decent flavor, fall apart immediately. Very wasteful packaging.

These are quite tasty. They are individually wrapped, which is good for portion control, though perhaps not so good for the environment. This is a great price for them too.
Very yummy and practical

These had the right balance of cookie and chocolate chips and were definitely good eats for a packaged cookie. Since they're wrapped individually they're very practical to take with you anywhere. Also, if you don't demolish them on the day they arrive, the packaging helps keep them fresh and not go stale, which is a big plus in my book ;)
Very Yummy!

The University Writing Program, offered by the Department of Writing Studies, Rhetoric, and Composition, creates the intellectual atmosphere in which students can acquire rhetorical knowledge and strategies to write purposefully, incisively and ethically. Students and faculty in the program read closely and critically, explore rhetorical situations and cultural contexts, engage in inquiry, and study the elements of well reasoned, persuasive discourse.
The program sets appropriate performance-based standards to ensure that students incorporate those skills integral to writing cogent arguments. Incoming freshmen who need additional support gaining academic literacy may be required to complete WTNG 100 – Introduction to Academic Writing, with a grade of C- or higher. The University Core Curriculum writing requirement is fulfilled by successfully (grade of C- or higher) completing the following: WTNG 102 Expository Writing and a WTNG course at the 200 level or above
In Expository Writing, students learn how to write well-structured, well-developed arguments that demonstrate proficiency in standard written English. Advanced writing courses encourage students to produce increasingly sophisticated arguments; refine their writing style; conduct academic and/or professional research; understand the scholarly communication process; identify, locate, analyze, interpret, and synthesize information to support purpose; demonstrate critical, civic, and information literacy through their writing and rhetoric; and communicate effectively with academic and professional audiences. Students should consult their advisors to determine which advanced course is best suited to their major and their personal goals.

SAN ANTONIO — UTSA will hit the road for the final time this regular season when it travels to the Pacific Northwest this weekend for games at Idaho and Seattle.
The Roadrunners (14-11, 8-6 WAC) will face the Vandals (12-14, 9-6 WAC) at 8 p.m. (CT) on Thursday before a 9 p.m. (CT) tilt against the league-leading Redhawks (15-9, 12-3 WAC) two days later.
UTSA is coming off a 74-65 victory against I-35 rival Texas State back on Feb. 16. The Birds erased a 17-point first-half deficit to sweep the season series from the Bobcats for the seventh time. Whitney Wright and Simone Young led the way with 14 points apiece, while
Wright added three blocks to push her career total to 101, which is a new program all-time record. The comeback was the Roadrunners' largest since a Jan. 28, 2009, win against Texas State when UTSA also dug out of a 17-point hole.
The Roadrunners will be looking to avenge a 64-45 loss to the Vandals on Jan. 26 in San Antonio, while the Birds can become the only league school to sweep Seattle on Saturday. UTSA handed the Redhawks their first conference defeat and snapped their seven-game winning streak with a 65-55 triumph on Jan. 24 at the Convocation Center.

- I am not sure if AJ Ellis has made it to the game as yet, but his call-up and Ohman going to the DL leaves only two arsonists in the bullpen (Mota and Wade) – those guys are four-letter words right now.
- No one seems to know if Joe will move Russ to 3B at times now that we have 3 catchers and I doubt he will say. We will just have to wait and see.
- I really think something is wrong with Raffy. I watched him closely last night and he just didn't move right at times. I just can't put my finger on it… But not playing in a day gime following a night games tells you something.
- Our RBI leader, James Loney (36) is 5th in the NL.
- We just keep on rolling without THAT GUY!
- Maybe, Just Maybe this is Juan Pierre's Magical season. If Manny came back today, would he play?

MINOR LEAGUE REPORT (by Lawdog)
AAA–Albuquerque Isotopes 5-28-09
The Albuquerque Isotopes managed 8 runs on 11 hits to give Charlie Haeger (5-3, 4.99) the win, (8-6, over Colorado Springs Al Johnson (5-2, 4.82).
In the first inning, Colorado managed to score two on a single to center by Matt Miller. Miller's hit was then followed by a three run homer to right by Mark Belhorn. And took a commanding lead, 5-0, before our Isotopes even came to bat.
In Colorado's second, shortstop Blake DeWitt was credited with an assist when Carlos Gonzales cut down at the plate trying to score from second on an error by Henry Luna (first base man). Blake's play prevented further damage for the time being.
The Isotopes managed a hit by Charlie Haeger on a liner to left in the bottom of the third and was sacrificed by Hu to second. Blake DeWitt drew a walk but the Isotopes did not score.
In the bottom of the 4th inning, the Isotopes started to make a little noise sending 8 batters to the plate. Dee Brown opened the inning with a line single to center and Mitch Jones walked. Charlie Haeger then drove in Brown with with another single to center. Repko managed to get hit by a pitch which allowed one of the Dodgers favorite "prospects" (oh, he with the fluttering eye and solid glove) to pull a grand salami into the left field seats. The blow was his second homer of the season making him someone to keep on eye on as the season progresses. This tied the score at 5-5.
The Isotopes then pulled away for good in the bottom of the 6th when they sent 11 players to the plate. Haeger singled and went to second on a wild pitch. Jason Repko singled him to third. Hu whiffed. Blake DeWitt then singled home Haeger (who must have still been in this game for his prodigious offense.) Repko then scored on a fielder's choice. Dee Brown then closed the scoring by doubling home Hector Luna who had singled and moved to second on Mitch Jones' walk. This gave the Isotopes an 8-5 lead.
Henry Bonilla replaced Haeger in the 8th. Colorado Springs went quietly as Bonilla gave up no hits or runs on one walk.
Albuquerque went quietly in the bottom of the 8th and Colorado did the same in the top of the 9th when Scott Strikland replaced Bonilla and recorded a save. Scott pitch to three batters–striking out 2.
(Andy La Roche did not play, having been traded to the Pittsburg Pirates in the Manny Ramirez deal last year. Word has it Andy is doing quite well for his new team now that he's finally getting a chance to play injury free…)
Postponed by rain (for the week)
A Advanced INLAND EMPIRE 66ers
Kuroda blew up in he 4th inning of his rehab start at A Adanced minor leagues May 27 of this year.
It took ten innings but our 66ers finally fell to the Modesto team by a score of 8-7. Reynolds was the winning pitcher (3-1.0.93 while Withrow drew the loss (3-4 5.65). Nobody managed to hit a gopher ball.
Modesto scored 3 runs in the first with Charels Blackmon and Jason Kooten getting singles in front of Lars Davis triple which scored them both. Davis then scored on a ground out giving Hector Gomez an RBI.
Inland Empire came back in the bottom of the third when Preston Mattingly doubled home Elian Herrera and Garabedian both of whom had walked to make the score 3-2 in favor of Modesto.
Matt Repec and Brian Rike then doubled off Kuroda. Jeffery Cunningham continued the merry-go-round with the third consecutive double of the inning off Kuroda. Kuroda then threw away a ball hit back to box for an error which allowed two more runs to score in the process. Michael Mitchell later scored on a sacrifice fly by Van Hooten. Kuroda was responsible for all the runs and now trailed 7-2 after just 4 innings pitched.
In the Inland 5th, Adolpho Gonzalez and Matt Repec reached on errors and were driven in by Scott Van Slyke's ground out and Pedro Baez single.
In the top of the 6th, Kuroda was replaced–his rehab start finished for the day.
In the bottom of the 7th, Inland finished their scoring on Slyke's double (his 15th), Steven Caseres triple (2) and a passed pall.
The final and deciding run was scored by Modesto in the top of the 10th when Jason Kooen doubled and later scored on a single to center by Radames Nazario
For those of us looking for a quick return by Kuroda, this outing was not pleasant news.
Is Pedro still looking for work?
A Great Lakes Loons
For those Dodger fans who have just consumed a meal or want to look forward to nights game with the Cubbies, I'd suggest you skip this summary (which I will probably give short shrift because there were 10 walks given up up by our Loons on the 28th. The Loons still made it almost respectable getting beat 5-4 to Kane County and it took the Cougars 10 innings to get the dastardly deed done.
Ethan Martin started and walked six in four innings and somehow only managed to give up one run! He also struck out 6 so he had the stuff today, just no command. Luis Garcia followed by giving up a hit (a three run homer by Anthony Hatch but managed to avoid giving up any free passes. Kyle Smith followed Garcia and gave got 4 outs. Robert Boothe tried to finish for the Loons giving up one hit and two walks pitching into the tenth. But he had to give way with two on and one out for Dutton who promptly walked Napoleon and Christian to force in the winning run.
Anthony Hatch hit a three run home run in the sixth to give the Loons a short lived lead, bur Dusty Coleman came back with a three run shot of his own in the 8th to take the lead back once more.
The Loons rallied for one more run to tie the score in the 8th when Jaime Pedroza doubled, stole third and scored on a sacrifice fly by Nick Buss.
The Loons failed to rally in the bottom of the tenth after Cougars reliever hit the first two batters, Pedroza and Buss. He then retired the last three Loon hitters in a row to record his fourth save.

But from the historic prospective, nothing will count nearly so heavy as last week's first step toward a nuclear weapons-free world by rewriting the defense policy on use of atomic bombs against other nations and their civilian populations. Countries that sign the non-proliferation agreements and abide by their rules are off the nuclear hook, so far as we are concerned, and their cooperation in stopping the spread of nukes will be much appreciated, even if they are otherwise opposed to our nation's policies.
Further, we pledge not to develop any next-generation weapons and eventually, if things go well, a reduction of one-third of the stockpiled atomics now in hand. Between Russia and the U.S. that would mean a little less than 2,000 warheads — more than enough for armageddon, but less than necessary to wipe out life on Earth, we are assured.
While there are numerous special circumstances and loopholes left open, the American declaration and the signing of the new non-proliferation treaty with Moscow on Thursday last mark the first revision of our policy on when to go nuclear, against whom and why since the end of the Second World War. It marks a turning away from wholesale slaughter as a strategy for war and a promise that conflicts will be resolved without mutual annihilation by all parties.
And just in time, if I may say so.
Last year the world braced for an atomic test by North Korea, the notably intransigent late comer to the nuclear club. The blast, on an eastern test site in the People's Republic, was less powerful than the primitive bombs used against Japan to end the Pacific war, and generally reported as some sort of failure for the communist scientists. In reality, the test warned of a dangerous development in the weaponology and tactics of future wars. The widely propagated myth of total destruction by nuclear barrage was never true. Thermo-nuclear hydrogen bombs can wipe out entire cities and their suburbs, but barring vast intercontinental ballistic missle exchange, the rest of the globe might mourn but they won't die in large numbers.
Low-yield small nukes, on the other hand, are entirely usable in battle, where denying the enemy territory necessary to advance is a priority. The terrorism application of easily portable bombs is terrifying as well. The suppression of a next-generation of mini nukes is an important goal of any new international agreement to be forged.
The historians of the next century may well credit President Barack Obama for saving the world from ourselves, provided, that is, there are any historians left by the next century.

Talk about a sudden death! Wednesday night on "American Idol" it was one and done as ten of the Top 20 girls headed to Vegas, baby, for another shot at singing superstardom. And while a clear frontrunner (or two) has already been established, five girls had their "Idol" dreams shattered for good. Or at least until next year at this time.
The judges were in rare form -- especially Nicki Minaj -- and had little tolerance for throaty twangs and bad hairdos. ("Lose the hair," Nicki told contestant Tenna Torres, "It's aging you.")
Contestant Brandy Hotard got slammed for smiling her way through a sad Travis Tritt song. "That was a pageant delivery," Nicki told her, while Keith Urban also questioned the psych nurse's bizarre smiling as she sang lyrics like, "I can't hold the hurt inside, keep the pain out of my eyes."
Isabelle Pasqualone also got some pageant commentary with her performance of "God Bless the Child." (Note to the remaining girls: Don't smile.) And a few of the girls got more kudos for their fashion sense than their singing.
One girl who didn't need frilly fashion was Kree Harrison, who belted out "Up To the Mountain" in a basic blouse and jeans.
"You get up there and you are completely clothed," Nicki marveled. "Some girls have to show so much skin to feel sexy … something about you is just so sexy when you sing."
"She doesn't have to wear the outfit, she doesn't have to do anything," Randy Jackson said, after calling Harrison "a natural born singer." (It doesn't get much better than that from the Dawg.)
The final verdict: "I would be very afraid if I were any other of these girls here tonight," Nicki told her.
But it was Mariah Carey who had the critique of the night. She told 18-year old Amber Holcomb that her rendition of "My Funny Valentine," was so good that she wanted to smack her. We guess that was a compliment?
Who Went Home?
After the performances, the judges made quick work of their short list and determined it was the end of the road for Jenny Beth Willis, Isabelle Pasqualone, Kamaria Ousley, Shubha Vedula and Brandy Hotard. Sorry, girls. Maybe next year?
Meanwhile, Tenna Torres, Kree Harrison, Angela Miller, Amber Holcomb and Adriana Latonio all made the cut. At this point, Angela Miller is a clear front runner -- the judges were still talking about her original piano song "You Set Me Free" -- but as we've seen in the past, an early peak can sometimes play out with mixed results. (Andrew Garcia, anyone?)

This NBA 2013 finals start stink.bad.like someone on the San Antonia Spurs (Green) betray them on the last game,just look how Green play the game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals...and after that he was celebrating with the Miami Heat...???
LeBron James clears air: 'Danny Green did not party with' Miami Heat
LeBron James took to Twitter to defend his former Cavaliers teammate Danny Green, who has received backlash since photos and videos emerged of the Spurs' wing greeting the Miami Heat at Story nightclub following their NBA Finals win on Thursday.
"Danny Green did not party with us on Thursday night. He came to say congrats," James tweeted on Sunday afternoon, saying he was "proud" of Green for his development.
Green was the story of the series through five games, in which he broke the NBA Finals record by sinking 25 threes on 38 attempts. The Cavs' second-round draft pick in 2009, Green was waived by both Cleveland and San Antonio before spending time in the NBA D-League and becoming the Spurs' starting shooting guard.
Danny Green did not party with us on Thursday night. He came to say congrats and I told him how proud of him I was for taking advantage…..—
LeBron James (@KingJames) June 23, 2013
full advantage of the opportunity he was giving and keep going. We dapped up, showed love and he left. #StopBelievingAllYouHear—
LeBron James (@KingJames) June 23, 2013
Green himself tweeted on Friday to clarify that he was not "celebrating" with the Heat but just "happened to be there."
Got give credit to Miami…but don't think for one sec I was out celebrating with them…jus happened to be at the same place, wrong time—

THOMSEN: LeBron's rise leaves Duncan, Spurs haunted by missed chances
MANNIX: Game 7 will haunt Spurs, but don't write their epitaph just yet
Who cares???
LEBRON JAMES@KING JAMES "Shouout to all de dipshts dat dfends me whn I says dumbas stuf. Yall lozers be my homies, Get life."
Yeah, how cares if he did. They were teammates before. Sometimes the media and gossip columns get their hands dirty looking for dirt when all they are doing is playing in the mud....nothing here.
Does it matter if he did? His team made the championship series and at least let him have some celebration as long as he doesn't do anything stupid and arrested.
Quite a little game trying to understand the spelling and sentence structures of these two young scholars.
you can't help yourself, can you? Perfect gif to represent yourself with...
@6marK6 have you ever made a comment that wasn't malicious and ill willed? Best you take some time off.
yes, because "dapped' really made it hard to read Lebrons message....
I see you are on here once again trying to bash everyone that is doing good as I said before it must suck being you..Glad to see everyone in the community put you in you in check.lol...try not to get your panties in a bunch everyday. Pink does not look good on you,
And the loser in that little game? No matter what, it's the tool with the username 6marK6. Enjoy your prize, whatever it is.
And the loser in that little game? No matter what, it's the tool with the username 6marK6. Enjoy your prize, whatever it is.
@6marK6 I'm an English teacher, and my spelling and sentence structure is impeccable....but not on *Twitter*!!! You want a scholar (and I am one) to be grammatically perfect, I'm going to need a lot more than 140 characters. Get over yourself.
@6marK6 Really? You're going to be a spelling/grammar Nazi... with Twitter? Lighten up, Francis...
@6marK6 Yes... Because obviously an informal social networking site, which only allows 140 characters per message, is definitely a platform that will accurately display ones intelligence. *Sigh*How ironic that in trying to insult someone's intellect you unwittingly exposed your own ignorance. Congratulations. A+
@6marK6 Obviously a game you are perpetuating with "sentence structures".
Pay him no mind this loser trolls cnnsi just hating on anyone positive..just look at his user name ....Nuff said
Concur. The amount of veiled racism on these sports sites is disheartening. People are people. Integrity and honor is either there, or it is not there.
"In conditioning the people, what plea so tainted and corrupt/ But,
being seasoned with a gracious voice, obscures the show of evil." –Shakespeare
I think it is ill advised for one to claim to be a scholar and then proceed to type a statement consisting of improper punctuation, sentence fragments, run on sentences, and dangling participles. Lebron never claimed to be a scholar, nor to have impeccable sentence structure, and thus the criticism levied against him is unwarranted. After all, if Lebron studied under English professors such as FDowney, it is a miracle he can write coherently at all.
@JasonMacBride @drudown @D.1 @6marK6
"Few cross over the river. Most are stranded on the wrong side- often due to personal biases and warps in perception. On the riverbank they run up and down. But the wise person, seeing the unity of life- seeing himself in all creatures and all creatures in himself- abandons feelings of hate that arise from lust, and understands that such racial distinctions are as empty as the frailty of ocean's foam. Verily, only love dispels hate. This is the law, ancient an inexhaustible. A place the wise call home."
I'm going to guess that FDowney applied the same requirement of standard to posting in a comments section that he would to posting on Twitter. I.e. that it's a colloquial setting, and hence colloquial expression is not only acceptable, but warranted. There was nothing incoherent about his post, hence your snarky riposte was entirely... unwarranted.
Get over yourself.

Slope Houses, Ephesus
Behind the shops on the south side of Curetes Street near the Library of Celsus are luxurious private houses, known as the Slope Houses for their location on the slopes of Mt. Coressus (Bulbuldag). Occupied from the 1st century to 7th century AD, the Slope Houses have been compared to the 1st century villas of Pompeii in importance.
The Slope Houses are also known as the Terrace Houses and Hanghausen (in German, because the archaeologists are Austrian).
The Slope Houses were used from the 1st century to 7th century AD, and then were abandoned. Around this time, after the devastating Arab raids and the continued silting up of the harbor, the remaining inhabitants of Ephesus moved to Ayasuluk hill (near the Basilica of St. John).
After being abandoned, the Slope Houses gradually fell into decay. However, a number of them were filled with soil from landslips, which preserved them and their contents.
The houses at Ephesus are not inferior to those found at Pompeii and Herculaneum in terms of preservation and importance. Their decor and furnishings provide a great deal of information about the lifestyle of the Ephesian upper class in the Roman and Byzantine periods.
What to See
The Slope Houses are still being excavated and are sometimes covered by a tent, but are usually open to the public. They can be reached by a flight of steep steps from Curetes Street. The ruins have been divided by archaeologists into Slope House 1 (south) and Slope House 2 (north, closer to the Library). Each house had three stories, running water, heating, and an atrium with an entrance onto the side street.
In Slope House 1, room A1 has a fine black-and-white mosaic. Room A2, the atrium, has a marble floor with the remains of a fountain in the center. The walls of rooms A10 and A11 are decorated with frescoes.
The most interesting room in this house, though, is A3, dubbed the "theater room" based on the theatrical subjects of its frescoes. One of the owners of the house may well have overseen theater performances in Ephesus for a living. The right-hand wall has a scene from Menander's comedy, Perikeiromene ("The Girl Who Gets her Hair Cut"), and the left wall bears a scene from Euripides' Orestes.
The room also contains a fine fresco of the mythological battle between Hercules and the river god Achelous for the hand of Deianeira. The shape-shifting Achelous assumed the form of a dragon and of a bull during the struggle, and only accepted defeat when Hercules tore off one of his horns.
Slope House 2 is larger than its neighbor. Built in the 1st century AD, it was altered and extended several times before being abandoned in the 6th century. Many of its rooms feature mosaics and frescoes. Rooms B9 and B10 have frescoes of the muses. The house has two atria, the larger of which has several fine Corinthian columns lining a passageway paved with a beautiful mosaic of a triton and sea-nymph.
The most interesting room in Slope House 2 is the atrium, because of a beautiful and unusual 5th-century glass mosaic in a niche. The niche is flanked by a decorative fresco of erotes supporting a garland. Inside the niche is a delicate glass mosaic of the heads of Dionysus and Ariadne against a background of luxuriant foliage and an array of glittering animals and birds. As the light changes, the glass tiles sparkle and glow, making the figures in the mosaic appear to move. The late date indicates the owners were likely Christians, making the pagan subject interesting.
Some of the major finds from the Slope Houses can be see in the Ephesus Museum, rooms 1 and 3.

An ode to Jimi Hendrix on his would-be 70th birthday
Jimi Hendrix would be 70 today were he still around to have birthdays. And I am sure that if he were still around he would not be opening his concerts with "Purple Haze".
A70-year-old Hendrix would not be playing anything like the virtuoso pop he was trying to escape at the time of his death.
The Rolling Stones this week opened the first concert of their - probably the last - tour with "I Want to be Your Man", the debut record which Lennon/McCartney wrote for them in 1963 -19-flippin-63, about 50 years ago
It wasn't particularly good then and it still isn't, except as a piece of music archeology which is probably what the Stones have become.
Fifty years ago Hendrix was playing in the Isly Brothers band and it is hugely unlikely he would open a concert today with "Testify", the first recording on which he appeared. (Cue up Jimi's song ``51st Anniversary'' on the turntable).
Radio today is playing Hendrix songs to salute his birth and this small taste gives an idea of how he had revolutionised music in a way the Rolling Stones couldn't. And in a way which is still influential.
Hendrix died in September, 1970, after taking nine of his girlfriend's sleeping pills instead of the half a tablet her doctor had prescribed.
He drowned in red wine, which he had vomited until it choked his lungs. His death confirmed the creation of the 27 Club made up of music greats who died at that age. Robert Johnson, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, and Amy Winehouse are others on the list.
In those 27 years he became household name. Well, in some households. Around 1990 Kevin Rudd was listening in on a discussion among Queensland colleagues.
"During some music banter, the cultural icon and guitar-playing Hendrix was mentioned, which drew a complete blank from a 33-year-old Rudd: 'Who's he?','' reported Dennis Atkins in 2009.
Clearly there were still audiences for Jimi to conqueror.
It's fair to speculate that had Hendrix not encountered overdoses and other dumb and fatal aspects of his rock'n'roll lifestyle he would still be playing. His brother-in-law Guitar Shorty, like Jimi a career musician, was born three years before him and is still performing.
Hendrix's first recording with the Experience was "Are You Experienced'', which included "Purple Haze", and the fourth and last he released before his death was the live "Band of Gypsys''. A lot happened to his music in the four years between "Are You Experienced' and "Band of Gypsys".
Hendrix was talking about collaborations with Miles Davis and he and Buddy Miles were heading into more jazz fusion. He was moving deeper into the new territories being pioneered by African American musicians.
It was a period of great change in music. In late 1969 the Rolling Stones release "Let it Bleed" which includes the brilliance of "Gimme Shelter'', "Love in Vain", "Midnight Rambler" and "You Can't Always Get What You Want''. It also was Brian Jones last appearance on a record.
But in 1968 Hendrix had pushed boundaries further than the Stones could contemplate with the hugely advanced and highly self-indulgent "Electric Ladyland", a stunning production which influenced a wide range of musicians.
The notion Hendrix would today return to "Are You Experienced'' in a concert today is like imagining John Lennon would open a show with "She Loves You Yeah, Yeah, Yeah''. The Stones were admirers of Hendrix when he was London based but took a while to rate him.
In early 1966 a former girlfriend of Keith Richards, Linda Keith, saw Hendrix at a New York club and introduced him to LSD. She also urged the Stones' management to take him on.
The idea was rejected.

Voodoo Child says:
Jimi Hendrix played the electric guitar the way god design it WILD !!! Gen Y forget about 80's music and watch the greatest of all time go about it.
alan k says:
RIP Jimi - too often treated as super-human or sub-human by the industry and many people of the day. Like all true artists, he was inherently pure. Lies in State with Amadeus.
SM says:
Always thought Hendrix was massively overrated myself. His most well known song is a Dylan cover, whom, along with the Stones, he doesn't hold a candle to.
Far from still performing today if he was alive, I think he'd have drifted off into obscurity long ago, like a good portion of the 27 Club
subotic is experienced says:
And for the really adventurous out there, I'd encourage a spin of "Black Gold", the Wu-Tang Clan/ Jimi Hendrix mash-up album.
Ol' Dirty Bastard & Jimi Hendrix together at last.
Honest, does it get any better? Hendrix AND Hip-Hop?
Swear I'd turn the whole 5% if only they'd let me….
iansand says:
It is the difference between the Stones and a lot of bands. The Stones were a really good rock/blues band and still are. That's it. There is no more. People like Hendrix and Lennon/McCartney saw what there was and wondered where it could go.
TRBNGR says:
Played Little Wing on my very under used (almost neglected) Strat before I left home this morning and I'll be cranking some more of Jimmys tunes this afternoon, advanced apologies to the neighbours.
Bear says:
He was hard core for his time. I could see him jamming with Slayer. That's a wet dream. Damn you God!
gobsmack says:
I think he would be playing the blues if he were still alive today.
His best tracks were blues numbers.
OzTrucker says:
So no-one has heard of (in no order of preference) Santana, Ted Nugent, Brian Setzer, Tommy Emanuel (an Aussie BTW) or Joe Satriani.
All still breathing. All still entertaining audiences. All better guitarists than Hendrix.
BASSMAN says:
A great read. I think Come On was the Stones 1st go at recording. That aside, I have just finished reading Bill Wyman's "Stone Alone" A 400 page history of The Stones. The thing that came out of it was what I DIDN'T appreciate or know. Brian Jones played about 16 instruments and was a brilliant musician. Bill Wyman credits him with many of "Richards' riffs" including the intro to Honkey Tonk Women, The Last Time and heaps of others. He was also the Harp sound behind the Stones.He was on the outer because Jagger and Richards controlled the songwriting and would not let him in. Ditto for Randy Meisner and Timothy Schmidt of the Eagles. Funnily enough, Hendrix was playing jazz for many years before he invented those magical guitar hooks. For sure, he would be playing other stuff if he were still alive but if you think he would be allowed off stage before he played Red House, All Along The Watch Tower, Foxy Lady, Purple Haze etc…er well I don't know Mal. And I know YOU would not let him off the stage before you heard them! For mine The Stones have not written anything significant since their early albums but neither have Billy Joel, Macca, David Gates, Elton John,Neil Young, Cliff Richard, Van Morrison, Pete Townsend,Burt Bacharach,Leiber and Stoller,Neil Sedaka,Springsteen,Neil Diamond…just to name a few. The songwriting window of opportunity is a very very short one and if you waste the short time to have hits well…the opportunity is lost.
DaveB says:
Malcolm, I don't agree with you calling Electric Lady land' "self indulgent", even though I acknowledge it influenced a lot of musicians. Hendrix had taken recording techniques to an astronomical level with the advent of 'Electric Lady Studios', and yes, he was "moving deeper into new territories". Jimi's music had moved into another spectrum with the release of the album 'The Cry of Love', incorporating tracks that he'd originally intended to release in an LP under another name. I do wonder what he'd be playing today, if he were still alive. Hey, my claim to fame is that I was born in the same hospital Hendrix was pronounced dead in!
'The Stone's' are still to my mind, the greatest rhythm & blues / rock band to have graced the planet. To confuse the two genres is wrong.
iansand says:
He might have done a Keith Jarret or Winton Marsalis and drifted in and out of classical and jazz.
Mayday says:
Hendrix was a maestro, his version of All Along the Watchtower is my favourite as is his version of the Star Spangled Banner at Woodstock.
As a young 15 year old it was one of the most amazing things I had seen or heard and to this day it takes me back to innocent yet wild times.
Black Dynamite says:
All these lists of "who's better" are so mundane. Is it impossible to remember a pioneer/great guitarist without trying to bring him down a peg by indulging us with your own personal music tastes?
I will be jamming Jimi tonight on my strat with the volume up. Salut Jimi wherever you are.
Black Dynamite.
Lilithia says:
All you people arguing in these comments is ridiculous. Fact of the matter is that he's dead. So get over it. Instead of trying to argue about who would have been better comparing those who are dead, why not go out and look for real talent that is STILL ALIVE?
PJ says:
I read the article suspiciously, expecting the passing of Hendrix to be pinned on Abbott.
As usual.
Shredder says:
Santana and Clapton are two of the greatest lead guitarists ever but their contributions to rock rhythm guitar are minimal. I wasn't around in the 60's but it was clear that back in the late 60's / early 70's music was more about the rhythmic groove than just blazing lead solos all over the place a la Van Halen or Satriani (two awesome guitarists in their own right). With the possible exception of the aforementioned E Van Halen, no one else has contributed as much to rock rhythm guitar as Hendrix, or the lead / rhythm combination that he pioneered. Stevie Ray Vaughan, the premier blues guitarists of the last 30 years or so, built on Hendrix's contributions but didn't really push them a lot further. In short, don't just think about lead guitar all the time - rhythm is what makes you as a guitarist and Hendrix was an absolute master of it and one of the few rock guitarists at that time who could transition seamlessly between lead melodies and rhythmic strumming.

Three Giants in Children's LiteratureThree important children's book awards were announced by the American Library Association on January 26, 2009: Newbery, Caldecott and Coretta Scott King Awards. Coretta Scott King was well-known as the wife of Martin Luther King, Jr., and in her own right as an important figure in the peace and social justice movements during the latter part of the 20th Century.
Randolph Caldecott, an Englishman, was already a successful artist in the media of oils, watercolors, sculptures, cartoons, sketches, and book illustrations, when Edmund Evans asked him to illustrate two children's books for Christmas in 1878. The House that Jack Built and The Diverting History of John Gilpin became immediate successes, transforming the world of children's books. For the next eight years, Caldecott illustrated two books each Christmas season. Children eagerly awaited these books because of the humor, action and detail of the illustrations. Caldecott is credited with inventing the modern children's picture book that showed action flowing from picture to picture and page to page, creating the effect of continuous movement prefiguring modern day animation.
John Newbery, another Englishman, lived from 1713-1765. He was the first publisher to specialize in children's books and to take care that the books were delightful as well as instructional. A Little Pretty Pocket-Book by John Newbery is considered the first children's book, because it was written specifically for children. It consists of simple rhymes for each letter of the alphabet and was sold with either a ball or a pincushion, depending on the gender of the child. Many of the books written or published by Newbery may seem preachy by today's standards, but 18th Century children greatly enjoyed these books for their lively stories and quality illustrations at affordable prices.
The 2009 Newbery winner is The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman; the Caldecott winner is The House in the Night by Susan Marie Swanson; illustrated by Beth Krommes; the Coretta Scott King author winner is We are the Ship: The Story of Negro League Baseball by Kadir Nelson; and the Coretta Scott King illustrator winner is The Blacker the Berry by Joyce Carol Thomas; illustrated by Floyd Cooper.

It's That Time of Year AgainThe library doesn't have IRS Form 2290 "Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax Return" or the French version, Form 2290 (FR) "Declaration d'Impot sur l'Utilisation des Vehicules Lourds sur les Routes". And, we don't have Form 5307 "Application for Determination for Adopters of Master or Prototype or Volume Submitter Plans" (I'm sure that makes sense to someone) or Form 8302 "Direct Deposit of Tax Refund of $1 Million or More".
What the library does have, is a good supply of the basic federal and state forms and instructions and some other not so basic, but unfortunately necessary, forms such as Schedule EIC "Earned Income Credit", Schedule SE "Self-Employment", 1040-ES "Estimated Tax", 4868 "Application for Automatic Extension", 8606 "Nondeductible IRAs" and 8863 "Education Credits". You can go to the IRS site, http://www.irs.gov/formspubs/ or the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, http://www.dor.state.wi.us/html/formpub.html to download other specific tax forms you may need.
Once again, the library is taking appointments for AARP Tax Assistance in the Wauwatosa Civic Center and Library Firefly Room. Senior citizens in need of tax return preparation assistance should call the Information Desk at 471-8485 to make an appointment. Trained AARP volunteers will be available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from February 4th through April 15th.

Andrew WyethAndrew Newell Wyeth died January 16th , 2009 at the age of 91. One of the most popular and significant artists of the 20th century, he was known for his paintings of the land and people in his hometown of Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania and around his summer home in Cushing, Maine.
Wyeth was part of an artistic family. His father, N.C. Wyeth, was a notable artist and illustrator. Andrew learned art from his father and grew up with a love and appreciation for nature and his rural surroundings. His sisters, Henriette and Carolyn were also artists, as is his son, Jamie Wyeth.
Wyeth maintained his realistic painting style throughout his life. His paintings, mostly in watercolor and egg tempera, are characterized by their technical brilliance, stark images, subtle colors and recognizable subjects. The Olson Farm in Maine is the setting for his most famous painting, "Christina's World". "The Mill", a group of 18th century buildings purchased by Wyeth, and the Kuerners and their farm in Pennsylvania appear often in his work. Helga Testorf, Karl Kuerner's Prussian-born caretaker, is the subject of 247 paintings that Wyeth secretly painted between 1971-1985.
Despite the popular appeal of his paintings, his work has been criticized for being stagnant and more like illustration than art. Learn more about Andrew Wyeth and his art. There are two original paintings on display in art museums in the Milwaukee area; "Afternoon", in the Milwaukee Art Museum and "Water Turtle", in Marquette's Haggerty Museum of Art. You can also find a number of Wyeth's paintings included in the library's online Art Museum Image Gallery. View high resolution images and get information about his work including title, date created, location, owner, dimensions and material and techniques used. The library also has a good collection of books available for checkout. The following are of special note:

Placer County added its voice Tuesday to a growing chorus of counties calling for adequate, secure funding to handle parolees and lower-risk criminal offenders who will be shifted from state to county responsibility beginning this week.
Known as public safety realignment, the program is shifting to counties greater responsibility for handling many adult parolees and lower-risk criminals who have been the state's responsibility in the past. Public safety realignment helped the state balance its budget while complying with a U.S. Supreme Court decision in May that requires the state to reduce overcrowding in its prisons.
Placer County anticipates assuming responsibility for approximately 30 new offenders per month beginning this week and is scheduled to receive an additional $3.1 million during the 2011-12 fiscal year to help cover the costs of its new responsibilities.
Placer County officials are concerned that state realignment funding for the 2011-12 fiscal year may be inadequate to fully cover the county's new costs and that state officials could deal with future budget challenges by taking realignment funding away from counties and using it for other purposes. A constitutional ballot measure would protect against funding raids while clarifying state and county responsibilities and expectations for the public. It would also ensure counties have the tools to be successful in protecting the public.
"I know that Placer County's public safety agencies will do an outstanding job handling their new responsibilities," said Supervisor Jack Duran. "However, I am very concerned over how the state is giving counties new responsibilities without providing a reliable, long-term funding source."
Supervisor Duran represents the Board of Supervisors on the advisory committee that is preparing the county's long-term plan for implementing realignment.
"Placer County has done a great job to date dealing with the challenges created by the state budget crisis, but state officials continue to put us in a difficult position by giving us new responsibilities without adequate financial resources to deal with them," said board Vice Chair Jennifer Montgomery.
Last week, Gov. Edmund G. Brown Jr. pledged his support for efforts to provide counties with reliable realignment funding, including a possible statewide ballot measure. The California State Association of Counties is considering sponsoring an initiative if the California Legislature does not get behind the governor's call for a ballot measure that would seek to provide guaranteed realignment funding to counties.
Any ballot measure on realignment funding would likely be on the November 2012 ballot.
The Placer County Board of Supervisors has not taken a position on proposals to place a ballot measure before the state's voters.
Board members and the county budget team emphasized during 2011-12 budget hearings that public safety realignment is creating new strains on the county budget. During budget workshops in August, the board bolstered county budget reserves and contingency funds by more than $5.5 million, gaining more flexibility in dealing with realignment, other potential state budget impacts and possible revenue fluctuations.
"I think it's going to be a huge challenge," County Executive Officer Thomas M. Miller told board members during a realignment discussion in July.
Placer County anticipates that realignment costs could exceed state funding by at least $1.7 million or more over the first two years. If the influx of criminal offenders cannot be appropriately managed at the county jail in Auburn, the county would need to move as quickly as possible to open the new jail being built at the Bill Santucci Justice Center in Roseville. First-year costs for the Roseville jail are projected to be $42 million: $14 million in one-time start-up costs and $28 million in annual operating expenses.
"In any event, as public safety is paramount, we need to move forward cautiously and strategically in making any decision on utilizing this resource," Supervisor Duran said.
Placer County's plan for implementing realignment is being drafted by a state-mandated group called the Community Corrections Partnership Advisory Committee (CCP) and its Executive Committee.
The chair of both committees is county Chief Probation Officer Marshall C. Hopper. The Advisory Committee includes representatives from several county departments and offices: the Board of Supervisors, Probation, the District Attorney's Office, Public Defender, Sheriff's Office, Health and Human Services and County Executive Office. It also has representatives from the Placer County Superior Court, Placer County Office of Education, local police agencies, community-based organizations and crime victims.
Placer County currently is responsible for about 5,200 offenders and adult parolees.
State officials estimate Placer County will be responsible for an additional 429 offenders and adult parolees on a typical day when the program is fully operational in four years.
Realignment will shift to county responsibility offenders who are classified by the state as nonviolent, non-serious and non-sex offenders if they are sentenced after Oct. 1. In addition, offenders who meet the same criteria will be supervised locally, rather than by the state parole system if they are released from state prison after Oct. 1.
Violent offenders currently in state prison or under the supervision of state parole officers will continue to be the responsibility of the state, as will individuals who commit violent crimes in the future who are sentenced to state prison.

text: I believe the rule you are reffering to actually reads the weir of the trap can not be above the vent pipe opening. The reason is to prevent siphonage of the trap. This doesn't apply to water closets as the trap is above the vent and actually relies to a certain degree on the siphoning action to suck water from the trap. The ballcock then ensures a trap seal. The answer to your other questions depends largely on the code that has jurisdiction in your area. According to the UPC all fixtures are for the most part individually.

Triumph's all-new Thunderbird is bravely aimed at taking on Harley in the US, but in terms of spec, quality, performance and price looks the best-equipped rival ever to do just that. It performs well, handles better, is beautifully built and has all the cruiser goodies you could wish for. But if we have to be critical, it's a bit derivative ...

Cute pockets and an awesome fit for a small waist! I have a very hard time finding jeans that don't gap at the waist. These fit me perfectly. I would suggest finding your size at the store and then shop online. December 16, 2013
Great jeans One of my favorite pair of jeans. It has a great mid rise fit and it fits great in the hips. I would recommend them for anyone with a little bit of curves in the hips. December 14, 2013
Great fit Great fit. They hug you in all of the right places and fit true to size. October 21, 2013
jlinn By far my favorite pair of jeans thus far!! I love the color and the fit!! March 17, 2013
Comfy and Cute The piecing on the back pockets sets these jeans apart from most, makes them a little bit different. I love the wash and the stretch, the 2% spandex gives them a little more stretch than the normal 1% but not as much as the cotton/poly/spandex blends. All in all, I've found a new favorite pair of jeans! February 22, 2013
