The arcade, my friends, is not dead. A bold statement, considering the condition of arcades in places such as GameWorks or Dave & Busters. While those complexes may appear to be arcades, the corporate stench permeates them and the entertainment provided inside is more akin to a roller coaster ride than the arcades of our youth. The truth is, however, those neon lit rooms that rang with the sound of flipper hitting metal ball still exist. They are havens for those needing to spend a few precious minutes or hours dropping quarters into coin slots and challenging physics. They are rare, they are prized and they are sadly known only to a few.
Hiding away in a strip mall in the Minnesota suburb of Hopkins, SS Billiard is just such a place. It's a room that is almost frozen in time. I had the privilege of visiting SS Billiards for the first time last week and the moment I stepped through the door, it was as if I were back in the arcades I loved as a kid. Pinball machines lined the walls from various generations. There were old favorites that I loved, such as The Addams Family and The Twilight Zone. New Stern pinball games such as The Dark Knight, Spider-Man and The Lord of the Rings stood as the last men standing; champions of a classic genre too long beaten yet still fighting. Even some classic machines such as Eight Ball Deluxe and the rare Capcom machine, Big Bang Bar, were in attendance. Each stood, tempting with classic lights and sounds and the elegant beauty of a wooden surface worn from years of play. While there were a few video games in attendance, they felt strangely out of place in this pinball mecca. It's as if SS Billiards has one love and video games are simply a token gesture, as if to harken back to the 80's but not to relive them.
SS Billiards belongs to a rare breed of business. Family owned and operated since 1972, SS Billiards has stood the test of time for thirty five years and remained the place for pinball. Holding tournaments and special events, the business shows it's passion for the classic arcade in a way that very few can match. If you grew up in the days of the arcade then you simply need to experience it for yourself. Following is a quick video I shot while making my way through the arcade for the first time. It doesn't do the place justice and you'll have to excuse the rather obvious music choice but I hope it gives you a feel for what this place is.
Sadly, this arcade is in need of your help as are all arcades that one might consider "real". This establishment is family owned and as such, has no corporate backing. Your quarters pay the bills and you are needed. So, come down to SS Billiards and drop a couple of bucks or fifty on some fantastic pinball. Places such as this are rare and will only remain open with your patronage.
SS Billiards can be found on the web at www.ssbilliards.com. There you can find information on games that are on rotation, current schedule for events and tournaments along with a list of some pinball machines and arcade games that are up for sale. In addition, you can find a bit of history on this great establishment. If you live in the Twin Cities area, or even if you don't and you like to travel, I highly recommend making a stop at SS Billiards.
SS Billiards is located at 732 11th Avenue South, Hopkins, MN. Following are some pictures:

Torgo says:
We're fucking going the next time I come up!!!!!!!!
Zinswin says:
Did they have the Frank Thomas Big Hurt Baseball machine? I used to love that one. It was liberal with multiball and I could spend a long time on it for $2.
Tondog says:
Maybe there could be some kind of Robot Panic reader meetup there sometime? That would be freaking amazing.
Trickman Terry says:
Ooooh, I love it! I want in on that road trip!
Hilden says:
That's actually a great idea. That would be a great place for a meet up. Only downside is the lack of alcohol. Guess there must be a bar somewhere nearby.
Tondog says:
I'm sure there's a bar nearby.
Just let us know when to show up and I'll be there.
Jynkz says:
That is awesome! This is definitely going on my to-do list for the next time we head up to the cities next month.
Trickman Terry says:
Concidentally, this show is coming to my area next week.
I'm most likely going on Saturday.

Job Done!
Martin Neale has landed the three biggest commons from his Kent syndicate water in just two trips… his first two using the new TunaMino test baits.
Following the capture of The Big Common from his Kent syndicate water, the biggest common in the lake, Solar tackle team member Martin headed back to the venue 5 days later, and promptly landed the second and third biggest commons. In two trips, he's now landed all of the target fish he joined the venue to catch, and he only got his ticket for the lake a few weeks ago.
Martin explains: "I went down to the lake on Friday evening after work. Had a look in the Boat House Bay, which is where I landed The Big Common from a few days earlier, but someone was already in there. So, I continued round to a swim called the Clear View, which is in an arm off the main body of the lake. I fished the Friday night here, but didn't see or hear anything. When I woke on Saturday morning it didn't look good for a bite.
" I went for a walk round, but didn't see much. So an hour later I went for another walk around. In the swim to the right of one called the Helicopter (I don't know the actual swim's name), there's a bay opposite (a good 50 yards) called The Shallow Bay. The wind was pushing in to the bay and a raft of floating weed had built up in it. Looking across in to the bay I saw a fish show, I dropped my water bottle in the swim as I already had that with me and went to get the get.
"By the time I was set back up in the new swim it was about 3pm. All three rods were positioned in the bay, each with a critically balanced hook bait of the new TunaMino boilie and a Candy Floss pop-up, and each rig had a PVA bag with just three TunaMino baits in it.
"That evening I started to doze off when I heard a fish jump. It was in the right-hand side of the bay. I had a rod over there, but not that close to the bank, so I redid the rod, casting it as close to the 'scum line' where the weed was bunched up as I could get it.
"Over the next hour and a bit I had 4 takes on that one rod, the biggest fish was one they call 'The Thirty Common' (the third biggest common in the lake), which actually weighed 29lb 12oz! The others were two doubles and a 20lb 12oz common.
"That was it for the night, but I had a feeling the action would stop as the wind dropped and the weed drifted out of the bay.
"I tried to get them on the top with floaters the following morning, but with no joy. At about midday the weed started to bunch back up in the bay, but this time there were no 'shows'.
"Putting the rods back out in the bay I had another four takes, all from 1pm to 6pm. The biggest of the four this time was the sought-after Champaign Common (the second biggest common in the lake) at 31lb 14oz, with the other three being upper doubles.
"It was incredible, I'd landed the three biggest commons in the lake in a little over a week, on two, weekend trips."

1) Watch the preparation videos to prepare your conscious mind before starting The Majesty Program: AutoSuggestion Preparation.
2) Listen to each Majesty autosuggestion repeated 7 times. The bell will then sound twice to signal that it is your turn to repeat the autosuggestion (affirmation) between the bell sounds.
3) Repeat the Majesty autosuggestion between the bell sounds. It is best if you can speak the affirmation out loud, but if you are lying in bed with another person and feel self-conscious about this, then repeat it to yourself while simply moving your lips.
4) Always maintain a gentle, effortless smile during the entire Majesty Program meditation audio. This is very important because a smile will automatically create an emotional response in your body by releasing endorphins and serotonin into your system—which in turn greatly enhances the effectiveness of the meditation and your ability to internalize subconsciously the affirmations.
5) Play The Majesty Program meditation twice a day: Every evening, while lying in bed, just before going to sleep. And every morning just after waking. Repeat this process without fail for 30 days.
6) After 30 days, you can reduce the schedule to once a day, playing the meditation preferably just before going to sleep. After 60 days, once a week (minimum).
For individuals using both The Majesty Program and custom-made autosuggestion audios, we recommend using The Majesty Program at night (before falling asleep), and the custom audios in the morning (just after waking).

2017 Mazda Mazda6 Prices: MSRP vs Dealer Invoice vs True Dealer Cost
MSRP Invoice Price Destination Fee Holdback Dealer Cost
Mazda Mazda6 Prices - How Much is a Mazda Mazda6?
To avoid overpaying on a new Mazda Mazda6, shop prices online first. Get up front pricing before you walk into a dealership. We recommend the following free services;
What's New For 2017?
One of the selling points for the 2017 Mazda Mazda6 is the addition of the G-Vectoring Control System, which adds even more precision and agility to the vehicle. 2016's Technology package has been removed, and an all-new Premium package has taken its place. Multiple previously-optional features have now been made standard on the Mazda6.
Available Styles
The 2017 Mazda Mazda6 is a mid-sized sedan that comes with three trim levels. All three styles come with only front-wheel drive. Unfortunately, there is not an option for all-wheel drive.
Available Trims
This sedan comes in three different styles - the Sport, the Touring, and the Grand Touring. The Sport and Touring come with a 2.5-L 4-cylinder engine that is paired with either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. The Grand Touring comes standard with the same engine but is paired only with the 6-speed automatic transmission.
These vehicles come with many features, including pre- and post-collision safety systems, stability control, turn signal mirrors, keyless ignition, and a leather steering wheel. The automatic Touring trim features an impressive sound system with one subwoofer, 11 speakers, and Bose Premium Brand Sound and Speaker Systems.
The Grand Touring comes with 19x7.5-inch painted alloy wheels, and the automatic Touring comes with all season tires.
Driving Impressions
The Mazda6 has an engine that provides a powerful performance. The engine and transmission pairings are highly responsive and make the car feel faster than the average sedan. Handling is steady, so you will be able to easily make turns and keep a firm grip in all kinds of road conditions. While the ride can seem a little bit stiff, it is overall very comfortable. The 17-inch wheels give a slightly smoother ride than the 19-inch wheels given their 2-inch size difference.
Fuel Economy
With both the manual and auto transmission, you will receive good fuel economy from the Mazda6. The manual transmission garners about 28 combined mpg (24 city/34 highway) while the automatic transmission gets about 29 mpg combined (26 city/35 highway). If you opt for the GT Premium Package, you can get a combined mpg of 30, which is truly impressive for a mid-sized sedan.
The 2017 Mazda Mazda6 is a great family vehicle that doesn't feel clunky like some mid-sized sedans. Instead, you get the feeling that you are driving a sportier sedan without compromising comfort or safety.
Formula for Calculating Dealer Cost:
- Example: Base Mazda Mazda6 invoice price + the dealer Invoice price of options + destination - Holdback = Total Dealer Cost.
- What is Holdback? A hidden amount that manufacturers give back to a dealer. It is a percentage of the MSRP or the Invoice price.
Total Dealer Cost - Rebate and Incentive + Taxes / Licensing Fees = True Dealer Cost. (You can get rebates and incentives here.)
Note: All Mazda Mazda6 MSRP, invoice and dealer cost dollar figures above are approximate amounts. Prices are subject to change without notice.
A note about rebates: Most rebates are subtracted from the "on the road" figure. In most cases, you can have the rebate if you are arranging your own financing or you are paying cash. If you decide to use the manufacturer's low interest financing, you do not usually get the rebate. Ask your dealer for details.

KD 7 35k Degrees
July 12th is the release of the KD 7 35k Degrees for a retail of $150. They are a new colorway for a newer line of sneakers for Kevin Durant. They're a bit of a cross between the KD 4 and KD 6, featuring mango color flynit technology all on the front including the tongue, the grey rubber strap in the middle, mango rubber back, yellow soles, air bubble, grey midsole, and silver and black tiger stripes on the nike swoosh on the front side with mango colored striped yellow laces. They will sell from eastbay, finishline, nike, footaction, champs and footlocker, and even shoepalace. We can assume they're general. But these are slightly favorable worldwide, and although we can't expect an immediate fast sell out, eventually later on they have a potential of selling out, maybe in a week to a month. It's possible some stores can sell out of these quick while others stores can still have them, even online. The overall value of these will be $160-180, but hype price that resellers can set them within the first few weeks could very well be $200-220.
Information are subjected to change. This article may be updated the closer we get to the release date. Registered users are automatically emailed an updated release reminder email 2-3 days before the release date. Upon reading this article you agree that we cannot 100% guarantee accuracy due to various factors.

Yesterday Turbine released the first build of the Update 15 Beta. As always, I headed to the test server to explore the landscape. This time though I found something I did not expect.
Aside from Pelargir, the landscape seems extremely similar to Western Gondor which is a big disappointment. It is Beta so things could change but everything appears to be in a near-complete state based on the level of detail in the zones. This similarity is most apparent in the landscape itself which looks nearly identical to the last part of Gondor.
The final-looking maps indicate that this is basically how the landscape will appear in the final version. While the landscape itself is not a disappointment and looks really good, the fact that it is extremely similar to previous areas is a big disappointment as believable diversity of landscape has been a strength of LOTRO the last several years. Sadly this strength seems to be absent from this build of the Beta.

How are these tied in with St. Valentine's Day? Was there really someone named "Valentine"? What did he do to have a holiday named after him?
There are many stories about the origin of St. Valentine's day. We do know there was a man by the name of Valentine, that he was killed for being a Christian during the time of the persecutions, and that he died around the year 270 A.D. Other than that, stories about his life are pure speculation.
The version of the story I like has to do with a bitter, mean Emperor named Claudius. He was the leader of a large army, but his soldiers were getting tired of fighting. They wanted to go home to their wives, sweethearts, and families. So Claudius devised a plan that he thought would keep the soldiers focused on fighting battles. He sent out a decree over all his lands that the soldiers were not to get married or become engaged to be married. He thought, "Heh, heh, this will really keep them focused on wiping out the enemy and we will be winners!"
But his plan didn't work well at all. He failed to realize that love is stronger than any decree.
The soldiers were able to go behind the back of the Emperor and find a priest who would marry them in secret, still very legally. His name was Valentine. Couples came from all over to be married by him. However, the Emperor discovered this little scheme and had him thrown in prison and sentenced to die. While in prison, Valentine become friends with the jailer's daughter. It is said that she was healed through his prayers. On the day he was to be put to death, on February 14, he left a message for the jailer's daughter, signed "From your Valentine."
So St. Valentine's legacy lives on. It is a special day of showing even more love and affection than usual to those around us. This may include sending cards and flowers and candy to those we love.

There is a lecture/Q&A at HUFS this Thursday and I've been invited. Yi is one of my favorite three Korean authors, with tremendous range in his writing:
An Appointment With My Brother
Our Twisted Hero
The Poet
Twofold Song
More about Yi here at the irreplaceable KTLIT^^
Now all I need is someone who speaks Korean to tag along, or I'm going to be asking a question in hideous phonetic Korean. LOL
And then humiliate myself by asking for an autograph, if there is an opportunity.

There is something very romantic about light by fire and the modern oil lamp captures this sentiment without sacrificing contemporary aesthetic. It takes on a more sleek silhouette that does away with the typical bulbous glass and equally stout and rotund base. By stripping away all unnecessary adornment, the modern oil lamp has a long, cylindrical shape that allows people to enjoy the flame itself more than anything else.
Designed by Castor Design, the modern oil lamp is finished with a black chrome exterior that lends it a bit of an edge as well. It was created in collaboration with Harnisch Lamps, which happens to be the oldest gas lamp manufacturer in Canada. A lighting that would stand the test of time, the modern oil lamp can be more eco-friendly than electric versions.

President Barack Obama is leaving office on a high note. Many people might not remember what it was like when Obama took office in January 2009. The Bush Recession was underway, and America was losing 779,000 jobs per month. Stores were closing. Restaurants were empty. And our treasury was also empty (in fact, trillions in debt) from Bush's disastrous Iraq War. Obama, with no help from the Republicans, turned things around to the point where he will be turning over a country that, by most objective measures, is doing very well. Let's take a look at some of those numbers, so that we will have a comparison for the future:
Economic Growth — After an economy that shrunk under George W. Bush, President Obama turned Gross Domestic Product growth positive after just six months, in large part to his Stimulus which, you may recall, received no Republican support. U.S. economic growth remains steady to this day. Similarly, new service industries orders increased 4.6 percent last month to their highest level since August 2015.
Jobs — Under President Obama, the U.S. economy has created over 15 million new private sector jobs. The unemployment rate has fallen to 4.6 percent, way down from the 7.8 percent George W. Bush handed over in January 2009, or the 10 percent that we had a few months later as the Bush Recession hit its depths. Moreover, jobless claims under President Obama just fell to a 43-year low.
Stock Market — During George W. Bush's term, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 25 percent. The S&P 500 did even worse, falling 40 percent. And the NASDAQ fell by a whopping 48 percent. Americans who had stocks in their IRAs, 401Ks and other retirement accounts suffered badly. In contrast, during President Obama's two terms, the Dow is up over 139%, and has hit record high after record high.
Deficit — Under President Obama, the federal deficit has plunged two-thirds, from the $1.4 trillion in George W. Bush's last (2009) budget to $458 billion for fiscal year 2017. Obama is a small spender compared to numerous presidents..
Healthcare — Due to the Affordable Care Act, 20 million more Americans now have health insurance than under George W. Bush, bringing the portion of insured to a record 89 percent. Moreover, such Americans have extra protections, such as the prohibition on insurance companies penalizing or refusing to cover people with preexisting conditions. Lifetime limits on coverage are gone. And children can stay on their parents' healthcare plans until age 26.
Gasoline prices — Since so many Americans drive, including for work, gasoline prices are something we all feel. Average gas prices right now are under $2.50 per gallon. Such prices have decreased since 2008, even more so if you factor in inflation. While many factors affect gas prices, some that we can attribute to Obama include ending the Iraq War, promoting hybrid and electric vehicles, and strengthening vehicle fuel economy standards.
Consumer Confidence — Just days ago, the Conference Board announced that the Consumer Confidence Index hit a 13-year high.
Auto sales — U.S. auto sales hit a record high in December. The previous record was set in 2015. These numbers validate President Obama's 2009 auto industry bailout. Furthermore, strong auto sales also have a ripple effect on the economy and employment, as parts suppliers and workers do better when U.S. auto makers sell more vehicles.
Environment — In December 2015, President Obama helped push through a historic climate change agreement between 195 countries. The Obama administration also promoted clean renewable energy, such as by permitting solar power installations on federal lands. As a result, solar and wind power have come way down in price, and are responsible for significant job growth, as well as decreasing greenhouse gas pollution, increasing our national security, and lowering the chances that America would need to get involved in a foreign war over oil. Speaking of which:
Foreign Wars — President Obama has brought home more than 90 percent of the 180,000 troops who were fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. And Obama brought Osama bin Laden to justice, after George W. Bush once again took his eyes off the ball.
This is but a partial list of President Obama's accomplishments. Obama will no doubt touch on these and other achievements in his farewell speech to the nation on January 10. Donald Trump thinks he can do better? We'll be watching.

As an occasional feature on TELOSscope, we highlight a past Telos article whose critical insights continue to illuminate our thinking and challenge our assumptions. Today, Linas Jokubaitis looks at Carl Schmitt's "The Source of the Tragic" from Telos 72 (Summer 1987).
In "The Source of the Tragic," Carl Schmitt developed an original interpretation of The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark rooted in his sociological understanding of the relationship between art and contemporary politics in Shakespeare's tragedy. According to the German jurist, one can fully understand and appreciate this masterpiece only by taking into consideration the concrete political situation at the end of the reign of the Tudor dynasty and the intense struggles for legitimacy and authority in which Shakespeare created his theatrical works.
Schmitt's approach has to be understood as polemically directed against what he regarded as the extreme division of labor in academia. In his assessment of the academy, the perspectives of literary historians must be enriched by those of political historians. It would be a mistake to disregard the political circumstances in which Hamlet was written, because the destinies of Mary Stuart and James I are more closely intertwined with the storyline in Shakespeare's tragedy than the majority of his readers might have thought.
Schmitt argues that we cannot understand Hamlet properly if we hold onto a philosophy of art by which the work of art is something to be understood on its own terms, as a completely autonomous creation of a sovereign genius. In The Concept of The Political, Schmitt wrote: "that art is a daughter of freedom, that aesthetic value judgment is absolutely autonomous, that artistic genius is sovereign—all this is axiomatic of liberalism." His analyses of the relationships between art and politics have to be understood as a critique of what he judges to be "axiomatic of liberal" thought.
One could maintain the liberal approach to art could vary with regard to specific genres of art. The liberal analytical strictures can be deployed to interpret a lyric poem, however, they should not be applied to the study of Hamlet: "the freedom to create, which provides the lyric poet with such free play with respect to reality, cannot be conferred upon other types and forms of literary creation. The subjectivity of the lyric poet corresponds to a different type of creative freedom than that of the objectivity of the epic writer and the dramatist" (135).
Schmitt argues that audiences get a distorted understanding of Shakespeare's drama when they see it as an autonomous creation that is completely unfettered by its origins in specific political circumstances. This perspective is inseparable from his explanation on what constitutes the source of the tragic. Schmitt writes about the "surplus value" of the tragic, which "lies in the objective reality of tragic action itself, in the enigmatic involvement and entanglement of indisputably real people in the unpredictable course of indisputably real events. This is the basis of the seriousness of tragic action which, being impossible to fictionalize, or relativize, is also impossible to play. All participants are conscious of an ineluctable reality which no human mind has conceived—a reality externally given, imposed and unavoidable" (136–37).
For Schmitt the source of the tragic is to be found not in the mechanics or aesthetics of a theatrical play, but rather in the concrete struggles of political reality. A work of art reaches the level of the tragic by confronting the full scope of its historical situation. In the Attic tragedy, the source of the tragic is to be found in what was still a "living myth" for the Greeks. The Greek tragedians could rely on their myths to reach the element of the tragic, because their common knowledge of myth was an "external present" shared by them and their audience.
The tragic core of Shakespeare's masterpiece is not to be found in his subjectivity. This is the reason why Schmitt is opposed to simplistic psychological explanations of Hamlet. The tragic element of reality in Hamlet is to be found in the "external present," which for Shakespeare and his audience was the fate of James I as the successor to Queen Elizabeth I and the monarch of both England and Scotland in the early 1600s.
According to Schmitt, the audience of London would have seen James I in Hamlet and immediately recognized the parallels between the play and contemporary political events. The source of the tragic in Hamlet is to be found in the intrusion of the historical situation of the year 1600 into the play. The murder of the king and the marriage of the queen to the murderer would have been much more than just a literary invention to the London audience at the beginning of the seventeenth century. Schmitt's detailed explanation of the complicated relationship between the theatrical script for Hamlet and the complex politics of the time in the English and Scottish courts can be found in his book Hamlet or Hecuba: The Intrusion of the Time into the Play.
A tragedy cannot be created ex nihilo. The element of the tragic can only be exploited when it resonates in the concretely lived historical realities of the author and his audience. No amount of artistic inventiveness can conjure up tragic action out of nothing: "one can weep for many things. Many things are sad and melancholy. But tragedy originates only from a given circumstance which exists for all concerned—an incontrovertible reality for the actors and the audience. All invented fate is no fate at all. The most inspired creation is useless here. The core of the tragic action, the source of genuine tragedy, is something so irrevocable that no mortal can invent it, no genius can compose it" (143).

Very Cool stuff, still I got some notes
For the creators.
Guys! You have perfect visual art (at least next to perfect) Your script is also done very well, as the screen play. BUT please pay attention to vocal recording! The quality here is too important, and it was not very good. I suggest you use noise reducing (even Audacity allowes you to do one). Your voice actors are both well and good, but it's better to make several takes of one phrase untill it is perfect in one piece then making one out of several segments (word by word).
And another important thing to such a great poduction (and I mean it: what you are doing and what you are about to reach BOTH IS GREAT and deserves more work) is MUSIC. Just add some ambient background to it and this will give you more wathcers and listners!
Good job! All the best to you! 5/5 + 10/10! Sorry for my bad english
loved it.
Not sure if this applies but i do believe in the forces of good will, an example in my point of view is karma. i give, i care, and i selflessly try to put forth the needs of others on a whim over mine when possible. I've experienced on many occasions where karma has given back and have never felt more attuned with some outside force i cant explain; but i lead a happy life knowing that i do good and generally feel genuine about it later; Don't get me wrong, i don't mostly expect good things to happen in return, they just do and i'm thankful to what outside force is behind it or maybe its just coincidence; who knows? anyway loved this segment, you two speak so harmoniously wonderful together in unison. Oh by the way, will you talk about karma in one of the parables? It would be great to hear your perspective of that!
thanks again jordan and Vanessa!
I don't think Karma comes up in a parable, but that is a topic i would like to discuss :D
Pretty good, but...
Personally I think you should stay with Spirit Science. It's really disappointing to wait months for a new video, and then find out it's two minutes long. I know you're putting a lot more work into the new videos, which is awesome (they've really gotten a lot better), and I know you need to have a life, but a little parable is just so anti-climactic. My friends and I love your videos, and this one was good, but I think you should do more Spirit Science.
This was still good though, don't hate me. :3
Hey JD
This is the first I've actually seen of your work here on newgrounds. However, when I first saw one of your video's of the SS series involving patchman I thought to myself - Hey, this 'must' be coming from newgrounds! Fun stuff. Nice video, that one patchkid still laying out on the beach reaching out to the sunset... How has your work generally been received here on NG? I could only imagine, comparing it to the myriad flood of other mindless humor. Oh well, keep up the good work. In La'Kech.
It's interesting, it goes up and down really. There's people who dig it, and then the other half which just spams hate stuff. So far, this one's been pretty good though! With Spirit Science there's room to argue because they can just say "it's bullshit!" but Patch Parables is just philosophies on life and love and stuff, so i feel it'll be a little better ;)
if all material things I have is a sandcastle wouldn't it be harsh for someone to destroy it? I mean it's like some arsonist arsoned my apartment and got my wife & kids burned as well? In the face of death it means nothing but seriously - should we be nonchalant in the face of everything?
are you sharing every material thing and live happily with greedy and evil people?
I am not evil, nor greedy but just an opportunist so it's not that painful which that I ask.
So would you grab me a beer while I kiss your girlfriend?
Haha, you have a point, but i feel you're looking at the message a little bit TOO literally. I suggest looking at it as part of a whole, of what life on earth is like and what you're capable of.
Further, kicking over a sandcastle is not at all like an arsonist burned your apartment and killed your wife and kids...

In Others' Words: Home
"A good home must be made, not bought."
~Joyce Maynard, American author
To acquire a home, there's usually a transaction — a sale — of some sort.
But wait a minute.
Do you live in a home? Or have you merely purchased a house? Foundation, roof, walls, rooms … all these things make up a house.
What transforms a house into a home?
The people dwelling there.
The passage of time.
The memories created. One. Moment. At. A. Time … until they tumble into years encompassing lifetimes.
Home. That place they say you can't go back to — but that you carry in your heart always, for better, for worse.
In Your Words: What transforms a house into a home? Is there one family tradition that will always say "You're home" to you? Or that says "Welcome to our home" when someone visits your house?

I agree, Beth. It's all about the people. And the laughter. 🙂

We had a crazy transition year about five years ago where our whole family basically slept on mattresses on the floor, expecting my husband's co. to move us any day. Any day turned into 365 days. We learned a lot about what makes a home during that year.

You and Rob have the art of establishing a true home down more than most couples I know. And one day you'll continue pouring love, wisdom and fun into grandchildren, as I love to do.

I love that picture!! This is a wonderful post. Home…..more than how four wall are decorated. Our rooms are decorated with laughter and memories. Game nights. Movie nights. Laughter and chatter around the dinner table. Kids running around the "round about" to work off extra energy. These are some of what make up our home. Thanks for making me think about what make a home.
October 19, 2011, 8:01 am /
Family, laughter and old movies. That's what tells me I'm home. That and the fact that someone in the family always feels the need to whip out, "Awww, home sweat home." And yes, I typed "sweat" on purpose. I drew a picture once for my mom to welcome her home from something…not so good with the spelling at that point in my life!
October 19, 2011, 8:02 am /
Wow, horrible job explaining the "home sweat home" story. I meant to say, I drew my mom a picture and included the caption "home sweat home." The picture and accompanying misspelling lives in infamy in the Tagg household…

Believe it or not, I followed your first explanation, Melissa. 🙂 Love hearing traditions and memories from families. 🙂

Home reminds me of unconditional love, security, and music. There was always music in our home growing up. It still plays an integral part of my life thanks to their wonderful love for that art form. Thanks for your wonderful words today, Beth.

As I said in reply to you on Keli's blog–Home is where you hang your heart. My house is old, creaky and definitely not a cover spread in Better Homes & Garden, but we welcome and love with open arms and hearts. I have a picture sitting on the bookcase by my chair that reads "Home is where your story begins."
October 19, 2011, 3:05 pm /
I'm such a homebody. I love where I live because it's where my nearest and dearest lives, too. I moved lotsa times growing up, and I enjoy the feeling of community now that my hubby and I have put down roots.

Electrical current between Saturn and its moon discovered
Ion beam seen by camera appears at exceptionally high energy, between 30,000 & 80,000 electron volts.
London: An electrical current running between Saturn and its moon Enceladus that creates an observable emission on the ringed planet has been discovered by the scientists working with data from NASA's Cassini mission.
Don Mitchell, Cassini science team co-investigator from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, first observed the current connection as a strong "bull's-eye" emission in the middle of images snapped by the APL-built ion and neutral camera (INCA) on Cassini.
"The ion beam seen by the camera appears at exceptionally high energy, between about 30,000 and 80,000 electron volts, surprising for an interaction with such a small moon," said Mitchell, co-author of a paper on the research.
This planet-moon connection also happens at Jupiter; Io, Europa and Ganymede all produces visible auroral footprints.
The ion beam set the stage for APL's Abigail Rymer, a lead author of the study and a Cassini team scientist, to find evidence of a very strong co-aligned electron beam in Cassini plasma spectrometer data.
"I immediately pulled up the electron data and, sure enough, there was a very strong electron beam propagating away from Saturn toward Enceladus," said Rymer.
"It was actually a fairly rare opportunity to capture that, since when Cassini flies close to a moon we are generally looking at the moon -- not away from it," added Rymer.
The electrons Rymer discovered were of sufficient energy that they could stimulate an observable auroral output on the planet, a glowing spot formed the same way as the Earth's northern lights – with electrons precipitating into the ionosphere. At Earth, however, the electrons come from interplanetary space; at Saturn they represent an enormous current system looping through Enceladus all the way back to Saturn, more than 150,000 miles away.
Two weeks after the initial observations, with Cassini flying at higher latitudes, the ultraviolet imaging spectrograph captured three images of Saturn's ionosphere that included a visible glowing spot at exactly the expected location.
The finding has been published in the journal Nature.

text: Attachment disorder is basically something found to start typically in young children between 6 months to 3 yrs in age. This is where the child does not form typical relationships with caregivers. It can be caused by numerous reasons like abuse or neglect or even from bouncing around too much from one person to another and never learning how to form those bonds of trust.

"And they lived happily ever after" is the classic once-upon-a-time tale. I became a fan of romance novels for many reasons including the sensual portrayals, the blend of historical facts with fiction, strong heroes and heroines, and the happily ever after endings.
However, when I began writing my romance stories, I wasn't sure how to get to that happily ever after until I got to know the characters, their conflicts, the different elements being used including the paranormal or the historical or a mix of both. As a writer I found myself on the journey along with the hero and heroine in finding their "happily ever after", and at the end I generally felt the "ah" moment as well as a little sadness like bidding good friends farewell after spending some time together. If you're a writer, I think you'll understand. If you're a reader, I think you'll understand too. I've indulged in books where I could not put them down, and when they ended I sat clutching the book awhile and felt that sense of satisfaction too.
In my latest book, A Dance Out of Time, I got to know my heroine Georgina Claythorne, the teenage ghost hunter, a little more and wanted her to not only deal with the haunting of her family's bed and breakfast in Ocean Grove, New Jersey, a shore town which I've come to know and love, but I wanted Georgina to feel that "happy ever after" if only for the time until another story. It takes work, struggle for the characters and the writer, but it is satisfying!
Happy readings!

How to Choose a Sailing Route?
Choosing a sailing route should not represent a problem.
You should try to see as much as possible of your chosen destination (especially if you are visiting it for the first time) as well as enjoy sailing as much as possible.
Get acquainted with the destination before leaving - read guide books, google it or ask the people from your charter agency about it. However, you should really follow just one rule - your own preferences.
Getting advice on routes
It is not necessary to have a set sailing route once you get to your charter base to take over the boat. You can always discuss the route with your skipper, if you are getting one. If you are not getting a skipper, let the charter base staff advise you on the interesting routes.
However, if you cannot decide on the route yourself, or simply do not feel like it, charter agencies have already made sailing routes. These suggested sailing routes are made for periods of 7 or 14 days and are represented in a graphic form. You do not have to stick to these routes, you can change them according to your wishes and weather conditions.
Duration of routes and daily sailing
When choosing the sailing route keep in mind that the duration of a route is one week minimum. However, it is possible to charter a boat for less or more than a week in the off season (second half of autumn, winter, first half of spring).
It is recommended to do 3 to 6 hours of sailing per day, or some 15 to 25 NM. You should also keep in mind the fuel consumptions which depends upon the weather conditions and boat size and type. A sailboat consumes 5 to 12 litres fuel per hour, and catamaran from 7 to 12 litres per hour.


text: Anyone have any adviceon how to play the mental game? It seems like, even if I'm playing the best tennis of my life, my mind still creeps up on me during matches. Like when I'm playing my dad, I would be up 4-2, pulling ahead and then I lose 4 games in a row to lose 6-4. Or I would be playing with one of my friends, I would be up 4-1 and then let him come back to 6-5 before I regain composure and win 7-6. You might think immediately, I give up, but I don't know why that happens. I want to win, I know I can win, but yet I can't. It's especially prevelant when I am playing someone someone who is equal or better than me. Even if I know for sure I can win a match, and I'm playing better than them that day, something just happens to me and I lose the match. And another problem I have, is that sometimes I lose my strokes. I literally would forget how to play tennis. This past year, for about 2 or 3 months all I could do was slice the ball, i LITERALLY could not hit a flat shot, or any of my normal shots. But then eventually, I get them back even better. (And yes, I tried to lay off of tennis and be relaxed, that didn't help much) I want to get "The Inner Game of Tennis" or "Winning Ugly" but I want to see if I can fix this myself first.

Mine is not being able to have a deep/Intelligent conversation with a guy
Most Helpful Guy
These are the big ones.
Drug use (caffeine excluded, of course)
Cruelty/Bad tempered.
Being really bad with kids. Nasty with them.
I had a girlfriend who kept claiming that she loved kids, and was amazing with them. Then I saw her scream at a friend's two year old who spilled a drink by accident - just turned me right off. I mean, the fact that the kid (at that age especially) was working with a regular heavy glass mug and doing good at handling it (no sippy cup), minus the little spill (understandable), I was a bit proud of him, and especially at a time where it was past his bedtime, and he was behaving awesomely... just... I was embarrassed to be around her. And I apologized to the kid and his mom (when she was away), and tried to make him understand that he was doing really well and acting like a big kid, and I was proud of him.
Being selfish more often than not.
Being a pathological liar. Cheating. All of these have to do with trust.
Stubbornness with lying. If you can't give up eating something that I'm seriously allergic to... As silly as it might sound, if you're that addicted to, say, your peanut butter candies, then don't date a guy who is deathly allergic to it, especially when you have seen some of what it does to him.
I like chocolate OK, but if my future hypothetical wife had a deathly airborne allergy to it, well, It'd be gone. Out of the house. (Now, I might get some when she is on vacation away from me for a week, but other than that, it's gone). I'm not that dependent on anything to hurt my future wife if it makes her that sick.
Someone who's slept around a lot. 1) I don't want to run the risk of STD's. 2) Just psychologically, I don't want to be compared in that way.

Sheridan, Wyoming (PressExposure) July 08, 2008 -- Jack Russell Terriers are a wonderful breed that can bring fun and excitement to any family. They can also bring with them an attitude and special needs that some families may not enjoy. They are a hunting breed with a terrific personality, but they are high maintenance and will take command of any household and the dogs that you already have.
Don and Kellie Rainwater of Sheridan, Wyoming has written a new book, âThe Jack Russell Terrier: Canine Companion or Demon Dog,â to help potential Jack Russell owners decide whether the breed will fit their family and their lifestyle.
The book does not put down the breed at all and actually promotes Jack Russells. The purpose of the book is to reduce the number of Jack Russells that end up in shelters or rescues because families will buy a Jack and then realize that the breed does not match their familyâs dynamics.
The book explains everything the potential Jack Russell owner should know including training, personality traits, and even how to show this tenacious breeds. The breed is built for speed and agility competition with Jack Russells is a competitive sport. If you want to show your Jack, this book will tell you why.
The book will also explain the rich history of the Jack Russell and how the breed has become the popular dog that it is today.
C. Eversole, an amazon.com book reviewer wrote, âThis is a great book to have for those who are considering a Jack Russell and even those who already have this breed of dog. The book is easy to follow and read and gives many tips on training, dealing with behavior issues and also for simply handling life with a Jack Russell. It is always important to do research before getting a particular breed of dog, and this is a good place to start. For those who already have a Jack Russell, this would be great to keep around. It'd be a great gift for Jack Russell owners, too, as these dogs can be quite challenging at times.
If you own a Jack Russell or are thinking of buying the breed, this book is a must read. You can find the title at http://dkrainwater.com and also can find Jack Russell products such as watches, coffee mugs, t-shirts, and more.

Title Outsourcing Can Be Time-Consuming and Unproductive.
In today's business and economic climate, title outsourcing in areas such as the mortgage industry is now vitally important.
If used effectively, it is one of the processes that has the ability to transform your business, by reducing overhead costs.
Independent mortgage professionals, and small to medium-sized businesses now have the ability to be more profitable, as the use of title outsourcing can be very cost-effective.
Having an in-house title search department can be an expensive proposition for any small business, and title outsourcing can be a suitable alternative.
The lending industry is highly competitive, although being segmented. The internet has leveled the playing field by making a wider range of resources more readily available to a larger number of people and businesses. It is no longer necessary to compete with bigger financial institutions , that are backed with larger financial resources. Smaller businesses can now find and establish niches in segments of the markets.
With services such as title outsourcing, the costs associated with searches are greatly reduced to make the process much more cost-effective, and they can contribute to your business profitability
The total cost of a title search is estimated be two thousand five hundred dollars, and there may be additional costs involved, if you have employees involved in your own in-house title search department. Additional costs can include insurance coverage, training, taxes and other essential maintenance costs.
Title outsourcing will also eliminate some of the costs associated with retirement benefits and pension contributions, but it is important to remember that there are still costs associated with the use of the service. However, the benefits of using title outsourcing services, can greatly outweigh any of the costs that may be involved.
Outsourcing the service to companies with the ability to execute searches in bulk, is not only cost-effective, but also greatly improves response times, which can be a measure of the quality of service that you provide.
Another great advantage to using title outsourcing, is that is the service is available continuously. Information is now readily available and can be accessed in fractions of a second on a 24-hr basis. The remarkable speed at which information can now be processed, means that the time spent in searches can be greatly reduced and by contracting the service of a reliable and dependable partner, your business becomes much more productive.
Your business can now be virtually operating for longer hours, without any additional costs. There are very few reasons why small business involved in lending, cannot avail themselves of the use and advantages offered by title outsourcing.
The most important part of outsourcing this service is finding the right partner to to do the job properly, and there are some important steps involved in choosing the right provider.
You can use the internet to search for outsourcing and the kind of services that you 're looking to outsource. There are a number of web -based trade journals that can be of use , as they provide a lot of information on outsourcing providers, but due diligence is highly recommended, as the information published on the internet can be inaccurate and misleading.

Absolutely well put Dan. Furthermore..if they do charge anything, the current price is way too high. It should be 20 bucks a year not a month!! What the heck. I dropped them. They used to complain that "all" of their money came from advertising and that the cost we paid covered the massive amount of money it took to print and deliver. Well….if you don't have that massive cost now…can't you just make money from the advertisers?
Thanks Rocky. The problem I have with what I would call "generalist" papers like the Herald charging as much as they do is that what they're reporting isn't all that proprietary. Their claim is that they have a special perspective on the communities surrounding Chicagoland, but it's not like other sources like the Tribune, for example, won't be reporting on it if it's a significant enough story. And any kind of Chicago-related story? Forget about it. If I want to learn about what's going on with the Chicago Bulls, I can turn to any one of a myriad of news outlets and get that content – The Tribune, Sun-Times, ESPNChicago.com, you name it. The Herald doesn't "own" that story and while they have good columnists, they're not the only ones.
In contrast, it's easier for a paper such as Crain's Chicago Business to charge for what I believe is truly PREMIUM content. They are easily the best source for robust, in-depth reporting on the news of Chicago business, they publish quality industry lists, have a strong YouTube channel and host good business events. There's a lot there worth paying for because it's exclusive. Point being that the money's worth it for specialized content and rarely is it worth it for generalized stuff you can get anywhere. I just think the generalists are, more often than not, kidding themselves with a business model for charging as much as they do for news that can be had from many other sources.
