IT was a small step, but a significant one.
At around 8am (AEDT) on Saturday, before the obligatory family barbecues and citizenship ceremonies were under way across the country, the Aboriginal and Australian flags were slowly raised on the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Full Australia's Day honours list here
It was the first time both flags have flown side by side atop the bridge on Australia Day.
But while the iconic bridge may have become a symbol of unity for the day, many Aboriginal people see little reason to celebrate January 26, which also marks 225 years since the First Fleet arrived.
About 50 people marked the day near the famous tent embassy in Canberra by announcing that the country's first Aboriginal political party, formed in the Northern Territory two years ago, would contest this year's federal election.
There were calls for people to stand up for their rights and end the NT intervention program, but no repeat of the angry protests that marred last year's Australia Day celebrations in the nation's capital.
In Sydney, NSW Governor Marie Bashir said Captain Arthur Phillip knew he was an intruder who would change the lives of Aboriginal people forever.
''We are walking together, I believe, as one people,'' she said of steps being taken toward reconciliation.
The message of ''one people'' rang true today for the more than 17,000 people from 145 countries who took the citizenship pledge to become freshly-minted Aussies.
At a ceremony in Canberra, National Australia Day Council chair Adam Gilchrist told a crowd that new citizens will enjoy all the opportunities Australia can provide.
''There's no doubt we are richer, we are stronger and a more egalitarian country because they and many others choose to come here,'' he said.
The Canberra ceremony kicked off with a parade of the Federation Guard and the playing of the national anthem.
The ceremony was attended by Australian of the Year Ita Buttrose, Young Australian of the Year Akram Azimi, Senior Australian of the Year Professor Ian Maddocks and Australia's 2013 Local Hero Indigenous leader Shane Phillips.
Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Governor-General Quentin Bryce looked on as the Australian flags were raised and a group of Hawk 127 aircraft flew overhead. A 21-gun salute resounded over the capital.
Almost 100 people from 22 countries were taking part in the citizenship pledge in Canberra.
Ms Gillard, who was born in the UK, said she was a proud member of the millions who had taken the pledge since 1949.
''As migrants - all four million of us - we did not just adopt a new country,'' she said.
''This is your new country, and you'll never want another. Welcome to citizenship. Welcome to Australia. Welcome home.''
Ms Gillard also gave one Englishman a kiss on the cheek, when he became a citizen.
Ian Mears from London was wearing a tie saying "Kiss me I'm Aussie", and the Prime Minister gave him his Australia Day wish.
World-renowned British actor Miriam Margolyes, known for her roles in the television comedy Blackadder and as Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter films, was among those to take the pledge in Canberra.
''I'm just very happy to be here, and I will be with friends and the rest of my life will be joyous,'' she said.
Thousands of new people were welcomed at citizenship ceremonies in each state, and families were encouraged to soak up the fun and atmosphere at a variety of free events.
Opposition Leader Tony Abbott told an Australia Day breakfast and citizenship ceremony in Adelaide that new citizens are changing the country for the better.
Change should be welcomed ''when it's in accordance with the customs and traditions of our people'', he said.
Thousands of people turned out in Sydney's CBD to watch The Wiggles unveil their new line-up, as indigenous artist Jessica Mauboy performed on a floating stage in Sydney Harbour.
In Tamworth, country music fans lined the town's main drag for an annual cavalcade that celebrates both Australia Day and the finale of the iconic 10-day country music festival.
There was less fanfare in Queensland, where Premier Campbell Newman warned Australia Day revellers to batten down the hatches as heavy downpours threatened parts of the state with flooding.
Gladstone was declared a disaster area, while mini-tornadoes damaged scores of buildings and injured up to 20 people in Bargara, Burnett Heads and other townships in the Bundaberg district.
Deputy Prime Minister Wayne Swan said the second anniversary of the Queensland floods this year reminded him of those who pulled together to help friends and strangers faced with losing everything.
''The Australian spirit is never stronger than when we face these kinds of events together,'' he said.
Victorians were reminded to remember the volunteers spending their Australia Day fighting blazes in some parts of the state and dealing with the aftermath of others.
Thousands of Tasmanians gathered for a concert at the same pub in Dunally, in the state's east, where ferocious bushfires tore through the region earlier this month.
Local Mayor Kerry Vincent said despite the horror the bushfires brought with them, the community was coming together in the spirit of solidarity.
In Western Australia, more than 2500 new citizens from 92 countries took the pledge at more than 80 citizenship ceremonies around the state, including the second-largest in the country, at Wanneroo in Perth's north.
About 300,000 people are expected to attend Perth's Skyworks display on the Swan River tonight, up 50,000 from last year thanks to milder weather.
The city has enjoyed a 36C degree maximum, compared to 2012's sweltering 41C.
Overseas in Afghanistan, Aussie troops sent their recorded messages to loved ones via video link.
In the United States, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton wished all Aussies a safe and happy Australia Day and reiterated that the US remains a committed partner and friend.
"As you celebrate your national day with loved ones, know that the United States stands with you as a committed partner and friend," Ms Clinton said in a statement received today.
"I wish all Australians a safe and happy holiday celebration and continued peace and prosperity in the coming year."
Ms Clinton said her recent visit to Australia for the annual AUSMIN talks had reminded her of the strong bonds that united the two countries.
"We are cooperating on more issues than ever before, from strengthening security to space exploration, from expanding educational exchanges to increasing trade and commerce," she said.
"We are also working tirelessly to advance the causes of freedom, democracy and prosperity in the Asia-Pacific and across the globe. All of this is reinforced by the ties of family, friends, values and principles."

Rebecca Black's Friend (To Her Right) Benni Cinkle Speaks Out
Rebecca Black has been pop culture fodder and a "trending topic" for the past week with her so-bad-it's-not-really-good viral video for her song silly song 'Friday.' Due to the overwhelming amount of questions she has been getting via her Tumblr page, Black's friend Benni Cinkle, who sits to Black's right in the back seat of a convertible in the video and even gets a shout of from the singer in the inane lyrics, has spoken out in a video interview.
Cinkle is the girl in pink whose awkward dancing inspired the creation of countless gifs across the Internet, and Cinkle even has a favorite gif of herself playing an accordion. She did admit that seeing herself in that form is both "cool" and "odd" for her. Well, that's obvious, since this whole 15-minutes thing is probably super new to her.
Anyone who has watched the video knows that sitting in the front or the back set of the car is a perplexing choice for Black. Overall, the song and the video are confectionery fluff manufactured by a production company for the teens. The video allowed Black and her high school pals to play the part of pop stars for three minutes.
That's why Cinkle, 13, good-naturedly answered a lot of the public's burning questions about her, the video and Black, as well as any giggly teen can. She says that, "We all go to school together and we all know each other and are good friends." The rapper who appears in the middle of the song is named Patrice and he works for the production team, which, by the way, told her to be "silly" and "weird" in the video.
She also, like, loves Justin Bieber and cops to owning a cardboard cutout, bracelets two calendars, a Bieber doll and having seen his movie — twice!
Other profound topics explored in the video include the dancer's braces (they are coming off in a couple more months), vegetarianism (she's meat-free, having been introduced to the lifestyle by her hardcore vegan uncle), and her name (it's Bennett and she goes by Benni). Benni is also asking people to create videos of themselves dancing like her and post them in the comments section below the video interview. She'll pick her favorite and then video chat with the winner!

It's not all that uncommon for Philip Lim to go out on a limb when it comes to seeking his own inspiration. By keeping things under a familiar tough note, the designer found a modern way to reinterpret Danny Lyon's captivating black & white photography, and to capture its mere edge essence for pre-fall 2013. Lim's unique vision didn't involve a literal translation of the raw outlaw bikers' outfits, as it was more about borrowing some of the untamed attitude and relaxed spirit surrounding their quest.
As he pictured a seasonless wardrobe, that is both tough and light, Philip Lim went straight for the oversized concept that he cleverly used to re-work the iconic varsity jackets. Bold phoenix motifs were chosen alongside gun-metal bugle beads, to embody some of the motorcyclist's wild aesthetic.
In a game of contrasting subtlety and high-impact, Philip Lim's pre-fall 2013 collection managed to steer in the right direction, focusing on uplifting garments that effortlessly mix edge with an unmistakable sense of elegance. It's all about a well balanced wardrobe, meant to be functional, timeless but still irresistible modern. The Philip Lim woman is independent, tough but impeccably styled as she follows her own journey. She knows exactly what she wants, and so does Philip Lim.
You can see all of the 3.1 Philip Lim pre-fall 2013 collection by clicking on a thumbnail on the left. From there you can browse through each of the pictures from the collection.

Mini Bird Cakes
Mini dummy cakes for a "tempting tables" display. Tempting Tables is a fundraiser for Breast Cancer research. Designers decorate tables very elaborately for the public to come in a view. My mom, Catherine McClung, is an artist has designed patterns for Lenox China. She used her china to decorate one of the tables. These bird cakes sat at each place setting. The bird designs are hers, but I cut the design out of fondat, layering it with different colors to get the effect.

I just picked up a Liquid A1 for 200 notes .. lots of places selling them off at the moment. As far as I can tell there's no change in hardware and it has the same 2.1 update as this .. £200 for a full-fat Android handset is a bargain.
Why are some of the shots showing 1.6 if this phone runs 2.1?
Also, while £350 isn't exactly cheap it's definitely not high end either (hello £499/£599 iPhone 4!). You compare it to the Legend which is basically old tech kitted out in a shiny outfit but I'd argue that the Legend is actually overpriced for what you get, premium materials accepted.
Good on them for not customising it though.
You'll have to admit that compared to the FAR better-specified Samsung Galaxy S (http://www.trustedreviews.c..., which is currently available for under £400 sim-free, this is overpriced...
Definitely. I don't think it's worth £350 but was just making the point that £350 isn't really high end.
The Desire and Galaxy s can be had for £319 from O2 on PAYG. Now that's a bargain. My mate managed to 15% staff discount off that too.
@ravmania: is that in-store only? I can't see either handset on O2 PAYG on their site:
it possible to drop vanilla android 2.2 on this?
...:( when will Phone OS's behave like PC OS's!!!!
Saw them both in the O2 store in Westfield.
Android phone looks good but can crash and erase everything on the phone, so that is a minus. It also takes minutes to load some pages. Some days I don't get no text messages.
So for now, this phone has too many glitches and I regret buying it. I rate it a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10.
I just got this phone 2 days back & let me tell you that acer needs to work a lot .......I initially replaced 2 phones & the 3rd one which i have too is having some issues which include-:
1) Automatic restarting of the phone while on call
2) Battery life really sucks
3) charging takes a lot of time
4) Phone get heated up a lot when applications are used for may be 20 min at a stretch
I am gonna replace this phone and go for some HTC phones....but this was totally unexpected from acer....

text: Mining board postpones hearing on silo permit By Ken Ward Jr. September 10, 2005 Story Share The state Surface Mine Board on Friday postponed next week's scheduled hearing in a case over a controversial Massey Energy coal-storage silo adjacent to a Raleigh County elementary school.Board members delayed the hearing after the state Department of Environmental Protection sought a court order to block Massey lawyers from interviewing DEP mining chief Randy Huffman prior to the hearing.In the case, Massey is challenging a DEP order that blocked construction of one of two new silos at its Goals Coal Co. subsidiary near Sundial.Board members had been scheduled to consider the case Tuesday and Wednesday.Fran Ryan, the board clerk, said board members would probably reschedule the hearing for their monthly meeting in either October or November.On Thursday, DEP lawyer Perry McDaniel asked Kanawha Circuit Judge Duke Bloom to halt Massey's planned Friday afternoon deposition of Huffman.McDaniel argued that Huffman should not have to answer questions about his discussions with DEP staff or the governor's office about the order blocking the Massey silo. In late August, the mine board had denied McDaniel's request to prohibit Massey from asking Huffman such questions.McDaniel told Bloom in court papers that if Huffman were forced to answer, "executives at the DEP will be chilled in future communications."All discussions will be held as if totally in the public eye," McDaniel wrote. "While some may argue that public agencies should be totally open, the result will be sterile communications."No idea or regulatory option that may create public concern or disagreement will even be discussed," McDaniel wrote. "Totally public deliberations will create inaction, not more democracy." McDaniel also argued Massey lawyers were trying to use their appeal of the silo order — and their deposition of Huffman — to aid a civil rights lawsuit that company President Don Blankenship filed against Gov. Joe Manchin.In his lawsuit, filed July 26, Blankenship alleged that Manchin violated his free speech by threatening to selectively enforce laws against him and his business interests. Blankenship alleged that Manchin was retaliating against Massey for Blankenship's opposition to the governor's pension bond proposal, which was voted down by state residents on June 25.The lawsuit specifically cited the DEP's decision to revoke the Goals Coal silo permit.But just five days after the pension bond was defeated, DEP Secretary Stephanie Timmermeyer approved a permit for the silo. The DEP later suspended the permit on July 15 and rescinded it on July 26. The agency took those actions only after The Charleston Gazette and a citizens group lawyer pointed out the silo was planned outside the company's legal permit area.The Goals Coal operation is next to Raleigh County's Marsh Fork Elementary School, and the second silo is just 220 feet from the school's property line.Under state and federal law, no new mining operations are allowed within 300 feet of a school.After the first silo was built and when the second one was proposed, coalfield residents and activists objected, saying the facilities were too close to the school.DEP officials dismissed those complaints and said the silos were exempt from the 300-foot limit because they were within the permit boundary of an operation that existed prior to the passage of the federal Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act on Aug. 3, 1977. But before they approved the silo permits, DEP officials did not go back and check original permit maps to make sure that was correct.Maps submitted to the DEP, and a subsequent site survey funded by the agency, show that both silos are located outside the company's legal permit area, DEP officials now say. Bloom did not issue a final ruling on McDaniel's request. The judge asked both sides to submit more detailed legal briefs on the issue.

" Brand: Morrisons / Type: Baking Aids "
Morrisons Double Concentrated Tomato Puree
Description: Manufacturer: Morrisons.
Okay so tomato puree is never going to be one of those things that changes your life, but it is certainly something that we eat a fair bit of in our house. Whether we are adding it to pasta dishes, using it for pizza bases or just adding to casseroles, we actually get through a surprising amount so it is a bit of a kitchen essential.
A 200g tube of this tomato puree cost me just £0.40 in my local Morrisons which was less than half the price of some of the competing brands. I had a quick scan of the ingredients (tomatoes and salt, no hidden nasties!) to try and establish whether there was any difference, and found that they contained exactly the same things! The Morrisons variety avoids excess packaging too, so that you simply buy the metal tube, which isn't contained in a cardboard box. Cheaper and more environmentally friendly - how could I refuse?!
The tube is a bright red colour with pictures of delicious looking tomatoes all over it. The screw off lid if red and you have to pierce a seal before using, which assures you that your product is as fresh as it can be. Once opened, store in the fridge.
The puree is rich and thick and squeezes out of the tube easily with no fuss or mess. It has a lovely tomato aroma which smells natural and fresh and a great deep red colour.
Tastewise, the puree is delicious. It has a rich and sweet tomato taste which is well seasoned and perfect with pasta. We like to make a simple sauce with tinned tomatoes, mushrooms and parmesan and the puree complements it perfectly and quickly thickens it to the right consistency too.
This is one of those products that there really is no point in spending extra money on, just save the extra cash for more exciting things and give this one a try!
I use a lot of tomato puree because I do my own pizzas, put it in stews and even add it on top of cheese on toast if I fancy a change from plain melted cheese. We've usually got Napolina in our fridge but this week my mum brought the Morrisons Double Concentrated puree.
It cost 39p and comes in a normal metal tube like most other tomato purees. The puree is a very rich red colour and smells delish when you squeeze it out of the tube, it's got a lovely sweet smell that is also a bit vinegary at the same time.
It squeezes out easily and also spreads good with a knife, when I did a pizza with it the other night I was careful not to put too much on because it spreads so good that you only need a small amount. Because of it being double concentrated you can also be sure that even if you're only using a bit of the puree then you're still going to get a rich strong flavour.
I think the flavour of this puree is perfect. It tastes so strongly of fresh tomatoes and has got a delish sweet flavour, it's as good as Napolina and in some ways I prefer this cheap Morrisons puree because of the sweetness that takes some of the taste away from the tomato.
Everything I've tried it with has been fine, the first day we brought it I squirted it into chicken stew and it gave the gravy a yummy mediteranean flavour. If you're using it for pizza squirt some into a bowl and mix some dried basil or oregano in, leave it for a bit before you spread the puree on the pizza base and it will give it a bit more of an Italian flavour.
We use tomato puree a lot in our house as it's full of flavour and really makes sauces rich and tasty!
The one we buy is Morrisons Tomato Puree which is double concentrated and weighs 200 g.
The price at the moment is 40 p but it changes a lot...
The puree is sold in a recyclable red metal tube with green and white writing on it. It is not sold in a box so that is better for packaging therefore the environment as well :)
The tube comes with a little red top that you pierce the metal sealed lid with and it screws on.
There is a best before July 2011 so it last ages and we keep in the fridge once opened and it has to be eaten in four weeks...
The only ingredients are tomatoes and salt and the puree comes out of the tube as a thick red splodge like a red snake, lol!
Made in Italy and has only 82 calories per 100grma this is really healthy. High in sugar at 18.6g it doesn't taste sweet though tomatoes are a fruit.
There is 0.4g of fat on 100g as well so good for dieting!
Puree is great to add to sauces and stews and soups and I use it when I make a bolognaise plus I add it to my Pot Noodles for an intense flavour!
Really red and really rich this is something you need to dilute as it is very strong. It is a product that can be added to so many things for a tomato essence and you don't need a lot to make a difference...
5 stars from me for a good tasty product from Morrisons that you can do a lot with!

Re: Setting up Payee information in Bill pay

Good afternoon!
With any bank, there are some payees that the bank doesn't have a digital payment agreement with. For those, what happens is they get the address and a contact number from you, and the bank sends out a paper check, via paper mail, to that payee for you.
I used this, for example, with my landlord a long time ago. It went to her in a plain white envelope with no distinctive markings - she tossed it the first time she got it because I didn't know what it would look like *grin* and couldn't warn her what to look for. I didn't even think about that possibility. You are not doing anything wrong; T-Mobile will just get a paper check, and you will need to allow a bit more time for the check to get there.
The good news on this is, you still have a free payment method, and you don't have to pay for the stamp. If you want it truly electronic and it won't work that way from the bank; you could go in each month to their (T-mobile's) website and have them do the equivalent of an EFT withdrawal which should also be free.

WILKINSBURG — Apollo-Ridge raced to a 34-0 lead in the second quarter and never took its foot off the gas in a 56-36 thrashing of Wilkinsburg in a WPIAL Eastern Conference football game on a sunny Saturday afternoon.
Wilkinsburg finished with three more rushing yards than the Vikings, 269-266, but couldn't keep up with Apollo-Ridge's passing attack.
Jesse Zelonka completed 11 of 16 pass attempts for 141 yards and two touchdowns. He hit Tre Tipton with a 12-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter and Alex Smith with a 19-yarder in the second.
Tipton caught seven passes for 68 yards and added two interceptions on defense. Smith finished with two receptions for 45 yards.
Duane Brown put the Vikings on the board first with a 6-yard run. Tipton scored his touchdown, Zelonka added a 5-yard rushing touchdown and Smith's score put Apollo-Ridge ahead 27-0.
Brown just about put the game out of reach when he picked off Ryan Cox and ran it back 50 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter.
Wilkinsburg didn't help its own cause, committing 12 penalties for 101 yards and coughing up the ball four times.
The Vikings outgained the Tigers, 411-366 in total yards, but the game wasn't as close as the stats showed.
After halftime, Jonah Casella increased Apollo-Ridge's lead to 41-8 with a 1-yard rushing touchdown in the third.
Casella scored again in the fourth on a 6-yard run, and Gareth Dilick had a 61-yard touchdown run to round out the Vikings' scoring.
Casella rushed for a team-high 122 yards, and Dilick added 72.
Apollo-Ridge (1-1) welcomes Western Beaver on Friday.

Oh hell yeah cotton mouths like boats. Especially if they smell like fish and are warm and sunny. Myself and Moses are the only two people in the world to walk on water because of damn cotton mouths moccasins.
The Difference Between a Cottonmouth & a Water Moccasin | eHow
Want a good fight down here? Ask if the Cotton Mouth and Water Moccasin are different snakes? Good for a laugh anyway. Hell yeah their the same. Poison is part of the problem. My neighbor catches loads of fish, I keep telling them to heave the remains in the woods for the coons. They keep tossing the guts off the dock.
Every other weekend they ask me to come over and shoot a moccasin in their yard. Stop feeding the damn things. They eat dead stuff, mainly fish. So when they strike, you get some poison and a load of bacteria from their mouth, bad combo platter for the Docs to fix.
Coral snakes are here but they have to chew to inject venom, some bad dudes. Worst rattler I think is in Arizona or the desert out west somewhere? Small rattler I caught a show on. Bad to the bone.

April 2008 Windows Updates
Let me see a show of hands. How many of you have already installed the Windows Updates for April 2008? I hope most of you are raising your hand, because this month's updates are as important as ever. As you may know, a total of eight updates came through, with five of those being categorized as "critical" and the other three as "important." A few standard updates were included as well, including the Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool. Okay, let's check these out, shall we?!
In all honesty, once I read through all of the updates, I was pretty baffled. Most of them are a little difficult to understand, so I'm just going to give you the basics. Four of the critical updates dealt with issues happening in different versions of Microsoft Windows. Depending on the operating system you use, you received the updates designed specifically for your system. A couple of them also fixed problems in Internet Explorer and various MS Office programs. The three important updates included patches for Windows and MS Office as well.
Like I said before, some of the updates are hard to understand, but if you want to see a complete rundown of everything that changed on your computer this month, check out this Web site. It explains everything in full detail. All of these updates are very important to have on your computer, so if you haven't installed them yet, I urge you to do so soon. Otherwise, you will be unsafe for a whole month and I really don't want to see that happen. Be kind to your computer and get them today, my friends!

Great Software - Saved a Crashed System! 10/10/2005
This review is from: Acronis True Image 9.0 Home
Other Thoughts:
My wife's laptop's Hard Drive died. The boot sector went south and she didn't have any backups of her data.
True Image created a Bootable CD with their own OS that can read USB drives, FAT, FAT32 and NTFS. I was able to backup all the necessary files without using Windows. Very Cool Stuff!
Well worth the price!

Using AC, fan never turns off
Hi All,
My Trane system (with 19i compressor outside) has a T803A thermostat. I have the FAN set to AUTO. When running the AC and the desired room temperature is reached, the fan continues to blow....never turning off...blowing at 100% speed.
If I raise the SET TO temperature up one degree (or more), the thermostat's internal relay can be heard to click, and within seconds, the fan stops running. But subsequently, when the room temp increases to the new SET TO temperature, the AC comes on, the fan blows, the room cools down, etc. But again, when the 19i compressor shuts down, the blower/fan continuous blowing mode at 100%...never turning off. This condition is similar to setting the fan "ON" all the time....and clearly not what I want. Thoughts?
Either T-stat problem or Control module for your blower.
just because the indoor temp matches the setpoint on the thermostat does not mean that the a/c should shut off. Todays thermostats have close tolerances. If you set it at 70F it may not turn on until 70.5 and may not shut off until 69.5 while all the time showing 70 on the thermostat. The blower should slow down. The 19i is a 2 stage system and contains 2 compressors are you sure it has not dropped down to first stage when you think it has shut off? It could be that you have 1st stage problems with your unit. It could be that it is not wired properly. Is this a new system?
Understand your thoughts on 70.5 & 69.5 showing 70....and the fact that the 19i is a two-stage unit. But you probably agree that when the fan is set to AUTO, it will turn off once in a while. Mine does not. If left alone, the fan will run 7/24. Buttttttttttttt..... Under two conditions the fan will perform the on/off that it should when set to AUTO: (1) when I raise, the temp 1 (or more) degrees (like I wrote initially), and (2) if I pull the thermostat off the wall and then re-insert it. In both cases, the fan will perform an AUTO on/off once or twice, then revert back to never turning off.
I'm thinking it's the thermostat. Is there a reset (to factory) button on that thing?

The Girl I'm Dating Chews With Her Mouth Open – Daily Dilemma
Here is Today's Daily Dilemma:
This may sound stupid to a lot of people but it really is a problem for me.
I just started dating a girl I'm really attracted to. She's pretty, smart, and I like her a lot. There's just one problem: She chews with her mouth open.
I've actually started sitting right next to her when we go out to restaurants, just so I don't have to watch her chew.
Am I being shallow and over reacting? Would you keep dating someone who's good-looking, smart, and funny if they chewed with their mouth open?
And how can I tell my girlfriend that the only way I can keep dating her is if she closes her mouth when she chews?
The "Daily Dilemma" on the Sean and Richie Show is featured every weekday morning at 6:40am. We and the listeners take on someone's problems and try to offer different perspectives. Now, these don't have to be huge problems- it could just be something bothering you or a friend, or it could be some little thing you and another just can't agree on. If you have a dilemma to share we'd love to hear it just e-mail us here at the show.

A few days ago, I had the chance to represent Youth Now and share SSE with students from around the world at the International Youth Council's Campaign Night at the United Nations. Youth delegates had the chance to listen to speakers from a few non-profit organizations, including the WE Campaign, Roots and Shoots and many others. The Campaign Night was part of the larger annual IYC Youth Assembly, which brings together international students to focus on global sustainable development. It was awesome! Students from multiple countries–from Nigeria, to Taiwan, to Canada–all showed great interest in this network. I believe that the goals of IYC, which is to "inspire the youth of the world to act and give them the tools to make a difference," perfectly embodies our SSE vision. Energy consumption is a universal problem, so let's work together with those from all over the globe!
Learn more about the Annual Youth Assembly here.
"The Annual Youth Assembly at the United Nations focuses on young people championing humanitarian causes around the world and how to become involved, taking action for what you believe in. The youth assembly is an annual project of the Friendship Ambassadors Foundation (FAF). TheInternational Youth Council is the official network of the Youth Assembly at the United Nations."

I took my car in for a oil leak and cold clutch judder two days ago and was told it would be taken care of under warranty. BTW my clutch problem has been there since about 6K miles(no mods at the time) they just fianlly found a fix for it(ie. sevice bullitin 3-51-02). I got a call today letting me know that because of modifications the warranty would be void and the probelms would not be covered. This was from a buddy of mine who works there no less the service writer hasn't even called me yet.
My modifications at the time are uppipe, downpipe, scoobysport muffler, and a set of intercooler hoses, the rest are pretty much for looks(ie, springs, wheels and leather). If this isn't someone trying to make money I don't know what is. The mechanics don't make as much money if they do work under warranty as they would if they didn't cover it. SOA doesn't overpay like the consumer does.
So basically what it comes down to is they will do anything they can to get out of doing work under warranty. What exactly does an exhaust have to do with cold clutch shudder and an oil leak, maybe someone here can clarify for me.
I seem to remember the rs' having problems with oil leaks caused by a bad cam seal at about the same mileage as mine too. Anyway I just wanted to warn anyone before they thought of taking their car there. I guess I'm gonna have to find a new dealership for service next time.
Thanks for letting me vent-James

text: Does anyone have the JD MMM lockup kit installed on a 2520, and working with the Manual Diverter valve? I have been using a couple clevis pins & turn buckles to hold up the manual MMM linkage arms when the deck is removed to keep from destroying them when you back up while they drag the ground, but now that I have added the Manual diverter valve, it takes up the space where the turn buckle was, and uses up the hole in the ROPS support that I had the top clevis in. So before I buy the very costly JD lockup kit I want to be sure it will work & fit with the JD Diverter valve installed. The dealer does not know as they did not even know there was a lockup kit until I gave them a part number LVB24962.

Cartoon Network Stars Clash In 'Super Secret Crisis War!' Alternate Interlocking Covers [Art]
Writer Louise Simonson and artist Derek Charm's six-issue Super Secret Crisis War! is set to bring Cartoon Network stars from from Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack, The Powerpuff Girls, Ben 10, and Ed, Edd and Eddy together in story this June, but Troy Little will be stacking the crew on his alternate covers for the series — interlocking covers, to be exact. Unlike some of the more landscape-oriented interlocking covers we've seen in the past, Little's stacking his cover art 2 comics wide by 3 comics tall for an image fit for a wall scroll (or just a conventional poster). Get your first look, after the cut.
Full Image
Super Secret Crisis War! #1
Though the book's exact plot is still under wraps, it seems likely based on this image that Samurai Jack's nemesis Aku could be at the heart of everyone's problems. We'll know for sure when Super Secret Crisis War kicks off in June, with tie-in one-shots for Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Johnny Bravo, Codename: Kids Next Door, and Cow and Chicken join the fray in July.

As a follow-up to a hardcore classic, The Witcher 2 retains the distinctive charm of the original while trimming back the excess. Its combat system isnt as complicated and its world isnt as open-ended.
This could read like a list of negatives on paper, but, in execution, these cuts have produced a fantasy adventure that feels focused and significantly more polished. And compared to its recent rivals, Assassins of Kings has handled the jump to greater accessibility with more finesse.
If we have to make a single criticism, however, its that The Witcher 2 leaves you wanting more than it offers. A 40-hour completion time isnt anything to sniff at, but when this includes most of the side-quests, you cant help but draw comparisons to the lengthier epics of BioWare and Bethesda.
The Witcher 2 is a game that shoots for the sun while its rivals are still lining up their sights on the moon. Its an AAA RPG with an indie soul, and a charged, exciting adventure you can really sink your teeth into, admire, and for the most part, love. From the raw technical wizardry of the engine, to tent walls rippling in the breeze and villagers running for cover when it rains, its a game built with burning, red-raw passion and exactly one goal. To be the best RPG ever, whatever it takes.
Ultimately, it falls short of that, but not without giving it a damn good go. Over its 20-30 hours of almost relentlessly superb moments, Witcher 2 raises almost every bar it can get its hands on. Its let down by only two things: an undercooked combat system, and a story resolution that it actually hurts to watch. The rest is simply amazing, from the beautiful writing to the gorgeous visuals, meaningful choices, and a world that feels like a real place that exists beyond the games limitations.

German Breweries Are Going Flat
FOR GERMANY'S BREWERS, this isn't a time for merrymaking. Traditionally, Germans flock to a Biergarten in the summer to hoist liter-size mugs and belt out drinking songs. Yet although Germans still savor more suds than anyone else but the Czechs, they are tipping back less than they used to, often reaching for mineral water instead. With nearly 30% overcapacity and half of the country's 1,278 breweries in the red, analysts see a major shakeout looming. Only 600 to 700 will survive by decade's end, predicts Michael Dietzsch, president gf the German Brewers Assn.
So brewers are forced to adopt new strategies, such as producing low-calorie and nonalcoholic beers. In a country where no label has more than a 5% market share, some are pushing beyond regional niches. For instance, Bitburger, whose tangy pilsner is made in the Eifel area south of Bonn, is bidding for a wider following by sponsoring Formula One racing.
Others are hoping the German reputation for good beer will carry them into international markets. Now, only 7% of German beer is exported, with Beck's and Holsten accounting for 40% of the total. Although giants on the order of Heineken and Anheuser-Busch are entrenched in key locales around the world, German brewers are eyeing growing markets for suds in eastern Europe and Asia.

Canada may escape election in first half of year
By Randall Palmer
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Some opposition Liberals still talk about the possibility of quickly bringing down Canada's minority Conservative government, but the prospects of an election before the autumn seem to be receding.
The government, elected in January 2006, is already the fourth-longest minority in Canadian history and has survived a series of confidence votes with the help of the main opposition Liberal Party.
The Liberals are letting the government win confidence votes this week on the budget, the combat mission in Afghanistan and climate change legislation, and indicated they would only trigger an election in coming months if the polls shifted dramatically.
"You go when you can win. It's very simple," Member of Parliament Bryon Wilfert, a key adviser of Liberal leader Stephane Dion, told reporters as he entered the weekly Liberal caucus meeting on Wednesday.
"I don't think anyone is in a position to win right now. We're both in the low 30s," he said, referring to the percentage support the Liberals and Conservatives have in opinion polls.
On Tuesday, in announcing that the Liberals would not bring the government down this week over the budget, legislator John McCallum said the party would consider its options in April or May. "Later on in the session, all options are open," he said.
He also expressed some discomfort in continuing to have to support the Conservatives, whether by abstaining or by just having a few Liberals vote against the government but not enough to topple it.
"I think we are accepting the leadership of our leader and we are happily but slightly uncomfortably voting the way we have been voting," McCallum said. Continued...

Anne Hathaway: I Look Like My Gay Brother in "Les Mis"
Showing some love to her Japanese fans, Anne Hathaway arrived at Narita International Airport in Tokyo earlier today (November 26).
Sporting a green cardigan sweater and big black sunglasses, the "Princess Diaries" dame signed autographs and posed for photos as she kicked off her promotional duties for "Les Miserables" in the Land of the Rising Sun.
In a recent interview, Anne showed off her sharp wit when asked how she reacted to having her gorgeous head of hair shaved for her Les Mis role.
Ms. Hathaway nonchalantly declared, "When I eventually looked in the mirror, I just thought I looked like my gay brother."

Rovio Making Game Of The Croods
IGN reports that Rovio (Angry Birds is working with Dreamworks to create a game based on The Croods.
The game will be out on iOS and Android on March 14, just a week before the film is released on March 22. The game has players "hunt & gather their way through spectacular new landscapes as they tame fantastic and never-seen-before creatures. Help The Croods survive the wild…and each other!"
Rovio executive vice president Petri Jarvilehto said: "DreamWorks Animation's The Croods is filled with wonderful characters and creatures in an incredibly detailed, inventive world — it was just begging for its very own mobile game! It's been an incredible experience having our two teams working closely together on extending the story to mobile platforms."
It's based on the 3D Film starring Emma Stone that focuses on a pre-historic family forced out of their cave as they search for a new home.

Forest Avenue in Orono is closed Saturday night after a single car accident.
Orono police said a male and female were in a pickup truck when their car went off that road and hit a telephone pole.
The pole was broken in half and wires were on the roadway.
One person was taken to EMMC and the other taken to St Joseph Healthcare.
Orono Police Sgt. Scott Scripture said, "Right now were trying to establish the injuries and the protocol because we believe alcohol was a factor of this. Right now were trying to work with hydro to replace the power and phone company to get the poles up and open the road."
Orono police are investigating the accident.
Officials said the road should reopen early Sunday morning.

The NP30 is a sublime performer across the board. From 192kbps MP3s up to 24-bit FLAC and WAV files, this unit displays a level of control and refinement that sets it apart from the majority of Blu-ray decks with similar streaming functionality.
It's obviously at its best with FLAC and WAV. With our test tracks the NP30 ekes out minute little details and textures like the subtle rasp of a vocal or the pluck of guitar strings – stuff that goes largely unnoticed with inferior formats on inferior players.
But even with 320kbps MP3 and WMA files the NP30 excels, imbuing songs with an open feel, exceptional clarity in the higher frequencies, rock-solid bass and midrange, and a generally smooth character. Feed it a laid back jazz or soul song and the sound is fluid and soothing, but flip to an uptempo dance track and it bursts to life with impressive energy and an impeccable sense of rhythm.
We also can't fault the streaming performance. Not once during our test did the Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection drop out – we were simply treated to long, uninterrupted periods of musical bliss. That's great to know if you're leaving internet radio or streaming services playing in the background at a party.
The quality of web radio varies greatly according to the bitrate of the station, with almost none delivering what you'd call audiophile levels of quality, but none of the stations we sampled gave us anything less than enjoyable sound.
The Cambridge Audio NP30 is a first-rate network music player – easy to use, beautifully built and a highly competent performer. What's more, its £400 price tag seems like an absolute bargain compared with the wallet-busting prices of high-end streamers from the likes of Naim, Yamaha and Musical Fidelity.
These expensive rivals might provide even greater musical refinement, but the NP30 is a top-notch performer in its own right. So if you're after an affordable network player that streams your digital music library and web radio with no fuss or bother, then the NP30 is a fantastic choice.
The Squeezebox touch manages more or less the same functionality including 24-bit/96kHz FLAC in a much smaller physical footprint for about 60% of the cost. And supports Spotify.
Completely agree with above - Squeezebox is the way to go. I tried using UPnP and it's a total fail with anything but the smallest of music libraries.
Looking at the unit I'm guessing they're going for a more techphobic crowd and selling on the sound quality. To me the pixel display is unnecessay as is the remote as I'd much rather use a smartphone app as the controller.
I would imagine this would have an edge over squeezebox in terms of sound quality as the components are first rate but no napster/spotify is a deal breaker for me.
Yeah, this ^. The Squeezebox has traditionally been aimed at a more techy, less audiophiliac crowd.
That's not to say that it produces a bad sound. The Squeezebox Touch features the same Wolfson DAC as found in many high-end CD players and streamers. It may not sound as good as the NP30, but I'd wager it's not far off, and a bargain at the price.
There is great news: The RECENT new firmware release supports SPOTIFY !! Tested this week and it works perfect using an IPad with the spotify app. Great!
Regards, Peter

Known for amazing construction, the Spring 2012 Anna Maier-Ulla-Maija collection was comprised of sheaths and ballgowns with a careful attention to detail. Inspired by "moods" the designer explained that he thought about various moods surrounding the feeling and meaning of romance when designing each of the 15 gowns in the collection. Here are five that enhanced our mood:
Bubble Hem: While the lines on the bodices are very flattering, it's the bubble hem of the full skirts that caught our eye. A popular design element over the last few years, the bubble hem makes a skirt look fuller and is a nice alternative to the traditional straight-edged hem.
Pink Underlay: The number one alternate color to white and ivory this season was white — we're sure we won't be the only ones with a Pretty in Pink editorial story this season. This soft white reengineered French floral lace is over a pale pink double charmeuse fluted undergown.
Rosegold: Embellishing this tea-length ballgown is a rosegold lochrosen embroidery. A chic alternative for the bride who likes and wants pink but not an all-over pink gown.
Lace: The most traditional wedding dress fabric, these two lace gowns are light and airy while still being constructed in a way that gives structure to the dress.
Illusion Back: Show off your sexy back while still being modest with an illusion back detail. The back of this gown has Chantilly lace with a three-button closure.

In Brooklyn, Steam and Whistles Usher in 2009
New York, NY —
It's not just about dropping crystal balls and confetti. On the Clinton Hill campus of Pratt Institute, a few hundred revelers gathered last night for a once-a-year cacophony: factory whistles, steam whistles, ship's whistles, and few the school's chief engineer made himself. Conrad Milster has been letting these sounds loose on New Year's Eve for 45 years.
MILSTER: We're just letting people blow them at random and everyone seems to have a tremendous time doing that.
REPORTER: There was also a steam calliope with 32 whistles tuned to specific notes, playing tunes such as "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and Beethoven's Ninth.

As the best prep football players in the country walked off the field Friday night, Leon McQuay III hung around.
He looked happy and relieved, and darn it all if he didn't even seem a little chatty.
Vernon Hargreaves III may have been MVP, and Alvin Bailey may have almost broken two long touchdown plays, and Sean Covington's left foot was once again strong and true, but the night belonged to him.
The Armwood safety didn't make any big plays — he nearly had two interceptions, roaming the defensive backfield like a Hawk — and he virtually disappeared from the Under Armour All-America Game at Tropicana Field at times.
But it was in those moments when he was nowhere to be found that McQuay showed what makes him exceptional.
The first time, he was presented at midfield as a finalist for the Franklin D. Watkins Memorial Trophy, which goes to a talented African-American athlete and scholar.
The second, he concluded a long and arduous recruiting process — that started in the eighth grade — by verbally committing to Southern Cal live on ESPN.
"When he came back to the sideline after that, he looked like he was feeling much better," Armwood coach Sean Callahan said. "A major load was lifted."
So yeah, it was a pretty good night for McQuay, the grandson of University of Tampa football legend Leon McQuay, playing in his final high school football game, punctuated by emphatically putting the student in student-athlete.
He's a five-star player who had one goal his last year in school: to be a 5.0 grade-point average student, too, a task he achieved despite taking three honors classes and two dual-enrollment courses.
"Man, he's a smart dude," said Armwood teammate Alvin Bailey, one of his closest friends.
"He's a special kid," said his father, Leon Jr.
When McQuay said it was about the academics — in his case the music program at USC — he meant it.
"Getting out there and visiting and seeing the academic part, the music part, and going in the studio and working on some stuff," said McQuay, "I was like, 'I'm coming here, man. I'm coming here.' "
On Jan. 9, he's going there, to lay out wide receivers and lay down beats.
As one of the highest-profile recruits in the country, and rated as one of the top three safeties, the glare has been blinding for the quiet player who never seemed all that comfortable in the spotlight.
He got his first letter in the eighth grade from Vanderbilt, after excelling at a combine for older kids.
Other offers soon followed. And the phone calls from recruiting analysts. And the interviews.
Oh, those interviews, many of which the shy McQuay preferred to do with his helmet on.
"He takes in more than he gives out," Leon Jr. said. "I'll ask him a question, and end up asking him five more questions before he answers the first one."
Never did a kid who smiles so much say so little. If you don't remember the headband he always wore, or the afro he grew to 1970 proportions, you'll always remember the braces.
But in the end, he didn't really need to say much.
He just did what he was supposed to do.
He played hard — always for his teammates, never for himself. He never let up in the classroom. He conducted himself like an adult.
And he picked a college with his long-term future in mind.
On his last night as a high school football player, Leon McQuay III reminded everyone how it's supposed to be done.

Feb. 20, 2011
By Brian Davis, Assistant Media Relations Director
LAS VEGAS, Nev. - The No. 3 Tennessee Lady Vol softball team dropped to 8-2 on the season by suffering a tough 5-0 setback to No. 18 Stanford (8-2) on Sunday afternoon at Stephanie Lynn Craig Park in Las Vegas, Nev.
The Lady Vol offense never got untracked against Cardinal pitcher Ashley Chinn as the SU hurler limited UT to just one hit and retired the last 17 batters she faced during a six-strikeout, complete-game effort.
The lone Big Orange base knock came off the bat of freshman shortstop Madison Shipman (1-for-3) during the second inning as Tennessee managed to load the bags with one out but was unable to plate a tally. UT was also undone by an uncharacteristic three miscues in the field that eventually led to a trio of Cardinal scores.
Tennessee freshman hurler Ellen Renfroe was dealt the first loss of her career (4-1) by surrendering two earned runs on four hits with a walk and a strikeout over 1.2 innings, combining two separate stints in the circle. Sophomore Ivy Renfroe permitted a single earned tally on four hits with three walks and a K over 3.2 frames, while junior Cat Hosfield allowed two base knocks and struck out one in two-thirds of an inning.
After the Lady Vol offense went down in order in the top of the first, Stanford's attack went to work immediately in the bottom half as center fielder Sarah Hassman singled back through the middle. Shortstop Ashley Hansen followed with a shot to third that ricocheted off Spigner's outstretched glove for an error. Ellen Renfroe bounced back to strikeout second baseman Jenna Rich looking before designated player Danielle Miller singled to left for an RBI as the Cardinal grabbed a quick 1-0 lead. With SU occupants at the corners, right fielder Teagan Gerhart grounded a ball to third that Spigner scooped and threw home to cut down the lead runner. First baseman Melisa Koutz fell behind in the count 0-2 before ripping a double down the left field line, improving Stanford's advantage to 2-0.
The Big Orange managed their initial base runner with one down in the top of the second as SU's Ashley Chinn hit sophomore second baseman Lauren Gibson with a pitch. Shipman stepped to the plate and ripped a sharp single through the left side of the infield, putting a pair of Lady Vols aboard and igniting a potential rally. Junior first baseman Shelby Burchell battled hard to draw a free pass to load the bases with still just one out. Unfortunately for Tennessee, a strikeout and then a first-pitch foul out outside of first left the trio stranded as a big UT scoring opportunity went for naught.
A hit batter leading off the bottom of the second ended Ellen Renfroe's day in the circle as her sister Ivy was summoned into the contest in relief. The 6-0 right hander immediately got two quick outs before walking back-to-back Cardinal hitters to pack the bases with two retired. She managed to induce a vital pop up by Miller that Shipman squeezed at short to keep Stanford from adding to its two-tally lead.
Stanford's offense left a base runner stranded in both the third and fourth innings. Meanwhile, Chinn continued to keep the Lady Vol offense in check, retiring 11 straight Tennessee hitters through the top of the fifth.
The Cardinal threatened again in the bottom of the fifth as Gerhart walked with one out and then Koutz followed with a single through the right side of the infield. With runners at first and second a bouncer by catcher Maya Burns was thrown away on a potential fielder's choice at second for an error, allowing a run to cross and make it 3-0. Following a base hit to left by pinch hitter Jamie Millwood, Hosfield was brought on to relieve Ivy Renfroe. The Murfreesboro, Tenn., native was greeted by a double off the wall in left by Corey Hanewich as two more scored for a 5-0 Cardinal advantage. Hosfield struck out Hassman swinging to conclude the frame but not before three tallies worth of damage had been added to the scoreboard.
Stanford's Chinn continued her dominance from the circle through the remainder of the contest, eventually wrapping up the victory by retiring 17 straight Lady Vol batters.
Tennessee continues its marathon 11-day road trip on Tues., Feb. 22, with a 2 p.m. PT contest against Southern Utah at the Eller Media Stadium in Las Vegas, Nev. Live stats will be available for the contest through Gametracker and periodical updates will be posted on Twitter. Check both http://twitter.com/LadyVol_Sftball and http://twitter.com/UTLadyVols for more information on Tennessee Lady Vol softball.
