Hunting on property managed by the Corps of Engineers for the operation of Lake Barkley has become a tradition and is a favorite pastime for many people. The majority of these public properties consist only of a narrow strip of land surrounding the lakes edge. These narrow fringes of public land are not always suitable for hunting. However there are scattered blocks of public land that can accommodate hunting for large game like deer and turkey. Numerous smaller areas are better suited for hunting rabbits and squirrels. In order to locate these areas and determine the best location for your sport, contact the Lake Barkley Resource Manager's Office and speak with a Park Ranger.
Hunting licenses are required in both Kentucky and Tennessee and should be purchased for the state in which you will be enjoying these outdoor activities. Special permits are required in both states for hunting deer, wild turkey and waterfowl. If you plan to hunt the Western Shoreline of Lake Barkley keep in mind that this is under the management of the USDA Forest Service. The Forest Service requires a special Hunter Use Permit in order to hunt on the Land Between The Lakes. Please check State laws for complete information. Hunting licenses may be purchased over the counter at Bait Stores, Gas Stations, Marinas and Department Stores, which sell sporting goods.
Special hunting regulations apply for the Bear Creek Wildlife Management Area in Tennessee. If you are interested in hunting the Bear Creek Area you should contact the Ranger's Office at Dover TN, at (931) 232-7724 for detailed information.

In order to place a duck blind on Lake Barkley for the duration of the waterfowl season a permit may be obtained through a drawing process. Lake Barkley holds its Annual Duck Blind Drawing on the third Monday of September each year. The drawing is held at the shelter below Barkley Dam beginning promptly at 8 a.m. central time. All State and Federal licenses and Waterfowl stamps are required and should be purchased prior to the drawing in order to participate.

Real tube reverb in a portable combo.
The Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC 20W 1x12" tube-driven combo takes all the tone and punch of the JCA20H head, adds real tube reverb and pairs it all with a single 12" Jet City Eminence speaker rated at 100W RMS.
It features a single channel with three-band EQ, gain, presence, reverb and volume controls to tweak the amp's rich tone to your liking. And around the back lies stereo and mono speaker outputs and the tube complement of three 12AX7s (preamp), two 12AX7s (reverb) and two EL84s (power amp).

Comments about Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC 20W Tube Guitar Combo Amp:
After figuring out the nuances of the knobs I was able to get a very good sound. It's the best amp I own out of over 25. I was looking for a replacement for my Epiphone Blues Custom that just wouldn't turn on one day in less than 6 months of use. Hopefully this will last much longer. It has a very good gain section, which the Epiphone did not. I finally found my amp! Now when I go to jam I can compete with the mix AND hear myself.

Comments about Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC 20W Tube Guitar Combo Amp:
This is a good affordable tube amp. This amp will not quite produce as nice of a tone as my friend's Crate Voodoo 50. He has an American Tele and plays through a cab with two 12's in it. I am playing a Gretsch Special Jet. I sold my Fender 212R and the Jet City is far superior to the Fender solid state and weighs about 13 pounds less. I get plenty of volume from the Jet City 20 watt. I have only had the amp for two weeks but have been very pleased. It sounds great with my Gretsch and it produces a really nice semi-clean sound that is what I wanted. I play a wide variety of songs for mostly older people and the tone is excellent for my diverse style. I like the fact that I can set it and forget it. It was easy to get nice tones with just the few knobs on the amp and adjusting my guitars controls.
This is the best amp for me right now. Best tube amp for the money!
No cons, but it is fairly heavy. You could say well constructed.

Comments about Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC 20W Tube Guitar Combo Amp:
This amp was a replacement because the first one was having issues with the volume.When this exchange amp arrived, the power chord and the manual was missing.It took Musicians Friend 2 weeks to send the power chord after I was told that I would have it a couple days.I was also instructed to down load the manual from a web site that Musician Friend provided in a response email.After the power chord finally arrived I was able use the amp and check it for any problems.So far none have occurred.This amp is limited when it comes to wanting a clean sound with some volume.It's more of a metal amp than a clean sounding jazz,blues of R&B amp.I will only use this amp for practice and not for gigs.

Comments about Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC 20W Tube Guitar Combo Amp:
Simply put, this amp is fantastic. Sturdy (heavy!), affordable, and best of all it sounds great! I've owned this amp for about a month now, but I've already put it through over 20 gigs and a number of practices. It just keeps sounding better as the speaker gets broken in, and the tone is awesome- running from smooth and warm to fairly high-gain distortion.
Here's what I like:
-super easy to dial in a bunch of tones.
-LOUD. lots of power in only 20 watts. And, because of the relatively low wattage, you can crank the bejeezus out of it in a small club and have enough volume while achieving maximum tone.
-sounds like the real deal, because it is- the Eminence speaker sings and the tube breakup is very musical and strong- not a lot of compression here- the crunch keeps driving hard no matter how much you crank it and the "presence" knob makes scooping or accentuating the mids easy.
Here's what might be a problem (but not really for me...)
-This isn't really a clean amp... it's not exactly high-gain, but cleans are a bit sterile on their own (to my ear) and have to be achieved by dialing the preamp gain WAY back and cranking the volume. Throw a compressor on there and it works fine, but the amp is more suited to the overdriven sound. But I like that, so it's all good.
-The Reverb is true, tube reverb and it sounds natural, but it's pretty subtle. If you're looking for a long decay, groovy surf type thing, you should use a pedal also. For me, it's not a big deal... I keep the verb at about 12:00 for most stuff and if I want to get crazy I use my delay and/or my reverb pedal.
Overall, I love this amp and I'd buy another one in a heartbeat. My pedal board is a MXR MicroAmp -- East River Drive (ts808 copy) -- Compressor -- analog Delay and along with the JC2112 that's all I need to get pretty much every kind of tone I need, from garage/grunge to Country to Stoner Rock. BUY this amp.

West County Radiological Group, Inc.
Welcome to West County Radiological Group (WCRG), the area's imaging experts. Since 1969 we have been serving Saint Louis County and the surrounding area through our partnership with St. John's Mercy Medical Center in St. Louis and St. John's Mercy Hospital in Washington, Missouri; as well as their affiliated imaging centers. We are the largest private radiology practice in the area with 34 physicians. We provide our patients with radiology services, nuclear medicine services and radiation oncology services. WCRG also has a fully staffed medical physics group serving a variety of facilities throughout the State of Missouri.
All of our physicians are certified by the American Board of Radiology and belong to the American College of Radiology (ACR). The group has more fellowship-trained subspecialists than any other institution in the area, with the exception of a local teaching hospital. Many of our physicians have served and are currently serving in executive leadership roles in state and local medical organizations in an effort to preserve the quality of healthcare.
West County Radiological Group is a hospital-based radiology group. The radiologists do not own any imaging centers or imaging equipment. Therefore, we have no conflicts of interest that would encourage us to suggest any unnecessary follow up studies. We treat our patients just like we would like to be treated; with courtesy, respect, and understanding. Our goal is to get results to the referring physicians within a matter of hours if a routine study is ordered, and within minutes if the situation is more critical. We work with our hospitals to ensure that these studies reach the referring physicians' offices promptly.
Please feel free to email us and let us know how we are doing. You are very important to us and we appreciate your feedback. We hope you enjoy our site and find it useful.

Our History
In 1963, Dr. Thomas Maher, MD was one of the first physicians in the group who received the contract to provide radiology services for the new St. John's Mercy Hospital, which was moving from Euclid and Parkview in the Forest Park area to the growing suburbs of West St. Louis County. Radiology was still in its infancy then. Procedures were done using plain radiography and ultrasound.In 1969, Dr. Maher incorporated West County Radiological Group, Inc.
With the addition of new modalities (CT scans and MRI scans), the group began to grow. Although it started out as a group of general diagnostic radiologists, WCRG soon became a group of general radiologists with subspecialty training. Over the years, West County Radiology incorporated Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Oncology and Medical Physics into the group. Imaging was, and still is, constantly changing. In 2006, the group started doing their own professional billing and in 2010 started offering these services to other radiation oncology and radiology practices.
Today, only one thing is certain, and that is "change is on the way". We aren't sure how it will effect us, but we certainly hope to continue the long tradition of providing quality services for our patients and referring physicians; and we certainly hope that we will all remain together for many more years to come.

Brienne chapters....snoozefest

Plus, she meets some interesting characters.
Posted 25 June 2012 - 05:43 PM
I'll side with the not-impressed-with-Brienne-POV camp. For me, Brienne is one of my least favorite characters, for a variety of reasons. I find her POV chapters to be much of the same, with parts of her last 2-3 chapters being worthwhile. She comes across a few interesting characters, but I did not like Nimble Dick.
Posted 25 June 2012 - 11:56 PM
Posted 26 June 2012 - 12:36 AM
I usually don't like to 'ship' characters, but I must say, with Jaime's change of heart and who Brienne is, they could make for an interesting couple.
Posted 26 June 2012 - 01:03 AM
I felt a bit frustrated, reading her chapters, knowing she is going in the wrong direction most of the time. Other than that, I must disagree with the OP and say that her chapters were much more interesting to read than the Iron Island chapters.
I usually don't like to 'ship' characters, but I must say, with Jaime's change of heart and who Brienne is, they could make for an interesting couple.
haha interesting. I actually really enjoyed the iron islands chapters, although most of what I've been through is up to the kingsmoot so I don't know if it stays good.
I don't know folks, most of you seem to disagree with me save for my good pal ckal. I guess I'll approach the next few chapters with a more open mind perhaps?
Posted 26 June 2012 - 02:37 AM
The Brienne storyline is one of the best in the entire series because nothing of great consequence to the realm happens. You've spent thousands and thousands of pages with Kings and Hands, high lords and ladies, gifted killers and powerful magicians, figures of prophecy and doom. Brienne is a reminder that history keeps happening to the nobodies, too. Every place she goes there are families that have suffered as badly as the Starks, but nobody in that world or in ours spends hours talking about the peasant equivalents of the Red Wedding.
God those are some boring ass chapters! Does something eventually happen or does she just keep describing her travels where nothing happens?
I didn't find her chapters exciting or fun to read either. But their presence enriches the whole narrative with deep human feeling, especially once she meets Meribald.
Posted 26 June 2012 - 04:35 AM
Unsure if her chapters are boring, I was relieved to read something different than Jaime and Cersei throughout the book... I find her more pleasant to read than Cersei, definitely
Posted 27 June 2012 - 12:01 PM
What is this magic word that last escapes her lips? I was most intrigued. Made all the rest of her chapters bearable.
After reading some of your insights, I definitely concur that Sandor is the monk in the graveyard. But why would he stay there? He's a major killing machine. He doesn't dig graves, he keeps gravediggers digging graves. Just ride off on Stranger to find your true love Sansa. Oh, that's right there is no Sansa anymore, just Alayne. OK, then off to wreak some havoc amongst the thieves and thugs of Westeros. The vulture of death.
Yes, as sappy as it may seem, Jaime & Brienne together would be a hoot. It plays to Jaime's transformation: dashing knight of the Kingsguard willing to push an innocent boy out a window for the beautiful heartless woman he loves to maimed knight of the Kingsguard willing to rescue an ugly woman full of heart. Imagine Jaime taking Brienne's virginity - maybe not such a good image. Hope you're not eating when you read this. Sorry.
Posted 01 July 2012 - 08:28 PM
I could see someone not enjoying the Brienne chapters if they weren't fans of the character, but you can't deny that GRRM has used her to show the horrible consequences of the war on the people.

On another thread someone had mentioned that Brienne's chapters aren't really about her, but rather about who she meets. I think taking that together with what Liabe Brave and Dickon Fyre said above gives some good perspective. I gotta say though I was happy when Pod showed up, maybe he'll help make her chapters a little more bearable.

Yesterday was the feast of the big bird, and the only correct way to top off a Thanksgiving dinner is with a homemade apple pie (with homemade crust of course).
The first thing you need to do is make this delicious pie crust. (Recipe from http://www.simplyrecipes.com)
Ingredients for Pie Crust
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 4-8 tbsp ice water
Directions for Pie Crust
- Combine flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor (or a hand held mixer works as well) and pulse to mix.
- Add butter pieces and pulse 6-8 times until mixture resembles coarse meal with pea size pieces of butter.
- Add ice water 1 tbsp at a time, pulsing until mixture just begins to clump together
- If you pinch the dough together and it holds, it's ready. If not, add more water until it does.
- Gently shape the dough into 2 discs
- Knead it enough to form the discs, don't over-knead–you should be able to see little chunks of butter in the dough
- Wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour
- Remove from fridge and spread flour onto cutting board and rolling pin and roll the dough out wide enough to cover the pie dish.
Next, make your filling for the apple pie. I got this recipe from Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook.
Ingredients for Apple Pie
- Pie crust
- 6 cups peeled and sliced apples
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
Directions for Apple Pie
- Line prepared crust in a 9 inch pie plate
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add apple slices and gently toss until coated
- Transfer apple mixture to pastry-lined pie plate. Trim pastry to edge of pie plate. Cut slits in remaining pastry, place on filling and seal. Crimp edges as desired.
- To prevent overbrowning, cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in oven at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 25-30 minutes more or until the top is golden brown.
My mom had this extravagant apple slicer/peeler ma bob, so we used that to slice up some of our apples, but really, it's just as easy doing it by hand.
And don't forget to eat a few of these sugar-coated apples before you bake them. So good!
Enjoy your apple pie. After this, you'll never buy one from the store again ;)

LAS VEGAS (AP) — What's a hulking vampire to do without moody mortals in distress and with no more computer-enhanced battles to wage in the forest?
RELATED: See what your favorite celebs are up to this week
For 28-year-old "Twilight" actor Kellan Lutz — better known as Emmett, the heartthrob brother of leading man Edward — it's still about looking as good as superhumanly possible.
Lutz unveiled his Pre-Spring 2014 collection with Abbot + Main this week in Las Vegas during MAGIC, one of the fashion world's most influential trade shows.
"It's great to find something outside of acting," he said in an interview Monday at a Las Vegas Strip hotel suite, resting a chiseled, stubbly chin on a sofa pillow.
Born in North Dakota and raised in Arizona and the Midwest — places he described as trendiness-challenged — he started modeling at 14 and developed an eye for style hanging out with fashion and photography greats.
Soon enough, he stopped borrowing clothes from some of his six brothers. They were borrowing from him.
His brand — which debuted in 2011 and is named after an intersection in the beachy-cool Venice Beach, Calif., neighborhood where Lutz once lived — mainly consists of soft, slim-fitting T-shirts and not-trying-too-hard hoodies.
RELATED: Sweet celeb PDA
Initially just for men, two-thirds of the collection is now for women. There's a peach-colored, long-sleeved sweater of translucent hacci fabric, and a draping tank top in matte gray. Meant for layering, prints and logos are nowhere to be foun
Lutz works with business partners mainly over Skype as he travels around the world filming. He's starring as the oft-shirtless Hercules in the upcoming "Hercules 3D." After MAGIC, he'll be headed to Bulgaria to shoot "The Expendables 3," an action thriller that's set to include Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and things blowing up.
Stephenie Meyer, author of the books that led to the movie series that grossed $1.4 billion in U.S. box office receipts, told "Variety" last week that she's done with the fantastical world of glittery-skinned, bloodthirsty knockouts.
"I get further away every day," Meyer's quoted as saying. "I am so over it. For me, it's not a happy place to be."
But the small supporting role that carved him a place in the acting world — and in many a teen girl's heart — looms large for Lutz.
"I'm so thankful for everything that movie's done for me," he said. "'Twilight' gave me a name."

Ladies Win UKC Hunting Beagle National, plus Herding Dog Entries
The Herding Group is comprised of some of the dog world's most beautiful working breeds, from the colorful Australian Shepherd to the rather glamorous Shetland Sheepdog. So why isn't this collection of sheep and cattle dogs doing better in inter-group competition? Find out what Blogger-in-Chief Billy Wheeler has to say about the shortage of Herding dog entries.
Many of this year's top show dogs are featured in their own beautiful mini-websites on Best In Show Daily. Simply click on a banner ad to see the dog's up-to-date show history, plus a slide show of photos that reveals exactly why it's a top dog.
Dan Sayers
Editor in Chief
Hunting Beagle enthusiasts returned to Cochocton, Ohio, in April for the fourth year to compete in and attend the United Kennel Club Hunting Beagle Nationals. Little did they know they'd be witnesses to a little bit of history too.
At the end of three days of hunting in the area of the friendly town of 12,000, two females stepped forward to receive the National Grand Hunting Beagle Champion trophy for the first time: Hunting Beagle GCh. Hurry Up Lucille, owned by Vicky Bassitt of Millersburg, Ohio. Under her son Brad's handling, Lucille tallied up a score of 632.5+ to earn the coveted title. It's the first time a dog, owned solely by a woman, has won the event in its 22-year history. more
This has been a year of contrasts in the show ring. On one hand we have the Top Five Dogs All Breeds that have racked up incredible numbers. On the other hand we have 63 of our Top 100 with two or fewer BIS to their credit. Last year we had two Sporting dogs atop our rankings. This year has seen our Working dogs occupy seven of the Top 20 spots. more

An interesting snippet from the Hyannis Youth & Community Center presentation this week was that the space would not be appropriate as an entertainment or performance facility. That's not unexpected, but the town's consultant working out the programming details on the center said he was convinced that Cape Cod, and Barnstable in particular, could support a 5,0000-seat performance center.
In light of the discussions between the Boch Center, Cape Cod Conservatory and the town of Barnstable, this is good news.
Barnstable's downtown revitalizers have long thought a performance center could be an important feature in making Hyannis a vital destination for residents and visitors alike.
That observation is not likely to have gone unnoticed in town hall, nor should it.
Barnstable's next superintendent is now officially signed on at $161,5000 in annual salary, plus another $10,000 annual annuity contribution, a traditional add-on for Barnstable's supers.
We begrudge no one their pay and will await Patricia Grenier's time in office before saying it is either too much, or too little. We hope for the latter.
At that level, Grenier will be the highest salaried employee in the Town of Barnstable, above the chief of police (now #2), and the town manager, a distant third.
There was a time when the pay-off for public sector work came at the tail-end of a career spent toiling at the low- end of the wage scale. The benefit of job security and an adequate pension were the trades offs for higher-paying, higher-risk private sector work.
That concept is likely lost forever to history's dust bin, at least for the upper-echelon positions within municipal administrations. Competitive wages are needed to hire the best and brightest, or so the argument goes. There's some truth and necessity in that, but has it gone too far?
That's a decision that people will have to weigh and make for themselves.
Again, we don't begrudge anyone their pay and we also know that there are plenty of line workers making what is hoped to be a comfortable wage doing the often thankless work of government.
Lt. Governor Kerry Healey was due in Barnstable today, flanked by Cape legislators to announce a feasibility study for Exit 6 1/2.
This project has been talked about for at least four decades and any number of concepts have been forwarded, only to be rejected or shelved.
If this study comes to pass, it should be done with a commitment to actually do something with it one way or another when it's completed.
Healey's boss was able to push the Sagamore Flyover from stop to go in relatively short order. Perhaps Healey, with the supportive assistance of willing legislators and land owners, can do the same here.
Whether the weather will wither or whisper was a wonder all week. It started with a snowy nor'easter, moved into a melting spring through the hump and looks to end in ice. As ever, it gave us all plenty to talk about.

Gambling/lottery winnings are subject to Michigan income tax to the extent that they are included in your federal adjusted gross income. The Michigan Income Tax Act has no provision to subtract your losses on the Michigan income tax return. Also, you cannot net the winnings and losses.
Note: You may exclude the first $300 won from gambling, bingo, awards or prizes from total household resources/household income. Anything over $300 must be included in total household resources/household income. Include gambling/lottery winnings on the line for "Alimony and other taxable income" on the MI-1040CR, MI-1040CR-2, or MI-1040CR-7.

Now, the first look at the House of Ideas' next major superhero shift—called Marvel Now!— comes via Entertainment Weekly. Artwork by Marvel exec Joe Quesada shows major players who'll be showing up in the initiative's first wave of books, including a younger version of Jean Grey floating alongside a mix of X-Men and Avengers characters.
Marvel Now! will be launching new titles every week, with a weekly Avengers book by Jonathan Hickman, a time-traveling X-Men book by Brian Michael Bendis and Uncanny Avengers—which brings together mutant and human superheroes—written by Rick Remender and drawn by John Cassaday.
The fact that's this move isn't a wholesale reboot makes it more interesting to me since it won't invalidate stories that came before and hopefully won't leave as many open questions as has happened with DC's New 52. I'm not buying very many current Marvel titles right now but the idea of some of the publisher's best talents working on new configurations might get me to check some of these titles out.

If there were any lingering doubts as to who the best team in Division I is, Virginia emphatically put them to rest today in College Park. UVA netted their first goal only 15 seconds into the game and never looked back as the 'Hoos completely dominated Maryland on route to a 15-5 shellacking in Byrd Stadium. Any momentum the Terps might have grasped was denied by Kip Turner who had an incredible 15 save performance, including eight in the first quarter to keep the Terps from getting things going.
The Cavaliers' athleticism was on display all over the field. Offensively, they had little trouble drawing double teams and then moving the ball to find the open man. Defensively, the very active unit swallowed up Maryland's big four, holding the combination of Walters, X. Ritz, McGlone, and Healy to five points between them. However, between the lines was where the real damage was done, as Virginia was lethal when pushing transition opportunities and rode the Terps aggressively throughout the game. Maryland was completely inept in handling the full field pressure and repeatedly turned the ball over in the clearing game.
After winning the opening faceoff, Virginia wasted no time getting the ball upfield. Kyle Dixon found Drew Thompson open near the restraining line, and Thompson stepped in for a sick time and room shot into the upper right corner. A minute later, following a sloppy pseudo-possession by the Terps, Virginia netted their second when Matt Poskay scored on an unassisted goal. Virginia scored three more unanswered goals [Ben Rubeor, Danny Gladding, Rubeor] before Maryland got on the board when Max Ritz found his brother Xander. After one quarter of play, UVA was up 5-1.
The second quarter was all Virginia as they scored all four goals of the period. Gladding netted his second on a nice solo effort, followed shortly with Thompson scoring his second. Rubeor completed a first half hat-trick when Gladding found him on man-up and Matt Ward finished the first half scoring. The teams broke for the half with Maryland trailing 9-1.
Having been completely dominated in the first half, Maryland needed to get something going early in the second half to get back in the game. Virginia had other plans. Within 41 seconds, UVA had rattled of two quick goals and basically closed the book on Maryland's chances. Thompson found Poskay for the first one, and do-it-all midi JJ Morrissey followed 20 seconds later. UVA scored two more unanswered goals to complete an 8-0 run from early in the second quarter until midway through the third, and had a 13-1 lead with 20 minutes remaining. The reserves for both clubs began to see the field at this point and Maryland outscored UVA 4-2 over the final 20 minutes.
Virginia is now 10-0, and except a tight game with Princeton, no one has come within five goals of them this year. They aren't just beating teams – they are burying them, and have clearly demonstrated the killer instinct to put teams away instead of letting them hang around. If they continue to play like this, it'd be hard to imagine anyone else hoisting the championship trophy come Memorial Day.

COLUMBIA - The Missouri Board of Education will interview four candidates for superintendent of Columbia Public Schools over the next week.
Columbia Public Schools Board President Christine King alerted CPS employees Friday that the Board of Education had chosen four finalists from 18 applicants. The names of the candidates have not been announced.
"We expect that the high caliber of candidates will make the decision difficult for the Board, which is the best possible position for CPS," Board President Christine King said in an email.
The previous superintendent, Chris Belcher, announced last month that he is resigning, effective June 30.

Cake Challenge #6 - Lime and Cream Cheese Cake
Okay - so granted, this cake isn't exactly the prettiest of cakes to look at ... but OMG! It tastes divine. Seriously. After making the cheesecake last week I had some left over cream cheese and when I discovered this recipe I decided it was worth a try.
It really was worth a try and this is going to become a firm favourite.
The recipe is taken from the latest Great British Bake Off cook book "Everyday" - definately go out and purchase this book if you like baking there are so many great recipes in there.
Ingredient wise you need: 175g unsalted butter, 150g full fat cream cheese, zest of 2 limes, 250g caster sugar, 3 eggs, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 225g self raising flour.
Oven should be set at gas 4/180c/250f.
Start with putting the butter and cheese in a bowl with the lime zest and beat well. Add sugar and beat until fluffy. In another bowl crack eggs with vanilla and mix, then add into the butter mixture a little but at a time (mixing as you go). Finally add the flour and fold this in. Put into a loaf tin and bake for about 55 mins.
Then when this is baking and you've washed all your bowls up - you create a lime syrup which is basically made up of 4 tbls lime and 50g caster sugar. Bring this to the boil in a small pan and when the cake is out of the oven (and still hot) pour the syrup over.
Let the cake cool completely.
Finally the icing on top is 150g icing sugar, zest of 1 lime and 1tblsp lime juice. Mix together and pour over the top of the cake.
Oh My.
Heaven on a plate.

If you're a man suffering from a fever, lower back pain and frequent or painful urination, should you see a doctor? Probably, since those are the symptoms of a little-known but serious condition called prostatitis, which affects half of all men in the United States during their lifetime.
Prostatitis is the inflammation of the prostate gland. Different prostate disorders can have similar symptoms, but prostatitis is not an indicator of prostate cancer, the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among in developed countries.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common diseases affecting the prostate gland. BPH occurs when there is an increase in the number of the smaller glands and stroma of the prostate gland, which causes the prostate to become enlarged.BPH is a type of tumour that is benign or non-cancerous. It is the most common benign tumour in men, and it becomes much more common as men get older.
One study has shown that BPH is present in 20% of men aged 41-50 years, 50% of men aged 51-60 years, and over 90% of men older than 80 years , although the proportion of men with symptoms was much less.
BPH is not a life-threatening condition, but if left untreated for a prolonged period of time, it has the potential to cause problems with the function of the bladder, and less commonly, the kidneys.

|Tysen Stevens, a major offensive weapon, goes up hard for a deuce.
After a heartbreaking overtime loss on Dec. 19, the Dinos got right back to work and headed up north to take on Park City. This time it was the Dinos who would walk away victorious. They beat the Miners 46-40 on Friday night to finish up their pre-Christmas play.
Even though they played from behind at times, the Dinos edged out the Miners in the first quarter 12-11. But in an early nip and tuck affair, the Miners took the lead in the second by a single point as the teams headed into the locker room. Even though Carbon wasn't shooting particularly well, it was their defense that kept the game close and made sure they were not letting Park City put the game away early.
In the third the Miner's offense went cold as the Carbon defense stepped it up and limited the opposition to five. The adjustments the Dinos made in the locker room let them take over the tempo. The Dinos offense did not slow down and they were able to put up 14 points to retake the lead. With an eight point cushion going into the final quarter, the Dinos were able to hold on in another seesaw battle to finish it off with a six point victory.
Tyler Bean was the offensive leader with 12, half of his points coming via the long ball. Tysen Stevens followed with 11 points of his own. Jason Child hit three from beyond the arc for all of his nine points. Joey Keller and Eric Buchmiller were workhorses on the boards. Josh Spigarelli returned to the line up after an illness that had kept him sidelined most of the season.
After a brutal week previous that saw the Dinos lose by 20 or more in three consecutive games, Coach Bianco expressed considerable pride with the turn around his team was able to perform. "They really showed great effort in both of the games we had this week. It felt really good to win on someone else's floor." He went on to say, "They never quit playing. We got down in the first quarter and they battled right back. It was our defense that kept us in position to win. The defense has been our bright spot all year. In the past few year's our defensive effort tended to lag off, but these kids always play good defense and it showed in both the Wednesday game and the win on Friday."
Bianco went on to point out that everyone contributed to the win. The total team effort they are putting forth right now is the key to giving themselves a chance to win. Bianco knows this has been a tough pre-season run for the Dinos, but he is hoping the tough schedule they have taken on will prepare them for region play. Even the blow out losses to the toughest teams on their schedule has given them lessons to learn. The welcome Christmas break will give them plenty of time to process everything and get back to work on their next game.
The Dinos will resume action on Jan. 3 with a home game against Duchesne. There will only be a sophomore/junior varsity game starting at 5:15 p.m. with the varsity game at 7 p.m.. They will then head to Delta on Jan 9 to begin region play.

Cyber-financial fraud investigation nets numerous arrests in South Africa, Canada, US
Visit our DVIDS page for b-roll video of the operation.
PRETORIA, South Africa — Twenty individuals, including 11 in South Africa, were arrested Tuesday on charges stemming from cyber, mass-marketing fraud schemes. The arrests were made during a joint operation between U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), South African Police Service's Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (the Hawks), South Africa's Crime Intelligence, Interpol, the South Africa Tactical Response Team and the South Africa Department of Home Affairs – Immigration.
"This is the ramification of the collaboration between South African Police Service and U.S. Homeland Security Investigations," said the National Head of the Hawks, Lieutenant General Anwa Dramat. "If criminals are able to interact with their fellows across the borders, we can do it better."
"At HSI, we believe that by working with the South African government to dismantle these transnational mass marketing criminal organizations, we will collectively bring the perpetrators to justice and wherever possible, recoup the victims' losses," said HSI Pretoria Attaché Abraham Lugo. "Our collaboration with the South African Police Service, Interpol and other government agencies, will also increase public awareness of these crimes and hopefully will prevent people from falling victim to these schemes in the future."
The operation comes after HSI special agents followed a financial fraud scam to Pretoria, mainly Sunnyside.
The U.S. federal charges allege that a West African transnational organized crime enterprise was involved in numerous complex financial fraud schemes over the Internet. The mass marketing fraud includes romance scams, reshipping scams, fraudulent check scams, work-at-home scams, along with bank, financial and credit card account takeovers.
The investigation was initiated by HSI special agents in October 2011, after U.S. law enforcement was contacted by a female victim in Mississippi, who was victimised in a sweetheart scam. The victim received a suspicious package in the mail requesting her to reship the merchandise to an address in Pretoria, South Africa. The investigation later revealed that the merchandise was purchased using stolen personal identity information and fraudulent credit card information of persons in the United States. Investigators have so far identified hundreds of victims to this scam in the United States. This has resulted in the loss of millions of U.S. dollars.
"Financial crimes that threaten the health of our national economy and criminals who attempt to cheat law-abiding citizens out of their hard-earned money will continue to be a major investigative priority for HSI," said Special Agent in Charge of HSI New Orleans Raymond R. Parmer Jr. "This case illustrates HSI's practice of leveraging to the fullest extent possible domestic and international law enforcement partnerships in pursuit of justice."
Parmer oversees a five-state area of operations to include Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee.
This syndicate allegedly went for some years purchasing shipping labels from the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), Federal Express, United Parcel Service and DHL with fraudulent credit card information or stolen identities. Once the merchandise reached South Africa, the suspects advertised it for sale on the Internet.
The operation came after an eight-count federal indictment was filed in the United States charging 18 individuals with wire fraud, bank fraud, access device fraud, mail fraud, aggravated identity theft, theft of government funds and money laundering. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi was granted arrest warrants for 12 individuals residing in South Africa and search warrants for associated properties in Pretoria.
The suspects, 11 Nigerians and one South African woman, are linked to this global scam. The suspects allegedly enriched themselves with illegally obtained funds.
"Financial fraud is a danger to all Americans and a threat to everyone," said Southern District of Mississippi U.S. Attorney Gregory K. Davis. "This round-up is continuing and powerful evidence of our commitment in federal law enforcement to aggressively identify, investigate and prosecute those who, through violation of federal criminal laws, pose a threat to the financial security of our citizens, communities and financial institutions. It is also evidence of the cooperation and partnership that exists between federal law enforcement and their international partners. Our special thanks go out to the various federal and international officers who not only assisted in the arrests of these individuals, but contributed significantly to the investigation that led us to this prosecution."
During the operation, investigators seized computers, laptops, cell phones, notebooks and documents. The items will be surrendered to HSI for further investigation.
The suspects will appear in the Pretoria Magistrates' Court Wednesday on charges of fraud and theft, before they will be extradited to the United States to face prosecution in the Southern District of Mississippi. Other members of this transnational criminal enterprise were arrested in Canada, California, Georgia, Indiana, New York, South Carolina and Wisconsin.
The HSI investigation continues.
The arrests were the result of an investigation led by HSI Gulfport and HSI Pretoria offices in partnership with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, South African Police Service, Toronto Police, HSI Cyber Crimes Center, U.S. Treasury Executive Office of Asset Forfeiture, HSI Ontario, HSI Charleston and HSI Atlanta. The U.S. Department of Justice's Organized Crime Gang Section and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Georgia have filed related indictments in Charleston and Atlanta against five additional defendants.
The U.S. Department of Justice's Office of International Affairs assisted in the provisional arrest warrants for the 11 Nigerian citizens and one South African in Pretoria and one Nigerian citizen in Toronto, Canada. A Nigerian citizen was arrested in Indianapolis, and three Nigerians were arrested in Atlanta. The remaining seven are U.S. citizens.News Source : Cyber-financial fraud investigation nets numerous arrests in South Africa, Canada, US

I don't have any robot news today, so please delight yourself with this this collection of random weird stuff I made in the recent past.
There's a game of bubble bobble, asteroids, zombie readiness posters for your office, a con game, and a few other wierd things in there. Share with your friends, and let me know what you think in the comments!

If you had to add up all the things the Religious Right blames women for you would quickly run out of breath, but here are a selection of just four stories from the past month that have been particularly ridiculous.
1) "Welfare Moms" Are to Blame for Gun Violence
Rep. James Lankford (R-OK), fifth-ranking of House Republicans, during a meeting with constituents earlier this month, said that he agreed with an audience member that kids today being on psychotropic drugs were likely contributing to gun crimes, but maintained the true problem is greedy welfare moms trying to get more Social Security money:
Where are we on all those psychiatric drugs? We've overmedicated kids. Quite frankly some of the overmedication of kids are because welfare moms want to get additional benefits and if they can put them on SSI through maintenance drugs, they can also put them on Social Security disability and get a separate check. That is wrong on every single level. Not only is it fraudulent to the government, but it also tells a kid with great potential, "don't try because you're disabled."
2) Women Having Abortions Deprived the World of a HIV Cure
Matt Barber of the Liberty Counsel, a legal group determined to defend religious conservatives from reality, said this week on his radio program that it is very likely that HIV/AIDS would have been cured if women weren't having abortions:
Well, you know, there is probably a really good chance that whoever it was that was going to find the cure for AIDS … that person has already been slaughtered in the womb.
In other, less ridiculous news, we may be one step closer to an HIV cure.
3) "Awful Looking Women" To Blame for Marriage Decline, Men Drinking
This the wisdom of Christian Broadcasting Network chairman Pat Robertson speaking on the network's "The 700 Club."
Prompted by a story about a 17-year-old boy writing to Maxim magazine to ask how he could get his dad to pay more attention to his mom, Robertson declared:
A woman came to a preacher that I know, and she was awful looking. I mean, her hair was all torn up and she was overweight and looked terrible, clothes bad and everything. And she said, 'Oh, Reverend, what can I do? My husband has started to drink.' And the preacher looked at her and said, 'Madam, if I was married to you I'd start to drink too.' We need to cultivate romance, darling! … You always have to keep that spark of love alive. It just isn't something to just lie there, 'Well, I'm married to him so he's got to take me slatternly looking.' You've got to fix yourself up, look pretty.
Oh, sexism. Just charming.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, this isn't a first for the 82-year-old. In the past he's "joked" about wife-beating and has blamed women for when their men have a roving eye.
4) Guru: Indian Rape Victim Has Herself to Blame
A woman brutally raped on a moving bus in New Delhi on December 16 was to blame for the gang rape that ultimately cost her her life, this according to India's prominent Hindu leader guru Asaram Bapu.
The 71-year-old said in a video to his followers, "Those who were at fault [of the gang-rape] were drunk. Had she taken guru diksha and chanted the Saraswati Mantra, she would not have boarded any random bus after watching a movie with her boyfriend. Even if she did, she should have taken God's name and asked for mercy."
"She should have called them [her rapists] brothers, fallen at their feet and pleaded for mercy. Had she said, 'I am a weak woman, you are my brothers,' such brutality would not have happened."
He also called the gang-rape an "error" that God could have prevented if only the victim had prayed.
This is a sentiment the gang's lawyer also agreed with at trial, saying "respected" women don't get raped.
This case has prompted an Indian government panel to recommend robust changes in law enforcement procedures to help protect women from this kind of violence.

Wow, these are bad. These jackwagons make a good case for birth control, and more mental health services.
Beverly is right.
And the international war on women continues.
Asaram Bapu sounds like a real charmer. I'm used to hearing that sort of anti-woman comment from fanatical Muslims, but this is the first time I've heard it from a Hindu. Very disappointing.
Totally wasted my time reading any of this. . . .
The Blame Game.....what if we would accept responsibility for the state of affairs we have created?
Sad sick and demented. Outside of aberations like Palin you just don't hear women sounding like this, and certainly about men. And honey it's so easy to do.

Los Alamos, it's about that time.
Whether you're a hiker, biker, beer and wine enthusiast, or just a person who wants to get out of the house and enjoy the outdoors, Summerfest '08 has a little something for everybody.
The annual event, held at Pajarito Ski Mountain, will feature newly expanded biking trails, a live musical performance, lifts to hiking trails, and a beer wine garden sponsored by area brewers.
"As always, Summerfest ushers in the summer mountain biking season with live music, lift service and a great beer and wine fest," event spokesman Thad Hahn said.
Atomic City Transit will be offering a free shuttle service from Los Alamos to the Pajarito Ski Area to ensure that festival-goers enjoy themselves responsibly. The shuttle will depart from 9 a.m.-5:30 p.m. at Sullivan Field on the hour, and leave the ski area at every 30 minutes past the hour.
"We really encourage folks to use the service as a safe and convenient way to enjoy the fest," Hahn said.
This year's beer garden will feature the addition of two new area brewers, Turtle Mountain Brewing of Rio Rancho, and Marble Brewery of Albuquerque. Ten dollars will get you started with sample mug and taster tickets.

Heya guys! It's been a long run here on DA, but I have decided to move all of my art to Tumblr.
Hope to see you guys there!
|I want to have a Premium account! If I can get one, then I will use DA oooohhhhhhh so much!!!
Hello! I am Sam Red! What's up? The sky maybe? Just kidding, silly The sky is down! XD
Anyway, I have wanted to become a manga artist ever since I was 10 years old when a friend (who I swear to god was a prodigy for his age) taught me a small amount of the basics. Over the past 2 years of having a DeviantArt account, my art has really improved. Now, I wish to upload more of the stuff I have and get into more digital and traditional art.
Being in high school, I am setting my eyes to go to the School of Visual Arts or Parsons: The New School of Design for college as animation/cartooning/graphic design minors? I don't really know yet, but I can't wait!
Many of my friends say that I could really be a manga artist because I'm really good. However, I fear that my art might not be "enough" for employers and companies. There are a million other kids like me in the world. Plus there's art theft, illegal manga websites, etc. that I will have to deal with. I am a little nervous about becoming basically a starving artist for the rest of my life.
So for now, all I can do is practice and dream...
Have dreams of Nihon...

I have heard that a quality dressage saddle is supposed to work, also. I haven't tried it, just what I have heard. I went looking for a nice used dressage saddle.
ROFLMBO I can get a new gaited saddle fitted and finished for less than a quality used dressage saddle. But I honestly don't like most gaited saddles. They don't allow my back to sit comfortable.
So, I am looking for a nice used AP English saddle. I'll try it and see where it leads. Rascal is a narrow withered beasty with odd shoulders, so this ought to be fun LOL.
I really don't want to fork out a ton of money for a new saddle until I know he is going to remain sound under saddle. That will take time. Not to mention the fact whatever I buy now will, most likely, have to be replaced in 6 months when he gets more muscle.
*sigh* The joys of riding are costly.

So many good games were presented at E3 this year. I'm still actively collecting my thoughts on all the games and I'm in the process of at least posting the trailers for the ones worth checking out.
This years convention had a lot of games that impressed many fans, but I will say I was happy to see that Sam Fisher was back. If you don't know who Sam Fisher is, then perhaps the game Splinter Cell rings a bell. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell happens to be one of my favorite games, mainly due to the innovative system of stealth and ultra cool gadgets. Oh, can't forget the night vision goggles; Splinter Cell wouldn't be the same without the night vision goggles. They got rid of the night vision goggles in Splinter Cell: Conviction and opted for sonar goggles, but the developers realized fans disappointment and decided to bring back Sam's iconic night vision goggles in Blacklist.
In Splinter Cell:Blacklist, Fisher is thrown into the Iran/Iraq territory and is given the tediously dangerous task of tracking down a terrorist. It won't be easy finding Sam's target, but he's equipped with all the necessary skills and gadgets to get the job done. Remember mark & execute from the previous games? Well that system of advanced targeting is back and it looks better than ever!
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist won't be released until 2013, but the gameplay demo and trailer show a lot of promise for the sixth game in the Splinter Cell franchise.

From the drawers of the Top Secret Fyles on April Fools Day:
Perhaps we have FINALLY turned a corner weather wise.
After the immediate Watertown area has received no less than nine lake-effect and/or snowstorms and nine mornings of record-breaking cold temperatures over the same period, we all know brighter days and warmer temperatures are ahead with the arrival of the Major League Baseball season.
The traditional Opening Day was Monday, and it was a welcomed sight.
Daylight is getting significantly longer, temperatures are steadily climbing and the sun actually begins to feel warm on the body.
Baseball signifies renewal, hope and optimism for the coming months. The little kid returns to all of us, no matter what age we are.
Anticipation is high for a team to turn around a disappointing season from 2013, or maybe a club wants to go one step farther win the World Series.
Regardless of the goal, its full steam ahead.
Also, a baseball fans TV habits change. Now theres a point to get necessary tasks, or more precisely chores done before the start of a Yankees, Red Sox, Mets, etc. game. First pitch means everything.
Its an excellent reason to get excited, and a final reason to say goodbye to a harsh winter.
Heres my projected MLB final standings and postseason outlook:
AL EAST Red Sox; Rays; Orioles; Yankees; Blue Jays.
AL CENTRAL Tigers; Royals; White Sox; Indians; Twins.
AL WEST Rangers; Angels; As; Mariners; Astros.
NL EAST Nationals; Braves; Phillies; Mets; Marlins.
AL CENTRAL Cardinals; Pirates; Reds; Brewers; Cubs.
NL WEST Dodgers; Giants; Diamondbacks; Padres; Rockies.
ALCS Rangers over Tigers.
NLCS Dodgers over Cardinals.
WORLD SERIES Dodgers over Rangers.
Channel surfing: Time Warner Cable has added a station (digital tier channel 331) devoted to the Los Angeles Dodgers, similar to how YES covers the Yankees and SNY covers the Mets.
However, theres one important difference: The Dodgers cable games are blacked out, because of regional broadcast rights held by New York teams.
Dodgers cable games, previously broadcast by Prime Ticket for many years, can still be viewed on major networks, like ESPN and Fox, and on TWCs Extra Innings package.
n Florida is a 6-point favorite over Connecticut and Kentucky is a 2-point favorite over Wisconsin in Saturdays pair of NCAA Final Four basketball games at Arlington, Texas.
However, the Huskies could pull off a surprise. They handed the Gators their last loss, and the formula of tenacious D, accurate foul shooting and the leadership of Shabazz Napier cant be dismissed.

"She is the perfect journalist to be our leading voice on global fashion."
When fashion critic Suzy Menkes left her post at the International New York Times after 26 years, she also left behind a very big pair of shoes. WWD has now announced that Financial Times fashion editor Vanessa Friedman will be the one stepping in to fill them as fashion director and chief fashion critic.
Friedman has been the London-based FT fashion editor since the role was created in 2003. Previously, she was the features and fashion director at UK InStyle and a contributor to The Economist, The New Yorker, Vogue and Entertainment Weekly.
"I'm thrilled to welcome Vanessa to the Times," Times executive Jill Abramson said in a statement. "She is the perfect journalist to be our leading voice on global fashion." Friedman will take up her position next month.
Menkes, meanwhile, is heading over to Condé Nast International where she will serve as a reporter and critic for all of the international Vogue websites as International Vogue Editor. About a month earlier, the paper's chief fashion critic of 15 years, Cathy Horyn, announced her own resignation. And in October 2013, Horyn's reviewing partner, Eric Wilson, left to become the fashion news director at InStyle.
Also rumored as being eyed up for the role were Style.com's Nicole Phelps and WWD's own Bridget Foley, so don't be too bummed out that your application wasn't successful.
Thanks so much to everyone for their good wishes on my new post at @nytimes. I am very excited!
