next 30 years. Or maybe India will have massive development in their country and will maintain the value of U.S. stocks. But why would India help sustain some other countries ponzi scheme? Wouldn't they want to start their own, with their own stock start ups, like Facebook did, and take everyone's money and run?
No significant developed nation is authentically (without immigration) replacing their own population (2.1 children per woman).

The Amernet String Quartet
Tuesday, March 19 at 8:15 in the Hockett Family Recital Hall
Joseph Haydn: Quartet in Fminor, op. 20, no. 5
Dana Wilson: Habits of the Heart
Ernest Chausson "Concert" for violin, piano, and string quartet, with Nicholas DiEugenio, violin and Mimi Solomon, pian
Lauded for their "intelligence" and "immensely satisfying" playing by the New York Times, the Amernet String Quartet has garnered worldwide praise and recognition as one of today's exceptional string quartets. Ensemble-in-Residence at Florida International University since 2004, the group was formed in 1991, while its founding members were students at the Juilliard School. Amernet rose to international attention after their first season, winning the Gold Medal at the Tokyo International Music Competition in 1992. In 1995, the group was the First Prize winner of the prestigious Banff International String Quartet Competition.
Their busy performance schedule has taken the group across the United States, as well as to Japan, Korea, Canada, Belgium, France, Germany, Romania, Switzerland, and Mexico. Prior to their appointment at Florida International University, the Amernet was, from 2000-2004, Corbett String Quartet in Residence at Northern Kentucky University, where they directed the Patricia A. Corbett String Program. From 1996-2000, the ensemble held a residency at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, where they taught chamber music. Additionally, from 2004-2005 they served as the Ernst Stiefel Quartet-in-Residence at the Caramoor Center for the Arts. Among the Amernet's engagements have been appearances at Ravinia, Lincoln Center, the Mostly Mozart Festival, the Harvard Musical Association, and at major festivals around the world, including San Miguel de Allende, Great Lakes, Morelia, and Bowdoin.

Coleman 8D squarepack-away is oké!
By guide in cave
from Belgium
Comments about Coleman 8D Square Pack-Away Lantern with Remote Control:
Hello, Here I am again, the Belgium cave-guide. I bought an electric Colemanlamp. On the manual was written: this lamp burns 12 hours on one set Alkaline batteries. Because there are 8 batteries in that lamp, I was so clever to use rechargeable batteries. Now the lamp burned only about 3 hours and then in one minute he went rather suddenly out. I did not dare to go with a group tourists with such a lamp in the caves here. So I was rather unhappy with that lamp! Then I discovered very cheap alkaline batteries. Now the lamp burns even 15 hours with one set! And more. But after 15 hours you can see that the light slowly reduces. This alkaline batteries cost more, but only 26 Eurocents per hour. If you use a gasolinelamp, it will be the same price. Can everybody understand how happy I am?

Good Camp Lantern
By Goat Doc
from OKC, OK
About Me Military/Law Enforcement
See all my reviews
We bought one of these for our Scout troop after replacing our 10th propane lantern globe of the year (Scouts can be hard on equipment...). We now own 6 of these in our troop. The lantern packs nicely by collaping into its base. This makes it very rugged for storage and transport, as well as compact. Its very nice being able to simply turn on a light at night instead of dragging out a lantern and propane and getting it assembled and lit. These lanterns have survived hundreds of miles of being bounced and jolted around in the back of a troop trailer. The light output is very good. It isn't as bright as a propane lantern, but it is more than adequate for setting up camp in the dark and for lighting the camp kitchen. The battery life has been surprising - we get 5 to 6 campouts out of a set of alkaline batteries! We have been quite pleased with these lanterns.
No 12 hours!

About Me Professional/Guide
I used rechargeable batteries 2300mAh. The lamp gives a beautifull light, but not 12 hours, only 2,5 hours!!! With a smiling face I sweared soundles, but very heavy , while tourists were listening to my explanation in the cave. (I am guide). I swear again now.
This a phantastic lamp,
By Jacques (a guide)
The lamp survived the transport to Belgium well! The light is bright like the gasolinelamp from Coleman (I testet it with a light meter). With a Velcrom ribbon around the lamp, I fixed the lamp when it was folded together. I use the lamp as a guide in the caves of Maastricht (Netherlands).

text: The girl in cobalt blue was completely unexpected—seeing her was like finding a Picasso at a swap meet. She wore high blue-suede boots and a short matching trench coat, cinched tight around her narrow waist. I saw that she was Indian as she brushed past the little knot of drunks trading drinking secrets on that Duluth corner. They too, seemed startled by her beauty and tried vainly to get her attention. She responded with a laugh: "Oh, go away, you old motherfuckers."

Sure, everyone knows that Thanksgiving is this week. But fans of The Good Wife have another reason to be thankful aside from the requisite turkey and stuffing coming to a dinner table near you.

Already in the middle of an acclaimed, high-octane season, the 100th episode includes the return of several fan-favorite guest stars, a suspenseful (and very personal!) legal case, some juicy new...read more
We stand here today to pay our respects to the former TV coupling known as "Willicia." After four years of riveting will-they-or-won't-they tension on The Good Wife, any possibility of a romantic future for Alicia (Julianna Margulies) and Will (Josh Charles) faded — at least for the foreseeable future — the minute he found out she was planning to leave the firm with Cary (Matt Czuchry) and take all of their top clients with her. But don't worry, fans! Chicago's 16th most eligible bachelor did not walk away from that stinging betrayal empty-handed. These days, Will is sporting a...read more

Directed by John Krasinski and based on David Foster Wallace's best-selling book, this provocative and hilarious film explores sex and relationships. Co-starring Will Arnett.
Tom Reilly (Zach Braff) and his wife Sofia (Amanda Peet) are in for some major changes now that they have a newborn. As a lawyer, Sofia has always provided a comfortable living while Tom has contributed love, support and the occasional paycheck. When Sofia decides to be a stay-at-home mom all that changes. Tom moves the family to Ohio to work for his father-in-law (Charles Grodin) as an "Assistant Associate Creative" for Sunburst Communications. His boss Chip (Jason Bateman) happens to still carry a torch for Sofia from their high school days. Each time Tom gains some ground at the firm, Chip wheels in and steals his thunder. Dirty tricks and sabotage abound creating an atmosphere of fierce paranoia that eventually threatens Tom and Sofia's relationship. Chip will stop at nothing to see Tom defeated while no one but Tom can see Chip for the evil genius he is. Through it all Tom's esteem is depleted, his manhood challenged (by a surprisingly large adversary) and he's watching his family slip away.
Four adopted brothers come together to bury the woman who raised them. At the funeral, the brothers discover that their mother was murdered, and they look to seek revenge.

Can't they all just get along? Perish the thought.
Few spectacles are more exciting and satisfying than watching a great series reinvent itself with bold strokes and high drama. In its five seasons, CBS's The Good Wife has never played it safe in boardroom, courtroom or bedroom — but nothing could have prepared us for just how explosively entertaining the war within Lockhart/Gardner was going to be.
Is Lockhart/Gardner big enough for two Carys?
They may share the same name, but there was no confusing Cary Agos (Matt Czuchry) with Lockhart/Gardner fourth year Carey Zepps in the season premiere of The Good Wife. In his first appearance on the show, Carey-with-an-e not only gave Alicia (Julianna Margulies) a hard time about her history with Will, but also almost (accidentally) blew Florrick, Agos & Associates' cover with David Lee.

The Navarre High School weightlifting team placed second in a three-team meet March 6 with Fort Walton Beach and Choctawhatchee at Fort Walton Beach. (PHOTO: Marvin Darby was one of four weight-division winners for the Raiders).
The Vikings demonstrated why they may be one of the favorites in the upcoming state meet by scoring 50 points. Navarre scored 34 points and Choctaw had 27. Five points were awarded for first place in a weight-division, three for second, two for third and one for fourth.
The Raiders were led with first-place finishes by T.J. Woodberry, Marvin Darby, Jay Warren and Nick Benton.
The Raiders did not place in the 119-pound weight division and were not represented in the 129-pound class. Woodberry won the 139-pound division. His 245-pound bench press was the best lift in his weight class. He just missed a clean-and-jerk of 235 pounds and had to settle for a successful lift of 225 pounds, giving him a 470-pound total.
In the 154-pound weight class, James McCloskey placed fourth as he benched 220 pounds and had a 185-pound clean-and-jerk for a 405-pound combined lift.
In the 169-pound division, Kody Kelley also placed fourth. His 275-pound bench press combined with a 225-pound clean-and-jerk gave him a 500-pound total.
Benton scored the second Raider weight-class win in the 183-pound weight division. He benched 290 pounds and had a 310-pound clean-and-jerk. His 600-pound total tied him with a Fort Walton Beach competitor. However, Benton weighed four pounds less than his opponent and was awarded first place. Mason Mikul placed fourth in the same division. His 255-pound bench press and 245-pound clean-and-jerk gave him a 500-pound combined lift.
Warren and Dre Taylor continued their winning one-two combination in the 199-pound division. Warren had a 325-pound bench press to go with his 280-pound clean-and-jerk, giving him a winning 605-pound total. Taylor benched 305 pounds and had a 265-pound clean-and-jerk. His total of 570 pounds won second place in the division.
In the 219-pound weight class, Colton Mapoles finished in third place. He had a 275-pound bench press and equaled that amount in his last clean-and-jerk attempt, for a 550-pound total.
In the 238-pound division, the other one-two combination of Darby and Mitch Posey continued its domination in the weight class. Darby's 315-pound bench press and 300-pound clean-and-jerk gave him a 615-pound winning total. Posey placed second with a 305-pound bench press and a 265-pound clean-and-jerk.
Devin Colonel placed third in the heavyweight division. He benched 260 pounds and had a 280-pound clean-and-jerk, for a 540-pound total.
The next meet will be the district championship March 18 at Navarre.

MemberI don't get it...
Lately, there must be a thread on "My new back design of cards" everyday; and "coincidentally" almost every design has the same color as Jerry's, if not, a pattern similar to Wynn.
Any reason for this "movement" of designing cards??? - #4

Memberhave to agree with cklam, almost every card design people are making are based off wynns or jerrys (large rectangle with a solid color of red, blue, black, and some cream color, with a simple design in white).
sure its easier to design a card like so, but its starting to get a tad repetitive... like butter... and bicycle backs...there are over 211 threads at E with the word "butter". and they arent talking about the food butter. - #5

Comments about KitchenAid Superba Series EQ Stainless Steel Built-In Dishwasher:
We love this washer! Better than we expected. We almost went with the Bosch and then decided at the last minute to switch so we wouldn't have to manually clean out the disposal which we have heard causes a smell after many years. I am glad we changed - more settings, big capacity and cleans really well!!!

text: Agent: Favre Still RetiredMINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Heard this one before? Brett Favre remains retired, as far as his agent is concerned. Favre's longtime representative Bus Cook said Friday afternoon in an interview with The Associated Press that he is unaware of any pending change in Favre's plans. Cook said he speaks with his friend every day, but claimed the chats aren't about football. "He's my close friend," Cook said by phone from Hattiesburg, Miss. "He lives right up the road." The Vikings have expressed interest in the record-setting 39-year-old quarterback, whose waffling has become an annual summer story around the NFL. But Minnesota coach Brad Childress said at a community service event Friday he isn't thinking about Favre, when asked if he had a deadline in mind for Favre to make a decision about his status. "I'm thinking about the next four OTAs next week," Childress said, referring to optional offseason practices teams are allowed in May and June. Childress took part with players, coaches, staff and executives in a playground construction project at an elementary school in the Minneapolis area. Cook, however, acknowledged the seemingly endless possibility that Favre -- who said in February he was done for good this time -- will seek a spot in the NFL again. "We've all changed our minds, I guess," Cook said. Without prompting, Cook then began touting Favre's ability, as if he were trying to sell the Vikings on a contract. He said: "I would think they would pull out all the stops if they want to get the guy. I think Brett Favre just brings a whole new ballgame to any ballclub. That's no reflection on the guys that are on their team at quarterback right now, but Brett's in a different league than most." Cook said he hasn't been in contact with the Vikings. "I don't know what Minnesota will or won't do. I don't know what he will or won't do," Cook said. At issue, according to recent unsubstantiated reports, is the condition of Favre's injured right arm. His shoulder hurt last year because of a partially torn biceps while playing for the New York Jets, and Favre insinuated at his latest retirement news conference that was his reason for leaving the game after 18 seasons. Cook declined Friday to comment on Favre's condition, citing client confidentiality. He didn't answer a question about whether Favre was mulling, or has already had, surgery. "Right now there's nothing to talk about," Cook said. "As far as I know, Brett's very content to be where he's at, and that's in Hattiesburg." (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press.

The National Lumber and Building Material Dealers Association (NLBMDA) recently released its national legislative and regulatory policy agenda.
In it, NLBMDA calls on Congress to encourage financial institutions to renew lending activity that will spur new-home construction, while also encouraging the need to review federal rules and regulations that stifle job creation.
Joe Collings, NLBMDA chairman and CEO of Ferguson Lumber in Rockville, Ind., is among those calling for action. "With the 112th Congress already focused on reviewing and possibly eliminating burdensome regulations, NLBMDA stands ready to work with policymakers to roll back the red tape and costly mandates that have hampered our economic recovery," he said.
With the dawn of a new Congress, the NLBMDA hopes the 112th Congress proves much friendlier to small business than the 111th Congress.
NLBMDA's 2011 National Policy Agenda — with statements ranging from tax policy to transportation — has been distributed to members of Congress and key administration officials and can be downloaded at the NLBMDA website, dealer.org.
Jeremy Stine is manager of government and public affairs for the NLBMDA (dealer.org).

In reply to perro08, post #647 I suspect that the new policy of sustainable distribution will continue until the management are satisfied that the full value of the Vietnamese interests has been clarified - it is just taking longer than expected. When that happens I suspect the original strategy will be applied. However I would be equally pleased with the new strategy and am in no hurry for a change;-)! |

In reply to perro08, post #647 Yes - I think Kinkell is correct on this. Sustainable doesn't necessarily mean that they will be sustained - or even start! I view it as a clear marking of the cards for both industry and the City in relation to the earning power of the assets. So, at the minimum, the thought that the cashflow will be "wasted" on excessive amounts of exploration will be put to bed and the share price should find a more appropriate natural level. Anywhey, given your metaphors, you can start putting some dates in your dairy from a few weeks time. ;-) |

In reply to rhomboid1, post #652 Not a table, but the FT site should be up to date for forecasts (mouse over chart bars for details) Currently has only 1 analyst forecast for the half-year ( revenue $317.4mn, EPS 33 cents) but has 15 for the full year ...... .....though a big spread: $614mn revenue (range $382-773mn), 73 cents EPS (range 46-125 cents) Full-year forecasts from notes: 1) The last JPM piece I saw (mid-May) was suggesting $675mn revenue for the full year, 70 cents EPS and $445mn y/e net cash. 2) FWIW Goldman (from their sector piece of early June) are the top end estimate for EPS $1.25 ! 3) Exane (note heading "The Wonga Way" ! ;-)) go for revenue $463mn and 60 cents EPS, with $459mn y/e cash. 4) RBC's March note had revenue of $705mn and a 2013 EPS estimate of 79 cents (H1 numbers roughly half those) - but they assumed a 50 cents a share distribution in H2 (though they were also assuming a Cabinda disposal), leaving y/e cash at $305mn. 5) Nomura's March note had an EPS forecast of 60.4 cents Amazingly most analyst numbers make no assumptions about the distribution...... 35 cents EPS on revenue of about $330mn looks to be "about the mark" for H1 HTH ee ps...FWIW I would currently go for about them having about $373mn cash at the half-year end ($415mn on interim results eve), with H1 revenue at around $355mn and H1 EPS around 38 cents. Still expecting over 40p to be distributed...... |

In reply to redhill, post #663 It would in most circumstances but not when "18"! other people have given it the thumbs up. Astonishing. |

Don't see the point in posting on here when there's such a herd mentality. |

In reply to nigelpm, post #664 Lets see. The OP popped up in the early hours of the morning, apparently to ramp some unrelated shares and to suggest that directors had awarded themselves a 10% pay rise. Since the accounts from spring show a c.5% rise was awarded, I assumed that he'd simply posted in the wrong place. Certainly there was no value added - which is why I gave a thumbs down. I was surprised that tournesol bothered to respond, but couldn't disagree with the thought that nothing of value had been provided. What surprises me even more though is your reaction, nigel. Are you the same chap as I met some years ago in Edinburgh? If you are, it seems you've wandered off into a parallel universe somewhere along the way. I'm not bothered about people making negative posts if they wish. The only thing that bothers me is that they are considered and factual - and actually add something to the discussion. Just for the record. |

In reply to emptyend, post #666 Agree with you completely on the value point. In fact I noted this myself recently. What I dislike is the way posters responded. Just let it be. Isaac soon went away when people ignored him. Interacting with these posters makes it a lot worse and wastes more time |
