Title: Methane Monitoring Program
Identification Number: WASTE-0056-NPD
Date Originally Effective: March 17, 2005
Dates Revised: March 28, 2007
Other Policies Repealed or Amended: Enclosure D1 Guidance
Citations Affected: 329 IAC 10-20-17
Brief Description of Subject Matter:
In accordance with the Solid Waste Rule 329 IAC 10-20-17, the owner, operator, or permittee of a municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF) is required to monitor and control the landfill gas generated by their site to prevent methane concentrations from exceeding 25% of the lower explosive limit for methane in MSWLF structures, and the lower explosive limit for methane at the facility boundary. This document provides guidance for content, design considerations, and specifications that should be included in a Methane Monitoring Program.
This nonrule policy document is intended solely as guidance and does not have the effect of law or represent formal Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) decisions or final actions. This nonrule policy document shall be used in conjunction with applicable laws. It does not replace applicable laws, and if it conflicts with these laws, the laws shall control. This nonrule policy document may be put into effect by IDEM thirty days after presentation to the appropriate board. Pursuant to IC 13-14-11.5, this policy will be available for public inspection for at least 45 days prior to presentation to the appropriate board. If the nonrule policy is presented to more than one board, it will be effective thirty days after presentation to the last. IDEM will submit the policy to the Indiana Register for publication. Revisions to the policy will follow the same procedure of presentation to the board and publication.
In accordance with the Solid Waste Rule 329 IAC 10-20-17, the owner, operator, or permittee of a municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF) is required to monitor and control the landfill gas generated by their site to prevent methane concentrations from exceeding 25% of the lower explosive limit for methane in MSWLF structures, and the lower explosive limit for methane at the facility boundary. This document provides guidance for content, design considerations, and specifications that will satisfy the commissioner that a Methane Monitoring Program proposal complies with 329 IAC 10-20-17.
This nonrule policy document will be utilized during the commissioner's review of Methane Monitoring Program proposals submitted as required by the Solid Waste Rule for new sites and site expansions. The commissioner shall approve alternatives to the final design as outlined in this guidance if they are demonstrated, to the satisfaction of the commissioner, to provide at least the equivalent protection to human health and the environment. Currently approved Methane Monitoring Programs may continue as approved unless it is determined that the program is ineffective due to physical evidence of gas migration or geological conditions that warrant revision based on 329 IAC 10-20-17(c). Revisions to current Methane Monitoring Programs will follow this guidance only as it is directly supported by the Rule.
Much of the geological information requested in this guidance is available in the site hydrostudy submitted in the permit application under 329 IAC 10-15-4, in subsequent boring information and in the results of the regular ground water sampling.
329 IAC 10-20-17(b) requires MSWLFs to prepare, propose for the commissioner's approval, and implement an approved routine Methane Monitoring Program. The proposal for a facility Methane Monitoring Program should include the following:
329 IAC 10-20-17(c) requires that the type and frequency of methane monitoring be based on the facility's structural and geological conditions. Conditions applicable to the design of the methane monitoring system should be included in the proposal as follows:
1.1 A narrative describing the following landfill conditions:
1.2 A narrative with plans and charts describing the following geological conditions:
329 IAC 10-20-17(a)(1) requires the facility to measure methane gas in MSWLF structures, excluding gas control, leachate collection manholes, or recovery system components.
The Methane Monitoring Program proposal should include the following information:
2.1 A narrative describing the method of methane measurement including:
329 IAC 10-20-17(a)(2) requires the facility to ensure that sub-surface methane gas at the facility boundary does not exceed 100% of the lower explosive limit (LEL) of methane (5%). The facility may make this assurance under one of two systems: Early Warning or Perimeter. A detection in an early warning system allows the facility time to react prior to a violation, while a perimeter system detection automatically triggers a violation. The facility may opt for a mixture of both systems of testing locations within a Methane Monitoring Program. The Methane Monitoring Program should include the following considerations:
3.1 Testing locations under a perimeter system are designed to determine whether gas is migrating across the facility boundary and therefore need to be placed as close as practicable to the facility boundary but not more than fifty (50) feet inside the facility boundary. A detection over the LEL will be considered a transgression of methane across the facility boundary and therefore a violation of 329 IAC 10-20-17(a)(2).
3.2 Testing locations under an early warning system should be as close as possible to the solid waste boundary, however any well between the solid waste boundary and fifty (50) feet from the facility boundary should be considered early warning testing locations.
3.3 All facility boundary testing locations should be spaced on the schedule below. MSWLF structures that are subject to 329 IAC 10-20-17(a)(1) are not intended to be considered in these spacing guidelines.
3.4 329 IAC 10-20-17(c) requires the facility to consider the geology of the site to determine gas migration. Generally, this will require a permanent probe at each test location capable of accessing soil gas at depths identified in 1.2.
3.5 329 IAC 10-21-4 should be used as a general guideline for gas probe installation. While this regulation pertains to ground water monitoring wells, the construction and reporting requirements are similar to gas probes. The major exception is 329 IAC 10-21-4(c)(5)(C), which limits screen length. In the case of gas probes, screen lengths should be specified and justified. IDEM prefers probe screen lengths to be as long as possible, though geological conditions may require specific adjustments.
3.6 The installation of permanent probes may be phased to coincide with cell construction provided the facility has interim measures in place and the approval of IDEM.
3.7 The testing location proposal should include landfill topographic plot plans clearly delineating the following on a scaled map as required by 329 IAC 10-11-2.5 and 329 IAC 10-15-2. Items requested below not applicable to the facility should be noted as such in the text or on the plan.
3.8 The Methane Monitoring Program proposal should include a description of the system for measuring the methane gas concentration including:
*Please be aware that, depending on the method chosen for installing permanent probes, the Department of Natural Resources may require borehole drillers to be certified per 312 IAC 13.
3.9 Testing methods, at each location, should be capable of monitoring methane:
3.10 Additional probes might be needed after a Methane Monitoring Program is approved if evidence of gas migration is found through other means. (Ground water indications of gas migration can include volatile organic compounds and select inorganic compounds in ground water analysis results. Gas might also vent from ground water wells partially screened in unsaturated soils. Gas presence within the ground water well risers should be reported to IDEM based on 329 IAC 10-21-1(f). A facility could be put into an unnecessary ground water corrective action when a replacement well is more warranted.)
3.11 The installation of any device designed to vent landfill gas from the soil should be done in consultation with IDEM. Additional, or replacement, probes may be needed after a Methane Monitoring Program is approved if the function of a detection probe is impaired by nearby soil-gas venting.
329 IAC 10-20-17(c) requires a determination of type and frequency of methane monitoring. The Methane Monitoring Program should include collection method and quality control of landfill gas monitoring data as follows:
4.1 A description of the methods and equipment used to measure the concentration of methane at the landfill. The description should include procedures to ensure minimal air intrusion, calibration check, and employee and public safety. The equipment must be capable of measuring methane gas. It is preferred that oxygen and carbon dioxide percentages also be measured.
4.2 A sample of the form used to record data that includes the following field information:
4.3 Methane monitoring should be done:
4.4 Measurements taken within the top few feet of the ground surface have typically proven to be an ineffective measurement of landfill gas migration. Such methods might not take the hydrogeologic conditions into account as is required in 329 IAC 10-20-17(c).
329 IAC 10-20-17(d) requires an MSWLF facility to follow a schedule of remedial measures if methane gas criteria are exceeded. The Methane Monitoring Program should include a contingency plan, as required in all current permits, that allows the facility to follow pre-developed steps for the initial response to a violation of gas criteria. This general remedial contingency plan should be designed to be performed without acquiring formal approval of a modification to the permit. Performance of any such remedial work should be done in consultation with the Geology Section. Completion of an approved contingency plan should satisfy the implementation portion of 329 IAC 10-20-17(d)(4). The Methane Monitoring Program should include an explanation of how the facility will comply with 329 IAC 10-20-17(d) with a contingency plan including the items in 5.1 and 5.2 below:
5.1 Notification information including:
5.2 A general narrative including:
5.3 If the methane limits specified in 329 IAC 10-20-17(a) are exceeded:
5.4 Facilities with early warning systems, as described under 3.2, should include contingency plans specific to the system design. Such contingencies may include:
329 IAC 10-20-17(d)(4) requires a facility to propose a remedy within sixty (60) days of detecting levels of methane that exceed the limits defined in 329 IAC 10-20-17(a). The proposal that is inserted in the facility operating record should include both the work that has already been done, and any additional work that is deemed necessary. In the event that remediation tactics are ineffective and probe concentrations continue to exceed the regulatory limits of 329 IAC 10-20-17 for two quarters of monitoring, a gas venting system or a gas extraction system proposal for the facility should be submitted to IDEM for review. For more information on landfill gas venting systems, refer to the IDEM guidance document entitled "Methane Gas Venting System"
329 IAC 10-20-17(b) requires the Methane Monitoring Program to be a long-term routine program. Monitoring devices should be properly protected and maintained to ensure continued compliance with the approved Methane Monitoring Program. Owing to time constraints between monitoring events, submittal of the plans and details of repairs and replacements of monitoring devices in the approved Methane Monitoring Program due to accidental damage may be done after the work is completed as allowed under 329 IAC 10-3-3(b).
7.1 If a probe is damaged, it should be fixed or replaced before the next monitoring event.
7.2 If a gas probe is damaged beyond repair, the probe should be properly abandoned and a replacement probe be installed within ten (10) feet of the original. A description of the work done should be submitted as part of the approved Methane Monitoring Program. A probe will automatically be considered 'replaced' if it is installed within ten (10) feet of the original. If it is installed farther than ten (10) feet from the original, it will be considered a relocation, and a modification under 329 IAC 10-3-3(c), unless the new location is approved as a replacement by the Geology Section.
7.3 Abandonment procedures should follow 329 IAC 10-21-1(i). A description of the abandonment procedure should be submitted as part of the approved Methane Monitoring Program.
Changes in an approved Methane Monitoring Program are, in effect, a modification to the permit. A change in the program may be prompted by such things as facility activities requiring probes to be relocated or any remedial work required under 329 IAC10-20-17 (d). Any change to the Methane Monitoring Program, excluding maintenance, repair or replacement, must be submitted to IDEM prior to implementation under 329 IAC 10-3-3.
9.1 A Methane Monitoring Program is required (329 IAC 10-20-17(b)(1)) to be submitted, per the schedule devised in the facility permit, for approval prior to implementation and should include the information described in this document.
9.2 An As-Built Report will be required, as part of the pre-operational conditions of applicable solid waste permits. An as-Built Report for an approved revision to a Methane Monitoring Program needs to be submitted sixty (60) days after the implementation of the revision. This report should include such information that is gathered during the implementation of the Methane Monitoring Plan such as: probe construction, boring logs and a brief narrative, with geological cross-sections, on the probable interconnection between the screened interval of each probe and the zones targeted for screening in the Plan under 1.2.
9.3 Quarterly data are required (329 IAC 10-20-8(a)(10)) to be compiled and stored in the facility operating record. The Commissioner may request submittal or inspection of these data at any time (329 IAC 10-20-8(b)). Information in the quarterly data should include the items listed in 4.2.
9.4 Compilation of exceeding data and steps taken to protect human health are required by 329 IAC 10-20-17(d)(3) to be placed in the operating record within seven (7) days of a gas exceedance.
9.5 Within sixty (60) days of a detection of greater than 25% LEL (1.25% methane gas) in MSWLF structures or 100% LEL (5% methane gas) at the facility boundary, 329 IAC 10-20-17(d)(4) requires the following:
9.6 Implementation of any remediation plan required under 329 IAC 10-20-17(d)(4) is considered a change to, or revision of, the Methane Monitoring Program and therefore a modification to the permit under 329 IAC 10-3-3. Items that require expediency to protect human health and the environment may be approved verbally, and in consultation, with the IDEM Geology Section until a formal revision of the Methane Monitoring Program can be compiled and submitted for approval.

Also he has a recurve made out of pvc. If you are interested in it I will post a pic and give you dimensions but its shoots just as far as the compound does.
We had bow wars as a child. Actual pointed tips. I know a guy that got hit in the forehead. Could have been really bad. We just got lucky.
Take her Chad, even if she screws up your hunt (which she will).
I have one child - an 18 year old daughter. She used to go with me sometimes. Not very often though.
On two seperate occasions, I witnessed old guys absolutely melt - one actually teared up a little bit - at the gas station we used to stop at when we walked in there, holding hands, at about 4:30 am. She'd have her lil' camo clothes on, with her name embroidered in pink on her jacket, pony tail hanging out of her hat. You'll have a mental picture of it for the rest of your life - the same one I'm thinking about right now. Thanks for reminding me of those days.

The same goes with the Felucia pack.
I know you qualified your statement by saying "recent...history," but the Luke Skywalker figure they gave away in theaters with the rerelease of ROTJ SE was just a straight repack on a slightly different card.
Basically, if they do release these figures as both exclusives with a "unique" accessory, and a general release, then Hasbro has covered their rear-ends. We can't complain about not having access to figures and the people who go to the conventions get their exclusives.

Ever had certain drills that your dog just doesn't understand or the drill seems to confuse the dog no matter how you simplify it?
I have done wagon wheel drills with all my dogs and they did very well, actually seemed to like it. The last dog I trained did not understand the drill at all. The more we tried the more confused she got. It really killed her attitude and she started bugging. There were no corrections, just call backs and moving up trying to get her to understand. I finally gave up on it and just ran cold blinds and big memory blinds with her. Wondering if anyone else had a particular drill that just didn't work for one of your dogs.

Undergraduate Admission
Transfer Student Frequently Asked Questions
Applying as a Transfer Student
Who is a transfer student?
At Emerson, we define a transfer student as anyone with a high school diploma or GED (General Equivalency Diploma) who has matriculated full time at another college or enrolled part-time for three or more college courses (9 or more college credits). Students with college credits earned prior to high school graduation (e.g., dual enrollment) are considered first-year applicants.
A non-traditional transfer student is anyone who has been out of high school for a minimum of three years prior to beginning college and/or returning to college after an extended absence.
What are your transfer application deadlines?
Our transfer application deadlines for both fall and spring admission are available online.
Applications and supporting credentials received after the postmarked deadline will be considered only if there is available space in the program. In addition, if your application is still incomplete by the deadline, you may not receive a decision by the notification date.
What is required to apply for transfer admission?
Application requirements for transfer applicants are available online. Additional application materials are required for applicants to our Performing Arts programs, and recommended for applicants to Media Arts Production programs. The Business of Creative Enterprises major and Comedic Arts major are not available to transfer applicants at this time.
How will I know if Emerson has received all of my application materials?
Please visit the Application Portal to check your application status.
Can I apply to transfer for the spring semester?
With the exception of Performing Arts programs, we admit a limited number of transfer students each spring. The deadline to apply is November 1, but since we mail decisions in mid-December and the spring semester begins in mid-January, the turn-around time is tight.
The sooner you apply for spring and submit all the required documents, the sooner you may receive a decision (and, if admitted, receive information on transfer credits, course registration, and orientation).
What factors are considered in the transfer application evaluation?
Transfer admission is highly competitive. Although the selection process may differ slightly from major to major, we consider similar factors in the application review, such as the relative strength of your college coursework, your performance in those courses, your high school record, standardized test scores (if applicable), personal statements, application essay, recommendation letters, and activities both in school and in your community. Any additional requirements for Performing Arts or Media Arts Production will also be important in the review. Additionally, i f there are any gaps present with your educational history, you will need to account for them within your transfer writing supplement.
Successful transfer applicants typically follow a general education/liberal arts curriculum at their school for a full academic year earning "B" grades or better. Typically, the successful candidate will have completed at least a year of college credit (though some successful candidates have one semester of college coursework plus a strong high school record) and maintained higher than a 3.0 average. If you have been in college less than a year, your high school record will be an important consideration for admission.
Can I reapply?
You are welcome to reapply to Emerson, even if you applied within the past year. You will need to submit an updated transcript showing your most recent college grades and courses in progress. You may also want to consider writing a new essay, asking different people for recommendations, and submitting new supplemental materials.
(Please note: If you were a first-year applicant who was not accepted, we encourage you to take at least one year of college coursework before applying for transfer admission.)
Are transfer students eligible for financial aid?
Yes. Each year, approximately two-thirds of our student body, including transfer students, receives some form of financial assistance. The awards typically combine grant and scholarship, loan, and college work-study, and take into consideration the cost of transportation and off-campus housing.
In order to be considered for financial aid, you must submit both the Free Application for Federal Student Assistance (FAFSA) and the CSS PROFILE form, as well as copies of signed tax documents. April 4 is the deadline to file financial aid materials for September admission and for January admission, the deadline to file is November 1. More information is available from the Office of Financial Aid at 617-824-8655 or email@example.com.
Can transfer students live on campus?
On-campus housing for transfer students is very limited and is only offered on a space-available basis. Since we cannot guarantee residence space, our Off-Campus Student Services Office offers assistance in finding roommates as well as locating apartments. More information is available from Off-Campus Student Services or by calling 617 824-7863.
Transferring Credits
What is an "accredited institution"?
The term "accredited" usually means that a college or university has met or exceeded quality standards and has the resources to achieve its stated purpose. Emerson is accredited by the New England Association for Schools and Colleges, one of six regional organizations in the United States.
Transfer credits are accepted only from other accredited institutions. Credits from foreign colleges and universities may be transferred from schools recognized by national authorities as degree-granting institutions of higher learning.
Can I transfer credits earned somewhere else, and which of my classes will be transferable to Emerson?
Transfer credit is granted for comparable courses from accredited two- and four-year institutions that were completed in the last 10 years with grades of "C" (73% or 2.0) or better. A pass "P" or "CR" grade must equal a "C" or better. Consult our Undergraduate Catalogue to read course descriptions. The College reserves the right to award or withhold transfer credit as well as change transfer policies.
Once you have been offered admission to Emerson, we send all your college or university transcripts to our Registrar's Office to determine the number of General Education credits that are transferable. Faculty members in each academic department evaluate major-related courses. We then post an initial Evaluation of Transfer Credit Form online that you can access with your Emerson-issued ID (usually within two weeks from the date that you receive your admission offer). The Evaluation of Transfer Credit Form indicates which courses will transfer, the number of credits awarded, and your class standing.
Read the Transfer Credit Policy for more information.
Can I find out what courses will transfer to Emerson before I apply?
Although the number of transfer applications we receive prevents us from assisting students with credit evaluations prior to admission, many of your questions regarding the liberal arts curriculum can be answered by visiting the Academic Advising website or consulting our current Undergraduate Catalogue.
You will find that general education or traditional liberal arts courses will be more readily accepted for transfer credit than specific upper division classes in a major. Keep this in mind when choosing courses at your current college/university. Keep your school's catalogue, course descriptions, and course syllabi handy. You may be asked for additional information to evaluate your transfer credits.
What is the transfer policy for international transcripts?
If you have transcripts from a college or university outside the United States, you need to have them evaluated by World Education Services (WES), Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE), or the Center for Educational Documentation before the application deadline. Processing international credentials may take up to eight weeks, so please allow sufficient time for your documents to arrive by the application deadline.
My school doesn't grant 4 credits per class like Emerson. How do those classes transfer?
A 3-credit course completed at another institution will not transfer to Emerson as a 4-credit course. It will, however, satisfy a 4-credit (full-course) requirement. Credits awarded by other institutions in units, courses, or quarter hours, etc., will be converted to make them equivalent to Emerson's semester-hour credits. Quarter hours will be reduced by 1/3 to make them equivalent to semester hours.
What is the maximum number of transfer credits Emerson will accept?
A maximum of 80 credits may be transferred to Emerson; no more than 64 credits may be transferred from a junior or community college (even if you have an associate's degree with more than 64 credits). Consult our Undergraduate Catalogue regarding academic regulations.
Can I receive credit for AP, IB, or CLEP examinations?
Emerson grants transfer credit for Advanced Placement scores of 4 and 5, International Baccalaureate higher level exams with scores of 4, 5, 6, or 7 (with the exception of Language A/English, where a score of 6 or 7 is required), and CLEP exam scores of 50 or higher (for a full 4-credit course equivalent; freshman composition must be with essay).
Official test scores must be submitted to our Registrar's Office for evaluation before any examination credit can be awarded. Please refer to the Undergraduate Course Catalogue for more information.
What classes are definitely not accepted at Emerson?
Non-academic coursework from the following subject areas is generally not accepted for transfer credit at Emerson:
- Physical Education classes
- Engineering, Mechanical, and Technical courses
- Hotel, Restaurant Management, Travel and Hospitality courses
- College Success, Orientation, and First-Year Experience programs
- ESL classes
- Pre-College level (Pre-100 level) courses
How many classes will I need to take at Emerson?
Transfer students are required to complete a minimum of 48 credits at Emerson, of which at least 20 credits must be in their major. In addition, they are required to earn their final 16 credits at the College. Typically, students take 4 classes (or 16 credits) each semester.
Please refer to our Undergraduate Catalogue for additional academic regulations.

The bus fumes for East Union and Kossuth have barely vanished from the just-completed baseball state tournament.
And yet the preparation for the 2014 high school baseball season begins this week as teams step on the diamond for their summer baseball schedule.
"This time of year is vital for us," said Amory coach Chad Williams, whose team graduated eight seniors. "We are so inexperienced at every position, we want to get as many possible players in as many possible game situations.
"We want the new players to get as much experience as possible."
A trend this year for the Northeast Mississippi schools will be wooden bat tournaments, with at least three scheduled in the area. The Upper Cut Wooden Bat Tournament begins today at East Union, while Itawamba AHS hosts one next week, and a Baldwyn tournament is June 14-15.
East Union is in the same boat as Amory, a team that has now basically graduated an entire starting lineup. Last week, the Urchins played for the Class 2A state title against Taylorsville; this week, they are rebuilding on the field in game situations.
'Extremely important'
"In our situation, with so many seniors, the young kids were sitting there waiting to play," said Chris Basil, who has been at East Union for 21 seasons. "Now they get an opportunity.
"The summer schedule is extremely important for us. It helps us find out where we're going to be next season."
East Union will be hosting Pontotoc, Houston, Booneville, New Albany, Saltillo, Tupelo, and Amory in its round-robin tournament this week, with games today, Thursday, and Friday. Play today begins at 3 p.m.
The NEMCABB Summer Championship tournament is a highlight for area teams.
Regional or pool play for the tournament is June 20-21 at selected locations in the area, with the tournament format June 24-26 at the New Albany sportsplex. Last season, Lafayette defeated North Pontotoc in the tournament championship game.

Kripke to receive Schock Prize
Posted June 13, 2001; 11:15 a.m.
Saul Kripke, the McCosh Professor of Philosophy, Emeritus, has been selected to receive the 2001 Rolf Schock Prize for Logic and Philosophy.
The prize is being given to Kripke "for his creation of the modal-logical semantics that bear his name and for his associated original and profound investigations of identity, reference and necessity," according to a news release from the Schock Foundation.
The release further states, "Kripke's revolutionizing work in (modal logic) meant that we for the first time gained access to a simple and very far-reaching mathematical theory that was consonant with our philosophical intuitions."
As announced earlier, Elliott Lieb, the Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics and professor of mathematical physics at Princeton, will be awarded the Schock Prize for Mathematics. The two were selected by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. They will be honored in a ceremony Oct. 25 in Stockholm.

Hi Geeks. Welcome to the Geeks Designer Line section! This is where all the amazing design concepts that our graphics department and customers have helped create live. In this section you will find cases ranging from birds to bats, famous artwork to famous singers. Here are a few of the cases that I've pulled of the shelf. This first one is for the iPhone 4/4S. This case has these little plump owls sitting on branches. The light blue background makes this cute case pop. If you look closely, you'll notice that this case is actually sparkly, which adds a different sort of flare to this case. Pretty nifty if you ask me. The other cases in this line are also quite cute and even feature some love birds! Here we have another case for the iPhone 4/4S. This is obviously a Gangnam Style case. PSY exploded with this hit video and we loved it so much we made one of our own. We also decided to make this case! It comes in a variety of different background colors as well. Next up we have a Samsung Galaxy S3 case. This case has the android robot eating an apple. Quite the healthy snack. There is no hidden meaning behind this case…at all. A simple design that speaks volumes. This is not the only Android series case we have. Check the rest out today! Moving right along, we have this ice cream cone case. Another cute design inspired by the Geeks intense passion for eating. We've got a whole series dedicated to the sweets we love around the office. This last case is one of our favorites. We have a line that we call the Zorgblats. They are the newest members to our Geek team. They look pretty harmless but can be terrifying when necessary. These little guys will be making their appearances throughout the year so be sure to keep your eyes open! There are quite a few more designs that we have available but we'd be here for way too long if I tried to showcase them all. But here is a quick glance! I would like to point out that these cases are of the highest quality and won't disappoint. The designs are not on a piece of plastic that is then wrapped on to your case. The designs have been fused with the case so that you never have to worry about it peeling off or going anywhere. The Geeks here are constantly crunching our brains to come up with more design ideas so be sure to check back often. If you have your own design that you would like to print, please head on over to the full case customization page! Thanks for shopping with us and remember! You got it from A Geek!

America's other sweetheart.
Second highest earner. She might not be the finest actress the world has ever seen either, but at least she has facial expressions.
Kristen Wiig is hilarious! She could pick some better material sometimes, though.
America's sweetheart.
America's other sweetheart.
She does films about social justice and shit!
Makes crazyface like no one else on this planet.
Sorry, Glenn Close, your Oscar-nominated turn in Albert Nobbs was cool and everything, but sparkly vampires have a little more box office draw.
Meryl. Fucking. Streep.
Waaaaay down at the other end of the money spectrum is Rosemarie DeWitt. She's a great actress, but nobody seems to care!
Was superior to Kristen Stewart in The Runaways. Is superior to Kristen Stewart in everything.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
What you will need:
- empty cans
- organic succulents
- organic soil
- rocks
- mallet
- screwdriver
- leftover paint
- baker's twine
Step 2: Pick Your Plant
My son picked his favorite organic succulents from our local organic supplier. He chose plants based on his teacher's personalities – that is who he is giving the plants to. We suggest choosing succulents because they are a plant that everyone enjoys and that can easily grow in the cans.
Step 3: Add a Little Color
Soak the cans for a few minutes and then remove the labels. Dry and then dip the bottom half of each can into leftover paint – we had paint leftover from a project that was perfect for these gifts – allow to dry overnight.
Step 4: Add a Few Holes
Use a screwdriver and mallet to make several holes on the bottom of the tin car for drainage. You can also use your craft knife to clean up the paint line around the cans.
Step 5: Add the Rocks
Add a thin layer of rocks to the bottom of each can for drainage.
Step 6: Add the Soil
Let your child add the soil to each can, leaving room to plant your succulent, then cover the top with soil too.
Step 7: Water
Add a little water to get your succulent started and sit in a sunny place until you present it to your recipient.
Step 8: Add a Little Ribbon
Use baker's twine or natural twine to add a little greeting note for that special someone who will receive your paint dipped recycled can succulent plants!

214 Mulberry Street (btwn Prince and Spring) | 212.966.7366 | balaboostanyc
by Craig Cavallo
When you eat at a restaurant that serves foreign fare, the food should act as a portal. It should open doors that warp space and time and take you on a tour of the country's cuisine. The success of the journey is entirely up to the chef, and in the case of Balaboosta Einat Admony proves to be a wonderful tour guide. We were introduced to her culinary stylings in 2005, when Taim was opened in the West Village out of a longing for the street food of Tel Aviv. Balaboosta results from a desire to serve these authentic Middle Eastern flavors in a more formal setting. The restaurant will have its second birthday this year, though something tells me it's going to skip the terrible two's.
Balaboosta is a Yiddish word that means "perfect housewife" and the atmosphere is ripe with these sentiments. It feels as if you've walked into the chef's apartment. A picture of her aunt is the first thing you see, and the only thing to dress the white brick wall it hangs on. It's intentionally lit and hints at the significance of tradition and heritage that comes forth in the cuisine.
The beverage program dances a sensual tango around the fact that they don't have a full liquor license. Wine based cocktails and wines by the glass prove to be excellent distractions from the long waits. There is a white on offer from Rueda, Spain. It is here, planted at high elevations, that the acidic verdejo grape thrives. It is blended with a small amount of sauvignon blanc and the result is a very aromatic, bright, and mineral driven wine. Four thousand miles away from home it shines in the glass and makes for an utterly delightful way to start an evening.
The menu is dominantly Middle Eastern but shows influences from neighboring Mediterranean countries, particularly among the small plates. Patatas bravas ($7), a staple in Spanish tapas, are served beneath a dusting of za'atar and accompanied with a garlic aioli. Crispy cauliflower ($10) comes to us via the coastal city of Palermo in Sicily and is balanced here with currants, pine nuts, and lemon. Harissa oil, inspired by the North African chili sauce, adds a bright streak to the fried olives ($7) that come piled above organic labneh. The golden quinoa salad ($7) is a reflection of Balaboosta's roots and is the perfect harmony of all five basic tastes. It is incredibly light and refreshing and the addition of fried shallots adds a crunch that makes the palate dance the hora.
There is a genuine care behind this cooking, an effort put forth to make Balaboosta unique. Many restaurants feature fish roe, even fish roe sauce, though to my knowledge, no restaurant has made a wasabi infused flying fish roe and used it to dress shrimp that have been wrapped in delicate strands of phyllo dough before a quick visit to the fryer. And when grilled lamb chops ($28) come to table tucked under a blanket of Persian lime sauce you can only hope it's going to be as good as it looks. It is. The acid in the limes is the Jeremy Lin assist to Tyson Chandler's rich, charred lamb. It's good. Israeli good.
Perhaps the brick wall was painted white so as to act neutral, to better allow the bright food to color the room. Maybe it's a carryover from Israeli decor, where interiors are painted white to help cool down the rooms from the hot, Mediterranean climate. Whatever the case, I'm sure it was intentional. Nothing seems to be done randomly here. The staff is kind and precise. They do everything to make you feel as if you were in their home aside from saying, "Welcome to our home." Balaboosta is a restaurant that demands a return visit with elegant subtlety. The menu showcases a modern take on Middle Eastern food that is deeply rooted in tradition. The only thing it lacks is a bad choice.

Going out on a limb here, but if it's in the loft of a house, why not tap into the house wiring? I've done some math, I think it could work.
Have a little crank on the outside of the time capsule that turns a generator and charges a battery. Put a sign that reads "Please turn crank".
Seriously, though. It's going in an attic? Has anyone owned an attic for 100 years? Maybe I'm just American, but after 60 years or so, houses tend to get remodeled and/or demolished.

Paleilei has been offered.
"Mathis came from Austin LBJ a few years back and, while DeSoto has always had athlete like Von Miller and Cyrus Gray, he turned them into a football powerhouse," he said. "DeSoto now regularly makes deep runs in the Class 5A playoffs and is always a Top 10 team in the state. Kids that just played basketball or track before now want to come out and play football."
While the headline name for 2014 is most certainly St. Augustine running back Leonard Fournette, one of the state's most dynamic, change-of-pace backs appears to be East Ascension rising junior Sione Palelei.
At 5-foot-9, 180 pounds, Palelei broke onto the scene as a sophomore all-purpose back last fall, where he accounted for more than 700 yards and seven touchdowns.
At LSU's first summer session camp in June, Palelei worked out for running backs coach Frank Wilson and stood out from the bunch with his explosiveness in drills.
"I have offers from South Carolina, Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Florida, and Auburn," said Joe Blue. "I am also hearing from LSU, Penn State, Clemson, Georgia, North Carolina, and N.C. State. I think LSU and N.C. State are close to offering.''
Blue bench presses 315 pounds, sqauts 450, and runs the 40-yard dash in 4.6 seconds.
"I don't have an order, but my top three would be LSU, Georgia, and South Carolina."
"LSU told me that they were going to offer," he said. "I am also hearing from Georgia, South Carolina, N.C. State, North Carolina, and Tennessee."
"At LSU, I got a chance to build a good relationship with (assistant) coach (Steve) Kragthorpe. I got to talk to him a good bit and we got to hang out."
Bo Baldwin was having a great sophomore season, until he broke his collarbone. Now, the South Aiken High School (Aiken, S.C.) star is healthy and looking to have a big junior season.
Raymond Crochet 6'1"185 Salmen
It's a long way until 2/01/13 but right now the #1 Texas guy, Hoza Scott, is an A&M lean.
FYI, I've heard from one of our Texas recruiting gurus that he is telling people close to him that LSU has edged to the top.

Thread: Rock Advice - Geology help.
Rock Advice - Geology help.
Hello members,
I went to RAK (another emirate in UAE) where i spent a family weekend there. This area has it's fair share of mountains and i saw lots of rocks around. That got me thinking, are any of these safe to use in an aquarium? Some of the rocks i saw were really nice and, since its a mountianeous area, they came in many sizes.
I need to do some more research on the geology of this area, but from what i managed to pick up breifly yesterday using google was that there is alot of granite in the area. They also have limestone but i know what that looks like. These rocks have a 'metallic' look inside in places where there are chips and cracks.
I have picked up 3 that i found and would like to place inside my 60g tank.
This one is alot more orange than the camera picked up, and hasn't yet been cleaned. It's about the size of my cleched fist. I chose this one for it's colour.
This one is quite large, about the size of a rugby ball. It's got a chip at the top middle and it shows that 'metallic' shine i mentioned.
This is my favourite of the 3. Really love the lines that are showing. Due to it's colour i thought it might be limestone, but looking at the chips on top, it again has that 'metallic' shine.
Anybody know anything about Geology or have had experience in the past of using/collecting rocks from the wild rather than in the DIY stores.
I know that if you put calcereous (sp?) rocks in the aquarium, such as limestone, crushed corals, you will see an eventual rise in PH and hardness so you need to be careful abotu stocking lists. My tank is already stocked as a general community so i want to avoid any changes in PH or hardness compared to what it currently is at.
The first thing i plan to do is to scrub them to get the excess sand off them, then i will soak them for 24 hours. After that i will scrub them again and see if i'm still getting alot of sediment off them. If they do, then already i don't want these rocks as they would be calcereous. If they pass this test i will then splash them with white vinegar to see if they foam or froth. If they don't froth and nothing happens then i will do the next step. Lastly i will fill a bucket with water, leave over night, test for PH, KH and GH. Note. Put the rocks in the bucket, cover and leave for 1 week then test the water again. I'm hoping that the results of that test will match the results of the first test which would indicate they are safe to use in my 60g Community.
Am i doing this right? Am i wasting my time? Feedback is welcome.
Lastly i have another idea. Desert sand. There is loads of it here naturally. Is it aquarium safe? The sand in the remote parts are pure sand, no stones or vegetation mixed in. no construction anywhere near it. If it is safe i think it would make for a decent look with the stones i have picked.
Long post i know, but i want to get as much infor as i can and avoid any problems for my current fish.Fiiiiiiiiiiissssshhhhhh!
if you ask me all those shiny metallic specs can be quarts ie silica. it can dissolve in your water and might cause a diatom issue. but that would be a minimal reaction if you ask me... they look solid. i would test them with vinegar. if they fail that test out the window they go. if they pass it, i would give them a soak in a weak bleach solution for a day then soak them in very hot water ( boil if you want just be aware some rocks may or may not break in boiling water) i would change 100% of the water daily with more hot water for a few days. before adding them to your tank make sure there is no smell of chlorine on them, and if you have one a chlorine test... but it should be fine. i like the 3rd rock as well.
on a side note, make sure they arent any type of sand stone itll crumble easily. by the looks of it you dontKING OF THE GOLD BARBS RAWR!!!!
I wonder if i plant one of my tiger barbs would the demon seed grow to a full tree?
gotta love them bunnies!
I.R.S.: We've got what it takes to take what you've got!
Thanks for the tips.
In regards to the metallic shine, you know when you get a rock and smash it in half and you get that metallic look inside which is different to what it looks like on the surface. Thats what im referring to. This give me the impression that it's real good rock and nothing calcereous. But then again im not Geologist hence me posting here to find out more.
I will do the first test this week which is the soak, wash and scrub test to see if it corrodes or not.
Maybe i could trun it into a journal of sorts for the beneift of others?Fiiiiiiiiiiissssshhhhhh!
If you are scared that any part of the rock might be calcareous/able to leach harmful stuff into a tank, immerse the entire rocks in a vinegar/water solution and see whether any bubbles form. If they do, that rock has the potential to leach substances into the water.

If you put it in the water and it doesn't keep giving off dust, it is fine. I have more than 50 diffirent rocks in my pond I found myself, and after cleaning them, not 1 had a problem. If this doesn't happen, I don't see you having any problems, and there doesn't look like any sharp edges so you're good.
Good luck with the rocks and here's a bottom feeder tip for the rocks. If you clear out some hiding space around under the rock, bottom feeders will love it. This works as a hiding place for baby fish if you have non aggressive bottom feeders. I would love to see the rocks in your tank once done; they look awesome.
I think crazedmichael has a very good plant to test and prep those rocks. Extremely thorough.
Desert sand... no idea really. I'd expect so.

Hey guys thanks for your replies and advice.
Since i played football tonight i didnt have much time so all i managed to do is get them out of my car and gave them a good scrub. They are currently sitting in bucket and tomorrow night i will give them another scrub then leave overnight again. I will see how much sediment comes off them then. But now that they are 'clean' and wet, they look loads better! After 3 days of soaking i will then do the vinegar test. I like the idea of soaking them in vinegar water than dropping vingar on them as you would see bubbles more obvious. So thats the avenue i think i will be taking next.

@tall: I didn't mean stacking the rocks, I mean just one rock in an area, since the OP's rocks are a good size and kind of round on the edges. If the rocks aren't very tall and there is enough gravel, you can clear out a small area under it if the rock is large enough. As for making sure the rocks are water safe, I can't agree more, the safer the better. Good luck OP
I have drained the bucket and given them a good scrubbing in the shower and i have to say that very few amount of particles came off them. They look alot better now they are clean and wet
The smallest of the 3. Lots of colour.
This one looks similar to the one i have in the tank already, only more smooth.
And the nice one
Tonight when i get home i wil see if i have any vinegar in the cupboard and perform the test. Can i just check, do i just use ordinary white viniger. Such as Heinz, etc? Also if i do the fizz test by soaking, what is the vinegar:water ratio? 50:50?
Also, in the OP i asked about desert sand, any advice on that?
Last edited by CrazedMichael; 03-18-2013 at 06:32 AM.Fiiiiiiiiiiissssshhhhhh!
looks good. any vinegar works, you just need something acidic.
as for the sand idea. i guess you can try it. i bet its made from shattered pieces of those stones you found. so if those are safe then id think the sand is too. but thats just a guess. and youd want to boil the heck out of it just in case. finally something to watch out for with natural sand is silicone. specially in sand form it will in fact dissolve and cause a diatom issue.KING OF THE GOLD BARBS RAWR!!!!

Celebrate Week of the Young Child
Young children in Pine River-Backus deserve the best that we can give them.
The Week of the Young Child event on April 8 is a time to recognize the needs of young children and thank the adults involved in their education and care. Parents, teachers, caregivers and other adults play important roles in the lives of young children, and Week of the Young Child celebrates their efforts.
We can show support for early learning in our community by promoting early literacy programs, thanking teachers who care for our children, and working to ensure that our public policies support early learning for all young children.
Week of the Young Child is a time to remind us that Early Years are Learning Years.

The options for treating your testicular cancer depend on several factors, including the type and stage of cancer, your overall health, and your own preferences.
Operations used to treat testicular cancer include:
In cases of early-stage testicular cancer, surgery may be the only treatment needed.
If surgery is your only treatment for testicular cancer, your doctor will recommend a schedule of follow-up appointments. At these appointments — typically every few months for the first few years and then less frequently after that — you'll undergo blood tests, CT scans and other procedures to check for signs that your cancer has returned.
Radiation therapy uses high-powered energy beams, such as X-rays, to kill cancer cells. During radiation therapy, you're positioned on a table and a large machine moves around you, aiming the energy beams at precise points on your body.
Radiation therapy is a treatment option that's sometimes used in people who have the seminoma type of testicular cancer. Radiation therapy may be recommended after surgery to remove your testicle.
Side effects may include fatigue, as well as skin redness and irritation in your abdominal and groin areas. Radiation therapy is also likely to cause infertility. Talk to your doctor about your options for preserving your sperm before beginning radiation therapy.
Chemotherapy treatment uses drugs to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs travel throughout your body to kill cancer cells that may have migrated from the original tumor.
Chemotherapy may be your only treatment, or it may be recommended before or after lymph node removal surgery.
Side effects of chemotherapy depend on the drugs being used. Ask your doctor what to expect. Common side effects include fatigue, nausea, hair loss and an increased risk of infection. There are medications and treatments available that reduce some of the side effects of chemotherapy.
Chemotherapy is also likely to cause infertility, which can be permanent. Talk to your doctor about your options for preserving your sperm before beginning chemotherapy.

Their building on Washington Avenue has the sort of tight-packed feel you might expect in a dense urban neighborhood, even though this part of Washington is pretty residential. They barely gesture toward a dining room — four tables (one hosting a homework session by the family's son) in a spare space. If you are getting food to go, there is a leather bench and some plastic chairs on which to wait while you listen to the tapping and scratching of the cooks at their woks.
One sister, in her high school tennis team shirt, takes orders, while a five-year-old patrols behind the counter looking for ways to be helpful. At one point she scales a barstool her own height to gesture more effectively at a photo of a dish. She is the only person willing to hazard a guess at the provenance of China Taste's smiling mascot. "It's a potato!" she claims. Could be, but at a Chinese place? His shoe is untied, whatever he is.
As there should be at a place like this, there are over a hundred dishes. Many of them illuminate what Freud called "the narcissism of small differences" through the use of brown sauce with different combinations of spices, meats, and veggies.
But first it's worth trying China Taste's very good appetizers. The scallion pancake sizzles loud enough coming out of the oil that the whole waiting area looks up. It has a great crispy-chewy exterior with an underlayer of soft dough and ample scallion. You dip it into a terrific spicy-sour soy-based sauce. A splash of the same sauce perfected a bite of the house egg roll. The crisp exterior is surprisingly light, and the inside has that slight pinkish hue from the spices mixed into the ground pork. The chopped veggies inside still have a sweet crunch.
Sweetness and vegetal crunch are also the point of moo shi, served with thin pancakes and plum sauce to smear inside. The sauce provides the sweet, and you pile on top of it a crunchy and savory mix of cabbage and scallion, along with tender pieces of beef. We also tried the house special lo mein, with pork, chicken, and shrimp. It was the thin chewy strips of red-tipped pork that contrasted best with the soft noodles and onions, and next time I will probably get the pork alone.

You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!
I am currently inactive as I type this reply.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
I'm not on as much as I used to be because I really haven't found myself with much time to hop online when I get home. I used to jump on more frequently during the day while taking a break at work, but they started to monitor our internet activity a little more closely. So, I don't really have the occasion to post much. I try to from time to time.
What do you consider active? No doubt there is less going on, but a lack of movies coming out will do that imho.
I'm like the Star Wars brand in 1992... present, but not prolific.
I check in frequently and post occasionally. You must admit, people and their priorities have changed over the years: members have graduated from high school or college; started careers and families. Look at our "Joined dates". A good many of us have been here over a decade!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
I have never joined nor posted on this website.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
I don't think we have anything that lists the activity of users that way.
Hasbro is killing us though, I think. Not just SSG, the budget collecting community. The prices going up, quality going down, quantity going down, just very difficult to drum up as much excitement to carry people back to the brand.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
I still check things out here about 3-4 times a day to see if there's any interesting news. I haven't had much to post about, my area hasn't seen any vintage wave past the TPM/ROTJ Deleted Scenes, and the latter only seemed to show up when Wal-Mart didn't have them in the system. I haven't been keeping track of how many waves of the non-vintage figures there have been, but nothing new has been showing up regardless so they're suffering too.
Pretty much looks like the last SW items I'll be picking up this year will be the TRU Speederbike and the K-Mart 2-packs... although I have to wait until next month or so before looking into buying them. Had to deal with moving over the last 4 months, and am still recovering.
I feel as though the SW line is close to coming to an end unless Hasbro does some dramatic overhauling.

Judy Kleinberg'w CHILLING statements!!!
Original post made by James, Greenmeadow, on Aug 14, 2006
But here comes one of our own, Judy Kleinberg, to threaten us by turning our own comments, on public forums (or local coffee houses) over to the police. Unbelievable!!!
Here is her quote from the 8/13 PADN (related to the recent crime wave in PA, with racial description issues included):
"We need to clamp down before someone gets the wrong idea", said Kleinberg, who has forwarded some of the more "disturbing" messages she has come across to the Police Department.
"I'm not here to be an ethics cop, but it's wrong to be putting these statements out there", she said. "There's no purpose. To me, it's morally unethical and dangerous."
In other words, Judy thinks any statements that are not "morally ethical" (to her), should be forwarded to the cops. Should we now be thinking that the local police will be demanding access to PADN or Weekly computers, in order to identify those who disagree with Judy?
Forget the Patriot Act, we have much more serious issues on the local home front.
a resident of Barron Park
on Aug 14, 2006 at 5:03 pm
I think that you're misinterpreting what Mayor Judy meant. My take on her statement is that she shared the concerns of those who wrote the messages and that she was psssing their comments on to the police -- not "reporting them" to the police.
a resident of Barron Park
on Aug 14, 2006 at 5:06 pm
Pardon me for not reading carefully. I agree with you James.
a resident of College Terrace
on Aug 15, 2006 at 8:08 am
Why is anyone surprised by this. The members of the PA City Council have been long time advocates of stifling free speech--one cannot forget Jim Birch's oppressive tenure as mayor.
The members of the PA city council only wantto hear speech that is agreeable to them--anything else is out of line.
a resident of Downtown North
on Aug 15, 2006 at 1:56 pm
While I disagreed with Jim Birch on many issues, the person he asked to "tone it down" was abusing free speech rights. That person used innuendo and falsehoods to make really insulting attacks on various persons in and out of public office. The speaker that Birch tried to quiet down also happened to be an attorney (how he ever passed the bar is beyond me), and knew just what he was doing as he insulted one person after another. Thank goodness that speaker has pretty much disappeared from public view. I hear he's lately been in Berkeley, on to another "cause" that designed to benefit his self-image as professional provocateur. Good riddance!
a resident of College Terrace
on Aug 16, 2006 at 6:31 am
WHile I think I know the incident you are referring to, I was referring to a general attitude by Jim Birch of trying to stifle criticism--he did it with David Packard, the Unions and other people and groups.
By the way, I also disagree with you about the incident you mentioned.
a resident of Old Palo Alto
on Aug 17, 2006 at 2:24 pm
So, some Palo Alto residents, understandably upset and fearful about the rise in crime in our city, make suggestions and comments on discussion boards. Some of these comments - made by fearful residents after all, like the one proposing ID checks in parks, are unworkable and maybe insensitive.
The mayor might have taken this as an opportunity to reassure residents that the city is doing something to effectively combat the crime threats, and to calm worried residents. Instead, she chooses moral grandstanding and the mildly authoritian tactic of turning the comments of people with whom she disagrees over to our already obviously overburdened police department.
So instead of finding the criminals terrorizing our neighborhoods, the police are spending part of their time investigating the thought crimes of the mayor's critics.
To be sure, it is distressing, if not totally unexpected, to think we might have a few closet racists among our presumably enlightened citizenry. But it is downright repulsive - 'chilling' as James says - to find that our mayor is an out-in-the-open authoritian censor.
It's no wonder we find so many comments on these forums posted anonymously or by first name only. Actions like Kleinberg's only serve to suppress discussion and dialogue in our community. She should be ashamed of herself.
(I assume the police know where to find me if they want to talk to me about this post.)
a resident of Downtown North
on Aug 17, 2006 at 3:56 pm
This is really a stretch. It's full of all kinds of illogical extentions and beliefs that simply don't hold water. "authoritarian censor"? ""thought crimes"?
And I could say back to you, "paranoia".
I, for one, am happy about the fact that any local leader has the courage and leadership to say that certain kinds of speech - although acceptable within the tenets of free speech rights - are downright distateful, and out of bounds relative to community standards. Our mayor deserves a pat on the back.
Hate speech, or speech that incites hate speech, should be challenged, always.
a resident of Greenmeadow
on Aug 17, 2006 at 4:56 pm
Danielle: Call any of us "paranoid", if you will. That is a standard retort from those who don't want a rational dsicussion.
I have not seen any "hate speech", but even so, it is NOT illegal, and it should NOT be reported to the police by the mayor of this city. What are the police to do with the mayor's charges? Look for names, tap phones, run patrols... all without probable cause? Would they have warrants?
I oppose the Patriot Act and the NSA abuses - now we have much larger issues here at home.
Danielle, please let us know what you mean. Should we people of Palo Alto be frightened to say what we mean?
Why not WELCOME all comments, as long as they are legal (and the vast majority free speech is legal).
Actually, this is getting spooky!
a resident of Old Palo Alto
on Aug 18, 2006 at 2:17 pm
There is a lot of speech on these comment boards that I find distasteful. No one says that the mayor, or any other citizen, can't counter such speech with contrary comments or speeech of her own.
But if you think it's not at least a little scary when the mayor turns over people whose speech she doesn't like to the police department, then you're really not paying attention.
By the way, I notice you're one of those who posts without giving a full name. Is there a reason you're afraid of identifying yourself?

she is also taken more than a bit out of context.

on Aug 21, 2006 at 6:01 pm
Care to explain about "out of context"?
I started this thread, because I saw a real threat. I still do.
Please explain what was taken out of context. Be specific.
a resident of Crescent Park
on Aug 21, 2006 at 6:55 pm
The specific comments our Mayor were concerned about pertained to generalizing the behavior of a few to apply to an entire race and using race to screen for criminal behavior. The racial breakdown of those caught so far "red handed" have been from every race, including the race of the original commenter.
I applaud the Mayor for standing against racial stereotyping.
a resident of Greenmeadow
on Aug 21, 2006 at 7:29 pm
Your's is a reasonable response to what you have heard, from your point of view. But what is the Mayor of this town doing by turning over dissenting views to the police?
Does this not concern you?
a resident of Midtown

"We need to clamp down before someone gets the wrong idea", said Kleinberg, who has forwarded some of the more "disturbing" messages she has come across to the Police Department"
Palo Alto, bastion of political correctness.
a resident of Midtown
on Aug 25, 2006 at 5:15 pm
Get your facts straight! This "quote" is totally out of context (did you get it from the daily rag?). I heard her speak and she said we needed to clamp down on the crime, not free speech. And the messages (she said only two) were forwarded to the police chief to get her advice about how to respond about messages on group listserves that were pinning the crime on racial groups, not to "inform" on anyone or interfere with anyone's free speech.
Stop being so inflammatory and distorting what the mayor did. We have real problems in this town and the mayor's call for racial tolerance and civility is not one of them -- on the contrary, it's refreshing.
a resident of Greenmeadow
on Aug 25, 2006 at 7:07 pm
What "crime' are you talking about?
If the Mayor is reporting something to the police, is it a "crime' that they are not already aware of?
To ascribe a majority of crimes, whatever they may be, to a racial grouping is NOT a crime.
Free speech is only a "crime", under very rare circumstances.
Please explain, Paul.
a resident of Old Palo Alto
on Aug 25, 2006 at 8:39 pm
I don't think Paul is distorting what the mayor said. The Daily News may be distorting what the mayor said, but Paul is responding appropriately to what the Daily News reported, and he quotes their story accurately.
One would think that the Mayor would protest a story that falsely portrays her as a censor. And the Daily News quite clearly does that. So far, the Mayor hasn't demanded a retraction, and the Daily News hasn't issued one.
The Mayor reads these forums. Maybe it's time for her to make her own case. She probably knows that silence sometimes speakes louder than words.
a resident of Barron Park

Kleinberg's husband is a judge who is well known for stifling free speech. His most recent stunt was to approve Apple Computer's request to seize the servers and electronic data of bloggers who wrote about products that the company didn't want disclosed. The plan was to have law enforcement physically remove computers from the homes and businesses of those targetted by Apple. Thankfully an appeals court overturned the decision and restored a little bit of the First Amendment to the blogosphere. He should have been impeached from the bench for that one.
a resident of Midtown
on Aug 30, 2006 at 8:39 pm
If the proscription on generalization and profiling were absolute then discourse would be impossible. It is legitimate to note that the racial makeup of arrested are roughly congruent to the population but irrelevant except when someone is proposing actually punitive policing. Hypersensitivity of expression makes true discussion impossible. Telling an injured party he is more wrong for insensitively descibing the injuring party than that party was to injure is just plain stupid - and consistent with public PC policy.
a resident of University South
on Sep 2, 2006 at 12:26 am
What do you want to bet that Kleinberg posted on this thread under the name "Paul"? Can you just hear her saying, in her nasaly Hillary Clintonesque voice "Did you get it from the daily rag?" I mean who calls the Daily News "the daily rag" except the politicans who are savaged by it every day? And the rest of "Paul's" defense of Kleinberg felt a bit too specific -- like how would he know how many emails Kleinberg gave the police chief?

Pablo PICASSO
Pablo Ruiz Picasso (b Málaga, Spain, 25 October 1881 – d Mougins, France, 8 April 1973) initially was taught by his father at the School of Fine Arts in Málaga. Later he studied at the School of Fine Arts in La Coruña, in Barcelona, and the Royal Academy of San Fernando. During his long career Picasso's style often changed dramatically—Blue period (1901–04); Rose period (1904–06); Primitive period (1907–09); Analytic Cubism (1909– 12); Synthetic Cubism (1912–19); Neoclassical period (1920s); Surrealist period (1930s).
Picasso was introduced to Diaghilev by Jean Cocteau in 1916, leading to his first ballet commission, for Parade (1917). Picasso further immersed himself in the world of the Ballets Russes by marrying one of the principal dancers, Olga Khokhlova. Over the years he had several long relationships, and married a second time in 1961. Picasso was also commissioned to work on designs for Le Tricorne (1919), Pulcinella (1920)—for which he made three different designs—and Cuadro Flamenco (1921). His sketches of many Ballets Russes members, including choreographers, dancers and Diaghilev, were published in a number of souvenir programs.
In 1924 he worked on a production of the ballet Mercure at the Théâtre de la Cigale for Comte Etienne de Beaumont's Soirées de Paris. Picasso's last official design role for the Ballets Russes was the curtain for Le Train bleu (1924), the gouache for which he painted two years earlier. In 1946, Picasso returned to theatre work with another curtain design, this time for Le Rendez-vous for the Ballets des Champs-Elysées.

These bran muffins bake up moist and chewy. They're so good that my in-laws, Reed and Nancy, make a batch every couple of days for snacking. This is another recipe that shows how buttermilk works to tenderize and lighten many baked goods. Bran retains much of its natural oil and can quickly turn rancid, so always store it in the refrigerator or freezer. I like to use unprocessed sugar crystals (don't confuse this with brown sugar) to complement the bran's whole grain taste. Each muffin has over 2 grams of fiber.
Leave a Review
Excellent and easily improved/modified by adding spices and dried fruit. This has become a lunch box staple. They freeze well too.
I've made these muffins twice, exactly according to the directions and they are soft, moist, not too sweet and delicious. The second time I did add 1/2 teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg, which made them even better. Wonderful!
If you don't have applesauce, add a mashed ripe banana. I also like to add a handfull of dried fruit, like cranberries or dates or raisins or apricots. Read More
I love the texture of these muffins! Fluffy and delicious, both right after baking and the following day as well. I used whole wheat white flour, and spiced them up with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Next time I will add more of the spices, and maybe some ginger as well. I also put five cinnamon chips on the top of each one before baking. They did puff up nicely, too. A great healthy breakfast muffin, nice and light.
My favorite bran muffin ever and I can't believe it's low fat. I just made a few changes: used half buttermilk, half plain lowfat yogurt (because I ran out of buttermilk), used 2 Tbsp oil instead of 1.5, added 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1/8 tsp nutmeg, used dark brown sugar instead of raw, and added 3/4 cup raisins. I think the sugar substitution may have made the most difference; most bran muffins call for molasses and dark brown sugar contains more molasses, which I think contributes to the "classic bran muffin" flavor.
Very moist...added chopped dates and toasted pecans and came out delicious. A favorite in our house.
Very good. Can add some dried fruit and still great
These muffins were quick and easy to make... coming out of the oven looking perfect. I like that they are healthy, as I usually opt for the healthy version of foods. However I found the taste to be very mild and underwhelming. There was a lack of flavor, and the muffins sat for days uneaten by members of the household.
Yum! Used oat bran and added a mashed banana. Didn't add the applesauce. My husband and I almost ate the entire batch for breakfast! Will definitely make again.
I've made this recipe twice now. The first time, they were by far and away the best bran muffins I've ever made. This is not saying a lot as far as bran muffins go, but they were still quite good. The second time I made them, I beefed up the vanilla and added more cinnamon, and they were excellent. This recipe requires very little tweaking to be wonderful and is good on its own. A perfect breakfast food.

Well, I hit the grape orchard today, and it was a dud. I sat in 30 degree temps with a rain/snow mix till 10:00. I was soaked and miserable.
That's gonna be it for me for fall birds. I have a meeting to attend this weekend, I have youth weekend for deer with my son next w/e, then muzzleloader starts.
I gave it a good shot, but it just did'nt work out.
Just wait till spring!
