|Head Coach
|Previous College:
|Eastern New Mexico
Ki Kroll has been hired as the new head coach of the Northern Arizona men's tennis team, announced Aug. 11 by Dr. Lisa Campos, Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics. Kroll brings an extensive coaching experience, including the collegiate, tennis club and youth ranks, with him to the Lumberjack men's tennis program following the last three seasons at the University of Southern Mississippi.
Kroll comes to NAU after an impressive three-year stint as the head men's tennis coach at Southern Mississippi, in which he inherited a program that had NCAA violations to its name and helped them achieve a brief national ranking in his second season. Most recently, Kroll's Golden Eagles finished the 2013 season with a 15-10 record, which included an upset of No. 51 South Alabama. He proved to be a competitive recruiter as his 2011 recruiting class ranked No. 16 among mid-majors and included the top player from the UK. Kroll also landed the No. 1 player from Portugal in 2012.
Prior to Southern Mississippi, Kroll served as both the head men's tennis coach and assistant athletic director for business at Vassar College where he led the Brewers to three consecutive NCAA Division III Tournaments from 2008-10. He was a three-time Liberty League Coach of the Year during his five seasons. Over his coaching career, Kroll has coached four All-Americans, the 2010 and 2011 ITA Northeast Singles champion, the 2008 ITA Northeast Doubles champions, 18 All-Academic selections and one Capital One Academic All-American.
Kroll also has experience as the Director of Tennis at the Spanish Oaks Tennis Club and Andre Agassi Boys & Girls Club in Las Vegas, Nev. Most notably, he is credited with developing the Boys & Girls Club inner city tennis program into one of the most successful programs of its type in the country. A number of his former students have been ranked in the top-five nationally in the junior ranks and have represented the United States in international play. Several even went on to play Division I tennis as well as professionally.
"I feel like I bring experience and the ability to motivate players and make them better by giving them a strong understanding of how to play their game," Kroll said. "I'm passionate about tennis and although there will be a lot of new faces on the team, I'm looking forward to meeting with them and taking them in a new direction."
Kroll played collegiately at Penn State and received his bachelor's degree in History from Eastern New Mexico.

Object »
Decapitation is the removal of the head of a person or animal.
Extreme violence pertains to excessive amounts of blood, gore, or violent acts. These include decapitation, mutilation, dismemberment, amputation, defenestration, disembowelment, torture and much more. Chainsaws usually produce the best excessive violence, while guns simply provide more blood spray.
Gibs (giblets) are, basically, what's left of someone after they make contact with an explosive object or powerful weapon. They can be seen in games such as Doom, Quake, Team Fortress 2 and many, many more.
A system that gives a game the technical capability to implement the effects of gore which include but are not limited to, dismemberment, charring, beheading and gibbing. Gore systems have progressed significantly over the years from enemies scattering into pixels to highly detailed body tearing.
HUD elements, such as health or ammunition, which appear physically on the player characters outfit, objects, equipment and weapons.
Necromorphs are the enemies in the Dead Space franchise. The Necromorph infection uses deceased bodies as hosts and forms hideously mutated shapes to adapt to more effective killing styles. Originally encountered on deep-space mining colony Aegis VII, it is believed that the infection originated from the Red Marker.
Strategic dismemberment allows players to separate an enemy's limbs from its body without killing it, disabling limb-specific functions.
Weapons can often be upgraded with new attachments, augmentations, or magical enchantments. These upgrades result in the original item being more powerful than originally intended.

Holiday shopping used to mean a trip to the local mall and a Saturday jaunt out to the outlet center in the next county. But this year, people in the US will be buying gifts from all over the world because they can do it easily and cheaply, from the comfort of their home.
The borderless consumer is just one of the game-changing retail trends discussed at a recent event sponsored by WomenCorporateDirectors.
Instant currency conversion tools, multi-language websites and no-borders web hosts like eBay and Etsy, have made it just as easy to buy a gift from Spain as it is from Kansas.
Not only are geographical boundaries disappearing, but so are the old-school "retail channels."

The Bruins offseason has gotten a ton of attention since it started a series or two earlier than many would have hoped. Naturally, when a team blows a 3-0 series lead, fans that saw promise want adjustments and answers. When that very team also has the second overall pick, it becomes a little clearer as to why the Bruins have remained relevant in late June.
Once the draft kicks off on Friday, so too will a flurry of moves across the league, which will be followed up six days later with the opening of free agency. As the Bruins and every other team patiently wait to hear whether the NHLPA will exercise a five percent inflator clause that would make the salary cap for next season somewhere between $58 million and $59 million, the cap room to pull off certain moves hangs in the balance. The Bruins would have $4,302,857 in space if the cap stayed as is at $56.8 million, according to CapGeek.com, and should they shed more salary they should be in good shape going forward.
So what moves are there for the GM Peter Chiarelli and the Bruins to make? They've already knocked a big one off the list in retaining Dennis Seidenberg, but there are plenty more dominos to fall. Here's what the Bruins should do as the offseason picks up dramatically.
[NOTE: As you'll probably notice, none of these are in any particular order, as some include both free agency and the draft]
1. Get Taylor Hall or Tyler Seguin, but don't let that be the end of the offensive improvements.
The Bruins, who finished dead last in goals this past season, need scorers. They'll get one with the second overall pick, whether it be Hall or Seguin (remember, Seguin scored 8 more goals than Hall this year and did so playing on a pretty weak team), but they shouldn't think their work is done if they get the wing, nor should they feel an issue went unaddressed if they get the center. Regardless of who comes to Boston to rescue the offense on Friday, he shouldn't be the only one this offseason.
The options in free agency aren't spectacular for major goal-scorers. Just because Hall or Seguin will be given an entry level deal, doesn't mean they'll be cheap (performance bonuses supplemented '09 top pick John Tavares' $900,000 maximum salary to bring his cap hit to $3.75 million), so the Bruins may potentially need to move some money around (Tim Thomas, Michael Ryder, Dennis Wideman – I don't but any of the Marc Savard talk) in order to go for a wing on the free agent market.
Who would they go after? A move for Ilya Kovalchuk seems fantastically impossible, considering they would probably have to bid adieu to Patrice Bergeron and multiple others in order to do so. Additionally, Peter Chiarelli wouldn't let Phil Kessel financially handcuff the organization, and though Kovalchuk is on a different planet than Kessel talent-wise, his addition would also make other improvements and the retaining of Johnny Boychuk, whom they would like to keep, nearly impossible. Below are three options for the Bruins in free agency that could improve the offense come July 1.
Good fits:
Alexander Frolov, LW, Kings
Depending on the cap, the Bruins might need to ditch a current contract in order to get Frolov, but he could have great potential playing with any of Boston's centers. The 28-year-old is hitting free agency after a down year (18 G, 32 A, 51 P), but he still might be tough to get into the fold due to SKA St. Petersburg (KHL), who can almost certainly offer him a better tax-free deal, reportedly having interest. The former first-round pick has had two seasons with at least 30 goals ('06-'07, '08-'09).
Lee Stempniak, RW, Coyotes
Stempniak is a very attractive option. His inconsistency throughout his career should prevent him from getting too big a deal on the open market but he put together a nice season in Phoenix last year, scoring a career-high 28 goals. The 27-year-old should be a top-six right wing wherever he ends up. Stempniak made $2.5 million last season.
Wild card:
Paul Kariya, LW, Blues
Unfortunately, Kariya does not come with a time machine that travels back to 1996. He hasn't had a 30-goal season since '05-'06 with Nashville and never broke the 20-goal mark in three seasons in St. Louis. Still, if he can stay healthy, Kariya might be a nice low-risk option for the Bruins. He won't make a third of what he made in St. Louis ($6 million annually) and as his career winds down he might as well settle for short money in a good situation. After all, he played his college hockey at Maine and still hasn't won a cup.
The Bruins could invest little in Kariya and hope he has a resurgence, though he likely won't be the player he was before his hip surgery. He'll be much cheaper than Frolov or Stempniak, but you get what you pay for. Bill Guerin could also be on this list, but he's likely to return to the Penguins if he elects to not retire.
2. Make some sort of big deal with the Panthers and get that third pick.
I'm not saying get Nathan Horton, and I'm not saying move Patrice Bergeron. Chiarelli said Monday that having four picks in the first two rounds both this year and next year put them in good shape to deal.
Here's what I'd like to see the Bruins do: Send picks No. 15, 32, and Minnesota's second-round pick in 2011 to the Panthers for the third overall pick and Scott Clemmensen [they could replace the two second-rounders with their first next year if the Panthers preferred]. Panthers director of amateur scouting Scott Luce recently told the South Florida sentinel that whomever goes in picks three through 11 could go in any order, so it's unlikely the Panthers are married to the idea of sticking at No. 3.
Yes, this would ultimately be a precursor to a potential Tim Thomas deal, but it would give the Bruins the ability to do so without sizable risk. Clemmensen has proven more than serviceable as a backup and has had success as a starting goalie for stretches at a time. More importantly, the former Boston College star will be earning $1.2 million, with Thomas making $5 million. Though the acquisition of Clemmensen would be very helpful to potential Thomas-less stable of goaltenders, he isn't the prize in this deal.
If the Bruins could move up to No. 3 with such a package (one would have to assume they could, as this draft, despite being deep, sees a pretty sizable dropoff from the top two picks to the third) they could add a premier two-way defenseman in the form of Windsor's Cam Fowler. A teammate of Hall's, Fowler was dominant playing for the loaded Spitfires team that won consecutive Memorial Cups.
"Cam Fowler is one of those prototypical offensive defenseman," Central Scouting's E.J. McGuire told the NHL Network. "He's your power play quarterback for years to come.
"He sees the ice, has the ability to control the tempo of the game from the blue line and is outstanding puck-handling and puck possession game sets him apart from almost every other defenseman that's eligible in this year's draft."
McGuire compares Fowler to Thomas Kaberle, Brian Leetch, Phil Housley, Eric Johnson, and Jack Johnson. It's hard to imagine Peter Chiarelli doesn't love this kid's game.
So in making such a move with the Panthers [the parameters I outlined are obviously just a stab at gauging what the Panthers would want back, but the Bruins have the chips to make virtually any trade they want], the Bruins would find themselves with one too many goaltenders. As a result, either before the draft or after it they should…
3. Find a taker for Tim Thomas.
File this one in the "Easier said than done" department, though the Canadiens' trade of Jaroslav Halak has reportedly prompted teams that missed out on the goalie to give the Bruins a call. The fact is that the Bruins can't go into the season with just Rask as the guy all by himself, but if they can get a legitimate goalie who could platoon if need be, they can afford to potentially move Thomas. A deal that sends Thomas away could just bring back another bad contract, but if the Bruins can get an overpaid, underachieving forward, he still might be able to contribute more than what at this point is a backup goalie.
At the end of the day, as risky as it is to not have a former Vezina winner on the bench as a safety valve, can you really blame the Bruins for not wanting to endure Thomas' $5 million cap hit each year? It would be hard to and Thomas obviously doesn't want to ride the pine. A trade would be best for all parties involved, even if the Bruins don't necessarily get equal talent in return.
4. Get deals for Johnny Boychuk and Mark Recchi done.
Assuming restricted free agents Mark Stuart, Daniel Paille, Vladimir Sobotka, and Blake Wheeler (the last of whom has been in a different trade rumor every day it seems) are back in the fold next year, the two most important unrestricted free agents for the Bruins to bring back are Recchi and Boychuk. All indications are that the Bruins have kept in contact with the players and hope to bring them back, but there are potential stumbling blocks with each.
If Boychuk is on the market when free agency opens, any team with a television for the playoffs could be intrigued enough to throw big money at the 26-year-old. Recchi shouldn't be a problem unless he retires, but at this point he might sit back and evaluate which team he feels has the best chance of winning a cup before he signs anything.
Four simple guidelines to live by, and as outlined before, the Bruins can make any other move with picks potentially happen because they have so many. For the Bruins, the feverish moves could very well begin before Friday. In any case, once it starts, you'll know it.

The Vibe for Fall 2012
Camel hair, patent leather, and garbage bags don't read as the fabric inspirations of a refined menswear collection but this is the house of Margiela, where the unconventional often becomes the sartorial. The collection is built off of elegant tailoring, with strong double-breasted overcoats and tonal-pinstripe suits sharing runway space with patent leather turtlenecks, utilized in layered looks and pants. The aforementioned garbage bags take shape in outerwear, mimicking the panels of a puffer jacket, and by contrast serve to showcase the classic menswear pieces beneath them. If this is the brand's idea of trash, we'll happily rummage through.

One of the many things that I love and appreciate about being an "active" Latter-day Saint is the community that such activity provides.
Today was Fast Sunday for us. Communicant Latter-day Saints typically fast from eating and drinking for twenty-four hours on the first Sunday of each month. We then give at least the amount of money that we saved thereby to the Church's fast offering fund, which is used by local bishops to aid the poor, those who've been laid off from work or are in temporary need, etc. Sometimes we also fast, either on that first Sunday or at another time, in order to seek particular blessings from the Lord. This month, my wife and I fasted for a friend who is fighting a serious cancer.
Fast Sunday is also a time for the "bearing" of testimonies, when individual members of a congregation stand before it during sacrament meeting, unscheduled and as they feel inclined, to express their faith, tell of blessings, reflect on recent lessons learned, and so forth.
Today, our sacrament meeting opened with a prayer, of course, and with the early Mormon hymn "Come, O thou King of Kings," by Parley Pratt (d. 1857):
- Come, O thou King of Kings!We've waited long for thee,With healing in thy wings,To set thy people free.Come, thou desire of nations, come;Let Israel now be gathered home.
- Come, make an end to sin,And cleanse the earth by fire,And righteousness bring in,That Saints may tune the lyreWith songs of joy, a happier strain,To welcome in thy peaceful reign.
- Hosannas now shall soundFrom all the ransomed throng,And glory echo roundA new triumphal song;The wide expanse of heaven fillWith anthems sweet from Zion's hill.
- Hail! Prince of life and peace!Thrice welcome to thy throne!While all the chosen raceTheir Lord and Savior own,The heathen nations bow the knee,And ev'ry tongue sounds praise to thee.
The first order of business was the blessing of three babies–a newborn girl and two boys–by their fathers. It's a wonderful thing for the community as a whole to mark the beginning of new lives–lives that we hope will be productive, happy, charitable, and faithful–in this way. But I couldn't help thinking of my friend Fred Liljegren, whose funeral "farewell" took place in the same building just last Thursday morning. (I was honored to be asked to speak during the services.) We join together as a supportive community to welcome new members when they arrive and to say goodbye as old friends depart:
Thou shalt live together in love, insomuch that thou shalt weep for the loss of them that die, and more especially for those that have not hope of a glorious resurrection. And it shall come to pass that those that die in me shall not taste of death, for it shall be sweet unto them. (Doctrine and Covenants 42:45-46)
In our service today, we then sang a hymn to prepare our minds for the sacrament of the Lord's supper:
- While of these emblems we partakeIn Jesus' name and for his sake,Let us remember and be sureOur hearts and hands are clean and pure.
- For us the blood of Christ was shed;For us on Calvary's cross he bled,And thus dispelled the awful gloomThat else were this creation's doom.
- The law was broken; Jesus diedThat justice might be satisfied,That man might not remain a slaveOf death, of hell, or of the grave,
- But rise triumphant from the tomb,And in eternal splendor bloom,Freed from the pow'r of death and pain,With Christ, the Lord, to rule and reign.
Following the sacrament, in which members of the Church covenant to "always remember" the sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf, we heard a testimony from a young man in the ward who leaves on Wednesday for two years of missionary service in German-speaking Europe. After he spoke, our bishop offered a few words about his own convictions, and then opened the meeting up to the congregation more generally. Because of the baby blessings and the missionary's testimony, the time for the rest of the congregation was somewhat abbreviated, but we still managed to hear from a number.
We closed with the old Protestant hymn "Sweet Hour of Prayer," which I admit has never been one of my favorites, and then adjourned for separate Sunday school classes.
It was my turn to teach the adult Sunday school class today, and the lesson was on Brigham Young's assumption of Church leadership after the murder of Joseph Smith, the reception of temple ordinances in the Nauvoo Temple before the Saints were obliged to abandon both it and the city they had built, and the beginnings of the trek westward. I focused on succession in the presidency of the Church, on the famous 8 August 1844 meeting during which many witnesses, as they later testified, saw Brigham Young in some sense "transfigured" (complete with Joseph's voice) into the likeness of his martyred predecessor — I think I'll write my column on that topic later this week — and on the centrality of the rites of the temple for Mormon belief.
Finally, during the women headed off to their separate meeting and the men to theirs. Our teacher today — the high priest group leader — chose to base his lesson on an April 2013 general conference talk by my friend Elder Craig Cardon, of the First Quorum of the Seventy, entitled "The Savior Wants to Forgive." He also showed a nice video (an Evangelical Protestant one, I think) of Christ's healing of the man born blind. (See John 9.) The most moving thing to me, in his lesson, was his account of someone known personally to a number of us who had sunk to the depths of drug addiction — including heroin addiction – but who (I had not heard this before) has managed to come back and will be married in the temple in November. My admiration for a person who has made such a journey is beyond bounds. It is meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this our brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. (Compare Luke 15:11-32.)
It's wonderful to me to live in a neighborhood so bound by covenant to God and by love and caring to one another. This isn't just a collection of houses in which we happen to live near to one another. I've lived in such places, and I know the difference. This is a community. And such communities exist, however far flung the houses may be, in ward and branches of the Church around the world.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Non-stop flights to Mazatlan vanishing
Flight schedules, destinations, and a dash of security concerns are what this week's readers had inquiries about.
QUESTION: Why in the world has WestJet cancelled the Direct Flights from Winnipeg to Mazatlan?
Likewise, why have other companies seemed to have dropped Mazatlan totally off their radar completely? I have never been on a Mazatlan flight where it wasn't full. Why would they drop a route that was still successful?
ANSWER: Like all tour operators, Westjet Vacations, and its parent Westjet Airlines, makes decisions on routes based on their popularity and the revenues the routes can generate.
There is no question that the negative publicity that related to gang violence and the fact a Canadian got caught in the crossfire really ramped up the emotions about the region across the country.
I too have spent time in Mazatlan and still consider it a safe and attractive sunspot destination. It offers a lot for tourists in accommodation, things to do, and of course the best shrimp the world has to offer.
But while flights were going out nearly full for most of last season, sources tell us the challenge was what the carrier had to do to fill their seats. Many of the flights were full only because of dramatic price discounting, which no tour operator will let continue for too long.
Can Mazatlan be brought back as a non-stop?
I believe it can but it will take a period of time that sees no other similar incidents in the region repeat themselves, along with economic conditions that make other routes less profitable than this one can be.
For the time being at least, we will have to be satisfied with travelling there through other gateways. I know a number of people who have condos or time-shares there and they are not at all happy with the lack of a direct flight to the destination they have already invested heavily into.
QUESTION: Why do airlines schedule such short times for connecting flights?
It creates stress for the passengers and the luggage handlers. Especially in winter when the wings need to be de-iced, a departure time can be delayed by at least 10 minutes or more.
When you only have less than an hour to get to your next flight, 10 minutes can be make-or-break for you, your luggage, and the time required to go through customs or security.
ANSWER: The time that the airlines allow for connecting flights is currently between 35 minutes and an hour. The actually official connection time depends upon the airports you will be connecting through.
For example for Winnipeg's James Armstrong Richardson International airport the connect time is 45 minutes, while Pearson Airport in Toronto is an hour. The connection time in Edmonton is a scant 35 minutes.
It's correct that if your connection is to a country like the United States where the security line-ups can be lengthy, if a flight is at all lengthy the stress can be significant. While airlines will often wait for connecting flights if there are quite a few people on a late arriving flight, this is most often not the case when it is just a couple or a small family.
Remember, you are not obliged to take the shortest connecting flight. For the most part routes are not created for specific connections at all. So long as there is sufficient frequency you will likely have other opportunity options to take later departures, on at least one of the routes.
Most people want to rush connections even more than the allowable limits, believing that somehow they can easily move from one gate to another quickly. Those who travel with carry-on bags only can be particularly insistent on cutting corners around the deadlines required.
QUESTION: My daughter is working overseas and is thinking about traveling to Beirut. Apparently it is quite an amazing city but as a mom my concern is safety.
Can you tell me what you think of a four day trip to Beirut in October?
ANSWER: While this capital of Lebanon may be a wonderful place during peaceful times, recent protests would suggest we are not in those times now.
I take much of my lead on these issues from our Canadian Government's website www.voyage.gc.ca
Here's what they were saying at the time of this writing:
OFFICIAL WARNING: Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada advises against non-essential travel to Lebanon.
Anti-Western demonstrations are occurring, and some have turned violent. Western interests are at risk of being attacked. Canadians should exercise extreme caution, monitor local news, avoid public gatherings and demonstrations, and stay away from areas where they may take place.
Planned and spontaneous demonstrations related to the domestic and regional situation regularly occur in Lebanon. The road to the airport is subject to sporadic closure due to various factors including local sectarian clashes, civil unrest in Syria and protests against government policies.
I would never ignore an official warning issued for a country. While things may settle down in a month, it would not be on my immediate must see list, and I certainly think anyone should think hard about a visitation over the coming weeks.

CDC Addresses Black AIDS Awareness Day
BY admin
February 07 2008 12:00 AM ET
The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention is urging
African-Americans to take part in a three-point pledge to
fight HIV/AIDS for Black AIDS Awareness Day on
February 7.
In a statement
released Wednesday, Dr. Kevin Fenton -- the CDC's director
of the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD,
and TB Prevention -- is urging the black population
"to ACT" -- through increased Awareness,
Communication, and Testing -- against HIV.
"There is a great
deal of work to be done," Fenton wrote in the
statement. "But we are also encouraged by hopeful signs in
recent years, from dramatic reductions in the number
of babies born with HIV to evidence of reductions in
new HIV infections among African-American women."
account for roughly half of the more than 1 million
people living with HIV in the United States -- while
only representing 13% of the general population.
According to the
CDC, African-American men have the highest rate of HIV
infection in the country. In 2005, the rate of HIV diagnosis
among black men was nearly seven times higher than
that of white men. Black gay and bisexual men
represented more than half of all diagnoses.
African-American women's rate of infection was more than 20
times that of white women that year. (The

For new questions please post at magento.stackexchange.com, the community-run support site for the Magento community. We will be providing updates on the new forum solution soon. For questions or concerns please email firstname.lastname@example.com.
I was wondering if this is possible, or is there some kind of way to workaround to achieve this.
I want some pre-configured wish lists available to people, like a pre-populated shopping list? For example a site I have will be a grocery store and for special events like Christmas etc I will have pre-saved "wish lists" or for certain recipies and I want people to be able to view these and add all of the items to their cart at once?
I noticed that you can make a wishlist and send it to email addresses with an rss feed so this doesn't seem far off, so maybe someone else has figured out a workaround or something?
Any help or advice on this would be fantastic.
Thanks in advance!

Will Iron Man 3 Will Be Filmed in China and Cast Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin?
It's hard to fathom that in the mid-90s Marvel was declaring bankruptcy, but look at the comic company now: an entertainment jaggernaut that cranks out box office smashes. And there's no reason why they should stop at domestic success, as the newest sequel to the Iron Man franchise will be co-produced to a Chinese production company as a way to co-finance and distribute the film. According to an article from the LA Times,
Foreign films co-produced in China have an easier time getting cleared by Chinese censors and do not fall under the country's annual import cap," and what to you know, the film will be shot in both the US and Mainland China – a country of a billion people that suddenly have the budget to watch Iron Man 3.
Interesting from a financial point, of course, but also interesting from a storyline point: the rumored superhero villain for Iron Man 3 is The Mandarin, a half-Chinese guy with long flowy robes and a fumanchu beard. But not to worry if you're concerned about Asian American actors only getting stereotyped roles: Ben Kingsley is in final talks to play the role as the half-Asian villain with the magic rings – a British actor best known for playing… wait for it… Ghandi. See, kids? Damned if we want foreigners playing Asian roles, damned if we don't!

Well in the first Iron Man move the terrorist group "10 Rings" is an allusion to the 10 magic/technological/alien-artifacts rings that the Mandarin wore in the comic book (each granted him a different energy attack or super power), so it would not be out of the realm of possibility of the Mandarin or a character inspired by him being Middle Eastern in #3. Though if they do that I hope they bring back
Faran Tahir to be the big bad with Kingsley in a different role.

This is discussion archived from a time before the current discussion method was installed.
Nothing to say, really, except that Andyroid may be a God.
Andyroid: I'm flattered, really. But I was thinking about this trope the other day and realized just how prevalent it is. I mean, how many times have you NOT seen a winter scene where there wasn't snow falling or on the ground? Enough to count on both hands, I'd bet, or maybe even one hand.
: I don't think the
Hey Arnold
example applies here; I've seen it, and Christmas was never mentioned in the episode.
Nasrudith: It's not that unrealistic if done in the right setting. (Although most are not.) I've seen just that situation the southern ends of New England where unless its at the very beginning or end of the season everything WILL be covered in in snow.
: I'm here somewhat north of Seattle, Washington, and it has occurred to me that December 24th is a stupid date for Christmas if you want it to be a white christmas. Because it rarely snows around Christmas, but it almost always snows sometime mid-January to mid-February. Of course, this year we had it snow in mid-to-late April, which was an unusual blessing (the more because my little niece was cute enough to burst into tears, sobbing out that her brother had broken the moon and it was falling down from the sky).

Point is, Hollywood doesn't seem to get the ridiculous -er-
of weather we can get.
It also depends on where it is in Ohio. In Cleveland, it generally snows before Halloween and the ground is under a blanket before December first.
So, is this an example, or not, or...?
TTD: Eh, I think it is, as the trope seems to be more about how Most Writers Are From California And Don't Really Understand Snow. I'll put the first part back in.

Back in the day my gran, the lovely lady above, was and still is now a beautiful woman, who always takes so much pride in her appearance. When I was younger I always remember her being so well put together, her hair was always made up and she always had the prettiest jewellery on.
Let's get Tropsi – Dear RaeOctober 14, 2014
Ok so I got super spoilt by the team over at Dear Rae. WOW. I received a beautifully packaged ring yesterday with loads of photos of their new Let's Go Tropsi Collection, which is really pretty and delicate and made up of glints of gold, native shapes and lavish colours that come through in the use of precious stones. I'm a huge fan of Dear Rae's creations, in fact every time I wear any Dear Rae piece that I own, someone asks me where it comes from. I find everything that they make so simple and unfussy, but really eye catching and beautiful at the same time and I'm super happy with my awesome 'delicious monster' ring that they sent me, which I definitely think needs some friends, because they look so good stacked.
Black Betty's shop openingOctober 6, 2014
My friend Kristin is opening up her very own Black Betty jewellery store in the Bryanston Shopping Centre, Cnr William Nicol/ Ballyclaire Drive. Her stuff is so so pretty and delicate and pretty and I just want everything. I'm not sure it's a good thing that she now has a shop I can visit anytime. I have blogged about her stuff before, just click here to have a bit of a online drool.
n+a new yorkJuly 16, 2014
This simple, but oh so beautiful jewellery is made by sisters Noriko and Akiko Sugawara under their label n+a new york. They're so delicate but imperfect at the same time, I really like them.
Pretty rings…February 21, 2014
How pretty is the diamond cluster ring below? I found it on Free People, then I went looking for more and more I found. But let me warn you now, 80% of them are quite pricey, some are a few hundred and some a few thousand. Man I need to get myself some fat pockets.
Kaye Blegvad – new shiniesJanuary 27, 2014
This is Kaye Blegvad new jewellery collection, I have blogged about this talented young lass before because I really like her illustrative style and so when I saw that she had some new pieces up on her site I thought I would share them with you guys because they're just so damn pretty.

Author/Artist Review
Located in: Valencia
Submitted: January 11, 2006
Tell us a little about yourself. I work in the music industry as a musician and author. I have written books as well as band arrangements for young concert band for elementary through middle school level players. I even have a concert band arrangement of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" called "Batter Up!" and that is in the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown NY in the printed music and recoreded music division! I have given workshops for Alfred Publishing Company at Homeschool conventions in Southern CA, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida for over 8 years and by God's Grace I am also a Homeschooling parent and am working on establishing an instrumental program in our area of Valencia CA. I give private lessons as well.
What was your motivation behind this project? For many years doing music workshops at Homeschool conventions especially, many parents were asking for easy guitar hymn books for their budding players but nothing was really available at the beginning level that was musical. I came up with this at the many requests for easier guitar hymns that a first year student could easily play.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? A fun and easy way to play their favorite hymns as they progress as a guitarist.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? I am a classical musician by trade. I have performed with many chamber groups and orchestras throughout Southern California and Eastern Pennsylvania.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: My heart is for those who wish to develop a love for music so my hope is that this guitar book will be an encouragement to all who play out of it. I hope to write many more books geared for beginners so they can enjoy every step of the blessing of learning music!

Best way to to visit the French Quarter and Bourbon Street?
Me and my friends are going to plan a weekend road trip to New Orleans.None of us have ever been to New Orleans. We like to drink and have a good time. We also want to visit Bourbon St. What is the best way to do this? Hotel suggestions? Any transportation to Bourbon St? Taxi prices? Must do or see things?. We are trying to do this as cheep as possible, but any help is appreciated.
I can't add much to who dat's answer except I like the Hotel St. Marie. It's inexpensive (about $60 a night), clean, and it has a pool. It's like so close to Bourbon St. it's crazy. I don't know if they have parking, I never drive there. Their sister hotel is the St. Pierre up the street. Also inexpensive but no pool.
