ANNALS OF AUTHORSHIP about the writer Lynn Vincent, who has ghostwritten or co-written extraordinarily successful nonfiction aimed at a Christian audience. Vincent's most well-known book is "Going Rogue," which she ghostwrote for Sarah Palin, but she's also written best-selling books, like "Heaven Is For Real" and "Same Kind of Different as Me," that are centered on explicitly Christian themes. Vincent had an unsettled childhood: she was raised by a neglectful mother who moved them from Florida to Germany to Hawaii. The atmosphere was hedonistic and permissive: in Hawaii, the house welcomed a steady stream of visitors who often brought drugs (the name of the family dog, Pakalolo, is the Hawaiian word for marijuana). She and her sister were molested, and Vincent eventually ran away, finally settling with her maternal grandmother in Alabama and becoming a Christian. She became a staff writer for World, a Christian magazine, and since then has created a successful career as a ghostwriter. The people in Vincent's books make a journey, from spiritual torment to happy routine, which is similar to Vincent's own. She is now writing a book under her own name, based on the experiences of Army soldiers in Afghanistan who discovered that some of the Afghan personnel on their base were actually Taliban infiltrators.

It works although one of the plastic wing nuts broke almost right away. The metal arms are really uncomfortable on the back so I'm going to pad them with a piece of foam tubing..split down the middle.

Agents made the gun inoperable. As Kamali began to leave, he was taken into custody. Kamali is currently on probation for armed robbery and armed burglary and is considered a violent felon which prevents him from owning a firearm or ammunition.

Cha Cha 2000 - Autobahn
Happy Christmas to you all. And what better way to celebrate than by posting a Kraftwerk cover. This was a 10" single from 1996, looks to be a side project from Mick Derrick and Pat Marsden of Prolapse. The cover of Autobahn is faithful enough, but using a synth that's making think of Lord Rockingham's XI Hoots Mon. Which didn't even use a synth. You'll know what I mean when you hear it. Possibly.

Haha, was only directed to your blog as I was looking for the King of Luxembourg album. We didn't actually use a synth on this it was a stylophone. The other instruments are indian banjo, bagpipes, spoons, accordian, mandolin, bodhran, indian tabla and much much more. keep up the good work

Will come back and look at your blog in more detail when I'm not meant to be doing a job application (!) but stumbled by here after looking at a Prolapse page.
I bought this 10" single when it came out but had no idea it was a Prolapse side project. I fell for Prolapse after hearing 'Psychotic' Now' on Radio1 and was dead chuffed to meet Scottish Mick and Linda after seeing them support Pulp at Keele Uni in 1995. Mick was getting grief from the crowd and came back with a JAMC retort!
Thanks for some great memories and hope to drop by again soon! - 17 August 2011 14:36

Thanks for this post, great to read what Mick's written. I was the Engineer on this session, and remember the Stylophone being recorded through a Marshall JCM valve guitar amp. Recorded on 16 track analogue and Bedrock Studios Leicester, which at the time was in the basement with Archway's Rehearsal rooms. (now a nightclub)

Hell of the North No.4
All photos Jonathan Hines
The fourth edition of Rapha's homage to Paris-Roubaix, the UK's very own Hell of the North, yet again proved a gloriously bumpy, muddy and leg shattering day out. This year's parcours included two never-before-seen sectors of dirt and gravé and a new finishing venue where a lot of very tired but satisfied riders enjoyed beer, chips and the sight of Fabulous Cancellara stealing victory at L'Enfer du Nord for a third time. Below are a few comments from some happy roulers:
The best yet. The espresso at the feed stop was pure class. Thanks Jack for keeping hold of my race cape, I'm glad I ditched it when I did, although I could have done with sweating out a few extra lbs (read stone)
@rapharacing great course for the Hell of the North, thanks again for the best feed station ever.#performanceprocycling

Fantastic day, great course, good organisation, many thanks.
Second that. HOTN gets better each time I do it. Big thanks to Jack and co.
Thanks Jack and everyone at Rapha - a really nice day out on the bike
Another great day out from Rapha. Many thanks to Jack and the team - best signs yet. Although special thanks goes to Rapha's breakdown service courtesy of Laura.
Great day out. Good route. And the new pub at the end was a good choice. Thanks to Jack, Laura and good to ride with Mark, Erwan, Mike, Jordan, Rob and Josh albeit briefly.
With thanks to Muc-Off for providing bike wash cleaning products.

Published: 10/18/2012 8:36 PM | Last update: 10/18/2012 11:17 PM Salthawks battle wind, Mac for 1-0 winIt took Hutchinson High just 17 minutes to score on Monday. And that was with a brisk wind - prevailing gusts, actually - in the Salthawks' faces.Yannick Ford's rocket from the top of the box ricocheted off the keeper and gave Hutch an early lead. In those conditions - and with the way the Salthawks have been playing - that was enough for them to hold on for a 1-0 victory over visiting McPherson, which entered Thursday's regular-season finale as the No. 8 team in the state.
That pressure - coupled with the conditions - was too much for the Bullpups to overcome. Their second loss of the season wasn't punitive. With a 14-2 record, they have wrapped up the No. 2 seed in the upcoming Class 4A regionals and will be playing home games for as long as they continue to win. "We knew coming in that this would be a tough game - it always is when we play Hutch," said McPherson coach Chris Adrian. "They play hard every night." And that's been the key to the Salthawks' recent tear. They enter Class 6A regional play with a 10-5-1 record, but that mark includes nine victories in their last 11 games. There aren't many teams that can claim such a tear. The 10 wins might only earn Hutch a No. 6 or 7 seed in the regional, meaning they're headed onto the road. But the way this team has been playing, there isn't a high seed in this tournament that relishes a date with Hutch. The regional seeds will be announced this weekend and the postseason begins on Tuesday. "I don't think many teams want to play us right now," said Hutch coach Brad Binns. "We're playing with a lot of confidence right now. The key to our success has been whether we can outwork the other team. We're bringing energy and effort and we're getting rewarded for it." Binns took a big chance on Thursday by opting to take go against the wind in the first half, thinking the emotion from the senior night environment might fuel his team through 40 minutes of gusty conditions against one of the best teams in the land. His gamble paid off when Ford took a pass to the left of the goal and launched a shot that found its mark. "I just shot it," he said. "I got lucky, but sometimes that's all it takes to win a soccer game." It took a lot more work. The Bullpups had their chances to score, but were turned away each time. Hutch junior keeper Bryce Davis was tested a few times, but was always up to the challenge.
"I am not disappointed with the way we played," Adrian said. "We had our opportunities. The wind was there for both teams, so you can't use that as an excuse, but it does change the way you do things."

Salford City Reds have made their first signing for 2013 after confirming the arrival from St Helens of second row forward Andrew Dixon on a three-year contract.
The 22-year-old Dixon, who made 20 appearances for Saints in 2012, linked up with his old back-row partner Matty Ashurst for the start of pre-season training this week.
"Andrew will do well for us," Reds coach Phil Veivers said. "He has a wealth of Super League experience from his time at St Helens; he's young and hard-running.
"He will fit in well with what we are trying to achieve next season."
Salford have lost seven members of last season's squad and Dixon is expected to be the first of at least five new faces once the club's proposed takeover is completed.

A Miami-Dade judge on Thursday tossed out a $3.1 million verdict against The Related Group developers only moments after a jury found the developers had wrongfully manipulated the zoning process in a 2007 condo deal.
The decision came after a month-long trial in a lawsuit filed by the Vizcayans, a support group for the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, who had accused Related and its partners of engaging in a conspiracy to win political support for a controversial waterfront condo project next to Mercy Hospital in Coconut Grove. The Vizcayans were seeking more than $1.3 million to recover the legal costs of their successful fight to overturn the Miami City Commission's approval of the project.
The jury sided with the Vizcayans, finding that the developers committed more than two dozen wrongful acts in pursuit of the projects — from behind-the-scenes meetings with city commissioners to secret deals to pay $8 million to win the support of nearby neighborhood groups.
But Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Daryl Trawick later threw out the jury's verdict and found in favor of the developers. He said the Vizcayans failed to prove that the developers' actions "targeted" the Vizcayans, and added that the developers' conduct was allowed under their rights to petition the government and go to court.
Related's lawyers, John Shubin and Israel Reyes, argued that the developers' actions were aimed only at winning approval for the three-tower project, not at harming the Vizcayans. Related's chairman, Jorge Perez, told jurors he was "totally surprised" when the Vizcayans publicly objected to the project. The Vizcayans feared the condo towers would obstruct views from the Vizcaya, a historic landmark.
Shubin and Reyes argued that the verdict would have essentially punished the developers for exercising their rights to petition the government for zoning and land-use changes.
"For a judge, doing the right thing and following the law are one in the same, and that's what Judge Trawick did in this case," said Reyes, himself a former judge.
But Maria Utrera, the jury foreperson, said she was puzzled by the judge's decision, which left some jurors weeping when they learned of it later.
"I'm really upset about it. I think that justice was not served," said Utrera, a computer programmer from Homestead. "We think they did manipulate the political system. The evidence showed that what they did was wrong."
Lawyers for the Vizcayans said they were disappointed with the judge's ruling, and they plan to appeal the judge's decision.
"The jury agreed with us totally," said Vizcayan board member John Hinson. "I would like to think the jury's verdict sends a message throughout the community that the actions by these defendants are wrong and shouldn't be tolerated."
The Vizcayans' lawsuit was brought under a novel legal theory known as the "wrongful acts" doctrine. They argued that the wrongful acts of the developers forced them to go court to challenge the city's zoning changes for the project. An appeals court later found that the zoning changes violated state law, and that the vote was tainted by improper communications between Perez and then-Miami Mayor Manny Diaz.

BOZEMAN - If the sequester cuts go into effect this Friday, the Bozeman School District will lose federal funding.
The school district estimates it will lose about $200,000 a year that normally would go to special education and programs for lower income children. The programs for lower income children would see cuts, but because of federal mandates, special education funding cannot be cut. So, money to pay for those programs would come from the general find.
"We'll have to make cuts in other areas to accommodate special needs funding," said deputy superintendent Steve Johnson.
There is no word yet on what might get cut. Any cuts would not take effect until next school year.

The machine was protected well.....
View showing the gantry
First off I want to say thanks to Dave Miller for all of his time, hard work and trouble shooting he did on his build. I for one have learned by just reading and watching his build.... and the talks we have had. I know he has more to do but maybe I'll be able to add some ideas not that my machine is here.
Now on to the new 4x4. After waiting 3 days short of 12 weeks I drove to the factory in IL which was only 54 miles from my studio and picked up my machine. The shipping department made a custom crate that would fit into my truck.
The crate was heavy and was able to use my tractor with loader to push it in.
The machine was protected well.....

Glueing up plywood to make extra 8020 beams for under the table. I don't feel the 3 are going to strong enough with a wood top
More details later, waiting for motors and 8020 for base,
Great Will !
Was sure hoping you would post a build log and am happy to see it.
I'm nearing the 8 week point on my wait but am still concocting plans in my head.
Hope everything goes smooth for you now.
Details on machine.....

Asus ET1611PUT-B001E all in one PC with touch screen
Missing when order was picked up
Instruction book
Dust covers for the Z bearings and not sure what else
Made wrong..... Router mount
I can deal with that. I do think they have fixed the backlash issue. I don't feel any play when I move the Z on the Y. Won't know for sure until the unit is together but so far so good.
Glad to hear that
Thanks for posting the pictures. I am so happy your machine has arrived. I am really looking forward to seeing your cut.
It will be interesting to see your machine when it arrives. Sometimes being first is not a good thing.
Its a good feeling when you are making sawdust.
I was able to butcher some pine on the weekend. Identified a few things I have to get better at. Like setting Z heights. I think I am going to move my Y and Z limits together as a OR function so I can free up a input pin for a Z height probe. I thknk that is better than hoping I can get my SS to work.
Dave, I used to use some thin paper to set my Z 0 but now use a simple touchplate that sets the Z 0 position to the top of the workpiece. Simple and works great.
Bob not wanting to hijack Will thread.
I am working on a touch plate.
I have been using up some pine scraps.
Paper is OK but hard to set V carve bits. Especially if you go down too far and forget to move X and Y. You compress the pine. ;-)

Everybody jumps without reading the facts. First, the new attraction is planned for 2014 if the deadline for ordering can be met. If we have not come up with additional water reserves and the drought continues, we will all be digging water wells. Second, if the waterpark is to continue to be profitable and competitive, it must update and expand. The addition planned would be attractive to teens and adults and is not found in the other parks in the region. Third, the money is coming from the park reserves and 4b. The park reserve money can only be spent on the park. Fourth, tourism ranks among the top industries in Texas.
Why would anyone want to come to the hottest spot in Texas? Answer: a unique waterpark. Lastly, I have been a lifelong resident and I thought I kept up on city happenings. I have never found any substance to the claim that a highway contractor offered to dredge Lake Wichita for free to use the dirt on the freeway.
I don't believe the EPA would sign off due to the decades of contaminants in the dirt and I am no engineer, but I wonder how stable silt dirt would be for a highway? Is the dredging offer true or an urban myth? Someone come up with the answer. I get tired of hearing about the city refusing the offer.
Let us take the monies out of the equation and concentrate on the more important item, water. It would be very unlikely that by 2014 we would have enough of a potable water supply(needed for pools) to waste it on this presumed water attraction. It will take numerous years of above average rainfall to relieve this drought.

DHAKA: Girls unnecessarily clutter their beauty closet with various cosmetic products. Instead of carrying heavy bag, you should have few must-keep make-up items in your handbag which give you a flawless and natural look within few minutes. Here we mention 7 essential beauty products that all girls should have every time and everywhere they go.Body ButterBody butter is an intense version of the traditional body cream and will help to combat dryness in key problem areas like elbows, shins and ankles. For best results, apply after a bath or shower.A Good DeodorantIt's crucial in every girl's everyday beauty routine. Deodorant should effectively combat body odour, but it shouldn't cause irritation, redness or dryness in the process.CleanserA good cleanser will cut through grease and wash dirt out of your pores. Avoid anything with added perfume.MoisturizerAlways keep a good moisturizer that suits your skin and leave your skin looking and feeling fresh and supple. Pick one with an added uv-protector for maximum effect.Eye CreamA good eye cream has an effective anti-aging ingredient, helps to moisturize and will also participate in combating puffiness, Store yours in the fridge for extra freshness on application.Eye mascaraSlick of mascara and a swipe of lip gloss should be all the make up a healthy face needs.EyelinerPick eyeliner with a velvety texture that goes on easily in a single swipe. Opt for a brown tone during the day; black is very harsh and better suited to lower lighting.BDST: 0933 HRS, MAY 25, 2012Edited by: Quamrun Nahar Shumi, Newsroom Editor

I'm trying to decide whether I should have the homepage set to show me Most Popular (x length of time), or Newest. Because one means I get to see good art consistently, while the other means I'll be more likely to see up-and-coming artists who are good, but not popular yet.
Also, because I know someone will say it: I'm too lazy to do more than scroll down, skim the stuff on the first page, and then move on. So doing both isn't an option I'm going to go for :rolleyes:

Vinales valley is an absolute must see if visiting Cuba. It has spectacular scenery. It is located to the west of Havana. Not only do you see beautiful scenery, you also can experience "authentic" Cuba. There are tobacco farms in the area along with some good local dining.
No matter where you go, Vinales will rank as one of the most beautiful places you will ever see. The view of the valley is breathtaking with steeply rising hills and mountains dotting a farmland covered plain. If you take the one day tour, as I did, you will begin with a view of the entire valley, followed by a... More
The valle de Vinales is a beautiful area with lots to do. I'm so glad I went as i don't think I would feel like I had really seen Cuba if I had just gone to a resort. Make sure you take a horse riding trip and visit a tobacco farm. Its what this place is all about!
Valle de Vanales is rural Cuba at its best. Limestone caves and formations, tobacco farms, and small town rural Cuba. Only ~3 hour drive from Havana. It's a must see if you visit Cuba!
i had the best time in vinales, what a btf place...i just wished i stayed few days there, but unfortunately i payed an excursion with Havana tours and it was one day only, i definitely plan to come back.
Definitely a place to visit if You travel to Cuba, The whole Vinales is beautiful and people friendly, You should not miss it. You can explore it by car, bike or just walking. Visit tobacco farms and caves... Definitely should stay in Casa particulares, like in whole Cuba. And don't forget to taste the cheese pizza, I KNOW You can't... More
Vinales is just like it looks in the pictures - lush, green and tranquil. We went in rainy season, so there were a few storms and showers but they passed quickly and generally the weather was hot and humid like the rest of Cuba, so we were very glad to be staying somewhere with a pool. The town is small... More
I love Vinales. The people, the culture, the landscape... it all combines to create a place that I will continue to visit for the rest of my life.
We only did a day trip, 10 of us hired a van and headed out from Havana early. Long but comfortable drive and we had arranged to visit a house/casa which takes guests but was happy to accommodate us as day trippers. The scenery is absolutely stunning. In 6-7 hours we did a 3 hour horse trek, visited deep caves,... More

Lynn Spellman discusses the Underground Railroad in Stark County
Send a link to a friend
[September 10, 2013] The town of Toulon in Stark County had a history that the residents never discussed when Lynn Spellman was growing up there. Spellman, a Lincoln resident and retired Lincoln College professor, spoke about Toulon's past at the August meeting of the Logan County Genealogical & Historical Society.
Spellman was at a loss to explain why this important piece of Stark County history was never discussed during her childhood.
The area of Illinois where she grew up had a strong abolitionist tradition. Knox College in Galesburg was founded in the early 19th century as an abolitionist institution, just down the road from Spellman's home in Toulon.
Currently, the college has a large library of Underground Railroad information and is home of the Knox College Underground Railroad Freedom Society. Spellman went through much of this collection to create her presentation.
During the time the Underground Railroad existed, three important hubs were in Illinois: Quincy, Galesburg and Princeton. Runaway slaves would come up the Mississippi River from the south or cross it from the slave-holding state of Missouri on their quest for freedom. Initially they headed for the river city of Quincy. Then they would be funneled by abolitionists through a web of routes to Galesburg and then on to Princeton. The slaves' ultimate destination was Chicago, with the hope of boarding a ship to cross into complete freedom in Canada.
Being between Galesburg and Princeton, Stark County and Toulon were essential stops along the Underground Railroad.
The runaway slaves traveled at night to protect themselves and their rescuers in Illinois. Early in the 19th century, Illinois adhered to the Fugitive Slave Act, which permitted bounty hunters to track slaves and receive a reward for their capture and return to slave owners in the south. Those aiding the slaves were subject to severe financial penalties and jail time if caught.
Stark County had three clusters of homes that provided safe haven for slaves traveling the Underground Railroad: West Jersey, Toulon and Elmira. The web of routes along the Underground Railroad provided many options for the slaves. If a member of an abolitionist family was suffering from an illness or if the family was under surveillance by authorities, the slaves would be shuttled along another link in the web of routes through Stark County.
The Underground Railroad in Stark County was active from the late 1830s until after the Civil War.
Spellman related the story of the Rev. Samuel Wright in Stark County. Wright came to Illinois from New Hampshire, first settling in Canton and then moving to Stark County. He was a Presbyterian minister but also worked with the Congregational Church, of which Lynn Spellman was a member while growing up in Toulon.
[to top of second column]
Wright was a traveling preacher in Stark County, going to various places to perform his religious duties at area congregations that did not have a regular preacher. He also gave lectures on abolition, abstinence and astronomy. As such, he met a lot of people in the area and was able to facilitate the movements of the Underground Railroad. When his house was under watch by the authorities, he was able to signal his cohorts in the movement to use another route through Stark County for moving their precious cargo.
A little-known fact is that during the period before Illinois banned slavery within its borders, there were slave owners in the state, mostly in southern Illinois. Sometimes slaves there would escape and travel north toward Chicago, passing through Stark County.
Spellman related one story of a southern Illinois abolitionist who took a slave and her children north to Galesburg from southern Illinois to place them on the route of the Underground Railroad. The slave owner found out about this and pursued the runaways. He was able to capture the children and take them back to servitude in southern Illinois.
He then sued the abolitionist and won the case, a decision that reduced the abolitionist and his family to poverty because of the size of the financial judgment against them.
Participation in the Underground Railroad was a dangerous business for runaway salves and the abolitionists who helped them flee.
By the late 1840s, runaway slaves were traveling during the day and on public transportation through Stark County. This was a strong abolitionist area that was committed to the anti-slavery movement.
Spellman related that Wright kept a detailed journal of his travels along his religious circuit, a meticulous record that he kept for 50 years. The total number of volumes was 19 handwritten journals that are now at Knox College. Wright detailed his daily travel and submitted quarterly reports to his employers in the church. He often referred to his participation in the Underground Railroad in a type of code that hid his involvement.
Spellman ended her presentation with a quote from Wright's journal of 1858. He attended the Lincoln-Douglas debate in Galesburg and related his impressions of the two orators. It was a treat to hear her mimic Wright's description of Douglas' speaking style, a sort of bombast designed to reach the farthest edge of the crowd, estimated at 20,000. Wright said Lincoln spoke plainly as he always did and still had no trouble being heard by the entire crowd.
With the Underground Railroad a revered institution in American history and the fact that its web of safety for runaway slaves led through her hometown, Spellman has been researching this little-known history of her hometown for the last few years, sharing her findings with others. It is a fascinating part of central Illinois history.

If you can get your users to relink (but not recompile) their MPI applications, there are a number of tools that you can use to understand the communication needs of those applications. For example, FPMPI2 (www.mcs.anl.gov/fpmpi) collects summary information about each MPI communication routine and separates the information into messages of various sizes; this lets you see how much time you are spending on short (latency-sensitive) messages. There are more sophisticated tools that can allow you to estimate the performance of those applications under changes in the latency and bandwidth of the MPI implementation.

Museum of the Confederacy Dress
23 comments:
- Kristin said...
The dress is really gorgeous! :) I was like, what does she mean the fabric won't be seen? How is that possible?? Thanks for explaining. It's really cool that you got to be a part of this project!

P.S. I'm in Virginia, and Richmond is only a few hours away. Maybe I'll get to see the exhibit sometime. :)

- Nuranar said...
That is so neat! The museum people picked a good dress to copy, too. That trim especially will look really good when it's statue-fied. ;)

- Samantha B. said...
this is REALLY lovely! i adore the neckline and trim!
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 11:34:00 AM
- Lilac Bud Gal said...
Beautiful dress! I think I would have been disappointed to have had to give it away! And to know it wouldn't be 'seen'.. that's kind of interesting, though. I'm sure it will look really neat!
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 12:54:00 PM
- Gabrielle Renee said...
That is so neat, Atlanta! I've been to that museum!
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 1:50:00 PM
- Abigail said...
It's beautiful! Too bad the fabric will be covered. I think my next day dress will be like that one.
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 1:58:00 PM
- Hana - Marmota said...
Very interesting! It must have been a strange comission, but what an experience!
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 1:59:00 PM
- Julia Brown said...
I really love the style and trim of this dress! I love the fabric, too- it's kind of a shame that it will be covered up! :-o
You did a nice job, and I want to see how it will look finished!
-Julia - Wednesday, March 14, 2012 3:00:00 PM
- Lindsey said...
Beautiful dress! I'm not sure how I feel about it being covered in resin - it seems like it would be a more interesting display in color... You do lovely work! How exciting to do a dress for a museum display!
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 4:14:00 PM
- Elizabeth K. said...
Good job, Atlanta! That's really interesting about how they make the statues! The dress is really well done, and that trim is going to look really nice once it's statue-fied. Are they going to send you pictures of it afterward?
Congratulations on the super interesting commission! - Wednesday, March 14, 2012 6:34:00 PM
- Miss Janessa Pogue said...
That is a really neat project! I hope you get to see it sometime! You did an excellent job on the reproduction!
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012 8:59:00 PM
- Easnider said...
Love this dress and WOW! It really got weighed down! Congrats on getting such a neat commission!
- Thursday, March 15, 2012 3:25:00 PM
- Robin's Egg Bleu said...
What an awesome project! But I liked it much better on you! They don't seem to have put the dress over the proper underpinnings and so the dress is a little flat. It would have looked much nicer with better support underneath, but still, a feather in your cap to have done this for the museum!
- Thursday, March 15, 2012 8:59:00 PM
- Rebecca Jane said...
oh my goodness!! it looks AMAZING!! so excited for you! :D
- Friday, March 16, 2012 10:28:00 AM

Next time we're out at the end of the coast, I'll make sure to stop by to see this in person. You did a wonderful job.

What a opportunity to do something different and exciting!!

And I wonder how many people actually know there's real clothes under that!! :) And that the dress was made by the amazing Miss Atlanta! ;)
Nicely done! It turned our really neat!!!! - Monday, March 19, 2012 9:35:00 PM

Hi, I never commented on your blog before, but do lurk to read your posts, but I actually am going to school in Richmond and hope to get an internship at the Museum of the Confederacy for my senior capstone.
Your dress looks amazing, and the display also. I hope to see it up close and personal...and maybe take a look behind the scenes if I am really lucky. :) - Wednesday, March 21, 2012 2:37:00 AM
- Atlanta said...
Thank you everyone for your kind comments! :)
Rebecca May - welcome out of lurkdom! lol. That is so awesome about your possibile internship! What a great oppurtunity! I would really really love to hear about it! - Thursday, March 22, 2012 10:28:00 AM

I just stumbled upon your blog, live in Virginia and hope to see this display. How exciting to have been chosen for this project. The gown is lovely!

Can you guys recommend me a great laptop for that price. So far I am looking at this one right here. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220538 Somewhere along the lines of these specs.
check out the gateway ones, i think they're better overall with nice graphics too http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834101179
You won't love me for this comment, but IMO, in the $1500-$2000 range, the Apple MacBook Air running bootcamp is one of the "best". I really dont like OSX, but under VMware or Bootcamp, the Macbook air is a great machine, if you want portable and workable. Superb keyboard/trackpad too. If you want the biggest badass gamer/cruncher, then your suggestion is "best". So, depends what you want to do with it.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152073 I came across this one its not the best but it looks like it could do some damage and it will save you some money and thats always a plus especially if you dont think the hardrive is big enough you can buy an external
well going to throw this out there cos its cheap..ish Get a refurb inspiron 9400 (diff name in US just type it on ebay) E1705 make sure it has a dedicated gfx ... I.e radeon or geforce... then easy upgrade to a 7800gtx! put in 4gb ram then you got a 2ghz+ dual core 7800gtx 4gb ram Wuxga 1900x1200 17" will play tf2 etc.. superbly heres a link to upgrade it instructions http://eduncan911.com/archive/2007/12/11/why-the-inspiron-is-a-king.aspx maybe not what your looking for, but it's a great deal nonetheless
to be honest the one your looking at looks pretty good so if anything I'd go for that one also but you may want to look some more
The Asus, or the Gateway FX. BUT I've seen better results and more positive reviews with the Gateway FX series. Check those, Highly recommended.

A primary adrenal gland tumor is very uncommon, and exact statistics are not available for this type of tumor in the United States. It is estimated that approximately 300 adults in the United States are diagnosed each year with adrenal cortical cancer. This type of cancer is much less common than an adrenal adenoma, a benign tumor that is more common for middle-age and older adults. The average age of a person diagnosed with an adrenal gland tumor is between 45 and 50; however, these tumors can occur at any age. More women than men tend to be diagnosed with adrenal gland tumors.
Statistics should be interpreted with caution. These estimates are based on data from thousands of people with this type of tumor in the United States, but the actual risk for a particular individual may differ. It is not possible to tell a person how long he or she will live with an adrenal gland tumor.
Statistics adapted from the American Cancer Society.

The primary problem with the American economy is that too many sectors that are not productive are controlled by special interests. The major such interest controls the medical care industry where they demand 20% of the GDP. This is about twice what every other developed country pays for medical care. If the US could channel this excess cost to other sectors there would be close to $1 Trillion a year to spend on other important things. This money can be used to secure medicaid, medicare, Social Security, pay down part of the national debt and it will not be necessary to increase the taxes on the rich. The absurdity of the current economy is that the rich are that way because they have exert control over various overprices sectors and rather than working to make them more efficient call for tax cuts for the rich to give them even more. They are causing the problem and they have the chutzpa to blame the problem on the rust of us by saying they are being taxed too much. Another area of the economy that is unproductive and costing too much the university system. But this involves a separate analysis.
Classical economic theory says that during times of recession or depression it is time to cut out the deadwood and look for ways of doing things more efficiently. Yet, the special interest groups have enough influence to keep the inefficiencies going on and on. My bet is that until we deal with these economic distortions the recession will continue for many years. In the meantime the public will read articles about how the economy will be tweaked by fiscal policy and monetary policy both of which will lead us noplace
