As part of Sears' exciting new plan of ditching any businesses that consumers actually like, the company announced today that it will be spinning off Lands' End. The catalog company, which sells decent-quality clothing for middle-aged people, has been part of Sears since 2001. Instead of selling off the business, Sears plans to spin it off as its own entity, as it did with Sears Outlet and Hometown stores last year. [More]
Boarded-Up But Open Sears Cited For Urban Blight
Rioters destroyed storefronts in downtown Oakland, California five months ago, filling the area with sadness and boarded-up windows. All of the businesses have fixed up their public faces except one. One retailer's huge building still has boarded-up windows and looks abandoned. Local residents call the blighted storefront "depressing," and the city issued a citation for "blight." The blighted business? Sears. [More]
Sears Commercials Through The Decades: Jingles, Car Repair, Bruises
Sears: it was an iconic American retailer, and now has become more of a cautionary business tale as it struggles for relevance and tries to shed more real estate and scrap itself for parts. Many years ago, though, Sears was a central shopping experience in Americans' lives. Americans who bought boom boxes and played "Space Invaders." [More]
Google Helpouts Are Live, And Lots Of "Experts" Are Giving Out Free Advice
In August, Google announced the creation of Google Helpouts, a live chat service that lets semi-vetted, self-declared experts in any number of fields make themselves available for help, guidance, and tutorials for a price. The service is finally live, and in some categories, there are plenty of people willing to give their advice away for free, along with a number of retailers hoping you'll come to them for help.

Kmart To Open At 6 A.M. On Thanksgiving For Shoppers Who Hate Their Families
Just in case you hate your family so much that you can't wait until 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving to pretend that shopping at Macy's, JCPenney, or Sears is more important than spending the holidays with your "loved ones," Kmart — the store you used to buy socks at before the Walmart opened in your area — has decided to open at 6 a.m. on Thanksgiving to give you shelter from nagging questions about your job, love life, hair, friends, and why you never call.

Sears Even More Doomed Than Usual, Considers Spinning Off Auto Centers And Land's End
As anyone who has read Consumerist or casually browsed any business section knows, Sears is not doing well. Our ongoing joke for years has been that Sears is a vast anti-capitalist prank, since no business that's actually out to make money could stay so institutionally awful for so long. Today, the company announced that two of its most viable divisions may get kicked out of the nest: Lands' End and its auto centers. [More]
18 Photos That Prove The Impending Demise Of Sears
As we've often discussed on this site, Sears doesn't seem to want to sell merchandise to customers anymore. They're apparently more interested in selling the real estate that their stores sit on. We know many talented and dedicated Sears employees, but the big picture remains grim. Want concrete proof that will make you sad? You could visit your local store, or just look at these pictures.

Man Holds Protest Vigil Outside Of Sears Over Radiator Warranty
The nice thing about being retired is that it gives you lots of time to pursue old or new hobbies. You could plant an expansive garden, take up woodworking, do volunteer work, or play bingo. Then there's what a 70-year-old Idaho man is doing: spending 6-8 hours a day picketing a Sears store in Virginia. [More]
Sears Settles With New York Over Deceptive Refunds
For more than two years, Sears offered "Come Back Cash" promotions that rewarded customers with Sears gift cards for purchases over certain qualifying thresholds. But if a customer returned an item, they would have the proportionate value of that gift card deducted from the refund, even if the total value of the purchase was still above the threshold for meriting a gift card.

Sorry: Sears Won't Be Giving Members $6,000 In Points For Purchasing $45 Worth Of Stuff
Typos can be quite harmless at best (No, this is not he best post over, it's the best post ever, etc), and disastrous at the worst. Right in the middle there's just plain embarrassing, an area Sears is inhabiting today after sending an email to its Shop Your Way rewards members touting an offer of $6,000 worth of points just for purchasing $45 worth of kids' products. The deal is a lot less exciting than all that. [More]
Sears Lost Even More Money This Quarter Than Experts Expected
No one with any sense of how capitalism works would expect the profit and loss numbers out of Sears Holdings Corporation this week to be good. It turns out, though, that the company lost even more money in the second quarter of 2013 than experts had anticipated, and needs serious help to get out of its downward slide. [More]
Sears Sells Cabinets Full Of Sensitive Employee Info At Office Liquidation Sale, Tells Buyer To Leave Files On Loading Dock
For some of us who buy used furniture, there's always the hope that you'll uncover a copy of the Colonel's Secret Recipe, the original Coca-Cola formula, or maybe a print of the director's cut of Highlander 2: The Quickening. One Chicago man recently purchased some old file cabinets from Sears and discovered something not quite exotic, but very sensitive, when he discovered hundreds of employee records inside. Complicating matters, no one at Sears seemed to care. [More]
Would You Buy A $33,000 Rolex Watch From Sears?
When you shop at Sears, what are you looking for, usually? Some kind of appliance, a set of tools, perhaps a lingering sense of dissatisfaction for the whole retail experience, that kind of thing. As for designer handbags and flashy watches that cost more than the annual salary of many Sears shoppers? That's not the usual fare. Not anymore: Bring on the $33,000 Rolex watches and the $4,000 designer purses, says Sears CEO Eddie Lampert, issuing instructions from his Florida bastion. [More]
Buy A Plan From Sears Home Services, Get Even Less Service Than Before
Doug was working from a false assumption. He thought that the entity called "Sears Home Services" actually had the ability to diagnose and repair home appliances. Maybe someone around the office does, but none of the technicians who came out to work on his Kenmore washer and dryer seemed to know how to fix it. They were happy to sell him a service plan to cover the expense of those fruitless visits, though. [More]
Sears Re-Announces Recall Of Dehumidifiers Because No One Prefers Fires Over Humidity
Would you rather have a humid living environment, or one that's on fire? Ding ding — we're pretty sure the owners of 800,000 dehumidifiers sold by Sears would agree with you. The retailer is again reminding consumers of a recall for a product line that had issues last summer, again, over fires linked to using the Kenmore dehumidifiers. Now might be a good time to check on your dehumidifier. [More]
10 Things We Learned This Week About Why Sears Is So Terrible
In our posts about Sears, we often observe that the company seems like an anti-capitalist prank, a retail giant that thrashes around aimlessly until the real estate market picks up. It turns out that we were kind of half right. Manifesto-writing Sears Holdings chairman Eddie Lampert has organized the company into battling units that compete with each other for a dwindling pile of money. [More]
Where Is The Item I Sent Back To Sears? Don't Ask Sears Or UPS, They Don't Know
What ring? Victoria ordered a ring from Sears, but wasn't happy with it and sent it back. That's the whole point of the return process, right? Only the point isn't supposed to be that the item disappears into the ether and the retailer shrugs. At least we'd like to think so. [More]

For whatever reason, the MAXX digital express card with my Mobile Rocket doesn't seem to be recognized by my MacBook. Worked fine a couple days ago. It has no trouble recognizing my ESATA card, but the MAXX card has quit coming up. Maybe this is a problem bigger than the card, but since the ESATA card pops right up with nothing connected, I imagine that the MAXX should be recognized, without any other hardware present. Anyone else have this problem? I assume that ordering a new MAXX card is the obvious thing to try, but I kinda need the Rocket to work a lot sooner than that (like now).
I've tried restarting, logging in as different users, etc, but no luck.
Any experience or advice would be much appreciated!

We can't figure out why JLH is single. She's beautiful and seemingly nice. But we'll take a wild guess: it must be her incessant references to being unattached. From vajazzling her va-jay, to allegedly stalking men, and telling Ellen Degeneres she'd like a piece of newly single Adam Levine, J. Love is more boy crazy than a Catholic school girl.
Her latest confession: "I carry McCormick's Pure Vanilla Extract — the baking kind — and dab it on my neck. Men are attracted to the scent! One time, I put it on and four different guys were like, 'You smell amazing!'"
Because, ya' know what they say, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, and also through stalking and putting rhinestones all over your vagina and letting the world know about it! I mean, we all know there is no other reason to exist and smell good than for men, amiright, ladies? Excuse me, I need to get back to baking a pie in lingerie soon, but before I do, here are the best quotes/incidences of J. Love's raging singleness:
"I always have my eyes out. I just read two days ago that Adam Levine is single again… I'm just saying… We would be cute." -as recently told to Ellen on the Ellen Degeneres show.
"I love Booty Parlor's Kissaholic Aphrodisiac Breath Spray. You never know when a makeout moment is coming!" -when asked what's in her handjob handbag, US Weekly.
"Okay, Husband Locator app, you cost $39.99, and led me to a VFW, but I believe in you." -via Twitter.
"I was looking for something pop culture to tweet about… Things got blown out of proportion… I have nothing to say except I'm totally single!" -her response to Ryan Seacrest in regards to the "stalking" incident with The Bachelorette's Ben Flajnik.
"I've literally, in my entire life I've had two guys come up to me and ask me out. Other than that I have had to go and try to like spend time with them, or sort of start the conversation, basically like spell it out in a Sharpie, like, you know?" -in an interview with Dark Horizons.
"I like cats. I used to have a lot of cats." -in an interview with Talk Talk.
And finally: JLH goes on Lopez Tonight to tell the world about her vajazzled va-jay:

Australian retailers are entering into the Christmas season with high spirits, but few expect to see more than 2% of sales from their online channel, according to a new Deloitte report.
The Christmas Retailers' Survey 2012 found many interesting trends regarding the current state of retail in Australia, yet the key issue within the findings appeared to be that online is still not a top priority for retail heads.

Things aren't looking great across the Asia-Pacific region in terms of digital marketing as new figures indicate that marketers in APAC may be lagging behind when it comes to ROI metrics, talent and digital strategies.
These findings come from a new report called Digital Marketing Performance Dashboard 2012, which was conducted by Adobe and the CMO Council.

Click Frenzy launched yesterday evening but, as the mainstream press seem to be eager to make noises about, the first few hours were hit by technical difficulties, which many consumers found to be a frustrating experience.
But, what many people are generally overlooking is that there was an unprecedented demand for the event, with reportedly 5% of the Australian population (some 2m users) landing on the Click Frenzy site in the first few minutes – something that seems to have been genuinely unexpected and underestimated.
We caught up with some industry experts on the frontline of e-commerce in Australia, to get their take on the turn of events…

Group-buying seems to consistently experience conflicting states of flux - from reported positive growth, through to states of decline - so it's arguably difficult to identify the current condition of this segment in the digital industry.
However, according to a new report by Telesyte, Groupon has taken the lead as the most used group buying site, travel has become the most popular deal category for consumers and the group buying market looks like it really is moving away from a decline.

As you may have read recently, Australian businesses have been lagging behind their foreign counterparts when it comes to going online and using social media.

SO DELICIOUS® DAIRY FREE GOES COCONUTS fOR THE HOLIDAYS
Eugene, OR, June 28, 2011 – Turtle Mountain, the makers of So Delicious® Dairy Free products, including So Delicious® Coconut Milk Beverage and other truly delicious coconut milk-based products, introduces two very merry seasonal beverages for 2011. This drinkable duo is tasty and offers two great options for revelers looking to watch their fat and sugar intake.
Start celebrating with So Delicious® Dairy Free Coconut Milk Nog. This is a vegan Nog – no eggs here! Made with organic, non-GMO verified coconuts, So Delicious Coconut Milk Nog has only 3 grams of fat per serving, and these are plant-based fats, which are rich in Medium Chain Fatty Acids (MCFAs). Remember, not all fats are created equally. The body processes MCFAs differently, as they are not stored in the adipose tissue like other saturated fats. MCFAs actually burn as natural energy.
What couple has the best taste this holiday? Chocolate and mint, of course, and you can enjoy them guilt free with So Delicious® Dairy Free Mint Chocolate Coconut Milk Beverage. Also made with organic, non-GMO verified coconuts, this drink satisfies chocolate desires with only 50 calories and 6 grams of sugar per serving.
Both beverages will be available for a limited time in quart sizes in the refrigerated sections of retailers nationwide in late October 2011. These dairy-free beverages are soy-free, gluten-free, vegan and will retail at around $2.99.
If you are looking for a delectable way to please your family, try this recipe for our So Delicious Vegan Nog French Toast! Perfect for a festive holiday breakfast or brunch, and so delicious, you won't even need maple syrup!
2 ripe bananas
2 cups So Delicious® Coconut Milk Nog
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
8 slices hearty whole-grain, sourdough, or gluten-free bread
coconut oil
cinnamon sugar
Blend bananas, coconut nog, cinnamon, and vanilla in a blender and pour into a pie plate or wide bowl. Heat a griddle or skillet coated with a thin layer of coconut oil. Gently dip the bread slices, one at a time into the plate or bowl, letting slices soak up mixture for a few seconds, then carefully turn to coat the other side. Transfer bread slices to griddle or skillet, heating slowly until bottom is golden brown. Turn and brown the other side. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, if desired, and serve hot with (or without syrup) and fresh berries. Serves 4.
Based in Eugene, Oregon since 1988, privately held Turtle Mountain provides consumers with healthier alternatives to dairy-based foods and beverages. All products are 100% plant based with no artificial sweeteners, trans-fats or hydrogenated oils, and most are made with certified organic ingredients. Turtle Mountain sells its products including dairy-free frozen desserts, beverages, "yogurts," "coffee creamers," and probiotic smoothies under the brands So Delicious® and Purely Decadent®.

Terminal (OS X)
Terminal 2.2 running the top program under Mac OS
Developer(s) | Apple Inc. |
Stable release | 2.4 (326) |
Operating system | OS X |
Type | Terminal emulator |
License | Bundled with OS X |
Website | http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/ |
Terminal (also referred to as Terminal.app) is the terminal emulator included in Apple's OS X operating system.[1]
It originated in OS X's predecessors, NeXTSTEP and OPENSTEP.
A terminal emulator is a purely text-based system, in contrast to the general user experience of OS-X, which is graphical. A terminal emulator provides an environment for Unix shells, which allows the user to interact with the operating system of any Unix-like computer in a text-based manner through the command line interface to the operating system.
Terminal.app is used to access the system of the Mac on which it is running, and, is used to access any other unix-like system. On the Mac, Terminal.app is used by those users who need to access that Mac's operating system at a low level, and, it is used generally by developers, programmers, etc., as a general-purpose terminal emulator, as on any other Unix-like computer.
Users of Terminal.app may modify a setting which tells it to declare its terminal type. It does this by setting the TERM environment variable which is used by applications running within the terminal. The preferences dialog for Terminal.app in OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) provides these choices: ansi, dtterm, nsterm, rxvt, vt52, vt100, vt102, xterm, xterm-16color and xterm-256color. These choices differ from OS X 10.5 (Leopard) by dropping the xterm-color and adding xterm-16color and xterm-256color. Doing this does not change the behavior of Terminal.app in any other way. Despite the names in the menu, Terminal.app's behavior does not match xterm.[2]
Terminal.app features include tabs and customization of fonts and colors.
The defaults command is often used to set hidden settings via the shell and is only found in Nextstep-derived systems like OS X.

ELBRIDGE -- Tuesday night, Richard and Deborah Reeves walked around their home looking at the incredible damage left behind by a powerful storm. Violent winds uprooted a 70 foot tree in the front yard, tossing it onto their home.
"The wind just kicked up. It was going every which way," said Richard Reeves. "Then we heard the crack." Reeves said that's when they realized the tree was coming down on the house.
As the storm passed, the clean up process began along Reeves Road in the Town of Elbridge. Remnants of the storm like tree limbs and leaves were scattered across the road and lawns. Nearby on Hollis Path, a downed tree blocked traffic from crossing the street.
"It was intense," said Deborah Reeves. "Everything started flying and I was looking at the chicken coop thinking I hope the chickens are okay!"
The Reeves don't know how much damage was done, or how much it will cost to fix it. They say they are just happy no one was hurt.

As the previous reviewer Gwen says below.....this is genius. I've been having issues with my mascara flaking over the course of the day. I had tested out several HE and LE mascaras and they all seemed to leave flakes by mid-afternoon. Besides, I really do love my Chantecaille faux cils mascara.....it's like Clinique's Naturally Glossy, only on steroids. It's so very black but still looks great on my very blonde lashes. This Clarins literally seals the deal. As an earlier poster suggests, I do let my mascara dry down prior to applying this gel. No color change.....nothing obvious UNTIL later in the day, when you recheck in the mirror and there are NO FLAKES. Fabulous!

This product is genius! I loathe waterproof mascaras, and this allows me to wear my Diorshow Black Out (non waterproof) and not worry about it smudging all over my under-eye area. I find that it works best once the mascara is dry, to set your mascara in place. I tried it once on my brows, but didn't like how it worked there. It was too much and flaked, but works wonderfully on my lashes. I don't know how I lived without this!
Amazing. I always get flakes or smudges after wearing mascara even for a few hours, no matter what brand, high end or cheap. After putting this product on I've had 10 hours of flake and smudge free eyes. It is a little difficult to remove, but this is expected as it makes mascara budge-proof. I will definitely keep using this product.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
PROS; Does what it's supposed to; makes my mascara last. Seals my mascara without making it look any different than when I applied the mascara. Doesn't change my mascara color at all; I like a very "black" black look. Allows me to wash off the mascara easily at night, when I want it to come off. Doesn't make my curl flatten at all.
CONS: Price isn't the cheapest. I you over apply it can leave a greyish film on the mascara
APPLICATION TIPS: You don't need to apply much of this to keep the mascara from smearing/smudging. I put just a bit on the top of the lashes too. I love putting this on top of Milani Runway Lashes for great volume/length
In the minority here. I have not found this to be 100% bulletproof as far as smudging. Also it's a b**** to remove. Multiple applications of m/u remover, baby oil...it's like having krazy glue on my lashes. I like the wand and it's easy to apply. Other than that, crazy expensive for disappointing results. Will not repurchase.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I can honestly say that I have tried all of the drugstore mascaras out there in my quest for the perfect mascara. My criteria: 1. Must go on smoothly, with no clumping or spider lashes. 2. Must be dark enough that I only have to put on one or two coats max. I am blond and unfortunately my lashes match my hair. 3. Must stay put all day, with no flaking or raccoon eyes. 4. Must remove without too much effort. I haven't found a mascara yet that does all of that. I like Full and Soft, because it gives me a soft, natural look. However, it doesn't stay put all day. I wasn't thrilled with the waterproof version either. Then I found Clarins Double Fix. It truly has been the answer to my mascara prayers! I can still wear Full and Soft, and have my natural, soft lashes-and now no raccoon eyes! Double Fix goes on so quickly over my other mascara, and removes just as easily. I got caught in a rain shower the other day, and my lashes still looked great! It also doesn't feel stiff or spikey-another plus! I wish it were a little cheaper, but a tube lasts a while. It certainly is worth the investment.
5 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was highly skeptical of this product at first. I mean, I'm already shelling out for mascara, why should I bother with a separate product. But the truth is, a lot of mascaras are prone to smudging and flaking, high end to low end, water proof or not. It happens. There are mascara formulas that I love for their ability to lengthen, thicken, and separate, but that effect is ruined when the formula strays and rings your eyes.
This product does exactly as it claims. It's like magic. Every mascara I combine it with is magically transformed into The Most Waterproof Mascara of all Time. I've only used it so for at the gym and for long nights out, but I will report back after my upcoming trip to Thailand.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i would buy this until they stop making it. can't live without it. even when i cried, whatever mascara i used underneath this would not run down - that actually makes me smile :) Highly recommended.
Waterproof or not, mascara always smudges on me because of how oily my skin is. This stuff makes sure that nothing transfers onto my face no matter how greasy I am :)
No weird smell, no itchy/irritated eyes/skin, dries quickly without a film, holds a curl beautifully!
The only bad thing is that if you want to comb out your lashes after applying this, you should do it while it's still wet. The first time I used it, I combed my lashes after this dried and it made the tips of my lashes look lighter, I think there was a little string of translucent white-ish clear stuff at the tips.
Definite re-buy!!
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have never liked how awful waterproof mascara can be to work with or take off. I love a good mascara (currently using Dior iconic overcurl). I went to an event where I knew I would get really teary eyed - which I did. I looked in the mirror and absolutely nothing happened to my eye makeup, everything stayed. I will always have one of these on hand!!!!

Howdy from NoVa, Fuller, In your post on 7 Nov 2006, you asked In your readings, have you read any regimental histories? No, not yet. Some of my books are about units, such as Lincoln's Cavalrymen (Edward G. Longacre, 2000) and The Army of the Pacific, 1860-1866 (Aurora Hunt, 1951 and 2004). So far, my curiosity hasn't pulled me to the regimental level. Couple of reasons for that.
Thanks for raising such an interesting topic. From one bookoholic to another, Patty |

Widow, Aurora Hunt's book was and is very special to me. Her chapter on the California Hundred and Battalion was one of the deciding factors in me writing my book on the 2nd Massachusetts Cavalry. Tom |

Patty, If you've read my other posts, I'm sure you've seen my interest with the Ohio 78Th. I posted a link to their regimental history under the "Shiloh Letter" post. I've read some on the 20th Ohio and the 124Th Illinois. I am working my way to the confederate histories. It's all very interesting to me. Fuller |

Wow, Tom, what a great piece on Lowell, the gentle warrior. To think that he went chasing all over Mosby's Confederacy, right in my own neighborhood. Oakton is only three miles from Vienna on Chain Bridge Road. Even though Lowell wasn't involved in Mosby's fight with the 2nd Pa. Cavalry at Miskel's farm on 31 Mar 1863, you probably ran across an account of it in your research. Here I quote from Mosby's Rangers, Jeffry D. Wert, 1990, p. 51. Thomas and Lydia Miskel farmed a section of Loudoun County where Broad Run emptied into the Potomac River. A young couple, with a son and a daughter, the Miskels toiled on land which had nourished Virgininians for over a century. Their two-story L-shaped clapboard farmhouse dated from ca. 1750, with the wing added about 1810. Behind the house a hay barn provided storage for the harvests and shelter for the livestock. I'm not sure the farmhouse is still there. But my hairdresser knows its location. Her house faces the Potomac, only two blocks from where Broad Run joins the river. She has a pond in back and keeps a couple of horses. I told her that the Gray Ghost probably rode across her back yard when he escaped from the Miskels' place. Maybe Lowell chased him across her front yard at one time or another. Of course the whole area was excavated during construction of the house, but there may still be a few buttons or horseshoe nails down in the dirt. One of your sources, Battledrums and Geysers: The Life and Journals of Lt. Gnstaves Cheyney Doane, Soldier and Explorer of the Yellowstone arid Snake River Regions, looks fascinating. The Yellowstone and Snake are two of my favorite rivers in two of my favorite parks. Now the Bear Flag and Bay State book, that sounds cool too. Oh, dear, here I am thinking about buying more books! Thanks for all this great info. Patty |

Patty, Thanks for the kind words on the article. Me, Lowell and the 2nd Mass Cav go way back. Cheyney Doane had a fascinating life indeed. Check out this website for a short bio on him: http://www.lib.montana.edu/collect/spcoll/findaid/2211.html For awhile the 2nd Mass was brigaded with the 16th and 19th New York, a pair of regiments that Mosby's men held in low esteem. The story was that if they captured one of the New Yorkers they would strip him of his equipment, kick him in the pants and tell him "go back and get more!" One day Doane and two companions had rode out of camp to a farmhouse for a meal. The others left back reporting that Cheyney was sitting beore a loaf of bread and a crock of butter and vowed not to return till both were finished. Riding back on his own he was captured by Mosby's men and when asked what regiment he belonged to he promptly answered the 16th New York. Sure enough his horse and equipment were taken, he was given the obligatory kick and sent back for more gear. He evaded imprisonment but was busted down to private and had to pay for the gear. Tom |

Tom, I guess you could say those NY boys doane learn very fast. That kind of character had just what it took to explore the Yellowstone and Snake. Me, I can't imagine spending my whole life sitting on a McClellan saddle. At the Gettysburg muster in June, JD was telling us about the saddle. I commented to Shotgun, "Dad had one, and it's not very comfortable for a nine-year-old girl." At that, Shotgun whispered in his growly voice, "It's not very comfortable for a forty-year-old man, either." Dad bought the saddle in the early 1950s, Army surplus. What, you ask, Army surplus cavalry saddles in the 1950s? Yup. Fort Warren, near Cheyenne, was an Army post with cavalry until 1939 or so. Later it was an AF missile base. Fast leap forward, hm? Thx for the lead to the info on Cheyney Doane. He got his bread and butter, though, so he probably didn't mind getting kicked in the rear. Patty |

Evening all. Have read quite a few regimental histories in my day, and main reason why I like them is that they put the Civil War on a more personal level, as you are in the trenches and on the march with the common soldiers as they fought the battles. 3 of my faves in this category are: "Irish Rebels, Confederate Tigers: The 6th Louisiana Volunteers, 1861-1865" by James P. Gannon, 1998 Savas Publishing. "The Pride of the Confederate Artillery: The Washington Artillery in the Army of Tennessee" by Nathaniel Cheairs Hughes, Jr., 1997 LSU Press "Covered With Glory: The 26th North Carolina Infantry at Gettysburg" by Rod Gragg, 2000 HarperCollins. I could list more but these three are good starting points IMHO. Regards from the Garden State, Steve Basic |

This is a question to anyone who may have some information for me about a particular regiment... When I was a child, I spent a lot of time at my grandparents' vacation home in northeast Pennsylvania. I remember my grandfather taking me for some grand cemetery tours across the river in New York. I know we drove through Port Jervis, NY and through the surrounding areas. Anyway, I recall my grandfather telling me about the Orange Blossom regiment and I know we visited numerous gravesites of soldiers. My question is regarding the Orange Blossoms. Does anyone know the official number of that regiment? Also, is there a good book or other info related to this regiment available? Any help in answering my questions is greatly appreciated! Sarah |

Draco never liked to shop. He had house elves and servants for that specific reason. He hated having to go out and let people know that he still existed beyond what they saw in the papers. Draco liked being larger than life so he kept himself hidden from all that may or may not be looking to bring him back down to Earth. With a long and dramatic, mostly to himself, sigh, he was off to get his shopping done. Many things had happened since the war, but nobody seemed to remember that he was of noble blood and that just because his father more or less blackmailed him into joining the Death Eaters didn't mean that he should be treated like a lesser being. Though with all the glares here and there from very few witches and wizards, he felt the pressure that came with really existing in this world.
He needed a break from everything. Even having only gone to three of the ten shops he may or may not need to go to it was still a chore. He had a headache from listening to complaints about what his work is doing, what the Malfoy business is doing, from other nobles asking about his child that would never see his mother because she was a conniving money-grubbing whore. That and how he was taking the divorce, why he was given custody of Scorpius rather than have the young boy live with his mother. It was all very stressful and it seemed to only get worse because right here int he diner he was at, was none other than Harry Potter. Alone.
Harry Potter. Why him? Just being in the same room as the man made Draco unhappy and uncomfortable. But nothing could be done because this is the only place that served worthwhile tea!

My brother has been using HDLoader on a CD-R for about 2 months now, with a 30GB Maxtor HDD. It worked fine up until now, but lately every time he boots it, HDLoader reports that the HDD is unformatted and asks to format it. Maybe once in 50 tries it will actually work.
Eventually we got tired of it and told it to format the HDD. Then he went and installed Final Fantasy X through the PS2 and HDD's install thing. After it finished, the menu showed that the space was taken up, but the game list said there were no games installed. He reset the PS2 and it said the drive needed to be formatted again.
I tried the HDD in my PS2 and it worked perfectly. I could install games and all that. As soon as we put it back in my brother's PS2 it didn't work again.
Anyone have any idea? We've pretty much narrowed it down that it's solely my brother's PS2 that is not working right, as we tried switching network adapters, discs, PS2's etc and it will not work on my brother's PS2 at all, and works fine on mine. Tried doing it off of the memory card and it still does it too.

Square Dancing Fools Dancers keep a tridition alive on Friday and Saturday nights
Posted by Oregon Newslab • 03/25/12 • 9:01am
Tess Freeman/Oregon NewsLab

To an outsider square dancing might look like a complicated mess of lefts and rights, turns and swirls, stepped-on feet and country music. But when a person really knows the music, the rhythms and all the steps, that is when square dancing transforms into more than just a dance: it is a lifestyle.
Larry Lauderdale started dancing at Oregon State University. At first, it was a way out of a mechanical engineering class and a way to meet girls but square dancing slowly transformed into his passion. After Lauderdale's wife completed her lessons the pair took to the dance floor and joined the Wagon Wheelers in Corvallis, Oregon. Sixty-three years later, although Lauderdale's wife has passed on, he is still square dancing.
There are nine different square dancing clubs in the Eugene and Springfield area. Each club takes their turn hosting dances at the Emerald Square & Round Dance Center in Springfield or other venues around Oregon. Cuers like Roger Pultizer, Bob Ewing and Christine Corelli call out the moves guiding the dancers through each dance; Although, most of them have known the steps for decades.
Lauderdale, now 88, has witnessed square dancing decrease in popularity. Younger generations don't have the time or the interest in taking classes to learn the steps in order to participate in the dances. "When they think of classes they think of work," Lauderdale said. "But square dancing isn't work, it's fun."
And that's what every dancer that twirls around the Emerald dance center on Friday and Saturday night knows. Square dancing can put a smile on your face even when you are in the darkest of moods. The love these dancers feel for square dancing isn't the type of love that will fleet away within a couple years; it's the type that lasts a lifetime.
The Register-Guard doesn't necessarily condone the comments here, nor does it review every post.

You left out my favorite, Charles Spurgeon, actually w/in the reformed camp there is a wide range of beliefs regarding this issue. I have said this before, and I know that some of my calvinists brothers may take it wrong, but at the risk of being misunderstood I will continue to say it, and here it is, I don't know and have not met the God of calvinism. I have read and studied the scripture from a child, always and at all times Jesus and the scriptures have beckoned "all" to come to Him for salvation, I don't see, and no one has ever been able to show me where Jesus only died for a few, and the bibles message for all to come is repeated over and over and over again. Jesus said, If I be lifted up I will draw (a few of the elect) to me, no,no, no, He will draw all me unto me. For whosever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 1 John 2:2 "He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world" Romans 1:16 "the gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes." John 1:12 "But to all who believe on Him, who believed in His name, he gave the right to become the sons of God." Why did He come to this planet? Jesus said, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost" which is all of us. I see nothing of a God that picks and chooses among mankind, the invitation is for all, that is what is reinforced over and over in the scripture. 1 Timothy 2:3-4 "This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth." God wants all men to be saved, that is what he says, forgive me if I don't accept some idea about He only wants some men, that is contrary to what God just said, He wants all men to be saved. Can you see some poor soul that finds the word of God and reads these verses I have given, and God says, sorry you aren't one of the elect, "but God you said you would save anyone that called on your name" God says I'm sorry friend but you should have gone to a reformed church to find out that "all" doesn't always mean "all" Or how about the opposite. Hitler being one of the "elect" gets to heaven, has a look around and says, Hey God what am I doing here, I don't deserve to be here, in fact I don't want to be here, God says well hold on there a minute Adolph, God checks his list, nope there's no mistake you are one of the "elect" you're supposed to be here. I am a simple man, I just simply believe what Jesus says. I accepted his plan for salvation, no one forced me, I could have just as easily rejected, people reject God's plan for salvation everyday and end up in the fires of Hell. The invitation for salvation is for all just as Jesus said. He doesn't want any to perish, just as He said. |

RE: Does God need us? and Why does he love us?
I repeat: You do realize that Calvinists are for people getting saved too, right? Also, you do realize that Calvinists do not believe that people who want to go to heaven are prevented from doing so because they are not elect or that people who don't want to go to heaven are forced to because they are elect? Have you heard a Calvinist on this forum present that view? Calvinists believe that a person who does choose to believe in Christ is elect, and that a person that ultimately chooses not to believe in Christ is not elect. We may disagree on why someone chooses one way or the other or why they are ultimately elect, but we don't disagree on who would be elect in these cases. Finally...you say "actually w/in the reformed camp there is a wide range of beliefs regarding this issue." That is not true regarding Calvinists wanting people to get saved. Either a person wants people to be saved or they do not. The vast majority of Calvinists hope that many people are converted to faith in Christ. Again, this works just like someone's believing that a "few" in one sense will find the narrow path to life does not prevent them from still desiring many to find the path. Also, I agree that you may be able to find websites or sects within Calvinism who represent the view you put forward of Calvinism, but these represent a minority and fringe group. The vast majority of popular Calvinist pastors, authors, and seminary professors want people to be converted to Christ. If these fringe persons are not represented on this forum (and I have not heard someone say something like that yet), why are you arguing with us as though we believe those things? At those moments, we agree with you (the moments when you are saying that you want people to be saved and that the gospel invitation should be given to all). we are all a little looney |

I have read and studied the scripture from a First off I'm not Arminian. I am a christian having "accepted" God's plan of salvation, I was not forced or coerced into accepting God's plan for mankind, I of my own free will "accepted" this plan of my complete and own freewill, God having never twisted my arm. I was drawn by the Holy Spirit "If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto me" So I was drawn precisely as every man is drawn, exactly as Jesus says, but I unlike many others did not "reject" this drawing. Please don't misunderstand, yes God died for all and w/in that all, certainly is His elect. Unlike the wrong teachings of many in the reformed camp (my opinion) the elect are not pre-selected by God, frankly (I really don't want to be insulting to anyone) how anyone could believe this in view of the mountains of scriptures to the contrary is beyond me. I have said many times, for every verse a calvinist can provide to support calvinism I can provide a dozen supporting for whosoever will. But anyway very simply, when God's speaks about the elect, understand He knows the end from the beginning, He is not bound by time, He is God and Lord over all. A very good example of this is at Revelation 13:8 Speaking of Jesus as "the Lamb that was slain from the foundation of the world." How can this be, we know that Jesus went to the cross of Calvary some 2000 years ago, right? Take it up with God, His Word says that Jesus was slain from the foundation of the world. So when God Almighty speaks about the "elect" He is only expressing his omniscience. He knows who will "accept" Him. So there we have the elect. Predestination is even easier. For probably the best explanation of predestination we must go to the calvinists favorite book of the bible. Romans 8:29 "For those God foreknew (the elect) He also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son" So if you of your own free will accepted God's plan for salvation of mankind and called upon Jesus for your salvation, you are one of the "elect" God knew you were coming, but He didn't force you to. Now if you are one of the "elect" you are also "predestined" to be conformed to the image of His dear Son. I don't have all the answers about salvation, I don't know how it all works, it is mysterious to me, all I have to go on is God's Word and the Holy Spirit to guide me, based on my understanding of that Word I completely reject all five points of the man-made belief system known as calvinism. If calvinists knew grace like I knew grace, they would run from calvinism like a horse running out of a burning barn. |

RE: Does God need us? and Why does he love us?
This is basically pointless. You are redefining and relabeling things so fast I can't keep up. Either you don't know what "Calvinism" actually is, or you are building up a straw man on purpose. I quoted those same verses from Romans to you that clearly teach predestination and you have used them to deny it? You obviously are only interested in blasting "Calvinism" as you have created it, and not in a profitable discussion from the Scriptures. I made it clear I don't believe in limited atonement as described by the council of Dort, and that your understanding of foreknowledge is different than the accepted view of what it means. I sense much fundy argumentation in you, you draw emotion right into your arguments, but little in the way of consistent systematic thinking on the text of scripture as a whole, not just the verses you have plucked out and used to support your emotional response to how God "must" behave or you won't like him.

I feel you have grabbed onto the favorite 8 calvinism verses and run wild with them. (alittle sarcasm) I told someone here that I think just as much of my opinion as I do Calvin's, so for me to "blast" Calvin, as you said means nothing to me, I regard Calvin as a very seriously mixed-up scholar who is leading alot of folks the wrong way. I don't respect John Calvin's beliefs. All of the above said. Let's finish on a good note. I know you are a very serious and sincere follower of Jesus, if the Apostles got on each others nerves, you know we are bound to. If you in fact have "called" on Jesus Christ, as all of scripture teaches we must in order to be saved, and have received Him as your Savior, you are my brother in Christ, therefore you must put up with me and I you. These things I write unto you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. I "know" I have eternal life, I hope you all do as well. |

Goodness...what happened to this poor bird? Peacock meets metallic leather equals fashion faux pas. Although this creation comes from Fendi I am not sure it was their best effort. Convertible from larger handbag to clutch, their innovation stops there. And for $1,680 I am hopeful there are better options out there. Now, if you were attending a masquerade ball as a swan and needed a complimentary bag, this might be it. Otherwise, leave it on the shelf.

What witness?
Wed Apr 18, 2012 09:40
The question is what witness (a person who was there at the time) said that the tall man looked like Smith, could have been Smith, but wasn't sure it was Smith? What we have is a researcher who was not in Tombstone making the connection more than fifty years later.

The Hamlet at Westhaven Travel Tips
Hamlet at Westhaven Vacation Homes is the Premier Orlando Choice
Hamlet at Westhaven vacation homes is heaven's choice for a place to stay in Orlando when you don't want ot pack the family of ten in a hotel. These are not just homes: they are full blown luxury environments. When Orlando vacation rentals offers you a place to stay, it lacks nothing and you do have choices. Many have private pools and the interiors are to die for with added luxuries that may surprise you. Hamlet at Westhaven rental houses is a smart stop when you consider many are only minutes away from the Disney Theme Parks.
Disney, of Course . . . and Food?
Many Hamlet at Westhaven rental houses are near Champions Gate golf resort and thus, there is food. Well, of course there is a Subway. It could be what you need coming home exhausted from your tourist jaunts. However, you do have alternatives from Chili's to Zen's. Chili's offers great Mexican food like fajitas, quesadillas, and baby back ribs. Their prices are quite reasonable as well. Zen Restaurant is a little higher end and they serve dinner only. As you may guess, it is Asian and includes sushi. When you consider the fact that you decided to make it a vacation, check out the restaurant scene. When you get tired of someone else's food, you have a real luxury home that is entertainment in and of itself: with a kitchen.
Disney and Golf
Yes, you have both nearby. It is a possibility that the Disney stop will monopolize your time, especially with kids. That's why you rented a full size home. The beauty of Hamlet at Westhaven vacation homes lies in the fact that they are situated in a small "Old Florida" rural area. You are not stuck in the fray, but access to it is convenient. Treating yourself to this venue is like bringing Disney to your house, without the moving expense!

Original Trinity Hymnal, #670 Trembling soul, beset by fears, "Thy God reigneth!" Look above and dry thy tears: "Thy God reigneth!" Though thy foes with power assail, Naught against thee shall prevail; Trust in him, he'll never fail: "Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!" Sinful soul, thy debt is paid; "Thy God reigneth!" On the Lord thy sins were laid; "Thy God reigneth!" On the cross of Calvary, Jesus shed his blood for thee, From all sin to set thee free: "Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!" Seeking soul, to Jesus turn; "Thy God reigneth!" None that seek him will he spurn; "Thy God reigneth!" Wandering sheep the Shepherd seeks, And when found he ever keeps, For he slumbers not nor sleeps: "Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!" Join, ye saints, the truth proclaim, "Thy God reigneth!" Shout it forth with glad acclaim, "Thy God reigneth!" Zion, wake! the morn is nigh, See it break from yonder sky; Loud and clear the watchmen cry: "Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!" Church of Christ, awake, awake! "Thy God reigneth!" Forward, then, fresh courage take: "Thy God reigneth!" Soon, descending from his throne, He shall claim thee for his own; Sin shall then be overthrown: "Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!"

what the?... 9.25?
Nice figure.
Incomprehensible presentation, though.
i don't get it, and what's the stuff on the right? is that actually on the shirt?
3 because I like what I think you're trying to show us - would be higher if it was clearer!
I am more interested in your presentation than the actual shirt design. 2
I think it looks cool..
i think only the character and the small star on the left are on the shirt. i don't know why 9.25 is there, but i like the sleepwalker's expression and its feet.

I've always like the Twin Frozr cooler, this beauty is very very cool. One question, W1zzard, are you going to review an ASUS 7970 or 7950 DCII?
Dawwww.... :\ I like the OC abilities of this HD7950. Its phenomenal When you overclocked, did you set PowerTune to +20%?
Another win for MSI's PWM and Twin Frozr III implementations. I'm holding tight, but if I go 7950's, it'll likely be this. Asus, take note of this killer dual slot design..
TwinFrozr III series are good if run stock. But i was a bit disappointed when i noticed my HD6950 OC Power Edition OC won't overclock at all. Whatever i did, even tiny overclock it would result in GPU recovery or system lockup. Not instantly but always during the gaming. I hope the HD7000 series are going to be more OC friendly...
That's not TwinFrozr's fault and not MSI fault at all. You rolled a bad dice on the silicon lottery and got a badly binned chip. I bet that card atleast reaches 970core with 1.25v
I've had bad luck with a TFIII 6950, didn't unlock and OC was mediocre at best. Ultimately it is lottery, I doubt they have any sort of binning to select faster GPUs, and given AMD's VID binning and OCP, high leakage chip still might not OC well with software voltage tweak. This chip looked more like a lower leakage chip, didn't go far on stock but could take more voltage no problem. A higher leakage chip would've probably crashed after 1,2V like a lot of the 1,05V 7970's do. Maybe it's OCP kicking in? Maybe W1zzard could tell us the ASIC quality of the chip?
Yap, the MSI cooler is one of the best on the market and its only 2 slot. Still waiting for Sapphire Atomic/VapourX/Toxic, they should be pretty good too. BTW, I have the MSI lightning 6970 and it can do 1000Mhz on the core which is very high for a 6970. It performs better than the Asus Direct CUII but the Asus is a good card too.
Looks like all MSI did was add the TFiii cooler to it. $30 more for the cooler looks like a good value if one is just going to air cool. I hope MSI gets out a PE/OC TwinFrzr version with pumped up military class components and improved power phases.
Only thing i hate about TwinFrozr III is the fact it's VERY hard to clean. Yesterday i had some bizarre USB issues so i took my box apart and noticed it would be a good idea to clean the dust a bit. It turned out it's really hard to clean it. Blowing at it does very little and using the pointy attachment for vacuum cleaner did very little as well. I had to unscrew both fans so i could get closer with the pointy attachment. There were still some other parts where i couldn't clean it at all. Maybe a high pressure compressor would do it but not everyone have it at home...
Extremely important for me... My next card would be the 7950 or 660/670GTX depends... I'd really like to see a manufacturer who will innovate and will let us easily extract and clean the mechanism... It's such a pain... For cleaning Ι use a whole box of cotton buds for ears and much time. By the way, the usual question here is... This card which has extremely good cooling system or a reference 7970, since the difference is small... I like a solid reference design and seemingly at least, the new ATIs have a good one. 80% I'd prefer an untouched 7970 and I wouldn't apply any overclock at all.
Vacuum cleaners arent recommended for electronics, the static electricity on the nozzle of a vacuum is horrendous. I use a 1" paintbrush to clean heatsinks, or you can get a can of compressed air if its really bad.
From the review "MSI's cooler works wonder, when compared to the AMD reference design. While it's not as quiet as other HD 7950 designs (PowerColor PCS+), it is still a huge improvement over the standard cooler." Wizzard , how many non -reference have you tested? Looks like you only tested the powercolor and MSI so far. You give the impression the twin frosr 3 is noisy when its much quiter than the Asus Direct CUII. Even under load I cant hear my MSI fan at all.
I can testify to MSI twin frozr iii being quieter than Asus DCII. Had asus before but exchanged it to MSI. at 50% the fan on Asus starts to get quite loud. Not so much so for MSI.
Nice review, as usual Look's like a good product, never owned anything MSI but this look's interesting
After further research I also spotted that the TPU MSI TFIII HD 7950 also sports some upgraded pink capacitors. Also I just found a photo of an even better looking MSI TFIII HD7950 at EK Cooling. Take a look at this. That has improved pink capacitors all the way around. Looking good.
I found it for sale on the German Amazon site. Tried to order it but unable to ship to USA. http://www.amazon.de/MSI-V276-013R-Radeon-Grafikkarte-Speicher/dp/B00778DUJ6/ref=pd_ecc_rvi_cart_1
No idea if someone is interested in this but... MSI R7950 Twin Frozr 3GD5/OC Radeon HD 7950 3GB 38.... I guess I'll get one, the card is looking so good!
This card @ $330 after rebate is a good choice? W1zz do you think the cards out now are newer chips/better binned? Would be nice to have similar result as this but with lil' less volts
+ one to using a paint brush, I clean everything with them and it pretty much gets things spotless. If there's anything left I rinse the heatsink with alcohol
