Philip Anselmo + Ben Weinman Become Founders of the Cat Pants Gang
The first rule of cat pants gang is: wear your damn cat pants. The second rule of cat pants gang is: look fabulous in your badass cat pants.

Vinnie Paul says it's time for Pantera's living members to move on, adding that he doesn't want to perform with a "hack version" of the band.
In response to criticism on the quality of Anselmo's vocal performance, the man himself took to the comments section of YouTube to explain himself.
Vinnie Paul, squashing Pantera reunion talk, likens dealing with the situation to what it's like dealing with an ex-wife after a bitter split.
The singer would like to reunite Pantera, with Zakk Wylde filling in for the late Dimebag Darrell.
Legendary Pantera / Damageplan / Hellyeah drummer Vinnie Paul has carved out a remarkable career since forming Pantera in 1981. Paul will add yet another album to his resume when Hellyeah release 'Blood for Blood' on June 10, but as evidenced in a new interview, the drummer is only feeling pressure from two sources: himself and his late brother 'Dimebag' Darrell Abbott.
The 2014 Revolver Golden Gods Tour is going strong throughout the U.S., but the people of Worchester, Mass. were given a special treat at the conclusion of Black Label Society's set. To cap off the night, Down frontman Philip Anselmo took the stage with BLS to jam a ferocious performance of Pantera's 'I'm Broken.'
Let's face it. When it comes to hard rock and metal, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has dragged their feet over the years with inducting some of the big names of the genre, so with that in mind, Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul says he's not confident that the groundbreaking metal band will have their named called.
Most metalheads love Pantera, and there's a pretty good possibility that the band's music has likely motivated many fans to pick up an instrument and try to replicate some of the legendary group's songs. With that in mind, Pantera are now encouraging their fans to take part in a Pantera covers competition.
After a successful inaugural run in 2013, Philip Anselmo is bringing back his Housecore Horror Film & Metal Festival in 2014. The event will once again take place in Austin, Texas, running Oct. 23-26.
Pantera fans often speculate about what heights the band may have reached without the fallout from frontman Philip Anselmo's drug abuse followed by the untimely and tragic death of guitarist Dimebag Darrell. Now, drummer Vinnie Paul is weighing in on the topic.

Think Again: Poor Coverage on Poverty
SOURCE: AP/Jeff Christensen
Earlier this week, "CBS Evening News" anchor Katie Couric told viewers that the state of California was planning to cut the jobs and wages of state workers. Of the more than 200,000 workers who were to be fired or see their wages reduced, a grand total of zero appeared or were quoted on Couric's program. No discussion with those workers who are soon to be fired about their probable descent into poverty. No chat with those facing lower wages about what it will be like to struggle among the working poor. Nada.
CBS's decision was of a piece with most media reporting of issues that affect poor people—to the degree that such issues are reported at all. The most recent estimates by the U.S. Census Bureau show that one in eight Americans live below the poverty line. A study by the University at Michigan's National Poverty Center reveals that one in three Americans will experience government-defined poverty within a 13-year period. And yet the only people less visible in our media today than the poor at home are our soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan.
A Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting study published last fall found that "with rare exceptions, such as the aftermath of Katrina, poverty and the poor seldom even appear on the evening news—and when they do, they are relegated mostly to merely speaking in platitudes about their hardships." The FAIR study, concluded just as the economic downturn was worsening, that "[d]uring the more than three years studied, there were just 58 stories about poverty on the three network newscasts, including just 191 quoted sources." For comparison, the researchers noted that while there were only 58 stories on the entire issue of poverty, there were 69 stories about Michael Jackson's legal troubles.
And the stories that did appear were often quite superficial, as an examination of the 191 sources they contained demonstrated. In 2001, the three networks included a total of 14,632 sources. Observes FAIR: "Assuming that the nightly news still features a like number of sources per year, that would amount to some 46,000 sources over the 38 months of FAIR's study, making sources appearing in poverty stories just 0.4 percent of overall sources."
As the economy tumbles toward recession, the number of stories about poverty appear to be are on the upswing, but many of the same old problems continue to manifest themselves. The sound bites used to illustrate the lives of the poor are often interchangeable and stereotypical—and most importantly, what they're allowed to speak about is severely limited. FAIR, in its study, observed that "in story after story, poor people were included to tell generic stories of suffering, before turning to 'experts' who discussed what policies should be pursued to address the situation."
In addition, oftentimes the actual causes of poverty are ignored, as if job loss or lack of economic opportunity were an Act of God. People are shown suffering, sure, but the reasons why do not elicit any interest, much less reporting. FAIR's study found that:
"CBS… is the prime culprit, having run segments on predatory lending (9/5/03), the difficulties of finding child care (11/25/03) and increasing economic polarization (12/8/05) that studiously avoided asking how government policies had helped to cause or failed to alleviate these problems. The last one blamed the 'changing economy' for increased economic polarization, with no indication of what changes were made or who made them…. In late 2005, both CBS (11/24/05) and NBC (12/26/05) ran stories on food banks running short of donations, without explaining or asking why." (CBS, interestingly, had run a nearly identical story on falling food donations two years earlier—11/27/03—something it never noted in its 2005 story.)
Now take a look at the some of the sound bites of the poor in America, as seen on network television news in recent days and weeks that post-date the FAIR study:
- On the August 1 broadcast of "NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams," the anchor broadcast a story about employers cutting their workers' hours from full-time to part-time. It began with the testimony of one Laura Colona, who informed viewers that "I clean 28 bathrooms a night, I clean the principal's office, the lobby and a lot of other things in six hours." The story immediately, then, turned away from Ms. Colona, never to return except for a closing bite: "There is no extras. It's a struggle. It really is."
- On the June 18 edition of ABC's "Good Morning America," viewers met Mike Boseman, who told viewers "I went through a lot of gas in four days. Every four days we went through about a whole tank." The story discussed "the economy hitting home in suburbia," as if that were all there was to it.
- On the June 2 broadcast of the "CBS Evening News with Katie Couric, viewers were offered a discussion of the increasing need for food banks due to spiraling costs coupled with smaller pocketbooks. The report featured a Ms. Stephanie Smith, explaining, "Gas prices. Milk is just as much as gas these days. It's really hard. I'm sorry," and other food bank customers, who explained "I think the best thing people can do is stand back and pray. Pray for better times." Why were food prices rising? No one at CBS seems to know. (The same package ran the next morning on the network's "Early Show." No answers had been found overnight, apparently.)
- CBS News also ran a story probing the home foreclosure crisis and its effect on people's pets. A Ms. Carol Ann Sparveri told the audience about her neighbor who moved away after the losing the family home, and left the family dog behind. Sure it was sad, but it might have benefited from a discussion of how and why so many houses were being foreclosed upon.
We could go on (and on), about these journalistic sins of omission. We would be remiss, however, were we to fail to mention far more greater sins of commission in what Eric Alterman has named the Really Conservative Media. For instance, in October 2006, Bill O'Reilly announced that "here at home, people have a very high standard of living" because "[e]ven the poor have color television sets and pretty much everything they need." He insisted that those who "fail in this country" are "stupid," "addicted," or have "mental problems."
Similarly, Rush Limbaugh announced, naturally sans evidence, that the poor people whose food stamps were being cut "aren't using them anyway." And the right-wing radio host Neal Boortz complained that the poorest Americans are "a drag on society" and that in the event of a disaster, the United States should "save the rich people first."
On right-wing talk radio the hosts make their atavistic ideological assumptions explicit. In the mainstream media, the argument is not engaged at all. Unfortunately, in both cases, Americans are left just as ignorant about the complex and interlocking societal problems that cause our unusually high poverty rate as they were if nobody mentioned it at all.
Eric Alterman is a Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress and a Distinguished Professor of English at Brooklyn College, and a professor of journalism at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism. His blog, "Altercation," appears at http://www.mediamatters.org/altercation. His seventh book, Why We're Liberals: A Political Handbook for Post-Bush America (was recently published by Viking.

Cafe Mozart
Why?Because what's largely gone is not forgotten.
This place literally has not changed since the Nixon administration. There are no windows, and they play -- wait for it -- Mozart throughout the restaurant. So why should you go? Because they stock fantastic German beers, serve them by the liter, and do it all for prices that seem to have not changed since the '70s. It is the restaurant that time forgot, complete with Austrians catering to your every need. A. List tip: Don't forget to pick up a Weisswurst or two; you have to trust us that these beers do best in their natural environment.

I love all music and have always been slightly obsessed but now after surgery I am obsessed. This doesn't bother me at all, just my daughter, lol. I love classic rock, alternative (the 90s),Dave…Continue
Music has gotten me through some really tough times I have people around me that really bother me so I figured out that when I am around them just to wear my i-pod and tune them out and therefore I won't have any problems. I am big into Country music and music from the 70's and 80's so have many songs I like but John denver is a favorite and his song "The gift you are".
Best soundtrack albums?? What are some of your favorites either to play or rock out to??
Movies like Frozen are becoming known for their songs
From a Broadway show-Wicked is a personal favorite???
Other movie songs, TV themes???
Hello Guy Stoker I used to play the piano. I lost the ability and now play the guitar.
I will definitely have to look into that album. Thank you for sharing that with us!!
Hey Jaime!
Just listened to that song. It is a good song.
I think you would also like Your Hands by JJ Heller. Check it Out and tell me what you think.
Hey guys! Welcome to the group!

Barry Zito was left off of the postseason roster in 2010 and he probably wouldn't have started Game 5 of the NL Championship Series had Madison Bumgarner not had a rough outing in Game 2. But today, Zito will get the chance to do what every young pitcher dreams about: Start Game 1 of the World Series.
When Zito tosses his first pitch against the Detroit Tigers at AT&T Park, he'll add another chapter to an incredible redemption story that has seen him go from $126 million goat to team savior.
"It means a lot," Zito said. "It's hard to reflect and really become third-person about this experience. It's more about right now."
The 2002 AL Cy Young Award winner was expected to be the Giants' ace when he inked a seven-year, $126 million contract with the club in December 2006. But his record in a Giants uniform is a subpar 58-69 and he has yet to finish the year with an ERA below 4.00 in six seasons in The City.
Things started to turn around in April, though, when he pitched a shutout against the Colorado Rockies in his first start of the season. The Giants are now winners in his last 13 starts and his 7²/³ innings of shutout baseball in Game 5 against the St. Louis Cardinals kick-started the team's historic comeback in the NLCS.
"For him to be at this point and starting the first game, I was really glad, proud to tell him that," manager Bruce Bochy said.

Starred Review, School Library Journal, September, 2008"This stunning picture-book biography combines a lyrical text with wonderfully creative mixed-media illustrations in an impressive and personable homage to an extraordinary and accomplished man."Starred review, Kirkus Reviews, July 2008"With plain words, appropriate to the style of this master of clear and precisely worded poetry, and brilliant images, Bryant and Sweet introduce Williams and his poetry in a fresh, accessible way. It is entirely possible that this offering will not only acquaint readers with the man and his poetry but will also inspire creativity — Williams would no doubt be pleased."Shelf Awareness, October 2008."the passion of both author and artist for their subject shine through on every page—in the pacing, in the layering of the compositions and, fittingly, in the carefully chosen details."Curriculum Connections, School Library Journal"This gorgeous collage of words and images reveals bits and snatches of Williams's life — an ordinary childhood, a love of science and nature, a busy medical career, and a quiet obsession with poetry. The writer's words are incorporated into the colorful multimedia artwork, creating a lively, lyrical picture-book biography."

The Bishop
The Rt. Rev. Marc Handley Andrus is the eighth bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of California. He was installed as bishop in 2006 — a position of oversight for a diocese comprised of 27,000 communicants in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo Counties, and the cities of Los Altos and part of Palo Alto. Prior to his election as Bishop of California, Andrus served as Bishop Suffragan in the Episcopal Diocese of Alabama.
The Rev. Justin R. Cannon received his Bachelor of Arts from Earlham College, Richmond, Indiana, and his Master of Divinity from Church Divinity School of the Pacific in Berkeley. He was ordained as a deacon by the Right Reverend Marc Handley Andrus, Bishop of California, on June 4, 2011 and served as deacon at St. Clement's Episcopal Church, Berkeley. On December 3, 2011, he was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Andrus on December 3, 2011 and accepted a call to serve as Priest-in-Charge at Saint Giles in June 2012.
Fr. Justin is the founder of Holy Hikes, an eco-ministry serving the Diocese of California that gathers monthly to celebrate the Holy Eucharist outdoors in the context of a nature hike, as well as the founder of Inclusive Orthodoxy. He is a published author, the editor of two books ― Sanctified: An Anthology of Poetry by LGBT Christians, and Homosexuality in the Orthodox Church ― and was interviewed in the 2012 film The Right to Love: An American Family.
Before being called to Saint Giles, Fr. Justin worked as Program Manager of Episcopal Charities. His efforts focused on the launch of Episcopal Charities' Action Networks, which work to address the root causes of poverty. He is an Associate of the Society of Saint Francis and currently lives in Orinda, California, with his two pet rabbits.

Preventing Prostate Cancer
In this article
To date, no evidence proves that you can prevent prostate cancer. However, you may be able to lower your risk.
A diet that helps maintain a healthy weight may reduce your risk for prostate cancer. The American Cancer Society recommends:
Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials
Major pharmaceutical companies continually research and develop new medications and treatments, which must be shown to be safe and effective before the FDA ( Food and Drug Administration) approves them and doctors can prescribe them to patients. Through prostate cancerclinical trials, researchers test the effects of new medications on a group of volunteers with prostate cancer. Following a strict protocol and using carefully controlled conditions, researchers evaluate the investigational drugs under...
Read the Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials article > >
- Limiting high-fat foods
- Cutting back on red meats, especially processed meats such as hot dogs, bologna, and certain lunch meats
- Eating five or more servings of fruits and vegetables each day
Healthy food choices also include bread, cereals, rice, pasta, and beans.
Antioxidants in foods, especially in fruits and vegetables, help prevent damage to the DNA in the body's cells. Such damage has been linked to cancer. Lycopene, in particular, is an antioxidant that has been thought to lower the risk of prostate cancer. It can be found in foods such as:
- Tomatoes -- both raw and cooked
- Spinach
- Artichoke hearts
- Beans
- Berries -- especially blueberries
- Pink grapefruit and oranges
- Watermelon
However, it's not clear whether lycopene actually helps prevent prostate cancer, and recent studies have not been able to show that it does. Read more about antioxidant-rich fruits, vegetables, and beans.
Researchers continue studying other ways to lower prostate cancer risk. It's still too soon, though, to know whether studies are finding new ways to prevent prostate cancer. Here are some examples of what's being considered:
- Some doctors are looking at whether certain drugs, such as Avodart (dutasteride) and Proscar (finasteride), which are both used to treat an enlarged prostate that isn't cancerous, can help prevent prostate cancer.
- Early studies showed that vitamins, such as selenium and vitamin E, may lower your chance of getting prostate cancer. Further research, though, has not shown this.
- Doctors continue to study the effects of supplements on prostate cancer. For now, no vitamins or supplements are known to lower risk.
Testing for Prostate Cancer
While testing, or screening for prostate cancer, can find it early, experts disagree on whether it actually helps save lives.
The American Cancer Society recommends that men talk to their doctor before having a test to check for prostate cancer. Men need to understand the risks and benefits of testing. Then, the man and his doctor can decide whether to proceed with testing using a PSA test and digital rectal exam.

MoccasinCreek18 is an ongoing project to craft different PDGA rated 18-hole courses from the normal 25-hole course at Moccasin Creek DGC. The purpose is to provide fun and challenging layouts suited to player's individual skill levels. (What most courses do by offering multiple tee pads and pin placements.) This is something we can do for very little cost and without making modifications to the existing course. All of these layouts are in the refining stage and need to be tested and modif ... more

A New Hydropower Threat to Fisheries?
The Angling Trust has raised concerns that the Community Energy Strategy may impact unfavourably upon hydropower planning applications.
Source: Angling Trust
The Angling Trust has raised concerns that the Community Energy Strategy announced by Energy Minister Ed Davey, coupled with the already generous Feed in Tariffs offered by government, will lead to a fresh wave of applications for planning permission for hydropower turbines from community groups. Any resulting hydropower schemes, they claim, would have the potential do great damage to fisheries for decades to come.
In response to the Strategy the Trust has published a free guidance document to community groups and developers to provide practical advice about how to reduce the impact of hydropower on fish and other wildlife.
The Angling Trust has reviewed hundreds of applications for hydropower schemes in recent years and its experts have concluded that the majority of them would have a detrimental impact on the ecology of rivers. It has successfully objected to numerous schemes and Fish Legal, which acts as the Angling Trust's legal arm in England, managed to get a legal injunction to stop a major hydropower project going ahead last year on the River Trent.
The Trust has also battled successfully over the past four years with the Salmon & Trout Association to get new guidelines introduced by the Environment Agency which should reduce the scale and number of schemes coming forward.
According to Government figures, the maximum amount of electricity that could be generated by all of the 26,000 sites which have potential for run of river hydropower would be less than 0.5% of national electricity demand, and in practice it would be much less than that because many schemes would be unfeasible. The Angling Trust has repeatedly questioned whether it makes sense to support hydropower with public subsidy when it can do great damage to fisheries and yet generates so little power on a national scale.
Many community groups have spent considerable time and money developing plans for schemes which have turned out to be unfeasible. For example, North Devon Council wasted almost £150,000 on the development of plans for a community scheme on the River Lyn in North Devon to install a new concrete weir to generate hydropower. With one of the last healthy salmon populations in England, this beautiful river is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and the scheme was axed.
Other community groups who have managed to get permission to develop have been disappointed when the financial returns promised by consultants has failed to materialise.
Mark Lloyd, chief executive of the Angling Trust said:
"We are very concerned that these grants will lead to another wave of damaging and pointless hydropower developments that will damage our fisheries for generations. Our advice document is aimed at communities who are motivated to do their bit to save the planet from climate change, but who might not be aware that their schemes might actually do more harm to the environment than good.
The Angling Trust wants to avoid communities' good intentions leading to unintended consequences and urges them to look at other ways of generating power than hydropower."

A definite clash of ministerial interests going on here; what with the Energy Minister Ed Davey wanting to install flow restricting hydropower schemes and the Environment Secretary Owen Paterson wanting to avoid flooding.Over here all the rivers have some sort of weir every few kilometers where old water mills used to be situated and there are large dams every thirty or forty kilometers. My local rivers never flood and don't suffer drought like the ones back home used to. The Vienne is the same length of the Severn and in my area is about 100 metres across yet the high and low levels are only around one meter apart. Quite a few of the old mill races have been converted to provide hydro power.

I dropped my samsung epic 4G a few days ago, and ever since then the power button won't work. I can't light up, or black out my screen. I have to wait for it to time out to black out. & i have to slide open the keyboard to light it up. My battery died tonight, & i plugged it in. It is charging like normal, but I can't turn it on without using the power button. Is there any other way to power it on?
I must thank you! Works great with LG Optimus Black. After hours of searching and trying, this is the only way to turn my phone on.

It probably goes without saying that what we all really want this Christmas is for the horrible tragedy of last week to not have happened. Our hearts are so broken and hurting as we think of these families. While they remain heavily in thought and prayer, here' s hoping this last installment of the"Dear Santa" note series can provide a small dose of levity and cheer amidst all the sorrow. These ladies always make me laugh so much, and hoping their requests can do the same for you today.
Thanks so much to all of you for playing along! I've had such a fun time with these notes, and I'm so glad you've been tuning in. I'll turn it over to these moms and then The Bloggess herself send us out with her oh-so-perfect wish. How does she always just get it so right?
I imagine at this point Santa is getting a bit nervous, being that he only has 5 days until Christmas to make this stuff happen. But hey, he's in charge of the Christmas magic, so I'll let him figure that all out. For one last time, Santa, listen up!
C'mon, Santa, Kim's not asking for a full-time personal barista or anything, just a few hours/day:
Dear Santa,
Thanks a million –
Dear Santa,
I've decided this year I am not going to ask for expensive clothes or handbags. Truth be told, they will just end up in my closet with the tags still on. This year I am going to be practical and ask for things that I just wish would happen. Since you're oh so magical I know you can make it happen.
1) Just once a week I would like you to send a magic elf to hypnotize my son so I can take a normal shower. You know one where I am not hopping out of the shower every 30 seconds to check on him.
2) I would LOVE to wake up on Christmas morning and for my house to be sparkly clean. I'm not just talking dishes done but super clean. For example the grout in my shower could use a good scrubbing. Those blinds with a half inch of dust could use a magic elf to clean them up. My list goes on and on.
3) I have a scrapbook of Little Bear's first year and am only up to his 7th month. He is now three years old. Waking up on Christmas morning to a completed scrapbook would not only take away some mommy guilt but also make me more organized. It's a win/win.
4) Do you have an elf that can just magically get Little Bear potty trained? It's been a year of potty training and we are still wearing pull ups. I can use some magic in this department.
5) Hell, if you want to just leave the magic elf at my house all year I'm sure I can find a few things to keep him busy.
I still believe in you Santa!
Sara of Confessions of a Redheaded Mama
A Jetson car? Kristy is brilliant. I'll take one of these too, Santa!
As Steph says, Santa, her list is completely reasonable. Get on it!:
Dear Santa,
- A firmer belly
- A clean house
- Someone to do homework with my kids so I don't have to
- A tad bit more common sense
- More help, cooperation and appreciation from my children and husband
Steph of I'm Still Learning
Call in the grandmas for Jelli:
Dear Santa,
It'd be grand if one of the grandmas could fly south in December to spoil my little girl while the hubs & I live it up at a couples beach retreat.
Love, Jelli of Jellibean Journals
Just a robot, some chocolate a little bit of playing with time for Jen, who wisely thanks you for remembering what's really important about Christmas:
Dear Santa,
As a Mom of 2 boys (ages 6 and 9) I'd like a robot that can pick up all the toys left behind. That shouldn't be too hard. Just combine the technology of the Roomba and make it able to pick up larger items, and spit them out where they belong. The old "Clean up, clean up" song no longer works for the boys and the tiny legos really hurt when you step on them. So yes, a Clean Up Robot would be perfect. I'd also like a big box of chocolates. You just can't go wrong with chocolate. One last request, maybe you could make these years last just a little longer. Time is flying by too fast and my oldest is a preteen. I want time to slow down so we can snuggle a little longer, tickle till we cry, and play chase till we're tired. Those are the precious times I don't want to lose with age.
By the way, thanks for always taking second place to Jesus. I wanted my boys to believe in you, but never wanted Jesus to be in your shadow. So thanks for bowing out when necessary but always providing that extra "magic" that makes Christmas morning so fun.
Jen of Second Chances and Lessons from the Garden
Wrinkled Mommy only wants 3 days. Just 3 days! Surely you can manage that?:
72 hours completely alone. As in NO ONE at home with me at all. The first day I would clean house and do all laundry. The second day I would stay out all day shopping. The third day I would lay around on the couch ALL DAY watching anything I wanted on TV.
Give this sweet mom, Melissa, a little rest and a little break:
Dr. Santa,
This year for Christmas I have been a very good girl. What I would really like would be to wake up one morning and just not feel tired anymore. What I also would like is to get to eat a meal in peace and decide when and for how long I sit at the table. If either of those aren't feasible, I will settle for getting to go the the bathroom alone. Thanks. Cookies and milk will be waiting for you.
Melissa of Adventures with Captain Destructo
And our final note of the season comes from the very sage Bloggess, who asks for the one thing we would all ALWAYS want. She's like, super-famous, Santa, so you've gotta make this one come true:
If not, all I want for Christmas is for carrots to taste like cheesecake.
Remember to tune in Monday, when Santa has agreed to share the note he is writing to my kids this year. No, I don't think he had it in him to respond to all of these amazing requests, but hey, it's really all about the kids, right?

Thanks so much for letting me join in on the Santa fun. I enjoyed this series and am super impressed by other moms wishes. A jetson car might be the greatest idea ever!!
Sara, thank YOU for sharing your note! One Jetson car coming up!
Another awesome installment and think I may need to add a few of these to my original list, but oh hell that would be a bit greedy. So ok let it be about the kids, but hey isn't it always, lol!! Seriously, thanks for including me from the beginning and looking forward to Monday's installment now!!
Janine, go for it with adding to your list! We can all dream big, right?
Love them all. Thanks for the smile this morning and for including me in this batch of Santa letters!
Debbie, loved your note and thanks so much for playing along!
When the elf is done at Sara's house, maybe it could come to mine. I have neither the 5 year old's nor the 18 month old's scrapbook of their first year done. :/
Yeah, I'm going to need him too. Maybe we could come up with a scheduled rotation or something? I'll chat with Santa and get back to you on this!
Ditto to all of them! Great Series, Meredith. I have thoroughly enjoyed it!
Thanks so much to you ladies for sending in your funny requests and checking in!
Another great round. I'll take a flying car too please.
That brings us up to a total of four flying cars needed. Hey, the elves still have 3 days to make it happen; I'm holding out hope.
Thanks, Meredith! I'd sure love to sink my teeth into that cheesecake. Yum! Hope you have a lovely week!
Sounds perfect, right Jelli? Thanks for joining in!
Thanks so much for including me in this, Meredith!! I have truly enjoyed reading all these letters this month. Too bad my list for Santa is super long now! I'm definitely on board with the robot, too. It'll fit right in with my flying car!! Merry Christmas to you and your family and I hope Santa brings you everything you want!
Kristy, sounds like your flying car is topping the list this week–thanks for thinking of such a perfect gift and giving us all something to hope for!
Haha, awesome!! It really would be a wonderful gift. Fortunately, I'm not getting my hopes too high.
Well, if not a car, here's hoping some wonderful Christmas blessings come your way!
Thanks for including me Meredith! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you too, Jen, and thanks for playing along!
These are great! Love em!
Thanks for checking in!
Ha! This is great! Thanks for the smile tonight, I needed it.
Anytime, Courtney! Thanks for stopping by
BAHAHAHAHAHA! Another awesome one! Thanks for this. I needed the laugh!!!
Don't you wish we could dream this big all year long, Dani?
Oh this is great.. I love the fun behind it and it is so interactive -how awesome. I would love to not be tired anymore too. I would like a few more hours in my day, a personal assistant, a housekeeper so I can have more time for family and writing and more money to be able to give away. = )
Irish Carter
"Promoting Passionate People"-
Sounds like the PERFECT wish to me, Irish! Thanks so much for sharing and hope some of these dreams magically come true for you!
What a great post idea! I want carrots to taste like cheesecake too!
Me too! We seriously need to figure out how to make this happen
I love how you started this post. Everyone agrees.
I know, Rachel. If only we could make that wish really come true…
I ditto Steph's list. Though, come to think of it, I was nodding yes to every single one of these lists. This was so much fun to be a part of. Thanks for including me. Wouldn't it be nice if Santa let all of the food we ate during the holidays to count as negative calories and we could actually LOSE weight by eating. Now that is some magic I would love. Have a very Merry Christmas, my friend!
I think you're onto something here, AnnMarie! New item for my list now too Thanks so much for sharing your note and playing along
I really love this series and I would definitely take my own barista in a heartbeat! You are right though, I think we would all give up all of our gifts forever to undo the Sandy Hook tragedy
You said it perfectly, Hilary :(…Thanks for checking in.
This is hysterical! After your magic elf comes so you can shower, do you mind sending them to me!!! I totally could use some me time!!! Happy Holidays my friend!
We are definitely going to have to put this elf on a rotation schedule–sounds like we are all in need of one!

In short: Very friendly, well organised, beautiful route - horrible hill at endIn full: This was my first half marathon and I really enjoyed it. The marshals were full of support and they were very encouraging. The last hill came as a bit of a shock to the system as this was not mentioned on the write up but I kept going and made it to the end. Even though I was towards the end I was very impressed by the number of people at the end to welcome us in.I would do it again – even with the 7 mile round trip to get there and would recommend it to any beginner.Date of review: February 24, 2009

The InstantCheck Real Time Display ECG monitor records cardiac functions and displays the readings in a clear waveform. InstantCheck can help to detect heart irregularities at an early stage and therefore, InstantCheck can help to prevent worsening of the heart disease by early detection. InstantCheck is an excellent tool for people suffering with atrial fibrillation and other irregular heart rhythm disorders.
InstantCheck features patient activated continuous mode and can function remotely as a simple event recorder for people with symptomatic or asymptomatic arrhythmias and those on certain heart medications or after cardio-thoracic surgery. InstantCheck ECG can also help primary care physicians to pre-screen patients with cardiac complaint.
InstantCheck ECG is easy to use and there are 2 ways (methods) of use. The first way is to place the thumbs in InstantCheck's specially designed built in conductive electrodes. The second way is to use external self adhesive ECG electrodes pads connected with the main unit by electrode extension cable.
- The first method of using InstantCheck ECG is the simplest as it does not require any electrodes to be placed on the user's body. There are two specially designed integrated conductive electrodes on the main InstantCheck unit. All you have to do is to place your thumbs on the electrodes and gently press down to record the ECG signal. Your thumbs should not be moistened as the InstantCheck integrated electrodes are designed for conducting with dry thumbs. This method of using the InstantCheck ECG is very fast and can be done anytime and anywhere without any inconvenience.
- The second method of using InstantCheck ECG employs external skin electrodes placed on your forearms. The external skin electrodes are connected to the main InstantCheck unit by a special connective cable. This method provides a good option for people who cannot use the thumbs well or find the first method difficult to perform.

Can you explain why Atticus points out to Jem that when injustice occurs, it "seems only children weep" in To Kill a Mockingbird?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Atticus is noting that as people age, they become calloused. They start to care less about the pain they cause each other. This quote is one that occurs after the trial is over. After Jem has also heard all of the evidence, he knows that Tom Robinson is innocent. However, he hears the guilty verdict and KNOWS that the jury made an injust decision. Atticus is hoping that Jem will maintain his care for others long after childhood leaves. Atticus is noting that children are greatly pained by watching inequity occur. It seems that as children, we are taught principles and we believe in their truths. But as we continue to grow, we learn that life isn't fair. It isn't equitable. Atticus knows this principle too, but still strives to see injustice righted.

Ferrer Claims All-Spanish Cincy Clash
Cincinnati, U.S.A.
by ATP Staff
No. 6 seed David Ferrer denied Tommy Robredo his first ATP World Tour Masters 1000 semi-final in eight years, overcoming his countryman 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 at the Western & Southern Open on Friday.
Ferrer advanced to his first semi-final in 11 trips to Cincinnati and third at the Masters 1000 level in 2014 (Monte-Carlo, Madrid). The Spaniard is closing in on the 600-win plateau, improving to 590-285 with the win.
The 32 year old claimed the 10th FedEx ATP Head2Head encounter (8-2) with the 16th-seeded Robredo in two hours and six minutes, winning 74 per cent of first serve points and breaking serve on four of 11 chances. Robredo was unable to overcome 51 unforced errors and 19 forehand winners by Ferrer.
"Well, it's not easy play against a friend," said Ferrer. "Tommy and I have played a lot of times in our careers. I wish him the best luck for the next tournaments."
Watch Hot Shot
Robredo was bidding to become just the third active player – after Ferrer and Rafael Nadal – to reach 200 match wins on both clay and hard courts. The 32-year-old's hard-court record stands at 199-154 and he's 245-113 on clay.
Ferrer will face Julien Benneteau for a berth in his seventh ATP World Tour Masters 1000 final. His lone triumph came on the indoor hard courts of Paris in 2012.

Alcohol causes you forget stuff and some other things a don't remember!
You know you are drunk, when you walk into a door you didn't see.
You know you are drunk, when you wake in the morning and don't know what you did the night before.
A drunk man never tells a lie.
Nothing in life is absolute only vodka
Lips that touch liquor touch other lips quicker…
The doctors found some blood in my alchohol stream.
I drink till I can't see any more.i drink till I can't walk. I drink till I hit the floor.i drink till I am sick. Then I still get up and drink some more
Beer is the cause and solution to all of life's problems! – Homer Simpson
I drink because I work, I work so I can drink.
I'm on whiskey diet… I've lost three days already!
I'm not a alcoholic I'm a drunk alcoholics go 2 meetings
I was so drunk that I fell off the floor.
Drinking is gross BUT I FEEL HOTT WHEN I DO IT
I feel sorry for people who don't drink, because when they wake up in the morning it is going to be the best feeling they experience the whole day!
Don't drink and drive – accidents cause people!
You ask if the glass is half empty or half full,
I ask "Are you gonna finish that beer?"
If you can still read the label,
You need another.
If you can't read the label,
You need another anyway
"The existence of Beer is proof that God loves us." – Benjamin Franklin
Drinking and Driving is the real deal, I drink but never drive…probably because my mom, dad, and 3 brothers where killed by a drunk driver coming from the party I was at…
Act single, see double, drink triple
Don't cry over spilled milk…it could have been beer!
Im too drunk to notice what im doing, so ill think about it later.
"but why is all the rum gone?!?!?!"captin jack sparrow
Help I fell and I can't reach my vodka

Serge Jureidini has resigned as president of Lancôme in the U.S. to become president and chief executive officer of Arcade Marketing.
Jureidini succeeds the late Debra Leipman-Yale, who was president of Arcade Marketing and a beauty industry veteran when she died suddenly in December 2011 of a brain aneurysm.
"I'm [pleased] to be going to an organization with such a rich heritage of innovation, quality and service, which has allowed it to become the dynamic leader in its field," he said of Arcade, a pioneer in the use of scented strips. Jureidini added, "I'm grateful for the 20 years at L'Oréal, the fulfilling experiences the company gave to me around the world. I will especially miss the talented people, the competitive spirit and the unique portfolio of aspirational brands."
Jureidini is a longtime L'Oréal employee who joined the group in 1992 as a sales manager for the Luxury Products Division. In 1995, he became account manager for Lancôme's North American travel retail business. In 1997, he was appointed general manager for the Travel Retail Division in Asia. He was named general manager for Giorgio Armani in the U.S. in 2000 and was promoted to president of the designer fragrance division in 2006. He has held his current role as president of Lancôme in the U.S. since May 2008, reporting to Carol Hamilton, president of L'Oréal Luxe USA.
While at L'Oréal, Jureidini oversaw key launches in the U.S., including Giorgio Armani's color cosmetics line and Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf.
"We thank Serge for his many contributions to the Luxe Division in his years with the company," said Hamilton. "We respect his decision and are fully committed to taking the Lancôme brand to even greater heights in the years ahead."
Jureidini's successor has not yet been named. In the meantime, the brand will report directly to Hamilton.
