Deus Ex: The Missing Link DLC preview
Late in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, protagonist Adam Jensen goes dark, leaving the player to wonder what happened to the gritty-voiced hero. Eidos Montreal's upcoming DLC for the game, The Missing Link, looks to fill in the blanks, as it takes place during that missing fragment of Jensen's life.
According to Eidos Montreal game designer Antoine Thisdale, The Missing Link will last for up to five hours. (Of course, the content's length is based on your play style and skill level.) My preview of the content showed off about half of what the full expansion is supposed to offer.
Eidos Montreal is touting a graphical update for this content and, for the most part, it shows. Lighting is darker and moodier. Enemies and Jensen himself look sharper. The DLC features brand new environments; however, players will recognize a lot of the world's objects, gun models, and more.
The entire expansion takes place on a cargo ship, transporting the umbrella group of a private military contractor (name withheld for possible spoilers) to a secret facility. The episode opens with Jensen being interrogated by a pair of merc leaders asking who he is and who he works for.
Jensen is stripped of his augmentations, armor, and weapons. He's beaten and bloody but still manages to sneak in some sarcasm, asking the leader where he can file a complaint about the luxury cruise. When he's left alone, his restraints suspiciously pop open and Jensen makes his way through the ship.
The entire opening forces players to play with stealth in mind. Jensen is powerless, save for the ability to knock out opponents using what little energy he has left. Your first task is to find your gear and discover where you are, while attempting to reestablish contact with your friends at Sarif Industries.
Eventually I made my way outside of the ship where harsh rain was crashing onto the vessel. Gorgeous waves rock the boat from side-to-side. Metal grate walkways line the outside of the ship, forcing players to consider the amount of sound and visibility they can play with while exploring.
The progress and augmentation decisions you've made during the retail title do not apply here. Instead, you come across a case of Piraxis points, giving you an opportunity to outfit Jensen specifically for this situation. Because areas are so tight and patrols are so abundant, I decided to use my points to reduce my movement noise and activate enemy vision cones--two things I didn't bother considering in the main game.
The content is paced very well. There's a moment where a loud crashing noise is heard and felt below deck and players have the option to investigate, this is the content's way of offering sidequests. There's also plenty of hidden goodies all around the ship in areas that you really have no reason for exploring, which I love. It rewards you in the same way the main game does.
The DLC preview ended just after Jensen's mysterious new friend helped him out of a bind with a body scanner, which detected the protagonist as an intruder. Thisdale tells me that playing the content will not spoil the events of the main game, if you decide to skip ahead to it without finishing Human Revolution. It will add more depth to the greater conspiracy surrounding Jensen's quest, he told me.
There's no firm release for Deus Ex: Human Revolution 'The Missing Link,' however, we know it will come to the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and via OnLive in October. Though the Mac version is coming soon, the DLC will not be available when it launches.
So far, it looks to be a good addition to the game, and we hope Eidos Montreal has plans for more content in the future.

Parents have been able to obtain their children's scores this month by calling or visiting their child's school.
This week, education department employees will be available at "log on and learn" sessions in public libraries to help parents get scores from the database.
The sessions begin Monday in the Bronx. Parents can call 212 374-4118 for more information. Sessions will be held in a different borough each day.

A lawsuit brought by a candidate to become Detroit's next city clerk has a judge in Ingham County putting the brakes on the state certification of Detroit's primary election.
Fox 2 has learned that D. Etta Wilcoxen has filed a lawsuit claiming that State of Michigan canvassers do not have the right to tabulate votes in Detroit's mayoral primary election.
A Fox 2 source says Ingham County Circuit Court Judge Joyce Draganchuck has ordered a "stay" in the tabulation of votes until cause can be shown that the canvassers have the authority to do so. A hearing is scheduled for next Tuesday, September 3rd, in Draganchuck's courtroom.
This means Detroit's votes remain uncertified until at least next Tuesday.
At the center of the controversy is whether write-in votes were properly tabulated by the Detroit City Clerk election staff.
The Wayne County Board of Canvassers refused to certify the election results because it claimed procedures using hash marks to count votes were not followed.
Detroit City Clerk Janice Winfrey, who is running for re-election against D. Etta Wilcoxen, contests the notion that hash marks were needed for the official tabulation is incorrect. In her words, " a five is a five whether it's a whole number or hash marks."
The Wayne County Board of Canvassers sent the ballots to the Michigan State Board of Canvassers, who were close to finishing the job, according to at least one source.
More to come on this developing story. Be sure to watch Fox 2's Let it Rip at 10 p.m. on Thursday as the election result snafu is sure to create a loaded-crossfire debate.

Never Stop Making These Shoes
These are the most amazingly comfortable and stylish shoes. I own four pair! Just bought an extra pair of blacks for fear that I may not be able to buy them in the future. I am a high heel addict that has had to come to terms with the reality of what those shoes do to your feet over time. So I searched and searched for the right pair of oxfords - feminine, stylish, comfortable, well-made. I went through every oxford out there - Nine West, Born, Naya, bass, Caterpillar, Ralph Lauren - if you are looking for oxfords you know the list. These are the best on every count, hands down! Would love a deep, soft grey color to add to the stable. And how about making ribbon laces in different colors? I would buy them for sure!! Thanks again for making a great product!
We love comments like this, thanks so much for this great review!!

How do you most use this product?:Professional work attire
Feel like a dream
These shoes have the traditional oxford quality that I was looking for. The leather is soft but the shoe is substantial without being clunky. The black cherry color goes with everything. I have received many compliments on these awesome shoes.I have wide feet and the M sizing fits perfectly. Quality all the way! I can wear them all day.
These are a beautiful oxford with an unique look, allowing them to stand out to the fashionable eye! Thank you so much for this wonderful review and passing along the great compliments.

What do you do?
Just let them lay in bed and play happily, but in the dark with just white noise?
Medicate them (melatonin for us)?
Or get them back up and try again later?
Maiya's not a good sleeper, but does better for hubby than for me. However, I put her to bed tonight. For a while, when I put her to bed, she just had to cry herself to sleep because she will NOT sleep for me.
It seems as though she still won't sleep for me... But she's not crying. It's been over an hour and she's perfectly happy, laying down, staying in bed, fidgeting a little but not rolling around, not even playing, just occassionally singing to herself.
I am SO torn. I don't want to just let her lay there because I worry it's causing bad habits- I'm an insomniac, and my doctors always tell me to NEVER lay in bed awake, that it just teaches me to lay in bed awake. I don't want to start bad habits in my 2 year old!
But I also don't like jumping to melatonin, that's emergencies only... I don't want my 2 year old dependent on sleep aids, either!
But I don't want to get her back up, either, because that could cause bad habits, plus sleep begets sleep, and if I get her up, she will be awake far too late, and then be over tired tomorrow, and then sleep even worse... And it's just a downward spiral.
Oh, what to do, what to do...

Comments On Jul 15, 2014:It's a well built 18mm socket with several different ways of turning: wrench, socket, even has a hole if you need to break it loose with a screwdriver, (on tight applications where sockets won't fit.) But it does not fit into the small area on the XR400s, better to go with the Honda OEM thin walled socket.

Comments On Feb 13, 2014:Just a little too long to fit in a tight space. The tool is nice quality and will probably work fine for most applications but was just a smidge too long to work right on my bike.

Comments On Oct 22, 2013:This socket seems a little expensive until you get it. It is a nice thin wall socket that is even laser etched. Definitely worth the money.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jun 22, 2013:I was concerned when the product details said it is tight on a 400ex but I'd say it fits just perfect!!! Slid right in and did its job. Wasn't snug or require a special angle or any excessive effort. Worth every penny!

Comments On Jun 05, 2013:Me and my boyfriend always fiddle around with our bikes and this makes it alot easy to get the spark plug out , and its good quality and wont break or snap I recommend this product as a very handy tool
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Oct 22, 2012:These Honda's require a special thinner socket to ge spark plug out!! This one fits perfect. Quality socket at a good price from rockyMountainMC
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Aug 07, 2012:This is a nice tool, but it's about a half inch too long to be useful for the XR400. You can loosen the spark plug, but you can't remove the socket from space between the frame and the cylinder head with the spark plug more than a half turn from tight.
Sounds like the OEM is the way to go for the XR400.

The Creation of Life - Treating Female and Male infertility through the Eight Extraordinary Meridians
"In a woman of two times seven years, fertility arrives. Ren mai functions fully while the powerful Chong mai rises in power. The menses flow downward in their time and she bears children"
The Qi Jing Ba Mai, or 8 extraordinary meridians, constitute the framework for that most elusive source of life itself: the constant interaction of "Shen" and "Jing", from the moment of conception until the last breath of life. This framework can best be understood through the Chinese depiction of Early Heaven - the Ba Gua trigram arrangement according to Fu Xi.
In this seminar we will be exploring the framework of the Extra Meridians creating the very beginning of life - the dynamics of conception and pregnancy, the pathogenesis of infertility and recurrent abortions, and the treatment of common imbalances.
The seminar will include body and pulse diagnosis techniques that are unique to the eight extraordinary meridians, point energetics, internal pathways and connections between meridians, and clinical examples for the use of specific treatment protocols.

Madonna Is Ironic
Thursday, September 27, 2012
Madonna admitted to being ironic when she referred to President Obama as a black Muslim -- while onstage at a concert in Washington, DC. She reportedly told Reuters that her comments about Obama and his race and religion were meant to help people understand not be factual.
She said, "I was being ironic on stage. Yes, I know Obama is not a Muslim - though I know that plenty of people in this country think he is. And what if he were? The point I was making is that a good man is a good man, no matter who he prays to. I don't care what religion Obama is - nor should anyone else in America."

Hollywood Fearful of GTA 4 vs. Iron ManMore speculation is pouring in that tomorrow's release of Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3, X360) could dampen this Friday's arrival of the Iron Man film and its accompanying game, though not everyone is convinced.
"There's a big reset happening now," Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello told the Financial Times. "I don't think I've ever heard of [Hollywood being afraid of a game] before."
Last fall, some Hollywood executives blamed Bungie's Halo 3 (X360) for a 27% drop in ticket sales, causing a bit of Grand Theft Auto IV paranoia in Tinsel Town.
Earlier this month, a report surfaced that GTA 4 publisher Take-Two expects sales of $400 million in the game's first week on store shelves. The best of estimates have the Robert Downey Jr.-starring Iron Man flick pulling in a scant $100 million during its opening weekend at the box office.
However, not everyone believes that Grand Theft Auto IV is such a bad thing.
"Gamers buying GTA 4 are going to be talking about the game and they're going to be talking about the movies," prophesied Paul Dergarabedian, CEO of box office sales-tracking firm Media by Numbers. "The movie they will be talking about is Iron Man."
"The two properties can co-exist in the marketplace," added Marvel Studios worldwide marketing president Geoff Ammer. "We believe that moviegoers will make going to see Iron Man part of their weekend plans."

Every week I find myself struggling to remember the amount of reps, total weight and overall workout completed the previous week. It's frustrating to have to start over each workout because you can't remember to bring a notepad to track reps. So in order to make a change I finally decided to search the iTunes store for apps that track my routines.
30 seconds after the initial search I am off and running and without fail I have an entire list of apps to track every single workout I have done in the past month. The following is my list of the top three that I use each week.
This app is available on iTunes and on the Google Play Store and allows you to track by routine, exercises, logs and stats. It even goes through and showcases a figure with extended arrows showcasing multiple exercises to workout different parts of the body.
Looking for a new triceps workout? Just click triceps and it shows and demonstrates in GIF form over 30 different exercises.
You will never feel underwhelmed by your workout again.
Wish you had the ability to track with a painted road all of the locations you run? Not a problem with Run with Map My Run. The free app utilizes GPS and online maps to track your run and provide a detailed analysis of how far you ran, where you ran and how fast you were running.
The app also has a "nearby route" function that allows you to search through runs that others using Run with Map My Run have already cataloged into the app. We can so often get bogged down in our routine that running can become boring…unless you are always looking for the next great, scenic route. This app allows you to never run the same route twice.
Someone had to be first and in the world of online medical data and it's WebMD that I can remember being the leader for over 10 years. That continues to be the case when seeking medical information after hurting your back or simply needing some advice on that aching knee.
The free app allows you to use all the favorites from WebMD including:
a.) Symptom Checker
b.) Conditions
c.) Drugs & Treatments
d.) First Aid Information
e.) Local Health Listings
You won't think it's important until the moment you're stuck on the side of the run with searing pain in your right knee. (Not that it's happened to me)

1.Raja Davis will steal 60 bases and the Tigers will lead the American League in stolen bases. Davis had 45 steals in 108 games last season with the Blue Jays and will get more opportunities to showcase his speed especially with Andy Dirks on the shelf. Even when he doesnt start, Davis will be used frequently as a pinch runner and given the green light to go. Austin Jackson and Ian Kinsler will also steal 20 bases each, propelling the Tigers from worst to first in stolen bases in just one season under Brad Ausmus.
2. Speaking of Austin Jackson, he will hit 20 home runs this season as well.
3. Phil Coke remains on the roster all year. Tigers fans have fallen out of love with the left hander and this is most likely his final season in Detroit. But he will be in Detroit all year. As long he only pitches to lefties he is a decent veteran option to have in your bullpen.
4. Justin Verlander wins the Cy Young Award. If Spring Training was any indication, JV is back after having core muscle surgery during the off-season. The 2011 Cy Young winner tossed 20 plus scoreless innings during the spring and looks like the JV of old.
5. Anibal Sanchez finishes higher on the Cy Young ballot than Max Scherzer. Sanchez has fallen in love with the pitcher friend dimensions of Comerica Park and owns opponents in Detroit including a near no-hitter and a 17 strikeout performance last year. Scherzer has the weight of the world on his shoulders right now after declining a six-year $144 million deal from the Tigers last week.
6. Miguel Cabrera wins his third straight MVP but doesnt win the Triple Crown. Mike Trout closes the gap and there is an actual conversation about who the winner should be. Cabby will lead the league in batting average, and RBIs but will fall short in the home run category. Hell make up for it by leading the league in walks instead.
7. Nick Castellanos hits .280 with 17 home runs and 80 RBIs and finishes third in the AL Rookie of the Year voting.
8. Victor Martinez hits. 320 and drives in over 110 runs hitting behind Cabrera.
9. Rick Porcello has his best season of his career. The righty is entering his sixth season for the Tigers as a 25-year old, an age where most starting pitchers are only a year or two into their young careers, so its safe to say the best years are still ahead for Porcello. Porcellos strikeout rate increased last year while his hits allowed were down. An improved Tigers infield will increase the groundball heavy Porcellos efficiency. He finishes the season with an ERA under four for the first time since his rookie year and strikes out a career high.
10. The Tigers win 94 games, the AL Central, the American League Pennant and the World Series in six games over the St. Louis Cardinals.

The East Side Access tunnel that will connect the LIRR to Grand Central Terminal will cost nearly $ 5 billion; more than double the original estimate. And it could take another 10 years to complete. The chairman of the MTA called that "very disturbing" as he took over the project. MTA commuters were not happy either.
Taxpayers and commuters will eventually have to pay for the East Side Access cost overruns, according to the state's commuter advocate, Will Henderson, who said the overruns could put a real crimp on capital projects. That would mean reduced funding for new trains and repairing stations.
It has not been a good week for the MTA.
The No. 7 train extension is delayed too, though a mere three months. New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli found that the MTA may have paid LIRR workers overtime on shifts they did not work.
A spokesman for the authority responded that the MTA agrees with the state comptroller that employees should be paid only for hours they work. The LIRR's planned expansion of biometric time clocks later this year will provide an additional level of oversight.
The MTA had no comment on the East Side Access overruns. Though it appears the manager of that project will not be working at the authority after March.

MODERN SALON asks our Facebook fans: What are the best, least painful shoes to wear on the salon floor all day—while still maintaining some style?
Yvette Feekes Have to say Dansko. My first pair looked alarmingly like Dutch wooden shoes from the Tulip Festival, but the latest ones are actually nice looking.
Chasity Bogard Dansko...not the cutest but they have helped with the leg and back pain.
Caitlin Hopper Blowfish flats! They are inexpensive and super cute!!
Arwen Mimosa Wedges are comfy and easy to walk in!
Torrey Scott for the guys: skater shoes (not to dressy, and normally has a little of support) I prefer Supra Footwear or even Vans. If you're a little more dressy then ECCO Shoes all the way.
Maria Godino Sketchers Share Ups... not the best looking but comfortable.
Candace Rickborn Nike shocks. Not high end fashion but my pick on extension days!!!
Deirdre Flannery I live in my Borns at work. They have everything from flats, heals, wedges to boots. I can run a 12 hour day and not be in pain.
Fitflop boots Cindy L. Rolenc Aerosoles are the best or Impo are also my favorite for comfortable stylish boots.
Corinne-Anthony Lam My husband swears by his Clark's. Good arch support and style
Ellina Manuel 5Finger Shoes now make SUPER CUTE Fur and Leather, Buckles and Bows, Chains and Bling- Boots ankle, calf, and knee length. 5Fingers are great for posture, you can even go mountain hiking in them! I'm a stylist who loves the outdoors, so I recently got my first pair of 5Fingers Fashion shoes. Try them I swear they are way worth the price!
Christine Michaud They don't have a tonne of style, but my favorite comfy shoes at the salon are a pair of black Birkenstock clogs with an enclosed back. They have lots of support and my feet never hurt when I wear them.
Tammy Schwieder I wear Fit Flop boots. Awesome support for standing 6 plus hours and somewhat fashionable.
Jen Thomas I've done Born, Ecco and Earth but can't find anything that shouts STYLE-however me limping at the end of the day doesn't either so I have to make choices.
Kristin Newman I've found wedges are great. I have been working in heels for years so my feet are usde to them but wedge heels feel the best.
Aubrey DiBenedetto I have a pair of Sam Eddlemen platform wedges. LOVE. You would think they would hurt but not one bit.
Susan Moore Love my Chuck Taylor's and they get better with a little drip of color lol of course with arch supports while standing on my Rhyno mat:)
Jennifer Croffoot Alegria shoes or AK sport dress shoes but most of all what is lots of support for your feet..comfy and support should come first before style esp. for long days! I've worked for 25 yrs.50 to 60 hr. weeks and have already had the vein surgery twice so take care of the feet and legs...

Great Product By Dave on 9/5/2014Dave would recommend this product to a friendEZ to install and makes all the difference in my H2O production. I'm back to seeing 1:2 ratio just like when I first hooked up my RO/DI unit.
Wish I had gotten it sooner! By Pegasus on 6/9/2014Pegasus would recommend this product to a friendI bought this flush kit, and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. I change out my sediment and charcoal cartridges when my pressure drops +/-15psi, but I neglected my RO membrane for a year. Once I had depleted FOUR DI cartridges, I decided I needed this kit before replacing the RO membrane. IF I had gotten the kit when I first installed my RO/DI unit, I probably could have gotten 2-3 years out of the membrane. Not now. One year, and it needs replacing. I procrastinated and now I have to pay for it by purchasing a new RO membrane. Don't make the same mistake I did. Look at the price of this kit compared to a new membrane, and you'll see there is no reason NOT to buy it. It can extend the life of the membrane 200%-300%, so it'll only take a very few months to pay for itself. If you don have one, WHY are you still reading this? GET ONE!!!
great product By 1shawn on 5/1/20141shawn would recommend this product to a friendJust as described and easy to install. A must for for any ro/di system.
Great Product Great Price! By Charles on 3/2/2014Charles would recommend this product to a friendI have gotten these for all of my friends that are serious about the RO!
Must have for rodi By Gary on 2/23/2014Gary would recommend this product to a friendA must have on a rodi unit. This valve flushes ro membrane and extends the life.
Great Product By Steve on 2/13/2014Steve would recommend this product to a friendA great addition to my RODI system. Helps to prolong the life of the RO membrane.
easy install By Alabama Reef on 1/27/2014Alabama Reef would recommend this product to a friendvery easy to install, I had the small flow restrictor that goes in the drain line. took about 5 minutes total to get it installed.
Perfect and easy use By Redneck reefer on 1/23/2014Redneck reefer would recommend this product to a friendBought this to upgrade my existing rodi unit was easy to install and use and top quality
Easy to install, great product By Nick Club on 12/17/2013Nick Club would recommend this product to a friendworks perfect, keeps my membrane clean and super easy to install. A must have for any ro/di system.
Use Frequently By Frank on 11/23/2013Frank would recommend this product to a friendI added a flush kit to my RO unit and it has definitely increased the longevity of both my membrane and my di resin. I flush my membrane before every use.

creative greetings,
My LO @:
thanks for the challenge..
Mary Anne
What gorgeous designs ladies! Thanks so much for joining this month's challenge.
Here is the link to Welcome to My Garden in the gallery.
Here's my page:
For some reason it showed up twice in the gallery. Can anyone tell me how to delete one of the pages? I tried and only succeeded in deleting the image but not the entry!
My nephew takes wonderful scenic and nature photos. He gave me permission to use them for my layouts. I loved these 2 of the spring flowers that bloomed in his yard.
Here is how I completed the challenge:
2 photos
3 papers
1 journal card/tag - Spring in Virginia
5 flowers/plants/trees - used 1 leaf branch and 4 flowers
at least 1 insect or bug - used 4 butterflies
I used La Java Bleue Kit by Princess Designs
What a lovely layout! I love the colors you chose and the way you framed the page.

It's a controversial way for government agencies to save money.
Wild mustangs are taken from their habitat and brought into captivity.
The horses are then trained to work alongside government officials.
The Border Patrol buys these wild horses at a lower cost than thoroughbreds.
Even though the Border Patrol has access to some of the highest technology available, agents say horses are one of the most efficient ways to protect the border and always will be.
It takes plenty of patience to even get close to wild mustang Ethereal.
Agent Jeff Collup is the lead trainer at the Border Patrol horse facility in Willcox.
Ethereal is one of the newest mustangs to the training corral.
"What he has learned in the last week is how to cross his back foot in front of his other back foot," said Collup.
The Bureau of Land Management takes wild mustangs from over populated herds living in Wyoming, Nevada, even California. Most of the horses in Willcox are from Wyoming.
Before horses like Ethereal are brought here, some are taken to a prison right outside Colorado Springs where they begin their training.
Border Patrol agents then select a handful of horses that are able to hold up in Arizona's rugged terrain.
The Border Patrol first started training and riding wild mustangs in 2010. The Tucson sector was the last in the nation to adopt the noble mustang program.
"We were used to buying really good horses," said Bobbi Schad, who oversees the horse patrol unit.
But those thoroughbreds were expensive.
The Tucson sector merged with another government agency, the BLM and began purchasing discounted wild horses in bulk.
Horses have been a long time partner to Border Patrol agents.
It's a tradition that dates back to 1924 when the original group of Border Patrol agents only had horses and guns.
Today, agents have a variety of high tech instruments in their arsenal. Drones, motion detectors, helicopters and ATVs -- but an agent on a horse is just as useful as it was 90 years ago.
"They learn what they are looking for in the field," said Schad.
The horses learn how to search for smugglers.
"They know how to get and up mountains, in and out of washes, trees, brush.." added Schad.
Not everyone is on board with the wild mustang program like Gilbert horse rescue ranch owner Kim Meagher.
"I think the BLM should stop rounding up the wild horses. The best thing we can do for America's wild horses is to leave them alone."
If horses have to be plucked from the wild, Meagher wants them to have a duty.
"If a mustang is in the system, if he is already rounded up, let's find him a job."
Today Ethereal is getting used to riding with an agent. If he passes 90 days of training, he will be assigned to one agent to help protect the border.
When a horse retires, his agent can adopt him. If the agent is unable to, other government officials can adopt the horse.
The Florence prison is working on implementing a horse training program for wild mustangs.

Talk about commitment to the joke.
Not sure if you remember, but after the Grammy's Arby's official Twitter account tweeted this to Pharrell...
Hey @Pharrell, can we have our hat back? #GRAMMYs
— Arby's (@Arbys) January 27, 2014
Last week, Pharrell announced that he'd be auctioning the 'Smokey The Bear-esque' hat for charity, and guess who ended up with the winning bid?!
.@Pharrell You're welcome. We're HAPPY to support a great cause & get our hat back. Good luck at the #Oscars tonight! pic.twitter.com/2oA7qDPX9z
— Arby's (@Arbys) March 3, 2014
To which Pharrell responded...
What a pleasant surprise. Thank you @Arbys, our roast beef is now officially well done. 😝
— Pharrell Williams (@Pharrell) March 3, 2014
Well played, Arby's and Pharrell. Well played. $44,100.00 well spent. :)

TalkBack for Feb. 14: Burning permits, Dysfunctional gov't, Avoid gun shows
Burning permits
This is in regard to the burning that was mentioned in TalkBack. We, too, were victims of that burning. It wasn't like a wood-burning fire place or even a pile of leaves burning. It was a pervasive, acrid smoke that choked you up and gave you a headache that lasted for hours. I can't believe that they could have had a burning permit. Don't you need a permit in order to burn in a county?
Dysfunctional gov'tIn watching Hillary Clinton testify before Congress on Benghazi, you begin to realize just how bloated and dysfunctional our government is.
Our representativeCongressman Joe Wilson had the chance to represent Aiken in the Jan. 23 hearing and unfortunately he did. Wilson, clearly out of his league intellectually, asked Hillary Clinton why she didn't do the Sunday shows. Are you kidding me? This is what our representative wants to know? Oh, South Carolina, we can do better.
Avoid gun shows
I've been hearing about another gun and knife show going on in Augusta. I have been going to gun and knife shows for more than 15 years. One thing remains constant. They charge $10 for admission to see guns that are way overpriced, thinking you will buy them because of convenience, and 99 percent of the people who go leave disappointed. So, let me save you a trip. I, as a gun owner and a gun supporter all my life, discourage you for even supporting these rip-off places anymore. If you want a gun, go to the store and buy one. You will pay a lot less than you will at the gun show.

Thanks to Michael
The Floating Logos series by Matt Siber.
Thanks to Michael
Anna Burns is a set designer with a taste for the ambitious. Who could forget her work with Thomas Brown where they created B-Movie inspired installations out of flammable umbrellas? For her latest work Anna has collaborated with Michael Bodiam on a series inspired by nuclear catastrophe and our contradictory attitudes towards it – apocalyptic fear on the one hand and weird fascination on the other.
We've already sung the praises of the V&A's flagship London Design Festival project – Barber Osgerby's extraordinary reflective installation in the Raphael Cartoons Gallery – but there are some other gems on offer at the spiritual home of the festival.
I have no idea who Mr G.G.Hines is. And yet I am standing surrounded by junk staring at his black leather passport holder. I am transfixed by it; lost in reveries about who he was, where he travelled to and what his handwriting – neat, confident but not fussy – says about him. I am also wondering how his passport came to be here, and the answer to that begins with Dan Tobin Smith.
Three years ago at the London Design Festival, the Bouroullec Brothers transformed the Raphael Cartoons gallery at the V&A by installing a huge textile-covered platform down the centre of the vast room. It became a playful, very human space in the heart of one of London's most august institutions, and remains one of the most talked-about festival projects of recent years.
GIFs are usually reserved for that corner of the internet preoccupied with getting a quick laugh out of an easy audience (us included) so it's surprisingly poignant to see the popular form employed not to show how funny a dog walking on its hind legs can be but to express a more powerful idea. This is exactly what Sofia Niazi has done with her new project Women of WOT. She wanted to utilise the medium to tell the unheard stories of the women forgotten by the War on Terror, but soon found that her project took a unexpected turn.
Just when you thought the only time you'd get to see some fruit getting jiggy with each other was the last time you ate a Moam bar, here's Amelie von Wulffen's paintings. Amelie's work is a refreshing, sometimes sinister, sometimes sexual series of water-colour paintings depicting a strange mixture of food and tools interacting with each other as if they were humans – eating ice cream and going to music concerts and the like. As well as reducing mankind down to what it really is – a bunch of ridiculous creatures bumbling around the earth – Amelie's real success here is bringing dark comedy into the largely unfunny art world, and for that she should be praised.
We've long maintained that to really get to know how a creative's mind works, it's best to explore their personal work, which often tells you much more than their professional portfolio. Another good example of this comes from London-based identity designer Iancu Barbarasa, who works under the name Iancul, and his terrific new Drawriting project, which "turns thoughts and their letters into visual puzzles."
Co-founders of Dastoli Digital Robert and James were huge fans of Star Wars in the late 1990s, recreating hundreds of images from comics, books and game graphics on Microsoft Paintbrush using the Windows 3.1 operating system. In the run-up to the release of Star Wars Episode VII which will come out on 18 December 2015 they're releasing an image a day from this seemingly bottomless archive, giving fellow fans a glimpse of their fantastic attention to detail and brilliantly retro colour palette.
Anna Valdez is the kind of artist who makes me want to swathe myself and everything around me in layers of tropical prints and geometric patterns and embrace a new sartorial existence as a wannabe art teacher. Her mastery of textiles is so thorough that some of her pieces almost feel like studies, an effect which makes sense considering her academic interests. With a background in anthropology she paints domestic interiors as though they were portraits, with every detail contributing to the overall effect, whether it be house plants, intricately reproduced book covers, woolly jumpers or oriental rugs.
Australian artist Kit Webster is has long been fascinated with the emotional and psychological tricks he can play through the manipulation of sound and light. His new piece Hypercube is a concentric cubic sculpture with a 120-metre LED set-up that can be controlled using specially-created software. The pre-recorded cycles allow Kit to control the viewer's experience, speeding the cube up to a frenzy and breaking the tension with meditative moments of calm.
Apologies if this is a slightly dismayed post, but upon thinking I had stumbled across a gem via Nieves' announcement of some new zines I was excited to be the first to write about Keegan McHargue on It's Nice That. Alas I was not, but it doesn't mean that we can't shout about his brilliance once more.
When I was a teenager I'd have given my right arm for patches emblazoned with the lyrics of my favourite songs. It was the height of cool to be covered in brightly-coloured band paraphernalia (or at least I thought so). German artist Selma Alaçam clearly thought so too as her latest project Heartstrings combines some of her favourite song lyrics from the likes of Fiona Apple and Depeche Mode. The seven woven rugs – based on the traditional kelim, native to Turkey – have been hand-embroidered with bold typographic verses, whose personal importance is known only to the artist. To the rest of us these embroideries are like beautifully ambiguous album covers, enticing you in with their bright, bold colours.
It's plain to see that Lee Marshall's artwork is a product of the digital age; his smooth gradients, vectorised objects and figures apparently created in an early version of Corel Draw all evoke the atmosphere of an abstract digital landscape. But Lee's creations all exist in the real world as paintings, drawings and sculptures, bringing a unique physicality to environments we'd expect to experience on a flat screen. The Norwich School of Art graduate has been perfecting this signature style since his student days, but with an ever-increasing list of group and solo shows to his name we're expecting more great things from Lee over the coming months and years.

The worst kept secret in all of sports became official today.
Johnny Manziel filed his paperwork to enter the NFL Draft.
In other news, the sky is blue and water is wet.
No one could honestly be shocked that the first-ever [redshirt] freshman to win the Heisman Trophy would declare his intention to go pro as soon as humanly possible. NFL rules dictate that a player's high-school class must be three years past graduation before he can be eligible. "Johnny Football" sat for a year at Texas A&M, played a year and won the Heisman, then was obligated to play another year.
I will note that this time last year, Manziel was not exhibiting the necessary maturity to take this step, were it available to him. He was reportedly drinking, carousing and getting dismissed from quarterback camps. The NFL mandate is ostensibly about physical maturity -- that players' bodies need to "ripen" before facing the elite competition -- but, at least in his case, the issue was mental/emotional maturity. I am not knocking Manziel so much because we all made some dumb choices in those years of our lives; I am certainly no exception. So very few of us faced the kind of public scrutiny as he has and will continue to face.
He appears to have grown a great deal in the past year, one that was not as successful as last, though not an embarrassment by any means. He seems to handle the klieg light of fame with so much more grace and poise. In short, he has grown up. I think the NFL rule, in large part, has helped prevent him from becoming another JaMarcus Russell, Akili Smith or Ryan Leaf. Only time will tell on that, but I think Manziel is far better equipped than he was in January 2013.
Not that THAT should be a surprise either.
Next thing you know, someone will tell me that Rosebud was a sled.

RT @jimgeraghty: Kind of strange how Thatcher, a self-described anti-feminist, achieved a position of power no feminist has yet reached.
It seems to me that Thatcher only held back the tide of socialism, not "smashed it". It seems to be rather on full display today.
