Sad but true
I was so excited for this dress to arrive. I was leary because it hadn't been reviewed but I usually don't have any problems at The Limited. The color is perfect for summer and I like the light weight fabric but the fit is horrible. The bottom is ok but still a little baggy. The top just doesn't make sense. Too much fabric to go around and just looks frumpy. I am 5'1' 100lbs got the XS and felt like I had a garbage bag on. Sad but it will be returned.

Coral dress
The color of this dress was awesome and I have to agree with other reviews. I wanted to so keep it, I even thought about having it professional altered. Don't think it can be. It's to baggy up top and gives you no form to your body, very square looking not flattering at all. The bottom of dress fit fine and the fabric was so nice, I didn't find it to be shiny at all. I ordered a small . I'm 5'1 and weigh 125 pds. to give you an idea. They really should try another style with the same fabric. color is awesome! But returning it. :(

Fit Was All Wrong
I really wanted to like this dress. The color in person is definitely much brighter orange than it looks online but still pretty for the summer. The bottom half fit well but the top was baggy, especially around the waist and made me look heavier on top. Definitely wouldn't recommend this dress, unfortunately. I'll be returning this.
June 18, 2012
I really wanted to love this dress - the color is so pretty and spring/summery. However, the fabric is a lot shinier in person and the fit is altogether unflattering. The top is actually quite heavy with all of the layers and the way it lays over the elastic at the waist made me look top heavy. I am 5'7, 140lbs with longer legs and a slightly shorter torso and this looked horrible on me. So sad!

Uneven fit
I ordered this dress online, and I loved the color, but the fit was pretty horrible. The bottom half was fine, but the top was really baggy, especially just above the waist. Very unflattering... I'm returning it =(s

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - Alex Kirk scored 11 of his 12 points in the second half and No. 18 New Mexico overcame a sluggish start to beat Valparaiso 65-52 on Saturday night.
Chad Adams also scored 12 for the Lobos (10-0).
Ryan Broekhoff had 24 points for the Crusaders (6-3), but none of his teammates managed to score more than seven.
The Lobos forced a season-high 23 turnovers, and turned the miscues into 22 points.

Today's Follow Friday is about The Tenement Museum in New York City. One of the things I most like about genealogy is its emphasis on social history – the lives of ordinary citizens. The Lower East Side Tenement Museum tells the stories of immigrant families. Located in the heart of Manhattan's Lower East Side, which has been an immigrant portal for 200 years, 97 Orchard Street was home to an estimated 7,000 people from over 20 nations from 1863 to 1935. Inside, visitors view restored apartments and learn about the struggles of past generations in the hope of providing historical perspective on the experiences of today's newcomers.
When I first started helping people with their genealogical research 30+ years ago, it seemed that most library users were doing research on ancestors from New England and the South and intent on proving descents that would qualify them for the Mayflower Society, the DAR, and the like.
In those pre-Internet days, researchers who were working on African-American or immigrant ancestors in the 19th century were fairly rare. And since my own family was strictly Burke's Steerage instead of Burke's Peerage, it was pretty much impossible to use meaningful examples from my own research.
Today the Internet has brought genealogists together in ways that were never dreamed of. When I see a place like the Tenement Museum showing what life was like for less favored citizens, it makes me very happy.
If you're interested in what life was like for your immigrant ancestors in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Tenement Museum is a great resource. In addition to lesson plans, walking tours, building tours, and presentations, the Tenement Museum also has an archives. You can search the photograph collection here and their primary sources are here. They also have a blog that's a great read. And my next trip to Manhattan? I'm heading straight to the Tenement Museum.

For instance, they wipe down every piece of furniture removing every knick knack. They took out every item when they cleaned the shower.
Oh, and if you leave new linens they will put them on the bed for you. And they fold the toilet paper in a fancy little triangle, which I love.
I'm happy as a clam. I have very few complaints, but to be fair I will share.
- I wish they followed up some of the dusting with a damp cloth. Particularly, on my ceiling fans in my great room and blinds in the kitchen where they tend to get a little filmy.
- The price is a bit high for me to do weekly clean. I would totally do an initial clean like they did this time a few times a year for holidays, spring cleaning, party preparation, moving, etc.

I got a pretty bad sunburn on my shins about a week ago. It seemed like it was healing just fine, but today I noticed blisters on my legs. They're clearish white on the top, and the fluid inside is clear (like water). Basically, my whole shins are giant clear blisters (or hundreds of tiny blisters). I tried putting aloe gel on it. It's really freaking me out. What should I do? - Fiona*
Blisters like the ones you have are a sign that a sunburn is serious. The blisters don't always show up right away. They may take a few days or longer to develop.
If you have a fever, chills, nausea, or you start throwing up along with the blisters, call your doctor's office or a health clinic. If you have blisters with no other problems, take these steps to care for them:
Sunburns get better on their own, but they still affect your health. Each time you get a blistering sunburn, it damages skin cells and increases your chance of developing skin cancer. That's especially true if you get sunburns as a kid or teen. So promise yourself you'll be sun smart from now on. (And, if your sunburn is serious, see a doctor or nurse.)
Whenever you're outdoors, wear a "broad-spectrum" sunscreen (meaning it protects you from both UVA and UVB rays) with an SPF of 15 or higher. Reapply it often if you're on the beach, at the pool, or anywhere you might swim or sweat it off.
Want a tan? You can fake it with a sunless self-tanner, but self-tanners on their own don't protect you from UVA rays. So wear sunscreen as well.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has undergone surgery on his broken left arm, a person with knowledge of the operation tells The Associated Press. Gronkowski suffered the season-ending injury Sunday when he caught a pass from Tom Brady in the first quarter and landed out of bounds on the arm for an incompletion in New England's 41-28 playoff win over the Houston Texans. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not announced the surgery. Gronkowski had earlier surgery after breaking his left forearm on Nov. 18 in a 59-24 win over the Indianapolis Colts. He missed five games and returned for the season finale, a 28-0 victory over the Miami Dolphins. The Patriots (13-4) host the Baltimore Ravens (12-6) in the AFC championship game Sunday. ___ Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL

Financial Services:
Post-hearing Questions Regarding Recovering Foreign Regimes' Assets
GAO-04-831R, May 27, 2004
(202) 512-8979
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
On March 18, 2004, GAO testified before the House Subcommittee's hearing on "The Hunt for Saddam's Money: U.S. and Foreign Efforts to Recover Iraq's Stolen Money." This letter responds to Congress's request that we provide answers to follow-up questions from the hearing. Congress's questions, along with our responses, are included in the report.
GAO does not have an opinion on the best approach for pursuing plundered assets. The best approach is likely to vary, based upon the specific facts of the case, such as the party pursuing the assets, the location of the assets, and whether the location is known. The International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) authorizes the President to exercise economic powers to deal with unusual and extraordinary threats, which have their sources in whole or in part outside the United States, to the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States (50 U.S.C. 170) In October 2001, section 106 of the USA PATRIOT Act (P.L. 107-56), amended section 203 of IEEPA (50 USC 1702) to authorize the President, when the United States is engaged in armed hostilities or has been attacked by a foreign country or foreign nationals, to confiscate any property, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, of any foreign person, foreign organization, or foreign country that he determines has planned, authorized, aided, or engaged in such hostilities or attacks. The President may vest all right, title, and interest in such confiscated property in any agency or person the President designates. The property may be used for purposes that are in the interest of and for the benefit of the United States. The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has been actively involved in the Iraqi asset recovery effort. Department of the Treasury (Treasury)officials stated that U.S. banks are cooperating with the U.S. government in tracing illicit money. Under OFAC regulations, all U.S. persons, including financial institutions, are required to comply with orders to freeze assets and block transactions and report to OFAC within 10 business days of doing so. Treasury and Department of State (State) officials said that most of the frozen Iraqi assets that remain are located in financial institutions in Iraq's neighboring countries and in Europe. In March 2003, the Secretary of the Treasury requested that the international community identify and freeze all assets of the former Iraqi regime. Additionally, senior officials at Treasury and State have engaged in diplomatic efforts to encourage countries to report and transfer the amounts of Iraqi assets frozen within their countries.

Montreal, QC (Sports Network) - Florida Panthers goaltender Jose Theodore has a torn right groin and may be headed for surgery, according to RDS of Canada.
Theodore was tabbed as the starter in Saturday's 6-2 loss at Carolina, but departed the game after his first save of the contest, almost 2 1/2 minutes in, with an obvious right leg injury. He had to be carried off the ice, unable to put any pressure on the leg, and Scott Clemmensen was called upon for the remainder of the contest.
It is expected the Clemmensen will be in the net for the back end of the home- and-home set which is scheduled for south Florida on Sunday evening.
The 36-year-old is just 4-6-3 with a 3.29 goals-against average and .893 save percentage in 15 appearances this season.

You heard it here first.
Through the usual Plot Device Magical, movie versions of Spider-Man (from the first three films, not the upcoming release) and Wolverine have now been retroactively added to the Avengers movie. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to try to embed these characters into the plot. Can that mission be accomplished without mutilating the movie beyond recognition? How will they interact with the other Avengers. and what contributions can they make to the defeat of the Chitauri?

"The community have a unique opportunity to conserve our forest and ensure the health of our living standard by present and also for future generation," Epemu, an eighth-grader, wrote in an essay on the need to protect his tropical forest homeland.
Sharing the Forests: Communities and Local Species
Epemu lives in remote Huon Peninsula, a region of northern Papua New Guinea blessed by lush tropical forest stretching from interior mountains to coastal reefs.
As subsistence villagers, Epemu's people depend on the forest ecosystems for their water, food, traditional medicines and other essential resources. They share the forest with unique wildlife such as Matschie's tree kangaroos (Dendrolagus matschiei), a species found nowhere else that is classed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List.
IN DEPTH: Learn about many species CI and our partners protect.
And now they have worked with their government and partners including CI and Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo to protect the forest by creating the YUS Conservation Area.
A Team of 35 Villages
Named for the three rivers that flow through it – the Yopno, Uruwa and Som – the 187,000-acre (76,000-hectare) reserve is the first national conservation area declared by Papua New Guinea under a law passed in 1978 but never utilized until now.
Its creation benefits the people of the YUS region, the rich biodiversity of the tropical forest there and all of us around the world. Protecting the new conservation area's tropical forests will prevent the estimated 13 million tons of carbon stored in the forest biomass from being released into the atmosphere.
To make it all happen, more than 35 local villages – including Epemu's – contributed land to help create the YUS Conservation Area and committed to keeping it pristine.
Such community involvement is an essential component of modern conservation, says Lisa Dabek, the field director at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo and founder and director of the zoo's Tree Kangaroo Conservation Program.
"What we have accomplished here is more than just an act of environmental preservation – it's a sustainable model for community-based conservation that works," said Dabek, who first visited the remote region more than a dozen years ago to research tree kangaroos.
Global Support for Healthy Communities, Healthy Habitats
Now considered the Jane Goodall of tree kangaroo conservation, Dabek led the trust-building effort among the YUS region's scattered communities that resulted in the new conservation area to protect vital tree kangaroo habitat and the vital forest ecosystems.
Her efforts, with support from CI's Global Conservation Fund (GCF), improved educational opportunities such as the classes in which Epemu learned about conservation.
Since 2002, GCF has provided more than $1 million to help establish the YUS Conservation Area. Support for tree kangaroo conservation and research came from National Geographic, Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) institutions, and other foundations and individual donors.
Now GCF has pledged an additional $1 million to be matched by Woodland Park Zoo as seed money for a Conservation Trust Fund to cover costs of managing the conservation area.
FIND OUT MORE: CI works with corporate, NGO and community partners.
In addition, the German government's LifeWeb Initiative has provided a grant to CI and Woodland Park Zoo to support the conservation area, PNG community development projects and climate change research.
"The new YUS Conservation Area is a model in community leadership that can inspire so many other countries and communities around the world," GCF Managing Director Jennifer Morris said. "The benefits of protecting these tropical forests for both nature and people will also reach far beyond Papua New Guinea and benefit everyone by preventing millions of tons of carbon from being released into the atmosphere."
Worldwide Inspiration In July 2008, CI President Russ Mittermeier and Senior Research Scientist Bruce Beehler visited Dabek in the YUS region forest. It was a rare first for Mittermeier, who has traveled to every corner of the planet but had never before encountered tree kangaroos in the wild.
IN PHOTOS: The YUS Conservation Agreement
"I was really impressed with everything going on there," Mittermeier said. "The commitment and enthusiasm of the YUS people to conserve the forest and the tree kangaroos is an inspiration to all of us. We are proud to be partners with these communities and with the Papua New Guinea government, the German government and the Woodland Park Zoo's Tree Kangaroo Conservation Program, which all have worked so hard to make it happen. This amazing project and its success should now open the door to the creation of many more conservation areas in Papua New Guinea."

I wanted to list my favorite pre-workouts and wanted to get peoples feedbacks on what their favorites where and why. Alot of the times I get different answers from supplement owners, and why a certain product sells better etc.
1. Elev8- Pure Fitness Nutrition
2. Equalizer- Chaotic Labz
3. G33ked- Anabolic Kreations
I was able to sample each one, at a local supplement store called Max Staxs. G33ked was good but the 1,3 really messed my headup and left me feeling strongout. Good energy but not what I was looking for. Equalizer, was amazing loaded with an amazing profile, it really had me going, set a few PRs at the gym, and had crazy energy. Elev8 was by far my favorite delicious taste "Mango Pineapple" clean energy and a pump for my entire workout. These have been my favorite pre-workouts for the month of July. I wanted to hear other peoples favorites, so maybe I could get samples for those as well.

ATLANTA (AP) -- Authorities say a $49 million winning lottery ticket has been sold in south Georgia.
With many lottery players focused on a record $500 Powerball jackpot that has yet to be won, the winning Georgia ticket matched all six numbers from a Tuesday night drawing in another game, Mega Millions.
The ticket was sold in Thomasville, about 60 miles south of Albany.
Lottery officials say the winning ticket was purchased at Susie Qs on U.S. Highway 319 North.
Meanwhile, the next Powerball drawing is scheduled for Wednesday night.

The MSM standard practice is to interview by taking the worst most extreme antitheses, and or "talking points", from deniers (for example), and using them as questions for climate scientists (for example). Similarly in interviewing a Labor minister the questions are obtained from the most recent talking points released by the Liberal Party. This practice has become so ubiquitous as to be accepted as merely "the way things are done".
I guess if you asked a journalist about this they would, after expressing surprise that you were questioning this approach, express a couple of reasons for it. One would be that it saves time, that journalists in this time of media cost-cutting and job-shedding, simply are unable to research a topic in any meaningful way before doing an interview. Indeed I suspect that the idea of "research" being anything EXCEPT reading something from an opponent is now foreign to journalism in Australia.
The other thing they might well say, in the Manichaean world that is modern Australian journalism, is that by acting as the mouthpiece for the most extreme opposing view to that of the interview subject, they are giving the viewer/listener/reader the benefit of the full range of opinion available on a topic. That to oppose the Light not with the Dark, but merely with the Twilight would be to exhibit unpardonable bias, to not be giving the audience the complete he said-she said experience so essential to modern journalism.
They might, if especially thoughtful, suggest that it is indeed their role, their purpose, to act as the megaphone for the opposing view. That the only proper way to present a topic is in debate format, with two equal and opposite debaters seated in two chairs separated by a scrupulously-balanced-on-a-fence presenter. And that, failing that possibility, for, say, logistical reasons, it is the interviewer's job to get off the fence and sit in the other chair, in loco parentis for the opposition.
Now, pardon me for being an old-fashioned, indeed retrograde, curmudgeon, whose ideas about the media and journalists have remained irretrievably stuck in the nineteenth century, but this is balderdash and hogwash. The job of the journalist is to speak for the public, not for the opposition, and certainly not for their proprietor and his (inevitably) rich friends. [It is almost invariably the case that it is only thought necessary to give voice to the other extreme of opinion when the interviewee is even mildly to the left, an interviewee from the Right is considered to already embody that full range of acceptable opinion referred to as Common Sense]. They are the ones, given that once honourable badge of office the microphone, who get to speak for the millions of citizens without a voice, sitting at home screaming obscenities at the television, or putting newspapers into the cat's tray. It is not one hand holding a microphone but the hands of millions, and the journalist should be asking the questions they want asked.
Yes, yes, of course it is a big ask, but the way to answer the call, to hear the people sing, is to do your own research. Let me say that again, since it seems such a strange concept, DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. The opponents of whatever the issue is already have their own microphones, have their seat in parliament, have their tame shock-jocks and right wing bloggers and columnists. Their voices are loud in the land, and they are voices inevitably based on a potent mix of ideology and vested interest.
Doing research, real research, reading the facts and obtaining the data about the issue from a variety of reliable sources, turns the journalist into Everywoman (or, of course, Everyman), the voice of the people, not the voice of Rupert (vox populi, not vox dei). People are not interested in he said-she said journalism games, where they are told first that the world is round and then, equally convincingly a moment later, that it is flat. They want, I think, a journalist who has done enough research to know that "the world is flat" theory is a dead duck (an ex-parrot), and can therefore ask questions, based on its roundness, about, say, seasonality, or airline schedules.
So there's that – the interviewer should, as far as possible, be in touch with the real world, provide the context in which to place the latest ideas about climate or drugs or economics and so on, ask the interviewee informed questions, know enough to stop the flow of bullshit when it begins.
But there is more, and I have touched on this important issue a number of times before:
The problem is this – when a journalist adopts the propositions put out by conservative politician, climate change denier, anti-vaxer, tobacco company, and uses them to question, say, economists, climate scientists, doctors, he or she is in effect providing the nutters and ratbags with a cloak of respectability. Giving the wild-eyed basement-dweller a stage and one of two chairs, equal weight, in a studio is one thing, and very bad it is too. But at least in that situation the wild-eyes are clearly visible squinting into the camera lens.
But when a journalist uses the cyclostyled press release from the Flat Earth Society to create and then ask questions, those questions are then being asked by an apparently normal, non-squint-eyed, functional, and rather appealing person, and are thereby given credibility by this advocate they would not have if their originator was asking them. Furthermore, most people having little if any idea how modern journalism is done, the questions gain an even greater spurious authority by being apparently based on independent research by the objective Voice of the People. So when a journalist asks, say, "why is it that global temperatures haven't increased in 15 years", the viewer assumes that, in fact, global temperatures haven't, you know, increased in 15 years, see, told you Alan Jones and Christopher Monckton were right.
By contrast a journalist who did some research would ask "we know global temperatures are rising as fast as ever, could you explain how the heat is being distributed between land and ocean, and the effects of the Southern Oscillation Index on year to year variations." Quite different information and impression conveyed to the audience. Same with questions like "what are you going to do with out of control government debt?" or "the large number of cases of autism caused by vaccination mean that parents should be cautious about immunising their children, don't they?"
So, my question to the Journalist is this – "your profession is now notorious for being stenographers to power and for creating false balance narratives which damage public policy, when are you going to return to research-based journalism?" Fair question do you think?

Alicia--keeping it real as always Thanks.
Alicia Colon--another national treasure.
Thank you, Alicia. I especially loved your personal stories. Thankfulness is a choice, and your article embodies that.Happy Thanksgiving!
FTA: "The youth of the Western World has no concept of history or what their grandparents lived through. The greatest generation that overcame so much in the Great Depression yet succeeded in life gave birth to the worst one - mine. The worst of us then went on and spawned an even more spoiled and ignorant group that showed up on Wall Street full of contempt, whining about everything from racism to student loans they have no intention of paying back."This is just one of the many truths contained in this wonderful article. It really is a must read.An aside on this day of thanksgiving. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Ms. Lucianne and her wonderful staff for creating an oasis of education, warmth, humor, and an occasional rant or two in the dry desert that is the main stream media. Blessings to you all.
Each American comes to the Turkey Table today with different emotions....I thank God for my conservative values and morals....learned at my Mother´s apron string....Thanks Mom!!LZK
Thanks Alicia, for a bit of perspective in these frustrating times.Happy Thanksgiving, all.
Went to her website from the link. Skull and crossbones and message saying the site had been hacked.
´´Republicans still have control of the House and in this case, gridlock is a good thing.´´Absolutely, spot on Alicia. Too bad so many Americans don´t realize government is the problem. Not the solution.´´Thirty-three states now have Republican governors who can wield the power of states´ rights to nullify bad laws.´´(are you counting Khris Kringle Christie in the 33?) and my Gov. Corbett along with the RINOs who are implinenting Obamacare´s insurance ´´pools´´?
"The youth of the Western World has no concept of history or what their grandparents lived through. The greatest generation that overcame so much in the Great Depression yet succeeded in life gave birth to the worst one - mine. The worst of us then went on and spawned an even more spoiled and ignorant group that showed up on Wall Street full of contempt, whining about everything from racism to student loans they have no intention of paying back."I have often thought the same thing and wondered how such an amazing group of people could raise children who rejected all of their values. The reality is that it was not the parents but the media that began to influence and corrupt the youth of America, generation after generation.We went from watching Father Knows Best and Leave It to Beaver, to RugRats and Nickelodeon where no show has any responsible adults. The media imparts its corrupted values onto our children.Add in the disruption of the family influence because of the necessity of having 2 working parents, and all the values taught at home by stay at home moms when the greatest generation was raising kids became much more limited due to time constraints.Our schools became bastions of the liberal/progressive ideology, teaching children America is bad and evil. Many minorities teach their children to hate those with success.I count my blessings every day, but after counting my blessings, I pray for our country that we can somehow turn things around. After this election, I am truly concerned.Happy Thanksgiving to all!
i am so stunned. really i am.Of all the things I have read from the NE about Sandy, Ms. Colon´s testimony is the most damning.Is Alicia Colon the ONLY decent adult on Staten Island? Maybe so.After every hurricane on the gulf coast, but especially after Katrina, I see what is greatest about America and what to be thankful for:Americans.People who reach out and help. People who strive with me.Compare them to the Muslims ( who are citizens of a different nation where ever they are ) and you´ll see Iraq, Gaza and the stingy Tsunami aid. Compare them to Africans and see the starvation in Zimbabwe ( which used to export food )and the genocide in Rwanda. Hell, Compare them to France that had 15,000 ( that´s fifteen THOUSAND ) elderly die in a heat wave?Now, Ms Colon informs me that Staten Island is a foreign country.Come home, Alica Colon.
It´s sometimes easy to forget how much we have to be thankful for. Thanks for the reality check.
As it is written..."I cursed my fate because I had no shoes, and then I met a man who had no feet."
Whoa. Did not write this to disparage Staten Islanders, many of who are going through very rough times and are grateful for the thousands of volunteers who have rushed to their aid. This Island bears little resemblance to a foreign country because it is predominantly conservative and ignored by the mayor and state.
Her site was hacked and she was given a death threat. she is asking for help. (Via facebook) If anyone can help or point her in that direction, please go to FB & send her a message. You can do that without being her FB friend.
Or it looks like you can do it here :-)
#1 #2 #3
whats up with her site?? hacked...and now i read she received death threats?? alicia,i see you read our site as well..(how cool is that?)..if there is anything we can do to help,let us know...P.S...thanks for responding to my email...it was a small gesture but speaks volumes of your manners and etiquette..God bless..
I posted this on my FB page - hopefully it will sink in to some of those skulls full of mush!
As we count our blessings here at LDot this morning, gratitude to our Lucianne Team for posting beautifully thoughtful and truthful messages like this from Alicia Colon ... And continued prayers of for her and Staten Island residents, fellow LDotters, and America...Thank You, Lord, for America...
Oftentimes, the greatest blessings we have are memories of Thanksgivings past. However, today we live in a dangerous time and a Constitutionally damaged country. God is singularly testing the citizenry of this nation to determine which it holds more dear, the strength of men and human solutions, or the power of God and His grace blessings.The sacrifice of our Founding Fathers in establishing this nation was great, but even they recognized the greatest sacrifice of all was the saving work of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Do you know Him? He was nailed to a despicable instrument of Roman execution on the hill of Golgotha, a punishment reserved for the most vile of criminals, a wooden cross. The perfect, sinless, God-Man, the Lamb of God, willingly went to the cross, despising the shame, rejected by His own people, and given a common criminal´s death accomplished His Father´s Plan to become the perfect and absolute sin sacrifice for us all.(end pt 1)
As we enjoy this Thanksgiving, more than any other, turn your face to God and give Him thanks for our redeemer from the slave market of sin and physical death, His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. We can only know our Savior, Jesus Christ, and accept His saving work on our behalf by believing in Him. He already bore your sins, past, present, and future. He already knows every sin you have ever committed, or will commit. He knows you better than you know yourself. Not only that, but he has already forgiven you for everything that´s incompatible with His perfect essence, and yet He still wants an eternal relationship with you. The proof of that desire was His bearing your sins in His body on the cross. This will be the greatest of all Thanksgivings, if you make the decision to believe in Him.Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." John 14:6"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household." Acts 16:31May God Bless America
Every now and then, amid the chaos and the engulfing darkness, a moment of clarity, of lifting light. Such moments are indeed blessings.Let us not simply absorb them. Let us reflect and magnify them.
#14I understand what you´re saying. No, you didn´t write to disparage anyone. You wouldn´t do that. That´s why I invited you to come home.Just to the south of me, my great grandfather´s house went down in Katrina. My parents, in their 70´s, left it as it was flooded and made their way to my house on higher ground. A million dollar home with irreplaceable antiques, under insured of course.But I met a man who had returned from Houston for his family. He had spoken to his wife as the storm came ashore and she refused to leave the home without him there. She and 3 of his 5 children were lost.My family hadn´t lost anything, and neither have most of the people on Staten Island.
Sorry, folks.Teachers unions no longer teach counting.
Excellent piece. Saving it to share.I´m one of those "hayseed hicks from the South". I grew up hearing stories, from my grandparents and parents, of the hard times suffered and the blessings received during the Great Depression. Alicia is right, that history is an education sorely needed by today´s youth.I can still see and hear, in my memories, my grandfather,"Papa", standing in front of our little country church congregation, and leading his favorite song:Count Your Blessings.When upon life's billows you are tempest tossed,When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,Count your many blessings, name them one by one,And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.Count your blessings, name them one by one,Count your blessings, see what God hath done!Count your blessings, name them one by one,And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.Are you ever burdened with a load of care?Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,And you will keep singing as the days go by.RefrainWhen you look at others with their lands and gold,Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;Count your many blessings. Wealth can never buyYour reward in heaven, nor your home on high.RefrainSo, amid the conflict whether great or small,Do not be disheartened, God is over all;Count your many blessings, angels will attend,Help and comfort give you to your journey's end.I´m thankful for every blessing, especially for knowledge of the saving good news of Christ´s Gospel, and the family who lived it from the time of my great-grandfather. I´m thankful for being American, and having a knowledge of what that means. I´m thankful for fellow Americans who love our country, and have shown, and show it by word and deed. May God bless, guide, and strengthen us to be the people he wants for us to be.

New England, which hasn't won a Super Bowl since the 2004 season, had four injuries, the scariest when running back Stevan Ridley hurt his head when he was knocked flat by Bernard Pollard in the fourth quarter, forcing a fumble. Baltimore turned that into the final touchdown, on the only short scoring drive it had, 47 yards.
The touchdown by Pitta capped the Ravens' best drive of the game, covering 87 yards in 10 plays and made it 14-13. It started with a 15-yard defensive pass interference penalty, and it was an indication of things to come.
The Ravens gained just 130 yards in the first half, yet trailed by only six points.
Brady guided a 13-play drive to Stephen Gostkowski's 31-yard field goal for a 3-0 lead. Neither defense yielded a big play, and punters Zoltan Mesko and Sam Koch were the busiest guys on the field.
That changed when the teams switched sides for the second quarter. Baltimore again was pinned deep, at its 10, but Flacco led a 13-play drive. Ray Rice, whose 83-yard run on the Ravens' first play from scrimmage in their wild-card round victory here three years ago, ran left untouched for the TD.
Awakened by Baltimore's march, the Patriots staged a long one of their own, 79 yards, aided by a 15-yard personal foul by Ravens linebacker Dannell Ellerbe. Wes Welker picked up 24 yards on a short pass, then got free in the right corner of the end zone after a mix-up in the Ravens' secondary, making it 10-7.
It was 13-7 by halftime as Gostkowski connected from 25 yards, with New England outsmarting Baltimore several times. But Brady and Belichick made mental errors by not calling a timeout quickly enough after a short scramble by the 35-year-old quarterback. So the Patriots didn't get a shot at the end zone and Gostkowski made his second kick.
Shockingly for an offense that scored 557 points this season, that was it for New England.
"We are probably the only team in the AFC that matches up good with the boy, No. 12 over there and his coach," linebacker Terrell Suggs said of Brady and Belichick.
Now comes another intriguing matchup — for everything.
NOTES: Brady has 5,949 yards passing, the most in NFL history for the postseason. He threw for 320 yards Sunday but was picked off twice in the fourth quarter. ... Patriots CB Aqib Talib hurt his thigh and DT Kyle Love injured his knee. Backup safety Patrick Chung was helped off the field after one play. ... Baltimore beat San Francisco 16-6 in the 2011 season.

"My first memory of eating something was a negative experience. I ordered a Spanish tortilla omelet when I was traveling in Spain with my family. I asked for ketchup and the waiter brought me diluted tomato paste, and my father made me eat the omelet with it. It tasted horrible." –JBF Award Winner Douglas Rodriguez, Alma de Cuba, Philadelphia; Deseo at the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa, Scottsdale, AZ; and OLA at the Sanctuary Hotel, Miami Beach, FLNews Feed: November 19

Beard, never one to oppose ramped up flavor, endorses generous extra butter and parsley at the finish.Recipe: James Beard's Brussels Sprouts and Chestnuts

WHAT? Easter brew. According to The Beer Drinker's Bible, bock beers are associated with Easter and originated in Einbeck, Germany, in the 14th and 15th centuries. ("Bock," which means goat in German, may be a corruption of "beck.") Bocks are aged for at least one month. They're full-flavored, exhibit a malty sweetness, and may taste slightly of chocolate. The alcohol content of bock-style beer, about 7 percent, is relatively high. WHERE? Tom Perini's Beard House dinner WHEN? November 19, 2009 HOW?

In the realm of culturally marked behaviors, eating in New York is a triple whammy: you are what you eat, you are where you eat, and you are because you eat out."

Hey there,
I'm sick of it. When you don't have already some popularity on the org forums you just can't start a MEP these days. You can try, but most likely you will be flooded with negative comments, flame and silly pictures just to bring you down. This seams to go out of hand and ruines a lot of peoples excitement and fun doing such projects. Even simple interest gauge threads often don't have any chance at all.
Let's face it: If you choose to make a project based on something that elitists of a genre dislike you're fucked. Don't even think of making a MEP featuring Tokio Hotel or Emocore.
I don't want to see MEPs with this genre too, but why don't people just post that they're not interested and leave out the flame and than move on to other things? There is no need to pick on the MEP starters Just let them do what they want and let them have fun and at least: Give them a chance to do it right. You might also want to point out what things to do right about coordinating and video quality stuff as well.
I sometimes hear people complain about other people highjacking threads and posting negative comments and spam over and over again. I'm not into forum moderation, but is there any way to request bans of people in certain threads? You can probably ban them from the whole MEP forums, but that somehow might be too much action.

Funny story-- my grandfather wore glasses like those for roughly 50 years. About 5 years ago, my family convinced him that they were "so not cool" and bought him his first pair of wire frames. He always said they were cool and lately I've been wishing I had my own pair! - December 5, 2011 at 3:35 PM

This is a group for INTERMEDIATE hikers who enjoy hiking, but can not always meet during the day.

I will also post random weekend ad …

Defines any situation where conditions are undesirable. Commonly used around a war time conflict by members of the Armed Forces. It sounds like a put-down, but it is actually a testament to the dedication of those who endure it. Also known as "the shit". Can you handle 'the SUCK'!?

Bigtrak Six-Wheeled RC Tank
Product Details
Brand: |
Big Trak, if you don't remember, was an amazingly cool-looking 6-wheeled tank that you could program yourself to move around whilst firing its photon beam. Happily, not much has changed with this new version, which means you can not only relive the fun you had as a kid but, if you've got children of your own, pass it on through the family.
A few simple instructions can make your Big Trak go forward a certain number of lengths, fire, and then come back to you. The onboard memory will store up to 16 commands in one go, which means you can easily have your faithful tank-servant completing some complex manoeuvres in no time.
Big Trak comes with all the necessary black/red/yellow stickers that made the original so distinctive in the 1980s. So whether you're looking for a cool gift for kids or you're on a nostalgia trip Big Trak is Back!
- One of the greatest toys of the '80s re-issued.
- Program your Big Trak to drive around the place and fire photons.
- Pre-Program up to 16 different commands in one go.
- 360 degree turning.
- Maximum length of one move is 99 lengths (one length = 33 cm).

Big track
It wasn't clear that the truck and can holder were sold separately. However, the Bigtrak Six-Wheeled RC Tank is fantastic and have had fun using the toy.
Bigtrak Six-Wheeled RC Tank
Excellent product. I used to have one as a child and loved it so it brings back memories and nice to see my own children loving it too.
Review of Bigtrak Six-Wheeled RC Tank
My children have loved playing with this. I thought that they would become bored with it after a while but they return to it at least once a week! The beeping and shooting noises do irritate quite quickly but hey, that's a small thing when they're having fun!
Great Gift for 8 year old to adult!
My 8 year old son loves this gift. It comes with simple, clear instructions he could follow and was easy to set up. The challenge is to use your skill and judgement to create programs for the Bigtrak to perform. Lots of mathematical fun in terms of estimating lengths, degrees on a clock face etc. Brilliant.
Big Trak
Bought the Bigtrak for my 34 year old son as he was waffling on about the one he had when he was young. I'm sure he will love this as a joke for christmas it's just like the original!
Remember it well. Purchased this gismo for my son who is now a parent. It lasted a week or so then my boy decided to see how it worked and took it apart. Put it back together and it still worked. A well made and fascinating toy for all ages.
Brilliant gadget
I bought this for my parners son at xmas, it is a brilliant thing to buy to bring the big kids (partner) and the little kids togetther, they both spend hours sending each other things from one room to the other on top of the bigtrak. love it :-).
So I remember a Christmas many moons ago where my dad, bless him, gadget head that he is, introduced myself and my sister to Big Trak. While my sister wasn't too bothered, her being a girly girl an all at that time, I was absolutely stoked and astounded. Here was something that could really take my Thundercats into battle for me. Great fun ensued and for months afterwards big trak was seen whizzing around our front room, crashing haphazardly into the brown nylon sofa (ah yeah, we were cool back in those days) and narrowly missing killing the betamax (it committed suicide of its own accord in 1989). Sadly Biggy went the way of most toys in our house and hasn't been seen since the summer of 1990 when my mother had a massive spring clean and donated him to the Brownies Bring and Buy Sale. When I saw he was back again though on IWOOT all the fond memories came flooding back. I haven't made my purchase yet but my father (now 60 and still gadget mad) will be chuffed to bits come christmas morning when Biggy is reintroduced to him. Thanks IWOOT!!!
No Waaaaaay! Big Trak is BACK!!
Giddy puddles of excitement indeed! Big Trak was a HUGE part of my 80s childhood, it was my dearest companion and I took great pride in my supreme skills of programming. In fact, by going forward "99" lots of times with the occasional few degrees of turn, it used to follow me down the road to my friend's house, consuming vast quantities of HP2 batteries (as were). Geek? Never! Big Trak gave me infinite Cool points amongst my green-with-envy cohorts! So, some 28 years late, my 5yr old daughter is destined to be introduced to "Biggy" this Christmas. Now my question is this ....... will they also reintroduce his awesome 4-wheeled trailer that used to carry my Action Man and tip on command? Reversing that monster with commands makes HGV driving look like a walk in the park!
Superb Item
I bought my son one of these when he was 10 and he loved it. Unfortunately he programmed it to go left instead of right and it fell down the stairs. He was heartbroken. I tried to get him another one when he was 21, but without fail. Two years ago he managed to get hold of another one and, at 38, it is his pride and joy and only allows other kids to play with it under strict supervision. I'm now going to buy one for my Grandson who, I know, will love it.
Well Done Big Trak !!
Well I wanted one of these as a kid some 30 years ago and i never got one and had given up all hope of ever owning one untill now !! and boy do love it. Its looks so cool and retro from the box, the stickers to put on it,the sounds it makes and the old skool membrain keypad on the top..Its easy to program with a really helpfull manual explaining how to control it and how to get the best from it. Its called big Trak for a reason its Big ! huge infact and feels solidly made..no cheap re-issue here..Its fast as well zipping around shooting it blue laser as it goes !! would recommend it to anyone who loves a cool retro toy but doesnt want the pain of finding an orginal working one which will be overpriced.. If like me you always wanted one but Santa never delivered then nows your chance to re-live your child hood. Ordered on a thursday standard delivery and it arrived by Friday lunch time..how good its that !! thanks Iwoot.. A++++
