The severe winters and lack of low income housing are drawbacks to living in Minneapolis.

If you aren't from Minnesota, you will notice a di - 4/15/2016
Minnesota natives are so rude. They will just look at you with their mouth open instead of replying. The Norwegian roots make these people have a culture all their own. Clerks in stores never say hello or thank you, they just look at u with their mouth hanging open...won't even tell you the total. This place is not for friendly people! The liberal mindset is out of control and there are rainbow flags in front of churches. People try their hardest to avoid neighbors, some even never said hello after 6 years! No one holds doors open, but if you do, they will never say thank you. Just very self centered. Also, the people will try and say it is the smartest state too...[Comment on this Posting]

Character &Culture - 6/30/2015
I grew up strictly white middle class in the suburbs of Hopkins and Minnetonka in the '70s and '80s---it was a good time and a good place to grow up; but very sheltered also. Like anywhere, kids get involved in sports so the winters aren't bad with team sports and the health club, or YMCA to stay busy; and lots of outdoor skating and later on, skiing at Afton. And we had Ridgedale Mall--Dayton's, all that. Now there is the Mall of America also. This state suited me very well as a young guy, I naturally loved fishing and hunting. Sports aplenty also: soccer, baseball, basketball, golf. Lot's of great golf here and lakes for boating in summer. And cabins/lakes for fishing, waterskiing; or snowmobiling and ice-fishing in winter. Beautiful lakes to see and play on all over the state: Clearwater (Annandale), Minnetonka, Mille Lacs, the Boundary Water, Winnie, Lake of the Woods. Up North resembles Canada. Now for practicalities: lots of intelligent,creative,oppressed, and repressed people. They live in their own minds and are closed off, many extremely attractive but can also be very mean and cold---and dark (like the weather for half of year). Extremely passive aggressive--they will ice you and sabotage you and band against you--if you're not 'normal'. Weather is just brutally oppressive and apocalyptic in winter. Summer is paradise if you have money for a boat and/ir cabin. Uptown is lovely..Calhoun and Harriet for walking, biking, blading, sailing. Lastly I would recommend William's in Uptown and Chino-Latino,MagersQuinn books, Half-price books (St.Louis Park), cruising University Ave. and around the U. Watching Gopher's hockey. First Ave. for a club. Hopkins. Annual Film festival in Minneapolis, Sally's Bar, West Bank, East Bank, Exploring just driving all over St.Paul, MPLS, the State Fair, St.Thomas area Ford Parkway, Minnehaha Falls, the Mississipi...etc. Overall, Winter is not really feasible, the wealthy are able to take refuge in Fl. I'm just leaving altogether, back to L.A., Orange, and Hermosa..I always miss the character, the history and the culture though, it has inspired guys like the Coen brothers, Dylan, Prince, F.Scott Fitzgerald,O.E. Rolvaag, Lewis, Sigurd Olson,countless actors, inventors, etc., then they all leave it behind.[Comment on this Posting]
no traffic! - 4/1/2015
I just moved back here from Seattle, and the biggest relief is that there is virtually no traffic. I have never had such good gas mileage as traffic moves easily here, even at "rush houra" Seattle is gridlock 24 hours a day. [Comment on this Posting]
Very expensive, yet "cheap" houses - 1/8/2015
I lived in Minnesota for most of my adult life. When I was in my 40s, I took a transfer to South Carolina. I was astonished by how much cheaper it was, in terms of housing, medical, food, etc. Then, I took another transfer to Texas, where it was even cheaper, in terms of housing, medical, food, and taxes (no state tax).
Minnesota's houses are small, dark, not energy efficient, and they cost A LOT compared to other areas of the country. I'm back in MN now (again, for job), and the home I have now is the most expensive home that I've ever owned, and it pales in comparison to the houses I had in the other states, and those houses cost about 30% less.
I'm sorry, but 10x10 is NOT a bedroom... it is a closet, with windows.[Comment on this Posting]

Expensive housing, but the buildings are "cheap" - 10/3/2013
I lived in Minnesota most of my life. In my 40s, I made a sojourn to the South and lived in Texas for a while. When I returned to Minnesota, I was disgusted by the lack of newer, affordable, housing in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul) area. In the South, they figure a home's value on the cost per square foot. I always thought that was as meaningful as pricing a car by the pound. HOWEVER... housing in the Twin Cities costs about 2 to 2.5 times more per square foot, than housing in the South. Moreover, the housing here is "old", and not of very good quality. Room sizes are ridiculously small, with $290-$350,000 homes having master bedrooms that are routinely about 12 x 14. In cheaper homes, the bedrooms are 10x10 and even 9x10. Those are closets, not bedrooms.
Think hard before moving here. If you are looking for value in housing, look elsewhere.[Comment on this Posting]
Looking to Move to either Oregon, Texas or Georgia - 5/23/2013
I live in Minnesota (manysnowta) and would to consider relocating to either Portland, Houston, or Atlanta. Does anyone have a good suggestion on either one? While there is crime anywhere you go, I would certainly prefer one with less crime. A good economy with great social culture for the Arts and outdoor sports will be great too, if available.
Any ideas or preference will be much appreciated.

Minneapolis MN - 3/26/2013
Great place to raise a family. Plenty to do; culture; night life and nature. I think its biggest showcase is the lakes (Calhoun; Nokomis; Harriet and Lake of the Isles). Perfect for bikers, runners and walkers. Major sports teams to follow and a Big Ten university. Not too bad either for the foodies. Downfall; long winters, short summers and taxes are a but high.[Comment on this Posting]
Minneapolis - 3/5/2013
The city of Minneapolis offers many of the cultural and intellectual attractions of a big city, but also offers the affordability and convenience of a medium-size city. We have the Guthrie Theater, major league sports franchises, the University of Minnesota, and many corporate headquarters. You will not find the equivalent in Indianapolis, for example.
On the other hand, this metropolitan area does have its shortcomings. Public transportation isn't very good, the Winters are long and usually severe, and there isn't a great deal of ethnic diversity. The people who were born and raised here tend to not be socially inclusive.
If you like to bicycle, from April to October, the Twin Cities area is one of the best places in the United States. We have an excellent network of bicycle trails and continue to add more. [Comment on this Posting]
Housing a bit above National Average, But.... - 12/19/2012
....as with many metro areas, you have numerous micro economies of scale. And within Mpls proper you have a huge swing from north to south and even from neighborhood to neighborhood. This isn't a market worth navigating without an agent, for sure. [Comment on this Posting]
Artistic Fire - 11/3/2012
Minneapolis offers a rich and diverse culture for the arts. Barriers based on race, ethnic or gender orientation do not have the strongholds here, as evidenced by a widespread audience receptivity and support---typically not seen in such places as Chicago. Talent and creativity tend to be readily and enthusiastically received, regardless of the "packaging". Minus such artificial restraints and political trappings, talent will go far here. However, this means also that the standard for excellence is high. But, in meeting this challenge, artists can expect to receive respect and support within a brilliant spectrum of opportunities. It's an artistic fire here that ignites the hearts and passions of Minnesotans. [Comment on this Posting]
It's ok - 10/3/2012
I moved here from Chicago, and Chicago it is not. So if you are looking for big city, do not move here. However, if you are looking for a change, as I was at the time I moved here 7 years ago, then it's worth a weekend trip to visit before you move. I moved here blindly. So here are my pros/cons for anyone considering a move here.
Pros: great bike trails, great for outdoor enthusiast( ESP if you like to hunt and fish), very clean, good mix of city with culture and outdoor activities, decent restaurants, libraries, pretty in every season, traffic is easy compared to other cities, major corporations based here. Cons: winter is very cold, difficult to meet people, people who grow up here never leave which makes it difficult to break into social circles, found it difficult to make female friendships, snow stays on the ground for many months-blanket of white, a little more single mindedness than I like-meaning people don't leave MN often to experience other states -which means they carry a superior attitude, not a good sushi restaurant in town, always very quiet-sometimes I feel as if I'm the only one in the city, don't let strangers in - will be nice to your face but Minnesotans can't handle confrontation-I experienced this on several occasions. All in all it was a good experience coming from Chicago. I always thought every city was like Chicago.:) [Comment on this Posting]
Not great for young people of color, but plenty of - 6/24/2012
I will preface my review of Minneapolis with the following series of caveats, so you know that some of my observations may be of no relevance to you. I am a single "person of color" born and raised in Chicago. I moved here four years ago, so I don't have a lifetime of experience. Also, the majority of my experience here outside of work involves Minneapolis and Saint Paul, not adjacent suburbs.
So based on my experience in the last several years, here is my Twin Cities pro/con list.
Pro: If you are the outdoorsy sort, this is a great place for you. There are great biking trails and great places to enjoy water. If you like outdoor sports, the Twins' new ballpark is gorgeous (this coming from a guy who grew up going to Wrigley).
Pro: It's a great place to start/advance your career. I moved here in part due to the career opportunities. Many major corporations either have their headquarters or a major corporate campus in the area. I've personally done consulting work for Accenture, UnitedHealth Group, Target and Ameriprise Financial since I've been here. There is also an excellent balance of industry lines (insurance, health care, finance, retail, consumer goods). If you're in the nonprofit sector, you're definitely in luck. There is a spirit of giving in the local workforce, and there are plenty of opportunities to put your skills to use for good causes.
Pro: Cleanliness. My friends (all two of them) who have visited me here marveled at how clean the metro area is. People here take great pride in their cities, and the care they demonstrate showcases this pride.
Pro: If you're into indie rock, this is a great place to be. People here rave about the independent music scene. I am not going to say it rivals Austin and other such hipster heavens, but I know a lot of people adore the local music culture here.
Pro: The cost of living here is very low. You can get more bang for your housing buck in square footage in the real estate and rental markets. You have a wide variety of neighborhood options.
Pro: This is an extremely educated, fit populace. People here take pride in living active lifestyles, so the time they get to spend outdoors is often pursuing physical activity. If you're into healthy dining, the co-op grocery store culture fosters a lifestyle built upon good eating habits.
Pro: The art scene here outside of music is also very popular. There are several good museums (I am partial to the Walker). If you're into theatre, there are several well-regarded independent theater groups. Additionally, the amount of Broadway shows that have engagements in this area is staggeringly high for a metro area of this size.
Pro: The public transit system is good enough to maintain a fairly green lifestyle. However, most people do prefer driving.
Pro: The populations is highly educated. If you want to further your own education, there are plenty of options, including a Big 10 school in the heart of town and several schools that cater to working adults. If you have children, the schools here are quite good from what I've heard.
Pro: The airport is clean and convenient.
Pro: People here shop locally. Local markets, breweries, etc. are very popular here. Sure, there are plenty of chain stores and restaurants in the area, but for those who rebel against the overcorporitization (if that is even a word) of America can find a niche here.
Pro: Minneapolis is a city of neighborhoods. Neighborhoods have their little quirks and flavor that people identify with. While it's not the same as New York or Boston, I'm guessing that's not what you're expecting.
Con: Here comes the ugly part. People here are very provincial and hang out in cliques. Many have had the same friends since middle school, so unless you fit into a very specific niche social circle, it will be challenging to find friends.
Con: The area is very segregated. People like to talk up the report from years ago that Minneapolis-St. Paul had the highest number of multiracial births in America. That's great, but there is way more mixed race procreating than mixed race marriage going on here.
Con: If you're single, this is a challenging place to meet your mate. People here do tend to marry young and often with people they've known since childhood.
Con: It's very hard to solve interpersonal problems here due to the non-confrontational nature of the culture here. Confronting a situation is often perceived as unnecessarily rocking the boat. If you're comfortable with a passive aggressive way of life, then more power to you. If you aren't, then fair warning, you will encounter a bit of culture shock.
Con: The whole "Minnesota nice" thing has been well-documented here, so I won't go too far into it. But from what I've read, people hit the nail right on the head.
Con: If you are a "person of color," even the most open minded people may treat you like some kind of sociological experiment. If you're a person of color and a transplant, your presence in the cities must be accompanied with an explanation. Unfortunately, a lot of the people of color in this area came here by way of the housing projects in major cities being torn down. Therefore, you're often guilty until proven innocent in social situations.
Con: This isn't really a con, just an observation. The nightlife here is based more on dive bars where dudes drink beer and ladies (or "gals") drink wine. If you prefer more "urban" nightlife options that play hip hop music and lounge environments, your choices are pretty slim.
Overall, I can objectively say this is a good place to live. However, before you move here, make sure you know what you're getting into and don't think about the winter weather.[Comment on this Posting]
Quality of Life - 5/27/2012
Minneapolis is what I call a very negotiable city. It is very easy to get around by car. If you need to get to one extreme end of the metro area to the other, it is possible to do without taking the whole day. Taking the bus however possible will take more time. This is a great city to bike! It is beautiful with 4 distinct seasons. Tree lined streets in the summer, beautiful swimming lakes right in the city. Great arts, including visual, theatre and music and museums. Many options for schools, great summer programs for kids.
In the winter we do get snow!! It can be a game changer to drive in the snow, transportation will take longer. But then again we have winter sports! City skating rinks, hockey, cross country skiing right in the city.
[Comment on this Posting]
Minnesota Nice = Passive Aggressive - 3/9/2012
Worst place to live ever! People are so rude! Jobs are plentiful if you dont mind working amongst complete jerks. Most are crazy liberal, vegan, and snobby. So pathetically self righteous. And of course their opinions are the only correct ones. Save yourself the aggravation and move somwhere else. The winters are almost as miserable as the people.[Comment on this Posting]

Microsoft Corporation said Tuesday it would delay the release of its 64-bit operating systems for computers based on x86-64 processors to the first half of 2005 from this year citing necessity for additional "tuning and testing" time for the systems.
"We now anticipate Windows Server 2003 SP1 and Windows Server 2003 for 64-bit Extended Systems will ship in the first half of 2005, whereas we previously estimated the release timing for both to be the end of 2004. Additionally, given Windows XP 64-bit for 64-bit Extended Systems is also tied to Windows Server 2003 SP1, it will also ship the first half of 2005," a Microsoft spokeswoman told eWeek.
Microsoft originally planned to release its operating systems for systems powered by x86 processors with 64-bit capability in late 2003 or early 2004. However, in mid-October 2003 the world's largest software maker said it would only be in a position to ship the new products only in Q4 2004.
"Microsoft wants to allow sufficient time for tuning and testing of [Windows Server 2003] SP1 and x[86-]64, particularly for the server-relevant security enhancements from Windows XP SP2, which is due to release to manufacturing in August," the spokeswoman for Microsoft said.
Currently Microsoft offers beta versions of its operating systems for 64-bit Extended Systems to those who want to preview capabilities of the new software. However, publicly available beta versions of Windows for x86-64 computers cannot be installed on systems based on Intel's x86-64 processors, it was recently discovered.
Transition to 64-bit Inevitable
"The shift to 64-bit computing on the desktop is nearly here… This is going to be a really wonderful transition," Bill Gates promised during an hour-long talk at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) in
Right now the software giant is making tremendous efforts to convince hardware manufacturers to develop drivers for forthcoming 64-bit operating systems for desktops. The necessity for the move is very high, as with no drivers for the majority of hardware, personal computers with 64-bit processors with 64-bit OS will not become popular among end-users.
Microsoft Corporation is projected to deliver a version of Windows XP for 64-bit x86 processors by the end of the year and it means that at least some hardware used in personal computers should function properly with such operating system.
Microsoft and its products have historically been a major driving force for technology progress. In the past, the new versions of the company's operating systems encouraged customers to switch to newer hardware, including Pentium 4 processors from Intel. But as Intel keeps away from desktop 64-bit chips right now, its arch-rival AMD is gaining momentum with its Athlon 64 and Opteron processors for mobile, desktop and server applications that can work in both 32-bit and 64-bit modes.
By the end of next year nearly all CPUs from Advanced Micro Devices will be 64-bit capable, according to estimations. With hundreds of thousands and millions of AMD64 chips shipped in 2003 and to be supplied in 2004 respectively, there is a huge target market for Microsoft's new operating systems that take advantage of the x86-64 technology.
Intel promised to deliver its desktop processors with 64-bit capabilities when there is a right infrastructure to support such chips, e.g. operating system and enough drivers for various types of hardware. With Windows XP for 64-bit desktop machines coming later this year, Intel should address the emerging market.

Mary Schook has been an eye lash specialist since 2004 when she become a full-time makeup artist. Since then, she has worked on the eye makeup styles of models and celebrities and has found some common threads that every women should take to note of to sustain their ravishing and voluminous lashes, according to LifeGoesStrong.com.
Schook believes that good lash health is an indicator of overall health, so making sure that you're healthy and taking the right vitamins can help exponentially. Biotin is one such supplement - this is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin that can be found in any nutritional store and can increase circulation to deliver needed nutrients to your lashes.
Lastly, Schook believes that waterproof mascara and constantly painting your lashes can harm your look. She recommends avoiding waterproof mascara and giving your lashes a day off every once and awhile.
For contact lens wearers and ladies with sensitive eyes, blinc Mascara could be the ideal choice. This product will protect your makeup from running, flaking and smudging throughout the day and can be taken off without harsh makeup remover.

Radar online has an article called: VIRAL STRAIN 2008 is shaping up to be a bad year for guerrilla advertising and even that headline bothers me. Viral and Guerilla is not even close the same thing, leave it to the ad-amateurs to get these two confused. Then the article starts with "2007 was the year when so-called "guerrilla advertising," or "viral marketing," made its national debut. " Oh puh-lease, was the writer born in 2007? Neither guerilla advertising nor viral advertising is that young, the first exposed viral campaign here is from 2000, though offline virals have been created since 1987 (for Apple mac - look it up), and guerilla advertising goes way back to the days when I was still preoccupied with learning how to walk. That's a long time ago, folks.
Number ten on their list of "crappiest viral advertising campaigns in 2008 thus far" is... Guinness good times! Yes, the fake "Orgy" advert, or should I call it "user generated"? Either way that ad is so fake fake fake that Diageo has demanded that the group sex Guinness viral should be pulled from YouTube - but as usual, users fight back and that video will never die as fans of it keep posting hundreds of copies (ignoring that useless youtube TOS - here's a tip youtube enforce your terms of service or forget about having any kthxbye).
I knew that this day would come, when ads, fake ads, and stealthy virals muddled the water so much we no longer know which is which. I even said so in Viral marketings worst nightmare - Hoaxes back in feb 2005 - related is Justin's rant The Hidden (in Plain Sight) Persuaders debate in December 2004. What is a brand to do when the brand is clearly owned by the consumer and not themselves these days? Will our jobs as advertisers switch over to pure PR, the panic kind that puts out fires from bad user generated ads and pushes the good ones further? I feel like screaming "kids, get off my lawn!". Brands are usergenerated, and if you think about it - they always were. Advertisers have only ever played with an illusion of control over a brand - like surfers on waves, it's the ocean that calls the shots not you. The sooner brands wise up to this, the better. You'll still need one mean surfer to manage to stay afloat in rough waves. Call us.
There's also a healthy discussion going on at the post abot the Fake Scion adverts: Spec work going around the web as real ads - is there any way to stop that? Should we even try?. If you fancy search fake viral and you'll have plenty of reading from fake virals past.
Still, how hard can it be to do a little research? A college-kid should be able to handle that.
WTF is "ättestupa"?
And handle writing an article more than three short paragraphs in length. I'm surprised he didn't use the word "unprecedented" in his article. And I don't like the name of the magazine either.
We have a similar word in the UK for OAPs that don't live to avoid becoming a burden, it's called hypothermia.
However, not sure they choose to die as they do in your Swedish-land.
The Inuits (Eskimos) put the elderly on broken pieces of ice flow, and let them float away.
All Inuit are Eskimos, but not all Eskimos are Inuit. There are several Eskimo peoples who are fed up to the back teeth with well-meaning PC types calling them Inuit.
I'm not sure "Inuit" is a P.C. term.
For many centuries, outsiders called Inuit "Eskimos." Inuit no longer find this term acceptable. They prefer the name by which they have always known themselves – Inuit, which means "the people" in their own language, Inuktitut.
Source: http://www.ainc-inac.gc.ca/pr/info/info114_e.html
But you might be correct.
"Inuit" isn't a PC term in itself -- it's the name of a people -- but the indiscriminate use of it to mean "any Arctic native" is PC.
"Inuit" covers several peoples: the Inuit and Inuvialut (Canada), the Inupiat (northern Alaska), and the Kalaallit (Greenland), who share common ancestry and similar cultures and languages.
Also living in the Arctic are the Yupik peoples, who live in central Alaska and Siberia.They have different ancestry, cultures, and languages, and would be offended to be misidentified as Inuit.
"Eskimo" is generally accepted as a blanket term for both Iniut and Yupik peoples, as no other word exists. Contrary to popular belief, it is not inherently pejorative; it derives from a word for either "people who string nets on snowshoes" or "people who speak another language" (not "eaters of raw meat", as the myth would have it).

M.A.C Makeup Cult of Cherry Haul
Hi Bellas,
Tuesday night I was able to go to the MAC pre-release party at my local freestanding store. I was rolling deep! I brought my two besties and my two friends also met me there. While I was there I also met a few of my youtube and blog readers! They were so sweet...if you see me on the street don't forget to holler!
Check out my haul vid!
On to the pics!
Funnily enough, I had already made a list of products that I wanted to get before I even got there. Like many of you, I did my research on specktra beforehand. I got everything on my list except for one lipstick which I switched out for a different gloss. I'm trying to spend wisely because I have some large makeup expenses coming up which I'll be sharing with you soon :)
Spiced Chocolate quad and Tempting quad
I picked up 4 lip products. Truly, the lippies in this collection were to die for. It takes a bit to get used to some of the darker colors but they are great items to add to your lip collection. They have many colors which are in the cherry color realm...but there are also 2 pretty neutral colors for those who prefer a toned down lip.
Bing matteen, Lightly Ripe l/s, So Scarlet l/s, Jampacked l/g
Bing Matteen
First off, I picked up Bing. This is a matteen lipstick and the color reminds me of a dark eggplant. This is definitely a high fashion/editorial lipstick for the fall. If you can step out of your comfort zone, this lipstick is truly gorgeous. It's pretty dark but you can see the purple radiating through. I'm saving this for a future fashion shoot. In my haul video I'm wearing this color. My tip to you all is that if you are wearing a bold, dark lip, please make sure to add some color to your face. I was wearing bronzer...if not, bold lips can tend to make you look drowned out and more gothic than glamorous. Of course, if that is your style, rock on!
So Scarlet Lipstick
Next I picked up So Scarlet lipstick. I loveeeee this color! Truly gorgeous...if you're afraid of a bold, red lip, this is the perfect compromise. It has a bit of a berry tone in there so it is more user friendly. The finish is Amplified so you know that it goes on super creamy. I can't wait to wear this new color. You'll definitely be seeing it in my next tutorial.
Lightly Ripe Lipstick
I also picked up Lightly Ripe lipstick. The finish is a lustre which makes it even more perfect for an everyday lipstick. I tried it on and I fell in love...it's exactly my lip color but better! I'm going to buy a backup or two for myself and my kit. I really don't see anyone going wrong with this color. Before this, Viva Glam V was my go to color...but Lightly Ripe is giving it some steep competition.
Jampacked Lipglass
The last lippie I picked up is Jampacked Lipglass. I chose it because it was a beautiful plum color. I definitely don't have a similar color in my collection. It reminded me a bit of Viva Glam VI but a little darker. It's definitely good to have some plums in your collection for the fall. It has just enough plum in it for you more neutral girls and you can also amp it up by wearing a coordinating liner or lipstick underneath.
Now for the swatches! Top L to R: So Scarlet l/s and Bing Mattene
Bottom L to R: Lightly Ripe l/s and Jampacked l/g
The Blushes
I skipped out on the blushes on this collection because the pink blush seemed a bit too light for me and the purple blush didn't really catch my eye. My bestie picked up Plum Du Bois...I might see how she likes it and go back for it if it's a winner.
The Quads
I did however purchase two quads. I skipped on the Shadowy Lady quad because I had two of the four colors in the quad-shadowy lady and deep truth. If you don't have too many similar colors, I highly suggest purchasing these pre-made quads because the colors coordinate really well and it's actually a better deal.
Tempting Quad
First off, I knew I was getting the Tempting quad. The bright green color was too gorgeous to resist! I'm a sucker for bright greens.
Swatches from L to R: Next to Nothing (frost), Sharp (satin), Tempting (lustre), Dark Edge (Satin)
Here's a little bit of info on the eyeshadows:
Tempting: Tempting e/s (one of the better lustres) is a permanent color that I already have. However, I don't mind having a backup because it's a beautiful bronze color that would look good on everybody. I actually wore this color in my Hepcat e/s tutorial.
Next to Nothing: This is a nude colored frost which would make a perfect highlighter. I like the tone of it because it's perfect for blending out harsh edges of eyeshadow. I'm not usually excited about the highlighter colors included in quads, but I really like this one.
Dark Edge: This satin eyeshadow is a dark brown color. Everybody needs a color like this in their collection. It's great for lining the eyes, and contouring the crease.
Sharp: Save the best for last! This satin e/s is extremely pigmented and just as vibrant as it looks on the pan. I'm a sucker for bright eyeshadows.
Spiced Chocolate Quad
This perfect for you neutral lovers out there. I love how the colors compliment each other and I think this quad would look really great on women of color.
Swatches L to R: Sweet Chesnut (frost), Spiced Chocolate (matte), Brash (veluxe pearl), Nanogold (lustre)
Spiced Chocolate: This is a great matte brown color. Since it's a matte, you can definitely use this to fill in eyebrows. It's a good essential for any eyeshadow collection.
Nanogold: This lustre is actually a color I originally picked up from the N Collection. It has a bit of pink to it which makes it a nice highlighter color for reddish/pinkish looks.
Brash: I love veluxe pearl eyeshadows. They go on so smooth. This is a gorgeous color that is the color of a penny. I don't think there's a similar color out there.
Sweet Chesnut: Many say that this lustre is a dupe of Cranberry e/s. Fortunately I don't have it so I was really excited to pick this up.
In my bag, they also included an extra - a cult of cherry apron. Too cute!
Now on to the promo party!
I decided to recreate a look I just saw on Kim Kardashian's blog. She just posted some new video tutorials on her famous smokey eye. The look is actually unbelieveably easy. I only used two eyeshadows!
This is what I Used (All MAC unless otherwise stated):
-bare canvas paint
-shroom e/s (in the video she used Naked pigment which I didn't have)
-contrast e/s
-kohl pencil in smolder
-zoomlash mascara
-strobe cream
-select moisture concealer in NW37
-mineralized satinfinish foundation in NC42
-msf natural in med dark
-sweet william creme blush
-stripdown lipliner
-fresh brew lipstick
-c-thru lipglass
This picture shows my actual skin color a lil better. I broke out the digital camera for this one.
Oh la la, check out the goodies! They also put the Overrich collection out.
As you can see, it was pretty packed in there!
Me and the promo model. She looks just like the model from the ad. But she's not, lol, cuz we asked her!
Me and the besties with our fabulous drinks! I had a chocolate martini (I couldn't even drink it because it was too strong!) and Sai had a cherry vodka thing-a-majig. And here's the bartender that made the super strong drinks!
They had a bunch of yummy hors d'oeuvres with cherries in all of them. The lil caterer man was really nice too!
That's all for now folks! Till next time, ciao bellas!

Universal Avionics Falcon 900B Flight Deck Ready for Service Entry
[Avionics Today January 24, 2014] The Universal Avionics Dassault Falcon 900B flight deck upgrade is ready to enter service after the Arizona-based company's partner Duncan Aviation completed and delivered two aircraft equipped with the new technology.

Falcon 900B operators receive improvements that are not available on current new-production aircraft, says Bruce Bunevich, regional sales manager at Universal Avionics. Included with the EFI-890R upgrade are capabilities such as Satellite-Based Augmentation System (SBAS) and Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV), Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B), Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC), Future Air Navigation System (FANS) 1/A+ and Link 2000+.
Additionally, the avionics refresh features five high-resolution Universal EFI-890R advanced flight displays with Engine Interface Units (EIU) that replace the analog gauges on in-service Falcon 900B jets.
"Universal Avionics and Duncan Aviation's upgrade program provides new technology that the Falcon 900B community has been asking for," said Bunevich. "The upgrade offers significant improvements beyond current new-production aircraft, and is specifically developed for minimal transitional flight crew training."

Tom Watson turns 64 in September, but is still followed by fans, especially the younger ones. The 5-time British Open has never won a PGA Championship, and that is all he needs to fulfill a career grand slam. He may be out of his prime, but he still has it in him, as he proved at the 2009 British Open, where was one 5-foot putt on 18 away from his 6th PGA Championship.

Here's how RW members rated this race (201 votes).
In short: Beautiful scenery and friendly runners, not intimidating for a beginner.In full: Beautiful scenery and friendly runners. Well organised but a couple of portaloos and an extra water station would improve it for next year.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Interesting run, reasonable PB potential, friendly marshallsIn full: Those who moaned about the loos - read the literature where the loo opportunties were highlighted!! The 1 min silence was appreciated by those who had not put their MP3's on at max level and continued talking... I thought the coach organisation at the start was excellent, marshalling was good although what would happen if someone was in trouble as they were fairly spaced apart??!! The hill at the end was mildly challenging but made the Finish Line a welcomed sight. Reversing the course next year will be good and mean a downhill start plus downward locks too. I carried a drink but the 3 mile water disaster must have been an issue for runners with none of their own. Can the ribbon have a date on it next year Purple Patch?? I will look out for next year's date in RW!! Well done to all finishers!!Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Fast course, well organised but could do with loos at the startIn full: The only negative point for me was the man in the Esso station closing his loo. Nice pleasent scenery along the tow-path and an initial lap of the park spread everyone out enough that overtaking was never really a problem.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Fast and flat (almost)In full: Great course, traffic-free and varied underfoot but no boggy bits. Narrow in places, but field not big enough for that to be an issue. Pretty much flat apart from climb at the finish; the reverse run should be definite pb potential. Easy enough to reach by public transport, organisation excellent. Only real complaint is lack of loos - hopefully this will be addressed next year, this year's being the inaugural event.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Great new addition to the race callendarIn full: Very interesting run which I really enjoyed. A little tough under foot but I'm a wimpy road running, not used to "off roading".Really could do with some toilets at the start and at least one more water station. Agree that the medal needs to have the year on the medal itself but that's just me being picky.The minutes silence was a nice touch but many people could not hear the loud speakers announcing it had begun and many people did not know it was going on so were chatting.Other than that, a really well organised run especially as its the first one.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: really enjoyableIn full: This was lovely. Gorgeous scenery, well organised, nice medal - and it was a welcome change to be in a race with so few runners. I hope the numbers will be small again if the race takes place again next year. And I hope it definitely will be on next year because I want to start the race with that long downhill instead of facing it after 12 miles! Thank you for including the one-minute silence before we set off.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Well organised on an interesting route with some teething problemsIn full: I found this race a bit tougher than I anticipated, perhaps because I didn't read the fine-print about it being multi-terrain. But the experience was good. The atmosphere amongst the runners was good.The water stations were an issue. A bit tough for people to be told that the 3-mile station had been nicked. There were no cups at the 9-mile when I got there either.I'd suggest that some portable toilets at the start for next year will be a big plus.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Lovely route,one to do aginIn full: But where were the toilets ? terrible to have no loo's.. that was the shambolic part of the race ,,Vicious finish but not overly taxing .. would not put me off doing it again ..Thanks to all the marshalls, the one's i saw were very encouraging ..Not sure if there were many spectators ? didn't see a lot ..Good race though and thoroughly enjoyed it ..Definitely be there next year ..Got a PB so i was happy enough ..Sue Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: An enjoyable run, well organised with a bus provided to take you from the finish to the start position (they are 13 miles apart), nice people to chat to, great service from Handy Moves for the bags, nice medal, well placed water stations.In full: A little too flat for my liking, which is the reason I would not do it again. It is a perfect run for marathon training with a good atmosphere. I saw quite a few people doing the run-walk-run regime.Date of review: November 11, 2007
In short: Quite challenging footpaths at times, although mainly flat, the long hill in the last mile was a surprise! Shame the medal has no year marked on it. Other than that, no complaints, really enjoyed it.Date of review: November 11, 2007

I have not noticed this. However, I would say that you can get more flavor by extending the cold rise. I go 1-2 days minimum, with a recent 6 day rise as one of the best I've ever made. 3-4 is typical for me

The Coastal Challenge Shows No Mercy - Page 2Day 4—37.5 kilometers
Howler monkeys made their displeasure clear at being awoken at 4 a.m. A short bus transfer was required today to Coronado. Billed as possibly the hardest stage of the race, runners started with a tough scramble up to 998 meters, where the roller coaster course unfolded with lush green pastures, rutted farmland and rolling valleys.
Today all came down to the final, extremely steep, quad-busting descent thick undergrowth. Dave James once again dominated. Having had two second places and one fourth place, stage Slaughter took stage four, crushing the female competition to leave Hale in second overall and Meyer third.
Slaughter said her only goal for the day had been to finish, not necessarily to win. She described her strategy: walk the climbs, run 80 percent of the flats and "shuffle" the downs. "My quads felt like they were being stabbed by knives; it was so painful." Energized by children who came out along the course to wave and smile at the runners, she pushed hard to the finish at Palmar Sur.
Day 5—47.5 kilometers
It was a remarkable achievement of Carazo and has team to pull off this audacious stage through dense, untouched rainforest. A bus transfer took the participants to the village of Sierpe, where a small boat transferred them across the river.
I took a speedboat down river and retraced in the forest to see the early stages of the race unfold, before running to the finish. Thick clay mud turned to lush forest trail as we ran through mangroves. Lush fields with an occasional farm provided rolling doubletrack. A long stretch of trail finally cleared away to a small village, where I purchased an ice-cold Coke. Wow, I can't tell you how good that Coke tasted.
Just down the road, a water crossing cleared the way for a couple of road miles and the finish on Drake Beach. James was suffering a little; however, he never relinquished any time and after running all day with Dris, gifted him the stage win. Slaughter, on a high from the previous day, once again dominated the stage for the ladies. Hale and Meyer had decided to stick together, finishing side by side for second and third.
With a campsite that backed on the beach, the atmosphere that evening was one of victory. Tomorrow's final stage would be a victory lap; the top three in the male and female categories were already decided. Barring some major disaster, James and Slaughter would take the wins.
Day 6—24 kilometers
Every runner welcomed a 7:30 start for the final stage; I, however, was already sitting in a river in the dark at 6:00 to ensure I could capture the early action. The break of first light in the rainforest is a privilege to see. Snakes moved from one bank of the river to the next, birds flew between trees, hummingbirds between flowers.

A loud splashing noise in the distance signified that either I was in big trouble from approaching wildlife or that runners were heading my way … the splashing noise increased and then I was surrounded as runners went left and right. James led the way, Dris behind. I jumped in to run the remainder of the stage with Slaughter—running through the river, a rocky waterfall, dense rainforest, more farmlands, another river crossing, in and out of coves on the beach, then finally through trees until the finish line was in sight.
It was a most incredible end to six stunning days. Tam Miller, of Vancouver, Canada, summed it up when she said, "I feel whole and complete and I have no unfinished business."
The 10th edition of the race will take place at the end of January 2014. For more information, see www.thecoastalchallenge.co.uk

Press Conference
Scientific Testing of Beethoven's Hair
Press Conference October 17, 2000
Statement by William J. Walsh, Ph.D.
Director of Beethoven Research Project
The Health Research Institute and Pfeiffer Treatment Center
Naperville, Illinois
Note: This statement was provided by Dr. William Walsh. The Ira F. Brilliant Center for Beethoven Studies at San José State University is reproducing this statement for informational purposes only and is not responsible for its content.
Introduction and Summary
Four years ago, I was asked to head a research project to analyze strands of Beethoven's hair to search for clues which might help explain the many mysteries surrounding the great composer's life. The first phase of the work has been completed, and we have found the following:
- High lead concentrations in Beethoven's hair were found in independent analyses by McCrone Research Institute & Argonne National Laboratory. This provides evidence that Beethoven had plumbism (lead poisoning) which may have caused his life-long illnesses, impacted his personality, and possibly contributed to his death
- Distinctive trace-metal patterns associated with genius, irritability, glucose disorders, and malabsorption were not present in the Beethoven samples tested by McCrone Research Institute.
- Absence of detectable mercury levels was reported independently by McCrone Research Institute and Argonne National Laboratory. This supports the consensus of Beethoven Scholars who believe that Beethoven never had syphilis, which was usually treated in the 1820's with mercury compounds.
- DNA analysis by LabCorp Corporation has defined a significant portion of Beethoven's genetic make-up. This information will be available for future research studying musical genius, deafness, etc.
- The absence of drug metabolites indicates that Beethoven avoided opiate pain-killers during his long and painful death. History records that Beethoven continued working on his music until the day he died. This implies that Beethoven decided to keep his mind clear for his music. (Analysis by W. Baumgartner, Psychemedics Corp.).
Beethoven's Symptoms and Plumbism
Beethoven's health was quite normal as a young musical prodigy. However in his early 20's, Beethoven developed chronic disturbing illnesses that plagued him throughout his adult life. His primary complaint was abdominal pain which he referred to as "colic". He saw many doctors in an unsuccessful attempt to end this misery. Abdominal distress is a common symptom of lead poisoning.
Beethoven's personality also transformed during his illness. This friendly and charming young man gradually became irritable, hot-tempered, socially isolated, and suffered from bouts of depression and despair. These are all classic symptoms of depression.
At age 31, Beethoven reported that he was losing his hearing. By age 42 he was nearly completely deaf. There have been a few isolated cases of deafness associated with lead poisoning, but they have been quite rare. The cause of Beethoven's deafness is still a mystery, and a continuing focus of our ongoing research.
Beethoven experienced a prolonged and painful death at his home in Vienna in the year 1827. After developing pneumonia, his abdomen became painful, distended and large amounts of fluid were drained from his kidneys, liver, and other organs. Lead poisoning is associated with kidney failure and liver disease.
Beethoven's Hair
The day after Beethoven's death, a young Jewish musician named Ferdinand Hiller snipped a large lock of the composer's hair as a keepsake. For a century, the lock of hair was a treasured family keepsake. During the Holocaust in Nazi Germany, the lock of hair was given to Kay Fremming, a Danish doctor who was secretly involved in efforts to save hundreds of hunted and frightened Jews. After Fremming's death, his daughter consigned the lock of hair for auction at Sotheby's in London. The successful bidders were four Americans, Ira Brilliant (founder of the Beethoven Center in California), Che Guevara (a medical doctor living in Arizona), Tom Wendel (president of the American Beethoven Society), and fellow society member Caroline Crummey.
The new owners selected the Health Research Institute to perform non-destructive chemical tests and to direct the efforts to derive scientific information from the hair.
Chemical Analysis by McCrone Research Institute
Approximately two years were devoted to searching the worlds of forensics and analytical chemistry to identify laboratories and techniques with the greatest capability for chemical analysis of tiny objects. Every scientist and laboratory that I contacted offered to perform the chemical analysis without charge. Eventually it became clear that the world's greatest capability resided in the McCrone Research Institute in Chicago, headed by the eminent Walter McCrone.
McCrone is best known for his definitive research on Napoleon's hair (proving that he was not deliberately poisoned by arsenic) and on the Shroud of Turin. Earlier this year, McCrone was honored by the American Chemical Society as "Analytical Chemist of the Year 2000".
McCrone volunteered to perform his work-class chemical analysis on Beethoven's hair as a public service. Following Dr. Walsh's recommendation, Dr. Guevara authorized the destructive chemical analysis of two Beethoven hairs by McCrones's group.
Instrumentation for the Beethoven analysis involved (1) scanning electron microscope energy dispersion spectrometry (SEM/EDS) and (2) scanning ion microscope mass spectrometry (SIMS). McCrone's laboratory performed a side-by-side analysis of the two Beethoven hairs along with three hair strands collected from living persons. The primary result was the finding of large amounts of lead in Beethoven's hair, compared to the three control samples.
Chemical Testing at Argonne's Advanced Photon Source (APS)
In 1997, the Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory completed construction of this remarkable facility, the APS, which has chemical analysis capability which is unsurpassed in the world. In September of this year, Argonne scientists Ken Kemner, Derrick Mancini, and Francesco DeCarlo performed non-destructive beam experiments involving side-by-side testing of six Beethoven hairs, a standard hair of known lead composition, and a standard "lead glass" sheet of known lead composition.
The Argonne research team found elevated lead levels in each of the six Beethoven hairs, confirming McCrone's findings.
Discussion of Results
The two hairs analyzed by McCrone and the six studied at Argonne's APS Facility all exhibited unusually high levels of lead. As expected, there was a wide variation in lead concentration from hair to hair, especially along the length of a hair. This reflects the major fluctuations in blood lead levels, as lead is deposited into growing hair.
The average lead concentration measured in the McCrone and Argonne experiments is above 60 ppm (parts-per-million), but there was great variability in t he portions of hair analyzed. We plan to determine the lead concentration more precisely in future testing of additional Beethoven hairs.
The Pfeiffer Treatment Center in Naperville has measured hair and blood lead levels in thousands of patients. A recent study of 6205 patients showed that only 11 patients exhibited hair lead levels above 60 ppm. Many of these patients reported abdominal distress, irritability, and depression.
The Health Research Institute concludes that Beethoven suffered from lead poisoning which probably caused his chronic illnesses, and may have contributed to his death.
Future Work
This investigation is continuing and will contain the following elements:
- Measurement of hair concentrations along the shafts of several hairs (to determine the degree of recent lead exposure)
- Measurement of the morphology and lead distribution within Beethoven hairs (to identify the presence of any surface effects)
- DNA comparisons with other materials reputed to be Beethoven relics (to better establish the authenticity of each material)
- Morphology and chemical studies of Beethoven skull bones (to derive additional information about Beethoven's toxic exposures and biochemistry)
- Continued investigation of the cause of Beethoven's deafness
Beethoven Quote from the Heilgenstadt Testament
"After my death, if Dr. Schmidt is still alive, ask him in my name to discover my disease, and attach this written document to his account of my illness so at least as much as is possible the world may be reconciled to me after my death."
Ludwig van Beethoven
From his "Heiligenstadt Testament," 1802
Summary of Beethoven Research Findings
- High lead concentrations in Beethoven's hair were found in independent analyses by McCrone Research Institute & Argonne National Laboratory. This is evidence that Beethoven had plumbism (lead poisoning) which may have caused his life-long illness, impacted his personality, and possibly contributed to his death.
- Distinctive trace-metal patterns associated with genius, irritability, glucose disorders, and malabsorption were not present in the Beethoven samples tested by McCrone Research Institute.
- Very low (undetectable) mercury levels were reported independently by McCrone Research Institute and Argonne National Laboratory. This provides evidence that Beethoven did not receive medical treatment for syphilis, usually treated in the 1820's with mercury compounds. This supports the consensus of Beethoven scholars who believe that Beethoven never had syphilis.
- DNA analysis has defined a significant portion of Beethoven's genetic make-up. This information will be available for future research studying musical genius, deafness, etc. (Analysis by LabCorp).
- Absence of drug metabolites indicates that Beethoven avoided opiate pain-killers during his long and painful death. History records that Beethoven continued working on his music until the day he died. This implies that Beethoven decided to keep his mind clear for his music. (Analysis by W. Baumgartner, Psychemedics Corp.).
About Lead
What is Lead?
Lead is a metallic element which is very toxic if absorbed in high amounts. Lead has no known health benefits for humans, and is associated with concentration problems, and behavior disorders. Levels below 5 mcg/dl (blood) and 3ppm (hair) are considered to be "safe". Children are especially sensitive to lead, and blood levels exceeding 10 mcg/dl should be reported to the Public Health Service. Elevated levels in blood may indicate recent exposure, whereas hair levels may reflect lead exposure from months or years past.
What are Sources of Lead?
- Drinking water, especially from shallow wells -Lead-acid batteries
- Contaminated soil -Insecticides and herbicides
- Produce grown in lead contaminated soil -Gun firing ranges
- Lead based paints, ceramics, or glassware -Lead-soldered cans
- Lead based hair coloring -Waste incineration
- Welding, brazing, soldering -Industrial use of lead
Note: Persons working with stained glass, ceramics, jewelry, refinished furniture, ammunition, lead-acid batteries, etc., should change clothes before going home, and these clothes should be washed separately.
What are Symptoms of Lead Toxicity?
- Abdominal pain -Nausea -Diarrhea
- Chronic fatigue -Anxiety -Confusion
- Weakness -Vertigo -Tremors
- Hyperactivity -Slowed reflexes -Loss of Appetite
- Irritability and anger -Learned deficits -Retarded growth
Treatment for Lead Exposures:
The first step is to identify the source of lead (if still present) and eliminate additional exposures. Treatment with nutrients such as calcium, zinc, manganese, cysteine, vitamin B-6, vitamin C, and vitamin E can effectively drive the toxic lead from blood and soft tissues (including the brain). However 95% of long-term lead is stored in the bones, and the half-life of skeletal lead is about 22 years. Serious lead poisoning may require many years of treatment to cope with lead diffusing from bone into the blood stream.
About the Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory
The Advanced Photon Source (APS), at Argonne National Laboratory is a national synchrotron-radiation light source research facility. The APS is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences.
Utilizing high-brilliance x-ray beams from the APS, members of the international synchrotron-radiation research community carry out forefront basic and applied research in the fields of materials science; biological science; physics; chemistry; environmental, geophysical, and planetary science; and innovative x-ray instrumentation.
This year, more than 1500 experimenters conducted a total of 1178 experiments at the APS. These scientists represent more than 290 universities and medical schools, 47 industrial firms, and 51 federal and private research institutions from the U.S., Canada, and abroad.
The APS provides an environment in which scientists from different institutions, disciplines, and career stages can work together. Researchers (or "users') come to the APS either as members of Collaborative Access Teams (CATs) or as Independent Investigators (IIs). Collaborative Access Teams comprise large numbers of investigators with common research objectives. These teams are responsible for the design, construction, funding and operation of beamlines designed to take radiation from the APS storage ring and tailor it to meet specific experimental needs. By agreement with the APS, Collaborative Access Teams must allocate 25% of x-ray beam time to IIs, individuals or groups not affiliated with a CAT. Independent Investigator access is provided on the basis of proposals which are approved by each CAT.
University professors and students interact daily with colleagues from industry and national laboratories, exchanging ideas both formally and informally through collaborations, seminars, and impromptu discussions. These symbiotic relationships pay real dividends in enhanced research quality and scientific productivity.

About Dr. William Walsh
William J. Walsh is a scientist with more than 30 years of research experience. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame in 1958, he went on to earn a masters degree at the University of Michigan and a Doctorate in Chemical Engineering from Iowa State University.
Before founding the Health Research Institute in 1982 and, subsequently the Pfeiffer Treatment Center in 1989, Dr. Walsh worked for Atomic Research (Ames, IA); Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (Los Alamos, NM); University of Michigan Research Institute (Ann Arbor, MI); Savannah River hydrogen bomb plant near Aiken, SC; and Argonne National Laboratory (Lemont, IL). Dr. Walsh spent 22 years as a researcher in nuclear fuel processing, liquid metal distillation, and electrochemistry.
Over the past 25 years, Dr. Walsh and colleagues have evaluated hair chemistry data from over 100,000 individuals and developed the world's first hair standard of known composition. Walsh has performed more than 25 forensic studies of hair samples in collaboration with medical examiners, coroners, and police groups. These studies include chemical evaluation of Charles Manson, Henry Lee Lucas, James Hubeity (McDonald's massacre), William Sherrill (Oklahoma post office slayings), and other notorious criminals.
Dr. Walsh's interest in biochemical disorders began as a result of his volunteer work with inmates at the Stateville Penitentiary in Joliet, IL, where he organized the Prisoner Assistance Program that included more than 100 volunteers. He was named "Prison Volunteer of the Year" of Metropolitan Chicago in 1983. This work led Dr. Walsh and other Argonne volunteers in initiate scientific research that indicated a biochemical predisposition to behavior disorders. That research formed the basis of the diagnostic and treatment protocols being used at the Pfeiffer Treatment Center in Naperville, IL. The non-profit Center has provided individualized nutrient therapy to more than 14,000 patients with behavior disorders. ADHD, learning problems, autism, depression and schizophrenia.
Dr. Walsh has authored more than 200 scientific articles and reports and made numerous presentations on his research. He has presented HRI's research findings at the American Psychiatric Association, the U.S. Senate, the Society of Neuroscience, NAMI, and the National Institute of Mental Health. Dr. Walsh presently serves as Chief Scientist of the Health Research Institute and Pfeiffer Treatment Center.

Man arrested in Iron River on assault, drug charges
By NIKKI YOUNK
Staff Writer
FLORENCE, Wis. – A Florence man who was initially accused of various felony counts, including possession of child pornography, felon in possession of a firearm, and receiving and concealing stolen property, has accepted a plea deal that dismisses most of the charges.
Rodney V. Conn, 65, pleaded no contest on Tuesday to two felony counts of felon in possession of a firearm.
He will serve nine months in the Florence County Jail and three years of probation. The sentence will commence on Friday.
Pursuant to the plea deal, special prosecutor Jay Olivares agreed to dismiss nearly a dozen additional felony and misdemeanor charges against Conn.
They included four felony counts of possession of child pornography, two felony counts of felon in possession of a firearm, one felony count of receiving and concealing stolen property, one felony count of possession of explosives for an unlawful purpose, one misdemeanor count of witness intimidation, one misdemeanor count of possession of marijuana, and one misdemeanor count of violation of a restraining order.
During the plea and sentencing hearing Tuesday in Florence County Court, Olivares informed the court that there was insufficient evidence to support the child pornography charges.
"There were photographs that indicated youthful individuals, but no one from the state or sheriff's department could testify that they were under the age of 18 or 21," he explained.
Judge Leon D. Stenz expressed concern that Olivares was dropping the charges without having a doctor examine the photographs. Olivares assured him that he was satisfied with the determinations of law enforcement officials.
Olivares and Conn's attorney Michael Scholke presented a joint recommendation of nine months in jail and three years of probation.
According to the criminal complaint in the case, the charges against Conn stem from a May 24 incident in Florence.
Acting on a tip, deputies from the Florence County Sheriff's Department searched Conn's home for firearms. Since Conn is a convicted felon, he cannot legally own firearms.
The search turned up images of potential child pornography on a laptop computer, four firearms, a lighthouse lens that was allegedly stolen from the Huron Island Lighthouse in Lake Superior sometime in the early 1970s, exploding ammunition, and marijuana.
"Yes, these charges on paper are scary, but Mr. Conn is not a bad person, just a misunderstood person," Scholke told the court.
Scholke claimed that Conn recycles computers from the community and that he never even turned on the laptop that contained the suspected child pornography.
As for the lighthouse lens, Scholke said that Conn found it in pieces at the bottom of Lake Superior while diving. Conn acquired the pieces over a period of two years, he added.
Scholke also said that Conn only had guns because he is a collector.
When given a chance to speak, Conn said that being in jail allowed him to get control of his health and his emotions.
"I'm hoping for a good outcome so I can get on with my life," he said.
Judge Stenz agreed with Scholke that the charges against Conn were not aggravated. However, he was concerned that Conn has a previous felony conviction of burglary from 1994 in Florida.
Ultimately, Judge Stenz decided to go along with the joint recommendation of nine months in jail and three years of probation.

Topic: Very frustrated new Rails user
Can someone please explain to me why this issues occurs? Yes I have googled and seen a million threads about similar problems but not definitive answer why or how it can be fixed. Here is my issue:
Setting up rails for the first time I created a new app, rails new app. At some point I decided I wanted to start over again so deleted the directory and recreated it. Now every time I run the command I get:
$rails new newsletter
Can't initialize a new Rails application within the directory of another, please change to a non-Rails directory first.
This happens in ANY directory I run 'rails new app' I do not understand why this is happening. My understanding is that rails puts everything in the new project name and changes need to be modified from there.
I also feel that I should be able to run
$rails new anything
a hundred times and not have anything to worry about, is this wrong? Can only one project be made at a time or what?
I have tried this solution and it doesnt work, there are NO .bundle files anywhere: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7176 ther-pleas
I have also tried rvm implode and that doesn't help either, I just have to reinstall everything.
The only fix I have had is creating a new user or running the command in a VM, both less then ideal solutions.
I need to get this figured out before I can even get my feet wet
