No. 92,154
STATE OF KANSAS, ex rel.,
D.S.M., JR., and H.M.M.,
Minor Children Under the Age of Eighteen,
1. Issues not raised and arguments not made before the district court generally cannot be addressed on appeal.
2. The rational basis test has traditionally been applied where equal protection challenges have been brought against social and economic legislation.
3. For a statute to pass constitutional muster under the rational basis standard for equal protection, it must meet a two-part test: (1) It must foster legitimate goals, and (2) the means chosen by the legislature to achieve such goals must bear a rational relationship to the goals.
4. The reasonable basis or rational basis test is violated only if the statutory classification rests on grounds wholly irrelevant to the achievement of the State's legitimate objective. The state legislature is presumed to have acted within its constitutional power even if the statute results in some inequality. Under this test, a statutory discrimination will not be set aside if any state of facts reasonably may be conceived to justify it.
5. Parents are under a legal duty to maintain their legitimate minor children, the obligation being sometimes spoken of as one under the common law and sometimes as a matter of natural right and justice.
6. Where a preexisting legal obligation of support of the dependent is established, there is no constitutional impediment to the State seeking reimbursement from the responsible family members of the reasonable costs of support and maintenance of a child for the duration of his or her placement outside the family home, where such uniform costs can be identified and segregated out from nonallowable costs, allocated amongst similarly situated dependents in a reasonable manner, and where the responsible relatives' liability is subject to reduction according to their reasonable ability to pay.
7. K.S.A. 38-1512 and K.S.A. 39-718b do not violate equal protection mandates because the legislative goals of mandating parental support for children are legitimate and the scheme for recoupment of expenditures under these statutes bears a rational relationship to these valid legislative goals.
8. Absent a particularized and concrete injury due to overbreadth of the statutes being challenged, a plaintiff has no standing to mount an equal protection challenge based upon such overbreadth.
Appeal from Sedgwick District Court; WILLIAM SIOUX WOOLLEY, judge. Opinion filed May 27, 2005. Affirmed.
Jim Lawing, of Wichita, for appellant.
Randy M. Barker, of Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services, for appellees.
Before GREENE, P.J., CAPLINGER and BUSER, JJ.
GREENE, J.: Carley F. Mealey, natural mother of D.S.M., Jr., and H.M.M., appeals the district court's judgment upholding the constitutionality of Kansas statutes allowing the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitative Services (SRS) to recoup from a parent of reintegrated children the expenses for care of that parent's children while in out-of-home placement. We affirm.
Factual and Procedural Background
Mealey's children were adjudged children in need of care (CINC) and were placed in SRS custody from December 3, 1999, until March 31, 2001. Mealey did not appeal the CINC decision. In May 2000, SRS filed a petition against Mealey seeking recoupment of expenses based upon the Kansas Child Support Guidelines (KCSG). In January 2001, SRS filed an amended petition for reimbursement of the actual amount of the children's expenses while they were in SRS custody, totaling $56,602 as of that date, plus $2,177 per month per child thereafter.
Mealey argued at trial that the SRS expenses were not reasonably incurred because the children were not properly found to be in need of care. The trial court properly refused to address this issue since Mealey did not timely appeal the CINC finding. Mealey also argued that the medical expenses were not reasonable because SRS did not submit the children's medical bills to the health insurance company where Mealey had coverage for the children after she provided the health insurance information to SRS. Finally, Mealey claimed that the SRS action to recover costs violated the Equal Protection Clause of the United States Constitution. The trial court entered judgment in favor of SRS in the amount of $27,996.54, plus interest, but did not make any findings of fact or conclusions of law on the issue of the constitutionality of the CINC recoupment statutes. Mealey timely appealed.
On the initial appeal, SRS admitted during oral argument that the usual procedure for determining what a parent should pay for care of a child in SRS's custody is based on the KCSG and the parent's income. State ex rel. D.S.M. v. Mealey (Mealey I), Case No. 89,314, unpublished opinion filed July 3, 2003, slip op. at 6,. This court found that if this procedure had been followed, Mealey would have been responsible for approximately $8,000 rather than the $27,996.54, plus interest, that the trial court awarded. Mealey I, slip op. at 6. The court briefly addressed Mealey's constitutional claims, but ultimately concluded that the absence of findings of fact and conclusions of law precluded review of this issue. Mealey I, slip op. at 5-7.
On remand, Mealey argued that the CINC recoupment statutes were unconstitutional under the rational basis test for equal protection. In addressing this issue, the trial court stated:
"Mrs. Mealey argues that the statutes which provide for SRS's ability to seek reimbursement violate the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution, specifically that the CINC statutes arbitrarily burden one specific class, that being the parents of CINC children, with the cost of public assistance and that the State should bear those costs.
"The first issue to address is whether the duty imposed upon Mrs. Mealey bears a rational relationship to the accomplishment of the State's purpose, that is, the care of children in need of care. The Court of Appeals has already addressed this issue finding the statutes meet the rational basis test. To the extent the Court of Appeals did not make those findings, this Court finds the statutes meet the rational basis test for the reasons stated in the record."
The trial court entered judgment in favor of SRS in the amount of $8,064 after finding that a parent cannot be ordered to pay more than the amount that would be set under K.S.A. 38-1595 and that its previous award of $27,996.54 was in error. Mealey again appeals, challenging the constitutionality of the CINC recoupment statutes.
Standard of Review
The determination of whether a statute violates the Constitution is a question of law over which appellate courts have unlimited de novo review. Mudd v. Neosho Memorial Regional Med. Center, 275 Kan. 187, 197, 62 P.3d 236 (2003).
Did the District Court Err in Upholding the Constitutionality of Kansas CINC Recoupment Statutes, K.S.A. 39-718b and K.S.A. 38-1512?
Mealey argued to the district court that Kansas recoupment statutes, specifically K.S.A. 38-1512 and K.S.A. 39-718b, violate equal protection mandates because they lack a rationally-based legitimate state interest. On appeal, Mealey argues that the "strict scrutiny" standard rather than the rational basis standard applies and that the statutes have not been shown necessary to serve a compelling state interest and are not narrowly drawn to do so. Mealey summarizes her argument on appeal as follows:
"[P]arents whose children are reintegrated into their homes after an intervention by the State cannot support reunification of the family if SRS takes from them the financial means they need to raise and educate those children after they have temporarily been in state custody. Since state policy under K.S.A. 38-1501 is to serve children's interests, and the 14th Amendment guarantees that a mother's interest in her relationship with her children is a fundamental liberty, only in rare cases should recovery of the costs of Kansas' care of children program allow SRS to seek reimbursement from a parent for that program's expenses."
At the outset we must determine which of the two equal protection standards applies, the strict scrutiny test or the rational basis test. Both in her initial challenge and on remand, Mealey argued that the rational basis test applied; at no time prior to this appeal did Mealey urge the application of a strict scrutiny test. It is well settled that issues not raised and arguments not made before the district court cannot generally be addressed on appeal. See Board of Lincoln County Comm'rs v. Nielander, 275 Kan. 257, 268, 62 P.3d 247 (2003). Moreover, we conclude that the rational basis test is the proper measure of equal protection under these circumstances. The rational basis test has traditionally been applied where equal protection challenges have been brought against social and economic legislation. KPERS v. Reimer & Koger Assocs., Inc., 261 Kan. 17, 42, 927 P.2d 466 (1996). Mealey has not cited any authority applying the strict scrutiny test in the context of an equal protection challenge to recoupment statutes of this nature. For all of these reasons, we apply the traditional rational basis test here.
The constitutionality of a statute is presumed, all doubts must be resolved in favor of its validity, and before the statute may be stricken it must clearly appear that the statute violates the Constitution. In determining constitutionality, it is the court's duty to uphold a statute under attack rather than defeat it, and if there is any reasonable way to construe the statute as constitutionally valid, that should be done. State v. Engles, 270 Kan. 530, 531, 17 P.3d 355 (2001).
The concept of equal protection of the law is one which "'"emphasizes disparity in treatment by a State between classes of individuals whose situations are arguably indistinguishable."'" Mudd, 275 Kan. at 198. Under the rational basis test, however, "'a law is constitutional, despite some unequal classification of citizens, if the "classification bears some reasonable relationship to a valid legislative objective. [Citations omitted.]"'" Mudd, 275 Kan. at 198.
For a statute to pass constitutional muster under the rational basis standard, it must meet a two-part test: (1) It must foster legitimate goals, and (2) the means chosen by the legislature to achieve those goals must bear a rational relationship to those goals. Mudd, 275 Kan. at 198. Additionally, a party "'asserting the unconstitutionality of a statute under the rational basis standard has the burden to negate every conceivable basis which might support the classification.'" Mudd, 275 Kan. at 198.
"'The "reasonable basis" [or rational basis] test is violated only if the statutory classification rests on grounds wholly irrelevant to the achievement of the State's legitimate objective. The state legislature is presumed to have acted within its constitutional power even if the statute results in some inequality. Under the reasonable basis test, a statutory discrimination will not be set aside if any state of facts reasonably may be conceived to justify it.'" Injured Workers of Kansas v. Franklin, 262 Kan. 840, 847, 942 P.2d 591 (1997).
The State urges us to recognize the universal principle that parents have a duty to support their children. Indeed, Blackstone acknowledges that the duty of parents to provide for the maintenance of their children "is a principle of natural law;" an obligation "laid on them not only by nature herself, but by their own proper act, in bringing them into the world." 1 Blackstone, Commentaries *447. Our Supreme Court acknowledged this principle in Doughty v. Engler, 112 Kan. 583, 584, 211 Pac. 619 (1923), stating:
"By the great weight of judicial opinion in this country parents are under a legal duty, regardless of any statute, to maintain their legitimate minor children [citation omitted], the obligation being sometimes spoken of as one under the common law and sometimes as a matter of natural right and justice, and often accepted as a matter of course without the assignment of any reason."
The goals of the legislation subject to Mealey's challenge are well stated, and they both acknowledge and protect this universal principle. K.S.A. 38-1512(a)(4) states that "[n]othing in this section shall be construed to mean that any person shall be relieved of legal responsibility to support a child." K.S.A. 39-701 includes the following statement as a part of the express purposes of the act:
"It is not the policy of the state to discourage or interfere with the universally recognized moral obligations of kindred to provide, when possible, for the support of dependent relatives, but rather it is the policy of the state to assist the needy and where necessary, the relatives in providing the necessary assistance for dependents."
Applying the first prong of the rational basis test, it is clear to us that the statutes in question foster legitimate goals, i.e., they foster and protect the universal duty of parents to support their children. Applying the second prong of the test, we must determine whether the means chosen by the legislature bear a rational relationship to these legitimate goals. Mealey suggests that the recoupment statutes are overbroad, allow recoupment of expenses beyond those related to normal parental support, and otherwise are not related to any legitimate goal. Mealey argues that because of the financial burden placed on reintegrated families, the statutes actually serve to frustrate the stated legislative goal of assuring the care and custody of children in their own home, "as will best serve the [children's] welfare." See K.S.A. 38-1501.
In support of her argument in district court, Mealey cited a series of California authorities that were summarized as holding that "relative responsibility statutes have been invalidated when the government charges were not for support which the relative refused or failed to provide but for the cost of maintaining public institutions for public benefit." In re Jerald C., 187 Cal. Rptr. 562, 564, 654 P.2d 745 (1982), vacated by In re Jerald C., 36 Cal. 3d 1, 201 Cal. Rptr. 342, 678 P.2d 917 (1984). The State argues that these California authorities have been variously narrowed, moderated, or disapproved by the California Supreme Court in County of San Mateo v. Dell J., 46 Cal. 3d 1236, 1252, 252 Cal. Rptr. 478, 762 P.2d 1202 (1988), where the court held:
"[F]undamental principles of equal protection preclude a statutory scheme for reimbursement of public assistance from requiring a class of responsible relatives (here the parents) to alone bear the costs of confinement, treatment, rehabilitation or supervision of a dependent (here the minor) whose custody is removed from the family, voluntarily or pursuant to court order, in whole or in part for the benefit and protection of society. In contrast, where a preexisting legal obligation of support of the dependent is established, there is no constitutional impediment to the state seeking reimbursement from the responsible family members of the reasonable costs of support and maintenance of such dependent for the duration of his placement outside the family home, where such uniform costs can be identified and segregated out from nonallowable costs, allocated amongst similarly situated dependents in a reasonable manner, and where the responsible relatives' liability is subject to reduction according to their reasonable ability to pay."
Other states have upheld similar statutes against such equal protection challenges. See, e.g., Pandozy v. Murphy, 222 App. Div. 2d 145, 646 N.Y.S. 2d 400 (1996); Dupes v. Dept. of Health & Rehab. Serv., 536 So. 2d 311 (Fla. App. 1988).
Pursuant to the Kansas statutes under attack here, recoupment from a parent or guardian is permissible only for "assistance expended on the child's behalf" and is restricted to assistance to the child of said parent, while such parent is not himself or herself receiving assistance, and during months only where the parent has not been obligated to pay support under court order. See K.S.A. 39-718b(b)(1), (2), and (3). In addition to these statutory restrictions, SRS has a written policy that authorizes seeking reimbursement from a parent only in foster care cases in the amount which that parent would have paid if there had been a child support order under the KCSG. We note, as did the district court, that this policy is consistent with K.S.A. 38-1563(j) and K.S.A. 38-1595, which seem to contemplate (without clear application to 38-1512) that the KCSG should control determinations of support under the Kansas Code for Care of Children. Given all of these restrictions, we are persuaded that the scheme for recoupment under these statutes bears a rational relationship to the valid legislative goals. Moreover, Mealey has cited no authority wherein similar legislation has been stricken as constitutionally infirm due to equal protection mandates.
Finally, we recognize that SRS's amended petition against Mealey sought an amount beyond its written policy. Mealey was successful prior to remand, however, in restricting the amount of recoupment, and her constitutional challenge before us cannot attack the statutes on this basis. Even if we were to have concern regarding SRS's overzealous efforts in seeking a "hypothetical" optimum recoupment or concern regarding the overbreadth of these recoupment statutes, Mealey now lacks standing to attack the statutes for overbreadth given her success to date in achieving a reimbursement order restricted to that amount commensurate with her obligations under the KCSG. Absent an injury specifically due to overbreadth, Mealey can not establish a concrete and particularized injury in fact to justify standing for such a challenge. See Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 560, 119 L. Ed. 2d 351, 112 S. Ct. 2130 (1992); Lower v. Board of Dir. of Haskell County Cemetery Dist., 274 Kan. 735, 747-60, 56 P.3d 235 (2002).
We understand that an order of recoupment against parents of reintegrated children may present such a financial burden to such families as to jeopardize the success of reintegration. The legislature has determined, however, that recoupment under these circumstances is appropriate; absent constitutional infirmity, it is not within our purview to express any opinion on legislative policy.

For other recent discussion and questions, see the Global blocks talk page.
Global blocks are ways to prevent an account or IP address from editing all Wikimedia wikis, for a time or indefinitely.
There are requests to block or ban a user on all Wikimedia wikis every few months (more frequently in 2011?). Currently there is no available tool that can do this except for global IP blocks (see below), but this is being worked on.
In the meantime, a global block of an account can be requested - and either implemented as:
- a block by hand on all wikis where the account is active.
- temporarily implemented as a global lock until global account blocking is possible (though this is discouraged, except in extreme cases).
Global IP blocks
As of 2012, IP blocking is the only form of global blocking that is technically possible. The GlobalBlocking extension can block an IP address or range (maximum of /16 in IPv4, maximum of /4 in IPv6) from editing all Wikimedia projects except Meta, and is only available to Tiếp viên. These are logged in the Global block log.
Globally blocked IP addresses that cause disruption on Meta are locally blocked.
While exceptions exist, these are the guidelines:
- Global blocks should only be placed where a combination of page protection, local blocks, and other technical and non-technical measures would be ineffective, or inefficient.
- Global blocks may be placed on IP addresses:
- Who engage in widespread cross-wiki vandalism, where that cross-wiki vandalism would currently require the intervention of stewards (as opposed to allowing local communities to manage the vandalism).
- Who engage in cross-wiki spamming, where the user shows clear disregard for external link policies of the respective wikis.
- Who are otherwise blatantly disrupting multiple projects, and the local communities of those projects are unable to effectively manage the behaviour. This is not intended to cover "trolling" or similar behaviour.
- Which are open proxies being used abusively on multiple projects such as spamming links or forum spamming, and which are not being extensively used for legitimate purposes.
- Global blocks should be placed with the lowest expiry possible, while still remaining effective. All global blocks should have an expiry (none should be indefinite).
- Global blocks should, wherever practicable and sensible, be placed with the anonymous only flag on. Remember that even in this case account creation from the blocked address(es) is prevented.
- Global blocks will remove talk page access when the block is encountered.
Accounts which are "global IP block exempt" are exempted from these global blocks. They are still vulnerable to IP and IP range blocks made locally on individual wikis. To apply for global IP block exemption see Steward requests/Global permissions.
Local unblocking
Global IP blocks can be locally unblocked on specific wikis by any sysops on that wiki (Special:GlobalBlockWhitelist). Similarly, user accounts can be unblocked where they are caught within an IP block, such blocks can be overridden on the local wiki by granting a local IP block exemption (Special:UserRights).
Global user blocks
|This section is currently a draft.
Global blocking of users would be similar to that for IPs, but would apply to a username (and optionally its recent IP as well). A feature request to enable the GlobalBlocking extension for named accounts is under discussion.
Criteria should include:
- Causing trouble repeatedly far beyond any helpful contributions:
- Exhausting the patience of numerous wiki communities, and threatens to do so again.
- Alternating vandalism and trolling and/or other disruptive behavior with small amounts of good work.
- Doing something to make them unwanted on any project:
- Threatening or driving away contributors or others (for instance: harrassment, legal threats).
- Engaging in deep and carefully-planned harm: adding repeated forgeries and copyvios.
- Protecting wikis (and their communities) where the user is not blocked yet and which would be subject and consider themself damaged by future foreseeable actions of the user, while not being able to prevent them with local tools and processes.
General requirements that should all be met:
- Numerous wikis are involved.
- Multiple communities have imposed long term bans.
- User is likely to continue behaviour on other wikis when blocked locally.
Deciding on global blocks
|This section is currently a draft.
Requests or appeals should be made on the Global [un]block and [un]lock requests page.
A global ban should be discussed in its own RFC and mentioned widely on meta, and on all communities where the user is active in the local language. Notice should be given, at a minimum, wherever local bans are discussed - or on the village pump if no local process exists.

SAN ANDREAS - Searchers recovered a second set of human remains Friday and, using dental records, identified the skull found a day earlier as that of Cyndi Vanderheiden.
SAN ANDREAS - Searchers recovered a second set of human remains Friday and, using dental records, identified the skull found a day earlier as that of Cyndi Vanderheiden.
Both were found in spots identified by convicted serial killer Wesley Shermantine.
Paula Wheeler, the mother of 16-year-old Stockton girl Chevelle "Chevy" Wheeler, received a call from investigators telling her that along with a partial skull and bones, they also found on her a sweatshirt and lavender jacket.
The clothes matched what Chevy Wheeler wore the day she played hooky from Franklin High School with Shermantine, then 19. Paula Wheeler said she dropped her daughter off that day 27 years ago.
" 'Bye, mom, I love you," were the last words Wheeler heard from her daughter.
Shermantine, 45, prompted the search by sending letters to The Record and others from his cell on death row at San Quentin State Prison.
On Thursday, searchers located a skull and bones - not far from Friday's find - where Shermantine said he disposed of 25-year-old Clements woman Cyndi Vanderheiden. She was murdered in 1998.
Using dental records, officials said Friday that they believed the remains were those of Vanderheiden.
At a third location Friday, San Joaquin County sheriff's deputies brought in heavy equipment to excavate an abandoned well near Flood and Escalon-Bellota roads in a rural area east of Linden.
Shermantine identified that well as "Loren's Boneyard," named for his boyhood friend and former partner in crime, Loren Herzog. There could be 10 bodies deep in the old well, he has said. Digging at the site has yet to yield results.
In Calaveras County, the remains presumed to be Chevy Wheeler's were buried on a rocky hillside behind a castlelike home Shermantine's father built on Leonard Road, located a few twists and turns from San Andreas.
Officials have yet to officially identify Wheeler through DNA analysis. But the clothing description satisfies Paula Wheeler that her long-held dream of bringing home her daughter's remains are within reach.
"No, I wouldn't say sad," Wheeler said of her emotions in a phone interview from her home in Crossville, Tenn. "We've known she's been gone all this time. Now we can bring her home. It's not a sad day. It's a very happy day."
Deputy David Konecny of the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office said the crew at work on the old well near Linden will continue through the weekend, if that's what it takes.
They began the day using a backhoe. By midday, county Public Works had hauled in a massive excavator to begin scooping out a hole 50 to 75 feet deep. A farmhouse nearby is on private property surrounded by rolling grassland.
"It could take days," Konecny said of the digging. "It's a slow and tedious process."
Shermantine prompted the multiple searches from his death row cell by mailing maps and details in letters to The Record and, more recently, to Sacramento bounty hunter Leonard Padilla.
Shermantine and Herzog were arrested in 1999, ending what officials say was a killing spree spanning the 1980s and '90s. There may be 18 to 20 total victims, said county Deputy District Attorney Thomas Testa.
Shermantine admits abusing methamphetamine, which he said ruined his life.
But he maintains he did not kill anybody, only burying some victims for Herzog. A jury said otherwise and found Shermantine guilty of four murders. He was sent to San Quentin State Prison, where he remains today.
For his part, Herzog was found guilty of three of the murders and given a sentence of 78 years to life. That was overturned on appeal, and Herzog pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter.
He was paroled in 2010 but apparently committed suicide last month at age 46, learning that Shermantine had begun to reveal the burial places. Shermantine wanted Herzog back in prison and perhaps given a cell on death row.
Of "Loren's Boneyard," Shermantine wrote to Padilla in a Jan. 22 letter that the two friends one day were out coyote hunting. Herzog stopped their truck, pulled out a gas can and poured it down the well, he wrote.
"He used the five gallons, lit a fire and he was happy," Shermantine wrote. "He said it was something he had to get rid of."
Padilla said he agreed to pay Shermantine $33,000 if the information led to the remains. Padilla said he's learned over years in the hard-scrabble world of bounty hunting that cash is often a shortcut to breakthroughs.
Padilla is often ridiculed by law enforcement for his unorthodox tactics and love of the spotlight. He was kept far from the Linden dig Friday, along with reporters. He doubted they were digging in the correct place.
"I can tell you where the right well is - if you're interested," he shouted to a deputy stepping behind the crime scene boundary.
Back in Tennessee, Paula Wheeler said she and her husband, Raymond, are preparing a return trip to Stockton to collect Chevy Wheeler's remains. They plan to have them cremated.
They'll take them back to Tennessee and place them in an urn on their mantel, where they can talk to her. At first, Wheeler said she'll scold her daughter for cutting school that day.
"Then we'll love her to pieces," Wheeler said.

Long ago, icy glaciers pushed boulders into the soil of America's Northeast. New England farmers built 215,000 miles of stonewalls by hand through removing these stones from their fields, a distance greater than from the earth and the moon! These stonewalls became the folklore of poets like Robert Frost, but the labor of moving stones by hand pushed farmers westward. A fresh crop of rocks grows each spring because winter's freeze thaw cycles gradually force buried stones upward. Clearing rocks is never complete.
The founder of American Stonecraft, Gerald Croteau, fell in love with these archaeological stone ruins as a youth. He became an economist and founded American Stonecraft in his late 20s after seeing the inside of a fieldstone for the first time. He was amazed at what he had overlooked for so long. Diamond tools (being a relatively modern invention) revealed amazing colors, patterns, and geologies in the humble New England farm-gathered fieldstone that he wanted desperately to share!
As a professional economist, Croteau recognized an opportunity to focus on adding value to the hidden gems of fieldstone. He started the studio to transform sustainably-grown and freshly-harvested rocks from working farms into treasured heirlooms that can be brought indoors and used in the home for the fist time. Not only does this endeavor share geology that has never been seen before, but it helps support working farms, in turn preserving open space and protecting the stonewalls that are so iconic to our region.
Food Slabs begin as freshly "grown" fieldstones that American Stonecraft hand-harvests at working farms. Each rock is unique in shape and color, comprised of stone commonly called granite. Artisans craft each Food Slab from scratch in our Massachusetts studio using custom built tools. The stone is transformed from a dull rock into a piece of art with impossibly brilliant color. This color is not the result of an outside product or lacquer, but of skilled grinding and polishing, smoothing away all roughness up to a 10,000 grit. Food Slabs also retain the natural "live" edge from the stone's glacial tumbling. All Food Slabs are protected with a permanent food-safe seal for easy cleaning and to prevent staining. Farm-provenance is labeled on the underside of each Food Slab.
Approximately 16″ in diameter and 9 pounds. For scale, please consult the photo with a ruler shown next to the stone.
Variations in color tone should be expected. Fieldstones, being natural, also have minor, non-structural fissures, pocks, scratches, chips, and other superficial flaws that we affectionately call beauty marks.

Having only taken one toon to (what was then) max level on The Old Republic, I've been pleasantly surprised at how other class stories have been playing out.
I've just finished Chapter 2 on my Commando, which took far longer than I expected. Having only the Smuggler to go on, I expected Chapter 2 to last fairly short, with an interlude at an off planet location. The Commando's Chapter 2 disabused me of that notion, by finishing up in between Hoth and Belsavis.
It also surprised me for another reason: I got to see my entire team in action.
That was never really an option in the Smuggler class story, so seeing my entire team storm onto the ship during the Chapter 2 story was a pleasant surprise. And the end of that assault led to another surprise, which made it a bit hard on my next assignment.*
Still, I've found the stories in TOR to be enjoyable enough that I've been taking my time with them, enjoying each step of the way.
And now I'm looking Belsavis in the face; the one planet that I felt was never going to end.
I can now identify with how Lewis and Clark must have felt when they reached a high point in the Rocky Mountains, expecting a quick jaunt to the sea, and discovered that a huge mountain range --the Cascades-- lay before them. Every time I thought I was reaching the end of the Belsavis questline, lo and behold there was another area to clear out. Yes, the story was interesting, it was just spread out way too much.
That said, if you're playing a male smuggler, the ending to the class questline was very amusing. "I thought you hated each other," Corso said to me. So did I, but what do I know? Apparently not enough.
But that ending is far enough in the future that I'm starting to wonder whether it's not a bad idea to go work on that Inquisitor questline for a while instead....
*Sorry, I'm not going to give away any spoilers. They aren't big --like end of the Knight's Chapter 1 big-- but it did have an impact on me.

A moment in Philmusic.com's History: The site domain was registered in December 1996. We are at most, probably one of the longest running Philippine websites around!
have you tried the 50watts version? I am planning to buy the amp but financially limited to the 50watts version only. I am hoping its loud enough to cut through a live band.edit:Just indoor live band practice
I have the Katana 100 112 and it sounds amazing. Definitely the best solid-state amp at its price point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
wondering about this too! hopefully owners will post their reviews!
Check out the "sounds like dimebag without busting the bank" video by rabea massad. He used one and sounded really good. Considering he used a boss metal zone for his dirt pedal.
ERRATUM: 1. The video is titled "sound like dimebag BY busting the bank"2. The amp they used was the Boss WAZA amp head. Not the Katana.My bad. I guess I got too excited after watching that video.Cheers!
Any local dealers?Price range?

Roll Over, They Told Em, But It Looks Much Better Today!
For me, as a kid in the 50s, South St. Paul was always known for the stockyards. The aroma briefly filled the air going through town. I would plug my nose and point at my sister in the back seat, and a fight usually broke out. South St. Paul also had its share of car clubs in the 50s, including the Medallions, in which Kirby Lawrence was an original member. There was nothing stock about the cars in the yards of these members who at the time were typically considered youth on the loose.
In 1956, Kirby was one of the lucky ones who were able to scrape up enough money for a brand-new car. He purchased a 56 Chevy hardtop, and, within 2 years, the car received a mild custom treatment. Years after that car disappeared, Kirby purchased another 56 and recreated his first new car with this particular ride reaching the pages of R&C in February 1991. Its quite a feat for a rod and custom guy to recreate one of his early customs and realize what he did is timeless enough to make the grade more than 30 years later. So when Kirby purchased this 40 Ford coupe, he wanted to make sure the look would also be timeless.
In 1991, Kirby purchased the 40 Ford that was, in his words, decent body, mechanically shot! He performed a rebuild on all the important functional mechanisms and felt the car made a nice driver. Kirby updated the chassis with a Mustang II IFS by Twin City Rod & Custom, while a parallel leaf setup from Chassis Engineering was added to the rear. A disc/drum brake system was also added. A tried and true Chevy 327 built by Mike McVeigh was mounted to a Turbo 350 built by Metro Transmission and placed between the framerails with a Gennie Shifter. Soon a trip to Johns Auto Trim put John Zechbauer to work stitching a tan tweed interior for a clean look to match the look of the VDO dash, which was now sans knobs. After adding a Sony stereo for cruisin proficiency, Kirby felt he was ready to hit the road.
Unfortunately, just before the 1992 Back to the 50s in St. Paul, Kirby and the car were involved in an accident, and he soon found himself upside down. Kirby was not sure what happened, but witnesses immediately explained what happened. Roll over! they told him. The throttle stuck and after hitting the curb putting him sideways, he soon found himself rolling over. The strength of the car left him with only minor injuries, though the car was in critical but stable condition.
The 40 coupe now had several kinks in its armor, in fact, enough to require a new body and doors. A match was found and the donor summoned to Kirbys garage. The new body was prepped and sprayed by Mike Nesler and Tim Rand with a special mix of basecoat/clearcoat in PPG Ditzler medium blue enamel. After dismantling the wreck, Kirby found his newly restored mechanicals still in perfect condition. Now it was simply a case of swapping the bodies and getting back on the road.
Kirby credits the strength of his 40 Ford for keeping him in one piece. His wife, Pat, also has a warm spot in her heart for the car, because she also has a warm spot in her heart for Kirby. The result is a happy couple and an awesome coupe. So Kirby, next time you hear Chuck Berry twangin those famous sounds on his guitar, sing it like this:
Gonna ride in one thats better
than the cheap little cars of today.
Its a rockin little 40
That he drives on the weekends and plays.
Roll over, they told him
But it looks much better today.

I am a sports fan! In particular I enjoy college football and my beloved Clemson Tigers. If you follow college football you know the level of competition, the high coaches� salaries, the media attention, the fundraising from the booster clubs, the recruiting game and the rabid fan base that demands excellence.
You also know that the successful programs are the ones that have lofty shared goals and a plan and resources to accomplish those goals. I want my team to have high goals. I want them to strive to be number one -- the national champion, not just being in the top 50. In most cases, becoming the national champion in college football cannot happen immediately; it takes wins along the way to reach it.
National champion teams are the ones that have great leaders in coaches that get the most out of their athletes and develop talent, they have a comprehensive recruiting plan that lures great athletes, they have a successful booster club that provides financial resources, their facility plan is designed to keep their team competitive with others and they usually just have some good luck. The ball bounces the right way. They were in the right place at the right time.
I use this metaphor because I believe Gaston County is in the right place at the right time. We have a great opportunity to lead Gaston County to prosperity, growth and a high quality of life. But like a college football team, we need to set out to be the best, obtain wins, and take home the grand prize. To do this we must develop success and set goals in key areas of our community. These �building blocks� will serve as our �game plan� to succeed at being the community we know we can be. Let�s take a look at seven areas in which we must focus:
Education: Gaston County will be in the Top 10 school systems in N.C. for educational attainment
Healthy community: Gaston County will be in the top 10 in N.C. of healthiest counties
Leadership development: Gaston County will build a broad based network of community leaders who have enhanced their leadership abilities and skills through continuing education, shared perspectives and community involvement in order to enable them to work toward solutions in the public interest.
Travel and tourism: Through the promotion and marketing of its tremendous assets, Gaston County will grow occupancy tax receipts by a minimum of 5 percent per year.
Transportation: Each city and town in Gaston County will be connected with each other and the entire Charlotte region
Job creation: Through industrial recruitment, business retention, and commercial and non-industrial facilitation, Gaston County will have a premier business climate and an unemployment rate of 1 percent less than that of N.C. and 1,700 net new jobs created each year
Center city development: Every city and town in Gaston County will have a vibrant downtown with thriving emerging businesses and people in the streets.
Just like a college football team, no individual can do it alone. An entire program must be involved and share the same goal. Elected officials, business leaders, non-profit organizations, educators, clergyman, students and families just like college administrators, coaches, players, fans and booster club members must all do their part to ensure success.
Our goals are not for the benefit of a particular political party, race or economic status; instead they are for all of Gaston County and are designed to help us become the best place to live, work and play.
Let me encourage you to be a part of a winning team. We will keep score on our success.
Spot the ball! I will see you in the end zone!
Kimbrell is President/CEO of Gaston Regional Chamber of Commerce.

Two Thumbs Up for Springpad! (A Review & Tutorial)
Springpad has plenty of templates for organizing the most common work-related tasks such as shopping, recipe planning, grocery lists and so on, but users can easily create their own custom lists of tasks. You can also write notes and save them in folders which you name. I started a folder called "Lorine's Blogs" and in it I keep a list of blog post titles and ideas - topics I might want to write about. I also write some of my blog posts and save them on Springpad rather than compose them directly in Blogger (which is the blog format I use). This also allows hubs to proof-read my posts before I publish them.
Hubs also writes a genealogy blog (Ancestors At Rest) but he likes me to proof-read his posts before he publishes them. It wasn't working well for him to save them as drafts in Blogger, because I couldn't make changes if I wanted or needed to. So now he uses a folder in my Springpad where he writes and saves his blog posts and I go in and add suggestions or correct typos.
How does this work for genealogy? I'm sure there are many ways I haven't thought of but here are a few I'm working on:
1. You can easily create a research to-do list in the Check List area. Then when you are at a Library or Family History Centre or even a local museum you can easily open Springpad and look to see what's on your list of items. Did I mention you can get the Springpad app for your mobile phone or iPad? That allows you to access your work from any of your devices.
2. In the Task List area you can create a "Task" for each ancestor you are currently researching. Enter some basic facts (birth, marriage, death) as well as location and time periods for that ancestor, and add a point form list of their spouse and children and you have a mini-genealogy group sheet at your fingertips. I like to list all the census records that my ancestor was alive for - and beside each year I tick off if I have found them (and where). That allows me to very quickly determine if I need to have a search in a specific census year or years.
Inside "All My Stuff" you see Flagged Stuff (items you have flagged) and Alerts (items for which you've set a reminder). Then you see Types and under that are your choices of Notes, Tasks and Check List. Simply click on one and start writing or open a previously saved item.
The last section is Tags. This is where you will see tags (keywords) that you have added to your notes which help you find and organize what you've added. One of my Tags is "Sharing Memories" This is a tag I will add to any Sharing Memories posts I write and save in Springpad. By clicking on that tag, all my posts tagged with that phrase will display for me. I've tagged several of my notes with the words "Interviews" and "RootsTech" Clicking on either of those keywords brings up all notes or tasks for that tag.
There's much more you can do with Springpad but let me leave you with this brief overview. As I play around with it over the next few weeks I should be able to write more about this productivity tool.
It'd be great if readers could jump in with their own ideas or uses for Springpad for genealogy.
Non-Disclaimer: I really like Springpad and receive nothing from the company for telling you about it. In fact they've never heard of me and don't even know I'm writing this review/tutorial!

I would love to know, when you have used the application more, how it is different, the same, better, or worse than Evernote.

So would I. While I've used Evernote for a long while and find it really useful, I'm always open to new software apps.

After reading your review I immediately checked it out and decided to download it. I've been using Evernote for a lot of my genealogy notes, but this looks a little bit more useful. I must admit that my iPhone and iPad have certainly made my genealogy research so much easier. I use MacFamily Tree and can carry my entire database around with me. Fantastic.
- Audrey Collins said...
Thanks for pointing this out. It certainly looks interesting and my initial impressions are that it is fairly intuitive to use. I love new toys, especially free ones!
- Genealogy Blogger said...
I am finding more and more genealogical uses for Springpad the more I play with it. I plan on writing another blog post about other features ASAP. I really like the suggestion about comparing it to Evernote and hope to write about that too.
I'd love to hear from readers who use either Evernote or Springpad with their impressions or lists of pros and cons! You can write me at olivetreegenealogy(AT)gmail(DOT)com
- a3Genealogy, Kathleen Brandt said...
I love reasons to procrastinate. My schedule for the weekend included reviewing Evernote. But since I don't use Evernote or Springpad, I think I will want to launch one AFTER I read comparisons. Thanks for introducing Springpad to us!
Coming from Jenn's mention of our post on Climbing My Family Tree... I am an APP WHORE! I swear they have saved me so much time, though I am always looking at my phone :D I had used 2Do for a while, but it wasn't for me... then I have been using Paperless... but this... Springpad... just downloaded it based on your blog! Can't wait to check it out & try it! Thanks!
- Cheri Hopkins aka You Go Girl #2 & Sweetwater Sherry said...
THANKS FOR THE GREAT TUTORIAL. You should be doing this for the website. It was great help to get me started as I have been looking at Springpad, just wasn't sure about taking it on until I read your blog post. Thanks again!
- Rebecca said...
Thank you for introducing me to Springpad and Evernote. They both sound like something I can use.
Just found your blog today and it has clued me in on a couple of things I will want to look into soon.
I am a farmer's wife who has several hobbies, one of these is genealogy. I bought an ipad recently in part so I could take my genealogy with me.

Shane Vereen didn't always get The Patriot Way. Now in his third year, and first as a significant contributor, the multi-purpose back has earned the trust of his coaches and teammates to become one of the Pats' most dangerous players
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — It's one of the signs on a wall deep inside Gillette Stadium that Patriots players see every day. The message isn't that unusual. They probably heard a version of it either in college or in high school, and they probably didn't notice this particular sign upon first arriving at the team's facility:
This brand of toughness is a must for Patriots players. It's not just an intrinsic trait that some players walk in with; it is hardened and reinforced every day. Either you develop it, or you won't be wearing a Patriots uniform for very long.
Running back Shane Vereen admits—and his coaches privately would agree—he didn't have it as a rookie in 2011. He's always had blazing speed, and he's one of the most natural pass catchers you'll ever find at his position. But he made a choice along the way to get with the program, and that newfound toughness has transformed him into one of the Patriots' most dangerous players as they begin their playoff run Saturday night against the Colts.
"It was a challenge I made to myself, because I saw the way we play here," Vereen said earlier this week in one of the tunnels at Gillette Stadium. "I had never been a part of a team that is so physically tough—and mentally tough. Once I got that hint, and decided that I needed to be tougher, that's kind of when things mentally started changing for me."
* * *
Spending a season under Bill Belichick's tutelage is a mental gauntlet designed to build the inner drive of a champion. If the media and fans are pumping your tires after a game, expect the opposite treatment in film sessions. You can't do anything right. It's amazing you've even gotten this far in your career. (In case you're wondering, quarterback Tom Brady gets it the worst.) At practice, when you're at your weakest after an arduous grind, or in a film session, just when you're ready to doze off, Belichick will challenge you with some obscure situation that has presented itself no more than three times in the history of professional football. You better get it right, lest teammates realize they can't count on you. If not, good luck getting reps in practice.
And Brady isn't always on the receiving end of such criticism. You might as well curl up in a corner if you haven't mastered the exact footwork and the defensive reads needed to gain his trust. You're going to hear it from the walking computer at quarterback—loudly—and you're also not going to play.
Regarding physical toughness, there is but one rule in Foxborough: if you're not on the field, it's as if you were never even there. It might sound cruel, but how else could the Patriots have gone 11-5 while enduring the loss of Brady in 2008? How about finishing 12-4 this season, despite losing Pro Bowl-level performers such as Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo, Sebastian Vollmer, Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez and Brandon Spikes? You don't lament departures. If you act like they were never there, then there's nothing to miss.
Pity, then, Vereen, who came in as a second-round pick in 2011, injured a hamstring early in camp and was barely heard from again: he appeared in five games for a total of 26 snaps. In 2012, Vereen again missed part of camp and the first three games with a foot injury. He rallied to show glimpses of his talent, especially with two receiving touchdowns in a playoff victory over the Texans, but he was still on the outside looking in.
Then everything started falling in place in 2013. Not only did the Patriots let go versatile back Danny Woodhead in free agency, Vereen remained healthy throughout camp and got the necessary reps with Brady and the offensive line. He also showed an increased willingness to run inside; the 5-10, 200-pound back was a sprinter in college and he always preferred to attack the edges on the gridiron, hoping to find open space.
But he toughened up between the tackles and became something more than just a third-down back. He even had a chance to fill the very large shoes of the versatile Kevin Faulk, the glue of the Pats' Super Bowl-winning teams who retired after the 2011 season. The season opener against the Bills was the first indication that Vereen's role was changing. After Stevan Ridley was benched in the second quarter for fumbling, Vereen finished with a career-high 101 rushing yards on 14 carries, and seven catches for 58 yards.
After the game, however, the Patriots discovered that Vereen had broken a small bone in his left wrist and needed surgery. His season was in jeopardy. Again.
"I was pretty upset about it and kind of hurt by it," Vereen says now.
* * *
Though injured players might cease to exist in Belichick's eyes, that doesn't mean they can't come back from oblivion. Shortly after Vereen had surgery in early September, Belichick designated him to return. (Teams can tab one player on IR to come back before the season ends, though he can't practice for six weeks and he must miss eight games.)
"Bill and I just had a talk, and he told me that was the decision," Vereen recalls. "He said I can come back and I should be fine when I come back—and it's a rare injury, something they haven't dealt with a lot. But they were confident of an entire comeback, and that I could be effective."
Has he ever.
For the season, the 24-year-old has 91 total touches for 635 yards and four touchdowns. To be more accurate, that's for half the season, just eight games. His value will only increase in the playoffs. Vereen has become the "matchup player" in the Patriots' offense, and the most important red-zone weapon after Gronkowski was lost for the season to a torn ACL. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels will line up Vereen all over the field, and Brady will send him in motion with the goal of getting a linebacker to cover him. There are few who are up to the task.
"The good thing about that is when I'm spread out, and when I'm able to be matched up [against a linebacker], I can do a multitude of things," Vereen says. "I'm not just running one route. I'm not just running these routes and that's it. And so because of that and the variety, regardless of who's out there ... the fact that we're able to mix in so many routes and combinations keeps them off balance, so it helps me out tremendously."
Vereen wouldn't be where he is now if he hadn't gained Brady's trust. If Brady can't count on you, you're not going to play much, and you're certainly not getting the ball when you do. Earning his confidence is one of the toughest things for a young player in the Patriots' offense to achieve. But it's an absolute must. It had long been a work in progress for Vereen, probably because he missed so many reps in his first two seasons, but the chemistry finally blossomed this season.
"We're better now than we have been since I've been here," Vereen says, "just as far as being on the same page, just knowing each other, knowing what he's looking for; and the same with him, he knows what I'm looking for. It's growing a lot. And it's going to get better and I'm looking forward to that, too."
"We communicate all the time about what I'm looking for and what I need from him," Tom Brady says. "He's earned that trust."
But Vereen might be underselling himself, as Brady often will seek him out for input on plays.
"He's got a great understanding for [the mental side of the game], so when someone communicates that they know exactly what you're talking about, and they know how to do it, then you trust them. He has a high football IQ," Brady says. "We communicate all the time about what I'm looking for and what I need from him. He's earned that trust."
He's earned that trust.
There is no higher praise to be had from Brady. And if that glowing report means Belichick will pick on Vereen in an upcoming film session, well, he now has the toughness to handle it.

The month in review - April 2009
1. Nugget turned four! Huh! No longer the mother of "four-under-four". We had a wonderful time celebrating. He had a Spiderman themed party and there were a sea of Spidermen playing pass-the-parcel, statues, musical mats and the like. He managed to scoop the pool with his gifts again and was very happy with his bike, Optimus Prime transformer and various Ben 10 figurines and watch.
2. Nugget has decided to toilet train at night. This has been a bit hit and a lot miss, but we are establishing strategies now that seem to be keeping the sheets dry!
3. The babies turned 4 months! They are getting bigger, smiling and giggling, sleeping a little better (the Minx is far superior to Deew Drop at this point in time with regards to sleeping) and attempting to roll over (the Minx can from tummy to back since 8 weeks) and sit up. They are so alert now and love the attention their big brothers lavish on them (Doo Dah can get a little keen and practically lies on top of them).
4. Doo Dah is toilet training. He has been very successful for a young thing, but we are still getting days where he wees all over the house! Frustrating! And, unlike Nugget who NEVER pooed in his undies, Doo Dah is quite partial to a random poo too which is most unattractive all on levels.
5. We have been to many fun birthday parties for the Mother's Group crew. The boys have enjoyed playing the party games, riding their bikes on the bike tracks at the various parks we have been going to and especially the lolly bags they get to take home at the end of the day!
6. I enjoyed my first "High Tea" at the Sir Stamford Hotel for my friend Robyn's 30th birthday. Although there were more car dramas, resulting in me having to leave Minxy at home despite being prepared to take her with me, it was a lovely ladies afternoon of decadence.
7. Mum and Dad have been away in WA for the month.
8. The household has had many illnesses - diarrohea, colds, sore throats, coughs, and random viruses. A complete joy!
9. The Geege has still been looking for different work - with the GFC (Global Financial Crisis) there isn't much work around of course, so this has continued to be a frustrating process. He enrolled in the Certificate IV Training and Assessment to open some doors in the future, but at the moment things haven't changed much for him from a work perspective.
10. We have survived another month with four children with our sense of humour mostly in tact!

People don't eat those fish, they are for the penguins!
Doo Dah is currently obsessed with knowing where everyone is all the time. Including our dog Ruby who hasn't lived with us since the babies were born, so who bloody knows what she is doing at any one given moment!
He starts the day with "Where's Daddy?". My usual response is "At work". This is followed up with an, hourly request for the whereabouts of his beloved father. I started to respond with "on the moon" or "in the trees" but alas he is too quick for that. "Daddy not on the moon" he says. Followed by "Where's Daddy?". Arghhh!
Nugget is past the truly obsessive phase and into the know-it-all, righteous one. For example, yesterday whilst watching the Foxtel children's channel, a strange yellow puppet called Ollie was singing a song about healthy foods.
Nugget pipes up with "I like healthy food, but I don't like broccoli".
I respond with an encouraging comment about big boys trying new foods and growing big and strong. Next thing a series of food starts scrolling across the screen behind Ollie's head, including an image of a whole fish. Nugget begins to laugh.
I ask him what is up and he says "People don't eat those fish, penguins do!". Bless.
These same little boys, with their fixed ideas and crazy obsessions seem to be able to pick up the words of songs faster than I do. They pipe out the words of Justine Clarke's latest CD when I am still struggling with the choruses. Oh to have cerebral plasticity again! I'm guessing they must have got that ability from the Geege (as I am a known song make-r-uper-a) but the sleep deprivation is probably not letting my aging brain function at its full potential either.
It is a shame they don't seem to be able to put those good listening ears into use when I ask them to do something however. I am not sure that the skill will carry over to schoolwork or be at all useful for them in the big picture!
At least they will be able to sing along to the radio (if this medium continues in the future?) and not make idiots of themselves
How do you cope with your children's obsessive questions?

Nominees share Emmy-day rituals, perspectives
By MIKE CIDONI LENNOX
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Most everyone was still a potential winner as nominees stepped out this weekend to celebrate in advance of Monday's Emmy ceremony.
Festivities began early Saturday afternoon, with the annual BAFTA L.A. TV Tea event, sponsored by the Los Angeles branch of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, which brought out, among dozens of others, nominees from the hit Brit drama "Downton Abbey."
"It's great fun because you get to see everyone before the big day," said actress Michelle Dockery, who portrays the Abbey's Lady Mary Crawley. "It's also ("Downton" actress and nominee) Joanne Froggatt's birthday," Dockery continued, sliding into a joke: "So, it's great! They're putting on all these parties for her."
Froggatt, who actually turned 34 on Thursday, is nominated for playing Lady's Maid Anna Bates. "I think there's four possible parties tonight," Froggatt said. "I don't think I'll make all four. I'll see how my stamina holds out. But, then, tomorrow is quite quiet, just the evening-before party and then the big day."
Among Saturday's other major Emmy-related bashes: the Television Academy's performers nominee reception as well as the "Variety" and Women in Film pre-Emmy celebration.
Like Dockery and Froggatt, actress Mayim Bialik is an Emmy veteran. She has three nominations, but no wins, for her portrayal of neurobiologist Amy Farrah Fowler on the sitcom "The Big Bang Theory."
"I usually have Thai food before I go to the Emmys," Bialik said. "I usually put on mopey emotional music, just because it lets me feel something, so I'm not numb with all my anxiety."
When asked about Emmy-day rituals, nominee Jim Carter, best known as "Downton" butler Mr. Carson, replied playfully, "I always check that my fly is up. I think that is essential. I wash thoroughly. And I stand upright. And that's about as close as I can get to a routine, I'm afraid."
Laverne Cox, who lost out in the guest actress in a comedy category to her "Orange is the New Black" co-star Uzo Aduba at last weekend's Creative Arts Emmys, showed team spirit when discussing Monday's comedy-series competition. That's where "Orange" could break "Modern Family'''s four-year winning streak.
"I love the gang at 'Modern Family,'" Cox said, with a sly smile. "But it's time for a new show. Of course, I'm biased," she added.
"Orange" nominee Kate Mulgrew said just getting the role of prison chef Red meant she had the prize.
But that's not the attitude of "Fargo" nominee Billy Bob Thornton, who explained, "You know how people say, 'Well, I've been nominated. I feel like I'm already a winner'? I look at it a different way. I look at it like, 'I'm already a loser,' and it's much easier."

… Which Could Have Caused Nuclear Meltdowns from Coast-to-Coast
Washington's Blog
August 4, 2013
Whew … That Was Close
We've sounded the alarm for years that a large solar flare – like the one we had in 1859 – could cause worldwide nuclear meltdowns … and numerous other problems.
2 weeks ago, we just barely dodged the bullet.
Washington Examiner reports:
The earth barely missed taking a massive solar punch in the teeth two weeks ago, an "electromagnetic pulse" so big that it could have knocked out power, cars and iPhones throughout the United States.
Two EMP experts told Secrets that the EMP flashed through earth's typical orbit around the sun about two weeks before the planet got there.
"The world escaped an EMP catastrophe," said Henry Cooper, who lead strategic arms negotiations with the Soviet Union under President Reagan, and who now heads High Frontier, a group pushing for missile defense.
"There had been a near-miss about two weeks ago, a Carrington-class coronal mass ejectioncrossed the orbit of the Earth and basically just missed us," said Peter Vincent Pry, who served on the Congressional EMP Threat Commission from 2001-2008. He was referring to the 1859 EMP named after astronomer Richard Carrington that melted telegraph lines in Europe and North America.
"Basically this is a Russian roulette thing," added Pry. "We narrowly escape from a Carrington-class disaster."
Pry, Cooper, and former CIA Director James Woolsey have been recently demanding that Washington prepare the nation's electric grid for an EMP, either from the sun or an enemy's nuclear bomb. They want the 2,000-3,000 transformers in the grid protected with a high-tech metal box and spares ready to rebuild the system. Woolsey said knocking out just 20 would shut down electricity to parts of the nation "for a long time."
But Washington is giving them the cold shoulder, especially the administration. Woolsey told Secrets that some in Congress are interested in the issue, but the administration is just in the "beginnings" of paying attention.
The EMP effect is not rare. One occurred in Canada in 1989, knocking out Quebec's electric transmission system. And North Korea is reportedly testing a device to attack the U.S. with an EMP attack.
The trio appeared at an event in Washington this week, but Pry said getting the nation's leaders interested in the issue is difficult and educating the public about EMP hard too. "The education curve isn't going up fast enough," he said.
It would cost a pittance to protect our nuclear plants from such a flare.
But it's hard to get politicians' attention when they're focused on throwing money at corporate welfare queens, insane military and security boondoggles and pork, harmful quantitative easing,unnecessarynuclear subsidies, the failed war on drugs, and other frivolities.

Have you heard the one about Keith Olbermann and Michael Moore talking disparagingly about the Assange rape allegations and the subsequent outcry about their remarks? No? Before we go any further, take a minute and catch up with the goings on in my open letter to Keith and also see Feministing's roundup and my roundup of the issue in general before the famous conversation here.
So now that you are more or less up to speed, quick recap–Olbermann strutted out of the Twitterverse the other day saying he felt that the criticism of his remarks was an attack. The he returned because according to him, the "frenzied spectacle" had stopped and issued this statement,
Rape has touched my family, directly and savagely, and if anybody thinks I have addressed it without full sensitivity, then that assessment is the one that counts, and I apologize. But these accusations that I "revealed" an accuser's identity by retweeting Bianca Jagger's link, or that I 'shamed' an accuser by asking a question about the prosecution of a man governments are trying to bury, or that I do not 'understand' charges that have yet to be presented in their final form, reflect exactly the kind of rushing to judgment of which I'm accused, and merit the same kind of apology I have just given.
He followed up with this statement saying that the protests were worse than the anti-feminism he was accused of (although that really isn't what he was accused of), it was, wait for it, new phrase–"anti-personism". And finally there was this gem (and who knows what statement Olbermann is making with the photo),
That's why I took my time out & why I replied as I did. Feminism has no greater male supporter in tv news than me.
So personism trumps feminism, never mind that such a statement indicates a deep misunderstanding of what feminism is about. And Keith I hate to break it to you but feminism doesn't have any great male supporters on television. Are you better than some? For sure, but dude, look at your guest lineup–they are mostly white and male and until that changes, do not even pretend to be a champion of feminism.
I think it is that last quote about being the greatest feminist supporting guy on tv that really is the most disheartening because the idea that he is such a great supporter is bunk and that he thinks he is amounts to pretty standard liberal male delusion. Yes there are some great guys out there who truly do support feminism. But there are a lot more who think they do that actually don't. And like a whole lot of other feminists, I am worn out by that, pissed about it, and just plain sad about it. It takes an enormous amount of time from other more important work when we have to call out and address faux feminist men. Sometimes they are well intentioned, sometimes not so much, but it doesn't take all that much unpackaging to get to why they so persistently don't get it. It's called male privilege. And Olbermann has a bad case of it.
So I'm just going to close with this point–support women-positive media. Mainstream media isn't going to provide it to you. There are far too examples of women-positive media to list here, many are found in our blogroll on the right side of the page. It is out there and we need to foster and encourage and yes monetarily support these voices. Otherwise we'll be stuck listening to Keith Olbermann's feminism.
If Olbermann hasn't blocked me on Twitter already, this should probably do it. Which is unfortunate, because I do value his voice, he has much to say that is important to hear, but on this he is very wrong. So I dare you Keith, don't block me and send me a Tweet and tell me you read this.

Celebrity Cribs: Get A Peek At RihRih's New $12 Milli Mansion In La La Land
Rihanna might not have a man but she's got a man-sion!
Via TMZ reports:
Rihanna's moving on after her leaky Beverly Hills home disaster last year — plunking down $12 million on a brand new mansion in the Pacific Palisades … just a few miles away.
The 11,000 sq. ft. house features 7 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, a cutting edge kitchen, a dining room with a 14-foot ceiling, an outdoor BBQ and bar, a swimming pool, a sun deck, 4-car garage, and a 6,000 sq. ft. backyard.
Not bad, considering Rihanna's last L.A. real estate venture was a nightmare.
As we first reported, Rihanna filed a lawsuit last year against the person who sold her a Beverly Hills mansion, claiming the place was a leaky piece of crap.
Rihanna purchased the home for $6.9 million — and sold the place last December for a measly $5 million.
Congrats on the new crib RihRih!

Please help. If you know the solution for ubuntu, I'll try it.
I have Lenovo IdeaPad S10-3 (intel-atom netbook). After installing lubuntu 11.04 I realized that the system doesn't recover after suspend. It just hangs and I need to do hard reset.
Trying to implement various things didn't help so now I ask for a way to turn suspending OFF. To break is easier than to build =)
Or change suspend to hibernation. So that closing the notebook would not lead to hard reset to me. Thanks for help

Capo Pursuit Long Sleeve Jersey

Capo Pursuit Long Sleeve Jersey
Not every jersey is created equal. Capo knows this, and if you've been doing your research, you know this, too. Some have a great fit that's been degraded by poor materials, while others are just completely wrong from neck to waist, and rarely do we ever see a full spectrum of quality embodied within one jersey. It was this conundrum that inspired Capo to dig deep into its Italian heritage and create a winter jersey that meets all of your demands. The Pursuit Long Sleeve Jersey has a fit worthy of the Spring Classics and a level of protection that's at once accommodating to layering, yet strong enough to hold its own throughout the shoulder season.It's easy to know what you're getting into with Capo. After all, Capo's series categories signify the purpose of every piece in its line. For instance, the Pursuit long sleeve jersey is part of the illustrious Corsa Series. And while this might sound like an overly flamboyant way to say 'race-cut,' the title is indicative of Capo's Italian obsession and race-quality orientation. So, to strike the perfect balance between comfort and warmth, Capo constructed the Pursuit long sleeve jersey from a combination of the top-tier Thermo Roubaix and Winter Quattro fabrics, with the bulk of the construction falling to the latter. This material features a dual-knit composition that provides equal parts breathability and insulation. At the side panels and underarms, Thermo Roubaix has been placed to promote both stretch, breathability, and warmth.With a warp-knit construction, the material has a natural stretch. Within the knit, the threads follow a zig-zag pattern along the length of the jersey. This allows more surface area coverage while using less material, equating directly to an airy, lightweight construction. Thermo Roubaix's open, hollow core weave also accelerates moisture transfer from the skin to the quick-drying surface of the jersey. However, the precise brushing process is what contributes most to its warmth. After the dying process, dedicated machines perform a brush to the inner-lining that provides a high, fleecy, and warming loft.And while a top-end fabric is terrific, its use is nullified if the fit is out of order. That's why the Pursuit jersey's fit is nothing short of impeccable. Using a multi-panel, contoured design, the jersey follows the shape of your body, while following its movements in and out of the saddle. The rear hem has been elongated to protect you from wheel-spray and infiltrating drafts. At the collar, Capo struck a balance between heights and opted for a mid-level design that keeps encroaching winds out without stacking up the heat.The Capo Pursuit Long Sleeve Jersey is available in the colors Black, Red, and White and in five sizes from Small to XX-Large. For maximum effectiveness, Capo suggests wearing the Pursuit between the temperatures of 45 and 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Every Pursuit jersey is made in Italy.

Spaghetti Meatballs Recipes
Lamb Meatball Recipe (Gluten Free Meatballs)
My favorite meat by far is lamb. When seasoned properly, it is so tender and tasty. I enjoy it both in whole pieces and in ground form. I recently made meatballs using ground lamb, which is something I haven't tried before. The filling was flavored with fresh mint, cumin, smoked paprika, smoked pepper, smoked sea salt, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne powder and lemon juice. I browned the meatballs in a non-stick pan and finished cooking them in marinara sauce. Usually I add bread to the meat but replaced it with quinoa to make the dish gluten-free. Simple and delicious!
I was introduced to Bourbon Barrel Foods products and used them when making these meatballs. I absolutely LOVE the unique flavors of their soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sea salts and spices. They are some of the most interesting and innovative ingredients I've used in a very long time. Annie from Bourbon Barrel Foods was kind enough to agree to give away a bottle of their Bourbon Barrel aged blue grass soy sauce, "the ONLY microbrewed Soy Sauce made in the U.S.", to three lucky Pham Fatale readers. Just submit your email to the Bourbon Barrel newsletter below before Monday, Oct 31st, 2011 for a chance to win!

Spaghetti and Meatballs Recipe
If you're looking for a delicious meat ball recipe, look no further. I grind both beef chunks and veal for added flavor, but the real secret is that I added bread that I soaked in milk. I learned that trick from a chef in Florence, Italy when I was a teenager. The mixture is flavored with various herbs, Parmesan cheese and binded with a few eggs. All that is left is to make your own tomato sauce. I browned each meatball in a non-stick pan, then let the meatballs braise in the homemade tomato sauce.
For a Vietnamese version, check out thịt viên or my mắm chưng thịt recipe, and for an Indian version, try kofta or kebab. Each culture has its own variation and it's equally delicious!

jacket // primark
t-shirt // new look
jeans // topshop
shoes // office
bag // primark
lipstick // "mink" topshop
I have been wanting these holographic slip-ons since I first saw them in June, and was never in the mood to pass up the £20 for them when I'm usually a trainers or black boots kinda girl, nothing in-between. Anyhoo, Office were having a 20% of everything sale this weekend, and they happened to still have my size (I was surprised they hadn't all sold out.) I think they're absolutely gorgeous, and a real statement piece, especially paired with my fluffy jacket. They are very similar to the Topshop slip-ons though, because they're stiff as a board and rub like crazy. They need a few more wears with thick socks to break them in and then they'll be fine. I don't usually wear smaller bags in the day such as this one, but this was my Christmas/Black Friday weekend shopping outfit so I didn't want a huge bag hanging off my arm all day. Manchester was disgracefully busy and I got barged into approx 48457493 times, but I got all my presents and it's not even December ^.^
What do you think of this outfit?
