Requests CLOSED
Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone could be interested in creating a signature for me and possibly a wallpaper (1600x1200) with the same image.
Visible text: I'd like my character's name (Virgo) and, below that, the one of my guild (Blasphemy - Well of Eternity)
Armory link:http://eu.battle.net/wow/it/characte...a/Virgo/simple
Gear set: Priest tier 5, but with Amice of Brilliant Light [shoulders slot] and Cowl of Benevolence [head slot]. No weapons/off-hands.
Helm visible: Yes, please
Your pose: I wish something cool, the choice is up to the artist.
General colour scheme: Something appropriate for a healing priest
Any extras: I'd like to have angel wings and maybe priest-ish runes of light (something in Chakras style), that's to represent my specs (I'm both Discipline and Holy).
If something is not clear please tell me. Thanks in advance to whoever will claim this

EDIT ***** PM'D to someone*** Thanks
Just a friendly bump after a week or so again.
Just really looking for the wallpaper as I stated another time.
I believe I have to log in quickly to my pally and swap my gear as its the wrong xmog on the armory. ( Will do that shortly )
As stated below I know its hard to add certain things in with different things so I am really open to anything. Just looking for a nice background with the characters in it.
Mounts are a + but not required at all. I know you all do awesome work so I know it will be good
thanks again hope this gets picked up

My phone shall be graced by this for many MOONkins
Know this might end up being a bit "much" for a request in terms of complexity , and specifics..but here we go in hopes someone out there might have the time and expertise to bring this piece to life.
Size: No real size limitations. The picture is more for a personal enjoyment than it is to be meant to be placed on a site.
Visible text: Thinking, if possible..the character's name and a few saying if at all possible from different facets of his life. Those being..( Zaeon Lightsworn ) , being his full name, aswell as the quotes "Faith..and duty. Courage..and honor.", which are the four points of his "cross" and the ideals he holds are most important. The second quote and third being personal quotes as a member of the Dawn, and a crusader of the Light. Those being, "We are the light to the darkness", and "We strike with the wrath of the righteous". The final quote would be his family's motto "We are those sworn to the Light."
Logo: None
Armory link/Facial screenshot: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...712_211735.jpg
Gear set: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...äeon/advanced -- Basically paladin T8 ten man version.
Helm visible: No
Your pose: If possible, holding a glowing libram in his left hand that is chained to his left hip, as if reading from it a blessing, which would explain the glow around his body, eyes closed and right hand raised to touch fingers to his forehead in an almost Christian like "making the sign of the cross" sort of way , starting at his forehead, his head slightly down to look as if he was just previously reading from said libram and is now slipping into a "beseeching the Light's blessing" stance.
General colour scheme: Colors..Black and white/gold, black being the majority and the white/gold being that super pale white/gold mix. ..Something of a mix of holy energy's gold and the "pureness" of white to depict a "Light to the darkness" sort of feel that a paladin should be in essence.
Specifics: To better explain the whole libram thing, here is another picture of a paladin having their libram chained to them as I would like my paladin's to be, even with it open in his left hand to be read from. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...Ashbringer.jpg ..Any other specifics are somewhat covered in the pose bit here, the only other real things to mention are that with the picture of my paladin earlier, though it can't be seen, he wields Quel'dalar , and his hair is darker in that screenshot above because of MPQ modding, and would love it if the picture could depict that same darker color. Lastly..the picture doesn't have to be a full body, simply from about mid-thigh and up should more than do..enough to show where the chain of the libram joins to his armor, and the book itself can be just a exact rendered copy of the one in the Ashbringer picture above here.
As for his name and the few quotes given, I'd like them in white is possible, his name being the easiest to read and the largest, while the other three you may choose to do with as you please around the picture..maybe do something in a way that they are smaller in size and slightly scattered in the black background , almost like "whispers" or his thoughts in prayer.

Helm visible: Without Helm
Your pose: -
General colour scheme: It would be nice when you take a warm colour like Pink, Purple, Red, Orange and maybe with shining or something like this

Banner 1 (Recruitment Banner):
Size: 750x200
Visible text: Now Recruiting

Nice greets from Allishia

TacTican here. I have a very unusual request - I'm not asking for a brand new signature but rather some filesize optimization on one that I made myself.
Link to .pspimage file. Image below
It's something I whipped up in Paint Shop Pro and I'm planning on using it on MMO until AGDQ 2013 is over. I can't manage to squeeze it down below 50kb, however - the best that Paint Shop Pro does is reduce it to around 71kb or so. Would some kind soul please reduce it for me? (Note the transparencies; the contours and holes in the signature are deliberately transparent.)
Visible text: My nick name under guild name
Armory link/Facial screen shot:
Gear set: T9,5
Helm visible: yes
Your pose: ready 1H
General colour scheme: black/ neon blue / dark blue
Any extras: WOTLK theme
Size: 375px x 125px
and avatar 200x200px if its not a problem.

Real-world MPG: cheapest cars that beat 45mpg
- We name the new cars that are cheapest to run
- Seven cars cost less than £10k and beat 45mpg
- Results indicate real-world fuel economy
Need a valuation?
Obtain a FREE used car valuation for any vehicle.
What Car?'s technicians drive new cars every week to capture our True MPG fuel economy data. Unlike official Government figures generated by a laboratory test, the numbers we publish are gained from real-world conditions.
This week we're looking at the most economical cheap cars that we've tested so far, including the new Hyundai i10 - our 2014 City Car of the Year. If you're looking to spend less than £10,000 on a car that won't cost a fortune to fuel, then these seven models are worth considering. All of them beat 45mpg in our test.
1. Dacia Sandero 1.5 dCi (from £8595) – official 74.3mpg: True MPG 61.7mpg
The Sandero range starts at an astonishly low £5995, although this diesel will set you back another £2600. Of course, such a low price demands compromises, but if you can stomach the basic level of refinement and comfort, this economical small family car is incredible value for money.
2. Toyota Aygo 1.0 VVT-i (from £8595) – official 65.7mpg: True MPG 57.0mpg
The Aygo has a punchy engine, cute looks and feels solidly built despite the cheap cabin trim. However, the ride and refinement are below par and it has little standard kit. This is one of the most fuel-efficient small cars, though, and it comes with a reassuring five-year warranty.
3. Peugeot 107 1.0 (from £8095) – official 65.7mpg: True MPG 52.3mpg
The 107 is the same car underneath as the Aygo, but our True MPG test suggests it's not quite as efficient. The engines feels nippy in town and can hold its own on faster roads, although like the Toyota, the ride is rather firm. A three-door model in Active trim is at least a smart, solid city runabout.
4. Skoda Citigo 1.0 60 (from £7990) – official 68.1mpg: True MPG 49.1mpg
The Citigo is one of the best city cars around – it's great to drive, well built and cheap to buy and run. Granted, it's not as classy as the Volkswagen Up, but a five-door Greentech SE model is well equipped, emits 95g/km of CO2 and costs less than £10,000. That's a bargain in our book.
5. Volkswagen Up 1.0 60 (from £8265) – official 62.8mpg: True MPG 48.6mpg
The Up was our 2013 City car of the Year. It's a funky-looking runabout that's also economical, spacious and good to drive. This 59bhp engine can struggle on the motorway, but it's fine around town. You can get a well-equipped, three-door Move Up model - plus VW's portable sat-nav from the options list - and stay within the £10,000 budget.
6. Kia Rio 1.25 (from £9995) – official 56.5mpg: True MPG 46.4mpg
The Rio feels impressively grown up for a supermini, thanks to its roomy, stylish interior. The ride, refinement and handling all leave a lot to be desired, but given the space and equipment on offer, plus Kia's seven-year warranty, it's good value for money and well worth considering.
- Hyundai i10 1.0 (from £8345) – official 60.1mpg: True MPG 45.6mpg
The new i10 only just beats 45mpg in our real-world test, but it performs so well in other areas that we named it our 2014 City Car of the Year. Its ride, handling and compact size make it a fine urban runabout, while it's also remarkably refined compared to all of its rivals. There's room for four six-footers inside, a decent-sized boot, six airbags and Hyundai's five-year warranty. The i10 is simply outstanding value for money.
We add new models to our True MPG database every week. Visit whatcar.com/truempg to see the full range of cars we've tested, and find out what you really can expect to achieve on UK roads.

What size rug do I need?Size does matter in selecting the right rug. Below are some suggestions -- not rules!!!
FoyerThe foyer might be the most aesthetically important space in your house. It's the entrance -- the first impression people see upon entering your home. A good quality oriental rug can make a statement.
Depending on the size, shape and furniture in your foyer, you can go a couple of different ways. It's hard to generalize because foyers can come in so many different layouts. Some basic options are:
- Putting a rectangular rug, either horizontally or vertically, in the largest, squarish section of the foyer.
- Putting runners in longer, narrower sections.
- Some combination of the above
But this is all highly subjective and dependant on the specifics of your foyer.
Here are some additional foyer tips:
- If you have furniture against the wall, a rug lying in front of the furniture looks nice.
- If you have a table in the center of the foyer a rug looks great under it
- If you have a very long hall, break it up with runners and scatter rugs
- Don't feel obligated to use round or oblong rugs with round tables -- they look good with rectangular rugs.
- Keep some floor showing between the rugs and the walls. For smaller foyers, allow at least 4-6 inches; for larger rooms, 1-2 feet.
If you're really confused, send me a diagram! We're happy to offer suggestions on how to lay out your rugs.
Dining RoomA dining room is the easiest room to fit a rug. The most important rule is that you want your rug to fit under the table and accommodate all the chairs when people are sitting down. And you want at least a 1 or 2 foot perimeter between the rug and the walls. That's basically it!
Some other dining room tips:
- If you have leaves for your table, but only use them occasionally, then base the size of the rug on the table without the leaves.
- Furniture in the room can look good either on the rug or off of it. It's a matter of preference.
- An all-over pattern -- that is, a rug without a center medallion -- works best for dining rooms.
Living RoomThe are many options for living room rug layout, so it's harder to give specific suggestions. For many living rooms, a good option is to put one large rug roughly centered in the room. How much floor you want you show around it is a matter of taste. Furniture can either be on, partially on, or completely off of the rug. For very large rooms, you can break it up by using two or more rugs.
It really depends on furniture placement and taste. Again, if you'd like some options, send us a diagram and we can help you select the perfect size.
BedroomsThere are a couple of standard options for bedrooms:
- If the room is large enough, a 9x12 or 10x14 rug can go under the bed horizontally. This fills up the room without needing rugs on either side of the bed.
- For smaller bedrooms, an accent piece at the foot of the bed or a small scatter rug beside the bed can complete the room.
For any bedroom, softer palette rugs tend to work better.

text: Being too long for 2 on 1 CD, we have issued the Sniff 'n'The Tears albums as singles at mid-price. Always a class act, this proved to be their last outing for Chiswick Records in 1982. The self-produced album turned up some of Paul Roberts best songs, including their last stab at the charts, "Hungry Eyes". Maybe a little understated for Top Of The Pops in '82, nonetheless this material stands the test of time, in a way that many of its contemporaries do not. From the sophisticated packaging, featuring another of lead singer Paul Robert's stunning paintings, through to the fine playing of some of London's most seasoned musicians and the excellent songwriting, this album is quality from top to bottom.

By Brendan Conway
The moment when artificial intelligence reaches a state of greater-than-human capabilities, ushering in a new, barely unfathomable era of civilization, is called the "Singularity."
Hedge funds appear to be facing their own singularity in the form of the S&P 500. They're slowly but surely becoming one with the large-cap stock index. Maybe the better analogy is from "Star Trek," when the crew from the Starship Enterprise is told, "We are the Borg. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile."
As the attached chart from strategist Adam Parker of Morgan Stanley shows, equity-oriented hedge funds' rolling
560-month correlation with the large-stock index has grown and grown over the last two decades. There remains some non-correlation. But not much. It's notably less than what existed a few decades back.
The best theory for why this has happened: Structural and cultural changes reducing the number of unique sources of returns in the stock market. These changes include the elimination of what effectively was legalized insider trading via Regulation FD, to the rise of MSCI Barra-style quantitative investing, to Sarbanes Oxley, whose onerous corporate reporting requirements cut back on the amount of opaque financial reports. The result: Fewer smallish, tough-to-judge IPOs, fewer "grey" sources of information, and overall, less of an edge for diligent and aggressive fund managers.
Or you could simply note that the hedge-fund industry is bloated. Hedge funds are in many ways the victims of their own success, having ballooned from roughly $100 billion in assets in the early 1990s to $2.5 trillion today. You could argue there are simply too many of them with too much money chasing too few unique opportunities.
No, the S&P 500 isn't the proper benchmark for most hedge-fund strategies. Funds cordon themselves into niches which in theory offer superior risk-adjusted returns. But even by this standard things are worsening. Morgan Stanley's Parker adjusted the hedge-fund group for size, quality and style investing, the three big recognized investing "factors." Result: A steady decrease in hedge funds' "alpha."
In fact, at some point during 2011-12, the estimate of hedge-fund excess return after adjusting for factors slips into negative territory for the first time since the start of the data in 1990, probably for the first time ever. Where it remains today. All of which is worth keeping in mind if you're paying 2-and-20 or 1-and-15 instead of the "dumb beta" iShares Core S&P 500 (IVV) or Vanguard S&P 500 index fund (VFIAX).
The industry turned in a strong enough January, at least: eVestment reports Friday morning that aggregate hedge-fund performance for the month was a negative 0.56%, versus the 3.5% drop in the S&P 500. Directionally oriented equity hedge funds' outperformance versus the S&P 500 was the largest in more than two years.

As much as we would often like to wake up after 10am, and casually enjoy a cup of coffee and English muffin with a spread of butter and honey, our livelihoods are what allow us to live in the beautiful sprawls of acres we call home.
Learn from the best on what it takes to run a successful business. After all, every farm owner is an entrepreneur just like someone running a start up catering service, software company, or handyman service. To be successful you need to be organized, carefully document your profits and losses, work hard, and have a team of family members or employees behind you.
The word farm brings up a myriad of different emotions to people across the country. Ask one person and to them it will only recall images of lonely looking silos they drive past on a camping trip away from the city. To the rest of us, it will illuminate images of a home, family dinners, spring afternoons in the garden, a deadline oriented business, calloused hands, and so much more.
Farms are surrounded by so much natural beauty. The key to a picture worthy home is making your farmhouse look like a natural extension of the environment it rests in. Here you will find ideas for adorning your house with stylish entry doors, decorations, furniture and more to make your home beautiful and functional in a rural landscape.

Via WND: - Stunner! Supremes to give eligibility case another look - Challenge to Obama getting 2nd conference before court - Bob Unruh -
The court has confirmed that it has distributed a petition for rehearing in the case brought by attorney John Hemenway on behalf of retired Col. Gregory Hollister and it will be the subject of a conference on March 4.
It was in January that the court denied, without comment, a request for a hearing on the arguments. But the attorney at the time had submitted a motion for Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, who were given their jobs by Obama, to recuse.
Should Obama ultimately be shown to have been ineligible for the office, his actions, including his appointments, at least would be open to challenge and question.
At the time, the Supreme Court acknowledged the "motion for recusal" but it changed it on official docketing pages to a "request." And it reportedly failed to respond to the motion.
Hemenway then submitted a request for a rehearing, pointing out that the situation appeared to be violating the rules of the U.S. Supreme Court.
He also argued that if court members continue to "avoid" the dispute they effectively will "destroy the constitutional rule of law basis of our legal system."
Hemenway wrote the, "We have not exaggerated in presenting the question of the constitutional rule of law being at stake in this matter," Hemenway wrote in a petition for rehearing before the high court. "A man has successfully run for the office of president and has done so, it appears, with an awareness that he is not eligible under the constitutional requirement for a person to be president.
"Despite a vigorous campaign that he has conducted to make 'unthinkable' the very idea of raising the issue of his eligibility under the Constitution to 'be' president the issue has not gone away," Hemenway said.
"Instead it has steadily grown in the awareness of the public. Should we be surprised that he shows no respect for the constitutional rule of law? What else would we expect?" he wrote.
The U.S. Supreme Court today did not respond to WND questions today about whether the two justices would participate in the conference, and there was no response to WND's request that questions be forwarded to the justices themselves about their plans. ...Continued here; http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=264897
CASE BACKGROUND: This is

Cycle of Discernment at Free Republic laid out the expensive details;
(Robert Bauer-married to former Obama WH Communications Director Anita Dunn, who professed that Mao Tse-Tung was a personal hero--was appointed last year as White Counsel by Obama and had been the lead atty representing Obama in blocking release of any Obama documents).
The following information was compiled from the official Federal Elections Commission website for disbursements from the Obama campaign to Robert Bauer's law firm of Perkins Coie, which represents Obama in various eligibility suits.
The FEC links follow the entries.

UPDATE 1: Citizen Wells compiled his up to date research on the Obama FEC filings here.
I wonder why the current Perkins Coie attorney Marc Elias doesn't have this high-profile case added to his bio; http://www.perkinscoie.com/melias
1. Did the district court follow the rule that a complaint should not be dismissed under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure "unless it appears beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim which would entitle him to relief?"
2. Did the District Court examine the complaint of the plaintiff/petitioner Hollister as required by the decisions of this and every other federal court to see if it alleged facts to support its claims?
3. Did the district court examine the words "or being under any obligation written or unwritten in the amount of $500 or more..." as set out disjunctively at the end of 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1335(a) as they pertain to the plaintiff/petitioner Hollister as a member of the Individual Ready Reserve?
4. Did the district court violate the clear language standard for statutory interpretation?
5. Did the district court, as affirmed by the appellate court, examine and apply the de facto officer doctrine as applied?
6. Did the district court, as affirmed by the appellate court ignore the Nuremburg principle IV as amplified by the Statute of Rome and improperly fail to analyze the ability of the defendant Obama to give a lawful order under that principal under the allegations of the complaint?
7. By refusing to consider the issue of the defendant Obama not being a "natural born citizen" as set out in Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution did the district court violate its obligation to consider the issues raised by the complaint?
8. Did the district court, as affirmed by the appellate court, take into account the equitable nature of Interpleader when there is no remedy at law?
9. In failing to consider and ignoring the law set out in 1 through 8 above, and instead relying upon extrajudicial criteria such as an assertion that: "The issue of the President's citizenship was raised, vetted, blogged, texted, twittered, twittered, and otherwise massaged by America's vigilant citizenry during Mr. Obama's two–year–campaign for the presidency,…" combined with an attack on the petitioner plaintiff because he "wants it resolved by a court," and that one of the counsel involved in signing the pleadings for the petitioner/plaintiff, a well known Pennsylvania Democrat politician and prominent Hillary Clinton supporter in that state during the primaries, who was attacked by the district court as an "agent provocateur" and also with sarcastic attacks on the plaintiff/petitioner Hollister, did the district court not engage in such obvious political bias based upon extrajudicial factors as to render its opinion void?
10. Did the district court seek to deny petitioner Hollister his constitutional right of access to the courts.
11. Did the U. S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit adopt that bias so as to render its affirmation of the district court also void?
12. Did the Court of Appeals, in so adopting the bias of the district court, cite this Court's opinion in Liteky v. United States, 510 U.S. 540 (1994) for the opposite of what it holds in an attempt to rationalize its adoption of the bias?
13. Did the Court of Appeals erroneously apply the case law, including its own, in holding that the petitioner/plaintiff and petitioner/counsel could not invoke 28 U.S.C. § 455 at the appellate level?
14. Did the evident bias engaged in below lead to a decision which ignored the law as set out above and as a result place the respondent/defendant Obama above that law and the rule of law in this country generally and threaten the constitutional basis and very existence of our rule of law?
15. Did the courts below not completely ignore the decisions of this court and the clear language of Rule 15 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure concerning amendments so as to compound its biased elevation of the defendant Obama above the rule of constitutional law?
6. Did the courts below fail to analyze and apply the Bivens doctrine as part of placing the defendant Obama above the rule of law in destruction of the Constitution as the basis of that rule of law?
17. In so placing the defendant Obama above the rule of law and failing to analyze the claims of the complaint and the facts it alleged, did the court of appeals below err in not considering relevant and take judicial notice of the Hawaiian territorial statutes in effect in 1961 and the other matters which the petitioners Hollister and Hemenway sought judicial notice on?
18. Did the courts below create a constitutional rule of law crisis in this country by refusing to consider the intent of the founders in placing the phrase "natural born citizen" in the Constitution as an eligibility requirement for a person to be President?
19. Did the appellate court seek to prevent the public from noticing the harm it was doing to the constitutional rule of law in this country by refusing to publish its opinion on a matter which addressed the very legitimacy of the nation's Commander–in–Chief?
20. Did the district court, as affirmed, properly assess a Rule 11 sanction against the petitioner/counsel Hemenway in light of the case law of this Court, particularly in the 19th Century and the relevant discourse evidencing the framers' intent at the time of the founding?
(b) PARTIES: CORPORATIONS
The parties are: The petitioner Col. Gregory S. Hollister, who was the plaintiff in the district court, the petitioner John D. Hemenway, who was sanctioned in the district court under Rule 11 for bringing suit, and the defendants in their capacities as set out in the caption. There are two defendants: the first is the respondent Barry Soetoro a/k/a Barack H. Obama, who is an interpleader and Bivens defendant and Joseph R. Biden, Jr., who is also an interpleader and Bivens defendant. There are no corporations involved so as to require disclosure. -snip-

UPDATE 3: WND; Eligibility challenger wants Obama Supremes excluded - 'There is perception judicial appointments have been made with expectation of favors' -At Source.
Previous report here and partially posted below including the previous filings in Hollister v Soetoro...
Via WND: Supremes challenged to put Constitution above Twitter - Case questioning eligibility says facts don't support Obama story - Bob Unruh
The U.S. Supreme Court is being asked to decide whether the Constitution will trump Twitter on issues of national importance, including the eligibility of a president, which could determine the very future of the American form of government.
The request is being made in a petition for writ of certiori, or a request for the Supreme Court to review the decision of a lower appellate court, in a case brought on behalf of Col. Gregory S. Hollister, a retired Air Force officer.
He is among the many who have brought court challenges to Obama's tenure in the Oval Office based on doubts about whether Obama qualifies for the position under the U.S. Constitution's demand that presidents be a "natural born citizen," a qualification not imposed on other many other federal officers.
The pleadings submitted to the court, compiled by longtime attorney John D. Hemenway, cite the incredible importance of the claims that Obama, in fact, failed to qualify for the office.
"If proven true, those allegations mean that every command by the respondent Obama and indeed every appointment by respondent Obama, including the appointment of members [Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor] of this and every other court, may be only de facto but not de jure [by right of law]," states the pleading.
"Further, his signature on every law passed while he occupies the Oval Office is not valid if he is not constitutionally eligible to occupy that office de jure," it continued.
"Thus, it is not hyperbole to state that the entire rule of law based on the Constitution is at issue. Moreover, it would indicate that the respondent Obama ran for the office of president knowing that his eligibility was at the very least in question," it continued.
The case made headlines at the district court level because of the ruling from District Judge James Robertson of Washington.
Besides the sarcasm involved, the pleading states, the very evidence pertinent to the dispute at issues was ignored.
The pleading outlines that information, which challenges Obama's claim to eligibility and his campaign's citation of a computer-generated Certification of Live Birth from the state of Hawaii, a document also made available to those not necessarily born in the state, as proof of Obama's eligibility.
It suggests there are "sufficient allegations" that Obama was not born inside the United States, and outlines the law and regulations in force at the time of Obama's birth, in 1961.
"At the time of the birth of the respondent Obama in 1961 as alleged, Congress had … the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952. Under the applicable provision of that act … for the respondent Obama to have been a naturalized citizen of the United States at birth, were he born of one U.S. citizen parent and one alien parent, as he has alleged throughout his political career he was, his mother would have had to have been continuously resident in the United States for a period of 10 years preceding the date of his birth and, most importantly, she would have had to have resided continuously for five years preceding his birth in the United State after she had turned 14 years old. Since she was only 18 when Obama was born, this condition was clearly not fulfilled," the arguments said.
It also raised the suggestion that there are sound arguments to the effect that a "natural born citizen" is someone born to two citizen parents, and Obama himself has documented that his father never was a citizen of the U.S.
The fact that the evidence never was reviewed and the judge based a "biased" decision on "a completely extrajudicial factor" [twittering], prevented Hollister from having the constitutional rule of law applied, the petition states. .
"A further example of this bias based on extrajudicial factors by the district court was its observation that a lawyer associated with the initiation of petitioner Hollister's case, a prominent Democrat in Pennsylvania who backed Hillary Clinton in her successful primary there against respondent Obama, though never admitted in the case, was 'probably' the 'real plaintiff' in the case and that he and another lawyer who signed filings but was also never admitted … were 'agents provocateur' whose efforts to raise the issue of the respondent Obama's constitutional eligibility in lawsuits were a crusade in which the petitioner Hollister was a dupe," the petition says.
The questions suggested by the petition are weighty:
- "Did the district court examine the complaint, as required by the decisions of this and every other federal court, to see if it alleged facts to support its claims?"
- "By refusing to consider the issue of defendant Obama not being a 'natural born citizen' as set out in Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution, did the district court violate its obligations to consider the issues raised by the complaint?"
- "In … relying on extrajudicial criteria such as an assertion that 'the issue of the president's citizenship was raised, vetted, blogged, texted, twittered and otherwise massaged by America's vigilant citizenry during Mr. Obama's two-year-campaign for the presidency' combined with an attack on petitioner … did the district court not engage in such obvious political bias and upon extrajudicial factors as to render its opinion void?"
- "Did the … bias engaged in lead to a decision which ignored the law as set out above and as a result place the respondent-defendant Obama above that law and the rule of law in this country generally and threaten the constitutional basis and very existence of our rule of law?"
- "Did the courts below not completely ignore the decisions of this court and the clear language of Rule 15 of the federal Rules of Civil Procedure concerning amendments so as to compound its biased elevation of the defendant Obama above the rule of constitutional law?"

Cute Wedge
"I've never had wedges like this before andI'm so glad I got these! I bought two pair. One 9, and one 9.5. I returned the 9.5 because they were too big, and that is my normal shoe size. But the 9's fit perfectly. I got the green print with floral pattern on them and they are adoreable. These are going to be perfect for spring! The straps are adjustable, so dont be afraid to downsize."

....for same reasons the non-believers would rule the "SANTA CLAUS" forum here...
thanks for the sig like2god
Also why is it not possible to believe that evoulution is something God intended? I mean if you believe in God why would it not cross your mind in your argument that God is responsible for allowing the evolution of species? I really think it should be a non issue in the argument to prove whether or not God exists because it can be argued for the favor of either side.
Good old fashion incest, when the daughter does it with the brother and the daughter does it with the father and the son with the mother and then they do it over again. Gay marriage is harmless compare to that crap.
So, either Adam was diddling the daughters, or Eve was banging her sons. Or the daughters and sons frogged each other. Or possibly a combination of all the above. What kinky little children of God. That whole Adam living for 930 years things is also pretty lulsy. Still probably makes more sense to Waldorf than evolution though

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
Last week, the Emery High volleyball team lost big to North Sanpete and Juan Diego. At Mt. Pleasant, Emery lost 25-19, 25-18 and 25-14. At home against the Soaring Eagles, Emery lost 25-14, 25-10 and 25-14. It was not a good week for the team.
Head Coach Kris Bell, "The girls recognize that they are not playing well. Before the region season started they were playing awesome but now, well right now, they are not. Maybe they are trying too hard. The trouble in losing the games that we have is not believing in ourselves. Those other teams have nothing on us, the girls just believe that they are better and they are not. We have to believe in ourselves."
At North Sanpete, Emery was in the first game, tied at 14-14 but then it fell apart. At home against Juan Diego, Emery was in the first game at 7-9 and then it went to 9-17 as they made mistake after mistake. They were in the third game at 9-10 before it went to 10-16.
As a fan watching the Juan Diego game, you just wondered why so many serves were no good. Time after time they were long or in the net or out of bounds. Coach Bell again, "I cannot believe that we just served like we did. We practice all the time and they have been quite good this season."
Emery now will host Salem Hills this Tuesday night and Delta this Thursday night as they try to right the ship. Coach Bell said, "We are better than we just have played. We have to relax and just play."

Not flattering
"I read reviews that said these shoes run a little short, so I ordered a 7.5. Length-wise they were fine but I didn't find the sandal to be flattering at all. I missed that it wraps around the big toe instead of being more like a thong sandal and it just didn't look good on me. Also the bottoms are very slippery on hard surfaces. I returned this shoe and exchanged for something else."

Runs a little short.
"I ordered these shoes about a week ago in the burgundy color and I loved them! They are absolutely beautiful. The only negative thing I have to say though is that they run a bit short. I am originally a size 6 1/2 but if I could go back in time, I think I would order a size 7."

Ehh...just ok
"These are pretty cute. But they do run a bit small as everyone is saying. Also, they seem a bit slippery on the bottom. I think they'll be cute with shorts or dresses, but they look funny with jeans. I'll keep them because they'll probably match with a lot of stuff...but don't buy them if you're on the fence. There are tons of other sandals much cuter!"

It may not be your idea of a good time, but the Emery County scouts endured the weather and held their annual Klondike winter camp at Joe's Valley.
They learned the basics of winter camping and survival skills. They learned to build fires. The scouts tried ice fishing and cross country skiing as well as a snow shoeing activity where they tested their skills in walking across the snowy landscape in show shoes.
It may have been cold and snowy, but it didn't dampen the spirits of the scouters.

Skip to comments.Nashua, NH Chick-Fil-A To Sponsor NH Pride Fest [barf]
Posted on 08/01/2012 11:26:47 AM PDT by kevcol
NASHUA, NH (CBS) A Nashua Chick-Fil-A restaurant will be sponsoring New Hampshire Pride Fest.
Ryan Manseau, the senior director of Pride Fest, told WBZ-TV he was handing out fliers at the Pheasant Lane Mall recently to promote his event and noticed a man who appeared to be a Chick-Fil-A manager holding one.
Manseau said he approached the man, bracing for a verbal confrontation. He turned out to be the franchise operator, Anthony Piccola, who agreed to help sponsor the event and to serve Chick-Fil-A sandwiches there.
(Excerpt) Read more at boston.cbslocal.com ...
What a surprise. Not.
I wonder what the consequences for his franchise might be. (If any)
I hope Mr. Cathy pulls his franchaise.
Tony will probably be marching in that pervert parade, too.
Well, as they say one bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch. He just happened to buy a CFA franchise, which was unfortunate. Does not undo the amazing numbers we are seeing today in support of Dan Cathy and for first amendment and traditional marriage rights.
Talk about missing the signals...
"I told you to go right in the huddle dumb ass."
Ahhh! The "news" media have found their story for the day on CFA. I'm sure they will run with this instead of the packed CFA's today!
So the homos are going to eat the hate sandwiches now.
You're right about that...NH media will be all over this...how the NH franchise was the ONLY one in America that stood up for 'human rights', blah, blah, blah...
(There's always one loser in every crowd.)
Someone should be out front with a sign that reads "homosexual parade sponsor", so the good people will turn away from this one. This restaurant don't deserve the family business. Let the homos take care of it.
I am so glad that I didn't waste my time to drive over to Nashua today to give this place my patronage today..I'll wait until I am down South to hit a CFA..
It figures that if 1% of the population is queer; there was going to going to be a queer 'Chick-fil-A in there somewhere...
Looks like this guy's getting some more press:
"Chick-fil-A store breaks with founder to sponsor LGBT Pride"
More than 100 people by some estimates have lined up at the Chick-fil-A restaurant inside the Pheasant Lane Mall Wednesday in response to former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Baptist minister, declaration that Aug. 1 be national Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day. That followed the comments of Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy condemning gay marriage. But local franchise owner Piccola doesnt see things that way. In fact, hes helping to sponsor a gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgender pride festival held later this month.
Too bad.
I was planning on going there tonight in support of CFA day.
I won't be going, now.
And if CFA doesn't pull this jerk's franchise, I will be adding CFA to the list with JC Penney and Target on it.
His non-action will highlight the hypocrisy of the fascist left and their enforcement of group think.
This fruity franchise can sink or swim on its own, but he shouldn't come looking to the parent company for any support if his business struggles.
Yeah. People need to get there asap with signs to alert people. Innocent people will feel terrible if they find out later they supported the homosexuals. Some one needs to tell them before they spend any money there.
There are going to be a WHOLE LOT of angry folks once they learn that a portion of the money they spent there today is going to support a pervert parade (instead of supporting a pro-family restaurant). He may be out of business pretty soon, I hope.
This is the guy that supplied the Howie Carr Show with Chick-Fil-A sandwiches on Monday. Looks like he's playing both sides of the fence.
I am sure the Free State liberaltarians will flock there on Friday
Slimy doesn't cover it...what a dirtbag. Uses the money from supporters of traditional marriage and turns it over to the sodomites. Scum.
Someone should point this out to Howie...this guy didn't have to sponsor the queer pride event; he chose to do so.
I just entered a comment about this on the Chick-Fil-A web site.
Told them I was going to tell all my friends and family to be sure that the Chick-Fil-A franchise shares the vision of its founder before patronizing it.
Excellent advice. Glad Nashua is too far away, or I might have made a bad mistake.
"Manseau said he approached the man, bracing for a verbal confrontation."
Oh yeah, like the franchise owner MUST hold the same beliefs as the owner.
Isn't boycotting this guy just like the left boycotting CFA?
Groupthink is bad no matter which side you are on.
ROTFL! Oh this is PERFECT! What are the homosexuals going to do, REFUSE to eat the donated Chick Fil A? Now wouldn't that be an intolerant act against a business that is offering to help out with their gathering? Who would be the hater in that situation?
"this guy didnt have to sponsor the queer pride event; he chose to do so."
He's going to make the "gay pride people" show how tolerant they REALLY are, it's not necessarily a bad thing, what he's doing.
They are going to have to either protest loudly about CFA and how bigoted they are, after this guy volunteered, or eat the sandwiches that some lefty was hoping would kill all the conservatives with trans fats.
Would you give a restaurant your business if they had a banner out front which read, "5% off all proceeds this month will go towards supporting the gay pride festival"?
Assuming "no",
What if there was no banner or advertising about it, but you found out the restaurant was in fact allocating a percentage of sales to the gay pride festival. Would you give them your business?
Assuming "no",
Do you think like-minded family, friends or coworkers who might on occassion visit the business might appreciate if you mentioned to them that a percentage of their spending there was supporting the gay pride parade? so that they were not unwittingly also partly supporting the gay pride parade?
Fund the lavender mafia if you like. It's your choice.
As for me, I will continue to boycott Miller Lite who sponsored a gay orgy for decades, sponsored a sado-maso parody of the Last Supper, et al.
And the Left and corporate suits were upset over this principled boycott.
I guess that sounds reasonable. This is why the homos are urging a national boycott, they found out that a portion of the corporate cash supports traditional marriage organizations and they don't want a part of that. Same issue here.
I would support the Nashua CFA on any other days just to support the national company,but would steer clear on Gay Chicken Days. Um pride, sorry.
...unless it's our side
That guy's definitely not gay, he's got a happy wife and all the women in the neighborhood want him.
After discussing this a little, I don't think this is mindless groupthink, it's a matter of who you wish to fund.
Some of the lefty response is just that, jumponthebandwagon groupthink, but being aware of who you support and who you don't is a bit more intellectual.
I don't know the franchisee's motivations, could be he's actually supporting gay pride, otoh he could be making a more subtle move in giving the gays a complex problem to solve, boycott or accept support?
Actually, yes. I used to work for a CFA. The franchise owners are very carefully screened and groomed. I'm completely shocked.
I really don't know.
According to the story, this franchise owner is offering to provide CATERING to an event that will be held elsewhere, NOT AT HIS RESTAURANT.
And Mr. Cathy never said anything about not serving homosexuals in his restaurant, or elsewhere. THAT is the mistake made by too many in this whole kerfuffle. Mr. Cathy will gladly serve anyone who comes into his restaurants. Some folks think that Chick-Fil-A hates homosexuals and wants them all killed (THAT was a quote from some idiot in the comments section of a TV station that aired a story on one of the local Chick Fil A yesterday). This franchise owner will be dispelling that myth.
"This franchise owner will be dispelling that myth. "
I agree, let's see how his plays out. The danger when playing with Alinskyites is that they can take advantage of anything. What if he caters the event, and 150 gays all call in sick because they claim they got salmonella? hat would make huge news since any cluster of salmonella makes the news. The the spin begins.
That kind of claim would be investigated, and easily refuted with science, and it being a huge story, can be shot down easily. Remember, THEY don't own the news anymore, so if they tried that, when they fail, they WILL damage their own cause, and bring sympathy to the franchise owner, who WAS trying to do the right thing.
Optimistically, I hope you are correct. On the other hand many people believe in Global Warming.
When is the event he's catering? We'll see what actually happens soon.
You are right, the progs don't have total control of the news anymore!
It says this CFA owner is going to help SPONSOR the gay pride event as well as cater. As far as I can tell, there was never an assumption the freak show would be held in the restaurant.
Of course, I wouldn't put it past the "senior director of Pride Fest" to lie about Mr. Piccola's sponsorship commitment. It's quite possible his only involvement was to serve food and the gay guy embellished a bit.

I was watching some suze orman videos (lol) and apparently we are living in an era with the lowest income tax rates ever. So, that combined with the huge national debt, it only seems logical that tax rates will go up in the future. Thus, it would be prudent to take advantage of the "low" tax rates and choose to invest post-tax dollars into a ROTH 401K as opposed to a traditional one, in case the tax rates are much higher when I'm 65. Am I missing something here? I also have a ROTH IRA if that matters.

By COREY BLUEMELStaff writer
Gabriel Sermon found Emery County online. As a result of his web surfing, he and his family are now residents of Castle Dale. Sermon is the newest physician's assistant at Emery Medical Center.
When Sermon finished his education at the University of Utah, he was a physical therapist. A friend talked him into continuing on with his education and becoming a physicians assistant. He went on to Towson University in Maryland and did just that.
Gabriel and his wife Sally, were both raised in American Fork and returned there to work in that community. He began working as a part time PA while also working another job to support his growing family. He and Sally have five children ranging in age from 8 years to 2 1/2 weeks.
Gabriel continued to work the part time PA position while wishing he could move into full time. He found a full time position being advertised at Emery Medical Center. He applied and some time later was called for an interview.
Dr. Otto Dickman from Emery Medical Center interviewed Gabriel for the full time urgent care position and was he hired and began working there in late October of 2008. Gabriel began his search for housing for his family and soon purchased a home within walking distance of the clinic and moved his family here in mid November.
Sally, only a month from delivering the family's fifth child, moved into the home on Center Street in Castle Dale. In mid December, she traveled back to Utah County where her obstetrician had scheduled the birth of Ryker who is now 2 1/2 weeks old. Ryker joined the Sermon children, Parker, 8, Chloe, 7, Kaydee, 4, and Peyton, 16 months in the new home in Castle Dale.
Gabriel is an avid mountain biker and is anxious and excited to explore Emery County. "Our family loves to do outdoor things such as camping," he said. "We are all anxious to check out all that's available in Emery County. This will be a great experience for all of us."
Gabriel's position at Emery Medical Center is a newly created position due to the volume of patient care being rendered there. "My family has been here just over a month and we just love it. Utah County has gotten too busy. It's great here," said Gabriel.

Inspired by my recent success with zucchini muffins, I swapped out applesauce for canned pumpkin, added brown sugar and maple syrup, and warmed up the flavors. The ingredient list is long, but it's worth the effort for gluten-free muffins this moist and cozy. These muffins aren't overly sweet, but if you'd like to, you could use a crumb or sugar topping, or substitute chocolate chips for the dried fruit.
As with the zucchini muffins, if you don't want to bake 18 at once, spoon the extra batter into lined muffin cups and place it in the freezer. Once the batter is frozen, remove the cups and store them vapor-proof freezer bags until ready to use. When you're ready to use them, just pop the frozen batter into a muffin tin, and increase the baking time by 10 minutes.
Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice MuffinsDry Ingredients:
⅔ cup sorghum or millet flour
⅔ cup tapioca flour
⅔ cup brown rice flour
¾ cup brown sugar
¾ teaspoon xanthan gum
2 teaspoons of baking powder
¾ teaspoon of baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon ginger
¼ teaspoon allspice
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon salt Wet Ingredients:
15 ounces canned pumpkin purée
1½ teaspoons Ener-G Egg Replacer
2 tablespoons warm water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons maple syrup ½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup raisins or dried cranberries Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare muffin tins with liners. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk together wet ingredients in a medium bowl. Pour wet ingredients into the dry and stir until combined. Stir in nuts and dried fruit. Distribute batter evenly among 18 muffin cups. Bake for 22-25 minutes. Muffins are done when a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Leave muffins in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Let cool at least 30 minutes before eating, or they will stick to the liners.
Makes 18 small muffins.

By Maurice W. AndersonFerron
Our forefathers had it right. When they settled this country the first thing they were in need of was a home. There were many forms of natural resources that needed developing. They eventually started using the natural resources that were available in America. Trees for lumber were in abundance, and that hasn't changed much. If managed right it will supply America with lumber and the many by-products that come from trees. It also creates jobs for the people. Somehow this sound practice has been changed.
The environmentalists have been closing roads at an alarming rate. They have limited the use of our forest lands to the point that it is impossible to harvest the timber that needs harvesting. This is why the forest personnel say they need to burn our forest. At this time our forests are in very bad shape, thanks to the environmentalists and poor management.
I was told that burning was going to go on for a long time.
Here are the results of burning.
1- Air quality in Wayne, Emery and Carbon counties was so bad this summer you couldn't see the mountains or desert.
2- People that have respiratory problems were put at great risk.
3- Burning ruins good timber that could be harvested and used.
4- Burning also ruins the habitat for the animals of the forest.

Holiday Invite: High Holy Days on the Net
Shanah Tova!
Happy New Year!
With the Jewish season of the High Holy Days upon us, we are delighted to invite you to come join our High Holiday Day celebrations at Holidays on the Net.
The Jewish High Holy Days refer to the ten-day period between the first day of the Jewish month of Tishrei, when Rosh Hashanah begins, and the tenth day of the month, when Yom Kippur falls.
These two holidays are the most significant in the Jewish calendar, a time rich in religious, spiritual and historical symbolism. On Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish people celebrate the beginning of a new year. The holiday is commemorated with special services, such as Tashlich (casting off of one's sins), and the blowing of the shofar (and here). Rosh Hashanah is also a sacred time for ritualized family gatherings and sweet festive meals. And make your celebration a sweet and tasty one with our delicious holiday recipes.
Get the little ones interested in the holiday with our selection of fun and entertaining Rosh Hashanah crafts and holiday related coloring pictures. Send holiday greetings to your friends and family with our Rosh Hashanah eGreeting Cards.
Between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are the Days of Awe. During this ten-day period, the Jewish people stand before G-d, praying for forgiveness for their sins and hoping to be inscribed in the Book of Life. Then on Yom Kippur, which is also called the Day of Atonement, the Jewish people fast for 25 hours, during which they atone for their sins.
We hope that you will find something at Holidays on the Net that will help you better enjoy and appreciate these High Holy Days. We really look forward to seeing you at our High Holy Days celebration!
Happy Holidays and Shanah Tova!

Hurricanes vs Chiefs
The extended format of the Super Rugby tournament means squad rotation and managing injuries have become increasingly important. Dave Rennie's thwarted attempts to bring in Casey Laulala led him to bemoan the issue of a player exodus from New Zealand and depth available. That inability to field a consistent side has likely been the reason his side have conceded an average of 28 points in the last five matches. They ended last season with defeats to both the Crusaders and Hurricanes and now face those sides home and away in their run in. The 'Canes have proved an infuriatingly unpredictable team for pre-game predictions this year, scoring plenty of points against the Kings, 'Tahs and Cheetahs and then looking blunt in other matches. It seems that Naka Drotske's comments about targeting them up front caused plenty of consternation and were used as motivation last week but it remains the case that they've conceded the most tries against front-rowers in the competition. 'Canes have won seven of the last eleven meetings between the side by an average score of 26-21 and the last seven at home by 31-20. The recent meetings, bar one exception in 2012, have tended to be close affairs with 5/6 games decided by six points or less. The Chiefs appear to be comfortable enough scoring early points (they've reached ten points first in 9/11 games) but have let sides back into matches recently. The hosts have led at half-time in their previous ten home games and won the 'race to ten points' in eight matches so far – but have been outscored in the second-half in 7/11 games at all venues. Given the tight nature of this fixture and with home advantage, I think a price of 2.5 and a +4 point advantage are a touch too generous, so I'm on the hosts.
Rebels vs Stormers
The Rebels have lost nine of their eleven games this season with the only victories coming against the Force, a side they've beaten on 5/6 occasions. If you ignore those wins over the Perth-based side then the season can be split, firstly into a run of five games between Rounds 2-6 when they lost by an average of 15-36 and were heavily outscored each time in the second-half by an average of nineteen points. Since Round 8 though, the average score has been 30-34 and they've outscored teams after the break in the last three. Coach Damien Hill has lamented "I'm sick of bonus points" and it remains to be seen whether his side can go that extra step now and start winning these close games. The Stormers were always going to be deemed heavy favourites going into this match, however last season the Rebels were one of only four sides to score more than 20 points against them and are the only team in 27 matches to score 21 points in a half against them. The visitors' results have seen a pattern of two wins, then two losses (and repeat) so far. With no byes remaining and two games against the Kings they are in danger of ending the season in a relegation scrap rather than a title challenge. There has been an average score of 20-21 in their games, though that is slightly inflated by high-scoring matches against the Chiefs and Brumbies in Rounds 3-4. They've scored 37 of 50 points in their last three games in the second-half and carried for a paltry 85 metres last week. The visitors are minus Rynhardt Elstadt and Duane Vermeulen and that Elton Jantjies / Louis Schreuder partnership can be targeted. Allister Coetzee may be calling it an "exciting" side but I'm not sure that's a term that can be applied to the Stormers at the moment. The last five Rebels matches and eight of ten Stormers games have been decided by a seven points or less so I will take the Rebels +8 here.
Waratahs vs Brumbies
The 'Tahs have won five of their last seven games and five of six home games by an average score of 26-22. All six of those home matches have been decided by a margin of six points or less. They've lost the last three games with the Brumbies but won 9/11 clashes at home against them, by a rate of 28-18. The Brumbies have won ten of their last thirteen Australian derbies by 25-13 and are unbeaten in eight. The visitors are also top of the conference but whilst they've only lost twice this season, the draws against Kings and Reds mean it's three wins from their last seven games. With the Reds starting to find form and memories of what happened at the end of last season, there will be a desire not to slip away after a strong start. The Brumbies have scored 21/30 tries in the first-half and have led at the break in eight matches. They've scored first in nine games and the first try in ten contests. However after the break, they've been outscored in six of the last eight games. The hosts lost in eight rounds last season by less than a converted try and only outscored two teams in the second-half. The late-earned victories over Chiefs and Stormers this year suggest that the side has a greater confidence now and belief in the system that Michael Cheika has put in place. On paper, there appears to be a high chance of a style clash and Jake White will have noted the hosts' woes at the line-out. However, I think this will be far different to the 35-6 hammering in Round 3 and like the look of the Waratahs +1, with the hosts and in-form full-back Israel Folau catching the Brumbies cold after their week off.
Hail Mary
It's 112.5 for Liam Messam, Scott Higginbotham and Willem Alberts each to score a try with a price of 47.0 for Bundee Aki, Nick Cummins and Frank Halai. The unlikely prospect of the 'Canes, Rebels, Force, Crusaders, 'Tahs, Bulls and Reds all winning by a margin of 1-12 points is a 3139.0 shot. Last but not least, a multiple of backing the Hurricanes +9, Rebels +13, Western Force +8, Blues +16, Waratahs +5, Bulls -9 and Reds +6 is at the 15.0 mark.
I will take Crusaders, 'Tahs, Bulls, Clermont and Reds by the 1-12 margin.

Michel Nadorp is an artist with the Dutch Disney art studio. He started his career in 1979 as an apprentice to Fred Julsing, who taught him the finer points of the profession. In this period, Michel drew his first, unpublished, comic, 'Kick en de Onderwereld'. Julsing recommended Michel to the Dutch Disney editors in 1980. He started out drawing covers for Donald Duck and the now-defunct Mickey Maandblad.
Since then, Nadorp's main activity has been drawing covers and posters. His work has become a trademark for the many Dutch Disney publications. Nearly all the covers for the pocket books are Michel's and his art regularly graces the covers of the weekly Donald Duck and the monthly Donald Duck Extra.
Goofy Geeft Les
His cover art has been reused for foreign Disney publications and Michel has also contributed exclusive cover illustrations to Aku Ankka Ekstra in Finland and Walt Disney's Comics and Stories in the USA.
However, Nadorp has also made an occasional comic story, starring characters like Donald Duck, Dombo, Goofy or Mickey Mouse. Together with Jos Beekman, he has set up popular sections like 'Mickey Lost 't Op' and 'Goofy Geeft Les'.
In addition to his work for Disney, Michel Nadorp has drawn a 'Spiderman' story for the 1990/1991 Superhero pocket calendar, as well as the gag strip 'Max!' in Hitkrant magazine from 1996 to 1999 (with text by Frans Hasselaar).

The Emery High Lady Spartans ran their season record to 11-2 and their region record to 3-0 with a pair of region wins last week. On Tuesday, Emery traveled to Salina and played the North Sevier Wolves and won the game 57-43 with four different members of the team scoring in double figures. On Thursday, the Lady Spartans hosted South Sevier at the Spartan Center and defeated the Lady Rams 35-27.
While the final score in the game against South Sevier indicates that it was a close game, in reality it was not. Emery led 11-5 after the first quarter 22-14 at the half and after winning the third quarter 9-2 led at the end of that period 31-16. South Sevier rallied in the final quarter against Emery's starters, won the period 11-4 and gave us the final score to make that score close.
Hannah Dyer led the team with 10 points and was the only Spartan in double figures. Bailey Rasmussen scored 7 with Ashton Bell scoring 6 and Ashlynn Allred scoring 5 points. Also scoring were Emily Olsen with 3 points and Kelsie Cox and Cassidy Labrum with 2 points each.
In this game, Emery started each of the first three quarters strong only to see South Sevier end the period on their own run to cut the lead. In the first period, Emery led 6-0 before the two team battled to a 5-5 tie. In the second quarter, Emery led 9-4 and then were outscored 5-2 over the final minutes of that period. In the third quarter, Emery led 3-2 and finished the quarter on a 6-0 run. In the final quarter, Emery did not score until they made a free throw with a 1:34 left in the game. Emery did miss a lot of free throws, layups and short shots in that final period.
At North Sevier, Emery trailed the Wolves 12-11 after the first quarter as the Spartans defense did not keep up with their opponent's offense. Emery grabbed a small lead in the second quarter as they won the period 14-9 and led at the half 25-21, still a close game. Emery broke open the game in the third quarter as they won the period 16-4 and had a 16-point lead. North Sevier won the final quarter 18-16 to get to the final score.

Ashton Bell also might have played her best game statistically wise as she scored 13 points had 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals. Allred scored 11 points and Dyer scored 10 points as they gave the team four players with 10 points or more. Allred finished with 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals while Dyer had 5 rebounds.

But Imma just stay outta here since we are getting off topic.
Experienced players and the fan base aren't mutually exclusive. They probably took a fucking survey with a poor sample group and decided to move on the update based off of that.

They didn't do a survey. They read the forums and saw more people bitching than reading the experienced players discuss what needed to be tweaked. Just about every MMO does that. Except WoW. Whatever they got going for themselves is working like hell. Plus they got great marketing which is boosting up their player base even more. Watching that Toyota WoW commercial made me want to almost sign up.
The only reason Retadins were buffed like they were was because all people did was bitch that they weren't strong enough. The only reason locks got nerfed like they did was because people bitched saying they couldn't kill a lock.
The Developers of SWG didn't listen to the players. The same thing has happened with every SoE game.
