June 26, 2010 by Brett Carlson
GUNTERSVILLE, Ala. - The pros said it time and time again - on the new Lake Guntersville you can't spot sit for an entire tournament. Those days are long gone - too much pressure, both from tournament fishermen and recreational anglers. But Brent Long didn't listen. He fished one little U-shaped ledge all four days of the 2010 FLW Tour finale and walked away with a first-place check of $125,000.
Of the 20 fish Long weighed this week, 17 came from this one particular ledge, located at the intersection of Siebold Creek and the main-river channel. Each of the first three days he whacked 25-pound-plus stringers from the area, but day four was much different.
"It's amazing; you never see a tournament like this won on such a small area," Long said. "But you could tell today that I had really pounded on them. I feel like I caught just about every fish down there. And the ones I didn't catch are now well educated."
During the first two days of the tournament, Long did not start on Siebold. Instead he fished a little ditch in the marina by the 431 Bridge. He'd assemble a quick limit worm fishing and then run over to his big-fish spot. But he was boat No. 2 on Friday and with the intense traffic, he didn't want to take any chances. After driving straight to Siebold, he never left - alternating between guarding and fishing. On Saturday, he took the same approach, but ended up resorting to his worm spot late in the afternoon.
"At 12:15 I had three average keepers and I decided I had to take a risk and leave. I went and fished another area for 20 minutes without a bite. But then I kept thinking back to how it easy it was to get a limit in the marina. So at around 1 p.m. I ran in there and got five quality bites. I lost two, but it felt so good to go in and catch a few. In that last hour or so, I went from hero to zero and then back from zero to hero."
Long's ledge arsenal was pretty standard fare. His two main baits were a Norman DD22 and a hand-tied Ernest Langley 3/4-ounce football head jig with a Zoom Fat Albert Twin-Tail grub. Unlike most competitors, Long burned the crankbait as fast as possible to generate reaction strikes from suspended fish. When the bass were schooling and chasing bait, he'd throw a Strike King Shadalicious swimbait. At his marina spot, he opted for a 10-inch Zoom Ole Monster in red plum.
"The top of the ledge was 13 feet deep and the bottom was about 24," Long explained. "The bottom had baseball-sized rock, but the sweet spot was clean. In the morning, they were busting the surface. But those usually weren't the biggest ones and eventually they settled back down. During the day, they kind of hung out and suspended on the sides. That's when I picked up the crankbait. When they weren't suspending I would slowly drag the jig."
For Long, it was a great ending to what was, until recently, a disappointing season. Coming into Guntersville the pro winner had not accumulated so much as a penny in FLW Tour earnings. Even worse, he had a disappointing Bassmaster Classic and a lackluster BFL All-American. But in a matter of four days, those bad memories have been erased by Guntersville giants.
"I came here with the sole intention of cashing a check. I wasn't fishing for points. I got exactly what I was after."
For a total weight of 95 pounds, 7 ounces, Long earned $100,000. He also earned $25,000 from the Ranger Cup program. To add to the moment, his wife and two daughters drove from North Carolina to be in attendance. And his parents were tuning in intently via FLW Live.
"I called my dad last Sunday and wished him a happy Father's Day and he said, `Thank you, but are you catching any fish?' And I said, `Yeah.' And he said, `Well, that's what I want for Father's Day.' I can only imagine what him and my mom are doing right now. She's probably laying on the floor fainted right now."
Rose retains second
On the strength of a 7-pound kicker, Mark Rose brought a 19-pound, 9-ounce limit to the scale Saturday to push his total weight to 87 pounds, 4 ounces. Over the past few years, Rose has become an excellent TVA ledge fisherman. He did his homework for Guntersville by spending several days of prepractice scouring ledges with his ridiculously large Lowrance units. That extra effort resulted in a stable of 15 different areas, located from the mid-lake region down to the dam, three of which Rose described as big-fish spots.
"When we used to fish deep, we'd look for stumps and shells on our graphs. Now the technology is so good I look for schools of fish instead of just structure."
Rose too used a variety of baits but his best was the Strike King 6XD (sexy herring color). He'd take a rattling 6XD and make precise casts to the deepest sides of the ledge corner. He'd then follow up with the same 6XD only in the Silent Stalker model. The baits were great for quality, but not for quantity.
"My partners caught more than me all week, but I knew if I stuck with the crankbait I'd get a few bigger bites each day."
And that theory proved accurate. Unfortunately, he lost his two big bites on day three, which could have been the difference in contending for the win.
His second-place finish earned him $36,077.
"I just try to work as hard as I can to be a student of the game."
Fritts rises to third
After catching a 28-pound stringer on day three, Lexington, N.C., pro David Fritts came back to reality Saturday with a 21-pound, 3-ounce catch. He finished the tournament with a total weight of 87 pounds, 2 ounces. His final-day limit came on a Rapala DT20 in Pearl Gray Shiner.
"That bait is just phenomenal," Fritts said. "We worked on it for a long time and now it just catches huge fish. DT stands for David T. Fritts as well as Dives-To."
Fritts' day-three stringer was caught Carolina rigging a Zoom Brush Hog in water 30 to 35 feet deep. The defending Lake Guntersville champion used a green pumpkin Hog, but dipped the tails in chartreuse so it mimicked a bluegill.
"I have never had a piece of plastic get bit so hard in all my life.'
Fritts fished from the lower end of the lake to above Waterfront (Tackle). For third place, he earned $27,010.
Walker fourth
Rising one place to fourth was Sevierville, Tenn., pro David Walker, perhaps the most consistent angler of the week. After sacking limits of 20-4, 21-4 and 21-12, Walker managed another five bass Saturday that weighed 20 pounds, 12 ounces to finish with 84 even. Walker employed a two-pronged approach on Guntersville. In addition to fishing ledges, he also flipped the outside grass line in water 5 to 8 feet deep.
"Of the 20 I weighed, 13 came from offshore stuff and seven came from the grass," Walker said. "I didn't have that many ledges so I just hopped back and forth (between shallow and deep)."
Both his ledges and grass were located in the Alred Islands area. He started every morning out deep, then would come up to the skinny water around 9 a.m. With enough light, he could see through the little pockets of grass. In the afternoons, he'd switch back to the ledges.
"When I flipped, I used a 1-ounce jig with either a Chigger Craw or a Paca Chunk on 65-pound braid. I wanted a trailer with an erratic motion because 90 percent of bites came on the fall.
"That grass grew a lot from two weeks ago during prepractice. In a few areas, it's really starting to top out."
When ledge fishing, he used a big 12-inch worm and a crankbait. Today the crank accounted for a few key fish including two on back-to-back casts. His best spot was covered up early with boats so he adjusted and ended up working the 431 Bridge area.
Combs falls to fifth
South Texas expert Keith Combs brought his lightest stringer to the scale on day four. His five best weighed 15 pounds, 6 ounces - pushing his total weight to 82 pounds, 2 ounces. For fifth place, he earned $16,130.
Combs fished a handful of spots near the mouth of Spring Creek. On his better ones, he positioned the boat in approximately 26 feet of water and threw up to about 12. His key baits were a Strike King 6XD Silent Stalker (chartreuse blueback), a 3/4-ounce Oldham's jig and a new bait from Power Tackle called a Lateral Perch.
Saturday, the 6XD crankbait accounted for four keepers. He burned it extremely fast like Long and Rose.
"The Silent Stalker gets down there quick and just eats the bottom up. If you were really grinding it hard and getting that deflection, you'd get a big bite."
The final FLW Tour event is the Forrest Wood Cup, slated for Lake Lanier in Duluth, Ga., Aug.5-8.

What do you think of the idea of a couple of friends going into business together? It's a good question and unfortunately a pretty tough subject. Some good reasons to choose partnership include shared dreams, financial agreements, shared workload, advantages of support, etc.
But think carefully! These reasons need to be discussed fully before you actually finalize any agreement. Many business partnerships begin with a promise and progress just fine. However, this is the exception and not the rule. Any agreement, expectations, and "what if" scenarios need to be in writing. By having a written agreement and having all partners agree to key issues you have a specific and concrete document to refer to if (and inevitably when) there are any conflicts or disagreements in the future.
Oregon does not require a partnership agreement but it is an essential tool for success. The terms of agreement for a general partnership do not have to be formal but have it signed by all partners and notarized. It is up to you (and your partner) to decide what shape the agreement will take. An attorney can help you focus on issues and suggest possible solutions but you and your partner must make the basic choices – not the attorney.
The following checklist should help:
• What name will be used?
• What happens to the name if the partnership is dissolved?
• How much capital will each partner contribute and what percentage of ownership will each person have?
• What contribution of time, service, and property will each partner make?
• What are the functions and responsibilities of each partner?
• When will owners' draws be taken, how much and when?
• Are bonuses to be granted? By whom and when?
• How are profit and losses to be shared among partners?
• What will the duration of the partnership be? What guidelines are provided as to how the partnership will be dissolved?
• If a partnership is terminated, how will the business be valued and how will the sale or transfer to a new partner take place?
• Are there any restrictions on the activities of the partners outside the partnership?
As with most legal agreements, it is probably best to consult and attorney and a CPA. Keep in mind that you can change the agreement at any time and you don't have to start from scratch, but if there are changes, sign and notarize again.
You can find template forms online that you can use as a starting point but you must personalize it. Not to end on a negative point but think of all the things that can go wrong and plan for them up front.

Soon I discovered that this rock thing was true
Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long
Oh yes, time for a blast from my favourite purveyors of refined good taste and decorum. Ministry Jesus Built My Hotrod is just about as good as loud music gets and one of the best 12″s I have ever bought, probably one of the best 12″s anyone has ever bought.
Just in case anyone was worried about not having quite enough hyperactive gonzo freako sleazoids in the studio during the recording they roped in Butthole Surfers mainman Gibby Haynes, got him drunk and let him go. The result just proves that gibberish is very close to genius. You don't need in-depth analysis here, just blast the thing and luxuriate in the manic craziness and dig the samples from Blue Velvet and Wise Blood ('no man with a good car needs to be justified').
B-side is the wonderfully titled 'Jesus Built My Hotrod (Short, pusillanimous, so-they-can-fit-more-commercials-on-the-radio Mix)', which loses some of the atmosphere and also the slightly boring bit at the end of the main 8-minute 'Redline/Whiteline Version'. the other track is a good one too, 'TV Song' (later revamped as 'TV II' on Psalm 69*) which is more of a straight-ahead rock version of the tune and the most, umm, un-industrial I've heard from Ministry.
But enough me. Just blast it! Blast it! It'll clean out the space behind your eyes.
327 Down.
*God I love that LP!

We report the observation of enhanced optical second-harmonic generation in transmission that is due to excitation of the fundamental long-range surface-plasmon mode on both surfaces of a thin silver film bounded by a nonlinear X-cut quartz crystal and an index-matched liquid. The coherent harmonic generation that is observed leaving the polished side face of the nonlinear crystal is 3 orders of magnitude larger than that generated from a Z-cut quartz crystal in a Maker experiment.

Year: 2003
Directed By: Tim Burton
Written By: Daniel Wallace
This is an interesting movie, to me specifically because I am always trying to convince myself that I like it, I don't do that very often. I don't know if it's Tim Burton, the cameos by Steve Buscemi or Danny Devito, or the stories but for some reason I have always wanted to like it, but the truth is I just don't. I don't care for Billy Crudup or the insolent son that he portrays, and I have never cared for Albert Finney. Had two different actors been cast in those roles then maybe I would feel differently about the movie.
I do like the Steve Buscemi role, I have always been a really big fan. The guy they called "kinda funny lookin yah" in Fargo has made quite a career for himself. Matthew McGrory plays Karl the Giant, you may remember McGrory from another film though. He was the kid on the porch with a banjo in Deliverance, yeah the one who played dueling banjos with Ronny Cox. Danny DeVito makes a small but notable appearance in the film. Ewan McGregor was not bad but I am not a fan. Also worth mentioning is Helena Bonham Carter, she is so fantastic in everything she does.
I won't tell you this movie isn't worth your time because I know many people who liked it including Amber. I think this movie has its moments but overall I think it is a film that should have been much better.
Unlike Ryan, I really like this movie. I feel like we all know this guy that has a story for every occasion. I feel like the man in this movie has bigger than life stories and he can always find a way to turn the tables and start telling a story about himself. I think the stories are all really interesting and also, they usually have some moral. I feel like you can tell what the base of the story is and then the bigger details that he adds in to cushion it.
One of my favorite parts in the whole film was Steve Buscemi's role. I found it hilarious to see him so happy and upbeat. I really like this movie and it has a lot of interesting twists and turns. It is a beautifully made in true Tim Burton fashion. It is not a film for everyone, but I recommend it.
NEXT MOVIE: The Big Lebowski (1998)

No, the fare rules are set by the train line, and we must abide by their rules, I have no way to cancel non-cancelable fares, I am sorry. Trenitalia also does not give grace periods, once a sale fare is booked, it is locked in. Seating is assigned by the train line, we cannot change seating. You would need to either ask at the customer service desk, or ask the conductor on board the train if there are any other available seats you could move to.

I get asked so many times from friends -and complete strangers- what our favorite restaurants are in DC. To be honest it's hard to name off just a couple because the food scene in DC is amazing. Daniel and I put together out top 5 favorites. We chose these for many reasons: they put so much time into sourcing the food responsibly, the customer service you receive is amazing every single time, and of course the food itself- the flavors and presentation. Enjoy a few of our favorites!
- Roses Luxury -Our favorite restaurant in the city by far! The charm and service make you feel like you've come "home." They have a chef bar that is really fun to sit at so you can watch them cook while you wait. The other tables are a combination of old wooden farm tables and bistro feel. There's just not another place like it! The Lychee is our top choice.
- Primrose -A lovely French inspired restaurant right in our neighborhood. The owner is incredibly talented and also just a good man. Their double-patty burger with sweet onions is what I order every time.
- Brothers and Sisters -Located in the Line Hotel, it is a very mature and beautiful space. They renovated an old church and the chandelier is made from the brass pipes that was in the church organ. I love how they weave history with modern design.
- Maketto -This is such a fun urban space! They combine retail, coffee and a restaurant. You will need to make reservations or be prepared for a long wait if you are coming for dinner. But it's worth it! The fried chicken is our favorite. Another option is go for lunch. No wait and their chicken lo mien is only on their lunch menu.
- All Purpose -Their pizza is some of the best in the city but you need to try their charcuterie plate. Amazing!

I know embarrasingly little about the way that yarn is sorted and processed on a commercial level but it's my understanding that it's basically graded by the wool board and then the yarn is mixed together within it's grades. So you wouldn't, unless that was your USP, buy yarn from a specific farm or flock or even area but wool within one category. Which means that the fibre is much more standard than my Australia/Cotswolds example above - slightly variations such as from a wet summer or a hard winter in a specific area - are kind of ironed out. But of course there are going to be variations. Same with cotton, bamboo, alpaca - anything natural. I'm trying to think about what might cause variation within an acrylic fibre but I can't. I'm no expert.
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, even if the dying process is automated there area always going to be variations in the fibre. Which is a long winded way of saying that dye lots matter.
Sometimes different dye lots look and work the same. Sometimes they don't. Mostly you can see that in the ball but sometimes you can't. My advice, if you have an errant ball, is always to try and use it for edging or something separate. For a baby's cardi you'll probably get the fronts or sleeves out of one ball. The seams in the garment, between the bits knitting in different dye lots, make any differences look like shadows. It really works. The other trick, if you have about half and half different dye lots, is to work two rows of one dye lot and two rows of the other alternating for the whole thing. The two rows mean that you don't have to break off the yarn each time so it's really no extra sewing in ends and if there is a difference in dye lot, the stripes carry on throughout the thing so they look like a design feature. Ahhh! And finally, if you have just the one ball and you're not sure it's that different, then wait until you have about half a ball of the last stuff left and then two and two stripe as before with the new ball until the old one has gone and then you can carry on with the new one. Yes?
They're my tricks anyway and they work. And lots of you have tried them and they work for you.
All of this depends on you actually checking dye lots (the general you... it's usually me that ends up checking them for people). This is something that I did do on the project in question and then I carried on using the one ball in the markedly different dye lot anyway. Because I'm an idiot and I don't care about making two shawls exactly the same in less than a week. Why would I!?!?
Remember I talked about how a customer had given me my next project in this blog over here? Well, it was a commission really. I'm making one of the lovely Sues a shawl for a wedding that she's going to in a couple of weeks. With my holiday looming, the Love Your Local Yarn Shop Day coming up and a to-do list that I've made myself as long as both arms and Boyf's too I knew I wouldn't be able to knit her one so I offered to do a Fantasm like the one I made in Verity's Yarn:
It's nice isn't it!? And I got that one done in less than 24 hours. But probably only because I LOVED the yarn and couldn't wait to see it worked up. But I knew, even if that kind of mental obsession wasn't there, I could get one worked up in a week with time to spare to block. We decided on the beautiful Cygnet Truly Wool Rich 4ply in the Dove Grey and she wanted it just a little bigger than the one in the window - a proper shawl. So I started on Thursday evening with a 4mm hook. And it was good. I took no photos of the process because it was one of those ridiculously quick I don't want to stop I just want to make kind of projects. And then on Friday, as I was travelling home, I started a new ball. Did a few stitches. Stopped. Carried on. Stopped. And finally, accepted the inevitable. The bloody dye lots were different. I'd done so much on the first ball that I couldn't rip out but I also couldn't give her this as a commission. So I carried on. Thinking that I could over-dye in a mixture of blues and greens because the flowery bits kind of look like a peacock tail don't they? I thought I might pass it on to Verity to dye but then I thought about how much fun I'd had when I dyed the yarn for this shawl:
It's the first version of Elise Shawl that I did and it started my love affair with quick, simple and effective crocheted shawls.
So I decided to give it a go myself. I think I finished the shawl that night and started the next one the day after. That still looks like this:
It needs to be done for Saturday but I'm just about half a row away from finishing the final repeat of the 'pattern pattern' and then I'm just going to finish the rest of the ball with ch5, dc into the chsp all across for ever more. So that'll be quick and easy and I'm planning to introduce Boyf to the joys of blocking tonight. He will LOVE having a wet thing and loads of pins in his bed! LOVE! Haha.
Now, usually I'd want to split that part of the blog and the next part of the blog into two but I have things to write about for the rest of the week and I'm dead excited about this so I'm going to carry on. Apologies for the essay...
So, I messaged Verity who gave me all sorts of advice about how to dye with food colouring. You can find all sorts of info about it on the web but she's done it a lot and she's my friend and therefore I get a free load of brill info from the horse's mouth as it were. She told me about vinegar. You need to soak the thing in vinegar before you dye it to help it take up the dye. I didn't have a lot of vinegar so I used this stuff:
Well diluted. I guess you're meant to leave it for half an hour or so, so that all of the fibres are properly soaked but I didn't have the patience for that. Oh no. I'm guessing I left it for about 15/20 minutes whilst I emptied the dishwasher, filled it and then searched for the cake dyes... This is all we had:
I really was hoping for some blue and green but we work with what we've got don't we? Therefore I used the red, as there was the most there. In my head I was going to put a stronger solution on the flowery bits and then a weaker solution on the rest of the shawl to make those pop but that just didn't happen. I ended up pouring the whole solution, diluted, into a cake tin to wiggling the shawl around a bit. It looked like this:
Which was a portent of what was coming - deffo no bright, blood red which is kind of what I hoped... Then came time for the 'saran wrap'. When I was dying first time, I came across that phrase, which is the American way of saying cling film and assumed it meant like a thin gauze-y material. I've no idea why. I've also no idea why I didn't just google it seeing as my instructions were from the internet. I ended up using my hair dying towel then and half of the colour went on there rather than the yarn... but this time I had Verity to remind me that it was cling film. It's harder to wrap a shawl in cling film than you might imagine and it ended up looking like a blood bath in my utility room...
But I did it. And then it was time to put it into the microwave. Vezza said about three 4/5 minute bursts but I didn't ask what heat level or whether to let it cool in between. So I watched for the first four minutes:
That's my casually interested face. And then for the second four minutes I did some crochet in another room. Then I head a bang and this happened:
Then I went upstairs to block it, hoping that it would be done for this morning. I tried a slightly different style this time. I put the bottom point at the corner of the bed and slowly pinned the edges to their side of the bed, bit by bit, and then afterwards I came to pin the middle bit and across the top, stretching gently. It worked much better than my usual way which is to start with the top and then stretch the point to within an inch of it's life, working and stretching towards the pins already in place at the top. I find that the original pins often pop out of place and I can't stretch the point into a proper triangle at the bottom, it's kind of longer and pointier whereas I like a corner of a square kind of effect. Does that make sense? Anyway, this is what it looked like:
Which is probably the worst photo ever in terms of colour, composition and focus but it does show what it looks like. And how I'm a sloppy blocker in terms of getting the points even but they'll relax a little anyway and if anybody notices then they're too close - step away.
This is a pretty good representation of the colour. It's maybe a little dark but it's like amethyst isn't it? Which is deffo not a colour I would ever make a shawl in but it certainly is one that I appreciate and I'm glad I've now got a shawl in it. :) I kind of didn't think of the effect of working the red over the grey. I assumed I wouldn't get a bright bright red but maybe more cherry-ish. Dee will be laughing at me here, I really have no idea when it comes to colours (but I'm still right about kingfisher/teal...). And this is what it looked like this morning:
And now we come back to the do as I say, not as I do. The dye lots still show. I can't photograph it very well but I've tried. It's less about the colour I think and more about the texture which means that one of the dye lots (the original) has taken up the dye in a much nicer way, it much more blue-y purple whereas the second dye lot has an almost orange tone which doesn't work that well with the amethyst. I do think that if I'd have managed my blue and green higgle-de-piggle-de idea that that would have been much better hidden. However, I also know that nobody's looking at dye lots and if they are, again, they're too close and need to step. away. thank. you. very. much.
Can you see how the one further away is much less hairy? Texture deffo shows up better in the photos but I guess that the colour is affected by the texture so maybe that's actually the same but the texture makes it different? Ooooooh, I don't know. And I don't care.
Dye lots matter.
Over-dying won't change that.
When you've got it wrong, stop worrying about it, they're all just too close.
And that's my lesson for today over folks.
Love, Eleanor. xxxxxx

But what happens when you are the one looking for the idea, and not the other way around? Summoned or forced inspiration can often turn out some pretty embarrassing-bad ideas before you come across a diamond in the rough.
Like that one time where I thought it'd be awesome to write an entire book about a girl who pisses off a gypsy known as the Tarantula Lady, then starts seeing tarantulas everywhere, even though nobody else can see them. THE HORROR!
Um, so yeah. I find that during these times of Currently Seeking Kick Ass Story Ideas, our brains always insist on finding, then seriously considering and dissecting the idea of, terrible ideas that will end up fizzling out after a few good brainstorming sessions that leave you feeling disoriented and lost and completely unsure if you're capable of coming up with anything at all, ever again.
So what's the trick to getting through all the crap and right to the good stuff that will end up turning into The One? (Of the moment, anyway.) Getting through all the crap, of course!
While there isn't really a way to altogether skip that painful idea phase, spending a whole lot of brain energy on a "meh" story idea that ends up getting banished forever is anything but wasted time. In the end it will have helped force you forward enough to come across a much better idea, one that you will see the light with and have your glorious EUREKA! moment.
It's the same important electric-magic that you get with the ideas that find you, just... delayed a little. And even though it may seem like certain trends or other YA things are moving at a ridiculous pace, the truth of the matter is that publishing is most often very, very slow.
So dive right into those Tarantula Lady ideas, spend some time trying to figure them out, then when it's time to do so, just move on and don't feel obligated to carry out your previous efforts with it. You'll thank yourself later!

Robert Spencer, one of the nation's leading experts on the Islamic religion, says he doesn't understand why the Bush administration has not jumped on a recent report that confirms former dictator Saddam Hussein intended to reconstitute his weapons of mass destruction.
Recently CBS's 60 Minutes aired an interview with George Piro, a Lebanese-born FBI agent, who debriefed Saddam Hussein following his capture in December 2003. Piro was able to get Hussein to admit that while he did not have active WMD programs in 2003, he wanted to reconstitute all of them — chemical, biological, and even nuclear.
Robert Spencer, director of Jihad Watch, says the White House should be all over this story. "It's ironic really, that oddly enough the Bush administration — with so much to lose and so much damage to its credibility over the years because of these allegations — has not jumped on these kinds of reports and made sure that they came to the broadest audience possible," he ponders.

Let's not forget that just last week Iran threatened to blast Israel off the map. So what part of "we need to have anti-nuclear abilities" right next to this country who wants to obliterate the rest of the world.
Ahmadinejad: Iran will not back down in nuclear row
"They should know that the Iranian nation will not retreat one iota from its nuclear rights," Ahmadinejad told the crowd which had gathered in the capital Tehran for the 29th anniversary of the revolution that toppled the US-backed shah.
'Death to Israel'
At Tehran's Azadi square, Ahmadinejad asked the crowd: "Were you ready to retreat from your nuclear rights one step or one iota?" The demonstrators chanted: "No, nuclear energy is our obvious right."
He then asked, "Is there anyone among the Iranian people who supports the Zionist regime?" The crowd replied "no," and shouted "death Israel."

But here in our own backyard, Iowa, we have a Muslim praying in the Iowa State House meeting who uttered a most reprehensible phrase.
Iowa lawmaker criticizes Islamic prayer
Chad Groening – OneNewsNow – 2/11/2008 10:00:00 AM
An Iowa lawmaker says it's not appropriate for an Islamic religious leader to give a prayer on the floor of the State House which calls for "victory over disbelievers."
It has been a common practice in the Iowa State House for individual members of the Legislature to invite religious leaders to open each day of legislative business. But in January, on the opening day of the 2008 session, Democratic State Representative Ako Abdul-Samad, the only Muslim member of the Iowa Legislature, invited a Muslim cleric to give the prayer.
During his speech, the cleric included the phrase "victory over disbelievers" — words that prompted reaction from some of the lawmakers, including Republican Gary Worthan. "The way the Jihadists interpret that phrase — 'victory over disbelievers' — there are only two ways to attain that, and that is either convert them to Islam or kill them," says the lawmaker. "That's the literal interpretation that the Jihadists use — and so that struck right at my heart."
Of course, this week couldn't be a better week to remember what this is all really about.
Six tied to 9/11 attacks to face death penalty
By PAULINE JELINEK
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon has charged six detainees at Guantanamo Bay with murder and war crimes in connection with the Sept. 11 attacks, it was announced today. Officials said they'll seek the death penalty in what would be the first trials under the terrorism-era military tribunal system.
"These charges allege a long term, highly sophisticated, organized plan by al-Qaida to attack the United States of America," Brig. Gen. Thomas W. Hartmann, the legal adviser to the tribunal system, told reporters. He added that the charges have been sworn "against six individuals alleged to be responsible for the planning and execution of the attacks" which occurred on Sept. 11, 2001 and killed nearly 3,000 people.

Emperor & Rick Hanapi
Emperor Alapai Hanapi was born on August 26, 1907, and we lost him at the age of 87 on July 27, 1995.

His son, Rick Kawaihoa Hanapi, born in 1948, became the next generation Hanapi to perform Hawaiian music.

WHO can believe that it has been 20 years since one of the most famous Scottish exports hit our screens?
February 23rd marks the anniversary of Danny Boyle's era-defining, brilliant and shocking cult classic, Trainspotting.
The film is still so popular to this day that it is often quoted, imitated or written about.
A chaotic, darkly humorous and often provocative film, it truly was a landmark in Scottish film-making.
It has since launched the international careers of Ewan McGregor, Kevin McKidd and Kelly Macdonald, as well as confirming the star-status of local favourites such as Robert Carlyle, Peter Mullan and James Cosmo.
Why not put your knowledge of our favourite reprobates to the test.

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For Ice Cream
April 11, 2011
Is there anything better than a cold ice cream on a hot day? The answer: NO! Personally, I LOVE ice cream/fro-yo/ gelato and I eat it every day. Thankfully, Brazil feels the same way about ice cream and offers lots of different kinds (see Sorvete Italia)! On almost every block in Leblon or Ipanema you will find some sort of this delicious frozen treat.
Today is my birthday so felt it fitting to post about my favorite dessert:)
There are many 'pinkberry' like fro-yo places…. I am not a fan so wont be covering them (sorry guys, I like my frozen treats sweet not tart!) Yogi is fat free fro-yo, but this is NOT average frozen yogurt…
They have 2 frozen yogurt flavors: regular (ie vanilla) and chocolate. Now you can have it the regular boring style in a cup with some toppings, but with Yogi you actually can design your own flavor! Step 1- pick your flavor. Step 2- select 3 ingredients that would create your perfect frozen dessert from frozen fruits (they get crushed in), fresh fruits, candy toppings or nuts. Step 3- they mash is all together, creating YOUR personalized treat! My fav is chocolate base with frozen strawberries, coconut and some peanuts mmmm good!
Gelato is also extremely popular here in Brazil (again see Sorvete Italia)! Personally, nothing compares to 16 Handles in NYC, but I would say that the gelato version in Buzios: Sorveteria Square comes pretty close. As you can see above there are many flavors of gelato to choose from, so grab a scooper and start creating your favorite flavor combination! After you are satisfied with your flavor selection, head over to the toppings bar: This is the BEST part! It feels like you are in the 'Sunday Bar' line at a Bar Mitzvah but no one is pushing and shoving you out of the way and as a bonus there are way more toppings:) That marshmellow fluff gets me every time!
Whether you crave soft serve or gelato, while in Brazil you will never feel deprived of your favorite frozen treat

"Really Cleaned My Anus": Lady's Brazen Endorsement Of Cushelle Toilet Paper Goes Viral
If you haven't checked your social media accounts in the last few fours, this will probably be all over it by now.
UK toilet paper brand Cushelle has been given a rather brash endorsement on the front of its packs by a lady from Kent named Janet, according to a photo posted on Reddit by one of its users, which came with the comment "That's really good to know, Janet".
The photo has since gone viral on social media…
Cushelle's new marketing idea, get positive reviews from customers front and centre on pack. pic.twitter.com/Z0GjBeADbr
— Rob & Sam (@RobSamCreatives) May 9, 2017
However, the shock and hilarity of the post was spoilt soon enough, with some social media users pointing out that the packaging had been photoshopped.
Here's what the original packaging looks like…
We can only assume that Cushelle's toilet rolls have been flying off the shelves as a result of Janet's endorsement.

Sims 4: Trade-offs
The official Sims website has released a new blog post with more details about The Sims 4. I certainly like the look of the screenshot they provided (shown above). Here are just a few of the points they mentioned in the post.
The blog post talks about the design trade-offs that had to be made in order to create a new game:
So, rather than include toddlers, we chose to go deeper on the features that make Sims come alive: meaningful and often amusing emotions; more believable motion and interactions; more tools in Create A Sim, and more realistic (and sometimes weird!) Sim behavior. Instead of pools, we chose to develop key new features in Build Mode: direct manipulation, building a house room-by-room and being able to exchange your custom rooms easily, to make the immediate environment even more relatable and interactive for your Sim.
They also mentioned the improvements they've made to the realism of the games, including many new animations:
No more looking at the UI to figure out how your Sims are feeling – just look at their faces, posture, movements. That's where you'll see about 320 new emotion-based animations, as well as over 600 reactions to objects.
And we'll finally be getting some actual gameplay footage soon:
We'll be releasing over 15 minutes of in-game Live Mode footage (with complete UI) in the next two weeks.
Those are just a few of the highlights from the blog post. I have to say, I'm looking forward to the actual gameplay footage, to see what the UI looks like, and how the Sims act in 'normal' situations.
The official blog post has received quite a few negative responses, but I feel like there are some positive things on the horizon for the Sims franchise. Yes, The Sims 4 will be different from previous games, and yes, they're excluding some features that people will miss. But we've been playing The Sims 3 for 5 years now; I think some change is definitely going to be a good thing. We already know that the Sims franchise is one built around expansion packs, stuff packs and other DLC, so I can't say I'm too surprised that EA is building The Sims 4 base game with this in mind.

Skift Take
Uber is undoubtedly growing quickly and won a small victory with approval to operate in NYC, which appears to be enough work without raising a new round of funding, for now.
Uber co-founder and CEO Travis Kalanick says the startup is not raising funding, as an exclusive Reuters story published earlier today states.
In response to questions from Skift requesting more details on the startup's round of funding, Kalanick responded:
The Reuters story is completely false and the product of extremely poor reporting and journalistic ethic.
This company has not pitched a single investor since November 2011 and has not sought any funding whatsoever since then.
CEO, Uber
Kalanick did not comment on the $1 billion valuation.
Uber was approved on Friday to be the first e-hail app participant in New York's one-year E-Hail Pilot Program.
