Most of the post Kennedy reputation was initiated by his widow and brothers who started the whole…Read More Camelot persona, with full media consent. All of the family was so protective of every aspect of JFK. Just as they were when he was alive. The serious medical issues, the continual womanizing and infidelity all protecting him with the apparent agreement of the liberal media. By today's comparisons, Kennedy would be a moderate Republican, but IF all the facts of his now known past were known to the American people at the time in 1960, I do not believe he ever would have been elected. The Warren Commission was also somewhat of a shame, operating so fast that many facts were excluded or never really investigated. This was done by Lyndon B Johnson so that any conspiracy theories about Cuba or the USSR would be quickly averted so as to avoid a war or retaliation against either of these so called "enemies" of America at the time. Sadly, just like with Abraham Lincoln 150 years ago, I do not believe we will ever know the entire truth as to WHO was responsible for JFK's murder. The Mafia, Cuba, Right Wingers of the era, even LBJ himself, ALL had reasons to be considered involved in some way or another in this tragedy. While it was a dark spot in American history, the worse part of the entire event is the lack of of Americans obtaining and getting the TRUTH of that tragic day in Dallas 50 years ago today.

You are a pure and typically uninformed, believe what they tell you to, and do what they say not…Read More what they do, LIBERAL MEMBER OF THE HERD CITIZEN. Thank God, oh my I said God, most Americans are not one of you. Tea Bathers, how does it feel to be part of a group that does nothing but is fed absolute crap, believes it and does nothing but call others names. Shame on You.
calvin mortz November 12, 2013 at 06:39 pm
I agree 100% L. Adams. The Tea Bathers as you term the Radical Right Insurgency are fed daily…Read More propaganda that is indeed in your words "absolute crap." I also agree that the names the far-out-right call the President of the United States is a stain on all Americans. Right with you when you say, "Shame on You."

WOW, This is crazy, people are just wacko. My girls were both Girl Scouts and it is a wonderful…Read More organization. Does this mean that Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts are gay communist too. I think I see a correlation don't you. Unless this so call Pastor has 100% proof of this he, should be charge with slander. People who believe this kind of crap probably can be sold anything. They probably all have a Kirby vacuum too. To attack little girls like this is just wrong!! He is a Baptist right? This guy probably just hates women and beats his wife daily. That is usually the case with people like this. Him and Westboro Church must be close ties. God would not be happy!

This country has wasted more money and continues to waste more money trying to enforce unenforceable…Read More laws when it could take in a whole lot of money by way of taxes (and act humanely) if it could find an organized, rational way of putting those who want to be citizens on the proper path. As for the silly comment about the prison population: poor people who see no hope commit crimes, and that does not apply only to immigrants, legal or otherwise.

Of course it is! Although I don't see why. Let me explain. We're in the 'sequester' and the…Read More gov't. shut-down. Also many repub states have furloughed personell & services to the point that these repub states barely are operational. So even with the 'fiscal-cliff', the 'sequester', the pension reductions, the firing of thousands of state employees (and now federal employees as well) the 'shut-down' tese same wrecking-ball lunatics say we
still have to CUT more! These people are idiots that don't recognize the CUTS that have been made! You can't be spending more when you've dam near wrecked the country!
Josh Moore October 16, 2013 at 11:32 am
Richard. A quick scan of you're patch comments has convinced me that you're swamp scum. Probably…Read More not the native kind, but more likely on loan from N.J. Fortunately, the budget will be passed despite your current onions. I have surveyed the land and Florida is not a good place to be when the gov't decides to stop paying its bills. That is unless you are the type who would look forward to spending the next 12 months perched on your roof day and night with an assault rifle. Poverty is within walking distance of every upscale Gulf Coast community and if you turn off their food they will be coming for yours skippy. That is a historical certainty.
Haig Pointer September 27, 2013 at 09:58 am
Why do these politicians think they can force Obamacare on us? Where's the outrage? Fines for not…Read More complying with their wishes? Who elects these people?
Len Roessler September 29, 2013 at 10:02 am
Why do you think that you can pay nothing and go to the emergency room where the costs for non…Read More payees are built into my insurance premiums? Where is the outrage, indeed. I don't mind my taxes helping to subsidize those who can't afford healthcare for their families, but, I do mind paying for those who can and don't.
John Garvey September 9, 2013 at 01:55 pm
The President should have reacted with a quick strike, without warning, the moment Assad used…Read More chemical weapons. We knew about it long before now. The American people would have understood it then. It would be over. Now it's far too late and could have NO positive result. We are seen as indecisive and weak. Our "leadership" has failed us and the people are speaking loudly against going to war and the President has put American in a no win situation. So no, hell no.
Pete Hansen September 11, 2013 at 04:56 pm
Serbia is home to the Adria Oil Pipeline that pumps 10 million tons per year to the Yugoslavian…Read More Refineries.... This is why Russia has resistance...so basically.. it's the same Bulls@#T over and over again... so.. clearly NO..the greed in this country is only second to our ignorance and lack of motivation, which tends to empower that greed...so make more comments and Facebook how much you disagree.. I am sure it will make a real difference! (NOT)
Pete Hansen September 11, 2013 at 04:58 pm
If you think we should bomb people for any reason, you are clearly an ignorant idiot.

2010 Sbragia "Gamble Ranch" Napa Valley Chardonnay
Review Date: 11-14-2013
There are some wines that, from the very moment they hit your glass, make it known that youre in for a treat. The 2010 Sbragia Gamble Ranch Napa Valley Chardonnay is one such wine. Golden-hued in the glass with seductive aromas of butter pecan, lemon chiffon and tropical fruit aromas which quickly give way to a palate full of lemon meringue pie, golden delicious apples, hazelnut and clove flavors. The wine has a silky texture, good acidity and a harmonious finish. This is a flat-out delicious Chardonnay that is currently hitting on all cylinders.

A medium-bodied, dry Cabernet Sauvignon with aromas of violets, crème de cassis, plum, dried cocoa and maple with a palate that displays flavors of plum, spice, graphite and earth notes.

Review Date: 11-14-2013
Wow! The nose of the 2009 Sbragia Cimarossa Vineyard Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is absolutely intoxicating, with aromas of fresh-picked blackberries, dark chocolate and subtle herb notes. The palate is a beautiful mix of black plum, spice-cake, blackberry, bittersweet chocolate and earth notes. The finish is long and supple with good energy and verve as the wine slowly fades away.

A nicely-textured, open-knit approachable Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2009 Sbragia Rancho del Oso Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is a complex, enjoyable offering that displays restraint and finesse. The nose starts out with aromas of blueberries, clove, and volcanic rock, while the palate displays intense blueberry, blackberry, crème de cassis and pain grille flavors.

2009 Sbragia "Wall Vineyard" Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon
Review Date: 11-14-2013
The third wine in a trio of single-vineyard 2009 Cabernet Sauvignons from Sbragia, the 2009 Sbragia Wall Vineyard Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon is a structured, broad-shouldered Cabernet Sauvignon with aromas of chocolate-covered cherries, mocha, caramel and tobacco. The palate is dark and brooding, with flavors of plum, eucalyptus, blackberry liqueur and notes of crushed rock and baking chocolate. The wine is supple, with a finish that echoes the palate, and it slowly dissipates on the tongue.

2009 Sbragia "Home Ranch" Dry Creek Valley Chardonnay
Review Date: 10-16-2013
The 2009 Sbragia Home Ranch Dry Creek valley Chardonnay is a nice compromise between the over-the-top hedonistic style and restrained Burgundian style. The wine has a pretty nose that offers up aromas of lemon oil, wet stone and hints of oak. The palate is nicely balanced with flavors of tropical fruits, baked apples, hints of clove and spice all seamlessly melded together on a medium-bodied wine. A nice chardonnay that offers a step up from your everyday drinking Chardonnay.

2011 Cambria "Julia's Vineyard" Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir
Review Date: 10-14-2013
The 2011 Cambria Julias Vineyard Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir has an intoxicating nose, from the very first sniff this wine is hard to resist. Aromas of macerated cherries and strawberries along with hints of rose petals and clove whaff from the glass. The palate is a delicate and elegant expression of pure Pinot Noir with flavors of cherry, strawberry, cola and spice notes with a bright and racy finish. Youd be hard-pressed to find a better Pinot Noir for under $20.

2011 Cambria "Bench Break" Santa Maria Valley Chardonnay
Review Date: 10-14-2013
A step up from the Katherines Vineyard Chardonnay in both stature and price is the 2011 Cambria Bench Break Vineyard Santa Maria valley Chardonnay. This wine sings from the glass with aromas of lemon oil, graham cracker and hazelnut aromas with a rich palate full of baked apple, nut skin, tropical fruits and vanilla. This wine feels like a Corton Charlemagne with its rich palate, viscous mouth feel, depth and power. A fabulous value this is a great California chardonnay that wont break the bank.

2011 Cambria "Katherine's Vineyard" Santa Maria Valley Chardonnay
Review Date: 10-14-2013
What makes the ideal Chardonnay? For me it has to have notes of exotic tropical fruits, good acidity and verve and lastly a nice touch of rich oak that helps to frame the wine but does not overwhelm the fruit and spice characteristics of the wine. The 2011 Cambria Katherines Vineyard Santa Maria Valley Chardonnay is just that wine: gorgeous fruit, just the right amount of acid and a rich, buttery hint of oak on the finish-just what you want in an everyday drinking Chardonnay.

2010 St. Clement Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Review Date: 10-9-2013
There was a time when finding a great Napa Cab for under $20 was easy, nowadays after recalibrating for the year 2013 I am on the lookout for a great Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon for under $30. The 2010 St. Clement Cabernet Sauvignon is that wine, deep aromas of black currants, roasted meat, pain grille and rosemary slowly linger from the glass. The palate is a restrained blend of plum, blackberry, dark coffee and spice notes. The palate is dry and long with good energy and verve and the perfect sense of weight. This is a well-crafted Cabernet Sauvignon that harkens back to the classically made wines of the 70s & 80s in Napa Valley.

2010 St. Clement "Oroppas" Napa Valley Bordeaux Blend
Review Date: 10-4-2013
Ive been a fan of St. Clement Oroppas for years! This has been a wine that consistently over-delivers year-after-year vintage-to-vintage. If youre seeking out the structure of a Bordeaux Red coupled with the fruit and seamless feel of a California Cabernet Sauvignon then your search has ended: drink the 2010 St. Clement Oroppas. The wine starts out with aromas of black plums, cola notes, mocha and hints of clove and eucalyptus. The palate is a mix of dark macerated berries, Bakers chocolate and spice notes nicely buffered by racy acidity and soft mocha-laced accents. The wine is amazingly approachable and easy drinking in its youth but can easily age 5-15 years. A delicious wine that carries on the tradition of Oroppas being one of the better Bordeaux blend values made in Napa Valley.

(CNN) - Dogs bite more than 4.7 million Americans each year and about 800,000 of these require medical attention.
However, there are steps we can take to help prevent dog bites.
We've all heard the expression, a dog is a man's best friend. But to make this relationship work, people need to learn to read a dog's body language to help prevent dog bites.
"Most dogs that bite are only doing so because they are scared and want to warn you to back away. That's what aggression achieves – distance," dog trainer Victoria Stilwell said.
So if you're meeting a dog for the first time the most important thing to remember is give it space. Do not go into that dog's space.
Let the dog come to you, Stilwell said. Turn your body to the side so that you look less threatening, put your hand in a fist and hold your hand down so the dog can sniff your fist.
"When you meet a dog as well, don't stare in its eyes. Don't smile at it. Because staring at its eyes is a challenge, is a threat," she said.
Pet the animal on the back of the neck or on his back and not on the top of the head, she said.
Yawning and lip licking may be signs that the dog feels uncomfortable and wants you to back away.
Try not to run from a dog or scream. If you do get knocked over, roll into a ball, lie still and cover your head.
When it comes to avoiding dog bites, knowing what to look for in our 4-legged friends can help both man and dog stay safe.

Green Days instantly recognizable songs play incredibly well in Rock Band," said Paul DeGooyer, Senior Vice President of Electronic Games and Music, MTV Networks.

The game takes place in three unique venues that capture the raw energy from Green Days early punk years to the explosive arena shows that the band is known for all over the world.

About Green Day
Green Day (Music & Lyrics) vocalist/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt, and drummer Tré Cool were kids from working-class backgrounds who came of age in the underground punk scene in Berkeley. Even though they had released two records prior (1039 / Smoothed Out Slappy Hours and Kerplunk), they announced their arrival with 1994's Dookie, a dynamic blast of exuberant punk-pop that sold 15 million copies and earned the band its first Grammy® Award for Best Alternative Music Performance. Over the years, Green Day continued to top the charts with their subsequent studio albums Insomniac, Nimrod, and Warning, while entertaining millions of fans with their frenetic live shows. But it was their landmark 2004 album American Idiot that launched Green Day into the stratosphere. American Idiot debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard chart, spawned five hit singles, earned seven Grammy® nominations (winning two, including Best Rock Album), and raised the bar for modern rock and roll. Last year, Green Day released its new album 21st Century Breakdown, which won a 2010 Grammy® Award for Best Rock Album. It spawned two hit singles: the gold Know Your Enemy, which was the first song ever to top Billboards Rock, Alternative, and Mainstream Rock charts simultaneously, and the platinum 21 Guns, which earned them three 2009 MTV Video Music Awards including Best Rock Video. Green Day also took home an American Music Award for Favorite Alternative Rock Music Artist. For more about the band, visit www.greenday.com.

Jackson County insurance requirement for vicious dogs
Jackson County Commissioners are considering tough new regulations for owners of dogs that attack.
James Shotwell is chairman of the commission. He says a judge will determine whether a dog owner will have to get one hundred thousand dollars of liability coverage for the animal.
"The language is something that is established by the courts, after the person is cited with the animal repeatedly," Shotwell says. "So it's not like everyone who has a pit bull or has a vicious dog has to have liability insurance. That's not what we're saying."
Shotwell says the county's animal control department monitors complaints about dogs running loose or behaving aggressively.
He says the county will also rigorously enforce its dog licensing law by conducting sweeps of problem areas.

A Monastery classic. Located about halfway up the SE corner of the Boneyard formation, the climb begins on a secluded, dramatic shelf perched above the valley floor. The views are to die for - on the ground and on the route. A bouldery start leads to continuous, inspiring climbing just right of the sharp SE ar�te. Access to the climb is via a small shelf on the lower end of the Boneyard, found on the Catacomb trail. Look for a bolt route (Saint Sixtus Scoop, 5.10b) which starts in a smooth scoop-like wall above the shelf. Scramble up past the bolt route along the narrowing shelf and find the Hot Zone ar�te above. To begin, climb back up to the entrance shelf, clip the 1st bolt and jump back to the ground for the full-on, feelin' safe crank - the direct start is a nice boulder problem right up the face, but the hardest moves of the climb can be avoided from the left. Above the first bolt is the unavoidable crux move of the climb and takes one to easier - yet no less interesting - climbing along the right side of the ar�te. Hang out from a two bolt anchor and enjoy the view then rap 60' to the ground.
6 bolts to a two bolt anchor
GREAT climb for a short sport climb! Really photogenic....
Wow, this is a really, really enjoyable route. Made my first trip to the Monastery this weekend and this was our 4th route of the day, and probably the most fun. Great moves, position, and scenery. Good photo ops for someone willing to scramble uphill of the route.
Best bolted 5.9 I've ever done. and the hike in is a piece of cake -- it hugs the slope's contours, so practically no elevation changes.
My favorite route at The Monastery (so far!). Absolutely stunning views all the way up. Feels pretty exposed, in that you're climbing an arete with nothing but Big Thompson Valley beneath you. The start was the toughest part for me, I began a bit to the right of the arete and then traversed over (decently chalked moves). You can pre-clip the first bolt to make it a less scary of a lead. Probably not necessary, but I used some fun foot-crossing moves to kind of dance around a bit. You can use some great holds on the arete for most of the route. Enjoy the view!
I liked this route so much I led it 2x in a row!!! My favorite at Monastery so far....
Moving right to the anchors seems a little runout but not bad. Great route with positive holds most of the route.
Great moves at the second-to-last-bolt and is very fun in between! For the area, this definitely fits in as a 5.9. As for + and -, I have no idea. Wonderful warm-up and a sweet lead.
Excellent little sport route! If you are a new 5.9 leader, make sure you get on this if you are here.

Wednesday, December 19, 2012
ROCHESTER, Minn. — Painless swollen legs are relatively common and usually easily managed. But, according to the December issue of Mayo Clinic Health Letter, this condition — called peripheral edema — is sometimes associated with a more serious underlying disease.
Edema is the result of excess fluid in the tissues. Normally, the blood vessels, lymph systems and tissues surrounding these vessels maintain a balance of fluid. When these forces are out of balance, the tiniest blood vessels (capillaries) may leak fluid that ends up in surrounding tissues, causing swelling.
Other edema symptoms may include skin that is stretched or shiny; skin that stays indented after being pressed for at least five seconds; and an increase in abdomen size. Edema can affect the lungs and cause shortness of breath that requires immediate medical care.
Mild peripheral edema, without serious symptoms such as shortness of breath or high blood pressure, is usually the result of not-so-worrisome causes including:
Edema can also signal serious health concerns such as weak or damaged leg veins, congestive heart failure, scarring of the liver, blood clots in the lower legs, chronic kidney damage and pelvic tumor.
A physical exam and diagnostic tests can help sort out the underlying cause of peripheral edema. Tests might include blood analysis, urinalysis, electrocardiogram or chest X-ray.
In addition to treating any underlying condition, a physician will likely suggest management techniques to help prevent fluid retention. Options include wearing special compression stockings, lying down with legs elevated for an hour or two a day, and water aerobics or walking in a swimming pool. For more severe cases, a fluid pill (diuretic) may be prescribed.

Music or silence?
I am a big fan of C.S. Lewis (C for Clive, S for Staples). When I read his books I tend to get the feeling that they were written for me personally. I suspect they were not, but I can't prove that. When my wife and I were thinking of names for our latest child, I tried to convince her that Clive Staples Throneburg was very sophisticated and commanded respect. She then commanded me to be quiet.
I have recently been reading Lewis' "Screwtape Letters." The book is a collection of letters written by a high-ranking demon to an underling. The underling has been assigned to a human and is working diligently to bring him into the Devil's fold. The letters reveal the strategies and tactics he employs to complete his assignment. It's a unique, and at times, amusing look at the struggle for our souls.
The thing that strikes me over and over as I read the book is its relevance in our modern time. At one point Lewis even comments on the media and the way they can distract and distort. He wrote the book 70 years ago! In one chapter the human subject finds a girlfriend, which we all know is an experience that can be soul-changing, for better or for worse. The demons discuss whether this is a positive development for them or a setback to their efforts. They conclude the new relationship is indeed a setback in part because the girl comes from a home "where there is only life and therefore all that is not music is silence." The head demon, Screwtape, speaks to the dangers of such a home and goes on to promote the various benefits of noise to their diabolical cause.

MIT says it wants a solar 'revolution'
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Tuesday announced a $10 million grant to develop technology to make solar power mainstream.
The Chesonis Foundation donated the money for research in three areas: materials to improve conversion of light to electricity; storage; and hydrogen production from solar energy and water.
Called the Solar Revolution Project, it will provide funding for 30 five-year fellowships in solar energy.
The idea is to pursue "blue sky" research, in an effort to fill the void between corporate-funded applied research and the limited amount of federal money dedicated to basic science research in solar, said … Read more

Shippensburg University: Speech Code Litigation
In April 2003, FIRE Legal Network attorneys David A. French and William Adair Bonner filed a complaint against Shippensburg University, challenging the legality of its speech code, on behalf of two unnamed students. The U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania later issued a preliminary injunction ordering Shippensburg to cease enforcement of certain aspects of the speech code. The attorneys reached an out-of-court settlement with Shippensburg in 2004, in which the school agreed to replace unconstitutional provisions of its Code of Conduct and to rewrite its Racism and Cultural Diversity Policy. Four years later, Shippensburg reinstated several unconstitutional provisions from the speech codes, in violation of the agreement. After the Alliance Defense Fund filed suit on behalf of several Shippensburg students in May 2008, the university again settled out of court, eliminating its unconstitutional speech codes once again.
- "Federal Lawsuit Filed against Shippensburg University as School Blatantly Violates Settlement Repealing Unconstitutional Speech Codes," May 7, 2008: A complaint filed in federal court today by attorneys from the Alliance Defense Fund alleges that Shippensburg University has dishonestly reinstituted unconstitutional policies in violation of the terms of a 2004 legal settlement reached with members of FIRE's Legal Network. The 2004 settlement came after the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania issued a preliminary injunction against the university, ordering Shippensburg's then-president, Anthony F. Ceddia, not to enforce unconstitutional provisions of Shippensburg's code.
- "Shippensburg University's Speech Codes (2003)," February 24, 2004
- "A Great Victory for Free Speech at Shippensburg," February 24, 2004: FIRE and its Legal Network have won a historic victory for free speech on college and university campuses. Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania, which had so vehemently defended extensive restrictions upon the free speech of its students, has agreed to repeal its unconstitutional speech code.
- "Federal Court Orders Shippensburg University Not To Enforce 'Unconstitutional' Speech Code," September 5, 2003: A federal court issued a preliminary injunction on September 4, 2003, ordering Shippensburg University President Anthony F. Ceddia not to enforce provisions of Shippensburg's speech code. The court also denied the university's motion to dismiss FIRE's case, allowing it to proceed to trial.
- "Court Order for Shippensburg University, September 4, 2003," September 4, 2003
- "Lawsuit Already Shakes Speech Codes at Shippensburg University," August 22, 2003: As part of its current nationwide effort to free American public colleges and universities from unconstitutional restrictions on speech, FIRE and its Legal Network have challenged Shippensburg University's speech codes in federal court. Although a ruling has yet to be issued, Shippensburg University finds itself unable to defend in public what it wished to do in private and is already dismantling its policies.

- "Shippensburg University Racism and Cultural Diversity Policy Statement, as Printed May 19, 2003," May 19, 2003
- "Form Response from Shippensburg University to FIRE, April 2003," April 30, 2003
- "FIRE Declares War on Speech Codes," April 23, 2003: Yesterday afternoon, attorneys from FIRE's Legal Network challenged the unconstitutional speech code at Shippensburg University, in Pennsylvania. This lawsuit is the first step in an unprecedented national campaign that will end—through legal action and through public exposure—the scandal of unconstitutional censorship at America's public college and university campuses and that will force private institutions to choose between liberty and tyranny.

Case Materials
- "Victory for Free Speech at Shippensburg: After Violating Terms of 2004 Settlement, University Once Again Dismantles Unconstitutional Speech Code," by William Creeley, October 24, 2008: In a victory for free speech on campus, yesterday Shippensburg University settled a federal lawsuit alleging that the university had violated the terms of a 2004 agreement wherein Shippensburg had agreed to rescind or reform its unconstitutional speech codes. The Alliance Defense Fund, which filed the complaint this past May, announced that Shippensburg has again agreed to honor the 2004 agreement. According to the ADF, which brought suit on behalf of a Christian student organization, the agreement was violated by the university's student government, which reinstituted several of the unconstitutional policies verbatim. The 2004 agreement, a victory for FIRE's first lawsuit filed as part of the Speech Code Litigation Project, was reached after a federal district judge issued a preliminary injunction against Shippensburg's speech code.

Canon's new point-and-shoot camera--the 14-megapixel PowerShot SX210 IS--is a powerful upgrade from last year's excellent 12X optical-zoom SX200 IS.
On top of SX200 carryover features like the pop-up flash, optical image stabilization, and HDMI-out, the SX210 boasts a 14X zoom range and a 3-inch LCD screen. Another addition is the dedicated video button with stereo audio recording and the ability to zoom while shooting video. We also like the wink-and-smile detection for remote shutter release.
Available in March.

Girls Next DoorSpin-off from *AsheRhyder's original idea and fancomic, 'Roommates'. Sarah Williams from Labyrinth and Christine Daaé from The Phantom of the Opera - trying desperately to get on with ordinary lives, in spite of their respective stalkers-slash-suitors, glitter, unexpected crossovers, Random Black Chickens, meddling Powers of Fanservice, preternatural perverts, Sushi Incidents, Nanny Ogg, strange neighbours, thin-to-defunct Fourth Walls and oodles of Unresolved Sexual Tension. CommentsHidden by Owner Pika! I know you probably already have a costume for Sarah picked out for the Masque Ball. BUT, I saw this and though I should show you......
The title is what made me think of it. Plus, it seems like the sort of thing Sarah would wear. I know you've probably already drawn the pages.... But still. Fantastic comic. You got me to watch Phantom of the Opera, I'll have you know. And I'm very grateful of it. I'm just curious as to if V and Evey will be making an appearance at this masque ball? I think Evey would get along with Sarah and Christine quite well. Same could be said of V, Jareth and Eric. Perhaps I've missed any V for Vendetta references (I should hope not, I've read them all four times over to date) and I'm not saying you need to make any, I just thought it would be an interesting crossover. Keep up the amazing work, and I am eagerly awaiting more from the GNDverse!
Heey, do you know what happened to the GND doodle with the cast of Princess Bride? I can't seem to find it.
This is one of the greatest crossovers ever. Every time I get into another fandom mentioned here the jokes in the comics get funnier. I was just reading through and found the one you were looking for. It's here: pika-la-cynique.deviantart.com…
I'd say I do more than shit and giggles while reading it...I almost choke on my coffee. Anyway, your art is soooo AMAZING, the characters facial expressions and the humor is Fantastic! I'm looking forward to more..I'm freaking love it! Hello!
Congratulations, your comic has overcome the inertia I've had about creating a DeviantArt account! I just read through the entire archive in an evening and I've enjoyed every moment of it. Your art is fabulous and I love the story that you're telling. I especially love that you do more than pay lip service to the "stalking is creepy" angle. I'm really looking forward to seeing where you take this! And now I need to go watch "Labyrinth" again... |

When I synch (now, after loading 22.214.171.124.199), I'm getting dupe and trip synchs; it never did that before. I've checked & rechecked the 2 drives, the library, etc., & see no folders that would be causing duplicate/triplicate. ALSO, it now takes FOREVER (15 to 20 hours) to synch 18,000 tunes, where it used to take only 3 to 4 hours.
Has anyone experienced this & has there been any kind of fix?

Then and Now: Light Business Airplane Conference
Filed under: Wings
Originally The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) was planning a three-day conference to bring together the entrepreneurs and pilots who own and operate light business airplanes. But the climate for small aviation is in a much different state than it was when the conference was originally conceived. The NBAA announced at the end of last week that the first Light Business Airplane Conference will be cut down to two days instead of three in San Diego on Friday, March 13, and Saturday, March 14, 2009. The size of the indoor exhibits has been limited to a maximum of 20 ft.-by-20 ft. Attendance fees will also be reduced by 50 percent, and indoor exhibit fees will be reduced by 20 percent. As Aero-News reports the Opening General Session will feature presentations from pilot and Forbes magazine publisher Rich Karlgaard and pilot/surgeon and Flying magazine contributor Dr. Dick Karl. The future of light business airplanes will likely eventually bounce back but for now the scaled back conference reflect the current industry which is experiencing doldrums as air taxi services close up shop and makers of the aircraft cut back production.

Alison Tedrow, Senior Dietetics Student, Iowa State University
Have you ever heard someone say they like to workout on an empty stomach because then they burn more fat? This is one of the most detrimental workout myths out there. The reality is, working out on an empty stomach breaks down muscle instead of building it and will most likely lead to not having the energy to complete a good workout. This is because the body's preferred source of energy is carbohydrates. When a workout is completed in a fasted state the body will use whatever carbohydrates are left, then protein from muscle degradation, and finally fat. Food is fuel, and just like a car can't run without gas, the body cannot run without food. Therefore, proper nutrition can make the difference between a good workout and a sluggish workout. The keys to successfully fueling a workout are meal or snack composition and timing.
What is eaten immediately before a workout, if anything, is an important item to consider because this is what the body will primarily rely on to get through the workout. It is generally considered best to provide a good source of simple carbohydrates and protein. Why? Because carbohydrates are the body's preferred source of energy and simple carbs will be absorbed quickly. However, during a long workout (2 or more hours) consuming a combination of complex and simple carbs would be best so that the complex carbs can fuel the later part of the workout, due to slower absorption. Protein will promote quick muscle recovery and help to minimize damage. Research has shown that supplements that combine carbohydrates and protein reduce muscle damage and soreness because of the response created by both the myoglobin and the creatine kinase in muscle (1). Supplying a pre-workout meal with carbs and protein can be as simple as making toast with peanut butter, mixing Greek yogurt with berries, grabbing a handful of raisins and almonds, or blending a protein shake. Precisely how much one should eat is going to vary by the intensity, frequency, and duration of the workouts. In addition to eating before a workout it is also important to remember to properly hydrate with plenty of water.
Timing of a pre-workout snack or meal is just as vital as what is eaten. The exact best time to eat before a workout is going to vary from person to person so make sure to experiment a little, but generally between thirty and ninety minutes before a workout is going to be best. Eating too close to a workout will cause the stomach to compete with the working muscles for blood to help digest the food, which can cause stomach cramping and nausea. Eating too far ahead can cause the body to run out of fuel before the workout is complete, causing the body to feel tired and fatigued. Not only does correct timing fuel the workout it also can increase lean body mass and increase muscle strength gains during resistance training (2). Now what about those morning workouts? Those can be tricky, but the best option is to eat some combination of simple carbs and protein immediately after waking up so that by the time the workout has begun the body has had adequate time to process the food. If this does not seem like enough time, a bed time snack the night before could also fuel the workout (3).
While both what is eaten and when it is eaten are important, the trick is putting those together. Meal or snack and timing should vary by how close it is to the workout. For example, if a workout is planned for 4 in the afternoon, consuming a substantial lunch 3 to 4 hours beforehand and then a snack approximately 1 hour before should provide sufficient fuel. A substantial lunch would allow the metabolism to continue supporting the body through the day and should include all of the macronutrients: carbohydrates, protein, and fat. An example of a food containing all of the macronutrients could be a turkey and cheese sandwich with mayo. The pre-workout snack should be modeled as discussed above including simple carbohydrates and protein to provide the fuel needed for the workout. However, if time did not permit for lunch until closer to the workout consuming a lighter lunch may end up being the best option. Adjusting your meals and snacks can be easily achieved as long as proximity to the workout and meal or snack composition is considered.
No matter what your exercise plans may be, make sure to also plan your pre-workout nutrition. With good meal or snack composition and timing you will be providing yourself ample energy to have a successful workout. Just remember, if you can't fuel it you can't move it!

Ha...now that I have your attention (398 views last month…Awesome!)
Many great leaders have noted, "…change generally does not happen without some struggle…"
Now that voting is underway and members have the right to make a decision on whether they are for or against the name change, I just hope we can all get along…LOL
But seriously, whether the name Association for Strategic Knowledge Professionals is selected or not, we will still need to move forward with change. Reflecting on the next steps of the association and the changes to come, I really would like us to change the way we state our business. Here are some of the things I would like to see the association improve...
· Using the website, brochures, and other collateral do a better job of explaining what the association represents. For example, on the main page of the website provide a concise statement that says,
"The Association represents librarians and information professionals who work in large and small corporations, information centers, knowledge management services, professional online information services, consultants' services, government Institutions, law firms, specialist agencies, organizations, departments, and much more."
I am sorry but the statement, " Through innovative learning, successful networking…" does not tell me anything about the members of the association.
· If SLA remains the name or not, provide a definition of "Special". For example, accompanied with imagery we could say…
"The term "Special" refers to the specialized or specialist services that librarians and information professionals provide to the businesses, institutions, organizations they work for and help strategically improve decision making in an effort to generate or retain revenue through knowledge management and/or dissemination of information which may include information collecting, gathering, administrating, managing, referring, researching, analyzing, collaborating, marketing, web designing/developing, implementation, purchasing, and testing."
· Concisely and with imagery, state who we serve. For example, we could say we serve…
o Members
o Businesses that employee librarians and information professionals
· Clearly state what we offer to our members:
o Knowledge Sharing
o Continued Education through course work, e.g. UClick
o Information Standards & Certifications regarding:
§ Collecting, gathering, administrating, managing, marketing, referring, researching, analyzing, collaborating, web designing/development, implementation, and/or testing.
o A conducive atmosphere for networking
o Job Referrals (Full time and Temporary Projects)
o Annual Salary Survey; Publications (i.e. Information Outlook, E-Newsletters)
· Finally, clearly state what we offer to businesses we serve:
o Venues for…
§ Lead generating
§ Advertising
§ Business and Product promotions
o Referral Services
o Employment Advertising

action packed film with suprises everywhere
By SE_SCFA (2 reviews) , 23 Jan 2013The film starts on an ordinary day, where train dispatcher Garber (Washington) starts noticing that something is wrong. Hijacker Ryder (Travolta) demands $10,000,000 or the hostages die. The film gives you a real time account for whats happening with a clock counting down the fatal minutes until the deadline. In conversation between Garber and Ryder, you find out that Garber isn't as innocent as he seems.- Was this review helpful to you?

When Timor-Leste's new Cabinet was announced, there was a flurry of critical comment within Timor-Leste, about both the size and composition of the ministry. Some critics were unhappy that an expanded ministry would cost more and potentially lead to more corruption while others railed against Timor-Leste becoming an 'oligarchy' rather than a democracy.
The positive aspect of this commentary is that is shows that Timor-Leste is a plural political society expressing a range of political views. It is also important to note that while some of the commentary reflected partisan political positions, much of it also reflected a genuine concern over the size and capacity of the government.
The new ministry, with 17 ministers, is not especially large by any standard and is much smaller than many of other countries. The criticism therefore reflects on the inclusion of vice-ministers and secretaries of state, who exercise quasi-ministerial functions.
