text: This morning I began pulling together the latest maximum height for all trees by state - the states we've concentrated on. The information is scattered, but I think the numbers given in the attached list are accurate. the only non-NTS number is the Kentucky tall tree, because it was climbed and tape-drop measured. I refuse to even consider non-NTS sources, especially in eastern states like Michigan, which have zero credibility. We need to add more western states. I'll leave that to Michael Taylor and Don Bertolette. I'm unsure if we have enough data from Alabama, Mississippi, and Arkansas to list the highest number we have. Conspicuously absent from the list are Connecticut and Rhode Island, practically my backyard. However, I have not been able to locate outstanding tall tree sites in either state, although I have good reason to believe they exist, especially Connecticut. I request the help of the rest of you in maintaining this list. Eventually, we should rely on the database for this kind of information, but in the near term, we need to maintain it in Excel. Oh yes, I didn't include the dead Yellow Buckeye from West Virginia. The list is not meant to be historical maximums, but one of currently live trees.

Portland's Petite Perfection
Longfellow Square's new posh bistro offers classic French cuisine in a casual, Parisian setting.
- By: Michaela Cavallaro
- Photography by: Mark Fleming
From a diner's perspective, Petite Jacqueline has loads of good mojo. Some of that is inherited: The French bistro occupies the storefront that for years housed Café Uffa, one of Portland's most beloved neighborhood eateries.
More recently, it was home to Evangeline, chef Erik Desjarlais' effort to translate the adventurous French fine dining he'd offered at Bandol for the masses. So when Petite Jacqueline opened in March, two key elements were already crossed off the to-do list: a comfortable, welcoming vibe (albeit with itty-bitty bathrooms) and a legacy of tasty French fare, heavy on the butter, and perfectly sauced.
Of course, one restaurateur's ability to serve beautiful food in a particular piece of real estate has little bearing on the success of subsequent tenants' menus. That's where Steve and Michelle Corry, with business partner Elizabeth Koenigsberg, come in. Flush from the success of Five Fifty-Five, which landed Steve Corry on the cover of Food & Wine magazine and quickly became a Portland fine dining institution, the Corrys decided to launch a more casual place. "Michelle's family is from France, and she and Steve had cooked with her grandmother, Jacqueline, who was an amazing French chef," says Koenigsberg, who first worked with the couple when she served as general manager at Five Fifty-Five. "All three of us thought that Portland really needed something more casual, more approachable, but with the same high-quality ingredients we use at Five Fifty-Five."
Petite Jacqueline sets the tone — modern, with a hint of retro Parisian flair — the moment you walk in the door. Light streams in from the enormous windows facing Longfellow Square, reflecting off the lightweight aluminum chairs and stainless steel bar, with a few large mirrors that fill the cozy space with a warm glow. A hardwood floor — save for the bar area, which is black-and-white tile — and pale yellow beadboard and marble-topped tables make the room feel unpretentious and inviting.
And then there's the food, which ranges from deceptively simple dishes featuring one star ingredient to classic French preparations including escargots, terrine of foie gras, charcuterie, coq au vin, and moules frites. If your French is rusty, you may need help deciphering a few menu items. Fortunately, Petite Jacqueline's friendly, knowledgeable servers — wearing the long white aprons of their Parisian counterparts — are happy to provide translation services for those unaware that, say, poireaux is a delicately flavored pool of braised leeks draped in vinaigrette. The wait staff is also up to speed on the heavily French wine list, which includes both house wines by the carafe and an extensive list by the glass and bottle.
Even the standard bread course receives care and attention — but no extra fuss — at Petite Jacqueline. For one thing, your crusty mini baguette arrives not in a basket, but in a long, thin paper bag stamped with a fleur-de-lis. You and your dining companions can tear off rough chunks and slather them with the accompanying herb butter, a subtle house-made affair. "We want people to feel like they're eating with friends and family at home, but still offer the service that you'd expect when you're going out and paying for a nice meal," says Koenigsberg.
That combination of high and low extends to the rest of the menu as well: the soup du jour on one visit is a rich, silky puree of asparagus, a shining example of the kitchen's proficiency with French technique. Coq au vin is executed just as beautifully, with chicken thighs braised in red wine until they're falling apart, piled with mushrooms and lardons atop a tangle of wide noodles. The steak frites are cooked perfectly to order, the steak medium-rare and the crispy frites spilling off the edge of the plate.
Dessert is just lovely, whether you go for the classic chocolate mousse or one night's decadent special of crepes with banana, Nutella, and hazelnuts. But you don't have to splurge on a whole meal to sample Petite Jacqueline's wares: Koenigsberg and the Corrys are happy if you stop by the bar for a drink on a Saturday night, or come in for a late dinner. "We love to have a bustling but relaxed feel in the room," says Koenigsberg. "French bistros are casual and homey — and that's just what we want to be."
Petite Jacqueline is located at 190 State Street in Portland. Open for dinner daily at 5 p.m. Soups and salads $5 to $8; sides $4 to $6; entrees $8 to $13; les plats (full meals with sides) $12 to $25; desserts and cheeses $2.50 to $8. 207-553-7044. Bistropj.com

Museums Tours Around the World
Getting Started
Encourage students to choose a starting location near their home or in a part of the world that interests them. Discuss students' particular interests and fascination with places and cultures to generate excitement. Help them to understand that an online visit to a museum, like an actual one, is a multi-faceted experience. In addition to displaying and housing artworks, museums are often designed with spaces that stimulate the mind and imagination of visitors. Some sense of the architecture and design elements of the buildings and/or grounds will be conveyed in the web site. Most sites also provide information on events and activities sponsored by the museum. Once students have selected their museums, give them ample time to explore the various galleries and exhibits, and to identify favorite artworks or artifacts. Encourage students to look at this activity as a series of adventures into different cultures. Ask them to think about what aspects of history each museum's particular holdings help preserve.
Classroom Follow-Up
If students are able to download images and print them out, have them do so. Instruct them to keep the prints in a portfolio, clearly labeled with credit line information. After completing this activity, students may give brief presentations to the class on the museum they liked the best, including a description of the various exhibits, the most famous works, and any special activities offered.
Back to Top
Be A Museum Curator
Explain to students the role and responsibilities of a museum curator. Discuss the different ways art shows can be organized, and give some specific examples of actual exhibits if possible, perhaps from the museum and gallery listings in the newspaper. Emphasize the value of having a theme, but also explain that themes can be conceived in many different ways. Many curators combine themes, such as "Nature and Photography," "African Masks," or "Ceramics from the Far East." Students need not be limited to the examples given. Ask students to think about the kind of experience they want the visitor to their art show to have. What display techniques would they use to create this experience? What kinds of information will the display provide the viewer?
If students are able to download images and print them out, have them do so. If the appropriate software is available, encourage students to create their exhibits on the computer using a presentation in Hyperstudio, Powerpoint, or other software. Once they have written introductions to their exhibits, students may construct miniature exhibits by mounting the images of their chosen works on posterboard or a classroom wall and creating a poster to advertise the exhibit.The class can then "visit" each exhibit and offer comments and critiques.
Pictures Worth a Thousand Words
Show students several photographs or prints and ask them to fill in the details about the people, places, or activities depicted. You might ask students to find old photos of their own and try to reconstruct the history or significance of those images. Discuss how paintings and pictures can capture a single moment, and, at the same time, tell an entire story from beginning to end through detail, color, shadow, and symbol. Remind students that all good stories, whether told with words or images, include setting, character(s), and the depiction of an event. Encourage students to use their imaginations as they study the pictures, but help them to stay true to the content of the works. Have them imagine themselves as participants in the visual stories, and remind them that, as observers, they are also important participants in the process of interpretation.
Once students have written their own short stories, have them present their works to the class in the form of a dramatization or a reading. Encourage their classmates to respond with questions and commentary. Alternatively, you may extend the activity by having the students draw or paint their own pictures based on the stories they have written.
Archeologist's Journal
Motivate students by asking them to discuss ancient artifacts or monuments they have seen (or seen pictures of). Remind them that many of these artifacts are known to us only because of the important work done by archaeologists. Explain that archaeology is a science of discovery as well as analysis and explanation. Archaeologists not only uncover cultural treasures and objects, but also figure out how they were used, why they were created, and what they may have meant to the people who created them. Tell students to pay close attention to detail as they write about their findings in their journals. As scientists, they must be responsible for accurate data recording. However, when it comes to explaining the significance of the objects and the students' opinions about them, encourage them to use their own words rather than copy text from the web site.
Once students have completed their worksheets, have them use the sketches or downloaded images to create a classroom exhibit called "Art of the Earliest Times." Have students display and provide factual information for each artifact. Teams of students can give brief presentations on the artifacts and their significance. Members of the class may act as a panel of curators and vote on which artifacts to keep in the classroom exhibit. This activity can also be enhanced by asking students to do additional research on the cultures and then present their findings to the class.
Visiting an Artist
Before students begin the worksheet, explore the idea of inspiration in general, and give some varied examples. Discuss the different ways works of art can emphasize ideas or messages. Ask students to consider whether the artists they are visiting have specific messages to convey or concerns to express. Encourage students to put the artists' ideas and background information into their own words rather than copying text from the screen. Generate enthusiasm by asking students to imagine themselves as successful artists. Ask them to think about what they would like to accomplish through their art. Direct them to choose for this activity those artists they most admire or find most interesting.
Once students have completed their worksheets and profiles, have them put together small portfolios of their own works. Have them include biographical information and written discussions similar to what they found on the artists' web sites. If you have the appropriate computer capabilities, your class can create a web page profiling each student.
Explore Art Schools
Discuss with students the kinds of activities and courses offered in art schools and summer art programs. Also, explain the purpose of attending such schools, and give them a sense of the career opportunities available for art school graduates. Instruct them to answer the questions on the worksheet carefully, but also encourage them to think of additional questions they may have. Guide them in the organization and expression of ideas as they work on their letters. Instruct them to revise and edit their prose carefully. Once they are familiar with several programs, you may want to generate group interest by asking them to discuss what they would look for in a program. Encourage students to begin to think about setting educational and career goals for themselves.
To give students a better idea of what is involved in the application process, ask each student to request, in writing, application materials from the school of their choice. Once these arrive, have students share the materials with their classmates and make comparisons. In addition, ask students to read their own letters to the group, and then allow the group to evaluate and discuss the merits of each letter.
Meet the Masters
The sites in this activity are highly informative. In addition to providing many examples of each artist's work, the sites also give extensive background information and descriptions of the movement(s) with which each artist is associated. Allow students enough time to process this material and to view the images of the artists' works. Encourage students to answer the questions on the worksheet in their own words. Ask them to define important terms carefully and record information accurately. If possible, supplement this activity with larger images of some of the artworks for students to view. Provide students with a structure to follow when writing their interviews. Remind them that the master's answers to their questions in the interview should reflect the facts they have learned from the web sites.
After students have completed their worksheets and reports, organize the class into groups and instruct each group to compose a short play or stage a fictional dialogue among the different artists. Students should make use of the information they have learned to give an accurate portrayal of each master. Tell students to pick which artist they want to portray, then have them act out the play or dialogue. If time and resources permit, encourage students to create their own costumes for their roles.
Cultural Treasures of the World
Discuss with students the idea of a cultural artifact and different ways in which artworks are valued. For example, the value of an object can be determined by its historical, religious, or social significance. Ask students to think of examples from their own cultural or religious backgrounds as well as examples of some of the American cultural treasures they have seen or heard about. Encourage students to find out as much as they can about the different cultures they encounter in this activity. If possible, provide additional materials or guide students to do additional research where needed. Some of the artworks or artists represented in this activity correspond to "Connections" pages in the Glencoe textbooks. Encourage students to be open-minded and conscious of the fact that cultures differ and that viewers inevitably bring their own cultural biases to new experiences. At the same time, help students find the similarities or universal qualities shared by many of these works.
Have students share their completed paragraphs with the class. Then, organize them into teams and have them plan and produce a videotape depicting a cultural tradition or cultural art form from their own community. Examples may include dance, music, or cooking, as well as artworks. Have students begin by creating a storyboard or script. If video equipment is not available, students may present their tradition in photos or by way of an actual demonstration, depending on the form of cultural expression they choose. Be sure to focus students' attention on the cultural significance of the tradition they present.
Artists' Favorite Places
To begin, discuss some of the features of landscape painting in general. You might add to the information provided on the sites by discussing in greater detail the movements and styles associated with the artists. Encourage students to write detailed responses to the questions on the worksheet. Their answers should reflect the factual information provided, but should also show the steps of art criticism. If students have difficulty making comparisons between the photos and the paintings, try demonstrating a point-by-point comparison in class. You may find it helpful to focus their attention on the elements of light, color, and shape, and the principles of movement, balance, and mood.
If possible, have students find and bring in photos or postcards of their own favorite places. Direct students to paint or draw a picture based on the actual qualities of the locale as well as the feelings or sensations they have experienced while there. Once students have completed their artworks, ask the class to interpret the mood of each picture, and have each student artist respond by explaining what he or she wanted to convey.
Critique Web Site Designs
To practice critical evaluation based on art elements and principles
First review the elements and principles of art as they are presented in the text. It may help to evaluate the design of a web page collectively before students begin on their worksheets. In addition to evaluating the visual layout and design elements of these sites, students may want to comment on sounds used or how different screens are accessed. As you focus students' attention on the artistic elements of each site, encourage them to consider the ways a web site appeals to their senses and sparks their interest. For the second part of the activity, show the class examples of student web pages before they begin to design their own. Provide guidelines and a format to follow.
If you have the appropriate technology, work with students to create a web page for the class. Have each student contribute ideas to the design of the site, and organize the class into groups responsible for separate decisions and tasks. If this follow-up activity is not feasible on the Internet, you may simply do it on paper.
Artists and WPA
Begin the activity by reading and discussing the introduction to the web site as a class. If possible, provide additional materials to support the social studies connection to the Great Depression, particularly to Roosevelt's New Deal. Showing the students larger facsimiles of Depression-era artwork would also be helpful. Guide students through the different sections of the site. Encourage discussion of unfamiliar terms and concepts. Once students have completed the worksheets, lead the class in talking about current social or historical issues and how art can effectively respond to these. Examples of responses might include local murals, musical expression, contemporary film and drama, or public sculpture.
Once students have completed their worksheets, have the class discuss their new knowledge and share their preferences. Review the different ways the artists responded to the historical and social changes of the Depression era. Then, ask students to create their own works of art in response to their personal views of historical or current social issues. Use the five subject areas of the site as possible models. For example, each student could produce a work of activist art or useful art relevant to hot topics in the school or the larger community. Have each student explain to the class the purpose or intended effect of his or her artwork.
Architectural Tour
To begin students on their building tour, guide them directly to the Search for Places button. If possible, ask students to download the images and text they select. Have them print these out and save them in a portfolio with their worksheets. Discuss the architecture of their own school to prompt students to think about the organization of space and the use of form in building design. Once they have moved on to the second web site and are viewing individual artworks, draw their attention to the actual size and location of these works. Ask students what it would be like to encounter these pieces in real life. Ask them to imagine how they would feel if they visited each place and these artworks were not present. Generate a discussion of the value or effects of art in public spaces.
Organize students into teams to plan a virtual architectural tour of their town or city. This tour should include at least three buildings. Have students research the history of each building and take special note of any artworks on display. Students can obtain photocopied images of the buildings from the local library or historical society, or they can arrange to take their own photos to be included in their presentations. Alternatively, you may ask students to design, name, and decorate on paper a new building for their town or city, such as a library, courthouse, or museum.

Can't We All Just Get Along?
We've all met them at some point in our lives. Women who proudly declare they don't get on with other women. This seems to be their conversation opener when speaking to other ladies. It's almost as if they're letting you know upfront that no friendship will blossom here, on account of your lack of a penis.
'Women are bitches and there's too much drama,' they say. This, of course, pretty much instantly lets you know that she was, most likely, the cause of the bitchiness and drama in whatever female pack she used to roll with.
These women usually fall into two categories: the tomboy or the chick who thinks she's a model. The tomboy will say she just naturally gravitated towards boys due to her rough and tumble ways as a child and had trouble relating to girls as a result. This I can understand. The model on the other hand, will claim two things; that she was the victim (excluded, picked on) when she was younger and when she got older, other women felt threatened by her beauty, she couldn't stand the cat fights, so she decided to hang with a bunch of dudes.
It is this woman who gets the extensive eye rolling and a 'bitch please!' from me. That attitude represents the worst of what women have to offer. Female friendships are not without their complexities. There isn't a woman reading this who hasn't wanted to go a few rounds in a boxing ring with one of their closest friends at some point. An underlying force in female friendships (and sometimes not so underlying) whether we like to admit it or not, is competition. From a young age, it's all 'she has longer hair than me, nicer clothes, bigger boobs, a nicer figure,' whatever the case may be. It can be a constant battle to keep our emotions in check and be a good friend.
Men on the other hand, high five each other, pound a few beers, scratch their nuts and get on with life. Oh, if only it were that simple for us.
The beautiful woman who thinks that every woman is jealous and secretly hates her, frankly, needs to get over herself. The fact is, as a beautiful woman, choosing to surround yourself with only men and having no female friends means there is no competition. And that speaks volumes. So no, it isn't who you consider to be 'lesser women' who are insecure and jealous. It is you yourself who is riddled with insecurity. Surrounding yourself with men who drool over you rather than women who might say 'your mascara's a mess and your dress is too short' is testament to that.
I have a mix of friends and I can't see making it through life without my ladies. I can see someone saying they don't get on/avoid friendships with crackheads, criminals, sociopaths, but women? There are certain things and situations that you can only hash out with your closest girlfriends. These are important relationships. Sure, difficult at times, but important nonetheless. And bypassing that so you can be the centre of attention in a pack of males, well, you're missing out. Plus men die first, so when you're 80, who's gonna be drooling over your rack?
No, you need some girlfriends, sweetie.

Thanks to the Recovery Act, every Oregonian receiving unemployment benefits saw a $25 increase in their weekly benefits. For Oregon, this meant up to $200 million in additional federal funds.
Additionally, the Recovery Act extended the time a person could file for Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) until December 31, 2009. EUC allowed for up to 33 weeks of unemployment benefits for those who exhaust their original 26-week claim. With Oregon experiencing a high unemployment rate, the state was eligible for the Extended Benefits (EB) Program. The EB Program allowed for up to 20 additional weeks of benefits for Oregonians who have exhausted their original 26-week claim and their EUC claim. There was a total of 79 weeks of benefits available through these state and federal programs. If you are not receiving unemployment benefits and believe you may be eligible, please see the answer under the question: "I lost my job, what help is available to me?"

Katy Perry's Raps To Will Smith
Katy Perry found her way to a karaoke bar on the Catalina Island off the coast of California on Monday. After a bit of liquid confidence Katy took to the mic to give a slurry attempt at Will Smith's 'Miami'.
The footage is pretty poor quality as is Katy's attempt at the 1998 hip-hop song. But hey, she's having fun!

neat little piece of history..
neat little piece of history..
And she was a hall monitor! LOL
I notice it says "Diana" not "Diane".........?????
Which one of her classmates is selling her out? Obviously someone that wasn't friends were her; no signature noted.
And $775.00? Get real.
There was a popular book back in the 80s which had lots of famous people in their yearbook photos. I can't remember the name of it...maybe "Who Were they Then" or something like that. Diane's photo was included, along with Paul Simon, Rick Nelson, and others. Of course, it was only the one shot. Still, a cheaper alternative and it was a fun book. As I recall, it didn't immediately identify the folks. You had to look up the names, or turn the page maybe.
Hey I want to know what ever happened to Lance Davis, the best dressed guy in Diane's class! A handsome dude and he got to be paired with her, at least in print!
So, the year book tells us once and for all...............it was Diana before Berry got into it all!
Diana has always been her legal name, since that is the name on her birth certificate.
Nice picture of her.
Diana was very attractive as a youngster- on top of that she was also best dressed. She just always had the looks and style.
The same typo twice? I suppose it's possible...Unless it was a typo.
I wonder if we'll ever see a name change to Beyonca or Madonne? That's probably already been covered for them.
It does seem a bit odd to me that if all her friends called her Diane ~ why would the school year book read Diana? I'm sure the editors didn't go checking legal names.
Children are enrolled in school using their legal names, not nicknames.
An "e" or an "a" at the end of her first name matters little to me. If I ever have the pleasure of being introduced to her I would, out of respect, address her as Miss Ross. It is the way I was brought up.
in the early years she ALWAYS reffered to herself as "Diane Ross'', I think her introductions on the Copa LP she says something like "and I'm Diane Ross". I know back in the day when I heard her speak she used Diane and I heard back then that her birth name was Diana.Her old friends will always think of her as Diane.
This is funny. Just last week I found and ordered my sophomore year College yearbook on Ebay..........for $49! LOL!
Its the same damn name.
After all these years some Ross fans still fall for it.
After all these years Ross haters still look pathetic calling her that.
Did someone actually type out the following to prove a point:
On "Heigh-Ho", both Mary and Cindy refer to her as "Diane":
"Isn't that Diane?"
"It IS Diane!"
Anyway, on their first album "Meet the Supremes" how was she billed?
I had to laugh while typing this cause I know that hundreds of fans on this forum, all went to school with her, or are from her neighborhood where EVERYONE knows her "real" name, right?
If you are going to try and call me out on a public forum, I'd prefer that you grow a set and actually use my name, rather than refer to me as "someone". I posted it. MARY With a "y" BREWSTER. Because apparently SDF is all about the "truth" and in this case, that is EXACTLY what I was posting. Or maybe you haven't heard the song? Simply stated, she is called "DianE" in the song. Even I can't make that shit up.
To quote Penny, "an "e" or an "a" at the end of her first name matters little to me." It matters little to me as well. But if we are going to have this discussion for the ten thousanth time, let's not make things look so one sided. So my post is valid and warranted.
Your bullying tactics don't scare me. I have fought off much bigger and grander than you. SkoolTHAT.
Furthermore, please do not EVER put me in the same group as the "Ross-Haters". You do not know me, therefore, you have no idea who I love or who I hate.
Yep! ! ! ! !
Actually, I probably DID go to school with Diana. I was attending Cass Tech during the years she was there. I never knew her though.
And.......I bet you didn't know her name, know she was wearing Mary's clothes, and didn't know what a cape was then or in 1983 when she wore one!
I wonder what she thinks about people going on and on over what her name was or wasn't. She's gonna get big headed again soon.
No one ever talks about me being Bobby when I was a kid, Bob to my relatives, Rob to just about everyone and Robert to some. Whaaaaaaa
I guess I was pretty much in the dark, Bobby..er...Rob.
Ralph, I'm just glad you didn't wear Mary's clothes too! It seems it was the thing to do.
I don't think the clothes in question even existed at that time, Penny. But if they did, I wouldn't wear them.
Too bad you didn't know Diane/Diana Ross Ralph, you could have told her to stop raiding Mary's closet and wear her own clothes.
One of my best friends name is Diana but we always called her Diane.
Girlfriends always lend each other clothes. However, it is crazy to think that Mary loaned Diana a whole wardrobe. I know Diana had a job and sometimes made her own clothes. Did Mary have a job as a teenager prior to signing with Motown records? Does anyone know if Mary also won Best Dressed at her school?
Oh I see .well thats good to know that Diana borrowed Marys clothes rather than swiped them from Marys closet when Mary wasnt looking. Does Mary mention in her book if Diane returned the clothes laundered and ironed? Or did Diane return the clothes all dirty and wrinkled and soiled and torn?
A friend of mine that went to High School with Mary Wilson (he also knew Florence very well and was tight with Mary's sister Cat) said that Mary resembled a fashion model in the way she looked and dressed all through school. In his words, she looked like an "Ebony Fashion Fair Model". Only job I know she had was at a record store as a teenager. Everyone that knew Mary in Detroit describes her in a similar way when in comes to her thing for clothes, etc.
LoL. Save it for someone that cares.
Let's be cool here. I don't need any grief.
Ralph with all due respect. What exactly did I say wrong? Tell me, exactly what the "crime" is? I am not the one that went on a tirade. So why single me out for this? If you are going to moderate, then be fair. Maybe this is not the job for you anymore. I mean any moderator of a place called "Soulful DETROIT" that even entertains the idea of cutting out the "motown" section, needs to take a break. Talk about cutting off your nose despite your face.
With all due respect to you, all I see is a rather disrespectful " save it for someone who cares". I moderate as fairly as possible. You've been around here long enough to realize that. and if I choose to 86 the Motown room it will be my decision.
With that, I will end my part in this discussion. I don't want you to be overwhelmed.
Ralph- I have been in your corner for years, but I am sad to say that I am starting to understand some of the complaints regarding your moderating skills. It was that poster who accused me of bullying. Told me to grow a pair, and then had flash backs to all the people they had to fight in life. HUH? I don't care about that shit and I said so. So that is a crime? Just because I made reference to a "previous poster" and didn't mention their FAKE name/alter ego/stage name- I get attacked? Really?
I'll consider the conversation ended, Skool. Peace.
Marvin was stoned for that too, couldn't tell an "a" from an "e", a cape from a jacket, and said "war is hell, when will it end, but it's just the girls"
Great shot, Robb.

In many ways, the second half of the Bamboozle California felt like the initial mid-'90s Warped Tour jaunts — before everything got too huge.
With its moderate turnout and three live music stages, the annual West Coast edition of the Jersey-based event equaled a more relaxed experience for those in attendance. Some people have complained about the move from Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine to Angel Stadium, but the new home had several positives: comfortable restrooms and food vendors without long lines, multiple shaded areas during a hot afternoon, relatively easy access between stages and less of a traffic bottleneck.
And though Saturday's lineup was a bit stronger overall, Sunday's roster boasted three impressive reunions (headliner Something Corporate, pictured above, plus Far and Piebald) as well quite a few pleasant surprises, including sets from Never Shout Never, Anarbor and O.C. newcomer the Colourist.

Sizing for Mountain Hardwear Monkey Woman Jacket
I live in a town where the weather changes several times through out the day from sun to showers to snow all within an hours time. This jacket wears great with these climate changes. Never too hot or too cold, the jacket is perfect.
Jen Brown
Leavonworth, WA
This is the best jacket, ever. The fleece is amazing, it's great for all sorts of weather, and it looks great on. I get compliments from my friends on it all the time! I'm 5'5 and 125 lbs and bought the small -- it fits perfectly. Just the right amount of room to wear a long-sleeved shirt if necessary. You must buy this!!
I have three of these now. I love them. I do not like to wear hoods very often so the lack of a hood doesn't bother me in the slightest. I love the style of the jacket. The waist is perfect, doesn't ride up and isn't too baggy when you wear the right size. My upper arms fit tightly in some coats and this style sleeve provides extra room where needed without being too long. This jacket is warm, comfortable to no end. The only downside is I'm scared to wash them very often as one of them melted a wee bit in the dryer on the interior of the jacket. Plus I'm always apprehensive when washing my fleece as I don't want to lose the smooth plushness of them.

Organizational rankings and top 10 prospects per team
February 16, 2011 Front Office Focus A Different Take on the Versteeg Trade
by Ryan Popilchak
Yesterday, Corey Pronman provided a great analysis of the Kris Versteeg deal here on Hockey Prospectus.
However, I have a different view. It's not that Corey and I would use different statistics to compare the value of the deal, it's in how we interpret what those numbers mean to each team at this point in the season, and to the future of the two franchises. Corey has a much better knowledge of prospects and farm systems than I do, but I thought it might be interesting reading to present opposing analysis of the trade.
The Impact on the Leafs
Give Brian Burke some credit. He never stops trying to improve his team. Unfortunately, by trading winger Kris Versteeg for picks, he seems to have made a mistake.
While the Leafs moving defenseman Francois Beauchemin made a fair bit of sense to me, I really don't understand the Versteeg deal. By moving Beauchemin, the Leafs were able to get both an NHL player (Anaheim forward Joffrey Lupul) and a decent prospect in defenseman Jake Gardiner. Lupul has definitely underperformed versus his $4.2 million cap hit, but has scored 20 goals in three different seasons during his NHL career. At 27 years old, he still should have three or four decent seasons in him. Taking his cap hit was the price to pay for getting a prospect like Gardiner, but the salary is almost a straight swap with Beauchemin's. I can live with this type of deal.
The problem is, many are speculating that the acquisition of Lupul made Kris Versteeg expendable. This is just speculation, but I sure hope it wasn't the reason Burke decided to move the young winger.
I can understand Burke's desire to stockpile prospects and draft picks. The Leafs have been outside of the playoff picture for a while now and need to gather as much talent as they possibly can. Given the fact that they're 10 points out of the final playoff spot in the East, they need to start thinking about next season and beyond. The problem I see, however, is that Burke just gave up on a talented 24-year-old winger with a $3.1 million cap hit, who is a restricted free agent at the end of next season. Not only is he young, but he's proven himself against NHL competition.
Teams that want to build through youth still need established NHLers on the team. Prospects can't be thrown into the deep end against the National Hockey League's best. It's usually better to give them a year or so in a developmental league and to introduce them into the NHL with softer ice time to begin with. In order to do this, the regular NHLers on the team have to be more than just filler. Established players who are young and are on good value contracts fit the bill better than most. Versteeg satisfies both of those requirements.
Kris Versteeg is on pace for his third straight 20-goal season in the NHL. In his third season, he is a known quantity. Draft picks are unknown quantities. They could turn into the next Pavel Datsyuk, or they could turn into the next Chris Dingman. There is risk involved. Versteeg represents very little risk after 223 regular season games and 51 playoff games at the NHL level. We have a good idea what kind of player he is.
Corey did a great job of outlining Versteeg's value versus his contract. He is worth somewhere between his 9.6 GVT three season average and the 11.5 GVT worth he averaged in Chicago. His contract dollars only require a GVT of 7.8 to break even. On top of that, the first round pick the Leafs got in return has an average peak value of approximately 5.0 GVT. Unless the Leafs can hit big on a late first round pick, they're getting less value than they're giving up.
One reason that teams need draft picks in the salary cap era is the value they potentially represent. The combination of entry-level contracts (ELCs) and restricted free agent (RFA) contracts give the squad several years of service at a reasonable salary and any performance gleaned above this contract value is gravy for the team. The tradeoff is the risk that the player won't ever develop into a regular NHL player. Versteeg is already a regular NHL player and is a RFA after another year and half on his current contract. That represents several more years of value.
To summarize, the Leafs have given up an established NHL player who produces 9-12 GVT per season at the age of 24 and they're getting back a gamble that produces on average 5 GVT. That doesn't sound like a win to me.
The Impact on the Flyers
Corey's viewpoint was that by dealing another first round pick, the Flyers have further depleted an already barren farm system. He's right. I just don't think it's as important for this team as others in the league.
Here's why I'm not as concerned. Take a look at the core players for the Flyers, their age, current GVT (through 54 games) and the year their contract runs out. The stars denote RFAs at the end of the deal.
Philadelphia's solid core of forwards Player Age Current GVT Last year of contract Jeff Carter 26 13.5 2022 Claude Giroux 23 12.8 2015* Mike Richards 26 11.3 2020 Daniel Briere 33 10.6 2015 Ville Leino 27 8.1 2011 Scott Hartnell 28 6.8 2013 James Van Riemsdyk 21 4.6 2012* Kris Versteeg 24 3.8 2012*
There probably isn't another team in the league who can boast a lineup of forwards with this quality down to the third line. And the only one of them who likely won't be back next year is Ville Leino. That said, Versteeg is three years younger and has a similar talent level as Leino. The other fact to note about this collection of forwards is that Briere is the only player over 28 years old. This group is unlikely to suffer a sharp decline any time soon, with players like JVR, Giroux and Versteeg still likely to improve.
The team may need some defensive prospects in the near future given the age of Chris Pronger and Kimmo Timonen, but one of them could possibly be dealt in the summer for prospects if the Flyers wanted. Moving one of the defensemen could also provide cap relief, as could sending Briere or Hartnell elsewhere.
The Flyers definitely gave up some of their future for a push now, but they didn't get a pure rental in Versteeg. He is on contract through next year and his RFA status at the end of the deal means the Flyers still have a lot of control over his geographical fate.
There are some deals that work out as a win-win for both teams. Unfortunately for Brian Burke, this isn't one of those deals. In my mind, the Leafs gave up on a proven young NHL player for what essentially works out to be a draft pick that at best might work out as well as the player they just gave up.

I've gotten a few e-mails on this topic, so I better clear up what my message was yesterday. I don't believe Toronto got good value and Philly did not. I think the direction for Toronto was good and for Philly was bad, but Philly beat Toronto in value of the deal. Toronto should have gotten a better future asset, even though the dice roll may end up being a player of Versteeg's stature or better, it's still a chance and not a good one. However it's the kind of move they should make. Philly got great value on a tail-end first, but it's the kind of move they should not be making given the status of their organization beyond the NHL level.
Agreed that value-wise Philly wins this one. Also agreed that the direction for Toronto is the correct one, although it's once again ironic that it's the exact opposite direction of the Kessel trade. Corey, while I understand that Philly is light on draft picks and prospects, their current position makes a run at the Cup too tantalizing to give up.
It's really not this one deal that irks me, it's a culmination of the last few years. Dating back to 2008 they have only one prospect in their system still that was picked after the 80th selection, which was a 67th overall pick Marc-Andre Bourdon. Some teams like Detroit or NJ have been able to build good systems with mid-round picks, Philly has not. They are in the worst shape of any NHL team when it comes to future projection. I agree it helps their run at the Cup this year, but I just don't like the situation and how much the organization has undervalued draft picks.
It is a little odd considering that there current squad is anchored by two very good draft picks, Mike Richards and Jeff Carter. That said, I just liked the way they went for it this year, but with a young guy who isn't a pure rental. They've got him for a lot longer. The best thing they could do in the off-season to restock would be to move a guy like Briere, Hartnell or Timmonen for a prospect but obviously that's not easy.

[NOTE: I couldnt find the map form thing in the requests so feel free to move this topic if needed]
Wouldnt it be cool if someone made a Figure Eight Jump race? If it was made there will have to be vechicles that could collide with other multiplayer users so it would be more fun :) If you could create it or have a friend that could please do, Imagine all the racing and crashing and FUN this would bring to the world.
If you could make this but do not know what it looks like it is a Large Figure 8 with a Jump in the middle, wide spaced between ramps so Crash more likely to happen. To help Turning do something so the inner part of the road is on ground level and outer road is in air, like This ---> \ <--- but at 30-45 Degrees.
If made. Fans (including me) of Figure 8 Jump Races Will surely owe the creator one. As for the car, see if possible to Completely Collide with Other Multiplayer users, Thanks.

ST. LOUIS — Forever linked as the St. Louis Blues' two first-round picks in the 2010 draft, Vladimir Tarasenko and Jaden Schwartz have found special ways to introduce themselves to the NHL.
Tarasenko scored two goals on his first two NHL shots Saturday --just as Schwartz did last season. Schwartz's came in separate games, but the feats are still remarkable.
"I was a little nervous before the game, but now I'm happy to be here," Tarasenko said after the game. "I want to say thanks to my teammates for their help. They help me so much."
The pair of promising young forwards were two of eight home-grown first-round draft picks in the lineup for the Blues.
"Yeah it's cool," Schwartz said. "I met him at the draft and it's kind of neat no that we're here playing together. I know he's real excited and I am, too."
Tarasenko displayed a lot of that excitement after becoming the 14th player in Blues history to score a goal in his NHL debut. He broke in alone and beat Red Wings goalie Jimmy Howard with a quick wrist shot.
Tarasenko added to the magic with his second goal of the night on his second shot just 29 seconds into the second period.
The 21-year-old winger had 14 goals and 31 points in 31 games in the Kontinental Hockey League, which featured current and former NHL talent along with the top players in Russia.
"I don't think this is a big deal for Tarasenko as far as the competition; he's played against men for two years," Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said. "His adjustment is going to be the ice surface. You can see him; he's catching himself all the time because it's such a different environment. It's such a different game in Europe, especially the way they play in the KHL. He's going to have to adjust to that.
"Schwartz is a different player. He can come and play up and down your lineup and still be effective, where Tarasenko needs to play that top-nine role."
Schwartz, playing left wing on a line with Patrik Berglund and Chris Stewart, won the job with a strong showing during training camp.
He was given the good news in a Friday meeting with Blues General Manager Doug Armstrong.
"I didn't know what to expect, obviously they had quite a few guys in camp so I was a little nervous," Schwartz said. "He said congrats."
Schwartz couldn't participate in the morning skate Saturday while waiting for Chris Porter to clear waivers. Schwartz's teammates couldn't resist a few playful jabs about his "optional skate," but he admitted he would much rather have been on the ice.
Schwartz's training camp performance came on the heels of a successful run at minor-league Peoria, where the former first-round pick was able to play important minutes and impact roles during the lockout.
"I was playing all year, (so) playing in the AHL helped me a lot," said Schwartz, who had nine goals and 19 points in 33 games with the Rivermen. "I was playing a lot of minutes and there's a lot of guys who played in the NHL who were down in the AHL this year.
"When you match up against them it can give you confidence if you're playing well. I was glad I got that opportunity this year and I felt like it helped me going to camp."
Hitchcock said hard work will go a long way toward determining the ice time given to the rookie forwards.
"If you're going to have a team, you just can't give a young guy a spot and then you've got guys waiting who are good players," Hitchcock said. "Not having success is one thing, not working is whole other animal. All we want from them is to work and if they work, their skills are going to take over. If they work and keep up that's all we're looking for."
Worth noting
The Blues' opening night lineup did not include veteran forwards Jamie Langenbrunner and Matt D'Agostini and defenseman Jeff Woywitka.
"We'd like to get a read on three or four young guys that are up there right now, see what they look like and then probably settle in after Game 3 or 4," Hitchcock said. "Obviously Jamie's going to be there, but Reavo's had a hell of a camp. He's played very well, he's shown the ability to be really a lot more than a one-dimensional player."

Jake Shimabukuro
Ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro has taken the four-string, two-octave instrument to places no one could have imagined back in the golden years of Don Ho, ranging freely across the music spectrum from jazz, blues, and funk to bluegrass, classical, and folk with the ease of a musician fully in command of the possibilities of his chosen instrument. Born November 3, 1976 in Honolulu, Hawaii, Shimabukuro was given his first ukulele lesson by his mother when he was only four years old. Fascinated by the uke, he eventually began playing regularly at a local Honolulu café. He was a founding member of Pure Heart, and played on the trio's first two albums before leaving to form Colon. In 2001, Shimabukuro began his solo career, releasing Elaine Maru (In Memory Of) on Surfside Records that same year. He signed with Epic in 2002 and released Sunday Morning on the label a year later, following it with Skyline in 2003. In 2005 he found an international distributor for his own label, Hitchhike Records, and began issuing his own CDs, including Crosscurrent, Dragon, My Life, and the much lauded Gently Weeps, which included a haunting version of George Harrison's "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." Shimabukuro has completely rewritten the book on the possibilities of the ukulele, and his skill on the instrument attracted the ear and attention of Béla Fleck who has used Shimabukuro as both an opening act and as a sit-in guest with the Flecktones. Shimabukuro's 2011 release, Peace, Love, Ukulele, topped Billboard's World Albums chart, and he followed it with Grand Ukulele, produced by Alan Parsons with orchestrations by Kip Winger (and recorded live with no overdubs), a year later in the fall of 2012. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi

Would of loved to hear Shimabukuro uke with the voice of "IZ". That sound of the the islands pulls at your heart and majesty pleases the soul.
Saw him this week at the Florida Theater in Jacksonville , FL. How did God fit so much talent, beauty, and LOVE in one human? Truly one of the most amazing artists/musi c i a n s EVER!
He came up under my Spanish Guitar station. I haven't really heard it with a ukelele. Very interesting. And then he throws in a little Santa action to spice things up even more. Quite talented.
I lived on Oahu for 7 years and traveled the outer island frequently, attending many concerts to listen and experience the many rich cultural music forms Hawaii-based musicians and/or local halau artists have produced and perform. I fell in love with it all, especially slack key guitar. Jake is so masterful at capturing and playing the uke in musical idioms that transcend the sound of the islands but music that is classical and lyrical appealing to all who love the music of strings.
Just saw Jake last night in Illinois. Wow. What virtuosity; and so incredibly humble. Amazing.
Jake is amazing, and inspiring. :) Please continue to do what you do, beautiful ukulele musician.
Just saw him last night at the Birchmire in Alexandria VA. Amazing talent! I love his version of Bohemian Rhapsody and the way he plays he plays the Ukelele like a rock star!
I just saw,listened and was amazed by Jake Shimabukuro at the Kravis Center in West Palm Beach. Wonderful talent and humble too. An entertainer, showman and nice young man. Congrats to his baby mama for their new son. A great evening. Thank you.
i just love jake shimabukuro so much, i wish that some day i can play like him or even meet him in person.
After the first 10 seconds or so of listening to Jake's music, I looked up at the screen to see who in the heck this was. Way talented. Even more amazing to know he was playing the Uke.
Wonderful, never heard the uke like that!
Your birthday is 4 days before mine! November 7, 1976. What amazing talent you have been blessed with. Keep it up, thank you.
Ukeleles used to seem so limited...Ja k e found its heart and soul.
An amazing talent!
I saw him live at Humbodlt State University in Arcata, California. For 1 1/2 hours he entertained my family, my two young daugthers, and my old parents. His range is impressive and it is beyond obvious that he has quite the gift of music. In addition, he a very nice person who took the time to sign people ukeles and talk. Mahalo, Jake! You deserve the rocket to stardom!
I was born on Oahu, and grew up around Hawaiian music, but this is taking things to amazing places. WOW
Is his Uke a tenor or spprano? I'd sure like to learn.. Have violin experience, but not much guitar...
This whole album is great.
Jake is to the Uke what Dave Matthews Band is to the FIDDLE!! lol ... IMO... In a laidback Hawaiian good ol boy kind of way
rare, precious, beautiful.
Woo hoo! Artist is an over used word these days but this guy is definitely an artist. Fine stuff from a consumate musician.
There's Jake, then there's everyone else.
Dean B. here on Daves computer . Jake is to the uke what Bela Fleck is to the banjo.
