February 2013
From A Factual History Of Totally Legitimate Facts Volume IX:
"Adam Savage, Wil Wheaton, and Paul and Storm founded w00tstock in the early 1930s. Originally a cover to sell snake oil and smuggle rare birds across state lines, it grew into a cultural phenomenon that crossed cultural and geographical boundaries.
"The group dissolved in 1976, when Wheaton was arrested — though not charged — for possession of a mated pair of Crowned Yellow Bottomed Egretmarmons allegedly abducted from a princess of Boobistan, with whom he was romantically linked.
"At the request of the President, the group reunited in the early 21st Century and single-handedly saved Earth from an attempted alien invasion. After repelling the would-be conquerors, the quartet reassembled w00tstock and returned it to its classical roots, entertaining nerds and curing diseases with miracle tonics."
W00tstock Founder's Night returns to SF Sketch Fest on February 1, 2013. No Muppets will be admitted after the first intermission.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court has turned away a challenge from former House Majority Leader Dick Armey and other Social Security recipients who say they have the right to reject Medicare in favor of continuing health coverage from private insurers.
The justices did not comment Monday in letting stand a federal appeals court ruling that held that there is no way for people who receive Social Security to reject Medicare benefits.
Armey, a Texas Republican, and two other former federal employees say private insurance covers more than Medicare. Two other plaintiffs are wealthy individuals who have high deductible private insurance and prefer to pay for their health care.
The case was funded by a group called The Fund For Personal Liberty, which says its purpose is to take on burdensome government regulations.

Ticket prices to increase at PNC Park
According to the Pittsburgh Tribune, ticket prices at PNC Park will soon be going up.
As it was announced recently, game day ticket prices will cost between $2-$5 more than advanced tickets.
The average cost of a ticket to a Pirates home game in 2010 was just $15.39 –league average was $26.74.
"We need to have a competitively priced product," President Frank Coonelly said. "We've gotten far behind. We need to have a sustainable, competitive team on the field. So we really need to move (ticket prices) in that (upward) direction. When? As soon as we possibly can."
"From a business perspective, I think they have to raise them," said John Clark, professor of sport management and director of the MBA program at Robert Morris University. "I've been expecting it to happen for the past couple of years. I think Pirates baseball is worth more than what we pay for it right now."
5 Comments
Wow, I did not know that tickets were so inexpensive for the Pirates. I hate to see the prices going up, but I think it's inevitable.
There was no way they could continue keeping prices that low. $25 tickets at PNC are at least $50 at every other stadium. I think they'll go up across the board for 2012, especially if the team shows some real improvement this year.
The season ticket seat I had at PNC Park in 2010 was $35 at Dodger Stadium (I used to live out there) the similar seat was around $300 bucks.
Section 316,
As the Pirates get better, they should definitly raise the ticket prices. I agree. $40 bucks for a seat right behind the Pirates dugout is a steal. As soon as the Bucs break .500, PNC will be packed.
The Pirates haven't been very good for a long time, but at least they haven't been soaking their fans just to enjoy a game at the ballpark, unlike some teams I could name.
I'm not a Pirates fan, but I love PNC Park, and I can pay a few more dollars. It's also the only ballpark my wife doesn't mind traveling to!

Out of the Cold
12 February 2013
Gabriel Thompson grabbed his black, thick-framed glasses by the tape that held them together close to his right temple. He lowered them slightly and pulled a map he had drawn on the back of a prison supply form close to his face. He put the paper down and drew an X in the middle of East 190th Street in the Bronx. Thompson then grimaced and curled his body over the visiting room table, indicating the X represented where Miguel Lopez fell after being stabbed outside 1013 E. 190th St. on August 31, 1985.

When: Jun 15th-Jul 7th 2012
Chiaroscuro is pleased to present its second large scale solo exhibition of photographer Renate Aller's work. Her new series, "dicotyledon", explores how we see nature and how we "read" photographs. The work, based on Romanticism, memory and landscape, is presented as large-scale color photographs installed to provoke a non-linear narrative. The placement of the photographs is paramount, and, just as words and phrases work together in a sentence to ascribe meaning, the images play off of each other, drawing the viewer into a "conversation" with the works.
Opening Reception, Friday, June 15, 5-7pm

(ARA) - It has become the new norm: Unmarried couples deciding to live together. In fact, the number of unmarried, opposite-sex couples who shared the same living quarters jumped by 13 percent, to 7.5 million, in 2010 over 2009, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The number of same-sex couples living together is about 620,000.
More often than not, most unmarried couples who decide to live together intend to marry at some point. It's an added step in the courtship process. Living together is perceived as a way of "testing" compatibility, and as an opportunity to establish financial stability prior to getting married.
Living together doesn't always work out as planned, however. According to the Annual Review of Sociology, 55 percent of cohabitating couples get married within five years of moving in together. In that same period, 40 percent break up.
As cohabitation has become the norm, the number of legal cases involving disputes among unmarried couples who live together has risen in proportion, according to FindLaw.com, the nation's leading website for free legal information. When an unmarried couple buys large ticket items together, including homes, and supports each other financially, trouble may emerge if they experience a difficult breakup. Because there is no legal mechanism such as divorce to help unmarried couples separate their property, they may need legal help to resolve their differences.
"You may share many things, from the toothpaste to the purchase of a new flat-screen TV," says Stephanie Rahlfs, an attorney with FindLaw.com. "Keep in mind that you're still single. You're not married yet, and in case things don't work out, you should take some steps to protect your rights and your property."
The key, according to FindLaw.com, is clear communication, up front, before you rent the moving van. So before you say "I do" to living together, consider these tips:
Set the ground rules. Living together isn't like having a roommate. It's an intimate relationship that comes with many financial and social complexities. Take time to talk about how you want the relationship to work and what you will do if it doesn't. Be clear about finances, chores, and visits from friends and family members. Put all of this into writing. Family law attorneys also recommend that unmarried couples sign a cohabitation property agreement, which is similar to a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement for couples getting married.
Think about the unexpected. Cohabitating means sharing your lives, but you're still free (and single) to opt out if it doesn't work. But what happens if your girlfriend unexpectedly becomes pregnant, your boyfriend loses his job and can't afford to pay his share of the rent, or your partner is seriously injured or becomes terminally ill? These are real possibilities that should be discussed before moving in together.
Set goals. Marriage is often the biggest elephant in the room. Most couples move in together because they think they may marry the other person. Some couples agree not to move in together until they're officially engaged. Some wait until a marriage date has been set. To avoid misunderstandings, clearly set a goal about whether you will continue the relationship or end it after a certain period of time.
Keep finances separate. Keep separate checking, savings and credit card accounts. Sit down each month and do your bills together. Be clear with each other about who pays for what.
Keep major purchases separate. If you make a major purchase such as a car and are making the monthly payments, be sure to keep the vehicle's title in your name. In the event of a breakup, this will make it easier to determine who owns what property. If you make a joint purchase such as a home, consult an attorney to create an agreement stating the terms of the ownership and responsibility for payment of the mortgage.
Don't co-sign loan applications. Your boyfriend or girlfriend may ask you to co-sign an application for a credit card or an auto loan. Don't do it. That will make you liable for the debt if you split up. Only co-sign after you have been legally married.
Do not become financially dependent upon each other. Maintain your career and keep developing your job skills in the event that the living arrangement does not work out and you find yourself living on your own again. Even though you're living together, you are under no legal obligation to support your boyfriend or girlfriend.

Every day, on several sites, I ask for people to pray for Cop to return to me. Whether or not that is wise or unwise is a moot point.
This morning I received one that says "Forget Cop and get on with your life".
He married someone else instead (ex, not God)
Quote from: HogwartsAlum on December 18, 2006, 05:38:30 PMHe married someone else instead (ex, not God)HA! I literally laughed out loud!!!!!
The prayer request boards are for other people to petition God on your behalf. If the email sender felt you should act in a different way, he/she should have prayed for God to give you wisdom or a smack upside the head, whatever.

An exciting new collaboration, which brings together story-telling, stage-design, gardening and performance.
Trans-Plantable Living Room needs you to help it happen!
Stories unearthed: community theatre workshops and oral-history interviews explore gardening stories, including how gardening practices have changed over time. The stories will be collected together into a book and be available online at Peoples' Collection Wales website.
Last week the new, revitalised, SfS board met physically for the first time. Apart from setting plans and policies for the next year, the post-Gathering meeting is a time to review and reassign roles on the board, which we duly did.
The art of storytelling has come a long way since tales were passed on from family member to family member all those years ago. And, naturally, for a medium that has adapted with the times so easily, and given that recording a story being told can be simple as pressing play on a dictaphone, it's not surprising that tales are being told through the very 21st century medium of the podcast. We round out some of the best out there, and hope that you'll be able to give them a listen sometime to discover their many delights.
With the summer months come a whole shoal of storytelling festivals, both at home and abroad. We've already taken a look at a few of those taking place, but because we want to show you the full array of what's out there (and whet your appetite a little further), here are some more events that will hopefully excite the young and the slightly less young, and inspire everyone from the wannabe teller to the old hand.
