text: TORONTO, Oct. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - PetroMagdalena Energy Corp. (TSXV: PMD.V) is pleased to announce it has discovered a new light oilfield with the Copa A Sur-1 ("Copa AS-1") exploration well, located at short distances to the north and south of the Copa AS-1 well. A workover rig is currently at the location and the testing and completion program has begun, the results of which will be provided upon conclusion. Luciano Biondi, Chief Executive Officer of PetroMagdalena stated, "I am pleased that we have a third successful well as part of our Cubiro 2011 drilling campaign and the third consecutive discovery based on the analogy with the Copa and Copa B fields. This well will add to our production growth for the balance of the year and into 2012, and it increases the chances of additional discoveries on the Copa trend in the Cubiro block, our core producing asset in Colombia." Located in Cubiro Block of the Llanos Basin, the Copa AS-1 well, in which the Company holds a 57% working interest, was spudded on September 16, 2011 and directionally drilled to a total depth of 7,572 feet measured depth ("MD"). The top of C7, C5 and C3 Carbonera sections were encountered at depths of 6,241 feet (MD), 5,796 feet (MD) and 5,523 feet (MD), respectively. Well logs indicate a total of 57 feet of net oil sand, 12 feet in two C7 sands, 21 in two C5 sands and 24 feet in two C3 sands. Porosities range from 25% to 32%. Based on 3D seismic, the accumulation discovered by Copa AS-1 is a 1.4-kilometre long structure with an estimated closure of 216 acres, and bounded to the east by a normal fault, the common exploration play in the Llanos Basin. The Copa AS structure is located 2.7 kilometres to the south of the Company's Copa Field, and immediately north of the recent discovery of Copa B, all of them part of the Copa trend. The Copa trend includes additional structures to be drilled targeting the prospective sands of Carbonera C7, C5 and C3.

After I get married, I am going to legally change my name to that of my new husband.
That's right. I'm going to change my name. Goodbye Greer McDonald.
The controversial topic of name changing is an area that has become increasingly fascinating to me as everyone feels the need to tell me why I should or shouldn't change my name.
I utterly respect that everyone's opinion on it is different and everyone has their reasons, but I thought I'd share mine with you.
"You can't change your name because you are a journalist and your name is your brand."
Looking around the newsroom, married female journalists who have changed their by-lines (the name that appears under stories as a credit) are in the minority.
When quizzed, most say it is easier to keep the same byline as that's what readers know them by. Some like the fact they have a "work" name and a "private" name.
Some just didn't change it at all and stayed with their maiden name for reasons including they didn't like their husband's surname, they couldn't be arsed with all the paperwork and associated cost of changing name or just "coz".
My name is my brand. I own greermcdonald.co.nz, my Twitter handle is @GreerMcDonald, and I've dominated Google search results with my various internet guff under the name Greer McDonald. (I feel sorry for the other Greer McDonald who was up there on search results once upon a time...)
But all of that doesn't worry me one bit.
Thanks to my parents, they blessed me with a rather unique first name so I like to think of the next stage of my life as a bit of a rebranding.
Just like a business, it takes planning and promotion - but eventually it becomes the new norm.
Victoria Adams. Remember her? Nah, neither does Victoria Beckham*.
"Changing your name is anti-feminist and you are bowing to the man."
As a colleague pointed out to me, what is so feminist about holding on to a surname which in more times than not, is your father's name?
It's refusing one man's name for another man's, in most cases.
To me, a key cornerstone of feminism is the freedom to make decisions without repercussions.
I am so lucky I live in a society where I can make these decisions as an informed, educated and free woman.
I am choosing to change my name without a gun to my head or fear of reprisal - except for maybe from those who refuse to accept my decision for their own reasons which I do not share. And how fair is that?
"What about your side of the family? Won't they be upset you're 'losing' the name they gave you, their family name?"
In a word, no. I do not and have not ever associated with my McDonald family except for my Dad, brother and nephews who carry the McDonald name. Long story but I have no attachment to my surname unlike many other people I know. And I do understand if 'carrying on' a family name is important where a family say, for example, only had girls or what-have-you.
My name change will mean the end of "Can I have fries with that?" jokes and the taunting of a certain children's nursery rhyme, though.
But then of course that will just be replaced with a whole new repertoire of name-plays because let's face it; all names can be made into something.
"Why don't you hyphenate?"
And sound like a new smoothie on sale at That Family Restaurant? No thanks.
Also, I quite like this piece about what happens when a hyphen marries a hyphen?
So to re-cap: I am changing my name (and, therefore my brand) because I want to have the same name as my husband-to-be.
I'm not "bowing" to tradition but I fully realise and accept what I am doing is historically a very traditional thing to do.
I'm not being forced to do so and I just like the thought of starting our new family together under a solitary name. It's pretty much that simple.
It's a conscious decision I'm making. It's not a political move, or a statement against people "rebelling" against the norm. It's just plain old me making a plain old decision.
There are so many options nowadays though. I read this interesting article in which the writer chose a pretty unconventional way of dealing with the name issue - including when kiddles arrived on the scene. Then there's this great piece about a guy who changed his name to his wife's.
And I know of some couples, including same-sex, who just make up brand new surnames to 'label' their new family. I really like that.
So come the end of the year, Greer Berry will be created. I know, if you say it out loud it's a bit "Grr Brr", lots of E's and R's. It looks funny written down and it's a bit sing-songy (Julia Gulia anyone?). But at least it's not Greer Greer (Greer's more common as a surname). Also, according to Google, there aren't too many Greer Berrys sifting around. Not to mention it's a much healthier food group to be associated with. Brill.
What are your thoughts and experiences on changing surnames?

I love hearing about how people decide whether to change their name or not. Like your friend I recognised that I was changing one man's name for another but the choice was wholly mine. My husband would have supported any decision I chose, but did not want to change his surname.
I looked at the things I liked and disliked about both surnames (both very irish, both insults), made a pro/con list (one was easier to spell than the other), and went with the one that had the extra pro.
With a hyphenated first name there was no chance I was going to hyphenate my surname.
My sister and her husband both changed their names to a hyphenate after their marriage.
I totally agree with everything you've said! I was also told that basically my name is my brand I'll have to re-brand myself. Such a load of rubbish because I have an unusual first name and if I was that wonderful, people would still know where I work. I see it more as an opportunity to call clients and let them know I changed my name and remind them that I'm here if they need work done. We're now going to be a family so I want us to have the same name. Changing my name won't change who I am, just the surname. Are you legally changing it by deed poll or with Internal Affairs whatever you do Greer? I was told to just start using the new name but am quite keen to make it official if it isn't too hard (I heard it was?).
Great post. I went through the same scenario when I got married over a year ago, and I've still barely started the name-changing process.
Once your married, the marriage certificate entitles you to use your husbands last name. So rather than legally changing your name - and loosing your right to your maiden name, just use your marriage certificate to get your new passport in your married name, or change/open a bank account in your married name.
A friend of mine who had worked at DIA told me that this is the case, and there's no need to legally change your name, your marriage certificate is the legal evidence allowing you to use your husbands last name.
I have been married twice, divorced twice and changed my name both times to my husbands name and back to my maiden name and I have 2 beautiful daughters with each of their fathers names. The cost financially isn't that bad and you get to practice your new signiture on all those forms, just remember when you were in high school and you had a boyfriend and you always tried a new signature with his name to see how well it looked, this is just doing it for real. Good on you for being traditional. All the best for your big day
Changed my name for marriage #1 and was very excited to create a new identity as a wife. Left me a very hurt and damaged ex-wife, so refused to change my name for husband #2.
However at a wedding last weekend I was talking to another guest about the name changing, and went into my uusal rant about the cost, the inconvienance, not wanting to have a 3rd surname etc.
My husband piped up out of nowhere that me not changing my name made him a bit sad, and he felt like he was being unfairly punished for my ex being a douche. He'd never mentioned that before, never pressured me to change my name.
So yesterday I went straight to AA and order a new licence as Mrs Husband's Name. Because I'd rather change my name, than hurt the man who made me believe in love again.
I changed my name. I never really considered not changing my name, at least partly because my old name was complicated to spell and most phone conversations which required my surname resulted in me spelling it out at least twice, with some letters phonetically explained "T for Thomas" and "M for Mother". My new surname is more common and easier to spell. We also changed jobs and moved to a new town shortly after our wedding so whilst for the first couple of months I had my maiden name in brackets after my email signature for when I was dealing with someone I'd previously known, it didn't last long and now everyone knows me by my married name.
I changed my name when I married my ex-husband, and changed it back to my maiden name when we separated. I have no regrets that I took his name and didn't consider it to be old fashioned at all. He didn't care if I changed my name or not and considered it to be my decision (one that I made on my way to the church). It's not important what other people think - it's your choice and your decision. Incidentally, my current partner and I will probably get married, but I won't change my name this time as his is really hard to pronounce and spell, whereas mine is nice and easy.
I dislike my last name immensly, but I wasnt to fond of my wifes last name either. Wish we had thought of taking a completely new family name when we got married. My wife wanted to take my last name though, it didnt really worry me either way so long as we both had the same last name.
I was stoked to change my last name from something unpronouncable and also well known in my home town to something easily spelt/pronounced but not really common. Its such a mega PITA though, having to get licences reissued etc - so be prepared to do running around and much showing of your marriage licence lol. However, on the other hand it does feel strange being called/known as another name after so long, but I like having the same name as my husband, and knowing that when our kids come along one day we will all have the same name.
I hyphenated my last name for various reasons and I've had friends who've done the same thing because they didn't want to lose their identity. However both hubby and my last names are extraordinarly Irish so whenever I tell someone my last name the general response is 'whoah...Irish much?!'

Ann Romney said what?
posted at 3:12 pm on April 22, 2012 by Libby Sternberg
Remember how I wrote that Democrats seem to be living in the past, "when the only conservative women you were likely to see on air or in print were variations of Phyllis Schlafly?" What, you don't hang on my every word? You can read it here. It's in paragraph 3,045.
At any rate, when I wrote that piece, I was thinking in terms of Democratic "operatives," the David Axelrods of the world, the spin doctors and spokespeople, who have been stumble-bums in the Republican War on Women war, the one where we're supposed to hate Rush Limbaugh and his minions because they're misogynists or something. Unfortunately for the Democratic warriors, every time the Axelrods yell "charge!" Republican/conservative women end up on the field, striking back with their own accusations of liberal misogyny.
My theory, in case you're not inclined to read my original post—ahem—is that Dems miscalculated on this war-on-women malarkey because they still think of Republican women as variations on Schlafly, a good woman, yes, but someone one associates with a different era, when Donna Reed and Mrs. Ward Cleaver wore pearls while cooking dinner and deferred to their men on everything. Demure and retiring, they weren't the types to yell "sez who" when anyone would question their ideas.
Little did I realize, however, that even Democratic women, youthful women who should know better, might hold that ridiculous view of conservative gals, as well. But it turns out, they might be just as prone to stereotyping as their menfolk.
Consider this: a few days ago, I come across a link on a social media site posted by a liberal woman. An educated liberal woman. An educated liberal woman who's a college professor. The link was to a site claiming Ann Romney had recently said:
"Why should women be paid equal to men? Men have been in the working world a lot longer and deserve to be paid at a higher rate. Heck, I'm a working mom and I'm not paid a dime. I depend on my husband to provide for me and my family, as should most women… and if a woman does work, she should be happy just to be out there in the working world and quit complaining that she's not making as much as her male counterparts. I mean really, all this wanting to be equal nonsense is going to be detrimental to the future of women everywhere. Who's going to want to hire a woman, or for that matter, even marry a woman who thinks she is the same, if not better than a man at any job. It's almost laughable. C'mon now ladies, are you with me on this?"
The poster shared the link with a message saying she'd "sort of felt sorry" for Ann after the Hilary Rosen kerfuffle, but no longer.
Now, did any of you here read the alleged Ann Romney quote above and for one nanosecond think she could have said that? Mrs. Romney would have to be phenomenally backwards or phenomenally stupid, or both, to have uttered those words.
I don't know Mrs. Romney, of course, but I have a hard time believing the spouse of any presidential candidate could be so feckless to utter such statements. The Snopes alarm was ringing in my head by word six.
Yet this liberal college prof swallowed all the words whole. Apparently, so did someone at Daily Kos, too (don't go looking for the page; they took it down).
To their credit, some liberal bloggers pointed out the statements were satire and that Kos had been fooled by them. And the college prof poster took down the link when the truth was pointed out to her.
But let's think a moment about the duped. What does this reveal about them, that they'd reflexively believe such ridiculous statements came from a Republican woman's mouth and mind?
I think it demonstrates just how low their opinion of conservative women is—in their heart of hearts, they believe that we're mindless, stupid, starry-eyed Barbies ready to take our marching orders from the Kens in our lives. Good grief, but that's offensive.
As I've said before, there is a War on Women out there. But it's being waged by the liberals against conservative women.
Libby Sternberg is a novelist. She occasionally blogs at Center Right Side. Her book website is here.
Recently in the Green Room:
Mrs. Romney would have to be phenomenally backwards or phenomenally stupid, or both, to have uttered those words.
Huh? Sounds spot on to me.

Costume Information
|Cost :
|Very little XD
|Time Taken :
|2 hours?
|One of my favourite costumes, but I will probably never wear her again, as much as I love her. Why? Because I used my own hair, and to get the crazy 'Amy Winehouse' look to it I had to backcomb it, and spray it with black hairspray and regular hairspray. Brushing it out was one of the single most painful experiences of my life D:
Despite the epic pain and being dubbed Amy Winehouse for most of the day, I really enjoyed being her :) The Sandman series is one of the few western comics that's really captured my attention, and I just love her quirky character and her gothed up design :) Quite a few people recognised who I was for a change, which was nice too! Asides from the hair pain afterwards, she was really comfortable to wear seeing as the outfit is so simple.
Obviously very little was made - the vest top, jeans, and boots I already owned; the necklace was shoddily made by me, and the main effort went into getting the hair and makeup right. The makeup could have been a bit neater, so sue me.

Blog For Iowa and George Lakoff are tired old dogs that can't learn new tricks
November 29, 2011
By Mike Thayer
Blog For Iowa, the state's faithful liberal propaganda machine is spewing at an increased rate with their latest posting: George Lakoff: It's Time To Occupy Elections
It's a piece trying to encourage members of the Occupy movement, to get in lock step with the Democrat party. He also tries to convince you that any success a person enjoys is owed to the public, a false notion. And here's something any reasonable person can object to, Lakoff ineptly offers contrast and comparison between Occupy and what he grossly mischaracterizes to be a "Right Wing Morality."
Instead of actually trying to learn more about how conservative Republicans think, George Lakoff makes things up. Blog For Iowa perpetuates the nonsense by posting the propaganda. Lakoff and Blog For Iowa are two tired old dogs that can't learn new tricks.
The article is nutjob stuff straight out of the liberal Democrat playbook. Instead of providing substance and example - MAKE STUFF UP! This is all the liberals know how to do. This is a party that gives us platitutes about a need for civility, tolerance and bi-partisanship.... This same party then spews complete horse manure about anyone holding a different point of view.
This guy Lakoff, he's a professor. He TEACHES (shudder) the youth attending UC Berkeley. He PRETENDS that the GOP uses language and the media to dominate public conversation. Like Republicans have encypted speech and decoder rings or something.... The guy is a complete nut job and Blog For Iowa is a collection of nuts for spewing his crap.
Let me give you some examples, you'll laugh, while you pull your hair out.
Lakoff: "All the hundreds of the Occupiers' legitimate complaints and important policy suggestions follow from a simple general moral principle: American democracy is about citizens caring about one another and acting responsibly on that care."
HUNDREDS of LEGITIMATE complaints? That's not accurate at all! And note that Lakoff didn't provide one example, not one complaint or policy suggestion was offered up to support/explain his claim. Why? Because it's complete horse manure, straight out of the liberal playbook. He can't support what he claimed above.
The Occupy movement without question is disgruntled with how our government is "managing" things, their grunting though is by no means legitimate. The key is defining "managing." See the Occupy Wall Street page on the Coralville Courier for multiple examples of illegitimacy. And the latter part of Lakoff's comments: "American democracy is about citizens caring about one another and acting responsibly on that care." More crap, it's feel good baloney, designed to tug on your emotions, not your common sense. First off, we live in a Representative Republic, not a democracy. Democracies always fail. There is no such thing as American democracy, you've been fed a complete line of bull from a liberal professor and others like him. A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine. ~ Thomas Jefferson. Our Founding Fathers were wise men, they avoided creating a democracy at all costs, crafting for us instead a Representative Republic. And let me translate for you what the professor said and what the Occupy movement is really all about: We don't want to work hard for anything in life, we want it given to us.
Mob rule. See Occupy Oakland
More nut job rhetoric: "The Public has been what has made Americans free - and has underwritten American wealth. No one makes it on his or her own. Private success depends on a robust Public."
Lackeeoff couldn't BE more wrong. Does this guy even CARE to know American history? Individuals made this country great and a free people. It wasn't a Borg Collective that crafted the country, it was hard working men, women, inventors, farmers, entrepreneurs, soldiers and craftsmen working towards the same goals that made this country the greatist nation on earth. Private success doesn't depend on a robust "Public," it depends on FREEDOM.
More Professor Lakoff *teachings*: "The rationale for the Occupy movement is that all of this has been under successful attack by the right wing, which has an opposing principle, that democracy is about citizens only taking care of themselves, about personal and not social responsibility. According to right-wing morality, the successful are by definition the moral; the one percent are taken to be the most moral. The country and the world should be ruled by such a "moral" hierarchy. Except for national security, the Public should disappear through lack of funding. The nation and the world should be ruled for private profit alone – and by force."
The notion that the Occupy movement is only about people taking care of other people should be rejected outright. And no reasonable person objects to true need social responsibility. The professor is trying to put new window dressing on the bogus liberal Republicans want toxic air, dirty water and have old ladies eating dog food" argument. And there's some irony here. If the professor was right in how the Occupy movement is about public *caring*, then why have there been rapes, shootings, drug overdoses and numerous assaults in the tent cities? If the professor was right, then why do members of the Occupy Movement kick the homeless out of the parks they're in? The Occupy Wall Street protesters in New York's Zucotti Park for example were feasting on organic chicken, smoke salmon, spaghetti Bolognese, roasted beet, sheep's milk-cheese salad and wild heirloom potatoes.... Word got out and the homeless tried to blend in for the good eats. They got kicked out and the menu suddenly changed to peanut butter sandwiches to turn the homeless off. In Occupy Salt Lake City, protesters got the homeless booted out. A freeloader is a freeloader. Occupy can put up tents, but the homeless can't?
And then there's Lakoff's version of morality. Noting the ironic lack of it by Occupy protesters in their treatment of the homeless, Lackoff defines "Right Wing Morality" as, "the successful are by definition the moral; the one percent are taken to be the most moral. The country and the world should be ruled by such a "moral" hierarchy. Except for national security, the Public should disappear through lack of funding. The nation and the world should be ruled for private profit alone – and by force."
That's COMPLETE crap! Not only is this guy wrong, he watches too many Hollywood movies and obviously doesn't even try let alone care to learn the truth before he spews. And it's not "Right Wing Morality." Like "American democracy," there's no such thing. The man is making reference to conservative Republicans. The TRUTH is, the morality part of it is, conservatives believe in the ability of an individual to create and achieve. And if individuals have the freedom to create, achieve and be successful it transcends to the family. Hard working successful men and women can provide for their families much better than the government can. Strong families aren't in need of government assistance, they're independent of it and that's a GOOD thing! It's the basis of this country. Strong families are in a position to offer help to their extended family if needed and neighbors as well. Strong families contribute to churches and community organizations. Regular readers have seen the following: If you need help, go to your family. If your immediate family can't help, go to your relatives. If your relatives can't help, turn to your neighbors. If your neighbors can't help, ask your church or a community organization. That's how this country is SUPPOSED to work, government is an absolute last resort! THAT's what conservatives stand for, STRONG, independent families that HAVE NO NEED for government handouts. Dependency is a bad thing so the more STRONG families we have the better! And Lakoff's notion that "Right Wing Morality" means "the PUBLIC should disappear for lack of funding" and "the nation and world should be ruled for private profit alone - and by force," is nothing but emotionally charged b.s. (Barbra Streisand). No conservative has said that, let alone believes such garbage. You would think a PROFESSOR would provide an example to support his claim, but Lakoff didn't. Hmmmmmm.....
The ONLY thing that Lakoff got right was that there are two opposing principles at play here. Everything else he wrote was complete garbage.
The Occupy movement represents not having to work for anything, rudderless demanding, chanting, jazz hands, chaos and the coming mob rule. Say, did you see the story about the lady that pepper sprayed other shoppers on Black Friday to get what she wanted?
Here's a little story that says it all......
She replied, "I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people." Her parents beamed with pride.
"Wow...what a worthy goal." I told her. "But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my driveway, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house."
She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?"
I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party." Her parents still aren't speaking to me.

This episode marks the third appearance of ManRay, although his first without a major leading role.
During part of the story with Sandy, the anchor symbol on SpongeBob's hat disappears.
This is the second time the Pipsqueak Patty was shown or mentioned.
At first, Patrick's shirt said "I'm With Stupid", but in the next scene the sign wasn't there.
As seen in "Mermaid Man Vs. SpongeBob," Barnacle Boy has dandruff.
In one scene of "Mermaid Man Vs. SpongeBob," there is a long line waiting outside of the Krusty Krab for Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, but the line disappears and isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
During Sandy's version of SpongeBob's re-telling of his fight with Jack M. Crazyfish, he tells her he knocked off his hairpiece, which caused him to run away in tears. However, Jack M. Crazyfish was not wearing a hairpiece before SpongeBob kicked it off and is not seen wearing one in any of the other scenes he's in; he only wears a small, green hat.
The brainwashing shampoo by Plankton is similar to the brainwashing shampoo idea in Kim Possible.
SpongeBob: (about Jack M. Crazyfish) He is real.
Plankton: Oh, no. Those infernal Krabby Patties. Their grease-fried deliciousness could be enough to free Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy. (Plankton turns a switch to slap Mermaid Man from eating a Krabby Patty. He makes him throw one away and then stomp on the other. Then they walk out but are stopped again by SpongeBob.)
Squidward: The Krusty Krab welcomes... (reads the card in his hand) the Tarpon twins' birthday party. Here are your Krabby Kids Meals. (all the kids dive in and take Squidward with them)
Plankton: Never trust kids, Squidward. Never trust kids.
Plankton: Hey, everyone, I made Chummy Joes!!!
Mr. Krabs: Uh, hey, kids. Uh, well, there's Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy... in the ball room. (all the kids run inside the ball room and Mr. Krabs closes the door behind them to keep them inside) SpongeBob?
SpongeBob: Yes, sir.
Mr. Krabs: Go get those AWOL do-gooders you talked me into hiring and bring their putouts back here on the double.
SpongeBob: Aye aye, Mr. Krabs.
Mermaid Man: We cannot escape, Barnacle Boy. He's too strong. Like the unbeatable taste of a Krusty Kids meal. (Manray's maniacal laughter stops)
Manray: The delicious new treat no mortal can resist?
Barnacle Boy: Yup.
Woman: Um, guys? Guys? The train!
SpongeBob: Whoa, stop. (horse stops) There, there. You're safe now little lady. (maniacal laughter coming from a man)
Man: You fool. You've falled into my trap. Now you're mine, SpongeBob the strong.
SpongeBob: So, we meet again, Crazyfish.
Jack M. Crazyfish: Bring it on.
(SpongeBob is riding on his horse, and muscular, and is saving a woman tied on the railroad tracks screaming)
Woman: Help!
SpongeBob: Hey, yah!
Woman: Help, help.
SpongeBob: Oh, my gosh! You guys live in a dump.
Plankton: You two look like a couple of ladies men.
SpongeBob: A tough guy can go to work at any time.
SpongeBob: That is exactly what I mean, Patrick.
SpongeBob: Go away, Gary, I'm busy.
SpongeBob: Why didn`t it work? I know! Their aged bellies can`t digest the krabby patties.
SpongeBob: (about Jack M. Crazyfish) You've never seen anyone like this guy, Patrick. He was about 60 feet tall. Yeah, he was big and mean. Oh, but ol' SpongeBob here knows how to teach a lummox some manners.
Patrick: What did you do?
SpongeBob: I handled him the same way I handle all enormous muscle-bound villains.
Patrick: With tears?
SpongeBob: No, with a little this! (kicks in the air) Hiya!
Patrick: There goes the hero.
Plankton: (sees Karen in the Krusty Krab) Karen?! My own wife?! Ooh, how Krabs bought me!
Karen: (rolls in with a Krabby Meal) Hi, honey.
Plankton: What's that? A souvenir from your boyfriend, Krabs?!
Patrick: We'll settle this like men! We'll sue him!
SpongeBob: (after all of the confusion) For a second there, I thought I gave my self a... (trips on lid, causing the wrench to hit his eye) ...black eye.
We learn that Jack M. Crazyfish is real at the end of "Blackened Sponge."
Plankton doesn't appear in "Blackened Sponge."
Character Debut: Jack M. Crazyfish.
This episode is available on the To Love a Patty DVD.
Sandy makes a cameo appearance in "Blackened Sponge."
The music used for the battle between Fry Boy (SpongeBob) and brainwashed MM&BB is the theme song for the International Justice League of Super Acquaintances (IJLSA) from Mermaid Man & Barnacle Boy V.
When SpongeBob is throwing stuff out of his drawer to look for a wrench, you can see SpongeBob has a 'I'm With Stupid' shirt.
Larry is not in the episode, and Sandy doesn't appear in "Mermaid Man vs. SpongeBob."
This is the second episode where Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy make an appearance without the title being named after them.
This is Perch Perkins' season five debut.
Featured Alias: SpongeBob as Fry Boy and Plankton as Professor Plankton.
Kid's Meal: Box
When it shows on the Kid's Meal box Mr. Krabs, it's similar to the KFC Fried Chicken boxes with Colonal Sanders on the box.
SpongeBob's toothpaste is called Krust, which could be a parody of Crest, a common brand of toothpaste.
In "Mermaid Man vs. SpongeBob," towards the end, Plankton walks out and says, "Hey, everybody, I made chummy joes" similar to the hamburger industry Sloppy Joes.

St. Mary senior guard Patrick Hubert has been selected as the Kentucky Association of Basketball Coaches Player of the Year for Region I. He will also represent St. Mary in the 2014 KABC Senior Charity East/West All Star Basketball Game.
Hubert is the first boys basketball player in St. Mary High School history to be recognized as the KABC Regional Player of the Year.
"This selection is a tribute to how hard Patrick has worked over the last four years," St. Mary head coach Greg Overstreet said. "It is also reflective of his teammates. They know he is capable of scoring a lot of points, and they've done a great job of getting him the ball when he's open."
He is a four-year varsity starter for the Vikings. Hubert, the Vikings' leading scorer at just under 20 points per game, recently eclipsed the 2,000 career point mark.
He will be presented the Player of the Year award on March 21 at halftime of the first game of the afternoon session of the Sweet 16 state tournament in Lexington.
He will suit up in the East/West All Star Game on Saturday, March 22, at 1 p.m. EST at Transylvania University, prior to the semifinals of the KHSAA Sweet 16. Hubert was selected by a vote of regional coaches.
While drawing interest from several colleges, Hubert is undecided on his college plans. He is the son of John and Paula Hubert of Grand Rivers.
The Vikings return to action on Tuesday and will open Second District Tournament play against Paducah Tilghman at McCracken County High School at 7:30 p.m.

CES: Intel claims processors will outsmart human brains within a decade
Learning chips to have more transistors than human brain has neurons in near future
LAS VEGAS: Computer microprocessors that are capable of reading and reacting to human emotions will become a reality within the next 12 years, according to Intel's senior vice president Mooly Eden.
Eden said current innovation levels within the technology industry mean that within the next decade microprocessors will have more transistors than the human brain has neurons, during a press keynote at CES in Las Vegas.
"The human brain has 100 billion neurons, it's a complicated machine. But in 12 years we will have more transistors in our chips than we have neurons in our brain," he said.
Eden added that the processors will also have a very different focus to today's processors and will use the extra power to do more than simple calculations. "We are on the verge of a major revolution that will change the way we interact with computers forever," he said.
"A large part of our brain is used for processing our senses. In contrast most of the processing power in a chip is used for calculations; that's going to change. We're narrowing the gap between what we can do with our computer devices and what the human brain can do. Soon our computers will be able to read and react to our emotions."
Eden's comments come just after Intel unveiled its new RealSense 3D camera. The camera is designed to be embedded into laptops, PCs and tablets and will let them capture and stream images and video in 3D. Intel claims the camera is the first step in a campaign to change the way people interact with machines.
Eden said he expects the RealSense camera and future advanced chips to be a small step in a wider shift within the computer industry. "Today, we're surrounded by computer devices – PCs, laptops, tablets or smartphones. But all these devices are part of the past and the present. The question is what does the future hold and where are we going," he said.
"I believe it will be a world of devices. Devices we'll always have with us, devices on the cloud. But they won't be devices we carry with us, they'll be on us, we'll wear them. But it won't stop there. Soon they'll be in us, it's not a matter of if but when. Soon we'll open car doors with our fingers and have devices in us that are connected to our brain."
Intel president Renee James made a similar prediction at the McAfee Focus event in 2013. James warned that chip companies will have to improve and rethink their existing security practices to ensure the forecast wave of implanted devices are safe from hackers.

It turns out burning your homework is a crime
While burning your homework on the last day of school is certainly a strong symbolic gesture of passage into the care-free summer months, it's also considered arson by Seattle Police.
From the files of "those darn kids," Seattle Police investigated two homework burning incidents on the last day of school, June 14, and one of them resulted in the arrest of a minor for possession of drugs and weapons and a separate charge for arson.
The first incident didn't result in any arrests, but it did result in a few chuckles as Seattle Police searched for three kids near the intersection of California Ave. S.W. and S.W. Lander. Police, from their Twitter account, joked that their sketch artist already had a composite sketch ready for their suspects. In actuality, it was a screenshot of Beavis and Butt-head, characters from the MTV cartoon of the same name.
In the second event, police were driving through Schmitz Park around 6:30 p.m. on June 14 when they smelled smoke, according to SPD.
"Officers then came across a pile of charred school papers, leaves and twigs, and saw a teenage boy running away up a nearby staircase," SPD's Jonah Spangenthal-Lee wrote.
Officers caught up with the teen and upon searching his backpack, found marijuana cigarettes, baggies of marijuana hidden in a deodorant container, brass knuckles and "several strange yellow capsules and a small scale."
The teen was booked into the Youth Service Center for arson, drug possession and a weapons violations. Officers called his grandmother with the news.

text: Dec 28, 2008 - At first, it was very disappointing because made my hair too puffy after a few hours. Several of the other reviewers have mentioned this problem. But I found a way to counteract that: I apply it in the shower when my hair is sopping wet, and I mix it with honey! Somehow, that combination prevents the puffiness from forming. Now it is perfect all day. No puffiness, no frizz, perfect definition. It's now the best of the many products I've tried.

It didn't take long for Jason Whitlock to become topic A in Bristol.
This morning, ESPN issued a statement, saying his comments towards Sports Illustrated's Thayer Evans were "not acceptable."
"We have discussed Jason's comments with him. They were personal in nature, they do not represent ESPN and they are not acceptable based on the standards we have set."
Tuesday, Whitlock went on an Oklahoma City radio station and blasted Evans, who along with George Dohrmann is writing a series of stories about improprieties in the Oklahoma State football program.
ESPN has media policies in place about how its employees should address the competition. As in they really aren't supposed to comment or criticize other media.
However, they are allowed to weigh in if it warrants discussing media coverage of a particular story. Even then, they are asked to follow certain guidelines.
The policy contains this line: "Comments must not be personal, vicious, dismissive…No cheap shots."
And then there's this: "No personal attacks or innuendo toward people, media companies, networks or publications."
Now you be the judge about whether Whitlock crossed the line with comments about Evans to an Oklahoma City radio station.
"Knowing the lack of competence that's there with Thayer Evans, knowing the level of simplemindedness that's there with Thayer Evans, to base any part of the story on his reporting is mind-boggling."
Does that fall under the category of a personal attack, juror 1?
And then there's this from Whitlock.
" … Let me end by saying this and I honestly mean this without malice. It wouldn't shock me if Thayer Evans couldn't spell cat and I say in all seriousness."
Ding-ding-ding. Sound the cheap shot bell. I still love how he insisted that line was meant "without malice."
Finally, Whitlock blasted "the brand of sports writers who love doing these investigative pieces."
Yep, didn't exactly go over well with ESPN's many sports investigative reporters, who are among the best in the business.
I don't respect the entire brand of investigative journalism that is being done here.
To add the whole dynamic, Whitlock sought a forum for his comments with a tweet inviting Oklahoma radio stations to give him a call for an interview. Not that he meant any malice.
Obviously, Whitlock veered from ESPN's media policy on many different levels. The network responded to quell any internal fires as much as anything else.
Several of his new teammates talked about a double standard. They speculated what would happen to them if they went on the same rant.
"I'd be fired," a staffer said.
Since Whitlock might not be current on ESPN's policies, he likely received a lecture filling him in on what is acceptable at his new place of employment.
It might be a while before Whitlock comments about the competition again. And if he does, it definitely will be without malice.

Ferris Institute Holiday Announcement. (December 1912.)
Christmas in the morning, Christmas at noontide, Christmas in the evening, Christmas all day long. Christmas for the children, Christmas for the mothers and the fathers, Christmas for the hopeful, Christmas for the hopeless, Christmas for the living, Christmas for the dying, Christmas for the immeasurably rich, Christmas for the unutterably poor, Christmas for the toiling millions. The call of the Carpenter is awakening the whole world. The peoples of the earth are having a new birth, a new vision. Christmas means fellowship and fellowship means brotherhood. The call of the Carpenter is "thy kingdom come" here and now. The Carpenter's kingdom is the kingdom of self-respect. He who has learned to respect himself, respects all men. In this kingdom men love justice. In this kingdom men render service. The earth is man's treasure-house. Before her laboratories closed, countless treasures were produced for the use of all the children of men. In the kingdom of fellowship all men labor. Without labor there can be no abiding joy. The call of the Carpenter is the call for a universal democracy. This call we here in the laughter of childhood, in the benediction of father and mother when comes the morning for "breaking home ties," in the gratitude of children in father and mother for a thousand and one tokens of love, in the gratitude of loyal men and women for the divine privileges of fellowship, in the thanksgiving of loyal men and women to the Father of us all for his manifold blessings. A Merry Christmas now and forever to everybody.

Breast Reduction TT- MB
After being on the waiting list for a little over 6 months, I received a call from the Dr's office with the news that I have an appointment in May. I had a consultation and decided a breast reduction would help with the constant neck pain, lower back pain and bra straps cutting into my shoulders. I am currently a 36G and am 5'3, 200LBs. This reduction is covered through Manitoba... READ MORE

In the past, I've had dealers tell me to trade before 75K or 60K or 50K or 3 years, etc. From your experience, is there a best time to sell or trade a car or truck before the value plummets? Do the price / age and price / mileage graphs look linear or like hockey sticks?

I realize that no one has responded to this thread, but I found a link with oodles of Christmas pictures that I want to share:
yes, some very nice Christmassy pics. I liked the ones of the Christmas trees toward the end, the best.
I wonder if this thread will get more attention when people see my Swedish star and candelabras this year.
Candelabra is a weird word; candle is c-a-n-d-l-e, but candelabra has the e before the l.
those are really pretty, MW!

Some of the most important of these smart MCU-based subsystems are
the ones devoted to mixed signal operations. Working in tandem with a
mixed of ADCs, DACs, inductors, capacitors, and linear components, MCUs
aid in making decisions in real time on when, how and in what form to
convert analog signals into and from digital form.
Teardown almost any
consumer device, such as the gyro sensor in a
mouse, video glasses for an iPod or a mobile handset with a
slider, display and MP3 player, and you will find such smart
mixed signal subsystems.
From a collection of general purpose MCUs, DACs and linear devices,
mixed signal subsystems are now part of what TI's Jacob Borgeson calls "Hyper-Integrated MCUs." Highly
optimized MCUs now incorporate all the I/O peripherals, registers,
memory functions and even hardwired instructions needed for such
A good example of how well mixed signal-optimized MCUs can perform
in the hands of an imaginative embedded systems developer can be seen
in ESD Magazine's "Oversampling with averaging to increase ADC
resolution," where Maxim's Franco Contadini describes how an
optimized MCU can be used to extend the resolution/accuracy of an
embedded ADC by using oversampling techniques to deliver an extra bit
or two.
But joining super-integrated MCUs are a variety of smart mixed
signal configurations: programmable SoCs that bring a high degree of
flexibility to designs. Some recent design articles on Embedded.com
describe their use in a variety of applications, including creation of smart drivers to reduce energy
use and PCB clutter, digitally control
analog power in multiload applications, high performance auto
electronics, smart meters,
4G chipsets, buck-boosting LEDs,
and touch/
proximity sensing in handheld consumer devices. Good
reading!!! (Embedded.com Editor Bernard Cole, firstname.lastname@example.com)

|Property type
Relax on the balcony and watch the sun set behind Strawberry Mountain. Wake up to a bedroom view of Glacier National Park mountains and Lake McDonald. Walk across the street to Glacier Wilderness Guides and book a day of whitewater rafting, guided hiking, and/or horseback riding.
Beautiful upstairs apartment with an open kitchen and living room, private bedroom and bathroom, granite countertops and wood floors. Pure serenity.
Keywords: Newly built single apartment with amazing views of Glacier Park and Lake McDonald through the bedroom windows, and Strawberry and Desert Mountains from the deck. Beautiful construction with wood floors and granite countertops. Located one mile from the entrance of Glacier National Park and across the road from Glacier Wilderness Guides/Montana Raft Company.
If you are lucky, you may enjoy the site of deer or elk grazing in the meadow outside your window.
My wife and I planned a trip to GNP and stayed 4 nights in early October. After doing a lot of research, we were nervous about going after the majority of the park had shut down, so we wanted a place that no matter how the day went, would be a nice, comfortable place to relax. This was definitely the right choice!
Prior to arriving, I emailed Lindsey and she was quick to respond with recommendations on where to go for grocery shopping and directions. We were going to arrive after the normal check-in time but she was very flexible and everything worked out great. The loft was beautifully furnished and cozy and true to the VRBO description and pictures. Based on other reviews, we knew to bring everything we would need (food, toiletries, coffee!) and had no issues. We did prepare all our meals in the loft, including packing lunches for the trail. Based on previous reviews, we knew to purchase any spices we needed for cooking, which was very easy to do in small quantities at the Super 1 that Lindsey recommended. I would recommend that if you have a question about something specific, send Lindsey an email beforehand. It is located in West Glacier, so be prepared to spend a good bit of time in the car if you are going to be hiking in the Many Glacier area, but we found it was a great base camp. It is very close to Lake McDonald, any groceries / stores you may need, a gas station just down the road, and Going-to-the-Sun Road. More specifically, the loft is located at the top of a hill with great views from the bedroom / living room. Pending the weather, you will be able to see some great sunrises / sunsets from the comfort of the loft! In slightly warmer weather, there is a nice little balcony with a view over the field and mountains in the distance.
If you visit GNP, you will not regret choosing this place to stay!
Lindsey was super helpful and patient with our confusion over directions and over which of their properties my parents were supposed to be staying in. She was polite, flexible, friendly and accommodating, and while my friends and I camped and got chilly at Apgar within the park, my parents were toasty and happy
in this charming apartment with its unsurpassed views! And we were only an easy ten or fifteen minute drive from each other. This is a great spot! Many thanks!
We enjoyed our stay. Location convenient for visiting glacier park. Nicely setup for a couple. Kitchen well equipped. We loved sitting on the deck.
This property has a 360 degree view of mountains. One wakes up in the morning to look out at the mountains of Glacier National Park. We are day hikers and this was the perfect place as a "base camp". You are just a 5 minute drive to the entrance of West Glacier National Park. It was wonderful to come back at night and relax in the apartment. This apartment had all the amenities and then some.
Lindsey was very helpful in recommending a place to shop for those with celiac disease, it was a fantastic find for the area!
We definitely will come back to this apartment when in the area.
My wife Katie and I had a wedding party at Snow Moon Ranch on August 20, and the site couldn't have been more perfect. From the absolutely gorgeous setting atop a grassy hill with amazing 360 degree views that include incredible vistas of the peaks in Glacier Park to the wonderfully warm lodge and apartment (both of which were super well-equipped, clean, and fabulously maintained) that easily accommodated ten of us to the conveniently accessible location that also allowed for all kinds of recreation and tourist activities, the property couldn't have been better for us. It was the ideal spot for our very special day and was the very best setting for a weekend of wonderful memories. We also greatly appreciated the fantastic recommendations from the owner for all of our party needs. Thank you, Lindsey. We will wholeheartedly recommend Snow Moon Ranch to all of our family and friends, and we will look forward to another stay ourselves.

Pros: Great location for GNP visitors, beautiful view of the mountains, updated rooms, clean, nice layout, laundry. Cons: Basic amenities missing: no coffee, no body soap, no facial tissues. Thankfully there was toilet paper. The front door requires a PHD in Advanced French Door Mechanics - required a lot of practice to figure out how to lock from the outside (can't imagine doing this in Montana winter), and never figured out how to lock from the inside; the doors blew open in the middle of the night. Bed and sofa sleeper are old. Most linens worn out.
Five minute drive from Glacier National Park, 30 minute drive to Whitefish, and 35 minute drive from Kalispell International Airport. Mountain biking, whitewater rafting, doglsedding, spa all within 45 minute drive.

Hi guys, I have a quick question regarding element 3d. When submitting an element 3d template, are we allowed to use the environment maps that come with the plugin? Or we have to use our own environment maps?
That's all, thanks in advance!
Good question, i want to know as well. Bumping the thread
I think that your question is in a grey area.If I m not wrong there isn't a specific rule for the use of basic assets delivered with the plugin.I would say to build your own map if you can, this will give more control of the reflections in your file, and user will have and extra environment map to play with in other files.The main priority of the license regarding template is that the user MUST have the plugin.As always in those case, support is the way to go…Hope this help,
Agree with flashato
Yeah it's better to create your own map, cos existing maps doesn't give good quality for the project as far as I know.
Thanks for the help I'm working on a project and I'm getting the results I want with the included maps. So it would be much easier to use the included assets. It would be very nice to get a staff reply on this
Hi NeuronFX,
You can click on the "Request Staff Reply" button to get your answer.
Yes tried that, waiting for reply
I agree with flashato~
Any update to this?
I would really need a fast reply since I'm about to submit the new item. If we can't, can someone recommend a good place where I can find good maps that I can use in my items?
Environment maps that come with the plugin are allowed because they come with the plugin. When you purchase Element 3D you get build in envoirment maps and you don't have anything with that because it's comes with Element 3D.

Supplying Model Makers since 1895
Telephone us on: 01508 549330
OcCre's impressive model of a Soller Tram is a 1/24 wood and metal kit containing all the parts necessary for making an accurate replica.
Photographic instructions make building easy.
Dimensions: Length: 435mm Width: 125mm Overall Height: 235mm
Mallorca's first electric tram, running between Soller and the Port of Soller, was inaugurated on 4th October 1913.The project for this line was designed and directed by Pedro Garau, with over two and a half miles of track being laid. One of its outstanding features was the iron bridge over the Torrent Major.To begin with the tram line had its own electrical power plant, alongside the Soller station. This power plant was driven by a 65 HP explosion engine, which drove a dynamo that provided DC power at 600 volts.The model tram we present is the AAB FHV-2, belonging to the company Ferrocarril de Sóller, S.A. Built in 1929, the mechanics by Carde & Escoriaza and the electrics by Siemens.The tram uses a pantograph to pick up the electrical current, a voltage of 1200 Vcc. It is fitted with 4 Siemens-Schuckert traction motors with an output of 360 kW (90 kW x 4) and is also fitted with both electrical and vacuum braking systems.
Please note the display base and motorization kit are both sold separately.
