In Brief
- Neuroscientists have long thought that the brain's circuits are turned off when a person is at rest.
- Imaging experiments, however, have shown that there is a persistent level of background activity.
- This default mode, as it is called, may be critical in planning future actions.
- Miswiring of brain regions involved in the default mode may lead to disorders ranging from Alzheimer's to schizophrenia.
Imagine you are almost dozing in a lounge chair outside, with a magazine on your lap. Suddenly, a fly lands on your arm. You grab the magazine and swat at the insect. What was going on in your brain after the fly landed? And what was going on just before? Many neuroscientists have long assumed that much of the neural activity inside your head when at rest matches your subdued, somnolent mood. In this view, the activity in the resting brain represents nothing more than random noise, akin to the snowy pattern on the television screen when a station is not broadcasting. Then, when the fly alights on your forearm, the brain focuses on the conscious task of squashing the bug. But recent analysis produced by neuroimaging technologies has revealed something quite remarkable: a great deal of meaningful activity is occurring in the brain when a person is sitting back and doing nothing at all.
It turns out that when your mind is at rest—when you are daydreaming quietly in a chair, say, asleep in a bed or anesthetized for surgery—dispersed brain areas are chattering away to one another. And the energy consumed by this ever active messaging, known as the brain's default mode, is about 20 times that used by the brain when it responds consciously to a pesky fly or another outside stimulus. Indeed, most things we do consciously, be it sitting down to eat dinner or making a speech, mark a departure from the baseline activity of the brain default mode.

My goal was to primarily observe, understand and research the meaning of "transformation", which should ultimately lead to a discovery of a new product. Süssmann's goal has been to ultimately create an object that symbolizes and captures the meaning of "Transformation" and creates the user a space to retreat from the hustle of daily live. Comments

The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has approved a definition and description of a new category of provider agency, Critical Access Behavioral Health Agency (CABHA). The CABHA is designed to ensure that critical services are delivered by a clinically competent organization with appropriate medical oversight and the ability to deliver a continuum of services. The CABHA will move the public system over time to a more coherent service delivery model that reduces clinical fragmentation at the local level and begins to prepare the provider community for the changes that will be required in a waiver environment.

During his March 1 appearance on The Ellen Show, Justin Bieber received a rather extraordinary birthday gift from his manager: a brand new car. But not just any car, an eco-friendly sportscar known as a Fisker Karma and valued around $102,000. Not a bad deal for turning 18, although a gift like that kind of dwarfs earning the right to vote.
This particular car is one of the rarest, environmentally-friendly cars in the world. It contains an ""Eco-Chic"" interior, which uses no animal products of any kind and features wood found from renewable resources like bamboo and logs salvaged from forest fires. In other words, it's extremely helpful to the environment compared to your average pollution-heavy vehicle.
However, it's insanely expensive, which explains why very few people own one. It's even rare among celebrity circles. Other than Bieber, actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Ashton Kutcher can also be seen cruising around in their go-green hot rods.
DiCaprio has earned a reputation as a noted environmental activist and philanthropist. In fact, in 2010 he donated more than $1 million to the Wildlife Conservation Society. And as for Kutcher, he's equally as vocal about the importance of being ""green,"" and has previously owned several Lexus hybrid sedans and a Prius.
It's just hard to believe something so attractive can be so good for the environment...and the cars aren't too bad either.

Product Reviews
Tuscan Semi-Flush Ceiling Fixture from the Diablo Collection
beautiful and classic
When we had our house built we thought the upgraded lighting fixtures were overpriced, so two years later we're finally getting around to replacing the basic fixtures we chose. This almost-chandelier fit perfectly in our foyer, and distinguishes the area very nicely. Even though it came from a different design family from our flush mount fixtures, it blends very well with the overall decor. When lit, the light scatters in a beautiful pattern. It took very little time for my husband to install it. Tip: the light bulbs have a B base (smaller than a regular bulb), which we did not know until we received the fixture.
February 27, 2010
Good Choice
We purchased one of these fixtures and then decided to order another. Its very good looking and we're very pleased with our decision! We may even put two more in our upstairs hallway.

It's midnight on the snow covered 395 and your turbo charged climbing partner hits repeat on the Justin Bieber song... again.
Bishop, Joshua Tree, Las Vegas, even the local climbing areas like Yosemite, Sonora, and Tahoe reside a few hours from the Bay Area and the Touchstone climbing gyms. The climbing in California requires a serious amount of driving. To avoid co-pilot homicide when Bieber sings the same song for the hundredth time, here is a helpful survival guide.
Carpooling to the crag puts wear and tire on the driver's vehicle. Make sure to compensate the driver. Some climbers ignore the cost of gas for the sake of having a partner. Other times, climbers want a pound of blood for a ride to the crag. Discuss gas terms and compensation prior to leaving. Also, on longer drives discuss how the driving will be split.
Be careful driving after climbing. An epic unplanned bivy in Yosemite, a long day of bouldering, or a last pitch in the dusk can tire even the strongest hardman. The physical exertion of climbing makes late night driving difficult. Leave early and be prepared. Posting Instagram pictures or updating Facebook while driving significantly increases the chances of an accident. Don't do it.
Know the route. The drive to Bishop can be made in a variety of ways with different roads being closed due to snow during the winter months. The highways through Tahoe can be covered in ice and a long southern approach may need to be made. Watch the weather on the roads before leaving. Leaving during certain hours of the day can lead to traffic in different areas.
Spending a lot of time with anyone can be challenging. Make sure to have personal time for yourself and allow your partner their alone time.
Have Fun The most important part of any climbing trip means having fun.

Nuclear power supplies a sixth of the world's electricity. Along with hydropower (which supplies slightly more than a sixth), it is the major source of "carbon-free" energy today. The technology suffered growing pains, seared into the public's mind by the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island accidents, but plants have demonstrated remarkable reliability and efficiency recently. The world's ample supply of uranium could fuel a much larger fleet of reactors than exists today throughout their 40- to 50-year life span.
With growing worries about global warming and the associated likelihood that greenhouse gas emissions will be regulated in some fashion, it is not surprising that governments and power providers in the U.S. and elsewhere are increasingly considering building a substantial number of additional nuclear power plants. The fossil-fuel alternatives have their drawbacks. Natural gas is attractive in a carbon-constrained world because it has lower carbon content relative to other fossil fuels and because advanced power plants have low capital costs. But the cost of the electricity produced is very sensitive to natural gas prices, which have become much higher and more volatile in recent years. In contrast, coal prices are relatively low and stable, but coal is the most carbon-intensive source of electricity. The capture and sequestration of carbon dioxide, which will add significantly to the cost, must be demonstrated and introduced on a large scale if coal-powered electricity is to expand significantly without emitting unacceptable quantities of carbon into the atmosphere. These concerns raise doubts about new investments in gas- or coal-powered plants.

text: Arthur Schawlow Born May 5 1921 - Died Apr 28 1999 Masers and Maser Communications System Laser Patent Number(s) 2,929,922 Inducted 1996 Arthur L. Schawlow was co-inventor of the laser. He worked with Charles H. Townes, who was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 1976. Schawlow and Townes were seeking ways to extend the maser principle of amplifying electromagnetic waves into the shorter wavelengths of infrared and visible light. They published a proposal for the laser in a 1958 issue of Physical Review and received a patent for it in 1960. By the end of the 1960s, eye surgeons were already routinely using lasers, taking advantage of the fact that they can be made minutely small and precisely focused. In 1961, Schawlow became professor of physics at Stanford University. It was in 1981 that Schawlow received the Nobel Prize in physics for his work in laser spectroscopy. Invention Impact Today, the laser is prevalent in many areas, including the medical, defense and communications fields. Inventor Bio Schawlow was born in Mount Vernon, New York, and went on to attend the University of Toronto, graduating with a bachelor's degree in physics and mathematics in 1941. During the war, while teaching physics to military personnel at the university, he earned his master's degree. In 1949, Schawlow received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Toronto. While doing postdoctoral research at Columbia University he met Charles Townes, and their long collaboration on microwave spectroscopy began. Schawlow was also a recipient of the Nobel Prize in physics. |

"I was supposed to be somewhere else today, but when I was told there were 100 new jobs in St. Clair County, I said, 'I want to go there,'" Bentley said.
The governor was one of more than 100 local and state officials and area residents who attended the ceremony. Nufab Rebar LLC is a fabricator of concrete reinforcing steel and related products.
"This project reflects the importance of state and local partnerships in attracting new jobs and economic development to Alabama," Bentley said. "We have worked hard to create a positive business climate, and we are pleased that the state of Alabama could play a role in bringing new jobs to St. Clair County. Further, we thank Nufab Rebar for the company's investment in the state, and we look forward to a long-term, positive relationship with the company."
Bentley said as he travels across the United States and the world to recruit industry, the people he speaks with talk about the cooperative effort they find throughout Alabama.
"What I learned through the tornadoes is that everything is local," he said. "You can't do it on a state level if the local level is not cooperative. Industries want to come to Alabama because people work together – people care about each other here."
Bentley said the creation of 100 new jobs in a town of 3,000 is just as significant as the creation of 5,000 jobs in Mobile or Huntsville.
"I don't care if it's just 10 jobs. If someone tells me, I'm going to try to come," he said.
David Camozzi, president of Eastern Operations for Harris Rebar, said he flew in from Canada to attend the groundbreaking and was blown away by the attendance.
"We are delighted to grow this company. It's a personal challenge to grow this business in Riverside," he said.
Camozzi said the company plans to hire 50 employees within the first three years.
"We are projected to have 80 employees in five years, but would be happy to go to 100 jobs," he said.
Dennis Swinney, Nufab Rebar area manager, said all of the people at Nufab Rebar are excited to be building the new facility in Riverside.
"We looked long and hard to find a new home," he said. "This really felt like home. We will begin construction of a fabrication facility that will create more than 80 new jobs. The new facility will fabricate rebar for use in reinforced concrete construction projects throughout Alabama and its surrounding states. We worked very closely with Riverside Mayor Rusty Jessup, the St. Clair County Economic Development Council, St. Clair County officials and other city staff, and appreciate the assistance and support they have provided for this project.'
Alabama Department of Commerce Secretary Greg Canfield said securing up to 80 new jobs for Riverside and for St. Clair County is significant.
"We appreciate Nufab Rebar's confidence in Alabama's business climate," he said. "We stand ready to work with the company to help it prosper in Alabama for years to come."
St. Clair County Commission Chairman Stan Batemon said this event was a long time in coming.
"We are very thrilled, not only for everyone in Riverside, but for all the St. Clair County citizens," he said. "Here, instead of pulling each other apart, we've learned the lesson of keeping together. We would like to thank Mayor Jessup, the EDC staff and the Alabama Department of Commerce for all their hard work in bringing this project to fruition. I'd also like to thank Sen. Del Marsh and Rep. Randy Wood for their hard work."
Marsh said St. Clair County can accomplish a lot of things because people work together.
"Today you see mayors from other towns celebrating this for Riverside," he said. "You don't see that happen everywhere."
St. Clair County Economic Development Council Executive Director Don Smith said the Nufab Rebar project is already having positive effects on Riverside in the form of infrastructure grants and direct revenue from the company for the benefit of the community.
Smith said because of new job creation, Riverside was granted a $1 million industrial access grant from the Alabama Industrial Access Road & Bridge Program for road improvements. These improvements will provide safe and suitable access to the site for the company and surrounding users. The city also has a pending grant through the Economic Development Administration for a future public rail spur that the company will utilize.
"Nufab Rebar is a quality company and will have an incredible impact on Riverside going forward," he said.
Jessup said Friday's ceremony was the first time a seated governor has come to Riverside.
"This is the greatest day Riverside has seen," he said. "The announcement of Nufab Rebar in Riverside is a monumental occasion for our community. Not only is this company creating jobs in our city, it is also creating additional potential for growth.'
Jessup said it took several years to make the project happen.
"The county, the EDC and the Alabama Department of Commerce have walked alongside us in the recruitment process, and we feel that the decision to commit to constructing in Riverside along with the accrual of the $1 million grant from the Industrial Access Road & Bridge Program, which is the largest amount of grant money ever received by this community, will move us toward our brighter future," he said. "We appreciate Nufab and the big commitment they have made, and will support them and help make them successful."

Campaign complaint dropped against Steve McMichael in Romeoville mayor's race
By bob okon email@example.com February 20, 2013 4:11PM
Updated: March 23, 2013 6:17AM
Romeoville mayoral candidate Steve McMichael said Thursday that an election complaint against his campaign was part of an effort to "besmirch" his reputation.
Incumbent Mayor John Noak in turn said he wants a series of debates with McMichael to focus on issues.
The two are the only candidates in a unique campaign that features McMichael, a former Bears football player, against Noak, who contends his opponent is getting undue media attention because of his status as a player in the 1985 Superbowl team.
"I would be very happy to debate Mr. McMichael on actual issues rather than having him call press conferences on these little side issues," Noak said.
McMichael used the occasion of his victory in the election challenge to contend his reputation is under attack.
"They're trying to besmirch my name — besmirch me, trying to get people to think, 'I'm not going to vote for him,'" McMichael said.
The actual election complaint may have gone largely unnoticed, but for McMichael and his campaign drawing attention to it.
McMichael on Wednesday issued a news release announcing that the complaint had been withdrawn and followed up Thursday with a press conference to discuss the matter some more.
"I had to attain legal counsel to defend myself on this — these frivolous charges," he said. "I guess that's politics as usual."
The complaint was brought by Village Trustee Kenneth Griffin, who contended that McMichael's campaign had not filed the necessary paperwork to report contributions and spending. Griffin withdrew the complaint after a preliminary hearing.
Griffin said he withdrew the complaint because he did not want to spend the time and money to pursue it further and contended he had made his point.
McMichael's attorney said the complaint was withdrawn after an election board officer at a preliminary hearing repeatedly said there was no substance to the charges. Attorney Lisa Marie Raucci said McMichael's campaign simply had not yet reached the spending threshold at which paperwork needed to be filed before Griffin filed his complaint.
Griffin acknowledged talking with Noak before filing the complaint. Griffin also used the same attorney that the mayor had used when he called for equal air time while McMichael was doing a sports radio show on ESPN before Bears games. McMichael was taken off of the air before the last Bears game of the season.
Noak dismissed the claim that Griffin's complaint was an attempt to sully McMichael's reputation.
"In this day and age, it's not unusual for people to keep an eye on the way we (candidates) are collecting contributions and spending money," Noak said.
At his press conference, McMichael did talk about other issues, questioning why people's property taxes are going up while their home values are falling and why Romeoville residents face automatic annual increases in water bills.
"I don't see why there has to be a mandatory hike in the water bills in this town," McMichael said.
Noak said the hike was put in place on a gradual basis over 10 years to avoid the sharper increases that were done in other communities to fund their water systems. He noted that McMichael, who rented a Romeoville apartment in April, did not live in town when the village decided to implement the 10-year plan.
"We saw other communities go up anywhere from 25 percent to 90 percent," Noak said.
As for property taxes, Noak said the village government portion of the tax bill actually has gone down the last two years, and the city even has been able to rebate $20 to taxpayers.

Let's go to the boondocks!
I grew up in Kingsville, Texas, with my wise old grandmother. Even though Kingsville is the headquarters for the King Ranch, one of the largest ranches in the world with 825,000 acres, the population is only 26,000. It was 25,000 when I was growing up in the 1960s. It got as high as 29,900 in the 1980 census.
People from Corpus Christi, current population of 305,000, considered Kingsville to be out in the boondocks. And we were.
As I was exploring south-central San Diego County yesterday, I realized that people of the boondocks here, and today, are different from people of the boondocks in Kingsville, and yesterday. I could tell I was near, or in, the boondocks when things started making little to no sense to me, such as these two signs on the last two buildings at the end of the paved road:
I thought that the overly rich who can afford RV's and boats would have enough land to keep their RV on, and could keep the boat at one of the many marinas we have here in San Diego. People in the boondocks certainly should have enough land. And indoor storage? I was puzzled.
And copart? I was thinking cop art, but I really don't have a clue.
I found a Border Patrol inspection facility:
I don't know what a "Vail's Gate" is but I am 100% absolutely certain that there are no rhinos running wild out in the boondocks. They all are at the San Diego Zoo and the Safari Park.
There were three wild dogs playing in a field. When I stopped my car, two of them went to hide in the rocks, but the third one stood his ground, giving me a look that I understood well. I took a picture and left.
I found a cat abandoned in the boondocks. Still had its nametag on. I felt sorry for it but decided not to take it home.
There were signs about every half mile on the fence informing you that you were, indeed, in the USA.
I found some city slickers who were out doing the same thing I was doing, exploring the boondocks. I stopped to talk with them, volunteering to take a group photo for their posterity. These city slickers were from La Jolla, about as city-slicking as you can get here in San Diego.
I drove by one guy taking a break from working out in the field. He didn't seem to be all there, though.
I found one paved road that kept going and going and going, finally ending here:
The East Mesa Detention Facility (prison for the big boys) was also out there, but by the time I got there I was being followed by a Sheriff in a marked car and someone else in an unmarked car. They were keeping a close eye on me, and eventually two separate Sheriffs in marked cars stopped me to inquire about my business out there. They told me not to "linger."
It was obvious that trash pickup out in the boondocks is somewhat irregular.
Really a shame because the boondocks are quite beautiful.
If you ever get to San Diego and want to go exploring, give me a call. I'd be happy to be docent for the day.

Document Deep Dive: A Historic Moment in the Fight for Women's Voting Rights
A cartoonist diagrammed the parade—5,000 suffragists strong—that defiantly marched in Washington 100 years ago
- By Megan Gambino
- Smithsonian.com, March 01, 2013, Subscribe
In the spring of 1913, women in six states had the right to vote in all elections: Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Washington and California. Despite these successes, though, the momentum of the 65-year-old suffrage movement was slowing. It was like a car running on fumes.
Alice Paul decided to give it some gas. Having recently returned to the States from England, where she cut her teeth as a suffragist, the 28-year-old New Jersey native pitched an idea to the National American Woman Suffrage Association. She would organize a suffrage parade in Washington, D.C., strategically timed with the influx of crowds arriving for President Woodrow Wilson's inauguration, to drum up support for the cause. NAWSA appointed Paul the chair of its Congressional committee and approved her plan, but made it clear that she would have to come up with the money for the parade on her own.
Paul called upon her friend, Lucy Burns, a like-minded activist she met in London, and other recruits. In January 1913, the group set to work in a humble basement office in downtown Washington and, for three months, tirelessly fundraised. These coffers would cover the costs of parade floats and signs, booking speakers and printing thousands of programs.
Then, the women had to spread the word. Paul, fortunately, was a publicity machine. "The committee sent out letters and fliers to suffrage groups and others kinds of organizations in the States asking to send representatives to Washington to participate in the parade," says Lisa Kathleen Graddy, a curator of political history at the National Museum of American History. "They held lots of parlor speaking meetings. They distributed handbills. They did about everything they could."
On March 3, more than 5,000 participants from across the country ceremoniously marched a portion of the well-beaten inaugural parade path from the U.S. Capitol up Pennsylvania Avenue to the Treasury Building. So many spectators gathered along the route—about 500,000 according to newspaper accounts—that perhaps the president-elect himself, arriving to nearby Union Station for his swearing in the next day, felt snubbed. When Wilson stepped off the train that afternoon, one of his staff asked, "Where are all the people?" A police officer said, "Watching the suffrage parade."
Some of the onlookers cheered, while others jeered, but, either way, the suffragists succeeded in their purpose, outlined in the official program, "to give expression to the nation-wide demand for an amendment to the United States Constitution enfranchising women." The event, many historians argue, reinvigorated the suffrage movement and helped to propel the nation towards the 19th Amendment's ratification on August 18, 1920.
I recently spoke with Graddy about an illustration of the parade that the New York Evening Journal published the following day, March 4, 1913. The document, now held at the Library of Congress, diagrams the highly organized procession and, in doing so, sheds some light on the efforts it took to orchestrate.

I would like to know more about Winsor MacKay's involvement in the suffrage movement. (Along with Little Nemo, he was also one of the founders of American animation with his film, Gertie the Dinosaur.) Specifically, what is the context in which the drawing was made? Was MacKay sympathetic to the cause or was he simply hired to illustrate the line of march? From what I've read I think he was no political radical. But I'd like to be wrong.

The 2004 movie, "Iron Jawed Angels" does a really nice job at presenting this same snapshot of America's history. Very inspiring and informative.

Over 200 marchers in the 1913 suffrage parade were sent to the hospital because of the out-of-control crowd. For more information: http://www.suffragewagon.org/?p=6063 The turnout in 2013 for the centennial festivities and parade has been incredible.

I read the reviews on this product and debated buying it. I went ahead and purchased it because1. I was looking for a TOY keyboard2. It was reasonably pricedThe sound quality is definitely not very good but is what I expect for a cheaper TOY. If the microphone gets too close to the speaker it makes a sharp buzzing sound, but this is okay for a cheaper toy. It has a lot of functions, including a record and playback function (though it only works with the keyboard and not the microphone) which keep my 6 year old daughter occupied.Bottom line, this item stinks as an instrument. It's out of tune, the notes tend to sound warbly, it can't play two keys at once... I could go on. But I wasn't looking for an instrument! I was looking for a toy that my daughter could bang on, scream into, and occupy herself being a "rockstar" with and this keyboard definitely does that!If she doesn't manage to break it in the next year, maybe Santa will bring her a real keyboard for Christmas 2011 :-)

She loves it!
By Mary
from NY,NY
Comments about Toys R Us 1001325 Dream Dazzlers Keyboard:
my kid loves this! the mic broke easily and wasnt that nice but the she likes the different beats and instruments. Another that bothers her is that they have numbers instead of letters. Most people post songs as letters not numbers so she has to change them herself. But another nice thing is that since she loves playing any instrument for the price this is a nice one to buy because we can she if she wants to become better or play just for fun.

About Me Novice
My daughter got this for Christmas and loved it. However it didn't 6 months before it broke with little use. She was very disappointed.
Too good to be true:(
By Pi
from Toledo Ohio
My daughter fell in love with this in the store, so I told her grandparents about it, and of course she received it for Xmas. She is quite a bit younger than the suggested age, so I would never let her play w/ it by herself or unattended. With that being said she's had it for only a week and a half, and the wire broke near the part that is inserted to the keyboard, a clean cut almost... It's a very thin wire to begin with, but now what am I supposed to do? That's her favorite part. It's too cheap to replace (the microphone) and too cheap to fix it and still trust it for my kids to play with. It's an inexpensive toy, it's decent for $20-25, but if your child is anything like mine, and wants to sing or scream into a microphone, I would invest in a nicer keyboard, definitely:(

Book of Music
By Grandma Bia
from Fort Lauderdale, Florida
My granddaughters totally enjoy their keyboard. I would like to see them playing music themselves instead of just listening to the response of the button. Is there a music book that comes with the Dream Dazzlers Keyboard? They carry this instrument from one room to another without any problems then to the back yard to play concerts with their friends. They also seem to have lost the microphone that goes with it - is there a place to get another one?

stopped working
By mommymary
from michigan
Product was good at first, then quit working. Changed batteries twice, still wouldn't work. It turns on, plays beginning tune, then stops, none of the keys work. Microphone still works, so I know it isn't the sound??
Volume control busted, bad return policy
By Acceber
from Aurora, IL
My daughter got this keyboard for Christmas. Two weeks later the volume control stopped working – it would only play very low. Because we threw away the packaging, Toys R Us would only do an exchange, even with the original receipt. And I was charged additional tax for the exchange!! I really didn't want another one of the same brand – I was hoping to get a different kind of keyboard with a merchandise credit. I would think twice about buying from Toys R Us again with such a poor return policy. And I would recommend trying another keyboard!

Not Good Quality
By Mom
from Denver, CO
I couldn't wait to give this to my 5 yr old daughter for Christmas. She opened it and was so excited. Played with it for a couple of days and then the microphone stopped working and the volume would not turn up. Very disappointed in the product. I will be taking it back to Toys R Us tomorrow for a refund.
Mic Didn't Work
By Kendall's Mom
from Bella Vista
I got this for my 4 year old daughter's birthday, and she absolutely loved it... except the microphone didn't work from the very start. What a disappointment. There's obviously an issue based on all the other comments.

in response to GuideDog:
In the 1980s my brother-in-law, an avid hunter from the Midwest since he was ten years old, dropped his longtime membership in the NRA over the organization's resistance of controls on the so-called "cop killer" bullets by citing the 2nd Amendment.
He could not understand why anyone could have a valid and sane reason to sell bullets that could easily penetrate protective body armor of U.S. police and military members to anyone that wished to have them.
He was convinced the real reason was simple: profits earned from blood money.
Still an avid hunter, he has never again had any interest in supporting the NRA.
Hey Guide, you brother got his shorts all in a wad for nothing. The fact is those so-called cop-killer bullets (yet another catch phrase invented by the liberal media) were not (repeat: NOT) available for sale to the general public. That little bit of info was conveniently left out of all the feigned outrage back in the 80s. Your bro really shouldn't be in the NRA if he doesn't know what the organization does or what it stands for.
PS: that hunting rifle he's so proud of makes one heck of a fine sniper weapon; with that BIG caliber bullet it shoots designed to expand ugly on impact, and let's not forget the high-power telescopic scope he uses on top of the gun so he can get a bullet in close at 300-plus yards!

Comments: This is a great product! I haven't laughed so hard with my children....ever! And I appreciated that the packaging did not say "Harry Potter" since my kids wanted to bring it to their Christian School to play with their friends. True to Jelly Belly's tradition, the flavors taste EXACTLY like the names! |
Comments: My 15 year old son and his friends are always daring each other. I found this Jelly Belly game online and they were so excited to play and I was even more excited to watch and explain my rules. Spin, pick the color that it lands on and play at your own risk. No water is allowed! They kepted playing until someone couldn't stand it anymore and ran out of the room spitting the rotten egg jelly bean out, brushing his teeth three times and begging for water. |
Comments: I bought the product as a gag gift for my husband. It was a fun thing to watch him try some of the nasty flavors. It would be great for parties! |
Comments: We bought this as a party activity for our son's Harry Potter themed 10th birthday. We set this up as a candy gag from Fred & George's shop, and told them the beans were Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. The kids played 4 rounds of spinning and trying the jelly beans. They agreed the "good" flavors were great; however, the "bad" flavors were really terrible (in a fun way). One of the kids did gag, but it was OK, and all the kids had fun. They enjoyed the game and the beans, and all the kids decided that the take home gift (a box of the same jelly beans) would make a good gag gift for April Fool's day. Super fun and disgusting, but in a good way. |
Comments: I bought this product for my sister. We ended up playing with our brother and his girlfriend. Oh my goodness it was fun giggling about the flavors, however some of the flavors were hard to describe. I can not imagine how the flavors are created, they are so very true to life. I will never look at black jellybeans the same again. I will say, it was a lot of fun to play with, and I would buy this product again. I have also never been more happy to get buttered popcorn in my life. |
Comments: This is a great game to play with friends. |
Comments: I was given this as a gift. I thought it was great. I played it with my family. Just watching the expressions on their faces said it all!!! I had to buy some for gifts to put in Easter baskets!!! |
Comments: Alot of fun!! |
Comments: I played this with my father and brother and we all laughed until we couldn't anymore. I will admit, with a weak stomach I gagged quite a few times eating the gross ones, but it's worth it. Break this game out at a funeral and you would have people laughing. |
Comments: after seeing this product on T.V i though it would be fun to try.as said above all the flavors were so on" point".we had alot of fun with them " the baby wipe one "un-real" |
Comments: I really loved this product. I gave it to my ten year old brother on his birthday and my whole family played it. A great twist off of truth or dare. |
Comments: Great at gatherings |
Comments: The Bean Bozzled is a great game for kids of all ages. I have used it as an ice breaker & team builder activity. |
Comments: We used this at a teen overnight function at church. The spinner was too small for everyone to see and for larger fingers to spin. Everyone had a great time and no one got sick from the taste! :) |
Comments: Great fun gift---and delicious. |

Dear Abby: I have been in love with "Richard" for 14 years. We broke up after we dated for a while because my alcoholic mother kept interfering. She kept telling me how "bad" he was for me — and I, thinking my mother had my best interests at heart, believed her.
After a divorce on my part and a breakup on his, we are in a long-distance relationship. We hope to make our relationship permanent after getting to know each other again.
My problem is, when Richard is unhappy or upset with someone else, he takes it out on me. It drives me crazy.
I know what he's doing; I just don't know how to stop it. The latest flare-up involved the fact that his dog was missing.
He refuses to get counseling. What do I do? — Pulling My Hair Out
Dear Pulling: Your problem isn't that Richard uses you as a scapegoat for his frustrations; it's that you tolerate it. It's possible that, because of your mother's alcoholism and the unpredictable behavior you were subjected to during your formative years, you have accepted Richard's behavior.
Because he refuses counseling, you should get some. What he's doing is not acceptable. It is emotional abuse. From my perspective, the healthiest thing you could do for yourself, besides break up with Richard, would be to keep the romance long-distance until he changes his ways.
Dear Abby: I am a retired woman, active in my community and troubled by a recent incident involving a longtime friend. This is the third time it has happened, and it left me feeling embarrassed.
When we're out together meeting new people, she will introduce herself as being a secretary or a senior secretary and me as "just" a receptionist. The job title is true, but I hold a college degree. I have held other positions commanding greater respect. Why does this make me feel so demeaned? Can you help me understand and form a game plan? — More Than a Job Title in New England
Dear More Than a Job Title: Your "friend" is insecure. That she describes you as " just" a receptionist is her attempt to make her own job designation seem more important.
You don't need a "game plan" in dealing with her. "Just" tell her to cut it out, or the friendship will be history.

What an unexpected treat for Doc fans. Keith "Kez" Wilson has fabricated forty of these "What If" covers using art by the great James Bama from the Bantam paperbacks. In the original pulps, the seemingly supernatural menaces which the Man of Bronze faced always turned out to have a rational explanation. But imagine Doc coming up against the likes of the Wolf Man, or Count Dracula? Or science fiction threats like the Blob, the Creature from the Black Lagoon or Klaatu and Gort? The Doctor in his Tardis? Fu Manchu? IF these books were authorized by Conde Nast and someone like Will Murray was writing them, I'd cash in my life insurance to buy them if I had to.Wilson has also done clean-ups and make-overs on those Bantam Doubles where the Bob Larkin art was reduced to teeny little images. It's great to see how they would have looked as regular covers.
Thanks, "Kez!" I hope you realize how much your efforts are appreciated. It made my day brighter.
