First let me say I hope none of you get what I HAVE . Yesterday I felt rough in the AM , and great all the rest of the day. Didn't hunt yesterday at all . This morning I get up from one heck of a lousy night and forced myself to hit the woods .
First stop : No turkeys , not audible or responsive . Only two deer , one of which was a big bodied feller with antlers .
Second stop : 150 yards from the truck I heard a jake make one of those squawks they do when some other turkey is threatening them . I heard it 3 times but was unable to get the exact location . But , I went toward where I thought the sound had come from . Maybe they saw me . Maybe I misjudged the distance or area . NO GAME .
Third stop : I ventured into a stand of timber I haven't been in for a few years . I slipped in and sat down on a nice log , right on top . Good brush density too. I can see downhill from 8 o'clock to 3 o'clock .
Well , by now it's warming up nicely and that along with a lousy night of rest and the ailment too, my eyelids kept tryin' to fall down .
I'm sitting perfectly still , except when hittin' a call about every fifteen minutes or so . Looking straight ahead when my eyes are open ,,,listening all the while. Shortly after my third series of calls I hear what sounds like a turkey walking . I didn't move anything but my eyelids . Hey , that's quite an improvement from what I would have done a while back . I listened intently as the slow methodical steps got closer . I judged it to be inside 20 yards at about 2 o'clock . Then the slow steps turned into the unmistakable sound of a jumping squirrel . I slowly turned my head and sure enough he gets up on the log ,,,,,with me . Jump,jump,jump he comes toward me . Now it is about 7-8 feet and starts looking me over . Have you ever seen the movie , ''TRUE GRIT'' , with John Wayne ? Recall how he would cock his head sideways and bug out his one good eye ? That's the same look I was getting from this ONE EYED grey squirrel . He'd turn his bad eye away and cock his head a little and look me over . His bad eye had made some miraculous healing I would say . It looked like the lid was just pulled down and that was it . He looked perfectly normal other than that . And I can attest to the fact that being with only one eye it doesnot slow them down .When I made my whole body jump and shuffled my feet , he was 20 feet away bythe time I stopped moving .
Hey , if I'm gonna feel bad , I might as well be somewhere I enjoy .

Any one knows when is GL planning on bringing the SW trilogy on DVD?

Any one knows when is GL planning on bringing the SW trilogy on DVD?
With the EPI release...the classic trilogy is just ahead...possibly next year...:eek: :D
The official word is still 2006. There's an interview over atThe Digital Bits that explains a bit about why the delay.
Of course, the official word on TPM until recently was 2006, so we can dream. :)
no word on the original trilogy, but in my hometown paper, the dvd review of episode 1 quoted lucasfilm as saying the episode 2 and 3 dvd's will be released in a timely manner as opposed to the 2 1/2 years for episode 1 to come out. hopefully about 6 to 9 months after episode 2 is released, we'll have the dvd.
memo to lucas: the day after episode 2 is released in theatres, get your crew working on the dvd! you don't have to be there. you can still go on your traditional after film vacation.:)
I heard that A New Hope won't be released until Episode III comes out on DVD. Let's hope they change their mind.
With the upcoming 25th anniversary they are going to stagger the DVD releases.
2002: Star Wars IV 25th annivesary DVD
2003: Episode II AOTC Special Edition DVD
2004: Empire Strikes Back DVD
2005: Return of the Jedi DVD
2006: Episode III DVD
2007: Star Wars Saga Super Achival Edition 15 disc set with all six movies with newly added scenes plus a comprehensive behind the scenes bonus set of discs following the progress of the saga from the beginning, including the original "making of" Shows, interviews from news programs at the time (A la NBC's Time and Again retrospectives.) And the Holiday Special and Alternate Edit of A New Hope. Retail $249.99
Then he starts Indians Jones 4...
EP, we can always dream. :)
Lucas has to release AOTC and E3 more quickly than he did with TPM, since the precedent has been set. Otherwise he won't sell any VHS tapes, since everyone will know a much nicer DVD set is on the way.
BTW, derek, I wouldn't be surprised if they start work on the AOTC DVD before the theatrical release. That's not at all uncommon.
I can't even imagine the work they have ahead for themselves on these films. I'm sure all of the reference material is badly deteriorated and will need years of restoration before Uncle George will even give the green light to the OT/SET DVDs.
They will have to scour the archives and sort through all the production stills, behind the scenes footage and pre-production material to even come close to what they included on the TPM DVD. YOW!!! :eek:
I am hoping for a completed version of the Anchorhead scene, the original Cantina sequence, the Wampa pen scenes and the Sandstorm scene.
It would be great to see the OT scenes next to the SET scenes kinda the way they showed the storyboards/animatics/finished film section.
Nevertheless... I can't wait... but I WILL, because I want it to be done properly! :D

I really seem to be obsessed with carrying things on wood on bicycles these days.
Here's another design for a bike-mounted rack, called the Bent Basket. Thick nylon straps are removable and interchangeable and the base looks like a skateboard design gone wrong. I like it, although those straps could really wreck havoc on fresh strawberries (my girlfriend and I are having a heck of time getting strawberries and raspberries home on our bikes without the end result looking like a CSI crime scene).
More info from the Bent Basket site:
Each bent basket is handmade from bent wood, an aluminum frame and stretchy nylon straps.
Carry area is 16"L x 12.5W
Designed for 700c road bike
Maximum weight: 12 pack of beer

By Emily Wagster Pettus/The Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi spent nearly $7.5 million for salaries and expenses of state lawmakers during the 11 months that ended in early April.
That breaks down to nearly $5.2 million for the House of Representatives and $2.3 million for the Senate.
The figures are in a new report from the state auditor's office (http://1.usa.gov/12Y1ZJW ).
The report covers expenses from May 4, 2012, the end of that year's regular legislative session; through April 7, 2013, the end of this year's session.
When all legislative seats are filled, the House has 122 members and the Senate has 52. There were several vacancies during the past year because of deaths or resignations.
The report shows that lawmakers who live farther from Jackson generally were compensated more because they were paid for more miles driven.

We send out to MSU. It's about $90 plus whatever the vet charges for collection and shipping. From their website:
"...This panel consists of antibody titers for the following organisms: Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme), Babesia canis and gibsoni, Ehrlichia canis, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, and Rickettsia rickettsii (Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever)...."
That pretty much covers this area.


text: Just cracked open Planet X: Genesis. If it were released domestically, it would be easily worth $150, so I find the $300 import price about right. High quality plastic and packaging, beautiful product. Feels very solid and would easily pass as something Hasbro could have produced in their own factories, unlike most 3rd party (where they may be high quality but rarely feel exactly like an official Hasbro Transformer). Makes me wonder if it wasn't actually manufactured in one of the same factories that produces Hasbro products (sneaky Chinese - I kind of hope it is).

Family: Mobulidae, Mantas view all from this family
Description The manta ray (Manta birostris) is the largest species of the rays. The largest known specimen was more than 7.6 metres (25 ft) across, with a weight of about 1,300 kilograms (2,900 lb). It ranges throughout waters of the world, typically around coral reefs. They have the largest brain-to-body ratio of the sharks, rays and skates (Elasmobranchii), a brain which is kept warm during lengthy dives to as deep as 500 metres in cold water.
Mantas have a variety of common names, including Atlantic manta, Pacific manta, devilfish, and just manta. At one time it was thought that there were many species of manta. Until quite recently, scientific consensus has been that there is just one species, a view supported by mitochondrial DNA studies.
However recent studies have suggested that manta rays actually comprise at least two different species, the giant manta (Manta birostris), which migrates, and another smaller one called the reef manta (Manta alfredi), which does not. The use of the "alfredi" name is questionable. The species alfredi was first used in the description of Prince Alfred's manta ray by Krefft in 1868. Modern genetic studies have shown that Ceratoptera alfredi (Krefft, 1868), revised as Manta alfredi (Krefft, 1868), is a synonym of Manta birostris (Donndorff, 1798). The genus is generally considered to be in need of worldwide revision. Even the accepted name Manta birostris is often incorrectly ascribed to Walbaum (1792).
Dimensions Up to 22' (6.7 m) wide.
Habitat Ocean or bay shallows, Open ocean.
Range New England, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Florida.

So then, weu agree that some infringement on the right to keep and bear arms is to the greater benefit of society as a whole and the word "infringed" can and does allow for rules and regulations.
I guess all that needs to be determined is the line of reasoning one is willing to accept on what should and/or should not be limited.
Kind Regards,

It's already started. Eleven AIG executives have resigned so far. Who's going to take those jobs with the current limits to compensation delineated by TARP and the ridiculous media frenzy over bonuses? Nobody with a brain. That will certainly help AIG get back on track.
Keep on focusing on Corporate bonuses and private jets. That way you don't have time to be outraged by the gross disregard for the law by our elected officials.
Matt McKenzie
"Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it." Henry Ford
AIG is done, you can stick a fork in them. No way they will survive the liberal media frenzy over the bonuses.
How many tax payer billions have been wasted by our government attempting to bail them out? Our gooberment is destroying them in the media for AIG executing a plan approved by the Obomo administration!
This country will not survive four years of Obomo and his idiots.
"All those things bother me: The populism, the lying and the scapegoating and the xenophobia bother me, but then theres a layer of incompetence here. I suppose, in a way, we should be thankful: If he had a coherent ideology, hed probably be more dangerous." P J O'Rourke
It will be interesting to hear how AIG defends themselves today. I listened to a program yesterday on ,gulp, NPR (my lefty comrades choice, not mine) and they were talking to someone from AIG (current or former, I dont remember) and wow did he stumble when asked why these folks should get such big bonuses when they, as a company, did such a poor job. His first answer was that companies like AIG needed the talent that these people possessed. The host ,and this kind of surprised me, pushed and asked how much talent that really was in light of the fact that they had lost 68 billion dollars in the last quarter. The guy went on to change his tune and state that it was not so much talent as the fact that these are jobs that you and I cant fill because we dont understand or speak the language of derivatives and such. The host pressed even further in asking if he thought that these people actually understood it being that they lost so much money and had to have a bailout to survive. He really could not provide a good response to that and that was the end of the interview.
My point is that I agree the government should not be chasing the people who got the bonuses and trying to make rules to tax them for the money. That is bad any way you slice it. I do not feel, however, that in this case these folks that are leaving are irreplaceable or worth retaining. AIG has done enough to hurt itself and I cannot place all of the blame on the goberment. AIG could have done the right thing and restructured their contracts. I dont care who you are or how much you make, there comes a time when you do the right thing and hope for payback down the line in better times. Public image is worth as much as any of these guys leaving AIG. By not doing what is perceived to be right AIG may have dealt itself a knockout punch. People and businesses that can will leave AIG like urine flowing from a sleeping drunk in an alley. The black eye that AIG has given itself is going to hurt far worse than what the government is doing to them. Public image is everything
I dont care if executives fly in corporate jest or get huge bonuses IF, and this is a BIG IF, the company is making their OWN money, is not owned by the taxpayer, is not STILL LOOSING MONEY, and is not asking for BILLIONS of dollars more from us. When the government has to save your ass to keep your doors open all bets are off as far as this stuff goes. The only reason the government has/may have a say in this is because it is OUR money and that is where the difference lies. If McDonalds want to give bonuses and fly around in corporate jet, more power to them and the government should have no say in it. If GM, AIG et al want our money then they must spend it wisely. That said no stipulations were put on the money AIG paid out. That was stupid and done with little to no forethought. So we agree that the government should not be trying to get it back, we apparently disagree that these folks deserve bonuses or to even keep their jobs. Sorry but I saw a report yesterday that said 70+ people got a million dollars or more in bonus. I just dont personally see why any company who is still dying and lost as much money as they have can justify giving anyone working for them a million dollars in bonus. Who is responsible for their losses? It has to be the people in charge and one would have to ponder a guess that the ones getting a million + in bonuses are the people in charge. Kind of like giving the coach ot the Lions a million dollar bonus for an 0-16 season dont ya think?
EDIT: Bho just said
"Just as outrageous is the culture that these bonuses are a symptom of, that has existed for far too long: excess greed, excess compensation, excess risk-taking," he said.
Now that is something I do not agree with. If the money is there, the money a company has made, not gotten form the goberment, they can and should be able to di what they want with it. The big thing here is that he wants total control of banks and such to further his agenda and that is the death of America

Mandatory Recycling & Compost
San Francisco Law
The City and County of San Francisco requires San Francisco residents and businesses to properly separate recyclables and compostables and keep them out of the landfill.
Property owners/managers, including of apartments, condos, TICs, food establishments, and events are required to provide color-coded, labeled containers in convenient locations: blue for recycling, green for composting, and black for trash. You must also educate tenants, employees, contractors, and janitors on what goes in each container. Food vendors that provide disposable food service ware or to-go containers must have blue, green, and black containers for use by customers and visitors, placed inside near a main exit.
Residential Property Owners
Blue recycling and green composting carts are free with your trash service. You may be able to lower your trash bill by recycling and composting more, and ordering a smaller black trash cart.
Recology provides apartment starter kits and pails for tenants to collect kitchen food scraps. Food scraps can also be placed in paper milk cartons, paper bags, or wrapped in paper before being placed in the green cart.
Ask your manager to sign up for composting, recycling, and trash service.
Renters can report unresponsive managers by using the anonymous form at www.SFEnvironment.org/mandatory.
Learn more about the Mandatory Recycling and Composting Ordinance.
State Law
California Assembly Bill 341 (CA AB 341) is a new state law that mandates recycling for all businesses that generate more than 4 cubic yards of solid waste per week and multifamily dwellings of 5 units or more.
Mandatory commercial recycling was among the first measures adopted in the AB 32 Scoping Plan by the California Air Resources Board pursuant to the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. Mandatory commercial recycling increases waste diversion from landfills to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. AB 341 is designed to reduce GHG emissions in the state by 5 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Businesses and public entities can subscribe to composting and recycling services or self-haul materials to the transfer station. Property owners of a commercial business or multifamily residential dwelling may require tenants to source separate their recyclable materials to aid in compliance.
Recology provides a recycling and composting guide to businesses so that they can recycle in San Francisco.
Learn more about AB 341 on CalRecycle's website.
Contact our customer service department to speak with a real person about your service needs.

By From school reports
MONROE, La. – Ole Miss scored runs in four of the first six innings en route to a 10-4 victory over ULM (8-8) Tuesday night at Warhawk Field.
The Rebels plated a single run in each of the first two innings before pushing three runs across in the top of the fourth inning. Preston Overbey highlighted the Ole Miss fourth with a two-RBI double down the left field line to give Ole Miss (17-1) a 5-0 lead.
ULM scored its first run in the home half of the fifth inning. Dalton Herrington recorded the first hit of the game with a double to right center. After stealing third, Herrington scored on Jeff Fuller's RBI single up the middle to cut the deficit to 5-1.
Ole Miss tacked on three runs in the sixth as Austin Anderson cleared the bases with a double to give the visitor's a 8-1 advantage.
warhawks answer
The Warhawks responded with three runs of their own in the bottom of the seventh. Kodie Tidwell, Herrington and Chris Dudley all touched home plate as the Warhawks again trimmed the Rebel lead to four (8-4).
The Rebels scored twice in the ninth to conclude the scoring and claim a 10-4 victory.
Herrington led the Warhawks with two hits (both doubles) and two runs. Starting pitcher Cale Wine fell to 2-2 on the season after allowing two earned runs on three hits with one walk and one strikeouts in two innings of work.
Ole Miss starter Josh Laxer (2-0) earned the win after allowing three runs on three hits with two walks and four strikeouts in 61⁄3 innings. Anderson and Overbey combined for four hits and six RBI.

'AWOL' authors discuss book, Sept. 25
Posted September 20, 2006; 05:07 p.m.
The authors of "AWOL: The Unexcused Absence of America's Upper Classes From Military Service -- and How It Hurts Our Country" will discuss their book at 4:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 25, in 16 Robertson Hall.
In the book, Kathryn Roth-Douquet and Frank Schaeffer examine the growing disconnect between the cultural elite and the military rank-and-file, which the authors assert has created a dangerous lack of understanding between those in power and those who serve in the military.
Roth-Douquet, an attorney and political activist who writes on issues of the military in society, served in the Clinton administration as associate director of presidential advance and in the Department of Defense as acting principal assistant deputy undersecretary of defense. She earned a master's degree in public affairs from Princeton in 1991.
Schaeffer, a writer and filmmaker, has made numerous documentaries, including a series on medical ethics with former U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop. He also has directed four feature films, written for several newspapers and published three novels.
The lecture is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.
