Open Thread: Talk About Food & Booze Right Here, Whenever You So Feel Like It
Here's your place to come talk about food & booze whenever you feel like it.
Hello everyone! Welcome to this very special Thanksgiving open thread. This is actually the first open thread I've ever done, and I'm pretty excited about it. Thanksgiving is perhaps my favorite holiday, because -- like myself -- it is very food-centric.
I have a pretty big family with many branches and off-shoots, and each off-shoot has its own unique way of "doing" the last Thursday of November. My mom is the oldest of seven children, and Thanksgiving is her family's big annual gathering, and it's really more of Christmas/Thanksgiving hybrid than a pure Thanksgiving. We do a "Dirty Turkey" (which sometimes get called "Yankee Swap" because Mississippians) gift exchange and my grandmother doles out knitted finery to her many progeny.
My dad's family is pretty low-key, and the only real requirements are that there must be a turkey and there must be some sort of Cool Whip dish. One year I thought it "might be fun to do a ham," and my father acted as if I had suggested we cook the dog. (I tried again this year with a duck. No dice.)
In addition to whatever family traditions I'm partaking in, I also have one personal tradition that must be observed, and that is the making of the Leftover Sandwich.
This sandwich isn't just limited to turkey and cranberry sauce, oh no, this sandwich has multiple casseroles and mashed potatoes as well. It used to weird my family out, but now they have come to expect it, and I think they look forward to it in a strange way.
I'm always curious to learn about other people's unique holiday traditions, and I'd love to hear yours! If you need some talking points, try the ones below:
If you're all Thanksgiving'd-out and just wanna talk about Jessica Jones or Master of None (or anything else), I respect that too.

Reaching gamers across rapidly changing platforms.
While gaming has surpassed most other entertainment forms in total revenue- profitably reaching those consumers has become difficult. The size of the game development budgets demand marketing to be highly precise — to reach huge new audiences that jump in and out of gaming experiences with the push of a button: at home, on the road, and even in meetings. Brands that focus on reaching gamers must be truly strategic to successfully unlock the potential of these always-on digital consumers.

Unlike some of the other guys here at PB I'm not hell-bent on destroying Lee Fisher.
He's not my favorite Democrat in the Senate race. But I also don't think he's a bad guy and, as the party favorite and assumed nominee, he's probably been wise to follow the standard playbook for a candidate in his position: shut up, raise a lot of money and wait for your underfunded opponent's campaign to shrivel and die.
Two months ago I was convinced his strategy was going to work. I sincerely believed that the Brunner campaign was doomed and Fisher was going to be on the ballot next November.
I'm starting to think I was very wrong.
While Fisher's crew has been sitting on the sidelines waiting for Brunner to drop out, J-Bru's team has really done a great job of changing the conversation, getting out in front of the issues and making Fisher look like a total slacker.
Brunner's team is quickly proving they are more agile, clever, responsive and smart. Today's fundraising emails from the two campaigns provide a great example.
At around 3:30 PM today I got an email from the Fisher campaign asking for a contribution to help improve their year-end financial reporting:
Our important end-of-year financial reporting deadline is quickly approaching, and I would very much appreciate your help now, so that I can continue the fight.
People are going to be looking at our financial report not just to gauge the strength of our campaign, but to gauge the amount of fight we have in us.
Please contribute $5 or more before our December 31st deadline and show that we don't let up when the fight gets tough!
It's important to note that this was the first email I have received from the Fisher campaign since signing up for their mailing list in late November. If I was expecting to actually learn something about the candidate from this one email I was surely mistaken. The content told me absolutely nothing about Lee except that he'd really like me to give him some money.
During the same time period (late Nov to present) I have received at least 8 emails from the Brunner camp on topics ranging from Afghanistan to abortion. And while I don't always agree with Jennifer on every issue, at least I know where she stands. And when she asks for money – as all candidates do – she does so only after she explains her positions and her reasons.
Up until today I had been supporting Jennifer's candidacy in public but privately believing Fisher would prevail.
But today I changed my mind after reading an email I received from Jennifer's campaign, an email that proves Brunner gets it and Fisher doesn't.
The title of the email was "Don't give money to my US Senate campaign this week" and the important part is this:
During the holiday season… I'd like to ask you to give your time and money to your favorite charity, instead of giving it to my campaign.
The email goes on to list a few of the charities Brunner supports, along with contact information so readers can donate.
Not that it's really necessary, but here's the recap:
* Lee Fisher sends out a year-end email asking for $5 so he can meet his fundraising goals.
* Jennifer Brunner sends out a holiday email asking her supporters to give donations to three wonderful non-profit organizations instead of her campaign.
Take a wild guess who is actually going to get my contribution?
Shalom Joseph,
Her Kung Fu is strong.
Years ago, when Lee was between government gigs, I sat behind him at the Caribou Coffee House at Richmond and Cedar and listened in on a more than hour long business conversation. (It constantly amazes me the facts about themselves people reveal in public places.)
At the end of the conversation I decided that I would never, ever, vote for him.
Last week I had a brief email back-and-forth with David Dettman, Brunner's campaign manager. We agreed to disagree, but the powerful points were first, Dave responded to my email quickly and second, he engaged in a civil conversation. I think Brunner chose well.
Pingback: Have Coffee Will Write » Blog Archive » MY COMMENTS…()
I thought this was a fantastic email as well. Gets attention with the "don't give to my campaign desperate for money" and seals the deal with why. Really well done.
Brunner sounds like a class act!

Jennifer's email must have scared Lee. Did you see the email he sent out today?
He doesn?t do anything until after she does.
Also his new email about donating to charity is a kind of strange since he asked me to donate to his campaign on Monday… and buy Fisher merchandise last week.
Yes. Your comment led to an intra-Plunderbund phone tree leading to Tim's post.
It's always funny to see a campaign switch gears so nakedly.

HAMDEN — Police Chief John P. Ambrogio is retiring in much the same manner in which he spent most of his 42 years on the force -- on his own terms.
The controversial police chief announced retirement plans through a press release issued by Mayor Barbara A. DeNicola's office.
Despite two suspensions, a lawsuit and criticism from within and outside the department, Ambrogio survived 34 years as police chief of this New Haven suburb.

According to the always accurate IMDb — I've asked you this before — you're linked to, like, fifteen different things. What's actually bubbling up for you in terms of projects that are nearing the greenlight or things that you're really thinking could go soon?
LIN: My next hope movie I hope is The Brotherhood. It's to be directed José Padilha, who directed Robocop. So we're out to cast on that. It's genre that I love — cops, gangsters. Based on true story, a mob/cop story in 1980s New York. So we hope to shoot that in the fall. Then Cary Fukunaga is writing and directing Stephen King's It for me, and I'm really excited for that. So I'm hoping that'll be his next movie after the indie he's shooting in Africa. So I love what he did with True Detective. I think it's a great sample for Stephen King's It. So I'm really excited about that.

text: Amanda Puskar Photography | What to Expect- Newborn Session Home Portfolio▼ Portfolio▼ Maternity Newborn Children Cake Smash Beach Children&Family Location Children&Family Pricing Meet the Photographer Contact What to Expect▼ What to Expect▼ Newborn Session Family Session Blog Newborn Session Information Preparing for your session: Date: The best time to schedule your newborn session is while you are pregnant. I like to photograph newborns within the first 12 days after birth. We will set a tentative session date based on your due date. Once you have had your bundle of joy, I ask that you place me on the call list (or email/text) from the hospital so that we can get your session date and time finalized. Expectations: During your pre-session consultation we will discuss what you are looking for from your session. Have you had time to view my newborn portfolio? Are you comfortable with the style in which I photograph newborns? (i.e. no clothing). Are there specific poses you are looking for? Will Dad be there? Will you want images of you and dad and baby together? Do you have props of your own that you would like to use? All of these questions and more can be found and answered on the Newborn Session Questionnaire. Location: I have a portrait studio located at 467 Grace Ave, Panama City, FL 32401. I do all my newborn sessions at this location. I will have on hand all necessary equipment (i.e. blankets, bowls, baskets, headbands, and/ or hats). I ask that you do not feed your baby before you arrive at the studio. He or she will have already started their sleep cycle while in the car seat and will be woken when transferred to the appropriate prop. There will be plenty of time for you to feed him or her at the studio when you arrive. Feel free to bring bottles along or I will gladly provide a space for you to nurse your baby. Soothing: It is always helpful to have a pacifier on hand. This will help me soothe your baby in between poses. If you have chosen not to use a pacifier, that is perfectly ok, but please be prepared to help me by having your finger ready for baby to suck on. I will also have a white noise machine and a space heater on to help baby feel more comfortable. The studio is always WARM for baby, so please dress yourself in layers incase you get too warm. Outfits: I photograph all my newborns naked or in diaper covers. Newborns do not fill out their clothes properly and they are so much cuter naked, so I ask that you bring your baby in a zipper sleeper and a loose fitting diaper. This makes it the easiest to get baby in and out of without much disturbance. We custom make our hats and headbands. We know what fits baby and what doesn't. For this reason, we ask that you limit personal items being brought in to two items only. During your session: Feeding: Please make sure you wait to feed baby at the studio. We have a nursing room for your privacy. Diaper and Clothing: Please make sure that your baby does not have an over the head outfit on. A zippered sleeper is preferred. Also, make sure the diaper is loose fitting so that it does not leave red marks on baby's skin. Posing: Since we photograph the babies naked, messes will be made. That is OK. We are prepared for these messes. And believe me, once you see your baby's images, you will know the messes are all worth it. I will begin photographing baby with family and siblings, then wrapped props and then bean bag. I have a variety of blankets and bows that we will use. If baby is not ready to be naked, I will wrap him or her up in a swaddle and begin that way. After one pose is achieved we will move on to the next one. Duration: Newborn Sessions usually last anywhere between 2-3 hours. Please plan for this accordingly. We want baby relaxed and happy. And sometimes that takes time to achieve. During the session, I will be handling baby and doing the posing. For the most part, parents can sit back and take this time to relax. Model Release: You will be asked to sign a model release before leaving the studio. This allows your images to be used on our website, Facebook, blog and any promotional advertising with out compensation. After you session: Culling, Editing and Viewing: I spend time going through your images looking for the very best images we captured. I narrow it down to between 20-25 images. Once I have selected the best images I begin editing each individual image. It takes about 2 weeks to have all your images fully edited. As soon as I have finished your session edits, I will post 1 image of my choosing on the Amanda Puskar Photography Facebook Fan Page. This will enable you to view the image and showcase it to your friends. At this time, I will also contact you so that I can email you your download link. CD: All my sessions include a download link of the images for printing up to 11x14. I will provide the usage print release so that you can print your images at the lab of your choice without any hassle. Printing: When you receive the download link, there are a few things you need to know. 1) all images on the link are sized for prints of 11x 14 or smaller. No large prints or canvases can be made from the images. 2) I have edited and processed your images and I truly believe they are perfect the way they are. If you forget to tell your lab to NOT "auto-correct" (usually it is just checking or unchecking a box when ordering), then they will add saturation and contrast to your images. These prints will NOT resemble the images I have provided to you on your link. 3) I suggest Mpix.com for your printing. They are a reasonable professional lab. Remember, in printing your own images, you get what you pay for. © Amanda Puskar Photography Powered by ZENFOLIO User Agreement Cancel Continue

Written by: Steven J. Fromm, J.D., LL.M. (Taxation)
Generally, children of divorced or separated parents are the dependents of the parent who has primary custody of the child during the year. However in certain cases a child may be treated as a dependent of the noncustodial parent. Here are some of the rules concerning cases where a noncustodial parent can claim a child as a dependent.
A child may be treated as a qualifying child or relative of the noncustodial parent if all of the following are met:
The custodial parent is the parent with whom the child resides for the greater number of nights during the calendar year.
Temporary absences count toward the parent the child would have resided with for the night (for example, nights on vacation, sleepovers, etc.)
If the child resides with each parent an equal number of nights during the year, then the parent with the highest adjusted gross income is the custodial parent.
Form 8332 or similar statement must be used by the custodial parent to make a written declaration to release a dependency exemption to the noncustodial parent. The noncustodial parent must attach the signed Form 8332 or similar statement to his or her return to claim the exemption for the child.
A divorce decree does not qualify for a written declaration after July 2, 2008 under Treasury Regulation 1.152-4(e). The exception here is that for divorce decrees executed on or before July 2, 2008, if the pages of this decree constitute a statement substantially similar to Form 8332, the noncustodial parent can continue to use such decree.
Bottom Line: A state court order or divorce decree will not apply to allocate the dependency exemption between divorced or separated parents. The rules discussed above are the sole means for determining which parent may claim the exemption.
The written declaration must state that the release must be unconditional. So the release can not be conditioned on the noncustodial parent meeting some obligation such a the payment of child support or alimony.
The release must specify the year or years for which it is effective and must name the noncustodial parent claiming the exemption. If the release specifies that it applies to all future years, then it is effective the first tax year after the year it was executed.
The custodial parent may revoke the release for future years by providing a written notice of the revocation to the noncustodial parent A copy of the revocation must be attached to the custodial parent's return for any year he or she claims the exemption as a result of the revocation.
If all of the above requirements are met, the noncustodial parent may only claim the child as a qualifying child for purposes of the dependency exemption and the Child Tax Credit.
The noncustodial parent cannot claim the child as a qualifying child for purposes of
The above is merely an overview of the tax rules in this area. Readers should consult with a tax attorney or tax accountant to get a definitive answer to their own particular situation.

Max Oliva, Associate Director, Social Impact Management
I have come across a very interesting and interactive Online Atlas of the Millennium Development Goals. These goals are both, being a challenge to poor countries to demonstrate good governance and a commitment to poverty reduction, as well as a challenge to wealthy countries to make good on their promise to support economic and social development.
Are you interested in seeing how we are doing in poverty and hunger eradication? Other interactive maps show our current progress in achieving universal primary education, both through school completion and education expenditure; the promotion of gender equity, both through equality in education and employment; reducing child mortality; improving maternal health; combating neglected diseases such as HIV/Aids and Tuberculosis; ensuring environmental sustainability; and developing a global partnership.
Having such a visual tool helps us both better assess our current state, looking to the trends that the World Bank predicts, thus having an influence on our focus, pushing both for commitment and results. As the World Bank very clearly states it, Millennium Development Goals have captured world attention in part because they can be measured.

text: Needing only to be nudged into the twenty-first century, this classic example of Georgian style architecture in Winnetka, Illinois demanded our deepest respect as we expanded its already-gorgeous, but not-quite-suited-to-modern-living, floor plan. A new rear entry, mudroom, and adjoining gathering room are convenient, comfortable, family-friendly additions; an all-new, all-white kitchen is a tour de force of architectural detailing. Upstairs, a master bedroom and bathroom renovation transformed spacious, but poorly-utilized, square footage into a beautifully tailored adult retreat.

Stand Up Comedy Show
Featuring: Isaac the Magician
North Chapel of Fountain Hills is excited to present Isaac the Magician for ONE-NIGHT-ONLY!!! — FREE EVENT
This night of laughs is to benefit our Mission Team, which is heading deep into the Andes Mountains to share the Good News of Jesus in unreached Aymara villages.
The Aymara are a people group whose roots trace back almost 5,000 years. It is estimated that there are 1.5 million Aymara-speaking people today living across the Peruvian-Bolivian region. Most local Bolivians do not trek into these mountain villages because of the difficulty in reaching them. As a result, many villagers in the Andes Mountains have never heard the Gospel or about the life of Jesus.
With your help, that will change!
FREE (Donations to help send our mission team are welcome)
Friday, July 21st @ 7pm
North Chapel @ 17210 E. Amhurst Dr., Fountain Hills, AZ 85268
While this comedy show is FREE, any funds raised from donations will go towards sending our mission team to Bolivia. With your help, the Aymara will soon hear the Gospel and will be given the opportunity to accept Jesus as their Savior! So, come and enjoy a night of laughter! If you are able to make a donation of any size, our team would be most blessed by your generosity!
North Chapel is a 501(c)3. All donations are tax-deductible.

If you enjoy seeing lawyers in action — and, really, who doesn't? — check out two current productions that bring to life a recent high-profile case and one of the 20th century's highest-profile attorneys.
Ferguson is now enjoying a limited engagement at Manhattan's 30th Street Theater. This is a triumph of summarization — and much more.
McAleer's one-hour, 28-minute, no-intermission script draws exclusively from verbal, physical, and recorded evidence presented to a St. Louis grand jury in 2014. The result is gripping: a cast of 13 highly talented New York actors emotionally and powerfully deliver the words that were uttered in that Missouri hearing room. Director Jerry Dixon draws especially strong work out of Renika Williams as eyewitness Ciara Jenkins and Cedric Benjamin as Brown's best friend, Dorian Johnson.
Though initially a tad sluggish, this production soon tightens its hold as confident eyewitnesses to the August 9, 2014, shooting buckle under cross-examination. Things that they swear they saw, they ultimately concede that they only heard. Multiple people see the same actions on Canfield Drive and come away with totally different observations. Everyone seems to agree: Michael Brown never had his palms in the air, despite the "Hands up, don't shoot!" narrative that the anti-police Left advanced for months.
The silver-tongued Thurgood Marshall must remain mute in a suburban Connecticut courtroom and merely whisper legal stage cues to his co-counsel in the case.
If you prefer lawyers in two dimensions, rather than three, you can do no better these days than to see Marshall, the superb film about the early career of Thurgood Marshall, when he served the NAACP, long before he joined the U.S. Supreme Court in 1967. It stars Chadwick Boseman in the title role of this true story. He mesmerizingly captures Marshall's intellect, bravado, and moral and physical courage. Once again, Boseman's craft and range shine. In recent years, he earned kudos for brilliantly portraying James Brown in Get on Up and Jackie Robinson in 42. Alas, and inexplicably, Boseman scored zero Oscar, Golden Globe, or Screen Actors Guild recognition for those breathtaking performances.
In Marshall, Boseman and a reluctantly recruited Jewish attorney named Samuel Friedman (Josh Gad) defend a black chauffeur (Sterling K. Brown) accused of raping his white-socialite employer (Kate Hudson). Marshall's dramatic locomotive is the fact that the silver-tongued Thurgood Marshall must remain mute in a suburban Connecticut courtroom and merely whisper legal stage cues to his co-counsel in the case, an insurance-defense lawyer who knows zippo about criminal law.
This beautifully acted, gorgeously shot, and highly compelling film features a toe-tapping 1940s jazz soundtrack, and even some highly elegant costumes. Keep a close eye on Marshall's tie bars, which ought to be on sale in theater lobbies, near the popcorn and Junior Mints.
This production's only flaw is its title. Marshall. That could be about a U.S. marshal. Or Marshall Mathers III (aka Academy Award winner Eminem). Or perhaps Peter Marshall, the host of the legendary and hilarious 1970s game show The Hollywood Squares. (As it happens, the 91-year-old TV personality was born Ralph Pierre LaCock.) But there is only one Thurgood. That should have been the film's title.
Those who christen films in Tinseltown clearly are fast asleep in their screening rooms. Will Farrell and Amy Poehler's summer comedy about parents who establish a home-based casino to pay their college-bound daughter's tuition should have been called The House Always Wins. Instead, Warner Bros. called it The House. ZZZZZZzzzzzz. No surprise, The House went pfffffft at the domestic box office, earning a mere $25 million. That title leapt off of theater marquees like a flake of old paint dislodged by a light breeze. Speaking of lawyers, Farrell and Poehler should sue Warner Bros. for marketing malpractice.

My first Daredevil comic book
With #Daredevil debuting on Netflix over the weekend, I've been on a nostalgia trip reading the Frank Miller DD comics I grew up with. (The digital comic book app, ComiXology, has been dangerous to my account and my iPad storage capability. It's just too easy to buy those old comics with just a click!)
I'm not absolutely certain, but pretty positive that this is the first Daredevil comic book I ever read, issue No. 167 — published in 1980. Daredevil fighting The Mauler, a guy in a battle suit of armor, isn't really the type of story the character is most known for, but it certainly pulled me in.
Miller's art, depicting Daredevil's acrobatic style of martial arts and ability to get some slick ricochets by throwing his billy club, was apparently all I needed. I think I was also intrigued by the idea of an old man stealing a Iron Man-type suit to get revenge on his employer. Even as a kid, I was anti-management!
If I recall correctly, this issue also had a bonus feature which showed how Matt Murdock's brownstone apartment was converted for his superhero identity, with hidden training rooms, storage for his gear and secret exits to get out and fight crime. In addition, there was a diagram showing how Daredevil's billy club (with grappling hook!) worked, going from a blind man's cane to hoodlum-beating weapon.
I'm also pretty sure my mother bought this for me, as she would often buy comic books from the drugstore for me on the way home from work. Maybe we should look into the fact she bought one with the hero being choked on its cover. Did she realize she was beginning a near-lifelong interest in Daredevil and Frank Miller with an impulse purchase?
(I remember buying the next issue, No. 168, which turned out to be extremely valuable, since it was the debut of Elektra, one of the most important characters in Daredevil mythology. But even if I'd kept that comic book and not lost it or traded it away, it wouldn't have been in any sort of shape to be worth something. I beat the hell out of my old comic books.)

looking for a room near U of T St. George Campus (Toronto)
Hello everybody!
I am a student at the University of Toronto and I am looking for a quiet and warm room near the University of Toronto (St. George Campus).
The room I have at moment is simply too cold which is not really comfortable for studying - simply for living there.
On Monday, I am going to talk with the Student Housing Office, too. However, I would be very glad about some help.
Best wishes
Marie (who does not want to freeze any more ...)

As editor-in-chief of San Antonio Weddings, Denise Untalan Marcos '08 combines a passion for the wedding industry with her talent for writing
When Denise Untalan Marcos '08 began planning her wedding in 2005, she found herself happily immersed in putting together all the little details.
"I would spend hours looking for things to make our wedding unique. I would even wake up in the middle of the night with ideas that I needed to write down," Marcos said.
That passion for planning, coupled with the journalism degree she earned from Mary Hardin-Baylor, married into the perfect career when Marcos was offered a job at San Antonio Weddings magazine just a year after her own wedding.
"I love my job because I get to use nearly every facet of my education in this field: from writing and editing, to graphic design and public relations."
Marcos' journey started at UMHB, where the mass communication/journalism major gained valuable writing experience as the sports editor for The Bells. As graduation approached, Marcos was busy trying to line up a job while also planning a wedding. Her future husband suggested that she try to work for a wedding magazine.
"It was genius. I could combine my passion for the industry with my talent for journalism," she said.
That was when Marcos came across the San Antonio Weddings website and sent an email asking about job opportunities. The publisher emailed her back and set up a phone interview, which eventually turned into a two-month, paid contract job that she started just after graduation.
"I gave the publisher [communication professor and The Bells adviser] Vicky Kendig's contact information for my reference. To this day, I believe it was the good things she said that landed me this job," Marcos said.
Marcos commuted to San Antonio five days a week while her new husband finished up his teaching year in Killeen.
"Those two months were a complete blur. The magazine was in the peak of production and the environment was new and stressful. It was a crazy learning experience."
Marcos has been with the magazine ever since. She and her husband, Oliver, now live in San Antonio with their three young children. In 2011, Marcos was named editor-in-chief. Her responsibilities include writing, editing, assisting with layout design, and coordinating photo shoots. Marcos said she owes her success to the education she received from UMHB, and the help she received from great mentors along the way.
"One person who has attributed greatly to my success, not only as a professional but also as a person, is Mrs. Kendig. She dedicated countless hours to teaching and encouraging me to be a better writer, and I was greatly blessed to have her by my side. When I walked the stage at graduation, I was confident that the education I received would take me far."

Outstanding Young Artist 2010, Thomas Pfefer, classical guitar
Playing an instrument was his mother's idea. Thomas guesses she thought that would be a good way to enrich his life and express himself. She let him choose between the violin and the guitar, two instruments that could be easily carried on planes during their summer trips to France, where his family is from. He picked the guitar that seemed to him very cool to play. As far as he remembers, Spanish music has always moved him. However, he was inspired to study classical guitar when he heard, at a recital, James Schultheis, one of John Arnold's students, play this beautiful piece composed by Francisco Tarrega, "Capricho Arabe". Since then, John Arnold has made him discover many other great composers, amazing pieces of music, and many famous guitarists. Thomas says Mr. Arnold encourages him to produce the best tone and phrasing that make a piece beautiful to hear. The more he studies classical guitar the more he likes it. Thomas would like to pursue a career in music.
Thomas also started learning to play the saxophone in school this year and is part of the school's band. He enjoys the band but the guitar is still his favorite instrument.

This product is temporarily unavailable
Technine Tn-14 Snowboard Bindings
Sizes: Medium ( 6-9 ), Large ( 9+ )
Riding Type: Park . All-Mountain
Heelcup: Pro 6061 T6 Aluminum
Ankle Strap: Comfort King III Dual Denisty EVA
Toe Strap: Classic Tech Toe
Footbed: 3 Deg Canted Tech Bed
Ratchet: Updated 3 Axis T9 alloy ratchet
Highback: TN-14, Single / Double Scrub and Low Back (4 highbacks included)
With 20 years of experience building bindings we knew it was time to release something that would yet again change the way bindings are made. For many years we have wanted to take all the benefits of the baseless binding and put them in a binding that could work with current stance options and offer the dampening support of the Tech Bed. We have developed a binding that is split down the middle allowing for the ultimate connection of rider and board so they can get the most from these new designs. For the first time since baseless bindings, riders will feel the true flex of the board allowing snowboarders full integration with the boards as the binding will now flex with the board allowing you to feel the board's true flex as the designer intended. The split design also paves the way for a lighter binding by using less materials and the lightweight wire heelcup design reduces material waste in production because the wire is cut to precision length then bent while old heel cups are stamped then cut, creating massive waste. The feature we are most proud of is the new split highback which has interchangeable parts giving the rider all highback options from low backs to traditional highbacks or single and double scrub hooks all offered complete in one box. If you are planning to ride powder pull out your traditional highbacks but if you want a day in the park go with the low backs or double scrubs. In celebration of our 20th year making bindings we wanted to pay homage to the pro riders that made this brand possible so we invited MFM, Ali Goulet, and Tarquin Robbins to work with us on the cosmetic design, creating a binding that is not only unique and something new but also timeless and rooted in the history of Technine.
Tuned performance:
Park Destroyer:
– 14% short fiberglass / nylon baseplate
– Flex and response tuned for park destruction with our softest feel. This is a classic Technine flex and response that is expected after 20 years

|Vegan single mum Tracy drinks a sperm smoothie every morning (Picture: reallifestoryagency.co.uk)
It's an unconventional start to the day, but this woman swears by gulping down a smoothie every morning, with the key ingredient being… a teaspoonful of sperm.
29-year-old Tracy Kiss has been drinking the interesting concoction for the past month, saying it's boosted both her mood and her immunity. The mum-of-two is currently single, so harvests her sperm from her best friend – or rather, he harvests it and delivers it to her up to three times a week.
What are friends for, eh?
Tracy – who's vegan – stores it in tubs in the fridge with the rest of her groceries.
|Tracy reckons a teaspoon of sperm a day is the key to boosting immunity (Picture: Reallifestoryagency.co.uk)
The mum-of-two from Buckinghamshire then whizzes the batch up into a smoothie, with complementary ingredients such as bananas, seeds and almond milk. 'I'd been feeling run down and had no energy, but now I'm full of beans and my mood has improved,' says Tracy.
The personal trainer and qualified nutritional adviser claims that sperm contains lots of vitamins and minerals – including B12, which vegans like herself lack in their diets.
Should we all be including sperm in our diets?
It should be noted that while Tracy raves about her sperm concoctions, medical professionals would argue otherwise.
|Tracy gets her daily sperm from her best friend (Picture: reallifestoryagency.co.uk)
Tracy says she understands it may seem off-putting – but the results are worth it. 'People are so weird about sperm when in actual fact a teaspoon is filled with amazing goodness,' she says.
The single mum is actually no stranger to incorporating sperm into her daily routine – she's been slathering it on her face since last year, when she discovered it made a brilliant facial, and she now credits it for improving her complexion.
Unsurprisingly, Tracy's friend and sperm supplier initially had qualms about being her own personal sperm machine.
'When I first approached him, he was concerned I'd use it to impregnate myself,' she admits. 'But once I'd convinced him it was for my beauty regime he agreed – after all, he has a regular supply at hand!'
As for the risks involved? 'I know he's healthy, doesn't smoke, drink or do drugs and I made him have an STI check,' she says. 'My other mates think I'm strange, but I don't give a toss.'
|The single mum is looking for a new provider of sperm, in the form of a boyfriend (Picture: reallifestoryagency.co.uk)
Luckily for Tracy's pal, she's keen to find a partner who will take over from him. After three years of being single, she is looking for love.
Her goals?
'I want a relationship where my partner asks if I want one shot or two shots of sperm in my smoothie each morning!'
Don't we all?

The 1970s
By: Morgan, Sara,
Sadie, Cory, and Matt Events Affirmative Action "Affirmative action" means positive steps taken to increase the representation of women and minorities in areas of employment, education, and business from which they have been historically excluded.

SALT -November 1969 negotiations, known as Strategic Arms Limitation Talks, began. They ended on January 1972.

Nicely written as always, keep it up!ReplyDelete
You had me wondering what was going on right to the end!ReplyDelete
Can I un-follow you so I can follow you again?ReplyDelete
This is good, but the editor in me wants to break out the red pen and crucify you with it. Namely in this whole all-one-paragraph structure...
Is this raw copy with no editing at all?
No editing, just posting as I write. If I spend too much time with destructive editing, I never get anything else done! None of my posts have been edited much aside from spellcheck. By all means, if you want to do some editing go for it!ReplyDelete
This is also a bit of a flash forward from the rest of the Dusk stuff, just a scene I really enjoyed writing.
Also, I broke it up a bit. Thanks for following along :)ReplyDelete
nice postReplyDelete
I never like to edit my stuff. I like to jsut write one time and that is it. I am very critical of my writing so i would re-write everything over and over again.ReplyDelete
Wonderful. Loved the excuses he made haha. i wish i could describe things like you do. it sounds nice and gives me a good image but not over the top!ReplyDelete
very interestingReplyDelete

Restore America – Continuum 1 – Protreptic Continuity – Prologue
The November 6, 2014 mid-term election presented the opportunity for American citizens to exercise their right to vote and send a firm message to federal, state and local officials demanding government reform and redefinition. However, two-thirds (100 million) of the registered voters did not show up at the polls. That two-thirds of the eligible registered voters, most probably filled with apathy, distrust of government, feelings of unresolvable futility, and apparently resigned to the idea that their singular vote was about as significant as adding another grain of sand to the Sahara. The no-shows sent a strong signal to our representatives that the majority of American voters feel disenfranchised and are not a significant threat to their political agenda or longevity.

THE U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) today voted to make all companies post their annual meeting materials on their websites.
Full details of the rules won't be known until the SEC posts the final rule on its website, but as it was explained today large companies will have to post their proxy materials on the web starting January 1, 2008 with smaller companies having to comply a year later.
Companies will have two main options under the final rule:
- They can mail a full package of information to shareholders as they do now, but with the added provision that they must also post the materials on their websites; or,
- Use the SEC's "notice-and-access" model where they send a notice to investors telling them how to access the proxy materials on the web or request printed materials to be mailed to them.
There is a third option where companies can send print materials to some and use the notice-and-access model for others. In either case, the website hosting the proxy materials cannot breach the anonymity of shareholders using the site, which is a direct shot at Nasdaq-owned Shareholder.com and its clients.
Usability of online materials, California conflict
There was no word today on what the formatting requirements will be for the online materials for those using the "full package" method, though I expect that companies using that "option" won't have to meet any hard usability requirements as they must if they use the "notice-and-access" model.
That makes sense because it would likely be an intolerable additional expense to force every company to provide both PDF and HTML versions even while they are still incurring the expense of mailing proxy materials to all of their shareholders.
Also no word today on whether the SEC will water down the usability requirements for companies saving money by taking advantage of the "notice-and-access" model. As I blogged last week, there's some talk about the SEC allowing companies using the "notice-and-access" model to post their proxy materials in PDF only, a move that I think would undermine disclosure effectiveness for large numbers of mainly retail shareholders.
Another wrinkle for which there doesn't seem to be answers yet is whether companies in California will be able to use the "notice-and-access" model. As Broc Romanek at TheCorporateCounsel.net blogged earlier this week, there might be a conflict with California state law. This came up at today's meeting, but no one had any firm answers.
There's a lot about the e-proxy process in the U.S. that makes your head spin, but I guess we will have to wait to see the final rule release. The video webcast archive of today's meeting is available. The proxy portion starts at 2:10:45. Here is the opening statement which explains the requirements quite well, if you read it twice.
The bottom line: proxy materials must be posted on your website and you can't track who is using them.
Other activities at today's meeting are covered extensively by others:
- SEC Proposes Easing Foreign-Company Accounting Rules (Bloomberg)
- US SEC adds mutual funds to new data format (Reuters)
On July 26, 2007, the SEC posted the final rules requiring online proxy materials (PDF 424 KB, 72 pages). I was wrong about companies using the full package option not having to meet the requirements for providing their materials in formats convenient for both on-screen viewing and printing. The commission requires all online proxy materials to meet this requirement, regardless of whether you're using the notice-and-access model or the full package delivery option.

Take a look at our featured custom designed spaces by Lauren Burns Interiors, photographed by Catherine Nguyen Photography. Enjoy shopping the look!
A well designed room strikes a perfect balance between color, texture, shape and the scale of items that will be incorporated into your space. In order to stand the test of time, we suggest selecting neutral or tone-on-tone prints for fabrics used on the largest upholstery pieces. This way, adding color in your less expensive design elements such as accent pillows and accessories allows you to change your palette in an inexpensive way down the road.

Inspirational Quotes about Photography:


text: Illustrator Tim Goodman designed special San Francisco-inspired prints for a local fashion boutique called Nooworks. For the launch of the clothing line, I partnered up with him to have local non-profit The Imagine Bus Project (a nonprofit that promotes art programs in underserved communities) have 50 of their local school children create paintings inspired by what they love most about SF. At the launch event for the clothing, we had all of the kids pieces for sale on the walls amongst the clothing. Event attendees were also encouraged to write on a large chalkboard painted wall what they liked most about San Francisco. 100% of proceeds from the launch event went to the Imagine Bus Project.

GM Names Chuck Stevens Financial Chief
Move Follows Auto Maker Naming Barra CEO, U.S. Treasury Selling Its Last GM Shares
General Motors Co. has named insider Chuck Stevens to its chief financial officer post, an appointment that comes roughly a month after the company tapped product chief Mary Barra as its next chief executive.
The shifts at the top of the Detroit auto maker's executive suite come after the Treasury Department sold its final shares in the company last month.

The Algemeiner reports: A leading US-based Jewish human rights group has called on the Qatari government to remove antisemitic titles from an international book fair currently taking place in the Gulf state's capital.
In a letter sent this week to Qatari Culture and Sports Minister Salah bin Ghanem bin Nasser al-Ali, Dr. Shimon Samuels — the Simon Wiesenthal Center's director for international relations — said, "Just as our organization would express outrage at anti-Islamic material, we request you to take measures to proclaim that Qatar rejects incitement to hatred and violence against Jews."
The contract signed by exhibitors at the 27th Doha International Book Fair, Samuels pointed out, forbids any publications that insult Islam. "We urge you to add Judaism, Christianity and other faiths to create a platform of solidarity among all believers," he wrote. "Continued manifestations of hatred at the [book fair] cannot serve Qatar's image or interests."
