Glenn Ford: Undercover Crimes DVD
The first film to pair dynamic screen duo Glenn Ford and Rita Hayworth, this movie marked a turning point in both their careers from B films to higher-production features. Based on the French film Gribouille (1937), this offbeat comedy/drama tells the tale of a middle-aged Parisian (Brian Aherne) who reports for jury duty and ends up bringing the defendant (Hayworth) home to his family after she is acquitted of a charge of murdering her lover. Anything but innocent, she soon has the mans son (Ford) committing petty crimes to fund their romantic escape.
Fresh from his breakthrough role in Gilda (1946) Ford delivers another great performance as a tough guy undone by a woman. Femme fatale Paula (Janice Carter) sees a fall guy in Mike Lambert (Ford), who happens to look a lot like her boyfriend Steve (Barry Sullivan) and is prone to blackouts when drinking. With a screenplay by Ben Maddow (The Asphalt Jungle, 1950) and cinematography by Academy Award® winner Burnett Guffey (Bonnie and Clyde, 1967), this a tense and atmospheric film noir in the mold of The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946).
Ford stars as an investigator for the Treasury Department who helps bring down a mobster in this superb crime thriller by B crime movie master Joseph H. Lewis (Gun Crazy, 1950). Ford modeled his character on real-life Agent Frank J. Wilson and supporting actor Ralph Volkie based his ruthless gangster on Al Capone, who was finally brought to justice by Wilson and his fellow number crunchers at the Bureau of Internal Revenue. The strong supporting cast includes Nina Foch (An American in Paris, 1951) and James Whitmore (The Asphalt Jungle, 1950) in his movie debut.
Showcasing his ability to play both tough noir heroes and likeable comedy leads, Ford carries this uncommon blend of whimsical comedy and hard-boiled crime thriller that was the work of two directors (Gordon Douglas of 1968s The Detective and Henry Levin of 1963s Come Fly with Me) and two cinematographers (Charles Lawton Jr., 1947s The Lady from Shanghai, and Joseph Walker, 1946s Its a Wonderful Life). Ford is WWII veteran Joe Miracle, who is torn between evening the score with a mobster (Roman Bohnen) who has taken his nightclub and helping a social worker who has stolen his heart (Evelyn Keyes, in her sixth and final film with Ford).
Sentenced to prison for an accidental killing, Joe Hufford (Ford) is given a second chance at life by a sympathetic warden (Broderick Crawford) and a chance at love by the wardens daughter (Dorothy Malone) in this adaptation of the 1929 play The Criminal Code by Pulitzer Prize winner Martin Flavin. Thanks to director Henry Levin (Journey to the Center of the Earth, 1959) and, especially, Academy Award® winning cinematographer Burnett Guffey (All the Kings Men, 1949), CONVICTED is ripe with atmosphere and carries the shadowy imprint of film noir.
One of the most versatile and reliable leading men of the studio era, Ford had a particular talent for crime picturesplaying both sides of the law! Its non-stop actionmuch of it under the cover of nightin this special collection of Glenn Ford crime classics, directed by such masters of the genre as Charles Vidor (Gilda, 1946) and Joseph H. Lewis (Gun Crazy, 1950).

Comments about this product:
This is an amazing box set for the Glenn Ford fans. I have been waiting YEARS for someone to put out some of his smaller films. Thanks to TCM and Sony, we have these five films here. The five are in great condition! Cannot get over the detail in the picture. Grain is still intact (as it should be) but never obtrusive. Each film is on its own disc with lobby cards, posters and other promotional items for each film. Each film is enjoyable on its own. The tough crime dramas.
Very glad that Sony restored these films to look immaculate. I do not believe any of these were available on home video (DVD) before. Here they are in one great package!! Hope there is a volume two coming out soon. Glenn Ford is such an underrated star that deserves the attention he got from this collection. Bravo!!
Comments about this product:
'Mr. Soft Touch' is among the most significant American films that essentially no one seems to praise or even pay some attention to. I have been waiting for decades for someone to release the film on some home video format, ANY home video format, and finally, after thirty-some years, someone finally is doing so - TCM. I cannot thank TCM enough. I thought I would not live to see the day. Now if only the folks at TCM could perhaps do something also about giving Robert Montgomery's 'Ride the Pink Horse' a DVD release, or even better giving both films a Blu-ray release, all prayers relevant to this particular matter would be answered.

This might be better on the Audi side but will try here first, question is that I need to know the make, model and year of a 24mm MC from an Audi that does not use anti-lock . And I'm guessing at the size of the master cylinder for my brake project that is getting done in two stages (front then rear)
What I have is Nissan 300ZX twin turbo front calipers mounted. (see pic)
Removed the Brake booster so I'll be running dirrect pedal to MC
1st Stage is sizing the MC for just the fronts
2nd will be for the fronts then the rear (GTI or Scirocco rear brake assemblies added later)
Any info on something done simular would be greatly appreciated.
cheers all.
Oh, added some pics on my progress as however this turns out good/bad.... to answer a question that may come up, I need the engine bay room for my engine install project thus removing brake booster and battery
cut the MC side for mounting studs only
cut the firewall side for the mounting plate
Remove the studs, the base of the studs need to be ground (see below)
discard everything but be sure to keep the shaft/spring/washer and part of the rubber seal(not shown)[IMG][/IMG]
The shaft needed[IMG][/IMG]
the MC mounting plate completed, use the circular plate (above pic) with the 2 studs removed as a guide when drilling into the new MC base plate, grind the two loose stud backings so it sits flush in the groove and tack weld.[IMG][/IMG]
better angle of the MC mounting side[IMG][/IMG]
last angle of completed base [IMG][/IMG]
This is as far as I've gotten, if need be I can continue on pics and progress but not sure if this has been posted before... and my main question on MC sizing

In the April issue of WDYTYA magazine there is a very useful article about how to get the best out of www.familysearch.org. It is written by Sharon Hintz who is the director of the London Family History Centre. Sharon is an excellent genealogist who really knows her subject.
One of the items in the article caught my eye because I had used this dataset, but couldn't seem to find it later on the website. It was Boyd's Inhabitants of London and I had found it had one or two entries for my Pottinger family. I have to admit I hadn't spent much time looking on the site and had put it in the "must get back and search for this properly" bin !!
Anyway below is the link for that dataset, but even if that doesn't interest you take a look at all the other datasets on offer. There are items from all round the world, but Surrey Visitations, info on Eaton Bray, Bedfordshire & Royal and Noble Houses with Colonial American Connections caught my eye.
I'm off to have a happy few hours searching round this part of the Familysearch site as soon as I have finished this post!!

I have been steadily building my Fett outfit towards a transition outfit based in between ESB and ROTJ. This is because I have always hated the ESB flame thrower. However, last night I searched the deepest recesses of my being and soul and have decided that the ESB flamer really isn't that bad after all and that i could even come to like it
So does anybody have any good pics of the original ESB flame thrower that I could look at please.
All responces will be eagerly accepted.
Thanks ppl.

Hello and welcome to the site! Enjoy.
Hi I'm Chris, I'm 25 spend my days with my two kids, wife, working with cars, and playing with guns. Just a brokedick asst manager at the local O'reilly auto parts awaiting my own store to be built later next year. Always loved guns since I was young. Haven't had to many though. At the moment all I have is my marlin 22 that my grandfather gave me. FedEx is showing My Kimber solo to be in Memphis, tn. I just sold the RIA 1911 compact 3.5 bull barrel that made me fall in love with the 1911.
Here is my youngest and I after his first day at daycare
And here's the photo from my gunbroker auction

Maui History
Legends say the demigod Maui pulled the Hawaiian Islands from the sea and lassoed the sun atop Haleakala, the island's highest peak. The island of Maui was named after this mythological being, perhaps because the shape of the island is said to resemble his head and body.
King Piilani was the first ruler to unite all of Maui under a single family of alii (royalty) in the early 15th century. In 1790, King Kamehameha I defeated Kahekili, Maui's last king, after a fierce battle in the iconic Iao Valley. Kamehameha took control of Maui and made Lahaina the new capital of the unified Hawaiian Kingdom. For nearly five decades, Lahaina served as the center of government for Hawaii. Simultaneously, the town experienced a surge in its whaling industry. At the height of the whaling era (1840-1865) as many as 500 ships anchored in Lahaina's port.
Maui's first sugar mill began operations in 1828. As the sugar industry in the islands grew, an influx of plantation workers from China, Japan, Puerto Rico, Korea, the Philippines, Portugal and Europe arrived in Hawaii. These immigrants became the foundation of the multi-ethnic culture of Hawaii today. You can experience these influences at places like the Lahaina Jodo Mission and in the fusion of flavors found in Hawaii Regional Cuisine.
The Lahaina Historic Trail and other notable attractions allow you to explore Maui's rich past today, adding a fascinating new dimension to your visit.

WATCH: Michelle Obama joins Jimmy Fallon and Will Ferrell in drag for 'Ew!'
Posted Friday, February 21st 2014 @ 11am by Gossip Cop
Michelle Obama joined Jimmy Fallon and Will Ferrell (both in drag as teenage girls) for a hilarious edition of "Ew!" on Thursday's "Tonight Show."
The First Lady played it straight, encouraging "Sara" and "Stacy" to make healthy choices.
It's definitely worth watching.
Check out the video below!


text: Can anyone recommend a good a good blog interface? I am working on a website for my barn. The assistant trainer would like to incorporate a blog feature that she can update with horse show results, congrats to people who buy a new horse, and stuff like that. I came into this in the middle, and am just helping out of the goodness of my sweet little heart. The site is in html (which I would never have chosen had I been the one to start on it). We would like to be able to have the blog formatted to match the rest of the site. I told the people at my office that I would ask the people on my Figure Skating site.........cause I was sure they would know! Thanks in advance.

The University of Colorado at Boulder will offer a series of free events on campus Sept. 7-9 aimed at suicide awareness and prevention.
The series, including presentations, an information table and a theatrical performance, coincides with the 36th annual National Suicide Prevention Week Sept. 5-11 and will bring mental health resources and tips to the forefront of the campus community.
"Suicide awareness events at the beginning of the school year are a good reminder that we need to look out for each other and take care of one another," said Amy Robertson, CU-Boulder's suicide prevention coordinator. "We want people in the campus community to be fearless about asking for help or helping other campus community members."
Robertson will give a presentation on the Question, Persuade, Refer, or QPR technique on Tuesday, Sept. 7, from noon to 1 p.m. in room 325 of the University Memorial Center. QPR teaches skills to use in suicidal crises, emphasizing early recognition of warning signs, intervention and professional assessment in saving lives.
CU-Boulder's Counseling and Psychological Services also will present "LGBT Youth and Suicide: Myths and Realities" on Wednesday, Sept. 8, from 12:15 to 1:15 p.m. in UMC room 425.
A mental health resource table with free cookies will be located on the terrace outside the northeast doors to the UMC from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 9.
The Interactive Theater Project will present a performance titled "Too Afraid to Ask" on Thursday, Sept. 9, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Dennis Small Cultural Center in UMC room 457.
Following the campus events and National Suicide Prevention Week, CU-Boulder will co-sponsor a candlelight vigil called HOPE Lights the Night: Remembering and Honoring Those Lost to Us by Suicide. The event will take place Thursday, Sept. 16, at 6:30 p.m. at the Boulder Band Shell, located at Broadway and Canyon Boulevard, and is hosted by the Hope Coalition of Boulder County.

KnollTextile's inaugural 2013 collection features three original, large-scale upholstery designs inspired by the Malaysian word for and practice of ikat, which is the process of binding, dying, and weaving together sections of yarn. KnollTextile's creative director Dorothy Cosonas took the process one step further by combining the concept of ikat with Japanese textile patterns. The three designs—Ikat Square, Ikat Stripe, and Origins—join the rest of the new Elements line, which uses a range of hues and tones for a more subtle effect.

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. - After showing glimpses of its potential over the first four games of the 2013 season, the Marist women's lacrosse team was firing on all cylinders in its road game at Binghamton on Wednesday afternoon. The Red Foxes earned their first win with an 11-6 victory over the Bearcats. A 6-2 halftime advantage would be all that Marist would need on their way to the wire-to-wire win. Sophomore Kirsten Viscount (Smithtown, N.Y.) led all scorers with four points with two goals and two assists; in total five Red Foxes had two goals.
Both offenses on Wednesday started slowly as neither team broke through onto the scoreboard for nearly 10 minutes. Binghamton had the first opportunity when Katherine Hunsberger fired a free-position shot on goal only to be denied by senior goalie Ashley Casiano (South Windsor, Conn.).
Sophomore Lexi Brannigan (Loudonville, N.Y.) netted the game's first goal with an unassisted marker at 20:26.
Back-to-back goals by junior Jamie Romano (Kings Park, N.Y.) and senior Ashley Miller (Montville, N.J.) at 18:36 and 17:48 sprung the Red Foxes out to a 3-0 lead.
Two consecutive goals by the Bearcats tightened the game back up before Marist would close out the half on another 3-0 run.
Junior Tierney Larson (Fairfield, Conn.) found sophomore Sabrina Mattera (Wantagh, N.Y.) for the team's first goal at 6:21. Viscount had her hand the final two scores of the half as she assisted Amanda Tuck (Mamaroneck, N.Y.) at 4:15 and notched an unassisted goal with just 11 seconds on clock.
Up 6-2, Marist saw Binghamton net its first goal of the second period 2:35 in as Hunsberger connected on a free-position shot.
Tuck's second goal of the game at 24:11 would put the Red Foxes back in front by four.
Their lead would shrink down to two less than five minutes later when Binghamton registered back-to-back goals at 20:16 and 19:24.
Four straight goals by Marist would add insurance as it grew its lead to 11-5 with 3:15 left in regulation. Miller started the scoring at 12:48 with an unassisted tally. After assisting Mattera's marker at 12:27, Viscount would notch her second goal and fourth point of the afternoon at 8:06. Brannigan finished the scoring streak at 3:15.
A late Bearcat goal at 2:15 made the final score 11-6.
For the game, Marist outshot Binghamton 21-16 with a 17-12 advantage in shots on goal. The Red Foxes also held advantages in ground balls 11-8, draw controls 10-9 and caused turnovers 8-2.
In goal, Casiano finished with six saves as she earned her 14th career victory.
With the win, Marist improves to 6-1 all-time versus Binghamton.
The Red Foxes will next be in action on Wednesday, March 13 at home versus nationally ranked Stony Brook. The opening draw between the teams is slated for 4 p.m.


text: You can listen to it here: Woman's World What do you think? It's produced (and co-written) by Paul Oakenfold who I believe is one of the world's most famous DJ's (and producer). Some comments I read on wikipedia: And for fun, I added a Cher poll to this thread. I was going to do a "what's your favourite Cher song", but that'd be too obvious. So I looked over her last ten albums or so and found some tracks that were never released as singles ("Perfection" might have been a single in Europe??) - all of which I happen to LOVE! So maybe instead of this poll being a "what's your favourite non-single of Cher's", I should make the poll question, "what's your favourite Cher song of PeterG's that was never released as a single"? Anyway, here are links to all of the songs listed in the poll, I love them all so if you don't know any of them, be sure to listen all twelve!!!

I just wanted to note the impact that you guys have made on my personal life. Alot of you may not understand the life of a Marine, or may have not given it any thought before. I go to work on base every day, and I do what I'm told to do all day long, from the time that I get there, to the time that I'm told to go home, and reminded to be 15 minutes early the next day. I delegate smaller duties to the junior Marines beneath me, but for the most part, I'm just following orders. I'm up at 5:45 in the morning, so I can have enough time to slug down some coffee and make it to work a little extra early. When I get there, there is no such thing as "busy work". There's WORK. And I work all day.
A Marine's personal life is secondary to his professional life, because a Marine is a Marine 24 hours a day. Before I met you guys, I came home at the end of the day, and did whatever came to mind to pass the time before I went to bed. Usually nothing consequential... a PS2 game, browsing the internet, experimenting in the kitchen, reading one of my many Stephen King or Star Wars: NJO books. I realized today, after a little over a month with you guys, that my afternoons are not "busy work" anymore. Your costume may be just a hobby to you, but I've realized that mine is much more to me. You guys have given me something to completely focus all of my creative juices on, new things to learn, a ton of goals to work toward. My wife has said that I seem to have more energy lately, that I'm not so tired when I get home from work anymore, because I'm looking forward to working on my project, posting new pictures and updates, reading about other member's projects, reading advice offered to me, offering advice that I myself have only just learned. A month ago, I had never touched bondo or fiberglass. I never would have imagined in my life that plastic For Sale signs could be turned into something so freaking cool as a Mandalorian helmet with a little cutting and some superglue.
I offer thanks to every one of you who have helped change my life. You guys are the best.
Cheers to all, and Merry Christmas.

The ongoing violent actions of Somalia pirates is a symbol of the growing disintegration of stability in the world. The word "pirate" is for most people something associated with a past era that lives on mainly in motion pictures. However, recent ship seizures by Somalia pirates have created a new threat to world stability since their seizure of ships threatens to raise cost of oil and impact world economies. As world powers rushed ships to the troubled waters, hundreds of armed pirates entered the area prepared to resist any armed attack on those holding ships for ransom. Well armed Islamic forces are in the area and they could readily wipe out the pirates, but they apparently are turning away from action since it please their leaders to see western nations upset and confused.
The Islamist Shebab group which controls a large area of Somalia has repeatedly insisted it opposes all forms of piracy since they violate the Muslim religion. According to reports, Islamic soldiers are presently in the same area as the pirates but are not taking any action as western nations negotiate with the modern cut throats. Perhaps, it is time for an multinational armed force to take over the pirate area. Of course, it will never happen.

I'm not plugging this guy since I don't know him or anything plus I know it's a rule that you can't post other people's ebay auctions on this forum so if you're interested let me know.

I saw an article the other day that says that one piece swim suits are going to overtake the popularity of bikinis in the next few years. Agree or disagree?
54 Comments on "Your Turn"
Bikini girl here it keeps me motivated to stay in shape and I hate having all that wet material on me when you wear a one piece and it sucks to go pee in a one piece too
Am I the only gross one who figured if you have to pee that bad while wearing a one piece, you can always run into the water? Not while in a pool, but a beach is another story.
I wear whatever I don't feel fat in. Usually a two piece with some belly coverage if needed.
The baby boomers probably feel that the one piece gives good coverage. A lot of trends follow the baby boomers
I've always worn one pieces as well. I've just never wanted to lay out in the equivalent of a bra and underwear. I love Modcloth for sexy, retro ones. And I slather my virgin skin with SPF 70 so I don't tan or get wrinkles 😉
I hope so! After 3 pregnancies, one of those bearing twins, this momma is NEVER getting into a 2 piece again! Now if only the little skirt suits would become the rage 😉
Bikinis all the way, traditional triangle top for me.
Thanks for the websites flirtychick and condolences for your grandpa 🙁
god i hope so. 9 out of 10 people should not be wearing bikini's. as a kindness to the world, fashion should go in the direction of the 1 piece.
Always wore bikinis. But, if the swelling does not do down around my incision site I may be forced to wear a one piece. That's irony for you, I lose 15 lb after surguery and now I got a pooch:(
Except for the bathroom thing, i like one piece better. I like the beach, like to swim,, walk around- and I dont want to worry the whole time that something might get exposed. I want to be comfy. However there are some 2 pcs that give alot of coverage too
Sure, why not? Everything changes over time.
I have a navy blue and white polka dot pin up one piece…AND I LOVE IT.
"DAMNNNN that's sexy." – the boy.
I think my one pice is way sexier than wearing something unflattering. I found a really cute pin -up style suit with ruching and cute details, I get plenty of compliments on it.
It's not as sexy as my 17 year old self in a 2 piece, but if we are talking about my 35 year old self it's much better.
Dress for the body you have, not the body you want!
Ladies, there are some awesome websites featuring women of all sizes wearing gorgeous one pieces and bikinis. It can be done and you can look super fabulous. Google Venus swimwear, Lehona swimwear (www.lehona.com.br. I'd do more but I'm about to board a plane overseas to attend grandpa's funeral. Heartbroken right now. Google plus size and gorgeous swimsuits. You can get some ideas that way.
One-pieces now, (I'm 50).
I wore bikinis before I had kids, because I'm tall, and it was a real problem to find one that was long enough in the torso. Plus, the one-pieces are so much more stylish now.
My figure's not that bad, but I've had 3 kids and I have some stretch marks that I don't want anyone seeing, plus your skin isn't as tight as it is when you are 25.
Yes, though, I think the one-pieces are really nice. Teenagers will always wear bikinis though, I think.
I'm a fan of the one piece.. They can be very sexy! I have stretch marks below my belly button that all the crunches in the world can't hide so I've found the perfect one piece.. It's UV Friendly no line swimsuits.. Sun goes right through the material so no tan lines at all!
Not if Mr. Disco has his way.
@LuluG, tankini's all the way, I embraced them years ago and have not looked back. Comfort of a two piece, coverage of a 1 piece, plus if you just have black, brown and navy bottoms, you can switch up your look all the time with just a new top. What a random your turn question though!
Not happening
You can't pee in a one piece. Really, that is a reason for not wearing one? If a fish can pee in the ocean, so can you. Urine is non-toxic believe it or not. But, don't pee in the pool. ewww.
I prefer tankinis. They are the best. Hides my pouch, and I can lift the shirt up and still tan my midsection. Problem solved.
@Karen I started swimming year round when I was 6 and I don't think I figured that one out until I was probably 10, there should be an instruction guide on the tags. Soo much time wasted in my own WWE match against my suits.
Crotch to the side is the only way to do a one piece.
I wear a tankini since it's easier (and I'd be horrific in a bikini) but agree with JSierra – I have a one piece I occasionally wear and I just pull it aside in the stall.
I'm really surprised so many didn't know to just move the crotch to the side!
I have no idea. But I LOVE the term "bathing costume".
I tried doing one of those monokini things, and I couldn't. When it's hot and I'm hanging out at the pool/beach, that strip of fabric feels too hoootttttt. I don't know that I'll ever be able to do a one piece.
I hope so, I'm really tired of seeing everyone's belly buttons.
We all know that if we looked fantastic we'd be wearing a bikini, when you've gained a few and don't want the world to stare you cover it up, it's as simple as that.
Yes, you just pull the crotch part to the side to pee, sheesh!
I doubt bikinis will every be truly replaced by the one piece – not when it comes to the hotness factor.
@JSierra, I wish you were around to tell me that back when I was in elementary school!
P.S. yes I am one of those women that wants to show my shit off 🙂
I think the right one piece can be very sexy! So it could happen – but some women go to the beach just to show their shit off so no I don't think it will happen1!!!
Yes b/c it hides our gut better.
That's WILD! I was just thinking when I saw Enty's post of Demi playing in mud that bikinis seem like a law requirement now or something. Even when completely unflattering to the body. That one chic in the one piece looks like she might as well be wearing a burka!
As my body is not, nor will ever be, bikini friendly and I think there are some hot classic one piece bathing suits (see enty's pics of cindy crawford and axel's ex) I would love to read that article-LINK it Enty!!
Hi beautiful CDANERS, sorry for the run-ons!! 🙂
Is it the one piece with the scooped out sides that you need an amazing body to wear? Like Sofia Vergara's double bag suit?
Bikinis or tankinis for me. I remember the annoyance of pulling down a wet one-piece suit to pee when I was a kid.
As a child I remember having so much trouble, you're wet so the bathing suit is clinging on extra tight and yeah having to take off the suit and put it back on was terrible!
agree…people are fat and it needs to be covered up.
I've only ever worn one-piece swimsuits.
Disagree. I got my Mom a LIFE magazine from 1945, the year she was born, and it featured women's swimsuit styles through the decades (including those full-body contraptions from the early 1900s!). The two-piece by 1945 had already established itself and no way does it just become less popular now.
One piece is for night swims only. Agree with everyone about tan lines. Fortunately I have a private yard.
tankinis are a great compromise. No peeing problem! And if you are not in perfect shape for a true bikini, you get additional coverage. Not sure where tankini fits into this post about one piece vs. bikini though. Since I've gotten a little older I finally had to get over that I WILL NEVER NOT WEAR A BIKINI thing. Especially after seeing some of the women at the beach near where I live.. just not flattering (and I am not picking on heavier women, it's just that you can choose to wear something more flattering to your body… or NOT)
Wait? I only do bikinis, but why is it hard to pee? Do you actually try and take your bathing suit off??? Why? Lol.
I disagree. A one piece may be the fad for a season or two, but they'll never take over.
This brazilian is sticking to a two piece. I hate the funky tan lines.
I disagree. I will always wear a bikini, I don't feel comfortable in a one piece. But in general? Who knows. Probably.

Less and More in 2013
38 comments:
Good for you Megan! That list looks a lot like mine. Truth be told...I want off the roller coaster. My bible study this past fall read the book A Life God Rewards by Bruce Wilkinson (also author of the Prayer of Jabez and Secrets of the Vine). After reading it, we all came to the conclusion we were doing a lot of things for the wrong reasons, and not for our eternal future. It really is a great book, and I highly recommend it. Probably the one most important tidbit from the book that has stuck with me is "living for the line, not the dot".ReplyDelete
Wishing you a Blessed New Year my friend!
Wonderful list! I think focusing on the "more" side will definitely lead to less of the other stuff. Blessings!ReplyDelete
I love your list and a lot of our goals are the same! :-) Happy New Year! :-)ReplyDelete

I do a word for each year and my 2012 word was actually a pair or words.. less / more! I had many of the same "goals" you have listed.. and met most of them to an extent!

Lovely sentiments. I'm going to use the myself.ReplyDelete
I love the message of this list! I'm going to have to remember these ideas when I am making my own changes in 2013!ReplyDelete
I love this list! We all less of so many things and more of others. Well said!ReplyDelete
Wonderful list! I love the focus on more to a better you! Less tv is a big one on my list !ReplyDelete
Less funk/more fun...I think I'll adopt that as my motto this year!ReplyDelete
That list sounds just like mine, well except for the less coffee seeing as I don't drink any caffeine. Blessings to you and a Happy New Year!ReplyDelete

This looks a lot like my list! Great ideas!ReplyDelete
I couldn't have said it better myself. Love this!!!!ReplyDelete
What a nice post.ReplyDelete
What a great list! I hear you on the sugar detox... ugh! :)ReplyDelete
A great book I just started - recommended on another blog - Mitten Strings for God - Reflections for Mothers in a Hurry
The chapters are short and I've been trying to read one a day. It's just refreshing and really makes me think about what I can do to slow down (even with a baby!)
Thank you Laura! I'll check it out. I love finding new books.Delete
I wasn't going to make a list this year but yours is so good and really spoke to me that I'm going to copy yours! ;) Except for the less coffee part, I still need my 2 cups in the morning! Great post!ReplyDelete
Beautiful and important reminders!ReplyDelete
Well said! Here's to wonderful 2013.ReplyDelete
Great List! I'm printing it out and putting it on my fridge! Happy New Year!ReplyDelete
What a beautifully written post Megan! I love this less/more list! What a great way to wrap your mind around your goals. I think we are definitely on the same page. I spent the 1st cleaning out my pantry and refrigerator even though I'm still not done putting Christmas away. I just really wanted to start the year out on a super healthy note! I'm doing a sugar detox too!ReplyDelete
well stated! i'm a huge supporter of the 'less is more' mentality as well. :)ReplyDelete
Your list is so wonderful!! It's like you went inside my head and put my random thoughts on paper. Kind of scary actually. I Pinned it. Good luck with your 2013 goals!!!ReplyDelete
I love your list! It's like you went inside my head and jotted down all the random things I think about. Kind of scary actually. Good luck with your 2013 goals!!ReplyDelete

Discussion in 'April 2013' started by roscoe36, Oct 29, 2012.
Chaz is keeping us in it with -13 in 6:28.
Drummond made his first 9 shots. Plus, he actually made a free throw. He is not helping the cause.
(Posted with 1:03 left in the 3rd) OK, so Drummond's gonna sit the entire 4th Q right?
Middleton -23. Toxic performance! I am still frothing at the mouth over Drummond. 19/8/1 on 90%fg in 26 minutes.
Wow, how can you be -23 when your team is winning? Now, he's down to -25. He needs to stay in the game.
These teams are going to start shooting at their own baskets any second now.
Keep K-Mid in there!
Ill take the win if it means we see more of Moose & Dre actually working together. And Dre flattening teams on his own. The whole world can't wait to see what that guy can do next season.
Wow...hack a Dre...no respect for Scott.
There is obviously a reason that Tidbits is leaving him in
I feel pretty sorry for Maggette.
Screw tanking. CLE wants it more, they can have it. Drummond just rammed it down there throats all day long, and he hit his FTs! So glad we didn't have to settle for Meyers Leonard, or skilled/unathletic and weak stiffs such as the Zeller bros.
Monster games by the Piston Towers as Dre scores a career high 29 points and grabs 11 boards. Moose chipped in 23 pts and 8 boards. In addition to the 18 by Stuckey, Will Bynum came of the bench to score 16, to make up for the dreadful shooting of Singler and BK7 who were a combined 3 for 18. Byron Scott gave the impression that he did not want to tank this game by employing the hack-a dre with a little more than 5 minutes left in the game. We can't say it worked in BScott's favor or not since Dre hit 8 out of 16 at the line and nailed the last two freebies just before the two minute mark. Like I said, BScott may have been glad Dre made most of those shots during that pivitol stretch where either team could have won it. But it appears that even though the Pistons got the victory, looks like the Cavs may have come close to securing that 4th spot. The Suns have lost 10 in a row, and will probably fold tonight in Dallas now that they have seen that the Cavs have lost. Despite 2 straight wins, the Pistons still hold on the 5th spot with 3 games to go. The Kings and Hornets who hold 7th and 6th spots play each other tonight and the Pistons need a Hornets win to maintain the 5th spot.
Might as well not even hope for it, because even if it happens, it's not going to last. Detroit plays Philly and Charlotte before Brooklyn; they're going to finish the season 4-1 and they'll be lucky to stay in the top 7. That win against Chicago hurt. That being said, if Drummond stays in this form, it's almost worth it to get a glimpse of what he and Monroe can be down the line. Monster game from both tonight. His free throws don't even look that bad, and if he can get them to at least 60%, then he's going to be a beast for years to come.
It shouldn't surprise Piston fans to see what Drummond and Monroe can do. That is what we will see a lot more of. They can begin to dominate certain teams in the league. But Drummond and Monroe came through lottery picks. And the Pistons were lucky to get either or them at their draft position at that time. But the Pistons need people in the skilled positions. Look at the 2011 lottery. A very weak lottery. But still look at the difference in Irving at the 1st pick and Knight at the 8th pick. Knight was an ok pick but he doesn't have the huge upside and current ability as Irving. I see what Cleveland is doing. They got Irving but the Pistons got the 2 bigs. Edge to the Pistons. The Pistons need to draft a guard or a small forward. They should not let the fact that they have Knight stop them from adding talent at the skilled positions. Nor should they rely on Calderon who is 31.
Yes, it looks like the Pistons may win three in a row with Charlotte.
QFT Philly are going to beat us, Charlotte is a coin toss, Brooklyn will flog us.
A lot of the final couple of games for all teams will depend on what is at stake. Some playoff teams will rest their stars if their playoff seed cannot be improved.
I'd rest out the season if I were coaching the Heat. They can use the first round to get back in shape.
In the end, Cleveland just gave the game to us. Its great to see Drummond get better at the line. Now can he do that when he only gets to the line a few times a game? Just maybe, as he was hitting half his free throws all night, not just after getting several repetitions. And great to see him hit those last two. What a monster stat for our two bigs. About 50 / 20. Just Cleveland though, and without Mophead. Bynum did one thing right, he hit his shots. Otherwise, he would have been well below worthless in this one. Too much of him guarding a guy a foot taller. Look, our bench has been having 50 point games while Bynum was out. We started out terrible in this one as our bench rotated in with Bynum out there. We have no need for him on this team. Middleton keeps making shots. And doing pretty darn good on D. Knight stunk it up pretty good. Stuckey did great. Now just give him a shooting guard, like Middleton, to start along side him and you have something. As for who we should draft. I say just use Stuckey at point. Trade Knight for a 3rd big. Draft a small forward. Use Middleton as the starting shooting guard to give us a height advantage there. Starters next year: Stuckey, Middleton, new guy from the draft, Monroe, Drummond. Throw JJ into that trade by the way. Hustles, but hey hey, what position can he actually defend in this league. Please let CV go. His defense in this one was so atrocious it just shows you why he should never of have been brought here. On Joe Dumars, sure he has done a horrid job as a GM, in terms of making this team better. Yet he does choose his scouting department people, and they keep having us draft some pretty good picks, so I will give him some credit, though very little.

From the producers of Wild Tales and directed by Pablo Trapero (White Elephant, Lion's Den, Carancho) five times selected in Cannes, comes THE CLAN, a suspense thriller based on the sordid controversial real-life case that shocked Argentina in the 80's.
Argentina in the early eighties. Within a typical family home in the traditional neighborhood of San Isidro, a sinister clan makes its living off kidnapping and murder.
Arquímedes, the patriarch, heads and plans the operations. Alejandro, his eldest son, is a star rugby player at CASI—a prestigious local club—and the Argentine mythical national team (Los Pumas). The son gives in to his father's will and identifies possible candidates for kidnapping; his popularity shields him from suspicion.
To a greater or lesser extent, the members of the family are accomplices in this dreadful venture as they live off the benefits yielded by the large ransoms paid by the families of their victims.
Based on the true story of the Puccio family, this film full of suspense and intrigue takes place in the context of the final years of the Argentine military dictatorship and incipient return to democracy.

FA Youth Cup right-back Craig Eastmond thinks that Arsenal's collective belief allows them to win games even when they are trailing.
For the third time in the competition, the Under-18s overturned a half-time deficit to secure a 2-1 first-leg advantage in their Semi Final against Manchester City on Wednesday night.
The Citizens sit 15 points clear at the top of their Premier Academy League and, before Wednesday's reverse, had not suffered a defeat at youth level all season. Despite that impressive record, Eastmond was always confident of victory even after going behind.
"Everyone on the team is always confident that we should win when we go out on the pitch," the 18-year-old told Arsenal.com after the victory.
"We're always disappointed to go behind, it's not something we want to do but obviously if we go behind we can come back. In ourselves we think we should win.
"It shows our big character. Obviously we were 1-0 down and everybody needed to pick their heads up and keep encouraging everyone to keep going."
The Wandsworth-born defender has not missed a second of the Gunners' Youth Cup campaign so far this term as part of a starting XI that has stayed relatively settled since their Third-Round victory at Aston Villa in December.
That stability is invaluable to their chances of winning the competition, explained Eastmond.
"I think it's most important to have the same squad throughout the whole competition," he said. "If it changes it's probably down to injury but everyone keeps encouraging whoever steps in.
"It makes everyone aware of each other's strengths and weaknesses which can only be a good thing."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

On May 13, 1889 seven men met in the City Hall office of Mayor Orestes Cleveland to organize the first free public library for Jersey City. These newly appointed library trustees chose as their president the man who had battled for years to convince both the public and the political officials that a municipal library was a necessity. He was Dr. Leonard Gordon, a physician, whose first major task was to file a suit to force the city's Finance Board to appropriate the funds mandated by state law.
With 15,515 books in stock and with no fanfare, the new library opened on July 6, 1891 in rented, gas- lit rooms in two adjacent bank buildings on Washington Street, near York. To go from one part of the library to the other, the public had to go out into the street. Clearly, a new structure was needed, one designed to house a large book collection and to provide seating capacity for a city with a population reaching the 200,000 mark.
Throughout the 1890s the trustees and library staff acquired land at Jersey Avenue and Montgomery Street, hired a supervising architect, Professor A.D.F. Hamlin of Colombia University, and announced a design competition. The architectural firm of Brite and Bacon of New York was selected, contracts were awarded, and, on August 16, 1899, the cornerstone was set in place. On January 14, 1901 the new building, today's main library, was dedicated.
Physical expansion continued into the 1920s, and the main library itself was enlarged. The Depression, however, took its toll by curtailing any additional growth. Throughout the 1970's to the present the library has added services. Additional programming, access to online databases, and the use of microforms, maps, and photographs have augmented the book and periodical collections. In 1989 the library embarked on its second century as a significant Jersey City institution.
In recent years, the most important development in the library has been the introduction of automation. With the introduction of an online catalog, patrons can now search the collection from their homes as well as from a growing number of onsite computer terminals.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by doublead, Aug 26, 2007.
I like stuckey already but is he really an upgrade over hunter an murray
We need to get him some of Lindsey's Diet Pills to make it a fair comparison!
I have nothing to say to that other than !!!
Stuckey will have a tough time (as all rookies do) because he has to have the motor running with the minutes he will get (probably under 10 mpg). This means he will be faced nightly (tough and lonely travels without Charley) against professionals who have experience and developed a routine for comfortability. It is not easy and we shouldn't expect too much. Now on to Murray. I think that he has the best 1-2 position talent on the team. Yep, you heard me right. His overall talent is not being used and he certainly has some internal responsibility for this happenstance. This guy can shoot the 3, slash and finish (right or left hand ladies and gentlemen) at the rim. Passing is consist to the occasion. And the biggest knock (which is the traditional odd-ball criticism) was that he couldn't play defense. Ahem...was there not a few times last year when he got into the opponents face, and came away from the ball. This guy is the complete package. And to follow the analogy from Coe, stationary with a tough and glossy (exhibiting free radical polymerization) finish. Unfortunately for us, this quality paper has smudge marks all over it. This guy needs the right coach and the right organization. Won't happen in Detroit. So when the pumpkins start their routine of trading the Flips, I quietly agree with the one involving the player. Another Billups in the making and I wish I could have one summer with this guy.
When Dwyane met Chauncey: Rodney Stuckey. I hope.
I don't see many similarities between Wade and Chauncey. Personally, I'm hoping Hot Rod is all Wade.
If Stuckey gets under 10 mins per game, that means that Chauncey and Rip are going to play major minutes again and I just don't see it happening. I don't expect Murray to play much, if any. So that leaves us with Afflalo and Hayes to backup Tay, Rip, and Chauncey. I am seeing Stuckey with 15-20 minutes. Afflalo, with Hayes signing, may be the one to lose minutes.
He was saying that Stuckey is an amalgamation of Wade and Chauncey. I hope so too.
I truly hope that he doesn't have all the negatives- imagine a player with Wade's 3pt shot and Chauncey's dunking ability and speed. So you're either his agent or FlipM himself. Ok, I don't like all the FlipM bashing myself, but you're doing the opposite. For his prize, you get a decent and solid player to play the 1 or 2 position, given the right matchups. I like that.
I said months ago that Flip could have become the starter if Billups didn't sign. He'll stay with the Pistons and languish on the bench as Rodney and Aaron both see more minutes this season...........
Rodney Stuckey will get 15-20 minutes a game. Afflalo will get his minutes also. Flip M will either be glued to the bench, traded or released. He serves no earthly purpose here in Detroit and it's only a matter of time before his case will be closed. Hayes will also see a lot of minutes at the SF/SG spots. But as far as Flip M, stick a fork in him, he's done.
Can I have some of whatever you're on?
I would have to disagree. Here are the combo guys on this team: Flip Murray 1/2, Chauncey Billups 1/2, Rodney Stuckey 1/2, and Amir Johnson 3/4. Flip isn't that bad, but he is not the best combo player on this team.
Amen. Even when Chauncey was injured and Flip got the minutes, he still was quite inconsistent and hasn't shown enough to grant significant minutes.
I think Flip could have succeeded if put in a winning situation with the team. He's got talent and skill, finding the right situation has been a problem.
I don't know about the fork, but I sure wish he was better looking.
You had me worried for a second, I thought that you were going to blame the playoff loses on him. Oh well, give it time. Whoops, wrong Flip.
Hot Rod and AJ are the future of the Pistons, starting this coming year. They will make Piston fans forget all about Stockton and Malone. Say what?
*Best case scenario
On the subject of combo players, Mejia can play point, shooting guard, and small forward.

I know that swarming bees are natural and healthy. From my research on Russian bees, they aren't as bad to swarm as Italians and Carolinas.
The idea behind spacing the hives is to keep the bees from transferring pests, disease, sevin dust that one hive found but the other didn't by a bee that went to the wrong hive. I know the guard bees are suppose to check each bee, but with chemical treatments what do they smell. The distance apart probably can be a minimun of 5 feet. I will probably place mine around 100 ft since I have 20 acres to work with. This brings up another point, my hives "will not be painted white". Have you tried to look at something white in the bright sunshine. I don't know how bees see, but I think a soft green or blue would be better. I'll let you know how they act.

Want to know where your message in a bottle will turn up or track down the path of local floating pollution? Welcome to adrift, a website inspired by research into ocean circulation by Dr Erik Van Sebille and the delightful book Moby Duck about the true adventure of 28,800 rubber ducks lost at sea.
Here you can explore how all kinds of objects drift through the ocean - from rubber duckies to plastic pollution - and where each object might end up if it is washed out to sea from your beach.
The website uses a scientific method that is based on observed tracks revealed by buoys in the Global Drifter Program and other scientific research in this field. On this website you can see where ocean-going debris travelled after the Fukushima disaster or the path rubber ducks may have taken after the famous Friendly Floaties spill revealed in Moby Duck.
Happy Exploring, it is time to drift away!
The scientific methods used to calculate the paths of floating debris through our oceans for 10 years after release are quite complicated. It is perhaps best summarised in the video below
Our oceans make up 70 per cent of the Earth's surface and are in constant motion. Driven by the sun and the wind our oceans develop mighty currents and eddies, some of which can take centuries to loop through all of our planet's ocean basins.
These currents also move through three dimensions. Many rise from the deep ocean near coastlines while other currents descend to the deepest parts of the ocean. These vertically descending currents are often, but not always, in the middle of the ocean in regions known as the five great gyres. These gyres are giant vortices spanning the whole ocean basin where water at the surface slowly spirals inwards until it sinks.
However, almost all plastic materials and lighter than water objects (such as those messages in a bottles) stay on the surface.
Since the late 1970s, ocean scientists have tracked drifting buoys but it wasn't until 1982 the World Climate Research Programme put forward the idea of a standardised global array of drifting buoys. These buoys float with the currents just like plastics except - like Twitter from the sea - they send a short message to scientists every six hours about where they are and the conditions in that location.
With this information, we have been able to create a statistical model of the surface pathways of our oceans. The Adrift website uses this model and generates an animation of the likely path and destination of floating debris over a ten year period into the future.
For the full details go to Erik Van Sebille's webpage or the paper Origin, dynamics and evolution of ocean garbage patches from observed surface drifters. If you have any further questions you can contact Erik van Sebille
We show you a cute rubber duckie on the map, but the experiment you are doing when you click on the map is actually very sad. You are investigating how plastics move in the ocean.
The plastic litter is one of the biggest problems in our ocean. It can entangle marine animals, or they can mistake it for food and eat it. If that happens, the plastic gets into the food-chain, and in particular the chemicals in the plastics can be very harmful.
Fortunately, there are many groups of people that want to do something about this problem. They for instance clean up beaches, or try to reduce the amount of plastics we use in our daily lives. So, if you want to help out yourself, why not contact one of the organisations below?
5 Gyres, Tangaroa Blue, Surfrider Foundation, or Plastic Oceans
If you want to know more about plastics in the ocean, go to our website plastinography.org.
Q: How does the pathway of marine plastics shown on this site relate to the plume of the radioactive material from the Fukushima disaster?
A: The drifting buoys used as input for this website track the currents in the upper ocean. This site can therefore be used to study the pathways of the debris from the Fukushima tsunami itself. The plume of radioactive material, however, will not only stay at the surface. As we showed in a scientific study (see also here), much of the material will actually move to greater depths. Nevertheless, the fastest pathways of radioactive material will be near the surface, where current speeds are greatest, and so the animation of the Fukushima fallout shows the route of that part of the radioactive material that reaches the US coast first.
Q: Why does the site say "Sorry, we have no data for that ocean area"?
A: The website is built using data from observations only. And like any observations, these are not perfect. We just do not have data from every area in the ocean. This can be seen in the map below, which shows in red the areas where there are not enough surface drifting buoys for our analysis.
Most areas without sufficient coverage are very near the coastlines. But there are also extensive regions in the Arctic, around Antarctica, in the Indonesian Archipelago, the North Sea and some other marginal seas. The reasons for this poor coverage vary from sea ice to piracy, as can be read in this excellent article (paywalled).
Q: Why does my plastic litter stay in the Mediterranean Sea?
A: Again, this is a coverage issue, see also the map above. In the whole 30 years of the drifter project, there has never been a drifting buoy that crossed the Gibraltar Strait. In our transition matrix, the Mediterranean Ocean is therefore completely disconnected from the rest of the global ocean.
Q: What exactly does the scale mean?
A: The scale on the bottom right runs from 0% to 1%. This may sound like a small number, but that is just because the plastic very quickly spreads over a large area. We have max-ed out areas where the plastic concentration is higher than 1%, in order to focus on the spread of the plastic after a few years.
Q: Why can I see only plastic litter for the coming 10 years?
A: The 10 years maximum is a trade-off between more information and faster response times. In principle, we can advect the plastic much longer than 10 years, but it will then take much longer before you see the result. If you really want to see plastic evolution on longer time scales, contact us directly.
Q: Can I export the raw data from the experiment? / Can I have multiple release points?
A: If you want something more 'fancy' than what the site can provide, either download the transit matrix and start analysing it yourself, or contact us. We're happy to help out!

I posted a thread before sharing some funny pictures with jokes related to Buddhism.
I came across some more and thought I'd share them to give us all a laugh!
Hopefully you all will not take the jokes too seriously or become offended and just enjoy them.
These 3 jokes are based on the meditation because usually when a Buddhist meditates, they clear their minds.

I have had to push back any shipping until the 1st. The posted list will all go out then. It's been raining every day here for the past week and very cold so the last wave of belts are still a bit damp. These last 6 belts will ship as soon as they are completely dry. Anyone who has other stuff in their order will have those things shipped at the same time.
Sorry for any holdup
These belts shipped today and the rest will follow in the morning.
Got mine... THANKS!
Down to only shin tools and a rangefinder to go!
Glad to hear it. Thanks alot

I got my belt yesterday Woody and it is a good fit with my ABU's on I think it will be just right with armor. Thanks for the hard work and time!
These looked awesome! I just got myself a white one, so Woody: what colour brown did you use to dye the ESB belt? Cheers.
Mine arrived the other day woody, excellent service,very happy with it.

UPDATE! The current run of belts came in yesterday.
All current belts are dyed and drying. I was not able to get them dyed as quickly as I'd hoped with the holiday commitments I had but with that over things are back on track and moving forward. I hope to have them ready to ship by next week. Thanks to everyone for their patience.
All belts current belts are dry and I'll be doing the straps this weekend and shipping them early in the week.

The Alevi community of Turkey constitutes about 12% of the population but for decades has been subject to discriminatory acts on the part of the government. Alevis are Muslims, but they do not agree with many practices of Sunni or Shiite branches of the religion. Yesterday, thousands demonstrated in Ankara in a "Grand Rally" for freedom. The Alevis want an end to compulsory religious education in schools, they want their brand of the Muslim religion to receive official recognition, they want their houses of worship to be recognized in the same manner as a mosque or church, and they want the abolishment of the Directorate of Religious Affairs. Alevi leaders insist Turkey is a secular nation and therefore having compulsory religion classes which are based on Sunni beliefs is a violation of the Constitution. The Council of State ruled in March that students should not be required to attend religion classes that focus solely on Sunni beliefs, but no action has really been taken to implement this decision.
There is scant chance the current Turkish government will accept the concept that religion has no place in public schools. The dilemma is that Alevi belief is open to the ideas of all religions and has no hostility to those who differ from the Muslim religion. They most probably are too liberal in their views of religion for the present Turkish government.
