Nope........just scumbag
The majority of lawyers have no morals. Its bred, and trained out of them. They gravitate to any position that will put money in their pockets. Then they make an argument about how righteous they are.

To the Last Drop: Common sense and your lawn
July 17, 2012
Stage 2 mandatory water restrictions:
• Potable water shall be used for beneficial purposes and should not be wasted.
• No outdoor watering between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.
• Outdoor watering schedule is based on the last number of the customer's street address. Odd-numbered addresses can water Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays; even-numbered addresses can water Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays. There is no watering permitted Wednesdays.
• No vehicle washing at residences.
• No washing hard surfaces such as driveways, sidewalks and parking areas. Sweep with a broom instead.
• No running outdoor water features.
• No use of domestic water for dust control.
• Limit the filling of swimming pools to one filling per year, unless draining for repairs.
• Permits may be secured for newly-sodded lawns and newly-planted trees for as many as 14 consecutive days and for newly-seeded lawns for as many as 25 consecutive days with the exception of Wednesdays.
Tips for conserving water
• Avoid watering in windy conditions.
• Adjust sprinklers to avoid watering hard surfaces. Set timers to avoid over-watering.
• Because our clay soils restrict penetration of water, it is better to water for three short intervals than for one long interval.
• When irrigating with a hose, use a spring-loaded nozzle, not a free-running hose.
• Cut your lawn no shorter than three inches to reduce soil moisture loss and to promote deeper roots.
• Avoid planting trees and shrubs or sodding new lawns during the drier, hotter months.
• Plant native grasses and shrubs or drought-tolerant species in place of water-intensive species.
Steamboat Springs — For the first time ever, mandatory water restrictions have been issued by water districts in Steamboat Springs. District managers take this decision seriously and base their action on scientific data, including flows in the river basins, snowpack, temperatures and precipitation.
Accordingly, it's time to provoke thought on ways we can change old habits that may not make a lot of sense to begin with. Take our turf grass lawns, for example. They can be things of beauty — green, lush and perfect places to recreate or relax. While we don't need to rid our yards of lawns, there are advantages in our climate to minimizing the places we grow grass and to encouraging attractive alternatives (think xeriscape).
A common misnomer for irrigating landscapes is that more is better, when in fact over-watering is not only wasteful and costly but also unhealthy for plants.
So in the areas where turf grass is a must, how much water is necessary? We can go into the many variables that contribute to plant health, such as soil condition, nutrients, pests and so forth. But as a rule of thumb, most of our soils here are high in clay and don't absorb water quickly. It therefore is important to apply water at a reduced rate and in cycles to maximize infiltration. Generally, most lawns will do just fine with watering three days per week at a total of 1 to 1 1/2 inches of water per week. And everyone now should know that watering during the day (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) is not at all efficient while also in violation of the mandatory water restrictions.
Here are some tips for lawn irrigation application rates:
Water once in the morning (before 9 a.m.) and once in the evening (after 7 p.m.) at 1 to 1 1/2 inches per week. If you have a sprinkler system, set it to avoid over-watering.
Water at a maximum rate of a half-inch per hour for optimum absorption. Select rotary nozzles that use stream spray for multi-trajectory and slow delivery of water.
Use a smart controller, ET-based controller, wireless rain sensors and/or adjusting timers to conserve water and grow healthier turf and plants.
Cut your lawn no shorter than 3 inches to reduce soil moisture loss and to promote deeper roots.
Avoid planting trees and shrubs or sodding new lawns during the drier, hotter months of summer.
Don't forget that rebates are available for irrigation and other water-conservation retrofits. Visit http://www.mwwater.com for more information.

This video got a fair bit of attention recently (on Twitter, I think), which is how I came to learn about it. Upon review, however, I was disappointed. The second half where they are using balls in strength and conditioning work I'm fine with. There are some good elements there. They don't specifically require a volleyball, but since you have them at hand, why not put them to use for you? The first half, however, I found to be utterly useless, for reasons you may understand if you've ready my comments in Are your warm-ups wasting valuable time?.
Jogging, as I noted in the referenced post, is of little value to volleyball players. Now these guys are adding in silly things like spins. And what's this stuff with tossing the ball up in the air? The only real attempt to have anything volleyball-like in there is the bits where the players mix in some sets and forearm passes. The mechanics of those skills, though, are poor – making their inclusion worse than useless. They are reinforcing bad habits, effectively.
If you want to have players moving and executing ball-handling skills then have them move in a volleyball-like fashion (shuffles, transition footwork, short runs, etc.) and execute those skills with proper technique – especially when dealing with young and developing players. Things like jog-and-set or jog-and-pass might be good for mixing things up in a big camp or to have a bit of fun (team shuttles, etc.), but they should not be used on any kind of regular basis.

why is this not a sticky? i always take sooo long trying to locate this thread. lol
Anyone know the bulb for the map light by the rear view mirror on a USDM P11?
is it the same as the dome light?
Would anyone know why my US 2001 P11t use the PY21W (581) bulbs for the turn signals? It's the same as what's listed for the Primera P11. The bulb is marked PY21W. I went in to Autozone looking at the 7440 bulbs which are listed for the US P11, and they aren't even close to the same type.
please sticky this thread!!
What's the deal with CHMSL on the G20t (the one in the spoiler)? Mine stopped working, but looks like its a bunch of LED's. Ok.... So, do you replace the whole unit or is there something else I should be checking first?
Excellent guide, better than the manual! Thank you.
In my case, my LED light bar was to blame. Mine wasn't working, I saw the crack in the protective sheath, so I replaced the harness. But my LED light bar still wasn't working! So when I took the light bar out, I saw the issue. Somehow water got into it, and shorted out one of the diodes inside it. The two halfs are ultrasonically welded together, and I tried opening it up without destroying it, but I couldn't. Luckily I found a used light bar. Brand new, they go for $250-300! Yikes!!
FYI, there's been a few separate threads on this very topic. I've posted pics of the harness and where the break occurs. Unfortunately, I can't remember the exact thread(s) at the moment.
anyone knows the bulb size for P11 third brake light?
its 1156
Last edited by burubuduy; Feb 11, 10 at 08:42 PM. Reason: figured out the bulb
To answer that age old question, "What type of bulb is used in the visor vanity lights?"
I got curious the other day and decided to find out! They are called a fuselamp (fuse lamp). It looks like this:
The dimensions are 6mm diameter & 29mm long. And according to my P11 FSM, they are 8 watts.
The closest sized bulbs out there are festoon bulbs, but they are 8mm x 31mm. and the diameter of the glass portion is often larger than 8mm (they bulge out in the middle) and there really isn't alot of room for anything larger than 6m IIRC. I took pics with my cell phone, but can't seem to d/l or send them from it. Crappy pics anyhow.
Next Question people will ask, where can I get an LED version. Answer - Nowhere. I called up superbrightleds.com and spoke with the them. The guy I talked to is a car nut with a Honda (we'll forgive him for that) but he said he too would love to go LED for these bulbs, but they're not available. He said he's going to harass his management again about finding some. He's received alot of requests.
Another solution? Possibly! I scrolled through flea-Bay and I think I may have found a bulb that will work. I ordered a pair, and just waiting on them. The only issue is the ones I ordered are an 8mm diameter & 31mm long, and I think that might be too big. I'm sure I can pop them in, just not sure if they'll stay in. I'll keep you all posted!
Hey I just bought some new headlights and im looking for some bulbs! are these going to fit? Any suggestions are welcome

Conference Championship Matchup - San Francisco 49ers vs. Atlanta Falcons
Posted by Dawgmaticå on 01/15/13
San Francisco 49ers (12-4-1, 5-3 on the road)
2012 Offensive Ranks
San Francisco Rush Offense: 155.7 Yards/Game (4th) || 17 TDs (T-6th)
San Francisco Pass Offense: 205.9 Yards/Game (23rd) || 23 TDs (T-16th)
Opponent 2012 Defensive Ranks
Atlanta Rush Defense: 123.2 Yards Allowed/Game (21st) || 16 TDs Allowed (T-24th)
Atlanta Pass Defense: 242.4 Yards Allowed/Game (23rd) || 14 TDs Allowed (1st)
San Francisco Offensive Cast
Colin Kaepernick (QB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 1 of 4)
2012 Season: 136/218 for 1,814 Yards, 10 TDs and 3 INTs || 63 Carries for 415 Yards and 5 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 17/31 for 263 Yards, 2 TDs and 1 INT || 16 Carries for 181 Yards and 2 TDs
Considering what's going on with Colin Kaepernick and Joe Flacco, these Harbaugh brothers sure know what they're doing—as does the main man here at Pyro®; d-Rx®. He's a forward-thinking fantasy guy and has been high on Kaepernick since he was sitting on the bench in the beginning of his 2011 rookie season. Why, you ask? Because he noticed that the league was changing, and not only did he realize that Kaep had some really nice quarterback skills, but that he also had the potential to be one of the best running QBs in the league. It's a reality now, folks. The best fantasy quarterbacks aren't just passing machines anymore—like Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees—but they're also the most athletic, like Colin Kaepernick, Russell Wilson, RGIII, Andrew Luck and Cam Newton. With the way fantasy scoring rules are today, if you want the best fantasy score, you simply have to take a chance on Kaepernick this weekend.
Frank Gore (RB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 2 of 13)
2012 Season: 258 Carries for 1,214 Yards and 8 TDs || 28 Receptions for 234 Yards and 1 TD
Divisional Game vs. GB: 23 Carries for 119 Yards and 1 TD || 2 Receptions for 48 Yards and 0 TDs
Of the four teams left in the playoffs, the Atlanta Falcons are the easiest to score big fantasy points against—no doubt about it. Gore has been rested all year for this exact reason and I expect the 49ers to use him accordingly in this game. Yes, Colin Kaepernick will take his fair share of keepers for a good amount of yards, but Gore should find some wide open holes because of it and turn them into a good 100 rushing yards and a touchdown. To be honest, Gore's fantasy value just went up exponentially next season with the recent play of Kaepernick. Awesome combo.
LaMichael James (RB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 9 of 13)
2012 Season: 27 Carries for 125 Yards and 0 TDs || 3 Receptions for 29 Yards and 0 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 3 Carries for 21 Yards and 0 TDs || 1 Reception for 7 Yards and 0 TDs
LaMichael didn't see a whole lot of action this past weekend, but that was to be expected as a rookie running back in a playoff game. Still, the 'Niners DID trust him enough to get him the ball four times (21 rushing yards, seven receiving), so he's obviously still in the gameplan from week to week.
Anthony Dixon (RB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 10 of 13)
2012 Season: 21 Carries for 78 Yards and 2 TDs || 0 Receptions for 0 Yards and 0 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 1 Carry for 2 Yards and 1 TD || 0 Receptions for 0 Yards and 0 TDs
Dixon is a LOT better than he's given credit for, but he happens to be on a team with far superior running backs right now. Seeing how he gave the 49ers a touchdown on his sole touch of the day last week, I suppose it's possible he gets the call again… though I wouldn't exactly count on it.
Michael Crabtree (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 2 of 14)
2012 Season: 85 Receptions for 1,105 Yards and 9 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 9 Receptions for 119 Yards and 2 TDs
Who doubted Michael Crabtree when the season started? I'll admit, I am one of those raising their hands. Plain and simple, the kid is the hottest wide receiver left in the 2012 NFL playoffs and should probably be the top wide receiver this week… However, with Asante Samuel likely covering him this Sunday, I can't endorse him as the number one guy. Colin Kaepernick obviously loves him, so Crabby will get his targets no matter what… as he should. That being said, the Falcons don't normally allow many fantasy points to opposing wide receivers (eighth fewest during the regular season) and let up the least amount of touchdowns to them in 2012. So even though I have Crabtree ranked high this week, believe me, the kid will have his work cut out for him.
Randy Moss (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 9 of 14)
2012 Season: 28 Receptions for 434 Yards and 3 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 2 Receptions for 25 Yards and 0 TDs
Moss didn't see many balls flying his way against the Packers last weekend, and I can't see much changing against Atlanta this Sunday. The Falcons boast one of the league's more formidable secondarys, so with his skills obviously nowhere near where they once were, I'm not expecting too much out of Randy.
A.J. Jenkins (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 14 of 14)
2012 Season: 0 Receptions for 0 Yards and 0 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 0 Receptions for 0 Yards and 0 TDs
Jenkins was on the field for only seven snaps last weekend and saw zero targets from Colin Kaepernick. For no particular reason, I think he improves on those numbers and sees eight snaps this Sunday along with one target. He still won't make a catch, though.
Ted Ginn (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 13 of 14)
2012 Season: 2 Receptions for 1 Yard and 0 TDs
Wildcard Game vs. GB: 1 Reception for 3 Yards and 0 TDs
Ginn actually caught one of his two targets last week and turned it into a three-yard gain. Hey, at least it was more productive than what A.J. Jenkins did! Anyway, his real value comes from his special teams play where the chance he takes a punt to the house gets him ranked one higher than the bottom.
Vernon Davis (TE Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 5 of 7)
2012 Season: 41 Receptions for 548 Yards and 5 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 1 Reception for 44 Yards and 0 TDs
Vernon Davis has been nearly invisible in the stat column for over a month now, but things can change pretty quickly in this crazy game of fantasy football. Last week versus the Packers, Vernon saw the second most targets on the team behind Michael Crabtree with five balls thrown his way. Actually, he was tied for the second spot with the 'Niners OTHER tight end, Delanie Walker. Davis, however, was able to put up more fantasy points going for 44 yards compared to Walker's 17. The ugly part of that last equation is that both players caught just one ball in the game. Who wins the duel this week is up for grabs, but it's at least promising for both seeing how the Falcons allowed the tenth most fantasy points to tight ends this season.
Delanie Walker (TE Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 4 of 7)
2012 Season: 21 Receptions for 344 Yards and 3 TDs
Divisional Game vs. GB: 1 Reception for 17 Yards and 0 TDs
Walker was on the field for 73 percent of the offensive snaps last week compared to 95 percent for Vernon Davis. However, those numbers don't mean much of anything when your quarterback likes you more than the other guy. Over the last five weeks of the season, Walker caught 10 passes on 16 targets for 160 yards and two touchdowns. In the same time, Davis caught just six passes on 11 targets for 61 yards and zero touchdowns. I doubt either one has much of an impact on this game, but I'd probably have to go with the one Kaepernick likes more if I had to choose.
Atlanta Falcons (14-3, 8-1 at home)
2012 Offensive Ranks
Atlanta Rush Offense: 87.3 Yards/Game (29th) || 12 TDs (T-13th)
Atlanta Pass Offense: 281.8 Yards/Game (6th) || 32 TDs (5th)
Opponent 2012 Defensive Ranks
San Francisco Rush Defense: 94.2 Yards Allowed/Game (4th) || 7 TDs Allowed (4th)
San Francisco Pass Defense: 200.2 Yards Allowed/Game (4th) || 19 TDs Allowed (T-7th)
Atlanta Offensive Cast
Matt Ryan (QB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 4 of 4)
2012 Season: 422/615 for 4,719 Yards, 32 TDs and 14 INTs || 34 Carries for 141 Yards and 1 TD
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 24/35 for 250 Yards, 3 TDs and 2 INTs || 1 Carry for 6 Yards and 0 TDs
I still believe that Matt Ryan is one of the best fantasy quarterbacks in the game and I will likely be ranking him in the top ten guys going into the 2013 season. With Roddy White and Julio Jones as your wide receivers, how can't you? Be that as it may, this will NOT be one of Ryan's better outings going up against this dominant 49ers defense. I didn't think Ryan would do much against the Seahawks last week, and even though he threw for three touchdowns, his 250 passing yards were the fewest of any QB in the divisional round. I guess what I'm saying here is that even though Ryan may very well have a decent game this week (though his fantasy numbers were far inferior at home this season), he still won't outperform Brady, Flacco and Kaepernick. It's as simple as that.
Michael Turner (RB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 5 of 13)
2012 Season: 222 Carries for 800 Yards and 10 TDs || 19 Receptions for 128 Yards and 1 TD
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 14 Carries for 98 Yards and 0 TDs || 0 Receptions for 0 Yards and 0 TDs
I'm impressed. Give me whatever reason you want as to how Turner ripped apart the Seattle Seahawks defense last week and I'll still be impressed. Has he been underestimated? Absolutely. Is he 30 years old? Yes. Not what he used to be? Yes. However, Turner was rested enough throughout the season to make a difference RIGHT NOW, and THAT is what is important. The Falcons knew they would get here; it was just a matter of how much they actually needed Michael Turner in order to get there. Well, it's time to unleash the Centaur, and though he won't go for more than 60 to 70 yards in this game, it won't be for lack of trying because I expect at least 15-20 carries in this one. You HAVE to do that against the 49ers… or they'll kill you for lack of respect.
Jacquizz Rodgers (RB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 6 of 13)
2012 Season: 94 Carries for 362 Yards and 1 TD || 53 Receptions for 402 Yards and 1 TD
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 10 Carries for 64 Yards and 0 TDs || 2 Receptions for 8 Yards and 0 TDs
Quizz is the X-factor. Could he get more touches in this game than Michael Turner? It's entirely possible, yes. However, it won't be on the goal line and the fact that he hasn't scored a postseason touchdown in his career definitely makes a difference when choosing between the two. I love his game and I love his toughness, but he won't give you more fantasy points than the rundown Centaur will.
Jason Snelling (RB Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 12 of 13)
2012 Season: 18 Carries for 63 Yards and 0 TDs || 31 Receptions for 203 Yards and 1 TD
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 0 Carries for 0 Yards and 0 TDs || 1 Reception for 5 Yards and 1 TD
One touch, one catch, one touchdown. If you take him on your fantasy team, that is the absolute best you'll get the second time around… and I give it maybe a three percent chance of happening again.
Roddy White (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 5 of 14)
2012 Season: 92 Receptions for 1,351 Yards and 7 TDs
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 5 Receptions for 76 Yards and 1 TD
Roddy White is the goods. I've been drafting this kid out of Alabama-Birmingham for years now and let me tell you; the guy rarely disappoints. When it comes to the playoffs, he's managed to catch a touchdown in three of his four appearances, including last week against the Seattle Seahawks. He's also never had less than five catches for 52 yards in a playoff game. Basically, he's as steady as you could hope for as a fantasy owner and would be the one to snag when you're debating between him and another receiver. Regardless of his price, Roddy will be the guy you want.
Julio Jones (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 3 of 14)
2012 Season: 79 Receptions for 1,198 Yards and 10 TDs
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 6 Receptions for 59 Yards and 0 TDs || 1 Carry for -1 Yards and 0 TDs
Julio Jones is probably the most talented of the remaining receivers, but his skillls don't always translate into production. Julio's track-record at home has been less than impressive over the past two years and though he may be DUE to have a big statistical home game, I can't very well believe it will happen against the 49ers pass defense. I'm a huge fan of yours, Julio, but you're going to have to prove yourself before I give you my top ranking.
Harry Douglas (WR Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 10 of 14)
2012 Season: 38 Receptions for 396 Yards and 1 TD
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 2 Receptions for 29 Yards and 0 TDs
Douglas was in the game just 40 percent of the time against the Seahawks, but he actually ended up playing three more snaps than Michael Turner did, and I fully expect the same this weekend. Leadfoot Turner won't be able to bust through the 'Niners front seven and he certainly won't be able to run around them, so I expect the Falcons will turn to the passing game in order to move the ball. Douglas may be ignored a bit with Julio and Roddy running around out there, so he could come up with some sneaky numbers here if Ryan can't buy enough time in the pocket to throw it to his big guns.
Tony Gonzalez (TE Playoff Week 3 Fantasy Ranking: 3 of 7)
2012 Season: 93 Receptions for 930 Yards and 8 TDs
Divisional Game vs. Sea: 6 Receptions for 51 Yards and 1 TD
Gonzo is going to get his targets, especially in the red zone, but you can bet your ass the 49ers will be watching him like a hawk all over the field this Sunday. The 'Niners gave up the fewest yards to tight ends in 2012, so Tony G might have a bit of a problem keeping up with Pitta and Hernandez in that department. However, they also allowed eight touchdowns to tight ends in 16 games this season, so Gonzo could make up for his lack of yards with a 6-pointer. Considering how this could actually be the final game of his career, I expect Matt Ryan to show him a little extra love this weekend.

Free For All: the Bard's 'All's Well That Ends Well'
One way to tell that the 2012-2013 theater season is just around the corner, if not upon us, is the arrival of the newest edition of the Shakespeare Theatre Company's annual Free For All production which serves as both a climax to the previous season and a signal for the coming of the next one.
The 22nd Annual Free For All Production started this week and runs through Sept. 5 at Sidney Harman Hall with a production of Shakespeare's sparkling, romantic, enigmatic comedy, "All's Well That Ends Well." Tickets, as the program title suggests, are free.
The Shakespeare Theatre Company's artistic director Michael Kahn was the original director of this production, a task which will now be handled by Jenny Lord who was assistant director on the original production in the 2010-2011.
A large part of the original cast returns from that production, most notably Oscar-nominated actress Marsha Mason who reprises her role as the Countess of Rossillion, Ted van Griethuysen as the King of France, Miriam Silverman in the difficult lead role of the play's heroine Helena and Paxton Whitehead as Lafew, a prominent member of the court.
Helena is always something of a problem child—a female character who's smart, brave, determined, and dogged, determined against all odds to make a man who's obviously wrong for her love her, surmounting obstacle after obstacle. She's a child of the court where her father was doctor to the king, and save the king, gets a wish to wed any man she wants. The man she wants is the aristocratic, noncommittal-to-a-fault Count Bertram, who invents new levels of boorishness to avoid being wed to Helena. Things, as they say, happen and complications ensue. A Shakespeare play is always full of surprises, trap doors and characters to whom attention must be paid. In this case, the king's wisdom, which van Griethuysen lets shine through with authority and wisdom, and the strong-willed kindness of the Countess Rossillion as displayed quietly by Mason are key factors, as well as Silverman's marvelous and appealing resilience as Helena. Watch out for the character of Parolles, a paragon of not being a paragon, or as one of his friends marvels, "He knows what he is, and he is still what he is," or words to that effect.
The Free for All, an annual, full-scale production of one of the company's previously and recently performed production, has become both a tradition and a gift for Washington theater goers since it was originated by Kahn and Robert Linowes 22 years ago . Since then, some 630,000 patrons have attended since the first production of "The Merry Wives of Windsor." Until the series was moved to Sidney Harman Hall, its productions were staged outdoors at Carter Barron Ampitheatre. The series managed to combine aspects of giving back to the community by staging high-quality, full-blown Shakespearean plays while at the same time creating new audiences for the theater.

Wyatt-MacKenzie Publishing Announces Fall Releases
Deadwood, OR
Wyatt-MacKenzie Publishing's Fall 2014 releases include a time-bending romance, a father and daughter set of life-improving financial lessons, a journey of spiritual awakening, and a peek inside the exquisiteness of twinship
Wyatt-MacKenzie joins the Romance Fantasy genre with a time-traveling love story, LEMONGRASS?HOPE (Oct. 8, 2014), the debut novel by reformed corporate litigator Amy Impellizzeri. Jacquelyn Mitchard, NYT bestselling author, describes LEMONGRASS?HOPE as "...that fine and fresh thing...a truly new story." Mitchard describes the author: "Amy Impellizzeri is a bold and tender writer, who makes the impossible feel not only real, but strangely familiar." Kirkus Reviews declares LEMONGRASS?HOPE: "A layered, bittersweet romance that questions consequences and explores second chances. ForeWord Reviews, in their Fall 2014 Issue, writes: "Time itself is a villain in this unusual tale, yet the possibility of a dream come true remains on the horizon. Realistic portrayals mingle with strange phenomena in this heady mix of contemporary romance and psychic twilight."
Several artisans are participating in a trendy launch of LEMONGRASS?HOPE. Jill Donovan, founder of Rustic Cuff - known for creating handcrafted cuffs worn by best-selling authors and celebrities including Emily Giffin, Ree Drummond, Jenna Bush Hager, Britney Spears and Miranda Lambert - made a one-of-a-kind "lemongrass hope cuff." Nalana Lillie who founded Book Scents, known for highly scented candles inspired by books and characters, has created a custom hand-poured "lemongrass hope candle" which is a blend of lemongrass, sage and imported African marula oil - straight out of the novel - known for its time-travel properties, to bring the novel's mystical magic into the readers' homes. Book Club members get the recipe for "Lemongrass: Hope in a Glass" to accompany their discussion questions as well. Visit AmyImpellizzeri.com; http://www.amazon.com/dp/1939288533
Danny Kofke released his second book with Wyatt-MacKenzie on money management - A?BRIGHT?FINANCIAL?FUTURE: Teaching your Kids About Money Pre-K Through College for Lifelong Success (Sept. 1, 2014) is Danny's follow-up to A?SIMPLE?BOOK?OF?FINANCIAL?WISDOM (2009).
A?BRIGHT?FINANCIAL?FUTURE is what we all want for our children and this easy-to-follow guide delivers its title's promise with Danny's down-to-earth tips and advice - from chore charts to the magic of compound interest - to use with kids as young as age three all the way up to young adults. Twenty healthy values and habits that lead to financial success, plus budgeting, long-term goals, conversations on college, work, and whether money equals happiness and more - this simple financial wisdom will benefit everyone. Ken Coleman, host of The Dave Ramsey Show Video Channel, author of One Question, reviews: "Danny's engaging style makes this practical and hopeful book a valuable resource families who want to instill wise money habits in their children." Jim Stovall, author The Millionaire Map reviews: "Danny draws on his experience as a classroom teacher to deliver sound financial principles in a way that will enable kids to learn, and parents to build wealth into a legacy and then a dynasty." (http://www.amazon.com/dp/1939288630)
The second Wyatt-MacKenzie book with Annie Burnside, FROM?ROLE?TO?SOUL: 15 Steps on the Awakening Journey (Sept. 17, 2014) is a powerful follow-up to SOUL?TO?SOUL?PARENTING (2010). Annie Burnside was called "the Eckhart Tolle of parenting" by Bill Gladstone, agent to Mr. Tolle. In FROM?ROLE?TO?SOUL the author takes it to the next level with her personal reflections on living consciously as a blended being-both human and soul, simultaneously-in everyday life. Annie exemplifies the notion that, "On the awakening journey, we both come to know who we truly are and come to let go of who we truly are not. There is not much more to it than that." Dr. Shefali Tsabary reviews, "FROM?ROLE?TO?SOUL takes us on a journey into authenticity." Jill Schroder, author of Becoming: Journeying Toward Authenticity, states FROM?ROLE?TO?SOUL "...cuts through the linguistic maze of religion versus spiritual paths right to the chase." Visit AnnieBurnside.com. (http://www.amazon.com/dp/1939288576)
Wyatt-MacKenzie has two titles created by kids this fall. THE?FINANCIAL?ANGEL: What All Kids Should Know About Money (Sept. 1, 2014) was written by 9-year-old Ava Kofke (now 10), who was inspired by watching her dad, Danny Kofke, publish his personal finance books. Ava, the Financial Angel, can teach young children about money in simple terms. Kids from ages four to eleven can learn about saving, spending, giving, debit cards and credit cards. Marie-Claire Moreau from quickstarthomeschool.com reviews: "What a charming introduction to economics for kids! Ava Kofke's book literally has the power to begin steering youngsters toward a lifetime of financial literacy. Families, schools and libraries should all be adding this title to the early-childhood section this year!" Jeff Botch, owner of Friday Night Books, fridaynightbooks.com, reviews: "This book gives kids a wonderful introduction to money so they can make wiser decisions throughout their lives. THE?FINANCIAL?ANGEL comes with my highest recommendation."

John Edwards and Barack Obama double-teamed Hillary Clinton at last week's Democratic debate. Hillary's resulting stumble could turn the Democratic coronation into a contest.
Edwards, as he has throughout the campaign, was Mister Hot. He focused on Hillary the courtroom aggressiveness that he kept hidden in 2004. He was perfectly comfortable going after her.
Obama was Mister Cool. Just like he always is. He was perfectly uncomfortable challenging Clinton.
Hillary's halting and contradictory handling of the drivers license-immigration issue hurt. She is now in the same position as Ronald Reagan after his first debate in 1984. The Great Communicator looked old and out of touch then. The stakes were high the next time. But Reagan rose to the occasion with his famous joke about not exploiting Walter Mondale's youth and inexperience. The election was effectively over then.
Another poor performance, and Hillary could be in real trouble.
But if she comes back strong, she could look like Ms. Just Right.
Edwards has made the strategic decision to be the top attack dog against Clinton. The question: Will it make him the leading alternative to her? Or will the strategy hurt both him and Clinton, giving Obama a big hole to run through?

New Delhi, Sept 18: Criticising the stringent labour and business regulations in India, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) today said the country requires timely reforms that will boost its economic growth.
''Although there has been a significant easing of business regulation in India, which the economic performance reciprocated by registering five per cent plus growth rate as compared to 1.3 per cent before reforms, more reforms are required to make the current economic upswing durable,'' OECD's Chief Economist Jean-Philippe Cotis told reporters here.
Mr Cotis suggested free hire and fire policy for employers in order to make them adopt the latest production techniques. ''This will make more people, mainly youngsters who have more technical expertise, get jobs. Those who get fired should be brought into employment through innovative channels developed by the government.'' At present, government permission needs to be taken before an employer downsizes its workforce.
Lack of job opportunities takes the potential workers to small scale sector which is informal and less productive. Only if the formal sector can be made more flexible, the economic productivity will increase, he added.
As a matter of policy, certain products have been reserved for production only in the small scale sector. Also, despite ongoing trade liberalisation, in 2003 India had one of the hightest tariff rates in the world.
Moreover, system of strict labour regulation for larger firms and tax advantages for small firms have led to an overgrown small enterprise sector.
According to OECD estimates, in India, 10 million people will join the workforce annually between 2005-2015.
''Many of the top reformers have 'bunched' their reform into packages so that the net losers from one type of reform may be the net winners from another type. By spreading the net gains from reforms more evenly across the population, such a strategy may help overcome the resistance to change,'' Mr Cotis suggested.
In addition to making the regulations less stringent, the Indian government needs to increase its investment in public infrastructure and in setting up of vocational training centres and educational institutions, he added.
India invests less than 0.5 per cent of its gross domestic product (GDP) in infrastructure development as compared to three per cent by China.
OECD also pointed out that the government also needs to make the product market competitive. ''The competition will serve two purposes of increasing the productivity and services and raising the employement potential for the vast unemployed and under-employed population.''

Nash Bridges' Hemi Cuda
I read where the "Hemi Cuda" that Don Johnson drove in the TV series 'Nash Bridges' recently sold for $148,500.00! The car is actually powered by a 440 wedge dressed up to look like a 426 hemi. The new owner is a 'Cuda collector and knows that he paid way more than what the car is actually worth. I guess if ya got it flaunt it! The article said the car was restored to "TV quality", which means it looks good on TV but don't look real close!
And????? Sorry, but I don't really understand where you are going with this one........
I saw it go for $137,500.00 on the televised portion of the Barrett Jackson auction.Yes ,it does have a 440.It's not dressed up in any way to look like a HEMI.It's a so-so car bought by a so- so hole for way too much money.I mean one of Dale's old race cars went for only $74,000 while some bozo pays stupid money for a fake car?
BUT, But it was Don Johnson's car in some TV show and well how many cars did they have for the show anyway, maybe 3 and this is one so its something, Right? Is the car actually a convertible or is that faked too?
Todd <img src="graemlins/drool.gif" border="0" alt="[drool]" />
Rat Rods Rule!
No its a real convertable. It was a pretty nice car, I'd take it, not for that kinda money, but I'd take it
The fact that Don Johnson drove it doesn't do anything for me. Cheech Marin and Jodi Lyn O'Keef on the other hand do. If I spent that kind of cash for that car Jodi better come with it!
Tm454, good guess, yes there was 3 others. Arn't the pretty all clean and lined up for the family photo?
I saw that auction too. I'm guessing Johnson's car was worth in the $40,000 range, max. It was just a feeding frenzy to impress a movie star. Nuts!
Speaking of DJ, I heard on the radio this week he got busted at a German border crossing. Didn't catch all the details..
I wonder what happened the Miami Vice cars? There had to be a few of the Daytona Spider replicas built by McBurnie, The Testarossa was real, but didn't they have a stunt car on a Pantera chassis, too?
When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila and salt
The first testarossa wasn't real, it was a fab job. Ferrari heard about it and decided to give them a real Ferrari. The Ferarri sold at the auction as well, I think for $82k? Don't remember.
i really liked that show. it was back before i met my wife and i had nothing to do and nowhere to go on friday nights! never missed an episode. pretty pathetic! how could you not like dj and cheech! took some gettin used to to see cheech bustin people for pot! lol! the irony. i dont see any hemi badges on any of those cars, so where did the hemi part come in? HK, where in the hell do you get all these pics? i still dont know why it got cancelled! was i the only one watching?
I watched for a while, lost intrest after the nucklehead did the nasty with a blonde stripper when he was in line to marry the daughter. Now thats just pure stupidity. My fav was the episode where Tommy Chong guest stared as a Triad money launderer. Bull, found that 'cuda shot at NashBridges.com. The hemi part came in because in the story of the show before Nashes big bro went off to Vietnam he gave him the keys to watch for him. To make the car even more special they called it a HEMI because only 4 HEMI 'verts were built, so the story says, I'm not sure on that. The 'cuda only has one HEMI badge and its on the side of the hood shnaz.
From what I've read,9 actual Hemi convertibles,5 auto's & 4 4-speeds,but it's been a while since last time I checked it out.Have a mountain of Mopar only mag's taller than me.Seems like they said the cars that were actually driven in the show were 360 powered.Fuzzy memories.......
Read the opener here http://www.nashbridges.com/cuda.html
Check your Facts
Actually some of your facts are wrong, the 1971 'Cuda that Don Johnson drove in the show "Nash Bridges" was not an original at all. Don Johnson saw one in a magazine and wanted it for the show. They later found out the the 1971 'Cuda wasn't an easy car to find seeing as only 13 were made. The people that made the show contacted Plymouth the original makers of the 'Cuda (know today as Chrysler) and they had 4 replica's of the 71 Cuda made, If you were a fan of the show you would also know that they blew one of those four up in one of the episodes in i believe the Sixth season, which was the last season before CBS cancelled the show because if became to expensive to produce.
Re: Check your Facts
Here and here
Where did you see that only 13 Cudas were made in 1971?
I also have a hard time believing that Plymouth, still had the tooling to make a 1971 Cuda convertible(beings they only made 13 to begin with) and actually agreed to reproduce only 4...sounds like they would have some issues with titling and licensing producing a 199x Plymouth Cuda...
If you could produce the source of your facts, I am sure that we would all like to see also.
i doubt they had original tooling around too, but now they do. you (we) will all be able to buy new metal cuda's and 69 camaro ragtops and a mustang as well soon from aftermarket mfgs as i'm sure we all read a couple of months back in HRM
way to wake the dead, weimer!

love it
By Nikki
from Calgary
my boyfriend bought this for me and I love it. it's a little light and thin but that doesn't bother me at all. I don't see any cloudy spots in the diamond itself. packaging could have been nicer but I'm not wearing that around.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

No sparkle, Thin gold
By Becky
from Brampton, Ontario
This ring looked and felt like it was bought at the [@]. I love and own a lot of Diamonelle rings and all my family and friends think they are real. Lately, I find the new gold line to be more expensive and poor quality. It lacks sparkle and the gold is very thin. I will continue to buy the sterling line. I find that it has more sparkle and the weight of the item is more sturdy.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Looks like glass
By Racingirl6
from Kelowna BC
I was so disappointed. I know that it isn't a real diamond but, they promote it that only a jeweler can tell the difference. Well, it was very obvious that it was a fake. No fire what so ever. However, I did like the style of the setting.

Cloudy and Thin
By canadashopper
from alberta
I have ordered Diamonelle before, and the stone was beautiful and the gold heavy. This ring had a cloudy stone, and felt so light in comparison. Disappointed :(

My very first Davids Tea purchase. And one of the best at that.
This tea saved me last night as I needed a powerful tea to help me stay up all night studying the worst subject ever – ichthyology (study/naming fish x.x)
Dry: visible chunks of almonds and raspberries. Chocolate colored mate with carob pieces. Smells like a million bucks. I cannot wait!
Liquor: Smells like chocolate raspberries! Soooo delicious! Very dark brown liquor. Extremely pleasant chocolate raspberry flavour that improves as the tea cools, with no weird mate peaking through (as I have had problems with mates overpowering the flavour of the tea.. maybe I steeped those incorrectly?)
Overall: My very first Davids tea will be in the permanent collection! Not for nostalgic reasons, but because this is a rocket of chocolate raspberry that is delicious and helps with energy when I need it the most. A favourite.


text: I'm new to this hole forum thing so sorry if this is the wrong spot. I've got a 06 WR450 that I've been having problems with and cant seem to find answers anywhere. Bike doesn't have many mods just a FMF powercore 4 and header and of course 17inch excel rims with Battleax tires. But anyhow went for a ride bout a week ago. Bike ran great. Been running 87 octane gas. Changed to 93 on that ride. Go to ride it 3 days later and it wont start. My batterys been on the fritze for 6 months the contacts were loose so most of the time I'd kick start it. So after my leg got tired I jumped it to my truck and got it started. It was idling rough and backfiring and shooting flames out. So I through a plug in it took off the carb, cleaned it, took off fuel tank and checked screens made sure there was no crap in there. Still same result. So I break down and go buy a new battery and it would start it bout 2 days ago just fine bike still ran like crap. Today it will not start again. So I kick it and first kick it fires right up still runs like crap though and I cant figure out why. Read some things that said CDI could be bad or stator and or they key way on the fly wheel could be broke. I don't have a meter to check voltage with me its at work. Anyone have anything I can do or try thats cheap before I dump a bunch of high dollar parts into it? Thanks

I work in a highly charged target-driven environment with tight deadlines. Sometimes I explode with anger at colleagues or subordinates in order to get the job done. Is this contrary to my Christian faith or simply part of my work?
Catholic moral theology talks of the "passions", those feelings and affections which are part of our psyche and "incline us to act or not to act in regard to something felt or imagined to be good or evil." (Catechism 1762) These feelings in themselves are neither good nor evil but they can contribute to our choice of good or evil. Put simply, we cannot always help how we feel, but we can decide what to do with those feelings.
In your workplace, it is a good thing to meet targets and deadlines and it is possible that someone acting badly or negligently may interfere with this good, thus giving a just cause for reasonable anger. However we all know that because we are not Jesus Christ, and we are affected by original and actual sin, our anger is usually mixed with selfishness, and is often an over-reaction, taking out our own frustrations on others. I think that most respected writers on management would counsel that being angry is not normally the best way to get things done, even if we could justify it morally. You also need to consider whether your behaviour would bring about an action for bullying. Even if such an action were not successful, the time and expense involved would defeat the good object that is sought, of meeting targets efficiently.
Therefore in general it is best to form a strategy for dealing with angry feelings in such a way that they energise you to work efficiently without bearing down on others. If you do "explode", you need to assess things once you have calmed down, and make sincere and genuine apologies where appropriate. If you over-reacted, it helps to admit this in humility, perhaps making joke at your own expense, acknowledging your foolishness. In a highly-charged environment, peace and determination will generally get things done more efficiently than exploding in a rant.

In the September 2002 issue of FLYING magazine there's an article written by a Boeing 767 Captain who flies for American Airlines. The article is about "cockpit automation". He mentions the 3 IRSs (inertial reference systems), the 3 autopilots, the 2 flight management computers (FMCs), autothrottles, autobrakes, etc, etc.
He states that he likes to hand-fly the 767, but by virtue of the design of the airplane it is necessary to use the automation features in order to program a lot of information into the computers.
Then he states that "typing 100 words a minute is a prerequisite for a 767 captain".
My question to you gentlemen is...Why does a pilot of a 767 need to prove that he's able to type 100 words a minute before he can become a Captain?
My girlfriend is an office manager and types around 100+ words a minute. When she hits a keyboard there's almost smoke coming off her fingers! Why would the pilot of an airliner need to have this level of typing skills when programing the cockpit's computers?
Also, does the amount of words per minute required by a Captain depend on the size of his aircraft? For example: Does the Captain of a DC-9 only need to be able to type 38 words a minute?
Any info about this apparent typing prerequisite for an airline Captain would be greatly appreciated, and can you let me know if this only aplies to 767 Captains.
I find this subject rather funny.

Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
I have finally decided to say goodbye to my 2005 Black Raven / Black STS4 1SG. I must say I have enjoyed driving this car more than any other vehicle I've ever owned, but other than loving the car itself, I have had a horrible experience and doubt I will ever own a Cadillac again. I will miss it greatly though.
I work at an automotive group and got this as a trade-in at one of our dealerships. The previous owner was an elderly lady who had the vehicle serviced at Cadillac for every single service it required (or was recommended). She also paid for a full detail every few months. The car was in pristine condition when I picked it up with 72,000 miles.
Here is the timeline of issues I've been through:
I took delivery of the car with no power steering.
My work replaced the steering pump, as Cadillac said that was the issue. It wasn't...
My work then replaced the steering rack.
I informed them then that the transmission was really rough, so they paid for a transmission software update.
Weeks later, my traction control came on every time I made a right turn. The driver's side front Hub assembly was bad. The dealership paid to replace that. (They took care of me for sure.)
The trunk proximity sensor stopped working around this time also.
So I drove for the next 20K miles with no issues, until I opened my mouth and told a friend that the car was great and I haven't had any issues since the initial problems.
I just hit 98K and I noticed some oil drips on my driveway, so I had a technician put it on the lift and boy was I in for a surprise. It was a mess...
Driver's Side valve cover gasket was leaking oil.
Pass Side valve cover gasket was leaking oil. (I had him fix the gaskets and replace the plugs)
Rear Main Seal is leaking
Front Pinion Seal is leaking
Driver's Side front strut (magnetic) is leaking
Pass Side front strut (magnetic) is leaking
Since we put it on the lift, one of the TPMS sensors has also failed and reads: "Service TPMS Monitor."
Needless to say, I've had enough. That's a pretty bad track record for 25,000 miles of driving and I don't want to have to worry about what goes next.
Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
That is what extended warranties are for man....Just saved me a $1,000, got the car 3 weeks ago, took her in for a rear diff drain/refill at 73k, turns out both rear axle seals and the rear pinion are leaking, also slow leak from the water pump....$1,000 job cost me $100...All of what you mentioned is covered on my car until 107k...$60k car and you didn't think anything would ever go wrong???

Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
yeah well you cant drive for free man! just fix the leaks and drive on a couple thousand dollars compared to a new car? its your choice but if your not making payments on it whats a few bills towards fixing it?
Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
In a general sense, extended warranties make money for the sellers. Some Cadillacs make up for a whole bunch of other cars.
My wife's car has had a lot fewer claims than mine but I still expect her to break even. I'm already ahead with 16 months & 20,000 miles to go.
Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
Enjoy your next car.
Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
I Definitely regret not buying an extended warranty, but you know what they say about hindsight...
I've considered fixing it, but I read someone elses post on this forum that replaced the rear main and a pinion seal and they were charged for something like 27 hours labor. With the combined cost of the struts / labor, isn't that approaching a $5,000 bill?
My rear axle seals and rear pinion were just done for $500...for that kind of money I'd just buy a new differential...

Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
My car had an extended warranty on it, and the PO got use out of it, but they freaked out when I presented oil change documentation. The argument they made was you HAVE TO CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3K MILES.
No...no you don't.
I blew it off. Would have covered the car for about 15 months & 17K miles. I'm within a tank of fuel of 100K miles, so I'm not at all concerned at this point.
I hope I didn't just curse myself....
Re: Saying goodbye to my 2005 STS4 1SG :(
The owners manual is a binding document. If you comply with the recommended service, warranties must pay. Glad to hear you have had no need.

Speculation And The Engineering Of The Food Crisis
Frederick Kaufman discovers Goldman Sachs' pivotal role in the rising food prices that have led to a global problem.
Among the reasons cited for the increasing cost of food are American appetites, rising oil prices, and genetically modified crops. Frederick Kaufman believes there is just one main culprit: Wall-Street.
Speculation is a sullied term in light of a worldwide recession. But the basic convention of buying low and selling high plays its part in the functioning of any healthy market economy. And it used to play a welcomed role in the commodities market (food, fuel, and labor), insulating farmers from the natural volatility of the industry as the price of grain was agreed upon even before the wheat was grown. The 'future' of a commodity allowed farmers to hedge against lean times and at other times invest in their businesses. As a result, the real price of wheat decreased over the course of the 20th century and America became a model for successful agribusiness.
But in 1999, the Commodities Futures Trading Commission deregulated future's markets. Kaufman notes that all of a sudden, bankers could take as large a position in grains as they liked, an opportunity that had, since the Great Depression, only been available to those who actually had something to do with the production of our food. Meanwhile, investment bank Goldman Sachs had developed a derivative back in 1991 that tracked raw materials including wheat and soy, before reducing what had been a complicated collection of commodities into a single mathematical manifestation known as the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI).
Once deregulation came into play, the derivative had real, and ghastly consequences:
But Goldman's index perverted the symmetry of this system. The structure of the GSCI paid no heed to the centuries-old buy-sell/sell-buy patterns. This newfangled derivative product was "long only," which meant the product was constructed to buy commodities, and only buy. At the bottom of this "long-only" strategy lay an intent to transform an investment in commodities (previously the purview of specialists) into something that looked a great deal like an investment in a stock — the kind of asset class wherein anyone could park their money and let it accrue for decades (along the lines of General Electric or Apple). Once the commodity market had been made to look more like the stock market, bankers could expect new influxes of ready cash. But the long-only strategy possessed a flaw, at least for those of us who eat. The GSCI did not include a mechanism to sell or "short" a commodity.
This imbalance undermined the innate structure of the commodities markets, requiring bankers to buy and keep buying — no matter what the price. Every time the due date of a long-only commodity index futures contract neared, bankers were required to "roll" their multi-billion dollar backlog of buy orders over into the next futures contract, two or three months down the line. And since the deflationary impact of shorting a position simply wasn't part of the GSCI, professional grain traders could make a killing by anticipating the market fluctuations these "rolls" would inevitably cause. "I make a living off the dumb money," commodity trader Emil van Essen told Businessweek last year. Commodity traders employed by the banks that had created the commodity index funds in the first place rode the tides of profit.
Kaufman's well rounded summary:
Volatility in the food markets has also trashed what might have been a great opportunity for global cooperation. The higher the cost of corn, soy, rice, and wheat, the more the grain producing-nations of the world should cooperate in order to ensure that panicked (and generally poorer) grain-importing nations do not spark ever more dramatic contagions of food inflation and political upheaval. Instead, nervous countries have responded instead with me-first policies, from export bans to grain hoarding to neo-mercantilist land grabs in Africa. And efforts by concerned activists or international agencies to curb grain speculation have gone nowhere. All the while, the index funds continue to prosper, the bankers pocket the profits, and the world's poor teeter on the brink of starvation.

started to go in reverse, and not in small measures either. Nearly 4 million users had stopped playing the game. The reasons cited have been the lack of new things to draw and the lack of incentives to keep playing and winning. Currently, those who correctly guess the subject of a drawing and the person who created the drawing are both given points that they can trade in for more words, more colors for drawing, and for a "bomb" that allows players to more easily guess the underlying word behind a drawing.
Looking to stop the losses and return the game to growth mode, Zynga has just passed along the first update for Draw Something since it purchased OMGPOP. The new UI is supposed to bring a fresh new summer look while a new "special words" feature has been added along with the ability to play the game in 13 languages. And perhaps most importantly, players are now given expiration notices so that you will know when a inactive game will be dropped from your screen. For all of the new game play and features, you will need to sign a new user's agreement with Zynga.
It is hard to remember that we are dealing with a simple little game here when hundreds of millions of dollars are at stake. Still, there is nothing quite like watching another person that you might not know, in a location possibly thousands of miles away from you, look at your chicken scratch and guess exactly what it is that you drew.
Draw Something is available as an ad-supported free game, or as a paid app, in the App Store and the Google Play Store.

Largest contracts for NHL defencemen
Player (Team) Years, Total value
Shea Weber (Nas) 14, $110M
Ryan Suter (Min) 13, $98M
Duncan Keith (Chi) 13, $72M
P.K. Subban (Mon) 8, $72M
Kris Letang (Pit) 8, $58M
Brian Campbell (Fla) 8, $57.1M
Drew Doughty (LA) 8 $56M
Dion Phaneuf (Tor) 7, $49M
Erik Karlsson (Ott) 7, $45.5M
Zdeno Chara (Bos) 7, $45.5M
Source: CapGeek.com
P.K. Subban's new contract puts him on the list of 11 National Hockey League defencemen who will earn US$7-million or more next season. His deal, agreed to Saturday with the Montreal Canadiens, also vaults him into the list of the five richest current deals for defencemen in the NHL.
The breakthrough came after what appeared to be an three-hour arbitration hearing in Toronto on Friday that seemed to leave both sides further apart than before. Once the meeting ended, the league arbitrator was to have delivered his decision on Subban's 2014-15 salary within 48 hours. The two sides had until then to reach an agreement on their own or live with the decision of the arbitrator.
The Canadiens may have had the ability to control Subban's movement for two more seasons, but Subban had the long view on his side, as Post reporter
on Friday:
Subban is a franchise cornerstone. At 25, he has already won a Norris Trophy, and he has already won an Olympic gold medal. He helped the Canadiens reach the conference final last season and is one of the most popular players in the city. The expectation was that the team would secure his rights with a long-term contract. Now, Subban will be a restricted free agent again next year (with the possibility another team will tender an offer sheet to try to pry him away). If he remains with Montreal, and if he signs another one-year deal, he would be eligible to become an unrestricted free agent in 2016. That means a 27-year-old defenceman entering the prime of his career would be on the open market.
To get a sense of how Subban's new deal fits with other long-term deals signed by elite defencemen, we have created interactive charts plotting the deal over time against the other 10 defencemen who will earn a salary of US$7-million or more next season, by season salary and by cap hit. Pass your cursor over any season to see how much each player will cost that year.

With less than one month before Francis Marion University welcomes the multi-platinum and two-time Grammy award-winning country music legend Travis Tritt to the Performing Arts Center stage, tickets to the Feb. 8 concert are nearly gone.
They are still available for purchase at a cost of $50 and the PAC is offering the special limited ticketing options that include 6-seat boxes at a cost of $300, seats covering the area and directly in front of the stage and obstructed view seating at a cost of $30 per ticket.
Box seating and obstructed view seats must be purchased by phone at 843-661-4444 or at the FMU Performing Arts Center Box Office. Pit area seating can be purchased at the PAC website at www.fmupac.org, by phone or in person.
This special show is a supplement to the PAC's regular season slate, which features a line-up of the most memorable performing artists throughout the Pee Dee region. This show is the first announced "PAC Plus" event, one of several anticipated additions to the PAC's regular 2013-14 season schedule, said Laura Sims, director of the PAC.
"Travis Tritt is a welcome addition to our programming for this season," said Sims. "We expect to have others of equal billing to announce later in the season."
The Florence show will begin at 7:30 p.m. and is part of a regional tour in which Tritt will boast his abilities as both a singer and a musician. The show is an acoustical show, featuring a limited backup band. He is set to perform songs from his new critically acclaimed album 'The Calm After...' featuring a duet with his oldest daughter, Tyler Reese. The new project is actually an updated version of Tritt's last album, 'The Storm.'
Beginning his career in the early '90s, Tritt was somewhat of a bad boy with a heart of gold. Tritt's debut album was released in 1990, and he released an album a year for three years before his fourth came out in 1994. Those albums spawned hits such as "Foolish Pride," "Can I Trust You With My Heart?" and "Here's A Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares)."
For more information and a full list of events, pick up a new brochure or visit the PAC website at www.fmupac.org, via telephone at (843) 661-4444, and at the FMU Performing Arts Center Box Office.

Oops, they did it again! Rockford girls varsity tennis qualified for the state finals after accumulating the necessary 18 points to earn the honor. The stage was set back on May 15 when the Rams hosted the OK Red conference tournament. Rockford earned 45 points, finishing third and providing the positioning needed for preferred seeding at the regional tournament this past Saturday, May 22 in Jenison.
Each of the eight flights won their first round in the single elimination regional event. As the day progressed, it started to become a possibility that Rockford would be a contender. All four doubles teams won their second round as two, three and four singles did as well.
It happened to be the hottest day of the season, with temperatures reaching over 80 degrees on the courts. All the players were getting anxious to see if their dream would become a reality. As each flight advanced, it became evident the dream was possible. By late afternoon, after each flight contributed points toward the required 18, it was realized that Rockford had 17 points with one match still to play. Junior Alex Stembaugh, playing three singles, had advanced all the way into the final round. Playing as cool as she did all year, Stembaugh beat her worthy opponent from Hudsonville in straight sets.
"I expected tough competition going into the match," said Stembaugh. "I knew I would have to step up my game."
Coach Tom Huizing stated, "This was a hard-fought season. In the OK Red anything can happen on any day. The same holds true in the regionals. Everyone knew what to do and everyone contributed. Alex was amazing at handling the pressure like a veteran player. I'm extremely proud of the entire team. They did it as a team. They got it done."
It looks like spring tennis is blossoming nicely in Rockford. This will be the third year in a row that the team will be going to state finals under the coaching of Huizing. The entire team is thankful for Coach Huizing, all the community for their support, the parents, the press for covering the action each week, their teachers and friends that came out to see them play, JV coach Val Wallace and their number one fan Loretta Huizing (Tom's mom) who gave all the players and parents encouragement and hope at every game.
It is also the last opportunity for the seven seniors on the squad to play together. As they wind down their varsity careers, they look forward to their new endeavors. All seven seniors are matriculating to college this fall.

Excitement is building as the Junior Company nears their final performances of the year. Last night was our "technical/spacing" rehearsal, the final rehearsal before we add costumes and stage lighting to the ballets. The studio is partially transformed: scaffolding (called "booms") holding the lights are in place; the white backdrop (called a "cyc" -- short for cyclorama) is hung, although not yet stretched out smooth.
At the end of the evening, each choreographer met with the dancers in his or her piece to give notes and work on last minute details. Below, Julie Opiel (left) talks with the dancers in her piece, After all that falling.
Tickets are still available for these performances -- Friday and Saturday evening at 8:00, and Sunday at 7:30 in the Ballet Memphis studios. If you've never seen our Junior Company perform, we invite you to see us at our best!
