Concrete Theatre
45920 Main Street,
1 person favorited this theater
Showing 11 comments
Trying to survive
Sounds cool! Interesting-looking theatre, at least from the back, too.
Didn't see any pictures of the projection booth, the new sound system, or the stage/screen.
Who did the sound system install, McRae Theatre Equipment?
For more information on the Concrete Theatre: www.facebook.com/concretetheatre, www.concrete-theatre.com, or We welcome your ideas, suggestions and feedback.
We are set to reopen the Concrete Theatre on Friday, February 12, 2010, with movies playing Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The facility has been refurbished (new carpet, paint, lighting, curtains, etc.) and a surround sound system has been installed. Looking forward to making magic happen on Main Street again, and hope the community supports us in this effort.
Its kind of funny the the Concrete Theatre could have burned down twice.
The Concrete Theatre was purchased by Fred West and Valerie Stafford in September 2009. New website: http://www.concrete-theatre.com
Here is some historical background:
The blackjack movie "21" was shown in May, so status should be open.
I had posted some history about the theater in the original listing of this theater, but it is gone. Is there anyway to get that back?
Listed in the Film Daily Yearbook; 1950 edition with a seating capacity given as 290.

As I was planning to make a nice delicious soup for one evenings, I suddenly pondered on the soup I had over in Guangzhou. It was so nice, clear yet tasty and it helps eliminate the heat in our body by means of a key ingredient, Bittergourd. Here are the ingredients for this yummy soup.
1) 400 – 500 grams of pork ribs (blanched to remove blood)
2) 5 dried longans
3) 1 honey date
4) 1 medium size bittergourd (Remove pith, seeds, and cut into smaller strips)
5) 10 pcs of dried scallops (soak in water)
6) 5 dried oysters (soak in water)
7) 30 gram of soya beans
8)Salt (add to taste)
Cooking Instructions:
1) Blanch the bittergourd in the hot boiling water for about 15 mins to remove its initial bitterness. Take it up and place it aside.
2)Boil a new pot of water (2 Litres)
3) Place all ingredients, including the blanched bittergourd into pot
4)Turn to high heat for next 30 mins. Leave it to simmer at low heat for next 1.5 hrs or so to allow the sweetness of the ingredients to diffuse into the soup.
5)Add salt to taste, based on individual preference.
The result would be a nice smelling, sweet tasting soup which would extremely beneficial to health. You could serve the ribs with a plate of soya sauce and cut chillies. Hope you enjoy the wonderful soup.

US Navy, Coast Guard Seize Semi-Submersible Boat, 7 Tons of Cocaine, Nab 4 Suspects
On the Home Front:
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 2008 -- A U.S. Coast Guard law enforcement detachment embarked aboard the USS McInerney, seized a stateless, self-propelled, semi-submersible vessel Saturday with seven tons of cocaine aboard about 350 miles west of Guatemala in the waters of the Eastern Pacific Ocean.
The 59-foot, steel and fiberglass, self-propelled, semi-submersible (SPSS) craft was detected by a U.S. Navy aircraft. The aircraft vectored the USS McInerney to a position near the SPSS whereupon two small boats were launched from the McInerney. Coast Guard law enforcement detachment 404, under the cover of darkness, boarded the SPSS from the McInerney's small boats, surprising the smugglers. When the smugglers realized the Coast Guard was on the deck of the SPSS, they reversed the engines at a high speed in an attempt to throw the boarding team into the sea. The smugglers also attempted to scuttle the SPSS but complied with orders from the boarding team to close the valves that were flooding the SPSS.
"This was the most dangerous operation of my career," said Lt. j.g. Todd Bagetis, officer in charge of Coast Guard law enforcement detachment 404.
Boardings of SPSS craft are particularly hazardous because when loaded there is very little freeboard and when law enforcement is detected by the smugglers they open scuttling valves to flood the craft and send it, along with the evidence of smuggling, to the bottom of the ocean. This practice makes prosecution of smugglers difficult because the narcotics cannot be recovered to be used as evidence of narco-trafficking.
SPSS craft are becoming more sophisticated and capable. The craft seized Saturday is capable of traveling from South America to San Diego, Calif., without stopping for fuel or other supplies. The vessel was also reported to be equipped with state-of-the-art navigation and communication equipment.
It is in the light of this growing threat that the U.S. House of Representatives passed HR 6295 July 29, 2008. This bill, currently awaiting action by the Senate, would outlaw the operation of stateless SPSS craft on international voyages regardless of the presence of contraband.

10 Weeks No Tests Update V
Here is how I've decided to work in Wallwisher into my daily lectures with Prezi instead of using daily quizzes or chapter tests. I use my Gatsby Prezis to lead the discussion while I have students open to a page of links to various Wall I created for specific questions.When I come to an important part of the presentation, I tell students to click on a certain question and respond to the question. Once everyone has responded, I call on students to read a response another student posted. Here are a couple of examples of what students put together.
The kids loved this. When I asked them what was good about taking notes this way, multiple kids from different classes said it was nice to "hear" from different people in the class instead of the same 4 or 5 students. Another student said it was nice to be able to see some other ideas when he was stuck and trying to figure out the best way to start. many said they liked feeling apart of the note giving process. They were creators instead of copiers. If that is not a ringing endorsement of what I was trying to do, I'm not sure what is.
I've decided to create Wallwishers for each class so they can post questions and answers to help one another as they start to work on their final assessments. One students apologized for not reading today, but said she got the gist of some of it because she spent some time online looking up information for hr final project. Ha!
I teach three sections of American Literature, so I will need to create a separate wall for each class and for each lesson. Maybe I should have all three classes work on the same wall. Tell me what you think about that.
Lastly, I've noticed that the students are more relaxed when they don't have the looming threat of a test over their head. It's nice to have students that are a bit more calm when it comes to learning. It makes the process a bit smoother for everyone involved.
Thanks for reading and I welcome any tips or suggestions as I head into the final weeks of this experiment.

Daphne's Greek Cafe
|George Katakalidis
|Carlsbad, California, USA
Daphne's Greek Cafe or, Daphne's California Greek is a fast-casual Greek restaurant operating in Arizona, California, Colorado, Oregon and Washington.
The restaurant name refers to Daphne of Greek mythology whom the god Apollo desired.
Daphne's was rated #11 in 2006 Top 100 Movers and Shakers in the Fast Casual magazine.
Named after the Greek symbol for excellence, Daphne's Greek Café is a trendsetter in fast casual. The 70-unit chain recently implemented an English-speaking course for its employees. Throw in the best chain gyros and you've got one heckuva restaurant.— Fast Casual Magazine, January 2007[1]
Daphne's was voted Best Greek in the June 2008 issue of San Diego Magazine[2]
Daphne's Greek Cafe was founded by George Katakalidis in 1991. The chain entered bankruptcy in January 2010. It currently has 60 locations throughout Arizona and California and was recently purchased out of bankruptcy by an investor group headed by William Trefethen. In 2011, Daphne's name changed to Daphne's California Greek with a new concept that has been characterized as: a "hybrid" of California-meets-Greek cuisine, with an emphasis on freshness.[3]

Pretty much all I've been doing this week is the liberated amish quilt along. I've been having so much fun with it - just whacking stuff together and seeing what looks good; without worrying about what I'm going to use it for (hah!) and whether I have time to do it at all!
I'm quite pleased with the end result, although I'm not spectacularly comfortable using letters on quilts. I don't know why - I love how they look, and I love making them - but there is something about words that make it "unquilty" to me. Isn't that silly? I will do more letters and words. Perhaps it's just the unfamiliarity that is problematic.
So here's my little pink pig quilt. I love the colour combination, which is surprising, because I would not have expected pink and turquoise to agree.
The rest of my time has been spent with dyeing ... the ones in their bags washed out terribly. A couple were so bad I'm going to have to overdye them. For some reason I cannot make a nice rich brown - all the yellow washes away and I'm left with a very muddy purple. So I'm overdyeing those with more yellow in the hope it will stick. OK - off to Spotlight for more white cloth!!! I LOVE my Wednesdays off.

LIBERTY, Mo. — After presiding over Park Hill South's second loss in a span of three games, Dan Parra wanted to see a response in the William Jewell Holiday Classic's Nelson Division third-place game.
The Panthers started fast and didn't let up in a 67-36 thrashing of Oak Park on Friday, Dec. 30 at William Jewell College. Ten different players were in the scoring column in the victory, a good sign for a team struggling to generate bench production in the early part of the season.
Park Hill South entered off of a 65-60 loss to Blue Springs the night before in the semifinals.
"After last night, I feel really good," Parra said of the blowout win. "I think that we put our best game of the year together today and since Oak Park is a very good team I think we showed up pretty good today."
Park Hill South bolted to a 37-18 lead with the starters doing much of the damage.
Jacob Kline, a senior guard and third-year starter, turned in a team-high 13 points with three of the Panthers' eight 3-pointers. Connor Lee, another senior, also finished in double figures with 10 while the three highest scorers were limited to 25 points total.
Desi Williams had nine points on three 3-pointers, while Lamel Robinson and Saadique Perkins added eight apiece.
The starters still accounted for 48 points, but CJ Lee put up nine off the bench, while sophomore Dawson Owen had four. Parra continues to look for the right combinations off the bench to provide some relief to the taxed starting five.
"I want to see not just production out of the bench, I want to see getting rebounds and coming in with some energy," Parra said. "Our starters do play a lot of minutes but I want to see more from our bench as far as energy goes."
Robinson and Williams — both sophomore guards — have been the main scorers so far this season.
Kline brings a wealth of postseason experience, while Perkins transferred from Sumner Academy (Kan.). Park Hill South started 5-0 before a loss to Liberty in the Citizens Bank Classic in early December. The Panthers have now lost three in a span of seven games with an 8-3 record.
"We are young, but a lot of these guys played varsity ball last year so we're young, but we're experienced," Parra said. "I think some of those we just come out and think we expect so many great things to just come to us but we've got to work every day to earn what we get."
Blue Springs 65, Park Hill South 60
The Wildcats rallied back late to pull out a semifinal win on Thursday, Dec. 29 in Liberty, Mo.
Park Hill South led 48-43 entering the fourth quarter but yielded 22 points in the final 8 minutes to lose the lead. The Panthers were solid on free throws (24-for-31) but made only 17 shots from the floor.
Blue Springs had seven 3-pointers to Park Hill South's 2.
Robinson and Perkins led Park Hill South with 19 apiece, while Williams added 14. CJ Lee scored six points for the Panthers' only bench points.
Park Hill South 81, Lincoln Prep 62
The Panthers survived despite some late hot shooting from the opposition in an opening round game Tuesday, Dec. 27 in Liberty, Mo.
Park Hill South led 66-38 entering the fourth quarter behind four double-digit scorers. Robinson led the way with 23, while Kline added 16, including a pair of 3-pointers. Williams and Connor Lee chipped in 10 apiece.
In the second and third quarters, Park Hill South did most of its damage, outscoring the Blue Tigers 48-25 to build the big double-digit lead.

Have you ever thought you could become a professional writer? Maybe you have come up with a great new therapy technique. Or you have found some things that really help your clients? Or you specialize in an area that people want to know more about? Whatever your topic is, you may be able to get published if you have something people want to hear more about.
Write What You Know
Professional writing can be a great way to add extra revenue to your practice. You may not think you are a writer but you would be surprised at what you are capable of. Therapists are knowledgeable about many topics that people like to read about. Whatever you're specialty, there is something to write about.
If you work with children, you can write parenting tips. If your specialty is depression, you can write about ways to improve self-esteem and tips for happiness. You just have to think about a topic you know the most about and start writing.
Start Blogging
Once you have written a few articles, you may want to publish them on a blog. Blogging can be a first step to becoming a professional writer. You can start a blog for free on WordPress.com or Blogger.com.
Blogging can be a great way to practice writing. Every skill gets better with practice and blogging is no different. Practicing will give you a chance to hone your skill. You can learn what works and doesn't work for you. You can try different styles of writing and see what people respond to. You will know if your writing is getting people's attention because you will start getting some comments. Conversing with people who leave you comments will help you learn more about what people want to read. It will also help you build connections in the blogging community which can go a long way in helping your blog grow.
Submit Your Articles to Websites
After you practice for a while on your own blog, it's time to submit your articles to websites. You may not get paid much in the beginning and you may even want to offer your articles for free. But the idea is to get your name out there. You want people to notice you and see that you have something to write about that people want to read.
Yahoo takes article submissions through the Yahoo Contributor Network. They pay a small amount of money but you get great exposure. eHow is another great site to submit articles to. You can submit your articles to eHow through Demand Studios. Another site to submit articles to is ezine articles. This site can get you traffic to your blog or website. There are literally hundreds of websites that take article submissions. They may not all pay but they will get you traffic to your site and establish you as an expert on a particular topic.
Another way to submit articles to websites is to research sites that have content that is similar to what you write. Once you have a list of sites, start contacting them about writing for their site. Websites always need quality content and lots of them are willing to pay for it. Look for a link for submitting articles on a site you would like to write for. If there isn't a link, try the "contact us" form. You may have to try many of these websites before you hear back but the one that replies may pay you to write content.
If you want to write articles for magazines or newspapers, research the magazine or newspaper and find out what kind of articles they generally publish. Only submit your articles to the publications who are a good fit with what you write.
You may have to do some research to find out who or where to submit your article. Try the publication's website. They often have a link for submitting articles. Many big publications have submission guidelines. Follow the guidelines closely. You don't want to get rejected just because you didn't submit it properly. They may want you to submit your idea and why you are the person to write it. Let them know your credentials and why you are an expert in that area. You need also need to know what they will do with your submitted article. Check to see if they pay for submissions or if they have rights to republish any material you submit.
If you want to write books, you need to find a literary agent. Today's publishers don't accept unsolicited manuscripts. The Writer's Market has a database of thousands of publishers and literary agents that you can access with a subscription. They also publish an annual book.
Send your idea to a literary agent by writing a query letter. A query letter is a formal proposal for a writing idea. You can find lots of templates online for how to write a query letter. The literary agent may have submission guidelines that you can follow too. If they have submission guidelines, make sure you follow them exactly. You don't want to be denied based on a technicality.
[amazon template=add to cart&chan=theraprivpra&asin=1599637324]
Get Noticed
I know it's a lot of work but the more you write and get published, the more opportunities that will open up for you. I began writing on a blog. I was looking for sites to submit articles and came across an addiction treatment referral website that was looking for experts to answer questions for their users. It didn't pay anything but you got a profile page with your contact information. I answered a few questions and was soon asked to write paid articles. You just never know what will lead to a paying writing job.

As we sat in the reclining chairs, the lights went out and we gazed upward into the model night sky on the ceiling. A high school teacher would describe the constellations. "This is Orion," he said, because there was a belt. Where?! I never saw a belt. "As you can see," he'd point out, "this is a scorpion." In my estimation, you need a lot of lines connected to stars and quite an imagination to come up with Scorpio and the master hunter. Why do I bring this up, you ask? 46 GEAR REVIEW // Well, my friend, if you've found yourself disappointed by the constellations, be disappointed no more— Celestial Effects has given us tangible zodiac devices that do not require deep astrological interpretation. The Sagittarius is one such device. Identified as an Overdrive Boost, it has, as you may suspect, Drive and Boost knobs, as well as a two-band EQ (Treble and Bass) and Volume. Two independent footswitches control the Drive and Boost functions, and the order of the effects can be set via a small latching pushbutton switch located on the bottom of the pedal.

House Tour: Steve's Beach Bungalow and Garden Retreat
When Steve bought his Venice bungalow six years ago, he knew that he wanted to preserve the integrity of the original architecture. Keeping the original hardwood floors, lighting fixtures and open floor plan, Steve's only big departure from the original design was to redo the large backyard space. Steve created a true garden oasis by personally landscape designing the area and creating defined outdoor rooms with sitting areas. This extended the length of Steve's space as the outdoor rooms feel cohesive with the rest of the house flow. Steve's breezy bungalow is the perfect home to entertain friends as well as relax with some quiet time while enjoying the sunny California weather.
AT Survey:
My style: I would describe it as a mash up of Asian with American and Danish Modern with a touch of California.
Inspiration: The aesthetics of clean modern lines while still making it comfortable and warm.
Favorite Element: Backyard.
Biggest Challenge: Working within a budget and inexperience. This was my first attempt at designing a complete home. The fence was a real challenge to get across my vision to the contractor while still letting him help me realize within the budget.
What Friends Say: My friends like to hang out at my house because they think it has a nice "vibe" – which I worked hard at developing.
Biggest Embarrassment: The closets I guess. I really need a walk-in.
Proudest DIY: Probably the design of the backyard which happened in 3 stages. I didn't actually do the construction, but I designed the layout and chose almost all the materials and plants.
Biggest Indulgence: The fence. It was a difficult design to pull off (the contractor said he would never build it again for someone else) and it is difficult to maintain because of it's proximity to the beach. The salt in the air is tough on wood and it requires refinishing every couple of years which is extremely expenisive and time consuming.
Best advice: Do a lot of research and know what you want before you involve other people and start construction. It is very expensive to change your mind or find out something is not going to work for the money, or that you can't use a type of material or plant you wanted to use.
Appliances: Not sure – they came with the house. They're not the ones I would choose but they are expensive to replace.
Hardware: I really only replace the doorknobs (which were cheap, round aluminum) with an inexpensive but more aesthetically pleasing handle-type.
Furniture: Much of the furniture is vintage. In the living room, the Dining set is vintage Danish Modern I found at the Long Beach Antique market. I recovered the chairs with re-issued Danish Modern fabric I think from Maharam that was actually more expensive to do than the cost of the whole dining set. The sectional is brand new that I had designed and made at Viesso in Santa Monica. I had them do custom legs to match the Danish Modern style of the other furniture in the room. The entertainment center I designed and had custom made to match a 50's postcard I found at Urban Outfitters. I gave him the dimensions, the picture and he did a fantastic job of mimicking the piece. I designed a fake speaker at the bottom which I covered with Fender Amplifier fabric I found at an amp repair shop. The pull hardware is actually 50's "dead stock" I found at Liz's Antique hardware, in Los Angeles. In the bedroom, the platform bed and the side tables I found at Room Service. In the Guest bedroom the bed is Ikea, and the other pieces are vintage. The outdoor couch and love seat is from Modernica, and the others are Brown/Jordan.
Accessories: The Wood Screen is Herman Miller/Eames. The clocks in all the rooms are George Nelson re-issues.
Lighting: In the living room, the ball light is vintage, the wall and low-voltage wire lights are Ikea. The flat lights on the wall in both bedrooms is Ikea.
Rugs and Carpets: The area rug in front of the couch is from Crate and Barrel.
Tiles and Stone: All the tile and stone was original to the house.
Window Treatments: The blinds I installed were quite pricey – probably $2000 for the whole house. The bedroom has opaque shades, the rest let the light in and still allow privacy
Beds: The bed was a platform floor model from Room Service. The mattress is Temperpedic to maintain the sleek style of the frame.
Artwork: The photography is Ronnie Darling who is a friend. Many of his photos were seen in the set design of "Six Feet Under".
Paint: I chose all the colors from Benjamin Moore. Each room has 3 to 4 colors. Usually two cream colored walls, with individual walls painted either a light blue, a light yellow, or a green. The doors I painted a darker green. I like the subtle color changes that it brings to each view of the house.
Flooring: The wood floors were there when I bought the house – I liked the way they chose a 45 degree angle to the walls. The other tile I am not wild about and would love ot change to cement.
(Thanks, Steve!)

International Photography Hall of Fame honors surprising recipient
November 27, 2017 by Sarah
The International Photography Hall of Fame in St. Louis recently presented a lifetime achievement award, the first time it has bestowed such an honor, according to an article in the Riverfront Times.
The recipient, though, was a surprise: the recognition went to singer Kenny Rogers, known for such hits as 'The Gambler' and 'Lucille'.
Though known mainly for his Grammy-winning vocal work, many people are not aware that Rogers is also a talented photographer. The executive director of the hall of fame, Patty Wente, calls his photos "stellar."
The IPHF was first established in 1977 in Santa Barbara, California. In 1983, it moved to Oklahoma City before its 2013 move to St. Louis to Grand Center, where it maintains space for its gallery and exhibitions. Among other things, the organization preserves historic cameras and photos, and honors people who have contributed significantly to the photographic arts.
Rogers' work caught the attention of the IPHF when the Professional Photographers of America recognized him as an honorary master of photography in 2014. His portraits of Jane Fonda, Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson, and others captured his subjects' personalities, and his other work led the IPHF to give him the award this year.
Organizations like this might benefit by distributing promotional products as a thank you to those who attended the awards ceremony, with the products reminding them of the occasion and the organization itself.

Revenue before traffic acquisition costs climbed 14% to $1.35 billion, but that was no surprise. Yahoo! had snapped up several small online advertising firms over the past year.
The numbers don't get too encouraging from there:
- Free cash flow would have fallen, if not for a one-time $350 million payment from AT&T
- Operating income also dropped.
- Adjusted earnings fell from $154 million to $150 million.
- Display advertising gains helped power a 19% top-line surge domestically, but Yahoo! suffered an 11% dip in international revenue. That's a problem, since operating margins are much higher internationally for Yahoo! than in its domestic efforts.
- Revenue from affiliated sites -- the equivalent of Google's
growing AdSense network of third-party publishers -- has fallen for several quarters now. (Nasdaq: GOOG)
The company's near-term guidance calls for more of the same. Second-quarter gross revenue is projected to climb by 2% to 14% over last year, but operating profits will likely fall sharply.
Memo to Steve Ballmer:
Are you sure you still want this on your hands, Microsoft
Yahoo! isn't a worthless dud. Its display advertising business is a gem, posting impressive 25% year-over-year growth after its recent shopping spree. Still, that's not as attractive as Google's paid-search stronghold, where the high click rates, deep sponsor inventory, and targeted positioning advantages shine.
Why else would Yahoo!'s report show just roughly 35% of the revenue and less than 10% of the profit of Google's blowout quarter last week, despite supposedly serving up more page views as the Web's most trafficked site?
In its favor, Yahoo! also has attractive investments in Yahoo! Japan, Gmarket
Unfortunately for Microsoft, both Alibaba and the Chinese government may get in the way of that handoff, turning a juicy asset into a taxable payday.
In sum, Yahoo! isn't any more attractive today than when it was trading in the high teens as a stand-alone company three months ago. There is certainly no reason for Microsoft to raise its bid, or even keep it on the table, after this weekend.
Memo to Jerry Yang:
You don't need to do this, Yahoo!. There's not enough desperation within the model to force an exit strategy. Yahoo! still has $2.8 billion in cash and marketable securities, it's consistently profitable, and its display advertising mastery is strengthening, despite the weakness in its affiliate network.
Along with the margin-propping boost that Yahoo! could score if it continues to outsource its paid-search business to Google, it may very well earn today's deal-inflated price -- and more -- in a few years.
Unfortunately, investors aren't always patient. They've been burned by Yahoo! before. They know that the moment Microsoft pulls its offer from the table -- as it promised it would by Saturday -- will be the point of no return. Microsoft will be too proud to not reduce its offer. Yahoo! will be too proud to accept it.
Either side is waiting for the other to flinch, but in reality, Microsoft would be setting a terrible precedent for future acquisitions if it upped an already generous offer after a yawn-worthy quarter. Its best bet at this point may be to scratch Yahoo! from its book, and pursue cheaper display-advertising players like ValueClick
This quarter was supposed to be huge. It was supposed to set the stage for Microsoft to raise its bid or cut its losses. In the end, it's too ho-hum to matter, which is telling; you'd think that Yahoo! would pull out all the stops to deliver a blowout quarter like Google did last week.
Let's admit that Microhoo is a mistake. Microsoft and Yahoo! have too many overlapping holes in their fruitless quest to vanquish Google. They definitely need better plans to shake off the ever-more-putrid stench of irrelevancy, and they won't find a solution by teaming up.

I'm going to the Tulsa gun show this weekend and plan on buying an AR. I want a 16" flat top. I have a tight budget. I thought about buying the AR-15.com rifle, but I really want a colt. What price can you build one for? Buy? My first one was a bushmaster lower with a J&T upper is shot sweet. Are there good deal a the show? thanks
I would buy the AR15.com Ltd. Ed. rifle. If not happy w/ the configuration then do this - [url]http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?id=12181[/url] Though I really think you'd be happy w/ it in it's current form once it arrived.
If I wanted to waste time arguing I'd get married.
Look at the AR15.com LEGP again. Everyone who has seen it has said that the quality is unmatched by anything else they've ever seen. Why would anyone want anything less than the best?

Droughts, floods to plague Nile
The Nile River's annual flood was the backbone of civilisation in Egypt. Surrounded by desert, this phenomenon ensured that a thin ribbon of green expanded each season to allow for a harvest.
Nutrient-rich silt and water for irrigation canals meant enough grain to feed an empire.
But poor planning and a changing climate are disrupting this critical annual event.
The opening of the Aswan Dam in 1970 stopped the annual flood. Nearly 900km from the point at which the Nile flows into the Mediterranean Sea, this artificial barrier brought water security to Egypt and allowed the country to release water in its dry season.
Although that meant more consistent water for irrigation, it took away the flood and silt that lowered the salinity of farmland and brought in fresh nutrients. Since then, farmers have had to use fertilisers to do what nature used to do.
But they have still had water.
Now, new research predicts that the uncertainty that comes with climate change will mean years of extreme rainfall and then shattering drought in the region.
The research, published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Climate Change, predicted a few years that are considered normal, when the Nile will have between 70 and 100 cubic kilometres of water flowing through it each year.
In the future, the total amount of water flowing in the Nile will increase by 10%, it said. But this will come in a few years of extreme flood, and then vanish in years of intense drought. That has already started to happen: an intense El Niño cycle in 2015 meant drought conditions across the Nile basin, and a La Niña in 2016 meant widespread flooding.
Given this, the researchers said: "It's not abstract. This is happening now." Their research on how climate change affects the flow of the Nile was done by a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), using computer simulations for climate change in North Africa and the Middle East.
The study noted that the number of people living in the countries along the Nile basin is projected to double by 2050, approaching a billion. That will inevitably put strain on already scarce water resources, with climate change further compounding the situation.
For Egypt, which is downriver of other countries that are also building dams, that variability will increase the strain on its water resources.
The Nile delta is home to some 40‑million people, half of Egypt's population. It is also home to two of the country's largest cities — Alexandria and Port Said.
At the same time, climate change is eating away at the delta. Predictions by the government — as part of submissions to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change — are that a third of the delta will be submerged by the 2030s.
The Mediterranean Sea is rising by more than a millimetre a year.
Egypt has already allocated $300‑million for the construction of concrete walls around Alexandria, to protect it from rising sea levels.
Even though there is little the country can do to stop rising sea levels eating away at its increasingly valuable land, the MIT research concluded that Egypt would have to store water in "huge reservoirs" to manage the years when nothing falls from the sky.

Katie Comes to Cali!Posted by Stacey at 8:25 PM
This past weekend my friend Katie came out to visit me while here on a conference for her work. We had an AMAZING time, as always; and it was SO good to see a familiar face!
The conference was in Long Beach, so Friday evening we ate at Gladstones and had a great time. We ran down to the Irvine Spectrum for some late night shopping. That place is beautiful at dusk! Ferris Wheels, tinkling lights along the sidewalks...it was great. Saturday we spent the evening in Newport Beach, along the boardwalk. We ate at a place beside the ferry to Balboa Island, so good!
Sunday we spent the day at Manhattan Beach in LA. There was a surfing and sand volleyball competition going on....SO perfect!! After enjoying the sun, we headed back to the house to chill and watch a movie. Monday, the day Katie left (so sad!), we ran down to Laguna Beach for some last minute beach time. It was a slow and relaxing morning, Mimosas and Bloody Mary's on the beach. Perfection!
I had a great time exploring the area around me, and it was so nice to have someone to do the adventuring with! I can't wait to meet more people and go explore some more!

It's amazing! I can't believe it! She's actually sticking it to this time.
She really is -- woo-hoo!
As you know I am helping Debi with her struggle to lose those extra pounds and I have to say she's doing pretty good. I guess she really did hit her bottom. Today she is on Day 16 of her journey and she's lost 3lbs. but the best part is, is that she's exercising.
She finally got off the couch and starting moving. (And not towards the refrigerator)
Like all of us who have had to lose weight 3lbs. doesn't seem like a lot of weight when you have a real lot to lose (like Debi), but honestly every bit helps.
Look at how gross fat is... Each hand on the right is holding 1 pound of fat. That's three 3lbs!! Wow, more than I thought it would be.
Just think if you only lost one (1) pound a week, every week for the next year, you would have lost 52 pounds. And because you took it off slowly and sensibly you probably will keep it off. Also, you have to remember you are not dieting... you are just changing how you eat. You're just making better food choices and you're deciding to get active.
It's one day at a time, one step at a time... you can do it!

The stage was set for heroics. Bases loaded, full count and Rockies MVP candidate Nolan Arenado facing New York Mets reliever Hansel Robles.
So what happened? Robels threw a very wild pitch to walk Arenado and force in Jonathan Lucroy with the winning run for a 5-4 Rockies' victory.
Arenado, who won Tuesday night's game over the Mets with a walk-off single, earned a walk-off walk.
The rally started with Robles plunking Lucroy, Colorado's new catcher. Pinch hitter Pat Valaika put down a perfect sacrifice bunt to advance Lucroy to second and then the Mets intentionally walked Charlie Blackmon to get to DJ LeMahieu. LeMahieu walked, loading the bases.
Lucroy, making his Rockies debut, made a huge play in the eighth, throwing out Jose Reyes on a would-be steal attempt. Reyes led off with a walk off Adam Ottavino and appeared to have swiped second, but replays showed that Lucroy's one-hop throw to second baseman LeMahieu nipped Reyes.
LeMahieu made a nice tag, making up for his goof in the seventh. With Arenado on deck, LeMahieu attempted to stretch his double into a triple and was thrown out easily at third. Naturally, Arenado stepped up to the plate and doubled, but it was all for naught.
Colorado scored runs in short bursts.
A leadoff, solo homer by Blackmon in the first, and Mark Reynolds in the sixth gave Colorado 3-2 and 4-3 leads, respectively. But the Mets kept fighting back, tying the game 4-4 in the seventh on Asadrubal Cabrera's RBI double off new Rockies reliever Pat Neshek.
Rockies right-hander German Marquez, who's been arguably their best starter over the last month, delivered a solid performance: three runs on six hits with five strikeouts and three walks over six innings.
In every start, pitchers — young pitchers, especially — face a moment of truth. Marquez faced his in the fifth inning with the game tied 2-2. He'd already given up a triple to New York's speedy rookie shortstop Amed Rosario and an RBI single to opposing starter Rafael Montero.
Now the bases were full with just one out, and slugger Yoenis Cepedes, who'd blasted a solo homer in his last at-bat, was up to bat. Marquez put him in an 0-2 count with two wicked curveballs and then struck Cepedes out with a 99.3 mph fastball.
Marquez's work wasn't finished. He got Jay Bruce to line out to left, ending the crisis and keeping the game in hand.
True, Marquez gave up a third run in the sixth on a leadoff walk to Curtis Granderson and an RBI single to Rene Rivera, but Marquez never imploded. Marquez finished with a decent line: three runs on six hits with five strikeouts and three walks over six innings.
The top of the Rockies' order, so formidable right now, put up a 2-0 lead in the third on a two-out double by Blackmon, a run-scoring single by LeMahieu, a single by Arenado and an RBI single by Gerardo Parra.

What exactly IS the "real" purpose of the general thread section of the forums?
I always thought that General sections meant any topics in General...
Was i wrong?
Are we to discuss only CR here?
Are we to discuss Anime?
I thought that was the Anime section
Movies? Movies/games/music section.
hmmm... so what exactly IS the purpose.. please... Enlighten me.

I have my eyes on this thread...
My thoughts on Anime @ www.animananime.com
The gay is not acceptable in certain countries in asia:
1.Mid-East... [Iran(the two boys get hanged!), Death sentence for Islamic countries...]
2. in brunei they not accept it as well..
i think most of islamic countries not accept homosexual... [i'm not blamming islamic countries...]
majority of asian countries i think would not accept homosexuality... they have these kind of funny thinking... lol...
ne sarang daehanminguk!!
it depends on the major religion of the asian country... most buddhist countries find homosexuality acceptable (thailand and uhh) because of the belief in reincarnation, if you're gay it's alright because you were already a woman in your previous life... it's in islamic countries that they're frowned upon...
anyway in my country we have a love hate relationship with homosexuality... I mean one of my best friends during highschool is actually very gay... Sure, all the boys in class did molest and ridicule him most of the time but we're also protective of him...
"a dirty mind is a source of endless amusement"
I wonder what's the next thread ezeokechick will make. Probably, "Does your parents allow you to date/marry someone outside your race?" kinda like that.
Oh well, cool/boring I guess.
Back to the topic....
I used to live in the Philippines till I was 14 years of age. Back then, it seemed gays were just one-dimensional. Some used to wear excessive make-ups and shorty-shorts like Daisy from Dukes of Hazard. But all of them used to swing their hips wildly and fling their fingers. That's what I noticed so far till the age of 14.
I had a lot of gay classmates during my elementary years. Some of them were smart, some were out-going, & some were just acted childish. I remembered this gay classmate of mine named Giovanni was about to accept his graduation certificate. As soon as he stepped on the stage's stairs, everyone stood up and cheered for him. He had the loudest applause than the mayor who came to see the graduation.
Giovanni's a kool kat. He's outgoing, nosy, easy-to-talk-to, & popular even if he was gay. He'll tell someone what's wrong about him/her straight on his/her faces and he would storm-off with his gayish-swinging-hips-catwalk trademark.
A kool kat.
When I came here in (305) in year 1999, I was a little suprise. Gayness are no longer one-dimensional. There are metrosexuals and guys that look manly straight but girly inside. I never met or seen a gay asian yet on (305).
☼☺♪♫►: away/vacation in Chicago
i also have a gay friend named giovanni during my elementary years... he was the youngest entrepreneur in our school... he's got a big attache case full of snacks and sometimes the occasional bootleg shandy and rain malt...
"a dirty mind is a source of endless amusement"
me too... i have friends who are lesbian and gay... the lesbian friend had turn normal... but i dont think the gay is turning normal... well... i'm not gay nor lesbian... so i just accept what they are and the path they choose...

Hmmms.. I think in China.. tehy are promoting gainess due to the excessive amount of chinese people in this world.. (Formula 17 is a great example). I dont see anything wrong with asian being gay.. =.= Same thing as a white guy being gay.. but some of the older asains find it wrong and cus at their kids and disown them.. Not usually.
Actually, right now China is having an issue with there not being enough women to go around.
Seems that one child per family thing , kill the female , keep the male thing is biting them in the ass.
So , It would make sense that homosexuality would rise.
Just wasting time.
Gays accepted in the asian community is a hell no. It "seems" that its strick in china and other parts of asia. Japan has let up on the gay dispute though. But none the less its not respected.

HAGERSTOWN -- The way coach Greg Kellick sees it, the South Hagerstown football team was taught a valuable lesson Friday night at School Stadium.
"We got punched in the face and we had to fight tonight," Kellick said after the Rebels' 27-0 loss to Urbana. "I hope what we learned is that it's much better to throw the first punch."
The Rebels got hit hardest by Urbana's ground attack, surrendering 315 yards -- the majority coming from the 1-2 punch of Zach Herman and Wes Garey.
Herman ran for 135 yards and a pair of touchdowns -- including a 93-yard scoring run on Urbana's first play from scrimmage in the second half.

If Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas, has his way, Attorney General Eric Holder will not receive a government paycheck. Neither will anyone else who has been found in contempt of Congress, the Daily Caller reported Wednesday.
Farenthold's bill, known as the "Contempt Act" would prohibit anyone found in contempt of Congress from receiving a taxpayer-funded check if passed into law. In 2012, Holder was found in contempt of Congress for refusing to hand over documents relating to the Fast and Furious gun-running scandal.
"In 2012, the House of Representatives voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for refusing to turn over documents related to the botched Fast and Furious gun-running sting operation — despite this fact, he is still receiving his paycheck courtesy of American taxpayers," Farenthold said.
Last week, Farenthold alluded to the measure during a contentious hearing with the attorney general: "If he continues to refuse to resign, my bill would at least prevent hardworking American taxpayers from paying his salary."

LGFW Review: Amanda Lew Kee
Recent Ryerson graduate Amanda Lew Kee debuted her second-ever collection and first LGFW collection to the delight of Canadian fashion lovers. One of the hottest young names in the industry, Amanda did not disappoint.
Amanda impressed by showing a dramatically different collection from her first. Her debut line was rock star tough; full of chains, studs, and leather. Black dominated. This time around, Amanda showed a romantic collection starring neutral tans and occasional pastel hues. Sheer dresses, a beaded miniskirt, and a gorgeous long flowing gown rounded out the show. She credited nature with being her inspiration.
Although Amanda's collection was earthy with natural inspirations, the looks still managed to emit a forward and futuristic vibe. They were also surprisingly wearable. The only remnant of an edgier Amanda was in the standout, oversized zipper detailing on several tops and dresses.
Striking pastel blue lipstick on the models and Amanda was a showstopper in itself. It added a futuristic tribal feel to the collection without overpowering the actual garments. The perfect cosmetic compliment.
Amanda's creativity and talent for working with and mixing various fabrics showed any remaining doubters she really is Canadian fashion's next big thing. Many much more experienced designers lack the versatility possessed by this young starlet. I must also tip my hat to the show's artistic quality and original choreography. I can't wait to see what Amanda's brilliant design genius comes up with next!
No comments here. Yup, looks pretty bare. Why not add a comment about something. Anything.

Quote 26
Only a person who has given everything away has nothing to lose…
Zett Why
What came first?
Do we realize what giving really is? The answer seems simple, but in fact it's complicated and even controversial. The mostly widespread view is false. It says that "giving" means losing, refusing, or sacrificing something. People whose characters are based on taking, see giving exactly in this way. The modern consumer is keen on giving, but only in advance for getting something back. Not getting any value here means being cheated. People with a consumer orientation feel loss when giving something, so many avoid it. Giving is a mandatory donation for some. They think that it's painful, but obligatory, because society requires it. Here a philosophical question arises: what came first – the chicken or the egg? According to consumer consciousness, it may seem that at first you should get, so you can give after it. Unfortunately, everything works a little bit differently in nature. When you want to get something, you must first give something.
Giving is an indication of your wealth

Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. John 16:20
Right now there doesn't appear to be much joyful about in the world. But remember Gods promise that your sorrow shall be turned into Joy. This world is temporary and will eventually fade away, but Gods kingdom is Eternal and Jesus will reign forever.
We must learn to endure the hardships of this world. Poverty, sickness, famine, and death are all daily struggles for all. But this broken world will be restored, Jesus has already overcome the world, just wait for God to turn your sorrow into Joy
A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. John 16:21
Jesus compares the end times to a woman in labor, she struggles and suffers with the pains. But eventually that promised child is born, and all sorrow is turned into Joy. This is the same for Gods Kingdom, there will be labor pains but eventually the promised Kingdom will be delivered.
And you now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man takes from you. John 16:22
Jesus makes another promise, that we will see him again. Jesus will return as our King of all Kings, and he will reign forever. All death, sorrow, and tears will be gone forever. Jesus also promises the Joy of The Lord nobody can take from you, because Jesus has defeated death and Satan in Jesus Name AMen

Hi, I am not conventionally good looking.. short and dark.. so definitely finding a guy for me via arranged marriage is very difficult, something my mother has repeatedly told me. I am going to turn 26 in two months so i know worrying about marriage is too soon, but i am worried that i'll end up alone.I am dating a guy right now, however he is not serious about his studies. I am a CA and he still hasn't become one, and i'm worried about my future with him.
Someone please help me. Maybe its my anxiety which makes me worry so much, but i am genuinely very worried about this.
Hi,Thank you for sharing your concern. Unfortunately, our society is largely based on the superficiality of things. We have been conditioned for generations about what good looks should look like. Hence your mother's concern of finding a suitable guy via arranged marriage option. I'm sure you are aware of the love your mother has for you, and this comment could be due to her own conditioning as she was growing up. However, looks and success of a marriage are unrelated. Finding a groom is one part of the story, being in a mutually comfortable and respectful relationship, with warm feelings for each other will strengthen your bond, thus making your journey as a couple a lifelong pleasant experience. If you are unsure of the guy you are dating, have an open talk with him. Discuss your worries/fears/apprehensions with him. See if you'll are on the same page, where your future is concerned. Do not compromise, just because of your fear of ending up alone. Take some time alone, write down your expectations from your future husband. Where do you see yourself with this present guy 5 years down the line. Be realistic in your expectations, but do not compromise just to envision a happy future. It is better to wait for the right person to come along, rather than settle with whatever you have, in the hope of making it right in the future. There is someone special for everyone. If the present guy is not the right one, when the time is right, the special guy will come along. Do not be too worried about it.Best wishes to you!Take care!!
You are not conventionally good looking..short and dark.....still he ACCEPTS you as you are..He is not serious about studies..and still not become CA--- u r wondering to ACCEPT him as he is.
Maybe he's not serious about his studies, and may be.. more serious about U..can we exchange the places. Dear. I need someone who is more serious about me than studies.. Plsssss.

Selena cumplió 21 años.
Porn Star Karen Summer was a hard-working yet under-appreciated starlet
who strutted her sexual stuff in nearly 100 features during the 1980's.
Karen Summer started her carnal career in 1982's 'Centerfold
Celebrities.' Early on, Karen Summer exhibited very little on-screen
charisma or even interest in what she was doing, but within a few short
months she had turned into a brazenly sexual woman who could take
control of any scene she was in and lead it down the road to sinfully
excessive ecstasy.
Karen Summer was a strawberry blonde who wore
her lank, curly hair halfway down her back. She had a thin body with a
tiny butt and medium-sized, droopy breasts. More than anything, Karen
Summer looked like a biker's old lady who decided to stop waiting around
for him to get back and went out to find some hot lovin' for herself.
Karen Summer had a slightly rough look to her, like she could beat up
any man who didn't fall under her seductive spell. Luckily for the ranks
of porn studs everywhere, she didn't have to worry about that.
Summer specialized in woman-next-door type roles, and played them to
the hilt. Her average looks and energetic sexing made for an appealing
combo and always made her performances totally convincing. Karen Summer
retired in late 1988 to concentrate on an exotic dance career, leaving
behind lots of steamy, sweaty performances for fans to remember her by.
Karen Summer performed in over 100 adult films from 1982 thru 1989. She was born Dana Alper on July 22, 1962. Karen was one of the hardest working, yet least appreciated, porn starlets of the 1980s. She had a very hot body with thin frame, small hard ass and average boobs; however, her face left a lot to be desired. In the beginning of her porn career, her energy on camera matched her average looks; however, over time she hit her stride and by the late 1980s Karen dominated most scenes. Likewise, she matured to a point where she had a sex appeal seldom matched by the supporting role sex babes of the time. Karen Summer reminded classic porn fans of a biker's chick who could fuck the cum out of any stud and then spank his ass for not satisfying her in bed. The strawberry blonde Karen retired from porn in late 1988 with her last film of the classic porn era showing in 1989.

Apple's iPhone 8 is not delayed and has entered trial production ahead of the scheduled September due date, it has been claimed.
That's according to Benjamin Geskin, a serial tech leaker with connections close to Apple's supply chain.
On Twitter, Geskin said sources at Apple's key manufacturing partner Foxconn told him that the iPhone 8, along with the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus, had entered production.
Source: "Zhengzhou Foxconn has started trial production of 3 new iPhones (7s,7s Plus, "8") About 200 units per day. iPhone 8 is not delayed"— Benjamin Geskin (@VenyaGeskin1) July 24, 2017
The source said Foxconn was making as many as 200 iPhone 8 units a day.
Geskin also said that the units had Touch ID embedded within the screen, flying in the face of recent rumours that Apple was planning to ditch its fingerprint scanner in favour of 3D facial recognition.
Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 8 in the next two months. Many insiders believe supply will be severely constrained, with some predicting the device won't be readily available until November.

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged lawmakers on Wednesday to work together to protect women in his first comments on the issue since the horrific gang-rape and murder of two young girls last month in Uttar Pradesh. (Watch)
Mr Modi warned lawmakers against "politicising rape", saying they were "playing with the dignity of women" in his first speech to Parliament since sweeping to power in last month's elections.
He singled out the rape and murder of the two girls in Uttar Pradesh, where a political row has erupted as anger mounts over the state government's handling of the attacks.
The girls, aged 14 and 15, were found hanging from a mango tree in their village with tests showing they had been raped multiple times. Their families claimed the police initially failed to take action because they were from a low caste.
"Stop analysing the psychology behind rape. The dignity of our mothers and ours sisters must be protected," the PM said today. "Does it suit us to make comments on such incidents, can we not be quiet? We are playing with the dignity of women," he said.
The appeal comes after a string of politicians including from his own party, the BJP, made controversial comments over the attacks on the two girls which further inflamed public anger.
A minister from Chhattisgarh, where the BJP is in power, said on the weekend that "these kinds of incidents happen accidentally".
Last week, a minister from Madhya Pradesh, also governed by the BJP, said rapes were "sometimes right, sometimes wrong."
"Respect for women, their security – it should be the priority for all 1.2 billion people," the PM said in parliament today.

They're running amuck again in Detroit, according to the latest news about officials padding they pockets through outrageous travel expenses.
Three of the city's pension board trustees have spent more than $321,000 on trips since 1999, a travel record that is coming under fire.
The three spent a total of 731 days on the road to destinations that included Ireland, Spain, and the United Kingdom, chief financial officer Sean Werdlow said.
Werdlow discovered the travel expenses while investigating the board's operations, The Detroit News reported recently.
The trips taken by the trustees of the $2.2 billion pension fund, which covers 24,000 Detroit workers and retirees, were to business seminars and to research potential investments. One trustee said they need to attend conferences and visit clients so they can make knowledgeable investment decisions.

Puppy in pumps. <--the worst animation you've seen in a while
This is something I whipped up in AfterEffects as a test to see if I could use the software to animate a character created in Photoshop.
Beyond the generally bad timing & movement in this little 3-second clip, I'm really enthused at how simple AfterEffects is to use and how seamlessly it works with both Photoshop & Illustrator. I'm excited about it and will definitely be working on a high-end piece in the near future!
