"ANOTHER THINKING HUMAN ENGAGED IN SEEKING TRUTH" (Edwin Kagin, 2008)
To Unidentified Recipients:
Here is the lawsuit filed by American Atheists and eleven named plaintiffs: http://www.edwinkagin.com/First_Amended_Complaint.pdf
In the past TWO DAYS, American Atheists, and my office, have been flooded with hate emails. To be sure there have been some nice emails, but they are far outnumbered by the hate filled ones.
They are not calculated to make Atheists feel comfortable in our free land.
I am not redacting the contact information of the senders. If they want to act like this, they should not expect privacy. You may want to write some of them.
The following speak, so to speak, for themselves.

No one really cares what such a small, insignificant group such as yours wants. Atheists are such a small minority, why should the rest of America be ruled by what you believe? Do you really have nothing better to do than to waste so much time and so many resources on fighting this? My goodness. Go volunteer for a local homeless shelter or something if you have this much time on your hands instead of letting your life be ruined by hate. On your death bed, do you really believe you'll look back and think you made a difference by doing nothing more than fighting to have something, that so many people believe in, and find comfort in, removed from government? Find something to do so that will make you a productive member of society and not just a hemorrhoid.

You do not believe that you were created and the infinite complexity of you DNA and RNA and protein folds are working correctly.

Hey Edwin:
This is very simple. If you do not like America, One Nation Under God, Go to a godless country. Any other country is fine. But rest assured, when you die, which from your website picture, isn't to far off, you Will SEE Jesus Christ. I know you don't believe me, you don't have to. But you will see him. I will pray for your conversion before you die, but it still is very simple. Go to russia or any other place & they will tell you what to do, where to go, and how much you have. If you look for Jesus you will find him. Hey, even the devil believes in God. So you must not believe in him either. There is good & bad in the world. How you choose to accept these things will tell you where you will be when you die. Praying for your conversion, I am Jesse Barczynski

Dear Mr Kagin,
Dear sir, I feel sorry for you and the way you spend your time pushing your self serving beliefs on the rest of the God believing world. I have to wonder what went so wrong in your life that you feel the need to try and erase those 3 letters that are a common binder for all walks of life, even people like yourself that wake up forcing themselves to believe theres no God in this entire picture of life and then go out of their way to do whatever is possible to make sure those letters are erased for all others to see.
I guess what makes me sad about people like yourself is the simple fact that in this day and age and of all the things going wrong in the world let alone just your place of living you feel the need to use your energy and mind to bring the end to the word God instead of trying to better the living conditions of the poor, the hungry and even the homeless. Things that I'm sure are more worthy of your time and talents.
I'm also sure that this isnt the first nor the last time your going to be chastised for your beliefs and I'm just as sure that this is only getting you abit hot about "your" rights not to believe, but tell me, who made you the watchdog of whats right or wrong with those 3 letters of our alphabet... G..O..D...
I'm going to go now but I want you to know this, before I close my eyes today to get some sleep I'm going to ask God to try and understand you so that you too can someday ask his forgivness as you get ready to depart this sad world we live in.

Dear Edwin, I respect the face that you are an atheist but why must you degrade people who believe in god. Does the sign in Kentucky really piss you off that much? Say you do get it removed will the world be a better place? Why don't you stop bitching and complaining and do something that is worth -while instead of leading a crusade against god. Yelling long enough and loud enough does not validate facts. Whether we consider the origin of the Solar System, man and animals, plants and rock formations, or read "Evolution," F.H.T. Rhodes book of "proofs," the theory of evolution never sprouted a leg to stand on.
Evolution is not fact! It is not even science!
It cannot stand up to the first two laws of Thermodynamics and the process has only been theorized, but never proved. As a propaganda device devised by those who rejected God while seeking human answers for man's origin, it's a classic. Humanistic evolution is a religion and I agree that it needs to be expelled from school.
In a society that trumpets diversity, open forums and free-thinking, why has creationism been disallowed in the unleveled arena of most public educational systems? Granted it takes faith to believe that, "In the beginning (time) God (intelligent designer) created the heaven (space) and the earth" (matter and activated these with light. But to believe that nothing packed itself into a compact ball of nothingness (why?) and exploded (how? by what?) thus producing hydrogen and helium (from where?) causing meteors (from what?) to fly into frictionless space spinning in different directions thus accidentally forming our perfectly balanced and ordered universe so that after billions of years man evolved from a rock or some primordial soup and somehow whole swimming in water (?) adapted a lung and limbs to crawl up on "land?" that takes faith, a whole lot of faith!

Subject: Kentucky Office of Homeland Security.
Do you have nothing better to do in life? I am just wondering as I read an article regarding your filing suit to remove part of a state anti-terrorism law requiring Kentucky's Office of Homeland Security to acknowledge that it can't keep the state without God's help. I mean really, why on Earth do these words really matter to you. Are there not better things in life to deal with, like loving your children, your grand-children, maybe your neighbor, than filing idiotic suits against the Kentucky State government?
I am not a practicing religious man. I have had my bouts with wondering if there is a God. To this day I wonder if there is a God and have always thought of the Big Bang as the true origin of life. This just makes since to me. To me that is my belief and others have theirs. Does it really kill you to let other people believe something different than you? Do you really think you are going to "teach somebody" something by filing this lawsuit? Is it really worth your time to work on this? I mean really, what are you going to get out of it?
I guess I am just writing because I am confused as to why someone would waste one minute of their life trying to do something like this when there is so much more out there to do. If you are bored, I have plenty of extra things that I can not get done because I am running around providing for a family of five. Please feel free to come visit me in Lexington and I will find something more meaningful for you to do with your time.

basic moralistic structure...period. Godless soceties are thought of as evil
throughout history, and any evil empires such as Rome or Nazi Germany
were athiests like yourselves who used religeon to control the masses
because it was the fastest way to reach their goals of complete dominance.
You think your enlightened but truly enlightened people strive for higher
knowlege without petty persuits such as court battles over what a group of
people can display on a wall! It in no way encumbers your rights or has any
effect on your personal being. It's a frivolous endevour and certainly not one
of higher thinking. All societies who were a god unto themselves quickly
digressed into anarchy and self destructed. If you are able to think moments
before you die you will come to the realization that all your efforts to dispell
so called "mythical creatures" has been in vain and you'll close your eyes

The Constitution of the United States, in
spite of the activists on the Supreme Court,
provides for freedom OF religion, not freedom
FROM religion. The Constitution does not give
rights; it guarantees ones given by GOD to all
men which cannot be touched or taken away,
even by you. Your ignorance and arrogance is
astounding. You want people to accept your
beliefs, but you are intolerant of others'
beliefs, what is the majority of America and
is its very foundation - Christianity. There
were even aethiests among the Founding
Fathers, and Jews, and others. But BY GOD,
they didn't demand God to be wiped from
society or public. In fact, they credited and
gave thanks to GOD for their freedom,
Christians and non-Christians alike. That
means you, too. Don't like it, leave the
country. But I bet you'll be the first ones
screaming for someone to protect you when
there's another terrorist attack. Are you
going to demand they turn from God first
before they protect you? Or are you going to
let them turn to the One who can protect them
as they save your sorry asses?
I'm all for your freedom to do as you wish. I
am not for your demands that I cannot worship
in public as I wish and as is guaranteed under
the Constitution.

Comment: I was just reading about the Law suit filed
about Kentucky law referring to relying on
God......I must say I am sick to death of
these frivolous lawsuits! Our constitution
was based on the Christian belief that Our
trust as a nation is placed in God. It gives
citizens a choice as to what they wish to
believe but it does NOT give them the right to
change its foundation! I think if you don't
like the fact that our country was formed
UNDER God then leave it and go somewhere
else. We are one Nation under God! That is
what our forefathers believed. They would be
rolling over in their graves to see what we
have done to this country. If we kept our
sights on what our foundation was, we would
not be in the state we are now. You do not
have to believe, but don't try to change what
the rest of us do believe in and that is the
original trust in God. God has not destroyed
this country...we have. Seems no atheist has
any trouble spending the money we use with the
words IN God WE Trust. That is unless God is
money to you. It just makes me angry that in
a world in such despair people like you have
nothing better to do than file law suits for
such nonsense. Believe what you want, but
leave our foundation alone! In God we trust
and apart from him we can do nothing. Do you
believe in Satan? If you do then you have to
believe in God. Even Satan believes in God.
If you do not like the laws that reference God
then go somewhere else. We need to take our
country back to where it was originated.

pointless. It just sounds childish. Second,
this anti-symbolism campaign for Christmas.
This attitude is also held by the ACLU. Here
is why it is a danger to us as a nation. You
want to take all the Christian symbology away
from the season according to the article on
your site. I get it. You think there is no God
because you can't prove it, and the Bible has
to many "false hoods". Like I said, I get it.
Now, what if we completly abolished all things
christmas? Why even have the holiday since
none of its' real anyway? I mean the date was
taken from the pagens right? Destroy the myth
of Christmas, according to you, then Santa
Clause, who is only a German interpretation
for children to acknowledge God. (everyone
gets a gift) Now after that, imagine how our
economy would stagnate even further? If any
atheist recieves or accepts a gift during the
season, you are a hypocrite. Shouldn't you
just sit back and revel in the fact that you
know the right answer to life and everyone
else is lost? Isn't that enough? However,
thank you for your efforts to abolish God. By
being visible in the media, you strengthen the
resolve of Christians in this trying time.

disagree with your organization pushing your beliefs on the majority
of Americans.
If you are a scholar at all, you will see that the United States of
America was founded upon Christianity. There are many references to
God in the Constitution and other founding documents.
If you feel strongly about removing God from the foundation of the
USA, I would suggest that you build your own form of government
outside of the USA.

The humans are not doing to good a job. Since
God was taken out of our schools, the country
as a whole has went to the pits. Check out
crime rates, and all kinds of lawlessness
since Madelyn O'Hare had her way.
The bottom line is, as Christians, we are
taught to love, not hate, to help, not destroy.
We do not infringe on your right to be a non
believer, why can't you just turn you head
when you see any kind of Christian symbol or
scripture. It certainly would not hurt to ask
for devine help in these terrible times that
are facing our nation.
In Christian love.

Comment: Separation of church and state is a primary
clause in the Constitution. That's a given.
But, even if their is no God, Budda, Mohammed
etc. humans, by definition, must believe that
there is something beyond death, or what is
the point of life. To be an atheist makes
life, meaningless. Atheist are a small
minority. but have the power of the
Constitution behind them. But, this country
was founded on religious freedom and majority
rule. You can try to exclude a God from public
life but you can't stamp it out. It's to
pervasive. You atheist must be very unhappy
people having nothing to believe in.
Personaly, I don't care one way of the other.

You want a divison between state and God but you
seem to forget that the tax dollars that purchase

If I believe in a supreme being and I die to find

Comment: Hello I was wondering what your beliefs are so
I decided to read a little on your website.I
am probably wasting my time but you should
really read this. You make logical points but
I am a Christian and there IS a GOD, as you
know he sent Jesus here to earth to pay for
what you and I do wrong. I see what you
believe but our belief is based on faith and
you have to have it. Please explain to me if
anyone even reads these messages, how a lady
in our church could be eaten up with cancer,
go through a few treatments and now be cancer
free. Yes the chemo took care of it, I know
that's what you will say and it may have bit
also it may have been GOD. Another work of GOD
was a lady we knew was going to have to have
both legs removed because of plaque build up
in her arteries, both legs now. When the
doctor checked a couple of days later before
surgery, no plaque could be found in the lady
anywhere, it's called faith and I will pray
you will find it and Jesus also. May GOD help

Comment: I understand you have your "non-beliefs", and
I respect that. What I have a problem with is
the fact that you are trying to take away OUR
GOD just because you do not believe. If you
do not like seeing his name or believe in him,
then don't read anything that contains his
information. By you filing lawsuits about
this that and the other, to have it removed
from this and that, you are violating MY
Constitutional Right as well as my children,
family and friends. Is it going to take
someone filing a suit against your group for
being Unconstitutional by preventing us from
practicing our beliefs and taking our GOD
away. We can all live here together, you
worship yours and we will worship ours.
Again, if you do not like God or believe in
his, just remove yourself from where he is and
do not read items that represent him.

Comment: I am not trying to step on anyones toes I am
just tryin to understand your positions. You
are sueing the KY government to get rid of
the "God's help" out of the Homeland Security
creed or whatever. I am just wondering Why?
What is it hurting? I take no position on the
issue because I could really care less one
way or the other.
I guess the irony is that in the constituion
there is a seperation between church and
state. But the underlying problem is that it
is the state who decides when that sepeation
applies. Sort of an oxymoron I guess.
So in all seriousness (without trying to
patronize or condescend) why do you care if
the word God is in something or not. Or in
the schools. It seems to me that people (who
are atheist) could just teach their children
their values and beliefs and have them ignore
it. At the same time faithful people could be
able to remove the word with no problem. From
what I understand faith is a feeling not a
visual thing.
Either way you look at it one side is forcing
their beliefs on the other. The pro-God side
by trying to keep it in the open therefor
making the atheist confront it. While the
other (atheist side) is forcing the pro-God
side to give up their right to see it. I mean
sometimes concessions need to be made. Who is
really hurt if God is removed from public
buildings? Also who is really hurt if it
As I said I don't care either way but I would
like a response please because it intrigues
me to no end.

want. You can also speak out publicly in
support of your stance on any subject you
like. I'm pretty sick of ANY vocal minority
trying to impose its view of the world on the
rest of the world, though. America has long
considered itself to be a Christian nation;
our founding fathers often referred to God, as
do the documents that formed our very young
nation. We indeed have freedom of religion
here, and that includes the freedom from
religion, but nothing in the Constitution says
our government is forbidden from mentioning
any opinion about the existence of God, or any
gods, or asking for God's help under the
presumption there may be a God. What we are
guaranteed is that our government will not
force a religion on us, or allow only one
favored religion to be practiced. That's it.
Get used to it, and get over it. Specifically,
if the Commonwealth of Kentucky wants to ask
God to help its Homeland Security group do
their jobs, let them. It really doesn't hurt
you at all if they do, and while logic is on
your side, they could still be right. I say
let's accept help from whatever quarter and
pick nits later.

There are more. There are a lot more.

The people who wrote these emails can vote and they can sit on juries.
It is okay to be an Atheist.
It is okay not to believe in god.
Get real clear on that.
It is not okay for the government to try to establish a religion.
Be afraid; be very afraid.
What can you do? You can write letters to the paper. You can talk to people.
You can send us money to help protect your rights.

Matt Lauer stopped by Late Night With Seth Meyers on Monday, July 27, and explained why he has no intention of getting on Donald Trump's bad side.
Appearing alongside his co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, the 57-year-old Today show star talked about his recent phone interview with Trump, 69, who was less than pleased with Today's coverage of his headline-making comments about Sen. John McCain.
"I think he was upset with the media in general, but he tended to make it a little personal," Lauer said of the presidential hopeful. "Look, Donald Trump is getting all the attention right now on the Republican side because this is his resume. This guy is great, he's a showman!"
"He's got a lot of P. T. Barnum in him and he knows how to promote things," Lauer continued of Trump. "He's done it on television with his businesses for years, and so at the moment, it's hard for the other candidates to get any attention whatsoever because Donald, I think some would say, is sucking the oxygen out of the room."
Trump is dominating the conversation in a big way, edging out competitors like Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, and Scott Walker in the headlines.
"He's really shaking things up. He's forcing them into places where they're not comfortable," Lauer said of the direction Trump is sending the GOP candidates. "I have nothing bad to say about Donald Trump — especially if he watches this show! I don't need that aggravation, I really don't, no."

Slim Down the Easy Way
Lose Weight Naturally and Slim Down
Many dieters looking to lose weight want a quick fix to slimming down. However, wasting time on fad diets won't give dieters the results they truly desire: long term weight loss. To slim down for long term results, how about trying to lose weight naturally by following the basic weight loss formula instead of trying the newest fad diet?
The weight loss formula is easy…simply eat fewer calories than you burn.
That's it!
However, if you prefer a guideline on how to lose weight naturally, follow these 5 easy weight loss tips below.
1. Eat Less: Again, the basic weight loss formula is to eat fewer calories than you burn. No need to cut out bread, steer clear of butter and good oils (like olive oil), or to eat only meat. Just simply eat less. However, you do want to make it a point to cut down on foods high in sugar, calories, and fat. Any extra calories in your diet your body does not need or consuming too much sugar and fat can lead to unwanted weight gain. Therefore, be mindful of the types of food you eat (like junk food and fast food) and begin to learn how to lose weight naturally by eating less.
2. Eat Healthier: Sure eating less can help a dieter to slim down, but why not take it a step further by making it a habit to eat healthier too? For example, increase your intake of fresh fruit and vegetables, eat more leans meats, fresh fish, whole grains, legumes, and once more, limit your intake of foods high in sugar, calories, and fat. At the end of the day, losing weight really boils down to the kinds of food you eat. Accordingly, take an opportunity to learn how to eat healthier as a lifestyle change instead of treating it as a onetime event that you find on fad diets.
3. Drink More Water: Do you ever read the nutrition label on the back of your foods? How about on the back of your beverages? One can of soda for instance, can be as high as 160 calories. Drink 2 of those per day and that's an extra 2,240 calories per week. On the other hand, if you replaced drinking 2 cans of soda per day with a glass of water, you could lose up to 2.56 pounds per month. Multiply that by 12 months and that's 30.72 pounds lost in one year! All from simply replacing a high calorie beverage with water. If your goal is to slim down, then choosing to drink a glass of water instead of a sugary beverage is a wiser choice.
4. Exercise More: There are many health benefits of exercising and maintaining weight (which is what you want for successful weight loss) is one of them. Therefore, to slim down and keep the weight off long term, be sure to exercise more. However, if you dread the idea of working out, then I recommend exercising with a friend. It's fun! Besides, even if you can't find someone to exercise with, who says you have to go inside a gym to get in a good work out? There are other activities you can do to burn excess calories for fat loss like hiking, biking, swimming, dancing, cycling, and rollerblading to name a few. If you desire to lose weight even faster, be sure to strength train with weights because lean muscle burns more fat.
5. Regularly Weigh Yourself: It's not necessary to weigh yourself everyday or even every week and obsess over the numbers on the scale. However, you do want to regularly use a scale as a weight loss tool to help ensure you DIDN'T gain weight. Unfortunately, as you embark on your weight loss journey to slim down, there will be some weeks where you won't lose a single pound. That's OK and therefore, no need to get alarmed. As long as you didn't gain any weight, you are making great progress! That's one of the secrets of thin people and why they are able to stay so thin year after year. They regularly weigh themselves as a means of weight control. Consequently, if a thin person notices they have gained a few unwanted pounds, they quickly take action by doing the weight loss tips mentioned above and slim back down to their desired size and weight.
Now you try it!
Simply follow the 5 easy weight loss tips mentioned in this article to slim down and lose weight naturally for long term results.
Good Luck!

"Bring up something easy to drink," my wife said as I headed down to the cellar, "so we can sip it while we watch the figure skating." Knowing her tastes, she did not want something froufrou, despite the ice-skating reference. She likes ripe reds, so I headed for the Shiraz section and plucked a bottle of Mollydooker Shiraz South Australia The Boxer 2006.
I had an ulterior motive. Nearly four years old, the bottle should demonstrate whether this winery's entry-level reds could age. Big Aussie reds like Mollydooker's have come in for considerable flak these days because they're not supposed to age. This one wasn't designed for the cellar, but three-and-a-half years after bottling it had tamped down some of its youthful baby fat and become a lovely, spicy, meaty glass of red.
It had aged nicely, its berry and cherry flavors coalescing well with the smoky, peppery nuances that were there originally. It wasn't doing any quads, but it glided as smoothly as Evan Lysacek. 90 points, non-blind. And darned if those skaters weren't even more impressive after a couple of glasses.

"ICE, ICE baby"… please don't come knocking on my door!
July 20th, 2009 | Deborah Hammonds
>In late April, the Obama Administration announced a refocused worksite enforcement strategy aimed at reducing the demand for illegal employment in the US and protecting employment opportunities for the nation's lawful workforce. Unlike the Bush Administration's worksite enforcement policy, which focused on large-scale raids designed to arrest and deport undocumented workers, the Obama Administration's intention is to prioritize criminal and civil actions against employers that knowingly hire undocumented workers over actions against the illegal workers themselves. Little was said, however, about how the strategy would be implemented, but it is clear now that the Obama Administration means business.
On July 1, the Department of Homeland Security's enforcement arm, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), launched a new initiative, investigating compliance with employers' Form I-9 obligations, issuing an unprecedented 652 Notices of Inspection (NOIs) to businesses nationwide. The number of NOIs issued by ICE on this one day was more than the 503 total number of NOIs issued by ICE in all of Fiscal Year 2008. This action by the Obama Administration signifies that ICE will be inspecting employers' hiring records to determine whether or not they are in compliance with US immigration law.
All employers are required to prepare and retain (for three years after the employee's date of hire or one year after the date that the employee is discharged) the Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, for each new employee they hire, regardless of that individual's citizenship. The employer must examine the new hire's identity and employment authorization document(s) to determine whether they reasonably appear on their face to be genuine and relate to the person presenting them. Once the employer has accepted the documents, the information is recorded on the Form I-9. Form I-9s can be retained in paper, microfilm, microfiche or electronically.
Employers have at least three days after receiving a NOI to provide the inspecting office with the requested Form I-9s for all employees employed during the period covered by the audit at the location where the office requests to see them. If it is more convenient, employers may waive the three-day notice. In addition, employers may also request an extension of time to produce the forms. The requesting office will likely also ask to review payroll or personnel records. Although no administrative subpoena or warrant is necessary to inspect Form I-9s, an employer can insist upon such a document before granting ICE access to other personal information. Note that a refusal or delay to the presentation of the Form I-9s for inspection is considered a violation of the Immigration Reform and Control Act's (IRCA) retention requirements and may result in the imposition of civil money penalties. It is advised that employers obtain counsel prior to the NOI in order to prepare for the external audit. Further, employers should retrieve and reproduce only the documents specifically requested by the inspecting office, review and make corrections to the Form I-9s, where appropriate and abide by IRCA's antidiscrimination obligations during the audit process.
Remember, an employer's failure to complete or retain Form I-9s may lead to more serious charges, like knowingly hiring undocumented workers, resulting in significant civil and criminal penalties. In fact, on July 7, Krispy Kreme Doughnut Corporation reached a $40,000 fine settlement with ICE after a Form I-9 audit revealed that the company had employed dozens of undocumented workers at one of their doughnut factories in Cincinnati, Ohio. Los Angeles-based clothing manufacturer American Apparel, Inc received a notice from ICE that the agency has been unable to verify the employment eligibility of approximately 200 current American Apparel employees because of discrepancies in the employees' I-9 Forms, according to the manufacturer in a July 1 press release. ICE also notified the company that, based upon its review, approximately 1,600 other current employees do not appear to be authorized to work in the United States. This represents approximately one-third of American Apparel's workforce. The investigation is ongoing.
More information on these matters can be found in a recent white paper published by CCH.

Ghost Recon Wildlands claims Japanese No.1, while Switch sales fall 81%
Ubisoft's Ghost Recon Wildlands has displaced The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in the Japanese Top Ten to claim last week's No.1 spot, according to the latest data from Famitsu.
Ubisoft's open world title sold 94,017 copies in its first week on shelves, while Breath of the Wild sales for Switch fell by 75 per cent week-on-week. The Wii U version of Breath of the Wild also dropped from No.4 to No.7 last week, selling 17,682 units. That's a decline of 61 per cent week-on-week. Altogether, though, Breath of the Wild still sold 65,614 units in its second week, which would have put the game at No.2 if taken together.
However, with both formats ranked separately, it was Square Enix's Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix that took the No.2 last week, shifting 65,214 units.
Horizon Zero Dawn dropped to the No.4 spot last week, after a 56 per cent decline in sales week-on-week, and 1-2-Switch came in at No.5. Despite a 72 per cent drop in sales week-on-week, 1-2-Switch is still the second best-selling Switch title in Japan, with Super Bomberman R pushed down to No.9 after a fall of 75 per cent week-on-week. Meanwhile, Dragon Quest Heroes I & II for Nintendo Switch and Puyo Puyo Tetris were pushed out of the Top Ten altogether, but Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 Professional made a come back last week to scrape in at No.10.
In the hardware charts, the Nintendo Switch still reigns supreme, selling 63,420 units in its second week. That's quite the comedown from the week before, where it sold 330,637 units (a fall of 81 per cent week-on-week), but it's still a long way out in front of Sony's PS4, which sold 28,917 units last week after a 6 per cent drop week-on-week.
Here's the Japanese Top Ten in full for the week ending March 12th:
1. Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands, PS4, Ubisoft, 94,017 (New)
2. Kingdom Hearts HD I.5 + II.5 Remix, PS4, Square Enix, 65,214 (New)
3. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Switch, Nintendo, 47,932
4. Horizon: Zero Dawn, PS4, Sony Interactive Entertainment Japan Asia, 32,068
5. 1, 2, Switch, Switch, Nintendo, 22,455
6. NieR: Automata, PS4, Square Enix, 18,108
7. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Wii U, Nintendo, 17,682
8. Pocket Monster Sun/Moon, 3DS, Pokemon, 13,990
9. Super Bomberman R, Switch, KONAMI, 9,681
10. Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 Professional, 3DS, Square Enix, 8,394
And here are the hardware figures for the same period:
Nintendo Switch, 63,420
New Nintendo 3DS LL, 19,347
PS Vita, 8,819
PS4 Pro, 5,648
New Nintendo 3DS, 697

2015 NHL All-Star Gameby Staff Writer / Montréal Canadiens
COLUMBUS – Carey Price surrendered four goals on 16 shots at the 2015 NHL All-Star Game, but Team Foligno ultimately dropped a 17-12 decision to Team Toews at Nationwide Arena on Sunday night.
Ryan Getzlaf (ANA), Jakub Voracek (PHI), Patrice Bergeron (BOS) and John Tavares (NYI) all managed to beat the Canadiens netminder during his time between the pipes in the first period, but the four-time All-Star was anything but disappointed in his performance.
"I only let in four goals. I'm fairly happy with that," offered Price, who will return to Montreal on Monday morning before the Habs resume play on Tuesday night against the Dallas Stars at the Bell Centre. "It is what it is. You're just out there trying to mix in a couple of saves. There's no pressure on us, so you're just out there enjoying yourself."
Price certainly did that over the last three days, mingling with some of the league's top stars during the Fantasy Draft, Skills Competition, and especially over the course of Sunday night's tilt, too.
"I had a lot of fun here," mentioned Price. "I think Columbus did a great job of supporting this event. They were awesome hosts."
Now, the 27-year-old is ready to get back to the business of the NHL regular season with 37 games remaining before the start of postseason play.
"It's the push towards the playoffs. Our goal is to get to the dance," stressed Price, who is currently in the Top 5 in wins, save percentage and goals-against average among all NHL goaltenders. "We just have to be consistent from here to the end of the year to do that."
Team Foligno forward Ryan Johansen of the Columbus Blue Jackets took home NHL All-Star Game MVP honours, registering two goals and four points in front of the hometown fans. Voracek, however, led all players with six points on the night for Team Toews, while Tavares lit the lamp four times for Toews' contingent as well.
Interestingly enough, Sunday night's game was also the highest scoring contest in NHL All-Star Game history, surpassing the old record of 26 goals scored in North American's 14-12 victory over the World squad in 2001 at the Pepsi Center in Denver.
Team Toews' 17 goals were also the most ever scored by one team in an NHL All-Star Game, one more than the Prince of Wales Conference's total in a 16-6 win over the Clarence Campbell Conference in 1993 in Montreal.

Let's see, that makes ... oh, for now I'll just say that there are many projects a few which you know about. Someday I'll fess up to all there are ... I can never get enough.

is it really soft after laundering?ReplyDelete
sorry, that probably seemed like a dumb question but i can't afford to spend a lot on yarn, and this particular yarn does not seem soft while still wound in a skein. so i was wondering.ReplyDelete
thank you
Oh I love the pattern and the colors you have chosen..looking forward to seeing the finished project.ReplyDelete
Hello my sister...oh this is so pretty too, you have the eye for colors. I like this wool eater pattern and yet have not ever took the plundge...I think it's because of the pesky hexy, I'm traumatized.....a moving hook is a happy hook.ReplyDelete
Love the purples and white, Gloria! I, too, use a fair amount of Red Heart yarn. For one thing, it's the most affordable, and as you said once it's washed and dried it isn't nearly as stiff as when we are crocheting with it. :)ReplyDelete
Wow, I love all that purple! It's going to be so pretty!ReplyDelete
Beautiful colors! Red Heart yarn is quite inexpensive. I often use their thread, but I haven't tried their yarn. I should give RH a try.ReplyDelete
Beautiful colors!!! I can't wait to see it all done!ReplyDelete
I too am thinking of the people of Boston!!\
xo Kris
Even I cannot answer that question:) the moment I am done 60% of current project I start thinking about next few more new projects.ReplyDelete
Your purple combination looks nice! :) does this pattern really eat lot of wool?waiting to see it completed.
Also, I could see a centerpiece in the image. Is that a between meal centerpiece? I was thinking of making one.
Hi Glor.. Love those colors and they look great in the wool eater.. My prayers and thoughts are also with those in boston at this time.. Blessings... :)ReplyDelete
Oh I love, love, love your new afghan. I am gonna hunt down the pattern and see if I have some of that same yarn in my stash! I love those colors. The green sounds nice, too...but like you said, all purple and white will be so pretty.ReplyDelete
I am nearing the end of our CAL doily...how's yours coming along?
Oh, you can never have too many projects going, it's like potato chips, who can have just one?
I love Red Heart yarns and make all my afghans out of them for the very reason you stated.
I can't wait to see your progress.
Blessings always dearest friend.
As far as I'm concerned, there's no such thing as too many projects. (you should see the overflowing supply at my place!!!)ReplyDelete
I love your choice of colors, and my heart goes out to Boston now, too.
These colors are so pretty. I like Redheart too - you can get it anywhere and most likely 24/7. -)ReplyDelete
Love the colors Glor and I love the square, can't wait to see it when you are finished.ReplyDelete
So pretty! It reminded me of lilacs at my former neighbor's home! Her name was Grace and she had bushes from white to deep purple! I cannot wait to see more of it!ReplyDelete
Love your colors! Is Wool Eater the name of the pattern? It looks very pretty. Personally, I prefer Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn! because it is softer on my hands. Red Heart didn't bother my hands till just a couple of years ago, but now it makes them itch. Could just be me and my allergies.ReplyDelete
Hello, I love your crochet, it is beauty, I love this colors, I follow your blog, I have a blog about crochet with free patterns and free crochet diagrams, visit me , hugs from Brazil.ReplyDelete

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 9, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coalspur Mines Limited (ASX:CPL) (TSX:CPT) ("Coalspur" or "Company") announced today that it has reached an agreement with Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation ("Alexis") with regard to the development of the Vista project. Alexis, the sole remaining First Nation party granted intervener status by the Alberta Energy Regulator ("AER"), has now withdrawn as an intervener in relation to the Vista project, both in relation to the AER as well as to the Alberta Utilities Commission.
- Coalspur and the Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation have reached an agreement in relation to the development of the Vista project
- Alexis has withdrawn as intervener in relation to the regulatory approval of the Vista project, which paves the way for the Alberta Energy Regulator to render its decision regarding the approval of Vista
- In anticipation of such decision, Coalspur continues to work with the various regulatory agencies relating to its applications in order to secure final approvals and permits for Vista
The agreement formalizes the relationship between Coalspur and Alexis and creates mutually beneficial opportunities for business and provides for Alexis community infrastructure and programs. The agreement also ensures Alexis participation in the reclamation and ongoing environmental monitoring of the Vista operation.
"We are pleased to have reached this agreement with Alexis and look forward to working with the Alexis community in the future," said Gill Winckler, Coalspur President and CEO. "We have been engaged in discussions with Alexis for over two years and now have a way forward that not only advances Vista but allows Alexis to participate in, and benefit from its success.
"Coalspur has engaged with numerous aboriginal communities for over two years and agreements have been reached with five other communities through this consultation process. We have now addressed the concerns of all the parties that were granted intervener status by the AER on October 3, 2013 and look forward to securing regulatory approval and being in a position to finalize our funding arrangements for the construction of Vista."
In a statement, Chief Tony Alexis said, "In building our relationship with Coalspur, all along we have been mindful of our responsibility to our past, present and future generations. I believe we have honoured these commitments and moved forward with Coalspur in a way that will provide Alexis with the tools and resources to prosper as a sustainable community while maintaining our values and principles as passed down from the teachings of our past and present Elders as stewards of our traditional territory. We are happy with the result and look forward to working with Coalspur for many years to come."
Following the withdrawal of Alexis as intervener in relation to the Vista project, no interveners remain other than an individual who has been granted a conditional opportunity to make a 30 minute presentation to the AER. Coalspur has requested that the AER cancel the hearing scheduled to commence on January 13, 2014 in light of the fact that the Company has now reached agreement with all relevant parties, addressing the concerns previously expressed by them.
With all other aspects of the regulatory approval process, including environmental and technical aspects, now complete, the AER is expected to render its decision within the next 90 days or sooner. In anticipation of the AER's decision, Coalspur continues to work with the various regulatory agencies relating to its applications for final approvals and permits for the Vista project.

I thought it was a great movie. I have watched it many times. I like the locations and the characters. I am learning spanish so I switch back and forth from english and spanish subtitles to hear and see and practice the words and phrases on the DVD. the spanish is latin american and that is the spanish i want to learn. The movie is very fresh and fun to watch.Although she does go to brothels and becomes a prostitute it doesn`t get all sleazy and gross. It`s more about the different characters, her faith, the search for her daughter and ultimately finding her own "Angel of Justice." Fun movie.
In all a very good movie. It is however a bit Americanized. There are some great parts in it and the acting is refreshing.

Dear Animal Hater,
I have heard many names in my life such as "animal lover" or "animal activist" but until this past January 1st, I never knew there were such a thing as "animal haters". You see, my whole life, I have been surrounded by two-leggeds. They bring food, they talk to me and my friends, and they look after my health, although that always starts with a needle shot into my bum and ends with me sleeping off a hangover! Sometimes other two-leggeds come to see me too. They take pictures of me and my friends, and they also try to talk to us. We have an understanding with our two-leggeds, we have our space, and they have theirs, and there is a clear and defined boundary separating the two called a fence.
A few weeks ago, very early one winter morning, some two-leggeds came along and made a big hole in our fence. At first we were scared. Scared of the two-leggeds and then scared of the hole. Being the alpha male and female, it was of course Granite and myself who made the first move. We didn't realize that Luna and Lonestar would follow us, but follow us they did. After years of living in a safe and secure place, the world was suddenly open to us. A world we knew very little about, but were certainly excited to see. At first, we stayed where the ground was flat and hard. The walking was easier there than trudging through the heavy snow, but as we were walking, something started chasing us. It was like nothing I had ever seen; big, shiny, and fast. Just as we were trying to figure out a way to safety, Luna yelped and fell down, and the big shiny monster moved in beside her, its mouth opening, and stole her away. When I looked around to see where Granite and Lonestar were hiding, I realized that Granite was also lying down, and she appeared to be bleeding. I tried to help clean her up, but in the end, she really was not feeling well and chose to lie down until we could figure out what to do.
All I wanted was to be back in the safety of our enclosure, but now I couldn't leave Granite alone, the monster might come back. So Lonestar and I stood vigil over her for the next few days and nights. When hunger would not allow us to ignore it's pleas anymore, we had to go foraging for food. We had never had to do this before, and I wish we never had to again. It is not easy trying to feed yourself, and certainly none of us had any experience with hunting. Luckily, we all have pretty good noses, and they seemed to lead us to a place with plenty of food. I think you two-leggeds call it a "dump". While everything sure did smell good, none of it was filling. Certainly not like the yummy beavers that we were used to eating. In addition to our hunger, Granite was now getting weaker and weaker. We tried to lead her back to the safety of our enclosure, but there was no way to get back in. With the passage of a few more days, she didn't even have the strength to walk, and it was all she could do to take her place among the trees, and find a little privacy. When I heard the two-leggeds approaching, I got scared. Too scared to stay by her side, so Lonestar and I took off, and hoped for the best. When we last visited our family at the wolf center enclosure, we were told she had died. We found where they buried her and howled our grief to the sky. I would never see my Granite again. The mother of my pups, my life mate, my friend.
Lonestar and I have been on the run since then. We have been unable to get back into our enclosure, and to be quite honest, we are now more than a little afraid of the two-legged ones. We have been back a few times to visit our pack, but have also been roaming in wider and wider circles. There are have been times we have gone without eating for days, and other times that we have been chased away from our food by other wolves, big, shiny, fast monsters, or the two legged ones. Lonestar is recovering from a bite he got while in a fight with another wolf. Hopefully he won't feel the need to "lie down" and leave me on my own.
I don't know what will become of us. We would like to re-join our pack, they have been left without an alpha male or female, but I don't know if we will ever be able to get back into our enclosure. I wish I had never slipped through that hole in the fence. Did those two-leggeds mean for Granite and Luna to die? Did they kill them? Do they also fear the big shiny monster? Will I ever have the comfort of a full belly and a safe place to sleep? Will I ever have a mate again? Is this what you wanted when you cut that hole in the fence? Why couldn't you just leave us alone?

When I blogged about my OpenSolaris Home Server a while ago, little did I know that this would become my most popular entry in my old blog!
In fact, R.G. was so kind to call my setup "perilously close to being an AMD reference design". Thanks, R.G.! Read about his final setup here. And BTW, if you're into e-guitars, check out his GEOFEX page, a great resource for guitar effects.
So let's review our reference design and discuss some modifications to better suit your needs:
A Popular Design
In fact, quite a few people replicated this configuration, including Gregor, Jan and about half a dozen other people who emailed me about their experiences with this setup, plus a fair amount of discussion on the zfs-discuss mailing list.
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 240e. Dual-core, energy-efficient, supports ECC.
Motherboard: Asus M3A78-CM. AMD chipset, 6 SATA ports, integrated graphics.
RAM: Kingston 2GB 533MHZ DDR2 ECC. ZFS likes ECC.
Extra NIC: Intel PRO/1000 PT Desktop Adapter.
Case: Antec NSK1380 µATX. Small, silent, 4 drive bays.
Boot disk(s): Samsung SpinPoint M6 HM251JI, 250 GB, 2.5". The 2.5" form factor saves space.
Data disks: Samsung EcoGreen F2 1.5 TBand/or Western Digital Caviar Green 2TBSATA drives.
Boot disk mount: Scythe Slot Rafter. Converts two free PCI slots into 4 x 2.5" drive bays.
Experience So Far
This server has been happily working in my basement for more than half a year now, no crashes, rock-solid.
Power consumption in idle mode without disks (assuming they're spun down) is around 45W. Even at high load, the Watt-meter didn't seem to go beyond 80W. No signs of thermal issues, although I haven't found a good method of measuring temperature online (Unfortunately, OpenSolaris doesn't support older ACPI versions very well).
Possible Modifications
A few people came up with some modifications:
The motherboard supports a wide range of AMD CPUs. If you want something more powerful, then you can use a 3 or 4 core Phenom. If you're on a budget, a smaller Athlon will work well, too. OpenSolaris should support any AMD CPU, although you want to pick one of the 0x10 family (any recent one) for PowerNow! compatibility.
Unfortunately, the motherboard has been discontinued by Asus, although it still can be found in a variety of places. Some people reported success with Asus M4A series motherboards, so if I were to build another home server, I'd pick an M4A one with 6 SATA ports. Of course, other AMD motherboards based on AMD or NVIDIA chipsets should work well, too, but it's best to check the HCL or with someone who has already installed OpenSolaris successfully. Matthias has been trying out Intel Atom boards lately and he's fairly happy with them, but I'd still argue for an AMD one because of ECC memory support at low cost with good power-efficiency, which is quite difficult in Intel-land.
The only reason I bought the extra NIC was to avoid any possible issues with the on-board RealTek networking chip. But meanwhile, several people have reported that on-board networking runs fine, so the extra network card is really optional.
The case is a bit crowded and I had to saw off half of the Scythe Slot Rafter to make space for a 3rd disk. If you're less space constrained, you can pick a much bigger and more comfortable case.
You can use any disks you want, ZFS will be happy with any model. Just make sure you configure some kind of redundancy (i.e. mirroring or RAID-Z/Z2/Z3) and have replacement handy when your disks start breaking.
It's wise to separate your root pool from your data pool for several reasons. Since you don't need much space for the root pool, any pair of mirrored 2.5" notebook type disks are sufficient. If you want to max out on number of disks, use the board's IDE ports for boot which will leave you with 6 SATA ports left for your data pool.
It also seems to be a good idea to mix drives from different manufacturers. This minimizes the probability of multiple drives failing at the same time.
As you may know, I prefer mirroring over RAID-Z because of the higher flexibility and simplicity. My data fits into a single pair of mirrored drives and my hot-spare is really a third mirror half with a higher capacity (2TB vs. 1.5TB). When the smaller disks fail for good, the pool will be upgraded to the higher capacity quite naturally by buying a second 2TB drive and getting rid of the 1.5 TB ones.
Spreading OpenSolaris Home Server Designs
During an email discussion with R.G., we found that the biggest issue with adopting OpenSolaris is the lack of good, reliable reference designs for home server hardware. I hope this configuration continues to help solve that problem and I have a couple of ideas on how to do more in this space.
But here comes your part: If you've built your own OpenSolaris server, then blog about it and send me a link to your entry. I'd be glad to link to you.
Better yet: Let's build a network of OpenSolaris home servers!
The other big issue that surprised me was that OpenSolaris is still perceived as being hard to learn. Most of this is probably caused by pure habit (i.e. many people used to doing it the Linux way vs. fewer people familiar with the Solaris way, both equally complicated but one of them simply more widely spread).
Still, some things in OpenSolaris are more complicated than necessary, but that's being fixed quickly. Here are some tips to get you started.
Building an OpenSolaris home server isn't hard, it's just less well documented than for other operating systems. As OpenSolaris becomes more and more popular, this issue will be fixed soon. In fact, you can help, too by publishing your own OpenSolaris home server configuration and experience!
Your Turn
Have you build your own OpenSolaris home server? Blog about it. Send me your link. Or share your configuration and experience in the comments section below. Help others do the same!
The component links above are Amazon affiliate links. Don't worry, they won't cost you a dime and they won't make me rich either. With some luck, they can help pay for the cost of hosting this blog, but at the moment they're really an experiment to me.

Lost smooth transition effect on thumbnails from TaskBar
I upgraded my system (Dual Core 3.4GHZ Intel based server with 4GB RAM) from Vista SP2 to Seven SP1 (32 bits). At first login, when I hovered the mouse pointer over the taskbar icons to get the thumbnail preview, I got this nice smooth transition effect between icons.
But after a few days of use I lost the smooth transition effect; thumbnails now change in a fast, direct way.
I did a repair install to ensure system integrity; smooth effect was recovered after repair install.
But now, 2 days after repair install, smooth transition is gone again.
Already did a sfc /scannow and no integrity problems revealed.
Also tried a Microsoft Fix it for areo Glass, and other troubleshooting procedures; but no problem was detected.
Any ideas on how to recover the smooth effect, and what the problem might be?

Thanks for your welcome, A Guy!
Provided registry tweaks modify delay time (time it takes for thumbnail to appear) but none restores the smooth transition effect.
Not a big deal to have lost this effect, but as a programmer always wonder why?
Thanks anyway. Let see if we get more ideas on the road.

The effect loss is caused by software
After repair install made on April, 12th I backed up the registry. I did a registry restore to April 12 (used ERUNT) which recovered the smooth transition effect.
The effect loss is caused by software installed before this point. Don´t know yet what application causes the issue.
Issue solved for me with the registry backup.
A Guy is right it is a software problem coming from another application. Thanks to A Guy!

Run ERUNT Autobackup as a task in Windows 7
Good job
