I've had battles with Professor Ken several times before, but I always seem to lose to him (possibly because I suck at BrikWars). But now, a victory has emerged!
As you can see, both Professor Ken and I used 6 units each. We played on a small board. Both of us used fairly random units, but one of my guys was a random skeleton in a coffin. Screamy (the only living guy in the picture) wheeled him around at half speed, trying to crush his enemies under the coffin's weight.
I killed one of Ken's figures first, but he quickly regained the upper hand with the blaster of his Frenchman, who kept on running backwards instead of fighting honorably (but then again, he's French). At one point, his gun jammed on a skill roll of 1, then turned out to be working properly after all (another 1) before finally exploding on its next user, my Obi-Wan (yet a third 1 -- and these all happened in a row)
In the meantime, the skeleton in the coffin was eventually wheeled close enough to C-3P0, who wielded his heavy club with prodigious skill, crushing a random figure of mine, the Skeleton (who fell, dismembered, back into the coffin before shutting the door), plus one of Ken's figures through massive Overkill, before his hand fell off from the strain.
Eventually it was down to just the dismembered droid and Screamy, who finally hit someone with the coffin, rolling enough 6s to smash the coffin open and shred C-3PO with skeleton shards, ending the short skirmish.

Manwë sat on his throne, a deep frown entrenched on his celestial face, his fingers drumming the carven wood handle. His unhappy stare moved across the three figures before him: the miserable, cringing wizard, the coldly wrathful elf-lord, and his bereft daughter, quietly weeping in the back.
"Well?" he said. "Am I to hear at least some excuses for this catastrophe?"
"It was like this, my lord," Gandalf said humbly. "Radagast said I had to get there right away. Saruman summoned me on a most urgent matter."
"Ah," Manwë said. "And you had no clue he had turned."
"Not really, my lord," Gandalf said, flushing.
"You never noticed the Orcs crawling all over Isengard."
"I wanted to think the best of him, my lord. You can understand…"
"I'm trying," Manwë snapped. "What else did Radagast say?"
"He said…" Gandalf's voice sunk to an abashed whisper. "The Nine were abroad, my lord."
"Merely a small piece of gossip," said Manwë bitingly. "And what did you do with this information fit for the society column?"
"I wrote Frodo a letter, warning him to leave the Shire right away."
"And you found a Ranger to take it to him immediately, of course. What any dimwit would do, since Dúnedain litter the landscape guarding the silly place. So naturally…"
"…I left it with Barliman Butterbur," Gandalf said, his face scarlet.
"An unusual choice," said Manwë, his voice crackling with sarcasm. "But you could trust him to keep it safe, even if he forgot to send it on."
"Well," Gandalf said. "I didn't realize there were so many spies in Bree."
"No, of course not," Manwë said. "They've only been moving in and out of the town in droves for years, while Rangers risk their lives keeping the Enemy out."
"One of the spies apparently got his hands on the letter."
"But since it was a model of discretion, it was of no use to him, right?" said Manwë, his eyes piercing the wilting wizard.
"Well," said Gandalf again, trembling. "I slipped a little. I'm afraid I put Aragorn's name in there."
"A small matter," Manwë said with a curl of his lip.
"But Frodo had to meet up with him."
"So true! Therefore you got this message to Aragorn, too."
"I didn't have time."
Manwë cast his eyes up to the heavens, silently calling on Iluvatar to give him strength. He sighed. "But besides the name, which would tip anyone with a knowledge of the history of the Northern Kingdom just who this man was, you didn't give anything else away."
"Just the verses, my lord."
"You mean the poem that says he has Elendil's sword and that he'll be crowned king one day?"
"Yes, my lord," said Gandalf in a barely audible whisper.
Elrond let out a sharp curse. Manwë quelled him with a wilting stare.
"But it wouldn't have mattered, really," Gandalf protested. "If only he had had a whole sword and a knife or two, he could have fought them off. Why in Middle-earth was he running around Eriador with only a broken sword?"
"Why indeed," agreed Manwë. "But since he's not around to tell us, we'll never know."
Arwen's muted snuffling rose to noisy wails of wild grief.
"And then," said Gandalf, warming to his story, "he tried to sneak into the hobbits' parlor and knocked himself out cold against the low ceiling."
"Well," said Manwë, trying not to laugh, "that was unfortunate."
"Yes," said Gandalf, and he raised his extraordinary eyebrows, hoping to recoup some grandeur. "He really should have been more careful."
Manwë let the silence endure for a rather long interval, while he stared unblinking at the wizard's eager face.
"I didn't mean to blame it all on him," said Gandalf sheepishly.
"Good," Manwë said. "What happened then?"
"After Saruman's men—ah—finished Aragorn off, they got the Ring."
"Of course!" Manwë agreed. "Since there was no one else around to help, due to your excellent foresight in warning the Rangers about the danger."
"And that's how Saruman got it."
The silence stretched on. Manwë glared at his fingernails.
Gandalf made one last attempt to save himself. "But at least he got rid of Sauron!"
"Humph," Manwë said. "At least one of my servants could carry out the mandate. Now, get the hell out of here."

text: Well we finally made it to a year! I almost gave in to supplementing back when DD was almost 2 mths due to misleading information/advice. I'm so glad that I was determined not to let DD down and continued on. It definitely was hard in the begining with the short period of colick-like behavior that resulted in a bunch of sleepless nights. It was really hard at times too because of the lack of knowledge and experience my family (and I) have (had) with breastfeeding and the pressure for me to wean at a year. If I ever get lucky enough experience it again with another child in the future I will definitely take what I have learned and do better with it. This group has definitely been a God send! Especially as a place for me to vent my frustrations with. Thank you all for the support and much needed and appreciated advice.

|1 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem,
2 saying, "Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him."
3 When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.
6 'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, Are not the least among the rulers of Judah; For out of you shall come a Ruler Who will shepherd My people Israel.' "
7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said,
9 10 11 12 Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.
13 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, "Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him." 14 15 and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I called My Son."
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men. 17 18 "A voice was heard in Ramah, Lamentation, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, Refusing to be comforted, Because they are no more."
20 saying,
23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, "He shall be called a Nazarene."

Nice try, but there's absolutely nothing contradictory there. As my post says, I learned to WATERSTART with an instructor on a jetski. And I do think that's the way to go AFTER you have learned how to rig, launch, and fly a kite on the beach. My first lesson was on the beach, as with most kiteboarders past, present, and future. That was followed up by a walk into the water, body drag lesson. It's the only way to go. Only you would try to rip people off by making them pay for boat-assisted water lessons for hours on end until they learn everything there is to know about kiteboarding. Land lessons are way easier and have their own safety advantages.fokiten wrote:Ah,gonewiththewind wrote:I learned how to waterstart with an instructor following me on a jetski. Kite falls down, and the instructor rides down and relaunches it. As much as I hate jetskis, this was one time when I loved them. Fly to Hatteras and go for some jetski lessons from REAL. Get a cheap ticket on Expedia, and maybe it will be cheaper and more fun than loads of lessons with your current instructors.

Unless I get crazy and decide to pull out some New Years cookies, I think these are the last cookies of 2011. I made these for a lady who makes me watch scary movies, who orders thai food for me at restaurants, and who is basically an incredible person (even though she's never eaten one of my cookies because she doesn't eat wheat); Angela. Her co-worker was promoted so she had me make some cookies for him of things he loves. She told me two things: Michael & Jackson.
Actually she told me Michael Jackson and
I was singing Michael's songs the whole time I was painting these cookies and I did a pretty mean moonwalk in the kitchen as I boxed these babies up. I also couldn't resist doing this:

Due to the nature of the device, communication would only be one way, as opposed to the two way communication available via the ICM.You would not be able to have changes at the panel propagate back to LinuxMCE, nor get sensor data from it.-Thom
Hay Thom. I am the designer of the AD2USB. Could you elaborate on the issue. I would very much like to see my device work with LinuxMCE I am a big fan of this project. I use LinuxMCE with zoneminder and adding support for my AD2USB would round things off nicely. The device itself is a two way device to the alarm panel. It can arm disarm see events such as RF sensors or Zone expanders it also supports Virtual RELAY devices for even more advanced access to the alarm sensors and states. Communication to the device is simple via /dev/ttyUSBXX or via my open source ser2sock.c program you canshare the AD2USB to your entire local network. Maybe I can send a unit or two to a few people who would be interested in building an interface? Re Sean M

RALEIGH � North Carolina voters prepared to decide whether to put a Republican in the Executive Mansion for the first time in 20 years and if President Barack Obama could turn a narrow victory four years ago in the state into a Democratic winning streak.
RALEIGH � North Carolina voters prepared to decide whether to put a Republican in the Executive Mansion for the first time in 20 years and if President Barack Obama could turn a narrow victory four years ago in the state into a Democratic winning streak.
Voting was to begin Tuesday morning at more than 2,700 precincts statewide, building upon more than 2.7 million ballots already cast through mail-in absentee voting and in-person early voting that ended last weekend.
Fewer than half of the votes tallied overall for this election were expected to be cast on Election Day, but get-out-the-vote efforts remained critical to tens of thousands of volunteers for Obama and for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
Obama hoped for a repeat performance in North Carolina, where he won by about 14,000 votes over John McCain in 2008 in putting the state in the Democratic column for the first time since 1976. While Obama's campaign essentially never left the state after the win, Republicans assembled its own large-scale voter contact program in recent months. Romney's path to the presidency needs a North Carolina victory more than Obama's routes.
The top statewide race was for governor, where Republican Pat McCrory sought to become the first GOP chief executive since Jim Martin left office in early 1993. The former Charlotte mayor lost in 2008 to Democrat Beverly Perdue, but she decided not to run this year and Democratic Lt. Gov. Walter Dalton became the nominee.
McCrory's name recognition and fundraising advantage helped him push his platform of fixing what he calls a government and economy broken by Democratic leaders in Raleigh. Dalton, who planned to visit polling places in Greensboro, Durham and Raleigh, said McCrory's ideas on education and the economy are shallow and would harm middle-class families. McCrory scheduled a stop Tuesday for a Charlotte voting precinct. Libertarian Barbara Howe also was running for governor.
North Carolina voters also were poised to elect a new lieutenant governor and choose seven members of the Council of State, all 13 members of the state's U.S. House delegation and the 170 members of the Legislature. They also will pick a justice on the Supreme Court, three Court of Appeals judges and scores of county commissioners and local bond issues.
The Supreme Court race between incumbent Paul Newby and Court of Appeals Judge Sam Ervin IV was marked by several outside groups that backed Newby collecting at least $2 million for television ads and mailers. While officially nonpartisan, an Ervin win would mean four of the seven justices are Democratic by voter registration. The state's highest court would remain 4-3 Republican with a Newby victory. The court is expected to hear redistricting litigation in the near future.
Civil rights and election reform groups said they would intensify efforts to watch polls Tuesday for voter intimidation, suppression and deliberate misinformation.
The state chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People wrote U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, state Attorney General Roy Cooper and another state agency leader asking them to order law enforcement to visit selected voter sites to maintain order. Cooper told the state NAACP in a response that State Bureau of Investigation agents and attorneys in his office were on standby should the state elections board request assistance.
State Board of Elections Executive Director Gary Bartlett said he expected overall voter turnout to be about 69 percent, or slightly less than the 69.53 percent � rounded to 70 percent � turnout in North Carolina in 2008 and was a record for recent North Carolina history.

Curiously I had a corrupt image yesterday which surprised me since the jpeg view was fine but clearly the raw file was corrupted. It looked fine in the thumbnail window of SPP and I batch processed all of the files to Tiffs and then imported into Lightroom. This one had a bright green overlay over the entire image - you could just discern that there was an image behind it. Going back to SPP the Review window also showed the same green overlay.
Also last night I was bracketing whilst the battery was very low and the camera froze. The only way to address this was to take the battery out and replace it with a fresh one, which appeared to corrupt not only the images I had just taken but several images taken just before. These images were just not recorded on the card. Strange. Earlier images on both occasions were recorded perfectly.
The fact that JPG is fine suggests that the problem is not battery charge nor SD card. (I ran Windows chkdsk on my card and my hard drive; no problem.) The constant pattern of failure - magenta and green divided by a horizontal line - strongly suggests a trouble point in the firmware processing that writes the strictly raw portion of the X3F file.The questions for Sigma Corp.: what is this error, and is it initiated by a characteristic of the data of a shot or by something in the camera environment, such as the user pressing a certain button at a precise moment while the preceding shot is still being processed?Were those five shots together in sequence or scattered over the 78?

So we went to dinner at an upscale bar/restaurant last night and saw they had Firestone Walker double Jack on tap so I ordered what I thought would arrive as a pint since it was priced at $8.00.The waiter delivered me an 8 oz snifter.....I laughed and thought it was a mistake, was I wrong? I realize its a 9.5% beer but at almost a dollar per oz I was little surprised-thoughts?
The servers at my brewery know to inform customers if a pour of a higher ABV beer is in a smaller glass. Should be a "common courtesy" thing, even in a fancy restaurant.

What type of CD-r do you use to store Anime?
The reason I'm wondering is because I'm debating if I need to switch brands myself, but I'm not sure which is the best one.
Currently I use FUJIFILM CD-R which I was really happy with, until I bought my latest spindle. FUJIFILM was the only brand that I could find that had very high recomendation's from everyone that tried them, so I paid extra ($15 for a 50 pack) to buy them. They have a protective blue coating on the bottom to help prevent scratches and I've never had a burn failure or lost data. But when I opened my new spindle I noticed some big changes. First the protection layer appears to be gone (although it's still advertised on the package), it feels more flimsy (probably from the lack of the extra layer) and it is now made in Taiwan instead of Japan. So now I'm worried about trusting my precious anime to these new cd-r's.
In the past ive tried imation and TDK since they were about $5 for a 50 pack but I had quite a few burning errors and even had a couple of disk that were unreadable after about 6 months, so I don't trust them.
Anyone have any recomendations?

Stay away from Imation and house brands (unless you don't mind burning the same thing 3 times to get a good burn). Haven't used Fujifilm or sony brand CDR before. HP is so-so (or was last time I used some), but over-priced.
I have had bad experiences with verbatem in the past, but that was back when 2x CDR was a big deal. Almost all of one of my packs was miscoated. I will knock it up to a small factory issue though and not a brand thing. I haven't tried anything of theirs recently.
I use Memorex and PNY typically. I prefer the ones with the black coating myself (helps protect against scratches). I have never had a problem with disks from either of these two brands.

I used Memorex and working on get through a pack of cd-rs from office max (At the time I need cd-rs). Out of about 40 cd-r from Memorex, 3 died and I have to reburn the cd. And for the office max ones I think I burned 30 cds and only 1 or 2 were bad and I had to reburn. Overall I haven't had much problems with my cd-rs.

The TDK brand is cruddy, it works well on my PC but badly in my CD player. And Kodak CDs are icky as well. Otherwise, I have had no problems with Memorex, Imation, Sony, no-name (no labels at all... it comes in a 100-pack)

I use Memorex religiously and have not had one single bad burn as far as saving video/mp3/data files. For straight play for music or video (playing in my car or dvd player), I use Sony.

yeah, it really sucks when the burned anime goes into nothing, i think i've tried a lot of brands as of now, but aside from the CD-R disks, the program you're using also counts. nero tends to give me more trouble than roxio and veritas.
anyhow, just steer clear of Optimum, Imation and Memorex in the most part. I recommand Maxell--i'm surprised no one mentioned this one, Phillips and Verbatim. i've almost never had any problems with these, esp. Maxell, not a single bad burns from this brand. but it's like really expensive compared to the other brands. worst come to worst, just buy a dvd burner, i like dvd-rws, i get to replace the old files if better editions of the show have been done, plus, they almost never 'die'.

Wow most of you buy bundled cd-r's and then find out that you wasted your money and are stuck with the messed up cd's. But as for me, i buy 1 cd of anybrand (thanks to a locol computer store which sells them by the cd's or bunch), and test if its good or not. So far the cd-r that i using now is by far the best i ever seen or used, and you can refer to my last post to see what it was.

for both CD-Rs (700MB "High Speed Recording) and DVD-Rs (4.7G "for Data") I'm using Imation and having no problems. The reason I chose Imation was because they were the cheapest here. The reason I chose DVD-R instead of DVD+R was the same reason (cheaper).
IMO, if you are in the market for a CD Burner, you might as well look at a DVD Burner instead. Last time I bought a CD Burner was when they cost $200, and now DVD Burners are just over $200. So from my point of view, I was paying about the same amount for more capacity.

Hi there,
my friend taught me a little about cd-rs, you have to make sure what cd manufacturer made the cdr you bought.
read this article here to know more about it
there are links to threads about which cd manufacturer is good at the bottom of the article
i personally trust prodisc only (but that doesnt mean that all cdrs made by them is good. I used to have some very cheap prodisc cdrs but because the dye is too thin or somethin, it came off after 1 month!!! i guess its you get what you paid for!!!)
hope it helps
a quick way to find out your cdr manufacturer is
put the blank cdr in
run your nero burning rom
click view
click recorder
click media info, media info window pops out
hold shift key and click refresh, the manufacturer name should pop out

Recall 13V123000
Incorrect Vehicle Weight Rating Label
Recall Details
Vehicles have a tire size/weight rating label to inform owners of the carrying capacity of their vehicle. These models are being recalled because the incorrect vehicle weight rating is shown on the information label. This could result in vehicle and tire overloading, increasing the risk of tire failure. Owners will be provided an updated vehicle weight label to correct this concern.
Our Quick Take
Southeast Toyota is recalling certain 2010 - 2013 Toyota & Scion vehicles because the vehicle weight information label is incorrect. This recall applies to Toyotas sold in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North & South Carolina.
What Should You Do?
Southeast Toyota will notify owners of affected vehicles beginning May 7, 2013. If you are not notified and feel you should have been, please contact your local dealer. They may ask for your vehicle identification number (VIN), so please have it handy when you call.

To me, nothing screams fun like it.
The 360 is what, $400 ($500 loaded)?
if the only difference between the different PS3's is the hard-drive, it's not worth it.
Can the 360 play Blu-Ray?
It's possible to wear out a DVD?
PS2's aren't designed to double as DVD players.
Quote from: Cory H. on May 9, 2006, 11:33 AMPS2's aren't designed to double as DVD players. Didn't you use your PS2 as your main DVD player for a time?
Who said it's not supposed to double as a DVD player?
Nintendo's gonna rock the house, and we're gonna find out exactly how much so in a couple of hours during their press conference. The name's a little goofy, but going from being interested in it when it was the Revolution, to being, uh, not interested in the Wii, is even more stupid than the name itself.
Other tidbits:Zelda: Twilight Princess will come in two flavors: GameCube and Wii, and both will be available day-and-date with the Wii, on the Wii launch. This is huge.

Difference between revisions of "Dolores Hidalgo"
Revision as of 03:07, 11 May 2007
Dolores Hidalgo [1] is a small colonial town of 60,000 inhabitants in the state of Guanajuato in Central Mexico. The full name of this town is Dolores Hidalgo, Cuna de la Independencia Nacional (Cradle of the National Independence)
The importance of this town lies in the fact that this was the starting point of the fight for Mexican independence from the Spanish empire in 1810, leaded by priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla. The quiet atmosphere in this town makes it really charming and without tourist crowds could make it a highlight in your trip.
Get in
To reach Dolores Hidalgo you should be able to get a bus from Guanajuato, San Miguel de Allende or Leon all of them are around 1 hour away. Taking a bus from Queretaro is also an option. From Mexico City you need to take a bus to any of the before mentioned cities and then to Dolores. The bus station is located at Hidalgo Street and Rio Dolores.
Get around
The town is really small, everything is within walking distance.
Every night there's a re-creation of the famous cry for freedom at the main square with light and sound effects.
Dolores is famous for its Talavera Ceramic (pottery) items such as tiles, vases, pots, etc. Experts say is one of the best places to buy this kind of goods. Next to the parish, there are several stalls selling small cacti, local liquors such as honey liquor or cacti liquor, and other local crafts. Buying from them will make their day.
Dolores is famous for its exotic ice cream flavors. Try them at the Main Square, there are two vendors, offering strange flavors such as Mole (chili and chocolate sauce), Beer, Strawberries and Cream, Avocado, etc. Each ice cream or "Nieve" in spanish is around $15 pesos.
Get out
Stay Safe
Dolores is a safe place for Mexican standards. Overall, people is nice and willing to help if you need directions.

Active Photonic Nanomaterials: From Random to Periodic Structures
Published on
Active photonic nanomaterials, which have high gain or large nonlinearity, are essential to the development of nanophotonic devices and circuits. In this talk, I will provide a review of our recent research activities related to the fabrication of active photonic nanomaterials and the development of photonic devices based on such materials. In particular, we focus on a wide bandgap semiconductor zinc oxide and fabricate a broad range of structures, from disordered to periodic, with various nanofabrication techniques. Lasing in the near-ultraviolet frequency has been realized in both periodic and random structures at room temperature under optical pumping. In addition, I will discuss briefly our work on the quantum dot microcavity lasers.
Hui Cao received her Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Stanford University in 1997. She is now an associate professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Northwestern University. She specializes in nanophotonics and quantum optics. Dr. Cao is the David and Lucille Packard Fellow (1999) and the Alfred P. Sloan Fellow (2000). She is the winner of the Early CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation (2001), and the Maria Goeppert-Mayer Award from the American Physical Society (2005). Dr. Cao coauthored one book, published three invited books, four review articles, and over 100 research papers. She is a vice chair of Technical Group "Photonic Metamaterials" of the OSA.

Every Christmas season, the Salvation Army of Marion County collects donations of food and money so it can provide holiday meals to between 700 and 800 needy families. It is a wonderful and heart-warming tradition that embodies the Christmas season — peace and goodwill to all men.
Every Christmas season, the Salvation Army of Marion County collects donations of food and money so it can provide holiday meals to between 700 and 800 needy families. It is a wonderful and heart-warming tradition that embodies the Christmas season — peace and goodwill to all men.
This year, however, the Salvation Army is struggling to fulfill its typical goal — through no fault of its own — and desperately needs the community's help so it can once again brighten the lives of the many less fortunate among us.
Maj. George Patterson, head of the Salvation Army in Ocala, told us that in recent years the organization largely has depended on two mainstay holiday food campaigns to put together the food baskets it gives out. First, there was the WESH-TV food drive that each year spent a day on the downtown square collecting food, which was given to the Salvation Army. Last year the WESH effort generated about 6,000 pounds of food, Patterson said. The second food campaign, T-Shirts for Turkeys, was sponsored by local radio station JOY-FM and provided some 600 donated turkeys that were used for the holiday food baskets.
Both the WESH campaign and the T-Shirts for Turkeys campaign, however, have been canceled this year, Patterson told us, and on the threshold of the holiday season the Salvation Army is now scrambling to figure out how it will provide holiday meals to hundreds of families on its list.
Over the decades, we at the Star-Banner have been humbled and proud to have been involved with and witnessed up close the Salvation Army holiday programs. Year in and year out we have seen the joy these boxes of groceries have brought, the uplifting effect they have on the families who receive them.
No, the Salvation Army is not the only organization in our community that provides holiday meals to the poor and disenfranchised. But it is the largest such drive and has been a stalwart throughout the generations in ensuring that those suffering most in our midst can celebrate the holidays with a feast of turkey and all the fixings.
The work of the Salvation Army is indisputably admirable and uplifting to the recipients of its charity. And we can think of no time of year when it is more meaningful. We ask our readers, if you can, to open your hearts during this joyous season and lend a hand — and a turkey or a bag of groceries — to the Salvation Army as it tries to help the unfortunate enjoy the Christmas season.
We have plenty to be thankful for in our community on this Thanksgiving Day 2012, including our Salvation Army. Let us show our gratitude by helping the Salvation Army help those in need this Christmas season.
If you can donate some food or money, please contact the Salvation Army's Center of Hope in downtown Ocala, just north of the courthouse. The address is 320 NW First Ave., Ocala, FL 34475, or call 732-8326 and ask for Alice Hodgkins, director of the center.

With the makeup of families changing as the third millennium presses into its second decade, the board of directors of the main group of YMCAs in Polk County has made a useful change in its rules. It allows family households to join with what had been called a family membership prior to Dec. 20.
With the makeup of families changing as the third millennium presses into its second decade, the board of directors of the main group of YMCAs in Polk County has made a useful change in its rules. It allows family households to join with what had been called a family membership prior to Dec. 20.
Rather than restrict such a membership to a husband, wife and children, the YMCA of West Central Florida now allows household groupings that include a single mother living with her parents, grandparents with grandchildren and same-sex couples, reported The Ledger's John Chambliss in an article Jan. 13.
The board oversees YMCAs in both Lakeland locations, Winter Haven and Poinciana, with a total membership of 9,956. It voted on the decision in November. The Lake Wales Family YMCA is governed separately by its own board.
The rule change was recommended by YMCA of West Central Florida board member Kevin Cook, who is director of communications for the city of Lakeland. He said the board had been discussing a membership-rule change during 2012, after listening to webinars about family-plan changes at other YMCAs in the nation.
West Central Florida memberships require $42 to join, plus a monthly fee. In the Lakeland locations, the family household monthly fee is $60 for two, and $68 for three or more. In Winter Haven and Poinciana, it is $50 for two, and $56 for three or more. For one adult, the monthly fee is $46 in Lakeland, and $32 in Winter Haven and Poinciana.
The impetus for change increased, Cook said, when a woman and her partner were denied a family membership, and then a man, his partner and his son were likewise denied.
Two of the people who were turned away by the YMCA made contact with the Rev. Andy Oliver, a United Methodist pastor in Lakeland.
The two applicants wrote to each board member about the matter. "Defining family so narrowly doesn't just hurt same-sex families, but it affirms a system of bigotry that hurts all families," they said in the letter. They also made phone calls and sent messages via Facebook.
Oliver said they focused on the national YMCA statement of diversity and inclusion:
"The Y is made up of people of all ages and from every walk of life working side by side to strengthen communities. Together we work to ensure everyone, regardless of gender, income, faith, sexual orientation or cultural background, has the opportunity to live life to its fullest. We share the values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility — everything we do stems from it."
Cook said there was extensive discussion about the issue among the board members, with most members who questioned the proposal agreeing to the change after talking it over.
The YMCA of West Central Florida's decision reflects the realities of today's society. That it was made by a nongovernmental organization, whose board of directors is made up of community volunteers, is encouraging.
The new policy speaks well of a group that wants to help others. It points toward a favorable Polk future in which fewer residents are excluded from the activities and mainstream of our communities.

The Property Casualty Insurers Association of America released information on what consumers need to know about flood insurance:
Regular homeowner's insurance covers damage from a storm, but not from flooding. You need to buy a policy from the National Flood Insurance Program to protect your house and property. (You can buy it through an insurance agent.)
Flood insurance covers physical losses from flood or flood-related erosion caused by waves or currents. The typical policy covers structural damage and damage to to air conditioners, furnaces, water heaters and any clean-up required. Consumers can also buy coverage for the contents of their homes.
If you recently bought flood insurance because of reports of Hurricane Sandy, you're out of luck, The policy doesn't kick in until 30 days after purchase.

Happy Halloween!: Vogue's Designer Jack-o'-Lanterns
Happy Halloween, everybody! If you've yet to carve a pumpkin (like me) or decide on your costume (like me), perhaps these fabulous pumpkins, carved by fabulous designers, might give you some inspiration…
Vogue had the grand idea to, in their words, "give designers and tastemakers carte blanche to trick out a jack-o'-lantern in their signature style". The results, from Shipley & Halmos, Nicholas Kirkwood, Warby Parker (all shown here), Steven Alan, Moss Lipow, Chrissie Morris, Richard Chai, and Waris Ahluwalia are sensational without seeming impossible. Shipley & Halmos' sleek white pumpkin is utter simplicity, Waris Ahluwalia's basket weave just requires patience, planning, and nerves of steel, and Moss Lipow proves that all you ever really need is a corncob pipe. Perhaps I can design my costume around a corncob pipe?
Check out the other great pumpkins designs on trick out a jack-o'-lanternVogue.
Have fun today, glamorous goblins!

What is that blue piece above him?
The Spudtrooper never did show up around here, so that was kind of disappointing. That said, I hope this R2 makes it to retail, I'd like to pick one up. I wonder if this will be the last of the Star Wars "tater" family?
I love these things, have to get this R2 for sure!I have seen the Spudtrooper once at Walmart, only time I have seen it.Tons of Darth around though, so with Spud only 1 per case, I assume theyjust kept getting bought up. Have to pick up one more (vader needs two flankinghim damnit!).LOL R2 Camel Toe!
Didn't I see a prototype somewhere of a Chewbacca Spud?
Chewy potatoes?In this picture:http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Conventions/Celebration_III/Hasbro&image=DSC00717.jpg&img=80&tt=There is (on the third shelf down, behind Darth Tater) what appears to be a Chewbacca Mr. Potato Head complete with fur, bandolier, and all. Can someone lucky enough to have been able to go to CIII tell me whether that's actually what this is? Any information would be appreciated. Now... discuss!
http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Conventions/Celebration_III/Hasbro&image=DSC00717.jpg&img=80&tt=Checking back through this thread, I find the above link. It was never confirmed but it certainly looks like a Spudbacca.
That certainly is something Chewbacca. I wouldn't be suprised if it is a "Spudbacca". But why won't they release it?!?
I wonder if there will be more in this line or not?

We pulled up to get some gas and we saw Tacori gassing up as well. We sparked up some small talk and she quickly opened up and told us how inundated she was with all her chores as a mommy of two kids. We sympathized with her and let her know she could always unwind with us since she had a couple hours to kill. When she felt comfortable enough, she sent all her errands to hell and stole a little time for herself. I could not believe two kids came out of such a hot body. I did not even see one stretch mark a

Audi A5 Prices Paid and Buying Experience
bamabillyp Posts: 5All - I have been researching and negotiating for several weeks on wanted to share what I had, and also ask others on their advice. I also have a really good lease software package I used from ExpertLease that is well worth the investment.
2010 A5 Premium with Nav with Wood Trim Package as the only option Auto
$699 and $599 doc / acquisition fee respectfully
$3,000 down
7% tax
$634 monthly payment (includes tax)
This brings the residual to about 52% and money factor to 0.0016
It seems the money factor goes down when you move to a package with Premium Plus. Also, Audi does offer Audi Loyalty that is $750 and also a Supplier Program that knocks off 6% from the MSRP.
While they say the residual and money factor are set by Audi, I don't believe it and think they have room to move.
This is in Atlanta and I'm wondering how this compares to others. I am coming off on Infiniti lease and they are offering a very, very aggressive program to keep me.0
2010 A5 2.0t Premium Plus

Paying $500 over invoice, including destination but not sales tax.
60 months at 4.9%, although perhaps there will be a special rate that I can take advantage of before the car is delivered (~12 weeks?).
Dealer offered $500 over invoice as a flat rate... didn't think I could do better than that for a factory order. Dealer is Tischer Audi of Silver Spring.0
jj316 Posts: 24Basic discount is 200 over invoice.0
If that's the case, it would have been nice to know that earlier. However, I've seen numerous people receive worse deals even in the past week. How did you come by this information0
bozster Posts: 5Can someone please give a helping hand and give me some prices for current lease on A5s including money factor and residuals.. I'm looking at Premium Plus pretty much stock with possibly added Drive Assist and upgraded wheels to the 5-Y-spoke ones. I'm also looking at S5 but I am completely behind the curve on prices these days and what people are paying.
I was looking at:
S5 4.2 FSI® Premium Plus with six-speed manual transmission and quattro®
Base MSRP$ 52,400
Options price$ 400
Destination charge$ 825
Price as Built*$ 53,625
and A5 3.2L Premium Plus with drive assist and upgrade wheels. ($ 46,275 MSRP)
This is in Arizona
I am interested how much would be a realistic lease rate for these models on 36 months/10k miles with zero down or in case of S5 possibly a $1k down.
Is $800 tax included too low? My current lease on Q7 3.6L quattro premium with panorama and rear-view camera package or whatever it is is $790 tax included with zero down 36months/12k miles for $58k MSRP.
I have a specific issue and have to trade in my Q7 and get an S5 with some luck for 36 months/10k miles. I was looking into some offers Audi Chandler gave me now and I can get an A5 (didn't specify which model but price was $44k including B&O sound and Nav) for same price I'm paying now for Q7 (tax included) with my Q7 trade-in.
It does seem a bit expensive to pay $790 (tax included) for an A5 with zero down and a trade in but I'm totally out of the loop.
Could someone chime in and help me out with some numbers here. What could be considered a good deal on S5 given my situation and whether or not A5 price I mentioned above is too steep? Is it completely unrealistic to hope for less than $790 a month (tax included) with $1k down and I'm giving my Q7 in?

chakote Posts: 122011 Audi A5 Prestige with S Line Package
$45k including destination pre tax which is invoice (order). Central California dealer.
My question is whether or not the euro decline will affect 2011 prices on the downside. Any thoughts?0
Looking for an idea on what type of discount I should get off this car. Sticker is $51,000. Dealer is offering $500 off plus an Audi "Loyalty" discount of $1,500. Seems like a lousy deal. Thoughts?0
Seems like a great deal compared to what I got quoted for same model. Sticker (~$51,000) minus $2,000. Live in Michigan. What do you think?0
pythonrules Posts: 1Just talked to a couple of local dealers on the phone and looks like the 2011 A5s can be had for invoice price. A sales person from one dealership at first tried to make me believe A5s are "hotter" then A4s, but as soon as I told them that a different dealer was willing to sell at invoice price he immeidately said they can match that.
So is invoice a resonable price? or there is more room for negotiating once I walk into the dealership with checkbook?
Also does anyone know how much is the previous year model incentive Audi offers for 2010 A5s? I know it's $1500 for A4s.
Thank you!
P.S. I am not a previous Audi owner.0
walcor34 Posts: 2Hello:
Does anyone know what the invoice/cost to dealer is for the A5 with the Titanium package?
From Audi's website I get an MSRP of $47,040 with 2.0 TFSI® Premium Plus ($41,490) meteor pearl gray ($475) Titanium ($1,650) Navigation ($2,550) and destination charge ($835)
Thanks so much.0
audivsbmw Posts: 1I'm interested in the A5, and test drove it as well as the BMW 328 just for comparison purposes. Now, I'm finding it difficult to justify paying more to lease the A5 when the 328 offers more (i.e., remote lock-out service, run-flat tires, more power) for less money to lease. I know I'm comparing the A5 coupe to BMW sedan, but BMW's coupe has same engine as the sedan. BMW coupe is comparatively priced compared to A5.
Thoughts? Advice? It's the A5 sleek exterior that keeps me holding on.0
It's a tough choice.... the A5 might be the best looking car on the planet... plus, Audi interiors are the best..
A couple of things, though...
1) Most BMW owners will tell you they wish they didn't have run-flats..
2) Lock-out service? The last time I locked my keys in the car was 1985.. :surprise:
3) No engine can match a BMW inline-6 for smooth, balanced power delivery....
If you want a coupe, and they are priced the same, it's hard to go wrong with either one... if you are leasing, the BMW might be substantially cheaper..
Did you get a good deal? Be sure to come back and share!

avocatdiaboli Posts: 10i'm currently in the same boat. my other concern with the BMW is driving in the snow (but here in the DC area, i'm not sure how much of an issue that actually is).
that said, are A5s really that hard to come by around here? I feel like i'm having to pull teeth to find one now! even used ones seem to come and go within a few days...would it be better if i were to look elsewhere? :confuse:0

Thanks gosox!0
chiquita Posts: 18Hi. can you kindly tell me what the apr % rate is for top tier if I BUY an 2012 A5 from AFS.
I have always leased car and thinking i might want to buy?
On the other hand, so i can compare, can you tell me if I leased what the current money factor and residual is for an 2012 A5 (prem plus?) for 36 mo lease and 15K miles? I i need more miles like 20K do they offer that?
I need to compare buying versus leasing with more miles.
when negotiating a price, are deals going under invoice currently? If I have loyalty and turning in a lease now, do I apply that loyalty amount in the negotiation price?? or negotiate , then subtract after that?
thank you so much, i know I'm asking a lot but thank you!!!!0
gavrik Posts: 44Hi,
this may not a proper venue for my question but here it is:
My Audi A5 came with BFGoodrich G-Force summer tire which makes my car sound like a freight train. I am looking to immediately replace it with all-season high-performance tire to avoid buying winter tires for mid-West driving. I am currently considering Bridgestone RE970AS tires. Does anyone have recommendations? Thanks.0
blumustang Posts: 9The dealer has an ask of $36k on a certified 2009 A5 Prestige with 33k miles. The car is coming back from a 36 month lease. I've been looking around online and most asks are around this price point and seem to be selling fairly quickly. The dealer is already playing up how special the car is and won't last as expected.
I'm hoping someone more experienced than me will be able to give me an idea of what my target price should be to purchase the car for?
I'm looking to do a trade in as well (05 Mustang with 30k miles) but that's a diff story.
Thanks guys!0
morrisoba13 Posts: 1Hi.
It's been a while since I've used Edmunds' Prices Paid forum. When I purchased my Acura TL-S 11 years ago, it played an instrumental part in me getting a good price so I'm hoping to get some insight once again. There are very few recent posts, but I'm hoping that my query will spark some answers.
I'm interested in purchasing an A5 with the following:
I tried using truecar.com, but after reading several reviews of the website, I don't feel confident. I'm hoping to get insight from the edmunds community regarding how much I should expect to pay. Thanks in advance!
sgibb16 Posts: 1Okay so what do you think is a fair price for this car its a 2012 that the "Owner" of the dealership has been driving and it now has 2800 miles on it. The salesman offered me 42631 before he revealed the actual miles on the car.

WASHINGTON (AP) ? Top Senate Democrats have prepared a plan to slice the Pentagon's budget by $3 billion a year in an attempt to avoid far steeper cuts that defense hawks warn would cripple the military.
Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., hopes to stage a vote on the measure before $85 billion in automatic budget cuts start to take effect in March. The bill is expected to produce about $120 billion in deficit savings over the coming decade, enough to block the automatic cuts through the end of the calendar year.
But Republicans are likely to block the measure because it contains a 10-year, $47 billion tax increase known as the "Buffett Rule" that would require people with million-dollar incomes to pay a minimum 30 percent income tax. The rule is named after billionaire investor Warren Buffett.
The measure would also raise about $24 billion by cutting much-criticized direct payments to farmers.
Republicans vow that they won't accept tax revenues as part of any deal with President Barack Obama to shut off the so-called sequester, which would require across-the-board cuts of 5 percent to domestic programs and 8 percent to the Pentagon. The cuts, called a sequester in Washington-speak, are the result of the failure of the 2011 budget "supercommittee" to agree on a deficit-cutting pact.
"Absolutely none. The president's accepted no spending cuts back in the fiscal cliff deal 45 days ago," Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla., said on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday. "Then you're going to get no revenue now."
House Republicans do not have a rival plan to shut off the cuts and instead point to a plan that passed twice last year, most recently by a slender 215-209 vote in December. The GOP now controls eight fewer seats in the House and there's hardening sentiment among some tea party Republicans to allow the sequester to take effect. So it's not clear that GOP leaders like Speaker John Boehner of Ohio could muster enough support to stop the sequester before it takes effect March 1.
Republicans have instead focused their energies on a PR campaign saying the sequester idea had its origins in the White House in the summer of 2011.
For its part, the White House says it supports a short-term measure to avert the sequester but hasn't offered any suggestions on what elements should be in it.
Democratic aides say the Senate plan is unofficial but is expected to be released later this week. The aides required anonymity since the plan isn't public.

DAVE BALL Don't Forget Your Alligator
It is a shame that 12″ vinyl is no longer a staple diet of music consumers, because the artwork (especially the cover) of this release is gorgeous and deserves a bigger 'canvas'.
So far as the recordings are concerned, the first point to mention is Dave's voice. It has matured beautifully over the years and is extremely pleasant to listen to – there is a certain warmth to it which puts the listener at ease.
Turning to the fourteen original compositions, we have an eclectic mix of songs that are in many respects a little 'left field' and at times, gloriously and eccentrically English. Surely we can all relate to the humorous fumbling described in the album's bookend, 'January Sales'?
The album opens with the fabulous 'Code Blue', which sets the tone. From here, 'Don't Forget Your Alligator' twists and turns, with splashes of rhythm and blues, before taking us back eighty or so years to a couple of gentle numbers which wouldn't be out of place at a twenties or thirties tea dance. The album concludes with some great rock guitar. Yet despite this mix of styles, it all hangs together so very nicely.
Throughout these delightful and eclectic recordings, we are treated to some clever and occasionally amusing lyrics by a man who is clearly as much a wordsmith as he is a composer.
Dave should rightly be proud of this album – it is a lovely collection of songs which have been permanently on my play list since the album arrived a week ago. I hope this won't be his last solo effort.
James McCarraher (April 2012)
…the main focus here is on the songwriting rather than playing, so the surreal lyrics of "The Madness Of George Pritchard" pack a vertiginous punch(line), while "Geriatric Slumbers" boldly updates the Carl Perkins-patented rockabilly, and if the veteran's not the best vocalist around the block, his rough voice is a perfect fit for the dirty blues of "Meltdown Shuffle".
A charming, fascinating and totally endearing missive from the genuine master – Dave Ball scores his goal. ****1/3
DME Music Site
There's a distinct whiff of nostalgia running through the first-ever solo album by former Procul Harum lead guitarist Dave Ball…
Listening to it is a bit like taking a stroll in Kew Gardens looking at all the different plant species: a bit of this and a bit of that. There's R&B, there's pop ballad style, rock ballad style, folk, and even rockabilly. Take your pick… an impressive if somewhat eclectic solo effort.
Claudia A, music-news.com (April 2012)
This debut CD is an eclectic mix of styles covering rock, R&B and some folky anecdotal musical comments about us Brits.

Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc (YFI.V)'s MACD Histogram reading is currently below the zero line, indicating a neutral or negative chart trend for the shares. Shares recently touched 0.10 on a recent bid, moving -0.010 in the most recent session.
Created by Thomas Aspray in 1986, the MACD Histogram is a visual indicator of the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line, which is a default 9 period ema of the MACD line. The histogram is an oscillator that moves above and below the zero line, just as the MACD line does. Keep in mind when using this oscillator, that it takes four mathematical steps from price itself to create the 4th derivative, the histogram: Price => two ema averages => MACD line = Signal line => Histogram. Which means it lags price quite a bit. But like all derivatives of price, it's much smoother than price itself.
If the MACD is above zero it helps confirm an uptrend; below zero and it helps confirm a downtrend. Zero line and Signal line crossovers are used as trade signals to enter and exit trending trades. Losing trade signals occur when crossovers occur in rapid succession due to choppy price action. Divergence shows when momentum is slowing, but it doesn't indicate when a reversal will occur (if it occurs). Combing different elements of each strategy makes the indicator more useful, such as taking buy signals following a bullish divergence. Using price and trend analysis will aid in determining which signals to take, such as only taking buy signals when a long-term uptrend is in place.
As we move deeper into the year, investors will be paying attention to which companies are well-positioned for future growth. Even if the current earnings reports are a mixed bag, investors can study which industries look they are taking the top spot. Many active investors may be focusing on which way estimates are trending heading into the company earnings release. Analysts will often make updates to projections shortly before and after the earnings numbers are provided. Many active investors may enjoy the volatility that comes with trading around earnings, but others will choose to let the heavy action pass before deciding which stocks to buy or sell next.
Turning to some additional key metrics, the 14-day ADX for Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc (YFI.V) is 13.93. Generally speaking, an ADX value from 0-25 would indicate an absent or weak trend. A value of 25-50 would indicate a strong trend. A value of 50-75 would signal a very strong trend, and a value of 75-100 would indicate an extremely strong trend. The Average Directional Index or ADX is a technical analysis indicator used to describe if a market is trending or not trending. The ADX alone measures trend strength but not direction. Using the ADX with the Plus Directional Indicator (+DI) and Minus Directional Indicator (-DI) may help determine the direction of the trend as well as the overall momentum. Many traders will use the ADX alongside other indicators in order to help spot proper trading entry/exit points.
Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc (YFI.V) presently has a 14-day Commodity Channel Index (CCI) of -212.12. Typically, the CCI oscillates above and below a zero line. Normal oscillations tend to stay in the range of -100 to +100. A CCI reading of +100 may represent overbought conditions, while readings near -100 may indicate oversold territory. Although the CCI indicator was developed for commodities, it has become a popular tool for equity evaluation as well. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of stock price movements. The RSI was developed by J. Welles Wilder, and it oscillates between 0 and 100. Generally, the RSI is considered to be oversold when it falls below 30 and overbought when it heads above 70. RSI can be used to detect general trends as well as finding divergences and failure swings. The 14-day RSI is currently at 35.42, the 7-day stands at 22.60, and the 3-day is sitting at 6.17.
Taking a peek at some Moving Averages, the 200-day is at 0.21, and the 50-day is 0.13. Dedicated investors may be looking to employ another tool for doing technical stock analysis. The Williams Percent Range or Williams %R is a technical indicator that was designed to measure overbought and oversold market conditions. The Williams %R indicator helps show the relative situation of the current price close to the period being observed. Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc (YFI.V)'s Williams Percent Range or 14 day Williams %R presently is at -100.00. In general, if the reading goes above -20, the stock may be considered to be overbought. Alternately, if the indicator goes under -80, this may show the stock as being oversold.
