LEGO Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues on the Nintendo DS is a comedic action/adventure game that combines the fun and creative construction of LEGO bricks with the wits, daring and non-stop action of one of cinema's most beloved adventure heroes. With a unique, tongue-in-cheek take on all the Indiana Jones films – including for the first time ever Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – LEGO Indiana Jones 2 follows Dr. Jones' escapades from the jungles of South America to the Peruvian Ruins and beyond. Players will also be able to jump into all new vehicles to help Indy get through all the new levels including planes, boats and mine carts – but watch out for the quicksand.
Lowly Worm
Nintendo DS
There is nothing new with the fundamental formula. A chapter of the game is started with smashing everything in bits and pieces, solve simple puzzles and amass tons of LEGO studs and consequently, purchase brand new characters and do some cheating. The focal point of the game play is still fun to some extent, but since games have been played many times before, it is lacklustre and become monotonous.
What makes the LEGO Indiana Jones 2 distinct from its counterparts is that the setting of the key story line is situated in the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. You will have the chance to collect studs on a rock boat which is presumed to be a throwback of the entrance of the Last Crusade These challenges will compensate you with hats that are golden and which is the usual take on the golden treasure chests.
For the most part, LEGO Indy 2 on the DS is boring and the control panels are unstable. The level design is restrained and since the areas are tiny, extensive explorations are not possible. Though there are areas to return to and retry when you have the particular characters, the experience is still unexciting. The jumping aspect is not as receptive as it should be, thus several section on the platforms can be upsetting.
With regards to the specific controls of the DS, all the actions can be performed with the use of D-Pad and face buttons. You can also opt to swipe your thumb at the lower portion of the screen in order to carry players and objects as well as sway your whip. On the other hand, secret collection in LEGO Indy 2 is entirely handled properly and despite the fact that the list of unlockables is shorter in contrast to other LEGO games, there are still numerous objects to look for. So to uncover the various challenges and in a way let you earn golden hats, the first thing that you will do is take the journey and search for pieces of map.
There is really not much to see in the illustration perspective considering that storytelling is performed by means of texts and simple impressions. Even if the images are drawn properly and with good sense of humor, the text of the story is quite tedious and dull.
There is however, a welcoming feature of the game both on the DS and the PSP and that is the presence of WiFi game for 2 players. Overall, there are better ways to spend your money rather than just smashing stuff and collecting studs, though for the most part, it could still be rewarding in any way.

The Light from the TV Shows: A Chat with Ted Nugent ("Spirit of the Wild")
There was a time when Ted Nugent was known only for his contributions to rock 'n' roll (one of the greatest of which, of course, is giving the world a song entitled "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang"), but that time has long since passed. These days, Nugent is certainly still well regarded as a rocker, but he's at least as readily identified by his political stances and his profound enjoyment of hunting. Believe it or not…and I couldn't believe it, so I looked it up, but, yep, it's true…Nugent has been hosting his own outdoor series for 25 years now, and the series in question – "Spirit of the Wild" – is now back on the Outdoor Channel for another season. Bullz-Eye had the opportunity to chat with Nugent in conjunction with the series' return, and you will not be surprised to hear that he had a great deal to say.
Bullz-Eye: Well, I'm sure you're thrilled that "Spirit of the Wild" is back again, but it's almost incomprehensible that this is its 25th season.
Ted Nugent: How 'bout that? Am I adorable or what? [Laughs.] Isn't there an award for being the most precious, adorable bow hunter in the world?
BE: Yes, I believe it's called the Nugent.
TN: I believe you're right! [Laughs.]
BE: I'm curious about the origins of the show, since the math makes it clear that it's been around longer than the Outdoor Channel. How did it first come about? And how did it come to end up on the Outdoor Channel?
TN: Well, you know, this is a story that… I'm shocked. Well, I guess I'm not shocked. Barack Obama's the President. [Laughs.] How much shock can we handle? Our Attorney General runs guns to Mexican drug gangs! Is there any shock left? Our government picks out people to harass with the tax agency! I guess my shock cup runneth over. But I'm equally shocked, I've gotta tell you, that this story has not been pursued.

Artwork description:
Remains of Control I is a work from the Remains series.
The Remains series was inspired by a number of photos made as part of a metal fatigue research, a field in which there are high tensions and deformations, resulting in interesting forms and textures. Later, some images from the trivial round were added, but now subsumed under the main theme. The idea was to aestheticize the remains i.e. things that are utilized and already useless. However, in the work process, it turned out that trivial objects could carry additional and more complex meanings. Being a result of the change they put us directly into the time stream. We could imagine, what the things were like, how they slowly changed and how they will disappear we could become aware of the course of time. On the other hand, we could take these deformed objects, this tired matter as a metaphor of the end of the industrial society along with its pretensions and its impudence.

'Best interest' for Thornton to skip Classic
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Matt Thornton thoroughly enjoyed his World Baseball Classic experience in 2009, when he pitched in five games for Team USA.
That great level of enjoyment wasn't enough to stop Thornton from turning down an offer to play for Team USA this year when his agent was asked about the left-hander being part of the provisional roster.
"Just one of those things that it was a choice I made," Thornton said. "I felt with the workload I've had over the last four or five years and the way I felt at the end of the year, the way I was struggling in back-to-back outings, it was something in my best interest and the team's best interest to avoid this year.
"I loved the WBC. I had a blast. Getting to meet guys you normally don't get to play with and be a part of Team USA and that kind of thing, it was an honor. It was a tough choice. It wasn't easy for me to say no. It took me a few days to make that choice. I felt it was in my best interest to avoid."
At 36, Thornton begins his seventh year with the White Sox in quite possibly the best shape of his career. He enters 2013 as the franchise's all-time holds leader, fourth on the franchise's list of appearances at 472 and is the all-time appearance leader among White Sox relievers.
The White Sox have a $6 million option or a $1 million buyout for Thornton in 2014, but the southpaw wasn't worried about anything past the bullpen he threw Friday. As for how long he wants to play beyond this season, Thornton has an idea when it will be time to go.
"It definitely gets harder as your kids get older and stuff," Thornton said. "You see guys that I know now that have kids who are 8, 9, 10 years old. You hear Jake [Peavy] talking about how much he misses his kids all the time. It's a lifestyle that's not easy.
"At the same time, I love the game of baseball. I love competition and going out there and the preparation in the offseason. I still love working hard getting ready for the season. When I start to avoid the preparation part is when I think that's when I'll realize I'm ready to phase out. I had one of the best offseasons of my career this offseason.
"Obviously, wearing the White Sox uniform for rest of my career would be something I would love to do," Thornton said. "But that's definitely out of my hands."

Think being fit means having an expensive gym membership, pricey exercise equipment and costly groceries from the natural-foods section of the store? Well, think again. Here are five tips to help you reach your fitness goals, without putting a huge dent in your budget.
Budget Fitness Tip No. 1: The Best Things in Life Are Free
There are lots of great exercises that don't cost a single penny. Walking and jogging are completely free, and competitive sports like basketball and soccer require only a place to play (usually public parks) and a single ball (which can usually be bought used at a discounted price).
Even playing on a golf course, which can get pricey, doesn't have to break the bank. Many courses offer Frisbee golf, and beyond the cost of the Frisbee, it can be a really fun, thrifty way to burn some calories. And if you're lucky enough to live near an ocean or a lake, you can swim as long as you want without paying any of those hefty membership fees.

Budget Fitness Tip No. 2: Leave the Car at Home
If you want to save some serious money, and get the blood pumping at the same time, one way is to look for alternative forms of transportation when getting around. The bus or subway is often cheaper than driving your car and you'll get some exercise out of it—you do have to walk to the bus stop or subway station, after all. Best of all, if you live close enough to commute to work on your bicycle, not only will you save money on gas costs, but you'll get in great shape in no time.
If you have to drive: Instead of fighting for a close parking space, take a space off the beaten path and add a few extra steps to your routine. Your body will thank you for it.

Budget Fitness Tip No. 3: Eat Healthy, Save Money
Fitness isn't just about exercise—your diet is a crucial part of being healthy too. But there continues to be a perception that healthy eating has to be expensive. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The produce section of the grocery store is where you should be spending most of your shopping time. Most other parts of the grocery store not only contain expensive items but they tend to hold most of the artificial food that isn't great for you.
By sticking to the produce section, you can pick up tasty fruits like apples, bananas and pears as cheap snack alternatives. And with items like beans, carrots, broccoli and lettuce often under $1 per pound. You can fill up your pantry without taking out a line of credit at the bank.

By Nam Hari Kaur Khalsa, California, USA
The month of April brings a time of spiritual, mental, and emotional recalibration. We need to reset our psyche towards true North, or true Spirit, in order to maintain a consistent and steady course of action which will bring the best results. This is the time to ask yourself the questions, "Are my actions in accord with my higher self, and am I using my energy wisely?" Our personal energy is the most precious resource we have, and when maintained consciously it will yield the greatest harvest. The seeds of good works and higher intentions planted now can bring about a bumper crop of abundance in autumn, which is traditionally known as "harvest time." In our modern culture we are so used to being able to "order up" almost anything 24/7, that we forget the natural rhythm and order of the Earth. We plant, maintain, water, weed, and then, at the right time, harvest our original seeds of inspiration. The effort and sweat of your own brow makes the fruit of success even sweeter.
We are presently in a false energy paradigm where, by accelerating everything, we are seduced into believing we will be able to maintain a healthy lifestyle. We have our triple macchiato double foam latte, sitting next to our 4G warp-drive, hyper-speed internet connection; while listening to a message on our cell phone marked "urgent." Who can keep up anymore? This is why there is presently so much breakdown within our culture and society.
Humans were not designed to relentlessly perform at such a frenetic pace. Even a pinball machine—when overworked—will hit "tilt" mode, and totally shut down.
One way you can enrich and empower your personal planting season is to do an 11-minute pranayam (breath meditation) for 40 days. The manual Praana Praanee Praanayam is a "meditative bible" that is full of easy to advanced yogic breathing exercises. It is one of the best publications of Yogi Bhajan's teachings, and is a spiritual life-preserver in these times. The breath is our storehouse of energy and reserve strength. A particularly potent kriya to do this month is the meditation, "For Powerful Energy" on page 42 of the aforesaid manual, using the mantra "Hummee Hum, Braham Hum" (We are we, we are God). It is simple, charming, and enchanting, and will entirely shift your energy in just 8 minutes. We have the ability to be our own back-up system, and this is necessary from now till future times.
Looking again at our present month of April, the number 8 is in the sub layers of the monthly cycle. However, it is in a "static interlock," which means that all issues having to do with power and boundaries are challenged. You will notice this especially while driving your car, or even looking for a parking space. Don't let yourself get pulled into a "psychic duel" with another person, regardless of what the issue or environment may be. Is it really worth getting into an accident over who gets to the red light first? The greater potential problem of this month is not the original altercation, but what can happen while you are so distracted with making sure someone else doesn't "win." Using the driving example again, you may charge ahead to cut someone off because they just cut you off; and in the process you don't notice the car ahead of you hitting their brakes, and you end up smashing into them. And just guess whose fault it is.
We are shifting into a new rhythm in the unfolding of time itself. It is called "jump time," which means we can suddenly find ourselves accelerated forward into circumstances we did not see coming, or did not have the ability to anticipate. This "jump time" effect can also be highly positive. It will often be a combination of consciousness and intention which determines where you land.
This may sound like science fiction, however it's not. It is also not something to be afraid of, as our higher self does have the ability to navigate these situations, even though the emotions may have a different response. The trick is to develop yourself to the point where you instinctively go to your higher self for the answers, and not the repetitive pattern of your emotionally chaotic self. The breath is the answer.
Now is the time to re-set yourself to a rhythm which reflects self-love. Four (April) is the number of the Heart Center, the domain of kindness and compassion. Self kindness is actually the first step towards healing our planet. In this month of April you can lovingly plant the seeds of self enrichment, knowing that a harvest time of good fortune will come to fruition in the future.
"Wisdom is a process of self-involvement to guide our own self fearlessly and flawlessly. You have to develop that process." -Yogi Bhajan

County busy with crime, handles back-to-back stabbings
County deals with 11 arrests in two days
2013 is already off to a busy start for the sheriff's department in one county.
The Crawford County Sheriff's Department has handled several major crimes in the first three weeks of the New Year.
Sheriff Ron Brown says the department has busted two meth labs and arrested 11 people in back-to-back stabbings over the weekend.
Brown says one stabbing happened in Mulberry on Friday, the second in Dyer on Saturday.
"The only relationship between the stabbing in Mulberry and the stabbing in Dyer is that they were both drug-related," says Brown. "In 2012, Crawford County experienced a lot of serious major crimes. 2013 has pretty much started off the same way."
Brown says the sheriff's department will continue to work closely with city police departments to make sure the county stays safe.
"Sheriff Brown has offered his investigators to help us along," says Mulberry Police Chief Shannon Gregory. "We've worked hand in hand in this investigation. It's been great teamwork between the two departments."
Brown says the suspects involved with the stabbings are still in jail.

This is the latest in our series, First Time at a Bed and Breakfast?
Tipping is a touchy subject for some people. The unwritten rules about who to tip and how much seem incomprehensible at times. Sometimes it seems like every time you turn around someone wants a tip! Who gets a tip at a B&B is pretty clear though. Innkeepers and their family NO, housekeepers unrelated to the innkeeper YES, if deserved! Here is why:
Innkeepers are the owners of the business and the proceeds of the business are their reward. Tipping your innkeepers is not expected and in many inns it is prohibited. Your best reward for a good experience in a B&B is a good online review and recommendations to your friends.
Tipping the housekeeper is another matter altogether! Find out if your innkeeper hires help to clean. If so, the same tipping guidelines apply to staying at an inn as they do in a hotel. Housekeepers work behind the scenes, before you arrive and after you leave as well as tidying up your room during your stay. They do backbreaking work and are at the low end of the pay scale. Like waiters and waitresses, tips are an important part of their income and can make a big difference in their lives.
How to leave a tip and how much should you leave:
Many inns that hire housekeepers allow them to put out envelopes in the rooms for tips. If you want to tip a housekeeper, never just leave cash or change out on a dresser for him or her without labeling it clearly as a tip for their service. A maid has to be very careful about taking money out of a room, even and empty one. If an envelope hasn't been provided, ask your innkeeper for one or use a folded sheet of plain paper clearly labeled.
How much do you tip? That's the hard part. In practice it varies widely and is at your discretion. Most hotel guidelines indicate that maid's tips should be about $3-5 per night for a luxury hotel and $1-2 per night for an average hotel. Most B&Bs these days fit into the "luxury" category. If you were not happy with the cleanliness of your room, by all means, you are not expected to tip for bad service! On the other hand, if she went above and beyond, getting extra amenities or towels for you or going out of her way to make you comfortable feel free to leave a little more. Some guidelines say tip daily, since the same housekeeper may not clean your room every day. At our inn, the housekeeper puts the envelope out on the last day of your visit.
Look for our next installment on the dos and don'ts of staying at a B&B: Breakfast etiquette.

Comfortiva is committed to making the online shopping experience convenient and enjoyable for our customers.
The links below offer helpful information about our company and its policies, as well as answers to your questions about shipping, order status, and more.
Online Customer Service
To place an order, check on an existing order, or return merchandise, call:

At Comfortiva.com, standard UPS Ground shipping is always free. The estimated arrival date to your door is based on the distance from our distribution center in Maine.
(FROM UPS.com)
Taxes that appear on your online order are approximate. The actual taxes charged
to your credit card will reflect the applicable state and local sales taxes, and
will be calculated when your order is shipped. Orders shipped to CT, MA, and ME
will have all applicable local and state sales taxes added to your total order,
and to your shipping charges where appropriate.
To be clear, the Internet Tax Freedom Act (ITFA), which was signed into law on October
21, 1998, does not, as some have asserted, preclude sales and use taxes on any and
all commerce conducted over the Internet. State and local governments are allowed
to impose sales and use taxes on all such electronic sales, provided that the tax
(and its rate) are the same as that which would be imposed on the transactions if
they were conducted in a more traditional manner, such as over the phone or through
mail order.
The ITFA is intended to prevent any jurisdiction from imposing special taxes on
Internet transactions, other than such taxes that a jurisdiction already has the
ability to impose (e.g., sales tax; see below). The ITFA prevents the imposition
of any such taxes through November 1, 2014.
Currently, most e-commerce companies use the same taxation rules used by mail-order
companies, which are based on constitutional guidelines for interstate commerce.
Generally this means that states can only require companies to collect sales tax
in states where they have business operations, and as a result, a company will not
collect sales tax in states where they have no business operations. If someone were
to order something from one of our catalogs, that person would only be charged sales
tax if he or she shipped his or her order to a state where Söfft Shoe Company,
Inc. has physical operations. Example: If a person shipped something to Wyoming,
Söfft Shoe Company, Inc. would not be required to collect sales tax because
it has no business operations in Wyoming.
The ITFA also prohibits state and local governments from imposing taxes on Internet
access charges, protects against the imposition of new tax liability for consumers
and vendors involved in commercial transactions over the Internet, and creates a
temporary commission to study taxation of Internet commerce and to report back to
Congress in 18 months on whether the Internet ought to be taxed and, if so, how
taxes can be applied without subjecting the Internet and electronic commerce to
special, discriminatory, or multiple taxation.

Söfft Shoe Company, Inc. produces quality footwear that serves many different purposes.
We stand behind the products that we produce. At times, despite our best efforts
to assure the best quality, a product purchased from a retailer may have a defect
in materials and/or workmanship as there are many components and processes that
go into footwear manufacturing.
If a consumer believes that a manufacturer's defect has caused unusual wear or otherwise
affects the use of the footwear, we require the consumer to return the footwear
to the retailer where the footwear was originally purchased. The original selling
retailer has its own policies and processes in place to satisfy the consumer including
an initial inspection for normal wear. In the event that the selling retailer can
not reasonably satisfy the consumer, that consumer may then contact the brand manufacturer.
If someone other than the original purchaser contacts or attempts to contact Söfft
Shoe Company, Inc. or any of its divisions or affiliated companies, it will be necessary
for us to receive the appropriate written authorization from the original purchaser
authorizing Söfft Shoe Company, Inc. to discuss the matter with the representative
and to deal with the representative in resolving the matter.
Söfft Shoe Company, Inc. and its affiliates require that a consumer have the original
sales receipt within one year of purchase and can identify the retailer that the
footwear was purchased from. We may use reasonable efforts to contact that retailer
on the consumer's behalf to ensure full satisfaction. In the event that this is
not possible the consumer may choose to return the footwear to us for inspection.
If a determination is made that there is in fact a defect Söfft Shoe Company, Inc.
has, at its option, the right to either repair, credit in full against the purchase
of inventory currently in stock at MSRP, prorate the value of the original purchase,
as appropriate, or replace the footwear with the same or comparably valued footwear.
If no defect is apparent the inspected footwear will be returned to the consumer.

[A Kansas Soldier at War: The Civil War Letters of Christian and Elise Dubach Isely by Ken Spurgeon (The History Press, 2013). Softcover, 2 maps, photos, notes, bibliography, index. Pages main/total:161/187. ISBN:978-1-62619-015-3 $21.99]
Swiss immigrant husband and wife Christian and Elise Isely were residing in St. Joseph, Missouri in 1861. A Douglas Democrat, Christian, perhaps through his experience of the border troubles of the 1850s, was more anti-slavery and pro-Union than his parents and siblings living in Winesburg, Ohio. When Civil War broke out, he decided to enlist in the 2nd Kansas Cavalry, leaving his politically like-minded wife behind in Missouri. Their hundreds of letters to each other comprise the backbone of Ken Spurgeon's A Kansas Soldier at War. Eschewing the typical format of published Civil War correspondence, the author instead incorporates letter excerpts of various length into a narrative structure.
It is obvious from the pair's always affectionate writings that they were extremely devoted to one another. It also becomes immediately apparent to the reader that a common religious faith was an integral part of their marital bond. Even in an era where such sentiments were commonly expressed in letters, their pervasiveness in the Isely correspondence makes it clear that spiritual considerations were deeply embedded in all aspects of their lives.
In contrast to his brother Henry's service with the Union army in South Carolina and Virginia, Christian experienced little in the way of direct combat, so readers looking forward to information about the fighting in the Trans-Mississippi will be somewhat disappointed. For an extended period, Christian was detached from the regiment to man the defenses of Fort Leavenworth. When he finally did join the 2nd Kansas Cavalry in the field, most of his combat experience was in fighting guerrillas. His most detailed account of a specific battle is for Devil's Backbone, a September 1863 fight in Arkansas that remains little regarded in the literature. Before mustering out at the expiration of his enlistment in fall 1864, he also participated in the Camden Expedition, though it is unclear from the passive nature of the selected excerpts what he actually experienced firsthand.
What I found most interesting was the stormy relationship between the couple and the Iselys in Ohio, who were all anti-war Democrats. As mentioned above, Christian was also a Democrat [he and his wife gave their first son, who unfortunately died as an infant, the middle name "McClellan"], but repeatedly clashed with his parents and brothers over fighting a destructive war to reunite the country and abolish slavery. When heated acrimony threatened permanent schism, Elise would always entreat her husband to preserve family relations and never allow politics to interfere with personal regard. However, emotions seemed to always be on edge. Elise herself resided with the Ohio Iselys for a lengthy period during the war, a situation that resulted in many uncomfortable moments but also likely helped keep the family intact. When both of Christian's brothers were drafted, Henry chose to report while the other purchased a substitute. Henry, who remained a critic of the Lincoln administration while in the army, deeply resented Christian's "Copperhead" accusations while the younger Isely was fighting and bleeding for the country. He even reenlisted while Christian left the army for home. Even so, with the help of Elise (who liked Henry very much when met him in Ohio), their strained relationship never reached the breaking point.
While it will disappoint some readers that full transcriptions of the family correspondence are not available, A Kansas Soldier at War is a valuable publication. Published Trans-Mississippi soldier letters remain rare so those with a special interest in the war in Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and the Indian Territory will find Spurgeon's work useful. While the book's contribution to the military historiography may be limited, as a social historical case study of the conflicts of conscience experienced by countless families during the Civil War, it is quite insightful.

There's an old saying about not looking a gift horse in the mouth. A more modern version might warn against reading the fine print accompanying free light bulbs. But as far as I'm concerned, fine print almost demands you read it. And those bulbs could be overpriced, even at free.
Last summer, I took advantage of Toledo Edison's offer of six free compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs). I found the ordering process rather entertaining. My first two calls to the program's toll-free number were disconnected. The third attempt put me in contact with Edison employee "Bruce," who soon proved himself to be a bit of a comedian.
Bruce asked several questions, then wanted my account number. I asked if he would like to hold while I looked up an old bill. Bruce agreed, saying "If you take too long to find it, we'll just penalize you a bulb or two."
Luckily, I found the number pretty quickly, and Bruce informed me that "You beat the clock and will get all six bulbs."
After a wait of about three months, the CFLs finally arrived. I read the enclosed instructions, including where to obtain information about cleaning up a broken CFL. That left me wondering if I wanted to use them at all.
The EPA suggests turning off your heating and air conditioning systems for several hours and allowing the room where the bulb broke to air out. After you've cleaned up the pieces and visible powder, store them in a sealed container outdoors in a protected area until the materials can be disposed of properly. Do I need to wear one of those hazardous materials suits?
Remember when you could just sweep up the pieces of an incandescent bulb and throw them in the trash? Once, I even used the old tip of forcing a potato into the base of a broken bulb and using the potato as a handle to unscrew the base from the light socket. I'm thinking those days are gone.
One way or another, those CFLs aren't going to be free. Even if they don't break, they need to be recycled properly after they burn out. If you can't do it in your local area, the EPA says there are companies that will sell you a postage paid kit to mail the bulbs in for recycling, adding: "Bring it to the post office or leave for your postal carrier." Don't they already have enough problems?
In November, I purchased a new hair dryer and once again, the fine print was pretty entertaining, especially warning #7, "Never use while sleeping." I've been known to have strange dreams now and then, but I don't recall ever drying my hair in any of them.
Warning #9 advises against using the dryer outdoors. I guess I'll have to save my old dryer for outdoor use. The instructions for that one are long gone so I'll presume it's safe for that purpose. But the warning that really confuses me is one concerning the power cord.
The instructions, in four different places, warn against wrapping the cord around the dryer as excessive bending is bad for the cord. The company must think I have a short memory. "Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight" is the suggestion for storage.
So why did the cord come direct from the factory folded back upon itself several times, then tied with a twist tie to ensure it would not hang loose? The cord came straight out of the box wrapped tighter than I ever would by merely winding it around the dryer. Maybe I should send a copy of the instructions to the attention of their packaging department.
Lastly, I bought a small flashlight just before Christmas that is still a bit scary. I figured putting two "AA" batteries in a flashlight was a snap, until I opened it up and saw a paper label instructing me to install them upside down, that is, with the positive end on the bottom.
I then consulted the instructions, which said to "Insert batteries according to the polarity drawing indicated on the product." That made me think they really did intend for the upside-down battery placement-except the handy drawing accompanying the instructions shows the batteries in positive terminal at the top position.
There was only one option left—trial and error. It turned out no drawing or instructions were needed as the flashlight works no matter how the batteries are installed. That's handy if I ever have to change batteries in the dark, but a violation of the safety information. Of course, if the batteries ever explode, I have my instructions for broken bulb disposal to consult. It's all electricity, right?

The first presidential debate between President Obama and Mitt Romney produced a surprisingly lopsided victory for Romney that made President Obama look like the empty suit that most Americans have come to see him to be. (See the complete video of the debate below this post)
From beginning to end, Romney was confident, commanding, and concise. For his part, President Obama was a rambling mess who reiterated shallow DNC talking points that even he did not seem to believe anymore. And while Mitt Romney came across as eager to address the President, President Obama often seemed uncomfortable and even annoyed. Pained looks to cross the his face as he continuously looked down at the podium with a strained smile or uncomfortable and exaggerated smile on his face as Mitt Romney often schooled him on such things as the economy and the constitutional role of government in America.
To make matters worse, even though President Obama addressed the audience 4 minutes longer longer than Romney did, his long winded responses actually did little more than provide listeners with a meandering mess that never seemed to arrive at a valid point. It drove home the fact that in politics, when you're explaining, you're losing. In last night's debate, President Obama was explaining a lot.
Viewers of the debate couldn't help but feel that the President was running scared and even the most casual of political observers concluded that President Obama was caught off guard by Romney's command of the issues and seemingly natural confident persona. With nearly universal unanimity, viewers of last night debate saw a President that should have studied harder. Of course the President will probably blame his poor debate performance on Bush, but when all was said and done, the first thought to strike me was that once again, Massachusetts Senator and 2004 Democrat presidential nominee John Kerry failed to accomplish another mission. As President Obama's debate prep partner, Kerry who stood in to play Mitt Romney during debate practice with the President, obviously did not do a good enough job because President Obama was far from ready for this first encounter with Romney.
The Reaction.
Probably the most dramatic result of last nights debate was the universal agreement on how each candidate fared. Republicans and Democrats alike agreed that Mitt Romney was the clear winner and by wide margin. Romney's superior performance was even well lauded by the some of the left's lowest of players.
Bill Maher spent the night in tears as he took to his iPhone to tweet the following gems;
Leading liberal blogmeister Markos Moulitsas from the scurrilous Daily Kos had a few tweets denouncing President Obama's weak debating skills;
Perhaps the gloomiest of gusses last though were the cast of clowns over at MNSBC. There the liberal minions were apoplectic and unable to contain their frustrations. The always lying and perpetually perplexed Chris Matthews was so distraught at the President's inability to defend his failed liberal policies that it sparked within him a sense of anger that left him frothing at the mouth and offering a diatribe of the President that was at times violent. The most notable example of that sentiment came when Matthews claimed that the President needs to watch his show and the rest of the programs on MSNBC because they have "the knives coming out. " Matthews added "We go after the people".
Over at the liberal lala land called Current TV, Al Gore's leftwing propaganda mill, Gore himself sat in the center of his hand picked puppets and socialist supporters and confirmed that this first matchup with Romney for President Obama was not his finest moment. But Gore defended the President by turning to a scapegoat that Gore has built his career on… the environment. According to Gore, the high altitude of Denver where the debate took place was responsible for throwing the president off.
As for the right, Romney exceeded expectations and provided his base with some much needed enthusiasm. Across the board, conservatives offered what was uncharacteristically high praise for Romney. Conservative Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol credited Romney with what he called the "Best Debate Performance By a GOP Presidential Candidate in More than Two Decades". Over at the American Conservative, Scott Galupo offered the following eloquent assessment;
President Obama was listless, exhausted, halting. When he should have been vigorously twisting the knife, he would pause, search for words, and take 15 seconds to make a point that should have taken five seconds. Romney, by contrast, was gamely and ultraprepared; he never once seemed caught off guard. Romney came into this debate knowing he needed to alter the dynamic of the race. If he didn't do it tonight, then it couldn't be done.
What it All Means
While last night's debate has provided Mitt Romney with at least an undeniable but possibly only temporary boost , with 30 days left in the election, it cannot be said that this first of three presidential debates changed the game for him or Obama. Most people who watched the debate walked away supporting the same candidate that they were supporting before they sat do to see the debate. Romney did however at least help himself among the small but significant undecided voters who will be critical to his winning or losing the election. Thanks to the way in which Romney handled himself, these voters did walk away without any reason to vote against Romney. If anything, they left the debate still willing to give Romney a chance to earn their vote. At the same time, another portion of that voting bloc saw a President who was unable to effectively defend his failed economic policies and who struggled to define what role government should play in our lives. Combine that with the confident, poised, energetic, and convincing way in which Romney defended his own policies and these voters left the debate leaning closer to finalizing their support for Romney than at any other point in this election.
Still, despite the overwhelming consensus describing the first debate as a big win for Mitt Romney, at the moment the victory simply keeps him in the game. It has provided the Romney campaign with a new narrative, one which gives his candidacy some much needed momentum. But politics is dynamic, not static and as such Romney will have to work quite hard to keep the momentum flowing in his direction. In addition to the need for a strong performance by his running mate Paul Ryan on October 11th in his debate against Vice President Blunder…I mean Biden, Romney will also have to repeat his strong performance not just one more time but twice more in the the two debates yet to come on October 16th and October 22nd. That will be a tall order, especially now that President Obama has learned that Mitt Romney is no pushover.
So Romney fans need to avoid the temptation to believe that last night was a game changer. When all is said and done and the benefit of hindsight allows us to analyze the entire election in retrospect, it could prove to be a so-called game changer but only if Romney can continue to outperform the President and not just in the debates.
As the remaining weeks of this campaign unfold, Romney must convince voters that he has a plan to turn our economy around and he must offer some details that demonstrates his vision includes much more than just the smoke and mirrors that President Obama's 2008 "hope and change" campaign was based on. After last night's night debate Romney certainly has the opportunity to do that.
By Sunday, the first real in-depth polls based upon this debate will make their way into the public domain. If those polls do not show at least some minimal change in Romney's numbers in the right direction in critical states like Virginia, Nevada, Colorado, Florida, Iowa and New Hampshire than we will know that Romney has a bigger mountain to climb than some already think. If the numbers do show a swing towards Romney, than the pressure will still be on him as an Obama inspired target on his back gets bigger than ever.

Brown, Hallie Q.
|AUNT MAC -- A Life in Three Chapters
|Chapter I.
It was about the 1st of April, in the year 1820, that an emigrating party started from Green Springs, Virginia, to the State of Kentucky. It consisted of Col. Richard Morris, his six children and their mother. There were twenty other families, making a total of 100 persons. Their route was overland, being undertaken in wagons and carriages. The spring season being unusually early the journey was a very pleasant one. Their way lay through the charming, rolling land of Virginia, now fording a muddy, dashing brook, and again riding over some mountain spur.
When eventide began to settle heavily around them, they halted amid a thickly sheltered wood, near some friendly, gushing spring, and when the eastern sky was crimsoned by the blush of the coming morn, the party resumed its journey. How eagerly they drank in the balmy spring air, and how they admired the beauteous scenes as they arose, one after another, like some grand panorama. The Cumberland Mountains loomed up before them with its shaggy brows, and vehicle after vehicle rolled through its noted gap.
One month was thus spent, the party reaching its destination the first of May. They settled on a farm consisting of three thousand acres, which was situated six miles below the city of Louisville.
The parents of the Morris children died shortly after their arrival, leaving them under an executor's care, who was to educate them and see that the estate was equally
Our sketch has to do principally with the second child, Hannah. She was born in the year, 1810, and consequently was ten years old when the family removed to Kentucky. Her home was with her eldest brother, Shelton Morris, until her marriage to Mr. McDonald, which occurred in the year 1833. Albany, Indiana, was chosen as their future place of abode, and here seven years--golden years of joy and happiness--sped swiftly by, when her companion was called from labor to reward. The desolated home was abandoned and Mrs. McDonald removed to Cincinnati, where she became an inmate of her younger sister's house.
Here she began living only for others and wholly forgetting self--one of her loveliest traits that shone out in every action. How weak are the words employed and how short the space allotted to tell the half of this dear saint.

Probably full of sh*t but it's the juiciest cheese…and it's also Mimi!
National Enquirer is reporting that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been hooking up, ever since he guested on her new video. Mimi is ten years older. Love it.
And love Nick Cannon. Have loved him since Drumline. He has the most beautiful hands. Yum.
Am totally down with Mimi frolicking with a younger man. This is a woman who worships Hello Kitty. And needs people to tell her she's beautiful the moment she opens her eyes. For real. A younger little upstart is exactly what she needs.
Here's Nick last night in New York and Mariah in London showing off the girls. Don't lie. You smile when you see her. Her cheese makes you happy. So please…don't hate on The Mimi, k?

I have no real objection to the old practice of making children sit in the corner with a dunce cap as a reward for not studying, but singling out a child for ridicule just because he's the least popular is a totally different matter.

Introducing the New Leica Integrated Ballistics System (IBS) for ER Riflescopes
OutdoorHub 01.16.12
Leica's optical experts have joined forces with G7's ballistics experts to develop the Integrated Ballistic System (IBS ) reticle. This multi-purpose reticle allows the hunter to use the ballistic drop reticle or the center aiming point in conjunction with a custom ballistic turret that has been calibrated in yards.
The hold-over aiming points provide the shooter with aim points out to approximately 500 yards, depending on the cartridge and bullet used. The reticle's windage hash marks assist the shooter in compensating for the wind.
The G-7-powered IBS Ballistic Calculator lets the shooter calculate and print out the distance for each hold-over dot or hash mark for his or her rifle and cartridge. The shooter enters the ballistic information of the cartridge into the calculator, or the factory cartridge specifications are selected; then the user can print a field-carry hold-over chart for that specific load.
A custom ballistic turret, which can be ordered from G7, allows the shooter to adjust the vertical turret to match the distance to the target, then hold right on to complete the shot.
The new IBS System provides shooters with maximum flexibility and ease of use for ultimate in long-range performance, whether using a bullet-drop compensating turret or reticle. The IBS reticle will be available in both Leica's 2.5-10×42 and 3.5-14×42 ER riflescope models either with or without target turrets (elevation only).

The sale of used refrigerators is no longer lucrative for the dealers. This follows the ban on the importation of used refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners, which took effect from January 1, 2013.
Government, through its enforcement of Legislative Instrument (LI) 1932 (2008), recently banned the importation of old refrigerators.
The used electrical appliances, aside containing harmful gaseous substances, pose health risks to users and consume much electricity.
A visit by City & Business Guide to Kaneshie First Light, where a lot of second-hand electrical appliances are displayed for sale, revealed that the once-vibrant business had plummeted.
At 10 am, only few shops were open for business at Kaneshie. A shop owner, who gave his name as Allotey Junior, told this paper that since the ban took effect business had plummeted. "We hardly get about 10 people coming to buy from us on a daily basis. Before the ban, we used to serve over 20 customers a day."
He noted that because they could no longer import used fridges, they have been forced to reduce the prices of the remaining stock in order to get rid of the appliances.
"A table top fridge, which sells at GH˘ 300, is now going for GH˘250 and GH˘200 while the double door which originally sells at GH˘450 is now selling at GH˘400," Allotey emphasized.
Michael Annan, who shared similar sentiments, added that he would sell other used electronic appliances since the new fridges were expensive. "The average Ghanaian cannot afford it," he emphasized.
With government's commitment of GH˘3 million towards encouraging the purchase of new refrigerators over a three-year pilot rebate and exchange programme, it is hoped that many Ghanaians can afford to buy brand new fridges.
Under the project, consumers, who 'surrender' their old refrigerator appliances, will be supported financially to pay part of the cost of a new and efficient one.
Consumers, who opt for higher efficiency refrigerator appliances, will also receive further rebates depending on the level of efficiency of their appliances.
Dr. Alfred Ofosu Ahenkorah, Executive Secretary of the Energy Commission, promoters of the project, noted that the ban would save the nation about $33 million annually.
In an interview with this paper, he emphasized that "it is not our objective to destroy anyone's business but at the same time the country risks being fined by the international community if we continue to import these harmful appliances."
He indicated that talks were underway with a leading refrigerator manufacturer, which would set a factory in Ghana.
