"Unfortunately, our nation has become a standing joke for racist idiots" said Olive Mweseke, Exterior Minister for the tiny West African state of Bonjeu-Bonjeu.
"In fact, many people don't realise we exist. We may be small, but we have a proud history as a French colony, then as a member of your fine Commonwealth. We are happy that UKIP at least acknowledge this, even if the context of the statement was slightly disturbing"
Mr. Mweseke went on to praise the populace for the gravitas and dignity with which they comport themselves, despite being an international laughing stock, but hinted that his job would be a lot easier if they changed the name to fucking Narnia.

1996 Toyota Supra Turbo 2dr Coupe
The car performs amazingly. Big power pins you into your seat. The brakes and suspension are up for anything you throw at them. Huge grip on curvy roads, and the car just sounds amazing at full tilt. Don't stay on it too long, or you risk your driver's license. Definitely a very capable car that can run with anything on the road, or away from it. Driven sedately, it's as mild as your family sedan. Gets lots of looks, and it's very reliable. Fit and finish is great, considering the newest MKIV Supra is already 9 years old. They are holding their value really well, fueled by a very active aftermarket presence. Buy one if you want a great performing Japanese machine.
I love everything about the car.
Well, the traction control is very active in controlling. Maybe all the power keeps triggering the traction control system. There is a defeat button, but it seems to have little effect on this electronic nanny. I guess Toyota didn't trust Supra owners not getting in over their heads.

the supra has a targa top wich makes it look even better when you take it off

BONDURANT, Iowa -- Last fall, when Bondurant-Farrar High School needed a big tackle or wanted to go deep, the team called on No. 5, Chris Norton. "He's one of those guys that if there was going to be a collision someplace, there was going to be contact; Chris Norton was going to be involved with it," said Adam Busch, Bondurant-Farrar football coach. Norton has so many highlights that high school Friday nights turned into Saturday afternoons at Luther College. But last Saturday, the freshman covering a kick against Central College made one of those big hits that left him motionless. "It was determined there that it was serious spine injury. At that time he did not have feeling anywhere below his neck," said Peter Michell, a Norton family friend. Norton didn't move, but his parents leaped to their feet. "This is the only time they've had to make that parent run from the stands onto the field or onto the court," said Michell. The game stopped for 25 minutes, while fans prayed. "To feel that sense of surrounding of prayer and comfort there in the stands, and then it didn't take long, in a town this size, for word to get around," said Mitchell. "Yeah, it was a shock. It still is a shock and I'm not sure it's sunk in with a lot of people. A lot of questions," said Busch. The guy who wore No. 5 in high school and No. 16 in college was flown to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, where he was given a 3 percent chance of ever moving again. "And since that time, mobility and feeling has increased. There's now feeling in his feet, slowly moving up his legs," said Mitchell. It is a big step, but there's many more steps to recovery still ahead of him. Friends are planning to gather donations for Norton during the regional volleyball game on Tuesday night. They're also going to gather here on the school's football field to keep the Norton family in their prayers on Wednesday night. "He has a great determination to be mobile again," said Michell. "If anybody had a chance to come back from something like this, I'd put my money in his corner. I would certainly be betting on Chris Norton. That's just the way this kid is," said Busch. Iowa Football Star Suffers Serious Injury - Des Moines News Story - KCCI Des Moines Sad Story.
Hope Chris gets better. He played on my 6th grade little league football team. Heck of a football player!
"Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing."
Chris is about the best kid you could you ask for to represent your town. He is a hard worker and is loved by the community. (even if he is a hawk fan:) CaringBridge / chrisnorton / Welcome They are having a fund raiser for him at tonights Volleyball game in Bondurant and a quick service at the Football field for thoughts and prayers. *Fields Of Faith: Wednesday at 830 pm. Bondurant Football field Come join the community in saying a prayer for Chris
To be fair, the swelling in his spine hasn't been totally gone down, so the prognosis is too early on "paralyzed".
John Walters is my hero
Originally Posted by CycoCyclone To be fair, the swelling in his spine hasn't been totally gone down, so the prognosis is too early on "paralyzed". I was going to say. If he is able to feel his legs and move them a little bit wouldn't that not be paralyzed? I wish him the best tho. It seems like this was a bad weekend for footballl injuries.
Hooray for Metaphors!
Temporarily paralyzed is a term. So yes, he is still paralyzed.
Is that the second college football player seriously injured on a kick return this past week or so? Add to that Kevin Everett's injury during a kick return, and suddenly one of perhaps the most seemingly mundane portion of a football game becomes so much more dangerous. Hope both Chris and Eric LeGrand can get better. I know that during Kevin Everett made a recovery beyond that of the initial expectations, and that his training as an athlete played a large role in that recovery. Let's pray that the same type of miraculous recovery can happen in these two cases.
Originally Posted by tman24 I was going to say. If he is able to feel his legs and move them a little bit wouldn't that not be paralyzed? I wish him the best tho. It seems like this was a bad weekend for footballl injuries. There are different degrees of paralysis. From what I remember, anything from minor loss of leg function to full on paraplegia counts as paralysis, what really matters is the spinal cord injury.

My name is Eris. I am 38 years old, a retired Carolina and DC Rollergirl, an obsessive knitter, and a Web developer for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General. I live in Raleigh, NC.
I love swing dancing, loose tea, being outdoors, road biking, distance running, hoop dance, playing djembe, calligraphy, and many many many many other things (more things than I have time for).
I'm polite, well-mannered, and cleanly. My husband and I travel often for work and for dance events. I'm very excited about Airbnb, as I think this is an excellent way to see places up-close and personal.
Eris has completed online and offline ID verification.
Eris and Halek were a delight. They are experienced Airbnbers and gave me the impression they truly enjoyed my home.
Eris was a wonderful guest at Waterfall Cottage during her brief stay. She was respectful and appreciative, leaving the place in superb condition upon her departure. I hope to host her again in the future!
Eris was FABULOUS :) Just like her other reviews, it was also true with my house. Guests like her are the reason why I do Airbnb, people like her are great communicators, easy to deal with, and appreciative. She arrived on time, let me know when she was leaving and I would welcome them back anytime!
They say you're not supposed to have favorites, but I have to be honest - Eris is my FAVORITE guest. This is her second time gracing my home with her positive energy and I'm so glad she returned :)
Eris and her friend were great guests! We had differing schedules so not much contact during their stay but they were quiet and respectful of the property and left everything washed and in good shape. I'd highly recommend them as your airbnb guests.
Eris was such a sweetheart! We didn't get to spend much time together, but she seemed super cool and was a wonderfully considerate guest. She even brought me chocolates! Come back soon, Eris!!!
Eris IS the reason I do Airbnb, guests like this make me want to stay on Airbnb till the end of time :) She was simply lovely, in every way. Thank you for bringing your positive energy into my home, I truly appreciate it. Tidy, great communication - all that jazz - do yourself a favor and host Eris!
Jessica was a pleasure to have as a guest. We got to know each other a little bit and she is a fascinating gal, full of energy, and kindness. We hope to see you again next time!!
Jessica was a wonderful guest- She communicated her plans in advance, was friendly & very respectful. She is welcome back anytime!
Jessica is wonderful! I liked her completely immediately and i guess i always will. I was so happy she was here, so glad she came, and I'm looking forward to seeing her again (soon!).

Audit finds financial missteps in Grandview schools
UPDATED 9:35 PM CDT Aug 26, 2014A state audit finds money missing in the Grandview, Mo., school district.
Video TranscriptIT'S HAPPENING IN LEE'S SUMMIT. HE'S EXPECTED TO ALSO MAKE A TRIP TO ST. LOUIS TOMORROW. AN AUDIT REVEALS NEARLY $1 MILLION MISSING FROM GRANDVIEW SCHOOLS. PARENTS WANT TO KNOW WHERE'S THE CASH. BRYAN BUSBY SPOKE WITH THE AUDITOR. HE JOINS US. THE GRANDVIEW DISTRICT WAS GIVEN A FAIR RATING, THE SECOND-TO-WORST RATING A SCHOOL CAN GET. SOME ARE SAYING THE DISTRICT IS DOING THE BEST IT CAN. IT'S HOW THE DISTRICT SPENT THE MONEY. IT TURNED OUT THE INVESTOR HASN'T DONE ANY OF THE $820,000. THAT'S SERIOUSLY PROBLEMATIC. THAT'S NOT THE ONLY ISSUE. THE DISTRICT SPENT BOND MONEY ON ATHLETIC AND BAND UNIFORMS, SOMETHING NOT ALLOWED BY LAW. AND THEY DIDN'T BALANCE THEIR ACCOUNT DURING A THREE-YEAR PERIOD. THERE'S SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE WAY THEY BUDGETED. THERE WERE SOME PROBLEMS WITH TRACKING, SUN SHINE LAW COMPLIANCE. THOSE WHO SIGNED THE PETITION FEEL VINDICATED. OUR KIDS ARE GETTING SHORT CHANGED HERE, YOU KNOW, AND I THINK IT'S JUST A SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS FOR OUR KIDS. OTHERS STAND BY THE DISTRICT.

Noam Chomsky: The U.S. Is Trying to Put an End to Its Extreme Isolation

Loyal Opposition

Back in 2006, the Iraq Study Group said that all U.S. combat brigades in Iraq should be out by now. They also warned that an escalation, or "surge," "would not solve the fundamental cause of violence in Iraq."
Rudy Giuliani is in damage control mode, now that people have noticed that during his two-month tour as a member of the Iraq Study Group he missed two meetings in order to make paid appearances. The candidate called his participation in the group a mistake, both because he intended to run for office and because it "didn't seem that I would really be able to keep the thing focused on a bipartisan, nonpolitical resolution."
Left: CNN.com / Right: wikipedia.org
Over the president's objections, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi plans to visit the president of Syria next weekend. Pelosi's spokesman said the meeting was inspired by the Iraq Study Group, which recommended engaging regional players—a recommendation the Bush administration has so far ignored.
The president has delayed a speech announcing possible changes in his Iraq strategy because, according to White House press secretary Tony Snow, he didn't feel it was ready. Snow was careful to say that didn't mean Bush was planning last-minute changes. Does that mean an ineffective strategy should remain in place, with the death toll mounting, because the rhetoric needs work?
Columnist and comedian Will Durst explores the irony of delivering a report to a president who doesn't read. Of the Iraq Study Group's 79 recommendations, Durst writes: "Unfortunately none of them involved the President and his entire Cabinet resigning, proving perhaps this study group should've studied more."
By Dwayne Powell —
Despite all the attention focused on the Iraq Study Group's report, one of its more damaging allegations has largely escaped media scrutiny: The Pentagon and intelligence agencies are drastically underreporting acts of violence in Iraq. The panel said that one day the U.S. reported 93 acts of violence when in fact there were more than 1,100. (h/t: Randi Rhodes)
Sen. Russ Feingold critiques the Iraq Study Group report and argues for a more holistic approach to counter-terrorism: "The Iraq Study Group essentially sees Iraq the same way that most of official Washington does—as the be-all and end-all of our foreign and national security policy. Nothing could be further from the truth…."
With Tony Blair by his side, the president was careful on Thursday to laud the Iraq Study Group's report, but maintain his stance on troop withdrawals and diplomacy. In particular, Bush said he would not compromise on preconditions for talks with Syria and Iran.
The Iraq Study Group Report makes clear that you can't whip up a representative government by buying a cake mix or holding a single election and declaring victory.
Responding to the Iraq Study Group report on Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said talks with Syria were not possible, and that President Bush wasn't interested in speaking to Damascus either: "I can only say that the opinions I heard from the president and from all senior administration staff on the Syrian issue are such that he did not see a feasibility in talks…."
Flipping through the news channels on Wednesday, one would have seen an endless parade of pundits and politicians praising the Iraq Study Group's report. One exception was a man who was critical of the war before it was in style, Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.), who told "Countdown's" Keith Olbermann: "The fact is, this commission was composed apparently entirely of people who did not have the judgment to oppose this Iraq war in the first place…." Watch it
The Iraq Study Group has offered its anticlimactic advice on the war, but how will we address that other quagmire in Cuba, where some 430 anonymous prisoners languish in limbo?

CALGARY, Alberta – Being involved in practices and morning skates is another major hurdle that Ducks winger Joffrey Lupul has cleared on his path back from injury, but it's going to take a lot longer for him to actually appear in a game — next season.
Although he's holding out hope for a "minor miracle" if the Ducks can somehow squeeze into the postseason and advance, the reality is Lupul is officially done for this season and will need to set his eyes toward 2010-11.
"To be back out there is obviously a big step in the right direction," said Lupul, who was dogged by a bad back in training camp and an infection following his surgery in December. "I haven't been cleared for any contact or anything like that and I won't be during the regular season. The doctors made that clear to me. It's frustrating in that sense.
"Even when I get myself feeling better here, I probably won't be able to get back and help the guys."
Like his team, Lupul isn't about to give up on this season, adding that "my hope is to be back for the start of the playoffs."
"I'm their biggest fan right now," he said Tuesday. "I'm hoping we can pull off a minor miracle here and get to the playoffs. And hopefully I'll be able to come back and help us.
"A lot of things have to go right for me right now. I'm not going to quit working."
Lupul has joined the team on the road for the first time since his surgery. He was limited to just 23 games but still flashed his goal-scoring ability by finding the net 10 times despite playing on several lines.
But this season has been largely written off as the back injury kept the winger from giving the Ducks a return on the Chris Pronger trade to Philadelphia that brought Lupul back to Southern California.
"It's been really frustrating," Lupul said. "But I'm not going to whine about it or pout about it. Obviously I wish the whole situation never happened. But it has happened.
"That's why we're professionals too. It's easy to come here and be a good teammate and have a smile on your face when things are going great for you. When you're having these up and down moments, that's what I think shows your true character."
Mikkelson recalled
The Ducks recalled Brendan Mikkelson from Toronto (AHL) so they wouldn't have to thrust recently signed prospect Jake Newton into a situation where he would have to play if an injury were to happen among their six defensemen on this trip.
Carlyle said he's received a good report on Mikkelson's progress while playing for the Marlies the past three months.
"He's just played very well," Carlyle said. "He's their go-to guy on defense. They're very happy with him. In conversations that we've had with (Marlies coach) Dallas Eakins in Toronto, he's his No. 1 guy. If there's any situation they want to put a defenseman in, he's their guy.
"That's great for Mikk and hopefully he gets an opportunity here when the time arises and he can take it and run with it a little while longer than he has in the past."
Bobby Ryan was back in the lineup after stomach problems Sunday morning kept him out against Colorado. Ryan said he thinks the source of his food poisoning was some shrimp he ate Saturday night. ... Saku Koivu was also in the lineup after taking an errant puck in his upper lip against the Avalanche. ... The Ducks signed University of Minnesota-Duluth center Rob Bordson to a two-year entry level contract. Bordson, 21, had 12 goals and 28 assists this season.

Welcome to Week 28 of the Big Idea Portfolio. This week, I've touched a new low thanks to sell-offs in the shares of Riverbed Technology (Nasdaq: RVBD ) and salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM ) . More on what's holding back my portfolio, and more tech-stock news, in a minute. First, let's dig into the numbers:
Company |
Starting Price* |
Recent Price |
Total Return |
Apple | $422.46 | $604.97 | 43.2% |
$650.09 | $576.52 | (11.3%) | |
Rackspace Hosting | $41.65 | $43.35 | 4.1% |
Riverbed Technology | $25.95 | $14.20 | (45.3%) |
Salesforce.com | $100.93 | $130.55 | 29.3% |
Source: Yahoo! Finance.
* Tracking began at market close on Jan. 6, 2012.
** Adjusted for dividends and other returns of capital.
The week that was
A rare week of divergence among the major indexes helped Mr. Market extend his lead in our three-year tussle. Both the Dow, up 0.04% for the week, and the S&P 500, up 0.15%, inched higher as the tech heavy Nasdaq fell almost 1%. The small-cap Russell 2000 also fell, ending a two-week winning streak with a 0.76% decline, CNBC reports.
Interestingly, banks were among the week's big winners. Warren Buffett favorite Wells Fargo rose 2.5% on strong growth in its mortgage banking business while shares of JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM ) rallied nearly 6% on better-than-expected earnings results. Apparently, investors aren't too concerned about ballooning European trading losses -- now estimated at roughly $5.8 billion, up from $2 billion in May.
We'll see if that lasts. Profits drive returns, after all, though external forces and perception always play a role in the short term. Monetary policy, too, has a say on returns. The Federal Reserve recently completed a study of the influence of its rate-setting activities and found a startling number of correlations, as my Foolish colleague Morgan Housel reports.
Tech poppers and floppers
Among the innovators, Netflix (Nasdaq: NFLX ) extended a rally as San Diego's annual Comic-Con festival put media and entertainment stocks in the spotlight. Shares of the streaming sensation are up more than 35% over the past month.
Is the enthusiasm warranted? There are plenty of skeptics, to be sure, but as the frenzied crowds at Comic-Con show, there's a hunger for bleeding-edge digital entertainment. Netflix is already streaming Marvel Studios flicks Thor and Captain America: The First Avenger and will get this year's blockbuster, The Avengers, in 2013. Another box-office winner, The Hunger Games, arrives this fall. Chief competitor Hulu in pales by comparison in its selections.
Meanwhile, back in my portfolio, cloud-computing stocks Riverbed and salesforce.com joined in a sectorwide beating after Acme Packet (Nasdaq: APKT ) underperformed expectations in preannouncing second-quarter results last week.
Poor results from one company don't necessarily represent a systemic problem. Yet in selling off Riverbed and Salesforce, investors are behaving as if that exactly what we have here: an industrywide sales rut that could take years to recover from. New data from Gartner is more optimistic.
Who's right? You tell me. Use the comments box below to list your favorite tech stocks over the next three to five years and tell us why you like them.

I'm up to season 3 of the CBS Action repeats here in the UK and the show looks so damned fuzzy, like an old VHS tape. I read somewhere it was due to the conversion from NTSC to PAL.
Any truth to that? Are we in the UK due an extra treat?
Nope. PAL is usually 576i and NTSC 480i in 4:3 resolution. Because it's being taken from 35mm film, and converted to 1080p we'll both be seeing the same thing.

Not much to say here, I decided to submit more music after one of my songs, Castle Crash The Battle! reached 12000 listens, so here's a song I submitted to the online singing competition, Sing It!
It can be found at VirtualHollywood . net and it's a lot of fun.
I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it.
But enjoy it all the same!
Peace, love, and bromance,
Sam Haft
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Wow just wow man. Im a huge fan of queen an im usually pretty biased aginst people who try their songs. But you give it your style and an amazing voice and performance. I would try to find anything to critique this on.................but I cant. Good job man this is going on my iPod.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
"An ok interpretation with appropriate intonation"
I would work more on your control over sustaining your voice on loud notes. There were also some moments where your interpretation went in a lower octave than the original performance, which sorta let me down. When you are releasing some of your phrases it gets a little shaky or you cut it off shorter than I would expect....
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
I think I just found a song to love.
Great singing, great music, great accompaniment! Everything was in perfect balance in this song. You definitely put effort into this song. It must have torn your soul to bits to try to squeeze this much awesome into one song. I particularly like the beginning. The only part that could have been a little better would have been the end. I don't know why I didn't like it...probably because it was the end of the song! Ha ha!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
you made me smile
firstly queen is amazing!! and this song is killer hard i did it on rockband (( lame i know)) but i sucked it up haha. but u did a great job especially the end u hit the note! im surprised only 3 people reviewed this submission. ...also btw i enjoy your voice.
Thanks so much!
Totally appreciate the review, and I hope to put more music up that you'll hear!

Jul 21, 2010
The truck was heading west on the E/W connector and turned left onto Highlands Ridge in front of the motorcyle coming from the opposite direction. I did not talk to the driver of the truck but know he was very upset. There are security cameras at the intersection so I'm sure they will help with the investigation. Please give my sympathy to the family.

This is my cousin's husband. I just spoke to my Aunt becuse I just heared about it.
They are going this morning to make arangements. It really hurts so much that a few weeks ago we had a Family reunion and it was the first one I every went to. I was looking forward to seeing Pam & David, but they got stuck at a service station because it was pouring down rain so hard. They were riding on the motorcycle. They show up later, but a lot of us were gone. Life is to short, forgive and forget. Tell that person how you feel because no one is promised tomorrow. RIP. David.You are a wonderful Husband & Dad...Please keep the family in your prayers. |

4 Ohm fullrangers, DC Gold?
Hello all!
I plan to build reasonably sized OBs with good bass (at the expense of low sensitivity) using this: http://www.monacor.de/de/produktseit...3&spr=DE&typ=u and this http://www.intertechnik.de/index.htm...3567&suchwort= I consider 4Ohm essential because the coils are expensive enough that way. Now I am searching for a 4Ohm fullranger. I heard the little Jordan as midranger in a japanese box and I didn`t like it too much. Ciare`s 4 Ohm fullrangers all have whizzers, even the 4". The Supravox 165LB is a bit expensive. Does anybody have experiences with DC Gold (former Babb)? I fear they are not so different than Jordan, because they also have aluminium diaphragms and single suspension. Oliver |

The BB 3.01 is approx. 4 ohm:
http://www.lautsprechershop.de/hifi/...esaudio_en.htm It gets favorable press, as far as I can see. Please post anything further you find, I'm looking at 4 ohm fullranges too, as I'm using Tripath amps. |

Here is a Monacor that should be perfect for BIB:
http://www.monacor.de/de/produktseit...id=2153&spr=EN For this project I want something without whizzer. Concerning the Omnes made by Tangband I first have to see what sensitivity I get in the bass after linearization, i.e. whether the series resistor for the fullranger increases the Qts far enough. Meanwhile I heard about the Jordan in an other forum that it is not recommended for OB because it needs the compressed air as a second suspension. I have asked DC Gold whether they have the same problem with their drivers, waiting for reply. An alternative project would be Hawthorne Augie plus Ciare HX132. I saw a FR graph of the Augie in the Nobox and the bass extension is impressive, just peaky at the resonace frequency. http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazin...er_project.htm Wonder how it would be in a plain baffle. |

Upload Photos Anytime, Anywhere! Uploading 101
At Photobucket, we give your photos a safe place to call home so that you can store, share, edit and print your memories with ease.
Never lose a photo again! We've created several upload options to ensure that you can safely and simply back up all of your photos anytime, anywhere.
Upload Options:
Directly to Album
- Create a new album, or navigate to the existing album you would like to upload to.
- Drag single or multiple photos and videos from your desktop directly into the album.
- You can also click the hotspot to open a file browser and choose photos to upload that way.
- Voila! Your upload should begin.
Import from Facebook
- Click the orange "Upload" option at the top of the page, select the Facebook tab from the upload options, then select "Add Photos".
- If you haven't already linked your Facebook account, enter your Facebook login when prompted.
- 'Select all' is chosen by default. Alternatively, you can pick and choose what you want to upload by clicking 'Unselect all' and then checking the 'Select' box under individual albums.
- When you're ready to import, click the 'Add from Facebook' button on the right.
Upload from Email
Uploading from email or MMS message is a great way to upload photos from your home computer or mobile device, even if you are not logged in!
To begin, you will need to know your upload address, which contains a mobile PIN number.
- Log in to your Photobucket account.
- Click on your username and then User Settings, then navigate to the Mobile tab.
- Copy the address in the Upload from email panel. This address never changes.
Now that you know your upload address, follow these steps to upload from your Email:
- Log into your Email account, and create a new message. Paste the upload address in the To: field.
- Add an attachment, and browse your computer for the image or video that you would like to upload.
- Enter the album name in the Subject field if you want to upload to an album other than your default album. Case counts, so make sure you type the album name exactly as it appears in your account.
Note: If you upload to an album other than your default, it must be at the first level in your default album.
You can follow the above steps to upload an image via text message as well, provided that your phone supports MMS messaging.
Auto Backup
If you're a first time Photobucket app user, you'll be prompted right away to turn auto backup on. If you've already chosen to disable auto backup, you can simply turn the feature back on.
Open the app, then hit the menu icon in the top corner. For iOS users, tap Backup, then tap Enable. Only the wording is different on Android – tap the menu icon, then tap Backup, then tap Start Auto Backup.
That's it! You did it! For iOS users, head over here for more info on your auto backup options (wi-fi only, default album, etc.). Android users, click here.

Photobucket is a great place to safely store photos. You can get up to 10GB of storage with a free account, and upgrade for more if desired. Click here to see our storage options: http://photobucket.com/pricing
July 19, 2014I hope I can go back to ordering my prints on Photobucket and then picking them up at my local CVS drugstore. Saves a lot on shipping when I just want to order a small number of photos….was a very convenient feature!

July 20, 2014I am quite frustrated with Photobucket. It has disconnected all my photos making them essentially unusable and I cannot find how to unlock some I edited.
As with much on the computer, you say we can simply do something, but it is not so simple when one does not know how!

September 9, 2014I have looked high and low read everything twice asked my friends saw that others have shared photos on message boards I don't get it I see where. I see I can have my pictures printed . I uploaded 3 pictures , that works . If photobucket is not intended to store my pictures so I can link them please suggest a site that allows that.
thanks in advance

Photobucket is a great place to store and link photos. You can learn more about linking here: http://support.photobucket.com/hc/en-us/articles/200724324-Link-Codes-Embedding-or-Linking-Photos-and-Videos
September 12, 2014The email explanation above is unclear. I wish to keep my pix in separate albums – can I input an album name and then input pix to that album, and if so how, please?
Hannah Moorhead
September 12, 2014Hello,
You can keep your photos separated in different albums. Go to your library. On the right hand side under "actions", find and click on "Create Album". Give the album a name (i.e. Summer Vacation). Then, choose that album from the list of all your albums on the right hand side. Once you are in that album, you can drag and drop photos you wish to add, or click the "upload photos here" hotspot and choose your photos to upload.

In order for others to upload photos to your account, you will need to give them your log in information, and they will then be able to log in as you and upload photos to your albums.

Field of Dreams Star Kevin Costner Celebrates 25th Anniversary at Iowa Festival

Actor Colin Egglesfield wasn't in the classic baseball film Field of Dreams.
But if they built a screen in center field, he would come.
When Egglesfield heard about plans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the movie's release during Father's Day weekend in Iowa, he flew to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, picked up his dad and drove six hours to the farm where it was filmed.
The Los Angeles-based Egglesfield, most recently seen on TV shows such as Rizzoli and Isles and The Client List, and his father reached rural Dyersville in time for a viewing of the movie on the outfield grass with scores of others, including star Kevin Costner.
That's when "Hey dad, you want to have a catch?" got them all, all over again.

Muhammad Hanif
Muhammad Hanif (Arabic: محمد حنيف) (died 2008) was an Afghan who served as a spokesman for Taliban, particularly in eastern Afghanistan, prior to his capture in Nangarhar Province on 17 January 2007.[1] The BBC reported[1] the following information at the time. Hanif and Qari Mohammad Yousuf were appointed in October 2005 after the previous spokesman, Latifullah Hakimi, was captured. Their main tool of communication was e-mail to news organizations. On the day of his capture, Afghan intelligence officials released a recording of part of Hanif's interrogation. In this recording Hanif tells his interrogators that the Taliban's leader Mullah Omar is staying in the city of Quetta, Pakistan, under the protection of the ISI, Pakistan's intelligence agency. Aftab Ahmad Sherpao, Pakistan's Interior Minister, denied Hanif's assertion. Gul Agha Sherzai, the Governor of Nangarhar, claimed Hanif and two companions were captured in possession of anthrax. (The claim about anthrax was never substantiated.)
Shortly after the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, Hanif reached the press by means of a satellite telephone, and read a statement[2] about the "martyr" which he claimed was written by Mullah Omar.
Hanif and three others were killed at his home in Nangarhar in late November 2008.[3]

Celebrity Silhouette Cruise Review by tigershark12: Holy Land 9/3/11
Member Rating
Compare Prices on Celebrity Silhouette Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruises
Holy Land 9/3/11
Prior to our cruise we also read the not so flattering reviews of the Silhouette. What we found was, that this cruise was excellent in all the areas we encountered. Service at all levels was great. We found that the crew went the extra mile to attend to needs.
Case in point; At the Passport bar I asked for Hendricks gin. The bartender didn't have any on hand. So, he got on the phone, called all over the ship, found some at the Sky lounge and said "I'll be right back". Up to deck 12 back down and poured me a drink. Service doesn't get better than that. There were many other instances of being made to feel special. One thing that really struck me was how personable many of the crew was.
The food was better than we expected in the MDR. Service was exceptional. We did select dining but kept asking for the same crew. We ate at Murano twice and Tuscan once. I felt they were worth the money.
One pet peeve I have is finding a place on deck when many people put More
"stuff" on chairs and don't use them. The staff did periodically come by and remove towels if no one was there for a while. I just asked someone near by if anyone had been around in the last half hour. If not, we just sat down and moved in.
We never felt crowded or rushed. The big ship certainly had lots to do and provided a sense of intimacy. Great places to "hide out" and watch the day go by.
In all this was a great cruise. We're booked for another next year Less

Motorcycle Helmet Reviews
The Caberg Tourmax is the "World's first enduro flip-up helmet".
The helmet is also homologated to both the P and J ECE standard, which means it is legal for use when riding a motorcycle as either a full-face (visor locked) or as a "Jet" style helmet (visor locked in the upright position).
The Tourmax is definitely a unique helmet and it works surprisingly well and it should become very popular.
The Tourmax is comfortable, relatively quiet and it feels solid.
It even has a "bonus" internal sun visor.
The peak rotates back when the flip-up visor is raised and the peak snaps into place when the visor is lowered.
The Tourmax was announced at the 2013 EICMA show and it will be arriving at European retailers soon.
Caberg is celebrating their 40th anniversary and what better way to do it than to release a brand-new category-busting helmet.
Caberg is still trying to find a U.S. distributor and, to be honest, I'm very surprised and disappointed that this hasn't yet happened. Caberg helmets are innovative, stylish, functional and 100% made in Italy. You need more? All you have to do is read one of the many webBikeWorld Caberg helmet reviews and I think you'll agree.
But about the Tourmax...I'll admit that both of us were a bit skeptical at first because sometimes too many features can result in helmet with just as many compromises (Want an example? Read the webBikeWorld HJC IS-Multi review).
When I first heard about the Tourmax, I wondered how a dual-sport helmet with a peak could possibly be made to work correctly in either configuration. Would it be too complicated, too heavy, too impractical...or all of the above?
As it turns out, our doubts were unwarranted. The Tourmax is a surprisingly nice helmet that looks good and works well. It feels very solid and the ingenious flip-up mechanism works like a charm. The peak feels as sturdy as most of the off-road helmets we've reviewed. And the Tourmax is both functional and comfortable and it has excellent outward visibility.
So let's take a closer look and then please let us know what you think about the new Caberg Tourmax!
The Tourmax shown here is a near-production final prototype that is representative of an actual production version. This one is in the Caberg "Sonic" graphic, which complements the helmet's styling quite nicely.
The Tourmax will also be delivered in Metallic White, Matt Black and Matt Gunmetal and hopefully a high-visibility version will come later. Caberg has also just announced that the Tourmax will be made available in a black version with the Sonic graphics (photo) also.
The styling and the Sonic graphics ensure that the Tourmax fits into the Caberg family tree and the graphics and build quality are excellent.
Maybe we shouldn't have been surprised at this, but the overall build quality is outstanding and all of the parts feel substantial and work together quite smoothly, with no looseness or plastic squeaking noises or anything like that. This tells me that the design and its implementation must be pretty good.
In all respects, the helmet feels and works just like a Caberg and doesn't feel unusual when it's on my head. The face shield, internal sun visor and the rotating flip-up visor all work just as expected. When the large rubberized rotating flip-up visor button in the front of the chin bar is released, the visor can be raised and the peak automatically rotates back and out of the way. You can see how it works in our video below.
The removable liner is comfortable and I can even fit my eyeglasses inside. The ear pockets are very shallow, as seems to be current Caberg practice, but the Tourmax is prepped for the Caberg "Just Speak" Bluetooth communication system, with molded recesses for the microphone (on the back of the chin bar) and speakers.
The bottom line is that the Caberg Tourmax is a very unique helmet but we really can't idenfity any compromises in the design and it works very nicely in all configurations.
Score: We'll give the Caberg Tourmax an "Outstanding" rating for the graphics and design and the overall quality. See the Summary Table at the bottom of the page for a description of our rating system.
Our Tourmax is a size large and the internal shape feels similar to other Caberg flip-up helmets we've reviewed, with a "Neutral" internal profile that's perhaps a touch narrow on the sides. I have a "Round" or "Earth" shaped head (widest at the temples) and the Tourmax fits fine, with no pressure points.
Caberg uses the standard helmet size range and the large is labeled as fitting a 59-60 cm head. My head is 60.5 cm and I can squeeze it in; anything bigger than that should go to the XL, which fits a 61-62 cm.
The padding is comfortable, as is the liner fabric, but since our near-final production prototype arrived, Caberg said that the cheek pad lining thickness will be increased by 0.5 cm on each side. The liner is removable and washable and has a hypoallergenic treatment.
I can fit different pairs of eyeglasses and sunglasses in the Tourmax, even with my wide head shape. The shallow ear pocket design, typical for a Caberg helmet, helps in this regard because there's nothing to catch the tips of the temples or "arms" of the eyeglasses and they slide right in and over my ears.
The liner also has a large collar around the bottom, which helps to seal out noise and air, although the shape along the bottom of the helmet shell still seems to let in some air behind my ears, which increases the volume slightly.
Overall, the Tourmax is a very comfortable fit and the shape should be quite satisfactory for a huge range of rider head shapes. Opening the rotating flip-up visor feels just like it should for any flip-up type helmet the Tourmax can be worn with the visor up and locked as a J or "Jet" helmet in the ECE standard. However, the peak will definitely catch a lot of air when the helmet is worn this way, so it's best for low speed riding only if at all.

More information on helmet fit can be found in the webBikeWorld Motorcycle Helmet FAQ page, along with the chart that lists the helmet weights of webBikeWorld reviewed helmets and also by shape on the webBikeWorld Motorcycle Helmet Shapes page.
Score: We'll give the Caberg Tourmax an "Excellent" rating for shape, comfort and padding. The liner fabric is comfortable also.
The Tourmax has a wide and tall chin bar and the eye port is angled up slightly on either side of the lower half, towards the 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock positions. At first, we wondered if this design would affect the outward visibility.
But, in a pleasant surprise, the Tourmax actually has excellent visibility in both the horizontal and vertical planes. In fact, the vertical view is quite exceptional, especially towards the bottom, with a huge view of the outside world that is even better than most other flip-up helmets. This is ideal for a dual-sport helmet, where you may be standing on the foot pegs but need more forward/downward visibility to see the instruments.
The angled portions of the chin bar at 4 and 8 o'clock can be seen, but they're not as bothersome as I anticipated and it doesn't take long to get used to them; the angles sort of disappear into the background after you realize that they don't affect vision very much at all and that the generous view from the Tourmax eye port makes up for it.
The operation of the face shield is normal and will be familiar to any flip-up owner. The lift tab is in the center at the bottom and it has a mild "V" shape. The face shield lifts through 5 detents to the raised position and each one feels firm. The first detent, however, isn't as small as I'd like for defogging or city riding.
But on the plus side, you probably won't need much defogging assistance anyway, because the Tourmax comes with a Pinlock insert, which has been working very well in the cold and damp weather we've been experiencing here recently.
The rotating flip-up visor feels sturdy and reliable and it operates smoothly. It hits a detent when fully raised, then a slider lock on the left-hand side can be snapped forward and that locks the flip-up visor in the raised position, where it can stay and the helmet is now in the J or "Jet" configuration. The lock is handy also when fueling the bike or whenever you want the visor to remain open without fear of suddenly closing.
The Tourmax also has a bonus: an internal sun visor. It is engaged via a slider along the upper rear of the helmet and although it looks somewhat similar to the sliders found on modern HJC flip-up helmets, it does not have the complicated spring-loaded action of the HJC helmets.
The Caberg slider uses friction to hold the sun visor in an intermediate position. When the slider runs all the way to the top front (lowering the internal sun visor for the rider), it hits a detent which helps keep the sun visor "locked" and lowered and with good coverage for the rider.
The peak that makes the Tourmax a dual-sport helmet looks good, swings out of the way with the rotating flip-up visor and it's also functional. Many peaks are not. This one even blocks some of the overhead sun, which is more than can be said for others I've tried. It feels surprisingly rigid and overall we've impressed with the engineering that went into the helmet.
Eye Port Visibility Estimator: Caberg Tourmax
Visibility | Poor | Below Average | Average | Above Average | Outstanding |
Top to Bottom | ■ | ||||
Side to Side | ■ |
Score: The Caberg Tourmax has outstanding vertical visibility and excellent horizontal visibility. We'll give it an "Excellent" rating overall.
The Caberg Tourmax has a large chin vent "array" in the front. The air flows up on to the back of the face shield and there are no other vent channels through the chin bar.
The chin vent is "on" all the time; that is, it doesn't have an on/off switch but this hasn't bothered me in the cold weather so I doubt it will be an issue when it's warm.
The top vent opens and closes via a rubberized slider button on top, just to the rear of the peak. The air flows into the helmet through channels in the liner. The ventilation is about average for a flip-up helmet; that is, some air flows in but not an exceptional amount. There are no rear exhaust vents in the Tourmax for some reason, which may limit the amount of air drawn through the helmet.
Nevertheless, at least in cold weather riding, the ventilation is acceptable.
Opinionator: Caberg Tourmax Ventilation
Location | Poor | Below Average | Average | Above Average | Outstanding |
Top/Upper | ■ | ||||
Chin/Face | ■ |
Score: We'll give the ventilation system of the Caberg Tourmax a "Very Good" rating.
Yet another surprise is the low noise levels I have experienced when wearing the Tourmax. I thought maybe the peak or flip-up parts would add some noise, but overall, the helmet is relatively quiet around the top and sides.
There is some noise that comes from the wind moving around the bottom part of the helmet below and behind my ears, but this is probably due to the slight mis-match between my head shape and the internal shape of the helmet. Also, this should be helped by the increased cheek pad thickness on the production helmets.
The peak has good aerodynamics with minimal buffeting or turbulence, so no problems to report there either. But, as with any dual-sport or off-road helmet with a peak, you probably won't want to ride at high speeds for very long. It's just the nature of the design.
Overall, I rate the Tourmax as quieter than expected, with very good noise control.
Opinionator: Caberg Tourmax Noise Levels
Location | Very Quiet | Quieter | Average | Louder | Very Loud |
Upper | ■ | ||||
Lower | ■ |
Note that our helmet evaluations are normally a combined effort of several riders over time, on different types of motorcycles with and without windscreens. Evaluators wear correctly fitted, high quality earplugs (even when evaluating motorcycle intercom systems) and (usually) a helmet liner. It is strongly recommended that hearing protection is used when riding a motorcycle. See the wBW Earplugs and Hearing Protection page for more information on choosing and wearing earplugs.
Note also that perceived noise levels will vary, depending on the individual. Noise can be caused by many factors, including helmet fit; the type of motorcycle and windscreen; wind speed and direction and even the type of clothing that is being worn. For more information on helmet noise, visit the wBW Motorcycle Helmet Noise page.
Score: We'll give the Caberg Tourmax an "Excellent" rating for better than average noise control for this type of helmet.
This Tourmax in size large weighs 1775 grams, which actually is a good figure, all things considered. In fact, we were surprised that it didn't weigh a lot more. Flip-up helmets generally weigh more and then the additional peak and the internal sun visor could have added another 100 grams, but Caberg has done a very good job at keeping the weight reasonable.
Looking at some other helmets on the webBikeWorld Motorcycle Helmet Weights chart, the Caberg Sintesi 2 (review) flip-up in size large weights nearly the same at 1772 grams. The HJC Sy-Max III (review) flip-up in size L weights 1778 grams and the Nolan N90 (review) flip-up in size large is 1784 grams. The AFX FX-39 DS (review) is a true dual-sport helmet (size L) and weighs 1784 grams, so you can see that the Caberg Tourmax weight is very reasonable.
Note that all of the helmets reviewed on webBikeWorld have been weighed and the weights are available on the wBW Motorcycle Helmet Weights page, along with a chart that lists the helmets by weight and shape on the wBW Motorcycle Helmet Shapes page.
Score: We'll give the Caberg Tourmax an "Outstanding" rating for its relatively low weight and excellent fit and balance.
The Tourmax has a quick release chin strap retainer and the chin strap padding is comfortable and extra-long. We're waiting for confirmation on the shell sizes.
The Tourmax meets the ECE 22.05 safety standards as a P and J helmet only.
Overall Opinionator: Caberg Tourmax
...and Pans
The Caberg Tourmax is one of the most unique helmet designs we've seen. But there are no real compromises and the helmet works well as both a flip-up and dual-sport, with good looks and useful features.
It feels like a normal flip-up...and it also feels like a dual-sport helmet. Add the other features like the internal sun visor and excellent visibility, along with good looks, and we think that Caberg will have no problem selling these by the boatload when the helmets hit the dealers' shelves in February 2014.

From "H.S." (February 2014): "I bought the Caberg Duke mainly based on your reviews which were spot on for the strengths and weaknesses of the helmet. An excellent helmet for the price (especially considering the 5-star from Sharp). Improved upper ventilation and lower noise abatement would make it near perfect.
Is it me, or is the Caberg Tourmax just a Duke with a dual-sport peak attached? Profiles and vents (and lack thereof) look the same. Your noise ratings and fit are the only things that makes me think they might be different helmets.
Perhaps Caberg upgraded some of their internal padding to compensate for the noise on the Duke. That could account for the changed the overall fit from slightly round/neutral on the Duke to slightly narrow/neutral on the Tourmax. Just curious if a comparison crossed your minds.
P.S. I agree the style and prices for Caberg and Roof would make a killing here in the States. I never understood the import problems for non-DOT helmets if there isn't a nation-wide Federal requirement to wear helmets."
Editor's Reply: No doubt there's a lot of Duke DNA in the Tourmax. Regarding the import issue, it's not importing or meeting the DOT standard -- that's the easy part. In the U.S., it's the distribution, retail and support issues that are very difficult to overcome.

I wish I had written down more of her recipes.)Loved your post Lovella..I did the same thing, I stayed home, took care of the children, cooked and cleaned and never thought anything about it. I've always been glad that I could. My Mom didn't allow me to make anything with yeast so I learned the hard way after I was married...oh my the first buns I ever baked were only edible warm from the oven..we could have played hardball with them later...hehe. Oh yeah and wareneki, those also took a few tries to get them right.
ReplyDeleteOh silly me...why did I not think of this. My family favorite...even the main item at the reunion. Nice...did you post on MGCC? I have waiting for someone to do so. Hey..have any leftovers? I'll be over for them. We all know they taste even better the second day around...pan fried (mom would do so in bacon drippings). Yum...okay. I'll be there in a flash.!
ReplyDeleteWell I might have guessed if you said V and i. Who am I kidding I so thought it was something to do with a car or truck renovation. We spell it with a v and pronounce it vareniki. You have got my mouth watering. I'm so happy I'll be around for the making of the vareniki this year with my family for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI can say it...I can spell it...I can eat it...but I'm not sure I can cook it! I've never tried making wareneki...always left that to my MIL who made the best. She kept my freezer stocked...and Heidi and I would cook up a few plum perogies to have for a snack on occasion (with Roger's golden syrup...yum). I might have to check out the recipe...wouldn't my daughter be surprised if I showed up with plum perogies again one day?

My mother never cooked Mennonite food, although my grandmother did sometimes - so it was always a treat to eat at her place when she did. Yours look so delicious - can't even compare to the watery or pasty commercial ones out there.
Lori T Oh.. the old saying .."The way to a man's heart is through his stomach" is as true today as it ever was !! I still tease Vic when he is all happy at meal time!
Just one clarification ... The German W is named (vigh - as in might) hence the German W sounds like our English V.
I'm going to try your Wareneki recipe !!This advise is more precious than diamonds! I never figured it out until a few years into our marriage. I always thought I was in competition with my mother-in-law and to alieviate that, I avoided all the recipes that she used. That way she was always special. It sort of worked, Ray still put on weight, but I think she may have taken it more of a compliment if I had asked for her assistance, and used her recipes. Oh well, we each eventually find our own way of smoothing out all the waters, and keeping out men happy! :)
ReplyDeletei SO agree with your advice. the tastes down here in southern california are nothing like the ones i grew up with, so i've had to ask for a lot of josh's favourite recipes from my mil and other friends. i also discovered a few new ones on my own and my hubby now claims i'm a great cook! (i don't think he'd claim i'm the BEST cook, he's got to leave that to his own mother!) oh, your picture of wareneki made my mouth water. my mom used to make some with sour cherries, those were my favourite!
ReplyDeleteStay home and cook...ah, those were great years, with home baked bread daily, veggies from the garden, and I never made anything twice...too many recipes to try or invent.
Tonight we went out for dinner again. It was fun, but I am wistful for the opportunity to settle in and make a great pot of soup and home made bread again. Espeically with the fall colors beginning around here. It will happen...soon. And I'm thinking I might give Wareneki a while.isn't it fun when they walk in the door....and say, "honey, I'm ho.........Oh, BOY am I home!!! then grin from ear to ear and say... "lasagna"?....or .... "lemon chicken"? ..... or whatever their experienced nose tells them..... I love it.... wish I had been able to stay home all of my life. I never wanted to go out to work...
